00:00Well, of course, last year, like we say, a little bit of a cult hero type following for
00:08DeVito in the New York area.
00:11And basically when he won those couple games, his face was everywhere that you turned.
00:18You saw Tommy DeVito.
00:19He does not expect that to be the case this time.
00:23He just wants to stick to playing football.
00:25Yeah.
00:26I mean, like I said, like last year was a good story and all.
00:29That's kind of like how it happened, you know, all the fun and games like outside was
00:33it was fun.
00:34It was last year.
00:35I'm kind of over that.
00:36I'm sticking to football now.
00:37Not that I wasn't before, but really focused on that.
00:39The external stuff will be, you know, on pause.
00:41If I already had talks with everybody around me, like my inner circle, like it is going
00:46to stay very tight and make sure that everything is about production.
00:51It was way better when it was fun because the season's over.
00:56And if he wins a bunch of games, all it's going to do is hurt them.
01:01That is that is true.
01:03Do you think another reason maybe why they didn't make him the backup after last year
01:09and they signed Drew Locke is because he had so much popularity and he did so much stuff
01:15off the field that maybe the team was like, listen, we just that's not you say it all
01:20the time.
01:21The backup quarterback can't be more popular than your starting quarterback.
01:26I just can't be exact.
01:28But like that, maybe that was part of it.
01:30And now they've kind of given him another chance here.
01:31And they were probably like, listen, we want you to be a football player.
01:36Let's not do the fresh mozzarella hit with stew or go do the comedy club and go do all
01:42these other things.
01:43Like, let's just play football.
01:45We think he got some ability and show us that you can do that.
01:48I think maybe a little bit of that was was said here, too.
01:51Yeah, I believe it.
01:52I think there's, you know, it goes back to Sutru and everything like the guy.
02:00Precisely.
02:01Yeah.
02:02There's no man.
02:03They just weren't having it.
02:04We're not having the help showing up.
02:08Everyone else in the starting quarterback and the franchise can't have the image of
02:14some guy selling fresh mozzarella down at the stews.
02:18You can't have it.
02:22You can't have it.
