00:00I was driving on the highway, and I don't know if it was safe or not, but I gave out
00:08a loud yell and scream of just excitement, of just, you know, it brings a bunch of clarity
00:15to the offseason.
00:16It brings a bunch of different things to the offseason, and I'm really excited about obviously
00:21the Bears and this org and being able to make this happen and keep Ben Johnson as our coach
00:26for a long time.
00:27I could see the competitiveness in his eyes and the fire in his eyes, and it was really
00:33cool seeing that, because it was actually the first time that we talked, I know.
00:36After games, I tried to go find him and shake his hand at least, after our games and things
00:42like that.
00:43I think he ran off.
00:44I think he knew it was better not to probably shake my hand after the game and those moments,
00:49but yeah, no, I'm super excited for this organization and everything to come.
00:54The prank call.
00:55The prank call was great PR, but no.
00:58Yeah, so actually Ted and all of them, once we got off the phone, they sent me his number,
01:03so I knew it was the right number at that time, and he actually FaceTimed me, but I
01:10was driving, but he FaceTimed me and then sent me a picture of his face, because he
01:13also heard of the prank call, but like I said, I think the prank call was great PR.
01:19I don't feel no ill will towards anything with that, so I'm super excited, like I said.
01:27Being able to bring the accountability, being able to bring the discipline, like you said,
01:31up there on the podium.
01:33If guys are stepping out of line or not being in line, and not just with him and things
01:37like that, but with the team, and you're not doing the right things, you got to be put
01:46out on blast in front of the whole team, because that shows the accountability.
01:50That shows the discipline that he talked about up there.
