00:00 Always, we'll do Monday.
00:02 It's just again, I'm trying to, if I could put us 50 feet below sea level,
00:07 because that stadium in Buffalo is 50 feet below sea level, 1972, $30 million.
00:13 All right, it's been named four different times.
00:16 I do it.
00:17 And so next week, we'll hear, just every detail matters.
00:24 If every detail matters on the field, then every detail matters around the field,
00:31 in the facility, in the locker room, in the parking lot.
00:34 I mean, you just become maniacal with preparation.
00:38 And every once in a while, someone has a good idea and
00:42 then we just add it, like that sign or those.
00:45 But I don't know myself, I'm 59.
00:51 Monday Night Football wasn't only the game you got to see, but as a kid,
00:55 your parents wouldn't let you stay up for the second half unless I had to take a nap.
01:00 But the other thing is, it was the only time we all saw highlights.
01:04 Like we didn't really have a grasp as to the other games until you had that
01:11 two minute highlight at halftime.
01:14 So I can remember being able to stay up for
01:15 the halftime highlights and then having to go to bed.
01:18 But Monday Night Football, that was huge.
01:22 And we have access to so many more games now.
01:27 But anyway, everyone, yeah, that's culture.
01:31 [COUGH] And that's important, it's everything.
