00:00I think football showed me just the amount of effort and time it takes to become great
00:12at something.
00:13I've always had something I wanted to wake up and do every morning aggressively with
00:19everything I got.
00:20Antonio was never drafted.
00:37Sometimes you've got to make lemonade with the lemons they give you.
00:40This is it.
00:41You didn't get drafted.
00:42But there's teams out there that want you.
00:44Now what are you going to do about it?
00:48I was trying to be that guy that you want to be one day, the best version of yourself
00:54that you can see that's out there.
00:57He was the kind of kid that got in the dirt and scribbled the play in high school.
01:02And he was the guy at Eastern Illinois that just kept the team in every single game.
01:07You're sitting and watching like, hey, there's a guy that we used to play with and now he's
01:12starting for the Dallas Cowboys.
01:14It's easy to forget that they're people first and they're athletes second.
01:21Sometimes you get people that are successful and they do change and that's unfortunate.
01:27But that's never really been the case with Tony.
01:29He's always been a pretty small town guy.
01:31When you talk about the grind, you talk about the teammate that you are, the way you treat
01:36people in your organization and the people in the area, I think that would define my
01:40idea of his legacy more than how many touchdowns he threw or how many games he won.
01:46Fourteen years, one team, not too many people get to do that.
01:52No one's perfect.
01:53No one does things the right way all the time.
01:55God's got you.
01:56You go through the ups, you go through the downs, you come out on the other end.
02:00Hopefully if you're lucky you've got a bunch of people around you that love you, that are
02:03there with you, then you've done it probably the right way.
