[0:00]" It is rare when we get to say were going to talk to the greatest. Player at his position in the history of the national football. But that's what most people think he was the greatest guard in the history of the game. All neighbors and Patriots great on him with a ticket to approach appreciate you know athletes and spends I. I play athletes are -- Affiliate at Logan Mankins in here earlier and he committed every Friday like real life young man Maria and and he was talking about you know he's had the opportunity to talk with you he plays the position you play. You've seen a little of John Hannah when you watch Logan Mankins play."

[0:41]" Or no question about it I think you know he's got a sense that tenacity about it a little bit. Or not somebody else's blocked off which you know I think is great not many office of linemen have that. Attitude you skylight -- of player in my office for you -- actually take to play the deepest of guys who the other way around. Which is you know it's odd for most because -- linemen they're used to that was about Kamal what exactly does not -- him in the mouth. And you know it's it's they don't know how to handle and if he can. You know as he learns and grows and understands where he can keep that. Tenacity and aggressiveness going -- yet maintain the angles so that. When he does over commit you know it does not. The the real take away play where banks you -- and he still learning that a little bit ace Jason Morgan. That angle little bit better every time he goes out there and you see see him develop and get better and better."

[1:41]" Now we talked to him about turning that switch on for the games he's pretty laid back guy mild mannered guy in the game's start he's not. What did you do you get yourself ready for the game where did you go."

[1:54]" You know Romo where oh where people -- have a house on Friday. Utterly try to and I -- Greg remain. And they in their right -- you know Saturday of before we had report to those -- you know it's all we've we've reported. Either by years -- shop -- is. I guess I just get my head nets are. I usually played the game -- fourth some you know I'd go field position. You know assume -- Matsui began for me you know call play -- See me. Yes. -- visualization. Process play. Play that game three -- four and you know Sunday morning. -- beat. You know like. If -- and rodeo hopeful that -- that I am now with some ailment or. And let me those L -- stories that folks didn't even like -- in the UN. In the locker Novoa got to get ready like I do blues their special of the latter part of my career was a run in the and they put him next to me and he and I don't think scared here by. You know we were we both had to get rated similar they put me in a corner and gave me a corner locker. And you know. It was I was able to you must -- inside corner and kind of create a little room for myself -- in Angela small little world. You know do what I -- get rated and you know versus the way I had to do it to play I mean that's the only way out news is we have performer at the level and."

[3:36]" Perform. -- go ahead like I was gonna say you're you're Thomas off the year. Just the role of the guard. If he's got a good tackle and you got a good center of the role of regard to a place visible. I mean you know. Guards typically don't have defeat to attack. In -- in -- it's a different body size so little. Longer -- articles or legs longer torso. Usually has long arms compared to the rest of his body so that helps with the drastic -- But his jobs get underneath -- and lifted and push him back to clear path or are right. So if you've gotta tackle insert here -- says that her right. In regard comes off this clears -- in he's he's the they actually figured. It's like okay. Now you can just create -- gap and then whoever surprise you're right is where. 1. You know the way you know rags goes away in -- All those trees force. You know -- always build what you want it to be that he's not in -- trees. And that's what you do Mike Haynes played for the Patriots and is a great player in the Hall of Fame but was not a Patriots hall of Famer of the way you. Finally. You've got to be joined in the Hall of Fame by and other Patriots hall of Famer this summer you know what to think of Andre Tippett induction long overdue long orders. You know the -- of I am so glad that I Andre played for us because of any guy ever ever you know football."

[5:21]" Real news goes it was rooted in. Intimidated me. I really think he's not you know you'd really weird you'd be realized he would be the of the -- equalized. The buck Buchanan Alan page. You know those he was that caliber player. You know I respected LT and feared that he couldn't hurt me he would have a tough ball players me make. Sacks in the quarterback's right and bags -- Anybody can do that. You know for -- lineman takes a different person -- scares -- by -- respected. And he was one of those guys you'd need to hurry in -- as long overdue and get involved. Not speak you know Hall of Fame the Patriots have a Hall of Fame down here and now they have all kinds of stuff on what is -- what are what have you seen. Well you know the funny thing is the first. Those are really into it they have about 67. Podiums affairs they handle all of my name tendencies the Pacers and utility if there's it's almost once highlight films it was awful. It was fun to go back to -- geno and the in all you know knowledge as a you know is expecting to see some black and white but they must've had polarization -- regarding -- You know that's hard to believe that they had color for those that."

[6:48]" I. -- The hall at Patriot place opened yesterday they had the big ribbon cutting where there was there -- there people got. I'm at the chance to see it I understand some of the interactive exhibits around believable like when you're watching Adam Vinatieri kicked the field goal in the snow I was watching the kid."

[7:08]" Do that in in you know what's in that then there's another one where the kids actually go -- is really funny watching them get that ball. -- portrays -- football or -- and whether it -- Probably in their place where you can. Like did and stance and in time your races go and you get your hands on you know spots and it's your reaction do. All of a lot of great exhibits it's it's it's a fun thing and and you know for me to a mean one of the various things for us older now more. Maybe you period here you know right when you first orders of big picture girls thing right and all the people that you -- I've ever sacrificed. Or this thing in his history. Girls -- by more than anybody. Every. I never had the privilege. Of knowing -- except when he was in which here now when I'm -- What to be able to see him as a Patriot football player would -- in the real -- you can't. Darryl was just coming into the zone I mean you lose. Of great human being just -- to -- right now one of these. You know it's by being. On the urging. And you've really fun to be -- ram cause he can do Stevie Wonder like. The you wonder -- Obviously -- you notary we go to these parties are saying it's that you wondered he'd go through the motions that. It was I swear people thought it was hit even harder and I was that you get him on the football field and he can get to ball he lives in he was not afraid to go across the middle. And he could block and they use it better better -- is a great. Great assets this team and you know news just real -- tomorrow."

[9:08]" Who what you do for you mean if you you're part of this franchise beginning in the early 1970s and -- 2008 and -- There remembering all the stuff celebrating all the things that you experienced like he has got a pretty well it's great. Years. Here when you think about it like -- For. -- year. Previously. The agent for this team owners to make money. -- and they make money. Her name you know trade away payroll. -- and Mike and got them -- oh increase their profit margins. So you know that was their vision that was their vision. The crowds on the other hand. Came in and as fans for hours. And and mr. Kraft has always. -- you know house or out of hand right from the beginning now it's always. So his vision was -- to -- champions. And beat them -- and indictment. So all of a sudden you see him it would be winning these championships making these changes but yet at the -- Increasing the city. And and there's an actual rules and that is built around this. I mean you know I can see people living here you know having condos or residential. -- regular stated. All built on this one franchise because they are champions and that's a vision and that was Bob Estes and you know what he also realized. They maybe. What -- You know when he was -- thing and he solves certain individuals that. Heads more visions of the team like he like he wanted. In he's paying homage to them because in the way they those of those may have closed and about this thing. You think back in the days when you switcher."

[11:20]" What went on your car and drive down rent the state crack at it I mean that's what that it was going to drive to -- as an -- In your uniform that you mutual sweaty stuff practice and you -- drop back to this. Amuses you can't believe it was like when I came here training room. Woods about the size of the studio room were in which is not very hard. And they we had to tape into -- a world -- We had a hot -- Q later pads and we had an ice machine and that was -- always. To go to weight room he had that we actually joined work -- which work effort. So if you go to a place they had to wait here. I don't multi with a couple thoughts immediately. What it was why. What our first home game. Are watered it more. So we had actually go to these outdoor Porta Johns to use the bathroom before the game in hand and and we can -- our games I mean it was his masters you know in. In. The when I came here from the university about him. Our lowest total shock I could not believe this was a football. I. School had better. And we had more fans also. You know American Rivers the morning having an interview they threw what's it going to be like to play over 55000. People. Not that won't be too disappointed. An -- his plan from 8090000. People in this EC every way. You know they had 90004000. People -- game two years ago entered 40000 people why. You know so -- it it was long it was meant to see this this now this was way.
