| 0:00.0 | I'm not here to fill any one shoes. |
| 0:03.0 | Miles, he's a size 13, you know, Nike, whatever they are. You know, I'm a size, you know, 13-half, size 14, Jordan's. Everybody's different. I'm not here to fill his shoes, I'm here to bring my own. By my own, I'm here to work, and I'm here to be the best version of me. The best version of me is going to be the best defensive player in the league. And the best defense to play the league is going to play for the best defense in the league. |
| 0:21.8 | And that's why I test like make |
| 0:23.0 | myself testament to. |
| 0:27.1 | Jared verse on his way in with the Cleveland Browns. I don't think Miles Garrett was the 13. |
| 0:31.6 | I don't know what Miles Garrett wears but if he's if he's if he's only size 13 it doesn't take much to shove him over. Well, I don't know, you know, it can go different ways. Yeah, I, I would probably expect it might be a little bigger, like as far as his shoes that way. But, you know, you do see freaky athletes, big guys at times in the NFL, and they'll go, man, I only got a 12 or I'm only a 13. And you're going, damn, you're 6-6 or 6-7, and, you know, there's that. But, yeah, I doubt it too. I would think it's like he's probably at least a 14. What is Miles Garrett? 6-5 and change, 275 somewhere in there. That would be, my guess would be. But Jared Burst, you know, just trying to make a point there. Hell, I'm at 12. Maybe I would have been taller if all that second-hand cigarette smoked it and stunt my growth in the 70s. Damn. Where it was everywhere I went, every meal, every day. We were talking about that not long ago. My mom |
| 1:29.2 | had the parliaments. My dad had the Marlboros. Every day, nonstop. Smoke, smoke, smoke, smoke. Okay. |
| 1:34.7 | My feet were the same size as my age growing up. All right? So when I was a 12, I had a size 12. |
| 1:40.5 | When I was 13, I had a size 13. I looked like Ronald McDonald for a period of time in my younger |
| 1:46.9 | days. And it was, I lost speed. I was gangly. I had damn foot issues. I actually broke my foot and had, |
| 1:56.1 | you know, had to wear orthotics because my feet were so flat. They grew so fast that I had |
| 2:00.8 | little problems there. |
| 2:01.9 | So I am a member of the big feet suffering club as a young child there. |
| 2:10.2 | So when did it stop? |
| 2:12.3 | When did you stop growing a shoe size every birthday? |
| 2:15.8 | It literally was when I was 14, I was a 14, and then it never went anymore, right? |
| 2:23.1 | And so then I finally started to grow into my feet. |
| 2:26.0 | And I was going through that time. |
| 2:28.0 | I mean, I think I've told you before. |
| 2:29.9 | I think I probably went into middle school, which is up here and where we live was seventh |
| 2:36.0 | and eighth grade. I think I probably, in going to seventh grade, was maybe, you know, five, |
| 2:41.6 | six, something like that, somewhere in there, maybe. And then I left eighth grade like six, |
