| 0:04.0 | I mean, I thought Joe Shane was a little out of breath. Yeah, it was a very strange thing there. I was nervous. I felt like he was nervous. But why would, like, you're right. He was nervous, and that's probably what was going on. But what I don't understand is he's been in a lot of situations where he would be more likely to be nervous, where it's like these middle of the season into the bi-week press conferences where his job is on the line or end of the year. It's another four wins, and everybody's asking him why you should still be the general manager why Brian Daibald got fired. And this is like the exciting one. You got it done. You're here. You're the man. You're're staying and then that's why he was out of breath |
| 0:39.0 | it was weird it was very strange it was kind of strange and then of course because this is new |

| 1:35.4 | And, you know, John Mara is at the office every single day. |
