1:50.4

yourself out and wear it, you know, wear it well, which we all show, we're all sure that he will.

1:56.8

And so it's just quite an cop. That's quite an honor for Malik Navas,'s a, it's a gigantic honor, you know, and even he was humble enough to, you know, the Giants

2:08.4

posted his quote.

2:09.4

I don't want to, I don't want to misquote it, but the Giants posted his quote on all social

2:14.4

media, basically that it's an honor for him.

4:31.3

You know, it seems like a kid has his head on straight. And, you know, thank you to the Flarity family for allowing me where number one. I understand the responsibility with everything in my power to honor the Flarity family in this organization. I'll wear the number with great pride. Can't wait for the season to start. So look, Giants have a lot of question marks. That's a real feel good thing going into the season dude I know it's a number but it's just I think that stuff's awesome dude love it yeah yeah absolutely I thought it was we got the text on the way home from the Giants on our phones and you know the and I was like wow this is I'm like I had to make sure I read first I'm I'm driving and I'm trying to make sure I'm reading it right yeah and then I'm like wait minute the first number retired and pro football hit like wait a minute wait a man giant's history no pro football I'm like whoa I mean I almost had a freaking accent I was trying to read this damn thing yeah you know and I was like holy shit so that was that was pretty quite an for Malik. He'll wear number one. He had nine on today to practice. So everything was done after the practice, he'll have one on from here on and out for Malik. Hopefully 10 to 15 years in a giant uniform, right? Jerry, that's the goal. Yeah, and I think Papa mentioned that on the podcast or on the one of those specials. I forget where he said it, that that Flaherty's number was the first one retired. But man, what an honor. It's awesome. And I felt like, you know, I know Gano was nine, but you just felt like even if he could have somehow gotten nine, it just felt like it wasn't going to stick. Like he was changing from nine for whatever reason those of you um you know who wanted to wait on the jersey good job uh waiting and not getting it too early and now number one's a cool jersey to wear too man i mean i mean you know uh you can now go out and get your number one jerseys yeah there you go and i think if he has a big first game that's going to be one of the top selling jerseys in the league. I'm just getting that feeling, bro. Yeah, no, absolutely. So, yeah, quite an honor from Malik, whose locker is I kind of stashed away in a corner of the locker room. I saw that. I saw that ex post. Yeah. Jerry, we were actually, today was the first day to lock them. We're back in the locker. And we're regular season mode. Thank God, by the way. Okay. And we're looking around, you know, I'm, Juan Dells next to Jalen, hi, Daniel. And we're looking around. And all of a sudden, I'm like, okay, okay. I'm looking around like, okay, where's Malik? Did Malik make this team? He made the 53, right?

You know, like looking around like, what else is this locker? And I actually had an ex, uh, we ex, me and this other guy. What else Malik's? Oh, it's down here in the corner. It's actually the first lock as you walk in. It's right there next to the nacho. and I was like, oh, man, I thought it'd be next to Daniel,
