| 0:00.0 | What is what is the biggest difference you see guys in the league now than when guys were in the league you know during your stem? |
| 0:11.9 | Um, I would say the players are a lot more polished. They're more media savvy. I think the money is a lot bigger. You know, |
| 0:25.3 | so I think guys understand their positions better. Guys are professional. They understand |
| 0:32.6 | professionalism a lot more. There was in the beginning of my career, we didn't have social media. |
