I love living. I think that's infectious. It's something that you can't fake.

Greatness is not this wonderful elusive feature that only the special among us will ever taste.

It's something that truly exists in all of us. It's very simple. This is what I believe and I'm willing to die for.

The separation of talent and skill is one of the greatest misunderstood concepts for people who are trying to excel, who have dreams that want to do things.

Talent you have naturally. Skill is only developed by hours and hours and hours of beating on your craft.

Sickening work ethic. While the other guy is sleeping, I'm working. What other guys eat and I'm working.

I want my life, I want my work, my family, I want it to mean something. If you are not making someone else's life better, then you're wasting your time.

The first step before anybody else in the world believes it is you have to believe it. There's no reason to have a plan B because it distracts from a plan A.

I'm going to do it. It's done. It's already done. The second I decide it's done, it's already done.

You can't be scared. You can't be scared.

Seven minutes past the hour. Thank you so much for being with the kickoff out. We start a brand new day.

And we thank you for being a part of it. Let's bring in the other two. That'll be the three good time gang members that get you through the kickoff out each and every day.

I am Speedy alongside Greg Burgess and Michael Held. We'll break down the days news. Jump around some internal stuff here. That's kind of what we do.

We get things kicked off. Get loose. Get focused and then, hey, here come Rick and Bubba. And the main show starts.

And so we thank you for being a part of this show each and every day. You help produce it. And that number is 866. We be big.

Let's bring you know, oh, look at him. He's over there. He's got leaning on his, you know, leaning on his elbow, looking off into the corner of the room, no telling what he's thinking.

It's Greg Burgess and right in front of me fired up and ready. It's Michael Held. What's up, boys? How you doing? Hey, hey, hey. Hey, what up?

How you doing? What up?

What up?

If tomorrow was a promise, Speedy, what would you do today? I'd get after it. I'd get after it. Come on, somebody.

But today, it's hard to believe. Can you guys believe it has been 17 years since 9-11? No, it is hard to believe.

17 years. Remembering 9-11, we'll be doing that today. And that's a marker where, you know, if you're old enough to remember, you remember exactly where you were this day on 9-11.
