[0:01]" There's sort. Trying to figure out to a -- not the right course of action but we've got -- mean it was a moral goal and true couple different specials. We've talked to I think everybody from Theo to lose it was agents too far. Medical people and the hard thing is -- in the end of this might mean the end I mean the last part of foresees. It's probably going to end up being what he can handle. And we've all seen that he can handle locked. Political us like god afterwards you came to watch you'll -- very -- or.

[3:03]" Well I gave you don't want I don't think it's like it would Friday was inflexible and that's not fair. What I want out there I mean I just went out there because that really was hurt them. I think Hussein so these are legal for Mike he says someone might get slower until later when he said that I -- you -- in which. Like I didn't care of this. Walked away he's going to apply its just Williams. I worry about him on days when he says he can't play. That always -- Some guys like when -- meet higher threshold for him. I don't know whether it's willing ability just you look this. Oh yeah true I don't know how you measure that it's impossible. Just impossible book. I think he is he has exhibited an unbelievable ability to claw their -- and probably most people couldn't. Yeah. Actually know."
