WEBVTT

00:00:03.829 --> 00:00:07.379
This is the surest sign that football season is right

00:00:07.389 --> 00:00:10.220
around the corner, the man who is the image

00:00:10.228 --> 00:00:12.519
, the voice. However you want it for NFL

00:00:12.528 --> 00:00:14.478
Sundays, for people all across this country. The

00:00:14.489 --> 00:00:17.568
host of the Red Zone channel, Scott Hansen joining

00:00:17.579 --> 00:00:19.350
us. Now here, Scott, how are you

00:00:19.359 --> 00:00:21.079
feeling, man? And we talk about game week

00:00:21.089 --> 00:00:22.568
for these players all the time. You got to

00:00:22.579 --> 00:00:24.089
be chomping at the bit right now. I,

00:00:24.100 --> 00:00:27.949
I've probably sent 20 text messages in the last 24

00:00:27.958 --> 00:00:30.888
hours to friends, family, loved ones, fellow

00:00:30.899 --> 00:00:34.789
football fans just saying we're back. It's finally game

00:00:34.798 --> 00:00:36.810
week and, and it's, let me just say

00:00:37.098 --> 00:00:39.810
it's great to be with the first family of big

00:00:39.819 --> 00:00:43.679
boy football on this show. Uh We, we

00:00:43.689 --> 00:00:48.509
appreciate that. II I wonder how does it make

00:00:48.520 --> 00:00:50.310
you feel when you stop and think about it?

00:00:50.319 --> 00:00:55.228
Is people really do equate football being back with seeing

00:00:55.240 --> 00:00:57.880
you and knowing you just, and I know I

00:00:57.889 --> 00:00:59.380
do, I, before I got to call a

00:00:59.389 --> 00:01:00.859
game Sunday night, I'm sitting in my chair going

00:01:02.168 --> 00:01:04.150
. Yes. Ok. Here we go. Yeah

00:01:04.159 --> 00:01:06.459
, I'll be, I mean, in the off

00:01:06.469 --> 00:01:08.430
season, I'll be in a deli or something and

00:01:08.439 --> 00:01:11.189
I'll go, I'll take a turkey on wheat,

00:01:11.198 --> 00:01:12.379
no onion, no tomato. And the guy next

00:01:12.388 --> 00:01:14.519
to me, he'll be like this, like,

00:01:14.528 --> 00:01:17.278
looking over and there is like, I mean,

00:01:17.290 --> 00:01:22.349
there's like a Pavlovian response to me calling out something

00:01:22.359 --> 00:01:23.049
or, or, you know, pointing out something

00:01:23.058 --> 00:01:25.948
in public and, and, uh, I was

00:01:25.959 --> 00:01:29.069
at a grocery store one time, uh, put

00:01:29.079 --> 00:01:30.638
in the cart back. Right. I'm one of

00:01:30.650 --> 00:01:30.939
those guys. I'm a good guy, put the

00:01:30.948 --> 00:01:34.359
cart back. Good guy from like two or three

00:01:34.370 --> 00:01:36.948
parking spots over right in the parking lot goes,

00:01:37.168 --> 00:01:38.469
give it to me, give it to me and

00:01:38.480 --> 00:01:42.138
I look at him and I'm like seven hours of

00:01:42.150 --> 00:01:47.269
commercial free football start now and he goes, yes

00:01:47.278 --> 00:01:48.588
, he didn't even say hi or anything. He

00:01:48.599 --> 00:01:51.069
got back into his car. He went, so

00:01:51.079 --> 00:01:53.719
look, I am very, very blessed that my

00:01:53.730 --> 00:01:56.430
skill set and the demands of NFL red zone and

00:01:56.439 --> 00:01:57.799
the popularity of the show have, have all married

00:01:57.808 --> 00:02:00.308
together and, uh I can promise you, I'm

00:02:00.319 --> 00:02:04.058
gonna bring everything I got for 18 straight Sundays.

00:02:04.829 --> 00:02:07.689
What is the line that gets parroted you most in

00:02:07.698 --> 00:02:08.679
public? Because you've got that, you've got the

00:02:08.689 --> 00:02:10.669
Octa Box, you've got the witching hour, which

00:02:10.679 --> 00:02:14.300
is taken off. Is it seven hours of commercial

00:02:14.308 --> 00:02:15.159
free football? That's the one that gets belched at

00:02:15.169 --> 00:02:17.118
you the most like that. Yeah, I suppose

00:02:17.129 --> 00:02:20.008
that's the one that, that, that people because

00:02:20.020 --> 00:02:21.588
it has so much, um, behind it.

00:02:21.599 --> 00:02:23.758
But then the witching hour has taken on a life

00:02:23.770 --> 00:02:24.360
of its own. You know, like there are

00:02:24.368 --> 00:02:28.250
people that will message each other that will stop each

00:02:28.258 --> 00:02:30.278
other. Like a, like a casual football fan

00:02:30.288 --> 00:02:32.032
and a serious football fan. A serious fan tells

00:02:32.042 --> 00:02:35.173
the casual fan. It's the witching hour. If

00:02:35.181 --> 00:02:37.162
you're not watching all seven hours, you need to

00:02:37.173 --> 00:02:40.192
watch this 60 minutes. And then Octo Box because

00:02:40.271 --> 00:02:43.923
I, I came up with that because if an

00:02:43.931 --> 00:02:46.372
individual game, Sunday night football, Monday night football

00:02:46.382 --> 00:02:47.551
, they always take the blimp shot right over the

00:02:47.562 --> 00:02:51.301
stadium to make it feel big. Well, we're

00:02:51.312 --> 00:02:53.801
dealing with 789 games in the early window. I'm

00:02:53.812 --> 00:02:55.292
like, what can we do to make it feel

00:02:55.301 --> 00:02:58.513
big? We need a blimp shot. And I

00:02:58.521 --> 00:03:00.165
said, why, why don't we take all eight

00:03:00.175 --> 00:03:02.034
games? Put them into an octo box and just

00:03:02.045 --> 00:03:05.365
show that to show we've got our eyes everywhere.

00:03:05.376 --> 00:03:07.115
People you have stopped at the right place. So

00:03:07.126 --> 00:03:09.004
the octo box is great. There's a guy in

00:03:09.015 --> 00:03:14.385
Iowa who has named his dog Octo Box. So

00:03:14.496 --> 00:03:16.205
it, the, all the catchphrases have caught on

00:03:16.216 --> 00:03:19.534
which as we all know in broadcasting is, is

00:03:19.545 --> 00:03:22.545
, uh very beneficial for the, uh for the

00:03:22.555 --> 00:03:23.974
relationship between the audience and the host or the team

00:03:23.985 --> 00:03:24.844
that produces it
