As evidenced by his knee-slap at the 2:57 mark.<\/p>\n<p>Look at his face and body language in the beginning &#8211; ZERO energy. Compare that to the 3 minute mark. We did for Drew what he did for the careers of\u00a0Devery Henderson,\u00a0Robert Meachem, Terrance Copper, and Marques Colston.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Are you just all interviewed out this morning Drew? Are you just tired of it all at this point?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Drew Brees: You guys are interview number 21. But, I&#8217;m all good.<\/p>\n<p><strong>That&#8217;s it? I thought you were serious about this thing, Drew.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Drew Brees: That&#8217;s it!<\/p>\n<p><strong>How many yards can you throw a ball left-handed?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Drew Brees: Oh, that&#8217;s a good one. I don&#8217;t think I&#8217;ve ever actually attempted to measure that. But if I were to guess off the top of my head, I&#8217;m thinking I could go about 30&#8230;30 yards. Maybe gauge half of what I can do with my right, I could do with my left.<\/p>\n<p><strong>And that&#8217;s a DART, right Drew?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Drew Brees: Wellll&#8230;.I wouldn&#8217;t call it a dart.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What was it like to stab that crocodile with Bear Grylls and feel the life leave its body?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Drew Brees: I wouldn&#8217;t necessarily describe it like <em>that<\/em>. But, that was intense now. You talk about your heart thumping a little bit. Here I am, waking through the jungle in Panama. ANd we&#8217;re walking through this dry creek bed and we see this f-foot gator. And Bear was like, &#8220;That&#8217;s our dinner.&#8221; And I&#8217;m like, &#8220;Well how are we gonna kill this thing?&#8221; &#8220;I&#8217;m gonna distract it, and you&#8217;re gonna jump on its back and stab it to death.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>And I was like &#8211; wait a minute. Can we flip those roles?? I&#8217;m thinking about throwing a ball with this right hand. And raising my kids. Now I&#8217;m using that same hand to stab this crocodile in the back of the neck so that we can eat dinner that night. It was crazy.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How did this interview compare to the Dan Patrick Show interview you did earlier?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Drew Brees: Were you guys listening to that?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Oh yeah.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Drew Brees: Do you think Dan Patrick is listening to yours?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Nope. No way.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3>Related Content:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Madden 99 Club Launched: List Of Every Player Ranked 99 Or Higher EVER<\/li>\n<li>Randall Cunningham\u2019s 1990 Season: Greatest NFL Season Ever\u00a0<\/li>\n<li>Chuck Cecil And When Men Were Men<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The absolute last thing on earth Drew Brees wanted to do was talk to me.

I\u2019ve married six couples in 10 years and my Marriage to Still Married ratio is 6:6. I always say, it isn\u2019t so much about the \u201clove,\u201d as it is the tasteless jokes that became vows. \u00a0 I started the I-80 Sports Blog to have all the work I've published located in one place and to write about things I want to write about. I don't take anything too seriously and it is a real time saver.","url":"https:\/\/i80sportsblog.com\/author\/paul\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/i80sportsblog.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3826","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/i80sportsblog.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/i80sportsblog.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/i80sportsblog.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/i80sportsblog.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3826"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/i80sportsblog.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3826\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/i80sportsblog.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3832"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/i80sportsblog.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3826"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/i80sportsblog.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3826"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/i80sportsblog.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3826"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
