Actually while in high school in Oklahoma, we used to have firecracker wars. And every year we would have to stomp out fires basically, especially if it hasn’t rained and it was dry. So, I’ve experienced some big fires a couple of times. So, I know a little something about it.I’ve done some things for them in the past and I always enjoyed doing it, honestly. I like the people and I like what they stand for. So, whenever they ask me to do anything, I try to be there for it.
Have you always been a community guy? There are guys like you and Aaron who it’s really important to be a part of the community. Was there anybody who kind of got you on that road or have you always been a giver in that regard? I’m basically five days a week right now. I take Wednesdays off but it’s not really off; it’s more like a recovery day. I do feel-good stuff, whether that’s massage or cardio or whatever. But then I’m basically Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, probably like twice a day most days, maybe three times sometimes. I get bored sometimes at home, so I’ll be like, “All right, if I get bored, I’ll just go work.”Oh, yeah. I’m excited about this season. This offseason was pretty good. I can say that.
