00:00Michael, was there a point at which you,

00:01you know, I know that you went to Fox as a commentator

00:04right after you retired from the Giants.

00:06Was there a point at which you said,

00:08hey, this is for me, I love doing this,

00:11I'm gonna be an interviewer, or?

00:13That was her thing.

00:14Yeah?

00:15That was from Constance.

00:17That was 100%.

00:19You suggested that this might be.

00:20It wasn't even a suggestion,

00:22I said she's the boss, she told me.

00:23That's what happened.

00:26The suggestion is like, you know, maybe you would,

00:28no, she's like, no, this is what you're gonna,

00:30literally, this is what you're gonna do.

00:32Okay.

00:33And I didn't see it.

00:34I still don't see it.

00:35I don't see any appeal of having me,

00:37you know, me and you, hey, I gotta get,

00:39rock that gap, brother.

00:41Rock that gap, you know?

00:42Takes a strong man to rock it.

00:45Strong people, right?

00:46Gap in the front teeth.

00:47I'm thinking, what is a gap-toothed guy,

00:49how in the heck am I ever gonna get on TV for anything?

00:52And then they're allowing me to do football,

00:54which I'm grateful for.

00:55And I went on live when I retired,

00:59and I was a guest on the show for like a quick, hot second.

01:02Because Eli couldn't go.

01:03Yeah, yeah, because Eli basically couldn't,

01:05wasn't available, so they called me.

01:07And I do the show, I remember,

01:09we remember telling Michael Gelman,

01:11told me if you have, if Regis is ever on vacation

01:14or something, I would love to come in and fill in.

01:16It took a year later that I got a call.

01:18I did the show, after the show,

01:20first one I ever did, scared to death,

01:23she comes in, she goes, this is what you're gonna do.

01:26I'm like, what are you talking about?

01:27And that's a gut instinct thing.

01:29Gut instinct.
