00:00All right, NFL season is here and you know, everyone knows I'm a big fan of the Miami

00:06Dolphins and I got a chance to see a little practice, but you know, with the season starting

00:12up, I want to talk to one of their top players, Alec Ingold.

00:16He's an old school fullback in the Dolphins' modern offense.

00:21Last year he was the Dolphins' finalist for Walter Payton fan of the year and I'm glad

00:25to be joined by Alec Ingold.

00:28Let's go for a walk.

00:29Let's do it.

00:30Let's do it, baby.

00:31Are you ready to roll?

00:32Yes.

00:33I can handle a bad rope.

00:34I watched a whole bunch of weight today.

00:35I mean, when I was five-six pounds, I'd probably be on the ground right now.

00:36Yeah.

00:37We got this hot weather.

00:38We got some cloud cover for you, though.

00:39We ordered it up for you.

00:40Yeah.

00:41Yeah.

00:42Yeah.

00:43Yeah.

00:44Yeah.

00:45Yeah.

00:46Yeah.

00:47Yeah.

00:48Yeah.

00:49Yeah.

00:50Yeah.

00:51Yeah.

00:52Yeah.

00:53Yeah.

00:54Yeah.

00:55Yeah.

00:56Yeah.

00:57Yeah.

00:58Yeah.

00:59Yeah.

01:00So we ordered it up for you.

01:01Well, it's almost 3 o'clock, so you know what that means.

01:02About to rain.

01:03Yeah.

01:04That 10 minute storm, which feels good for about 2 minutes and then all of a sudden it

01:10turns into a sauna.

01:12Yup, 100%.

01:13That's awesome.

01:14That's Miami.

01:15You can almost say you're watched by it.

01:17Yeah, literally.

01:18Anytime we're in this team room, we'll hear all the rain just going nuts, right around

01:222-33, and then it's good for the rest of the day.

01:25Yeah.

01:26I mean it's I mean just think about this quality heat you have now

01:34You don't have to wear winter coats and worry about snowshoes. No

01:39So, you know, you know

01:41We I don't know if you like when you grow up

01:44I know obviously you're you know up in Northeast part of the United States and you grow up in snow. You're used to it

01:50It's hard to like acclimate to all that if you're down here all the time

01:53So I'm glad that you live in it first before you move down. Yes, we can travel up north

01:58Yeah, it's I mean last year. I don't go off in

02:04Really poppy second-best team in the AFC. I think what just happened is the injuries

02:09Yeah, what is that? That to me is the key for this year. Is he got to stay healthy?

02:14We need I was at the Black Friday game in the Medellin's on that horrible surface

02:21When Phillips went down I felt the city

02:25when I watched the Hardknocks

02:28just the sound was such a

02:31Just awful. Yeah, he was mic'd up when it happened

02:33I was there for you like going to like a game in the Medellin's

02:37Obviously, you don't have to travel far for that one. You go to the Jets opens game every year

02:41Yes, that's so I mean so you get to do that then you watch Hardknocks, you know

02:46Like how does that fan experience go for you like being able to kind of get into the locker room?

02:51It's not it's nice. I just

02:53Hardknocks, I know that's a pain for the players

02:56It wasn't that bad

02:57I mean they threw some cameras up in like the meeting rooms and stuff

03:00But I think at the end of the day kind of just helps I watched almost every episode

03:05I just couldn't bring myself to watch the last two

03:09Like after the season I want to go back and watch a couple of them

03:13I just I just could I couldn't put I couldn't watch that again. I mean you live at one time

03:19I mean that game in Kansas City was just

03:23So cold

03:26Honestly, I don't

03:27the NFL

03:29Should not put a night game that situation. I don't want to put it in prime time Pete talking everything but

03:36You got to put up in the daytime, but at least maybe it's not as brutally cold. I mean that was a dangerous situation

03:49I

03:56Found a chair for me

04:01You're kind of a dying breed the old-fashioned walking back fullback with all these fast guys behind you most hurt each hand

04:10The blocking back to this to speed unit Frank

04:14I just trying to get out of the way

04:15Like one of the slowest guys on the field obviously and you just try and give those guys an inch, you know

04:20I think obviously you have

04:23Such like, you know the encyclopedia you have up like it was Larry's off your guy. Yeah

04:27I got Larry's uncle Jersey to you got Larry's uncle Jersey. Yeah, I was I was too young

04:31But he's he's back before my you're like a merino guy growing up. Yeah. Okay, so I'm 48 so, okay

04:37So but I do have a when I was

04:40Seven years old the first Jersey I own

04:44It's like that boy like a cheap little store there wasn't a number 39. Yeah Dolphin Jersey. Did it have this logo on it?

04:51Uh, yeah. Yeah, well didn't have logo on it had like stripes. Yeah, but yeah

04:56Yeah, that's I had a yeah when I was seven years old. I had a number 39

05:00Larry's not good Jersey. So my first day here. We had a team meeting and Larry's not showed up

05:07Stories from 72 perfect season

05:0971 right before when they lost in the Super Bowl and I was ready to run through the brick wall

05:14You ever hear that guy talk his hands are like massive. You gotta gotta listen. He broke his nose like

05:2035 times. Yeah, I don't with those face masks back in the day

05:23I don't know how everybody and I'm listening to the audible of

05:31Spice guys. Yeah, I think so, you know, but they're talking about Manny Fernandez

05:40Weeks in the hospital, but he left every Sunday to play the game. Really? Yes. I

05:45Find that insane some of those guys back in the day. We're so tough like I mean, obviously we're out here in 100-degree heat

05:51Whatever, but those guys back in the Orange Bowl the way they played like someone gets too long

05:56You'd say they're putting a my or he probably doesn't return for the season

06:00But he's like he's he's checking out the hospital goes to the stadium plays makes a

06:05Game winning play and goes back to the hospital. Yeah

06:09I mean we have some guys like they'll have surgeries on like Mondays or Sundays right after the game

06:14They'll play the next week's pneumonia when you're going to like literally to the hospital. I mean

06:20Football players are tough. There'd be not no question about it and

06:24The Dolphins

06:26Fullback position. It's it's really tough play that is yet. They're like, but you one thing I know is that you're gonna catch that ball

06:34Yeah

06:35Every once a while. I mean you kind of surprise them right to his gut. Yeah, he's got all the no-look passes

06:41He's a lefty. So sometimes it looks different coming out of the hand and they let me love for you

06:45You don't have to go like

06:47Yeah, it's uh, you don't really get very many yards when you're a fullback, but

06:52Whenever you get the ball, it's always fun to be able to celebrate with the guys. What are your expectations?

06:57I don't know. What what are your expectations?

07:00Because I get so lucky to like a training camp practice like we have offense defense

07:04We have these battles going on like what what are your expectations big picture? I think

07:11They got it, but he is healthy

07:14Yeah, we got a

07:17I

07:25Think you guys should be able to win division. Yeah

07:42January

07:46Yeah

07:55And this is what it's all about it's a thing and you've mentioned that how much you appreciate the fans especially young fans

08:17And I think if you win a division

08:20Depending on the seed you get second third. Yeah

08:24Who knows?

08:26Anything can happen once again the tournament that's what happened to golf

08:30The injuries always I don't want to be out what didn't mean so what

08:35What's the celebration? What's the celebratory situation?

08:46I'm gonna shake on that one

09:00That needs to be a problem

09:17Obviously you got the threads on but you're part of the part of the squad now, so

09:2586
