I was at Camden Yards last year when the Giants came to town. And I was hoping to catch up with you. I had memorable memories with you over the years where you just harassed me all the time. And I think it would give nature. And I was hoping for some retribution, but I only caught up with John Miller when the Giants came into town. So what are you up to these days? You know, I am one of the Giants special heating instructors, not only do I see the Major League Club once a month, but also see all of our minor league affiliates. Matter of fact, I just got through seeing our low-A affiliate, which is in San Jose, California. And it's always good, you know, seeing the kids, as Mike knows, you know, it's always good to see them and, you know, pass on a little information and they look at you and they go, whoa, that works. It's like, yeah, keep doing it there, son. You know, you'll be alright. So, I think they did jump in the big leagues, brother, to tell you that the truth. Listen, listen, Will, I got to share this with the audience right now. You were one of my heroes, bag, because I was a young player out in the Bay Area, and you were like the superstar, man. You're on the cover of the Vegas Sports Illustrated with Maguire. We got the past brothers over here. We got Will Clark over on the other side of the Bay, man. And we were doing some exhibition stuff down in New Orleans. I don't know if you remember that. And they had a big screen, man. It will the thrills on there and he hits a home run and the crowd comes up behind of it. I just, I love that dude, man. Well, I ended up hating playing against you when you were with the Rangers, but I loved you as a teammate, man. One of my all-time favorites. And I think you have just an incredible baseball story, man. And I'd love to hear, first of all, why you started your college career at Mississippi State? You know, so, you know, I was getting recruited by, you know, quite a few schools, and I actually even got drafted in the fourth round coming out of high school. I was in the same draft with Brett Sabrehagen. He was number one, and Steve Balboni was number two, and then I was number four. And, you know, I had never been away from home. I had wanted, you know, the rules to pay for my college education, which I thought I was going to get later on down the road, and they wouldn't do it. So I decided to go to Mississippi State. It wasn't at home. It was about four hours away. My parents could come and see me play on weekends, and then I could get a lot different competition instead of getting guys that I've been playing against since I'm that big. And it wanted to be in a real good choice. I played there years, had a really good career there, and then got drafted first round by the Giants, and then that led to, you know, nine or ten years in the Bay Area with you on the other side of Bay. And then, you know, a few years down the road, I was in Texas, but then you and I became teammates in Baltimore. Now it's so much fun. So, you know, we had a real good team in Baltimore that year. That was '99 and 2000. We had a real good team. But for whatever reason, I don't know why. It just didn't translate to wins on the field. So,
