The secret to surviving a bear attack while hiking is simply being faster than your wife

my wife Jen and I going hike and she's like, 'well I saw on Instagram they get bears out there now.' And I'm like, 'babe, I don't have to be faster than the bear. I just have to be faster than you.' It's not that hard to understand.

It's a joke, though technically being faster than the slowest person does improve survival odds in a predator scenario.

I'm 'too fat' to go by Matt, so use Matthew instead

I'd prefer Matthew. I think I'm a little too fat for Matt. I think Matt's, you know, last six months, they've probably gotten laid.

This is a subjective personal preference.

I'm officially 'washed' after struggling in the home run derby

Tuesday night we hit dingers... but I think I'm officially, officially washed because... I was halfway through the whole competition and I looked at the leaderboard and it was like me, Titus, Chief, Brandon... every guy who's 37 plus. I was maxing out everything I had and it wasn't that good.

The definition of being 'washed' is subjective and relates to personal physical performance expectations.

This will be determined at the conclusion of the 2024 high school football season.

Teams that play hard are guaranteed to stay in the game

There was a veteran coach at Ohio State... he said, 'man, your guys would play hard.' I didn't realize how good that felt when he said 'your guys play hard.' So I always try to carry that through. If you play hard, you're gonna be in the game.

It's a foundational football belief, though talent often overcomes simple effort in the NFL.

I would not lose to Luke Fickell in a street fight

I do not believe if it was a street fight that I would lose to [Luke Fickell]. [Even though he's an elite wrestler], that is not a sanctioned wrestling event. I'm intimidating. I'm bigger than him. I would not lose.

This is a hypothetical street fight between two friends/coaches that will never happen.

Bill Belichick's football knowledge is great for media and TV

I think there's just so much knowledge there and the way that he can articulate it and he explains it. And those are, when I watched him briefly in those media opportunities, that's what we felt like. That's kind of what we got in a team meeting was this overall history of football.

Belichick's 2024 media appearances (Draft, Manningcast) have been widely praised for exactly the reasons Vrabel cited.
