Also liked how he learned from his dad to take care of the staff behind the scenes. Brett Favre was once asked by a young teammate about how to be successful, and his advice wasn’t about some special training technique or secret trick. He told him to learn the name of everyone in the building because they are the ones who will take care of you.
You can talk about culture but it’s only as good as the guys who are in the room and asked to live it and Chucky gets it. I bet he’s learning a lot from Gio and I’m glad he’s a Flame.
