Gary starts off by saying that he never dwells on his career in regards to if he was good enough or not to make it into the hall of fame. He says hes just honored to be apart of the names in the Hall of fame and that it hasn't fully sunk in yet for him.
Ed asks what it was like when Gary started and he had to rebuild the team. Gary says that he started in 1989 and it was great since then.
