Risha right here with you on CBS sports radio and right now on the eve of our guest.

Then a post season has started already but when get ready for NFL football on Sunday. Right now would be drawn by someone who's a dear friend is a Special Olympics champion ambassador.

He is also of Vegas Raiders wide receiver we pattern here on the show is my main man Matt Collins Mech how are you brother. I'm doing great in our government. No doubt about this.

This is good to have you back on the show will going to talk about some of the amazing things that that you do with them for Special Olympics, including physical gaming event that's going to take place tomorrow and next weekend will get into that obviously everybody this is the first football Friday for the start of the season we saw the game last night.

The Rams and the bills got us all set.

How are you feeling here on a Friday night. I'm feeling good now this is that this is what what we going to afford the last who knows how long. Feels like it was too much for the training For this weekend to those around him to get there. As I later got a good bet that it stressed the arms are going in today's nesting, the super excited to put a lot of work and all the guys ready to go get somebody in a different calendar, no doubt about that Raiders. Your new team is going to take on the charges will have a chance and opportunity to see that how does it feel putting on that that that black and that sober man are you are you waiting for that all yeah my very first glance over his silver black automatics is okay don't know where I was. I was at fault is super excited freezes one vapor on you know, I guess your six same feel as one is red one is a real building. So it is really exciting prompt for the first time on Sunday and go little more man you talk about your brother Matt Collins is joining us your CBSSports regular general sport.

Risha your offense is stacked your wide receiver room to stack the gods with their hands or stack.

Renfro received the box, a bear, you got down Waller on the squad as well and him to get to you guys, squeezing it so that that that goober at that time talk about all the receivers and hands and the office. Did you guys have right now that I think was was great about our room on the room as well is the whole offense in general is our ability to push each other. We have a lot of guys that have actually guys who have histories incessantly but we don't have anybody who's comfortable with where they are or feels like they're just supposed to be handed anything that's not been the leader for years and I've seen that on others either heard of it, is when on other teams and it's just not a recipe for success of no nothing.

And it's even misleading. Nothing is given to you. Nothing is easy in his leg so that you know to be in a room and on a team of a bunch of guys that work hard and push each other. It's really exciting is it gives you some of the wake of get out of bed work for Special Olympics champion ambassador Matt, see with the CBSSports radio radio what happened and that Wilbur man hung around from a gentle squeeze up in Toyota Camry you guys what you just 6 foot four by yourself man but I'll say this to the data when your ovaries is a good fit for people only have four people out walk on what it is but I'm not I'm not an XL and we don't have 67 people, but it did happen to be probably the smallest car in all of Canton, Ohio, and we listen, we just talk Internet memories.

Okay well I mean come on y'all about a foot bigoted meeting all are not yellow, not for people size. So next time get it off they went over what will pool our money. Is this a change together and over. No doubt about it. Listen man.

The guy was going to be throwing you football Derek car. You seen him, just be all business. How's it feel being on the receiving end of his pants right now. It's great and he's not as much is a great opportunity is a great guy and that matters a lot to examine his ability to interact with any person in any player. How genuine is everybody is really nice to see no digit of a little :-) you want to talk there want to hang out. There is a great dude in this case a great family, great and just brings a great energy. You know you can just feel vibrant energy what they say what another way they treat you as they walk around looking at a map, see with Las Vegas Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver talk about Derek.

I remember the minute he got drafted.

I was one of the first people that interviewed him. The second he got drafted on.

We did that for herself.

It's nice to see his progression and I wish you would've right is not, but success member to talk about him being the good guy Matt you're a good guy, Special Olympics champion ambassador of the employee work was Special Olympics over the years my media for the movement for and working to talk about gaming for inclusion. But why a Special Olympics organization that you work so closely with multiple reasons, but I think I started out.

I've always had a connection to it.

I had a neighbor with an election of the disability is going had a roommate ecology base is basically rather have intellectual disabilities session of exactly and then throughout my career in the NFL at my relationship to our knowledge, and an investor has has grown with specialist and I just fall more more just that place the people involved with the Asus subnet makes me happy. And a selfish reason that I do. It makes me happy to be there hang out that Boston competing to see how close that that bridge that he will say there is between us really is is not as smart parties, it may seem work with all people manage just what it boils down to beings where all people, but I talked for living. I can't run and catch footballs would be an athlete like you and your very well read your more than an athlete.

Your your human being started book clubs, your doing work was Special Olympics over talking about here. You also a gamer man in Special Olympics as something amazing that's going to take place tomorrow and then next Saturday as well. Talk to us about gaming for inclusion. Yeah, this is this is this is a big initiative discussion of axis really got behind in creating and got behind going into the second year and really I say this is something that kind of one of the few good things that came out of coated in being on lockdown. Is this opportunity to continue to close the gap between people with disabilities and without because it gives people happy to see that those with election in light of this is the exact same thing that a lasting and when you see 76 gaming if you didn't know if you are let out of our business to anything you say their professional gamer. The way that are able to be liked is when every mad weather as rapidly as for my rather discarded by EB shot the exact same reaction that I see people when they first come to a special like any type of sports event and there in shock the same exact act is what I see with the game for inclusion in its so incredible to see that that's another is bracing back to see some of his life changed in the whole perspective on those intellectual disabilities change writer Mac I'm smart enough to not even try to play against anybody.

I will stand there and watch on though if I tried to play.

I get my behind him. It's of the out of sitdown and watch that that is on this. What I do. As I walked in I see the best and I just started this time I'll answer their squad.

There's nothing wrong with that background, Raiders wide receivers joining us and so gaming for inclusion is going to take place tomorrow it's going to stream on Microsoft's switch platform and next week it will actually be the celebrity showcase so people who compete tomorrow.

We have some other people is the big deal Matt Twiss has become this huge thing in for the specialist build a partner with Microsoft.

Stefan W. Lee*Mozart that would never happen because video gaming was weird it was that way I people that are never to be successful. Do not lock your house in two years and although she would have been getting really successful.

I gaming are now coming out of the back and as the successful people that are getting sponsorships that are getting paid are making a living off of video games and was great is that that opportunity is now opening up for those with disabilities.
