Hey, I've been wondering about a lot of things over
the first nine weeks of the NFL season
and Lions players have helped out at every turn.
But what is Woody wondering about today?
For that answer, we turn to Lions linebacker Malcolm Rodriguez
in this encounter brought to you by Bill Brown Ford.
Time now for some fun stuff, and that's Woody Wonders.
And I'm wondering about a lot of things with the Lions going overseas.
And here to talk about it is linebacker Malcolm Rodriguez.
How you doing, Rodrigo?
Doing good. Appreciate you having me.
Fantastic.
Hey, listen, question number one.
Coach Campbell said he's bringing a change
of underwear and a pair of shorts to Germany.
What are you packing for the trip?
It's going to be a little chilly, so I
might have to get a little long sleeve.
Definitely some underwear, maybe more than a couple pairs.
And, yeah, I just think that's about it.
All right.
Can you guess what Dankeschön means?
Dankeschön.
Yeah.
Is it a food?
No, it's German. It's just a saying. It's not a food.
Oh. Welcome?
Well, it's close. It means thank you very much.
Oh, thank you very much.
So you'll probably be saying that a lot. Dankeschön. Dankeschön.
Hey, besides a victory, what
is the perfect souvenir to bring home from Germany?
What's happening?
I guess...
I don't know.
I don't really...
Get yourself a big beer steiner.
No, no beer.
I can't say beer.
I don't drink no beer.
Okay, then fine.
What about a pretzel?
A pretzel, yes.
A pretzel would be good.
All right, there you go.
Hey, is it important for the NFL to grow internationally?
What do you think about that?
Of course.
I think it's a big part of the game
and kind of expanding, just like soccer.
So it's one of those things where we're going
international and expanding for all other
fans to check something new out.
You mentioned soccer.
They play a different kind of football in Germany.
Could you survive playing a 90-minute soccer game?
Oh, probably not.
Different type of conditions.
If the Lions had a German rap album, who would get the lead verse?
A German rap album?
Definitely Saint, right?
I guess.
I don't know.
I don't know.
Hey, finish this sentence.
Hey, Germany, you better watch out because the Lions are bringing...
One pride.
One pride.
There you go.
And you know what?
For that, all I have to say is,
Zuruk Zudea.
Oh yeah.
Zudea.
Apparently that phrase means back to you in German
and we'll keep rolling on with our pregame preparation.
We'll definitely get back out to Munich, Germany,
but we've got a few more surprises in store for you fans
and we'll reveal it all when we come right back.
