A
Hello
there
once
again
and
welcome
to
the
mayor's
magazine,
I'm
Mick
Cornett,
the
mayor
of
Oklahoma
City.
Thank
you
for
joining
us
on
this
first
show
of
2013
our
January
addition.
We
have
kind
of
a
sports
theme
going
here
early
on
in
the
mayor's
magazine
this
month
and
jordan.
Eberle
is
with
us
east,
with
the
oklahoma
city
barons
Jordan.
Welcome
to
the
mayor's
magazine,
thanks
for
having
me
20
years
old,
an
NHL
all-star
last
year.
Tell
me
your
initial
thoughts
on
Oklahoma,
City
and
being
part
of
our
community.
B
Well,
first
off
I
was
really
excited.
You
know,
obviously,
with
the
NHL
not
thing
on.
It
is
a
good
chance
to
continue
playing
hockey
league
said
I'm,
a
young
guy,
so
I
still
have
a
lot
to
learn
and
a
lot
to
develop.
So
you
know
Oklahoma's
great
city,
a
lot
of
nice
people
here
and
we're
starting
gets
a
pretty
good
fan,
so
I've
enjoyed
it
yeah.
A
B
And
we
have
we
have
such
young
team
in
Edmonton,
so
we've
actually
sent
a
few
guys
down,
and
it's
good
I
mean
we
a
lot
of
our
core
guys
that
are
going
to
be
the
big
guys
in
Edmonton
get
to
come
down
here.
So
it's
good
we're
gaining
chemistry
on
off
the
ice
and,
like
I
said,
we've
really
enjoyed
it
down
here.
Okay,.
A
B
A
B
A
B
Is
a
little
bit
different,
actually
kind
of
nice
for
a
change.
You
know
you're
in
Edmonton,
people
are
always
asking
you
when,
with
a
power
player
the
you
know,
what's
going
off
the
team
or
whatever,
but
you
come
down
here
nominee
people
know
it's
a
definitely
a
hawk
or
a
football
and
basketball
town
so
I've
definitely
taken
it
missed
the
sooner
game.
But
we
went
to
a
few
Thunder
games
and
really
enjoyed
that
too.
All.
A
Right,
let
me
brag
on
you
a
little
bit.
Jordan
was
an
all-star
last
year
in
the
NHL.
It
was
his
second
year
in
the
league.
He
finished
his
second
season
with
the
Oilers,
with
a
team-leading
34
goals,
42
assists,
which
adds
up
to
76
points
in
the
entire
league.
He
ranked
16th
and
goals
and
points
in
2012
and
as
we
tape.
A
B
And
I
welcome
four
candidates.
It's
huge.
We
watch
that
tournament
at
Christmas.
It's
like
it's
a
religion,
so
yeah
I
played
on
the
team
twice
when
I
was
18
and
19
and
we
won
when
I
was
eight
to
be
lost
when
I
was
19,
but
I'd
played
pretty
well
in
the
tournament
and
I
guess
was
the
top
guy
I
guess
on
the
pole.
Only.
A
B
It's
definitely
a
lot
warmer,
especially
during
hockey
season.
You
know
I'm
used
to
minus
20
weather,
but
you
know
what
it
like.
I
said:
people
are
very
friendly.
You
know
you've
really
enjoyed
going
to
Thunder
games
and
watching
the
Sooners
play
and-
and
you
know
it-
for
the
lifestyle
it's
much
actually
much
like
Canada,
like
I,
said
people
very
laid
back,
and
you
know,
like
I
said
before
I
enjoyed
it
and.
B
Know
what
the
skill
level
here
is
great.
You
know
people
don't
really
recognize
how
good
a
talent
they
have
and
even
for
the
hockey
team
here,
it's
very
underrated.
The
league
that
this
isn't
especially
this
year,
spence
there's
so
many
guys
coming
down
from
the
end
each
other.
The
league's
been
very
good,
so
you
know
I've
definitely
had
some
tough
nights
and
some
good
night.
So
it's
it's
a
it's
a
rollercoaster.
It's
usually
how
it
is
in
hockey.
B
We
had
our
teddy
bear
toss,
the
other
night
and
yeah.
I
think
we
had
6,000
people,
so
it's
it's
been
good.
I
think
we're
starting
to
get
a
little
more
recognized
sort
of
the
community,
and
you
know
with
with
a
lot
of
few
NHL
guys
being
here.
Our
team
doing
well,
I
think
it's
just
going
to
get
better
now.
B
It's
tough
to
say,
you
know
I
think,
they're
running
out
of
time
here
to
get
a
leak
started,
but
you
know
I
don't
want
to
say.
Well,
I
don't
want
to
get
out
of
here,
but
you
know
be
nice
to
the
league
to
start
but,
like
I
said
I've,
it's
been
good
so
far
and
I'd
love
to
stay
here
too
and
continue
playing
hockey
for
the
barons
and.
B
A
B
B
B
C
B
B
Know
we
were
talking
with
us
earlier
and
hockey
is
a
there's.
There's
usually
a
couple
tough
guys
in
each
team
that
kind
of
keep
the
peace.
So
we
know
we
definitely
have
a
few
and
you
guys
want
to
take
runs
at
us,
usually
ends
off
in
a
fight,
so
at
the
end
of
the
day,
guys
are
friends
with
each
other
in
the
face.
It's
a
respect
level
to.
A
B
You
know
what,
for
me,
I've
never
really
tried
to
focus
on
the
goalie.
You
know
you
just
kind
of
shoot
where
you
see
open
or
whatnot,
but
I
mean
for
sure
some
goal.
Isn't
the
biggest
thing
is
how
big
they're,
especially
nowadays,
our
equipment
and
and
they're
definitely
growing
its
size.
It
seems
like
everything,
we're
playing
it's
a
six
flat
goaltender.
So
you
know
it
can
be
tough,
but
you
know
you
just
kind
of
shoot
very
open.
You
try
not
to
worry
about
what
they're
going
to
do.
How.
B
I'm
sure
it
is
with
every
sport
the
way
the
technology
is
nowadays,
you
know
before
Game
you
pretty
much
know
exactly
how
they're
going
to
play
most
teams
play
very
similar
as
far
as
their
systems
on
the
ice
and
the
power
play
and
special
teams,
but
you
know
we
definitely
go
over
for
at
least
you
know,
20
to
15
minutes
for
every
game
on
each
team.
So
it's
definitely
in
depth.
How.
B
Involved,
our
coaches
are
usually
down
here
and,
like
I,
said,
with
technology,
they
can
watch
every
game
from
wherever
they
are
so
like.
We
have
a
lot
of
guys
that
are
going
to
be
household
names
and
edmondson
soon,
so
they're
definitely
keeping
tabs
on
us
to
make
sure
we're
developing
the
right
way
and
how.
A
B
For
sure
we
have
guys
that
you
know
work
on,
you
know
coming
down
and
helping
us
do
stuff,
whether
it's
faceoffs
or
one
timers
or
whatever
it
is.
You
know
they
do
a
good
job,
developing
players.
So
I
think
that,
like
I
said,
we
have
a
good
young
team
and
there's
a
lot
of
guys
that
are
going
to
be
big
parts,
and
it's
good
that
we're
all
down
here.
Working
together.
All.
A
Be
able
to
see
Jordan
and
his
teammates
throughout
the
hockey
season,
down
at
the
Center
and
I'm
sure,
Jordan
and
them
would
appreciate,
let's
fill
up
the
arena
for
them
this
season,
and
we
certainly
wish
the
the
NHL
the
best
and
would
love
to
see
them
back
playing,
but
in
the
meantime,
were
the
beneficiaries
and
Jordan
thanks
for
coming
our
community
and
being
such
a
great
role
model
for
our
kids.
Thank
you
all
right,
we'll
be
back
for
more
the
mayor's
magazine
right
after
this.
C
Did
you
know
one-third
of
an
average
landfill
is
made
up
of
packaging
material?
Why
be
part
of
the
problem?
Recycling
is
as
easy
as
rinsing
and
throwing
no
need
to
sort
set
out
the
little
blue
bin
on
your
regular
trash
day.
Now
it
even
pays
to
recycle
each
week.
One
lucky
Oklahoma,
City
resident
will
win
one
hundred
dollars
just
for
setting
out
their
little
blue
bin
full
of
the
proper
recyclable
materials.
Be
part
of
the
solution
start
recycling
today
welcome.
A
D
A
A
D
That
doesn't
happen
so
after
that
I
was
drafted
to
the
Baltimore
Ravens
in
the
first
round
and
went
up
there
and
actually
built
Baltimore
East,
we
had
a
it
was
me:
Dan,
Cody
went
in
the
second
round,
Kelly
Gregg
was
their
choreography.
Was
there
got
a
good
time,
a
great
locker
room
and
you
know,
but
those
guys,
of
course
it
was.
It
was
cool
to
have
them
as
teammates
really.
D
Yeah,
oh
yeah,
I
mean
my
first
year.
We
only
16
games,
but
it
was
it
was
it
was.
It
was
really
fun.
I
got
there
and
that's
Ricky.
You
got
Deion
Sanders
Ray,
Lewis,
Jonathan,
Ogden
Suggs,
every
all
these
Hall
of
Fame.
You
know
guys
it
just
it
made
the
year-ago
fast,
but
it
made
it
fun
for
me
like
just
to
be
an
NFL
and
being
his
presence.
So
it
was
a
good
that's
a
good
time
and.
D
Following
the
stent
I
was
there
five
years
and
after
that,
I
was
traded
to
st.
Louis
Rams
in
st.
Louis
I
played
my
first
five
games
with
Sam
Bradford
was
it
was
a
great
five
and
the
fifth
game
I
got
injured
and
was
out
for
the
rest
of
the
year
and
I
was
able
to
come
back
the
next
year
and
unfortunately
get
injured
again,
and
so
here
we
are
a
year
after
that.
Out
of
football
is
a
free
agent
and
now
training
to
go
back.
Talk.
A
D
Sam
is
he
has
a
quiet
confidence
about
him,
but
his
ability
to
retain
knowledge
is
tremendous.
I
remember,
you
know
when
I
first
got
there
actually
excuse
me
the
call
that
I
made
to
him
and
tell
him
that
I
was
getting
traded
to
st.
Louis.
He
he
thought
I
was
lying
I'm,
not
really
like
of
it.
We
had
talked
about
it.
You
know,
I
was
here,
training
prior
to
him
getting
drafted
and
I
was
like
man.
D
I'ma
come
play
with
you
one
day
like
yeah
that'd
be
tight
and
so
to
get
trade
there
was
pretty
cool,
but
what
I
saw
and
from
the
officer
coordinate
he
was
telling
me
like
look
Sam
is
it's
going
to
be
special
Sam
has
the
ability
to
retain
so
much
knowledge
and
he
gets
the
game
so
we're
just
gonna.
Let
him
rip
you
know
just
let
him
fly
and
our
first
game
man.
We
we
threw
about
55
times.
Oh
I,
like.
D
From
Baltimore
as
a
receiver-
and
you
don't-
you
know,
I'd
like
10
catches
or
something
like
that-
I
was
like
yeah
I
could
use
this
real
fast,
but
he
was
able
to
adjust
and
pick
it
up
in
a
way
that
was
I
was
really
impressive.
Having
played
in
Baltimore
with
steve,
mcnair
and
Joe
Flacco
as
a
rookie,
and
then
you
know
to
see
him
come
in
as
a
Rick
in
and
play.
The
way
he
played
was
was
very
impressive
advances.
A
D
My
injuries
were
significant
and
I
mean
it
was
ruptured,
patella
tendon,
you
know,
kneecap
comes
up
in
the
I
quad
area,
and
so
they
have
to
go
back
and
tie
that
down
three
microfracture
surgery.
They
drill
holes
in
your
bone
to
kind
of
help
you
create
another
cushion
for
cartilage
and
two
other
clean
outs,
and
so
the
chances
are
they're
not
great,
but
there
are
there
is
a
chance
and
for
me
it's
about
you
know
doing
the
story
and
I've
always
been
a
hard
worker
since
I.
D
Still
for
that,
you
know
campus
in
at
Oklahoma
University.
That's
one
of
the
things
that
the
coaches
saw.
That
I
would,
you
know,
put
everything
in
and
do
what
I
had
to
do
to
go
to
the
next
level
or
produce
or
help
our
team
win,
and
so
likewise,
even
now,
I
feel
like
I'm
still
leaving
a
legacy
and
the
journey
back
and
the
path
back
will
be
daunting
and
long
and
tedious
and
tough.
But
it's
possible
and
I
know
like
getting
back,
will
create
a
story
for
somebody
else
that
they
can.
A
D
I've
recovered
well
by
the
grace
of
god,
I'm
able
to
run
and
do
my
regular
training
and
everything,
and
so
at
this
point,
I'm
feeling
I'm
feeling
good
and
I'm.
Looking
at
you
know,
four
to
six
months
of
being
able
to
just
focus
on
strengthening
and
doing
my
training,
and
you
know
getting
back
out
of
the
bout
of
summertime.
I.
A
Think,
as
our
audience
can
tell
you're
a
wonderful
role
model
for
you
know
a
lot
of
young
people
who
who
desperately
need
role
models.
What
what
do
you
offer
junior
high
or
high
school
aged
kids?
Who
might
not
be
all
that
interested
in
school
might
be
me
looking
at
other
opportunities
for
for
for
having
fun?
Why
should
they
focus
on
the
things
that
grown-ups
are
typically
telling
them
to
focus
on?
That
is
school
and
hard
work
and
being
on
time
and
all
of
those
attributes?
D
And
it's
tough
with
the
atmosphere
in
the
environment
that
you're
in
with
your
friends-
and
you
know
you
kind
of
want
to
fit
in
or
you
know
feel
significant
or
whatever
that
may
be,
but
life
goes
and
it
goes
fast
and
and
then
it's
it's
like
early
I.
Look
at
him
like
if
I
was
you
know,
sowing
seeds
or
or
doing
things
from
a
responsibility
standpoint,
and
you
know
I
wasn't
out
wasting
time
and
I
wasn't
out.
A
D
Know
that
my
group
of
friends
coming
out
of
high
school
there
was
there
was
about
six
of
us.
There
hung
together
closely
and
we
all
desire
to
you
know
probably
professional
sports
or
to
be
successful
at
you
know
what
it
was
that
we
were
doing
and
actually
I
was
the
only
one
that
was
able
to
make
it
to
the
level
that
I've
made
it
to
and
a
lot
of
those
guys
or
a
lot
of
guys.
D
That
I
was
around
did
things
that,
in
a
costume
whether
it
was
from
a
character
or
attitude
standpoint
or
a
decision
that
put
them
in
jail
or
whatever
it
was
costume.
The
talent
and
the
ability
that
they
had
they
couldn't
they
didn't
they
wouldn't
allow
to.
You
know,
show
it
or
use
it
to
progress,
so
the
decisions
that
they
may
and
that
you
know
we
all
make
collectively
influence
our
future
and
we
don't
know
what
that
is,
and
we
don't
see
that.
But
you
know
listening
to
the
people
who
are
telling
you
these
things
responsibility.
A
You
have
people
in
your
life
that
were
there
helping
to
serve
as
a
good
role
models
for
you.
Do
you
have
family
members
or
mentors
close
by
who
had
who
had
gone
to
college
or
who
had
who
had
acted
responsibly?
What
was
the
difference?
Why
did?
Why
did
you
choose
this
path
and
others
choose
other
paths?
I.
D
Have
my
mom
pushed
me
in
school,
my
grandma
I'll
pray.
For
me
I
was
the
first
person
to
go
to
college.
We
didn't
have
week.
I
grew
up
in
north
highlands
a
little
bit
and
then
we
moved
to
Texas.
I
was
about
the
fifth
grade,
so
the
my
thought
process
college.
Wasn't
there
like
I,
didn't
plan
on
going
to
college,
but
the
opportunity
came
through.
You
know
sports
and
even
then,
like
football
I
was
on
dream.
A
Most
guys
by
the
time
they're
juniors
are
committing
to
colleges
these
days
it
may
giving
verbal
commitments
to
you
know
the
better
universities.
What
happened
during
that
junior
year
or
in
the
offseason
before
your
senior
year,
that
elevated
you
two
up
to
a
person
who
would
sign
a
letter
of
intent
with
Oklahoma.
D
D
D
A
D
D
Texas
A&M
is
where
they
doing
that
or
the
state
championship
of
that,
and
so
they
had
about
64
teams
and
we
went
down
and
we
made
it.
I
want
to
send
to
the
top
16,
and
you
know
from
there.
I
was
when
I
got
my
first
kind
of
letter
of
we
seen.
You
know
your
Italian,
that
was
from
Texas
A&M
and
I
mean
that
I
did.
A
D
A
I
will
fast
forward.
You
became
one
of
the
best
receivers
in
big
12
and
university
of
oklahoma
history.
So
congratulations
all
that
I
hate
to
compress
all
those
great
successes
in
two
into
one
sentence:
I,
don't
want
to
give
you
a
chance
to
talk
about
what
you're
doing
now.
What
are
you
doing
here
in
the
offseason
and
and
as
you
look
ahead
toward
a
career
after
football?
What
are
you
thinking.
D
Definitely
so
changing
that
body,
composition
and
until
I
feel
I've
trained.
You
know
all
my
life
and
I
like
nothing,
nothing
impacts
the
body
like
nutrition,
yeah
I
mean
you
can
go
run
and
workout.
You
can
do
that
if
you're
not
eating
right,
you're
not
going
to
see
anything,
and
so
you
know
taking
curly
from
the
inside
out.
It's
definitely
you
know
the
way
to
go
when
you're
looking
at
it.
So
we
encourage
people
to
you
know,
make
the
lifestyle
change
from
that
perspective.
Alright.
A
F
A
Welcome
back
to
the
mayor's
magazine,
Eric
winger,
our
public
works
director
is
our
guest
for
this
last
segment.
Welcome
back
to
the
mayor's
magazine,
Thank
You
mayor,
we're
going
to
have
you
talk
about
project
180
and
for
the
uninformed.
That's
basically
the
downtown
project
that
has
allowed
us
to
redesign
streets
and
parks,
and
it's
been
it's
been
wonderful,
but
at
the
same
time
it's
been
a
little
bit
troublesome
and,
and
you
kind
of
a
a
many
hachey
where
I've
been
the
guy,
that's
been
kind
of
overlooking
that
so
kind
of
give
us
an
update.
G
Seen
a
lot
of
progress
in
2012
we're
finishing
up
the
last
of
the
current
packages
in
the
street
escapes
it
is
under
construction.
So
there's
been
a
lot
of
inconvenience
for
downtown,
but
we're
starting
to
reopen
streets.
Just
this
past
Monday
we
reopened
hudson
avenue,
but
to
two-way
traffic.
So
there's
some
new
things
happening
downtown,
not
just
with
the
improved
sidewalks
with
the
trees,
but
actually
changing
the
traffic
flow
as
well.
G
So
as
we
as
we
round
that
out
and
as
we
look
at
the
new
Mary
botanical
gardens
with
its
new
ice
rink,
obviously
it's
a
an
attraction.
This
December
looking
at
the
new
bicentennial
park,
which
was
just
recently
completed
and
its
new
fountain,
we
are
looking
into
2013
with
a
lot
of
projects,
so
we're
proceeding
and
with
presentations
being
finalized.
A
G
G
That
would
be
much
different
than
what
we've
seen
in
the
past,
where
we've
allowed
the
contractor
to
do
a
lot
more
demolition
than
that
in
the
future,
but
we're
also
looking
to
install
new
barricades
and
new
different
types
of
wall
systems
to
keep
pedestrian
safety,
an
access
open
during
construction,
limiting
the
contractor
to
work
inside
of
certain
areas
and
then,
of
course,
just
trying
to
make
it
as
least
invasive
as
possible.
There's
going
to
be
continued
inconvenience,
construction
always
is,
but
we
can
make
it
better
than
what
we've
seen
in
the
past.
A
lot.
A
A
G
Have
some
maps
but
I
would
say
the
accuracy
is,
is
lacking
as
well.
Sometimes
it's
very
easy.
When
you
look
at
a
sewer
line,
there's
manhole
covers
that
are
easy
to
identify
those,
but
with
other
utilities
their
unmarked
they're,
buried
they've
been
buried
for
years.
It's
what's
really
not
until
we
can
get
down
in
there
and
actually
see
where
they're
at
that
we
truly
find
their
location.
G
But
we've
learned
a
lot
and
I
think
as
we
as
we
limit
the
amount
of
construction
that
we
allow
a
contractor
to
go
out
ahead
on
it's
going
to
really
limit
that
exposure.
I
think
our
risk
will
greatly
decrease.
We've
had
some
outages,
we've
had
gas
lines
hit,
we've
had
water
lines
broken
that
may
still
happen,
but
we
were
going
to
try
to
minimize
it.
The
best
we
can
are.
G
Know
I
think
one
of
the
things-
that's
maybe
not
surprising,
to
many
that
are
still
in
the
city,
but
we're
still
pulling
out
a
lot
of
the
old
streetcar
rail
that
was
original
to
Oklahoma
City
decades
ago.
I
would
expect
that
we'll
probably
pull
out
additional
track,
but
again
it's
not
track
that
can
be
reused.
It's
been
buried
under
layers
of
asphalt
but
we'll
be
putting
new
track
in
as
a
part
of
a
course
maps.
Three,
that's
probably
one
of
the
fines
other
than
that,
I
would
say.
G
A
So
it's
every
day
is
an
adventure.
It
is
all
right.
Eric,
winger,
thanks

the
show
