Rice stops prior to the chorus to the tell the crowd, "There's a part in this song, (it) talks in the second verse, 'Not everybody understands how we make it, hold it together when we feel like breakin.' And there's a football team in this state I'm sure that's got a lot of guys hurting pretty bad this week.

"But that's what this song's about. Not everybody understands how we make it, hold it together when we feel like breakin.' But I'm sure them boys this week are figuring it out, and they're going to move forward and give you one helluva season in the name of Sam. I want to sing that chorus one more time. This is for him, man."
