We haven't seen somebody, I don't think, turn down a massive long-term contract to sign a shorter, more aggressive deal.
And so I think throughout that process, we didn't think the odds were very high just because we felt confident he had a big $300-plus million contract and odds were he was going to take it.
So I think until the end, we thought the odds were pretty low.
I mean, I guess a couple things.
One is we are an incredibly healthy organization right now.
We are doing really, really well off the field.
And, you know, it was 12 years ago, 13 years ago, that this organization was in bankruptcy.
And so...
As an organization, we are in a very, very healthy spot.
And we feel a real connection and partnership to our fans.
And that commitment to pouring it back in and...
doing everything we can to win a championship and bring a parade through the streets of Los Angeles.
And so it is that partnership that we have with our fans that is a real driving force.
And I just like the counterfactual to what, you know, or the counterpoint to us having an aggressive payroll is the people who are upset by it just want our owner to pocket more money.
Like I don't understand the other side of it.
Yeah, we are investing in
Our team in a way that with where we are, the core of talent we have, we're not being flippant about it that, hey, this will just happen forever.
Obviously, we are doing all we can to keep one eye on the present and one eye on the future and to be as good as we can be for as long as we can.
But we are in a really special moment in time with the core group of players that we have.
And our mindset is to be aggressive, to kind of back that up and do everything we can to win a championship in 2026.
