I don't know. For us, we caught ourselves doing it. I feel like I'm one of the first guys to start doing it that I know. And then I'll start telling my other teammates when I go corner them, like, let's do the same thing. And they'll like it, too. But, yeah, there's not a lot of guys that just โ€“ I know a lot of guys that just like hitting mitts.

But then I was like, I was telling myself, I got to listen to rap music. I got to curse as I'm in the back. And I'm like trying to hit myself to hide myself up. But because I feel like I'm too calm.
