We've seen it, I think, backfire on some people, too.

I mean, people praise his aggressiveness more often than not.

I'm always one of those people who thinks it's more about the process than the result.

It's very easy to say if a play doesn't work, stupid decision.

If a play does work, great move.

Way to be aggressive.

How well does he still relate to the players of today at 62?

What do they view him as?

Do they see him as that dreaded retread label?

Or do they view him as, hey, he's a guy who's won a Super Bowl and has had just as much success, really, as our previous coach in Mike Tomlin.

So that's not really fair that Mason Rudolph is six, five handsome guy with a rocket for an arm.

And he's penning this kind of prose to his former coach.

But yeah, I mean, he talked about his his swagger and kind of like a real life Denzel Washington character walking the practice fields every day on the south side.

We were discussing Joe's basketball coaching.

I'm trying to coach little dribblers, which is like preschoolers through second grade maybe.

Joe's trying to talk about teaching defensive fundamentals.

I can't even teach kids how to dribble.

I mean, it's a plight.

How do you teach dribbling?

I guess a lot of it you just need to have hand-eye coordination, right?
