And I told him, I said, I need to grow with you as the announcer. But I didn't think I needed a catchphrase. I'm not catchphrase driven. I was more like, it's not what I say, it's how I say it.

If not, I would quit because I just didn't want to be that way. So every day I wake up and I was kidding before, but I'm serious. I look in the mirror and go, it's time. It's time to have the best day that I can possibly have.

But then it got down to the main event, and I realized, hey, everybody's sitting here for five hours watching the show.
