Okay.
Yeah.
In fact, took a post-it note and wrote mossed on it and put it on his forehead.
So when he scored a touchdown, he could lift up his bangs and say like he mossed his opponent.
none of these kids knew who randy moss was none of them they didn't even know that the moss term had a randy in front of it or whatever and to me that's like this is somebody who's transcended the game right this is somebody who like it's not randy moss was not the first receiver who was ever fast and a great jumper with great hands who did these things but he became the definition
of this thing this thing that kids want to do right when they play receiver they want to moss people they want to use like pure athleticism to simply out catch if that's a term their opponent you know that's meaningful to me you when you see someone do that in a game when you're watching just any football game and you see a guy do that it's like he mossed him that's like a randy moss type thing and i would argue that whenever you see anyone running the football
you're kind of seeing Jim Thorpe.
That the essence of that, the essence of being faster and stronger and more agile and more nimble than your opponent, in this sort of like real kind of DNA of the sport, I think it probably does go back to that.
And he's playing at a time when like, I mean, you know, it was with rice, you know, he plays with these two great quarterbacks, but then even at the end, I mean, like,
You know, absolutely.
I mean, you know, I, I think that it would be, you could still make, you know, cause you can use different arguments for this.
I mean, that's one of the things like I, there, there are different ways to think about these things.
I'm presenting my way of thinking about this.
Well, yeah, I, I see.
I think it's, I just think it's weird to have a hero as an adult.
Like, like I, as a, as a, as a, as a man, I shouldn't see another man heroically, even if they're doing heroic things.
It's like, that's just now.
Right.
You need heroes when you're eight and the hero you're here when you're eight is your hero for life.
So Roger Staubach is my hero for life.
