Somebody asked him why today somebody asked him why it's so hard for guys to stick the landing when it comes to their retirement.

He said, what do you mean stick the landing as far as what?

And the person said, end your career on a perfect note.

This is what he said.

I don't know, but what's perfect?

What defines perfect?

I don't think that's for every individual.

I don't think, you know, I don't think whatever brings you the most happiness is what probably defines perfect for you individually.

It's not to find off wins and losses or championship here, an all-star here or whatever the case may be.

I think it's defined as what makes you happy in your last season.

That's what he said about that.

Here's what's crazy.

I don't really know what makes him happy at this stage.

I think it's still winning.

Sure.

I think part of it is performing.

I think part of it is, is like looking in the mirror and seeing the gray hairs in your beard and like feeling your back ache and, you know, just like the general brain fog that comes with doing this, you know,

1600 some odd times or whatever the number is playing more season than anybody else.

Like, and being like, how much further can I push this?

Right.
