A hundred percent. I mean, that's, Jimmy Butler has always viewed it as my way or the highway. That's been how he's been from day one in the league. He is definitely a very talented player. And I think he's a guy you could build and win around, but he is difficult in the way that he expects everything to be done his way.

And sometimes that can be good where you're picking up your teammates and getting them all to play at the same level of excellence that you bring to the table. And I think that could sometimes be an asset. But I think in his case, there's also some negative where he does wear his welcome more quickly than the average NBA player.

And it seems like he's certainly a little bit difficult to work with as well.

um so i i have to pick the e i have to pick the chiefs sorry not the eagles um i i don't see a different way around it i i'm not betting against patrick mahomes period if he loses uh he loses but i'm not betting against him and it's one of those things as you know i was at the bill's chiefs game and was quietly and not so quietly hoping the bill's would get it done.

I have some loyalty to the Bills, having grown up in Toronto and a lot of my friends are Bills fans. But when the Bills got the ball back with three minutes to go, you know, I wasn't sitting there certain Josh Allen would get the win. But if the Chiefs are down three on Sunday and they get the ball back,

But if the Chiefs are down three on Sunday and they get the ball back,

I'd be happy to bet anyone, whatever they want, that the Chiefs are winning that game because I just don't see Mahomes not getting it done when the Chiefs are down and the game's on the line. And so with Mahomes, who I think is the best player in the game, I think they're going to win. I do think Saquon Barkley is a major difference maker for the Eagles. I don't think he should be taken lightly.

And what he's done this year is frankly incredible. But between the fact that I just think so highly of Mahomes and I frankly hate the Eagles. So maybe there's a bit of my heart in it as well. I am certainly pulling for the Chiefs and frankly think the Chiefs are going to win. And to your question about, you know, where Mahomes fits.

in the greatest of all time discussion, I think the gap between Tom Brady and him is much closer than many people would like to acknowledge. And if Mahomes gets it done on Sunday, so he's got four titles and the first ever Super Bowl III, Pete, I think those scales are starting to look pretty even and Mahomes is likely going to pass it.

I mean, statistically, if you look at their first, you know, eight years in the league, 10 years in the league, whatever Mahomes has been in the league, he's already far surpassed Brady statistically. It's not even close. The league's a little different. Maybe he's got some better talent, but it's not close.

So if he starts stacking up the wins just as well, and he's already got three, and this could be a three-peated four in a very short tenure, I think it's hard not to have him legitimately in that discussion.

Critically important. I think it is critically important. Coaching, just like having good executives, good leadership in a successful business is important. It's not the whole ballgame. You need to have a good team, but it's critically important. Coaching in the NFL is absolutely important. Some of it is just the confidence factor.
