Thank you for allowing me to be on your show.

Well, I don't know about that.

I don't know how much knowledge I have, but we'll try to talk and figure it out and see what's what.

Well, I think when you think about the Seattle situation and Sam Donaldson, it's going to be a great story.

I think it encapsulates just the ability to never give up on yourself and to continue to bet on yourself.

I can remember saying that when I was a father, I told my kids, my daughters, I said, you always got to have enough gumption to bet on yourself regardless of what other people may say.

And he's been able to do that.

And now he finds himself in the Super Bowl with Seattle, obviously.

And you look at the other situation with the...

You know, Patriots, everyone during the season was saying, well, they got an easy schedule and their schedule is their schedule.

But at the end of the day, their schedule, they won all those games to get to where they're at.

And they started a young quarterback that basically ran them to the Super Bowl.

He didn't pass his way to the Super Bowl.

He actually ran them to the Super Bowl and good for them as well.

Well, I mean, you know, being a coach and being a player, I mean, those are the things that happen in games, and I think they're obviously more magnified when you're playing a game of this stature.

You know, you're playing a championship game or a playoff game, and when the outcome is not what you like, people are going to look back not only on the play of the players but decisions that maybe some coaches made.

In retrospect, I think we can always second-guess coaches.

I know when you're in the moment,

That's when you try to make the decision.

I've always said this.
