But then you realize when he says something and he references you that it becomes a huge story. I reached out to him after and said, thank you for making those comments. We've never actually spoken about that. But I also then was putting myself in his shoes again, which I've tried to do since we had some tough beginnings in LA. Yeah. it's a tough situation he came into. Right.

And I can understand why either he or the club or the team or everyone thought it would be best for him for all the reasons to be the captain. But it was, it was interesting to hear him upon reflection say, you know, that, that was a regret. And, It was the right thing ultimately because the team needed to believe in him and have him guide in that way.

It's funny because I was telling you earlier about grinding through my book this weekend. Sure, sure. And I was going over those chapters because we talk about that in the book. Yeah. It's just interesting to hear him speak about it, what my perception was at the time, and go back over that time frame. But then when you look back, Tim, on all these things, you're like, who cares?

We ended up winning three out of four years in championships, right? It's like, who cares? I was not happy in the moment. But in the end, if it all works out and you win, like... It doesn't matter. It just doesn't matter.
