I love putting great rooms together because what happens when we put great rooms together? Great things happen. I remember seeing some of the people you went up to talk to.

Correct.

Correct.

Right. And I said, who do you want to meet? Let's go see these people one by one. And to me, when you put great people together, great things happen. But for me, if I'm not just me- And I think people think like… He's full of shit. He wants something from me. They see through it. They know you're not authentic. So like… I can't even like… I don't ever like… I dress like this every day.

I don't ever… Like I think I wear a suit like… You know… Once a year for me.

I don't ever… Like I think I wear a suit like… You know… Once a year for me.

A wedding. You know… A funeral or something. Like you have to wear a suit. Like you know… I'm a casual guy. Like I don't try to speak… more properly because it's not me. I curse because I want people to know like you're not cursing here, but I am because that's who I am. So I think like owning who you are, something that's really important.

And by the way, like I just try to be my, like my best self all the time. And I think, I think it does work for me. And I think people know that, like that they can trust that.

I would call you for anything I need to know you would do it for me. That's true. Well, I would now. That's true. But like, look, I think when you try to be calculated about if I do this for that person, this is what they'll do for me. I think you're dead before you start. Like, I always think if you just do great things, it comes back.

And so I think I've been fortunate that I like, look, I have guys like Robert Kraft. It's one of the, you know, he's one of the most important owners in sports. You know, he and his son, Jonathan Kraft, they took me Like they kind of took me in like 2008, 2009. And they helped me so much in business, both with advice and relationships. They never wanted a thing for me.

And by the way, they would kill for me and I would kill for them. And like, I wouldn't be here today. This I'm very sick without the two of them. I wouldn't be here. I would not be here today. Okay. there were a number of people like that, but I want to do that for everybody that I can.

And I don't ever want anything, but I also know like people always like friends work for each other behind the scenes. And so like, you know, to me, I remember saying to you when you were in the corner, you know, who do you want to meet? And, you know, I remember taking you to a couple of different great people. And like, I was honored to do that. Never thought about it again until right now.
