It's just, well, you know, a couple more questions, I want to get out of here, I've had enough.

And why is that camera not on the stand, and which camera am I looking like, and how many more minutes of this?

Yeah.

It's a shame because we had...

Such a great time, and when you look at guys like Steve Young and Jim Kelly and Doug Flutie and Herschel Walker, and all they do is talk about how they never would have been the football players that they were if not for that experience, and coaches and general managers and owners.

18 Pro Bowlers, 7 Hall of Famers.

And almost 200 players.

And it's funny, 25 years later, nobody's proven that the concept can't work.

In fact, you could argue the other side, and somebody is now trying to start a spring pro football league again.

So this crazy dude out here, Bill Oldenburg, who owned the LA Express, makes a $40 million deal with Steve Young.

You can't support that when 12 people are showing up at the Coliseum.

Because who cares who's playing right guard?
