But I think for the rookies going in, it's just like, whoa, like, I love this. I'm a historian of this. And then you have some guys that are really like. Hey, these meetings are over at three. I'm out. Right. I'll see you tomorrow when it's time to come back in. I don't want to talk football. I don't want to talk basketball till it's time to. And that was a big shock for a lot of people.

But I always have the conversation because I talk to a lot of athletes, especially rookies that. The one thing you have to understand going into this is it is a business from top to bottom, right? And it is going to operate like a business. The game of sport is a business.

Yeah, absolutely. Absolutely. So, Mo, now I want to go a little bit personal because I've never gotten to talk to you about... the 2017 accident. And I want to take my time here and give you the light, because I know you've told this story a lot, but I want to ask it in a different way, because you were a wide receiver. So your hands, your fingers were your tool. They were your craft, right?

And you have an accident where your tool and your craft, part of it's taken away. And for a lot of people that aren't mentally tough, It's devastating. Not saying that it wasn't devastating for a moment for you, but knowing the resiliency that you have and, and the inspiration that you are like, we don't have to go through the moment of losing of the accident. Right.
