Yeah, right. That's your mental. So the problem with that, okay, if you're a normal fan, I get it. But if you're a player or a coach, and I know that coaches, you know, there's coaches out there that actually do listen. And they could say it's their prep work for the media and stuff.

You know what? I knew that I was signed for two years. So I was signed to go there, you know, the back of Carson for two years. So I was under contract. And I love Philadelphia.
