And so, so not being in the cup was, was, was the only thing that was not going to happen.
You know what I mean?
I was like, we, we going to get there.
And so, um,
You know, that whole experience was awesome, just seeing the city turn from, like, fans was always rowdy, but to having this confident swag, we championship football, it was awesome because I got, you know, my high school was ranked national, and then I go from there to Alabama, and then I got to Seattle.
It was a shock to me to have guys not think they was going to not win every game.
So coming out of that to see what it is, and I don't remember โ
When Pete Carroll gets there and Russell and Marshawn and they all call me, hey, hey, bro, this water over here warm.
I'm like, yeah, y'all got one more step and y'all got it.
So it was cool.
And, you know, just watching Richard and Wagner and all them boys just coming, that Legion of Boom, watching them win.
I just felt like I was like the John the Baptist of that group.
I got to go bring that thing right up to the table and retire.
You know what I mean?
I wish I would have got mine, but it was cool to see like Seattle still has that winning culture, and I got to be a part of building that.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
