I love the National Football League.
I feel like on my platform at CBS, being kind of a guardian of the game, I like to call bullshit if I have to do it periodically.
And sometimes I think that we get caught up in the...
what we perceive, what we want it to look like, as opposed to just doing the right thing.
And Mr. Rooney used to always say this.
I'll leave you one last story.
Dan Rooney, at times, I would talk to him on a Friday afternoon.
Everybody's out of the building.
I'm in there just preparing my last little bit for my meeting the next day, that next night.
And I'd say, Dan, hey, listen, I just want you to know, like, I may pull the quarterback this week.
I don't like the way he's practiced.
I don't like the way he's been playing.
I'm not sure he's into this.
And I says, well, I want you to know beforehand so that you're not blindsided by this.
He would just say, like, okay, like, were you going to dinner?
And I said, well, like, we're going to dinner at the club.
He goes, well, have the girls got anything this week?
I go, the girls are fine.
I said, I just want to make sure you know about this quarterback thing.
He'd turn, he'd walk away.
