How did Pat Riley secure the rights to '3-peat'?
Oh, yeah.
So lots of stuff is happening in the NBA as we tape right now. We'll keep interrupting what I think are thoughtful points with meaningless updates about Chris Middleton as we proceed here, I guess. Another bit of news, though. Maybe, David, you've already covered it. Come on. You said you have news. That's for you. Go ahead. I thought there was another trade. The NFL has a deal with Miami's own Pat Riley. for the use of three-peat on merchandise if the Chiefs win.

It was after.
