So the old Bill Cosby stand-up, he says... the guy tells him, hey, have cocaine. And he's like, what does cocaine do? He says, well, it intensifies your personality. And Cosby says, well, what if you're an asshole? Right? And it's the same thing. It's like... Your personality is your personality. And then what you're afflicted with influences some of that.

You know one of the funny things, Dan, when you talk about how people are labeled soft, when Meech was playing, I've heard this before, like, hey, he's kind of soft. What makes you say that?

Just the first page. But there's always these weird kind of things. There was a player, I remember we were getting ready to acquire and there were questions, right? There's questions.
