Like well, seeing him win and lose and lose weight and all the sacrifices he made, I definitely wanted to pass that on to my kids. And after I retired Kids didn’t want to happen. So, in sponsorships, it’s business you know, it’s money, I understand. Not going to happen in the media, those things aren’t going to happen. But now I think they’re probably like, ‘ Oh, maybe we shouldn’t have done that.'”
