He'll have eight points in the fourth quarter, but he'll. He'll go on those Maxi runs, but he'll get 12 points in two minutes. I agree. But in Bill, you're right, he didn't get him. I'm not saying he's chasing him. I'm just saying he ends up with the stats. They ever look like he's trying to get him. Maxi is maxi, doesn't know what he has in the game. That's what I love about him. Right. You don't see him doing that. If you asked him how many points on the Jumbo had, he would. I don't know. Yeah, like I love guys like that. I love guys where I think they have like 15 points and they have 29. Yeah, those are the smooth. You're like, you have 29. Those are the smooth guys. I'm at this game, there's a lot of guys, some really good players like that. Who would you keep out of Palo versus Franz? Paulo probably, you know, I just talking to someone about that and yeah, probably because I like the way Franz plays better than the way Pablo plays because he's a downhill, quick decision player.

It's just players don't fit sometimes and you're trying to build a great team. And to me it's a team that doesn't fit. Now here's the only problem. How do we know they haven't played together much. Right. One of them's always hurt. Yeah. It'd be nice for them to have a 20 game run together and see what they actually could do. They just have never done that. The Chicago Bears, Come on now, it's, you know, someone just made a comment. It's Chicago's a Bears town and that's not taken away from any team. The Cubs, it's a Bearstown that had a decade and a half long Michael Jordan cameo. Yeah. But still was a Bearstown. Right. In 85. Yeah. Come on. Like they are a joy to watch. Like, and this is what I would say Ben Johnson's a phenomenal fan. We should mention you've been a Bears fan. You're.
