I start with Gino Smith before we get into some other things, only from the standpoint of,

you know, he yesterday, while I have, you know, who knows what type of player he will be this year,

he seems so confident in the way he has matured, the way his game has gotten better,

the things he said yesterday genuinely seemed like he's happy to be with the Jets.

I'll tell you, I was a Gino fan yesterday. And, you know, not that the Jet fans are thinking

Super Bowl championship by any stretch, but I came away thinking this guy seems like he really

gets it. Yeah, I don't, listen, I think a lot of people remember obviously the rough times, right?

But I don't think many people have paid attention to Gino's journey.

I think the quarterback that he was in Seattle really kind of looked at his career and everything

that he's been able to accomplish thus far. His time in, you know, his time in Las Vegas was rough, man. I mean, they had the 31st ranked office in line. They were depleted at the receiver position. They didn't have a very good defense outside of Matt Crosby. They didn't, you know, there was this a number of issues. And it's tough, too, because he won it out of Seattle, right? Like, he asked for the trade. And they got Sam Donald, and boom, they move forward and win the Super Bowl. So it was a tough look. Nevertheless, man, I think when you hear him talk, he understands that, hey, man, you know, I'm that he, there's our famous line they wrote but I didn't write back right

that that that's that's one of the things he leans on but nevertheless man when you talk about

where Gino is right now I think he's been able to look back and say hey man I was a young kid

who stepped into New York full of hope and full of gusto things didn't work out I've I've learned a lot. I've developed. I'm humbled. I know who I am as a man, which is true. Like, Jerry, I think I've told you this before. I didn't feel like I was a pro to year four or five in my career. Because you just had to grow up as a man, right? You got to learn what it means to be a pro,

how to take the building in each and every day, how to develop your relationships with people on and off the field. All that has to come into fruition. And once you kind of get that, you start to calm down. Things from the neck up seem to kind of get in line. And I think he right now is, I think he's really, I think he feels like he wants to kind of rewrite this chapter

in his jet,

and his jet legacy.

So I'm excited for him.

I know a lot of people are that played with him.

I don't know if Jets fans are as excited.

But hopefully he can, he could turn some heads and make things, you know, go right, go over the right way,

this comes Sunday. And I agree with all that. And I think, you know, the best part of it for him is that he's, A, it seems like he actually wants to be here, just, you know, reading through the between the lines and listening to him, which is kind of a cool thing, number one. Number two, he's got a chance to rewrite

the finish because, you know, if he goes somewhere else, his jet career is his jet career,
