Quote of the day
“One thing I’ve been really proud of is we’ve stayed true to the notion that there has to be a transaction of some sort. It’s not just, ‘Because I’m on the team, I get this money.’ It’s important to us. We do want this to be, at its core, name, image and likeness value. Most of the rest of the country is doing something else.”
