Talk about the face of the franchise. He sure has embraced that role and takes that responsibility very seriously. His appeal is pretty amazing, I see the dude in a lot of commercials. And the guy works his ass off every day to remain the best.

The King returns in '26.....bet your ass on that.

Jets is just a naturally cool dude. Easy to root for and incredibly talented. Whoever is throwing the ball, I hope Jefferson has a huge year.

Jefferson's routes are so crisp and perfect. You know he will have a huge year.

The popularity of Pro Wrestling has always been a fascinating thing to me. And now even more so. Here’s my psychoanalysis…

There are certain sections of the population who love tough guys, specially FICTIONAL tough guys. Colonel Jessup, Jack Bauer, Dirty Harry. They represent everything they're not but wish to be: tough, smart, heroic, alpha, but also a victim—someone who is persecuted for his beliefs and actions. That they’re also completely made up is irrelevant. 

In pro wrestling, everyone knows it’s scripted. But y’know what? The fans don’t care. Because they’re not there for reality. They’re there for the show: the hero vs. the heel. It’s a world where truth is completely irrelevant.

Social media, cable news, podcasts, influencer culture and even our politics behave much the same way now.
