The music makes it sound like he’s about to admit that he buried a body
😂😂😂😂

“Why don’t you have a seat over there Reggie..?”
Lol
he has bodies..ask the Knicks
@@BadTV1993 he damn near killed spike lee a few times
Stephen Jackson to this day is still trying to be a goon at 44 years old.

I feel for Reggie so much. Dude just wanted to win a ring and instead he had to babysit a bunch of immature grown ass adults. Even to this day Stephen Jackson still acts like a 17 year old in his 40s. I couldn’t imagine having to be around a group of guys like that 24/7 let alone trying to win a ring with them. It must have been so frustrating.
@Kyle Urbin Damn this was well said, especially by a fan of the opposite team, respect....😎👍🏾👍🏾
no he doesn't.
Reggie would often play a very immature game. The truth hurts.
@@thunderpoochNo he didn't 🤡 😂
You right bruh idc what nobody says that was the Pacers year.
Reggie is talking about respecting the game through intense preparation and being mindful of how to be a professional. This was a common theme expressed by Jordan, Kobe, and other HOF players.
I'm glad that he mentioned Stephen Jackson. Even at his present age, Jackson sounds very immature. When he spoke on the Ja Morant situation (threatening the security guard at the mall, beating up the 17 kid, and brandishing the handgun on social media), he told people to leave Ja alone. Do not correct him. He said that he always tell young people to be themselves. In other words, don't listen to anyone who tries to advise you.
Yeah his words didn't come out right , but I do understand him in trying to defend ja cause if I was him I would to , that's his nba basketball family, I believe in trying to help ja be better , not join the crowd in tearing him down, if you made a mistake outside of work would you want all the employees against you and want you fired ? Ja has issues I get it , but I know a few dudes that were like that and changed for the better
I always hear people tell others to "be themselves".
What if they're assholes? What if they themselves are terrible people? What if they are reckless people who put other people in danger with their bad decisions?
Are you still telling them to be themselves?
ja did all this?
@@ddavis8988 Well... I understand that. But that sentence is supposed to mean "be the best version of yourself you can be, not a complete different and false person to please others".
Honestly, Ja's situation completely refers to that. He's not a thug, he's just trying to look hard for his peers and what he thinks gives him credibility. I'm sure his education wasn't about that life.
@Joao Albuquerque
I grew up near where Ja grew up. He wasn't in them streets and he needs to be thankful that he wasn't and that he had a 2 parent household guiding him. Cause there are knuckheads in Sumter who would kill for his life.
And that's not what Stephen Jackson said. Amd Jack is known for giving suspect advice.
My dude Reggie discovered the key to reverse-aging wtf
This interview is like over 10 years old
@@eaglewinnings8003
Actually, he even looks younger today. Blacks who take care of themselves do appear to age in reverse.
@@FactsOnlyPlease.look at him closely and he looks old. Of course black people age a million times better than whites do but that doesn’t mean none of them age.
Facts... he honestly still looks like his UCLA days
Easy to do when u were bald in ur youth.
Reggie Miller: a Class Act
I’m a knick fan. Miller destroyed us regularly and yet we respected him. He played w passion and humor
This isn’t just an nba issues. It’s a society issue
God bless you man for this comment. The Malaise in the NBA is A Reflection of The Institutional and Moral Decadence Prevailing in the American Society Where Kids have bigger rights than their Parents no thanks To Govt.. What we have in the NBA now are Soft Social Media freaks and Grown Soft babies with average to zero Basketball Skills and Mostly Zero Passion and Discipline for the Game….
Yep. People gunna hate this one but it’s true. Period
I agree
Wow, the music is so haunting and serious… you can feel the pain in the sparse music
Its an N issue
Stephen Jackson mindset still hasn't changed
The only thing he said about Stack was that he was a little rough around the edges.
@@amck72 why niggas be worried about another man
Because Steph Jackson is still in the public eye with a popular podcast, he does not want to air him out that way.@@kaydee1485
Stack is a weed smoking so called Muslim
JACKSON trying to act like STREET Dude, STEVE FRANCIS out here, trying to become a RAPPER...😂 they're both 46.
Malice at the Palace squandered any chance Reggie Miller had left to win a ring. People forget how good that Pacer team was because of the brawl.
True, they were that good. Even artest & jackson admitted later on that the brawl in the palace messed up a potentially great team.
They were first seed that year until that happened. At least the superior team won the chip
@Gee_Morty.. that happened in November you donut. Who gives a flying F about 1st seed in November
True. After that happened, Miller's career was done. They still had hope before the incident but that whole brawl ruined the whole season! It cast a dark shadow...
@@wgsuperstar7730 were you even alive? Stfu 😺
I agree 💯 The respect and maturity level is gone and hasn't been seen since
I met Al Harrington one night at the gas station near the airport in Indy after they flew back in after a road game.
Real classy dude.
I Hear stories about Al but I gotta say, I was surprised when he said he loved playing mentor to AL Harrington. I dont know why because he is soft spoken and never seemed like a knucklehead or a guy that peacocks for attention but I think his play reminded me of Antoine Walker and I lumped them in together lol
@@say5070 when he first came in the league out of high school, he lived with Antonio Davis and his family and they watched over him like he was their own child.
That was a classy gesture by the Davis family.
Reggie is 💯 right. Aside from the obvious fact that the educational system is being slowly dismantled and as a result society and human behavior is getting worse and worse, the NBA has a specific problem of lack of mentorship. Several Old School players like Barkley have said it time and time again; that in their playing days, it was very common to see a couple of older veterans that played the role of mentors. That's no longer the case in the NBA. In fact, if I'm not mistaken the Memphis Grizzlies DONT HAVE A SINGLE player in his 30s in their roster. Steven Adams is the oldest at 29 years old. Thats insane 🤯
I always felt like something was up when reg retired.
Besides being 39 and shooting 32% from three his final year?
@@BrooklynBalla that has nothing to do with how he got along with his teammates. He was a pacer legend and the face of the franchise for years. And his teammates seemed to give two shits when he was leaving. And now we have insight into why.
@@BrooklynBallaYea most of those younger players basketball IQ was 32.
That pacers team had a legit chance of winning the championship...and then the brawl happened.
I wish Reggie Miller had win a chip he was a true competitor heart of a lion
Miller is one of those under rated og’s man much respect to him, if he played today he would kill the league.
He wouldn’t “kill” he would be as good if not slightly better. He would be similar to prime Klay thompson
@@retrozzfuzionzz8677he would because how sucks the defense today
How he is underrated? Everyone knows and it is very well documented what he did during his career and his legacy. Wtf
Most overrated. He invented the shot flop. Nuff said.
Thats why the NBA Is not the same he was playing with clowns
Never forget when Ron Artest (Metta) asked after the brawl “do y’all think we in trouble” 😅
Miller not a hood dude like the new guys they surrounded
him by. He knew he would have to babysit rather than teaching the game he loves.
The Pacers were going to win the championship until the malice at the palace They had a team then Ron Artest got suspended for the year.
Yep, Reggie they different Bro.
You can tell there is a lack of preparation. There's no way a player should be able to get to his sweet spot all the time without being denied or doubled.
I mean I remember the coach before jb got hired Cavs players got a coach fired because he wanted them to watch more tape. Kevin love was frustrated with Collin sexton because he didn’t prepare and wasn’t interested in running a offense
Great Truth spoken by Reggie. Probably the main reason I haven't really watched the NBA in 20 years
If Reggie saw this imagine what Kobe saw with his sorry ass teammates those years he didn’t make the playoffs
Hell why you thought Lebron left. There was vets in the Cavs lockerroom that said he was frustrated with a lot of his teammates not putting the work in
@@hiitsme3039 putting the work in only to be 3-6-1
@@jeortiz-luis4288 oh you mad loll.
Kobe was the reason his team wasn’t making the playoffs, he’s also the reason the suns came back and eliminated them when they were up 3-1 against them. This revisionist history with Kobe has to stop just because he’s dead. Great players are supposed to win, and he failed numerous of times to even be a .500 team before they acquire Pau and Ron Artest, etc.
Also I’m not even sure why you even brought Kobe up, players can express how they feel independently. You said that shit as if Kobe wanted to win more than Reggie even did.
@@wirelessbrain12 mad about what? sound like your brain definitely should connect some wires. make more sense.
Always respected Reggie.
Reggie should've left we all know this...Lakers wanted him and he would've had a ring or two
Man that would've been dope.
@@kenyontucker6469 they both had mutual interest I think it just fell apart deal wise
The Celtics big 3 wanted him.
Yeah but he’s no sellout started in Indiana so he finished in Indiana…❤💯🤷♂️
Nope.. the Celtics.. in 2007.. them again he was never an Eddie house!
Not many people are as classy and well spoken as Reggie Miller. On the other hand, some people only respond to the Sheriff, badges and guns, and that's messed up.
That pacers team with artest oneal jackson could have been a problem if they just focus on playing the game
They thought they were RAPPERS that HOOPERS...😂
that's the problem.
All respect to Reggie man, he has the heart of lion.. sad it had to go down like that
Lol Stephen Jackson shown when Reggie talkin about being a professional 😂
stephen jackson will always be immature even as he ages
DAMON DASH asked him... What's your biggest professional dream about life or career?
JACKSON replied, I wanna become an ACTOR, DAMON DASH was offended, he was like, naaaaahhhhh... That's too small, Give me another bigger dream 😂.
Right there and then, I knew the Guy will never grow mentally.
It’s sad cuz even if he was 40, he still had a lot in the tank. He went crazy on his last playoff game as proof. He could’ve played at least 1-2 more seasons.
💯 Reg, one of the many reason we love you. I haven't realized it until now but I guess that's why I haven't watched the NBA since you retired. Kobe said similar things as well...While there are some exceptions for the most part it's sadly become a crybaby clown show. Thanks for so many awesome years Reg, will always love you!!
Why the music changed like that when he mentioned Al Harrington like Al is a villain or something lmao
And that was back in 2005. Nowadays seems like dudes barely even care about the regular season, load manage, miss games for anything short of a broken fingernail, demand trades with 3-4 years left on there contract, and still have organizations giving them 100-200$ million+max deals etc. Pro ballers have NEVER been perfect men, but the lack of respect and regard for the game is at an all-time low. Reggie got out right in time...
I love when they miss games for "personal reasons". And anytime management complain they get threatened with the "racist" card.
Should’ve went to the lakers in 2000. Oh well.
He wanted to truly earn a chip 🏆 not get one on Kobe🕊️ and Shaq's coattails. That's Miller not Durant
Them getting into that brawl ruined his last shot at a title. It’s a shame because you could argue the pacers had the overall best team that year. I really think had that not happened they would’ve ended up in the finals
Valid points...respect is quickly disappearing. Everyone wants you to earn it...which makes sense... but respect can be something you just show and give until you're given a reason not 2. Times have changed.
Half the NBA is like that today. 😄👍

Classic Reggie! Thanks for 18 great years!
The early 2000's was the"HOOD"era of the NBA.
The 70s weren’t the worst era of the league. The thug era was. Reggie was a Class act and deserved a better end to his career.
@@johnburris7711 the 70's was the Dark Ages of the NBA
@@johnburris7711Ironically...it was a similar mentality... because you didn't have a level headed guy like Magic (80s) or MJ (90s) to market the league...U had streets guys dominating the game. The 70s was the original thug era... difference... replace weed with coke and baggy clothes with bell bottoms...and it was the same mentality...
NBA Players from the same hood as RAPPERS.
Miss the 90s so much they all had so much character. I remember hating Reggie and Ewing mourning but wanted them all to win a ring because they were such great ballers and people.
Reggie... The last Pacers legend!
The last?
By all accounts, plz tell us, who was the first….?
@@BobSteven_enjoyit Ok, you got me - one and only legend!
I understand what he is saying. The early 2000's hip hop street culture had fully permeated the NBA, alot of players were towing the line between wanting to be gangsta and pro athlete.
David Stern stepped up big. The dress code, ceasing to draft players straight out of high school etc. It really helped the league correct itself. Nowadays players are a lot more conscious of their image, and consider themselves brands and business men.
With the exception of the Ja Morant situation, NBA players have done quite well since malice in the palace.
I dont blame reggie. Reggies is very sophisticated and respectful and he was coaching a team full of gang bangers
It was weird seeing Reggie Miller playing into the mid 2000s. Too “futuristic” for him
Ultimately, Reggie paid the biggest price for the malice in the palace.
Goddamn- I thought this was clickbait, as he's always maintained that it was due to his ankles (which I'm sure was still a factor), but....ohhh those bastards!!
I love this. Those same cats he mentioned be the main ones talking about a lot of these players these days but they literally opened the doors for all the fuckery today lmao 🤦🏽♂️
The very thing he talked about as problems with the younger players in his later years is even WORSE now.
Miss conception about that incident, Stephen Jackson, NOT Ron Artest was in the stands fighting fans first. Secondly, what always made me laugh was Artest went after the wrong person, it was the dude behind him that he should’ve beat up. Thirdly, I didn’t think what Ron did warranted that response from Ben Wallace.
It clips like this that make me love the internet. Reggie Miller retired in 2005. So, for everyone dissing the current era like it’s the worst thing they’ve ever seen remember this clip. EVERY era has their mix of great players and knuckleheads. Remember what Jordan said about his team when he came into the league in 1984. Are there things about the current era I can’t stand? Yes. Are there things about the current era I love? Yes. The same can be said for every era prior.
The NBA is awful today
@@BoosterGoldEarth6 Name your favorite era and I can tell you what was awful about it. Stop putting on rose colored glasses when thinking back to previous eras.
He’s right. Lots of immature players and a lack of respect for the game across the league. Though, I think that’s the problem. Society thinks respect is deserved. It is earned through hard work in many regards.
He’s right because that team should’ve won a COUPLE of rings. They had the best Bug Man defender in Jermaine who averaged 20/10 with 3 blocks, the best 2 way wing out side of Kobe in Ron, another damn good two way player in Stephen Jackson who was a really good 3 point shooter to go along with a top 5 shooter ever on Reggie. Also had good role players starting with Tinsley, Crohere, Fred Jones. and Scott Foster.
On top of that they were coached by a top 12 coach ever who won a title 6 seasons later. This team was one of the biggest "what-ifs." If O’Neal always stayed healthy and Ron/Jax weren’t such out control mental patients, then they would’ve won in 04-05. The kings (DONT EVEN GET ME STARTED ON HOW BAD THE REFS SCREWED THEM IN GAME 4 AND 6 OF THE 02 WCT VS THE LAKERS) and Pacers were the biggest what ifs of the 2000’s (Honorable mention? 99-2000 Blazers.).
Reggie deserved a Ring !! But thank you for sticking with your team !! It’s to bad the Pacers have been in the NBA since the 70s and no Ring !!
Some of the comments here truly represent this disrespectful generation.
Agree 💯
Not really. They learned it from somewhere, blame these old folks for their terrible parenting skills.
@@nate8604 Gen X didn't raise a great generation. You're definitely right on that one.
Stay mad about it.
@@chazzx1018gen x was not exactly a great generation themselves. You can’t really bring out in others what you don’t have yourself.
Reggie an all time great. I’ll never forget the playoff game against the knicks. My cuz wanted to just go outside and play ball. The knicks got this he said. Not enough time on the clock he said. I looked at him and said, oh, you must not know about Reggie Miller! He found out that day.
Reggie fouled Greg Anthony before the steal
Hahahahahaha. No, Greg fell. This isn’t even a thing.
@@oak49sox he fell because Miller pushed him. Pretty obvious and pretty blatant
🥱
In my heart as a Pacer fan, I will always believe that the 2004-05 team had a legit chance to win it all before that night in Detroit.
That tayshaun prince block should have been the indicator that it was time to retire
Not really man. It happens and Tayshaun was elite with his long arms. I was a Michigander at the time and so psyched to see the pistons kick ass.
Reggie would have had that shot swatted at a rookie and I'm a Reggie guy. I don't know what you're talking about because dunking on people was never Reggie's thing.
Playing a children’s game as a Grown man, grown men watching other men play a children’s game. It’s only a matter of time you see the truth.
Greatest shooter I have ever had the privilege to watch
Then you never watched Larry Bird play. Your loss
@@arln1966 larry wasnt a shooter but a scorer, reggie purely a shooter
@@wetlettuce8215 lol, Larry Bird was a deadly shooter, especially with the game on the line. And how can you tell?
The one shot they show about Larry Bird the most is the one he missed vs the Lakers after Magic hit the baby hook shot over McHale. Why does that get shown more often? Simple answer: it's because he hit so many clutch shots to win the game that the one he missed is used to show that even the greatest player in NBA history failed in the clutch once in awhile.
Further proof of how great a shooter Larry Bird is? At age 60, he went to a Pacers practice, grabbed a ball and made 10 consecutive 3 point shots WITHOUT A MISS in front of the entire Pacers team, then sat down on the bleachers to watch practice. After not playing that much basketball since he retired.
Bet you Reggie Miller can't do that.
@@arln1966 Look at Larry 3% and come back and tell me he was
@Anthony Naughton Nah. This just shows you can't respect a different game or player. Or you never actually saw Miller play. He was an incredible shooter and so fun to watch. Fearless and clutch. He'd just burst around screens and his launch/release was so quick... as a Bulls fan he was one of the only players from that Era that whenever there was a pressure shot and it was in Miller's hands your heart skipped a beat.
One of my favorite players. I'll never get why some guys are so sensitive they have to put down a player to try to elevate another... it's kind of juvenile. Bird is a legend for a variety of reasons but it doesn't negate being a bid fan of Miller's game.
💯 he’s mainly talking about Jermaine O’Neal & Ronny Artest. O’Neal used to be up in Broad Ripple at the clubs every night of the week when the Pacers weren’t on the road & Artest was hanging down off Washington street on the near East side in the hood. Most of his family still lives there. They loved it here compared to where they were in NYC. As good as those 2 were if they’d been more mature and focused solely on basketball they’d have won multiple championships bc I know for a fact both of them, & several other Pacers, had pretty severe substance abuse issues.
Alluding to Reggie's point: I was the Post MJ era.....Pre Lebron era. Aka....The Allen Iverson era....Guys were wearing Cornrolls and baggy pants to the game. AI was the face of the league....not Shaq or Kobe.
All-time favorite player! Man that 04-05 team was bound to be champions if not for the brawl. Stacked with talent all the way through the bench. Sad to know they didn't respect themselves enough to work for it. I haven't watched a game since Reggie retired.
U ain't watched a game of ball in almost 20 years..?stop capping
@stifler5062 lol you right, I watched one game of the Pacers/Heat Eastern Conference series in 2013. It re-pissed me off so I have legit not watched another one. I still keep up with the game here and there though. Turns out I was just a Reggie fan all that time
Reggie was a thorn for us Bulls fans but we always respected him. He was brash, talked shit but backed it up. A true leader. Never a dirty player nor was he a sore loser, durable and clutch! I wish he had left Indiana to get some rings elsewhere.
That's probably the incident where *many* fans of the game tuned out for good. The game itself is great, but it's hard to enjoy when so many players don't respect themselves enough to respect fellow players or the purity of basketball and its rules. Shoot, even the refs don't respect the rules anymore. Every single possession involves either a traveling violation that goes uncalled or an unenforced carry on the dribble. Defense is a thing of the past, and the team game is all but gone. It's virtually unwatchable for me now.
Reggie was the shit, the only player that made us MJ fans nervous.
He could have joined a different team….a lot of those teams in the mid 2000s just needed that extra shooter/scorer. Look at what Ray Allen did for the Heat, just saying🤷🏼♂️
That wasn't the mentality back then. Try to latch on and get a ring when past your prime. I know a dude like Reggie would not appreciate the ring fully if he ran to another team like LA.
Rough around the edges..... The nice way of saying yo ass is GHETTO 😂😂
"A lot of these younger players just want to show up"....this is even more relevant right now compared to 2004.
Watching that brawl on live TV was absolutely INSANE. It lasted like 30 minutes. It was CRAZY. November of 2004.
I remember watching that game.
.In the 1st quarter...I couldn't stay up.... because I did 40 hrs and went to school all week
Reggie was also 39, only playing 32 minutes per game, and hadn't scored at least 15 points per game since three seasons earlier.
I don't doubt he believes what he's saying, but there IS context.
Reggie is 100% correct here.
The game, and it's players, just continues to get worse every year... ja MORONt is just the latest... sad what's become of a league that used to be fun to watch.
Really wish he would've joined that '07-'08 Celtics team like Ainge tried to convince him to do. That team would've been even more fun to watch, and he would've had a ring by kicking kobe's ass.
“We talkin practice.”
AI
We talkin zero rings
We talking one of the all time greats
True. But AI played as hard as anyone you ever saw on game day. It doesn’t excuse the fact about practice. He needed to make those around him better.
In general, maturity comes with age. Regardless of the sport or industry, young people are immature.
“The Brawl of Auburn Hills”, I have never heard The Malice at The Palace called anything different 😂
Self respect and discipline starts at home and most have neither one😢
LIKE THE TRUMP DOMESTIC TERRORISTS ON JANUARY 6TH
Agree, but Reggie giving the “choke sign” to fans was not the most mature thing in the world.
He didn't give the choke sign to the fans. He gave it to Spike Lee. That's it
Spike didn't respect him or his team, or his state for that matter.. Reggie just gave it right back to him. There's a difference
Knicks & Pacers hated each other because they respected each other.
@@88949597 Facts. And being a Knicks fan, I can attest to this. Plus, Reggie was always a professional. He’s 100% right on this. The game has lost its “luster.”
The difference between that Reggie & the Reggie during "Malice" is like 10 years. You think his attitude couldn't have changed in the span of a decade? 🤔
@@jan279 maybe
Stephen Jackson 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Miss the 80s and 90s ball. Game has changed dramatically.
I wasn't even watching basketball before 2012 and I can see the difference. 60s finals were great
Imagine having to try to win a championship with some young wild heads with the "respect level" low. That's what LeBron has had to try to win championships with
Translation
Reggie: Scott Adams is right
With a young and wild Stephen Jackson, and a hot head Ron Artest that hung with 50 cent and Tony Yayo and G-unit who was beefing with jimmy henchman and preme....I would too.
Doesn’t matter what line of work you’re in. The youngest generation doesn’t want to work for anything. Talent doesn’t mean much in this world because the guy next to you with half the talent and twice the fortitude and work ethic will win every single time.
there hasn't been respect in the NBA since Bird and Magic. the Jordan era is when they introduced this nonsense. they completely used Jordan to make money. it wasn't about basketball anymore. they manipulated the league so he could stand out. there are consequences for all actions.
I have been telling people the same thing. No matter what Magic and Bird did it was ALWAYS about the Lakers and the Celtics but when Jordan came along he , Nike and the NBA totally destroyed the concept of team sports and the first time I actually paid attention to it was when he scored 63 pts against Boston but no one ever talks about the fact he got swept in the playoffs that season and if you do you're labeled an old hater
Good point, never thought of that perspective. The NBA has been on a decline since the Jordan era and we’re just now seeing it’s full effect on the league and players.
Can take the thug out of the hood....
Reggie was a stand up guy and loved him for being a pacer thanks Reggie
How on earth did he mention Stephen Jackson as one of the good ones?? Dude is still a knucklehead to this day.
Yeah, the maturity level dropping in today's sports (and society in general) is a major issue. Grown up men and women are actually kids and behave so...
I can't hear this from one of the dirtiest players of all time
What are you talking about.
Exactly ! Reggie was no angel
Not as dirty as your mom
He was talkin about having discipline and respect at your team mates by taking practice and the game plan seriously. His dirty antics (w/c many players do back then) to put his team in a position to win is different.
Looool right
Lost a lot of respect for him after seeing this
Never had any. Over rated
@rayguard9470 How? This man carried a team on his back for nearly 20 years and played his ass off in his last season. If anything, the Pacers overperformed because of his presence there. Made it to the playoffs almost every year with no stars.
He doesn't need your respect. He'll be fine.
@@rayguard9470 ask the Knicks how overrated he was. Beast mode in those final minutes.
You must be one of the youngsters he's talking about!!
He doesn't mention tho that pacers team were contenders that year of the brawl
Bro was a monster with his shot.
Huh dude you Routinely were disrespectful. This guy is the worse kinda hypocrite. Most disrespectful player of the 90s the nerve
Knicks fan > *detected*
Ion know bout that...
He's talking about respect for the game. Was Reggie ever disrespectful to the game that you saw?
taunting your opponent & baiting fouls by flopping is a lil different than being late/skipping practice, and acting like their above coaching & criticism.
I don't think Reggie ever disrespected the game. The younger guys started getting fame & money, and started acting like they didn't have to work hard
I don't think that problem ever resolved itself in the league, and as salaries rise, it's only gotten worse 20 years later
*That picture of Reggie standing there lookin down like Woody just got dissed by Buzz Lightyear and had a real bad day.*
Al Harrington severely underrated
Wow, this is very, very interesting. Never would've thought about that aspect of it
