Choice 0:03:06.480 --> 0:03:14.880 you're making my way of New York. You've seen both 0:03:14.960 --> 0:03:18.120 needs no introduction. One of the greatest athletes of all time. 0:03:18.800 --> 0:03:20.839 Uh, the greatest olympician of all time. 0:03:20.960 --> 0:03:26.280 Yeah, nine time medalists, triple the fastest person in the 0:03:26.320 --> 0:03:29.800 history of the world. Absolutely, very rare, very fastest person. 0:03:31.320 --> 0:03:33.280 I told my son I was coming here. I said, 0:03:33.320 --> 0:03:35.119 he's the fast man in the world. He's like, could 0:03:35.120 --> 0:03:35.680 I raise him? 0:03:36.080 --> 0:03:42.720 I'm like, you know, so, I mean, obviously you know 0:03:42.760 --> 0:03:44.720 what the athletic side, but this is a business show 0:03:44.760 --> 0:03:46.840 and what he's been able to accomplish in the business 0:03:46.840 --> 0:03:50.200 world is just as impressive and orshment. 0:03:49.960 --> 0:03:51.800 Deal is crazy. We're at his restaurant right. 0:03:51.680 --> 0:03:55.760 Now, yep, in the music business, looking at the DJ 0:03:55.960 --> 0:03:56.440 callat of. 0:04:01.440 --> 0:04:02.840 I've read about some real estate. 0:04:03.600 --> 0:04:05.680 So we're gonna have a really dope conversation about the 0:04:05.680 --> 0:04:09.080 stuff that he is doing and has done post his 0:04:09.520 --> 0:04:13.680 illustrious historic career and first and formal thank you for joining. 0:04:13.560 --> 0:04:14.000 To appreciate it. 0:04:15.880 --> 0:04:17.560 This is going to be a insane lea. 0:04:25.160 --> 0:04:25.919 So let's get into this. 0:04:26.000 --> 0:04:29.640 So you really transcended the game of track and field, 0:04:30.000 --> 0:04:32.240 because track and field is not one of these sports 0:04:32.240 --> 0:04:37.600 where it's like basketball or football soccer where normally athletes 0:04:37.640 --> 0:04:39.680 aren't that big, like you know what I mean, Like 0:04:39.720 --> 0:04:41.760 it's a very niche sport. When you were able to 0:04:41.800 --> 0:04:44.359 transcend that and become a global superstar and make a 0:04:44.360 --> 0:04:45.480 lot of money, that's another thing. 0:04:45.480 --> 0:04:46.599 A lot of track. 0:04:46.440 --> 0:04:48.479 Stars don't really make that much money just from running track, 0:04:48.880 --> 0:04:51.839 but your endorsement deals anything else. So when did you 0:04:51.880 --> 0:04:54.680 see yourself as somebody that can transcend the sport and 0:04:54.760 --> 0:04:57.040 had it that? Obviously you know you're being a superstar 0:04:57.040 --> 0:04:59.760 and breaking records, but what did you think propelled that? 0:05:00.360 --> 0:05:00.520 Yo? 0:05:00.800 --> 0:05:03.839 For me, it was it was It wasn't actually at 0:05:04.279 --> 0:05:06.159 the first Olympics. It was when I was getting to 0:05:06.240 --> 0:05:10.320 my second Olympics, I'm twenty twelve, where my agent really 0:05:10.360 --> 0:05:13.520 sat me down and said, listen, if we win this 0:05:13.640 --> 0:05:17.080 next Olympics this week, could things could take off, you 0:05:17.080 --> 0:05:19.360 know what I mean. We could start changing the game 0:05:19.440 --> 0:05:21.640 and doing hell of the different things. And I was like, 0:05:22.600 --> 0:05:24.080 all right, let's do it, you know what I mean. 0:05:24.320 --> 0:05:27.080 That's when I really started seeing the money and a 0:05:27.080 --> 0:05:29.800 lot of the sponsorships started, more sponsorship started coming in. 0:05:29.920 --> 0:05:32.440 So for me, that's when I was like, yo, yeah, 0:05:32.520 --> 0:05:34.320 let's do this, and I meant's change the game. That's 0:05:34.320 --> 0:05:36.800 why he continued us aiming I and trying to do 0:05:36.920 --> 0:05:40.480 bigger things. So twenty twelve is the London Games. Yeah, 0:05:40.839 --> 0:05:43.600 two thousand a's when you first on the scene exactly. Well, 0:05:43.560 --> 0:05:45.480 I won't go back to two thousand and four athletes 0:05:45.960 --> 0:05:47.200 because that was your first one. 0:05:47.400 --> 0:05:50.680 Ever, then you realize that this is no joke. This 0:05:50.800 --> 0:05:51.320 is no joke. 0:05:51.400 --> 0:05:53.479 So I want to talk about a little bit about 0:05:53.600 --> 0:05:57.320 what Clinton Mills went to your career, into your development 0:05:57.360 --> 0:05:59.640 into being a superstar coach. 0:05:59.680 --> 0:06:02.080 Mills, well, he changed it changed my life, you know 0:06:02.080 --> 0:06:02.400 what I mean. 0:06:04.040 --> 0:06:06.400 He knew he had a plan when we when we 0:06:06.400 --> 0:06:09.520 started working oh five, he sat me down was like, listen, 0:06:09.520 --> 0:06:12.480 we have a three year plan. We're working towards the Olympics, 0:06:12.760 --> 0:06:15.200 so we need to figure out what the problem is, 0:06:15.640 --> 0:06:17.960 what he needs to do to get better. And so 0:06:18.000 --> 0:06:20.839 we had an old plan in place when we just started, 0:06:21.080 --> 0:06:23.080 you know what I mean. And for me, that's what 0:06:23.200 --> 0:06:26.560 made it work because I knew exactly what I was supposed. 0:06:26.120 --> 0:06:28.480 To do or how long it would take you I mean. 0:06:28.520 --> 0:06:30.640 And it took me time to really understand that if 0:06:30.640 --> 0:06:32.080 I want to be great, I had to work hard, 0:06:32.480 --> 0:06:34.839 you know what I mean. So I learned that along 0:06:34.839 --> 0:06:38.040 the way because I was very talented at a young age. 0:06:38.080 --> 0:06:41.000 So I was like, my talent could take me whatever, 0:06:41.000 --> 0:06:43.559 you know what I mean. So after that I figured 0:06:43.560 --> 0:06:45.520 I was like, shit, my talent's not going to take me. 0:06:45.839 --> 0:06:47.280 It's not going to take me this far. So I 0:06:47.360 --> 0:06:48.640 have to put this work and if I want to 0:06:48.640 --> 0:06:49.480 get to the talking. 0:06:49.920 --> 0:06:51.880 I feel like it's very ready to have an opportunity 0:06:51.880 --> 0:06:53.600 to speak to somebody that's reached the level of success 0:06:53.600 --> 0:06:55.480 that you've had, Like I look at you look at 0:06:55.480 --> 0:06:59.200 like Michael Jordan or Floyd Mayweather or Muhammad Ali's people 0:06:59.240 --> 0:07:01.720 like that, and the average person doesn't really understand, Like 0:07:01.760 --> 0:07:03.479 they look at it and they say, okay, he's running 0:07:03.520 --> 0:07:06.320 a race. And I read somewhere it was like you 0:07:06.400 --> 0:07:09.000 make more money than Jeff Bezos per second. 0:07:09.040 --> 0:07:11.320 I'm like, that's not really fair because the race is 0:07:11.320 --> 0:07:14.000 only ten seconds. But it took him twenty years time. 0:07:14.680 --> 0:07:15.480 The races. 0:07:17.360 --> 0:07:20.040 Never so talk. 0:07:19.880 --> 0:07:22.640 About like the daily grind and like when you really 0:07:22.640 --> 0:07:24.880 start to take serious and like how many hours a 0:07:25.000 --> 0:07:29.200 day for years that it took you, Like the diligent work. 0:07:29.200 --> 0:07:30.080 I think that you had to have. 0:07:30.600 --> 0:07:30.920 Jeez. 0:07:32.000 --> 0:07:36.560 For me, I really was old oh seven winning I 0:07:36.600 --> 0:07:39.800 was like, no, if I want to really win this. 0:07:39.880 --> 0:07:42.640 I remember at the World Championships, I came second to 0:07:43.160 --> 0:07:45.800 Tyson Gay and in my mind I was ready, you 0:07:45.840 --> 0:07:47.280 know what I mean. I was like, yo, I trained hard, 0:07:47.280 --> 0:07:49.720 I'm ready to go, and I came second. I went 0:07:49.760 --> 0:07:51.200 back to my coach. I was like, coach, I was 0:07:51.240 --> 0:07:53.920 really trying, and he goes, yo, you're weak. You're not 0:07:53.960 --> 0:07:55.600 going to the gym, you don't come to chain all 0:07:55.600 --> 0:07:57.760 the time, you don't sleep, and he started naming. 0:07:57.840 --> 0:07:59.400 This the stuff, and I was like shit. 0:08:01.360 --> 0:08:02.000 I was like all right. 0:08:02.120 --> 0:08:03.800 I was like next year, I'm gonna do all this 0:08:04.000 --> 0:08:06.120 and that was eight, you know what I mean, And 0:08:06.120 --> 0:08:07.080 you're seeing the. 0:08:08.880 --> 0:08:13.040 Product of eight. But it's just I train like depends. 0:08:13.840 --> 0:08:16.480 I trained there on the track and like I'll do 0:08:16.520 --> 0:08:18.280 two hours in the gym, you know what I mean. 0:08:18.320 --> 0:08:20.520 And then I have to do like extra stuff because 0:08:20.760 --> 0:08:23.720 I have so I have to do back workouts and 0:08:23.720 --> 0:08:25.840 and o workouts just to keep my core. 0:08:26.040 --> 0:08:28.800 My core is weak. I started getting injured, you know 0:08:28.800 --> 0:08:29.120 what I mean. 0:08:29.200 --> 0:08:32.520 So sh all I was like probably six hours a day, 0:08:32.880 --> 0:08:34.920 I mean, but it's spaced out short to them, but 0:08:35.000 --> 0:08:36.480 it's always intense, you know what I mean. 0:08:36.520 --> 0:08:39.040 It's never just like go for a job. It's like 0:08:40.000 --> 0:08:40.520 you know what I mean. 0:08:40.720 --> 0:08:45.480 So you said, Dan, as you're training in the early series, 0:08:45.559 --> 0:08:48.480 right because after you take over, there's no catching. But 0:08:48.600 --> 0:08:50.560 these the guys that you're looking at like I'm gonna 0:08:50.559 --> 0:08:52.880 pass him, Michael Johnson, I need that record? 0:08:53.240 --> 0:08:54.800 Is that is that on your wall as you as 0:08:54.880 --> 0:08:57.640 you as your building up. No, for me, I live 0:08:57.679 --> 0:08:59.559 a couple of shot. I enjoyed that, you know what 0:08:59.559 --> 0:08:59.800 I mean. 0:08:59.840 --> 0:09:01.520 So for me, I was like, you know, I want 0:09:01.520 --> 0:09:03.959 to compete a enticeon So for me, that was it. 0:09:04.120 --> 0:09:06.040 I was like, you know, I was never thinking about 0:09:06.120 --> 0:09:08.679 records or anything. I was like, yo, I just want 0:09:08.720 --> 0:09:10.760 to beat you. That's how I am. You know, you're 0:09:10.760 --> 0:09:13.320 fascinate than me. I want to be here. So for me, 0:09:13.360 --> 0:09:15.880 when I'm training, I'm working out to be this guy 0:09:15.960 --> 0:09:18.400 or that guy or anybody. As long as he in 0:09:18.400 --> 0:09:20.040 lining up with me, I want to beat you. That's 0:09:20.040 --> 0:09:22.839 all My mentality is. I'm very confective in anything I do. 0:09:23.600 --> 0:09:26.040 So for your endorsements, because I know I made a 0:09:26.040 --> 0:09:31.120 lot of your income Puma. It's interesting because it's not Nike, 0:09:31.679 --> 0:09:32.679 it's not Adidas. 0:09:34.679 --> 0:09:37.760 What made you? Obviously when you were coming up, that might. 0:09:37.600 --> 0:09:39.440 Have been the only company I din' But once you 0:09:39.520 --> 0:09:42.160 I'm assuming you had offered from every company and might 0:09:42.160 --> 0:09:44.480 have even been offered more money. What made you want 0:09:44.520 --> 0:09:46.880 to really hold a flag for the Puma brand? 0:09:47.400 --> 0:09:49.400 To me, because that's where I start, and I mean 0:09:49.400 --> 0:09:52.280 that's where it started when I was I just got 0:09:52.320 --> 0:09:54.880 out of high school. That was the first contract I got, 0:09:54.920 --> 0:09:56.560 you know what I mean, And that was the person 0:09:56.559 --> 0:09:59.520 I worked with, and we kind of just formed the relationship. 0:10:00.120 --> 0:10:02.320 Everybody in the company, you know, I mean, from the 0:10:02.360 --> 0:10:05.400 top boss down to the little guy who brings me 0:10:05.520 --> 0:10:08.600 my stuff. I knew everybody. So after a while, when 0:10:09.160 --> 0:10:13.679 Nike Adidas came, I was like, Yo, all right, nah bro, 0:10:13.920 --> 0:10:16.840 I'd rather stick with somebody I know, because if anything 0:10:16.880 --> 0:10:19.720 goes wrong, I'm sure these people are going to stand 0:10:19.760 --> 0:10:21.480 by me, you know what I mean, because we're like 0:10:21.600 --> 0:10:24.560 family now, you know what I mean. So with with Nanke, 0:10:24.600 --> 0:10:27.640 you have seen as soon as you mess up there 0:10:30.600 --> 0:10:34.240 and I've and I've really worked to put all my life. 0:10:34.240 --> 0:10:35.360 So I was like, you know what, this is the 0:10:35.400 --> 0:10:37.960 company I want to stay until I retire. And even 0:10:38.000 --> 0:10:39.679 now that I've retired, that still work with them, you 0:10:39.720 --> 0:10:42.319 know what I mean. So's just a long life partnership. 0:10:43.559 --> 0:10:45.880 I can imagine the type of bags that Nike and 0:10:47.640 --> 0:10:50.320 so to that shows that how loyal are to a company. 0:10:50.960 --> 0:10:53.160 But you said early on you said put them with 0:10:53.200 --> 0:10:55.800 your first deal. But you weren't great with money, right 0:10:55.840 --> 0:11:00.920 because coming from now I have a sponsorship major one 0:11:00.960 --> 0:11:04.960 international company. You said your teammates helps you understand money, 0:11:05.080 --> 0:11:08.160 So like, who are these teammates and my team? And 0:11:08.200 --> 0:11:13.600 now my team my team for me? When I started, 0:11:13.720 --> 0:11:16.640 all I always wanted cars and just to guard and 0:11:16.840 --> 0:11:19.400 somebody closing that front, you know what I mean. As 0:11:19.440 --> 0:11:22.200 you said, when you grew up, he didn't I didn't 0:11:22.240 --> 0:11:23.360 have it, you know what I mean. So now have 0:11:23.440 --> 0:11:25.600 all his money, you just want to spend and live 0:11:25.640 --> 0:11:28.000 and get all the way you couldn't get back in 0:11:28.040 --> 0:11:30.080 the days, you know what I mean. But then they 0:11:30.080 --> 0:11:32.120 sat me down. Listen, you need to look at all 0:11:32.160 --> 0:11:36.199 these athletes showed your life, and they started naming a 0:11:36.240 --> 0:11:37.280 few athletes like yo. 0:11:37.240 --> 0:11:39.760 This guy's bro, this guy's bro, this guy's bro. 0:11:39.840 --> 0:11:43.880 Because all they do they don't think about at some 0:11:43.960 --> 0:11:45.600 point you have to retire, you know what I mean. 0:11:45.800 --> 0:11:48.040 They don't think about the end product. I mean. 0:11:48.080 --> 0:11:51.360 And they kind of just educated me on what's going on. 0:11:51.440 --> 0:11:54.240 And that's all I really got smart, you know what 0:11:54.240 --> 0:11:56.440 I mean. And as soon as I decided, I was like, Yo, 0:11:56.480 --> 0:11:58.079 I'm gonna retire to stay Like Yo, we need to 0:11:58.080 --> 0:12:01.040 start puttings in place. Make sure you retired, you have 0:12:01.080 --> 0:12:03.120 no problem, you know what I mean. So my team 0:12:03.160 --> 0:12:06.840 really opened my eyes to a lot of things. Surprising 0:12:06.880 --> 0:12:09.559 to see how much a lot of athletes go broy, 0:12:10.000 --> 0:12:10.520 you know what I mean. 0:12:11.160 --> 0:12:13.640 From here today, in no time, I. 0:12:13.559 --> 0:12:15.199 Think you kind of set the bother and trying to 0:12:15.240 --> 0:12:18.640 feel world because it was like, yeah, we had Carl Lewis, 0:12:18.760 --> 0:12:19.400 and we. 0:12:19.320 --> 0:12:22.120 Had some prominent athletes, but nobody had done it like you. 0:12:22.720 --> 0:12:27.160 And and so my question is now, is like, when 0:12:27.520 --> 0:12:30.240 you're looking at the landscape of it and you look 0:12:30.240 --> 0:12:32.440 at the impact, do you see stars coming up like 0:12:32.480 --> 0:12:34.320 you and and having that type of confidence and that 0:12:34.400 --> 0:12:36.840 level of business added from Jamaica. 0:12:36.600 --> 0:12:38.080 Well for many well Jamaica for sure. 0:12:39.280 --> 0:12:43.880 In Jamaica, I think right now, the cop guys we have, 0:12:44.080 --> 0:12:45.839 we have a lot of time, but a lot of 0:12:45.840 --> 0:12:48.920 these guys don't the determination and the work drive they 0:12:49.000 --> 0:12:51.720 don't have, you know what I mean. Everybody wants to 0:12:51.720 --> 0:12:54.120 be great, but they don't know what it takes, you 0:12:54.120 --> 0:12:55.760 know what I mean. I've seen I've seen in my 0:12:55.800 --> 0:12:59.040 own two eyes, bro like athletes that are so talented 0:12:59.480 --> 0:13:01.199 and I go, yeah, this guy's gonna be great, you 0:13:01.240 --> 0:13:03.480 know what I mean, But the work ethic when they 0:13:03.520 --> 0:13:06.760 come to the track that I'm tired today. 0:13:06.320 --> 0:13:09.959 My answerings hurting. It's always excuses, excuses. 0:13:10.440 --> 0:13:13.040 I'm like, bro, you can't make you can't make it 0:13:13.400 --> 0:13:16.079 if you're going to find excuse every day, you know 0:13:16.080 --> 0:13:19.040 what I mean? And I always said to them, listen, 0:13:19.160 --> 0:13:21.800 I come on every day. I think I'm tired, but 0:13:22.160 --> 0:13:24.000 I know what it takes. So I come here and 0:13:24.040 --> 0:13:26.640 I work hard every day and no mind not push myself. 0:13:27.320 --> 0:13:30.200 I mean, so right now there's this at least, But 0:13:30.320 --> 0:13:32.960 who wants it? That's a question, you know, when you 0:13:32.960 --> 0:13:36.240 guys race this is I always change my mind. The 0:13:36.360 --> 0:13:38.960 race is are sponsored by companies, But is there a 0:13:39.000 --> 0:13:40.800 prize money when you win the race too, because I 0:13:40.880 --> 0:13:42.880 know a lot of people make their money sponsorships. But 0:13:42.920 --> 0:13:44.800 like when you win an Olympic gold, is it the 0:13:44.800 --> 0:13:46.720 look and the doorsems come from winning the goal or 0:13:46.720 --> 0:13:48.800 is there an actually cash prize for doing nothing? 0:13:48.920 --> 0:13:51.280 So the World Championship comes to the cash prize. 0:13:51.320 --> 0:13:53.760 Okay, yeah, so you if you win or you break 0:13:53.760 --> 0:13:56.840 the world record, you get a cash prize, you. 0:14:01.040 --> 0:14:01.559 Get paid. 0:14:01.559 --> 0:14:04.280 But at the Olympics it's just it's just a glory, 0:14:04.360 --> 0:14:06.360 you know what I mean. And I think it comes 0:14:06.360 --> 0:14:09.000 because if you're in the Olympics, then sponsorship, so you 0:14:09.080 --> 0:14:12.600 still get paid, but not like the World Championships. 0:14:12.960 --> 0:14:14.360 And that was the big thing. It was supposed to 0:14:14.400 --> 0:14:15.000 be amateur. 0:14:15.520 --> 0:14:17.720 And that's why for a long time NBA players or 0:14:17.720 --> 0:14:21.600 professional athletes, because it's supposed to be all for amateurs. 0:14:21.640 --> 0:14:23.960 But it's like that was so stupid, Like obviously it's 0:14:23.960 --> 0:14:25.960 not amateurs. You got the best athletes world. 0:14:26.280 --> 0:14:29.720 It's like it's still stupid though it's still really simple 0:14:29.800 --> 0:14:31.920 to know that you don't get paid for the Olympics. 0:14:32.240 --> 0:14:35.200 We talked about a few athletes are like yo, this boy. 0:14:35.840 --> 0:14:40.640 I was like, you know what I mean, in my 0:14:40.800 --> 0:14:42.280 time at least we were talking about. 0:14:42.280 --> 0:14:43.400 I was like, I'm not doing that. 0:14:43.560 --> 0:14:47.760 That's crazy, like you said, I mean, it's coverage all 0:14:47.760 --> 0:14:48.160 over the. 0:14:48.080 --> 0:14:51.000 World, exactly, sponsorship and they get paid. 0:14:50.840 --> 0:14:52.920 And so there's money that's coming into the Olympics, a 0:14:52.920 --> 0:14:56.320 lot of money with Olympics without athletes. 0:14:56.920 --> 0:15:00.200 There's a lot of money coming in to I'm the 0:15:00.240 --> 0:15:04.120 Olympics because they're sponsors and the figures that they around 0:15:04.240 --> 0:15:07.440 sponsored Olympics because it goes worldwide, I mean, and there's 0:15:07.480 --> 0:15:12.040 so much events and exactly, so they get paid. 0:15:12.360 --> 0:15:14.320 We don't get paid, but they get paid, like the 0:15:14.920 --> 0:15:16.800 bow and the college. 0:15:19.080 --> 0:15:20.920 What I'm just saying, right right right, there's a lot 0:15:20.920 --> 0:15:22.240 of money that used to come in. 0:15:22.440 --> 0:15:23.360 No one to get paid. 0:15:23.840 --> 0:15:25.440 I mean, that's what I'm saying like the Super Bowl, 0:15:25.640 --> 0:15:28.400 like we talked about the second episode, it was like 0:15:28.680 --> 0:15:31.840 people pay for their halftime performance and you don't get 0:15:31.840 --> 0:15:32.600 paid for doing it. 0:15:32.640 --> 0:15:36.000 But the look at one point one hundred million people watching, 0:15:36.080 --> 0:15:37.560 you will come for that. 0:15:37.600 --> 0:15:40.600 But let's talk about this because if you're not like 0:15:40.600 --> 0:15:42.840 a track and field you might not understand the dynamics 0:15:42.840 --> 0:15:46.200 about work. So the Diamond League first, the World Championships, 0:15:46.200 --> 0:15:48.840 So can you tell you the Diamond gets people that. 0:15:49.920 --> 0:15:53.560 So dominantly is just like football, like a random football game, 0:15:53.560 --> 0:15:55.800 you know what I mean, like the NFL game, So 0:15:56.040 --> 0:15:58.760 every Sunday have a normal football game. 0:15:58.800 --> 0:16:02.000 So Dominantly is like that. As you go, yeah, that's 0:16:02.000 --> 0:16:02.400 in Europe. 0:16:02.400 --> 0:16:05.880 It's a different places they have, like say fourteen and 0:16:05.920 --> 0:16:09.480 it's in different places of the work, so different time 0:16:09.520 --> 0:16:11.600 of the year and stuff like So you just go, 0:16:11.800 --> 0:16:14.800 you compete and you get prize money and stuff like that. 0:16:15.120 --> 0:16:17.840 And then the World Championship is like when you compete 0:16:17.880 --> 0:16:20.800 with your country, you know what I mean, It's similar 0:16:20.840 --> 0:16:23.960 to the but but it's just for track and field. 0:16:24.240 --> 0:16:27.680 So but the Diamondleague you make way more money if 0:16:27.720 --> 0:16:28.720 you win. 0:16:28.800 --> 0:16:38.440 Yeah yeah, yeah, No, the World Chap if you are right, 0:16:38.520 --> 0:16:41.600 So you get prize money, which is standard, you know 0:16:41.640 --> 0:16:44.400 what I mean, But it depends on who you are. 0:16:44.960 --> 0:16:46.080 You get appearance feed. 0:16:46.840 --> 0:16:50.000 I mean, so if you're a Me or Shelley and Fraserer, 0:16:50.560 --> 0:16:53.080 Tyson Gear or whatever, they pay you a certain money. 0:16:53.280 --> 0:16:55.960 Everybody price is different, you know what I mean, because 0:16:56.080 --> 0:16:58.360 who's drawing the crowd, that's what they pay you for. 0:16:58.600 --> 0:17:01.080 So I'm showing them the cool saying it's coming, it's 0:17:01.080 --> 0:17:02.680 spread out, it's going to be full, you know what 0:17:02.720 --> 0:17:04.720 I mean. But the regular guys come in, they give 0:17:04.720 --> 0:17:08.800 you less money. So it's like, exactly. 0:17:08.800 --> 0:17:10.679 You might be worth a million dollars, somebody else might 0:17:10.720 --> 0:17:11.040 be worth. 0:17:10.960 --> 0:17:14.880 One hundred thousands the entirety exactly. That doesn't go by race. 0:17:14.960 --> 0:17:16.479 So like when you do the one hundred to surprised 0:17:16.560 --> 0:17:18.879 two hundred four by one and they are splitting that 0:17:18.920 --> 0:17:22.520 four ways out of that work, yeah, four by ones. 0:17:22.560 --> 0:17:24.520 You don't need have four by ones. In the domin league, 0:17:24.720 --> 0:17:27.760 it's always individual races like one hundred meters two hundred 0:17:27.840 --> 0:17:30.560 might be fifteen undred, but every dominant legue to trying 0:17:30.560 --> 0:17:34.040 to mix it up and do different races and different dominague. 0:17:34.040 --> 0:17:36.520 So it's not the same thing. So like you are, 0:17:36.800 --> 0:17:39.520 you know, at anomaly because you're so successful. But I 0:17:39.720 --> 0:17:43.240 assuming most track athletes aren't really making that much money. 0:17:43.280 --> 0:17:46.199 So how do you what do you think a solution 0:17:46.320 --> 0:17:49.119 to that can be to make more profitable. 0:17:49.359 --> 0:17:51.240 We have talked about this a lot. 0:17:52.040 --> 0:17:54.800 It needs to change the format of track and field, 0:17:55.040 --> 0:17:57.960 you know what I mean, because it's not excited. If 0:17:58.000 --> 0:18:00.720 you could get it like soccer, or you guys call 0:18:00.760 --> 0:18:03.399 it like soccer, you know what I mean. Where is 0:18:03.440 --> 0:18:07.159 a team where you own a team and then you transfer, 0:18:07.359 --> 0:18:09.800 then it's to be exciting because then you run heavery 0:18:09.840 --> 0:18:13.400 other week and it's like a team like Jamaican team 0:18:13.480 --> 0:18:16.040 is gonna win. So people look forward to seeing and 0:18:16.080 --> 0:18:18.000 support the team. But it's just individuals, you know what 0:18:18.000 --> 0:18:21.240 I mean. And I love these guys. They don't have 0:18:21.280 --> 0:18:23.840 the energy and the flair and fun, so it's kind 0:18:23.840 --> 0:18:24.400 of boring. 0:18:24.200 --> 0:18:24.320 You know. 0:18:24.520 --> 0:18:27.040 But you need to build the sports to the point 0:18:27.040 --> 0:18:29.159 where people want to watch it, you know what I mean. 0:18:29.320 --> 0:18:31.119 And I feel like if they really do it like 0:18:32.000 --> 0:18:35.800 of soccer team type of shit, it'd be good. Did 0:18:35.800 --> 0:18:37.919 you go in because when you're talking about making it 0:18:37.960 --> 0:18:40.879
