We’ve seen a lot over the years—teams rise, fall, rebuild, and rise again. And if there’s one thing we’ve learned from working with champions of all ages, it’s this:

Even the strongest players can only carry chaos for so long before they stop showing up to calm it.

You don’t get to hand someone fire and expect water in return every time.
Respect isn’t earned through noise—it’s proven through consistency, humility, and effort.

If someone’s always been the peacemaker while you’ve been the storm…
It’s not on them to keep holding the umbrella.

💭 Just a reminder that sometimes, the greatest trophies are the people we take for granted. Don’t wait until they’re gone to realize they were the MVP.

And sometimes… they wear #74.

Not food for thought as much as an alternative approach to a situation not yet faced for you:

If you’ve ever laid, eyes open on a floor, in not your blood and you hope it looks like yours realize that if you hold your breath nonstop until you pass out you look the same up until your eyes blink or close. They cannot see how hard it feels like your heart is beating after the first 1:30-2 minutes you still look like you haven’t moved, don’t gasp, don’t blink: there is no itch, sting, or amount of oxygen that you’ll never have worry about anyway if you let it be known. Thanks to short attention spans they all move on.

And if you run you never benefit your lead time by checking in on your enemies they shouldn’t have been closer than your friends. You lived backwards fortune cookie understanding. Friends have no measure of distance or mass that can stand between. Enemies are closer because friends are always with even if you don’t bring.
