A letter is never ill-timed; it never interrupts.
Instead it waits for us to find the opportune minute, the quiet moment to savor the message.
There is an element of timelessness about letter writing.

"This stadium looks cool." Mikaela says we look at the stadium we're going to tonight.

Tonight is the Broncos v Ravens game at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
"It does." I say as I lead our large group up to the VIP queue.
Since Mikaela and I are the owners of the Broncos, we got three suites next to each other for us, my teammates, and my teammates' significant others to watch the game.
I'm excited for us to be able to relax for a night and just hang out.
"Name please." One of the VIP lady asks.
"Katana Solo and Friends." I say.
"Ah yes." The VIP lady says then she leads my group and I up to our suites.
After a few minutes, we arrive at our suites so we head inside and get a tour of the suites then everyone gets food and a drink before we head out to our seats.
"I like our jerseys." My pregnant wife says as we look at the jerseys the Broncos are wearing.

"They do look good." I say.
"The Ravens also have good looking jerseys." Mikaela says as we look at the Ravens' uniform.

"Hey Katana." Talia says causing me to look at her.
"Yes my favorite striker?" I ask.
"Just so you know this is one of the only times I'll wear a Denver Broncos jersey."
"I'm okay with that." I say with a smile.
"Thanks for bringing us to this Katana." Mapi says.
"You're welcome." I say. "I'm glad you all came."
"Is this supposed to be a close game?" Jordan asks as the game kicks off.
Purposefully I timed us arriving here when the pre-match stuff was going on.
"Hopefully, but I think we'll lose because the Ravens have an insanely good quarterback."
Lamar Jackson was franchise tagged after the 2022 season so he's in Baltimore for this season only then he'll hit free agency.
I'm hopeful we can sign Lamar now that our QB situation has cleared up.
"How'd you get out of the Russell Wilson Deal?" Emma asks.
"I was never made aware the extension was happening and I didn't sign off on the deal so the contract was voided and he's a free agent after this season." I say.
Once the Russell Wilson extension was announced, I knew I was gonna fire the old GM and Coach for plotting that stupid trade and extension behind my back, but I waited for the season to end then I fired them both.
"I like who you hired as the GM and Coach." Talia says.
After the Super Bowl in February of this year, I hired Andrew Whitworth as the Broncos GM and Raheem Morris as the Broncos Head Coach.
Both Andrew and Raheem know that they are to involve me and Mikaela in every deal they make.
Andrew and Raheem we're surprised to find out what the old GM and Head coach did and they easily agreed to always involve me and Mikaela in every deal they make.
"Yeah they seem to be good fits." Emma says.
"They've done good so far." I say as Lamar scrambles for a 15 yard gain. "Oh it's gonna be a long game."
Mikaela chuckles then we eat some of our food and sip on our drinks.
"Oh Katana." Jordan's girlfriend Lily says. "I really liked watching your podcast interview."
"That was one of the more fun interviews I've done." I say.
"What was so fun about it?" Jordan asks.
"None of the media has ever been as interest in my tattooing, my businesses, or my music as The Pivot dudes did." I say.
After we talked about the Ukraine stuff, we talked a long time about tattooing, my music, the music landscape, and my different businesses.
"In the limited amount of media I do, I'm tired of talking about sports or that record." I say. "It's really cool I have the record, but I'm more than just my record."
"Yeah the media aren't very good at rolling with new stuff." Katie says.
"No they are not." I say as Baltimore score. "Boo."
My wife chuckles then she feeds me some food which makes me happy.
"Whipped." Emma teases.
"Jessie." I say.
"On it." Jessie says then she flicks her wife's ear.
"Hey." Emma whines then she looks at Hazel and Kingsley. "Babies Mommy's being mean."
Hazel and Kingsley giggle then they hug their Mama.
"That's nice." Emma says with a smile
"Aww." Mikaela says.
"I didn't know your Solace jerseys outsold every other world cup teams jerseys." Steph Catley says.
"Yeah that's pretty cool." I say. "And it also shows Nike, Adidas, and all them that I can and will make better jerseys if they keep messing up and making awful jerseys."
"Are you gonna try and have Solace be a teams kit supplier?" Lieke asks.
"I would like too." I say. "But we'll see what happens."
"Speaking of the Podcast." Jessie says. "What's been the reaction to the Ukraine revelation?"
During the Pivot Podcast we talked about the Ukraine situation and I admitted that it felt so fucking good to kill the 24 Russians who murdered my family.
"I thought more people would think I'm a monster or a psychopath." I admit. "But 99 percent of people I've talked to or seen talk about the interview on social media said they weren't surprised that it felt good to me because they had just killed my family so it was sweet revenge."
"I mean it's a pretty valid feeling to have." Jackie Groenen says.
"Yeah I think a lot of people would feel that way." Alessia Russo says.
"Yeah." I mumble then I sip on my drink and eat my food while watching the game.
After I finish my food, I put my trash on the ground then I pet my doggies as I tune out and watch the game.
"Don't do that." Mikaela whispers causing me to look at her.
"Do what?" I whisper.
"Tune everyone out." Mikaela says. "Nobodies judging you for how you feel."
"I know." I say then I sigh. "I just get sad whenever I talk about them."
"At that is perfectly fine Mrs. Solo." My wife says then she squeezes my hand. "That is perfectly fine."
