in the last week of June, and you're going to therefore start the finals, anticipating you potentially could have a seven-game finals, it means you've got to start roughly June 1st, working backwards. That's how you end up with a training camp in October season that starts roughly the beginning of November. I mean, people's television habits have changed dramatically.

I'm reaching for my phone. We all carry a TV with us everywhere we go now. I look at the kinds of things I would put you guys in the category of nontraditional media, that the amazing popularity now of podcasts like yours, people's enormous amount of time looking at screens, listening to audio feeds of things. The other thing about us moving into July

It's sort of, let's just say, okay, you can move the finals into July. Then you got, we have our summer league. When does the, you know, and, and part of it, it's, it's actual consideration. Like when do they get vacation?

And part of it is, it's always in our, the tradition, this league, there's sort of the equivalent of a summer vacation that matches up with family vacations. Even once, you know, summer league ends, it's sort of the third week of July, you know, things can settle down a little bit, you know, in, you know, for the last part of July and August.

And now I'm not talking about the league office, largely for the players and the rest on their body and everything else. So, you know, I will say, you know, I think all these things we will continue to look at. I don't think in the short term we'll do it.

I just last say, I mean, there used to be this notion, you know, in television they call it hut levels, households using television, that traditionally because of summer vacation and things, that once you got to July 1st, there were fewer people watching television, which is why, again, historically, you know, all the primetime shows, you know, when we were younger, would launch in the fall.

You can almost think of the beginning of the NFL season when all the shows would launch. I think, though, now, as I said, like, people's television habits have changed dramatically. Like, streaming has changed a lot of those conventions. Like, new shows launch on Netflix all the time. You know, in July, nobody thinks twice about it. So I think these are all things that we'll continue to look at.
