Here it is.

In terms of why now, I think it's a combination of where we see our team, what we thought was important to add to our team, and the type of players we're getting back.

And when you add all that up, we were comfortable giving up the type of quality that we gave up.

And then this one was about a possible extension for Peralta.

I'm not going to speculate on that on day one here.

We'll let Freddie get acclimated to the organization.

And any conversations that we may have or have in the future, I think we're going to do our best to keep private and not talk about publicly.

There you go.

So we shall see if that comes in the future.

But right now, not so much.

By the way, did you see the number?

of viewers for the football game on Monday night, the Miami-Indiana game.

They're huge, weren't they?

30.1 million viewers for the college football championship.

And so after that, Fernando Mendoza, who did say today that he is indeed going into the draft, which we expected, was on Fallon last night and talking about the accomplishment that he and his teammates just pulled off.

we finally got our coach, Cignetti, to smile.

Which makes sense.

And then CBS Sports Network is showing this late-game touchdown he had where he dove into the end zone.

Here was Mendoza discussing it.

And all of a sudden, some instinct tells me, let's run right.
