And we've already vetted a handful of them. So I make you vet them as well as part of the process. You want to join fam, you're joining and you have to like kind of abide by what we are going with, right?
Our system. And, um, I just don't want any of these guys to call me three years after the NFL and go, man, like you got a job because I'm broke. I need something, right? I want them in three to five years to be thinking, I want them to see, you know, that happening and then be able to call me and be like, dude, thank you so much. I am so glad I'm not in that, you know, situation.

Yeah, so that's a good point. You know, when you talk about guarantees and in reality, you know, talking to the common people, if you take someone who's been in real estate, right?

How much did my neighbor sell his house for? How much was my house sold for in the past? And what does the current market look like? Right. It's kind of the same thing with players. Cool.
