Yeah, and there's going to be a lot of posturing, as there has been the last couple of years.

Yeah, and like if they're not backing off the salary cap thing, that also introduces like if you...
I don't think this will happen.

having parallel like shotgun CBAs might be a little too much, even for my, even for my spreadsheets.
Bobby at tipping pitches, you guys also do a lot of fun stuff outside of just the labor talk.
How was the response to the baseball team personality quiz, by the way, for anyone who didn't see it, look up tipping pitches on social media and you can take this quiz, answer a bunch of questions and find out which baseball team represents your personality.
