And then you came back at 5 o'clock and they tried to build a deck and used your stuff. The materials were all on site.

Is Vooch or Kobe White in the conversation? Cause then it can become like a little bit like, who do you want or who is it right now? I'm, I'm open to suggestions.

Like somebody offered up Lori Markin and I was like, come on, dude, that's, that's, I think sharp is good enough with Portland that I would put them ahead of some of these other dudes. Um, I mean, Toronto does not have an option because I think I'd rather have Scottie Barnes than everybody that I've just mentioned.

So let's strike that from the record as if he was even suggested because he wasn't suggested by a team. I'm just going through, okay, here are the bad teams.
