So all I am saying is I agree with everything you just said.

And yes, Nico Horner is a friend of the station.

And even if he left, I'd like to think Nico Horner would still be a friend of the score.

All that stuff, I've gotten to be.

We did a remote with the man.

So I love Nico Horner in every way, shape, or form.

But let's listen to what the Cubs might get back.

Let's think about how it could fortify the team, not just for one or two years, but into the future as well.

I know that you went through all the numbers.

It's not crazy to think that you could get a better player.

I know that's crazy that you could get a better player in the future for somebody like Nico Horner while not hurting your team right now.

Why can't you have both?

I'm all about the greed portion.

I've said that greed is good.

That's true.

But here's the thing.

We don't know what the Cubs are thinking.

They may just be sitting back, ah, let's listen to all these offers.

And if somebody wants to do something crazy and give us their top prospect and a couple major leaguers and a really good bullpen arm or something like that, you have to listen.

I think that's all I'm saying.
