It's you know, there there is the scarcity value of these big f things that we care about so much. voice-verified

Let's just say that that whole thesis is wrong. voice-verified

Yeah. voice-verified

Then then you start looking around and going, Whoa, we need to do something radical. voice-verified

That this this this Premier League thing isn't working. voice-verified

Let's let's let's get out that old European Super League idea again. voice-verified

Let's go NFL of Europe, which is basically where we were voice-verified

seven, six five, six years ago when the ESL idea was percolating. voice-verified

It's where we were fifteen, twenty years ago. voice-verified

It's where we were twenty-five years ago when they went from a knockout to the first group stage. voice-verified

You know, it it this idea comes up at these moments of crisis. voice-verified

So yes. voice-verified

It can come back. voice-verified

The reason we haven't talked about it much is because we've got this new thing and it and the and the clubs are happy enough with it. voice-verified

The whole kind of almost a generation needs to forget about it. voice-verified

And the and the and the ideas that have come, like the Unify League, just utter nonsense. voice-verified

So we're waiting for like another great idea, really. voice-verified

It's very scalable. voice-verified
