Marley's where are they in the standing?

I don't even know how good they're doing.

Maybe they want those guys down there for the playoff run.

I have no idea, but yeah,

Yes, I mean, I think that you'd be well-served to go down that road while also saying it's not easy to pull guys out of the lineup.

There's already been going to be pushback.

Guys will get ticked off is a nice word if you just start pulling different people out of the lineup when they think they should play to play some young kid just to try to lose.

And these players are going to be around next year.

There is a lasting impact of that you would have to consider.

So many jokes going through my head right now that I'm going to leave alone.

There were not.

No, I mean, I guess maybe the guys who were married with kids and stuff had maybe pets, but the young guys or the single guys, no.

I didn't have a dog until I had children.

You might get traded.

You don't want to have to take care of it when you're on the road.

I get dog walkers and they live in these buildings and it's all fine.

It's not a big deal, expense or inconvenience, but

yeah it was not like it is now now half the team has dogs or more um yeah no that was not a thing uh and i almost think if i think old school enough if i go back to the days like the idea of having a practice with the dogs out there running around and doing like the you know the westchester dog routine like there would be some guys that i play with early in my career be like what the hell is this like what are we doing here and and

And that's not to suggest it wasn't great.

Clearly, it was well-attended, young people, spring break.
