I mean, it's it's a product of your own design, right?

Like that's.

You know, in an effort to.

To stop the spending at the top and and and.

and live in the world that we were living in for, I don't know, how long was that last CBA?

What did they go, 10 years?

Are they 10-year deals?

I don't remember.

But you put this system in and it puts us in the situation that we're in, which is we've got to be able to field these teams in a lot of cases in these markets where we can't get these huge free agents.

We've got to be tanky.

We've got to find ways to refresh
