When he played.

That's all I'm saying, right?

You got him for nothing.

You're not ruining your chances really this year of affecting your lottery status.

Like, I feel you guys, but that's just my pushback a little bit.

I don't think you ruin your chances at the lottery, and you got a free AD.

I'm not really attacking the Trey Young of it all, but those two together with some good young pieces, like...

Not even a, not even a question, Howard, there's a world where that happens.

Like I'm not guaranteeing you that happens, but I've always said like, I'm very leery about bringing in a bunch of young players and, and, and, and having them have to learn the ropes by themselves in, in a, in a culture that I don't want to call it.

It's culture is the wrong word in a losing situation, right?
