It really does.

That's what she said.

That's what she said.

I'm doing great, and that was one heck of... I can't... I forgot I said half that stuff.

You blacked out.

I thought he got way too much credit anyway, so it's great.

Yeah, I think last year for Pete was probably as valuable of a second half as he could have had.

And people are going to be listening right now going, what, he struggled in the second half?

Awesome.

And you know what he did in September?

He figured it out and he got back, he got to his 30-30, like,

People always do that.

We see in the first half, like, a guy will get 14 wins, and we're like, here we go, Denny McClain, 30 wins is coming.

Guy hits 35, 40 home runs.

Like, he's going to hit seven.

It is so hard to do that month after month after month, and the league adjusts, and everybody's telling you how great you are, and things can slip just a little bit.

So I thought what he went through last year and then figured out a way to right the ship in September –

I just think it's so huge, and I think that he learned from that, from talking with him.

I think he understands how hard this game can be at times, even though all the success he had, and I think we're going to see an even more polished Pete Cromstrong this year, and I think, you know, does that mean he's 40-40?

No.
