Well, that's the thing.

When I saw you at the World Series, that certainly was the vibe.

And now we get the winter meetings coming up.

And I think that that's one of the things until I started talking about it that you realize this is what's special about the winter meetings is, yeah, you get the rumors and you got potential deals, but it's also the sense of community.

I mean, this is the time, right?

I mean, you've done it.

It's funny you bring up San Diego because that was where –

That was the Lester deal was.

Like, that was it.

I remember, because I remember speaking of Rosenthal, him and I followed Seth Levinson into the elevator.

So it was me, Seth, and Rosenthal, like, leading into what ultimately became this all-nighter, which I don't know if you were a part of, probably.

But this all-nighter to get John Lester, convince John Lester to come.

Yeah, so...

That was crazy.

That was crazy.

Listen, I know that there's – you're probably membership to many, many elite clubs with many leather-bound books, many airport –

airport statuses and everything else.

I am not.

But that elevator ride made me feel very special.

It was three people, and it was the people who I would say, these are the two people I want in the elevator right now.
