I feel like this is pretty common for anybody in any sport that has some big event, whether your team makes it to the World Series or you're a player and you're going through your playoff run and you get to the peak and then it's on the other side of the hill.
But I legitimately, after March 2023...
April, I was kind of like in a low emotional place because I was like, man, I was so high for so long.
And it was just like just WBC, WBC, WBC, like baseball, baseball, baseball, staying up all night, watching the games in Japan.
Obviously, the way that the tournament ended couldn't have been more perfect.
So it was just like so much stimulation.
And then all of a sudden it was nothing.
It was like normal, regular baseball season, which was great before.
But then now that it was like right after the WBC, it just didn't.
I don't know, man.
It was crazy.
But yeah, it was I was thinking like, man, we got three whole years to wait.
And all of a sudden it's here.
Well, I'm trying to remember what the first thing that was released or like announced by MLB.
Because for me, I did my like way too early projections, like rosters.
Like literally it was 2023 and I was already trying to project like Team USA in Japan, Dominican Republic, which they're not too far off.
We should analyze those sometimes.
But yeah, so that was interesting.
But then I think the first thing that came out was...
Like pools, like the pool hosts.
