But as you said, priority for the NFL, not going anywhere.

So we'll see.

Maybe the best players won't be NFL players and it'll be other players and it'll still be popular and everybody will have a good time watching it in the Olympics here in a couple of years.

All right, next bullet point here.

18 games and the international slate, Lindsay.

I had a little bit of a, I don't know if it's a conspiracy theory, but I noticed that this was not necessarily like the big topic in odorous meetings.

It sounds like there were more, you can tell me if I'm wrong, but more like side conversations, murmurs, but...

We don't want the monster headline to be from this owner's meeting about an 18-game season.

And this is on the heels of the NFLPA installing J.C.

Tretter as its executive director, which felt to many of us, myself included, like, oh,

The NFL got what they wanted.

Somebody who's going to be very league friendly and give us what we want.

And it's not going to be hard to negotiate against this guy.

We're all aligned.

So I almost wondered if the NFL just wants a little space between that hire and that news and news of an 18 game season.

So what did we hear about an 18 game season?

And then we can get into the international slate and what their plans are with that aspect.

Yeah, a matter of when, not if, it feels like for sure, even though there are steps to take to get there.

Current CBA is not set to expire until 2030.

So that part is interesting, right?
