Before the break we talked about or teased, doesn't make sense for the Seahawks to pursue one of the biggest names in football.

Before we get to that, I'm going to go back to baseball because Curtis, you have some more details leaked about the CBA.

Oh, yeah. Jesse Rogers of ESPN said that if the Players Association does agree to a salary cap, it would basically be similar to what the NBA has where it's called bird rights in the NBA.

And if a player accrues a certain amount of years with one specific team, then those teams can then exceed the salary

cap in trying to re-sign them. So like, let's say a guy has played for your team for like five

years and you want to re-sign him and you're worried that his salary may exceed the salary cap.

You can sign those players. It's just that you'll then exceed the salary cap.

So it's a hard cap, yes, but also there will be or could be, I should say, everything is could.

There's no anything definitive because we're still about, you know, five, six months away from any sort of resolution on this.

I would imagine this goes to the deadline.

But it is going to be, I think, similar to what we see in the NBA in terms of their player movement.

This would obviously, you know, change everything we know about player movement in major league baseball.

But I think we're still quite a ways away from any sort of resolution in this.

Still a lot of time.

Something tells me we'll be going to Curtis a lot in the next four to five months about this whole.

I just hope that once that we don't have to bring on like a lot of these sports business people who we've

had on in the past when these negotiations drag on and on and on and on and on like it's more

fun talking about the games I think than the business side of all most definitely all right
