It's going to be fun. It's going to be fun. And I remember the last time we were on the podcast together. It's been a little bit so we're we're we're we're coping getting our our guys back and we'll be ready to go like you said training camp next week and summer is officially over.

But I'm looking forward to covering training camp Adam. I know it's long days, a lot of work, but seems like it's going to be a lot of fun this year.

Mind to watch the quad brisker film. I was that had that that need that urge to get football back. So yeah, next week it starts and I'm looking forward to it. Like I said, I mean, nothing says four year anniversary, like watching some to quad brisker. I think it's exactly.

I think this is the perfect move there.
