Justin, how's it going?

It's going good.

We got a scuba update, which is like, you know, makes my heart a little bit, like, less sweet.

A flutter?

Yeah, like, not a flutter, but, like, I don't feel quite as depressed as I did on Tuesday when we report. And it could change things a little bit. I do think it changes. You know, we discussed, like, are there any cuts? Are you holding, you know, three months? Non-IL spots were the only place we were talking. So really NFBC universe.

And with this news, it's nothing guaranteed.

And in fact, we're both pretty cautious about it, pretty pessimistic on it.

But with the idea that he could maybe return in four to six weeks means you shouldn't cut him anywhere.

Yeah. Just that news alone, even if we're not really buying it. He wants to be back in a month. Right. I'm not buying that. If he has a path that he's, you know, if the doctors are saying, yeah, this can happen via this, that, and the other, and he can put in that work. Of course there's going to be concerns. Is he rushing it? You know, once you anchor to

that initial timeline, if he does come back early and if anything happens, it's all going to be

blamed on coming back early. I don't know enough to know if he's putting himself in any risk.

I just know as a Tigers fan and somebody with him on my main event team, I'm all for this,

baby. Let's go. I need it because i mean i lost him i lost

glass now and i lost void yep thankfully it seems like maybe glass now those issues are just minor

and it was just a precautionary move but you want to scoble the day you traded him

yeah traded for him, I should say.

Yeah.

Yeah.
