00:04 Yeah, and I think, you know, free agency
00:08 is, you know, it's a challenge every year. You know, I think it's
00:12 there's a couple components to it. It's understanding the evaluation of the
00:16 player and evaluating the player how he fits our specific
00:20 schemes, right? But then, taking it a step further, there's a valuation
00:24 of the player that a marketplace goes into determining, you know, what
00:28 the league values those players at. And so, it's really twofold. It's the evaluation
00:32 and the valuation in free agency. So, you know, I think those are things that were ongoing
00:36 right now. We went through free agency meetings with the coaching staff last week. It was great
00:40 to get their input. And, you know, I think that over the next couple weeks here, I think that
00:44 the marketplace really wants to get into that legal tampering period,
00:48 whatever that means. You know, I think the market then starts to declare
00:52 itself. And so, then I think when you marry those things that if there's an
00:56 evaluation that we like and then the market says the value is a place that we like,
01:00 we're going to strike. We'll be aggressive in that, knowing that
01:04 hey, that's a way that we can improve our roster, but also being smart about it
01:08 and making smart choices for our team, not only this year, but it's got ramifications
01:12 moving forward, too.
