00:00Did you know this was happening before you went to bed last night, or were you woken up with a
00:04series of text messages? It was the latter. I did not think necessarily that this was happening
00:11anytime soon, although I feel like every time we talk about it, you do sort of give that disclaimer,
00:15hey, things can change quickly, and the way we talked about it on early edition last night,
00:21you know, when we had sort of last left it, was that it didn't sound like it was all that
00:27close,
00:27and there were people that were involved in the negotiations that didn't think a signing was
00:32necessarily imminent, and so it's a little bit of a surprise that this deal gets done. I think
00:39someone, one side, had to make a concession here in order for the deal to happen. In my opinion,
00:45it was Gonzalez, but we'll see when the final details and the final numbers on the contract
00:51actually come out. I just, you know, the initial reaction, and this is valuable to the players and
00:56to the agents themselves, the initial reaction is the initial reaction. The initial numbers are
01:01the initial numbers. Those are typically the numbers that can be fluffed up a bit, right?
01:07Yeah.
01:08So that, so it's, when the details come out, we'll see, okay, did he really get everything
01:13he wanted, or did he have to meet them in the middle somewhere in order for him to have his
01:18deal
01:18before the first game of the season?
