But and the great thing is it's licensed to step kind of on the line. We don't want to go over the line and make a dumb ass prediction. No, but we're licensing you. It's okay to be wrong. You will not get mocked. Isn't that a rule? Do we not agree? That's the rule. As you don't get mocked, but I mean, if you say something dumb, we're going to say dumb, dumb, dumb. No, I think, well, at the moment, yes, but I think later when we look bad, oh no, when we

1:00look back, it's no, no, it's just, you have to, you have to be able to make fun of yourself and understand, recognize my bad. I got a wrong. That was horrible to say. Got it, got it wrong. But we don't lose any credibility. Is there any example you could give, Doug? I can't think of one. Not one. No, I can't think of one where somebody made a bad bold ass prediction that people bring up every day. Like somebody may have thought. Like, let's, I mean, like the tag is, come up with hypothetical, total hypothetical. Total hypothetical. Somebody said about the tigers that their bull pin is going to be one of the best and baseball. That's not what, that, no, let's be clear. Is that what somebody said? I don't know. I'm saying that's an example. I don't know exactly what, it's just an example. Somebody comes out and starts talking about how great the tigers bull pin is going to be. And you know, it doesn't age well. If that happened, yes, we would not, nobody would ever bring it up again, right? Probably not, probably not. Probably not. Yeah. Anyway, our bull ass predictions for the Lions in the NFL coming up today at 1102.

2:04Sad news. Barry Melrose passed away. Did he? I didn't see that. Oh, you didn't know. Um, yeah, they did attribute this morning on Sports Center saw news last night. Barry Melrose was awesome on the air. Absolutely awesome on the air. And fun to listen to Epic hair. Epic. Epic hair. And by many accounts, a really good dude. Yeah. From what I was reading. And, um, you know, the fact that the matter is it's, um, catches up to, I mean, time's undefeated and 70 years old seems young, but it is. Yeah. It's very young. I had a chance to meet him a couple of times and he was awesome. It was awesome. He was part of the Red Wing's organization for years. He coached the team out in Adirondack before they were, you know, when they were the Tiger, the Red Wing's mind league affiliate. He was, I mean, great personality.

3:05He coached with those, those teams, the Ali Kings were kind of exciting for a, for a little bit. And got out of coaching and went into the analysis business and was great at it. He was ESPN hockey. He really was. It's sad to learn that he has passed. I remember flying from Detroit to Raleigh, North Carolina in 2002 for the Stanley Cup finals. And he was on the plane and sat right in front of me. And there was at one point we had a very brief conversation there. And it was, it was great. I mean, he was just kind of, I don't want to say happy, go lucky, but he was a pretty, pretty positive guy. And I want somebody that everyone wanted to be around and hear and talk stories and all that. So it's a sad day for the NHL. And the other thing said news, the, the lock more club clubhouse and gross point woods at golf clubhouse, burn yesterday. And you know, it's one of those deals where it was a private club.

4:08So I don't know how many people got on it, but certainly our thoughts are with them. It's too bad. You hate to see that. Yeah. Described as a major fire in the main building at the club, pointing to today's Detroit news. I mean, it's, it's shocking. I mean, I remember when that happened in Oakland Hills, whatever it was six years ago, or five, I forgot how many years ago was, they finally got the club ready to go into the club houses is brand new and it's beautiful. And they restored it to try to be as much what it was before. Hopefully they can do that. Yeah. There was some speculation I saw and I better got to be careful here. But I thought I read that they believed it started in the kitchen and they had also just gone through major renovations. Oh, yeah. So unfortunate, very unfortunate. Yeah. All right. So Lion season opens on Sunday. We have had much discussion about this season and all the waiting is almost done. As it is right around the corner, the buy-in price at Ford Field.

5:11But what do you think the buy-in price would roughly be for the Lions opener? So for right now, ticking on secondary market. Yeah. I saw this, well, according to one, one of the secondary market providers. I will say probably around, in the average ticket price when I saw, I thought it was, weeks ago, I saw that it probably around $400 for Lions ticket this year. I'm going to say at this point, probably close to that, say $350. Kang, do you have any guesses on what the buy-in price for the Detroit Lions season opener is? Secondary market. Secondary market. $2.95. Okay. According to tick picks. I'm sorry. What was that? Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick. With a T. T is in time. Slowly and announce eight. According to tick picks. Yes. The buy-in price for the Lions 10th highest in the NFL $197.

6:13Okay. Well, the highest in the NFL, according to tick picks is $396 for Buffalo's opener against the Lions in their new stadium. And with there being a pretty good team, not a surprise. The lowest. Secondary market price. According to tick. Tick, tick, picks. Picks. Let me, let me, can I guess that's it? Yeah, sure. It's a game that's being played this weekend because obviously only half the team. So I'm giving you that clue. All right. All right. The teams have an opener. Thank you. Tennis-y. Hosting the Jets. Tennis-y. Hosting the Jets at $21. Now I just looked at the schedule. I wasn't looking at the ticket as low as part and I'm looking at that now. Yeah. Yikes. Yeah. $18. $97.
