Uh, you know, certainly, Sam, this is a story that we talked about a little bit. Can't really expect anything like this to happen in sports, especially with the amount of money that these players are making to risk their lives, their families, and their salaries and their freedom over a couple of pitches in Major League Baseball. Uh, kind of a sad story for me to see this happen, but, uh, Major League Baseball definitely stepping in. And right away doing something, Sam, that we've talked about many times. If I mean, people talk about not eliminating bets or eliminating bets, max bets on all this stuff across the board is the easiest way to let people still have fun but take away a lot of the bad actors involved in the game. Yeah, definitely. I think, you know, it's really unfortunate that we keep seeing these scandals happen, but it's really significant with, you know, the latest one with these two pitchers. Uh, you had pretty much a direct response from Major League Baseball and sports books, not just saying we condemn this, we're working to, you know, crack down on this kind of stuff and this is the legal industry working the way it's supposed to. They actually changed the rules here like you're saying, Craig, they now have a $200. Limit on these micro bet pitch markets where you can bet on, uh, what pitch a pitcher's gonna throw, whether it's gonna be a ball, a strike, whether in these cases too, you can bet on how fast the pitcher was throwing stuff that was very easily manipulatable by, you know, a single pitcher can just, you know, in these cases through one in the dirt to start an inning and it was actually, um, you know, some of the sports betting technology and integrity stuff we have that tracked, hey, this was the craziest arm angle, uh, Class A. Has ever thrown this season. So it's one of the reasons we're able to find this stuff, but I think it is really significant that now you're having these new betting rules in place as a direct response from these, you know, these scandals, whatever you want to call them, coming to light. Now, we obviously don't know how many times something like this has happened previously before we had, um, you know, legalized sports betting widely adopted in the US, you know, offshore sports books, haven't been able to offer a sophisticated market. As these, so you know, maybe there's a little difference there, but I think now the question is what else do we look at when you talk about the easiest way to curtail this kind of stuff, you know, last year when Jontay Porter, who was on a two-way contract in the NBA, uh, when he, it was found that he was part of the scandal, sportsbooks stopped offering player props on two-way contract players. That was their response. And, you know, we have another response here, uh, which goes obviously further with, you know, limiting the amount you can. That. So I'm really interested to see what happens next, whether it's another sport like the NBA which is dealing with its own, you know, scandal, so to speak, and its own headlines for the FBI and what else comes because this is the same FBI team that also brought, um, the, the NBA scandals to light. So I'd have to imagine they're working on some other stuff as well right now and the timing is definitely not a coincidence, but definitely some very significant news in the gambling world that now you're not gonna be able to bet more than $200 on a specific pitch market.
