Well, Mr. President, thank you. We're honored to be here in the Oval Office and to have you
00:07
announce the 2027 NFL Draft is a special treat, so thank you for your support. Also, thank you
00:14
for your support in the Commander's New Stadium. We agree it's going to be a great site. We think
00:20
it's going to be great for our fans here, and it's great to come back home, and so we're very
00:26
excited about that. Josh is leading the way on our behalf and the mayor, so we thank both
00:31
of them for that. We also want to thank you because in the first term, you helped us get
00:37
a Canadian trade deal, which we want to make sure we note again and make sure you note.
00:43
Canada does not like me too much. They gave a great American company a lot of money that
00:50
you deserved, frankly. Thank you. The draft has really become one of the great
00:56
entertainment and sports events. Just a week ago in Green Bay, we had over 600,000 people
01:03
attend. The year before in Detroit, we had close to 800,000. As the President remarked,
01:10
we believe it will be well over a million when we come here to D.C. in 2027. So we not only
01:16
believe it's a great site, we believe it's consistent with what the President said, which is investing
01:21
in our communities, investing specifically here in the nation's capital, one that I grew
01:26
up here in Washington, D.C., and is particularly important. We think we can have a tremendous
01:31
impact on this community, and it will not just be an event. It will be something that will
01:36
show the world how far the nation's capital has come and where it's going. So we're very
01:41
excited about that. And we thank everybody here. We thank you for your support. We know it's going
01:48
to be a great event. Mr. President, we thank you again. Thank you very much. You're welcome.
01:51
Good luck with it. Yes, thank you. Thank you.
