00:28marketplace if he goes to july 1 tomorrow no so he's gonna have to take a haircut he's gonna have

00:33to take a home not really a hometown discount he only played there a couple of months he'd have to

00:37take a discount off the market price to come back to florida the question is does he want to play in
