Todd: OK. Kevin, we're back here in the forest. Um, we're gonna talk about sports.
Kevin: OK. Great. I love sports.

Todd: OK. Why did you stop?
Kevin: Well, it wasn't exactly by choice. I wasn't drafted 3 high enough in professional 4 baseball to, in order for me to sign, so I ended up retiring from baseball and persuing other things.
