“Hi Dad. Yeah, I spoke with Brad. Tough call. We talked about family and you guys and babies and stuff…. So listen Dad. We got a good offer. Yeah it’s about a season and a half less money overall. 7 years Dad! I know it’s less per season than Calgary but it’s okay; I committed to you guys and Covid and so it’s not money but about getting to you guys. Are you ready Dad? Lewis says it’s ok to tell you. I’ve signed with Columbia. Yeah! Columbia! Not British Columbia…the actual Columbia. That’s right up the street from you guys! What?!? What do you mean no Columbia. I’m still hungover from the wedding. What? Where is Columbus? …click…. Dad?”

This is the oddest timeline.
