Okay. Let's take a look at the note here. If someone says that he or she has

something in the bag, it means that he or she believes that it is almost certain

or guaranteed success of something. So it's in the bag. Don't worry. We got it.

It'll work out. It's in the bag. Don't worry about it.

We're going to win. It's guaranteed no doubt about it. All right. Let's continue. The

phrase is believed to be derived due to an old baseball superstition. It

started during an amazing twenty-six game winning streak. The New York Giants

had in 1916. Remember the New York, the Giants used to be a New York team a long

time ago. They eventually moved to San Francisco and they are the San Francisco

Giants now. But there was one time where New York actually had three baseball

teams. They had the New York Yankees . They had the Brooklyn Dodgers and they had

the New York Giants as well. Okay. It was believed that if the Giants had

the lead going into the ninth inning and if the ball bag that which contain you

know, foul balls during the day. I guess guess at that time they used to just

collect the foul balls and throw them in a bag and at the end of the day or

whatever they would bring bring that in. But which contain foul balls gathered

during the game was carried off the field. The thinking was the game was in

the bag and could not be lost from that point on. So the Giants would definitely

win. So if going into the ninth inning. So they'll take it. They're certain that the

other team won't catch up. They thought well that was it. That kind of guaranteed

their win and that, that's what they believed. So that's where the phrase,

in the bag is supposed to come from. That's where it's believed to have come

from. Yeah. You know, sports have a lot of superstitions. A lot of a ... lot of sports

players have a lot of crazy ideas about what will bring them luck or continue

their streak . But anyway, that's how it started.

Okay. Let's continue. Let's give just three examples here. Example number one.

He has no serious competition. The Oscar is in the bag. Yes. Or I'm sure that actor

is going to win the Academy Award this year. He has no serious competition. The

Oscar is in the bag. Don't worry. No. There's no real competition. Nobody they,

they should definitely choose him. It's in the bag. It's almost guaranteed.

All right. Anyway, number. two. Things are going well with the negotiations. However

we still have a few sticking points to work out it's not in the bag yet. This is

another way we could use it. We could say you know, it's not quite there yet. Not in

the bag yet. It's not guaranteed yet. But you know, we're getting close. Okay. Number

three here. Don't worry. We have a lot of connections with the higher-ups. You know,

people in high positions in that company. In that company , you'll be chosen as one

of the new employees hired. It is in the bag. Don't worry. They'll do it for us.

It's guaranteed. It's in the bag already. You already got the job. Don't worry

about it. Okay. Anyway, this is just how we use it. I hope you got it. I hope it was clear.

I hope it was informative. Thank you for your time. Bye-bye.
