No, Jack's awesome, man, Jack. 0:01:40.040 --> 0:01:43.200 So I mean when we when I started Barstool, I 0:01:43.240 --> 0:01:45.520 started the New York branch of Barstool, and at that 0:01:45.560 --> 0:01:46.639 point it was just a blog. 0:01:46.680 --> 0:01:47.600 It was just writing. 0:01:48.160 --> 0:01:52.440 And I view what what I do now on Instagram 0:01:52.480 --> 0:01:55.560 and YouTube as just video blogs. Like I know the 0:01:55.680 --> 0:01:57.920 term vlog is out there, but I believe these are 0:01:57.960 --> 0:02:00.400 These are true vlogs in the sense it's the same 0:02:00.440 --> 0:02:02.880 topics and the same jokes and the same take. 0:02:03.240 --> 0:02:05.240 I'm just saying it now rather than writing it. 0:02:05.280 --> 0:02:07.360 And when I started it, seeing a pretty you know, 0:02:07.440 --> 0:02:10.520 pretty good deal of success. Uh and and I kind 0:02:10.520 --> 0:02:12.640 of told everybody at the company. I was like, you 0:02:12.760 --> 0:02:15.200 all should do this. This is just the new way 0:02:15.320 --> 0:02:19.200 to blog. And Jack Mac has really been the only 0:02:19.240 --> 0:02:21.640 one that took it and ran with it as well. 0:02:22.560 --> 0:02:24.280 I kind of, you know, I make my bones on 0:02:24.320 --> 0:02:27.360 the Instagram side, he brushes the TikTok side drives me 0:02:27.440 --> 0:02:28.919 crazy how many followers he has. 0:02:28.919 --> 0:02:34.240 Right, I'm more of an Instagram guy hence KFC guy 0:02:34.240 --> 0:02:35.440 and Comno's TikTok boy. 0:02:35.600 --> 0:02:37.560 Yeah, I guess. 0:02:36.800 --> 0:02:37.000 Yeah. 0:02:37.840 --> 0:02:40.400 It's like WWS WCW back in the day. You know 0:02:40.480 --> 0:02:42.280 which Monday night show where you watch it. But he, 0:02:42.320 --> 0:02:44.720 I mean, he is smoking it on TikTok. He's doing 0:02:44.760 --> 0:02:45.239 a great job. 0:02:45.280 --> 0:02:47.760 Now, before we talk baseball, we're all baseball fans. 0:02:47.800 --> 0:02:49.160 Baseball's popping, right. 0:02:49.560 --> 0:02:51.720 We've been doing this a long time and it's been 0:02:51.720 --> 0:02:55.320 cool to see you just explode through that time. 0:02:55.360 --> 0:02:57.040 But I don't know a lot of the backstory. 0:02:57.400 --> 0:02:59.800 So again, thanks for giving us that New York scoop 0:03:00.240 --> 0:03:03.040 Portanoy always talks about. He was a triple Crown winner 0:03:03.040 --> 0:03:06.080 in high school baseball. I know you're a big basketball guy, 0:03:06.320 --> 0:03:08.520 so this is your chance to brag a little bit. 0:03:08.560 --> 0:03:11.120 What's your impressive stat How good were you? Were you 0:03:11.120 --> 0:03:13.760 good athlete growing up? Or were you always just a fan? 0:03:15.080 --> 0:03:17.720 I mean I was, I played sports growing up. I 0:03:17.760 --> 0:03:19.959 would not you know, I don't have a claim to fame. 0:03:19.960 --> 0:03:22.720 I don't have faster hands than Delano Deshields like David's day. 0:03:23.360 --> 0:03:25.600 I claim to fame is I was the captain of 0:03:25.680 --> 0:03:28.840 my basketball team in high school. Okay, we were two 0:03:28.919 --> 0:03:32.839 and eighteen as I was captained, So that to give 0:03:32.840 --> 0:03:34.960 you a feel for what kind of team it was. 0:03:35.400 --> 0:03:38.800 So that was that's probably where I peaked. In like 0:03:40.800 --> 0:03:44.520 fifth and sixth grade little league, I was like getting bombs. 0:03:44.120 --> 0:03:46.240 And then in basketball I was like a little bit bigger. 0:03:46.440 --> 0:03:50.520 And then once everyone was athletic, big strong, breaking balls, 0:03:50.680 --> 0:03:52.600 you know, all like it all went to shit after 0:03:52.640 --> 0:03:54.720 that because if if you got a little taste of 0:03:54.760 --> 0:03:57.080 puberty before you went to the big baseball field, that's 0:03:57.080 --> 0:03:57.400 when you. 0:03:57.320 --> 0:03:59.680 Were hitting bombs. That's when you had the opportunity. That 0:03:59.800 --> 0:04:00.200 was me. 0:04:00.560 --> 0:04:03.120 I stopped growing after twelve, but I was hitting bombs, 0:04:03.120 --> 0:04:06.920 and literally that was it. And again, as far as backstory, 0:04:06.960 --> 0:04:09.000 people always ask Rich and I, how'd you meet man? 0:04:09.000 --> 0:04:11.680 You guys been working together so long, You and poor Nooy, 0:04:11.720 --> 0:04:14.560 all these guys go so far back. How did you meet? 0:04:14.960 --> 0:04:17.240 Tell us the story. I want to hear the story, 0:04:17.320 --> 0:04:18.359 like what was the encounter? 0:04:18.880 --> 0:04:22.080 It's a it's all you know, work and content related. 0:04:22.120 --> 0:04:22.640 So I was. 0:04:22.800 --> 0:04:25.040 I came out of school, I got my MBA, I 0:04:25.080 --> 0:04:28.880 was an accountant. I was doing the finance worlds. And 0:04:29.080 --> 0:04:31.960 once I got to work, and I was so miserable 0:04:32.200 --> 0:04:34.479 working like a cube job. Right, there was a guy 0:04:34.560 --> 0:04:37.120 there who gave me a list of websites like here's 0:04:37.240 --> 0:04:40.120 you know, kill time reading these blogs, and barstool was 0:04:40.160 --> 0:04:41.680 one of them. So I found barstool as a fan. 0:04:42.240 --> 0:04:44.880 I was reading that, really enjoyed it. Started my own 0:04:44.920 --> 0:04:48.400 website very in a very similar vein as Barstools, like 0:04:48.520 --> 0:04:51.599 pop culture sports. Mine also added like a mix of 0:04:51.640 --> 0:04:55.039 like nineties nostalgia and like movies and stuff like that. 0:04:55.360 --> 0:04:57.000 And so I was doing that just for fun. I 0:04:57.040 --> 0:05:00.960 just needed like a creative outlet. And and while I 0:05:01.000 --> 0:05:03.920 was doing that, he put up a post being like 0:05:03.960 --> 0:05:07.520 I'm looking to expand out of Boston, like I conquered Boston. 0:05:07.720 --> 0:05:10.000 We want writers from different cities, and the first one 0:05:10.040 --> 0:05:12.960 I'm looking for is New York. So at that point 0:05:12.960 --> 0:05:14.760 I had a good job. I hated it, but it 0:05:14.800 --> 0:05:18.719 was paid well, it was safe, all that shit, and 0:05:18.839 --> 0:05:20.479 some of my friends were like, you got to you 0:05:20.480 --> 0:05:23.240 gotta throw your name in the ring here, and I 0:05:23.400 --> 0:05:25.000 was like, let me see what happens. I sent it 0:05:25.000 --> 0:05:27.680 to him and he said something to the effect of like, 0:05:27.720 --> 0:05:29.800 I've already seen this. Someone's already sent me this and 0:05:29.839 --> 0:05:31.880 told me to keep an eye on this. So he 0:05:31.960 --> 0:05:34.600 was already reading it, and it kind of went from there. 0:05:34.680 --> 0:05:36.359 He narrowed it down. We kind of did like. 0:05:36.360 --> 0:05:39.760 An audition for to to get the New York job, 0:05:39.960 --> 0:05:41.560 and he narrowed it down to me and one other guy. 0:05:41.560 --> 0:05:44.640 He couldn't decide between us, and he said, how about 0:05:44.640 --> 0:05:47.560 you guys split the job, split the money, split the writing, and. 0:05:47.520 --> 0:05:49.839 You can keep your old job, which for me was perfect. 0:05:49.880 --> 0:05:51.479 I didn't have to make a jump, I didn't have 0:05:51.520 --> 0:05:55.200 to risk anything, and that's and then, you know, so 0:05:55.360 --> 0:05:57.240 I did both jobs for a couple of years, and 0:05:57.240 --> 0:06:00.800 then once Barstool really started to take off, I made 0:06:00.800 --> 0:06:02.880 the jump full time. But as far as like meeting Dave, 0:06:02.960 --> 0:06:06.120 it was really just through through the internet. I mean, 0:06:07.240 --> 0:06:09.200 I think Once I took the job, I made a 0:06:09.240 --> 0:06:11.080 trip up to Boston and we like went to dinner 0:06:11.200 --> 0:06:13.320 and and met. But you know a lot of it 0:06:13.360 --> 0:06:16.200 was just internet nerd stuff like you blog eye blog. 0:06:16.080 --> 0:06:20.440 Rights and you clicked, and that was what around nine, 0:06:20.480 --> 0:06:22.920 I guess, right, early two thousands. 0:06:22.680 --> 0:06:23.800 Was when I started New York. 0:06:24.200 --> 0:06:26.520 And it was funny because it was like he it 0:06:26.560 --> 0:06:29.440 was almost like we were reverse Like I'm the Irish 0:06:29.440 --> 0:06:30.280 guy in New York. 0:06:30.360 --> 0:06:31.920 He's the Jewish guy in Boston. 0:06:32.120 --> 0:06:34.599 Like wet you know, all his teams won, all my 0:06:34.640 --> 0:06:37.320 team's lost. So there was this like, you know, mirror 0:06:37.360 --> 0:06:39.320 image of each other that I think worked really well 0:06:39.360 --> 0:06:42.080 early on me versus him. And then obviously he's you know, 0:06:42.160 --> 0:06:45.240 gone onto a whole other level. But you know, yeah, 0:06:45.279 --> 0:06:48.240 we uh we were the first expansion city, and I 0:06:48.240 --> 0:06:50.919 think we did a good job of showing Dave that 0:06:51.120 --> 0:06:51.920 like this worked. 0:06:52.000 --> 0:06:55.000 You know, he would have just packed up and been like, 0:06:55.080 --> 0:06:57.080 let's just go back to Boston. But that led to 0:06:57.240 --> 0:07:00.640 Philly and then Baltimore and eventually Chicago, and you know, 0:07:00.720 --> 0:07:02.640 that was kind of when the Empire started to explode. 0:07:03.279 --> 0:07:06.040 Can't talking about the the ogs like you and Dave 0:07:06.120 --> 0:07:09.800 and Big Cat. I couldn't fucking believe the pull of 0:07:09.960 --> 0:07:11.520 the Jordan card. 0:07:11.920 --> 0:07:15.120 Do you see that? Like before everyone else did. That's unbelievable. 0:07:15.680 --> 0:07:19.600 I'm surprised that you're surprised, because you know, there's certain 0:07:19.640 --> 0:07:23.760 guys Dave, certainly, I've had a long running series called 0:07:24.360 --> 0:07:26.520 Dave Portnoy has sold his soul to the devil, because 0:07:26.520 --> 0:07:29.360 it's just like the amount of stuff. He's very talented, 0:07:29.440 --> 0:07:31.560 very funny, works hard, all that shit, but the amount 0:07:31.560 --> 0:07:34.000 of stuff that just fell into his lap, Like if 0:07:34.440 --> 0:07:38.200 Boston doesn't have this dynasty, the exact Dave. 0:07:38.240 --> 0:07:41.040 First of all, Dave goes to Michigan, same class as 0:07:41.040 --> 0:07:41.520 Tom Brady. 0:07:41.600 --> 0:07:44.600 Yeah, and Tom Brady takes over Boston, The Red Sox 0:07:44.600 --> 0:07:47.200 break the curse, the Bruins win the Cup, the Big 0:07:47.240 --> 0:07:50.600 Three Celtics win a title, and all of barcels rise 0:07:50.720 --> 0:07:55.840 coincides perfectly with title down where it just made everything possible. 0:07:56.280 --> 0:07:58.400 And then Dan is, you know, right behind Dave as 0:07:58.440 --> 0:08:00.400 another one of these guys who's just you know, absolutely 0:08:00.480 --> 0:08:04.160 taken over. So yeah, I'm like, those guys should play 0:08:04.160 --> 0:08:06.280 the lottery every day because yeah, they're gonna they're they're 0:08:06.360 --> 0:08:09.080 they're they're gonna pull the Jordan rookie cards. 0:08:08.840 --> 0:08:09.800 Like that does unreal. 0:08:10.320 --> 0:08:12.120 It's a perfect storm of Austoin. But you know what, 0:08:12.560 --> 0:08:13.920 I like you, KFC. 0:08:13.960 --> 0:08:16.160 You're more I feel like you're more relatable. I really do. 0:08:16.440 --> 0:08:16.600 Yeah. 0:08:16.600 --> 0:08:18.000 As a result, Yeah, that's. 0:08:19.120 --> 0:08:20.080 In this internet world. 0:08:20.080 --> 0:08:22.240 I feel like you either got to be like really funny, 0:08:22.440 --> 0:08:25.160 really talented, really relatable. You got one of those things 0:08:25.160 --> 0:08:27.160 going for you. And that's always kind of what I 0:08:27.240 --> 0:08:28.480 you know, the everyman sort of thing. 0:08:28.520 --> 0:08:30.760 And I always say a Mets fan, if you're a 0:08:30.800 --> 0:08:33.240 Mets fan, it means you have good character. It means 0:08:33.240 --> 0:08:35.520 you're a nice, loyal and humble guy. You know what 0:08:35.559 --> 0:08:37.520 it's like to lose. And that's why I teamed up 0:08:37.559 --> 0:08:39.360 with this dude, because he's a Mets guy and I 0:08:39.440 --> 0:08:41.319 know you're a big time Mets guy, can'fc. 0:08:41.440 --> 0:08:43.079 I want to know your take on our bet this year. 0:08:43.120 --> 0:08:46.520 Covino and I decided to do better regular season record 0:08:46.679 --> 0:08:50.920 one thousand dollars and then for each game differential one 0:08:51.000 --> 0:08:52.760 hundred bucks. So let's say the Mets have a four 0:08:52.800 --> 0:08:55.000 game better record than the Yanks. That's fourteen hundred bucks. 0:08:55.080 --> 0:08:56.640 Is to say, good bet for me or not? 0:08:59.800 --> 0:09:03.520 I think I mean the AL is just so bad. 0:09:05.480 --> 0:09:08.320 But once the you know, prior to injuries, I would 0:09:08.320 --> 0:09:10.040 have said that's not a great bet, But the way 0:09:10.040 --> 0:09:12.840 they have started, the way the Yankees have got injured, 0:09:13.040 --> 0:09:14.960 I think that's gonna be a solid bet. I don't know, 0:09:15.040 --> 0:09:17.480 I think it's I think it's gonna be a I 0:09:17.480 --> 0:09:20.000 don't think it's gonna be a huge differential for either 0:09:20.200 --> 0:09:22.280 whoever ends up winning. But I think the way the 0:09:22.280 --> 0:09:25.040 Mets are playing, They're only going to get stronger. Uh. 0:09:25.120 --> 0:09:27.520 The AL being bad is kind of an X factor there, 0:09:27.559 --> 0:09:28.400 But I think you're both. 0:09:28.440 --> 0:09:29.880 You know, that's gonna be a coin flip button comes 0:09:29.880 --> 0:09:30.160 down to it. 0:09:30.200 --> 0:09:31.760 I think you nail it. It's gonna be close. But 0:09:31.920 --> 0:09:35.040 the difference is how stacked the NL is, which is 0:09:35.040 --> 0:09:37.120 a shock when you think about. For me, I'm an 0:09:37.120 --> 0:09:39.760 AL kid growing up, I'm a Yankees fan, right the 0:09:39.880 --> 0:09:42.320 NL growing up, I always thought it was so boring, dude, 0:09:42.320 --> 0:09:45.400 And now the NL is so exciting with the Padres 0:09:45.400 --> 0:09:48.240 and the Dodgers and the Phillies and the Mets. 0:09:48.440 --> 0:09:51.120 Baseball, like you said, the way Disney went through their 0:09:51.120 --> 0:09:55.360 fucking renaissance in the nineties, baseball right now, and baseball Yeah, 0:09:55.520 --> 0:09:59.040 it's it's back right now. And I'm a big Lindor guy. 0:10:00.000 --> 0:10:02.439 Can't believe the way Pete Alonzo is playing the thought 0:10:02.520 --> 0:10:06.760 of us so willy nilly almost let him go this. 0:10:07.080 --> 0:10:08.200 I was never on that train. 0:10:08.320 --> 0:10:12.360 Maybe I know he never you know, recaptured what what 0:10:12.200 --> 0:10:14.880 he what he put up as a rookie. He was declining, 0:10:15.040 --> 0:10:17.839 you know, there was some issues, but like he's your 0:10:17.840 --> 0:10:20.000 all He's gonna be your all time leader at home runs. Yeah, 0:10:20.040 --> 0:10:23.080 he's gonna put up, you know, at least thirty bombs 0:10:23.080 --> 0:10:26.200 a year for a franchise that really has never had that. 0:10:26.559 --> 0:10:28.319 And if they do, it's a couple of guys here 0:10:28.360 --> 0:10:31.000 and there. People were turning their nose up at him 0:10:31.040 --> 0:10:32.800 like he was some scrub. I was like, are we 0:10:32.880 --> 0:10:33.920 are we talking about the same guy. 0:10:34.000 --> 0:10:34.959 I can't understand that. 0:10:35.000 --> 0:10:37.079 It's you know, like it was a negotiating tactic. I 0:10:37.120 --> 0:10:40.480 think to downplay his value because he's such a great met. 0:10:40.440 --> 0:10:43.280 Well, we're talking on Fox Sports Radio when we're filling 0:10:43.280 --> 0:10:47.439 in for Dan Patrick this morning about how Luca Nico 0:10:47.480 --> 0:10:49.720 Harrison said, Oh I didn't know the fans cared. 0:10:50.280 --> 0:10:52.160 I got How crazy was that? How crazy? 0:10:52.720 --> 0:10:55.120 I think Steve Cohen is really in touch with the fans, 0:10:55.160 --> 0:10:56.880 but I don't think they realized how much met fans 0:10:57.120 --> 0:10:58.640 like Pete Alonzo some you know. 0:10:58.760 --> 0:11:01.080 Well, but I also on there. I think a couple 0:11:01.120 --> 0:11:06.120 of things happened. One they came out of the Soto negotiation. Negotiation, 0:11:06.240 --> 0:11:08.480 I think they had Boris fatigue. I think that was, 0:11:08.520 --> 0:11:10.920 you know, they were sick of dealing with him, and 0:11:11.040 --> 0:11:14.679 for whatever reason, as I understand it from what I've 0:11:14.679 --> 0:11:18.120 heard on like insiders, like there was truly no market 0:11:18.200 --> 0:11:21.000 for him, which I just can't believe that, like you know, 0:11:21.080 --> 0:11:23.880 the Rockies or the Twins or somebody who can just 0:11:23.920 --> 0:11:27.080 throw out, you know, a contract to but when there's 0:11:27.200 --> 0:11:31.160 nobody bidding, Like, why are you gonna bid against yourself? 0:11:32.400 --> 0:11:32.600 You know. 0:11:33.040 --> 0:11:35.080 I didn't like how it drew out and it kind 0:11:35.080 --> 0:11:37.080 of like made him look like a chump. 0:11:37.120 --> 0:11:39.319 But I don't know. At the end of the day. Also, 0:11:39.480 --> 0:11:41.960 it's like he means thirty million dollars. 0:11:42.080 --> 0:11:45.199 Yeah, it's not like, yeah, it's not like he ended 0:11:45.280 --> 0:11:48.360 up signing like a veteran minimum, you know. And I'm 0:11:48.360 --> 0:11:50.400 sure he's he's playing his way into a ton of 0:11:50.400 --> 0:11:53.160 money right now. And I can't decide whether I'm so 0:11:53.280 --> 0:11:55.199 happy for him. It's great for the team. I'm sure 0:11:55.200 --> 0:11:57.800 there's parts of him that's like, fuck yeah, like I'm 0:11:57.880 --> 0:11:59.720 showing you, guys. And then there's also parts that he 0:11:59.760 --> 0:12:01.719 must be like, why couldn't I just do this eight 0:12:01.760 --> 0:12:02.200 months ago? 0:12:02.360 --> 0:12:02.960 God damn it? 0:12:03.000 --> 0:12:05.880 Exactly, I got one less messing and we'll fucking get 0:12:05.880 --> 0:12:06.440 off the Mets. 0:12:06.600 --> 0:12:09.719 I love your Mets love, but I gotta ask you. 0:12:09.800 --> 0:12:12.719 You know, Gary Vee, Gary Vaynerchuck always talks about how 0:12:13.000 --> 0:12:13.800 you love losing. 0:12:13.840 --> 0:12:14.520 I love losing. 0:12:14.640 --> 0:12:18.120 Is a Jets guy's talking questions I losing. 0:12:18.920 --> 0:12:21.040 I just had him in the studio today. 0:12:20.800 --> 0:12:23.240 Gary is the central We've known Gary for years, and 0:12:24.040 --> 0:12:26.439 I've asked him about this. What if the Jets were 0:12:26.480 --> 0:12:28.000 to win? I think about that for guys like you 0:12:28.040 --> 0:12:30.080 and me, a KFC, if the Mets were to win, 0:12:30.200 --> 0:12:33.240 does it listen? I want it more than anything, But 0:12:33.280 --> 0:12:37.599 then what almost Let's find out. 0:12:37.480 --> 0:12:39.400 Let's let's figure it out together. 0:12:39.559 --> 0:12:39.760 Dude. 0:12:39.800 --> 0:12:41.319 You guys are little kids in diapers. 0:12:41.440 --> 0:12:46.520 Last time they won, I was I was one months old. 0:12:46.960 --> 0:12:48.400 You know. As far as I'm concerned, I don't know 0:12:48.400 --> 0:12:49.120 anything about that. 0:12:49.520 --> 0:12:53.480 I cannot even fathom whole world I don't know what 0:12:53.520 --> 0:12:54.200 it would be like. 0:12:54.880 --> 0:12:58.360 I think I'm the only person at barstool. 0:12:58.400 --> 0:13:02.000 Of note, like you know, the major bloggers and podcasters, 0:13:02.200 --> 0:13:05.400 that has never won a championship. So I've never like professionally, 0:13:05.520 --> 0:13:08.280 had like the moment to celebrate. I've never had the 0:13:08.320 --> 0:13:11.600 family moment with my mom. I've never had the friend's moment. 0:13:12.679 --> 0:13:14.080 You know, I look at like I always talking about 0:13:14.080 --> 0:13:17.559 fidal Berg, he my co host. Fidal Berg won as 0:13:17.600 --> 0:13:20.400 like a middle schooler, a high school or a college 0:13:20.520 --> 0:13:24.040 kid post college. Professionally, like every walk of life he's 0:13:24.040 --> 0:13:26.240 gotten to do. You know, I was drunk at the 0:13:26.240 --> 0:13:28.600 parade or like I'm with my old man and he's 0:13:28.640 --> 0:13:30.000 got every version of it. 0:13:30.040 --> 0:13:32.640 I've never even done one. I cannot. 0:13:32.960 --> 0:13:34.800 I don't even I don't even think about it. Like 0:13:35.240 --> 0:13:38.000 I watch every day, I watch every year. 0:13:38.160 --> 0:13:39.120 I hope for it, but. 0:13:39.080 --> 0:13:41.040 I don't ever. You know, there are there are people 0:13:41.120 --> 0:13:45.520 right now who are like, this is our year. I'm like, 0:13:45.720 --> 0:13:50.360 I can't, I cannot declare anything like that. I'm just 0:13:50.600 --> 0:13:52.360 I'm just trying to make it to the playoffs back 0:13:52.400 --> 0:13:53.360 to back seasons. 0:13:54.320 --> 0:13:56.720 Which sweeter tho when you finally win as a Mets fan, 0:13:56.920 --> 0:13:59.040 we got to go back to ninety nine, two thousand. 0:13:59.120 --> 0:14:01.520 We don't count that twenty sixteen one game back to back, 0:14:01.559 --> 0:14:02.080 that's bullshit. 0:14:02.160 --> 0:14:05.920 So back to back is a victory. Yo, We're gonna talk. 0:14:05.800 --> 0:14:08.040 To the division, you know, just being you know, any 0:14:08.080 --> 0:14:10.000 sort of consistent. I think that's what they're building now. 0:14:10.000 --> 0:14:10.800 So I'm happy about that. 0:14:10.880 --> 0:14:13.640 I uh, my daughter. I know you got kids. 0:14:13.679 --> 0:14:15.719 My daughter is seven and she's like, dad, when was 0:14:15.760 --> 0:14:18.400 the last time the Mets won the championship? And I'm like, buddy, 0:14:18.520 --> 0:14:20.520 it's fucking been a long time. 0:14:21.000 --> 0:14:22.240 And here's a. 0:14:22.240 --> 0:14:24.280 Question for you, being you know, you're a New Yorker. 0:14:24.440 --> 0:14:26.840 I'm out here in La. All my kids friends are 0:14:26.840 --> 0:14:31.120 Dodgers fans. My daughter went to Hello Kiddy Night the 0:14:31.120 --> 0:14:33.000 other night with her friends and came back with a 0:14:33.120 --> 0:14:33.800 Dodger's hat. 0:14:33.880 --> 0:14:35.640 Didn't show hey hit a bomb? That man, show hey 0:14:35.720 --> 0:14:36.160 hit a bomb? 0:14:36.240 --> 0:14:38.040 And my kids this is how it happens, all of 0:14:38.040 --> 0:14:39.680 a sudden, you got My. 0:14:39.720 --> 0:14:41.360 Kids are like Dad, we like the Mets, But is 0:14:41.400 --> 0:14:43.280 it okay if we like the Dodgers too. My son 0:14:43.360 --> 0:14:45.800 is five and he's like dad, I like Lindor and Otani. 0:14:45.840 --> 0:14:49.960 I'm like, you can't I mean I kind of had 0:14:49.960 --> 0:14:53.280 a rule. I really like went through a mental I 0:14:53.360 --> 0:14:55.440 was when I first had kids. I was like, I 0:14:55.560 --> 0:14:58.480 truly don't know if I'm gonna put this on them, because. 0:14:58.240 --> 0:15:01.280 It was like prior to Cohen and Jets are the Jets. 0:15:00.960 --> 0:15:04.160 And I was like, I don't I don't you know, 0:15:04.680 --> 0:15:06.640 I know, I know we all say it builds character 0:15:06.720 --> 0:15:08.800 and it's gonna be when it finally happens, but like 0:15:08.880 --> 0:15:11.320 it sucks, and it sucks for thirty five years of 0:15:11.360 --> 0:15:14.200 my life, and I was thinking, like, maybe I'm not 0:15:14.240 --> 0:15:16.000 going to put this on them. I just kind of 0:15:16.000 --> 0:15:17.560 had one rule in my mind. I was like, you 0:15:17.640 --> 0:15:19.560 just can't be a Yankees fan. You can't be a 0:15:19.560 --> 0:15:23.640 Patriots fan. Everyone else like, go ahead, right, But then 0:15:23.760 --> 0:15:25.840 once you start, you know, once they become of age 0:15:25.840 --> 0:15:28.600 to really know what's going on. But like the Dodgers 0:15:28.600 --> 0:15:30.840 wouldn't wouldn't bother me except for the fact that, like 0:15:30.880 --> 0:15:31.520 they're the team. 0:15:31.560 --> 0:15:33.120 We have to get over the hump right now, you know. 0:15:33.200 --> 0:15:35.000 But if like if they wanted to be a fan 0:15:35.040 --> 0:15:38.040 of like another team that's on the West Coast or 0:15:38.040 --> 0:15:38.920 in the al or. 0:15:39.120 --> 0:15:42.000 Like the Angels, like fine, love yes, right. 0:15:43.480 --> 0:15:45.520 Root for Mike Trout like that doesn't affect me in 0:15:45.520 --> 0:15:49.480 any way, but it is interesting to like, you know, 0:15:50.280 --> 0:15:52.440 I don't want to curse you with this life and. 0:15:54.560 --> 0:15:56.720 Hopefully it's different though hopefully for them. 0:15:56.920 --> 0:16:00.320 You know, it's like if Steve Cohen turns this thing aroud, 0:16:00.360 --> 0:16:02.640 they grow up like we've known nothing but winning. 0:16:03.640 --> 0:16:04.920 But you know, a long way to go before we 0:16:04.960 --> 0:16:06.120 can cross that room, which. 0:16:05.920 --> 0:16:07.600 Helps with the confidence a little bit. 0:16:07.640 --> 0:16:11.040 Seriously, before you get into coaching kids, I think you 0:16:11.080 --> 0:16:12.880 have a question, Rich. I did want to ask you 0:16:13.000 --> 0:16:14.880 the age old debate that we have all the time 0:16:14.960 --> 0:16:19.880 as a Yankees and Mets fan Keith Hernandez or Donnie Baseball, 0:16:19.960 --> 0:16:23.000 don Manningley and why were you a big Keith kid 0:16:23.080 --> 0:16:23.560 growing up? 0:16:24.400 --> 0:16:26.960 I mean, it's funny again, I was so young in 0:16:27.000 --> 0:16:29.480 the eighties that like I think of Keith, I'm a 0:16:29.480 --> 0:16:33.000 big Keith guys in the booth. Yeah, I've seen his highlights. 0:16:33.040 --> 0:16:35.680 I know what he meant. He was awesome. Everyone from 0:16:35.680 --> 0:16:37.880 that eighty sixteen in the eighties was like, you know, 0:16:37.960 --> 0:16:40.280 baseball lore. But I think of him as just like 0:16:40.320 --> 0:16:46.240 this unbelievable, hilarious, ridiculous broadcaster as far as baseball goes. 0:16:46.240 --> 0:16:48.320 I mean they're both. They're actually probably very comparable. I 0:16:48.320 --> 0:16:50.240 feel like Keith's glove was like out of this. 0:16:50.160 --> 0:16:53.120 World, Oh my god, so comparable. Yeah, he had eleven 0:16:53.160 --> 0:16:56.280 gold gloves, Manningly had nine. Right, Yeah, they go back 0:16:56.280 --> 0:16:56.760 and forth. 0:16:57.520 --> 0:17:00.920 Yeah, and and like maddingly, I don't I hate every 0:17:01.000 --> 0:17:04.240 Yankee with like the fire of a thousand sons. Haus 0:17:04.440 --> 0:17:08.840
