And that's just the way it is everywhere.

It was like that in L.A., a little less like that in Miami.

Yeah, it seems like at 27-11, it's showing up a little bit.

How hard is it to manage in Philly?

Media, personalities, you have managed a lot 12 years.

It's been a little while since you've been a manager.

How hard has it been or challenging has it been to sort of get used to

You know, sort of that back and forth with player, back and forth with GM, back and forth with president, dealing with the media on an everyday basis in Philadelphia.

How has that sort of been back and forth?

It's been good, obviously, when you kind of do what we've been doing.

We started winning pretty quickly.

So then you get a little bit of credibility until you don't win, right?

You know, you lose a few, then you lose that credibility.

But it's been pretty good.

Yeah.

I've always liked like East Coast kind of mentality playing in New York, that little bit of an edge to the fan base.
