Baseball Isn’t Boring
Baseball Fans Aren't Boring: The Mets' Music Man

I said, oh, maybe I can do recap songs.

Baseball Fans Aren't Boring: The Mets' Music Man

I was like, eh, how do I even do that?

Like, what's the possibility of even doing that?

But then opening day that year, the Mets have an SNY theme song.

And so I did a whole remix of it, like a whole kind of just my own rendition of it.

And then that went viral.

And it was on SNY that night.

I'm like, oh, okay, then this is some momentum here.

Try to figure out what's what.

And then the recap songs were at the end of that year when the Mets were out of it.

So I kind of just realized, okay, this is actually now people are, the feedback was just overwhelmingly positive.

So I was like, okay, maybe there's something here.

A hundred percent.

And that's like the thing, you know, cause you see, and I'm always such a supportive guy.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
Baseball Fans Aren't Boring: The Mets' Music Man

Like you just see people out there grinding and I always, I love seeing that, but you also understand like, wow, this really,

is a grind, you know, just to start from, you know, wherever you're beginning from.

Baseball Isn’t Boring
Baseball Fans Aren't Boring: The Mets' Music Man

Cause you do it for the passion of baseball.

And as much as you started from that passion, it's also very easy to get either competitive or kind of just to get into that headspace of like, okay, you know, this is now getting less joy out of it because of the traction that you are or aren't getting.

And I think at least for me, I've just kind of felt more fulfillment because it's just music and baseball to me.

So I'm kind of just combining two things that I love and I'm just enjoying doing regardless.
