And 30 years... Look, I covered baseball in the 1980s.

And that's coming out of a time where in the 70s still, you had Drysdale and Gibson, who, of course, were in the 60s and in the early 70s.

And then in the 80s, even 90s, I mean, Pedro, Roger Clemens, those guys would have themselves personally drilled this dude if he'd ever come near a plate in the American League, he never would have hit.

But the world changes.

And now you mentioned bat flips.

So 40 years ago, each one of those guys I mentioned on the list, anybody's list of meanest pitchers and idols of mine in baseball, they would have drilled you.

Now bat flips aren't.

Remember when Mark Gastineau was painted legitimately as a clown for having a sack dance?

And now every single guy, including quarterbacks, has stupid discount double checks.

I won't mention a quarterback that does that by name, but the world changes, and you sort of got to let it go, and everything is done in the name of entertainment.

I don't think they think that way anymore.

I don't think every player does.
