Well, the Mets thing was I just wanted to see them win the World Series once in my life. And they did. And I kind of outgrew it. It's like an allergy. You know, they say, hopefully, I outgrew it. So I've saved myself generations of pain after that. And then the rest of it, really, you do become agnostic. People say, well, how can you watch a game and not root?

A thousand, thousand percent. I'll give you just a quick, quick anecdote. Like I, you know, you do this, so you kind of know people, but you're not around them. Then I started working at NBC and I get to be around Chris a little bit more and I get to know him. And Chris and Al Michaels were a terrific team doing Sunday night football for a long time.
