Some people don't even believe me.

I don't cheer, man.

I don't.

It's just the way I'm wired.

I'm hardwired as a sports journalist.

How am I supposed to

you know get into those scrums and ask uncomfortable difficult questions if i i've got a foam finger up at my uh you know in my spot where i'm working i'm not trying to be a hero i'm not like i get it but i just it's not the way i think like i was in the building working on the broadcast when sydney crosby scored the golden goal and there's an angle you can see that goal

He goes in, the place goes nuts.

You can actually see me get up and walk around to the Zamboni and down.

The whole place is going bananas.

And I just like stone face, just walked over there.

I was like, I got to do an interview with Sid here.

I got to figure this out.

So no, man, I'm pretty, pretty level headed.

As boring as that answer is.

hell is wrong with you guys yeah well bobby matt just said he was he just stared and i'm like nothing he goes no i have well i don't care my really quickly my golden goal story i interviewed sid on the ice afterwards and uh i asked him three questions the first one i asked my assessment tell me about the goal

The second one I asked him, I said, what was it like sitting in that room after letting the lead get away, knowing you were having to go into overtime after blowing a lead?

And the third one I asked him was, you know, how do you think you played, Sid?

Because, you know, had this not been you that did this, some might have, you know, questioned your tournament a little bit.

Because, remember, it had been quiet.
