00:00Yesterday at Bark in the Park, there was a young woman who came up to Dave and I at the end of the program and said,
00:07I'm going to get the stopwatch on your sports and make sure that you cover the Mets just as much as you cover the Yankees.
00:14I do.
00:14So she begged to differ on that one.
00:18Well, hold on, hold on, hold on.
00:19Covered in her Mets regalia because the Mets minor league team was playing the Blue Claws yesterday.
00:25Fantastic. One team is the number one team in all of baseball.
00:30One team, that same team, has more world championships than any sports franchise in North America.
00:39So are you saying that it's okay to ignore the Mets as you continue to do?
00:42I never ignore the Mets ever. Ever.
00:45Zero percent ignoring.
00:47Your first response was, I do.
00:50That makes me believe that you think you cover the Mets and Yankees the same amount of time?
00:55I don't ignore. Let's use our words carefully.
00:58If you say ignore, you're saying that I don't cover the Mets on the sports report.
01:01I do, and I'm not going to have myself or my sports report blaspheme.
01:05Her contention.
01:06I cover the Yankees more.
01:08Her contention, and I repeat, was that you cover the Mets at a lower rate than you do the Yankees.
01:14May I now defend myself?
01:16Just let me talk, please.
01:17To which your first response was, I do cover them the same amount of time.
01:20This is about me. You're bringing it up.
01:22You won't let me discuss it.
01:23Let's go right ahead.
01:24Okay, when the Yankees are the number one team in all of baseball, and they're the number
01:29one sports franchise in the history of North America, that's a bigger deal than when the
01:34Mets are.
01:35Now, having said that, I cover the Mets every single sports report.
01:43And when the Mets were on top in 2015, and they were in the World Series, they got top
01:50billing.
01:51It's not about Yankees and Mets.
01:54It's about who's number one.
01:56When both teams aren't playing good baseball at the same time.
01:59You're saying that you do cover them the same amount, but that you don't.
02:05I cover the Mets every single sports report.
02:08Do I not?
02:10Do I?
02:10Are you not here?
02:11Her contention was, you do more coverage on Yankees games than you do on Mets.
02:25That's all I'm saying.
02:26I don't do more coverage.
02:29It sounded like she had a stopwatch ready to go to make sure the coverage was equal.
02:34Well, she also said that I was the best part of the morning rat race.
02:38She said that, hold on, because you're leaving out something.
02:40She said no one would replace Marty Martinez until Eastside Dave.
02:44She said she's a major fan, but she did.
02:47She just said all this.
02:48So if we're going to talk about what the woman said, we're going to say that too.
02:50However, she also is slightly incorrect is all.
02:55I cover the Mets every single sports report.
02:57When one team is having more success than the other, they get the spotlight.
03:02When that one team is the team with 27 championships, they get a little bit more spotlight.
03:07When the Mets get to 27, will you cover them equally with equal time?
03:12In the year 9,000 AD, I will.
03:16So it's okay to cover them with less amount of coverage than the Yankees is what you're saying.
03:21I don't cover them with less amount of coverage.
03:23You are like literally ignoring everything I say.
03:26So let's be clear.
03:27I'm listening to what you're saying.
03:28In 2015, when the Mets were on a streak and went to the World Series, that's all I talked about.
03:34I led all sports reports with the Mets, not the Yankees, because they were the team on top.
03:38Right now, both teams are playing well.
03:40However, the Yankees are playing better.
03:43They have the number one record in baseball.
03:45So it's okay to cover the Yankees more than the Mets.
03:48They have the number one record in baseball.
