Rival the creates such actions. No place like Austin or New York Philadelphia or Saint Louis is doing that kind of passion and when the team whips. And when you can see the players that are so selfish. So narcissistic. And self involved. It makes me really angry. And I love the fact I wish in New York we had. More people on the radio and on television and media that would be -- and call. The people that are responsible from ownership. To getting rid of utilities. I mean getting rid of the guys that -- the heart and soul of the team. -- a lot of them of course retired you know and again that.
