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.
