00:00Every now and then there's a reminder that I happen to root for the worst franchise in all of sports.
00:05And that reminder shockingly came from the world of the NHL.
00:09Oh.
00:10Yesterday, Tyrone.
00:11I know you're a big Pucks guy.
00:13They call you Pucks Johnson in Philadelphia.
00:15Flyers are now in a playoff spot for the first time possibly since 2018.
00:19Is that right?
00:19Back in the postseason.
00:20It's been seven years without a playoff spot?
00:22Yeah, it's been rough.
00:22What a loser town Philly is.
00:24Well, let's stay on task.
00:25My goodness.
00:26You were saying something about you being a fan of a bad franchise.
00:29That makes me feel a little bit better about myself.
00:31So the Buffalo Sabres clinched a playoff spot for the first time since 2011, which is worse than the Flyers,
00:40I guess, right?
00:40Yes, it is.
00:41So it's been 15 years since the Buffalo Sabres made it to the postseason.
00:46And that means that there's a new leader in the clubhouse for longest playoff drought.
00:51And I want to be clear that not playoff win.
00:53The longest amount of time you've gone without making it to the postseason.
00:58See, the Buffalo Sabres had that record.
01:00Yeah.
01:01Okay?
01:02Now the New York Jets do.
01:04The New York Jets' last playoff appearance was January of 2011.
01:10I know that because the day they played against the Pittsburgh Steelers in the AFC Championship game was January 23rd.
01:18I only know that because it's the day my son Anthony was born.
01:21Oh!
01:21So I was in the hospital room.
01:24I gave my brother-in-law my credit card.
01:26Told him to run out to one of the electronic stores.
01:30And by the biggest TV they had, I bribed all the nurses with donuts and pizza.
01:35Brought a 55-inch TV screen into the hospital room.
01:40Because you're in the title of like a closet-sized room.
01:43Put it up in the window.
01:45I had a bunch of chairs supporting it.
01:47And we all laid in bed with my wife after she had just given birth to Anthony Carton.
01:51And we watched the Jets lose to the Steelers in the AFC Championship game.
01:56So my son now has hair under his underarms.
02:01He's like a full kid.
02:02Like you talk to him.
02:03He's like a full kid.
02:04He's like almost a little adult.
02:05In the Jewish religion, he is an adult.
02:08All right.
02:08Although he did not have a bar mitzvah.
02:10He's old enough to have had one.
02:12Yeah.
02:13That's how long it's been since the New York Jets made the postseason.
02:18So screw you, Buffalo Sabres.
02:20I hope you lose in the first round.
02:22Because by you making it there, and we had a good thing going,
02:27the Sabres are worse, the Jets are second worst.
02:31And now you decide to make the playoffs for the first time since 2011.
02:37And the New York Jets rise on that totem pole to number one,
02:42the worst franchise in North American sports, Tyrone, the New York Jets.
