Hey Linda, how are you?

Entrepreneur, four-time New York Times best-selling author, amazing. I mean, investor, inspirational speaker. We know about these sports fanatic. See his amazing videos on YouTube. It's incredible.

0:50.0

I can go on and on, but I know this. Your middle name is J-E-T-S-Jets. Jets. Jets. You are the biggest Jets fan. I know. And you join me now. And anyway, thanks for a few minutes. Let's start there. Okay.

1:06.0

I'm not underestimating your love and your passion for the Jets. Where did that come from?

1:14.0

You know, came from Eric Godfrey 1982 playground outside. I was just I was an immigrant from Russia. The kids outside ask me who who I like. I go, I have no idea.

1:25.0

I'm not even sure I understood what they were saying. They said you're a Jets fan. I started watching. I never stopped. That was the 82 season. Linda, we went to the AFC championship game. I thought that's how it was going to roll.

1:36.0

If you told me it was going to be 16 more years before I got back to that spot, I might have I might have changed my mind, but I'm a diehard. Listen, I'm one of the few jet bands running around right now.

1:45.0

Estatic. All these people complaining on Twitter, Jets forums. I'm thrilled. I want to go O-in-16. I want Josh to teach Hasselback or you know, the hack and burning.

1:55.0

I want to be terrible. We have a big NF. We have a huge, huge quarterback class coming out the following year, right? The kid from USC and all these and rose in from UCLA, the Wyoming kid.

2:10.0

So I don't think the Jets have been sitting better in a long, long time than right now. And I know that's opposite from a lot of people's point of view. And I'm thrilled because I like being on the opposite side of most people's point of view.

2:21.0

It's interesting. And by the way, most jet fans, there are a lot of jet fans that would love to the word is tank. Tank the season go O-in-16. Look for the future because as this team looks now, although there was breaking news right before you came on, the Jets did sign defense of lineman Mike Pennell from the Green Bay Packers who actually has some skill.

2:41.0

So that might you know, deter from the O-in-16 mark. But you know, Gary, there's so much more to you than the Jets. You're a sports fanatic, but it's interesting because when we've had conversations while your loyalty for other teams when you were a child, kind of like faded off, the Jets, you've stayed true to them. Why is that? What separates them from the other teams?

3:06.0

Well, you know, the dinner the other night and what excited me was I got to drop some serious Rangers knowledge. I do it because I never talk about it. That's because that faithful night and I was there game seven in the garden when they won. That was it for me.

3:19.0

Right. Charlie Hayes two years later catches a ball on the third baseline. And that was it for me with the yanks to Linda. I'm a I'm a guy who loves the climb and when my teams win championships, something happens, but you know, they turn into a pumpkin. And so now it's Jets mix. I'm super focused.

3:36.0

You know, secretly, secretly I wish in a weird way. I wish I was an Islander span like my friend Scott Hunter Mike pie the only two I know.

3:46.0

They still haven't one. And I like the chase. I'm a chase guy more than I don't want to be one of these people that wraps his self esteem into the teams that I root for. Right. Like the only reason I feel good about myself is because I'm a patriotspan.
