| 0:00.0 | There's two controversies I want to address concerning last night's Knicks game. It's obviously not the results because the Knicks made it look easy. It's who was there and who wasn't there. Let's start with who wasn't there. And that is, of course, Ben Stiller. Ben Stiller was seen at the Met Gala. Yes. And he was there and he was wearing a Knicks tie. And every time like the media tried to talk to him, I think he did it numerous times, he responded with Knicks and Six. Which I think is a very pessimistic view because I think this thing will be over in four or five. But whatever. Ben Stiller is at every Knicks game. Ben Stiller routinely gets his fandom question because he's a celebrity. And so the assumption is he can't be a real fan. He actually was on Twitter or X, whatever you call it now, the other day, defending his honor against critics. In fact, would you like me to read you what he wrote? Because he was very passionate. He tweeted out, this was on May 3rd, so two days ago. Hi. |
| 0:55.2 | I like how he starts with a high. |
| 0:55.6 | Hi. |
| 0:58.7 | My fandom didn't start when Twitter was invented. |
| 1:00.8 | Tweets don't equal fandom. |
| 1:01.6 | Ask Spike. |
| 1:04.0 | I've been a fan since 1973. |
| 1:06.7 | L.A. between 92 and 2012. |
| 1:10.2 | My posting is not indicative of my commitment to the team. |
| 1:19.1 | Ask Ron Baker or Lou Amundsen or Henry Bibby or Mike Glenn or Bernard King or Louis Orr or Spencer Haywood. Perentases, I don't actually know them personally, but I love the Knicks. |
| 1:24.6 | I mean, that was- |
| 1:26.1 | All right. |
| 1:27.1 | That was to the- because he was facing criticism that he never tweeted about the Knicks. I mean, that was... All right. That was to the... Because he was facing criticism that he never tweeted about the Nix when they were bad. And his responses, and I kind of see where he's coming from, like, I don't live my life on Twitter. Maybe now I do. Maybe now I'm tweeting it obnoxiously all the time. Yeah, now I have to. Maybe it has to. In order to be fully seen, you have to. Yeah. Or maybe you just use it more like I'm the opposite of Ben. I used to tweet all the time. Like every little sports opinion would pop out on Twitter and now I don't. That's because you have a radio show daily. Well, I don't radio show daily again. 10 to 2. It was 10 to 1 back then. Maybe that extra hour made the difference. |
| 2:01.6 | But my point is my life is different. |
| 2:02.6 | So me not tweeting now, does that mean I care about sports less? |
| 2:06.6 | No, I just, I don't. |
| 2:08.6 | So Ben was very defensive about this attack on him that, well, he didn't tweet in 2013 or 2017 |
| 2:14.6 | or 2018, so he was never really a Nick fan. And you can see by that post that Ben took it very personal. Right. He then, no shows game one of this series against Philly to go to the Metcala. Is that fraudulent? Sean, you're the king of calling fans. Fraudger not. I've slept on this. It's not fraudulent. I have no doubt that Ben Stiller is as real and authentic as Nick's fan as it is. However, Ben Stiller should be at a portion in his life age-wise and in his relationship with Marsha Brady where the foot gets put down. Christine Taylor. Okay. The foot should have been put down. Melody, also known as. You cannot be at that Metcala last night. Doesn't make you a fraud, but what it shows me is, you don't have the stones to tell |
| 2:53.9 | Marsha Brady. |
| 2:54.5 | I'm not going to... so known as. You cannot be at that Met Gallo last night. Doesn't make you a fraud, but what it shows me is you don't have the stones to tell |
| 2:53.8 | Morse-Raddy. I'm not going to the McGallet. Hold on. Was he with her? Yes. Yes. But I only saw the picture with him. She was there. And he was very conservatively dressed. He wasn't like flashy. He's not going to get a, I don't know, $5,000 in your suit or something. |
| 3:09.6 | He just kind of showed up. |
