So Don, if you turn on the yes network, you'll see Michael and Paul aren't of you

saw it yet and you can tell immediately, like just from the way that they look on camera,

you can sort of see the darkness in Yankee Stadium, but they're going to give it a shot

And I just don't think it's a great idea to the end of the world. No, but in the grand

scheme of things, Peter, are these games that important considering the healthier fans

and to your players? Yeah, it's interesting. I'm seeing Meredith out there, no mask, anything
