What would I do on Tik Tok You would do whatever you want Sean aie that would probably get at least 100,000 views. Give him a wedgie that's at least a million a million. Atomic Attention is the number one asset. What would you go as if you had a costume at ComiCon that if that 30% turned into 70% what would you dress up there I'd go Batman for sure.
like I said, the other one that I would play out is The Flash is very big for me. like when I think about Comics like just you know I was never really fast. You know you understand that right? You know you, you know and so uh, and so I think the flash uh, the flash would probably uh, be in consideration as well. No doubt.
All right, you're very big in the digital world, so like in-person events like that, they're still very important to you. Yeah I think you know. Even hearing uh as I was about to come on talking about, it's nice to be back in studio. I think I I think you know Co did a lot of things changed the world in a lot of ways.
but I think for a lot of people I think it, you know makes people appreciate being together as well I Think it's great that we now know how to use zoom and hangouts and you know I'm sure for both of you, it's saved some travel. I Used to travel literally every week for my businesses pre-co now not having to because you can have the meetings virtually but going to things ComicCon Coming to the stadium it was funny I was my trainer is a big Vikings fan and we were talking like I hadn't brought this up in a while. We talked about the season when they played with our fans and like you know, like you know what I mean and just like it's crazy and so I think I I Love people like even all this incredible crew that you have behind you. If if it was less, if it was just us recording with a camera, my energy would be lower I Like people I like that part and yeah, so even though I'm all about digital really I look at digital as a gateway to in person.
Sure you know, like a lot of people talk about like these kids don't have relationships anymore. they're all so introvert I'm like no, they're not. They make the relationships on Twitch on you know Xbox on social and then they meet those people in real life they have more friends than we did. We had the friends that we grew up with in the neighborhood right? and so you know I don't demonize digital and I definitely don't demonize in person I think the world is both and I like them both I like it I like it all right now we got.
we got to do this. Okay, you're a Jets fan big time Big Part of your life El I Have not missed a snap I need you to hear this What year were you born 81? This is amazing. The 1982 season is my first Jets season. they went to the AFC Championship game.
by the way, they tricked me. Um, but I've literally not missed a snap of a New York Jets football game on TV or physically since. No DVR no TBO no unfortunate thing. thank God In my life of a funeral or you know, or a a good thing like a wedding, nothing zero missed none of them. So I'm not a Jets fan. Like you know, there's levels to it. just like you guys were alltime players. There's levels to being a player.
There's levels to being a fan. I've not missed a snap since basically your whole life. that's impressive I think Mike Greenberg would be impressed by that. Might be impressed by that.
So you're above both of them in as far as accountability. Yeah, I mean I like it. It is disproportionately my biggest passion. I'm a overall big sports fan.
There's other things I like I grew up in the wine business I like that world. but Jets football four? Sure Well it's not easy being green. No, not in this town. and by the way, the way I became a Jets fan was I moved to you know Edison New Jersey When I was seven I went outside bunch of kids were throwing a Nerf football and I again like I said earlier I just moved to the country I'm just learning the ways and they're like what's your favorite team I'm like I have no idea and if Eric Godfrey if you're watching Eric I'm still upset about this.
All he had to do was say Giants and I would have four Super Bowls but he said Jets and I have no appearances and so uh yes, it's it. It is definitely a challenging Journey but you know what's interesting? It worked out for me I grew up a big Yankees and Rangers Fan but when the Rangers won the cup in '94 and the Yankees won in 96, it took everything out of it. I'm now disproportionately Jets Knicks with those two teams because they've already won like celebrated that like hey, done that Check the box I Want I want to I want it's funny I Know it's not the normal way for a lot of fans. A lot of my friends are like that's so stupid.
What is that? that's crazy I Just can't help the way I feel something about this as a fan is about the climb right and then when you reach it, it becomes different for me and so it's probably like your business is like you kind of grow them. You want to. You want to get them early, grow them, grow them, grow them like all right. Move We Hey, we accomplished it.
Get out. Let's start a No one. It's very common for entrepreneurs to do that. My two core businesses the Wine business in Jersey Wine Library and this Viner media business I'm building.
They're like forever family businesses. But to your point, it is very common for entrepreneurs to only like the beginning. Yeah that when it hits scale and you have to worry. Yeah, when you have to manage 100 people like it changes and so yeah, that's how my sports fandom has worked.
I want the climb I like the pain I like the Heartbreak at some level. so the Jets have been good to me. In some ways you like the pain, take the pain Soldier Let's talk about the good with Jets a favorite Jets player Well so uh, just to context this seven years ago my brother who was my partner in the marketing company uh decided that he wanted to be an NFL agent. So we rep SAU and DJ Reid both Corners So as you can imagine, they're going to play out a certain way. but I'm a funny fan like like I'm deep like Chaz Sarat who's like a special teams linebacker who I loved at North Carolina is like a player I literally genuinely like and I think number 82 Gibson I think Gibson um is the X- factor this week? My my deep gut feel is that it's going to be his. You know he's someone to look out for this week cuz I think it's going to be a tough game. To your point I think both. def the Giants defense is making me nervous the last two weeks they look really strong and we're not an offensive Juggernaut um but you know it tends to be like you know players Tony Adams The safety I'm obsessed with he had a obviously a monster.
most Jet fans that are casual got to know who he was last week because of the pick um on Herz and so there's a lot of guys on the team and plus I'm so fortunate at this point I'm such a big fan, we're in the business um I'm I've recruited a lot of these kids at this point I know a lot of the guys and so it gets hard when you know about seven or eight years ago it started to cross over into like I wasn't just watching it on TV I started to get to know them personally. sure even like like for example last year Brax and Baros was one of my favorite players and bra is like the best dude I love bra but I hate bra now cuz he's a dolphin I'm watching him last night like I want nothing every time he like took a punt or a kickoff last time like do not run this back cuz I'm mad now and so you know it gets complex I'm sure for you guys as well. Like you guys played the game. You know the guys in the locker room like you know I'm I'm not sure for either one of you two, if when and if it ever crosses over until you can be a normal fan, there's no normal Fan Experience for you guys, especially with you doing this for a living.
But you know the guys and you have players that you definitely appreciate the way they play because you understand it deeper and I think you know it all goes into all that, right? Justin Hardy Who won't play this week cuz he's hurt which is a big blow to Jets like I love him because I actually am at the point in my fandom where I like really appreciate the Gunner sure and I understand what it means and I understand like how that could be a factor Yeah I'm impressed. The fact that you know what a gunner is you you got Chaz I could learn I don't know what I have no idea what you're talking about Gunner What you talking? What is that the P I'm aware you I love it. Sounds almost like you're like kind of want to get into ownership with the Jets is that you've done your homework. It's the Woody Johnson about this I haven't because I think it's super inappropriate that if you can't afford it, then you're just a poser and like a clown and I have no interest in embarrassing myself or wasting his time. But yeah, I mean you know and I'm proud of this like in my sixth grade I Don't know why my sixth grade asked everyone to like predict what they were going to do when they grew up. but like literally in the little fake yearbook cuz it wasn't even like a real yearbook but in our end of the year picture in sixth grade in uh John Adams Middle School in Edison New Jersey like everyone's like and ask astronaut or an architect was big in the 80s I don't know if anybody everyone was going to be an architect than mine was owner of the New York Jets So somewhere around so in first second third grade I was like you guys I dominated in football I heard I had great you heard about it right it was huge. still talking yeah your dad was like sending me messages like I was I was coming um I have very very good hand eye coordination and so first, second and third grade were remarkable for me. around fourth grade that's when speed, strength, athleticism, size things started to like come into play.
That did not go in my favor. So somewhere around fifth or sixth grade I'm like I'm probably not going to play for the Jets and so but at that point I was already doing the baseball cards thing I was doing lemonade I was very entrepreneurial before that was a word and so I decided that I wanted to own the Jets and you know as I sit here today like even walking in here and like like I continue to have that dream I'm aware that it's going to require a lot of things to go incredibly well over the next three decades, but I'm I'm here for it if you were. If you were an owner, you know let's say couple decades owner or hey, next year you become owner. What are some things you'd change within the NFL uh within the NFL you know I think if I was in committees and like and we're talking about things I think the subjectiveness of roughing the passer is is a real pain in the ass.
you review that reviewable you think I would like that I think that would make us fans and like I I think that is probably the most needed reviewable play I think they should ask the quarterback you know on some like hey, was that passer like no no, no he like barely brushed my dramatic yeah like there's some that are like like yeah asking for the penalty they're like he hit my face but he touched my face like it was like it was. It was a gentle brush I'm going to say if they call it you could like quarter some quarterbacks. It's like the honor System Basketball yeah you should be like it off like no no no was a foul no but but I think look I think the fact that we if we were, if we're making pass interference a reviewable play I I think roughing the passer is a hard right now and and you went through this I'm sure in your career and I think in your era it was obviously different than it is now, but I'm sure you even felt consciously or subconsciously that at some point you started earning the respect of the league and the refs and just the vibe right? and that it would then be more likely that you would get a call than not. I mean you know, you know and maybe you see it different I'm that's actually in question form I'm curious if you think that I can tell you as a Jets fan, we're tired of the NFL finding a player for hitting Zach and not getting a flag. We are now by far the longest tenure team in the league without a roughing the passer and I think a lot of it has to do with Zach not earning his. you know I look at what Jaylen got. You know what? what? Watkins got called yesterday on Jayen Zach's not getting that call and that might be a delusional Die Hard fan saying that, but the data supports it and so I think a reviewable play for that would be big, You know I Think that stands out tremendously to me as one of the things that is a little bit of like an anxiety for fan bases. Um, and the league and I think it would make it a good product I think the other thing I would do I really like what's going on with this flag football thing yeah I don't want our football to become flag football tend that way with listen you know and I get that and look look safety I get it I'm I'm for it like I missed the kickoffs I missed that a lot.
The returns used to be such a factor back. Y Line yeah I By the way, the I mean for all the Die Hard Jet fans people ker kicks it from the 15 but everybody else can start at the 30. you know like just get the ball like they you know 50 I think something the kickoff had them start up there 50 something I I can tell you for for the for the the probably small group of Die Hard Jet fans that are watching this right now the Rex Ryan years if we don't have Brad Smith returning I mean the Jets that Sanchez offense was Bleak yeah our special teams I mean we beat the Steelers in a game that mattered because of a Brad Spit kickoff the the Colts like these were these were, they were essential for the Jets back then and and I missed that part of the NFL So that's that's another rule that I am curious to look at. but I you know the league has done a really good job in a lot of ways.
and um I think a lot of the rule changes the crackback blocks that are now being thrown a lot. I think that's good. Like guys, you know what it is. You guys know this.
These guys are getting so big and fast. Like when people get into real conversations with me about this. I'm like guys, do you understand the average guy what? he his speed and strength compared to 30 40 years ago when we were growing up? Like these guys are so big and fast like we've had. These are appropriate adjustments.
Yeah, we're trying to make the game SA No doubt. Um I Want to go back to something real quick? cuz rumor has it that your Jets fandom started because your mom made you a sweater. It's probably the same color as the one you're wearing right now. It is actually take us back to that sweater. What? Thank you for bringing that up! I Don't I'm going to try not to cry on the on the El Manning show. Um, so you want to be. it was so the I can all the time. The story is pretty quickly after the story I told you about Eric Godfrey and Robbie turnick making me a Jet Vanan instead of a giant fan.
So now they're like you're a Jet fan. This is right before school starts late August the season starts. This is a Jets team that goes to the AFC Championship game. It was a strike season which is interesting so it was kind of I Didn't get to see our real players for a little while.
Nonetheless, everybody H everybody in my town has like those old raggedy 1980s jerseys not the stuff we all wear now. like the half t-shirt like your your dad Saint Jersey like that style like the T-shirt jersey. so everybody had a 24 or an 85 for jet bands that was Freeman Mcneel and Wesley Walker and I wanted one cuz we would play every day every day we'd go to school we'd come home and as soon as we got off the bus the green and white Nerf ball backyard pickup football every day every day and so I wanted one. but we were like pretty poor in that we were just starting to get out of like poverty like we moved to America I Lived in a studio apartment in Queens with eight family members dead, dead poverty like a 100 bucks to our name and now we're heading into like a little bit of like lower middle class.
My parents were not going to buy a $25 Jets t-shirt so my mom at night knitted me a Jets sweater that I would wear with the number five on it because that was my favorite number that was also Pat Ley's number. He was our kicker um but it is my prize possession and it's always been my dream to buy this team and in a stadium like this. whether it's this one or cuz I anticipate to buy in 20 or 30 years if I have to build a new one um to put the sweater in the front when people walk in and I wanted to say you know you can literally do anything you know from not being able to buy a Jersey to owning the whole darn team I have that ambition and it's and it's um my mom is my hero, my mom is my Foundation my dad's unbelievable but like I was an ' 80s kid, my mom was home, my dad worked all the time and the level of self-esteem she built without delusion and she's my hero and um, that Jersey is the most important physical thing I have all right obviously Jets Giants This weekend I'm feeling a a friendly wager or non-friendly either. non friendly, non friendly you remember on the giant side I By the way, I'm confused when giant fans don't like the Jets they you've won four Super Bowls we won nothing.
You're clearly the more popular team in the area like. what's the problem Jet B it Mak sense beef I don't think there's a lot of beef I think I mean you only play every four years. It's a little bit of who runs Theo You got to like people ask you about it so you got to. you Got to This game is though, this one timed out to be a monster game for both teams. Yeah, like the team that loses this week is not going to feel great about their season. So what about something where maybe if Giants win you wear a Giants Jersey not happen iar I've never worn a Kon Tibido cuz he's number five I would wear Oregon tibo cuz it's a five but like not not a Old Miss Old Miss I would wear okay what your college Mount Ida College there is no Jersey so there's no Jersey sounds like a good you'd have to drink a 40 and play CEO You know like if you want to do my college Spades like if you want to do my college social media hit you got to say great win by the Giants this weekend I can't do that I can't do that like what about what about wine I know you like wine I could put up a great case of wine from Wine Library that I could do all right I and for maybe Panini cards I like cards like pan all right sounds a little bitard and some wine? There we go. All right that's a it's a bet. Get in here all right Gary We know you're a big social media influencer.
Um Eli is is kind of new to the social media aspect. wait till he was retired to open up the social media accounts which I think was wise he didn't want to blow up in he could. He could hear the feelings in the stadium. he didn't need to see it on the internet I didn't need to hear the booze in coming out your phone.
but I just give Eli some tips. You know, since he's new to this, what can he do to grow his influence following you know I think The thing that a lot of us loved to learn about Eli especially postc career, but you can even see it when he was playing is the sense of humor thing is there. and so for me Tik Tok is something that is a real worthwhile. Venture for you I think dance moves to dance That that's what everybody thought like six seven years ago Tik Tok is now the predominant social network and it is very conducive to humor.
What would I do on Tik Tok You would do whatever you want right? and so like literally even like a Sean a noie you that would probably get at least 100,000 views. Give him a wedgie that's at least a million million Atomic over the head mil that's 10 million but but I but I really think Tik Tok's one place to look I think the other place I You know one thing I've also observed from afar we haven't really chopped it up. Um, but your business Ambitions are real and so LinkedIn has actually become a monster social network. and I think people still think of it as like a recruiting tool, but using LinkedIn as a social network to talk about your business observations, the things you're thinking about the kind of businesses you're interested in, business advice that you've learned, things you've learned about entrepreneurship that's similar to the athletic realm I think LinkedIn would be another place to really think about it I think those two stand out if as as a third. I I do think and I continue to believe this. We talked about it earlier about the Gunner or like things that you know when you guys watch football, you see different things than the Casual fan I Still Believe on Twitter breaking down something yeah, that people don't see and you guys do this anyway. but on social breaking down something that people don't understand um I think is very, very valuable because what we see and you guys know this I've always been fascinated by the Film Room the next day because I've seen players through the years I understand football enough to know that there's certain people in the secondary who don't want to take the blame for a mistake and will literally react to get the crowd to think it wasn't their fault. correct and I'm like, but that guy has to go in and they're like pointing and they're like no, no, that was your assignment, right? The guy defensive guy comes over and he goes.
That was my fault I messed up that coverage I Can't believe I blew that it's not on you and everybody thinks that he's yelling at the other guy and so I think I think like jumping in Twitter Social commentating of like what happened there was two guys ran the wrong route. that's it. Happened last night. Reason slay got that pick was two guys ended up in the same place.
Clearly something went wrong. Yeah, those kind of observations in real time on social are wildly valuable. I So what Basically what I'm gathering is on Tik Tok Eli should break down the butt fumble. Yes I think you should break down the butt fumble.
Actually, you know what's so funny Sean the butt Bumble doesn't hurt me I'm just trying to get out of here without talking about Victor Cruz's touchdown against the Jets to this day and Eric Smith if you're watching I loved you Number 33 for the Jets Great player, nice hit hard. Almost ended Anquan Bolan's career here. but that play like literally I will go into this Sunday thinking about that praying to God you blaming Eric Smith or you BL I'm blaming Eric Smith I know I know I know I know yeah great throw Kari blown up Victor Yes I understand but I I still have a lot of feelings I understand that started the Sala yeah that was like crazy right there. What? really crazy.
You know what's crazy about Victor's career I was here for that pre-season game I was like who this guy like the same y but it you know and I remember and we were just coming off of Corbette coming out of left field. you know, four or five years seven years earlier. Uhhuh and I was like man. I Hope this Cruz character isn't a real player.
He ended up being a very real player no doubt. I'm just curious. Were you here when Eli bled during the Jets Giants preseason game I sure did I I remember that was scary I I was I I've been here for every I was here for October 943 I was here for the Brandon Marshall in the corner like that was the big one for us we but we didn't make the playoffs in 15 but the game we won here it was uh I mean that's why I'm excited for this Sunday it's going to be the second time I'm in this Stadium as a as a road visitor and so we'll do it again. All right. G We got our Panini cards here. Pack breaking. Let's pack break breaks. What are we call? what are we calling this when box? It's a box.
but these are packs. pack but hold on. Eli What about this? Let's let's talk about your signature. That's pretty good don't you think? I'm pretty impressed.
This feels like this was the first one in a sitting. No, cuz you know you know you're a quarterback so your hand probably doesn't get yeah, you never. It's hard to screw up like Eli You can't shorten that that much. Actually, it's like a big pet.
PE of mine autographs like we have some like you get like a ball of a bunch of people. sign it, you're looking through it, you're like I don't know I can't tell you one autograph of this whole ball. it's like it's like a symbol of I'm like so I take I I take a lot of time I that was a very nice guy thing to say observ because like once you get to like the 100 autograph sometimes 100% I like that it says retro. That just kind of lets you know me.
Got you all right? What are we thinking about here? Who we got here Chase Brown Chase Brown keep going. Is he a gunner Spears gun Spears he got card a little patch see that little o I got a big one here. three out of five. Okay, this is exting because Dez Ritter is by Vayner Sports we signed him out of Cincinnati He had a really challenging play this weekend.
Fumbled at the goal line I don't know if you saw it but he played pretty well. So that's three out of three out of five and auto his autograph. Oh you guys, wait a minute. did you guys load this pack? No who, you guys, wait a minute.
You guys, loaded this that I got all excited about the De I thought it was actually natural. Is that a Rookie of the Year card I look very good in this rookie. What year is that? I'm very old in on the it's just a no stats what's the hand? What do you think? That's what do you think that's worth right there. So I this is probably worth at least six to7 million.
You know that's what I'm taking. You can buy the Jets that five oh M you okay so you guys loaded this pack I appreciate you're very sweet. you just scanned over momes well I'm yeah man I'm just very I want I want to see what you naturally got? all right Jake the rookie and the Saints you know okay you got the card. o ooh this is a nice little card with the look at this wa like went back like throw all a so you can go.
he can get a really cool card. see this is called nightlights and this is I mean a pretty that P Panini did a nice job. they do nice work Will Le right? You never know you it for a while see what happens? That's what a quarterback's arm should look like right there. You see that. See that bicep. This was like a big part of his draft. You remember, sleeves were just long. they covered him up.
This kid's playing well by the way. who's that little spoon? Yeah, spoon. Spon's playing well I think he actually had an intercep against the Giants here did you bring that up on purpose I did not. but I hope we get one this all.
What do we got here? All right here we go: Camu He's a nice little player. We we got a little here rash. he had a nice K By the way, there's the auto look at this Auto where RR RR What is that? He's more strategic than you. He's trying to get his work done quickly.

Yes, all right so kind of look. So you have your like maybe your birth birth November 14th, 75, 1975 Correct born Soviet Union You don't see that very often. That's definitely not in the NFL Maybe a couple, maybe a couple offensive linemen at some point. Obviously everybody lies about their heights.
It might say 5'9 on there, but it's really 5'8 Don't tell anyone please. Favorite Team: Jets Yes Favorite drink wine? yes skills. What's your skills Social media talking? I Think my skills. My true greatest skill is taking as taking on stress and converting it to not be stressed for the people underneath me.
What about your big? Do you think that's a big? that's a big thing in in your guys game right? I Really think that that is the most obvious variable to me in leadership. Someone who doesn't magnify the stress on everyone but is able to be the diffuser underneath their team sounds like a quarterback. A lot of quarterbacks. Yeah, when you lose, hey, you take the blame I Got the shoulders put it on me.
You win. Then you disperse all the credit to receivers all onine offensive line. You let you know you kind of take it on you. El Let me ask question lineman cuz we're tasing.
We're taking all the defense on the stress on and trying to make their job easier. Yeah, you're doing all the hard work and they get all the glory Exactly. Eli Real quick. I've actually always wanted to ask you this: your overall like demeanor Yeah, very cerebr like.
like did you develop that or is that your was that your natural personality or did you develop that I think that's my natural personality. Always pretty pretty quiet kind of watching. The Room analyzing. um you know, don't don't say anything unless something truly needs to be said. You know, just kind of let let you know. show up, work hard. do all those things things really, let your actions speak more than your words. but you think that Serv you in yor yeah I think so just.
but when something needed to be said, you say it and people listen to it. They're like hey, he's saying something here. he said much. he said much like we got that means hey, we got it.
We got that. How it was, was that how the locker room received it? Yeah yeah, we had enough guys on defense that were talking, they were talking non-stop It's like all right already. but yeah I think it. it means a lot more when it's so you know it's coming from your peers and when it's you know hey, look not somebody that raises their voice like he never really yelled at guys.
So but if he got if he got like fired up like you knew like this is important I went a big pregame I never I never felt that a pregame speech has ever won a game before. You know like that's like the defense. Hey get everybody riled up like I'm not going to get guys red up I'm trying to stay calm like I can't like get you fired up when I'm trying to just stay like stay calm so you know leave that spray hand. let him stomp it out I uh I you know I've been running businesses my whole life and the and was the oldest brother in my family and just in general.
Really? Pride I'm very loud and I'm over the top and I'm an extrovert. yeah yeah it says that on your yeah I see it but but I was very very proud that like when bad stuff's happening I always wanted to be the person that stopped it and and re formulated it for everyone below me and I think that Services me well as a CEO as a parent and I think that's that's a real thing that people can work oning no doubt. Definitely working working, You've had great success. Excited for the game this weekend! I'm excited to guys so much for coming! Such a pleasure! Congrats on everything course I know you're a big garage sale guy like here's our garage sale.
You walk up like what's the first thing that pops your eye the Leonard the Leonard gloves I'm a big boxing guy you know cuz you know I love UFC now. but I grew up in that 80s, 7s, 90s boxing and I don't think people understand how much of a beast sugaray was cuz he was such a pretty boy I don't think people and they think he was smooth but he was nasty and some of his wins in his career especially the Hern win I think are special so that caught my eye I saw that the Hav Sandy Kofax and Pistol Pete who's like rookies both rookie cards I know these are gorgeous gorgeous Pete look at that. this people. Kofax was great. But the honestly, besides the gloves, the Boston Garden original bench like yeah yeah, this is crazy. this is absolutely crazy. You wore that I didn't wear this. no you're rocking some Js.
So the homemade sweater like your homemade s. that's what it looks like I've never worn a pair of Jordans in my life cuz I'm such a Nicks fan and I hate Michael Jordan so much that I've never ever worn a pair of Jordans in my life I'm wearing Air Force Ones or dunks but no Jordans I don't think any real Knicks fan over the age of 40 should ever wear a pair of Jordans if you're if you're 25, you weren't affected by it. you don't You're not mad at it. It's cool.

Yeah they I don't think there's a are you a soy? How do you eat cereal? soggy or just like crisp I like it crisp I haven't had cereal in a while but Nei soy I don't like a soggy soy I'm super soy super soggy so you like pour the milk and then you like sit for a while either grape nuts or Captain Crunch two very extreme cereals but both do so well with soggy I like needed. It's almost like not even cereal. It's like a Kasha like I need to be like a That's how I eat it. You drink it like grape nuts right away.
It's like eating rocks. they're that hard. you got to let that soak a little bit a little in there. a little honey? Yeah.
All right. Gary If This Were A real garage sale? What would be the most valuable thing on the table you think? Definitely not. I The Kofax rookie. Or but the garden seats really, you know can have a huge variable.
Those would be the two that I would negotiate down that bobblehead doll. Is that working? Oh this one. Yeah! I Saw this on eBay the other day I think it was like 80 cents 80 you know with free shipping. Guess what? I own 100,000 of these.
