  • There's no way there were like 330 million people in this country.

  • Is that a joke?

  • There's no way in the world that's true.

  • People misinterpret those numbers two different ways.

  • One of them is they'll say, Well, you know, that's really not a really good writing by Super Bowl standards.

  • What are you talking about?

  • That's a television show that drew 96 million viewers.

  • Have you seen the television universe lately?

  • If you've got anything that can draw numbers like that, you can't compare.

  • Like I always say this in sports, you can't compare people from one generation to another.

  • You compare them relative to the era in which they exist.

  • That's true of everything.

  • People are watching these things in alternative ways.

  • Any number of things are happening.

  • 96 million people.

  • Watching an event is an extraordinarily healthy number, so that's a but be more importantly, I don't buy it.

  • I'm going to say that if we were to measure the audience in people over the age of three months in this country, then the average audience would be something in the neighborhood of 80% of the people.

  • 80%.

  • 80% of the people.

  • Uh, Bubba Bubba.

  • I got him Bo over here.

  • But himbo is very.

  • He's very negative.

  • He he used to watch it.

  • He didn't watch it.

  • Why?

  • What did he give up?

  • What?

  • What?

  • What was he doing?

  • What did he do Sunday between six o'clock at 10 o'clock?

  • He just sat home and, uh, I don't know.

  • Just what does that mean?

  • Like that?

  • Only 96 million people watch this game.

  • I refuse to admit it.

  • I'm telling you right now, there's no way that I think we can find it.

  • I think we can find enough people.

  • All right, Baba, I'm gonna put together a committee, and I need you to chair this committee.

  • I gotta find 200 million.
