    I think about a world where I won't ever say or hear another word from my parents and it makes me cry everytime, we who still have our parents should always keep in mind how delicate they are, and hold the gravity of that special bond in our minds whenever we are with them, so we can withstand those disagreements which push us apart and instead revel in a love greater than our egos.

      Again its the idea of being lucky, and having parents who don't put their egos above everything, and themselves above the lives of their loved ones and family, and kids that they themselves brought into the world only to devolve into a narcissist and make it terrible for them. If you have good parents, please for gods sake spend the time you can with them, and try to work through this disagreements, either for your sake, theirs, or the people who don't have parents or have abusive ones.

    I love this so much, i can relate. when my pops got sick I moved back to Massachusetts and would drive my dad to tufts in Boston and spend time with him in the hospital and watch the rocky movie on repeat and watch the patriots play. He was terminally ill, but now he is kicking ass and doing better than ever!!! God is good!

    I just can’t imagine the closeness that the both of you are speaking to. It paints a picture that’s more than half missing in my own life. When I hear similar stories I’m struck that it seems old fashioned or from another time. I can’t imagine what I missed and is simply missing.

    Good, bad or indifferent .. .we are who we are because of our dads. I hope Matt realizes how lucky he was to have that time with his dad. That was a blessing.

    I loved watching the texas rangers with my dad. He could tell you their roster from when they came from kansas city to present date. He kept up with pitching rotation and pitching prospects. I really enjoyed our baseball talks. He remained sharp on the subject even when he was losing his memory on other subjects.

    Omg I remember that game..! The Rocket imploded in a balls and strikes argument with the umpire.. Brutal.
    So sorry about your pop. I spread my 37 yr old cousin (Ricky) in the outfield during a Fenway walking tour, during the off-season.
    Sprinkled him (just a bit) in front of the Monster.
    Matty, I'm sure some of your pop blew onto the field and I'm also sure your father and Ricky are having a blast whilst sitting on the mound, talking about Yankees Red Sox, while waiting for us.
    Bet your dads talking about the days his son and him, watched ballgames there.
    They'll be there watching us and our kids cheer on the sox and think of them.
    Damn.. I cant wait for next season.
    BTW, loved F v F. It was the best racing film I've ever seen.

    Sam Jones is such a good interviewer. He's just low key enough and let's them speak without interrupting them constantly.

    Why not run the whole interview and put extra ads on it instead of 5 min clips?

      Dino Radja You earn less that way, technically and financially speaking to optimize revenue

      This way he get more channel views. More views means more revenue. Also you can watch hour long interviews in his website, but you have to pay for that too. These 5 minute clips are just teasers.
      I would pay for his website subscription, because his style of interview and topics are great.

    Varitek really gives a thoughtful interview doesn't he?

    • @cantrip19

      Omg the first time I saw this interview series (had nothing to do with a Boston guest) I thought 'Wow he looks like Jason Varitek.' Also, say hello to your relative Derek and thank him for his contributions with Tek and the 2004 championship. Hehe, couldn't resist, the lame joke was just sitting there waiting to be said.

    • @danlowe

      @@cantrip19 Derek's not a relative and even if he was I'd probably still tell this story. Back around 2006 or so I was on a message board that discovered a swingers/singles website where MLB players and a handful of other pro athletes would post when they were going to be in a given city and what place they'd be staying so that women, escorts and otherwise, would shower them with photos and also exchange their own stories about hooking up with athletes. None of it was private (I mean it all was very private but not in an internet 'need a password' sense) and anyone could create an account, there were permiscuous photos with players and everyone would have been able to read what the others were up to and still talk to the same, um, interested parties. According to the stories told, D Lowe was one of the most prolific (don't know if he was married or not). We all created catfish accounts to have fun with them and it ended up dying down after that, but it was a pretty funny insight into the road life of a pro athlete, practically Roman in its shamelessness. So now you know this anecdote now too.

    I never had a good father and I feel stupid for saying that because maybe he'll hate me for thinking that and all he did was yell at me and he was always working and maybe I was just a bad kid and omg I'm so confused

      Not everyone gets as lucky as Matt did to have a good father. My advise to you is this. #1) don't blame yourself for your fathers mistakes. #2) Learn from it. When/if you have kids, be better than what you had.
