Yes but he didn't say it quite so concisely. It was more of a ramble. (actual quote) "We have two types of fans: we have paying customers, and uh, people that watch the games that we still care about, but, um, certainly the people that go to the games, and support, we-we-we spend a lot of time talking to them, delivering our message, uh...
