ESPN: The numbers all go to eleven. Look, right across the board, eleven, eleven, eleven and...

Marty DiBergi: Oh, I see. And most top 10 ranking lists go up to ten?

ESPN: Exactly.

Marty DiBergi: Does that mean it's better? Is it any better?

ESPN: Well, it's one better, isn't it? It's not ten. You see, most blokes, you know, will be ranking at ten. You're on ten here, all the way up, all the way up, all the way up, you're on ten on your ranking. Where can you go from there? Where?

Marty DiBergi: I don't know.

ESPN: Nowhere. Exactly. What we do is, if we need that extra push over the cliff, you know what we do?

Marty DiBergi: Put it up to eleven.

ESPN: Eleven. Exactly. One more SEC team

Marty DiBergi: Why don't you just make ten an SEC team and make ten be the top number and make that a little better?

ESPN: [pause] These go to eleven.
