Not trying to belittle your opinion, Reap', or the opinions of others who took it the same way, BUT: I can honestly say I never took the comment to be the least bit derogatory or to be "just shutting JM up." Maybe it's the fact that I'm closer to the same age as the DT guys and am married with kids. When I was younger, I always said things along the lines of, "there's no way I'm going to let family interfere with X because X is just too important." But you find as you get older that priorities actually change, and you recognize that the changing of priorities is actually a good thing that you just don't understand when you are younger and are not yet faced with that. When I heard the MP/JM exchange for the first time, I immediately identified with what Mike said and found myself also saying, "Yeah, dude. You guys aren't 18-year-old singles anymore. You can't possibly think it's realistic to want to go back and do things the way you did back then." Some may find this funny or ironic, but I think it was actually Mike being the most mature and realistic in that discussion.
