>> more context. most sites show you a photo of their face and i care a lot more about drive, intelligence ambition. >> reporter: but are these promises too limiting? associateologist and co-author of the wildly popular book "modern romance" says yes. >> one thing we discovered is that people filter way too much. in fact the things we think we're looking for in an ideal partner are rarely the things that we're actually interested in. >> reporter: just like with any dating site there are success stories. >> we've been on 12 dates i think. 10? >> yeah. 12. yeah around there. >> reporter: doug an entrepreneur and amanda both living and working in san francisco credit the league for pairing then up. >> the league's purpose is for busier professionals to have the opportunity to meet one another in a controlled setting, i think and actually go on meaningful dates. >> it's a community of people you might meet otherwise. >> reporter: when its creator questioned about the league's

exclusivity. >> we're trying to pull people from different walks of life and different industries. >> reporter: and the league site says because of their vetting you don't have to worry about fake profiles or privacy and while right now it's own will i in new york and san francisco the league is set to expand nationwide this year. >> the league. it sounds very fanty. >> yes. >> we'll cover the league. >> that's right. that's out of my league. i don't know about you. >> i'm with you. saying whatever happened to -- >> you took it. i like it. >> whatever happened to just going up to somebody at the bar and actually -- >> having a face-to-face conversation. >> imagine that. >> old school. >> people like you, dan harris. >> look -- >> your wife is -- >> i got a ring on it so there's no league for me. >> whoo. >> a little beyonce. anyway outside to ginger. more on the weather. >> the smiling faces out here in new york city. what a beautiful morning. post storms for us but chicago is a place that is getting ready for more storms.

[ cheers and applause ] it took him years to win this title. congratulations. >> thank you. >> all settling in. had the parade and all that. >> um, it's been a long week. it seems like it was two months

ago. i know i was talking to dwyane wade right after the game and he's like just enjoy the moment so each day when i'm brushing my teeth i'm looking in the muir enand say how you doing, champ. >> you should because you never know when it's going to come again? right. >> and the kind of team that everyone pulls for and your organization and the mvp of the regular season steph curry but let me ask you this a lot of people have been talking about the fact that you didn't start every game in the times and yet you go on to be the mvp. did you give your coach a little hard time about, hey, why am i not in the starting lineup? >> the coach and i have a good relationship because we understand each other because we're both from arizona so that's -- that kept me from strangling him a few times throughout the season. it was an amazing ride. i understood his vision and what he was trying to do and the perfect team where everyone would buy in. it wasn't a frustrating to really want that for the team to

have that success and happening for us it's been amazing. >> worked out really well sow you and steph and the espys, the golden state warriors will be up for team of the year. that's got to be a great feeling. >> yes just thinking about that there's really good teams but just to be mentioned among those teams, we put together something special and hopefully we win. if we don't just an honor to be named amongst everybody nominated. >> now you sound like one of those -- it's an honor to be nominated. yes and steph curry is going to be nominated for male athlete of the year. what's it like being on the court with him? >> with steph it's more of the person he is and people think i'm joking when i say i wt to be like steph when i grow up. even though i'm older than him. just a tremendous human being, has a great heart. a true believer in christ and when you're playing with a person like that when you show up to play every day it's easy

to play hard because that's our leader and the guy we look up to. >> coach kerr will be nominate the for coach of the year. how does he inspire you? >> coach kerr got lucky, inherited a great team. >> oh. now you see -- i knew that was going to come out. >> no you know what he did. he did an amazing job of letting us be who we are and letting us play to our strengths. what he did was just -- he took a look at the things we can improve upon and what people thought was our weaknesses and he turned that into a strength which was the movement of the ball and every day he keyed in on ballhandling and passing and footwork and pivots and those things paid off because our turnovers were way down towards the end of the year and that's what got us to the championship. >> you caused some turnovers when you were guarding a certain player. we won't go there but congratulations. >> thank you. >> i know that you're very happy to have that mvp trophy but also happy to have a trophy that your son andre gave you for father's

day and drew it in art class, the championship trophy and he knew back in april that this was going to happen. >> that was amazing. he's a special kid. like i said before i don't know where he gets the heart from. he doesn't get it from me and he has one and we have a great relationship if that's a great photo right there. hey, andre, thank you very much. good luck with the espys. i'll see you out there in l.a. >> i'll see you there. >> okay and all of the espy nominations are up right now on goodmorningamerica.com on yahoo! and you can vote for your favorites at espn.com. the espys air live july 15th, 8:00 p.m. eastern right here on abc. thanks again, andre. >> andre, andre, andre. come on. congratulations, andre. i'm just going to read the copy here because -- >> go for it. >> a cheeky new trend in underwear is out there. granny panty, yeah i said it. they're making a big comeback
