00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:19,760
Speaker 1: His name is spelled like Ricky Schroeder. Remember the actor

179
00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:23,440
Speaker 1: Ricky Schroeder. I don't know where the fun Ricky Schroeder is. Um,

180
00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:25,880
Speaker 1: Ricky Schroeder who you know from the movie The Champ.

181
00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:29,200
Speaker 1: He was also on that other show with Jason Bateman,

182
00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:32,320
Speaker 1: I can't remember. He had the blonde hair, the blue eyes.

183
00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:36,959
Speaker 1: He was in Champ with John Voy Champ, Wake Up Champ. Um.

184
00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:41,959
Speaker 1: He sent me a collection of this pipe bomber who

185
00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:45,360
Speaker 1: and and Shane Schroeder is now pushing for him, the

186
00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:47,800
Speaker 1: pipe bomber, I can't remember his name. Who gives a fuck?

187
00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:52,040
Speaker 1: You ain't getting out of jail, homie, But he sent

188
00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:55,800
Speaker 1: me a collection of pictures of this pipe bomber. Uh,

189
00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:59,120
Speaker 1: and Shane Schroeder is suggesting that this could possibly be

190
00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:03,240
Speaker 1: the sick fun of the decade. This dumb, sick fuck

191
00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:08,720
Speaker 1: um has a collection of head shots where he was

192
00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:12,559
Speaker 1: losing his hair, then he got some sort of glue

193
00:12:12,559 --> 00:12:16,640
Speaker 1: on hairpiece, and then he was losing the glue on hairpiece,

194
00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:19,840
Speaker 1: and then he got some like I don't know kind

195
00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:23,440
Speaker 1: of what the funk he did shoot polished plugs, and

196
00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:26,920
Speaker 1: then he got a pony tail whatever. He's got a

197
00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:32,280
Speaker 1: decade of of mug shots with all different phases of balding. Um,

198
00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:35,600
Speaker 1: this prick just showed up in in in court. You're

199
00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:39,280
Speaker 1: never getting out of prison. You sent you sent bombs

200
00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:42,959
Speaker 1: to ex president's ex vice president and to Bob de Nero.

201
00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:48,120
Speaker 1: You sick fuck you. This guy was a stripper, a

202
00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:55,439
Speaker 1: male stripper who was hopped up on steroids and hair

203
00:12:55,559 --> 00:13:01,760
Speaker 1: care and hair plugs. You're a male stripper with a

204
00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:04,880
Speaker 1: plug job. And if you look at this guy's face,

205
00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:08,720
Speaker 1: the pipe bomber, I don't know who gassed him up

206
00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:11,520
Speaker 1: and told him he looked good because you don't look

207
00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:16,720
Speaker 1: good money. You don't look dope. Um, I don't. I'm

208
00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:19,520
Speaker 1: sure you weren't making good money as a stripper because

209
00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:22,000
Speaker 1: nobody wanted to see you unfold the loaf. You look

210
00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:25,280
Speaker 1: like a sick fuck um. And he had his van.

211
00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:28,679
Speaker 1: Everybody saw the pictures of his van, uh and all

212
00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:31,720
Speaker 1: that stuff. Unfortunately caught this prick and and none of

213
00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:35,200
Speaker 1: his bombs worked off. Imagine you see this freak in

214
00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:39,040
Speaker 1: the what's the name of the hardware store? Uh, the

215
00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:41,080
Speaker 1: big hardware store. He was in one of those big

216
00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:43,720
Speaker 1: hardware stores, the you know, the famous one, the chain,

217
00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:47,320
Speaker 1: the big famous ones. Whatever. The fun listen stereo pockets.

218
00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:50,839
Speaker 1: We don't fact check, but you see this hopped up

219
00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:55,080
Speaker 1: steroid freak with a bad plug job walking around, coming

220
00:13:55,120 --> 00:13:57,160
Speaker 1: in there, in and out, in and out. He's in

221
00:13:57,200 --> 00:14:00,720
Speaker 1: the plumbing and piping sections. They they knew he was

222
00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:03,960
Speaker 1: a sick fuck. They had their eyes on him. Uh,

223
00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:06,839
Speaker 1: and he should have disguised and got himself a wig

224
00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:11,160
Speaker 1: did something. I'm glad they arrested this asshole and fortunately

225
00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:14,240
Speaker 1: none of his bombs went off. UM. But the crazy,

226
00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:17,600
Speaker 1: crazy thing about the last week is that the pipe

227
00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:25,160
Speaker 1: bomber and the attempted blowing up of President Obama, Joey Biden,

228
00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:30,760
Speaker 1: Hillary Clinton, to name a few, plus Bob de Nero

229
00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:38,600
Speaker 1: has been completely overshadowed by the heart breaking massacre that

230
00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:43,760
Speaker 1: took place UM a few days ago Saturday in Pittsburgh

231
00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:51,640
Speaker 1: in the morning, in a synagogue in a temple where

232
00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:54,400
Speaker 1: people were attending a brisk. If you don't know what

233
00:14:54,440 --> 00:15:00,280
Speaker 1: a briss is, it's a circumcision. And this used to

234
00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:05,680
Speaker 1: ship came in there and Uh, everybody has heard what happened.

235
00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:10,960
Speaker 1: It was just devastating to hear about. UM. All the

236
00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:18,000
Speaker 1: victims that died were elderly. Four policemen were also shot.

237
00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:22,560
Speaker 1: And um, you know, at something that's supposed to be

238
00:15:22,640 --> 00:15:30,880
Speaker 1: so special and memorable and exciting, and you know, just

239
00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:35,760
Speaker 1: you know that you never would expect something like this

240
00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:39,160
Speaker 1: to happen. It happened that the Tree of Life Synagogue

241
00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:44,160
Speaker 1: and in Pittsburgh. UM, I don't know. It was so

242
00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:51,040
Speaker 1: hard to to sort of uh digest what happened. They

243
00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:53,600
Speaker 1: caught the guy or I don't know if he turned

244
00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:55,800
Speaker 1: himself in or he got shot. I don't know this guy,

245
00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:59,920
Speaker 1: Robert Bowers, who showed up in court in a wheelchair,

246
00:16:00,520 --> 00:16:02,600
Speaker 1: and I don't know why he didn't show up in

247
00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:07,000
Speaker 1: court in worse than a wheelchair. UM. I would have

248
00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:10,200
Speaker 1: liked to see him show up with his head kicked in. Alive,

249
00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:13,200
Speaker 1: but with his head kicked in, maybe a missing an

250
00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:18,480
Speaker 1: eye or something like that. But you know, there's nothing

251
00:16:18,520 --> 00:16:24,800
Speaker 1: really to go on and say, uh, because it's just devastating, heartbreaking,

252
00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:26,760
Speaker 1: and you know, I don't want to go into the

253
00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:30,920
Speaker 1: politics of it all. Um, But Dick Stain, Donald Trump,

254
00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:36,640
Speaker 1: you know, he said, uh this a few hours after

255
00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:44,840
Speaker 1: the incident, miles play that play that little clip. Well again, Uh,

256
00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:47,800
Speaker 1: this has little to do with it. If you take

257
00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:51,560
Speaker 1: a look if they had protection inside, the results would

258
00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:54,480
Speaker 1: have been far better. This is a dispute that will

259
00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:57,840
Speaker 1: always exist. I suspect I don't know why he couldn't

260
00:16:57,880 --> 00:17:01,600
Speaker 1: just say something like listen, now is not the time

261
00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:03,680
Speaker 1: to talk policy. Now is not the time to talk

262
00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:08,399
Speaker 1: politics or gun control. That's a conversation that that needs

263
00:17:08,440 --> 00:17:11,960
Speaker 1: to and will take place later. Right now is the

264
00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:17,280
Speaker 1: time two send our condolences, send our prayers and our

265
00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:21,320
Speaker 1: thoughts to the victims, families and loved ones. He he

266
00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:26,080
Speaker 1: he couldn't say that, He couldn't just simply say that

267
00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:31,360
Speaker 1: even I, who's somebody, who's who's I know, I'm not articulate,

268
00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:36,840
Speaker 1: even I would know to say something like that, simple clean.

269
00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:42,200
Speaker 1: This piece of ship starts blaming what were four police

270
00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:45,400
Speaker 1: officers were also shot? And he's saying why didn't they

271
00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:50,520
Speaker 1: protect themselves if they had had protection and guards? So

272
00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:54,720
Speaker 1: you think this is like black Hawk down, It's like apocalypse.

273
00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:56,960
Speaker 1: Now there's gonna be a shootout in a synagogue and

274
00:17:57,000 --> 00:18:00,040
Speaker 1: like an armed guard out there with a handgun is

275
00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:05,320
Speaker 1: gonna be able to defend himself and he's shooting. The

276
00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:10,760
Speaker 1: whole thing is just just devastatingly heartbreaking. Um, but the shooter,

277
00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:15,600
Speaker 1: the killer UM showed up in a wheelchair. I don't

278
00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:18,080
Speaker 1: think they had any pictures. I believe the the the

279
00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:20,600
Speaker 1: mug shot they had of him, he didn't have any bruises.

280
00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:25,960
Speaker 1: But I saw a guy in Argentina who I think

281
00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:31,360
Speaker 1: should be Father of the year. A man in Argentina

282
00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:37,120
Speaker 1: who whose teacher he has a daughter. The daughter's teacher

283
00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:42,480
Speaker 1: was accused of a sexually assaulting this man's daughter. UM

284
00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:47,600
Speaker 1: and and the news UM in Argentina caught this guy

285
00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:52,040
Speaker 1: on camera beating the ship out of the teacher. UM.

286
00:18:52,080 --> 00:18:55,000
Speaker 1: If you look this guy up, UM, he had looked

287
00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:57,720
Speaker 1: like he just fought fifteen rounds with Roberto Duran and

288
00:18:57,800 --> 00:19:02,760
Speaker 1: his prime busted. I busted lip. The guy, Uh, the teacher,

289
00:19:02,920 --> 00:19:08,520
Speaker 1: Jorgey Cruceno sick funck that he is. Um. He survived

290
00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:13,439
Speaker 1: the attack. But the father through twenty two punches in

291
00:19:13,520 --> 00:19:18,680
Speaker 1: fifteen seconds. This is the father of the year. And

292
00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:20,480
Speaker 1: and you know people were saying, oh, you shouldn't do

293
00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:22,840
Speaker 1: that violence. Is it necessary? This is how you would

294
00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:29,600
Speaker 1: imagine in hope to act. The teacher sexually assaults your

295
00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:33,520
Speaker 1: fifteen year old daughter. You see the teacher, you beat

296
00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:37,000
Speaker 1: the ship at him. Twenty two punches in fifteen seconds.

297
00:19:37,040 --> 00:19:41,879
Speaker 1: That's like Floyd Mayweather, Sugar Ray Leonard hand speed. Guy's

298
00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:47,360
Speaker 1: face is all fucked up, busted, lip busted. I looks

299
00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:51,000
Speaker 1: like Rocky in the fifteenth round, Rocky one and Rocky

300
00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:54,240
Speaker 1: seventy seven. You know, of course they they they four

301
00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:58,159
Speaker 1: fifteen rounds when he first fought creed Um. They no

302
00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:01,000
Speaker 1: longer fight fifteen rounds. They fight twelve. He looked like

303
00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:04,040
Speaker 1: Rocky at the end of the fourteenth round when he

304
00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:06,960
Speaker 1: said to Rocky, uh, and I quote cut me, Mick

Speaker 1: needed to get his eye cut opened by Mickey Burgess

309
00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:22,000
Speaker 1: Meredith Um. And that's the way he should look after

310
00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:26,240
Speaker 1: assaulting sexual assaulting his fifteen year old student and this

313
00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:43,639
Speaker 1: a lighter, lighter, lighter, lighter note the Cleveland sports teams

314
00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:47,000
Speaker 1: in Cleveland, the city got a two for Cleveland two

315
00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:54,000
Speaker 1: steps in the last forty eight hours. They fired Cleveland

316
00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:58,200
Speaker 1: coach Cleveland Cavaliers coach tylu We all saw that coming.

317
00:20:58,320 --> 00:21:01,800
Speaker 1: I've been on time, lose at. I don't know why

318
00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:08,639
Speaker 1: you didn't just step away after last season, Tyler. You

319
00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:13,520
Speaker 1: should have packed your fucking big suits and left. You

320
00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:17,679
Speaker 1: won a championship after taking over the job. Let's not

321
00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:22,840
Speaker 1: forget Tyler was given the job when the Cleveland Cavaliers

322
00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:27,840
Speaker 1: had the best record in the NBA. They fired David

323
00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:34,399
Speaker 1: Blatt in the darkness of night. Remember that. And that

324
00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:42,320
Speaker 1: same year, this was two thousand sixteen, Yes, two thousand

325
00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:45,959
Speaker 1: and sixteen, they went on to beat This is when uh,

326
00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:48,359
Speaker 1: Draymond this is three one. This is when the Golden

327
00:21:48,359 --> 00:21:51,159
Speaker 1: State Warriors were were up three one when Draymond Green

328
00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:54,359
Speaker 1: got suspended for the phantom dick kick on Lebron James

329
00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:59,120
Speaker 1: and the Golden State Warriors lost to the Cleveland Cavaliers

330
00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:05,119
Speaker 1: in seven games. Lebron James blocked Andrea Goodallas shot his layup.

331
00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:09,199
Speaker 1: Um you know the rest, and Tyler was crying on

332
00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:11,040
Speaker 1: the bench and I'm just a kid and all all.

333
00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:12,919
Speaker 1: He won the championship. Then the next year, we know

334
00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:15,400
Speaker 1: what happened to rant Steph Curry. They beat their ass.

335
00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:19,359
Speaker 1: Uh in five games, and then in four games. And

336
00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:21,840
Speaker 1: when Lebron left, you should have you should have just

337
00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:25,040
Speaker 1: packed your fucking bags, Tyler. Last year they almost put

338
00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:28,520
Speaker 1: you in a mental institution. Remember that he had to

339
00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:30,399
Speaker 1: take a break because he was so stressed out of

340
00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:33,159
Speaker 1: his mind. And I'm not making light of that. But

341
00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:38,840
Speaker 1: you knew ship wasn't gonna be sweet, Tyler. You knew

342
00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:40,680
Speaker 1: it wasn't gonna be sweet. Why what did you want

343
00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:43,280
Speaker 1: to prove? Like, Oh, I can do it without Brownie. No,

344
00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:46,880
Speaker 1: you fucking can't. You got j R. Smith somehow or another.

345
00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:50,920
Speaker 1: You didn't trade that fucking guy away. You got Rodney Hood,

346
00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:55,240
Speaker 1: You got fucking Larry Nance Jr. You got my man,

347
00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:57,760
Speaker 1: Kevin Love, and a bunch of other guys that would

348
00:22:57,800 --> 00:23:01,200
Speaker 1: put them put their flunky's funky's. You got a bunch

349
00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:03,480
Speaker 1: of other funky's. The only person on that team was

350
00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:09,320
Speaker 1: not a flunky is Kevin Love. They started the season

351
00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:12,320
Speaker 1: oh in six, and I loved every single minute of it.

352
00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:16,760
Speaker 1: I was so happy. I've been reporting each game on Twitter.

353
00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:20,200
Speaker 1: Cleveland Cavaliers are in four, Cleveland Cavaliers are oh in five,

354
00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:24,840
Speaker 1: Cleveland Cavaliers are in six. I loved it. And they

355
00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:28,159
Speaker 1: fired Tyler. Why did you fire Tyler when they're oh

356
00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:32,840
Speaker 1: in six Tyler? Why did you not quit when the

357
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:37,159
Speaker 1: chips were stacked up in your favor? You should have

358
00:23:37,280 --> 00:23:41,320
Speaker 1: got the fuck out of there while you were ahead,

359
00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:43,480
Speaker 1: and you didn't do it. I don't know what they

360
00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:46,679
Speaker 1: expect to happen. Larry Drew, who used to be a

361
00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:51,400
Speaker 1: really good player back in the days, days, I don't

362
00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:56,280
Speaker 1: say back in the day days wasn't one day, bunch

363
00:23:56,320 --> 00:24:00,359
Speaker 1: of days. It's taken over as the interm coach. Yeah,

364
00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:04,359
Speaker 1: who cares? Who cares? I just don't get why the

365
00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:07,040
Speaker 1: funk Tiler didn't just get the funk out of there.

366
00:24:08,520 --> 00:24:12,000
Speaker 1: You had a good thing. Now you gotta fucking you

367
00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:15,960
Speaker 1: gotta like box all your ship up and leave Cleveland.

368
00:24:16,560 --> 00:24:20,360
Speaker 1: And then I think less than twenty four no less

369
00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:25,120
Speaker 1: than forty eight hours. The Cleveland Browns, who, if you remember,

370
00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:31,399
Speaker 1: were the focal point the feature team on HBO's Hard Knocks.

371
00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:34,080
Speaker 1: I'm a big fan. I've watched it every season. I

372
00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:35,760
Speaker 1: think that show has been on the air now twenty

373
00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:41,240
Speaker 1: years something like that. Fifteen seasons. Um, they were all

374
00:24:41,440 --> 00:24:44,880
Speaker 1: gacked up and hyped up. They had Josh Gordon stuff,

375
00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:48,560
Speaker 1: and they got the fat offensive lineman coach, and things

376
00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:54,560
Speaker 1: were all cute on HBO and Hugh Jackson were changing

377
00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:57,440
Speaker 1: our ways here. And he even made the players. He

378
00:24:57,480 --> 00:25:01,440
Speaker 1: even remembered his ship. He even the players on the

379
00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:07,840
Speaker 1: team during training camp. During preseason, they had to play

380
00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:10,919
Speaker 1: for the right to get the brown stripe on their helmet,

381
00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:16,680
Speaker 1: as if that's dope, as if that is something to

382
00:25:16,840 --> 00:25:19,840
Speaker 1: play for us, that and the like, that's the fucking shield, Like, oh,

383
00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:23,480
Speaker 1: that's the the Dallas Cowboys star the Pittsburgh Steelers thing.

384
00:25:25,680 --> 00:25:30,200
Speaker 1: Nobody's excited about being in Cleveland. So the Cleveland Browns

385
00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:38,040
Speaker 1: fired Hugh Jackson. Okay, you thought fucking Baker Mayfield was

386
00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:41,480
Speaker 1: gonna cut it. You thought that Jarvis Landry was gonna

387
00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:47,439
Speaker 1: cut it. Didn't cut it. You got fired and you

388
00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:50,880
Speaker 1: went on hard knocksually jumped in the rivers. You're fucking fans.

389
00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:54,720
Speaker 1: Your fans celebrated. They did a parade last year. I

390
00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:59,160
Speaker 1: don't care what they say. I don't care what they say.

391
00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:01,400
Speaker 1: They did a fucking parade last year when they were

392
00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:08,320
Speaker 1: oh in sixteen, two years ago, these Fox oh in sixteen,

393
00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:15,200
Speaker 1: Hugh Jackson's first season, they won one fucking game one

394
00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:23,159
Speaker 1: in fifteen two thousand seventeen, oh and six team. As

395
00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:27,320
Speaker 1: far as I'm concerned, Hugh Jackson should have gotten fired

396
00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:30,520
Speaker 1: after being oh in sixteen when you're let me do

397
00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:35,400
Speaker 1: let me do the math, when you're one and thirty one,

398
00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:39,320
Speaker 1: one and thirty one, you should be fired. If they

399
00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:43,480
Speaker 1: bring Hugh Jackson back for this season two thousand eighteen,

400
00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:47,399
Speaker 1: they should have just given him a lifetime contract, because

401
00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:50,359
Speaker 1: of course he thinks shit is sweet, Shit is sweet.

402
00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:55,240
Speaker 1: You didn't win one fucking game. You're bringing Baker Mayfield

403
00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:58,719
Speaker 1: and Jarvis Landrn. You think that's gonna fix it? I

404
00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:02,640
Speaker 1: guarantee you. Hugh jack Sit and Thai fucking Looke are

405
00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:07,840
Speaker 1: on a plane right now with Bizarro stand Van Gundhi

406
00:27:08,119 --> 00:27:12,920
Speaker 1: to Thailand to get it all the way in. Tyler

407
00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:16,280
Speaker 1: and you Jackson are on their fucking way to Thailand

408
00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:20,280
Speaker 1: to freak off like they've never freaked off in their life,

409
00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:26,119
Speaker 1: and Stan Van Gundhi will be sitting there watching and

410
00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:30,639
Speaker 1: enjoying the whole fucking thing. You think that Hugh Jackson

411
00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:37,119
Speaker 1: or Tyler will ever go back to Cleveland? What did

412
00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:40,720
Speaker 1: they expect? Of course, the Cleveland Cavaliers are gonna be

413
00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:44,640
Speaker 1: oh in fucking six. They don't have any players. At least.

414
00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:47,919
Speaker 1: The Cleveland Browns had one tie this year. They just

415
00:27:48,040 --> 00:27:50,400
Speaker 1: lost to the Pittsburgh Steelers. But of course they're gonna

416
00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:52,960
Speaker 1: lose to the fucking Pittsburgh Steelers. They supposed to lose

417
00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:56,120
Speaker 1: to the Pittsburgh Steels. You have a coach who's one

418
00:27:57,600 --> 00:28:01,720
Speaker 1: and thirty one two seasons ago. One in thirty fucking one,

419
00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:05,920
Speaker 1: I mean, he won one game and lost thirty one.

420
00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:10,520
Speaker 1: These fuckers were celebrating a tie early this year. It's Cleveland.

421
00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:14,439
Speaker 1: Tyler will never go back to Cleveland. He'll probably go

422
00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:17,119
Speaker 1: back to Cleveland in twenty years when they have the

423
00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:21,159
Speaker 1: annual h the twenty year reunion of the team that

424
00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:27,160
Speaker 1: won the championship. He'll be sixty five pounds overweight, guaranteed.

425
00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:29,919
Speaker 1: He's already put on so much weight he looks like

426
00:28:30,040 --> 00:28:32,600
Speaker 1: ship since he's taking Remember Tyler, when he first took

427
00:28:32,600 --> 00:28:35,159
Speaker 1: over the job as the Cleveland Cavaliers coach, he was

428
00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:39,040
Speaker 1: lean and mean. Fucking guy had to take a two

429
00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:42,280
Speaker 1: week vacation last year during the five during the season.

430
00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:45,400
Speaker 1: That job was stressing him out, but you wanted to

431
00:28:45,400 --> 00:28:48,680
Speaker 1: come back for more and how you got fired, Hugh Jackson.

432
00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:50,920
Speaker 1: I don't know what the fun kind of agent or

Speaker 1: Thailu live and whatever. I don't give a shit. I

439
00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:16,520
Speaker 1: don't give a ship. I don't like anything that has

440
00:29:16,520 --> 00:29:18,640
Speaker 1: to do with Cleveland sports. I don't like anything that

441
00:29:18,640 --> 00:29:20,880
Speaker 1: has to do with Boston sports. It's not the same thing.

442
00:29:21,280 --> 00:29:24,600
Speaker 1: I just like the stuff at the Cleveland. But they're

443
00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:28,520
Speaker 1: used to this. This is their comfort zone. Being miserable, losing,

444
00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:32,280
Speaker 1: getting rid of coaches halfway through the NFL season, getting

445
00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:36,240
Speaker 1: rid of coaches six games into the NBA season. This

446
00:29:36,280 --> 00:29:40,440
Speaker 1: is their happy place. This is where they feel most comfortable.

447
00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:46,120
Speaker 1: As I told you later on in the this year,

448
00:29:46,120 --> 00:29:51,120
Speaker 1: I am rep reports stereo podcast. I uh we got

449
00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:53,560
Speaker 1: Nick Nick de Turo. I'm gonna get him on the phone,

450
00:29:54,520 --> 00:29:58,520
Speaker 1: talk to him about his uh terrible prediction of the

451
00:29:58,560 --> 00:30:01,160
Speaker 1: Boston Red Side say, and gonna ask him point blank

452
00:30:01,440 --> 00:30:05,240
Speaker 1: because you know, I still I don't know much about

453
00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:09,719
Speaker 1: the Boston Red Sox who just won the World Series. Um,

454
00:30:09,760 --> 00:30:13,560
Speaker 1: but I watched more of it. But my one of

455
00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:15,760
Speaker 1: my questions for Nick de Tourrow and I'm just gonna

456
00:30:15,760 --> 00:30:19,040
Speaker 1: be straight up, and this is not politically correct, but theoretically,

457
00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:23,720

459
00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:28,960
Speaker 1: way like in a in an act of aggression. Theoretically

460
00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:31,000
Speaker 1: this is just theoretical. I want to know which one

461
00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:35,479
Speaker 1: he would suggest I bang in the ass, because I

462
00:30:35,480 --> 00:30:39,400
Speaker 1: had that picture Kimbrell, who stands there like and he's like,

463
00:30:39,680 --> 00:30:41,440
Speaker 1: I bet just some coach when he was younger, say

464
00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:43,560
Speaker 1: oh you scare him. You stand there? He stands there

465
00:30:43,600 --> 00:30:45,480
Speaker 1: like like it. Dore's like like some kind of monkey

467
00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:53,800
Speaker 1: he's on my hit list. And then I can't remember

468
00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:57,680
Speaker 1: the guy's name, Duke John Jack. I don't know Duke Pierce,

469
00:30:59,120 --> 00:31:02,200
Speaker 1: who was Oh he's your big dream of always playing

470
00:31:02,240 --> 00:31:05,000
Speaker 1: for the Red Sox. I feel like he's the guy

471
00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:08,360
Speaker 1: that if theoretically I was gonna bang in the assid

472
00:31:08,360 --> 00:31:10,600
Speaker 1: an act of aggression. He would be the guy. But

473
00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:13,880
Speaker 1: I want to ask Nick Deturrow his suggestion. I can't

474
00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:21,560
Speaker 1: stand those Fox I can't stand their fans. I don't

475

480
00:31:46,520 --> 00:31:50,000
Speaker 1: five Super Bowls and now four World Series. I like

481
00:31:50,080 --> 00:31:54,520
Speaker 1: that when they had nothing. They they had nothing for

482
00:31:54,600 --> 00:32:00,760
Speaker 1: so long that the NBA titles Stanley Cups miserable, miserable.

485
00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:10,760
Speaker 1: fans think they're so fucking cool. My question, I'll ask

486
00:32:10,800 --> 00:32:14,480
Speaker 1: Bill Burr if if you were going to suggest me

487
00:32:14,640 --> 00:32:19,120
Speaker 1: fucking one Boston red sock in the seat, who would

488
00:32:19,160 --> 00:32:22,280
Speaker 1: it be? Bill Burr? I I gotta track him down

489
00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:25,120
Speaker 1: and ask him, because I have to say me and

490
00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:28,280
Speaker 1: Nick de Turro were biased, but Bill Burr would be

491
00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:32,240
Speaker 1: able to give me a straight answer on who he

492
00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:36,000
Speaker 1: would suggest which one I would have my way with?

493
00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:41,960
Speaker 1: Is that weird? This is not real. This is theoretically

494
00:32:42,320 --> 00:32:44,400
Speaker 1: it's not it's not it's not reality. I'm just saying, like,

495
00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:47,000
Speaker 1: if if I was gonna give a Boston red Sock

496
00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:49,960
Speaker 1: the wonderbread bag and olive oil treatment, does that make sense?

497
00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:52,520
Speaker 1: That makes sense to the fans of this podcast? Which

498
00:32:52,560 --> 00:32:56,880
Speaker 1: one would it be? That one? Guy Pierce's Oh, it's

499
00:32:56,920 --> 00:32:59,240
Speaker 1: a lifelong dream to play for a Red Sox and

500
00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:07,040
Speaker 1: fuck you, fuck you. I had to go, uh to

501
00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:09,800
Speaker 1: Beverly Hills, deep deep, deep in the heart of Beverly

502
00:33:09,880 --> 00:33:13,680
Speaker 1: Hills because sometimes, you know, Beverly Hills, amongst other things,

503
00:33:13,760 --> 00:33:17,760
Speaker 1: is a shopping area. They got all the stores, I mean,

504
00:33:17,800 --> 00:33:20,600
Speaker 1: all the fancy ones, any any kind of brand name

505
00:33:20,720 --> 00:33:26,239
Speaker 1: store with Levi's uh, you know, sneakers. Of course, they

506
00:33:26,280 --> 00:33:30,840
Speaker 1: got all the Gucci the product. Um. I needed a bag.

507
00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:33,400
Speaker 1: So I've had this, the same carry on bag for

508
00:33:33,480 --> 00:33:38,120
Speaker 1: like i'd say, ship close to twelve years, my carry

509
00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:44,040
Speaker 1: on bag with my little you know, sidebag thing, and uh,

510
00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:49,120
Speaker 1: it broke my last trip finally broke. Um. So I

511
00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:51,440
Speaker 1: went back to the place that I bought it and

512
00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:53,320
Speaker 1: they don't have the bag, and then they have these

513
00:33:53,320 --> 00:33:56,080
Speaker 1: other bags and smaller bags whatever. But I'm very particular

514
00:33:56,120 --> 00:33:58,360
Speaker 1: because when you when you travel, you need you know,

515
00:33:58,400 --> 00:34:00,160
Speaker 1: you could take it for granted. But I'm the type

516
00:34:00,200 --> 00:34:02,320
Speaker 1: of person, especially when I get in the groove of

517
00:34:02,360 --> 00:34:04,720
Speaker 1: traveling a lot, I like, I like the bag to

518
00:34:05,080 --> 00:34:07,640
Speaker 1: be able to fit everything I want. But it's not

519
00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:10,240
Speaker 1: just the clothes. It's it's like the little side compartments

520
00:34:10,239 --> 00:34:11,640
Speaker 1: you want the bag to fit, you know, with my

521
00:34:11,719 --> 00:34:16,239
Speaker 1: chargers and plugs right, and then I have my my

522
00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:22,480
Speaker 1: uh my personal uh odor uh my sanitary sprays. So

523
00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:25,239
Speaker 1: for the people around me, this is no bullshit. I

524
00:34:25,320 --> 00:34:27,359
Speaker 1: keep my little mini thing of Lye soul and my

525
00:34:27,480 --> 00:34:30,560
Speaker 1: mini thing of the air freshener. I have my gum,

526
00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:34,600
Speaker 1: I have my nail clipper, my nail filer, my lips stuff.

527
00:34:34,800 --> 00:34:38,200
Speaker 1: And then and then I keep band aids, uh because

528
00:34:38,239 --> 00:34:40,360
Speaker 1: you never know what the fund had happened on a plane,

529
00:34:40,360 --> 00:34:42,279
Speaker 1: you might stub your toe, you need a band aid.

530
00:34:42,600 --> 00:34:45,640
Speaker 1: I got my wipes to wipe my hands. This is

531
00:34:45,760 --> 00:34:48,279
Speaker 1: just just just me. Some people say, oh, you're in

532
00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:50,640
Speaker 1: the ronic, You're crazy. That's me. I like to travel

533
00:34:50,680 --> 00:34:52,520
Speaker 1: with certain things in case things go roll or if

534
00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:55,920
Speaker 1: you're on the fucking tarmac delayed. And I like to

535
00:34:55,960 --> 00:34:57,920
Speaker 1: be able to fit at all in the compartments in

536
00:34:58,000 --> 00:34:59,680
Speaker 1: the bag. And I had this bag for a long

537
00:34:59,719 --> 00:35:02,560
Speaker 1: time and I would just keep my little, my little

538
00:35:02,600 --> 00:35:06,279
Speaker 1: travel uh stuff in the bag. Well, the changes come,

539
00:35:06,960 --> 00:35:08,440
Speaker 1: so I had to go replace the bag. So I

540
00:35:08,440 --> 00:35:11,040
Speaker 1: went back to the original bag place. They didn't have it.

541
00:35:11,680 --> 00:35:14,360
Speaker 1: I was in there literally dealing with a very sweet,

542
00:35:14,480 --> 00:35:19,719
Speaker 1: very very helpful, very earnest um but older woman. She

543
00:35:19,880 --> 00:35:22,719
Speaker 1: was got to be eighty years old. She could have

544
00:35:22,760 --> 00:35:25,440
Speaker 1: been eighty five like my father. I don't know if

545
00:35:25,440 --> 00:35:27,560
Speaker 1: she owned the joint or what other She was helping

546
00:35:27,560 --> 00:35:29,560
Speaker 1: me out, and I said, you're so sweet, you're so helpful.

547
00:35:29,600 --> 00:35:31,920
Speaker 1: She was, you know, Oh, I get it. I'm like,

548
00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:34,000
Speaker 1: you're gonna fucking kill over. I mean, she must have

549
00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:36,680
Speaker 1: weighed a hundred and five pounds. I wind up getting

550
00:35:36,680 --> 00:35:39,720
Speaker 1: a bag there, but I feel like I had buyer's remorse,

551
00:35:39,840 --> 00:35:41,399
Speaker 1: or I might have bought it out of guilt because

552
00:35:41,400 --> 00:35:43,960
Speaker 1: she was so fucking old. I didn't like the bag.

553
00:35:44,040 --> 00:35:48,399
Speaker 1: So today I went bag shopping in Beverly Hills, um

554
00:35:48,600 --> 00:35:51,360
Speaker 1: to get another bag. Before I returned the other bag. Whatever.

555

Speaker 1: spend a couple of hundred dollars. It's not fucking you know,

565
00:36:17,560 --> 00:36:19,880
Speaker 1: it's important if it's reasonable in the bag works, and

00:37:02,440 --> 00:37:06,040
Speaker 1: leather and okay, well how much is it? This is

581
00:37:06,080 --> 00:37:10,320
Speaker 1: a real story. This motherfucker told me fifty thousand dollars

582
00:37:10,320 --> 00:37:13,520
Speaker 1: for Proda bag, a carry on bag. And he goes, well,

583
00:37:13,520 --> 00:37:15,680
Speaker 1: it's leather and it's crocodile and all that. He goes,

584
00:37:15,880 --> 00:37:17,960
Speaker 1: and I go, let me ask you something. I go

585
00:37:18,080 --> 00:37:21,479
Speaker 1: people coming here and buy fifty dollar bags. He goes, yeah,

586
00:37:21,600 --> 00:37:24,160
Speaker 1: you know, this is proud of all. He's a fucking accent.

587
00:37:24,200 --> 00:37:26,520
Speaker 1: I don't know if he's Greek or Israeli or Turkish,

588
00:37:26,520 --> 00:37:29,280
Speaker 1: I don't know. I said, well, listen, I'm gonna be honest.

589
00:37:29,360 --> 00:37:31,759
Speaker 1: I would like to see the bag, just to see

590
00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:33,600
Speaker 1: if I'm not buying it. I don't. I don't want

591
00:37:33,600 --> 00:37:37,520
Speaker 1: a crocodile bag. I'm not spending fifty k on on

592
00:37:37,560 --> 00:37:41,600
Speaker 1: anything any fucking thing. Um. They showed me the bag

593
00:37:41,600 --> 00:37:44,160
Speaker 1: and then they this, it's a regular bag, but with

594
00:37:44,239 --> 00:37:47,400
Speaker 1: crocodile skin. They go, but you know it has a

595
00:37:47,480 --> 00:37:51,200
Speaker 1: protector on it, so so when you're using it, you

596
00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:53,560
Speaker 1: know it won't get dinged up. I said, what's the

597
00:37:53,640 --> 00:37:55,880
Speaker 1: point of spending fifty dollars on the bag? If if,

598
00:37:56,000 --> 00:37:59,080
Speaker 1: if when you use it outside you have like a

599
00:37:59,200 --> 00:38:01,000
Speaker 1: protector on it, it looks like just a piece of

600
00:38:01,040 --> 00:38:03,960
Speaker 1: ship bag. Well, you just spend fifty dollars. I go,

601
00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:07,280
Speaker 1: but what's the point anyway, I didn't buy the fifty

602
00:38:07,640 --> 00:38:10,200
Speaker 1: dollar bag. I went to this two me store, you know,

603
00:38:10,320 --> 00:38:13,480
Speaker 1: to me t U M I, and I got myself

604
00:38:13,480 --> 00:38:17,000
Speaker 1: a nice little carry on bag and they embroidered it

605
00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:19,440
Speaker 1: with my my initials on it. I wanted stick Man,

606
00:38:20,800 --> 00:38:23,680
Speaker 1: but they can only put four. So I just, you know,

607
00:38:23,760 --> 00:38:27,720

Speaker 1: It happened a couple of weeks ago. UM, and I

653
00:41:25,360 --> 00:41:27,080
Speaker 1: want everybody to be on the lookout because I have

654
00:41:27,120 --> 00:41:29,400
Speaker 1: a feeling this might be some sort of con job.

655
00:41:30,200 --> 00:41:36,120
Speaker 1: This happened in Arizona. A six year old boy had

656
00:41:36,160 --> 00:41:39,440
Speaker 1: his birthday party, had like a Chucky cheese or some

657
00:41:39,520 --> 00:41:44,440
Speaker 1: birthday bowling place. A six year old boy um in

658
00:41:44,520 --> 00:41:50,800
Speaker 1: Arizona and and nobody showed up to his birthday Nobody

659
00:41:51,120 --> 00:41:53,560
Speaker 1: was a Lego land or some ship like this. Not

660
00:41:53,760 --> 00:41:58,600
Speaker 1: one friend showed up to his birthday party, and um,

661
00:41:58,640 --> 00:42:02,120
Speaker 1: you know, the story went viral as everything does. Remember

662
00:42:02,200 --> 00:42:05,040
Speaker 1: last year that that kid, that white trash kid who

663
00:42:05,080 --> 00:42:07,040
Speaker 1: was like, people are always bullying me. I can't remember

664
00:42:07,040 --> 00:42:08,960
Speaker 1: his name. Is a national story we talked about in

665
00:42:09,040 --> 00:42:11,120
Speaker 1: a bunch on the podcast. And his mom was like

666
00:42:11,160 --> 00:42:13,040
Speaker 1: why does everybody bully you? And he's like, I don't

667
00:42:13,040 --> 00:42:15,960
Speaker 1: know why they bully me, And like everybody invited them everywhere,

668
00:42:16,000 --> 00:42:18,360
Speaker 1: and like you know, they invited them to like you know,

669
00:42:18,440 --> 00:42:21,279
Speaker 1: movie premieres and basketball games and then they found out, oh,

670
00:42:21,280 --> 00:42:24,160
Speaker 1: this is this fake. So it was it was it

671
00:42:24,239 --> 00:42:27,880
Speaker 1: was a hoax and the parents were white supremacists and

672
00:42:27,880 --> 00:42:29,759
Speaker 1: all this ship. I have a feeling this could be

673
00:42:29,800 --> 00:42:33,879
Speaker 1: the same thing because the story win viral. He got

674
00:42:33,920 --> 00:42:39,320

675
00:42:39,680 --> 00:42:44,480
Speaker 1: and I have to say, either the parents are complete

676
00:42:44,640 --> 00:42:49,520
Speaker 1: fucking asshole motherfucker's that no other parents wanted their kid

677
00:42:49,600 --> 00:42:53,480

679
00:42:56,560 --> 00:43:00,000
Speaker 1: kid is an asshole or this is a con because

680
00:43:00,120 --> 00:43:02,040
Speaker 1: is I don't know, if you've had kids, you've got

681
00:43:02,040 --> 00:43:04,359
Speaker 1: cousins and stuff like that. When there's a party, there's

682
00:43:04,440 --> 00:43:08,279
Speaker 1: pizza and candy. It's not hard to get them to

683
00:43:08,320 --> 00:43:11,560
Speaker 1: show up for a party. So either the parents of

684
00:43:11,640 --> 00:43:15,359
Speaker 1: this six year old are fox, the six year old

685
00:43:15,440 --> 00:43:18,040

687
00:43:21,640 --> 00:43:24,839
Speaker 1: sixth birthday because you're a little prick. And then then

688
00:43:24,880 --> 00:43:28,200
Speaker 1: we could use this as a learning experience. Maybe between

689
00:43:28,280 --> 00:43:32,680
Speaker 1: now and your seventh birthday you'll improve on your behavior. Now,

690
00:43:32,719 --> 00:43:35,360
Speaker 1: I don't know what it is. It's either the little

691
00:43:35,360 --> 00:43:38,279
Speaker 1: boys of fuck the parents are a fox, or this

692
00:43:38,320 --> 00:43:41,120
Speaker 1: was a total con job. Um. But I want to

693
00:43:41,120 --> 00:43:43,600
Speaker 1: get to the bottom of this story, and anybody out

00:43:53,920 --> 00:43:58,240
Speaker 1: fishy here because little kids, little boys and girls, ice cream, candy,

698

Speaker 1: free pizza, Lego land or did the Dame where the funk?

699
00:44:00,960 --> 00:44:03,839
Speaker 1: This was bowling you. It's not hard to get people

700
00:44:03,840 --> 00:44:05,839
Speaker 1: to show up to these kinds of parties. But for

701
00:44:05,880 --> 00:44:08,800
Speaker 1: some reason, no one showed up for a little Teddy's birthday.

702
00:44:09,000 --> 00:44:10,759
Speaker 1: And he might be an asshole, but this could be

Speaker 1: a learning experience for you. Teddy podcast. Yeah, Nick Detarro

704

Speaker 1: is back on the im Wrapp Reports stereo podcast. Um,

705
00:44:28,400 --> 00:44:31,360
Speaker 1: I gotta tell you, and I don't use this word loosely.

706
00:44:32,040 --> 00:44:35,480
Speaker 1: A lot of people have been calling for you to

707
00:44:35,600 --> 00:44:39,080
Speaker 1: come back on the show. You know why. You know,

708
00:44:39,200 --> 00:44:42,439
Speaker 1: I do not know baseball. I leaned on you, Nick,

709
00:44:43,040 --> 00:44:46,479
Speaker 1: to help me with my pain, which is nowhere near

710
00:44:46,560 --> 00:44:50,600
Speaker 1: your baseball paint. But I asked you, I I asked you.

711
00:44:50,719 --> 00:44:56,640
Speaker 1: I said, Nick, Well the Houston Astros knock those red

712
00:44:56,719 --> 00:45:00,839
Speaker 1: faced Boston Fox down, And you say, yes, they will,

713
00:45:00,920 --> 00:45:04,319
Speaker 1: they will ruin them. And and that didn't happen, and

714
00:45:04,360 --> 00:45:08,160
Speaker 1: lo and behold they they won the World Series. First. First,

715
00:45:08,160 --> 00:45:10,319
Speaker 1: before I get into some detailed questions. Do you want

716
00:45:10,320 --> 00:45:12,919
Speaker 1: to answer for yourself right now, because because not only

717
00:45:12,960 --> 00:45:15,799
Speaker 1: me did you let down Nick? And we're friends twentysomething

718
00:45:15,920 --> 00:45:18,239
Speaker 1: years now, there's a lot of people that were like,

719
00:45:18,440 --> 00:45:21,360
Speaker 1: you gave them hope and and we we have nothing

720
00:45:21,440 --> 00:45:24,120
Speaker 1: but our dicks in our hands right now. So I'll

721
00:45:24,200 --> 00:45:27,880
Speaker 1: let you speak for yourself. Nick to Starwards, I really

722
00:45:27,920 --> 00:45:30,640
Speaker 1: felt in my heart that the Astros were the team

723
00:45:30,680 --> 00:45:32,880
Speaker 1: this year, and they went all the way they at

724
00:45:32,960 --> 00:45:36,240
Speaker 1: last year. There were a complete team. In my book,

725
00:45:36,840 --> 00:45:41,080
Speaker 1: they were a force to be reckoned with. But sometimes,

726
00:45:41,920 --> 00:45:44,279
Speaker 1: you know, you let your hatred get in a way

727
00:45:45,080 --> 00:45:47,920
Speaker 1: and your prejudice get in a way of things. And

728
00:45:47,960 --> 00:45:52,640
Speaker 1: the Red Sox, you know, we're a grinding, blue collar

729
00:45:52,760 --> 00:45:56,480
Speaker 1: team with a rookie manager that was on that Astro staff,

730
00:45:56,680 --> 00:45:59,839
Speaker 1: this guy Alex Cora, who managed his fucking ass off

731
00:46:00,000 --> 00:46:02,960
Speaker 1: of the way, who really was on top of every pitch,

732
00:46:03,040 --> 00:46:07,560
Speaker 1: every moment. And it's tough to repeat. It's tough to repeat.

733
00:46:07,600 --> 00:46:10,000
Speaker 1: You now, you can predict sports all you want. That's

734
00:46:10,000 --> 00:46:13,240
Speaker 1: why the experts are all full of ship. And maybe

735
00:46:13,280 --> 00:46:15,600
Speaker 1: I you know, like I said, maybe I went with

736
00:46:15,640 --> 00:46:18,840
Speaker 1: my my anger. Maybe I didn't give the Red Sox

737
00:46:18,880 --> 00:46:22,440
Speaker 1: their due, and they proved me wrong. They proved a

738
00:46:22,440 --> 00:46:24,920
Speaker 1: lot of people wrong. But the Astros were a guy

739
00:46:25,040 --> 00:46:28,560
Speaker 1: on my team, but the Red Sox outplayed them. The

740
00:46:28,640 --> 00:46:31,840
Speaker 1: Red Sox had a lot of guys that when the

741
00:46:31,920 --> 00:46:34,520
Speaker 1: Yankees will winning in the nineties, those kind of players,

742
00:46:34,800 --> 00:46:37,600
Speaker 1: guys that not always the stars, Guys like Steve Pierce,

743
00:46:37,920 --> 00:46:40,920
Speaker 1: guys like brock Holt, guys that are dirt bomb is.

744
00:46:41,080 --> 00:46:43,759
Speaker 1: I call them dirt bomb players because they're guys that

745
00:46:43,800 --> 00:46:46,600
Speaker 1: have paid their dues and that's what it takes to

746
00:46:46,640 --> 00:46:49,600
Speaker 1: get a fucking championship. You gotta get down and dirty

747
00:46:49,719 --> 00:46:53,560
Speaker 1: and dirty players. And it's not always the stars. Mookie

748
00:46:53,600 --> 00:46:56,719
Speaker 1: Betts hardly did ship. Jade Martinez did the thing. But

749
00:46:56,840 --> 00:47:00,720
Speaker 1: it's there's a lot to it. And listen, I was wrong.

750
00:47:01,480 --> 00:47:03,560
Speaker 1: I don't know at all, but I know plenty, but

751
00:47:03,719 --> 00:47:07,279
Speaker 1: it's hard to predict sports sometimes. And you know, listen,

752
00:47:07,320 --> 00:47:09,560
Speaker 1: you got a tippy cap. They beat the Yankees, the

753
00:47:09,600 --> 00:47:12,760
Speaker 1: Yankees world floored team. The Astros I thought were probably

754
00:47:12,800 --> 00:47:15,680
Speaker 1: a better team, and they took it to them. That's why,

755
00:47:15,760 --> 00:47:19,360
Speaker 1: in a short sample size, you know, anything can happen.

756
00:47:19,719 --> 00:47:22,919
Speaker 1: It was their year. Everything they did went their way.

757
00:47:23,040 --> 00:47:25,920
Speaker 1: The Dodgers were a soft team. The Dodgers backed their

758
00:47:25,920 --> 00:47:28,680
Speaker 1: way into the into the playoffs. My friend, they had

759
00:47:28,719 --> 00:47:30,920
Speaker 1: to win an extra game just to kid in the playoffs.

760
00:47:31,040 --> 00:47:34,000
Speaker 1: The National League is very floored the American League. I

761
00:47:34,000 --> 00:47:35,959
Speaker 1: think the Yankees or the Ashuls could have beat any

762
00:47:35,960 --> 00:47:41,160
Speaker 1: team internationally. But listen the the Red Socks. They did

763
00:47:41,239 --> 00:47:43,759
Speaker 1: what they had to do. They maybe eat Ship. I

764
00:47:43,960 --> 00:47:46,440
Speaker 1: ate Ship, but I'll be back. They got four championships

765
00:47:46,440 --> 00:47:49,840
Speaker 1: in this millennium. Whatever happened, a Rod broke the curse,

766
00:47:50,280 --> 00:47:55,920
Speaker 1: something happened. They're free. They're very free. Did let me

767
00:47:55,960 --> 00:47:58,120
Speaker 1: ask you a question. Didn't you like it better when

768
00:47:58,120 --> 00:48:01,080
Speaker 1: they weren't free? Well, didn't you like it better when

769
00:48:01,080 --> 00:48:05,319
Speaker 1: we stomped their fucking assholes? I like that. That's just

770
00:48:05,440 --> 00:48:08,399
Speaker 1: me too, No, no, I'm with you. It was way

771
00:48:08,440 --> 00:48:11,440
Speaker 1: more interesting when they were the lovable losers. It was

772
00:48:11,480 --> 00:48:14,359
Speaker 1: way more interesting when Babe Bruce had to curse on them.

773
00:48:14,640 --> 00:48:17,120
Speaker 1: And now that there's a team of the Millennium, now

774
00:48:17,160 --> 00:48:20,759
Speaker 1: they've won four championships, it's not as interesting. It's not

775
00:48:20,880 --> 00:48:23,239
Speaker 1: as interesting, and it's not even that fascinating to me.

776
00:48:23,560 --> 00:48:26,120
Speaker 1: Go fuck them. They got a couple of championships. Now

777
00:48:26,239 --> 00:48:29,359
Speaker 1: four championships, and they're singing New York, New York because

778
00:48:29,400 --> 00:48:32,200
Speaker 1: poor Aaron Judge had a little fun with them. Now

779
00:48:32,239 --> 00:48:34,040
Speaker 1: they want to say. Now they want to sing New York,

780
00:48:34,120 --> 00:48:37,359
Speaker 1: New York. And they're still going on about these Yankees. Suck.

781
00:48:37,480 --> 00:48:40,399
Speaker 1: You beat the Yankees. Shut the funk up, you beat

782
00:48:40,480 --> 00:48:44,759
Speaker 1: the Yankees. You don't get over it, motherfucker, get over it.

783
00:48:45,760 --> 00:48:47,920
Speaker 1: They're still on the Yankees, you know why, because the

784
00:48:48,040 --> 00:48:50,840
Speaker 1: Yankees are the big dick and they'll never be the

785
00:48:50,880 --> 00:48:54,959
Speaker 1: fucking Yankee famine. Their fourth championship in their beautiful ball park,

786
00:48:55,200 --> 00:48:57,759
Speaker 1: and their hardcore fans gotta give it to them for

787
00:48:57,920 --> 00:49:01,160
Speaker 1: fuck them. They got a few championship so one they're

788
00:49:01,200 --> 00:49:04,800
Speaker 1: still gonna be jealous of the Yankees. Mikey. In their sleep,

789
00:49:04,880 --> 00:49:07,000
Speaker 1: they're thinking about the Yankees, you know why, because they

790
00:49:07,000 --> 00:49:10,359
Speaker 1: could never be the Yankees. The Dodgers, the Dodges are

791
00:49:10,480 --> 00:49:14,120
Speaker 1: basted child of New York. Anyway. Just remember the Giants

792
00:49:14,120 --> 00:49:16,600
Speaker 1: and the Dodgers had an affair, and the bastard child

793
00:49:16,719 --> 00:49:19,520
Speaker 1: was the met The Dodgers are a watered down, fucking

794
00:49:19,640 --> 00:49:22,399
Speaker 1: version anyway. But anyway, getting back to the Red Sox,

795
00:49:22,440 --> 00:49:24,640
Speaker 1: I'm with you. Now that they've won, they're not as

796
00:49:24,680 --> 00:49:27,960
Speaker 1: interesting to go away, Go the fuck away. They got

797
00:49:28,000 --> 00:49:32,760
Speaker 1: the vampies. But the Yankee listen, it is what they want.

798
00:49:33,200 --> 00:49:35,279
Speaker 1: I give it to them. But you know, there's still

799
00:49:35,360 --> 00:49:37,759
Speaker 1: the Red Sox. They're still gonna be that kind of

800
00:49:37,840 --> 00:49:40,839
Speaker 1: bean town shanty whatever. I don't even want to get

801
00:49:40,840 --> 00:49:43,719
Speaker 1: into it, but you listen, they had a good team,

802
00:49:43,880 --> 00:49:46,040
Speaker 1: they had a complete team, and that's what it takes

803
00:49:46,080 --> 00:49:49,359
Speaker 1: to win. But something will happen again and they will

804
00:49:49,400 --> 00:49:51,800
Speaker 1: be like put downs. I hope so. I hope this

805
00:49:52,400 --> 00:49:56,359
Speaker 1: because they were more interesting. Take there, buddy, they were

806
00:49:56,480 --> 00:49:59,880
Speaker 1: more interestings. You're right when they were losing. You know,

807
00:50:00,280 --> 00:50:01,919
Speaker 1: the Cubs. The Cups got off the head of coat.

808
00:50:02,160 --> 00:50:04,160
Speaker 1: They broke the curse of the Philly Coat. And now

809
00:50:04,160 --> 00:50:06,800
Speaker 1: the Cubs now that comes back to being the Cubs. Somehow,

810
00:50:06,840 --> 00:50:08,920
Speaker 1: the Red Sox had to be put back in their place.

811
00:50:09,360 --> 00:50:11,399
Speaker 1: But now they think, who the funk they are. They've

812
00:50:11,400 --> 00:50:14,440
Speaker 1: got a few championships. They're happy. You know, look at

813
00:50:14,440 --> 00:50:17,160
Speaker 1: the Patriots. No one tips because the Patriots placed somewhere

814
00:50:17,160 --> 00:50:19,880
Speaker 1: out in Foxborough. Boston is a Red Sox town. You

815
00:50:19,920 --> 00:50:23,400
Speaker 1: gotta remember that Red Sox in the Celtics. But listen,

816
00:50:23,760 --> 00:50:26,840
Speaker 1: you know they're still gonna be the little cousin to

817
00:50:27,000 --> 00:50:29,960
Speaker 1: New York to the Yankees. Still, oh New York. You

818
00:50:30,080 --> 00:50:33,319
Speaker 1: know that we're not from fucking Boston. I respect those guys,

819
00:50:33,320 --> 00:50:37,000
Speaker 1: but fuck them. Distill Boston. They're not New York. They're

820
00:50:37,000 --> 00:50:39,240
Speaker 1: not New York. Let me let me ask you two questions.

821
00:50:40,239 --> 00:50:43,080
Speaker 1: I know, I know baseball is a rough and tumble

822
00:50:43,160 --> 00:50:46,640
Speaker 1: thing for you, Like I think you take baseball more

823
00:50:46,760 --> 00:50:51,680
Speaker 1: seriously then definitely. I mean, i'd take certain winning, certain

824
00:50:51,719 --> 00:50:55,839
Speaker 1: losing certain sports hard. But as we said the last

825
00:50:55,840 --> 00:50:58,239
Speaker 1: time you were here, you you're on another planet with you,

826
00:50:58,320 --> 00:51:02,480
Speaker 1: with your baseball, with your Yank. Specifically, this is a

827
00:51:02,600 --> 00:51:06,400
Speaker 1: very specific question. What's worse, Nick T. Turro, what is

828
00:51:06,480 --> 00:51:13,160
Speaker 1: worse for you the Yankees losing or the Red Sox winning?

829
00:51:13,880 --> 00:51:16,000
Speaker 1: Do you understand, like, what is harder for you to

830
00:51:16,080 --> 00:51:20,200
Speaker 1: swallow the Yankees losing to the Red Sox or inevitably

831
00:51:20,520 --> 00:51:23,520
Speaker 1: the Red Sox winning the World Series? Does that make sense?

832
00:51:24,719 --> 00:51:28,239
Speaker 1: So I understand what you're you're you're saying to me,

833
00:51:28,760 --> 00:51:31,080
Speaker 1: I don't give a ship they want. I don't want

834
00:51:31,080 --> 00:51:34,000
Speaker 1: to lose to them, So I don't want to move.

835
00:51:34,080 --> 00:51:38,680
Speaker 1: It's the Yankees losing. Yes, after that, I shot my load, Baby,

836
00:51:38,920 --> 00:51:41,200
Speaker 1: I shot my load. I shot my wad. It's over.

837
00:51:41,480 --> 00:51:44,000
Speaker 1: I don't give a fuck. I know the Dodgers was soft.

838
00:51:44,760 --> 00:51:47,360
Speaker 1: It's all over because you remember, it's all about the Yankees.

839
00:51:47,360 --> 00:51:52,120
Speaker 1: For me, lose, my life stops. And I could sit

840
00:51:52,160 --> 00:51:54,920
Speaker 1: back and I could be objective. And I knew they

841
00:51:54,960 --> 00:51:56,920
Speaker 1: were going to beat the Dodges, you know, and I

842
00:51:57,000 --> 00:51:59,279
Speaker 1: probably knew in my heart they're gonna beat the Astros.

843
00:51:59,320 --> 00:52:01,359
Speaker 1: But I said, come let me see if I can

844
00:52:01,440 --> 00:52:03,120
Speaker 1: just put a little weary on them. But it was

845
00:52:03,160 --> 00:52:06,520
Speaker 1: their gear. But listen, losing, When I lose, that's it.

846
00:52:06,680 --> 00:52:09,040
Speaker 1: It's over. It's all over for me. Then I sit

847
00:52:09,080 --> 00:52:10,840
Speaker 1: back and I have a little fun with it, but

848
00:52:10,960 --> 00:52:13,080
Speaker 1: I can sip my cap to them. But losing to

849
00:52:13,120 --> 00:52:16,440
Speaker 1: them is rough. Losing to them is a hard pill

850
00:52:16,640 --> 00:52:19,960
Speaker 1: pill to swallow. But history, my friend, Mikey, just remember,

851
00:52:20,040 --> 00:52:23,440
Speaker 1: history is on our side. They got four fucking championships,

852
00:52:23,760 --> 00:52:27,120
Speaker 1: we got twenty seven, so you know when they nowhere

853
00:52:27,239 --> 00:52:29,879
Speaker 1: near us. But we gotta turn to we gotta turn

854
00:52:29,920 --> 00:52:31,960
Speaker 1: the tide. We gotta do something to put these people

855
00:52:31,960 --> 00:52:34,560
Speaker 1: back in their place. Now they've got big poppy. Now

856
00:52:34,600 --> 00:52:38,000
Speaker 1: they're like, they think they're America's teams. You're not America's team.

857
00:52:38,040 --> 00:52:40,080
Speaker 1: We don't know. The rest of the country doesn't like

858
00:52:40,160 --> 00:52:45,719
Speaker 1: these fox No they don't. That's that's yeah. No, they

859
00:52:45,840 --> 00:52:48,560
Speaker 1: they'll they will never like them. They will never like them,

860
00:52:48,560 --> 00:52:51,040
Speaker 1: and they will always be the Boston Red Sox. And

861
00:52:51,080 --> 00:52:54,279
Speaker 1: they're singing Yankee suck and now they sing in New York,

862
00:52:54,320 --> 00:52:57,680
Speaker 1: New York. Get stop, get over it. You're fucking you

863
00:52:57,800 --> 00:53:00,160
Speaker 1: want you want a couple of things. But believe me,

864
00:53:00,320 --> 00:53:03,480
Speaker 1: history will well, we'll turn it around in the history

865
00:53:03,520 --> 00:53:05,840
Speaker 1: will put the Red Slots back in their place sooner

866
00:53:05,920 --> 00:53:08,120
Speaker 1: or later. But they've gotten a little out of hand

867
00:53:08,560 --> 00:53:10,439
Speaker 1: and now you know, they feel like, you know, we're

868
00:53:10,440 --> 00:53:12,920
Speaker 1: the fucking big dog in town. But to trust me,

869
00:53:13,239 --> 00:53:15,839
Speaker 1: it will turn around again and they will go back

870
00:53:15,880 --> 00:53:18,239
Speaker 1: to being a fucking Red Sox that they've always been.

871
00:53:18,920 --> 00:53:20,839
Speaker 1: I'm not worried about it. Let them have a couple

872
00:53:20,880 --> 00:53:23,640
Speaker 1: of championships. You know, it bothers me a little bit,

873
00:53:23,680 --> 00:53:26,000
Speaker 1: It does bother me a lot, But you know, I'm

874
00:53:26,040 --> 00:53:29,560
Speaker 1: also a good loser, and I can say, hey, they

875
00:53:29,640 --> 00:53:33,000
Speaker 1: deserved it, they earned it all right, enough is enough,

876
00:53:33,360 --> 00:53:36,359
Speaker 1: all right? Stop singing New York, New York. Stop singing

877
00:53:36,360 --> 00:53:39,759
Speaker 1: that you stop singing that song. Yeah, get back to

878
00:53:39,800 --> 00:53:45,000
Speaker 1: the fucking street chat line. Why don't you got this song, Mikey?

879
00:53:45,040 --> 00:53:47,680
Speaker 1: They got this song, but they hung up on the Yankees,

880
00:53:47,719 --> 00:53:50,160
Speaker 1: that hung up on New York. They can't ever fucking

881
00:53:50,160 --> 00:53:52,560
Speaker 1: get by it. They can't get past buck again. They

882
00:53:52,560 --> 00:53:55,160
Speaker 1: can't get pass a lot of ship and they never will.

883
00:53:55,920 --> 00:53:59,120
Speaker 1: They never will. You look at them. Now, now let

884
00:53:59,120 --> 00:54:01,000
Speaker 1: me ask you. Let me ask you my second question.

885
00:54:01,080 --> 00:54:02,960
Speaker 1: This is a final question. Now, this is a little

886
00:54:03,200 --> 00:54:05,920
Speaker 1: a little bit more morose. But you know I watched

887
00:54:05,920 --> 00:54:10,520
Speaker 1: the World Series. You know I invested in the Dodgers. Um.

888
00:54:10,560 --> 00:54:12,319
Speaker 1: But this is a question I have and I want

889
00:54:12,320 --> 00:54:13,839
Speaker 1: you to help me sort it out, because I got

890
00:54:13,840 --> 00:54:16,840
Speaker 1: my eye on three guys. If I was to drag

891
00:54:16,920 --> 00:54:20,800
Speaker 1: one of these fucking Boston Red Sox in in Fenway,

892
00:54:20,920 --> 00:54:23,160
Speaker 1: drag them out to the mound, or maybe we do

893
00:54:23,200 --> 00:54:25,560
Speaker 1: it private, we do it like in the clubhouse or

894
00:54:25,719 --> 00:54:28,520
Speaker 1: in the in the bullpen. If I was to drag

895
00:54:28,560 --> 00:54:31,600
Speaker 1: one of these fox uh into a private place and

896
00:54:31,600 --> 00:54:34,720
Speaker 1: and have my way with with one one one player

897
00:54:34,880 --> 00:54:37,759

898
00:54:37,800 --> 00:54:41,200
Speaker 1: having a good time. Uh, not anything totally inappropriate, but

899
00:54:41,280 --> 00:54:42,920
Speaker 1: just rough house a little bit, like you know, I'm

00:55:26,000 --> 00:55:28,560
Speaker 1: or the other guy like brock Holt as another guy

913
00:55:28,560 --> 00:55:30,719
Speaker 1: that was born a red Sox. You gotta remember when

914
00:55:30,719 --> 00:55:33,560
Speaker 1: these people came out of the womb, they were red Sox.

915
00:55:33,960 --> 00:55:36,840
Speaker 1: They were born red Sox. They look like red Sox,

916
00:55:37,040 --> 00:55:39,920
Speaker 1: they feel like red Sox. There are some people that

917
00:55:40,000 --> 00:55:42,040
Speaker 1: when they come out on the earth, they get a

918
00:55:42,080 --> 00:55:46,240
Speaker 1: fucking red sock jersey on them, Joe, Kelly, Rock Holt,

919
00:55:46,400 --> 00:55:49,319
Speaker 1: these are red Sox in their core. Like you go back,

920
00:55:49,360 --> 00:55:52,800
Speaker 1: Holton Fisk, that's a red Sox, that's heart. Even Wade

921
00:55:52,800 --> 00:55:54,960
Speaker 1: Box he played for us, Wade Brox is a red

922
00:55:54,960 --> 00:55:58,600
Speaker 1: Sock in his fucking on his ass. These people, that's

923
00:55:58,640 --> 00:56:01,560
Speaker 1: what they are. That's why I want those people with

924
00:56:01,640 --> 00:56:04,200
Speaker 1: those people near me. Yeah, I don't want them near me,

925
00:56:04,680 --> 00:56:06,200
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, But they don't let them

926
00:56:06,239 --> 00:56:09,200
Speaker 1: have that. They listen, they're always gonna still be sucking

927
00:56:09,280 --> 00:56:12,440
Speaker 1: second rate. Just remember that they're always gonna be second rate.

928
00:56:12,600 --> 00:56:14,680

Speaker 1: We got we got the Yankees, we got history, we

930
00:56:18,040 --> 00:56:19,440
Speaker 1: got a lot on our side, all right. The mix

931
00:56:19,520 --> 00:56:23,120
Speaker 1: of sucks for years. But listen, we're still still New York.

932
00:56:23,880 --> 00:56:26,239
Speaker 1: We're still in New York. Mike was still in New York.

933
00:56:26,560 --> 00:56:28,840
Speaker 1: And they're still thinking about us. So what does that

934
00:56:28,880 --> 00:56:32,200
Speaker 1: tell you? That tells you that they you know, you

00:56:36,560 --> 00:56:39,560
Speaker 1: have their day in the sun whatever. Sooner or later,

938
00:56:40,400 --> 00:56:42,879
Speaker 1: order will be restored and they'll be put put back

939
00:56:42,880 --> 00:56:47,239
Speaker 1: to where they belong, being that fucking team and being town.

940
00:56:47,280 --> 00:56:50,120
Speaker 1: You know what I mean. You know, I'm not worried

941
00:56:50,120 --> 00:56:53,480
Speaker 1: about it. Listen, I can take it. They're not gonna

00:56:53,520 --> 00:56:56,920
Speaker 1: They're not gonna rule the next fifty years. Peaceball. You know,

943
00:56:57,000 --> 00:56:59,200
Speaker 1: now you've got you've got a lot of ship going on.

944
00:56:59,239 --> 00:57:01,239
Speaker 1: You got a these nerves running baseball, and you had

945
00:57:01,280 --> 00:57:03,480
Speaker 1: all these analytics and you know, but they made a

946
00:57:03,520 --> 00:57:05,799
Speaker 1: couple of good moves. They had a good higher. This

947
00:57:05,840 --> 00:57:08,000
Speaker 1: guy Alex Corral, give him his credit. Is any from

948
00:57:08,040 --> 00:57:13,000
Speaker 1: New York though, Cora, No, he's Puerto Rican He's from Coaguays,

949
00:57:13,000 --> 00:57:16,760
Speaker 1: Puerto Rico. And uh he's he's a good manager. He's

950
00:57:16,760 --> 00:57:20,440
Speaker 1: good manager. He manages from his cut. He puts starting pitches,

951
00:57:21,320 --> 00:57:23,280
Speaker 1: he put them in the bullpen. He brought guys out

952
00:57:23,320 --> 00:57:25,720
Speaker 1: of the bullpen. He did things from his gut. And

953
00:57:25,760 --> 00:57:28,840
Speaker 1: I have to say, you know, he wasn't so you know, mechanical.

954
00:57:29,000 --> 00:57:31,360
Speaker 1: He didn't listen to all the animal is you listen

955
00:57:31,400 --> 00:57:33,320
Speaker 1: to all these gms that kind of like try to

956
00:57:33,400 --> 00:57:36,040
Speaker 1: run the show. And h he managed from you know,

957
00:57:36,080 --> 00:57:38,440
Speaker 1: with some balls, and I give him credit. You know,

958
00:57:38,480 --> 00:57:40,400
Speaker 1: the Red Sox they made a good higher. This guy

959
00:57:40,440 --> 00:57:42,880
Speaker 1: was a fucking this guy really knew what he was doing.

960
00:57:42,920 --> 00:57:45,200
Speaker 1: I saw him going head to head with other guys,

961
00:57:45,240 --> 00:57:47,600
Speaker 1: and he was on every pitch and he was going

962
00:57:47,640 --> 00:57:49,560
Speaker 1: from his gut. And you gotta watch the game, man,

963
00:57:49,640 --> 00:57:51,520
Speaker 1: you gotta watch the game with your eyeballs. And the

964
00:57:51,520 --> 00:57:54,360
Speaker 1: playoffs in the post seasons different than the regular season.

965
00:57:54,880 --> 00:57:57,520
Speaker 1: And the Red Sox they had a good combination. Chris Sale,

966
00:57:57,520 --> 00:58:00,440
Speaker 1: the crazy white guy. You se him screaming, you see screaming,

967
00:58:00,440 --> 00:58:03,040
Speaker 1: and the dugouts your life like that. You need guys

968
00:58:03,120 --> 00:58:05,120
Speaker 1: like that. You need guys that get fund Because the

969
00:58:05,120 --> 00:58:07,640
Speaker 1: red Sons, you know, they weren't the greatest team I

970
00:58:07,680 --> 00:58:10,160
Speaker 1: ever saw it, but the Dodgers were a soft team. Listening,

971
00:58:10,280 --> 00:58:12,400
Speaker 1: Yankees were a fucking hit away from going to a

972
00:58:12,440 --> 00:58:15,080
Speaker 1: fifth game, so you know, they didn't blow me away,

973
00:58:15,160 --> 00:58:19,280
Speaker 1: but listen, it deserved. Overall, they had the most complete

974
00:58:19,320 --> 00:58:21,600
Speaker 1: team and they played the best ball. I want to

975
00:58:21,640 --> 00:58:25,240
Speaker 1: count it, So don't worry about it. It's not It's

976
00:58:25,240 --> 00:58:29,160
Speaker 1: not gonna fucking turn history upside down as their fourth championship,

977
00:58:29,560 --> 00:58:33,360
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. But as far as banging somebody, yo, Kelly,

Speaker 1: do one right on the monster. Had these seats up

1009
01:00:53,160 --> 01:00:57,959
Speaker 1: you this. I'm not counting your pocket You made money

1010
01:00:58,000 --> 01:01:02,960
Speaker 1: as a football player. You may money speaking about sports.

1011
01:01:03,800 --> 01:01:06,840

Speaker 1: that I'm asking you're not hard up for money. You

1013
01:01:09,880 --> 01:01:13,320
Speaker 1: got money. So there's boxing, there's the m m A.

1014
01:01:13,560 --> 01:01:17,960
Speaker 1: Why the fuck bear knuckle well, why not like boxing gloves?

1015
01:01:18,280 --> 01:01:20,680
Speaker 1: Why not some sort of pads. So, so this is

1016
01:01:20,720 --> 01:01:22,440
Speaker 1: the way I trained. You know, when we're training, we

1017
01:01:22,480 --> 01:01:24,680
Speaker 1: got we got gloves on. So and then I'll trim

1018
01:01:24,760 --> 01:01:26,680
Speaker 1: down the gloves and I'll do, you know, just bear

1019
01:01:26,760 --> 01:01:30,160
Speaker 1: knuckle conditioning right, I've seen ment walks and you know,

1020
01:01:30,200 --> 01:01:33,320
Speaker 1: punching some wood stuff like that's just really conditioning the knuckles.

1021
01:01:33,360 --> 01:01:35,920
Speaker 1: But to me, like, you know, I was gonna take

1022
01:01:35,960 --> 01:01:37,720
Speaker 1: a fight no matter what, right when I get when

1023
01:01:37,720 --> 01:01:40,560
Speaker 1: I retired. I think you've been talking about yeah for

1024
01:01:40,760 --> 01:01:43,360
Speaker 1: a couple of years now. Um. The first the first

1025
01:01:43,360 --> 01:01:45,800
Speaker 1: time I came up was about two and a half

1026
01:01:45,840 --> 01:01:48,800
Speaker 1: three years ago, Um, when I was gonna possibly fight

1027
01:01:48,840 --> 01:01:52,160
Speaker 1: with Bellator. So I was talking to Scott Coker and

1028
01:01:52,280 --> 01:01:54,040
Speaker 1: you know, the whole group Ridged and everybody over there,

1029
01:01:54,080 --> 01:01:56,120
Speaker 1: and it was like, all right, well, let's let's do it.

1030
01:01:56,200 --> 01:01:58,400
Speaker 1: So what I did was I kind of became like

1031
01:01:58,440 --> 01:02:01,040
Speaker 1: a like a bad should have for them almost in

1032
01:02:01,040 --> 01:02:04,600
Speaker 1: a way anyway that they just really never came to

1033
01:02:04,640 --> 01:02:07,800
Speaker 1: the table. So that didn't happen. Uh. So my manager had,

1034
01:02:08,000 --> 01:02:09,840
Speaker 1: you know, the following year and said, you know what

1035
01:02:10,360 --> 01:02:13,600
Speaker 1: w b KFF Barre Knuckle Fighting Federation, you know, would

1036
01:02:13,640 --> 01:02:16,800
Speaker 1: you still want to fight? I said, hell, yeah, you know,

1037
01:02:16,920 --> 01:02:20,280
Speaker 1: And and even though it sounds a little bit more brutal,

1038
01:02:20,280 --> 01:02:24,800
Speaker 1: and it is, the learning curve is a lot different, man.

1039
01:02:24,840 --> 01:02:27,880
Speaker 1: And when you're going in because it's boxing rules, it's

1040
01:02:27,920 --> 01:02:29,880
Speaker 1: boxing rules. So no kneeds, no take to the ground,

1041
01:02:30,080 --> 01:02:32,760
Speaker 1: no kicks or anything like that. It's all stand up.

1042
01:02:32,800 --> 01:02:36,400
Speaker 1: It's all stand up. Okay. So it's essentially boxing with

1043
01:02:36,480 --> 01:02:39,640
Speaker 1: no gloves, right, you're just you're really just taking the

1044
01:02:39,760 --> 01:02:43,280
Speaker 1: risk and I think no elbows. Okay, So it's all

1045
01:02:43,320 --> 01:02:46,440
Speaker 1: fisted all this, it's all fit so um for me

1046
01:02:46,480 --> 01:02:48,600
Speaker 1: in my background, I didn't know that. Yeah, for me

1047
01:02:48,640 --> 01:02:51,160
Speaker 1: in my background where I come from, For one, this

1048
01:02:51,160 --> 01:02:53,240
Speaker 1: this is hardly my first barren knuckle fighting me in

1049
01:02:53,560 --> 01:02:56,520
Speaker 1: I grew up PG County, Maryland, UM Capital Heights, Fort

1050
01:02:56,640 --> 01:02:59,000
Speaker 1: Villa District Heights, UM and went to schooling up in

1051
01:02:59,040 --> 01:03:02,080
Speaker 1: mab Boro, And uh so fighting was kind of a

1052
01:03:02,080 --> 01:03:03,760
Speaker 1: way of life for us, a little bit in the way.

1053
01:03:03,760 --> 01:03:05,760
Speaker 1: Well that's how we kind of got down from where

1054
01:03:05,760 --> 01:03:08,640
Speaker 1: I was, or how we settled disputes, whether it's neighborhood

1055
01:03:08,680 --> 01:03:11,560
Speaker 1: or whether it's going against another neighborhood or whatever it is. Um.

1056
01:03:11,600 --> 01:03:15,200
Speaker 1: So me, you know, this was the fastest learning curve

1057
01:03:15,280 --> 01:03:18,840
Speaker 1: that I can get into. Just really the fighting arena

1058
01:03:18,840 --> 01:03:21,400
Speaker 1: in general, why do you want to fight? Like? I mean,

1059
01:03:21,440 --> 01:03:24,880
Speaker 1: obviously you know injuries, you had a great career, injuries

1060
01:03:24,880 --> 01:03:27,800
Speaker 1: you suffered from injuries. But but that need, Like it's

1061
01:03:27,800 --> 01:03:30,400
Speaker 1: not like, all, well, I'm gonna play flag football or NBA.

1062
01:03:30,480 --> 01:03:32,440
Speaker 1: Do you know we're gonna play Big three. It's like,

1063
01:03:32,520 --> 01:03:35,080
Speaker 1: you know, like there's the flag football League or coaching

1064
01:03:35,120 --> 01:03:38,160
Speaker 1: or where I mean fighting, It's like it's a different Yeah,

1065
01:03:38,200 --> 01:03:41,040
Speaker 1: it's different. It's different, um needs, it's a it's a

1066
01:03:41,080 --> 01:03:42,880
Speaker 1: whole different animal. And the reason why I say that

1067
01:03:42,920 --> 01:03:46,200
Speaker 1: is because, um, you know, there are a bunch of similarities,

1068
01:03:46,280 --> 01:03:49,640
Speaker 1: similarities from football from where I came from the background,

1069
01:03:49,680 --> 01:03:52,480
Speaker 1: being disciplined, being able to push yourself, having that mental

1070
01:03:52,880 --> 01:03:55,080
Speaker 1: mindset like I'm gonna go out and I'm gonna get

1071
01:03:55,080 --> 01:03:57,200
Speaker 1: it in right, I'm gonna go after it. So that

1072
01:03:57,280 --> 01:04:01,160
Speaker 1: part you can't take from football to fighting. The difference

1073
01:04:01,240 --> 01:04:04,320
Speaker 1: is you got some of these guys, especially who I trained,

1074
01:04:04,400 --> 01:04:06,800
Speaker 1: was been fighting since they were you know, fifteen sixty

1075
01:04:06,800 --> 01:04:10,080
Speaker 1: and seventeen years old, sometimes even younger. So they're more skilled.

1076
01:04:10,760 --> 01:04:13,440
Speaker 1: Um So if anything, that's that's where you know, I

1077
01:04:13,480 --> 01:04:15,880
Speaker 1: have to I had to learn how to pick it up.

1078
01:04:16,280 --> 01:04:18,920
Speaker 1: But I was. I was one of the first football

1079
01:04:18,960 --> 01:04:21,760
Speaker 1: guys that started to train over with Jay Glazer. This

1080
01:04:21,840 --> 01:04:23,920
Speaker 1: is like back in two thousand and six. So when

1081
01:04:23,960 --> 01:04:26,160
Speaker 1: I when I first means what like Jay Glazers, like

1082
01:04:26,480 --> 01:04:29,480
Speaker 1: he explained this training, So it was more of M

1083
01:04:29,520 --> 01:04:31,400
Speaker 1: M A. So when I when I first started, while

1084
01:04:31,400 --> 01:04:33,000
Speaker 1: you were playing football, I was playing football. So I

1085
01:04:33,080 --> 01:04:35,320
Speaker 1: was doing it during the off season because I literally

1086
01:04:35,360 --> 01:04:37,240
Speaker 1: just wanted to get my hand dot coordination of the

1087
01:04:37,240 --> 01:04:40,160
Speaker 1: pass rusher, so being violent with your hands and leverage

1088
01:04:40,160 --> 01:04:41,760
Speaker 1: and being able to open your hips and turns. So

1089
01:04:41,800 --> 01:04:44,440
Speaker 1: I I in stamina. Um. I really just wanted to

1090
01:04:44,480 --> 01:04:47,960
Speaker 1: get better doing and changing my workout for football. Um.

1091
01:04:48,120 --> 01:04:50,760
Speaker 1: And this is when I was around like Chuckle Dale

1092
01:04:50,800 --> 01:04:53,640
Speaker 1: ran the guatur um on Tyrone Whitley when he first

1093
01:04:53,680 --> 01:04:55,320
Speaker 1: when he first you know, got hot and got in

1094
01:04:55,320 --> 01:04:57,160
Speaker 1: the mix, just like back in two thousand and six,

1095
01:04:57,440 --> 01:04:59,360
Speaker 1: two thousand and seven, while I was training with a

1096
01:04:59,400 --> 01:05:02,000
Speaker 1: lot of these guys doing the all season, UM, I

1097
01:05:02,040 --> 01:05:04,840
Speaker 1: started to have more of like a passion for it, man,

1098
01:05:04,880 --> 01:05:06,960
Speaker 1: where I would just it ate me alive to not

1099
01:05:07,040 --> 01:05:08,920
Speaker 1: get better. So I started to work and work and

1100
01:05:08,920 --> 01:05:11,560
Speaker 1: work and get better. Um. And I always knew at

1101
01:05:11,600 --> 01:05:14,120
Speaker 1: some point in time I was gonna take a fight.

1102
01:05:14,160 --> 01:05:16,360
Speaker 1: I just didn't know how it was gonna happen. You

1103
01:05:16,440 --> 01:05:18,720
Speaker 1: knew you. You knew that was something you were interested in.

1104
01:05:19,320 --> 01:05:21,840
Speaker 1: So going into it now because I've been around You've

1105
01:05:21,840 --> 01:05:23,560
Speaker 1: been around you with the shows and stuff like that,

1106
01:05:23,720 --> 01:05:26,680
Speaker 1: Like I could tell right now like you're not as

1107
01:05:26,720 --> 01:05:28,800
Speaker 1: like like I could tell you're getting ready to fight

1108
01:05:28,840 --> 01:05:30,440
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks, I could just tell. And I

1109
01:05:30,440 --> 01:05:32,520
Speaker 1: don't even know you that good, but just a little

1110
01:05:32,520 --> 01:05:34,640
Speaker 1: bit of it around you. I'm like, you have more

1111
01:05:34,640 --> 01:05:36,720
Speaker 1: of an edge on you right now. Yeah, I'm not

1112
01:05:36,760 --> 01:05:39,680
Speaker 1: gonna lie. Man, My my mentality has definitely changed over

1113
01:05:39,720 --> 01:05:41,600
Speaker 1: the last couple of months because fight is a whole

1114
01:05:41,600 --> 01:05:44,880
Speaker 1: different beast, right. So, um, you know when when people

1115
01:05:45,000 --> 01:05:46,640
Speaker 1: here about me fight, they say, oh man, you trying

1116
01:05:46,640 --> 01:05:49,840
Speaker 1: to fight? Like, no, you when you fight, you go.

1117
01:05:50,040 --> 01:05:52,440
Speaker 1: You make your decision that you make, that your life

1118
01:05:53,040 --> 01:05:54,680
Speaker 1: and that's it, you know. So now you know, I'm

1119
01:05:54,680 --> 01:05:57,200
Speaker 1: training five days a week, two to three hours a day,

1120
01:05:57,640 --> 01:05:59,680
Speaker 1: uh sometimes twis, depending on if I need to go

1121
01:06:00,080 --> 01:06:03,600
Speaker 1: work on certain things. But your mentality switches because you

1122
01:06:03,600 --> 01:06:05,480
Speaker 1: you get in his zone, just like I got on

1123
01:06:05,480 --> 01:06:07,360
Speaker 1: his ZWE on Saturday for them on Sunday for the

1124
01:06:07,440 --> 01:06:10,920
Speaker 1: four quarters. You you you are motherfucker. You want to

1125
01:06:10,960 --> 01:06:13,720
Speaker 1: go out there and rip everything open right and and

1126
01:06:13,760 --> 01:06:16,560
Speaker 1: now with me, it's it's I'm behind the curve and

1127
01:06:16,640 --> 01:06:19,040
Speaker 1: some technique stuff and I need a lot of work. Um.

1128
01:06:19,200 --> 01:06:22,840
Speaker 1: And and this was probably the fastest learner curve that

1129
01:06:22,880 --> 01:06:24,800
Speaker 1: I can go and do and still go out and

1130
01:06:24,840 --> 01:06:27,040
Speaker 1: have put myself in the best opportunity to win. So

1131
01:06:27,280 --> 01:06:30,400

1167
01:08:06,840 --> 01:08:09,640
Speaker 1: in the sport, you know, So I'm not I'm not

1168
01:08:09,680 --> 01:08:12,760
Speaker 1: twenty four starting or whatever. Um, so the recovery is

1169
01:08:12,800 --> 01:08:15,440
Speaker 1: more than more important anything. So whether it's not so

1170
01:08:15,520 --> 01:08:18,800

Speaker 1: y'all go you know either my warehouse office or whatever.

1174
01:08:27,680 --> 01:08:29,680
Speaker 1: I spent like three or four hours just checking up

1175
01:08:29,680 --> 01:08:31,880
Speaker 1: on that. Now even now, yeah yeah, even now? Does

1178
01:08:37,160 --> 01:08:39,759
Speaker 1: for real because one of the biggest things I noticed

1179
01:08:39,800 --> 01:08:42,040
Speaker 1: that those three hours that I spend in the gym,

1180
01:08:42,320 --> 01:08:46,680
Speaker 1: you really switch your mindset to to become very animalistic

1181
01:08:46,680 --> 01:08:48,800
Speaker 1: in a way a little bit. You know where you're

1182
01:08:48,840 --> 01:08:51,000
Speaker 1: able to as soon as you walk out, you become

1183
01:08:51,040 --> 01:08:52,840
Speaker 1: a different person. I go, I can go to set.

1184
01:08:53,240 --> 01:08:56,479
Speaker 1: It helps you, It does help you. Yeah, yeah, and

1185
01:08:56,560 --> 01:08:58,680
Speaker 1: I'm sure I think I think my coaches are a

1186
01:08:58,720 --> 01:09:01,360
Speaker 1: lot cheaper than therapy. You know what I'm saying. You know,

1187
01:09:01,439 --> 01:09:05,120
Speaker 1: for me, it really does really does help me. Um,

1188
01:09:05,160 --> 01:09:07,439
Speaker 1: you know, release a lot and I feel a lot

1189
01:09:07,479 --> 01:09:10,719
Speaker 1: different than walk out. And so I've only done about

1190

Speaker 1: They wanted me to have a real fight. So Paul Tyler,

1209
01:09:59,600 --> 01:10:01,960
Speaker 1: who was the head of over the Big b KFF,

1210
01:10:02,400 --> 01:10:04,160
Speaker 1: they was like, man, we want to give you to

1211
01:10:04,200 --> 01:10:05,920
Speaker 1: make sure you're going and see if that the first

1212
01:10:05,920 --> 01:10:08,000
Speaker 1: time out, so you can get some experience and then

1213
01:10:08,560 --> 01:10:10,439
Speaker 1: we'll see how I feel after this, because the fight

1214
01:10:10,479 --> 01:10:12,759
Speaker 1: game is different. Man, Like you're walking out of football,

1215
01:10:12,760 --> 01:10:14,960
Speaker 1: you walk out of seventy thousand people, but you got

1216
01:10:15,000 --> 01:10:17,800
Speaker 1: on help met. There's ten other guys on offense and

1217
01:10:17,880 --> 01:10:21,519
Speaker 1: defense other than yourself, and you make a mistake. You

1218
01:10:21,560 --> 01:10:23,280
Speaker 1: can like, hey man, that guy with the missed the block.

1219
01:10:23,400 --> 01:10:26,599
Speaker 1: You know, right, there's there's seventeen, there's a hundred other

1220
01:10:26,640 --> 01:10:30,479
Speaker 1: players planes, and there's and there's and there's ten other men. Right,

1221
01:10:30,560 --> 01:10:34,320
Speaker 1: So it's a team sport. It's a team sport with this, Um,

1222
01:10:34,360 --> 01:10:36,040
Speaker 1: you know, it's all on you. It's all on your

1223
01:10:36,080 --> 01:10:38,720
Speaker 1: training and some some block you miss block, miss right

1224
01:10:38,760 --> 01:10:41,599
Speaker 1: exactly and now you gotta come in because it ended

1225
01:10:41,720 --> 01:10:44,960
Speaker 1: very individual sport, which for me, man I I love

1226
01:10:45,320 --> 01:10:47,719
Speaker 1: to be honest. Um, don't get me wrong with playing

1227
01:10:47,760 --> 01:10:50,400
Speaker 1: for the organizations. Playing on the team sport, you you're

1228
01:10:50,400 --> 01:10:53,400
Speaker 1: always promoting the team. You always prowing your teammates. You know,

1229
01:10:53,479 --> 01:10:55,840
Speaker 1: we lost, we won or whatever it is, and this

1230
01:10:55,920 --> 01:10:58,960
Speaker 1: it's like it's on you. So, um, that's that's kind

1231
01:10:59,000 --> 01:11:01,200
Speaker 1: I'm having fun with that, right, Wow, man I can't

1232
01:11:01,200 --> 01:11:03,679
Speaker 1: wait to see you out there. Man, I cannot wait

1233
01:11:03,720 --> 01:11:06,919
Speaker 1: to see you out there. That's gonna be fucking nuts. Um.

1234
01:11:06,960 --> 01:11:10,719
Speaker 1: All right, before we get into football, more with fighting. Obviously,

1235
01:11:10,760 --> 01:11:14,160
Speaker 1: I'm assuming you saw the fight Saturday night, and I'm

1236
01:11:14,200 --> 01:11:17,080
Speaker 1: sure you probably talked about it on air. So now

1237
01:11:17,120 --> 01:11:20,240
Speaker 1: that we're free days away, what is your takeaway of

1238
01:11:20,240 --> 01:11:23,439
Speaker 1: of everything? First of all, the way that the night

1239
01:11:23,479 --> 01:11:27,080
Speaker 1: was so crazy because my guy, Derrick Lewis, that was nuts.

1240
01:11:27,560 --> 01:11:29,960
Speaker 1: That was like a Rocky movie. Oh yeah, no doubt.

1241
01:11:30,240 --> 01:11:34,240
Speaker 1: He's one of the most entertaining guys man. Like you know,

1242
01:11:34,479 --> 01:11:36,599
Speaker 1: I watched him a little bit and I knew who

1243
01:11:36,640 --> 01:11:38,880
Speaker 1: he was, but I wasn't like paying attention to us

1244
01:11:38,920 --> 01:11:40,680
Speaker 1: i G and some of the stuff he said. But

1245
01:11:41,320 --> 01:11:43,519
Speaker 1: what got me to follow him on i G was

1246
01:11:43,560 --> 01:11:46,200
Speaker 1: what he's said post. So I'm like this, this dude

1247
01:11:46,240 --> 01:11:49,040
Speaker 1: gotta be doing something like hilarious on his i G.

1248
01:11:49,160 --> 01:11:52,960
Speaker 1: I followed him and it was all like everything was classic. Um,

1249
01:11:53,040 --> 01:11:55,880
Speaker 1: And what about the the first of all the Connor

1250
01:11:55,880 --> 01:11:58,880
Speaker 1: could Be fight, the actual fight. What did you what

1251
01:11:58,960 --> 01:12:01,200
Speaker 1: did you think was gonna happened? I'm gonna be I'm

1252
01:12:01,240 --> 01:12:05,479
Speaker 1: ana brag shawan I predicted on record on Wax fourth

1253
01:12:05,560 --> 01:12:09,280
Speaker 1: round choke out by could be. Now, I didn't bet that.

1254
01:12:09,600 --> 01:12:12,400
Speaker 1: It's easy to talk, not bat but so what what

1255
01:12:12,439 --> 01:12:14,040
Speaker 1: did you think was gonna happen? And what would you

1256
01:12:14,040 --> 01:12:16,599
Speaker 1: take away? Just the fight the same the same did

1257
01:12:16,760 --> 01:12:19,240
Speaker 1: Really yeah, I thought that and I still do think

1258
01:12:19,240 --> 01:12:21,639
Speaker 1: that could be is the all around better fighter because

1259
01:12:21,640 --> 01:12:25,080
Speaker 1: he has grappling and you know, getting you on the ground. Um,

1260
01:12:25,160 --> 01:12:27,720
Speaker 1: and that if you know gil'connor in the past, his

1261
01:12:27,840 --> 01:12:31,200
Speaker 1: win in this u Stadmin has been questioned before. It's

1262
01:12:31,240 --> 01:12:33,679
Speaker 1: not the first time that's happened. So I always knew

1263
01:12:33,720 --> 01:12:35,800
Speaker 1: that the Connor didn't knock him out within those first

1264
01:12:35,800 --> 01:12:38,920
Speaker 1: two rounds or hurt him at least standing up, then

1265
01:12:38,960 --> 01:12:40,720
Speaker 1: he was gonna be in trouble and once could be

1266
01:12:40,920 --> 01:12:43,759
Speaker 1: started trading punches with him. That's what I really knew

1267
01:12:44,360 --> 01:12:47,160
Speaker 1: that Connor was, you know, you know, in an uphill

1268
01:12:47,200 --> 01:12:51,400
Speaker 1: battle because he is he's just he's just a class

1269
01:12:51,439 --> 01:12:54,160
Speaker 1: wrestling gets you on the ground, and he's just more experienced.

1270
01:12:54,200 --> 01:12:56,040
Speaker 1: But when he started walking towards him and he caught

1271
01:12:56,080 --> 01:12:58,360
Speaker 1: him with that right me too, it was kind of like,

1272
01:12:59,000 --> 01:13:01,920
Speaker 1: I'm going to your I'm comfortable with what you do best,

1273
01:13:02,160 --> 01:13:04,519
Speaker 1: and you're definitely not comfortable with what I do best.

1274
01:13:05,360 --> 01:13:07,519
Speaker 1: What what did you take away from the whole h

1275
01:13:08,040 --> 01:13:11,040
Speaker 1: the fucking melee? Because that was that was I mean, listen,

1276
01:13:11,080 --> 01:13:14,040
Speaker 1: you you've been called every single thing when you played,

1277
01:13:14,439 --> 01:13:17,000
Speaker 1: whether you're playing with the bills, with the I mean

1278
01:13:17,360 --> 01:13:19,360
Speaker 1: you got helmets on. It is different. What did you

1279
01:13:19,400 --> 01:13:22,360
Speaker 1: think of that? And my man run our test Metal

1280
01:13:22,360 --> 01:13:25,240
Speaker 1: World Peace. He's sitting at home, probably minding his business,

1281
01:13:25,280 --> 01:13:26,880
Speaker 1: and all of a sudden he's trending on Twitter like

1282
01:13:27,880 --> 01:13:31,040
Speaker 1: what did I do? Because because uh, metal World Peace

1283
01:13:31,080 --> 01:13:33,160
Speaker 1: Pool one of those bulls back in the day with

1284
01:13:33,200 --> 01:13:37,280
Speaker 1: him and Stephen Jackson. But um, you know it's it's

1285
01:13:37,400 --> 01:13:39,360
Speaker 1: and I don't know if you ever heard the what

1286
01:13:39,439 --> 01:13:41,600
Speaker 1: Connor said during the fight, It is just business, right

1287
01:13:41,640 --> 01:13:44,200
Speaker 1: do you ever seen this? Yeah, because it was that fake.

1288
01:13:44,320 --> 01:13:46,519
Speaker 1: I don't know if that was real or fake or whatever.

1289
01:13:46,600 --> 01:13:49,360
Speaker 1: But if it's real, I can understand what he was saying.

1290
01:13:49,479 --> 01:13:51,800
Speaker 1: You know the reason why M A and guys are

1291
01:13:51,800 --> 01:13:53,840
Speaker 1: getting paid. I'm not saying it the way they are

1292
01:13:54,000 --> 01:13:56,479
Speaker 1: just sayings couse o Connor, but it's the ability to

1293
01:13:56,560 --> 01:13:59,000
Speaker 1: be able to promote a fight. Yes, Um, and I

1294
01:13:59,040 --> 01:14:02,760
Speaker 1: think more than enough kind of crosses those lines. Like

1295
01:14:03,000 --> 01:14:04,720
Speaker 1: when you're promoting the fight, I think there's a couple

1296
01:14:04,720 --> 01:14:07,559
Speaker 1: of things that should be off limits, right the two

1297
01:14:07,600 --> 01:14:10,880
Speaker 1: things that he hit family and religion. Say whatever you

1298
01:14:10,920 --> 01:14:13,519
Speaker 1: want to about me, I don't care, but my family

1299
01:14:13,640 --> 01:14:15,360
Speaker 1: they're not gonna be in a cage with me. They

1300
01:14:15,439 --> 01:14:18,160
Speaker 1: got nothing to do with anything. Um. And so when

1301
01:14:18,160 --> 01:14:20,640
Speaker 1: you do that, then as personal, so as much as

1302
01:14:20,680 --> 01:14:23,000
Speaker 1: everybody's saying, like all he's done, he should have never

1303
01:14:23,040 --> 01:14:26,320
Speaker 1: did that. This man has such strong belief in his

1304
01:14:26,760 --> 01:14:31,479
Speaker 1: religion that it's almost like in his culture that's death.

1305
01:14:32,000 --> 01:14:37,080
Speaker 1: You're you're speaking, you're speaking about death, you know, and

1306
01:14:37,080 --> 01:14:39,320
Speaker 1: in life and death because you know he's willing to

1307
01:14:39,360 --> 01:14:42,040
Speaker 1: die force religion, there's noted, you know. So when you

1308
01:14:42,120 --> 01:14:44,920
Speaker 1: do that, it's hard to control. He's not clicking on.

1309
01:14:45,040 --> 01:14:46,800
Speaker 1: It's like, you know, what do you talk? This ain't

1310
01:14:46,800 --> 01:14:48,960
Speaker 1: ship talk like this ain't yeah this, this is not

1311
01:14:49,200 --> 01:14:51,679
Speaker 1: we're not promoting to fight anymore. We're this is something

1312
01:14:51,680 --> 01:14:54,160
Speaker 1: I want to do something more to you than it's

1313
01:14:54,200 --> 01:14:56,479
Speaker 1: just this fight. So I can't really put myself in

1314
01:14:56,520 --> 01:14:59,360
Speaker 1: his shoes to say that somebody my religion was as strong.

1315
01:14:59,760 --> 01:15:02,360
Speaker 1: It's his was that I wouldn't be jumping over the cage.

1316
01:15:02,360 --> 01:15:04,960
Speaker 1: To know. You gotta look at Dana White. Dania White

1317
01:15:05,000 --> 01:15:08,320
Speaker 1: also has a hand in this whole thing too, because

1318
01:15:09,920 --> 01:15:11,680
Speaker 1: and I and I and I used this because the

1319
01:15:12,040 --> 01:15:15,599
Speaker 1: UFC in the NFL are very getting very very closed

1320
01:15:15,720 --> 01:15:18,560
Speaker 1: as far as the way the organization and structure, and

1321
01:15:18,640 --> 01:15:21,479
Speaker 1: what I mean by that is the find because of

1322
01:15:21,479 --> 01:15:23,280
Speaker 1: the money is getting involved now, right. That's why the

1323
01:15:23,360 --> 01:15:26,439
Speaker 1: NFL and all these fines and and Colin Kaepernick and

1324
01:15:26,439 --> 01:15:29,440
Speaker 1: all this. The money is so big now from the sponsors,

1325
01:15:29,720 --> 01:15:35,439
Speaker 1: the contracts that everything is frowned upon if it's hurting

1326
01:15:35,439 --> 01:15:38,880
Speaker 1: the shield or you're hurting the brand of UFC. So

1327
01:15:39,360 --> 01:15:42,280
Speaker 1: once you start letting these guys keep kind of straddling

1328
01:15:42,280 --> 01:15:45,360
Speaker 1: of fence a little bit, and you let it go

1329
01:15:45,720 --> 01:15:48,639
Speaker 1: to the point where it's too far, you gotta that's

1330
01:15:48,680 --> 01:15:51,679
Speaker 1: something on YouTube. It's not just on those guys, it's

1331
01:15:51,680 --> 01:15:53,640
Speaker 1: something on them too that he has to put his

1332
01:15:53,640 --> 01:15:56,080
Speaker 1: foot down and say, listen, God, you do that, and

1333
01:15:56,120 --> 01:15:59,439
Speaker 1: you're automatically getting a year suspension no matter what. So

1334
01:15:59,520 --> 01:16:03,719
Speaker 1: once that happens, which it should now, which you should,

1335
01:16:03,760 --> 01:16:06,240
Speaker 1: Now you gotta be if you leave the cage to

1336
01:16:06,360 --> 01:16:09,160
Speaker 1: go kiss your your baby. If you leave the cage

1337
01:16:09,200 --> 01:16:12,360
Speaker 1: to kiss your wife, fine or suspension. Don't leave the

1338
01:16:12,360 --> 01:16:15,639
Speaker 1: fucking cage until you're sort of you're you're asked some

1339
01:16:15,800 --> 01:16:20,280
Speaker 1: sort of signals given, you can't climb over the fucking thing. Yeah, exactly, Yeah,

1340
01:16:20,280 --> 01:16:22,320
Speaker 1: because it's it's it's just not good, you know, because

1341
01:16:22,360 --> 01:16:24,880
Speaker 1: you think you could be there with your wife, you

1342
01:16:24,920 --> 01:16:27,320
Speaker 1: could be there with yourself, You could be in there,

1343
01:16:27,360 --> 01:16:29,400
Speaker 1: you could slip any anything could happen, and then the

1344
01:16:29,400 --> 01:16:32,360
Speaker 1: other people start thinking, they're you know, John Rambo and

1345
01:16:32,400 --> 01:16:34,720
Speaker 1: they're fighting. It could have been I mean, luckily it

1346
01:16:34,760 --> 01:16:36,840
Speaker 1: wasn't worse. Yeah it could have. It definitely could have

1347
01:16:36,880 --> 01:16:39,360
Speaker 1: been a lot worse. And not even just for could

1348
01:16:39,400 --> 01:16:41,800
Speaker 1: be but all the people that's there, right, You've got

1349
01:16:41,800 --> 01:16:43,880
Speaker 1: some other people that has nothing, have nothing to do

1350
01:16:43,960 --> 01:16:46,160
Speaker 1: with anything, who also is sitting in that front row

1351
01:16:46,880 --> 01:16:48,920
Speaker 1: that might take a punch or might take a show.

1352
01:16:49,520 --> 01:16:51,400
Speaker 1: Anything could happened. You know, you could be there on

1353
01:16:51,400 --> 01:16:53,599
Speaker 1: a date and you know someone could back up into

1354
01:16:53,600 --> 01:16:55,599
Speaker 1: your I mean it just takes anything, a big guy

1355
01:16:55,600 --> 01:16:57,840
Speaker 1: to back up into a woman which is not paying

1356
01:16:57,840 --> 01:17:01,160
Speaker 1: attention and anything. So for only it wasn't out of hand,

1357
01:17:01,280 --> 01:17:03,479
Speaker 1: but it was an exciting night. I mean, and and

1358
01:17:03,479 --> 01:17:05,439
Speaker 1: and it was just fun. And you know, I'm a

1359
01:17:05,520 --> 01:17:09,400
Speaker 1: Connor sort of like I love to hate him because

1360
01:17:09,400 --> 01:17:11,760
Speaker 1: obviously I respect him, but you know, it's like he

1361
01:17:12,240 --> 01:17:14,559
Speaker 1: wants that you either like ride or dive for Connor.

1362
01:17:14,920 --> 01:17:17,800
Speaker 1: And and he's one of the best in sports who's

1363
01:17:17,840 --> 01:17:20,240
Speaker 1: ever done. He stole Floyd's whole ship. No no, I

1364
01:17:20,240 --> 01:17:22,479
Speaker 1: mean he he talked itself unto a hundred million all

1365
01:17:22,479 --> 01:17:27,280
Speaker 1: the fight in boxing. No nobody else, no one else

1366
01:17:27,520 --> 01:17:29,479
Speaker 1: in the sport of m M A could have been

1367
01:17:29,520 --> 01:17:33,200
Speaker 1: able to do that. Not one person, not one. So

1368
01:17:33,280 --> 01:17:36,200
Speaker 1: you have to you know, as much as people hate him,

1369
01:17:36,200 --> 01:17:38,240
Speaker 1: which he doesn't mind it because it's it's almost a

1370
01:17:38,240 --> 01:17:40,719
Speaker 1: Floyd syndrome Floyd. I mean, you know at this point,

1371
01:17:40,960 --> 01:17:43,599
Speaker 1: people will come into the fight just to see Floyd

1372
01:17:43,640 --> 01:17:46,559
Speaker 1: lose because he's money made. He's shown flash of the

1373
01:17:46,560 --> 01:17:49,360
Speaker 1: money he's doing this. So once you take on that persona,

1374
01:17:50,040 --> 01:17:51,960
Speaker 1: then do you live up to it and you you

1375
01:17:52,000 --> 01:17:54,200
Speaker 1: make a living off of it because people will pay

1376
01:17:54,360 --> 01:17:57,000
Speaker 1: just to see you get your asking. Um, all right, NFL.

1377
01:17:57,120 --> 01:18:01,200
Speaker 1: First of all, your nickname was lights out in the

1378
01:18:01,280 --> 01:18:04,120
Speaker 1: generation that we're in a football now, that nickname wouldn't

1379
01:18:04,160 --> 01:18:07,519
Speaker 1: even been acceptable. No, you can't you can't call somebody

1380
01:18:07,600 --> 01:18:10,439
Speaker 1: lights out. And a linebacker maybe they could lights out

1381
01:18:10,439 --> 01:18:13,040
Speaker 1: if they're like, you know, like a fast wide receiver

1382
01:18:13,080 --> 01:18:15,080
Speaker 1: like yo, he runs so fast he puts the lights out.

1383
01:18:15,880 --> 01:18:17,639
Speaker 1: But did you ever think about like that wouldn't even

1384
01:18:17,640 --> 01:18:19,160
Speaker 1: be like could be like, no, you can't call that.

1385
01:18:19,400 --> 01:18:22,679
Speaker 1: All the time, I even felt for for really, um

1386
01:18:22,880 --> 01:18:25,679
Speaker 1: a short period of time, that the NFL was really

1387
01:18:25,720 --> 01:18:29,240
Speaker 1: just staying away from me in general and promoting anything

1388
01:18:29,280 --> 01:18:32,320
Speaker 1: that I did, um, because it lights out. I mean,

1389
01:18:32,680 --> 01:18:34,519
Speaker 1: the whole thing was knocking someone out. And then when

1390
01:18:34,520 --> 01:18:37,559
Speaker 1: you got all these cases and CT stuff coming up,

1391
01:18:38,080 --> 01:18:41,640
Speaker 1: you want to distance yourself as much as possible from

1392
01:18:41,680 --> 01:18:44,280
Speaker 1: anything involving lights out. That's it's also a big reason

1393
01:18:44,320 --> 01:18:47,200
Speaker 1: why why I'm fighting, you know, it really is because

1394
01:18:47,320 --> 01:18:49,479
Speaker 1: but just because of that, you know, um, I still

1395
01:18:49,560 --> 01:18:51,800
Speaker 1: I'm heavily involved with the charge. I still go to

1396
01:18:51,800 --> 01:18:54,280
Speaker 1: all the games and do a lot of work with them.

1397
01:18:54,280 --> 01:18:57,840
Speaker 1: But overall, the NFL, you want to you stepping away

1398
01:18:57,880 --> 01:19:00,400
Speaker 1: from anybody that was really put on a field, the

1399
01:19:00,439 --> 01:19:04,639
Speaker 1: calls concussions and that's crazy, man, because it's like when

1400
01:19:04,680 --> 01:19:07,080
Speaker 1: you're playing that was the culture. That was a culture

1401
01:19:07,760 --> 01:19:10,240
Speaker 1: is that was the culture, you know, Jack Lambers, and

1402
01:19:10,320 --> 01:19:13,200
Speaker 1: you can't blame you guys for playing in that culture,

1403
01:19:14,040 --> 01:19:15,400
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. And that's the way I

1404
01:19:15,439 --> 01:19:19,280
Speaker 1: was taught. I was was applauded and it was you know,

1405
01:19:19,320 --> 01:19:21,519
Speaker 1: and it wasn't that long ago, but you know, and

1406
01:19:21,560 --> 01:19:23,920
Speaker 1: it changed quick and great, it's changed, but it shouldn't

1407
01:19:23,960 --> 01:19:26,519
Speaker 1: be like you should have like, oh he was. It's

1408
01:19:26,560 --> 01:19:29,360
Speaker 1: like ship man, like you know, me and Joe Green,

1409
01:19:29,560 --> 01:19:31,719
Speaker 1: the funk that was that was part of the game.

1410
01:19:31,800 --> 01:19:34,560
Speaker 1: Then that was you know, like Lawrence Taylor like that

1411
01:19:34,840 --> 01:19:37,320
Speaker 1: was part of the game. The violence of it. And

1412
01:19:37,400 --> 01:19:40,400
Speaker 1: good it's changed people. That's crazy to hear that. They're

1413
01:19:40,439 --> 01:19:42,439
Speaker 1: they're sort of like, oh, well don't yeah, I don't.

1414
01:19:42,479 --> 01:19:44,200
Speaker 1: I don't know if that's still the cage. But you know,

1415
01:19:44,240 --> 01:19:47,400
Speaker 1: you gotta remember they they when they started taking away

1416
01:19:47,439 --> 01:19:50,800
Speaker 1: segments of what the what the the hard hit was

1417
01:19:52,640 --> 01:19:55,600
Speaker 1: jacked up, right, you know, jacked up I was that

1418
01:19:55,720 --> 01:19:57,840
Speaker 1: was my thing, right. I was looking to be on

1419
01:19:57,960 --> 01:19:59,519
Speaker 1: Jack deaf right, you know, I was trying to do

1420
01:19:59,560 --> 01:20:01,960
Speaker 1: my thing there. But when you when they take that

1421
01:20:02,000 --> 01:20:03,960
Speaker 1: away and they started doing all that, and really the

1422
01:20:04,320 --> 01:20:07,680
Speaker 1: probably the best part of my game is the physicality

1423
01:20:07,720 --> 01:20:09,960
Speaker 1: of the way I played it and how I got

1424
01:20:09,960 --> 01:20:13,240
Speaker 1: after people. Um, you know you when you got an

1425
01:20:13,280 --> 01:20:17,040
Speaker 1: organization or companies just stepping away from it, it's like, man,

1426
01:20:17,080 --> 01:20:21,479
Speaker 1: that's how I you know, and and it's totally different. Yeah,

1427
01:20:21,520 --> 01:20:23,599
Speaker 1: And when I walk in the streets where I'm going

1428
01:20:23,640 --> 01:20:25,719
Speaker 1: somewhere and I'm at event or whatever, I mean, eighty

1429
01:20:25,720 --> 01:20:27,479
Speaker 1: five percent of people call me lights out before they

1430
01:20:27,479 --> 01:20:29,799
Speaker 1: call me sean. You know, I hear lights out across

1431
01:20:29,960 --> 01:20:33,200
Speaker 1: like everywhere. So people loved it. But and I understand

1432
01:20:33,240 --> 01:20:35,559
Speaker 1: the NFL standpoint of just trying to in a sense,

1433
01:20:35,640 --> 01:20:38,920
Speaker 1: stay away from anything that celebrated. Can't you can't like

1434
01:20:39,040 --> 01:20:40,840
Speaker 1: frown upon it, like it's like, okay, this is the

1435
01:20:40,880 --> 01:20:43,040
Speaker 1: evolution of it. Can't be like people are like did

1436
01:20:43,080 --> 01:20:47,320
Speaker 1: something wrong. So it feels like it's sort of the

1437
01:20:47,400 --> 01:20:49,439
Speaker 1: guys are figuring out and the refs are figuring out

1438
01:20:49,520 --> 01:20:51,559
Speaker 1: the players and you know what I'm gonna And You've

1439
01:20:51,560 --> 01:20:54,200
Speaker 1: probably been asked the entire season and some of last year,

1440
01:20:54,800 --> 01:20:58,000
Speaker 1: what like, what what is your take on uh the

1441
01:20:58,080 --> 01:21:01,040
Speaker 1: NFL this season? You know, there's so many points. You

1442
01:21:01,080 --> 01:21:03,479
Speaker 1: have rookie quarterbacks and god bless them, you know they

1443
01:21:03,560 --> 01:21:06,160
Speaker 1: they but they're figuring it out. It seems like Warren

1444
01:21:06,240 --> 01:21:08,960
Speaker 1: sapp he calls it. He calls with the auto bonn

1445
01:21:09,080 --> 01:21:11,840
Speaker 1: up the middle, which was your fucking domain. So what

1446
01:21:12,000 --> 01:21:15,360
Speaker 1: is your whole take on the defense of handcuffs this

1447
01:21:15,360 --> 01:21:17,960
Speaker 1: this season and started sort of last season. I think

1448
01:21:17,960 --> 01:21:19,760
Speaker 1: that a lot of people need to understand this that

1449
01:21:20,240 --> 01:21:25,479
Speaker 1: the NFL they're they're very strategic in how they have

1450
01:21:25,520 --> 01:21:27,120
Speaker 1: a plan on how they want to move forward with

1451
01:21:27,200 --> 01:21:31,080
Speaker 1: business right on and off the field. Um, those couple

1452
01:21:31,080 --> 01:21:34,439
Speaker 1: of hits that Clay Matthews had was such bullshit, right

1453
01:21:34,520 --> 01:21:37,400
Speaker 1: it was. It was total It's total crop. But I'm

1454
01:21:37,400 --> 01:21:40,920
Speaker 1: looking at the game and saying, Okay, the NFL they're

1455
01:21:40,920 --> 01:21:44,439
Speaker 1: not stupid, they've been they know what the hell they're doing. Right, Um,

1456
01:21:44,600 --> 01:21:47,640
Speaker 1: people everybody's watching the game also know that. Come on

1457
01:21:47,680 --> 01:21:49,519
Speaker 1: with god, this is even people who know who don't

1458
01:21:49,560 --> 01:21:51,040
Speaker 1: even know anything about the game. They're looking at that

1459
01:21:51,120 --> 01:21:53,880
Speaker 1: hitt and saying, what do they do wrong? If you

1460
01:21:54,000 --> 01:21:57,760
Speaker 1: do that to one of the biggest guys, right, Clay Matthews,

1461
01:21:58,720 --> 01:22:01,479
Speaker 1: the you know, on on a on a big televised game.

1462
01:22:01,760 --> 01:22:05,120
Speaker 1: You're almost setting a tone for everyone else around the league.

1463
01:22:05,840 --> 01:22:09,519
Speaker 1: So it's not necessarily about them coming out to Clay Matthews. Right, No,

1464
01:22:09,600 --> 01:22:11,840
Speaker 1: I don't think so. No, they're not coming. He's the

1465
01:22:11,840 --> 01:22:13,560
Speaker 1: perfect guy to come, and he's the perfect guy to

1466
01:22:13,600 --> 01:22:16,559
Speaker 1: come to White dude. He got the long hair. He's

1467
01:22:16,600 --> 01:22:19,439
Speaker 1: a clean player, right, he's known as a clean player. Yeah,

1468
01:22:19,479 --> 01:22:21,520
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, it's I don't think any linebackers

1469
01:22:21,560 --> 01:22:24,400
Speaker 1: totally clean. But for the most part, he's not perfect.

1470
01:22:24,439 --> 01:22:29,120
Speaker 1: He's not perfect. He doesn't have incidents. Um so yeah,

1471
01:22:29,160 --> 01:22:30,800
Speaker 1: So it's like he's the perfect guy to make an

1472
01:22:30,800 --> 01:22:32,920
Speaker 1: example of, right, and and that's how you do it.

1473
01:22:33,000 --> 01:22:36,000
Speaker 1: You it's like that for that, it's like that for contracts.

1474
01:22:36,120 --> 01:22:39,800
Speaker 1: I mean I used that as a comparison to DA's

1475
01:22:39,800 --> 01:22:42,880
Speaker 1: Bryant being on the street right now, right, it ain't

1476
01:22:42,920 --> 01:22:44,519
Speaker 1: It ain't nothing to do with this. We all know

1477
01:22:44,560 --> 01:22:47,000
Speaker 1: that Davis Brian can play. But if you think you're

1478
01:22:47,000 --> 01:22:49,160
Speaker 1: gonna get you know, turned down the deal from the

1479
01:22:49,760 --> 01:22:52,599
Speaker 1: Ravens and all these other people because you're worth this amount, Okay,

1480
01:22:52,600 --> 01:22:54,400
Speaker 1: we're gonna sit you on the street until the middle

1481
01:22:54,439 --> 01:22:57,800
Speaker 1: of the year. So Okay before we get to desk,

1482
01:22:57,840 --> 01:22:59,840
Speaker 1: because I was gonna ask you that, how is this

1483
01:23:00,040 --> 01:23:03,400
Speaker 1: gonna figure itself out? In terms like is this the

1484
01:23:03,400 --> 01:23:08,960
Speaker 1: new NFL? Fifty forty seven points? Rookie quarterbacks could come

1485
01:23:09,000 --> 01:23:11,080
Speaker 1: in there and they don't get touched, you know, because

1486
01:23:11,240 --> 01:23:14,320
Speaker 1: I mean, listen, this kid, Mahomes, He's obviously talented. So

1487
01:23:14,360 --> 01:23:15,840
Speaker 1: it has to do a lot with this talent. They're

1488
01:23:15,920 --> 01:23:19,160
Speaker 1: kind of offensive timing all these different things. But as

1489
01:23:19,160 --> 01:23:22,040
Speaker 1: a linebacker, you're like, I mean, Vaughan tried to get him,

1490
01:23:22,040 --> 01:23:25,120
Speaker 1: he just got away. But like, is this the NFL?

1491
01:23:25,200 --> 01:23:28,080
Speaker 1: Like they're they're breaking touchdown records, scoring records. Is this

1492
01:23:28,120 --> 01:23:29,840
Speaker 1: the way it's gonna go forward? It's kind of like

1493
01:23:29,840 --> 01:23:32,320
Speaker 1: what happened with the NBA a few years ago, where

1494
01:23:32,400 --> 01:23:36,000
Speaker 1: you can't touch them, you can't hand check them, you know,

1495
01:23:36,040 --> 01:23:38,800
Speaker 1: you you know, and and the not that Steph and

1496
01:23:38,880 --> 01:23:41,439
Speaker 1: these guys couldn't play back then, but they could flourish now.

1497
01:23:42,040 --> 01:23:45,000
Speaker 1: So is this the way it's gonna be? Yeah, no question. Um. Well,

1498
01:23:45,880 --> 01:23:47,760
Speaker 1: I mean I'm fortunate enough to spend a lot of

1499
01:23:47,800 --> 01:23:50,280
Speaker 1: time outside the country, Like I travel right, I'm over

1500
01:23:50,320 --> 01:23:53,080
Speaker 1: in Europe, a lot of South America, everywhere else, And

1501
01:23:53,120 --> 01:23:56,360
Speaker 1: a lot of these people don't understand the game of football.

1502
01:23:56,720 --> 01:23:59,479
Speaker 1: They don't know the rules, they don't understand the concept

1503
01:23:59,479 --> 01:24:02,800
Speaker 1: behind it. That is really a chess match. They don't

1504
01:24:02,800 --> 01:24:05,120
Speaker 1: get it. One thing they do understand is points. The

1505
01:24:05,240 --> 01:24:07,160
Speaker 1: understan it's easy to talk about a touchdown. I don't

1506
01:24:07,160 --> 01:24:10,320
Speaker 1: care where you at. That's why NBA is much bigger

1507
01:24:10,400 --> 01:24:14,040
Speaker 1: internationally because it's exciting. They're they're dunking, they're shooting three

1508
01:24:14,040 --> 01:24:17,760
Speaker 1: points and you know, hundred and twenty points scored. That's

1509
01:24:17,800 --> 01:24:20,599
Speaker 1: exciting to people, and it gets more fans to be involved.

1510
01:24:21,120 --> 01:24:23,000
Speaker 1: You know, no one wants to see attend the six game.

1511
01:24:23,520 --> 01:24:27,600
Speaker 1: Attend the six game, and us as as you know,

1512
01:24:27,720 --> 01:24:30,200
Speaker 1: football fans, and and the knowledge that we have of

1513
01:24:30,240 --> 01:24:33,000
Speaker 1: the game, knowing that those those two teams just got

1514
01:24:33,040 --> 01:24:35,639
Speaker 1: after it right. You know, the defense has played great.

1515
01:24:36,080 --> 01:24:38,320
Speaker 1: They were strapping guys up on both sides of the ball.

1516
01:24:38,439 --> 01:24:41,920
Speaker 1: We think it's amazing. Right outside the country, it's like

1517
01:24:42,240 --> 01:24:45,360
Speaker 1: I'm not watching it's born. You know, it's boring. They

1518
01:24:45,400 --> 01:24:49,880
Speaker 1: don't get it. So by them doing that, it expands

1519
01:24:49,960 --> 01:24:54,280
Speaker 1: the game much further than just the United States. So

1520
01:24:54,360 --> 01:24:56,240
Speaker 1: that to me is why you know, all the games

1521
01:24:56,240 --> 01:24:57,840
Speaker 1: coming up in London, and you know, I've got a

1522
01:24:57,920 --> 01:24:59,720
Speaker 1: chance to go over there. And a lot of my

1523
01:25:00,200 --> 01:25:03,720
Speaker 1: buddies play soccer in other countries and they you know,

1524
01:25:03,760 --> 01:25:07,479
Speaker 1: they could call it the real their football, but it's

1525
01:25:07,520 --> 01:25:10,880
Speaker 1: not football. American football isn't exciting to them until they

1526
01:25:10,920 --> 01:25:15,759
Speaker 1: see a touchdown because everyone understands that. Um, Okay des Bryant,

1527
01:25:16,560 --> 01:25:20,160
Speaker 1: obviously he could play football. There's no injury. What do

1528
01:25:20,200 --> 01:25:23,080
Speaker 1: you think it's gonna wint? Like this whole thing about Dallas.

1529
01:25:24,120 --> 01:25:26,960
Speaker 1: He can never go back there. He can never go back.

1530
01:25:26,960 --> 01:25:28,720
Speaker 1: I mean that would be fucked up because that would

1531
01:25:28,720 --> 01:25:31,439
Speaker 1: be like yo, I mean he can never go back there, right, No,

1532
01:25:31,800 --> 01:25:33,439
Speaker 1: he can never go back there. And this is I mean,

1533
01:25:33,880 --> 01:25:36,479
Speaker 1: this is why I agree you want to I understand

1534
01:25:36,560 --> 01:25:39,040
Speaker 1: the organization right when you when guys leave there a

1535
01:25:39,080 --> 01:25:41,479
Speaker 1: little bitter you got cut for whatever reason that you're

1536
01:25:41,479 --> 01:25:44,519
Speaker 1: not performing, your injury or whatever the deal is, that

1537
01:25:44,760 --> 01:25:48,439
Speaker 1: is a part of it. One thing you can't stomach

1538
01:25:48,800 --> 01:25:52,400
Speaker 1: is your teammates saying things about you on the way

1539
01:25:52,400 --> 01:25:55,639
Speaker 1: out the door. You can't. That's the part that who

1540
01:25:55,680 --> 01:25:58,280
Speaker 1: we said things? I think Sean Lee it was it

1541
01:25:58,320 --> 01:25:59,840
Speaker 1: was a couple of couple of guys that came out

1542
01:25:59,880 --> 01:26:03,920
Speaker 1: with very vocal about you know, during his departure. You

1543
01:26:04,000 --> 01:26:06,680
Speaker 1: can understand the organization putting out because it got a

1544
01:26:06,720 --> 01:26:09,559
Speaker 1: leak from somewhere that he's older, he's injured, he's not

1545
01:26:09,600 --> 01:26:11,840
Speaker 1: as good as he was. You know that that those

1546
01:26:11,880 --> 01:26:14,519
Speaker 1: type of things maybe coming from the organization. You can understand.

1547
01:26:14,560 --> 01:26:17,559
Speaker 1: You can get that. What you can't understand is a

1548
01:26:17,640 --> 01:26:20,559
Speaker 1: guy coming out or guys you got your brothers who

1549
01:26:20,600 --> 01:26:22,640
Speaker 1: you bland with and when the training can't with and

1550
01:26:22,720 --> 01:26:25,120
Speaker 1: went to wool where for years, come out and say

1551
01:26:25,200 --> 01:26:27,240
Speaker 1: these things about you. Same thing with Levian Bill. I

1552
01:26:27,280 --> 01:26:29,280
Speaker 1: don't think Levian Bell can go back in the locker

1553
01:26:29,400 --> 01:26:31,840
Speaker 1: room with the Steelers. Is he gonna go back? Because

1554
01:26:31,840 --> 01:26:34,040
Speaker 1: now everybody all right, say now everybody, this is like

1555
01:26:34,080 --> 01:26:36,760
Speaker 1: my my fantasy football world, so my my whole thing

1556
01:26:36,840 --> 01:26:39,880
Speaker 1: is fantasy. So why everybody is like the guy who

1557
01:26:40,160 --> 01:26:42,200
Speaker 1: drafted Levion Bell in the first round, He's like, yeah,

1558
01:26:42,200 --> 01:26:44,519
Speaker 1: he's coming back, And I'm like, you fucked up? Is

1559
01:26:44,560 --> 01:26:46,680
Speaker 1: Levian Bell come back to Steelers? I don't think so,

1560
01:26:47,320 --> 01:26:49,519
Speaker 1: I really don't, and I don't see how it can work.

1561
01:26:49,560 --> 01:26:52,080
Speaker 1: It just can't work because you know why. It's it's

1562
01:26:52,120 --> 01:26:56,320
Speaker 1: too much static in the locker room after that resentment, right, well, yes,

1563
01:26:56,640 --> 01:27:00,640
Speaker 1: not not even just resent it. You gotta pounces. Locker's

1564
01:27:00,680 --> 01:27:02,840
Speaker 1: probably a few lockers down. I don't know exactly where,

1565
01:27:02,840 --> 01:27:06,000
Speaker 1: but probably somewhere in the vicinity of Levian Belle Pouncy

1566
01:27:06,320 --> 01:27:10,480
Speaker 1: ripped him and and other offensive a linement ripped him

1567
01:27:10,640 --> 01:27:12,559
Speaker 1: the as the same guys. There's the same guys that

1568
01:27:12,760 --> 01:27:16,200
Speaker 1: he bought a rolex for for them, you know, doing

1569
01:27:16,240 --> 01:27:18,880
Speaker 1: their job and and really the reason why they made him,

1570
01:27:19,240 --> 01:27:21,439
Speaker 1: you know, in a way, now you got to go

1571
01:27:21,479 --> 01:27:23,880
Speaker 1: back in the locker room. I'd rather a guy called

1572
01:27:23,960 --> 01:27:26,040
Speaker 1: me up and tell me, you know what, this is

1573
01:27:26,040 --> 01:27:28,640
Speaker 1: what I feel about you, because once you go to

1574
01:27:28,720 --> 01:27:31,920
Speaker 1: the media and start talking this way, now you made

1575
01:27:31,920 --> 01:27:34,599
Speaker 1: it personal and it got nothing to do with money

1576
01:27:34,600 --> 01:27:36,840
Speaker 1: at this point. It got something to do that you

1577
01:27:36,880 --> 01:27:40,000
Speaker 1: don't like him because they didn't do this when Antonio

1578
01:27:40,080 --> 01:27:44,240
Speaker 1: wanted his money, No no one complained, No, no one complained,

1579
01:27:44,439 --> 01:27:47,080
Speaker 1: you know, no nobody said anything. And even now that

1580
01:27:47,240 --> 01:27:50,599
Speaker 1: still when Antonio Brown, there's some turmoil there. There's some

1581
01:27:50,680 --> 01:27:52,840
Speaker 1: term termo. Now it depends on if he's catching the

1582
01:27:52,880 --> 01:27:54,960
Speaker 1: ball or not. If he's getting if he's playing well.

1583
01:27:54,960 --> 01:27:56,880
Speaker 1: If he's playing well, it's gonna die down a little bit.

1584
01:27:56,880 --> 01:27:59,400
Speaker 1: If he's not getting the ball playing well, then it's

1585
01:27:59,800 --> 01:28:03,960
Speaker 1: through the roof. If I'm Levian Bell, there's no way

1586
01:28:04,439 --> 01:28:08,240
Speaker 1: I'm going back there again because I know how my brothers,

1587
01:28:09,080 --> 01:28:12,960
Speaker 1: my family, how they feel about me, So I can't

1588
01:28:12,960 --> 01:28:16,559
Speaker 1: go out there. And because football is very emotional. Yeah,

1589
01:28:16,640 --> 01:28:19,080
Speaker 1: it's not like basketball. Basketball, you can go three four teams.

1590
01:28:19,120 --> 01:28:20,479
Speaker 1: You go out there and you know you're gonna put

1591
01:28:20,560 --> 01:28:22,200
Speaker 1: up your average points per game, and you're going and

1592
01:28:22,320 --> 01:28:24,160
Speaker 1: you got a system or whatever, and you got a

1593
01:28:24,280 --> 01:28:26,640
Speaker 1: job to do with football. Man, you gotta when you

1594
01:28:26,680 --> 01:28:28,280
Speaker 1: have two minutes left in the fourth quarter, you gotta

1595
01:28:28,320 --> 01:28:30,760
Speaker 1: lay it out on the line, and you gotta your

1596
01:28:30,840 --> 01:28:32,479
Speaker 1: risk is hurt and your lord back because you've got

1597
01:28:32,600 --> 01:28:34,559
Speaker 1: nail to your back to play before. But your guys

1598
01:28:34,640 --> 01:28:37,799
Speaker 1: need you. You you'll do something just for your teammates

1599
01:28:37,800 --> 01:28:39,880
Speaker 1: because you know they need you. Now. If you get

1600
01:28:39,920 --> 01:28:42,880
Speaker 1: in that situation this time, you know Errol Thomas right,

1601
01:28:43,280 --> 01:28:47,240
Speaker 1: Arrol Thomas said, if he got a fingernail chip, his

1602
01:28:47,320 --> 01:28:50,519
Speaker 1: fingernails hurt, he wasn't practice it. There He's doing that

1603
01:28:50,600 --> 01:28:53,240
Speaker 1: because not only the organization don't want you're there, but

1604
01:28:53,320 --> 01:28:56,200
Speaker 1: you might not be there anyway. So Levian Belle, come

1605
01:28:56,240 --> 01:28:58,200
Speaker 1: back in the building and you already know you some

1606
01:28:58,240 --> 01:29:01,280
Speaker 1: of your teammates don't like you. The organization, you know,

1607
01:29:01,400 --> 01:29:04,760
Speaker 1: don't think too highly of It' not paying you. So

1608
01:29:04,960 --> 01:29:06,120
Speaker 1: what what do you? What do you gonna go out

1609
01:29:06,160 --> 01:29:07,920
Speaker 1: there lay on the line? So what is going to

1610
01:29:08,000 --> 01:29:10,200
Speaker 1: be the end result with Levy on Bell? I mean,

1611
01:29:10,760 --> 01:29:13,760
Speaker 1: obviously everybody wants their money and everything. I don't care

1612
01:29:13,800 --> 01:29:16,960
Speaker 1: if you're working it its Starbucks, a copy company, and

1613
01:29:16,960 --> 01:29:19,960
Speaker 1: if you're the best person there. You mean he's it's

1614
01:29:20,000 --> 01:29:24,200
Speaker 1: like Levy on Bells top three running back. I mean,

1615
01:29:24,280 --> 01:29:29,000
Speaker 1: so is he getting fucked? Yeah, no doubt. I mean

1616
01:29:29,080 --> 01:29:31,080
Speaker 1: he's top I think we like now it's become this

1617
01:29:31,120 --> 01:29:33,840
Speaker 1: guy Levy on Bell. But it's like on a football field,

1618
01:29:33,840 --> 01:29:39,120
Speaker 1: this guy is ridiculous. Your football is such a performance sport, right,

1619
01:29:39,240 --> 01:29:42,160
Speaker 1: it is nothing guarantee you get paid off of your performance.

1620
01:29:42,680 --> 01:29:45,559
Speaker 1: You go on perform, you're supposed to get paid because

1621
01:29:45,560 --> 01:29:47,400
Speaker 1: the game is so short. So you go out there,

1622
01:29:47,439 --> 01:29:49,479
Speaker 1: layd online, you bust your ass, you do everything you're

1623
01:29:49,479 --> 01:29:52,880
Speaker 1: supposed to do and you're supposed to get rewarded for it. Well,

1624
01:29:52,920 --> 01:29:56,280
Speaker 1: that don't happen. Like I said, it's a very physical, barbaric,

1625
01:29:57,360 --> 01:30:00,320
Speaker 1: violent sport. Was that not Once that's not happy, you

1626
01:30:00,360 --> 01:30:04,320
Speaker 1: start to feel unappreciated. In any other sports, you start

1627
01:30:04,320 --> 01:30:06,960
Speaker 1: to feeling unappreciated. You can live with that because it's

1628
01:30:06,960 --> 01:30:09,280
Speaker 1: not as hard on your body. You don't have to

1629
01:30:09,320 --> 01:30:12,360
Speaker 1: go through it physically. When you're feeling under you know,

1630
01:30:12,439 --> 01:30:16,280
Speaker 1: not appreciated in the organization, and you're coming out and

1631
01:30:16,320 --> 01:30:18,760
Speaker 1: now you need to fight your way for another couple

1632
01:30:18,760 --> 01:30:20,680
Speaker 1: of yards and your tide as hell, you need to

1633
01:30:20,720 --> 01:30:23,800
Speaker 1: line back up again. You're gonna start thinking, huh, you know,

1634
01:30:24,080 --> 01:30:26,240
Speaker 1: I'm gonna I might not be here anyway. If something's

1635
01:30:26,280 --> 01:30:28,400
Speaker 1: a little hurt, a little sore, maybe I might take

1636
01:30:28,439 --> 01:30:31,559
Speaker 1: care of that first. So that's that's I think. If

1637
01:30:31,600 --> 01:30:34,160
Speaker 1: he if he does, which I highly doubt, if he

1638
01:30:34,240 --> 01:30:36,479
Speaker 1: does go back in the locker room, it's gonna be

1639
01:30:36,520 --> 01:30:41,080
Speaker 1: a very errow Errol thom is like situation, right, So,

1640
01:30:41,080 --> 01:30:43,320
Speaker 1: so I mean, you know, guys in the league, you're

1641
01:30:43,320 --> 01:30:46,360
Speaker 1: in the media now, Sean, what is your prediction if

1642
01:30:46,400 --> 01:30:48,439
Speaker 1: you have to make a prediction for Dez Bryant, What

1643
01:30:48,600 --> 01:30:51,840
Speaker 1: is your prediction for levying about just prediction Dad's I

1644
01:30:51,880 --> 01:30:54,160
Speaker 1: assume that Dads will get picked up in the next

1645
01:30:55,120 --> 01:30:57,520
Speaker 1: one or three weeks. And who do you think by?

1646
01:30:58,320 --> 01:31:00,720
Speaker 1: Who can you see that could use it as I can.

1647
01:31:00,880 --> 01:31:02,839
Speaker 1: I can see him still being able to go to Cleveland,

1648
01:31:03,400 --> 01:31:06,360
Speaker 1: you know, Christ That's like the place I see him

1649
01:31:06,360 --> 01:31:08,720
Speaker 1: still being able to go to Cleveland. Um, you know

1650
01:31:09,400 --> 01:31:11,479
Speaker 1: the forty nine is probably can use his help right

1651
01:31:11,520 --> 01:31:15,320
Speaker 1: now with what h Garobolo down. They need somebody out there.

1652
01:31:15,360 --> 01:31:18,840
Speaker 1: He has to go to a team that doesn't need

1653
01:31:18,920 --> 01:31:22,240
Speaker 1: to actually really rely on him, but they can benefit.

1654
01:31:22,280 --> 01:31:24,680
Speaker 1: But they can benefit because I don't I don't know

1655
01:31:24,720 --> 01:31:26,519
Speaker 1: where he's at physically right now to be a to

1656
01:31:26,560 --> 01:31:28,240
Speaker 1: go out and be the dead brand that we we've

1657
01:31:28,280 --> 01:31:31,080
Speaker 1: seen for for years. It happens. It the time and

1658
01:31:31,120 --> 01:31:34,040
Speaker 1: injuries and all the pounding. It catches up to you that,

1659
01:31:34,120 --> 01:31:36,240
Speaker 1: I mean, you can't perform. It just means that you're

1660
01:31:36,280 --> 01:31:38,320
Speaker 1: not the player that you were. Doesnt means you're not

1661
01:31:38,800 --> 01:31:41,639
Speaker 1: a you know of a player of a high caliber

1662
01:31:41,800 --> 01:31:44,559
Speaker 1: for them. He just can't go into a locker room

1663
01:31:44,600 --> 01:31:47,800
Speaker 1: that's already fragile, right, I got you and what is

1664
01:31:47,800 --> 01:31:51,679
Speaker 1: your prediction for Levian Levian, I think that, um, it'll

1665
01:31:51,720 --> 01:31:53,679
Speaker 1: be a couple of picks and a player or something

1666
01:31:53,680 --> 01:31:55,920
Speaker 1: like that. They need to get something for him, right.

1667
01:31:56,680 --> 01:31:58,960
Speaker 1: I don't see him going back. You know, it's just

1668
01:31:59,000 --> 01:32:02,280
Speaker 1: too much going on, Gonna be too much commotion. You

1669
01:32:02,360 --> 01:32:05,080
Speaker 1: gotta if something happens now, they gotta fix the problem.

1670
01:32:05,160 --> 01:32:07,280
Speaker 1: Not even getting him back into the system, forget that,

1671
01:32:07,280 --> 01:32:09,040
Speaker 1: that's easy. You know, he's gonna come back in. They're

1672
01:32:09,040 --> 01:32:12,080
Speaker 1: gonna be a total rock and and and perform. They're

1673
01:32:12,080 --> 01:32:14,640
Speaker 1: gonna have to mend what's going on that locker room,

1674
01:32:14,760 --> 01:32:18,240
Speaker 1: which it's already crazy there right now. Anyway, it's already

1675
01:32:18,320 --> 01:32:20,559
Speaker 1: you know, all over the place. You had Levan bail

1676
01:32:20,640 --> 01:32:23,519
Speaker 1: back in the mix. Whs already happened. Now you've got

1677
01:32:23,520 --> 01:32:26,120
Speaker 1: a real problem. Yeah, I agree. Um, all right, I

1678
01:32:26,200 --> 01:32:28,840
Speaker 1: want to quickly talk about your career and and just

1679
01:32:28,920 --> 01:32:31,519
Speaker 1: like the beginning. First of all, my first question is

1680
01:32:31,520 --> 01:32:34,639
Speaker 1: is Philip Rivers one of the like a guy who's

1681
01:32:34,680 --> 01:32:39,000
Speaker 1: like keeps going, keeps doing this thing. I've always liked

1682
01:32:39,040 --> 01:32:42,280
Speaker 1: Philip Rivers just as a player. What was he like?

1683
01:32:42,320 --> 01:32:44,920
Speaker 1: He doesn't talk as much as he used to back

1684
01:32:44,960 --> 01:32:47,000
Speaker 1: in the days. You were in his draft with Elie,

1685
01:32:47,400 --> 01:32:49,000
Speaker 1: so you you were there when he was like he

1686
01:32:49,040 --> 01:32:51,120
Speaker 1: would be yapping. He was like almost like a wide

1687
01:32:51,160 --> 01:32:55,800
Speaker 1: receiver like you normally don't see quarterbacks talking ship the

1688
01:32:55,840 --> 01:32:58,840
Speaker 1: way he used to talk ship. What what was it

1689
01:32:58,920 --> 01:33:02,120
Speaker 1: like playing with the revers and what was he talking about?

1690
01:33:02,400 --> 01:33:04,320
Speaker 1: Like was and he's like like a real sort of

1691
01:33:04,360 --> 01:33:07,160
Speaker 1: like a religious guy, was the person when he's talking ship. Never,

1692
01:33:07,240 --> 01:33:08,840
Speaker 1: I couldn't get him a curse to save my life.

1693
01:33:08,840 --> 01:33:11,320
Speaker 1: Almost did one time, but that was it. Well to

1694
01:33:11,439 --> 01:33:13,080
Speaker 1: go back because I went to the University of Maryland

1695
01:33:13,520 --> 01:33:16,960
Speaker 1: and Phillip with NC State, so we played each other. Never.

1696
01:33:17,000 --> 01:33:18,439
Speaker 1: He never beat me while I was in school, by

1697
01:33:18,439 --> 01:33:21,160
Speaker 1: the way, but I didn't care ful Phillip too much either.

1698
01:33:21,439 --> 01:33:23,479
Speaker 1: I didn't like him. I thought the same thing everybody

1699
01:33:23,520 --> 01:33:26,640
Speaker 1: else does. In fact, one of his last games, um,

1700
01:33:27,120 --> 01:33:28,840
Speaker 1: I hit him in the end zone. I think it

1701
01:33:28,880 --> 01:33:30,400
Speaker 1: was one of the last places of the game of

1702
01:33:30,479 --> 01:33:32,880
Speaker 1: his career. I hit him in the end zone. As

1703
01:33:32,880 --> 01:33:35,000
Speaker 1: I was getting up off of him, he like kind

1704
01:33:35,000 --> 01:33:37,120
Speaker 1: of twist my ankle a little bit, like pulled pulled

1705
01:33:37,160 --> 01:33:39,759
Speaker 1: on me as I was getting up, and he squared

1706
01:33:39,840 --> 01:33:41,840
Speaker 1: up with me. In the end zone. So I'm like,

1707
01:33:41,840 --> 01:33:46,840
Speaker 1: hold on, what quarterback squares up with anybody in the

1708
01:33:46,920 --> 01:33:49,000
Speaker 1: end zone? So I I it turned a little bait.

1709
01:33:49,000 --> 01:33:51,320
Speaker 1: I got more respect for him. He was he was

1710
01:33:51,360 --> 01:33:53,920
Speaker 1: dead assid. He was dead ass. He wanted you know,

1711
01:33:53,960 --> 01:33:57,599
Speaker 1: he wanted to action for sure. But you know, fast

1712
01:33:57,640 --> 01:34:01,040
Speaker 1: forwarded me being drafted by the chart in two thousand five.

1713
01:34:01,080 --> 01:34:03,160
Speaker 1: I think he was there to two years before I

1714
01:34:03,200 --> 01:34:06,760
Speaker 1: got there. Um, and I got around him, and I

1715
01:34:06,800 --> 01:34:09,800
Speaker 1: was like, wow, this guy is incredible. Man. I've never

1716
01:34:09,840 --> 01:34:14,200
Speaker 1: seen anybody more passionate, emotional and will do anything for

1717
01:34:14,320 --> 01:34:17,680
Speaker 1: his teammates. And then everything that I thought about him

1718
01:34:17,920 --> 01:34:22,439
Speaker 1: quickly switched. Philip is the biggest competitor of anybody I've

1719
01:34:22,439 --> 01:34:24,479
Speaker 1: ever been around in my entire life. He wants to

1720
01:34:24,560 --> 01:34:27,800
Speaker 1: win when when always win? And meaning what why why

1721
01:34:28,200 --> 01:34:32,400
Speaker 1: we articulate that specifically what you know? I give example,

1722
01:34:32,400 --> 01:34:34,559
Speaker 1: when the year I think it was two thousand seven,

1723
01:34:34,720 --> 01:34:37,200
Speaker 1: we started off one in three, Um, you know, we

1724
01:34:37,240 --> 01:34:39,439
Speaker 1: had it. He called a team meeting and kicked coaches out,

1725
01:34:40,000 --> 01:34:42,839
Speaker 1: and he gave a speech man that turned off season around.

1726
01:34:43,360 --> 01:34:45,519
Speaker 1: He gave a speech to all of us that turned out,

1727
01:34:45,600 --> 01:34:48,200
Speaker 1: that turned off season around. Um, and if it was

1728
01:34:48,320 --> 01:34:49,960
Speaker 1: for him, I don't think we finished up thirteen and

1729
01:34:50,040 --> 01:34:53,960
Speaker 1: three or whatever it was that year. Because of his leadership,

1730
01:34:55,280 --> 01:34:58,479
Speaker 1: because of his respect level, you knew that you were

1731
01:34:58,520 --> 01:35:01,479
Speaker 1: going to get everything out of Philip that you possibly could.

1732
01:35:01,520 --> 01:35:04,680
Speaker 1: It was nothing he was gonna leave unturned anything, and

1733
01:35:04,720 --> 01:35:07,559
Speaker 1: so for that reason, you're gonna do anything for him.

1734
01:35:07,680 --> 01:35:09,800
Speaker 1: It goes back to the Levy on Bill situation that

1735
01:35:10,280 --> 01:35:14,200
Speaker 1: you got. Because it's such a passionate, emotional and physical game.

1736
01:35:14,479 --> 01:35:16,400
Speaker 1: You're like, man, hold him. This guy same here that

1737
01:35:16,439 --> 01:35:18,280
Speaker 1: he uh in the playoffs. I think in the n

1738
01:35:18,320 --> 01:35:20,560
Speaker 1: C Championship game he played the partially toward a c L.

1739
01:35:20,880 --> 01:35:23,680
Speaker 1: He had surgery that week to clean up his a

1740
01:35:23,760 --> 01:35:25,240
Speaker 1: c L just so he can play in the game.

1741
01:35:25,640 --> 01:35:29,040
Speaker 1: He's that guy. He's that guy. So I understand what

1742
01:35:29,040 --> 01:35:31,120
Speaker 1: people are saying because when I was playing against him,

1743
01:35:31,320 --> 01:35:33,160
Speaker 1: I didn't like him. He's the type that you can

1744
01:35:33,200 --> 01:35:34,880
Speaker 1: hit him. He'll patch you on the on the hand

1745
01:35:34,960 --> 01:35:37,639
Speaker 1: while he's on his back still telling you good hit. Now.

1746
01:35:37,720 --> 01:35:41,120
Speaker 1: That would piss somebody off as a defender, because you're like, man, dude,

1747
01:35:41,120 --> 01:35:43,599
Speaker 1: don't talk to him your quarterback right when I just

1748
01:35:43,680 --> 01:35:45,519
Speaker 1: hit you and I just hit you, but he's patting

1749
01:35:45,560 --> 01:35:46,960
Speaker 1: you on the head and telling you good hit. Now,

1750
01:35:47,040 --> 01:35:49,040
Speaker 1: someone in the stands is seeing his head kind of

1751
01:35:49,120 --> 01:35:51,120
Speaker 1: jerk back in the motion and they're like, this dude

1752
01:35:51,120 --> 01:35:53,960
Speaker 1: won't shut up. But he's never He's not really saying

1753
01:35:54,000 --> 01:35:58,120
Speaker 1: anything that you know that that warrants him being a

1754
01:35:58,640 --> 01:36:01,600
Speaker 1: kind of in the way ship talking. I got you, um,

1755
01:36:01,640 --> 01:36:05,040
Speaker 1: all right, you when you go back to your rookie season,

1756
01:36:05,600 --> 01:36:10,200
Speaker 1: what's your first like you know you you high school, college,

1757
01:36:10,840 --> 01:36:17,080
Speaker 1: sweat weights, running everything, dreaming fantasies, fears everything. When I

1758
01:36:17,120 --> 01:36:19,920
Speaker 1: when I asked you, like your first moment, like, yo,

1759
01:36:20,000 --> 01:36:22,360
Speaker 1: I'm in the NFL, what's the thing comes in your head?

1760
01:36:23,080 --> 01:36:25,200
Speaker 1: My my rookie is So I came into camp late,

1761
01:36:25,439 --> 01:36:27,960
Speaker 1: right because of the way the injury clause and then

1762
01:36:28,040 --> 01:36:30,080
Speaker 1: of my agent at the time. We couldn't figure it out.

1763
01:36:30,280 --> 01:36:32,000
Speaker 1: And so I came in like I believe a week

1764
01:36:32,080 --> 01:36:34,000
Speaker 1: or two late. It was only a two weeks before

1765
01:36:34,000 --> 01:36:36,040
Speaker 1: the first game. Uh. And I came in. I was

1766
01:36:36,080 --> 01:36:38,200
Speaker 1: out of shape, man. I was like, I wasn't in

1767
01:36:38,240 --> 01:36:40,720
Speaker 1: football shape. I was pounding weights, running sprints and all

1768
01:36:40,720 --> 01:36:42,680
Speaker 1: that stuff. But my change in direction and all I

1769
01:36:42,760 --> 01:36:44,920
Speaker 1: just wasn't there. I wasn't working out like I should.

1770
01:36:45,439 --> 01:36:48,439
Speaker 1: So I came in and, uh, some of the conditions

1771

Speaker 1: drills I wasn't even finishing, like right away from the

01:37:02,840 --> 01:37:05,320

01:38:19,800 --> 01:38:23,040
Speaker 1: the night. Uh, they brought over the bill and they

1801
01:38:23,080 --> 01:38:25,439
Speaker 1: said thirty two thousand and some change. And that wasn't

1802
01:38:25,439 --> 01:38:28,439
Speaker 1: even that wasn't even the tip, no tip included, right.

1803
01:38:29,479 --> 01:38:31,479
Speaker 1: And when I tell you, I got light so light

1804
01:38:31,520 --> 01:38:33,679
Speaker 1: because I was piste off. I got so light hitted

1805
01:38:33,920 --> 01:38:36,000
Speaker 1: you here you're going, bro, I was God was like, man,

1806
01:38:36,000 --> 01:38:38,519
Speaker 1: this is I'm about to lose it. But then again,

1807
01:38:38,600 --> 01:38:40,760
Speaker 1: this is like they're a way of initiating me in

1808
01:38:40,920 --> 01:38:43,519
Speaker 1: for the time that I missed and also not being

1809
01:38:43,560 --> 01:38:47,040
Speaker 1: fully prepared when I walked in the building. So um,

1810
01:38:47,080 --> 01:38:49,680
Speaker 1: that was that was my That was my moment man,

1811
01:38:49,680 --> 01:38:51,679
Speaker 1: when I was like, okay, all right, when you're gonna

1812
01:38:51,680 --> 01:38:54,599
Speaker 1: do what we're gonna do, you dona tell Drew Brees like, no,

1813
01:38:54,600 --> 01:38:56,559
Speaker 1: Now we see Drew Brees the other night he broke

1814
01:38:56,600 --> 01:39:00,200
Speaker 1: the record. What is your your memory of that at

1815
01:39:00,320 --> 01:39:03,880
Speaker 1: Drew Brees? Your impression Drew Brees? Now, obviously now he's icon,

1816
01:39:03,960 --> 01:39:06,599
Speaker 1: he's Hall of Fame, he's super Bowl, he's Mr America.

1817
01:39:07,400 --> 01:39:11,280
Speaker 1: What made him Drew Brees back then? Well, one thing

1818
01:39:11,360 --> 01:39:14,960
Speaker 1: about about Drew is he uh, he always was on

1819
01:39:14,960 --> 01:39:17,360
Speaker 1: the mission, no matter what. Right. So when when I

1820
01:39:17,400 --> 01:39:20,240
Speaker 1: say that that if the offense left first right in

1821
01:39:20,240 --> 01:39:21,920
Speaker 1: the morning and the defense had to go to meeting

1822
01:39:21,960 --> 01:39:25,240
Speaker 1: rooms and we flip flipped or whatever, he was leaving

1823
01:39:25,320 --> 01:39:28,400
Speaker 1: right out there the weight room straight to the meeting room.

1824
01:39:28,439 --> 01:39:30,879
Speaker 1: He was always on the agenda. He was always focused

1825
01:39:30,920 --> 01:39:33,040
Speaker 1: on focus. Focused folks, moves the next things focused for

1826
01:39:33,080 --> 01:39:35,640
Speaker 1: It was like I've seen him talking to guys and

1827
01:39:35,640 --> 01:39:38,720
Speaker 1: communicating that he was you know, he's still a players guy.

1828
01:39:38,880 --> 01:39:41,960
Speaker 1: But it was like no bullshitting around it was like

1829
01:39:42,040 --> 01:39:44,040
Speaker 1: getting to He was always focused on the next thing.

1830
01:39:44,080 --> 01:39:46,960
Speaker 1: Is such a perfectionist, um. And I got the experience

1831
01:39:47,000 --> 01:39:50,120
Speaker 1: that the first year because Philip wasn't starting yet. So

1832
01:39:50,439 --> 01:39:53,160
Speaker 1: you know, you're coming into the NFL and you played college.

1833
01:39:53,200 --> 01:39:55,439
Speaker 1: You've been around quarterbacks and you've been around people or whatever,

1834
01:39:55,439 --> 01:39:59,360
Speaker 1: but you've never seen nothing like this, Um. And you know,

1835
01:39:59,400 --> 01:40:02,080
Speaker 1: I just said the other the day I was or

1836
01:40:02,080 --> 01:40:05,520
Speaker 1: whatever it was, I was when he when he dislocated

1837
01:40:05,520 --> 01:40:07,840
Speaker 1: his shoulder, this is like one of the last games,

1838
01:40:07,840 --> 01:40:10,160
Speaker 1: if not the last game of the oh five year.

1839
01:40:10,240 --> 01:40:11,960
Speaker 1: We weren't going to the playoffs. We finished nine and

1840
01:40:12,000 --> 01:40:15,240
Speaker 1: seven that year, and somehow he fumbled the ball something

1841
01:40:15,240 --> 01:40:17,479
Speaker 1: that was rolling out and kind of reached out for

1842
01:40:17,479 --> 01:40:19,200
Speaker 1: it to bring it back in, and two guys jumped

1843
01:40:19,200 --> 01:40:21,880
Speaker 1: on his back, and it was one of the most

1844
01:40:21,960 --> 01:40:25,120
Speaker 1: horrific sounds that I've ever heard of in my life

1845
01:40:25,880 --> 01:40:28,320
Speaker 1: because it sounds like a tree branch breaking almost. It

1846
01:40:28,400 --> 01:40:30,160
Speaker 1: was like, you can hear it, Yeah, you can, you

1847
01:40:30,160 --> 01:40:31,519
Speaker 1: can hear. And I didn't know if that was like

1848
01:40:31,600 --> 01:40:35,160
Speaker 1: helmet the helmet or whatever. I'm guessing and I'm right, yeah,

1849
01:40:35,160 --> 01:40:37,120
Speaker 1: I'm on the sideline. So I started to walk down

1850
01:40:37,160 --> 01:40:40,040
Speaker 1: to the offensive side of the bench. Uh. And where

1851
01:40:40,040 --> 01:40:41,880
Speaker 1: it happened was he was towards the end zone but

1852
01:40:41,960 --> 01:40:44,360
Speaker 1: closer to the sideline. So I don't know the distance,

1853
01:40:44,439 --> 01:40:47,000
Speaker 1: how far it was away, but all I heard the scream.

1854
01:40:47,040 --> 01:40:50,519
Speaker 1: He came over and when you he dislocated his shoulder,

1855
01:40:50,840 --> 01:40:53,160
Speaker 1: he couldn't put his arm down because he was out,

1856
01:40:53,200 --> 01:40:55,599
Speaker 1: you know, he just out the socket. He literally could

1857
01:40:55,720 --> 01:40:57,599
Speaker 1: was he couldn't put his arm down. So they came

1858
01:40:57,680 --> 01:40:59,519
Speaker 1: over the sideline and they put it back in. And

1859
01:40:59,560 --> 01:41:02,000
Speaker 1: from that point I thought I thought Drew was done.

1860
01:41:02,120 --> 01:41:07,360
Speaker 1: It was like, there's no way that he's gonna play again.

1861
01:41:07,640 --> 01:41:10,360
Speaker 1: And if he does, it's no way he's gonna be

1862
01:41:10,439 --> 01:41:14,320
Speaker 1: Drew Brees again. There's no way. Um. So he comes

1863
01:41:14,320 --> 01:41:16,639
Speaker 1: in and we're working out with a Todd durkin Um,

1864
01:41:16,960 --> 01:41:19,200
Speaker 1: his coach and our coach during the off season workout

1865
01:41:19,240 --> 01:41:22,400
Speaker 1: before our our off season started. Programs started up, and

1866
01:41:22,439 --> 01:41:24,880
Speaker 1: I would just watching work. I was watching work every day.

1867
01:41:24,920 --> 01:41:26,600
Speaker 1: Get that range of motion back. I would, you know,

1868
01:41:26,640 --> 01:41:29,080
Speaker 1: see him on the band works and and just going

1869
01:41:29,120 --> 01:41:31,000
Speaker 1: out throwing and throwing and throwing a little by a

1870
01:41:31,000 --> 01:41:33,519
Speaker 1: little by little. And I didn't even know at the

1871
01:41:33,640 --> 01:41:36,679
Speaker 1: time until that night of the game where they announced

1872
01:41:36,680 --> 01:41:38,599
Speaker 1: that the doctors told him they only had twenty five

1873
01:41:38,600 --> 01:41:40,120
Speaker 1: percent a chance, because I thought it was less than that.

1874
01:41:40,160 --> 01:41:42,759
Speaker 1: I thought it was like ten right the way it happened,

1875
01:41:42,760 --> 01:41:44,240
Speaker 1: it was right right there, and I was like, this

1876
01:41:44,360 --> 01:41:46,519
Speaker 1: is no way he's getting back on the field. So

1877
01:41:46,680 --> 01:41:49,880
Speaker 1: he's he's about it. Yeah, he's the truth. Um, you

1878
01:41:49,960 --> 01:41:54,559
Speaker 1: played obviously on the same team with young Ladinian. Out

1879
01:41:54,600 --> 01:41:56,200
Speaker 1: of all the guys, I mean, I'm sure it's not

1880
01:41:56,240 --> 01:42:00,640
Speaker 1: just one three running backs, uh that we're just the

1881
01:42:00,680 --> 01:42:04,640
Speaker 1: biggest problem, fastest or just powerful like like that you

1882
01:42:04,720 --> 01:42:08,599
Speaker 1: played against you just like this guy is something yeah. Um,

1883
01:42:08,800 --> 01:42:10,720
Speaker 1: And it's it's hard to answer that question because I've

1884
01:42:10,720 --> 01:42:13,400
Speaker 1: seen an LT every day in practice so aside from him,

1885
01:42:13,439 --> 01:42:16,000
Speaker 1: So first of all, what was it like with him? So?

1886
01:42:16,360 --> 01:42:20,639
Speaker 1: Oh man? It was The crazy thing is people saw

1887
01:42:20,680 --> 01:42:22,840
Speaker 1: what he did during the games, right like the jump

1888
01:42:22,840 --> 01:42:26,040
Speaker 1: cutting on the right foot, go you know, damn, they're

1889
01:42:26,080 --> 01:42:28,160
Speaker 1: making I think he tore Tyd laws a c L

1890
01:42:28,200 --> 01:42:31,000
Speaker 1: by shaking him an open field. L was doing that

1891
01:42:31,080 --> 01:42:33,720
Speaker 1: every day in practice, catching one hand out the backfield

1892
01:42:34,600 --> 01:42:37,519
Speaker 1: in stride, not even looking. It's just like, wow, this

1893
01:42:37,640 --> 01:42:40,479
Speaker 1: is he just got so normal to us. I got

1894
01:42:40,520 --> 01:42:42,439
Speaker 1: you that we you know, so now you're seeing another

1895
01:42:42,640 --> 01:42:46,439
Speaker 1: running back, You're like, uh, you know whatever. But if

1896
01:42:46,439 --> 01:42:49,680
Speaker 1: I'm not, you know, looking at him, Adrian Peterson, what

1897
01:42:49,880 --> 01:42:54,080
Speaker 1: was he in his prime? I mean Adrian Peterson? Was

1898
01:42:54,200 --> 01:42:58,240
Speaker 1: he ran so damn hard And I can say that

1899
01:42:58,280 --> 01:42:59,920
Speaker 1: in two thousand and seven that we played them and

1900
01:42:59,920 --> 01:43:02,200
Speaker 1: he broke the Russian record against US. I've never seen

1901
01:43:02,240 --> 01:43:04,479
Speaker 1: somebody run so hard before my life. When you say hard,

1902
01:43:04,520 --> 01:43:06,080
Speaker 1: what do you mean, I mean soon as soon as

1903
01:43:06,120 --> 01:43:08,360
Speaker 1: he got contact with somebody's almost he turned it up

1904
01:43:08,360 --> 01:43:11,400
Speaker 1: a notch. He ran harder after contact. Uh. It was

1905
01:43:11,439 --> 01:43:13,880
Speaker 1: almost like he knew that he was going to break

1906
01:43:13,880 --> 01:43:15,600
Speaker 1: the record. That game. It was like nothing he can do.

1907
01:43:15,640 --> 01:43:17,880
Speaker 1: He had one player when they ran to sweep, but

1908
01:43:17,920 --> 01:43:19,559
Speaker 1: it ran something to my side, so I had to

1909
01:43:19,600 --> 01:43:22,120
Speaker 1: tight end. Uh the offense offense line and the base

1910
01:43:22,200 --> 01:43:24,880
Speaker 1: blocked me straight up, and I put I keep my

1911
01:43:24,880 --> 01:43:26,960
Speaker 1: head on the outside because I know that he's going

1912
01:43:27,040 --> 01:43:28,760
Speaker 1: to bounce at some point. I know what I'm sitting

1913
01:43:28,760 --> 01:43:30,080
Speaker 1: on the outside. I'm like, as soon as he come

1914
01:43:30,080 --> 01:43:32,479
Speaker 1: out him and get his ass right. He turned his

1915
01:43:32,520 --> 01:43:36,400
Speaker 1: shoulders straight to the sidelines. Right, I've never seen anybody

1916
01:43:36,479 --> 01:43:39,040
Speaker 1: do this. He turned his shoulders straight to the sideline

1917
01:43:39,080 --> 01:43:41,240
Speaker 1: and ran as hard as he could straight to the

1918
01:43:41,479 --> 01:43:44,559
Speaker 1: He wasn't going to feel straight to the sideline. And

1919
01:43:44,600 --> 01:43:48,280
Speaker 1: then he turned his shoulders up the field and I

1920
01:43:48,320 --> 01:43:50,439
Speaker 1: went and swung for him and totally missing, and I

1921
01:43:50,479 --> 01:43:53,439
Speaker 1: was already outside, so I knew at that point, man,

1922
01:43:53,439 --> 01:43:55,479
Speaker 1: I was like, this, this is something special. I've never

1923
01:43:55,479 --> 01:43:58,200
Speaker 1: seen anything like this before. That's cool, Okay, we'll give

1924
01:43:58,200 --> 01:44:00,760
Speaker 1: me one more running back that you're like, Uh, I

1925
01:44:00,880 --> 01:44:02,759
Speaker 1: see my rookie year when I came to Jerome bettterst.

1926
01:44:03,640 --> 01:44:06,920
Speaker 1: I mean, was he bigger than you? God, I mean

1927
01:44:07,000 --> 01:44:09,960
Speaker 1: the bus man. So I'm coming from college. You know,

1928
01:44:10,000 --> 01:44:12,400
Speaker 1: I can knock anybody, and I'm knocking anybody in the ass.

1929
01:44:12,439 --> 01:44:15,040
Speaker 1: So I hit you going down right. So like they

1930
01:44:15,080 --> 01:44:16,639
Speaker 1: think we got them on a Sunday night on Monday

1931
01:44:16,680 --> 01:44:19,439
Speaker 1: night game, I've got which one exactly was. So I

1932
01:44:19,439 --> 01:44:22,120
Speaker 1: saw Betters going through the middle, so I'm I'm like

1933
01:44:22,280 --> 01:44:24,000
Speaker 1: kind of folding back in the coverage a little bit,

1934
01:44:24,000 --> 01:44:25,519
Speaker 1: so I got a little bit of a running start.

1935
01:44:26,160 --> 01:44:27,880
Speaker 1: So I'm thinking of my head. I'm like I'm about

1936
01:44:27,880 --> 01:44:29,799
Speaker 1: to you know, I'm about to get him on primetime football.

1937
01:44:29,800 --> 01:44:32,320
Speaker 1: I'm gonna knock Jerome Bettest out right. I got it

1938
01:44:32,400 --> 01:44:34,439
Speaker 1: fixed in my head and I'm about to lay Jerome

1939
01:44:34,520 --> 01:44:36,960
Speaker 1: better south. So I'm licking my chopd man. I can't

1940
01:44:37,000 --> 01:44:38,559
Speaker 1: wait because I'm you know, I get a chance to

1941
01:44:38,600 --> 01:44:41,600
Speaker 1: make my name against Jerome Bettest. And I go and

1942
01:44:41,640 --> 01:44:44,720
Speaker 1: I hit him up top right. First of all, he's so,

1943
01:44:44,880 --> 01:44:47,120
Speaker 1: he's so damn big. I couldn't wrap my arms completely

1944
01:44:47,120 --> 01:44:50,360
Speaker 1: around him, Like I couldn't just get my arms around him.

1945
01:44:50,400 --> 01:44:53,000
Speaker 1: And I hit him on contact and he went two

1946
01:44:53,000 --> 01:44:55,679
Speaker 1: more yards and I'm sliding down his legs and I'm saying,

1947
01:44:55,680 --> 01:44:59,200
Speaker 1: oh shit, he dragged me two more yards before he

1948
01:44:59,240 --> 01:45:00,960
Speaker 1: went down. He must have. He must have went down

1949
01:45:00,960 --> 01:45:02,599
Speaker 1: six yards after I hit him. And I was like,

1950
01:45:02,640 --> 01:45:04,639
Speaker 1: you gave him a shot. I gave a shot. And

1951
01:45:04,680 --> 01:45:06,639
Speaker 1: that's at that point I knew. I was like, Okay, yeah,

1952
01:45:06,640 --> 01:45:08,920
Speaker 1: I'm in the I'm in the league. Now, that's cool.

1953
01:45:09,560 --> 01:45:15,200
Speaker 1: And quarterbacks who were the best quarterbacksually playing against hands down?

1954
01:45:15,479 --> 01:45:19,960
Speaker 1: Um you want to say, team wise, it's definitely Tom,

1955
01:45:20,000 --> 01:45:22,639
Speaker 1: but Peyton was up there too. Because Peyton will come out.

1956
01:45:22,680 --> 01:45:25,280
Speaker 1: He just knew Peyton knew too much. He's the way

1957
01:45:25,320 --> 01:45:27,840
Speaker 1: he scanned to feel and the way when he when

1958
01:45:27,840 --> 01:45:29,280
Speaker 1: he came up to this, when he when he came

1959
01:45:29,360 --> 01:45:31,280
Speaker 1: up to the snap, he'll look over the field. He

1960
01:45:31,400 --> 01:45:34,360
Speaker 1: looks from that cornerback all the way to the other cornerback,

1961
01:45:34,400 --> 01:45:36,439
Speaker 1: and he knew exactly what was going on and started

1962
01:45:36,479 --> 01:45:40,599
Speaker 1: changing the play. And that's all that Montana and all

1963
01:45:40,600 --> 01:45:43,400
Speaker 1: this ship. Yeah, and it was even worse than like

1964
01:45:43,439 --> 01:45:45,760
Speaker 1: two thousand and six, two thousand and seven when he

1965
01:45:45,840 --> 01:45:48,880
Speaker 1: was really really hot. Um, I'll never forget. We played

1966
01:45:48,920 --> 01:45:51,320
Speaker 1: I think one night against them, Sunday night and Monday

1967
01:45:51,400 --> 01:45:54,280
Speaker 1: night game. We played like ninety three snaps. I mean

1968
01:45:54,320 --> 01:45:56,000
Speaker 1: he was coming up to the coming up to the

1969
01:45:56,120 --> 01:45:57,760
Speaker 1: huddle and come up to the line of scrimmage and

1970
01:45:57,800 --> 01:45:59,839
Speaker 1: hiking that damn ball. I thought I couldn't, I couldn't

1971
01:45:59,840 --> 01:46:03,040
Speaker 1: bring about the seventieth play. I was tapping a coming

1972
01:46:03,080 --> 01:46:05,040
Speaker 1: off the field, and as I'm getting off the field,

1973
01:46:05,040 --> 01:46:06,640
Speaker 1: he's calling the damn play and then he catch you

1974
01:46:06,680 --> 01:46:08,919
Speaker 1: with a you know, twelve men on the field. That's crazy.

1975
01:46:09,000 --> 01:46:11,160
Speaker 1: He just was like like a computer. He was a computer.

1976
01:46:11,520 --> 01:46:15,240
Speaker 1: And and Brady, I mean, he's did you ever imagine

1977
01:46:15,280 --> 01:46:17,280
Speaker 1: when you were playing that this guy would be playing.

1978
01:46:17,320 --> 01:46:20,360
Speaker 1: He's seventy five years old. Now yeah, might be eighty.

1979
01:46:20,400 --> 01:46:23,280
Speaker 1: I mean, somebody gotta check. But I mean, this is insane.

1980
01:46:23,360 --> 01:46:28,280
Speaker 1: He one thing about about Tom Brady. Man, he uh,

1981
01:46:28,479 --> 01:46:30,200
Speaker 1: I don't never forget my I think it was my rookieyear.

1982
01:46:30,200 --> 01:46:32,200
Speaker 1: We was playing about damn Fox Barrel and I was

1983
01:46:32,240 --> 01:46:34,840
Speaker 1: coming off of the edge and uh, I was about

1984
01:46:34,880 --> 01:46:37,040
Speaker 1: to hit him and he kind of dug down right.

1985
01:46:37,120 --> 01:46:39,800
Speaker 1: His back is towards me. He doesn't see me at all.

1986
01:46:39,880 --> 01:46:42,720
Speaker 1: He felt you, he felt me, and I went right

1987
01:46:42,800 --> 01:46:44,479
Speaker 1: over the top of me. Still back up and look

1988
01:46:44,479 --> 01:46:47,080
Speaker 1: back down the field again. Another flinched and I was

1989
01:46:47,120 --> 01:46:49,760
Speaker 1: like through a pass and I was like, man, this

1990
01:46:49,840 --> 01:46:53,439
Speaker 1: is wow. What just happened? Right, So it's crazy. It's

1991
01:46:53,520 --> 01:46:55,840
Speaker 1: it's just crazy. I have so many I mean just

1992
01:46:56,840 --> 01:46:58,320
Speaker 1: and I always looked at it. You if you want

1993
01:46:58,360 --> 01:47:01,120
Speaker 1: to be a known And I told Von Millers when

1994
01:47:01,160 --> 01:47:04,160
Speaker 1: he first got drafted, because he called me um before

1995
01:47:04,160 --> 01:47:06,439
Speaker 1: he got draft acted after he left school and we're

1996
01:47:06,479 --> 01:47:08,720
Speaker 1: just kind of picking my brain about the NFL. And

1997
01:47:08,760 --> 01:47:10,519
Speaker 1: I said, dude, and that's what I'm telling Von Miller.

1998
01:47:10,560 --> 01:47:12,400
Speaker 1: I said, if you want to make a name for yourself,

1999
01:47:12,439 --> 01:47:15,280
Speaker 1: you gotta do it against the great quarterbacks period. You

2000
01:47:15,320 --> 01:47:17,280
Speaker 1: gotta have you know, nobody cares if you go out

2001
01:47:17,280 --> 01:47:19,960
Speaker 1: and sack Jermarcus Russell three times like they it's good

2002
01:47:19,960 --> 01:47:22,599
Speaker 1: for the stats, but it's nobody. Really. You don't get

2003
01:47:22,640 --> 01:47:24,840
Speaker 1: your you don't get your stamp by doing that. You

2004
01:47:24,880 --> 01:47:26,479
Speaker 1: go get Brady a couple of times, you gonna get

2005
01:47:26,479 --> 01:47:28,040
Speaker 1: paid many a couple of times. That's why, you know,

2006
01:47:28,080 --> 01:47:30,240
Speaker 1: I kind of started earlier because we had these guys,

2007
01:47:30,240 --> 01:47:33,640
Speaker 1: we had a coach, we had the Patriots, and only

2008
01:47:33,640 --> 01:47:36,240
Speaker 1: these guys early on. I think one of my first

2009
01:47:36,280 --> 01:47:39,599
Speaker 1: sacks against like Donovan mcmabb um. I didn't start until

2010
01:47:39,600 --> 01:47:42,000
Speaker 1: the middle of the year my rookie year, UH And

2011
01:47:42,040 --> 01:47:45,400
Speaker 1: I had another big sack my rookie year against Ben Roethlisberg.

2012
01:47:45,439 --> 01:47:48,280
Speaker 1: And I always approached the game that if you want

2013
01:47:48,280 --> 01:47:50,880
Speaker 1: to be known, you have to have great games against

2014
01:47:50,880 --> 01:47:54,479
Speaker 1: great quarterback. I got you, that's cool. The Khalil Mack

2015
01:47:55,200 --> 01:47:59,200
Speaker 1: von Miller, these are the the you know, it's like

2016
01:47:59,240 --> 01:48:03,760
Speaker 1: a nausea with the trade whatever. Who who else has

2017
01:48:03,840 --> 01:48:07,920
Speaker 1: really got the art of pass rushing UH down from

2018
01:48:07,960 --> 01:48:10,599
Speaker 1: the linebacker position. Those two are that, you know, one

2019
01:48:10,640 --> 01:48:12,760
Speaker 1: and to two and one. However, yeah, you gotta throw

2020
01:48:12,800 --> 01:48:15,920
Speaker 1: just to Houston in there. He's his takeoff and the

2021
01:48:15,960 --> 01:48:19,360
Speaker 1: way he gets around the corners bar none. Um, you

2022
01:48:19,400 --> 01:48:22,040
Speaker 1: know obviously, but Joey Bosa, you know, is getting up

2023
01:48:22,040 --> 01:48:24,160
Speaker 1: there too when he's when he's healthy. See what's the

2024
01:48:24,200 --> 01:48:26,200
Speaker 1: deal on him? He's man, He's how big of a

2025
01:48:26,240 --> 01:48:28,840
Speaker 1: detriment is it to their defense? Is he's a He's

2026
01:48:28,880 --> 01:48:31,439
Speaker 1: such a game change that you can immediately tell if

2027
01:48:31,479 --> 01:48:34,599
Speaker 1: anybody holds onto the ball too long? Did you immediately

2028
01:48:34,600 --> 01:48:37,720
Speaker 1: start thinking that, damn it, Joey Bosa was out there,

2029
01:48:37,720 --> 01:48:39,840
Speaker 1: that wouldn't happen. He's the real deal and there's and

2030
01:48:39,840 --> 01:48:42,080
Speaker 1: there's nothing that gets Melvin Inger at all. I mean,

2031
01:48:42,080 --> 01:48:44,400
Speaker 1: I had my career had Sean Phillips on the other

2032
01:48:44,400 --> 01:48:47,000
Speaker 1: side of me, and Sean Phillips can hold his own,

2033
01:48:47,360 --> 01:48:49,200
Speaker 1: so you know, you couldn't come out and just game

2034
01:48:49,240 --> 01:48:51,200
Speaker 1: playing me every single time because then you know he's

2035
01:48:51,200 --> 01:48:54,639
Speaker 1: gonna get off. Um. And with those two, obviously when

2036
01:48:54,640 --> 01:48:57,800
Speaker 1: they're back, they're the best pass rushes together in all

2037
01:48:57,800 --> 01:49:00,559
Speaker 1: the football. When what's the word on Bosa? Because again,

2038
01:49:00,720 --> 01:49:04,920
Speaker 1: my fantasy team listen in fantasy. He they were my defense,

2039
01:49:04,960 --> 01:49:06,880
Speaker 1: but it was I had to get sketchy. Well, what's

2040
01:49:06,920 --> 01:49:09,000
Speaker 1: the word on boatsa? Well, he he had the bone

2041
01:49:09,000 --> 01:49:11,120
Speaker 1: bruise in his foot. Um, I had a light, a

2042
01:49:11,200 --> 01:49:13,840
Speaker 1: light of version of that before. And it sucks, man,

2043
01:49:13,880 --> 01:49:15,920
Speaker 1: It's so damn painful and you can't think it is.

2044
01:49:15,960 --> 01:49:19,040
Speaker 1: But the bone bruise, you can't injured a whole lot more.

2045
01:49:19,360 --> 01:49:22,880
Speaker 1: Uh huh um, but as painful as hell, as painful

2046
01:49:22,880 --> 01:49:24,600
Speaker 1: as hell, and you gotta heal up because when you

2047
01:49:24,600 --> 01:49:26,559
Speaker 1: put your foot in the ground, it feels like it's broken.

2048
01:49:26,920 --> 01:49:29,920
Speaker 1: Your foot is broken. Uh So probably I would say

2049
01:49:29,960 --> 01:49:31,920
Speaker 1: another week or two. Okay, okay, you know, maybe another

2050
01:49:31,920 --> 01:49:33,479
Speaker 1: week or two. I think they're expected for him to

2051
01:49:33,520 --> 01:49:35,680
Speaker 1: come back somewhere in the middle of somewhere in the

2052
01:49:35,680 --> 01:49:38,680
Speaker 1: middle of October, towards the end or whatever. But if

2053
01:49:38,680 --> 01:49:40,519
Speaker 1: they can, you know, they can get past another game

2054
01:49:40,600 --> 01:49:43,160
Speaker 1: or two and get a win. Right when he comes back,

2055
01:49:43,200 --> 01:49:45,120
Speaker 1: he's gonna be healthy for the second part of the season.

2056
01:49:45,280 --> 01:49:48,639
Speaker 1: And that's scary you. Um, all right, we know where

2057
01:49:48,680 --> 01:49:51,479
Speaker 1: we are in football right now based on everything. We

2058
01:49:51,520 --> 01:49:54,960
Speaker 1: know who's playing, who's not playing, who's injured, who's not injured.

2059
01:49:56,040 --> 01:49:59,200
Speaker 1: Based on everything we know and hopefully everybody stays healthy,

2060
01:49:59,520 --> 01:50:02,759
Speaker 1: who's going know who's going to be the final two

2061
01:50:02,800 --> 01:50:05,200
Speaker 1: teams not just the final four teams at the end

2062
01:50:05,240 --> 01:50:07,479
Speaker 1: of the season. Well, for one, you always gotta put

2063
01:50:07,479 --> 01:50:10,719
Speaker 1: the Patriots up there someway, right, they just find you can't.

2064
01:50:10,760 --> 01:50:13,559
Speaker 1: It's at this point where you can't explain it against them.

2065
01:50:13,600 --> 01:50:15,559
Speaker 1: You can't bet against him because it's like, Okay, this

2066
01:50:15,600 --> 01:50:18,120
Speaker 1: guy's gone, this guy's coming in, this guy's gone, he's

2067
01:50:18,120 --> 01:50:19,840
Speaker 1: coming in. They lost two in a row, if the

2068
01:50:19,880 --> 01:50:21,760
Speaker 1: world's coming to an end, and then they win eight,

2069
01:50:21,880 --> 01:50:24,120
Speaker 1: you know, eight or nine in a road or whatever.

2070
01:50:24,439 --> 01:50:26,280
Speaker 1: So you gotta put them up there. You gotta put

2071
01:50:26,360 --> 01:50:29,439
Speaker 1: Kansas City up there, right. I Mean, the only thing

2072
01:50:29,439 --> 01:50:32,559
Speaker 1: that's scary about Kansas City, um is for one that

2073
01:50:32,600 --> 01:50:35,759
Speaker 1: they've had these fast stars before. They have a beautiful

2074
01:50:35,760 --> 01:50:37,800
Speaker 1: one last year. Yeah, they you know, they have these

2075
01:50:37,800 --> 01:50:39,960
Speaker 1: fast starts, and they got they have a few injuries

2076
01:50:39,960 --> 01:50:41,720
Speaker 1: here and there, then their whole season just goes to

2077
01:50:41,800 --> 01:50:45,400
Speaker 1: the dump. Um. But as they're how they're playing right now,

2078
01:50:45,439 --> 01:50:48,600
Speaker 1: you gotta put them up there. Uh. Who else on

2079
01:50:48,680 --> 01:50:52,559
Speaker 1: the NFC side, I wouldn't I wouldn't put it past

2080
01:50:52,680 --> 01:50:56,360
Speaker 1: in you know, Chicago. I'm serious, I wouldn't because there's

2081
01:50:56,400 --> 01:50:59,880
Speaker 1: such a grimy team. There's such a grid. You know.

2082
01:51:00,000 --> 01:51:02,800
Speaker 1: They don't have the athletes all they're all around, right,

2083
01:51:02,800 --> 01:51:05,320
Speaker 1: they don't have the star you know, I got Khalil

2084
01:51:05,400 --> 01:51:07,680
Speaker 1: Mack and they got uh what's the d tackle? The

2085
01:51:07,720 --> 01:51:15,960
Speaker 1: plays next to no Sorry, So they don't have the stars, right,

2086
01:51:16,320 --> 01:51:18,920
Speaker 1: they don't have the stars as they once did. Uh.

2087
01:51:19,000 --> 01:51:21,880
Speaker 1: But the way they play is that they're the team

2088
01:51:21,920 --> 01:51:25,880
Speaker 1: that squeezes into the playoffs and become very problematic for

2089
01:51:25,920 --> 01:51:28,560
Speaker 1: other teams. They're the team like, man, hope when you

2090
01:51:28,560 --> 01:51:30,240
Speaker 1: got to play them, right, because they're the ones they're

2091
01:51:30,240 --> 01:51:33,639
Speaker 1: just gonna fight you for four quarters. On the other side,

2092
01:51:33,680 --> 01:51:39,000
Speaker 1: who we got Eagles? Like, you gotta put Eagles up there? Um?

2093
01:51:39,160 --> 01:51:41,160
Speaker 1: And then who's winning the Super Bowl? Or is it two? Or?

2094
01:51:42,880 --> 01:51:44,439
Speaker 1: But you gotta roll the dice. The reason why I

2095
01:51:44,479 --> 01:51:46,479
Speaker 1: say that because you can pick Kansas City right now

2096
01:51:46,520 --> 01:51:48,800
Speaker 1: all day. I mean, it's their defense. Are gonna gonna

2097
01:51:48,840 --> 01:51:51,160
Speaker 1: hold it together? And this is the thing. What the defense?

2098
01:51:51,360 --> 01:51:54,639
Speaker 1: Uh that they can't tackle worth the damn, that's that's

2099
01:51:54,640 --> 01:51:56,840
Speaker 1: their problem. What does that mean when they say that

2100
01:51:56,880 --> 01:51:59,120
Speaker 1: they can't tackle. To me, it's like when you hear

2101
01:51:59,200 --> 01:52:02,240
Speaker 1: running back the go he can't catch. I could catch.

2102
01:52:02,560 --> 01:52:04,280
Speaker 1: You can catch a football, But where what is that?

2103
01:52:04,320 --> 01:52:08,760
Speaker 1: You can't tax i? Look at this. Tackling is a mentality, right,

2104
01:52:08,880 --> 01:52:11,320
Speaker 1: It's not a skill level everybody. You know. The reason

2105
01:52:11,320 --> 01:52:13,559
Speaker 1: why they take the pads off now in practices they

2106
01:52:13,600 --> 01:52:15,439
Speaker 1: don't make you thump every day is because you you

2107
01:52:15,479 --> 01:52:18,000
Speaker 1: should know how to tackle. You put yourself in a

2108
01:52:18,000 --> 01:52:19,840
Speaker 1: position to tackle. You wrap up and get your heads

2109
01:52:19,840 --> 01:52:21,160
Speaker 1: to the outside, and you take a guy down to

2110
01:52:21,200 --> 01:52:23,280
Speaker 1: the ground. Simple. You've been doing it since you were

2111
01:52:23,320 --> 01:52:27,799
Speaker 1: not most most guyses they were kids. The mentality I understand.

2112
01:52:27,880 --> 01:52:30,120
Speaker 1: They don't have a They don't have a mentality there

2113
01:52:30,200 --> 01:52:33,720
Speaker 1: to go out and finish plays rough. They're rough, They

2114
01:52:33,720 --> 01:52:36,040
Speaker 1: don't they're not swarming to look at look at the

2115
01:52:36,040 --> 01:52:38,240
Speaker 1: tackles they're missing. Even even though they missing, it's not

2116
01:52:38,280 --> 01:52:41,080
Speaker 1: like a gang tackle. It's a guy, a cornerback miss

2117
01:52:41,160 --> 01:52:43,680
Speaker 1: and another five and six yards before another guy is

2118
01:52:43,680 --> 01:52:47,680
Speaker 1: in the picture. Can can that team change that? Is

2119
01:52:47,720 --> 01:52:50,559
Speaker 1: it a mentality? Can that mentality tighten up by the

2120
01:52:50,600 --> 01:52:53,080
Speaker 1: time you know we're get in the week fifteen sixteen. Yeah,

2121
01:52:53,120 --> 01:52:56,000
Speaker 1: the problem is that how how many games will they

2122
01:52:56,040 --> 01:52:58,639
Speaker 1: fall until that happens, until they really put their foot

2123
01:52:58,680 --> 01:53:00,920
Speaker 1: down and said, guys, we gotta change the now. Got

2124
01:53:00,960 --> 01:53:05,000
Speaker 1: you right? But and there's and there, you know, in

2125
01:53:05,040 --> 01:53:07,400
Speaker 1: their defense when you have an offense, they could put

2126
01:53:07,439 --> 01:53:09,920
Speaker 1: up thirty point thirty plus points a game like they

2127
01:53:09,920 --> 01:53:14,320
Speaker 1: have been. You might be okay, okay, all right, Shawan, merryman,
