Speaker 1: Ain't no jailer. He might be voting for the presidency
Speaker 1: and that is myself eight months away. Hey, don't tell
Speaker 1: you what georgrab you to do. Oh yo, the Chiefs
Speaker 1: are the underdog for the third straight game. There are
Speaker 1: now a two point underdogs according to Draft Kings sportsbook.
Speaker 1: Oh chore Mahomes and Andy Reid being disrespected. Why do
Speaker 1: they continue to do this? Why do they continuously poke
Speaker 1: the bear? Why do they continuously poke the bear.
Speaker 3: I'm I'm not really sure how they come up with
Speaker 3: the scenarios on why there the underdogs. Is the fact
Speaker 3: that there are so many Pro Bowlers, so many great
Speaker 3: players offensively, I mean and defensively for the forty nine ers,
Speaker 3: based on what the Chiefs have been able to do.
Speaker 2: In the postseason.
Speaker 3: Why I think this is what maybe the second or
Speaker 3: third game they've been underdogs, underdog.
Speaker 1: Being tied player with the exception of the first game.
Speaker 1: They weren't underdogs against Miami, but they were underdogs against Buffalo,
Speaker 1: uh Buffalo, Buffalo, and Baltimore in Baltimore and now the
Speaker 1: forty nine ers.
Speaker 3: I'm not sure if someone has something against Andy Reid.
Speaker 3: I'm not sure if somebody has something against Patrick Mahomes
Speaker 3: and just the Chiefs in general. I understand they played
Speaker 3: bad during in the middle of the season, you know,
Speaker 3: from an officers standpoint, as a statistical standpoint, as far
Speaker 3: as the receiver goal they led the NFL in drops.
Speaker 3: As a corps themselves, yeah that as well. But to
Speaker 3: say that they are underdogs and betting against Patrick Mahomes
Speaker 3: is asinine and I think it's an angle that might
Speaker 3: have something to do with gambling and having people put
Speaker 3: more money on the forty nine ers to.
Speaker 2: Win, as opposed that people really believe in.
Speaker 3: Whoever came with this scenario that they're the underdogs, I
Speaker 3: think it had that might be the angle they're going
Speaker 3: to get people to lose money on betting with the
Speaker 3: forty nine ers.
Speaker 2: Well, what happens is, though, Joe, you notice is that
Speaker 2: they said the line.
Speaker 1: If I'm not mistaken, the original line was minus one, right,
Speaker 1: and so in order for it to move the minus two,
Speaker 1: that means a lot of bad came in on the
Speaker 1: Chiefs because we got to open the line up and
Speaker 1: we want people to bet on the forty nine ers also,
Speaker 1: so that's seemingly why they opened the line up.
Speaker 2: Okay, all right?
Speaker 3: That that gives me a better better understanding because logically,
Speaker 3: a two time Super Bowl champ, there's no way I'm
Speaker 3: being against that. As good as Rock Purty played last week,
Speaker 3: as good as that offense looked, you know, coming back
Speaker 3: from the deferences they were able to do come back from.
Speaker 2: But I still just so with you explaining to me
Speaker 2: like that. I knew it had to do.
Speaker 3: Someone numbers and money, you know, because I I don't
Speaker 3: understand that. I don't understand that part.
Speaker 1: Well, go back, what was the original line? Because I
Speaker 1: see someone say one and a half two and a half.
Speaker 1: It's one and a half. The original line was one
Speaker 1: and a half, right, So it moved a half a point.
Speaker 1: So that means a lot of people been laying money
Speaker 1: on the on the on the chiefs.
Speaker 2: Okay, okay, okay, that that that makes sense, And that's
Speaker 2: one thing.
Speaker 1: A lot of people betting money, a lot of people
Speaker 1: betting money on the forty nine ers. They just dropped it,
Speaker 1: right because they don't want to. They don't they don't
Speaker 1: really want to get one side too heavy, one sided
Speaker 1: either way.
Speaker 3: Right, But uh so they so basically what they're doing
Speaker 3: is they line to the people like some damn politicians.
Speaker 1: Well what happened they started just just just to sway
Speaker 1: where the money need to go. Yeah, because what happened
Speaker 1: is started at one and a half now said two.
Speaker 1: That means a lot of money for it to move.
Speaker 1: A lot of money has having him been coming in
Speaker 1: on Kansas City. So we'll see, we'll see how it plays.
Speaker 1: Because at the end of the day, oh Joe, this
Speaker 1: is a neutral site game. It's not like they're playing
Speaker 1: in the forty nine ers building. It's not like they're
Speaker 1: playing in Arrowhead. Obviously, this is as legit a neutral
Speaker 1: site game as you're gonna get. I think both fan
Speaker 1: bases will be in full effect. It's gonna be part
Speaker 1: to tell who's who comes. Both teams were read.
Speaker 2: I have a problem. I got a question now.
Speaker 3: I got to stop you right there when you say
Speaker 3: both teams fans will be in full effect. Have you
Speaker 3: seen the ticket prices for the Super Bowl? And when
Speaker 3: I think about it, I think the hard earned, blue
Speaker 3: collar fans of these teams, the people that show up
Speaker 3: to every home game, the eight game that they do
Speaker 3: have throughout this not for them.
Speaker 2: It's not for them.
Speaker 3: They are priced out. They're priced out. I think it's unfair. Obviously,
Speaker 3: we understand what the end goal is, and the bottom
Speaker 3: line goal is for the NFL, especially an event of
Speaker 3: this magnitude, it's about money.
Speaker 2: That's always been the end goal. This is for the wealthy.
Speaker 3: This is for the rich to come together and have
Speaker 3: some fun and enjoy the last game of the season.
Speaker 3: It's not for the true, authentic fans that work hard
Speaker 3: in this goddamn economy to support their team eight weeks
Speaker 3: out the season at home.
Speaker 2: They're priced out. They are priced out based on the prices.
Speaker 3: I saw, I got it and ain't no damn wigh
Speaker 3: in hell, I'm paying sep eight thousand.
Speaker 2: Dollars for a goddamn ticket.
Speaker 1: What average ticket price now is twelve thousand dollars. Because
Speaker 1: here's the thing the NFL. I remember when we went
Speaker 1: to the Pro Bowl, if I'm not the Pro Bow,
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl, I think the highest ticket was one
Speaker 1: thousand dollars. But if you turn around, yes, one thousand dollars.
Speaker 1: But if you scalt the tickets, people was willing to
Speaker 1: pay you seven or eight thousand. So the NFL said,
Speaker 1: hold on, y'all willing to pay seven eight thousand dollars,
Speaker 1: We'll just go ahead and put the ticket at seven
Speaker 1: to eight thousand dollars since you want to pay that.
Speaker 1: But what has happened is that you take all the
Speaker 1: all the advertising and sponsors. That's where the tickets go.
Speaker 1: Oh chill, you need to tell me for a billion dollars,
Speaker 1: For two billion dollars, I can't get.
Speaker 2: No tickets right right, right, right? Come on, It's crazy. Listen.
Speaker 2: This is Super Bowl is a corporate event.
Speaker 3: Yes, Super Bowl is a corporate event, and there needs
Speaker 3: to be some type of structure or something done for
Speaker 3: the hardcore fans, the fans that put on the costumes,
Speaker 3: the fans that paint their faces, the fans that been
Speaker 3: at Arrowhead Weeke in and week out when they played home,
Speaker 3: and the fans that better goddamn Levi Stadium week in
Speaker 3: and week out. They are priced out because in this
Speaker 3: is a goddamn economy, nobody can afford a goddamn ticket
Speaker 3: for twelve thousand, damn dollars.
Speaker 2: And then you got some people. You got some people
Speaker 2: that are gonna get scammed. They're gonna be sold fake tickets.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 3: They have they have to find some happy medium for
Speaker 3: the people that are part of the median households that
Speaker 3: have been going to games year in and year out,
Speaker 3: and all of a sudden they make it, their team
Speaker 3: makes it to the biggest game of them all.
Speaker 2: Now you're gonna have people digging in.
Speaker 3: Their life savings, watch watching digging and they goddamn life savings.
Speaker 2: Watch it on TV. I mean, come on, we.
Speaker 1: Got the one thing that we're gonna be on this
Speaker 1: on this podcast is honest and they probably when the
Speaker 1: tickets started. When you got tickets starting out in six thousand,
Speaker 1: what average fan is going to be able to pay
Speaker 1: six thousand dollars?
Speaker 2: Okay, that's for the ticket. Well, the hotels you got
Speaker 2: a three night minimum.
Speaker 1: Three nights right, So that so even if you come
Speaker 1: in and say, oh, well I just want I'm just
Speaker 1: gonna come in for the game.
Speaker 2: What you're gonna sleep in your car? That's that's that's
Speaker 2: something that's something that that that would be a choice
Speaker 2: of mind without Are you going to eat? Are you
Speaker 2: gonna eat? They have fast food? They have fast food
Speaker 2: and uh in in Vegas, you.
Speaker 1: Think you will get a normal price as a normal
Speaker 1: price that you would normally be if you was in Vegas.
Speaker 3: Listen, Vegas got Bahama Breeze. If you want to go fancy,
Speaker 3: now that's dinner? Are you going to bring it down
Speaker 3: a notch? Vegas has in and Out, Vegas has Burger King,
Speaker 3: Vegas has McDonald's. They have a Poyo Loco. You don't
Speaker 3: have to go fancy. We talk about based on if
Speaker 3: you're on a structured income budget because you paid ya
Speaker 3: on a budget and you paid a lot the Let's
Speaker 3: say you took some of your life savings. You want
Speaker 3: to go to Super Bowl, sleep in your car heat.
Speaker 3: That what I consider some of the lower tier restaurants.
Speaker 3: I consider them high tier. Other people consider them low tier.
Speaker 3: I mean that's what I would do. I would see,
Speaker 3: I don't have no problem set with my car, and
Speaker 3: I got to use the bathroom. I go to a
Speaker 3: twenty four hour seventy eleven twenty four our eye hop.
Speaker 2: You know that my bathroom. And you ain't buying no
Speaker 2: potator to gyms with no gas or no soda, no,
Speaker 2: or they don't have a choice. They they do have
Speaker 2: a choice.
Speaker 1: That's a that's a private entity. You just can't go
Speaker 1: use the bathroom where you ad you think you have
Speaker 1: a recreation.
Speaker 2: Center by a stake of gum, buy a stake of gun.
Speaker 2: You got to buy something. What have you ever know?
Speaker 1: People at home win an event, Grammy's, Emmy's obster, some
Speaker 1: type of event that's coming over.
Speaker 2: You see what happened when the gas price is what
Speaker 2: they do with the gas prices? They jack?
Speaker 1: Okay, then so they got they got in a bit
Speaker 1: coming to Vegas. Tell me what you think they're gonna
Speaker 1: do with food prices?
Speaker 2: But they gonna hang it up a little bit, a
Speaker 2: little bit. They can only do it so much, so much.
Speaker 3: You still listen, You still want to you still want
Speaker 3: to attract not only business, but you still want to
Speaker 3: be able to make money if you price yourself out. Listen,
Speaker 3: nobody go to establishment. They already go to the establishment.
Speaker 3: They are already coming. They are already coming. We already
Speaker 3: know we're gonna get an influx a million, two million people, right,
Speaker 3: so listen, there's an influx of a one million, two
Speaker 3: million people. You think those people wanna find somewhere else
Speaker 3: to eat? If your prices are outrageous from ridiculous, what's
Speaker 3: the likelihood of the people that's that's coming. And they
Speaker 3: got hotel rooms for a three night minimum? What you say,
Speaker 3: That's the part of the thing is they're gonna stop
Speaker 3: by your establishment anyway.
Speaker 2: That's a good one. Hey, that's a good one. I
Speaker 2: mean a good one.
Speaker 1: I mean they got combanas going for one hundred thousand
Speaker 1: to see twelve people, one hundred thousand companda will at
Speaker 1: the clubs at the clubs one hundred dollars a quarter
Speaker 1: of a meal and see, and you wonder why, and
Speaker 1: you wonder why I've never parted in life because it
Speaker 1: makes no sense.
Speaker 3: What are you getting for a hundred thousand that you
Speaker 3: can't get it home? Turning your radio real, real, goddamn loud,
Speaker 3: invite all your friends over boom, same concept, same energy,
Speaker 3: same vibe. But you're paying one hundred or two hundred
Speaker 3: and fifty thousand dollars or whatever it may be to
Speaker 3: go to do what?
Speaker 2: Just to show? Look, I got money. Okay, that's cool,
Speaker 2: that's fine. It ain't how much you make, how much
Speaker 2: you keep.
Speaker 3: Now you're talking like me, I like where you're going.
Speaker 3: Now we have something that we have something else to
Speaker 3: address based on that comment right there.
Speaker 1: Later, I'm just said, look, when you and Ocho to
Speaker 1: think like I said, I believe that that what the
Speaker 1: NFL saw is that and what you see any time
Speaker 1: if somebody willing to pay for it, if they willing
Speaker 1: to pay, y'all scap of the NFL's like, hold on,
Speaker 1: We sell sold all these tickets and the players can
Speaker 1: only get thirty fifteen tickets. You get thirteen tickets. You
Speaker 1: get too free. Now, it used to be team it
Speaker 1: was at the team discretion. Teams could give you twenty ticket.
Speaker 1: You know, twenty thirty tickets, or whatever the case may be,
Speaker 1: but there was there was a discrepancy. Many years ago,
Speaker 1: one team gave a team thirty tickets and the other
Speaker 1: team gave So the NFL said, you know what we're
Speaker 1: gonna do.
Speaker 2: We're gonna take it over.
Speaker 1: You're gonna be able to give them two free comp tickets,
Speaker 1: just like you get at home, and they can buy
Speaker 1: thirteen and.
Speaker 2: Guess what, and guess what, guess we'll play. Sometimes players
Speaker 2: did with them thirteen tickets. Oh do you follow them? Well,
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 1: I mean your mom, you're close close mom, you know dad?
Speaker 1: If you got if you gotta if you got a
Speaker 1: significant other or wife, obviously you got kids.

Speaker 1: I got kids. Right, that's four rooms and that's that's
Speaker 1: bare minimum for a room, possibly fifth.

Speaker 1: Now I could have flew. I could have flew now
Speaker 1: my family. This was pre nine to eleven, so this
Speaker 1: was pre the tickets was high as giraffe. Huh. But
Speaker 1: so ojo, I gotta bring my mom from Chicago. I

Speaker 1: gotta fly back from San Diego to Denver or from Miami,
Speaker 1: because you know, we flew in them we played in Miami,
Speaker 1: or when I was in Baltimore, we flew to Tampa.
Speaker 1: So I just like, okay, I mean I think I've
Speaker 1: been like fifteen grand just in flights.

Speaker 1: No, none of those souper Oh mom my sister, Oh
Speaker 1: they got to go to kids, they got to go
Speaker 1: to that the super Bowl. Now, there are a lot
Speaker 1: of people that have never seen Shannon Shape player a
Speaker 1: football game, not a preseason game, not a regular season game,
Speaker 1: not a playoff game.
Speaker 2: You mean in per in person persons.
Speaker 1: But they wanted to go to the Super Bowl, right, please,
Speaker 1: that's all.
Speaker 2: That's all you have to tell it. Please.
Speaker 1: Now, my homeboy, I had one homeboy, Bucket that it was.
Speaker 1: I heard Bucket names, so goddamn much. I feel like
Speaker 1: I know that's my dog.
Speaker 2: Then now him and Burns. But the team, so they're
Speaker 2: gonna be in Vegas? No, hell no, hell nona.
Speaker 1: So you know I had a ticket. I had a
Speaker 1: ticket for one of my homeboys. But something came up.
Speaker 1: That's something would discuss in the later day time. He
Speaker 1: wasn't able ten and so I had two tickets. I said, brother, Bucket,
Speaker 1: I got a ticket for you and my other homeboy.
Speaker 1: Now I ain't got nothing for your wife. Hey, you
Speaker 1: had to let it know. No no, no, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: no no no no no no, you ain't getting thought,
Speaker 1: you get you, you and you and my other homeboy. Well,
Speaker 1: my other homeboy wasn't able to come. Something came up.
Speaker 2: He hit me up.
Speaker 1: He said, man, such and such and not gonna be
Speaker 1: able to come. Can I use the other ticket for
Speaker 1: my wife? I said, hell, yeah, okay, But as long
Speaker 1: long as it was free, long as it was free.
Speaker 1: Anytime it was close right Jacksonville, he would come to Jacksonville,
Speaker 1: he would drive close by.
Speaker 2: He ain't got a whole lot at the time, he
Speaker 2: was a police officer.
Speaker 1: Then he laid to work for ATF so he ain't
Speaker 1: like he making a hard ton of money to be
Speaker 1: able to put himself up and come.
Speaker 2: So I always took care of me.
Speaker 1: But but in a situation like that, oh Joe, you know,
Speaker 1: like I said, the super Bowl, that's a special occasion.
Speaker 1: My mom come to everyone. And at the time my
Speaker 1: step pops Pops came with my mom. So I gotta
Speaker 1: fly him. But I'm feeding everybody every day. I'm playing
Speaker 1: for entertainment every day. And the hotel room and the flight.
Speaker 1: So like I said, I spent probably I probably spent
Speaker 1: like thirty grand for the entirety of the trip.
Speaker 2: But everybody and we won all of them, so everybody
Speaker 2: had a really good time, right, And you know it's funny,
Speaker 2: I'm sitting here talking. I'm not even realizing.
Speaker 3: When I was with the Patriots we made the Super Bowl. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I'm not even realizing. And obviously, you know what little
Speaker 3: CJ was there, My daughter was there, the mom, Grandma,
Speaker 3: no g Grandma, grandma, grandma, Yeah she was.
Speaker 2: She wasn't able to travel at that point. No mom.
Speaker 3: You know, me and Mom, we didn't see. We weren't
Speaker 3: seeing eyed eye during that time. You know, her and
Speaker 3: I have a whole Listen. There's a reason we call
Speaker 3: a hurricane, Paula. You know, that's the reason we call
Speaker 3: it that. So we weren't seeing eyed eye during during
Speaker 3: that time. And you know, it wasn't much.
Speaker 2: Your kids was there? Two? Three? Maybe maybe three? No, two,
Speaker 2: I think it was CJ and G.
Speaker 1: But you had to have somebody to take care of them,
Speaker 1: because hell you couldn't. Yeah, because I had who I
Speaker 1: was seeing, got a practice, you gotta do it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it during that time. Your girlfriend at the time.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so I didn't. I ain't spend nothing close to
Speaker 3: what you did. Nothing, nothing close.
Speaker 1: And obviously you have to think you get one, so
Speaker 1: you probably had one hotel room probably.
Speaker 2: Probably that was it.
Speaker 3: And then you have to also think, like why is
Speaker 3: everybody flying? And you understand I wasn't the same Chad
Speaker 3: that we used to seeing. So it ain't like I'm
Speaker 3: forna come out here and be god there, maybe have
Speaker 3: an opportunity to win goddamn m VP of this damn
Speaker 3: super like. So let' let's slow down a little bit,
Speaker 3: talk about what I'm coming to watch you play? Well, ship,
Speaker 3: I ain't do nothing do in the regular seats. I'm
Speaker 3: not sure you're expecting this one goddamn game. So yeah,
Speaker 3: it kind of didn't make sense, you know, full effect,
Speaker 3: and when I look at it in ninsight, so I
Speaker 3: mean it was cool, but I ain't spend nothing like that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And so the thing was, oh Joe, I ended
Speaker 1: up like for the flight because I didn't have all like,
Speaker 1: I only used one one seat on the plane, so
Speaker 1: I didn't. Well, I had a friend my name was
Speaker 1: Sharing and she did everything for me. She cleaned the house,
Speaker 1: she did all the shopping, she did all the washing,
Speaker 1: and rest her soul. That was my dog Sharon. I
Speaker 1: could come. She was like my aunt and she had
Speaker 1: her face, was her credentials. He could go anywhere in
Speaker 1: the stadium and they had to show no ID. They
Speaker 1: let her in the stadium.
Speaker 2: They knew were good.
Speaker 1: She's sharing people. She good, her and her daughter. I
Speaker 1: got them on the plane. I got them. I got
Speaker 1: them tickets. So but other than that, and then for
Speaker 1: the most part, I ended up giving my seats away.
Speaker 1: Go hey, bro, you need he I got you know
Speaker 1: you got X amount of seats. Hey, go ahead, bro,
Speaker 1: I ain't got nobody. I ain't flying my family, my

Speaker 2: I'm not. I wouldn't tell nobody that life.
Speaker 3: Listen, even even if you're not easy to deal with, right,
Speaker 3: everybody come with baggage. You know, it's all about finding
Speaker 3: that one person based on the life you want to live,
Speaker 3: the willingness to unpack that baggage, unpack that baggage at
Speaker 3: the time. Listen, you're a dog and I ain't. I'm
Speaker 3: just saying hype of things. If I was a woman,

Speaker 3: I'm gonna have to just do it.
Speaker 2: Oh no, no, no no.
Speaker 1: You just to baggage, Jojo. I came with more baggage
Speaker 1: than the dew To airline you could be.

Speaker 3: because you Oh sh my bad, I'm bad.
Speaker 2: But you're a good dude. A you're good dude.
Speaker 3: Listen, you mean well, I have well because when when
Speaker 3: somebody needs you, based on the stories, you're gonna always
Speaker 3: be there for sure.
Speaker 2: If you can always no no, no, no, that's not everybody.
Speaker 2: You need to be cool. You need to be cool
Speaker 2: with me.
Speaker 3: That that's what I'm talking about. But but you got
Speaker 3: to we come about people you are intimate with. You understand,
Speaker 3: if you cool with me, we're gonna always be cool.
Speaker 3: Because my number one thing is protect the brand.
Speaker 1: I said, because as the brand goes away, Shannon's gonna
Speaker 1: go away, and I can't do what you asked me
Speaker 1: to do for you.
Speaker 2: So that's number one. You've got to protect the brand.
Speaker 1: And so if you cool with me. And like I said,
Speaker 1: when them kids came, my mom came. They came on
Speaker 1: a Thursday. My mom, my sister came over. She brought
Speaker 1: the kid, They brought the kids. Oh we want to
Speaker 1: because that was the last time I was gonna see
Speaker 1: the kids until after the game.
Speaker 2: They weren't gonna be running, they weren't gonna be.
Speaker 1: I wasn't gonna be coming over to the hotel and
Speaker 1: hanging out and doing all that stuff and splashing in
Speaker 1: the pool.
Speaker 2: I the festivities and all that other stuff that's for families.
Speaker 2: I came down.
Speaker 1: My event was gonna happen at six thirty on Sunday night,
Speaker 1: and everybody understood that. And her job, my girlfriend job,
Speaker 1: was to make it as easy as possible on my
Speaker 1: mom and my sister. So when the kids wanted to
Speaker 1: go to a sea world to see share move, don't
Speaker 1: Sandy gonna do? Don't she got me gone, no hesitation.
Speaker 1: My mom m doing whatever they want to do. Hey,
Speaker 1: you got the keyids right. And so when it came
Speaker 1: time for us to go our separate ways, she came
Speaker 1: to me like a woman.
Speaker 2: I'm good with that. On Joe, I'm good with that.
Speaker 2: I see, let me tell you.
Speaker 3: I'm telling I'm trying to explain to you why I'm
Speaker 3: not good with it because as women, I think women
Speaker 3: at times they think that I would be able to
Speaker 3: find what it is I have right now or better
Speaker 3: if I move on, and I think they don't understand
Speaker 3: it's very difficult to find someone like yourself that you
Speaker 3: can always count on. Now, there might be some things
Speaker 3: that you don't like that we can work through and
Speaker 3: get by, but always having someone you can count on
Speaker 3: twenty four to seven, come hillo high water. It's very
Speaker 3: difficult to find someone that's loyal. Yeah, a good person.
Speaker 2: They're gonna be some issues, you know, we all have
Speaker 2: our issues.
Speaker 3: Yeah, And I'm telling you, man, it's it's dangerous, ot
Speaker 3: dare and it's real thin.
Speaker 2: It's real thin.
Speaker 3: I just think the mindset of women at times is like,
Speaker 3: you know what, I can find this again because look
Speaker 3: I'm pretty, or look at me, I got a shape,
Speaker 3: or look at me I got asked.
Speaker 2: You know if I've done that. It's quantity.
Speaker 3: It's quantity, but quality of what you're looking for is
Speaker 3: very difficult to find. And it sometimes women have to
Speaker 3: learn the hard way because they hard headed. For they
Speaker 3: thing based on aesthetics and the visual. I'll be able
Speaker 3: to find it again. But what comes with that is
Speaker 3: the games that women have to deal with women. You're
Speaker 3: you're a straight shooter. Yeah, o Jo, it's good to
Speaker 3: have a straight shooter. What do you like a Magnum
Speaker 3: three fifty seven?
Speaker 1: Do you know how many women I look over because
Speaker 1: I saw something more aesthetically pleasing and I left the
Speaker 1: best woman that I had just because I saw something
Speaker 1: more aesthetically pleasing.
Speaker 2: Now you can't do that.
Speaker 1: So that's why I don't get upset when a woman
Speaker 1: comes to me and tell me she wants to go on.
Speaker 2: I like the where you put that, not not that
Speaker 2: give down.
Speaker 3: Okay, I feel a little better now because you done
Speaker 3: made the same mistake too. You know what, I feel
Speaker 3: a little better, Oh Joe, you I'm just honestly speaking.
Speaker 3: You are you made that mistake leaving a leaving a
Speaker 3: good woman for something.
Speaker 2: That looks better aesthetically and plead. Okay, y okay, okay, okay.
Speaker 1: And so I told I told my girlfriend. I said
Speaker 1: I'm not happy. I said I'm miserable in my own home.
Speaker 1: I said, I have a headache all the time, always
Speaker 1: do it argue. I said, I want to be with
Speaker 1: somebody else, and I'm gonna go find them.
Speaker 2: It ain't not there.
Speaker 3: I'm telling you, man, well you know through experience, I
Speaker 3: ain't got to tell you nothing. I wasn't gonna I
Speaker 3: was gonna sit here in priest to you just you know.
Speaker 3: I know it's Sunday, but I don't already know. Oh boy,
Speaker 3: come on now, come on now.
Speaker 1: And so like I said, I I've made the mistake, oacho,
Speaker 1: And I'm not perfect, and I don't sit here and
Speaker 1: proclaim to be perfect. And I don't say, you know,
Speaker 1: oh all shit, no no, no, no, no, Shanna didn't
Speaker 1: leave everybody. Women have left Shannon Sharp. And that's okay,
Speaker 1: that's that is perfectly okay, right because they made they
Speaker 1: made me better, and they made me look internal at
Speaker 1: some of the blow and I fixed some of them, right, well,
Speaker 1: we got some more to work on. I fixed some
Speaker 1: of them, but like the most dilapidated the buildings, I'm
Speaker 1: still under repair.
Speaker 2: And I'm okay with that. Hey that was nice. That
Speaker 2: was a bar right there. That was nasty.
Speaker 3: Hey, I've been watching this. I've been watching battle rap man.
Speaker 3: I've gotten the battle rap, real real, real heavy, and
Speaker 3: that was a bar.
Speaker 2: I was a bar that was filthy.
Speaker 1: I like that, you know, back of my day when
Speaker 1: I used to write, when I used to write love letters,
Speaker 1: O Joe, you know your boy, back of the day.
Speaker 2: Without the high school you know, high school, early in college. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: junior high you used to write love letters.
Speaker 1: Hot like college, uh college and uh like late like
Speaker 1: like late high school, early college.
Speaker 3: It's how I know you're a good dude. You know,
Speaker 3: you know what it takes for a man to be
Speaker 3: able to sit down and to put thought in a
Speaker 3: sum on paper and.
Speaker 2: Use the pen. That is that that's that genuine, that's that.
Speaker 3: Notebook type of I'm really I'm really feeling you, and
Speaker 3: I'm going to express my feelings and my thoughts through
Speaker 3: paper instead of communicating it.
Speaker 1: Sometimes because sometimes I could, I could, I could write
Speaker 1: down what I couldn't say to the young lady in person.
Speaker 3: It makes it that much easier because now everybody, everybody's
Speaker 3: not equipped to be able to say or communicate some
Speaker 3: of the things they're feeling and being able to express
Speaker 3: it verbally. It's very difficult at times, especially if it's
Speaker 3: someone you just met, you know, you. You kind of
Speaker 3: don't want to open up like that and be a
Speaker 3: little bit too vulnerable too soon until you understand that
Speaker 3: the reciprocation is there.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, start that thing off.
Speaker 1: You know, time and opportunity presents itself that I take
Speaker 1: this time that I tell you just how special you
Speaker 1: are to me.
Speaker 2: You know, I'll tell you what I told you. Hey, bro,
Speaker 2: I like that. I like that.
Speaker 1: You know what, I'm gonna put that in. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: put that in my bowl. That's how I'm start my
Speaker 1: vow that my wedding. Yes, so I like that, don't Joe,
Speaker 1: you boy back in the day, oh your band? You know, Hey,
Speaker 1: you and that boy. That's that's why I still can't.
Speaker 1: I can't figure out where they left.
Speaker 3: Now.
Speaker 2: Guarantee listen, I guarantee this.
Speaker 3: I guarantee this, and it's a non but it's not
Speaker 3: really disrespect those in your past. I said, I bet
Speaker 3: if they look at the review mill, they'll put that
Speaker 3: motherfucker in reverse.
Speaker 2: I bet that.
Speaker 3: I bet if those that left you, if they look
Speaker 3: in the review mill, I guarantee you, they put.
Speaker 2: That motherfucker car reverse right now. Well, you know what, Joe,
Speaker 2: I had an.
Speaker 1: Ex today and we had and we hadn't been together

Speaker 1: she hit me up. In time to time I hit
Speaker 1: her up to check on us, to make sure everything's okay.

Speaker 1: have different different situations. You've been married. I said, this
Speaker 1: is what I know for one hundred certainty, for categorically,
Speaker 1: for certainty.
Speaker 2: I said, other men's might have had your body, but
Speaker 2: I've always had your heart. Come on, give me the bars.
Speaker 1: Still their text back, saying, as much as I wanted
Speaker 1: to hate you, and I've tried for.
Speaker 2: So long, always have my heart. Well I got to
Speaker 2: stand up on it.
Speaker 1: But she wasn't telling me anything that I didn't already know.
Speaker 1: I know so much, Vitrio. I knew why she put
Speaker 1: so much vitriof towards me and did the things that
Speaker 1: she did because you loved me.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I see, Remember I said this in the show
Speaker 3: not too long ago. Remember I said this in the
Speaker 3: show not too long ago, Phyllis, you're always dealing with somebody,
Speaker 3: You always dealing thet woman. She You might have her physically,
Speaker 3: but there's a guy from her past. There's a guy
Speaker 3: from her past that will always have access. I have
Speaker 3: half her mentally up here, no matter what, no matter,
Speaker 3: no matter how happy she is.
Speaker 2: Remember I told you that.
Speaker 3: I told you that, and you just explained the situation
Speaker 3: right there. Well, yeah, I'm a wake her ass up
Speaker 3: because everybody, everybody got one. Everybody got one. If you're
Speaker 3: in the chat women, if you're listening and you just
Speaker 3: heard the explanation that just told tell me, I lie,
Speaker 3: there's always somebody, even even if they don't reach out
Speaker 3: to you, there's always somebody.
Speaker 1: I mean, look, I remember the first time a woman
Speaker 1: actually took me on vacation. It was her. I said,
Speaker 1: I said, I ain't took you. Yes, let that go
Speaker 1: Saint the Virgin Isle of Saint Thomas. I said, baby,
Speaker 1: I ain't got I said, baby, I ain't got no money.
Speaker 1: I said, I ain't got no money. She said, I
Speaker 1: got this hotel, food, I ain't pay for nothing. That's
Speaker 1: the one all all I was was a plumber for
Speaker 1: the whole weekend. Hey, young, that's all I was that
Speaker 1: when you playing quart a five dollar hour, Yeah, that's
Speaker 1: all you playing for plumbing service on THEO because you know,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. I ain't hadn't been. I
Speaker 1: hadn't been out of the country. I mean I don't
Speaker 1: Thomas is theoretically side of the continental. But anyway, I
Speaker 1: hadn't been nowhere.
Speaker 2: Old Choe. Yeah, she put it on.
Speaker 3: Hey, it ain't too many like that, now hold on,
Speaker 3: let me let me, let me let so you can
Speaker 3: see my head. Now, ye ain't too many like that.
Speaker 3: That's gonna pay for you. That really got you because
Speaker 3: you know women they looking for provider.
Speaker 2: We know what that means. We know that's cold far Yeah,
Speaker 2: I say, but like.
Speaker 1: I said, look, I've been in situations and and seemingly
Speaker 1: what I had wasn't enough, and and I think the
Speaker 1: thing is now is being able to accept enough, right right,
Speaker 1: so at least appreciating what you gotta have. But back
Speaker 1: but you know, oh, show you back then. I'm nineteen
Speaker 1: twenty twenty two. Yeah, yeah, yeah, YEAHA man, please you.
Speaker 3: Listen when you're young is one of the things that
Speaker 3: that that is going to get the younger generation as well.
Speaker 3: It's always thinking that I can always get better and
Speaker 3: I could always attain better. And you know what, all
Speaker 3: that goal or all that glitters ain't going because the
Speaker 3: higher up you go, and women love to say this
Speaker 3: is well, women love to say, oh, I'm gonna get
Speaker 3: a man with a bigger bag, or I'm gonna get
Speaker 3: a man that's richer than you. I'm gonna get somebody
Speaker 3: that looks better than you. But always understand what comes
Speaker 3: with that. There's always pros and.
Speaker 2: Cons to everything.
Speaker 3: As you continue to want to climb the ladder and
Speaker 3: whatever it is that you do or whatever it is
Speaker 3: you're trying to attain, there's always a con and a
Speaker 3: bad side to it. Yes, outside of the pleasing aesthetics
Speaker 3: that we're used to seeing. And the question is we
Speaker 3: don't we were stuck in the now. We don't think
Speaker 3: long term? But nothing, Yeah, we don't think long term?
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I bet, like I said, don't you I look back
Speaker 1: and I said, man, what was I I mean, I
Speaker 1: have my moments because I spend a lot of time
Speaker 1: alone just men and the dogs, and I'm all alone
Speaker 1: in my thoughts and I go back and I'm paying
Speaker 1: over the course of thirty five forty years of my.
Speaker 2: Life and saying.
Speaker 1: That was that there they have been, Like, honestly, I
Speaker 1: can honestly say there have been free free mm hmm,
Speaker 1: that I should that that no question should have been
Speaker 1: miss mister Sharp, no question.
Speaker 3: We all got the Okay, well you So if you
Speaker 3: were someone that asked you the question, do you have
Speaker 3: somebody in your life?
Speaker 2: You know what?
Speaker 3: Damn she was the one that got away. So you
Speaker 3: got three of those? Yeah, you got three of them? Okay, okay,
Speaker 3: and that you know, that's that's dope. That you could
Speaker 3: be honest about that too.
Speaker 2: Oh for sure. That's that's real dope because a.
Speaker 3: Lot a lot of people would be like, ah, nah,
Speaker 3: I don't need nobody from my past. They are ex
Speaker 3: for they are ex for a reason. But there are
Speaker 3: there are some good people that we have lost we
Speaker 3: left behind. Yeah, the due the circumstance, whether it be pride,
Speaker 3: whether it be ego, or feeling that we could find
Speaker 3: better than that.
Speaker 2: And most of the time we're not successful in doing so.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I and and and actually one of them
Speaker 1: was the one that played that Michelle and dego Cello song, Oh, okay, okay,
Speaker 1: But I remember she told me this early in our relationship,
Speaker 1: and she said, Shannon, and I remember her and I
Speaker 1: was having a conversation. She said, says, Shannon, You're the
Speaker 1: worst thing that's ever happened to me. And I'm looking,
Speaker 1: I'm like, what y'am? She says, Shanna, I'm never going
Speaker 1: to meet a man like you. I'm not gonna meet
Speaker 1: somebody as disciplined, as hard working, as funny, as driven,
Speaker 1: as motivated. She says, I'm not gonna meet that. She says,
Speaker 1: I know, she says, Shannon, I know that. She says,
Speaker 1: I know you was a lifetime man. But she says,
Speaker 1: I also know you're not ready for what I'm ready for.
Speaker 1: She says, I I will take it. I will take
Speaker 1: it for what it's worth. I'm gonna have, I'm gonna have,
Speaker 1: We're gonna have as much fun. But she says, I
Speaker 1: know it's gonna stop. She said, because you're not ready
Speaker 1: for what I'm ready for.
Speaker 3: Now, say you know what when you when you when
Speaker 3: you talk like that, and based on what you're saying,
Speaker 3: I notice is the older woman, This is a seasoned woman.
Speaker 2: This was someone that was that type of maturity. Yes, yes,
Speaker 2: oh Joe, Now you talk about look here talking like that.
Speaker 2: Oh she was. I mean when I think.
Speaker 3: Everything, everything you just said sounds like a season vet
Speaker 3: that don't want to play no more games.
Speaker 2: That was done with the game. I'm not sticking around
Speaker 2: for him to change.
Speaker 1: Where I was in my life. Yeah, and what I
Speaker 1: had going on, Yeah, it was just I wasn't ready
Speaker 1: for what she could offer, and she was. When I
Speaker 1: say she, look I'm talking about said, there's only been
Speaker 1: a hand I've had women that I can have conversation
Speaker 1: with and we laugh and we talk. And there's one
Speaker 1: right now that's that's that's really special. And I've really
Speaker 1: never had the chemistry with her with with someone else
Speaker 1: like I've had with her. But she's in a different situation.
Speaker 1: She's in her situation and I'm happy for and I
Speaker 1: wish them the best of love. But this situation that
Speaker 1: I'm talking about old Joe right right right, I'm talking about.
Speaker 2: Laughing and talking and just carrying on.
Speaker 1: I mean, get on the phone and we could talk
Speaker 1: hours and all we do is talk about and it's nothing.
Speaker 1: You know, we're cracking jokes, we're making fun uh. We
Speaker 1: go to a restaurant and I asked her that we
Speaker 1: go in there. It's like okay, And I was like,
Speaker 1: excuse me, will you guys let me bring my horse in?

Speaker 3: in the highest of situations.
Speaker 2: He'll be fine. He'll be fine again.
Speaker 3: It's unfortunate, especially for your father, to to not learn
Speaker 3: from the past two times. That's what mistakes make, and
Speaker 3: as a father, I would think you would at this point.
Speaker 3: You want to get an uber. You want to get
Speaker 3: uber if you're inee braated, if you're drinking, if you
Speaker 3: assume an alcohol, if you're out somewhere, don't even drive yourself.
Speaker 2: Have a driver.
Speaker 3: Obviously, you have a son that we already know that
Speaker 3: is completely well off. Talk to your son, Pat, have
Speaker 3: a talk with dad. Listen, Pops. If you want to
Speaker 3: go out, if you want to have fun, let me
Speaker 3: get a car service for you, let me get a
Speaker 3: driver for you. That's really nothing, you know. To make
Speaker 3: sure issues of this extent don't happen again. I think
Speaker 3: that's something that they should do going forward so they
Speaker 3: don't have to deal with this again, because obviously it's
Speaker 3: sustained on the family and it's going to affect It's
Speaker 3: not going to affect Pat on the field, but off
Speaker 3: the field, having to deal with the media, having to
Speaker 3: deal with the scrutiny, having to deal with everyone in
Speaker 3: their personal family business.
Speaker 1: It's a bad Look, any time someone in the family
Speaker 1: becomes more prominent, high profile, everybody have to move differently,
Speaker 1: Patrick Mahoone Senor your son is Patrick Mahomes Junior.
Speaker 2: You can't move the same way you once could. You
Speaker 2: just can't.
Speaker 1: Oh yo, I understood that my brother now was Erling
Speaker 1: Sharp and he's the seventh pick in the NFL draft
Speaker 1: of the Green Bay Praca.
Speaker 2: All that strifle and stuff that I wanted.
Speaker 1: To do, oh that I was doing before, I couldn't
Speaker 1: do it anymore because they're gonna say the younger brother
Speaker 1: of All Pro packer receiver Sterling Shark, Shannon Shark, was
Speaker 1: arrested or come home, Patrick mahone Senior. Yeah, yeah, I
Speaker 1: mean clearly he has an issue. I mean there's no
Speaker 1: other way around it. And I hope he hopefully he
Speaker 1: gets that resolved and not not put himself because he lucky.
Speaker 1: Because remember Andy Reed's son had a dw I three
Speaker 1: days before the Super Bowl fifty five crashing his crashing
Speaker 1: into a broken down car on the roadside and the
Speaker 1: crash left a five year girl in a carlla for ten.
Speaker 2: Days and he was permanently disabled. My goodness, And.
Speaker 1: So you you like I said a lot of times
Speaker 1: people think, well, oh, it just it was just the
Speaker 1: d nobody was hurt, right, But I mean the times
Speaker 1: have we heard situations where people was hurt. Henry Ruggs alcohol,
Speaker 1: driving at a high rate of speed, slams into a
Speaker 1: car doing over one hundred and twenty miles an hour.
Speaker 1: She's dead, his NFL career, he's in jail. Yeah, let
Speaker 1: her little involuntary manslaughter, ram ram Let little Yes from Florida,
Speaker 1: from Florida. Yes, I made alahamicide. Dante did Dante Stalwart.
Speaker 2: I mean, I forgot. I don't even remember these situations.
Speaker 2: That's crazy.
Speaker 1: I just had that put himself in that situation. He
Speaker 1: put himself in it. He put himself in that situation.
Speaker 1: And like you said, oh show. But here's the thing,
Speaker 1: oh Joe, you and I you and his dad was
Speaker 1: a professional athlete. The one thing about athletes is that
Speaker 1: we don't think it's gonna happen to us what has
Speaker 1: already happened twice. So you can't you can't be thinking
Speaker 1: like that it's already happened twice. Yes, you think you're
Speaker 1: thinking invincible based on the situation and the circumstance that
Speaker 1: you're in now, Pat Mahomes, where if I am if
Speaker 1: someone does stop me, you know what if you're slapped
Speaker 1: on the wrist.
Speaker 2: Listen, mister Mahomes Senior. You can be out here driving
Speaker 2: like that. Okay, they let you go. You can get it.
Speaker 3: You can get away with a lot of things based
Speaker 3: on who your son is right now, But you're run
Speaker 3: into that one officer, right that one officer who wants
Speaker 3: that credit. He wants to be you know, the talk,
Speaker 3: the talk of the town in the department. But were
Speaker 3: you the one that they're looking for that? But again,
Speaker 3: there's a problem that he might have. But there's a
Speaker 3: there's a solution to it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, hey, yeah, hey, look if my and my dad,
Speaker 1: my dad was a was an alcoholic, but had he
Speaker 1: been alive, yeah, to see me and my brother play,
Speaker 1: you could have tried to get him out.
Speaker 2: But if he couldn't, Hey, hey, dad, they're a car.
Speaker 2: You don't drive?
Speaker 1: You got a car, but don't you Because I'm a
Speaker 1: spitting image of my dad. I looked just I looked
Speaker 1: just like my dad. But and I'm gonna have somebody
Speaker 1: with it now. I'm gonna fire your ass if you
Speaker 1: let my daddy get behind the wheel real. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: your responsibility is to make sure he gets too in
Speaker 1: front you driving.
Speaker 3: M But listen, the funny thing is, I have a
Speaker 3: little experience when it comes to having a parent that
Speaker 3: that love, that likes to drink, that loves to drink. Obviously,
Speaker 3: on my end, you know, it wasn't she didn't like
Speaker 3: to drink and drive at the same time, but she
Speaker 3: would drink and it would affect our relationships.
Speaker 2: So you know you asked me earlier.
Speaker 3: You know, with your mom at the super Bowl, for hell,
Speaker 3: it was hard to deal with her and be around
Speaker 3: her more than goddamn two or three goddamn hours because
Speaker 3: of her consumption of alcohol.
Speaker 2: And for those that don't know, we did.
Speaker 3: Matter of fact, just to give a small a small
Speaker 3: glimpse of you never met my mama. I think the
Speaker 3: world got a chance to see who she was and
Speaker 3: see what I had to deal with my mom and I.
Speaker 3: She was an alcoholic. She drunk a lot, drunk a lot,
Speaker 3: you know, to the point where my grandma is. You know,
Speaker 3: my grandma raised me for that specific reason. Obviously, I
Speaker 3: can tell y'all because we're all family. The drug use,
Speaker 3: the alcohol and abuse in it, so my grandma was like, listen,
Speaker 3: you leaving this little boy here with me and you
Speaker 3: can go ahead, and my mom moved off to La.
Speaker 3: That's how I ended up at Centemonic, right, Okay, back
Speaker 3: to the story. So dealing with her is she would
Speaker 3: always consume alcohol, and this might be one of the
Speaker 3: reasons why I never drink. She would always consume alcohol,
Speaker 3: and then she would become someone I didn't even know. Right,
Speaker 3: she would become someone I didn't even know, and I
Speaker 3: couldn't quite understand why you're always angry. You can't be
Speaker 3: angry at me because I didn't do anything wrong. But
Speaker 3: then my grandma always having to explain to me, baby,
Speaker 3: this is what happens when she drinks boom along with
Speaker 3: other things. So I kind of empathize in a sense
Speaker 3: with pat because I was still able to play regardless
Speaker 3: what was going on in my personal life and dealing
Speaker 3: with her.
Speaker 2: Right, So it's like it's.
Speaker 3: Crazy and one of the reasons she got the name
Speaker 3: Hurricane Paula because when she does alcohol, she becomes just that.
Speaker 2: It's a hurricane, right, It's a hurricane.
Speaker 3: And we had we had a funny, funny thing with
Speaker 3: friends of mine throughout the years, you're really not a
Speaker 3: friend of mine, or you ain't been around long enough.
Speaker 3: If you haven't been cursed out by my mama, if
Speaker 3: you ain't been cursed out by mama, you aren't really
Speaker 3: a friend of mine because you ain't been around long enough.
Speaker 2: My kids got it. I got it.
Speaker 3: Anybody I dated got it, my coaches got it, my
Speaker 3: friends got it, everybody, my teachers got it, everybody. And
Speaker 3: it was hard to even have her around important events
Speaker 3: because I boy listen my mama, and I wanted to
Speaker 3: help my mama the same way I'm sure Pat wants
Speaker 3: to help his dad. So I say, you know what,
Speaker 3: the opportunity to present itself. Well, not only we can
Speaker 3: we can make a little money. I can get you
Speaker 3: some change, but we're gonna go on the show with
Speaker 3: some doctors. We did marriage boot Camp and chat. If
Speaker 3: you haven't seen Marriage boot Camp. Family addition, between me
Speaker 3: and my mom watched that. When you get some and
Speaker 3: you'll understand who she really was, because you know, most
Speaker 3: of the time you had FEL members going camera and
Speaker 3: they put on and be someone that they're not.
Speaker 2: They put on their representative because the world is watching.
Speaker 2: Me and my mom went on that show.
Speaker 3: The whole point was to try to mend our relationship
Speaker 3: and find a way to make things work because and
Speaker 3: figure out what's wrong with her past. They offered places
Speaker 3: she can go, They offered the rehab. Every morning she
Speaker 3: woke up, what's the first thing you think she would
Speaker 3: have gotten to drink? Something to drink, and they purposely
Speaker 3: allowed her to drink and drink and drink, and un man,
Speaker 3: that woman stole the show. That woman stole the show.
Speaker 3: And obviously I let people that want to go back
Speaker 3: and watch it and see who Hurricane Paula was. Cust
Speaker 3: everybody out on the show, cust out the producers, cust
Speaker 3: out the cast mates, and we didn't end up finishing
Speaker 3: the show because she cussed everybody out. She cussed everybody
Speaker 3: out and left the show before it ended. And from
Speaker 3: that point on, with me trying to help, there was
Speaker 3: really nothing I could do because she wasn't even trying
Speaker 3: to help herself. And maybe my mama passed. She just
Speaker 3: passed in twenty twenty one, which you think she died from.
Speaker 1: M probably scoliosis, hard soorrosis, not scoliosis sorosis.
Speaker 3: Alcohol poisonous YEP, alcohol poisoning and so that's that's just
Speaker 3: the story with pat and it kind of resonated to
Speaker 3: me in a sense, not to the sense of her
Speaker 3: getting in trouble and arrested, but dealing with someone who
Speaker 3: liked to consume alcohol and there's really no way to
Speaker 3: control it. Even when you try to get him help them,
Speaker 3: they just they just won't listen.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I don't understand why people like giving up control like that, Ojoe.
Speaker 1: I mean, I think I think for us, especially like me,
Speaker 1: I gotta be in control. I don't like you knows.
Speaker 1: I can only say There's been one time that I
Speaker 1: kind of lost control, but I was able to regain it,
Speaker 1: and that was the Lakers situation at that game. But
Speaker 1: I don't like being out of control, Lojo, right, are you.
Speaker 2: You think you think you was? I was like, nah, yeah,
Speaker 2: I'm glad drink. No, I wouldn't drink hell now, So
Speaker 2: you were good? Yeah I was a hood Yeah yeah,
Speaker 2: no I wasn't. No, no, no, no no.
Speaker 1: That's that's one of the reasons, you know, I think
Speaker 1: because my father was an alcoholic also, and he ended
Speaker 1: up he ended up having both jawbones removed, ended up
Speaker 1: having a he ended up dying at when I was
Speaker 1: thirteen years of age, and uh, I saw him once
Speaker 1: to actually know who I was looking at. I saw
Speaker 1: him when I was in I think the first the kindergarten,
Speaker 1: first grade. I saw him in first grade. And the
Speaker 1: next time I saw him, he didn't know I was
Speaker 1: looking at him. His face was like a looking glass.
Speaker 1: I was just looking down and staring at him, and
Speaker 1: he didn't. He didn't look nothing like the man that
Speaker 1: I remember seeing all those years ago. But that's what
Speaker 1: the drinking had done to him. That's what the surgery
Speaker 1: of having both of his jaw bones removed, and why
Speaker 1: he didn't want to come because he said told my grandma,
Speaker 1: grandma child, that he didn't want his kids to see
Speaker 1: him in this kind of condition. Okay, okay, but what
Speaker 1: he didn't realize. I just wanted to see my father.
Speaker 1: It wasn't the conditions. It was the that I wanted
Speaker 1: to see and what I would give to have if
Speaker 1: I could just have him and my grandfather, Barney Porta,
Speaker 1: the one that raised me and him, just just to
Speaker 1: see see what me and my brother became, just for
Speaker 1: one day right now that it Yeah, I would love
Speaker 1: to see years and years, but just for one day. Yeah,
Speaker 1: to see what me and my brother became. That would
Speaker 1: probably be that would top any day, any.
Speaker 2: Day Pro Bowl, Hall of Fame.
Speaker 1: This for them to see that, because I remember my
Speaker 1: grandfather and my grandmother was because remember I told you,
Speaker 1: o Joe, my grandfather and grandmother didn't see sleep in
Speaker 1: the same bed. My grandfather and my brother slept over here,
Speaker 1: and me and my grandmother slept over there, and they
Speaker 1: were having a conversation, and they they thought we were
Speaker 1: all out of sleep.
Speaker 2: I wasn't.
Speaker 1: This had to be about two o'clock in the morning.
Speaker 1: We didn't have a clock in the room, so I
Speaker 1: couldn't tell you, but I'm assuming it's probably around two
Speaker 1: oclock in the morning. And I remember him saying so vividly.
Speaker 1: He said, Mary, he said, I might be dead and gone,
Speaker 1: but them boys gonna make something. He said, They're so smart,
Speaker 1: they so attentive. They don't give us.
Speaker 2: No back talk. They don't talk back.
Speaker 1: I'm thinking to myself, man, do you understand the punishment
Speaker 1: and the rap that would rain down? And we were
Speaker 1: afraid to talk back. But he said, he said, and
Speaker 1: he said that young one, he said, Mary, that boy
Speaker 1: remember everything. He because we were we we was our
Speaker 1: dad's were our grandfather's no path because you know, back then,
Speaker 1: oh chi, I ain't nobody had no say, had no
Speaker 1: cell phone. So somebody told you their number. You just
Speaker 1: had to remember it. My grandfather, somebody would tell my
Speaker 1: grandfather get oh, hey, BARTI you know, I got a
Speaker 1: new number, or I got a fuck got a phone
Speaker 1: because there by the time didn't have phones. Hey bartiy
Speaker 1: I got it, I got a number, I got a
Speaker 1: new phone, I got a phone. Hey, telling to them boys.
Speaker 1: So it was my me and my brother's job to
Speaker 1: remember the phone number. And I just remember that, and
Speaker 1: that's up with me. Here I am five six years
Speaker 1: of age, and he could project into the future thirty year,
Speaker 1: twenty five years later that them two boys gonna make something.
Speaker 2: Man. That made me so That made me so proud
Speaker 2: to hear him say that.
Speaker 1: As I'm going, as I'm playing in high school, as
Speaker 1: I'm playing in college, and I'm playing in the NFL,
Speaker 1: and I'm thinking back, my grandfather saw this, and so
Speaker 1: to have my dad, my actual dad, and my grandfather,
Speaker 1: if only for one day, to see what I became,
Speaker 1: even if they don't see me play football, but just
Speaker 1: see the man that I became because I named my son.
Speaker 1: I named my son after my dad. But man o jo,
Speaker 1: that was I mean my grandparents and my grandparents didn't.
Speaker 1: I remember my grandfather got stopped by the state trooper.
Speaker 1: My grandfather was probably driving one hundred and twenty so
Speaker 1: got said licensed registration insurance. My grandfather reached in the
Speaker 1: glove box, handed it to it. He said, uh, mister
Speaker 1: porter said yeah. He said yeah. He said, uh, you've
Speaker 1: been drinking. My grandfather said yeah, about forty years ago. Boy,
Speaker 1: that's before your time, right, He said, yeah, it was,
Speaker 1: mister porter. He said, okay, now I'm gonna need you
Speaker 1: to slow it down. He said, okay, but I think
Speaker 1: my grandmother said that's why, you know, they started having
Speaker 1: kids and they stopped drinking. And I never obviously did
Speaker 1: drank communion, but we never had an alcohol in the house.
Speaker 1: But just to just to I just would want my
Speaker 1: grandfather and my dad to see what me and my
Speaker 1: brother became.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's it, you know what that that that's that's dope.
Speaker 3: And I always I've never thought about it like that
Speaker 3: because my mom, my mom was around to see, to
Speaker 3: see all of my success. I would love for to
Speaker 3: see how far I've come after falling, you know, uh
Speaker 3: off that mountaintop and the climb that I'm making to
Speaker 3: get back to where I fell from. But I would
Speaker 3: love to see would have been like what our relationship
Speaker 3: would have been like if she hadn't alcohol. I would
Speaker 3: love I would love you to be at every event
Speaker 3: I had. I would love you to be at games.
Speaker 3: I would love you to be at Red Carper stuff.
Speaker 3: I would love for you to travel. I would love
Speaker 3: for you to go to Pro Bowl, listen to games
Speaker 3: she did go to. She got into it with people
Speaker 3: and embarrass me. You know, the Red Carper stuff that
Speaker 3: I did take her to. You know, I got to
Speaker 3: get this drink before I put my clothes on.
Speaker 2: She embarrassed me. You know. So every time I will
Speaker 2: try to.
Speaker 3: Bring around those those events where your mother's supposed to
Speaker 3: be present as a reason on why you here as
Speaker 3: an example of you know, listen, I'd have made you proud.
Speaker 2: I need you front center, and all those instances, what
Speaker 2: does she do?
Speaker 3: Cut somebody out, put a hands on somebody, and these
Speaker 3: are times, well, these were suable offenses that she's done,
Speaker 3: and people kind of understood based on Okay, you know what,
Speaker 3: I don't think that's really her. I think the fact
Speaker 3: that she is consumed alcohol because you can spell it
Speaker 3: along with other things.
Speaker 2: But I'm not gonna I'm not I'm not gonna go there.
Speaker 2: There's no point for that.
Speaker 3: But you know, I got off a lot, and I
Speaker 3: think that's probably why I've never had alcohol before.
Speaker 2: And a lot of people don't believe me. A lot
Speaker 2: of people perception when you see the person oh yeah yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: yeah yeah.
Speaker 3: No, people think I'm wild. They think I club because
Speaker 3: they let that on field persona that I put on.
Speaker 3: But that want but a character I'll feel. I'm nothing
Speaker 3: like that, nothing like that. But that's enough for that far.
Speaker 3: I started crying like a little girl
