00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:07,880
Speaker 3: they always say when someone's assignment somewhere.

16
00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:10,039
Speaker 4: He needed a longer weekend.

17
00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:11,520
Speaker 3: I guess I don't know.

18
00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:15,760
Speaker 5: Yes, President's Day was not enough. I can only imagine that.

19
00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:18,039
Speaker 5: You know, he always we always get into it every time.

20
00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:22,240
Speaker 5: I assume that he's on the golf course, so I will, oh,

21
00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:23,160
Speaker 5: he's on assignment.

22
00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:28,319
Speaker 3: That works, right, I think it was more Oh, crap.

23
00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:35,200
Speaker 5: That's you think he forgot it in between Friday and Monday.

24
00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:36,880
Speaker 4: What time did his text come in?

25
00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:40,039
Speaker 3: It was at eight twenty I learned. That's what I

26
00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:44,240
Speaker 3: get my notification a reminder at eight thirty, thirty minutes

27
00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:46,880
Speaker 3: ahead of the show. He might have his set for

28
00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:50,040
Speaker 3: forty minutes ahead of the show. So that's what I'm thinking.

29
00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:54,960
Speaker 3: Heina didn't get here at the time, but we got

30
00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:55,800
Speaker 3: plenty to talk about.

31
00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:56,240
Speaker 2: Yes, we do.

32
00:01:56,240 --> 00:01:59,240
Speaker 3: In fact, I think it's sort of the kickoff to

33
00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:00,360
Speaker 3: the off season.

34
00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:03,680
Speaker 4: Because today is the first day you can franchise.

35
00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:09,000
Speaker 3: This is George Pickens Day. Now it stretches for a

36
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:11,720
Speaker 3: couple of weeks. The deadline day isn't for a couple

37
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:14,640
Speaker 3: of weeks March third, yeah, which is two weeks from today.

38
00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:18,280
Speaker 3: But this is the first day that teams can go

39
00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:22,679
Speaker 3: ahead and place the franchise or transition tag on a

40
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:26,000
Speaker 3: potential free agent. And so that's why it's it's a

41
00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:31,880
Speaker 3: George Pickens fortnite here. It's a two week time frame

42
00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:33,880
Speaker 3: before they have to make that decision.

43
00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:36,120
Speaker 4: There's no hurry, right, No, not two weeks.

44
00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:39,000
Speaker 3: No. I don't know why you would do it right

45
00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:40,359
Speaker 3: off the bat and anyway.

46
00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:42,520
Speaker 4: I don't either. Yeah, because you've got two weeks to

47
00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:49,680
Speaker 4: negotiate a long term deal, right right, right, Yeah, And

48
00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:54,000
Speaker 4: once the league year begins on March eleventh, if you

49
00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:57,280
Speaker 4: franchise them, then you got to account for twenty eight million.

50
00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:00,040
Speaker 4: So yeah, you want to.

51
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:02,360
Speaker 3: Kind of once he signs the franchise, Yeah.

52
00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:07,160
Speaker 4: Once he signs it. So yeah, and they've got some

53
00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:11,480
Speaker 4: work to do on the salary cap before they can

54
00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:15,919
Speaker 4: absorb absorb any of that. As a matter of fact.

55
00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:18,280
Speaker 3: Okay, sounds like you've been doing your homework.

56
00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:18,680
Speaker 2: I have.

57
00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:20,720
Speaker 3: Okay, we don't need to get into the nuts and

58
00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:21,360
Speaker 3: bolts now.

59
00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:24,600
Speaker 4: I'll just tell you they're over right now without the

60
00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:25,760
Speaker 4: twenty eight million.

61
00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:29,480
Speaker 3: And we don't know officially what the salary cap will be.

62
00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:34,679
Speaker 4: Should be between three hundred and three hundred and five.

63
00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:37,360
Speaker 3: Million, which is up twenty to twenty five million for

64
00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:40,000
Speaker 3: what it was last year, in which means the league

65
00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:40,880
Speaker 3: is doing very well.

66
00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:46,440
Speaker 5: Yes, league's doing great. What was it was it? What

67
00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:49,640
Speaker 5: was the bump from last season? Was it ten fifteen percent?

68
00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:54,320
Speaker 4: So it was to seventy eight h Yeah, I don't

69
00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:57,920
Speaker 4: know what that percentage is, but it bumps up quite

70
00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:02,080
Speaker 4: a bit. And they've got work to do to get under.

71
00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:03,600
Speaker 4: They're gonna have to.

72
00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:06,680
Speaker 3: It would be about a nine percent increase if he

73
00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:09,440
Speaker 3: goes up to third three oh five five.

74
00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:14,560
Speaker 2: Okay, a smartphone out you got? I like that Bill

75
00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:17,479
Speaker 2: I did.

76
00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:20,279
Speaker 3: I just did it only calculat but I don't know

77
00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:25,799
Speaker 3: if I did all right? I said came out as nine.

78
00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:27,520
Speaker 3: So yeah, that sounds close.

79
00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:33,080
Speaker 4: Which certainly helps the Cowboys. And they also have a

80
00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:38,880
Speaker 4: twenty million dollar rollover that was excess from last year. Uh,

81
00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:41,920
Speaker 4: most of it because they didn't have to spend all

82
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:46,240
Speaker 4: that money that they had set aside for Michael Parsons

83
00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:51,039
Speaker 4: uh before they traded them. So they've got that cushion there.

84
00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:53,960
Speaker 4: And then they are going to have to do the

85
00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:58,440
Speaker 4: restructure bonus with DAK, which they do every year. You're

86
00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:02,840
Speaker 4: gonna have to do it with CD. There's another one.

87
00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:07,239
Speaker 4: I think that Kenny Clark. They have to do something

88
00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:11,400
Speaker 4: with his uh, I think roster bonus that they have

89
00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:12,200
Speaker 4: to take care of.

90
00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:13,119
Speaker 3: Uh.

91
00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:16,160
Speaker 4: So they got some work to do, uh to create

92
00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:19,600
Speaker 4: enough room to get under the salary cap, because if

93
00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:22,120
Speaker 4: it started today, they'd be way over.

94
00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:25,360
Speaker 5: I think the mentality is is those those pieces have

95
00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:27,080
Speaker 5: to fall first, as you're talking about.

96
00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:37,520
Speaker 4: But what.

97
00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:43,360
Speaker 5: That's funny, just rolled out of bend.

98
00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:48,600
Speaker 2: That's funny. That is some funny stuff. They never he

99
00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:51,800
Speaker 2: never seems to amaze my man, brother pickens myself.

214
00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:55,319
Speaker 5: And I said, uh, what it means to me is

215
00:10:56,640 --> 00:11:03,520
Speaker 5: that I did something terribly wrong, against society, against.

216
00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:04,480
Speaker 2: A human and.

217
00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:09,520
Speaker 5: Over time I've been giving a second chance, and I

218
00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:13,240
Speaker 5: thank him for it. And maybe my kids can look

219
00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:15,920
Speaker 5: back one day and say, hey, man, my granddad boy.

220
00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:17,760
Speaker 2: He was an outlaw. You know he was.

221
00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:20,000
Speaker 5: He was a real minace of society. But look at

222
00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:23,160
Speaker 5: it he changed. Now that my kids, my grandkids don't

223
00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:26,760
Speaker 5: know that. My baby boy don't know me. My oldest

224
00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:29,080
Speaker 5: son know me. Trey, you know me because he was

225
00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:31,000
Speaker 5: aware of some of the things I did. But my

226
00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:33,720
Speaker 5: baby boy he have to read up on it. But

227
00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:37,679
Speaker 5: my grandkids, unless somebody walk up to him, somebody else, grandkids.

228
00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:39,720
Speaker 2: Say your dad was a granddad was an outlaw. They

229
00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:40,439
Speaker 2: won't even know.

230
00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:44,000
Speaker 5: But if they ever do look it up with these phones,

231
00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:47,920
Speaker 5: which one day they will, they'll say, hey, man, yeah,

232
00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:49,400
Speaker 5: and the president parted him.

233
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:52,800
Speaker 2: You know, he's he's clean, he's good, he's good to go.

234
00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:56,040
Speaker 5: It just proves over time twenty twenty five years that

235
00:11:56,360 --> 00:11:58,320
Speaker 5: if you change who you are and what you do

236
00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:01,560
Speaker 5: and how you walk in life, good things can happen.

237
00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:03,240
Speaker 5: That's what it means to me.

238
00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:04,560
Speaker 2: I mean now.

239
00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:06,480
Speaker 5: But it puts some pressure because I was thinking about

240
00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:07,480
Speaker 5: doing some bad things.

241
00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:13,640
Speaker 2: You can't do it. I can't do it for another

242
00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:14,640
Speaker 2: couple of years.

243
00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:19,080
Speaker 5: Yeah, that is That is outstanding, man, And it couldn't

244
00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:23,520
Speaker 5: have for me having a personal relationship with you. Like

245
00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:25,440
Speaker 5: I told you, man, I'm calling you from a payphone.

246
00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:32,040
Speaker 5: From there on, I already know this is I mean, look,

247
00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:34,520
Speaker 5: I think for when you talk about how you've changed

248
00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:39,479
Speaker 5: your life, Nate, for me knowing you getting this opportunity

249
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:44,720
Speaker 5: as you know co hosts, and just knowing when you

250
00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:47,360
Speaker 5: call you you talk about being an outlaw, all those things,

251
00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:49,280
Speaker 5: I know you just to be a strong Christian man

252
00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:54,000
Speaker 5: and somebody that's always has a good word for people.

253
00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:57,480
Speaker 5: So I think, whatever backlash or whatever, you know, because

254
00:12:57,520 --> 00:13:00,920
Speaker 5: right now the world is so divided, but this literally

255
00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:04,959
Speaker 5: could not have happened four and to a better person,

256
00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:09,400
Speaker 5: especially with if this whole thing is designed to rehabilitate

257
00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:12,800
Speaker 5: a person and make him better. I mean, all that

258
00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:15,120
Speaker 5: I've ever seen from you, all that I've ever gathered

259
00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:19,040
Speaker 5: a god from you, and even in our conversations has

260
00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:22,480
Speaker 5: been nothing but great things, you know, great things and

261
00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:25,920
Speaker 5: being a man of faith and always challenging me to

262
00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:30,680
Speaker 5: increase my faith in times of you know, blunder, disaster,

263
00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:34,040
Speaker 5: even happiness. So man, I'm just I'm just so happy

264
00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:36,160
Speaker 5: man for you. When I woke up and saw it,

265
00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:40,360
Speaker 5: I thought I was dreaming. I was like, how did

266
00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:43,800
Speaker 5: that happen? But you know, miracles do still happen, man,

267
00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:46,160
Speaker 5: and people are blessed. Yeah, but I know I should

268
00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:48,640
Speaker 5: ask why I had him right where I needed, if

269
00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:50,880
Speaker 5: he was feeling good, I should ask for more money,

270
00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:55,600
Speaker 5: mister window.

271
00:13:56,440 --> 00:13:59,640
Speaker 3: But how about from this part of it too, Because

272
00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:02,360
Speaker 3: when you have that on your record, you know, and

273
00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:05,920
Speaker 3: you're looking for employment or whatever, think about what Jerry

274
00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:09,559
Speaker 3: Jones has done for you o quarter century, giving you

275
00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:15,480
Speaker 3: the opportunities that you've had here. And and then he's

276
00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:20,440
Speaker 3: you implied that he was the one that is taking

277
00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:23,760
Speaker 3: it to the president to at least be a part

278
00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:24,480
Speaker 3: of that process.

279
00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:26,600
Speaker 5: I think we better take this to a break because

280
00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:28,480
Speaker 5: Nate will answer all this and more.

281
00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:31,960

00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:35,720
Speaker 9: switching to Geico, you could save about nine hundred dollars

316
00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:38,160
Speaker 9: on car insurance without ever touching a coupon.

317
00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:41,040
Speaker 2: Oh how about this one half off floppy disks.

318
00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:42,960
Speaker 9: Now you should try a bit of spring cleaning.

319
00:16:43,160 --> 00:17:01,640

Speaker 2: Yesterday, nobody celebration.

328
00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:31,080
Speaker 3: President's Day came about three or four days early for

329
00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:35,280
Speaker 3: Nate Newton. As we were all driving in, we got

330
00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:39,320
Speaker 3: a text from Everson saying that uh, he couldn't make it,

331
00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:41,919
Speaker 3: sorry for the late notice. He could make it, and

332
00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:46,200
Speaker 3: thought entered my mind. Man, ever since not going to

333
00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:48,520
Speaker 3: be there, we're going to have an open seat. I

334
00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:51,600
Speaker 3: sure as heck, wish he hadn't told us so late,

335
00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:55,360
Speaker 3: because we could have had Nate come join us and

336
00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:56,280
Speaker 3: then low and beall.

337
00:17:56,320 --> 00:17:56,600
Speaker 2: Hold.

338
00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:59,399
Speaker 3: Two minutes into the show, here comes Nate Newton around

339
00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:03,719
Speaker 3: the corner and we can talk about so has day

340
00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:04,719
Speaker 3: coming early for him?

341
00:18:04,920 --> 00:18:06,680
Speaker 4: Let me give you an example.

342
00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:11,000
Speaker 2: Of what watching the show.

343
00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:17,280
Speaker 4: Yeah say, let me explain to you what this UH

344
00:18:17,760 --> 00:18:23,480
Speaker 4: does for you. Three years ago, four years ago, remember

345
00:18:23,560 --> 00:18:29,720
Speaker 4: when we were doing the Saturday show out in Arlington

346
00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:35,280
Speaker 4: at the bar. Uh NFL Films was going to come

347
00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:38,359
Speaker 4: in and do something. They were doing a fan thing,

348
00:18:38,840 --> 00:18:41,560
Speaker 4: and they knew we were doing the show, right, And

349
00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:45,480
Speaker 4: I'm like, yeah, sure, come in. And so a day

350
00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:49,240
Speaker 4: or two before I get a call and they go, well,

351
00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:53,959
Speaker 4: we're thinking about it. It's UH. We'd like to just

352
00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:56,120
Speaker 4: talk to you. I said, well, Nate's part of it,

353
00:18:56,640 --> 00:18:59,600
Speaker 4: and they go, well, yeah, but he had this history

354
00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:01,440
Speaker 4: and we don't know that we want to put them

355
00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:05,880
Speaker 4: on the air. And I said, well, you got two choices.

356
00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:10,160
Speaker 4: You do all of us together or you do none

357
00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:13,320
Speaker 4: of us, right wow? And they did none of us

358
00:19:14,200 --> 00:19:18,200
Speaker 4: and so but that follows you, right, Yeah, And now

359
00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:23,119
Speaker 4: with this, maybe it gives people a different perspective on

360
00:19:23,280 --> 00:19:27,280
Speaker 4: what you've done with your life since those early aughts.

361
00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:33,320
Speaker 5: Well, the thing, the thing about it is, I've always

362
00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:38,320
Speaker 5: and I'm probably saying this is probably gonna upset some people.

363
00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:41,120
Speaker 5: I always kind of live life to my own beat

364
00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:45,680
Speaker 5: up to a certain point, and I accepted whatever came

365
00:19:45,720 --> 00:19:47,440
Speaker 5: to me, good, bad, or and different.

366
00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:49,760
Speaker 2: You know, you you you rally whatever.

367
00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:53,399
Speaker 5: See me walking around here with my lip out, head

368
00:19:53,480 --> 00:20:00,240
Speaker 5: hanging because everything that has transpired, even that, but you're

369
00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:06,679
Speaker 5: talking about it's either direct from what I've done or indirect.

370
00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:07,000
Speaker 2: From what I've done.

371
00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:10,440
Speaker 5: So I'm I'm willing to accept in like NFL, they

372
00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:12,679
Speaker 5: did the right thing. If they felt that that was

373
00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:15,800
Speaker 5: not a good thing to promote, they show and to

374
00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:19,879
Speaker 5: give it the best viewing. Do your thing. You know, Uh,

375
00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:23,320
Speaker 5: I don't have I have no remorse. It's all about

376
00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:25,640
Speaker 5: doing the right things. If you live right and try

377
00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:28,880
Speaker 5: to do right, you know, then good things will come

378
00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:31,920
Speaker 5: to you and the people you're around. You can block

379
00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:34,080
Speaker 5: their blessings. That was a blessing for you, Mike. I

380
00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:39,680
Speaker 5: blocked that. But you know what now, Uh, not only

381
00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:42,760
Speaker 5: can the president pardon you from what man does, but

382
00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:44,840
Speaker 5: I already had a bigger pardon through God.

383
00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:48,199
Speaker 2: So I'm good. But I hate when I hear that

384
00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:48,760
Speaker 2: for you.

385
00:20:49,320 --> 00:20:51,920
Speaker 5: If if I'm hanging out with Heck and something great

386
00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:55,840
Speaker 5: can happen for Heck now, Oh mannake, oh man, I'm

387
00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:58,840
Speaker 5: crushing Bill. You know deal, you don't want that. As

388
00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:05,240
Speaker 5: a human, what I've learned over the years is you

389
00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:08,359
Speaker 5: have to think of more than yourself when you are

390
00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:11,240
Speaker 5: a selfish person, When you are a person that only

391
00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:14,240
Speaker 5: thinks of you and what you can gain out of

392
00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:18,920
Speaker 5: a situation, You're not gonna last. You're gonna slowly fall

393
00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:21,359
Speaker 5: off the cliff. You're not gonna last. It'll start out great,

394
00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:24,440
Speaker 5: It'll start out great. Can I be a millionaire? Yeah,

395
00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:27,200
Speaker 5: for only for a minute. But the people that treat

396
00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:29,680
Speaker 5: other people right and do things in the right way,

397
00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:32,439
Speaker 5: they seem to last. Even when they pass and go

398
00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:35,399
Speaker 5: to their resting place, people always have great things to

399
00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:37,359
Speaker 5: say about them. So that's how I live now. So

400
00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:40,080
Speaker 5: but I'm sorry about that, No, I'm sorry.

401
00:21:40,359 --> 00:21:44,199
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, but you've had to be so grateful for

402
00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:46,000
Speaker 3: the opportunities that you've had here.

403
00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:47,880
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, definitely, definitely.

404
00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:48,640
Speaker 3: Five years.

405
00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:51,920
Speaker 5: Whatever I'm gonna go, I'm gonna go a little story

406
00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:54,520
Speaker 5: when I was and I normally don't do this, but

407
00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:57,200
Speaker 5: since y'all we on this thing, and you know, a

408
00:21:57,240 --> 00:21:58,800
Speaker 5: lot of people walk up to me and I won't

409
00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:00,840
Speaker 5: have nothing to say to you. Then you know, right now,

410
00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:05,480
Speaker 5: I'm just sharing this when I was locked up, I've

411
00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:09,280
Speaker 5: always felt and because you when you locked up, you

412
00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:11,479
Speaker 5: got a lot of time to think. That's all you

413
00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:14,720
Speaker 5: do is think of the good, the bad, or the indifferences.

414
00:22:14,920 --> 00:22:17,000
Speaker 5: And the dude walked up to me one day and said,

415
00:22:17,600 --> 00:22:19,800
Speaker 5: and I didn't mean it in a wrong in a

416
00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:22,800
Speaker 5: bad way. He said, man, he said, you get out, boy,

417
00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:25,000
Speaker 5: you're gonna be in trouble. I'm like, why would you

418
00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:28,320
Speaker 5: say that? He said, man, you let down a lot

419
00:22:28,359 --> 00:22:31,360
Speaker 5: of people. You was in the limelight, you did this.

420
00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:35,000
Speaker 5: And I kind of looked at him and I said, rh,

421
00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:38,120
Speaker 5: I said, when I get out of here, I'm gonna

422
00:22:38,119 --> 00:22:41,200
Speaker 5: be about I'm gonna be okay, I'm gonna do my thing.

423
00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:42,680
Speaker 5: He says, you're gonna think of me. I said, no,

424
00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:45,480
Speaker 5: I'm not gonna think of you at all. I say,

425
00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:48,639
Speaker 5: because this place has taught me one thing is that

426
00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:50,600
Speaker 5: I don't want to be in here with you or

427
00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:53,760
Speaker 5: anybody like you. I said, it's nothing against you, but

428
00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:56,440
Speaker 5: I'm not gonna think of you. I'm thinking of ways

429
00:22:56,640 --> 00:22:59,320
Speaker 5: that I can go back and talk to people of importance,

430
00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:03,080
Speaker 5: of a thought that my mother and father first to

431
00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:04,639
Speaker 5: tell them, I'm sorry.

432
00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:07,240
Speaker 2: I let you down. I hurt you.

433
00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:11,080
Speaker 5: I got uncles that was defending me, and I had

434
00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:13,040
Speaker 5: to tell them, no, brother, what I did.

435
00:23:13,160 --> 00:23:14,400
Speaker 2: I knew what I was doing.

436
00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:16,280
Speaker 5: So that young man looked at me like, man, if

437
00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:17,720
Speaker 5: I walk up to you in the street, I said, yeah,

438
00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:19,720
Speaker 5: I would shake your hand and I would give you

439
00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:20,280
Speaker 5: some power.

440
00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:20,800
Speaker 4: Love, bro.

441
00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:25,080
Speaker 5: But me and you ain't having a conversation. The thing

442
00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:29,720
Speaker 5: is when you've dealt with people like my family, who

443
00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:37,840
Speaker 5: are great human beings, mister Jones, Troy Emmett, Dion Sanders,

444
00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:42,520
Speaker 5: Michael Irvin, Bill heck NICKI, who have treated me with

445
00:23:42,800 --> 00:23:47,840
Speaker 5: utmost respect, Chris Bean, I tell people like that, I'm sorry, man,

446
00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:54,320
Speaker 5: because you cannot walk through life hurting people that have

447
00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:59,280
Speaker 5: helped you, doing people wrong that have helped you, people

448
00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:03,320
Speaker 5: that have had your best interest all the time. I've

449
00:24:03,359 --> 00:24:06,320
Speaker 5: walked through my whole life, and I don't know if

450
00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:10,080
Speaker 5: I ever told you this. Heck trying to destroy everything

451
00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:15,920
Speaker 5: that people have put in place for me. Always was

452
00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:21,120
Speaker 5: a good football player, never following the rules, always in

453
00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:25,560
Speaker 5: good places, working for ESPN, never following the rules.

454
00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:30,280
Speaker 2: I've been on Super Bowls. I even at halftime.

455
00:24:30,320 --> 00:24:32,600
Speaker 5: I'm even done shammed up a way to go see

456
00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:36,000
Speaker 5: Michael Jordan, I mean Michael Jackson seeing at halftime, sitting

457
00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:40,480
Speaker 5: in the alerte what I'm saying.

458
00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:43,160
Speaker 2: I've always found ways.

459
00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:46,920
Speaker 5: And a young lady told me, and she was the

460
00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:51,000
Speaker 5: overseer when I was in my first stop in prison.

461
00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:54,679
Speaker 5: She looked at me. She was the lady counselor. I

462
00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:58,359
Speaker 5: don't know your name, ma'am. Love you to death for

463
00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:01,399
Speaker 5: this statement she made. She looked me right in my eyes,

464
00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:04,360
Speaker 5: did not blink. She said, mister Newton, I'm looking at

465
00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:08,480
Speaker 5: your record. You had all these accolades, you've been this,

466
00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:11,000
Speaker 5: you've been that, You've been on to the to the

467
00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:13,560
Speaker 5: to the top of the mountain. Only one thing this

468
00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:15,480
Speaker 5: shows me, mister Newton. And I look at it like

469
00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:21,160
Speaker 5: you know what, you know you can't handle prosperity. Why

470
00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:25,879
Speaker 5: is it that you can't handle prosperity? And at the time,

471
00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:27,760
Speaker 5: you know, I wanted to say something flip, but I

472
00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:29,840
Speaker 5: know she had the pen. So I'm like, I want

473
00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:33,040
Speaker 5: that dumb. I'm like, okay, yes, all right, okay, cool,

474
00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:33,960
Speaker 5: what do you have to say?

475
00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:35,960
Speaker 2: And I looked at it. I have nothing to say,

476
00:25:36,800 --> 00:25:38,000
Speaker 2: but that ain't never left me.

477
00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:43,399
Speaker 5: And over time, once you let the hatred, the resentment

478
00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:47,000
Speaker 5: and all of that melt away, and you start trying

479
00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:51,240
Speaker 5: to refix yourself and started saying how do I rebuild myself?

480
00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:54,320
Speaker 2: That's stuck in my mind.

481
00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:59,640
Speaker 5: So when things started happening good for me the second time,

482
00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:05,320
Speaker 5: I knew how to handle it with humility. You don't

483
00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:08,159
Speaker 5: hear me brag. You don't hear me saying what I

484
00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:11,000
Speaker 5: should be, what I should have. I just let God

485
00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:13,080
Speaker 5: bring it and when he bring it, I just receive

486
00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:16,840
Speaker 5: it and thinking, you know, that's how I walk through life.

487
00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:21,000
Speaker 4: Now, you know, well we just had the best mixed

488
00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:21,719
Speaker 4: shots ever there.

489
00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:27,280
Speaker 3: Well almost. Here's what you did. Okay, all right? You

490
00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:31,560
Speaker 3: were going down one road, okay, and you're and you

491
00:26:31,720 --> 00:26:32,880
Speaker 3: turned and you went the other way.

492
00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:37,080
Speaker 5: You know, that's exactly exactly what I was going to say.

493
00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:40,800
Speaker 3: That is repentance. And as you were talking about the

494
00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:43,800
Speaker 3: handling prosperity I was thinking of I just looked up.

495
00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:49,760
Speaker 3: There's the Bible verse Proverbs thirty seven nine seven through nine,

496
00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:53,399
Speaker 3: and it is it's a prayer not to give me

497
00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:58,720
Speaker 3: poverty or riches, okay, because I can't handle poverty or riches,

498
00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:02,280
Speaker 3: you know. And that's that's basically what's happened with you,

499
00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:06,320
Speaker 3: is you had the riches okay, and it happens to

500
00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:09,720
Speaker 3: so many of us. And what it brought you back

501
00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:10,919
Speaker 3: to where you belong.

502
00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:13,879
Speaker 5: That's right, you know, that's right. Like Moses said, I

503
00:27:13,920 --> 00:27:16,520
Speaker 5: mean that human what's the great?

504
00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:16,800
Speaker 2: Uh?

505
00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:17,080
Speaker 6: This?

506
00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:17,439
Speaker 4: Uh?

507
00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:20,520
Speaker 5: He wrote part of the New Testament, Paul, Like Paul said,

508
00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:22,200
Speaker 5: who was used to be sold? That's how I think.

509
00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:25,520
Speaker 5: Something like Paul said, whether I have a lot, whether

510
00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:27,720
Speaker 5: I have a little, I know how to maintain, through

511
00:27:27,720 --> 00:27:30,440
Speaker 5: the through the through the word. I know how to maintain.

512
00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:32,440
Speaker 5: And so you know, I don't want to get spiritual

513
00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:34,040
Speaker 5: on a lot of people out there because this is

514
00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:35,720
Speaker 5: a sports program.

515
00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:38,000
Speaker 2: But they asked, and they shall received a.

516
00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:41,920
Speaker 3: Living example of exactly what what that talked about is.

517
00:27:42,240 --> 00:27:45,639
Speaker 3: It's repentance, and that's what's what's happened for you, and

518
00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:48,280
Speaker 3: it took you down all the way to where you

519
00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:52,800
Speaker 3: had to spend time. Yeah okay, Yeah, and you turned

520
00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:54,639
Speaker 3: your life around, you know.

521
00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:59,280
Speaker 2: I mean, I could tell you all some stories, but how.

522
00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:04,520
Speaker 5: This is the thing that I was raised in a

523
00:28:04,640 --> 00:28:08,280
Speaker 5: Christian home, so I always knew wrong right from wrong.

524
00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:12,280
Speaker 5: But it's just amazing how I would do things and

525
00:28:12,320 --> 00:28:15,480
Speaker 5: my wife Michelle would be like, baby, baby, you don't

526
00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:17,160
Speaker 5: have to do this, you don't have to do this,

527
00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:18,399
Speaker 5: and da da da da.

528
00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:22,119
Speaker 2: And I even had she.

529
00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:27,120
Speaker 5: Say, I said, I'm gonna get caught, sweetheart, I'm gonna

530
00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:27,840
Speaker 5: get caught.

531
00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:28,399
Speaker 2: Now.

532
00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:31,880
Speaker 5: You got to be an idiot or something just wrong

533
00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:34,920
Speaker 5: with you to know what you're doing is wrong. That's

534
00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:36,399
Speaker 5: why I tell people and they say, oh, you just

535
00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:39,080
Speaker 5: made a mistake. No, no, no mistakes or something like

536
00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:41,520
Speaker 5: when you close the door on your hand or run

537
00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:45,320
Speaker 5: over somebody by mistakes, walk out in the street. You

538
00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:49,680
Speaker 5: don't plot the crime and do the crime and not

539
00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:51,600
Speaker 5: know that something bad gonna happen.

540
00:28:52,360 --> 00:28:53,600
Speaker 2: So that's why I tell.

541
00:28:53,360 --> 00:28:58,520
Speaker 5: People that it's certain things when you're telling me and

542
00:28:58,560 --> 00:29:02,680
Speaker 5: you saying I made him mistake and you knew what

543
00:29:02,720 --> 00:29:05,760
Speaker 5: was gonna happen. It is all premeditated and you knew eventually,

544
00:29:06,560 --> 00:29:08,640
Speaker 5: but you thought you won't get caught. The only difference

545
00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:10,600
Speaker 5: between me and the person that thought they won't get caught.

546
00:29:10,720 --> 00:29:14,080
Speaker 5: I knew one day they gonna catch me. And she said, well,

547
00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:14,760
Speaker 5: what you're gonna do?

548
00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:18,440
Speaker 2: I said, well, I hope I don't get more than

549
00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:21,440
Speaker 2: five years. She just looked at me, She.

550
00:29:21,600 --> 00:29:24,160
Speaker 5: Like, maybe's something wrong with you and say, gut what

551
00:29:24,440 --> 00:29:29,320
Speaker 5: you're married to me. So what I'm trying to tell

552
00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:34,960
Speaker 5: people is you always have to think that when you're

553
00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:39,120
Speaker 5: doing wrong, if not here on this physical earth, you

554
00:29:39,320 --> 00:29:42,680
Speaker 5: gonna pay for this. And people like man, I got

555
00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:44,280
Speaker 5: away with a lot, And I said, you didn't get

556
00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:46,960
Speaker 5: away with a lot either. You didn't get away with

557
00:29:47,040 --> 00:29:48,440
Speaker 5: a lot.

558
00:29:50,040 --> 00:29:51,000
Speaker 2: I believe this right here.

559
00:29:51,240 --> 00:29:53,360
Speaker 5: You gonna only do what you can handle, what you

560
00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:56,320
Speaker 5: can what you built the handles. You know a lot

561
00:29:56,360 --> 00:29:59,800
Speaker 5: of people I said, man, I can't. I can't do that,

562
00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:01,960
Speaker 5: can't do that. But then I think about it. But

563
00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:04,200
Speaker 5: I did this and I did that, And that's what

564
00:30:04,320 --> 00:30:08,280
Speaker 5: I challenged people. You got your fears. I may not

565
00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:12,360
Speaker 5: know what your fears are. Jail wasn't a fear. The

566
00:30:12,440 --> 00:30:14,640
Speaker 5: police wasn't a fear to me.

567
00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:15,640
Speaker 2: Now they want.

568
00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:18,760
Speaker 5: An opponent like the Washington team or the New York

569
00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:21,520
Speaker 5: But I want to. I want't scared of that when

570
00:30:21,560 --> 00:30:25,520
Speaker 5: a police officer pulled me over, Okay, all right, what's up?

571
00:30:26,120 --> 00:30:32,080
Speaker 5: You know, I was never fearful of getting caught, But

572
00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:34,400
Speaker 5: then when I got caught, I realized I was caught.

573
00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:39,000
Speaker 5: And when that lady broke that down to me, I

574
00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:42,760
Speaker 5: went to thinking I could have been millions and millions

575
00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:46,240
Speaker 5: and millions of dollars because I got mister Jones upstairs

576
00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:49,120
Speaker 5: with this with who sought me down several times showing

577
00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:51,480
Speaker 5: me how to invest money. But I want to go

578
00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:55,920
Speaker 5: out here and be scarfaced.

579
00:30:54,920 --> 00:30:58,840
Speaker 2: I told him about tell that it is best, you know,

580
00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:01,520
Speaker 2: and do it all the wrong way.

581
00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:06,160
Speaker 5: Just think I'm more satisfied with the bank account and

582
00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:08,320
Speaker 5: the little investments I have now than I've ever been

583
00:31:08,360 --> 00:31:11,880
Speaker 5: in life. So I never needed the millions mister Jones

584
00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:15,360
Speaker 5: ad even though, thank you, brother, But I don't. I

585
00:31:15,400 --> 00:31:17,640
Speaker 5: don't want to be poor either, and poor as a

586
00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:19,400
Speaker 5: state of mind, you know.

587
00:31:19,560 --> 00:31:22,160
Speaker 2: So I'm sitting here with you guys.

588
00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:25,160
Speaker 5: I mean, I mean what I get paid and what

589
00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:28,160
Speaker 5: we get paid as individual subcuntry, it ain't a great

590
00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:30,600
Speaker 5: a lot of amount we have to beat. We have

591
00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:33,160
Speaker 5: to do quantity to make it quality. But you know

592
00:31:33,240 --> 00:31:38,640
Speaker 5: what I'm sitting here, Everson, thank you gotta be good.

593
00:31:39,280 --> 00:31:41,080
Speaker 5: You know what I what I hope, what I hope

594
00:31:41,120 --> 00:31:44,719
Speaker 5: what happens in the future is that you take this

595
00:31:44,840 --> 00:31:49,200
Speaker 5: message to young people. I really donate and and I

596
00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:51,640
Speaker 5: know you're you're a very reserved person like you when

597
00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:54,160
Speaker 5: you tell hey, man, you know, if somebody come up

598
00:31:54,200 --> 00:31:56,680
Speaker 5: the stranger come up to you trying to talk to you, Hey,

599
00:31:56,880 --> 00:31:58,320
Speaker 5: you probably get two words.

600
00:31:58,040 --> 00:32:00,760
Speaker 2: From Nate noton but that you doing.

601
00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:05,120
Speaker 5: You know, this is I think the message, especially me

602
00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:08,840
Speaker 5: being a young man being from o'cliff, you know what

603
00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:11,400
Speaker 5: I'm saying, being you know, growing up in these areas

604
00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:14,560
Speaker 5: and understanding, you know, the prison industrial complex that it

605
00:32:14,640 --> 00:32:17,520
Speaker 5: happens in our neighborhoods and guy's not getting apart, and

606
00:32:17,600 --> 00:32:20,440
Speaker 5: guys having those stripes, not being able to you know,

607
00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:22,760
Speaker 5: smart as all get out, but not being able to

608
00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:25,480
Speaker 5: get jobs, being able to have things happen for you.

609
00:32:25,560 --> 00:32:29,400
Speaker 5: That message needs to be conveyed because like you said, man,

610
00:32:29,440 --> 00:32:31,640
Speaker 5: everybody has their fears. And if you don't have a

611
00:32:31,720 --> 00:32:35,959
Speaker 5: healthy fear of authority, and you're already already telling yourself

612
00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:38,000
Speaker 5: the time that you're gonna get for the crime that

613
00:32:38,080 --> 00:32:40,800
Speaker 5: you committing. Now you you a special kind of individual,

614
00:32:41,600 --> 00:32:44,560
Speaker 5: number one, you know, But number two, what if you

615
00:32:44,600 --> 00:32:48,200
Speaker 5: took that wherewithal and applied that to engineering, if you

616
00:32:48,320 --> 00:32:51,120
Speaker 5: applied that to accounting, if you applied that to being

617
00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:54,200
Speaker 5: a lawyer, a doctor, or something like that, you realize

618
00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:57,120
Speaker 5: with what you did wrong that there was absolutely another

619
00:32:57,200 --> 00:32:57,920
Speaker 5: way for they do.

620
00:32:58,040 --> 00:33:00,480
Speaker 2: Now, hey, what you do understand, Like of your.

621
00:33:00,360 --> 00:33:02,560
Speaker 5: Hand is football, and you can talk football and you

622
00:33:02,640 --> 00:33:05,840
Speaker 5: sleep to a baby to anybody. But think about those

623
00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:09,680
Speaker 5: that message being conveyed to someone younger that may not

624
00:33:09,840 --> 00:33:13,000
Speaker 5: understand or may not have a mister Jones or someone

625
00:33:13,120 --> 00:33:15,680
Speaker 5: that has that structure applied to your life that can

626
00:33:15,720 --> 00:33:16,520
Speaker 5: help you.

627
00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:16,720
Speaker 2: You know.

628
00:33:16,880 --> 00:33:19,120
Speaker 5: I think that's I think that's telling. I think that

629
00:33:19,120 --> 00:33:22,240
Speaker 5: that testimony is strong man, and it shouldn't just stay here.

630
00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:24,920
Speaker 5: But the thing is, like, like I tell people, I

631
00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:31,600
Speaker 5: would rather talk to parents, not kids. The the structure

632
00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:36,800
Speaker 5: of who we are today. These are our parents, and

633
00:33:36,840 --> 00:33:40,920
Speaker 5: we had we were sitting here having a constructive conversation. True,

634
00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:43,720
Speaker 5: some idiot get up on here and chop it up.

635
00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:47,040
Speaker 3: And for those just listening, Nate picked up his phone.

636
00:33:47,080 --> 00:33:48,000
Speaker 3: These are our parents.

637
00:33:48,360 --> 00:33:51,760
Speaker 5: Yeah, and their chop they'll chop up everything we just said.

638
00:33:52,760 --> 00:33:55,400
Speaker 5: And a kid to get this and say, uh. The

639
00:33:55,480 --> 00:33:58,480
Speaker 5: reason I stopped talking to kids is because I heard

640
00:33:58,480 --> 00:33:58,960
Speaker 5: a parent.

641
00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:00,200
Speaker 2: It crushed me.

642
00:34:01,320 --> 00:34:08,000
Speaker 5: I heard a parent tell her kid, see, see, baby,

643
00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:11,200
Speaker 5: it's gonna be all right. Mister Newton made it.

644
00:34:12,840 --> 00:34:15,560
Speaker 2: Hm. No no, no, no, no no.

645
00:34:15,680 --> 00:34:18,839
Speaker 5: What you should be telling your child is we got

646
00:34:18,840 --> 00:34:21,520
Speaker 5: a plan we're gonna put in place. And these are

647
00:34:21,520 --> 00:34:23,840
Speaker 5: the things that don't expect from you. These are the

648
00:34:23,880 --> 00:34:27,279
Speaker 5: things you can expect from me. But don't tell your

649
00:34:27,400 --> 00:34:31,560
Speaker 5: kid it's gonna be all right, because it's not gonna

650
00:34:31,560 --> 00:34:35,080
Speaker 5: be all right if you don't do anything to get

651
00:34:35,120 --> 00:34:38,840
Speaker 5: this stuff in order. You know, Like I just believe

652
00:34:39,320 --> 00:34:42,719
Speaker 5: as my mom and dad, and this is probably was

653
00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:45,960
Speaker 5: not said enough to a lot of people. I had

654
00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:50,879
Speaker 5: a mom and a dad who were righteous people who

655
00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:54,880
Speaker 5: lived life right. I had a grandmama, I had an aunt,

656
00:34:55,160 --> 00:34:59,160
Speaker 5: I had an uncle. I had cousins who lived right.

657
00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:04,640
Speaker 5: Village theory. That is what brought me back all the

658
00:35:04,680 --> 00:35:07,640
Speaker 5: way round to what was right. That is the first

659
00:35:07,920 --> 00:35:10,360
Speaker 5: besides God. Those are the people that I had to

660
00:35:10,400 --> 00:35:14,200
Speaker 5: say I'm sorry because they were still defending me.

661
00:35:14,719 --> 00:35:18,600
Speaker 2: Now that ain't my son. Yes, daddy, this is your son.

662
00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:22,759
Speaker 5: Yes, Mama, this is your son who got off on

663
00:35:22,880 --> 00:35:26,560
Speaker 5: the on the wrong track, done the wrong things. We

664
00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:31,880
Speaker 5: as human beings, not Nate butt heck my butt, Mickey

665
00:35:31,880 --> 00:35:35,280
Speaker 5: butt bill. Your jobs is to put your kids around

666
00:35:35,280 --> 00:35:40,040
Speaker 5: the right people's sight. That's your job. It's called opportunities.

667
00:35:40,640 --> 00:35:43,480
Speaker 5: When success meets opportunity.

668
00:35:43,560 --> 00:35:44,080
Speaker 2: Our luck.

669
00:35:44,280 --> 00:35:46,279
Speaker 5: Albu mic Erman used to put this thing. It's the

670
00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:47,399
Speaker 5: thing he used to use.

671
00:35:48,160 --> 00:35:49,719
Speaker 2: You know you.

672
00:35:49,920 --> 00:35:54,280
Speaker 5: It's our job as parents to put our kids around

673
00:35:54,320 --> 00:35:58,680
Speaker 5: the right people, not by race, not by color, not

674
00:35:58,760 --> 00:36:03,640
Speaker 5: by creed, by about what it's good. And that's that's

675
00:36:03,640 --> 00:36:06,800
Speaker 5: how I look at it. Now, that's a biblical scripture.

676
00:36:06,640 --> 00:36:08,600
Speaker 3: Raise up a chiut and the way that you should go.

677
00:36:08,719 --> 00:36:09,319
Speaker 2: And that's right.

678
00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:12,640
Speaker 3: Oh he will return, Yeah.

679
00:36:11,840 --> 00:36:15,759
Speaker 5: And I returned to what my father helped the black neighborhood.

680
00:36:15,760 --> 00:36:19,320
Speaker 5: He was a called a black banker. He ran several stores.

681
00:36:19,600 --> 00:36:21,880
Speaker 5: People will come in and make loans. You ain't had

682
00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:24,440
Speaker 5: one time not to pay him back. Your loan was revoked. No,

683
00:36:24,560 --> 00:36:26,200
Speaker 5: you ain't got to give him the money. But he

684
00:36:26,280 --> 00:36:30,399
Speaker 5: was the black banker. You know, my grandmama. Everybody came

685
00:36:30,400 --> 00:36:33,239
Speaker 5: to my grandmama for all the old stories. My mother,

686
00:36:33,400 --> 00:36:36,040
Speaker 5: she's a school teacher. Have a help her because I

687
00:36:36,320 --> 00:36:39,200
Speaker 5: never I could never punctuate nothing correctly.

688
00:36:39,239 --> 00:36:40,480
Speaker 2: But I was.

689
00:36:40,520 --> 00:36:46,880
Speaker 5: Black sheep, literally black, you know so. But my grandmama,

690
00:36:48,239 --> 00:36:51,960
Speaker 5: beautiful lady man. I remember, she's a scrub I clothes

691
00:36:52,080 --> 00:36:55,839
Speaker 5: man in when we little town called Lottie man.

692
00:36:56,680 --> 00:36:58,839
Speaker 2: Uh, we all have to get him and go to church.

693
00:36:58,880 --> 00:37:02,680
Speaker 5: It's sixteen boys in a three bedroom house because all

694
00:37:02,719 --> 00:37:05,360
Speaker 5: the daughters had boys. So we would go in the

695
00:37:05,400 --> 00:37:07,320
Speaker 5: summer and spend with our grandma. And I used to

696
00:37:07,360 --> 00:37:08,680
Speaker 5: be one of the mean ones. And I used to

697
00:37:08,719 --> 00:37:09,200
Speaker 5: hear tell you.

698
00:37:09,520 --> 00:37:11,279
Speaker 2: I had to pinch him. I had to pinch him.

699
00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:13,879
Speaker 2: Get him right. He sit up here eyeing me now.

700
00:37:14,040 --> 00:37:15,400
Speaker 2: But we're gonna get out here and scrubbed it.

701
00:37:15,640 --> 00:37:18,080
Speaker 5: We'll get out there and scrubbed the clothes man, like

702
00:37:18,239 --> 00:37:22,040
Speaker 5: five or six ten buckets, scrubbing clothes. Just I knew

703
00:37:22,040 --> 00:37:25,319
Speaker 5: what good and family and life was right. But I

704
00:37:25,440 --> 00:37:28,560
Speaker 5: chose another path. We get to do that as adults,

705
00:37:28,960 --> 00:37:32,879
Speaker 5: but as an adult, I accepted my faith. That's what

706
00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:36,560
Speaker 5: we don't let our kids do now. We don't let

707
00:37:36,560 --> 00:37:39,960
Speaker 5: our kids grow up. And I told hell one time,

708
00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:41,799
Speaker 5: you gotta let him go, Bro, you gotta let him

709
00:37:41,800 --> 00:37:43,879
Speaker 5: go out there and do his thing. If he bump

710
00:37:43,960 --> 00:37:47,360
Speaker 5: his head, okay, and if he hasn't done anything true,

711
00:37:47,480 --> 00:37:51,719
Speaker 5: too too bad, then you heapen, you heapen, you show

712
00:37:51,800 --> 00:37:59,360
Speaker 5: him the right way. Very good, Nate, see all that, clown,

713
00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:01,200
Speaker 5: And I do y'all think I knew that I did.

714
00:38:01,040 --> 00:38:07,920
Speaker 4: It well not to have to bring it back to sports.

715
00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:13,239
Speaker 4: But if you've been watching the Olympics and when they

716
00:38:13,280 --> 00:38:17,080
Speaker 4: interview guys after they have success, who are the first

717
00:38:17,080 --> 00:38:19,400
Speaker 4: person they think their parents?

718
00:38:19,480 --> 00:38:21,239
Speaker 2: Yes, right, because.

719
00:38:20,960 --> 00:38:27,200
Speaker 4: They gave him direction, the ability to have an opportunity

720
00:38:27,400 --> 00:38:31,960
Speaker 4: to succeed or just to participate. Yes, that's one of

721
00:38:32,040 --> 00:38:34,839
Speaker 4: the things I think we've listened to over the last

722
00:38:34,920 --> 00:38:36,600
Speaker 4: couple of weeks about the Olympics.

723
00:38:36,920 --> 00:38:42,040

789
00:42:21,160 --> 00:42:25,960
Speaker 4: we were at. This black limo pulled in underneath the

790
00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:28,799
Speaker 4: stadium and I saw this guy get out, and I go,

791
00:42:29,600 --> 00:42:33,719
Speaker 4: that's Shaboozy Wow. And I told somebody I saw Shaboozie.

792
00:42:33,920 --> 00:42:35,960
Speaker 4: The kids upstairs, they go, how do you know who

793
00:42:36,000 --> 00:42:37,480
Speaker 4: that is? I go, I'm cool.

794
00:42:37,640 --> 00:42:42,319
Speaker 5: Maybe I would have thought he was a rapper, I'm not.

795
00:42:42,960 --> 00:42:44,960
Speaker 2: I'm lost when it comes to stuff like that.

796
00:42:45,160 --> 00:42:49,160
Speaker 3: You know you're not the only one. All right, final

797
00:42:49,239 --> 00:42:53,320
Speaker 3: few minutes here of this week's mixed shots. We talked

798
00:42:53,320 --> 00:42:56,320
Speaker 3: at the very outset of the show about George Pickens

799
00:42:56,320 --> 00:42:58,720
Speaker 3: and the and the Cowboys have two weeks to decide

800
00:42:58,920 --> 00:43:01,240
Speaker 3: placing the franchise on him.

801
00:43:01,280 --> 00:43:04,760
Speaker 4: And they will, okay, if the long term deal doesn't

802
00:43:04,760 --> 00:43:09,319
Speaker 4: get done, they will twenty eight million guaranteed one year,

803
00:43:10,280 --> 00:43:14,040
Speaker 4: which is different from where Parsons was last year because

804
00:43:14,080 --> 00:43:17,040
Speaker 4: he was on his fifty year option, so he was

805
00:43:17,120 --> 00:43:22,240
Speaker 4: already under contract. This got to get settled. But twenty

806
00:43:22,280 --> 00:43:24,000
Speaker 4: eight million, one year guaranteed.

807
00:43:24,080 --> 00:43:26,440
Speaker 3: All right, let's talk about in these final five minutes

808
00:43:26,480 --> 00:43:29,640
Speaker 3: about building a team. And the key to building.

809
00:43:29,239 --> 00:43:31,520
Speaker 2: A team is flair participation.

810
00:43:31,560 --> 00:43:34,040
Speaker 3: Lair participation, and you mentioned it in the break and

811
00:43:34,040 --> 00:43:37,080
Speaker 3: so I'm going to bring this up last night. Fernando Mendoza,

812
00:43:37,280 --> 00:43:41,279
Speaker 3: Heisman Trophy winner, National champion quarterback Indiana. He's going to

813
00:43:41,280 --> 00:43:43,280
Speaker 3: be the number one pick in the draft by the

814
00:43:43,360 --> 00:43:46,600
Speaker 3: Las Vegas Raiders. He's in he was in Fort Worth.

815
00:43:46,680 --> 00:43:49,800
Speaker 3: I didn't talk with him. He got the Davy O'Brien award.

816
00:43:49,840 --> 00:43:52,959
Speaker 3: He was at the awards ceremony and I was also

817
00:43:53,000 --> 00:43:56,040
Speaker 3: talking with Rick Neuheisel who's now the head coach of

818
00:43:56,040 --> 00:43:59,440
Speaker 3: the Dallas Renegades on Sunday and we're talking about the

819
00:43:59,680 --> 00:44:03,839
Speaker 3: sixth sess that Indiana football had this year. Okay, in

820
00:44:03,840 --> 00:44:07,920
Speaker 3: this whole world of nil and transfer portal and all that,

821
00:44:08,719 --> 00:44:11,960
Speaker 3: what they had on that Indiana team. What new Heiseld

822
00:44:12,920 --> 00:44:15,840
Speaker 3: was talking about in Mendoza talking to him about it

823
00:44:15,840 --> 00:44:18,200
Speaker 3: at the end of day is they had an entire

824
00:44:18,320 --> 00:44:22,840
Speaker 3: team that was bought in and it all started. Mendoza

825
00:44:22,920 --> 00:44:25,239
Speaker 3: got a year ago. At this time, he had just

826
00:44:25,280 --> 00:44:28,879
Speaker 3: transferred from cal to Indiana, and nobody had ever heard

827
00:44:28,920 --> 00:44:32,640
Speaker 3: of Fernando Mendoza. But he has that leadership quality about

828
00:44:32,719 --> 00:44:37,520
Speaker 3: him the dakas other great quarterbacks have that gets his

829
00:44:37,600 --> 00:44:41,600
Speaker 3: team together. And they worked starting in the springtime last

830
00:44:41,680 --> 00:44:45,440
Speaker 3: year at Indiana and it culminated in an unbelievable sixteen

831
00:44:45,480 --> 00:44:50,600
Speaker 3: and o season. The worst football program in college football

832
00:44:50,719 --> 00:44:54,960
Speaker 3: history wins the national championship and goes to the distance.

833
00:44:55,160 --> 00:44:57,520
Speaker 3: And they did it with a bunch of guys that

834
00:44:57,600 --> 00:45:00,760
Speaker 3: they weren't the high profile transfer from.

835
00:45:00,640 --> 00:45:02,120
Speaker 2: No star, five star.

836
00:45:02,520 --> 00:45:05,240
Speaker 3: They took it all, but they were a team. Yes,

837
00:45:05,560 --> 00:45:07,640
Speaker 3: and it starts right out here.

838
00:45:08,400 --> 00:45:12,000
Speaker 5: I just believe that, and I keep going ahead because

839
00:45:12,000 --> 00:45:14,560
Speaker 5: we talk a lot, and every time he talk, I

840
00:45:14,560 --> 00:45:18,520
Speaker 5: always come to two things. What is gonna happen with

841
00:45:18,560 --> 00:45:25,000
Speaker 5: OTA's and player participation? And it started for me with

842
00:45:25,600 --> 00:45:29,840
Speaker 5: Miami yesterday purging their team. Is it anybody, any veteran

843
00:45:30,360 --> 00:45:33,680
Speaker 5: that we can sign? I mean a guy that can play.

844
00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:35,480
Speaker 3: And it's gonna be bought in.

845
00:45:35,560 --> 00:45:41,360
Speaker 5: Yeah, free agent, getting guys here, buying in understanding what's

846
00:45:41,680 --> 00:45:43,160
Speaker 5: got to happen to win.

847
00:45:43,920 --> 00:45:44,800
Speaker 2: I don't.

848
00:45:45,239 --> 00:45:49,480
Speaker 5: What's the most disappointed days for me is when I hear, well,

849
00:45:49,560 --> 00:45:52,040
Speaker 5: this guy missed because of this, and this guy missed

850
00:45:52,040 --> 00:45:55,680
Speaker 5: because of that, and there's no reason. Because football is

851
00:45:55,719 --> 00:45:56,560
Speaker 5: what pays the bill.

852
00:45:56,640 --> 00:45:59,359
Speaker 2: Let's keep it real. Football is what pays the bill.

853
00:46:00,400 --> 00:46:03,680
Speaker 2: Come be a part of something and make it special.

854
00:46:04,320 --> 00:46:09,760
Speaker 5: If we go another year talking about guys being off

855
00:46:09,800 --> 00:46:12,960
Speaker 5: and missing practice and not doing what they're supposed to do,

856
00:46:13,440 --> 00:46:16,920
Speaker 5: you don't have a fifteen to twenty days of padded practices.

857
00:46:18,280 --> 00:46:24,000
Speaker 5: Make sure every player is in practice, in practicing. That

858
00:46:24,120 --> 00:46:27,800
Speaker 5: is what killed us last year, y'all, not coach evil Flus,

859
00:46:28,080 --> 00:46:32,200
Speaker 5: but the lack of player participation. We got to find

860
00:46:32,200 --> 00:46:35,920
Speaker 5: more guys that love to play football. But free agency

861
00:46:36,200 --> 00:46:36,880
Speaker 5: and the draft.

862
00:46:36,920 --> 00:46:39,160
Speaker 3: I remember in the off season on a slow day

863
00:46:39,400 --> 00:46:41,640
Speaker 3: back in the nineties, we would just go out to

864
00:46:41,719 --> 00:46:44,920
Speaker 3: Valley Ranch, and back then as reporters, we could just

865
00:46:44,960 --> 00:46:48,359
Speaker 3: walk into the locker room in March, see who's hanging out,

866
00:46:49,280 --> 00:46:52,719
Speaker 3: and in March Troy Yateman and Michael Irford are out

867
00:46:52,760 --> 00:46:55,520
Speaker 3: of the practice field throwing to each other. I mean,

868
00:46:56,719 --> 00:47:00,520
Speaker 3: that's the buy in starts that early in the offseason.

869
00:47:00,680 --> 00:47:02,880
Speaker 5: Buy in is the best word to use. And for

870
00:47:03,040 --> 00:47:06,160
Speaker 5: me here early especially if you can add the tag

871
00:47:06,360 --> 00:47:09,600
Speaker 5: right away. How early do the Cowboys start to be aggressive?

872
00:47:09,600 --> 00:47:12,759
Speaker 5: We've heard to talk about getting guys signed. We have

873
00:47:12,800 --> 00:47:15,520
Speaker 5: a twenty two players that are going to hit free agency.

874
00:47:15,760 --> 00:47:17,839
Speaker 5: How many of those guys are going to fit what

875
00:47:18,680 --> 00:47:21,640
Speaker 5: shot he's doing? Are any of those guys gonna be

876
00:47:21,800 --> 00:47:25,560
Speaker 5: brought back? I'm my question about you know, the draft,

877
00:47:25,600 --> 00:47:28,680
Speaker 5: you know, compensatory versus free agency. Are you going to

878
00:47:28,920 --> 00:47:33,759
Speaker 5: head into this season with more of a rebuild mentality

879
00:47:33,800 --> 00:47:36,439
Speaker 5: to this to this team or are you, hey, let's

880
00:47:36,480 --> 00:47:38,520
Speaker 5: get it done right now. When you talk about a

881
00:47:38,560 --> 00:47:41,640
Speaker 5: team like Indiana, it was all about bringing in the

882
00:47:41,640 --> 00:47:43,200
Speaker 5: guys that fit what we do.

883
00:47:43,239 --> 00:47:45,800
Speaker 2: They didn't reach for players.

884
00:47:45,440 --> 00:47:47,120
Speaker 3: Take it to the NFL. How about the New England

885
00:47:47,160 --> 00:47:50,680
Speaker 3: Patriots four and thirteen last year and they go to

886
00:47:50,719 --> 00:47:51,320
Speaker 3: the Super.

887
00:47:51,080 --> 00:47:53,680
Speaker 5: Bowl and you know, Seattle, the same thing with a

888
00:47:54,160 --> 00:47:57,279
Speaker 5: two year coach that didn't reach on those picks. He

889
00:47:57,360 --> 00:47:59,759
Speaker 5: got the guys that he knew could help me go

890
00:47:59,840 --> 00:48:03,040
Speaker 5: of the guys that he knew what. To everybody else's surprise,

891
00:48:03,920 --> 00:48:07,920
Speaker 5: they're hoisting the Lombardy and Lombardi and the champions. So

892
00:48:07,920 --> 00:48:10,680
Speaker 5: we're all saying the same thing. This ain't coming down

893
00:48:10,760 --> 00:48:12,880
Speaker 5: to them. The only thing we need the coaches to

894
00:48:12,880 --> 00:48:15,840
Speaker 5: do is put the scheme together and get the right players.

895
00:48:16,000 --> 00:48:20,600
Speaker 5: But most of all, get players who wants to play football.

896
00:48:21,200 --> 00:48:24,800
Speaker 2: That's been our problem. I mean, come on, man, I

897
00:48:24,880 --> 00:48:27,680
Speaker 2: mean only in America can we have a mixed shots

898
00:48:29,120 --> 00:48:34,600
Speaker 2: only the Cowboys. Come on, man, for players to.

899
00:48:35,520 --> 00:48:42,080
Speaker 4: Us and we'll finish with And that is one reason

900
00:48:42,400 --> 00:48:47,200
Speaker 4: why everybody wants to talk about negotiations, the negotiations, this

901
00:48:47,360 --> 00:48:51,839
Speaker 4: or that. It came down to do I believe this

902
00:48:51,920 --> 00:48:53,120
Speaker 4: guy wants to.

903
00:48:53,080 --> 00:48:55,239
Speaker 2: Play, Thank God for me, that's right.

904
00:48:55,360 --> 00:48:57,040
Speaker 4: And two of those guys are gone.

905
00:48:57,239 --> 00:49:00,759
Speaker 5: Yeah, and so you can't make that mistake again. You

906
00:49:00,760 --> 00:49:03,279
Speaker 5: couldn't make that mistake again. Well, I'm gonna tell you

907
00:49:03,280 --> 00:49:05,960
Speaker 5: something mister Jones told me. But I tell y'all off, hairboy,

908
00:49:05,960 --> 00:49:08,280
Speaker 5: because this just blew my mind. But anyway, by.

909
00:49:10,320 --> 00:49:12,239
Speaker 2: Say, I should have waiting, man, but I want to

910
00:49:12,280 --> 00:49:12,719
Speaker 2: tell y'all.

911
00:49:12,880 --> 00:49:14,480
Speaker 4: Gotta wait till the next one day.

00:49:14,400 --> 00:49:16,240
Speaker 2: No, man, I want to I'm gonna tell y'all something.
