22
00:01:05,600 --> 00:01:08,760
Speaker 1: what's up with that dude? Well, yesterday I had a

23
00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:11,240
Speaker 1: gang of meetings in person and meetings on the phone.

24
00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:14,000
Speaker 1: Good lord, I was just talking to everybody I met

25
00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:16,759
Speaker 1: with a friend who's a COO of a hedge fund.

26
00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:18,520
Speaker 1: If you guys don't know what a hedge fund is,

27
00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:20,679
Speaker 1: don't ask me, because I don't know either. Nah. I

28
00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:22,399
Speaker 1: just know that they got a lot of money, three

29
00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:27,200
Speaker 1: billion dollars in assets invested, et cetera. So whether it's

30
00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:30,080
Speaker 1: there for that directly, we were more talking about building

31
00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:32,920
Speaker 1: out my foundation support and resources for.

32
00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:35,039
Speaker 2: That and endowment fund.

33
00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:38,680
Speaker 1: Yes, you boys gonna have an endowment fund impact investing

34
00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:42,280
Speaker 1: to make sure that those who are underserved get the

35
00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:46,680
Speaker 1: proper support and resources. Right man, It's crazy. I call

36
00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:50,760
Speaker 1: myself bilingual, and it's not because I know Spanish. I

37
00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:52,640
Speaker 1: don't know that much, almost a DZ. I don't know

38
00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:56,320
Speaker 1: that much. It's because I actually speak the language of

39
00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:59,440
Speaker 1: the haves and the have nots, because that's been my existence.

40
00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:02,240
Speaker 1: So I want to make sure I closed that divide

41
00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:05,080
Speaker 1: that seems to be widening by the day.

42
00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:07,440
Speaker 2: Other than that, took a business partner.

43
00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:13,840
Speaker 1: We went to Tiger Woods's foundation event at my friend's home,

44
00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:17,760
Speaker 1: which was on Lacc where the US Open is so

45
00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:20,320
Speaker 1: literally he lives on the golf course. And we've all

46
00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:23,200
Speaker 1: been the homes on the golf course and typically they're

47
00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:26,480
Speaker 1: very nice, and we all say the same thing. Man,

48
00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:30,160
Speaker 1: how many windows got busted over here from four you

49
00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:33,160
Speaker 1: know arrant shots right? His house ain't like that. Let

50
00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:35,040
Speaker 1: me just tell you how big his house is and

51
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:38,760
Speaker 1: how fresh his house is. It's insane, so insane that

52
00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:42,160
Speaker 1: Tiger Woods had his foundation event there and he's on

53
00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:45,079
Speaker 1: the board of the foundation as well. So insane event.

54
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:49,079
Speaker 1: Amazing people. There a lot of good connections, right man.

55
00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:52,400
Speaker 1: Look forward to Project Transition one day, being like the

56
00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:56,560
Speaker 1: Tiger Woods Foundation. That sucker there is rolling used to

57
00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:58,480
Speaker 1: seeing the gifts they gave me. Leaving there too, I'm

58
00:02:58,480 --> 00:02:59,959
Speaker 1: gonna look you all up. That's gonna be a fraud.

59
00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:03,120
Speaker 1: Swag away. I don't need that Dagerwood stuff. I know

60
00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:05,880
Speaker 1: Tiger let me stop lying, but y'all need to get

61
00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:08,320
Speaker 1: the hook up from what he gave me. It's insane.

62
00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:11,240
Speaker 1: Other than that, man just had a great time. Idye,

63
00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:13,880
Speaker 1: biddy's knocked out, woke up this morning. They're running around

64
00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:16,040
Speaker 1: the house. So if you see somebody come in here

65
00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:20,480
Speaker 1: that is four years old, four feet tall, long braids.

66
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:23,640
Speaker 1: That's my idy biddy, because they are tearing this house

67
00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:25,760
Speaker 1: up all right, now, let's get into this show with

68
00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:30,360
Speaker 1: Connor McGregor. Unfortunate news here, accused of sexually assaulting a

69
00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:33,720
Speaker 1: woman at an NBA Finals game with the hell let's

70
00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:37,080
Speaker 1: talk through a UFC star. Connor McGregor accused of sexually

71
00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:41,880
Speaker 1: assaulting a woman at a game game four to be exact.

72
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:46,920
Speaker 1: So this, according to the woman, said MacGregor violently forced

73
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:52,480
Speaker 1: himself on her inside a VIP men's bathroom at the game.

74
00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:55,360
Speaker 1: According to a letter that was sent to McGregor and

75
00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:59,280
Speaker 1: his team, she said that McGregor aggressively kissed her before

76
00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:04,960
Speaker 1: also at ten tip to force her into multiple sexual acts. Okay, so,

77
00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:08,360
Speaker 1: a spokesman for the Miami Police Department said it's Special

78
00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:13,160
Speaker 1: Victims Unit is investigating a report and no additional information

79
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:16,520
Speaker 1: would be released at this time. Okay, So, the woman

80
00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:20,840
Speaker 1: has accused of Miami he and NBA security of aiding

81
00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:24,880
Speaker 1: McGregor in the attack by separating her from her friend

82
00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:29,279
Speaker 1: and forcing her into the bathroom. Ooh, stop down right here.

83
00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:33,120
Speaker 1: Let's just kind of imagine if that's the case. So,

84
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:36,240
Speaker 1: Connor McGregor, let's say one thing about influenced celebrity, right,

85
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:40,479
Speaker 1: Like people act different, not just fans, like even people

86
00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:44,240
Speaker 1: who are working. I've been to meet my level of celebrity,

87
00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:47,440
Speaker 1: have been places before where they're like, no, you can't go, sir,

88
00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:50,520
Speaker 1: No you can't go certain oh hey Marcellus, And I'm like,

89
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:52,960
Speaker 1: I don't have access to that, but now I do.

90
00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:56,279
Speaker 1: I always tell this story famously of how Doug Flutie

91
00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:58,400
Speaker 1: and I went to a game before and I was like, Doug,

92
00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:00,880
Speaker 1: we ain't got no tickets, and Doug look me like, yeah,

93
00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:03,359
Speaker 1: we do, and just walked in and I was like,

94
00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:06,080
Speaker 1: I'm walking in with Doug Flutie too. That's my point.

95
00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:08,520
Speaker 1: So if this is true or false, I'm not here

96
00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:12,200
Speaker 1: for that. I'm just telling you that security, that things

97
00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:16,279
Speaker 1: can get compromised at times just because of celebrity. All right.

98
00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:19,520
Speaker 1: So McGregor obviously denied the allegations to his attorney and

99
00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:23,200
Speaker 1: said he won't be in TIMA dated. All right. So

100
00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:27,760
Speaker 1: the UFC issue a statement McGregor everyone in NBA as well.

101
00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:32,320
Speaker 1: They're looking into the allegations and they're conducting a full investigation.

102
00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:36,960
Speaker 1: Now let's talk about this because Connor McGregor kind of

103
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:41,240
Speaker 1: like Trevor Bauer. This is his fifth now incident of

104
00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:46,839
Speaker 1: sexual assault allegations, four of them outside the United States,

105
00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:50,840
Speaker 1: and he has not faced any legal punishment, and at

106
00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:53,880
Speaker 1: least one case was dropped. So we're not in the

107
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:57,520
Speaker 1: conversation of innocence and guilt because this is a he says,

108
00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:02,719
Speaker 1: she say, conversation. Connor and the alleged women who were

109
00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:06,080
Speaker 1: assaulted have to have that conversation. What we're talking about

110
00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:10,520
Speaker 1: is this intersection of celebrity and sports and life and

111
00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:15,400
Speaker 1: what we can learn from situations like this. Now I

112
00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:19,599
Speaker 1: know two things. Let's say it's not true. False allegations,

113
00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:21,360
Speaker 1: false accusations.

114
00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:22,960
Speaker 2: They always say.

115
00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:28,680
Speaker 1: The number one reason for false allegations or accusations are shame.

116
00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:32,960
Speaker 1: If someone feels ashamed, if someone feels embarrassed, if someone

117
00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:33,880
Speaker 1: feels out it.

118
00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:34,599
Speaker 2: Who knows.

119
00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:37,920
Speaker 1: In this scenario, she's broken up from her friend, she says, right,

120
00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:42,200
Speaker 1: she goes into a men's bathroom forcibly or not as

121
00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:45,400
Speaker 1: kind of hard to believe, Like, yeah, at an NBA game,

122
00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:48,960
Speaker 1: someone's grabbing a woman and forcing her into a men's bathroom.

123
00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:52,120
Speaker 1: But it could happen, but I doubt it did so anyway,

124
00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:54,320
Speaker 1: you get into that position. That still doesn't mean yes,

125
00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:56,960
Speaker 1: you can do whatever you want. You can't assault me,

126
00:06:57,120 --> 00:07:00,320
Speaker 1: But to be in that position is already a head

127
00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:03,880
Speaker 1: scratch her and remove from your friend. Where's your friend

128
00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:06,599
Speaker 1: at that time? If you were forced into a men's bathroom,

129
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:10,880
Speaker 1: or did you go into a men's bathroom with Connor McGregor,

130
00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:13,640
Speaker 1: these are all the things that are gonna actually be

131
00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:17,120
Speaker 1: talked about, and you're gonna have to make a decision

132
00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:20,920
Speaker 1: from afar because none of us were there. Right So

133
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:24,280
Speaker 1: in this situation, Connor McGregor just keeps finding himself in

134
00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:28,000
Speaker 1: this position. Trevor Bauer keep finding himself in this position,

135
00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:32,200
Speaker 1: which will make anybody say, I don't know. At first,

136
00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:37,080
Speaker 1: I believe you, but then again again again it comes

137
00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:40,680
Speaker 1: back to what we talked about before, is a communication

138
00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:45,360
Speaker 1: conversation When you're Conda McGregor, maybe you just run past

139
00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:48,320
Speaker 1: some stop signs of communication because you're kind of McGregor.

140
00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:51,480
Speaker 1: You're like, it's funny, it's simple terms. Let me give

141
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:54,520
Speaker 1: it to you this way. Everywhere I go and every

142
00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:58,920
Speaker 1: time I see somebody more famous than I, you notice this, Hey,

143
00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:04,760
Speaker 1: I am Steve. Nice to meet you, Connor. They already

144
00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:08,400
Speaker 1: know you. So therefore, now you assume, after a certain

145
00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:11,400
Speaker 1: amount of time, that everyone knows you, that everyone is

146
00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:14,840
Speaker 1: gonna come up to you, that everyone's going to listen

147
00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:18,800
Speaker 1: to you, that everyone's going to obey you, everyone's going

148
00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:22,080
Speaker 1: to come to you, and that's what happens in situations

149
00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:24,640
Speaker 1: like this. Then you don't communicate all the way. Hey

150
00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:26,080
Speaker 1: you want to go in this bathroom right here? Hey

151
00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:28,080
Speaker 1: you want to mess around? You don't say all that stuff.

152
00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:31,000
Speaker 1: You're just like, oh, they didn't say anything. Let's just

153
00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:35,640
Speaker 1: keep going past potentially some stop signs. So I think

154
00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:38,400
Speaker 1: it's just sad all around because Connor McGregor, obviously I

155
00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:40,160
Speaker 1: don't know if he's still with baby Mama or married

156
00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:43,160
Speaker 1: or whatever. But Connor McGregor don't need to be in

157
00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:46,000
Speaker 1: situations like this, and frankly, the young lady doesn't need

158
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:47,920
Speaker 1: to be in situations like this. You're gonna connect with

159
00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:50,560
Speaker 1: Connor McGregor, go hook up with Conna McGregor Game four,

160
00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:54,520
Speaker 1: NBA Finals bathroom. Maybe not the first choice, but let's

161
00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:57,920
Speaker 1: see how this case goes. And his fifth one oh

162
00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:01,440
Speaker 1: Man might be an issue here. Loving you for the

00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:14,200
Speaker 1: getting this today? Friday'swage away? I'm giving this away when

166
00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:17,880
Speaker 1: I'm gonna do it today? Let me stop. Oh Man,

167
00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:21,040
Speaker 1: got love for you, guys. But the Albany Empire no

168
00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:24,280
Speaker 1: love from the Arena League anymore. Cat y'all, butts up

169
00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:27,560
Speaker 1: out of here. Antonio Brown as well. They got kicked

170
00:09:27,640 --> 00:09:31,560
Speaker 1: out of the Arena League. Let's breathe, y'all. A team

171
00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:34,480
Speaker 1: got kicked out of the league and that team is

172
00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:39,160
Speaker 1: owned by Antonio Brown. Two plus two is really four?

173
00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:42,400
Speaker 1: All right? So the National Arena League kicked the Albany

174
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:46,200
Speaker 1: Empire out of the league Thursday after team owner Antonio

175
00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:50,800
Speaker 1: Brown failed to pay either a required fee or a

176
00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:55,080
Speaker 1: fine he received after recent public comments. All right, So,

177
00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:59,320
Speaker 1: after exhausting all avenues, the na L Board of Owners

178
00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:04,319
Speaker 1: have this unanimously to terminate the membership agreement of the

179
00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:08,400
Speaker 1: Albany Empire. The league said the decision was reached after

180
00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:11,480
Speaker 1: an emergency conference call of the members in goods standing

181
00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:16,719
Speaker 1: to discuss the Empire's failure to pay their league mandated

182
00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:20,679
Speaker 1: and overdue assessments. Some big legal talk of like hey dog,

183
00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:24,439
Speaker 1: where the money at BRUH pay pay up. Homie Brown

184
00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:26,959
Speaker 1: became the majority owner of the Upstate New York team

185
00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:30,680
Speaker 1: in April. April April Oka. He became owner April, so

186
00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:34,000
Speaker 1: but as May we came in, say June, Damn, he

187
00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:36,680
Speaker 1: ain't even have it for two months, basically goodness. Under

188
00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:39,160
Speaker 1: turns of league ownership, all teams are required to pay

189
00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:44,480
Speaker 1: one seventh one seventh of the NAL operating budget via

190
00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:48,439
Speaker 1: monthly transactions. A venmo me Homie won seventh of the money.

191
00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:51,079
Speaker 1: That's what they asked for. The league said Brown made

192
00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:54,880
Speaker 1: the April payment but didn't pay the May fifteenth installment

193
00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:58,760
Speaker 1: of a thousand dollars five for conduct detrimental to the league. Damn,

194
00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:02,000
Speaker 1: one thousand dollars. That's where it started, goodness. And on

195
00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:04,280
Speaker 1: the fifteenth, I know when I was on welfare growing up,

196
00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:08,640
Speaker 1: first third and fifteenth, rich get that check in the

197
00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:10,320
Speaker 1: mail I remember, we used to get all these bills.

198
00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:12,000
Speaker 1: You know, you go to the post off, you go

199
00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:14,520
Speaker 1: to the mailbox, deal bill. Did you see that one

200
00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:17,800
Speaker 1: US government? I think it's a United States Treasury a ah,

201
00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:20,400
Speaker 1: And that was our welfare check. Crazy used to get

202
00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:23,160
Speaker 1: it twice twice a month and then get those food stamps.

203
00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:25,200
Speaker 1: She had to go to the spot. Embarrassing, but I

204
00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:28,200
Speaker 1: went through it the fifteenth. Come on, Antonio, pay up,

205
00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:31,480
Speaker 1: pay up, pay up. So Brown also challenged the April payment,

206
00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:34,840
Speaker 1: which was credited back to him. Oh he won that one, okay,

207
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:39,680
Speaker 1: So the NAL said the team accountant informed officials that

208
00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:41,679
Speaker 1: it didn't seem like mister Brown was going to pay

209
00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:44,679
Speaker 1: the assessment or fine, leading to the emergency conference call.

210
00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:45,400
Speaker 2: I love that.

211
00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:49,440
Speaker 1: Imagine a board of all the owners or executives and

212
00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:53,840
Speaker 1: they're outside looking at Antonio and the Albany Empire. What

213
00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:56,400
Speaker 1: are they gonna do? So they get on the phone

214
00:11:56,920 --> 00:11:59,680
Speaker 1: or they talked to the accountant of the Albany Empire

215
00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:03,440
Speaker 1: and they literally say, does seem like mister Brown's gonna

216
00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:06,640
Speaker 1: pay the assessment, which means not only is he not

217
00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:08,960
Speaker 1: gonna pay it, but I'm not sure if he is

218
00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:11,800
Speaker 1: or not. You hear the doubt and that they don't

219
00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:14,480
Speaker 1: even know, and they work for him, work with him,

220
00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:17,680
Speaker 1: and they don't know. So of course the outsiders, the

221
00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:21,040
Speaker 1: NAL is obviously gonna take issue with this. So the

222
00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:24,600
Speaker 1: membership gave the Empire to noon to make the payment.

223
00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:27,800
Speaker 1: Obviously they didn't, so when they didn't pay, they canceled

224
00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:32,000
Speaker 1: the team's Saturday home game against the Turner. Y'all don't

225
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:35,840
Speaker 1: know that team, the Jacksonville Sharks, like LLL used to

226
00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:36,520
Speaker 1: do like a.

227
00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:37,760
Speaker 2: Shark's fin man.

228
00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:39,720
Speaker 1: I never heard of that team, and it will adjust

229
00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:42,840
Speaker 1: the rest of the league's twenty twenty three regular season

230
00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:47,240
Speaker 1: schedule without the Albanye squad man. This is all bad,

231
00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:52,920
Speaker 1: all bad. I've been resisting. I've been resisting giving up

232
00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:55,440
Speaker 1: on a b like a lot of people have. I

233
00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:58,880
Speaker 1: hear you, guys, the comments. People I talk to friend

234
00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:01,120
Speaker 1: man forget AB, and I'm like, no, I'm not gonna

235
00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:04,360
Speaker 1: forget AB, because I haven't forgotten how AB was built.

236
00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:06,080
Speaker 2: And this is a train wreck.

237
00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:08,439
Speaker 1: Allow of you guys attributed to the hit he took

238
00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:12,760
Speaker 1: Vontes Berfink the Cincinnati Bengals gang and saying this is

239
00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:17,000
Speaker 1: real life living CTE. I am not a doctor. You're

240
00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:20,079
Speaker 1: not either, so I'm not going to diagnose this, especially

241
00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:25,480
Speaker 1: CTE can't be diagnosed until you're dead anyway. But that said,

242
00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:29,680
Speaker 1: AB had a really dark upbringing and I'm not trying

243
00:13:29,679 --> 00:13:32,000
Speaker 1: to make excuses for him. I'm actually trying to explain

244
00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:36,360
Speaker 1: this behavior because his demons that he had to suppress

245
00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:39,840
Speaker 1: to become Ab the Great are now on full display.

246
00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:43,120
Speaker 1: Like literally, this is the importance of upbringing. That's why

247
00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:45,680
Speaker 1: it's so important to be a parent and be committed

248
00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:49,280
Speaker 1: and be present, so important to support youngsters as they're

249
00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:53,000
Speaker 1: growing because if not, all of those issues and those

250
00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:57,200
Speaker 1: defense mechanisms will be on display in moments like this.

251
00:13:57,679 --> 00:14:00,880
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna be real looking back at it now.

252
00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:05,920
Speaker 1: The worst thing to happen to AB was his success.

253
00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:08,640
Speaker 1: Let me tell you why, because I root for everybody.

254
00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:13,320
Speaker 1: But his success is now undermining everything he's built. And

255
00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:18,520
Speaker 1: he's doing it because Ab had to do it by himself.

256
00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:20,640
Speaker 1: At least he felt that in his head. He had

257
00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:22,680
Speaker 1: it so rough that he was like, the only way

258
00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:25,120
Speaker 1: I'm gonna get it is if I go get it,

259
00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:29,640
Speaker 1: because nobody's helping me, nobody's supporting me. Read about AB's

260
00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:33,160
Speaker 1: history growing up pretty dark, right. So then when that guy,

261
00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:37,440
Speaker 1: the humble Ab remember him, quiet little receiver just going

262
00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:40,920
Speaker 1: about his work, finally gets to the top, becomes the man,

263
00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:43,880
Speaker 1: gets empowered, guess what he's thinking.

264
00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:46,280
Speaker 2: I did this by myself.

265
00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:50,960
Speaker 1: I'm not listening to anybody or anything, and that's where

266
00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:54,360
Speaker 1: we are right now. He got empowered, he reached his goal,

267
00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:57,880
Speaker 1: he got there by himself, and all of that is

268
00:14:57,960 --> 00:15:02,240
Speaker 1: now on full display. I wish he had exercised his

269
00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:06,360
Speaker 1: demons instead right now, letting his demons flex for the

270
00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:09,280
Speaker 1: world to see. Hey Man, thoughts and support prayers to

271
00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:11,640
Speaker 1: ab Man. I don't want to see this train wreck anymore.

272
00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:14,920
Speaker 1: Get this stuff together, big dog, loving life, because somebody

273
00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:17,880
Speaker 1: gonna win the Friday swag away.

274
00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:21,720
Speaker 2: They came here today.

275
00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:24,240
Speaker 1: This child is on the way. Yes, I'm gonna hook

276
00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:26,560
Speaker 1: y'all up. I don't know who yet, so stop asking.

277
00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:28,960
Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm gonna hook somebody up one of

278
00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:31,760
Speaker 1: the members, because that's love from you guys for your viewership,

279
00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:35,680
Speaker 1: brings TV recB membership while these world you two. Let's

280
00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:39,160
Speaker 1: get into this story. Though interesting, Scott Van Pelt said

281
00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:42,880
Speaker 1: there's no chance he'll be hosting Sports Center in three years. Ooh,

282
00:15:42,920 --> 00:15:45,520
Speaker 1: so we all know what's going on at ESPN Disney

283
00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:48,200
Speaker 1: right now. It seems like a mass exodus, a lot

284
00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:51,920
Speaker 1: of people leaving, or a lot of people holding their

285
00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:54,240
Speaker 1: breath to see if they're leaving. You know, we see

286
00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:56,920
Speaker 1: Neil Everett of late was the last one I saw.

287
00:15:56,960 --> 00:16:00,640
Speaker 1: So Scott Van Pelt's presence on the midnight edition Sports

288
00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:04,480
Speaker 1: Center still is a constant. Like all this change and

289
00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:07,720
Speaker 1: you see Pat McAfee coming, and you see Neil leaving,

290
00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:08,680
Speaker 1: and you're like, who.

291
00:16:08,480 --> 00:16:09,160
Speaker 2: Else is leaving?

292
00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:12,600
Speaker 1: Got to make some more space? Boom right there anchored

293
00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:16,200
Speaker 1: is always that anchor, Scott Van Pelt. But for how

294
00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:20,120
Speaker 1: much longer? That's really sounds like it's on Scott Van

295
00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:24,120
Speaker 1: Pelt to the side. So the Sports Center veteran recently

296
00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:26,920
Speaker 1: was talking to SI and he said his time in

297
00:16:26,920 --> 00:16:30,760
Speaker 1: the anchor chair maybe coming to an end pretty soon.

298
00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:34,359
Speaker 1: Doubting that he'll last another three years in his current capacity,

299
00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:37,800
Speaker 1: he says, quote, I've been doing this a long time,

300
00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:41,720
Speaker 1: and you know he moved from ESPN's Bristol headquarters to

301
00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:46,560
Speaker 1: a hometown in DC. Salute smart man there. He said, Look,

302
00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:49,520
Speaker 1: I don't want to do that forever, and that will

303
00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:52,240
Speaker 1: lead to the natural What would you want to do?

304
00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:54,640
Speaker 1: I don't know. Damn.

305
00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:55,920
Speaker 2: That's it right there.

306
00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:58,760
Speaker 1: So you can see, and this happens in pro sports

307
00:16:58,760 --> 00:16:59,960
Speaker 1: with athletes all the time.

308
00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:02,680
Speaker 2: You're coming into the twilight of your career.

309
00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:06,560
Speaker 1: And you hold on not so much with the same

310
00:17:06,680 --> 00:17:10,280
Speaker 1: grip and love and passion as before. Even though you're committed,

311
00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:14,239
Speaker 1: you're still like, Okay, I can't let go because what

312
00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:16,879
Speaker 1: am I gonna grab next? Right? Kind of like what

313
00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:19,119
Speaker 1: are those things? I don't think they call monkey bars?

314
00:17:19,160 --> 00:17:21,040
Speaker 1: But you know, you go see those jungle gyms and

315
00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:22,719
Speaker 1: you just see the kids and they go like this

316
00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:25,200
Speaker 1: and they grab the next one. You bet them next.

317
00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:26,919
Speaker 1: Sure you got the next one, right, because if you

318
00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:29,760
Speaker 1: don't and you let this go, you know where you're going,

319
00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:32,840
Speaker 1: flat on that ass. So Scott Van Pelt's trying to

320
00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:35,600
Speaker 1: figure out what's the next thing to grab. But in

321
00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:40,000
Speaker 1: this world, in this space now sports media, especially, the

322
00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:44,359
Speaker 1: opportunities are vast and he's seeing obviously more and more

323
00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:48,119
Speaker 1: people take those opportunities. So he insists he still very

324
00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:52,040
Speaker 1: much enjoys Sports Center, like I said, particularly on nights

325
00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:55,120
Speaker 1: like when the Denver Nuggets, he said, wins the championship

326
00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:57,439
Speaker 1: and he gets to look at a team and a

327
00:17:57,520 --> 00:18:01,879
Speaker 1: franchise celebrate their first NBAH championship. But he said the

328
00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:06,199
Speaker 1: daily grind can be difficult, struggling as so many do,

329
00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:10,160
Speaker 1: to find a healthy work life balance. Giving you guys

330
00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:14,479
Speaker 1: some insight behind the curtain. When you do sports media,

331
00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:17,200
Speaker 1: like when you do what Scott Van Pelt does, your

332
00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:22,080
Speaker 1: brain never turns off. If you've ever coached before, your

333
00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:24,840
Speaker 1: brain never turns off in terms of always trying to

334
00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:30,359
Speaker 1: find something else to say, another story, to cover, another topic,

335
00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:33,240
Speaker 1: another angle right, and coaching is an easy way to

336
00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:37,160
Speaker 1: display this. Once you start coaching, everything becomes a play,

337
00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:40,520
Speaker 1: everything becomes a scheme. I'll be riding around sometime. I'll

338
00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:42,479
Speaker 1: be on the freeway and I'm like, oh, this car

339
00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:43,520
Speaker 1: going slow, I'm gonna go around.

340
00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:45,040
Speaker 2: I'm like, oh, that's a good play. I can make

341
00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:46,919
Speaker 2: MJ juice not you know.

342
00:18:47,880 --> 00:18:49,800
Speaker 1: Next thing, I'm at a light, I'm texting them, I'm

343
00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:52,760
Speaker 1: writing myself back to play and stuff. Same thing when

344
00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:55,359
Speaker 1: you do shows like this, and you know all the time,

345
00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:57,560
Speaker 1: I'm texting back and forth Mikey p story. You hear

346
00:18:57,560 --> 00:19:00,959
Speaker 1: what happened here? Here, We're happening here, ooh catch that one.

347
00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:05,119
Speaker 1: And you're always in this discovery mode. So you're on

348
00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:08,359
Speaker 1: air for an hour, but your brain is on all

349
00:19:08,480 --> 00:19:12,120
Speaker 1: twenty four hours thinking of the next So he's trying

350
00:19:12,119 --> 00:19:14,359
Speaker 1: to find that balance. He says, no chance, I'm doing

351
00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:19,320
Speaker 1: this three more years. He's fifty six years young or old.

352
00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:22,639
Speaker 1: That's how he's feeling right now. So my contract doesn't

353
00:19:22,680 --> 00:19:25,320
Speaker 1: run that long, and there are conversations to be had

354
00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:29,520
Speaker 1: about what all is part of it? A little leverage

355
00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:31,880
Speaker 1: here at some point you just got to step aside

356
00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:35,399
Speaker 1: and let somebody else have it. Are we in the

357
00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:38,320
Speaker 1: middle of a contract negotiation right here, or are we just

358
00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:42,199
Speaker 1: airing out how we emotionally feel. So in addition to

359
00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:44,399
Speaker 1: his Sports center duties, we know he also does the

360
00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:47,440
Speaker 1: golf coverage and he kills it. Oh, I love how

361
00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:49,760
Speaker 1: he does that. It goes to the Masters and other

362
00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:52,840
Speaker 1: major tournaments, and he's also been the voice of reason.

363
00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:55,040
Speaker 1: A lot of people go to Van Pelt because it's

364
00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:58,160
Speaker 1: kind of hard to find him in the same vein,

365
00:19:58,280 --> 00:20:01,720
Speaker 1: in the same light as a lot of other ESPN personalities.

366
00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:04,840
Speaker 1: You always think of him differently, kind of like a

367
00:20:04,880 --> 00:20:07,240
Speaker 1: breath of fresh air, a lot of people say, because

368
00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:09,680
Speaker 1: a lot of the personalities are up there for their

369
00:20:09,800 --> 00:20:14,520
Speaker 1: opinions and the hyperbolic debates that have to happen, right

370
00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:17,479
Speaker 1: so he just seems like he's in a different space.

371
00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:21,000
Speaker 1: He breathes different air because of the format of the

372
00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:23,639
Speaker 1: show and because of who he is as a person.

373
00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:26,040
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, by the way, that's sucker tall. I don't

374
00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:26,600
Speaker 2: know how tall.

375
00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:29,200
Speaker 1: Oh. I remember the first of all, Mell got dang

376
00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:32,000
Speaker 1: like I knew he was like, he looked wiry. I

377
00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:34,040
Speaker 1: was like, all right, so he probably like six three

378
00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:37,000
Speaker 1: because TV makes everybody look taller and bigger and all that.

379
00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:38,919
Speaker 1: And I was like, ah, he about six three. I

380
00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:40,600
Speaker 1: walked up to him. I was like, man, this ain't right.

381
00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:43,320
Speaker 1: I feel like an idy biddy compared to this big

382
00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:46,400
Speaker 1: old dude. Right. So it's good that he's always been

383
00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:49,480
Speaker 1: himself and carved out that space. But he also says

384
00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:51,960
Speaker 1: I don't think it will be cold Turkey in terms

385
00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:56,600
Speaker 1: of his cutting off or removing himself from Sports Center. Listen,

386
00:20:57,040 --> 00:20:59,760
Speaker 1: they have re established the market and they can come

387
00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:02,760
Speaker 1: to me with live numbers and say to me, Van Pelt,

388
00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:06,160
Speaker 1: we really like this thing you do.

389
00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:08,720
Speaker 2: So he basically looking around.

390
00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:11,320
Speaker 1: Like, oh, y'all got Pat McAfee money out there, y'all

391
00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:13,680
Speaker 1: got that Troy Aikman out that, y'all got that Joe

392
00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:15,800
Speaker 1: Buck out there, we got that that vam Pel.

393
00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:17,720
Speaker 2: Why he try to give some of that food?

394
00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:22,600
Speaker 1: I ain't mad but there are other opportunities elsewhere, Shannon Sharp,

395
00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:25,480
Speaker 1: right out there, your boy out there, people out there

396
00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:28,920
Speaker 1: right now in these screeps. He gonna figure out his way. Okay,

397
00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:33,440
Speaker 1: So everyone likes Van Pelt is feeling the itch of opportunity, right,

398
00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:37,720
Speaker 1: what's the next rung to grab and climbing towards my success? Right?

399
00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:40,360
Speaker 1: And he knows that he can do it his way,

400
00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:44,880
Speaker 1: and another way of doing it is direct to consumer.

401
00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:48,479
Speaker 1: Another way of doing it is not necessarily using ESPN

402
00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:51,720
Speaker 1: in his platform anymore. Because you already have name recognition,

403
00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:55,760
Speaker 1: you already have an audience. You can grab them and

404
00:21:55,840 --> 00:21:58,840
Speaker 1: take them and go directly to them. So it's gonna

405
00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:01,120
Speaker 1: be interesting to watch this negotia because they can't act

406
00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:03,240
Speaker 1: like they ain't got the money. Even though they're having

407
00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:05,959
Speaker 1: the budget cuts in the layoffs, they're still investing in

408
00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:09,520
Speaker 1: their future and in the grand way, Pat McAfee, So

409
00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:13,359
Speaker 1: let's see what happens with sb P going forward, because

410
00:22:13,359 --> 00:22:15,840
Speaker 1: he's truly one of my favorites over here.

411
00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:17,439
Speaker 2: Incredible hulking on y'all.

412
00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:21,240
Speaker 1: Ah, I'm almost fifty years old, looking like this, real

413
00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:22,400
Speaker 1: flexing on them.

414
00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:26,160
Speaker 2: Watch this hydration situation. Still got a.

Speaker 1: Little left Man loving you guys, somebody gonna win this soon.

Speaker 1: It's that Friday swag Away got all the love right here.

417
00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:35,160
Speaker 1: But they're breaking news, so I can't wait any longer.

418
00:22:35,359 --> 00:22:38,520
Speaker 1: We need to bring in mikey p with some breaking news.

419
00:22:38,760 --> 00:22:41,159
Speaker 1: What's you about to break? Mike? Let me find out?

420
00:22:41,280 --> 00:22:43,359
Speaker 1: You want to be Adam schefterro up in here. What's

Speaker 3: Oh you ready for this? You ready for this?

423
00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:49,920
Speaker 2: Breaking news?

424
00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:57,560
Speaker 3: John Moran has been suspended twenty five games to start

425
00:22:57,600 --> 00:22:59,320
Speaker 3: in the NBA season.

426
00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:06,280
Speaker 1: Twenty five's official, yes, official sound effects.

427
00:23:06,320 --> 00:23:06,920
Speaker 3: Don't worry.

428
00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:08,760
Speaker 2: That ain't enough. Twenty five.

429
00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:09,320
Speaker 1: That's it.

430
00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:12,080
Speaker 2: I say that's not enough.

431
00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:14,159
Speaker 1: I thought it was gonna really break my head, like

432
00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:17,680
Speaker 1: boom twenty five for doing something you already know you

433
00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:19,879
Speaker 1: shouldn't have did the first time, let alone did it

434
00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:22,520
Speaker 1: the second time, damaging the NBA's brand.

435
00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:24,080
Speaker 2: You know how much negative.

436
00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:27,920
Speaker 1: Press they have now had on their brand because of

437
00:23:28,040 --> 00:23:31,480
Speaker 1: Ja Morant doing something not once, but twice. And look,

438
00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:35,560
Speaker 1: I am not rooting for anybody's downfall. All I'm saying

439
00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:38,520
Speaker 1: is you gotta make an example of John Morant. And

440
00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:41,880
Speaker 1: I don't think twenty five games really makes an example.

441
00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:44,800
Speaker 1: But eight games didn't make an example or set them

442
00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:49,119
Speaker 1: straight as well. But at least we have a definitive number.

443
00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:52,800
Speaker 1: I really thought, think about it. The malliceon Palace, Malice

444
00:23:52,840 --> 00:23:56,240
Speaker 1: in the Palace. What did they get a year? What

445
00:23:57,320 --> 00:24:00,800
Speaker 1: do they do? They sat there on the court, someone

446
00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:05,680
Speaker 1: threw beer on them, cats were like rowing stuff, assaulting them,

447
00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:07,800
Speaker 1: and then they went up there. Now they ain't This

448
00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:10,640
Speaker 1: ain't defense. This ain't self defense going up there. But

449
00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:14,639
Speaker 1: the point is I return fire. Okay, you lose a

450
00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:18,600
Speaker 1: year of playing ball for that. And then John Morant

451
00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:22,399
Speaker 1: is sitting there flashing a gun and then you're like,

452
00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:25,760
Speaker 1: all right, that ain't good. Now it's not illegal, but

453
00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:29,040
Speaker 1: it's also not good. You're hurting a brand. And then

454
00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:31,360
Speaker 1: you say, don't do it. And then he comes back

455
00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:34,439
Speaker 1: and does it again. So he's basically flippant, like, man, whatever,

456
00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:37,800
Speaker 1: I'm do it again. And then you're like, okay, now

457
00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:40,760
Speaker 1: you got twenty five games. All I'm saying is either

458
00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:43,920
Speaker 1: they learned that the punishment for mouse in the Palace

459
00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:49,159
Speaker 1: was too much excessive, or this ain't enough. You gotta

460
00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:53,320
Speaker 1: make it make sense, Mikey p unbelievable.

461
00:24:53,359 --> 00:24:56,320
Speaker 3: There will be conditions for reinstatement, but we don't know

462
00:24:56,400 --> 00:24:59,960
Speaker 3: them at this time either way, though, big time WOJE bomb,

463
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:03,240
Speaker 3: I'm on a Friday Wow. And then John released a statement.

464
00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:05,480
Speaker 3: I'll let you address this too real quick before we

465
00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:09,479
Speaker 3: move on to our three Wiley's real guests today. Okay,

466
00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:12,320
Speaker 3: you got three of them, but here's a statement.

467
00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:18,479
Speaker 2: All right.

468
00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:21,920
Speaker 3: I've had time to reflect and I realize how much

469
00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:25,720
Speaker 3: hurt I've caused. I want to apologize to the NBA,

470
00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:29,320
Speaker 3: the Grizzlies, my teammates, and the city of Memphis, to

471
00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:33,879
Speaker 3: Adam Silver, Zach Kleman, Robert Perra, who gave me the

472
00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:37,040
Speaker 3: opportunity to be a professional athlete and have supported me.

473
00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:40,919
Speaker 3: I am sorry for the harm I've done. And he

474
00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:42,639
Speaker 3: also said to the kids who look up to me.

475
00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:46,080
Speaker 3: And there's more to it, But what do you think

476
00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:48,639
Speaker 3: of the statement? Do you really think he means it

477
00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:51,199
Speaker 3: this time? Is he gonna flash the gun again in

478
00:25:51,240 --> 00:25:51,879
Speaker 3: a couple of weeks?

479
00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:55,560
Speaker 1: I don't know. Uh. Look, I hate to beat this guy.

480
00:25:56,560 --> 00:25:59,600
Speaker 1: I don't believe it. I hate to be like, can

481
00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:01,640
Speaker 1: you come on as a hater? But I am a hater,

482
00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:04,200
Speaker 1: Dan damn it, because I got I got principles and

483
00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:06,359
Speaker 1: like I don't even need to hear all that, Like

484
00:26:06,560 --> 00:26:09,199
Speaker 1: I heard one, I already heard all that. Two. I

485
00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:11,960
Speaker 1: want to make sure we separate his apology from his

486
00:26:12,119 --> 00:26:15,840
Speaker 1: next action, because you can apologize and still do it,

487
00:26:16,040 --> 00:26:18,840
Speaker 1: you cannot apologize and never do it. So I don't

488
00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:20,920
Speaker 1: you know this step right here is like to try

489
00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:23,560
Speaker 1: and get brands and people back into the fold. You

490
00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:25,159
Speaker 1: know how you get me back into the fold. Just

491
00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:28,560
Speaker 1: don't do it. I will remember that Jah Moran's amazing

492
00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:31,800
Speaker 1: basketball player, and this will fade away as long as

493
00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:34,359
Speaker 1: you don't do it. But this apology and the same

494
00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:38,080
Speaker 1: apology is the first time it's really unnecessary for me

495
00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:41,400
Speaker 1: because it doesn't sound like he's contrite. I had time

496
00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:45,040
Speaker 1: to reflect what you're reflecting on, like the not the

497
00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:47,640
Speaker 1: flash of gun like you in the video, and you're

498
00:26:47,640 --> 00:26:51,520
Speaker 1: really gonna be in a dangerous situation, Like it's just irresponsible,

499
00:26:51,720 --> 00:26:55,760
Speaker 1: that's it, not illegal, irresponsible. So right now, I don't

500
00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:58,880
Speaker 1: think any words is gonna make me think you're more responsible.

501
00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:00,720
Speaker 1: It's just gonna be actions.

502
00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:01,560
Speaker 2: We appreciate you.

503
00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:06,120
Speaker 1: Mikey Peepe bring on these Wild World members right now,

504
00:27:06,160 --> 00:27:08,359
Speaker 1: get Mike get pe up off the screen, Get Wold's

510
00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:28,359
Speaker 1: Man. I like that. You got the Polo Rugby on

511
00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:32,200
Speaker 1: looking fresh. Talk to me, big dog. Okay.

512
00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:33,760
Speaker 4: I got a few questions for you, a little run

513
00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:39,040
Speaker 4: down here, So nonsports question, Like, what are some books

514
00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:39,600
Speaker 4: that you read?

515
00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:41,080
Speaker 1: What are some books that you read when you.

516
00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:43,879
Speaker 4: Were like younger or maybe even recently that had like

517
00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:47,159
Speaker 4: a last lasting impact on you, like maybe like psychologically

518
00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:50,000
Speaker 4: or like a mindset shift something like that, going to

519
00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:53,120
Speaker 4: like from like sports to business, and like.

520
00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:55,679
Speaker 2: M I love that.

521
00:27:55,800 --> 00:28:00,600
Speaker 1: Man. I look, there's one book growing up, I read Bible.

522
00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:05,359
Speaker 1: My grandmother, in a gentle way, forced us to read it,

523
00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:08,159
Speaker 1: and I was glad she did. Man. I look at

524
00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:11,520
Speaker 1: the Bible as a psychological book. I don't look at

525
00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:14,280
Speaker 1: it as a literal translation that may offend some people.

526
00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:17,080
Speaker 1: I am sorry. I'm just telling you how I digested it.

527
00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:20,640
Speaker 1: I got so many life lessons from the Bible. Man.

528
00:28:21,040 --> 00:28:24,240
Speaker 1: And I'm not walking around here just looking at everyone

529
00:28:24,280 --> 00:28:27,199
Speaker 1: as Christian, non Christian. It was just to me a

530
00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:30,480
Speaker 1: holy book showing you your inner power, showing you how

531
00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:32,160
Speaker 1: the dynamics of this world work.

532
00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:33,840
Speaker 2: So that's how I took the Bible.

533
00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:36,200
Speaker 1: At first, I read it like everyone like, oh, this

534
00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:39,360
Speaker 1: all happened on this day and Adam and Eve I

535
00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:41,680
Speaker 1: wonder where they were, you know, And then I kind

536
00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:44,320
Speaker 1: of went into a different dimension with it. But the

537
00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:47,120
Speaker 1: best book I ever read before I get to that.

538
00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:49,800
Speaker 1: Then from there, I would say there was a book

539
00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:54,520
Speaker 1: called The Warrior Athlete. Amazing talks about your mind, your body,

540
00:28:54,880 --> 00:28:57,600
Speaker 1: and your spirit and how you use them all for

541
00:28:57,840 --> 00:29:02,040
Speaker 1: the journey of life. And it's The Warrior Athlete. Tremendous book.

542
00:29:02,960 --> 00:29:05,440
Speaker 1: Self talk was a great book I read in college.

543
00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:07,880
Speaker 1: Don't ask me the authors of any of these books,

544
00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:12,640
Speaker 1: but Google is our friends, and then outliers stuff like

545
00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:15,800
Speaker 1: that anything Malcolm glad will right like, I pretty much

546
00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:19,800
Speaker 1: picked that up. But the best book ever ever, by far,

547
00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:23,320
Speaker 1: not even close changed my life was the book of

548
00:29:23,360 --> 00:29:27,680
Speaker 1: my life. I am talking about this is the best

549
00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:32,640
Speaker 1: book ever. And going forward, which is hilarious. Everyone's like, dog,

550
00:29:32,760 --> 00:29:34,600
Speaker 1: I love these jerseys you're giving away.

551
00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:38,880
Speaker 2: Thank you for these little cups. That rattle and playing cards.

552
00:29:39,040 --> 00:29:42,200
Speaker 1: But dammit, the show is called Never Shut Up? Can

553
00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:45,040
Speaker 1: you please give out autograph copies of your book? So

554
00:29:45,160 --> 00:29:48,560
Speaker 1: starting next week we're gonna do Friday swag Away with

555
00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:50,480
Speaker 1: autograph copies of my book.

556
00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:51,640
Speaker 2: What else you got, Adrian?

557
00:29:53,000 --> 00:29:56,600
Speaker 4: Okay? What do you think is the next major evolution

558
00:29:56,800 --> 00:29:59,040
Speaker 4: in sports media?

559
00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:04,640
Speaker 1: Ah? I love that the next frontier of sports media.

560
00:30:04,680 --> 00:30:08,440
Speaker 1: I think it's really everyone getting in front of the

561
00:30:08,560 --> 00:30:14,760
Speaker 1: audience doing this in some version, some style, not necessarily

562
00:30:14,840 --> 00:30:19,960
Speaker 1: hiding behind the platform of an ESPN or a Fox. Now,

563
00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:23,440
Speaker 1: the tough thing is how do you come in with audience? Right?

564
00:30:24,080 --> 00:30:25,800
Speaker 1: You got to have an audience, You gotta have a

565
00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:28,120
Speaker 1: built in name, you gotta have a likeness that people

566
00:30:28,160 --> 00:30:31,960
Speaker 1: already gravitate towards. And those platforms give you that, but

567
00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:35,680
Speaker 1: more than that, the security that they give you in

568
00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:39,000
Speaker 1: terms of employment. You have to weigh those two things

569
00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:42,320
Speaker 1: out versus Hey, I can make as much, if not

570
00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:46,400
Speaker 1: more money doing it direct to consumers. So as we

571
00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:50,600
Speaker 1: see the numbers grow in terms of the population on YouTube,

572
00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:53,480
Speaker 1: how many people watch videos, how many people just watch

573
00:30:53,480 --> 00:30:55,720
Speaker 1: and want to connect with us, It's just going to

574
00:30:55,800 --> 00:30:59,200
Speaker 1: be more and more encouraging for the Pat mcafeees out

575
00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:02,400
Speaker 1: there and etc. To just do it this way, and

576
00:31:02,440 --> 00:31:06,720
Speaker 1: the brands are gonna plug into the actual talent. They're

577
00:31:06,720 --> 00:31:10,040
Speaker 1: gonna plug into me instead of plugging into ESPN. So

578
00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:14,000
Speaker 1: long story short, when you work there, they get tons

579
00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:17,680
Speaker 1: of support and sponsorship and brands coming in and plugging

580
00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:20,720
Speaker 1: into them. But all they do is say, here's your check,

581
00:31:20,800 --> 00:31:24,840
Speaker 1: don't ask any questions. Meanwhile, you know they're making much

582
00:31:24,880 --> 00:31:27,640
Speaker 1: more money because the brand is coming in at ten

583
00:31:27,920 --> 00:31:30,560
Speaker 1: x and they're giving you one x of that one

584
00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:33,320
Speaker 1: tenth of that. So I just think the next dimension is,

585
00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:35,760
Speaker 1: let's cut out the middleman. Ice Cube said that, like

586
00:31:35,800 --> 00:31:39,360
Speaker 1: thirty years ago, cut out the middleman and go directly

587
00:31:39,400 --> 00:31:40,160
Speaker 1: to your audience.

588
00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:46,560
Speaker 4: Okay, and my last question is, what was that aha

589
00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:49,280
Speaker 4: moment that you knew that you can make it playing football?

590
00:31:50,640 --> 00:31:57,400
Speaker 1: Ah? Wow, make it playing football, Like just in general,

591
00:31:57,480 --> 00:31:59,760
Speaker 1: I was damn good my first year.

592
00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:02,320
Speaker 2: I was insane my second year.

593
00:32:02,360 --> 00:32:05,320
Speaker 1: So at eight, I played with the best football player

594
00:32:05,360 --> 00:32:08,160
Speaker 1: that I've ever seen with my own eyeballs. His name

595
00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:09,280
Speaker 1: is Stace' Bozeman.

596
00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:11,080
Speaker 2: Google him. He was insane.

597
00:32:11,160 --> 00:32:15,120
Speaker 1: Number one in the country in high school football USA today,

598
00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:19,200
Speaker 1: number one, number two in the country in basketball. He

599
00:32:19,280 --> 00:32:23,280
Speaker 1: chose basketball like everyone did at that time, more money, obviously,

600
00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:26,840
Speaker 1: less physical of a sport less brutal, and he made

601
00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:29,040
Speaker 1: it to the NBA for this long he played overseas.

602
00:32:29,080 --> 00:32:32,240
Speaker 1: Now he's a counselor in Minnesota. Salute to my boy.

603
00:32:32,680 --> 00:32:35,360
Speaker 1: But State's Boan bestketball player I ever seen in my life.

604
00:32:35,440 --> 00:32:38,680
Speaker 1: Insane quarterback before you saw this dual threat like that.

605
00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:42,160
Speaker 1: He was nasty, But that year I played with him,

606
00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:44,280
Speaker 1: he was better than me by far. And then he

607
00:32:44,320 --> 00:32:46,160
Speaker 1: moved up because he was so damn good. He was

608
00:32:46,200 --> 00:32:48,680
Speaker 1: like y'all too sorry. He was scoring like six touchdowns

609
00:32:48,720 --> 00:32:51,400
Speaker 1: a game. He was insane. Then that next year when

610
00:32:51,400 --> 00:32:53,920
Speaker 1: he was gone and it was just me, me the

611
00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:56,880
Speaker 1: fast guy to track champion. Oh. I knew then I

612
00:32:56,960 --> 00:32:59,160
Speaker 1: was gonna be good as hell in football. But my

613
00:33:00,280 --> 00:33:03,840
Speaker 1: moment was, I think my senior year, just looking at

614
00:33:03,840 --> 00:33:06,720
Speaker 1: the sideline. It was nothing I did, it was who

615
00:33:06,760 --> 00:33:09,320
Speaker 1: was in attendance. I looked to the sideline and there

616
00:33:09,360 --> 00:33:13,320
Speaker 1: was like Bill Belichick and Bill Parcells and scouts and

617
00:33:13,400 --> 00:33:18,440
Speaker 1: gms everywhere at Columbia, and I'm like, all right, it's

618
00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:21,360
Speaker 1: about to happen. Aha, your boy then made it because

619
00:33:21,360 --> 00:33:23,160
Speaker 1: they wouldn't be here if I wasn't gonna make it.

620
00:33:23,320 --> 00:33:25,760
Speaker 1: So I appreciate you. Adrian man, that's love. Brother. You

621
00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:30,080
Speaker 1: could come on anytime. That's how we roll on Wiley's World.

622
00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:33,240
Speaker 1: Now get the polo in the rugby. You gotta get

623
00:33:33,240 --> 00:33:36,280
Speaker 1: Adrian up off here, and we're gonna bring in our

624
00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:39,120
Speaker 1: next wily world member.

625
00:33:39,640 --> 00:33:41,280
Speaker 2: And his name is Timothy.

626
00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:44,480
Speaker 1: So I got callown one time, calling one of my tea,

627
00:33:44,720 --> 00:33:47,440
Speaker 1: my little kids that I coached, tim He looked at

628
00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:50,320
Speaker 1: me at seven years old, said it's Timothy. So Timothy,

629
00:33:50,360 --> 00:33:52,959
Speaker 1: come on there here no pauses between this, bring him

630
00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:55,360
Speaker 1: in here. I don't want to see Timothy, big dog

631
00:33:55,440 --> 00:33:58,320
Speaker 1: in the house. What's up, Timothy? Yes?

632
00:33:58,320 --> 00:34:00,640
Speaker 5: So how you throwing Marcella's have to be here?

633
00:34:01,360 --> 00:34:01,640
Speaker 1: Man?

634
00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:04,200
Speaker 2: You look huge? Like you bigger than the damn screen?

635
00:34:04,280 --> 00:34:04,560
Speaker 1: Are you?

636
00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:09,359
Speaker 2: Six thirteen? How big? Represent man?

637
00:34:11,719 --> 00:34:12,000
Speaker 1: Hey?

638
00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:12,280
Speaker 2: Five?

639
00:34:12,360 --> 00:34:16,520
Speaker 5: So I agree with John Yeah, five teens try to

640
00:34:16,560 --> 00:34:19,799
Speaker 5: play it all. So I agree with you that John

641
00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:24,680
Speaker 5: Moran should be suspended. I'm thinking fifty games. But my

642
00:34:24,880 --> 00:34:27,200
Speaker 5: question to you is this, do you believe that the

643
00:34:27,239 --> 00:34:31,640
Speaker 5: reason why the commissioner decided to not suspend him for

644
00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:34,920
Speaker 5: fifty games or more, is his confidence might not be

645
00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:37,640
Speaker 5: the same because I think the players like Gilbert Arenas,

646
00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:40,799
Speaker 5: who was a dog. Was he the same player after

647
00:34:40,840 --> 00:34:41,600
Speaker 5: his suspension?

648
00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:46,160
Speaker 6: So do you to have something to do with Hey,

649
00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:49,280
Speaker 6: we might he is a billion dollar you know, billion

650
00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:52,440
Speaker 6: dollar man. But do you also think because the suspension,

651
00:34:52,719 --> 00:34:54,720
Speaker 6: and we've seen in the past with some of these issues,

652
00:34:54,960 --> 00:34:57,400
Speaker 6: maybe we don't want to affect his confidence because he

653
00:34:57,560 --> 00:34:59,600
Speaker 6: is because he is a star in this league.

654
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:02,760
Speaker 1: So like the grounds that we stood on for mouse

655
00:35:02,800 --> 00:35:04,920
Speaker 1: in the palace are not the same as the ground

656
00:35:04,960 --> 00:35:08,759
Speaker 1: that we're standing on in punishment for John Morant repeating

657
00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:12,040
Speaker 1: for the twelfth time he did nothing that was illegal,

658
00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:16,600
Speaker 1: just irresponsible and bad and damaging to the brand of

659
00:35:16,640 --> 00:35:20,600
Speaker 1: the NBA at large. So in this situation, I wanted

660
00:35:20,719 --> 00:35:23,400
Speaker 1: more because I need that type of example.

661
00:35:23,880 --> 00:35:27,120
Speaker 2: I need every player in this league, the other.

662
00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:29,680
Speaker 1: Four hundred and forty nine players, to be like, damn,

663
00:35:30,200 --> 00:35:33,840
Speaker 1: that's what they're not playing with this one. Because social

664
00:35:33,880 --> 00:35:36,440
Speaker 1: media and the way that this message got out and

665
00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:39,560
Speaker 1: how viral it went, and now every time you talk

666
00:35:39,600 --> 00:35:42,680
Speaker 1: about Jahn Morant, which is an association with the NBA,

667
00:35:42,840 --> 00:35:46,320
Speaker 1: is gonna be a connection of something negative. So until

668
00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:48,760
Speaker 1: he gets back on that court and balls and balls

669
00:35:48,800 --> 00:35:51,480
Speaker 1: and years and years, we're always gonna bring this up

670
00:35:51,480 --> 00:35:54,200
Speaker 1: every time I see metaworld peace in my real life, Like,

671
00:35:54,200 --> 00:35:57,160
Speaker 1: what's up, big dog? I can't lie every time I

672
00:35:57,200 --> 00:35:59,400
Speaker 1: see him, I'm like, yeah, you went up in them

673
00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:01,600
Speaker 1: stands and did that thing. So I think that's something

674
00:36:01,640 --> 00:36:04,719
Speaker 1: that's always gonna stain our brain. But going forward, the

675
00:36:04,840 --> 00:36:08,520
Speaker 1: NBA is just like, look, we can't just throw out

676
00:36:08,560 --> 00:36:11,319
Speaker 1: the baby with the bath water. Twenty five games and

677
00:36:11,360 --> 00:36:13,560
Speaker 1: their eyes is enough. He's gonna miss time. We're gonna

678
00:36:13,560 --> 00:36:16,680
Speaker 1: miss the superstar. But then hopefully the lesson is learned.

679
00:36:17,000 --> 00:36:19,080
Speaker 1: Got something else on your chest or that's good?

680
00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:22,319
Speaker 5: No, I actually have something else to me. I want

681
00:36:22,360 --> 00:36:24,920
Speaker 5: to I want to further along the conversation because I

682
00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:28,440
Speaker 5: believe that's why veterans are so important, because you know,

683
00:36:28,560 --> 00:36:30,840
Speaker 5: like Gilbert Aarenez was on his podcast and he was

684
00:36:30,880 --> 00:36:33,799
Speaker 5: talking about how you know it was actually a bodyguard,

685
00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:35,799
Speaker 5: and he was like, Yo, you can't be out here

686
00:36:36,080 --> 00:36:37,960
Speaker 5: till two a clock.

687
00:36:38,200 --> 00:36:40,280
Speaker 1: Nothing happens good at two o'clock.

688
00:36:40,520 --> 00:36:43,960
Speaker 5: We need to leave at like one or twelve. Talk

689
00:36:44,040 --> 00:36:47,640
Speaker 5: about from your experience as a professional, like as a rookie.

690
00:36:47,760 --> 00:36:54,320
Speaker 5: What kind of insight or you know, wisdom did veterans

691
00:36:54,320 --> 00:36:57,120
Speaker 5: give to you and your playing career that helps you

692
00:36:57,800 --> 00:37:00,960
Speaker 5: and something that passed that she actually excuse me, something

693
00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:05,000
Speaker 5: that you actually used to help young people when you

694
00:37:05,040 --> 00:37:05,560
Speaker 5: were the better.

695
00:37:06,440 --> 00:37:09,919
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, more than veterans for me, even though

696
00:37:09,920 --> 00:37:12,640
Speaker 1: that's the way we term it. I didn't need a

697
00:37:12,719 --> 00:37:15,560
Speaker 1: veteran to tell me stuff. I needed anybody who was

698
00:37:15,640 --> 00:37:18,239
Speaker 1: responsible to tell me stuff because sometimes I ain't gonna

699
00:37:18,239 --> 00:37:21,680
Speaker 1: lie to y'all. Some of the older dudes, they weren't.

700
00:37:21,760 --> 00:37:24,320
Speaker 1: They weren't the ones that listened to doll like y'all

701
00:37:24,400 --> 00:37:27,000
Speaker 1: the old NFL. You know, the Hall of Fame is.

702
00:37:26,960 --> 00:37:29,239
Speaker 2: Like literal, Like imagine Lawrence Taylor is.

703
00:37:29,239 --> 00:37:32,560
Speaker 1: Your your vet. You listen to Lawrence Taylor, you better

704
00:37:32,680 --> 00:37:35,440
Speaker 1: not like and but he could get away with that.

705
00:37:35,640 --> 00:37:37,919
Speaker 1: Imagine you're a golfer and Tiger Woods is your vet,

706
00:37:38,440 --> 00:37:43,759
Speaker 1: like I know, like Jordan is your vet. Like so

707
00:37:43,880 --> 00:37:46,400
Speaker 1: a lot of times it's kind of like it's lazy.

708
00:37:46,760 --> 00:37:47,359
Speaker 1: We do it.

709
00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:50,400
Speaker 2: We're guilty as well of saying vets vets. Nah.

710
00:37:50,520 --> 00:37:54,480
Speaker 1: I knew some rookies LT Ladany and Thomason as a rookie.

711
00:37:54,800 --> 00:37:57,920
Speaker 1: I remember going to his house and he married his

712
00:37:58,000 --> 00:38:00,800
Speaker 1: college sweet Art Porsche, and I mean as a rookie,

713
00:38:00,880 --> 00:38:03,080
Speaker 1: but they weren't married yet, I don't think. And I

714
00:38:03,120 --> 00:38:06,400
Speaker 1: remember talking to him and I swear, and I'm in

715
00:38:06,440 --> 00:38:08,960
Speaker 1: my sixth year in the league or something and he's

716
00:38:08,960 --> 00:38:10,440
Speaker 1: a rookie, and I swear.

717
00:38:10,440 --> 00:38:11,560
Speaker 2: I remember driving home.

718
00:38:11,600 --> 00:38:16,440
Speaker 1: Was like, dog, this dude is different, like focus, not

719
00:38:16,480 --> 00:38:19,960
Speaker 1: trying to party, not trying to hang, none of that stuff.

720
00:38:20,280 --> 00:38:22,200
Speaker 1: And he was a rookie and I'm the vet. He's

721
00:38:22,200 --> 00:38:24,680
Speaker 1: supposed to be listening to me. Don't listen to that dude.

722
00:38:24,800 --> 00:38:27,879
Speaker 1: So my point is this that like what I did

723
00:38:27,920 --> 00:38:32,200
Speaker 1: get in great advice was some funny stuff to some

724
00:38:32,239 --> 00:38:35,200
Speaker 1: real stuff. The funny stuff was don't buy real jewelry.

725
00:38:35,400 --> 00:38:38,640
Speaker 1: Don't buy anything that's real. People already know you got money,

726
00:38:38,680 --> 00:38:41,360
Speaker 1: so they go to assume its real. Buy the cheap stuff.

727
00:38:41,480 --> 00:38:43,520
Speaker 1: I remember my boy told me that Derek comes said

728
00:38:43,560 --> 00:38:46,480
Speaker 1: go to Walmart for everything. Do all that stuff right.

729
00:38:46,719 --> 00:38:50,880
Speaker 1: And now the real advice was live out your sport

730
00:38:51,040 --> 00:38:54,120
Speaker 1: ball to your fall like treat this like you are

731
00:38:54,160 --> 00:38:56,640
Speaker 1: a part of the corporation and more.

732
00:38:56,680 --> 00:38:57,040
Speaker 2: Than that.

733
00:38:57,520 --> 00:39:01,479
Speaker 1: Invest in your sport. That's your life in the game

734
00:39:01,520 --> 00:39:04,560
Speaker 1: that you're playing, man, So appreciate your big dog. Man.

Speaker 7: Hey, Hey, thanks for having me back. Man, I appreciate it.

743
00:39:27,080 --> 00:39:29,560
Speaker 7: That job stuff is a lot to unpack, but I'm

744
00:39:29,600 --> 00:39:31,200
Speaker 7: just gonna touch on one small piece.

745
00:39:31,680 --> 00:39:31,839
Speaker 1: Uh.

746
00:39:31,880 --> 00:39:34,880
Speaker 7: Some things are avoidable, right Like you're going live on

747
00:39:34,920 --> 00:39:37,719
Speaker 7: the internet, so like I'm nervous right now. I'm looking

748
00:39:37,760 --> 00:39:39,680
Speaker 7: around for something that's gonna get me caught up.

749
00:39:39,719 --> 00:39:40,839
Speaker 1: And I don't do anything bad.

750
00:39:40,880 --> 00:39:45,680
Speaker 7: Your making sure, I'm all good, but I'm gonna talk

751
00:39:45,680 --> 00:39:49,080
Speaker 7: to other NBA news people are breaking down the dock

752
00:39:49,239 --> 00:39:53,920
Speaker 7: River comments about James Harden being a challenging player coach

753
00:39:54,200 --> 00:39:56,200
Speaker 7: Coach Doc believes that you have to share the ball,

754
00:39:56,280 --> 00:39:57,839
Speaker 7: you have to give it up, move around and you'll

755
00:39:57,840 --> 00:40:00,920
Speaker 7: get it back, you know, let the game flow. He's

756
00:40:01,000 --> 00:40:03,480
Speaker 7: kind of saying that that's not really hard and style

757
00:40:03,600 --> 00:40:06,480
Speaker 7: kind of calling him an old dog that won't learn

758
00:40:06,600 --> 00:40:09,520
Speaker 7: new tricks. Right, So, I mean I love both of them,

759
00:40:09,560 --> 00:40:12,840
Speaker 7: Doc and Harden, and I believe that's what separates great

760
00:40:12,840 --> 00:40:17,080
Speaker 7: coaches and players. Coaches need to get players to buy in,

761
00:40:18,080 --> 00:40:20,000
Speaker 7: and they need to get the most out of each player,

762
00:40:20,239 --> 00:40:23,200
Speaker 7: and players need to buy in and do what's best

763
00:40:23,280 --> 00:40:26,359
Speaker 7: for the team. It's easier said than done, and that's

764
00:40:26,360 --> 00:40:29,160
Speaker 7: why it's only one champion per year. But you know,

765
00:40:29,480 --> 00:40:31,000
Speaker 7: just saying if they were wont to check, it would

766
00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:32,440
Speaker 7: have been a totally different conversation.

767
00:40:33,040 --> 00:40:37,880
Speaker 1: What's your thoughts on this? Yeah, great conversation right here. Look,

768
00:40:38,239 --> 00:40:41,560
Speaker 1: it's a no win situation if you're Doc Rivers because

769
00:40:42,320 --> 00:40:46,160
Speaker 1: you're trying to make James Harden buy in. James Harden's

770
00:40:46,200 --> 00:40:49,600
Speaker 1: not buying in for two reasons. One, James Harden is

771
00:40:49,640 --> 00:40:52,920
Speaker 1: like dog, I've had my success, personal success, maybe not

772
00:40:53,040 --> 00:40:57,239
Speaker 1: ultimate team success, but the best James Harden. Oh, that

773
00:40:57,280 --> 00:40:59,480
Speaker 1: guy ain't trying to hear no other way. But I

774
00:40:59,520 --> 00:41:02,480
Speaker 1: know I'm a found this rock for twenty two seconds

775
00:41:02,719 --> 00:41:04,759
Speaker 1: and then I got two seconds either pass it or

776
00:41:04,800 --> 00:41:07,480
Speaker 1: shoot it. That's life. That's just how I get down,

777
00:41:07,520 --> 00:41:10,440
Speaker 1: and that's how I made my name as James Harden.

778
00:41:11,120 --> 00:41:13,759
Speaker 1: Second thing is James Harden ain't buying in because he

779
00:41:13,800 --> 00:41:16,200
Speaker 1: know this ain't his team, so he like dog, I

780
00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:18,640
Speaker 1: ain't gonna invest all of me and change all of me,

781
00:41:18,880 --> 00:41:21,200
Speaker 1: and you're still gonna run this sucker through Joe, L

782
00:41:21,280 --> 00:41:24,000
Speaker 1: and B. That's why Doc can't win in that situation.

783
00:41:24,200 --> 00:41:27,800
Speaker 1: That's why Doc ultimately had to leave because they knew

784
00:41:28,040 --> 00:41:31,040
Speaker 1: that there's no way that Doc Rivers is gonna convert

785
00:41:31,120 --> 00:41:34,920
Speaker 1: James Harden. And by trying, because Doc Rivers a you know,

786
00:41:35,040 --> 00:41:39,439
Speaker 1: championship coach. He tried and James kept bucking like nah dog,

787
00:41:39,600 --> 00:41:42,440
Speaker 1: nah dog. And then you notice when then B got hurt,

788
00:41:42,760 --> 00:41:44,640
Speaker 1: James Harden went off. He's like, see this is what

789
00:41:44,760 --> 00:41:47,799
Speaker 1: I'm talking about, but this can't work here. So then

790
00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:52,560
Speaker 1: Philadelphia the Sixers was like the only shot we gotta

791
00:41:52,680 --> 00:41:55,840
Speaker 1: getting James Harden and we want them, but we don't

792
00:41:56,000 --> 00:41:59,360
Speaker 1: really really need them, but we really want them is

793
00:41:59,400 --> 00:42:01,560
Speaker 1: to get rid rid of Doc Rivers because Doc Rivers

794
00:42:01,680 --> 00:42:04,239
Speaker 1: is too hard on James Harden, like dog, it ain't

795
00:42:04,280 --> 00:42:07,239
Speaker 1: your team. You gonna have to buy in. You are

796
00:42:07,280 --> 00:42:09,480
Speaker 1: too old to be acting like this and playing that

797
00:42:09,560 --> 00:42:12,920
Speaker 1: way help the team so I think that they just

798
00:42:12,960 --> 00:42:15,680
Speaker 1: got caught in a conundrum. Man. And I don't even

799
00:42:15,719 --> 00:42:17,480
Speaker 1: know if Harden don't stay, but I know if he

800
00:42:17,520 --> 00:42:19,919
Speaker 1: does stay, he got to run that rock through Joe,

801
00:42:20,040 --> 00:42:22,319
Speaker 1: L and B and he ain't that happy about doing

802
00:42:22,360 --> 00:42:25,160
Speaker 1: that as well.

803
00:42:25,200 --> 00:42:27,080
Speaker 7: I agree with you, man, it's about time. You know,

804
00:42:27,120 --> 00:42:29,520
Speaker 7: like you said, he had personal success, which is great,

805
00:42:29,640 --> 00:42:33,279
Speaker 7: you know, played at an awesome level, top level. But

806
00:42:33,360 --> 00:42:35,000
Speaker 7: if he's trying to win that chip, you know, their

807
00:42:35,040 --> 00:42:37,839
Speaker 7: sacrifices to be made. But once again, they also got

808
00:42:37,840 --> 00:42:39,640
Speaker 7: to go through the Nuggets and the Lakers. Don't forget

809
00:42:39,640 --> 00:42:41,280
Speaker 7: about the Lakers.

810
00:42:41,120 --> 00:42:43,800
Speaker 1: Yes, really, and don't forget about the Clippers, man, since

811
00:42:43,840 --> 00:42:45,399
Speaker 1: you don't even want to talk about the real team

812
00:42:45,440 --> 00:42:48,239
Speaker 1: that's in contention to Clippers, let me stop. Oh man,

813
00:42:48,520 --> 00:42:50,680
Speaker 1: I hopefully stay healthy. We got something you got, you

814
00:42:50,719 --> 00:42:51,680
Speaker 1: got something else on your chest?

815
00:42:51,719 --> 00:42:52,200
Speaker 2: What you got?

816
00:42:52,719 --> 00:42:55,440
Speaker 7: Well, just speaking of the Clippers. Next week, I'm just

817
00:42:55,480 --> 00:42:58,040
Speaker 7: gonna be watching from the sideline because I'm taking my

818
00:42:58,080 --> 00:43:02,239
Speaker 7: boys to the Clippers summer camp camp. So I'm being there,

819
00:43:02,320 --> 00:43:04,000
Speaker 7: sitting there trying to scout, trying to get as much

820
00:43:04,000 --> 00:43:06,239
Speaker 7: as I can too, because my thirteen year old only

821
00:43:06,280 --> 00:43:08,879
Speaker 7: a few years away from almost beating me. So I'm

822
00:43:08,880 --> 00:43:11,080
Speaker 7: trying to, you know, pick up what I can. But yeah, clippers,

823
00:43:11,320 --> 00:43:14,279
Speaker 7: show man, Clippers, Clippers, clippers with it too.

824
00:43:14,880 --> 00:43:18,080
Speaker 1: There it is man. I may join you, man like

825
00:43:18,239 --> 00:43:21,040
Speaker 1: that camp, I may be there. And if I'm there,

826
00:43:21,040 --> 00:43:23,480
Speaker 1: I'm gonna run up on your Cobra and uh look

827
00:43:23,520 --> 00:43:25,480
Speaker 1: at your son. I know you're gonna be big and

828
00:43:25,600 --> 00:43:27,319
Speaker 1: just a ball out there. And I'm gonna bring my

829
00:43:27,360 --> 00:43:29,279
Speaker 1: little man too. So I look forward to that. And

830
00:43:29,640 --> 00:43:32,600
Speaker 1: since it's the summer and it's no games really been played, Oh,

831
00:43:32,640 --> 00:43:35,319
Speaker 1: the Clipper's gonna look amazing. It's just when the playoffs coming.

832
00:43:35,360 --> 00:43:38,200
Speaker 1: Then we got problems and injuries and everybody not showing up.

833
00:43:38,280 --> 00:43:41,040
Speaker 1: So much love to you again, Cobra. Let's do it again.

834
00:43:41,120 --> 00:43:46,000
Speaker 1: You could come any time. A man. Appreciate it. Talk, yes,

835
00:43:46,200 --> 00:43:49,160
Speaker 1: have a good one. You too, baby. Now let's bring

836
00:43:49,200 --> 00:43:54,200
Speaker 1: you Mikey P. Because Mikey P got to come at me,

837
00:43:54,280 --> 00:43:56,000
Speaker 1: and I think he got the strap out. I think

838
00:43:56,000 --> 00:43:57,600
Speaker 1: he got the John Moran on him. It's time for

839
00:43:57,640 --> 00:44:00,400
Speaker 1: that rapid fire. But let Mikey P do it. Let's see.

840
00:44:01,640 --> 00:44:04,680
Speaker 3: Oh you know what time it is? Ready, Team Rapid

841
00:44:04,719 --> 00:44:12,239
Speaker 3: five Friday. Yep, let's go, baby man, you go all right?

842
00:44:13,239 --> 00:44:14,479
Speaker 1: There you go? All right?

843
00:44:14,760 --> 00:44:17,719
Speaker 3: Which QB wide receiver duo are you most looking forward

844
00:44:17,760 --> 00:44:18,720
Speaker 3: to watching the season?

845
00:44:20,600 --> 00:44:22,840
Speaker 1: Justin Herbert and anybody else that catches the ball. They

846
00:44:22,840 --> 00:44:25,280
Speaker 1: could be Keenan Allen. I don't Garret Mike with anything

847
00:44:25,320 --> 00:44:28,840
Speaker 1: with Herbie, damnit. Justin Herban is the best course NFL.

848
00:44:28,920 --> 00:44:29,839
Speaker 1: Of course, let's go.

849
00:44:31,480 --> 00:44:32,560
Speaker 3: What's your biggest pet?

850
00:44:32,600 --> 00:44:33,120
Speaker 1: Peeves?

851
00:44:34,719 --> 00:44:36,280
Speaker 2: Biggest liars?

852
00:44:36,400 --> 00:44:38,319
Speaker 1: I hate a liar. And the liar is not just

853
00:44:38,360 --> 00:44:41,880
Speaker 1: someone who told you something that wasn't true. It's someone

854
00:44:41,920 --> 00:44:44,640
Speaker 1: who's not who they are, someone who's not doing what

855
00:44:44,719 --> 00:44:46,600
Speaker 1: they want to do, Like you can lie by just

856
00:44:46,640 --> 00:44:48,960
Speaker 1: being like no, I don't care, you do care?

857
00:44:49,200 --> 00:44:49,720
Speaker 2: You liar?

858
00:44:49,960 --> 00:44:51,320
Speaker 1: Sol liars? I hate liars.

859
00:44:52,280 --> 00:44:54,840
Speaker 3: You're the answer. Coach Prime on Twitter asked would you

860
00:44:54,920 --> 00:44:56,680
Speaker 3: rather have a lot of money or a lot of peace?

861
00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:01,760
Speaker 1: I have both money.

862
00:45:01,880 --> 00:45:03,680
Speaker 2: If you give me a lot of money, I'm piece.

863
00:45:03,760 --> 00:45:10,040
Speaker 1: I'm piece. Piece is a choice. Money is not, So

864
00:45:10,120 --> 00:45:12,520
Speaker 1: I'll take the money. I can make myself be a piece,

865
00:45:12,760 --> 00:45:14,600
Speaker 1: So you ain't gonna sucker with me.

866
00:45:14,880 --> 00:45:18,240
Speaker 2: Give me the money. I could choose peace, all right?

867
00:45:18,320 --> 00:45:21,000
Speaker 3: Will the Nuggets repeat as NBA Champs next year.

868
00:45:21,719 --> 00:45:25,680
Speaker 1: No, simple, no, all right.

869
00:45:25,920 --> 00:45:29,359
Speaker 3: If you could have one superhero power, what would it be?

870
00:45:31,000 --> 00:45:34,320
Speaker 1: Flash? Whatever that is is the fastest man in the world.

871
00:45:34,320 --> 00:45:36,400
Speaker 1: I would love that, But then somebody will say I'm Superman.

872
00:45:36,400 --> 00:45:36,839
Speaker 2: I could fly.

873
00:45:37,600 --> 00:45:39,080
Speaker 1: I don't want to fly because then I'm the only

874
00:45:39,080 --> 00:45:41,200
Speaker 1: one flying, so imna end up being on the ground anyway.

875
00:45:41,320 --> 00:45:43,080
Speaker 1: But I want to be Flash, right, I don't want

876
00:45:43,080 --> 00:45:44,279
Speaker 1: to be the only person in the world can fly.

877
00:45:44,440 --> 00:45:46,600
Speaker 1: Let me be Flash. They run past the lad everywhere.

878
00:45:46,600 --> 00:45:47,840
Speaker 1: I want to go. Oh, I gotta go to the

879
00:45:47,880 --> 00:45:50,000
Speaker 1: Starbucks real quick. I'll be back and just come back

880
00:45:50,040 --> 00:45:51,319
Speaker 1: with a Moco right there.

881
00:45:52,640 --> 00:45:54,280
Speaker 3: Half second forty yard dash?

882
00:45:54,400 --> 00:45:54,799
Speaker 1: All right?

883
00:45:55,320 --> 00:45:57,919
Speaker 3: Tyreek Hill set his goal for the twenty twenty three

884
00:45:57,960 --> 00:45:59,960
Speaker 3: season is to be the first wide out with two

885
00:46:00,000 --> 00:46:02,480
Speaker 3: two thousand receive yards. Can he do it?

886
00:46:03,880 --> 00:46:05,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, he can do it.

887
00:46:05,640 --> 00:46:08,720
Speaker 1: Seventeen games makes it a lot easier than sixteen obviously,

888
00:46:09,080 --> 00:46:11,120
Speaker 1: that is, you know, get a couple of two hundred

889
00:46:11,280 --> 00:46:13,600
Speaker 1: yard games, but that's only like one hundred and what

890
00:46:13,800 --> 00:46:17,640
Speaker 1: thirty yard forty yards in that world average. You can

891
00:46:17,719 --> 00:46:19,480
Speaker 1: do it. I mean he could do it if anybody

892
00:46:19,480 --> 00:46:20,799
Speaker 1: could do it, because you know, you're gonna catch big

893
00:46:20,840 --> 00:46:21,640
Speaker 1: bombs anyway.

894
00:46:21,760 --> 00:46:26,240
Speaker 3: He can do it, Okay, Beyonce or Rihanna.

895
00:46:27,800 --> 00:46:31,560
Speaker 1: Uh oh man, Beyonce. I actually know her, so let

896
00:46:31,560 --> 00:46:34,040
Speaker 1: me be careful, let me stop and look. And it

897
00:46:34,080 --> 00:46:41,800
Speaker 1: looks Beyonce and music. Rihanna so Beyonce, I would say Beyonce. Ultimately,

898
00:46:41,800 --> 00:46:45,520
Speaker 1: if you just ask all things, the queen queen beat.

899
00:46:46,600 --> 00:46:50,880
Speaker 3: All right, her says, NBA execs should take more international

900
00:46:50,960 --> 00:46:54,600
Speaker 3: players because they appreciate the opportunity more, They give their all,

901
00:46:54,680 --> 00:46:57,240
Speaker 3: and they have no off court distractions. Do you agree

902
00:46:57,360 --> 00:46:58,160
Speaker 3: or disagree?

903
00:46:59,560 --> 00:47:01,040
Speaker 2: I know it, he's trying to say.

904
00:47:01,120 --> 00:47:03,440
Speaker 1: I just don't agree how he got there, but I

905
00:47:03,520 --> 00:47:05,520
Speaker 1: like where he landed. Yeah, but there are a lot

906
00:47:05,600 --> 00:47:08,400
Speaker 1: of guys American born that appreciated man. Don't let a

907
00:47:08,440 --> 00:47:11,880
Speaker 1: few knuckleheads, you know, a few bad apples spoil the bunch.

908
00:47:12,000 --> 00:47:16,239
Speaker 1: Most guys appreciate it. Grant Hell, Grant Hill appreciated guy that. Like.

909
00:47:16,320 --> 00:47:18,919
Speaker 2: I mean, there's amazing dudes that played the game.

910
00:47:19,680 --> 00:47:22,640
Speaker 1: But I think it's a greater skill set that's being

911
00:47:22,680 --> 00:47:25,279
Speaker 1: taught over seas than here. I think we ride our

912
00:47:25,320 --> 00:47:29,160
Speaker 1: athleticism so far that we don't necessarily supplement it with

913
00:47:29,239 --> 00:47:32,640
Speaker 1: the same amount of skills that they're doing over seas.

914
00:47:32,760 --> 00:47:35,840
Speaker 1: They train them to be positionless. Over here, we just

915
00:47:35,880 --> 00:47:38,280
Speaker 1: training athletes to kind of still stay in their box.

916
00:47:38,680 --> 00:47:41,440
Speaker 1: I get where he's going interesting.

917
00:47:41,520 --> 00:47:44,280
Speaker 3: Do you have any pets at him?

918
00:47:44,480 --> 00:47:46,799
Speaker 1: Yeah? You see my daughter down the south, all these kids.

919
00:47:46,880 --> 00:47:47,359
Speaker 1: Let me stop.

920
00:47:48,320 --> 00:47:51,239
Speaker 2: I got one fish. We bought twelve, We down to one.

921
00:47:51,480 --> 00:47:54,240
Speaker 1: When that one goes, we're gonna reload another twelve, another

922
00:47:54,320 --> 00:47:57,200
Speaker 1: dozen fish, and then let it just keep going. No dogs,

923
00:47:57,239 --> 00:48:00,440
Speaker 1: no cats, nothing anymore. Rest in peace to Quincy my

924
00:48:00,600 --> 00:48:03,279
Speaker 1: last cat, a little black man.

Speaker 1: and conscious all day, morning and night, I get more

936
00:48:44,040 --> 00:48:48,120
Speaker 1: work done in the morning and at night. I'm happier

937
00:48:48,160 --> 00:48:50,839
Speaker 1: at night. If I had to say, so.

938
00:48:50,800 --> 00:48:52,680
Speaker 3: What time you get up in the morning? I know

939
00:48:52,719 --> 00:48:53,200
Speaker 3: it's crazy.

940
00:48:54,280 --> 00:48:56,680
Speaker 1: Wake up at four point thirty. My eyes are like,

941
00:48:56,840 --> 00:48:59,520
Speaker 1: my body's like, all right, what they do? And then

942
00:48:59,520 --> 00:49:01,720
Speaker 1: I go to bed usually around eleven something.

943
00:49:02,160 --> 00:49:05,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, okay. If you could have gone pro and

944
00:49:06,000 --> 00:49:07,640
Speaker 3: another sport, what would it have been?

945
00:49:08,320 --> 00:49:11,640
Speaker 1: Basketball? By far, Basketball is a way better sport than football.

946
00:49:11,640 --> 00:49:14,920
Speaker 1: Football hurts every single day, every single way. Basketball you

947
00:49:14,960 --> 00:49:16,480
Speaker 1: get to sit there and all the girls looking at

948
00:49:16,480 --> 00:49:18,919
Speaker 1: you making free throws. Nobody could touch you. It's called

949
00:49:18,920 --> 00:49:22,400
Speaker 1: a foul. Football somebody touch you, they say, and and

950
00:49:22,440 --> 00:49:25,920
Speaker 1: then basketball they say stop. So yeah, basketball, by.

951
00:49:25,800 --> 00:49:30,400
Speaker 3: Far guarantee money too, all right. A new study found

952
00:49:30,480 --> 00:49:34,200
Speaker 3: eighty seven percent of people have a comfort show. What's

953
00:49:34,239 --> 00:49:35,120
Speaker 3: your comfort show?

954
00:49:36,760 --> 00:49:39,200
Speaker 1: Oh something? I watched that show. It made me feel good.

955
00:49:40,080 --> 00:49:42,719
Speaker 1: Oh I got a daughter over here, hold on, got

956
00:49:42,719 --> 00:49:45,680
Speaker 1: another kid? Man, We're gonna edit the hell out of

957
00:49:45,680 --> 00:49:48,040
Speaker 1: this today. Let me stop, all right, look at that. Yeah,

958
00:49:48,320 --> 00:49:51,160
Speaker 1: this will happened when a summer school better hurever start.

959
00:49:51,239 --> 00:49:55,520
Speaker 1: It's getting real over here. Let me say, uh, I

960
00:49:55,520 --> 00:49:58,160
Speaker 1: don't have a comfort show. I really don't, because TV's

961
00:49:58,239 --> 00:50:03,360
Speaker 1: not like that anymore. Growing up, though, it was different strokes.

962
00:50:03,960 --> 00:50:08,400
Speaker 1: Growing up, it was that's incredible. Growing up it was

963
00:50:08,480 --> 00:50:10,840
Speaker 1: Dukes of Hazard. Yeah, I know they were racist. I

964
00:50:10,840 --> 00:50:12,799
Speaker 1: mean I guess that's why everyone told me that. I

965
00:50:12,840 --> 00:50:15,160
Speaker 1: was like, damn, so what. I liked them racist. I

966
00:50:15,200 --> 00:50:18,680
Speaker 1: love that show. That's what it was for me. Now

967
00:50:18,760 --> 00:50:21,439
Speaker 1: it's just whatever comes out that I'm watching at that time.

968
00:50:21,520 --> 00:50:23,920
Speaker 2: I love BMF, I love all the Powers.

969
00:50:24,800 --> 00:50:27,840
Speaker 1: I love Snowfall was the best, but it wasn't a

970
00:50:27,880 --> 00:50:31,000
Speaker 1: comfort show. Cat's getting killed in it, but I loved it.

971
00:50:31,600 --> 00:50:34,279
Speaker 3: Sekwon Barkley is threatening to sit out the season if

972
00:50:34,320 --> 00:50:36,880
Speaker 3: he doesn't get the bag. Is he bluffing?

973
00:50:38,239 --> 00:50:41,759
Speaker 1: No, he's not bluffing. That dude almost lost his leg.

974
00:50:41,880 --> 00:50:44,080
Speaker 1: It felt like the way he got hurt, and he

975
00:50:44,120 --> 00:50:46,320
Speaker 1: plays a position that he knows he only got dismount

976
00:50:46,400 --> 00:50:48,879
Speaker 1: of time to get it. So if he can't get

977
00:50:48,920 --> 00:50:51,560
Speaker 1: the bag the way he wants the bag, I think

978
00:50:51,600 --> 00:50:54,680
Speaker 1: he's gonna go through all options and exhaust them all

979
00:50:55,080 --> 00:50:58,879
Speaker 1: to make sure he keeps himself healthy and fresh and

980
00:50:58,880 --> 00:51:02,160
Speaker 1: not waste a year on the number he's not comfortable with.

981
00:51:02,400 --> 00:51:04,800
Speaker 1: I wouldn't do it. I don't think it's gonna work,

982
00:51:05,080 --> 00:51:07,880
Speaker 1: but I think that him probably will go to that

983
00:51:07,960 --> 00:51:10,200
Speaker 1: place just to make sure he doesn't waste a year

984
00:51:10,520 --> 00:51:11,120
Speaker 1: in his prime.

985
00:51:12,480 --> 00:51:14,719
Speaker 3: All right, scale of one to ten? How good are

986
00:51:14,760 --> 00:51:17,160
Speaker 3: you at keep his secrets?

987
00:51:18,360 --> 00:51:19,840
Speaker 1: Secrets, real secrets?

988
00:51:19,880 --> 00:51:20,080
Speaker 2: Ten?

989
00:51:20,960 --> 00:51:23,960
Speaker 1: Stuff that is making you uncomfortable? But I don't care,

990
00:51:24,040 --> 00:51:24,960
Speaker 1: and you shouldn't care.

991
00:51:25,400 --> 00:51:25,680
Speaker 2: Zero.

992
00:51:25,920 --> 00:51:28,760
Speaker 1: Like, look, if you tell me, I protect the guilty.

993
00:51:29,080 --> 00:51:32,160
Speaker 1: But if it's just like dog, I don't know. I

994
00:51:32,200 --> 00:51:34,120
Speaker 1: don't know. I'm like, I'm gonna tell then, Like I

995
00:51:34,200 --> 00:51:36,000
Speaker 1: talk a lot about guys I work with, and they

996
00:51:36,400 --> 00:51:39,280
Speaker 1: laugh because they like, Dog, how'd you say what we

997
00:51:39,280 --> 00:51:41,319
Speaker 1: weren't supposed to say? But you said it, and I'm

998
00:51:41,320 --> 00:51:43,040
Speaker 1: not mad at you. I was like, there's a way,

999
00:51:44,040 --> 00:51:45,600
Speaker 1: so I protect the guilty? Though?

1000
00:51:47,080 --> 00:51:50,439
Speaker 3: All Right, is Russ cooked? Or is Sean Payton gonna

1001
00:51:50,480 --> 00:51:51,640
Speaker 3: coach him back to form?

1002
00:51:52,160 --> 00:51:56,759
Speaker 1: Okay? How many questions are we gonna ever do this again? Yeah?

1003
00:51:57,000 --> 00:52:00,239
Speaker 1: Keep it to ten at least, God dang shot. No,

1004
00:52:00,400 --> 00:52:04,080
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson's in trouble, man. He's gonna get coached up.

1005
00:52:04,080 --> 00:52:05,520
Speaker 1: He gonna look better than last year, but he's not

1006
00:52:05,520 --> 00:52:07,480
Speaker 1: gonna look as good as he used to look. In Seattle.

1007
00:52:08,800 --> 00:52:10,080
Speaker 2: He can't lead them dudes.

1008
00:52:10,480 --> 00:52:12,239
Speaker 1: And the only thing that's gonna make him lead him

1009
00:52:12,360 --> 00:52:14,960
Speaker 1: is like he balls out of control in that division.

1010
00:52:15,239 --> 00:52:17,760
Speaker 1: I don't see out of control coming from Russell Wilson.

1011
00:52:17,760 --> 00:52:20,200
Speaker 1: I see a better version. But it's gonna be tough.

1012
00:52:21,640 --> 00:52:23,640
Speaker 3: All right, we'll make this the last one. If we

1013
00:52:23,640 --> 00:52:27,040
Speaker 3: were really hungry and had no food, could you eat

1014
00:52:27,040 --> 00:52:27,520
Speaker 3: a bug?

1015
00:52:28,520 --> 00:52:29,280
Speaker 2: No?

1016
00:52:29,280 --> 00:52:31,319
Speaker 1: No, that's the bug is looking at me like you're

1017
00:52:31,320 --> 00:52:32,920
Speaker 1: about to die because you ain't gonna eat me.

1018
00:52:32,920 --> 00:52:35,480
Speaker 2: I'm like, yep, I'm dying before you bugs. You alive.

1019
00:52:35,560 --> 00:52:38,680
Speaker 1: I ain't eat no bugs. Yeah, I am out of there. Man,

1024
00:52:52,480 --> 00:52:54,719
Speaker 1: Always got a joke. I used to hit cats and

1025
00:52:54,760 --> 00:52:56,680
Speaker 1: you know, lay somebody on the ground and I'm sitting

00:52:56,680 --> 00:52:59,920
Speaker 1: there like, man, did that hurt? He's like, no, you know, fool.

1027
00:53:00,120 --> 00:53:02,040
Speaker 1: I was like, I'm gonna lay here a little long.

1028
00:53:02,080 --> 00:53:05,520
Speaker 1: I'm just a jokester at hard all right, y'all. Y'all

1029
00:53:05,560 --> 00:53:10,480
Speaker 1: know how we finish every show with a wily ism. Yeah,

1030
00:53:10,800 --> 00:53:14,320
Speaker 1: someday is not a day of the week. Ooh, I

1031
00:53:14,360 --> 00:53:16,480
Speaker 1: remember when I heard that one someday it's not a

1032
00:53:16,560 --> 00:53:18,200
Speaker 1: day of the week. How many times y'all want to

1033
00:53:18,239 --> 00:53:19,759
Speaker 1: say that, Oh man, I'm gonna go get to that

1034
00:53:19,800 --> 00:53:21,000
Speaker 1: im and go do that. I'm gona do that. We

1035
00:53:21,000 --> 00:53:22,359
Speaker 1: We're gonna do it some day. I'm gonna be at

1036
00:53:22,920 --> 00:53:26,239
Speaker 1: wuld you say say Sunday is a day of the week,

1037
00:53:26,320 --> 00:53:29,480
Speaker 1: like we can start like in a Bible, Sundays starts

1038
00:53:29,480 --> 00:53:33,720
Speaker 1: the week, right, but someday that day doesn't exist. Coaches

1039
00:53:33,840 --> 00:53:36,200
Speaker 1: used to always say that, you know when you're gonna

1040
00:53:36,239 --> 00:53:38,120
Speaker 1: get to something, He's like, when you gonna get to it?

1041
00:53:38,200 --> 00:53:43,040
Speaker 1: Someday I'm gonna get no sir, remember that because obviously

1042
00:53:43,120 --> 00:53:45,600
Speaker 1: we are our worst enemy. Like, and I think what

1043
00:53:45,760 --> 00:53:50,040
Speaker 1: human beings have come to realize is you can blame everything,

1044
00:53:50,920 --> 00:53:53,920
Speaker 1: but you ultimately have to put the responsibility on yourself

1045
00:53:54,280 --> 00:53:57,160
Speaker 1: to be greater than those things you blame. Right, So

1046
00:53:57,680 --> 00:54:01,480
Speaker 1: in a world where it's tough to do any of success,

1047
00:54:01,600 --> 00:54:04,000
Speaker 1: like if you're trying to win in this world, whoa

1048
00:54:04,760 --> 00:54:07,840
Speaker 1: not only are you fighting everyone else who wants that

1049
00:54:07,960 --> 00:54:11,640
Speaker 1: same thing, but you gotta fight yourself because human beings

1050
00:54:11,800 --> 00:54:16,799
Speaker 1: naturally are lazy. Human beings naturally want the most out

1051
00:54:16,800 --> 00:54:18,240
Speaker 1: of life by doing the least.

1052
00:54:18,640 --> 00:54:19,600
Speaker 2: We are wired.

1053
00:54:20,040 --> 00:54:24,520
Speaker 1: That's why you have to train yourself, force yourself to

1054
00:54:24,640 --> 00:54:28,680
Speaker 1: work hard. You have to condition your mind, You have

1055
00:54:28,760 --> 00:54:33,759
Speaker 1: to condition your habits. If not left to your own devices,

1056
00:54:34,040 --> 00:54:36,279
Speaker 1: you ain't gonna do much in this world. Don't believe me.

1057
00:54:36,640 --> 00:54:38,880
Speaker 1: Look at my kids that just keep running up in here,

1058
00:54:39,080 --> 00:54:43,200
Speaker 1: right if I don't keep them in structure, if I

1059
00:54:43,200 --> 00:54:46,760
Speaker 1: don't keep them disciplined, if I don't continue to stay

1060
00:54:46,800 --> 00:54:50,200
Speaker 1: mindful with them in terms of No, you need to listen. No,

1061
00:54:50,440 --> 00:54:52,600
Speaker 1: you need to put that down. No, you need to

1062
00:54:52,640 --> 00:54:55,839
Speaker 1: work hard. They just gonna be aimless. They just gonna

1063
00:54:55,840 --> 00:54:59,879
Speaker 1: do whatever they want to do. Someday they'll get to something. Right,

1064
00:55:00,120 --> 00:55:02,640
Speaker 1: So you gotta make sure you know that we are

1065
00:55:02,840 --> 00:55:06,520
Speaker 1: rigged to not do that much, and those who do

1066
00:55:06,560 --> 00:55:11,720
Speaker 1: accomplish all much respect and salute because they have also

1067
00:55:11,800 --> 00:55:14,879
