Speaker 3: come with like getting miles of horse riding on them.
Speaker 2: Oh man, you know from the country.
Speaker 4: I know you.
Speaker 3: I guess I gotta throw this up until like we
Speaker 3: beat y'all. It's for like twelve months. It is.
Speaker 1: Welcome to the secrit. I'm better at dressing in the fall.
Speaker 1: I feel like fall suits me better than like summer
Speaker 1: cloth when I'm one of those short shorts and people
Speaker 1: are like janks, put your pants on.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know what.
Speaker 3: I'm more of a fall dress guide and moved to
Speaker 3: the East Coast, and yeah, I do like it. Like
Speaker 3: growing up in the South, you don't really have any
Speaker 3: options is just shorts, shorts options.
Speaker 2: I like to dress like a grown man. I look
Speaker 2: like I'm in a catalog. You know, you remember East Bay?
Speaker 2: I do remember East Bak was the best? Was there
Speaker 2: before they time? Like I think they were. They didn't,
Speaker 2: they just didn't take advantage.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they was before they time. They were Amazon before Amazon.
Speaker 3: That's a good point. I just like spoosmag dot com was.
Speaker 3: Actually it was before US bought it.
Speaker 1: We saw some grown men this past Sunday on the
Speaker 1: field in charm City. We did commanders and ravens, and
Speaker 1: let's put it out there. There are no moral victories
Speaker 1: and we don't or we don't do that. But you
Speaker 1: can't take a step back and say where are we
Speaker 1: as we pushed towards the future and this was a
Speaker 1: good performance.
Speaker 3: Even though it's okay to be disappointed to different we're
Speaker 3: looking at a different windows they're on the second floor
Speaker 3: of the house looking out the window because they have
Speaker 3: a super Bowl window. We are in a let's see
Speaker 3: who we are and if we make the playoffs, we
Speaker 3: make the playoffs, we're starting in ground zero. There they
Speaker 3: are in a super Bowl window. So it was a
Speaker 3: great test to say where are we. Generally we was
Speaker 3: a touchdown deficit behind a Super Bowl contender. Yeah, that
Speaker 3: tells me everything I need to know. No more victories.
Speaker 3: I'm still saying that smile is upside down. I cried
Speaker 3: all weak it, but at the end of the day,
Speaker 3: we understand that we can compete with anybody in this league.
Speaker 2: And it showed last week.
Speaker 1: I think that was the key is when they were
Speaker 1: down a couple of scores, you thought, all right, how
Speaker 1: are we gonna respond? Yeah, is this a team that's
Speaker 1: going to fold and say we're not ready for this moment?
Speaker 1: Or are we going to keep attacking? We want to
Speaker 1: keep playing, and they made it a game. The only
Speaker 1: thing we fold one hundred dollar bills. We didn't care
Speaker 1: about being down. And that's what happens when you got
Speaker 1: a quarterback.
Speaker 3: Jinks, When you got a quarterback, you're never out of
Speaker 3: a game. Just what it showed, and we went blow
Speaker 3: for blow with a heavyweight. It's our lead versus forming.
Speaker 3: It's gonna both teams got beat up, and that's what
Speaker 3: you want to see. I want to see these young
Speaker 3: guys fight back. They fought back. I want to see
Speaker 3: these young guys take them for four quarters. They took
Speaker 3: them for four quarters. So at the end of the day, disappointed,
Speaker 3: no understanding where we're at.
Speaker 1: Yes, I am, and I think you can see that
Speaker 1: from people around. The lead objective observer saying this Commanders
Speaker 1: team is going to be a problem. Even Rokwan Smith
Speaker 1: after the game was asked by Jadon Daniels and said,
Speaker 1: they got themselves a dude.
Speaker 2: Of course, a dude. Once you have a dude, you
Speaker 2: got realized.
Speaker 3: I keep telling people that eight billion people on this planet,
Speaker 3: we ain't found thirty two quarterbacks in the same year.
Speaker 2: Ever, that's how hard it is to find that guy.
Speaker 3: Even though Doug won us a Super Bowl, his career
Speaker 3: here wasn't the longest.
Speaker 2: Mark Rippin wasn't the longest.
Speaker 3: So even though they brought a Super Bowl trophy to
Speaker 3: the franchise, could they really be what you call our
Speaker 3: franchise quarterback? For fifteen years very hard to find. I
Speaker 3: think we found that.
Speaker 1: With Jane Daniels talk tweek her in the pod. We
Speaker 1: talked every week on the pregame show. And you nailed
Speaker 1: it again because I asked you every week, who's gonna
Speaker 1: step up? And you said, you know what, It's not
Speaker 1: gonna be a guy stepping up. It's gonna be a
Speaker 1: guy we can count on Terry McLaurin.
Speaker 2: And he did. He had a great game against the
Speaker 2: very good Ravens defense. Yes he did.
Speaker 3: And that last touchdown catch, that last touchdown passed.
Speaker 2: Was a thing of beauty.
Speaker 3: And the one thing I know about Terry is he
Speaker 3: wins at the point of attack, like if he had
Speaker 3: to high point of ball, a coutext like if you're
Speaker 3: trying to stop him catching the ball, that's a very
Speaker 3: very hard thing to do. And I just felt like
Speaker 3: this was a game where the youngsters might make some plays,
Speaker 3: but this is a veteran game. This is when the
Speaker 3: old men show their head. And that's what happened with
Speaker 3: Terry mclawin. I thought he would show this is what
Speaker 3: I can do. I want the ball more. I'm the
Speaker 3: cookie monster. Feed me, feed me more.
Speaker 1: And he has said now, And it's a delicate subject
Speaker 1: to broach because you don't want to disrespect broach.
Speaker 2: Yes, oh that's civilized, my friend.
Speaker 1: You never want to take a shot at anyone you've
Speaker 1: played with. But I think Terry has alluded to the
Speaker 1: fact that it's nice to know.
Speaker 2: That now I have a guy I can rely on.
Speaker 1: Look at Santana for most of his script, no shot
Speaker 1: against anyone, but he had a I mean, it was
Speaker 1: just a rotation quarterbacks, and that's hard as a receiver.
Speaker 3: That's why I never like, I played receiver in high school,
Speaker 3: I play receiver in college. And then I sat down
Speaker 3: and thought to myself, which one can I control my
Speaker 3: own destiny?
Speaker 2: And it's dB like, because how do you.
Speaker 3: Know I'm a great receiver If I don't have a
Speaker 3: great quarterback, Like, you can never know who I am.
Speaker 2: And that's a hard thing for receivers.
Speaker 3: And Terry has just literally just taken it how it comes,
Speaker 3: and that's with him. That's why I think Terry and
Speaker 3: Santana I cut from the same cloth, meaning they're not divas.
Speaker 3: Most receivers are divas. They like to rock the runway
Speaker 3: and never trip a fall like not these two dudes.
Speaker 3: They get it out the mud. They understand, they understand
Speaker 3: the situation, and they just gonna take it how it comes.
Speaker 3: They never say nothing, they never nag. They just go
Speaker 3: out there and play football. And that's what you love
Speaker 3: if you if you're a Commanders fan.
Speaker 1: And I appreciate Terry showing respect and just playing the game,
Speaker 1: keeping his head down the entire time, because most receivers
Speaker 1: aren't like that.
Speaker 2: They miked up Stefan Diggs a.
Speaker 1: Few years ago when he was playing in Minnesota, and
Speaker 1: that's when he was playing with Kirk Cousins, and I
Speaker 1: can't repeat exactly how it was, but fan, and you find, oh,
Speaker 1: he's combustible. My god, he's he was opening the end
Speaker 1: zone and Kirk missed him, and you heard Danny Kirk like,
Speaker 1: get me the ball.
Speaker 2: I'm right here, listen. I have dealt with I have checked.
Speaker 3: So many dev receivers my whole life, the Ts of
Speaker 3: the world, the Randys of the world. And boy, it's
Speaker 3: so easy to get under their skin because I would
Speaker 3: just simply tell them you got Nate Peterman throwing you
Speaker 3: the ball. I don't care if you are Ferrari, you
Speaker 3: don't have a chance today. Today, you belong to me.
Speaker 3: Come on, your last name is smoothed, your name is
Speaker 3: terreal smooth today. Guess what you're caught of my family
Speaker 3: nothing you can do like and they do feel helpless
Speaker 3: in those situations where I just beat you on the
Speaker 3: route and I'd be like, so did he throw you
Speaker 3: the ball? He can't throw the ball, So don't you
Speaker 3: worry about it today.
Speaker 2: Put your hands in your pockets, and you enjoy the
Speaker 2: game like the rest of them.
Speaker 1: I like the you went fifth grade d so so
Speaker 1: like so like that's what it is like, because Racia
Speaker 1: was gonna let you know every time to get an
Speaker 1: inch on you out, They're gonna.
Speaker 2: Let you know, like, oh, they should have throw me
Speaker 2: the ball right there.
Speaker 3: And I'd be like, yeah, whatever, it doesn't count against me,
Speaker 3: Like nobody's gonna hold it against me, especially with corner.
Speaker 3: Be in a position that it is. You love us
Speaker 3: one day, you hate us the next. We're good one day,
Speaker 3: we're the worst guy in the world the next day.
Speaker 3: So that's why I tell people, if you play defensive back,
Speaker 3: just understanding in the back of your mind love you'll
Speaker 3: never be That's probably why I'm bad in relationships.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 1: Well, let's talk about great corner play and Mike cinra Still,
Speaker 1: who was very good.
Speaker 2: He's one of those guys.
Speaker 1: I love when you can and take a step back
Speaker 1: and look at the totality of a season and watch
Speaker 1: the progression of someone first game for Central Still getting
Speaker 1: be all over the place, and now you can see
Speaker 1: him getting more confident, stepping in front of receivers, making place.
Speaker 2: He's gonna be really good.
Speaker 3: No, he's gonna be very good, and he's problem solving,
Speaker 3: like that's what you have to do in the league.
Speaker 3: You find out how fast is the game, You find
Speaker 3: out who do I met you?
Speaker 1: Up?
Speaker 2: Will against?
Speaker 3: They brought him in to be a star and knuckler,
Speaker 3: and now he's outside. They say, hey, I got to
Speaker 3: put more on your plate.
Speaker 2: I need more from him.
Speaker 3: And when the coaches demand more from you, some guys
Speaker 3: stand up. Some guys say, I can't. He's not I
Speaker 3: can't gut you. You knew when he played for Harvard
Speaker 3: Michigan this guy was hard nosed.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna get down in the mud.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna get dirty congratulation on your first interception because
Speaker 3: it's a dB. Once you start to get in once
Speaker 3: you get that first interception, they started to come in bunches.
Speaker 2: And this the way it goes. Because once I touched
Speaker 2: the ball the first time.
Speaker 3: Luckily for me, I got an interception in my second
Speaker 3: quarter of my first game. So I was like, all right,
Speaker 3: I belong because until you get that interception, you don't
Speaker 3: feel like you belong. So I think now he understands, Okay,
Speaker 3: I got my hand on the ball. I need to
Speaker 3: get my hand on more. I need to give my
Speaker 3: quarterbacks short fields. I need to give my offense short fields.
Speaker 3: I need to start to impact the game differently than
Speaker 3: the rest of the guys around me.
Speaker 2: Let me ask you a questions. Ask me you hear this.
Speaker 1: You see a lot some guys who are always around
Speaker 1: the football, right, they just have a knack. So I
Speaker 1: feel like you were kind of one of those guys
Speaker 1: who you're always around it. Even if he weren't touching,
Speaker 1: you were right there. Does that come from knowing the playbook?
Speaker 1: Does it come from being prepared? Is there an innate
Speaker 1: sense where you just kind of have a feel.
Speaker 3: I don't know, man, Like I'm gonna tell you who
Speaker 3: I thought like it's some dbs that the ball finds them.
Speaker 3: They don't find the ball the Hall the Angela. Oh
Speaker 3: my god, yes, I be like the Angelo. You got
Speaker 3: a rabbit foot the Angelotte get me standing on the field.
Speaker 3: The dude to fall in front of him and the
Speaker 3: ball and pop out, and I'd be like, what is
Speaker 3: going on? Drake Blin was like that, Okay, run day Barber,
Speaker 3: which like that the ball finds them. I think it's
Speaker 3: a mixture of a film study. I think it's a
Speaker 3: mixture of Johney on the spot and a rabbit's foot
Speaker 3: the size of the moon.
Speaker 2: Like it takes a little look like the ball.
Speaker 3: You ever heard the ball is bouncing your way Like
Speaker 3: some guys the ball bounced that way they whole career.
Speaker 2: Like puck luck and hockey.
Speaker 3: Yeah it is. Yeah, I still got it. Rebounced the
Speaker 3: ball and literally all I got to do is dunkey.
Speaker 3: So it's a layup for some guys and some guys
Speaker 3: just had the intuition.
Speaker 2: I want to say.
Speaker 3: That the feel force that come from somewhere that says,
Speaker 3: you know what, I'm going to always be around the ball.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna impact it.
Speaker 3: And it has a lot to do with just one
Speaker 3: simple thing running to the ball, even when the action
Speaker 3: ain't by you near you running.
Speaker 2: To the ball.
Speaker 3: The ball is life, like coach Witt says, and life
Speaker 3: is what I.
Speaker 2: Need this linebacking core.
Speaker 1: Yes, I think it's important to be positive, not just
Speaker 1: because this was a very good performance, even though, like
Speaker 1: you said, we're just worting about the loss, but because
Speaker 1: we are seeing that group come together.
Speaker 2: Dante Fowler fifth multi sac game of his career, gratulations
Speaker 2: my friend.
Speaker 1: Yes, Sir, Bobby Wagner does what Bobby Wagner does, twelve tackles. Yeah,
Speaker 1: with the team like he always does. It's gonna be
Speaker 1: a yellow jacket for a reason. When you put Wagnert,
Speaker 1: Louvu and Foul together, this flyebacking core can match up
Speaker 1: against any and NFL.
Speaker 3: I don't think linebacking corps at the difference in between
Speaker 3: championships and not. When you talk about defense, everybody talks
Speaker 3: about the front, everybody talks about the back end. I
Speaker 3: think it's all about the linebacker because they are enforcers.
Speaker 3: They are the identity of a defense. They are the
Speaker 3: physicality of a defense. I always used to I used
Speaker 3: to talk trash to my d line because I'd be
Speaker 3: like y'all dudes are south and they d liman. Yeah,
Speaker 3: because I always tell them I have to hit Jerome
Speaker 3: Betty's at one hundred miles power. You hit Jerome Betty's
Speaker 3: at three miles pound. I am tougher than you. I
Speaker 3: have to hear tight ends that six two hundred and
Speaker 3: sixty pounds while they are full of scribe, and you
Speaker 3: hit them while they just cranking the cup. So I
Speaker 3: think the linebackers are the enforcers in their way because
Speaker 3: think about.
Speaker 2: It, let's talk.
Speaker 3: The last three years, the forty nine Ers have been
Speaker 3: known as one of the best defenses led by Fred Warning.
Speaker 2: The Ravens have been known as some of.
Speaker 3: The best defensive teams led by linebackers.
Speaker 2: Right Pittsburg led by linebackers.
Speaker 3: So the linebackers, to me legitly, your identity, your physicality,
Speaker 3: they are the enforcers and they are the ones that
Speaker 3: later foundation of what we are. They get to hit
Speaker 3: running backs, wide receivers, everybody.
Speaker 2: You have to be multi fasted to play the linebacker position.
Speaker 3: So I was luckily that I got to play with
Speaker 3: London Fletcher, OHD l Capetain because one thing about London
Speaker 3: is I knew for a fact if I'm he's coming
Speaker 3: at one point, like if the wide receiver comes in
Speaker 3: and run the dig route, London is coming. I know
Speaker 3: he's coming somewhere, gonna meet me there for the tackle.
Speaker 3: When you know you have it as a defense, it
Speaker 3: helps you as a defensive back play a little bit
Speaker 3: more relaxed. And oh, by the way, my mistakes won't
Speaker 3: kill us because I got reinforcement coming.
Speaker 1: I love meeting guys like that, especially defensively, who are
Speaker 1: such nice guys.
Speaker 2: You're one of those guys, learning one of those guys.
Speaker 1: But then when they talk about football, you can kind
Speaker 1: of see a ship it switching.
Speaker 2: Yes, like I remember its heart in London one time.
Speaker 1: It was as nice as a guest, you know, the
Speaker 1: Man of the Year nominee, And all of a sudden,
Speaker 1: I see his eyes go.
Speaker 3: Like yeah, I've been in a huddle with him, which crazy.
Speaker 3: He turns into the terminator and it's like, okay, while
Speaker 3: you got snotting your nose calling the play and he's like, yeah,
Speaker 3: let's go do this right, let's go do.
Speaker 2: This, and let's go do this now.
Speaker 3: So, like I said, these guys they enjoy inflicting pain. Yeah,
Speaker 3: and it takes a special individual to enjoy inflicting pain
Speaker 3: upon other people. And that's why I say the linebackers
Speaker 3: to me out of heart and soul of every great defense.
Speaker 2: And that's why I.
Speaker 3: Love coach Ken Norton because we watch you walk around
Speaker 3: the building. He'd be like, I don't know if I
Speaker 3: need to speak to him today. He was no joke
Speaker 3: when he plays. Understand Ken Norton Jr. Is I understand
Speaker 3: who his daddy was that whole? Yes?
Speaker 2: Yes, I want to be annoyed. Was his dad like
Speaker 2: a chip box? Yes?
Speaker 3: Yeah, So inflicting pain, it's what he's used to. Like,
Speaker 3: that's why I respect boxes in a way. That is
Speaker 3: a solo sport like I always talk about sports like
Speaker 3: football is such a team sport. It's a dream sport.
Speaker 3: But when you like one on one like golf, Dennis boxing,
Speaker 3: it's you, it's just you.
Speaker 2: That's who you got to depend on today.
Speaker 1: You.
Speaker 2: So that's that's a different thing.
Speaker 1: When it comes to motivation, it's just you. You have a
Speaker 1: teammate to pick you up. You don't give you any
Speaker 1: positive words, it's just.
Speaker 2: Here's a bad day today. I can't lean on him.
Speaker 3: I have nobody to lean on, So it's it's it's
Speaker 3: like being the only child, which I.
Speaker 1: Am on the defensive line, John Allen now for the season. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's a huge loss. The good thing for this team
Speaker 1: is that there is depth there. Johnny Newton got a
Speaker 1: lot of snacks, sry maths, so we'd obviously love to
Speaker 1: have big John in the lineup, but this is this
Speaker 1: there's at least the depth in place here to make.
Speaker 3: I find say, like, if you was gonna lose a guy,
Speaker 3: you would want it to be at the DEFENSI attack
Speaker 3: as whereas the gluttoness of like talent, that's what you
Speaker 3: have guy that you've been trying to get in the
Speaker 3: rotation that you can't because it was just too many
Speaker 3: of those guys. So yeah, I think John Ada gonna
Speaker 3: be a big loss. I think it puts a little
Speaker 3: bit more on the run pain, I mean on pains
Speaker 3: play for him to be the lead dog in there
Speaker 3: and start to make some plays. But anytime a god
Speaker 3: comes up injured, it's an opportunity for somebody else to
Speaker 3: just sit in stone that I can do this job.
Speaker 3: I think Newton is a guy that says, hey put
Speaker 3: me in coach, I can handle it. For Darien matthis
Speaker 3: put me in, give me a chance to show people
Speaker 3: who I am.
Speaker 2: Let me become a household name. Like, that's the thing.
Speaker 3: I remember talking to Dayren Green when I first got here,
Speaker 3: has a rookie in My first conversation.
Speaker 2: With him was how do you play twenty years of football? Remarkable?
Speaker 3: And he was like, what is my backups name? And
Speaker 3: I was like, oh, I don't know, because he was like,
Speaker 3: I never let him play. I never let him play.
Speaker 2: I believe it.
Speaker 3: And that's that's the thing, man like durability and understanding
Speaker 3: that I just have to be available. That the visibility
Speaker 3: in football is availability. Like, are you going to be
Speaker 3: there at all times this weekend?
Speaker 2: Yeah? Commander's host of the Panthers. Yeah, the Panthers stick.
Speaker 2: They are bad football, yeah they are.
Speaker 1: But you can never overlook anyone in the pro football team.
Speaker 1: They have professional grown men who are making money.
Speaker 2: And just throwing the ball. Yes, although did you see
Speaker 2: I was telling this square.
Speaker 1: I don't know if you saw the telecast last week
Speaker 1: they cut away to Bryce Young on the sideline and
Speaker 1: the play by play guy was just making a point
Speaker 1: that look the red rifle, say what you want. He's
Speaker 1: had a nice long career in the NFL, and the
Speaker 1: announcer goes to play by play guy goes, you know,
Speaker 1: Bryce Shung just needs to learn from a real professional.
Speaker 2: Oh that is picked off.
Speaker 1: There's way And I was like, oh man, just the
Speaker 1: wrong mobile for that.
Speaker 2: You can never control that.
Speaker 1: But how do you prevent this is a game you
Speaker 1: absolutely should win. There's a letdown after that Ravens loss.
Speaker 1: How do you make sure you get right back on
Speaker 1: track because you don't go into this game saying we
Speaker 1: should win.
Speaker 3: You going in there saying we want to win every week,
Speaker 3: like we're not gonna take our opponent for granted, and
Speaker 3: we're not gonna put our opponent in on pedestal. That's
Speaker 3: why last week they was extra coaches, it's just a
Speaker 3: measuring stick.
Speaker 2: Noice ain't no measuring stick. We ain't measured bite the Ravens.
Speaker 2: We belong. We belong. So when you feel that way,
Speaker 2: none else matters.
Speaker 3: So when you come and you play the Panthers, you
Speaker 3: understand in our house, we're gonna beat you like a drum,
Speaker 3: like we're gonna try to beat everybody else like a drum,
Speaker 3: Like we don't take anybody for granted. This team is
Speaker 3: too young to do that. Like, they don't see out
Speaker 3: of those eyes. They haven't established themselves. They haven't established
Speaker 3: themselves as a year in and year out. And we're
Speaker 3: going to go to the playoffs. We are gonna try
Speaker 3: to win the Super Bowl. No, we're building right now,
Speaker 3: so you can't ever overlook the Panthers. Why would you
Speaker 3: overlook the Panthers because the Panthers ShW ain't overlooking you.
Speaker 2: No, that's true.
Speaker 1: And I love the Bobby Wagner of course, a guy
Speaker 1: who is already a legend in this league later on
Speaker 1: his careers to playing at a high levels talking about accountability.
Speaker 1: I learned from this and be accountable and say, all right,
Speaker 1: now it's time to learn from this and get better.
Speaker 2: No, you have to get better, man, Like we can
Speaker 2: learn from my mistakes.
Speaker 3: And that's why I got my old saying that I've
Speaker 3: been telling the fan base the whole year. Let Grandmama
Speaker 3: Cook be patient. I understand this is this is for
Speaker 3: the long haul. This is not a sugar high. We're
Speaker 3: not just we're building for something long term, something that
Speaker 3: can be sustained over a decade. We're trying to build
Speaker 3: something real. I need people to be conscious of where
Speaker 3: we at, who we are, and what we got going on.
Speaker 1: You got to get let grandma cook on a shirt.
Speaker 1: Somebody said that in the comments, and I thought that
Speaker 1: was a.
Speaker 3: I am gonna get this two shirts that I'm finished
Speaker 3: set out to make. All right, Let grandma cook with
Speaker 3: her over there, pot stirring their pot like young jeezy.
Speaker 2: Second of all, Second of all, I'm gonna do my damn.
Speaker 3: Shame Hall of Fame shirt and I'm looking for people
Speaker 3: to help me out with that. Where I'm gonna put
Speaker 3: Joja Kobe on the right, all his stats, everything, London
Speaker 3: Fletcher in the middle, Brian Mitchell on the left, all
Speaker 3: of it.
Speaker 2: Because it's a damn shame that these three players are
Speaker 2: not in the Hall of Fame.
Speaker 3: And it's up to us, with the fan base, the
Speaker 3: fans of Washington, we have to hold them accountable, hold
Speaker 3: the Hall of Fame accountable. First of all, I just
Speaker 3: want to be honest. I love everybody that get in.
Speaker 3: I support everybody that get in, but no way, and
Speaker 3: I love Devin Hester. That one of my favorite players
Speaker 3: all time. He should not have got in before be mintioned.
Speaker 2: I'm sorry.
Speaker 3: I think Devin Hester would with that. Devin would agree
Speaker 3: with that. Patrick Willis. I love Patrick Willis. Patrick Willis
Speaker 3: play that old miss. I've been a fan of Patrick.
Speaker 3: He shouldn't have got him before London Fletch. Yeah, like
Speaker 3: I love all the guys. Come on, Joja Kobe, come on, man,
Speaker 3: It's time to show some love. It's time to show
Speaker 3: some respect. Stop all the hate.
Speaker 1: You know, my favorite T shirts throwing in the NFL
Speaker 1: is remember when Brian Bosworth played, Yeah, and he't played
Speaker 1: for too long.
Speaker 2: The Boss the Boss, and I hated the boss because
Speaker 2: you hated the butt.
Speaker 1: When he came in the league, he was really brashed
Speaker 1: and he was challenging like the league's number rules, like
Speaker 1: he wanted to wear forty four you couldn't at the time,
Speaker 1: as a whole mess. But people hated him, right, and
Speaker 1: so he went. He was playing for the Seahawks and
Speaker 1: they went to Denver one weekend and all these Denver
Speaker 1: fans were buying T shirts that said like f bolls
Speaker 1: or whatever it was. Guess who was the one who
Speaker 1: had those T shirts made? He did, Yes, So he's like,
Speaker 1: I know they hate me, I'm gonna make these shirts.
Speaker 1: And Denver fans were patting his pockets listening.
Speaker 3: At the end of the day, any emotion pays you.
Speaker 3: If you hate me, you invested in me. Yeah, if
Speaker 3: you love me, you invest it to me. As long
Speaker 3: as I stroke any emotion from you, it tells me
Speaker 3: you emotionally invested in me.
Speaker 2: All right.
Speaker 3: So as a corner, that's why I talked so much.
Speaker 3: Trash fan base just hated me.
Speaker 2: But my fan base loved me.
Speaker 3: Yes, because I still represented them to the point where
Speaker 3: they wanted to talk to Trash. So until I regurgitated
Speaker 3: what they really wanted to say to these players, I regurgitated.
Speaker 3: So it don't matter emotionally, Like, as long as I
Speaker 3: got you on the hook emotionally, you're a part of me.
Speaker 1: So since we was talking about emotions, is there You
Speaker 1: made a good point because we were talking just before
Speaker 1: we went on the emotions of playing a team used
Speaker 1: to play for, like Jeremy Chin or Frankie Luvu, and
Speaker 1: we thought, okay, this is a revenge gave me going back,
Speaker 1: and you said no, no, no, not when you upgrade.
Speaker 3: Right, It's like, I don't think Frankie lou was coming
Speaker 3: in and saying you didn't believe in me.
Speaker 2: Are gonna make you.
Speaker 3: Hey, Jeremy chen, I hate y'all, y'all and give me
Speaker 3: a chance. You want to read me up.
Speaker 2: No, I think it's thank you.
Speaker 3: Thank you for letting me leave, thank you for letting
Speaker 3: me upgrade my situation, thank you for giving me a shot.
Speaker 2: Yes, thank you.
Speaker 4: No.
Speaker 2: Hate.
Speaker 3: Still got teammates on that team they played with that
Speaker 3: they're looking back at Afar and be like, Okay, Carolina.
Speaker 2: Going through the same thing we went through last year.
Speaker 3: Huh, Well, I'm not going through that right now. I'm
Speaker 3: in a better place. And when you're in a better place,
Speaker 3: you don't spew hate, you.
Speaker 2: Spew happen and hey, appreciate you, Appreciate you. I'm gonna
Speaker 2: go over here.
Speaker 3: You know how many of them teammates they're gonna shake
Speaker 3: their hand up after that game and say, you know what,
Speaker 3: we got a spot for you over here.
Speaker 2: If we want to come back. Yeah, they want to
Speaker 2: come back. No, No, come on, you come here. I
Speaker 2: understand what you're going through there. Yeah, come here, ma'am.
Speaker 2: I'm having fun. I'm enjoying it.
Speaker 3: This environment is great, the franchise is great, the ownership
Speaker 3: is great, the head coach is great.
Speaker 2: Come on over here, man, the sun is shining. No
Speaker 2: hate here.
Speaker 3: Like even when I left Minnesota, I asked him trade
Speaker 3: me back to wash I had no malice, I had
Speaker 3: no hate against me.
Speaker 2: You've always said you appreciated your time there. I enjoyed
Speaker 2: my time there. I loved my time there.
Speaker 3: But I also understood if I really wanted to get
Speaker 3: the best out of Fred Smooth, I needed to be
Speaker 3: and washed. I was happy here. This was home. After retiring,
Speaker 3: it's still home. Like I felt better here. And sometime
Speaker 3: I don't think, at the least get to say how
Speaker 3: they feel because we don't get that choice with I
Speaker 3: won that type dude.
Speaker 2: I went right up to the ownership.
Speaker 3: I skipped the head coach and skipped the GM and said, hey, man,
Speaker 3: I want to go back.
Speaker 2: They're like, nah, no, I want to go back. Please
Speaker 2: help me help me do this. And Coach Gibbs was like, yes,
Speaker 2: come on back.
Speaker 1: I'll give the path this credit. They do do some
Speaker 1: things well. Chuba Hubbard runs the ball.
Speaker 2: He runs the ball. She would can play. He played well.
Speaker 2: I remember when Texas was playff Clomb and State. He
Speaker 2: was great. I would run in the ball ninety two yards.
Speaker 1: Last week, and now you have maybe a bit of
Speaker 1: a week in defensive front because Sean Allen is out.
Speaker 1: So how do you slow down Carolina defensively?
Speaker 2: Making one dimensional? You forced the red rifle to beat you.
Speaker 3: You're not gonna let you beat him on the ground
Speaker 3: because when you beat you on the ground, it's kind
Speaker 3: of defensive. Like people look at running the ball as offensive,
Speaker 3: it's kind of defensive because if they run the ball,
Speaker 3: they keep James Daniels on the sideline. We don't want
Speaker 3: them to do that. We want them to be three
Speaker 3: and out, three and out. So that's how you got
Speaker 3: to do it. You got to put the ball in
Speaker 3: the red rifle hands and say you beat me, We're
Speaker 3: not gonna let you beat that. Then we got the
Speaker 3: crowd noise. It's gonna be home fill advantage. It's gonna
Speaker 3: be the green day. How it's gonna be so many
Speaker 3: emotions going on in the game. It's gonna be the
Speaker 3: old folks home ashburn in there. I'm talking about old
Speaker 3: on old on old. I'm gonna get to see guys
Speaker 3: from the seventies. I'm gonna get to see guy from
Speaker 3: the eighties the nineties. But guess what that's the Green's gap.
Speaker 3: He played with all of us.
Speaker 2: He's like the lynch pin.
Speaker 3: Like, listen, I got to play with d Green and
Speaker 3: I got drafted into thousand and one. Ray Brown got
Speaker 3: to play with Dee Green. And what did they play
Speaker 3: together in the nineties?
Speaker 2: The eighties? Definitely the eighties.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm just like, it's such a big gap there, Like,
Speaker 3: I don't think it's any other player that you can say,
Speaker 3: we're gonna retire your jersey. And they touched so many generations, Yes,
Speaker 3: Like he's touch so many generations that it's gonna be crazy.
Speaker 3: So the emotions will be off the wall. The fan
Speaker 3: base is gonna be crazy. Maybe it just was a
Speaker 3: bad week for the Panthers to play us. We don't
Speaker 3: make the schedule. The schedule make us. But I just
Speaker 3: think it's going to be an emotional uproar in there,
Speaker 3: and I think the player is gonna be inching at
Speaker 3: the bit to get back in the win column. Like
Speaker 3: that's all they thinking about. Let's get back in the
Speaker 3: win column. We don't care who we're playing. It just
Speaker 3: happened to be the Panthers.
Speaker 1: Call us in the house phone, please do doesn't matter
Speaker 1: on the road doesn't matter if you have a hot take.
Speaker 2: You want to ask me the question, tell us me
Speaker 2: how good he looks in his mock neck. It's fault weather.

Speaker 2: I did, like I used to watch Reading Rainbow. LaVar Burton, right,
Speaker 2: littlevar Burden. I think he was the teacher for all
Speaker 2: of us. I think he's the universal American teacher. Immediately
Speaker 2: I was like, Oh, it was Lvar Burda And what
Speaker 2: was what was the other one with the paint dude? Oh,
Speaker 2: oh gosh, Yes, I know you're talking. You know what
Speaker 2: I'm talking about, the white Frog. Yes, you're the pretty
Speaker 2: little greeze two figureheads top the eighties in the nineties.
Speaker 2: Everything we know that's very true.
Speaker 1: Yes, Like it's a touch point for almost everyone to
Speaker 1: grow up in that generation.
Speaker 3: Show our generation was a different generation. Think about our generation.
Speaker 3: We went from flow model TVs to cell phones. Yeah,
Speaker 3: paid phones. We we've seen it all. Like we're the
Speaker 3: generation that's non technology all technologies.
Speaker 2: Like, so we're the test dumbis jinx, that's true. We
Speaker 2: are the test.
Speaker 3: Dumbis and nine kids they major in technology where we
Speaker 3: like when I tell my kid, back in my day,
Speaker 3: I never want to feel like that because my parents
Speaker 3: said it out back in our day.
Speaker 2: And now I catch myself. We didn't have that.
Speaker 3: I didn't have a cartoon network that showed cartoons anytime
Speaker 3: I had to wait after school.
Speaker 2: I had to wait Saturday morning. Different generations.
Speaker 1: And then you say things that don't quite make sense,
Speaker 1: like I didn't own a TikTok.
Speaker 2: You're like, that's not really the way you should.
Speaker 3: Say that, Say that I can't be tiktoking around here.
Speaker 2: Come on, dad, join me in this TikTok.
Speaker 1: And I'm like, no, so one got the Spanish generations
Speaker 1: as we know you were talking about them. Yal Green, Yeah,
Speaker 1: we'll have his jersey rightfully retired y Sunday. What does
Speaker 1: a guy who has done everything one of the greatest
Speaker 1: to ever play this game, regardless of team.
Speaker 2: What does he mean to this franchise?
Speaker 3: First of all, what does he mean to this city?
Speaker 3: What does he mean to the DMV. He's been here
Speaker 3: so long, He's done so much. He's he's mister Washington.
Speaker 3: They did a pole on the most dominant athlete in
Speaker 3: D and V history and D Green one. He is
Speaker 3: when you say DC is the president and then there Green.
Speaker 3: D Green has touched so much of the youth with
Speaker 3: That's who I picked up my philanthropre doing stuff for people.
Speaker 2: I picked it up from there from when I got here.
Speaker 3: He was like, Man, you're gonna touch a lot of
Speaker 3: people bey how you play. I want you to touch
Speaker 3: a lot of people by what you do for them.
Speaker 3: All right, So giving back he really incorporated. That was
Speaker 3: already a piece of me, but he really showed me
Speaker 3: how to get that done. He said, any time the
Speaker 3: team asks you to do something, never turned them down.
Speaker 3: And I have always been like that. I never turned
Speaker 3: them down. And I think that's what makes him more
Speaker 3: than aer athlete. Some players are just athletes. Okay, I
Speaker 3: get that. He is more thanner athlete. He is a
Speaker 3: part of this area He's a part of lives. People
Speaker 3: timestamp themselves out of games he played and things he's done.
Speaker 3: So it's so different when you more than just a player.
Speaker 3: And Darrel Green is the appear to me of more
Speaker 3: than just a player.
Speaker 1: I can see that rubbing off on you because I've
Speaker 1: been out with you in the wild and you are
Speaker 1: someone who spends time with people. You talk, have a conversation,
Speaker 1: and do something for the community. And doesn't that mean
Speaker 1: so much to a fan because you never know what
Speaker 1: you're gonna get when it comes to someone famous, could
Speaker 1: be an actor, could be a celebrity who whatever it is,
Speaker 1: and then you meet him like and not only that,
Speaker 1: I love watching them play. Yeah, I met this person.
Speaker 1: They were great to me And that really solidifies that.
Speaker 3: He shocked with just a conversation, a two minute conversation.
Speaker 3: Man Like, people are investments. People are the power. People
Speaker 3: always ask you got money, You got this? No, I
Speaker 3: got people wealth and loads I got people wealth. I'll
Speaker 3: never be broke. They won't let me be broken. And
Speaker 3: that's what you invest your time and you invest your
Speaker 3: things into people. And I think that's what they're always taught.
Speaker 3: They're taught people. He was always one of those guys
Speaker 3: you could go up in the locker room and sit
Speaker 3: down and have a conversation with. No matter how hard
Speaker 3: it was, no matter what it was about, he was
Speaker 3: gonna be like, yeah, man, you should do it this way,
Speaker 3: you should get it done this way.
Speaker 2: I know this is bothering you. How about we we.
Speaker 3: Do it a whole different way. So he was one
Speaker 3: of them guys. He's a problem solver. And when you
Speaker 3: a problem solved in society, society needs you.
Speaker 2: Society is full of problems.
Speaker 1: And you know, I grew up in Texas, as we know,
Speaker 1: and even from Afar like growing up and learning watching
Speaker 1: the NFL, Darryl Green was a star.
Speaker 2: He was a star where you remember superstars.
Speaker 1: They would have to show superstars and they would take
Speaker 1: athletes from I remember, all different sports they woul compete
Speaker 1: against each other, and of course they put him in
Speaker 1: the sprint.
Speaker 3: They first of all, nobody could be nobody could ever
Speaker 3: beat him. He's the fastest old man in the world,
Speaker 3: but he was. I con bet right now that Daryl
Speaker 3: could probably beat some thirty year olds right now. He's
Speaker 3: just one of the best athletes I've ever seen. I
Speaker 3: remember him blowing out.
Speaker 2: Who was that? Herschel Waller walk like the fastest man
Speaker 2: I ever seen.
Speaker 3: And it asked me to challenge myself and say, could
Speaker 3: he have beat Carl Lewis? Because I think as a runner,
Speaker 3: you only fastest who you racing like, so if nobody
Speaker 3: in football could challenge him, why not go challenge the
Speaker 3: track start? And I think right now to this day,
Speaker 3: I'm sorry, Carr, I'm sorry. I think Daryl Green could
Speaker 3: have beaten you.
Speaker 2: Carl Lewis.
Speaker 3: I think Daryl Green could have beaten you, just like
Speaker 3: I would love to see nor Loud in the Cheetah.
Speaker 2: I would never do what you think.
Speaker 1: Oh man, I hate to get off track here, but
Speaker 1: the world's fastest man with the multiple gold medals in
Speaker 1: the Olympics, I think.
Speaker 2: Dale Green could have beat him. Yeah. Dale Green beat
Speaker 2: me when I was twenty one old.
Speaker 3: That's when we were still having the fastest Washington Player contest.
Speaker 2: So it was me and him and Champ at the end,
Speaker 2: and he beat me in Champ. He was forty. He
Speaker 2: was unbelievable. I went home and cried. I looked at
Speaker 2: my feet and said.
Speaker 3: You know what, what's wrong with you?
Speaker 1: Like?
Speaker 3: Listen, man, is. I really I would love to see
Speaker 3: that race, even with them.
Speaker 2: Oh.
Speaker 3: I would love to see the Carl Lewis the Dale
Speaker 3: Green race, just like I want to see the Nord lives.
Speaker 2: In the Chill. I really do.
Speaker 3: I think Tyreek Hill can give him a run for
Speaker 3: his money because I like Dale Green. I think Tyreek
Speaker 3: is only fastest the person he's racing. Yeah, I really
Speaker 3: do legitly think that. And it's a dB, A former dB.
Speaker 3: We are chasers. Our job is to chase people, so
Speaker 3: at a blink of a dime, we have to make
Speaker 3: cuts and we have to go get people from from three, four,
Speaker 3: five six yards.
Speaker 2: I think if.
Speaker 3: Carl Lewis got out on Dale Green, let's just say
Speaker 3: he had a three step lead, Okay, I think Day
Speaker 3: will run him down.
Speaker 2: I think Darren will run him down. I would love
Speaker 2: to believe that.
Speaker 1: But I just track these world class track athletes when
Speaker 1: that's all they do.
Speaker 2: Like everything they do every there's no wasted motion.
Speaker 1: Everything they do is in such a way to gain
Speaker 1: speed to make sure that they don't overexert themselves. It
Speaker 1: has to do with aerodynamics, everything as opposed to be in.
Speaker 3: I'm just fast, yeah, and that's why I think Darrel
Speaker 3: would beat him because Darrell just fast.
Speaker 2: He's running reckless. But these rods are already just fast.
Speaker 2: Now we're going into the technical life, but they also.
Speaker 3: Is one technical difficulty and they can't do it one. Oh,
Speaker 3: I got out the block slow. If dy all get
Speaker 3: out the block slow, he don't care, right. So I
Speaker 3: just think the wildness of what Darryl is in his
Speaker 3: he would beat them, Like I legitly think he would
Speaker 3: have beat them. I think I've seen guys that run
Speaker 3: for two. What do you think Darryl Forty.
Speaker 2: Was coming out as a youngster. It's easily four three
Speaker 2: four two something.
Speaker 3: It's way faster than four to three, way faster than
Speaker 3: four three.
Speaker 2: We if you're getting in four to two is like
Speaker 2: sort of the limits of what we've seen.
Speaker 3: I feel like if Daryl really raced Carl Lewis, we
Speaker 3: wouldn't know who will win because there'll probably go back
Speaker 3: in time before the race over.
Speaker 2: I feel like he would run.
Speaker 1: He would run so fast that he'll be in the
Speaker 1: future like before the end.
Speaker 5: He would just just disappear and he's show up at
Speaker 5: like sixteen show in twenty twenty five, what happened like
Speaker 5: what was going on? Listen, man, I'm telling you, man,
Speaker 5: I've seen Daryl run Man and it's ridiculous how fast
Speaker 5: that dude was. Like, I think he's one of the
Speaker 5: athletes that we truly don't know his speed. I think
Speaker 5: we truly didn't get I don't think he got clocked.
Speaker 1: Okay, that's fair because I don't think they had electronic thoms,
Speaker 1: electric just hands.
Speaker 2: They were doing it with hand tie.
Speaker 3: So I think truly he could have been one of
Speaker 3: the fastest men on Earth.
Speaker 1: Well, he'll still probably be the fastest guy this weekend.
Speaker 1: We know that it's Legend's weekend. Yeah, alumni weekend, old folks,
Speaker 1: old folks weeken. So outside of the green, who were
Speaker 1: you most forward to looking to see it?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 3: I love me some Ray Brown. Yeah, listen, Ray Brown
Speaker 3: is my guy. I love to see Jacoby. You notice
Speaker 3: I like Office Alive, and indeed it's alive. It's a
Speaker 3: big boys.
Speaker 2: Man.
Speaker 3: I want to see those guys with a guy like
Speaker 3: there Gardner came back, the guy that stole my house
Speaker 3: for like three weeks. I love like even guys from
Speaker 3: my class, Rob Gartner. Like I love to see family.
Speaker 3: I love to see like I'm one of those guys.
Speaker 3: I knew everybody on my teams. I ingratiated myself with
Speaker 3: the old guys. Luckily, I get to see Gary all
Speaker 3: the time. So I want to see Art Monk. I
Speaker 3: love art because art don't like to talk, so he
Speaker 3: just listened to me talking all the time.
Speaker 2: He's a great listener.
Speaker 3: I love to see big Country Stephen Davis, that's my guy.
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: I actually want to see Casey Radbox them my guys,
Speaker 3: Ethan all.
Speaker 2: Bright, the rich snapper. You understand me. Nobody gives the
Speaker 2: loan snapper love.
Speaker 3: I love me and Ethan all Bright used to sit
Speaker 3: and talk trash to each other so much. Now, Yes, yes,
Speaker 3: I said it, a trash talking loan snapper. I sat said,
Speaker 3: don't think I've ever heard that before. Yes, a trash
Speaker 3: talking loan snapper. Frost Frost partner like like, I like
Speaker 3: to see everybody, like everybody man, because football don't last forever,
Speaker 3: but these these connections do. Bubba Tyler the trainer, I
Speaker 3: love Bubble like all us love Bubble. So it's it's
Speaker 3: a little bit of everybody. I'm looking forward to seeing
Speaker 3: everybody so I can just talk trash to him the
Speaker 3: whole weekend.
Speaker 2: Is there's someone you ever get an all like for me?
Speaker 1: And of course when I first started, I was like,
Speaker 1: oh my god, there's athletes, celebrities.
Speaker 2: But then you realize quickly is the job. I got
Speaker 2: a job to do.
Speaker 1: But when I meet famous broadcasters, people I admire, like
Speaker 1: I met James Brown one time.
Speaker 2: James Brown one of my favorite. I got to work
Speaker 2: with James Brown when I worked for CBS. He was
Speaker 2: so far. I believe he's from Bethesta, No, he's from
Speaker 2: his area. Yeah.
Speaker 1: And so I walked into my old studo this years
Speaker 1: ago and he goes, hey, Michael, and I was.
Speaker 2: Like, James Brown knows my name? Yeah, JP, like I
Speaker 2: could like I was nervous. I was like, I'm so nervous. Yea,
Speaker 2: you know, It's nice to meet you, admiring you so much.
Speaker 1: Is there a player or someone that you are still
Speaker 1: sort of in awe of.
Speaker 3: I can't say this because the player that I was
Speaker 3: in awe of he made itself available for me in college,
Speaker 3: and that was Dione Sanders.
Speaker 2: Okay, I pad on everything.
Speaker 3: I WoT number two in college because of the uh
Speaker 3: like everything I did was because of the and he
Speaker 3: reached out to me while I was in college.
Speaker 2: To give me a heads up on this so dead
Speaker 2: saying that he.
Speaker 3: Was watching me so kind of broke my starscruckness.
Speaker 2: It took it away. It took it. That's a beautiful thing. Yeah,
Speaker 2: it took it away.
Speaker 3: So once I got here, it was like, man, I'm
Speaker 3: I'm fine, I'm good.
Speaker 2: So I was never starscruke.
Speaker 3: I think the first time truly that I was starscrug
Speaker 3: because I just never looked at people like that was
Speaker 3: when I met Barack Obama.
Speaker 2: Okay, well I Barck.
Speaker 3: I was like, oh, this is what importance looked like,
Speaker 3: because I didn't feel like as an athlete when my
Speaker 3: job was important, but the president's job was important.
Speaker 2: So to meet Barack was the guy. All right. That
Speaker 2: was the guy.
Speaker 3: The only guy from even the past that I think
Speaker 3: I'll be starscrug with. It's one of my favorite all time,
Speaker 3: and that's been Franklin. You know, I love being frank Listen, like.
Speaker 2: The biggest Benjamin Franklin. Listen. I just want one day
Speaker 2: to spend with this man. I think he's one of
Speaker 2: the most brilliant men of all time.
Speaker 3: Okay, it's the reason why he one hundred dollars bill
Speaker 3: and he was never president. He was a diplomat in
Speaker 3: a way that nobody else was. He was special in
Speaker 3: a way that nobody else was. So if I could
Speaker 3: bring up anybody from history to just spend a day with,
Speaker 3: it'll be being Franklin.
Speaker 2: What about you like one dude, like one one dude
Speaker 2: all history.
Speaker 3: You get to spend a whole day with pick his
Speaker 3: brain history.
Speaker 2: You gotta go with honest Abe.
Speaker 3: Maybe right, you're gonna go Abraham, Yeah, Lincoln.
Speaker 1: My girlfriend, the Lovely Catherine asked me that I don't
Speaker 1: know why we're talking about presidents, and she was you
Speaker 1: thinking about Abraham?
Speaker 2: I go, Abraham? Are you talking about Abe Lincoln? What
Speaker 2: are you calling him?
Speaker 1: Abrahamcol Is maybe a Lincoln. I think that's an obvious answer,
Speaker 1: but I didn't think about it.
Speaker 3: What happened if you and A was kicking it that day,
Speaker 3: and you know he used to be a boxer in
Speaker 3: the wrestler I did not know that. You did not
Speaker 3: know what if ab took his shirt off and be like,
Speaker 3: come on, jink, let's go couple of rounds.
Speaker 2: I'll tell you what I think.
Speaker 1: If A if Abraham Lincoln took his shirt off around

Speaker 4: just coming to board. I'm talking about the old fans,
Speaker 4: fans that's been around for a while, you know what

Speaker 4: Bowl in nineteen ninety one. We all need to go
Speaker 4: sit down with a therapists. We need to let them

Speaker 2: he is right. I think we need to call this
Speaker 2: is a job for Doctor Field.

Speaker 3: imagine just bringing Doctor Field before a game and let
Speaker 3: him talk to the fan base.
Speaker 2: Wouldn't that be great? You don't think that'll be great.

Speaker 2: great for me.
Speaker 7: Okay, all right, Well, why was a great little voicemail.
Speaker 2: That was it. That was it? Because well done man.
Speaker 2: This However, what.
Speaker 6: I've got coming up here, I want as many voicemails
Speaker 6: you guys, send your takes, your thoughts.
Speaker 7: We're about to do some serious player comps here.
Speaker 6: We're gonna do Washington Legends to current NFL players, and
Speaker 6: if there's anybody we missed, feel free to let us
Speaker 6: know in the comments and the voicemails, and we'll give
Speaker 6: you our takes next week.
Speaker 3: I'm terrible this, yeah, because every player got a temp
Speaker 3: plate like we are.
Speaker 2: We a piece of every athlete that played before us.
Speaker 3: I just like to try to match them up to
Speaker 3: make them be for me.
Speaker 7: You know, was yours Dion fred Or? Who was it?
Speaker 7: Because I know you said he impacted you a lot.
Speaker 2: He impacted me a lot.
Speaker 3: But I think people would have come me because I
Speaker 3: came in right when Conans was starting to get taller,
Speaker 3: so I was I was really a tall Loan Coner
Speaker 3: then didn't quite headed the speed of a d On Sander,
Speaker 3: so uh.
Speaker 2: It was a it'll be hard. Let me come back
Speaker 2: to that.
Speaker 3: Let's see what they were to stick around. Bill Carter
Speaker 3: is who they compared me to coming out.
Speaker 6: Okay, let's stick around and we can hear Fred's personal
Speaker 6: player comp for himself. But we'll start off on the
Speaker 6: defensive side of the ball with Champ Bailey.
Speaker 1: Oh so you have a very soothing voice today, commercial
Speaker 1: or something I don't know.
Speaker 2: And later will take some more voice. Man, I hate
Speaker 2: to do this.
Speaker 3: It's good when it curves the Champ, especially with me
Speaker 3: having a relationship with him and play with him on
Speaker 3: the opposite side of him.
Speaker 2: No, we have no Chump.
Speaker 3: Belly, not on this team. We have no athlete that
Speaker 3: compares the Champ. Don't forget Champ played wide receiver and
Speaker 3: running back to and return kicks.
Speaker 1: What about a former what about a current day like
Speaker 1: a Patrick sir tant Now there will be more to
Speaker 1: a Champ Bailey.
Speaker 2: That'll be more to a Champ Bailey.
Speaker 3: But to say we have one on this roster, we
Speaker 3: don't have a Champ Bailly on this rosh.
Speaker 7: We're doing NFL. If we're doing NFL in general.
Speaker 3: NFL, I would go, yeah, Patrick certain Jordan, I got one,
Speaker 3: Yeah you did, I got nice.
Speaker 2: Who we got next? Now?
Speaker 7: All right?
Speaker 3: Pierre Garson, Oh, Pierre, like Luke McCaffrey. Okay, Luke McCaffrey,
Speaker 3: Pierre was man. Listen, Pierre dog.
Speaker 2: You know what.
Speaker 1: But every time I hear someone talk about Pierre that
Speaker 1: played with them, Yeah, the first thing do is that
Speaker 1: they say, yo, man, listen.
Speaker 2: To me man.
Speaker 3: One of the one of the strongest wide receivers. Love
Speaker 3: blocking like most Steven don't like to block. Pierre will
Speaker 3: choke you, all right, Pierre was Listen, when you play
Speaker 3: Pierre Garson, get ready for four quarters of football. Just
Speaker 3: won't be just a wide receive a cornerback thing. Pierre
Speaker 3: is going to dig out linebackers. Pierre is going to
Speaker 3: wrestle DB's to the ground. Pierre is going to bite
Speaker 3: you on your leg through the face.
Speaker 2: Mans.
Speaker 3: I don't even know how that happened. Luke McCaffrey gives
Speaker 3: off Pierre vibes.
Speaker 2: Are you going from people going NFL?
Speaker 7: You can do the entire NFL? So don't feel like
Speaker 7: stuck to this roster.
Speaker 2: What I do feel like he's very Pierre like it.
Speaker 3: How about Rod Gardner family, Listen, listen, this is his name, family,
Speaker 3: that's what we call Rod. It was a huge dude,
Speaker 3: like just a big old wide receiver could get deep.
Speaker 2: That one really his thing, but he could fight for
Speaker 2: the ball.
Speaker 3: And luckily we had a guy that he mimicked at
Speaker 3: the same time, Michael Retchbrook. Yep, they were the same
Speaker 3: guy to me, Rod Gardener and Michael Retchbrook with the.
Speaker 2: Same, similar skill set, similar skills.
Speaker 3: So if I had to say today, who would remind
Speaker 3: me of Rodd?
Speaker 2: That's a good question. Maybe a T. Higgins. Oh, he's
Speaker 2: a good one. Yeah, it's a good call, all right.
Speaker 7: How about Beams?
Speaker 3: I think B Mitch invented the third down back? All right,
Speaker 3: he invented the returner hashtag third down back. Austin Eckler, Yes,
Speaker 3: where's the third especially this year he's one of the
Speaker 3: third special team Eckler is the perfect B. Mitch clone.
Speaker 3: Plus they both missing hair.
Speaker 2: You picture of Mitch with hair? Can't that mustange? Weasel?
Speaker 3: He has the biggest mustange. I thought it was a snicker.
Speaker 3: I didn't know what it.
Speaker 7: Was, all right. How about Joe? Thisman, Joe, This.
Speaker 2: Is what people don't understand about Joe. Joe used to
Speaker 2: return kicks? Is wild to me? What on the quarterback
Speaker 2: that you know that used to return kicks? None of them?
Speaker 3: So I say Joe was a better athlete than people
Speaker 3: gave him credit for. All right, So I would probably
Speaker 3: say today Baker Mayfield like back Mayfield because Baker is
Speaker 3: a better athlete.
Speaker 2: Than people think. He is not super tall, y'all.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna throw in between the tack and I'm gonna
Speaker 3: do whatever I need to do to get the job done.
Speaker 2: Baker Mayfield thighsman is what I call. Oh I like that?
Speaker 7: How about uh, Darryl Green? Does anyone compare in the
Speaker 7: league today?
Speaker 2: I don't know. It's not another Daryl. I'm sorry.
Speaker 3: Nobody with those intangibles, Nobody that fast.
Speaker 1: I try to come up with, like Antoine Wentple, he's
Speaker 1: a safety and he's a big he's a big deal.
Speaker 2: It's nobody.
Speaker 3: I remember when I was talking to Chimp and Champ
Speaker 3: saw me watching Darryl on film and he was like,
Speaker 3: stop watching it, and I like what you mean? He
Speaker 3: was like, man, let me tell you. So can't nobody
Speaker 3: d Green? But d Green like, you're not gonna learn
Speaker 3: from his technique because nobody can do what he does
Speaker 3: his own thing. He does his own thing. So I
Speaker 3: don't think it's I don't think it's another Degreen out there.
Speaker 7: I don't how about uh Russ grim.
Speaker 2: Russ, Russ.
Speaker 3: Bey Oddish day, a little badass be Hoish Yes, yes,
Speaker 3: there go your rest Greham Clone, what do you think
Speaker 3: about that?
Speaker 2: Solid?
Speaker 3: What an addition Beonis has been by the way, say man, yes,
Speaker 3: I go be okay all right?
Speaker 6: And then I feel like we have to hit our
Speaker 6: command center guys.
Speaker 7: Santana Moss all right.
Speaker 2: Who is Santana's day? I would say Tyreek Hill.
Speaker 3: Oh, Tyrek's a good comp I say Tyrek the cheatah
Speaker 3: because I think Santana was the first of the small
Speaker 3: guys playing outside speed guys because before the ND they
Speaker 3: put him in the slot.
Speaker 2: Worthy is that too early?
Speaker 3: A straight line guy? I would say, he don't have
Speaker 3: the ability to stop? Said Tanner was fasting quick. That's true.
Speaker 2: To stop on the door, you can stop on the die.
Speaker 3: So the ability to stop, I say the cheetah they
Speaker 3: sat town.
Speaker 2: Who else we.
Speaker 7: Got London Fletcher see.
Speaker 3: London ran Afo the four to three coming out of school?
Speaker 3: Really yeah, so he was he was a bowling ball
Speaker 3: with like knives coming out of him. So I would
Speaker 3: probably say, uh m line basher linebacker. Plus he could
Speaker 3: catch like from a lot of lineback and kiss, So
Speaker 3: I probably say, Fred Warner, the Warners could not the
Speaker 3: same body type, Yeah, but the same explosives and if
Speaker 3: and the way they played and how nasty they are, Yeah,
Speaker 3: they kind of command the defense.
Speaker 6: Fred war all right, we have a time for about
Speaker 6: one more.
Speaker 7: You can choose a comp art monk or Doug Williams.
Speaker 7: Who do we want to find Arthur Monk?
Speaker 3: And I would go, oh, who is an art monk clone?
Speaker 2: My givings, I gotta Doug Williams cop. You gotta hate this.
Speaker 1: Joe Flacco, Joe flat Verdi, think about it for a second,
Speaker 1: had a short time or like, I can't play for
Speaker 1: multiple franchises, have Super Bowl MVP.
Speaker 2: And he was on, he was on tall quarterback, still
Speaker 2: played for a long time. That was great. It was great.
Speaker 2: And on that note, it's time for me to geek out.
Speaker 2: Let's geek out right? Do you not this?
Speaker 3: Scientists have discovered a sixth ocean beneath the earth surface?
Speaker 2: Okay? Question for me is what kind of animals are
Speaker 2: in the sixth Ocean? You probably don't want to know.
Speaker 2: Is it a is it a dinosaur in the sixth Ocean? Like,
Speaker 2: what's going on? Beneath the earth surface, ocean, beneath the ocean,
Speaker 2: beneath under the CRUs.
Speaker 7: Because I was just gonna say, isn't that just still ocean?
Speaker 3: But no, no, no, it's say deep sea ocean that
Speaker 3: they just think they found, and it's you know, the possibilities.
Speaker 2: Sciences just don't even know.
Speaker 1: Many of the animals and ocean those are the camera
Speaker 1: down there, they're like, what the hell is that something
Speaker 1: with eight eyes like swimming around there? Like we they
Speaker 1: don't even know what goes on in the depths of
Speaker 1: our about the moon, imagine there's something crawling off.
Speaker 3: And then the next one gotta check this out. You
Speaker 3: never would have thought this one, all right, our capone.
Speaker 3: It's the reason we had an expiration date on milk.
Speaker 2: Do you know that? Why?
Speaker 3: Because when his niece got very very sick from spoil milk,
Speaker 3: he puts hard for labels to protect children and pregnant women,
Speaker 3: our compone, that's what they want.
Speaker 8: I need you to put a date on that milk.
Speaker 8: Put that this is the last one right here. I
Speaker 8: do love children, said, this is the last one right here,
Speaker 8: right Check this out.
Speaker 2: Okay. Sea horses the.
Speaker 3: Only animal where the male gets pregnant instead of the female.
Speaker 2: That's not Sam. I'm glad you didn't know Colorado.
Speaker 7: Colorado education. All right, Fred, we got a comp for
Speaker 7: yourself there. Cotta del Cotta was my coll right, that's
Speaker 7: your okay, you're asking.
Speaker 2: For well, here goes. Think.
Speaker 3: I found out the hardway about the seahorse because I
Speaker 3: bought this very big fish tank, right, but it had corners,
Speaker 3: and my and my.
Speaker 2: Sea horses kept dying.
Speaker 3: And then my aquarium people say you cannot put a
Speaker 3: sea horse in the aquarium with corners because they don't
Speaker 3: they have no reverse so once they.
Speaker 2: Would get stuck in the corner, they would die from scratch.
Speaker 3: So you can only put sea horses in circular aquariums.
Speaker 3: And I had to learn the hardway because I kept
Speaker 3: buying these sea horses and I'm like, what's going on?
Speaker 2: They keep dying.
Speaker 3: He was like, yeah, you have a rectangular fish tank.
Speaker 3: You can't put him in there.
Speaker 2: I remember one time I was when I was living
Speaker 2: in Austin.
Speaker 1: I was working down there after I graduated, and I
Speaker 1: went to a pet store and I don't think they
Speaker 1: probably even allowed this anymore.
Speaker 2: And as you walk in it was a pet store
Speaker 2: in like a strip mall.
Speaker 1: And in the window they had a cayman, you know,
Speaker 1: and they are terrifying animals, man, And this thing like
Speaker 1: through the wall or through the window, you could hear
Speaker 1: it hissing, and I was like, what the And so
Speaker 1: I'm looking around and this this old karakey like pet
Speaker 1: store on it comes up to me. He goes, you know,
Speaker 1: you know, we don't sell those little like little tiny
Speaker 1: alligators and crocodiles, and kids by go.
Speaker 2: Yeah, why not? He goes, because they turned into that.
Speaker 1: And I was like, I believe because it was the
Speaker 1: meanest looking thing I ever seen.
Speaker 2: Man, Yes, most definitely. Oh yeah, get tickets to the
Speaker 2: next game. Let's do it. We got a huge I
Speaker 2: was like, get takes next game. Okay, I'll meet you
