7
00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:29,640
Speaker 1: the NFL championship games and my reaction to those. Let's

8
00:00:29,680 --> 00:00:32,040
Speaker 1: start with the Chiefs and Bengals. Let's go there first,

9
00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:35,400
Speaker 1: you know why, because that was a great game. That

10
00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:39,200
Speaker 1: was some good football. Like I went to my boys house,

11
00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:42,800
Speaker 1: Dana and Dave Pump, the Pump Brothers, if you guys

12
00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:45,720
Speaker 1: have heard of them. Um, these guys are like Tommy

Speaker 1: and Martin, Like you don't know what they do, but

14

Speaker 1: they do it all and they do it big, right.

15
00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:53,120
Speaker 1: So I'm over there, a bunch of cats in the house,

17
00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:02,240
Speaker 1: big time developer out here, Sugar eight Center, etcetera. And

18
00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:04,800
Speaker 1: if I forgot your name is just because you're not famous.

19
00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:08,760
Speaker 1: Now let me stop. Um. All respect to everybody who

20
00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:11,120
Speaker 1: was in the building, right so we're sitting there and

21
00:01:11,160 --> 00:01:13,119
Speaker 1: finally we got a good game. Because that first game,

22
00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:15,560
Speaker 1: we're gonna talk about it in a sect that was

23
00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:19,240
Speaker 1: not it. But this game. Oh yeah, So I'm I'm

24
00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:23,160
Speaker 1: posted on the couch with somebody who's more than famous.

25
00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:27,640
Speaker 1: He's actually rich, he's actually making an impact. My man,

26
00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:30,760
Speaker 1: Gary Corney Gay. If I said his last name right,

27
00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:34,200
Speaker 1: Corney Gay. But this dude's a beast. Y'all look him up,

28
00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:36,040
Speaker 1: Google him and y'all figure it out. Anyway, we're sitting

29
00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:40,240
Speaker 1: there watching this game, and what's amazing about this game

30
00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:43,200
Speaker 1: excuse me, other than the frog in my voice, what's

31
00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:46,920
Speaker 1: amazing about this game is you're watching it as it

32
00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:51,160
Speaker 1: is going down to the wire, and obviously Casey's jumped out,

33
00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:52,680
Speaker 1: had that lead, and then all of a sudden you

34
00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:55,000
Speaker 1: saw Cincinnati come back and you saw it tied for

35
00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:58,640
Speaker 1: a while. You're like, what's gonna happen to him? Cincinnati

36
00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:02,240
Speaker 1: gonna go for an oh against the Chiefs, Patrick Mahomes,

37
00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:05,600
Speaker 1: what are you doing right? But then you're like, nah,

38
00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:08,200
Speaker 1: I don't know they in Arrowhead this time. I mean, look,

39
00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:10,119
Speaker 1: I know three is the magic number, but maybe it's

40
00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:13,320
Speaker 1: four today. Finally, on the fourth try, Patrick Mahomes finally

41
00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:17,520
Speaker 1: gets over the hurdle. And you're watching this game, and

42
00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:21,520
Speaker 1: it came down to the referees. It came down to

43
00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:24,080
Speaker 1: the Zebras, but it didn't come down in the sense

44
00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:26,600
Speaker 1: I think that the narrative is right now, which is

45
00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:30,240
Speaker 1: the game is rigged. The game is not rigged in

46
00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:34,720
Speaker 1: my opinion. Why because if you look at this game,

47
00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:40,160
Speaker 1: that was a personal foul, that was unnecessary roughness, that

48
00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:44,519
Speaker 1: was fifteen yards. That was ball game as it should

49
00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:47,480
Speaker 1: have been. Anybody would have called that right, whether you're zebra,

50
00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:51,519
Speaker 1: whether you're referee, full locker dude, that works, work study y'all.

51
00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:55,440
Speaker 1: Whoever you are, you calling that play. But there were

52
00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:59,160
Speaker 1: other plays, obviously a mention that made some of the

53
00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:03,600
Speaker 1: NFL fans a little curious, a couple of dubious calls

54
00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:06,200
Speaker 1: here and there. But I'm not gonna dig down that

55
00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:09,240
Speaker 1: rabbit hole or travel down there. I'm gonna talk about

56
00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:12,040
Speaker 1: that one play. A lot of people call it the

57
00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:16,600
Speaker 1: bone head play, right, and I'm here to demystify the

58
00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:19,960
Speaker 1: bone head play because Patrick Mahomes, who can't run in

59
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:22,680
Speaker 1: this moment, I mean, by the second you just saw him,

60
00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:25,920
Speaker 1: the can atrophying out there, like you're like, dude, this

61
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:28,399
Speaker 1: dude ain't gonna make it to overtime if this game

62
00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:32,000
Speaker 1: has to go to overtime. Right, You're watching Patrick Mahomes

63
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:34,920
Speaker 1: in the moment, and all sudden he takes off running,

64
00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:38,080
Speaker 1: and my first thought was, come on, somebody pop on

65
00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:40,640
Speaker 1: the screen and go get his ass. Right, he can't

66
00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:44,000
Speaker 1: be running that fast. He's hurt. He got two left

67
00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:45,760
Speaker 1: legs or two right legs. I don't know which one

68
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:49,280
Speaker 1: was hurt. But he's not normal. Go get him. And

69
00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:51,120
Speaker 1: then one guy shoots into the screen, and then the

70
00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:53,440
Speaker 1: other guy shoots into the screen. Since I'm not working

71
00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:55,920
Speaker 1: at Network TV, I don't have to know their names anymore,

72
00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:59,400
Speaker 1: but um, the linebacker and the dB jump into the

73
00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:04,760
Speaker 1: screen and next thing you know, wo wow. And you know,

74
00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:10,280
Speaker 1: in this moment, in this millisecond, like right now, Patrick

75
00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:12,960
Speaker 1: Mahomes out of bounds, but he still gets pushed and

76
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:15,080
Speaker 1: you're like, oh, they're gonna call the flag. They gonna

77
00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:17,880
Speaker 1: they're gonna call it. They called it as they should

78
00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:20,559
Speaker 1: have called it, right, But let's talk about the bone

79
00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:23,840
Speaker 1: head play that moment. Why would you hit Patrick Mahomes

80
00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:26,760
Speaker 1: all the bounds his own teammates said it walking into

81
00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:29,839
Speaker 1: the locker room. You saw that on Instagram and on

82
00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:33,880
Speaker 1: social media as well. Why would you do that. I'm

83
00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:38,680
Speaker 1: here to defend the bone head play. I'm a guy who,

84
00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:44,160
Speaker 1: for many reasons, suffered from being great my entire career.

85
00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:46,479
Speaker 1: Um the first few years. Let's just be real, I

86
00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:49,080
Speaker 1: was behind Bruce Smith and Phil Hasson, and I came

87
00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:51,839
Speaker 1: from a small program. I came from Colombia. I wasn't

88
00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:54,920
Speaker 1: that good. I had to learn the ropes. I mean,

89
00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:57,840
Speaker 1: I was talented. Don't trip like. I ain't gonna be fake,

90
00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:01,760
Speaker 1: fake humble up here. I'm gonna be him. Um. I

91
00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:04,120
Speaker 1: was talented. I was an athlete. I was a beast,

92
00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:06,920
Speaker 1: but I ain't know football. I can't line. I was

93
00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:09,320
Speaker 1: a great artist who didn't have the science of football

94
00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:11,520
Speaker 1: down just yet. So it was great to be on

95
00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:15,760
Speaker 1: the bench and get opportunities and spot reps behind Bruce Smith,

96
00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:19,080
Speaker 1: the greatest defensive end ever, and Phil Hanson maybe the

97
00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:23,080
Speaker 1: most unheralded greatest defensive end ever. So I learned the

98
00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:25,440
Speaker 1: ropes from those guys and finally got my opportunity in

99
00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:27,240
Speaker 1: my fourth year. So that's three years of my career.

100
00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:32,680
Speaker 1: Ten year career, three years gone now. My fourth year

101
00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:34,760
Speaker 1: I had a back surgery, but I bawled. Fifth year

102
00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:37,120
Speaker 1: had a foot surgery, but I bawled. Right then I

103
00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:39,359
Speaker 1: started coming down the hill ever so slightly, and like

104
00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:42,360
Speaker 1: my sixth year, still up there though, still top fifty

105
00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:45,880
Speaker 1: in the league. Don't trip twice. Top fifty, yes, your boy, um.

106
00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:52,240
Speaker 1: But it was something that I suffered from was that

107
00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:57,080
Speaker 1: I never was maniacal. I never was single minded. I

108
00:05:57,120 --> 00:06:01,320
Speaker 1: never was nuclear focused like one thing, one thing, only

109
00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:04,360
Speaker 1: you know. I wasn't the lab rat. I wasn't see

110
00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:08,360
Speaker 1: color hit color. I was too mindful. I was too thoughtful,

111
00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:12,239
Speaker 1: probably as the scouts used to say, you're too smart

112
00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:15,000
Speaker 1: for your own good. Right. I always looked at the

113
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:21,760
Speaker 1: game not only rationally, but logically, rarely irrationally, and rarely

114
00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:24,120
Speaker 1: like a moment like this while I was just so

115
00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:27,120
Speaker 1: locked in that I made a bone head play. I

116
00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:31,560
Speaker 1: can't think of any bone head plays I made. And

117
00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:34,599
Speaker 1: that's a criticism, that is not a compliment. That is

118
00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:38,320
Speaker 1: one reason I think between the ears, I wasn't as

119
00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:41,440
Speaker 1: great as I could have been, as I should have been. Injuries,

120
00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:44,200
Speaker 1: of course, everybody knows my career for real knows that

121
00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:49,200
Speaker 1: in my primary years, by years of prime I should say, dog,

122
00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:52,560
Speaker 1: I got robbed, I got robbed. I give it that.

123
00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:56,040
Speaker 1: But before that, or at least underlying all of that,

124
00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:58,680
Speaker 1: was the fact that I wasn't like some of my

125
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:03,240
Speaker 1: great teammates who just were locked in, all in on

126
00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:05,719
Speaker 1: the play call, like they knew nothing else in life.

127
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:08,919
Speaker 1: And that's a compliment. And I saw it come to

128
00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:13,840
Speaker 1: fruition last night that last play running out of bounds.

129
00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:18,760
Speaker 1: You are so locked in, forget circumstances, even at times,

130
00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:24,920
Speaker 1: forget the moment. You are a hunting dog her and

131
00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:27,920
Speaker 1: see Patrick Mahomes, I am eating his ass up. I

132
00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:33,440
Speaker 1: don't care where and how. And that usually pays positive

133
00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:38,280
Speaker 1: dividends throughout the regular season and the playoffs. It usually

134
00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:41,920
Speaker 1: works for you. But every now and then, because life

135
00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:45,600
Speaker 1: is a bouncing that everything in moderation, including moderation right

136
00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:48,600
Speaker 1: when you're too extreme like that, A guy like that,

137
00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:51,040
Speaker 1: so locked in. I've had teammates like this, Hall of

138
00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:54,760
Speaker 1: Fame teammates like this. They're the ones that commit that

139
00:07:54,840 --> 00:08:00,680
Speaker 1: egregious error at the worst time. Yep, same guy that

140
00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:03,440
Speaker 1: makes all the plays that you're just sitting there. Damn

141
00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:05,920
Speaker 1: that boy good, Damn that dode good. Damn. He a

142
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:09,440
Speaker 1: beast is the same one that will eat his own.

143
00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:14,200
Speaker 1: That beast will eat his own at the worst possible moment,

144
00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:17,080
Speaker 1: and we saw it. That was the worst moment. I mean,

145
00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:19,400
Speaker 1: come on, you almost wish you would have just let

146
00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:22,320
Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes just go. He's running out of bounds, he's hurt,

147
00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:27,120
Speaker 1: he's compromised, he doesn't want the pain. But when you're

148
00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:29,320
Speaker 1: locked in like that, and when you're a good player

149
00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:34,200
Speaker 1: like that, that's sometimes the consequence of being that locked in.

150
00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:38,280
Speaker 1: So the game wasn't rigged, in my opinion, it was

151
00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:40,480
Speaker 1: just a game with special interests. Let's talk about those

152
00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:46,360
Speaker 1: special interests. Because every single crew of officials before the game,

153
00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:49,520
Speaker 1: and I've seen these meetings, have been privy to be

154
00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:53,199
Speaker 1: in that vicinity to see these meetings. They have a

155
00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:57,000
Speaker 1: points of emphasis meeting. All of the officials that get

156
00:08:57,040 --> 00:09:00,520
Speaker 1: together in the abandoned locker room somewhere in the stadium,

157
00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:03,520
Speaker 1: right And as you're walking out your locker room and

158
00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:06,520
Speaker 1: walking into your locker room, you see them and they

159
00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:10,199
Speaker 1: just huddled up like they're playing. Old asses, ain't playing right,

160
00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:13,280
Speaker 1: They all huddled up and on their white board, because

161
00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:16,199
Speaker 1: I'm old school, it was talk board, but I'll fast forward.

162
00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:20,760
Speaker 1: On their white board, they will have like holding um,

163
00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:26,440
Speaker 1: unnecessary roughness, um, all sides right. They will have actual

164
00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:32,360
Speaker 1: penalties that the NFL, the business headquarters, is trying to

165
00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:38,600
Speaker 1: make an emphasis in terms of hindering, curttelling, stopping, eliminating

166
00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:41,320
Speaker 1: these penalties. And every year we hear it in the

167
00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:43,240
Speaker 1: off season, but we just don't take notice. Every year

168
00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:48,720
Speaker 1: and offseason you hear, okay, uh, the Disciplinary Committee and

169
00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:52,600
Speaker 1: the CODA Conduct Committee and they've come together, and the

170
00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:56,400
Speaker 1: Player Safety Committee, all these committees right have come together

171
00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:59,360
Speaker 1: with new legislation and new rules, and the Rules Committee

172
00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:04,080
Speaker 1: says we're going to implement X. Well. X is emphasized

173
00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:10,719
Speaker 1: throughout the regular season and playoffs. I wonder was a

174
00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:16,120
Speaker 1: point of emphasis. Patrick Mahomes health, Mmm. Sounds like I'm

175
00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:19,440
Speaker 1: giving a little fuel to y'all conspiracy theorists out there

176
00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:25,480
Speaker 1: saying the game is rigged, right, m No, because this

177
00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:31,079
Speaker 1: happens every single week. Every single week, we're sitting there

178
00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:34,000
Speaker 1: with the points of emphasis that a lot of times

179
00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:37,880
Speaker 1: translates to more calls for that point of emphasis. Then

180
00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:40,000
Speaker 1: they call a lot of holding. Damn, this crew called

181
00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:42,040
Speaker 1: a lot of off sides. Damn. This crew is looking

182
00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:45,440
Speaker 1: for unnecessary roughness, whatever it may be. But that's how,

183
00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:48,320
Speaker 1: if you really want to run with one and go

184
00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:54,200
Speaker 1: into rabbit hole. The connection between the NFL business and

185
00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:57,960
Speaker 1: headquarters and their committees and how they want to legislate

186
00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:01,640
Speaker 1: the game and all of us utton how that plays

187
00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:05,959
Speaker 1: out on the actual field because through select the perception,

188
00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:10,280
Speaker 1: through the lens of the officials, they are emphasizing those

189
00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:13,640
Speaker 1: same calls. I get that, But other than that, I

190
00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:15,360
Speaker 1: don't get it. You know what, I also don't get

191
00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:18,320
Speaker 1: why the hell I watched all four quarters of the

192
00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:26,000
Speaker 1: Eagles forty Niners game. Hit Man sound like flavor flav Um.

193
00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:30,840
Speaker 1: Ain't no damn way with a fourth string quarterback. Don't

194
00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:34,200
Speaker 1: forget PERTI was third string and he was great. With

195
00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:38,200
Speaker 1: a fourth string quarterback on the road against the number

196
00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:42,160
Speaker 1: one seed, the forty Niners had a shot, no shot

197
00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:46,480
Speaker 1: at all, no shot. Who shot you? Nobody shot you?

198
00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:50,280
Speaker 1: You got no shot? I mean. And the worst thing

199
00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:54,000
Speaker 1: about it all is that we all felt like Obama

200
00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:57,719
Speaker 1: right holding on the hope, selling hope like ain't no hope, bro,

201
00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:00,199
Speaker 1: I've been on teams like that before. I've been in games,

202
00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:04,360
Speaker 1: I've been in playoff games. Before Music City Miracle. We

203
00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:10,560
Speaker 1: had our second best quarterback starting, Rob Johnson, not even

204
00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:13,800
Speaker 1: our fourth. Like we weren't because of injury. We weren't

205
00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:16,319
Speaker 1: not playing Dug Fluty because of injury. We were playing

206
00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:21,239
Speaker 1: Rob Johnson just because the money, just because the reputation,

207
00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:24,760
Speaker 1: just because he looked apart and he wasn't a scrub,

208
00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:28,400
Speaker 1: but he wasn't Dug Fluty by any stretch, and it

209
00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:32,040
Speaker 1: deflates the team goodness we were like and then we

210
00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:35,480
Speaker 1: walked out. I remember we were in Tennessee and we

211
00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:39,160
Speaker 1: already knew that Rob was starting, and you could just

212
00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:44,440
Speaker 1: feel a collective emptiness, like damn, like we leaving points

213
00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:46,040
Speaker 1: on the board before we even get on the field

214
00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:48,680
Speaker 1: to score points on the board. What are we doing?

215
00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:52,199
Speaker 1: And I was like, all right, do my part, which

216
00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:54,400
Speaker 1: I think I was in my second year. My part

217
00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:57,080
Speaker 1: wasn't large. Let's just say that, like, we weren't gonna

218
00:12:57,080 --> 00:12:59,160
Speaker 1: win the game because of me, and we certainly weren't

219
00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:00,760
Speaker 1: gonna lose the game because to me, I didn't have

220
00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:05,360
Speaker 1: that kind of impact at that time on the team.

221
00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:10,240
Speaker 1: But I'm sitting there like, man, this is big business.

222
00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:13,360
Speaker 1: This is silly. What are we doing? We're not even

223
00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:15,240
Speaker 1: putting our best foot forward. How the hell are we

224
00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:17,160
Speaker 1: supposed to win? Al We're supposed to win in spite

225
00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:21,880
Speaker 1: of the politics. Well, in this Eagles forty Niners game, Oh,

226
00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:25,440
Speaker 1: it wasn't about the politics. It was about the primal

227
00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:29,880
Speaker 1: behavior of defenders when they come off the edge and

228
00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:33,640
Speaker 1: they see a quarterback and smell blood. And when you

229
00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:36,200
Speaker 1: smell that blood, people always say, do you really try

230
00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:38,959
Speaker 1: to hurt people out there? Do you really try to

231
00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:43,199
Speaker 1: hurt players? Hell? Yeah, And the better you are, the

232
00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:47,760
Speaker 1: more I'm trying to hurt you. Why exhibit a Eagles

233
00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:50,439
Speaker 1: forty Niners. As soon as party went out that game,

234
00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:53,240
Speaker 1: the hopes of the forty Niners went out that game.

235
00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:56,000
Speaker 1: It was a rat. You couldn't win four string quarter

236
00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:59,800
Speaker 1: He like, I mean, look, he probably prepared. I'm I'm lying.

237
00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:02,520
Speaker 1: Don't think he was prepared, Like he will be prepared

238
00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:04,960
Speaker 1: if he were the starter. You can lie to yourself,

239
00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:08,080
Speaker 1: but yourself is not listening to those lives like yeah, yeah,

240
00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:11,839
Speaker 1: get every rep, get every second of film, prep be ready.

241
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:16,440
Speaker 1: How many delayed games that they have? I wonder how

242
00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:19,720
Speaker 1: many false starts too. I mean, dog, it was night

243
00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:22,160
Speaker 1: and day, and it was night and day from a

244
00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:26,840
Speaker 1: third stringer to a fourth stringer, not their starter, trade lance,

245
00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:29,560
Speaker 1: not their backup who should have been their starter, Jimmy

246
00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:32,360
Speaker 1: g q q D Pie. No, we were down to

247
00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:38,000
Speaker 1: rock party and then four stringer come on, Bro. So

248
00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:40,400
Speaker 1: it's so disappointed to watch a game like that because

249
00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:44,240
Speaker 1: you know the players are sitting there like, Bro, I mean,

250
00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:49,040
Speaker 1: we're gonna try, but we're gonna lie. This ain't gonna fly.

251
00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:52,560
Speaker 1: It wasn't gonna work. And I've just been in that

252
00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:55,560
Speaker 1: place before, the emptiness to doubt, and you try to

253
00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:59,000
Speaker 1: compartmentalize it, right, I gotta put it to the side.

254
00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:01,760
Speaker 1: Get that dog. Forget that dog. Got a hunt. I

255
00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:03,680
Speaker 1: don't give a damn with my leg hurt, gotta hunt.

256
00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:08,880
Speaker 1: And I don't even think. I don't think that game

257
00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:13,480
Speaker 1: was contentious at all. Like the score wasn't out of

258
00:15:13,520 --> 00:15:17,320
Speaker 1: control into what second half, but it was out of control.

259
00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:19,480
Speaker 1: Oh when they scored right before the half, that's when

260
00:15:19,520 --> 00:15:23,280
Speaker 1: you knew Pop he did flat line cold blue. You're like,

261
00:15:23,360 --> 00:15:25,600
Speaker 1: they let him score because it was that fumble ball

262
00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:27,360
Speaker 1: hit him right in the hands and Yang Yang Yang

263
00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:29,520
Speaker 1: was the named Thompson hit him right, hang Ying Yang

264
00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:32,240
Speaker 1: Yang ball on the ground. You're like, rap rap call.

265
00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:35,680
Speaker 1: It should have had the same ratings that the National

266
00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:39,200
Speaker 1: Championship Game had t c U versus Georgia, Like I

267
00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:41,960
Speaker 1: should have tuned out, then I should have known from

268
00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:44,880
Speaker 1: my experiences. I should have known. But hey, we all

269
00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:48,120
Speaker 1: we all stayed with it, hoping, hoping, and then you

270
00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:55,080
Speaker 1: realize who coaching matters, But to me, personnel matters much more.

271
00:15:56,040 --> 00:16:00,560
Speaker 1: It's not about the jockeys. It's about the horse and

272
00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:03,200
Speaker 1: the horses. And if you don't have those horses, I

273
00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:06,160
Speaker 1: don't care what jockey you got, you ain't getting nothing

274
00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:09,040
Speaker 1: out of this. Now, let's switch gears because this week

275
00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:17,320
Speaker 1: on Thursday, three year anniversary of Kobe Bryant's death, his

276
00:16:17,480 --> 00:16:25,520
Speaker 1: daughter Gianna and seven others, right, mm hmm um one.

277
00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:27,640
Speaker 1: I just feel weird, but I don't know another word.

278
00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:30,920
Speaker 1: They keep saying anniversary, and I'm like, I guess we're

279
00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:34,960
Speaker 1: into the phase of celebrating life, but I always think

280
00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:38,960
Speaker 1: about the departure and and the loss of death. Like

281
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:42,600
Speaker 1: I I hear y'all, y'all trying to paint a prettier

282
00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:46,160
Speaker 1: picture my mother passed away. Oh, it's the celebration of life,

283
00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:49,600
Speaker 1: and give her a video montage with her favorite songs.

284
00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:54,840
Speaker 1: And this feels good. But boy does this feel like hell? Um,

285
00:16:54,920 --> 00:16:57,000
Speaker 1: Let's talk about Kobe Bryant, because I'm gonna describe the

286
00:16:57,000 --> 00:16:59,720
Speaker 1: moment when I heard Kobe Bryant that passed and like

287
00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:03,120
Speaker 1: everyone out there listening, I know everyone out there watching,

288
00:17:03,160 --> 00:17:08,240
Speaker 1: I know true disbelief because Kobe was bigger than life.

289
00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:10,840
Speaker 1: Kobe was greater than life. You felt like not only

290
00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:14,720
Speaker 1: his persona and the Black Mamba and girls dad at

291
00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:19,119
Speaker 1: that time, but his game. Like you're like, yo, we

292
00:17:19,160 --> 00:17:22,359
Speaker 1: saw the second coming to Michael Jordan's and he's dead.

293
00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:28,160
Speaker 1: Like when I heard, I literally was on the way

294
00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:32,600
Speaker 1: en route to go into the airport. And I don't

295
00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:35,439
Speaker 1: travel much on purpose. I'm not trying to leave the crib,

296
00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:37,639
Speaker 1: certainly not trying to leave l A when everybody in

297
00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:39,800
Speaker 1: the world trying to fly to l A like this

298
00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:42,440
Speaker 1: is a vacation destination. I'm not trying to do anything,

299
00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:46,560
Speaker 1: especially stuff is virtual now. Even back then, I wasn't

300
00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:49,920
Speaker 1: trying to leave the crib. Got three little ones at home,

301
00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:54,440
Speaker 1: the wife, I'm like and this was one of those

302
00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:59,240
Speaker 1: rare occasions. I had a flight and I get the news,

303
00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:03,640
Speaker 1: the up, the update, the alert. I'm like, what, Like,

304
00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:06,040
Speaker 1: the first thing I did was hit refreshed. There's no

305
00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:11,200
Speaker 1: damn way Kobe Bryant's gone m hm. And it happened

306
00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:14,159
Speaker 1: in Calabasas. At the time, I was living in Studio City.

307
00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:16,520
Speaker 1: So that's just like a couple of suburbs away, a

308
00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:20,600
Speaker 1: few suburbs away, twenty minutes if you're driving fast, no

309
00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:23,280
Speaker 1: l A traffic, but not far at all. And I

310
00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:29,200
Speaker 1: lived literally under the helicopter path, Like there's this helicopter

311
00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:31,919
Speaker 1: path that takes them downtown, so Kobe o C. Orange

312
00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:34,840
Speaker 1: County takes them downtown l A. And then they fly

313
00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:37,679
Speaker 1: up the one oh one, And so I ain't live

314
00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:40,840
Speaker 1: in the hood. I'm in Studio City, but the choppers

315
00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:46,000
Speaker 1: all the time. My kids loved it because the helicopter

316
00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:48,080
Speaker 1: fly really low. My kids loved it. They were like,

317
00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:51,160
Speaker 1: oh my god, like we live on Air Force base

318
00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:53,920
Speaker 1: or something, daddy, So they loved it. And I got

319
00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:56,240
Speaker 1: the news right, Hit and refresh, Hitt and refresh is

320
00:18:56,280 --> 00:19:03,600
Speaker 1: getting worse, it's getting grim. And I was just like like,

321
00:19:03,800 --> 00:19:07,480
Speaker 1: just in such disbelief that it was like outer body.

322
00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:09,919
Speaker 1: I was in the back of the car riding the

323
00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:12,199
Speaker 1: car service to the airport, and literally I felt like

324
00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:14,720
Speaker 1: I had a passenger next to me. It was me,

325
00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:18,240
Speaker 1: me and me sitting next to each other, because one

326
00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:21,159
Speaker 1: of me was just going to the airport like all right,

327
00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:25,199
Speaker 1: business as usual, but the other me was like, this

328
00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:28,200
Speaker 1: is devastating. I'm thinking, I'm about to get on the flight.

329
00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:30,800
Speaker 1: Then of course who doesn't. I'm thinking, what are my

330
00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:33,439
Speaker 1: plane crashes? What if I leave my kids? What if

331
00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:42,640
Speaker 1: my goodbye was my real, last, final, eternal goodbye? Boy?

332
00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:48,200
Speaker 1: Stop playing and then all kind of emotions, right because

333
00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:50,960
Speaker 1: you know, it starts to get real. You go through

334
00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:54,600
Speaker 1: what the seven stages of grief, h and it starts

335
00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:59,240
Speaker 1: to get real. And one of the things that I

336
00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:03,760
Speaker 1: thought about was like, God, you imagine playing twenty years

337
00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:09,760
Speaker 1: of basketball professionally and probably dirty something your entire life.

338
00:20:10,560 --> 00:20:15,320
Speaker 1: You played a game forever to live a life in

339
00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:20,400
Speaker 1: the real world. That was that short. You played forever,

340
00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:26,159
Speaker 1: But the real world, real life, real family experience that fast.

341
00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:30,639
Speaker 1: Come on? Man. I was like for real. I was like,

342
00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:33,359
Speaker 1: life is not fair, Like we say that and we

343
00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:35,720
Speaker 1: see that but I knew that and that I was like,

344
00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:39,439
Speaker 1: that ain't right. This dude did all of that. And

345
00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:41,480
Speaker 1: then it humbled me. I was like, he did all

346
00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:44,040
Speaker 1: of that and at that level, like I played ball,

347
00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:46,960
Speaker 1: but I was not even close to the shoe strings

348
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:49,719
Speaker 1: the bottom of the shoes in terms of greatness of

349
00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:53,080
Speaker 1: a Kobe Bryant. I hung with Kobe Bryant. I knew

350
00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:57,280
Speaker 1: Kobe Bryant was like what. I was like, Damn, you

351
00:20:57,280 --> 00:21:00,080
Speaker 1: can get robbed of what you're doing all of that

352
00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:05,760
Speaker 1: basketball for You're doing all of that in sport, dedication, determination,

353
00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:08,680
Speaker 1: greatness so that you can just chill with the girls,

354
00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:12,360
Speaker 1: chill with Vanessa, chill with in life, right, and you

355
00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:15,160
Speaker 1: can't even do that. And not only can't you chill,

356
00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:19,000
Speaker 1: You're gone. I was like, oh, this is just whoa

357
00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:21,399
Speaker 1: And it just humbled me. It just put me in

358
00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:26,920
Speaker 1: my little corner emotionally. And then I was like, Wow,

359
00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:30,439
Speaker 1: my family, what if I not this time? But what

360
00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:33,720
Speaker 1: if it just I have a short lived post retirement

361
00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:36,960
Speaker 1: Like I played ball since I was eight years old.

362
00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:40,560
Speaker 1: I played twenty five years of football, and what if

363
00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:43,600
Speaker 1: I don't have twenty years of retirement? I was like, damn,

364
00:21:44,359 --> 00:21:47,159
Speaker 1: because you do not play all that ball just to

365
00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:50,720
Speaker 1: have your life end in a flash when it's over.

366
00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:55,880
Speaker 1: You do not do that for that reason. And so

367
00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:59,720
Speaker 1: my travel mindset was dark. I could be snatched for

368
00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:01,720
Speaker 1: my family, I could get on this flight never ever

369
00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:05,440
Speaker 1: make it home. And then I start thinking, like godly,

370
00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:14,760
Speaker 1: whoa all the things that Kobe Bryant meant to people,

371
00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:18,760
Speaker 1: like all the things like good, bad, and ugly, because

372
00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:21,720
Speaker 1: some people still don't like Kobe Bryant. Colorado comes to

373
00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:26,480
Speaker 1: mind for people, the attitude the black Mama. Some people

374
00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:28,639
Speaker 1: didn't like black Mama. Some people hate the black Mama.

375
00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:33,639
Speaker 1: And it made me like the analysts the broadcaster. I

376
00:22:33,680 --> 00:22:36,679
Speaker 1: got mad at myself because Kobe and I used to

377
00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:39,520
Speaker 1: laugh at this. He actually gave me props. One time.

378
00:22:39,560 --> 00:22:42,399
Speaker 1: I was at a letter game and um, we're walking

379
00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:48,000
Speaker 1: in the tunnel and he said, you know, while I

380
00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:50,879
Speaker 1: like you dog for real, because I know when I

381
00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:53,320
Speaker 1: listen to you, you're telling the truth and you're speaking

382
00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:56,360
Speaker 1: from your heart, and more importantly, you're saying it exactly

383
00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:59,159
Speaker 1: how it is, even if it doesn't feel good or

384
00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:01,639
Speaker 1: sound good. Like I've heard you say some stuff about

385
00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:05,320
Speaker 1: me and I'm like, now, he right, dog, And that

386
00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:08,280
Speaker 1: felt good. And I didn't broadcast that to the world,

387
00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:10,240
Speaker 1: and I ain't tape it. I ain't tell him to

388
00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:13,040
Speaker 1: tweet it. I was just like, Kobe, I don't hate you, dog,

389
00:23:13,119 --> 00:23:17,800
Speaker 1: But I did catch Kobe kind of coming down to hell.

390
00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:22,200
Speaker 1: Pete powers like Kobe Achilles, Kobe shoulder, Kobe hurt all

391
00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:26,040
Speaker 1: the time, Kobe big contract not necessarily the same. So

392
00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:28,640
Speaker 1: I was like, damn, why do I have a job

393
00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:31,119
Speaker 1: that I gotta be critical as somebody that I praised.

394
00:23:32,200 --> 00:23:35,440
Speaker 1: I really love Kobe Bryant, but my job didn't want

395
00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:38,000
Speaker 1: me to say always I love Kobe Bryant because what

396
00:23:38,080 --> 00:23:42,760
Speaker 1: I saw wasn't always something that fans loved. So I

397
00:23:42,800 --> 00:23:44,440
Speaker 1: had to keep it real because that's just how I'm built,

398
00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:48,040
Speaker 1: y'all know me. And in that moment it kind of

399
00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:50,720
Speaker 1: washed me away. I was like, man, I should have

400
00:23:50,760 --> 00:23:54,120
Speaker 1: never said a bad word about that guy. Of course

401
00:23:54,160 --> 00:23:55,920
Speaker 1: I wouldn't have had a job, but I mean I

402
00:23:55,960 --> 00:23:58,320
Speaker 1: wouldn't have been respected in my job. Kobe would have

403
00:23:58,320 --> 00:23:59,800
Speaker 1: never pulled me to the side and talk to me

404
00:23:59,840 --> 00:24:03,159
Speaker 1: like he did and always give me love. But I

405
00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:10,080
Speaker 1: felt weird, man felt really weird. Rest In paradise, Rest

406
00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:13,960
Speaker 1: in peace, just rest man and um, I don't think

407
00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:18,320
Speaker 1: that this world would ever ever feel that void that

408
00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:23,040
Speaker 1: Kobe Bryant left for many reasons. You saw those grown men,

409
00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:27,639
Speaker 1: grown athletes crying from Michael Jordanan's down. Ain't nobody faking

410
00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:32,240
Speaker 1: that shock, Nobody faking that that's real? That is real.

411
00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:37,520
Speaker 1: Much love to the mama speaking of something that's real.

412
00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:46,840
Speaker 1: Oh my goodness. Uh the Tyree Nichols who video and

413
00:24:47,040 --> 00:24:53,199
Speaker 1: killing m hmm, here we go. Uh, this is a

414
00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:56,119
Speaker 1: huge story. The only way it could have been a

415
00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:59,959
Speaker 1: bigger story is obviously, y'all know if the five cops

416
00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:04,159
Speaker 1: weren't black but actually white, Rodney King two point oh

417
00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:06,080
Speaker 1: would have made this even bigger. And I'm not trying

418
00:25:06,119 --> 00:25:08,800
Speaker 1: to make it bigger, but one of the things that

419
00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:13,200
Speaker 1: jumps off the screen is like, Wow, how brutal, how

420
00:25:13,320 --> 00:25:20,880
Speaker 1: inhumane and worse worse and I say worse, his own

421
00:25:21,040 --> 00:25:23,120
Speaker 1: people did that to him. Let me tell you why

422
00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:33,520
Speaker 1: that's worse. It's worse because in this respect, a lot

423
00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:37,920
Speaker 1: of people always want to blame being a police officer

424
00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:41,520
Speaker 1: and want to racialize it. A lot of people want

425
00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:45,840
Speaker 1: to look at and politicizing they don't want to humanize it, right.

426
00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:51,480
Speaker 1: They want to say those people were acting because they're

427
00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:55,440
Speaker 1: part of the blue race, right there, cops, And this

428
00:25:55,520 --> 00:25:59,960
Speaker 1: is why this one is worse, because now you're stuff.

429
00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:04,280
Speaker 1: You don't have the answers. It's not convenient. I think

430
00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:10,480
Speaker 1: it was worse because this allowed shrapnel, asteroids, pieces to

431
00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:14,040
Speaker 1: just go everywhere, and you saw people taking this everywhere.

432
00:26:15,040 --> 00:26:19,840
Speaker 1: If this was neiter, this might have sounded better. But

433
00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:24,520
Speaker 1: I'm glad it wasn't. I'm glad this was oh black

434
00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:28,880
Speaker 1: on black, as they say, right, I'm gonna tell you why,

435
00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:32,040
Speaker 1: because now we really got to identify what's the real problem. Right,

436
00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:35,080
Speaker 1: Is it because they're blue in terms of being cops?

437
00:26:35,119 --> 00:26:38,320
Speaker 1: Just a culture or is it just a greater culture?

438
00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:44,000
Speaker 1: In conversation over race, culture versus race, let's get there.

439
00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:47,600
Speaker 1: I've always talked about the importance of culture. I'm not

440
00:26:47,640 --> 00:26:51,360
Speaker 1: into the race conversation, not that not because it doesn't exist.

441
00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:56,160
Speaker 1: I'm not into it because it's not the greatest hurdle

442
00:26:57,000 --> 00:27:01,440
Speaker 1: in its existence. The greater hurd for anybody, I don't

443
00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:07,040
Speaker 1: care what your skin color is, is your culture, your surroundings,

444
00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:12,000
Speaker 1: your conditions, your class, all of those things to me

445
00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:18,800
Speaker 1: proceed and supersede race. Don't believe me. Exhibit A this

446
00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:21,160
Speaker 1: story right here. So now we got to really dig

447
00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:25,440
Speaker 1: into the culture, not just black culture, but police culture.

448
00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:31,199
Speaker 1: Let's talk about police culture. Because this unit wasn't a

449
00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:34,919
Speaker 1: normal unit. This wasn't just five random cops. This was

450
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:38,600
Speaker 1: the Scorpion Unit. And I've noticed this, whether it's training

451
00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:44,040
Speaker 1: day or in real life doing real cops are part

452
00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:50,240
Speaker 1: of special tactic units, the tactic squad, right, swap team,

453
00:27:50,280 --> 00:27:53,879
Speaker 1: all the way down to the Scorpion Unit. And a

454
00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:57,040
Speaker 1: lot of times when you talk about these special tactical units,

455
00:27:58,640 --> 00:28:01,760
Speaker 1: they're always put in place because of the city's homicide

456
00:28:01,840 --> 00:28:06,240
Speaker 1: rate is soaring, some condition where okay, we gotta really

457
00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:08,760
Speaker 1: lay into this, we gotta really come down with a

458
00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:13,320
Speaker 1: heavy hand, and it usually turns into a bad scene

459
00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:17,600
Speaker 1: out of training day because what occurs increase use of

460
00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:24,320
Speaker 1: force and decrease public trusts. Increase use of force and

461
00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:29,120
Speaker 1: you decrease the public's trust. So the Scorpion units right

462
00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:33,720
Speaker 1: already been accused of assault before. Inmates have come out

463
00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:36,360
Speaker 1: before and says something about the Scorpion Unit. But hey,

464
00:28:38,520 --> 00:28:44,040
Speaker 1: you see this video and you realize they're not cops,

465
00:28:45,200 --> 00:28:49,520
Speaker 1: not exclusively. This is a gang. This is a gang.

466
00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:54,160
Speaker 1: Whether it was Rodney King, those aren't cops. That's a gang.

467
00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:58,240
Speaker 1: Five white cops ganging up on Rodney King and beating

468
00:28:58,320 --> 00:29:03,400
Speaker 1: them almost to death. The Scorpion Unit black cops. This

469
00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:08,959
Speaker 1: is a gang beating them to death. What is going on?

470
00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:14,040
Speaker 1: What's really at play here? We've heard it all. Oh cops,

471
00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:17,200
Speaker 1: ain't nothing but the guys who couldn't make varsity, the

472
00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:20,160
Speaker 1: guys who couldn't really flex in high school. Oh cops

473
00:29:20,200 --> 00:29:23,400
Speaker 1: ain't no, no, no, don't do that. That's lazy y'all.

474
00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:27,680
Speaker 1: That's something, But that's not all. What's that play right here?

475
00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:30,920
Speaker 1: Is that when you get conditioned to be a cop,

476
00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:37,360
Speaker 1: you gotta talk about the conditioning. Cops in terms of

477
00:29:37,400 --> 00:29:43,360
Speaker 1: their brain perception, become magnets to negativity. They have to

478
00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:47,160
Speaker 1: look for the bad things every single day, in every

479
00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:50,040
Speaker 1: single way, even though a lot of their daily hours

480
00:29:50,040 --> 00:29:55,160
Speaker 1: are spent let's just saying um in a different world.

481
00:29:55,240 --> 00:29:58,880
Speaker 1: In terms of vocation, it's not always armed robberies, it's

482
00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:04,640
Speaker 1: not always right. Sometimes just traffic stops right, which can

483
00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:08,680
Speaker 1: be deadly. Though, and think about that level of anxiety

484
00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:13,960
Speaker 1: and apprehension. Every time a cop checks in, logs in

485
00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:19,280
Speaker 1: for his eight hours. I'm not gonna make them sympathetic

486
00:30:19,320 --> 00:30:22,720
Speaker 1: in this moment because I think that that would be insensitive.

487
00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:26,160
Speaker 1: But we gotta go through these steps so we can

488
00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:31,440
Speaker 1: understand what's really at play. So you got someone who

489
00:30:31,440 --> 00:30:38,760
Speaker 1: has heightened awareness for the negative. Their suspicions are validated

490
00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:42,880
Speaker 1: every single day in every single way. They look for bad,

491
00:30:43,040 --> 00:30:46,400
Speaker 1: they see bad, they think bad, they react to bad.

492
00:30:48,840 --> 00:30:50,960
Speaker 1: Even the traffic stop is a bad thing, right, you

493
00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:54,120
Speaker 1: did something wrong. You could be sitting there with your

494
00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:56,600
Speaker 1: hands on ten and two and turn down your radio

495
00:30:56,640 --> 00:30:59,000
Speaker 1: and roll down your window and act like you the

496
00:30:59,080 --> 00:31:03,440
Speaker 1: old lady that just didn't see that red light. But

497
00:31:03,520 --> 00:31:07,560
Speaker 1: to a cop, you may have a weapon. So this

498
00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:12,080
Speaker 1: is their conditioning, and they're holding their breath every time

499
00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:13,719
Speaker 1: they come to your car. They don't want to talk

500
00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:15,680
Speaker 1: about it because they're supposed to be tough, they're supposed

501
00:31:15,720 --> 00:31:19,360
Speaker 1: to be the authority. But that's what they're feeling. Meanwhile,

502
00:31:19,440 --> 00:31:22,080
Speaker 1: what are we feeling? Where the citizens? Where the civilians?

503
00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:27,240
Speaker 1: We're sitting there like, I hope I got a good cop.

504
00:31:27,400 --> 00:31:34,400
Speaker 1: Right because of that lack of public trust, you're sitting there, like,

505
00:31:35,320 --> 00:31:36,920
Speaker 1: I hope he doesn't have a bad day. I hope

506
00:31:36,920 --> 00:31:39,240
Speaker 1: he's not having a bad day, right, because of that

507
00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:45,000
Speaker 1: lack of public trust. And now we're playing percentages, right,

508
00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:48,800
Speaker 1: cop is calculating the odds of this person actually being

509
00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:53,400
Speaker 1: someone who has a gun and would actually use it,

510
00:31:53,440 --> 00:31:57,880
Speaker 1: doesn't respect quote unquote the authority of my badge, And

511
00:31:57,920 --> 00:32:00,120
Speaker 1: we're running the same percentages. What's the odds of this

512
00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:03,640
Speaker 1: being just a good cop versus one of those road cops.

513
00:32:05,040 --> 00:32:07,320
Speaker 1: And we're both playing on the margins, we're both playing

514
00:32:07,360 --> 00:32:10,680
Speaker 1: on the extremes because the chances of you getting that

515
00:32:10,760 --> 00:32:16,480
Speaker 1: training day cop slim, but not none, but slim. And

516
00:32:16,520 --> 00:32:18,320
Speaker 1: the chances of you being the one that got the

517
00:32:18,360 --> 00:32:25,080
Speaker 1: strap underneath the car seat like cousin Harold, slim but

518
00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:29,080
Speaker 1: not none. This is a dangerous place to be, y'all,

519
00:32:30,400 --> 00:32:35,240
Speaker 1: very dangerous place. That's why we need police reform and

520
00:32:35,280 --> 00:32:39,320
Speaker 1: we need citizen reform. Yeah, I said it. Police reform

521
00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:43,880
Speaker 1: is pretty obvious, but it's not gonna work fully because

522
00:32:43,880 --> 00:32:47,920
Speaker 1: of the psychology of the job. Like you know, we

523
00:32:47,920 --> 00:32:50,000
Speaker 1: always talk about football players and y'all got a little

524
00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:53,600
Speaker 1: something off, like y'all a little crazy something about being

525
00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:55,600
Speaker 1: a cop, whether you walk into it that way or

526
00:32:55,640 --> 00:32:58,760
Speaker 1: you're gonna leave this way. You just gotta look at

527
00:32:58,880 --> 00:33:06,080
Speaker 1: life through ends of negativity. They don't trust us. And

528
00:33:06,120 --> 00:33:08,760
Speaker 1: then when we look at cops because of all these incidents,

529
00:33:09,960 --> 00:33:12,360
Speaker 1: and I don't want to blow him out of proportion,

530
00:33:12,440 --> 00:33:17,400
Speaker 1: because most cops are great, are good, Most citizens that

531
00:33:17,440 --> 00:33:20,480
Speaker 1: get pulled over are great or good. But we are

532
00:33:20,520 --> 00:33:25,959
Speaker 1: talking about the margins the extremes. How do we reconcile this?

533
00:33:26,600 --> 00:33:31,000
Speaker 1: How do we resolve this? Who hasn't been pulled over?

534
00:33:31,040 --> 00:33:34,440
Speaker 1: I have? Who hasn't held their birth I have? And

535
00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:39,080
Speaker 1: it wasn't because of my race? And why wasn't it

536
00:33:39,120 --> 00:33:41,120
Speaker 1: because of my race? Because I've been pulled over by

537
00:33:41,160 --> 00:33:46,240
Speaker 1: black cops before. The worst instance, the worst example ever

538
00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:49,240
Speaker 1: have of a police encounter was actually with a black cop.

539
00:33:50,040 --> 00:33:52,120
Speaker 1: And I know James Baldwin talked about that, how the

540
00:33:52,160 --> 00:33:55,160
Speaker 1: black cop has to prove that he's not like the

541
00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:59,520
Speaker 1: black citizen or the black person he's pulling over, so

542
00:33:59,600 --> 00:34:02,400
Speaker 1: he tried extra hard, goes a hundred and ten percent

543
00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:06,479
Speaker 1: for the force in the blue badge. And I can

544
00:34:06,520 --> 00:34:09,799
Speaker 1: see some of that, But what I always used as

545
00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:13,080
Speaker 1: my mindset is I'm playing percentages and I'm not gonna

546
00:34:13,120 --> 00:34:19,400
Speaker 1: give them any inkling, any anything to think that I

547
00:34:19,440 --> 00:34:24,279
Speaker 1: am over here trying to go rogue. I am compliant.

548
00:34:24,640 --> 00:34:27,279
Speaker 1: Call me a punk, call me someone who doesn't know

549
00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:29,600
Speaker 1: their rights. I know my rights. And I got the

550
00:34:29,680 --> 00:34:32,440
Speaker 1: right to stay alive, and I got the right to

551
00:34:32,560 --> 00:34:37,359
Speaker 1: remain silent. I got the right to comply. I got

552
00:34:37,360 --> 00:34:40,080
Speaker 1: the right to not have a day on the concrete

553
00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:42,759
Speaker 1: but a day in court. And you can call me

554
00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:47,560
Speaker 1: any name you want, but call me alive. And it

555
00:34:47,600 --> 00:34:51,400
Speaker 1: doesn't always go that neatly. It doesn't always go that

556
00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:54,120
Speaker 1: way for everybody. Right, you can comply and still get killed.

557
00:34:54,560 --> 00:34:58,920
Speaker 1: Oh and let's be real, and that's the narrative for

558
00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:02,120
Speaker 1: white people that get pulled over. You can can you

559
00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:05,839
Speaker 1: can resist, you can be disruptive, you could be uncle

560
00:35:05,880 --> 00:35:10,000
Speaker 1: operative and still survive. And we've seen that go both ways.

561
00:35:10,040 --> 00:35:15,120
Speaker 1: But we know what the narrative says. This was just bad,

562
00:35:15,320 --> 00:35:22,560
Speaker 1: how brutal it was. Uh, not going into the details,

563
00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:25,080
Speaker 1: because I think they're still developing. I've seen the video.

564
00:35:26,560 --> 00:35:34,120
Speaker 1: Who hasn't seen the video, who doesn't have a kid, son, daughter,

565
00:35:34,239 --> 00:35:38,080
Speaker 1: especially me, young black son obviously big boy, my son

566
00:35:38,239 --> 00:35:44,240
Speaker 1: is seven. He looks ten, plays ball like he's twelve,

567
00:35:44,640 --> 00:35:50,480
Speaker 1: little beast, and I look at him, and you have

568
00:35:50,640 --> 00:35:56,640
Speaker 1: those conflicting thoughts. The narrative, the reality wants to grab

569
00:35:56,680 --> 00:35:59,239
Speaker 1: me and say, Mark saw us look out for that

570
00:35:59,320 --> 00:36:03,920
Speaker 1: boy and give him speech. Then my reality kicks in

571
00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:05,960
Speaker 1: and says, I don't give a damn if your son

572
00:36:06,120 --> 00:36:07,719
Speaker 1: wasn't black. I don't give it damn. If your son

573
00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:10,239
Speaker 1: wasn't black or big, I don't give a damn. Your

574
00:36:10,280 --> 00:36:17,480
Speaker 1: son wasn't black or big, or cooperative or a good

575
00:36:17,560 --> 00:36:29,759
Speaker 1: kid of character. M what do you do? I'm telling

576
00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:35,960
Speaker 1: my son always try his damness by percentages, and we

577
00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:39,200
Speaker 1: know his parents. This is not even to not get

578
00:36:39,200 --> 00:36:44,279
Speaker 1: in trouble. But as I speak as a former thief YEP,

579
00:36:45,040 --> 00:36:49,839
Speaker 1: a guy who has committed assault before, the guy who's

580
00:36:49,840 --> 00:36:54,319
Speaker 1: found himself in fire but never got burnt, thankfully by

581
00:36:54,360 --> 00:36:59,359
Speaker 1: grace and mercy, I'm not betting on even for my son.

582
00:36:59,520 --> 00:37:07,680
Speaker 1: So in no extreme moments, those margins, those few instances,

583
00:37:07,719 --> 00:37:09,920
Speaker 1: there can't be deeper prayers you have for your child,

584
00:37:11,200 --> 00:37:19,040
Speaker 1: especially if the narrative it's true to those cops that

585
00:37:19,080 --> 00:37:24,800
Speaker 1: pull him over at that time that he sees someone

586
00:37:24,840 --> 00:37:31,839
Speaker 1: who's more violent in my son? If he generalizes my son,

587
00:37:33,080 --> 00:37:38,680
Speaker 1: and if my son generalizes police officers, that is a

588
00:37:38,680 --> 00:37:43,359
Speaker 1: collision course that can end up in death. And we've

589
00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:46,960
Speaker 1: seen it all too often. What has it been thirty

590
00:37:48,719 --> 00:37:52,239
Speaker 1: thirty years since that Rodney King incident in l A.

591
00:37:52,360 --> 00:38:00,480
Speaker 1: Riots and I lived through that. Tanks, tanks, tanks on

592
00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:06,000
Speaker 1: my street, going down the neighborhood, arson everywhere, everything burning up,

593
00:38:07,560 --> 00:38:12,319
Speaker 1: store owners, neighbors, guns on their roof, guns walking down

594
00:38:12,320 --> 00:38:16,839
Speaker 1: the street. I walked into a story five seconds after

595
00:38:16,880 --> 00:38:26,080
Speaker 1: walking off, walking away, boom lit up. What's gonna happen

596
00:38:26,120 --> 00:38:34,239
Speaker 1: with these situations, unfortunately, is an imperfect pill that we

597
00:38:34,320 --> 00:38:37,160
Speaker 1: all have to swallow, and I don't want to have

598
00:38:37,200 --> 00:38:40,360
Speaker 1: to swallow that pill, but I do know there's a

599
00:38:40,440 --> 00:38:43,720
Speaker 1: way to navigate that gives you the best percentage chance

600
00:38:43,880 --> 00:38:47,800
Speaker 1: to surviving. And you would think that in the world,

601
00:38:48,960 --> 00:38:51,560
Speaker 1: you should be able to say, for a hundred percent

602
00:38:51,680 --> 00:38:58,000
Speaker 1: of the times I would survive getting pulled over, But

603
00:38:58,120 --> 00:39:04,000
Speaker 1: that's not the case. You want to know why, because

604
00:39:04,040 --> 00:39:07,480
Speaker 1: who got pulled over is not perfect, and who pulled

605
00:39:07,520 --> 00:39:12,879
Speaker 1: you over is not perfect, And if anything gets out

606
00:39:12,880 --> 00:39:20,719
Speaker 1: of place in that anxiety field, stressful moment of those interactions,

607
00:39:20,719 --> 00:39:24,120
Speaker 1: and we see it, right, you take off, you're not complying.

608
00:39:24,320 --> 00:39:28,160
Speaker 1: Oh strike one. Uh, he's coming in hot with with

609
00:39:28,239 --> 00:39:31,319
Speaker 1: an attitude against you for whatever reason. Oh strike one,

610
00:39:31,400 --> 00:39:38,680
Speaker 1: strike two. Like it's so hard, right, Some cops just started,

611
00:39:39,080 --> 00:39:42,239
Speaker 1: some some people get pulled over, just started. But no

612
00:39:42,280 --> 00:39:44,920
Speaker 1: one should lose their life over it. But if you

613
00:39:44,960 --> 00:39:49,480
Speaker 1: look at all the mental dynamics that play with imperfect beings,

614
00:39:50,840 --> 00:39:52,880
Speaker 1: that is not how you roll the dice. That is

615
00:39:52,920 --> 00:39:56,319
Speaker 1: not how you play the game. That is not how

616
00:39:56,360 --> 00:40:00,960
Speaker 1: you have a winning hand. So so far, so so blessed.

617
00:40:01,600 --> 00:40:04,000
Speaker 1: But I can't lie. I have anxiety all the time.

618
00:40:04,280 --> 00:40:07,200
Speaker 1: And it's not because of a narrative, because of the reality.

619
00:40:07,280 --> 00:40:10,439
Speaker 1: No matter how you formed the conversation, no how now,

620
00:40:10,440 --> 00:40:14,040
Speaker 1: no matter how much you've talked police reform or citizen trust,

621
00:40:14,239 --> 00:40:17,360
Speaker 1: no matter how you say all of these things, it

622
00:40:17,440 --> 00:40:21,399
Speaker 1: doesn't just add up to everyone being safe. And that's

623
00:40:21,440 --> 00:40:29,600
Speaker 1: what's most disturbing. That's what's most disturbing. Okay, I gotta

624
00:40:29,600 --> 00:40:31,399
Speaker 1: get out of this place, right. A lot of dark

625
00:40:31,440 --> 00:40:34,320
Speaker 1: stories right now, let's like, no, let's talk about my ex.

626
00:40:34,840 --> 00:40:38,600
Speaker 1: Excuse me, my ex ish man. People been hitting me up,

627
00:40:38,600 --> 00:40:43,600
Speaker 1: and I've been seeing it my exes out there tripping, uh,

628
00:40:43,719 --> 00:40:49,680
Speaker 1: Jason Whitlock, Emmanuel. I show my guys they're always gonna

629
00:40:49,680 --> 00:40:51,200
Speaker 1: be my friends, even if they get mad at me,

630
00:40:51,239 --> 00:40:56,000
Speaker 1: but they know me. I talk about everybody with the

631
00:40:56,040 --> 00:40:58,920
Speaker 1: same amount of truth. And if you're my friend, I

632
00:40:59,160 --> 00:41:01,719
Speaker 1: really talk about you because we're the home. You know

633
00:41:01,800 --> 00:41:05,319
Speaker 1: me better than them. Let's talk about what's going on

634
00:41:05,480 --> 00:41:07,840
Speaker 1: right now, because this is a thing. You can't google

635
00:41:07,880 --> 00:41:10,600
Speaker 1: their names without me popping up. Oh, pretty fat faced

636
00:41:10,600 --> 00:41:15,160
Speaker 1: image of me. Hey buddy, oh man, and vice versa.

637
00:41:15,719 --> 00:41:18,759
Speaker 1: Like you google their names, here, I go, hey buddy, right,

638
00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:22,800
Speaker 1: oh man. But everybody hits me up publicly and privately

639
00:41:22,840 --> 00:41:28,320
Speaker 1: as well. Right. I know so many famous people that

640
00:41:28,480 --> 00:41:30,560
Speaker 1: you're hitting me up talking about what's up with your boy?

641
00:41:30,640 --> 00:41:33,759
Speaker 1: What's up with your boy? They ain't tweeting that out

642
00:41:34,560 --> 00:41:38,320
Speaker 1: and we go there, Oh man, Let's talk about it

643
00:41:38,760 --> 00:41:42,240
Speaker 1: because my last four years at Fox, I took strays

644
00:41:42,360 --> 00:41:46,680
Speaker 1: for my boys, and I'm sure they took strays from me.

645
00:41:47,520 --> 00:41:51,000
Speaker 1: Everybody didn't like my Black Lives matter. Uh, well, you

646
00:41:51,120 --> 00:41:56,839
Speaker 1: call that response, but you know me. I don't come

647
00:41:56,840 --> 00:42:00,200
Speaker 1: with hate. They only say I'm a hater because tell

648
00:42:00,239 --> 00:42:02,440
Speaker 1: the truth too early. That's the only reason I get

649
00:42:02,440 --> 00:42:05,320
Speaker 1: called a hater, and not everybody like my Colin Kaepernick

650
00:42:05,719 --> 00:42:08,279
Speaker 1: takes and still don't. But if you listen to me,

651
00:42:08,440 --> 00:42:09,920
Speaker 1: I had so many people come up to me when

652
00:42:09,920 --> 00:42:11,640
Speaker 1: I'm in public. They'd be like, man, I used to

653
00:42:11,640 --> 00:42:14,680
Speaker 1: hate your ass because I'm like, why are you how's

654
00:42:14,719 --> 00:42:17,319
Speaker 1: this conversation going? I hate you, homie, I just hate

655
00:42:17,320 --> 00:42:19,399
Speaker 1: you blood. I'm like what? And then they'd be like,

656
00:42:19,760 --> 00:42:22,359
Speaker 1: but I started listening to you for real. I hear you,

657
00:42:22,440 --> 00:42:26,000
Speaker 1: I hear you, I feel you, Like, okay, we goold like.

658
00:42:26,520 --> 00:42:28,319
Speaker 1: I don't come from hate, man, I just don't. I

659
00:42:28,400 --> 00:42:32,040
Speaker 1: come from real though. But my co hosts have taken

660
00:42:32,040 --> 00:42:35,560
Speaker 1: strays for me before, as I'm taking strays for them

661
00:42:35,640 --> 00:42:38,319
Speaker 1: right now. God damn, y'all, calm down, let's talk about it.

662
00:42:38,400 --> 00:42:40,440
Speaker 1: Um Van let them another one of my boys, but

663
00:42:40,480 --> 00:42:42,920
Speaker 1: not a co host. I've been on his podcast before

664
00:42:43,160 --> 00:42:47,640
Speaker 1: where we had an uncomfortable conversation. We went there and

665
00:42:47,680 --> 00:42:51,120
Speaker 1: I didn't shy away from it. He didn't shy away

666
00:42:51,160 --> 00:42:54,319
Speaker 1: from it. We didn't beef. We still talk on the

667
00:42:54,360 --> 00:42:57,520
Speaker 1: phone in person, go to each other's parties, et cetera.

668
00:42:58,400 --> 00:43:02,719
Speaker 1: That's discord, right, that's public discourse and private home. He

669
00:43:02,880 --> 00:43:06,400
Speaker 1: talk like, dog, I'm not about to lose my friend

670
00:43:06,880 --> 00:43:12,040
Speaker 1: over some conversation. And if I do, I want the

671
00:43:12,120 --> 00:43:18,960
Speaker 1: right conversation obviously, right, like we're talking about things outside

672
00:43:18,960 --> 00:43:22,200
Speaker 1: of us and we're having a conversation. So Van length

673
00:43:22,239 --> 00:43:26,000
Speaker 1: and interviews and Manuel, let's start without you and that interview.

674
00:43:26,480 --> 00:43:30,880
Speaker 1: Just then wanted to go in and Acho wanted to

675
00:43:30,920 --> 00:43:33,040
Speaker 1: get out. That's the simplest way I can say it,

676
00:43:33,760 --> 00:43:36,520
Speaker 1: get and I have. Van was like I'm going in

677
00:43:36,880 --> 00:43:40,560
Speaker 1: and that's what that was, right, And I'm like, okay,

678
00:43:40,600 --> 00:43:43,279
Speaker 1: but you can't go out. You can't get out. You

679
00:43:43,320 --> 00:43:49,040
Speaker 1: gotta stay here because you're there. And Vans like, I'm

680
00:43:49,040 --> 00:43:51,160
Speaker 1: going in and I'm coming in hot. Van was in

681
00:43:51,239 --> 00:43:53,319
Speaker 1: goal line defense, even on the fifth yard line. He

682
00:43:53,400 --> 00:43:56,719
Speaker 1: was like um um and Acho was like yo, I

683
00:43:56,760 --> 00:43:59,799
Speaker 1: want to play for next ball or you know, just

684
00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:04,399
Speaker 1: all time out. And the way I felt watching it,

685
00:44:04,520 --> 00:44:08,439
Speaker 1: I was like entertaining. But God, they left a lot

686
00:44:08,520 --> 00:44:11,160
Speaker 1: of meat on that bone because I Chow wasn't a

687
00:44:11,160 --> 00:44:14,839
Speaker 1: willing participant. He said, uh, I wasn't prepared for this,

688
00:44:14,960 --> 00:44:17,800
Speaker 1: you know. The publicist notes and what we're really supposed

689
00:44:17,800 --> 00:44:22,680
Speaker 1: to talk about. Yeah, but right, the butt is I

690
00:44:22,840 --> 00:44:26,360
Speaker 1: chow as an orator. That dude can talk talk and

691
00:44:26,480 --> 00:44:31,000
Speaker 1: he's smart, so he could have figured it out. First

692
00:44:31,000 --> 00:44:32,560
Speaker 1: of all, I don't even do that, but I chose

693
00:44:32,560 --> 00:44:34,560
Speaker 1: a brand. He ain't like me. I ain't got no

694
00:44:34,680 --> 00:44:37,520
Speaker 1: whole team, Like, give me every question or what we're

695
00:44:37,520 --> 00:44:38,880
Speaker 1: gonna talk about, and you can tell me what we're

696
00:44:38,920 --> 00:44:40,680
Speaker 1: talking about. I don't give it that what you say,

697
00:44:40,960 --> 00:44:43,439
Speaker 1: whatever you ask in my answer because it ain't that hard.

698
00:44:43,480 --> 00:44:47,120
Speaker 1: I'm sophisticated, right, And if you're sophisticated, I chow sophisticated,

699
00:44:47,160 --> 00:44:50,439
Speaker 1: get through it, but don't be dismissive. And I thought

700
00:44:50,560 --> 00:44:53,319
Speaker 1: that was bad because I cho could have he could

701
00:44:53,360 --> 00:44:58,400
Speaker 1: have played Vans roll up and still got what he

702
00:44:58,440 --> 00:45:00,560
Speaker 1: wanted out of it and then hip and then they

703
00:45:00,560 --> 00:45:03,719
Speaker 1: wouldn't have this beef on Twitter now. But they have

704
00:45:03,800 --> 00:45:06,960
Speaker 1: this beef on Twitter now, and I'm all in it, right,

705
00:45:07,239 --> 00:45:09,040
Speaker 1: And so I'm sitting there seeing tweet at the tweet

706
00:45:09,080 --> 00:45:12,560
Speaker 1: and I'm like, damn, that's funny. Oh damn, that's gangster. Damn.

707
00:45:12,640 --> 00:45:14,440
Speaker 1: I want to like that one. And then I was like,

708
00:45:15,480 --> 00:45:17,560
Speaker 1: I gotta do it. You gotta be me, you know

709
00:45:17,600 --> 00:45:20,919
Speaker 1: what I mean, that's between them. I'm not picking a side.

710
00:45:20,960 --> 00:45:24,200
Speaker 1: I'm just going with where the truth takes me. Right. Well,

711
00:45:24,239 --> 00:45:26,400
Speaker 1: I'm sitting there, I'm like, damn, why don't y'all do

712
00:45:26,480 --> 00:45:28,480
Speaker 1: this when y'all are in front of each other? But

713
00:45:29,880 --> 00:45:32,879
Speaker 1: Accho probably felt like VAM, you're over committing to one thing,

714
00:45:33,120 --> 00:45:36,560
Speaker 1: and these uncomfortable conversations. Man, it's like, I'm being authentic

715
00:45:36,600 --> 00:45:38,160
Speaker 1: when you ain't here, I hate on your ass when

716
00:45:38,160 --> 00:45:41,239
Speaker 1: you here, I'm coming in and I'm going in. I

717
00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:45,000
Speaker 1: chose like, all right, I'm goun't prepared for this, so

718
00:45:45,080 --> 00:45:48,200
Speaker 1: I'm not going there. But I wish they would have

719
00:45:48,239 --> 00:45:51,880
Speaker 1: went there, because if anything is an uncomfortable conversation with

720
00:45:51,920 --> 00:45:55,200
Speaker 1: a black man, it is two black men having an

721
00:45:55,239 --> 00:45:59,840
Speaker 1: uncomfortable conversation, right, one Nigerian American and one van Lathen

722
00:46:00,239 --> 00:46:03,920
Speaker 1: wherever you want to call him a Louisianian. Right, they

723
00:46:03,920 --> 00:46:07,360
Speaker 1: should have went there. Damn. White people are so scared

724
00:46:07,560 --> 00:46:11,160
Speaker 1: these days to go at it. We learned from that

725
00:46:11,160 --> 00:46:15,080
Speaker 1: that onion makes you cry. But bore them layers. You

726
00:46:15,120 --> 00:46:18,920
Speaker 1: gotta pull them back. They're tasty, man. That's the that's

727
00:46:18,960 --> 00:46:22,440
Speaker 1: the right seasoning and the right spices. You need to

728
00:46:22,440 --> 00:46:26,560
Speaker 1: go beyond these meat and potato binary conversations we keep having.

729
00:46:27,280 --> 00:46:29,279
Speaker 1: But that was interesting because I know everybody got caught

730
00:46:29,320 --> 00:46:32,320
Speaker 1: up in that, and I got obviously part of that wash.

731
00:46:33,239 --> 00:46:39,759
Speaker 1: Um I'm not taking a side. Um Van went there

732
00:46:40,160 --> 00:46:43,799
Speaker 1: emotional Butler's gang stuff. I should. I wish I had

733
00:46:43,880 --> 00:46:48,440
Speaker 1: that as wiley as the first. UMO handed himself with class,

734
00:46:48,600 --> 00:46:51,200
Speaker 1: you know. But sometimes, and I'm guilty of this, that

735
00:46:51,280 --> 00:46:55,640
Speaker 1: high road ship ain't for everybody. Man, funk that tell

736
00:46:55,719 --> 00:46:59,840
Speaker 1: that for what you feel like. I'm classy too, But

737
00:47:01,040 --> 00:47:04,000
Speaker 1: I guess the root of class is asked, and I'm

738
00:47:04,040 --> 00:47:06,279
Speaker 1: gonna show you. You showing your ass, I'm gonna show

739
00:47:06,280 --> 00:47:08,239
Speaker 1: my ass. I show should have showed his ass, because

740
00:47:08,239 --> 00:47:10,279
Speaker 1: I think he could have had a better conversation. He

741
00:47:10,400 --> 00:47:12,160
Speaker 1: came out of that and now y'all lighten them up,

742
00:47:12,760 --> 00:47:15,880
Speaker 1: and I don't think that's appropriate, but I think he

743
00:47:16,400 --> 00:47:18,279
Speaker 1: asked for it. When you don't want to go there,

744
00:47:18,800 --> 00:47:20,600
Speaker 1: you know what they say, you keep your mouth closed,

745
00:47:20,640 --> 00:47:23,239
Speaker 1: we're gonna as soon and they're gonna make an ass

746
00:47:23,239 --> 00:47:25,600
Speaker 1: out of you. Hand me so and they're making the

747
00:47:25,680 --> 00:47:27,880
Speaker 1: ass out of you and they're trying to throw me

748
00:47:27,920 --> 00:47:31,279
Speaker 1: in it. Trust me, I know what you're doing and

749
00:47:31,320 --> 00:47:33,000
Speaker 1: I know why y'all feel that way. But my other

750
00:47:33,040 --> 00:47:37,680
Speaker 1: co host before um, Jason Whitlock, another one of the

751
00:47:37,719 --> 00:47:41,439
Speaker 1: guys that privately is the homie. I know y'all don't

752
00:47:41,480 --> 00:47:43,880
Speaker 1: like Whitlock. Some of y'all. I know a lot of

753
00:47:43,920 --> 00:47:47,040
Speaker 1: y'all love Whitlock. Trust me, I get both. So if

754
00:47:47,120 --> 00:47:48,960
Speaker 1: you don't like Whitlock, you don't get all the love

755
00:47:49,000 --> 00:47:51,320
Speaker 1: Winlock gets because you don't like them, and the algorithm

756
00:47:51,440 --> 00:47:53,919
Speaker 1: is rigging it for you. And if you love with Lock,

757
00:47:54,040 --> 00:47:56,280
Speaker 1: then you don't know how many people hate them, probably

758
00:47:56,400 --> 00:47:58,640
Speaker 1: or you do because we're like always talks about it.

759
00:47:58,760 --> 00:48:01,080
Speaker 1: But the algorithm is rigging it for you too, right,

760
00:48:01,400 --> 00:48:03,120
Speaker 1: giving you more of what you want, keeping you in

761
00:48:03,120 --> 00:48:07,920
Speaker 1: your echo chamber teen message. I'm in the middle of

762
00:48:07,960 --> 00:48:10,480
Speaker 1: it because I'm like, I agree with this, I agree

763
00:48:10,480 --> 00:48:13,319
Speaker 1: with this, I agree with this. Watching Fearless, Oh man,

764
00:48:13,360 --> 00:48:15,120
Speaker 1: why do you say that? Why do you say that? Oh?

765
00:48:15,160 --> 00:48:17,520
Speaker 1: That was dope? But why did he say this one?

766
00:48:18,080 --> 00:48:23,040
Speaker 1: He blamed the death? M hmm. How do you blame

767
00:48:23,040 --> 00:48:27,120
Speaker 1: a death for? Tyree Nichols on Baby Mama Culture single

768
00:48:27,120 --> 00:48:31,400
Speaker 1: mama culture, right, and those are two things getting conflated

769
00:48:31,400 --> 00:48:33,959
Speaker 1: in this moment. But I know what he's trying to say,

770
00:48:34,800 --> 00:48:37,960
Speaker 1: but you shouldn't have tried um, and more importantly, you

771
00:48:37,960 --> 00:48:39,759
Speaker 1: shouldn't have said it right now. I think it's what

772
00:48:39,800 --> 00:48:41,799
Speaker 1: people were saying. It's kind of in that Skip Bayless

773
00:48:42,400 --> 00:48:44,520
Speaker 1: moment of like, is this the time to say that?

774
00:48:45,080 --> 00:48:48,800
Speaker 1: And it's it's appropriate, and don't term it single mama,

775
00:48:48,880 --> 00:48:55,280
Speaker 1: baby mama because it's absentee father and where's daddy instead

776
00:48:55,320 --> 00:48:57,919
Speaker 1: of like, you know, like balancing out. But that's my boy.

777
00:48:58,160 --> 00:48:59,920
Speaker 1: I can't lying. I know y'all don't like him. Some

778
00:49:00,000 --> 00:49:02,920
Speaker 1: of y'all, Oh well, Um, I'm gonna listen to him

779
00:49:02,960 --> 00:49:05,120
Speaker 1: every single time, and I'm gonna give him his respect

780
00:49:05,680 --> 00:49:10,480
Speaker 1: when necessary. Um, this moment caught me in some some

781
00:49:10,560 --> 00:49:14,960
Speaker 1: strays caught me, you know, shrapnel hitting me. That's your friend,

782
00:49:15,040 --> 00:49:19,359
Speaker 1: that's your boy. No one agrees with everything I say,

783
00:49:19,400 --> 00:49:21,640
Speaker 1: so I hope I don't agree with everything they say.

784
00:49:21,640 --> 00:49:23,960
Speaker 1: And if I do, and if they do, we ain't

785
00:49:24,040 --> 00:49:28,440
Speaker 1: friends because we don't exist. Keep it real. But while

786
00:49:28,520 --> 00:49:33,040
Speaker 1: y'all lighting his ass up, lighting them up, I couldn't

787
00:49:33,040 --> 00:49:36,440
Speaker 1: believe it. It was wild too. I listened to the interview,

788
00:49:36,480 --> 00:49:39,279
Speaker 1: I was like, oh, but who doesn't happen? I mean,

789
00:49:39,320 --> 00:49:44,480
Speaker 1: if you say enough words, make enough comments, me, I

790
00:49:44,520 --> 00:49:46,560
Speaker 1: got I stepped in it before too, So I'm looking

791
00:49:46,600 --> 00:49:49,360
Speaker 1: at this situation like, yeah, well, like you did too

792
00:49:49,480 --> 00:49:52,640
Speaker 1: much on this one. Um, it's it's just a conflation,

793
00:49:52,920 --> 00:49:57,200
Speaker 1: you know, Like they are great kids from single mama's.

794
00:49:57,320 --> 00:50:00,759
Speaker 1: They're great like the culture at home. We gotta fix

795
00:50:00,800 --> 00:50:04,320
Speaker 1: the nuclear family, y'all. We gotta fix family, fix the family,

796
00:50:04,360 --> 00:50:07,239
Speaker 1: fix the future. He knows we're like, and I know

797
00:50:07,719 --> 00:50:10,440
Speaker 1: we're on the same page with that, But that doesn't

798
00:50:10,480 --> 00:50:15,759
Speaker 1: mean when things go awry you blame one parent, and

799
00:50:15,800 --> 00:50:19,800
Speaker 1: actually the parent that's doing the more responsible thing, even

800
00:50:19,800 --> 00:50:22,399
Speaker 1: though they may fail in that moment, they're even more

801
00:50:22,440 --> 00:50:25,840
Speaker 1: responsible than the absent one, who certainly is setting that

802
00:50:25,960 --> 00:50:29,120
Speaker 1: kid up for failure. So I get where he was

803
00:50:29,160 --> 00:50:31,480
Speaker 1: trying to go. I get his heart in that one.

804
00:50:32,200 --> 00:50:37,120
Speaker 1: But boy, not only bad timing, but bad some nation. Um.

805
00:50:37,160 --> 00:50:39,960
Speaker 1: I don't think it applied here, but that's how the

806
00:50:40,000 --> 00:50:45,600
Speaker 1: game goes. Um My two dogs love y'all. And when

807
00:50:45,600 --> 00:50:48,480
Speaker 1: I step in it, sorry, they're gonna light youall asses

808
00:50:48,560 --> 00:50:54,440
Speaker 1: up too. But y'all bringing out receipts. Now got I

809
00:50:54,560 --> 00:50:57,520
Speaker 1: chose from Jimmy Kimmel, I toold to mow. He learned

810
00:50:57,520 --> 00:51:03,000
Speaker 1: Black culture in college. Now this is where I'm like, Yeah,

811
00:51:03,120 --> 00:51:06,480
Speaker 1: light him up. You learned black culture in college, and

812
00:51:07,640 --> 00:51:10,520
Speaker 1: a decade later, I guess you're a ten year old. Basically,

813
00:51:10,560 --> 00:51:12,920
Speaker 1: in black culture, you're ten years old, and black culture

814
00:51:13,560 --> 00:51:18,840
Speaker 1: you're You're leading to uncomfortable conversations with a black man series.

815
00:51:19,760 --> 00:51:23,640
Speaker 1: That's when people really like dog. I don't think you're qualified,

816
00:51:24,480 --> 00:51:27,160
Speaker 1: and I know he's not qualified to do that, But

817
00:51:27,239 --> 00:51:29,080
Speaker 1: me and him had a private conversation that I will

818
00:51:29,160 --> 00:51:31,120
Speaker 1: leave private, but I'll give you one of the nuggets

819
00:51:31,200 --> 00:51:33,960
Speaker 1: I dropped. Hopefully he picked it up. I was like, oh,

820
00:51:34,000 --> 00:51:39,640
Speaker 1: you're not curing racism, so I wouldn't profess, I wouldn't address,

821
00:51:40,440 --> 00:51:44,399
Speaker 1: and I wouldn't dress up yourself as someone who may

822
00:51:44,920 --> 00:51:49,000
Speaker 1: cure racism. Um, you may be moving this ball forward,

823
00:51:49,200 --> 00:51:55,600
Speaker 1: but don't fumble. Um. That's all. But look, it got

824
00:51:55,640 --> 00:51:59,080
Speaker 1: him where he is, It helped him pop, and his

825
00:51:59,200 --> 00:52:06,799
Speaker 1: intentions are pure mm hmm. Pure in this sense. I mean, look,

826
00:52:07,000 --> 00:52:09,960
Speaker 1: you got open with you. It's big business too, but

827
00:52:10,840 --> 00:52:13,080
Speaker 1: it's pure in this sense, he really means. Well, that's

828
00:52:13,080 --> 00:52:15,680
Speaker 1: why Band kept apologizing to him. He knew the dude

829
00:52:15,719 --> 00:52:17,799
Speaker 1: came from a good place, but he was like, you

830
00:52:17,840 --> 00:52:20,200
Speaker 1: come from a good place, but boy, you're ask them

831
00:52:20,239 --> 00:52:26,600
Speaker 1: landing in the wrong place. And in case y'all like Dan,

832
00:52:26,640 --> 00:52:29,480
Speaker 1: while they don't give a fuck, no, I actually do.

833
00:52:29,680 --> 00:52:32,440
Speaker 1: That's why I talk about my friends as well. This

834
00:52:32,520 --> 00:52:37,279
Speaker 1: is my mantra two ways. One. I played ball my

835
00:52:37,320 --> 00:52:40,600
Speaker 1: whole life, including an NFL of a decade. Right I

836
00:52:40,640 --> 00:52:43,719
Speaker 1: got paid, I had a job. I had a passion

837
00:52:44,080 --> 00:52:48,600
Speaker 1: to translate the sport, which included talking about players, talking

838
00:52:48,640 --> 00:52:51,480
Speaker 1: about the game, talking about the locker room, telling y'all stories.

839
00:52:52,400 --> 00:52:56,080
Speaker 1: Also broadcast for twenty some years, so I got a

840
00:52:56,080 --> 00:52:59,840
Speaker 1: passion for it, which is telling you all about the broadcasters,

841
00:53:00,600 --> 00:53:05,080
Speaker 1: the people, the culture, the shows. So since I played ball,

842
00:53:05,120 --> 00:53:07,320
Speaker 1: I could talk about ball and the people were involved.

843
00:53:07,719 --> 00:53:10,960
Speaker 1: Since I broadcasted, I can talk about the broadcasters and

844
00:53:11,000 --> 00:53:13,680
Speaker 1: the people involved. Not a hater, y'all. I just tell

845
00:53:13,680 --> 00:53:16,239
Speaker 1: the truth too early, all right? Speaking of telling the

846
00:53:16,280 --> 00:53:21,920
Speaker 1: truth early and late, Jaylor rose that fake trolling about

847
00:53:21,920 --> 00:53:24,400
Speaker 1: the Cowboys. I'm glad I ain't make a career of

848
00:53:24,400 --> 00:53:26,960
Speaker 1: fake trolling the cowboys. I thought here was some about

849

870
00:54:42,239 --> 00:54:45,200
Speaker 1: What was that fifteen years ago? And now we're back

871
00:54:45,239 --> 00:54:48,120
Speaker 1: here again? Call him out again? I love it? Why

872
00:54:48,160 --> 00:54:50,239
Speaker 1: do I love it? Because y'all gotta talk this out.

873
00:54:50,640 --> 00:54:53,200
Speaker 1: And if y'all don't talk this out like I found out,

874
00:54:53,280 --> 00:54:54,920
Speaker 1: if you don't want to talk about it, all, the

875
00:54:54,960 --> 00:54:57,160
Speaker 1: people will help you talk about it and the people

876
00:54:57,280 --> 00:55:01,399
Speaker 1: will finish your conversation for you. U The deepest thing

877
00:55:01,400 --> 00:55:03,800
Speaker 1: about this that I love the life lesson I found

878
00:55:03,800 --> 00:55:08,520
Speaker 1: in this, and I respect Jalen for this. He got

879
00:55:08,520 --> 00:55:12,359
Speaker 1: a problem with people's lack of credibility since they never

880
00:55:12,400 --> 00:55:17,440
Speaker 1: did it, Slash. They talk about everybody like they did it.

881
00:55:19,120 --> 00:55:22,360
Speaker 1: So it's not that you haven't done it, because like,

882
00:55:22,400 --> 00:55:25,319
Speaker 1: who's gonna clown Bill Belichick or you know what I mean,

883
00:55:25,360 --> 00:55:29,279
Speaker 1: like Sean Payton like anything, or any broadcaster who's over

884
00:55:29,320 --> 00:55:32,160
Speaker 1: here really gonna clown you because you didn't do it

885
00:55:32,160 --> 00:55:33,839
Speaker 1: at the highest level, Like I don't even look at

886
00:55:33,840 --> 00:55:37,600
Speaker 1: it like that. That's simple, that's simple minded. But when

887
00:55:37,680 --> 00:55:41,160
Speaker 1: you are not playing within the borders of like I

888
00:55:41,200 --> 00:55:45,839
Speaker 1: guess respectful broadcasting and as we say, when you start

889
00:55:45,960 --> 00:55:50,440
Speaker 1: nicknaming grown men west Brick and stuff like that, Westbrook

890
00:55:50,480 --> 00:55:55,480
Speaker 1: the Homi too, I know he don't like that. I'm sure, um,

891
00:55:55,520 --> 00:55:58,160
Speaker 1: when you start going there, you're calling growing men out

892
00:55:58,200 --> 00:56:02,120
Speaker 1: their name without they permiss in, And it's funny to you,

893
00:56:02,280 --> 00:56:04,960
Speaker 1: but it's not funny to them. Like I don't like

894
00:56:05,040 --> 00:56:08,160
Speaker 1: making jokes that ain't funny to y'all, Like that's the

895
00:56:08,160 --> 00:56:10,319
Speaker 1: whole point of the joke. If it's just funny to me,

896
00:56:11,400 --> 00:56:13,520
Speaker 1: I can keep it to myself, like nobody else need

897
00:56:13,600 --> 00:56:17,240
Speaker 1: to hear it. But if it's like, it's not funny

898
00:56:17,239 --> 00:56:19,759
Speaker 1: to you, and I'm talking about you, not y'all. If

899
00:56:19,800 --> 00:56:22,080
Speaker 1: I'm talking about y'all, take the hell. I don't give

900
00:56:22,080 --> 00:56:24,040
Speaker 1: a damn, but I wanna talk about you. I just

901
00:56:24,080 --> 00:56:26,439
Speaker 1: got a bigger heart than that. I'm like, it's another

902
00:56:26,480 --> 00:56:29,359
Speaker 1: way to jab that food and slap slap that food

903
00:56:29,400 --> 00:56:31,680
Speaker 1: up side of the head without calling him out his name, right,

904
00:56:32,480 --> 00:56:34,160
Speaker 1: Like I wouldn't have to call you west Brick or

905
00:56:34,200 --> 00:56:38,080
Speaker 1: something like that. I'll just call you something else that

906
00:56:38,200 --> 00:56:40,160
Speaker 1: you'd be like, damn, I can't say nothing to that,

907
00:56:40,880 --> 00:56:43,759
Speaker 1: like be sophisticated, find another word, find another way, but

908
00:56:43,840 --> 00:56:47,000
Speaker 1: still hit him with the same punch. So Jayla got

909
00:56:47,000 --> 00:56:50,080
Speaker 1: a problem with that, and I like that problem because

910
00:56:50,120 --> 00:56:53,880
Speaker 1: you didn't do it all right, no flag on the play,

911
00:56:54,640 --> 00:56:59,440
Speaker 1: but now you're coming that cats not their persona but

912
00:56:59,760 --> 00:57:02,640
Speaker 1: the character or who they are, and you didn't do it.

913
00:57:02,840 --> 00:57:06,160
Speaker 1: Oh man, Now we gotta talk when the Skip ain't

914
00:57:06,160 --> 00:57:10,000
Speaker 1: gonna talk about it. We saw that went last time

915
00:57:10,040 --> 00:57:12,760
Speaker 1: they did talk about it. So it's kind of interesting

916
00:57:12,800 --> 00:57:16,720
Speaker 1: to watch that, like watch it all play out, because

917
00:57:16,760 --> 00:57:19,960
Speaker 1: I'm watching to see when is this gonna really have

918
00:57:20,040 --> 00:57:22,360
Speaker 1: the collision? Like we got old media and new media.

919
00:57:22,520 --> 00:57:25,240
Speaker 1: I see that civil war out there, what is it?

920
00:57:25,400 --> 00:57:31,360
Speaker 1: Draymond J. J Reddick versus stephen A and Skip, you know,

921
00:57:31,520 --> 00:57:36,000
Speaker 1: the old Guards, the Blue Chips, the blue bloods um.

922
00:57:36,040 --> 00:57:38,080
Speaker 1: It's funny to watch that, but I really want to

923
00:57:38,120 --> 00:57:41,920
Speaker 1: see where are we gonna land in terms of decency,

924
00:57:42,360 --> 00:57:46,120
Speaker 1: in terms of respect, in terms of how our entertainment

925
00:57:46,960 --> 00:57:54,160
Speaker 1: is balanced with education another one, because that's what we're

926
00:57:54,160 --> 00:57:58,800
Speaker 1: doing here, Like we're we're entertaining you while educating you, right,

927
00:57:58,840 --> 00:58:01,720
Speaker 1: and there's a balance in that. And there are flags

928
00:58:01,760 --> 00:58:04,960
Speaker 1: on the play. There are boundaries to that, and I'm

929
00:58:05,080 --> 00:58:10,200
Speaker 1: liking that people are starting to highlight those boundaries, starting

930
00:58:10,200 --> 00:58:14,160
Speaker 1: to put those boundaries in check and checking the people

931
00:58:14,160 --> 00:58:18,680
Speaker 1: who cross them, Like let's go to war. Uh beautiful

932
00:58:18,680 --> 00:58:21,280
Speaker 1: place to be right now? I'll tell you one place

933
00:58:21,440 --> 00:58:23,840
Speaker 1: is not beautiful right now. If you're Dak Prescott to be.

934
00:58:24,520 --> 00:58:27,000
Speaker 1: It's not only a Dallas cowboy because they lighten your

935
00:58:27,040 --> 00:58:32,320
Speaker 1: ass up, but on the line, like you can't search

936
00:58:32,520 --> 00:58:36,520
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott right now because his own team troll them

937
00:58:36,520 --> 00:58:39,880
Speaker 1: in a tweet. How y'all gonna troll your own player

938
00:58:41,320 --> 00:58:43,360
Speaker 1: just basically blame the game on them. I mean, y'a

939
00:58:43,400 --> 00:58:46,320
Speaker 1: don't need all them words. Just say that fault, you know,

940
00:58:46,360 --> 00:58:48,840
Speaker 1: hass hack that fault, and then that would have been easier.

941
00:58:49,160 --> 00:58:52,200
Speaker 1: I hate friendly fire. Who doesn't who doesn't want to

942
00:58:52,240 --> 00:58:56,320
Speaker 1: be shooting at the opponent quote unquote and then get

943
00:58:56,320 --> 00:58:58,640
Speaker 1: one in the back. You know what I say to

944
00:58:58,680 --> 00:59:03,440
Speaker 1: wildly isn't right. Real friends, real homies, real organizations shoot

945
00:59:03,480 --> 00:59:05,960
Speaker 1: you in the chest, not the back. Look at that

946
00:59:06,800 --> 00:59:09,760
Speaker 1: face that talk to that. That's it. We don't need that.

947
00:59:11,120 --> 00:59:13,360
Speaker 1: But they turned on them, and it was sad to

948
00:59:13,440 --> 00:59:15,600
Speaker 1: see kind of because not only did they do it,

949
00:59:16,160 --> 00:59:19,840
Speaker 1: but they left it up like they Jerry Jones approved.

950
00:59:19,960 --> 00:59:23,680
Speaker 1: Huh m hmm. I thought that was really interesting. Not

951
00:59:23,760 --> 00:59:25,720
Speaker 1: only did they do it, but they left it up

952
00:59:25,760 --> 00:59:30,360
Speaker 1: like yeah, you know, middle finger to the face, what

953
00:59:30,480 --> 00:59:33,880
Speaker 1: to do? What you're gonna do? Um. It sounds like

954
00:59:33,920 --> 00:59:41,640
Speaker 1: they're just laying the foundation of that disruption or that departure.

955
00:59:42,800 --> 00:59:47,040
Speaker 1: That's what's happening, you know, like anybody, it's baseball. Basically,

956
00:59:47,360 --> 00:59:49,960
Speaker 1: you go up there and swing once or they get

957
00:59:49,960 --> 00:59:52,720
Speaker 1: one by you. It's just strike one, but you're that

958
00:59:52,800 --> 00:59:55,520
Speaker 1: much closer to striking out right, but you ain't going

959
00:59:55,560 --> 00:59:58,000
Speaker 1: to where right now? And that's what this situation is,

960
00:59:58,040 --> 01:00:01,200
Speaker 1: that that ain't going to where right now? But they

961
01:00:01,280 --> 01:00:05,280
Speaker 1: lay in that found date try on and you're like, oh,

962
01:00:05,320 --> 01:00:07,040
Speaker 1: that's what that's what we do. We call him that

963
01:00:07,960 --> 01:00:10,800
Speaker 1: that like that's like that ain't the strikes on? Oh

964
01:00:12,680 --> 01:00:17,400
Speaker 1: Jerry Jones somewhere? Yeah, no, I heard of this firestorm

965
01:00:17,440 --> 01:00:22,000
Speaker 1: or deck. But let it be because we're not happy,

966
01:00:22,040 --> 01:00:24,600
Speaker 1: We're not satisfied. People are starting to think they got

967
01:00:24,680 --> 01:00:27,480
Speaker 1: a glass ceiling in Dallas, Like, can we win with

968
01:00:27,600 --> 01:00:32,400
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott? I think so, I mean, I think you

969
01:00:32,400 --> 01:00:36,400
Speaker 1: can win it all with Dak Prescott. Shoot, people were

970
01:00:36,440 --> 01:00:38,960
Speaker 1: writing off Jalen Hurts. Now look at Jayalen Hurts in

971
01:00:39,000 --> 01:00:42,840
Speaker 1: the super Bowl? Is that better than Jalen Hurts? All right, stop,

972
01:00:42,880 --> 01:00:46,520
Speaker 1: I know what y'all saying. No, Even if you say no,

973
01:00:46,800 --> 01:00:49,160
Speaker 1: he ain't that far from Jalen Hursts? Is he? And

974
01:00:49,200 --> 01:00:51,600
Speaker 1: if y'all say yeah, okay, let me get off this podcast.

975
01:00:51,960 --> 01:00:54,800
Speaker 1: Damn the gap between Dak and Jayalen Hursts. Let's just

976
01:00:54,840 --> 01:00:58,360
Speaker 1: really imagine that if not see that. I know he's

977
01:00:58,400 --> 01:01:01,120
Speaker 1: in a super Bowl, but how much better is he

978
01:01:01,200 --> 01:01:05,440
Speaker 1: in that? Right? What do you throw for? I mean,

979
01:01:05,440 --> 01:01:06,800
Speaker 1: that was a tough game. You're gonna get a number

980
01:01:06,800 --> 01:01:08,560
Speaker 1: one defense. What do you go for under two hunted

981
01:01:10,760 --> 01:01:14,320
Speaker 1: that can't do that in advance? I mean, I don't know.

982
01:01:14,600 --> 01:01:18,720
Speaker 1: So y'all stay off the sauce, y'all. Don't don't hit

983
01:01:18,760 --> 01:01:20,920
Speaker 1: me with that one. Don't hit me with that one.

984
01:01:20,920 --> 01:01:24,160
Speaker 1: Like the gap between Jalalen Herdson Dak. So it's not

985
01:01:24,320 --> 01:01:27,840
Speaker 1: over for Dak. But better watch his ask before he

986
01:01:27,880 --> 01:01:32,440
Speaker 1: strike out speaking about being on that sauce. Whoa stepson't

987
01:01:32,520 --> 01:01:35,920
Speaker 1: been it arrested? Y'all know who he is for public

988
01:01:36,000 --> 01:01:40,360
Speaker 1: intoxication Georgia quarterback. Former Georgia quarterback who's like nineties six

989
01:01:40,440 --> 01:01:42,600
Speaker 1: years old, a by to go pro right. I don't

01:01:44,560 --> 01:01:47,600
Speaker 1: he getting drafted. You know, I drunk? You gotta be

992
01:01:47,760 --> 01:01:53,720
Speaker 1: to get arrested for being drunk, and you're talking to

993
01:01:53,760 --> 01:01:58,280
Speaker 1: somebody who's been drunk before. And to be real, since

994
01:01:58,320 --> 01:02:01,320
Speaker 1: I've been to Vegas a thousand times in public, Miami,

995
01:02:01,520 --> 01:02:06,880
Speaker 1: New Orleans, bodies, bodies, bodies, how the hell you so

01:02:07,080 --> 01:02:09,680

01:02:09,680 --> 01:02:12,920
Speaker 1: see video. I need to see this. And you're supposed

01:02:12,960 --> 01:02:16,720
Speaker 1: to be in the draft pre combined process getting ready

999
01:02:16,760 --> 01:02:20,720
Speaker 1: for your pro day and you lit like that. I mean,

01:02:20,760 --> 01:02:24,440
Speaker 1: you won the national championship hip hip, hooray. You ain't

1001
01:02:24,440 --> 01:02:26,960
Speaker 1: the only one who gets that lit that they get

1002
01:02:27,000 --> 01:02:29,960
Speaker 1: arrested for being lit, not a d u R, which

1003
01:02:30,000 --> 01:02:33,640
Speaker 1: is different. Like you, you're driving a vehicle and now

1004
01:02:33,880 --> 01:02:39,320
Speaker 1: you so soft stuff that outside outside where the civilians are,

1005
01:02:39,760 --> 01:02:41,840
Speaker 1: and they gotta be lit too, because wherever you are

1006
01:02:41,840 --> 01:02:45,320
Speaker 1: as a bar, I hope there's people that's drunk with you.

1007
01:02:45,480 --> 01:02:48,520
Speaker 1: I hope. If not, you got a deeper problem. You

1008
01:02:48,600 --> 01:02:51,160
Speaker 1: buy yourself going rogue and lit like that. How you

1009
01:02:51,160 --> 01:02:55,520
Speaker 1: get arrested for being drunk? Damn, But I ain't gonna lie.

1010
01:02:55,520 --> 01:02:57,560
Speaker 1: I was in Houston one year Super Bowl and I

1011
01:02:57,600 --> 01:03:02,440
Speaker 1: saw it leaving the club. This is different, you know, Houston,

1012
01:03:02,480 --> 01:03:04,720
Speaker 1: they got the horses and the cop cops to be

1013
01:03:04,800 --> 01:03:07,680
Speaker 1: riding the horses. I hate that. I'd rather cop come

1014
01:03:07,720 --> 01:03:14,400
Speaker 1: up to me, full blast sirens, color lights, spotlight on

1015
01:03:14,400 --> 01:03:18,320
Speaker 1: my face, mark SATs, get off the car, start back

1016
01:03:18,320 --> 01:03:20,800
Speaker 1: to get off the car, whatever the hell they're gonna come, dude,

1017
01:03:20,840 --> 01:03:24,560
Speaker 1: get out the car whatever. I'd rather that then walking

1018
01:03:24,600 --> 01:03:26,880
Speaker 1: by that horse and his ass and that tail just

1019
01:03:28,160 --> 01:03:30,720
Speaker 1: and you can't do nothing if that horsetail hit you

1020
01:03:31,000 --> 01:03:34,400
Speaker 1: and you just shoot it away that horse. About that,

1021
01:03:35,160 --> 01:03:37,320
Speaker 1: Not only the horse has a license to light your

1022
01:03:37,360 --> 01:03:41,240
Speaker 1: ass up, the policeman can, because the horses a policeman.

1023
01:03:41,320 --> 01:03:43,040
Speaker 1: I didn't know that. And I was in Houston that year.

1024
01:03:43,520 --> 01:03:45,320
Speaker 1: They were like, yo, you touched that horse, you got

1025
01:03:45,400 --> 01:03:49,200
Speaker 1: a prompt. But I saw it. Somebody was lit. Stepson

01:03:49,360 --> 01:03:51,960
Speaker 1: Bennett Senior. I don't know who the hell this dude was.

1027
01:03:52,560 --> 01:03:57,080
Speaker 1: He came out the club, let that horsetail went and

1028
01:03:57,160 --> 01:04:01,280
Speaker 1: he was lit. Not his fault. His fault though he

1029
01:04:01,440 --> 01:04:06,000
Speaker 1: was so lit. Man, dude, you gotta that we've hit

1030
01:04:06,080 --> 01:04:09,560
Speaker 1: him in the head. What sucker. Look, he didn't even

1031
01:04:09,560 --> 01:04:11,480
Speaker 1: know what it was. He didn't know the personal horses

1032
01:04:11,720 --> 01:04:16,120
Speaker 1: what about? And them cops jumped off that horse, the

1033

Speaker 1: Like man, I go up to a complic like, bro,

1054
01:05:32,560 --> 01:05:36,000
Speaker 1: what you're doing? And they'd be like what I mean?

1055
01:05:36,000 --> 01:05:38,760
Speaker 1: They people first before they put that uniform on and

1056
01:05:38,800 --> 01:05:40,840
Speaker 1: all that. So I crack up. When cats get caught

1057
01:05:40,920 --> 01:05:45,400
Speaker 1: up like this, I'm like, damn, howlet you gotta be? Um?

1058
01:05:45,440 --> 01:05:51,760
Speaker 1: The most lit I've ever been in public? Definitely my

1059
01:05:51,840 --> 01:05:56,640
Speaker 1: bachelor party. Um can koon no, can't, can't coom see

1060
01:05:56,640 --> 01:05:58,440
Speaker 1: this how lit I was. It wasn't even Cantoo. There

1061
01:05:58,520 --> 01:06:03,040
Speaker 1: was Cobo. Oh one of them countries in Mexico. That's

1062
01:06:03,040 --> 01:06:07,080
Speaker 1: what a sea um liot lit. You ever get so

1063
01:06:07,120 --> 01:06:09,920
Speaker 1: lit that you'd be like sitting there like yo, this

1064
01:06:10,040 --> 01:06:13,400
Speaker 1: blurry bro. Then you're like, oh this ain't good and

1065
01:06:13,400 --> 01:06:15,840
Speaker 1: even like stop it. You're like and then you hit

1066
01:06:15,840 --> 01:06:18,680
Speaker 1: the DJ quickline. I never drink again if you just

1067
01:06:18,760 --> 01:06:24,480
Speaker 1: let me live tonight. But you can't stop the avalanche,

1068
01:06:24,520 --> 01:06:27,560
Speaker 1: you can't stop the bum rush. And all I remember

1069
01:06:27,880 --> 01:06:32,720
Speaker 1: is there was this outdoor shower and I was so lit.

1070
01:06:32,880 --> 01:06:36,120
Speaker 1: I thought taking the outdoor shower would wake me up.

1071
01:06:37,040 --> 01:06:39,880
Speaker 1: But that's only when you slightly hydrated, when you were

1072
01:06:39,880 --> 01:06:44,959
Speaker 1: in this situation, hydration situation. I was in that water

1073
01:06:45,080 --> 01:06:48,959
Speaker 1: gonna just magnified, just amplified. So I got in there.

1074
01:06:49,960 --> 01:06:52,800
Speaker 1: I remember getting in there and I was like holding

1075
01:06:52,800 --> 01:06:57,920
Speaker 1: the water. WHOA. Then I try to turn around, slip

1076
01:06:58,000 --> 01:07:03,560
Speaker 1: fail back. I was like damn. And then I'm getting up.

1077
01:07:03,600 --> 01:07:06,400
Speaker 1: I'm fine, but I'm getting up. And I guess because

1078
01:07:06,440 --> 01:07:09,880
Speaker 1: I am fine. It was like girls looking and laughing,

1079
01:07:10,680 --> 01:07:14,040
Speaker 1: and one of them was like walking towards me and

1080
01:07:14,240 --> 01:07:16,040
Speaker 1: all I know, and I was sitting there like, oh,

1081
01:07:16,120 --> 01:07:21,400
Speaker 1: this is about the big cracking bachelor party starting. And

1082
01:07:21,520 --> 01:07:26,680
Speaker 1: then my boys come in, like Cavalry the hater squad,

1083
01:07:26,760 --> 01:07:29,600
Speaker 1: let me call him. In that moment, I'm litting, I'm like, oh,

1084
01:07:29,760 --> 01:07:31,640
Speaker 1: I mean them girls probably bigger than me. I don't know,

1085
01:07:31,720 --> 01:07:33,280
Speaker 1: but I'm like, oh, they're coming over here and they

1086
01:07:33,280 --> 01:07:36,280
Speaker 1: looking at me. I'm pumped. I still back up, and

1087
01:07:36,320 --> 01:07:39,960
Speaker 1: then my boys, uh, They're like hell no, no, no

1088
01:07:40,560 --> 01:07:43,000
Speaker 1: blocking me. And they were blocking because the camera phones

1089
01:07:43,040 --> 01:07:44,800
Speaker 1: and videos and they're like, man, them girls put you

1090
01:07:44,840 --> 01:07:47,439
Speaker 1: on TMZ right now. I like, for what, being drunk

1091
01:07:47,440 --> 01:07:49,280
Speaker 1: at my own bachelor party, Like they ain't no crime

1092
01:07:50,160 --> 01:07:56,320
Speaker 1: that hasn't been in somewhere, Like, yeah it is. That

1093
01:07:56,440 --> 01:07:58,320
Speaker 1: was good when I came alive. That was a good joke,

1094
01:07:58,400 --> 01:08:02,080
Speaker 1: good timing right there, good time. Oh the hell gets

1095
01:08:02,200 --> 01:08:07,600
Speaker 1: arrested for being drunk. Stop it, y'all grow up, do better.

1096
01:08:08,280 --> 01:08:11,280
Speaker 1: Speaking of doing better, um, I think a lot of

1097
01:08:11,320 --> 01:08:16,799
Speaker 1: people are still having the conversation uh duly noted about

1098
01:08:17,680 --> 01:08:22,439
Speaker 1: the NFL hiring practice, especially with black coaches, after seeing

1099
01:08:22,479 --> 01:08:26,080
Speaker 1: Steve Wilkes not get the job in Carolina. Mm hmm.

1100
01:08:29,080 --> 01:08:31,160
Speaker 1: This show is called more to it, so guess what.

1101
01:08:31,439 --> 01:08:35,200
Speaker 1: There's more to it than just color. Um. Look, he

1102
01:08:35,240 --> 01:08:39,400
Speaker 1: got six of the Panther seven wins, so people were like, yo,

1103
01:08:39,439 --> 01:08:42,519
Speaker 1: he's gonna keep the job, right, yeah, six or seven? Yeah,

1104
01:08:42,560 --> 01:08:46,519
Speaker 1: that's great. But then they were like, um, he not

1105
01:08:46,680 --> 01:08:51,200
Speaker 1: the right man for the job. It's frank right right,

1106
01:08:52,320 --> 01:08:56,479
Speaker 1: all right, And obviously there's a color difference there. So

1107
01:08:56,880 --> 01:09:01,720
Speaker 1: all right, what's really going on? Let me first do

1108
01:09:01,840 --> 01:09:08,960
Speaker 1: some technical reading the attorney for Steve Wilkes said he

1109
01:09:08,960 --> 01:09:13,559
Speaker 1: he was disappointed that Carolina hired Frank Wright. Um, this

1110
01:09:13,600 --> 01:09:16,880
Speaker 1: is his quote. Already there's a legitimate race problem in

1111
01:09:16,880 --> 01:09:19,040
Speaker 1: the NFL. And we could assure you that we will

1112
01:09:19,080 --> 01:09:21,320
Speaker 1: have more to say in the coming days. Now he's

1113
01:09:21,360 --> 01:09:24,200
Speaker 1: already a part of the Brian Flora's lawsuits, Steve Wilkes,

1114
01:09:24,280 --> 01:09:27,639
Speaker 1: so I'm sure there will be more I said about this.

1115
01:09:29,640 --> 01:09:33,080
Speaker 1: Let's talk about this. The only layer I would add

1116
01:09:33,120 --> 01:09:38,120
Speaker 1: to this is never really give it even different contexts,

1117
01:09:38,200 --> 01:09:45,559
Speaker 1: greater context Um, we all know nepotism, we all know

1118
01:09:45,680 --> 01:09:48,840
Speaker 1: crony ism. You hire your circle, you hire your family,

1119
01:09:48,880 --> 01:09:54,840
Speaker 1: you hire your friend. Um, Frank Wright, you can't. You

1120
01:09:54,920 --> 01:09:57,840
Speaker 1: can't really call him a slouch as a head coach

1121
01:09:57,920 --> 01:10:03,120
Speaker 1: despite not working out in Indianapolis. Um, you can just

1122
01:10:03,160 --> 01:10:06,240
Speaker 1: say he can find a quarterback. Therefore you can do something. Well,

1123
01:10:06,280 --> 01:10:07,720
Speaker 1: you're going in a situation where they really don't have

1124
01:10:07,720 --> 01:10:11,320
Speaker 1: a quarterback, so good luck with that. But just staying

1125
01:10:11,360 --> 01:10:14,479
Speaker 1: in the race lends with this one. Here's something that

1126
01:10:14,520 --> 01:10:17,519
Speaker 1: doesn't get discussed enough, and I'm going to bring like

1127
01:10:17,680 --> 01:10:20,800
Speaker 1: to it because everybody knows this, but I don't know

1128
01:10:20,840 --> 01:10:22,720
Speaker 1: why nobody really wants to go there. I've been there

1129
01:10:22,760 --> 01:10:27,360
Speaker 1: a couple of times before. But let's go again, not

1130
01:10:27,640 --> 01:10:31,280
Speaker 1: this example, because Steve Wilkes certainly qualified for this job.

1131
01:10:31,720 --> 01:10:35,880
Speaker 1: I don't know his relationship status with the ownership, and

1132
01:10:35,920 --> 01:10:40,439
Speaker 1: I don't know Frank Wrights. But Frank Wright qualifies, Steve

1133
01:10:40,439 --> 01:10:44,040
Speaker 1: Wilkes qualifies. Okay, so let's throw this one out. But

1134
01:10:44,240 --> 01:10:46,599
Speaker 1: this sparks a greater conversation because there's more to it

1135
01:10:47,439 --> 01:10:54,080
Speaker 1: in general when you talk about black NFL head coaches

1136
01:10:54,200 --> 01:10:57,960
Speaker 1: versus white NFL head coaches. Let's just start with the

1137
01:10:58,040 --> 01:11:01,480
Speaker 1: averages before we get to the edges to the extremes.

1138
01:11:04,320 --> 01:11:12,000
Speaker 1: There are more white players, former players, or just white

1139
01:11:12,560 --> 01:11:21,040
Speaker 1: ball playing lovers trying to coach then black. I'm gonna

1140
01:11:21,040 --> 01:11:23,439
Speaker 1: say it again, there are more people on the line

1141
01:11:23,439 --> 01:11:27,559
Speaker 1: of white coaches, not just because they're more white people

1142
01:11:28,680 --> 01:11:31,280
Speaker 1: then black. Okay, we know that, right, Like, that's not

1143
01:11:31,360 --> 01:11:35,240
Speaker 1: that difficult to digest it. And if so, man, have

1144
01:11:35,400 --> 01:11:38,439
Speaker 1: fun with your friends. Man, you know, we're the black

1145
01:11:38,479 --> 01:11:43,439
Speaker 1: people levcent of this country. And then now you're gonna say, oh, oh,

1146
01:11:43,479 --> 01:11:46,679
Speaker 1: they're more black coaches. No they're not. They're not more

1147
01:11:46,720 --> 01:11:50,040
Speaker 1: black coaches than waiting there are more white that's part one.

1148
01:11:50,720 --> 01:11:54,519
Speaker 1: That's a simple I hope you can can't argue that one.

1149
01:11:54,560 --> 01:11:56,599
Speaker 1: I hope you don't argue that one. If not, If

1150
01:11:56,640 --> 01:11:59,280
Speaker 1: you do, you're gonna miss me. Okay, let's go from there.

1151
01:12:01,400 --> 01:12:08,960
Speaker 1: My summation through experience has been this, the white player

1152
01:12:09,680 --> 01:12:14,360
Speaker 1: is jumping in that line earlier than the black player. Now,

1153
01:12:14,600 --> 01:12:18,240
Speaker 1: when that happens in general society, we usually blame exposure. Right,

1154
01:12:18,560 --> 01:12:21,400
Speaker 1: you weren't exposed to it. A black person wasn't explode

1155
01:12:21,520 --> 01:12:24,479
Speaker 1: exposed to it. The white player was exposed to it,

1156
01:12:24,800 --> 01:12:28,360
Speaker 1: but not in this context. We all know football, and

1157
01:12:28,360 --> 01:12:29,760
Speaker 1: we all know if you're gonna be a coach or

1158
01:12:29,800 --> 01:12:32,160
Speaker 1: you're gonna be a grad assistant, you're gonna have to

1159
01:12:32,200 --> 01:12:35,519
Speaker 1: slum it out. You're gonna have to get get take

1160
01:12:35,560 --> 01:12:39,840
Speaker 1: your lumps, build your resume, get to get in early. Right,

1161
01:12:41,400 --> 01:12:47,479
Speaker 1: And typically I've seen whether that grind wasn't appealing to

1162
01:12:47,600 --> 01:12:53,719
Speaker 1: my black teammates versus my white teammates, or regardless of appeal,

1163
01:12:54,800 --> 01:12:59,360
Speaker 1: the white player jumped in there earlier in general, to

1164
01:12:59,400 --> 01:13:01,360
Speaker 1: the point where I like, okay, not only do they

1165
01:13:01,360 --> 01:13:05,480
Speaker 1: have a greater group in terms of numbers, aggregate numbers

1166
01:13:05,520 --> 01:13:09,760
Speaker 1: to pull from. But in terms of how long they've

1167
01:13:09,760 --> 01:13:16,520
Speaker 1: been in the grinder processor building their resume, earlier longer,

1168
01:13:17,920 --> 01:13:20,360
Speaker 1: you could say, because well, they didn't have a chance

1169
01:13:20,360 --> 01:13:23,080
Speaker 1: to go pro like the brother did you go there?

1170
01:13:23,640 --> 01:13:25,639
Speaker 1: But I'm talking about pro on pro. I'm talking about

1171
01:13:25,640 --> 01:13:29,120
Speaker 1: in my locker room. How many dudes at what age

1172
01:13:29,160 --> 01:13:31,559
Speaker 1: did it hit them? I'm gonna be a coach. That

1173
01:13:31,760 --> 01:13:35,479
Speaker 1: age is younger in general for white than black, just

1174
01:13:35,720 --> 01:13:38,880
Speaker 1: where it was. Maybe it's changed, but there's still a

1175
01:13:38,920 --> 01:13:41,120
Speaker 1: longer line because it's more of them, and they get

1176
01:13:41,200 --> 01:13:45,439
Speaker 1: in there as early, if not earlier than black. Then

1177
01:13:45,520 --> 01:13:51,080
Speaker 1: black coaches in waiting. Now, those two things are obviously

1178
01:13:51,120 --> 01:13:55,920
Speaker 1: gonna rig the hiring practice. We ain't even got two relationships.

1179
01:13:55,960 --> 01:13:58,719
Speaker 1: We haven't even gotten to qualifications. We haven't even gotten

1180
01:13:58,760 --> 01:14:04,559
Speaker 1: to how you get to the front of that line.

1181
01:14:05,520 --> 01:14:07,920
Speaker 1: But I think what we do and I think it's

1182
01:14:08,000 --> 01:14:10,320
Speaker 1: lazy for real, But hey, we live life on the

1183
01:14:10,720 --> 01:14:12,640
Speaker 1: edges extremes. Like we only talk about the best of

1184
01:14:12,720 --> 01:14:17,200
Speaker 1: the best. There is a closer gap. There is a

1185
01:14:17,400 --> 01:14:19,720
Speaker 1: leveling of the playing field when you talk about the

1186
01:14:19,800 --> 01:14:23,439
Speaker 1: best black coaches and the best white coaches. Yeah, because

1187
01:14:23,439 --> 01:14:27,360
Speaker 1: they're both qualified. But then in terms of the depth

1188
01:14:27,560 --> 01:14:33,080
Speaker 1: of the qualification and how many are as qualified, that's

1189
01:14:33,120 --> 01:14:36,080
Speaker 1: when we need to start digging into the conversation. But

1190
01:14:36,200 --> 01:14:38,679
Speaker 1: we don't. We just say, hey, he good, he good,

1191
01:14:38,720 --> 01:14:43,080
Speaker 1: he good, he good, But then we don't really understand

1192
01:14:43,080 --> 01:14:48,040
Speaker 1: our discussed that quantity. We like to make it only

1193
01:14:48,080 --> 01:14:53,120
Speaker 1: a quality conversation. And that's interesting because I like to

1194
01:14:53,160 --> 01:14:58,439
Speaker 1: go both Um, you have more from one side than

1195
01:14:58,479 --> 01:15:03,559
Speaker 1: another side, but that shouldn't exclude either side. But when

1196
01:15:03,640 --> 01:15:07,240
Speaker 1: we get to that place where okay, who is in rotation?

1197
01:15:08,600 --> 01:15:10,880
Speaker 1: Like being real, let's just you who's the top black

1198
01:15:10,920 --> 01:15:13,479
Speaker 1: candidate right now? Steve Wooks, Okay, give it to him,

1199
01:15:13,640 --> 01:15:16,759
Speaker 1: Eric the Enemy, give it to him by Byron Leftwish

1200
01:15:16,800 --> 01:15:20,400
Speaker 1: one year ago. It's already man, And that's my boy.

1201
01:15:20,640 --> 01:15:28,200
Speaker 1: Went from okay, penthouse to oh no. But that happens

1202
01:15:28,200 --> 01:15:32,080
Speaker 1: for the white coaches too, like the best white available

1203
01:15:32,120 --> 01:15:38,840
Speaker 1: coaches who Sean Payton. That's different, y'all. That ain't Steve Wooks, Um,

1204
01:15:38,920 --> 01:15:41,960
Speaker 1: Jim Harball, that's different. You see what I'm saying here.

1205
01:15:42,000 --> 01:15:44,479
Speaker 1: So you can have a quality conversation, you have a

1206
01:15:44,560 --> 01:15:48,400
Speaker 1: quantity conversation. We don't have the quantity conversation, I think

1207
01:15:48,439 --> 01:15:51,680
Speaker 1: on purpose because we know it's a greater number with

1208
01:15:51,840 --> 01:15:55,200
Speaker 1: white coaches. But even right now, in this moment, no

1209
01:15:55,240 --> 01:15:57,479
Speaker 1: matter how much Rooney rule you over here trying to

1210
01:15:57,479 --> 01:16:02,439
Speaker 1: profess right now, do a BCS ranking through a ranking

1211
01:16:02,479 --> 01:16:07,840
Speaker 1: of who's the best coaches? M Content of character, as

1212
01:16:07,840 --> 01:16:13,599
Speaker 1: they say, content of resume. Write them down, y'all write

1213
01:16:13,640 --> 01:16:17,960
Speaker 1: them down. Oh m hmm, what number is the first

1214
01:16:18,000 --> 01:16:21,719
Speaker 1: black coach that's available? It's interesting. So I just saw

1215
01:16:21,760 --> 01:16:23,919
Speaker 1: that story and I just wanted to add the quality

1216
01:16:24,040 --> 01:16:27,280
Speaker 1: versus quantity conversation to it because you know me, man,

1217
01:16:27,479 --> 01:16:31,559
Speaker 1: I think it's just the wrong game to play when

1218
01:16:31,560 --> 01:16:35,280
Speaker 1: you racialize everything or to a greater extent than it exists.

1219
01:16:35,960 --> 01:16:40,280
Speaker 1: NFL is trying it is best to legislate interests, trying

1220
01:16:40,320 --> 01:16:44,160
Speaker 1: to legislate desire into this conversation with the Rooney rule.

1221
01:16:45,160 --> 01:16:48,599
Speaker 1: I said it twenty years ago. I'm gonna say it now.

1222
01:16:49,840 --> 01:16:54,360
Speaker 1: The Rooney rule won't work. The only thing that's gonna

1223
01:16:54,400 --> 01:16:58,040
Speaker 1: work is competency. The only thing that's gonna work. And

1224
01:16:58,160 --> 01:17:03,839
Speaker 1: competency is not just do you qualify. It's on both sides,

1225
01:17:03,880 --> 01:17:06,800
Speaker 1: white and black. How qualified are you? You could be

1226
01:17:06,840 --> 01:17:09,120
Speaker 1: so qualified if you're white or black that you can

1227
01:17:09,200 --> 01:17:12,120
Speaker 1: just take time off and then people be like, yo,

1228
01:17:12,200 --> 01:17:16,280
Speaker 1: we still need him. Jim Harbaugh, whether it's him or

1229
01:17:16,720 --> 01:17:20,880
Speaker 1: Sean Payton or if Tony Dunge. The mass said, you

1230
01:17:20,880 --> 01:17:24,440
Speaker 1: know what I'm thinking about coaching? What you're gonna say?

1231
01:17:25,000 --> 01:17:29,280
Speaker 1: Oh no, you see what I'm saying. Y'all need to stop.

1232
01:17:29,320 --> 01:17:31,720
Speaker 1: So let's just make sure we're looking at it the

1233
01:17:31,840 --> 01:17:35,799
Speaker 1: right way because things are different. Things have changed. Speaking

1234
01:17:35,800 --> 01:17:41,439
Speaker 1: of change, the NBA has announced that the All Star

1235
01:17:41,560 --> 01:17:45,440
Speaker 1: Game has some changes in terms of the team selection.

1236
01:17:45,520 --> 01:17:47,720
Speaker 1: I like this, all right. First of all, the All

1237
01:17:47,720 --> 01:17:51,880
Speaker 1: Star reserves chosen by coaches. That's gonna happen in February. Second,

1238
01:17:51,880 --> 01:17:54,840
Speaker 1: blah blah blah, Lebron James team captain Joannice. I ain't

1239
01:17:54,840 --> 01:17:56,599
Speaker 1: gonna ever say his last name because I'm not without

1240
01:17:56,640 --> 01:17:59,639
Speaker 1: you anymore. And I choke on he said, say who

1241
01:18:00,080 --> 01:18:02,839
Speaker 1: used to kill that glass name? I can't do a coopo,

1242
01:18:03,080 --> 01:18:06,720
Speaker 1: I thought to COOPO. I told through that Nigerian on

1243
01:18:06,760 --> 01:18:09,920
Speaker 1: that thing. That thing is sound different. Okay, So anyway,

1244
01:18:10,600 --> 01:18:15,559
Speaker 1: let's talk about what it is now. All Stars the

1245
01:18:15,640 --> 01:18:19,880
Speaker 1: reserve team, which side you're on Yannis team yannest a

1246
01:18:19,960 --> 01:18:25,400
Speaker 1: team Lebron. We'll be decided right before tip off in

1247
01:18:25,439 --> 01:18:29,439
Speaker 1: a draft between Lebron and Jannice, like right before the game.

1248
01:18:29,680 --> 01:18:33,920
Speaker 1: Death's dope. That is dope. You got this one right

1249
01:18:34,000 --> 01:18:37,080
Speaker 1: in b A. Oh I love this. So you know

1250
01:18:37,200 --> 01:18:39,200
Speaker 1: you an All Star, but you don't know you're playing

1251
01:18:39,200 --> 01:18:41,160
Speaker 1: with Lebron, you're playing with Yannese and who else you're

1252
01:18:41,160 --> 01:18:44,559
Speaker 1: playing with. Oh this is so school yard, like I got,

1253
01:18:45,240 --> 01:18:48,360
Speaker 1: I got, I got Steph uh no, no, no, I got,

1254
01:18:48,439 --> 01:18:50,800
Speaker 1: I got. No no, I can't take him, damn it.

1255
01:18:50,920 --> 01:18:54,360
Speaker 1: Oh God, or it's gonna be so sick Jackson. Take

1256
01:18:54,439 --> 01:18:57,160
Speaker 1: him over here, Steph, Curry over there, Luke over there,

1257
01:18:57,520 --> 01:18:59,880
Speaker 1: Yaks over there, and beat over there like they're gon.

1258
01:19:00,280 --> 01:19:02,880
Speaker 1: I got I got. The reason I say I got

1259
01:19:02,920 --> 01:19:04,960
Speaker 1: because there's two things I always tell my team, because

1260
01:19:04,960 --> 01:19:07,559
Speaker 1: every practice I make them pick their own team, because

1261
01:19:07,560 --> 01:19:11,680
Speaker 1: I want them to understand what competition looks like. Competition

1262
01:19:11,680 --> 01:19:14,719
Speaker 1: starts where you compete against yourself first, then you compete

1263
01:19:14,760 --> 01:19:18,920
Speaker 1: against your teammates social circle second, and then you compete

1264
01:19:18,920 --> 01:19:22,160
Speaker 1: against the world at large your opponent last. And I

1265
01:19:22,320 --> 01:19:25,519
Speaker 1: love it when everybody's sitting there like, oh, that's the homie,

1266
01:19:26,080 --> 01:19:27,880
Speaker 1: and he ain't the homie right now because he gotta

1267
01:19:27,920 --> 01:19:30,799
Speaker 1: pick a better team. You gotta pick the best teammate.

1268
01:19:31,280 --> 01:19:33,160
Speaker 1: He ain't looking at you like we the homie, like

1269
01:19:33,479 --> 01:19:37,679
Speaker 1: you know if I'm Lebra and I'm like, damn, Katie

1270
01:19:37,720 --> 01:19:40,160
Speaker 1: my dog. But I gotta tell you Anthony Davis, but

1271
01:19:40,200 --> 01:19:42,720
Speaker 1: he my teammate too. But then I can't take kd

1272
01:19:42,920 --> 01:19:45,759
Speaker 1: next because I gotta get Yoki. I lead a center

1273
01:19:46,320 --> 01:19:50,280
Speaker 1: like sick. But I make my my kids always pick

1274
01:19:50,360 --> 01:19:53,880
Speaker 1: because I want them to feel that the apprehension, that

1275
01:19:54,040 --> 01:19:57,960
Speaker 1: little weirdness, that anxiety of like, oh that's my boy.

1276
01:19:58,160 --> 01:20:01,760
Speaker 1: But I know what I not what I want to do,

1277
01:20:01,840 --> 01:20:05,080
Speaker 1: but what I need to do right. NBA nailed this

1278
01:20:05,120 --> 01:20:07,680
Speaker 1: one man, because they're gonna make them do is go

1279
01:20:07,720 --> 01:20:11,280
Speaker 1: out there and ruin some relationships and in the sake

1280
01:20:11,360 --> 01:20:13,479
Speaker 1: of hey, I just got to get the best thing

1281
01:20:13,920 --> 01:20:16,320
Speaker 1: for me. So it's gonna be funny to watch that.

1282
01:20:16,439 --> 01:20:18,880
Speaker 1: I'm pumped for the All Star Game, not pumped for

1283
01:20:18,920 --> 01:20:21,120
Speaker 1: the Pro Bowl, but I'm going to watch the Pro

1284
01:20:21,200 --> 01:20:24,200
Speaker 1: Bowl to see should I eat Crow? Because there's no

1285
01:20:24,240 --> 01:20:27,439
Speaker 1: way I believe this Pro Bowl is gonna make sense

1286
01:20:27,560 --> 01:20:31,920
Speaker 1: and be something that is entertaining and good for the brand,

1287
01:20:32,040 --> 01:20:36,040
Speaker 1: like flag football. We just saw y'all playing real football

1288
01:20:36,439 --> 01:20:38,320
Speaker 1: and y'all about to play some flag football. There's a

1289
01:20:38,360 --> 01:20:40,800
Speaker 1: part of me that's like, I hope I'm wrong. I

1290
01:20:40,880 --> 01:20:43,120
Speaker 1: pray I'm wrong. Oh, I want to see me be

1291
01:20:43,200 --> 01:20:46,240
Speaker 1: wrong on this one. But when they got to the

1292
01:20:46,280 --> 01:20:49,040
Speaker 1: point where they were just running by a ball carriers

1293
01:20:49,040 --> 01:20:50,519
Speaker 1: and tapping them too hand in touch, I was like, Oh,

1294
01:20:50,560 --> 01:20:54,800
Speaker 1: it's wrap. And then I was like, beyond that, it's

1295
01:20:54,840 --> 01:20:58,160
Speaker 1: just funny to watch because nobody wants to play extra football.

1296
01:20:58,200 --> 01:21:02,479
Speaker 1: I told y'all, nobody chooses football. Football chooses them. And

1297
01:21:02,560 --> 01:21:04,559
Speaker 1: when I played in the Pro Bowl and back in

1298
01:21:04,600 --> 01:21:08,719
Speaker 1: those days, it was after the season, man fool. Look

1299
01:21:09,080 --> 01:21:11,000
Speaker 1: whether we didn't make the playoffs, we gotta wait a

1300
01:21:11,000 --> 01:21:13,960
Speaker 1: month and didn't play real football, boys stop, Boys stop,

1301
01:21:14,720 --> 01:21:16,479
Speaker 1: Or you just made the Super Bowl, you gotta wait

1302
01:21:16,479 --> 01:21:19,759
Speaker 1: a week and play real football again, boys stop. Nobody's

1303
01:21:19,760 --> 01:21:24,200
Speaker 1: trying to play real football, extra real football. Nobody. There's

1304
01:21:24,280 --> 01:21:28,360
Speaker 1: no unconditional love for football except Dick buck Kiss and

1305
01:21:28,439 --> 01:21:31,880
Speaker 1: ray Lewis everybody else. I don't think they really love

1306
01:21:31,920 --> 01:21:35,080
Speaker 1: football to the fullest nobody right, like being real. Come on,

1307
01:21:35,400 --> 01:21:39,439
Speaker 1: that's why the Pro Bowl sucked. It sucked because it

1308
01:21:39,520 --> 01:21:41,320
Speaker 1: was like, man, ain't trying to do this, and let's

1309
01:21:41,360 --> 01:21:44,440
Speaker 1: like I gotta do this, and that check gotta validate

1310
01:21:44,479 --> 01:21:47,960
Speaker 1: me doing this. Right, So that's the game playing right,

1311
01:21:48,400 --> 01:21:50,680
Speaker 1: and they knew it and they were like, damn Pro

1312
01:21:50,720 --> 01:21:53,479
Speaker 1: Bowl sucks. But it's in Hawhiti, so people are still

1313
01:21:53,640 --> 01:21:56,360
Speaker 1: like it and come right, then them numbers start going down,

1314
01:21:56,720 --> 01:21:59,599
Speaker 1: all right, forget it? Moving to Vegas. Everyone loves Vegas. Yeah,

1315
01:21:59,640 --> 01:22:01,720
Speaker 1: we love that. Gets we just a little probo like,

1316
01:22:02,240 --> 01:22:04,439
Speaker 1: especially the players. Man, I ain't playing a real ball.

1317
01:22:06,120 --> 01:22:09,200
Speaker 1: Who heard of that? Excuse me? Then? Cast are just

1318
01:22:09,320 --> 01:22:12,479
Speaker 1: running by each other freese tag. They out there playing

1319
01:22:12,560 --> 01:22:15,920
Speaker 1: eight year old freeze tag and they've grown ass NFL players.

1320
01:22:15,960 --> 01:22:18,080
Speaker 1: So now this is the This is to me the

1321
01:22:18,160 --> 01:22:21,960
Speaker 1: hell Mary Flag football skills Challenge. Y'all been doing the

1322
01:22:21,960 --> 01:22:26,560
Speaker 1: skills challenge. I never watched that in full boring you

1323
01:22:26,560 --> 01:22:28,240
Speaker 1: alret went to the combine. I want to see that.

1324
01:22:28,640 --> 01:22:30,280
Speaker 1: You ain't went to combin. Are gonna see it teen

1325
01:22:30,320 --> 01:22:37,840
Speaker 1: years later? After you slower? Oh, that's trying to run

1326
01:22:37,840 --> 01:22:41,320
Speaker 1: through some combs. Man, we've been seeing that boring put

1327
01:22:41,360 --> 01:22:44,080
Speaker 1: the year olds on, let him do the combine thing.

1328
01:22:44,120 --> 01:22:46,880
Speaker 1: I watched that NFL network. I watched that all day.

1329
01:22:47,200 --> 01:22:52,040
Speaker 1: So point being, I hope the Pro Bowl is good

1330
01:22:52,640 --> 01:22:55,760
Speaker 1: because I am a naysayer. I am not feeling it.

1331
01:22:55,880 --> 01:22:58,639
Speaker 1: Speaking of not feeling it, I'm not feeling the cons

1332
01:22:58,720 --> 01:23:02,840
Speaker 1: comments on men and women, y'all see this, Um, let

1333
01:23:02,840 --> 01:23:05,479
Speaker 1: me just say it. He's his quote is a woman

1334
01:23:05,520 --> 01:23:09,240
Speaker 1: can never compare to the man, not to a man

1335
01:23:09,360 --> 01:23:12,240
Speaker 1: to the man. Oh, he don't win Old Testament or something.

1336
01:23:12,280 --> 01:23:14,760
Speaker 1: I don't know where the hell he is. Quote one

1337
01:23:15,280 --> 01:23:18,639
Speaker 1: woman need to understand their roles. Maybe he said women.

1338
01:23:18,640 --> 01:23:20,400
Speaker 1: I don't want to make him sound like he can't speak.

1339
01:23:21,200 --> 01:23:26,920
Speaker 1: Women need to understand their roles. Oh. I think I've

1340
01:23:27,000 --> 01:23:29,400
Speaker 1: learned in relationships that not only do women need to

1341
01:23:29,479 --> 01:23:33,840
Speaker 1: understand their roles, but men as well. We both need

1342
01:23:33,880 --> 01:23:38,880
Speaker 1: to understand our roles. They're not just rigidly or narrowly defined.

1343
01:23:38,880 --> 01:23:43,960
Speaker 1: Our roles are roles. Are roles because I've been through

1344
01:23:44,040 --> 01:23:49,400
Speaker 1: so many stages of role development. Now I'm gonna say

1345
01:23:49,400 --> 01:23:55,160
Speaker 1: something bad and say something good. His comments sounds sexist, uninformed,

1346
01:23:55,200 --> 01:23:59,040
Speaker 1: and ill informed, which is different. But he did make

1347
01:23:59,080 --> 01:24:02,880
Speaker 1: soul survivor and locked up so so brought some mercy,

1348
01:24:02,960 --> 01:24:08,559
Speaker 1: Like ain't kind of young, jeezs, Like that's parting right now.

1349
01:24:08,600 --> 01:24:10,519
Speaker 1: You get partoned when you say stuff like that. But

1350
01:24:10,560 --> 01:24:12,840
Speaker 1: now let's get real with this. I grew up with

1351
01:24:12,960 --> 01:24:17,160
Speaker 1: my parents. Their roles weren't defined. At least it didn't

1352
01:24:17,200 --> 01:24:18,720
Speaker 1: look that way to me. Maybe I was too young

1353
01:24:18,960 --> 01:24:25,120
Speaker 1: to understand it, but I was like, they're not really defined. Okay.

1354
01:24:25,200 --> 01:24:27,840
Speaker 1: My daddy didn't take out the trash I did. My

1355
01:24:27,920 --> 01:24:32,160
Speaker 1: daddy brought home money. We were on welfare, but then

1356
01:24:32,240 --> 01:24:35,160
Speaker 1: we got off it food stamps, but we got off it.

1357
01:24:35,800 --> 01:24:39,640
Speaker 1: My mom went to work, she brought home money. My

1358
01:24:39,720 --> 01:24:42,880
Speaker 1: mom used to beat up my daddy sometimes. My dad

1359
01:24:42,920 --> 01:24:45,280
Speaker 1: never started any fights, at least I saw. I think

1360
01:24:45,280 --> 01:24:48,280
Speaker 1: he was more of the like the verbal starter and

1361
01:24:48,280 --> 01:24:50,200
Speaker 1: you're like, he's gonna instigate and then you're gonna throw

1362
01:24:50,200 --> 01:24:51,960
Speaker 1: the first point, like what you do? He threw his

1363
01:24:52,040 --> 01:24:55,559
Speaker 1: rocks and hid his hands right. My mom used to

1364
01:24:55,560 --> 01:24:57,400
Speaker 1: put hands on my daddy. She six wants to fifty

1365
01:24:57,439 --> 01:25:01,680
Speaker 1: got them Paul's I was all over the places. I

1366
01:25:01,720 --> 01:25:04,040
Speaker 1: was like, who is who? I never grew up thinking, oh,

1367
01:25:04,040 --> 01:25:06,719
Speaker 1: that's a man's job. My sister took out the trash

1368
01:25:06,720 --> 01:25:10,280
Speaker 1: with me. She also washed dishes. I had to wash dishes.

1369
01:25:10,400 --> 01:25:12,519
Speaker 1: She like washing them, so she did it more. I

1370
01:25:12,600 --> 01:25:15,240
Speaker 1: like the trash, so I did it more. I hate

1371
01:25:15,240 --> 01:25:18,160
Speaker 1: it BACKU, man, like, what the hell? I don't know.

1372
01:25:19,640 --> 01:25:21,720
Speaker 1: But then I got into relationships, and that's probably why

1373
01:25:22,000 --> 01:25:24,280
Speaker 1: I was pretty bad at relationships. One because I didn't

1374
01:25:24,360 --> 01:25:27,000
Speaker 1: want a relationship to work. I really wanted to sabotage

1375
01:25:27,000 --> 01:25:28,880
Speaker 1: them all. I wanted to be single, but just have

1376
01:25:29,000 --> 01:25:32,280
Speaker 1: somebody to boo up with, like to have a companion.

1377
01:25:32,320 --> 01:25:36,920
Speaker 1: I ain't gonna lie. Um. I think my purest of

1378
01:25:36,960 --> 01:25:40,080
Speaker 1: hearts wanted to be married, especially when I was engaged

1379
01:25:40,080 --> 01:25:43,600
Speaker 1: out of college. But that NFL was too fun. It was,

1380
01:25:43,800 --> 01:25:46,759
Speaker 1: I mean it was. It was a slice of heaven.

1381
01:25:46,920 --> 01:25:49,880
Speaker 1: I was like, hell no, everywhere I go, I'm noticed,

1382
01:25:49,960 --> 01:25:54,320
Speaker 1: I'm loved, I'm appreciate it. I ain't even gotta get

1383
01:25:54,360 --> 01:25:59,200
Speaker 1: tattoos on my face to get girls to be interested in. Man. Stop.

1384
01:26:00,120 --> 01:26:03,880
Speaker 1: But I didn't know roles. My role, starting with my role,

1385
01:26:03,960 --> 01:26:07,519
Speaker 1: not her role. My role. So that was part one

1386
01:26:08,560 --> 01:26:11,080
Speaker 1: in every relationship. I started to tighten the boats on

1387
01:26:11,240 --> 01:26:13,880
Speaker 1: learning what a role looks like. I was like, Damn,

1388
01:26:13,920 --> 01:26:20,080
Speaker 1: this is different, these dynamics different. Like bro, grow up.

1389
01:26:21,400 --> 01:26:26,519
Speaker 1: You know what Kanye say? You know I always find out,

1390
01:26:26,640 --> 01:26:31,880
Speaker 1: always find something wrong. You've been playing with my ship

1391
01:26:32,120 --> 01:26:36,400
Speaker 1: just played along. That song always grabs me in the

1392
01:26:36,439 --> 01:26:40,639
Speaker 1: same place, deep in the heart. You mother sucker. I

1393
01:26:40,680 --> 01:26:43,519
Speaker 1: was wrong, but I ain't gonna lie. Some of them

1394
01:26:43,520 --> 01:26:46,120
Speaker 1: girls wrong too. I knew what they wanted, their intentions anyway.

1395
01:26:46,240 --> 01:26:50,640
Speaker 1: I didn't have great role definition or dynamics. Then I

1396
01:26:50,720 --> 01:26:53,320
Speaker 1: met my wife. Oh my god, we're still going through

1397
01:26:53,360 --> 01:27:00,280
Speaker 1: this tug of war, Dangel. We've been married eight going

1398
01:27:00,280 --> 01:27:05,360
Speaker 1: on nine years in June. Good lord, I'm still learning

1399
01:27:05,400 --> 01:27:07,800
Speaker 1: about her. I'm still learning about me. I can't believe it.

1400
01:27:07,920 --> 01:27:10,960
Speaker 1: That's why I know we never getting divorced. Always threatened, though,

1401
01:27:10,960 --> 01:27:12,880
Speaker 1: I said, soon as that last kid out of the house,

1402
01:27:12,920 --> 01:27:16,320
Speaker 1: soon as Olivia's eighteen, she going to Columbia. Look at me,

1403
01:27:16,600 --> 01:27:20,439
Speaker 1: I'm like, because that's why my parents did you know

1404
01:27:20,479 --> 01:27:22,519
Speaker 1: what I mean? There ain't nothing but my trauma speaking.

1405
01:27:23,080 --> 01:27:25,599
Speaker 1: There ain't nothing but my my issues coming to life.

1406
01:27:26,360 --> 01:27:29,360
Speaker 1: I'm projecting. But in all seriousness, I was like, dog,

1407
01:27:29,720 --> 01:27:31,799
Speaker 1: I ain't never getting divorced because This is like a journey.

1408
01:27:31,800 --> 01:27:35,640
Speaker 1: This is such a discovery. I'm wrong so often and

1409
01:27:35,640 --> 01:27:38,160
Speaker 1: I can't even stop myself from being wrong. I get triggered.

1410
01:27:39,760 --> 01:27:41,920
Speaker 1: I get triggered. I'll be like, oh, damn, I'm making

1411
01:27:41,920 --> 01:27:44,880
Speaker 1: like my daddy. I'm like that, ain't even me. Damn,

1412
01:27:44,880 --> 01:27:46,600
Speaker 1: I'm making like my mama. They're even me. That's my

1413
01:27:46,680 --> 01:27:49,400
Speaker 1: uncle right there. Damn, I'm making like him, not even me.

1414
01:27:49,760 --> 01:27:54,000
Speaker 1: So my best days in my marriage are still in

1415
01:27:54,080 --> 01:27:55,679
Speaker 1: front of me, is all I'm saying. And I'm sure

1416
01:27:55,720 --> 01:27:57,960
Speaker 1: she feels the same way. Even though we have a

1417
01:27:58,040 --> 01:28:00,519
Speaker 1: great marriage and great loving marriage and we love each

1418

01:28:20,680 --> 01:28:24,240

Speaker 1: and I hear her say m J MJ. She loves MJ.

1431
01:28:51,960 --> 01:28:54,320
Speaker 1: Not only loves MJ, but looks up to MJ. And

1432
01:28:54,360 --> 01:28:56,840
Speaker 1: it's not shy to show it. She looks up to

1433
01:28:56,880 --> 01:28:59,880
Speaker 1: her big brother m J m J. Girls are better

1434
01:29:00,000 --> 01:29:03,679
Speaker 1: and boys. Yep, girls are better than boys. Now why

1435
01:29:03,720 --> 01:29:06,720
Speaker 1: did she say that? Um? Once you've been listening to

1436
01:29:06,800 --> 01:29:12,000
Speaker 1: be honestly, who runs the world? Girls? I remember when

1437
01:29:12,000 --> 01:29:14,160
Speaker 1: that song came out, was like, oh God, But then

1438
01:29:14,200 --> 01:29:16,120
Speaker 1: I was like James Brown, it isn't man as well,

1439
01:29:16,280 --> 01:29:18,200
Speaker 1: So I'm like, man, we're not gonna stop making these

1440
01:29:18,240 --> 01:29:23,280
Speaker 1: songs binary like pick aside. Anyway, she has not heard

1441
01:29:23,320 --> 01:29:27,719
Speaker 1: that song. Let me stop. Um. She said it because

1442
01:29:27,760 --> 01:29:33,400
Speaker 1: she went to her brother's classmates birthday party this weekend

1443
01:29:33,560 --> 01:29:37,640
Speaker 1: and it was all boys basically tearing it up. A

1444
01:29:37,720 --> 01:29:39,679
Speaker 1: couple of girls there, but it was just borried out,

1445
01:29:39,840 --> 01:29:42,800
Speaker 1: boy it out. And I'm sure because she kept coming

1446
01:29:42,840 --> 01:29:45,640
Speaker 1: back here and there saying they said this. One was

1447
01:29:45,680 --> 01:29:48,559
Speaker 1: saying dumb one was saying stupid one hitter, one hitter,

1448

1450
01:29:53,520 --> 01:29:58,240
Speaker 1: she's seven. Um, I'm sure she heard that boys are

1451
01:29:58,240 --> 01:30:01,240
Speaker 1: better than girls. That's how little kids play, right, So

1452
01:30:01,360 --> 01:30:04,200
Speaker 1: she had to flip it. M Jack, M Jack, girls

1453
01:30:04,200 --> 01:30:07,960
Speaker 1: are better than bullies. I yep, I said girls are

1454
01:30:07,960 --> 01:30:10,799
Speaker 1: better than bullys. M J was like he was stuck,

1455
01:30:12,080 --> 01:30:14,759
Speaker 1: you know one, because he didn't want to have an argument.

1456
01:30:15,160 --> 01:30:18,400
Speaker 1: He was watching his uh iPad, he was watching who

1457
01:30:18,479 --> 01:30:21,320
Speaker 1: is he watching? Oh, pep Pepper Pig was coming on

1458
01:30:21,439 --> 01:30:26,680
Speaker 1: for him and Captain Underpants. I wanted to him, but

1459
01:30:26,760 --> 01:30:31,360
Speaker 1: too He was like, how do I respond to that

1460
01:30:31,400 --> 01:30:35,040
Speaker 1: without putting her down? And that's when daddy jumped in.

1461
01:30:35,160 --> 01:30:37,599
Speaker 1: And this is why it's so important to be involved parents,

1462
01:30:37,840 --> 01:30:41,479
Speaker 1: to be their parents. We'll get into those conversations later.

1463
01:30:41,640 --> 01:30:44,400
Speaker 1: The difference between the nuclear parent you're there and you're

1464
01:30:44,439 --> 01:30:47,519
Speaker 1: not there, but you're checking in, big difference. We'll get there.

1465
01:30:48,439 --> 01:30:51,240
Speaker 1: Another conversation and the media. I jump in. I said,

1466
01:30:51,240 --> 01:30:53,360
Speaker 1: whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa? Because I don't want

1467
01:30:53,360 --> 01:30:55,000
Speaker 1: to like you know me, I don't like the map solutes.

1468
01:30:55,160 --> 01:30:58,679
Speaker 1: I don't like them. Alls all shouldn't speak for all.

1469
01:30:58,880 --> 01:31:02,040
Speaker 1: One shouldn't speak for all, should say And she said

1470
01:31:02,680 --> 01:31:07,160
Speaker 1: girls all are better than boys all And I said, no, Mama,

1471
01:31:07,600 --> 01:31:10,639
Speaker 1: I said, some girls are better at some things, better

1472
01:31:10,680 --> 01:31:14,360
Speaker 1: than boys. But then some boys are better than girls

1473
01:31:14,400 --> 01:31:17,639
Speaker 1: at some things. And I can see her little eyebrow.

1474
01:31:18,320 --> 01:31:20,000
Speaker 1: She looked at me and she got that ice cube

1475
01:31:20,040 --> 01:31:23,479
Speaker 1: eyebrow right now, like what you saying? You don't like girls.

1476
01:31:23,520 --> 01:31:26,599
Speaker 1: I was like, wait a minute, no, and I said, look,

1477
01:31:27,600 --> 01:31:30,800
Speaker 1: MJ is faster than you. Now, he's also three years older,

1478
01:31:30,840 --> 01:31:34,160
Speaker 1: but he is faster than her. I said, and you're

1479
01:31:34,200 --> 01:31:38,080
Speaker 1: more flexible than him. And then it lit up in

1480
01:31:38,120 --> 01:31:40,840
Speaker 1: her head. She's like, yep. She said, that's right, m J.

1481
01:31:40,920 --> 01:31:43,000
Speaker 1: When when you come home, you're gonna run, and I

1482
01:31:43,040 --> 01:31:44,880
Speaker 1: want to see you run your fastest. And when I

1483
01:31:44,920 --> 01:31:47,320
Speaker 1: go home, I'm a flexible and I want to be

1484
01:31:47,360 --> 01:31:49,400
Speaker 1: as flexible as I could be. I was like, that's

1485
01:31:49,439 --> 01:31:51,960
Speaker 1: not how you're you're flexible, But the point was taking.

1486
01:31:52,520 --> 01:31:55,080
Speaker 1: She realized she had power in doing some things even

1487
01:31:55,160 --> 01:31:58,080
Speaker 1: better than her brother. But he also was like, yep,

1488
01:31:58,720 --> 01:32:01,360
Speaker 1: I got power in doing things better, and that's how

1489
01:32:01,360 --> 01:32:05,040
Speaker 1: it should be nuanced, right, not absolute. You can do

1490
01:32:05,120 --> 01:32:07,720
Speaker 1: some things better than your brother, and he could do

1491
01:32:07,760 --> 01:32:10,439
Speaker 1: some things better than you. But who runs the world.

1492
01:32:10,720 --> 01:32:14,040
Speaker 1: Neither one of y'all, both of y'all, if anything. That's

1493
01:32:14,040 --> 01:32:16,679
Speaker 1: how we gotta look at it. Now, speaking of looking

1494
01:32:16,720 --> 01:32:19,680
Speaker 1: at that stuff, let's look at the whole concept of

1495
01:32:19,760 --> 01:32:23,720
Speaker 1: marriage differently. Because Lala Anthony just went out there has

1496
01:32:23,800 --> 01:32:27,040
Speaker 1: some comments uh is her last name? To Anthony, she said,

1497
01:32:27,360 --> 01:32:29,639
Speaker 1: well have you have you divorced me and keep the name.

1498
01:32:29,800 --> 01:32:32,400
Speaker 1: I'm looking at you like, oh oh, I should have

1499
01:32:32,479 --> 01:32:35,720
Speaker 1: known from hello it wasn't gonna work. I wish it

1500
01:32:35,760 --> 01:32:38,840
Speaker 1: will be Anna Marie Wiley and we five years divorced. Like, girl,

1501
01:32:39,240 --> 01:32:41,160
Speaker 1: you took all my money. Can't you take your Can

1502
01:32:41,160 --> 01:32:43,920
Speaker 1: I get my name back? You're taking myney, you're taking

1503
01:32:43,920 --> 01:32:46,759
Speaker 1: my money. I want my name at least right. Lala

1504
01:32:46,840 --> 01:32:50,280
Speaker 1: Anthony thinks that most married people are quote miserable wrong,

1505
01:32:52,960 --> 01:32:55,679
Speaker 1: and that people don't want to get married anymore. Wrong.

1506
01:32:56,360 --> 01:33:02,599
Speaker 1: So divorced as just sound divorce just looking at life

1507
01:33:02,600 --> 01:33:05,760
Speaker 1: through what you're going through, your circumstances. That's how people

1508
01:33:05,760 --> 01:33:07,080
Speaker 1: come to l A all the time. They're like, l

1509
01:33:07,160 --> 01:33:10,320
Speaker 1: A is just full of Mercedes, and like Ferrari's wrong,

1510
01:33:10,680 --> 01:33:15,200
Speaker 1: there are more Honda's, Hondas and Toyota's. You just maybe

1511
01:33:15,240 --> 01:33:17,960
Speaker 1: only looking at those things, or maybe you got one

1512
01:33:18,000 --> 01:33:20,360
Speaker 1: and that's all you see. But miss me with that

1513
01:33:20,439 --> 01:33:27,200
Speaker 1: selective perception, La la, who looks amazing in BMF Right now?

1514
01:33:27,640 --> 01:33:30,639
Speaker 1: I kind of saying, WHOA, I can see why. That's

1515
01:33:31,040 --> 01:33:34,439
Speaker 1: what's meet your brother? I forget his name. Uh dang

1516
01:33:34,680 --> 01:33:37,320
Speaker 1: the other one whatever her name is, so like a

1517
01:33:37,439 --> 01:33:41,040
Speaker 1: t he holling at her, I see why. Um, But

1518
01:33:44,120 --> 01:33:45,519
Speaker 1: I got two of my best friends who have just

1519
01:33:45,600 --> 01:33:48,160
Speaker 1: recently got divorced the last couple of years. So this

1520
01:33:48,360 --> 01:33:52,160
Speaker 1: just sound like divorce talk, divorces in the air, divorces

1521
01:33:52,400 --> 01:33:55,439
Speaker 1: in the air, and marriages in the air. That's why

1522
01:33:55,439 --> 01:33:57,040
Speaker 1: some of you people getting divorce because you get married,

1523
01:33:57,040 --> 01:34:00,920
Speaker 1: get divorced. Half of y'all at least. But she sounds

1524
01:34:00,960 --> 01:34:03,280
Speaker 1: like the person that got kicked out the party. And

1525
01:34:03,320 --> 01:34:05,000
Speaker 1: now all of a sudden, the party was whacked. You

1526
01:34:05,000 --> 01:34:07,040
Speaker 1: were You were in that party for eleven years, Now

1527
01:34:07,200 --> 01:34:10,280
Speaker 1: you're out. It's nobody didn't even like that part. Nobody

1528
01:34:10,280 --> 01:34:12,960
Speaker 1: even want to go there. The music so DJ week,

1529
01:34:14,160 --> 01:34:17,080
Speaker 1: But was it that bad when you were in it?

1530
01:34:17,200 --> 01:34:20,600
Speaker 1: Was it that bad when you got into it? You know,

1531
01:34:20,680 --> 01:34:24,200
Speaker 1: the whitey is um. For every relationship that ends, you

1532
01:34:24,280 --> 01:34:27,479
Speaker 1: spend half of that time breaking up. So five and

1533
01:34:27,479 --> 01:34:31,240
Speaker 1: a half years of eleven year marriage with Carmelo, the Beast,

1534
01:34:31,560 --> 01:34:36,360
Speaker 1: the Great Carmelo sound a little salty, but I know

1535
01:34:36,439 --> 01:34:38,960
Speaker 1: she not because I do hear this conversation a lot.

1536
01:34:39,120 --> 01:34:44,559
Speaker 1: Are you happy, Marcels for real? Shut your ass? No,

1537
01:34:44,680 --> 01:34:47,600
Speaker 1: I'm unhappy and I'm staying um. I will say this

1538
01:34:47,800 --> 01:34:51,599
Speaker 1: to your point. It's a lot of work. And I've

1539
01:34:51,640 --> 01:34:57,640
Speaker 1: never seen anybody go through work training, camp work, uh

1540
01:34:58,000 --> 01:35:01,760
Speaker 1: hours on Wall Street as an analyst, like real grindwork

1541
01:35:02,479 --> 01:35:08,120
Speaker 1: and say it's easy and say it's fun, or say

1542
01:35:08,160 --> 01:35:13,040
Speaker 1: it's not miserable training kids, Yeah it's miserable. Did I

1543
01:35:13,120 --> 01:35:18,080
Speaker 1: quit the team? No? Uh. I think you gotta have

1544
01:35:18,200 --> 01:35:21,680
Speaker 1: a mindset about marriage that you getting married for yourself

1545
01:35:21,760 --> 01:35:25,559
Speaker 1: first and your relationship first. You and how you're feeling

1546
01:35:25,560 --> 01:35:27,880
Speaker 1: in that relationship them and how they're making you feel

1547
01:35:27,880 --> 01:35:31,439
Speaker 1: in that relationship. You guys in that union, you're getting

1548
01:35:31,439 --> 01:35:35,799
Speaker 1: married for yourself and that relationship first. But your ass

1549
01:35:35,840 --> 01:35:40,719
Speaker 1: better stay married for the kids. Like I ain't lying,

1550
01:35:41,160 --> 01:35:47,320
Speaker 1: like the kids become the family, the unit becomes the glue.

1551
01:35:48,160 --> 01:35:50,759
Speaker 1: So you started to glue this together in the first

1552
01:35:50,760 --> 01:35:52,800
Speaker 1: place because of how you felt, how she felt, how

1553
01:35:52,880 --> 01:35:56,920
Speaker 1: y'all felt. But what keeps, what takes it from Elmer's

1554
01:35:56,960 --> 01:36:00,920
Speaker 1: glue to crazy glue to like it just can't be

1555
01:36:00,960 --> 01:36:05,240
Speaker 1: pulled apart, has to be the family unit, you, her, her,

1556
01:36:05,840 --> 01:36:10,880
Speaker 1: You and them kids. Let me tell you why, because

1557
01:36:10,920 --> 01:36:16,439
Speaker 1: those kids are the recreation of yourself in essence, but

1558
01:36:16,560 --> 01:36:20,240
Speaker 1: in a potentially greater form. And that's the beauty of

1559
01:36:20,280 --> 01:36:25,280
Speaker 1: this circle of life, cycle of life if you do

1560
01:36:25,360 --> 01:36:30,360
Speaker 1: it that way, staying in that relationship. Oh the balancing

1561
01:36:30,400 --> 01:36:33,200
Speaker 1: act you give your kids. Me driving my daughter to

1562
01:36:33,360 --> 01:36:40,519
Speaker 1: school today and telling her boys or girls, neither one

1563
01:36:41,040 --> 01:36:45,559
Speaker 1: runs the world, neither one, we do both of y'all,

1564
01:36:46,400 --> 01:36:48,879
Speaker 1: that balancing that I would have missed that right. Divorce

1565
01:36:49,000 --> 01:36:51,400
Speaker 1: makes you miss those moments. Divorce has you on the

1566
01:36:51,479 --> 01:36:55,000
Speaker 1: schedule work one week, you all in the other week,

1567
01:36:55,880 --> 01:37:00,800
Speaker 1: part time mama, part time daddy. And it just sad

1568
01:37:00,880 --> 01:37:07,280
Speaker 1: to see how family is just decaying, and worse, the

1569
01:37:07,520 --> 01:37:12,160
Speaker 1: concept of family is decaying. Most married people are miserable.

1570
01:37:12,280 --> 01:37:17,960
Speaker 1: Most really maybe they're on that train to divorce because

1571
01:37:18,000 --> 01:37:20,760
Speaker 1: I know a lot of happily married people who have

1572
01:37:20,880 --> 01:37:25,080
Speaker 1: to work on it, who maybe looked at as miserable,

1573
01:37:25,160 --> 01:37:27,599
Speaker 1: but really they're just putting in work, and that's how

1574
01:37:27,600 --> 01:37:31,200
Speaker 1: it's supposed to be. We're not in the infatuation stage anymore.

1575
01:37:31,360 --> 01:37:33,479
Speaker 1: We're not in the mall looking at her at hot

1576
01:37:33,520 --> 01:37:37,240
Speaker 1: dog on the stick anymore. It's not that it's real grind.

1577
01:37:37,640 --> 01:37:42,360
Speaker 1: It's three kids looking at you saying, Mama, Mama, mama, daddy,

1578
01:37:42,600 --> 01:37:46,280
Speaker 1: need this, need this, want this, gotta have it, and

1579
01:37:46,520 --> 01:37:51,280
Speaker 1: you still gotta find time for yourself. I just don't

1580
01:37:51,320 --> 01:37:56,920
Speaker 1: think that all marriages are bad. Some marriages are, some aren't.

1581
01:37:57,560 --> 01:38:01,120
Speaker 1: I don't think that most married people are miserable. I

1582
01:38:01,120 --> 01:38:03,800
Speaker 1: think most married people are working on it and some

1583
01:38:03,920 --> 01:38:08,120
Speaker 1: are going to found But don't get it twisted. You

1584
01:38:08,160 --> 01:38:10,920
Speaker 1: put in eleven grade years with the mellow, and um,

1585
01:38:11,200 --> 01:38:14,040
Speaker 1: I'm eight in, so how about me in three more

1586
01:38:14,040 --> 01:38:16,439
Speaker 1: of it. Let me make sure I pass y'all before

1587
01:38:16,479 --> 01:38:19,680
Speaker 1: I start talking too much. But the concept of marriage,

1588
01:38:19,920 --> 01:38:22,960
Speaker 1: man is taking some hits. Hopefully guys like myself and

1589
01:38:23,040 --> 01:38:25,439
Speaker 1: others who stay with it, stay committed and understand it's

1590
01:38:25,479 --> 01:38:30,679
Speaker 1: about us and the family. Unit can uplift his image. Oh,

1591
01:38:30,760 --> 01:38:35,120
Speaker 1: let's talk about something that needs to be uplifted. All

1592
01:38:35,240 --> 01:38:38,679
Speaker 1: the talk about this article right here where men spend

1593
01:38:38,840 --> 01:38:43,240
Speaker 1: seven hours a year hiding in the bathroom. You know

1594
01:38:43,280 --> 01:38:47,439
Speaker 1: what needs to be uplifted, the male's ego. You know

1595
01:38:47,479 --> 01:38:52,240
Speaker 1: what needs to be uplifted. That men are emotional. We

1596
01:38:52,320 --> 01:38:54,880
Speaker 1: need to bring that conversation to like damn right, I

1597
01:38:54,880 --> 01:39:00,519
Speaker 1: said it. Men. Men are looking for escapism right, like

1598
01:39:00,520 --> 01:39:04,760
Speaker 1: like dignable planet. Sounds like a diggable planet song, right, escapism?

1599
01:39:04,840 --> 01:39:08,920
Speaker 1: M hm hm yep. We go to the bathroom and

1600
01:39:09,040 --> 01:39:13,559
Speaker 1: high from our wives. Miserable was right. No, we go

1601
01:39:13,680 --> 01:39:16,240
Speaker 1: high from our kids, we go high from our boss,

1602
01:39:16,320 --> 01:39:19,240
Speaker 1: we go high from our employees. We're just going high.

1603
01:39:19,360 --> 01:39:25,160
Speaker 1: Why Well, it was several reasons one men and I

1604
01:39:25,160 --> 01:39:27,760
Speaker 1: thought it would be hired for seven hours for a

1605
01:39:27,760 --> 01:39:30,360
Speaker 1: whole year. I think it actually is. I know, I'll

1606
01:39:30,400 --> 01:39:32,479
Speaker 1: go in there and my legs just fall off, they

1607
01:39:32,479 --> 01:39:35,479
Speaker 1: start cramping up, dead leg I can't even get up.

1608
01:39:35,600 --> 01:39:41,080
Speaker 1: I'll be on that twitet for thirty minutes, Instagram, social emails,

1609
01:39:41,200 --> 01:39:46,880
Speaker 1: to Twitter, text, looking at my wife just hit me.

1610
01:39:46,960 --> 01:39:50,720
Speaker 1: I'm like Lalla said, I'm miserable. I'm gonna play it off, right,

1611
01:39:51,439 --> 01:39:56,080
Speaker 1: But in all seriousness, men are different, our frequencies different

1612
01:39:56,080 --> 01:40:00,519
Speaker 1: in general. Right, we deal with the world that beats

1613
01:40:00,560 --> 01:40:02,519
Speaker 1: us up a lot of times because we try to

1614
01:40:02,520 --> 01:40:05,559
Speaker 1: be logical and it tries to be emotional and it's

1615
01:40:05,600 --> 01:40:09,400
Speaker 1: the collision. Collision and know those attributes, those attributes, just

1616
01:40:09,479 --> 01:40:13,960
Speaker 1: go at it. And I'm like, damn, I'm living in

1617
01:40:14,000 --> 01:40:17,520
Speaker 1: the world where everyone wants to talk about the journey

1618
01:40:17,680 --> 01:40:19,599
Speaker 1: and I just want to get to the destination. Like

1619
01:40:19,600 --> 01:40:23,040
Speaker 1: where we going with this? Right in conversation? You know

1620
01:40:23,200 --> 01:40:26,680
Speaker 1: us dudes, where is this going? She's like, let's just

1621

Speaker 1: go and we'll figure it out. Right, my kids, Dad,

1622
01:40:30,880 --> 01:40:33,000

Speaker 1: this person thing? You'll be thinking, look at what? So

1624
01:40:35,920 --> 01:40:38,679
Speaker 1: you just need sometimes a TV time out. Just go somewhere,

1625
01:40:38,760 --> 01:40:42,599
Speaker 1: tap out, man, your wife, your kids, your world. It's

1626

01:40:45,680 --> 01:40:48,360
Speaker 1: I just sit there and my legs just going to sleep,

1628
01:40:48,400 --> 01:40:50,360
Speaker 1: and it's the best feeling until you've got to get up.

1629
01:40:51,320 --> 01:40:57,320
Speaker 1: Oh man. It's like that's what's going on for most people. Now.

Speaker 1: you can just see it. She's wearing it. Me I'm

1642
01:41:40,560 --> 01:41:42,240
Speaker 1: not wearing it, but I'm about to go on that

1643
01:41:42,280 --> 01:41:45,479
Speaker 1: toilet and show you what I got on, put that

1644
01:41:45,560 --> 01:41:50,000
Speaker 1: damn armor and suit down, and say come on, enough

1645
01:41:50,560 --> 01:41:54,840
Speaker 1: is enough? Oh man, Let's talk about these badass kids

1646
01:41:54,840 --> 01:41:58,479
Speaker 1: and this teacher that slams a kid for calling him

1647
01:41:58,520 --> 01:42:01,760
Speaker 1: the end word, and another video out there word this

1648
01:42:01,920 --> 01:42:05,280
Speaker 1: girl is yelling at our teacher, you're not gonna put

1649
01:42:05,320 --> 01:42:07,880
Speaker 1: your hands on me. But I don't think the teacher

1650
01:42:07,920 --> 01:42:10,920
Speaker 1: put their hands on the girl. I'm not sure, but

1651
01:42:11,040 --> 01:42:15,760
Speaker 1: all I know is seeing too many videos of these

1652
01:42:15,840 --> 01:42:20,960
Speaker 1: badass kids. I'm not gonna speculate on their backgrounds, their

1653
01:42:21,000 --> 01:42:24,479
Speaker 1: family situation and dynamics. Um, even though there are numbers

1654
01:42:24,479 --> 01:42:32,320
Speaker 1: to support stereotyping and guessing. UM educated guesses. I will say,

1655
01:42:35,560 --> 01:42:41,160
Speaker 1: here's the thing. I'm looking at it like one, the

1656
01:42:41,240 --> 01:42:44,360
Speaker 1: inn word one. I didn't like the teacher in that moment,

1657
01:42:44,400 --> 01:42:46,920
Speaker 1: because a teacher who gets called the N word has

1658
01:42:46,960 --> 01:42:51,320
Speaker 1: a moment to teach. He has uh, some conflicting messages,

1659
01:42:51,360 --> 01:42:53,840
Speaker 1: but it's time to talk through it. Black people know

1660
01:42:53,960 --> 01:42:57,040
Speaker 1: that it's a weird place to have the inn word

1661
01:42:57,160 --> 01:43:02,519
Speaker 1: conversation amongst others, because it's just makes you sound like

1662
01:43:02,560 --> 01:43:05,200
Speaker 1: the biggest hypocrite in the world. Oh man, I use

1663
01:43:05,280 --> 01:43:08,880
Speaker 1: it because it's uh it means king, or I say

1664
01:43:08,920 --> 01:43:11,760
Speaker 1: it because you know, I only say that he not

1665
01:43:11,880 --> 01:43:13,519
Speaker 1: the e er. Or I only say it as a

1666
01:43:13,640 --> 01:43:17,880
Speaker 1: term of endearment. Oh. So, you grab the poison, try

1667
01:43:17,960 --> 01:43:21,040
Speaker 1: to distill it, and you know, purify it, and then

1668
01:43:21,040 --> 01:43:23,479
Speaker 1: throw it at somebody. Would you want some purified poison

1669
01:43:23,520 --> 01:43:28,320
Speaker 1: throwing at you? Nope? Oh man, the biggest hypocrite. License

1670
01:43:28,400 --> 01:43:30,640
Speaker 1: to say it everywhere I go out here. Some of

1671
01:43:30,640 --> 01:43:33,080
Speaker 1: the homies I used to say it. First of all, disclaimer,

1672
01:43:33,080 --> 01:43:35,639
Speaker 1: I used to say it until like ten fifteen years ago. Whatever.

1673
01:43:36,280 --> 01:43:40,080
Speaker 1: Um um, so I'm not holier than that, y'all know me. Um,

1674
01:43:40,120 --> 01:43:45,120
Speaker 1: But I don't say it anymore. Inn word. You say it,

1675
01:43:46,720 --> 01:43:51,440
Speaker 1: license to say it in song and culture amongst the homies.

1676
01:43:52,160 --> 01:43:58,880
Speaker 1: But when the six one hundreds of millimeter, which is

1677
01:43:58,920 --> 01:44:04,240
Speaker 1: skin complexion and skin epidermis, when it's that depth, like

1678
01:44:04,280 --> 01:44:09,000
Speaker 1: if yours is white, oh, you can't say it. Even though.

1679
01:44:09,000 --> 01:44:12,439
Speaker 1: I remember going to the Rose Bowl and literally a

1680
01:44:13,160 --> 01:44:17,280
Speaker 1: white kid comes up to me like thirteen, how myrself's

1681
01:44:17,280 --> 01:44:18,880
Speaker 1: gotta get a picture with you? I'm talking to you know,

1682
01:44:19,120 --> 01:44:21,479
Speaker 1: I'm like, yeah, yeah, yeah, what's up man? And you know,

1683
01:44:21,600 --> 01:44:24,320
Speaker 1: we're waiting on the songs to come on. And then

1684
01:44:24,360 --> 01:44:27,679
Speaker 1: I heard tim four boom boom boom, clap for what

1685
01:44:28,640 --> 01:44:32,240
Speaker 1: and that little white kid said it. And I looked

1686
01:44:32,240 --> 01:44:36,000
Speaker 1: at him and I was like, I don't even say that,

1687
01:44:36,120 --> 01:44:39,400
Speaker 1: I'm thinking this And he just said it to me

1688
01:44:39,640 --> 01:44:44,160
Speaker 1: while asking for a picture from me. Then I panned

1689
01:44:44,240 --> 01:44:47,200
Speaker 1: up as I was looking at him like not mad,

1690
01:44:47,240 --> 01:44:52,840
Speaker 1: but just like damn. And I panned up and not

1691
01:44:53,000 --> 01:44:56,679
Speaker 1: only was hearing as I panned up the whole crowd,

1692
01:44:56,720 --> 01:45:00,080
Speaker 1: which was mostly white. It's so jay Z Beyonce on

1693
01:45:00,200 --> 01:45:03,880
Speaker 1: sirt echo it. I mean, it didn't get quiet, it

1694
01:45:03,880 --> 01:45:07,040
Speaker 1: didn't go clap for up, it went clap for up,

1695
01:45:07,040 --> 01:45:10,280
Speaker 1: boom boom. I was like, everybody said, said it, and

1696
01:45:10,320 --> 01:45:16,519
Speaker 1: then I looked up. Jay said it, all right, let's

1697
01:45:16,560 --> 01:45:19,920
Speaker 1: take this pick. I mean, I felt like the culture

1698
01:45:19,960 --> 01:45:22,960
Speaker 1: gave him the license. But then you see instances like

1699
01:45:23,040 --> 01:45:25,320
Speaker 1: this where the teacher is slamming the kid for calming

1700
01:45:25,400 --> 01:45:28,439
Speaker 1: the work. You're like, we're side, are we on? What?

1701
01:45:28,640 --> 01:45:31,240
Speaker 1: Where are we with this? I just think it's silly.

1702
01:45:31,280 --> 01:45:34,160
Speaker 1: I just think it's goofy to say something, but then

1703
01:45:34,240 --> 01:45:41,559
Speaker 1: say only I can say it as a culture, and yeah,

1704
01:45:41,600 --> 01:45:43,800
Speaker 1: I hear everybody, Oh no, you can do that. That's

1705
01:45:43,840 --> 01:45:47,360
Speaker 1: your family, that's your culture. But then I wouldn't say

1706
01:45:47,400 --> 01:45:51,040
Speaker 1: it aloud to everybody else, especially a sing along like

1707
01:45:51,280 --> 01:45:54,960
Speaker 1: what is music? Sing along? Like repeat my lyrics? Oh,

1708
01:45:55,000 --> 01:45:56,840
Speaker 1: by the way, repeat what I just said, but don't

1709
01:45:56,880 --> 01:45:59,439
Speaker 1: say that. I wouldn't do that because I'm also the

1710
01:45:59,479 --> 01:46:02,360
Speaker 1: same guy who grew up. I didn't care about mama jokes.

1711
01:46:02,400 --> 01:46:04,559
Speaker 1: I used to think that was the corniest ship alive.

1712
01:46:05,080 --> 01:46:06,960
Speaker 1: Somebody come to school and tell me about your mama

1713
01:46:07,000 --> 01:46:09,400
Speaker 1: and you got mad. I'm like, oh, we don't even

1714
01:46:09,439 --> 01:46:14,320
Speaker 1: know your mama. One two, why does it matter? It's

1715
01:46:14,360 --> 01:46:16,799
Speaker 1: just a word like he's like, oh, he you're losing.

1716
01:46:17,080 --> 01:46:19,519
Speaker 1: You're losing the joke battle. You're losing in the dozens

1717
01:46:19,520 --> 01:46:22,639
Speaker 1: and you're like, oh your mama short, Oh, don't say

1718
01:46:22,640 --> 01:46:26,240
Speaker 1: nothing about my mama. Okay, you short, like you shrugged

1719
01:46:26,320 --> 01:46:28,360
Speaker 1: your mama short? And cats getting now. I was like, man,

1720
01:46:28,400 --> 01:46:29,880
Speaker 1: I was just looking at these cats like dog, y'all

1721
01:46:29,880 --> 01:46:34,120
Speaker 1: so damn foods, hypocrites and contradicting y'allselves, y'all getting mad

1722
01:46:34,160 --> 01:46:36,760
Speaker 1: at this, y'all killing each other. But then y'all can't

1723
01:46:36,760 --> 01:46:39,719
Speaker 1: talk about his mama. And then I really felt weird

1724
01:46:39,760 --> 01:46:42,800
Speaker 1: because cats, you know, sometimes somebody lost their mom and

1725
01:46:42,840 --> 01:46:46,200
Speaker 1: then somebody would say it against them and that cat

1726
01:46:46,200 --> 01:46:48,080
Speaker 1: wouldn't even get mad, just like me. If you talk

1727
01:46:48,080 --> 01:46:50,200
Speaker 1: about my mama right now, she's dead, y'all know it.

1728
01:46:50,800 --> 01:46:53,679
Speaker 1: I'm not mad, like fool, you don't even know my mama.

1729
01:46:53,720 --> 01:46:58,920
Speaker 1: What you're gonna say, like opec respect on what it's

1730
01:46:58,920 --> 01:47:01,160
Speaker 1: a joke, food, But it's not a joke. When you

1731
01:47:01,160 --> 01:47:03,960
Speaker 1: say the N word, So I don't understand it. It's

1732
01:47:04,000 --> 01:47:06,040
Speaker 1: a joke to you and your homies, but it's not

1733
01:47:06,080 --> 01:47:08,920
Speaker 1: a joke to anybody who's not black. But then the

1734
01:47:08,960 --> 01:47:12,280
Speaker 1: definition of black is so damn loose. Let me stop.

1735
01:47:12,360 --> 01:47:15,400
Speaker 1: I said that last episode that why are you still

1736
01:47:15,400 --> 01:47:18,320
Speaker 1: trying to get away by like walking both sides of

1737
01:47:18,400 --> 01:47:21,559
Speaker 1: this fence. They're really trying to like climb both sides

1738
01:47:21,600 --> 01:47:23,920
Speaker 1: of this fence with this N word just silling to me.

1739
01:47:24,320 --> 01:47:27,320
Speaker 1: Either drop it or make up a new word that's

1740
01:47:27,360 --> 01:47:29,599
Speaker 1: supposed to mean the N word, Like, it's not that hard.

1741
01:47:29,920 --> 01:47:31,720
Speaker 1: You ever look at the dictionary? You know what I mean?

1742
01:47:31,760 --> 01:47:34,680
Speaker 1: Pages is in it? Let mean words in it? Make

1743
01:47:35,000 --> 01:47:38,400
Speaker 1: one more up call call every black person that one.

1744
01:47:38,680 --> 01:47:40,919
Speaker 1: And you don't even gotta say it's a term of endearment.

1745
01:47:41,160 --> 01:47:45,719
Speaker 1: We're gonna be able to tell. The word is cats

1746
01:47:45,720 --> 01:47:48,519
Speaker 1: to be trying to use ninja ninja is hilarious. Um,

1747
01:47:48,600 --> 01:47:52,960
Speaker 1: the word is I can't even think of it. Let's

1748
01:47:53,000 --> 01:47:56,479
Speaker 1: go with ninja, all right, that doesn't sound bad, right?

1749
01:47:56,640 --> 01:47:58,519
Speaker 1: My son wants to be in ninja. He says it

1750
01:47:58,560 --> 01:48:00,080
Speaker 1: all the time. That's why he takes take on. Know

1751
01:48:00,800 --> 01:48:02,920
Speaker 1: I laugh at it all time, But let's stop with

1752
01:48:03,080 --> 01:48:09,160
Speaker 1: that one. And this generation is I don't know, it's

1753
01:48:09,200 --> 01:48:13,120
Speaker 1: all bad these confrontations. Look at my kids school. They

1754
01:48:13,160 --> 01:48:16,200
Speaker 1: call all their teachers by the first name. Look. I

1755
01:48:16,240 --> 01:48:19,000
Speaker 1: see some of these kids who are like, I respect authority,

1756
01:48:19,040 --> 01:48:21,240
Speaker 1: but I don't have to like it, and they speak

1757
01:48:21,320 --> 01:48:23,840
Speaker 1: up for themselves. I like that part. This is like

1758
01:48:23,880 --> 01:48:26,360
Speaker 1: the funk around and find out generation kind of like,

1759
01:48:27,560 --> 01:48:30,720
Speaker 1: watch how you come with these kids. Now, obviously we're

1760
01:48:30,720 --> 01:48:32,880
Speaker 1: only gonna see the extreme examples when these kids are

1761
01:48:32,920 --> 01:48:37,040
Speaker 1: really out of line. But I'm sure there's in common discourse,

1762
01:48:37,160 --> 01:48:41,120
Speaker 1: just normal conversations where they're challenging their teachers to be like, yo,

1763
01:48:41,160 --> 01:48:44,160
Speaker 1: come at me right, And we don't hear enough about

1764
01:48:44,200 --> 01:48:46,840
Speaker 1: those stories. So I'm just watching this funk around and

1765
01:48:46,880 --> 01:48:51,559
Speaker 1: find out generations see what they're talking about. But I

1766
01:48:51,720 --> 01:48:54,519
Speaker 1: tell these kids one thing. Here's here's what the back

1767
01:48:54,560 --> 01:48:57,719
Speaker 1: of the bottle says. Here's the warning label talk ship

1768
01:48:57,800 --> 01:49:01,600
Speaker 1: to an adult, a man or woman. Be ready to

1769
01:49:01,640 --> 01:49:05,320
Speaker 1: live with those man and woman consequences. Because these teachers

1770
01:49:05,320 --> 01:49:08,080
Speaker 1: ain't playing and they go only take so much? Enough

1771
01:49:08,240 --> 01:49:13,640
Speaker 1: is enough? Speaking of enough? Oh? Man? Is this enough for?

1772
01:49:13,800 --> 01:49:17,360
Speaker 1: Is this too much? Band man Cavo one of those

1773
01:49:17,360 --> 01:49:19,240
Speaker 1: people that are super famous. I'm sure, and I don't

1774
01:49:19,240 --> 01:49:21,880
Speaker 1: know who he is. But he also don't know who

1775
01:49:21,880 --> 01:49:24,160
Speaker 1: that dude is. Uh. He said he pays for women

1776
01:49:24,200 --> 01:49:27,799
Speaker 1: instead of going on dates. Oh, this story caught my attention,

1777
01:49:27,880 --> 01:49:31,240
Speaker 1: y'all know me. I was like, what I used to

1778
01:49:31,280 --> 01:49:33,559
Speaker 1: always have this conversation with my boys and my home girls.

1779
01:49:35,320 --> 01:49:38,240
Speaker 1: I'd say to my boys, dog, if you add up

1780
01:49:39,360 --> 01:49:43,240
Speaker 1: first date going to coy or cheese kate factory, big

1781
01:49:43,280 --> 01:49:46,960
Speaker 1: difference in costs. But you went, uh, second date, Ruth

1782
01:49:47,080 --> 01:49:50,800
Speaker 1: Chris gotta get that sweet potato cast roll on their head.

1783
01:49:52,000 --> 01:49:55,120
Speaker 1: Third day, you know, y'all at the club because you'll

1786
01:50:02,080 --> 01:50:04,120
Speaker 1: I don't know what it is. Whatever it is, you

1787
01:50:04,200 --> 01:50:08,160
Speaker 1: got a little trink it because she's special. I was like,

1788
01:50:08,400 --> 01:50:12,879

01:52:30,400 --> 01:52:33,280
Speaker 1: for real right. I like that if I were a woman,

1838
01:52:42,320 --> 01:52:44,439
Speaker 1: it made me think of some of the silly stuff

1839
01:52:44,479 --> 01:52:48,200
Speaker 1: I did in my dating times. Yep, yep, I was.

1840

Speaker 1: buy one of my ex is a car. Yeah, I

1842
01:52:57,000 --> 01:53:00,240
Speaker 1: said it. It felt it felt it felt as had

1843
01:53:00,280 --> 01:53:06,120
Speaker 1: just now saying it as y'all heard it. Whoa oh man,

1859
01:54:03,640 --> 01:54:07,320
Speaker 1: Whenever somebody say I I couldn't ask, I shouldn't ask,

01:54:39,040 --> 01:54:42,320
Speaker 1: This is my diary. So um, not all this stuff

1869

Speaker 1: if that's how I got here, damn it, I'm glad

01:54:52,080 --> 01:54:57,360
Speaker 1: right now though, I take okay stupid and I know

1873
01:54:57,520 --> 01:55:00,200
Speaker 1: cash out there shaking it here like Wiley. I I've

1874
01:55:00,200 --> 01:55:02,480
Speaker 1: done works, and I know some cats out there like

1875
01:55:02,520 --> 01:55:04,840
Speaker 1: man I if I could, I would, And that's some

1876
01:55:04,880 --> 01:55:07,360
Speaker 1: cats out there, like on my level, I've done that.

1877
01:55:08,480 --> 01:55:13,680
Speaker 1: M Ignorance at his finest. I mean, who didn't do

1878
01:55:13,720 --> 01:55:16,600
Speaker 1: the standard issue flight. Come visit role game for you

1879
01:55:16,680 --> 01:55:18,920
Speaker 1: and come hang with me. We all did that, But

1880
01:55:22,280 --> 01:55:25,080
Speaker 1: I told you all I was a fool straight ignorance.

1881
01:55:25,280 --> 01:55:28,640
Speaker 1: Speaking of ignorance, um, Dave Chappelle said that people are

1882
01:55:28,680 --> 01:55:32,760
Speaker 1: trying to take nuance out of speech in American culture,

1883
01:55:32,760 --> 01:55:37,320
Speaker 1: and to me, that's ignorant. It is Obviously Dave Chappelle

1884
01:55:37,440 --> 01:55:41,920
Speaker 1: of late certainly been accused of being transphobic. I don't

1885
01:55:41,960 --> 01:55:46,120
Speaker 1: feel that way. But I'm not a trans fest right.

1886
01:55:46,400 --> 01:55:51,120
Speaker 1: I'm not in the trans community, so I don't know.

1887
01:55:51,760 --> 01:55:54,720
Speaker 1: But they accused him of that. The community does. I

1888
01:55:54,720 --> 01:55:59,840
Speaker 1: don't think everyone that's trans does. But he doesn't one

1889
01:56:00,040 --> 01:56:02,760
Speaker 1: to have that label on him for many reasons. Obviously,

1890
01:56:03,920 --> 01:56:06,440
Speaker 1: he says he doesn't care if people take issue with

1891
01:56:06,600 --> 01:56:08,960
Speaker 1: his jokes, but he warned that cancel culture is in

1892
01:56:09,080 --> 01:56:14,720
Speaker 1: danger of taking the nuance out of speech. Preach, Dave Chapel, preach, Well,

1893
01:56:14,840 --> 01:56:17,320
Speaker 1: I think I'm sitting here right now. Protesters are not

1894
01:56:17,360 --> 01:56:19,640
Speaker 1: speaking from a place of love, he feels, but because

1895
01:56:19,640 --> 01:56:22,920
Speaker 1: they want to be feared. Basically, the mob or walk

1896
01:56:23,000 --> 01:56:26,760
Speaker 1: mob as they're called m they ain't loving what they're saying.

1897
01:56:26,800 --> 01:56:30,720
Speaker 1: They're just trying to scare you interesting. Dave quote wanted

1898
01:56:30,760 --> 01:56:34,520
Speaker 1: to deliberately obscure the intent of his work. What I

1899
01:56:34,600 --> 01:56:37,000
Speaker 1: take issue with is the idea that because they don't

1900
01:56:37,040 --> 01:56:41,720
Speaker 1: like it, I'm not allowed to say it. Whoa Dave?

1901
01:56:42,320 --> 01:56:46,040
Speaker 1: M m m. He also says art is a nuanced

1902
01:56:46,160 --> 01:56:49,920
Speaker 1: endeavor trying to take out of American culture, making people

1903
01:56:49,920 --> 01:56:52,480
Speaker 1: speak as if they're on the right or on the left.

1904
01:56:53,920 --> 01:56:56,800
Speaker 1: David's on one right now. I love this, damn It's good.

1905
01:56:58,040 --> 01:57:01,560
Speaker 1: M hmm am. I life. The most empathetic quote unquote

1906
01:57:01,600 --> 01:57:06,240
Speaker 1: people I see are also the most evil. Listen to that.

1907
01:57:06,640 --> 01:57:08,520
Speaker 1: People were like, Oh, I care about you, I care

1908
01:57:08,520 --> 01:57:10,520
Speaker 1: I care about all y'all. I care about everybody. I

1909
01:57:10,560 --> 01:57:13,080
Speaker 1: care about you before I care about me. It's me

1910
01:57:13,120 --> 01:57:17,360
Speaker 1: evil mouf, there's me evil people Mone, You're just out

1911
01:57:17,360 --> 01:57:20,320
Speaker 1: of place. It's this place to care about others before yourself.

1912
01:57:21,040 --> 01:57:24,760
Speaker 1: Once I hear that from somebody, I just literally and

1913
01:57:24,880 --> 01:57:28,600
Speaker 1: mentally walk away. I'm like, oh God, I can only

1914
01:57:28,640 --> 01:57:31,760
Speaker 1: swim in the pool that you have that exists for yourself.

1915
01:57:31,960 --> 01:57:33,640
Speaker 1: You gotta build the walls up, then fill it up

1916
01:57:33,680 --> 01:57:35,960
Speaker 1: for a little water, which are the people that you love.

1917
01:57:36,480 --> 01:57:38,880
Speaker 1: If you don't have that capacity. You can't love, so

1918
01:57:39,000 --> 01:57:42,160
Speaker 1: the capacity starts with you. And I also don't like

1919
01:57:42,200 --> 01:57:44,520
Speaker 1: that everything is so absolute right now with Chappelle is

1920
01:57:44,520 --> 01:57:47,840
Speaker 1: talking about everything so absolutely, like people think this is

1921
01:57:47,880 --> 01:57:50,040
Speaker 1: controversial some of the stuff I say, just because no

1922
01:57:50,040 --> 01:57:52,560
Speaker 1: one talks anymore. I can't believe while he said it.

1923
01:57:52,600 --> 01:57:54,720
Speaker 1: You know why you can't believe it because no one talks.

1924
01:57:55,720 --> 01:57:58,120
Speaker 1: They just yell or they jump on the side and

1925
01:57:58,200 --> 01:58:01,560
Speaker 1: echo I talked. So you're gonna hear some real ship.

1926
01:58:03,720 --> 01:58:05,560
Speaker 1: You're gonna hear some real ship. You're gonna hear some good,

1927
01:58:05,600 --> 01:58:10,120
Speaker 1: bad and ugly remember those days. That's what I'm talking about.

1928
01:58:10,120 --> 01:58:13,040
Speaker 1: I'm loving Dave Chappelle for bringing this out. It's not

1929
01:58:13,120 --> 01:58:18,000
Speaker 1: about what he's talking about, because that's a different conversation.

1930
01:58:18,640 --> 01:58:22,040
Speaker 1: I'm talking about the permission, the allowance to talk about it,

1931
01:58:22,800 --> 01:58:25,880
Speaker 1: like everyone group text, everybody talking about the same stuff.

1932
01:58:25,880 --> 01:58:28,360
Speaker 1: But just who's gonna say it publicly? Who's gonna say

1933
01:58:28,360 --> 01:58:33,760
Speaker 1: it publicly? Right y'all? Trip y'are not putting me in

1934
01:58:33,800 --> 01:58:36,360
Speaker 1: that damn prison. And I felt like I was in

1935
01:58:36,400 --> 01:58:38,680
Speaker 1: that prison doing some mainstream media of late. I was

1936
01:58:38,680 --> 01:58:43,160
Speaker 1: getting fatigued, tired, I was getting mad at it. Uh,

1938
01:58:45,920 --> 01:58:51,320
Speaker 1: uh Brownie James, Lebron, James's young son, for his nepotism,

1939
01:58:51,360 --> 01:58:55,440
Speaker 1: they call it, and they were mad he was on

1940
01:58:55,480 --> 01:58:57,720
Speaker 1: the McDonald's All American team when they were like, all right,

1941

Speaker 1: they picked twenty four, but he's not top, he's like forty.

1942
01:59:02,000 --> 01:59:04,920
Speaker 1: So why are you on their nepotism is Lebron? Well,

1944
01:59:07,440 --> 01:59:10,880
Speaker 1: Lebron's son if he's close, even if he doesn't deserve it.

1945
01:59:11,080 --> 01:59:13,160
Speaker 1: He's on the McDonald's All American Team. Y'all think he

1946
01:59:13,160 --> 01:59:17,080
Speaker 1: should be on the Carls Jr. All American Team. Stupid

1947
01:59:18,000 --> 01:59:21,800

01:59:25,480 --> 01:59:28,440
Speaker 1: me tell y'all one thing. Stop shining away from nepotism

1950
01:59:28,480 --> 01:59:31,200
Speaker 1: if you are one of the privilege to have it,

1951
01:59:32,160 --> 01:59:34,440
Speaker 1: Stop being scared of it if you're Brownie, and stop

1952
01:59:34,480 --> 01:59:37,760
Speaker 1: being scared to flex it if you're Lebron. That's what

1953
01:59:37,840 --> 01:59:40,440
Speaker 1: this game is about. You think I'm working so hard

1954

01:59:59,160 --> 02:00:04,200
Speaker 1: Oh man, what did Michael Corleon say? Discontent for money

Speaker 1: poor without it. Yep. And I could change money for

1963
02:00:11,840 --> 02:00:14,720

1972
02:00:53,520 --> 02:00:54,960
Speaker 1: reason I wanted to bring it up is because I

1973
02:00:54,960 --> 02:00:57,040

1974

02:01:25,800 --> 02:01:27,720
Speaker 1: has to be held back by security after a fan

1984
02:01:27,800 --> 02:01:30,520

Speaker 1: The fans yelled at him when they were down twenty three.

1991
02:01:50,640 --> 02:01:53,760
Speaker 1: Then Lebron stopped staring them down, and then the security

1992
02:01:53,800 --> 02:01:56,440
Speaker 1: had to get between them and the fan and his hairline.

02:04:46,640 --> 02:04:48,600
Speaker 1: my hair a little more so that the white was

2044
02:04:49,000 --> 02:04:52,080
Speaker 1: kind of going away. And then the next period somebody

2045
02:04:52,080 --> 02:04:54,680

02:05:02,240 --> 02:05:05,240
Speaker 1: my last couple right here. I gotta get these out.

2049
02:05:06,400 --> 02:05:11,680
Speaker 1: Kurt Warner's tweet quote, when did we decide loud confrontational

2050
02:05:11,680 --> 02:05:14,720
Speaker 1: analysis is best analysis? Am I the only one that

2051
02:05:14,760 --> 02:05:19,480
Speaker 1: would rather analysts just beat themselves, come educated, bring a smart,

2052
02:05:19,600 --> 02:05:23,080
Speaker 1: unique take, and then let viewer use the info to

2053
02:05:23,120 --> 02:05:26,120
Speaker 1: decide what to believe. Analyzed to educate, not to win

2054
02:05:26,240 --> 02:05:28,840
Speaker 1: the question. Amen, Kurt Wanner a man, and I know

2055
02:05:28,880 --> 02:05:33,000
Speaker 1: you were legified a man. Damn. I wish cats would

2056
02:05:33,000 --> 02:05:36,640
Speaker 1: do this. But that's not where media is now. You

2057
02:05:36,680 --> 02:05:41,760
Speaker 1: know where media is now? Media is yell it louder

2058
02:05:41,800 --> 02:05:48,440
Speaker 1: and louder, even if it's the same thing, And who

2059
02:05:48,440 --> 02:05:51,640
Speaker 1: cares if it's profound? Who cares if it really educates?

2060
02:05:51,680 --> 02:05:54,360
Speaker 1: There's always that balance in that between entertainment and education.

2061
02:05:54,920 --> 02:05:57,520
Speaker 1: Kurt Warner nailed that tweet. I had to retweet it.

2062
02:05:57,920 --> 02:05:59,680
Speaker 1: That's where the game is right now. So that's why

2063
02:05:59,680 --> 02:06:01,640
Speaker 1: I'm in a different game because I want to. I

2064
02:06:01,680 --> 02:06:05,080
Speaker 1: want to talk through this ship. I can't. I won't

2065
02:06:05,120 --> 02:06:08,000
Speaker 1: deny it. I'm a straight rideer. Do you want to

2066
02:06:08,120 --> 02:06:11,680
Speaker 1: listen to me? I love talking. I love talking through

2067
02:06:11,720 --> 02:06:15,120
Speaker 1: problems more than I love talking through all the glossy

2068
02:06:15,240 --> 02:06:18,520
Speaker 1: glory stuff like together. Damn we all get that. How

2069
02:06:18,560 --> 02:06:20,520
Speaker 1: can we learn and un learned from the bad stuff

2070
02:06:20,560 --> 02:06:23,080
Speaker 1: that nobody wants to talk about because it's taboo and

2071
02:06:23,080 --> 02:06:26,200
Speaker 1: even in sports it's in Vada Sports Chapelle said it

2072
02:06:26,280 --> 02:06:29,800
Speaker 1: in comedy, Kurt Warner saying, in this sports Jalen Rose

2073
02:06:29,840 --> 02:06:33,800
Speaker 1: is saying it this fake is I'm about to take it. Hell,

2074
02:06:33,880 --> 02:06:36,680
Speaker 1: I'm telling you. We're about to win this one. All right.

2075
02:06:37,200 --> 02:06:40,040
Speaker 1: Let me get up out of here now and it's

02:06:40,080 --> 02:06:43,320
Speaker 1: time for ticky time. Stop ticky time. Look at me
