Speaker 1: This guy's a production machine. What does AI have to say?
Speaker 1: Oh about Travis miel Kelsey? Start the clock now.
Speaker 2: Travis Kelcey is widely regarded as one of the greatest
Speaker 2: tight ends in NFL history, known for his exceptional receiving
Speaker 2: skills and athleticism so far.
Speaker 1: I agree, I agree, I agree, I agree.
Speaker 2: Off the field, he is seen as a charismatic and
Speaker 2: dedicated individual. He often praise for his leadership and community involvement.
Speaker 2: Kelsey has made a significant impact on the Kansas City Chiefs,
Speaker 2: helping them secure multiple playoff appearances and a Super Bowl
Speaker 2: victory and out AI not not you know right here?
Speaker 2: Super Bowl victories. Gotta make it polario.
Speaker 1: He got got he got three. Yeah, he's got three
Speaker 1: in the category.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's got three. AI.
Speaker 1: I mean, would they say just super Bowl victory?
Speaker 2: I knew we were smarter than AI. They're not.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they're not there yet.
Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, super Bowl and a super Bowl victory all right.
Speaker 2: He holds several notablele records, including the most consecutive in
Speaker 2: overall seasons with a thousand receiving yards by a tight end. Recently,
Speaker 2: Kelsey has been in the spotlight for dating Taylor Swift,
Speaker 2: co hosting the popular podcast New Heights with his brother
Speaker 2: Jason Kelcey Killer, and becoming the Chiefs all time leader
Speaker 2: in receptions, surpassing the legendary Tony Gonzalez. Wow, and there's
Speaker 2: still a myth about Tony Gonzalez that has not been solved.
Speaker 1: The urban legend.
Speaker 2: We're not going to talk. We're just gonna let that
Speaker 2: is about Travis. I mean, I mean, this is about Travis. Tony,
Speaker 2: we know that we know no matter what you are
Speaker 2: in the world because of that myth, good things coming
Speaker 2: through with you. Yes, good thing coming through. And Tony
Speaker 2: guns up. Oh man killer trave Man killer killer killer
Speaker 2: killer trave.
Speaker 1: He's so slippery.
Speaker 2: He is slippery. That's a good way to put it. Slippery, smooth, smooth,
Speaker 2: flacks of all functionable.
Speaker 1: He's got like a very reliable he's got a very
Speaker 1: I remember us talking about it. He just has that
Speaker 1: basketball body where like he doesn't get hurt. He's always
Speaker 1: he's elegantly running. When he runs, he's faster than what
Speaker 1: you think, and he's stronger than what you think. And
Speaker 1: he's always in the right position.
Speaker 2: Always in the right position. He knows how to find
Speaker 2: an open hole better than any tight end I have
Speaker 2: ever seen.
Speaker 1: Finding an open hole.
Speaker 2: Yeah in the defense to him, Okay, the defense, Okay,
Speaker 2: if it's own, he can find you know, the soft spot. Yeah,
Speaker 2: that's soft spot, the.
Speaker 1: Soft spot of the Again, just what about man man coverage.
Speaker 1: Oh man, he has he's got great boat rounds. You
Speaker 1: see him. He at the top of the.
Speaker 2: Rout he's so like uh like like savvy, yeah, savvy, savvy, savvy,
Speaker 2: savage savvy at the top of the route, like he
Speaker 2: can go to boom boom boom like a basketball player
Speaker 2: dribbling when they're at the top, one on one, crossing
Speaker 2: over like he's got that And that's what truly gets
Speaker 2: them open as well. And that's what makes him a
Speaker 2: great player is because of his knowledge in the zone game,
Speaker 2: the ability to find the open hole, to find the
Speaker 2: where the grass is so he can sit there and
Speaker 2: Patrick Mahomes can just dump it right to him. And
Speaker 2: then also the ability to just be so savvy a
Speaker 2: top of the route and have that crossover type of
Speaker 2: skills and then make the dB confused or the safety
Speaker 2: or the linebacker that's rare, a linebacker on him, to
Speaker 2: make them confuse what way he's going on. Boom he
Speaker 2: breaks out and he has that separation. He can get
Speaker 2: that separation because of it. And when he hears that separation,
Speaker 2: you have a quarterback like Patrick Mahomes, He's gonna find
Speaker 2: you every single time and put that ball on the money?
Speaker 1: Can you keep him separated? What's that from? That's a song?
Speaker 1: Can you keep him separated? Is that?
Speaker 2: Ooh dang? Who sings that again? I know who that is.
Speaker 2: I'm getting a tattoo now I'm getting ain't done. That's
Speaker 2: the same artist, right, I asked for a thirteen, but
Speaker 2: they drew thirty with the Offspring Offspring. Yes, yes, I
Speaker 2: think that's the same song too, isn't it? Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: it is the Offspring. Now, Travis Kelcey is like an offspring.
Speaker 2: He's different from every tight end. He's one of the
Speaker 2: best ever to play. That's being an offspring right there.
Speaker 1: Now do you get a traditional guy?
Speaker 2: Yeah, ask me, Jules, Ask me and I'll answer.
Speaker 1: I'm not scared here seeking people comparing them to you.
Speaker 2: Uh, you know, it's really like not a comparison. I mean,
Speaker 2: you can compare us, but we're two totally different players,
Speaker 2: to tell you the truth, And like, it all depends
Speaker 2: on what type of scheme you're in as well. Yeah,
Speaker 2: you know, like what they ask him to do with
Speaker 2: the Kansas City Chiefs, I could not replicate what he's
Speaker 2: doing with the Chiefs if you ask him to do
Speaker 2: what I was doing with the Newing, I don't think
Speaker 2: he could replicate. He could do it, like I could
Speaker 2: do what he's doing, but I wouldn't have been able
Speaker 2: to replicate what he's doing with the Chiefs at that level,
Speaker 2: and they know how to use his skill set. We
Speaker 2: have two totally different skill sets by far, like by far,
Speaker 2: like he's savvy. At the top of the route, I was,
Speaker 2: I'm gonna run and I'm just gonna go to the
Speaker 2: corner and I'm gonna outrun the guy. I'm gonna use
Speaker 2: my body. I'm gonna be physical, and Tom just throw
Speaker 2: the ball up. And if the guy's on me, I'm
Speaker 2: bigger than him, I'm going to use my body box
Speaker 2: them out and just go up and catch the freaking ball.
Speaker 2: All right, Just throw me the ball. There was nothing
Speaker 2: more to it. This guy has like eight moves. He's
Speaker 2: like a wide receiver out there. So we're two totally
Speaker 2: different players. You can compare us because we both wear
Speaker 2: at number eighty seven, So that's that's in comparison right there.
Speaker 2: But if he fit, you know, if you brought him
Speaker 2: to doing a pitch, I don't think he would be
Speaker 2: able to do what I was doing. He would be
Speaker 2: able to do it, but not to the capable level
Speaker 2: that I was being able to do it at. So
Speaker 2: we're different players, man, way, totally different players. He has
Speaker 2: mastered his skill set as well, just like I mastered
Speaker 2: my skill set and what I brought to the table.
Speaker 2: But I mean, I'm not, you know, sick of it.
Speaker 2: I mean, he's he's a great player. I mean, he
Speaker 2: definitely belongs as the best tight end in the NFL,
Speaker 2: or debate debatable as being the best tight end in
Speaker 2: the NFL due to his stats and what he has
Speaker 2: done for the position. But uh, you know, it's just
Speaker 2: an honor. I guess it's an honor to be in
Speaker 2: the same category.
Speaker 1: Now, what if you guys were both in the same team.
Speaker 2: I think we would be perfect to be both on
Speaker 2: the same team. I mean, I feel like we kind
Speaker 2: of counter each other. Uh, there's no doubt about it,
Speaker 2: just the way, you know, like I was saying, how
Speaker 2: we were different players. His aspect of the game, how
Speaker 2: he you know, can line up anywhere, how he can
Speaker 2: motion to any any point on the field at any
Speaker 2: given time. I was kind of a guy like Tom
Speaker 2: that I really got a motion across the line of scrimmage,
Speaker 2: like like sometimes I was in the huddle like I'm
Speaker 2: tom I know I got a motion here, but I'm
Speaker 2: just gonna line up over there. Man, I'm like too
Speaker 2: big to be motion here. You know, Travis is lighter,
Speaker 2: you know you can motion him around, you know, set
Speaker 2: him up. Yeah, I had that happen before. Yeah, you know.
Speaker 2: I you know, I got a lot of masks. So
Speaker 2: we would compliment each other unbelievable, and I would say
Speaker 2: that we would have been the best duel. I would say,
Speaker 2: one of the best duels to play if we play
Speaker 2: with each other, don't you think so.
Speaker 1: We've had a doubt, Yeah, I mean we kind of
Speaker 1: had that.
Speaker 2: Yeah we did. I was actually I was actually gonna
Speaker 2: say that that we would we would have broke the
Speaker 2: records of me and the other guy about I won't
Speaker 2: mention names. We broke basically every record in the book.
Speaker 2: When when it was him and I number eighty five,
Speaker 2: yeah it was I think he had like two numbers.
Speaker 2: I think he was eighty one at first eighty and
Speaker 2: then number eighty five. So we broke every record in
Speaker 2: the book for being dual tight ends. Like we had
Speaker 2: like what.
Speaker 1: Twenty six touchdowns a year and like, I don't know,
Speaker 1: twenty four hundred yards just between tight ends, Travis Callacy
Speaker 1: and I together would have definitely matched those numbers or
Speaker 1: produced even more then you at slat receiver than Randy
Speaker 1: Moss out wide. Just there's so much cluction is going
Speaker 1: on in that.
Speaker 2: Who would be our quarterback there, Mahomes or Brady or
Speaker 2: we have them both and one would play one half
Speaker 2: I the other.
Speaker 1: We got to go Brady, I know, I agree, because
Speaker 1: we don't know. I don't know how to play with.
Speaker 1: We don't know how to play that that scramble drill,
Speaker 1: second play within a play that was not like our forte.
Speaker 1: So those guys learn that it's that scrambled drill. Like
Speaker 1: Travis is always open when there's that second play within
Speaker 1: the play that Patrick Mahomes creates. And they've got on
Speaker 1: such a wavelength where he's always in the open position
Speaker 1: and he knows where to go. He reads and scans
Speaker 1: the field better than anyone, and he always finds open
Speaker 1: and Mahomes always delivered it to him, So it it'd
Speaker 1: be different, it'd be very different.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that second phase of a play. He's got that
Speaker 2: down to a science on how to get open. I mean,
Speaker 2: that's due to Patrick Mahomes being able to scramble like that.
Speaker 2: But Travis is also one of the most clutch players
Speaker 2: in the history history fell There's no doubt about it
Speaker 2: when it comes to playoff performances or tough all the
Speaker 2: number game. He has all the numbers, he has all
Speaker 2: the catches when it's when it's that time to make
Speaker 2: a play, and he's swaggy as fun. He is swaggy,
Speaker 2: he's smooth. But I swear it's due to the fact
Speaker 2: that he has that like basketball mentality, the basketball body
Speaker 2: like yeah, like he's not Jackie has another dad By
Speaker 2: like Patrick Mahomes in a way, but a little bit skinnier,
Speaker 2: a little bit more proportioned dad Bot, I would say.
Speaker 2: But those guys, man, I'm telling you, they don't get hurt,
Speaker 2: they don't pull muscles, and it's because they're not tight.
Speaker 2: And he's not tight at all. And I swear that's
Speaker 2: what makes him.
Speaker 1: He's playing that he is. He's yeah, fluid, impliable, he's
Speaker 1: and people are worried about him right now. I'm not
Speaker 1: worried because his production is a little bit. He had
Speaker 1: a good game, but I'm not worried until like Travis
Speaker 1: is going to show up when the team needs him
Speaker 1: in December January. That's like, that's when that's when you
Speaker 1: need him. Okay, he got he's thirty four years old.
Speaker 1: Now he's chilling until that point and he'll turn it
Speaker 1: on and these jokers will probably go out and win
Speaker 1: again because he's part of that formula. Patrick Mahomes, Andy Reid,
Speaker 1: Travis Kelcey, Spags and Christians.
Speaker 2: And on top of it, he kind of is a
Speaker 2: complete tight end. He doesn't get the job done in
Speaker 2: the trenches. You're not gonna put him one on one
Speaker 2: with a freaking two hundred and eighty pounds defensive vent
Speaker 2: Like you know, Coach Balichuk loved to do with me
Speaker 2: in practice and just you know, get my brains, you know,
Speaker 2: just mushed every day versus Rob Ninkovich and all the
Speaker 2: other guys. He just loved putting me versus every single
Speaker 2: practice and just loved watching me just bang my head
Speaker 2: every day and then go out and do it in games.
Speaker 2: But it was fun. I loved it. That's that's why
Speaker 2: I did it and never complained. But uh, but he
Speaker 2: gets the job done. You want to know how I
Speaker 2: describe blocking James Harrison. That's kind of what he does.
Speaker 2: He's kind of got it down to get He gets in.
Speaker 3: The way and he knows where the play has to hit.
Speaker 3: Any knowing board, that's all you need to do. That's
Speaker 3: all you need to do. If you got that down
Speaker 3: those signs, which he does and I've seen him do it.
Speaker 3: It springs the running back stale. The guy does not
Speaker 3: make the play. So he's got it down.
Speaker 2: And tell you the truth.
Speaker 1: He's a superstar, a super superstar. He's Dame Taylor fucking Swift.
Speaker 2: And they might could they should have a kid. They
Speaker 2: should That would be a great kid. It would be
Speaker 2: a what would would kid be performing? Like, you know,
Speaker 2: having eight catches a game and then like halftime he's
Speaker 2: doing the halftime show in like fifteen, No, in like
Speaker 2: twenty four.
Speaker 1: Years probably sooner. Yeah, Taylor was on the scene when
Speaker 1: she was like thirteen, all right.
Speaker 2: So it would be like the new Ryan Williams. You
Speaker 2: know how, he's seventeen years old at Alabama, so their
Speaker 2: kid would be like fourteen in college. They're just surpassed
Speaker 2: like middle school because he's so smart.
Speaker 1: And then he would go like do a duet with
Speaker 1: like he would go do something with Quavo right after.
Speaker 2: Yeah so, and then he'll be in the league at
Speaker 2: eighteen and then singing.
Speaker 1: And performing like halftime top ten hits in a TikTok song.
Speaker 2: Dang, they need to have a kid. If that's the case, they.
Speaker 1: Gotta have it, gotta And we would be crazy not
Speaker 1: to talk about last year's AFC Championship game when all year,
Speaker 1: all year, we kept on hearing people not me, not me.
Speaker 1: Chiefs are done, they look old, they look slow. Where's
Speaker 1: Travis Kelce? What are they doing? Red hot Baltimore? What
Speaker 1: are they doing? Rd hot Baltimore. He goes eleven catches
Speaker 1: on eleven targets in the AFC Championship when everyone knows
Speaker 1: they're throwing him the ball. That's a fucking that's a killer.
Speaker 1: I was why they call him kill.
Speaker 2: Draft clutch, one of the most clutch players of all time.
Speaker 2: I loid that already. How about when I first met him,
Speaker 2: my very first time of truly meeting I'm like, truly
Speaker 2: truly meet him. He came to Gronk beach Man. It
Speaker 2: was really cool. He was in Vegas. It was in Vegas.
Speaker 2: The draft was in Vegas. And he came up to
Speaker 2: Gronk Beach. You were there. I was hammered, man, I was.
Speaker 2: I was hammered. Actually, it was one of the few
Speaker 2: times in the last few years where I was pretty
Speaker 2: hammed up, and I was I'm awesome when I ended up. Actually,
Speaker 2: you jumped on my back. I didn't feel it, didn't
Speaker 2: even carr it was on my back. I just started
Speaker 2: running around on stage jewels and you jumped on my back,
Speaker 2: and all of a sudden, kill a trap shows up
Speaker 2: and we're having a dance off on the stage. He
Speaker 2: can dance, and he rob could dance, but I could
Speaker 2: dance like kind of like they're my own dance was
Speaker 2: but he can for real dance because like we said,
Speaker 2: he's fluid.
Speaker 1: He's fluid.
Speaker 2: I got too muscular, man. I just never worked out
Speaker 2: like the way I worked out like in high school
Speaker 2: and college, like I should have been doing like more
Speaker 2: pliability stuff. Yeah right, yeah, because that was kind of
Speaker 2: my mottol, Like that was kind of my persona being jacked.
Speaker 1: You were a senior in high school playing against fourth
Speaker 1: graders when you were playing imagine, just fucking.
Speaker 2: Imagine like if I was looser and I could dance better,
Speaker 2: and you could dance.
Speaker 1: You dance your own style.
Speaker 2: You're good, You're right. I'm the best at dancing my style.
Speaker 2: Ain't no one can match me.
Speaker 1: Ain't nobody imagine, Like, all right time, let's drop in.
Speaker 1: What kind of dude is Travis Kelcey.
Speaker 2: I mean, like you kind of just said it already.
Speaker 2: You hit it right off the bat, without even thinking
Speaker 2: about it, without even going over the categories. I mean,
Speaker 2: we got freak. I don't really think he's a freak.
Speaker 1: He's a freak.
Speaker 2: Maybe somewhere else.
Speaker 1: He's freaking the sheets.
Speaker 2: May freaking the sheets because you know, but killing But hey,
Speaker 2: that's all, that's all I'm going to say. That's how
Speaker 2: far I'm only going to go. But but on the
Speaker 2: football field, like his physical attributes, No, not not really
Speaker 2: a freak like we said, dad Bob, but fluid so
Speaker 2: like a freak. Is like DK Metcalf like that. Dude's freaky.
Speaker 1: Eats like cheetos for breakfast, and he's got a nineteen pack.
Speaker 2: Yeah exactly. This guy a dog. He's definitely a dog.
Speaker 2: He's definitely motivated.
Speaker 1: He's a dog. I think he's a dog. Yes, he's
Speaker 1: a Dude's dude too.
Speaker 2: I bet ye.
Speaker 1: He's so cool in Lock. He's a stud.
Speaker 2: Make some beers with you.
Speaker 1: He's a whiz.
Speaker 2: He's that's because he knows how to get open. I
Speaker 2: wouldn't say he's like true whiz, but he's a whiz
Speaker 2: and at his position kind of just like myself. Tight ends.
Speaker 2: Don't know that we know the whole playbook, but we're
Speaker 2: not like the smartest. You know, we know what we
Speaker 2: just need to know.
Speaker 1: You didn't miss up much.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but like I said, we know what we need
Speaker 2: to know.
Speaker 1: Hey, so is he a stud?
Speaker 2: Is he a stud? He is a stud. He is
Speaker 2: a stud. He's definitely a stud. But is he a dog?
Speaker 2: I think it's between stud and dog.
Speaker 1: I think because he went to Cincinnati and what he
Speaker 1: was a fifth round draft pick or fourth round draft,
Speaker 1: third round draft pick. He had the troubles in college
Speaker 1: with the marijuana bullshit. That's why he dropped to the third.
Speaker 1: I think that's like kind.
Speaker 2: Of being more of a dog. That's a dog because
Speaker 2: if you're getting in trouble for that stuff and you're.
Speaker 1: Saying you're still going out and performing, Studs don't get
Speaker 1: in trouble for that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Studs don't get in trouble. Studs can get out
Speaker 2: of it. Stud's gotta be a start on the field
Speaker 2: and off the field in order to be label a stud. Yeah,
Speaker 2: and like getting in trouble for that.
Speaker 1: That's it's kind of weak to get in trouble. But
Speaker 1: it's also a dog. It's a dog.
Speaker 2: You get in trouble, dog goes in its cage and
Speaker 2: it comes back out.
Speaker 1: That's a dog.
Speaker 2: That's a dog.
Speaker 1: He's a Dog's a dog.

Speaker 2: back in the day. Back in the day, basically, and
Speaker 2: how the records for most receptions, receiving yards, and touchdowns
Speaker 2: by a tight end at the time of his retirement,
Speaker 2: Sharpe's post retirement career as a sports analyst has farther
Speaker 2: solidified his influence in the football world. And he's not

Speaker 2: by you know, breaking down basketball, basketball, breaking down, breaking
Speaker 2: what badminton if he had to, dude, this guy can
Speaker 2: do it all in the broadcasting world.
Speaker 1: When he went up with Skip him and Skip like
Speaker 1: he could battle him, he could talk. I mean, there's
Speaker 1: no that's he's famous for a reason, not just his
Speaker 1: his podcast Uncle Say Shay and and everything that he's
Speaker 1: got going. This guy is, like you could tell he's
Speaker 1: a fucking smart guy. He looks like he can still play.
Speaker 2: He sure does. He looks like a linebacker now as well.
Speaker 2: He looks like he's jack. He can go out there
Speaker 2: and just level fools and just get right back up.
Speaker 2: He is jacked. And I think he posted an instagram
Speaker 2: within the year of him benching still and I think
Speaker 2: it was like three eighty five, it was around there.
Speaker 2: He don't quote me the exact way, but it was
Speaker 2: right around there and uh, he put it up like
Speaker 2: five times as well. Jesus, he's huge jacked.
Speaker 1: I watched a lot of the films and the miked
Speaker 1: up and stuff. Yeah, he could talk some shit. He's
Speaker 1: one of the Janet Shark could talk.
Speaker 2: Some He is the biggest shiit talking tight end in
Speaker 2: NFL history, without doubt, no doubt about that. How about
Speaker 2: when he when he came to uh Foxborough, one of
Speaker 2: the old stadium back in the day, obviously he was
Speaker 2: playing in the nineties. Uh, and he picked up the phone.
Speaker 1: The red phone, and no one picks up the red phone.
Speaker 2: No one picks up the phone. You get you ass
Speaker 2: busted if you pick up that phone.
Speaker 1: But hey, hey, someone called the press.
Speaker 2: Where what did he say exactly? Or we just someone
Speaker 2: call the president. We're killing the patriots, soning the troops
Speaker 2: then something like that. It was right along that those lines,
Speaker 2: right right, yeah, we are killing the Patriots, son, someone
Speaker 2: called the president. We are killing the Patriots.
Speaker 1: And this is back before like talking to the cam
Speaker 1: like now we see players always talking to the camera
Speaker 1: on the sideline or before a game, pregame, postgame, like
Speaker 1: Sean Sharp was an innovator of a lot of that,
Speaker 1: Like when you'd see the guys warming up in the
Speaker 1: warm ups and stuff, he'd always engaged the camera like
Speaker 1: and let you know he's about to run up all
Speaker 1: of your ass in the game that week and start
Speaker 1: talking to the fans. He's fucking crazy.
Speaker 2: He is crazy. I mean he has wide receiver bill
Speaker 2: because I think he was drafted as a wide receiver
Speaker 2: as well, was he, Yeah, he was, and then he
Speaker 2: put on some weight. Obviously you got to put on
Speaker 2: weight if you're drafted as a wide receiver went to
Speaker 2: the tight end position. But that kind of explains why
Speaker 2: he was such a great route unner because he was
Speaker 2: a receiver coming into the NFL. And uh, that kind
Speaker 2: of explains why he's so jacked as well, because he
Speaker 2: had that skinny frame and then he had to hit
Speaker 2: the waits hard. There's no doubt about it. He has
Speaker 2: like cis down hill speed. Like when he gets going
Speaker 2: he catches that ball, he's gone. When he catches, he's gone.
Speaker 2: He's a freak run by. Yeah, he is a freak. He's,
Speaker 2: no doubt, a little.
Speaker 1: Hey kind of a freak. I don't I don't even
Speaker 1: think we got a debate at the end. I think
Speaker 1: he's a freak no matter what, Well we know he's
Speaker 1: a freaking Yeah it is.
Speaker 2: I mean that that Instagram Live back to the Instagram
Speaker 2: Live real quick. You think it was set up? I mean,
Speaker 2: I mean to get into Instagram Live, you have to
Speaker 2: open up your phone, your face has to be recognized
Speaker 2: or you got to put your password, and you gotta
Speaker 2: hit Instagram. Then you got to hit like the story
Speaker 2: but and then you got to move over to the
Speaker 2: right and hit Instagram Live. And then when you hit that,
Speaker 2: it says are you sure you want to go live?
Speaker 2: And then you got to hit yes. I mean, I
Speaker 2: still think it's an accident.
Speaker 1: It's a girl.
Speaker 2: It was an accident.
Speaker 1: Was it a girl? Or was he live before? I
Speaker 1: don't know.
Speaker 2: Story live before and accidentally put his phone down. I'm
Speaker 2: not sure. But I mean it was entertainment. I mean
Speaker 2: I didn't listen. He was getting the job done. I
Speaker 2: didn't listen either.
Speaker 1: What a hell of a career one what do He
Speaker 1: won three Super Bowls, two with the Broncos and John
Speaker 1: Elway and that late Broncos surge of John's career, and
Speaker 1: then he went to the Ravens and was part of
Speaker 1: that founding block of foundation for that organization. Him and
Speaker 1: Ray Lewis, Like Ray was the guy that had the team,
Speaker 1: and it was like always they always had like quarterbacks
Speaker 1: that weren't necessarily like big name quarterbacks. It was more
Speaker 1: of playing to the defense. And you know the guy
Speaker 1: on the offense that was always represented with Shannon Sharp.
Speaker 1: That's what I remember as a kid when you watch
Speaker 1: the Ravens, it was Shannon Sharp's team on the offense.
Speaker 1: And that's that's crazy. The crazy thing about Shannon is
Speaker 1: his brother Sterling, in the amount of respect he had
Speaker 1: for his brother, who he had like a what he played,
Speaker 1: how many years he played, seven years in the league,
Speaker 1: got cut with the neck injury, got cut short with
Speaker 1: the neck injury, was like tearing up everything. Was all
Speaker 1: pro five times, led the NFL in receptions a few
Speaker 1: three years. And it was really cool to hear when
Speaker 1: Shannon got inducted to the Hall of Fame that he
Speaker 1: would be the only guy up there in the Hall
Speaker 1: of Fame that had a brother that was better than him.
Speaker 1: He said something along those leges I'm paraphrasing, so you
Speaker 1: have to give a shout out to Sterling, and he
Speaker 1: was he was really good on TV back in the
Speaker 1: day too well. Shout out to Sterling as well, because actually,
Speaker 1: I didn't know any of this as ever occurred. I
Speaker 1: didn't know that Shannon had a brother.
Speaker 2: He was a munster I played in the NFL that
Speaker 2: Thank you for the fact, Jewels, thank you for the knowledge.
Speaker 2: We're always here to learn. That was pretty cool that
Speaker 2: you know more about a tight end, and then you know,
Speaker 2: I know about a tight end. So that was cool.
Speaker 1: It's pretty cool to hear the brother brother that he
Speaker 1: had an older brother, Like, do you have any of
Speaker 1: those stories where your older brother like punked you into
Speaker 1: mm hm.
Speaker 2: Of course. That's why. I also think it was really
Speaker 2: cool that you share that story because I got three
Speaker 2: older brothers and one younger brother played on their teams.
Speaker 2: Gowing up played same football teams in high school and
Speaker 2: college and didn't remember Dan was on our team. Yeah,
Speaker 2: with the New England Patriots for a little bit. Yeah,
Speaker 2: big piece, he does have a big piece. It's dark
Speaker 2: as well. Yeah, so it's like like a double whammy
Speaker 2: big piece. Yeah, a little way big piece. It's tan.
Speaker 2: I guess I don't know. That's why I've heard. That's
Speaker 2: what his wife.
Speaker 1: Told me here his brother. You've definitely seen his No.
Speaker 2: No, he's never showed me. I was making fun of
Speaker 2: him one time and then his wife came in like, well,
Speaker 2: he has a bigger and darker dick than you know.
Speaker 2: I was like, well, I know that, but I'm gonna
Speaker 2: keep making fun of him, like I already know that.
Speaker 2: That's why I am making fun of him so I
Speaker 2: can make myself feel But okay, back to Shannon Sharp,
Speaker 2: who has a sharp piece cool. Why are we allays? Jus?
Speaker 2: Why are we talking about this stuff?
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean this is dude talk though, this is
Speaker 2: dude's on dudes Like this is so great because whenever
Speaker 2: we get off you know, subjact and topic and everything,
Speaker 2: we can always just blame it on the name of
Speaker 2: the show. It's dude just being dudes, and no, lie,
Speaker 2: that's what dudes do. Man dudes talk about. It's weird
Speaker 2: why DoD dudes talk about peace sizes so much, like
Speaker 2: when it's just the dudes like on the couch watching
Speaker 2: the game. I don't why is that?
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 2: It always comes back to that, it's weird.
Speaker 1: Mona mono mm hmm.
Speaker 2: Fourth leg the greatest trash talker of all time. There's
Speaker 2: I was watching him on the whatever NFL, one of
Speaker 2: those NFL shows, Top one hundred shows wherever I had
Speaker 2: the NFL channel line, and uh, someone told Shannon Sharp before,
Speaker 2: don't quote me exactly, it's just along these lines. They said, Hey, Shannon,
Speaker 2: you want to be famous, you want to be well known,
Speaker 2: then don't block. And Shannon Sharp took that to heart,
Speaker 2: and he went out there and goes, I'm gonna go
Speaker 2: out there and catch passes. I'm gonna go out there
Speaker 2: and I'm gonna be well known. I'm gonna be famous,
Speaker 2: and I'm gonna catch pass the score touchdowns and get
Speaker 2: first downs. And that's sure what he did. But he
Speaker 2: wasn't that bad of a blocker either. He went out there,
Speaker 2: he got.
Speaker 1: An he's kind of one of the first tight ends,
Speaker 1: revolutionized the tight end position as well, and uh to
Speaker 1: open up an offense at the.
Speaker 2: Tight end position. And he's kind of more of an
Speaker 2: h back tight end as well, kind of shorter, more
Speaker 2: stock here, and he got the job done. He could run.
Speaker 2: He runs like a deer.
Speaker 1: He I mean, he didn't have all those stats for
Speaker 1: not being great. I mean he's a monster. Did you
Speaker 1: ever watch that Kat Williams interview?
Speaker 2: Nah, I haven't, but hey, I didn't.
Speaker 1: Either, But I just remember the hype of that whole thing.
Speaker 1: That's what That's what happened with. Kat Williams went on
Speaker 1: like a three hour rant.
Speaker 2: I feel like Shannon would be a great time to
Speaker 2: hang out with. Like I bet back in the day
Speaker 2: when he was your teammate and you went out to
Speaker 2: the club with him, he would be a freaking great
Speaker 2: and he would go up and talk to any girl.
Speaker 2: I bet he just talks trash. Twenty four to seven.
Speaker 2: He would go up. He'd be in the club talking
Speaker 2: to like eight girls I wants, talking garbage about his
Speaker 2: teammates are hyping you up, like piping you up, you up?
Speaker 2: You see you know you see my boy over there.
Speaker 2: You see that touchdown he had. You see he needs
Speaker 2: a girl like you. He needs a back massage, he
Speaker 2: needs some relaxation. We need him ready for next week.
Speaker 2: Can you please go over there and just sit on
Speaker 2: his lap. I'm telling you, go looking guy. I see
Speaker 2: I seen him, seen him in the shower too before.
Speaker 2: I'm telling you he's looking at ultimate hype guy. B
Speaker 2: bet you would be like that.
Speaker 1: But he probably you probably hate playing against him, like
Speaker 1: we never played against him. You probably hate playing against
Speaker 1: Shannon Sharp just because of a his production, how good
Speaker 1: he was, and b he let you know how good
Speaker 1: he was.
Speaker 2: Most rip tight end of all time too. He's got
Speaker 2: he's up there, up there, he is the most ripped.
Speaker 1: Look at him, he's fucking jack.
Speaker 2: Jack biceps freaking sticking out.
Speaker 1: He loved at Hennessy. I see I've seen him drinking Hennessy.
Speaker 1: Is it a bunch right, there's always pictures. I swear
Speaker 1: he'll be working out. I don't know what it is,
Speaker 1: but this guy, I don't know how he can drink
Speaker 1: that alcohol and look that great God touched him because
Speaker 1: he he's fucking a monster in a great way. Who

Speaker 2: in front of him. You ain't touching Tom, I'm here,
Speaker 2: I'm chipping your ass even getting Yeah, but uh, I
Speaker 2: would never talk garbage back really to him because he
Speaker 2: was scary too. Yeah, he was scary.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know, Scott. Would you to Billy remember
Speaker 1: that in the playoff game?
Speaker 2: Yeah, Scott, Bart Scott.

Speaker 1: white boy, and Billy ohs, he goes, fuck you.
Speaker 2: I love him, Billy.

Speaker 1: What was Bart Scott's thing?
Speaker 2: Can't wait, can't wait, can't wait to lose the next game?
Speaker 1: Ten minutes is up? All right? What kind of dude
Speaker 1: is Shannon Sharp?
Speaker 2: I mean, freak, absolutely freak. He's from the weight room,
Speaker 2: freak on the field, freaking the sheet's just freaking on
Speaker 2: the Undisputed Show, freaking serious radio when he was on
Speaker 2: and he's been a freak his whole life.
Speaker 1: He's freaky.
Speaker 2: He's freaky, freaky, freaky.
Speaker 1: He's also he could be dog.
Speaker 2: Oh, but he's more of a freak.
Speaker 1: He's a freak. He's freaky Friday Stamp. He's a freaky Friday.
Speaker 1: Freaky Friday. Let's get on, George Kittle, Rob, What do
Speaker 1: you got? What's AI saying?
Speaker 2: Let's see what AI has today for me? George Kittle,
Speaker 2: Here we go.
Speaker 1: AI.
Speaker 2: George Kittle is known for being an exceptional tight end
Speaker 2: with a combination of dynamic receiving skills and strong blocking ability.
Speaker 2: He excels in both the passing game and the run game,
Speaker 2: using his athleticism, speed, and physicality to make plays and
Speaker 2: create opportunities. Kittle is also recognized for his toughness and versatility,
Speaker 2: making him a key weapon in the San Francisco forty
Speaker 2: nine ers offense. I agree his ability to gain yards
Speaker 2: after the catch and his effectiveness as a blocker make
Speaker 2: him one of the most well rounded and impactful tight
Speaker 2: ends in the NFL.
Speaker 1: Let's start the clock. We already should have We're two
Speaker 1: minutes in. Yeah, dude, Kittle, He's like the first of
Speaker 1: this whole Iowa fucking craze tight ends was in there.
Speaker 2: Not necessarily. I'm gonna kind of throw myself into that category.
Speaker 2: You want to know why you and Iowa. No, I
Speaker 2: didn't go to Iowa, but you want to know why.
Speaker 2: My first two years in the NFL, my tight end coach.
Speaker 1: Who was Brian Farrens. Brian Farren's offensive court Yes for
Speaker 1: the Iowa Hawk guys. I remember Brian Farrens. He'd always
Speaker 1: put you up on that board. He was a fun coach.
Speaker 2: I love Brian Farns. I'll still remember to this day
Speaker 2: some of the lessons he taught me. And first off,
Speaker 2: he taught me how to block. He's the one who
Speaker 2: helped make me the blocker of who I was in
Speaker 2: the NFL, which is very much exactly. And that's why
Speaker 2: kill is an all around tight end because they emphasized
Speaker 2: blocking first, no doubt about it. And on top of it, Brian,
Speaker 2: Brian Farrens many times always told me just keep being
Speaker 2: you man, You're an awesome guy. Keep being you.
Speaker 1: It's going to get you the places that you would
Speaker 1: never imagine.
Speaker 2: So thank you, Coach Farens. I'll still remember that to
Speaker 2: this day. What I loved about Coach Farnc He says,
Speaker 2: when you're nervous, you're ready. And I was nervous coming
Speaker 2: into this podcast. Well and I thought about him again.
Speaker 2: I thought about him every single game I had, and
Speaker 2: I was nervous. If you're nervous, you're ready. Thank you,
Speaker 2: Coach Farens.
Speaker 1: Do you know what? And it's crazy what Coach Farrence
Speaker 1: basically said to you is probably everything that like Kittle
Speaker 1: is kind of shoots out on the field, you know,
Speaker 1: selfless guy, be yourself. Which he's a very charismatic dude
Speaker 1: when you think of like he's a funny dude. He's
Speaker 1: the guy who started tight End You, which is this
Speaker 1: huge event which you get to go to all the time.
Speaker 1: Like he's a character not just off the field, but
Speaker 1: he's got that fun like little kid like rob kind
Speaker 1: of energy, like gronk energy when he's playing. Because you
Speaker 1: guys both like when you guys both play, it looks
Speaker 1: like you guys are having the funnest time ever. You know,
Speaker 1: like you guys like blocking. He loves blocking. Kittle gets
Speaker 1: open a lot because of how hard he blocks.
Speaker 2: It's the truth, man, And if you're a good blocker,
Speaker 2: in the NFL at the tight end position, you're gonna
Speaker 2: be able to get those easy passes thrown your way.
Speaker 2: That's the reward for blocking in the NFL is the
Speaker 2: play action passes. When the linebackers step up, the quarterbackers
Speaker 2: dumps it to you after the fake handoff to the
Speaker 2: running back and boom you catch it, you know, eight
Speaker 2: yards down the field and boom. Then you just make
Speaker 2: the safety miss.
Speaker 1: You can have a twenty yard game off of a
Speaker 1: little play action pass and just keep the chains moving.
Speaker 2: Well, here's the question. Miami University was tight end you
Speaker 2: Back in the day when I was high school, they
Speaker 2: had freaking Greg Olsen, Jeremy Shahi, Kellen Winslow, Winslow Junior.
Speaker 1: I'm a soldier.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm a soldier. And he's like that, because you
Speaker 2: want to know why he said it, because they absolutely
Speaker 2: leveled like five guys on one play and then they
Speaker 2: asked him about that play and then he goes, I'm
Speaker 2: a soldier. He's not taking any ship. He's in war.
Speaker 2: But they had a couple other guys as well that
Speaker 2: was going to a league that they were sending the
Speaker 2: backups were getting drafted.
Speaker 1: Greg Olsen, Greg Olsen, But I said, Greg Olsen, you
Speaker 1: know what, they will never forget Gregs. You can't. But
Speaker 1: that was the tight end you when we were growing up.
Speaker 1: That was tighten you. Now really has to be Iowa.
Speaker 1: And it's because of the start of this, this whole
Speaker 1: thing with Kittle, I mean Kettle fifth round draft pick,
Speaker 1: which makes it even more impressive. He's a fifth round guy.
Speaker 1: He wasn't the biggest dude, he wasn't the strongest dude,
Speaker 1: but he always fucking blocks his nuts off. He's willing
Speaker 1: to give his body up. He makes big time plays
Speaker 1: for his team when they need it. On a crucial
Speaker 1: third down, he makes red area blocks where he's taking
Speaker 1: his fucking defensive end and driving him in the end zone.
Speaker 1: Like he's the guy that you always want to play with.
Speaker 1: He's that that's that's the kind of and he's always fun.
Speaker 1: You could tell he's positive and he comes from like
Speaker 1: a lore of family from Iowa.
Speaker 2: Like what do you what do you mean, Jules? You
Speaker 2: can tell he is positive, Like that's just a well
Speaker 2: known fact that he is a positive guy. Whenever you're
Speaker 2: around George Kittle, like your aura just lifts up. He's
Speaker 2: just always looking for the best thing out of anything
Speaker 2: that happens. You know.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's very optimistic. He's like optimistic, positive thinker m hm,
Speaker 1: you know. And and honestly, that's the kind of vibes
Speaker 1: that you you gave off when we were in the
Speaker 1: locker room. It's there's guys that are hard. Oh's there's
Speaker 1: guys that are asshole. Like I was a guy that
Speaker 1: was like I had to be in a certain mindset
Speaker 1: to asshole. Yeah, I had to be an asshole, not
Speaker 1: an asshole, but.
Speaker 2: Like I, but you weren't. You weren't an asshole, but
Speaker 2: you were like.
Speaker 1: Okay, I made it.
Speaker 2: I made guys a heart. I was hard, No, but
Speaker 2: you weren't.
Speaker 1: That just a tad bit because you were, like you said,
Speaker 1: you were making them accountable.
Speaker 2: And that's what the technique you used to make them.
Speaker 1: And that's because I worked so hard and it took
Speaker 1: me a long place to get to where I got,
Speaker 1: so like that's what I was.
Speaker 2: Like.
Speaker 1: Then there was guys like Kiddle and yourself that like
Speaker 1: you guys work insanely hard. You do great in the classroom,
Speaker 1: but you do it with like a smile on your face,
Speaker 1: and you're always happy, Like there's different guys in the
Speaker 1: locker room and you. And that's what I feel when
Speaker 1: I think of like George Kittle, that guys is just
Speaker 1: like a positive, great dude to have around, especially with
Speaker 1: you know, their locker room. They got so many different
Speaker 1: charismatics characters there. You're like, it's it's just a great piece.
Speaker 1: I think he's a freaking baller.
Speaker 2: And going back to Iowa and about and being tight
Speaker 2: end you. They also had TJ.
Speaker 1: Hockinson come out of Iowa highest paid tight ends in
Speaker 1: the game.
Speaker 2: Noah fan Font how do you say his last name? Faint?
Speaker 1: I don't know, fine, Noah Font. Yes, yes, he's a
Speaker 1: great player. He's huge, man. That dude's huge. Hole.
Speaker 2: You got Sam Laporta, the best rookie last year, went
Speaker 2: to the Pro Bowls over eight hundred yards. I'm sure
Speaker 2: he's going to have over a thousand yards on ten
Speaker 2: plus tds this year as well. Give the University of
Speaker 2: Iowa for this decade, you know, to be known as
Speaker 2: tight end you.
Speaker 1: For sure, for sure. The story about his dad writing
Speaker 1: letters before every game, that's pretty hard hitting. Did your
Speaker 1: pups ever write you anything?
Speaker 2: No, my pops never wrote me anything like that. But
Speaker 2: he always motivated me, especially growing up. He always told me, hey,
Speaker 2: if you want to be better than everyone else, if
Speaker 2: you want to get to the next level, you got
Speaker 2: to outwork everyone. And my dad's been selling fitness equipment
Speaker 2: for over thirty years now. So you put a weight
Speaker 2: room in the basement and said, hey, hey, you want
Speaker 2: to make it to the pros. Buddy, you want to
Speaker 2: make it. You want to be able to dunk, you
Speaker 2: want to be able to block, you want to be
Speaker 2: able to toss guys around. Well, get your ass in
Speaker 2: the weight room and get stronger. Now, you know, he
Speaker 2: wasn't a hard ass about it, but he always let
Speaker 2: us that way. Hey, get in the basement. Now, you
Speaker 2: want to be strong, get in the basement. You want
Speaker 2: to whoop some ass, Get in the basement.
Speaker 1: That you got to have that he's got that same
Speaker 1: You know, it's it may be different because he's getting
Speaker 1: letters and you're eating weights. You know it's still that
Speaker 1: dad kind of love like I had mine, in a
Speaker 1: different way. You always know and hear about him and
Speaker 1: his relationship with his family. He seems like just a
Speaker 1: fun dude off the field too.
Speaker 2: He has a fun you ever hung out with him.
Speaker 2: I've only hung out with him at Tight On You,
Speaker 2: and I just met him a couple other times, just
Speaker 2: really quick and he's always fun, just so positive. And
Speaker 2: what I love about him though, is that we are
Speaker 2: very similar. That's for sure. We have similar game. He's
Speaker 2: an all around tight end and he's the best all
Speaker 2: around tight end in the game right now. Yes, blocker, Yes,
Speaker 2: in the receiving game. What I really love about him
Speaker 2: is he's a WWE fan, bro and he's an ultimate
Speaker 2: WWE fan. Pretty sure. He's done a couple of things
Speaker 2: with WWE. I think with WrestleMania. I think his favorite
Speaker 2: wrestlers like Luca Hanna, Luka Hanahanas. He has that vibe
Speaker 2: to go into wrestling after he's done playing, he'd always
Speaker 2: be cutting WWE promos. He's always upb I mean, he's
Speaker 2: got great energy. I mean, in order to start National
Speaker 2: tight End Day, he started tight End You while playing.
Speaker 2: He's got a lot of juice and that's why people
Speaker 2: love him. That's why his teammates love him.
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm sure, how many guys do you think
Speaker 1: he has picked up on his team that are down? Yeah?
Speaker 2: I don't feel like playing right there? He is he's
Speaker 2: there every day. Hey guys, let's go let's go let's
Speaker 2: have fun. Let's go make some plays, let's go cut
Speaker 2: some balls, let's go do this, let's go do that.
Speaker 2: You know, he's just ooras to pick guys up around him.
Speaker 2: That's a guy you want in your locker, om, guy
Speaker 2: you want on your team, especially at the tight end position,
Speaker 2: the best position in the game. I mean not biased,
Speaker 2: you know.
Speaker 1: I mean he was a standout on the TV show Receiver.
Speaker 1: I mean that's how big of a or he has
Speaker 1: for a tight end, like he would under Receiver and
Speaker 1: pretty much dominated that show. Not saying like statistically this that,
Speaker 1: but like his story was like so fun watching on
Speaker 1: him and his family. And he's got a crazy sneaker collection.
Speaker 1: He's a monster.
Speaker 2: He has a monster and it's just he's like a
Speaker 2: guy that you want to work out with when you're
Speaker 2: working out. Sometimes you go into the workout and you're like,
Speaker 2: I gotta work out.
Speaker 1: He's like James Devil in the weight room.
Speaker 2: Yeah he is.
Speaker 1: But then you just start working out him and boom of,
Speaker 1: the switch is switched and he was just.
Speaker 2: Like turning the lights on you just when you're around him.
Speaker 2: You hit that switch up and boom, the lights are on.
Speaker 1: I bet you he has a come out to the
Speaker 1: weight room song when he goes into the weight room,
Speaker 1: like he probably puts on one song like a wrestling song,
Speaker 1: like a like a stone cold.
Speaker 4: Like.
Speaker 1: That's how I bet he starts his fucking workout because
Speaker 1: he's so like that.
Speaker 2: What I don't like about him, though, is he broke
Speaker 2: my receiving record. Well, Travis Kelsey did too that year,
Speaker 2: but George Kittle broke my receiver. I had thirteen hundred
Speaker 2: and twenty seven yards that one year, and uh yeah
Speaker 2: he broke that. And plus he had a two hundred
Speaker 2: plus yard game, which rememberable as a tight end on
Speaker 2: two hundred plus yards.
Speaker 1: But that's ten minutes.
Speaker 2: We got to determine, Oh my gosh, absolute monster.
Speaker 1: So where do we put him? Then? What kind of
Speaker 1: dude is he? What kind of dude? Is a freak,
Speaker 1: a dog, a whiz or a dude's dude. I mean
Speaker 1: he's kind of a dude's dude.
Speaker 2: I think.
Speaker 1: So he's a stud, Like he's so positive, like people
Speaker 1: don't for.
Speaker 2: You understand either. He's a freak.
Speaker 1: Bro This guy is so strong pound for pounds he
Speaker 1: might be the strongest guy on the team, and he's
Speaker 1: got that weird leverage streak like.
Speaker 2: That lifts like five hundred plus pounds from what I hear.
Speaker 2: I never worked out with him, but he's.
Speaker 1: Mentally he's got dog in him. But I'm leaning towards dudes.
Speaker 2: Dude, he is a dude's dude.
Speaker 1: I gotta go with that because he's a locker room guy,
Speaker 1: locker room positive energy, come cool collect always. I've never
Speaker 1: seen a bad micd up on him.
Speaker 2: No, I never have.
Speaker 1: Man, I got yell at referees and I've swore like
Speaker 1: he's just like always.
Speaker 2: Like I actually envy his energy.
Speaker 1: I want his energy. Oh wait, time out. Wow, we
Speaker 1: forgot his picture as well, Jules. I blame that on you.
Speaker 1: I blame that on you, Jewels, because you were the
Speaker 1: veteran with the pictures on the very first show, and
Speaker 1: that was my first time I needed to be reminded
Speaker 1: the picture is you forgot? But there he is, everyone
Speaker 1: there he is. That picture just exemplifies him. That explains
Speaker 1: him totally tongue out, having a good old time smiling
Speaker 1: with his tongue out.
Speaker 2: You know how you know.
Speaker 1: That's all greasy hasn't showered in a week, just has
Speaker 1: dudes all over him from the last practice. Swaggy sneaker.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, oh, man.
Speaker 1: George Kittle, he's a Dude's dude, he's a dude.
Speaker 2: He is. I just on the field, off the field.
Speaker 1: We'll be right back after this quick break. Our last
Speaker 1: guy is someone that played before us. We never played
Speaker 1: with him. A legend, tall, handsome, crazy stories about him,
Speaker 1: you know, crazy urban legends about like he would only
Speaker 1: have al.
Speaker 2: Dubras L doublas is. I'm not saying what the al
Speaker 2: dobras mean. I don't even know what that type of
Speaker 2: L doubles they were, But I heard the word in
Speaker 2: the street was L dobras only or nothing?
Speaker 1: What does L dobla mean?
Speaker 2: Not just one but two jewels?
Speaker 1: L doublas.
Speaker 2: He was so good looking he wanted allow just one
Speaker 2: L doubla. It is he would allow two only. And
Speaker 2: I mean that's just a word on this urban myth.
Speaker 2: And let me tell you it was my rookie year
Speaker 2: when I heard that urban myth, and man, did I
Speaker 2: think it was one of the coolest things I've ever heard.
Speaker 2: I wanted to be like this guy more than anyone.
Speaker 1: Else many Gonzalez.
Speaker 2: I mean I already kind of know already from the
Speaker 2: beginning what category he fits in.
Speaker 1: But what's our co pilot say, rob Let's see what our.
Speaker 2: Co pilot says about Tony. H good, old Tony Gunzalez.
Speaker 2: He basically has every record in the record book at
Speaker 2: number one.
Speaker 1: For a long time. Keep it for the time limit,
Speaker 1: We'll keep it.
Speaker 2: They're talking about keep it for the time all right,
Speaker 2: hit the time limit. Now we're going to start the
Speaker 2: time limit when the co pilots. Yeah, that makes sense.
Speaker 2: We're taking off, co pilot, check your engines, check engines on.
Speaker 2: Tony Gunzalees was a highly skilled and versatile tight end
Speaker 2: in American full known for his exceptional receiving abilities. He
Speaker 2: was renowned, right, that was the right word again, renowned. Hey,
Speaker 2: they use this word twice now, I.
Speaker 1: Mean, you know it's English.
Speaker 2: That's not good. We're smarter than co pilot. For his
Speaker 2: precise route running, reliable hands, and athleticism. Over his career,
Speaker 2: Gonzalez became one of the greatest tight ends in NFL
Speaker 2: history history, earning fourteen Pro Bowl selections. Let me put
Speaker 2: the let me put this stat into perspective. I've only
Speaker 2: played eleven football seasons in my career, fourteen Pro.
Speaker 1: Bowl selections, timeless Latin don't crack, baby.
Speaker 2: They don't. And numerous records for receptions in receiving yards
Speaker 2: at his position, including the tight end touchdown record as well.
Speaker 2: I think he has like one hundred, like twenty six touchdowns. Actually, no,
Speaker 2: Antonio Gates hold that holds that rector, Yeah he does,
Speaker 2: My bad, But Tony Gonzalez holds every other record, all right.
Speaker 2: His ability to contribute both as a receiver and a
Speaker 2: blocker made him a key asset to any and that's
Speaker 2: the truth. He played for two teams. He was an
Speaker 2: absolute legend with the Kansas City Chiefs, and then he
Speaker 2: went to like the Atlanta Falcons at like what thirty three,
Speaker 2: thirty four years.
Speaker 1: Old and still balled.
Speaker 2: And still ball at that age. I remember Coach Belichick.
Speaker 2: We played the Falcons a couple of times when I
Speaker 2: was a rookie, second year, third year player, and all
Speaker 2: he did was circle Tony Gonzalez and said, we have
Speaker 2: to stop this guy. We want to win if we
Speaker 2: want to have, you know, the ability to have a
Speaker 2: chance if the defense wants to perform well, we have
Speaker 2: to stop Tony Gonzalais. We gotta jam him off the line.
Speaker 2: He makes contested catches. So you got to follow through
Speaker 2: with the play, you know, make sure he doesn't get
Speaker 2: up and jump over you, make sure he doesn't turn
Speaker 2: and get that ball. You gotta follow every movie makes
Speaker 2: from the start of the play to the end of
Speaker 2: the play, and you gotta double cover him.
Speaker 1: You got to. You got him. I loved him though, because,
Speaker 1: oh my god, I remember at Berkeley he was playing basketball,
Speaker 1: dunking on dudes like he was a fucking athlete. He's
Speaker 1: He's one of the first like athletic tight ends, like
Speaker 1: pure athlete tight ends that the game has seen.
Speaker 2: He was so smooth and he was one of the
Speaker 2: first ever to start that tradition of hey, a basketball player,
Speaker 2: a power forward can play in the NFL at the
Speaker 2: tight end position. And he played basketball at kal So
Speaker 2: shout out to the Pac ten. He played in the
Speaker 2: PAC ten. I played in the PAC ten. Yes, rest
Speaker 2: in peace to the whole Pack twelve conference.
Speaker 1: To play in the Pac ten. But keep going RP. Yeah.
Speaker 2: He made it to the Sweet sixteen at the University
Speaker 2: of California and in two thousand and two. He played
Speaker 2: in the NBA Summer League as well for the Miami Heat.
Speaker 2: That's just a type of athlete Tony Gonzalez was, and
Speaker 2: I feel like that's kind of why he was the
Speaker 2: player he was, and why he was so durable too,
Speaker 2: because he had that basketball background. I feel like basketball
Speaker 2: players sustain their athleticism and skill set way longer than.
Speaker 1: The football players.
Speaker 2: They're way more fluid, they're way more flexible, so much
Speaker 2: more smooth.
Speaker 1: I feel like this muscle is sometimes better for that
Speaker 1: it is.
Speaker 2: And I feel like football players trained well, No, I
Speaker 2: mean trained the wrong way. Trained too hard, We trained
Speaker 2: too higher, too, made us too stiff. And that's what
Speaker 2: made him the player that he was, because he trained
Speaker 2: like a basketball player.
Speaker 1: He always just he just was smooth. Always, he always
Speaker 1: looked smooth, you know. Apparently the urban religion is that
Speaker 1: he smoothed off the field as well. But uh, you know,
Speaker 1: whenever you saw him go up and catch a ball,
Speaker 1: like in slow motion, it almost looked like he was
Speaker 1: a dancer, like with how effortless and light he was
Speaker 1: on his feet for such a big dude. And then
Speaker 1: him always dunking the football and the goal post is
Speaker 1: something that I remember through my childhood and early on
Speaker 1: in my career when he was at the later part
Speaker 1: of his career that he did all the time.
Speaker 2: And kind of like that football you know, I mean
Speaker 2: the basketball transition to the NFL. I feel like the
Speaker 2: guy was so durable as well. He missed like what
Speaker 2: two games in his career? Yeah, play, well, how many
Speaker 2: you only missed two games? Eighteen seasons? How many seasons
Speaker 2: did he play eighteen nineteen to how many games? It
Speaker 2: was something ridiculous, that's insane. It was just nuts.
Speaker 1: He was just just an absolute animal, so smooth, so athletic,
Speaker 1: and he was great off the field too.
Speaker 2: One of the best looking guys I've ever seen. Still
Speaker 2: still to this dayansome. He still looks like I was
Speaker 2: watching him on Thursday Night Football last night. But he's
Speaker 2: a great analyst as well, you know, he just speaks
Speaker 2: the truth, he gives his insight. He's great for Amazon.
Speaker 2: And he was just looking so he was looking tan, shiny, handsome.
Speaker 1: He had that white outfit on with like he had
Speaker 1: like that fringe kind of thing going.
Speaker 2: Haird was on point.
Speaker 1: Hair has always been on point. Tony Gonzalez has head spectacular.
Speaker 1: It seems like it hasn't colored.
Speaker 2: I bet this guy would walk into a club or
Speaker 2: bar in the middle of his heydays and he wouldn't
Speaker 2: even have to say a word, and the fricking janitarous
Speaker 2: would have to come out and put those signs as say.
Speaker 1: Caution, what.
Speaker 2: Don't slip? He is that because he got all the
Speaker 2: girls panties going. There's no doubt he didn't even have
Speaker 2: to say a word. He would just walk in. That's
Speaker 2: the type of swag Tony Gonzalez has.
Speaker 1: He was that good looking and he was swaggy Aura.
Speaker 2: And it translated to the field as well. His play
Speaker 2: was just like a good looking Robert.
Speaker 1: What are some of the things that you tried to
Speaker 1: emulate from Tony's game?
Speaker 2: Just overall, he was a complete tight end as well.
Speaker 2: It wasn't the greatest blocker of all time, but he
Speaker 2: did it. He exemplified what being a tight end was.
Speaker 2: You know, he went pancake guys, but he would get
Speaker 2: in the way, he would move guys. He was willing
Speaker 2: to block. That's kind of what made him so great.
Speaker 2: Just as a kid, Tony Gonzalez was one of my
Speaker 2: heroes growing up. I remember in Buffalo when I was
Speaker 2: there growing up, I was in high school. You know,
Speaker 2: the Bills weren't that good, but there was a chance
Speaker 2: that Tony Gonzalez was about to get traded to the
Speaker 2: Buffalo Bills, because he eventually did get traded to the
Speaker 2: Atlanta Falcons. And there's always talk because he was always
Speaker 2: on such crappy teams in Kansas City and he always performed.
Speaker 2: He always produced and that's what made him so great.
Speaker 2: But uh, there's always trade talks as well at the
Speaker 2: end of his career with Kansas City for like five years,
Speaker 2: because he wanted to go win. And I remember our
Speaker 2: whole entire high school was talking about Tony Gonzalez going
Speaker 2: to the Buffalo Bills. Just how excited we all were
Speaker 2: because Tony Gonzalez was gonna possibly get traded. Could you happen?
Speaker 1: Could you imagine high school version of Rob and his
Speaker 1: boys in Buffalo, like we're back to the super Bowl exactly?
Speaker 2: That was exactly how it went. This is true.
Speaker 1: You know, he really did evolve. I think he's one
Speaker 1: of the huge figures or guys that help evolve tight
Speaker 1: end position. In that nineties window. Now there was great
Speaker 1: tight ends. The winning wins Lows and the Dikas in
Speaker 1: the back of the day, Like those were really great
Speaker 1: tight ends. But you know it was kind of like
Speaker 1: those guys put their hand in the dirt and you
Speaker 1: know they were just kind of like an extension of
Speaker 1: the run game that sometimes went out to catch a pass.
Speaker 1: You know. Tony Gonzalez, he came like he became. I
Speaker 1: remember watching him, which we used to do a lot
Speaker 1: with you putting him outside the formation in the red
Speaker 1: area and saying, hey, we're just gonna play jump ball
Speaker 1: with our tight end. Like I don't remember that before
Speaker 1: Tony Gonzalez. And I'm sure people are gonna hit us
Speaker 1: in the comment sections with a bunch of guys that did.
Speaker 1: But like for my era of football that I grew
Speaker 1: up with, that's what I remember. Tony Gonzalez just always
Speaker 1: having the ball in his hand, always doubled, finding a way,
Speaker 1: like super savvy route runner, like space guy because of basketball.
Speaker 1: It's very similar to basketball and space. He was great
Speaker 1: the space. And then you know the guy was just
Speaker 1: freaking good looking.
Speaker 2: He was good looking. That was a great way to
Speaker 2: end that, you know, that phrase of just everything you
Speaker 2: said about it.
Speaker 1: Could you me he'd probably be he'd probably be considered
Speaker 1: one of the best, because they say one of the
Speaker 1: best with Tony Gonzalez. If he had a Super Bowl,
Speaker 1: would he be the best?
Speaker 2: I feel like that not winning the Super Bowl is
Speaker 2: definitely hindering him. Yeah, it kind of sucks because he
Speaker 2: did everything possible and then more every single year.
Speaker 1: Every year it was like a long time.
Speaker 2: It wasn't like he had he had. I think he
Speaker 2: led the league in receptions one year in two thousand
Speaker 2: and four, one hundred and two catches, Like when was
Speaker 2: the last time a tight end led the league in receptions,
Speaker 2: and like the next year he would have ninety five receptions.
Speaker 2: The next year he would edit eighty five, next year
Speaker 2: he would have whatever ninety more. I got, Like, he
Speaker 2: was so freaking consistent and he never won a championship.
Speaker 2: Like that's a tough situation to be in. That's sad.
Speaker 2: That kind of sucks as a player to play that
Speaker 2: long and be that consistent and just never been on
Speaker 2: the right team. You know, he kind of almost won
Speaker 2: one with Atlanta. I think they went, you know, to
Speaker 2: the playoffs a couple of times, but that was when
Speaker 2: we were in our era. You weren't you weren't going
Speaker 2: to beat US Patriots. But that just sucks having little
Speaker 2: team success and always just giving it your all and
Speaker 2: always showing up, and it's hindering him. I would say,
Speaker 2: in the tight end rankings, you people say all Gronk,
Speaker 2: which myself Kelsey, you know. I mean, Tony Gonzalez is
Speaker 2: always up there, But I see people not put him
Speaker 2: in their top five before, like Antonio Gates, well, Mike Dicker,
Speaker 2: they say, you know in Winslow, Yeah, winslow. But Tony
Speaker 2: Gonzalez exemplified what being a tight end is.
Speaker 1: He's the one nowadays.
Speaker 2: He's the one that made being a tight end cool
Speaker 2: to younger kids like myself.
Speaker 1: I mean, he was such a badass in Kansas City
Speaker 1: his rookie year. He had a flu game, a Jordan
Speaker 1: type flu game, where he bawled the fuck out, managed
Speaker 1: to catch a touchdown pass, and he created the performance
Speaker 1: to eating some chicken soup, like, how smooth is this guy?
Speaker 2: Well, what food gives you super power? Jewels? Chicken soup
Speaker 2: was was Tony Gonzalez's super power.
Speaker 1: I would say tomato soup. I'm more of a tomato soup.
Speaker 2: I feel like you were the English muffin with sausage,
Speaker 2: hag cheese sausage English muffin. I remember every single day
Speaker 2: you ate that, and it was like giving you your superpower.
Speaker 1: I'd have a smoothie F five and then I'd have
Speaker 1: my right before right before team eating sausage, egg and chiese. Ye.
Speaker 2: That's what it is now, is your superpower? Tomato soup.
Speaker 2: I never seen you have tomatoes soup. Body.
Speaker 1: I loved Mano soup. Yeah, I never seen you eat it,
Speaker 1: but I was just trying to reference because of soup.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but you never eat tomatoes, did you?
Speaker 1: Did you have a favorite pregame soup super power? Did?
Speaker 2: I always had my chaldip milk with a peanut butter
Speaker 2: and jelly. And the jelly was my mom's homemade jelly.
Speaker 2: What kind of fruit strawberry strawberry jam?
Speaker 1: Your mom made homemade jam?
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's the best strawberry jelly ever.
Speaker 1: I remember she came over with that chicken buffalo dip
Speaker 1: or whatever that was good with rich crackers, and that's
Speaker 1: what you dip it in.
Speaker 2: She made that as well. Stop talking about my mom.
Speaker 1: Let's get onto. Let's get on.
Speaker 2: What dudes do though? Du do talk about moms though,
Speaker 2: I mean so, I guess so, I mean you're giving
Speaker 2: her prop so I guess you can keep talking about
Speaker 2: my mom.
Speaker 1: I ain't say anything sideways about.
Speaker 2: But I know where you go anything, I know where
Speaker 2: you go. Get out of here, missus, Allaman, I love her.
Speaker 2: I just sorry. You remember at the live show? Yeah
Speaker 2: that was cool, but your dad was there, so I
Speaker 2: couldn't get a little inappropriate ten minutes. So ten minutes
Speaker 2: is up?
Speaker 1: And what kind of dude is Tony Gonzalez? This one
Speaker 1: was easy.
Speaker 2: I mean it's like I said, he's a dudes dude.
Speaker 2: You know, he's a dog. He's a freak. But the
Speaker 2: most you know, the most characteristic that Tony Gonzalez exemplifies.
Speaker 2: It's definitely on and off the field, big time, like
Speaker 2: no doubt about it. He's a freaking stud stud.
Speaker 1: He's a stud stud at everything he does, basketball, football, analyst,
Speaker 1: breaking every record, bar settings. He's probably a stud. Yeah,
Speaker 1: super stud, super stud. He's like he's like that horse
Speaker 1: that you like, you know, you go out and you
Speaker 1: made it, Hey you get that stud com Yeah, he's
Speaker 1: a stud.
Speaker 2: He's a stud horse. I wonder if he has a
Speaker 2: thing as big as a horse too, because yeah, he's
Speaker 2: a he's a stud. I'm not gonna try and imagine that,
Speaker 2: but I would probably say, but you just imagined it. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I would probably say, so, that's just Tony. He's such
Speaker 2: a stud muffin. He's like every muffin too, stud muffing,
Speaker 2: a littleberry muffin. He's a Cinna cinnamon muffin. He's the
Speaker 2: regular muffin muffins like a lemon, Yeah, lemon poppies. He's
Speaker 2: a poppy seed. Like he makes those girls like feel
Speaker 2: like they're numb.
Speaker 1: Yeah, because that's what poppy seeds do, don't. They give
Speaker 1: you a high, like morphine high if you need. I
Speaker 1: think that's where they make sheroin from. But that's what from.
Speaker 1: I don't think that's from the muffin.
Speaker 2: Though, No, it's from the poppy seeds. Yeah.
Speaker 1: But like I think there's like a real extensive That's
Speaker 1: why he's a little ex lemon poppy sea.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but he is the extraction.
Speaker 1: All right, Let's get onto our next. Let's say our next.
Speaker 2: Put up the headshot, ladies and gentlemen, our next tight

Speaker 2: Greg Olsen is celebrated as one of the top tight
Speaker 2: ends in NFL history, known for his reliable hands. We
Speaker 2: were talking about that earlier, with the most reliable hands
Speaker 2: in the NFL. Yes, he does, and route running skills

Speaker 2: get numbers.
Speaker 1: He's saying he's full of kids.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we're for the kids. Yes. Olsen made a significant
Speaker 2: impact on the Carolina Panthers, helping them reach Super Bowl
Speaker 2: fifty and becoming the first tight end in history to
Speaker 2: have three consecutive one thousand yard receiving seasons from twenty
Speaker 2: fourteen to twenty sixteen. He holds the Panthers franchise records
Speaker 2: for most receiving yards. He's lucky I got hurt because
Speaker 2: I would have held that three one thousand yard seasons.
Speaker 1: In a row. But it's not about me. Why am
Speaker 1: I making about me? Tight Ends, don't make it about yourself.
Speaker 1: I'm not about me. Yeah, slot receiving, it's our little
Speaker 1: guys in us because we're not full diva. But we
Speaker 1: got a little diva.
Speaker 2: It's about Greg Olsen. Here also Panthers franchise records for
Speaker 2: most receiving yards, receptions, and one hundred yard receiving games
Speaker 2: by a tight end. After retiring, Olsen transitioned to a
Speaker 2: successful career in sports broadcasting. He's one of our teammates
Speaker 2: right when our team's really good. Further showcasing his football acumen,
Speaker 2: he does have a lot of football documen. I can
Speaker 2: tell you that.
Speaker 1: What what is that like? Like knowledge?
Speaker 2: The word for knowledge? Cinnamon for knowledge, not a right
Speaker 2: synonymous synonymous?
Speaker 1: Yeah, freaking cinnamon, right, cinnamon?
Speaker 2: Yeah, cinema, he's tasty, He's tasty. Okay, No, Wow, this
Speaker 2: is bad, Joe, this is bad. This is dude's just
Speaker 2: being dude though. This is what it's all about, dudes,
Speaker 2: just being dudes and just showing you who you are.
Speaker 2: We're not perfect.
Speaker 1: Cinnamon, bro, Yes, cinnamon, that's same now for now?
Speaker 2: Yeah, now it is he the English Dictionary better change
Speaker 2: that word to this cinnamon cinnamon cinnamon. No, oh, well,
Speaker 2: you want to know what acumen means. I kind of
Speaker 2: know that from the back of my head. I was
Speaker 2: reading a book. They had the word. It's the ability
Speaker 2: to make good judgments and quick decisions. And that actually
Speaker 2: explains Greg Olsen in his game, and that's why he
Speaker 2: had over a thousand yards in three seasons in a
Speaker 2: row because of his quick decisions and when you're really
Speaker 2: quick at top of the route when you have a
Speaker 2: two way go like Greg Olsen his favorite route of
Speaker 2: all time. He kind of runs kind of like diagonally
Speaker 2: to like the ten yard mark where he has to
Speaker 2: go and then the linebacker's sitting there at a safety
Speaker 2: and you got to either split right like a bow
Speaker 2: or split in. What's the split in route where you
Speaker 2: like a middle reed? No, no, not a middle read
Speaker 2: like kind of like a cross. No, no, you go
Speaker 2: and it's like a angle an angle route. But it's
Speaker 2: that between the ten yards and twelve yards. You can
Speaker 2: eat bow it or angle it like an angle at
Speaker 2: ten Yeah, no, because it's not a middle read, because
Speaker 2: you a middle read is when it's post double safety
Speaker 2: and go in the middle. So he was so good
Speaker 2: at making that decision and being decisive of should he
Speaker 2: go out and the guy and the defender should go in.
Speaker 2: And that's where he made his brad and money, bread
Speaker 2: and money bred in money.
Speaker 1: You just went old full Will Ferrell in old school
Speaker 1: right there? Did you guys see that? Did you guys
Speaker 1: see that?
Speaker 2: That's his documen? He literally ladies Will Ferrell.

Speaker 1: such great hands like he he would go up and
Speaker 1: make those one handers. He did a lot of one
Speaker 1: hander catches. He had great ball skills. And he was
