Speaker 1: with ups by the way I got the Uh, they
Speaker 1: don't have like the overnight option. Because some things are
Speaker 1: print on demand.
Speaker 4: You don't necessarily know that are gonna fly off the
Speaker 4: shelves because we drop a lot of merch so.

Speaker 3: to have overhead or we's got a lot of items
Speaker 3: we don't we don't have a lot of overhead stackings,
Speaker 3: so we got to kind of print on demand.

Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, a boy, and you get that with the
Speaker 4: shirt with while we're in the merch. I feel like
Speaker 4: that game over. That's a automatic retweeting my book. That's
Speaker 4: an automatic ret an automatical retweeting the book viral.
Speaker 3: You gotta have that.
Speaker 1: Speaking of viral, dude, Jake Paul lost first time ever,
Speaker 1: first time ever?
Speaker 3: How many how many fights? I don't know.
Speaker 1: He was fighting middle aged men, uh and YouTubers. Now,
Speaker 1: I am a fan of the Paul brothers. I'm a
Speaker 1: big fan of that. But that's like the big criticism
Speaker 1: that's coming out of there. Tommy fiery, who's a legit boxer,
Speaker 1: allegedly Dave Portner, I didn't think so. He was in
Speaker 1: the Joe Rogan podcast. He said he's not. Joe Rogan
Speaker 1: is the first time I saw him get a little
Speaker 1: fiery at Dave because they were kind of in a
Speaker 1: limbo of like, oh, we're going to be friends there
Speaker 1: courting each other in front of his for three hours.
Speaker 3: Dave was firing up Joe. Dave was firing was nice
Speaker 3: as you watched the first He's not a real box
Speaker 3: He's not a real boxer, and it's put decision.
Speaker 1: What I was told, what I heard because I didn't
Speaker 1: I wasn't able to watch it yesterday, had a great
Speaker 1: day with the kids.
Speaker 3: Didn't watch it.
Speaker 1: I heard Tommy Fiery owned that fight the entire time,
Speaker 1: and it wasn't It wasn't a great showing. Jake really, yeah,
Speaker 1: well you know that. I mean, that's just how it rolls.
Speaker 1: Sometimes the doves a dub. They don't ask how, they
Speaker 1: ask how many. That's what the fucking deal is boys.
Speaker 3: And I didn't.
Speaker 1: I did see a post fight interview with Jake Paul.
Speaker 1: I did not like the way he handled himself.
Speaker 3: I see, I did not get to see them.
Speaker 2: I was he fra He blamed Drake for the loss.
Speaker 5: Drake put four hundred thousand dollars on him the day
Speaker 5: before the Drake curses.
Speaker 3: Back in effect he shoulder Injuryke.
Speaker 5: He followed, he goes, you shouldn't have bet on me.
Speaker 5: He goes, this all falls on Drake, and then he
Speaker 5: that was like, I.
Speaker 3: Think more of like his that was a joke. That
Speaker 3: was a joke interview.
Speaker 5: And then he was like, you know, we don't look
Speaker 5: at my wins, we look at our losses and I'll
Speaker 5: be back and better than ever.
Speaker 2: And he's like, my shoulder was heard.
Speaker 1: I was like sick through He's sick twice during cam.
Speaker 5: Every excuse in the book, and then he's like, I'm
Speaker 5: not making excuse me, like you know, so doing that
Speaker 5: whole thing.
Speaker 3: And it's tough.
Speaker 1: Well, Jake Paul beat my ass in a fight, no
Speaker 1: fucking question, Dude, does your boy know how to throw hands?
Speaker 3: I don't know, it's been a long time.
Speaker 4: You'll throw a fist hard, and a fist hard and fast,
Speaker 4: but I get over extended quick and I probably get
Speaker 4: beat two pieces.
Speaker 1: You gotta land, Yeah, I'm sure if I landed on Jakie,
Speaker 1: he might go night and night. But also, your boy's
Speaker 1: gonna catch two pieces of a side of biscuits.
Speaker 4: If he's that's if he's looking, if he's not looking,
Speaker 4: I guarantee I beat Jake Paul's asked you, I probably
Speaker 4: get him both asked.
Speaker 3: I get both the Paul brothers. I'm a fan. I'm
Speaker 3: a fan of them.
Speaker 1: I love what they've done, their pivots, they've made obviously
Speaker 1: hold the whole thing with the forest back in the day,
Speaker 1: but they were big on vine for a little bit
Speaker 1: YouTubers and we're big Vine voye.
Speaker 3: We're a big Vine voice, and so I do. I didn't.
Speaker 1: I didn't like the I didn't like the postgame interview.
Speaker 1: I didn't like that. But overall, I hope the boy
Speaker 1: comes back. I hope they have another fight, and I
Speaker 1: hope Jake wins.
Speaker 3: I don't. I don't know.
Speaker 4: There's people saying they don't wouldn't give a shit about
Speaker 4: a rematch, just like, ultimately, what's the rematch about?
Speaker 5: I think it was only if Jake lost. There's a
Speaker 5: clause in the contract where he can actually right.
Speaker 4: A legal clause in the contract. But like you, almost
Speaker 4: the somebody.
Speaker 2: They make more money.
Speaker 5: They're gonna make fucking five million more each probably off
Speaker 5: a rematch, and pay per view will eat it up
Speaker 5: because it's Jake Paul.
Speaker 2: And he's in the center of attention right now.
Speaker 4: But do you think I feel like the views and
Speaker 4: stuff would be a lot lower going to see a rematch.
Speaker 3: I'm sure it's almost the pool too.
Speaker 4: It is you want to see Jake finally beat somebody
Speaker 4: that's got some ability in the boxing room.
Speaker 3: Yeah that's a professional box Yeah, it's a professional boxer.
Speaker 4: And since he lost to him, it's almost like this
Speaker 4: guy Tommy furious, like, well, what does he do now?
Speaker 3: Do is he fight for the title?
Speaker 4: No, he's not even that good of a boxer and
Speaker 4: somebody else he just goes and fight somebody else in
Speaker 4: the middle to for making bags. Yeah, and and winning
Speaker 4: like there, and he had so much fucking going on
Speaker 4: or surrounding that. And Jake's like doing the videos the
Speaker 4: night before talking about double down, double the bed. If
Speaker 4: you win, he gets he'll pay double. If he loses,
Speaker 4: he gets nothing. Doing all this stuff, like hearing all
Speaker 4: that trash talk and still like going out there and winning,
Speaker 4: and it sounds like like winning every round pretty much. Besides,
Speaker 4: like he got knocked down for a second in the
Speaker 4: eighth round, like he's opped up right. Beside from that,
Speaker 4: it's like, you know, good for him on on on
Speaker 4: beating Jake Paul. It's like the Paul brothers, Like Jake
Speaker 4: Paul specifically, he's done such a genius job of placing
Speaker 4: himself in the spotlight. Well yeah, Logan Paul. But I'm saying,
Speaker 4: like jake'sone out there, like yeah, Logan Paul, He's.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's a little delusion all about how many rounds
Speaker 1: he won, and I don't know boxing like that, but
Speaker 1: I watched I watched that fight, and it really didn't
Speaker 1: seem like yeah, but.
Speaker 4: Either way, you're out there fighting one of the one
Speaker 4: of the grace of all time. All brothers have went
Speaker 4: about their entire careers and journeys and everything that put
Speaker 4: themselves in the middle of the spotlight. We're talking about
Speaker 4: showtime boxing, a pay per view, and he's legitimately trying
Speaker 4: to box. Yes, he lost to somebody that's not considered
Speaker 4: a good boxer in the sport, but also it's like
Speaker 4: he's out there fucking He's brought himself all the way
Speaker 4: to that. Now, some of the antics he's done along
Speaker 4: the way I'm not been a massive fan of, but
Speaker 4: you can't knock like the hustle and like the creative
Speaker 4: genius behind having all that attention on you at all times, and.
Speaker 3: The antics he does too.
Speaker 1: And I think that's the main specific thing I think
Speaker 1: about a suicide forest in Japan, Logan Logan, but okay,
Speaker 1: go just just based off that. In general, Logan I
Speaker 1: thought did a phenomenal job of apologizing made a mistake.
Speaker 3: Now let's move on, Like let's fucking these hilaryers. You're
Speaker 3: like addressing it like there's some like yeah, but people
Speaker 3: still bring it up. I'm bringing it up right now.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I know, he apologized. I don't think what's happening
Speaker 4: out there right now about the forest the.
Speaker 1: Only one they like they bunched because I don't even
Speaker 1: know which one it was, and then one of them
Speaker 1: did it and they're like, fuck the Paul brothers. Like, dude,
Speaker 1: the Paul Brothers have been absolutely genius about the way
Speaker 1: they've handled themselves.
Speaker 3: They've they've maneuvered this game very well.
Speaker 1: I think we've sucked him off enough. Let's go to
Speaker 1: let's go TOMC a little bit.
Speaker 3: Good.
Speaker 1: What an interesting conversation we had with this guy. Obviously,
Speaker 1: the loss was still big. He didn't care who won
Speaker 1: the who won the big game, the Super Bowl, He
Speaker 1: didn't care who won that. But the most interesting thing
Speaker 1: to me when it was him talking about his dad
Speaker 1: and had the stories his fucking dad. Dude was running
Speaker 1: a fucking sweatshop in the McCaffrey house. He was the
Speaker 1: kids had to go to sleep at seven thirty, No sweets. Oh,
Speaker 1: I was about to tell a story he told us
Speaker 1: not to tell because he knew that Dad would be upset,
Speaker 1: they would get grounded, They would be grounded if they
Speaker 1: were tackled by their jersey.
Speaker 3: It was. It was wild. But honestly, you guys are
Speaker 3: gonna love You look at.
Speaker 1: Christian now and you're like, maybe that's how we should
Speaker 1: all parent.
Speaker 3: Yeah, like they they you know with Eddie McCaffery, right, Eddie.
Speaker 1: Yeah, when he became an adulty probably started going by
Speaker 1: ed Yeah. Yeah, but brought like Broncos receivers done. Figured
Speaker 1: it out, Yeah, figured it out.
Speaker 3: Yes, he was. You can tell.
Speaker 4: The McCaffrey family is super fucking competitive.
Speaker 3: Yeah, super competitive, Like you're not.
Speaker 5: Getting your dinner if you're not, like they're on time,
Speaker 5: like people are eating.
Speaker 3: Yeah, who's eating fastest too?
Speaker 2: It's like, oh man, scary household.
Speaker 3: It scary household.
Speaker 5: He was like, you could tell he like resented that
Speaker 5: behavior when he was a kid, but then like as.
Speaker 3: He became an adult appreciates it.
Speaker 1: That was everything the mold in my fe Yeah, incredible
Speaker 1: foundational blocks.
Speaker 3: But one thing too.
Speaker 1: Christian walked downstairs when we were in the middle of
Speaker 1: another interview that'll come out next week with Shane Gillis.
Speaker 1: And Burt Kreischer and Bert asked Shane who he would
Speaker 1: rather either fuck or get fucked by me, and then
Speaker 1: you were like, hey, can you get Christian? And you
Speaker 1: saw Shane light up like a Christmas tree. Dude. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and McCaffrey walks down, and then we fucking brought him
Speaker 1: in it and the start of this whole interview, I
Speaker 1: think we talk about who he would fuck, and so
Speaker 1: it's an amazing It's an amazing deal. Other than that, brother,

Speaker 2: My shoutow, no free shout out.
Speaker 5: Uh, mister McCaffrey, Christians is not going to like marshall
Speaker 5: out this week, but it's necessary. Everyone's My shout out
Speaker 5: goes to binge watching TV. And I know that that
Speaker 5: is a big no no in the McCaffrey house, but
Speaker 5: in the McPherson household, we thrive on it.
Speaker 2: So yesterday it was with the roommates.
Speaker 5: We had a fun Saturday and nothing really going on Sunday,
Speaker 5: and we popped out in like three or four different
Speaker 5: shows we've all been collectively watching, and we ended up
Speaker 5: being on like a season finale, and at the end
Speaker 5: of the day, like when it's all sudden and.
Speaker 2: Done, I'm walking up to my room and I'm like, damn.
Speaker 5: That was just a good day with the boys. We
Speaker 5: didn't do much, but we did everything we wanted to.
Speaker 5: So shout out no free shout out binge watching TV.
Speaker 4: Though, speaking of TV, Jack, what'd you think episode seven
Speaker 4: of The Last of Us?
Speaker 3: Don't say too much. I'm on episode two still.
Speaker 5: I feel like they were trying to force a narrative
Speaker 5: that wasn't necessarily there between the two girls.
Speaker 3: Yeah, fourteen year olds.
Speaker 5: Yeah, like we could have waited maybe a year or
Speaker 5: two on that one. It seemed a little predictable, like
Speaker 5: what was gonna happen at the end, But at the
Speaker 5: end of it all, I also think it was a
Speaker 5: set up episode that's gonna it was just some context.
Speaker 2: My roommate didn't even realize that was an entire.
Speaker 5: Flashback the entire episode at the end was so he
Speaker 5: was like, dude, like, I'm just confused, and we're like
Speaker 5: what yeah, and we're like, oh, dude, you're just.
Speaker 3: Stupid, Like, oh, you're just dumb, brother.
Speaker 2: But yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 5: It's it wasn't my favorite episode, but I did like
Speaker 5: the backstory on it.
Speaker 2: I guess that's as much I can say.
Speaker 4: But you're one of the you you played the game? Yeah,
Speaker 4: that was a lot of the The reaction when I'm
Speaker 4: kind of talking shit on the episode was like, oh,
Speaker 4: you got to play the video game or something, which
Speaker 4: I understand, like if if this has read that redemption,
Speaker 4: of course I'm enjoying whatever is on the screen in
Speaker 4: front of me. But as far as like good TV,
Speaker 4: they've done a couple of these filler episodes on like
Speaker 4: flashbacks and setups to where it's like, hey, it's your
Speaker 4: first season. You gotta get there. You got to keep
Speaker 4: the audience. Now listen, I'm here to stay. I'm not
Speaker 4: going anywhere. I love the show, but it's like.
Speaker 5: The first episode where I was a little like we
Speaker 5: I felt like there could have been a different way
Speaker 5: to now again.
Speaker 4: Leave a cliffhanger on the last one, now we see
Speaker 4: what happened again. I'm not going to say a whole
Speaker 4: lot like you, they left such a cliffhanger on the
Speaker 4: last one, episode six at the very end, remember I
Speaker 4: texted you very pissed off very upset. Now they addressed
Speaker 4: in the beginning, but it's like, you don't want to
Speaker 4: spend time on that when you've built up so much
Speaker 4: emotion on it from episode six. Yeah, it's like, I
Speaker 4: understand the flashback in the context, but let's reel in
Speaker 4: that fucking thirty five to forty minutes of all that
Speaker 4: context and like maybe ten or fifteen minutes.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I feel like it would.
Speaker 5: Have been like a beautiful way to show what she's
Speaker 5: gone through and like what's right on currently. But yeah,
Speaker 5: it felt like they were kind of like they could
Speaker 5: have gotten out of that mall a lot quicker.
Speaker 3: I'll tell you what, Taylor.
Speaker 4: A couple of our shout out know for shout outs
Speaker 4: making an appearance on the episode Escalators being one of them,
Speaker 4: and they just take so much time on just shit
Speaker 4: that doesn't need to We literally watched we watched the
Speaker 4: scene where they're playing Mortal Kombat.
Speaker 3: We're watching them play it.
Speaker 4: Oh that's not that's not big like on an indicator,
Speaker 4: that's not like a spoiler lit. Yeah, like fuck yeah, mbat,
Speaker 4: I really wanted to see that Mortal Kombat. Man, fucking
Speaker 4: don't Actually, you don't know how to use a joystick
Speaker 4: just because you've never seen one. Move that thing around
Speaker 4: and hit the buttons and don't say there's too many buttons.
Speaker 3: There's three.
Speaker 4: Yeah, don't piss me off.
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, yeah, Like I get you never seen the project.
Speaker 2: Yeah you didn't see my twitter rod.
Speaker 3: Nah, I didn't see it one.
Speaker 4: Oh but no, I felt like it was necessary to
Speaker 4: talk about that just a little bit.
Speaker 3: But hey, catch up, catch up. It'd be good to like,
Speaker 3: I don't want to catch up, you should, I think so,
Speaker 3: because it'd be good to break down the show. Yeah,
Speaker 3: it'd be good to break down the show every week.
Speaker 1: Like I'm always late to shows, dude, Like I just
Speaker 1: kind of wait. People are obsessing of it, over it,
Speaker 1: and I just kind of wait. And then a year
Speaker 1: goes by, I'm like, I'm gonna break it out. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna break out.
Speaker 4: Which is a smart move because then you're not like
Speaker 4: you don't have to sit and wait. You get to
Speaker 4: kind of binge it.
Speaker 3: I do hate waiting.
Speaker 1: Like I when I been binge watched all four seasons
Speaker 1: of Yellowstone, I was like, man, no, the four season.
Speaker 1: I haven't watched the fifth season yet. I remember watching
Speaker 1: episode and thinking to myself. People would probably think that
Speaker 1: episode sucks because I had to wait, but I liked
Speaker 1: it because I can go on to the next one
Speaker 1: and then it would make more sense because then there's
Speaker 1: not so much ebbs and flows of like that episode sucked.
Speaker 1: That episode rock. You're just following a good storyline and
Speaker 1: you're you're finding out where you're going.
Speaker 3: I kind of did that right away.
Speaker 1: Continues in the exception, like I watch the first two
Speaker 1: episodes of Yellowstone, I'm like, I'm just gonna wait fIF
Speaker 1: season to be over. I don't need to be the
Speaker 1: who's who in the zoo of knowing what's going on
Speaker 1: right now in time.
Speaker 3: But that is also the fun part of being up
Speaker 3: to date.
Speaker 4: From a friendship standpoint episode, you know, the community going on.
Speaker 3: With reacting to it.
Speaker 1: By the way, when you guys were talking, I did
Speaker 1: change my my shadow no Free Shadow. Nice when you guys,
Speaker 1: because there's a couple of things you guys talked about.
Speaker 4: Willie my shadow no Free Shadow goes to me. Over
Speaker 4: the weekend, we were at the container Store and I'm
Speaker 4: gonna get a great place. Yeah, great place, dude. The
Speaker 4: container store is fucking awesome.
Speaker 6: By the way, Yeah, it's about organizing the reason I'm
Speaker 6: shouting out myself is because I feel like I did
Speaker 6: a very boy move because you know how it is
Speaker 6: in the Green Hills parking lot with the ma all.
Speaker 4: You can't find parking in that main area where Cava
Speaker 4: Cheesecake factory, all that the container store, all that stuff
Speaker 4: is right there.
Speaker 3: It's a nightmare going around.
Speaker 4: When I was walking out to get my truck to leave,
Speaker 4: I made eye contact with somebody that was looking for spots.
Speaker 3: I literally waved.
Speaker 4: Them over here, like, hey, I'm about to leave, you
Speaker 4: can hold this spot. I waited for them to come around,
Speaker 4: and then I get in my truck and I back
Speaker 4: out and I give them the spot.
Speaker 3: Damn.
Speaker 4: That's kind of the it's more of the moment. But
Speaker 4: you know, I enjoyed the shouting.
Speaker 2: On myself too, I guarantee, yeah, dude.
Speaker 4: Because again you're like, it's like musical chairs in there, bro,
Speaker 4: and then you just get you know, you get really
Speaker 4: quick tempered about it. You're yelling at some old lady.
Speaker 1: But that's my shotow, no free shutout would love to
Speaker 1: hear yours, my shadow, no free shodow. That's a phenomenal
Speaker 1: shot out. No Free Shadow. By the way, that was
Speaker 1: really good. That was really good. My shadow No Free
Speaker 1: Shadow came to me when you guys were speaking about
Speaker 1: talking about the Last of Us, and you brought up
Speaker 1: something that just made my heart hurt a little bit,
Speaker 1: and that was reda redemption. So my shout out, no
Speaker 1: Free Shadow goes to Arthur Morgan, just the man who's
Speaker 1: literally bro I've cried. I cried after that game. I
Speaker 1: saw like a little baby. I've cried multiple times since
Speaker 1: I've played that game, as early as a week and
Speaker 1: a half agoing I'm.
Speaker 3: Still mourning, and it's such a weird thing to mourn.
Speaker 1: Not because it's a video game, because I'm I'm still
Speaker 1: cool with that. It's the fact that I can go
Speaker 1: back and see him whenever I want. But I'm scared
Speaker 1: to I don't know if I can really go through
Speaker 1: that emotional turmoil again even playing RD one.
Speaker 3: Right now, I'm not as invested in John Marston, but
Speaker 3: I do see.
Speaker 1: That, like all this you're doing right now, John has
Speaker 1: to do because Arthur Morgan gave you that opportunity, gave
Speaker 1: you and your family that John Marston Yeah, and I'm
Speaker 1: just like, I still feel paid in some nights when
Speaker 1: I when I put the kids down and I have
Speaker 1: a couple hours of myself before I go to sleep,
Speaker 1: I think maybe I should play, but and my heart
Speaker 1: hurts too bad and I just can't. So I pick
Speaker 1: up the Oculus. I play a little Saints and Centers
Speaker 1: because I'm not as emotionally attached. It's a fun little game.
Speaker 1: But Shadow Arthur Morgan, dude, the greatest man I ever
Speaker 1: knew in my entire life.
Speaker 3: Bye didn't know are? Oh I know him? No? Oh,
Speaker 3: I know the greatest man you've ever known?
Speaker 4: Me?
Speaker 1: YouTube Steve Dive YouTube is about how Arthur Morgan when
Speaker 1: he was a kid, how he met Dutch and stuff
Speaker 1: like that. Like they should be making the ship up,
Speaker 1: and I'm like, I just feel like I've learned more
Speaker 1: about my best friend. Yeah, because it is based on
Speaker 1: a true story, I think everything is. That's what you
Speaker 1: were saying before, Yop.

Speaker 3: Huge, huge, I've seen the Austin stand up like fifteen times. Dude.
Speaker 3: It is so fucking funny, and it gets funnier the
Speaker 3: more you watch it, keep catching onto something you didn't
Speaker 3: know he is.
Speaker 1: It's the awkward. It's the awkward, like shoulder struck the best,
Speaker 1: some tough, hard nose, run it down your throat.
Speaker 3: And a clouded dust.
Speaker 1: Yeah, dude, he's so funny. He played football. Huh he
Speaker 1: played football, did he really?
Speaker 3: Yeah? At some like Naval academy, right.
Speaker 1: Point point quick he did it. Yeah, like three weeks
Speaker 1: he was like another one. I can't, I can't do
Speaker 1: this anymore, dude. Yeah, yeah, yeah, dude, he is.
Speaker 3: He's fucking awesome. It's always great. It's always great having
Speaker 3: them on, man.
Speaker 4: But thanks for coming on though, bro, Like, I feel
Speaker 4: like we've been connected for a little bit because like
Speaker 4: we've seen you rock the merch, we've started following each other.
Speaker 4: I'm just thinking, Yo, the fucking the boy. Yeah great, hope, Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 4: he's following like that's fucking sick.
Speaker 3: Yeah. How'd you get onto the how'd you get on
Speaker 3: the bus? And I'm a fan of the pod for
Speaker 3: a lot of reasons. Some of the guys in the
Speaker 3: locker room. You guys haven't talked about pod in the
Speaker 3: locker room, but uh no, but uh I'm a fan
Speaker 3: of the pod for a lot of reasons. I think
Speaker 3: there's not a lot of you know, when people think
Speaker 3: of NFL players, it's always you know, this stardom individual
Speaker 3: you know, it gets a lot of individual attention, not
Speaker 3: kind of understanding the dynam the locker room. And you
Speaker 3: have two guys who are on different spectrums and different
Speaker 3: journeys of a football team who came together in a pod,
Speaker 3: and a lot of your guys's podcasts are just it's
Speaker 3: the locker room. And so for me, it's like, oh
Speaker 3: my god, that's like I'm sitting in the car in
Speaker 3: the off season throwing on a pod as I'm in
Speaker 3: the locker room. Locker room with the boys. Feel that
Speaker 3: and so I feel like a lot of other people
Speaker 3: they they're you know, I don't know if they know that,
Speaker 3: but subconsciously they're like, damn, that's probably what goes on
Speaker 3: in the locker room. Yeah, I'm a fan. I really
Speaker 3: am a fan. I like the pod a lot. Dude.
Speaker 1: I'm so happy you said that, because that's literally, like
Speaker 1: our whole goal is like everyone who you when you're
Speaker 1: playing in the league, Like when you first get in
Speaker 1: the lead, there's those year ten guys and they like
Speaker 1: leave and they come back and you always ask them like, hey,
Speaker 1: what do you miss And everybody says, there's a couple
Speaker 1: of answers, but everyone always says they missed the boys,
Speaker 1: They missed the locker room, and like, as you get older,
Speaker 1: you kind of fear that. So when Will and I
Speaker 1: started this like that, we wanted that to be the vibe.
Speaker 1: We wanted to be the vibe where people are sitting down,
Speaker 1: we're asking the same dumb questions Kobe or Lebron, Michael,
Speaker 1: we're asking first time he jerked off, like just crazy like.
Speaker 3: Conversations about the Lebron question. Yeah, but you know that's
Speaker 3: always a question. It's always a question.
Speaker 1: The locker was the first thing I came to my
Speaker 1: It's a popular question. I don't think we have talked
Speaker 1: about that, but it is, like, it's fucking awesome, dude,
Speaker 1: and it's great to know that, like the forty nine
Speaker 1: as they roll with.
Speaker 3: The boys, it's the best. It was a good locker room.
Speaker 3: Was kittle kind of steam had that? Yeah? I would
Speaker 3: say so you know, for for me personally, I came
Speaker 3: in in the middle of the year not knowing what
Speaker 3: was going on. You know, I didn't know I knew people,
Speaker 3: but didn't know people, which was a weird experience. But
Speaker 3: you can just tell. I think there was twenty two
Speaker 3: guys from the Super Bowl team a few years ago
Speaker 3: who are still on the team. So they they'd set
Speaker 3: a culture and a standard that had been there for
Speaker 3: a while, and you know, I was just pumped up
Speaker 3: to join them.
Speaker 4: What was it like getting traded? It was a you're
Speaker 4: you're the friend, You're like the face of the Panthers, like.
Speaker 1: The fun when we would play you guys, they'd be like,
Speaker 1: if you stop this guy, we have a chance to win.
Speaker 3: He's going to touch the ball thirty times a game.
Speaker 4: First overall draft pick from me Fantasy Football, thank you
Speaker 4: for Holden's true I was like, Okay, he's had a
Speaker 4: couple of.
Speaker 3: Injury bugs last couple of years. This is he's gonna
Speaker 3: get it right this year. Appreciate it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, take us through that trade, bro because that's I mean,
Speaker 4: that was a massive headline.
Speaker 3: It was it was an you know, you hear about it,
Speaker 3: but you never I don't know. For me, I never
Speaker 3: thought i'd get traded. I thought I was a Panther forever.
Speaker 3: I'm like, I bought a house there, this is home.
Speaker 3: And I'd heard the rumors in the offseason, so I,
Speaker 3: you know, obviously, I called the GM. I'm like, hey, man,
Speaker 3: just you know, I just need to hear it from you,
Speaker 3: any any truth. And he's he was super honest. He's like, look,
Speaker 3: absolutely not. We don't want to do this, you know,
Speaker 3: but we'll listen to everything. And that's that's fair. I'm like,
Speaker 3: sounds good. Just let me know. But I went into
Speaker 3: the season, man, I'm like, look, I'm all in. It
Speaker 3: is what it is. I I legitimately forgot about that,
Speaker 3: thinking I'm on the team I play. And I think
Speaker 3: it was four or five games and the rumors had
Speaker 3: continued to gone and coach Ruhle got fired. We had
Speaker 3: lost a few games in a row, and I figured like,
Speaker 3: if this was going to happen, this is how it happens,
Speaker 3: and you're anticipated hit a little. But I didn't, maybe subconsciously,
Speaker 3: but I never I never addressed it, you know, openly,
Speaker 3: and so uh we played La. We played the Rams.
Speaker 3: It was a first game with coach Wilkes, and we lost.
Speaker 3: I had a pretty good game, though, and I just
Speaker 3: remember my agent saying it could happen this week, but
Speaker 3: I don't think so. And so early in the week
Speaker 3: it was, you know, I don't think this is happening.
Speaker 3: And then the week kept going and going and there
Speaker 3: was more of a chance, and I was just like, look,
Speaker 3: if it's going to happen, make a house preparing for Tampa.
Speaker 3: So for you know, anyone who doesn't know what it's
Speaker 3: like to get traded in the middle of a week.
Speaker 3: You know, I'm in practice in meetings Wednesday, treatment practice
Speaker 3: and meetings Thursday, treatment eleven thirty pm. I get a
Speaker 3: call trading you to the Niners. YadA YadA, seven am.
Speaker 3: Flight didn't say by to one person. Practice with the
Speaker 3: Niners Friday. Try to scramble together, you know, a few
Speaker 3: plays in a little package. Go play the Chiefs on
Speaker 3: Sunday for the Niners, and then from there you just roll.
Speaker 1: So you when you call the GM, you obviously there's
Speaker 1: a bit of an anxiety. And then when you after
Speaker 1: you play the Rams, your agents like, hey, probably won't happen,
Speaker 1: but it could happen this week. How does that like
Speaker 1: affect you during the season leading up to that point,
Speaker 1: because obviously everyone's always all in, like the guys who
Speaker 1: really care about football, they're gonna be all in for
Speaker 1: their team, but there's gonna be some sort of level
Speaker 1: of you got to feel some sort of way knowing
Speaker 1: there's a possibility of this team, whether you feel like
Speaker 1: they're giving up.
Speaker 3: On you or they want to move on for whatever reason.
Speaker 1: Like, what was your thought process like up until getting traded.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean it's I think I legitimately blocked it
Speaker 3: out for the first four weeks and then, like like
Speaker 3: you said, like that week where it was like, hey,
Speaker 3: this could happen. I mean it's all I thought about.
Speaker 3: You know, It's like it was completely in the back
Speaker 3: of my head, like consuming the unknown. Yeah, it consumes you,
Speaker 3: but you have to do your best. Were I was,
Speaker 3: you know, prepping for Tampa. So I just started, you know,
Speaker 3: doing all that and just getting ready to go, and
Speaker 3: I figured, hey, don't change a thing, because regardless you're
Speaker 3: going to be on a team, whether it's you know,
Speaker 3: you get traded Tuesday or whether you get traded Thursday,
Speaker 3: whatever it is. I just didn't want to prolong it.
Speaker 3: I wanted to play in every game this year. That
Speaker 3: was a you know, big deal to me to be
Speaker 3: able to suit up and play in every game, and
Speaker 3: so I just wanted it to happen sooner than later.
Speaker 3: But uh no, it definitely consumes you. I mean, it's
Speaker 3: in the back of your head. Even in practice. I'm like, dude,
Speaker 3: just don't do anything stupid, like who knows what's going
Speaker 3: to happen. Like I was warming up for like an
Speaker 3: hour just to make sure I'm you know, checking the box.
Speaker 3: So yeah, it definitely consumes you a little.
Speaker 4: Then you I was gonna say, as your initial reaction
Speaker 4: when you got traded, is it pissed off?
Speaker 3: It's so weird. Weird. It's a weird deal because there's
Speaker 3: so many emotions, and the first emotions probably anger, like man,
Speaker 3: you guys don't want me anymore. Like that's really what
Speaker 3: it is. You know, you can call it what it is. Well,
Speaker 3: they got a lot for you. It's like, na, like
Speaker 3: you're you think you're better off without me, that's what
Speaker 3: it is. And uh so you get that. So it's
Speaker 3: you know, you're pissed off, but then you're excited, but
Speaker 3: then you're you know, you got two days. So I
Speaker 3: just think there's so many emotions that get flooded at
Speaker 3: you at once that you're not really able to address
Speaker 3: because they give you the playbook as soon as you
Speaker 3: get there, and you're like, shit, man, that's what that's
Speaker 3: you know, I gotta get going, so you can't even
Speaker 3: address it. And I don't even know if I've completely
Speaker 3: decompressed yet with the whole thing. But it's like a
Speaker 3: big breakup and you don't get any chance after. Yeah,
Speaker 3: if they break up into a next relationship.
Speaker 1: Yeah, immediately, not even like the courting process of the
Speaker 1: other relationship.
Speaker 3: I'm healthy to leave this one. I go this one,
Speaker 3: your ex pix, your next chick, Yeah, what the hell is?
Speaker 1: Hey, we're done. But she's gonna be great to me.
Speaker 1: Ye's gonna be fantastic.
Speaker 3: I hope she's good. And she was.
Speaker 1: It was I had to be a little bit of
Speaker 1: like Carolina was going down the dumbs pretty fast.
Speaker 3: And then you get traded to the forty nine ers
Speaker 3: are like, hey.
Speaker 1: You're pisses first, and you're like, I'm going to a
Speaker 1: good ball club here in.
Speaker 3: A family that obviously is you know you know what though,
Speaker 3: And I've this is dead honest truth. I legitimately thought
Speaker 3: we could still win because we had a really hard
Speaker 3: first part of the schedule, and so there was a
Speaker 3: few games in there where we're like a god, like,
Speaker 3: you hope you win these games, and you you want
Speaker 3: to win these games. But you got a new quarterback,
Speaker 3: you got a new offense. There's gonna it's gonna come
Speaker 3: with some growing pains. Our coordinator just got there, our
Speaker 3: quarterback got there in training camp. Like I, I really
Speaker 3: believed we could still win. So in the back of
Speaker 3: my head, I'm like, you know, we could be one
Speaker 3: of those Miami teams who wins nine straight later in
Speaker 3: the year. A couple of years ago, I in my
Speaker 3: head believed that, and and they ended up doing, you know,
Speaker 3: kind of making a little bit of the man. I mean,
Speaker 3: they got the mix for sure. So I I, you know,
Speaker 3: you any way you could get into the playoffs doesn't
Speaker 3: really matter as long as you get in. And so
Speaker 3: I thought we could. And so that that didn't help.
Speaker 3: I wasn't like, oh the hell, yeah, I'm out like that.
Speaker 3: That that wasn't my mentality after got traded. I loved
Speaker 3: Charlotte Man, and I was a captain on that team.
Speaker 3: I love those guys, and uh so, you know, it
Speaker 3: came with a lot of mixed emotions.
Speaker 1: So Thursday night, eleven thirty at night, you get traded,
Speaker 1: seven am, you're on a flight, and then you have
Speaker 1: to play a game in forty eight hours essentially, like
Speaker 1: what was when you talked to Shanahan and the boys
Speaker 1: like we like, hey, we need these ten plays out
Speaker 1: of you during the game, because it was it was
Speaker 1: a big surprise to everybody when you'd stepped on the
Speaker 1: field that that Sunday.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I at first I didn't know if I was
Speaker 3: gonna pla. I don't think they knew if I was
Speaker 3: gonna play. And then I think I got there and
Speaker 3: and if you know how Shanahan's a wizard man, he
Speaker 3: I think he started to put together a little bit
Speaker 3: of a red zone package and maybe something like ten
Speaker 3: plays here where he's like, you know, maybe we can
Speaker 3: use him in a couple different ways and teach him
Speaker 3: some base runs, get them some touches, and uh so
Speaker 3: I had I was ready for ten to twelve plays.
Speaker 3: I ended up playing in like twenty, and poor Jimmy
Speaker 3: like he called like eight plays. I've never heard. I know,
Speaker 3: I couldn't tell you what one thing meant in the play,
Speaker 3: like Jimmy, I'm sorry, but you got to tell me
Speaker 3: what to do. Jimmy, you know obviously told me what
Speaker 3: to do. But yeah, it was it was a different
Speaker 3: game week experience. I could say that, how was your
Speaker 3: how was your transition going to San fran It was great, man,
Speaker 3: it was great. I mean that's as seamless of a
Speaker 3: transition as I could have imagined. From the coaches helping
Speaker 3: me out learning the plays quick to shit. Brock Purty
Speaker 3: was walking through with me on the turf field, you know,
Speaker 3: after hours, just to try to you know, get some
Speaker 3: reps in so I could hear the plays. Kittle and
Speaker 3: all the leaders on the team. I mean, you're playing
Speaker 3: with guys that are elite at what they do all
Speaker 3: over the locker room. So from them welcome me in. Man,
Speaker 3: they felt like family right away. I was so thankful,
Speaker 3: you know, because you never know how that's going to go.
Speaker 3: It could be some resentment or something like hell was
Speaker 3: a new guy, and uh no, they welcome in with
Speaker 3: open arms. Everyone was so great and clicked those boys
Speaker 3: right away.
Speaker 1: Yeah, when you first got to San Frandi, Like who
Speaker 1: did you gravitate towards early like or who I guess
Speaker 1: who opened the doors to like a little bit of
Speaker 1: a friendship early like.
Speaker 3: Boys. Kittle was amazing, man. He he called me when
Speaker 3: I got traded the GM the Panthers called me. He
Speaker 3: told me getting traded. John Lynch called me, and then
Speaker 3: Kittle called me. Did you know before I'd known Kittle,
Speaker 3: I you know, hung out of them for a while,
Speaker 3: you know, seeing him at different events here and there.
Speaker 3: So he was like the third call, and man, that
Speaker 3: meant a lot to me. Obviously he's a leader on
Speaker 3: that team. And then sharing the running back room with
Speaker 3: Kyle Juice check was great, and that whole running back
Speaker 3: room was awesome. Man, it's a good room. And Elijah
Speaker 3: Mitchell and just being able to learn from him and
Speaker 3: just no egos. No, you know, it was a it
Speaker 3: was a seamless transition. But you know, I saw like
Speaker 3: Trent Williams in the locker rooms like monster I saw
Speaker 3: man and Fred Warner is a beast, you know, Debo,
Speaker 3: you all those guys, So they are sad, they're so close, man,
Speaker 3: like you can tell they've been through some shit together. Yeah,
Speaker 3: you know, what I mean. So when I stepped in there,
Speaker 3: I'm like, look, I just just do your job. You
Speaker 3: don't got to do anything else, but just do your job.
Speaker 4: Knowing that the Panthers were your first, was your first organization,
Speaker 4: going to the San Francisco and see how that organization
Speaker 4: was ran, was it eye opening between the two different organizations,
Speaker 4: Like I know, for me when I went from Washington
Speaker 4: to Tennessee, you saw right away like how differently the
Speaker 4: Titans would run.
Speaker 3: Stuff compared to compared to Washington.
Speaker 4: And then say when I went to the Raiders and
Speaker 4: everything else, was it similar at all going from Carolina
Speaker 4: to San Francisco.
Speaker 3: Uh? No, it was pretty different in a lot of ways,
Speaker 3: not even good or bad. But you just you get
Speaker 3: in a routine in one team, or do your practice
Speaker 3: schedule with when you get treatment, with when they practice,
Speaker 3: when they lift, et cetera. So all that was different.
Speaker 3: So I had to kind of adjust mid season all
Speaker 3: of that stuff. So as far as the scheduling went,
Speaker 3: it was much different. Uh. The playbook obviously was much different,
Speaker 3: completely new terminology and uh but I think you know
Speaker 3: for me, you I adapted pretty quick. And the other
Speaker 3: good thing was we played Kansas City, where I chalk
Speaker 3: it up to you know, scratch, like you played, but
Speaker 3: just now you can get your bearings for a week.
Speaker 3: And then we played LA the next week and then
Speaker 3: we had to buy. So I played in really one
Speaker 3: and a half games and then we had a buy
Speaker 3: where I could really get used to everything and how
Speaker 3: things were ran. But even like your treatment people, you
Speaker 3: know what I mean, like the guys that you see
Speaker 3: that because you.
Speaker 1: Got your guy, Like there's that one guy in the
Speaker 1: building was like, this is my dude I'm working with.
Speaker 3: So I'm like, you know all that you're scrambling to
Speaker 3: figure that stuff out. And yeah, there's a there's a
Speaker 3: lot of differences here and there, but I'd say that
Speaker 3: was probably the biggest effect. It's just trying to figure
Speaker 3: out the logistics of your schedule throughout the week. Yeah.
Speaker 4: How close are you with the uh like getting cause
Speaker 4: your family's with the your the Shanahan family and your family,
Speaker 4: you guys.
Speaker 3: Are like tight, right? Yes?
Speaker 4: Is that are you are you going there feeling kind
Speaker 4: of like that interpersonal relationship with coach Shanahan or is
Speaker 4: it kind of like our families are type of you know, it's.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's still different for us. I think when you
Speaker 3: get traded, it's like you really understand the family, friend
Speaker 3: or whatever, how much of a business it is. And
Speaker 3: you also understand that these guys just traded a lot
Speaker 3: for you. So you know, there's there's no like, hey,
Speaker 3: what's up, man, good, It's like all right, dude, like
Speaker 3: I it's time, like I gotta I gotta prove you right.
Speaker 3: And we got a role because you know, I mean,
Speaker 3: my my dad played for played for Mike Shanahan for
Speaker 3: a long time, and they're really close, you know, really close,
Speaker 3: and Kyle grew up in that locker room. Kyle grew
Speaker 3: up one of those games, the Niners games when Mike
Speaker 3: was there and the Broncos games. I'd only met Kyle
Speaker 3: after a game when we when we played them, though
Speaker 3: I didn't I wasn't like, you know, I talked to
Speaker 3: Kyle all the time. That wasn't the case at all.
Speaker 3: And I think, you know, we have a lot of
Speaker 3: similarities in a lot of ways, in the sense that
Speaker 3: you know, your your dad's kind of grew up. Know,
Speaker 3: my dad had three Super Bowl rings and growing up
Speaker 3: in Denver, you know, he was a big deal. And
Speaker 3: you know, I kind of always you know, I ended
Speaker 3: up making a name for myself, but just growing up,
Speaker 3: you're in his shadow. And I thought it was the
Speaker 3: best thing ever. I mean, me and my pops are
Speaker 3: like that, and it was it was amazing. But you know,
Speaker 3: I think Kyle probably feels out a little bit too,
Speaker 3: And so it's all business though. And I love Kyle
Speaker 3: and I and we you know, we got a good relationship.
Speaker 3: But I want to win so bad man, and I
Speaker 3: know he does too, So it's it's definitely to the
Speaker 3: script and business. You guys are so close this year.
Speaker 1: Dude, When when you got Jimmy g telling you what
Speaker 1: to do in the field and then a few weeks
Speaker 1: later he's out. Like what was the vibe in the
Speaker 1: locker room? Because it seems like it was truly a
Speaker 1: next man up mentality, That's what it seemed like from
Speaker 1: the outside looking in. But do you have a guy
Speaker 1: who's mister irrelevant, Like you really have no idea what
Speaker 1: he's gonna play on the field. You had no chance
Speaker 1: to see him in camp or really in preseason games
Speaker 1: or anything. So like what was your thought process and
Speaker 1: like what was the vibe of the boys, Like the
Speaker 1: next day.
Speaker 3: And there was a lot of mixed emotions, uh, and
Speaker 3: a lot of unknowns. But like I said, I mean
Speaker 3: that you got the number one defense and you have
Speaker 3: a lot of weapons, and so I don't I don't.
Speaker 3: I really don't believe anyone ever blinked. I think it was, hey,
Speaker 3: we're gonna have to step up, like there's you know,
Speaker 3: And I don't know what that means because I never
Speaker 3: understood that because it's like, well, what were you doing before,
Speaker 3: like you know not but like you know what I mean,
Speaker 3: just kind of you know, lock in, no, no bullshit,
Speaker 3: nothing and uh. But I didn't feel like anybody blinked.
Speaker 3: And I and to hear the defense talk about Brock
Speaker 3: because those are the guys going against him in scout
Speaker 3: team and during training camp they were huge fans. They're like,
Speaker 3: oh no, he can ball, and so we're like, all right,
Speaker 3: let's let's see what happens. And he went in the
Speaker 3: middle of the Miami Gaming one and then you know,
Speaker 3: it's kind of history from there. But no, it was
Speaker 3: impressive what he did. I'll be honest with you, how
Speaker 3: do you really impress if to wash them from a
Speaker 3: close spectrum.
Speaker 1: How do you feel sitting in this room right now
Speaker 1: and not getting ready for the Super Bowl.
Speaker 3: No, you were so close. It hurts, man, It hurts.
Speaker 3: It's uh yeah, it hurts. Yeah, it hurts man. But
Speaker 3: is your dad like the guy from what was the
Speaker 3: movie with Bobe Miles right and night lights?
Speaker 1: So he's like, you see that he got one of those,
Speaker 1: got one of those, gets you one of those?
Speaker 3: Like that is your dad? Kind of put in your
Speaker 3: face a little bit. He's letting a ride. I've never
Speaker 3: seen my dad's rings. He's the couldn't be you got
Speaker 3: to drive home drug after a game?
Speaker 1: Yeahs out the window, you're stuffing through.
Speaker 3: The gray nod fucking kicks out the window.
Speaker 1: Christians all sat on the field, his dad walks up,
Speaker 1: puts it on his finger.
Speaker 3: By the way, they asked me the other day, like,
Speaker 3: what's one of the best movie scenes of all time?
Speaker 3: That was like in my top three when he's on
Speaker 3: his knees when he hugs his dad at the end
Speaker 3: there when other I mean emotional right now, that is tough.
Speaker 3: Was the lamp scene? Throws the lamp on the ground,
Speaker 3: I dropped it. He's like, can't hold the lamp, can't
Speaker 3: hold on the football. I can hold on the football.
Speaker 3: Get the hell out of here. I got a funny
Speaker 3: story about that. Actually, dug tasers are can you old?
Speaker 3: How about now? Can you all do it now?
Speaker 1: Oh my god, that poor girl just sitting there watching
Speaker 1: it all go down to Tim mc.
Speaker 3: Graw's like half naked, like, well, I think your name's
Speaker 3: like Maurice Marie. You've grown up relaxed.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: So so Tim McGrath's daughter went to Stanford, so we
Speaker 3: got to know the McGrath's a little bit. Me and
Speaker 3: my friend group. She's an awesome girl, and uh, we
Speaker 3: had dinner. A family friend of ours know them pretty well.
Speaker 3: So he invited us over for dinner when we were
Speaker 3: at Stanford. Not Tim our family friend, but the McGrath's
Speaker 3: him and Faith Hill we're going and so we're like
Speaker 3: all right, cool, well we'll head over, and the whole
Speaker 3: way on the car right, they're like, dude, just don't
Speaker 3: fucking say any Friday night lights lines like say like
Speaker 3: deeper professional whatever. Within five minutes, someone drops a fork
Speaker 3: and my idiot buddy like like it's like, don't punch
Speaker 3: The president goes, can't hold on to the fork, can't
Speaker 3: hold on dude. He was like no, no, and we
Speaker 3: all just started and he started laughing too, which was good,
Speaker 3: but oh my god, it was anything to it. He laughed.
Speaker 3: He just laughed, didn't say anything.
Speaker 1: And Jim McGraw is one of those dudes you've seen
Speaker 1: you're like, fuck, that's really Tim McGrath as he ripped out.
Speaker 3: Dude.
Speaker 1: I saw him at UH when I tore my seal
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty and they were playing The Ravens and
Speaker 1: the Sweet next to me.
Speaker 3: He was there and someone like kind of tapped them loss.
Speaker 1: I kind of get like one of those and he like, look,
Speaker 1: gave me the head and I was like, we're fucking tight, dude,
Speaker 1: We're boys.
Speaker 3: Brother.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but dude, we were at Losers in Nashville one
Speaker 1: time and the owner of Loser's name is Steve Ford.
Speaker 3: He comes up.
Speaker 1: He goes, hey, you all want the back, that's fine,
Speaker 1: but Bob's coming. I'm like, who's Bob. He's like kid Rock,
Speaker 1: kid Rocks on his way. So my first thing is
Speaker 1: where's Will. I go over to way like a will
Speaker 1: Kid Rock's coming. Don't say any Joe.
Speaker 3: Dirt, that's summer too massive, kid Rock.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm like, don't say any Joe dirt ship, don't
Speaker 1: start saying ball at the bar, any of this stuff.
Speaker 1: Kid Rock comes in.
Speaker 3: We're hanging out.
Speaker 1: We're literally playing beer pong, and we're like talking for
Speaker 1: a little bit. It's me Will and Kid Rock and
Speaker 1: we we're talking and there's like a bit of an
Speaker 1: awkward silence and we'll just go I can't stop thinking
Speaker 1: about Joe dirtlines right now.
Speaker 3: Oh my god, brother, it's tough when you're around those
Speaker 3: type of cats. Dude, it's tough. You kind of want
Speaker 3: to be like, I know you. Yeah, you don't really
Speaker 3: know him scenes. Bro, Yeah, it's exactly. It's like not man, no, No,
Speaker 3: you're just you're thinking of his character acting, so I
Speaker 3: would actually.
Speaker 4: Think is like an asshole who I wouldn't like before
Speaker 4: meeting him. Is a Jeoffrey from Game of Thrones.
Speaker 1: I think I really have an issue with I gotta
Speaker 1: watch that show. Yeah, the worst person step away from acting.
Speaker 1: That's what I heard.
Speaker 3: He quit acting.
Speaker 1: What a great actors got to be it.
Speaker 3: Shall we talk about the NFC Championship. We don't have to.
Speaker 3: I think we got it. Don't worry about it. I
Speaker 3: think we got to touch on it. Don't worry about it, dude.
Speaker 1: We got a touch. We got to touch on it. Figure,
Speaker 1: did Brock perty fake that injury? I'm just kidding.
Speaker 3: I mean it was pretty tough. He he tore his UCL.
Speaker 3: I mean, he legitimately couldn't throw, and our only hope
Speaker 3: for you know, we still had hope. Josh came in
Speaker 3: and we we tie it up, We're ready to roll.
Speaker 3: And then when Josh went down, it's like, you know,
Speaker 3: it's panic mode, but you never know. Defense picked six
Speaker 3: special teams touchdown, you know what's gonna happen. But I
Speaker 3: don't know if they knew how hurt Brock was, so
Speaker 3: just having Brock out there, there was still the threat
Speaker 3: of like, oh maybe maybe they shot him up and
Speaker 3: he's good to go, like who knows, right, And he
Speaker 3: threw a couple of screen passes, but I mean that's
Speaker 3: a serious injury. He's just serious injury for him to
Speaker 3: come back in the game and you know, try to
Speaker 3: at least throw dog Yeah, no, uh no, he didn't
Speaker 3: fake it.
Speaker 1: Because I didn't get to see the game, but you
Speaker 1: were saying they were just like y'all were just running
Speaker 1: the ball.
Speaker 4: After at least like yeah, they might not know what's
Speaker 4: going on, but after a few plays, you're gonna realize, like,
Speaker 4: let's just stack the box until they do throw and
Speaker 4: show that they can try and go up top. So
Speaker 4: after that, like as you guys are doing running plaffter
Speaker 4: running platter, running patter, running plafter fucking running play going
Speaker 4: into the fourth quarter, and then it's not like nobody's
Speaker 4: like the clock's not stopping.
Speaker 3: You guys are just running the football.
Speaker 4: I'm sitting there like, will at least try to fucking
Speaker 4: at least try to throw the fall like you throw
Speaker 4: it into the fucking stands.
Speaker 3: I'm like, hell yeah, let it fucking rip. Bro. That
Speaker 3: was one of the worst I wish Why continue to
Speaker 3: just run the ball? Is there a sense of frustration
Speaker 3: like like him and Deebo and drawing up on the sidle, like.
Speaker 4: Hey, hey, George, I'm about to just say, look at me,
Speaker 4: I'm gonna throw this ball to you.
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, in theory, like that's that sounds really good.
Speaker 3: I just I just feel like I couldn't call play,
Speaker 3: Like I know the running back position and in some
Speaker 3: Z plays, but like calling a play and knowing what
Speaker 3: people are you could draw it up all you want.
Speaker 3: We drew up that that double reverse, and you know,
Speaker 3: it was the one time I think they go to
Speaker 3: shell now and then I, you know, Kittle's double covered
Speaker 3: and he's our only guy, and so I just I
Speaker 3: threw it to absolutely nobody. But I love that you
Speaker 3: just let it rip it throwing the football. Yeah, I
Speaker 3: almost got grounding, which would have been like, oh, yeah,
Speaker 3: never mind, we're not throwing the football, but but no,
Speaker 3: it's uh, I think at that point, man, you're you're
Speaker 3: hoping for. You know, we did a couple of double
Speaker 3: reverses and we were still running the ball efficiently. It's
Speaker 3: not like we were zero yards. And I don't know,
Speaker 3: I wish I'm not a coach. I I don't know
Speaker 3: what I would have done. I don't think I've ever
Speaker 3: seen that. The only time I've ever seen no quarterbacks
Speaker 3: be able to play was the Broncos COVID deal Peace
Speaker 3: squad receiver they gotta be by like forty five. Yeah,
Speaker 3: that was a tough That was a tough though. Let
Speaker 3: alone and you know, not having a quarterback for two
Speaker 3: and a half in the NFC Championship. But I'm you know,
Speaker 3: and they they're the ones that hurt them. So it's
Speaker 3: not like, you know, you can't say it's not fair.
Speaker 3: You know, they play good ball, it's a good team,
Speaker 3: but yeah, what a tough fucking spot to be in.
Speaker 3: And I get it.
Speaker 4: It's like in theory that sounds nice, and it's like,
Speaker 4: I know, like I'm saying, then kind of you're trying
Speaker 4: to get you to speak on something where it's like,
Speaker 4: I mean, I'm not you're not a coach, you're not
Speaker 4: doing all that stuff.
Speaker 3: You're not trying to draw it up.
Speaker 4: But I'm just thinking NFC Championship, there's truly nothing to
Speaker 4: fucking lose at what at all whatsoever. So it's like
Speaker 4: you're just out there, Hey, I'm gonna fucking go five
Speaker 4: yards and go out just to simplify for somebody trying
Speaker 4: to throw the rock like Kyle be A be a
Speaker 4: quarterback so Christian could maybe still run the football. But
Speaker 4: that's what I'm still there thinking. I'm like, man, at
Speaker 4: least at least show that you might just throw the
Speaker 4: ball at some point. That's what I was saying. You know,
Speaker 4: I'm pissed off. Yell the TV.
Speaker 3: I bet on you guys. I'm fucking I'm pissed off.
Speaker 1: If there was gonna be a quarterback, who do you
Speaker 1: think it would be have to step in man and
Speaker 1: taking away the fact that it's the NFC Championship, that'd
Speaker 1: be cool.
Speaker 3: Like if you're in the middle of it. In the
Speaker 3: back of my mind, I won't lie. I'm like, look, dude,
Speaker 3: if I get the ball, I'm ripping it, like yeah, yeah, brother,
Speaker 3: we call like some you know whatever the top off
Speaker 3: we shouldn't have done.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but if it's in the middle of the season,
Speaker 4: you you do, like you run the ball, you get
Speaker 4: out of the game, and it's like, well, fuck, we didn't
Speaker 4: have a quarterback.
Speaker 3: But it's like the game before the Super Bowl.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but you guys are thinking about the negative, Like
Speaker 1: imagine if you were play quarterback and was throwing dimes
Speaker 1: all of a sudden.
Speaker 3: Yeah or yeah, I don't know. All that quarterback stuff's tough,
Speaker 3: Like forget throwing the ball, like calling the play in
Speaker 3: the huddle, like they're still giving me ship because I
Speaker 3: called one play on the wristband. It was a double
Speaker 3: reverse pass and like the whole game, it was so
Speaker 3: loud and so the quarterbacks in there just screaming like
Speaker 3: we had to have a guy taking knee in the
Speaker 3: middle so we could shorten up the circle just sweetly, bro.
Speaker 3: And uh and so I'm like, damn, I gotta yell
Speaker 3: this play. Call I meanwhile the play calls, it's that long,
Speaker 3: and uh, I'm screaming the play and George's like, dude,
Speaker 3: like it was the one time it was quiet, So
Speaker 3: like the whole defense is like that. We can hear you.
Speaker 3: Like I'm like, oh shit, so quiet my voice down
Speaker 3: for a little bit. But now calling the play in
Speaker 3: the huddle is more difficult than.
Speaker 1: People's make What about turbo package? Why not go into
Speaker 1: your you guys have like some on the ball stuff
Speaker 1: where you have like one one word and that's what
Speaker 1: you're gonna call and that's it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we yeah, we have that. We but I don't know.
Speaker 3: I don't know the quarterback corbo package. Juice might but
Speaker 3: there you go put juice in. There's so many like
Speaker 3: there's so many what ifs, man, and like you should
Speaker 3: have done it. It's like, but I don't know. It
Speaker 3: just it just sucked. Absolutely.
Speaker 1: I mean this is from the perspective were opening wounds
Speaker 1: and then joking way and.
Speaker 3: I know you're allowed to carry three quarterbacks, like I meant.
Speaker 3: I had a comment earlier this week in the media
Speaker 3: where I was like, I wish they changed that rule,
Speaker 3: and people are like, well, you can change you can
Speaker 3: carry three quarterbacks. I'm like, I know that. I just mean,
Speaker 3: you have fifty three guys active, but only how many
Speaker 3: suit up forty forty eighty six shoot up?
Speaker 1: Forty eight can suit up now, but you would have to,
Speaker 1: but you have to suit up an extra offensive lineman
Speaker 1: almighty first seven.
Speaker 3: My whole point, I was like, I know that. I
Speaker 3: just wish one of those extra active players could be
Speaker 3: a third quarterback because nobody wants to watch that. That's
Speaker 3: not no like, it's it sucks for us, it sucks
Speaker 3: for fans, it sucks for everything. You're like, dude, this
Speaker 3: is there's so you know, people's lives. It's and look
Speaker 3: I'm bitter, and then the wounds are still fresh and
Speaker 3: I'm pissed off, and I get it. I'll get over it.
Speaker 3: But that was just my initial angry thoughts post game.
Speaker 1: Dude, the hockey's got a rule, not necessarily rule, but
Speaker 1: there are literally guys in the stands that are goalies
Speaker 1: and they're like, like, there's two goalies that suit up.
Speaker 1: If both those goalies get hurt, that guy will literally
Speaker 1: go down the.
Speaker 3: Locker room, suit up and go play goalie. That wild Yeah,
Speaker 3: that would.
Speaker 4: Be nice if you were able to do that, because
Speaker 4: it does like and I know we're sitting here talking like,
Speaker 4: oh we should have could It's like this, the chances
Speaker 4: are nine to nine percent chance you were still.
Speaker 3: Going to lose the game.
Speaker 4: Whoa well, I mean the way it was getting out
Speaker 4: of hand, it's just like they had a quarter left
Speaker 4: to make something happen.
Speaker 1: Yeah, what you're saying, you're not saying even with Brock.
Speaker 4: And you're saying like, oh, if you was, if he
Speaker 4: would have acted as the quarterback into the baar, and
Speaker 4: that means they would have won the game. It's like,
Speaker 4: you know, you're kind of just like, well, everyone knows
Speaker 4: it's pretty much gonna be over with.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but I thought you were saying if Brock played
Speaker 1: the entire game, Oh no, no, no, no, okay, just
Speaker 1: when that game you really think so, you really think so?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 4: You no, there there.
Speaker 3: Those are both the two best put together teams in
Speaker 3: the NFL. They were really they were good.
Speaker 7: Man.
Speaker 3: I thought they're a good team. You know, you go
Speaker 3: into every game confident, and that's one thing about Kyle,
Speaker 3: like he gets you to get you know, with his
Speaker 3: game plans and stuff. You're like, oh damn, I'm excited
Speaker 3: for this game, you know, and and who knows what
Speaker 3: would have happened. I just think, man, like, I just
Speaker 3: wish it didn't go that way.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that is especially in that uh uh the first
Speaker 4: drive to like they got that fourth down play and
Speaker 4: obviously you guys are still in it, so it's just
Speaker 4: like nobody's want to get you that catch.
Speaker 3: A different game, it's a different game. How about the punt.
Speaker 3: The punt too, they're rough in the punter. Different game.
Speaker 3: Who knows game. I'm talking on the couch. I know,
Speaker 3: I'm talking on a couch.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but you're wearing that heart on that sleeve right now,
Speaker 1: which is awesome night. We're gonna absolutely love it. You
Speaker 1: had a comment, I think you're on an NFL network
Speaker 1: media role. It might have been yesterday, say you wish
Speaker 1: you hope both teams lose. Obviously that's not gonna happen.
Speaker 1: Who do you not hope? But who do you think? Actually, yeah,
Speaker 1: imagine there's a tie for the Super Bowl that can't happen, right, No,
Speaker 1: it can't happen.
Speaker 3: No, No, there's no way.
Speaker 1: There's no ties, there's no ties. Who do you think
Speaker 1: is going to win this game? Because we've been this
Speaker 1: has been like obviously the conversation for everybody, especially here
Speaker 1: in this house. Everyone's talking over and over about how.
Speaker 3: By the time this comes out, it's like it'll be done,
Speaker 3: it'll be done. We'll clip it real quick and set
Speaker 3: it out today. Yeah. I don't know, man, I don't know.
Speaker 3: I think I don't know. It's so hard for me
Speaker 3: to like say one or the other, you know, because
Speaker 3: I'm so pissed off. You know. It's like, so you
Speaker 3: think the eas not necessarily, not necessarily, I mean tough.
Speaker 3: They're a stacked team that got you know, so many
Speaker 3: weapons on offense and and and that pass rush is serious.
Speaker 3: It's tough to bet against Pat Mahomes ever, you know,
Speaker 3: in a game. So, I don't know. I hope it's
Speaker 3: a good game, though, I don't know if I watch,
Speaker 3: but I hope it's a good game. You don't think you're
Speaker 3: gonna watch the Super It hurts that bad hurts. It hurts. Brother.
Speaker 3: I can't, I can't imagine. I mean I can't.
Speaker 1: I was in the Answer Championship once. But that's gotta
Speaker 1: be fucking tough, you know, exactly as feeling. Yeah, but
Speaker 1: like I mean, we lost made it even tougher because
Speaker 1: there's there is truly a like argument for what if Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, if we got beat, i'd
Speaker 1: be like you know what man prop and and look,
Speaker 1: you're gonna clip that.
Speaker 3: By the way, Philly fans hate hate me right now
Speaker 3: for the whole I hope both team anyway.
Speaker 1: Good, but dude, it's Philly. They're literally that's what they do.
Speaker 3: So but but like I you know, I'm not saying
Speaker 3: we would have won. I am saying, you know, we'd
Speaker 3: have had a chance and that would have been you know,
Speaker 3: but no, like that we would have got it. It's
Speaker 3: actually on Twitter right now. No, But I just think
Speaker 3: having a chance is important in the NFL. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 3: I think Philly's gonna win, So I do. I think
Speaker 3: that's yeah, that's what I think. I think Philly's gonna win.
Speaker 5: There.
Speaker 1: And then you had a fantastic point earlier this week
Speaker 1: where that the way the Chiefs win is off scripted place.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's I.
Speaker 4: Feel because I just feel like Philly can line up
Speaker 4: and beat you eat, you know, both ways, on the ground,
Speaker 4: through the air, which was tough, which was what was
Speaker 4: shitty to watch with you guys. You guys have such
Speaker 4: a tough defense, like seeing them march down and like
Speaker 4: run the balls like fuck man.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but this is the other thing about our team,
Speaker 3: Like I just feel like we've been down in the
Speaker 3: first half in multiple games this year where it was
Speaker 3: looking like that, but our second half adjustments on defense,
Speaker 3: like Demico Ryans had the dialed in the second half,
Speaker 3: and I just feel like that was where we thrived.
Speaker 3: Was that second half, that third and fourth quarter where
Speaker 3: you know, we made a lot of way in that
Speaker 3: second half. So who knows. But you guys have a
Speaker 3: lot of guys in free agency this year. We have
Speaker 3: some really important guys in free agency. But no, we
Speaker 3: get a lot of guys back. Yeah, who are the
Speaker 3: guys that are in free agency. I'm gonna miss some
Speaker 3: of them, I know, Like off the top of my head. Mcglinche,
Speaker 3: I right tackled Jimmy Ward. I'm a big fan of
Speaker 3: Jimmy Ward's stud I'm not sure receiver, who's up and
Speaker 3: who's not. I don't I'm not still not familiar with
Speaker 3: how old everyone is, so I don't know, like who's
Speaker 3: on the free agent market. Those are the ones that
Speaker 3: jumped off the right away, and I think d line
Speaker 3: Charles uh uh center, maybe back d line dude.
Speaker 1: So McGlinchey is one of those dudes on the offensive
Speaker 1: line that I feel like it's way more hate than
Speaker 1: he deserves. I feel like everyone's always like trashing, but
Speaker 1: I feel like he's a pretty solid tackle.
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's really good. Harry slid Yeah, thirty tough is
Speaker 3: you play on the opposite side of Trent Williams your
Speaker 3: whole career, it's like, or not your whole career, but
Speaker 3: like the opposite of Trent Williams. Yeah, Like that's tough. Yeah,
Speaker 3: tough to like you're not you know what I mean. Yeah, No,
Speaker 3: Mike's been nothing, but he's been great.
Speaker 1: Can you imagine being a part of a franchise that
Speaker 1: had Joe Staley for eleven years and then he leaves
Speaker 1: and then you actually have an upgrade a tackle that's
Speaker 1: like the most wild ship his tackles like one of
Speaker 1: those positions like there's so much demand and there's hardly
Speaker 1: any supply.
Speaker 3: Yeah, one hundred crazy. I just think go line in general.
Speaker 3: Now you can get a solid old lineman at any
Speaker 3: of the five positions, but especially left tackle. That's so
Speaker 3: hard to find. Brother, and he does. He has.
Speaker 1: Trent has no sign of slowing down at all. He
Speaker 1: looks he got better when left the Red Skinner. Yea
Speaker 1: with the Commander is now a year off, taking the
Speaker 1: year off, which I feel like, never happens, dude, Yeah,
Speaker 1: never happens.
Speaker 3: Sud Man, he's the free He's the freakiest player I've
Speaker 3: ever seen in my life in person. And I don't
Speaker 3: even know if it's close, like just practicing and like
Speaker 3: it's stupid. Does he practice hard? He doesn't practice Wednesdays.
Speaker 3: He does. Really, he does it what he has to do. Yeah,
Speaker 3: you could you get attest to that. Yeah, he does what.
Speaker 3: He'll be on the side, but he's one of those
Speaker 3: guys that you can do that. Yeah, he's he's one
Speaker 3: of those guys that can. Yeah, I was gonna say.
Speaker 4: The conversation with the lunch they ble genuine as hell,
Speaker 4: innocent as hell, Like I really am waiting on the
Speaker 4: day where I walk in these doors and someone challenges
Speaker 4: me in practice, Like he had that comment when I
Speaker 4: was like a rookie.
Speaker 3: And he said that. He said that to Brian rat Poe, Like, remember,
Speaker 3: I knew it was for real too. Like Bosa, you know,
Speaker 3: every everyone knows Bosa in the year that he's had.
Speaker 3: We're on the bus one time and he's like, I
Speaker 3: got the hardest job in America. Like what He's like,
Speaker 3: I gotta go against trend every Day's defensive Player of
Speaker 3: the Year, saying like, I got the hardest job in America,
Speaker 3: going to like that's yeah, it's it's stupid, man, It's stupid. Yeah.
Speaker 4: I think he almost beat the ship out of somebody
Speaker 4: the Eagles Sue at the end of the game.
Speaker 1: Bro, he's a little long buddy, and get a little
Speaker 1: bit of a history of just going off and that
Speaker 1: the Richard Truman back in the day.
Speaker 3: He went after the he went after the dB went
Speaker 3: the dB. Ain't nothing wrong with that, you know, ain't
Speaker 3: nothing wrong with that?
Speaker 4: Box box box day what I wanted to see because
Speaker 4: Sue ended up trying to get in there, I'm like, oh,
Speaker 4: I'm trying.
Speaker 3: To That would have been a nice little right dude.
Speaker 3: And Dominic consumers trip Williams, right, I think I think
Speaker 3: Trent takes that. Now, though I think Trent takes that,
Speaker 3: I'm not condoning, man, I don't know. Yeah, yeah, like
Speaker 3: there's nobody I'm actually kill me. What if I comment
Speaker 3: on that's gonna kill me? Next year we play on
Speaker 3: kill me.
Speaker 1: If you can catch you, brot, you gotta believe yourself
Speaker 1: being a catching you dude when when you're training for
Speaker 1: the Comma, there's a video that came out about you.
Speaker 3: Uh if you're doing like you were like doing your
Speaker 3: high knees over like some sort of.
Speaker 1: Like little little thing, you know, the video we're talking
Speaker 1: about video?
Speaker 3: I think, uh oh, yeah, how much? How much did you? Dude?
Speaker 1: You're you're in a room, there's a TV going and
Speaker 1: you're stepping over this little like fucking step thing. It's
Speaker 1: like this high You're like going super fast. It looks
Speaker 1: like it's fake. Do you remember that video? Okay, I
Speaker 1: don't know.
Speaker 3: Is that video real? What a fucking question? But is
Speaker 3: that real? Yeah? Being an absolute beast at Stanford such
Speaker 3: a dude. Yeah. Yeah, Stanford was fun, man, And I
Speaker 3: think though the football team was fun for sure. We
Speaker 3: had a good team man, like I feel like people
Speaker 3: counted us out a lot and we didn't even know
Speaker 3: how good we were. But there's like I want to say,
Speaker 3: like twenty to twenty five dudes who I played with
Speaker 3: in the three years I was there, who were in
Speaker 3: the league, like in the league or just got out,
Speaker 3: like you know, who were jumping around for a while.
Speaker 3: I didn't know if we knew how good we were.
Speaker 3: But it was fun, man. I had a lot of
Speaker 3: good times. That Rose Bowl game was a blast. My
Speaker 3: second year was you know, that whole year was fun.
Speaker 3: So I enjoyed it.
Speaker 4: Are you like going through this season just and when
Speaker 4: your shredding record, You're like, yo, this is fucking easy
Speaker 4: out here.
Speaker 3: I didn't know if I was going to start before
Speaker 3: the season started, so my freshman year it was it's
Speaker 3: the whole same running back room as my next year,
Speaker 3: so and I was I didn't start my freshman year.
Speaker 3: I was kind of a you know, third down utility guy,
Speaker 3: part return kick return stuff like that. My second year,
Speaker 3: I got the NOD and our first game we loosed
Speaker 3: to Northwestern and I had a fumble in the game,
Speaker 3: and I just remember like, like this is going to
Speaker 3: be an uphill battle. For me, that was our first game,
Speaker 3: so we're ohen one lost to unranked Northwestern at Northwestern
Speaker 3: and you just don't know what's gonna happen in your territory.
Speaker 3: So it was uh yeah, and then it just started
Speaker 3: going and going and going. I don't think it hit
Speaker 3: me till the end of the year, but that was fun.
Speaker 3: It's a fun tea.
Speaker 1: If you take Stanford out of it, what other what
Speaker 1: college would you want to go to? But the number
Speaker 1: one college or what I would have let's do both.
Speaker 1: Where would you Where would you have gone if it
Speaker 1: wasn't Stanford? And then if you had a choice of
Speaker 1: any school besides Stanford, where where would you have gone?
Speaker 3: I probably would have gone to Oregon. That was like
Speaker 3: in the Michael James d Anthony Thomas kind of era,
Speaker 3: and that kind of fit my style just in high school,
Speaker 3: like same offense, the whole nine track, all that stuff.
Speaker 3: But then, uh, I remember my dad sat me down
Speaker 3: and he he went over all the academic stuff and
Speaker 3: I understood that, but he's like, if you want to
Speaker 3: play in the NFL and like play big dog football,
Speaker 3: you got to run in a pro style offense. It
Speaker 3: is what it is because no one's gonna think that
Speaker 3: you can run in a pro style offense. And I
Speaker 3: was like, dang, you're right, like and he was right,
Speaker 3: like I needed to run power, I needed to run
Speaker 3: inside zone. I need you were going to go to organ,
Speaker 3: I wasn't going to go to Oregon, but I was
Speaker 3: debating between like Stanford, Oregon, Washington. And then my older
Speaker 3: brother played at Duke, so I was highly considering going
Speaker 3: to play with you know, play a duke with him too.
Speaker 3: So those were like the four where I was pretty
Speaker 3: close to going to Yeah, how pivotal was it for
Speaker 3: you to have your old man as like a mentor
Speaker 3: for you? It was growing up? Yeah? The best like
Speaker 3: legit like is it growing up? Was it one year
Speaker 3: out the other?
Speaker 4: And then it got a little bit more you took
Speaker 4: more of his of his advice, like when you got
Speaker 4: closer to college or how was that?
Speaker 3: How was that relationship with him growing up? We? Uh
Speaker 3: so I have three brothers and I'm I'm number two,
Speaker 3: and we all we all played football all, you know,
Speaker 3: played a bunch of different sports. But it was such
Speaker 3: an advantage man, Like we could go to him with
Speaker 3: anything and he was never like, hey, you gotta. He
Speaker 3: was tough man. We had a It was we grew
Speaker 3: up great. We you know, by any means where the
Speaker 3: farthest things from spoiled and it was hard at times,
Speaker 3: but we had so much fun. Man Like we I
Speaker 3: did everything with my brothers, and my older brother kicked
Speaker 3: my ass every single day and everything we did, and
Speaker 3: it was it was so good for me. And and
Speaker 3: having my dad, you know, obviously as an outlet at
Speaker 3: any time we wanted, was was great. I think not
Speaker 3: just for like, hey man, you know, if you're running
Speaker 3: a route and under fifteen yards you should never take
Speaker 3: more than three steps when you break, and like different
Speaker 3: things like that, and how to cut and how to
Speaker 3: plan and how to do this and that. It was
Speaker 3: more like the emotional side of it and how to
Speaker 3: handle your emotions when things happen. Because we were all
Speaker 3: we were always really competitive. We never needed like a
Speaker 3: hey man, you gotta try harder. It was always really
Speaker 3: important to us. So that was never like he didn't
Speaker 3: you know, he was big on effort and grades and
Speaker 3: all these things. But I think like how to handle
Speaker 3: your business and how to you know, deal with emotions
Speaker 3: when you're on the field was important for me to
Speaker 3: learn at a young age, because if I didn't have him,
Speaker 3: I don't know, you know, I don't know what would
Speaker 3: have happened. I gotta follow up.
Speaker 4: You mentioned it being like it was hard at times,
Speaker 4: Like what were the hard times?
Speaker 3: And when I say hard, how the old man was
Speaker 3: tough on you? It's like hard as a you know,
Speaker 3: when you're a kid, like it was. Now, it's not hard.
Speaker 3: I appreciate it. Look, we would get grounded for real
Speaker 3: if you got jersey tackle like seven, eight years old.
Speaker 3: If you got jersey when you wear the big jerseys, yeah,
Speaker 3: you get grounded if you get jersey. Oh really your
Speaker 3: ground depot tape that double sided tape. I'm eight and
Speaker 3: double side tape my pads. This is you know they
Speaker 3: didn't have the velcrobe and double side tape my pads.
Speaker 3: I never got I was running through everybody, no jersey
Speaker 3: tackles ever.
Speaker 6: You know.
Speaker 3: He would cut like certain slits in the pant to
Speaker 3: give you like more neeflection, like back in the day
Speaker 3: at eight years old, doing like dynamic warm ups. Dude,
Speaker 3: no SODA's bedtime seven thirty. Yeah, like he would take
Speaker 3: they would take our phone until I left for high
Speaker 3: school at like a time, He's gonna hate me for
Speaker 3: saying all this, but it worked if you. I mean,
Speaker 3: I don't know if he's gonna listen to it, but
Speaker 3: but yeah, like that's it was like we you know,
Speaker 3: when diet was always important, sleep as always when now
Speaker 3: we were kids, man like we could go over to
Speaker 3: the friend's house. It wasn't like a you know, like
Speaker 3: anything like that. But when it came to sports into school,
Speaker 3: it was, hey, if you want to be here, here
Speaker 3: are the things that you need to do. Like like
Speaker 3: Friday in my off periods, like he would come pick
Speaker 3: me up and I was in high school. We go,
Speaker 3: you know, like middle of the day getting Ivy what
Speaker 3: oh yeah, we're getting We're getting just saline Ivy's game day.
Speaker 3: Because I remember one game I cramped. I cramped against
Speaker 3: Grandview High School, like my sophomore year, first game in
Speaker 3: the fourth quarter. Calf cramps, double calf cramps. It's like,
Speaker 3: you're never cramping it again. Ivy's never cramped again. Oh yeah.
Speaker 3: And I like even like little things like you wear
Speaker 3: in jeans like are my school was a private school,
Speaker 3: you had you wear jeans or you know, no sweats whatever,
Speaker 3: you were in jeans to school. He doesn't even remember this,
Speaker 3: but I remember. It's pretty heavy on legs, don't you think,
Speaker 3: like you know, like you're kind of right war sweats
Speaker 3: got in trouble. Then it's like, look, dude, you gotta
Speaker 3: be comfy during the day. You gotta be relaxed, Like
Speaker 3: this is how you act on a game day, Like
Speaker 3: this is what you do, like all that pep rally shit,
Speaker 3: like don't be yelling, don't be loosing your voice when
Speaker 3: you're out in the sun. If you squint, your wasting energy,
Speaker 3: Like make sure you have like I'm talking and I
Speaker 3: didn't realize. So like people who like know me now
Speaker 3: and they see how you know, taking how I take
Speaker 3: care of my body and like the warm ups and
Speaker 3: all these stuff. It's like that's been like bread in
Speaker 3: us since I was a kid, Like it's been taught
Speaker 3: to us for the longest time. Like, hey, this is
Speaker 3: and that's what he did. And he was over the top,
Speaker 3: Like there's guys in his team were like, what the
Speaker 3: hell is this guy? This guy's nuts. But you know,
Speaker 3: I mean I always felt like I had a chip
Speaker 3: on my shoulder and people were gonna count me out.
Speaker 3: And so I was gonna do everything. He go away
Speaker 3: in at like the washing. I mean everybody did this,
Speaker 3: but like I go on my Washington visit, I think
Speaker 3: I was like one eight. I had to be one
Speaker 3: eighty two or something like. That's how much I weighed.
Speaker 3: And he put like we put like little ten ten
Speaker 3: pounds like slit squares in my shoes or in my
Speaker 3: socks in case they made me take my shoes off,
Speaker 3: so that if you take your shoes off, you know
Speaker 3: obviously they're still in your socks. And I ended up
Speaker 3: weighing like one ninety eight. I had like a thick
Speaker 3: pair of puffy jeans on like the whole nine. Every
Speaker 3: trick in the brother you could think of. No to
Speaker 3: the University of University of Washington. So your daddy your
Speaker 3: going pro the minute you came out of the way.
Speaker 3: When when the coaches, when the college coaches would come
Speaker 3: to my high school, and like I was never small,
Speaker 3: so to say, but I was always people would say
Speaker 3: I'm small, like for you know, I wasn't two thirty.
Speaker 3: But he's like when the coaches come, like you got
Speaker 3: to go knock out like twenty five in the bathroom,
Speaker 3: Like so I would be doing push ups, bathroom floor
Speaker 3: curls and with my backpack before like you know, some
Speaker 3: QC from you know, Tennessee would come by. It has
Speaker 3: no he's not gonna offer me at all anyway, but
Speaker 3: my veins are popping out. I'm like, coach, nice to meet.
Speaker 3: You're like, yeah, he was like the whole nine. Yeah, hilarious,
Speaker 3: whole nine.
Speaker 4: That makes sense because you were dressed you were dressed
Speaker 4: up professionally when you visited Washington for your draft visit,
Speaker 4: because he was sitting in the special team's room with
Speaker 4: the special teams coordinator.
Speaker 3: Because remember we met that guy. I remember he came
Speaker 3: in and you're like sitting there and you got like
Speaker 3: this college shirt on everything else. I was like, oh man,
Speaker 3: I didn't. I didn't know. That wasn't twenty minutes break.
Speaker 3: I remember. I should I did. I did every visit
Speaker 3: I took. I was like, I thought that's what people did, Like,
Speaker 3: that's why I did that. If I knew, like, you know,
Speaker 3: that guy's kind of going over board, I probably would have,
Speaker 3: you know, maybe just not to tie, you know, maybe
Speaker 3: not to tie maybe just the shirt.
Speaker 4: It's just the fact that he's in the special teams
Speaker 4: coordinator's office, like he's obviously gonna be a tough running back.
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah. And he's in there talking teams, the coordinator
Speaker 3: and you hard.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's talking teams in every fifteen minutes, he's like, hey, coach,
Speaker 1: I had another bathroom. Quick gets another twenty Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, oh yeah, dude.
Speaker 1: He's got great square shoulders and the great square shoulders.
Speaker 3: So like people forget you played nine years in the NFL.
Speaker 3: People forget like funny and it's so it's, well, he
Speaker 3: do what. It's like nine years in the league. Man,
Speaker 3: that's pretty Let me get that. That's pretty impressive. No,
Speaker 3: am I wrong? No, you're right, brother.
Speaker 1: I think we're all kind of worried because I will
Speaker 1: he played ten years now.
Speaker 3: Ten years happened. No, I was just thinking. I was
Speaker 3: just wondering, you know, a little compliment, we'll.
Speaker 4: Call it, said Christian mccaff Chris respect.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're eleven. You're Eleven's eleven? Well right now, that
Speaker 1: is that's all eyes are on. You're eleven right now?
Speaker 1: For Will Compton, when you spent years in the NFL,
Speaker 1: when did you know like, Okay, I'm gonna I'm gonna
Speaker 1: make it to the NFL.
Speaker 3: Had eight years old. I remember I would go to
Speaker 3: like for me, it was I always knew how hard
Speaker 3: it was to get to the end like that. While
Speaker 3: while I knew I was good, I always knew there
Speaker 3: was like another level and I'd never gone against that
Speaker 3: other level. So I used to go to those all
Speaker 3: American like the you know, the FBU All American games
Speaker 3: when I was in like the seventh and eighth grade,
Speaker 3: and I just remember them hype like they they thought
Speaker 3: I was the punter. They gave me like the you know,
Speaker 3: the wrong they spelled my name wrong on the jersey,
Speaker 3: and I just like stuff like that mattered to me.
Speaker 3: And I just used to piss me off so much,
Speaker 3: and it always like stuck with me. And uh, they
Speaker 3: would hype up these other backs, like these other guys
Speaker 3: you know, like so much unch and that was like
Speaker 3: the poster of their whole thing. I'm like, mo, like,
Speaker 3: I'm looking better than that dude.
Speaker 4: Somebody you're thinking about, who was somebody in the guy
Speaker 4: you're thinking about right now.
Speaker 3: He's my guy and I love him and he yeah.
Speaker 3: And by the way, at the time, looking back, he
Speaker 3: probably he probably had the edge on me, which is
Speaker 3: tough to admit. Yeah, it was Michelle ran ten seven
Speaker 3: in the eighth grade, and you would have thought this guy,
Speaker 3: I mean, he was an impressive he played varsity as
Speaker 3: an eighth grader, and I just remember like he was
Speaker 3: the gold standard in the middle and I'm talking. I'm
Speaker 3: talking about middle school football right now. I don't but
Speaker 3: you see playing eighth grade. Seriously, fat, how do you
Speaker 3: play varsity in eighth grade American Heritage high school? I
Speaker 3: and all his highlight tapes like he didn't even know this,
Speaker 3: by the way, like but now he does. Yeah. I
Speaker 3: used to like like I don't know what the rule
Speaker 3: was in Florida, but in in Fort Lauderder, I guess
Speaker 3: like they let him play varsity. I mean he was
Speaker 3: balling five year letter in high school, so he was, yeah,
Speaker 3: he was, he was, you know, and then did the
Speaker 3: same thing. Went to be like army all American games,
Speaker 3: same and it's all the backs that are in the league.
Speaker 3: So like, looking back, I should have been like, hey, man,
Speaker 3: you're in the right class, like these are good, you know,
Speaker 3: good backs, but I was it was still like, uh,
Speaker 3: I always had to prove myself everywhere I've been, and
Speaker 3: you know, I mean, it is what it is. I
Speaker 3: feel like that's everyone's story. It's not like just me.
Speaker 3: I feel, you know, more, I talk to people more
Speaker 3: like yeah, same, you know, but we all make up
Speaker 3: some inemy and or every.
Speaker 1: Yeah, everybody has their own story, absolutely like they. I
Speaker 1: don't know, got like three guys in my head right now.
Speaker 1: It's like I remember, I remember looking at dudes being like,
Speaker 1: these guys fucking don't even know. Yeah, they have no
Speaker 1: idea what's about to come?
Speaker 3: Combine e er y dude, I'll never forget it. And
Speaker 3: I didn't even realize it either. I didn't look at
Speaker 3: like the way they spelled my name, so I did
Speaker 3: the whole thing. My buddies are hitting me up like, dude,
Speaker 3: yeah damn tho they disrespected you.
Speaker 1: Yeah, how does that make you feel?
Speaker 3: You know what it's like? Because because I'm I get
Speaker 3: like salty like that, I I notice it more like
Speaker 3: I'm sure most people who aren't bitter like me, they're
Speaker 3: probably like yeah whatever, like who cares, you know, and
Speaker 3: they're fine, it doesn't matter. But because I like, you
Speaker 3: know what I mean, I don't know, like you said,
Speaker 3: you all you always create an enemy, and I think
Speaker 3: that's what keeps guys going, like I, it's it's you.
Speaker 3: You have to keep that chip. Otherwise it's it's just
Speaker 3: tough to find a purpose. You're not you're not the minority.
Speaker 1: I feel like keeping the chip, like there's way more
Speaker 1: guys like that. And then most of the time that
Speaker 1: there are these successful guys right that have that chip
Speaker 1: always that are like this, people are out to get me,
Speaker 1: and one one little thing like spelling your last name wrong,
Speaker 1: like this is all I needed, Like this, this is
Speaker 1: the affirmation I needed person to know. Yeah, you know that,
Speaker 1: like these people are really truly out to get me.
Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly, that's how you feel. You're like, yeah, you
Speaker 3: want me to fail, yes, yeah.
Speaker 1: And and honestly, if you really were able to zoom out,
Speaker 1: no one's thinking about you.
Speaker 3: Didn't care less, not one person, probably the marketing dude
Speaker 3: who like couldn't even like he's just putting together the
Speaker 3: like doing the jerseys in the back. It's not like
Speaker 3: the NFL is not again. Roger Goodell.
Speaker 1: Roger Goodell called was like, fuck it up, dude, we
Speaker 1: cannot have a white running back in the NFL right now.
Speaker 3: All the guy's name wrong. Yeah, I know, yeah, it's crazy,
Speaker 3: you know, but and and sometimes it is like that,
Speaker 3: but you know there's real stuff that where you're like, man,
Speaker 3: somebody actually might feel like that. But then you find
Speaker 3: the little things that just kind of subconsciously confirm it.
Speaker 3: It's like, it's just keeping me alive right now, Like
Speaker 3: that's what's that's what's waking me up. You do seem
Speaker 3: super fucking competitive. What's keeping you alive? Right now? What's
Speaker 3: that game? That last game? Oh? Yeah, oh yeah, that'll
Speaker 3: that'll I think everybody kind of feels that, you know,
Speaker 3: the whole Yeah, I mean, that's there's a lot you know,
Speaker 3: it was a good revival of a year of like
Speaker 3: all right, let's go. You know, that's how I feel.
Speaker 3: You hope to play against Carolina soon. That thin gonna
Speaker 3: be awesome. Dude.
Speaker 1: That was the best possible so you could have had.
Speaker 1: They are, do you guys play the next year? I
Speaker 1: don't think we play next year? Know, I know, we
Speaker 1: don't plan. You know, you know, they don't have any
Speaker 1: other question.
Speaker 3: I know. I well, I just want to ask real quickly,
Speaker 3: what's that? All right? Cool? Eight minutes? All right?
Speaker 1: Uh matt ruhle he is now the head coach of Nebraska,
Speaker 1: what things do you have? Like obviously his time in
Speaker 1: Carolina was up and down. He got fired, But what
Speaker 1: do you think he's going to make him successful or
Speaker 1: if he's even going to be successful in Nebraska?
Speaker 3: Like, what what can I look forward to? Yeah? What
Speaker 3: can we look forward to? Seriously? The boys will play hard?
Speaker 3: Like that's one thing with coach rule, you know, you
Speaker 3: buy into his his way, like guys play hard man
Speaker 3: from top to bottom. I mean, you know the deal
Speaker 3: in the NFL, how tough it is to coach in
Speaker 3: this league, and a lot of things have to go right.
Speaker 3: I always said, like head coaching, quarterback, way too much credit,
Speaker 3: way too much blame. But no I have I have
Speaker 3: nothing but good things to say about Coltrull. He he
Speaker 3: got us going, man, he really from from the first
Speaker 3: year he got there too. And and the different things
Speaker 3: that he did and learned in his time, and his
Speaker 3: ability to change the things that he thought were wrong
Speaker 3: I thought was impressive too, Like openness to talk to guys,
Speaker 3: being able to you know, say hey, that was probably
Speaker 3: wrong of me to do and then change and actually
Speaker 3: go by it, you know, understanding like hey, I don't
Speaker 3: have it all figured out. I'm in year one two adaptability.
Speaker 3: But I mean, you saw the success he had in college. Man,
Speaker 3: that's I think it's a reason. Yeah, fires me up.
Speaker 3: That's amazing. Well, it does seem like a consistent message.
Speaker 3: Like as far.
Speaker 1: As was Matt Rule, the one was Christian, the one
Speaker 1: Matt Rule said saw his family in the airport.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, he had.
Speaker 1: He was very complimentive of you said that you were
Speaker 1: walking out. I think it was when he got when
Speaker 1: he got traded. Yeah, and you saw his family and
Speaker 1: his and his kids in the in the airport.
Speaker 3: Work, and you went up to them and said, what's up?
Speaker 3: Onward man, onward and upward you guys. Yeah, yeah, it
Speaker 3: was weird. Honestly, it's like, this is an interesting head.
Speaker 3: Coach gets canned, I get canned. It's like, yeah, brother,
Speaker 3: you didn't get canned. You know what I mean?
Speaker 4: You can?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 1: No, you think you gotta tell you would they would
Speaker 1: they get in the trade? What did Carolina get?
Speaker 3: They got a two, three, a four, and a five,
Speaker 3: not all in the same year. I think I think
Speaker 3: it's over a couple of years. Yeah, man, you know
Speaker 3: he told himself that too, like, oh they didn't get me.
Speaker 4: A first Okay, Okay, I know I would have handled it,
Speaker 4: and I took that personal, and yeah, dude.
Speaker 3: We got it. Uh favor one of them and I've had.
Speaker 3: I think one that comes to mind was the first
Speaker 3: place the Rose Bull I was. You know, that was
Speaker 3: a game that I don't think anybody knew what was
Speaker 3: gonna happen, and uh, I was pissed off, and uh
Speaker 3: I just lost the heisman. The boy Derrick Henry, who's
Speaker 3: the boy by the way. I love that guy. I
Speaker 3: really do want to. I want to not like him.
Speaker 3: I can't. I love his game, I love him. I
Speaker 3: think he's I think he's great.
Speaker 1: But then a couple of years ago, when you beat
Speaker 1: us in Carolina, you're like, that's for you, Derek.
Speaker 3: But that game, that game, you know, I think that
Speaker 3: that play sparked just uh one of those games where
Speaker 3: just everything goes right for you. You know. I think
Speaker 3: like the safety came down the middle, linebacker slip so
Speaker 3: there's no whole player and then there's nobody behind the guy.
Speaker 3: So I had to do is make him miss, and god,
Speaker 3: it just house call. And I think we all knew,
Speaker 3: like this is about to be one of those games.
Speaker 3: And then and then the flip against when I jumped
Speaker 3: over that dude against Jacksonville. That was a fun play.
Speaker 3: That hurt My back hurt for like six weeks after that,
Speaker 3: but that was that was a memorable one. That's fucking awesome.
Speaker 3: I know, right makes you got anything, Garrett jack We
Speaker 3: were winning, you know, I mean I think I think
Speaker 3: like I have a hard time like when you're losing,
Speaker 3: like celebrating, Like it's kind of like the urgency to
Speaker 3: like get back to the huddle and get going a
Speaker 3: little bits, you know. And you're not the first person
Speaker 3: that said that, and I it might too be just
Speaker 3: like when you get traded. It's there's a lot of
Speaker 3: pressure that comes with that because you're on a new team,
Speaker 3: but there's also like an amount of pressure that just
Speaker 3: gets off your shoulders. You're like, you know what, man,
Speaker 3: Like I'm gonna just go have fun playing football because
Speaker 3: this is what I love to do. And you know,
Speaker 3: I just think when you I we had so many
Speaker 3: tough seasons in Carolina. I wanted more to celebrate than
Speaker 3: like the touchdown. You know, I wanted to win games.
Speaker 3: I wanted to be like, not just win one get
Speaker 3: win a couple in a row and then start to
Speaker 3: get momentum. Then you start to see the boys having
Speaker 3: a little more fun, but uh, just tough. Sometimes that
Speaker 3: fires me up. Dude.
Speaker 4: I'm pleasure with the I'm glad you with san Fran
Speaker 4: because I feel like you guys are they can be
Speaker 4: good for a while. They got the organization running smooth.
Speaker 4: It's just getting to the fucking super Bowl.
Speaker 3: Yeah right, not. I can get Rogers though Rogers say
Speaker 3: he's not going to San Fran. You say that the
Speaker 3: Raiders might have a shot at him.
Speaker 1: We'll see, Yeah, if the Raiders are the big one,
Speaker 1: big one for him. But I thought he said in
Speaker 1: a golf tournament, I'm not going to San Fran.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think he said. Did you say that? I
Speaker 3: don't know. I don't know why I am crushing this podcast.
Speaker 3: What kind of father you think you're gonna be? Kind
Speaker 3: of father? Joe? Are we getting jersey tackles? We grounding
Speaker 3: the kids? Or what are you doing that? You gotta
Speaker 3: do what you know, That's all I know. All at
Speaker 3: a boy, I worry about that. Though, I worry about that.
Speaker 3: It's like, is my kid gonna hate eat me? Like, hey, man,
Speaker 3: come over here real quick. We're gonna tape your jersey,
Speaker 3: put it in from the fireplace, and do all this stuff.
Speaker 3: And I was like seven thirty, all right, I forget
Speaker 3: what got home from hoops like, but no, I mean
Speaker 3: it's funny because it started to work like when he
Speaker 3: did that, and I was like, damn, like, all right,
Speaker 3: that's the way it is. That's the way it is.
Speaker 3: And I enjoyed having success more than I enjoyed like,
Speaker 3: you know, staying up and all that stuff. It was
Speaker 3: fun for me. So I think all of us hated
Speaker 3: it at times, but under we all understood it. All
Speaker 3: four of us stah. Yeah, but yeah, So what am
Speaker 3: I gonna be? I don't know. That's a good question.
