Speaker 1: That was a street skateboarder, Nija Houston, sharing his story
Speaker 1: the disappointment that he suffered in Paris in position to
Speaker 1: win the gold medal Oho and then his last run
Speaker 1: did not work out the way he had hope or
Speaker 1: way he envisioned. So he was sharing his story about
Speaker 1: the disappointment and about the heartbreak and how he was
Speaker 1: struggling mentally with it. But he said, you know what,
Speaker 1: I got a great support system. I'm gonna be okay.
Speaker 1: I got a great life and this one setback does
Speaker 1: not define me. It doesn't make me, it doesn't make
Speaker 1: me less, doesn't make me more. But I will get
Speaker 1: over there. So we appreciate him sharing his story on
Speaker 1: Nightcap with all our subscribers and listeners. So thank you guys.
Speaker 1: Hopefully you got something out of that and you really
Speaker 1: appreciated that interview.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, oh Joe.
Speaker 1: You said that you skateboard and that you wanted to
Speaker 1: you wanted to show the people at home kind of
Speaker 1: like what you.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeh yeah, yeah, yeah, you remember that.
Speaker 1: Oh you remember that, but that looks that looked very cartoonish.
Speaker 2: Yoo oo. I'm surprised you ain't break your back.
Speaker 4: It hurt a little bit, hurt a little bit, but
Speaker 4: that's the only way that that's the only way to
Speaker 4: get better. I'm surprised you remember that. You see, I
Speaker 4: can skate for real, but I can't do no damn tricks.
Speaker 4: But I can I can ride, I can ride the board.
Speaker 4: It looked like I know what I'm doing, but when
Speaker 4: I try to execute something, that's what the execution looked like.
Speaker 1: Man, my back hurt. I don't know if I'm being
Speaker 1: able to get on this plane a little bit watching that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah hurt. Yeah. Man, it's all good. Listen.
Speaker 4: I can skateboard it just when it come to doing tricks,
Speaker 4: I fall over and over and over until I get
Speaker 4: it right. And I was like, that might have been
Speaker 4: my third time, third or four time falling like that,
Speaker 4: but I kept trying.
Speaker 1: Well, give yourself credit. I mean, I ain't falling like
Speaker 1: that because I already know I can't do it.
Speaker 2: You can't get back up. You ain't gonna get back.
Speaker 1: Up after you get a certain agejo Jo olicks hurt.
Speaker 1: I mean, man, I fall out. I shattered like ice.
Speaker 1: You know, if you drive, you drop ice from the
Speaker 1: kitchen play you see that sh the isshu go everywhere.
Speaker 2: That's exactly what's gonna happen to me. I ain't taking
Speaker 2: the falls like that, or you're good.
Speaker 1: That's a good one. I shout it like, oh y'all, y'all.
Speaker 1: We got to get to this. These comments by no allows.
Speaker 1: This is what he said last year. He said, you
Speaker 1: know the thing that hurts me the moment is that
Speaker 1: I have to watch the NBA final and they have
Speaker 1: world champions, excuse me, world champion on their head, world champion.
Speaker 2: Of what the United States. Don't get me wrong.
Speaker 1: I love the US at all times, but that ain't
Speaker 1: the world we uh well more. Few got added to
Speaker 1: the fire the day when Time magazine revealed that while
Speaker 1: he was negotiating a contract with Adidas last year, the
Speaker 1: company offered him an invite to a shoe release for
Speaker 1: Anthony Edwards. Low seems to take offense to the offer,
Speaker 1: considering he was the world champion ant man, wasn't you.
Speaker 2: Want me to do what? You want?
Speaker 1: To invite me to an event for a man who's
Speaker 1: not even been to the NBA finals in a sport
Speaker 1: that you don't even care about, and you're giving him
Speaker 1: a shoe. No disrespect to the man of an amazing athlete.
Speaker 1: He's having a heck of a heck of a year.
Speaker 1: I love that you saw insight to give him a
Speaker 1: shoe because they saw he was doing He's going to
Speaker 1: be big.
Speaker 2: All I'm asking is, how could you not see that
Speaker 2: in me?
Speaker 4: Oh man, Listen, there's certain battles that you shouldn't fight.
Speaker 4: Sometimes you got to picky battles wisely. I'm just thinking
Speaker 4: for me, you picky battles wisely. As someone who is
Speaker 4: great at their sport. Stuff like this can contin turn
Speaker 4: turn brands away, It could turn down market, It could
Speaker 4: turn marketing opportunities away from you.
Speaker 2: Even though you are a gold medal winner.
Speaker 4: As a partner with the data and in good faith
Speaker 4: supporting your fellow NBA player, that just one goal, now,
Speaker 4: you know that is unfortunate. I think the hard part
Speaker 4: is as a track runner, the market and demand for
Speaker 4: a track runner shoot, it wouldn't be as significant as
Speaker 4: a NBA basketball player who was seen globally.
Speaker 2: You think, let me ask you a question not yoe.
Speaker 2: I mean yeah, in the course in the course of five.
Speaker 1: Months, how many times are people gonna look at no
Speaker 1: allows feet? Yeah, in the course of an NBA season,
Speaker 1: how many people gonna look at at man feet.
Speaker 4: To every well, every where, every two three days? Yeah,
Speaker 4: in the and then guess what that man can do?
Speaker 4: A man can say, hey, bro as a solid TU
Speaker 4: mean you and us athlete? Hey, can you wear my shoes?
Speaker 4: What other track athletes gonna wear no allowed shoes? Because
Speaker 4: you see Lebron has players, other players in the NBA
Speaker 4: wearing Lebron. You see kd as other players wear the
Speaker 4: KDB call me.
Speaker 1: So I'm just trying to figure out, do you know,
Speaker 1: let's let's just say, for the sake of art, get
Speaker 1: a little research here, old chown.
Speaker 2: Normally, when they when Nike Adidas under Armor.
Speaker 1: When they give somebody a signature shoe, they say that
Speaker 1: that base is between five and fifteen million dollars.
Speaker 2: Now when they give you.
Speaker 1: A shoe, she's gonna want five percent of each shoe.
Speaker 1: So in order for them to make that kind of
Speaker 1: commitment to you, do you know how many shoes gonna
Speaker 1: have to say.
Speaker 2: Applying the man comes into play supplying the man.
Speaker 1: They don't just look at oh he there's a reason
Speaker 1: why big guys don't normally get shoe deal because ain't nobody.
Speaker 4: Buying any shoes? Yeah, yeah, yeah, I don't. I don't
Speaker 4: think he understands that that side of it.
Speaker 1: He's just looking at it like I'm the world champion,
Speaker 1: I'm the fastest man in the world.
Speaker 2: Give me a shoe. Yeah, it doesn't work like that.
Speaker 1: We could go back. We could find two guys that
Speaker 1: had shoes. Michael Johnson had a shoe, Usain Boat had
Speaker 1: a shoot. They don't still make those shoes. He why
Speaker 1: is that Kobe Kobe hadn't played basketball, and how long
Speaker 1: Kobe's been deceased for four years?
Speaker 2: They still make Kobe's. Yeah, they still make Jordan's.
Speaker 1: They're still gonna make Lebron when Lebron retire, They're still
Speaker 1: gonna make retire.
Speaker 2: There's a reason why. Noah, I don't know what you're missing.
Speaker 4: Yeah, no, No, it's greated what he does. He's he
Speaker 4: has grated marketing himself. He is great at getting brand deals.
Speaker 4: He will continue to get them as is because he
Speaker 4: has a personality.
Speaker 2: He has that.
Speaker 4: But I don't believe it that that or or that
Speaker 4: he has that in factor it takes.
Speaker 2: To be represented by brand deals.
Speaker 4: But as far as the shoe, like, that's different because
Speaker 4: it's it's seemed differently. You know, there's not enough exposure
Speaker 4: in the track in the track space to have a
Speaker 4: shoe deal.
Speaker 1: But let me ask you what hey do, like Shock
Speaker 1: partner with Walmart, make shoe for twenty thirty dollars and
Speaker 1: sell a boat.
Speaker 2: Lot of them do, like Stefan.
Speaker 1: Maulberry do like lebar ball one if you so hell
Speaker 1: been on make it a sneaker.
Speaker 2: Go that route.
Speaker 4: Yeah, nice, A nice training would be dope, a nice
Speaker 4: a nice waffle shoe, a nice waffle shoe, a nice,
Speaker 4: nice spike.
Speaker 2: But it's just they don't do it.
Speaker 1: Oh Joe, there's a I mean, think about it. Only
Speaker 1: football player, I mean, Dion is really the only football
Speaker 1: player that had a shoe. He had a cross train. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Bo Jackson, Yeah that's it.
Speaker 2: That's only those. It's only those two hunhs. What hed
Speaker 2: you wearing? What your heir?
Speaker 1: You are? You were in clea to the mall? You
Speaker 1: going to a wedding, get a pair of cleats. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna say that basketball shoes. Basketball shoe is just not
Speaker 1: for basketball.
Speaker 2: It's a staff, yeah, and you can wear it anyway.
Speaker 2: It's caulture clease Saint no damn calt The tracks, Fike Saint.
Speaker 4: No, call them god damn bo Jackson's Cross trains. Remember
Speaker 4: the all white ones with the orange with the orange lining.
Speaker 2: A little bit, Yes, about the boat the bulls that
Speaker 2: we had.
Speaker 1: We had the blue and gold ones and everybody know
Speaker 1: what I'm talking about in the in the late eighties,
Speaker 1: them boat.
Speaker 2: The first boat. I know, y'all know what I'm talking about.
Speaker 2: The classic boy. Uh, Mike, Mike Vick.
Speaker 4: That's right, that's right, that's right, the Mike vic experience
Speaker 4: when he was at Atlanta, when it was Atlanta.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm thinking them thinking were nice too and things.
Speaker 4: Oh wait, I just don't know if the Randy Randy
Speaker 4: most don't have a shoe that he is with Jordan,
Speaker 4: though he's with Jordan, I just.
Speaker 1: Don't know, Joe of a track athlete, they're not visible enough.
Speaker 1: I mean the big meets. You get two, you get
Speaker 1: two World Championships, and you get two Olympics, and that's
Speaker 1: kind of the only time that people are really talking
Speaker 1: tracking feet, right, where basketball.
Speaker 2: You know it's and you know it's.
Speaker 1: What they come out October, so, October, November, December, January, February, March, April, May,
Speaker 1: and the NBA Finals in the June. So nine months
Speaker 1: and as you said, a couple of times a week,
Speaker 1: we're gonna see what's on that.
Speaker 4: Man's foot feet. And then you got some man got
Speaker 4: some dough fast colorways boy. And the thing is he
Speaker 4: gonna do something crazy. He gonna dunk on somebody. Now
Speaker 4: I want to go you run the world record time.
Speaker 4: I don't still want to go out and buy no tracks.
Speaker 1: Fight And so you have to look at it from
Speaker 1: a business I want to say, you know what, I'm
Speaker 1: tired of getting fired, man. I want to creep something
Speaker 1: on my own Okay. I had to come out all
Speaker 1: damn pocket.
Speaker 2: Right. If you serious somebody, you gonna have to come
Speaker 2: out your own pocket.
Speaker 1: You have to pay producer, You gonna have to pay
Speaker 1: you know, editors and graphics and all that stuff.
Speaker 2: Oh jack.
Speaker 1: And when you go on location and shoot somebody got
Speaker 1: a payer black?
Speaker 2: Oh yeah you want to shoot mister shaw?
Speaker 1: Oh we love plus hold out cost you ten thousand. Yeah,
Speaker 1: And then you got to put people up what it's
Speaker 1: standing there.
Speaker 4: On Joe somewell, now go they're gonna get there, got
Speaker 4: to fly them.
Speaker 1: People just think like, oh I'm popular, Just give me
Speaker 1: a shoe. People look Adidas and Nikes and companies. They're
Speaker 1: not nonprofits.
Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 1: They had this thing, who was it Chanelle or d
Speaker 1: or They makes a purse for fifty seven dollars and
Speaker 1: a center for twenty five hundred. Okay, don't buy the purse,
Speaker 1: or you gonna make a purse that you like and
Speaker 1: there you go.
Speaker 2: Now that markup gonna be the whope.
Speaker 1: That's the whole thing. You're supposed to make something like
Speaker 1: it doesn't cost me a lot. But then you say
Speaker 1: everything is a mark up. Oh I was reading this
Speaker 1: saying a restaurants mark up anything between one hundred and
Speaker 1: two hundred and fifty percent.
Speaker 2: He just you just told me about that, remember not
Speaker 2: too long ago. Yeah you Kyrie. Yeah, they they got it.
Speaker 2: They got they got to make a.
Speaker 1: Profit, yes, but they got but oh Joe, they got
Speaker 1: the big they're not. Anytime somebody give you a boatload
Speaker 1: of money, they feel they can pay make more money
Speaker 1: than what they're paying you. So if you if they're
Speaker 1: paying If they're paying Joe Burrow fifty five million, howbout
Speaker 1: you think the Bengals are.
Speaker 4: Making and the jersey sales and ticket sales by time
Speaker 4: man crazy.
Speaker 2: Yes, it's just it's just hard.
Speaker 1: It's hard for a football player to sell shoes because
Speaker 1: they associate cleats with football players. They associate tracks, fights
Speaker 1: with track apptes basketball.
Speaker 2: Oh, now it's cool to wear a suit or a
Speaker 2: top feaker what you call you?
Speaker 4: Ever heard of a sneaker ball? You know how to
Speaker 4: be having sneaker balls?
Speaker 2: Sneakers? Yeah, yes, So it's just I don't know.
Speaker 4: I just still but somebody, somebody got to talk to
Speaker 4: him and and explain the the business.
Speaker 2: Side of it. I can see where he's coming from.
Speaker 4: But if somebody sat down and explained to him the
Speaker 4: business side of it and how uh and it might
Speaker 4: make sense to him. But it doesn't make sense to Adidas,
Speaker 4: or would make sense to Nike, regardless of how popular
Speaker 4: or or or how on fire and hot you are
Speaker 4: right now, I'm a.
Speaker 2: Business standpoint to them. It just doesn't make sense.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I got I mean like Griffy, but Griffy had
Speaker 1: a cross trainer.
Speaker 4: Adam Griffiths was nice boy, I got him. Adam Griffiths
Speaker 4: was nice, the black, the black with the with the
Speaker 4: till the Marriner his colors then he had, but he
Speaker 4: had the all white with the nice.
Speaker 2: But Nike is not just handing out shoe.
Speaker 1: Right when when Nike give you a signature deal, they
Speaker 1: understand the risks that they're taking. That's why they're very particular.
Speaker 1: You know lifetime deals. Only Lebron James, Michael Jordan and
Speaker 1: Kevin Durant has a lifetime. But we can deal with Nike.
Speaker 1: Kyrie had a very popular shoe. They lost their minds.
Speaker 1: He said something. Yeah, he tweets supposed to something, and
Speaker 1: it's like nah. He's like, well, hell I go somewhere else.
Speaker 1: They're gonna make me creative director. I design my own shoe.
Speaker 1: Got a nice shoe. I just don't think. I don't
Speaker 1: think now Noah understands. I think he's just looking at
Speaker 1: it like I'm popular, give me a shoe, and it
Speaker 1: just doesn't work like that because think about the indeed,
Speaker 1: the research and development that's gonna go into it. I mean,
Speaker 1: they paid you five to ten fifteen million. What does
Speaker 1: it cost to bring a shoe the market?
Speaker 4: I know, listen, it might happen because he's making this
Speaker 4: kind of a nooyse though you never know it might
Speaker 4: happen because kind of.
Speaker 1: It gotta make sense. It's got him making gonna make dollars. Yeah, hey,
Speaker 1: because if it doesn't make dollars, it doesn't make fair.
Speaker 2: The bottom line will always be the same no matter
Speaker 2: what they gave. They gave.
Speaker 1: Uh, I mean you know, like every you know, like
Speaker 1: p rod skate dunks.
Speaker 2: I mean everybody you know.
Speaker 1: They've had, you know, uh, Jeff Staples with the pigeon dunks,
Speaker 1: you know some something everybody, everybody can't sell. Travis Scott's
Speaker 1: done amazing. Boy, Kanye is done amazing. Yeah, I mean
Speaker 1: Kanye's with Nike blah blah blah. He's like, y'all don't
Speaker 1: want to do this. Oh he goes to a DS.
Speaker 1: He does yeasy box office. But there have been a
Speaker 1: lot of guys that they've given try to put that
Speaker 1: day and it doesn't work.
Speaker 2: Now, so I mean, uh, uh Asia has a shoe now.
Speaker 1: I think uh uh Angel Reeves has rebox on Hershey,
Speaker 1: her shoe looks nice. I think they're coming out with
Speaker 1: a shoe for Caitlin Clark right, it's gonna be.
Speaker 2: Like, I don't think it's done yet. I think they're
Speaker 2: coming out with a shoe.
Speaker 4: There's somebody else with Nike that has a shoe that's
Speaker 4: really dope. I think it's for women though it's for
Speaker 4: women and it's joy I think it's Jordan Brandon if
Speaker 4: I'm not mistaken.
Speaker 2: I can't think of who it is.
Speaker 1: Uh Anges and man Noah has one point five million
Speaker 1: i G followers and has four four plus million Anger
Speaker 1: rees four million, and Nija has its own skateboard shoe
Speaker 1: and has almost six.
Speaker 2: Million i G followers. Exposure matters, it does.
Speaker 1: It does matter because you gotta have you have to
Speaker 1: have a presence, and they're on television. I mean, I'm
Speaker 1: only gonna see no at the Olympics, in the World Championships,
Speaker 1: us AS.
Speaker 2: So really three four big meets a year when you
Speaker 2: think about.
Speaker 4: It, it's just tough. And I guess, man, there is
Speaker 4: a there is a track market for him though.
Speaker 2: There is a.
Speaker 4: Demand, you know, if it was but the demand that
Speaker 4: would make sense for the bigionnaire business or the being
Speaker 4: their entity that is the Didas.
Speaker 2: Thatn't make sense to them. No, don't makes sense to them.
Speaker 1: That's what it has to make sense, right, Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: because they're the one that's flipping up the money. Right man,
Speaker 1: you don't see my vision. You don't see what they say. Okay,
Speaker 1: if somebody doesn't see your vision, somebody doesn't see.
Speaker 2: Your cred on your own with's your own money.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so I understand me. It's frustrating. But you talk
Speaker 1: about Carl Lewis was one of the most one of
Speaker 1: the most popular sprinters in the history, definitely in America.
Speaker 1: Michael Johnson, Michael Johnson had a shoe. Uh you saying
Speaker 1: had a shoe. There were a few people that have
Speaker 1: had shoes. But I tell you who could get a
Speaker 1: shoe sitting in Miglocta.
Speaker 2: She has it all. She has it all, yeah, I
Speaker 2: mean sometimes that's what she has what it takes to sell.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and she's a safe, she's a safe you know
Speaker 4: what I mean.
Speaker 2: Yes, Yeah, she's safe.
Speaker 4: You don't have to worry about nothing. You don't have
Speaker 4: to worry about it saying nothing the crazy and safe.
Speaker 4: And she's marketable. She's marketable. And she didn't even open
Speaker 4: the damn mouth. She don't even talk much. She's marketable,
Speaker 4: oh Joe.
Speaker 1: But you know when it comes when it comes to women,
Speaker 1: they have to have a certain look.
Speaker 2: She got it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, she got to be able to produce. She's a prodigy.
Speaker 1: She was fifteen, sixteen years old. We knew about it
Speaker 1: when she was running down girls in high school. She
Speaker 1: goes to college for a.
Speaker 4: Year, goes pro she had she she is a complete package,
Speaker 4: clean cut.
Speaker 2: I'm talking about nothing.
Speaker 1: If you want to draw up, say I want a
Speaker 1: woman athlete, I want a female athlete, sende mclackler. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it is what it is, though, Joe. I mean I wish,
Speaker 1: I wish it was something I could tell him different,
Speaker 1: but it's not.
Speaker 4: Somebody in chat say I should get I should get
Speaker 4: a shoe deal, a shoe deal talking about a shoe
Speaker 4: called the cap, the cap and dunks because I'm always
Speaker 4: lying there, Hey, that was funny.
Speaker 2: That was funny. Listen, anything I say is not lies.
Speaker 4: These are all life experiences and things that I know
Speaker 4: I'm capable of, capable of doing.
Speaker 2: And you'll see that was funny. All right.
Speaker 1: Yesterday we had a conversation about comments Dion Maje wore
Speaker 1: the CBS reporter. Unfortunately, we had technical difficulties and we
Speaker 1: weren't able to play the sound and that created computer.
Speaker 1: Let's take a listen to the sound and then we'll
Speaker 1: talk about it afterwards.
Speaker 2: Next yeay.
Speaker 3: Eric Kristen sent with CBS Sports Colorado Tyler.
Speaker 5: I'm not doing nothing with CBS. Next question. It is
Speaker 5: above that you got none to do with you. I
Speaker 5: got love for you, I appreciate, respect you, and got
Speaker 5: none to.
Speaker 2: Do with you.
Speaker 5: They know what they did.
Speaker 2: I'm here in Denver, not national.
Speaker 5: You are who you are, CBS, CBS, all right with you.
Speaker 5: I respect you, just why I told you that I'm
Speaker 5: looking at you and now as a man, I respect you.
Speaker 5: I got love for you.
Speaker 2: But what they did was foul. Well what what? What?
Speaker 2: What happened that?
Speaker 1: Back in July, CBS sports dot Com ranked Prime as
Speaker 1: one of the worst Power Conferences coaches in the country.
Speaker 1: Prime was ranked second worst in the conference, but behind
Speaker 1: Kenny Dillingham at Arizona State, and he was ranked sixty
Speaker 1: first out of coaches at the FBS left HU. This
Speaker 1: is new to time. Time is never time. Since he
Speaker 1: been playing sports, have always been the best, always been
Speaker 1: told he was the best.
Speaker 2: For the first time, He's not the best. I mean
Speaker 2: the guy that. I mean, the guy that was asking
Speaker 2: the question didn't say that.
Speaker 1: He just happens to work, So I guess he has
Speaker 1: a blanket for CBS.
Speaker 2: And now what we have a question.
Speaker 4: Are we sure the reason that he didn't want to
Speaker 4: talk to the affiliate that was a part of CBS.
Speaker 4: Are we sure the reason why is based on the
Speaker 4: rankings that were put out in July?
Speaker 2: Yeah? Okay, okay, yeah, I don't. I don't.
Speaker 4: I don't know about that. Hey, well we got it.
Speaker 4: We got a new year coming up. Now, we got
Speaker 4: we got we got a new year coming up.
Speaker 2: So it's only his only one. There's only one way
Speaker 2: to change that. We can't get mad. Yeah.
Speaker 1: If somebody say, of all athletes that do sports podcasts,
Speaker 1: night Cap might be the fiftieth best, what well, they're
Speaker 1: not wanting They're not top ten, they might be No.
Speaker 2: Fifty.
Speaker 4: Not shure, we we top three. I don't care what
Speaker 4: nobody say. They got me fucked up.
Speaker 1: But the thing is is that that's somebody's opinion.
Speaker 2: I can what you what people think that we can't
Speaker 2: do it? Think about that. We just keep doing we
Speaker 2: do time, just have to keep coaching.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, he can't And he I mean, he tell
Speaker 1: the guys block out the noise, drown out the noise, time,
Speaker 1: go put together a nine to three or ten and
Speaker 1: two season.
Speaker 2: That that what they've been saying.
Speaker 1: He time is bit time has always been in the life,
Speaker 1: so he knows people have always tried to take the solo.
Speaker 2: Shots at it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they called himselfish when he tried to help the
Speaker 1: Braves win a title, and he was also playing for
Speaker 1: the Falcons, so they've always tried to put label him
Speaker 1: as such as being selfish. He's supremely confident and rightfully so.
Speaker 1: I mean to play to play professional football, excuse me,
Speaker 1: and to be the best at something and play baseball. Hey,
Speaker 1: you you hear a lot of people saying that, oh,
Speaker 1: I can play basketball. Players say they can play football.
Speaker 1: You ain't heard them say they're gonna hit damn hundred
Speaker 1: minds our fans all no, sir, and talk at the
Speaker 1: time as a guy that played both the highest you
Speaker 1: can play is MLB and NFA, right, he said it
Speaker 1: didn't even close. He said they are also article two
Speaker 1: days ago that probably added the prime frustration. The handline
Speaker 1: of the article Shiloh Santas file bankruptcy Colorado DB's debt
Speaker 1: stem from allegedly assaulting a security guard in twenty fifteen.
Speaker 4: That's a chess move, you know what that is. I
Speaker 4: ain't gotta explain it to you.

Speaker 1: Jared Jones has clarified his recent comments regarding CD Lamban's
Speaker 1: lack of emergency to come to terms on a contract
Speaker 1: extension with the star receiver. Jared said, I think I
Speaker 1: got in trouble the other day when I said, look,
Speaker 1: we're not urgent about CD. Oh you think you think
Speaker 1: you got in trouble, because if you didn't think you
Speaker 1: got in trouble, you wouldn't be adressing it right now.
Speaker 1: But anyway, well, no one appreciates CD being on the
Speaker 1: field more than I do. But let me say this,
Speaker 1: he wouldn't be taking a snap out here today if
Speaker 1: he had been here.
Speaker 2: Stop it. You know what the fuck so you mean
Speaker 2: to tell me?
Speaker 1: If CD Lamb had showed up, you were gonna say, CD,
Speaker 1: don't you take no snap until we get your contract done.
Speaker 4: You see, I think I think he meant as far
Speaker 4: as playing right, he wouldn't be playing in the preseason.
Speaker 2: No pract oh practicing. Oh oh okay, okay, okay.
Speaker 4: Are you saying he gonna be holding me in? I mean
Speaker 4: Jamar Jamar showed up. You see, he ain't pre practice
Speaker 4: yet though.
Speaker 2: You holding me in?
Speaker 4: But Jerry, Jerry, every time, every time the mouth putting
Speaker 4: them in front of the cameras, it's unnecessary.
Speaker 2: You know what you're saying, You're well aware of what
Speaker 2: you're saying.
Speaker 4: Would why would you even utter that, knowing you have
Speaker 4: a player that would like his money, which is well
Speaker 4: deserved based on the numbers and the production that he's
Speaker 4: put in for your team, Why even say that as
Speaker 4: an owner? It's not urgent and you know he fighting
Speaker 4: for his money. Who do you think is going through
Speaker 4: CD the head? Well, damn, that's how we feel, Okay,
Speaker 4: bet I told y'all, I told you no, I won't
Speaker 4: be surprised to see the asked for a trade so that, oh.
Speaker 1: Dak won't be there this afternoon. It's reported that Dak
Speaker 1: tweak his ankle. That's why he was not there. And
Speaker 1: so the bottom line is no, there's no urgency. Now
Speaker 1: understand the completely the ans that's happening. And when you're
Speaker 1: anxious about it, someone says something you're missed out or not. Well, CD,
Speaker 1: you're missed okay, but you're not missed out here competing
Speaker 1: and that doesn't put any pressure in any place enough, No, CD,
Speaker 1: don't worry about you could let them gain Guess what
Speaker 1: in ninety three there was no urgency to get no
Speaker 1: deal done.
Speaker 2: And guess what happened? They started owing to I bet
Speaker 2: they pay the image. Meth didn't like that. You sure did.
Speaker 4: Oh so this is an ongoing thing, yes, oh man? Okay, okay,
Speaker 4: so that's just that's just how he operates. Okay, I
Speaker 4: understand with certain ones, but why you do it with
Speaker 4: the good ones?
Speaker 2: That don't make no sense?
Speaker 4: He did it with the team, he did it with dead,
Speaker 4: he did it with Zeke. So what's he trying to prove?
Speaker 4: What statement is he trying to mean?
Speaker 1: What?
Speaker 2: What's the end goal? What's the end goal? What do
Speaker 2: you what are you trying to say? I don't want
Speaker 2: to win no more Super Bowls? I think that's what
Speaker 2: he's trying to say. Hout your Night's time for our
Speaker 2: last segment of the day. It's Q and eight. What
Speaker 2: the role would you? Boy? It's the way you said it,
Speaker 2: That's what he said. He tried to Jacoba what I'm saying?
Speaker 2: What up? Fucking o? Joe?
Speaker 1: Do you think men winning goal will lead to more
Speaker 1: confidence and better casons for each player?
Speaker 2: Olympic nightcap for the Dove, what do you think? Was
Speaker 2: a question?
Speaker 1: She says, Do you think man winning goal would lead
Speaker 1: to more confidence and a better season for each player.
Speaker 2: Olympic nightcap for the Dove for the Dove. Yeah, I
Speaker 2: think so. I think so.
Speaker 4: The motivation will still be that regardless of winning goal
Speaker 4: or not, because when you're playing on the highest level,
Speaker 4: obviously represent your country, and you're playing at your regular job,
Speaker 4: your day job, you're playing for not only for the
Speaker 4: team you play for, but you're also playing for the
Speaker 4: name on the back of your jersey. So I think
Speaker 4: the motivation will already be there, and you're in client
Speaker 4: to always plays as well as you possibly can, you
Speaker 4: know so, And I don't think it would change much.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I think the thing is for those
Speaker 1: guys they ever got over there, they're trying to get better.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, guys want to be the phrase of the NBA.
Speaker 1: Guys got three hundred and two hundred million dollar content
Speaker 1: to live up to that. You got to live up
Speaker 1: to that. Yeah, you got five and ten and you're
Speaker 1: trying to get better. There's something guys want to listene.
Speaker 1: I want to see how good I can actually be.
Speaker 1: I want to contend for championships. I want to be
Speaker 1: thought of as the best player in the NBA. I'm
Speaker 1: talking about their few I mean, a man that's already
Speaker 1: told you, a man going.
Speaker 2: Into everybody you don't care who he is.
Speaker 1: Jason Tatum wants to show Jason tATu's come back, Like, Bro,
Speaker 1: that guy that y'all saw sitting on the bench and
Speaker 1: not getting playing time and playing twenty three minutes, that
Speaker 1: is why I am.
Speaker 2: Y'all know me. I'm JT.
Speaker 1: Three time First Team All NBA. That's me, NBA Champ,
Speaker 1: Larry Bird Award winner, that's me. I'm that JT, not
Speaker 1: that guy that y'all saw sitting on the bench.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that ain't me.
Speaker 1: So absolutely, the guys are gonna be gonna be motivated.
Speaker 1: Lebron wants to show Look, Lebron is going into year
Speaker 1: twenty two. Lebron wants to show guys, I'm still at
Speaker 1: the top. I'm still at the top of the food chain.
Speaker 1: I'm still there. Kde wants to say, Hey, y'all know me.

Speaker 1: at Jordan, came back COVID and look with COVID. Covid
Speaker 1: came back, tried.
Speaker 2: To get it. Yeah, Lebron getty, I mean yeah. The
Speaker 2: funny thing.
Speaker 4: The pressure is already on them, regardless of Olympics, Your
Speaker 4: press is already on them.
Speaker 1: Still yes, still was like, y'all forgot y'all. Did y'all
Speaker 1: forget that you're the greatest shooting? Okay, y'all forgot y'all
Speaker 1: talk about them first four game? Y'all forgot y'all forgot
Speaker 1: about o Steff Okay, let me cook something up for y'all.
Speaker 1: He would definitely cook out something. Uh, Bonnie Kirdy, I
Speaker 1: think that's what you say a name. Much love from Maryland,
Speaker 1: Love you both, and night Captain Munich. It has been
Speaker 1: great Olympic run. Thank you. Hopefully everybody enjoyed our coverage
Speaker 1: of the Olympics. Next time, hopefully even in the World
Speaker 1: Championships in twenty five in Tokyo, we'll do a better job.
Speaker 2: I think. I think athletes.
Speaker 1: Seeing how we did this, I think there'll be more
Speaker 1: apt to want to come on and talk and talk
Speaker 1: about their sport because they see the reach that we have,
Speaker 1: oh jump, and so I think we'll have even more
Speaker 1: athletes that come on and talk about their races, about
Speaker 1: other things going on.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 1: I can't make no promises I will ever be able
Speaker 1: to get Sidney mcglock so LEBRONI. So I ain't gonna
Speaker 1: make that promise. But I ain't gonna be from lack
Speaker 1: of tria. They ain't gonna be for lack of tried now.
Speaker 1: I mean even she'll just come on to say, hey
Speaker 1: guys and go on, we're gonna get something. We're gonna
Speaker 1: get something. We're gonna get something. Okay, We're gonna get something.
Speaker 1: Scott's Sorenson said, what do you think about prospects for
Speaker 1: LA living in twenty twenty eight.
Speaker 2: With the home field advantage?
Speaker 1: Man, I remember how we they how we went crazy
Speaker 1: in eighty four. I was there, I was there. I
Speaker 1: would them the boxing. I mean I think we won.
Speaker 1: I think there was twelve medals, twelve weight classes. I
Speaker 1: think we won like ten goals or silver labrong. We
Speaker 1: did we damn there did what?
Speaker 5: What?
Speaker 1: What the Chinese did and died where they swept the
Speaker 1: gold medals and table tennis.
Speaker 2: They swept table tennis I was so, oh yeah, I
Speaker 2: do think. I think.
Speaker 1: You know, guys, obviously everybody fights harder in their own backyard.
Speaker 1: Uh So I'm I'm I'm super excited. I'm going. I
Speaker 1: don't give damn about no traffic. I'm going. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: see track and field. I'm gonna see a basketball and
Speaker 1: black I'm gonna. I'mst I got I gotta see it.
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, that's what my bucket. You know,
Speaker 1: been to a Super Bowl, been to a World Series
Speaker 1: of Game seven, been to an NBA Finals game. I've
Speaker 1: been to all Star games, you know, Pro Bowl, MLB
Speaker 1: all start, NBA all start. So I've been to a
Speaker 1: lot of things. The Olympics, the Olympics and Wimbledon. They're
Speaker 1: on my bucket list. So, okay, can you explain why
Speaker 1: the four by four and the eight hundred meters runners
Speaker 1: start and stagger lanes and then switch to lane one.
Speaker 1: That seems like they have to cover a little bit
Speaker 1: more ground by switching. Actually, you know they don't, because
Speaker 1: when they start outside, they got to cover distance. But
Speaker 1: you know, they that's why they started outside. You start outside,
Speaker 1: and so the guys on the inside they get it. Hey,
Speaker 1: they get to go. Look, but see the four by
Speaker 1: four is staggered because you got what lanes went through
Speaker 1: at and so it's based on time. So and sometimes
Speaker 1: you get preference. I mean, I think the fastest time
Speaker 1: you get to start, like Carston Warholme when he's always
Speaker 1: normally he gets the fastest time. He loves to start
Speaker 1: in lane set. He loves to start far be damned
Speaker 1: to be into the curtain. And so then and then
Speaker 1: you know they passed it off to the second leg.
Speaker 1: And the second leg I think he has to go
Speaker 1: like they have to go like one hundred meters maybe
Speaker 1: a hundred and fifty meters before they can move move
Speaker 1: over to Laney.
Speaker 2: But that's just that's just the way it's been set up.
Speaker 1: Uh So I'm not so you know what, it's funny
Speaker 1: that you say that, because like when we ran track,
Speaker 1: we never did that. We didn't do that in high
Speaker 1: school when we got the baton in the four by four,
Speaker 1: well we Hey, you jockeying for a position. You look
Speaker 1: at your guy. Okay, your guy, he's back there. You
Speaker 1: might be in the fifth slot, and then all of
Speaker 1: a sudden he come. You try to bump the guy,
Speaker 1: say ob man, come on, brother, you see my guy
Speaker 1: in front, so you jockeying for position.
Speaker 2: But man, both four hundred meters. Look, the women's weren't contested.
Speaker 1: I wish it was a little bit more contested because
Speaker 1: I think they could have got the world record. I mean,
Speaker 1: Sid Sid ran what forty seven to seventy one.
Speaker 2: With no push? What does she run if she pushed?
Speaker 2: If she's pushed like Rob Benjamin, what does she run?
Speaker 2: Ain't no telling. She might go for sub forty.
Speaker 1: Seven, which is it's crazy. It's crazy that I'm even
Speaker 1: saying that. That's I mean, at least she's going low
Speaker 1: forty seven. To think think of a woman that can
Speaker 1: go sub forty seven, but she's going low forty seven
Speaker 1: with push.
Speaker 2: You don't know what a person can do until they're pushed.
Speaker 1: Nobody thought they could run that fast until Usain Boat
Speaker 1: got pushed the first fifty meters.
Speaker 2: And the funny thing is it push. Hell, he had
Speaker 2: to catch the fuck up when you think about it.
Speaker 1: So Hey, Stephen Bass three fourteen said, you're really a
Speaker 1: true black role model. Much love for one of your
Speaker 1: biggest fans, question, have you ever had a friend that
Speaker 1: was close to you as bucket Burns that ended up
Speaker 1: falling out with.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it happens, move on. That was his life. I mean, unfortunately,
Speaker 2: it is. It is, it is, but it's it's not the.
Speaker 1: End of the world, or Joe. I didn't come in
Speaker 1: the world with with with anybody. I'm I'm I'm gonna
Speaker 1: leave out of it by myself. But you know, it's
Speaker 1: it's unfortunate because when you close someone and you know
Speaker 1: you've been to their home, they've been in yours, and
Speaker 1: you've extended other Yeah yeah, yeah, but you know what,
Speaker 1: O Joe, things happen. Yeah, I'm not the first. I
Speaker 1: won't be the last. I mean there are people that
Speaker 1: have had people that have been you know, they've been
Speaker 1: close with thirty forty years. But it's all good. I
Speaker 1: don't I don't think about the friends that I that
Speaker 1: I don't have anymore. I just worry about the free Yeah.
Speaker 1: So bucket Burns, guys that I'm cool with now, I'm good.
Speaker 1: It happens, but it's not the end of the world.
Speaker 2: Oh Joe. Yeah, this concludes.
