Tyreek 54 00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:50,680 Speaker 1: Hill just won the men's sixty meter Master's indoor championship. 55 00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:53,880 Speaker 1: All right, you know they let anybody get into the 56 00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:56,480 Speaker 1: master's right, They like all comers, come on, come on, 57 00:02:57,080 --> 00:03:00,760 Speaker 1: And he went in this dude right a six point 58 00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:04,360 Speaker 1: seven seconds right, ran in sixty seven. Y'all don't have 59 00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:06,360 Speaker 1: reference for that. A lot of people don't know track 60 00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:09,000 Speaker 1: like that. It's six point seven fast. Yeah, it's fast, 61 00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:13,919 Speaker 1: but it's football fast running track. It ain't track fast 62 00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:17,239 Speaker 1: running track. Let me tell you why Hills Time puts 63 00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:21,280 Speaker 1: him outside this year's I'm talking about this year, would 64 00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:26,040 Speaker 1: us in March thirteenth, March thirteenth, this year's top two 65 00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:29,520 Speaker 1: hundred men in the event, y'all hear what I'm saying. 66 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:33,280 Speaker 1: As fast as Tyreek Hill is fastest due in the NFL, 67 00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:35,400 Speaker 1: I would say, right, I put my bottom dollar on that, 68 00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:40,400 Speaker 1: he's not even top two hundred in track in field? 69 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:42,600 Speaker 1: All right, Now, he's what he said after the race, 70 00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:45,120 Speaker 1: after he smoked everybody in that race in that field, 71 00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:48,640 Speaker 1: never racing again, had me out there looking wild, He'll 72 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:51,880 Speaker 1: posted to his Twitter account after the race, now being 73 00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:55,720 Speaker 1: regarded as the fastest player in the NFL and still 74 00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:59,160 Speaker 1: winning a race, but realizing, oh, if this race was 75 00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:02,760 Speaker 1: the top dogs, I would be two hundred and something 76 00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:05,280 Speaker 1: to place like you would have got two hundred and 77 00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:10,320 Speaker 1: twelfth place Tyreek Hill. And I just always love this conversation. 78 00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:16,279 Speaker 1: Track fast versus football fast. There's no comparing. And I 79 00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:20,120 Speaker 1: ran track and I played football. I did both. I 80 00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:22,840 Speaker 1: do have some expertise in this. When you run track, 81 00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:25,240 Speaker 1: that's all you're doing is running, right. When you play 82 00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:27,560 Speaker 1: football and you run. That's just a part of what 83 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:30,080 Speaker 1: you're doing. And a lot of times in football you 84 00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:32,400 Speaker 1: don't even run your fastest, right, So when you see 85 00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:35,960 Speaker 1: somebody super fast in football, immediately you imagine that guy 86 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:40,120 Speaker 1: just running track exclusively. You basically take down all of 87 00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:43,039 Speaker 1: those legos because he has to be fast in football, 88 00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:45,400 Speaker 1: he has to be strong, he has to be nimble, 89 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:48,880 Speaker 1: he has to be aggressive. All that. You just reduce 90 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:53,080 Speaker 1: it to one thing and say fast, get over here. 91 00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:58,839 Speaker 1: Event with a sport that all they care about is fast, 92 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:02,120 Speaker 1: it ain't no comparing. Not a single dude in football 93 00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:04,000 Speaker 1: gonna do a damn thing and track. It just doesn't 94 00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:06,880 Speaker 1: have that way. But trap dudes can come to football. 95 00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:11,479 Speaker 1: You can fall down that pyramid of athleticism and come 96 00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:14,599 Speaker 1: to football. So it just reminded me of a few things. 97 00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:18,200 Speaker 1: I gotta give y'all with my eyes. The fastest dude 98 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:20,320 Speaker 1: I ever saw. Now, of course I've seen you same 99 00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:22,640 Speaker 1: boat run blah blah blah, But that's not a fun story. 100 00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:24,559 Speaker 1: Let me get your fun story. Like somebody I knew 101 00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:30,680 Speaker 1: google Obie More, this dude was faster than you, same 102 00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:33,919 Speaker 1: boat all the way through high school and he was 103 00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:37,160 Speaker 1: a sophomore I want to say maybe a junior in 104 00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:42,640 Speaker 1: high school running in the Olympics. Olympic trials, Obie Moore 105 00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:45,400 Speaker 1: was sick, end up getting hurt, and once he got 106 00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:47,719 Speaker 1: hurt the first time, he got hurt again, got hurt again. 107 00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:50,919 Speaker 1: Then it started affect him mentally. Never got back. He 108 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:54,040 Speaker 1: kept trying, but never got back. But he was on 109 00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:57,920 Speaker 1: my track team and he set every age group record 110 00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:01,960 Speaker 1: from like the hundred allway to the mile. Did y'all 111 00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:03,680 Speaker 1: hear me? Of course a lot of those records has 112 00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:06,240 Speaker 1: been broken, but not all of them. The hundred to 113 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:09,760 Speaker 1: the mile. The dude would win races and set records. 114 00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:13,080 Speaker 1: Sickest dude I've ever seen with my eyes connecting other 115 00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:16,200 Speaker 1: than the professionals of course.

I've never seen the film, 140 00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:30,560 Speaker 1: but that is a legendary story that lives in the the 141 00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:33,560 Speaker 1: NFL locker rooms till this day. I don't like to 142 00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:37,320 Speaker 1: pile on anybody right. At the same time, this story 143 00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:41,040 Speaker 1: just keeps evolving and every layer to me is educational 144 00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:43,320 Speaker 1: at the least, or it could be one of those 145 00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:46,240 Speaker 1: things that you learned from if you're just looking at 146 00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:50,240 Speaker 1: John Morant like, Wow, I'm your biggest supporter, But damn dog, 147 00:07:50,640 --> 00:07:53,200 Speaker 1: what is going on?

But this is 150 00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:03,520 Speaker 1: a good range for John Moran. Coca Cola just pulled 151 00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:08,160 Speaker 1: Job Morants Power Aid ads. Wow. Co Cola has pulled 152 00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:12,760 Speaker 1: his ads for Power Aid amid a suspension. Companies remove 153 00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:16,800 Speaker 1: all the marketing material from job and the social media 154 00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:20,120 Speaker 1: when he flashed a gun. Now he was set to 155 00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:25,360 Speaker 1: market a ten million dollar campaign this year with the 156 00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:30,920 Speaker 1: first national television ad to air on March fourteenth tomorrow. However, 157 00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:35,320 Speaker 1: after that Instagram and the gun pulled all of that 158 00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:38,960 Speaker 1: and the strip club photos. Stephen Jackson waited in on this. 159 00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:41,120 Speaker 1: I love this part. Let's talk to it with his 160 00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:44,480 Speaker 1: thoughts about it. After seeing that, John Moran went to 161 00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:48,079 Speaker 1: the strip club and they said he dropped fifty thousand 162 00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:52,200 Speaker 1: dollars according to the New York Posts. All right, he said, 163 00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:55,840 Speaker 1: if anybody from my era that's trying to talk down 164 00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:58,000 Speaker 1: on Job. Eighty percent of us would have been in 165 00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:01,280 Speaker 1: the media or if we played in the out chasing era, basically, 166 00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:03,760 Speaker 1: we would have been in trouble like Job. Jackson expressed 167 00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:06,480 Speaker 1: that in his video. Interesting, he said, because all of 168 00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:09,600 Speaker 1: us was partying in the strip clubs doing the same 169 00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:16,080 Speaker 1: job was doing and ten times worse. Interesting. I want 170 00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:18,679 Speaker 1: to go there, and I've been posed with this question 171 00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:21,800 Speaker 1: a thousand times. What happened to ourselves? What would have 172 00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:25,319 Speaker 1: happened if social media was around when you played the 173 00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:26,920 Speaker 1: good of it? And I would have been like Dog, 174 00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:29,000 Speaker 1: I would have had millions and millions of followers because 175 00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:32,000 Speaker 1: I was a fool, like I lived my life outwardly, 176 00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:34,480 Speaker 1: like I let everybody see my life. I had the 177 00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:37,720 Speaker 1: biggest parties. I used to get articles written about events. 178 00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:41,160 Speaker 1: I would throw out DJ I'm DJ for Outcasts. You 179 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:43,880 Speaker 1: think that ain't gonna pop on Instagram when I'm playing 180 00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:48,600 Speaker 1: for the Chargers, all that kind of stuff, Kanye West, etc. However, 181 00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:51,920 Speaker 1: there was a flip side to that conversation as well, like, damn, 182 00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:56,120 Speaker 1: would they had caught me slipping? And I always say yes, 183 00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:59,199 Speaker 1: and then I get slapped in the head. By the 184 00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:03,560 Speaker 1: fact that hold on. In every era, there's a bell 185 00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:07,319 Speaker 1: curve in terms of how you are acting, in terms 186 00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:11,040 Speaker 1: of your responsibility be real, and I think that Stephen 187 00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:13,320 Speaker 1: got this one off just a little bit. The bell 188 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:17,400 Speaker 1: curve is eighty ten ten. Eighty percent of the people 189 00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:20,760 Speaker 1: will be just fine. Eighty percent of the athletes would 190 00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:23,960 Speaker 1: just go ball, go home, whatever that may be, stay 191 00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:27,160 Speaker 1: out of the media's eye in a negative way. Ten 192 00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:29,760 Speaker 1: percent will be good. He two shoes right, like, oh 193 00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:32,439 Speaker 1: my god, media darlings, we love this guy. This guy 194 00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:34,960 Speaker 1: could do no wrong. And then there's gonna be ten 195 00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:38,920 Speaker 1: percent that you always talking about can't get right. It 196 00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:43,679 Speaker 1: seems like every era has been that way, including this era. Right, 197 00:10:44,040 --> 00:10:46,400 Speaker 1: you can say eighty percent of the guys, Let's say 198 00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:50,360 Speaker 1: s Sga right, who talks about SGA right, Shane Gil 199 00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:53,080 Speaker 1: just Alexander, nobody talks about him. Really, he just balls 200 00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:56,320 Speaker 1: all right, He's in the eighty percent. Then there's a 201 00:10:56,360 --> 00:10:59,000 Speaker 1: ten percent that could do no wrongest things like I 202 00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:01,640 Speaker 1: guess Steph Curry is something like, oh my god, we 203 00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:04,199 Speaker 1: love you, Steph. We live next door the year or 204 00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:06,600 Speaker 1: the guy next door, right, And then there's now a 205 00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:09,440 Speaker 1: ten percent that John morand has become the poster child 206 00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:11,680 Speaker 1: of that. It just seems like they can't get right. 207 00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:14,600 Speaker 1: But whether that the era before too, we've seen that 208 00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:17,280 Speaker 1: all the way through. You named the names, you know 209 00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:21,440 Speaker 1: what bucket they existed in, right, So I disagree with 210 00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:24,520 Speaker 1: Stephen in that respect. And when I played, I was 211 00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:28,600 Speaker 1: a fool. But what kept me in line were the rules, 212 00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:32,840 Speaker 1: were the restrictions, were the borders, were the parameters. And 213 00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:36,120 Speaker 1: I was a fool, but I didn't cross that line 214 00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:40,000 Speaker 1: or I didn't get caught. Stephen Jackson crossed that line 215 00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:43,480 Speaker 1: different incidents and got caught right, But there were other 216 00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:46,240 Speaker 1: guys who like Stephen even a minute. I was around 217 00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:48,600 Speaker 1: a gang of us that acted like that. But how 218 00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:51,120 Speaker 1: can we all don't have the same reputation as you see? 219 00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:52,959 Speaker 1: This is why I love this show because I love 220 00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:55,840 Speaker 1: Stephen Jackson. That's my dog. And he said something that 221 00:11:55,880 --> 00:11:59,199 Speaker 1: we all gnawed at the first listen, like, yeah, he right, 222 00:11:59,400 --> 00:12:01,640 Speaker 1: It was a lot to knuckleheads. But how come all 223 00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:04,400 Speaker 1: those knuckleheads don't have the same reputation? How come all 224 00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:08,439 Speaker 1: those knuckleheads didn't get caught. There's something about knowing what 225 00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:11,640 Speaker 1: you can't do which makes a lot of people, way 226 00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:14,720 Speaker 1: more than you think know what to do. And that's 227 00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:17,120 Speaker 1: how it was. I'm going to the line, but am 228 00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:19,880 Speaker 1: I going to cross the line? Hell now? And I 229 00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:25,719 Speaker 1: wasn't alone. So today's NBA, today's NFL, them dudes act up. 230 00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:28,120 Speaker 1: I know a lot of those active players. They act up. 231 00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:32,800 Speaker 1: But then there's a guy who acts even crazier than him. 232 00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:35,839 Speaker 1: And that's the one that gets caught up. Right, nine 233 00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:38,520 Speaker 1: times out of ten is just because you did too much. 234 00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:41,880 Speaker 1: The other time is maybe you got set up. Maybe hey, 235 00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:44,120 Speaker 1: it was just a bad luck of the draw that day. 236 00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:48,040 Speaker 1: But most of the time you habitually step over that line. 237 00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:52,520 Speaker 1: Charlie Murphy right, habitual line stepper, line stepper. Hey, doll, 238 00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:56,680 Speaker 1: you better slow down. I always tell people this. The 239 00:12:56,920 --> 00:13:00,720 Speaker 1: universe whispers before it yells, I will be a while. 240 00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:02,760 Speaker 1: Isn't one day, But let me get into it real quick. 241 00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:06,880 Speaker 1: The universe whispers before yales. How many times you ever 242 00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:11,520 Speaker 1: got caught doing something? Now reverse engineer that go backwards. 243 00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:16,120 Speaker 1: You kind of got some some hints, you kind of 244 00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:20,040 Speaker 1: got some whispers, You got some reminders like, hey, let 245 00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:22,880 Speaker 1: me hip you to this chill out, whatever it may 246 00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:25,440 Speaker 1: have been, and you just blew past that stop sign. Right, 247 00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:27,800 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go past that stop sign, that stop sign, 248 00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:32,440 Speaker 1: and then why that's when the universe yales. I'm just saying, 249 00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:35,280 Speaker 1: with this situation, you can look how it goes. John 250 00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:40,080 Speaker 1: Moran gets caught with the incident and the Strip Club. Now, 251 00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:42,599 Speaker 1: but you go back before the Strip Club, it was 252 00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:45,599 Speaker 1: John Moran having issues with his mom and at the 253 00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:48,320 Speaker 1: foot locker or whatever it may be. And finish line 254 00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:50,960 Speaker 1: it was and then John Moran went to our sisters 255 00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:53,360 Speaker 1: volleyball game that John Moran had an issue with a 256 00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:56,400 Speaker 1: little kid on the court as house. You see all 257 00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:59,880 Speaker 1: those whispers that we didn't even hear about. But when 258 00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:03,280 Speaker 1: the universe start yelling, all of a sudden, all those 259 00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:07,679 Speaker 1: whispers start getting counted up and tallied. Just a reminder 260 00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:10,320 Speaker 1: to all of us, man, live your life. We know 261 00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:13,320 Speaker 1: the rules, we know the borders. Do your damn best 262 00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:15,800 Speaker 1: to have as much fun as you can within them. 263 00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:18,480 Speaker 1: I had a ball yesterday at that day party didn't 264 00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:21,040 Speaker 1: cross the line. I told that fine girl to get 265 00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:24,560 Speaker 1: up faster than Tyree Hill could because if not, all 266 00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:26,760 Speaker 1: the universe is gonna be yelling at your boy, and 267 00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:30,040 Speaker 1: I wouldn't be here today, let's go to green Bay. 268 00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:32,200 Speaker 1: I know I'm with y'all. Let's not go to green Bay, 269 00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:34,280 Speaker 1: but let's talk about a story from green Bay. Who 270 00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:36,400 Speaker 1: the hell wants to go to green Back? Now you agreement? 271 00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:41,440 Speaker 1: Want to be agreea Mark Murphy on Aaron Rodgers quote 272 00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:45,600 Speaker 1: very few players played for only one team? Oh he 273 00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:48,840 Speaker 1: thought he said something there, dumbfoo. We know, all right, 274 00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:51,480 Speaker 1: here's another thing. And then you get the ellipses. I 275 00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:53,080 Speaker 1: love when I read stories, and then you get the 276 00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:55,680 Speaker 1: ellipses that means we're cutting up all this junk. He 277 00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:58,760 Speaker 1: ain't talking about nothing, whatever, whatever? Whatever? Did they get 278 00:14:58,760 --> 00:15:05,000 Speaker 1: to this part? Aaron had a great career here? Oh? 279 00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:08,320 Speaker 1: What does that mean? Did y'all catch that fastest? I 280 00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:11,600 Speaker 1: did too? What was that third grade? Or something? Hasn't had? 281 00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:13,920 Speaker 1: And all that present part of simples and all that? 282 00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:15,440 Speaker 1: I forgot all that, but I just know how to 283 00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:17,200 Speaker 1: use it most of the time, not even all the time. 284 00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:24,320 Speaker 1: Aaron had had stop the music, DJ. You said, had 285 00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:26,920 Speaker 1: a great career? Here? Is he leaking oil? Is he 286 00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:29,480 Speaker 1: leaking what he really knows but doesn't want to say 287 00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:33,240 Speaker 1: because he just said it? Aaron had a great career here? Now, 288 00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:38,520 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers also chimed in, Stay tuned some more ellipses 289 00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:41,280 Speaker 1: whatever he ain't talking about nothing. Then it says it 290 00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:44,800 Speaker 1: won't be long a decision. Now. Bertie told me that 291 00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:47,480 Speaker 1: knows Aaron Rodgers. That works out with Aaron Rodgers. It's 292 00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:49,920 Speaker 1: all I can tell you before I get my informant, 293 00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:54,200 Speaker 1: my source in trouble. He told me there is a 294 00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:58,440 Speaker 1: deal on the table from the Jets that is hell attempting. 295 00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:01,720 Speaker 1: But at the same time, it's basically those two decisions. 296 00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:04,960 Speaker 1: And I heard that Aaron don't even really want to 297 00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:07,520 Speaker 1: play for the Jets. That's like his second choice. His 298 00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:10,560 Speaker 1: first choice was Miami, but then they picked up two 299 00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:13,280 Speaker 1: a fifth year option. So therefore he's like, all right, 300 00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:15,240 Speaker 1: do I really want to go to to my third option? 301 00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:17,880 Speaker 1: Because green Bay still fits in there just because of 302 00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:20,200 Speaker 1: how long you've been there in your tenure, right, your 303 00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:24,480 Speaker 1: legacy will be pure staying in Green Bay. But that's 304 00:16:24,520 --> 00:16:27,240 Speaker 1: what I heard. I don't know if that's conjecture, rumors, 305 00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:31,040 Speaker 1: it's just some informed information, if you can say that, right. 306 00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:34,840 Speaker 1: So the real question is is this the end for 307 00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:39,240 Speaker 1: Aaron Roses in Green Bay? Let's talk about the dynamics 308 00:16:39,240 --> 00:16:42,280 Speaker 1: and the politics that played first that actually supports what 309 00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:46,720 Speaker 1: Mark Murphy said why very few players played for only 310 00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:49,960 Speaker 1: one team. I remember when I was drafted to the 311 00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:53,680 Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills and I looked around that locker room. Jim 312 00:16:53,800 --> 00:16:56,160 Speaker 1: Kelly just retired, just retire. He didn't want me to 313 00:16:56,160 --> 00:16:58,320 Speaker 1: sacclement practice. He's like, I'm out while he coming. I 314 00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:01,360 Speaker 1: don't want that in problem. You're right. So then it 315 00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:08,120 Speaker 1: was Andre Reid, Thurman Thomas, and Bruce Smith. Those were 316 00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:12,080 Speaker 1: our guys, right, And I was like, wow, Now I 317 00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:15,600 Speaker 1: don't know where Andre went after Buffalo, if anywhere, I 318 00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:19,000 Speaker 1: don't remember that. Y'all could help me. But thurmant left, 319 00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:25,320 Speaker 1: Bruce left, and I was like, this is a business. 320 00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:27,760 Speaker 1: How in the hell do you get rid of those guys? 321 00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:30,960 Speaker 1: And then they went to other places. Thurman in Miami, 322 00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:34,320 Speaker 1: I remember he played well. Bruce and Washington balled out 323 00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:36,720 Speaker 1: set the sack record there, and I was like, damn 324 00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:39,080 Speaker 1: we get rid of the greats Oh, I don't stand 325 00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:42,160 Speaker 1: a damn chance, right, because of the dynamics that play 326 00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:46,680 Speaker 1: Never forget in football, all sports, but football. Let's talk 327 00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:51,359 Speaker 1: that in particular. Oh, they are drafting, they are looking 328 00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:56,040 Speaker 1: at free agents every single second of the day to 329 00:17:56,240 --> 00:17:58,560 Speaker 1: not come and add them to the team, but to 330 00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:03,359 Speaker 1: replace your ass, no matter who you are. I remember 331 00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:05,439 Speaker 1: I got drafted, and I was so pumped, and I'm 332 00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:08,520 Speaker 1: reading all the Buffalo News articles and collecting them. Damn, 333 00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:10,920 Speaker 1: this is all. I'm so old. I had to cut 334 00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:13,840 Speaker 1: out articles and put them in a photo album and 335 00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:17,280 Speaker 1: I did not have it somewhere now internet clip pasted 336 00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:20,879 Speaker 1: cutting paste. I have clips, and one of them hurt me. 337 00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:24,359 Speaker 1: Actually it was Bruce Smith and Andre Reid Thermat Thomas 338 00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:27,640 Speaker 1: because they drafted me a d n antoine Smith, who 339 00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:31,119 Speaker 1: was a running back and a peerless price. They drafted 340 00:18:31,160 --> 00:18:34,800 Speaker 1: him the next year as a receiver. And that article said, 341 00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:38,560 Speaker 1: those guys weren't happy we were drafted. It wasn't personal. 342 00:18:38,840 --> 00:18:40,159 Speaker 1: It was just the fact that they were like, yo, 343 00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:42,399 Speaker 1: they're trying to replace us, which was true, which we 344 00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:45,560 Speaker 1: all did, and I was like, damn, I wanted one 345 00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:48,600 Speaker 1: of those big old veteran hugs from those guys. Not that, 346 00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:52,160 Speaker 1: but that was just them addressing the politics at play. 347 00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:55,160 Speaker 1: Let me tell you a story that really hit me. 348 00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:58,200 Speaker 1: When I was in San Diego. We've all heard of 349 00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:00,119 Speaker 1: the war room, right, and that's where they put at 350 00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:04,080 Speaker 1: all of the prospects, all of the collegiate athletes, and 351 00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:07,680 Speaker 1: that's where we're gonna draft number one, Bryce Young, number 352 00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:10,439 Speaker 1: two CJ. Strout Right. We've all heard of that and 353 00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:13,160 Speaker 1: even got glimpses into the war room. Let me tell 354 00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:15,680 Speaker 1: you what happened when I made a wrong turn up 355 00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:19,480 Speaker 1: on the executive level in the Chargers facility. So I'm 356 00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:22,000 Speaker 1: looking up there. I mean, I'm feeling good about myself 357 00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:24,360 Speaker 1: to the point where you go around the executives when 358 00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:27,000 Speaker 1: it's not practice time, you feel good about yourself. You know, 359 00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:29,879 Speaker 1: you're bawling, right. So I'm in that place, that sliver 360 00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:32,880 Speaker 1: slither of life where I'm just like, man, y'all can't 361 00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:34,320 Speaker 1: mess with me. I like coming up here and just 362 00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:38,199 Speaker 1: mess with y'all. And I remember looking in one of 363 00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:42,440 Speaker 1: the rooms, just like open the door for whatever random reason, 364 00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:45,320 Speaker 1: and I saw those slots, you know, the war room 365 00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:48,040 Speaker 1: slots got the names on them that it could easily replace. 366 00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:51,800 Speaker 1: And I saw the slots. But when I looked at 367 00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:54,840 Speaker 1: the slots, I couldn't read them all. But I saw 368 00:19:55,080 --> 00:19:58,160 Speaker 1: one of them and I saw a way uptop. Guess 369 00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:01,720 Speaker 1: what it said, now, Drew Breezes our quarterback, Doug Flute's 370 00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:05,120 Speaker 1: there or whatever. Guess what it said. It didn't say 371 00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:10,720 Speaker 1: some collegiate quarterback. It didn't say some collegiate prospect. That 372 00:20:11,080 --> 00:20:16,240 Speaker 1: suckers said Peyton Manning. And I was like, why are 373 00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:20,240 Speaker 1: the San Diego Chargers having Peyton Manning on a war 374 00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:23,399 Speaker 1: room board? Not a draft board, just a war room board. 375 00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:25,920 Speaker 1: Somebody comes to grab me, one of the security or 376 00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:27,760 Speaker 1: the assistant. It was all, Marcia, what are you doing? 377 00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:29,359 Speaker 1: It didn't get out of there, and just lapped it 378 00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:32,400 Speaker 1: off and then we went on our merry way. What 379 00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:35,720 Speaker 1: I learned from that room is that is the war 380 00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:40,160 Speaker 1: room where they're looking at all the active NFL players 381 00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:45,440 Speaker 1: and potential free agents. Just like like Jayla Ramsey got 382 00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:49,320 Speaker 1: traded to the Miami Dolphins. They had a board up 383 00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:54,720 Speaker 1: of potential drafts one and then another one of free 384 00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:58,840 Speaker 1: agents two, or trade partners three, or active players for 385 00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:02,479 Speaker 1: they got them and boards up. Meanwhile, they're going out 386 00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:05,080 Speaker 1: there at practice every day saying great job, great job, 387 00:21:05,119 --> 00:21:07,119 Speaker 1: great job. Then they go upstairs they'd be like, yo, 388 00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:08,920 Speaker 1: we gotta get rid of this dude, or we're gonna 389 00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:10,480 Speaker 1: have to go grab him and get rid of him. 390 00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:14,439 Speaker 1: And that's the chess match at play. Now. When you 391 00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:17,160 Speaker 1: know that, I mean, you gotta take your heart out 392 00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:19,879 Speaker 1: of it. It's a business and you shouldn't be connected 393 00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:23,080 Speaker 1: personally to that. It's transaction or it's based on your 394 00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:26,520 Speaker 1: actions on the field and then the transactions off the field. 395 00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:29,840 Speaker 1: But it was mind blowing to see that. I'm expecting 396 00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:32,440 Speaker 1: to see some dude from college that I adn't know about, 397 00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:35,760 Speaker 1: and instead of seeing that Peyton man I was like, 398 00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:38,640 Speaker 1: they're trying to trade for Peyton Matta. I'm staying here 399 00:21:38,640 --> 00:21:41,000 Speaker 1: for so we're gonna win the super Bowl. Obviously, neither 400 00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:43,399 Speaker 1: one of those worked out. This the only ring I got. 401 00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:48,120 Speaker 1: I am just fascinated with life, like since a little kid. 402 00:21:48,560 --> 00:21:50,879 Speaker 1: When they were calling me a nerd, they were really 403 00:21:50,920 --> 00:21:55,280 Speaker 1: mislabeling me. I wasn't a nerd. I was just intellectually curious, 404 00:21:55,480 --> 00:21:57,760 Speaker 1: Like I was the one that just wanted to know more. 405 00:21:58,119 --> 00:22:00,760 Speaker 1: I don't know why, but that is the most fascinating 406 00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:04,080 Speaker 1: thing in this world to me, just knowing more not 407 00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:07,640 Speaker 1: knowing everything. There's a big difference. Some stuff I just 408 00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:10,439 Speaker 1: don't care about it, but there are things that I 409 00:22:10,520 --> 00:22:13,880 Speaker 1: really care for and I want to know all levels 410 00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:16,840 Speaker 1: of it. Therefore the name of this show never shut 411 00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:20,680 Speaker 1: up right, Let's always discussed these things. Let's always get 412 00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:23,280 Speaker 1: our opinions out and the open and let's learn from 413 00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:27,640 Speaker 1: each other. One that caught me today was interesting how 414 00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:33,400 Speaker 1: the Brooklyn Nets have won more games than the Dallas 415 00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:38,160 Speaker 1: Mavericks since the Kyrie Irvan trade was made. Interesting they 416 00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:41,320 Speaker 1: won seven, Dallas has won six. I'm not gonna get 417 00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:44,199 Speaker 1: into the basketball exs and ows and are other shows 418 00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:47,080 Speaker 1: that do that. I want to get into the dynamic 419 00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:49,320 Speaker 1: of how the hell does that even happen? Like you 420 00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:54,359 Speaker 1: add Kyrie rap versus you lose Kyrie up own. Let's 421 00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:58,320 Speaker 1: talk about the addition by subtraction. Let's start there, right, 422 00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:03,040 Speaker 1: because sometimes you ask something to your team dynamic when 423 00:23:03,080 --> 00:23:08,880 Speaker 1: you lose someone, lose that talent, lose that greatness. Want 424 00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:13,439 Speaker 1: to know why. Let's go here from Brooklyn's perspective, you 425 00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:18,560 Speaker 1: lose Kyrie Irving, everybody looks around is like, Yo, nobody 426 00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:22,159 Speaker 1: gonna save us. Dog, It's on us. And when you 427 00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:25,399 Speaker 1: go home, it's not a US at home, it's you. 428 00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:29,840 Speaker 1: US starts with the letter you, doesn't it. So you 429 00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:33,959 Speaker 1: gotta remember that, Like this team still has black belts 430 00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:37,840 Speaker 1: on it. All. These guys were collegiate grads, are high 431 00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:41,159 Speaker 1: school grads, Like somehow, some way they made it to 432 00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:43,440 Speaker 1: the pros. Y'all could clown them all you want when 433 00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:45,840 Speaker 1: they're at the pro level, because they're amongst the greatest 434 00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:49,199 Speaker 1: on the planet. But there's still a special talent. I 435 00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:52,200 Speaker 1: tell everyone, especially fans that come up to me trying 436 00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:54,840 Speaker 1: to dis some player, I'm like, dog, he's still a 437 00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:57,760 Speaker 1: black belt. He may not be a thirty degree black belt, 438 00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:00,480 Speaker 1: he may not be the best ever Bruce leeon, but 439 00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:03,480 Speaker 1: he is a black build. Don't believe me. Go to 440 00:24:03,600 --> 00:24:06,280 Speaker 1: the local gym with one of those scrubs in the 441 00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:09,560 Speaker 1: NBA and play against him. Hill, where are your ass out? 442 00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:13,560 Speaker 1: That's how the game goes. So addition by subtraction on 443 00:24:13,560 --> 00:24:17,119 Speaker 1: that team, right, Oh no savior, Oh no pie in 444 00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:19,760 Speaker 1: the sky coming. Nobody's just gonna come down from the heavens. 445 00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:23,280 Speaker 1: It's on me, it's on us, It's on you. And 446 00:24:23,359 --> 00:24:26,600 Speaker 1: they go out there and actually engage and activate and 447 00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:29,520 Speaker 1: play above their heads. So it was always in them, 448 00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:33,760 Speaker 1: but they were deferring, they were showing reverence. They were 449 00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:37,200 Speaker 1: also knowing their place and knowing their role. That Kyrie. Sean, 450 00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:40,040 Speaker 1: we'll get in where we fit in. Right, That's how 451 00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:42,640 Speaker 1: it goes. Now there's a flip side to that as well. 452 00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:47,199 Speaker 1: You're the Dallas Mavericks. Kyrie shows up, everyone psychologically just 453 00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:49,359 Speaker 1: starts to fit into their role. Right, You're like, oh, 454 00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:53,480 Speaker 1: Kyrie here, Okay, everyone bumped down outside of Luca one 455 00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:56,840 Speaker 1: notch because Kyrie's in the building. Correct, that's how it goes. 456 00:24:57,040 --> 00:24:58,760 Speaker 1: I dare you to buck and be like, oh, it's 457 00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:02,200 Speaker 1: my turn to Sean Kyrie. Ye, okay, you'd be doing 458 00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:04,760 Speaker 1: that on the bench between your legs as you sit. 459 00:25:04,840 --> 00:25:07,800 Speaker 1: There ain't none of that happening on the court Luca 460 00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:13,440 Speaker 1: Kyrie's show. But then some of those main characters who 461 00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:15,880 Speaker 1: have the talent that could go out there and give 462 00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:18,920 Speaker 1: you production, all of a sudden, they become background singers. 463 00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:22,040 Speaker 1: They become like background noise, just here to fill in 464 00:25:22,080 --> 00:25:25,399 Speaker 1: the blanks. And it doesn't add up all the way 465 00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:30,040 Speaker 1: with that dynamic because what also's happening at the top. 466 00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:33,480 Speaker 1: It's something that we saw in Miami when Lebron went 467 00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:36,959 Speaker 1: to join Dwayne Wade and Chris Boss came with him. 468 00:25:37,280 --> 00:25:42,760 Speaker 1: Remember that it's called excess deference. Right, you just defer 469 00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:45,520 Speaker 1: too much, like you don't know where to get in. 470 00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:48,680 Speaker 1: You don't know where to fit in between Luca and Kyrie, 471 00:25:49,119 --> 00:25:52,480 Speaker 1: like between Lebron and d Wade, because Lebron went to 472 00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:55,840 Speaker 1: d Wade's house, but everyone knew that Lebron Shoa had 473 00:25:55,840 --> 00:25:58,320 Speaker 1: the master bedroom. I hear y'all right, Now, first of all, 474 00:25:58,600 --> 00:26:00,720 Speaker 1: don't start with that whole master bear room stuff. I 475 00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:03,320 Speaker 1: saw something on the internet, so it must be true 476 00:26:03,359 --> 00:26:05,800 Speaker 1: that the master bedroom stuff didn't start with slavery. It 477 00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:08,280 Speaker 1: started way after that, like in the nineteen hundred, So 478 00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:11,000 Speaker 1: y'all wrong for that anyway. So you go to the 479 00:26:11,119 --> 00:26:14,240 Speaker 1: way Waye's house, but you're supposed to be sleeping in 480 00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:17,240 Speaker 1: the biggest bathroom, and you didn't want to because Lebron 481 00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:19,840 Speaker 1: got that big heart. You know, that's big bro, that's 482 00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:22,680 Speaker 1: d Way to them. But d Way was great. But 483 00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:25,520 Speaker 1: the knees and that game started to come down the 484 00:26:25,600 --> 00:26:29,119 Speaker 1: hill ever so slightly, and Lebrons was still climbing. And 485 00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:32,000 Speaker 1: what should have happened is d Way, I love your house, 486 00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:35,480 Speaker 1: big dog, but I might have to take that big bedroom. 487 00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:37,920 Speaker 1: And I heard this from one of their coaches actually, 488 00:26:38,320 --> 00:26:40,879 Speaker 1: and he said, Dog, I remember one time we were 489 00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:44,160 Speaker 1: in practice and they had to yell at Lebron because 490 00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:47,280 Speaker 1: it's like, Lebron, take the damn keys, like you know, 491 00:26:47,560 --> 00:26:49,600 Speaker 1: hot potato and with the keys on the D Way 492 00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:52,760 Speaker 1: that's me and d Way. Oh perfect basketball play. Take 493 00:26:52,800 --> 00:26:55,880 Speaker 1: the damn keys and take over. What happened? They made 494 00:26:55,880 --> 00:26:58,719 Speaker 1: it to the finals. They didn't win in part because 495 00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:01,560 Speaker 1: they didn't know their roles properly because they were showing 496 00:27:01,600 --> 00:27:05,760 Speaker 1: that excess deference at the top. What's gonna happen with 497 00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:07,520 Speaker 1: Dallas right now? Are they gonna get caught up in 498 00:27:07,560 --> 00:27:10,080 Speaker 1: that Luca like dog Kyrie O beast, but I'm Luca, 499 00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:13,800 Speaker 1: and Kyrie like Luca obast but I'm Kyrie. Somebody gonna 500 00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:16,359 Speaker 1: have to take the keys and open up the big 501 00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:19,560 Speaker 1: bedroom doors. Like first of all, if you have ever 502 00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:21,760 Speaker 1: been in somebody house that has keys to their master 503 00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:25,040 Speaker 1: bedroom that opens up like this, That's what I'm talking about. 504 00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:27,960 Speaker 1: They're gonna have to find those keys and claim that room. 505 00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:32,560 Speaker 1: Someone has to be the lead dog. Now, after that happens, 506 00:27:32,840 --> 00:27:35,320 Speaker 1: you start to find out what this team is fully 507 00:27:35,359 --> 00:27:40,200 Speaker 1: capable of. After those roles are properly defined. Right now 508 00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:44,480 Speaker 1: in Dallas not properly defined, Oh, in Brooklyn. Easy, Hey, dog, 509 00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:46,280 Speaker 1: only way we're gonna kick these light zones if we 510 00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:49,199 Speaker 1: go out there and even we kill. Let's start killing stuff. 511 00:27:49,359 --> 00:27:51,640 Speaker 1: And it's simple. So that's how you can get that 512 00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:55,440 Speaker 1: initial joke and boost from a team that is actually 513 00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:59,160 Speaker 1: in deficit of talent, but they are all playing together 514 00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:03,440 Speaker 1: versus this finger over here called Luca, this finger over 515 00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:06,840 Speaker 1: here called Kyrie going against the Brooklyn nets as a fist. 516 00:28:07,280 --> 00:28:10,119 Speaker 1: Gonna lose that one every time. They need to close 517 00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:12,560 Speaker 1: it up over there in Dallas, and they're gonna get 518 00:28:12,560 --> 00:28:14,600 Speaker 1: there because the talent is there. And what's gonna happen 519 00:28:14,600 --> 00:28:17,200 Speaker 1: in Brooklyn. Let's be real, they're gonna regrets to the mean, 520 00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:20,359 Speaker 1: They're gonna go back to the law of averages or 521 00:28:20,359 --> 00:28:23,400 Speaker 1: what a team like that should look like. Yeah, play 522 00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:25,880 Speaker 1: above your heads all you want. You won't do that forever, 523 00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:30,000 Speaker 1: but with Dallas there's a chance, especially because the West 524 00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:35,560 Speaker 1: is wide open. So that Miami heat those four years 525 00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:39,360 Speaker 1: with Lebron and d Wade together was just to me, 526 00:28:39,560 --> 00:28:43,360 Speaker 1: just a lesson of life of like, when you go 527 00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:46,880 Speaker 1: into a situation, you gotta always show who you are. 528 00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:49,600 Speaker 1: I know, it's tough. We're go into rooms and we 529 00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:52,800 Speaker 1: read rooms first, Right, you want to make sure everyone's nice, 530 00:28:53,040 --> 00:28:55,400 Speaker 1: want to make sure everyone's cool. Oh, that's my boy 531 00:28:55,480 --> 00:28:57,200 Speaker 1: over there. Let me give them the nod. I hate 532 00:28:57,200 --> 00:28:59,080 Speaker 1: the nod too, Like the nod is supposed to be, 533 00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:00,680 Speaker 1: Like we're in the same place this and no we're not. 534 00:29:00,960 --> 00:29:02,680 Speaker 1: Oh I see you over there. What's up? Boy? Like 535 00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:05,760 Speaker 1: we need what's up? What's up? Like with me? Like 536 00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:07,800 Speaker 1: I'm only here to eat, bro, and I'm gonna have 537 00:29:07,840 --> 00:29:09,280 Speaker 1: to kill some stuff in here, and don't let it 538 00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:11,719 Speaker 1: be you, Like I'm in here to go get this. 539 00:29:11,840 --> 00:29:15,840 Speaker 1: We're competing. It's a funny dynamic when you're competing against 540 00:29:15,880 --> 00:29:18,760 Speaker 1: not only those in the room, but the whole world 541 00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:22,120 Speaker 1: outside of the room. Right, Team sports. So those Miami 542 00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:26,160 Speaker 1: four years, Lebron year one messed that thing up because 543 00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:29,080 Speaker 1: he didn't want to take control. Oh after year one 544 00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:32,600 Speaker 1: and all that ridicule and then losing the Dallas, Oh 545 00:29:33,320 --> 00:29:35,520 Speaker 1: that boy got right. He took them keys. He went 546 00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:38,040 Speaker 1: in that bad room, kicked Dwayne way out and said, man, 547 00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:40,160 Speaker 1: you better go sleep on the couch or something, because 548 00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:42,640 Speaker 1: this is my squad, even though this is your house. 549 00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:47,000 Speaker 1: And there's nothing wrong with that except let's be real 550 00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:50,040 Speaker 1: feels weird, right, It just does. I coach my kids 551 00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:53,160 Speaker 1: right now, and my kids are kind of like being 552 00:29:53,280 --> 00:29:55,360 Speaker 1: nice to each other. I said, do you can go 553 00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:58,120 Speaker 1: at somebody or the other team and still be a 554 00:29:58,120 --> 00:30:00,200 Speaker 1: good guy. Guess when you're gonna show your a good 555 00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:03,880 Speaker 1: guy after the game? Good game, good game. While you're 556 00:30:03,880 --> 00:30:07,160 Speaker 1: playing the game. I hate to tell you, it's okay 557 00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:09,520 Speaker 1: to go to that special place. It's okay to not 558 00:30:09,640 --> 00:30:12,440 Speaker 1: want that guy to succeed. It's okay to try your 559 00:30:12,440 --> 00:30:15,080 Speaker 1: best to make him fail. He has to do his 560 00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:18,240 Speaker 1: best to make you fail. That's what we are volunteered 561 00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:20,800 Speaker 1: to do. So it's gonna be fun to see how 562 00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:24,240 Speaker 1: Brooklyn continues to elevate but sooner or later get on 563 00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:27,200 Speaker 1: that roller coaster, and to see Dallas get off the 564 00:30:27,280 --> 00:30:30,720 Speaker 1: roller coaster and finally elevate. Well, y'all know how we're 565 00:30:30,760 --> 00:30:34,320 Speaker 1: in this show every single time. What a wily ism, 566 00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:37,560 Speaker 1: and this one comes sponsored by Nancy Reagan. Your guys 567 00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:40,800 Speaker 1: would know it when I say just say no. Remember 568 00:30:40,840 --> 00:30:43,360 Speaker 1: she said in the just say No. But I had 569 00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:47,560 Speaker 1: to make it a wism, just say no without guilt. Boom. 570 00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:50,120 Speaker 1: Let me tell you I used to live by that 571 00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:52,760 Speaker 1: mantra just say no. They tell you that every time 572 00:30:53,080 --> 00:30:55,560 Speaker 1: you go into a new situation and you're getting pressure 573 00:30:55,600 --> 00:30:58,560 Speaker 1: to do stuff, just say no peer pressure, Just say 574 00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:01,760 Speaker 1: no drugs and gangs and stuff. Just say no. And 575 00:31:01,800 --> 00:31:04,760 Speaker 1: I was like, that doesn't work, like it sounds great. 576 00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:07,800 Speaker 1: But when you say no to somebody, they always want 577 00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:11,000 Speaker 1: to repeat the question, right, Like my kids all the time, 578 00:31:11,280 --> 00:31:13,160 Speaker 1: they were like, Daddy, can I get some popcorn with 579 00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:16,960 Speaker 1: the butter and the season salt? No, you had it yesterday. 580 00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:22,280 Speaker 1: Why another question next day? Daddy, can I get the 581 00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:25,840 Speaker 1: butter popcorn with the season salt? Yes? He didn't ask 582 00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:28,360 Speaker 1: me nothing else, right, right, So when they say just 583 00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:31,800 Speaker 1: say no, they needed to finish that sentence because just 584 00:31:31,840 --> 00:31:34,080 Speaker 1: saying no ain't enough. People were like, why, what's up? 585 00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:38,040 Speaker 1: What's wrong? Right? So I learned to add without guilt. 586 00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:41,640 Speaker 1: So there you can go through the conversation fully of 587 00:31:41,720 --> 00:31:44,240 Speaker 1: why you said no, and don't let it start to 588 00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:47,760 Speaker 1: wear on you to the point that you actually are 589 00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:51,800 Speaker 1: considering saying yes. Think about it now, Just say no 590 00:31:51,920 --> 00:31:55,360 Speaker 1: without guilt. You say no, Hey, dog, I want you 591 00:31:55,400 --> 00:31:56,920 Speaker 1: to go over here with me, and you know we're 592 00:31:56,920 --> 00:31:58,640 Speaker 1: gonna get into something. You're like, man, I ain't gonna 593 00:31:58,640 --> 00:32:00,800 Speaker 1: do that. No, I'm good. Why dog, what you're doing? 594 00:32:00,840 --> 00:32:03,920 Speaker 1: What else you're up to? You're like, if you start 595 00:32:03,960 --> 00:32:08,000 Speaker 1: to answer that and start to feel the guilt from 596 00:32:08,040 --> 00:32:10,640 Speaker 1: saying no, oh, this is a matter of time, you're 597 00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:12,520 Speaker 1: gonna end up saying all right, dog, all right, man, 598 00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:15,280 Speaker 1: I'll go with you, and you know you're answering go 599 00:32:15,560 --> 00:32:19,560 Speaker 1: with them. Just say no without guilt. So apply that 600 00:32:19,640 --> 00:32:22,120 Speaker 1: to all the situations you're in. And I don't want 601 00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:25,880 Speaker 1: to go all ways to illegal activities or scandless activities. 602 00:32:26,000 --> 00:32:28,880 Speaker 1: Sometimes it's just someone asking you simply to do something 603 00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:32,320 Speaker 1: you really don't want to do. But then you're like 604 00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:35,000 Speaker 1: soon you say no, You're like, but I could, but 605 00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:38,479 Speaker 1: I should, But I mean, I shouldn't be that mean, Like, 606 00:32:39,160 --> 00:32:45,440 Speaker 1: just say no, nacy regging, Just say no without guilt. 607 00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:48,320 Speaker 1: You'll be much happier for it.
