Delanie Walker

All right, our first guess of the podcast on Busting with the Boys is our guy, Delaney Walker, Will Compton's favorite player. I said it before you can even get to it, but you are now busting with the Boys fall us on all media platforms, bustin WTB. That's for Twitter and also for Instagram. And if you're thinking YouTube, I want to see the boys on YouTube, Well it might be Busting with the Boys or busting WTB. We're still waiting for our production company to figure it out.

Dude, Delaney, who's your number one fan? You are my guy.

Listen, if there's one person everything, everything you post, if he puts something out there.

Huh yeah, he's on it. You're my favorite player.

There's if there's one person that doesn't need that, it's you. No one's no one's more confident than Delanney Walker.

Yeah, I'm pretty much the best player on the team. Besides besides Taylor's the second.

I'll tell you what. We'll talk about that in a second. Actually, but dude, I remember the first. So we started, we're on the we're potting right now, right, so we're.

Potting on our first podcast. Well, thanks for having me.

Congratulations, dude, this is a big honor for you.

No, it is.

I mean, I'm on the bus, on the races bus, but.

You're the first black guy to be on this bus.

I totally there's a reason. Can you guys hear me?

Jesus Christ?

What happened? Oh yeah, something does and someone down? Something went out? Mic is right? How about that on the first first pod?

Dude, this is I'm dead over here.

Do we kick something now? I can hear it? It came back. It just came back. Cool.

I can't hear you, Taylor, you can't hear dude. That's just part of the first poddude, that's just what happens.

I thought it out. Either.

We're not editing that at all.

There's a strategy to it, though we wanted our first guest. But why edit you? Yeah?

Because the thing is, here's the deal is, like I'm in the NFL, You're in the NFL.

Will's in the NFL.

Hey, what I'm saying is if we say something stupid or we make a remark that hey, yeah, yeah, that the NFL might get mad.

I mean I do that every day.

You piss off some people all the time.

Yeah, did you see his interview at Ben Jones' Dude, I was there.

I was like, I was like fifteen feet away.

From Yeah, but did you listen? Yeah?

I heard it.

But you got mad?

You a good reason to be mad, due Yeah. Well, people all the time are trying to doubt you because you're what you're.

Thirteen fourteen the league fourteen.

That's crazy. What was your thought process when people were like, hey, we need a drafted tight end because I saw I mean, you know people look at those drafts stuff stuff all the time.

Well, Honestly, this is the this is the fifth year that they said we needed tight end. We need tight end. Titans need to draft the tight end. Every year they say that. I mean, we drafted John U. They said he was going to replace me. You know, obviously that's hard to do.

You know what I say, It's not easy. It's not easy.

So I mean, I never get upset, but I feel like they don't watch our games because for you to go into national television and say, well, Dlayne Walker is too old. This year is fourteen, he's about to be thirty five. He's all he's coming off injury. He can't do it anymore. Uh, drafted tight end. Then they keep saying it, keep saying it, keep saying it. Obviously I'm gonna say something about I mean, drafted fucking tight end. He's still not gonna play. And that's pretty much how

House rightly said dude. The thing that's that's so funny. They're looking to replace you have to get past your five.

They're looking to find a replacement for you every time.

That's crazy. I mean, and you you're fourteen, you were forty nine ers first year here, you're here now. I remember the first day I walked in. First off, you're what thirty five years old? About to be about to be thirty five years old? You look like you're eighteen ball all right? Are you doing skin.

Products all the time or what you know what facials?

That's the move. See, that's not that's not an unmaiinly thing to do.

No, it's not not now you know back in the day when I was growing up you but not.

Yeah.

See all those dudes not like busted though. They don't look good at all.

They look terrible. Like the rookie week guy, he looks like he's thirty five, which one I don't know his name? All right, I.

Remember my first time I walked in to the to the locker room was my It was my first day. I just finished rookie Muni camp and I walked in. We had the old school locker room with those those little square things. First thing I did was hit my shint on it. So I was already in a bad mood and I'm like shaking hands. Jake Locker walks by me. He's like, what's up. Nice to meet you can't wait for you to protect me, blah blah blah, that whole cliche song and dance. And Delaney walks up and you

Dude.

I was like, dude, this is the NFL.

It's a shot.

It is, dude. That's the thing, dude, when you put a Delaney, it's not like it's not like it's all like if you're a good football player, like you ain't got problem. Me and DeLanda on have issues because we know we both aren't get after it every Sunday. But I'll tell you what you're in you guy. I've literally watched guys walk up and try to shake his hand and goes, I don't know you well.

He says that the team He's literally said last year in the one of the team meetings, I don't have to know who these rookies are you guys got to know who we are?

Yeah, real talk? Well, I mean, what else?

That's a real thing. I mean, But also you say, he always says, why would I'm not gonna learn any rookies name was half a market making team. Why would I learn your name?

It's true.

That's real though, Like being in the league.

As long as I've been in the league, I've done set by so many people, and I learned their names and it ain't out there anymore. And then I like, I wasted a memory bank on a player that was gonna be there. So now I'm like, bro, I'm not gonna remember your name unless you show me something. If you show me something, I'm gonna remember your name. Like I I was screwing with Taylor because I'm like, oh Taylor, look, I watched fam on them. I'm like, god, damn, he

Of liked him more.

Like and usually I messed with people for a long time, but I'm like, I like this dude, Like he weird, he fights, he's crazy.

I like it.

You know what I'm saying, because most lineman is if you ain't a fighter.

Man, you really don't see how you not how you alignment, Like you gotta be a fucking period.

And that's what he was showing me.

That's that's definitely feel like something that's like gone away, and like since the two thousands or whatever before I was here being in the league, like when you have ever when you were younger, like it's probably like a real like men men out here playing football.

Yeah, they were like you didn't mess with the whole line. Like the O line was like head bunch you in the face. You know, just bust a bottle over their head for no reason. You just scared ship out of you so scary, can I cuss?

Yeah, whatever you want?

This is yeah, hell yeah, it's the bus there is the bus. You do whatever you want on the bus. I think it's crazy, dude, No, definitely, fourteen years in the NFL, and it's crazy they're always trying to replace you. But I mean it is a deal.

That's why I say, go for it.

Go for it.

You're gonna just he's gonna be sitting on the bench watching eight two play, like you know what I'm saying. When I'm tired watching it play, you could come in the game, dude.

I love We always say you're such a good blocker, though, I am, well.

That's kind of how that's kind of how you come on, like you want me to catch thirty passes and you did a lot of your during saying fran block.

Oh no, that's what I did see in San Franz.

I blocked that where you remember like what forty six?

I was, Yeah, forty six it was trash, But you know.

That was because you saw that that was my rook.

Difference between there being a linebacker that's forty to fall back in forty sex that's trash, that's awful. Who was the other tight in there with you?

Vernon him and Vernon Davis.

Got some studs out there?

Are you guys able to hear my mic that well, yours keep dying.

Do you make out that thing?

Dude? Yeah? Him and Vernon.

I played with Vernon too, and when I came last year, I had all the questions to Delaney about Vernon.

What's what's Vernon like?

He I don't know.

He's like, dude, He's an awesome dude, a genuine one of the best dudes I've been around.

But he's like two. He's he's like, I don't know, I don't know how he wasn't really nice, super nice dude.

He wasn't like that at first.

You know.

I'm like when I first met and Vernon was like he got after it, like god after it. I'm not gonna say much because he just got he just got married and stuff.

But oh.

Said enough just by that he said it all right that let me tell you something now, like it does like when you get married, what clean slag dude. I know what I was before I get it. Someday you'll be married, well some day than it might be. But know, yeah, oh man, you got kids too.

I got kids, like you know, that would just be the best father I can be.

What do you want to get married?

You know, I man, I consider myself like a hippie slash hipster. We don't even call ourselves hipster. It's just something I'm.

Just giving people your thinking life.

Yeah, I'm just giving people an idea of where you can see me, how I dress, how I act. I don't know if I believe in it, you know what I mean. I believe in partners. Yeah, I'm sure I have a partner, But marriage, I feel like that's just like.

Security. Yeah, I don't know.

I really don't really know. You know, I talk right now, but who knows. Like I'm not into the pre nups, and like once that, once they start talking about that, I kind of lose interests, you know what I mean, Because once she brings that up, it's like basically saying she says she may leave me. Like at one point, like what the fuck? Yeah here, you know what I mean, Like,

Even if you don't get married. To her.

Yeah, how's that work? Is that like a certain amount of time?

And then I think it's five years, is it?

Yeah?

Some I think it's less than that.

Damn, Peyton and I were coming all married at one point. Pp I'm sorry, really you too? Yeah, we lived together since college.

Man, we could have dude, that's the thing about the bus, Dude, we are a diverse group of dues, all right, A couple of dudes that were married at one point, and here we are in the bus. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's beautiful.

Common marriage law. Wrong, old guys. Yeah, it happens. White guys, black guys, gingers.

We got Confederate flags on top of our bus. That are we're getting rid of by the.

I mean, you know, I don't think see people, let's talk about that. People don't understand what the Confederate flag mean. It was like thirteen colonies that believe in something right. They believed in having their own govern as we would say. But and you know it's the stigmas became that it's racist. Well obviously, yeah, they fought in war for slavery, which is understandable.

But I see some people, I think they overlook it and.

Just really get upset about just what the flag they think the flag stand for, and not know the history because we don't know history anymore in America.

We don't teach it like we used to.

Yeah, definitely, see what you're saying. We we actually we did like a faux podcast when we first started doing this whole thing, and we started talking about this out there, and I was like being like, no, we're keeping it.

Okay, okay, then what's the difference with plantations?

So here's the different plantations, the different plantations. It's a piece of land. And that's that's the big thing to me where I would say where my thought process was. And one thing my wife brought up to me is if it was a statue of Adolf Hitler, what would we do then, you know, cause like if I like because that that's that was the same way. I was like, this is bullshit, Like why wouldn't we just keep everything up and understand like hate and we should not be

You know, you put it in.

An educational form, then all of a sudden you're like, Okay, well you know we're good. You know that that that type of thing. But like that's that's where my mind. I saw she said, well, what if it was a thing of Adolf Hitler? And I was like, Dad, what do you say?

Now? You know?

But see that's the thing, like what we have that in America. It didn't happen in America. So for us to have Adolf Hitler in America, that would seem weird that like, okay, why would we have a statue of him? When this happened in Germany Eastern Poland. I look at it as it shows how far we've come. I mean, obviously it was built off hate, but it shows how far the world has come, you know what I mean to see. So I've been in school where some kids

Never.

Now, look at the world, you know, it's I want to say, I can't even give you a percentage, but it's a high percentage of kids that are mixed, that are in different race, that has experienced different cultures. And sometimes I feel like that is a learning lesson.

But I get it. Some people it's that you too, that me too movement. Now we have that me too movement.

Someone doesn't like something, they make a deal out of it, and that's something that's been standing there for years. Now they don't like it all of a sudden because one thing happened or another and now it's the me too movement, like, oh, we should tear this down because this happened.

But that's history and that shows where.

We come from and where where there's world is involved into Like so let people see it so they can.

See that we can change. But you know, that's just me. You may I may even get backlash from this because people, well.

There's so much to it, you know, again, we're just dudes sitting here talking about stuff. A lot of people want to take circumstances that they go through what they have and get behind some of these movements too, which is where a lot of the gray area will happen, because you know, there'll be examples of why I think, you know, why move moment's happened, and a lot of educational stuff to take away from it and learn from.

And do you feel like we're a trendy society now? I feel like anything that's trendy, that's what they get behind.

I think the biggest problem in the trendy part of society right now is it's trendy to be lazy. It's trendy to be like you go on Instagram and you're like Monday feeling and it's like someone getting blown up or.

You know what I'm saying, right, just an immediate response or reaction that's kind of like naked.

It's just something like, oh I felt bad on a Monday before I can definitely get down with that. Yeah, yeah, you know that's not That's not how it should work, you know what I'm saying, Like, positivity should allays reign and productivity should always rain over laziness in a lase fair attitude, right.

But it does it shows that that doesn't show, but it's not as popular in this whole mainstream social media world.

It's just it's just crazy to me that like worth three NFL players and people, everybody wants to be in the NFL. Dude, everybody wants to be an NFL player, But everybody sees like NFL players like look at like look at the way the Landy dresses. Look at the car, look at the cars he drives, look at this.

It's like, look at these dumb at look at these athletes talking about yeah, but social stuff.

But what I'm saying on a podcast, what I'm.

Saying is like, yeah, like oh look at look at what he does. Look at this, look at that. Oh they look how much money they have. It's like, yo, we worked so hard for all of that and had to go through all these ups and downs and twists and turns that people don't even don't even see. So now like that's I think that's the issue. You get you even dudes get in the NFL. Now you see these rookies come in and they're like, man, I'm living like I'm living the dream.

This is it.

It's like bro like.

Especially around especially around like verybel To, like he humbles those dudes asap.

You know, he is, He's really good at put dudes in the place.

It's starting to trickle all the way down to high school. Like you see these kids posting videos and the way they select their schools.

Now, it's like a social huge hype train.

It's all about social media. You know what social media started. It was pretty much made these kids feel like I can.

Be instant famous influencers.

Yes, influencers.

What was what was your what was your like situation like going from like high school to college and all that.

So I went to Central Missouri State University. Oh Ship, Yeah, that's where I grew up in Missouri and Missouri. I saw you five seven three. I'm like, what the seven three?

Oh number?

Yeah, yeah, you don't even know you're my fat. I just didn't know what you're talking about. You said five seven three. I immediately thought forty times. I was like, wow, the disrespect going on.

Yeah, you can see what Wills heads at.

He's stared. Yeah, he got you in the room. No, I would never. No, I'm not going well you you would do when you wouldn't knock on me? No, I wouldn't. But I'm remember in December came into the hot tub. I still talk about this story because it shook me to my core. Who were we playing that week? It was?

It wasn't a cult. It wasn't that late in the season.

No, yeah, it wasn't that, But it wasn't the Red.

It might have been like like Jacksonville.

Yeah, yeah, Jacksonville. I was coming in the hot tub. Delaney was in there, and I'm alwayshyped to see Delaney. Always seem in the steam room sauna. He's always in there doing his own little P ninety X workout in the steamer room. We just always talk shop all the time. But I was hyped to see him.

You know, I'm like the boy.

He's like, come, what up?

Man?

You stopped working out this year?

You know it's again late.

The winter coat comes on a little bit, I'm center pale white, the tights are on a little tight. So I got the little muffin top showing you stopped working out this year, and just I didn't say nothing.

I just got you know that hurt to hear it, but killed yeah.

Nothing worse. Because the thing is is, I know where your head was at then, and then you were like, man, I'm kind of feeling like you come up to behave how am I doing? What's going on here? We're always like checking each other, like, yo, hey you're good, don't worry. Yeah, And then you get to the end of the season, you're like, yeah, this shit's kind of going all over the place, just getting a little rough the body. The

Like trash who goes through a broken leg and nothing happens to you.

Yo, you lost a lot of weight. I lost a lot of weight. Did you just stop eating for a little.

Bit pretty much? Yeah?

Yeah, no, you know what I just me I get I can get fat. So I've seen it.

It was happening like when the first week when I broke it, I was killing fool. I was just like, you know, I'm like trying to get up back hurt, no more abs.

I'm like, oh no, I can't do this. You know what I'm saying. You kind of just feel sorry for yourself when you're injured like that. Not really I got you know, I was paid, so I was like tipping.

I'm just this sign of contract, seventh contract.

Yeah, that wasn't even really mad, but like, so when you go through something like that though, like I know you're not mad thinking you got paid, but like playing football was something going on to whereas you know, say last year, you're definitely you're definitely trying to prove something being an older guy, and then you go down with an injury. So you know, the immediate thought is, you know,

Yeah.

So that's that's what really got me to start losing weight because I started talking to a physical theft and he was like, look, you're getting heavy. If you want to get bounced back, you may need to cut down on your your diet and lose some weight.

You know what I mean? Who cares?

No, Yeah, you know that definitely needs to come back on for a little.

B'm start feeling I started sweating too. Yeah, no, it's not bad.

You can hear a little bit. But hey, if anybody's listening to this and they're like, man, it's a little draggy, it's hot on the bus, dude. If you're going to be in a bus and may and Nashville, Tennessee. Dude, you're gonna need a little bit of a C so go ahead, you're gonna listen, You're gonna take the AC you don't want to listen, just turn us off by just turn it off.

Hey, can I ask a question from an outsider's perspective?

Go ahead?

So, so, first game Miami break your leg YEP, which was the honestly the worst game ever to watch in history.

It was so terrible. So what happens do you still get the same exact game checks? Like, what what happens with that?

Well, luckily I just signed a new deal and my agent put basically put in you know, even if I got hurt, it was guaranteed no matter what injury guarantee. Injury guarantee and the Titans knowing that what kind of player I was, never really been hurt none. And this was the first time I ever been heard in my career where I missed the whole season. So Titans agreed to that pretty much that contract. So I got hurt, I was fully guaranteed and all my full contract.

Yeah.

A lot of times, a lot of times there's splits in contracts here, especially like yeah, Shookie contracts. If you get hurt and you don't play a certa amount of snaps, your IR settlement goes in half. IR is injury reserve.

Yeah cool. I always wondered that. Yeah, it's not the same for everybody. I was luckily to have that.

So but if I get hurt this year, yeah, it's split, like it will be split. So they it's in this year's contract. But I'm that I'm that's not gonna happen, so I will play this year.

It broke my heart, man, Yeah, appreciate you interrupting Juice.

Yeah that was Juice by the way.

Whoops, we were talking, so we're the psychology boun de. Yeah.

So then it was telling me I need to lose I should probably start losing weight and looking to like just losing body fact, because when once this cast come off, if it's similar, if the bite, my my muscles are similar, I can gain it back faster. So that's what I start doing. I started losing weight constantly. I just I would literally go to the steam room, abs, dips, push ups, crunches constantly, and I will only eat chicken in vegetables, chicken investibles, chicken investibles.

Twice a day. I would eat twice a day, and I lost a lot of weight, like fast, Like.

Just chicken, vegetables, chicken, vegetables, that's it.

And I've dropped fast. I was literally probably like two twenty something and it worked out.

It worked for me.

Now I'm in one of them. I'm probably in the best shape I've ever been in. I got My body fat is five point three percent. I'm thirty four years old. To forty, I mean, get to.

Forty right now.

You'll be too forty during the season. That's that's an impressive feed to forty for sure. I mean a five percent body fat that's pretty that's pretty damn awesome.

What's up?

You got something going on here, Mike?

Yeah. I wasn't trying to interrupt. No, go ahead, I mean I'm not just I wanted to hear it better.

Oh, I got you the Yeah. So what you're what's you're dying now? Just chicken and chicken and vegetables.

I'm still the same.

I'm still chicken and vegetables.

Every once in a while, eat some red meat, you know, I don't I don't touch pork, so pork is something I don't eat still, But chicken pretty much chicken, and every once in a while eat red meat. Sometimes I crave it.

So it's pork like a moral preference or is it because like it's just you just you just know it's not.

Good for you.

Well, I start following the Hebrew Israelites, and then we're not They're not allowed to eat pork, so I choose not to eat pork as well.

Yeah, I've stopped eating pork as well. I don't I mean, I don't follow keeberw Israelites, but I will say I will say that like pigs are like the four smartest animal in the world.

Very true, but they eat ship everything they're eating.

They you put something in a trough. Have you ever seen a you're seeing the movie Snatch.

Yeah, you chopped the body of twelve pieces.

You've starved the pigs, they'll eat it up. Ever since I saw that movie and I was like, I don't funk with pigs. Dude, Dude, this ship. I gotta stop eating plastic. I gotta stop using plastic. I'm gonna get rid of it. I'm gonna start doing my part.

Dude. Have you.

So like little the flood so little?

But I gotta do like a filtered water system. Have you heard of canin water?

Yeah? I got it at the house.

You have candar water? How much this cost?

It's like I know a guy who sponsored my football camp has a canin shop. No ship, Yeah, let.

Me get that plug.

I got just what about glass castle water? Castle water? They make it out of glass bottles.

There you go, So you can do box water castle water and it's made out of glass bottles. Because the plastic pretty much we can't do anything with plastic.

So we've gotten rid of the tupperware tools.

Hemp. You have you looked to hemp at all.

But I recently started hearing about it.

So hamp literally like if you use hamp along, like I guess, like the big the family is the roths child and all that stopped like made hemp illegal back in the day. And I think it comes from the marijuana plant and ze if you want to lose up, correct, it comes from the marijuana plant. But it's not like it's not bad at all. But you can use hemp to get rid of plastic and like one hundred thousand other products that are like hurting the planet. Yeah, and

Everything's going to count.

You know what's happening because these opius just making people go crazy and just it's bad.

Dude, I'll tell you. I'll tell you what man like I've I mean, we've both been hurt. We've all been hurt, and you get a couple of pills in your mouth. Dude, there is not a better feeling world. I'm being dead serious. But game totals insane, like that stuff, that stuff I took one before every I think a shot shot still and that stuff like if you had pain, it's gone.

I can't even play like I become dumb. Remember it's like a love hate relationshi because you know it's terrible for you.

But are you saying you can't I can't play.

I can't take it before a game like that last time. I remember, I don't know if you remember this.

You're talking about Oakland right now, and I was like, I ran like the can't take on you can't take tour before a game.

Pretty much, any kind of pain I don't like. I'm not I'm looped.

You can tell me to play and I'll run the tourtals an anti inflammatory. It's not a pain pill.

That made me feel like I was on crack. If you just didn't study that week, I don't need it was it was a preseason. It was you can tell me this was that?

Remember that that was from the fluid they got.

Yeah, because you got the you know, you got the air in there. Yeah, No, that I think you can talk about. Don't think that's a problem to talk about. If you like, if you get a certain amount of ce seeds of air and buss buzz is some you could die, like one hundred se season kill you. But if you get enough, it'll make your your heart dilate in a certain way, or your heart like from an ivy.

Yeah, I got fluid in my lungs and THEMN there died almost in the game.

From the the game. Those those ivs aren't that good.

Our next dude on Adam Bobo, he does he does our ivy bags not before a game.

I'm saying, like like an outsource.

Okay, yeah, yeah, that's so there'll be a lot of information that he'll be talking about.

That was because the guy just then wasn't paying attention and and bag the fluid was out, so air CP I think.

I think what you have to do is when you have fluid in the bag, it's called burping the back. So you pierce it and you push it so all the air pushes out and then you plug it back up. So now even if you drain the entire bag, it'll air will get in there. I mean, a couple of bubbles here and there is not a big deal, but if you get a lot in there, it'll Because.

I think I got bloated something you feel that you feel weird.

I last year I got I got knocked out in the Miami game. We both got sucked up in that little deal. Well, I missed the next game. In the game after that, I played Jacksonville. Dude, I was like throwing up before the game, but I got an I V and I was feeling like because the only reason I thought it might be the I V is because the way you were telling me you like shortness, I could barely breathe, and I don't don't I don't get tired.

Dude.

They usually say you will come back, but I'm like, it's preseason, but I'm not.

Even you don't need to play precast anyway, dude. So you're fourteen, you don't need to play presas. Yeah, that' stuff squad that I mean, I I feel I don't know about how you guys feel, but I feel like awful, get it to play, even if I'm like me to I want to play, But if you're in a preseason game, I totally get it.

For me.

It was Oh I played, I played it half of a game, got knocked out, missed the next game, which should have happened in the game after that, I can't be like, oh, sorry, I feel weird because of maybe an IV Like now you got to get out there and you gotta play ball.

Yeah, that's it's a weird pressure that comes with.

It because but if a pressure, it's a pressure you put on yourself, though I mean some coaches will definitely pressure.

The pressure you put on yourself.

But you also feel a lot of external stuff as well, even sometimes because sometimes you'll know, like yo, I know I'm I'm playing injured, but you know in your mind, like say you have an ankle that's messed up, right if you just say, always sprained his ankle, because that's what the trainers will always say, no matter what, Like you know how you feel, and everybody's pain tolerance and

Yeah, So it's just like this.

Weird like especially when we put on ourselves, but also external factors they go into it too.

I think there's a big there's a big difference between limbs then, Like I think the brain is a big thing. Like I think that's one good thing that Rabel does a really good job of. When I got hit and got knocked out, he texted me whatever on Tuesday that a couple of days later is like, you're don't you don't even think about playing this week. You're just not trying to play isn't gonna so you're out. He called

Yeah he doesn't get Tuesday.

He does a good job of that. But I think there's there's definitely when it becomes a business of money, that becomes an obligation now like hey, yeah, okay, your ankle hurts. How bad is that ankle hurt?

Though?

You gotta go play ball? You play, And there's a couple like I had to think my red shirt not my red shirt rookie year. I have like a high ankle spriand toward a couple of ligaments, and I will try to go out there a couple of times during practice and it was brutal. I felt like I was flying.

It was bad. That's when you had the dramatic fall in practice.

That's my rookie year. Did you were there?

I know, but you you've talked about it, about it.

You got the award, the award, the Chicago School of Acting Award.

That's Todd.

Todd dude, if you get if you get hurt in practice or something like that and you're super dramatic about it, but then it ends up not being anything. He'll put your face on like an actor photoshop, and then he'll put like Chicago School of Acting he.

Does.

He does funny. Do we gotta have ton on sometime?

Yeah?

He's an awesome dude. But yeah, that that. I think it's a little different when it comes to injuries, like especially hands and wrists and ankles, like you gotta to an extent, like you gotta go.

I always think, like I practice, I might be dramatic because it's practice, but I get dramatic.

But the game.

But the game, I'm like, it's the game. I'm stepping it up, like I don't even care. In the game, I may put to pull some God, this is kind of sod. Yeah, you know it's practice man, like you really want me to beat it up and practice in question and then.

Like it's like a different suit because as you get older, you start to have more knowledge about the injuries and stuff.

But when you're young, dude, you're just like brainwashed.

I have to go out there, and then I'm the guy that's going walk like nobody feels sorry for your ass.

Get you right, and you hear best say that, you're just thinking. You're like, yo, I have to fuck it. I gotta go.

I gotta go, you know, And that's that's pretty much. I mean, it comes with the job. You don't want to get cut, and nowadays they cutting you. If you can't go, they'll cut you.

Yeah, they're ruthless. But like there is a point like you for those first couple of years, you're like you're a robot, Like you come from college with your brainwashed, and then you get to your age or even your age, and you're like, you know, I mean I can I can take a day or two to make sure this is right, so I can actually do well because you realize, you start to realize that the only thing that matters

They don't, they don't.

I mean, obviously they want you to make every practice and they want you to be but like how you produce when the lights are on and the camera say action, that's it. That's the only thing that matters.

I used to only practice on Friday.

Yeah, you live in that dream.

I practice only on Friday and they like you good for Sunday.

I'm good, coach.

Do you ever do you ever feel like it takes away from your technique a little bit if you don't have that, if you have that much of a distance from Sunday to Friday, that's four days. Yeah, that's four days.

No.

I never felt that's a good psychology though, because me personally, I would be two in my own head if I wasn't practicing often, Like there's some weeks where you're like, yeah, you'll know you're injured, and it's like, yeah, I'll be ready.

But if I did the thing where it's like you play every Friday.

Like I know me, I'm just so like and a little you know, I have to study, like I have to prepare our I feel like I feel off kilter about everything.

I don't feel good unless i'm fully.

We'll see to me as me playing for so long, practice is like always perfect plays, which is never gonna be so like practicing ain't really what you're gonna get in the game.

No, I agree with you.

Give you what I'm saying, Like they the defense, how they know the defense is gonna be in cover two on this play? How they know the defense gonna blitz on this player? Like so it never really mattered to me. It was just like I'm just running this play to run it, you know, just the and branding in my mind. So I don't forget it because in the game I have never seen the play where they was like, they're

I mean, you can't change that, but running routes, No.

I agree with you because you're sitting there explaining I'm thinking, like, like me, I would have to be out there and see formations and like you know, yeah, but as far as like movement.

In the play, yeah, I mean that's to me.

But then Friday, I've never practiced slow, So my Friday practices, I'm getting everything that I feel like I need out of that practice. And then when the games come, I mean pretty much, communication is key to me. If I can communicate with my tackles were going pretty much. If he say he got this, I'm going I'm doing the opposite what he said, Like he blocking him.

I'm obviously blocking him. Process.

That's how it works.

It's simple. Yeah, we make calls.

He said, hey, triple triple too, Yeah, exact guy, that's it. Like it's simple. And then like as you get older and older, you start realizing it's the same everywhere you go. These offensive coordinators, though, they they have like this, I just want to call it my way. When it's a triple, they want to call it a double. When it's a double, they want to call it a pin. When it's a pin, they want to call it.

It's all the same thingguage.

Exactly, And it's like what really matters that's the players knowing the play and going fast and that's it. And if you switch up a bunch of shit all the time, it's gonna be a bit of a pines. That's that's the tough part that we've kind of have being in Tennessee.

This is our our third coach, this is your third this is your fourth.

Yeah, this is your fourth coach, And it's hard to gain that consistency of everything. And for offenses, people are like, well, is it different running this or that? It's like it's kind of like there's everyone has a different type of offense, but it's like do you call power more? Do you call outside zone more? Because everyone has the same ship to play, so so it's like you just so like doing another offense isn't difficult. It's just having one play

I do too.

Like the way he sympathies, sympathizes.

You got it, dude, Hey, this that's the best part of a pod.

Dude, what you want do whatever?

We call saphies if you want, we'll call simpaphies.

Now coach simplifies the way he does that.

I feel like it's gonna help the team out. He makes it a little easier. He's shortened the verbiage of the play so Marcus can spit it out and get it out as fast as possible. And he didn't change too much, so which I think we can play faster, right because some coaches coming here and they don't even care.

They like, I'm changing everything.

Second, got this fucking trend. Welcome to the bus baby, first pod. This may be a long one, this one, this podcast. No train, it's not gonna be too long. It's gonna be all right, de this happens every It's pretty much.

Done now right next to a railroad.

Well, yeah, I think the character of this place, dude, I love it. Honestly. Yeah, we got the AC on. If you're tuning in just now. Yeah, we got the Onkay, get get eight, get over it. What's gonna be?

You know.

I'm like, hey, you know, what are you up to today? Like, I gotta be prepared for him.

But FaceTime, I love it, dude. I love because the thing is it's more personal. I don't like texting either, and I'm not good at it, dude. I don't know.

So we did it, and then we did a couple of basic podcasts like a what episode zero episode double zero, and you guys had to put like this this sound stuff in here, which honestly looks sick. You guys did a great job. And then Will bitched about the audio, so he got the good audio.

But it sounds good.

Will is the most frugal NFL player I've ever met in my life.

Dude. He there's a couple out there. It's a little more than off.

Who's pissed, who's pissed?

You off.

We got a dinner. We go to dinner, you know, credit card roulette. So Me, Mike Campanero, and Will would be at Jeff Ruby's like, hey, let's creit card roulette and we would throw a fit.

I wouldn't throw.

These dudes.

They want to hang out every day in the summer.

Yeah, which is cool.

I want to hang with the boys, Like, yeah, let's all hang but any we always have to go eat, like a couple of times. Yeah, because you live and Taylor always wants to play credit card roulette, Like, yo, I ain't doing that.

That's the homework. Yeah, you like, I'll pay for by Yeah, Like, no, I'm not doing that. Let me just get mine. Yeah yeah, And they would just trash me, dude, because I wouldn't play credit card. I ain't Mikey like you ain't, Taylor that stuffed stunting at you.

It's a fun game, man, it's a fun game.

We do it all the time. Yeah.

How many how many meals you pay for during the season?

I probably paid for like three at the most end. I'm pretty I'm good at it. Man.

As long as you don't throw a heavy card in there, you should be all right.

Dereck Henry. Dude, he said, my cards are heavy.

Yeah, you throw a heavy card or the girl, the guy gonna always pick that last because they're gonna feel.

Him like, oh that's money, that's a smart real Yeah, so I never throw that heavy card. You're throwing your heavy nfl P A card that a black cations?

Like, do you just slip your SAMs card in there instead? Dude, that might be the instead of doing your heavy card. So you put like your driver slices in there. Look at you put that?

They don't They can't tell. They just feel it.

So usually when it's heavy, they drop it and get the next card. That cats always trying to like stunt on you, so they throw that that black card or the gold card in there.

It's trying to stunt man.

You got everybody. They'll do anything for cloud.

Yeah.

I'm like, here goes Macy's card in the bag.

Who the fuck is a Macy's car?

I don't have a mason card? Got a Mason's card? Still, I don't.

I don't even have credit cards. I rather spend my own money.

Do you shop because you you all about fashion?

You know, I used to be crazy with the Barneys New York. Now I'm pretty much all vintage market and stuff. Yeah, I'm like all on the the band tees and sweatpants now. I mean I really went super vintage this last few years.

So have you have you been the eightiests dot com? No, they got like I guess they do like old vintage T shirts, but they have prints for it so they can make any size you want. They can do like old like Friday thirteenth t shirts.

But it's not it's not really a venty.

That's true, but it's a it's a fake vintage. It's a fat, but it's still a vintage.

I feel I'm all about this and the like stinky smelly.

I don't even watch it like I just put it on straight where I get it from THEE.

I see that. I feel like that's that's such a cooler way of fashion to me. I see dudes walking Ja Vinci and Saint Laurent.

Short these things were these I ain't gonna lie.

The shoes, the shoes, the shoes.

I'm always gonna I can't wear.

I don't understand those kind of shoes though.

They that shoes, they go, they fit ship my personality. I'm like super yeah, like dirty and like these are like super dirty and heavy.

Like they ugly.

How comfortable those shoes are super comfy, but like it fits my person that like most people look at me and they you know. Now, I used to try to be the best dress every week for the games. You didn't give it, ship didn't care.

Now I'm just like sweatpants and in a dirty ding.

That's I think that's a that's a good move for a home game, but away games, dude, I feel like a good suit.

I'm always.

Know about Like you know, everybody's got their respect it.

Here's the thing, I don't think, like you buying that Saint Laurent stuff all the time, rocking Gucci all the time, what you're trying to prove?

You just spend the money on nothing, losing money you can't and then the next here they come out with something else and it's.

Not even cool.

It's not even cool looking like vined stuff is dope.

It's dope, Like I ain't can't I bust if you go in my house vintage shirts. I didn't get rid of everything pretty muchet vented clothes.

Would you open up a vintage store? You got enough clothes?

Yeah, I got enough clothes, right, Yeah, he want you.

Yeah.

As soon as I seen it, I'm like, bro, I'll buy it from you if.

You five grand for the bus. I almost pay three grand off my bus.

Yeah. I was like, yeah, I'll buy it for five because this is this is the kind of bus that you can pull up to anywhere. And if you got vintage T's jeans, furniture, whatever, it's gonna sell just because of the bus itself.

We gotta get this thing running like a year or so. We got to see this podcast does. But what we gotta do is when we make a website or whatever, well, if you want to throw some clothes on there, I can do some limited stuff and then it's Delaney Walker's clothes and people that buy it, it's boom, Like you just throw us like ten percent of whatever.

I can do that because like obviously we can go to flea markets and kill Like we go to Kentucky flea markets, just rack up in the bus.

Is that where you go? Yeah, like no, I can drive.

I can cost like fifty grand and get this thing going going.

Like yeah, we can do what y'all saying.

And I can go to the fleet market and just rip close, like rip close, like literally, man, they're selling these clothes for like a dollar, like shirts for a dollar. It's just selling for twenty and we sell them for one hundred and twenty.

It depends twenty he said, zero, dude, had he had one one? Hey, yeah about.

Right.

I'm talking about like one hundred and twenty.

I mean you can get like Scorpions, you can get Exadly, you can get the band Scorpions Okay, yeah, sorry, you can get like h Kid rock shirts. You can get Marilyn Manson whatever which whatever shirts we find, and it depends if it's like late eighties, early nineties to early two thousands, Like we can kill them, bro, Like you don't this stuff is in right now? People do People is paying like one hundred and twenty dollars for holes in their shirts.

Seriously, some Kanye West kind of stuff.

No, No, I'm talking about like a rock band tea from an original rock band tea with holes bleach stains on it, and twenty dude.

That's what we'll do when we start doing when we start doing merch, we'll have the bus merch and then we'll have like a well, it'll just say Walker on the side click that vintage walker. Click it done. What's it? God, it's got the Lenny All in it.

I'll telling you I'll be killing people want to buy all my stuff. Like I'm on DP pop. If you never heard of DP pop, check it out with the Deep Pop. It's just it's just an app where you can sell like vintage clothes, pretty much anything vintage you can sell it on there. And it's just meant for like that community of vintage sellers.

And was it like d p op?

Yeah, it's pretty live. I'm on there at twenty four to seven pretty much.

Or I'm the markets are state sales anywhere where I can just get some free clothes pretty much not free, but get some cheap clothes.

Now you do you buy most of the stuff to sell it or you just buy it to want it?

Right now, I'm just I'm I'm I'm in I collected. Yeah, I was gonna say like, I'm just I'm just hoarding it. Like if you go to the house, you're gonna be like Bro you need to stop like it's it's kind but you're thinking, no, I got a vision.

I got a vision.

I like, when I'm done, i may open up a shop something and I'm going to kill it. Like I'm gonna have just my personal stuff, but I'm also have stuff I want to sell.

Pretty much, dude, We'll definitely get something going because I'm down. I'm down to do something like that. I'm down to get this bus mobile.

I just I mean, Atlanta is like the boogie South.

Yeah, it really is. National's kind of boogie sometimes too. Now now yeah, when we first got here, it was like that was only five years ago too. It's crazy, huh yeah.

Now it's like, I don't know, I can't tell you.

It is crazy how much people talk about because I've only been here a year and everybody's like, oh yo, you have no idea how much it's grown.

It's changed. It's changed so much. Yeah, you don't even understand.

When I first got here, it was like you got here in thirteen. Yeah, thirteen, we didn't even have a skyline like now we do. Like it's crazy.

It's starting to get up there.

Yeah, it's starting more and more and more.

But the funny part is they building all these apartments and they only like thirty percent full all of them, and you're constantly building more and more and more.

But then it everywhere.

Yeah, but they don't realize, like the rent is so expensive, but the minimum wage is still the same.

You have to raise the minimum wage to get people to break these aren't means.

Yeah, well the apartments to the A lot of these things are not well built.

These times aren't great.

Aren't well built, and they're going for ridiculous amounts of money and you can rent them out for do you. I got an Airbnb three three zero two unit be Foliciau Street if anybody's interested. But that thing, yeah, we'll plug Christmas.

I won't put the address on there, but we do.

We read that thing out, dude. I read it for seven grand a month. Dude, it was like not even twenty five hundred might be twenty hundred.

I don't even know. Yeah, but that's all you're not gonna find that.

It's a solid little spot I'll be on.

Usually you'll get seven or eight doing airbnb. Yeah, like a long term renter.

Yeah, my long term renters out soon.

But yeah, you're doing long term. That's different. You know what I'm saying that Airbnb like I don't know.

I know it's airbnb capable. Came to me and was like, I want to long term rent, and I was like, you got it?

Ball Oh cool, because I you know, I didn't airbnb and did some some strange things with a little bit of change in Airbnb. So I don't know like how people how people could just like rip them out to just you really don't know, like what what what's it?

What's what's more?

Just saying like, you know, trash the house pretty much.

Yeah, well if it's not yours, I feel like like I get into a hotel, dude, I go a little crazy sometimes. Yeah, especially for drinking with the boys.

Dude, I'll throw off Oh yeah your bro did that to my place.

Yeah, bro, my brother did. Yeah that was a single. Yeah, No, that was hilarious. He wasn't that bad?

Yeah, it was kind of bad, Taylor so bad. Years later we talked, we have this one.

We have one night we went out. Dude, it was wild. We went we we were at Delaney's house and we had a bunch of people over there. You were in twelve twelve twelve back. Yeah, and dude, you had a nice little spot, so you had a good little view of the downtown and everything.

It was.

It was a cool spot. And you had that that Honda motorcycle. You still got that just sitting in the middle of the living room. That's a smooth little.

That's a deal that's that's a deal breaker.

Yeah. So we have like these people over and like this is like miss Me and the Laney. We're both single, and we're getting little crazy. And my brother ends up coming over and he's just boozing it down. He's drinking a bun. We're all drinking a lot, and my brother leaves. A couple of minutes. It comes back and his eyes are all glossy and he's got like that bloodshot look. He's been throwing up unto Lanny's toilet. And so I stay the night at the Laney's house and the next day,

Literally clearly we didn't take We put on the same exact clothes we had on that night, didn't take no showers.

He woke up like I'm hungry, let's go eat. I'm like, let's eat.

To you too, though with a condition Yeah, what's that?

What's the heat proteins?

Yeah, like your heat proteins get released. But like with conditioning, once you have your heart rate over a certain I want to say, like limit, and you're either working out or your heart rate stays above that, you start getting like endurance benefits from you know, mainly a sauna, but if he's working out in the steam room, he's getting that elevator heart rate and keeping it up there. Because like say you say you work out, and right from working out, you go with your heart rate up, go

While in the sauna.

There's like a lot of good benefits from that. But yeah, you're always getting the peanaty X in there.

Yeah, I stayed doing it.
