Please make sure you hit that like button. Please make sure you hit that subscribe button. Thank you, thank you so much for getting us. Oh Joe, We're

And if you don't, if you don't like us, give us a one star.

Nah no, I ain't nobody ain't no, I mean hocker jacky do not like us? You know, you know, we're talking about our life experience.

We talk about sports, we.

Talk about things that we've been through in life, and most of the things that we talk about it should be relatable to everybody. Everybody, So there should be no reason why we should have a one star. Just pretend like we're driving over and we're we're offering and giving

I think the thing is o cho also is that you know, sometimes, you know, you have these perceptions of athletes or celebrities or entertainers or famous people, and you think they've lived this perfect life. And what we try to do is try to peel it back, the layer of unopen the curtains to let you know that Shannon Sharp and Chad John's o Chasenko, we haven't been perfect.

Ocho.

We're gonna do something a little different tonight. We're gonna start with the Lakers that Pelicans. The Lakers dominate the Pales one thirty three eighty nine Lebron James thirty points, eighty six, five rebounds on seventy five percent field goals, one drecent from the three point line, one hundred percent from the free throw line.

And he did it.

He did that in twenty two and a half minutes. Let this sink in for the second for a second. The man is what probably less than three weeks away from his thirty ninth birthday, and he scored thirty points in Laker in a game the quickest in franchise history. If the quickest someone has scored, Think about all the great players that have done that Lakers uniform, Kobe Magic, Shock, Will Mican, oh Okay, Ad Pile, the Saw, James Worthy, who's the other guys? Conne not Conne Connie? Who was

And the man is.

Thirty eight years of age. You know watch this game. What were some of your takeaway from the game, Ojoe.

I mean, obviously my takeaway was obviously Lebron. You know, it's a testament to what he's done and how he's taking care of his body throughout the years. And I heard some comments that he made about Father Time being undefeated, and he's going to be the first one to give Father Time his loss based on his performance tonight in such a short amount of time and a game that is of some significance, being at the money that is on the line.

Unbelievable.

I mean, words can describe. There's a reason he has the Chosen One tattooed on him. There's a reason why we call him Nick King, you know. And he's living up to the hype. He's lived up to the to the hype and exceeded the expectations since he came out of high school entering the NBA. He is thirty eight years old, getting ready to be thirty nine and doing things that twenty some year olds do on a consistent basis.

Nothing.

I haven't seen a weakness in Lebron's game to this point. And for him to be able to be able to play at a high level this late in the game, getting ready to be thirty nine.

Is unbelievable, unbelievable.

And then the question to me it comes in is the fact that he is such an imposing figure that he's that much more physically getted than everybody else. Is he the best dribbler there is? He's the best shooter there is, no I think he just all around probably the best basketball player I've ever witnessed in general, and I don't even watch the game of basketball like that, just based on the little bit that I do know, he is fucking great at what he does.

I think the biggest thing Ojoe is that when you look at it, your best players are your hardest workers. Let's take the NBA. Michael Jordan one of your hardest workers. Kobe Bryant hardest worker, Larry Bird one of your hardest workers. Magic Johnson one of your hardest workers. You go to football, you look at the Peyton mannage, you look at the Tom Brady, you look at the guys that were talented. Now when we look at quarterbacks, we don't look at

That's a one of one, you know.

I like the Mona Lisa, that's a one on one, the System Chapel, that's a one on one.

Lebron James is a one of one.

But the amount of money and the amount of time and the amount of energy that he spends spends on his body and the time that he spends to be great. Because the thing that I tell people all the time, when you are a great player and you start to age, they don't compare you to great players that you're playing against now, that compare you to your younger self.

Yes, sir, that's what they do with the great.

That's when you know you're great when they compare you at thirty eight to when you were twenty seven to when you was thirty. And that's what they do with Lebron. And you're absolutely right. And I'm not saying that I was a great player like Lebron, but in my spirit as I started to age, Ocho, what I couldn't do is to give you the back to back one hundred, one hundred and twenty five touchdown two touchdown games. I could give you one in September, might throw another one

I just couldn't give you those games back to back to back to back.

But Lebron James, if you look at him, ojo, I mean, he's averaging twenty six twenty seven points a game, and he's shooting at him how he's shooting at a high percentage than he's ever shot before. At thirty eight, he can still get to the basket, he can still locomotive. But the jump shot of seemed like a Solotle pure tonight. He was perfect from the three point line and it was him because they got off to the fast start. The Pelicans will it down, they come up, they take

It was a rap. He took off. He took off, but he hears.

See the thing with people when athletes say, I don't even listen to the media. You might not, but guess what you got a homeboy that does your wife, a significant other, does your parents does?

So he heard what they said.

Oh, I think Bi and Zion are better duo than Ad and Lebron.

I think Zion has a high upside of this stage. Bruh.

You don't get great without being able to draw down and summons it up. Because when you tell me somebody better than me, I got to show you that they're not right.

That's crazy.

And also I have another question, like the Plan tournament, they're playing extremely where obviously the Lakers have to play the Pacers coming up.

You know when they play, you know when they play.

They played Saturday?

Okay, boy, yeah, you know, you know they just ate that far from l A Yeah, A long possibility. Wrong, strong, you can go to you're going. You got two tickets? Hell, I don't even know if I got one yet.

Okay, okay, let.

Me know where you you joned over there too?

I mean, yeah, you know they got a spirit flight for two I already already looked it up. They got a spirit flight for two hundred and thirty four dollars, and I can get there. I got to make a stop, but I ain't worry about making no stop long as I get there.

Made the spirit of the Lord be with you on that flight.

Yeah, yeah, But what I wanted to ask you though, when from a basketball standpoint, obviously with them being playing and Lebron playing to the magnitude that he is he at his age.

Do you think you can keep that up?

Or will a d at some point have to come in and do it said at the beginning.

Saying this is his team, this is his team.

At what point will AD play like that and stop the inconsistent roller coaster week in and week out and provide some type of consistency where you know what, Lebron can take a night off and Ad can take over and get that twenty six, twenty six, eleven and five or whatever it is, whatever it is, he should be doing as good as he is.

I think the thing is, O Joe, is that what we've seen is that we look at the Lakers just this year, not going back any further than just this year, there's a different team when Lebron's on the court than when he's not. It's just remember how I said, a great quarterback gives you that comfort level that you don't hope, you expect. That's what he does. He's the calming effect, he's the medicine. He's no matter how helter skelter it gets, no matter how big a lead the opposing team got,

They play. Okay, Oh play with that damn screen. Do what's wrong with you? Right? But you right? Oh Joe, you're right back outside. You run?

How many games could you run if you play basketball? We played basketball, I could run ten eight nine, ten games all day, all day day. We played football. We running up and up and down in the fields and were running up and down the road. When you young, you can do that. And that's what they got them young gun them young legs over there. So the Laker a gonna have to be careful or not to get in an up and down game with these young guys. Now to say that they got to slow the game down.

Wasn't it mean anything If they haven't a playing tournament. They having a playing tournament for a.

Reason because it's Lebron.

We've got to find another way to minimize anything that he accomplished. Remember when he won the bubble, Oh, the bubble? So what did he What advantage did he have?

Yet?

What advantage did he have that the other teams didn't have? They found out, Okay, we're we're gonna hate, We're gonna have a championship. We're gonna go down to Orlando because the circumstances require us to be in a quarantine setting. Right, Hey, everybody's gonna go down there. You're gonna get quarantined, and you're gonna be in this bubble. Everybody's gonna have to stay down here. Hey, when you lose, you're gone. But as long as you win, you can. So everybody was

It ain't like that.

And the funny thing about it and it goes and not just relationships, just in life and journey where you meet people, friends, sometimes even family.

And when it comes to sports figures, sports figures.

Like Lebron, you think of the Jerry Rices and you see some of some of the great quarterbacks, you think those players are replaceable. There other other great players will come along, but those type of players you have to appreciate them while you're here because what Lebron is doing and what Lebron has.

Done, you.

May never see anything like that again.

Now you might get some close you might get some phenoms, you might get some unbelievable freaks, freaks of nature that play the game of basketball, But what he has been able to accomplish since reaching the NBA coming out of high school. I don't think we'll ever see anything to that magnitude, especially this consistent for so long.

But here's the thing.

Normally, guys that played this long they were big skaream. They were Robert Parrish, that was Kevin Willis, that was Dirk Navisky. They weren't athletic like Lebron. They weren't required to run the show like Lebron. You look at BC Ben Carter, although he played a long time, most of these guys came off the bench. Lebron James is a starter. He's playing thirty three to thirty five minutes on a nightly basis. Some nights he's playing thirty eight to forty

I remember my aunt.

I ain't gonna say a name, rust the soul, but she broke up with her boyfriend, and my grandmother really like this guy, go to church, he picked my on up, take or bring up.

When you need something, he would get it.

She broke up with it, and uh, my grandma said, well, I don't know why you broke up with it. She said, Mama, they plenty fish in the sea. My grandma said, yeah, but you might not catch you.

But that's a good one. That's a good one.

And so that that happening to a lot of people, especially a lot of women that feel that there's one thing about it. I'm just sure really the bounce off, bounce off what we're talking about about people being replaceable and always thinking with women sometimes when women with certain individuals, you get so much attention from other men, you get so much attention to other men you lose sight of what you got at home sometimes. And the funny funny

Oh no, they don't want you no more. Damn I don't want them.

Oh Joe.

And I'm not telling you something someone told me. I'm telling you what you what I know. Nothing makes you feel better than a new set of eyes. You see when when when she's looking at you, it doesn't feel the same. Is that the woman walking across the street and she turned back and look at you, yeah, or she doesn't she give you that smile?

How you do it? Something like that?

And so you have to be careful because I've been in situation is that I'm I'm like, oh, okay, you think you like you like to fifty build like a brick out house. Yeah, But the same thing that the one that you're with is telling you, it doesn't sound as good to the end.

Over there.

The funny thing about it is like, this is so funny. Me and real we talked about this earlier to day. It's so funny when you tell you when you're with real tailor kids something.

Over and over and over and over and over and over.

In the fact that they always hear a voice, and always hear a voice, they listen, but they don't do it right away. But then when they hear from somebody else that they don't hear from all the time.

And I got to say it one time and it get done right away.

Yes, it's some of the same concept and same analogy when you're hearing it from the same person all the time.

Hear it from your and I hate I'm just being honest.

When you hear it from your man, you hear it from your girlfriend or your boyfriend. Oh you look good, Oh you look beautiful in that dress. Oh you look gorgeous to day. But to hear from a different voice that you don't hear from all the time, it hits different. No matter what anybody says, it just does. It's human nature. It's natural.

There's no need to.

Shy from it. I mean, it just it is what it is.

My keys just say, well, daddy, all you all you you keep complaining, You keep asking us to do stuff over and over. I said, I wouldn't agg you if you did it the first time. It only becomes nagging because I got to ask gas over and.

Over, over and over.

Yeah.

But then I got to the point that I realized my kids really is like the moms. It was, I don't know what it is because my boys projects it curious. And so when I say something the first time or get done the first time is thundered. The next time was lightning right right? So I ain't I ain't finna keep telling you I ain't fin The tongue wrestled with you all night. I tell you one time, that's it right. So, because my Grandfachi always say, boy, you're never rational with

And why what.

A child asked? Question an adult? Why are we going here? Why are we doing this? Why we got to eat that man part? And Porter didn't play that, Mary, Porter didn't play that. And if if Granny says something, it was the same as Papa said something, because we already know. If Papa ever came home and Granny said, Barney, you know them boys, it was over. It wasn't no question, asked Mary, what did they do? What did they say? Barney,

There was no, Well, go ask your granny.

If he said, go ask Mary granny and she said no, don't go back to him because he's in earshot. It meant no, And she said, well, I don't know. You need to go ask you need to go ask Barney. I mean, why would I even go back to Grant.

If he said no? Right, you already know what it is.

They were. They were in straight lines with that. So the Lakers advanced to the first ever end season tournament winner will get five hundred thousand dollars, which is a lot of money to a lot of these guys. Now Lebron James. Lebron James is doing like one hundred and thirty million owning off the court five hundred thousand. But it's the fact it's a competition. When I shoot pool, when I've rolled dice, I'm rolling dice. I used to roll dice with guys. Hey, bro, what what is twenty

And I know that's their job is too.

If you're an athletic trainer, take my ankles to make sure I'm healthy and get back on the field. I understand the equipment manager is to make sure my uniform is cleaning up in my lock and all of that stuff. And I understood it was the janitor, the custodial services, and the people that prefer I got all of that, Ojo. I understood that. But it was just something in me because I was fortunate. God looked down on me and said, you know what, gonna be a football player and I'm

You're right, You're right.

The Patriots beat the Steelers twenty one eighteen. It's the first time in NFL history the Steelers, which is a team that was five hundred or better, have lost consecutive weeks to teams that was under five hundred by.

At least eight games.

In the second start of the season, Bailey Zappi completed nineteen or twenty eight passes two hundred and forty yards, three touchdowns, one interception. He made some play for the Patriots that we haven't seen at quarterbacks make this year, but the team didn't scoring to second half and only had one drive the game more than twenty yards. Steeler's in it? What when you watch this game? Oh Joe, what do you take away from it?

When I watched the game, I want to I try to understand for the life of me, how was Mac Jones starting this long? That was magn I mean, no disrespect, no disrespect to him. How was Mac Jones starting this long? When the Patriots offense looked like a completely different offense that I haven't seen since Mac Jones has been the starter. What I saw in the first half from Bailey Zappi, goddamn he fourteen for he fourteen for twenty one for one ninety six and three touchdowns in the first half.

But listen, there's your future right there.

There's your future right there, because the offense looked completely different.

We in week what thirteen?

We're in week thirteen, right, yes, when week thirteen, I ain't seen what I just saw from the Patriots all year long, and all of a sudden, Bailly Zappi's in his set can start and they looked like a completely

This is a game that they needed to win.

If I'm not mistaken, I think they really needed this game so they didn't fall behind. But uh, other than that, I mean, kudos to the pages they won. I mean they three and ten. It's nothing to God, damn they none the hoop and holler about, but still attle.

It was a little promise.

It was a little promising for them from an offensive standpoint, because the one problem that they've Bowys had is a quarterback position and turning the goddamn ball over all the damn time, even though Zapi had an interception.

Check this out out.

Joe shouldn't Marvin Harrison stay or should he go Marvin Harrison Ohio State?

I think he's a Martins Harrison junior junior. Check this out.

Hold On has allegedly been offered nil deals that would rival first round draft pick money to keep him at Ohio State for the twenty fourth season.

People actually think he should take it.

Daz Bryant tweeted, because of the nil deal, I would love for him to enjoy his college career and do something that's never been done. College football is more fun than the NFL these days, I tweeted, I said, Dad, stop giving these kids this bad information.

This is what okay.

Last year, the number one pick in the draft got twenty four point eight million dollars to sign, Yes, sir. The number two pick got twenty three point six million to sign. The number three pick got twenty two point eight million to sign. That's to put your name on an NFL contract. That's the money they got. The fourth pick in the draft got twenty one point nine million to sign. The fifth pick in the draft got twenty

I give you that.

You remember Marcus Latimer, the guy from South Carolina that had a first round grade toy's.

Need running back? Yeah, that coming through the whole, I remember boom. Yeah, so for me it makes it.

Oh, Joe, let's just say, for the sake of argument, there's a finance student pick.

Any college you want to go, right.

He's a junior, he's a sophomore, and JP Morgan comes to her and say, son, you know what we really like what you do? You above your head and shoulders above and anybody in your class. We're willing to give you somewhere between one point three one one million and three million dollars annually to take this job at JP Morgan. Now, what do you think the average college student's gonna do. He's gonna take the money because you go to college to earn a degree, to make money, So somebody wants

Yeah, but I think I think you're forgetting you forget about the money part in which they're trying to entice him to stay for another year. They're trying to pay him nil money that will rival that of first round money.

I'm not sure if there are they guarantee in No. Twenty thirty million.

Yeah, I would just getting ready to say that.

I was just getting ready to say that, are they going to guarantee him that kind of money? Because he would be probably the second pick. He's the best receiver in the country.

I believe he will be at least top five. I believe he'll be at top five. He ain't going past three. But I'm just saying that's top five, O.

Joe, Okay, don't even say five.

Top What I'm saying top five.

You know normally the top five picks, right, And that's why that's why I just missed the guaranteed money that the top five picks got. I think most most people suspect that Caleb Williams would be the number one overall pick because he plays the quarterback position, right. But but you need to stop because you got to stop telling these kids this because the risk factor with the NFL is just too great. We've seen guys. I mean it's a different ball game. You tear, you rupture your achilles

Money always the injury.

From well you know, you know this or that bro get your money because of the rookie scale. You it's not you, Ojoe when you came into the league. Rookies, I remember Sam Bradford got fifty million, never played it down, got fifty million.

Sam Bradford what fifty million? Fifty million off the rip from the round he was.

He was the last one that got the deal because what the owners did see let me tell you how the owners got slipped. They went to the players to say, man, we don't think players that's never played a down should get that kind of money that's making Peyton Manning and all these guys type money. What we want to do is put a rookie pay scale in and then we could take care of the.

Vets what they do with Joe.

Put a rookie pay scale in and then cut the Betsy them.

Yeah, yeah, man games chess, chest not checkers, fail forward up line and sinker. No.

I want I want everybody to get what the market of bear.

Yeah. If I go to South, if I go to.

JP Morgan, if I go to one of the Broken House and they want to pay me top dollar, who am out to say?

Well, you know what, this is my first you know, this is my first job. You know what. I don't think I worked with like two hundred and fifty thousand. I don't think I worked but one hundred thousand.

No, But I have a question.

Sure, now, you got to understand this is a power five school Ohio State. Ohio State probably have some of the most wealthy boosts that there are there is, Yes, now, depending on how true the facts are about them rivaling the money that he gets as a rookie going in. Do you think it's possible that the boosters could all come together and actually pay equivalent to what he would get as a rookie.

They could, But what happened?

But what would be your choice?

If it is that, I'm just curious to hear your opinion.

My opinion would be to go. My opinion would be the lead.

I'm trying to listen as a kid, pinnacle childhood dream of the son of the great Marvin Harrison.

You know where I'm going. I'm out of there. But I'm just saying.

If the money that from the nil deal rivals that of what he would get as a rookie coming in, what do you do you still stay or do you double up? Or do you say you know what I'm betting on my Do you say I'm betting on myself. I'm not gonna get hurt. I'm gonna go back and play again, get that bag and come back and hit him cross the head and probably go first, probably be the first pick next year.

This is the NFL, This is this is football. The risk is far too great. Oh yo, we've seen it all go away in a single play, Yes, sir, we've seen it go away.

They not. I don't. I don't believe.

Ain't no, ain't no nil deal gonna guarantee forty million, A guarantee thirty million?

Right.

We saw Caleb Wiion, We saw Shrdor Sanders getting five billion. You think of nil deal gonna guarantee more than a college than a coach?

Well not wait a minute, now, think about what school were talking about we talked about the power.

They're not gonna get. They don't guarantee him more than a day.

The boosts can guarantee whatever they want to. They can the boosters can guarantee whatever they want to. Especially listen to bring him back. You already know what's gonna come. It's gonna take hell and high water to do it. To even get him to thinking, Oh, you know what.

What's your goal? What was your what was your Tell me what your goal is? What was your goal to play.

In the NFL.

If somebody say, oh, yeah, if you can go to the NFL, but you won't have to go to college, are you going to college if you didn't have to go to the NFL, or you going to the NFL.

I'm going to the NFL.

Thank you, because I don't think. I don't think his goal was to play. It was a means to an end.

I got to go to college in order for me to get to the NFL.

But if somebody's going to hold on, if somebody you go to college to get a degree, make money, now, somebody wants to speed that process up for you, Ojo. If you're a student, let's just say I played pian I'm a pan a pianist. Yeah, and Carnegie or some some famed opera house comes.

We like you, right. They not turning that down.

Why do they expect athletes but most of the time who the athletes look like?

Oyo mm hmm huh who did look like?

You know? No, I said, yeah, yeah, so turn that downright, an opportunity. I can come back and get my degree. I can take our online classes and get my degree. This is the NFL. This is an opportunity. This is what you laid in your bed at night. I didn't late. Look, I'm just speaking for me, ojo, and I could say, I'm gonna ask you what you I did not lay in my bed when I was a kid saying, Man, I can't wait.

To go to college.

That's gonna be an opportunity that I can take care of my grandmother, I can take care of my family. I'm looking up at this, I'm looking up that ten roof, like man, college is one is gonna be at I understood. In order for me to get to my final destiny, I had to have a layover. It's like sometimes oo, you can't fly direct sometimes, no matter how, no matter what the airline is.

You got to have a layover. Yeah, college was the layover.

But if I could have had a direct flight, Well, I'm taking a direct flight, and most people, if costs is not an issue, they would prefer to direct flight.

Right, Yeah, most definitely, most definitely.

And if I get an opportunity to Joe to get thirty million. But the bigger thing is I take a year, I'm a year closer to two hundred million to three hundred million. Yeah, So that's how you have to think I come back. I can come back. I come back if I wanted to come back and have the college experience I did. I was, I was two a quarter short of my degree.

I came back. I didn't stay on campus. I lived off campus. Hey boom.

But well no, I mean people weren't taking the online classes like they do now ojo, and I'm not sure State had online classes at the time. But for me, it's a it's a no brainer. Yeah, that kind of money.

Yeah, you know, I'm curious if you can if if you in asking the chat, do the poll how many would stay and how many would how many would stay in college, and how many would leave. And I'm I'm sure that the money factor plays a big determination on whether people stay or not. But I'm just curious to see what people people's thoughts are in their opinions on

And you know, I think.

It would be your best interest to to end of the draft and and hit that next step.

You know, well, he had he has a father that's been there and done that.

You know. Sometimes I would give I would give my kids advice and somebody was give them the same advice, and it's just that it came from me.

Oh you my dad what you know? Right?

I would try to get my son pointers. He listened to me, he listened to the coach. I'm like, but your dad played the league.

Yeah, he play.

Yeah, I'm telling you how to run a route. I'm telling you what to do, what to do.

With the new voice that the new voice, the voice that might I used to hearing, o.

Cho, What do I know about football?

Nick Bosa outstanding defensive different defensive Player.

Of the Year.

Nick Bosa said, Jalen Hurst has been figured out. Jalen is looking at the rush every player. You have to be disciplined and not give him a quick escape route where he can get out, get get to his guys quick. It paid off. Obviously, we put the blueprint out there. Hopefully the Cowboys watch the tape. What is your take on Nick Bosa's comments and have they figured out Jalen Hurt.

No, they haven't figured out Jalen Hurts. Obviously listened to Eagles are ten and two. Eagles didn't play a good game. They lost forty to ten.

For nineteen.

I'm not sure what the end score was. They had Jayleen Hurts, Yeah, nineteen. They had Jalen Hurts extremely uncomfortable. Didn't allow him to settle it into the pocket and make some of the throws that were used to seeing. He had to run, he had to scramble. There were sometimes he had like six seven, eight seconds in the pocket and had no one to throw to the makeup in the DNA of that forty nine and defense and its totality is different than any other team all thirty

But as far as.

Him having the blueprint, other teams don't have the same personnel that the forty nine ers have to execute the same way they did when they just played them boys.

The other night.

So no, you didn't give anybody the blueprint because even if they do have the guy damn blueprint, you don't have the personnel or the players to execute it the same way the forty nine ers did.

Yeah, I agree with you.

And just because you beat someone that doesn't mean there's a blueprint.

You won, no now, and.

Like you you won good, You just win, you wont convincingly.

But oh, Jo, we've seen teams get beat I mean we saw my home and them get beat several times last year. So everybody, every time somebody wins, oh we got the blue the blueprint is out, really, dude, really one game? So now they've lost two games. Yeah, it's eat. Okay, you did a great job. You did a great job of taking away the quick throws. Yes, they want to run a lot of what we call underwrots. I don't know what y'all call them. In the day's time, we

I don't care who the lineman is. I don't care if.

It's Miles Garrett, one of those guys jump out the window. You better hope you're not in twenty In cover five, which is twenty two Man with the Guys back to him. He gonna yeah, ain't nobody back there catching him going that way?

So I agree with you. I do not believe that.

The pole play one more year at Ohio State, twelve percent go to the NFL eighty eight percent.

Okay, I figured that. I'm glad everybody's on the same page. I would love, I would love to know who the twelve percent is and why they would want to stay, But that's neither here nor the.

Mirph donated ten dollars.

I disagree that forty million can stay forty million with a bad organization versus a team, versus a need for a team. This is what nil is for. It makes college Who said so? Who is to say that Ohio State is gonna beat Michigan next year?

So now he stayed another year to do what?

So they don't win the Big Ten, they don't win the national champion of the College Football Playoff next year? Then what Mrph? Appreciate the ten dollars. We really appreciate you watching it. But see, because what you gave me is a scenario him going to a bad team. Now give me the scenario in which he doesn't win the Big Ten, in which he doesn't win the college football playoff and he gets hurt.

Now, why what.

You're gonna say, Murph, don't end another ten dollars to come at with another question.

That's a tough one. That's a tough.

One because you see what it is. Hey, forty million going to a bad organization. Okay, when is forty million dollars bad? Oh, Joe, I don't know who I mean.

Listen, I'm not saying forty minutes bad. But Bryce, Bryce Young, he got forty million, right, yeah, how they're looking over there?

Okay, he could have went back to Alabama, but.

He didn't go back to Alabama.

And you understand this, You see the circumstances of the situation that he's in now.

But you up, but you understand the o Joe, when you come out in the draft, you're not going to a good all up. So you think that Bryce Young is supposed to go out and be able to go to Kansas City or.

Be able you want to you want to go to Kansas City?

Come on, come on, exactly all the good teams got quarterback quarterbacks.

Wait, if you're a quarterback, where you think you going? It's just like in basketball, where you think you going. If you So you thought that you you thought you thought that Lebron James gonna come out and go to the Lakers with.

Shack and Kobe. If that way you're supposed to go.

No, I'm just just oh, man, that's that's tough, though. Man, that's tough because I'm feeling bad. I feel bad. Not not to go off topic, but I feel bad for Bryce. I feel bad for Zack. Now what now they got Zack Zach starting again this Sunday? Now you know, I'm I don't even know what to say.

Better say a get that money that demand Washington donated Shannon times are different now, guys getting paid more than some NFL not guys that's going in the first round.

And especially not on top three.

We talk about top three.

We ain't just talk about somebody just getting rat about the top three player.

We talked about a number one overall. First of all, guys that's not going in the first round, ain't getting that kind of nil money to begin with anyway. Ain't those seven guys going in the third and fourth and fifth and sixth rounds ain't getting no nil deals. So

One nil deal got last year.

Hit the last pick in the draft, the last pick, it's gonna make more than what should do Caleb Williams or whomever the top nil did. And can you see who got the top nil deals last year? And then give me what the thirtieth, thirty first, and thirty second pick in the NFL draft got And guess what, o, Joe, I'm closer to getting to the big payday.

Yeah, yeah, because.

That's what it's about. I'm trying to get this little bag to get to the big bag.

Bag barring injury, the big barring injury.

If guess what if I'm gonna get injured, I'm gonna get injured on an NFL field, I ain't getting injured in college college.

Yeah. Oh man, that's crazy. That's that's I think.

That's that's the discussion of debate that can go on and on and on because regards of.

What yourself, what if you if you ask a kid, what points you make?

That can go on and on.

Because let me ask let me ask you, this are different, Oh Joe, all the people that said, oh, you know, he should go back. If your son had an opportunity to make forty million, you tell him to go back to school, and it's easy to tell somebody else kid what to do. Now, this is what we know, O Joe. It's easy to have an opinion on what somebody else would. Well, this is what I would do when you know, damn well,

Double Bronnie's deal.

Now, last I checked, whoever got a kid dad named Lebron James? Now, which one of your kids in the NFL? Marvin Harrison? His dad is Marvin Harrison Senior. He ain't Lebron James, f right, So you I want to know what football kid, Shudor Sanders had the highest NIL deal.

He got four point one.

So the thirty first pick in the draft got four times what your doer got. Now you tell me what you're gonna do, now, o Joe, I want people at home to tell me what you're gonna do.

Well, I told you what I was gonna do.

I was just curious to hear other people's opinions because I didn't think everybody would agree on the agree on what you and I are saying about. Listen, were going to an NFL and, like I said, as soon as that's why, I said, please do the what do you call it the poll? I do the poll and just like I knew it, twelve percent say shit, I go back.

I don't know how. I don't know what they think about.

I don't think do they understand who Marvin Harrison Junior is. This ain't just know anybody. This is somebody that probably go maybe the second, maybe the third pick in the first round.

I think I don't think they have.

They're not understanding the context of who we're talking about.

Your kids, No way, there's no way, O Joe.

It's your kid. People at home. Marvin Harrison Junior is your son. Now you have to understand. Now, his situation is a little unique because his dad made millions, so it's not about money for him. But here's the thing. He wants his own name. He wants to be his own. He's like, Dad, I appreciate the opportunity that you gave me. Went to a very good school. I had the best of trainers. I had the best of the best. Now,

Go do it.

Your son comes to you, I can go back to and you know how inherently dangerous. We see those hits, We see those guys, see those guys non contact injury of.

Key leads a cl but tel attendant.

We see that, and you got an opportunity to go get foughty million, and you gonna say, nah, son, I think you should go back to school. Okay, So I wish I wish y'all the best with that, but hey, everybody's situation. Hey, money is not is not everything for everybody. So hey, that's what they want us to believe. I have at ithm oh Joe, a woman threw her burrito bowl at a Chipotle worker was sent us to two months UH service and a fast food job on Ohio.

She's still in jail. Then she locked up.

Well, she got to do twenty days regardless, all right, So when she get out, you gotta do thirty days. You gott to do thirty days, and she got to do the remaining sixty days.

At an employment.

I like that the judge was being gracious, jugs being because one thing that they don't do that people don't do, is they don't treat those in the service industry, fast food service industy with respect.

You know, they're very rude. They're very mean.

The people.

Listen.

When I worked at McDonald's, I'd never forget. When I worked at McDonald's was sixty second Treaty right across the street from Edison High School here in Miami.

I remember people treating me like like ship, like I.

Didn't be long. You know, Can I get some ketchup? Give me some napkins? Can I get a strong.

I'm like, whoa, relax, relax, RelA everybody, and every time, every listen, every time you turn around on Twitter, you gotta fight at KFC. You got somebody to the drive through throwing the food back of the person.

Food food.

I don't care what. I don't care what the restaurant is. Ain't no food that good gonna make me act a fool at the.

Restoratd throat and to throw the food come on now, depends on how hungry you are.

Depends on how hungy you are.

Then what about I saw the McDonald's, the lady with the blender hit the lady, and McDonald's hit the lady with the blender.

Yeah, she deserved that. She was snapping.

I think she threw the food through something threw a drink on her, Yeah she did.

Then it got that blending. It's like, hey this hold listen, hey, but that's dope. That's dope.

Now you do your thirty days and then when you get out, they should make up work at the same Chipotle that she had the incident at, right alongside with the lady.

Now the lady probably put the mets on them. Did she have to find another job at another restaurant? That's dope, don't yo, I get it. You know something, you get frustrated I mean, I've I've been in the place, and I like to be very specific when I order. You know, I don't want any catch up. I don't want it mail. I want this sauce. And then I get home right and I'm like, the burger got everything on it. I

Fat ain't that serious.

Everybody different though, everybody different, you know, like you said all the time, everybody don't play the way you play. So when they comes in little food man, you know people you know black folk. Now, there's two things we don't play with. We won't play by it. We don't play about our money. We don't play about our food. We don't play about our kids. Now, they don't play on nobody food, especially when you get it when you

You order specifically what you want.

And then it comes on the menu exactly what you order, and then you get your food, you check it before you pull off, and they got the goddamn order wrong. And then when you say something and you address the person, they got they got attitude with you.

You messed it up. But I'll tell you what I will do, Ojo. I will go back up there. I say, excuse me, you got more order wrong. This is what I asked for and this is not how it came.

Yeah. See, I can't do that. And I got a problem.

I have a problem when I get orders wrong or when they do get my order wrong. But which is very rare, being that I go to the same place over and over. I never take it back. I just eat it the way. It is always in the back of my mind.

You know what.

There are people that are starving and I'm sitting here complaining about that wrong.

But boom real we go.

Eat somewhere and they it makes me feel so bad for them to get her order wrong at a restaurant.

We're going to eat that and she's sending that food back.

That really hurts me. That bothers me. That bothers me.

And every time I look at it, I look at it almost in discust, like.

Come on, man, what were doing? Order? Right?

Okay, guess what listen there, just take the onions off. You ain't got to send the whole plate.

For what I'm gonna do for that steak that cost seventy nine dollars, I'm gonna give them fifty nine. Come on, man, oh you got my own. I got the pay wrong. We could even swapping in those swindlelow.

Sometimes sometimes it's just too much, though.

It just be simple.

You can just take it.

You can just take it off your plate like it's little stuff you sending. You you're sending Burger's back because it got tomatoes.

Charge somebody else. You can make money up, o Joe, you can make that money up.

It ain't no thing. Come on, Joe, they can make that money up.

Yeah, you don't understand. It's hard to explain. It's hard to explain.

I don't want to. I don't want to make that job any harder than it already is.

I don't want to make my job any harder either, Eaven what I didn't pay for I asked you hold on? Why you say I can have? Why you ask me the order? If you gonna bring it hot of hell you wanted to.

I know sometimes sometimes in the kitchen they make a mistake.

Sometimes they ma make me.

Sometime when I pull it out my money, I make a mistake. I thought that orders, O Joe, you know what I thought that hundred was. I thought that team was a hundred.

So my bad.

I walked up out of there. So you know it's supposed to be one hundred and fifty dollars. I gave you fifteen, not bad. I thought that was a hundred, O Joe. I really did.

See you never see see I I worked I worked in the in the in the serve the food industry, so it's hard for you to understand where I'm kind of really grass what I'm talking about. But I used to be a server. I used to be a cook,

So it's a little different. It hit different for me.

I can't I can't work in a cold mine and then complain about being dirty.

Yeah. Yeah, you're gonna have.

You're gonna have.

You're gonna have to You're gonna have to make show me. Either you're gonna become a lesson or you're gonna one.

Of the learn a lesson, learn a lesson, learns a lesson, one of one of the one one one I'm gonna happen.

Breede said, unking Joe. Love the show. But who's your top top five greatest route runners of all time? I believe number one is me.

Number one is me, Number one is me and any player with what Okay, you know what our ti you know what? Know you? I mean you you on Nightcap the Greatest rock runner O.

You know I play a lot of games. I play a lot of games. I always always horse around. But when it comes to that rock running, ain't nothing like that.

Ain't nothing like that. Ain't nothing that that like that.

And they are, and even those that are playing now and those from my day and those before me, they'll tell you that that boy is something serious, especially Barry.

Did you hear about j Whosia Manzada have a stalker? They changed their last name to his?

Yeah? Have you ever had a crazy stalker?

Yeah?

She right here in the house now? God damn rev. Yeah? How you how you think we got to this point? You ain't called the cops? Older, Nah, I won't call the cops on that boy. If you saw what I saw, no saw? So you you over the door letter in Huh. I ain't had no choice. I ain't had no choice, you said on.

Your big fans just got out. Three and a half of your relationship. Have been listening to the old podcasts to help me past time. Any advice from either of you on how to move on?

Wait? You got it. Have a three and a half year relationship, right, Yeah. The harder look if you invested time. M h, it's hard.

Yeah, because anytime you invest in something and it doesn't work out, it's hard.

It's not at that time, no, no, no, but.

Each day, And it all depends on the type of relationship and how far along. And I understand three years, but how because for me, I look at it like, how do I put this on?

Yoe? It's uh. Time is is the one thing.

You can't get back. I don't look at it as like I wasted this many years. I've wasted that many years. It just it wasn't meant to be. And it's kind of like, see love is funny, oh Joe. Love is Love is the only thing that will kill you but keep you alive the feeling.

And so.

It's kind of like when people ask me said, well, Shannon, and I've had people ask me like, Shannon, how do you get on? Like with death, how do you get on? I said, it doesn't get It doesn't get easier. You just deal with it better because you never get over it. Now, a relationship, it all depends on how involved because the more you see relationships is easy to get over when you're the one doing to break it up.

Oh you it's easily. Yeah, it's easily when you want to. I'm about to do it.

I ain't thinking about it no more because because before you made that decision, you probably checked out a lot sooner mentally yeah, mentally already, or you made before you actually made the exit, or you stomach summon's up the courage to say, Babe, this ain't working no more.

You probably had already checked out.

But when the other party says that they want to go in another direction and you're not willing and you're not wanting that to happen, it's tough.

Bro. Yeah, I'm telling you, trust me, it's tough.

Yeah, I mean, I mean, I can I can speak on I can speak on this. Obviously, you with someone for three and a half years. I started dating, honestly back in nineteen eighty three. And the funny thing about it is everybody left me. You know, since nineteen eighty three, every relationship I've been in, every woman built up the courage to leave me at some point. So I understand what you're going through. I empathize with you. I understand it does get easier with time. Over time, it gets easier.

Yeah, it's tough. You just have a better You have a better you deal with it better.

Yeah, most definitely. And then obviously I think about it at this standpoint, who was taking care of who?

Who was paying the bills?

So are you really losing anything outside of an expense?

I look at it from that.

From from that point of view, it's unfortunate. If you having trouble getting over her and having any issues, feel free to come on down here to Miami.

Uh.

You know, I can see you to some places that can that can cure you. And you know maybe two three days you probably wouldn't wouldn't remember who she is.

So just let me know.

You know how to reach me. Man, Just hit me in the DM and I got some friends out to show you around Miami. Yeah, you'll be all right, I got you.

It takes time, I mean, in the longer the relationship, the heart it is to get old because like you said, you invested three years, you've invested five years, you've invested ten years. But at the end of the day, and like when I was younger, O ho, and I'm still kind of like this.

Uh.

If I'm with someone and we meet that person together, I break up that person.

I break up with you too. M hm damn yeah wait so damn you were you tough. I'm just I'm just I'm just moving on.

I'm just it's just it's just moving on from that individual and friends and the friends that we that we met together.

Yeah, damn yeah. And it's okay. It's so, it's okay, you know, it's okay.

But it was.

It was hard. It was it was. It was.

It was easier when I was younger because I had other things to focus on. I was so busy with with my career, and now now it's a lot easier because I mean, you know, with Nightcap and ESPN and and trying to create other ventures and things like that. Trying to come up with other things back in pop worked. It's it's uh, it's your mind, is not. It's just like when I just had Undisputed and you break up and people didn't know, people didn't know what I was

It was that bad. Yeah, man, it was Joe, it.

Was it was, But I just I just always thought. My brother and I used to have a saying Mary Porto Rican thw three the hard way, and I always thought about that. Think about what you think about what you overcame just to get here, forget forget everything else, think about everything you overtame in your fifty years of existence, just to be in this very spot. And you think God is going to turn his back on you now. I got up one morning, I called my sister.

It was it was.

I mean, I used to have to be to work at four o'clock. Then, so I got up at three o'clock. I mean woke up and I'm on my way to work. I told myself. I told my sister. I said, buck, I'm all right. She said, thank you Jesus. I hung the phone up once I said that. Once, I said, I know you didn't bring me this far. To bring me this far, call my sister, because my sister's my sounding boy. Yeah, I mean man and my brother. We closed with my sister. That's my right hand. Now that's

Else, right, And so once I said that, like, okay, I'm good. And it was tough. It was tough for you. I don't.

I don't, and see, I like to think a lot of bad. I ain't never been in luck, bro.

It was tough.

It was tough, but like I said, and there was some things that happened that that shouldn't have happened. But I'm like, okay, I'm okay, I'm okay, and now I'm cool.

Yeah, we're cool. I wish I wish nothing but the best.

You know, what's funny though, when thinking about it, and everybody in the chat that's watching fellas ladies, those that in relationships, those that have broken up or parted ways with people that they love before is you never ever really see someone's true colors or true intentions until a situation is no longer can be convenient or beneficial. Yeah, when the situation is no longer convenient a beneficial, then their true colors come out.

Yeah.

That whole love and whatever it may be, it probably never really was.

Just the opportunity itself created the illusion that they actually loved you when they really didn't because the opportunity and the convenience of that situation had deteriorated. Yeah, and that's that's that's a heart. That's a harsh truth.

Yeah. It takes a special type of a person to be hurt.

And not try to hurt the person that hurts them, because our natural instinct. I mean, hell, do cheap shot me, I'm gonna get his ass back at some point time of the game, I'm gonna get you back. But at some point, as you, as we start to mature, we get older, it's not to get back, it's not to get even, it's to move on, and if I'm trying to get you back, I don't get to move on because I'm here, you're back there and I'm trying to get you back, and I need to be progressing.

Yeah, and once once you.

Would let blacks, Like I said, Oh Joe, I think that comes with age, That comes with maturity because oh.

And I think, and it's for me, is that just move on? You don't want me for whatever reason.

The new guy is more handsome, he has deeper pockets, he's more loving, he's more understanding. He commends you, he pats you on the back, he tells you how great you are. And that that was the biggest thing is that not telling someone I mean the love. I think the thing is that the constant praise, I mean tell It's just hard for me to tell somebody fifteen times in a day you look good and I love you and all that.

Listen.

That's one of the most irritating things, having to reassure someone constantly are the same thing over and over and over and over because are you lacking maybe self confidence or whatever. That's that's that has that's very draining, Yeah, yeah, very draining.

But and then.

I you know, different people oh Joe. This is what I tell people. I'm the most outgoing introvert that you'll meet. And I think people see me on television and they think, but.

I'm purely opposite. Yeah, I'm home and I'm quiet cause I like, I like to be by myself, you know.

Yeah, I can care on a conversation, I can go anywhere, and I can present myself.

But I just.

I think I think what it was is that I grew up when I had my brother, then he went to school, it was just me. So I would come home. My sister's eight years older. My sister's daty, you know, so it's just me and I go to college. I go to one party and it's just me. I didn't really hang out. I'm not in guys rooms, and.

I'm just I'm just. I'm I'm outgoing, but I'm an introvert and.

I just.

So it's hard me and relationships are hard. It's hard.

Maybe maybe that's why the fact that you're opening up a little bit about it, Maybe that's why you're so reluctant right now, because you've been through so much.

You've been hurt before, you love and.

Now you're just whoever you kind of haven't been here kind of.

But now I'm getting the better understanding and the people that are listening and watching getting the better understanding why you are so.

Difficult in that specific area in your life.

Yeah, I feel like I feel like I'm a therapist, O Joe.

But you have to understand, O Jo. I'm gonna, I'm gonna, I'm gonna. I'm in a different place now, so I have to be extremely cautious. Hey baby, Hey.

Pookie, say all right, no, forget you. Then just woke she just woke up, just woke up. Yeah, she just woke up. Taking a nap uncoach you. Jay asked another question.

He said, Uncle, I'm only twenty two years of age, but I have but I have a feeling I'll probably be alone forever with no kids, and I'm fine with that. Heard a lot of folks says that's bad faults. Society says that we should get married and we should have kids.

Bro. They don't it a real life.

No, the times are hard out here, Oh Joe, we're the last time you found some money on the ground. That's a hard time being right now. Usually I've been when I was a kid, I walk outside of water.

A dime or something.

Now you can't even find a penny on the ground.

We're the last time anybody that went the last time you find a pinion on the ground.

If you got to do it works for you, man.

Obviously there's always a social construct on the way things should go. Uh rules that we're supposed to bye bye for what like to call human morality. You know those guidelines you got to follow. But it don't work for everybody. It don't work for everybody. You got to do what works for you, do what's best for you. And that's that's exactly what I've done. Obviously, I didn't do anything the traditional way. The traditional way it should be done. I didn't do anything that way, but the way I

Young k Is math floor is just had ACL surgery. What advice do you have while dealing with an injury as a former athlete? Chad, Please don't say McDonald's. Well, just keep just keep a positive mind.

I just say the question again.

He said, what he just had a cl surgery?

He said, what advice do you have why dealing with an injury as a form of app as a former athlete, as former athletes, we're a former I still am.

I mean, oh, you ain't no athlete, but I am sha a flea. Don't say McDonald's. I'm not.

I'm not even gonna say that.

I've never had any injuries, so I really have no expertise on actually answering that. But I mean, obviously, tearing your aco, you want to get back as fast as possible.

Take therapy and rehab very seriously.

Take it just as serious as whatever whatever you were doing that got you hurt, as much as you love that sport, whatever you might have been doing take it just that serious to get back rehab, therapy, taking care of yourself.

I mean, that's that's the that's the best I could tell you.

It's hard for me to actually answer, being that I've never been in that position to have to rehab or have therapy to get back to something I love.

But you know, I'm sure you love leading around.

Bro.

You know me, Oh Joe, I'd have had both of my heels prepared. I had one and then six months later I.

Had the other. Right, bro, man, you I robot? Yeah, yeah, like you're curious. Say he'll don't lie, now he'll don't lie. Oh yeah, what.
