with the home boys. Big steal in the house, Big Jake Man, you ain't seen eight in a couple of weeks up in his motherfucker Eight come back looking like he just on swoop like you've just been just I'm trying to get on my how my nigga trade d v all on Instay. I'll try your like my nigga trade d You know what I'm saying. You know what I'm saying, hit them, hit them weights and Ship. No, I've just been sucking around, you know, uh with the kids. You know what I'm saying, trying to get him ready.

So I figured Ship, if he gonna be working out every day you don't give me, you know, trying to get ready for the next level, then I might as well get myself in there too. Yeah. Sure, looks like you can two piece of nigga. Mm hmm what they do? So are we cracking it off? What we What we got to talk about? Man? You did you know what I want to tell? I just want to start off. And and you know, I know everybody been hearing about my man Beon, right, m hmm. What's your opinion on that? Still?

I think Deon deal with the hell he was supposed to do, and we as black people, got a bad always trying to tell somebody what to do. Right. The first thing about it is Dion went in the Jackson State I think it was maybe three years ago, right, turned the whole program around, spent his own money building them a new practice field, spent his own money every time. See the problem me was every time Dion went to

the administration to ask for some more, some money for something. Hey, the keys need food or you gotta figure that out, Deon, the keys need this. You gotta figure out Dan. For Christ's sakes, how long is the man supposed to spend his own money. It ain't like Dean ain't playing football in twenty five years though. It's not like he had a pile of money just sitting somewhere. I think Dean did what he was supposed to do, because that's the

problem man. As black people, we have a problem of speaking out of turn on somebody else's situation all the time and not knowing what the hell we're talking about. Half the time, it was people actually mad at Dean standards for leaving the school. Dean did what he should have did because the problem with them HBCUs Deon can fix it by itself. Even if Dean would have went over there and stayed there, all he would have been just had the program where he would have been beating

the shell of every other team in his whack. Every week that wouldn't have been no fun. Dan did what he's supposed to do. Because I'm gonna tell you what the problem is now in college football is we don't have enough coaches that can relate to our kids. And when I talk about our kids, you already got kids coming in with PTSD at high school. You got the company, and they suffered from property. So in some cases they hundreds of miles from home and their mama don't got

no money to come there and see him. Right, So you got this white coach, and shame bag. Is there some great white coaches out there? Right? So this ain't about black and white. This is about culture. When you got a kid that's coming from the hood, he's gonna come in a certain way. He's gonna be very raw because in a lot of times, a lot of a lot of cases, he hasn't had that parental father figure in the house. You feel what I mean? Everybody is not gonna be like Corn or Chris. Do you feel

what I'm saying? That got a daddy at home and tell him what to do. So those kids need a certain other level of attention, and sometimes that comes in the form of a black coach. We got plenty of black assistant coaches broke, but on the B one level, it ain't. It ain't a lot of us. That's why I always route for a brother when he gets them jobs. I rooted for the brother Dante when he got the job at s C and the interroom I wrote. I rooted for the brother that not the dame when he

got that job. And I'm rooted for den in agenda to where I'm gonna do this and then I can. I mean, that's James, that's a lot of I mean, if I'm m you talked to certain people, you know, uh, students, Uh, people who represent hbc U, s um. You know, the emotions are kind of mixed. Uh. Some people feel you know, maybe he used Jackson State is a stepping stone, uh, because he wanted to coach at Florida State and they turned him down. So that's how you know. UM, so

that can have just been proven a point. But my thing is, you know, um, at what level do you feel like you know quote you know your blackness? Is that question because you know, any time you working in this situation, I mean, if you work, you want to be promoted, right, you want to be you know the quest of you as a man or getting to a certain statue or status is to become there. You know, if you start at the bottom, like they say, you start out at the bottom and you want to reach

the top. So do you feel that his top plateau should have stopped at Jackson State? I think you should have just continued there because what you did with those kids, the kids love that dude, and he did something like I mean, he really worked with those cats. He won football games. But you know to leave, why leave? Well, he had to, James, because that's situation. There wouldn't have gotten no better. Bro. See, look, let me explain something to you and James, I understand why you feel the

way you feel. Right, There's a lot of stuff that goes into running the program, right, especially when you start talking about the difference between the Jackson State un Let's say even UM even in Colorado, Colorado was not a UM. It's a Power five program. But they have they've been losing for a long time. Right, Even with that, they have certain resources from the stadium to the food. The kids heed to travel a lot of times in the swag,

those guys kicking the buses the games. So just imagine you're getting off the bus on a twelve or eighteen hour drive, right then you gotta go play a game. You an't got no money for hotels. As soon as you go out there and play the game, you're happing right back on the bus and you're going back to you know, you're going back home, right So I think with dan Man, I don't think he hadn't hit me gender. I think he would have stayed there had they done the right things. But he spent a lot of his

own money, James. You know, he spent a couple of million dollars building their practice facility for them his own money. Every time he went to the administration to ask for something, they would pretty much tell him, you handle it. After a while, you gotta get tired. And plus, my thing is this, you gotta think about eight Dean played football a long time ago. He just sitting on a billion dollars like that. I'm pretty sure his paper is straight.

But how long? And what's wrong with him? Progression? Because he is my thing. White folks have the privilege of going somewhere stand lying to a bunch of kids and getting the funk on. They do it to nobody question them, But we do it in progress. Everybody mad off us and we gotta take the motion out of it. Man, And he applaud him for the time they did have them, because he did some great things for that program. He

brought a lot of light to it. And he taking those kids with him because they just made a new rule that a kid can transfer one time without a question. He taking all those guys that came in with him, So he ain't been disloyal to nobody. Unlike some of these other coaches. They will go their recruit keids lied to him, get their bonus and get on that. After my son when he first went to college, man a coach lied to him all the way up there. As soon as my son enrote, the dude was out of there. Damn.

So it's a dirty game, man, And I'm not mad at them for leaving Man not at least big can. But can progression be I mean, like I said, yeah, everything is to reach a certain point. Right. You're high school football coach, you wanna maybe coach college one day? Right? You're a college coach, you want to coach NFL one day? Right? Yes, sir, is your loyalty and question because of your progression in this and in this. In this case, probably yes, yes,

even though I don't. I don't agree with it, but I feel because the average person thinks like James, you've gotta understand. The average person at home don't know the inner workings of football program. Hell, I don't know everything that go on behind the scenes because I'm not privy to it. Right, But on one case, I can see where the brothers may be. Man Like man, Diann was our savior. He was supposed to do this. He was supposed to make the hbcun because at the time, I'm

not gonna lie. It was pretty exciting because I had the thought of my head, like man gets amazing that for all the five stars start going to xbc US because he Back in the day, a lot of those schools, like the Alabama's, Florida's UM, a number of schools didn't even let black kids go to their school. This is just in the sixties on up to the early seventies. They didn't allow black kids to go there. And SC was actually one of the only programs back in the

all black keys to play. That's what made Alabama changed the whole thing around. Alabama had all these white kids that have been winning games. USC went down there and hooked their years. They couldn't stop them brothers. Was Compton running the brothers long beach, running the rock on them. It was too much that Bear Bryant said, funk this a y'all got a change that I need me some of them niggas down you're running the rock. So James, if it was you, you you would have decided to stay

at Jackson Well. Not knowing the circumstances of his his situation and just on the outside looking in, I would have said, stay and build something. You know what I'm saying. You know, it's more kids to come after the once he just worked with. So you gotta look at longevity when you're doing stuff like that. If you don't have a hidden agenda, then my purpose is to reach all the black kids. I can reach all the kids. I can't.

You know what I'm saying, Because if you look at it when he first started with that, you had a lot of guts that was but wow, and he taught those young dudes. He talked. He talked those kids out of the men. He made him grow up. Even with the shooting ship and all the ship that was going on, he schooled those kids he did, being honest, a good

kid I've had the pleasure to do. He has the influence too, you know, a tract of a lot of you know, like you say, a lot of like you say, still a lot of four and five star black kids who would have necessarily ended up probably at power five schools maybe to go play for Dion. You know, they would have, you know, took that chance. But again, Dion only coach for Jackson State. Everybody can't go to Jackson State.

Do you think him staying there would have a lot would have made other Black kids of that magnitude transition over to other HBCU schools because of Dion. Every kid want the best, right, every kid want to become a better player. But if I can't go play for Dion, why would I pass up going to an Alabama or a Clemson to go to a s othern or Grambling or one of these one of the you know, the HBCUs. How do you think a kid would do that? Okay,

Deon termed Jackson stayed around. They hid in the HBCU, you know, but Dion don't want me at Jackson State or their scholarships is full. But I got three four scholarships on the table from a USC Alabama, So should I turn them down and specifically look to go to an HBCU. How many kids do you think would actually do that? You know what, obviously, d n c DN

is a special case of coaching. His magnitude NFL Hall of Fame or one of the best dB, one of the best corners, if not the best ever playing professional football. Right if a kid get the opportunity, hell yeah, they go think about it. They really exactly, they go really really think about it. But at the same time, Jackson State only has so many scholarships available. As I'm saying,

everybody can go play for him. I think the way I look at it now is with him going to a Colorado, He's going to be able to impact even more kids because he's gonna have the resources. Now, he's gonna actually have the program behind him. So I'm gonna tell you Colorado about to put the bag behind him. It's about to be craiging in Coloraddo like it was when Eric de Enemy and it was there, exactly used to being significant school where kids would want to go play.

I'm just saying, you know, uh, having that influence at the HBCU level. You know there's only one Dion Sanders, So how much influence would that have made other four or five star black athletes want to go to HBCUs. You get me because like again you know it's den. Yeah. I if Deon give me an offer and I can go down to Jackson State and play for Dion, That's

where I'm going. But if I can't get to Jackson State and and am I front upon as a four or five star black athlete by not going to an h b c U, we you know what I do? Notice eight, it's a lot of black kids not noticed. The black kids that are signing up for the HBCUs are from families to where they got resources. You know, they're not necessarily rich people, but they can help their kids out. Because the rough part about the HBCUs all of them ain bad. Right, They got some of the

best educational programs around. And I think that's the problem with the HBCUs. A lot of those chancellors and chairman they are strictly focused on education. They don't give a damn about football. They don't give them about basketball. It was even um I heard a rumor now this is

just something I heard. I heard a rumor that Dion had some kind of TV deal set up right to where each school it was gonna be able to get a certain amount of money, and I heard the chances was like, well man sent that money got to go to this and that to the science department of them was like, no, if I go make this happen, that money needs to all go to football program because we brought it in. It needs to go towards building these

guys dorms. It needs to go towards getting a better food because be honest that the food was horrible down there when he first got you know, it was feeding kids but only sam becausept of the game. Damn. Versus You're going to an Alabama sc and they've got a nice hot plate of food for you with steak, broccoli and potatoes and stuff breakfast, lunch and dinner and anytime you want to eat food and places for you to go to kill and you know, you know we've I've

taken visits with the kid and all that. So it's a it's a big it's a big chump you. Like I said, Dion has a lot of influence, you know, But how how much does that influence travel to kids who actually can't play for him? Now do I go, Yeah, I'm a I'm a I'm a star athlete. I'm being looked at. But you know, outside of going to play for Dion, do I want to go to play for HBCU. Like you said, the money is scarce, some of the facilities aren't up to par, you know, like, well what

from what we've heard? You know, I've been to a couple of HBCUs in my days, performed or whatever, and they always seem cracking to me. You know what I'm saying, schools, they're not bad schools, and that's what I'm saying. Let me bear for Let let me correct something right here for all those people out there listening, I am not against anyone attending an XBCU. I think you should do what's best for you and your family. Again, do what's best for you or your family. I wouldn't never try

to talk about you at the goring to one. I'm just seeing in comparison and even of saying, who's a state,

it's difficult. Like San Jose States a Division one program, right, they got better resources than they would at a Jackson State or a Southern And you know one thing I didn't like about the h b c U s or small schools in general, when they play those big ticket games, like they go out and play an Alabama or somebody, and the key is out there getting slaughter, getting beat eighted than nothing, just so the schools can get it checked.

That wasn't cool to me because you can bring them dudes up there on the bus to drive eighteen nineteen dollars. They go up, they get their ass, then get put right back on the plus and get sent back on. It's not a cool experience for the kids. And this is what I want to do. See, my thing is this, if we go hold Dan accountable. H b c US have an incredible amount of wealthy alumni. Oprah Winfrey is from an HBCU. How come y'all not pressing her about

giving no money back? How she didn't get pressed the building, the stadiums. You got t rge G. P Henson, you got Tony Braxton, You've got your line to Adams, you got Jesse Jackson, You've got Debbie had An Erica I do Felicia Reside, Samuel Jackson, Spike Lee. Now all of those people and there ain't exactly in the big in their club and everything, but they got some well people on that list. How come your puff, p did he come from HBCUs? It's been some there's some famous people

to come from HBCUs. They're not bad schools, not at all. In some cases they have better educational programs than the main schools. Buff a million dollars, didn't he? Yeah he did? But you know what though, James yet Puffy gave money. My my thing is this right, I think us as a black people we can't help. But look at it

it it's kind of an emotional thing. I'm not looking at it from the emotional standpoint because I would just love because see, I remember I remember reading stories about those schools, how the Alabama's and all of them wouldn't even let brothers go there. If they did go that they with sicking dogs on them and ship. You know, people are still very prejudice down there, don't get it twisted. There's still a lot of racism that go down there. But again, Dion can only touch if he's at let's say,

Dean with the State at Jackson State. At the most he's gonna be able to touch fifteen to seventeen new recruits every year. Right, those guys come in. Everybody not going to the NFL first of all, just because you've got dean coach. No, don't you just gotta guarantee lock to go in NFL. Going to the NFL and actually even making the practice roster is like going to go win a lottery ticket because there are so many good football players. It's a whole lot of them. They only

go trash so many. They only have so many rooms. They only bring a ninety in the camp, and they're cutting them down to fifty two. You got fifty two people on the team, and not the fifty two men, only fifty I think fifty one of them dressed or something like that might be wrong. So then you've got a six team on the practice squard, right, So you only got so many jobs out there anyway. Right, the whole goal for you is to take you after school

and get education, right, become somebody in life. And that's what I tell more kids. We have to start looking for opportunities outside of actually playing the game of being a coach, because the coach go always outlast the player. Those brothers are making incredible money. Now, I was talking to the defensive back coach sc one day, and he was telling me, Man, when he left Oregon, he still had some money from there, right. I think they still

owed him like two million dollars. And when he left um Nebraska to go to Oregon, Oregon old him three millions. Nebraska owed him three million dollars, right, so they was paying him in three million dollars. Over the next season he went up to Oregon picked up another five million, went s s Eaton got him six seven million. That's not a bad gig. He's not damaging his nerves, he's not damaging his knees, he's not damaging his back, he's

not getting the head entries. He they're just coaching football. So we gotta start looking at those type of opportunities too. And now, in regardless the dion, the only one that knows what his true intentions was him and Jesus Christ. But I'm cool with what he did because I'm gonna tell you, white guys go to these programs and leave everything. Dog. They're going there for one year, user it's a stepping stone and go up. I've even seen coaches go to a school be there for two or three months. And

then get another opportunity like the contract. Theyre buy that contract out. They had other school by the contract out and they get on. They don't get a funk. Dog, I'm gonna be real with you. Beyond cares more about these coaches than the average coach. The average coaching Division one football don't give a funk about these kids. They just use them. You can just tell, man, from when they come in and you think about the average coach.

These coaches they come and sit in your living room and tell you, oh, man, your counts could be CREATI I'm gonna treat him like he's my own. You're going through it right now, and I'm gonna treat him like he's my own. Guess what they're doing. As soon as they leave your house, they're gonna go tell the dude next door the same ship. They're going to kid down the street. So my advice to anybody out there, pick the school that you want to go to, and pick

that school that you would be happy. Yet irregard with the coach yet, because that coach may leave one day. Because you gotta remember, we're dealing with people and the loyalty to these the only keys to these coaches are loyal to is the ones living in your house with him. And I'm not mad at that. White folks do it all the time. They're allowed to leave, they allowed to go, and don't nobody said, damn thing. Well, it's a business

as part of the game. But the moment the brother want to advance and go through his thing, all that motherfucker sellout. He this and that. You know what. I was excited when Dianne went to the Jackson State, but I knew what I said. Man, it's gonna take more than just him. We're gonna need like a whole influx of new people come in. Everybody gotta want to come in, you feel saying. And then you got a Shannon Sharp he said, it's straight up, he said, I went to an x b U. That's because I was a prop

forty eight nine. You have no choice. If I had had the choice chance to go to Alabama, Florida stinks. You've damn right, I would have been there, right. Why not? You think about the James. These kids want the bestness apparents. You want the best for your kids. Think about Line on Line will look kid. Now, Let's say Line started playing football and become the number one dude in the country,

and you're going on visits with him. You're going to Alabama looking at their stadium, You're like, damn, they're feeding you steak out, man, that I got this the recruiters tips light you want to eat steak for a whole year, man, I ate so many steaks and and just step three or four times. Their people kissing your ass and doing all this stuff. If you're a kid, that could be very enticing. You gotta think about it. These dudes team

mateen years old. That's very enticing. And then Dion was able to do the impossible by going to go U get these elite kids. He's those some kids from Alabama. Dion got to the point of where Nick Salem was hating, No Nick Saban get any kid he wanted from University Alabama. And add it was how the Dion mentioned and said, I think they down that sheet and playing and paying kids. It's like that was some old hater ass ship. I didn't respect. I don't respect the old way for that.

But Dion definitely made a splash down there. And the only thing I can say for Jackson State is you already have the momentum, they need to focus on trying to hire them another great coach, because they gotta think all of them kids can't leave and go with d M, but a lot of meals leaving to go with him. He said that when he came in, he said, listen, I'm bringing my own luggies for me and my lucky just Louis Vatton. He's gonna go. He's gonna make up

splash in the Pac twelve. And I'm gonna tell you why I do think it's good on one on one talking James, it's very hard for African Americans to kick jobs these universities. The more success we have, the more people see its successful, the more they go hire. We need more brothers working at these Division one universities. Hell, ain'ty percent of the kids on the team black? Why

not have more black coaches? Right right? I ain't really in the football like that, but you know, I've been watching him and I look at him and shape man, that dude doing a good thing. And like you said, he spent a lot of his money on it. But but if my kid was there, I have to make that decision from my kid. Both of y'all got shows that played football, so y'all know better than me. You know what I'm saying. So well, you would always have us to go back and talk to James, you like

I know him, this what's going on. I'll be able to get you a fight. And a lot of the James, it's really just common sense. Like I talked to eight about nephew, I talked to a lot of the homies about their kids and not tell them at the end of the day, you want to go somewhere because they ain't nothing guaranteed that coach gonna be there. That's one thing these kids gotta know. You go to a university, it ain't guaranteed that the man that brings you wind't

gonna stay there. I told my son that when he was going. I said, man, I know, these dudes seem cool and they're not bad people. They're just doing what that's for their family. You think about it, this is the average coach's career. The average coach jumps around just like that. That's what they do. Your figure dude gets out of college, he may play football. That's he goes to the league and played for two years. Right, he gets done with that, got his degree and stuff. He

gets a coaching job. He comes in as a grand assistant, right, which is like a pretty much the lowest one on the team, right, or he either goes into being a recruiting coordinator. He comes into being and becomes a recruiting coordinator, or he becomes a person in scouting, right, you know, recruiting to where he's messing with the kids and stuff like that, bringing me in on business, you know, calling the kids up and everything. Now, if you come in

as a chie you're not making that much money. But if you're coming in as a like a recruiting coordinator, I think they start off a hundred hundred fifty thousand a year, which is not bad for a young man. That's not bad at all. He gets to travel, he gets to you don't do what he do and what happens he is somebody usually calls that guy that's a recruiting coordinate, the grand assistant for a job. He sees an oldenness somewhere. The next year he gone. He may

go somewhere. He may be in North Dakota for a year being a defensive back coach. But what he's doing his building his resume. Right, he goes north to COVID. It becomes a defensive back coach for one or two years. Then he finally may get his opportunity at a big university. They may come call and he may have success at that small school, but then he decides, Um, he may get a University of Acre, which Division one school, and

say hey, we got a job for you. Now he's going from making a hundred to four hundred five hundreds in a year. Right, he may do that for three years. He may be there for five years. But then when the Alabama's the Prascas and all that coming, especially if he gets a defensive coordinator job and he's one of few games. Let's say he goes to University of Acre and he knocks off on the Ohio State one year or knocks off Michigan State. He could be the hottest

dude in the country. Everybody go be like everybody wants the young coach. That's what makes Lincoln Riley and all these other dudes so attracted people. These guys are young. Lincoln Riley I think when I first met him, I think he was thirty four, thirty five years old or something. I went out to the business. Chris wanted to go usit Oklahoma he was young, because that's attracted to the kids.

He's wearing the same shoes they do. He talked the same thing in some case, listening to the same music. So he's able to communicate with those kids versus old ass man. It's out there yelling and bargain at him, right, and so it gets going in one thing about it, like you got coaches out there like Nick Saban, who are very very good football coaches, very good football case. I think Nick Saban on Ben He's been in the National Championship Game eight how many times in the last

decade maybe seven and six a lot. He's always there. He consistently wins. Right, But Dion was getting he Deon struck a nerve with him me and this is a dude that shouldn't even be thinking about den Nick Saban said, Dion down that cheating because he has stole the player from He stole the player from Nick Saban. Well, he didn't steal a player, he convinced the player to come

to his program. I think Dean is gonna go to Colorado and be very successful, and I think is gonna be good for everybody at the end of the day. But Dionne couldn't single Hi Himley saying they say the swaging, no way, I think he was down there. I'm not gonna say he was wasting his time, but if he thought he was gonna go down there, revolution the way stuff was changed. Man, there's too much money involved. Either

needed a whole bunch of paper. He would have literally needed somebody like Oprah Winfrey to come in and say, listen, I'm gonna make a forty million dollar donation to the SWAG and that wouldn't even been enough money would have been I think I think people just because of you know, you know, people saying he brought in thirty million dollars and he brought in the you know, the big businesses and people who wouldn't have normally wanted to funk around

with you know, Jackson State or HBCU whatever. You know, he got people to start. You know, I want the want the funk around with it. So I guess people taking personal. You know that you know him as a black man first, you know, knowing the influence he could have on you know, these black kids. Um could could his influence start a fluctuation of of of black NFL x NFL players or coaches or whatever to you know, seek out hvc US for coaching jobs or offensive coordinator jobs.

And you know who knows you do know what the thing was? And that was one of the things. D brought him a nice staff down there. But from what I heard, guess it was being guess who got the money together? The thing the staff he did. He was telling the man, I need to pay my gosh, you know, these guys are here working sixty seventy hours a week.

So let me ask you another question, knowing what. Basically, when he took the position, he already he knew what he was up against, right, I mean it's Jackson State, you know, um what you know what was they you know, what was their record before Dion showed up. They weren't

winning too many games. They were very dismal program. So the excitement, I guess, and the hope for what uh h uh, you know, Jackson State or HBCU or alumni or whatever, past students whatever, I guess, the hope of what they felt that Dion could have influenced to help the HBCUs or the programs is why a lot of people felt like, you know, uh, he used us or you know, why not stay and keep that influence here and help out. You know, But like I say, once again,

would it be beneficial? You know what you James, what you turned down five million dollars when you're getting to fifty three hundred a year as opposed to getting five million. Like I said, all depend It depends on the kids. Now, you gotta look at what dem went through with that program, and now that he had a successful program, now they want him to stay and they think he should have stayed. But he said, I beg do different. I'm gonna going and do bigger and better things, and I'm gonna take

my kids and I'm gonna I'm gonna keep going. I'm gonna do something else, but somewhere else. I mean, I don't think you could be mad at him. It's just a decision that he made. So why is everybody piste off? Why is it all of a sudden now, oh prime time? He arrogant? He is he that you don't hear that about everybody else? Man? Because some people feel like he he used us as a stepping stone. I mean, but again,

and is that is it? Like my quest is to excel right, and uh that that's my if I'm in the world, whatever I do, whether whether if if I'm wrapping, My quest is to say a lead right right if if if I'm working that a company and I'm starting at the bottom, I one day want to become the fucking prisoner. I will hold this motherfucker right, That's my goal. Nobody thinks small. Right if you that ambitious cat, you get me like we we the podcast, whatever we do. We wanted to go from here to here. So you

want to you are? Are you looked upon? And then why are you frowned upon? Or or you just used me as a step in stop? But this is what I think eight and I'm being serious about it. Let's say, hypothetically, let's say he did have a plan all along. Right, Let's say he did have a plan all along, because I'm gonna play Devil's advocate for a minute. Dion has coached his kids at every level, which is rare. Right, He coached his kids in Pop Warner. It's time for

him to go to high school. That dude went abroad a high school dude. He made his own high school and put some studs around his kids made his high school. When now he was done, his kids out of high school. He would have got him a job at Jackson State. Now he's moved him up. I'm pretty sure in the back of his head he said, you know what, his son quarterback is a bad motherfucker. He threw for like four thousand yards, ran for like another thousand something like that.

I believe could be wrong, but but he was a good quarterback. He knows that kid is never gonna have a chance in hell to winning the high sman out of his wack, right. The level of competition just ain't the saying. He's gonna had to be a somewhere at minimum like a Colorado. You feel what I'm saying exactly. Let's say he did have in his mind that I'm using these places to step the stones. Everywhere he left was better. He left a better condition than it was

when he came. It's almost like somebody coming up here and burrowed my tie hole. They brought my tie ho they bring it back and say, oh man, I wrecked your tie hole. But guess what, and he pull up in here in a new Bentley truck or something like that. I'm not gonna be mad. He left. Everywhere he was had a better condition, Like I think he genuinely cared about the places he was at, but he might have had in his mind the whole time, like I'm gonna follow my kids up with this whole thing, and my

thing is this. I can't sit up here in line and say I wouldn't do the same damn thing if I could, if you had the power, if me and you had the power, dog to say, we go coach our key to every level. Let's say Karin go to school and they say, hey, we think you a hell of a coach. They offer you a coach and uh, and you can mess around in there. Let's say even if you're not coaching your kids, you're just getting to

be around him everything. Right now, Let's say he'd mess around to go to the NFL and they said, you know what, a we really like you as a coach. We're gonna bring you in a scout now, you with your kids. If you could do that, when you do it, you goddamn right. That's what I'm saying. We expect people to hold up to expectations. We won't do our damn selves. We expect stuff by the people, we won't do ourselves.

I'll be sitting up there lying like a motherfucker if somebody offered me an NFL job and I knew I could help my son out, not just my son, possibly old son, possibly Lionel down the line here. Yeah, I'm gonna go take you to put me in a position apart. I can put kids home, right, I can put kids on and change their life and give them an opportunity. So I think we get mad sometimes that people for

doing the same ship we would do. And it's not like let's eat now, I'm I'm even playing Devil's advocate. Let's say he had in his mind planning it, he went down and spent money, got don it for the program. Now, I'm gonna tell you what to be real fun up if all them people that was looking out for him and don't neate money to the program just because Dean gonna stop doing it. No, you have to be genuine

with two attentions. If you go get that kids some money and do for him, keep on doing for him, regardless of whether it's Dean coaching there or motherfucking m c A coaching here, do the same ship. I mean, yeah, I mean, I'm you know, I mean, you know the attitude to people, so you know, it's just unfortunate that you know, you can try to put yourself in a better position. But you know some people look at it as you know, um, when it comes to our people,

you get me. We're very opinionated about certain situations. And you know, half of us gonna be like, hey, good decision, man, step up, you know, next level, and the other half of us gonna be like, that's some fucked up ship. You know. So sports always bringing out the emotions and people. It's the same thing. And when when Lebron left Cleveland, you know, I'm gonna die hard Cleveland Cavaliers fan from the Bron from Cleveland Browns, like everything Cleveland. That's my seat.

That's where I'm from. When Lebron left Cleveland, after us having that shitty team from decades, me watching them motherfucker's lose game after game. The last time, the last time Cleveland was good was when they had um, when they had the one team, not the Calves good. Remember back in the eighties when the Calves had a decent basketball team, right, so just imagine meat, we had a sorry yes football

team the whole time growing up. The thing we finally winning out and it's with a niggad is from the land. That's with a nigga is from Ohio. When he left, Dog, I'm not gonna lie. I was pitched off the motherfucker. I didn't go by burn his jerseys and ship, but I had to sit back as a chrons man and understand, man, his motherfucker making more money than me. I'm sitting up there worried about what the funk he got going on.

He needs to go do what the hell is best for him and his family, right because he will tell you this. He knew Lebrown left he still do a game and ship for a while. Dolf North, he said, well, this dude don't open up school, he don't feed people, he don't build houses for people. He still goes back and does what he needs to do for his community. You feel what I'm saying, and is the level of the level which people you know and uh opinion makes ship is you know it goes to a real high level.

Because it's like you said, why do I shaid, why should I give a fuck? If that? You know, he making a decision, making a decision that he feels is gonna better him as a person, better the situation, better for his family. And that don't mean I ain't gonna still influence uh my people, you get me. I'm still gonna encourage black youngsters to, you know, do what they can do and go to school, get your education, whether you come in here to Colorado or you're going to

Jackson State or any other motherfucking place. You feel me. So it's it's unfortunate that the motherfucker gotta feel like you know, you used me, you know what I'm saying, And now you've been to take off and go to the greener pastures. And who's to say it's gonna be greener. You didn't gotta make some of that money, but he just over there paper still that money back. Ship we've seen you know, Dogs and James. We all around the same dazed group. When you get older, you stopped thinking

with less of motion. It's more about ship for what it is, you know what I mean. It's like he ain't nonna need to get said. Man, that motherfucker he when he was a motherfucker Jackson. They have one way to me. I don't care what they're gonna do, to be honest with you, because the thing he was, man, he left that motherfucking good shape. They got a new practice field out of him. They got all kind of read it, all got responsor stuff. He going on about

his business. He's gonna go coach his kids. Now, I'm gonna tell you if I'm gonna laugh like a motherfucker, wont of them to get prefer if he wants to on the nfiling coach, I'm gonna laugh like a motherfucker. Let me tell this curve ball right, because it's our songs, some mothers ship. But Dion didn't he didn't, you know, he didn't leave like you said. He didn't leave the school and shambles. Uh, he didn't, you know, leave a bad stain. You know, we gotta winning record, we're going

to the bowl game and all of that ship. But and everybody really piste off and the ship. But we we still ain't We still ain't talked to about Uh. We still ain't focused on Brent far and then stealing money from the people of Mississippi, and that's swelling money out and and fucking over the welfare fund to try to get a fucking volleyball court built. But we focused on beyond leaving because he wants to go get a better job. It's crazy how motherfucker's picking shoes what they

want to focus on. Uh in in in certain situations, you get me right, you know what broke and it's always gonna be like that. Just like I said, it's coaches. They don't don't way worse than beyond. I've seen coaches bring a hole frock the lower the keys in and leave the next motherfucking day because you know, some of those guys get bonuses for signing certain kids. Right, I've seen them. Dudes come in and get their bonuses and get the funk on. Don't nobody say nothing about it.

But the kid is sucked over because he may be at a school he never He may be a school just because of that coach, just because he liked them. That's why I tell these young men we have to start learning to see in some instances, ain't nothing wrong with being selfish. You have to do what's in the best for you because everybody else is doing what's best

for them. Now, that don't mean you go fund people over or you know, you always want to carry yourself A classic conviction, right, But me knowing that as a little kid, if I was a kid going to a school, now I was, for one, pick a school that I knew I was gonna be cool that regardless of whether this motherfucker there or not, I wouldn't leave and go too far away unless it was somewhere that I really

like want to be at. Like there's some kids dog that they're bringing to go to university, and um, it may be a cat string to go to a house state Alabama or se. They don't get, but then who they head coach us if they bring to be there, so they're gonna be straight whatever. Right, you have to go into situations with the mentality that I am going to make the most of my opportunity, because really that

coach didn't do nothing wrong with you. Here you opportunity to change your life because you can become whoever you want to become in college, do education right, he gave you opportunity to get He didn't take the scholarship when he left. He gave you a scholarship. So he's telling you for five years you are going to be able to come here to get you a masters to the baxtor's degree possibly a master's may have a possibility of

going to the NFL. Hell, if the NFL don't work out, you have a degree, you have a very good life right alone. As you got that, bro, that's all you can ask for this. I've never left. I've never left no situation my son was in feeling like somebody owed him something because I feel like everything is on him. It's like, okay, you at the end of the day, you still have to go to class and perform. You still have to perform on a football field. So it's

all with him. Anyway that coach is there, don't guarantee him none of that because you still gotta go play. It's just like Dean's kids, Deon being the dad. You don't necessarily mean they're gonna get drafted in the first round either. You know God, you know God will and everything work. I'll find from But ain't no guarantees and that stuff. People, It hurt, stuff happens, you feel what

I'm saying. So it's like, at the end of the day, man, we all we come in this world by ourselves, and we're gonna leave his motherfucker by ourselfs So we gotta stop being so dependent on the next man, whether they black, white, brown, red, or whatever. They need to do their thing. You know, I see all these people writing articles and I say, man, wow, coaches lead programs every day. I've never seen nothing get talked about it wrote about like this. Man, there's a

lot of piste off people. Man, there are a lot of pisched off people right now. Yeah, it is. And I really think eight at the end of the day, Bro, this is what I believe. I think the man. I don't think he's a messed up dude. I've actually talked to Diane before. Dean is one of the coolest people I don't ever talked to. He's a real person. He tell you how he else. And I'm gonna tell you what. I didn't like all of these people talking ship behind him. When Dean was down there, he was kind of like

the going to the conference. I saw the most unprofessional ship. Ef. You had another black man to play the NFL that coached one other teams. Dion went out there whooped his ass. Right. He didn't want to shake the man's hand, first of all, but we're playing sports, man. Sports always has to be about carry. Not to sound like the old fogy, but it's certain stuff you don't do in the football field. Eight.

When we was young, you did not shake your opponents here, no matter what happened, whether you beat their ass eighties something nothing, whether they booked your ass adie something that you shook hands, you walked across the fields, you played the game was honoring class, especially you were head coach. I could see kids being mad at not shaking the enemy's hand like fun, that we're not going out there and not with the motherfucker's the thing he was bro

at the end of the day. You had people treating him like ship when he was down there. That was disrespectful. That coach let his kids disrespect Dion comes out of what the hell is punk? As you know. I mean, my thing is this, if I ever have I gonna college football coach and this keid on my team calling our position coach, you know that man, You're not playing on my team no more. You suspended I was calling Ship man. That just that was. Yeah, it's still ain't

cool because we have to address all that. See, we can't point the finger at one thing and not call the other stuff out it. It's like even when Jerry Jones gave that whole backhanded ass comment. You know how Jerry Jones respond to Lebron for pointing that out, Like why are you harut asked me about Jerry Jones being the picture with all the races, right, he's saying it's something like he made sure to say what Lebron has made the most opportunities and made a lot of money.

People have made a lot of money with me too. First of all, man, you're not giving nobody nothing For every million dollars you don't spend on a football player, you don't probably made five a team, So knock it off. It's a business, you feel what I'm saying. A business. See, I'm gonna tell you all something. The whole business of football is designed for to win games. Right. In the NFL,

it's about money. That's why you have guys um that may have certain stipulations in their contract, like if they get voted into the Pro Bowl. If you get voted into the Pro Bowl, they gotta give you a bonus, right, Or if you if you were a starter for so many players, they gotta give you a bonus. I guarantee you, man, you ask any players don't play in the NFL, they would tell you when they're close to getting that bonus.

A coach with mysterious they put their ass on the bench because these owners do not want to pay out that bonus. They may say, hey, man, such a section. If you know, if this motherfucker played five more plays, we gotta pay his ass two million dollars. They were six year ass down with the quickness or have a doctor tell you that you asked that you heard of some bullshit like that. You see what I'm saying. It's a fucked up business, dog, so you gotta treat it accordingly.

Now that don't mean you go out there and disrespect people, but you have to go out there with it in mind that it ails a business. So any and everything what happened, See, this is my prediction with college football anyway. Eight It's always the key is to Peter Price right. That's why they slowly changed the transfer route because they would tell kids like, how do you gonna tell a kid he can't transfer somewhere and you're living? Coaches great

contracts and league left them right. I don't understand this era because of my day. They' you remember this when you signed a recording contract of motherfucker's obligated to give you this in that contract. It didn't like that the football football was only I couldn't put out a motherfucking record and then go, oh yeah, I didn't promote my record good enough. So I'm about to hit the motherfucking

label portal and hey, hey, every other label, I'm free now. No, he once, once I signed a contract, I had to give the motherfucker a certain amount of records, and I was locked in for a certain amount of years. Exactly they made it. They make it down to where if

motherfucker could fit in. And let's look, a lot of the ship is for exposure and for the bread now, because let's face it, if if, if I'm a hot nigger at one place, right, but we're mediocre, but I'm hot, right, I could jump in this motherfucking portal, man, and now a motherfucker where I couldn't where I originally, where I couldn't go, Nigga could snatch me up. Now you feel me. He has got to be careful in that portal, bro, because they say something like I think is something I

could be wrong. I wanted to be throwing numbers around, but a good percentage of those kids that go in the portal don't get picked up by other kids. And I'm gonna tell you the other thing I don't like about the portal is the fact that it takes away from the high school recruise. Yes, it does. You see, football has to be a game. High school was the

life force of college football. Right if we start cutting that to where a coach say, but man, should I ain't gonna go get Why why might we go sign Karan from I here when I can get a dude that don't play even if he didn't play that much. Hell, he was on He was on Alabama's um played the special teams in Alabama for two years. I'm gonna bring them in. What it what it turns into? Bro? The game is slowly turning into a pro game. But the only kids people not benefited from it as the kids.

The coaches making millions of dollars. The schools are making millions of dollars, right, everybody except the kids. Now they're giving these kids these looking in a lot of things, but the school they're not getting them the money from the TV stuff that they are free to get sponsors

for people if they wanted. Somebody decided to come in and get christ and hundred dollars that year, he could take it, right, But he wasn't getting under that TV money and none observes the winning and that other stuff. But I do eaty body they needed in the IL. Just start breaking these kids off and leting them participate in the thing because they come into the same ship

professional athletes doing. Now. Hell, they can cut a kid in college football now, which is what was crazy to me, because one thing I always understood about college football, and I tell everybody that from my kid on the yours and everybody else line, when you start playing, you are not guaranteed a starting job. When you go Twitter university. You have to go earn that motherfucker. You gotta go

take a motherfucker's ship. And please believe, no matter how well you play that year, they're bringing in somebody the next year to replace your ass, and they're bringing somebody in a year after place that guy. Right. I'm fine

with that. But this whole thing about coaches going to schools and sign the contracts and making a commitment to be somewhere, my thing is this, If you sign a contracts, if you go be somewhere for three years, you need to honor your motherfucking contract and stay your ask there. You should have to stay there because you made your decision to go because you were impacting other people's lives, not just your own. You got kids, that's coming over there. So I walked there. I go on the road to

all season. I go visit your house. I go visit James house. I go over the tail line. Man, I really love you, man, we have fun. I'm gonna make you the fish linebacker that you could possibly be one people one people won't and Line don't trust me. See look he is and trust people they meet people. Look, kids are very impressible. That's why I'd never have asked

admitted to coach the team. That's why I ain't coached the last few years eight because I couldn't commit to the time because my thing is this, Man, I'm not going out working with no kids heads. I'm might gonna go out there and they get used to seeing coach steal around and I'm there one day, ain't there the next and this and that. I see how Line will get a text to me. Remember Line on somebody at one time and say it, Man, you forgot to get

me hug. Kids get at taxed to adults. I don't care if they little like that, dude to they seventeen and eighteen. You see, you still got an host for the kids that's been been coaching for eight because they attached to you. You will be whoever better than their brain. This coach has these kids as coached. These kids coming

out of high school feel the same way. They go there and trust people, and then it's a mind funk almost because you looked up man, dude just set up my living room at To me, they should have the right to get the funk on if they feel that way, especially if they don't have some motherfucker slip talk they asked and the going there. Because I'm gonna tell you, these coaches funk with kids heads. Man. It got so

bad over here. Man, while I had motherfucker's over my house at eleven o'clock at night, dog trying to convince my son. On the day of signing. Dog, my son was just crying it. When it came down to sign he was just round his motherfucker like this because he got one person pulling in this way another person. And you gotta think about it, bro, all of these schools

are very nice schools. You go to all of them, you want to commit to all of them when you go because it's all the same because they're showing you the best parts of everything. They're taking you to the coolest places. They're taking You're treating you like a star. You go to the hotel, You've got candy all in there and all kind of ship. You know what I mean. You're doing your thing. They're taking you out, showing you a good time. When you get that ship and nothing

like that, you're like, where is all the fans? There are there? You're here now, motherfucker, you're here now. Man. I think it's just a fucked up situation. Man. I actually wish Dion the best of lucky in this new endeavor. Man with me for him, no matter how bad to get. What I don't want to have happened is that he goes to and have a disaster of a season, because see, we can't afford the funk up he when we do

something wrong. We've not looked at as individuals. They put it on the whole black race because I know in the back of their mind. And then they said this for the longest, like they say, we couldn't play quarterback, or they're not smart enough to play quarterback. They can't throw the ball, they're not intelligent enough um, all they can do is run. We proved that wrong. They said we can't coach football. We proved that wrong. There are a number of different now there. I don't know if

we ever have a black owner in the NFL. Hopefully that happens one day. But as long as we got the system of the way it is, man, it's a need to repair. Because I'm gonna tell you what's about to happen. Eight. You got these springing leagues like the usf L and the XFL, And what people are not paying attention to. The XFL is putting their thing that open to people out of high school and college. So I'll be honest with you. And the XFL paying for people to go to school. They're leting you do on

school online. So if you didn't finish your degree or need to go, you know, get your degree, they're paying for that, even if you're not there, No more right, they're paying for that. So you think about it. If you're a high school kid that ain't really feeling a traditional school like that, no more right. It's just some kids, that's it's students, but they just don't like school. They don't like going to sit in the class for nine hours. They're going there to play football, right, So you think

about it. If you're running back, Let's say you're running back from Domingus and your family not really doing cool cook cool because the only people with that in their lives ship making money is quarterbacks and offensive players, right them.

The dude is making big money. If you're a corner, you can make sixty fifty dollars, you're doing great, but you're not going They're not gonn getting them a million dollar deals like these other kids don't got right, you know, like to do the sc already a million there, dude, Bryce said, Alabama already a millionaire. But those positions that they can demand that type of money, right, you have

to be realistic by it. Me myself, if I'm the number one running back coming out of high school and I don't like school, I barely made it up, that motherfucker. I'm considering going to the XFL and playing the spring because the thing is, there's the ticker to it, right. You don't have to go to college to get traffic in NFL. Now, the whole keep the NFL. Now, if you're an n C double A player, that's the way it works, right. If you're n C double a player, right,

you have to go to school for at least three seasons. Right, You're not making no money during that time. You gotta do this and do that. And you could go there and get fucked over. You can have your coach puts you when the bench talk bad about you when you don't get traffic. Right. But if you're a guy comes out of high school, I think the XFAIL top off of maybe seventy, which ain't no bad money for playing

fucking ten games of football. You know you're making seventy racks and held the or the backs in there making half a million dollars. You know, the quarterbacks always make money. That's what I'm like. Damn they get ten times like wave more money than the regular you know players, right, But the quarterback is the man and the team. Right, So I'm thinking like this, like you're looking at J. T.

Daniels that came out of Mother Day. You know he got hurt of s C and him been a couple of bad situations, right, he would have damned they have been best to come out of high school and play in the XFL for three years, right, even if he wouldn't have played his first year and set the bench ball for two years and been eligible for the draft. They draft him out to XFL and say, hey, he don't you're gonna start seeing that in a few years. Watch to see because it's almost getting the weare. It

don't make no sense to go play college football. There's too much sip they can happen. First of all, the motherfucker this dare Go probably not be there no more. You probably have two or three coordinators so a year, and that's very important. There's two there's two positions on the team, actually three positions on the team that that impact you. If you're a quarterback, if you're a right receiver and you're a dB, if they bringing motherfucker's and

it has changing up the program off day. Let's say you're a press man corner, right, you get a coach that that wants you to do some whole other ship, right, That fucks your game up, right, It limits your game because you're not doing what you excel at. Right. Let's say you're a wide receiver and the motherfucker come in you want to run a ball seveny times a game. That's gonna piss you off, right. The thing is, it's not a bad move to go play in the XFL.

If you are a high school football player, you're going there and get your degree. You played for three years. Hell, the NFL probably like you even more because guess who plays in the XFL former NFL players. Everybody in that motherfucker's been in the league, some of them kids for former first round trafficks. So if you go out there ball against them for a long time, hell, you're gonna be ready. You're gonna be more prepared for the game, and you will be playing in college. Think about it.

The game to turn to pro this and only people not benefit as the kids. Dog, That's all I'm saying. You just got to watch out man with this ship. I just, you know, like you said best the Dion in his situation. I hope people are able to uh get over you know, the fact that you know, uh that he uh took the job at Colorado. You know some people who wanted him to stay. I get it. You know, I got a lot of you know, people upset about it, and a lot of people say, hey,

you gotta do what you gotta do. So it's just because I'm gonna tell you like this and we leave it like this, everybody else doing what they want to go get your paper? Huh right your paper? Dog? Is everybody else doing it? Dog? So so I don't know why it should be different. You know, we appreciate you all for tuning in and eight man, you came with the dudes tonight we were to start looking. You pick the top of too a lot more often. Dog. I just you know, it's it's it's a lot of being

going around. Also, just on one quick note, you know, I also see that they they arrested, you know, a couple of people in takeoffs, you know, murder. Uh so you know, uh, glad that that's going down. Also seen some ship today where they say the family is you know over you know because you know, when you're young like that, you usually don't have a will. So it's kind of interesting to see how that's gonna play out, you know, with the family and you know what you know,

you know, money always fucks people up. Money and material ship. So you know, my nigger had cars and jewelry and you know probably homes and ship. You know, no telling what was in his bank account, so you know it's unfortunate, you know how that is. You got managers out there. You got homeboys that like helping with the bookings. Ain't

no telling how many deposits, Niggers don't care. And now you know, once you're sitting that deposit, that money ain't coming back, right, And you know, how about you think them dude is getting there getting the least couple of thousand the show? Yeah, I'm sure at least you know that they were stars, man, they were huge, and you know, forget the money, man. The saddest part about that whole situation is that that kid adn't even got a chance to live his life. Man, he wasn't even thirty years old.

Yet he wasn't you know, he wasn't He was a young dude. Man, he's a baby, and you know what, making all that money, and just because he was making money don't mean he gotta live. Hell, I don't think I really became a man, dogs, will I was thirty years old. Don't get me wrong. I was a man, but I was immature the motherfucker right. Well, you feel me, you know, prayers, man, Prayers to his family, man, his people. Man,

that that's unfortunate situation. We just gotta do better all the way around, bro right and you know, you've got another dynamic in this now because they said that the guy that allegedly shot him, everybody is in shock because they said he was a good dude. Yeah, what's your good dude? But you know what, James, it comes back to this ship right here. Man, you could be the nicest dude in the world, and all it takes for motherfucker's to say one thing to set somebody off door.

The next thing, you know, you do something you regret that you can't take back. Right and be out there on that road, man, you be you. You keep your head up and watch the motherfucker's got there. You're not

saying about me? Is is I've come to a time where, you know, a lot of situations like that I tend to avoid, you know, um, sometimes being young, sometimes being you know, you know popular, you know, having angs or whatever, you have the attitude sometimes of you know, invincible, you know um, And especially when you're in a position to where you don't have beef with a lot of motherfucker's. You you like, you know, I'm cool with everybody mentality, But like I try to tell motherfucker's you can be

that person. But it don't mean the people you around are, you know, And it's unfortunate. Like I used to tell niggas, um, you know, when I used to travel and take ten fifteen niggas with me and ship like that, I would be the most humblest nigger on the planet. Cool with you, yeah, I mean, disagreements we can settle like men, talk it out whatever. I can't control the other fourteen niggers in the pack. You get me, and I might know a few of those that I could talk to, but you

can't control everybody that's roaming with the crew. You feel me with that cruise ship dog, I learned the horrid way. I did that one time, taking motherfucker's what your dog? After that it was just me and my DJ though. I mean, it's just unfortunately, you know, because everybody is their own man at you know, I'm saying, you know, I don't give a funk. I'm my own man, whether it's me and you or it's me and fifty niggers,

I'm my own man. And it comes to a point to where you can't tell me what the fund to do. And if if I'm that type of motherfucker, if I feel like I'm getting off, I'm get off. I don't give a funk who it is. I don't care. You get me. You could be my best ace coom boom in the world, but you can't tell me ship. I'm gonna poorly staying out and I'm gonna go. You get me, and I don't care about the situation of who it is, or who it might be, or who might catch or whatever.

I'm my own motherfucker. You know that, just like I know it. So you just got to know your surrounders and know the motherfucker's you're with. And I'm type of nigga. If I can't count on my hand on my one to fill I know that nigga, that nigga, then maybe this ain't the place I need to be. You feel you can't control everybody, you can't control them. I don't give a funk who you are, whether you're the nigga with the hundred millions and you leading the whole pack,

you can't control a man's actions. I don't give a funk. You get me, and some of those actions, unfortunately be misguided and may be fun up everybody not thinking like you. You're thinking, Hey, I'm gonna come here, be peaceful, get my eyes back to the crib and the night is over right. Everybody don't hide you. So I just gotta watch your surround. Just man, watch you. I tell my son that all the time you get me, you just gotta watch you. You're around. Man, you give me what

you can't control, you can't you. I don't give a funk if you you would have packed, you would have packed six kids, and and one of them motherfucker's want to snatch a snicker. He gonna snatch that motherfucking There's nothing you can do about it. And now y'are all gonna get caught for that motherfucking pizza candy. You get me, So watch who you with, don't be influenced by ship. And then sometimes you just need not be around the motherfuck stay. You can't get no ship at home, can you?

That's real, the boring motherfucker always you do what man? Somebody say to me, Man, I forget one of my uncles. He said, Man, ain't nothing going on good at eleven o'clock at night. He's ain't nothing going on good at the level three o'clock in the morning. It might be some ship crack and steal and left. We know you have for sure. Man, alright, I appreciate your fellers.
