Wednesday Huddle with Demario Davis (10/4)

on SoundCloud. That's a little trifecta there, so please subscribe. This is the Wednesday Show, the Wednesday Show, the Wednesday Huddle, as we talk about out of and there three shows. We got one on Monday which is a recap, we got a game preview on Friday, and this is the sandwich in between. We're the meat, you know what I mean? For me? Did the sandwich there? So again Jets two game winning streak coming off a pretty wild game honestly

against the Jaguars. It went into overtime, first overtime contest of the season, pretty intense, almost almost ended up in a tie. That would have been interesting for sure, but it was a pretty exciting game. Yeah, it was really exciting. That's actually the first overtime professional football game I've ever attended, so to say the least, I was shaking in my boots there and overtime it was. It's a nerve racking feeling, especially yeah, how back and forth that was going. But

it's really fun. I love that kind of energy. Alright. So Jets traveling this week to Cleveland to the dog Pound. So the Jets, first of all, if you think about this, they've traveled Bills, Mafia, the Black Hole, and the Dog Pound, all three of which are considered very hostile environments. So I'm very curious to see how the Jets will on again. Have not won a game on the road yet this season, but amidst the two game winning streak, things seem to

be going well. Later in the show, we're gonna catch up with Damario O'Davis, who's making his return to Cleveland this weekend, so that'll be interesting. But you know, put yourself in his shoes for a minute here, Olivia. If you're a player that used to play for a team and you're traveling back to that stadium that you are a part of, and you're the visitor, how do you think that feels I think, especially going to like you said, the Dog Pound is another fan base that's kind of

known for being a little bit rowdy. I think that's gonna be a little nerve racking if I'm a player. Um. I know a lot of these guys try and keep those kind of things out of their mind. They try and focus on the game, which I'm sure a lot of them are successful at. But if I'm putting myself in a player's shoes, I'm thinking I've got to be a little nervous coming in front of a crowd who knows I was there last year. I'm now playing for another team. I'm in their territory, coming off too ins.

I think it's you've got to imagine there's a little bit of hostility there. Do you think that you'd have a little extra chip on your shoulder. Granted, all everyone says they play with the ship on their shoulder, as they should, but do you think this is like a little extra I think so. I mean, for me, I would want that extra chip on. I would have an extra chip on my shoulder. You know, you're coming back to a team that you played for last year, You're

gonna play against them now. You want to prove where you're at now. You want to kind of prove like, hey, I've I've still got it, you know what I mean, I'm I'm still me and you want to prove that, like Boom, I can run at the big dogs the dog pounds, the running with the big dogs in the dog not intended tomorrow. Davis also leads the Jets and tackle,

so he's been playing pretty well. We'll ask him later, but I'm very curious to know if, um, if he's planning on like jersey swopping with anyone, because you know, I'm sure it'll be nice for him and Josh McCown to go back who was there last year, see some of their old buddies, and then you know, jersey swapping is a big phenomenon in the NFL right now, and usually you see it a lot with former college shemates, like we saw last weekend with Jamal Adams and Leonard

for Nett and Dante Fowler of the Jaguars and Marcus May of course, the rookie safety for the New York Jets. So I wonder if these guys do it too, because you know, when you're young in the league, you start seeing your buddies, you want their jerseys, But if you're a veteran, maybe maybe it's a little different. I don't know, so I'm curious to figure that out. That'll be interesting

to see. I think it's always cool when guys do that, do the jersey swap, just because you know, it's it's memories and at the end of the day, it's a game, and all of these guys on the field are still playing the same game, so that's kind of cool. I do want to ask you a question, though, I've traveled Buffalo Bill's Mafia, then traveled to Oakland the black Hole. Now you are going to be traveling to Cleveland this week.

I'm not going to Cleveland holding down the four in get all Colorado out a wedding to go to, but Ethan will be going to Cleveland. What are you? How are you going to handle? And how excited are you to see the Dog Pound again? It's another fan fan base that's kind of known for being a little brutal.

I mean, I'm excited. Obviously. I can't compare it to Bill's well, I can compare it to Bill's Mafia from last year, and they're rowdy bunch I can't compare it to the black Hole obviously, so we're gonna have to compare it contrast notes here. But I'm excited to see

the dog Pound. I mean, I think that I want to see every NFL stadium and every NFL fan base, and Cleveland is one of those places that I feel like is under the radar because they're not they haven't been super successful in recent years, but they have a very loyal fan base and the Dog Pound is notorious, as we've talked about, and so I'm I am excited. I'm excited to see what the stadium looks like, what the energy is. That's not a pun because the Brown's

playing first energy stadium, so we'll see. I mean, I'm very I'm very excited, to be honest with you. And well, again we'll have to compare contrast notes. Come actually, come next come next Wednesday. What's the first thing you're gonna want to do traveling to Cleveland. You've got the Pro Football Hall of Fame out there, and I think the Rock and Roll Hall of the Rock and Roll Hall

of Fame is there. I don't know how far Canton, Ohio is where the NFL Hall of Fame is Cleveland, so that's something I don't know, but if it's closed, then you can probably guarantee I'll be there. But it's funny because our our team photographer was talking about the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and we're supposed to land thirty minutes before it closes. So I don't think we'll be seeing any rock and Roll Hall of Fame, but maybe from the outside, of course, you can, you know,

take a look. And not to mention that, I thought maybe it would be cool if the Cleveland Indians, who are set to play the New York Yankees. I thought maybe that are travel itemperaries would cross paths and we'll be able to see an Indians game. But unfortunately, the Indians travel on on Saturday because they play Thursday Friday, so we're a day off. But I'm excited to go. Um. Are you a rock and roll person because you brought

it up a little bit? Um, I mean, growing up listen to rock and roll because of my dad and my mom. You know, they always jammed to that kind of stuff. I mean a C D C U Pink Floyd. Um, do you have a favorite song? Queen? I really like Queen. You have a favorite song like back Black C d C. I also like another one, bites the Dust right. Um, it's hard, it's tough. Probably one of those who are my top three. I'd have to think of a third one. What about you, rock and roll guy? I am? I Am.

I actually have a playlist on my phone that I created based on so you have you seen Guardians of the Galaxy? I have, so you know how he has the awesome mixtape. So I made it an awesome mixtape volume E, like for Ethan and so I made that so I jam out to that when I want to

go back in time a little bit. But I think it was like fifth or sixth grade and my teacher, who was also my advisor at the time, had an at a club after school called a rock and roll club, and that was, you know, that was new for everyone my age because we didn't we didn't know anything, you know, we grew up listening listening to. Well, the ones that stick out of me is like Nellie and Eminem, like the Good Stuff, Flow Ride, Apple Bottom Jeans, Yeah yeah, yeah,

like the classic late nineties early two towns and stuff. Um, and so my first I'll never forget my first ever rock and roll song that I listened to was there were a pair of songs and they followed one another. The first one was Sympathy for the Devil the Rolling Songs, followed by give Me Shelter and give Me Ship. Thank you.

I appreciate that, and so give Me Shelter is one of you know, the top five, like whenever comes on, I'm jamming and big fan, big fan, and uh so that was my first introduction to it, and I love it. I mean it's not it's a nice refreshing taste to me because you know, usually I'll do hip hop or country music and then if I want to change things up, boom rock and roll and put it kind of it's

like a research pump up. I feel like, no matter where you're at, what kind of what you're doing, if you listen to classic rock, like a good rock and roll song just gets your juices going in. It's a good pump up vibe. It's a very I think it also has a very nice summer feel to it, you know what I mean, like Well Farmer, Huge Life, four Man, Little CCR, Little don See You Later. Yeah, but you know, falls good to fall Weather is phenomenal. My favorite actually

fall Weather is my favorite. Although that makes two of us. That's something we can agree on. Yeah, look at us, I'm in people, this is you know, take notes, this is uncharted right this down, because it's probably gonna be maybe the last time we ever agree on anything. I'll give us a benefit of the doubt. But you know, this is one of the few times we've agreed here, one of the few times. Very true. I will be going to Colorado. I was about you. I was about

to bring it up. You're going to a siblings wedding and am my older brother is getting married. It's getting hitched, old brother. One of five of us, one of five. They're five lands is. They're all like fruit flavored mentos. Of course we all have gotten them in our stockings for Christmas since we're young. Are you going to get your so if you want to fight, I'll bring my crew. Oh go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, crew, go ahead.

I'll just take the other of the voters on Twitter. Okay, all right, but are you going to give your brother fruit flavored mentos for his as a wedding gift? You know, my presence is going to be Okay, okay, you know what out here I'm here, Star, I've arrived. But in all seriousness, I'm excited that you're gonna be able to go to Cleveland. Um, is this your first mark the first road game for you this season? Okay, so we're

we're kicking it off in in Cleveland. Hopefully, hopefully we come back with the W. I'll be watching all the way from Colorado supporting guys there. Get out. How many times do I kick Ethan out of the studio? Well? How many times has she threatened to? And how many times do I do I actually get kicked out? Very two very different numbers here, probably like A andred and zero because because I end up one of these days,

I'm going to follow through with this. Okay, yeah, okay, maybe one of these days when you went to Twitter, Paul what Burn, all right, I'll give you that one. All right. We talked about Jamario O'Davis return to Cleveland. Let's hear from the man himself, Okay, on what it'll be like for him travel back to the dog Pound. But this time we're in green and white. Oh man, I mean, every time I step out on the field, I'm excited to play. Um, I'm enthusiastic. Um, you know,

lights out, lights out, ready to go. And you know that's that's what my mentality is in every game. Uh, I don't know if I'll putting any more every extra emphasis into this one. But you know it's cool, you know, going back to where I played that before. What what's the dog pound like? Man? I mean it's it's it's a crazy you know fan base. You know they loved their team and little b Browns. Um, you know they're gonna be rooting hard for the team. It's gonna be

a challenge to go in an environment and win. How did you like how you been to Cleveland the city before? No, no, no, it was it was more than you know I expected. You know that their fan base really loved their team and uh it's a great city to play sports there. Um, I enjoyed my year out there. What so I'm going to Cleveland, I'm traveling with the team. What what do you suggest to check out? They got some good places to eat it. Um, Barrios is probably one of my

favorite places in mixing Orios. Yeah, Barrios Mssican restaurant. I got a couple of good steakhouses and stuff. It's it's good food out there. Okay, I know jersey swapping is big in the NFL. Out Is that something that you plan on doing or is it like, you know, I like you because you're a veteran. It's like, you know, like I got maw jersey swaps in Yeah. I mean I always look to jersey swap with guys I played with in college. You know, I got old college teammates

and all the guys who came to Arkansas State. You know, I got their jersey. But you know it's I don't look to trade jersey with somebody. But if somebody from the team you don't want to jersey swap, you know, I'll probably right. So, so like if one of your old teammates is like, hey, tomorrow like a new jersey swap? Yeah, y yeah, yeah, I would do it. I would do it. What who's one guy that you're pretty excited to see that's so part of the Browns. I mean, I know

a lot of guys over there. Um, I grew up you know, a type a bum with a lot of guys. Christian Kirksey, Jamie Collins, all those guys in that locker linebacker, locker room, Tank Carter uh Nique, Alexander those are the guys you know that played close with you know, Joe Scholber. Uh, so I know all those guys on the close level because we were hunt together, not just on the field with off it, but when it's when it's time to play.

You know, I'm locked in, But I'll holly at those guys after we So on Twitter you said that you know this game might have a little extra meeting to you. Like what you mean by that? When you get this out of those lines, you know, it's they're all you know, have you know, deep meanings you know to them for for different reasons, whether it was a team that didn't draft you, a team that slept on you, or uh, you know, something of that nature. And so, um, being

and I played there, probably have a little bit more. Um, I can't speak until to the game. Then it's the Obviously every stadium has a different turf or whatever. Are there like certain things about First Energy Stadium that you have to like tell your teammates about, like where is it pretty much just turf? Because I know in Oakland you got the dirt patch obviously, Yeah, they're grass field. Is that different for you? Then? Yeah, you just change the cleats up as as simple as that. Yeah, you

gotta get a different set of cleats. Probably want some deeper cleats for grant. All right, and uh, but the rock and Roll Hall of Fame is the Are you rock and roll guy? No, I'm not a big rock and roll guy. Um. I had a chance to go and I didn't go. But I do want to go and visit the place you you visit, like the Quick and Loans Arena or anything. Yeah, yeah, I went to a lot of play. Yeah, I went out of Cals play wins out of Indians played during the World Series.

So yeah, are you? Oh yeah, I'm Oklahoma City Thunder. How excited were you? And meow? Oh? Man is big big? I'm saying that thing to go wint with for sure? For sure, yeah guaranteeing? Alright, is Chris Paul and James Hardening work? Are they gonna I don't know, I don't know. They better get somebody to help play some defense, that's what they're gonna need. How about on the East? Is Boston better than Cleveland now after the Kyrie trade or No? Not a chance, not a chance Brono was the East.

That's just that's just point blank. Yeah, probably until he comes to West and it just becomes one conference. Did you want d weight on the Thunder when he was when he got cashed out by the Bulls, that would have helped to you know, the more to marrier, the more to marrier, you know, I thought he might have a chance to come in too. The Thunder, I don't think. I don't think the Thunder done. You think they're gonna make one more big move just to have somebody, you know,

a little bit more depth on the bench. But what position, like a shooter, I don't know. It's probably just like a swing man wing, somebody that can you know, come in and get you know, extra few bucks, play a little defense, look good role player. Did you see uh roberts and airball at three the other day? Yeah, that's not Robertson's that's not his porte. Even though he can't make some threes, you can, but he's defended. Yeah, you bet all your free Oh yeah all the time. You

gotta give me this. If you're making a team with your teammates right starting five, you're just going up. I haven't had a chance. I haven't had a chance to whop, you know, with all these guys, you know, um, so, I don't really know what all they can do just from watching. You know, if you guys shoot, you know, we shoot bottles in the locker room, I'd probably take us a lot. He plays a lot, Marcus May plays a lot of Yeah, I don't know what play point guard.

Oh yeah, for sure, I can do it all. Okay, you you pass first or shoot first? Pass first? Pass first? Gotta get the teammates about all right? And then uh, last thing before I let you go here? Just coming How sweet would it be for you, you know, coming back from land three and two? Oh, that's what it's all about. The next one. Get that win. We're two and two right now. We've gotta be three and two. Failure is not all right? That was the Mario Davis

great stuff from him. Is always great guy. And no, you talked to him a lot. He's great dude, one of the best in the locker room. Again leaving Tackler, this Jets defense was inquired reacquired back in June because he was drafted by the Jets once upon a time, spent last year in Cleveland, got traded in June. Now he's back in the Green and White feels at home now. We're going to Cleveland. Baby, we're looking for that for that third win of this season, to go up above five. Olivia,
