It's a blessing to have you, man. We appreciate you, man.

How you living, man? How's that been treating you so far? Nah, man, I love it now. Except when it get cold, but. Ah, yeah. Don't worry about that. Ah, you done with your first winter here. Yeah, it was negative eight.

I ain't never been under 15. Yeah. Welcome to the meal with us. For sure, man. Yeah, for sure. It's getting real spooky out here, for sure. Obviously, man, we know what you do for a living, but also, you know, you get active on the court, man.

Yeah, a little bit. Shout out to my boy, Jay. You know what I'm saying? The highlights of you in the YMCA going crazy. What's up with it? You grew up hooping a little bit? Yeah, I grew up hooping with some of my homies, but when I be in the wild, man, I just be chilling, man. I don't even

really be trying for it. Nah, you be looking like LeBron. Yo, highlight reel is crazy. LeBron's life type is silly. Off the windmill. I'm like, the one foot bounce is nuts, bro. What position did you play in high school? One through five.

Like me? Five? I didn't play that much. What position did you play in high school? One through five. Like me? Yeah. Five. He played up high. What was your number? What number you were? I wore three different numbers. I wore two, 14, and 21.

Come on, man. 21, Sporta Guy is my number. So you... Childs and Darius Knight, too, that went to L lsu do you know who that was he went to uh yeah he from williston man oh man yeah he went to uh lsu i believe he was called back in the day i've seen him hoop in person a few times i think we have to uh play the answer okay yeah i think bro went to imG too yeah high school my shit since we talking about hoops yeah how many people

do you think are playing the NBA and the NFL you think they had that debate going how many people in the NBA yeah yeah

you think they can translate and what position I know I could've been a silly DB that's just me my feet like this no what

you ain't seen my feet nah oh you crazy? Hips is crazy, folks. That is nuts. Yeah, I got the hips. Oh, Ricky Barrio. Jesus Christ.

Just saying, bro. Feet work like that. I don't know, man, because you got a bunch of different positions. So you got to specify for me. Because everybody can play football. Let's just say they could be a wide out athlete. Most of the basketball players are about 6'3". They could be a decent wide out.

They probably all run about 4'5", 4'6". In that range. You don't think they run 4'5", 4'6"? No. What? That's actually moving a little bit. Nah, they can move, bro. What?

Trust me, bro. I run like a 4-4. Okay, I can believe that. Yeah, but it's people faster than me. Anthony Edwards definitely run like a 4-5. Yeah. Easy. Yeah, for sure.

He can't play football. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, that's crazy. He thinks he translates better to basketball to football than vice versa. Then a football player trying to hoop at a high level. See, every football player can't hoop. But I don't really think basketball players are as physical for the sport. Not at all.

I 100% agree. EJ still want to tackle that name that ej still want to tackle that name i told him football man flag i could get up i could catch a pass on him and he said i'm gonna let you catch the ball so you won't play football yeah i said bro it's flag bro you can't tackle me for sure man obviously growing up in florida was just a mecca of football um for you going crazy in high school how easy was it for you to decide where you wanted to go to college because i'm sure obviously you had everybody wanted you to pull up nah i ain't had everybody uh i had i probably had like 19 18 offers damn i mean that that's that's that's that's a decent amount

you know I'm not knocking it or nothing but most of the quarterbacks in my class they had like 30 plus damn

so I really felt like I was slept on a little bit but I mean choosing a college wasn't necessarily too hard for me I knew I didn't want to be

nowhere cold because you know I'm from Florida and I didn't want to be too far from my family so it's really just trying to pick the right school. And then Florida was the only school talking about education anyway.

So I was like, why not just stay at the crib? Oh, that's dope. It's hard. For sure. Lineage of a great school. You know what I'm saying? We talk about the Florida Gator Days, especially of our recent, we're a little bit older than you, but the T-Bowl Days.

And then it was the Glory Days, for sure. For sure. I was hearing about that, man. Nah, we talk about all the time some of the best college teams of all time. That Tebow squad they had. Percy Harvin? Come on, bro. Did that weigh on your decision, though?

Like the history of the school, or was it more so like the coaching staff? Like what led you to Florida? Nah, it was really like the staff. And then it's a great school to get an education from so i was like that's a plus yes the main thing i was looking at was how fast i can get on the field i might have a chance to get out there early so why not go to a school instead of trying to sit for two years yeah so like when they recruit you in football because i know in basketball that's the. You want to play as a freshman. Like, when you go to football, do they tell you, like,

yo, you're not going to play your freshman year? During recruiting, nah, they don't tell you. I went to you, signed a line, they let you know? Pretty much. Oh, that's crazy. That's why I couldn't. That's why I can't play football. But, I mean, especially in the league he was in,

you know what I'm saying? That's different. No, I mean, you got to. It's a learning curve, for sure. But, like, I feel saying? That's different. No, I mean, you got to, it's a learning curve for sure. But like, I feel like if you good enough. I mean, that lets you know like,

if you come in and do what you got to do, then you got a chance to play. But they're not going to tell you like, oh, you're not going to play. Yeah, I need a guarantee. I mean, if you go to the USA

and you behind Reggie Bush, nigga, sit down. Straight up. Wait your turn. That's why I would have been at Marshall. I'd be saying nothing if I'm sitting behind Reggie Bush, bro. I would have been at Marshall cause I would have been nothing I'm sitting behind Reggie Bush bro I would have been like nah I'm going to play at Marshall

until you get to practice you realize oh yeah that's Reggie Bush they got to play him today I'm going to Marshall cause I ain't going to waste my time I want to play immediately I couldn't do that like I respect everybody who can like red shirt and stuff I respect it I mean for basketball it different. Because if I was hoping, I want to guarantee a spot on the court. Yeah.

Football, you gotta learn a new system. You got to work out a new bunch of things. A bunch of people on the team anyway. Guarantee some of this stuff to other players anyway. So it's like, you got to be big already anyway so it's like you got and they'd be big already so it's like sometimes you got to sit down and just be quiet for sure i was gonna ask you that um obviously how was your transition going to college you know i'm saying you get comfortable with the high school age i'm like that now you're in a new age and you're in a real conference in football how was that transition going like you said obviously i know i had a size when you paused

but then you had to go in there and deal with them. They was already grown men in that situation in 1920 because they had them workouts. Yeah. I got to Florida when I was 17. Mm-hmm. I was already pretty big from my side. I was already like 6'3", 220, 230.

So it was like I was already big. That didn't matter. But football always going to be football to me. You feel me? So I don't care what league I'm in. I don't care how fast the other person is. Ball going to always be ball because I've been playing since I was a kid. So it's like it ain't nothing too crazy.

But it was a little different on my first time stepping out there. It's like, all right, these lights bright for real. Yeah, facts, facts. Man, 230 at 17, bro. You know what I'm saying, bro, you think your life, your life,

it was 160. You think you was about to go to Florida fucking with A. Richard M., nigga? I was 155 when I graduated high school. Boy, to lift you up,

were you the first kid with 15? Did you play defense in high school too? Nah, they didn't let me. Ah, shit.

I used to, I always played quarterback in safety. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But when I got to high school, they was like

nah we need you at quarterbacks you can't play safety so what are your favorite quarterbacks number one Cam okay

that's dope see that that's my dog Lamar definitely go Vic for sure I like Josh Allen

a lot I like A-Rod a lot I can really keep going for sure you a fan of the game yeah man I was thinking about this the other day looking at some I like Josh Allen a lot. I like A-Rod a lot. I can really keep going. For sure. You a fan of the game.

Yeah. Man, I was thinking about this the other day, looking at some old Madden covers and stuff like that. I was like, some of the black quarterbacks that don't get spoken enough. Dog, Steve McDare was one of the coldest that don't get talked about enough. Yeah, he was nice. I've been hearing a little bit about him. Bro, what a coldest. I had this jersey.

I wore that motherfucker every day. Don't say nothing. And we ain't going to start. I ain't had no gear, bro. Nah, I'm just talking. I'm talking, bro. I love Mama T. It was a lot of y'all, bro.

Y'all was a real Brady Bunch, bro. The Black Girls, bro. The Steve McNair jersey or the FUBU jersey? Which one? Nah, that 92 jersey. It's crazy.

See, ain't Rich too young for that. He ain't know nothing about that. Y'all didn't see that. People was already swaggy by the time you became you don't need to see that people was already swaggy by the time like you became

like 14, 15 y'all was already geared like yeah we had they go in the prime they suits tailored they got designer shoes my super prime

was a 4X K&G model nah facts bro my suit was 4X bro you wanted it like that yeah that's how we wore our clothes back then. Hey, that's the jersey.

Yeah. That's the one you wore. He wore that to prom. He got chill. He got it right with the prom. My suit was a 4X, though. Yeah, bro. We wore our clothes big back in the day.

I don't know if these look like 42. That ain't it, though. Nah, it wouldn't. It wouldn't. Trust me, it wouldn't. That's what I say. Y'all fashion is way way better Than ours bro

I'ma try to pull out a suit Like that one day Nah don't do that bro Nah you know Try to bring it on Me it probably won't be That crazy right now Baggy clothes

Coming back in What we was doing was absurd I was 155 Had 42 jeans bro Yeah Niggas was hooping 4X 5X t-shirts Under they jerseys

That was That was real to y'all Yeah For real It was nasty work But that was time If you bored one day bro Go check out Soulja Boy videos whooping 4X, 5X t-shirts under their jerseys. That was a drip, y'all. Yeah, for real. It was nasty work, but that was the time. If you bored one day, bro, go check out Soulja Boy videos back in the day.

I used to always watch that Soulja Boy. Yeah, go see how long your shirts was. I seen it. Yeah, that was a... That was hard. It was a nasty time. Nasty.

Very nasty time. That ain't it. Nah, facts. It'd be so funny listening to people his age talk about us they'd be so disappointed but obviously man you know so you're saying? You adjusted and went crazy. I got to ask you, your last year at Florida, how was that? Because, you know what I'm saying?

A lot going on, like, people obviously recognize how talented you were and how good you were. And a lot of people, like you said, slept on you. And then as the season progresses and now it's time, season's ending, draft wars is coming, and now your name is, like, shooting to the top. Where you're like, I should have already been there, but, like, everybody's waking up to you how was that feeling to start like i'm saying get some of the recognition from the fruits of your labor at the same time still kind of slighting you

man i ain't like my whole career at florida was a little different uh my first year of course i got red shirt i only played four games uh my first career pass was the interception. One of my first career runs was a fumble. So it was a little rocky already. But last game of the season, they threw me out there. We was getting whooped by Oklahoma, losing by 30. Threw my first touchdown. I'm like, I'm cheesing. Yeah, I'm down like 30.

Everybody like, are you good? I'm like, yeah, I just threw a touchdown. So that kind of set it up for me. And I was like, okay, this next year i got a chance to be a starting quarterback and my dog e you know uh he was a year dog too so you know me and him competing every every day and he won the job they're like all right cool you're gonna you're gonna get in y'all gonna split time a little bit so i'm like cool and i started pulling my hammies never pulled my hammies before i'm like bro what's going on so played a few games that year they messed around and threw me out there to start against georgia and one defense in the country like statistically everywhere

it's like man first game left that game early with a concussion so i'm like bro something ain't something ain't right and i messed my knee up i had to have surgery at the end of the season so my third year had a new coaching staff i told him i say man i'm gonna see how this spring go but if it ain't it i'm out of here you know so yeah they was Damn. They was like, all right, we understand. Because I was going to have to learn a new offense and stuff. And I was like, man, I don't know. And I'm coming off a knee surgery. I might not be able to run the same. But, you know, I stuck with it.

You know what I'm saying? My family was there to support me. I had the guys with me all the time. They would support me. They would turn to me at the games. But finally, like, that end of that year, I already knew I wasn't going to be at Florida again. You know, whether I did declare or not,

I wasn't going to be there again. Because I just felt like I just needed a change, something for me. But I declared because I was hearing I can get drafted first round, second round. I'm like, who don't want to get drafted first or second round? Fucking right. You know what I'm saying?

I just better myself with my name out there. And I already knew I was going to do me. Everybody was going to finally start waking up and seeing who I was. So everything just fall in line. No shout out to God. For sure. And that was the fire part, like you said, dealing with the adversity that you dealt with. But your skill and ability was always there no matter what happened. It just needed to be recognized at the right time and that's what the fire part

about it was like you had people who were skeptical about it it's like we didn't see enough we didn't see enough but then we used they saw you actually work they saw you do your she's like it's undeniable yeah so that was like dope to see and then obviously we're gonna go too far but like you come in here bro mean so much i know you probably hear that a lot but for this city and the people that look like us and the representation that happens, we don't get that to happen a lot here. So for that to happen, for you to come here, it's crazy. But definitely got to talk about that process, man. Did you even know that you was going to be in Indianapolis?

Obviously, maybe not. But did you have a thought about that? Man, you know, it's crazy. So before I even declared, everybody was like, oh, bro, you might end up in Indy. You might end up in Indy. And I'm like, mm. I'm like, okay, cool. I'm hearing they need a quarterback.

But it was like five other teams that needed QBs, too. So I'm like, all right, bet. We'll see. Training keep going. I just keep hearing more and more. I'm like, all right, this might actually happen. Then I started hearing more about other teams. So I'm like, all right, this might actually happen. Then I started hearing more about other teams. So I'm like, all right.

So I see how this is going to go. I just don't know where I'm going to end up. And I thought I was going number one. I swear I did. My agent told me he was like, you know what I'm saying, they're moving around. They're doing certain stuff. So, you know what I'm saying, they might get you.

So I'm like, all right, cool. You know what I'm saying, First round, number one pick. That's crazy. Like, why not? Boy. But, man, we got closer to the draft. And we at the draft like two or three days before the draft. And I'm like, bro, I didn't hear no call from Carolina yet.

So I'm like, I'm not going number one. You know what I'm saying? I'm like, bro, I'm not going number one. It's like, you don't know, you don't know. Just chill. I'm like, i'm not going number one it's like you don't know you don't know just just chill i'm like all right bro so the day of the job they had a little hat set up or whatever and then one of the running backs had them like messed up uh one of the hats it was b john messed up one of the hats it was an indie hat my mom went over there to take pictures with the other qb moms

and she fixed the hat i'm sitting there watching her and she's fixing the hat. So I'm like, I'm like, man, something ain't right. And she was the only person that seen the hat that was messed up. And she the one, when I fixed it,

I'm like, all right, I might mess around. I do end up in Indy for real. That's crazy. That fourth pick came. Well, even before the fourth pick,

the third pick, that's what we was really worried about though. Cause we kept hearing people was going to trade up and try to grab came. Well, even before the fourth pick, the third pick, that's what we was really worried about, though, because we kept hearing people was going to trade up and try to grab me. Then Houston got that pick. I looked at my phone. I said, we going to Indy. That was that. Happy to have you, dog.

That's fire, bro. That's fire. That's crazy. Without a ball, it's just a court. Without your spirit, it's only a game. So together with the fans, we bring our best.

What Vets Grab, you know, brought you in and showed you the ropes a little bit and invested, hollered at you as soon as you walked in the building?

Man, man. EJ Speed is out here. Shout out to my dogs. And my guy Shaq, man. First day I got there, they was like, you know, we rocking with you. We believe in you. Don't do too much. You know what I'm saying?

Just come here and be you. I was like, you know what I'm saying? Say less. All I got to do is come here and be me. Not do too much. They just been showing love every single day. That's family, bro. We fuck with the trenches.

That's the dogs. What's that like leading men, though? I've kind of been in a similar situation to you. Not as important because basketball is a little different. I mean, quarterback, you know how it is. Yeah. Everybody, not everybody can play point guard, but we get a share of duties. I mean, PT pretty much QB as well.

Yeah, but you get shared duties. Like, you can have a two guard bring the rock up. But as a quarterback, you the focal point. You make shit happen on offense. What's that like leading men as a young rookie? Vets looking to you? It was a little different at first. When I first got here, I was only 20 years old.

So it was like, dang, you got people here, four kids. I feel kids, wife that have been in the league for 11 years. Responsibilities. I'm supposed to tell this grown man what to do if he ain't doing it the right way. You know what I'm saying? So I just sat back. Of course, I'm the QB, so they're going to listen if I say something a little bit. But now that I've been here for a year, you a year i'm saying they they respect me a lot more but when i first came in it wasn't necessarily me trying to like boss people around like i know my position i know everybody gonna have eyes on me

and they want to listen to me but i said i was a rookie i'm young i was 20 years old so it's like you got to sit back and learn sometimes so that's what i was really doing just sitting back you know what i'm talking to z talking to speed talking about you know what i'm saying talking to the vet guys i don't been here done it already i said just get some advice and i said they just let me know i ain't got to do too much and the fire part about that is you know what i'm saying obviously the respect is reciprocated you look at people like you you look at people like anthony edwards like for him to be that age in that locker room and they listen to him for you to be your age in that locker room and they respect what you do because they know you put the work in. It's dope as fuck to see.

I got to ask, how was it that first game? You know what I'm saying? You build up to this moment, want to make it to the league. Now you got your first game. How was that feeling? First game was lit. I ain't gonna lie. Running out of the tunnel.

I swear I never felt anything like that before. Like damn. It felt like a real movie scene. Like I'm just jumping around looking in the stands. I'm like damn I'm really here. Hell yeah. So it was lit but I had a little bit of nerves. I ain't gonna lie because it's like NFL, first game, young quarterback. It's like everybody trying to see what I'm going to do. So the old me, I used to always try to be Superman on the field. I'm trying to make every play. Every play I make got to be a big play.

So as a quarterback, you just got to learn how to manage the game. And that was really what I was trying to do. You know what I'm saying? Just do my job and not do too much. So it was cool. Once I got that first one in, I was like, all right, I can do this. For sure. How was that adjustment?

Like, obviously, you know what I'm saying? You played a big time league in college and then coming to the pros, you're just like, all right, everybody ain't as good as me, but they damn sure close. How was that adjustment? Even with like training camp and stuff like that, like dealing with your skill set against a new set of type of players? See, playing in the NFL, I feel like it's easier than college. For real, for real. Because in college, you got players that's,

they good. They know they good, but they're not as confident. They got to rely on other players to do this for them to do that. But in the league, everybody trying to work to stay in the league. Trying to keep their job. Everybody trying to do that. But in the league, everybody trying to work, just stay in the league, you know what I'm saying,

trying to keep their job. Everybody trying to ball out. For sure. So that just let me know, hey, you got to do too much. You got to do my job. Hell yeah. And he going to do his job. It's going to work.

But the adjustment, man, my first practice with the Vets was rough. I threw like three interceptions. I'm just like man these dudes fast that speed boy so I had to I had to get my mind right

but it wasn't it didn't take too long to adjust for sure that's funny because you talk about that with Kyle Shugie

which is like like the NBA was like the spacing and stuff the difference in the game was kind of easy to adjust that way and to hear that in football

is very interesting because like you said everybody in the game, it was kind of easy to adjust that way. And to hear that in football is very interesting because, like you said, everybody in the league code. Everybody code, but the challenge is that everybody's code at their position. They fast. Everybody's great. But they, like you said, everybody on your team is great too, and they working. So it makes

your job a little easier, but it definitely a little different in college, though. I remember that. Because sometimes in college, you got a couple guys that's there just for school. Like, I'm playing this sport to get my degree. I'm going to be an accountant. So they don't put the same amount of effort in as a dude that's in the NFL. So I understand.

But my question was, I like to have fun. I play mad. You play mad? Nah, bro. Bro, what? I used to. I used to a lot but

you ain't play with your paws you ain't you ain't soup yourself up bro I wanna why you start doing emotions

though bro just talk I'm saying bro you ain't you ain't pick your throat bro you out of

pocket I have voice but I better even be in the game I feel you y'all got way more film session than I do.

I mean, I got time to play the game, but when I be having free time, I be trying to rest, boy, because I be tired. I feel you. You heard my boy say DoorDash, look, it works so hard. DoorDash is essential to his lifestyle. Anthony Richard loves DoorDash. Every day.

That's the kid right there telling me that. Every single day, I DoorDash. I told you not. Tap cat right there telling me that's every single day I DoorDash. I told you not. Tap in. I need to tap in. Screenshot that balance, Nasty. So show them. DoorDash every day.

Me and him, hey, listen, we can do a commercial together. DoorDash, we did one before. We can do two. Spend a block. Spend a block.

I wanted to ask you though, when you start rapping, bro? 2022. A couple of my homies, they rap. so they've been doing it way before i was doing it and once one day i just went into the studio session with them and i'm like man y'all didn't let me get on the song but i was just playing yeah that was like all right beth so said i did it i'm like all right yeah this this feels kind of good you know what i said i to, because I don't really be talking that much. I really just chill mode.

But music just let me express how I feel. I ain't got to talk to nobody to do it. I just go rapping. Yeah, you're touching up. This dog, when I saw you and I saw the music videos, I was like, oh, this about to be the quarterback in that? It's fucking up. No, we had Phillip Rivers. He quarterback in that. It's fucking up.

No, we had Phillip Rivers. He had 85 kids. We got somebody on YouTube getting a crack at it. I was all in. We needed for the city. Who you listen to for the game? Him? Yeah.

He just started, though. No, no, last year. Last year. I would. Listen to yourself right before you play. It's crazy. That ain't crazy.

I was doing that in college. So you was rapping before then, though. Oh, yeah. Yeah, that's what I meant. Yeah, because we thought you being like 2022 is when you first. I'm talking when you first hit the studio. Oh, yeah. 2022.

Oh, okay. Well, just rapping. Just messing around. Oh, before. Okay. Cool. But yeah, it really depends on how i'm feeling though before the game i'm trying to turn out there you know what i'm saying i i gotta find somebody to turn up to but i really just be trying to chill most of the time you're right i listen to myself

you know what i'm saying because i listen to my music motivate me more because i would be talking about my life you know what i've been through and stuff listen to my music, it motivates me more. Because I would be talking about my life, you know, what I've been through and stuff. So it's like, all right, this is why I hit balling. So just keep it going. You got a tape dropper? Soon, probably not. But give me like, give me a few more, so I got you. Respect, bro.

Because I've been meaning to, you know what I'm saying, get back in the studio, but I've been so tired. I feel you, man. You're locked in, for sure. We had a guest say he listened to Usher before the game. He out of pocket. I know he's a goddamn wilder. Where he at?

Usher? Yeah, Ray John Rondo. Said he listened to Usher. That's why I asked you what you, even before growing up, what was your go-to? Your headphones. Oh, man. You're a Florida boy

I didn't know if anybody down there called that of course you gotta listen to Yak all the time yeah wow

I was a big Uzi fan for a while okay then I low key transitioned to no cap and then of course I listened to Gunna all the time

so they always be in rotation no cap code yeah for sure new Gunna tape I ate too I ain't you know it is no it's like, they always be a real taste. No cap code. Yeah, for sure. The new gunner tape I ate, too. It is. No, it's fire. It's fire, though.

And then he's here. Nah, because I rock with Jeffery. You know what I mean? Jeffery, my dog. Nah, he's not Jeffery. Jeff, that's my guy. So, it's slime. Nah.

He's trying to get me indicted. Look what he own, bro. He's trying to get you. That's the Johnson Puerto Rico. Nah, I'm just playing. Free, John. Free. He's trying to get me with the Rico Charger.

You out of pocket. All right, man. So I got to ask, how was your first time touching down the nap, man? First day was after the draft. Got here, it was raining. Seen them cornfields. Yeah. I'm like, they ain't wear everything. first day was after the draft got here it was raining seen them cornfields yeah

I'm like dang where everything at I'm like where everything at like what's up with this place but you know what I'm saying

I traveled around a little bit I'm like okay it's a chill place you know what I'm saying it ain't one of those places where you gotta be come here and be all flashy

and stuff you just be yourself with this vibe. So yeah, I love this place. Real good place to get your money and stay out the way. And the crazy thing about the city is that like it's good. I mean, no matter what the Pacers do, the way that the Colts season goes affects so much in the city and it'd be crazy because they don't even got to be a good season. If everybody feel happy or positive about the shit the city is different for like six or

seven months man when we was going through it here it was real sad it was real sad it was real sad dog but even last year man you know i'm saying obviously you coming in unfortunately with the injury still getting the rest to get ready for next year the promise like the team you brought was so happy for the city like especially with you i'm saying like kaylin and leah boston and like tyree's like the city got new people to like really push and be happy about like your talent so yeah that's fire but i gotta ask you know i'm saying after playing a little bit last year you know i'm saying then watching what i saw how do you feel so far about like coming into the next season like being able to say all right i had a small simple size but i know what i'm capable of or i saw what they was that's crazy

the real journalism so all right come on my boy look at my co-workers man hey man i'm geeked for next season man i ain't even a colts fan but all my friends and family are colts fans i listen i'm from the city born and raised you know i'm saying i when the colts win it makes me happy my friends is happy in the group chat they want to barbecue it's a good time saying mad as happy in the group chat. They want to barbecue. It's a good time. Same. Mad as hell in the group chat on Monday. But I've been a Cowboys fan since I was six. So, unfortunately. He's been disappointed for so long.

I've been living with heartbreak a long time. Have some sympathy for me, bro. I can't jump games, though. It is what it is, unfortunately. But I support y'all. You know what I'm saying? I got my support and respect. You know, I'm locked in.

I got the Colts. I'm off. I'm far from getting that name. Yeah, I got. No, no, no. Wait, wait, wait. Tell him the name. Five Colts. far from getting that name Yeah I got No no no wait wait wait Tell him the name Five Coast Warriors

Because I be saying it. It's a raggedy. That's crazy, man. That's crazy. I can name you a whole bunch of girls. I've been watching girls my whole life. What's my guy with the VCU? I always say his name.

Mo. There you go. Shout out to Mo. I seen your tape the other day. Mo can really hoop. Nah, for real. Nah, Mo is special. For real, he can hoop.

All right, so obviously, if you got to run a five at the wild with your teammates, who you pulling up with? Oh, shit. Mo. Yeah, Mo for sure. Not Speed. No Speed. See, we're not. Not Speed. I know Speed.

Hold on. See, we're not doing my guys. Have you seen Speed mixtape? No. In the shirt again? No. Nasty work. We're not doing my...

We're not doing AJ like that. Don't know who was Speed, bro. Let A-Rich pick your fire, bro. We're not doing my guys like that. Yeah, get your fire. Get my fire. All right. Fire.

One more. Let me see. Ayer, he left you off. See, he left you off. Z is a football player. For sure. He'll tell you that. For sure.

I think he'll tell you that. But speed, so where he can hoop. I'm not doing my guys like i mean yeah the fifth could be speed he claims such a hooper so why not we're gonna see you as mixed six four six four center so my nigga at center said some screens for a rich who speed play that's a hell of a pick and roll. Speed. Speed really.

Speed. Speed could hoop. My nigga, he was rusty. He got a nice form. Speed, he just rough. That motherfucker basketball looked like a Nerf ball

on my nigga. So it was a little. How he was shooting before he was shooting it so hard. But I feel like he could be a Rasheed Wallace

is out of pocket. Like a Ben Wallace. Yeah, Ben Wallace. Okay, yeah. You call him Ben Wallace instead of Rasheed? Yeah, that's a hell of a a – Rasheed Wallace is out of pocket, like a Ben Wallace. Yeah, Ben Wallace. Okay. You call him Ben Wallace instead of Rasheed? Yeah. That's a hell of a – No, Rasheed is a finesse.

My nigga's a bruiser, so he'll hold the paint down for sure. For sure. But obviously, man, you playing in the division now, AFC South, it's a lot of crazy robberies going on. I know what I'm saying. I've been seeing a lot of talk going on. Yeah, we talking about it for the city. We don't matter if we're co-spending or not.

Niggas not talking down on the city. I see CJ out there. You know what I'm saying? He had a good year last year, popping and shit. But I want people to forget. You know what I'm saying? You on the way back. And it's up this year.

Yeah. I've been seeing the talk. I know you're not going to do that, but I want to know. We got one like that here in the city, too. Let Speed do all the talking. You ain't got to say nothing. Speed on that here in the city too let's speed do all the talking you ain't gotta say nothing speed on that yeah i love it though but one thing i want to talk about is like you know i'm saying um the best part about this age of sports is like y'all having a platform to be able to speak if y'all want to and stuff like that yeah um i think that that's absolutely fire for the young quarterbacks especially like for him michael

parsons to be able to talk about the games because to hear y'all perspective from stuff is so dope. Like even with you, to hear your perspective about stuff that a lot of people wouldn't understand who actually know the game,

I think it's fire to see. Like how was it for you to be able to, you know what I'm saying, like to see that type of representation there because a lot of times it was up to the media

to say stuff and they can say a whole bunch of stupid stuff and you just be like, I just had a bad day. I just had a bad game. Nah, I like the fact that we're able to speak up. We can say how we feel and people are like, okay, cool.

I understand that now. Whereas before, you couldn't really say too much because they're like, oh, he's complaining. Oh, he's a diva. He's not focused on football. He's not focused on his job. But it's like, nah, we're able to speak up. We get to talk. We get to nah, we're able to speak up. You know what I'm saying? We get to talk.

We get to say how we feel and people respect it. Hell yeah. So it's like, I like that. Yeah. Might as well start you a podcast. I'm about to.
