That's me. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. We ain't running behind. We ain't running behind. Whose show is this? Ocho's. Okay no no no we ain't running behind we ain't running behind who show is this ours okay well we ain't running behind when we start that's when we start the people listen i it is what it is we help people if you you've been in the chat for a while since 10 o'clock we 11 minutes late we apologize i love you aunt love you shoot now we can start we can start so we're gonna get to our first segment there's a news cap I love you. I love you. Shoot. Now we can start. We can start.

So we're going to get to our first segment. It's a news cap. Cowboys EVP, the vice president, Steven Jones. We're very aware of fans frustration from this disastrous wildcard home playoff loss to Jerryerry saying we would be all in this offseason to be in the the nfl's least active team during the first few days of free

agency in the negotiating period fan cowboy fans have never been more frustrated with ownership than they are right now cowboys executive vp stephen jones says we're very, very aware. Everybody certainly has that right. I know where the frustration is. It's in fact, we haven't had success in the playoffs to their satisfaction. Then the criticism is certainly something that we're going to be aware of. We know that we're going to be there, but we're going to stick with what we believe will ultimately get us a championship here for our fans we don't define all in by spending in free agency it's keeping the core

together kind of like what i said i have a problem okay what's the key the key the key words to what he just said we're going to stick to what we believe in and going all in doesn't require spending in free agency if you're going to be that blind to continue to believe in what you've always done then you're going to always have the same results that you've had the past 20 years how many years has it been last championship within you're going to have the same results that you've had the past 29 years. The fact that they still are tone deaf, know the fans are upset, but the first thing you say is,

we're going to stick to the same thing we've been doing. So as Cowboys fans or other fans of other teams in general, you have a right to be frustrated because nothing is going to change based on what Steven Jones just said. They're not willing to change the way they do things. You have to spend in free agency. You have no choice. That's what you have to do. You have to bring in other people, other personnel, veterans that have that leadership, that have playoff experience. So when those times come in the playoffs, those players know how to rise to the occasion.

But again, we're going to stick to our guns and do things the way we feel it should be done, which will result in the same goddamn results come this season. Do what you've always done. You'll get what you've always got. But after I listened to what Jerry said the other day, you remember what I said?

Oh, Joe, I said? Oh, Joe, I said, listen to his comments. It seems to me all in mean resigning our guys. It means redoing something with that, making sure Michael's taken care of making sure CD lamb is taken care of now in fridge.

Well, you can just say that you can, you can just say that you can just say that when you, when, when someone uses the words or use the term or the analogy of being all in, that means doing everything I can to make sure we're not back in the same situation we were being bounced in the first round of the playoffs. That's what all in means.

If you're being specific on taking care of individual players, then you use that type of terminology. Come on, man. But see, I got to give you guys false hope. Because when Jerry says all in, everybody thinks Jerry's going to be a big time spender in free agency. But if you look at his history, Jerry hasn't spun in free agency in a very, very long time. He had.

And guess what they haven't done? Guess what else they haven't done in a very, very long time? He hasn't won a Super Bowl. So I get. But if you look at Kansas City, left tackle, free agency. Right tackle, free agency. Left guard, free agency.

Mark MVS, free agency. McKinnon, free agency. So yeah, but they have had success. The draft, they drafted Chris Jones. They drafted Mahomes. They drafted Kelsey. They drafted the corners. They drafted LeJarius Sneed. They drafted those safeties. They drafted Kelsey. They drafted the corners. They drafted LeJarius Sneed.

They drafted those safeties. They drafted McDuffie. Yes, Tranquil. They got him in free agency. So I think it needs to be a healthy blend. But see, when people think free agency and the Cowboys, they think big names. Prime time.

We got to go get a prime time where there are no prime times available. Ain't nothing like that. Teams are not giving those type of guys up. Those guys are not going to be on the market. So, I understand, and like I said, listen to Jared because when I just read it,

and then I listened to, then I actually saw him actually give it. I knew what he means, all in means he's going to keep his core guys. That's what he meant by that. And I think the fans need to understand that's what Jerry means. He's going to make sure Micah stays in a Cowboys uniform. He's going to make sure CeeDee Lamb stays in a Cowboys uniform.

He's going to make sure Dak stays in a Cowboys uniform by extending him and lowering that cap number. Now, Tyron Smith, that's another story. We know he's one of the better offensive tackles in all of football, but he hadn't played the full season in a very, very long time. And I know the Cowboys have gone frustrated with that. Now, the left guard, Tyler Smith, he's interchangeable. He's great.

He can play left guard. He can play left tackle. He cut his teeth at can play left guard. He can play left tackle. He cut his teeth at the left tackle spot. They bumped him down the left guard when Tyron Smith came back. So I don't think the Cowboys will have a problem kicking him back out the left tackle. They lost Tyler Biotis, the center, in free agency. So it's going to be interesting to see. Now, they can move Terrence Steele.

He played some left tackle. But I think he's kind of cemented himself and found a home on the right side alongside Zach Martin. So for me, I saw, but they did make a splash today. They signed Eric Kendrick. He had originally agreed to

a deal with the 49ers, but like, nah, he did a quick pivot and he signed with the Cowboys. So I like that. They need linebackers. You can't keep playing those small-ass guys. That nickel-and-dime defense is great as long as the team plays into your hands, Ocho,

by throwing the football. But what happens when a team lines up like Green Bay did in the playoffs? What happens when the 49ers do what they did? What happens when the Cardinals do what they did? Or the Eagles? Now you're in a heap of trouble because you got safeties wearing 215 trying to

hold up against a guard, trying to hold up against a tackle or a fullback or a tight end. It ain't gonna work. Nah, definitely ain't going to work. Nah. Definitely ain't. And you know, speaking of, since we talk about the Eagles and you just brought them up, you know what owner is showing you the definition

of all-in? That goddamn Harry Roseman. So you're Jeffrey Lurie's owner. Harry Roseman is the GM. I mean, Jeffrey, I'm sorry. Jeffrey Lurie. I mean, that's what you call all-in. That's what you call making sure what happened last year doesn't happen. And we can tend for a title. That's what all in entails.

Not saying it, not in front of the cameras, not in front of the media, doing it through action in that goddamn checkbook. We're going to make sure we have a chance at that goddamn Lombardi come this year. Because what, you know, it's kind of when you get so close.

I mean, you're so close, Ocho. They played so well the first half, kind of had the game in control. And the problem that I have is that when they had momentum in the game, they didn't get separation. Because if you look at this, you guys have watched the Super Bowl. You see a team get that momentum,

but they don't put enough separation between the two. We watched the Eagles do it with the Chiefs. We watched the 49ers do it with the Super Bowl. You see a team get that momentum, but they don't put enough separation between the two. We watched the Eagles do it with the Chiefs. We watched the 49ers do it with the Chiefs. When you get that momentum, you need to put 17, 20, 24 points between you guys. You leave a team running like, hold on. As bad as we played, we're only three points down. Now, what happens when we get the momentum?

And you saw what happened so Eric Kendrick is on the way he's a good linebacker the Wolf Hunter he probably probably gonna step aside he's having those reoccurring neck injuries and anything that has to do with that neck and the backer

you don't want to play that let it go Vanderish Kyle backer you don't want to play you let it go let it go uh vander ish yeah it's uh kyle yeah he played well and i i like i like this signing by the cowboys but jerry's right oh show we go on free agency and because how's that gonna look let's just say for the sake of argument mike brown says oh bingo fans we going all in. And you on the roster. You making $10 million, but they coming to sign a receiver for $19 million. Ochoa going to feel some type of way.

Well, obviously, if I was on the roster, there would be no receiver you could sign that is worth making more than I am anyway. We get T.O. in his prime. We get Randy Moss. Yeah, there was. Absolutely. Randy Moss. Did you forget about Randy? You was in the league when Randy was in the league. was. Absolutely. Randy Moss. Did you forget about Randy? Randy, you was in the league when Randy was in the league.

That's impossible. That's impossible. To have both of us on the same team. That's like saying Jamar Chase. Wait a minute, stop. Come on, that's a hypothetical.

That's like saying Jamar Chase and Justin Jefferson can be all in and play for the Bengals right now. I see a lot of people talk about that rumor. It's impossible.

There ain't enough money to go around. All I'm saying is, see, when you talk about there's not another receiver, but I'm saying we've seen teams bring guys in, pay them a higher dollar amount than somebody already on that team. Have you not seen that?

No, I've never seen a number one. I've never seen a number one that was- I'm just saying a player in general. A defensive tackle. Okay, okay, okay. Or a defensive tackle on your team. They sign a defensive tackle in free agency and pay him more than a guy that's already been there or a cornerback or safety i i'm sorry i meant a bit i

was specific but i'm just saying so in all your years you've never seen somebody on your team they bring another player in and pay him more than somebody's already been there and most of the time if they pay him more that means the person coming in is better than the person that's already there that's that's that's what that's that is that is what has happened in those cases yes i've seen that before that doesn't necessarily mean that because that means a lot of times when i look at it it's like okay in free agency we had to spend more but if in order to get said individual yes sir you got to overpay yes so if i don't get a defensive player and i got to pay him so let's just say i get a defensive player and i pay him 22 million 23 million and you ain't

signed michael and michael sitting right there making four million how you think michael gonna feel or you bring him let's just say you bring a receiver in and let's say he's not the caliber of a cd but you pay him 12 million and there's cd making five how you think cd's gonna feel forget paying him top 30 million 25 28 30 million dollars if just the mere fact that you brought a receiver in and you're paying him actually more than what cd is currently making cd is gonna feel some type of way feels right you know it's funny now that you mentioned it in these scenarios that you're given and these somewhat hypotheticals, has this ever happened? Because I can't recall it ever happened before.

Yes. You remember they signed, before they signed Bosa, they signed Hargrove. They gave him $24 million and Nick Bosa wasn't making that. Yes, it happens all the time. It happens every year. Damn, man. Yeah. Happens all the time. I never thought about that. Yeah, it happens all the time. It happens every year. Damn, man. Yeah, happens all the time. I never thought about that. Yeah, okay. Okay, I like

that. I like that. I like that. But what happened? They got both of them together, huh? He was coming in. He's like, hold on. Look at Armstead. They signed Hargrave. Now they got to release Armstead because they can't pay everybody.

49 seemingly go in all year. They're trying to win it every year. You see what they did with Boca. You see what they did with Hargrave. They're paying Warner. They're paying Debo. They're paying Christian McCaffrey. They gave Hargrave the money.

They award. They paid him. They're like, hey, we, they paid him. Yeah. Hey, we going for it. Yeah. Yeah. That's, that's the definition of all in. Now, I'm not sure what the Cowboys are doing, but there's a way to spread. You gotta, you gotta, you gotta spread that money. Listen, you gotta have your identity somewhere. Either you're gonna

have your identity on offense, or you're gonna have your identity on defense. It got, it got to come from somewhere. So if you're going to use the words all in, you need to do just that. Not stick to your guns and do what you've been doing in the past

because if you do what you're doing in the past, then basically all you're telling us is you're settling for mediocrity in the postseason. Tennessee, they just signed Calvin Ridley.

Now, I got a problem with Tennessee because when A.J. Brown asked you for four years, $100 million, you laughed at it. Now you signed a asked you for four years, $100 million, you laughed at it. Now you signed a guy that's four years, five years older than A.J. Brown when he asked you for the money, and you gave him four years, $92 million.

Now, how do you think DeHart feels? They just broke Calvin Ridley in the game four. What did they give DeHart? That's a good question. You know, I don't know the numbers. I don't know. What were the numbers? You remember?

It ain't four years for 92 with 50 fully guaranteed. I know it ain't that. I don't know what the numbers are in Tennessee for DeHop, but I know they ain't that. Yeah. How old is DeHop right now, you think? 32? 33?

Oh. Okay. Calvary Ridley, 30? Yeah. DeHop, 31? 29. DeHop, 31. How old is Calvary Ridley?

29. 29. Hey. Yeah. Now that I think about it, well, Will Evans, they got something nice over there. Now the receiving core. That's nice. Goddamn Calvin really in hot.

Boy, that's a nice little combo. That's the best 8-9 team I've seen in a long time. Hey, listen. So who's going to run the ball? Who are you going to run the ball with? It's a passing league, man. It's a passing league.

This is a passing league. Now, you could run the ball for goddamn decoration like having a cupcake and throwing sprinkles on that motherfucker. Throwing the sprinkles is a running game. But you mean your meat and potatoes is the passing game. Now, you got goddamn D-Hop and you got that. Who you got passing it? Will Levis, boy, you know he got an arm, man. You might not be too fond of him.

I got two of them, as a matter of fact. You might not be too fond of him. I got two of them, as a matter of fact. You might not be too fond of him, but he nice, now. He can sling that rock.

Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. It just happened, man. Yeah, the Chargers are trading Keenan Allen to the Bears for a fourth-round pick. They cut Mike Williams, and they restructured the contract of Joey Bosa and Khalil Mack. Last season, Allen had 108 catches,

1,243 yards. He was 16 catches, 11th in yards, tied for 18th in touchdowns. But he's not, he was 136 in average, but that's what he is. He's an intermediate guy. He's a move-the-train guy. He's going to catch a bunch of passes. Not going to be for

a big average. He's not going to average 14, 17 yards a catch. That's not what he is. He does a lot of the dirty work. Works in the slot. Got tremendous move. Great transition in and out of breaks. Shifty.

Yeah. Sneaky. Can get behind you. Yeah, he's a Kenan Allen is one of those when I talk about route runners in NFL. One of those that doesn't need the offensive coordinators to help to scheme him open. He's one of those one of those few. Now, it's only a handful of them. It's only a handful of them. I'm a line up out here like I used to do. Marvin Harrison on the right side, line up on one side of the field.

We're going to leave you there all goddamn day. I need you to when we call your number, we need you to to get open. They don't do no motion either. I need you to get open for me. And you know the X-Coast ain't do no motion either. Oh no. Oh no. And he getting open. Keenan Allen is one of those. Off the ball.

Oh, he nasty with it. You play man, he finna sauce you up. You play off, he finna sauce you up. His understanding of coverage, zone, man, knowing when to sit,

knowing when to keep going. Man, he's brilliant. He's brilliant. So for the Bears, that's a good thing. Now, the Bears have all these acquisitions. I just want to know, what are we going to do with the quarterback position? Well, you already know what they're going to do with the quarterback position. They're going to take Caleb Williams.

I don't know, man. I don't know. I have a question. You would know better than me. What do you think about them keeping Justin Fields and still drafting? Just I mean, still drafting Caleb Williams and let him sit for a little bit. It's the same situation. People thought they should do that with Peyton Manning and Andrew Luck. Ain't no way it's happening. Right. It ain't happening.

OK, now we broke we broke down the teams that are available we broke down the teams together teams that are available and I honestly thought it would be the Falcons obviously now Kirk Cousins is going there and what do we narrow it down to we had three teams and we said Giants

didn't we say Giants yeah okay oh man oh that's crazy this time of year is kind of exciting it's kind of exciting man to see where

everybody's going so no man that's three quarterbacks in a row each year it is what it is I keep doing it

until I find one damn hey you keep marrying until you keep dating until you get it right. That's a good one. That's if you didn't marry. Hey,

sometimes, oh, Joe, all you don't say, you don't women talk about, you got to kiss a lot of frogs to find a prince. Sometimes you got to slay a lot of dragons to get you a queen. You don't understand.

They, they, yeah, I like it. I like it. But you got to get through the, you remember Shrek? What they had to do? They had to get past a queen. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, I like it. You remember Shrek? What they had to do? They had to get past the dragon, right? Sometimes you got to sway a lot of dragons to get you a queen.

Dragons, yeah. Okay. Listen, when you say it like that... Well, Ocho ain't going to beat us up. You heard Shadow Sharp and Ocho talk about're going to beat us up. Well, Shadow Shop, you heard Shadow Shop and Ocho talk about Colt referring to women as dragons.

Ocho, you know it's coming. You know what? You're right. You're right. Okay. Okay. See, now, we got to be careful. You got to be careful about what you say, but they understand it's merely an analogy. If the shoe don't fit, it shouldn't bother you.

If the shoe don't fit, if you're the shoe don't fit if you're not a dragon we know you're not a dragon it's cool listen everybody has the ability in today's era in society to identify with whatever they want to whatever you want to so if you're not a dragon that's fine

damn that's a good I like the way you put that you gotta say a lot here's the thing now you got now you got my train of thought going back down memory lane and what it took to get to this point man oh man i don't know what it would be ocho that'd be killing because everything i say you heard what he said yeah yeah he said this right this is my bag and he said this about this one about jess and he said oh my Jess and he said, oh my God. This is what I don't understand, Ocho.

It's no ill intent, Ocho. But here's the thing I don't understand. When it comes to me, Shannon, take a joke. When they question your sexuality, when they do this, Shannon, it's just a joke. But hey, but when Shannon Sharpe said something, oh, he mean it.

Let's set it in stone. Do you notice the difference, Ocho? Yeah, yeah, yeah. It moved. You know, the goalposts moved. It all depends on who it is. Now, the goalposts move depending on who the individual is, you know? Some people it's okay.

Some people it's not. See, they're not used to seeing you in this space. That's the thing. They're not used to seeing you in this space. You normally suit, tie, you know, studious. So they haven't seen an open and authentic, organic

Shannon Sharp. So it's shocking to a lot of people now that they get to see you in this space. This is locker room, Shannon. This is on the bus, Shannon. This is going to this airplane, Shannon. Yeah, and that is what makes this so great, because it allows the people to see another side of you,

the true side of you, when you don't have to be, I don't want to say someone you're not when you're on TV, but you do have to put on a different face, if that makes sense. Yeah, yeah, of course. I'm on television. I'm with the Disney. I work for the company that got the ears. The ears, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, this right here, O'Shea Shay, I work for the company that got the ears. The ears, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Oh, this right here, O'Shea, I work for the company that got the horns. You know what I'm saying? That's all. It's a little different, so I just have to add the corn to the situation that I'm in. But I like the move. You look at what the Bears have done. Keenan Allen, DeAndre Swill, Gerald Everett, Kevin Byard,

Coleman Shelton, Jonathan Owens, Mr. Simone Biles. Yeah. They also own the first overall pick and the ninth overall pick. So they got the number one from Carolina, and they have their own pick, which is number nine.

Right. Well, I'm wondering, think about where they would go. Do you go defense? Do you go offense? For me, if there's an offensive lineman rated high, I'm going to go get him. Because I got to protect my quarterback. And don't do me... We saw Bryce Young. The difference is Bryce Young in Alabama

had protection. Bryce Young in Carolina got his ass kicked. So, you got to protect him. I don't care who you got at receiver. You could have DeHop. You could have Keenan Allen. You could have Gerald Everett. You could have everybody you want. But if you don't care who you got at receiver. You could have DeHoff. You could have Keenan Allen. You could have Gerald Everett.

You could have everybody you want. But if you don't protect that. But you can't. If you can't. And you can't get him to ball. It don't make. It don't make no sense. It don't make a difference.

At all. So. Derek Henry said on Mad Dog Radio. That the Cowboys never reached out to him in free agency. The Cowboys never called at all. That's why I stay in the offseason. I'm kind of. I'm kind of on the back end of my career,

and that's a great organization. It would have been a great opportunity, but I'm thankful that I ended up here in Baltimore. I didn't know that he lived in Dallas in the offseason. He's from Florida, a small town right outside of Jacksonville, if I'm not mistaken. Uli. Right. And Tennessee, you know, obviously played with the Titans, so

he probably lived in Nashville a little bit outskirts and so uh I get it nice way to train I mean that's one thing he gets his time in the locker room I mean excuse me in the training room and equipment you know work it out um I thought it would have been a great fit but I thought Baltimore was always a better fit yeah yeah yeah most definitely Baltimore is most definitely a better fit than the Cowboys are because of the play style the offensive style of the Ravens the Ravens gonna run that ball the Ravens are one of the few teams in the NFL I might add the Cleveland Browns in that that run the ball like they got goddamn Jamal Lewis like they got Jamal Lewis back there in the back in

the backfield and obviously Derrick Henry fits that mold and what the Ravens used to be and pairing him with Lamar Jackson and the receiving core is a flowers. And I think Nelson Aguilar Aguilar is still there. I think they're going to be fine. They're going to have to make a splash somewhere else as well as far as far as offense is concerned and bringing in another dynamic receiver to go along the pair with Zay Flowers. They got to do that. I forgot about Rashad. Andrew should come back healthy. I don't know if they signed a two-year deal with Aguilar.

Is it a one-year deal? They still have Duvernay. I think they brought Gus Edwards back. Keon Mitchell. Keaton Mitchell. Yeah. Oh, he's back. Keaton.

Fasten him up. It's Keaton Mitchell. Keaton Mitchell. I played with him. I played with his dad. His dad played with me in Cincinnati. So, yeah, because as a matter of fact, he was on the team with Marvin. Yeah, he was a rookie. In 2000, yeah, we won the championship of fact, he was on the team with Marvin. Yeah, he was a rookie.

In 2000, yeah, we won the championship. He was a rookie with us. Yeah, him and AD. Adelius Thomas. Oh, AD. Yeah, fans was AD. That's my guy. So, I like the fit.

Because let me tell you why I like the fit in Baltimore. Because they're one of the teams that still have a fullback. Ricard. Right. Goes to the Pro Bowl every year. Basically, he's an offensive lineman. He's a 300-pound guy that can catch. So they, but you know, they give him a ball occasionally on short yardage,

but he's a lineman. That's what he is. And they throw him a few balls. He probably catch 20 passes, maybe 20 passes a year. But Big Henry is well the Ravens did they traded Moses Moody to the Jet

huh? Gus Edwards is gone okay Gus is gone are you into the Chargers? so where did Eckler go? Chief did the Chief just signed Hollywood Brown okay from Arizona okay that's going to be a good one go. Chief D? The Chief just signed Hollywood Brown. Okay, from Arizona.

Okay, that's going to be a good one. That's a lot of speed too, that boy. That's a lot of speed. Yep. That's good luck. If Mike Williams is not too expensive, I like Mike Williams. A big body guy that can make contestants. Matter of fact, hold on. Man, I saw the release of Mike Williams, right? Man, that boy nice, man. I saw the release of Mike Williams, right?

Man, that boy. Nice, man. I know. I know. But listen, I'm sitting there arguing with the people on Twitter. They talk about, oh, he had number two. He had number three. He had number two.

And I'm like, man, listen, a healthy Mike Williams, a healthy Mike. If we can keep him on the field, if you got, if you got eyes, if you got two eyes, even if you got one eye, you can see he's a, she's a true number one when he's on point, when he's on the field, he is that boy. The fact that he can't stay, he can't stay on the field is the only problem. And I, Mike, I know you're going to see this, Mike. I know you're going to see this baby. Come on, let your boy, let's work on your nutrition. I want to keep you on the field. Let's look, I can straighten your core on the field let's I can straighten your core the insides I can help you build a callus so you can stay on the field

full time man boy you the real deal boy I love you I respect your game just holla at you boy but yeah man Uncle Ake man we were going crazy

you see it seems to me that the Chiefs are gearing up to try to get that deep threat again like they had with Tyreek a guy that can stretch the field and you let him. Yeah, he can stretch it. He can stretch it too now.

You let Rice work underneath him and Kelsey. But like I said, I really like if he's not too expensive, I definitely put a call into Mike Weed because they haven't had a big body guy like that since Sammy Watkins. Remember Sammy Watkins was there with him. Sammy, yeah. He's a big body. I don't know if he has the speed,

but he can run. Mike Williams faster than you think for a guy his size. Hey, listen. You know what's funny? Mike Williams and Mike Evans have what I like to call deceptive speed. Because of their size, you think they can't run, but before you know it, they're up on your toes before you even goddamn know it.

Deceptive speed. So I, I like the move. I like the move that the chiefs may, they're definitely, they definitely are going all in, going all in to try to get that three P Tyreek Hill wants to dolphin the sound.

Mike Thomas, uh, just throwing this out there. Mike, Michael Thomas. Hmm. I don't know if that's how you spell it, but anyway,

uh, that would be in Miami would be nice. Could you see Michael Thomas? Would you like to see Michael Thomas in? Yeah. Listen, listen,

another one. Again, I like what you just said. He can't stay healthy. The same with Mike Williams. I'm gonna say the same thing with Michael Thomas. If we get the injury fix,

if we do whatever we need to do in the offseason to make sure he can stay on the field, do you understand the damage that Mike Williams could do on short routes, intermediate routes, and sometimes he could fool you and go deep. He's someone that can run every route on the route tree.

Every route on the route tree and he cannot be covered. Hey, you got, you got Twitter, right? What is my, you know, Mike, Mike, Michael, Michael Thomas, Twitter handle is can't guard. Mike can't guard Mike. And he lives just by that when he's on the field. Now, if we can get him to stay healthy on the field again, Mike, I know you're going to see this baby. I'll let you boy.

I'll let you boy. 13 years, no baby. Holla at your boy. Holla at your boy. 13 years, no injuries. I can get you right. And I would love to have you down in Miami. Mike, think about this. Come to Miami. Call the Dolphins. Call Mike McDaniels. I'm taking the tussies. I'm going to tell you where to go. I'm going to take you to tussies. I'm going to take you where to get your car

washed. We go to the hard rock. We can play a little blackjack in the hard rock. He hasn't been the same since he had that historic season. He was offensive player of the year. Broke the record. I think he had 149 catches. 1,700 yards. He had that ankle injury the following year. That kind of been nagging.

Has anybody signed Mike Williams yet? You know what? This was probably before your time. You remember Dwayne Bo for Kansas City? I'm not going to remember Money Bo. How you going to ask me do I remember Dwayne Bo? What? I remember Money Bo?

Man, Bo was cutting up when he was with Kansas City. Yeah. Come on now. Man, Bo out here. Bo out here in Miami. Yeah, I know Money Bo. Man, Money Bo, that's the real death of a dog. Kyle Pierce asked Kirk Cousins one thing

and it changed for the jersey number eight. Money? Like we all do? Check this out. This is what Kirk said about it. We're going to play the sound, though, Joe. Okay. He was funny about it. I said, I'll write a check whatever you know foundation

what i'm not gonna let you just give me the number i want to make it worth your while you know make a donation whatever it needs to be and he said i just want you know targets every game you know he said i he was joking you know he kind of winked so um i i joke with him i said good answer good answer yeah that's cute that's that's cute and fine and dandy. You're going to get the targets anyway, because that's why you brought your ass there. Listen, based on the history of the quarterback that's coming, one thing you're going to do is you're going to get everybody that's a part of that receiving core targets. Man, get your money, man. Get your money.

Because you never give up your jersey number. You never give up your jersey number without giving something for. Oh, yeah, for compensation. Oh, always. Always. And I'm sure he's going to give him something for that number eight. And matter of fact, quick little story. Guess who had number 85 when I got to New England that year?

Who? Aaron Hernandez. Oh, that's right. He went to 81. Yeah, Aaron. He went to 81 after that. Yeah, he went to 81 after that So when I got there

With all due respect Man, he like I said, what you need What you need for that 85, boy? You know, we talk numbers We talk numbers a little bit You know, and he ain't try to hit me Across the head

He ain't try to hit me across the head He say out of respect And based on who you are And what you've done in the league Man, I'm going to throw it to you For a little something But I ain't had to give me across the head. He say out of respect and based on who you are and what you've done in the league, man, it's I'm a thought to you for a little something. But I ain't had to give him number 20,000. That's it.

20,000. He show love. Cause you know, when it comes to the numbers, when it comes to a, you, you got to pay a pretty penny for them. Especially the guy done got attached to it. He had, I don't know what he, what number he wore in college. But I wanted 84 because my brother had it. I started out as 81.

Right. So I had 81 for the first two years. Ricky and Natal had 84. So once he left via free agency, I asked Dan, could I switch numbers? Back then, it wasn't, you know, you switch numbers whenever. And now. You ain't had to pay none. You ain't had to pay none.

And so I got 84. But when I went to Baltimore, Jermaine Lewis had 84. He want to give it up. That's the big man. That's the big man. He did what he did. He didn't he didn't want to give it up. He said, you know, I don't made a name.

And he's from Maryland. I get it. And, you know, because I offered him my wife. He isn't her Rolex. And he said, no, I'm good, bro. And so by that time, I was like, man, I didn't want 88. I could have got 88. But I just I just didn't I didn't

I didn't feel like I looked right in the 88 so I said you know what Frank Wainwright he was with me in Denver for in camp one year like a year before and he was there I said we called him Freaky Frank I said Freaky Frank what you want for that number man

he's like Sharpie like Sharpie you know I'll let you have it I said nah Freaky Frank I said so what you like to do what's your hobbies I's like, Sharpie, like Sharpie, you know, I'll let you have it. I said, nah, Freaky Frank. I said, so what you like to do? What's your hobbies? I mean, you got a hobby? He said, Sharpie, I love to fish. Oh, that's right. You bought him a basketball.

Yeah, yeah. Okay, okay, okay. So, hey, even Swamp ain't no swindle. Right, right. It was great. He got me. Matter of fact, you just said Jermaine Lewis. I want to make sure I'm not thinking about the wrong person.

Jermaine Lewis that played for the Saints too, right? No, he was with Baltimore. I got the wrong person? The one that ran the kickoff back in the Super Bowl? The return? Right. Okay. I'm thinking about somebody else.

I'm thinking about a dude. He was working. I got the wrong name. He was working a truck. He was selling beer. Yeah, I know who you're talking about. No, not him. No, not him. Okay, working. He was working a truck. He was selling beer. Yeah, I know. No, not him. Not him.

No. OK, OK, OK, OK, OK, OK. I thought his name was Jermaine Lewis, too. Wake up with football every morning and listen to my new podcast, NFL Daily with Greg Rosenthal.

Drea Michelle says she's struggling after pregnancy announcement over criticism over Jalen Green. She wrote on

Instagram, I feel like I'm at the bottom of the pile of heavy humans. Most hours of the day, I feel like I'm struggling to breathe. Before that, Drea appeared to respond to criticism around the age gap between her and green by sharing a social media post about being misunderstood. Despite not confirming their relationship,

a recent post on Jalen's Instagram story appeared to show that he recently got a tattoo that reads that reads Dre. Yeah. I'm just trying to think, what are we misunderstanding? You're 39. He's 21 or 22. Okay. I got no problem. I'm just saying, what are we misunderstanding? You're 39. He's 21 or 22. Okay, I got no problem.

I'm just saying, what's the misunderstanding? I mean, listen, I think Jerry has been in the game for a while. Yeah. You hear me? Stay with me now. Chat, y'all stay with me. Jerry has been in the game for a while. You know what comes to the territory when you make certain decisions.

Yes. You know, you're a public figure and you got people that's going to always be in your life, going to be in your business because you are a public figure and you've been doing it for a while. So you understood the criticism that was going to come because of the situation

of y'all dealing with each other for one and having a child together. There should be no reason to be stressed. No. There should be no reason for you to feel bad. You made your bed, you got to lie in it. I'm happy for both of you. I ain't got no problem with it,

but you know that was coming. Matter of fact, she don't need to be stressed about what nobody talking about anyway because now you carrying a baby, you got to make sure that baby healthy. Ain't worry about what nobody saying because ain't nobody going to be feeding you.

Ain't nobody going to be paying no bills. Ain't nobody talking shit going to help change nanny pimple or be a nanny. Fuck them. Excuse my language. Yeah, I get it. Yeah, I mean, Dre got to have that

I don't give a fuck attitude. Especially in the limelight. You've been in the limelight for a little minute now you shouldn't care about what nobody got to say at this point i don't get where she said the misunderstanding is coming from you well i think the misunderstanding on who she is in a decision that she made because all all of us all i'm saying all of us because i ain't had nothing bad to say but i'm saying everybody has something to say on what she's doing. Yeah, are we missing anything? On the decision that she's made.

But Dre, you know, I know if I don't date somebody 52 or 57? Yeah. Ah, man. That's all. I don't know what he want with him, but you're all bad.

He bad ass. Right. I'm like, well, what? Why are you? I just not like i said i i it don't make me no it don't make me a difference i mean you like who you like yeah and that's at the end of the day see that's the problem you go try to well i gotta find some instead of finding somebody that loves you and you love them you try to well i want So I got to get somebody that's maybe three years younger than me, similar background than me, go to the same type of church, maybe the same political affiliation, maybe the same color as me.

So you love, damn love. I got to do all this because I don't want society to judge me or I don't want my community. Damn society, it's our community. It's us. Yeah. Everybody on there, but they make it seem like they perfect.

A lot of women that's criticizing Drea got three, four babies from three, four different dudes. Yeah. And a lot of dudes that judge, they got three or four babies from three or four different baby mama. That's why I don't judge. Cause I got three baby mama.

I got three. Listen, listen. I never judge anyway, regardless whether you got one or you got two. I gave my robe away. Sometimes life happens. I used to have a robe. I gave it away. A judging robe.

I gave it away, though. Yeah, I gave it away. Yeah, I feel you. I ain't never had no judging robe. Listen, we all make our own decisions. We all make our own decisions we all make our own decisions whether wrong or right or indifferent everybody's not going to agree with those decisions but you know who got to live with them me you the person making them yes the person making them that's it so what

other people have to say that are not feeding you paying no goddamn, you shouldn't pay them no money. It's like it's water off a duck's back. Water off a duck's back. Have your opinion. Because the people doing all the talking, half of them mad. Talk about the women. Half of them mad because you never ever have the opportunity to talk to someone

in that position to begin with. Hey, no, I just need to know. Let's start there. Tell my tell me why you really tell me why you really mad come on now which one i need which one of the three else are you doing are you feeding you financing or you effing now which one are you doing oh you ain't doing none of them you're doing one of them no no but everybody got them. But everybody got an opinion, though. Everybody got an opinion. And they motherfucking life ain't straight.

Yo, man, shit. Listen, we in this economy, I ain't worried about nobody else that's having a child that I ain't paying. Hell no. For what? For what? But I mean, listen, that society, that society for you, that's the times

that we're in. If we do something, everybody has to chime in on it. Everybody has to say something about it. Everybody got a piece and they quit.

Man, man, you got that dog at the table, you're dirty. And I bet you if I go to their house right now,

None of my, none of my money is going to go to support Drea. None of my money is going to go to support anybody. I don't care if he's 75 and she 25. Ain't none of that. He got no, it ain't me. Right. Right. Listen, it don't make me no never mind it don't make me no never mind but when she starts allowing the public to cause her to feel a certain way why are you carrying like come on now i am y'all y'all don't do that don't do do that. You done been in this space.

You done been in this light for a very long time where things that people say about you should not bother you. And this is the time where they shouldn't be bothering you right now, especially while you're carrying that angel. It's one thing. I don't play by them kids now. I mean, it ain't even mine. I'm just saying in general.

I don't play by them kids now. Y'all got nothing to do with me. Listen, for one, again, half for one again half the women half the women i'm gonna just be honest with you now half of them half of mad but damn i wish that was me but since it ain't me i'm finna fine i'm finna say anything i i wouldn't do this father the motherfucking lie goddamn lie she reposted get comfortable being misunderstood only a fraction of the people will be able to truly grasp your essence. You're not on anyone else's timeline of comprehension.

Also, it's none of your business how others choose to perceive you. Most high sees you clearly. Let that be enough. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, for sure. Yeah. See, man, I wouldn't be doing all them goddamn quotes and scriptures and all that long writing

and IG messaging. Man, listen, fuck y'all. That's it. That's it. And live that way. And live that way. I don't care. I know. What?

I wish Dre had a little bit of just a little bit of my mentality. You know, or not giving a fuck oh yeah you date white women why it ain't you it don't matter what it was you didn't you weren't an option

right black white Asian Hispanic Dominican Russian you weren't you weren't you weren't a choice at no point in time at any point in time in Shannon Sharp adult dating life, you were never going to be an option.

So it shouldn't matter to you. You've been spending all day time. I don't care. I don't care who anybody date. I don't care if they can have a donkey. I don't care if they got a goat. They got a sheep. That ain't got nothing to do with me because I'm not paying for it. Why would I worry myself with something I ain't got nothing to do with me because I'm not paying for it. Yeah.

Why would I worry myself with somebody paying for Ojo? Yeah, you're right. Listen, I told you before. I told you before. People will never, ever, ever, ever get where they want to be because they always in there. Always. You never know what's on your plate when your motherfucking hand always in somebody else's. Even if it's small stuff like that.

So if you're always in somebody else's business that have nothing to do with you, that let me know you don't have enough going on in your life. If you're always in somebody else's shit and always got something to say about somebody else's shit, that let me know you don't have enough

going on in your life to be worried about what they doing. Who they fucking, who they dating. It shouldn't matter. It shouldn't matter to you. Man, you know who such and such? I know who it's not. I don't know who it is.

And the who? The fence post ain are going to know. Meet her in the fence post. Right. In the fence post. In the fence post they ain't going to talk. That's the problem. Everybody in everybody's business. Everybody got, oh, 25-year-old Trayvon Diggs

is expecting his third child with 35-year-old influence in Joey Chavis. Joey Chavis has a child, two children, one from Bow Wow and one from Future. Now she's expecting her third child from Terry Von Diggs. Guess how many of them children

I gotta pay for Ocho? Guess how much money I gotta spend on pamphlets, baby formula, school tuition, nannies, doctor bills. So why I care? I ain't judging that man.

Guess what? I know another guy got three kids from three different women. And when people say, and when people say, Hey, Shannon Sharp got three kids from three different women. How many are you paying for? How many are you going to send to college? How many are you sending to private school? That many?

Listen, we all have kids. Multiple kids. And every last one I'm taking care of. Every last one I'm taking care of. They ain't got nothing to worry about. Those, those, those I have kids from, ain't never got nothing to worry about. If they ever need

something, they know the call. Ain't got no problem. Ain't nothing to worry about. If they ever need something. Yes. They know the call. Ain't got no problem. Ain't nothing to worry about the rest of your life. Ever. Man, one of them. Man, how many kids you got? As many as I can pay for.

That's how many I got. I'm with you when you're right. I'm with you when you're right. I'm with you when you're right. I'm with you when you're right. I'm with you when you're right. I help create them. Take them to the bed. Take care of them. That's what I worry about.

Yeah. Look, and people say, Shannon, if that was your daughter, me and my daughter, the oldest daughter, because she lived with me, we have a great relationship. If she came to me and she said,

Daddy, I'm dating somebody 20 years older than me. Baby, he make you happy? I say, you understand now, when you get this age, he's going to be that age. You okay? Because you might have to take care of him. Daddy, that's my responsibility. I

married this man because I love him. I love the way he makes me feel. I love how he treats me. I love the man that he is. Take off. Yeah. I like that. And the funny thing about it, anytime you express yourself on a certain topic that's going on or that's being talked about publicly, the first thing people do is say, what if that was your son? Yes. Or what if that was your daughter? Always. They're grown. They always do that. They are grown at this Always. They're grown. They always do that.

They are grown at this point. They're grown at this point. Listen, Dre and Trayvon, I mean Dre and Trayvon. Joy. Joy and Trayvon Diggs. I wish them none but the best. And that's a blessing. That's a blessing. You know? So, I'm happy

It would never change. I don't know the type of relationship... It would never change because there's a certain excitement. There's a certain excitement about negativity. Oh, come here. Hey, come here, baby. I didn't know you was here.

Look who just called in, man. That's real. Look at real. She just came through. She was out in them streets. Hey, baby. Hey. I was at an event.

chat chat i mean listen we got to do better we got to do better especially when it comes to being other people's business i know we we yearn for negativity. We yearn for stories. We yearn for that type of content. I mean, it's always fun to know what's going on in other people's lives, especially when it comes to celebrities. We tend to talk down on the decisions that they've made. We talk about the men. We talk about the women.

But I think a large percentage of you, if the opportunities at times presented think a large percentage of you, if the opportunities at times presented themselves with these type of individuals that don't get to rub shoulders with all the time, because we are normal people, us normal folks, we are not really in those circles of those A-listers or athletes or superstars in their respective crafts. And when you're in that environment and you are introduced to the environment, I think, you know, it kind of warps your decision making a little bit, you know. And that's pretty much it. I don't know what else to say other than I'm happy for Brother Jalen Green and Andrea, Trayvon Diggs and Joy.

I'm happy. That's Joy. I'm happy. That's dope. I like it. Little bundles of joy, little blessings. Some people aren't going to like it, you know, because of the age difference. And there shouldn't be any reason why anyone would have any ill will or anything negative to say about Joy and Trayvon. Those are two grown consenting adults that chose to have a child that love each other

and that wishes nothing but the best. And at some point, I can see marriage on the horizon. I can see marriage on the horizon. And Stefan Diggs would probably be the best man. And it'd be a destination wedding.

It'd be a destination wedding. And yeah, that's pretty much it. That's pretty much it. But that's neither here nor there. That's exciting. And since we were talking about free agency, hey, Odell, Odell Beckham, I don't know if you're in the chat,

but if you're not in the chat, somebody's going to make sure you get this message. Come on down to Cincinnati. Come on down to Cincinnati. Let me know what you think about that. What you think about that? Catching balls, pause from Joe Burrow. Huh? What you think about that? Cincinnati. They got a Waffle House in Covington. We got Jeff Ruby Steakhouse. We got Jay Alexander's in Hyde Park. They don't have the butter croissants anymore, Odell, but you will love it. You will love it. So let me know what you think. Text my phone because I'm on wifi right now. I ain't paid my bill, but I'm on wifi right now. Chat, what y'all think about that?

You held it down for me? Odell to Cincinnati. Yeah, I held it down for you. Iincinnati yeah i had it down for you i just i just did a little recap on drea drea and joy and and all them and and then i then moved back in the free agency and tell me what you think about odell coming to cincinnati yeah yeah we're good we're good so what were you saying i heard the last part i heard you said the community we need to come together and stop being so judgmental so critical of people in our own community. And then what I said after that is us normal folks that don't get to rub shoulders with the higher ups in those circles. If the opportunity presented itself, 98 percent of those that's talking shit would actually go as well.

That's all. So'll probably be in the same situation as the people you're talking about and they probably gonna say nah i wouldn't do that because i got morals and i got values and man never say what you were doing until you win it's easy to say when it probably never happened anyway but but yeah and that's it then i switched back over to free agency and i was sending Odell a message to tell Odell to come to Cincinnati because we got good food in Cincinnati. And how would you like to catch balls, halls, in your borough? Because the thing is, you know what I hear? Man, no matter how much money I got, I wouldn't do it.

Bro, these women, first of all, y'all'all got five thousand dollars and you got a three thousand dollar purse so what you mean you mean to tell me if you had 10 million 15 million dollars you wouldn't buy this guys think about what you're living you're driving a 70 000 car living in an apartment you mean to tell me you made 40 million dollars 50 million dollars a year you wouldn't do this stop lying see y'all say stuff because y'all want social media to agree with you guys so bad. That's what you want. But I know you're lying. So

you made $50 million a year, and you're going to live in the exact same neighborhood. You're going to live the exact same way. Eat the exact same food. You will lie in your nickname, but they call you Buki. Baby, I have a question. You will lie your nickname, but they call you bookie. Baby. I have a question.

Yeah, see, y'all got a different kind of money, man. I can't. Go ahead, go ahead, go ahead. Go ahead and sit right there. I'm taking over today. So what was your thought process? What was your thinking on what Ocho asked? I feel like it's a beautiful thing.

They are in a relationship. And if they want to have a child, let them have a child. No one has to take care of their kids. They're not on... He's so extra. This is my time to shine. Damn!

No, I think it's a beautiful thing. Drea is a great mother and Joey is a great mother. So, they'll be good. Ocho. Man, Ocho. Drea tried to He need to get thick. Drell tried to get her moment.

This is her video moment. And you all in the camera like P.D. Get over there. I'm going to take my shot. I'm taking over. Y'all finished? Yeah, so we just wanted to get Ocho and I. We have our thoughts and we kind of in alignment.

So we wanted to hear from a female perspective and to hear what your thinking is. No, I think it's a great thing. Both of the ladies are amazing mothers. They will be fine. Dreshen
