You'll never see nobody play. Whoa, I played professional play professional football and basketball. You'll never see nobody play. Whoa, whoa, whoa. I play professional soccer and football. Hey, you know what I'm thinking about? Like I'm thinking about, you know, the presidency.
Starting point is 00:33:18 I'm thinking about the two people who are running that we have to choose from. And I always thought, obviously, I'm really not into politics as heavy as I'd like. I have family members that are. Don Lemon, we're related, he's into politics really good. Mark Lamont, Anthony Hill, he's another cousin of mine. He's really into politics. But I would love to represent the people. You know that? And it's probably, I'm not the right person to do so,
Starting point is 00:33:54 but I would just love to be in that position of power, you know, to be the president. Like, cause you imagine what I could do. You know, if I was in the highest seat, can you can you imagine the changes I would make, you know, when we talk about someone representing and being for the people like that's me, like I live by that, like I really live it. I don't talk it like, you know, part of being part of politics is talking and selling a dream, getting people to actually vote for you. But what the people need is somebody that like me that actually, you know,
Starting point is 00:34:30 talk the talk and actually walks it. I'm really like that. Like I could just imagine my, my, I just, when it's time for me to give a speech, you know, and I, and I started my speeches with, you know, for the American people, I just want you to know I fucking love you. And then I would get into whatever the topics are at hand. Like I just, I would just be perfect for that, you know? I'm just, I just thought about that just after watching that ad and I don't know, man. Damn. No. The thing the thing is Ocho you got a lot of being politics and you say you're gonna be for the people but the thing is that you need those big donors
Starting point is 00:35:14 that go on the campus. So what you think they wanna return? What you think they wanna return? Oh yeah, I got them, I got them. I got them, one hand him. I got him. One hand, broke the other, man. You got it. I understand the political game very well, man. But this is the problem. The people don't understand it. I don't think the people understand it. Now I'm not now we're not gonna make this a political
Starting point is 00:35:37 goddamn debate because this is nightcap. Not Fox News or CNN, but you know, I'm gonna let that be. We'll say that for another date and another, yeah, yeah. I can get into it. I can get into a good. I ain't gonna do that. Uncle Ocho, love the show. Uncle, do you think you could do 225 for more ref than Ocho could do 185?
Starting point is 00:36:00 Do you think you could do 225 on the bench for more ref than Ocho could do 185? Why why would he discredit me and put me at 185 when I could do 225 as well? What is he trying to say? But you only gonna do it for one rep. So he's trying to give you an advantage 225 I could do 225 27 times. What did you talk about? Ocho I tell you what I'd be willing to do. I put up a million dollars say you can't do it 20 oh Run me my money. You're gonna run me my money. No chance This is what people fail to do people always have an eye test people always use the visual
Starting point is 00:36:36 Listen to me stay with me now, baby People always use the visual and look at something and say you got a t-shirt on you got a t-shirt on you got a t-shirt I don't know for the that. His frame is small. He should be able to do this. You got a t-shirt on up under that? Yeah. Take it, take that off. Let me show the people. Yeah, I know. Hey, y'all ladies don't be looking at me now. Yeah. Yeah. Let me come up at this thing. Let me come up at this thing. Yeah, you see that? Look at that, look at that.
Starting point is 00:37:11 I do. I just look like this. I just look like this. I have a small frame, but I'm strong. You ain't doing no 225. How you gonna tell me and I've done it? I've done 225 27 times. No.
Starting point is 00:37:27 I just look like this. Hey, pull up, pull up, Ocho. I'll tell you what we can do. We can pull up what you did at the combine. What is the combine? What's the combine? Ain't got nothing to do with it. You talking about right now.
Starting point is 00:37:36 Ocho, first of all, this is how I know you can't do 227. Because when you went to the combine, that was your op, hold on. I didn't even lift. Let me finish, let me finish. The combine was when you're on the job interview. You were gonna be at your absolute best.
Starting point is 00:37:52 You're gonna be at your fastest. You're gonna be at your best because that's the job interview. You don't even lift like that anymore. I'm not so sure you could do 225.5 times. I didn't even lift weights at the combine. All I needed to do was run my 40 and run routes. Once they saw my routes, that was it.
Starting point is 00:38:10 That sealed the deal. That's how I know you can't do 225, 27 reps. Talk about now. Talk about now. Now if you said you'd do 185 like 10 times, I'd say, oh, you might get there. No, no, no, no. You might get there.
Starting point is 00:38:23 I'm very strong despite my frame. I am extremely strong. So if you might get that. You might get that. I'm very strong despite my frame. I am extremely strong.
