This episode of Nightcap is brought to you by ColaolaGuard, a non-invasive colon cancer screening test. Did you know colon cancer is considered one of the most preventable, yet least prevented cancers?

When caught in the early stages, colon cancer has a survival rate of 90%. So screening and early detections are key to reducing overall colon cancer deaths. That's why the American Cancer Society recommends that if you're at average risk, you begin screening for colon cancer at age 45. And a convenient way to do that is with colar guard tests.

The colar guard tests allow you to be in control of your colon cancer screening through prescription-based tests delivered to your door with none of the prep that's required for colonoscopy. No liquid prep, no days off, no invasive procedures. Plus, Coligar test is affordable. Most insured patients pay zero dollars and a follow-up colonoscopy is needed after a positive Coligar test. This is usually covered by insurance also. So, if you're 45 years of older and at average risk, you can ask your healthcare provider

about screening for colon cancer with the coliRectal test. You can also request a coliRectal prescription today at coliRectal.com slash podcast. The coliRectal test is intended to screen adults 45 and older at average risk of coliRectal cancer. Do not use coliRectal test if you have had athenomas, have inflammatory bowel disease, and certain hereditary syndromes,

or personal or family history of coliRectal cancer. The coliRectal test is not a replacement for colonoscopies. High-risk patients coliRGuard test in adults 45 to 49 is estimated based on a large clinical study of patients 50 and older. False positives and false negatives can occur. ColiRGuard is available by prescription only. [♪ music playing. A&M theme song. A&M theme song. A&M theme song. A&M theme song. A&M theme song. A&M theme song. A&M theme song. A&M theme song.

Let me borrow something that I can't pay back. O-C-O-Digazua. Did I pronounce that right? O-S-A. O-S-A. O-Digazua. Yup. It's good to be here. Thank you guys for having me., I think you're sure.

Yep, it's good to be here. Thank you guys for having me. No, thank you for that. Congratulations on the deal. You seemingly really came into your own this year, doing a great job of attacking the run, put collapse in the pocket, getting to the quarterback. What was different this year than in years past? I think just more experience, you know what I mean?

Just getting more reps and then more opportunity, the most that I've ever played, the most that I've ever gotten that ruster passers. So I feel like just having more looks at it, more chances at it, is just always gonna allow me to be better. You feel me? Because copycat league,

you're getting the same blocks over and over. So the game starts to slow down a little bit. I can like start to play the game within a game a little bit more. Well, considering that you went up again for the last three years, you went up against one of the greatest guards in NFL history, Zack Martin.

So I can imagine what those one-on-ones and that nine-oh-seven and that team setting was like. Yeah. Because it kind of prepared you and you had to feel, man, if I can get off a block against Zack Martin, none of you other guys got a chance. If I can beat him on a one-on-one pass rush, you guys don't have a chance. Is that what you were thinking? Bro, literally. I mean like, you know on Sunday, I know that the best guys that I went against all week, he's just right there to my left. Yeah. Away. So I don't really have to worry

about anybody else. Like I know that, and people ask me like, who's the best guy that you've ever gone against? I'm like, that's a, I go against him every day. So that is a legend. So I got so much respect for him. And he's definitely, definitely helped me sharpen all of my tools since I've been in the league. Listen, what, what factors influence your decision to commit to the Cowboys long-term? I definitely love my team.

Okay. Yeah. You feel me? Uh, the routine and being in Dallas and everything that I have set up out here. I definitely love my team. Okay. Yeah, you feel me The routine and being in Dallas and everything that I have About here is conducive to the what I got going on Right. That's part of the reason why I'm in this position to be able to get more money anyways So the show so I think that's just as valuable as more money

you know and I feel like with that being the case or and trying to like chase more for the sake of more like you know what I mean? Because it's like you can always just try and get a little bit more just like trying and and get like every dollar that you possibly, and like you know what I mean? I just, it was a very good deal, bro, like, and I was happy with it, like, it was a life-changing money, like. Well definitely, well definitely.

I got to, like, moms is good forever. And you in Texas, no state taxes, so the money that you might've gotten, let's just say for the sake of argument, you got an extra $10 million over the life of the contract somewhere else. You gonna save that in state taxes. So the money that you might have gotten let's just say for the sake of argument You got an extra ten million dollars over the life of the contract somewhere else You're gonna save that in state taxes by not having state taxes there. So for me, I'm looking at you Osa is that what can I what can I do with 80 million that I need to be able to do with 90 million? That's what I'm saying. That's like, yeah. It doesn't open or close any doors, bro.

Like once you're already in the realm of life changing, generational wealth, like, right. Like, you know what I mean? It doesn't really move the needle for how, for how I'm gonna be living my life or what I can do. So I know I'm smart enough. I got good people around me that are gonna be able to help me make more money on on that off the field

Just um You feel me? We're set. Yeah You get it when you get a contract of this magnitude, right? You already had personal goals before you got it. You have team goals as a whole Now that you've gotten the contract have your personal goals change not only still the same. I Mean still chasing greatness, bro. There's still things. Like, I haven't reached the level

that I feel like I'm capable of yet, in terms of my play, in terms of being at the very top of the league and reaching that pinnacle. So, and obviously, like, team-wise, like, we haven't touched any of those. So that's still all out there to play for. Like now that the money is out of the way, it's just all the things that you love about football

and the competitive aspect of it and just trying to be great now. What happened? Oh, I will go ahead. What happened this year? A lot. Oh, I was glad what what happened this year? a lot Bro like I mean between injuries like having having uh

New d coordinated those growing pains at the beginning Just just a lot of things happen bro throughout the course of the season a lot of things that nobody could really control I feel like the things that we could control, as far as like attitude and approach and just and just still competing to the very end, I feel like we we did what we needed to do there. And that's promising just the mentality of the team. So I feel like that's something that we could build off of for sure. But you guys seem to struggle against the run the last three to four years Also, you guys have struggled against the run Why is it so difficult and I understand you guys want to play an attacking style defense when you had DQ? He wants to attack play go to the get to the quarterback you play that attacking style that 43 get to the quarterback same thing with them

Why why do you think it's been so difficult for you guys to stop the run? Um Same thing with Zem. Why do you think it's been so difficult for you guys to stop the run? That's a tough one. There's a lot that goes into it, you know what I mean? Like I feel like just being able to do just as good at the run later in the game as we are in the beginning of the game. Because I feel like we don't start out just, you know what I mean?

Like, but against the run, I feel like, obviously we had a game where we started slow, but I feel like for the most part, like we do a very good job at the beginning of the game, stopping the run. It's just those later runs, like, they break them eventually. So I feel like just getting those down

and just locking in even more, just to be able to To do a better job of stopping the run a little bit later in the game. Mm-hmm Hey, when you think about it, listen as a as a football enthusiast like myself. I Like the Cowboys. I like the players on the Cowboys. I like the Cowboys fans Now I don't like the way things are running Dallas I'm not gonna say anything bad about your own or anything, but I would like to ask you, Jerry Jones last year said he was going to be all in.

Is there anything that you would like to see ownership do to improve the team to give you guys a better chance at not only competing in the NFC, but for Lombardi trophy any additions you'd like I Know an old Lyman for sure. Okay, just we just lost lost Zack Martin so definitely gonna need to pick up a little because You know, that's a big part of our our team. I feel like you've got to build from the front back. Right.

Obviously more D tackles. Me and Mazzi as of now. So getting a little bit more depth behind us and adding to the D line room. Like I said building from the front back. That's going to be very important. I feel like that's just if you're if you're trying to win football games, you gotta focus on that line.

Right. You got your money, and now it's Micah. You see Dak restructured his contract, CD Land restructured his, gave him nearly $40 million, about $37 million in cap relief, so they got some money to play with.

Micah just saw what Max Crosby got the most money for a non quarterback in NFL history. I Think Mike over there barbecue chicken pizza hamburger chicken Like I didn't say that first because I just felt like that was so obvious, it goes without saying, bro. Yeah, most definitely. We got to bring Micah back, you know what I mean? I think he's going anywhere, but get that deal done. So that's just like a no-brainer, bro. It goes without saying, gotta get 11 right.

Yeah, and we can't wait until the end of training camp before week one starts to get it done either. Nah. I think that's just, that's probably priority number one to be honest. Yeah. Can I ask you a question, Osa? When Jerry is constantly in the headlines, he's saying things like, do you like,

come on Jerry, come on Jerry, stall us out, man. Let us just play with all the distractions that you're creating. No, Unki, can't answer that. I don't do it as a distraction, bro. Okay. You know what I mean? Like, what he says doesn't affect what we do out there on the field. Like, I'm the one out there on the field, bro. Like, that's not even something I really think about. Or let it distract me, bro,

because I know I'm in the driver's seat when I'm on the field. So are the other 10 guys out there with me? So are the 11 guys on offense in control of the situation. You do realize, now when he says This team is as talented as those 90 Super Bowls team And you guys go out there and stack it up now either

He's either he's misguided or you guys are not nearly as talented as he thinks now It's only one or two choices posted But you saw right now I'm not now, I'm not gonna lie. I'm not gonna lie, but I wouldn't even say it's an issue with talent, I'm just like, sometimes the execution is just, obviously in the games that we didn't win, execution just wasn't where it needed to be.

I don't think it's a question of talent at all. No, I don't think so. So what is, you mentioned team six, I don't think it's a question of talent at all. No, I don't think so. So what is, you mentioned team success. Obviously you wanna get to an NFC championship game. You wanna get to the Super Bowl, potentially win that. But individual, pro bowl, all pro, what's next? What would you like to have when it's all said and done? When we come back, we have a conversation

and we sit down with you, let's just say for the sake of argument ten years from now and you're hanging your cleats up What do you want to be on your resume? That's exactly what you just said bro pro bowl all pro These are the things that I look at and that's exactly what I mean when I say there's still a lot out there for me To play for and a lot of things that I haven't accomplished yet. Oh Joe? You've gotten paid. I'm thinking about the time of my goals that I set once I'd gotten paid, right? All-Pro, obviously at some point I would love to reach the Super Bowl.

I wasn't able to do that. You did go to the Super Bowl! No, I'm talking about when I was in Cincinnati. Oh, that ain't happening. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Come on, don't be disrespectful. I'm talking about my Bengals. I'm talking about my Bengals.

From a team standpoint, obviously speaking defensively, what do you think you guys need to do better to start the season off right to get that identity back for you guys to get back into, and I don't want to say contention is not the right word. Back into the good graces of just being a good defense in general, being that it's been bad, I mean no disrespect, being that it's been bad, I mean no disrespect,

being that it hasn't been up the par, I'll say it like that. What do you guys need to do? We gotta shut people down, bro. Right, just the run, just the run, that's it. Shut the run down, like we can, if we force people to throw the ball, you know what I mean? Like we can pass rush with the best of them, bro.

So definitely getting that run stopped and forcing them into those throwing situations which they don't wanna be in, which has always been something that was obvious since I've been a rookie is like, that's the last thing that teams wanna do when they're coming to play the Cowboys, is this, they don want to throw the ball

so We got to force them to throw the ball and and play our game, you know Mm-hmm Cowboys defensive lineman. Oh, sir. I diggy zoa Recently signed big lucrative contract. He has his money now now He really gets to focus and become the player that he dreamed he could become. Oh, yeah. Pro Bowler on All Pro and hopefully get the team to the Super Bowl. Also, thank you for joining us. Congratulations on the contract. Stay healthy and we are we're checking with you down the road. Yes, sir. Thank you. Thank you for joining. Don't forget to eat McDonald's.

What? You're different bro, like I wish I was one of those could just eat McDonald's and and and just go kill it Yeah, I gotta actually I gotta go mess with that meal prep I gotta go mess with that meal prep. Shout out to you. I got you, I got you. Exactly. Appreciate it, bro. Have a good one, man.

Stay healthy. Appreciate you. Bet. Oh, Joe, we got some breaking news tonight. Whoa, whoa, whoa. What happened? It just happened just now? The Chargers have released five-time pro-baller

Joey Bosa. Releasing Bosa saved the Chargers $25.36 million against their cap. Wait what? Who do you think should pick him up? Bengals? If Joey Bolsa is gone, then this would be the perfect opportunity. Now he can't command that much money, right? He just got released. Trey Henderson is due a huge deal. I'm not sure if the Bengals are gonna be able to pay him. What about Joey Bolosa coming to Cincinnati?

What do you think, huh? Yeah, but he's gonna still want big money, Ocho. Wait a minute now. Joey Bosa, listen, you can't be commanding that kind of money when you haven't been performing the way you should. They just released you for a reason. Yeah. Stay with me.

Andrew, I mean, he's been nicked a lot. He's been nicked, he's been injured. So you can't come in and talk about, oh, I want the bag, I'm talking about the bag bag. You've already, he's already gotten the bag bag. No, he's not gonna command Max Crosby money. No, no, no. But he's gonna want big money. He's gonna want big money, Ocho.

He's gonna want north of 20 million. Listen, we gonna give him a little something. We ain't gonna do him dirty. We're gonna give me a little something We need to upgrade our defense This is the perfect time to do so now Trey Henderson is going to be able to command much more than with Joey Bosa We get so I understand that I just Huh? He's gonna want that Max Crosby money. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

That's why I say I'm not sure. We will be able to retain Brother Henderson, you know, allow him to be blessed elsewhere, you know, bring Max Crosby in. I mean, bring Max Crosby in. Bring Joey Voce in and see what we can do. What you think, no? Look, the charges are trying to clear cap space.

The thing is, this is $25 million for a guy that's over the last several years, Ochoa has been nicked. He's spent more time off the field than on the field. That's a lot of money. If Joey Bosa was playing 15, 16 games a season, would still give you that production. When they gave him that big money,

Right. 25, I mean, $25 million cap here, for a guy that's giving you 12, 13 sacks, is gravy. Yes, sir. But it's because of the injuries. And, you know, I'm looking at them, I mean, they're gonna probably, they're probably gonna go out and try to, Khalil Mack is interested in what they're gonna do with Mack. Yeah.

Cause he's gonna probably want to get extended. Yeah, they can't get rid of everybody now. You probably, huh? They can't get rid of everybody now. No, no, no, no, no, no. You got two premier ends, now you let one go now You can't let the other one go You got there. Well you got Durbin James. That's making a lot of money on the back end. Yeah

You got Khalil that's making good money, but he's gonna probably want to get extended Again No, I mean you gotta realize what you'll heat contract, he got what, one year left on his contract? As what's the Khalil Mack situation? I think he has like one year, Ocho. Okay. Damn.

But you know, Ocho, coaches, players, nobody wants to go into that last year deal. That's lame duck Yeah, yeah, cuz bro what if you do you believe me me or you don't it's really there I mean especially cuz I've been in this league. I've been defensive player of the year. I y'all y'all know what I'm Do you believe in me? Right? Are you know if I'm not mistaken? I think Matt Mac went to the Pro Bowl last year So he's like clearly the coaches and the players and the fans think I'm still playing at elite level Yeah, he's a free agent. Yeah. Oh, he's three Yeah, so they may listen and I'm not gonna call I'm Mac Mac come on to Cincinnati, too Oh, but hey, listen, I don't like what's going on, man. Tyler Lockett, you know, Tyler

Lockett probably, Tyler Lockett probably gonna end up going out there with Pete Carroll. Yeah, that's a good chance. Yep. Yep. They familiar. Yep. They familiar with each other. They know each other. He drafted it. Yeah. Devontae Adams. Now Jerry Jones. Jerry Jones I know you're gonna see this because somebody gonna send it to you. Now DK McAf has been granted permission to see your trade. Jerry Jones if you really all in. If you want the fan. He wants the 30 million. He wants in that 30 million range. You're not finna have two receivers making 30 million and a quarterback making that kind of money and you got to sign Micah And what am I coming from? What you can I can ask you a question? Do you hear what you just say, right? Yes, you're everything you just said so I know I have a lot of fans

That are from Cincinnati in this chat and based on what you just said Why do we still believe we'll be able to keep a 30 million dollar receiver, a 40 million dollar receiver, and a 50 million dollar quarterback, based off what you just said. And a 30 million dollar defensive end that. I don't know. Yeah, it's tough. I wouldn't want to be a GM.

I wouldn't want to be an owner. Because I'm going to act like the Yankees. I'm spinning everything. Whatever penalty I get for being over the cap, I'll take it. Because I'm signing everybody Oh Joe the Eagles have agreed to a two-year 42.1 million dollar extension with Saquon to the throne C Mac of the NFL highest paid running back He became the first running back ever to eclipse 20 million dollars average

Value our average annual value just edging out the 19 million um uh current deal with the 49ers remember I told you so Joe I said look they're going to extend him yeah he's been he's been too he's been too valuable he's been a model citizen he's everything you could hope for as an organization. Plays hard, good, great teammate, great in the community, great in the city. You never have to worry about sleeping with your phone on ring and going off. Hey, Coach Serrani, Howie, Mr. Lurie, we have issue with Saquon.

You don't worry about that. You want to wear those guys in your locker room as you possibly can The guys that are unselfish the guys that want to play at an extremely high level football is very important to them Great in the community No fan fit that's what you want. So I'm not surprised That they did this now the Ravens are looking like a day Henry like what about your boy what about your boy cuz you see all the touchdowns I think I had more touchdowns in the regular season I average 5.9 yards a carry even though I

I hey hey break rate in the area somewhere in the area but listen say Kwan is early this song he deserves hey look I got to have the biggest house in the subdivision but can I move into subdivision yeah that's it put me on the car I got the biggest house on the block uh-huh but I just want to be on the same block that's it I just want to be on the same block. That's it. I just want to be in the Crocosac. Put me in the corner. That's it.

Put me in the corner. You mean, Crocosac or Crocosac? Oh, my bad. Crocosac. My bad. My bad. My bad. Yeah.

I was like, Crocosac, that's a burlap bag. I don't know if you want to be in there. I was thinking about something else. My bad. I appreciate you correcting me though. It's Julie Stewart Banks. I'm doing a new podcast from iHeart Podcasts and the National Hockey League, and I'm paired up with one of my favorite players,

the always quotable Nate Thompson. I wore nine NHL sweaters and I have story after story to share. And believe it or not, I have plenty to say, and not just about hockey. Believe me, he does. Energy Line with Nate and JSB is the name of the podcast and it's gonna be, well, it's gonna be quite the ride.

We're officially line mates, Nate. We're the Energy Line. We'll have plenty of folks join us, current players, some of my former teammates, Hall of Famers, and wait to see some of the connections that Julie has. She has quite the Rolodex. Okay, we'll lean into Nate's playing experience and tap into our interests away from hockey

and try to do what energy lines are supposed to do, provide an emotional boost. How do you feel about all that, Nate? I'm vibing, Julie. I'm ready to roll. Listen to Energy Line with Nate and JSB on the iHeartRadio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. It was a moment that should have broken me, but just because of how I was raised and my on the iHeartRadio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. It was a moment that should have broken me, but just because of how I was raised

and my bullishness and arrogance to want to be great hardened me. It gave me a platform to be so singularly focused on greatness. We all have moments like this. Something happens that's supposed to break us, but it's in these moments that we discover what we're really made of.

I promise you, if anyone knows this, it's me. I'm Ashlyn Harris. My name is Brendan Patrick Hughes, host of Divine Intervention. This is a story about radical nuns in combat boots and wild haired priests, trading blows with J. Edgar Hoover in a hell bent effort to sabotage a war.

J. Edgar Hoover was furious somebody violated the FBI and he wanted to bring the Catholic left to its knees. The FBI went around to all their neighbors and said to them, do you think these people are good Americans? It's got heists, tragedy, a trial of the century, and the God-damnedest love story you've ever heard.

I picked up the phone and my thought was, this is the most important phone call I'll ever make in my life. I couldn't believe it. I mean, Brendan, it was divine intervention. Listen to Divine Intervention starting on March 11th on the iHeartRadio app, new podcast, Quiet Please, with Mel. And Kira. We are bringing you spicy takes on sports and pop culture, some golf haps, and interviews with incredible people who have figured out how to make golf their superpower.

Yeah, it's actually life's cheat code and we're not going to be quiet about it on or off the course. We're bringing on some of our friends like Michelle Wee, Heather McMahon, Amanda Baleotis.

Let's see what he called that man at the end. If I'm not mistaken, did he call him a female's name at the end, Ocho? Y'all cannot let DK leave. Y'all can't do that. I don't think so. Like who, like who, like who am I having, like, how am I having fun out there?

Jack, he be crying all day. He cry, cause all he do is cry. Ref, he holding, he holding ref. Oh no, don't hurt me. Cry baby. Bro, not worried about JSM? Oh, no, don't hurt me Carbon Well, I worried about JSN not Jesse I'm not he say nice you call the day. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, that's funny man. That's funny That's funny cuz yeah

Watching him and DK go at it. They'd be going at it. It's funny man. It's It is what it never got to the extent like a Marshawn Ledermore and Mike Evans, but the few games that they see, they always going at it. It's hilarious. Oh, nah. The worst was Crabtree and Keith. Oh, and Keith Khalid?

Yeah. Hey, I saw Crabtree in Houston too, huh? We watched the fight together. Did you? Yeah, me, Crabtree in Houston too, huh? We watched the fight together. Did you? Yeah, me, Crabtree, Andre Johnson, and EJ, Edwin James. We was all in the same place. Yeah, that was cool. That was cool.

Mike said he'd be watching the show, man. That's dope, man. Everybody be watching, man. That's dope. Yeah, man. Everybody be watching, man, that's dope. Yeah, yeah, that is. Ocho, the Texans planned on letting Stefan Diggs test pre-agency, and Devontae Adams was cut by the Jets.

Cheetah tweeted about the recent receiver movement around the NFL. Everyone trying to get out. Why do you think there's so much movement with receivers currently, Ocho? I mean, I mean, you think of the receivers that are moving, most of them are the veterans, those that are, you know, up in age a little bit, trying to get out of the back end of those contracts. They obviously, you know, they're not going to allow lobby to hit the back end of the contracts. Cap hits. Obviously, DK wanting to be paid.

They're like, nah, we're not doing that, which is why they allowed them to seek a trade. Devontae Adams. Money. There's no way the Jets were paying the remaining of whatever the next year's salary was. Let me see. Stefan Diggs coming off an injury. He was only on the one year to begin with. ACL. Yeah, on ACL. was, let me see, Stefan Diggs coming off an injury. He was only on it one year to begin with.

ACL. Yeah, on ACL. So hopefully he gets the opportunity to get back healthy and find somewhere where he can contribute. And those are the reasons. And Brandon Iuke, the 49ers are, is being reported that they're willing to listen to trade for Brandon Iuke. Branden Ayuk, the 49ers are, is being reported, that they're willing to listen to trade for Branden Ayuk.

So he's another receiver that might be on the move. And you have to understand why they're doing that. Branden Ayuk, actually also coming off, what kind of injury on, if I'm not mistaken? Huh? Okay. What happened, Ojo? What kind of injuries are you coming off of?

ACL as well? ACL? Oh, Joe? What kind of injuries are you coming off of? ACL or yeah, see, you know, you know how they treat you especially at especially at the receiver and a skilled position You know how they treat you becoming off Achilles or ACL You know, they feel you're not gonna be the same They truly do They truly do. Uh, okay, fresh off his new contract, Max Crosby says he hopes Aaron Rodgers plays for Las Vegas this upcoming season. Let's take a listen to what he had to say.

Okay. But it's, the first year off on the Achilles is one of the hardest things to do. You've seen it happen with Kirk. Kirk had a down year. It happened with Aaron. I mean, he struggled, like you said, early on, but he got better as the season went. I think with all the doubt and all the negativity around Aaron Rodgers always needs to retire things like that you

know he's getting caught by the Jets I think he's gonna come back and have a I mean I know he's 42 or 41 yes he be no I think he going to have a big year this year and I hope it's in our town. That'll be all good. How come? I'm not going to let you go. See, Max listening to me. Max listening to me. Me and Max had some words not too long ago, right? Matter of fact, watching the show.

Max watched the show because I said something about the Raiders not being able to go anywhere because they didn't have a quarterback. And Max, you know, he shot me a DM and I explained to him, I say, Max you've been playing this game a very long time. I played the game a very long time too. You know, in order to contend and to compete, you already know who's in your division. You already know a quarterback you've got to see twice a year. In order to even have a chance, you have to have consistent quarterback play max. You know that now. I love you, baby. Now the reason he's shooting that shot and won

Aaron Rodgers to come because there's, there's hope that we can get the Aaron Rodgers of old. Now you won't get them consistently, but if we can get, if we can get them in a, you know, we can give them the peak and it come down a little bit, it gives us the chance and give you that feeling of hope. Now sometimes,, you know, you got kids and you tell your kids, you know Santa Claus gonna come and get them cookies Kids get excited No, there will be excitement in Las Vegas if Aaron Rodgers decide to come and plus they're going to draft a rookie quarterback Allowing them to sit by Aaron sit behind Aaron for a year maybe two depending on

how long he wants to go I think they'll be all right yeah I don't think Aaron Rogers makes the Raiders a instant contender absolutely absolutely not but it'd be better than what they've had before yeah and they just released Garner Menchu I think if I'm not Aiden O'Connell is But it'd be better than what they've had before. Yeah, and they just released Garnamentu. I think if I'm not, Aiden O'Connell is the only quarterback, I think, if I'm not mistaken, that's still currently on the roster. I think I read today that they released Garnamentu

or they're going to release Garnamentu. Right. So that'd be a great landing spot for someone. Ocho Vikings legend Jared Allen roasted the Jets at his press conference. Listen, listen what he had to say. Jared Allen. Oh, so I'd rather be close than crickin. Who sucks the Jets? Oh gosh, being a Jets would be miserable right now. I just can't believe anybody took that job. Oh, rough one. So you get to say this stuff when you're retired. You can say it every night. That's awesome. Talk about it on all your organizations because they

don't pay paychecks. That's awesome. That's funny. People don't realize, oh Joe, he started his career in Kansas City. They just remember him from the Vikings. And last year, if I'm not mistaken, I think he played with Carolina. But he originally started, he was a hell raiser in Kansas City. Ran a little guy to trouble off the field. Right.

And they traded him. Mm-hmm. But he was a heck of a player. Oh yeah, very good. A heck of a player. Remember every time he get a sack, he roped the cattle or what you call it? When they jump off the horse on the calf. Yeah.

Calf roping. Yeah, calf roping. I just love that little celebration. He was nice, he was nice. Oh, Jared Allen. Ocho, check this out. A tweet went viral this week saying jelly-filled donuts are gross.

You're just a big nasty A B if you eat this. Jam-filled donuts. Why you trippin' man? Give me a jelly donut. Do you eat jelly-filled donuts? Now you know I eat a little bit of everything. Don't do that. You know that.

I'm doing a new podcast from I Heart Podcasts and the National Hockey League. And I'm paired up with one of my favorite players, the always quotable Nate Thompson. I wore nine NHL sweaters and I have story after story to share.

And believe it or not, I have plenty to say, and not just about hockey. Believe me, he does. Energy Line with Nate and JSB is the name of the podcast, and it's going to be, well, it's going to be quite the ride. We're officially line mates, Nate. We're the Energy Line. We'll have plenty of folks join us, current players, some of my former teammates, Hall of Famers, and wait to see some of the connections that Julie has.

She has quite the Rolodex. Okay. We'll lean into Nate's playing experience and tap into our interests away from hockey and try to do what Energy Lines are supposed to do, provide an emotional boost. How do you feel about all that, Nate? I'm vibing, Julie. I'm ready to roll. Listen to Energy Line with Nate and JSB on the iHeartRadio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. There was a moment that should have broken me, but just because of how I was raised and

my bullishness and arrogance to want to be great hardened me. It gave me a platform to be so singularly focused on greatness. We all have moments like this. Something happens that's supposed to break us. But it's in these moments that we discover what we're really made of. I promise you, if anyone knows this, it's me. I'm Ashlyn Harris.

My name is Brendan Patrick Hughes, host of Divine Intervention. This is a story about radical nuns in combat boots and wild haired priests trading blows with J. Edgar Hoover in a hell-bent effort to sabotage a war. J. Edgar Hoover was furious somebody violated the FBI and he wanted to bring the Catholic left to its knees. The FBI went around to all their neighbors and said to them,

do you think these people are good Americans? It's got heists, tragedy, a trial of the century, and the god-damnedest love story you've ever heard. I picked up the phone and my thought was, this is the most important phone call I'll ever make in my life. I couldn't believe it. I mean, Brendan, it was divine intervention. Listen to Divine Intervention starting on March 11th on the iHeartRadio app, Apple podcasts,

So again, thanks for the hospitality. Now it's time for our last segment of the evening.

It's time for Q&A. I got a signed bottle from you today in Houston. Are you ever going to do a memorabilia autograph session? I heard pros have deals with companies that allow them to do autographs with them. I'm thinking about doing something. Um, maybe I think in Chantilly, Virginia in April, um, Chantilly since Chantilly, Virginia. Yeah.

Since my brother got into the hall. Uh, uh, uh, and so I'm thinking about something. I think I did something last year or a year ago. Normally I only decide to do autographs, appearances like every seven years. But since my brother going in and they ask, I say, if y'all got something for him, I'll come. So.

That's dope, that's live. Darkborn said, Uncle Don't You Love seeing y'all on first take, I never miss a show. What do you think about the Charger releasing Joey Bosa tonight? I never thought he would not be a Charger. I was gonna have to, the only reason you don't get cut, you retire before they cut you.

Yep. Other than that. Everybody. Everybody, it's gonna happen to everybody. But you see the injuries, the play has started to decline a little and the injury that started to mount. And when you're making that kind of money, it doesn't add up. So I'm not surprised that this was the outcome.

Kevin says, any chance Los Angeles gets a bonus on marketing in the off season? And I'll bet a ball of shade My calves go further since Ocho won't come out that I don't see him getting marketing because he's a max player so bonus. I don't see that even Luca really wants a lob threat He wants somebody that when he goes down he could throw it up like he could delight lively, like he could to Daniel Gaffer, like that's why they kind of really wanted Mark Williams because before he flunked the physical, that was the guy when Luca gets down there and you think he'd go and he throw it and

boom, that's really what they need. They got plenty of scoring, um, with LeBron and, and Luca and AR. Um, but no, I don't think there's a chance to get some bonus or market. People didn't think there was a chance they could end up with Luca really don't put anything past the Lakers at this point in time. Isaiah Lancaster was good. Uncle Nocho. Oh, are you, uh, are your five greatest Lakers,

and what's Ricky, who are your five greatest Lakers, and what's Ricky Pearsall's ceiling, you guys think? Greatest Lakers, Magic Kareem Kobe. Ooh, that's hardwood shack and Jerry with Jerry with You leaving willed off huh? Damn po will Elgin Baylor James worthy Sorry, the bar green No, AC and in that category Yeah, Kareem Kobe magic are the easy choices. This

then it gets hard. I think you have to push back up there. Three championships, three finals, MVP's an MVP. Yeah, I I go. I go Jerry. I go Jerry West. The only man to win finals MVP on a losing effort. Kemper knows what juniors say. Oh, my question is who is the goal when it comes to race car driving for me is Dale Earnhardt Jr. Probably the king Richard Petty.

Richard Petty. 200 victories, seven Daytona 500s. You can make a case for Dale Earnhardt Sr. He has seven Winston Cup titles, not as many, cut short obviously that tragic accident that claimed his life at Daytona. I like Kale Yarborough. Who else you think? Oh Jimmy Johnson. You can put Jimmy Johnson in it. The low 48 car. Darryl Waltrip.

Definitely needs to be mentioned. Buddy Baker. Bobby Allison. But for me, it's probably the king, Richard Patty. But I think you could make, I definitely think you could make a case for Jimmy Johnson. I definitely think you could make a case for Dale Earnhardt Jr.

Not Dale Earnhardt Jr., Dale Earnhardt Senior, Jeff Gordon. Yeah, I think those for me, the Silver Fox, Sterling, I had Gad, Austin Bill from Dawson Bill. I don't think those guys want enough. Fireball Roberts, nah, that's my list. All right, here in DK, one side of Seattle hurts, but why does he feel like this always gonna be a case with him?

It's okay that we got a dog in Gino and JSC here. Guys want your money, man. Yeah, that's it. It's all to come down to. And if they can't get it, they ain't go wherever they got to to get it. Yeah, somebody gonna pay him. Frank Tank921, Ocho, I love your style when you step out.

What's your top three clothing stores on a budget? Oh, that's easy. Target, you could really throw something together. Target, H&M, Zara, Express Men, and probably Urban Outfitters. My suits, from Zara, Express Men, I get them tailored. And once you get them tailored to fit, it makes it look as if it's something expensive

when it's really not. Just, once you get it tailored to fit and makes it look as if it's something expensive when it's really not. Just, you know, once you get a tailor to fit your body, your style, that's pretty much it, you know? Now every so often, you know, this year I'm treating myself and I'm turning it up a little bit in the fashion, in the fashion area, so when this year is over, I'm right back to my old ways. Rahan Nagash says, hey Uncle Nocho what advice would you give someone battling

addiction? Well what kind of addiction? We need better context. I need specifics so I can tell you exactly what you need to do based on whatever the addiction is. Well, normally addiction is a chemical imbalance that you feel you gotta have it and the urge to have it is far greater than the urge you stand away from it. Yeah. I think, you know, people say, Shannon, you're addicted to work because it's hard for me to turn my mind off. It's hard for me to sit still. It's hard for me to go on vacation off. It's hard for me to sit still. It's hard for me to go on vacation.

There's a reason I haven't taken one in 30 years. I just can't rest my mind. It's hard for me to sleep peaceful at night because I'm constantly thinking about who am I going to interview next? Um, how do we make nightcap better? How do I get better at first take? How do we, who, who is the guess that that my listening and viewing audience want to hear? Right. It's just, it's just

the cost. It's, it's the constant of trying to get better and not being satisfied. Um, so I can just imagine, um, I'm very thankful I don't have a, uh, a dependency drugs, alcohol, gambling, whatever the case may be. Um, it's hard. It's hard because a lot of times we create this, we create our demons and only we can chase them away. Um, cause in order for you to, you know, have a drug addiction, you had to have tried it at some point in time. Yeah. You have a gambling addiction.

You had to bet at some point in time. So whatever the shopping, whatever the case may be, that's what the saying says that we create those demons and we have to chase them away. Um, and I, it's hard. I ain't going to you, cause you know, me trying to just take one day off, I'm still calling even days that we don't work, I'm calling CJ, well CJ, what do you think about this? Who are the bookers come up with? What's on the list? They got a meeting tomorrow,

the book has got to come with 10 lists of guests, that potentially that we think would be good on Club Che Che. Right. Um, I'm calling Ash. Okay. Ash, what, what, what, what new segment? What can we do?

How do we get better at what we do? CJ, how can we get better? You know, we added the, uh, the musical performance to kind of make it like Arsenio Hall. I really love what Arsenio Hall did. So it's just for me and I understand. And maybe I am addicted to work because everybody tells me,

they say that's your addiction, work. That's what gets you excited. Nothing gets you excited like work, like nightcap, club shay-shay, first take. Nothing gets you that excited. Nothing gets you excited like that. Well, I found what I'm passionate. I found my passion.

That's what I'm passionate about. This is what makes me jump out of bed every day. Okay. This is what makes me limp out of bed every day. Hehehe. Did I freeze? Nah, I'm right here. Oh, blessed assurance says please wish my mom, Linda Miller, happy 75th birthday.

Happy 75th birthday, Linda. Happy 75th. Hopefully you did something fun. You got to take it out to a nice dinner. I've got some nice gifts. Kids, grandkids. But happy birthday, Linda. Sir Kate's. What's up guys?

My question is why does Shador get so much bad rap? He's doing it being himself. We got to start something. Every draft every year is always one player. It's always one player. And the easy target this year, it just happens to be Shadoor. And I told y'all this, you didn't have, you couldn't find a flaw with his father. So I'm gonna take it out on his son.

Yeah. What are they going to say? I mean, so what was your argument with Deion? He's just the greatest that played his position. One of the top defensive players to ever play the game. And he went on baseball field and he was good at that. So damn, we ain't have nothing to say to him. First Ballot Hall of Famer, probably could have been a first Ballot Hall of Famer in

baseball had he devoted all of his time to that. Yeah. Well, couldn't pick on him. Let's get his son. I mean, it may seem like Shadour wasn't the only one that didn't throw at the combine. There are a lot of people that didn't do anything at the combine but take the physical and do the interviews. But who do we talk about? Oh, Shiloh ain't get invited to the combine.

Like he's the only player that's ever gone to the NFL that didn't get invited to the combine. Right. Every week, cause it's gonna click. You got the last name, Sanders. Every time. They come with the territory. And the funny thing about it, he's used to it.

He's been dealing with it since high school. He's been dealing with it at Jackson State. He dealt with it at Colorado. Now he's dealing with it before the draft. He's going to be fine. And he's built for it because he's been dealing with it so long, and he has the right person on his side. That's all he knows.

To help him deal with it. Madeline said, do you put sugar in your spaghetti? Oh, spaghetti? No. Hell no. Not in spaghetti. I'm trying to think when the last time I had some damn spaghetti. Hold on.

Let me think. No, I ain't had no spaghetti in probably 10, 15 years, maybe longer. I don't eat spaghetti like that. Right. I'm trying to think, lasagna? Oh, I think I might have had some lasagna on the plane. But spaghetti, I haven't had spaghetti,

oh Joe, I used to love spaghetti, man. But my grandma used to get paid on Friday. Yeah. And, hey. She wasn't having that spaghetti? Man, Chef Boyardee, right out of the can. Put it in the pot to warm it up. Oh, okay.

All right, man, I remember them days. Hey, listen, Chef Boyardee, I had rap number ravioli. Yeah, we ain't get no ravioli. Ojo, just don't put your spaghetti on rice. Nah, nah, we ain't do that. Oh, damn, that was a ravioli. Oh, you don't put your spaghetti on rice No, no, we do that. Oh, yeah, that was just uh, we were really poor Hey, we're all the way to the end that You were right spaghetti on rice. Yeah, I ain't never did that one Hey, I'm gonna say boy boy, you better get something to stick to your ribs.

Hey, rice and bread, you'll get rice and bread with every meal after the breakfast. I mean, yeah, after the breakfast, you'll get rice and bread now, Ocho. Right. Damn, I ain't know that we was the only one. Chad, I'm the only one that did that. Oh, my bad, damn.

Don't tell nobody, Chad, that was between us. So don't be sad, man. Man, Aunt had put a spaghetti on this rice. I probably should have kept that to myself. I ain't telling y'all issues. Y'all be trying to clown me, man. Y'all be trying to clown me, man. Y'all be trying to make me feel bad. This concludes this edition of Nightcap,
