Starting point is 00:02:42 To Hershey Walker trade in 1989 Today Jerry did it again You could say those picks got us key players But the main thing is that Hershey Walker Trade did It caused me to be more aggressive And caused us If you will take more risk
Starting point is 00:02:54 Because we had more picks Hey Hey Jerry Jerry And sting y'all man They're going to stir it up every time, man. He was, Ojo?
Starting point is 00:03:09 He was. He was. He was. He was. He'll stir it up every time. My control, sacrifice one of the best defensive players in 2026 for a first round pick and a 2027, second round pick, and a defensive tackle, Katie Clark.
Starting point is 00:03:20 For Walker, he had 1,000-yard performance in three NFL seasons. The Cowboys are words with three first-round picks, three second-round picks, a third-round pick, and a six-round pick. How is that comparable? Yeah. Now, if they had traded for it. if that was Barry Sanders, okay, sure. Hershey Walker was not one of the best
Starting point is 00:03:41 offensive players. He was the best player Dallas had, but he was not one of the best players in the league. Because you do realize, like, Jerry was in the league at that time, right? Joe Montana was in the league. Bruce Smith was in the league. Reggie White was in the league. All those guys were in the league. I mean, at the running back position, wasn't Hershey Walker that boy? Barry was that, Christian Acoyer was that boy.
Starting point is 00:04:08 Barron Sanders was that boy. Thurmond Thomas was that boy. He had one thousand yard season, Ocho. Like I said, he was the best. He was the only thing they, the cowboys could trade. Do you realize what the cowboys got for Herschel? Three first round picks, three second round picks, a third round pick and a sixth round pick. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:30 Hey, who would, who would get there right now in today's game? Those exact numbers. Prior to the injury, probably the Mahomes. He's the only one, too. Three first round picks? Game different. Three. Game ain't.
Starting point is 00:04:57 Man, look here. There was some, like I said, he was the best player, Dallas had. He was the only thing that Dallas could trade. Right. The only thing of value that they had. For that matter. Micah, for me, I think Michael was a top five defensive a player.
Starting point is 00:05:15 Yeah. So I don't think it's the same. Jerry's going to make it seem to, maybe Jerry, that's wish for thinking. And all it has to do is Jerry said, if I win a Super Bowl, that's all that matters. That's it. That's all the matter.
Starting point is 00:05:35 And he just wanted him another Super Bowl before he go up. He does. That's all he wants. That's all he wants. And you know, it seems like, like the father, the more time, pass between you and the one that you just
Starting point is 00:05:51 want, the one that you won? You're like, damn, it's going to happen? Am I going to win another Super Bowl? Or, because think about it. Jerry brought the team in 89. By 95, they had three. Right. Damn. By 95, they had three.
Starting point is 00:06:14 So, you know what happens when you have that kind of success so early, Ocho and Joe. You're saying, this is bad, this. Hey, like, Ha, Ha, Davis said, It is about to be a breeze. Breeze. Oh, no. Listen, it was a breeze when you had that kind of college you had. And you had that kind of coach that could drive them.
Starting point is 00:06:34 That too, until the rest of the league caught up. If you, if you, if you, if you, Kansas City and you came to Kansas City from 2019 to 2024, all you know is going to the Subo. That's it. You're like, man, this thing, man, people talk about soup going to the Subbo Hall. man, we go there every year. It's normal. It ain't normal.
Starting point is 00:07:00 There's nothing about getting to the championship in your sport and doing it consistently. There's nothing normal about that. You might think it's normal. I'm saying, but when you're making it consecutively like that, you feel like that's normal. You do. I mean, every year you feel like you're going to get back to that point.
Starting point is 00:07:18 And hell, then it may become a point here. You don't see that for the rest of your damn career. That's a possibility. You know what I mean? That's how... Look at Buffalo. Your point is, Buffalo Bills. 90, 91, 92, 93.
Starting point is 00:07:32 Yeah. And never got back. Damn. Both times. And every loss was a kick. No, the first one was a Miss Killed Gold. They lost the Giants. That was the closest.
Starting point is 00:07:45 After that, they got the doors blowed off of them. They got two out. The last one was close in Atlanta when they lost the Buffalo. When they lost the Buffalo, When they lost the Buffalo in 92, out there at the Rose Bowl, that was the first Super Bowl that actually went to.
Starting point is 00:08:01 Man, they got the break, got the break drum beat off of them. They did. That was with, remember with Leon Lett, they was about to put a 50 piece on them. When Leon Lett put the ball down and Steve Tasker knocked it out of his hand
Starting point is 00:08:16 and he rolled out of the end zone. Yeah. Don Bebebe right? No. Tass. Bebe, Bibi. Oh, okay, okay. I remember that.
Starting point is 00:08:27 Y'all remember when Don Bibi took up, you know, Don Bibi ran four, three. Oh, yeah, yeah. Remember, Don Bibi used to wear the extra, that's Steve Tasker. That was Tasker. That was Tasker. No, that Steve, that was Mark Kelso.
Starting point is 00:08:43 Steve Tasker was the, with the special teams maven. You told about the one that had that big, he had that, uh, that, uh, that. And he had an extra, he had the concussions cap way back when. Now is Mark Kelso. I played against him,
Starting point is 00:08:59 Oh, Joe. Okay. Yeah. Okay, okay, okay. And that's throwback. Yeah. But, uh, look, Jerry made the trade.
Starting point is 00:09:08 And see, this is what caused attention. Jerry said he made the trade. What did Jimmy say? Jimmy said he made the trade. You see how it sees, you see? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:27 Everybody wants, everybody won't credit. Um, look, it worked out for the Cowboys, but it doesn't matter how many draft picks you got. Jimmy know who to got, who to draft? That was the problem. It ain't the draft picks.
Starting point is 00:09:45 Everybody, for the most part, unless you trade it away, guess what? Everybody got a first round pick. Who do you draft? Because you might take a guy, and then a guy that goes in the second round, could have been your first round pick, and boom, look what you got.
Starting point is 00:10:02 Thanks. and most of the time your first round I don't know what percentage Uncle Joe and this goes for basketball too what percentage of your first round is most of the time
Starting point is 00:10:12 they don't pan out either damn first round it's a high percentage on that yeah because you got to realize Joe when you're a first round pick within the first three years you're supposed to look the high you go up
Starting point is 00:10:24 you're supposed to be transformational so now your first three years you need to be a pro bowl you need to be an all pro bowl you need to be an all-pro, you need to be that level of a player. Even if your team is bad, you got to be the one exception
Starting point is 00:10:40 that makes my team that much better. That is correct. That is absolutely correct. And it doesn't always work out like that. So with that being said, but the Micah, Jay had it out for Michael once, you know, Jay felt that he reneged, it was over.
Starting point is 00:11:00 They weren't going to see eye to eye, on that Joe. And Jared, Jared, with them old handshake guys. You shake Jerry's hand on something. You better come through.
Starting point is 00:11:12 You better, you better, you better come through with it. Hey, Jerry tried to swindle that young man. Even swap ain't no swindle.
Starting point is 00:11:20 Jared said, even swap ain't no swindle. Michael said, I was shaking your hand thanking you for having, you know, for meeting me, you know,
Starting point is 00:11:28 for having a conversation with me. Jerry said, nah, you were shaking my hand, we had a deal done. No, it don't work like that, fellas. No, not, you know, an owner, and especially with the games that they play and know how to play, especially contractually,
Starting point is 00:11:47 it's a good thing. It's a great thing that players have agents. You need reputation. Boy, if you really saw how owners feel about you, if you was ever in those negotiating rooms, and they low ball you every time but you never know, but your agent know. I wish players would do that, do it one time,
Starting point is 00:12:08 especially the elite players. Elite players, go back to each age, what they really say about you behind closed doors. That's why you have an agent because I don't want to hear that. Right. I don't want to know. Just go and give me my money
Starting point is 00:12:24 and let me think that you think that much, do you think that much of me? I mean, it's a reason that. They have everybody waiting, I'm the joke. What's that? Is it really? Only player, well,
Starting point is 00:12:38 what is going on right now in Tampa Bay, this is one of the first time, a few times I've seen a quarterback actually publicly. This player's always, with the card train? First time. I ain't seen this in a long time. Because they normally get their money.
Starting point is 00:12:54 Long time. Always. Always. The one person you want to happen, you don't want to scrundle, is your quarterback. That's the one person. Receivers or you can wait? You ain't got nothing to do.
Starting point is 00:13:06 Where are you going? Pigs said, that's all right. I'm having me another 1,500-yard season. Have me another 85, 90 catches. He's going to get gwopped down by the Cowboys. No, not the Cowboys. It's over for you, Joe. Y'all some hate them.
Starting point is 00:13:28 It ain't over for me, boy. It's just getting started here. What do you mean? Yeah. You happen now. You'll be sad later. No, no, I don't know. I know who's going to be sad,
Starting point is 00:13:39 but I ain't going to say no name. I ain't going to call nobody. Damn, Ojo. Who? Don't take your time. Yeah, I'm going to say me. Talk about you. You saw my team on full display today.
Starting point is 00:13:52 Hey, boy, I know you ain't for the youth preseasoned. I know your quarterback got sacked for the first drive. Your quarterback going to get sack, too. Hey, hey, now what y'all going to do is tomorrow. before we get on here, y'all going to watch some real football. Y'all will see some boys out there really clowning tomorrow, okay? There he go. There he go.
Starting point is 00:14:16 There he go. Acting like he don't know what going on. But the Bengals played yesterday, boy. Boy, that's old news, partner. Oh, the Dolphins played. Man, there's nobody talking about the Guppies. Man, you don't dare well. They all ain't got no football teeth. Gumpy ain't nothing but feed the fish.
Starting point is 00:14:32 It's okay. People feed Guppies your bigger fish. Man, stop there, don't you? We are in the rebuilding. Take your shots now. Take all your shots you want to now. We'll be back. Hey, hey, y'all trying to drive buddy
Starting point is 00:14:44 from OSU, uh, from Ohio State. The, what, Jeremiah Smith? Oh. Yeah. Hey, he's from them. And he from Miami? Yeah, he went to Chauvinae.
Starting point is 00:14:55 Yeah. He's right, right, right, right, right, right. Yeah. That's hard, though, uh, because he would have to, he would have to go number, they definitely taking a quarterback. Either Dante Moore or already. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:07 Oh, if they get, if Miami get the first pick, they probably take it, what you call him, um, Arch Manning. How? You just play me, even if Malik Willis playing his butt on. Nah,
Starting point is 00:15:23 they don't make a sense. I ain't going. I ain't going. Nah, they're going to be the only game of three-year-old. Jeremiah Smith. You don't, you don't pay, you know, no, no.
Starting point is 00:15:37 No. So you say, you'll take Jeremiah Smith over Arch Manning. Okay. Yes. Well, we're going to find... I wonder what the chat thing.
Starting point is 00:15:47 Chat, what you think, chat? What you think, Chad? We'll find out. Well, first of all, y'all might get the first, y'all might get the first pick, because y'all go to be that bad. It's going to be a long season. Don't do that.
Starting point is 00:16:03 You know, Ocho, you know, y'all stay with, y'all stay with the number one pick. That's just, that's crazy. Y'all. Nah, Cleland. Cleveland, notorious first thing. He didn't stay with
Starting point is 00:16:16 him. Yeah, and basketball too, yeah. For sure. Wiggins, Bennett, Karee,
Starting point is 00:16:24 LeBron. Who else? Hey, don't sleep on what you call to me? The San Antonio. What about it?
Starting point is 00:16:35 They got the first peak too. David Robinson, Kim Duncan, Wimby. No, yeah. Yeah, I'm right.
Starting point is 00:16:45 But Cleveland, Cleveland, they stay with that number one pick. Ew. Oh, Brad, Dardy.
Starting point is 00:16:53 Oh, for clear. He wouldn't want, yeah. Yeah, you were number one. You know, you go way back to the 60s. Hell, I wouldn't even thought of in 6 and 70. I can't keep up something time. Yeah. There's no shortcut for saving time, but saving money is simple.

We host the podcast, Hollywood Handbook, on the Big Money Players Network. Our show is extremely accessible to first-time listeners.

Starting point is 00:17:33 their careers and see what they have to offer us. Everyone has a good time, and no one gets mad at their publicists for letting them do our show. We've had a lot of great guests like Sarah Sherman, not that great. Actually, can you help me shape this? How about we flip it on his head, right? How about we flip the script? What is the surprised woman?
Starting point is 00:17:52 who actually you think is the straight man is actually the one who's acting weird. Adam Scott, this entire time you've been expecting Adam Sandler to come to visit the show. I would never expect, I would never set expectations for something like that to happen. If the universe allows for something like that to happen, I'm open to it. I'm always going to accept. You know, Danny McBride, fine. Yeah, it's all this fragile masculinity exuding. I could smell it walking down the hallway, to be honest with you.
Starting point is 00:18:27 I was like, I was like, is that weed? Nope, it's fragile masculinity. Ben Stiller, no. Because a lot of times out of context, people don't get it, or even know what a circle is. You know what I mean? They're like, oh, it's so stupid. Everyone's so dumb except for you.
Starting point is 00:18:44 And fake. Right, fake and also not interested or just like, oh, I've got my life, I don't care about your life. care about your life. And a lot of other big shots that wouldn't be where they are without us. Oh, and by the way, Will Ferrell told us personally he loves the show and he wants to be a guest on every episode, but he's

So this podcast lets us uncover those things together through meaningful conversations with fascinating people. Like when my friend Henry Winkler offered advice to aspiring actors. and really anybody hoping to stand out. You're not hired just to fill time and space.
Starting point is 00:20:26 You're hired to fill the space with you. You have something in your guts. You go with it. And Sean Johnson recalled the moment she realized her now husband, Andrew, was the one. He was just so unapologetically himself and knew nothing of Hollywood. He hadn't been on a plane before without his family.
Starting point is 00:20:46 It was so pure. Listen to Joy 101 with Hoda Kotby on the Iheart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Our town is small taters by most standards, right? But to the people who grew up here, it's everything. What happens when a quiet Tennessee town becomes the front line in a battle over the future of America? Developers with right-wing ties have purchased hundreds of acres of land in the area. The first thing you see when it pops up is pioneers in Appalachia. But they weren't just planning houses.
Starting point is 00:21:21 We need cities on a shining hill that exemplify and embody the Christian way of life. Stop right there. Is that normal? A podcast about what happens when a small town becomes the site of a social experiment. God need men to rule. Great. And decides to fight back. Do not use my hard work to sell your bull. They're not just opposing what's being planned for here. Our hometown is not a test tube.
Starting point is 00:21:49 feel like they're standing in opposition to an entire administration. Guess you didn't move in on a bunch of dumb hillbillies now, did you? Listen to Our Town on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Smith Sr. says Shadour Sanders has been getting less plays than Deshaun as he's slower to get the plays going. Smith says, I've heard that sometimes Shadour not running the same amount of plays because he gets to play in faster. He has to get the guys lined up. he's a little bit slower on that. Ocho?
Starting point is 00:22:29 Go send it to you first. What you thinking? Did that make sense? I mean, listen, when it comes to Smitty, I mean, his credibility, you know,
Starting point is 00:22:38 and with the people that he does, know inside organizations, not just the Panthers in general. So there's probably some truth to it in, you know, in general, but that's something that's fixable. That's something that can be corrected.
Starting point is 00:22:48 Obviously, that's the point of having practice, you know? You need to get the plays in, being able to call them fast. to being able to make sure everybody's set up right before you go through your cadence, before you go through reading your progression of your defense, you know, making your points and whatever you need to do as a quarterback, once you get to the line of scrimmage, just tell you all it is is telling the quarterback, listen, we need to speed up a little bit.
Starting point is 00:23:10 Obviously, the 24 o'clock, they have the 24 o'clock running in practice to kind of gauge where you are when the players are coming in. Obviously, and it's also one of the off of the coordinator, be able to get the plays in fast enough. Yeah, that's my boy. Yeah, all of that collectively is it intertwined between coach and player and not just Shador. Joe. And maybe that's a development stage for young fellow Shadour.
Starting point is 00:23:38 You know, maybe it's just something he has to kind of experience and go through. I think he'll get better, you know, as the season goes on or as his reps increase, Uncle Ocho. You know what I mean? You don't know to his space this young man is in considering the fact that he's coming out and competing day in and day out against Deshaun to try and see who's going to end up being a starting quarterback. But I don't, I mean, I don't make, I don't see no big deal in it.
Starting point is 00:24:05 But I'm like you, Ocho, I take what Steve Smith says, you know, it's respectable. Yeah, it's, it's tough. He's still a young quarterback. Yeah. Trying to figure this thing out, trying to be, trying to be perfect. And the thing is, it's like most quarterbacks, they feel that. they can go in there and play the game, be free. He knows he can't make mistakes.
Starting point is 00:24:27 It's hard playing like that. It's hard. It's hard when you're under man and you know if you make a mistake, Ocho, that might be the difference in Joe. That might be the difference in you. Hell, you might not see the field again. Thanks. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:42 Thanks. But. And that's, that's a tough position to be in. You definitely got to get the plays in because that clock. starts. And if they slow getting the ball in, you was like, if you notice like, my homes, as soon as soon as somebody get tackled, he
Starting point is 00:25:03 over there doing this right here. Come on, give it to me. Now, damn. Hey, he won. Hey, Joe, he's on. The place still going on. He's like this. Yes. Give me the next. Yes. Yes. Yes. Because it gives him time.
Starting point is 00:25:19 He gives him time to see everything in front of him. He's not rushing. You're not rushing. You're not rushing. So anytime a quarterback can get that opposite line up early and you got 15 seconds on the clock, that gives you plenty of time to assess what you need to, not only offensively making sure everybody's in the right place,
Starting point is 00:25:35 but also see that doing defensively. Any audibles that I might need to make, any adjustments that I need to make, I can make those in a timely manner. Because the last thing I want to be doing, I'm getting to the line of scrimmage with 10. And now by the time I get set up, I send the guy in motion.
Starting point is 00:25:50 I might want to make an adjustment. I can't make a damn adjustment because you didn't get the bottom. play in till 15 seconds. By the time I got it and called it and we broke the hurdle, it's 9, 10 seconds. By the time we got to the line, it's 7, 6, 6, 7 seconds.
Starting point is 00:26:04 And now you want me to go through Blue 17, Blue 17. Go on in motion. Time out. What happened? You still slow ass took too long to get the damn playing. That's what happened.
Starting point is 00:26:18 You told me, hey, hustle up. Hustle up. Hustle to the line. Hustle to the line. But because of the officer coordinator, basically, you don't really get a chance to enjoy the game, you don't really get a chance to enjoy the game, won't you? You call to see what they are. You got to be in your call sheet to see what it is.
Starting point is 00:26:34 Hey, and somebody feed you. What down is it? Second and five, second and five, second and five. Now you're going to the second and five call sheet. Okay. Yeah. Red right, red right, Z short, two jet flaker driver. Red right, two jet,
Starting point is 00:26:56 Z short, two jet flagger drive. One more. Ready? Break. What down is? What down is it? It's close. Is it the first?
Starting point is 00:27:02 Is it the first? Damn it. Hey, that's just that they beat too. What do you mean? You think? Is that a fumble? Should we challenge it? They got a hundred things going on.
Starting point is 00:27:23 So it's not easy. Quarterback just think they just call the play. But they try to get everything situated. They try to, hey, what's the down? Hey, can we get a measurement? No. Man, come on. We get a measurement.
Starting point is 00:27:32 That's close. That's close. That's a first down. But I'm just trying, I'm just trying to get a motion to stop. Try to get them stop the clock. I know there ain't no damn first down. That ball a damn foot show. My favorite story of the joke is when I was in New England,
Starting point is 00:27:50 and another reason I got a better understanding on why they win so much, why they're so consistent year in and year out is when it comes to practice, everything was perfect. everything was perfect and you had to go consecutive plays without messing up or you'd be starting over
Starting point is 00:28:08 not practice in general but that specific period you know period 10 12 plays yeah 10 12 they got to be perfect well I remember one time I'm not going to tell a whole story
Starting point is 00:28:20 but I'm just going to tell a little bit of and I think I told it before but Bill O'Brien his mic wasn't working to call to get the player just like we saw right now in time And Tom, I can't hear.
Starting point is 00:28:34 Give me the play again. And Bill said to play, I mean, not Bill. Bill O'Brien said to play again. And Tom looked again and said, give me the goddamn play. And boy, Bill O'Brien, man, I gave you the effing play already. Well, I didn't ever get it. And boy, hey, on the joke,
Starting point is 00:28:52 what ain't him and Tom going back and forth? I'm like, wait a minute. You're going to intervene anytime, Coach Belichick? No, they'll figure it out. Hey And Belichick got his whistle around his finger Doing like this I'm like
Starting point is 00:29:08 Okay This is normal We started a period over They got the mic working We went through all 12 plays And every last one right Hey man That was that was
Starting point is 00:29:20 You don't I didn't see anything like that No no Hey Ojo This is Tom Brady They demand greatness on Ocho And Joe But them people over there That's how they
Starting point is 00:29:30 I was in Denver, Joe. Alex Gil, like, get in the effing huddle. I'm like, hold on. Why are you telling T.D., cut back. I was like, T, T.D., why are you listening to him? He ain't run no running back? Shut the F up, 84. How you're going to tell T, he's just the best running back in the game,
Starting point is 00:29:52 and you're telling him what he should have done? Man, get your own last out of this huddle. Did he threaten me with 16 power? Because that's the only way to get me 16 pounds, especially against the overfront. That means I got to block that big-ass defensive end by myself. Hey, hey. You let me, hey, that's a 16th power?
Starting point is 00:30:15 I call House. Hey, House, come get this one right here. My knee a little sore. My knee a little sore. Hey, hey, say they need money to be. Yeah, yeah, that need a little sore and 16 power. That ain't. That big deal, yeah, but I ain't fooling with that bad.
Starting point is 00:30:30 Oh, boy. It was so many good stories. Yeah. Harold Fannie Jr. had high praise for Brown's rookie Denzel Boston and Casey Concepcion. You could definitely tell night and day difference in the weapons. You can tell that them boys are special. Honestly, it makes me work even harder because you get to watch them work so hard. Just kind of building off each other off rip Casey Concepcion and Denzel Boston are some go geters. They go get, they go and get it done. They go out there. execute. You can talk about Denzel in my mind.
Starting point is 00:31:03 He has the highest ceiling. I'm watching him and I'm like, that guy is somebody special. Casey, too. I didn't know how he was that fast. He can move. He can jump too. Great ball tracking skills. Ocho, remember we had Casey on, a guy that has worked his way through a speech impediment. Joe, we had him on last year.
Starting point is 00:31:22 He had a speech impediment. And we finally got him to open up. We started making some jokes and he was having a good time. But, hey, we watched him at Texas A&M. we got an opportunity to see them a couple of times because obviously Texas A&A was a good team. They were on a lot. We also had Johnny Mansell. But that's high praise, the two rookies.
Starting point is 00:31:39 And that's what you got to have. You got to have guys that can go get it done. Because for so long, they've been ineffective than that area, Ocho. They need, they need play. You got to have playmakers out there. All that other stuff. I know you got to have, but you got to got guys that you can put the ball up and they go make plays.
Starting point is 00:31:55 Put the ball in his hands and let me go make a difference. Let me be a difference maker. Yeah, and I think the last time the Cleveland Browns had a difference make it was I don't know what he was. I don't know what year that was Joe you ever seen Josh Gordon play Joe? Yes, yes. Oh my God. He was special.
Starting point is 00:32:13 Boy, he was amazing way. He was special. Hey, I like the fact that he said those young guys make him work harder, bro. You know, when you got good talent, guys who come in ready to work, ready to prove themselves, man, they can rub off on guys that you never would even imagine. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:32:28 So for him saying, like, to see them guys how hard they work and how fast they are. It makes me work harder. I enjoy hearing stuff like that because a rookie can motivate a guy who's already been in the league or a bestian guy that's been in the league. So it's good to do that. Yeah, I like Harold Fannie Jr.'s game.
Starting point is 00:32:44 I think he has the potential to be really, really, really special. I think he can be really, really, really good. He has that kind of game. And he shows some promise lines. Yeah, yeah, yeah, can run, can high point to football, great runner. You know, great transition.
Starting point is 00:32:57 Can get in and out of breaks. That's what I look for. as a tight end. How seamlessly does he get in and out of breaks? How well does he transition? All the other stuff, I can teach you that other stuff. I can teach you, you know, the concentration and catch the football. But if you can't get ended out of breaks, if you choppy, if you tip it routes off.
Starting point is 00:33:17 Hey, do y'all think that's why they let, what's his name, Injoku? Is that why that why he let him go? Yeah. He was injured a lot. He got to be, you know, because they don't let you go unless they know the person behind you is going to be able to fill a position and give you that same. production or even more. And that goddamn fan was nice, boy.
Starting point is 00:33:34 Oh, yeah. But it came to the Cleveland Browns, outside of the Shador being a bright spot that everybody wanted to watch. He was a bright spot when it came in production and making a playoff weekend and week out until he got. And he's probably a whole hell of a lot cheaper too. Yeah, for sure.
Starting point is 00:33:49 On the rookie contract, look, the rookies that Cleveland had, they played really well. Remember the linebacker was defensive player, defensive rookie in the year, Ocho. Swering, I think it's Swaringer or something. Yeah. I think he was defensive rookie in the year. Harold Fannie, Jr. was unbelievable.
Starting point is 00:34:07 Shador came in, and when he got an opportunity to play, he played really well. They got, they got some guys that can hopefully make some plays. And now they got two, the drafted two more guys. They need playmakers. I don't go to who the quarterback is. You better have somebody they can throw the ball to and can make it happen. Because that's what the football is. This is about, hey, putting the ball in your playmaker's hand and let them make plays.
Starting point is 00:34:29 The sooner that I can get it to you, the better. the offer I'm going to be. Hello. Cardinal's running back, Jeremiah Love, is dealing with a high ankle sprain and it's unlikely to play again in the preseason per Adam Shepter. The team is hopeful the number three overall pick and return for the regular season opener on September 13th against the charges.
Starting point is 00:34:54 Ocho? Hey, he ain't got to worry about it. Hey, Jeremiah, love, holl at your boy, I guarantee you you'd be ready for the next game. Hey, chat, somebody. Tell Jeremiah Love about my remedy when it come to spraying ankles. And I ain't never had an issue.
Starting point is 00:35:10 I was always ready. I like your remedy by staying on the ground. I like that one better. Yeah. Oh, that's how you heard it from Hurling? I don't know how he heard it. Hey, hey, hey. It ain't going to help it if you stay up in the air.
Starting point is 00:35:25 Hey, y'all, hey, listen. Hey, y'all can say what y'all want to about that young man, but man, that young man run hard, bro. Oh, he does, Joe. Hey, look, when I came on here and I said that, he reminded me an age. Adrian Peterson, I hadn't heard there, no word, but I've been hearing people say that they... Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, slow down, slow down, Joe.
Starting point is 00:35:43 So who the hell said that? He ran hard, Ocho. Ocho, he run hard like AP, bro. I'm watching, Ocho. No, no, no, no. Hey, listen, he run hard, but no, don't know. The Adrian Peterson comparison, I ain't letting that fly. Not all of that.
Starting point is 00:35:57 Ocho, you must, I don't know what you were watching. I was watching him, Joe, but come on. We can't do that, nah. Ocho, that man, we're getting through that, bro. You see how hard that man? were running, but that ain't AB, that ain't A, that ain't. I said he showed flashes, man. I ain't said he AP.
Starting point is 00:36:13 Damn, he chose some flashes. A camera flash? Nah. Oh, man, he goes. It didn't man go. Are you kidding me? Hey, hey, slow down turbo. You didn't see... You didn't see... You didn't see that man running style
Starting point is 00:36:29 how you were hitting them gaps? I saw him, I saw him hitting them gaps. I seen him hit the A gap. I seen him on the tall sweep. I saw him on the counter. But boy, he ain't no AP. I don't know, he ain't know all day. He could go. But Adrian Peterson was different, boy.
Starting point is 00:36:43 You hear me? Hey, that man showed me. Stay with me, that, Joe. Okay, all right. All right. All right. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But, man, he showed me some flashes, Ocho, okay?
Starting point is 00:36:51 Okay, okay, okay. He showed me promise that he got a hell of a future back there. You hear me? Now, that he does have. There's a reason why it was the third pick, right? Yeah. Yeah, there's a reason why the third pick. But with the comparison to being all day,
Starting point is 00:37:05 who was one of the greatest runnerbacks to ever play this game. Ooh. That's a comparison, Ocho. You can compare players when they come into the league. Like, damn, man, he, hey, he reminded me all day, bro.
Starting point is 00:37:16 She, man, shoot, the devil is a lie. Hey, no, no, no, listen. They don't disrespect all day. Now, that boy, that was something serious, okay? Boy. And I think, hell, I think it was better after he came back off ACL. Hell, like, damn, what kind of ACL they put in this knee?
Starting point is 00:37:33 How did that man come back? How did men come back like that, bro? The A.C. Uncle Joe? Hey, that man was different. I don't know if they took part of his patella or they put a cadaver in there. Because, you know, sometimes they take cadavers and put it in the knee.
Starting point is 00:37:48 Hey, that boy hit the ground running. He now did hit the ground running. Yeah, but listen, Uncle Joe. And he would have had more. And he would have had more. Remember, he got in that little trouble for the situation with his son and he got on the commissioner's exempt list.
Starting point is 00:38:03 Right, right, right. He missed the whole season. So if we add, and that was still his prime. So if we add that, if we add another 13,400 yards to what all they got, he probably, I don't know, I think he probably 13,000 yards. He's probably at 14,000. Man. We probably look at another 10 touchdowns.
Starting point is 00:38:22 Amen. I just wish you to stay in Minnesota. Yeah. I hate that he went to the Saints and then the Saints moved on and he went to Arizona. And then he went to Washington. And then he went to Washington. I just wish you to stay. I just wish he could have stayed.
Starting point is 00:38:38 But you know, you know how they do you, especially when you play running back? You know, Emmett Smith. Huh? Yeah. You know, every great, every great, all the greats that you think and you would want to stay with one team and be a one team jersey, it just never happens. Even to the greatest runnerbacks of all time. Frank Gore, you know, he's another one. But outside of that, Chad, I need y'all to spam, brother Jeremiah, my love.
Starting point is 00:39:03 and tell him to Google my remedy and he's going to need his teammates. This is why it's called a team. There's no I am team for a reason. Tell his teammates to look at the remedy, you know, for high ankle sprains. And I guarantee you he's able to play next week. I guarantee you.
Starting point is 00:39:19 Yeah, send it to his Instagrams. It's preseason, Ocho. He ain't really worried about playing this week, man. Ocho said this is a having ready for the regular season. Yeah, yeah. He got, if he got, it ain't a... What's your remedy? What is it?
Starting point is 00:39:34 Huh? What's your remedy? Heat a urine. It's like red light therapy, but to hear you faster. Nah, that's yellow light therapy. I don't want to be. Yeah, yeah, same thing. Hey, listen, it's a home remedy.
Starting point is 00:39:48 It's a home remedy from back in the day. My grandma them used to you back in the village in Africa. And they used to warm up urine? Yeah, that's how you treat your injuries. I mean, I heard about guys in baseball peeing on the hands to tough it up their hands. Hey, see? No, I'm good.
Starting point is 00:40:05 Hold on, hold on. I seen where Ricky had, and wasn't he drinking his pee before the floor would make with Mayweather fight? Hey, hey, listen, I'm telling you. If you're stradd to the desert island, I mean, you stranded you can do that. Yeah. Drink your pee? Yeah.

Starting point is 00:40:28 Oh, Joe, what you mean? No, I say, Joe. You ain't never had nobody pee on you, Joe? And now, man, why would I have somebody do that? Let me tell you something. Hey, Uncle Joe, this is something that y'all probably don't do chat. I'm not sure. I show don't do.
Starting point is 00:40:42 Whatever you about to say come out your mouth next, I don't do it. Listen, Joe, listen, Joe, you need to try this at home. You hear me? What I need to try? Where else I'm going to try that? Let me tell you, right? Listen to me. You know, hey, Joe, remember when y'all used to getting the cold tub?
Starting point is 00:40:57 Yeah. And you contrast from the cold tub to the hot tub. Yes. And you notice how all the blood flow. it tingles and that sensation it gives you from contrasting back and forth and then you feel fresh like you never like you never ran or jump and jump in coat

My kids got me a couple of times, but I ain't fit to let no grown person. My kids got me.

Starting point is 00:43:26 I just, I just ain't, I just ain't, I ain't, listen. I'm like, oh, hell, I'll miss a few games. If I got to go through that, I miss a few, bray. Hey, hey, ain't tripping. Let it go. What you're doing?
Starting point is 00:43:37 Yeah, I'm putting you all on games. I got limits. You know, behind closed doors, a lot of things have happened behind closed doors. Right. You got to draw the line somewhere, Ocho. At some point in time, you got to make a stand. See, this is what we call crossing the Rubicon. You don't go too far.
Starting point is 00:43:56 Hey, is. You don't go too far. Hey, you know, y'all have made me take my shades off, man. You know, I'm going to take mine off with you. That ain't happening for me. Listen. Listen, Joe, Uncle Joe. It's so frustrating trying to improve y'all's life, man,
Starting point is 00:44:09 with the experience that I've had throughout the years. It's really frustrating when y'all don't listen. But you act like, how you know we ain't having tons of fun over it? I'm having tons of fun over it. I'm going to keep it wrong with that. I'm talking about old shape. Joe, listen, Joe, listen, Uncle Joe, everything I've said since the time we started show for the past three years,
Starting point is 00:44:26 y'all have said no to it. That means you're not, you having fun, but you haven't kindergarten fun. It's time to graduate. I need to get the junior high. I need you to graduate the high school. I need you to graduate the college. Let me ask you a question. Come on, man.
Starting point is 00:44:39 When you were in high school, how many PE class are you had? When I was in kindergarten, they sent us out to play three times a day. Hello. I had a time of my life. I don't know what you're talking about. Hello. Hello. You had one PE class.
Starting point is 00:44:52 I don't know. You might have had two. But most people, most people in high school only had one PE class. Amen. There's nobody tried to do all that, man. Hey, listen, listen, and this is another problem. Like, a lot of us are scared to live in our truth, unk. And Joe's one of them.
Starting point is 00:45:11 How are you going to tell me how I'm living in my truth for now? A lot of us are scared to live in our truths because we're scared of what people would think. We know we're trying to protect an image. Listen, this is me. I've always been wild. I've always been open. I've always been a social butterfly.
Starting point is 00:45:25 I've always been willing to try and do anything because I don't care what people say. I don't care what people think about me. I'm going to always move to the beat of my own. own drum. I'm like to my own beat, right? So I'm trying to, trying to tell you guys in the chat, Unk and Joe, and bring new thing to your life that you would never probably even think about, let alone even try, let alone do. So I'm just asking you to try it. Those do you in the chat, that in relationships, try it. It will help. I'm telling you, some of the toys that I brought on here,
Starting point is 00:45:52 it's all about the experience. You don't have to, I like it. You don't have to, it's all about enjoying the experience. When you go to Knathbury Farm, when you go to Disney World, when you go to the movies, it's all about an experience. It's temporary. It ain't wrong. Nobody don't know. You can listen to P-Pot if you want to. But I ain't listen to the P-Pot.
Starting point is 00:46:10 Hey, I said P-E-Claz, not P-Claz. I ain't fooling with Ocho. Hey, nobody fooling with Ocho. I definitely not. I'm not listening to Ocho. Okay. Hey, I've lived 58 years. And the Lord spent my life, I'm going to live another several years.
Starting point is 00:46:25 Yeah. But I'm not doing, I'm not listening to Ocho. Hey, hey, just try it. No, I'm not. just tried. I'm not. No, I'm not. I'm good. I'm good. Right here where I am. You know what? And see, this is, this is, this is one of the issues with us.
Starting point is 00:46:42 It's what, it's. He ain't no issue, though. Ain't no issue? It is, it is, Joe, because we, we never want to try anything new. We always want to be, we want to be stuck in a box, huh? We want to stay within our comfort zone. And, and before you look at it, what I do. Listen, but I got limits, old, Joe. We, we 80, we 80 years old with no experience and, and, and then try anything. We didn't live. You're alive between living. There's a difference.
Starting point is 00:47:05 There's a difference. Even planes. Even a mark. There's limits to everything. Oh, how fast you can go. Even if you break the sound barrier, you still can only go so fast. Even you got a car that costs $10 million.
Starting point is 00:47:18 It still can only go so fast. Hey, but the whole point is being able to reach that speed limit. Y'all ain't even trying. You mean, you, you know, you're stuck. You all stuck in the schools on, You don't want to do nothing. You don't know how fast we're going over here, man? I know how fast you go as you said no to everything I suggest.
Starting point is 00:47:39 I just ain't that. I mean, you got a lot going on, brother. I mean, you ain't. I ain't going to lie to you. Joe, it's not a lot, Joe. I'm just living. You alive, but I'm living. There's a difference.
Starting point is 00:47:50 I'm living. You know, Joe, that's what I'm trying to tell you. No, Joe, I need you to add some more seedning to your food, Joe. But it ain't spices. It's spicy over here, Joe. I don't need no more seeding. I want to taste chicken. What kind of spices you use?
Starting point is 00:48:02 I don't want to taste all that paprika and black pepper and all that. I want to taste the chicken. Yeah. Hey, I guarantee the chat grew with me. I bet people in the chat they can try it. I bet you they're going to try it after they get off. Well, listen, listen.
Starting point is 00:48:17 They're going to try it. It's a couple freaks in the chat. Now, I ain't going to be delusion to act like any couple frees in the chat. I already know what going on. Yeah. I don't know. I ain't going to never judge nobody. That's all I'm saying.
Starting point is 00:48:29 Hey, chat. Hey, chat. The chat ain't number of family. The chat ain't none of family. The chat is nothing but an extended family of us. That's all it is. Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, it's okay for them to be a little freaking in a chat.
Starting point is 00:48:41 Ain't nobody judging them, man. Yeah, that don't make y'all no bad chat. That don't make y'all no bad chat because y'all do that. I mean, if y'all want to listen to P.O. Cinco, that's okay. But I ain't, I won't know part of Pio Cico. What would you say? You don't make it no bad chat? No, that don't make y'all no bad chat.

Starting point is 00:49:25 We host the podcast Hollywood Handbook on the Big Money Players Network. Our show is extremely accessible to first-time listening. Each week we talk to someone in show business, aka the biz, and try to help them with their careers and see what they have to offer us. Everyone has a good time and no one gets mad at their publicists for letting them do our show. We've had a lot of great guests like Sarah Sherman, not that great. Actually, can you help me shape this? How about we flip it on his head, right? How about we flip the script?
Starting point is 00:49:54 What is the surprise woman who actually you think is the straight man is actually the one who's acting weird? Adam Scott, this entire time you've been expecting Adam Sandler to come to visit the show. I would never expect. I would never set expectations for something like that to happen. If the universe allows for something like that to happen, I'm open to it. I'm always going to accept. You know, Danny McBride, fine. Yeah, it's all this fragile masculinity exuding.
Starting point is 00:50:29 I could smell it walking down the hallway, to be honest with you. I was like, is that weed? Nope. It's fragile masculinity. Ben Stiller, no. Because a lot of times out of context, people don't get it or even know what a circle is. You know what I mean? They're like, oh, it's so stupid.
Starting point is 00:50:46 Everyone's so dumb. And fake. Right, fake and also not interested or just like, oh, I've got my life. I don't care about your life. And a lot of other big shots that wouldn't be where they are without us. Oh, and by the way, Will Ferrell told us personally he loves. the show and he wants to be a guest on every episode, but he's just so busy. Listen to Hollywood Handbook on the IHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your

And on my new podcast, delivering happiness with Nick Totoro, I deliver pizza from Prince Street pizza to a new guest. Are you delivering pizza now? Then we sit down for a real conversation.

Like when my friend Henry Winkler offered advice to aspiring actors and really anybody hoping to stand out. You're not hired just to fill time into space. You're hired to fill the space with you. You have something in your guts. You go with it. And Sean Johnson recalled the moment she realized her now husband, Andrew, was the one. He was just so unapologetically himself and knew nothing of Hollywood. He hadn't been on a plane before without his family. It was so pure.

Starting point is 00:57:49 We ain't worried about that part. We can put Jerry with anybody. Anybody that played opposite of Jerry Rice is a part of the greatest duo ever, whether it's J.T. John Taylor, whether it's Tim Brown, whether it's T.O. anybody able to cross from him is part of the greatest deal ever because of how great Jay was.
Starting point is 00:58:12 But I'm anxious to see this offense when you put statements out like this on Joe, you already know, like you did. When you challenge DBs, you got to go out there and back it up. Oh, yeah, that's the easy part. That's the easy part because they've been doing it all their career. Hell, they were doing it in the high school. They were doing it in college.
Starting point is 00:58:26 And they've been doing it. They haven't been voicing it out loud, which I wish more receivers would do, even though it adds a little pressure on you, but it's entertainment, it's excitement, and it forced you to have to play at a high school. level weekend and week out call them boys out tell the world tell the NFL put defenses on notice listen we the best duo in the NFL that's how I feel I'm not
Starting point is 00:58:45 really worried about the history I respect those that came before me right but I feel me and George Piggins are the best duo I like it I live for that hey what is pressure hey what is pressure hey what is pressure hey what is pressure what is that part what is it ain't nothing it ain't nothing yeah that what I'm trying to tell you you talking about pressure they know pressure we like we gonna come out and do I want to I like the energy that's coming out of Dallas Look, we then took care of Big Quinny Williams, got Vaughn Miller to get in there.

Hey, Joe, listen, you're doing a whole lot of talking, right? You're doing a whole lot of talking, and ain't gonna be in the middle of that field,

Starting point is 00:59:48 You hit me? I know you're happy y'all got Caleb Down. Do you hear me? Yeah. I know you're happy because the beginning of the season, right? And obviously, every season, it's always like this. Everybody's on the high. Everybody's on the high at the beginning, like a relationship.
Starting point is 00:59:59 In the beginning, the first six months, oh, my God, it's beautiful. down to reality. And that's been, that's been the main thing and the main problem, the main issue for so long. Before the season starts, it's always, oh my God, it's so beautiful. You're on that high, like when you first meet somebody. But then reality sets in the postseason. Huh? You're six months in. You got, you got comfortable. You can say a sentence and, and, and she can finish it. You see what I'm saying? Hey, Ocho, you pick it up what I put down. Diamonds on my neck. Joe. Hey, Joe, I want you to be realistic, huh? I'm being realistic, bro.
Starting point is 01:00:35 You're too hiding yourself right now. And if you dis-hide, that means when you come crashing down, boy, it's gonna be bad, boy. Man, I ain't studying out. Hey, hey, hey, listen, I ain't studying all that, bro. We're gonna back everything we're talking about. We're gonna back it up. We're gonna back it up, but you ain't on the field, Joe?
Starting point is 01:00:50 What you mean? I'm connected, homie. I am a cowboy. What you mean? I'm locked in. What is you talking about? Huh? Are you lucky we ain't got y'all on the schedule this year, boy?
Starting point is 01:01:00 Hey, Joe, I got you something. Last time y' y'all played us, what happened, Joe? Man, you're talking about, see that. you go talking about old stuff again. That only it don't matter. We're in 2026. You're talking about something happening way back yesterday. You hear me?
Starting point is 01:01:11 You need to lock in. We're in 226, homie. Hey, late 2026. The hype train been the same in the past 30 years. Every every year. See, there you go. Stay the time about old stuff. I'm just saying.
Starting point is 01:01:19 There you go, I'm just saying. I'm just saying. I'm just saying I'm talking about old stuff again. I'm being honest with you. The hype train for the star in Dallas has been the same every all, every off season leading me into the season. In the regular season, oh, it's always beautiful. Oh, it's always awesome.
Starting point is 01:01:31 But when it matters most, What's always happened, Joe? When it matters most, what's always happened, Joe. This man, they're talking about old stuff. Old stuff, we can't even control. It's gone. That's history. I mean, listen.
Starting point is 01:01:42 That's history. What is history? What is history? What is history? History is old stuff, ain't it? It's old news. It's old news. It's old with.
Starting point is 01:01:51 Hey, Joe, can I tell you something, Joe? What'd you want to do? I'm a positive dude, right? Okay. I wish the Cowboys, none but the best. Okay, we appreciate that. All right. We appreciate that.
Starting point is 01:02:02 Yeah. I don't know what that is. Man, you're all too, man. I can just imagine. What is it going to be like doing football season? Can I say something real quick, Unk? Listen to me. He's talking a whole lot of trash
Starting point is 01:02:23 for somebody that ain't going to take one snap. But we're going to back it up. I bet you we back it up. I bet you we back it up. Everything he says, they got to go out there and back it up. And if they don't, every week we come on here, boy I'm gonna let you have it boy boy you don't think them boys listen to this
Starting point is 01:02:41 you don't think they listen to us you don't think they see what going on you don't think they see they got somebody who got their back partner boy don't go out there and show out stop playing with them man listen listen listen all them boys watch the show they might not watch it live but everybody see the clip Joe everybody see the clip Joe so I'm just telling you you doing a whole lot of talking about somebody ain't going to take one snap offensively or defensively
Starting point is 01:03:01 so you're going to have them boys in trouble and that's your problem you worry about the wrong thing partner You worry about the wrong thing. You worry about the wrong thing, Ojo? Okay. Yeah. Okay. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:03:14 Amends on my neck I being? Yeah. East side, west side, north. Ha ha ha ha. Weep. Okay. Here's something we can sing our teeth into three-time Pro Bowl cornerback, Devon Witherspoon, and the Seahawks have reached an agreement.
Starting point is 01:03:32 Four years, $132 million, $101 million guaranteed, making him the highest-paid corner in NFL history. Ocho. Yes, sir. Spoon, reset the market. Yes, so. Just two years ago, the grand rate for a corner was about 20 million. Yes, sir.
Starting point is 01:03:50 Here we are now, two years later, it's $33 million. Yeah. Gonzalez up there saying, a Patriots. Yeah. Oh, he's going to reset it again. Yes, sir. It's going to cost you $34 million. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:04:05 It's getting up there, too. As difficult as a cornerback position has been, over the years to me. A lot of people will probably disagree with me, but I think playing quarterback is the most difficult position outside of quarterback. So it is.
Starting point is 01:04:17 Almost even, because you think about all these receivers, all these very talented elite receivers. You got a mirror. You have to do everything in front of them, but backwards. Yeah. You know, so Witherspoon,
Starting point is 01:04:29 I mean, Witherspoon, he's definitely deserving. If you watch them, I've been watching them, you know, over the years, one of my favorite defense backs, another player that I really, really enjoy watching that play for the Detroit
Starting point is 01:04:41 Detroit Lions. It's Brian Branch as well. So these are two or two of my favorites that don't get mentioned enough when to come to secondaries or elite defensive back and safety play. He's very, very worthy of this, man. I'm excited for him. I'm excited.
Starting point is 01:04:58 Eagles, y'all can only play one. Quignan, Mitchell, or Cooper DeJon, you can only pay one. Hey. I can tell you who it's going to be. Who? I'm just telling you who they can what they can do.
Starting point is 01:05:10 But, John Mitchell, what might be top three right now. Hey. It's about man to man. I don't know who the eagle the defense coordinator is,
Starting point is 01:05:18 but I know one thing, yeah, you go over there. Oh, Brother Fangio? Listen, you know, I need to do me a favor.
Starting point is 01:05:24 I need you to hold down his left side. Play man to man so I can worry about everything else, everywhere else. That, because you know,
Starting point is 01:05:32 they got Tareg Wolin. They got Wollin now and they move DeJon to safety, and then they're going to move Jejohn to the slot, you know, come, uh,
Starting point is 01:05:39 when they bring nickel on the field. Man, that's not fair. And you got them two hogs sitting up there on the front line, too? Yeah. Man, stop playing. So Gonzalez is going to be looking for a huge payday. He's going to be looking at 34 million now. Quinion, he going to be looking at 34, 35 million.
Starting point is 01:06:00 And guess who's coming back to the table? He's like, hey, you don't have to see me again. Pat? Pat. Oh, okay. Pat. Yeah. They're probably, all of them guys good, but man.
Starting point is 01:06:13 Hold on. We ain't pat up, though. He, he's coming back. He's on the second year of it. Oh, okay. He's like, bro. He's like, bro, I signed this $23, $24 million deal. They're already making $10 million more than me.
Starting point is 01:06:29 Oh, no. They're going to come back to him. He is a smooth and is gifted on the corner. His technique, he got the prettiest technique I've ever seen in a corner. Hey, to be that. I didn't lie. He's effortless. To be that damn tall, huh?
Starting point is 01:06:43 He tall is. I tall is old, Joe. He's legit. He's legit six three. Yeah. And legit. I ain't talking about, I ain't talking about no. Oh, no, he's six two.
Starting point is 01:06:52 He's six one. No, he legit. He might be, boy, he's tall, tall. Yeah. I'm talking about arranging. Man, it's arm. Man, that's going to walk, knuckles, knuckles just bruised up. They scrub the ground, Joe.
Starting point is 01:07:05 Man. Joe, he's nice. But that technique. He nice. Yeah. Most of the time, especially for tall corners, when you get him in space or you get them to turn their hips,
Starting point is 01:07:17 you know, they get kind of awkward because they show them. He can swivel them hips, don't you? Yeah, but he play corner, even though he's six, three, but he plays small. I don't know if that makes sense. You know what I mean? He's really, really, really good.
Starting point is 01:07:30 Yeah, he really, yeah, he real got, yeah, his hips, he could turn and get up out of there. You know, he got four, four speed. he play at all. He play it all. He really, really good. But I'm not surprised. I'm not surprised.
Starting point is 01:07:47 And I told Ocho, I told Ocho there, I said, Ocho, they're going to let a spoon go. They're going to let her, what you call him, Bole? I mean, he's gone. Yeah. I said, why you say, man, they got, I said, Ocho, the distractions. He do too many, too many things,
Starting point is 01:07:59 bone head plays on the field. And they can't pay him. They can't pay them. They can't. You got two guys like that? because now it's like when they play those two guys, they pay those two D tackles. Now how are you going to pay two corners?
Starting point is 01:08:14 Yeah. And Jaila Hertz. Now, what are you going to do with Jaila Hertz? Jaila Hurst contract up too? He's going to be looking for a payday. Damn. Well, the Eagles window is right in that too, boy. Yeah, you got to.
Starting point is 01:08:31 A window is right now. But, man, but, he's earned that payday. Three pro bowls. You saw what he did in that playoff run last year. him and Wolling, it was unbelievable. But he's been that guy, you know, since he got in. Yeah. And with him and Wolling on one side, both of them had elite speed.
Starting point is 01:08:52 That defensive front was unbelievable. And once they brought Ernest Jones in, he solidified everything. He shut everything down the road and the run, made sure everybody was where they needed to be, where they were supposed to be. They got a really, really good team. They got another, they got another two or three years in this window right here. But spoon A hundred and thirty two million
Starting point is 01:09:15 Well how much you get How much guarantee? 101 Oh It probably gained They probably gave 50 mil And signing They gop that boy down there
