Starting point is 00:03:42 Ocho, without any further ado, let's jump into our first segment. We run a little behind. That's me. No, no, no, no, no, no. We ain't running behind. We ain't running behind. Whose show is this?
Starting point is 00:03:53 Ours. Okay. Well, we ain't running behind when we start. That's when we start. Listen, it is what it is. We help people.
Starting point is 00:04:01 If you've been in the chat for a while, since 10 o'clock, we're 11 minutes late we apologize i love you aunt love you shoot now we can start we can start so we're gonna get to our first segment is a news cap cowboys evp executive vice president stephen jones we're very aware of fans frustration Cowboys EVP, Executive Vice President Stephen Jones, we're very aware of fans' frustration from this disastrous wildcard home playoff loss
Starting point is 00:04:31 to Jerry saying we would be all in this offseason to be in the NFL's least active team during the first few days of free agency in the negotiating period. Cowboy fans have never been more frustrated with ownership than they are right now cowboys executive vp stephen jones says we're very very aware everybody certainly has that right i know we're first where the frustration is it's in fact we haven't had success in the playoffs to their satisfaction until we do the crit then the criticism is certainly something that we're going to be aware of we know we're we something that we're going to be aware of.
Starting point is 00:05:13 We know we're we know that we're going to be there, but we're going to stick with what we believe will ultimately get us a championship here for our fans. We don't define all in by spending in free agency is keeping the court together. Kind of like what I see it. I have a problem. OK, what's the key? The key, the the key the key words to what he just said we're going to stick to what we believe in
Starting point is 00:05:29 and going all in doesn't require spending in free agency if you're going to be that blind to continue to believe in what you've always done
Starting point is 00:05:41 then you're going to always have the same results that you've had the past 20 years how many years has it been?, then you're going to always have the same results that you've had the past 20 years. How many years has it been? Last championship. You're going to have the same results that you've had the past 29 years. The fact that they still are tone deaf, know the fans are upset, but the first thing you say is we're going to stick to the same thing we've been doing. So as Cowboys fans or other fans of other teams in general, you have a right to be frustrated because nothing is going to change based on what Stephen
Starting point is 00:06:12 Jones just said. They're not willing to change the way they do things. You have to spend in free agency. You have no choice. That's what you have to do. You have to bring in other people, other personnel, veterans that have that leadership, that have playoff you have them bring in other people other personnel veterans that have that leadership that have playoff experience so when those times come in the playoffs those players know how to rise to the occasion but again we're going to stick to our guns and do things the way we feel it should be done which will result in the same goddamn results come this season do what you've always done season. Do what you've always done, you'll get what you've always got. But after
Starting point is 00:06:47 I listened to what Jerry said the other day, you remember what I said, Ocho? I said, listen to his comments. It seems to me all in means re-signing our guys. It means redoing something with that, making sure Micah's taken care of, making sure CeeDee Lamb is taken care of.
Starting point is 00:07:04 Now, and Fred... Well, you can CD lamb is taken care of now in fridge. Well, you can just say that you can, you can just say that you can just say that when you, when, when someone uses the words or use the term or the analogy of being all in, that means doing everything I can to make sure we're not back in the same situation. We were being bounced in the first round of the playoffs.
Starting point is 00:07:21 That's what all it means. If you're being specific on taking care of individual players, then you use that type of terminology. Come on, man. But see, I got to give you guys false hope. Because when Jerry says all-in, everybody thinks Jerry's going to be a big-time
Starting point is 00:07:37 spender for agency. But if you look at his history, Jerry hasn't spun him for agency in a very, very long time. And guess what else they haven't done in a very, very long time. He had. And guess what they haven't done? Guess what else they haven't done in a very, very long time? He hasn't been able to Super Bowl. So I get. But if you look at Kansas City, left tackle, free agency.
Starting point is 00:07:54 Right tackle, free agency. Left guard, free agency. Mark MVS, free agency. McKinnon, free agency. So, yeah, but they have had success. The draft. They drafted Chris Jones. they have had success. The draft. They drafted Chris Jones. They drafted Mahomes.
Starting point is 00:08:07 They drafted Kelsey. They drafted the corners. They drafted LeJarius Sneed. They drafted those things. They drafted McDuffie. Yes, Tranquil. They got him in free agency. So I think it needs to be a healthy blend.
Starting point is 00:08:22 But when people think free agency just in the Cowboys, they think big names, prime time. We got to go get a prime time where there are no prime times available. They ain't nothing. They're not giving those type of guys up. Those guys are not going to be on the market. So,
Starting point is 00:08:40 right. I understand. And like I said, listen to Jared. Cause like when I just read it, and then I listened to it, then I actually saw him actually give it. I say, well, he means all in means he's going to keep his core guys. That's what he meant by that.
Starting point is 00:08:56 And I think the fans need to understand that's what Jared means. He's going to make sure Micah stays in a Cowboys uniform. He's going to make sure CeeDee Lamb stays in a Cowboys uniform. He's going to make sure Dak stays in a Cowboys uniform. He's going to make sure CD Lamb stays in a Cowboys uniform. He's going to make sure Dak stays in a Cowboys uniform by extending him and lowering that cap number. Now, Tyron Smith, that's another story.
Starting point is 00:09:13 We know he's one of the better offensive tackles in all of football, but he hadn't played 60. He hadn't played a full season in a very, very long time. And I know the Cowboys have gone frustrated with that. Now the left guard, Smith, Tyler Smith he can he's interchangeable he's he's greater he can play guard left guard he can play left tackle
Starting point is 00:09:31 he cut his teeth at the left tackle spot they bumped him down the left guard when uh Tyron Smith came back so I don't think the Cowboys will have a problem kicking him back out the left tackle they lost Tyler Bias the center in free agency so it's going to be interesting to see now they can move terrence steel he played some left tackle but i think he's kind of cemented himself and found a home on the right side alongside uh uh zach martin so for me uh i saw but they did make a splash today they signed eric kendrick um he had originally agreed to a deal with the 49ers, but like, nah, he did a quick pivot, and he signed with the Cowboys.
Starting point is 00:10:13 So I like that. I like that. They need linebackers. You can't keep playing those small-ass guys. That nickel-and-dime defense is great. As long as the team plays into your hands, Ocho, not throwing the football. But what happens
Starting point is 00:10:30 when a team lines up like Green Bay did in the playoffs? What happens when the 49ers do what they did? What happens when the Cardinals do what they did? Or the Eagles? Now you're in a heap of trouble because you got safeties wearing 215 trying to hold up against
Starting point is 00:10:45 a guard, trying to hold up against a tackle or a fullback or a tight end. It ain't going to work. Nah, definitely ain't. And you know, speaking of, since we talk about the Eagles and you just brought them up, you know what owner is showing you the definition of all in?
Starting point is 00:11:01 That goddamn Howie Roseman. So you're Jeffrey Lurie's owner. Howie Roseman is the GM. I mean,ff jeffrey i'm sorry i'm sorry jeffrey lourde i mean that's that's what you call all in that's what you call making sure what happened last year doesn't happen and we can tend for a title that's what all in entails not saying it not in front of the cameras not in front of the media doing it through action in that goddamn checkbook. We're going to make sure we have a chance at that goddamn Lombardi coming this year. Because what, you know,
Starting point is 00:11:32 it's kind of when you get so close, I mean, you're so close, Ocho. They played so well the first half, kind of had the game in control. And the problem that I have is that when they had momentum in the game, they didn't get separation. Because if you look at this, watch this,
Starting point is 00:11:46 you guys will watch the Superbowl. You see a team get that momentum, but they don't put enough separation between the two. We watched the Eagles do it with the chiefs. We watched the 49ers do it with the chiefs. When you get that momentum, you need to put 17, 20,
Starting point is 00:11:59 24 points between you guys. You leave a team running. Like, hold on as bad as we played, we're only three points down. Now, what happens when we get the momentum? And you saw what happened. So, Eric Kendrick is on the way. He's a good
Starting point is 00:12:15 linebacker. The Wolf Hunter, he probably going to step aside. He's having those reoccurring neck injuries and anything that has to do with that neck and the back. You don't want to play. You don't want to play that. Let it go. Let it go. Vander ish.
Starting point is 00:12:32 Yeah, it's a Kyle. Yeah, he played well. And I like I like this signing by the Cowboys, but Jerry's right. Oh, sure. We go on free agency and because how's that going to look? Let's just say for the sake of argument, Mike Brown said, oh, being a fan, we go out in free agency because how's that going to look? Let's just say for the sake of argument,
Starting point is 00:12:46 Mike Brown says, Bingo fans, we going all in. And you on the roster. You making $10 million, but they come in and sign a receiver for $19 million. Ocho going to feel some type of way. Well, obviously, if I was on the roster, there would be no receiver you could sign
Starting point is 00:13:02 that is worth making more than I am anyway. We get T.O. in his prime. We get Randy Moss. Yeah, there was. Absolutely. Randy Moss. Did you forget about Randy? That's impossible. That's impossible. To have both of us on the same team. That's like saying Jamar Chase. Wait a minute. Stop. Come on, man. That's a hypothetical.
Starting point is 00:13:20 That's like saying Jamar Chase and Justin Jefferson can be all in and play for the Bengals right now. I see a lot of people talk about that rumor it's impossible there ain't enough money saying it see when you talk about there's not another receiver but i'm saying we've seen teams bring guys in yeah pay them a higher dollar amount than somebody already on that team have you not seen that no i've never seen a number one i've never seen a number one I'm just saying a player in general a defensive tackle or a defensive tackle on your team they sign a defensive tackle in free agency
Starting point is 00:13:50 and pay him more than a guy that's already been there or a cornerback or a safety I'm sorry I meant I was specific but I'm just saying so in all your years you've never seen somebody on your team they bring another player in and pay him more than somebody's already been there.
Starting point is 00:14:07 And most of the time, if they pay him more, that means the person coming in is better than the person that's already there. That is what has happened in those cases. Yes, I've seen that before. That doesn't necessarily mean that because that means a lot of times when I look at it, it's like, okay, in free agency we had to spend more. But
Starting point is 00:14:23 in order to get said individual. Yes, sir. You got to overpay. So if I go get a defensive player and I got to pay him. So let's just say I get a defensive player and I pay him 22 million, 23 million. And you ain't signed Micah.
Starting point is 00:14:41 And Micah sitting right there making four million. How you think Micah gonna feel? Or you bring a, let's just say you bring a receiver in, and let's say he's not the caliber of a CD, but you pay him $12 million, and there's a CD making $5 million. How do you think CD's going to feel?
Starting point is 00:14:54 Forget paying him top $30 million, $25 million, $28 million, $30 million. Just the mere fact that you brought a receiver in, and you're paying him actually more than what CD is currently making. CD is going to feel some type of way. You know, it's funny now that you mentioned in these scenarios that you're given in these somewhat hypotheticals. Has this ever happened? Because I can't recall it ever happened before. Yes. You remember they signed before they signed before they signed Bosa. They signed Hargrove. They gave him twenty four million, and Nick Bosa wasn't making that.
Starting point is 00:15:27 Yes, it happens all the time. It happens every year. Mm-hmm. Damn, man. Yeah. Happens all the time. I never thought about that. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:35 Okay. Okay. I like that. I like that. I like that. I like that. But what happened? They got Bosa together, huh?
Starting point is 00:15:42 Because he wasn't coming in. He's like, hold on. Look at Armstead. They signed Hargrave. Now they got to release Armstead because they can't pay everybody. So 49 seemingly go in all year. They're trying to win it
Starting point is 00:15:56 every year. You see what they did with Bolton. You see what they did with Hargrave. They're paying Warner. They're paying Debo. They're paying Christian McCaffrey. They gave Hargrave the money. They, uh, Ward. They paid him. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:12 They're like, hey, we going for it. Yeah. Yeah. That's the definition of all in. Now, I'm not sure what the Cowboys are doing, but there's a way to spread. You got to spread that money. Listen, you got to have your identity somewhere. Either you're going to have your identity on offense Either you're going to have your identity on offense or you're going to have your identity on defense.
Starting point is 00:16:28 It got to come from somewhere. If you're going to use the words all in, you need to do just that. Not stick to your guns and do what you've been doing in the past because if you do what you're doing in the past, then basically all you're telling us is you're just settling for mediocrity in the postseason. For example, Tennessee,
Starting point is 00:16:43 they just signed Calvin Ridley. Now, I got a problem with Tennessee because when A.J. Brown asked you for four years, $100 million, you laughed at it. Now you signed a guy that's four years, five years older than A.J. Brown when he asked you for the money and you gave him four years, $92 million. Now, how you think DeHart feels?
Starting point is 00:17:04 They just brought Calvin Ridley in the game four. What how you think DeHart feel? They just brought Calvin Ridley in the game four. What did they give DeHart? That's a good question. You know, I don't know the numbers. I don't know. What were the numbers? You remember? It ain't four years
Starting point is 00:17:20 for 92 with 50 fully guaranteed. I know it ain't that. I don't know what the numbers are in Tennessee for DeHop, but I know they ain't that. Yeah. How old is DeHop right now, you think? 32? 33?
Starting point is 00:17:36 Oh. Okay. Cabarilli, 30? DeHop, 31? DeHop, 31. How old Cabarilli? 29. 29. Yeah. Nowot 31, how old Calvin Ridley? 29. 29. Hey, yeah,
Starting point is 00:17:48 and when I think about it, well, Will Evans, they got something nice over there now at the receiving core. That's nice. Goddamn Calvin Ridley and Hot, boy,
Starting point is 00:17:57 that's a nice little combo. That's the best 8-9 team I've seen in a long time. Hey, listen. So who's going to run the ball? Who are you going to run the ball with? It's a passing
Starting point is 00:18:07 league, man. It's a passing league. This is a passing league. You can run the ball for goddamn decoration like having a cupcake and throwing sprinkles on that motherfucker. Throwing the sprinkles is a running game. But you meet your meat and potatoes is the passing game.
Starting point is 00:18:23 Who you got passing it? Who you got passing it?hop and you got that. Who you got passing it? Will Levis. Boy, you know he got an arm now. You might not be too fond of him. I got two of them as a matter of fact. You might not be too fond of him,
Starting point is 00:18:35 but he nice now. He can sling that rock. I'm Michael Kasson, founder and CEO of 3C Ventures and your guide on good company, the podcast where I sit down with the boldest innovators shaping what's next. In this episode, I'm joined by Anjali Sood, CEO of Tubi, for a conversation that's anything but ordinary. We dive into the competitive world of streaming, how she's turning so-called niche
Starting point is 00:19:01 into mainstream gold, connecting audiences with stories that truly make them feel seen. What others dismiss as niche, we embrace as core. It's this idea that there are so many stories out there, and if you can find a way to curate and help the right person discover the right content, the term that we always hear from our audience is that they feel seen. Get a front row seat to where media, marketing, technology, entertainment, and sports collide, and hear how leaders like Anjali are carving out space and shaking things up a bit in the most crowded of markets. Listen to Good Company on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Starting point is 00:19:58 In the fall of 1986, Ronald Reagan found himself at the center of a massive scandal that looked like it might bring down his presidency. Did you make a mistake in sending arms to Tehran, sir? No. It became known as the Iran-Contra affair. And I'm not taking any more questions in just a second. I'm going to ask... I'm Leon Nafok, co-creator of Slow Burn. In my podcast, Fiasco, Iran-Contra, You'll hear all the unbelievable details of a scandal
Starting point is 00:20:25 that captivated the nation nearly 40 years ago, but which few of us still remember today. The things that happened were so bizarre and insane, I can't begin to tell you. Please do. To hear the whole story, listen to Fiasco, Iran Contra on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Starting point is 00:20:56 It just happened, man. Yeah, the Chargers are trading Keenan Allen to the Bears for a fourth-round pick. They cut Mike Williams, and they restructured the contract of Joey Bosa and Khalil Mack. Last season, Allen had 108 catches, 1,243 yards. He was 16 catches, 11th in yards, tied for 18th in touchdowns.
Starting point is 00:21:22 But he was 136th in average, but that's what he is. He's an intermediate guy. He's a move the train guy. He's going to catch a bunch of passes. Not going to be for a big average. He's not going to average 14, 17 yards a catch. That's not what he is. He does a lot of the dirty work. Works in the slot.
Starting point is 00:21:40 Got tremendous move. Great transition in and out of breaks. Shifty. Sneaky sneaky can get behind you is he yeah he's a he's a uh kenan allen is one of those when i talk about route runners in nfl one of those that does need the offensive coordinators to help to scheme him open he's one of those one of those few now it's only a handful of them huh there's only a handful of them i'm gonna line you up out here like i used to do with Marvin Harrison. On the right side. Line you up on one side of the field. We're going to leave your
Starting point is 00:22:08 ass there all goddamn day. I need you to... When we call your number, we need you to get open. I need you to get open for me. And you know that Colts ain't do no motion either. Oh, no. Oh, no. And he getting open. Keenan Allen is one of those. Off the ball, oh, he nasty with it. You play
Starting point is 00:22:24 man, he finna sauce you up. You play man. He finna sauce you up. You play off. He finna sauce you up. His understanding of coverage zone, man, knowing when to sit, knowing when to keep going. Man, he's brilliant. He's brilliant.
Starting point is 00:22:34 So for the Bears, that's a good thing. Now the Bears have all these acquisitions. I just want to know what are we going to do with the quarterback? You already know what they're going to do with the quarterback position.
Starting point is 00:22:43 They're going to take they're going to take Caleb with you. I don't know, man. I don't know. I have a question. You would know better than me. What you think about them keeping Justin Fields and still drafting Caleb Williams and let him sit for a little bit?
Starting point is 00:22:59 It's the same situation. People thought they should do that with Peyton Manning and Andrew Luck. Ain't no way it's happening. Right. It it's happening. Right. It ain't happening. Okay. Now, we broke down the teams that are available. We broke down the teams together, teams that are available, and
Starting point is 00:23:15 I honestly thought it would be the Falcons. Obviously, now Kirk Cousins is going there. And what do we narrow it down to? We had three teams. Broncos might be in the mix. And we said Giants. Didn't we say Giants? Yeah, okay.
Starting point is 00:23:32 Oh, man. Oh, that's crazy. This time of year is kind of exciting. It's kind of exciting, man, to see where everybody's going. No, man, that's three quarterbacks in a row each year it is what it is i keep doing till i find one hey what you hey you keep marrying till you keep dating till you get it right that's a good one that's if you date and marry hey sometimes oh joe all you don't say you are women talking about you got to kiss a lot of
Starting point is 00:24:04 frogs to find a prince sometimes you got to sl kiss a lot of frogs to find a prince. Sometimes you gotta slay a lot of dragons to get you a queen. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, I like it. I like it. You remember Shrek? What they had to do? They had to get past the dragon, right? Sometimes you gotta slay a lot of
Starting point is 00:24:19 dragons to get you a queen. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. But listen, whoa, whoa boy when you say it like that you well oh they're gonna beat us up we're shadow sharp you heard shadow shopper okay don't you talk about a call referring to women and dragon you know you know you're right you're right you're right you're okay okay we see that we got to be careful you got to be careful about what you say but they understand it's merely an analogy. Listen, if the shoe don't fit, it shouldn't bother you.
Starting point is 00:24:52 If the shoe don't fit, if you're not a dragon, we know you're not a dragon. It's cool. Listen, everybody has the ability in today's era in society to identify with whatever they want to. Whatever you want to. So, if you're not a dragon, that's fine. Damn, that's good. I like the way you put that, though. You got to say a lot of that.
Starting point is 00:25:12 But here's the thing, though. Now you got me training a thought going back down memory lane and what it took to get to this point. Man, I don't know what it would be, Ocho. That'd be killing killing because everything i say you heard what he said yeah yeah he said this right this is my bag and he said this about this one about jess and he said i like god oh but this is what i don't understand oh joe what it's it's no ill intent on it's the thing i don't understand when it comes to me shannon take a joke when they question your sexuality when they do this Shannon, it's just a joke.
Starting point is 00:25:47 But hey, but when Shannon Sharpe says something, oh, he mean it. Let's set it in stone. Do you notice that there is no joke? Yeah, yeah, yeah. It moved. You know, the goalposts move. It all depends on who it is. Now, the goalposts move depending on who the individual is.
Starting point is 00:26:04 You know, some people it's know? Some people it's okay. Some people it's not. See, they're not used to seeing you in this space. That's the thing. They're not used to seeing you in this space. You normally suit, tie, you know, studious. So they haven't seen an open and authentic, organic
Starting point is 00:26:20 Shannon Sharp. So it's shocking to a lot of people now that they get to see you in this space. This is locker room, Shannon. This is on the bus, Shannon. This is going to this. Yeah. And that is what makes this so great, because it allows the people to see another side of you, the true side of you. When you don't have to be I don't want to say someone you're not when you're on tv but you do have to put on a different face if that makes sense of course i'm on television i'm with the disney i'm with i work for the company that got the got the got the ears okay yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah oh this right here oh shea shea i work for the company that got the horns you know what i'm saying that's all it's a little different so I just have to act accordingly
Starting point is 00:27:08 to the situation that I'm in but uh I like the move uh you look at what the Bears have done Keenan Allen DeAndre Swift, Gerald Everett Kevin Byard, Coleman Sheldon, Jonathan Owens Mr. Simone Biles
Starting point is 00:27:24 yeah and they also own excuse me Jonathan Owens. Mr. Simone Biles. Yeah. Yeah. And they also own, excuse me, the first overall pick and the ninth overall pick. So they got the number one from Carolina and they have their own pick, which is number nine. Right. Well, I'm wondering, think about where do you go defense do you go offense for me
Starting point is 00:27:48 if there's an offensive lineman rated how I'm going to go get in because I got to protect my quarterback we saw Bryce Young the difference is Bryce Young in Alabama had protection Bryce Young in Carolina got his ass kicked so you got to protect him I don't care who you got at receiver in Alabama have protection. Bryce Young in Carolina got his ass kicked.
Starting point is 00:28:07 You got to protect him. I don't care who you got at receiver. You could have DeHoff. You could have Keenan Allen. You could have Gerald Everett. You could have everybody you want. But if you don't protect that... If you can't get him the ball, it don't make no sense. It doesn't make a difference.
Starting point is 00:28:21 At all. Derrick Henry said on Mad dog radio at the Cowboys, never reached out to him in French. The Cowboys never called it all. That's where I stay in the off season. I'm kind of, uh, I'm kind of on my back end of my career and that's a great organization.
Starting point is 00:28:36 It would have been a great opportunity, but I'm thankful that I ended up here in Baltimore. I didn't know that he lived in Dallas in the off season. He's from, uh, Florida small town right outside of Jacksonville if I'm not mistaken, Uly. And Tennessee
Starting point is 00:28:49 obviously played with the Titans, so he probably lived in Nashville or the outskirts. And so I get it. Nice way to train. I mean, that's one thing. He gets his time in the locker room. I mean, excuse me, in the training room and equipment, you know, working out. I thought it would have been a great fit, but I thought Baltimore was always a better fit.
Starting point is 00:29:08 Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Most definitely. Baltimore is most definitely a better fit than the Cowboys are because of the play style, the offensive style of the Ravens. The Ravens go run that ball. The Ravens are one of the few teams in the NFL. I might add the Cleveland Browns in that that run the ball like they got goddamn Jamal Lewis. Like they got Jamal Lewis back there in the back, in the backfield. And obviously, Derrick Henry fits that mold and what the Ravens used to be. And pairing him with Lamar Jackson and the receiving core is a flowers. And I think Nelson Aguilar is still there. I think they're going to be fine.
Starting point is 00:29:43 They're going to have to make a splash somewhere else as well as far as offense is concerned and bringing in another dynamic receiver to go along to pair with Zay Flowers. They got to do that. I forgot about Rashad. Andrew should come back healthy.
Starting point is 00:30:02 I don't know if they signed a two-year deal with Aguilar. Is it a one-year deal? They still have DuVernay. Mm-hmm. I think they brought Gus Edwards back. Keon Mitchell. Keaton Mitchell. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:30:16 Oh, he's back. Keaton. Fasten him up. It's Keaton, right? It's Keaton Mitchell. Keaton Mitchell. I played with his dad. His dad played with
Starting point is 00:30:25 yeah dad played with me in cincinnati so uh uh yeah because he asked about a fight he was on the team with marvin yeah he was he was uh he was a rookie in 2000 yeah we won the championship he was a rookie with us which is at fast was AD. That's my guy. So, I like the fit because let me tell you why I like the fit in Baltimore because they're one of the teams that still have a fullback. Ricard goes to the Pro Bowl every year. Basically, he's an offensive lineman. He's a 300-pound guy that can catch.
Starting point is 00:31:01 But, you know, they give him a ball occasionally on short yardage, but he's a lineman. That's what he is. They throw him a few balls, he probably catches maybe 20 passes a year. Big Henry is... Well, the Ravens did trade. They traded Moses Moody to the Jets.
Starting point is 00:31:18 Gus Edwards is gone. Okay, Gus is gone. Are you into the Chargers? So, where did Eckler go? Chief did? The Chief just signed Hollywood Brown. Okay, from Arizona. Okay, that's going to be a good one.
Starting point is 00:31:37 That's a lot of speed, too, that boy. That's a lot of speed. Yep. That's good luck. If Mike Williams is not too expensive, I like Mike Williams. A big body guy that can make hey matter of fact hold on
Starting point is 00:31:49 man I saw the release of Mike Williams right man that boy nice man and I'm I know
Starting point is 00:31:56 I know but listen I'm sitting there arguing with the people on Twitter they talk about here number two here number three
Starting point is 00:32:03 here number two and I'm like man listen a healthy mike williams a healthy mike with if we can keep him on the field if you got if you got eyes if you got two eyes even if you got one eye you can see he's a she's a true number one when he's on point when he's on the field he is that boy the fact that he can't stay he can't stay on the field is the only problem and hey mike i know you're gonna see this mike i know you're gonna see this baby come holla at your boy let's work on your nutrition i want to keep you on the field let's i can straighten your core the insides i can help
Starting point is 00:32:34 you build a callus so you can stay on the field full time man boy you the real deal boy i love you i respect your game just holla at your boy but yeah man i don't think man we were going crazy uh uh it seems to me that the chiefs are gearing up to try to get that deep threat again like they had with tyreek a guy that can stretch the field and you let receive yeah and he gets yeah he can stretch it he can stretch it to that work underneath him and kelsey but like i said i really like if he's not too expensive i definitely definitely put a call in the Mike Weed because they haven't had a big body guy like that since Sammy Watkins. Yeah. Remember Sammy Watkins was there with Sammy. Yeah. Yeah. Big body.
Starting point is 00:33:13 Not done. I don't know if he has the speed, but he can run. Mike Williams faster than you think. Hey, listen, you know, it's funny. Mike Williams and Mike Evans have what I like to call deceptive speed. Because of their size, you think they can't run. But before you know it, they up on your toes before you even goddamn know it. Deceptive speed. So I like the move. I like the move that the Chiefs made. They're definitely going all in to try to get that three-peat.
Starting point is 00:33:40 Tyreek Hill wants the Dolphins to sign Mike Thomas. Just throwing this out there. Michael Thomas. I don't know to dolphin the sound of Mike Thomas. Just throwing this out there. Michael Thomas. I don't know if that's how you spell it, but anyway. That would be in Miami would be nice. Could you see Michael Thomas?
Starting point is 00:33:55 Would you like to see Michael Thomas in? Yeah, yeah. Listen. He's been healthy for three years. Another one. Again, I like what you just said he can't stay healthy the same with mike williams i'm gonna say the same thing with michael thomas if we get the injuries fixed if we do whatever we need to do in the off season to make sure he can stay on the field do you understand the damage that mike williams could do on short routes intermediate routes and sometimes he could
Starting point is 00:34:24 fool you and go deep. He's someone that can run every route on the route tree. Every route on the route tree and he cannot be covered. You got Twitter, right? What is Mike? You know what Mike,
Starting point is 00:34:37 Michael Thomas' Twitter handle is? What, Can't Guard Mike? Can't Guard Mike. And he lives just by that when he's on the field. Now, if we can get him to stay healthy on the field. Again, Mike, I know you're going to see this, baby. Holla at your boy. Holla at your boy.
Starting point is 00:34:53 13 years, no injuries. I can get you right. And I would love to have you down in Miami. Mike, think about this. Come to Miami. Call the Dolphins. Call Mike McDaniels. I'm taking the tussies.
Starting point is 00:35:06 Huh? I'm going to tell you where to go. I'm going to take you to tussies. I'm going to take you where to get your car wash. We go to the hard rock. We can play a little blackjack at the hard rock. Come on, Mike. He hasn't been the same since he had that historic season.
Starting point is 00:35:16 He was offensive player of the year, broke the record. I think he had 149 catches, 1,700 yards. And he had that ankle injury the following year. So that kind of been nagging. Yeah. But I like the, uh, has anybody signed,
Starting point is 00:35:27 uh, Mike Williams yet? But you know what? This was probably before your time. You remember Dwayne Bo for Kansas city? I'm not going to remember money. Bo, how'd you go ask me?
Starting point is 00:35:38 Do I remember Dwayne Bo? What? I remember money. Bo, man, Bo, we're cutting up when he was with Kansas city. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:44 Come on now. Man, Bo, Bo, Bo out here, Bo was cutting up when he was with Kansas City. Yeah. Come on now. Man, Bo out here. Bo out here in Miami. Yeah, I know Money Bo. Man, Money Bo, that's the real Daphne Dahl. Kyle Pitts asked Kirk Cousins one thing, and it changed for the jersey number eight. Money?
Starting point is 00:36:02 Like we all do? Check this out. This is what, listen to what Kurt said about it. We're going to play the sound, though, Joe. Okay. He was funny about it. I said, I'll write a check, whatever, you know, foundation. I'm not going to let you just give me the number.
Starting point is 00:36:16 I want to make it worth your while, you know, make a donation, whatever it needs to be. And he said, I just want, you know, targets every game, you know. He said, he was joking, you know. He kind of winked. So I joked with him. I said, good answer. Good answer. Yeah, that's cute. That's cute and fine and dandy. You're going to get the targets anyway, because- That's why your ass brought your ass there. Listen, based on the history of the quarterback that's coming, one thing you're going to do is
Starting point is 00:36:41 you're going to get everybody that's a part of that receiving core targets. Man, get your money, man. Get your money. Because you never give up your jersey number. You never give up your jersey number without giving something for. Oh, yeah, for compensation. Always. Always. And I'm sure he's going to give him something for that number eight. Matter of fact, quick little story.
Starting point is 00:36:57 Guess who had number 85 when I got to New England that year? Who? Aaron Hernandez. Oh, that's right. He went to 81. Yeah, Aaron, Aaron, Aaron. He went to 81 after that.
Starting point is 00:37:12 Yeah, yeah, he went to 81 after that. So when I got there, with all due respect, man, he like, I said, well, what you need, what you need for that 85, what? You know, we talk numbers. We talk numbers a little bit, you know,
Starting point is 00:37:26 and he ain't try to hit me across the head. He ain't try to hit me across the head. He say out of respect and based on who you are and what you've done in the league, man, I'm going to throw it to you for a little something, but I ain't had to give him number 20,000 for it. That's it. 20,000.
Starting point is 00:37:39 He show love because, you know, when it comes to them numbers, when it comes to, hey, um, you got to pay a pretty penny for them numbers, boy. got attached to it he had i don't know what he what number he wore in college uh but i wanted 84 because my brother had it i started out as 81 right i had 81 for the first two years ricky nateel had 84 so once he left be a free agency i asked dan could i switch numbers back then it wasn't you know you switch numbers whenever it now you ain't had to pay none you had to pay none
Starting point is 00:38:07 and so I got 84 but when I went to Baltimore Jermaine Lewis had 84 he didn't want to give it up that's the big man that's the big man he didn't want to give it up he'd say you know I done made a name and he's from Maryland I get it and you know because I
Starting point is 00:38:24 offered him his wife. He hasn't heard Rolexes. He said, nah, I'm good, bro. And so by that time, I was like, man, I didn't want 88. I could have got 88, but I just didn't. I didn't feel like I looked right in the 88. So I said, you know what? Frank Wainwright,
Starting point is 00:38:39 he was with me in Denver for, in camp one year, like a year before. And he was there I said uh we called him Freaky Frank I said Freaky Frank what you want for that number man he's a sharpie like sharpie you know I'll let you have it said nah Freaky Frank I said so what you like to do what's your hobbies I mean you got a hobby he said sharpie I love to fish oh that's right yeah yeah okay okay okay so heyap ain't no swindle. Right, right.
Starting point is 00:39:07 It was great. He got... Matter of fact, you just said Jermaine Lewis. I want to make sure I'm not thinking about the wrong person. Jermaine Lewis that played for the Saints too, right? No, he was with Baltimore. I got the wrong person? The one that ran the kickoff back in the Super Bowl?
Starting point is 00:39:22 The returner? Okay, I'm thinking about somebody else. I'm thinking about a dude. He was working. I think I have the wrong name. He was working a truck. He was selling beer. Yeah, I know who you're talking about.
Starting point is 00:39:33 No, not him. No, not him. Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay. I thought his name was Jermaine Lewis too.

It's this idea that there are so many stories out there, and if you can find a way to curate and help the right person discover the right content, the term that we always hear from our audience is that they feel seen. Get a front row seat to where media, marketing, technology, entertainment, and sports collide. And hear how leaders like Anjali are carving out space and shaking things up a bit in the most crowded of markets.

That's how many kids you got as many as I can pay for that's how many I got I'm with you when you're right I'm with you when you're right I'm with you when you're right I help create them take them to the bed take care of them
Starting point is 00:53:19 that's what I worry about if that was your daughter me and my daughter, the oldest daughter, cause she lived with me. We have a great relationship. If she came to me and she said, daddy,
Starting point is 00:53:32 I'm dating somebody 20 years older than me, baby, he make you happy. I say, you understand now when you get this age, he's going to be that age. You okay? Cause you might have to take care of it.
Starting point is 00:53:44 Daddy. That's my responsibility. I you might have to take care of him. Daddy, that's my responsibility. I'm marrying this man because I love him. I love the way he makes me feel. I love how he treats me. I love the man that he is. Take off. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:53:58 I like that. And the funny thing about it, anytime you express yourself on a certain topic that's going on or that's being talked about publicly the first thing people do is say what if that was yes or what if that was your daughter oh wait grown they all they they always do that they are they are grown at this point they're grown at this point listen Dre and Trayvon I'm Dre and Trayvon uh Joy Joy and Trayvon Diggs I wish him none but the best. And that's a blessing. That's a blessing. You know?
Starting point is 00:54:29 So I'm happy for young bull. Trayvon, let me know. Boy, you need any help? Need any help? Changing pamphlets? What to do? You're already a father, so I know you're good at what you do,
Starting point is 00:54:39 but remember that I got 11 months. You know the problem, Bill Toto? People on social media lie so much. Even when they hear the truth, they think somebody else is lying. That's their, that's their problem. I can't help it.
Starting point is 00:54:52 Cause y'all don't have that type of relationship with y'all kids. I don't, I can't help that. Y'all daughters wouldn't come to tell y'all when something is going on in their life. That's not my problem. Right. I got that type of relationship with my kids.
Starting point is 00:55:06 Right. Why would I... Me being mad, what does that change? That's going to push my kid away. Now, if they have kids, if she were to have kids with this older man, now I don't get the chance to see my
Starting point is 00:55:22 grandkids. Why? Because y'all... I'm not going to let y'all y'all but I'm not gonna let y'all run shit I'm not gonna let y'all run nothing in the shop house cause y'all don't pay no bills you can curse see y'all spend so much time worried about what's going on in somebody else's
Starting point is 00:55:38 house and y'all got the most effed up houses I know it I know your house effed up because you ain't had. Yeah. I know your house effed up because you spend you ain't had no time to clean your house up because you worried about
Starting point is 00:55:49 what everybody else has. You ain't got to have the old people who decide to say hey boy pick up this house. Right. Which means clean the house up. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:55:55 Y'all won't pick up your own house because you worried about everybody else and what they say and what they do with. What about you? You right.
Starting point is 00:56:11 You right. I'm cool with it cool I mean it would never change it would never change I don't know the time it would never change because they're there yeah there's a certain there's a certain excitement there's a certain excitement about negativity oh come here hey come here baby I. I didn't know you was here. Look who just called in, man. That's real. She just came through. She was out in them streets. Hey, baby. Hey.
Starting point is 00:56:31 I was at an event. I wasn't in the streets. What's up, baby? You good? You look good. Yeah. But the thing, the thing, the thing you about. Go ahead and marinate for me, baby. But but see my my daughter ain't gonna bring me right she ain't gonna just bring everybody
Starting point is 00:56:50 around me i've only i've only met two guys that she's barely ever dated only met two right she ain't bringing nobody she ain't bringing no casual or whatever she my daughter grown so i haven't hey we have conversation she pick up the phone something going on hey what's up i know when she called me certain times of the night certain times of the day i know something on the mind so i pick up the phone what's wrong yeah other time i say hey baby what's up but for the most part i know when something's going on yeah hold on hold on go ahead keep talking hey but anyway chat chat i mean listen we got to do better we got to do better especially when it comes to being other people's business i
Starting point is 00:57:30 know we we yearn for negativity we yearn for stories we yearn for that type of content i mean it's always fun uh to know what's going on in other people's lives especially when it comes to celebrities um we tend to talk down on the decisions that they've made. We talk about the men, we talk about the women, but I think a large percentage of you, if the opportunities at times presented themselves with these type of individuals that don't get to rub shoulders with all the time, because are just, we are normal people, you know, us normal folks. We are not really in those circles of those A-listers or athletes or, or superstars in their respective crafts. And when you're in that environment and you are introduced to the environment, I think, you know, it, it, it, it kind of warps your decision making
Starting point is 00:58:22 a little, a little bit, you know, you know? And that's pretty much it. I don't know what else to say other than I'm happy for Brother Jalen Green and Andrea, Trayvon Diggs and Joy. I'm happy. That's dope. I like it. Little bundles of joy, little blessings. Some people aren't going to like it, of the age difference and there shouldn't be any reason why anyone would have any ill will
Starting point is 00:58:48 or anything negative to say about Joy and Trayvon those are two grown consenting adults that chose to have a child that love each other and that wishes nothing but the best and at some point I can see marriage on the horizon
Starting point is 00:59:01 I can see marriage on the horizon and Stefan Diggs will probably be the best man and it'd be a destination wedding. It'd be a destination wedding and yeah, that's pretty much it. That's pretty much it.
Starting point is 00:59:17 But that's neither here nor there. That's exciting. And since we were talking about free agency hey Odell Odell Beckham I don't know if you're in the chat
Starting point is 00:59:29 but if you're not in the chat somebody's going to make sure you get this message come on down to Cincinnati come on down to Cincinnati let me know what you think about that what you think about that catching balls pause
Starting point is 00:59:41 from Joe Burrow huh what you think about that Cincinnati Cincinnati. They got a waffle house in Covington. We got Jeff Ruby steakhouse. We got Jay Alexander's in Hyde Park. They don't have the butter croissants anymore, Odell, but you will love it. You will love it. So let me know what you think. Text my phone because I'm on Wi-Fi right now. I ain't pay my bill, but I'm on Wi-Fi right now. Chat, what y'all think about that?
Starting point is 01:00:09 You held it down for me? Odell to Cincinnati. Yeah, I held it down for you. I just did a little recap on Drea and Joy and all of them. And then I then moved back into free agency. And tell me what you think about Odell coming to Cincinnati. Yeah, yeah yeah we good we good so what were you saying i heard the last part i heard you said the community we need to
Starting point is 01:00:30 come together and stop being so judgmental so critical of people in our own community and then and then what and then what i said after that is us normal folks that don't get to rub shoulders with the higher ups in those circles, if the opportunity presented itself, 98% of those that's talking shit would actually go as well. That's all. So you'll probably be in the same situation as the people you're talking about.
Starting point is 01:00:55 And they're probably going to say, nah, I wouldn't do that because I got morals and I got values and man, never say what you were doing to your place in that situation. It's easy to say when it probably never happened anyway. But but yeah, and that's it. Then I switched back over to free agency and I was sending Odell a message to tell Odell to come to Cincinnati because we got good food in Cincinnati. And how would you like to catch balls? Pause. Because the thing is, you know what I hear?
Starting point is 01:01:25 Man, no matter how much money I got, I wouldn't do it. Bro, these women, first of all, y'all got $5,000 and you got a $3,000 purse. So what you mean? You mean to tell me if you had $10 million, $15 million, you wouldn't buy this? Guys, think about what you're living. You're driving a $70, 70 000 car living in an apartment you mean to tell me you made 40 million dollars 50 million dollars a year you wouldn't do this stop lying see y'all say stuff because y'all won't y'all want social media to agree with you guys so bad
