Bill Belichick is insane. Ocho, take a listen to what Devin McCourty had to say about Coach Belichick. This is my rookie year. We're playing the Jets on a Monday night, so Bill Belichick is insane. Ocho, take a listen to what Devin McCourty had to say about Coach Belichick. Yeah. This is my rookie year. We're playing the Jets on a Monday night, so we're doing a nighttime walkthrough Sunday night before the game. And he grabs all the corners and he grabs me and he says,

hey, when we're running down this sideline, the way the wind pattern is in our stadium going towards the open end, the wind whirls like this. So the ball's going to look like it's going further than what it is, but it's going to hit that wind and it's just going to drop. So when you're running on this side, make sure you turn around and get your head back. And I remember sitting there like, really do the wind pattern. And sure enough, I get a go ball on that side against Braylon Edwards. I turned and then I looked back at him

and then I remember like what Bill said, I turned my head back, ball drops right in my lap, get an interception. From that point on, there was nothing the guy could tell me that I would be like, nope, I believe in everything. I was drinking a Kool-Aid heavy after that. You know, old Meadowlands,

everybody knows there's a win and you have to play the open end, the wind swirls a different way and the quarterbacks knew it. It's kind of like certain areas, like there was a win, and you have to play the open end, the win swirls a different way, and the quarterbacks knew it. It's kind of like certain areas, like there was a field, Ocho, and there was a dip in the field. It's like, man, when you're on this side, there's a dip in the field, so just be careful.

Coach Belichick having played, he was the D coordinator for the Giants. Also, remember he was at the Jets? So he had been in that stadium for so long. So he knew. He knew. I remember that. Playing there as well. We had the same thing.

And what Carson would do when we were on that side of the field, if you're on that hash, the D&E deep balls, he wouldn't throw them. Yeah. He wouldn't throw them that way. I remember that. So that story is correct. So there was no bull drive. And it's because of the gate, right?

The opening, yes. It's open. Yeah. Mm-hmm. I remember that. CJ Stroud denied his intention with the little bro, Caleb Williams, during the post-game interaction in week two.

He explained how older players approached him on the field last year to offer helpful advice, so he wanted to pay it forward. Ocho, let's take a listen to the sound, Caleb and CJ. Yeah, I saw that. I was trying to like, little bro him or nothing. He knows that too. I have a ton of respect for him. I told him I have respect for him.

But I had so many guys coming to me after games last year, and that meant the world to me that those guys even thought about getting me advice. So I just try to get back to what the game is getting to me. So I wish him the best, man. I want him to do amazing in this league. I think he will. I think that he'll get his groove. And once you get your rhythm, I didn't get my rhythm until like week three, week four.

So I can see him, his game picking up from here. And so, and, you know, I don't think he was trying to like, you know, be any towards, he just upset that they lost. I totally understand. So I have a ton of respect

for that guy, man. I want him to do extremely well, just like any other guy until we play on that day. You know what I mean? After the game, we can be cool.

You know what I mean? But I'm definitely, you know, rooting for him and I want to see him do extremely well. Is everything we're trying to show somebody up, Ocho, is that where we are now? I mean, I kind of understand, though.

You know? I mean, you got to put yourself in Caleb Williams' shoes. You know, I'm going against the number one quarterback. You know, that's my partner. You know, whether you know each other or not. I'm just against the number one quarterback. That's my partner. Whether you know each other or not, I'm just coming off a bad game though. I'm just coming off a bad game. And at that time

with cameras rolling, with you mic'd up, with you telling me wanting to not make certain plays or telling me I need to make certain plays or certain throws at that time when everybody's listening and watching can be, I think it can be a little uncomfortable.

Even with C.J. Stroud's intentions not being that. Just that I think the timing and the setting of doing so was maybe a little wrong, you know? That's all. That's all. But I can kind of see both sides. Because when it comes to Stroud, you know, Stroud intentions, he's authentic as it gets. Right.

I'm talking about authentic. If you don't know him yet, you know, Stroud intentions, he's authentic as it gets. Right. I'm talking about authentic. If you don't know him yet, you know, if you know his history, you know, I didn't know Stroud for a little minute. You know, he grew up with my son out there in L.A. now. You know, so I'm talking about when I talk about authentic as it gets, you know, and you won't know until you actually meet him in person and talk to him. So I know he meant nothing by what he was trying to do. His intentions were pure right in the message he was trying to give caleb but i can understand caleb coming off a loss after a game feeling a certain way about losing the game and having a bad game and just the timing might have been just off a tad bit so that's why you could see the mannerisms

of of him listening and then trying to pull away and then stride out trying to engage again and it feeling like or like like come on man i get it and that's why ojo i don't i don't even offer any advice i don't offer i don't try to mentor if you want to reach out i'll reach out i'll respond i'll return i'll call you back or somebody get in touch say man such and such trying to reach out to you okay hey he give information because that's why that's why me the way I took it man when them

guys would walk up to me like damn little sharp you gonna be like big bro huh man that bit the world of me I'll try and catch with one pass but somebody saw something in me that made them think that I could be like my big brother right I don't care if you ain't if you a day older than me you somebody saw something in me that made them think that I could be like my big brother. Right. I don't care if you ain't know, but if you a day older than me, you could offer me some

advice. You offer me words of encouragement. I'm good. Tell me. Damn. Hey, I ain't. I've never been too proud to receive info that I believe can be beneficial. So that's why I'm in C.

Oh, so that's why I don't. Man, you should have mentored. Ask. I ain't stepping on nobody toes because for that very reason everybody think you trying to son of everybody don't want Shannon's assistant everybody don't want Shannon's help if they want it they'll reach out that's where I am on that situation

so guys there are a lot of guys I never mentioned their name if they want to mention it they'll mention it talk to them a lot. Hey, do I stay up? Do I go? Hey, man, you've been through this, blah, blah, blah. Hey, you have to understand what it's like here.

You're never going to be as well as thought of there. X, Y, and Z. Hey, man, you're doing great. You know, travel, reach out. Nephew, reach out. What you think? What you see? Man, this is, travel, reach out. Nephew, reach out. Oh, what you think? What you see? Man, this is what I'm looking at.

This is what I see. And from the time I had a relationship, I felt he made me feel if I saw something in his game, I could reach out and tell him. You got a phone. Hey, this is what I'm seeing. But everybody's not receptive like that everybody

you know i ain't trying to be your big brother i'm not trying to be anything i'm trying to offer you some advice so way i do it if you want the advice you reach out if you don't i'm cool and no no thing hey bro it's cool yeah it's cool right but, right? But listen, I see both sides. Yeah. I see both sides. But I know one thing. I know a lot of people might not be on Caleb's side right now. They might be talking trash. You know, some of the pundits, some of the analysts, you know,

saying some things, whatnot, because of his play, you know, and throwing interceptions, making errant throws. I know one thing. When that young brother figures it out, understands the pace of the game, the flow of the game, catches that rhythm.

When Caleb Williams catches that rhythm and the speed of the game and the game starts to slow down to him and he's able to process information, boy, it's going to be hell, boy.

Yeah. And that's how it is with anything. He got all the tools. Oh, yeah. He can do it all. He can spin it. Got an arm. He can run.

Throw on the run. But it's like in this digital space, you know, guys reach out. I sit down and have a conversation with them. I say, well, I kind of did it like this and so forth and so on. And I said, you're kind of in a similar situation. I said, because you're somebody

fast. But you got to work at it now. I said, now, if you just try to get in this to do, I said, what actually are you trying to do? Because if you're not going to devote the time, what good is it? I said, bro, you got to spend time. I good is it?

I said, bro, you got to spend time. I said, you don't understand how much time my team spends that, you know, I have an idea. That's one thing about, her phone don't do not disturb except for one number. And so when that number, and sometimes that number calls at midnight

and if you didn't know better, you swear she was expecting me to call because she's wide awake and sometimes that conversation might be five minutes and sometimes it might be an hour and 35 minutes but she's listening to what I have to say because at the end of the day

we're trying to make Nightcap as good as we possibly can pass this information along a uh ojo's producer so forth and so on same thing with cj we're looking at okay who can we get that's going to be engaging who's going to be entertaining got a great story to tell that's what we're trying to do we're trying to create we're trying to create content that we think our viewing audience our listening audience that they want to hear. That's what we try to do.

We study the trend. We try to stay above it or in it, never fall behind it. We're looking at numbers, and we're seeing what we need to do. We see comments, and we listen. How can we give them what we want? But at the end of the day, it's Unk and Ocho. We got to be true to who we are. Yes, we want but at the end of the day it's uncle no show we got to be true to who we are yes we want to please our fan base we want to please the people that subscribe people that watch people that purchase our merchandise but at the end of the day you have to be oh joe

i have to be on with two different people but we're striving for the same thing so yeah a lot of times people reach out and, you know, when you explain to them what it takes, I said, it's not easy. I mean, it's like trying to get an electronic. I mean, it's like trying to get it. It's like, okay, I'm going to compete with Apple. Boy, they got

$400 billion in cash. They spent another... Speaking of Apple, I was with Tim Cook early this evening. They were doing an unveiling of the iPhone 16.

You got what? They gave me an iPhone 16 Pro Max, whatever you call it. I'm excited, though. I'm excited to open this up. I don't know. I'm going backwards. I. I'm excited to open this up. I don't know. I'm going backwards. I think I'm about to get me a flip phone. I'm done with that. I'm done.

They got me running scared. I see I think Motorola got a flip phone that you can fold up and put it in your pocket like a billfold. That's what I'm looking for. There you go.

Shoot, that'll work. If I give you another phone, I ain't going to have no Instagram on it. I ain't going to have no apps on it. Just a phone. There you go. That'll work. Yeah, man. They got me running scared, Ocho.

Ocho, Andy Reed says, Isaiah Pacheco is headed to IR to have surgery and there has no timeline. Said it could be the season or next. Excuse me. Should Chiefs fans be panicking? Oh, absolutely not. Absolutely not. Listen, if you understand the running back position where players are replaceable, now there's nothing wrong with pacheco but you know there's a there's an upper echelon of running backs your alvin kamara's your christian mccaffrey's your nick

chubbs your your derrick henry's they ain't got no i yeah i think pacheco would be in the tier two yeah correct me if i'm wrong he would be in the tier two of yes you know so filling in that position or having someone else fill that role that pacheco does it would be easier to do and i mean that in a respectful way it just it is what it is you can find someone else to put in that position that can give you that same production well they got kareem hunt coming back and before he you know got in trouble he was as good at running and catching the football as they had um you remember that outstanding rookie season? I mean, his first game, he did a number on Coach Belichick.

And Coach Belichick, I think, went to the center field and said, son, you got a hell of a career in front of you. And he had a little mishap. He got in some trouble. And he ended up, if I'm not mistaken, I think they released him and he ended up signing with Cleveland, had a couple of good years there. But the thing is, Ochoa, think about it. You lose Pacheco and you saw the Chiefs last year. him and he ended up signing with Cleveland had a couple of good years there but I if the thing is what you think about it you lose Pacheco

and you saw the cheese last year in the playoffs and this year they start to run the ball a little bit more now you've already out Hollywood guy you was counting on so that's two weapons now remember they bench their left tackle they're kind of picking up starting

up they benched it so now you bench their left tackle. They're kind of picking up, starting up. They benched it. So now you bench your left tackle. Your other guy that came in, he got two penalties. He held on the win. No Hollywood, no Pacheco. At some point in time, you know, well, who's the biggest threat to the Chiefs? The Chiefs. And injuries.

That's the biggest threat. You can't keep losing these good-ass players. Oh, next man up. If the next man was so good, he'd have been up. Or he wouldn't have had to. No, if the next man was so good, he would have already been up there. Exactly. He'd be the guy. And this is the funny thing. This is the funny

thing about the Patriots. I'm talking about the Patriots. This is the funny thing about the Chiefs. Last year, they had issues. Everybody dropping the balls nobody throw the ball to offensively they stunk they were stinking up the house november in the in the month of october they were very very good at getting over adversity and just keep on chopping wood and chopping wood and chopping wood. And I think it's going to be the same thing again. Because as well as you know,

when you have a quarterback like that, of that caliber, no matter what turmoil is going on around you and your team, as long as you have that centerpiece in place, you will always have a chance to win. Well, Trav's going to have to pick it up. I mean, I think he got, what, three, four catches for

39 yards. That ain't going to cut it, though, Joe. Rasheed Rice is giving you, you know, he's taking that next step. He's playing unbelievable. I mean, the way he finished the last half of the season, postseason, okay. He picked right up.

He's picking it right where he left off at. Now, we need Trav to go along with that. They got to give him the ball now. They got to give him the ball. Have some special plays called up for him. Depending on who they're

playing, he's going to have games where he's going to go slap ass off. And then you're going to play some teams that can be like, you know what? We're taking you away no matter what. We're taking you away. We double you no matter what. No matter where you go. And then obviously everyone else is going to have to do what they need to do.

Rasheed Rice, Xavier Worthy is going to have to go off. He has to go off and he needs to make them pay early. Xavier needs to make them pay early. Xavier needs to make him pay early. Yeah. So that's where I am on that. I think the thing is for them is that it needs to be a situation where the guy's going to have to step up.

I'm anxious to see what Kareem Hunt can do. Maybe they go out and get Jet McKinnon because he's unbelievable. He can run the ball. He's better in the passing game. Great at blocking. Great special teams player. So it'd be interesting to see how that works out for them. Wish Pacheco a speedy recovery. Jim Harbaugh is back delivering great football moments and quotes.

Let's take a listen to him giving props to his coaching staff, Ochoa. He's just a great coach. I mean, one of the best I've ever been around. You know, like Moses, I'm going to, I'm going to die leaning on my staff. Greg Roman, Jesse Minner,

Ryan Fick, and those coordinators are, you know, my opinion, the, some of the best in the business. You like that? You see Greg Roman?

Remember Greg Roman was his brother, John. Yeah. Yeah. You see? Mm-hmm. you like that you see greg roman remember greg roman was his brother john yeah yeah you see his d coordinator his former d coordinator at michigan was the d coordinator last year for the last couple of years for his brother john got a head coaching job in seattle you see you see how they take it? One hand, one hand lift the other. Always. And the coaching circle is so tight-knit. Yes.

Hang on, who you know. It's not what you know, it's who you know. Especially in that area. If you look at the umbrella of where some of the coaches come from, and then it expands out and they all get their opportunities. You go from D coordinator

to officer coordinator to head coach and everybody. At some point, everyone always keeps a job and you always bring your brother with you. Look at Mike McDonnell. Look at Mike McDaniel's staff.

Guarantee at some point in time, they was associated with Kyle Shanahan. Look at the Rams staff. Look at it. Matt LaFleur and Sean McVay. Go look. That's crazy. That's dope. That's dope. That's dope. That's dope.

That's dope.

For those of you that didn't see the games, Arsenal played at Atlanta. Obviously, it was a draw-draw. Nobody scored. Arsenal, six shots on goal.

Six shots on goal, only two on target. At Atlanta, eight shots on goal, only two that were on target. Both teams had about around the same possession. Arsenal had about 46% possession. At Atlanta, had 54% possession. Pass accuracy was the same. Fouls were almost about the same. Offsides, too.

Blah, blah. That matters not. Listen, the game ended up tied. It was a draw. It's very, very early in the tournament. As the tournament goes on further and further, it will get better and better, especially for those of you that are gamblers. You already know what to do.

Second game of the day was Atletico Madrid and RB Leipzig. Hold on, hold on, hold on. Atletico Madrid beat Leipzig 2-1. Antonio Griezmann scored in the 28th minute. Jose Maria

Jimenez scored in the 9th minute. Listen, Atletico Madrid had 21 shots on goal. They had 21 shots on goal, only four on target. But for those of you that play the game of FIFA or play EFC, those are that, those kind of numbers. RB Leipzig had

one goal from Benjamin Sesko in the 4th minute. They only had 7 shots on goal. Obviously, Atletico Madrid dominated the ball in all phases of the game. Midfield in the final third. Atletico Madrid are unbeaten across their last 11 UEFA Champions League matches, obviously after winning today.

That's the second longest streak ever in the competition after 13-mmax streak between October 2017 to December 20th. And that is it for our Soccer Cap tonight. Don't forget, next Tuesday and Wednesday, Champions League is back. Paramount+. That was Soccer Cap with yours truly ocho single now the game of the night show hey show time otani just had one of the greatest performance in mlb history he went six or six ocho three home runs two doubles or singles 10 rbi if i'm not mistaken he's the 16th

guy to have 10 rbis in a game i think mark whitten has the record he had four home runs in a game and he had 12 rbis i think that's the record with the st louis cardinals and he had four runs go score two stolen bases he became the first player in mlb history to reach the 50 50 club now he has 51 stolen bases 51 homers Ocho what do you think about Showtime Shohei Otani listen Showtime Shohei Otani is is doing something that has never been done before it's never been done before but the funny thing about it is a story that nobody will believe but I do have video evidence of me doing something similar like to this when i played for liberty city optimus baseball club you know i played

baseball when i was young now probably back huh let me see how you're bad the holy battle let me see okay hold on hold on man so you know now hold on let know now hold on, let me show you now you can see me? yeah, I see you tell me when you're going to throw the pitch I throw it right now strike

the ball already glowed the catcher throwing it back to me nah, nah, nah nah nah nah that's gone that was a home run right there listen hey I was a 5 tooler when I was 8 years old now I was a 5 tooler

they say you was a gardener you did landscaping you had a hoe a rake some hedges a hedger and a lawnmower those are tools you had I had the Marlins A rake, some hedges, an alarm more. Those are the tools you had. I had the Marlins. The Marlins was looking at me.

The Marlins was looking at me. The Black Marlins? No, I'm talking about the Florida Marlins. Oh, okay. I thought you were talking about the fish. No, no, no, no, no. I'm talking about the Florida Marlins. No, they were trying to draft me out of high school to play baseball because I was a five-tooler.

I hit 30 and 30 at 10 years old. I had 30. I had 30 home run the 30 30 stolen bases. So that's why, you know, seeing Ohtani have a 50 50. That's that's an amazing feat. But if I was able to do it at 12 years old, imagine if I went to the big leagues and didn't choose football. I would have probably done it there before he did. Yeah, I don't know. You might have had 50 inside the park home runs.

I don't know if you hit it on the fifth. I'm old enough to remember when Canseco was the first to do it. He had 40-40. And I think it was in the late 80s. I think 88, 86, something like that around there when he did it. And obviously Barry Bonds did it. A-Rod did it. Ronald Acuna did it last

year. I think he had over 40 home runs and 70 steals. I mean, he's a modern-day Babe Ruth. Now, because I think this is the first time that they've really allowed – because there are a lot of great players that came into pictures that could hit in college.

But once they – oh, yeah, yeah, there are a lot of great pictures that could hit in college. But once they became pictures in the majors, they cut it out. He said, because he's like, I'm only going to go somewhere that you're going to let me do both. I have a question. I'm glad you said that. Now, you know, I don't watch much baseball, so now you put me up on game. Now, I didn't know there were actually pitchers that could also slug just as good. Oh, in college?

Oh, absolutely. Oh, absolutely. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Occasionally, you see them come in and they'll pitch it. Hold on, but are they as efficient as he is at both? He's efficient as a pitcher and he's efficient as a slugger at the same time.

In college, yes. In college, yes. It didn't translate to the pros though. No, because they make them choose one or the other. Now they come in and you pitch hit. Now if you went to the National League before they got the DH, yeah, you had to hit. In the American League, the pitch hit. Now if you went to the National League before they got the DH, yeah, you had to hit. In the American League,

the pitchers never hit because you had the DH. But now that you have the DH in both leagues, it's a different story. But yeah, there were pitchers that absolutely could crush it. But when you throw a 98, you throw it 100 miles an hour,

nah bro, you only going to do one. You choose. And pitchers make the most, some pitchers making bread, and you're only working every five days, Ocho. But think about this, though. Shea Hill got 10 years, 700 million. Yeah. So think about all those players coming out of college

that know they can pitch and can also slug. Now they can make the decision and say, you know what, listen, if I'm coming to your team, I want to be able to do both. So I'm of that much more value to you because I can do more. I don't even – I'm not so sure they still – I mean, yeah. I mean, I don't know if they let pitchers hit like they once did. I mean, occasionally they would come in and pitch hit.

I think – I'm trying to think the pitcher that hit up I'm trying to think there was a pitcher that hit a pinch hit home run in the playoffs and I'm old enough to remember that I think it was the Cardinals against the Dodgers or the Dodgers against Rick Needen I think is who it was that hit that pinch hit

home run are you looking it up? Pinch at home run pitcher in the playoffs? Hey, that's crazy when I think about it. Because, like, you know, I used to pitch, too. You did? I used to pitch. Hey, listen, I had a hell of a split finger, a knuckleball.

Let me see how you hold your hand for the knuckleball. Oh, my knuckleball? Yeah, let me see. How you hold it? Like that. That's what I'm doing. No. Oh, Joe, you got to see.

You see all these fingers on it? No, no, no, no, no, no. No, that's how you, that's, see. That's the only way you can throw a knuckleball. You can't throw it with two fingers. How you going to tell me? I call it the orthopedic way. How you going to tell me?

No, you just got arthritis. Oh, I ain't got no arthritis. I'm telling you. Listen, I set up, right? I set up. Boom, I'm here. Yeah. Uh-uh.

Uh-uh. And once I come up here, I'm like this. I'm like this with the pitch. I'm telling you. Hold up. Let me ask you a question. Are you trying to throw with the pitch. Are you trying to... Hold up. Let me ask you a question. Are you trying to throw a split finger? Are you trying to throw a two-seam?

You're trying to throw a four-seam? You're trying to throw a cutter? Listen. Listen. Two-seam, four-seam fastball. I don't need that. I don't even need that in my repertoire because I can throw...

I can throw a 120-mile-per-hour slider. So you don't throw the cut fastball like Mo Rivera, the cutter? No, I ain't got that in my repertoire. Yeah. I'm just saying, listen, my knuckleball, I know you taught, this is the way they teach you to do it. Yeah. But the way I flip my wrist, I flip my wrist,

I can use two fingers, even though this is supposed to be a two-finger split. But I can do it because I can turn my wrist and I can make a nut. But you can't turn your wrist. That's why it's like this here. Because you want the ball to dance, Ocho. But it can dance.

I'm telling you, I know how to make it dance. No, Kirk Gibson was a, he was a, he pinch hit. That was the 88 World Series against the pitcher. There was a pitcher that hit a pinch hit home run. I think it's Rick Niedenfuehler. I mean, just type in pitcher that pinch hit,

pitcher pitch hit in the playoffs. Hey, listen, but I had a in high school? Yeah. I had a curveball? Boy, listen, I had a curveball like no other. You throw the slur like Bob Levin?

Nah, nah. My curve was like like Pedro other. You throw the slur like Bob Levin? Nah, nah, my curve was like, um, like, uh, Pedro Martinez. Oh, okay. It was like that. Yeah. Yeah, I had a nice curve, like Pedro. Yeah. Was it Luke or 12 to 6? Huh?

Was it 12 to 6? Nah, 6 to 12. He can't be 6 to 12. Ha ha ha ha. Nah, 6'12". You don't get me 6'12". You throw sidearm on y'all? Hey, 6'12". Hey, listen. It's a funny thing. Let me tell you how good of a pitcher I was.

I had my glove. My glove was an ambidextrous glove sometimes I pitch with my right hand and my right hand gets sore they didn't even have to come they didn't have to come

to the mound and get me out I just turned the other way and put the glove on the other hand pitching my left okay like that's how

that's how good I was you ain't never seen no ambidextrous pitcher and then like so with my right, I think Michigan got one. I think there's a brother that, I think he might have just got drafted that he was. For real? Yeah.

Oh, that's live. I thought I was the only one. I think, but there, I think they got a guy got drafted this year. Throw, I think he throw 90 with both left and right. You know, Greg Abbott that played for the Angels angels he had uh he had one hand and he had yeah i remember greg abby yeah yeah i remember greg so uh yeah i like baseball

listen i don't watch it much because it's hard for me to i used to enjoy the game if i get that if i get that maybe the fifth inning i can can shoot through the whole thing. But the game, it's such a tedious process to get through the game, the pitches and the waiting. Give me any five. Give me two hot dogs and a Coke with no ice and some fries and a popcorn. I can sit through it. But from inning one all the way to nine, I can't do it. No.

You got to, like, I mean, going to the Dodger games, man, you got to look. It's one way in and one way out. So, I'm going to give you a good three, four innings. I'm going to be there, like, before I get there, like, the top of the second. Right. By the fifth, sixth inning. Right. I'm up out of there.

Right, right, right. I'm not going to be in no two- hour traffic to get home after no ball game that ain't gonna happen I give you a couple of innings I'm up out of there I gots to go, eat some chicken fingers like you said some chicken tenders and some fries I'ma bounce

that's all I got for you bro Ocho, Ocho, Ocho your boy got some good news on Monday whoa, whoa, talk to me wait, let me wipe my forehead now tell me something good Ocho, Ocho, Ocho, your boy got some good news on Monday. Whoa, whoa, talk to me. Wait, whoa, whoa, whoa, wait. Let me wipe my forehead now. Tell me something good.

Tell me something good. Come on, come on, come on, come on. Again, I won my appeal. Okay. Against Favre. He said I defamed him. And in a strongly worded opinion, they said Mr. Sharp offered strong opinions based on things that were reported. It's fine.

And that's not defamation. So hopefully you look, there's a chance he tries to throw a Hail Mary and take it to the Supreme Court. Who knows? Maybe his job is to, but I was never going to back down. And PMAC said, hey, he didn't know. I don't feel I did anything wrong. I ain't got no problem, Mocho.

And fans and people that's listening and watching right now, you've heard me say. Actions, I control that. Consequences are out of my control. But the consequences that come from my actions, I stand here on it. I take it.

I'm wrong. I'm wrong. I don't believe I defame Brett Favre. I believe I offered a very strong opinion on what was reported in the paper. Speaking of what was reported, is this still true? Has the money been paid back? Or are we going to leave that alone?

He paid the original, but they said he owes interest that hasn't been paid back. Oh, interest. That's what was reported. I was speaking on what reported. Now, at the time, I said he took money. Skip said he paid it back.

I said, and what about the interest? It's been reported that the interest hadn't been paid back. And like the funds went, or some of the funds, $5 million, $4 million or something, went for a volleyball arena. And so, you know, I was surprised that he filed a lawsuit. And so, you know what I

always do, Ocho? I go call, I get with Marvin, I go in, I say, so what are we going to do? He says, they got these firms. He said, this would be the number one. Williams and Conley. Yeah. Oh, Williams and Conley.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. They helped me. They helped me on a few of my cases. Man. Ocho. Yeah. It cost your boy a penny. Oh, yeah. Oh, you ain't got to tell me. You ain't got to tell me. But it wasn't about the money. I wasn't going to bow down. Because, you know, sometimes people try to put you in a pinch and think

Big Bang take little bank. I spent all my money. I was never going to apologize because I don't believe I did anything wrong. If I was wrong, if I say something and somebody like, OK, make the stand and she took what I said, she took it. It hurt. OK, I got no problem. Meg, I'm sorry.

That wasn't my intention. Intent don't matter because you were equally offended, even though that wasn't my intention. If I say something, the way I behaved at the Lakers game, I'm wrong. I'm wrong, dead ass. But I don't believe I defamed Brett. I don't. I wasamed Brett. I don't. I was offering a strong opinion on what was being reported.

Right. I mean, listen, everybody reported it. Why was he just solely focused on you is the question. You know why. But it is what it is. Okay. My bad. My bad.

I didn't mean to bring that up. My bad. It is what it is. But I'm glad. So all the people, Joe, everybody that handled it, they came in, they took all Ash emails

because she was my producer. My phone, they came and plugged that machine up to my phone and took everything off. Yeah. Everything. Yeah, I got one of them too. I got one of them at the high. I was like, I said, so what happened? happened I say I just want y'all to know

I'm about to own something if anything on this phone get out I'm about to own something I don't know what but I'm gonna own it yeah yeah yeah and like I say bro it was it's just it was just hopefully it's over I really do I hope it was it's just. It was just I'm just hopefully it's over.

I really do. I hope it's over. I wish nothing but the best. I heard that he's going to either tomorrow or next week. He's going before Congress and they're going to ask some questions about the funds. What he knew, how much he knew. When did he know? What did he know? And so I just like I just want the people of Mississippi to have their day in court. That was wrong for however it got out that the funds were misappropriated. And I just want the people of Mississippi to be made whole because that's the poorest state in the U.S.

Mississippi is the poorest they can ill afford to have any money slip through the cracks and go to people that didn't deserve it or didn't and that's that's bad and I just don't know you've heard me say it

I hate like I just want like people that can't help themselves i mean you talk about people making 10 and 15 20 000 a year and come on and i just i just feel i just i just feel bad look i'm for god you you bless me you you you've shown favor to me more than i probably deserve but everybody ain't like us, Ocho. Everybody's not going to play a number of years in the NFL or play a professional sport. Everybody's not going to have a job and be able to take care of their money, and when they retire, they good.

Everybody ain't going to be like that. And I just hate that the people of Mississippi, and I don't know why people would do that, but I'm just glad it's over. I wish Brett the best. I wish the people in Mississippi that they get their day and, and, and let justice be served. So that's, that's where I am on that. So I'm glad.

Thank you to my team at Williams and Conley. You guys did an unbelievable job. Luke Williams and Conley, I remember the boys. Listen, you know, I don't mean to be telling my personal business, and I had to work with them on a very high-profile case for myself. You know, I was going through a little rough time. So during that rough time, rough patch I was having, a couple of years ago, Williamson Conley helped me. You know, I was a mule for the cartel.

A lot of people don't know this story, but i can tell you their story you know um and you know i was you know doing doing doing trips here and there and i had to get on the road i had my cdl at the time and i was taking big loads i was taking big loads back and forth from from miami to houston and you know houston to texas down to mexico and and i got kind got kind of caught up. Williams and Conley came through for me, man. They were able to get me out of that. Ever since then, God has been good. That's all I can say. I don't want to get too much into it, but just know

God is good. I appreciate them. All right, Ocho, now it's time for Q and A. Boys, A is 1 o'clock you knew that? I did know that I gotta go to work in the morning

you see how hyped I am you know I took a nap early now I could talk for another 3 hours that's how I'm feeling and I got this list I got this rib Cody they don't pay us I can't mention them Ocho Cody Holrod said they don't pay us I can't mention them Cody Holrod

said Ocho looking like Frozen from The Incredible Samuel L. Jackson where's my super suit why come every time every time a black person has a bald head and got on glasses and a sweatsuit

they gotta be what you trying to say? Woman, where's my super suit? That was a good movie, though. Yeah, for sure. That was a good movie. Kevin Norwood Jr., my question

is, are the Jets going to make the playoffs or just me if they continue to play like this? They got 17. They're going to take 17 to the playoffs. Obviously, you're going to take your four division winners, and then you take your three wild cards. I think the Jets have a great chance of getting one. Could they beat Buffalo?

You believe they're going to win the division? You believe they're going to win the division? Me? Yeah. Me? Yeah. Me? Yeah. Absolutely. Okay.

But we don't know when Tua coming back, and we don't know what Tua we're getting when he does come back. I don't care how good a supporting cast is that's around him. What Tua are we getting back? That's all I want to know. Tyler Huntley. If Tyler Huntley's the quarterback. Right.

Now, I like Tyler Huntley. I think the numbers will suffer because Tyler Huntley, being that he's a dual-threat quarterback, I think he would run more as opposed to pass more and as opposed to sitting in the pocket. I think things are going to be different for the Dolphins and things are looking different for the Jets because now it's a different year. Last year, the Jets lost their quarterback, so Miami was on fire. This year, Miami lost their quarterback, and, the Jets lost their quarterback. So Miami was on fire. This year,

Miami lost their quarterback and now the Jets are on fire. And I'm looking at Buffalo. Buffalo, to me, offensively, don't have enough pieces to compete and put up as many points

as some of the other teams they're going to have to face. And one of those is the goddamn Jets that should have scored almost 40 tonight. They should have scored almost 40. I do think, I think the Jets are should have scored almost 40 tonight. They should have scored almost 40.

I do think the Jets are going to make the playoffs. So, Kemper, that's where I'm at on that. Ocho believes they'll win the division. I believe they'll make the playoffs. Daniel Quinn said, what's up, Uncle Ocho? What do y'all think the probability of Cam, Cam Newton,

returning to Carolina? Why would you put Cam in that situation? Hypothetically, Why would you put Cam in that situation? Hypothetically, why would you put Cam in that goddamn garbage? Even in the hypothetical situation. Don't do that. Don't do that. He can't save the day. He shouldn't have to play Superman.

Jesus himself, any of the 12 disciples couldn't come down and save the Carolina Panthers at the quarterback position. It's just not. Watch the game. I'm going to be at the game this Sunday in Las Vegas. On the field, field side. And I'm going to tell you, I'm going to come on the show

that night and I'm going to tell you this is the issue. This is what's wrong. Because I'm not watching from TV and I'm going to come on the show that night and I'm going to tell you this is the issue. This is what's wrong. Because I'm not watching from TV and I'm not telling you what I know. I'm telling you what I saw. Right. Corey Gibbs said, Ocho, did you trademark

the phrase kiss the baby? I absolutely did not. I surely did not I surely did not I did not franchise it no I didn't trademark not franchise Joe Schmo what's up Uncle Joe

we talking about comedy if you used to being the man and meet someone with kids how do you deal with it if it seems like you don't fit in? Whoa. What? What do you mean?

You don't have no kids, but she got kids? And you don't fit in. And you don't fit in? Fit out. Because you're used to feeling like the man because the women that don't have kids normally put you first.

You're right. That means that's not a situation for you, but I can tell you that. But when it comes to women with kids, I'm going to tell you about me. I ain't dating nobody without no kids. I've always been like that. Always. You got to have one, maybe two.

Or you can have three. Because I understand the type of snack that's going to be in the pantry. See, huh? You laughing. I ain't playing. For the dudes that's in the chat if you date single women that have no kids you ever notice you always got to take out the you ever notice she always want to put on looks and go places you'll never notice that you dated women with kids sometimes you know she'll cook for you sometimes after horizontal activity or at the horizontal activity or at the horizontal activity you go to the motherfucking pantry you grab your honey bun how you grab your

chocolate brownie you grab your oatmeal pie you get a capri sun like it's different dating a woman with kids she's a lot more she's a lot more structured and disciplined she's a little bit more responsible than the woman that don't have no kids, that's always out every goddamn weekend, and when you're calling the phone, she don't answer and pick up because she's with somebody else. Ah, come on, Ocho. See, we could have done without that, Ocho. I'm just trying to give it to him.

I'm just trying to give it to him raw. I mean, pause. Oh, Lord. What is with you? My bad. Yeah, I mean, just a while ago, you was carrying a load. I was like, come on, man. I was taking a load. I was like, oh, I didn't even hit you with it.

I just let that one slide. I said, I don't even want to talk about that one. My bad. My bad. I'm feeling good. I'm feeling good tonight. I think the thing is, Ocho, look, this is the one thing I know. My grandparents, it was my grandparents.

The kids ain't coming. Oh, I will put my kids first. Okay, put the kids first and see what happens. Made for This Mountain is a podcast that exists to empower listeners to rise above their struggles,

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 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, and hear how leaders like Angeli are carving out space and shaking things up a bit in the most crowded of markets.

Muhammad Ali was never afraid to express himself loudly and boldly and stays true to form in Ali and Me, an eight-part Audible original. Guided by his own words, this series explores Ali's life and legacy through never-before-heard audio recordings and discussions with those who knew him best. Muhammad had this real sense of his own personal values and principles, things he believed in, his own sense of conviction. Those convictions never wavered. Hosted by Muhammad's wife, Lani Ali, and his close friend, award-winning broadcaster, John Ramsey, Ali and Me goes beyond the boxing ring to delve deeply into Ali's extraordinary life

through conversations with Billy Crystal, Mike Tyson, Rosie Perez, Common, Will Smith, and Bob Costas. It created a North Star for me of how I want to be in the world, you know. As a child, as a young person, he gave credence to my audacity. There's no debate that this is the greatest global sports figure of our lifetime.

At the end of the day, you got to let him. And if you don't, if that's not what, if you want to be the man, don't invite somebody in if you're not going to let him be what he is. And me, I don't go in that situation if that's not what you're trying to be. You can't find a data woman with kids and

then get mad that she got kids because she's got to devote time to them. Yeah. I don't know the relationship she has with the kid's father and hopefully he's there. But she's got to devote some time. You can't

hog monopolize all of her time. That's all I'm saying, bro. But I get it. I get it. I've been very fortunate that when I've dated women with kids, they made me feel special. And I appreciate that. And like when you go into that situation, you do understand it's not

like you got to treat them as if they were your kids. That what I would do for my own kids, I would do for them. But you know what I like? If I date a woman with kids that when they ask for stuff it's normally for the kids I got a boy kid he need this

Hey, don't you tell your daddy that. Dr. Frank L. Bellamy, how you been, doc? How you been? They say fame can get you almost anything, but what's the one thing that fame has gotten you or can't buy? And how do you stay focused on what really matters? Oh. Bro.

You know, I like watches. Bro, them people at Padk and AP and for me, now, like some people, like, they like, like, and Rolex have like off-catalog stuff, stuff that they don't even offer, only the high-end people that spend $500 million, $5 million, you know, X amount of dollars.

It is what it is. Man, I call a place and they say say we sold out we don't have any more reservations oh well why don't you tell them who you were if they sold out me tell them who they are

what are they going to do move somebody they say they sold out I take them at their word look man I ain't talking about all that other stuff man it's okay take a bad word on you. I'm cool, man. I ain't talking about all that other stuff, man. It's okay. Hell, I really

didn't want to go anyway. To tell you the truth, I didn't. Right. Yeah. Mr. Sharpen, you know, we have a list and we'll see what we can do. Okay. It can happen. If it happens, it happens. If it doesn't, it doesn't. Right.

I don't lose no sleep one way or another. They're more important things than happens. Oh, well, but you know, I've been trying to get a couple of watches. They say it might take two to three years. I'm like, okay, I'll wait two to three years. Oh, shoot. Hold on. Hold on.

Shoot. I got some resources. I got some resources. I got some connections. I can expedite the process. Now, when you get it, it might not be ticking, but you had it month long. It's all

good, man. If it's meant to be, I've met some people that have helped me get some pieces that I would have probably had to wait a little bit longer for. But if it's meant to be, it's meant to be. If it's not a guy, they want me to have it at that time. And he didn't put me in position to get it. I'm OK with that.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You're right. You're right. You're right. As a door, D, say, OK, no, today is my 34th birthday. It'll be an honor and a privilege. I can get a happy birthday shout out.

Also, quick question. Which top three coaches are on the hot seat if their team missed the playoff? Okay. As a door, happy 34th birthday. Happy birthday. Hope you had a great day. Enjoy today and many, many more like today. Hopefully you're surrounded by family, friends, and loved one,

and they show you the true meaning of what it's like to have you in their life and likewise. The top three coaches on the hot seat. Robert Sala. He's going to be good. Hold on. AFC. C. AFC let's see let's see

AFC East oh Sean McDermott he might be on the hot seat even if they make the playoffs Buffalo they better go far in the playoffs they want to change the scenery AFC South Buffalo, they better go far in the playoffs. They want to change the scenery.

AFC South. What do you think about, you think Doug Peterson on the hot seat in the South? In Jacksonville? Yeah. I don't know. I don't know. Hell, I put Dave Kanellis on the goddamn hot seat, too,

because that's why he made the guy... Yeah, he just got there! So did Frank Wright. That's the reason why he made that switch so early. Damn! I'm telling you. I'm telling you that's the reason why he made the switch so early. Uh-uh.

I'm going to nip this in the bud right now. You know what's going to happen? They're going to go to Andy Dalton. Nothing's going to turn around. Then they're going to go back to Bryce Young. I'm telling you, chat, I'm telling you what's going to happen. Andy's not going to be able to do nothing. They're going to have to go back to Bryce Young.

The man, don't know, you'll see. What about the Giants head coach, Brian Dayball? Hey, I mean, listen, in the perfect situation, the phrase players get coaches fired, I wouldn't be surprised because Daniel Jones right now coming off of last year, based on what he's

done so far this year, shit, he might not make it to the bye week. Man, I mean, talking about sean payton man sean pay they owe sean well look they got the money the walton pender family that purchased the broncos uh he's the wealthiest owner in the nfl worth uh over 70 billion so 60 million ain't nothing to him nothing at all nothing that's one percent um But it's not so much losing, it's how they

lose. Yeah. That's the thing. I think with ownership and be looking at it, but I think it's how they're losing. And it's going to be interesting to see if the Broncos can turn it around. Scott Williams, Uncle Nocho, please

that share the same building. So that's three teams. Could they possibly hold up? You got 40 million people, so theoretically you could. But I don't know if expanding, maybe a team relocates, but I don't think anybody's looking to relocate. But I

definitely wouldn't. I wouldn't know. Oh, Joe. Yeah. Lil said, what's up, Unc? We are on the yard at Howard waiting. That's what I'm talking about, bro. I can't wait. We got HBCU tour kicks off tomorrow at Howard University.

I've heard great things about Howard, and I can't wait to see the campus tomorrow. I know it's going to be a buzzing. It's going to be electric. I believe everybody, every person should at least have to go one semester to an HBCU. And it needs to be in the fall so you can see the pageantry.

You can see homecoming. You can see the students that are buzzing. You can see the saras and the prats on the yard stepping, doing what they do. That's an unbelievable experience, and I'm glad I got an opportunity to experience that at Savannah State. But I'm so excited
