Sriracha. yeah yeah yes sir racha ocho wow that's a nice shot lonzo ball recently admitted that the big baller brand sneakers he wore his rookie season could have contributed to the left knee issues that sidelined him for 1009 days ball told espn that the first version of the big baller brand sneakers were comparable to kickball shoes lonzo suffered his first meniscus injury in january of 2018

and he could not help but wonder if triple b's played a part i think it's a possibility for sure to be honest with you i wasn't really getting hurt like that until I started wearing them. Nah. Uh-uh. I'm not buying that. I'm not buying that the structure and the design of a shoe is the reason why you have injuries. When it comes to all shoes, they're all designed and structured in the same way to be able to do the same thing, especially when it comes to all shoes they're all designed and structured in the same way to be able to do the same thing especially when it comes to playing the game of basketball i'm not putting that on those shoes absolutely not well some people well some people oh joe you have you have you got some people that are flat-footed you got some people that have high arches you have some people that have narrow foot feet they have some people that have wide feet and just because everybody everybody

is not going to get the same benefit out of wearing a nike as they would because maybe nike fits differently maybe adidas fit differently puma sketches whatever the case may be this is your brand though your brand so obviously the shoe that you wear specialized for you is going to put it's going to be be um what's the word i'm looking for it's going to be fit for your word I'm looking for? It's going to be fit for your foot. Ocho, do you think they had the kind of money to do R&D? Research and development?

To structure a shoe straight? Oh, have mercy, Ocho. Do you know how much these companies put into R&D? Do you have any idea? Yeah, because I used to have a shoe. Do you understand? So you think a shoe a guy said you know what i got a son going to the nba i think i'm gonna come out with a shoe so how much money 50 million 100 million 500 million how much money

you think they put invested into that shoe i mean oh that's you know that's a good question i'm not sure no no no. Speculate. Give me an example. R&D, research and development. We're going to design a shoe. We're going to cast a mold. We're going to fit it. You do realize how long it takes because the Air Max, you think the Air Max just, okay, you know what?

I like the Air Max. Let's do the Air Max. Which one? 95? 95? 95. You take the Air Max 1s. You can take the 95 max ones you can take the 95 you can take the 97 you take any shoe that you want right it takes time for a shoe to come from a vision to being able to put on somebody's feet and somebody wear it right yeah i understand what you mean but just

they're just the thought even even if there was no, what do you call it, R&D? Yeah, research and development. Yeah, we need to put out the research and development to say, oh, well, the reason for my knee injury is because of the shoe I was wearing. Like, come on. He said it could be a possibility, Ocho. And it could. No, man, hell no, man.

No, no, let's not blame the shoe. No. What you going to blame it on, Ocho? I mean, there are a lot of gonna blame it on, Ocho? I mean, there are a lot of people that change shoes, Ocho. There are a lot of people that change shoes. Your body, genetics, you know. But he had never been injured before.

He telling me the goddamn shoes I'm wearing is the reason you missed a thousand-something games. Hell no. Ocho, you do realize, like, the feet, everything leads up, so knees I mean your ankles, your hips your knees, everything is impacted

and maybe the shoe, the way the shoe was constructed man listen Lonzo, that's my dog man but nah, we ain't doing that, man I hoop in motherfucking chucks man, so I ain't nah, hell nah yeah, you did once I ain't, no, hell no. Yeah, you did once upon a time.

How many people you see playing in Chucks now? Hey, can I tell you something? Yeah. Just real quick. I'm not even joking. I know y'all think I play a lot. There's footage. I think I scored maybe 17 points.

There was a celebrity basketball game in philly with with gilly uh jerron ennis boots jerron boots ennis uh it was it was fun it was very competitive and i played in chucks full speed high tops you know and i'm just and i was able to move and maneuver and then in my lateral movement and i'm taking people off the dribble and you know jumping and shoot it you know i like so i'm like I'm like Chuck Taylor is a great shoe for lifting weights because of the flat sole. But maybe and maybe that's why we saw a lot of guys that have foot problems when they wore Chuck Taylor's. That ever thought that ever crossed your mind? Yes. You know, it's hard for me.

You know why it's hard for me to even understand or really can't even fathom the shoes being the reason? Because my black ass ain't never been hurt. So it's hard for me to kind of have any type of sympathy or really empathize with the fact that he's saying the fact that maybe the structure of the

shoe is the reason why I had... Noted. Possible. Okay, it's a possibility. I had, you know, noted. Possible. Okay. Okay, it's a possibility. I know the percentage, the percentage of that possibility is extremely goddamn low.

Well, he didn't say it did. He said it may have contributed. So we'll leave it at that.

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's 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 I can't wait. Since you're allergic to shellfish, what is the one dish you always look forward to when visiting New Orleans, Ocho? What's your go-to dish when you're in the Big Easy? Definitely gumbo. What's the name of that place that we went to? Remember we went down to New Orleans and we went to that place?

Twisted Waffle. That's where we went. Man, they got so many different kinds of waffles. Right. You know what? It's been so long since I've been to New Orleans. I can't remember the name of the spot, but I know when I do

get there, I got to get my beignets. Oh, yeah. Oh, so you want to go to Cafe Du Monde? Yeah, Cafe Du Monde. That's one of them. I got to get my beignets. I don't want all that powder sugar on top, though. Yeah, just light. I tell them light sugar.

Yeah, man. But you got to eat them when they're hot, though, Ocho. Yeah, you got to. You got to. I mean, anything else is unsimilized, huh? And I tell you what, I ain't a big you look a lot of people like that king cake it's too sweet for me yeah yeah yeah you know can i tell you something real quick a quick story yeah go ahead why and why i'm excited about going to new orleans and i want i might get there even earlier than i'm supposed to i don don't know. I don't know how long we'll, Unc, you will know. Maybe some people in the chat, chat, I don't know if you

guys remember the homeless man that I had, like, Unc, I swear for God, it might've been, we had maybe a three-year run. His name is Porkchop. And I mean, Ash, Ash, if you could hear me, look up, look up me and Porkchop. When I tell you me and this homeless dude, he came and he came and bothered me at Davis Cafe one day on South Beach and asked me to buy him a beer. I went and bought him a case of beer, but I made him sit and eat with me. And we sat there and we ate and we talked and I asked him about his story and how did you become homeless and what you're doing out here in Miami. And he was from New Orleans. When I swear for God, I tell you no lie,

me and Porkchop, and some people in the chat might know this story, me and Porkchop hung out every single day for a damn minute, two years straight. I got him cleaned up,

bought him clothes, had him stand at the big, I had him stand at the big house, you know, back in the day. And I tried to do everything I can to help him and save him, but he didn't have the resources, you know? Right. And so I know, back in the day. And I tried to do everything I can to help him and save him, but he didn't have the resources, you know? Right.

And so I know he was getting a check somehow. I don't know how he was getting a damn check, but he got on the goddamn bus and left New Orleans, man. And that shit hurt me so bad, man. So I'm hoping when I'm in New Orleans... You run into him. Yeah, I got to find him. People on Twitter that live in New Orleans

always see him on Canal Street. He's still homeless. He's not doing as well as he was once I got a hold of him. So I'm really looking forward, man, to finding Porkchop and maybe hoping to clean him up again and maybe have him come to the live show or something, man.

I miss him. Ash, if you look it up, Ash, you'll see the story. Yeah, she found it. Yeah, she found the story. Hey, when I tell you, every day for two years straight, like, you know, I don't have no entourage. I don't hang with nobody. So it was easy for me to become, you know,

become friends with him and go places. We go eat everywhere. We went to King of Diamonds. I took him to King of Diamonds. I had him fresh. It's a picture of him online and he's dancing on a stripper right and it's another picture where he's not used to seeing that much money so instead of throwing the money at the women what you think he's doing with the money he grabbed and put in his pocket oh he's stashing all the money in his pocket, man.

I'm like, child, you just got to throw it to the women. I'll take care of you after this. Yeah, just have some fun. You're like, ah, man, fuck that. This shit going. God damn poor child, man. Nikki said, Shannon, can you please tell all these young'uns why Sterling Sharp deserves to be in the Hall of Fame?

I think the thing is, for the most part, Ocho, is a lot of people didn't see my brother play. But in that, he was a triple crown winner. He's one of six guys to lead the league in catches, touchdowns and reception. I mean, yards. He led the league in catches three times. He led the league in touchdowns, no, he led the league in catches three times, led the league in touchdowns twice, led the league in yards once. And you see those numbers in seven seasons. That's what he did.

So he led the league in catches three times in seven seasons, led the league in touchdowns. You can see right there, three-time first-team All-Pro, five-time Pro Bowler, 65 touchdowns. That's right there three time first team all pro five time pro bowl to 65 touchdowns that's seven seasons seven now go back and look at he retired at 29

go back and look at Antonio Freeman's look at Robert Brooks numbers those next three to four years that they played with Brett and and I think Antonio Freeman, he went to the, we played against him in Super Bowl here in Brooks. And this is not a slight on them. They weren't Sterling Sharp.

The year that he played, the only receiver that you could say, okay, he was better than my brother was Jerry. And he was right there. Go look at the numbers. Jerry's numbers for seven years that my brother played from 80, from 88 to 94. And compare anybody else's numbers, all the receivers,

that's whatever that's in the hall of fame. Look at their numbers from 88 to 94. Look at my brothers and look at Jerry's. No. From 88 to 94. Look at my brothers and look at Jerry Snow. So, we hoping he made it to the finals this year. That would be probably... I've had some great moments in my professional career, my personal career.

I don't know, man. This would be it for me, man. This is, this will be it for me, man. This will be, this will be, yeah, man. This will be, I ain't really got to, if I don't even see,

if I don't see 57, to see my brother go into the Hall of Fame. Yeah, that'd be live, boy. That's it for me. I would have lived a full life. Yeah, everything coming full circle. Yeah, everything coming full circle. He led the league in receptions

89, 92, 93. He's the first to go back to back with over 100 catches. Two-time touchdown. In his last six games that he played in his career he caught 13 touchdowns um led the league in uh touchdowns twice 92 94 led the league in catches i mean uh in yardage i think in 92. But, you know, sometimes that happens. But I got an opportunity to play 14 years,

and he got an opportunity. He had the best seat in the house. So we won three Super Bowls. We went to the Pro Football Hall of Fame, and he got an opportunity to see that. So he's been by my side every major event that I've had happen in my life. My brother's been a part

of it. And so to be, to get an opportunity to potentially be there, to see him get that call, and to see him go into the Pro Football Hall of Fame, man, it wouldn't get any better than that. that's for damn sure

that's life life's lesson says what's up guys what do you think prime would have more difficult time guarding on first and goal at the eight yard line or all three of you guys are in your prime oh he's gonna put the clamps on Ocho cause Ocho ain't physical

enough he already told you, Ocho. What are you going to do to you? I don't need to be physical. That wasn't even part of my game is the fact that I was so goddamn cacked quick. There's nothing he would be able to do because he ain't even quick as me.

He just fast. There's a difference. You need to understand skill set. That's all right. Prime got something for you yeah I hope so yeah Prime can't do nothing with me except catch a catfish man

that's it yeah I need to go down there and beat him in his own pond you don't like that I don't got the patience for fishing man I do I ain't got the patience for fishing either I got the patience to beat him that's what't got the patience to fish it either. I got the patience to beat him. That's what I got the patience to do.

Beat him. Patterson Yazzie said, Chad, should I shoot my shot? I'm nervous. I haven't asked anyone out on a date in forever any advice. I think this girl is sending me signals or am I just delusional? Have been single for years.

Damn, bro. 10. Bro, I've been there 10 years of a long time. Yeah. A decade. Yeah. Fuck, man. Hey, I'm honestly, I'm sick of these breakups, man. Hey, I'm honestly, I'm sick of these breakups, man.

It happened, though, Chosha. Man, I mean. It don't have to happen. We need to find a solution on how to fix this stuff. Well, that's why people that's been married for an extremely long time, they choose to stay married.

Because it's just as easy to stay married as it is to break up. Wait a minute. Hold on. Hold on. People choose to... People choose to stay married. You got to... Because you work through whatever problem that may arise, Ostro, you work through it. Or you attempt to work through it. You don't say f it at the first

sign of trouble like the first time where there's a disagreement now people just say hey man i'll start all over there's somebody better than me i ain't finna do this well let me write that down and write that down but i'm gonna tell i'm gonna take this to my therapist yeah i like i like I like that. I like that. I like that. Matter of fact, hold on. I got something I want to tell you too.

Now that you're on that topic, I had something I had to tell you. It was real good too. Hey, young dude, 10 years. Hey Young dude 10 years And now y'all no longer together, right?

Mm-hmm Always remember The game ends When the king fails Not when a pawn takes your queen or when the queen leaves. A man doesn't lose value because a woman has betrayed him. She only removed herself from the game. The king always moved with strategy, not emotion.

Now you take with that what you will. It's a little poem I wrote back in back in 92. And it still resonates today. I think Ocho is just here's the thing with relationships. It's always tough. The breakup is always tough. Yeah. If you're not the one that wants to get broken up with.

See, if you want to do the breaking up, it's easy. Hey, I'm done. This ain't working for me. But when you want to be that. Right. But at the end of the day, if they're not trying to hear that, I'm not going to beg you. Yeah. Be with me.

Right, right, right, right. Now, listen, I ain't going to run after you. I might jog a little bit. yeah yeah yeah i might i might i might speed walk you know but hey it's it's it's we talked about it last night but with with jr you know you know that there are times and that that pain and being in that fetal position and understanding that hurt that comes yeah for sure something that was a intricate part of your daily routine and and and having that having that gone it's it's it's it's it can be rough it can be rough regardless how tough and i don't care how much pride and how much ego you got, you know,

Hey, well, I don't wish that. I don't wish that pain on nobody, man. Oh, Joe, if it doesn't hurt, you didn't care enough.

I'm not telling what somebody told me. I'm telling you what I know because I invest a lot in whatever I do. So that's why when I lost, it hurt me. That's why I had to go home. I couldn't be around people because I know what I put into that game. Not just the game that week, but I know what I did that

offseason. When you're in a relationship and you know what you put into it to make this work and all of a sudden it doesn't and that person doesn't want to be with you, that is hurt. Hey, you know what? The most important part you just said

is the fact that you invest in something and you don't get the return on said investment, you can't get that back, and then that individual doesn't want to be with you anymore and then you start you know then you start questioning yourself so i'm looking in the mirror well shit what the fuck wrong with me look at me look at this who don't like this chocolate and and what hurts sometimes oh joe oh talk to me now. Is that as this thing is starting to fray, they give you the worst of themselves, but immediately

give somebody else the best of themselves. Ocho, I ain't doing it. Ocho, stop. Ocho, I'm done. I'm done, Ocho. I'm done. Hey, I'm done with this. I'm done. Let's just move on. Ocho, let's just move on. Let's just move on, Ocho. Let's move on. Boy,'s move on boy you talking tonight

you talking tonight so when things are ending they give you the worst of themselves and give the new person the benefit of the doubt and they get the best version of them oh boy if you had an all-in,

I'd give you $100 right now, boy. If you had an all-in right now, you could have my whole savings account, boy. Bro, hey, look. Well, you appreciate it. Ocho, I know I joke a lot, but I've spent a lot of time by myself and analyzing. I'm very self-analytical. I look at it and, and, and, but I've had, I spent a lot of time by myself and analyzing. I'm very self analytical.

I look at it and I analyze things and I see things for what they truly are. But come on, come on, Creflo shark. They call me Creflo. No dollars, but, but,

but that, that, I think that's what really hurts. Yeah. And that's why, like a lot of times, like when you leave a relationship, you really have to,

you really have to like, let it go. You have to like, I don't, you know, I, I can't follow because I, I,

I, I've been that old joke. I know because I've broken up with people and gave them the worst of me and immediately gave somebody else the best. I've done it because I'm not telling you what somebody's told you, told me. I'm telling you what I know. And I'm telling you how human nature is.

And so that's and I remember and I'm thinking to myself, the way you are now, Shannon, why couldn't you be like that then? Take your time. It's tough, boy. It's tough. It's tough, man.

I remember it like yesterday. Come on. Take your time. I mean, look, and this is really the first time. I remember my homeboy. He called. He said, homeboy, how you doing? I said, man, I ain't good. He said, homeboy. He said, I know

you will never you would never ask me to but if you need me to I'll call on your behalf when somebody when somebody that's close to you and they say I'm willing to extend myself I'm willing to extend my

name on behalf of you and then my sister I remember talking to my sister and she would always send me things every morning every morning when I wake up because obviously she's on the east coast I'm in LA so by

the time I get up at you know I was getting up because I had to be to work at 4, Ocho. So I'm getting up at 3, 15 because I got to take the dogs out, let them do what they need to do. I need to take a shower and I need to get to work. So she would always send me these things. And I remember getting home

and I was about to go to bed. I was about to take a nap after the show. And I remember she called me and she said, how you doing? I said, I'm all right. I said, I'm all right, but she said how you doing I said I'm alright I said I'm alright but she said Shannon

it was quiet she said she said how long you been Shannon I said all my life she said how long you been Shannon I said all my life she said you been big you been strong you been resilient you been loving you been caring

cause this woman exited your life you still gonna be Shannon don't let this situation change you you're still gonna be my baby brother and I'm still gonna love you and it was obviously my homeboys Bucket and Burns

they called and they checked on me but it was my brother and sister because they're like my mother and father even though we brothers and sisters is the relationship that we have. I remember, and this when it really dawned on me, Ocho, that I was really in a dark place. Yes, sir. And my brother

has never said this before, and he's never said this to me since. Take your time. He said, if you need me, I'll come out there. I'm a... At the time, how old am I? I'm a at the time how old am I 2006 so I'm 48

yeah 48, 49 about to be 40, I was 49 he said if you need me I'll come out there that's when it really dawned on me i was like damn he really worried yeah my brother really he had never shown me now i know later after talking to him he's been other situations that he's been worried about me but he never but he never let me know that he was worried that was the first time in 49 years that i could see i could tell that he was worried. That was the first time in 49 years

that I could see, I could tell that he was worried. Man, I remember as I was thinking, I was like, man, what the heck? Oh, you snapped up at her? Called my sister. I said, hey, I'm good. Told my brother, I say hey I'm good told my brother

I said I'm good how long it took though how long it took Mark it took me a while Ocho this happened uh we were talking about November, December, January, February, March

it took me about 6-7 months though god damn it did Ocho. It did. It did. But. Hey. Sunshine follows rain, Ocho.

I'm better for it. As I look back, there are some things that I could, I wouldn't have had I not had I not, did that relationship not dissolve? I'm not here because I turned away a lot of things. Right. Because I didn't want to be away from home because I didn't want to be away from her because, you know, she. Well, I need to go make, you know, I'm turning down 50, 75 thousand dollar gig because he's not comfortable.

People have what he's why does he want to be with you? She started to believe like, yeah, why do you want to be with me? You're this and you can have this, that, that. I factored all that in when I decided to be with you. Come on, man. Did you not think about that then? Why is it an issue now? What is the appreciation?

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...

Please do. To hear the whole story, listen to Fiasco, Iran Contra on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Stop worrying about why i chose you i did why is unimportant right because in this situation situation, Ocho, yeah, I'm who I am and you are who you are, but should I not love you just the same? Should I feel differently because you don't have this name, you don't have this title?

I was confused about why she felt that way. Why? I hate when women ask me, you can have anybody, why me? you know what now that I think about it I probably should go try to find one of them antibodies and leave you to F alone because you're unsure of yourself

which is going to make you unsure of us and then long as there's doubt in your mind you're never going to be able to fully give yourself to me but like you just said earlier God don't make no mistakes. Hey, 1987, Chad, will you grow your hair back? Love you guys, man.

Thanks for all the relationship and financial advice. I mean, what I will do as far as growing my hair back, if I go into campus, I'll be on campus about three months. I'm looking forward to beating the shit out of Keith Lee. I'm not sure we can schedule that fight,

but when I do go into a fight camp, I will grow my hair out. Won't cut it. Looks scruffy. I won't cut it till fight night. So at whatever point this comes into fruition, because he done wrote a he done

wrote a check his ass can't cash yeah but you know sometimes oh joe when you're dealing with when you're dealing with situations and we'll get back to this yeah those shoes is that a lot of times it's the outside because when i was in college all her girlfriends was in her ear right oh he ain't i was like do you understand right why are you over Oh, he ain't.

you know what's funny is the one doing all the talking or why you with him you ever noticed they always single yes or notice they don't never have nobody or they bounce from pillar to post or they bouncing from dick to dick but they want you in the same situation

they in? Yes. No consistency. Nobody you can depend on consistently. Come hell or high water, you know, well, you know what?

I know he always going to be there for me no matter what. And guess what? While they talk about I don't know why, I guarantee you know what? I know he always going to be there for me no matter what. And guess what? While they talk about, I don't know why, I guarantee you right now they'll switch positions with you. But they don't know why you want to be with

him, but they'll switch positions with you and be with him. I don't know why women like that. I ain't never been in no situation. Hey, bro, that's who you want to be with? Take off. Yeah. Yeah. Enjoy it. Enjoy it. Enjoy it. Enjoy it. I ain't never been in no situation. Hey, bro, that's who you want to be with? Take off. Yeah.

Yeah. Enjoy it. Enjoy it. Enjoy it. Enjoy it. I ain't going to let you. I ain't going to let you. I ain't going to let you, you know, mess over my boy.

Now, if I see something, oh, I'm telling. You got to say something. You got to say something. You can't. Don't do it. Don't be talking about it. It ain't what you think. It's exactly what I think.

So whatever you think, I think I'm thinking. That's what I'm thinking. I'm going to tell him. That's what I think. It's exactly what I think. So whatever you think I think I'm thinking, that's what I'm thinking and I'm going to tell him that's what I thought. Yeah. Don't leave me blind. Don't leave me blind. Don't do that. Yeah. I never.

Switching shoes regularly. Those straight tracks. Look, I bought a pair of the big ballers because I'm a support. I'm a LeVar fan. I bought a pair too. I love the fact that the way he... I love the way the fact that he came for his boys. I love the fact that he and his wife, Tina,

he's been rock solid. She went through her medical issue. He was right there by her side. He never wavered. And he loves his family. And I can respect that and I can appreciate that. At the end of the day, Ocho,

the mind of... Lonzo, I think Zo really feel that that might have had an impact on his career. It might have prohibited him from becoming what he could have become. Because Ocho, three years is a long time away from especially a professional sport

that's a long long time hey um we know you're a busy man you too Ocho but on your days off from first take do you stay tuned in to some of the hot debates or watch any no I don't I don't watch it I don't watch I don't watch it. I don't watch.

I don't watch any of that. I do not. Because you got to think about it. We, Ocho and I, we go five days a week. I'm doing two days a week of first take. And sometimes I take two episodes of club.

Shay, Shay, the days that I'm off, I'm looking at stuff that we could possibly talk about. Right. Oh, nightcap. I'm looking at stuff that we could possibly talk about on nightcap. I'm trying to find out, okay, who do I think my listening audience,

my viewing audience would like to see me sit down and have a conversation with. So I don't know. I don't watch. I don't watch. I don't watch any. If it's not a sporting events. No, I don't watch any debate.

I don't watch first take when I'm not old. I don't watch first take when I'm not old I don't watch anything else when I'm not old I'm just trying to be the best I possibly can I know what's expected of me when I show up I know what Stephen A you know gave me the opportunity I'll I'm forever indebted to him for that

but I know what they expect to get from me and I'm not going to disappoint them but that's how I am even when my time was But I know what they expect to get from me. And I'm not going to disappoint them. But that's how I am. Even when my time was... Because when we first started, they used to have somebody to fill in us undisputed. And then we just went totally dark.

I didn't watch. I didn't watch. But... Darkmore said, Detroit probably has the best team in the NFC, if not the NFL. How scary could it have been if Hutchinson hadn't gotten hurt?

Yeah. Hutch was good. Very good. Very, yeah. But he's on his way to being, you know... He was, you know... He had, what, six sacks in the first four or five games? He was on his way to being a serious defensive player of the year candidate.

And hopefully he can come back next year 100% healthy and pick up where he left off. But they're getting great production from Z, Z'Darrius Smith. Z'Darrius is a professional go-get-the-quarterback guy. That's what he is. He can rush from either side. He got great moves. He got great tenacity. I's what he is. He can rush from either side. He's got great moves. He's got great tenacity. I like

Z a lot. Hopefully, they can put it together, but that back end is going to have to get a little better, Ojo, because you don't want... Here's the thing with it. You can't let it come down to a call

one way or another and have it impact the game. Right. When you leave it, when you, a, when you leave it, it's a three point game or it's a five point game or you down and you try to

get the ball back. The last thing you want to do is to do something dumb. That's the last thing that you want to do, but they look good right now they look really good Kipper Norwood Jr. said if the Bears need a coach I think it should be Ben Johnson because he's a great one

you like Ben going into the division? Yeah I like Ben you know listen if you can't get Ben Shanahan is the next big thing you know I think Ben can do wonders for Caleb Williams. He can do wonders for DJ Moore and Keenan Allen. And again, with his creativity and having DeAndre Swift.

I'm not saying DeAndre is Jameer Gibbs in Montgomery, but he's good. He's good at what he does at the running back position. He can catch out the backfield as well. So with Ben Johnson's creativity, I think they will be just fine. Or Shanahan, either one. You can't go wrong either way. Right. NFL Matchup Highlights said,

What's up, Uncle Nocho? Just want to say thanks for the shout out. I made the video edit of Sterling versus Deion, and I saw you guys posted on Nightcap IG story. I feel like I made it. Appreciate that, bro. Did a great job of that. My brother obviously

has the ultimate respect. He's a year old. He got into the league at 89. Time came in at 90. They had some great matchups. Time has always had a fondness for my brother. He's always appreciated

his work ethic and how he played, how he approached the game. My brother feels the exact same way. It's always great when I see those guys get together and reminisce about the battles that they had. But it's great.

That's one thing I can say about Tom. Like, I know him on a different level. And it's funny how people perceive him. And then when you know him on a different level, it's funny. But, yeah, I appreciate that man we appreciate that and thanks for letting us use it Marcos Angeles said hey

Thank you for your support. Thanks for watching. Thanks for listening. Yeah, 31. Keep living.

Now, the thing is, you need to be a better man you were today than you were yesterday. And so when we have this conversation next year or five years from now, I want you to be able to tell me how you've improved as a man, both professionally and individually and that

you're exactly where you thought you would be. No, as a matter of fact, you're further than you thought you would be because that's what progress is about. Congratulations. Happy birthday. Happy 31st birthday, man. That's it, O Ocho that is it what's that conclude that concludes this episode of nightcap thank you guys for watching us after Thursday night football game as you watch the Detroit

Lions beat the Green Bay Packers their division rivals by the score of 34-31. The Lions are now 12-1. The Packers fall to 9-4. But it was a very good ballgame. I think everybody got something out of this ballgame. I think this is a far cry from some of the Thursday night games that we've had in the past. But this was a very good ballgame.
