As Bill Belichick talks to North Carolina about possibly becoming the next head coach at Chapel Hill, Belichick spoke more about the situation on Let's Go podcast.
Starting point is 00:04:09 Asked by Jim Gray about abandoning the pursuit of the all-time wins record held by Don Shula, Belichick says, I don't have any set goals. I'm open to different opportunities going forward. I'll just evaluate them as they come. He characterized the UNC talks as exploratory, with the possibility of becoming something more than that. I think it's a process of just understanding what mutual goals, expectations, and resources are to find out whether it's a fit.
Starting point is 00:04:36 And in the process, we'll just see how it goes. He didn't rule out returning to the NFL. Belichick girlfriend supports the move to Chapel Hill. And I don't support it. As a colleague, as a colleague of Bill Belichick on Inside the NFL, Wednesdays at 9 p.m. on the CW. I'm going to just throw that plug out there for those that don't know. That's a plug out there. Belichick and our colleagues.
Starting point is 00:05:00 Wednesday, again, Inside the NFL on the CW at 9 p.m. I don't like the move. I don't like the move. I don't like the move. Because if Bill Belichick decides to go to Chapel Hill, I think it maybe does nothing for him as a legendary coach that he already is. If anything, I would love to see him transition back into the NFL, obviously to get that Don Shuler record, which I talked about not long ago, maybe two or three nights ago,
Starting point is 00:05:24 if I'm not mistaken. Going to college, I mean, it's cool. But with the way the landscape of college is now, with the NIL money and some teams being at a disadvantage when it comes to competing at the highest level, I don't think Bill should have to go through that. I don't think he should.
Starting point is 00:05:40 And I don't think, I personally don't think it's a good move. I personally would love Bill to stay with us at inside the NFL and when the opportunity presents itself in the NFL then transition into that if that team has a good adequate quarterback that you know you can win with and then that team organization will give you the keys to allow you to build the offense that excuse me to allow you to build the offense that, excuse me, to allow you to build the defense that you know you need to compete at the highest level. Just, and eventually get that Don Shuler record, you know, as the most winning coach of all time.
Starting point is 00:06:15 That's my two cents. It's how I feel. I'm sure Billy's going to see this. Well, for me personally, I don't think if he wasn't interested, he wouldn't have wasted his time. So clearly he's interested in coaching. Well, and he doesn't want he doesn't want another situation where all these jobs became available and he didn't get one. Oh, Joe.
Starting point is 00:06:35 I mean, come on. I think about that. Oh, Joe. You're the all you're like number two on the all time willingness coach. You got the most playoff wins of the coach. You got the most you got the most Super Bowl wins as a head coach. And the job's open. And you don't get one?
Starting point is 00:06:51 He's been coaching for 57, 37 years. So let me ask you a question. So it's okay to take one year off? One year off ain't going to hurt? It wasn't his choice. No job was offered. Now, I'm not telling you what somebody told me. I'm telling you what I know.
Starting point is 00:07:05 That's why he went on interviews. Who goes on a job interview if you're not interested in the job? Is that what you do? When they call you for Inside the NFL, you're not interested in that job. You're like, nah, I'm good. Oh, you went on the interview wanting to get the job, yes?
Starting point is 00:07:19 Yeah, sometimes. Sometimes you know what you do, right? You know what I used to do back in the day, right? You turn the stove on. You put the hot comb on the stove. Sometimes you gotta touch you do, right? You know, when I used to do hair back in the day, right? You know, you turn the stove on. You put the hot comb on the stove. Sometimes you got to touch the stove to check the temperature. All you're doing is checking. But you didn't do that unless you were doing somebody's hair. You didn't put the hot comb on the stove if nobody was coming over to get their hair done.
Starting point is 00:07:36 All right. Okay. I'm just making sure. Just making sure we're on the same page. I'm going to let you have that one. You got this one. You got this one. You got this one.
Starting point is 00:07:46 I think at the end of the day, look, the man the man wants to coach yeah that's what he's done he's done that for the better part of his life it's not easy it's not easy because a lot of times we see got we see people work these jobs oh and they start to deteriorate as they leave because that's all they know. And somebody said, well, it's the right thing for you to do. No, coach until you don't want to coach anymore. If somebody gives you a job, go coach. Now, sometimes, Ocho, you might have to go the college route to go back. Pete Carroll.
Starting point is 00:08:19 Pete Carroll was an NFL head coach. Nobody would hire him. He had to go to USC in order to go to Seattle. Right. was the NFL head coach. Nobody would hire him. He had to go to USC in order to go to Seattle. And maybe Coach Belichick might have to go to a UNC or wherever the case may be for a year or two in order to get back. But he's too close to the
Starting point is 00:08:35 all-time record to like, nah, I'm good. I don't care what anybody says. People are competitive. Especially with milestone records. It's just the way it is. And you don't get to that level. Nobody has ever achieved anything without being competitive because life is a competition. Whether you're an actor, you're a musician, you're a chef, it doesn't matter.
Starting point is 00:09:06 You want to be the best. And the likelihood, if he gets this record, I don't know. I don't know if Andy's going to have enough years to coach to catch it. Right. Who's going to coach long enough to catch it and to win like he's won? Because think about it. There was a 20-year stretch there with him and Tom. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:27 They had one season, I think, after they won the Super Bowl in 01. Yes, sir. They went like, they were 8-8. Other than that, there was 10-6,
Starting point is 00:09:34 11-5, 12-4, 13-3, 14-2. But 20 years. Yeah. Yeah. I don't know if anybody
Starting point is 00:09:44 will break that record and so I think he's going to want I think he wants it I think he wants to get it and I don't blame him I don't blame him but you got to go to the right situation or you'll be coaching 10 years
Starting point is 00:09:58 it'll take you 10 years to break it yeah listen I'm excited for him I'd have kept Tom Brady just to break it yeah i'm listen i'm excited for him you know whatever he wants to tell out of camp tom brady just to break it i like yeah hey hey hey bob and robert uh yeah we're gonna keep time for number two three more years and get the record but hey who knows tom was probably fed up he's like hey y'all should extend to me when y'all wanted to be extended. Now something else interests me. Hey,
Starting point is 00:10:26 it's kind of like a relationship. Oh, Joe. Sometimes, Hey, you get ready to leave. Now the party wants to treat you good. Nah, you had a chance to treat me good for five,
Starting point is 00:10:34 six, 10 years. Yeah. I don't make my mind up. Yeah. That's it. That's how it be sometime. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:40 Yeah. I don't make my mind up. Look, I got a little, little, little honey outside too. That thing is sweet. Oh yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I done made my mind up. Look, I got a little honey outside, too. That thing is sweet. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:50 All right. The Patriots will reportedly be all in on signing wide receiver T. Higgins this offseason. But after tonight's game, Charlie Clifford tweeted, Joe Burr with a post-game bombshell. I'm confident we're going to do whatever it takes to get T. Higgins back in 2025. Said he's willing to do whatever it takes to make that happen. Sounds like Joey B might rework his deal to keep his wideouts.
Starting point is 00:11:19 I like that. I like that. But listen, listen. I know one thing. T. Higgins is not taking no goddamn home team discount. I would hope not. He wants to be a one somewhere. Let's not play that game.
Starting point is 00:11:36 So I'm understanding what numbers can Joe configure where they can fit in in paying both Chase and T. Higgins. I don't know what that may be. Yeah, I don't either. As a business standpoint, I love the idea. But I actually don't because in the grand scheme of things, there's nowhere you can pay T. Higgins and Jamar Chase at the same time, especially based on Jamar Chase's true value and what he deserves.
Starting point is 00:12:03 And you're going to need to save some of that money for Hendrickson. You need to bring him back. He's the best defensive player, Ocho. And you see how he showed up tonight when they needed pressure and they needed sacks. They got it. They got it. Listen, I love Joe. I love what Joe is talking about, but it's impossible.
Starting point is 00:12:20 It's impossible. I just don't know how you put $70 million into receivers, Ocho. I just don't see how you do it. You can't, you can't. I don't listen. I'm going to tell you, I'm going to be the first one to tell you T he can deserves.
Starting point is 00:12:32 He, he deserves, you know, and he's not going to be able to get what he deserves with, with in Cincinnati, as much as I love it. And as much as I would love for him to stay, but this is the business.
Starting point is 00:12:40 I need, I need people that are fans of the game to be able to separate being a fan in the business side of things so T can get what he deserves. Kirk Cousins' status as the Falcons' starting quarterback has been questioned over the last month. He's thrown eight interceptions, no touchdowns, over the team's
Starting point is 00:12:58 four games, over the four-game losing streak. However, the Falcons' Raheem Morris is choosing to stick with Cousins. Once again, he said today Cousins will start next Monday night against the Las Vegas Raiders. I've said this, Ocho. They still have a chance to win the
Starting point is 00:13:13 division. Once we're mathematically eliminated, I'll go to Penix Jr. But until then, no. We kind of said the same thing. We said the same thing. we said the same thing i said the same thing i think it was last night we talked about it you know and um in short um listen if there's if there's a game where kirk cousins can rebound and build some somewhat of a little bit of
Starting point is 00:13:40 confidence and getting that rhythm and chemistry back and rapport with the receiver, with his receiving core, with his running backs and kind of get things going and get his confidence back, it would probably be the Raiders. As long as he can stay off the goddamn floor
Starting point is 00:13:52 with Matt Crombie, you know, breathing down his neck. As long as he don't be the Raiders' best player. Yeah, that's a good one. I like that. I like that.
Starting point is 00:14:02 That's the problem. Because turning the ball over, you would be the Raiders' best player. Yes. But this is a game, you know, defensively where he can get off. He can get off a little bit. So we'll see what happens. And if they lose again, if they happen to lose to the Raiders, you know,
Starting point is 00:14:18 I think a change will be made at any point that they're limited. It all depends on if Tampa loses also. Right. Because right now, because remember, Ocho, they beat Tampa head-to-head in Tampa. Now, Tampa's,
Starting point is 00:14:31 if I'm not mistaken. Hey, Unc, that Thursday night game you talk about, that Tampa, that Atlanta Falcons Thursday night game, that was the best
Starting point is 00:14:37 Thursday night outside of the recent. It was in Tampa. It was in Atlanta, right? I believe so. I'm talking about that one. It was awesome. I'm talking about that one. It was awesome. I'm talking about back and forth.
Starting point is 00:14:46 Yes. I never forget that game. And so we've already got the Falcons saying, we already got the head-to-head, so we beat you again, and we got the same record. We win the division because we swept you in the division. So I understand Raheem Morris, why he's not doing that. The Ravens insist that their focus don't make it a playoff run,
Starting point is 00:15:04 not recent discipline of a teammate. The Ravens insist that they're focused on making a playoff run, not recent discipline of a teammate. The Ravens suspended Deontay Johnson for one game after GM Eric DaCosta said the veteran wide receiver refused to enter the game. Damn. Don't your players really do that? Anyway, let's finish up. December 1st game against the Eagles. On Monday coming off the bye,
Starting point is 00:15:20 Johnson's fellow wide receiver said they didn't have any issue with it. It ain't a distraction, Zayflower said. That's not my decision to make. He's still one of my guys. He's still one of our guys. Johnson, who's not practicing with the team during the suspension, will miss Sunday's game at the Giants. Ocho, do you believe this
Starting point is 00:15:37 isn't a distraction? No, it's not a distraction, especially as a player. As a player, you understand certain players have to make business decisions that they feel is best for themselves, whatever it may be, even though it's football related, but we, as players, I don't know how you felt. We, as players don't allow anything else to bother us except what we control. Yeah. That's it. Hell, I ain't getting suspended. Ain't my money. Yeah. It is, it's, you know, normally as in most times on the other side of the fence, now being on the media side of things, we consider things being a distraction that are going on in the locker room
Starting point is 00:16:07 when it's based off one individual having an issue, but it's no damn distraction because we as players have a job to do. We have a name on the back of our jersey and the job that we do as a team comes from an individual standpoint. Once we touch that field, we ain't worried about nothing else being no goddamn distractions. When that whistle blows, you think I'm worried about why deontay johnson ain't here oh why is he getting that that was a flowers it'll be a distraction if that was derrick henry it'd be a
Starting point is 00:16:33 distraction yeah yeah that's a distraction the fifth wide receiver not going into the game because he don't feel like he's getting uh he getting his number called right ain't no damn distraction no oh i just thought it was a situation where, hell, he wasn't in the game because he wasn't in the game playing. Hell, it wasn't like he was doing something in practice or doing something in the game when he was in there. So that's how I look at it. I agree with you.
Starting point is 00:16:57 I'm not looking at a guy, a fourth or fifth wide receiver, as being a distraction. Zay Flowers, Mark Andrews, Derrick Henry, something like that there. Marlon Humphrey. Whoa, whoa, what's really going on? That's a problem. That's a distraction. This is not a distraction.

A newly signed Matt Juan Soto reportedly had an unfortunate experience early in his tenure with the New York Yankees. John Hyman of the New York Post reported Soto had negative feelings about an instance in April or May where the Yankee security guy removed one of his parents from the area of the Yankee Stadium. The same security guy reportedly also removed Soto's driver
Starting point is 00:23:12 and chef later in the year forcing them to stand outside in the rain. Heyman asked Soto about the issue after the Yankees watched the Dodgers in five. Soto is a family guy and he was not happy at the time. Hmm.
Starting point is 00:23:27 Understandable. Man, y'all been running across DP with his job. Understandable. Now, and what was funny, because of his decision, this might have went into
Starting point is 00:23:34 his decision making on going to Yeah, for sure. Next, right down the goddamn street. And what's going to happen now is the Yankees are going to go back,
Starting point is 00:23:41 they're going to do their homework, find out who this was that removed his family, the chef, the driver, find out who this was that removed his family, the chef, the driver, whoever it may have been, the family member,
Starting point is 00:23:49 and had them standing in the rain. And boy, you're going to have to answer to somebody. You're going to have to. Maybe the unemployment officer. Yeah, you're going to have to answer. The unemployment officer.
Starting point is 00:23:58 You're going to have to answer to somebody. You know, I understand it's one thing to do your job, but don't abuse your power doing your job. But here's the thing. There's one thing to do your job, but understand't abuse your power doing your job. But here's the thing. There's one thing to do your job, but understand who you're doing your job with. Yeah. And for.
Starting point is 00:24:10 Yeah. Because you got to understand, that's Juan Soto. Aaron Judge, you ain't doing that. Juan Soto, you're not doing that. There's a certain thing. When Jeter was in there. A-Rod, come on now. Oh, you're not doing that.
Starting point is 00:24:21 I mean, there's certain things. I get it. I understand security. But John and myself and td really yeah yeah dang really yeah now that was gonna be a major problem yeah and i'm sure that that came down to a decision making you know because you look at because it doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me either. Oh, Joe, he got an ideal situation. He got a short right field porch. He's a left handed batter. He has a very discerning eye. Yeah. You know. He's not a three, but 285 is a nice average. I mean, now, hey, it used to be guy used to be guys 300. Now guys want to blast the ball over the fence.
Starting point is 00:25:06 But he has a very discerning eye. You're not going to strike him out. He's not going to swing at bad pitches. He's going to make you get him out. He's not going to help you. He's a very good player, a young player. Ocho, he turned down three years ago 15 years 450. Three years later, he got an extra 315.
Starting point is 00:25:24 Yeah, he knew better. He understood. That's what you call not only trusting yourself, that's called betting on yourself. Yeah. Understand there was going to be no decline in your game. And in three years' time, you knew where you would be at because of the consistency and the work that you put in.
Starting point is 00:25:42 That's called betting on yourself. The baseball union, Ocho, they don't let you give deals because they want to keep driving the salaries up. And they know if you give somebody a deal, now that pauses that. That's why guys will let, man, why did he leave the ideal situation?
Starting point is 00:25:58 Because they want to drive the salaries up. Damn ideal situation. We want these salaries to continuously go up. And the only way we do that is that if you go somewhere even if it's not ideal for you, it's ideal for the betterment of the system.

Must took the money look at pool holes look at the guys hey look at those guys they're like no bro must be the money now uh uh i get aaron judge because you know he's a hometown kid now uh he grew up in the yankees organization and they gave him something you're yankees captain that means something a lot especially that means something you got them pinstripes on there yes yes yes so i'm happy
Starting point is 00:26:47 for juan soto i would love for him to stay obviously i root for the yankees but i understand it if that was one of the reasons that he left i can't say i'm blaming man you treat my family like that got people standing in the rain that i that i love and man please i'm surprised we didn't hear more about this because he probably probably have raised some. He probably should have raised some hell then. Yeah. But, hey, he bottled it up. There's going to come a time because he left the Yankees, what, for an extra $5 million. Ocho, and I asked the question this morning, what can't you buy with $760 that you can at $765?

Starting point is 00:27:40 It's called fuck you money. What do you call this? Ocho, just thinking somebody gave you Ocho, they say, Ocho, for the next 15 years, we're going to give you 10 million a year. 15. Right. He getting 51.
Starting point is 00:27:57 So that's not fuck you money.

Starting point is 00:31:22 always ranking last on the polls of favorite black shows underneath martin and living single if it's not a hood story it's not a black story whoa whoa whoa i don't i don't understand what these mean listen family matters is is is is a legacy when it comes to sitcoms back in the days yes family matters uh uh martin is is all under the same umbrella. I mean, I'm not sure what he's talking about. A different world? I mean, need I keep going?
Starting point is 00:31:49 Living single? I mean, it just is. And what he can't worry about is when publications or media outlets talk about, let's talk about the culture. The culture in general and how that show resonates with all of us when it comes to the cosby show family and all that is under the same that wasn't none and the cosby definitely wasn't no damn hood oh man listen absolutely not so i'm he's mistaken i'm not sure where he's getting his information from uh but hey listen it resonates with all of us is it was okay but bro it is okay listen it's okay bro but bro, it is. Okay. Listen, it's okay, bro.
Starting point is 00:32:26 You got, I think, I think the show was on seven years, six, seven years back, bro. You had a nice run. Very good one.
Starting point is 00:32:32 You can't concern yourself about how the culture feels about certain shows. It's okay. It's okay. That doesn't make any, that'll make any less. Uh, you were phenomenal in the role that you played Urkel is one of the the roles that we'll remember forever yeah but I don't think many people think Family Matters was as good a show as Martin as good a show as Living Single
Starting point is 00:33:00 as good a show as A Different World as good a show as some of the others it's just not and it's okay they're all they're all special in their own right they all get something different they all get something different you know yeah family matters was the family dynamic yeah family dynamic bill i mean the cosby show was a family dynamic yes if you wanted to watch something else then you watch a different type of show that didn't give you that family dynamic. Yes. If you wanted to watch something else, then you watch a different type of show that didn't give you that family dynamic. Yes. But it was,
Starting point is 00:33:28 it was fun. Family matters was great, man. From top to goddamn bottom, man, life lessons, you know, all types of stuff they gave us along with laughter.
Starting point is 00:33:39 But it's okay. But look, I, I, I like, I disagree. Um, I don't think because it wasn't a hood story isn't why it's
Starting point is 00:33:47 ranked underneath living single and some of those other shows i just think those other shows were better that's just me now there's some people that say hey i like family matters and that's fine too yeah but martin was appointment viewing living single was appointment viewing it it just it just was right it ain't nothing wrong with that i mean martin people will still watch reruns of martin to this day and you will still laugh as if first time seeing it yeah the first time seeing it which is which is weird and martin martin show the jamie foxx show it just had to be one of them ones.

Starting point is 00:57:38 We know he's not going to be back, you know, because from a financial perspective and standpoint, I wouldn't mind him going there. I wouldn't mind him going there. I wouldn't mind him going there. I wouldn't mind him going to New England. You know, New England had Drake May. Now, I wouldn't mind him going to the Broncos as well because of the quarterback play over there.

Oh, if Ocho played with Joe Burrow today, would he still be the number one option or would Chase take that spot? Ocho? Yeah. How would you handle sharing the spotlight with Chase?
Starting point is 00:58:42 Love y'all. I mean, listen, obviously if I were I were, if I were with Chase, uh, I probably take a backseat. I probably take a backseat because I'm, I know I'm gonna get mine anyway. I'm gonna get mine anyway. Same way.
Starting point is 00:58:52 When, when Tio came to Cincinnati, when Tio came to Cincinnati, I took a backseat because I understood that this is greatness in front of me. Regardless of what I had done to a point. I ain't, I ain't motherfucking stupid. I ain't delusional.

Alan said, love y'all show up. What do you think of Bo Nix so far? What players do you think Broncos need to become legit Super Bowl contenders? Ocho, PS2 versus one
Starting point is 01:00:26 would be a show, unfortunately. One getting clamped. Child, please. Child, please. What it need? Look, they need a corner. I like McMillan. I like McMillan.
Starting point is 01:00:43 I like the linebackers. Maybe another pass rushing D tackle. Some offensive linemen. I thought Javante would be better. But they kind of like McLaughlin. But I think some offensive line. Show up that offensive line to make sure Bo is
Starting point is 01:01:01 protected. Tight end. Get a tight end. I mean, they got guys. Can you imagine if they find a tight end in the draft? I'm not sure if there's one that's as good as Brock Powers or even closer. Oh, yeah, ain't no tight end that good this year. Hell no.
Starting point is 01:01:20 Brock Powers got a chance to be really special. I'm talking about he got a chance to hey he got a chance I mean he get now he gonna take some lumps and bruise he gonna take some lumps he gonna have damn a lot of ails yeah unless they get a quarterback in there yeah but he got a he got he got gold jacket potential yeah absolutely
Starting point is 01:01:37 he got gold jacket potential Isaiah Lancaster with the Bills versus the Lions game determinative Josh locks up the MVP and can Buffalo bounce back yes the Lions keep losing players every single week on the defensive side of football
Starting point is 01:01:53 I think their secondary can be had I do think their secondary can be had offensively they're really good especially on that fast turf now you think the Rams, you better be on your best behavior because they're another team
Starting point is 01:02:08 that could put 40 up on your ass in the blink of an eye. Yeah. And I think, you know what I also think? I think the Bills, oh man, I think it's too much. It's too much firepower. It's too much firepower.
Starting point is 01:02:22 Not only do you have to deal with Amon Ross St. Brown and Jamison Williams, then you have to deal with that goddamn two-headed muscle in that goddamn backfield and Montgomery and Jameer Gibbs, you know? Boom. It's only, listen, Josh Allen can only put on that cape for so
Starting point is 01:02:33 long. He can only put on that cape for so long and do what he needs to do offensively, but it's the same thing what they just had to deal with with the goddamn Rams. Same thing. You got Pook and the Cool going crazy. What you think goddamn Amar and Rock going to do? What you think Jameson Williams is going to do?
Starting point is 01:02:49 They're two different type of animals. One guy is going to work the middle of the field, going to work the underneath stuff. Jameson Williams looking to take the top off it. You got Tim Patrick who's solid. You got Laporta. You got the two-headed monster in the backfield. It's too much. And they got a way better offensive line than the Rams.
Starting point is 01:03:08 Oh, yeah. It's too much. Yeah, man. Yes. You must deal with it. They got Ragnar. They got Glasnow. They got Glasnow.
Starting point is 01:03:15 They got... Yeah, they got Finesu. Yeah. They got Decker. I think Decker is still injured. Oh, they loaded. Yeah. They're really, really, really, really good.
Starting point is 01:03:26 Big time. But Josh can put on that cape. He can single-handedly win you a game. He's that good. I can't wait to see that game. That game, what is that? That Thursday, what did they play? Marky Gambino.
Starting point is 01:03:42 Gambini. What's up, Uncle Nocho? Do you think the NFL would ever have an NFC-AFC playoff? It could be a chance to see. Do NFC know? That's why they split it up. Just like you got an Eastern and a Western conference. You got AL and an NL.
Starting point is 01:03:55 Right. The reason why. Uh-huh. No, I don't think so. I think they like. Look, the game is competitive. The conferences are competitive. The Pro Bowl was some trash,
Starting point is 01:04:09 and you see what they're trying to do with the NBA All-Star Game. Because ain't nobody want to see no 200 points scored in no All-Star Game. They got to incentivize it a little bit more. How do you incentivize it for goddamn multi-millionaires that make the kind of money NBA players make?
Starting point is 01:04:29 Why got to incentivize it, don't you? Because it's called an all-star game for a reason and when you play in the all-star game it's the middle and you already making a hundred thousand and them boys chilling man yes that's the problem yeah I mean look at and everybody quit calling Jordan Toby okay we'll Jordan and Kobe in the All-Star game. Be Elijah Warren in the All-Star game. Do that. They play for real, boy. Do that. Y'all quick call.
Starting point is 01:04:53 I love their mentality. Oh, y'all love their mentality when they play the regular season. When it's convenient. Y'all, what about the All-Star game? Yeah. Yeah. Times have changed. It was the same thing.
Starting point is 01:05:04 The Pro Bowl used to be competitive i'm not saying we approached it like we're playing a regular season game but that was actually tackling i knew and i said it and people got upset me i said oh the owner's gonna be mad at this oh they're not gonna pay y'all this money to go and play two hand touch oh no yeah yeah yeah nah nah i said i'm telling you they're gonna change it i said y'all better pick it up they gave y'all every opportunity and y'all didn't want to hit nobody football is still tackling though Joe
Starting point is 01:05:30 I mean there ain't no way around it listen when you go to the Pro Bowl now listen I played during that era I played during that era now then the first three quarters now we bullshitting but you still tackle
Starting point is 01:05:41 it wasn't until you touched it we still tackle but Ray we get to that fourth quarter and Ray say alright now it's time to go we started playing for real because we wanted to win that game we need that check yes
Starting point is 01:05:57 and they make it 75, 100,000 Ocho it was 10,000 to the winners 5,000 to the winners, 5,000 to the losers. Yeah. Now imagine you done brought guest over.

Starting point is 01:23:11 I mean, I hadn't had to fend them around my family. I can't, I'm trying to think the last time that all my family was together for like Christmas, it's probably been, I don't know. Joe in a minute.
Starting point is 01:23:24 It ain't been. Yeah. Oh yeah. Cause you know, when you play sports, you're not, you know, you're not really around. I mean, sometimes,'t know, Ocho. In a minute, huh? It ain't been, yeah, oh, yeah. Because, you know, when you play sports, you're not, you know, you're not really around. I mean, sometimes, you know, sometimes I get the kid, and sometimes the mom had the kid. If I got him for Thanksgiving, the mom was getting him for Christmas. Right.
Starting point is 01:23:36 If I got him for Christmas, the mom was getting him for Thanksgiving. So, but I'm saying, like, all my family, I mean, you're probably talking about 30, 40 years, Ocho. Damn. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, early in my career, my mom would come for Christmas. Like, I'm going to see my baby for Christmas. She wouldn't go to my mom's.
Starting point is 01:23:55 And, you know, sometimes my sister came a couple of times. But after that, they're like, you'll be grown ass. You big enough to be by yourself. So, you know, and I understood because i'd rather them be with granny than come out there and and get on my nerves and talk about have me running up and down the road getting stuff to eat what you got you ain't got nothing to eat go get me this go get me that like i was uber way before uber right i was door dash way before door that nobody wanted the same thing i gotta go stop by this place and go way across town and get that. Y'all ain't got no soul food.
Starting point is 01:24:27 No, ain't nothing close by. So I would like, you know, that was my tradition, the family getting together. And so, uh, that, that, that family dynamic every, ever since, um, I've tried my best to keep it going as far as family tradition is concerned you know having all the kids there ever since grandma passed away ever since my mom passed away
Starting point is 01:24:53 it's just it's hard to keep those traditions together man not the same huh it ain't it ain't especially once my grandma passed man and you know she was
Starting point is 01:25:02 you know the one she was the glue that held it all together we had it all together so once that foundation that once that foundation cracked it ain't it ain't been the same yet and i've been trying to to to start to start that up again it's hard it ain't the same ain't gonna be the same boy it's hard it's really hard i i i know you know because you know that was the thing and you know i remember uh uh when my grandmother passed that was the last time that all of us had gotten together right and my grandmother passed in 2011 so all my cousins you know my aunts and uncles that was
Starting point is 01:25:36 the last time it's like well you know uh you know my sister is the oldest on that side of the family and it's like maybe you ought to start it back. They're winning one and not the other. Yeah, that's a lot. My sister, see, here's the thing. People don't know my sister is more antisocial than I am. Right. She don't do nothing.
Starting point is 01:25:58 Church and back home. That's it. Libby, what you do today? Well, I went around the block. I took a ride out to the country and came back and put my car in the garage and let the garage down and now I was watching TV. That's what you do. That's what you do, Ocho.
Starting point is 01:26:13 Yeah. So, JR said, oh, watch collection is insane. I see those different dials. What's your favorite watch brand? Uh, I kind of have something, you know.
Starting point is 01:26:29 I like Patek. I like AP, Rolly. I'm probably going to look at a little bit of FP Journe. I mean, I like watches. I mean, I just basically have Rolexes, APs, and Pateks. I don't have a Vacheron. I don't have and Pateks. I don't have a Vacheron. I don't have a Piaget. I don't have an FP Journe.
Starting point is 01:26:49 You know, I used to have Frank Mueller. Right. But just the three big guns. But I got my eye on something. I'm waiting. What? Waiting. Well, it's hard to get those off catalogs because, you know,
Starting point is 01:27:03 off catalog is something that only they're, they're, they're, they're, they're people that have spent X amount of dollars with them. So it's not like they're going to offer it to me. Uh, and so,
Starting point is 01:27:15 so I'm trying to build up my collection and it's not easy because a lot of times, you know, they want you to buy, you know, 10 stuff that, and you still, there's this you're still not assured of being able to get it right so it is what it is i'll pick and choose and sometimes you have to pay
Starting point is 01:27:33 over uh retail you just have to pay over retail just like a car sometimes ocho you can't get on a list for a car and somebody have the car and you gotta pay oh you know over sticker to get it yeah it is what it is.
