Ocho, I think there was a viral clip of a gentleman that was in the attendance at the uh

background that everybody said that it looked like me and people talking about that with my son

He was going to be officiating the game today between Morehouse and Clark.

And then he got glasses at some point in time to really look like me.

It's always great to go back and be at an HBCU
and feel the vibe and feel the energy.
It was going to be a big game.
Moore House was trying to, like, finish out on a strong note.
I think Clark was trying to win the division
and go to the, I think,
whatever they have.

to spoil it.

a kumbaya moment.
A coming together moment about
me having to take three L's in less than
a two week stand.
What happened?
Swizz Beatz teases
the return of Versus.
Man, during the pandemic,
I loved Versus.
Yeah, Versus was really good,
especially during the pandemic.
It was perfect timing.
That was perfect timing.
That's why the viewership
was so goddamn high
because there was nothing else for us to do.
There was nothing else for us to do
outside of watching TV and Netflix
and Hulu and all those other things.
But Versus was awesome.
Versus was really awesome.
The fact that it's coming back,
but you got to give it,
you got to give it to people what they, but you got to give it to people, but they won't.
You got
to give it to people.
Look,
I love the Isley Brothers,
Earth, Wind & Fire.
Oh, you want...
Snoop Dogg.
Oh, man, I loved it.
Look, if I could have any
Versus, I want two.
I want Mariah and Whitney
and I want Prince and Michael Jackson.
We talk about real live
verses. I mean, those are hypotheticals
that actually...
That's the verses I want.
I see what you mean.
If I would think about today
and the verses that I would like
to see, I would like to see,
I would like to see a versus between maybe like a… Jay-Z and Wayne.
No.
I mean, yeah.
Yeah.
I would like to see a Chris Brown and Usher.
A Chris Brown versus Usher.
Their discography…
20 songs?
Just 20?
Yeah, 20 is enough because they got too many songs.
20 of their best songs.
Chris Brown versus... That'd be a good one.
That'd be a good one. That'd be a damn
good one. Really, really good.
That would be a very, very
good one.
Who else?
I mean, what you want you want rap
you want R&B I'm trying to think of rap
some where it makes sense
some that makes sense
Nicki Minaj and Meg
nah
Nicki Minaj has
her discography is too big
Lil Kim and Nicki
yeah yeah Miss' Kim and Nicki.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Missy Elliott and Nicki.
Yeah, yeah.
Hey, I don't know what you... Y'all must have forgot about...
Y'all must have forgot about Missy.
She ain't Mr. Mina for nothing now.
Don't play with her.
Don't play with her.
And her videos.
Ain't no woman had no videos
like her. Yeah, nobody had visuals.
Nobody had artistry
or
creativity. That little pint size
that small
5'1", 5'2", pint size.
But boy.
Missy and Busta
Rhymes, their creativity and their visuals
was untouchable back then.
Untouchable.
Who y'all want to see?
Who y'all want to see?
Who y'all want to see in a versus
chat?
Somebody said Who would y'all want to see in a versus chat? Somebody say Jodeci and whoever.
Guy and Jodeci.
How about we do Guy and Jodeci?
That would be a good one.
Babyface and Keith Sweat.
Woo!
I don't know.
Hey, Babyface got some knockers.
Because Babyface got a lot of stuff that he didn't say that he wrote.
I was just going to say that.
Who could we put Stevie Wonder up against?
Nobody.
Stevie Wonder?
Yeah.
He's a legend, boy.
He got some classics.
Stevie got some classics.
Somebody said about Lil Wayne and Em.
Em and Em.
That's a good one.
Who are you going to put up against New Edition?
New Edition?
One Twit?
Look, I look here. Here's the thing, guys. One Twit?
We just talking
musically.
We know the person. We know what
R. Kelly is alleged to have done. We're not here to try to right or wrong or say
he didn't or whatever the case. Nobody here in this chat is qualified
to retry this case. Quincy Jones
just passed. Ain't nobody effing with Quincy.
So not R. Kelly because he wrote, Quincy
wrote for too many big artists,
from Michael Jackson to Frank Sinatra to Brothers Johnson to Donna Summers
to George Bitts.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
I mean, produced.
I don't think he wrote a whole lot.
No.
Summer Street?
No.
Ray Charles?
Mm-mm. No. Ray Charles. Now,
because I remember
having a conversation
with Snoop
and Snoop said the only one that he
think as far as produced
would probably be Dr. Dre.
But when you look at
Quincy, you're talking about 60 years, aren't you? That's a long time, oh Joe that's a long time boy that's a long
time in the big from Michael to Frank Sinatra George Benson brothers Johnson
uh uh Ray Charles Quincy Jones is is damn near octopus when it comes to the music industry
he's oh he's oh he's touched every genre of music and it has
something to do with really everybody.
And he's like a standalone.
He's a standalone. He's like, we're just
going to leave him alone. We're going to go on to something
else. But
I mean, I'm anxious to see
because I look. When Versus came on,
when it first started, oh, it was
must see. I don't care
who it was. I'm listening.
Who did Usher win against?
Who did Usher go against?
Not Usher.
Did Nelly go against somebody, but it was raining in Nelly's place.
Who did he go against?
Luda?
Because Luda went against – who did Luda go against?
I don't remember.
Luda went against Nelly, right?
Yeah, Luda went against Nelly.
Mm-hmm. That Chris Brown usher would be a good one though
I'm not sure who they think about getting
you know but when they do start it back up
the first thing they do
it has to be two people
that command the ear
you get two people that command the ear
and the eyes
of the viewing audience
you set you gotta start You get two people that command the air in the eyes of the viewing audience,
you set.
You got to start off with a bang.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
To get people back in,
oh, you got to bring some heavyweights.
You got to bring the heavyweights.
You got to.
To get them back in,
because guess what, Ocho?
Everybody outside now. See, when you first had it everybody
was inside what they gonna do
now to get them back to come like okay
it's gotta be must see it's gotta be appointment TV
right
hell you might have to get us and Chris Brown
that'd be live
like I said like a Beyonce Beyonce ain ain't bionce ain't doing this
so can we please stop talking about like stop saying bionce stop saying taylor swift some
people like like a whole you know i just threw that out there yeah them guys they gonna do this
what absolutely not yeah maybe uh What? Absolutely not. Yeah.
Maybe, uh...
Hell, I don't know.
I don't know.
Would Stephanie Mills do it?
Why is it always the small women that got the biggest voices?
You notice that, Ocho?
Christina Aguilera.
Tina Marie.
Stephanie Mills.
Christina Aguilera, small.
Ariana Grande, small.
Melba Morris, small.
Why all these small women got the biggest damn voices?
Yeah.
They'd be five foot tall, 5'1", 5'2", and singing like they're seven foot tall.
Yeah.
Stephanie Mills is tiny.
Mm-hmm.
Tina Marie was tiny. Ariana Grande is tiny. Christina Aguilera is tiny Tina Marie was tiny
Ariana Grande is tiny

Wesley Taylor said
I get so confused when people think you don't
like the black community, did Nadassi what you did
for the four Olympians, who were
the majority black, you to go
bro I can't
you see, but see that's the power
of the internet
you see somebody says something
and then guess what happens Ocho
everybody start regurgitating
that. It gets repeated as
fact and they take it
and run with it. So
it used to bother me because I'm like
where did they get this from? Now I just
don't give a F.
Because
people
are going to believe what they
want to believe.
Why should I spend any time trying to worry about or disprove what I like or dislike?
Right. Okay, y'all run with that. Keep it going.
Now, I want to know how many bills that pay for you. I want to know
where that gets you in life. Because in order for you to keep running with it and keep regurgitating, something has to be good coming from it for you.
Maybe you're a content creator and it gives you stuff to talk about.
But I don't, Casey, I don't spend any time worried about what people think, who I like or dislike.
They need to worry about themselves. worried about what people think, who I like or dislike.
They need to worry about themselves.

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. Listen to Ali and me now on Audible.
One of the NFL players is an heir to a $500 million potato empire.
St. Center, Conor McGregor, is in his eighth NFL season,
and his family company is the biggest potato producer in America.
Their main potato supplier are McDonald's, Raising Cane's, Wendy's, and Frito-Lay chips.
And when Conor McGregor was drafted by the Broncos in 2016,
some of his teammates were curious why he was playing football when he can
make far more money back home farming his response.
I wanted to make a name for myself and show that my hard work earned myself
something. And I wasn't riding the coattails of everybody,
but whatever his NFL career ends,
the 31 L center said he would go back to RD.
What is off it? His he would go back to R.D., his family's company,
back to research, I guess research and develop,
though he said he'll work his way up from the bottom just like everybody else
and earn his way up just like he did in his football career.
So the next time you're snacking on McDonald's fries,
remember those potatoes are likely coming from Conor Mccgovern mcconnell mcgovern's family
farm that's dope that's dope i and i like that most of the time when you when you have
success or a kid is born into wealth they don't have that same drive and that work that
it takes to want to work and actually put the work in to earn and see what it's like to have
the responsibilities and what it takes to earn that kind of money to be able to support yourself so i'm not sure if his parents raised him that way and but the fact that
he is the way he is is commendable and then not only for the business to already be successful
but to have an nfl career and say i'm gonna make good money in nfl and then when i do retire i'm
gonna start from the bottom of the business and work my way back up to the top ain't too many
people built like that huh yeah but but he should because i'm sure he doesn't know the business and work my way back up to the top. Ain't too many people built like that, huh?
Yeah, but he should because I'm
sure he doesn't know the business
because he was like playing football,
college football, NFL football
like the people that's already there.
Although a lot of times, yeah, you're right, Ocho.
A lot of times family members, hey, my family
company, I want to start at a
VP level as opposed to an entry
level, learn the ropes, and
work your way up. That's why I've always been impressed
by Peyton Manning. His dad made
lots of money. Eli
made lots of money. And they're going to be
number one draft picks overall and make
careers for themselves. You have to commend
that. When your dad is somebody,
your mom, your family is somebody,
and you say, yeah, that's fine and good, but I want
my own name. And that's what people used to tell me all the time. Man, your brother got somebody, and you say, yeah, that's fine and good, but I want my own name.
And that's what people used to tell me all the time.
Man, your brother got money.
That's his money.
My brother don't want to be taking care of no grown-ass man.
He got a wife and kid.
So I want to earn my own.
I want to do my own thing.
I appreciate everything that my brother gave me.
He gave me just enough to make me desire to get more but on my own
i saw the thing that he had and i and he knew he knew i wanted to be like him
hey hey bro check this out look what i Inspiring, ain't it?
Man.
And I went and got everything, with the exception, with the exception, he had a
I don't know if you remember this, Ocho, but
in the 80s, they came out with a BMW
called the M3. It had a
spoiler on the back and everything.
With the exception of that, and he had a Typhoon.
Every other car that my brother
had, I got it. You got your one?
He got a Ferrari, I got a Ferrari. He got a Big Benz, I got a Big Benz. Whatever my brother had, I got it. You got one? He got a Ferrari, I got a Ferrari.
He got a big Benz, I got a big Benz.
Whatever car he had, I got.
Because that's what I saw.
That's what drove, that's what motivated me.
And for Conor McGrath, a governed family, to be who they are.
And he said, nah, yeah, that's good, fine.
But I want my own name.
That's loud.
And no matter what happens, I've had an NFL career
that's expanded 8 years, maybe it goes
9, 10, who knows
but when my career's over, yeah
I'm still young, think about it
he'll only be 30, let's just say for the sake of argument
his career goes another 2 years
he'll be 33 years of age
yeah
he can
I mean, he's made good money, he can retire if he want made good money he can retire if he
want to but he said no we're going to go into
the family business and we're going to expand
so I mean I love that
I love
when kids come from
wealthy families or well off
families and don't feel entitled
I love
that no matter what you know what you want to say because a lot of times families and don't feel entitled. I love that.
No matter what you want to say, because a lot of times they have access.
Bronny had access.
LeBron made sure he had the best trainer.
He had the best nutritionist.
He had the best coaches.
He had the best of everything.
But the kid says, I want to make it on my own. Now, he's never going to be able to outrun his dad's shadow.
His dad is LeBron.
It's just like Jordan kids.
They're never going to be able to outrun the door's dad's shadow. His dad is LeBron. It's just like Jordan kids. They're never going to be able to open the door
to his dad's shadow.
But just
because that's my dad, I shouldn't walk for myself?
So you mean to tell me
I can't walk to accomplish something?
Just my last name is supposed to get it.
So I commend the kid.
I commend him. I love the opportunity.
Look, he's supposed to. You're supposed to
give them an opportunity.
All this old ass nepotism.
And nip your ass out of my face.
But like I said, I love when kids want to be something on their own.
You know what I'm saying, Ocho?
I can't do anything.
I can't help who my parents are, what I was born into.
But I have a desire to be known by more than that.
I did that on my own.
Yeah, that's my brother.
But Sterling ain't catch no passes at Savannah State.
He ain't catch no passes for the Broncos or the Ravens.
So no matter what's up, and y'all know this, you know this,
NFL want to know who can help.
Can you help me win games?
That's all it come down to.
Because Sterling ain't playing over here.
He playing on the green bay.
He helping green bay win games.
So kudos to you, Carter McGovern.

She told him she wanted to go
to a steakhouse. He took her to Eddie V's.
Eddie V's in Nashville?
There are several Eddie V's, but I don't
want to Nashville. That's neither here nor there.
She ordered lamb chops,
oysters, and
crab fried rice
after he only ordered the drink.
Total cost of her meal,
$159.
You could hear her tell him
this is usually how I order
she paid the rest of the bill after he left
$100 and walked out
I ain't mad at her
I ain't mad at her
this is the first time they going out
yeah I ain't mad at her buddy
I guess
it was the first day it was the first day going out? Yeah, I ain't mad at nobody. I guess.
It was the first date.
For sure.
And the last date.
Man, listen.
Out the real... I was just going to say that.
Most of the time, it's fellas out here,
it's dudes out here probably that she's been with before
and it's taken out. It's all about here probably that she's been with before and it's taken out.
You know, it's all about showing out.
It's all about showing out
on the first date
because, you know,
first impressions of everything.
You got to reel in.
How do you reel a woman in?
By doing all the craziness
in the beginning.
The more,
the crazier you are
in the beginning
with spoiling
and spending a lot of money,
the easier it is
to get to your end goal.
And that's all it comes down to.
It's all a goddamn game, man.
It's a game.
And that game is one of them to pull
it off like this. That's crazy.
But
Swish, here's the thing.
Ocho, let me ask y'all this.
If I take somebody on the
first or second date and I get
a private plane, what I got to do
next? Get the space shuttle? Where the hell
I go from there? If I'm
getting you lobster, if I'm getting you
hold on, if I'm getting you lamb chops
and oysters, now granted, we're in
different tax brackets, okay? But I'm saying
the average guy
ain't got bread like that.
Okay, we get you a seafood
tower that costs $400, $500.
Okay, we get X, Y, and Z. That's one thing.
But I'm saying,
the seafood tower, they got
like four or five lobster tails.
They got crab claws. They got scallops.
They got oysters.
They got shrimp. Whatever the case may be.
What was the price?
What was the price you said it cost?
Probably about
$350, $400.
Y'all got damn head, man.
But that's
what I'm saying. But Ocho,
that's what I'm saying on the first date.
If you do that on the first date,
where do you go from there?
No, you can't go. You ain't
nowhere to go. You gotta go to the moon.
Shoot.
That's what I'm saying.
Baby, how about we start with something?
How about we start with something, you know?
I ain't no sushi,
so ain't no sense in me going
there because I ain't going to eat it.
But can we go to like
American cuisine?
They got burgers,
or they got some fish, they got some salmon.
You know, they got
a grouper. They got some type of fish. You know what they got burgers or they got some fish. They got some salmon. You know, they got, you know, they got a grouper.
They got some type of fish.
You know what I'm saying?
Dover salt.
How can we start ribs?
Can we start there?
Let's start going to the state.
And you know, the state is market price.
When you start seeing something with market price.
Yeah.
You know what it is, huh?
You gotta take it real
old school nowadays. You gotta see
what they really in for, and you gotta take them
on a couple picnics. Pack them some
Smuckers peanut butter jelly sandwiches
or something. Pack them yummy.
There you go. Now we're talking.
Crustables. I ain't making no sense.
Crustables. They already got the crust off of.
Give me a couple of those.
I was saying a couple of iced teas,
a little Arnold Palmer's in the joint.
Like I said,
we really like me.
A couple of bags of Skittles or something.
See where we at first.
Yeah.
Yeah,
now we talking.
Hey,
I'm a simple guy.
Even swap ain't no swindle.
Okay,
what we doing?
You use me for the ride,
I use you for the ride.
You want the pay,
I use you for a day.
I mean, even Swapik can't be.
Can't be. I pop the back of the trunk,
we sit out back, we chill, we have a conversation.
Hey, look, come on now.
I'm looking. If you're trying to be
a sponsor, if you're trying to be
a partner, or you're trying to get sponsored.
Hold on.
Hold on, I got to you. Hold on.
Hold on.
I just need... Hold on. Hold on. I got to you. Hold on. Hold on. Hold that thought.
Swish, I just need to – hey, I can be either one.
I just need to know.
Ocho, Ramsar Puka Nakua says he could play in the NBA with ease.
I think it would be so easy to transition from the NFL to the NBA less than three months.
Listen, as much as I love Puka,
I love my NFL players,
especially the elite players at the NFL level,
I don't think they understand.
I know you go to LA Fitness,
you go to the rec center,
maybe you play with hoopers sometimes,
maybe you play with tall players sometimes.
I don't think they understand the difference
and how good the, not even the elite,
some of the worst NBA players,
how good they are once they're in a structured environment.
And it's disrespectful for Puka to be able to be able to say, you know what?
I can come in and transition and some dudes is good, man.
Even as good as you may think you are when you're playing against regular
people, it's different. It's different.
I understand that because I ran with them. I ran with them.
I ran with them in New York.
What's the name of the gym?
Everybody work out at New York.
55.
Yeah, man.
Listen, man.
I thought I thought I thought I can get out there because I'm I'm quick.
You know, I'm fast.
And, you know, I'm twitchy.
I ain't had this.
I felt bad.
I felt embarrassed because I had no business out there.
None of my shit was working.
But let me ask you this. But here's the thing, Ocho. I felt embarrassed because I had no business out there. None of my shit was working.
But let me ask you this, Sweet.
But here's the thing, Ocho.
When you said he can play, I don't think he's talking about he's going to go get 15.
I think he's saying he can get some rebounds, set some picks.
I mean, that's it, man. You come off a pick unless you got to be a real shooter like that.
You know, come off a pick or something like that.
Come off a screen.
But, man, listen, man.
Then you got them trees down there too.
6'9", 6'10", 6'11".
And they got 40 in verse.
You got twos at 6'6", 6'7".
Man, you ain't doing nothing with that, man.
You ain't doing nothing with that, man, at all, unless you special.
And he don't have that kind of talent like a Ja Morant or a Russell Westbrook
where you're just going to blow by people, you know, based off skill set DNA.
No.
Uh-uh.
He got a nice little game.
He was on my team in the celebrity all-star game.
He got a nice little game.
No, I ain't say he got no NBA game.
Damn.
Okay, okay, okay.
I'm just making a show now.
That's why I said against regular people, he look good.
Yeah.
He gets you three or four rebounds or something like that, Ochoa.
I ain't say anybody go out there and hit like four, five threes.
Hey, man, it's different, man.
Let me ask y'all this.
What you think is the easier transition?
Oh, the easier transition is basketball to football.
You think so?
Why are you saying that?
Because –
Oh.
No, no, no, no.
But here's the thing.
Normally, guys that transition, they play football.
Right.
You don't see no football player say, you know what, nah, Charlie Ward did.
Charlie Ward played football and basketball in college. And you see a lot of guys that transition. Tony Ward played football and basketball in college.
And you see a lot of guys that transitioned.
Tony Gonzalez played football and basketball.
Julius Peppers.
Julius Peppers.
Football and basketball.
Ronald Kerr.
Yeah.
But I think the thing is that it all depends on the position.
A lot of times, you're a tight end, Jimmy Graham,
or you being a D lineman.
Mm-hmm.
You ain't playing no wide receiver.
You ain't playing no DB.
Yeah, see, that's my thing.
When I told me, dog, when I was getting recruited in high school,
they told me, my cousin went to Miami, right?
So he ended up playing.
He was playing D in and shit.
So I'm like, all right, cool.
He said, man, look, cuz, I ain't going to lie.
The last couple of cats they brought
down here that was our size, they
made tight ends. I said, listen, bro,
I holla at y'all. I ain't playing no
tight end, dog. I ain't blocking.
I ain't doing none of that. I holla
at you. I gotta put on another
45 pounds, 220.
Like, no, dog, I'm not doing that.
Nah, you'd be good. They'd put 20 pounds on you.
You'd be hailing tight end. I'm straight, man. I ain't blocking nobody. I ain't, no, dog. I'm not doing that. All right, y'all. No, you'd be good. They'd put 20 pounds on you. You'd be hailing tight end.
I'm straight, man.
I ain't blocking nobody.
I ain't, no.
And y'all got, see, that's the difference for me.
See, for football to basketball, intellectually,
y'all are way smarter than what y'all seen.
Y'all be in these meetings.
Y'all know all the plays.
Y'all got a book this long.
Bro, I've been on teams with dudes.
We got 10 plays.
They don't know nothing.
The volume.
