new year.
So make sure as again, Shea is pinned.
Shea Balaporte is pinned at the top of the chat.
We will be announcing our Thanksgiving Day giveaway winners
later in the show, so stay tuned.
So let's get right into it, Ocho.
All the teams that won, their quarterbacks played really well today.
They made some throws that were very, very impressive.
Green Bay was very, very impressive.
We're going to get to them a little later.
But let's talk about the Seahawks and the 49ers.
They went out there, the 49ers did, got the ball,
goes right down the field, scored a touchdown,
and they didn't look back.
So what was some of your takeaways from this ballgame?
All right, my first takeaway, forget stats,
forget what the 49ers did today as a whole as far as the game is concerned.
The 49ers team collectively is
almost unfair when everybody
is healthy. Debo, IU,
Trent Williams, then on defense,
that's secondary, Jadavious Ward.
Everything else they
got going on, they had everybody
in goddamn clamps.
And to me,
in comparison for me, I'm not even a basketball fan but i remember hearing all the gripes about people let's say uh comparison to the golden state
warriors when they had kevin durant where it was almost fair from obviously now from an offensive
standpoint but also the defense and just as good so when you think about the 49ers for me
specifically when i think about the 49ers every team in the NFL has an identity either your offense is great or your defense is great it's never both
but when it comes to the goddamn 49ers on both sides of the ball they are equally as yoked and
it's almost unfair if they don't win the Super Bowl this year then something is wrong they look
they look really good they really man Purdy obviously you said he was 21 for 30 for 29
yards he had a td uh unfortunate unfortunate interception yeah debo samuels was an animal man
yeah he was the animal today and picked up where he left off as he obviously he's been back a few
games due to injury that he had i don't like the fact they didn't use brandon iuk enough
enough today and uh he was he was kind of left out.
He had a touchdown.
I like to consider that.
I call that garbage time.
I consider that garbage time.
Other than that, man, that's crazy.
I don't even know what to say about the 49ers because I see no weakness in that team unless people are injured.
When people are injured, then it doesn't look too good.
It doesn't fare off as well as it does when everybody is healthy.
Well, you know that the great equalizer come playoff time is injuries or turnovers.
And as long as they take care of them,
and the game probably got a little closer than what it should have been,
considering that they had that pick six right at the midway through the third quarter.
And, you know, see how to miss the field goal right before the half.
That really hurt them. But when you look at the 49ers, the field goal right before the half. Yeah. That really hurt him.
But when you look at the 49ers,
the way they can run the football now with Christian McCaffrey,
you mentioned Debo, George Kittle, Brandon Ayuk,
C-Mac in the passing game, Debo, offensive line is solid.
Yeah.
And when Purdy plays like this this because the thing is with him and
if you watch him you've got
to make him uncomfortable you've got to make him
make every throw every possession matter
if you let him get out and he
can relax because man
that throw to Ayuk with that
half roll and throw back that deep bang
man Ocho
that was nice you can't walk a
ball better to a player than what he did from 25
yards away that was that was that semi roll that was an unbelievable throw great catch get the ball
into the end zone but you're right i thought i thought uh kyle shanahan did a great job of
calling the game run sprinkle in christian mccaffrey on the arrow route out of the backfield. Run some more.
Hey, we're going to talk to the Debo.
The 49ers went in there, and that's what you do on a short week
against a division opponent.
You go in, you get them down early, you take care of business,
and now we don't play for 10 days.
So guess what?
You're off.
I understand you probably was away from your families on Thanksgiving.
But guess what?
You got Friday, Saturday, and Sundayay off ocho oh yeah so you're probably gonna have thanksgiving
most of these players will probably have thanksgiving tomorrow when they get home tomorrow
yeah but guess what now hey baby hey i got two days off i'll see y'all monday kyle probably have
to do it like mike you'll probably come in monday by, get your run in, get your lift in, watch the tape.
Hey, we're getting ready, getting ready for next week.
Listen, they ready. They ready. And they deserve it. They deserve. They deserve to have those days off.
The defense, the defense have what they had six sacks tonight.
Yeah. Both again, two sacks. I mean, with their hard way.
And I just yeah. Hard, great, hard grave as well.
What they're doing on both sides of the ball is commendable. It's commendable. And most of the time I've seen Shanahan continuously, continuously have great success in the offseason. Great success. I mean, offseason, great success in season. But come playoff time, can they still keep this momentum going where both sides of the ball, they're playing exceptionally well. And you mentioned about making Brock Purdy uncomfortable. But when I watch him in the pocket, he looks so relaxed.
He looks so poised.
He looks like someone that belongs there,
and he's been doing it for a very long time.
So the rush doesn't faze him.
The blitzing doesn't faze him.
And he always has those outlets for him to make sure
they stay efficient offensively.
Yeah, they look good.
They look good.
And that's what you want to see.
I think right now,
I think it's the Eagles.
When you really look at it,
we'll talk about this after we get through,
but the Eagles and the 49ers
and followed by the Cowboys
seem to be the cream of the crop in the NFC.
Ah, give that.
It seems to be the cream of the crop right now.
The Eagles,
they haven't been as dominating as they were last year.
But all I know, Ocho, is they find a way to win the ballgames.
And at the end of the day, when you don't play your best football
and you still find ways to win, as long as you're not making the mistakes,
because that's what's – hey, look, we're not running the football as well.
We're not – but as long as you're not turning it over, you could, hey, a block here,
a missed block.
Hey, we get this block.
We got to, instead of a five-yard run, we got a 25-yard run.
Instead of a 14-yard run, we got a 20-yard touchdown.
Those are things that you can overcome.
But I like the way they're playing.
But the 49ers, the 49ers look really impressive today.
The Cowboys dominate the Commanders, 45-10.
Dak Prescott, 22-32, 3-31, four touchdowns.
Clean game, no turnovers.
Touchdown, the CD Lamb, Brandon Cooks, Rico Didel, Kavante Turpin.
Cowboys are now 8-3, won five of the last six.
Let me take Dak.
Dak started the game.
When he hit Ferguson
against that Tampa 2,
you can't throw a ball
better than that over the middle to start the game.
I mean, all Ferguson did
was he's thinking,
stop.
See, Ocho, see, man, come on.
That's where he leads.
Come on now. Come on. You know good.
Come on. Let's have a look. I understand you want to troll a little bit, but let's have a real conversation. I'm an elite. Come on now. Come on. You know good. Come on. Let's have a look.
I understand you want to troll a little bit, but let's have a real conversation.
I'm not a troll.
So you're saying Dak is elite?
You know goddamn well he's elite.
Didn't you just talk about that throw he just made?
So I've seen Tim Tebow make throws.
Hold on.
Stop it.
Stop it.
So Tim Tebow, you said a throw.
Don't you do that.
You said a throw make you elite. You just mentioned a throw that Dak made that only the elite quarterback
can do consistently.
Let's stay on target.
What are we talking about?
Have you seen him make that throw consistently?
Have you seen him go deep into the playoffs consistently?
Have you not seen him lead the league in interception consistently?
We talking about the day.
That's the pass, right? We talking about the pass. I right we talk about the past that's not what you're saying we talk about the game today
phenomenal game yes but you didn't let me do what you wanted to do you want to try to troll
so i gotta take it now because i want to make sure you give dak his flowers i'm gonna make
sure you give it to him today bro are you listening ocho instead of trying to get the fan i understand you want to
get the people on your side but i said that can play well they're on my side regardless i know
and i know you like that i like that too i like when they cheer for you that means they're gonna
come to nightcap because we're gonna give them him something to laugh and talk about. That 22-32, 3-31,
four touchdowns. Clean game.
Clean game.
Clean. You can't play much
better than what he played. I saw
one throw got away from him and he did
immediately. My bad, B. Cooks. My bad.
I legend that one. I could have put that
one on you. Clean game.
Cowboys 8-3. Look,
they played the Giants twice. We know what the Giants did. We know look they played the giants twice we know what the
giants here we know what the commanders are we know what the the patriots but the thing that i
like the best about what the cowboys are doing when they're playing these teams that they're
better than and they should be they're dominating them it's not a close ball game see you beat you
beat washington 17 20 you beat was Washington 23 20 when you're so much
better talent wise now I'm like hold on what's going on but when you beat a team 45 10 you beat
a team 40 to nothing you beat a team like they're beating them it says that you know what guys
they're peaking they're rounding into shape and I know it's against inferior competition but what I want to do is to see you guys
get going
now is go time
inferior?
what do you mean inferior competition?
the Giants
Ocho stop this
Ocho you know damn well all teams aren't created equal
stop saying that this the NFL
alright
I could have swore the other 53 dudes on the other side of the team
regardless of who they were playing for were getting paid millions of dollars
to play a goddamn game.
So in other words, by your estimation,
every quarterback in the NFL is Patrick Mahomes
because all the quarterbacks get paid.
All the defensive linemen are Joey Bosa and Michael Parsons.
So what are you saying?
But I'm saying it's the NFL. It's the best of the best.
It's the goddamn 1% of the game. So to call
that team inferior just because they're losing
or they're below 500,
then the Cowboys... So all teams,
players are equal, top to bottom.
Now you just told me
the 49ers. You just told me
the 49ers.
I don't see how they lose.
When you name all those defensive players. when you name all those offensive players.
The makeup of the players on the team is what makes them that goddamn great.
So the makeup of the Giants.
Are the makeup of the Giants like that?
Are the makeup like the Patriots like that?
Are the makeup like the Commanders like that?
Why not?
You just said it.
So what is it? I need you to make up your mind.
You got to pick a side now because you keep jumping
in and over the fence. I'm not jumping
over the fence. I'm just telling you it's the elite of the elite.
It's the best of the best. And I just
don't like the inferior comment because they are still
professional players playing at the highest level.
They are the 1% in the world.
Are there not levels?
So all professionals are equal.
So everybody in the NBA is LeBron James because they're in the NBA.
No, that's an individual.
Individual.
So every team in the NBA at the time was the Golden State Warriors.
Every team in the NBA was the Chicago Bulls or the Los Angeles Lakers
because they're in the NBA.
No. I see where you're going with it, but you they're in the NBA. No.
I see where you're going with it, but you understand what I'm saying.
No, I don't.
I don't like using the word inferior when it comes to an opponent
that is also a team that is not well-constructed
to compete against the better teams.
I like that better.
I don't like the word inferior.
A team that is not constructed to the magnitude of the Cowboys having to lose because the Cowboys have the better teams. I like that better. I don't like the word inferior. A team that is not constructed
to the magnitude of the Cowboys
having to lose
because the Cowboys
have the better players.
I like that better.
I don't like the word inferior.
It makes it sound like
they don't even belong in the NFL.
How did you deduce that?
I'm just telling you
I don't like your wordplay.
I didn't like your wordplay
on discussing the fact
that a team that are below 500
that the Cowboys have been able to beat. That's all. That's all. But you can continue. That's all. I just don't like your wordplay on discussing the fact that a team that are below 500, the Cowboys have been able to beat.
That's all.
That's all.
But you can continue.
That's all.
I just don't like the word inferior.
So what would it turn?
It makes them feel less than none to me.
No, Ocho.
Ocho.
Yes, sir.
All teams aren't created equal.
Although you're in the NFL, there's a reason.
They're starters.
They're backups.
They're special teams players.
A lot of times the guys on the special teams and i started out on special teams i wasn't to the level that i needed
to be to become a starter once i became a starter that meant my play went up and i was able to be a
starter everybody everybody isn't on that level even though you're a starter that doesn't mean
i was a starting tight end but there
are tight ends on other teams that wasn't the equivalent or there's quarterbacks that wasn't
the equivalent of a start over patrick mahomes or even a dac prescott but what i'm saying is is that
just because a team is constructed of 53 and now i think they have 20 uh uh uh uh practice squad guys
it's not the same that That's all I'm saying.
I get what you're saying. You're saying, well,
you're saying that because you used the term inferior,
I'm making it seem like guys
don't belong. No, they belong.
You belong
because you know the NFL ain't no charity case.
Can you help us win?
Can you help us win now or do we believe you can
help us win down the road? That now or do we believe you can help us
win down the road right that's how you get on a roster they've got to see something like you know
what he might be a year away but i think if i keep him in the system i think this kid can be good
yeah so when i use the term no it's not it's not a knock to say oh this guy doesn't belong in the
league you're in the league.
You belong.
Now, there have been some guys that's kind of stolen over here years,
but that's neither here nor there.
But I'm just looking at the teams that they beat and how they've beaten them.
That's what I'm looking at.
Look, like I said, it's not so much, Ocho, that you win the game,
but how did you look in winning the game?
Yeah.
Go ahead. go ahead I have I know you want to I know you want to I know you want to give this big bouquet of flowers to
the Cowboys take off with it I said the deck I said the deck that's all I said the deck because
the defense is going to do what the defense has been doing obviously there have been some trip
ups there haven't been some games where they have fallen and that's that was my next question to you
I want to ask you a question okay what do you think about the teams, right?
We talk about the domination of the Cowboys.
And most of the team that they dominated
and played extremely well against
have been teams below 500 or maybe right at 500.
And the team that have winning records,
they haven't been able to beat.
So I want to know,
what is the next step for the Cowboys
and what do they need to do
to beat the team that are above 500
that they should win, which is similar to playoff games,
which they're going to have to face in about three or four more weeks.
Two of the teams that they beat, what do they have?
Outstanding offensive lines.
You look at the 49ers, you look at the Eagles.
They lost to the Cardinals, had a couple of bad plays.
The Cardinals played well above what we've seen them play with Joshua Dobbs,
Joshua Dobbs.
And we've seen Joshua Dobbs go to Minnesota and win a couple of games,
get hot and win some games.
The thing is,
is that what they were able,
what Philly was able to do,
the 49ers was able to do was to lock up that offensive line and not let
continuous pressure,
not let sacks get the purdy,
not only get the Jalen hurts.
And on the flip side,
what were they able to do? Get the Dak Prescott Eagles. Right. And, and the Purdy, not get the Jalen Hurts. And on the flip side, what were they able to do?
Get the Dak Prescott, Eagles, and the 49ers.
So you've got to be able to block their front.
You've got to.
If you can't block that front, you can't beat them.
And you've got to get Dak off that spot.
Now, Dak has done a great job.
Dak has used his legs.
Mike McCarthy's done a great job calling the game.
He's moving them out of the pocket a lot more.
He's asking him, hey, bro, if it's not their takeoff,
we've got to put more pressure on the defense
because the last year and a half,
people don't think you run anymore.
They don't think you're the way.
And I thought he looked lumbersome some of the time
when he's taken off.
But over the last couple of weeks,
Dak has looked good running the football.
He looked like he did pre-injury
before he broke that ankle.
But that's what you
got to do against the Cowboys. You got to find a way to
neutralize their pressure, but
you got to be able to get pressure.
What, the 49ers could run the football?
Eagles ran the football somewhat, but
it's hard to really say
Ocho when you're dealing with a division opponent.
And that's why I give Cowboys credit
also, because of the division opponent no matter
how bad they are they usually give
you a little fight and they gave him a little
fight for a little while but
you see the talent level just rise to the
top and you see they take off
against the Giants you see them take off against the
commanders and that's what you're supposed
to do but the Cowboys look
the Eagles to do what they did to
go in there and basically be down the
entire game and arrowhead and find a way to win that game you saw the 49ers go on the road against
a division opponent in a short week and dominate that game you see the cowboys although they come
home haven't trailed the entire season they've been tied but they haven't trailed the entire
season man that a those are the three best teams and i think
right now after watching detroit to play and we're going to get into that game a little bit
they're head and shoulders it's like eagles i would have eagles a 49ers cowboys and then down
you go detroit you know go other teams like that but right now the eagles cowboys and the 49ers
up here and no one else in the nfc is close to those teams what you think i like it i like i
mean you're right you're right you're right you're just curious i was just trying to think of what
would be the next step for the cowboys they play so they play exceptionally well in season and
they obviously in the first round they
they obviously they falter you know things go wrong they don't go the way they should as opposed
to how they do like right now and all i think about is all the time people continuously harping
and harping and harping and harping and always saying you know what this is our year this is
this is our year this is our year and this is one of the years now that i'm doing stuff like this
and shows like this with you.
Now I'm paying attention to everything.
I'm paying attention to all teams, not just the damn Dolphins and the Bengals, obviously, where I played and obviously where I grew up.
Now I'm locked in on everybody.
I'm like, oh, shit.
Right.
This is good.
Now I'm actually focusing on Dak.
I'm actually watching.
Well, I always watch all the receivers, but now I'm watching the totality of all games, offensively and defensively.
And so I'm like, you know what? The way they look look right now how in the hell they should win a goddamn Super Bowl I'm
just the way I'm looking at the landscape everything to this point if you keep this up
obviously the season it's not a sprint it's a marathon and you got to peak at the right time
the way they goddamn playing right now I'm thinking after looking at looking statistically
the team that they beat
and demolished have been below 500 so i was just curious what your answer would be on what do they
need to do to beat those teams that are good like the eagles yeah the team that they will face
in the nfc they get the eagles again in their building i think they got buffalo in their
building so we'll find out a little bit more about the Cowboys at this point.
Ocho.
Look,
we've seen Dak Prescott win a rookie of the year.
We've seen him have great regular season.
Now he's only going to be measured by the success or non-success that he
has in the post season.
Right.
I don't care if Dak throws for 5,000 yards.
Now he's got to go far in the playoffs because that's what he's up against.
Because what he's measured against is the other great quarterbacks that have won in Dallas.
The other great quarterbacks that are playing currently.
So, if you think about it, there's only a handful.
I think it's Mahomes and Rodgers are the only quarterbacks to have MVPs.
I think it's my homes and Rogers are the only ones that have Super Bowl.
Am I correct?
Oh, Jerry.
No, Jerry Goff didn't win.
Matthew Stafford won.
So there's only like two or three quarterbacks that have MVPs and Super Bowls that are active,
that are active.
So it's crazy.
Just imagine now it's going to change because they're not, listen,
at the end of the day, you can say that defense,
and they're only going to go as far as Mike on that defense,
Dak's going to have to play well in order for them to win a Super Bowl
or to win playoff games in order to get to the Super Bowl.
And I'm not saying he has to go 22 or 32 for 331 and four touchdowns,
but he's going to have to play well because in a lot of games in the postseason,
he hasn't played well.
The last two years against the 49ers, he didn't play well.
That year they came out here to the Coliseum and played the Rams.
He didn't play well.
He went to his rookie year and I, okay, you chalk that up,
but we saw him go to Lambeau, do a demolition job.
And when they came, came home, had the division ground there, and we saw him go to Lambeau, do a demolition job. And when they came, came home, had the division ground there.
And we saw what happened.
So he's only going to be measured by he's,
he's past the point of regular season.
He's at the point now.
Okay.
Now, Dak.
Okay.
Show me what you got.
Show me what you got in the post season.
That's how he's going to be measured.
And rightfully so check this out.
The Ron bland.
I haven't seen anything like this.
Hey boy, NFL single season record for interception returns for a touchdown. rightfully so. Check this out. Deron Bland. I haven't seen anything like this. Hey, boy.
NFL single season record
for interception returns for a touchdown.
He got his fifth
pick six touchdown.
Ocho, we've seen guys. We've seen
guys that, man, if he'd have held on to that,
that would have been a pick six. Oh, he'd have went to the
house. He ain't missing.
He ain't dropping nothing.
And the funny thing about it is this i want people
to understand how elite and how great this is what deron bland is doing the game of football
offensively is all about timing yes router time you have to be able to either gamble or either
guess right or be extremely great at your technique, reading your keys, using your eyes, knowing when to break, having film studies,
studying enough film to know what's coming in front of you to be able to get
a,
be able to be two steps ahead of the offense and knowing what's coming based
on down a distance, based on alignment, stuff like that. Dude,
I went back and watched all the, all the picks.
This is lined up, literal coverage,
and making a break on the ball and going
the other way with it.
There ain't no tip balls.
Oh, it's a ball in the air.
He is literally locking up,
reading his keys, making a break on the ball,
and going to the house.
It's unbelievable.
Ocho, the ball is on the out.
A lot of them have been out routes.
The ball is a tad
behind. A bit behind, that's all
you need. And you know all the out route, Ocho,
that's going to the house if you're behind
now. You better throw that ball so either he
catch it or it's incomplete out of bounds.
Incomplete out of bounds, yeah. Because if you miss,
he's on his hip now. Oh, yeah.
The question is, can he hold on to it?
And he hadn't missed. Because last
week he got one against Carolina.
The dude intercepted the ball, did a somersault,
got up off the ground and ran it back for a touchdown.
But do you understand how good you got to be?
Because here's the thing.
I can only get a pick if they throw the ball my way.
Yeah.
They keep testing him.
They keep testing him.
Yes.
I mean, the dude has more pick sixes than a lot of your top receiver
has touchdown catches.
Yeah.
Ocho.
That's crazy.
I mean, when I think of top DBs, I'm not thinking of him.
But he has to be in the defensive player to your conversation.
With those, how do you overlook him, Ocho?
You can't because he's done
something there there have been many players some of the some of the greats that have played in this
game the head of have a total of even hall of famers have a total of six or five pick sixes
throughout their career yeah career he's done it in a season alone he's at five right now right
oh you can't if you play if
you play the video game you play madden if you played madden for 17 weeks and you had a complete
season you can't get five interceptments on the goddamn video game let alone thinking about doing
it in real life right that's how good that's how amazing what he's done the feat that he's
reached and accomplished this season is crazy but you know it's a lack of respect for him because
i mean time would go games they wouldn't even throw the ball his way reavers would go game
they wouldn't throw his way champ bailey rod wilson some of the greats but you're they're
underestimating this guy he's only in his second year and so they're like oh we're gonna test him
we ain't gonna mess with stephanie gilmore who was a former defensive player of the year
oh we ain't gonna mess with him. Okay.
Pretty soon he's going to – pretty soon.
Now what you do, and the funny thing about it,
this is a great thing for them going into the postseason.
Yeah, oh, yeah.
This is a great thing going into the postseason because now what you're scared – you ain't throwing Gilmore's way,
but goddamn, we know if we throw him bland side, you know what?
There's a chance it might get picked.
But I know what teams are probably going to do
because you're not going to face receivers that are that goddamn shifty
that can actually, I call it getting open on the muscle,
where you don't need the offensive coordinator's help.
Yeah.
You don't need them to scheme you.
I need to go beat you.
Yeah, you don't have to scheme you up.
They're going to condense the splits,
condense the splits and force him to back up and find ways.
You got to use motion, do all type of tricks,
be able to throw the ball in the Cowboys.
You got to be able to do something because right now,
what he's done to this point is crazy.
It's so – listen, I'm so amazed at what he's done so far.
I had to send him a tweet.
I sent Derron Bland a tweet.
I said, man, listen, man, young fella, when the offseason comes,
we got to line that shit up because I want to see what that shit –
I want to see what that shit like.
That's how good it is. But if you think about it, from the looksseason comes, we got to line that shit up. Because I want to see what that shit like. That's how good it is.
But if you think about it, from the looks of it,
he don't look like he's not a press corner.
He's off.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But you missed.
To me, and you can attest to this being a receiver,
it's much easier when you got a dude off.
To me, all you got to do is run, step on his toes, and beat him out of transition and make a play on the ball. And he's to do it off to me all you got to do is run step on his toes and beat
him out of transition and make a play on the ball because he's still he's still picking it off he
guessing he don't know what i'm got i know what i got because i can run the speed out i can run the
end i can run the i can run the dig i can run the goal i can run the bang hey now i understand i
understand he he's trying to guess formation wise okay okay this formation this down in distance this
area of the field they like to do this
but I'm studying tape
looking at his looking at where he's
positioned oh okay
he's positioned like this you
try to take that bang away oh
okay I think I
can run the eye hey
this is how he played he played me heavy inside so
it's gonna be hard for me to get inside.
Hey, we're going to do some things now.
You're not just going to sit and just drive on the out route now.
That ain't going to happen.
Yeah, I've watched some of his tape,
and he reminds me of his transition is so quick.
His feet are so quick.
His hips are really, really good.
He reminds me of Asante Samuel.
Yeah. Asante Samuel and that
T-step. I mean, Asante, I'm looking
at Daron. I'm looking at Asante, the way
they play the game. Those first three steps
of the receiver off the ball, he
ain't even looking at the receiver.
He's looking at the quarterback. Boom.
He get eyes back on the receiver
and
he done took his three steps
and he's settling.
Because every right out of the scene where he done picked the ball, the receiver, and he done took his three steps, and he's settling. He's settling because every run out of the scene
where he done picked the ball, the receiver is giving away indicators,
oh, I'm getting ready to break.
Or they're raising to get up out the out route.
Even though the ball is behind, he reading his keys,
the goddamn receiver is giving everything away.
Everything away.
I don't mean to get into the technical stuff aspect of it,
but the thing is
ocho they take the ball in the shotgun snap and the quarterback going three steps well which is
like it's like a five or seven step drop but he's already in the gun so he's not doing conventional
up under the center taking that deep seven step drop so he's in the gun he's only taking a couple
of bounces back so he's like okay the ball finna come out yeah
if you're a quarterback and you stop that means you're getting ready to throw the football
throw the ball so why am i gonna keep backpedaling and you've already stopped your drop
yeah it's just it's just it's just it's just common sense i see the way you angle i see the
way you angle okay you you're getting ready to break on something i gotta step on your toes
and then i got i got i got to stack you because yeah i can't let you i just can't let you run me
and push me to the side because that's where a lot of receivers make the mistake oh joe they run the
go route and instead of stacking him putting him in a trail position you let him run beside you
and all he's gonna do is just put listen and then say you know your quarterback gotta throw it
listen perfect you gotta throw a perfect ball because the sideline is that the sideline is side, all he's going to do is just put and then say, you know, your quarterback got to throw it. Listen, perfect.
You got to throw a perfect ball because the sideline
is that the sideline is his best friend.
That's another defender. It is. You got
you got to get into him. Everybody, everybody
trying to use speed. They trying to just widen
the release and get out. All they're doing is
ride him, stand right on the hip and
most and those that can play the ball, they look back
and those that can't, they just play the hands.
Nope. I'm trying to put you. I'm trying to stack you and
put you in a trail position.
So now, the quarterback don't have
this little spot right here.
No, he got all this, all this,
all this because you're in a trail position. You're behind
me. But, you know, like
you said,
it's kind of like
when you're in
television, Ocho, and they teach you how
to read the prompter,
they always tell you, you got more time than you think.
Yeah.
And that's one of the things I would tell the wide receivers.
You got more time than you think.
Time than you think, yeah.
Don't rush it.
Because you rush it, quarterback, and think about it.
Plus, Ocho, you got to let the quarterback hear the gun.
You got to get the ball.
Yeah.
So you –
You got to get that clock.
He ain't got the ball yet.
Yeah. He ain't got the ball yeah yeah he got the ball yeah and every
and every and the funny thing about it and this is no no no no no you know just my receivers i
know y'all gonna see everybody doing the same release they hezy hezy skip skip off the line
and just go hezy hezy skip skip and then go and the dbs ain't falling for it all they do is hit a shoulder pad and turn and run
and ride you and turn and run everybody doing the same the same thing everybody yeah yeah everybody
tried to do that davante that's the davante adams that's the basically hezy hezy skip skip and go
and the thing see now they don't let you get that physical because back when i
first got into the league if you hands it you run through your chest man they man they'll choke you
to death man listen and they come right up they come right up to here you you ever had you ever
you ever played against dale carter yeah dc yeah oh he was he was at kansas city he actually became
a teammate of mine in 99 but in kansas City, back, you know, Ocho,
guys were what they call quick jam or freeze technique.
Yeah.
So they'd be up there.
They'd be up there, let a press position,
and then all of a sudden you see him open up like, okay, he fit.
Uh-uh.
And come right back to you.
Man, Dale Carter, man.
I done seen Dale.
I had to see Dale one time, man, when he was with the Ravens.
And Dale jump jammed me, man, one time.
It was a blocking play and caught me in my neck and I couldn't even move.
I couldn't even move.
I was stuck in one spot.
And he opened up like the snap was coming.
I'm thinking, oh, it's a run play.
He good.
He finna bail out.
Man, that ball snapped, man.
He was in my chest so goddamn fast because i was
relaxed because i knew it was a run play never again yeah oh yeah never again but guys don't
don't quick jam or freeze technique nearly as much as they used to back in the day i don't even think
the cornets even allow them to play that technique so they're not out of position because you know
if you miss yeah you you you you asked out oh yeah yeah because all
he gonna do is he gonna throw that head up uh on that i think it was the second to the last
touchdown maybe the last touchdown back had hit a turkey leg in a salvation army army thing right
right when they scored a touchdown that went got the plastic bag had the turkey leg in there took
a bite of it yeah now he gonna get fined extensively, but I like to sell it.
I like to sell it. I love it.
So what did you think of Dak's celebration
and what was your favorite celebration?
You know what? The Salvation
Army with the turkey leg in there was perfect.
Obviously with the day being Thanksgiving,
the NFL office,
this is what the fans want. This is what the fans
want to see. I don't think you should fine for stuff like this,
but he's probably going to get a significant fine.
Because it's a prop.
Remember they say, Ocho, they don't want you to use props.
Yep, yep, yep.
No props on the field.
I wonder who started that.
But needless to say, that was a great celebration.
I enjoyed it.
And it goes with the theme of the day.
It goes with the theme of the day. And goes with the theme of the day and the NFL should
realize to this point you have to be a little bit
more lenient allowing the players to have a
little fun because this is great engagement
and fun and entertainment for the fans.
This is the entertainment business and
stuff like that is exactly what the fans pay
those high price tickets for.
You remember Joe Horn brought that cell
phone. Joe Horn
started y'all with that foolishness.
Oh, yeah.
Dude actually had to flip up under the
goal post, scored a touchdown.
That was classic.
That was classic. Yeah, I think that was
Paul Tagliabue
was in when that actually happened. Yeah.
Because I think I might have still
been in the league. So, yeah.
Daniel just donated.
Does Dak have to win a Super Bowl to be considered a Hall of Fame quarterback?
No, there have been quarterbacks that's – they're not many that's in the Hall of Fame.
Warren didn't win a Super Bowl.
Warren Moon, he didn't win a Super Bowl.
But for the most part, Dan Marino didn't win a Super Bowl.
But Danny is thought of as an elite quarterback.
Danny is one of the 100 greatest players.
He's on the 100th anniversary team.
I think they picked seven quarterbacks.
I think they picked seven.
Because if I'm not mistaken, I know Montana, Manning, Brady, Elway, and Marino.
I know it's five.
It might have been.
No, Starback is one.
So six.
So I think they picked six or seven quarterbacks.
All of them with the exception, I think Danny won at least one Super Bowl.
Right.
They picked seven.
They picked 10 quarterbacks.
They picked 10 quarterbacks. They picked 10 quarterbacks.
What about Troy?
Aikman got to be in there somewhere, huh?
No, Aikman, he wasn't one of the 100 greatest.
Okay.
Otto Graham was one, wasn't he?
Otto Graham?
Otto Graham.
For the Cleveland Browns, yeah.
But back then, they didn't have Super Bowl.
They had championships.
Slinging Sammy Ball.
Johnny U. But Johnny won a Super Bowl they had championships slinging Sammy Bob um Johnny you but John but Johnny won a Super
Bowl remember he also the biggest upset when the uh the Jets upset the Colts uh but back then he
also won a championship so yeah I I don't I don't think he has I don't think he has to but he's
gonna have to play and a lot of these guys if they didn't win the Super Bowl and
and and I think I don't think uh Warren Warren didn't win an MVP but Danny was an MVP in 1984
first guy to throw he threw 48 touchdowns which was unheard of in that day threw for 5,000 yards
which would be the equivalent of maybe even 6,000 yards considering the rules back then how you could
attack the quarterback how you could punish the receiver.
Oh, he would, in today's game, he would throw probably for 6,000 yards.
The Packers beat the Lions 22-29-22.
Jordan Love, 22-32, 268, three touchdowns.
Christian Woods, Christian Woods.
Christian Watson, five catches, 94 yards and a touchdown.
The Packers had a first-quarter defensive touchdown
on a sack fumble caused by Rashawn Gary.
On Jerry Goff, Jonathan Owens,
who happens to be Simone Biles' husband,
scooped and scored 27 yards.
Gary picked up three sacks in the win.
Jerry Goff was 29 of 44, 332, two touchdowns,
but he lost three fumbles.
And remember, he got
away with it. He had four turnovers last week.
They had four turnovers, and they
came back and win. You see? You gotta
be careful. You gotta be careful
because you step up in
competition, you turn the
ball over, it's gonna bite you in the butt. And it
really bit him in the butt. And I thought it was a little bit
early for Dan Campbell
to go for it on fourth down especially
in your own area of the field
because now if they stop you
they didn't feel go range
they stopped you didn't feel go range Ocho
and so but what do you take
away from what you like about Jordan Love because
he made some throws today Ocho
yeah he made some throws today
that I'm like hold on
did you see him challenge i saw him last year and
i said i'm not saying he's going to be aaron rogers because i think aaron rogers you can make
a case aaron rogers one of five greatest quarterbacks there as far as arm talent
durant yeah he i mean you're talking about he marino mahomes as far as just arm talent just
throwing the football he's there but Jordan Love made some throws last year
I said hold on he reminds you a lot of a young Aaron Rodgers the way he can drop down the arm
angles in which he can release the ball he made some throws today I think the Matt LaFleur I think
Brian Gutekas the general manager and I think the CEO Mark Murphy, they're like, okay. Okay. Okay. Okay.
I think
the fact of the matter is with them
which made letting Aaron
Rodgers go and understanding what they had
waiting in the helm
to take over this organization in Jordan
Love. Obviously, he can throw from multiple angles.
He can throw every throw from either hash.
He's one of those quarterbacks in NFL
where the ball can be on the left hash.
He can throw a 20, 18-yard comeback all the way to the opposite side of the field.
That's the type of arm strength and arm talent that he does have.
And obviously it showed today with some of the things that he was able to do.
Christian Watson, the receivers have been really up and down,
up and down for the Packers, you know, throughout the season.
But when they get it together, when they continue to mesh,
especially in the offseason, they get together and they come back next year,
they have a nice squad.
They have a nice squad offensively.
They young, the Ochoa and the receivers.
You got to like them.
You look at Christian Watson, Romeo Dobbs.
Romeo Dobbs, man, the real deal.
They all the real deal.
I would like a little bit more out of the running game
so it doesn't put the onus of everything having to be done
at the quarterback position and having to put the game in his his hands a little bit more efficient a little bit more efficiency
in the run game i think they're gonna be fine obviously on the on the on the flip side of things
this is a game where the damn lions couldn't overcome the turnover no you can't you can't
you can't turn three times one time yes one time you know you can overcome but three and you lose all three of them that that that's that's not gonna work that's not gonna be that you can't turn three times. One time, yes. One time, you know you can overcome. But three, and you lose all three of them, that's not going to work.
That's not going to be that.
You can't play winning football like that.
And the bigger problem is that they got points off your turnovers
because they got a scoop and scored.
Their offense wasn't on the field.
At least you can say, well, our defense came on the field
and we could have stopped them and we got to return it right back over.
But no, they got seven points out of your possession.
And you can't.
It's hard enough.
It's hard enough for a team to win games when your offense isn't scoring.
But when your offense turns the ball over and you let the opposing team defense score on those possessions, it becomes even more difficult.

I ain't never had nobody give me $100, boy.
Especially right now, shoot. Times is rough, boy. oh joe i don't know if you saw this real
one in an hbo in the hbo sport interview that aired tuesday ursa was asked if the arrest of
2014 driving under the influence of prescription drugs and some subsequent guilty plea which
resulted in a six-game suspension from the nfl were a low point to which he responded no not
really because the arrest was wrong.
Ursa went on to accuse the Indianapolis suburban police of Carmel police
department of profiling him.
I'm prejudiced against because I'm a rich white billionaire.
If I was just an average guy down the block,
they would not be pulling me over.
They would not be pulling me in.
Of course not.
Ursa said he had recently had hip surgery at the time,
which made
it difficult to walk and required him to take prescribed medication why the hell are you driving
in he also said he played guilty to the misdemeanor because he just wanted to get it over with
ursula asked if he knew how this this statement would sound to the public which he replied i don't
care what it sounds like it's the truth you know You know, Andrea talking about Andrea, Andrea Mitchell.
I could give it down what people think or how anything or how anything sounds or sounds like the truth is the truth.
And I know the truth.
Then he went on to tweet at first tape to first take all night.
If you don't give a damn.
And so I'm asking if you didn't care, why are you tweeting that first take?
So here's some of the facts of his arrest.
He was pulled over at 11.40 p.m. by a police officer
who observed a vehicle traveling 10 miles an hour
in a 35 miles an hour zone.
The car frequently made stops.
It would come to a complete stop on an open road,
no stop sign,
no traffic light.
He was found to have multiple prescription
drugs in his car. Xanax,
Darbyshire, Valium, Ambien,
Ativan, according to the
arrest. He also
had $29,000 and a Toyota
Highlander he was driving. Most of the cash
found in the briefcase, laundry bag,
which contained prescription drugs.
Hold on. I'm not done. Let me tell you.
A little fact.
He also, one time,
he had 400
tablets of Oxycontin
during one
24-day period.
He had 120
prescriptions filled in a single year. In 1995, Indianapolis police
found his name among records of a doctor suspected of running a pill mill. So let this, let this
people at home, I just want you to hear what I'm saying. He once got 400 Oxycontin pills in a 24-day span.
And I think the pills were, what, 30 or 40 milligrams?
They were 40 milligrams.
Oxycontin.
I'm lost a little bit, Unc.
I'm lost a little bit.
So you got to catch me up.
I'm not one that
really takes pills or really gets stuff over the counter so i need to have a better understanding
on what oxycontin is and what it does and why he had so many it's very addictive and it's a pain
it's a painkiller it's highly in pain i'm assuming this is from his hip surgery then okay here's the
thing he had the hip surgery in June of one year.
He was pulled over in April of the following year.
Oh,
Joe,
see how I can speak to a little something about this here.
Your boy had both of his hips replete paired.
Okay.
So you know about it.
The one thing they told me,
they said,
they said,
we would like for you to take seven to 10 days before you drive.
Yes. Yes.
Okay.
My head hard.
I ain't listen,
but here's the thing.
Oh,
Joe,
I had the first surgery.
I had a luxury action and they weren't certain that the leisure reaction
didn't come from the pain medication that they gave me.
So the next hip surgery,
guess what?
Oh,
Joe,
they gave the medication. I didn't take it. They didn't give me any pain medication that they gave me. So the next hip surgery, guess what? Oh, Joe, they gave the medication.
I didn't take in.
They didn't give me any pain medication.
They put me under what I wrote.
I took no pain medication.
So if you know you had hips or first of all,
it's a whole,
it's a whole thing about it.
It's June.
So it's almost a year.
Oh, Joe, my second one, I was walking unassisted in seven days.
The first one took me 12 days.
So if you have hip surgery in June of one year,
how the hell are you still stumbling and falling
and you're in pain the following year and 10 months later?
Well, I think it's maybe because of his age i'm not
sure i'm not gonna give him i'm just jim ursae at the time of the surgery was 52 yeah oh oh he oh
he was young oh he was young jim ursae is 64 years old yes 64 ocho he don't look it but he's 64 right I'm 55 the search hold up he had to search so
2013 so he was 54 he was a year younger he's a year younger than what I am right now I had my
surgeries at 53 and 54 hey it's kind of crazy some of the statements you read about him not
caring obviously not caring and being that he's being profiled because he's a rich billionaire.
I mean, listen, there are a set of rules that we all have to live by.
You know, those rules are the same for everybody in regards to who you are.
Oh, Joe, yes. You know what would have happened if you or I try to get 400 Oxycontin pills in 24 days.
Do you know what would happen to you and I if we got 127 prescriptions filled in a year?
Do you know what's going to happen?
And do you know what's going to happen to the doctor?
He's going to lose his life.
Can you tell me what would happen if you pay for him?
I mean, he has a 120 prescription.
Ain't no doctor going to write him.
First of all,
that's over the top.
Do you understand how many,
120 years old Joe?
That's 10 scripts a month.
Okay.
Right.
You get 10 prescriptions per month.
That's 120.
Right.
Okay.
Of,
of Oxycontin,
of Valium,
of,
of,
of all,
what was the drugs he had?
Put it up on my screen,
Ash.
Put the drugs that he got scripts for.
I'm learning
something new. Shit. The only thing I know
about, all I know about is Tylenol and Advil.
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah. He was taking stuff
stronger than Tylenol and Advil. But the
problem that I have is that he
tried to say, well, I come from nothing.
Bro, Bob
Ursae was his dad. He owned
the Indianapolis, first of all, they were the Baltimore
Colts.
He went to SMUu smu wasn't cheap then when he went to school it's not cheap now cheap now yeah he got named general manager of the of the baltimore indianapolis coast one month after they
left in the middle of the night they left baltimore they packed up i remember that went to indy when it was he got yeah he got he got named general manager and for him to say he pulled
himself up by his bootstraps bro do you understand that you were wearing christian louboutin bootstrap
boots yeah do you understand see he's the type of guy that he's on third base but he didn't hit a triple
right oh that's a good one that's a good analogy right just already there that that's a good that's
a good analogy right there and i'm not saying and he talked about you know i i just hate bro
do you understand the perks that comes along with being wealthy, white and a billionaire?
Oh, so we get some perks and we wealthy and black, but we don't get those kind of perks.
No, it's different. Listen, and obviously when you're rich in general, when you're rich in general, at some point when you get enough money, at times we lose it. We lose a sense of reality. We lose a sense of reality and we somewhat become
or feel invincible to the fact that we get to abide by our own set of rules and we are different
than everybody else. And many times when we come or we have a run in with the law, they will humble
you and you bring you back down to earth to help you realize that you are no different than anybody
else regards to income or regards to how many zeros you have in your bank account yeah and most of the time if after enough red flags and you still not listen
the man upstairs will humble you himself yeah look if he just oh joe if he just go ahead and
take his punishment said look i learned my lesson i've been dealing with addiction and addiction is, it is, it's a disease and it's something that I fight daily.
I'm okay.
I'm okay with that.
But bro,
you were not signaled out.
Here's some of the scripts.
He had Laura,
Laura said,
Vicaprofen Xanax and Klonopin.
What?
Yes.
Yes.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I don't know what, but don't worry about a lot of the people
out there understand what it is you ain't just getting those ocho so is this is the help with
with the pain the pain he's going through he's been to rehab he's trying to make it seem like
he was dealing with and i'm not saying that he wasn't each person is different but if you know you had
hip surgery why are you taking drugs and driving ignorance of the law is not an excuse you can't
park in front of a fire hydrant and say well judge i didn't see the fire hydrant he's gonna tell you
ignorance of the law is not an excuse you know you were told what when you take i don't know
anybody out there you know when you when they tell you about taking
painkillers what do they say do not drive or operate heavy machinery that's all it make you
dry thank you make you drowsy thank you okay yes okay yes normally when you take painkillers you
sit your ass on the couch and you go lay down right who who thought like you know what man i
got i'm in so much pain
let me pop some of this
Oxycontin
let me talk to Ms. Darvish
and I'm going to go for a drive
so let it sink in
what your hip hurting
got to do with you driving 10 miles an hour
and stopping on an open highway
and they came out
can you give me the report
what did the Carmel
police say?
And normally
you would have thought, would it be
in Indianapolis and would it be in the police?
And with him being Jim Irsay,
most of the time, you let somebody go
of that magnitude, especially a name like that.
That is a representation of not just the
Colts, but Indianapolis.
Yeah.
Oh,
Joe,
it must've been bad.
He must've been like really messed up,
like drowsy or something.
Well, he soon he got a car,
but hopefully when you,
when we're going to show the video,
we're like,
when we,
when people see this,
see this,
we're going to see the video.
That ain't no pain.
Cause I,
like I said,
I drove three,
three days after my second search, but i wouldn't take it but i didn't take any pain medication
oh that's crazy but i but i also understood that they had already told me that mr sharp
you're not going to give you anything because i had a very bad allergic reaction. I had to go to UCLA medical emergency for the first time.
Right.
Okay.
Tim Green, the now retired Carmel, Indiana police chief,
told USA Today Sports on Wednesday.
Hold on.
Hold on.
Okay.
I would just hope that he would reevaluate what he said there
because he knows that's not the case in this manner.
Let's just say some of the comments that he made without any type of evidence or proof.
Bro, them people ain't pulling.
Man, come on.
Bro.
Right.
With those kind of prescriptions, because normally you got to have who?
Ocho, do you know how many 400
Oxycontin pills are if you got
that you go into jail
you're going to jail with 400 pills
in 24 days
for having pills
that are just for pain that's pain medicine
you ain't no doctor
writing you 400 of them
do you know see you don't understand
but when you get out there I want you to google oxycontin and see how addictive it is the pills is the the pill is the new thing
now that's what people got people walk around here like zombies the pills is the new thing people
selling get prescriptions and they selling them all right i'm i'm lost a little bit so they selling
the pill so the people that are that are purchasing the, they're in some sort of pain or they're just addicted to having it because it gives you a certain feeling.
People will buy the pain or whatever you're going to. OK, let's just say I get a prescription.
I got a prescription pill for Oxycontin, Darvacet, uh, hydrocodone. Hey man, man, I heard you, uh, you got some pills. What'd you need?
Hey, let me get a, what you got? I got some Oxycontin.
I got some hydrocodone. I got Darvish said, got what you need,
what you need. Okay. Let me get that. I'll sell them to you.
Now you walk around here like a zombie because you they not for you and you
taking them in abundance people taking them they're crushing them they snorting them they
doing all kind of stuff that's the thing that so here's the thing so it was never a problem
it's going to become illegal then it's been illegal pill mills are illegal he was he was
getting scripts you can't get script you can't get 15 that's a pill mill that's
illegal normally doctors lose their jobs if they do that they'll get this bar they'll get this oh
so so when you get them in bulk it's illegal but as long as you get them and it's prescribed for
you to actually take then it's not illegal based on small amounts ain't no show do you understand
how many 400 pills are?
I don't think you grasped the magnitude of 400 pills in 24
days. I know you got to
give it to me in a different terminology
on something that I understand and know about.
Okay, you know about Vicodin.
You saw a player, your teammates take Vicodin.
A Percocet. So imagine
your teammate getting 400 Vicodin
which is Oxycontin
is probably two to three times stronger than those.
Getting 400 of those in 24 days.
Okay.
I think I got it.
Yeah.
So you got teammates.
You know your teammates took.
They took those percocet and those things of that nature
because that's what they gave the football player.
Okay.
He had 424 days.
Money talks.
I mean, obviously, people are that type of wealth.
That's my point.
They live a different lifestyle,
and they have access and resources to any and everything.
Thank you.
In bulk.
But he was trying to say that being a wealthy white billionaire
was some kind of drawback
oh he profiled he clearly understands the privileges that that comes with
isn't just this profile of the wealthy right bro i promise you if i get on wilshire boulevard
and and they go get some call and the police come behind me that's a busy intersection I'm going 10 miles an hour and then all of a sudden
I just stop
and then I take off again
and I ain't at no traffic light
I'm not at a stop sign a four way intersection
a two way intersection I'm just
stopping in the middle of the middle for no reason
no joke what you think they gonna do
okay
every time
okay so I just I just wish you just left well enough alone just own the mistake
that you made you have some issues you've been dealing with this for a long period of time
and i understand uh that addiction is real i just had a conversation with rick flair who lost his
son reed and you can see here the pain and the hurt of losing a child and so i empathize
for anybody that's going through and if get please get the help that you need but in this situation
i just wish jim ursae would have left this alone because he's not gonna get any sympathy because
he's trying to like pretend like he had like he did nothing and they just profiled him
and just pulled him over.
Right. So
is he in trouble now?
No. What happened all the way back then?
No, no, no. He was suspended for six
games. So he already did
his time. He already did his time.
Okay, okay, okay. And so
my thing was, I don't even know why he
wanted to rehash that don't you
you served your time you served your penalty why go back down that avenue okay yeah i saw i saw the
tweet i saw the first take tweet i didn't really understand where it was coming from i i didn't
know some other stuff about his his siblings died in a car crash and some of that's true
some of that's not true um i think one of his one of his siblings had special
needs they end up dying in 1999 and it wasn't in a car crash so he misspoke on a lot of stuff i'm
not saying he's lying i'm just saying he misspoke the truth on some things um right but i don't
understand why he would want to go down that path anyway. That's probably a very traumatic experience
and try to re-drudge that up to elicit sympathy.
But he can just miss me on that one.
I don't know him that well.
I've met him on several occasions,
but he gets no sympathy from me on this one.
Greg Popovich tells the Spurs crowd to stop booing Kawhi.
Kawhi was booed often during Wednesday game,
particularly when he's at the free throw line. The
boos were so loud and intense that Pop got
on the microphone at the scorer's table
and implored the crowd to stop booing.
Excuse me for a second.
Can we stop all the booing? Let the guys
play. Have a little class. It's not
who we are. Knock off the booing.
It didn't work. The boos grew louder.
They didn't listen to pop? Nope.
See?
He opposed the player, Ocho.
Yeah, but fans are fickle. He was
a spur. Yeah.
He was a spur. He gave
his all in all.
Do you remember how he left?
Do you remember how he left?
See?
See what happened when I don't pay attention to basketball
was there something wrong with his knee right it was something wrong yes yes i see i remember and
he set out for a lot of games right he said he had he had a quad tendinosis yeah see so it was
something that was going on in his quad and the spurs doctor said it was OK. Kawhi and his doctor says, no, it wasn't.
And the thing that and see, this is what good coaches do.
Coach could always iron fist Timmy D.
He could always iron fist Tony Parker or Manu.
And he thought the same approach would work for Kawhi.
But if you look at Kawhi's demeanor.
Ocho, you can't
do him like that. You can look at his
demeanor. That ain't
gonna work with him.
And
he's not a confrontational
guy. And I told him at the time,
I remember when all this was going
on, I said, Kawhi, never play for them again.
Oh, they'll work
it out. I said, no, he won't. How did you they'll work it out i said no he won't how did
you how did you know they wouldn't play because the doctors know the doctor didn't side with him
nope because something that tony parker said when tony parker said my my leg was tony parker tore
his quad the previous year and came back to play before kawaii And he said in front of the media that my injury
was a thousand times worse than Kawhi.
Why would he do that?
There it is.
Why would you even compare injuries to
two completely different body types and people
heal completely different and as your
teammates, you don't want to throw your teammate under the bus
like that. And I think they have a team
meeting or something and ask him, when are you going and i think they have a team meeting or something and ask him when are you going to play they have a team meeting and
they put him under the lights and once that came out ocho i've been you know i've been pretty good
in locker rooms i have a pretty good gauge of how to deal with people some people you pat them on
the back some people you kick them in the butt some people you'll be facetious with i mean i'm
used to tell guys hell my grandma could have caught that one bro how bad shot you crazy but yeah you know who
to play with like that though but you know i'm getting my point across i'm like right but some
guys you ride some guys you pat on the back some guys you're like bro god damn we all getting paid
here right right right right you can't talk to everybody the same and the mark of a leader is to know who
to talk to how to talk to when to talk to them right and so i i just i just knew i just knew
that wasn't gonna it said it didn't work the brew the booze grew louder he said he didn't he said he
wasn't bothered by the booze and he said if i don't have that spur jersey on um they're probably
gonna boo me for the rest of my career you're right you're right i don't he I don't have that Spurs jersey on they're probably going to boo me for the rest of my career. You're right.
He probably don't even care though.
He don't care. I know you
remember when LeBron went back to
Cleveland. Do you remember when he went back
to Cleveland from Miami? Oh yeah.
That first game I remember that.
Yes. I watched that.
They didn't give two you know what.
They didn't care. They didn't have it.
But they built for that, though.
People like LeBron, people like Kawhi.
I ain't even heard Kawhi talk yet.
I heard him laugh before.
I ain't even heard him talk yet.
So I know he don't even care.
Yeah, I know he don't care about none of that.
It don't affect him in any way.
But if I'm an opposing player, I've been very fortunate.
I left Denver, and I went back.
They cheered me. They didn't boo me. Even when i called a pass i don't remember them booing me when i called a pass i left left baltimore go back
to denver they cheered me i don't remember them booing me even when i called a pass uh but that's
different i mean you know the thing was is that uh i didn't want to leave either place but
circumstances is beyond my control.
And the fans took that into consideration.
Hey,
and yeah,
that's business.
It is.
Tiana Taylor filed for divorce from Iman Shumpert,
alleged infidelity and mental abuse.
According to legal documents filed in Georgia,
Tiana felt pressure to intentionally dim her light for her husband to try to
have a harmonious and peaceful marriage.
She accuses him of being extremely emotional and mentally abusive towards her, exhibiting cruel treatment and selfishness, crashing her Rolls Royce only to flee the scene, evading a second DUI.
She also claims Iman was jealous whenever she'd get the spotlight, asking her not to work, then gripping that she wasn't earning enough money for their family.
Damn.
While she downplayed the talk of infidelity in her public comments
earlier this fall, writing to be 1,000% clear,
infidelity ain't one of the reasons for our departure.
TMZ reports cheating was very much a part of the divorce filing.
What's your take on that, Ocho?
Because you're kind of in a situation where a rail earns a nice living.
Yeah.
And go ahead.
I want to hear your talk.
I'm going to follow.
I'm going to go after you.
I want to hear what you got to say.
The first thing I was getting ready to say is the divorce rate.
The divorce rate is super high high i'm not even to
speak on tiana taylor and what iman went through how do we fix the issue how do we come down to
the issue because the same things keep coming up over and over and over and over infidelity is
always a problem um uh money has always been a problem um else everybody has a different factor so many people
are divorcing and every time people divorce there's always a different reason and most of the
time the same common things always come up so the thing I want to know in the chat in the chat
that you got you guys listen I think this is a great topic and I'm glad we're touching on this
how do we fix the problem how do we get to the root of the problem what really is the problem
in general is marriage is the traditional marriage what something that we all can do or do you do you
do the type of marriage that that works for you it's it's it's um it's it's really a loaded
question when you think about it when you think um it's it's really a loaded question when you think about it
when you think about it everybody portrays they're so happy when you look at pictures of iman and
tiana everybody looks so happy we look at other people that have been that have been divorced
they look at pictures everybody's so happy but we never know what's going on behind closed doors
how do we make marriage work that's what i want to know how do we make it work forget the part of we're only we're seeing the finished product people ending people being over but what they show and
what what they perceive to be is they they always show that they're happy and things are going
perfect how do we fix the root of the fucking problem so it doesn't end in the goddamn well
that's what that's that's what i want to know well that's what you do on social media
everybody wants to do stuff on social media.
Post this, post that, or you did this, you do that.
For me, you know, the thing is, Ocho, marriage, divorce used to be frowned upon.
Man, it had to get really, really bad.
Really, really, really, really bad for a man to leave the marriage or a woman to leave the marriage it's too easy now i mean hey
you get mad you come home i don't like this and boom i'm gone right my thing is is that if what
she's saying is true and i don't know that to be true yeah i don't i would be i would be honored
if my partner my wife my significant other had income because you have to understand at one point in time, I was the dominating figure in the relationship.
Right. And and I know it's hard. I mean, you know, and I look at I look at Tabitha.
Hey, Tabitha Chance, I know you watch because chance commented on my thing i look at chance and tabitha
he he cool with being a stay-at-home dad he runs everything from from the background he's cool with
that she loves that man immensely there's nothing that man could ask tab for that she wouldn't get
or give him but he's okay with that amon you got to realize, Amon was an NBA player, first-round draft pick of the Knicks.
He won an NBA championship.
He was at the height.
Deanna had to take the...
I think it was something about taking
pictures. Now, you don't normally
see that with a married couple.
I couldn't imagine
someone, LeBron
and Savannah, walking the red carpet
and they said, okay okay savannah can you step
to the side we just want to take a picture lebron now your girlfriend that's one thing but that's
that man that's his wife right so and and i you know what that i get it it's kind of like stedman
oprah oh stephan is fine in the background in the background yeah uh cory uh and chris jenner right he cool with the background
right i think it's harder for a man if you've been at this level ocho you've been in the spotlight
you've been the center of attention all of a sudden it's like hey we want to take a picture
your wife and not you we want to speak to your wife i want to speak to your wife and not you right right i don't i haven't been
i'm cool i'm cool i mean my thing is like i i think for me like when i go into if i go into
a relationship okay are you gonna work you want to work you're working do you i mean okay you're
gonna continue to work okay cool this cool. This is what I do.
Hey, save yours.
I mean, every relationship I've been in,
my girlfriend ain't going to pay for anything.
Ain't helping no rent.
I take over her bills.
You got a car note?
I got that.
You got an apartment?
I got that.
Come on now.
The only thing you pay for, your cell phone bill, you pay that.
That's all you got right okay hey you know my um my mom want to come my family's coming okay i got him i'll fly him in
i have a car service pick him up yeah well well you the one boy well you that boy huh you hear
me i'm just i'm just i'm just old-fashioned i do a lot i ain't opening no doors
so don't ask me i ain't gonna go around and open your door to get in the car or something like that
open your damn door but for most of the stuff everything else i'm gonna take care of it
that's just that's just that's just the way i am i'm not saying if another guy doesn't do that
i'm not saying he's wrong i know some guys guys like, hey, oh, shot, man, she got to pay for something.
I'm good. I'm good. So that's just the way I handle it.
I've never been in a situation where I've dated someone.
I guess that was the equivalent of as far as facial recognition, name recognition as I am. But let's just say for the sake of argument,
I dated someone that was the equivalent of me.
And all of a sudden I wasn't doing what I was doing.
Could I be okay with that?
Yeah.
Hell yeah.
I want to stay home, babe.
You go and go on a red carpet by yourself.
I'll be here waiting.
Right, right, right, right.
Cause I, I ain't, I ain't,
I don't do stuff to try to get attention.
That's that's, I don't do it.
I mean, I used to post my dogs all the time.
I mean, I took a picture today.
Jordan took a picture of my dog today, and I looked at the comment.
Man, you got the dog at the table?
Yes.
Because I promise you, everybody that I would want to come to my house
going to come to my house.
You can't find five people that's ever been to my house
and had a meal
that wasn't family
bucket burns
are probably the only two guys that's ever
been to my house while food has been
prepared sit down and eat
and if you're not
when I date women say look
the dog,
they're going to get on the bed.
They're going to get on the couch.
They're going to sleep in the bed.
The two little ones,
they're going to sleep in the bed.
I'm going to feed them table food.
If you've got a problem with the dogs,
let me know.
Now we can't,
we can't do anything.
I don't care how fine you are.
I don't care how much money you make.
Dogs ain't going to work.
You,
they live here. You visit it.
And you probably won't come
back.
You like that? So them dogs come before any
woman that tries any of your kingdom.
Any.
Boy, you tough, boy.
I ain't tough.
I'm just saying, boy, you tough.
That's a good rule.
But again,
this is great. This is a great conversation, especially for the people
watching people that are, that are couples, people that are already married, that are
watching people that are maybe in, even in relationships. I think it all comes down to,
to the one thing that a lot of us as, as men throughout, throughout time
that we've all struggled with and being able to keep a woman
happy long term. What does that entail? Is it possible to do? Many have failed. Many have tried
and many have failed. As for me, I think about my relationship in general and some of the ones
I've had in the past. And what I've done now, I've come to the point to where I take bits in how others operate in relationships and in marriages and some of the things they do.
I'm damn near somewhat of a copycat, if that makes sense.
People that are married, Ryan Clark.
I copy some of the things that Ryan does.
He probably don't even know I even watch him and watch how he moves, watch it, watch how he conducts himself.
Brother Shannon Crowder,
a very,
very good friend of mine,
very good friend of mine who I try to steal as much as I can from.
And I absorb everything he does,
the way he moves,
the way he operates,
the way he speaks,
the way he conducts himself with his wife,
with his woman,
Duke,
Duke,
you know, you know,
Duke,
remember Duke,
Duke played the lead for a
little bit duke i n i am nacho did i say that right yeah yeah yeah that man duke man if there was
as a man you're not supposed to want to be like anybody but if there was one person
i wish i had that discipline earlier in life if i had his discipline and the way he moves and the
way he operates when it comes to dealing with his woman and not playing no games in any other area, if it's not predicated to what he has going on in her, boy, listen.
But I'd trade anything in the world to operate and move like that young fella there, man.
That's somebody I look up to and they inspire me.
As far as that, I try to keep myself surrounded by people that are in situations like myself.
You know, so temptation, it's crazy out here.
So I think surrounding myself by people who are in the same situation as me that want to move and that are going in the right direction as me.
As far as being in a relationship, trying to build and all the other good stuff you know hanging out
with single people you know what you end up doing you end up doing single people things yes i i think
the thing is marriage is so individual you have to do what works for you ocho um yeah maybe it's
going on vacation maybe it's doing you know hey y'all work out together y'all go to church together
there because it's kind of like parenting because each child is different each relationship
is different so what works for you in rail might not work for me and my partner or it might not
work for someone else and their partner so to try to say okay i'm gonna do this this and this
because the old adage is okay uh the girl like well i won't uh such and such you know he takes
his kids to school okay maybe he's in a position where he can go to go.
But let me ask you a question. In the process of taking the kids to school, is he taking you on vacation?
Is he paying for everything? So you have to factor things like that in Ocho.
So because you can't get everything, there is no perfect husband.
There is no perfect wife. There is no perfect girlfriend or significant other. There is no such thing. We can strive to get it. But by the way, I'm asking, what is perfection?
Yeah, it ain't no such thing. So we strive for something that no one because.
Oh, 300. Why? Who said 300 had to be the perfect score in bowling?
Who had to say 27 strikeouts had to be? So why couldn't it be 40?
Right. So but for me me i look at a situation
no choice like look this works for me if it doesn't i'm gonna be up front this is what has
to happen the dogs are not leaving the dogs are not going anywhere and that's so oh joe i don't
get upset if a female civil shannon these are my non-negotiables i got no problem with that i have to seriously
ask myself okay shannon you're saying you can do it i know you can do it for a week but can you do
it for a month can you do it for six months can you do it for a year can you do it forever those
are questions that you have to ask yourself and i know in in the beginning, a lot of times, like I said,
when females would tell me when I was dating, I said, look,
football is the most important thing.
Or I can be number two.
Until they found out, man, this motherfucker, he too serious, man.
All he want to eat is chicken breast and brown rice.
We don't go out to eat no time.
We don't do anything because all he does shannon you just left work you just watch
film you tell me you watch film for two and a half hours why you got to watch film another two hours
when you get home because that's how you become great this is how you make sure mary porter
never has to eat what she ate the house doesn't leak anymore that my family never have to go back to that this is how
and so that's how i am and so i just tell them up front hey the dog these are these are some
of the things i have i'll do whatever i can for you as far as monetary i'll i can only love you
and that's the thing that's the hardest thingcho, is trying to communicate in someone's love language. Because as my therapist told me, she said, Shannon,
she's speaking Spanish and you're loving her in Mandarin Chinese. She doesn't know what you're
doing and you don't know what she's doing. So unless you learn her language or she learns
your language, there is no communication and it's never going to work. Do you think, do you think
at times we as men can get lost? We can lose a sense of ourself trying to please a woman too much
because everything is predicated towards making her happy. Most of the time it's never really
ever, ever about us. Cause if you ask her what makes her happy and you just say, you just say,
you ask her to name five things that make her happy and those five things she names will always be predicated to her and have nothing to do with you
yes she want the bag i want he want the bag i want a man to take me here and i want him to do that i
want him yeah yeah well they got you got to be the provider so so that the the old in question still
remains unanswered to today.
Was that is it possible? Is it possible to keep a woman happy long term?
Whether it's a relationship, whether it's even a friendship, well, it's marriage.
Is it possible, especially in today's climate and era that we're in where women like, wait, no, you know what?
He got one time. It doesn't come from any external thing.
Go, Joe. Happiness comes from self.
Happiness is not something you find it's something you create you you notice i said happiness is something you create it's not something you find self is not something that
you found i hate when people say i found myself no you created self so me give i can give you
whatever but at the end of the day you've got to be happy with you.
You have to be happy with the person that you are.
And I can I can be an accessory to your happiness.
Right.
But I can never make you totally happy if you're unhappy with yourself.
And that's what I've had to learn because I was looking for people to make me happy.
But I wasn't happy with myself
there were some things that I needed to figure out and then once I figured out that I said okay
and I know and I look oh chill I'll be the first to admit I'm not an easy person to get along with
because no because the thing is I had one of my exes told because
all her friends like he must be so great to hang around he's so funny he's she said the person that
you see on television he's nothing like that at home that him yeah and i'm not i'm very very quiet
at home i don't watch a whole lot of TV. Most of the things that I watch
is on mute.
And if it's not making me money,
I don't really watch it anymore.
I mean, I'll go home.
I'll go home.
And when I'm home
and I wouldn't do anything,
when I was going on vacation,
I was on another computer.
I wouldn't cut the TV on.
Well, when you cut the TV on. Real? Wouldn't even cut the TV on.
I'd go get a massage,
come home, stay in my room.
I'd go get my nails done,
come home, stay in my room. I'd go get
my hair cut, go home, stay in my room.
My homeboy was telling you, Bucket,
he's like, when I was playing Ocho,
my homeboy would come up.
He would say,
Hey man,
I'm gonna come on up.
Cause I know you about to get training.
When I got into that mode,
nobody came up.
Nobody came to visit.
That's how I am.
And so I'm not an easy person to get along with.
And I think the thing is that's probably the most reason.
And people say,
I got to,
I don't,
I don't ask a whole lot.
I mean,
I think when people like, well, Shannon, you got too many rules well right if i'm i was gonna say i was gonna say that
if all i ask is that you not pass gas in front of me or burp in front of me if that's too much okay
or use the bathroom with a double thing no that's not that i i okay okay that that's a that's a
non-negotiable for you maybe we're not for each other that's okay right i i okay okay that that is that's a if that's a non-negotiable for you
maybe we not for each other that's okay right maybe i have some maybe i have some some quirks
um you know i had to you know get out of the habit of you know mama want to do a little something in
the morning i had to get him brush my teeth right i can't we can't be doing that i can't be kissing
you mouth smelling like get back oh no whoa whoa. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Wait a minute.
Wait a minute, Nat.
Wait a minute.
Like, when it's time to get to the nitty gritty in the morning,
you ain't got time.
You don't have to.
You don't got time to be brushing your teeth.
By that time, the mood is already gone.
Ocho, man, I can't be in there kissing nobody
breath smelling like Get Back.
Hey, man, in the morning, ain't nothing about no kissing.
Ocho, you out here like this here.
Now, we going to work with you we gonna
you know a lot of times i just you know i had to get out of that habit of thinking i'm like
everything had to be perfect yeah and and i think everybody's striving for that though
but i just like okay this i mean
you come i mean you look at you you go to my refrigerator all the labels are facing forward
you go in my cupboards everything is facing a certain way you go everything is color coordinated
hung up in my closets everything is everything is like like gotaca everything is so boom boom boom boom boom and then when it gets out
of that okay what's the problem why is it like this and so that was the hardest thing but to
get back on Tiana Taylor Ocho I hope I mean I don't know Iman I don't even I like damn sure
don't know Tiana I mean I know who she is I know who he is I just
I just I just hope that wasn't the case that because I ain't trying to deal nobody like I
want you to be your best I want you to be you and if I could accentuate that right I got I'll help
what what you need yeah what you need hey chick say hey Shannon I want to go to I want to go to
um you know what I want to go to real estate school.
You know what I did, Ocho?
I said, here, tell your mama to go too.
Here's enough for both of y'all.
That's how I am.
That's how I am.
I don't expect nothing back.
I don't do anything and expect it back.
I've given my homeboys money.
Hey, bro, when I give you money,
man, Sean, come on, man.
I don't want you, bro.
You good.
You good.
Right.
That's just that's how I am, especially with.
Yeah.
I've broken up.
I've broken up with females, Ocho.
And it's like I see him like I said, well, you know, blah, blah, blah.
I've been very fortunate, Ocho, to not after breaking up with somebody, not seeing them out with someone else.
Because we live totally different lives.
I'm on one side of town.
They're on the other side of town.
I live in one state.
They live in another state.
So I don't really.
Right.
But if they ever need me.
Mm-hmm.
I had this one.
It ain't nothing.
No.
One chick, she called me.
We were cool.
Right.
She's like, Shannon, I reallyannon i really need that's what you need
down payment on the house okay you good whoa whoa whoa whoa down payment down payment what
you're 25 2500 oh sure let me tell you what i do because i like that i like that if you oh show
if you cool with me you ain't got nothing to worry about let me tell you what i do because i like that i like that if you ocho if you cool with me you ain't got
nothing to worry about let me tell you what i did when i was young i'm glad we friends then ocho
when we were young when i was young i would test women because i wanted to see if you really like
me and what you so i went to see this lady i ain't gonna tell you where i went to see that but i stay
in the hotel and the last day he was coming back before i was getting ready to leave so i gave
a five thousand and forty dollars and i know people at home say why you give a five thousand
and forty valet was twenty seven dollars and i wanted to see if she was going to take the
forty dollars give the valet and let them keep them and keep the change what you think she did
i know she hit
you ass for the money for valet don't don't do that she charged it to the room
so I'm out what were you lying I'm out I'm doing take it you you purposely gave her $40 that would
have took care of valet she could have pocketed love five and she kept that her $40 that would have took care of the valet. She could have pocketed a little five
and she kept that little $40.
Yep.
That's a good test, Unc.
That's a good one right there, bro.
Let me tell you what I did.
I did what I did one time.
Once I told the chick,
I said, I'm going to give you X amount of dollars.
I gave her
I gave her less than that
now I promise I'm gonna tell you what I told
I said I'm gonna give you 10 bands
for a birthday I gave her 10 bands
for a birthday I said I'm gonna give you 10 bands for your birthday
yes sir
I gave her 8
but she didn't want it
because I promised her 10.
Wait, what?
She turned down 8,000
because you didn't give her 10
just because you said?
She said I lied to her.
You know, women,
women big on principle now.
You know how that is.
Women big on that.
Listen, if you say
you're going to do something,
they big on that. I didn't see women. Women say, Listen, if you say you're going to do something, they big on that.
I done seen women say, listen, if you say you're going to do something, do it.
If you ain't going to stand on what you said you were going to do, why you even off in the first place?
But I like, see, here's the thing.
And this is how I am, Ocho.
The way my grandmother raised me is that be appreciative.
Even if you don't get what you thought.
And that's what, you know, look, and I think that that came from growing up how i grew up i know i was gonna ever get what i
really asked for because we couldn't get it my mama got what she could i mean i was the first
one of the first in glenville to have air jordans i was the first to have a walkman i mean we had a
lot of stuff whatever my mama could get, we got it.
Yeah.
And so get it all right.
And my grandmother, whatever she could get, we got it.
And so it taught me to be appreciative of whatever she gave me.
And it rubs me to the one thing I hate.
Any woman that's ever dealt with me if you ask them hopefully
don't tell you but i hate ungratefulness i hate ungratefulness yeah appreciate what i give you
and i'll give you more and most of the time you don't have to ask me ocho i'll just give it to
you i'll just go give it to you yeah yeah yeah that's how i am you know that that's very hard
in today in today's in today's era in in today's climate, because you got you got fellas now that obviously that lead with money and do so much right off the bat.
So when you when you reach somebody like you, someone like you who is a little bit more conscious of the way they give, then it's a little different because they expect it to be a certain way based on the individuals they dealt with before you came along.
It's a little different. Yeah. You got you got you got fellas that's throwing that money because they got that fast money coming in and they move in different.
So they can spend like that. So those that have to work hard for their money, they don't really appreciate you like that now.
Yeah. So it's different types. It's different types.
But I just hopefully, you know, I got daughters that are that are grown and and of dating age and i just like look and i just try to i just try to
explain to them look they've been around they've been around me their whole life and they've grown
accustomed to a certain thing a certain type of a lifestyle i said babe but what happens if you
don't meet somebody the equivalent of your dad you You got to be OK with that. You got to be somebody that's going to love you, even if they can't provide what I what I provided you growing up.
You got to be OK with that. Right. You got to be OK with that.
But yeah. And you got to be supportive of your husband and hopefully he's supportive of you.
Yeah, that's that. That's that's that's the thing like i said ocho for the most part
i like i said i haven't met anybody equivalent of me or you work look if i'm in a relationship
ocho if you if you working you want to continue to work work baby right but you don't put anything
towards the house save your money save yours the only thing you gotta pay the only thing you'll
ever have to pay for is your own phone bill your phone bill that's it i got the car i got the
insurance i got everything well that's that's why i see why you're so picky now because whoever you
pick ladies i know you're listening now oh doctor doctor oh alex trinidad alex trinidad donated a

I ain't going to strike out.
I ain't playing baseball.
I ain't playing baseball, but I used to be good a softball player.
Listen.
I ain't never struck out, Ocho.
My grandma said three times is the charm.
Now, you keep on playing around, you're going to end up on a farm.
Ocho.
Don't play no
games now. Don't miss your blessing.
You know what? Opportunity knocks or Grumbler complains
about the noise.
I ain't one to complain, Ocho.
All right, now.
Let me ask you a question.
Stay with me now. Stay with me.
Knock, knock.
Who there?
Knock, knock.
Who there, Ocho?
The doctor.
She there? She, knock. Who there, Ocho? The doctor. She there?
She there.
She got a bag.
She got a stethoscope.
I ain't been breathing good lately.
You might need to open up my airway, doc.
Man, stop playing. Hey, listen.
The man upstairs ain't going to give you too many more
signs, man.
He ain't going to give you too many more.
But back on that topic, man, with Tiana
and Iman, man, it's unfortunate.
I mean, many of our, what I consider
and I call celebs, you know,
I know both of them.
It's very unfortunate. So many of them continue to break up. know both of them. It's very unfortunate.
So many of them continue to break up.
So many of them.
It's easy, Ocho.
People don't want to fight no more.
Ocho, you know how it is.
I mean, back in the day.
You fight for something?
Yeah.
Look, it's not like my grandmother and grandfather didn't argue a lot in front of us,
but they would work it out.
People don't want to work it out now.
The easy thing is to just believe.
It's too many options
social media has made
us think there's so many options
oh no it ain't nothing
out there
let me bring that back to you real quick
ain't nothing out there
ain't nothing out there
nah not like that
cause if it was that good it'd be taken
if it's what you thought it was if you what you thought it was
you know you you'd it'd be it'd be taken and it'd be even if they're not taking with all with
with all due respect to what's out there you know some people are still looking for their person and
whatever that person may be whatever you envision your happiness to be it's out there and you're
going to continue looking for because
you're looking for perfection you're looking for perfection you're looking for you know you want
the best of the best and that's just not the way it works because that might not be in your cards
i'm not sure what deck you playing with or you might want to shuffle but well you know what
your man you know you say sometimes you got to deal the card you know you got to play the hand
that you dealt but i ain't got no. I ain't got no face cards.
I'm going to throw my hand in.
You might as well throw it in.
But the way she blessing is Paige.
You might as well throw it in.
Yeah.
Fold them.
You know what, Ocho?
You got to know when to fold them.
That social media has been a blessing and a curse because it's allowed us to have our own platform like a nightcap, like a club.
And it's allowed me opportunity to to to become
more recognizable whatever you want yeah whatever you want to envision yourself as being
you can portray it on there until somebody see you in person yeah yeah but until somebody see
you in person but i think the thing is is that when i was playing when i first got into the league to meet somebody from miami you
damn they had you had to be in miami yeah if i wanted to meet somebody from cali or dallas or
houston or wherever new york i had to be in those places now i just open up and i could just like
damn oh yeah yeah social media has made the world very very very accessible has made everybody accessible
has made everybody accessible it has you know and and the thing is like look everybody has somebody
my grandmother always say boy everybody got somebody it's just to what extent
married fiance significant other boyfriend girlfriend ain't nobody just like that i ain't
got nobody no Nah. Nah.
So it's always something.
There's always some type of title.
There's always some type of something. And one of the scariest things that you can deal with is when you find somebody new and you're having to compete against their past.
Because I remember my grandma always told me, boy, you're going to meet women
and women are going to come into your life
and they're going to always have somebody from their past
that will always have access to them.
One person.
Just one.
You're right.
Not a whole bunch of dudes.
Not a whole bunch.
No, I'm talking about.
There's that one special person.
I don't care.
I don't care what you,
I don't care what she tell you.
There will always be one person
that will always have access to her,
no matter what she says to you.
Damn.
And another thing she said was every time you date somebody,
you always have to remember you are really not the one she want to be with.
The one she really want probably just wouldn't get his act together.
Damn.
And I'm saying them two things.
It's stuck with me forever and ever and ever.
And I,
it's just always been in the back of
my mind matter of fact real i know you're watching real i better be the one you wanted to because i
know you can see this but yeah man it's just just small things like that man if i don't let it
bother me it doesn't deter anything i have going on right now but again keeping a woman happy iman
and goddamn tiana it is unfortunate what they had
what they had I wish them both the best of luck but for me like I told you and those that are
watching I kind of hang around people that are in the same situation as I am to make sure I stay
on point and um again if y'all don't know Duke you can follow Duke on Instagram that's that's
somebody I look up to and want to be like and I'm waiting on you that's why i'm trying to get you a plus one because we i because we are
together so much i need you in that same lane i'm in so i can steal from you and move accordingly
the way you do but i don't hang around nobody i don't hang around nobody but you you gotta you gotta start hanging around me
because i'm i'm walking down the right path and i need you to walk i need i need i need
a bad influence no i ain't unless unless you talk about eating that's about it
laron lewis donated 20 10 dollars and said oh at this point give me your insta
your insta i'll message real friend. Nah. Hell nah.
James Coleman donated
$5. Hey guys, what's your
top three 80s action movies?
Top three 80s
80s action movies. Oh, that's
a good one. Wait, let me think.
Mad Max.
What you know about
Mad Max?
Hey, what about Golden Child
Golden Child ain't the 80s
that ain't no action movie
man Golden Child was action
what you talking about man
yes with the little boy it was action
oh lord have mercy
action you think about
what you want me to say Rambo
yeah Rambo
Predator Predator ain't the 80. Yeah. Predator. Predator
ain't the 80s though. Yeah, Predator.
The first one. Okay, okay.
Yeah, that's a good question.
Okay.
That's a good one. That's a good
one. Rambo. What about, oh, I
got one for you. What about Die Hard? I'm going to take you back.
Is Die Hard an action movie or is it a Christmas movie?
That's a good
question. It's an action movie. Yeah. It Christmas movie? That's a good question.
It's an action movie. It just happened to be
filmed around Christmas time.
The setting was during
Christmas time. What about
why is it
slipping my mind? The movie with Arnold Schwarzenegger.
Which one? Oh, Terminator?
No, not even
Terminator. He was
Conan.
God, Conan the Barbarian. no not it's not even not even terminator he was um conan god conan the barbarian god you took it right you took it right out my goddamn mouth conan the barbarian you remember
that yes i do yes that was classic that was that was a good good action movie
turnip king 31 donated 20 dollars uncle nocho what would you y'all prefer a dodge challenger i mean a dodge challenger hellcat or a track hawk and why i'm partial because when they reintroduced the uh hellcat in 2008
i got it they were numbered then they only came out with 6400 i had number 40 and when they came
out with the hellcat um i think it was 2014 i got that one and so the last edition of the model
they came out with they came out with a model called the black ghost they came out with a demon
also and so uh i got that one so for me i'm kind of biased towards the challenger hellcat
because i think it of the all the remakes it looks the most like the original challenger right all right for me uh if if you
know me you know i drive a smart car i'm really not into speed i'm not going fast um if i had to
take a choice um good friend of mine chief keith has a track hawk so i'd probably go with the track
hawk because it looks cool um i i don't really drive fast i'm not into hell cats and
and dog cats and and what was what's the other one called a demon demon time demon time yeah i'm
gonna get old school i'm gonna get old school if you're gonna get a chevy get a don't no i'm
thinking about i'm thinking about like a 70 chevelle i'm gonna get a chevelle i like chevelle
i like kudos get you get you a don't man man. I like the Ram Air, a GTO.
I'm going to probably get something like that.
Nah, you got to get you a don't, man.
I don't want no don't, dude.
I ain't from Florida.
It don't matter.
Get you a 73, man.
Convertible, man.
Peanut butter guts, man.

Ex-Emerald donated $10
and asked, what was the best
athlete you guys went against?
Greetings from Puerto Rico.
Best athlete. Love the show, Uncle
Nocho. Puerto Rico got some things
over there too, don't it? Who got the best
one, Puerto Rico or Dominican?
Best what? Food? Women.
Oh, I don't know.
I don't know, bro.
Okay.
Damn.
Hey, y'all jump in the chat.
Who the best?
Puerto Rico or Dominican?
It closed, though.
Yeah, I don't know.
I ain't never been to Puerto Rico or Dominican.
But I heard I ain't never been either, Ocho.
But everybody talking about, hey, hey, hey, Sharp, man.
Hey, you need to get on.
Bro, I'm telling you, bro.
Yeah, I ain't never been over there, bro.
They be feisty.
All of them.
Both of them feisty.
I mean, they be talking.
Real?
Yeah, they feisty.
They might be a little bit too feisty for me.
I'm a slow boogie.
I'm slow motion over here.
Yeah, I don't know nothing about that, bro.
You on your own there, bro.
I'm on my own?
Oh, what rail?
What rail is it?
Rail Puerto Rico. Oh, yeah, yeah, thank you? What rail is? Rail, Puerto Rico.
Oh, thank you. Don't play with me, Ocho.
I'm too big of a cat to be played with like a kitten.
You know that. I know,
but that's one topic
I don't want no part of. Okay, okay. I appreciate it.
I know she watching.
Baby, you watching?
She watching. Matter of fact, the funny thing about it
is she downstairs, right?
She downstairs? No, I'm not
kidding you. No, she's downstairs.
But I got the key. I got both
sets of keys so she can't get up. So she's watching
from the car.
Yeah, so I ain't in for the play because I got
to deal with that when she's walking the door.
I know. You know what? I appreciate that.
No problem. But I tell you what.
Hey, guys that's watching.
Dominican, Puerto Rico.
Yeah, but I.
Yeah, you can have that.
Emer wants to know who's the best athlete.
I would probably say, obviously, time.
But you know what, Ocho?
I was in the league when Bo Jackson was in the league.
Actually, he was on the Raiders when I was at the Broncos.
And if you look at one of the plays,
one of his long runs were against the Broncos.
And it might have been like a week or two weeks
before he fractured his hip against the Bengals.
So, man.
Man.
Bo, a time.
The best athlete?
It's got to be Bo a time. Yeah, for me athlete. It's gotta be Bo time.
Yeah.
For me,
it would have to,
you have to be maybe prime time with champ Bailey.
What's about pure athlete.
Yeah.
Crime or champ Bailey.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Two percent.
Both,
two,
both of them play two,
two position players.
I mean,
yeah,
we haven't seen anything like that to this today.
For me, unless you played against time
or you actually was on the sidelines when he played,
you don't get an appreciation of it.
You really don't.
To see how he moved and how effortlessly he glided,
it's kind of like I want to talk about this earlier,
but I played on Thanksgiving, my rookie year.
And guess who we played?
The Lions.
Guess who the Lions had?
Barry.
Barry Sanders, yeah.
So what do you think he did?
Put on a show?
Went crazy work.
People say, oh, that was, no, no, no, no, no.
There'll never, ever be another Barryry you're never gonna see a guy
start with two feet and take off and do what it's unbelievable to see it in person yeah i'm like it
almost didn't it almost defies it devised defies gravity it defies logic it defies physics that
his joints god only made one person that joints were like ball bearings
and that he could the way he could bend and hug and maneuver it's almost like you see cats like
when when the animal turns and he turned around like a cheetah and he's turning right there with
him that's how barry ankle bone and his knees and his hips that's how they maneuvered like man if i stopped like hey
if i was trying to start with both feet knee going there patella going over here hips going to it
right hey i'm gonna shatter something like ice hitting the floor it's really that simple joe
yeah that's a good that's a good one that's a good one. That's a good one. Barry, he was special.
Oh man,
he,
he was really bad.
I'm fortunate.
Like I got an opportunity to play,
you know, like the old guard,
you know,
Montana and Marino and Elway and Barry and Emmett and Jerry,
some of the great defenders,
DT,
LT,
uh,
Bruce Reggie,
uh,
uh,
uh,
time,
you know,
Ray in the modern year, Ray had Ray and Erlacher. And then Time you know Ray in the modern year had Ray and Erlacher
and then you know I played Manning
and Brady like whoa
I kind of got it
pretty good over here
my brother you know
and then now you see these guys
coming like okay but
I think the era from
when I played you look at the quarterbacks
i mean montana was all on the old you know century team and manning and and marino and elway and
brady so i got five with a t in i played in the era reggie bruce ray uh jerry rice i think randy Ray Jerry Rice I think Randy Moss was on that team
I played against
played against Tony
a lot of the offensive linemen
I like
I mean you know
I think well you got Brady
and Manning within that era
you played against Ray
I'm trying to think
Ed Reed I got played against Ed.
Paulo Malo.
Who else?
Rod Wilson.
I played against him.
He's a teammate of mine.
Who else?
Shoot.
Damn, T.O.
Trying to think who else. I'm talking about these are
the elite of the elite

No, I flunked out because I left.
I left and went and found another job.
No, no, no, no.
When you flunk out, that don't mean you left.
All right.
I didn't mean to use the word flunk.
