I don't know if you know, but I adopted Chris Henry kids, too.
So they up here with me.
Bubba and Man-Man, they are freaks of nature when it comes to sports and everything.
But it's a love thing over here in our household.
No, I did not know that.
We love each other hard.
We cry together.
We pray together.
You know what I mean?
We do everything together over here.
What led you to do that, Pat?
Everybody know me and Chris was best friends in college.
I'm still close with this whole entire family.
I'm still close with Laney, which is the boys' mom.
We're inseparable.
And we was just talking, I was like,
Laney, I to get the boys so I can take what we've done so far
and, like, maximize it.
You know what I mean?
So we sat down.
We've been working on this for three, four years.
Right.
And we finally got it done a couple, like six, seven months ago.
And it's just, for me, it's heartwarming because I know my man up there just sitting up there smiling like, man, I really appreciate you.
For the people that don't know, you're talking about your father?
I don't get too teared up about certain stuff, but I don't know.
That was my man.
You get what I'm saying like me and Slim
was like like this. We was
the real poster boys when they first started
talking about poster boys.
So talking about not only was he a teammate
of yours in Cincinnati. He was
a teammate of yours. Chris Henry, the wide
receiver, a teammate of yours at West
Virginia. That's where you first met.
Yeah, you guys were so
close. You adopted. I think he has two boys, right? Yeah. Yeah. where you first met. Yeah. You guys were so close. You adopted, I think
he has two boys, right?
Yeah, yeah. And you adopted them
recently. Man, that's
big, Pac. That's huge.
Yeah.
Yeah, so that's what
we're doing, man. They're unbelievable

So what happened in Dallas?
Because it seemed like it was going well, then all of a sudden you got released.
It was going great.
And I went out one night,
and Jerry had me on these security guards with me.
And you know how we play in the locker room.
Yeah.
So I go to the bathroom.
This is honest to God, true story.
I go to the bathroom.
My security guard, he was peeing.
So I pushed him, like, on his butt, like a little lap type.
Right.
A little lap.
He pissed all over himself.
He get, like, so mad.
Had the nerve to swing on me.
Come on.
My security.
So that was a whole other situation.
And I whooped his ass.
Jerry was like, goddamn, how you going to beat up the security that I got you?
I'm like, bro, I was just playing with him.
He got mad because I pushed him and he pissed on himself.
And I wasn't really trying to do.
And he just swung.
So hold on.
So now see, that was not the story.
No, yeah.
Yeah, for real.
This is for real. And you getting the rock., see, that was not the story. No, yeah, for real. This is for real now, Shaq.
You getting the raw.
I know you're telling me the truth,
but you know the story that they had out
is that the security guard tried to wake you up
from a hangover.
And y'all fought.
Hell no.
So, the real...
Man, that man ain't trying to wake me up
from no hangover.
So, the real is, you were joking around.
I promise to God.
He peed on his hand and got upset at you,
and you beat up the security guard.
Yeah.
Well, you need a new security guard anyway.
I swear to God, that's exact.
Call Dion.
Dion will tell you.
Dion knows the truth.

In 2007, you were suspended for the entire season.
They took all your money.
You don't get no money.
When you get suspended, you don't get no money.
Do you believe, did the commissioner Goodell,
did he handle that properly?
Is there something that you knew that they didn't know
that could have maybe stemmed some,
maybe not get an entire year, maybe get six games?
What transpired?
I got the entire year just
because of who i was and the night before i went and met him he had somebody following me and i
went to the strip club in new york and pat come on pat you know that i'm being honest i'm being
honest that's why i got suspended they ain't telling the people that people don't know that i don't really think that it was about what had happened the point was i think he was like damn
you ain't learning what the matter is at hand right here right now going i'm you coming to
commissioner and you take over here talking about you're going to eat some wings at the script club
you know at at 20 years old 21 i wouldn't have never thought that was a problem.
I'm from Atlanta.
Go to the strip club to eat wings.
People don't believe that.
Yes.
Magic City got them wings.
They fire.
They fire for real, though.
Man, Cheetah got a steak that's better than any steakhouse I've ever been to.
What?
Cheetah put it down like that? What? Man, Cheetah, oh steak that's better than any steakhouse I ever been to. What? Cheetah put it down like that?
What?
Man, Cheetah, oh, my God.
So, but at the time, you know what I mean,
I ain't going to say I was being rebellion because I wasn't being rebellion.
It was more of young and dumb being a product of the environment.
You know what I mean? I didn't have nobody
that'd be like, hey, Pac, don't do that shit.
You're going to meet the commissioner. You know what I mean?
And at that time, I probably
wouldn't want to listen to nobody because I wanted nobody to help me out
before that. That was my whole point.
Like, what the f*** was that when I was
broke? The time I got all this money
is, hey, boy, you're not supposed
to do this. Hey, boy, you're not supposed to do that.
Man, I've been suffering 21 years.
Right.
I ain't got a pair of
shoes to go to school,
a car to say good luck.
Came all the way home from
college when my grandma passed away. Didn't even
want to go back to school. If it weren't for Coach coming
to get me, I'd probably still be in Atlanta right now.
I ain't even have a family member, a friend or nothing. friend or hey man get your ass up man you're way too you
way too good to be trying to sit here at home right so it was it was a more of a learning
point for me shay and i really think god do things for a reason and that was that that was my story
