Oh, hell, go get a bottle for both of you guys.
I really, really appreciate that.
So let's jump right into it, Ocho.
The Falcons are hiring Raheem Morris as their next head coach.
Morris spent his last three years ago in Atlanta,
and he was the interim coach after Dan Quinn was fired after 0-5 season.
He went 4-7 as the interim, and Atlanta hired Arthur Smith to replace him.
the interim and he was Atlanta hired Arthur Smith
to replace him. Falcons
fired Arthur Smith after
three, seven, and ten
seasons. Do you like the move?
Because everybody thought that
Coach Belichick was the frontrunner
after he had interviewed twice
with Falcons owner
Arthur Blank. Raheem Morris
is going to be the next head coach
of the Atlanta Alcons.
Right.
I like the move. I like the move.
What you want to do is when it comes to hiring
head coaches,
you want to hire coaches that
resonate with their players. I think Bill
Belichick, obviously his resume,
it extends far beyond anything
I can explain that we've all seen.
We know what he does. We know what he's brought to the table, obviously, during his tenure, his dynasty tenure with the New England Patriots.
We've somewhat seen how that ended.
Obviously, not having an adequate or competent quarterback to compete week in and week out.
We've seen how that is going.
The hire of Raheem Morris.
This is why it's a good thing.
I never played for him.
But the players that have played that are still active in the NFL today, when they saw this hiring, you could notice all their tweets.
Notice all the things that they've said.
Jalen Ramsey being one of them.
Arguably one of the greatest cornerbacks to ever play.
Giving the high five and the signal that that defense jesse bates
and those boys are getting a good one that lets you know whether the hire was good or not not how
the people on the outside think not how the coaches uh around the nfl think but the players
that have to deal with the coaches on a day-to-day basis on the inside of that building,
how do they feel about them?
I think about it, this hire, almost equivalent to that of Antonio Pierce
with Oakland and understanding how important he is in being able to not just
be a leader of men, but a coach that the players respect and will run through
a fucking wall for.
And I think that's what Raheem Morris is for Atlanta Falcons.
So I like the hire.
I like the hire also.
You're talking about somebody that's very familiar with the NFC South.
He coached in Tampa.
Remember, he had a tenure in Tampa for a period of time,
even though that was a while ago as the DC for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
And I think he was the interim head coach when John Gruden got let go.
If I'm not mistaken, I don't, but I know he spent some time in Tampa.
I know him a little bit, spoke to him a couple of times.
I really like him.
I think he's paid his dues.
I think he's put the requisite amount of time in and given an opportunity to be a head coach again in this league.
I think the other times were interim.
So I really like Raheem. Wasn't he in Tampa? Didn't he take over for John Gruden and have a couple of again in this league. I think the other times will enter him. So I really like Raheem.
Wasn't he in Tampa?
Didn't he take over for John Gruden and have a couple years in Tampa?
If I'm not mistaken, I think that's the case.
But he's definitely put the time in, won the Super Bowl as the D.C.
at the Rams, coached Aaron Donald, coached Jalen Ramsey, coached B. Wags.
Yeah.
Yeah, he was the head coach in Tampa from 09 to 11.
Very familiar with this division.
Like I said, coached in Tampa.
Now he was a D.C.
He was an interim coach.
And when Dan Quinn got fired.
So I like this move from Arthur Blank.
I like this guy.
I like Raheem getting another opportunity to be a head coach, like I said.
And plus, ATL, y'all know how they get down, you know?
They talk about D.C.
They came back with ATL because we black everything.
Black mayor.
You know what I'm saying?
That's how we put it down.
You 80.
Go ahead.
But I think we have one issue
that needs to be resolved and
you know this is a quarterback league
in order to compete even at
NFC South you're going to need a quarterback
to compete with the likes
of Drew Brees
not Drew Brees. Drew Brees not there. Derek Carr
I'm talking about
Drew Brees. Derek Carr. Well it didn't take much
to beat him. Baker Mayfield just had a really good year
Derek Carr
Derek Carr, Baker Mayfield
Brother Bryce
Brother Bryce
You got to get your quarterback situation situated
I think that should be the first order of business
For Mr. Morris
To find out what you're going to do in that area
If I'm not mistaken I'm thinking
If me I'm not saying I'm Cleo, but what makes
the most sense to me is going to get brother Justin Fields, knowing that the bears are
probably going to pick Caleb Williams.
I'm just saying you're not, you're not going to pass on something like that.
You're not going to pass on something like that.
So Justin Field is a great quarterback, and you get Justin Fields,
and you add him with B. John Robinson, Kyle Pitts, Drake London,
and the rest of those fellas you got to work with.
I think they got something special to deal with,
and Jesse Bates and those boys on defense are going to be all right.
Yeah, I like that.
I really like Raheem.
Like I said, I think he's great.
I think he'll resonate.
Like you said, I think he'll resonate like you said
i think he'll resonate with today's player uh but when you look at coach belichick you look at his
resume and what he's done um yeah am i a little surprised yes yes yes for the simple fact i mean
he does have six superbowls he did have have a winning record from 2001 all the way
to 2019.
Was it 2019?
2020? I think even after the last
year Tom left, well, no.
2019. I think
Tom last year was 2019.
Basically, from 2001
until 2019, they had a
winning record.
He did a decent job. Now, the last couple of years, it had a winning record. And he did a decent job.
Now, the last couple of years, it wasn't his finest.
I don't think it was his finest team-building job.
I think that's...
Defensively, they were good.
I'm talking about drafting players and putting them in position.
I don't think that his finest.
But we saw that people automatically assume
what Tom Brady's in the free agent
and everybody's going to get off their quarterback
to get Tom Brady.
And we saw that didn't happen.
Only a few teams really wanted Tom Brady.
What we're finding out though,
his greatest coach Belichick resume is
maybe some of the teams are thinking
you're not bringing Tom with you.
And we see a lot of your
success was tied to him now I'm not saying that's for me out of the outside Ocho looking in but it
seems to me because nobody else has been able to lead uh New England and have success no matter
what it went it didn't matter where you went to the cleveland you went to the raiders you went to denver you went to wherever now bill o'brien did have some success in houston but not
the level of but he and he is the only one because charlie weiss went to notre dame and didn't have
success i think he also went to kansas and he didn't have success so with the exception of
bill o'brien none of the other assistants were able to have the level of success that,
but we saw a lot of guys.
Ray Lewis got a lot of defensive coaches,
jobs,
Brett Favre got a lot of offensive coordinators,
jobs.
And,
and,
and Andy was one of those guys.
Uh,
John Gruden was one of those guys.
Dick Duran was one of those,
one of those guys.
There were a lot of guys that got,
uh,
uh,
uh,
mooch.ve mariucci
was there yeah yeah hey that's amazing when you think about it when you think about it depending
on what coaching tree you're from and depending on what defense you might have been a part of
that the players are so good that you may have coached, you know, the skill and the talent is already
there once you get to the NFL level. The good thing for the coaches is the fact that you're
actually coaching players that are already well-developed. So what you're getting is the
finished product. You're getting the finished product of players and just being associated
with them or being associated with, well, you being their coach at that specific position,
with them or being associated with well, you being their coach at that specific
position, you automatically get
jobs down
the line as if you're responsible for
the talent you're actually coaching.
When it's really just a finished product,
all they're doing is executing the X's and O's. That's all.
It's funny.
It's funny how that works. Ray,
look at the guys that Ray, the guy
in Cincinnati with your coach,
Marvin. Marvin Lewis. You got Rex Ryan. You got at the guys that Ray, the guy in Cincinnati with your coach, Marvin,
Marvin Lewis, you got Rex
Ryan, you got
Jack Del Rio,
you got Mike Nolan, you got
Mike Singletary, you got Mike
Smith.
That's six guys that
coached with the D coordinator or
the linebacker's coach when
Ray Lewis was in Baltimore that got jobs.
You was there that 2000 season, wasn't you?
The staff was Marvin Lewis was the D season.
Jack Del Rio was the linebacker's coach.
Rex Ryan was the D line coach.
Mike Smith was there.
Mike Nolan came.
Yes, all those guys was there on one
style.
That's crazy.
I think and
I don't want to get off topic right
topic right here. Yeah, I'm going to 85
right.
What do you do that?
With the Bears in 85, who do you think was better?
That 2000 that 2000
Ravens defense or Buddy Ryan in back there?
Man, it was different.
I mean, I'm biased
because I was on that.
I think that's the greatest defense
when you look at it.
Now, the difference is
the Ravens gave up
the fewest amount of points.
Tennessee, statistically,
had the better overall defense
because they gave up fewer yards.
So what's important?
Yards.
I don't know if anybody's ever going to give up 165 or fewer points in an NFL season, especially with the additional game.
You have to understand what the Ravens did.
The Bears had the record at like 180. The Ravens gave up 188 points
in 20 games
when you include the playoffs.
So in 20 games,
they gave up 188 points.
So what's the likelihood
of somebody giving up
nine points a game
in a season?
I don't think people, I don't even think people understand the difficulty. I don't think people understand
the difficulty. I don't think people
understand the difficulty in
how hard that is to achieve
for defense.
That's difficult. We talk about the NFL,
this is the best of the best. These are the
1% of the world
and you're not allowing grown men
to get more than 9 points
week in and week out.
No matter who you're playing.
About 10.1, 10.2 points a game over the regular season.
And you know you got the Steel Curtain.
You got the Doomsday defense in Dallas.
You got the Purple People Eater.
You got the Fearsome Foursome.
You got the O2 Bucks.
The 13 Seahawks.
The Legion of Boom.
Say we want some of this but when you look at
look at i want people a chat if you get a chance go back and look at the stats from the super bowl
and see what they gave up to the giants and see how many punts and see how many turnovers how
many takeaways they had in that game now Now, that defense didn't give up points
in the Super Bowl. That
was a kick return. They gave
up three points to the
Raiders. They gave
up three points to the Broncos.
They gave up 10 points
to the Tennessee Titans.
So, they gave up, in
four playoff games, the defense actually
gave up 16 points.
So their average giving up four points a game in the playoffs.
No, that's that's crazy.
When you when you think about it, it's almost like playing a video game.
Matter of fact, if you try if you play six, six, you play 16 games, let's say just deep
and just for the for the sake of you playing You're playing somebody 16 times, 16 different opponents.
There's no way you can keep somebody scoring from scoring like that.
It's impossible.
Okay, I'm going to play somebody.
I'm only going to allow them 10 points a game.
You can't do it in a video game, let alone that a team was able to do it in real life consistently week in and week out.
And they gave up less than 1, thousand total rush yards in 16 games.
So go look at.
So in 16 games, all 16 teams that they played combined, if you combine their rush yards, it wasn't a thousand.
That's crazy.
And I had to deal with that starting in 2001 from that point on that like i
said look i understand with the 85 bears because you look at them they had like oh my god the sacks
that they had they had like 31 pigs they were just they were just relentless and the defense
people hadn't seen the defense the bear defense which means the the center and the two
guards were covered and what they did a lot of time is what we call a stretch defense they would
walk the strong safety or they would put a linebacker over the tight end and they would put
richard dent outside or the defensive end at that time i think it was uh mike one of those guys
outside and what teams were doing they didn't understand how to block it
so they ended you ended up with your running back trying to block block richard dent or he was
trying to block dan hampton and so once they started to fan to it say there's like look the
linebacker is not normally going to come he's going to cover the tight end so what we're going
to do is that we're going to fan protect that so we're going to take our tackle and we're going to kick him out because we know dent or hampton is going to come so we're
going to keep that we're going to kick that right or and what they started to do but it was good at
this if you took your tad in and block richard dent or hampton single uh otis wilson or wilbur
marshall would blitz. So what they
started doing, teams got really smart.
So what they started doing, okay, I'm going to block.
He comes. Now we dump it to the tight end.
Right.
Right away.
If you get an offseason, we're going to find out
what you like to do. We're going to find out a way to
block it. And you had to get it.
And teams are still jumping it from time to time. They'll still
jump into the bare defense. And when you cover up the center and the two guards, we called it Navajo.
A lot of teams call it stretch.
I mean, Bear.
But Bear stretch is that when you put the defensive end outside
and then you cover the tight end.
I know that's a history lesson.
That's a lot of the digest, guys.
But the Ravens were like a basic, a four-man front.
And they played what we call Tampa to a child,
a lot of cover too,
because you weren't going to have a whole lot of time to throw the ball.
You weren't going to have a whole lot of time to cover the ball.
And we had,
think about they had high draft picks.
Chris McAllister was the first round that corner.
Uh,
Dwayne starts with the first round that corner.
Uh,
Pete.
Yeah.
You know me.
Yeah.
You know,
these stars is my quarterback at beach corner. Yeah. You know me. Yeah. You know D. Starks is my quarterback at Beach High.
Yeah.
So they were really good, and they were tenacious.
They won't let you play defense like that anymore, Ocho,
because if you go back and look at it, we played the Bengals,
and you watch the hit that Robert Nett put on Achilles Smith,
and you look at some of the quarterbacks,
the way they knocked them out of the game.
Oh, you getting fined?
You getting thrown out of the game?
They don't let you play
like that. You see how Ray was running through people?
You can't hit.
Oh, you run that shell across?
Ray was knocking
you out. He saw you?
Yeah.
I get the Bears were unbelievable.
They had the bear shuffle you
know they put they came out with the catchy jingle uh uh yeah the crew hey that was the guy
we know what they represent uh i think i forget what super bowl it was it might have been super
bowl nine they had 23 hall of famers on the field. Yes. Jesus.
The Cowboys and the Steelers.
Let that sink in.
You tell me the game you think
you'll see in your lifetime
where there's 23 Hall of Famers
on the field. 23
on the field.
That's crazy.
They probably had 20%, 30%
of the Hall of Famers that was going to go in the Hall of Fame when they went in.
Now, obviously, we're at almost 400 guys in the Pro Football Hall of Fame now.
But I'm biased, so I'm taking the 2,000 Ravens as the greatest defense.
The Ravens.
Another hire.
Chargers hire Jim Harbaugh.
We know what he's done.
We know what he did at San Diego State. We know what he did's done. We know what he did at San Diego State.
We know what he did at Stanford.
We know what he did with the 49ers.
He's a great builder.
He's a great developer of quarterbacks.
We know what he did when he went to Michigan.
He did something that the great Bo Schembechler couldn't do.
That's winning national championship.
He did that.
He accomplished everything that he needed to accomplish um at michigan plus he got
out of there before they could level any sanctions against him and send him on his way uh so i i
think he's great uh for this uh he's flexible uh he's tough now he's gonna grind you now he's gonna
grind you he's old school coach he's gonna on you. But I definitely think he'll help Justin Herbert reach the potential that he should be
because he has all the skills that you can see visibly.
Ocho, the big arm, the height.
He's more athletic than you give him credit for.
He can make all throws, change all angles.
Now it's just a matter of him winning consistently and winning those games that they lose by one, lose by three points.
Maybe Jim Harbaugh can make him find something, dig down inside and pull it out of him.
Yeah, I'm sure Jim is probably going to do that.
I wouldn't call Jim the quarterback whisperer, but he was able to help another quarterback in the past.
Yes. And Alex Smith, who had a bad season.
All of a sudden, Jim Harbaugh comes along and Alex Smith comes back the following
year and has a stellar season, you know, and sort of a jumpstart Alex Smith's career from that point
on. And obviously he got the moniker as being a game manager, blah, blah, blah, but they were
winning games and he was consistent with his play and not turning the ball over. Jim Harbaugh has
been able to do something that not very, very many coaches do.
Sometimes coaches are good in college and sometimes coaches are not good in NFL.
Sometimes coaches are not good in NFL, but they're great in college.
Small example, Nick Saban as an NFL coach.
Not really good.
Not really good.
It didn't resonate too well with the grown men here.
But in college, it's all world.
He's dynamic.
His resume speaks for itself.
Jim Harbaugh is one of the few who was able to get the most out of men and get the most out of kids.
And it's shown with his resume, obviously winning a championship at Michigan.
Now going back to the NFL, where his resume was already great.
Obviously, as an NFL coach, he was 44-19, 5-3 playoff record.
Won the NFC championship in the 2012 season.
Yeah, made his way to camp.
Yeah, we were brother cap.
So, listen, Justin Herbert, when I think about Justin Herbert, when you do the eye test, strong arm, like you said, he's mobile.
The eye test, I want to call him Josh Allen 2.0.
I don't know if I can go there, but I just want to put it that way.
He ain't mobile like Josh now.
He can't run like Josh.
Yeah.
He's not mobile like that, but he can run when need be.
But he does have the arm strength.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
He has the arm angles, the pocket presence.
He has everything else Josh has outside of the mobility.
And I think he's going to do well under Jim Harbaugh.
I like it.
And like you said, there have been very few coaches.
You got to go back to Jimmy Johnson.
He won in college, the national championship.
Went back.
Hey, with the Hurricanes.
Went back to back Super Bowl.
Go to Pete Carroll.
Pete Carroll was tremendous at USC. He didn't have great success at the Hurricanes. One back-to-back Super Bowl. Go to Pete Carroll. Pete Carroll was tremendous at USC.
He didn't have great success at the Jets.
He didn't have great success at New England,
but we know what he did in Seattle.
So, yeah, they're the three coaches
that had success collegiately
and had success, you know,
obviously won Super Bowls in the NFL.
So that speaks volumes.
Yeah, very, very few.
So I like this how about the Chargers?
They needed this.
And plus, you got to win here.
There's too much to do in L.A. if you don't win because they're not coming.
Because you're not the Lakers and you're not the Dodgers.
Because I'm not going to go in no crowd, in no stadium, sit inside of a building and watch you losing
when I can go sit on Melrose or I can go on Wilshire
or I can go to Venice or I can go to the pier
or I can go drink some wine somewhere.
So you've got to win.
And that's why the Rams did what they did.
They understand.
We got this new building.
We got this $3, $5 billion playpen
where we better be some damn good-ass kids to play in it.
So we have some parents to come see these kids play.
And that's what the Chargers need to do.
They got to win to try to get some of those fans that were down in San Diego to drive up.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
To drive up, to see them play.
But I like this hire.
He got the team to do it. at what he got yeah yeah yeah look what he got to work with
defensively asante samuel jr yeah khalil mac i'm not sure what he would what what what the cap is
i'm not sure if he'll be there but you got der Derwin James, you got Bosa. Then on the offensive side as well, Keenan Allen, Mike Williams.
He got to stay healthy.
Mike Williams and Joey Bosa has to stay healthy.
They haven't been able to finish a season in a long period of time, Ocho.
And that's going to be key for them because the guys that you're counting on,
they need to stay healthy.
Now, if I'm counting on you and you're not healthy,
you're not really doing me a whole lot of good that is a very that's a disservice yeah to the charges and to their fan
base they're playing joey bosa a lot of money they gave mike williams my big i think i think
they redid his i think he redid his deal mike williams making good money so he's got to find
a way because he's sensational big guy can run can run the tree, can high point the ball, can make all the
catches. He's tremendous after the catch.
He just has to stay on the field.
Same thing with Joey Bosa.
A defensive rookie of the year, a Pro Bowl
player, can generate pressure, can
get to your quarterback, can take the ball
away from your quarterback, but he has to
stay healthy on the field in order to be able
to compliment Khalil Mack. So I love
this hire.
You look at Harbaugh,
what he was in five years before Harbaugh,
there was 16 and 40 with Harbaugh.
They was 29 and 21.
The 49ers were 33 and 47.
The five years are with heart with before Harbaugh.
When he got there,
there was 44,
19 and one.
You look at Michigan before he he got there, the five years
prior to him arriving,
there was 38-26.
With him there, 89-25
in a national championship, three Big Ten
championships, and three times
they beat the Brakes off of Ohio State.
So you can't do any better than what Jim Harbaugh
did back at his alma mater.
Now, can he do another
rebuild?
And it's not a total rebuild
because they have pieces in place.
Because in college, you have to understand,
Ochoa, when you're going to college,
you've got to get the players
that you need. Now, he's
starting out really good with Khalil Mack,
Joey Bosa, Asante Samuel,
Justin Herbert, Keenan Allen,
Mike Williams. I like the tight end
they got a nice left tackle
and Slater
they got some nice pieces
you got some nice pieces
a piece here or there, change the mindset
let's see
because you know now in that division
you know who's in that division, my homeboy
my homeboy's in that division
oh yeah
oh yeah that's gonna be a good thing i think he's gonna be all right though we talk about harbaugh
he's he's had instant success wherever he's gone so i'm sure he's gonna turn the culture
the coach around right away oh yeah and quick uh so i i really i really like this um like i said
he's he's shown that to uh to be a guy that can build.
He shows that he's a guy that's flexible, that gives guys opportunity.
Because what he did with Cap, he saw something that like, okay, yeah.
And it's the same thing that Andy Reid saw.
There's a ceiling with Alex Smith.
No matter what you think, two quarterbacks said there's a ceiling with Alex Smith. No matter what you think, two quarterbacks said
there's a ceiling
with Alex Smith.
Jim Harbaugh said
I can only go here
with him.
With this guy,
I can go here.
Patrick Mahomes,
Andy Reid said
there's a ceiling
that I can get here
with Alex Smith.
They won the division
several times.
Made the playoffs.
Yeah.
But there's a difference between winning the
division and making the playoffs and being a favorite to win the super bowl every year and
that's what patrick mahomes give you what alex smith couldn't give you so don't want to hear
well look at the weapon alex smith had tyreek alex smith had travis kelsey alex smith had a lot of
the guys that travis kel that Patrick Mahomes had.
He just didn't have what Patrick Mahomes had.
The tool.
He didn't have the tools in the toolbox that Mahome boy got.
So I like this hire.
Good luck for the Chargers.
And hopefully they can get this thing turned around
and they can win some games and they can bring the fans back
because that's a beautiful stadium that they have.
And the Chargers fans deserve to have a winning product
placed on the field on a consistent basis.
So I'm expecting big things out of Jim Harbaugh.
And I think the turnaround is going to be very, very quick.
Oh, yeah.
L.A. Chargers are back at it.
Cam Newton says, Lamar means more to Baltimore than Ray Lewis.
I was having a conversation by a native of Baltimore, and he's like, Lamar Jackson means more to the city than Ray Lewis.
He was asked, do you agree?
Cam, I have to.
Listen, man, certain fans are just a quarter of a moment.
Certain fans are a quarter of a moment.
And you can't forget.
I mean, let me take my glasses off, man.
You can't forget what Ray Lewis has meant, not for just the city of Baltimore,
to the NFL, to the linebacker position where Ray Lewis has meant to the players.
He was able to play against what it felt like to be on that same field and
understanding and knowing you sharing the field was the greatest of all time.
And this is coming from somebody who had to,
who had to deal with him twice a year for a decade straight.
Lamar is great in his own right
i've been watching lamar since high school i've gone to the games and seen him play so i understood
how dynamic and special he was way back before he even got to louisville before he even got to the
baltimore ravens so i understood and knew who lamar jackson was and i already knew he was going
to be special because he's one of those names that reveals all
throughout south florida all throughout south florida but ray lewis is just it's it's just
different i mean he's he's so different in in such a way i can't even conjure up the words to think
on how special ray lewis is to me as a friend you know that that confide in a friend that I talk to
a friend that I pray with before every game
whether we're playing each other
or whether we weren't
it's just different the man has a
statue outside of that M&T
Bank Stadium for a reason
it's different
I think you might be a little better at putting it together than I am as far as how much he meant to the game, not just Baltimore in general.
I can't even put it into words, but I had to take the glasses off.
I'm about to tear up.
I'm getting emotional.
Shit.
Let me try to ask him context. I can't put it. Shit, I don't... Man, it's...
Let me try to ask some context.
I can't put in a word.
Maybe you could put in a word better for me.
Let me try, Ocho.
Build my lip.
The Ravens, the Cleveland Browns,
are the new Baltimore Ravens.
The Ravens were the old Cleveland Browns.
They moved in 1996.
Guess who was...
Jonathan Ogden was the first pick
in baltimore ravens history the second pick was ray lewis
when the baltimore ravens weren't renting anything they had sugar bear they had ray lewis
ray lewis yeah oh actually i gave i gave him that name oh I did. I absolutely did.
When you look at the Baltimore Ravens and you think about what they were and look at when you think of the Ravens, you think of Ray Lewis.
Now, I understand Lamar Jackson.
Now, when it's all said and done, we might be having a different conversation.
But you're talking about a guy that's a two-time defensive player of the year,
a Super Bowl MVP.
And when the Ravens didn't have a whole lot they had that guy they had five two that laid it on the line a very
emotional very impactful player you're talking about one of the greatest players in the history
the seventh the 100th anniversary team one of the middle linebackers is dick buckus the other is ray
lewis so i look it's can we have a discussion arguably you're talking about the two greatest is Dick Buckus. The other is Ray Lewis. So, look,
can we have a discussion?
Arguably, you're talking about the two greatest players
in Raven history already.
Obviously, you could make a case for Jonathan Ogden,
but he's an offensive lineman, and they
don't get normally the credit that a quarterback
or a middle linebacker does.
But when you're talking about the importance,
you can't just look
at the guy that has flash.
And Lamar is sensational.
And so I don't want people to take this wrong.
But when you think about the Baltimore Ravens, what's the first thing that comes to your mind?
Defense.
Defense.
When you think of a Raven, you think of Ray Lewis.
He's the de facto right now.
Like I said, when lamar jackson is done
we might be having a different conversation but right now he's a different conversation
he was it when the ravens weren't weren't very good they had one guy that stood out
and that you went to see and that was five two because he was sideline to sideline you know
it's funny impactful he was emotional he made sureeline. He was impactful. He was emotional.
He made sure every other player on that defense rose to the level that he demanded of himself
and he expected nothing less from the players
that played on that field with him.
Most of the time,
the position and the stardom and the fame
and the command of the eye and the ability to fill seats normally comes from an offensive position.
Sometimes it's a stellar personality that's sometimes a quarterback or sometimes a receiver.
Very seldom are people coming to a game to see one defensive player.
Very seldom are people coming to a game to see one defensive player.
One defensive player.
That's how impactful and special Ray Lewis was, man.
It's different and it's hard.
I'm mad.
I'm fucking, excuse me.
I'm sorry.
I'm a curse.
That's $5 in the pot.
I'm mad. I can't put the words together to describe how special Ray Lewis was.
And I am on the opposite end of the spectrum on offense and having to play against him.
And even I understand, as great as Lamar Jackson is right now,
Ray means so much more in a completely different stratosphere for that goddamn matter.
It's crazy.
And the thing is, Ocho, I don't know how active in the community
that Lamar is, but I know how active Ray Lewis was in the community
and how active that he still is.
Yeah.
And like you said, there are very few guys.
And normally, it's not middle linebackers.
You go see the Lawrence Taylors.
You go see the guys that chase down the quarterback.
Yeah.
But Ray Lewis was a guy that you went to see because he was sideline to sideline and he was a thumper and so not only is he going sideline to sideline
you're watching him chase guys down you're watching him take big guys on um and so we can
we're gonna revisit this i'm sure once lamar jackson's career is over we'll be able to to
revisit this but what ray has meant to that the raven way the raven is
is ray when you think of the raven you think of ray uh and that's no slight to lamar like i said
i'm i i think i don't know because i don't i'm not around the uh the ravens and i don't really
follow that closely anymore i don't really follow anything because I have to have a general knowledge about the whole league, but I'm
pretty familiar with it.
But, man,
you know, like I
said, we can have this discussion.
Ed Reed, another guy that's
dynamic, that made the all-century team
the greatest safety that I ever
played against, and I played against
some great ones.
Ray,
a seven-time first-team All-Pro, a 13-time
Pro Bowl selection.
Ravens Ring of Honor.
Look,
the chat wanted me to mention Ed.
Look, I played against Ed early
in his career. And after
taking him off on tape, watching
him play, studying him after
I left the league, I was convinced I had played against the greatest safety that had ever played,
and he was only two or three years into his career.
That's what, when I watched him on tape, when I played against him,
and when I took him off on tape after I left the league, I was convinced.
And that's no disrespect.
I played against Ronnie.
I played against Rod Woodson. I played against Ronnie. I played against Rod Woodson.
I played against Troy Palamalu.
I played against some guys that's in the hall.
I played against Aeneas. Aeneas
ended up moving to safety. He started as a corner.
Ed Reed was the
greatest safety that I played against,
that I watched, that I played against, and that
I took off on tape. Now, that's where
I'm at. And some people might say, well, it's Ronnie.
Or some people might say it's Rod Woodson. Or they might say it's Troy Palamalu. Okay, that's where I'm at. And some people might say, well, it's Ronnie. Or some people might say
it's Rod Woodson.
Or they might say
it's Troy Palomaro.
Okay, that's fine.
I'm not...
But I'm just saying
for what I saw,
what I played against,
that's where I am on that.
But, guys,
y'all do understand.
Cam said,
Lamar Jackson means
more to Baltimore
than Ray Lewis.
This was not a discussion.
Who's who's Ed Reed is better than Ray or that.
I have to discuss what the topic was.
Y'all bring it other things that wasn't even a topic.
If I ask, if I ask you for don't tell me why you don't like chicken.
Chicken is just as good as a burger.
Damn, that wasn't a question.
Hmm. I like I wasn't the question. Hmm.
I like it, though.
That's a tough one, too.
That's a tough one to talk about.
That's a tough one to talk about
because as fans,
we are so caught up in the now
and we forget.
Yes.
We forget what was.
We forget what was
and I ain't finna let that one fly. Not when it come to sugar
now. You ain't finna do sugar like
that.
What about Sean
Taylor and this? Sean didn't play
long enough. Maybe Sean could
have challenged Ed. Maybe he could have
challenged some of the greats. The Troys
and the Ronnie Loss and the Rod
Wilson. You talk about Deion. Deion only
played two years at safety.
I don't look at time as a safety.
I look at time as a corner.
Time is a corner.
Time is in a clamp.
Time is,
is it a class by himself when it comes to the cornerback position?
And you know,
look,
I know about a lot of the corners,
but time is it.
But the question was about.
Lamar Jackson and Ed Reed.
And no slight, Lamar is fabulous.
He's about to be a two-time league.
No, Lamar and Ray Lewis.
That's what the topic was, Ocho.
And then people were like, well, okay, well, let's add these guys to the question.
But right now, for me, I think Ray, because of when he got drafted there, what he means to the city because of his impact within the city.
I think that's what gives him that.
That's just me.
But hey, Cam has his opinion.
I'm sure there are other people in Baltimore that says it's Lamar.
And I'm just, that's my opinion.
And so, hey, that's, that's just that's my opinion and so hey that's that's that's where i'm
at with that the nfl has has have seen six coaches hired this cycle three black coaches is that a
record or something in one cycle uh gerard mayo uh got here hired by the patriots antonio pierce
got the interim tag removed from him he's now the full-time head coach of the Raiders.
And the Falcons just hired Raheem Morris,
former DC of the Rams, Los Angeles Rams.
He was also head coach of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at one point in time.
Dave Canales, is that how you say his name?
Canales.
Was hired by the Panthers, Mexican-American, making him the only Hispanic coach
because Tom Flores was also Mexican-American as well as the guy that just got released in Washington.
What was his name?
Ron Rivera.
Ron Rivera.
Ron Rivera.
Oh, actually, it says
Canales is the fifth coach
of Latino descent.
Tom Fears. Tom Fears
held the record for the most
catches in a game
with, I think he had
19.
T.O. broke that, had 20, and then
obviously Brandon Marshall ended up having
21. Tom Flores, Ron Rivera, and Brian Flores.
So congratulations, Dave Canales,
as being named head coach of the Panthers.
You got your work cut out for you.
Hopefully the owner gives you more than 10 months.
Three years.
I just hope he gets more than three months.
David Tepper.
You need about three years
to turn a team around, especially
with what the Panthers are working with now.
You know you need about three.
Josh McDaniels, I think
he's white,
black. Is he
Latino-American?
What is he? Mike McDaniel from the
The
Uh
With
Pierce, Morris, and Mayo
the NFL now has six
black head coaches. Mike Tomlin
Pittsburgh Steelers, Todd Bowles
Tampa Bay, D'Amico Ryan
Houston, Mike McDaniels identified as
multiracier Robert Sala
is Lebanese and
that's it so
all the guys that got hired congratulations
Raheem Morris
Antonio Pierce AP Gerard
Mayo congratulations guys go out there do your thing and show guys that they can do it So Raheem Morris, Antonio Pierce, AP, Gerard Mayo, congratulations, guys.
Go out there, do your thing, and show guys that they can do it.
And once they're given an opportunity, they can compete.
So congratulations to all those guys.
To Canales, that's Dave Canales that's going to the Panthers.
Congratulations to you also.

And today's Daily Dumb Dumb Award goes to no other than Kayshaun Boutte.
He got the right name.
That's the right name.
That name put him.
That name put.
I think you said it wrong.
Booty.
Oh, that's the even word, booty.
That's the name.
That's the name, booty.
That ain't how you say it.
You got to say it like with a New Orleans accent.
I think that's like...
I don't know how to pronounce it the right way.
Booty. Kayshawn. No, that ain't no B don't know how to pronounce it the right way. Booty.
Kayshawn.
No, there ain't no Boucher.
It's not no Boucher.
It's booty.
However you want to pronounce it, it's fitting in this situation.
You got to put some little New Orleans slang on it, like a little New Orleans twang to it.
But even if you put the twang to it, it means booty know how to say it the right way. It means booty.
And it's a bad thing in this situation.
Keyshawn Booty,
however you want to say it, was arrested
today in Baton Rouge,
Louisiana,
for allegedly
illegal gambling on sports
when he went
to LSU.
Booty, or Booty, placed more than 8 900 bets from april 6th
which is my brother's birthday 2022 until may 7 2023 now mind you he placed almost 9 000 bets
in 397 days more than 22 bets a day.
He made at least 17 bets on college football games,
including at least six on LSU.
Now, here's the thing.
Now, normally, Ocho,
when you like doing something illegal,
you try to go out of your way.
I'm not going to use my name.
I'm not going to be, you know,
if I'm rob going to use my name. I'm not going to be, you know, if I'm
robbing banks or something,
I'm going to use a stolen car.
I'm not going to use my car.
Let me tell you what
Dumb Dumb did. Now, you would think,
Ocho, you know you're not supposed to be gambling,
illegal gambling,
or definitely not be gambling on
college football or your game.
Guess what Dumb Dumb, guess what his username was?
I'm going to give you one guess what you think his username was.
I'm saying his first name, KB.
Okay, KShaw, last name B.
Maybe KB and his number.
So let that figure people out.
Am I right?
Ladies and gentlemen in the chat,
his username
to place these illegal bets
was Kayshaun Boutte.
His actual
name.
His actual name.
How do you think they called Dumb Dumb?
Thank you.
He used his real name?
That's why he get the dumb dumb of the day award
so hold up he was placing so many bets that that account couldn't handle it so he had to
get another account guess what this one was kashon bootay zero one hey wait let me let me wait let me let me get my parents right i ain't i've been out of college a
very long time gambling on your phone on games is illegal correct look in the nfl you can't gamble
on nfl property so if you place in the bed on your phone you can't be at the NFL you can't gamble on NFL property so if you placing a bet on your phone you can't
be at the stadium you can't be at the practice facility or you can't be on NFL business that's
where a lot of the guys were getting in trouble they were placing bets while at work now in college
I don't really know the college situation but I don't think you're supposed to be betting on college football.
And you're definitely not supposed to be betting on your own team because you can influence the outcome of that.
Now, if you're a professional golfer, Phil Mickelson, Tiger Woods, all those guys, John Rahm, they can bet on themselves because why?
It's an individual sport.
So you can bet on yourself
to win.
Damn, man.
8,900?
8,900 bets. Almost 9,000
bets in 397
days. And not only was
he doing something illegal,
the dum-dum, his
dum-dum of the day award,
he used his actual
his actual username
hey
can you
you got to help me out
now you know
you know I'm not a gambler like that
I'm
I don't really spend my money like that
so you gotta
you gotta
give me a better understanding on
I understand it's illegal
but
it's an arrestable offense I understand it's illegal but is it
an arrestable offense even if it's
two years ago?
Yes, it's just like
I'm not
saying he did that, it's kind of like
I don't know if you remember the
fixing of the games
like Headache
Headache Smith, the guy Arizona
State Headache, they state, Arizona state,
uh,
headache.
They called him headache.
There was another guy who was,
uh,
uh,
was a hot rod.
Williams.
There's another guy there.
There have been some guys that was involved and,
you know,
and,
and,
and,
and that's why,
you know,
that's why the NFL was so hesitant with the gambling situation.
Right.
Because of this.
And this is why Ocho,
they released the injury report because they
want everybody to have the information because if everybody don't have the information right and now
you got a team official you know tom brady ain't gonna even play right oh he not hey give me the
give me give me give me the i i'm gonna take the team the patriots player i'll give you those points
oh hey check this out.
You know, hey, you know Dak ain't playing.
You know Mahomes injured.
Really?
Now.
Right.
That's why the NFL tries to put everything on the up and up so they can't nobody.
Because you know they got the fish.
And once you get in depth, once they get them hooks in you, now I got you.
Mm-hmm.
Man, listen, I don't understand gambling i'm gonna be honest with you i don't it's two for one for one you already know i don't
like spending money for two if i'm not in control if not if i'm not in sole control that's why they
don't want you gambling because you are in control. You're a wide receiver
that's actually playing in the game
so you can influence the game.
Oh, okay.
Right, right.
And I don't like that.
I just don't understand.
I wish people got a hold of themselves
when it came to gambling a little bit more.
You're already making good money.
Obviously, in college, you have NIL deals.
I'm not sure if NIL was in place actually when he was playing but you get enough money at some point you're gonna make
it to the league there's no need to be greedy about it there's no need to be greedy about it
with gambling it got too many moving goddamn parts got and that got not god got is too many
goddamn parts but you don't understand oh you're even understand. And you're not making that much money where you have to
do it. It ain't that much money.
Okay, you got the Ravens
and you got Kansas City.
Ravens are favored by three and a half.
Are you going to give the Ravens the three and a half?
Do you believe the Ravens are going to win
by four points or more?
Do you believe the Kansas City Chiefs
will cover the... Will they lose by four points, three. What don't you understand? Do you believe the Kansas City Chiefs will cover the, will they lose by three and a half,
by four points,
three and a half or less?
What is that?
I mean, it's not that simple.
Listen to what I'm saying.
How much are you winning?
Is it going to make that much of a difference?
It's just that you're winning.
When you go,
when people go put nickels in the slot,
it's not like they're winning
millions of dollars. It's the fact that you're winning. When people go put nickels in the slot, it's not like they're winning millions of dollars.
It's the fact that you're winning.
Right.
Okay, I see what you're saying.
Just the feeling of actually winning,
but you're not getting a significant amount
that's life-changing where you just have to do it,
if that makes sense.
But people don't understand.
That's just me.
You actually think they're building those buildings in Vegas
with winner's money?
They're building those buildings with loser's money.
Hell, that's how they keep the lights on.
You think I should, matter of fact, when we go to Vegas, you think I should try gambling?
No, because if you don't understand the game, I'm not going to learn a game with my money.
I'm going to already know how to play.
Well, you're going to tell me and then I'm going to already know how to play. Well,
you going to tell me,
and then I'm going to bet based on what you tell me.
You need to understand,
like I play blackjack.
I understand the rules of blackjack and you need to be at a table where
everybody understands the rule about jack,
because it's the one game that somebody can F it up.
If they take a card and they shouldn't, or they should take a card and they don't.
So you have to be at a table where people know what the F they doing because they'll make mess the whole table up.
So that's why, you know, I don't really, you know, I go and if I'm a play, if I play blackjack now, I'm playing 10, 15, $25 a hand.
I lose a thousand dollars. now, I'm playing $10, $15, $25 a hand. I lose $1,000.
Okay, I'm good.
But there are once upon a time I'm playing $500, $1,000, $2,500 a hand.
I needed people at the table to understand.
Hold on.
Hold on.
Hold on.
Hold on.
You lose $1,000 on $20, $25 a hand.
You okay?
And then you also play $25 a hand?
You play over a period of time.
And that's the thing.
If you go to the casino, you don't see clocks on the wall
because they want you to lose track of time.
And they keep pumping that fresh oxygen in there to keep your ass awake.
So you don't see the clock.
You don't see anything that's going on.
What time is it?
It's dark.
You don't know when the sun's up, sun's down.
You start playing, you lose track of time.
Next thing you know, boom, you're in the hole.
Understand, Ojo? Come on time. Next thing you know, boom, you're in the hole. Understand?
Oh, Joe, come on now.
You say you like chess?
They play checkers.
But I tell you what, he got the right name because where he about to go,
they're going to love him.
Boo-tay.
They're going to tell him off.
I mean, he don't got to go to jail.
I mean, obviously, we got to jail.
You're going to burn out.
But all you have to do is just pay a fine, right?
You don't get to commit no crime until you're on crime. And then say, oh, I'm, we got to jail. You're going to burn out. But then all you have to do is just pay a fine, right?
You don't get to commit no crime until you're on crime.
And then say, oh, I'm going to pay a fine and everything's going to be good.
That's up to the DA.
There's a chance he might go to jail. He might go to jail and they're going to let that boot change.
They're going to tear him up.
Hide the booty.
Wait.
There she blows.
You should buy jail time. Yeah. J she blows. You talking about jail time?
Yeah.
Jail time?
And then, hold on.
On top of jail time, you also have to deal with the commissioner after that.
And have discipline.
Absolutely.
They suspended Alex Karras.
They suspended Paul Horning for betting.
Yeah. Yeah.
Whoa, whoa, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
Can what happened in college still be
held against him if he's already in the NFL?
Remember, this is 2022. You said this
is 2022. So can the NFL still
come in with something that was that was long
before he got to the NFL? But we
saw them do that with
a prior.
Remember, he got in trouble, Ohio State.
Right.
And they ended up suspending him.
Oh, yeah.
He gave the paraphernalia and his signing stuff.
And they ended up suspending him for something that happened in college
when they weren't supposed to.
So the NFL kind of operates on their own.
But I'll just go talk about, hey, bro, I just don't get it,
Ocho. That's what I don't get.
You actually,
first of all, they're going to find out
because somebody's going to know who it is.
Hey, man, check this out. The same way
them NFL players that got popped
for gambling, they got
people in the league that's running this information.
Yes!
They watch everything.
You heard me?
They know your homeboys.
They know the type of people you hang with.
They know where you go.
They know what you like to do.
But they know everything about you.
The stuff you think they don't know.
Yes!
Yeah.
But they know everything.
Everything.
It's crazy.
He's also accused of creating an online betting account under a fictitious name and
placing illegal bets while he was
under the age of 21 and not
legally allowed to gamble.
Hmm.
Oh, they ain't playing. They backtracking too.
You remember Calvin Ridley?
Okay.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But like i said
calvin really was a first round draft pick making millions he hustling backwards because what he did
he won a hundred dollars or fifty dollars and lost 11 million so okay this is what i'm gonna do
i will give you a chance you wage 11 million and you can win a hundred dollars
now you tell me in what scenario does that make sense to you
yeah I don't think about like that though you got 11 million dollars salary you're Ocho how many
times did you walk into the locker room and you see that game no
gambling allowed in the nfl how many times you walk past that sign in cincinnati i walked the
past it every day during the season for 14 years in denver and in baltimore so it's on every wall
in every nfl locker, no gambling, period.
I got an $11 million salary.
I'm willing to risk my $11 million salary to win $500.
If that ain't hustling backwards.
Yeah.
You would think in your right state of mind, you you would think in that when you're in your right
state of mind you don't think like that but obviously he wasn't thinking that there was
a possibility of getting caught until you actually did why are you you not no criminal like that
and if you do anything you're gonna get caught do you think they catch drug dealers? Right. Because they don't know when the journey's over.
Nobody said, hey, you get that one score.
You should quit or you could quit.
But you what you say, Ocho, just one more.
Yeah.
Just one more.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Like I used to I used to work for I used to work for Griselda.
Never mind.
I ain't gonna bring that up right now.
So also we got another dumb, dumb of the, of the, of the.
What?
Wait, there is an arrest warrant issue for a motorcyclist after, after he posted a video of a 20 minute drive from Colorado Springs to Denver.
Hey, is that bad?
Colorado Springs to
Denver is at least 75
miles.
He got there in
20 minutes.
He was traveling at speeds of over
150 on a crotch rocket.
He recorded
himself doing this.
Wait, what was he
driving? A motorcycle?
Man, you know
how fast that is? You know how fast
it is to get somewhere that's 75 miles
in just 20 minutes? You know how fast 150 miles
an hour is? So if you can go 150
miles an hour... On a
bicycle at that. Let me bicycle.
On a motorcycle. That's a different
ball game.
You know,
one mistake,
you gone.
Boy,
he better than me.
Yes.
Hey,
was that,
let me guess.
This was for TikTok or something,
huh?
For the gram,
he posted it.
Come on,
man.
They coming to get you,
boy.
They coming to get you.
We need, we need to see you reckless driving, putting other people's lives in danger, putting your own life in danger. If get you, boy. They're coming to get you. We need to see you reckless driving,
putting other people's lives in danger,
putting your own life in danger.
It's at least normally, like I said,
the time of day obviously impacts that,
but it's like 75, 80 miles,
so it's normally going to take you
at least 60 to 75 minutes.
Yes.
And he did it in 20.
That's crazy. They got him. it in 20. That's crazy.
They got him.
They found him.
I can't.
Yeah.
Oh, they got him already.
So this is what they charged him with.
They're going to throw all types of stuff.
Another person in fear of imminent serious bodily danger,
engaged in a speed contest,
reckless endangerment,
reckless driving,
speeding at 40 miles an hour over the prima
fide limit so whatever the limit was you afford so he's what they call uh uh what they call it
in georgia no a super speed they call those super speeders when you yes when you go i think it's
30 miles an hour over the limit i think that that's what in Georgia's calling super speed. Over the limit. Okay. It gave an exhibition of speed.
Vehicle had no number plates attached.
But he was smart enough not to put no tags on his vehicle.
He was.
So the only reason they found him is because of the account he posted it to.
All for bragging.
High fan.
The things we do. See? See the little joke? See? For the gram fan the things we do
see
the things we do
great content
I'm sure that's the way you make money though
the more views he gets
the more followers he gets
the more money you're able to make
now you got
so really
probably none
probably none
oh yeah for sure you you motorcycle license as a super speeder
right yes ah just to get that content
15 miles an hour in georgia considered a super speed okay i know i i 15 miles an hour in Georgia to consider the super speed. Okay. I know I...
15 miles an hour over, so the speed
limit 55, if you're going 87,
you consider a super speeder?
Oh, the 25? Look at the
super speeder law in Georgia.
I thought it was 30, but it might...
We'll see what it is. But I
do know that's what it's called.
I was one of those guys,
but that was before the law.
I got stopped.
I got stopped twice in a matter of 10 minutes.
I got stopped going 108 and a 55 and I got stopped 92.
Dang, how can you be speeding like that?
So anything over 85 on a two lane road 85 more on any other road or highway so anything over 85
on a three
lane anything 75 miles
an hour over on a two lane road
85 miles an hour
over 85 miles an hour so there's
really no set number if you're going
85 or more on a three lane road
that's considered a super speeder
but at the time Ocho there was
no super speeder I was in the time, Ocho, there was no super speeder.
I was in college, you know,
and I was on a... There was like...
I was going this way
and I saw the cop.
I saw the cop.
And he...
Right.
You know, he slammed on the brake
and the rear end come up.
I'm like, brother,
you can't do nothing to me.
You over there, I'm over here.
Because it's a median
and there's wires.
So he can't go. I forgot about
that guy dang on walkie-talkie.
Right
on the head.
Ocho. I got up the
road.
Right. No, I ain't got no
answer. I wouldn't even think that he
was going to call ahead. Dude was already
out of his car.
What you did?
Point and pull it over.
Oh, he was ready for you.
They had like three of them over there.
They pulled me over.
I got a ticket on 108.
Yeah.
I ain't learned my lesson.
Got another ticket about two miles, like four miles down the road, going 92.
Wait, you went back going fast again i was i was headed home
no you want i was a college student okay you yeah oh yeah you know after that time i ain't
really drove because at that time everything was in my brother's name and so uh obviously he gonna find out because the the the
agent knew my brother personally and he called and told him oh yeah the thing was with him like
like i said me and my brother have a very unique relationship it's more like he's my father than
my brother even though he's only three years older because my sister is the same way because
they basically raised me my grandpa you know my you know my grandmother was working and my grandfather was kind of sick at the time.
And my mom was in Chicago.
So we were living with my grandparents.
And so my sister and brother is kind of like my mom and my dad.
But he ain't Yale.
I just remember him calling me.
He said, Shannon.
He said, what's his name?
Ashley.
That's the insurance agent's name.ley he said he told me you got
stopped going actually i talked called him i called him before ashley could tell him and uh
i told him bro man i got stopped he said how fast you was going i said i was going 108 and i was
going 92 and the thing was oh joe i went to the thing and paid it out of my pocket I had them bands on me
you know what I'm saying
bro had me right
I had my boy
you know
I pulled the hands
of the thing
they put me
you know
hey
I got in the car
my homeboy was with me
they drove
they drove to the police station
they said it's gonna be
X amount of dollars
I counted them things
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I
I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I things out. Hey, I like a money counter.
I peel them hundreds off there. They're looking at me like,
how does your company got that?
Don't worry about all that. Don't worry about that.
Don't worry about that, Brandon.
I peel them things off.
Got up out of there.
Went back again. Hey, went
right back. Damn it. Damn it. I believe they took
me back to the same police station.
I peel some more off.
But I called him. I said, bro, they started back. Damn it. Damn it. I believe they took me back to the same police station. I peeled some more. But I called him. I said, bro, they thought that guy was going
108 and a 55. I was going 92.
And he just, I just remember
him calmly saying, he said,
Shannon, you blow
a tire, you hit somebody.
He said, forget
you. What you
think that's going to do to granny?
That's all he had to do to granny. That's
all he had to say, Shannon.
He said,
you know, you the baby,
you know how granny feel about you.
If you were to
kill yourself,
you might as well put granny in the box with you.
Or somebody else.
That's all I needed to hear.
That's it.
So, learn my lesson, to hear. That's it. Yeah.
So learn my lesson.
Don't you learn my lesson?
It's so,
it's so funny.
We talk about speed and you know,
I,
I pull up, I,
I pulled up driving a Ferrari the past two days.
You know,
I normally,
I normally don't point any of the toys out.
I'm,
I'm very simple.
I'm either,
I'm either in my suburban that I have all the kids when I'm going to be able to do something,
we go somewhere, or I'm driving my little smart car.
So I decided to pull out.
And the funny thing about it is people were making fun of me because I took a picture
and I'm driving.
Obviously, I'm listening to Frank Sinatra and I'm driving.
I took a picture.
I'm driving and you know how fast i was going on the highway
and people was making fun of me and i was doing about 45 miles an hour
yeah it's like i've i've lost i've lost that um what's what's the word i'm looking for i lost the
the yeah man and i'm and it's just i think the fact that it's worn on me so much that i haven't
been in that type of mental state where the need to get somewhere fast it's just not in me anymore
especially based on maybe maybe age maybe i've matured a little bit maybe the music i'm listening
to is why i was driving that slow but i thought i I was going just fine. And it dawned on me when people were laughing at me
in the comments,
you were only doing 45 miles an hour.
I would ask,
what the fuck are you doing?
It's like dawning,
like, God damn,
what the hell has changed?
What the hell is wrong with me?
The fact that I don't even take advantage
of some of the perks
and some of the things
that I worked my ass off for
to where it's like,
it's nothing
anymore that's weird i don't know at what point in life i got to this space where i'm at now
at the time i didn't have kids and so you you think do a different prism once you have kids
because now um all of a sudden you have something to live for see that's the thing see people think somebody
that that that's not afraid of dying is the most dangerous person
it's a person that finds a way to live that's the most dangerous person because most of the time
you hear people say when they have these stories and they're in a situation they keep saying to themselves they're not saying i'm gonna die that says i'm gonna live i got this person
that's back home and i'm gonna see them right so now all of a sudden you got kids you have
responsibilities when i didn't have no responsibility i didn't look at it like that and i didn't even
at the time when i was doing it i didn't even cross my mind because if I had thought about my granny,
yeah, I would have never done it in the first place.
Right. Because I
already know she go like, ooh,
Lord have mercy.
And so
that was my
thing, but I definitely
wasn't going to post it. It wasn't something
that wasn't my proudest moment. It wasn't something
like, hey man, you know your boy was going to 108 and 92 yada yada yada yeah nah at that point in time you know
you're young you think you're invincible you really think you can fly you know i had a uh yeah
yeah a white with peanut butter with peanut butter guns, Mercedes.
No, it wasn't convertible.
It wasn't convertible.
It had a 300E.
You know, Kumo D, when he came up with that song, he had a Benz 190.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Wait, not Wild Wild West. No, no, no, not the Wild Wild West.
Wild Wild West.
Okay, okay, okay, okay.
I'm driving Benz 190 3., and you know where to find me.
Girls behind me, jockeying blindly.
No need to remind me who I am.
You know you know me.
Stop.
Yeah, but I had to beat the 300D, so I had to step above that.
Yeah.
Man, it's just like I said, you know, you live and you learn,
and, you know, as you get older, live and you learn and you know as you get older
things that you did you look back like what the f that i do that i mean i'll be coming there are a
lot of things that you look back on and some of you like okay that's an experience i'm glad i did
that and then other things you're like bro god man god was really looking out for you bro so uh
back by popular demand Spello
Cinco
Spello Cinco
is where we
I give you a word

february
february feb February. F-E-B R-U-N-R-Y
That's good.
That's real good.
This one, I think
it implies it's kind of like you
because I'm sure
there have been plenty of females that have told you
you displayed or
exhibited this type of behavior
or personality.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah uh i think just hold your hands
up like this because i gotta make sure you're not you know you're not getting serious like
spelling these words out for you so yeah keep your head right there it looks straight here yeah
uh the next word we're gonna spell is called narcissistic narcissistic
stop looking down stop looking down see y'all looking down look at that close your eye close narcissistic. Narcissistic.
Stop looking down.
Stop looking down.
See y'all looking down.
Look at that.
Close your eyes.
Close your eyes.
Because normally when those kids spell,
they have the little thing like right here.
Narcissistic.
Okay.
Can I get the origin of the word?
Can I get the word used in a sentence?
Okay.
Word used in a sentence.
Chad Ochocinco Johnson is a narcissistic person.
Nar.
I don't think anyone has ever called me narcissistic.
I'm not sure what the meaning of narcissistic is.
You do know what it is.
But no, I don't.
I'm not narcissistic.
I'm just Ocho.
N-A-R.
Narcissistic.
No, I don't know how to spell that one.
I ain't going to lie to you.
You good.
You good.
Spell it out.
Narcissistic. N-A-R-C-I-S-S-I-N-A-R-C-I-S-S-I-N-A-R-C-I-S-S-I-N-A-R-C-I-S-S-I-N-A-R-C-I-S-S-I-N-A-R-C-I-S-S-I-N-A-R-C-I-S-S-I-N-A-R-C-I-S-S-I-N-A-R-C-I-S-S-I-N-A-R-C-I-S-S-I-N-A-R-C-I-S-S-I-N-A-R-C-I-S-S-I-N-A-R-C-I-S-S-I-N-A-R-C-I-S-I-N-A-R-C-I-S-I-N-A-R-C-I-S-I-N-A-R-C-I-S-I-N-A-R-C-I-S-I-N-A-R-C-I-S-I-N-A-R-C-I-S-I-N-A-R-C-I-S-I-N-A-R-C-I-S-I-N-A-R-C-I-S-I-N-A-R-C-I-S-I-N-A-R-C-I-S-I-N-A-R-C-I-S-S-I-T-I-C?
Narcissistic.
N-A-R-C-I-S-S-I-T-I-C?
No?
I-S-T-I-C.
Okay, yeah.
I don't know how to spell that.
That's a good one right there.
Hey, what is the definition of narcissistic anyway?
Because I see on Twitter all the time,
I think people use it
in the wrong term and give it to
every goddamn body.
So what do you think?
They use narcissistic
with every goddamn body.
Everything. Every word. Anybody do anything
wrong? Oh, he's narcissistic.
What is the meaning of narcissistic?
If a belief or having a
very high, high self
interest in
oneself
is that you put
above all
other things. It does not matter
someone else's feelings. It doesn't matter
someone else's.
It's all about Ocho.
No, no, no everybody everybody's a narcissist in some sense but you can't be like that in all things
okay okay okay okay i see what you mean i see oh i got this one because this one is is really good
and i think you'll be great because you like words were silent and you don't really
have to say it yeah so how about this
I was sick the other day and I think
I had a bout of pneumonia
oh pneumonia
yes pneumonia P
N E
M O N I A
yep huh yeah N-E-M-O-N-I-A.
Yep.
Huh?
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
No, I'm right now.
I know I'm right.
No, you can.
No, no, no, no. Actually, you forgot the U.
It's P-N-E-U.
Okay.
I said N-E-U.
Monia, M-O-N-I-A.
Paradigm. Oh, Paradigm. okay i said you monia m-o-n-i-a paradigm oh paradigm p-a-r-a-d-y-m-e no no no it is sounds like paradigm but that's not how you spell oh say it again oh
is d-y-n
d-y-n-e or am I wrong
paradigm
as d-i-m-e
but that's not how it's spelled
that's how it sounds
that's why sometimes
the sound can confuse the spelling
paradigm the sound can confuse the spelling. Paradigm.
For some reason, paradigm.
For some reason, I bet it's D-I-M-E, huh?
You keep spelling dime.
That's the coin.
That's a currency.
A D-I-M-E is a dime.
That is a currency that's after a nickel.
Yeah, you notice I said
D-Y first, right? Because I thought
it was going to be a little tricky.
P-A-R
paradigm.
How do they
spell it?
Uh-huh. Come on. P-A-R
A
D-I-R p-a-r-a d-i-r-a yeah d and this was confusing d-i-m no
yes wait g-m-e g-m that's it that's it paradigm that makes no fucking... You were close though, Ocho.
Yeah, you were close.
I thought you had it.
I like...
We got to do this every show.
I like the spelling thing.
I like the spelling thing.
Question. Would you be shocked
if the Lions upset the 49ers?
No.
Am I picking the Lions? Here it is. Am I picking the Lions?
Here it is.
Do I believe the Lions could beat
the 49ers in a
best of seven? No.
I don't. But you don't have to.
I just have to be better than
you that day.
It's like a boxing
match. It's like
a UFC fight.
It doesn't matter.
I just need to be better than you one day for one game.
Yeah.
That's why we love football.
Because in the World Series, you've got to beat somebody four times.
In basketball, you've got to beat somebody in a series four times. In basketball, you got to beat somebody in a series
four times.
In football, we saw
the Giants beat
the 18-1
New England
Patriots. Do we believe
the Giants could beat them four times?
No, I don't.
But they didn't have to.
So, yes, the Giants could absolutely,
excuse me, the Lions could absolutely
on a given Sunday, yes.
Yeah.
That's what makes that game so good.
Let's see.
RDR said, what's up, Okonocho?
I have a hypothetical scenario.
If Dak asked Dallas
and was out of the trade
to Atlanta but Dallas asked for three first
round picks would you take that deal
hell no
Patrick Mahomes
Patrick Mahomes
is going for three first round picks
and he might be the only one
now you might get two or some change
for Joe Burrow you might get two or some
change for Josh Allen.
But three first-round picks, if
Kansas City called up,
quarterback might,
but not that. Joe Burrow might go. Joe Burrow,
Josh Allen, Lamar
Jackson.
But can we believe that Lamar Jackson's
going to go for it? Because, hell, wouldn't nobody give him
two first-round picks last year.
But there ain't no question in my
mind if somebody if Kansas City called
and said look we got Patrick Mahomes
on the block how many
teams would give up three first rounders for Patrick
Mahomes Chicago
got all those picks they trade all
they damn pick they'd be like what New Orleans
did for Ricky Williams we'll give you all
our picks
right but, I do
not believe that would go for three
first round picks. That's just me.
Do you believe
that goes for three first round picks?
No, no. I think maybe
a first round. A first and a second, a first
and a third. A two.
A first and a two.
A first and a two. I like me personally. This is a hypothetical the two. I like me
personally. This is a hypothetical
for Atlanta. I like Justin Fields
better to Atlanta than Dak.
I like Dak and Dallas.
I like Dak and Dallas.
They're going to get
a situation over there. They're going to do what they need
to do. There's one thing
they need to do. There's been one
common denominator.
They just need to take a backseat and let them boys
do what they do.
Let the coaches coach. Let the players play.
I think they're going to be fine.
In y'all's opinion,
what player had not been for injury
would have went on to become an all-time great?
Basketball, Brandon Roy.
He was sensational.
Greg Oden.
You know what?
I would have liked to seen Grant Hill.
Even though he did make the Hall of Fame,
had that ankle.
Had he not because he would play.
T-Mac, even though he made the Hall
of Fame, can you imagine what T-Mac career
would have been?
Bo Jackson.
Yeah, hell.
Bo, the hip injury.
I was in the league when Bo was doing it,
and he was playing both ways.
I think he would have been great to see what he could have been
had he just played one or the other,
but he was dynamic in both.
Made the Pro Bowl,
made the All-Star game.
He was sensational.
Let's see who else would I like,
barring injury.
You know what?
I would like to see
Peter Warwick's entire career
healthy.
I would like to see Peter...
David Pollock.
Remember David Pollock?
Yeah.
David Pollock was with us.
He was a first-round pick with us.
Petey Hardaway.
Nick Andrew, early in his career.
Oh, that's right.
Penny did get hurt.
D. Rose.
I forgot.
Yo, D. Rose, when he was healthy?
Holy shit.
Another guy probably before your time,
but he had a good career career but he was gonna be special
bill walton who bill walton who that had he not had those man bill was like man he was bill was
in was an mvp what what hit knees or you know big guys bad you know them feet some lower
knees and feet right yeah ah Yep. Ah, shit.
I mean, he went to the Hall of Fame, but he was, you know,
obviously he was sensational.
One of the first true passing big mans.
Right.
Could really pass the basketball.
Obviously played with Coach Wooden out here right down the street
for me and Westwood.
But, yeah.
Brandon Roy, Penny Hardaway.
Trying to think of who.
Hell.
Gilbert.
Gilbert Arenas.
That knee, man.
Knees.
Gil talked about that. My brother,
I mean, his last year,
he had 18 touchdowns.
94 catches, 18 touchdowns, and never played
another game.
Damn.
Damn.
That neck ain you want more chance

Gale Sayers

you know
they just split
the whole knee open
it ain't
it ain't a small surgery
man they had that big zipper on your knee.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
For real?
TD, you know, TD was a big game guy, man.
I mean, yeah, he was never the same after that.
He had a couple of good games, but he wasn't the same.
He wasn't the same.
No. He wasn't the same. Lam. He had a couple of good games, but he wasn't the same. He wasn't the same. Nope.
You want to say Lamar?
Like I said, Chad, I'm still upset from you,
from you guaranteeing the win versus the chiefs.
Well, when we were undefeated.
Oh yeah.
Remember that?
That nine in no year.
And I know, I think that was 2003.
Hey, they had that human joystick.
That boy was special.
Dante. Oh yeah. Yeah. I ain't care. hey they had that human joystick that boy was special man Dante oh yeah
I ain't care
we finna win
if y'all were playing today which quarterback
in team's offense would you rather play in
for the Sunday's game Lamar
or Patrick
I'd rather be a part of
hey it don't matter
either one I'm going to be open
either one I'm going to be open I know that
I'm going to go ahead and
I'm going with Patrick
I'm going with Andy Reid
because I know the West Coast system
and I know what that offense is
for a tight end.
You see Kelsey's number?
Kelsey's number. Kelsey is
seven catches away from having the most
catches and the most touch
and what?
He and Patrick Holmes already have
the most touchdown between a duo.
He's seven catches away from passing Jerry.
Right.
Yeah. That's crazy. That's crazy i i like that that's
dope yeah that's that's a great feat i just like i just i would love to just play with lamar because
i i'd be the one he called to play in the huddle you know i used to do this with carson carson
would call to play in the huddle and before i break the huddle to let him know i want the ball
i tap his hip oh yeah like you know you break the huddle break to let him know I want the ball, I tap his hip.
Oh, yeah.
Like, you know, you break the huddle, break, and I get one tap before I walk out,
and when I get to the line of scrimmage and he doing out the call, you know,
you point to the mic and you doing whatever you need to do,
and based on the defense, and I'm talking about when I really want the ball,
I don't care what they plan. Two man,
55 cover, two quarters, it
don't matter. The first thing I do really loud,
we could be in a stadium, a screaming
stadium with 80,000. You could
hear my special call. I go
yeah, just real
loud just to let them know that's the
second time. I'm going to tap your hip and
when I get to the line of scrimmage, while you're doing
your points and whatever you need to do with the O-line, all you're going to hear is, yeah.
Just to let you know, all right, there's a second one.
Let's go now.
I got you right here.
Come hell or high water.
I don't care what the coverage is.
I don't care whether they're playing there in my face or whether they're off.
I don't care if they're playing me like the goddamn corner.
Give you that Megatron treatment.
Yeah, man. Let me get this ball. I got you. don't care if they playing me like the goddamn give you that megatron let me yeah let me yeah
man let me get this ball i got you and every time i guarantee if we did that i i didn't do it all
the time i wasn't greedy i could just see me doing that to lamar my uncle i don't care what the play
is i don't care about no rpo man forget the fake i'm gonna tap your hip and i'm hitting that when
i hit you that's how i tap John. I was always,
cause he was,
we were right.
We would like right across from each other.
And I was all,
I would always tell him,
we break the huddle.
Give me a look T and he'd be like,
he'd be like,
he'd like to you block it.
I like,
I know,
but if you're in trouble,
I'll leak out for you.
Yeah.
Right.
Right.
Right.
Right.
I know.
Yeah. That would, I never wanted to do. And, and you, you right, right. I know. Yeah.
What I never wanted to do.
And, and you, you know, you can attest to this.
You never want to say nothing to the quarterback because they already got enough to worry about.
Yep.
Calling the plays, making the calls at the line of scrimmage.
So mine was, I'd never talk.
I'd never talk to Carson.
I'd tap his hip just to, just to put it in his mind.
And then when I'm on the outside, while he's doing his
calls and he hears that yee yee,
all right, you already know what time it is.
You already know I'm here for you. I don't care what's
going on. I don't care if somebody's coming off the edge.
You got a little leakage, just know
I'm like bird control.
I'm like life insurance.
You only 99% sure. You only 99%
don't you? You only 99%.
It be flip up. I got you. Listen.
99. You got good swimmers. You got the good swimmers.
They're going to get there. Listen.
That slip up is
Revis. That's what I'm doing.
99.9% sure. That
.1 or whatever,
that's Revis. Now, I can live with that because that's one of the
best several. Man, Ocho, I was in a game
one time. I came
back to the hall and I in i was uh came back to
the hall i said come on t man give me the ball i was open he's like i told him i said come on

I'm like, oh, damn.
I came back.
I came back like three, four plays later.
I said, A.T., you know that play I told y'all was open?

Yeah, nah.
Hey.
Hey.
Listen.
Hey, I told you.
I think I told you
earlier that time.
I was opening Carson
over through me
a little bit.
And we just talked about Diggs.
You know, when Diggs
throw his arms up a little bit.
Man, I remember
I did that one time.
I snapped.
I snapped my goddamn chin strap going back to the huddle.
Man, shit.
I ain't never seen Carson act like that.
Man, if you ever motherfucking show me up on goddamn TV like that again,
I won't throw you another fucking ball this game.
But I look, I'm...
But I look, I say, oh, shit.
I ain't never... That's out of character might even know that's out of character for him that's out of character for him but i had to understand that we playing monday it might have been sunday
night right the camera's on me the camera's on me and the camera's on him so when when you miss
something like that they're going to take that and run with it they're going to take that and
make something out of nothing so my mannerisms couldn't be like that and he understood it at the time at the time i didn't
understand i didn't know but then i got it he explained it to me after the game and then i got
a better answer okay okay you know what you're right you're right my emotions got the best of
me and i really really wanted that ball not not just for you yeah but for me as well yeah that's
a short story.
I never did it again, though.
Oh, never.
Guys would do that.
A lot of young guys, they used to do that.
They was the guy in college, and they would do that.
And you're like, hey, T, you better
let them know. I said, hey, bro,
don't do that. Don't do that.
We had a guy, we was in practice.
And he had came, he was a free agent.
He had came over.
And John threw him a stick.
He was a tight end.
John threw him a stick.
And, you know, it was like, he just had to bend like this.
He had to bend just to look.
Get up so I can show you.
And so, you know, he had to bend like this here.
Yeah.
No, just on him. Because he was on the right side. So John threw it, he had to be like this here. Yeah.
No, just on him.
Because he was on the right side.
So, John Thornton, he had to do like that.
Right.
On the back here.
He looked back at Selma, said, put that one on me.
I said, oh, my God.
Man, I went and grabbed.

Oh, hell no.
Don't come in here with that crazy shit.
I don't know where you came from.
When they say that to the quarterback.
But you can't say that to that quarterback.
Hell, I wouldn't even say that.
No, sir.
Man, dudes.
Hey.
Dudes kept the ball to me one time.
I said, my bad, John.
I should have gotten up that break quicker.
Hey, I take the blame for everything, Ocho.

I got to get my head around quicker.
He done said that over my head.
Hey, cuz, I got to get that.
That's me.
That's on me.
I said, oh, man.

Laney Ray asked, Ocho, did you hear Shannon say last night about taking all his clothes off before going number two?
Ocho, did you ever pee in a bag on the sidelines like Shannon?
We need to know if you did that too.
No.
Right behind the cooler.
Right behind the cooler.
I ain't got time to run all the way to the bathroom.
The two cleaners get two towels.
One on the east, one on the west.
And you got the cooler blocking everything for the north.
Yeah, we peed in the bag.
Yeah, see?
Yeah, right there. You see that lady?
I told y'all.
That's everybody. Everybody do that.
That's not the egregious one?
Oh, she's asking.
I said
last night, when I
go to the bathroom and I go number two,
I take off all my clothes.
Yes, sir.
All of them.
All the clothes?
Boy, that's like a little infant.
Little infants do that.
Little French fly do that.
She go to the party.
She say, girl, what you take off everything for?
What you do?
No, Uncle, you have your own type of way of using the bathroom,
but I'm just understanding the etiquette.
The etiquette of...
Maybe you want to be comfortable.
Maybe you want to be comfortable.
But I just know if one of the kids...
Why they walking in front?
First of all, don't nobody know.
Don't nobody know where I'm going.
I'm gone.
I just...
Yeah, ain't nobody walking in on me.
Okay, okay, okay.
Everybody different.
Whatever makes you comfortable.
Everybody different. Everybody has you comfortable. Everybody different.
Yeah, I'll be wild.
Everybody has a different approach to it.
But I...
Man, I'm like,
I'm wild.
I'm like a linebacker.
Oh, I read it.
Right, right, right.
Right.
Nah, I need,
I need my shorts and my ankles, man.
I need my shorts and my ankles, man.
Just in case.
You never know.
Fire might break out.
The emergency might happen.
The phone might ring. But I'm a white first, out. I grab him and come and follow my ring.
But I'm a white first, though.
Listen, the phone ring, you know, you take that, you got a bunny hop to the phone.
I ain't answering no phone. I ain't answering no phone.
Man, I just called you. Bro, I was in the bathroom.
Ain't nobody answering no bathroom. I don't answer no phone.
I don't answer no phone. I don't answer the phone when I'm in the bathroom.
If I'm doing that, I can't miss that.
No, I ain't answering no phone.
Man, why didn't you just answer the phone? God, I ain't going to talk to you on the phone when I'm in the bathroom. I can't miss that. Man, why didn't you just answer the phone?
God, I ain't going to talk to you on the phone when I'm in the
bathroom. God damn.
What was so important?
What you had to tell me?
I'm not missing that phone call.
You never know who's calling.
He or she will call back.
When I was in high school,
when I was in high school
and you waiting on that one specific call from her, it just so happened. It maybe happened once when I was in high school, when I was in high school and you waiting on that one specific call from her,
it just so happened,
it maybe happened once
when I was an adolescent,
maybe once.
And you got,
I just remember bunny hopping,
shorts,
pants down at the ankle
and trying to get to that phone
because I know
after three rings,
hell, she might not,
she might not.
And there's no way to call,
there's no way to call it back
20 years i couldn't get to the bathroom anyway because i was in the woods and we had no phone
out there so it was just out of gas so i just i just learned okay yeah you call it my grandma
said hey they'll call back yeah so yeah and that's and that's what i'm saying when you go to the woods
you can't put your ankle you can can't pull, well, I could.
So I take off all my clothes, I put them in a pile in front of me, and I go.
So when I got to go to a bathroom, I did the same thing.
Yeah, oh, the fact that you can go, you can get stark naked out there.
The only time you're wearing a thing around his ankle, you know your boy might need to be in a herd.
Somebody might come home. That's a whole different ballgame, Ocho. They call your boy wear the same ride as ankle, you know your boy might need to be in a herd. Somebody might come home.
That's a whole different ball game,
Ocho.
They call your boy quick change.
Okay, okay, okay.
Because it wasn't two seconds.
I've been put...
I've been on the couch.
I've been fully dressed.
I done got shirt off.
I got pants around my ankle.
Somebody walk in,
I'm fully dressed,
watching TV.
Yeah.
Or they call your boy quick change.
Quick change.
Yeah, man.
Quick change. I like that.
Oh, I like that.
Because, you know, don't love it.
Hey, you know, nature, right?
But don't let the deflation like when somebody come home.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah. I mean, you wait.
That's the worst feeling.
That's the worst feeling.
Out of there.
Out of there. Out of there.
Yeah, man.
Bring it right on down now.
Hey, Ocho, they already know.
What y'all doing, nothing?
Somebody walking out?
Hey, what?
We ain't doing nothing.
Hey, nobody ask you what you doing.
You doing something?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You tell it on yourself.
Hey, ain't nothing like that, Ocho.
Oh.
What happened?
Uh-oh.
I'm sorry, Real.
I told Ocho to calm down.
Hey, Real, I be telling him he be going,

Hey, Real.
Ocho, you be too loud, Ocho.
I be told you to calm down.
I'm trying to laugh too, but...
Oh, she was asleep.
Oh, I'm sorry, Rell. Yeah.
Faye said, hey, Shannon, Ocho, my brothers
roast each other so viciously, I question
their love for one another. If you and Ocho
had a roast battle on Nightcap versus
Coach Prime, who would win? FYI,
you got La'Ash roasting people
now, too. We blame you, Shanna.
I would win. A roasting battle?
That's me.
Put a poll up.
Put a poll up.
Put a poll up.
Listen, you ain't going to out-roast me.
If there was a roast battle, we used to have
roast battles on Twitter.
A chat.
If you in the chat, I'm not sure how long you've been following me.
Me and the city of New Orleans, the entire city of New Orleans that's on Twitter.
We used to have roast battles back in the day.
We used to be ribbing each other back in the day for hours at a time.
This is when social media, you know, the area wasn't as sensitive as it is now.
Now you say the wrong thing, you get suspended.
Those were some of the best times on Twitter.
Me and Marlon Wayne used to go at it.
Me and Kevin Hart used to go at it.
Me and Lil Duvall used to go at it.
Like if you can, you know how people pull up old tweets and always talk about, was this you based on something you said a long time ago?
People, if you're in the chat, you can go back and look at some of the old tweets
from me and Kevin Hart, Lil Duval, Marlon Wayans.
Ocho, you can't.
Ocho, you can't.
Ocho, not with no roasting.
Not no roasting, Ocho.
Not no roasting.
Not with.
I'm talking about y'all coming.
When it comes to Joni, I'm talking about just straight.
Yeah, ribbon.
Ribbon.

Hey, Ocho, you right running. I'm going to say, Ocho, when you come with that right running, I'm going to give you that. No. Not with that Ocho. Ocho, you right running.
Ocho, when you come in that route running, I'm going to give you that.
No, no, no, no.

But when it comes to Jonin.
No.
Ain't nobody finna see me Jonin.
Ain't nobody finna see me Jonin.
You not finna beat me.

Listen.
Hey, you throw out some tweets, they already know how I hit them.
Hey, I make them delete your tweets.

Jumbo W-R-A, okay.
Fake just because I'm on TV with a suit and tie on.
Hey, I tell them I got a thousand jokes.
I'm on number seven.
I got more number seven now.
I'm the same way, though.
I'm a jokester.
I'm a clown.
Just look at the personality.
Well, you know what I mean?
You're damned the same, especially when we're playing.
You're the same way.
So it's really, I don't know.
It depends.
To me, I think it's all on preference.
Who would run a Rose Battle?
I got them jokes now.
Up at 58%, prime at 24%.
You in third place at 18%.
You know what?
It's because it's Ocho.
It's Ocho.
It's Ocho.
Who name you say it first?
Which sound better, Ocho or Ocho and O?
I mean, in the alphabet, what come first?
O, what are you?
O, O come in alphabet? What come first? Oh, what are you? Oh, I'll come first.
Nah, I'm talking about the first letter.
What come first in alphabet?
Oh, what are you?
Now, rightfully so.
Yeah.
Uncle Ocho do sound better though.
They do sound better.
That's why they picking you first.
But they know they're the way you're not funny to me.
Ocho, when it come to Ocho, I went to an HBCU.
Ocho,

Joe just to survive.
I'm talking about that Joaning.
You had to tell. You had to rank.
You had to be able to keep
people up off of you. Not with these.
Not with Joni.
You might be beating a lot of
fans, but when it comes to lip sparring,
I'm
500-0 when it comes to lip sparring.
Nah,

You don't want to do that.

And then, you know, Ocho,
I used to roast. The way I look
at it, if you grin, you end.
So if you laugh, somebody

If you grin, you end.
I'm going to get them next.

But you know there's an addictive tendency in my family.
How do you support a disciplined lifestyle?
I know that about me.
I got an addictive personality.
I have to be careful in what I engaged in because I got an addictive personality.
I go 1,000%.
You see how I am with work, Coach O?
I was that same way with my football
career. It was football 1,000%.
I remember
I went back to Denver.
This was when Peyton was there.
I remember talking to
our athletic trainer.
I called him Greek. His name is Steve Antonopoulos.
He said, Sharpie, they called me Sharpie.
He said, Sharpie, he said, I thought you and Seven,
that's what we call John, call him Seven.
He said, but that 18 rival, y'all, when it comes to discipline
and work ethic when it comes to football.
18 rival y'all when it comes to discipline and work ethic when it
comes to football
the mere fact that he put me in
that same category as a Peyton
Manning tells you
he was the Broncos he's the Broncos athletic
trainer for over 40 years and so he
saw a lot of players come and go and the
mere fact that he mentioned me with
18 and 7
told you what I was a single man
ask see the thing is when I try to tell people people think I'm just tooting my own horn 18 and seven told you what I was a single man.
See,
Ocho,
the thing is,
when I try to tell people,
people think I'm just to my own horn.
Go.
I tell you what,
ask the guys in Denver.

Hey, bro, that's your
mama? Nah.
You're talking to your mom? Okay.
But no, you're not fit to talk
to no girl.

I wasn't as bad as I was because I'm a new guy in Baltimore.
I'm trying to show the guys what it takes.
And that's what I like I told I was telling
Ray earlier in his career I said you have to
understand I said
at some point in time

So, obviously, when it was over, I came down and told him.
I said, Al, I don't know what Mike's going to do.
But I told him to bench your ass.
Man, that's fucked. That's fucked up.
I don't care nothing about that.
I said, but what I need you to understand,
one day Shannon ain't going to be here.
And I'm not going to be the leader. You are.
And then what?
When you see them guys bull-jobbing
around and you're going to get mad
because you're losing games, you're going to be
mad. And when they're showing up late
and they're not taking walkthrough
series and they not taking practice series you're gonna get mad and all they're gonna say al we saw
you do it then what are you gonna say now what you're mad about because they saw you do that
