The Buccaneers waived Desmond Watson, the former Gator rookie, listed at 449 pounds with the Bucs.

He weighed 464 at the school's pro day and lost 25 to 30 pounds before the draft, but he didn't get a chance to practice with the team because he didn't lose enough weight.

He spent training camp on the non-football injury list.

Are the Bucs giving up with Big Dez too soon, OJo?

You know, I don't know what's going on with that situation, but obviously, you drafted a player in hopes that he can contribute to your offense.

I thought he would contribute to the offense.

I would have loved to see Big Dez Watson sitting there next to Vita Vea in that

goddamn A-gap.

You know,

I'm just being honest, you know, being stuff in the run game,

being able to help that defense.

Obviously,

I'm not sure what happened.

Why would you draft a player like that and then think he's going to lose the amount of weight that you want him to lose in such a short amount of time that you have there, especially coming in the training camp.

I would have liked for him to allow him to play and see how he plays at the size he's at now.

But I think also the NFL and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers also were protecting themselves.

They were protecting themselves.

But he played at that size at Florida.

He played at that size at Florida.

So I understand what you guys are trying to do for safety reasons, but it's how he played in Florida.

So why draft him if you're not going to allow him to play play the game of football?

Why not let him finish out his childhood dream?

Why didn't even put him through the ringer like that?

It confuses me.

I'm hoping they bring him back.

There's a chance they might bring him back.

I don't know.

I don't know how that works.

But bringing him back, allowing him to continue, continue to try to find ways to lose weight.

Hopefully, I'm hoping.

He's a big fella.

He's always been big.

He's played for a very long time.

So, why do you get to the NFL and you know what you got before you got it?

And then you get him there.

And then you want him to, you know, like

he can't lose no weight doing what he's doing.

Yeah.

They got the man walking the field.

That's not going to do nothing.

They got the man moving the dummies and stuff like that.

He might need to get on that Serena, get that Roe GLP.

Serena, who, huh?

That, that, that, hey, he might have to take the shot, Ocho.

But then you take it, then you take away from what the his power he's ocho he's six foot five yeah big boy that is a big ocho i don't care he's not gonna he only gonna get so small

through diet and exercise

he's i mean six five how small he not gonna be you're not gonna get him to 350.

Because if you get him to 350, he can't play football because you're taking all his strength away.

If he's, hold on.

If he's, how much Vita Veya weigh, huh?

Vita Vey, probably 350.

So he, but he's 365.

Desney Watson, what, 365?

450.

Oh, shit.

Yes.

He was 500 when he got to Florida.

They got to what they got him down.

He was 464 at his pro day.

He's 449 right now.

Damn.

So he's 450 pounds, Ocho.

Okay.

You're only going to lose so much weight.

Can he get the 350, though?

At 6.50?

You get 350?

No.

yeah, but he don't want the way that he would have to get the 350, he don't want either one of them.

What Ozempic, or you can't do that, huh?

Is that illegal?

That's not illegal.

That's not legal for NFL players.

Is it?

I mean, take Ozempic and then hit the weight room and

turn the fat into muscle.

Is that possible?

Exempt it eats your muscle.

Ah,

that's why they look like that.

God, man, I don't like that, man.

That's what, and it doesn't, and it's not coming back.

Once you strip that muscle, you use those drugs, Ozempic,

what do they call them?

What is Ozempic, Majoro,

Trizepatide?

I guess that's the name, but that muscle is not coming back.

Once you strip that muscle away, it ain't coming back.

Man, that bothers me, though, huh?

That bothers me.

Like, i'm like almost almost the tears like this is my brother or something you know like how you because he seems so happy we had him on ojo he seemed so happy like man i'll do whatever it takes you know whatever they want me to get down to ocho he only gonna get down so small he's six foot five he is not i could see ocho if he was six foot 450 he's a ginormous man yeah

I don't get it.

Why did you draft him?

What did you think was going to happen?

A goddamn mini, a miracle?

A miracle in that short amount of time from April to drafting him now before the season?

How much weight did you expect him to lose in such a short amount of time, especially if you're not allowing him to play?

If you're on the field practicing, you're going to lose weight running and doing some of the things that include football activities.

I mean, man,

I hope they bring you back.

I hope they bring her back.

I hope they bring her back and put him on some type of program to continue helping him lose weight to where the Tampa Bay Buccaneers see fit to allow him to get on the field and be a contributing help.

Man, it's just, I don't know, I don't know.

Like I said, I don't know.

That'll be something that his team doctor or the NFL medical staff, whether or not you can take those type of drugs, those empics, the Majorano, the Trizepatide, something of that nature.

I don't know if you can or can't.

But look at the people that's on those drugs.

Look at the women and look at the men and look at their musculature.

Look at their muscle tone.

If you don't think it strips the muscle, go look and see.

And once you strip that muscle too, it ain't no way to build that back up, huh?

No.

Go look at people that's on those drugs.

You can tell.

You can tell.

There is no um.

There is no texture to the muscle.

It's kind of like, oh, Joe, you know, as we age, a lot of people, as you age, you lose,

not only do you lose elasticity, but you lose that texture.

It's like sometimes, like, when people

eat vegan, when they become vegan or vegetarian,

that animal protein is what gives you that.

Yeah.

You take those shots, look at people, look at those celebrities, or look at the women, look at the men that take those shots.

And you tell me, do you believe an NFL player can take those shots and be competitive on the football field?

Man, that's.

It curbs your appetite.

Okay, if it curbs your appetite, you're not hungry.

How do you build muscle?

How do you build muscle if you have no appetite?

Go ask the bodybuilders, how do you grow?

People talk about

Elephant.

He only eats grass.

Yeah, but he eats 300 pounds of it.

Elephant, I mean, a whale, it eats so much krill.

Yes, yeah, I don't, I get it.

So, if you're not eating, I want you guys in the chat to tell me how do you build muscle if you're not eating, if you have no appetite.

And if you force yourself to eat, it makes you nauseous.

If you overeat, it makes you nauseous.

He's a big man.

He's a giant.

I think Gibson might have been the largest guy, the offensive lineman that played at Detroit.

He might have been the largest man.

He's the largest man that I've ever seen in the NFL.

I think he's like 380.

So he's 70 pounds heavier than the heaviest guy that's ever played in the NFL.

Gilbert Brown.

Gilbert wasn't big as Gibson.

What's Aaron Gibson?

I think he's from the University of Wisconsin.

They got me sound like a Wisconsinite.

Wisconsin.

How big was Gibson?

Helly bigger than Fridge.

100 pounds bigger than Fridge.

Man, the Friez was big too, boy.

Yes.

Aaron Gibson was 375.

So he's 75 pounds heavier than the heaviest man that's ever played in the NFL.

Now,

and Gibson was 6'6.

So he's an inch shorter, but almost 80 pounds heavier.

Hey, they got to be a weight up, huh?

They got to be a weight.

Technology is.

But here's the thing, Ocho.

What is the weight that you can get him down to?

I don't know.

Me and, Ocho, you do realize men 400, unless they're sumo wrestlers.

Sumo wrestlers.

Conor Hanna, Akey Bono.

But what are they doing, Ocho?

They three, four seconds, and it's over.

That's it, yeah.

Well, well, hell, shoot.

D-tackle, three, four seconds of play, and it's over.

How many plays is he going to be able to give you, though?

Oh, that's that sucks.

That sucks.

You knew, you knew, you knew, you knew,

you knew it was a project.

Similar to Anthony.

Anthony Richardson's situation with the Colts.

I agree, Ocho.

You understood what you were getting from him at Florida.

You watched film.

You gave him a chance.

You gave him in.

You brought him in.

You gave him an opportunity.

But you're giving up on the project too soon.

I trust, I trust that Buccaneers organization is going to bring him back and do right by Young Bull.

I guarantee you.

I can feel it.

I can feel it.

They're going to do right by him.

They're going to bring him back.

For all you people, I just Google.

Yes, Ozimpic, semaglutide can lead to muscle loss as a side effect of significant weight loss.

So all you

Shannon, calm down, because everybody thinks they're a doctor.

See, the thing is with me, Ocho, before I really talk about stuff, I like to read it.

Right, right, right.

You know what I'm talking about?

The semaglutide, the Majorino, the trizepatide.

You know your stuff now.

Ocho, in order for you to lose weight, that's the thing.

Bodybuilders, what do they do?

They get really big.

Yeah, I do.

I do.

And then they strip it down, but they have to lose some muscle.

That's why you try to add as much muscle as you possibly can.

So when you strip it down, there's still enough there and people can see it.

Yeah.

But y'all want to be so right.

Shanna, you don't know.

No, I don't know everything.

But what I talk about, I like to research about to have a general understanding.

I've talked to a lot of people about these drugs and the side effects of these drugs.

to ask a man that's been he he's like i've been big all my life

oh cho

he probably was he probably was a 10 11 12 pound 13 pound baby damn

so with that being said you're asking a man okay he was at one point in time oh joe he was 500 pounds

500

Let's just say for the sake of argument, you get him all the way down to 300.

Okay, now we're talking.

but you're taking away what what made him who he was that strength

damn man

some some got to give

some got to give and i i hope

i was saying i was sad too and i know i normally i try to stay i try to stay out of my emotions when it comes to guys and try not to get detached but i like the dude i mean i i could see i could see when he we had him on ocho he was so excited.

He was so excited, man.

I go, I'm gonna get an opportunity to live out my dream to play in the NFL.

I say, well, so what, what, what did they told me?

They said they hadn't told me to wait, but I'll do whatever they asked me to do.

And I believe he did.

But at some point in time, Ocho, when you that size, you have to eat a certain amount of food just to be able to fuck.

Yeah, yeah,

yeah.

He got to breathe.

He got to get up.

He got to, he got to be alert.

So you have to eat a certain amount of calories.

damn man

theoretically you're supposed to be able to eat 10 10 uh what is it

10 calories per body pound

and be functioning and so me i can eat 2 500 calories and if i don't do a whole lot

that's i can function now just think if i were to do cardio i do 30 minutes i do hour hour cardio i'm gonna have to increase that or i'm going to lose weight.

So if he could eat 10 calves per body pound, Ocho, he could eat on 4,000 calories.

Do you know what 4,000 calories do to the average man?

First of all, if you're eating nutritious, you couldn't eat it all.

You'd have to eat around the clock.

Now, see, I'm not telling what somebody told you.

You're talking to somebody that's actually eating around the clock.

That set his alarm that when I go to bed in two and a half hours, I'm going to wake my black ass up and go in the kitchen and eat.

And guess what, Ocho?

After I eat, I'm going to go back to bed and I'm going going to sit it again for another two and a half to three hours and get my black ass up again and go.

Okay, we on the same, we on the same type of regimen.

You eat that much to eat that amount of, see, now if you eating burgers and you eating fried food like that, it ain't nothing to get no calories, you get to get 3,000, 4,000 calories.

But when you eating chicken, turkey, ground beef, lean cuts, you getting broccoli, you getting carrots, you getting rice, it is a beat.

To eat that amount of food.

I'm not telling you what somebody told me.

I'm telling you what I know.

I'm talking about from first-hand experience.

When Ocho and I talk to you about football-related stuff, we're not talking second-hand stuff, we're not talking about what somebody told us, we're talking about what we tell you, what we know, what we lived.

So, now I know everybody, everybody on the internet now, they're a coach, they're a general manager, they're a professional athlete, they're a lawyer, they're a banker, they were something

whatever you were, that's what you were.

But I'm telling you,

what this medicine and the people that I've talked to, and I know people that have taken it, and their bodies are not the same.

Now you're asking a man that's 450 pounds.

I feel bad.

And I don't normally feel bad because, Ocho, it's not, it's, it,

and I hate using the term fair because everybody dream is not going to come, the gift that they want to give to themselves is not going to become a reality.

It's not going to come to fruition.

But it was something about him

that made me like, damn, I sure hope this kid can get his weight down.

I was thinking if he got it down under 430,

but Ocho,

do you understand?

Like, it don't take much to lose.

I mean, because a lot of it's waterways.

Once you get past that initial water bait, and probably he got like 30, because that's why it was easy for him to go from 500 to 4.

I think he played 470, and then he waved the combine at his pro day at 464, and now he's 449.

Now you got to get to the nuts and bolts of it.

That's a B.

That's a B.

Damn, man.

I mean, you would literally, I mean,

you literally have to starve him.

You literally have to starve him, Ocho.

And he couldn't play.

Couldn't.

I'm optimistic.

I think they're going to bring him back, huh?

I'm not saying they won't.

Normally, I like to see guys get to at least the last cut.

Because

they're more apt to bring him, you know what I'm saying, Ocho.

And he made it to the last cut.

But the thing is, Ocho, he didn't play in any games.

But,

and this is why i agree with you it's like bro you know he was a project you know he was huge what made you think you're gonna be how much what you thought you was gonna be normally when people lose 100 pounds it takes them a year or 50 pounds or 75 pounds it takes them a year not no damn six weeks

i mean you lose you lose you lose uh uh uh 50 60 70 pounds in six weeks you either on crack or you got aids

i i'm sorry but i'm just i'm not trying to be funny guys but i'm just saying to lose that kind of weight in that amount of time, there's something seriously wrong.

And there's nothing wrong with him.

He's just a big man.

Other than that, there's nothing wrong with him, Ocho.

He's a big man.

And we understand the risk of somebody his size in the sun in Tampa.

We understand that, Ocho.

It's hot, boy.

Yes.

I'm glad now because back when you and I was growing up, they had his ass out there running gases

and suicides.

Oh, they're going to get that weight up off of him.

They're going to get it up off of him.

But now, obviously, the NFL protecting themselves after being sued a few times.

The Tampa Bea Buccaneers, obviously protecting themselves

as well, not wanting any issue.

No, you don't want that.

You don't want that, Ojo.

But I just don't know in the amount of time that they gave him, how much weight did they think he was going to lose?

That's my only thing.

I appreciate them giving him the opportunity.

But how much weight a man his size, and let's say they went to camp in the middle of July, and here we are damn near at the end of August.

So let's just say five weeks.

How much weight did you?

He lost 15 pounds.

I think that's good.

It is.

Hell, normally they say if you can lose a pound, what is a pound a week, Jordan?

I think you lose a pound a week.

That's great.

He lost three pounds a week.

He'd be back.

Yeah.

He'd be back.

But

ocho he has to eat so much to just to live yeah

you gotta find he has to drink a certain amount of water just to live

he's not he's not a normal man he's not a normal man that's walking around 200 pounds 185 pounds or whatever you whatever the size of normal man is he's twice the size of an average man

You got to find that happy medium.

You got to get.

Yes.

But okay, what's the medium i don't know yeah so because in order to get the weight off you got to do a certain a certain level of exercise

you got to do a certain level of weight training

and you have to eat obviously you have to be on a caloric deficit so if it's 10 calories per body pounds theoretically he could eat 4 600 pounds well obviously you got to keep him way up under that but you got to gradually back him down you can't say okay you can't eat but 3 000 calories

and i i think you'll be able to do it you'll be able to do do it because he wants his bad.

He wants his bad.

Well,

you're going to have to give him a year.

Which is why I like the, which is why I think that I like the fact if he's there.

Because remember, Ocho, when they used to

suspend players

and they wouldn't let you come to the facility.

They wouldn't let you be around the players.

But what they found out, that drove them further and further away.

Now you forced them into even worse habits.

If they had a habit, they're not, can't be around their teammates.

Now they do more destructive things.

So in order for them to get him in the kind of shape that they want, they feel that he can help them.

They would literally need to have him around

or

says, okay, or send him to

the Duke Medical Clinic.

I think they have a weight loss center up there.

Send him somewhere and says, okay, son, we're going to give you a year.

You need to get the X number.

Whatever number is, but I'm saying that's the only way with Joe.

I think it's gonna happen, and I hope this, I hope this doesn't discourage him either.

I hope he sees this, you know, and some of the some of the stuff that we've been we've been we've been saying tonight.

And I please, brother Desmond, don't allow this to discourage you, but only make you stronger.

Give you a little bit of motivation, give you a little bit of motivation, you know.

Damn, man, it's crazy,

yeah.

He's a big L Joe, he's a big man,

big man.

I mean,

I mean,

I used to eat Ocho.

I used to eat a lot.

I can't eat like I used to.

No.

But I'm also damn near 60.

He's 23,

24.

Do you know how much you could eat when you were in your 20s?

Yeah.

Man, I take out a whole buffet.

You don't come here no more.

You said buffet.

You say $20.

I can eat as much as I want.

You eat up all the people.

It's oh, man.

That's tough.

Come on, Dez.

You can do it, bro.

You can do it.

How bad do you want to be on an NFL team?

How bad do you want to put that uniform on and go out there on that field and make a tackle?

I don't care, Dez.

I would love for you to have a long career.

But if you can just put that uniform on one time and go out there and have them call your name because you made a tackle.

Come on, Dance.

Nightcap, we're rooting for you.

Amari Cooper is returning to the Raiders, Ocho, on a one-year deal.

Cooper, 31, returns to the organization that drafted him with the fourth overall pick in 2015.

He's signing a one-year deal of $3.5 million.

The contract carries a six million dollar value with five million five hundred thousand per game roster bonus and two million available in incentives the new cooperative signing comes just hours after jacoby myers requested a trade out of uh out of las vegas after two sides were unable to negotiate a new contract oh yo you like coop going back to race absolutely you got to understand the connection that's down there that florida connection that's down there in las vegas right now you got geno smith miramar patriot quarterback.

You got Amari Cooper, superstar, legendary Dave County, Miami Northwestern with Teddy Bridgewater win, huh?

Teddy Bridgewater.

I mean, listen, legendary wire received from Miami Northwestern.

That Florida connection, they're going to do, they're going to work magic.

Obviously, you had Brock Bowers, who's going to probably get the bulk of the.

I think he went to IMG, didn't he?

With Brock Bowers?

Yeah.

He did.

I think he did.

Isn't he from Florida?

Yeah,

I don't know.

I don't know.

I know one thing.

Gino is going to get that ball that got cooped.

He's from Cali, Napa.

Oh.

He from Cali.

Okay, you heard me?

I say Geno Smith gonna get Coop that goddamn ball.

I know that.

Well, hell, if Jacoby Myers is unhappy at that play, he ain't got no choice.

It's either Coop or Brock Bauer.

Yeah, but

I think, you know, I understand.

Jacoby's frustration.

Frustration.

I totally get it.

But the way you value yourself

the way you see and value yourself the teams don't see you like that because you see as soon as the headlines hit about you want to trade you see how fast they made that call

you see how fast they made that call oh that's what you want to do okay bet

hold my bit oh

they already they already got about four or five receivers lying up because they say okay in case this goes sideways yeah

yeah and they bringing in a good one now.

They bring Cooper, who ain't no goddamn slouch.

Amari Cooper was at one time one of the better rock runners in the NFL.

I'm talking about top five.

I ain't talking about no slouch.

I'm talking about up there with Devontae up there with Devontae Adams with the Hunter Winters.

Oh, yeah.

Up there.

I'm what?

Well, he could put him up and put him down like no other now.

Man, man, I can't even believe, man.

Dude, been in the league for like 11 years.

Oh, Choo.

Yeah.

Coop.

oh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

a good a good 11 too I don't know why Jerry let him go

Jerry was tripping

I like this deal I like this deal for Coop I'm surprised that he was available this long maybe the asking price was a little higher than what teams wanted to play plus ocho you know when you get 30 man they be looking at you funny.

I don't care what type of number you put up, because I remember them having the same conversation about Devontae Adams.

Man, he done slowed, man, the man just had 100 damn catches.

But you know, he ain't breaking away like he once did.

Bro, stop it.

30 is not, 30 is, you're not over the heel.

But they've convinced, they've convinced, they have convinced themselves.

They've convinced their fan base.

that if once a guy reaches 30, unless he's a quarterback,

his best years are behind him.

Only the quarterback where they say his best years are in front of him once he reaches the age of 30.

Everybody else,

yeah, that's how they do young.

That's how they do you.

That is how they do you.

It's gonna be some nice magic over there in Vegas, though, bro.

I can see it now.

Touchdown Geno Smith to Amari Cooper for 72 yards.

Oh, yeah.

O-Dade County connection.

Texas running back Joe Mixon won't be activated from non-football injury list by Tuesday's deadline, making him ineligible to play at least the first four weeks of the season, Ocho, due to an ankle injury.

Mixon, who had an ankle injury, will be moved to the reserve non-football injury list.

Did he hurt the ankle in practice, or this was something coming off the offseason?

Yeah, that's a good question.

Did he have surgery?

Did he have surgery or no?

Or just he got hurt early in camp?

Must have got hurt in camp.

Wait, hey, listen, you know, they got brother Chubb over there too.

Now

they got brother Chubb over there too.

Now,

they're not going to miss a beat at the position.

They're not going to miss a beat at that position depending on how

much better Nick Chubb is feeling after reconstructive surgery of that knee.

Chubb gonna tote that thing.

Damn.

He said he hadn't practiced during training camp and he's been battling it this offseason.

Why didn't he have surgery?

Was it not?

Was it still from that hip drop tackle?

Because remember, OJ, he got hip drop tackle last year.

I don't know.

I don't know if it's from that, but Chubb,

Niggy Chubb, let's go, boy.

You got to carry the load.

I mean, I hear some reports say he doesn't look the same.

He ain't cutting.

He's not, the burst is not there.

Then others say he looks fine.

So I don't know what to say.

Hey.

Without us being there, Ocho, to see it for our own eyes, it's hard to know what's real and what's not.

Unless you're able to see it.

Because

they report any goddamn thing.

Yeah,

I definitely need to see for myself to get a, like, okay.

Well,

three years ago, Chubb, he'd have got through that.

He'd have got through that crack.

I mean, obviously, you're going to have some wear and tear.

I mean, you're a running back.

Absolutely.

I mean, maybe one of the best thing to happen to Saquon is that he got injured that year.

And

he was able not to have 300 hits on his damn body.

Today, Dak told repetitive.

told reporters that the team's offense will provide some fireworks and they've been saving their best stuff for the regular season.

An exciting offense.

We've kept it vanilla for a reason.

Excited about getting out there and putting it all on display next Thursday.

Ocho, are you expecting fireworks from

the Cowboys offense?

I told you that.

That's the only exciting thing to watch.

That is the only exciting thing to watch.

Come what, nine days from now, eight, seven days from now, whatever it may be.

I'm tuning in to see the Dallas Cowboys offense, mainly George Pickens.

They're going to put up numbers that can gonna put up numbers he's going to put up numbers through the air that's not the problem that's never been the problem the problem is on the other side of the ball

that's the problem and not only that you ain't got your best player on your team on it don't even want to pay him but if there's anything As a Cowboy fan, I know I have some of y'all in the chat.

If you're a football fan in general, even if you're not a fan of the Cowboys, hey, are you going to be tuned in Thursday Thursday night?

I want to see CeeDee Lamb and George Picken go crazy, you know, and then A.J.

Brown and Devontae Smith on the other side of the ball go crazy.

We already know what Saquon gonna do.

The goddamn Cowboys ain't got no defense.

He might go for goddamn 200.

Especially if Sticks ain't playing.

If Sticks ain't playing, ain't no telling Saquon might have 300 to open the season.

Well,

who's going to guard them receivers?

Because I don't know.

Is Diggs going to be able to start the season?

Well, that's a good question.

I'm not sure.

I'm not sure.

Damn, I'm not sure.

Because that offensive line, good luck.

Hey,

hey.

Dickerson, look, we don't know the extent of Dickerson.

He said he was going to try

Landon, was going to try to get back.

We don't know if he's going to make it all the way back.

But boy, them tackles, My Lotta and Lane Johnson, they ain't to be F with.

You better be on your best behavior.

It's going to take heaven and hell.

Hey, boy, hey,

Lane, come out there.

He's coming that thing.

Hey, it's going to take heaven and hell

trying to get Brian and Boyd.

Oh, yeah.

My lot of what, 6, 8, 3, 40?

Stupid.

Lane Johnson

is angular.

He's not a whole lot of bricks in his back pocket.

But boy, would that you kick out there?

He locked down.

And don't listen.

Don't let him get hands on you first.

Oh, yeah.

A Trayvon Digg doesn't feel he has any limitations after training on his own, pushing for week one return.

He did pass his physical, so hopefully they give him 500 bands back.

Give it, man.

We're talking about Jerry, man.

He don't care.

But I'm, hey, listen, that game is going to be exciting.

I'm just, I think about it.

Oh, it's going to do a crazy number.

It's going to do, I can see that game doing 30, 30, 35.

I mean, we're talking about a number.

I'm talking about the players, Keon Mitchell, CeeDee Lamb, Cooper DeJohn,

George Pickens.

I mean, oh, man,

it's going to be fireworks.

It's definitely going to be fireworks.

And I like the words that Dak had used.

You know, the fireworks are going to be, you know, offensively, I don't know if they're going to win the game.

Boy, look here.

Quarterbacks don't be saying nothing.

How many times we done heard Dak say this about this offense?

Well, offense, they always put up number nine.

yeah for the other team them pick sixes

we're gonna see

i see better than i hear we're gonna see because the eagles ain't no slouch and i i don't think fangio i don't think fangio gonna let that defense have a hangover talk about what they did to the super bowl and all that other stuff because that ain't got nothing to do that's not what we did in the super bowl ain't gonna help us win opening night and then guess what ojo We win opening night.

We got 10 days before we play another game.

Hey, I see you boys.

Hey, you know what?

Y'all take three days off.

Come on, man.

Georgia Tech DB Clayton Powell Lee has some interesting comments about

Coach Prime's team.

Let's take a listen to what he thinks.

Everybody says it's a different experience, but I've experienced some crazy stadiums since being here.

So just knowing that, not trying to over-hype it, honestly, like it's another game.

I know they bring out celebrities, they do all this crazy stuff, but we're playing football.

None of them playing.

They can hype you all they want to, but you on the field, not them.

Exactly.

Like, come on.

So, yeah, just playing fast, like, not dwelling on that type of stuff.

Like, that's all I can say.

I like it.

I like it.

So now

you're talking like that.

I'm tuned in

because I'm trying to see what you are.

I'm trying to see what type of time you're on.

If you really like that, young bull, you feel me?

I like that.

I like the bravado.

You know, oh, they have all type of celebrities and they got the whole hype train, but the people that's on the sideline ain't out there on the field and they really can't do nothing.

They can't help you.

I like it.

He talked.

And guess what?

We're going to be live Friday night.

after the game.

I can't.

I can't wait.

So guess what?

Come in and get your first actions of what happened in the game.

boy we're talking spicy huh

oh man i missed that i missed those days

But I think for me, Ocho, I miss college more than I miss the pros because of the intimacy of it.

Because Because the fans are like right there on, you know, those small black HBCUs, they write their own.

And, you know, they talking reckless.

The fans talking reckless.

Like, boy,

nothing.

Nothing today, sharp.

I'm leaving with more catches than I came with.

Yeah, yeah.

Yeah.

So what if you, what if you on offense?

Hey, listen,

we're going to let the other team go first.

We're going to let the other team let their band go first.

That only happens if you on the, if you're at home.

If you're on the road, you don't get to tell me, oh, y'all go first.

They're not going first.

They're going to let you go.

They're going to wait for me.

They're going to wait for me to get undressed.

Hey, uh, what that's hey, listen, I know I play a lot.

Uh, Jesus Christ, I wish I had my grades together coming out of high school because I would have been at fam.

There's a reason I had to go to Langston, uh, I couldn't even get into fam.

Langston was one of the few schools that actually accepted me with the badass grades I had growing up.

There's a reason, there's a reason, fam, you made me an ambassador because I've been showing love to the school since got 19 since 1992.

I just never had the opportunity to go there, but my love and passion for the school is still there because that's where I always wanted to be, you know.

So, just if I, if, if hypothetically speaking, if I can go back and had eligibility, oh man, please, I'm going to play F-Fan, man.

Man, I average 300 yards a game.

Right now?

But what you know now?

Yeah.

Ease.

With ease.

With ease.

Shit, I had, we played nine games.

I had three, 200, three, 200-yard games and nine games my senior year.

The U.S.

Open is here, and on my podcast, Good Game with Sarah Spain, I'm breaking down the players from rising stars to legends chasing history, the predictions, will we see a first-time winner, and the pressure?

Billie Jean King says pressure is a privilege, you know.

Plus the stories and events off the court, and of course, the honey deuces, the signature cocktail of the U.S.

Open.

The U.S.

Open has gotten to be a very fancy, wonderfully experiential sporting event.

I mean, listen, their whole aim is to be accessible and inclusive for all tennis fans, whether you play tennis or not.

Or the young Canadian Victoria Mboko making a name for herself?

If I see you with slides on campus, it's going to be a problem.

If I see you with a hoodie on in class or some headphones on in class, it's gonna be a problem.

If I see you sitting in the back of the classroom, it's gonna be a problem.

Do we understand that?

And if you're online and you have online classes and you don't have a shirt on or you got a white beat on or you have some stupid on that causes distraction or you walk around during that online session, it's gonna be a problem.

We good with that guys?

Now.

I love it.

I love it.

I love proof.

Because what he's talking about, hey, listen, what he's talking about, it has nothing to do with football.

It has nothing to do with the game of football.

You're going to have to conduct yourself like this in the real world.

Why not start now?

Why not start now?

If you don't make it to the NFL, whatever corporation, whatever entity you work for, you're not going to be able to go in there with no goddamn...

You ain't going to be wearing no slides.

You're not going to be wearing no hood.

You're not going to be in there at all.

I like it.

And if you're doing a Zoom meeting, man, I saw the late, oh, Joe, they had this lady.

She was in court.

She got a robe and a bonnet.

The judge said, we're going to pause this.

We're going to come back to you.

You come back when you got something.

She up there doing this.

She inside a robe scratching.

The judge said,

Ma'am,

is that a robe?

Are you scratching your?

I love this.

Yeah.

Because he's preparing these young men for life.

Now, in football, Ocho, guess what you can do in football?

You can go to the meeting with what?

Slides.

Guess what else you go with?

A hoodie.

Guess what on your headphones?

You can do all that.

But

everybody that's in that meeting room ain't going to be in an NFL meeting room where you can wear hoodies, where you can wear slides.

Wear your earphones.

Everything Prime is teaching them young fellas right now, it all come down to one thing.

Discipline.

Yep.

Discipline.

The one thing that's going to carry you in life forever, regardless of what you try to do, whether you make it to the NFL, whether it's the corporate world, or whatever respective craft you choose and are passionate about.

If you have discipline, you're going to succeed no matter what it is you decide to do.

Yeah.

Always.

Man.

Oh, Joe.

I ain't never wore sweats.

My brother used to come down there and say, man, this is how y'all go to class.

How much popcorn cost at the movies now?

Oh, that's a good question, huh?

If I was going to get like candy, candy, it'll probably be Reese's pieces.

Okay, okay.

I can live with that.

I can live with that.

But not no Twizzlers.

Twizzlers is nasty.

It's like eating candle wax.

There was the days, man.

I missed that.

I miss being able to go to the movies.

And, you know, I'm the only one in there because I would, you know, I'm the only one in there.

Powerball jackpot jumps to 750 million, the 10th largest ever.

The next drawing is Monday night.

That's the night.

Hey, you know what?

I probably won too.

You heard me?

Listen.

Damn, I need to tell my sister

in Atlanta because

they don't have the drawings out here.

Listen, I think I probably won.

I'm going to tell you what I'm going to do with my winnings.

I'm going to tell you what I'm going to do with my winnings.

What you going to do?

First, if you won $750 million.

How much is that if you take a lump sum in Florida?

Because it varies because California, you got to play state tax.

Some states have state tax.

So if you took a lump sum, $750 million in Florida.

I'm going to tell you what I'm going to do with with mine right now

how much it is it's probably four and some change watch

350.

nah it's 390 390.

okay boom that's perfect so boom let's say hypothetically speaking well i'm probably gonna win anyway so i didn't check my numbers yet but the first my first thing is I'm gonna be minority owner and player for Napoli, my favorite team in Italy, right?

Then I'm gonna buy into the Dolphins as well.

Minority, a huge stake in the Dolphins.

You're nothing about no huge stake?

In the Dolphins?

Yeah.

Owner, no?

How much?

What percentage?

The Dolphins are valued at about like 67 billion.

So 10% is 700 million.

I don't know.

So you must be going to talk about a minority.

You must be talking about a 2%.

That's fine.

That's fine.

Just so I can walk with it like I'm part of it.

And then

for those I have kids from, I'm going to give them a huge chunk, right?

Give them a huge chunk.

Those I have kids from, then they gone.

They grown.

Now, what about the ones that's grown?

Ooh, no, the moms, no, regardless,

they finna get them a nice huge chunk.

Then the kids, they finna come move with me.

I'm gonna move the kids with me.

Give the mothers a break.

Listen, y'all, boom, y'all done a hell of a job.

Y'all go out there and enjoy yourself.

Have you some fun?

Bing.

Me and the kids, we're gonna start a show.

The first thing I'm gonna do is I'm gonna get me and my financial people, make sure we all

then

got an endowment for Savannah State.

Then all the kids.

My brother, I'm going to go ahead and break him off.

Because

when it's time for me to go ahead and meet the maker, I don't want to have to give nothing away.

Everything is going to be already taken care of way before then.

So nobody ain't going to be griping about nothing, about this.

Everybody going to be done

got what they're gonna get.

Then I say, you know what, Ocho?

Ocho, we had a great run.

Leaving, but it's time, it's time for me to hand it off to you.

It's the Ocho and it's the Ocho and Joe Show.

Okay, okay, okay.

Just I got two days a week for you.

I'll let you pick the two days I'm old, but hey.

I too.

And then, like,

my responsibilities and my overhead, it's so small.

It's so small.

It's me, my kids, and those I have kids from.

And that's, that's it.

My immediate family,

Do we have $750 billion to give me $5,900?

Thank you.

Chad, y'all hear this man.

This man said, you know what?

When I win $750 billion, I'm going to pay you $5,900.

Well, damn.

Hell no.

That's the only thing I really hate about

being out here, Ocho Dick, you can't buy no lottery and no player, no powder, the stuff.

No, oh,

oh, oh, I know why, I know why, I know why.

Yeah,

damn.

Oh, that was good.

That was funny.

All right, Ocho, time flew by.

It's time for our final segment of the heat.

It's time for Q.

Tonight was good, boy.

God damn, that was good.

You know what's funny?

Hey, chat, watch.

I'm going to check the numbers because I played.

I don't really gamble or or play but i took a chance i'm telling you when i check these numbers tonight i guarantee i won that powerball watch watch i sure hope you won i'm telling you i'm telling you i'm telling you now

what ocho they posed somebody posed a great question nick marr says who gets paid first micah from jerry or unk from ocho

Micah, Micah gonna get paid for Unk.

As long as I owe you, just know you never go broke.

You never go broke.

As long as I owe you.

Ocho,

Jamal, the singer, said, oh Joe, when you get that money, send Marvin South $40,000 so he can let us out this church.

We still in here.

Hey, I forgot all about that.

That's a good one.

Yeah.

Oh, I forgot.

Yeah, my uncle.

I got an uncle that's a pastor.

So I'm going to

break the the church off.

Okay, okay.

Aaronois, Jalen Hurst is too low in the NFL top 100.

He should have been at least no lower than 12, in my opinion.

I didn't see it, so they had the top.

So, what are they?

It's just that they're the top four.

They're about

15.

So, you look at that Saquon,

Lamar,

28th, 19, and 22.

Jalen Erks, 19.

Oh.

Well, that's what his peers voted about.

I mean,

y'all say y'all want peers to vote.

The peers vote, then you say that's too low.

You say play when the media does it, the media don't know what they're talking about.

So I don't know.

Vin Hoffman, Tyreek is still best receiver in the NFL.

Revenge coming.

Yeah, I can see that.

As long as Tua stays upright.

As long as Tua stays upright, Tyreek is going to pick up exactly where he left off before Tua got hurt in the previous two seasons when Tua was healthy.

I can see that happen because Tyreek is not slowing down anytime soon.

English Bank says, I watch you consistently.

Deshaun's not playing.

like you sharp stradamas, but he's already running full speed and throwing.

Love y'all.

Keep rocking.

i still don't believe he's playing this year uh

I guess that's what he said.

Millard Hobmilt.

I'm trying to think.

Millard Hamilton.

That's That's his name.

Tyler Hamilton.

Tyler Hamilton.

Name doesn't sound familiar.

Joe X Black, Unc, to your point about eating to build muscle, my powerlifting coach Ben told me, you gotta

to get big.

You do.

That's how you grow.

Pat Dubbed, Unc, when you going to have Leo on nightcap.

Man, I don't even know, man, look.

I don't even know if Leo's still alive, man.

but i'm gonna you know what hey that story was funny as hell boy

i need to get high sea on here one of my teammates uh they were from the same hometown sandersville uh high sea um high sea would know where he's at where he's at maybe uh uh big daddy might uh a ford might know i'm gonna call i'm gonna call i'm gonna i'm gonna get in touch with him Leo ain't got no equipment.

I don't even know if he got a phone, but

I don't even know if he got a phone.

But I tell you what,

I'm gonna find him.

I'm gonna find him.

If he's alive and well, I'll find him.

Hurrah Kiffel.

Will you ever consider Ocho as a Hall of Famer?

Players gotten with less, check the numbers and put some respect on it.

I don't decide.

I ain't got no vote.

Okay, got no vote.

I decide.

That's why I put my own jacket on.

I decided.

I inducted myself.

One-on-one.

Deshaun Allen says, what's up, Uncle Ocho?

My question is, which game was it you realized it's time to hang the cleats up?

I was going to come back and play Year 15.

I was in some of the best, and I know people say this all the time, Ocho, but I was in phenomenal shape.

Um, I took a picture, um,

it's on my wall, but I was I'm talking about I was peeled.

I was

too,

I was gonna, I was gonna probably report to camp because, as a matter of fact,

they had camp, they started camp that Wednesday.

I did the photo shoot that Friday, so I was about 227, I was 227-ish.

I'm talking about, look here,

like a Clinton email, Waste disappeared.

Gone, Ocho.

So I was going to come back for year 15 until CBS asked me would I be interested in being on the panel around the desk.

And,

but

even in year 14, Ocho, what I started to notice,

I couldn't do it like I once could.

I could have that monster game,

but then the next two to three games is going to be so-so.

I just couldn't put it together back to back to back like I once could.

And I was like, damn.

I mean,

I felt fine.

I really did, Ocho.

And I looked fine.

But the body, man, it just wouldn't respond.

like I want like I needed it to.

And then once you come to to the realization,

is there anything that I could do to change people's perception of Shannon?

Some was going to like me.

Some weren't.

I had all the economy.

I had Pro Bowls, had all pros, had Super Bowls.

I was the all-decade first team.

So if I caught another 50 passes, if I caught another 800 yards, if I had another 10 touchdowns, if I won another Super Bowl, that wasn't going to change anybody.

They weren't going to think I was any better because I had four Super Bowls instead of three.

had another, I had 1150 catch seasons, which was a record at the time.

So if I had another with 12, they think I was better now because I had 12 instead of 11.

No.

Then once you start looking at it like that, OJo, for me,

that was good.

That was good.

And it just, it just got, you know,

they, you know, I just got tired of man.

Hey, come on, get in here, study.

Come on, guys.

Come on, man.

Let's practice.

It had started.

I had started to phase out.

Guys started to tune you out.

They didn't take it serious enough for me.

Oh, you're, man.

You know, when it comes to the job, the work at hand, look, play A.

I like to play two,

but

when it comes to work, Ocho, we got to get to work.

Understand why we're here.

Why are we here?

Why are we here?

Got to keep the main thing, the main thing.

That's it.

Bro, what let me ask you a question why do you think you're here

and it just

just my time to let it go ocho just my time to let it go and that's okay
