Oh,

what's up?

What's up?

How y'all doing?

Now, our second guest joining us

won the Super Bowl with the Rams.

Played unbelievable, a tackling machine.

Here you are, starting middle linebacker for the Seattle Seahawks, Ernest Jones.

That's it.

Yes, sir.

How y'all doing?

How you doing, bro?

How y'all doing?

Man, we're doing good.

I'm here on the road, chilling.

Hey, I can tell you something real quick.

Talk to me.

Hey, do you feel blessed that you ain't got to deal with me in today's game?

Honestly, I wish you was out there.

We wouldn't have to worry about you too much.

You don't think so?

But you know, I would have ran you.

You know, we got a Devin witherspoon out there, right?

A Devin witherspoon.

The only witherspoon I know is the kind I eat with.

That's it.

And running me over would never happen, man.

But Bum 236.0.

See what Ray did to you.

You know, Ray.

Ernest, man, thanks for joining us.

Bro, you fit right in

Seattle.

I mean, you having a great, you having a, let's go back.

The Rams.

Bro, you playing out of your mind.

You 130, 140 tackles.

What happened with the Rams?

I mean, we still trying to figure it out.

Honestly, we don't know.

We really don't know.

All I know is we ended up training camp practice in Houston.

I get off the plane to head to my car and I get the call like, hey, we finna trade you.

And I didn't

really see it coming.

Thought it was a joke at first, but they were real serious.

Hold on.

Were you asking for a contract?

Something had to precipitate this.

We never even got there.

I never got to talk numbers with them.

Just nothing, nothing.

It came out of nowhere for us on our end.

But honestly, I'm fortunate and glad it happened, though, because landing in, I mean, Seattle really changed everything for me.

Now

you get to be yourself.

You go to a team that Seattle, they pride themselves on on defense ever since the Legion of Boom with all those guys with Earl and Sherm and Chancellor and all those guys Abril and Bennett from their wag be wags from that time on this has been a defensive led football team and you land at a defensive led football team you mentioned a witherspoon you mentioned woland you mentioned the guys that you guys now have How has that transition seemed been so seamless?

Because it seems like you were drafted to Seattle, like you were born to play in Seattle.

I agree with you there.

That's how I feel.

I think the biggest thing that differed from there than a lot of the places that I've been

is 53 other guys in that room, in that locker room, man, they dogs, man.

They play football the right way.

It's for the love of the game.

And getting in there in October, once I was there, they welcomed me in so seamlessly.

And it just was a perfect fit.

Now, I don't know if you know this.

They traded you to the, they traded you to Seattle, right?

You know what that means?

You know when the Rams, when a team trades you within the division, you know they don't have a whole lot of respect for you, Ernest.

You know that right.

Well, they traded me to Tennessee first.

Oh, well, you got, oh, see, what are you buying there?

Because see, they tried to keep it out of the deal.

But now you got to see me twice.

So so now, okay, so you look up there, you say, you know what?

We got we got y'all such and such week.

We got y'all such and such a week.

I don't know what's going to happen, but I promise you, y'all going to feel 13.

Oh, yeah.

100%.

I'll be there.

Whatever time the game starts, I'll be there early.

What has it been like playing out there at that stadium?

I remember being out there that 12th, man.

Boy, you can't hear nothing, boy.

Boy, nothing.

But what is that feeling like, man, being out there with those guys?

I mean, like you said, you can't hear nothing.

I remember coming up here when I was with the Rams.

And, you know, the stadium, of course, I'm on defense and their offense is going, so I really don't hear the noise.

But man, my first game here

when we played Buffalo, I was like, this is real.

The 12,

they show up everywhere, anywhere.

Rain, sleet, snow, or hell, they're going to show up.

It's just, it's good to have a, you know, have a fan base that comes and support us and we got to show out for them.

Seahawks, they're allowing the second fewest points, the third best red zone defense, fourth most takeaways, sixth most sacks, sixth best run defense.

How have you guys, the first at the quarter poll, how have you guys been able to play so well, so quickly on defense?

I guess for us, I think the cliche answer would be like, you know, we trust in the guys, you know, next to us.

We put in the work.

But I'm going to be honest with you, man, Mike McDonald, he the man.

He puts us in great positions to

get out the quarterbacks, get out the opposing offenses.

Throughout the week, he gets us ready.

And then on Sunday, he calls a great game.

So a lot of it has to do with, you know, our ability and us going out there and executing.

But our coach got us dialed in right now.

But think about it.

You was on that team that won the Super Bowl.

Von Miller.

You got AD.

You got Floyd.

You had Ram.

I mean, have you ever thought about it?

I mean, did you go home and like, damn?

Boy, we got a this defense for real.

And man, shoot, every, every day that whole year, I was just thinking about it, man.

for the super bowl i'm sitting up there reminiscing on like okay big moment uh this is what you've been kind of working for and i think i ended it with like shoot just don't it up for aaron donald just

don't mess it up

so i went out there and just went out there and played and balled but man that learning from the best there is to play ad

um Bond Miller out there getting sacks.

I mean, even Weddell Weddell came in and showed me what it's like to be a true teammate, true leader.

So big credits and shout out to those guys.

What was it like watching Aaron Donald?

Because I remember watching him come out and I saw him at the Super Bowl before the draft.

And they're like, I was like, damn, who?

I said, man, that's Aaron Donald.

I see, I little rascal.

He the one to be cooked.

Because when you look at him, he not a, I mean, he, he, he has wide shoulders, but you look at him, he's like six foot tall, like, man,

him?

Boy, when I watched his first game, when he was a rookie, well, I watched him at

Pitt.

Yeah.

I was like, ain't no way that him doing all that, raising all that hell.

Taking on double teams, splitting double team, getting skinny, man, doing everything.

Everything you can think of.

When you first saw him, what did you think?

When you first saw him, what did you think, Ernest?

When I first saw him, I'm going to be honest, I didn't know

too much about him.

Like, of course, he was Aaron Donald, had been in the league a couple years, but I wasn't really all the way hip to him like I should have been.

And I can remember the first day I was out there giving calls, and he didn't get the call.

And he told me to speak up.

And the way he said it just caught me off guard.

So I'm like,

I can't let this grown man talk to me like that.

But to sit back and watch him, I found myself a lot of times watching him, watching him

create habit, destroy stuff.

And there's been times, man, he's he's stopped practicing.

They told him to get out.

So

I've seen some things

because you can't get anything done.

If he gets, if he's giving it 100% effort, you see what he does on Sunday.

Now, everybody don't got a Zach Martin or Quentin Nelson to be able to deal with him.

Or

what's the guy in Seattle?

I mean, not Seattle, but the 49ers.

What's the left tackle name, Mocho?

Big Trent.

Everybody don't got that.

So if he says, you know what, I'm just going to wreck shop today.

Y'all ain't going to get nothing done.

You're not going to get anything done.

And he decides when he wants to do that.

That's crazy.

Your squad started the season with the 20th best odds to make the Super Bowl.

Every publication had you guys picked dead last.

Now, all of a sudden,

it looked like

it might come down to you and you.

It's turning, huh?

It's turning.

That was the plan, though.

That's the plan.

We know what it is.

I firmly believe when the NFC West, when all four of those teams are smoking and on fire, man, that's one of the hardest divisions to come out of.

So what's on, we know what's on the line, we know who we got to get through to get there.

Last game of the season, this is for the division.

Rams takes on the Seahawks.

This is for the division.

What can we expect from Ernest Jones?

Oh, man, a performance.

I'm ready to ball out.

A performance, something sweet, slow, and sexy.

And you know what's funny?

Defense, y'all, the numbers speak for itself already a quarterway through the season.

But that goddamn Sam Donald and JSN,

they might be the next big thing.

Man, that duo right there is growing.

To see where they came from from OTAs when offensively, they were learning new, couldn't really figure it out to see them guys where they're at now.

And this is just a start.

Like those are Sam's a baller, cool, composed, and JSN is a quiet killer out there.

Were you surprised the ad stepped away when he did because you're talking about a guy that played 10 years he won three mvps he won uh uh um i mean he was phenomenal he's an eight-time nine-time first team all-pro I mean

and he's just like you know what

I don't want to do it no more I don't have the passion to train which what it requires me to be the AD that y'all see every Sunday that takes the offseason and I'm done with that I truly I could say I wasn't surprised because we kind kind of knew coming into that year that it was going to be it.

But I'd say you just said it.

For him to, you know, I guess be honest with himself and know that, you know, I don't have what it takes to be Aaron Donald.

I don't want to come out here and do the training and steal their money

and just, you know, be taken like you just said.

It was, it was kind of honorable for him to put it up the way he did.

Went out on his sword, went out at the top of his game.

And, you know, you got to talk about him for years now.

It's one of the best.

Yeah, and the funny thing, too, and even when you think about it, you think about Aaron Donald and all his accomplishments.

You look at his accolades, you look at his resume that's coming to the NFL, he won a championship.

What the hell else does he have to prove?

He had nothing else to prove.

I mean, a lot of people don't have anything to prove, but they're hard to walk away from 30 million.

Did he walk away from it?

I think they were still paying my boy a little bit.

I mean, because I mean, like I said, it wasn't like you saw slippage in his game.

He could still split the the double team.

He's one-on-one.

Hey, and he lined up.

He turning every door.

Oh, this, oh, this one locked.

Oh, man, they left this one open.

He going to stay right there.

He moving up and down the line, and he's telling everybody, I mean, your offensive line coach for the opposing team,

number 99, you circle him, he's going to get a chance to whip all y'all ass.

So let me worry about him.

Let's go on to the next guy.

Because that's what's going to happen.

He gonna whip everybody ass.

And you have to, guys like him and LT and

Reggie White and Bruce Smith, you had to account for them.

They would wreck your entire offense if you did not have

one miss.

He gonna hit your quarterback in the back of the head and he's gonna put it on the ground.

That's how he was, man.

Just a monster, man.

Just wrecking shot every day.

Like, it's some it's some stories that he probably wouldn't want told online, but that man, that man is a monster.

That yeah, that he was whipping all the offensive lineman ass.

They couldn't nobody block him.

And he said, look here, if y'all give me a little fee, I'll take it easy on y'all today.

Because they had one-on-one, you had one-on-one in training camp.

You had one-on-one sometime during the course of the year.

Yeah, ain't nobody blocking him.

I'll see him at some point.

Yeah, I mean, what you gonna do?

He's getting that shade.

He's getting that three tech.

Well, hell, he can get into five.

He could go up and down the line.

He can get into a nine.

He can get into a seven.

He can get into a five, a three, a tilt.

That matter.

What you gonna do?

And you know, it's funny.

And he uses his hands.

I've never seen D, a lineman look

use his hands like he could.

He's almost like a wide receiver.

I mean, if you look at the way he moves his hand, oh, Joe, how we swimming, how we knocking people's hands away, that's how he was as a defensive lineman.

And then he catches you, he pushed the arm up, and did he get skinny?

I gotta get, I'm in there.

Hey, hold on, hold on.

They got a bad boy over there in Seattle right now, too.

Now,

who that

99?

Oh, yeah, uh, uh, Williams.

Yeah, they got a bad man.

I'm not saying he's Aaron Donald, but he's a bad man.

Bad man.

I listen, I've got the luxury to play behind some great defensive tackles.

No, man, he's up there.

He's one of the ones, man.

And that whole front, that whole front four, whoever they roll out, Jan Reed, we got Byron Murphy, those guys, man, they keep me protected and I just fly around and make plays.

And you just, you just get the flow.

You just like, hey, keep it clean.

Keep it clean.

What,

when you come in, I want to know the goals.

So when you come, when you start the season, when you get ready, it's like, okay, I'll be getting ready to go to training camp.

Give me some, give me some of the goals that you set for yourself.

Oh, man, I'm sorry.

I think for me, some of the goals that I set

when it comes to coming out of training camp.

Are you saying on a personal level or just far as the thing?

Yeah, on a personal level.

Obviously, you want to win.

You're like, if I do what what I'm supposed to do, we're going to win because I'm going to get me about 150 of these things.

No, for sure.

For me, coming into this season specifically, this is the healthiest I've been.

I dealt with a knee issue for the past two years and I'm still able to play at a pretty good level.

But for me, this year was coming in healthy.

And then it was from that, let's take the next step in my game.

Let's start affecting these passes that come across this middle and coverage a little bit more.

Let's be more fluid out in space, make those tackles, and let's just see what happens, man.

Of course, I want to go.

I want to go all pro.

I want to be a pro bowler.

But I'm all about winning, getting there, and doing what's best for my team.

You want another

piece of jewelry, huh?

I need this one over here getting lonely, man.

I need another one.

Dude, let me ask you a question.

Do you wear it?

Like when you go on road trips, you suited and booted.

Have you pulled it out?

Do you wear it?

Are you just like, nah, I got to get you?

I got to get you.

I got to get you a partner.

I got to get you on the part.

I don't wear it.

Today, I pulled it out today for the first time.

Today was the first time in a while.

Um, but I don't wear it.

I'm waiting to get a twin sister.

Yeah, you gotta get a twin.

You gotta get a sin for it because he's lonely up there.

You know, he's like, damn, I ain't got nobody to talk to.

I ain't got nobody to holler at or nothing.

But what's going on?

I need it.

We

keep going the way we're going and just keep getting better.

I think we got a great shot at it.

Shout at it.

Absolutely.

You got anything else?

No, no, no, I'm done.

I'm done.

My last name for Ocho.

Hey,

that Madden overall.

We got to.

But Tammy, we got to tighten up.

Tell me what you need.

Hey, listen.

I take care of the receivers and the DBs.

I don't really operate with the linebackers and stuff.

What you need, speed?

You need screen.

To me, it's overall.

I think we lacking a couple of things.

The tackling, I think we do need to be better.

Missed four tackles last year.

Ain't too many people on the missing four tackles.

We got to get that up a little bit.

Right.

So what's your overall

81?

Yeah, damn,

81.

Yeah, yeah, that real though.

That real though, I don't agree with that.

Listen, I got a meeting with the EA team in the morning.

I'm going to address that.

I'm going to bring it.

I'm going to bring it up.

Like, I'm really not in a position to bring it up if it's not a skill position, like receive a DB, but I can sit on the table for you because it's on film.

I appreciate that.

That's all I saw.

I play for is the film.

I got you.

I got you.

I got you.

Who y'all got this?

that's gonna be a good one yeah

they got a they they got they a they they a them bucky uh bucky irving and and white they can run the ball baker throwing it a

matter of fact oh joe you know how to be like this here i was like i was on the pros and keep like, get it off, damn, I feel like I've been chilling.

It's gonna pop this week, it's gonna pop this week.

Oh, for oh, for sure.

So, when you got to Seattle, did you go to the market?

I haven't been yet.

Damn, what the hell you waiting on?

Hey, you got to go catch me.

I got here in October.

The only thing I was trying to do was figure out a playbook.

I get you.

I was trying to figure that out, but we're going to get there.

Me and my wife are going to get down there at some point.

So, you like seafood?

You like fish?

I go for fish.

I'm allergic to shrimp, but other seafood, I'm styling.

I'm allergic to shellfish, also.

It's just shrimp for me, which is crazy.

No, shrimp, lobster, crab, oysters, scallop.

This is a stout joy.

Now, I can eat, I can eat uh, uh, calamari,

but that's the difference.

That's a crustacean and a mullet, so there's they're two different.

Well, I'll tell you about it later, oh Joe, but anyway, hey, hey, you don't, what's your diet like?

You're not one of them healthy eaters and eat all that good stuff.

Oh, Joe,

I'm going to be mad here.

I'm like you.

I'm going to get it in.

I'm going to get it.

I will say I ain't been to McDonald's in a minute, but I'm going to get full.

I'm going to just eat.

That's what I'm talking about.

And see, and people want to understand.

They want to question, well, why is he so good?

Why is he great?

Why is he one of the best at NFL?

You know why?

Because he eats the way he's supposed to.

I'm on South Georgia.

Hey,

clean that diet up.

I guarantee you're all pro.

First team.

Hey, you clean the diet up.

You're going to get it.

Clean that diet up.

First team all pro.

Probably.

I got you.

Get you about five force fumbles, three picks.

Now, you know, with 135 tackles, four force fumbles, two fumble recoveries, and three picks.

Now they're talking about DPOY.

That's what they're talking about.

I don't know if you want that or not, but you clean that diet up.

I'm going to get it done.

I better get it done.

That's what I'm talking about.

Hey, listen.

Don't be listening to Ocho.

Hey, I'll tell you one thing.

Whatever you put in your system ain't got nothing to do with making none of that.

He just named.

I got you, baby.

Ernest, man, thank you, man.

Appreciate you joining us tonight.

Best of luck.

Appreciate y'all.

Hey, and when that season turns out the way you want it, come back and talk to me.

I got you.

Thank y'all for having me.

Appreciate you, bro.

Ernest Jones IV started the middle linebacker for the Seattle Seahawks, man.

He's an unbelievable player.

I mean, I was shocked.

I was absolutely shocked that they when they traded him on Joe because I didn't see because I'm like, man, no, no, he could really play.

Oh, yeah, absolutely.

Oh, yeah, he could, he could really, really play.

And the funny thing I'm absolutely shocked, yeah, that they moved him.

Yeah, the funny thing, too, about it, Unc,

when you move a player that's that good and makes that kind of impact at that position, that means there's somebody else that they see behind him that they believe in.

And I'm not sure who that is right now.

Well,

a one-man

trash is somebody else's treasure.

Because they got, the Seahawks got an unbelievable.

Hell, I'm surprised.

Hell, he didn't stay in Tennessee.

Yeah.

Tennessee, look, no, the guy can play.

Y'all, hey, chat, y'all know I call it like it is.

He can play.

Well, listen, he plays.

He for real.

He in the right place.

Oh, Joe, AJ Brown spoke to the media about why he's frustrated with the Eagles offense being stagnant at times.

Let's take a listen to what he had to say.

Yeah.

But I think it's fair to

want the ball,

to get us going.

Like last week against the Rams,

I caught the slugo, got the offense going next play, opened up in Dallas Yarder.

The safety came over to my side and opened it up.

So I don't think it's a bad thing for wanting the ball.

It's not just for targets or anything to put numbers up.

But no, I see that

we're struggling.

And I'm a guy that

wants the ball in those times when we can't find a a way, give it to me.

Like when the game's on the line, give the ball to me.

I want that.

I want that pressure.

I put it on myself, you know, and I work hard for it.

And so, and that's what, you know, the

misconstruction or whatever you

misconstrue, you know, whatever perspective

you can about me.

But, you know, it is what it is.

You know, and I don't care, to be honest, because my teammates know.

My teammates know that.

When the game's on the line, look at me, you know, and I want to, everybody in the stadium to know that, you know, and that's not a secret.

You know, I'm not shying away from that.

And so that's when you see that frustration because that hunger comes out.

And it's because I see we're struggling, and I believe that you give the ball to me.

I'm gonna open up things and I'm gonna get this thing going.

You can put it on my neck.

I like that.

You like the accountability first thing?

Yeah.

I do too.

The only thing I would say

is that

Keep it in housing because the perception of how it's going to be perceived right is completely different oh joe you know optics and perception is everything yeah in our business and this and the one thing he did say you heard what he said towards the end is even if you guys misconstrue what i'm saying or what the meaning is that i'm trying to uh get across i don't care and you have to have that mentality as well he has that he has that mama mentality in a sense he has a killer mentality at the receiver position he's out there by himself hunt he's on the island by himself himself.

So he's reliant on 10 other people.

Oh, he played.

No, he plays a dependent position.

Exactly.

You at the mercy of the quarterback.

Hey, every time.

So

when we're struggling or the type of team we are, the way our offense is, we run the ball to open up the pass.

Well, you know what?

I'm a player that's here where we can throw the ball to open up the run.

And I want to be that guy.

I put the pressure and the onus on myself.

Get me the ball in these situations.

You know, the hard thing is, Ocho,

is that when you win a certain way, the team believes that's the only way they can win.

So, so

what do they do?

Say, well, we won it last year.

Well, you have to evolve because Saquon is not, the holes are not there for Saquon this year like they were last year.

So, clearly, the defense is saying, we are not going to let 26 beat us at all.

If you guys want to beat us, us, he's going to have to throw the ball.

Yeah.

And AJ said, well, damn, can we throw the ball when they don't know we're going to throw the ball?

Hell, if we just throw the ball on third down,

you make it really hard.

But, you know, I'll be open on first down too.

I'll be open on second down.

Yeah.

So

you give them an opportunity.

And one more thing,

one more thing.

Another thing that they need to do.

Let's be a little bit more creative.

Let's be a little bit more creative when it comes to the type of routes that you're giving AJ Brown the run.

I can name him two based on the split every time.

The under.

The under and the slant.

Listen, if he's two yards outside the number, he's running the goddamn slant.

If he's on top of numbers, he running the goddamn curl.

If the split is condensed, he run the quick stick route.

Yep.

It's the same.

It's the same concept every time.

Like, what the hell are we doing?

That's it.

OJo, Joe, Travis Kelsey spoke about AJ Brown's tweet saying, you're 4-0, boss.

Come on, man.

It's frustrating for AJ right now.

Clearly,

he's going to social media to show it.

When I show my frustration, when we aren't rolling as an offense,

but it's also really hard for me to get mad when we're winning.

I don't find that energy when we're winning, putting up points and winning football games.

That's all I said.

That was my entire point.

It's hard.

People, oh, Joe, you guys say,

well, I'm hungry.

I give you food.

Man, this ain't no wagu.

This ain't no hard grant potatoes.

Man, this ain't no lobster back and cheese.

And that was my point.

That was all I was trying to say.

It's hard to get people on your side

when you're winning.

Billy wants to win.

Yeah, absolutely.

Absolutely.

And so when you're winning, it's hard to get people like, yeah, AJ, you're right.

They'll be like, AJ, we winning.

Yes, I want you to catch passes, but not as much as I want to win the game.

And so that's all I would say.

And I get what people say and people like with Travis Kelsey, yeah, he gets with, hey, when they not winning,

yep, he gonna act up.

When that offense is stagnant, and that's what AJ is saying.

So it's just hard.

AJ,

go talk to Jalen.

Go talk to Sirianni and go talk to your damn offensive coordinator.

That's who I'm talking to.

I ain't going to put no tweet out.

I ain't going to say I ain't going to put nothing on no Twitter orcho.

I'm going to talk to them because I got a direct lie.

I know, hey, I know where your office is, and I know I got her

phone number.

You don't think he done did that?

You don't think he done did that?

Because we had the same problems last year.

You don't think he's done that?

I think the first step is he probably went and had those conversations already, and nothing has changed.

Nothing changed.

Now we're in the next year, and the same shit's still going on.

But again, I'll give you a prime example.

Monday night, what did you see Chase do?

Chase walked right up to Zach Taylor, didn't it?

He walked right up to him.

He was frustrated.

He was frustrated.

And I'm curious.

I'm curious to see.

And it don't get no easy this week, huh?

It don't

this week.

They play Detroit.

Oh, Lord.

They play Detroit.

And you know, Detroit put points on the board, Ocho.

But who you telling?

They scored 50 weeks before last, and they scored 40 the last game.

We don't have no choice.

Zach Taylor spoke to the media today and said there's no need for us to bring another quarterback in, a veteran, because we believe in Jake Browning.

I said, well, shoot, if we believe in Jake Browning, I ain't got no choice but to get on that bus too.

Let me, guess where I'm at right now?

Where?

In Cincinnati.

Guess who I'm going to talk to in the morning?

Who?

The team.

Because I'd be damned.

What are you going to talk about?

I'd be damned if I get embarrassed Sunday.

I'd be damn.

I'm going to the game Sunday.

Obviously, I'm going to leave the game.

I'm going to the game Sunday.

Don't worry about it.

You can leave at halftime.

It'll be over.

Hey, listen.

Hey,

but when you, when they get

chat, we're going to start on time.

Hey, when they get this pep talk from me,

when they get this pep talk from me, before that game,

it's a wrap.

I'm telling you.

I'm telling you.

Okay.

I can't wait to hear this pep talk.

Hey, matter of fact, you know what?

I'm so happy.

And just speaking back about, like, I know you ain't sent me none of my gifts, but I got a nice gift for you.

I got a nice gift.

Ocho, what haven't I sent you?

Hold on.

I gotta, you know,

hey, I'm telling you, when you, hey, listen, when you get in that atmosphere at that concert, I'm telling you, you're gonna feel like, damn, I ain't felt like this in a long time.

You just, you just, you get loose, man.

You just,

and then hold on, we're gonna be in the, listen, we're gonna be in the crowd and we're gonna be standing on our chairs and stuff.

Getting

I'm gonna have to say, I'm gonna have to say that.

Hey, I got y'all.

I got your chart.

I got you,

I got you two securities, so nobody, can't nobody bother you.

It's just not a good look for me right now.

You know what I'm saying, Ocho?

It's a good look.

As a matter of fact, Ocho, as a matter of fact,

the first big function I want people to see me at, I want to be coming out of church.

Maybe I go to the parlour house in Dallas.

Maybe I come out of

CDJ's church.

Maybe they need to see.

Chad, y'all need to see me come out of church.

You know what?

Nah, nah, nah.

Hey, one thing about it, we ain't going that route.

We ain't going that route.

We're not going that route acting like, you know, we reverend, we reverend Al Sharpton and all that shit.

Yeah, that's what I got to be.

That's what they got to do.

Yeah.

Nah, nah, nah.

We got to turn up.

We got to stay.

We got to stay true to ourselves.

No, no, no, I can't be that no more with you.

I got to change.

Stay with me.

Stay with me.

I'm changing my life, Chad.

I'm changing.

I'm new.

Stay with me real quick.

It's okay to be new, but don't forget where you came from.

we come from times like that and at some times you got to revisit where you come from i got to go back to church oh cho i lost my way

i lost my way

i gotta go back to church chat i know y'all understand i know y'all listen to oh y'all want you know do something won't do something but that but that um

i had to put him up i had to put him on the shelf hey listen hey that unknown you tried to put on the shelf is what made us who we are.

I know, Ocho, but we can't lose that dynamic.

I reinvent myself.

If we lose that dynamic, then that doesn't make us who we are.

We can't lose that aspect of what makes us us.

So you can't go to Kirk Franklin route.

That ain't nobody wants to hear that.

Hey, as a matter of fact, Ocho, hey, don't be surprised when y'all see me in the airport.

I'm carrying my Bible.

I'm just saying.

I'm just saying.

That's where I'm at, Ocho.

I'm just saying.

That's where I'm at.

I'm carrying my Bible, Ocho.

I've changed.

Listen,

I'm all for change.

Matter of fact, I told Jordan to come pick me up.

Jordan be going to church.

I told Jordan, swing by and scoop your uncle.

Hey,

I'm telling you, that ain't it, huh?

That ain't it.

Listen, I'm with you when you're right, but there's certain things you have to still remain yourself.

Hey, listen.

You can backslide.

You can backslide.

I can't.

God forgave you already.

God forgave you already.

Whatever's for you is for you.

You didn't got to do all that extra stuff.

I just need to carry the Bible just for a little while, Lord.

And I'll tell you what.

You get the Bible.

You got the Old Testament and New Testament.

I got the Bible, King James Version.

Okay.

They got the Old Land and New Testament.

I'll tell you what.

Both Bibles have both Testaments.

Got you.

Listen.

I ain't never seen a Bible with this one Testament.

I got you.

Bring your King James Version.

Bring your King James Version Bible, Bible, October 13th, to the concert where you can be a young boy.

I tell you, I tell you that.

Listen, I'm going to give you a scripture.

One that I go off of.

Philippians.

Philippians 2, verse 27.

For thou hast not tried to live perfect.

Thou shalt backslideth at some point in life.

But you must stay authentic to thyself because no man is perfect.

So I'll see you, October 13th.

You see, I got you see, I got my thing.

I'm coming, most gracious and holy, Heavenly Father.

I come to thee in the most humble way I know how,

bow head, humble heart, on bent knee,

realizing that you're God of God, Lord of Lords, Kings of Kings.

Oh,

I'm done, oh, your boy out.

You boy out.

I already got that Stacey Adams,

I'm down on one knee.

Hey, hey.

I already told him.

I said, Lord, when my time is up here.

Hey, boy, hey, boy, you hell.

And my face becomes a looking glass.

Just give me a place somewhere in your kingdom.

Now, go up at Ocho.

I'm done.

Your boy, I'm out.

Chat,

I'm out.

I ain't fooling with Ocho.

As we mentioned earlier, Darren Tyreek Hill has a dislocated knee, multiple torn ligaments, including his ACL, ending his season four games into the season.

Tyreek's agent, Drew Rosenhaus, stated Tyreek's surgery went very well, according to his doctors.

It's about rehab.

He will play next season.

The realistic goal is the start of the season.

Ocho Tyreek is 31 years of age.

He has a big contract because the contract, the cap hit, is over $50 plus million dollars.

And most teams will not want to eat that.

Can he rebuild his market value as an elite receiver after this injury?

Absolutely.

Absolutely.

And even if he doesn't rebuild his market value and gets the opportunity to play somewhere again, he will soon, even if it's not with Miami, I'm not sure where he will go, but wherever he does go, he will remind everybody why he wants what he was, one of the top five receivers in the NFL.

Right now, obviously, he wasn't on the trajectory of doing that because they weren't playing well as a whole as an offense in general but when he does come back listen the speed's still going to be there some of the stuff that he's able to do is still going to be there it was uh dislocated kneecap no no no uh no extremities no hamstring no quads so the speed and all that stuff i i say three to four months i actually think we're what what are we in october right yeah October, November, December.

If football season, if they were to make the playoffs.

By the first of the year, Ojo, he should be running a straight line.

I mean, in two months, he should be able to run in a straight line.

That's what I was just getting ready to say that.

If it would come December, he would be able to come back and play if he wanted to.

He would be able to come back and play if he wanted to.

So

he's going to be all right.

No, baby, yeah, I mean, look.

Brandon IU had to tour his, and he still isn't back yet.

He's still dealing with some other stuff.

That's different.

He tours ACL completely.

This is just a dislocated kneecap with a few ligaments no he torch acl

no not fully

well that's what that's what is that's what being reported hold on let me let me let me text read real quick

now all of his business

look all i know is uh

I'm calling AP.

I'm calling Adrian Peterson.

I'm going to going to say, AP, I want to know everything that you did.

How long you did it, how often you did it.

Oh, yeah.

If you was in a hyperbaric chamber,

I'm getting a portable hyperbaric chamber.

If you did infrared sauna, I'm doing infrared sauna.

I'm doing whatever you did.

Push me to capacity because the quickest thing I want to do, Ocho, is get range of motion back.

That's the first thing I want to get.

I want to get that 120 back.

Once I get that range of motion back, I'm thinking about building that quad.

If I got to get that strength, so I'm going to put the steel machine because I want the muscles firing.

Yeah, because you know, that's that's a

take you a couple of uh uh some aspirin, some Tylenol.

So that pain, because they're gonna push you.

The thing is, with athletes, Ocho,

if you're a normal person, you get to go to rehab twice a week.

Right, an athlete they go to rehab twice a day, five days a week.

That's why, and plus, they got youth on their side, they got muscle, musculature on their side.

And they got the best that money can buy as far as

therapy, PCO, and doctors.

Resources, yes.

He could go anywhere you anywhere and have that surgery.

He could have went to Dr.

Neil Ellatrosh, or he could have went to the Curling Job.

That's what did my hips.

Or, you know, Stanley Hawkins or James Andrews, whatever the case may be.

But I hope Tyreek gets another opportunity.

Hope.

I want him.

Look, Ocho, he got speed to burn.

So let's just say, for the sake of argument, Ocho, he ain't 4-2 no more.

He's 4-3.

Wow.

I'm so disappointed the man could only run 4-3.

Right, right.

That should be a luxury for us to have, Ocho.

Yeah.

Yeah.

He's going to be all right, huh?

He's going to get an opportunity.

I'm excited to see where he goes.

If it's not back to Miami, I'm sure it'll be somewhere else.

There are so many teams that can use a threat, a dynamic threat at that, like Tyreek Hill.

And he's going to show

once he's back healed and he and he's going to make videos running full speed yeah he's going to look like he never left the game the thing is the hardest the thing the thing that he got to do ojo is stop planting cut yeah because that's everything for a receiver

he's going to be able to run in a straight line in probably two and a half three months

but it's when he gets that when he be able to

do that yeah yeah and and and speak when he got a like we talked about the other day 10 roll to 12.

Yeah.

When you hit that dig, when you hit that comeback,

because he's twitchy.

And then and then being able to do it with confidence too, huh?

That's the biggest thing on that.

Not having to worry about that knee.

To know that you know what, that thing strong, that it is strong enough it can sustain because you got to realize now that's just not a northern number receiver.

That's a guy that's running and

is stopping and getting in and out of break.

Tyreek don't do a whole lot of throwing that blink on

and diagnosing.

He's stopping on a dime.

So that's a lot of torque.

That's one thing.

I was 4-5-4-6

running the comeback, running the out.

That's 4-2-4-3.

So that's a Ferrari getting up to 100 miles an hour and slamming on the brakes as opposed to a pickup truck going 50 and slamming on brakes.

Yeah.

Mike's called Brian Dayball's reaction to Jackson Dart's first NFL touchdown.

Dayball screamed, that's our effing guy, as he nearly ran into running back Devin Singletary.

That's a man who stoked about his new signal call, Ojo.

Ojo?

Yeah.

What'd you think?

He said, that's our effing guy.

I mean,

it is their guy.

It's the guy they picked.

It's the quarterback that they drafted.

They just waited on his opportunity to play.

It came earlier.

It came earlier than most thought it would.

And he looked good, huh?

He looked good.

You didn't know what to get from Jackson Dart.

We know, no, we know what he could do because we saw him in the preseason.

He looked good in the preseason, but you understood

that's not the kind of defenses, that's not the kind of schemes.

Those aren't the players you're going to see in the regular season.

And Jackson Dart said, Hold my beard.

Let me show you whether it's the preseason or not, what I can do.

Multiple great throws,

yes, plays, using his legs on third down to get first downs.

He looked really good.

The thing that

tells me, well, I knew he was their guy because they drafted him and they seemed to rip.

But everybody, look, I don't take anything from a draft room because everybody's always, that's the guy we wanted.

We didn't think he was going to be there.

Okay, fine.

But Ocho, he named the guy the quarterback for the rest of the season.

He left, he removed all doubt.

Yeah.

Because he's like, okay, he could have easily said, we're going to start Jackson Dart.

He said, we're starting Jackson Dart for the

remainder of the season.

That is what they did with Dylan Gabriel.

They said, Dylan is our starter.

Yeah, they're leaving the door open.

And this is, we talk about two different scenarios, too.

Two different teams, two teams that have two different types of expectations for their season as well.

One coach is on the hot seat and understands.

Yes.

If I'm going down, I'm going to go down with the player that I wanted.

It's going to be, look, that's their guy.

They wanted him.

And he played really well.

You know, look, the one thing you can say about Lane Kiffin, he can coach his ass off offensively.

And he can coach the quarterbacks.

So.

Him and Sart was co-coordinators.

I think they was the USC when they were at the height, Carson Palber, Matt Leinert, so forth and so on.

So we know they can coach that position.

We know he is a

great.

What up there, OJo?

Where were you at, boy?

Well, I'm in my crib, man, living the good life, man.

I'm over here looking good, baby.

Yeah, you gotta be.

Well, you know what?

Y'all know who it is, but I give her an introduction anyway.

That's my dog.

Gwake, what it do, man?

Man, I'm living on it.

I got a special called Joke Telling Business.

It's in the top 10 in 24-hour release.

I got a TV show that's going to be on Fox, and I just got married, and you didn't show up.

You supposed to be my man, you ain't come to the wed.

I held all the things for you.

I said, Shannon gotta come, Quake.

You know, I quake, you know, I've been, you know, I've been had a rough 25 so far, Quake.

You know, you know,

hell with them, man.

You all right.

You Shannon shop, man.

You walk with your head up, and I support you like I text you.

You always,

my brother.

You were one of the first ones.

You see, you see what I mean?

Hey, Quake.

Oh, yeah, no, no, no, no.

Me and this dude, me and this man here, we got decade plus.

Yeah,

I used to, when he was at the uptown comedy quarter, we used to be in Atlanta coming.

I come see you.

Yeah,

nobody judge you, but God, man.

I appreciate that, man.

I appreciate that.

Hey, Earthquake.

Yes.

I got me and Uncle.

I got me and Uncle tickets to go see ENBA Youngboy October 13th.

And he's scared to go.

Talk about he wants to go to church instead.

Well, he can do that too.

Take the Lord with him.

Take the Lord with him, man.

Take the Lord with him.

Do you want to know his heart?

Why are you yelling fool over here tonight?

The Lord knows your heart.

Quake, let me ask you this.

When you get ready, when Netflix calls and they say, okay, Quake, we like to do a special X, Y, and Z.

How long did it take you to put this set together?

It was already ready.

I'm like, oh, Joe, I'm ready, man.

You ready?

I keep jokes.

That's why it's called joke-telling business.

I'm in the joke-telling business.

You told me the story.

Tell Ocho

why you went by the name of Earthquake.

Oh, man, because, hey, Ocho, this was just, this wasn't no epiphany.

I just tried this one time.

Right.

And, you know, I got him in the military for nine years.

And, you know, I got a family that's so critical.

So I ain't want to mess up my good name.

So if it didn't work out, you know what I'm saying?

because my family said you know he got out the military and went to atlanta trying to be rich and proud he must be on that thing

so i said if it didn't work out somebody say hey earthquake i said my name ain't earthquake my name nathaniel i don't even know no earthquake but it worked out that's what you know what i mean i ain't gonna mess up a good name Yeah, that's a good one.

But Quake, when you went as a comedian and you say you're in the joke telling business and you know, you were one of the first ones, because you like when I started Club Shay Shea, you were one of the first ones I reached out.

You say, bro, whatever you need, I'm there.

Right.

Then, how often do you tour?

How often, how many dates out there?

365.

How many tour dates a year are you on the road?

Man, it's 52 weeks in.

I'm through about 46.

Damn.

Hey, man, you got to pay for this hill.

This hill ain't free.

This hill ain't tough.

You got that big house now.

Yes.

Got that wife.

I got to go out and get it.

She feeds me and kicked me out the the door and said, go get it.

Go make this money.

Hey, Quake, what you think?

You know, I'm thinking about doing.

I'm thinking about doing stand up.

Come on, I'm bringing you on.

You can always work with me.

We'll start with two minutes and work you all the way up.

No, but

Quake, you know, we talked about it.

You're like, hey, man, you can really do this.

I'm thinking about it, Quake.

Come on out.

It's therapeutic.

You understand?

You understand what I'm saying?

Because I got these jokes.

I got a thousand jokes on me.

I ain't talking about like four of them.

You got some, you got some one-liners.

You'll give, you'll give half of the comedians that's out here now a run for their money.

Hey, I got some good ones, boy.

Yeah, oh, Cho, you, you got a, you, you got a plethora.

How white can that

matter of fact?

I'm gonna give you a small example right here.

Watch this.

Hey, Uncle, do me a favor.

Go ahead, repeat after me.

Okay,

blue,

blue.

The cat is red.

Cat is red.

What color is grass?

What color is grass?

That's a good one.

That's a good one.

Yo, you thought I was going to say green, did you?

No, you got you need a little help on that, old child.

I lost that one.

A lot of people boo you by the time you got to that green one.

You understand?

It took too long.

You got to get in there.

You got to be like your boxing.

You got to put them hands on them.

Okay, okay.

Hey, I'm going to work on my material, my delivery yeah that's what you gotta work on you'll be good after that all right

so so quake when they came to you you had already

this set that you did for netflix you had already had it ready waiting for someone like maybe it was gonna be netflix or whomever amazon whatever the case may be so you had this already lined up Well, see, when you're touring comedian sessions myself, every year you got to come up with a new set.

We're not like rappers or singers.

We can't tell the same joke that was a hit.

So I'm already in it.

You know what I mean?

So when it's ready, they get the call.

I say, this is the jokes that's for sale right now.

And I sell them to them and keep on going with it.

And that's what happened.

So now I'm going to be at Houston this weekend and I'm going to start all over again.

Start all over.

Yeah.

Quake, you know what?

In this age, you when you first started quake you could tell a joke damn there for a whole year because you was in Houston and you go to Dallas and you go to Atlanta and you go to Miami and you go to this place, that place.

There was really no way to commute, man.

Man, Quake told his joke.

Now

you tell one joke.

You goddamn near got to get a whole set when you go in Houston.

You move to Dallas.

You got to damn nearly get a whole set because everybody done posting you is your line.

Yeah, that's why you got to keep them cameras out the comedy clubs.

You understand?

That's why you got to do like Dave Shape.

Put them in them little bags.

Yeah, yeah.

Yep, yep.

You got to put them in there and keep them that way.

But I I don't worry about that, man.

Just the same way, I don't worry about nobody stealing my jokes.

You might can take the jokes, but you can't take the creator because it's who told them that makes it everything.

So that's where I'm at with it.

I'm like McDonald's.

I'm over a billion joke toes.

I'm going to create another one.

I'm going to keep on giving it to you.

That's about Donald.

Hold on.

I got another one.

I got another one.

I got another one.

It's crazy.

Come on.

You ready?

Come on.

What do you call a singer with a laptop on her head?

What do you call a singer with a laptop on his head?

What?

Adele.

Something wrong with your boy, man.

Go get him tested.

Go get him today.

Go show you something else, boy.

Let me ask you.

How long?

Are you going to stay in the joke telling business?

Are you going to do this?

Say,

as long as they laughing, as long as I can keep people laughing, i'm gonna tell jokes i might be 65 i might be 70 i don't know i ain't got no time limit on it the great thing about being a comedian you can do it to the lord taps you on the shoulder say he needs to see you in the office you can sit on he you can roll us up and put us in a chair and just tell him jokes from the chair and put a microphone in the face So as long as I'm confident and my mind is good, I'm going to tell them to God tell me to go because I love it.

I love making people laugh and I'm great at it, humbly, feeling or putting them together.

And it's a high, like nothing else.

And then again, it's therapeutic.

Instead of going talking to

a therapist, a therapist and giving him $100 or $200 an hour, I stand on stage and collect $200, $300 an hour.

Share my pain, baby.

And it's a beautiful.

So,

comedian, ever comedian, you, your job is to take an event that's happened to you or something you know or true and make it funny.

Is that your definition of comedy?

Yes, it's taking your experiences and making them relatable with everybody else and make it funny.

Laugh at my pain, laugh at my experience.

And the whole time, that's why you see the great ones.

And you also see when comedians get to a certain level, financially, successfully, they stop telling jokes because their experience is not not relatable to the people that they're telling the jokes to.

You know what I mean?

So you have to tap out because, you know, I tell my wife this all the time.

I said,

you know, shepherds should always spell like the sheep when you're charging the sheep.

Wow, I like that.

I like that.

I like that.

You know, so you don't feel you, you, you don't feel you cash that chip in that you feel you still on that relatable level that you can tell a joke because you still find you flying commercial you still you know hey i got nice things now don't get me wrong but hey but i take one day out and go shop at marshalls i go to tajay i go to the bowling alley i hang with friends most of my friends are not in the economical situation that i am so i hang in their lives and i go on and i be a part of that because they're my constituents who i have to sit to they don't want to hear about this part of it and this how well i'm doing on so i i make myself relatable by putting myself with people that's going through things that I'm going to be talking to.

So I can just sit there and diagnose what they're going through and live my courage through them and then take it on stage that way.

Man, that's unbelievable, man.

Tell them the name of the country.

I'm going to watch it.

You know what?

As a matter of fact, I'm going to go upstairs and watch it right there.

Watch it right now when I get done because I ain't got nothing else to do.

So please watch it.

Tell me what you think about it.

It's called, and the reason why I call it joke telling business, comedians need to get back to the job description and be funny i don't care what they doing but if they on any platform or anything else stick with the job description and if you're gonna sit here and carry the banner of being a comedian you got to be funny

but but see quake you grew up you grew up in a time that

You told jokes.

Look, obviously Philip Wilson had a lot of skits.

I mean, the Philip Wilson show when he was doing Geraldine, there's some.

And now these guys now, Quake, they hit a lick.

They get on the internet.

They tell a few jokes.

They do a few skits.

They done made it.

They going to get up out of there.

But it's not, it's short money, but it's long for now, but it ain't lasting money.

What I'm saying, if you want to, I'm three decades in here going on my fourth.

If you want longevity, you can't skip the process.

And that's the same thing you would tell anybody in your profession.

Hey, man, you got to practice.

Like you said, the coach always said, I would not accept nothing in a loss.

I wouldn't accept anything in the loss.

I wouldn't.

And then I wouldn't.

And that's the same thing.

You, you, you have to pay.

I don't, whatever way gets you to our genre in our profession, I have no problem with if it's the internet, shows, skits, but you still got to hit that stage and sit down here and come with funny jokes to be calling yourself a comedian.

And then if you don't want to do that, then take the title off of it.

Because I respect my art.

I'm just trying to see the protection of my art form.

And I'm in the joke telling business and i sling these jokes so and i expect everybody else to sling them jokes man quake man thank you for the time y'all make sure y'all go check out his special on netflix

what is it called joke telling you in the joke telling business i'm in the joke telling business

number seven right now and climbing and 24 hours out

Man, that's my homeboy.

That's my very good friend, Earthquake, Earthquake, Stake.

Hey,

what your commander is going to do on Sunday?

Man, we gotta get this win, man.

We went down to your hometown and laid a head.

I think we're coming out west and gonna get these charges because they're very vulnerable.

Western ain't got them, so the giants got them.

So that means that you can get them.

So I hope we get them.

And baby Jesus coming back, JD5.

So, but see what happened when they hold out, man, they get hurt.

You know what I mean?

Turry held out.

Soft tissue.

I told him to go hang out with Ocho and stay in shape.

So when he did get his money, we wouldn't have no hamstring pool or

that's how it normally happens.

There you go.

That's the great comic.

Good friend, good friend of the show.

Very good friend of mine.

Earthquake, Earthquake.

Congratulations on everything.

Congratulations on the marriage.

I'm going to hit you up because I need you to do me a favor.

I got you.

Bet.

Anything you need.

Ocho, I love you, man.

And I can still outrun you, Ocho.

Earthquake, make sure y'all go check out his comedy special tonight uh on Netflix in the joke telling business.

Man, look here, I've been knowing that brother

decade plus.

Great, great.

I couldn't tell y'all me once upon a time, I couldn't tell y'all what he did for me.

He did a real solid for his boy, but we're gonna let that go.

We ain't gonna tell that, we're gonna tell that story, Quake.

I reach that between you and the Lord.

All right, oh, Joe, we're gonna get back to our final segment of the evening.

It's time for Q and A.

Jason said, Ocho says he got jokes.

I got one too.

The Cincinnati Bengals.

Hey, listen.

See, people love to kick.

People love to kick a team when they down.

They love to keep a team when we down.

The only reason things are how they are right now is because Joe Burrows hurt.

Let's not get beside ourselves.

Zeldorf said, we need to start a GoFundMe to get Ocho a t-shirt with the Browns and the Bingles logos, including words, toilet bowl champions, because they're only the nine bowl Ocho Bingles will ever win.

Okay.

Damn, Ocho.

Okay.

I see we got jokes.

Okay.

Dylan Benavidez, with a great tight end play, I need to talk.

Someone's always bring up, but I need to ask Unk, am I tripping?

Or how good Algeron, Alger Crumpler,

was.

Crump was good.

He played, I don't believe he was with Vic.

Yeah, I think Trump went to like four or five Pro Bowls.

Yeah, Crump was nice.

Yeah.

For a man his size, he wasn't supposed to be able to move like that, Ocho.

He was a big boy, boy.

Hell yeah.

Hey, what was the court?

What was the receiver play with Crump what?

83?

He was

white.

He was white, though.

A white, yes.

A Roddy White.

Right, yeah, Roddy White.

And Roddy White, Peerless Price.

Peerless Price.

Yeah.

The long gun, love nightcap.

Ain't much fun, but I got five on it for y'all.

Keep pushing, brothers.

Thank you, bro.

Thank you.

Appreciate the support.

Sir underscore Kates, my guys.

Ocho, if the Bengals missed the playoff this year, Zach Taylor gone.

And is.

No, he won't.

Lamar Robinson, Uncan Ocho, if I could have one, if you could have one meal your grandma made for you, what would it be?

For me, it would be my grandmother's grilled cheese.

Listen, for me, it'd be my grandfather, and it's way back in the 90s.

I don't know how he did it.

Remember that evaporated milk came from the can with the cow on the front?

Yeah, yeah, Bordens.

He used to make me creamy wheat, Uncle.

I don't know how he did it.

That creamy wheat was so good,

oh my God.

But I do anything.

Obviously, it's impossible now, now, but just to have that creamy wood again as a little kid, I used to beg for that.

Me?

It probably be stewed chicken and rice

or

squirrel and rice.

Fried squirrel.

Fried squirrel.

But stewed chicken, man, I love, man.

Hey.

Hey, I need to find out where they got some stewed chicken.

Who do stewed chicken in Vegas?

We can do it.

We can go catch the squirrel.

We can record that.

You heard me?

I got a slingshot.

Yo, okay.

But I could go for a good old mess of squirrel and rice.

Fried?

Lord, have mercy.

Lamar Roberts said, okay, that was what we read.

James Lee said, how common is using stick'em on your gloves during your playing time?

Jerry Rice said, everyone was using it.

Have you guys ever used it?

Yes, everyone was using it.

Guys used to, defensive lineman,

an offensive lineman used to use silicone on their jerseys.

That's why you see the referees, they always pick the lineman and they pat them down.

That's why.

Because I didn't want you to be able to grip and grab a hold of my jersey.

So I was sprayed with silicone.

So guess what you couldn't do?

Grab my jersey.

And guys, offensive linemen would spray, stick them on their hands because when they grabbed the jersey, they wanted to be able to hold you.

Right.

Yes, it was very common.

Now, they cut

the spray.

Now, we didn't have the stick them like Lester Hayes and them had.

You know, Lester had it all over.

And, you know, he had it all on his socks.

He had it all on his forearm.

He had it everywhere.

And he touched the ball.

That ball was done for the rest of the game.

Yeah,

he was done for the rest of the game, but you're.

But you go back and find pictures of Lester and you see on his socks, you see all on his hands.

Yeah.

He had that wide base dance.

Yeah.

Yeah.

But it was, it was very common.

Zay 2x said, hey, Uncle Nocho, my dad's birthday was last week on September 22nd.

Could you give us a wish and give us and wish him happy birthday?

Could rank the best wide receiver duels.

I think my Cowboys are number one.

Yes, we could.

Happy birthday.

You didn't give us his name.

That would really help if you gave us his name.

But his birthday was on last week, a couple of weeks ago, on September 22nd.

So happy, belated birthday.

Thank you, Zay, for watching us and tuning in.

We really, really appreciate that.

The great ranked the best wide receiver duos.

Yeah, I think you guys are up there.

I think you got to put AJ and Devontae, even though their numbers currently don't say so.

I think you got to put Amon Ross St.

Brown and J Mo.

I think they're up there.

I think Puka and Devontae, they're up there.

Obviously, CD and

Pickens are there.

Chase

and T.

Higgins.

Man, St.

Brown got like six touchdowns already.

Yeah.

But they dishing that boy that ball, boy.

Man, that joke will be.

If you had to take one duo right now, you taking Chase and Higgins?

Absolutely.

I mean, even with, I know Joe Burrow's hurt, but I'm taking them in

right after them.

The next duo I would probably take.

If it wasn't Chase and T, it'd probably be J-Mo and St.

Brown.

Yeah.

For me, I would probably say,

I can't take T and what you call him.

Not with that quarterback.

Not with that quarterback.

I probably would take.

Amon Ross Saint Brown.

For me, it would be between Amon Ra and J-Mo and Puka and Devonta.

All right, that's a good one.

Man, Matthew Stafford, Ocho, he's dealing.

Yeah, if you're going to throw Puka and Devontae in there, I'm going to throw Jefferson and Addison in there, too.

Good point.

Great, great, great point.

Yeah.

We solid.

Peggy Hager said Goodell is mad at Prime for not taking his nephew to Colorado.

They took it out on Shador.

I don't know anything about that.

I don't know if Roger Goodell has a nephew.

I don't know.

I know he has twin daughters.

Met his wife when I did the thing for Netflix a couple years ago, but I don't know anything about that.

So, Peggy, if that's what you're saying, hey.

Jason Zeldorf said, after Monday night game, I was wondering if Unk was going to have to call the cops to do a wellness check on Ocho.

Yeah.

We put paint.

Man, that's embarrassing, Ocho.

Jamal the singer said, I know Ocho

fell asleep under an AC, but if he keep it a buck,

it was

stop eating all that,

Ocho.

I don't know what au is, you got to say it.

Booty.

Bago head.

We were excited to have D.

Wall.

Can you ask him if he thought those black uniforms were dope?

You like those dolphins uniform, old Joe?

Yeah, I like it.

It's different.

It's different, especially with the.

I like the old school, the teals.

The teal, yeah, the teal is nice with the white pants.

Yep.

That's nice.

I think the black was something different.

You know, a little change don't hurt.

Dr.

Frankie L.

Bellamy said, okay, fam, it's time for some humor.

Who you got?

Leslie Nielsen and Naked Gun or Jim Carrey and Pet Detective?

Oh, that's a good one.

Leslie Nielsen and Naked Gun.

I'm going with Leslie Nielsen, too.

That jump was funny, boy.

Man.

Hey, that was funny, boy.

King of the one-liners.

Hey, I think the chat might not know about the naked gun, though.

Man, please.

Naked gun, hey, they better stop playing.

Hey.

But that was funny, boy.

And then the one they had, the one with OJ in it.

Yeah.

He was in all of them.

He was?

Yeah.

I didn't know he was in the first one.

Yeah.

But funny.

Jared D said, hey, Uncle Nocho, my man, Jaden Blackwell, did it again.

He broke the world record in the 400 meters at the World Championship for the U.S.

Paralympic track team.

And he run the 100.

Ain't he run the 400?

Jaden, congratulations, bro.

Congratulations.

Hey, we are very, very proud of you.

We happy for you.

Congratulations again.

Another gold medal.

Hey, we can't say congratulations and thank you enough, but continue to keep up the great work.

And y'all see this?

Paralympic gold medal against the world.

That means you could do anything.

There are no excuses.

One would hear, I can't, or this or that.

No.

I love to see, I love, because I normally watch it, Ocho, to see these men and women.

I see, you know, people swimming with one arm, no arms.

Man, and you go, and somebody complain, man, I ain't trying to hear nothing you saying.

Nothing.

Don't even talk to me about that.

Because after I see these people out there with W amputees

and they got the guide sometimes running with them, they blind, Ocho, got a blindfold, And they got the guy run.

Hey, some of them people be damn near be out running the guide.

They fast now.

They be dealing.
