Oh Joe, reports surfaced of a meeting between Jalen Hurts, Saquon Barkley, and A.J.

Brown.

According to the Philly Voice, it was a long, positive conversation that lasted a couple of hours.

Let's take a listen to what Hurst and Saquon had to say about the meeting.

Why is it further thank you?

It's really just teammates being teammates.

What was your takeaway in the conclusion of the meeting?

Say it again.

What was your takeaway conclusion of the meeting?

I don't want to make this about that, right?

We got a short week.

We got a,

you know, the division opponent coming in here.

I enjoyed every second of it, and I'm enjoying every second of every opportunity we have to improve.

Yeah, I wouldn't definitely say it wasn't like a players meeting.

When you hear players meeting, that's like all hell's working with you.

It wasn't that at all.

But

also, I didn't, you know, we're teaming to all friends.

Like, we're just having a conversation.

And I personally wish that wasn't out there, to be honest.

But, you know, people saw us having a conversation and it got out there.

But I don't think we need to make too much of that.

Our main focus is on the Giants.

They seem very upset that this got out, that this was leaked.

Yeah, I mean, a current.

You know, you can't have no conversation like that.

If you're going to have a conversation like that, you're not going to be involved.

If it got out, it's three people involved, though, Joe.

Hold on, hold on.

It's three people involved, but you know, before they had that conversation, I'm sure someone told them, you know what, you need to go, you guys, all those that wear that C on their chest, you need to have a conversation.

And whoever appointed them to had that conversation, told somebody else, and then it got out.

You know that.

You can't, you know how difficult it is to keep something in-house?

You know how difficult that is?

Yeah.

It's very hard.

And you can talk to your blue in the goddamn face.

Still, if things don't change from an offensive perspective, certain individuals are still going to be bad.

You're still going to be upset.

And that's just the way it's going to be.

They're going to be fine.

They're 4-1.

They're going to be fine.

They're the Philadelphia team.

Why are you having a meeting at 4-1 then?

If everything is going to be fine, like you said, why are you having a meeting at 4-1?

What 4-1 team do you know how to meeting?

Can I tell you why?

Yes.

We need to nip it in the bud now before it continues to carry over.

What are we nipping in the bud?

We lost one game.

That's the first time we lost in 13 weeks.

Right.

Oh, yeah, you're right.

But I'm just saying,

all the noise, all the outside noise.

I thought they said they don't pay attention to that.

I mean, obviously they do because.

I'm just going about chat.

Back me up here.

They say they don't hear that.

They don't focus on that.

We're in this locker room.

All I care about is what the coaches and the players say.

So why do you care about what's being said outside the locker room?

It's not about what's being said outside of of the locker room.

It's the people, it's the media, it's the media that's inside the locker room that is the voice of reason for those that are outside because they're asking the questions.

And the questions that the media is asking shouldn't be based on anything about our offense, the production of A.J.

Brown, the production of Devontae Smith, and Devontae Smith, A.J.

Brown coming out and displaying their displeasure.

with the lack of offensive production and them being able to contribute to the offense is why they had to have that conversation.

That's all.

And just look.

it is it's it ojo it's just hard it's gonna be it's hard for the fans it's hard for an organization right you win a championship you four and oh and somebody's complaining about targets about balls i'm just i'm you've been in locker rooms and you know how they think yeah see that's the thing but see oh uh chat y'all let ocho fool y'all oh you'll know how front officers think yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah absolutely absolutely i think

look

there, I've happened to be a part of a couple of meetings.

You know what, Ocho?

I've never been in a meeting where we discuss X in the nose.

No, no, that's not those meetings before.

I ain't never been to eat it, meeting and said, man, man, 2JF Flag or Drive.

John, you need to throw me the ball with TJ Flagger Drive, man.

I was hot on 50 bingo pick.

There's been none of that.

It's always displeasure.

I got a problem with you.

Yeah, yeah.

I got a problem with you.

I got a problem with something you said.

Yeah.

Oh, yeah absolutely that's normally that's normally how it works and and and and i look like i said i've been in i've been in a locker room i was in locker room for 14 years

a lot of times i was the voice of reason um

a lot of times i was the guy that that resolved the issues because i'm gonna i'm gonna shoot you straight yeah

i like everybody you're my teammates but when it comes right down to it I'm going to say and do what's in the best interest of the team.

Because at the end of the day, I'm here to win.

I ain't here because, because, because we go our separate ways, I don't know.

You might come back to the, you know, you might come back to the reunion.

You might not.

You might come back to the alumni thing.

You might not.

So there's a good chance I might not ever see you again.

But in the meantime, while I'm here, I'm going to do what I'm here to do, which is win effing games.

And I'm not going to let you, you, or you F that up.

Yeah.

So whatever we need to do, and I'm saying this, and they're going to be a second meeting.

We're going to get whatever we got out, get out.

We're going to get that ish out to date right now.

It ain't gonna be no more meetings now, and they're gonna be no meeting, no two, no one-on-one, or no, two.

This is it.

So, whatever it is, and boy, you know, me.

Hey, if I got something, I got some of my chest.

You should have told me that because it's on the table.

Yeah, whatever's on my chest is on the table because I'm telling.

Listen, we're gonna see the results of that meeting on Thursday.

Wait, wait, oh, that's tomorrow.

Who the hell?

They playing,

I i guess it's got to be uh uh washington or the giants they said a division rival oh that's gonna be i don't think they play the cowboys so it's one of them uh

if it's a commander that's gonna be a good game yeah for sure oh my goodness jaden daniels back jaden daniels coming off a good win going back home to la

oh that's gonna be nice it's just hard but I like I said, Ocho, I'm just me, when I won the championship, I don't care.

I caught a couple of passes hey i ain't got no big stats in any of the super bowls all i know is i got a three by mine and a zero in the i got a three in the first column and a zero in the second column that's all i care about well they playing the giants they playing the giants they play the giants yeah yeah

so i like like i said i know they're upset that it got out um

Yeah, I mean, they knew we were going to have a meeting.

We didn't have no choice.

After what was going on, we had already lost three games and things were starting to unravel.

Wait, three in a row?

Oh, yeah.

oh, Joe, we man, we started the season, we lost to Pittsburgh, we lost to Kansas City, and we lost to Sam Fran.

And then, the incident happened with JJ Stokes.

That thing, them good teams, man, y'all ain't

who the hell you think we were,

okay.

So, let me tell you what happened, oh Joe.

So, we got we got the we got the thing.

Uh,

we got the meeting, Mike said what he had to say.

Mike said, We're gonna leave

because they're already there hey i had already put that we got to get this thing we got to get this we got to settle this right right

mike got up walked out mike said we're gonna leave y'all take as much time as you need

wait this was this with romo right with romo and uh

but it was that was that was the proverbial scrawl that broke the camel's back but there was a lot of that had been festering There was a lot of stuff that had been going on.

Guys been bulljoving, guys kiki keying, guys not paying attention, guys slacking at practice and you let that ish go right

y'all got that together

huh y'all got it together huh went and won the super bowl

and then we went and then we went and then we backed it up yes we played we played the seahawks that final game beat the brakes off of them And got Jacksonville in the first round.

Owed them an ass cutting for what they they did the previous year, and we blew the doze off of Rush for 300.

Who was the quarterback then, Grar?

No, Brunel.

Brunel, Mark.

I forgot Mark.

With Keenan and Jimmy, yes.

What Jimmy did?

Not enough.

We had 300 yards rushing.

We had two guys go over 100.

Wait, you had 300 on that defense?

Yeah.

After they had already talked all that stuff.

Oh, check this out.

The year they beat us, they lost the AFC championship game to

the Patriots.

So you know back then, if you lost the AFC championship game, your reward was to go coach in the Pro Bowl.

Okay, that's right.

The team that won the championship got to go to the Super Bowl.

So

I get over there, Ocho.

You'd have thought

that was Vince Lombardi staff.

The way they talking.

I say, you don't say.

So you know me, Ocho.

I come back.

I tell Mike, Mike, you ought to saw how they was talking over there.

You'd have thought that was Vince Lombardi or Bill Walsh.

He's like, hmm.

I said, yeah.

I say, guys, man, you ought to see how they was talking.

They was talking reckless.

Everybody like, really?

And then Mike said,

You know, guys, when they found out that they were going to play us in the first round in the playoffs, everybody on the plane applauded.

They started cheering.

Oh,

we got them again.

We're going to beat them again.

Okay.

Man, why Mike say that?

I don't know if that's true or not, but you know what?

He said it, so it was true.

Right.

I said, look here.

We got out that thing.

Hey, we got out there.

We got to go to practice.

I said, look here, man.

I don't know what's going to happen, but I just know them motherfuckers ain't going to beat us.

Right.

I said, TD.

Hey, TD used to always ask me.

He said, 84, what it looking like backside?

Come see me.

You want to get down on your cut?

Hey, he go one way and cut right back on.

Come see me.

I'm on the backside.

How's handle that front side?

I'm coming backside.

All he needed to know that my DN wasn't gonna put his helmet on his hip.

That's all he needed to know.

Once he made that cut, I say, Hey, I say, TD, either I'm gonna wash him down or that hole is gonna be there.

Take your choice.

Either go in or go out.

Man,

hey, talking to us like we boy.

Hey, somebody say I look like a youth pastor.

Oh, Joe, Kevin Petulo, we've done a good job.

We've done what we need.

We've moved the ball at extremely high rate.

Some stats, three and out rate, 32nd.

Worst is the 49ers in 2005.

Punts play

31st.

Yards game, 30th.

Yards play, 29th.

First down play,

28th.

How you feel?

Think about it with those stats.

That just goes to show you that they,

with those stats like that, Ocho, you're not repeating.

Nope.

Let's be real.

I'll be chatting.

And see, that's the thing.

See?

Three and out, you 32nd in three and out, socho.

Yeah.

Hey, uh, the way you won last year, you know, everybody got feeling when you, right?

Thank you.

Notice you can't run the ball this year if you're going to repeat you got to evolve offensively you got to win it the same way you won it last year you you just can't and obviously you think about the chiefs and the chiefs continuously going back to back to back even with their struggles they had they find other ways to win obviously they're they're schematic they're they're schematically built differently than each year

The Philadelphia Eagles are damn near one-dimensional, if you think about it.

Because if we can't run, then what do we decide to do

we can have no choice but to throw right but they know you're gonna throw yeah and then which makes it it makes it even more difficult yeah and it makes it even easier for the defense is the route concepts how the hell they're rudimentary how the hell can i look how can the hell i can i don't even play for the eagles but i can tell by alignment and down the distance wherever aj brown is lined up or wherever devontae smith is lined up and i can call the route out before they even run it they look they they got a simple concept.

They'll put AJ outside and they'll put Devontae Adams in the slot.

AJ will push up, run the under.

Devontae either going to try to rub and get wide and run the gold ball.

And if they don't do that, what they'll do is

they run double.

Damn, what do you call it?

Damn, how you say it?

Damn, God damn, it slipped my mind.

Both of them on the same side?

Yeah.

Okay.

Boom.

I know what I mean.

I'm going to say if Devontae Smith is on the ball and AJ's off, it's double slant every time, yeah, double slant every time.

Yeah, I mean,

I'm like, if I'm AJ Brown tonight, I'm tired of these on the

slants.

Give me an over, give me a dig, give me a comeback, give me a square out, give me something.

There's no creativity offensively, no creativity at all.

So

they've gotten to get better, they got they've got to get better

offensively.

Defensively, I think they're fine.

They're playing a lot defensively.

They're playing a lot more than what they played last year.

So that's why the defense,

Jalen Carter got to get in better shape.

Jordan Davis is in phenomenal shape.

Jalen got to get in better shape.

He's got to get in better shape.

Secondary, I think they're fine.

Secondary.

Mitchell is really good.

Cooper DeGene is doing what he does, blanketship.

But they,

it is tough.

Like you said, Ocho, everybody knows you want to play cover two and just want to rush four.

They're like, nah, bro.

Ain't going to work.

Nope, that ain't going to work.

That ain't going to work.

So we'll see what comes of this meeting.

I'm excited.

You excited?

Matter of fact, I mean, they play at 7:30 tomorrow, right?

They play at 5-something.

Well, I don't know what, I mean, if you're on the East Coast, it's 8.20.

So

I land in London 8 o'clock on Saturday.

So

that's six hours ahead.

So you leaving Friday?

No, I leave literally like, it's 11 o'clock now.

I leave in, what, one, two, three, like in five, six hours.

Well, it ain't going to be Saturday over there.

Oh, you're only six hours ahead.

It'll be Friday over there.

It'll be Thursday.

Right, that's what I'm saying.

I'm going to make it up.

You said you're going to be Saturday.

You said you only get there six hours.

No, I'm going to get there tomorrow.

Thursday.

I land Thursday night.

You said Saturday.

No, Thursday.

Yeah, I know.

Tomorrow is Thursday.

Oh, my bad.

My bad.

My bad.

I'm just trying to make sure I don't miss the game.

I'm still going to be able to see it, right?

They might have it on the plane.

Nah, it's Amazon Prime.

No, they're not going to have it on the plane.

Hey, Hutch.

Man, where you been at, man?

I've been here.

Welcome to the show.

Zay, bro,

with the offense exploding in a way that they haven't all year long, do you feel this is what the doctor ordered to get you guys out of the funk and get you guys headed in the direction that you wanted to do?

For sure.

I mean, anytime you can, you know, put up 44 points in the NFL, man, you're doing right.

And I feel like, you know,

the only thing we needed was just a little bit of confidence, man.

And that's what you're going to get was a win in the league.

So I feel like we're heading in the right direction.

It's only about us, you know, being consistent now.

And you know the funny thing, too, offensively, Hutch, not only for you, obviously building your confidence and getting some of those passes, getting that trust from your quarterback and knowing that, okay, this is someone I can count on.

This is someone I can trust in times of need.

Do you look at it, the fact that the Ravens were depleted defensively and had so many starters out?

Do you guys look at that and say, we don't care about who's hurt, whoever we line up in front of, they're going to get that work and carry that same mentality into the future.

You got to, right?

I mean, it's the NFL.

Like I said, man.

So like the second string, third stream, them still good football players at the end of the day.

So like you got to go in there with the confidence that, you know, anybody who lines up against you can get the work.

And, you know, unfortunately, you know, they had a lot of injuries.

I mean, you know, that's a part of the game.

But, you know, you can't really, you can't, you can't lie.

You can't really think about that.

So

they ain't got nothing to do with us.

Because at the end of the day, I'm going to put that.

Hey, I don't care if you're out there with a cane in a wheelchair.

I'm going to go buy you.

You got to, right?

Like, that's just like, you got to be a little.

You got to be a little crazy, right?

With your thoughts and your thinking.

Like, you got to have that type of mentality or else you're just not going to succeed in the NFL.

CJ,

what's CJ like in the locker room, practice field, the bus?

We know

he's a competitor.

Obviously, he had that sensational rookie year, took a little step back.

He seems to be now with this big win over the Ravens, dropping 44, throwing, I think, through four touchdowns, clean game.

What's CJ?

What's CJ like?

What's he been like?

Seven's a pro.

I know a lot of people, you know,

they can get tossed around a lot of different ways, but seven a pro, man.

Like, he's gonna come in every single day in the same person.

And, I mean, when you have that type of success, man, like, you know, you can change quickly, right?

But he got set like his morals, his moral compass, what he believes in, like, that keeps him grounded as a person.

And then as a football player first.

And as a person, bro, he funny, bro.

He always joking around.

He always got something to say.

You know how those Cali people be, bro.

They always got some jokes under their sleeve.

They always want to joke with you, rank with you.

But that's just like, that's just who he is as a person, bro.

Like,

you won't want anybody else that's your quarterback, right?

Like, you want somebody who gonna,

he walked, he walked through the door, you know, he in.

You know, he in there.

Like, you know, he in the building.

And that, you know, that gives you confidence too.

Like, you know, I'm catching the balls from seven.

I'm making plays with seven.

Seven trusts me to throw me the ball.

Like,

man, that's a good ass feeling.

I won't lie to you.

Yeah.

You know what's funny?

What I want to to ask, and not to give too much away, when you have a game like you had, right?

Do you see the offense

getting you a little bit more involved, seeing that you can also be a playmaker outside of them always keying on Nico Collins or other players?

Now, now we have another weapon in Hutch now.

Y'all got to focus on.

You can't double goddamn Nico all day because Hutch is killing.

Yeah, I mean,

I'm an athlete.

I'm a competitor, bro.

Like, so, like, obviously, I'm a receiver, too you know so you know like i want the ball naturally that's gonna happen like

you're gonna you're gonna want the ball so like but you know the first thing that i go back to is like you got to show an in-game that you deserve to get the ball or that like you're you're worthy

and then also like in the heat of moment you got to capitalize on your opportunities that you get because you're not going to get too many Like, you know what I'm saying?

Like, they may throw you some.

If you don't capitalize on them, right?

You don't know when you're going to see your next opportunity.

So like, for me it's really just always been like just being consistent showing up every day making the plays when i'm you know giving the plays and then going from there so it's like

i you know i would like to hope so i'm too coming out of the answer but like you know i would hope so but at the end of the day too i got control

Listen, I understand the game of football.

I understand the game of football, and they always reward those that they can count on in the most important times.

So even if you haven't seen it yet, I can tell you, whatever your plate looks like before last week, they're going to add some more to that plate.

They're going to add some sides.

I'm telling you, I'm just telling you what's going to happen.

And subconsciously, because of your performance against the Ravens, if they don't call it, seven coming to you any goddamn way because he's going to remember, damn, when I needed him most, man, Huds was right there.

Subconsciously, the ball coming to you.

And that's some of the things that you can't coach.

You can't coach that.

There's some things you can't coach.

And just, it's in the quarterback's mind.

They always remember who can I count on in times of need.

And when you show up the way you do, when you make the most of the few opportunities you do get,

man.

All right.

If you go for 150 this week, just know, just know you.

No, for sure.

I will.

I'm going to shout you out for sure.

I got you.

X, why do you think you guys got up to such a slow start this year?

I mean, if you really look at like how we played in those three games, like we was in the game the entire time, right?

Like, granted, we got, you know, one of the best defenses in probably the league.

So you're always going to naturally be in games.

But like, we was just causing like our own conflicts on, oh, you know what I'm saying?

Like, turnover is going to kill you late in the game.

Getting behind in the chains early.

Like, can't no offense be successful when you sitting in first and 20s.

Playing behind the stage.

So it's like, like, you already playing a good team because it's the league, of course.

But also, you're not helping yourself when it's first and 20, second and 15.

Like, it's hard to get a game going like that.

So, like,

you just got, you got to be in front of the sticks.

That's what the league is, man.

If you're sitting in third and four, third and five the whole game, you're going to most likely convert them because, you know, you got good players.

So it's like, man, just not beating ourselves up, especially in like the heat of the moment.

I feel like it's why we got off to a slow start a little bit.

But also, like, them slow starts teach you a lot, though.

Like,

man, you had a slow start, so what?

Nobody really cares.

You know, the world is gonna talk, you know, crazy about you, but we all know what we got inside our building, what we can do on any given day.

So it's like, man, you just gotta keep that in the back of your mind, too.

Yeah, what's the transition?

You go from Bland Junior College, Iowa State, and then

to the NFL.

The Juco route.

Cam, everybody knows Cam went to Blenn.

And then Iowa State.

So what was your thought process when you went to Juco?

Man, and Juco, bro, it's only one way it's going to go.

You're either going to make it or you're not going to make it.

Bang.

Hey, Santa Monica Jeannie Polly.

See, you know it.

So then you know it then.

Like, it's so much talent that goes through Juco that probably nobody's ever heard of, nobody's ever seen before.

You know, like, that's just the sad truth about Juco.

Like, you got to grow up very quickly and you got to learn from the mistakes that you made in the past.

So, really, I tell you, like,

Juco is going to make a man out of you.

Like, if your parents already did, I'm not throwing, like, my parents, man, they raised a great man because I'm here today.

But Juco taught me how to be a man and how to, like, take them licks on the chin and get back up.

So, it's like,

Juco, it's just going to teach you more about yourself than you probably know.

Because you either going to make it or you're not going to make it.

And you can't really blame nobody for you not making it or making it.

It's all on you.

Yeah.

We got a lot of guys, Ocho, in Savannah State from Juco, Ittawamba, Cahoma.

What's that one?

There's one in Kansas.

We had you from Islesworth.

What's the one in Coffeeville?

We had a bunch of Juco guys.

You know what?

Where are you from?

Jacksonville, Florida slash St.

Augustine, Florida.

Were you from the Creed?

Come on now.

Oh, man, stop.

Clan, hold on.

And I want to ask you, right?

And I always want to ask people that actually live in that wonderful city that

I don't like the jungle.

I call it a jungle.

What's it like living in Houston?

It's different.

Is it difficult?

It is difficult a little bit.

Just because, like, yeah, real difficult, real difficult, X.

You know what I'm saying?

I feel like you're saying difficult for a little bit of different reasons than what I'm saying difficult for.

It's difficult.

Whatever.

difficulty

with that i i transitioned away from football because i've been to houston one time yeah i ain't coming back i've been to twice i ain't coming back no more because i can't deal with that so i'm trying to understand how do you focus in season when you got all that around you

gotta have a great backbone

gotta have a great backbone like i gotta I surrounded people who like, who love

and who care for me and want to see me be great.

So like really trusting in like my family my family my backbone uh my girls my backbone

yeah okay you know what i'm saying so it's like i i got a lot of people who who believe in me who you know want to see me make this you know something more than you know just being you know what the nfl stand for not for long yeah and i know you know me personally i want to make this a career i don't want to make it a job

So

when

wait a minute,

hold on i gotta write that down hold on i gotta write that down hey say it again what you said

not a job i can't lie to you though i can't lie to you though i i did get that from somebody though i got that from rob woods man in my first year in the league he told me that so i'm gonna also throw him a little shout out too so shout out to rod woods man i appreciate you brother hey yeah he gave me he gave me great gems he gave me great gems

Check this out.

Ocho, this is your, this is your, I'm going to throw this up for you, Ocho.

Now you, this man was praised for his route running ability when he came out of college.

Yeah.

So

now that

you can run the routes, what are you working on now?

What are you trying to get better at now to make you that complete receiver?

Because, yeah, running routes are fine, but

hey, I got to be strong at the point of attack.

I got to be able to, A, I got to be able to high point the ball, the 50-50 balls.

I got to be able to run after the catch.

I got to be able to block.

What are you working on to make yourself that complete complete receiver?

I would say, you know, I'm still fine-tuning my route running.

Uh, you know, when I got to the league, I learned a lot.

Like, I thought I was a really good route runner, and then I got to the league and I realized, you know what, bro, maybe I'm not as good as I thought I was.

I'm being thrilled though, because you go against up a lot of good DBs, man.

And, like, any of the little small you was tipping your routes,

were you tipping your routes?

I won't lie to you.

I had this bad, bro.

I had this bad habit, bro.

I had this bad habit where I used to throw my head.

So, I throw my head to the right, that means I'm going left.

Left.

Why would you tell me which way you're going?

But it was like, a little bit of it was like, man, I didn't, I won't even lie to you.

I didn't believe that I could get open.

You know what I'm saying?

Like, I had a lack of confidence in myself that I couldn't do something that I've been doing for my whole life.

And so really, I made that a long answer.

But

always got to fine-tune your route running.

Always.

That's something that you can never get like perfect at you always got little small things and then two i probably definitely say uh like the catch point man like just trusting my hands sticking the mittens out there and grabbing the ball

yeah

you don't catch with them you catch for sure you definitely catch with your eyes i also learned that too so look see you always learning something new every day

hey hey listen listen when you want to when you want to um get a little work in about with you know with them feet you know come on down there for a little second all you got to do is hit me up bro

hey you know, I got

a wide receiver workshop.

I got a wide receiver workshop in June or July.

I'm gonna send that invitation.

I didn't get it last time, I didn't get it this time.

I got you, I got you.

Listen, I'm gonna get it to everybody this time.

I'm there, yeah.

I need

all I can get.

I got a whole lot of knowledge, I'm knowing

I crossed the water for you, but I promise you, boy, I come.

Hey, it don't matter where I'm at, but I drop all my plans, bro.

I'll come out there for sure.

Appreciate it, appreciate it.

Give me some of your strongest influence.

When you were growing up, who were some of the big influences?

Maybe as a parent, maybe with the coach, maybe it's someone that you saw.

Give me some of your influences that helped shape what we see here today.

I mean, honestly, I think it starts with like my brother, my older brother.

I wouldn't have probably played football without him.

You know, I wanted to be like him, like every little young sibling.

You want to be like your older brother.

So I wanted to be like my brother.

And then two,

I probably really say my receiver coach in high school, man,

Coach P,

he the one who kind of made me transition to being an outside receiver, like my senior year in high school.

He saw something in me that I like, you know, I didn't really see in the moment.

And so like a lot of props to him, bro, for like just believing in me and seeing my potential.

And maybe, you know, I didn't see it.

So I give a lot of props to him.

And then, you know, can never leave out your parents.

My mom and dad.

They raised me to be the man who I am.

So I probably say them definitely probably my biggest influencers.

that's dope well congratulations on your breakout game continue success stay healthy and uh when you have some more success come back

i will this be the first show i get on

i appreciate that all right man that was good

Oh, yo, Rashad Bateman acknowledged today that it's kind of shocking to himself and the rest of the organization that the Ravens are off to a one-in-four start, which is tied for the worst in franchise history.

The preseason betting favorite to win the Super Bowl, Baltimore has now lost three straight for the first time since 2022, including back-to-back losses of 17 points or more.

Bateman said, the fans got every right to feel how they feel.

They expect excellence.

It's our job to deliver that.

We're not upholding the standard right now, so we deserve all the criticism.

Hey, listen, this is a game of football, huh?

It's a game of football.

You know, things happen.

When you have injuries, most of the time you're not able to play as well as you did the previous season when certain important pieces to your offense or your defense are hurt.

That's just the way it goes.

Most of the time, we always say next man up, but when it's too many of those next men that have to be up, this is what you get.

You get one and four.

So you hope to get most of those key pieces to your offense or your defense back as fast as possible.

Because

if you fall too deep in a hole, you go to one and five.

And you look up, you go to one and six.

Well, hell, the season is over.

At that point, you're just playing for pride in the name on the back of the jersey and the symbol on the helmet.

What'd you do?

You went out.

You were the glitching on your what you doing?

I ain't doing nothing.

I'm sitting right here looking at you.

You can't hear me.

Oh, yeah, that's all your

talking about me.

That's your dial-up Wi-Fi.

No, that's not.

I paid for that band in in my hotel

see i can't hear you

ash can you hear me ash i i hear you

okay hey chat we're chatting once again chat is not me we're having technical difficulties and that's on that's on shannon's end but anyway i can sit here and talk to you guys um

I'm not sure what y'all doing.

I'm not sure we're out.

But again, I want to thank all of you for being here with us tonight.

And I want you to do me a favor.

Don't forget, go to our Instagrams, go to our NICAT Instagrams and vote for us because there's no reason why we shouldn't be in first place.

We should win this by a landslide.

And I mean that in a respectful manner to our competitors.

You know, they do their thing.

They do their thing.

But what we got here is different.

It's different.

You know, and that's all love to all our competitors, but we should be number one.

So when Thursday, when the voting ends Thursday, we should be number one by a landslide.

Okay?

Can you hear me now, Ocho?

You can't hear me.

I'm just playing.

I can hear you.

You got me?

Yeah, I got you.

I heard you.

I heard you.

I was good.

He's a good one.

I'm just playing.

Yeah, I don't know what's going on.

Look,

with the Ravens,

remember, expectations.

They were the betting favorite to win the Super Bowl.

Yeah.

So now here we are, five games into the season.

We won it for.

Yeah.

But you have to understand, why were they betting favors, huh?

Look how they ended the season.

I know they ended on a sour note, but they played well throughout the season.

Lamar had a historical season, 47-1 touchdowns, nah, 4-1 exceptions, you know.

So you're expecting them to be in the Super Bowl because you're expecting them to pick up exactly where they left off at.

Yeah, but

we didn't expect this defense to have as precipitous of a drop as it's had.

Exactly, it did, right?

So that's the part.

Okay, let's just say for the sake of argument,

I was concerned.

And, Ocho, you you remember when I say, Ocho, I'm concerned about this defense.

Man, it's only one game.

It's only one game.

As a former athlete, as a performer football player, we look at tendencies.

We look at things.

We see things that you don't see.

That's why

it's hard for me to be a fan because I'm not just concerned about the score, how you score.

Okay, what coverage were you in when you ran this?

What formation?

I'm looking at that.

And I'm like, bro,

you gave up 250 yards, you gave up 22 points in the fourth quarter, and you're supposed to be an outstanding defense?

Right.

I don't know about that now.

But also, you got to think about it now.

I think people continue to confuse the Ravens' identity with being their defense.

This is not the Raven defense of the 2000s or even

that early 2000s, even when I was playing.

It ain't that defense no more.

Their identity now is on the offensive side of the ball.

They have great defensive players in specific positions.

Kyle Hamilton, one of the best safeties in the game.

A $20 plus million dollar safety, a $20 plus million dollar corner, a $20 million linebacker, a $20 million defensive lineman.

Oh, no, bro.

I'm not finna let y'all off the hook like that.

Y'all gotta buck up.

Right, I see where you're going with it.

I see.

No, no, no, that's too much.

Matt Beaquay, Pro Bowler,

Lattimore, excuse me, not Lattimore.

The linebacker.

Roquan Smith, Pro Bowler.

Marlon Humphrey, Pro Bowler, Kyle, Hamilton, Pro Bowler.

Man, you got pro Pro Bowlers out of 11 starters?

No, man.

Come on.

Hell, I think Kyle Van Orn went to the Pro Bowl last year.

You got some great key offseason acquisitions.

Jai Alexander, if he can get back to his playing form and playing shape and what we're used to seeing him play at when he was in Green Bay during his good days, especially in Man to Man, he had some great battles that we watched throughout the years with him and Justin Jefferson.

So if he can get back to playing what he's used to playing, like you got Nate Wiggins, who's also good,

a highly talked about cornerback who showed flashes of brilliance and why he was drafted where he was.

So I think once they get back healthy, they'll be fine.

If someone could ride the ship, if Cooper Rush can ride the ship and

keep their head above water until Lamar comes back, I think they're going to be all right.

And

that's heavy on the think.

That's heavy on the think.

I hope they're going to be all right, Ocho.

I'm concerned.

I'm concerned.

Well, I'm not because I'm a Bengals fan.

So

first of all, you should be concerned.

You should be very concerned because it's not like your situation is much better.

And you're right.

You're right.

But the fact that we both in the same boat, it makes me feel better about the situation.

But you could play at it like, oh, man, you got rats.

Well, you got roaches.

So what's the difference?

Can't nobody get a good night's sleep.

We all getting crawled on.

Man,

what the hell you talking about, man?

Hey, that's a cool one.

Ocho, Jerry Jones, middle finger gesture would cost him $250,000.

The NFL is fining Jerry Jones a quarter of a million dollars for what Jerry claims was an accidental middle finger.

Jerry will appeal the fine.

This is how you know Jerry, because here's the thing, Ocho, we watched it at first.

If you go back and watch it in its entirety, Jerry does this at first.

He gives somebody a thumbs up.

Then he turns and gives the other finger and pointed at the guy like it's you.

So my thing is, Jerry, you might need to go get checked out because if you think you putting a thumb up and you putting the other finger, that's what a finger over up, two fingers over up, that's a problem.

Just go ahead and own it, Jerry.

You did it i get it because at the end of the day and and and and and and

no matter how much you money you make you can make ten dollars or you can make ten trillion at the end of the day you're still human yeah

and everybody everybody has a a breaking point everybody has something that can get them out of who they who they are at most times because

The way we are, that's not on us to sinners.

Because everybody has a mechanism that somebody can push into spring.

Oh yeah, absolutely.

And I don't know what that guy said.

I don't know if it was a guy or if it was a woman.

I don't know what it was.

But what Jerry did, if you go back and watch the video in its entirety, Jerry does this.

He like,

and then he flips somebody off and points down like, no, you, that's for you.

The thumbs up was for them.

That was for you.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I mean,

how you get an accidental middle finger?

Yeah.

And so that's like, oh, he should have just came back and said, I was trying to do the P sign, but the index finger wouldn't come up.

You know, what's funny when I think about it too,

as

Jerry Jones being as wealthy as he is, being the owner of a yacht, uh, myself, uh, as wealthy as I am, also being the owner of a mega yacht, I think about him being fine 250,000.

Uh, that's docking, that's docking money, that's gas money, that's fuel, so that's really not really affecting Jerry in any way.

No,

in the NFL, that's what it costs to fill up the the yacht, Ocho.

That's it.

Yeah, that's it.

And when the NFL finds players, it finds players to catch your attention.

It finds us to catch your attention to say, listen, you don't want to do that anymore because you don't want to have to pay this significant amount of money when you get fine.

But you're finding Jerry 250,000, man.

That ain't, man.

Come on now.

But if you base it on what happened with Mr.

Richardson, Jerry Richardson, the former Carolina Panthers owner, he got fine.

Rest his soul.

He got fined $250,000 for a similar gesture.

David Tapper, a couple of years ago, he threw water at a fan, it cost him 300,000.

So, we know the fine was coming.

We knew it was coming, and we knew it was going to be something around those lines.

Quarter of a million, 300,000,

damn,

I said 500.

I only said 500 because it was Jerry Jones, yeah, nah, nah.

Uh, oh, he sure enough would appeal then, but I'm trying to figure out who we're gonna go appeal to.

He appealing to the commissioner,

hey, nah, good, Jerry, get out of here.

250,

yeah, matter of of fact,

you know,

I'm going to be with Commish on Saturday and Sunday.

Oh, yeah, okay.

So I'm going to sit with him in the box, but then I get to be field side for the Broncos game.

So any message you want me to give some of your former Bronco players,

ain't nobody there.

They barely was born without playing.

Okay, okay, okay.

I'll be how old pass the day at 24?

Yeah, they're young.

They're young.

So

how confident are you that the Jets aren't going to win their first game over over in london against i'm not confident the jets gonna win their first game against the broncos i'm not confident at all are you sure no i'm not sure i mean it's not a uh uh uh uh

i mean it's it's sports it's pro sports it's not although people like to think it's scripted it's not so

anything can happen in sports and we've seen it uh but i feel i feel confident confident in the in the uh in the Broncos.

I do.

Okay.

Okay.

I'm just making sure because you know, once we go on nightcap that night, you won't be able to say foot or ball because the chances of the Ravens winning, whoever they're playing this week, it ain't likely.

You might go 0 for 2.

I'll be like, hey, Bronco Country, stand up.

That's what you're going to say?

Yep.

They might want to stand down.

And

let me tell you something.

I really feel good.

I really feel good about the Bengals playing the Packers.

I understand how good they are defensively, but you know, Joe Flacco with the Cleveland Browns, he did beat the Packers early in the season.

You know that, right?

Yeah.

Okay, I'm just throwing that out there.

That's just a little tidbit chat.

I want y'all to take with you.

So don't be surprised if the Bengals happen to win against the Packers, who are probably heavily favored.

Five, six sacks at least.

They're going to be on that joker like lions on a wildebeest.

All right.

All right.

I'm not telling you to go out there and gamble.

I'm just saying

I'm really wrong.

All right.

All right, oh, Ocho, we got our newest segment, player fade, presented by prize picks.

This is how it works.

The nightcap staff has made a lineup for the picks.

And whether we play their lineup or change or make some changes, choosing more or less, here it is.

The lineup change.

Saquon over

15 and a half receiving yards.

Well, absolutely over.

Okay, over, over.

Ooh, this is a good one, Ocho.

AJ Brown.

5.5 receptions.

So at least six receptions.

Oh,

that's tough, especially with the way they've been playing.

The man had a game for two catches for seven yards.

Obviously,

they also had that team meeting.

They haven't been able to run the ball well.

Do they come out and show something different than what we're used to seeing?

What are they playing at?

They playing in Philly or they playing in New York.

Let's see what that game is.

You know what the game is, Ocho?

No, I'm not sure.

Oh, it's in New York.

What do you think?

I don't know why I feel like they're going to make a concertive effort to get.

I'm going to go more.

I'm going to say more.

Yeah.

Jackson Dart over 35 rush yards.

Absolutely.

Have you seen him?

Boy, the boy dangerous with his legs.

Now, I'm not sure which way you want to go, but I'm going over 35.

Because anytime he goes through that progression and he don't see nothing and he see daylight, he coming out the back door every time.

I done seen it too much, too early, already.

All right, I'm going to go more.

If it don't pan out, that's all your fault.

Download the app today.

Use code Shannon to get $50 in lineups after you play your first $5 lineup.

Remember, download the app today.

Use code Shannon to get $50 in lineups after you play your first $5 lineup.

It's good to be right.

Oh, Joe, what many fans thought would be LeBron's long-awaited retirement announcement turned out to be just an ad, and it left fans furious.

According to TMZ, Andy Garcia, who is a 29-year-old Laker fan, is suing the King in a small claims court for fraud, deception, misrepresentation, and any and all legal recovery.

Garcia was apparently one of those people that thought LeBron was hanging up the sneakers and purchased two tickets March 31st, 2026, a game between the Lakers and the Cavs.

Due to the significance of LeBron playing against his former team, Garcia tickets spiked to $856.

But now the value of the tickets had plummeted after the announcement.

I know,

i shouldn't say i know

but y'all thought that man was going to make that announcement lord have mercy

man anybody would anybody i didn't know what he was going to do oh joe but i knew he wasn't going to make no retirement announcement

when we talked about it on the show right and we said there was a decision coming up what's the first thing i said there's something coming out i just don't know what it is

either it was something with nike I didn't even know it was going to be alcohol.

I thought it was going to be a shoe.

I thought it was going to be something to do with clothing.

I thought it was going to be something having to do with a new brand that he's attached to.

That's all.

I could have told you that.

I just didn't know exactly what it was.

I knew damn well if it had been on goddamn retirement, but he's not leaving the NBA until Bryce gets there.

You think so?

Yeah, hell yeah.

Oh no,

I don't think, I don't think he's retiring after this year.

I don't.

I don't.

I mean, it's hard, hard to walk away when you're playing at such a high level.

You know, he strikes me as a guy that's going to play till the wheels fall off.

And the wheels are not,

has it fallen off yet?

Not even close.

Right.

Not even close.

Year 21, year 22.

You're averaging 24.

What is the 24, 8.

Yeah.

24, 7.8, 8.2.

So he's almost 25 points a game.

Shooting 51% from the floor, shot 38% from the three.

He ain't going nowhere, man.

Higher for what?

Still putting up numbers like that.

I don't care if you're 42, 55, 57, 60.

If you're still putting up numbers like that and being productive and an important part of the offense and still being as efficient as he is this long into his career, who's thinking about retirement?

You know when the caller quits.

Your body tells you when to stop.

Your numbers, the decline, it tells you when to stop.

Father Time tells you when to stop.

Father Time hasn't caught up to him yet.

Can he do some of the things he did in his younger days?

No, obviously not.

But you evolve.

You evolve in other areas where you don't.

So he's shooting the three ball.

No,

can you still get to the basket?

Yes.

Can he still finish with the best of them?

Yes.

But it's harder for him to do it consistently.

So now he's gotten the three ball.

He said he worked on catch and shoot because he's going to be playing off the ball even more this year with Luca and Austin Reeves on the court.

So he needs to be at a catch and shoot.

The one thing you can say about him is that when he decides that, you know what, there's a,

I want to work on an element of my game, he wanted to get better at posting up.

He goes down to Houston, work with a Kim Elijah one, can play with his back to the basket.

He got that fault, that fadeaway.

He's always been able to put his head down and get to the basket, finish at the rim.

Then, hey, I was like, you know what?

I need to get this three ball because I see where this is headed.

This thing is headed that you're going to need to be able to shoot the three.

And you see, now everybody can shoot shoot the three yeah you got to stretch four you got to stretch five you got to stretch this everybody can shoot the three and he know he knew in order for him to have longevity guess what i need to be able to shoot the three too yeah it is so funny too when you think about it you look at players in nba and now that i've i've become a little bit more knowledgeable of it

you have players like lebron and it's a testament to his greatness is as he got older he's evolved and gotten better areas of his game yeah so he play as long as he's played You know, he's one of the few.

Now he's made himself into an efficient three-level scorer, not just at the mid-range, not just in the paint, being able to play with his back to the basket or being able to drive at will when he chooses and wants to, but now being able to be efficient from three points, shooting 31% from three.

Like, come on, man.

Yeah, he.

But I'm sorry, bro, that you thought that man was going to make that announcement.

Hey,

the judge is going to toss that out, ain't he?

I don't know what the judge is going to do, but I tell you what, I think the thing is, he's going to have control over it.

It's going to be a situation where he could control it, it's going to be uh released on his platform, right?

That's what it's going to be.

LeBron's going to control it, LeBron's going to control it, yeah, just like he did with the decision, and I don't have a problem with that.

So, I don't want y'all, man, killing you, uh, uh, uh, Neff.

No,

LeBron's just going to control what's when he does it, how he does it, it, where he does it.

And I'm fine with that.

I think

he's earned the right

to like make the announcement when he wants to,

how he wants to, where he wants to, and, you know, what he wants to say.

And everybody's, you know, some will be happy, some will be disappointed.

I myself personally would be disappointed because I think he's playing on a high level.

I like guys, you know, go out when you want to.

That's his legacy.

Man, he destroyed his legacy.

It's his.

He built it.

And the funny thing about it, not only go out when you want to, to but go out the right way

go out the right way because if you play how many games uh nba season 82 82.

all 82 games need to be

every time the same way kobe went out every every every game it needs to be a standing ovation at every game understanding it's his last time being on that court wherever he plays but see the difference is with kobe uh kobe the injuries have started to rob kobe yeah he tore his achilles late he tore his labrum late he started to have the injuries that started to mount up.

Now, LeBron is dealing with a nerve irritation in his glute.

And so we don't know.

I'm always leery of guys limping into the season because you limp out of the season.

But

LeBron did not have the injuries that Kobe had.

LeBron is still regarded as a top 10 player.

Kobe was not a top 10 player at the tail end of his career.

He just wasn't.

And that's okay.

That doesn't take away from what he was able to accomplish because he was phenomenal.

And we know that.

But Kobe was not a top 10 player.

LeBron was still a top 10 player.

He did have a historic game, even though he had 60.

It took him 50 shots, but he had 60 points.

And it was Vega Beauty to watch.

I watched it from start to finish.

And if somebody would have told me that,

first of all, to shoot 50 times and then have 60 points, because that's a lot of shots.

Ain't a whole lot of people that ever

shot the ball 50 times.

Maybe Kobe Wilked

is probably the only ones that I can think of at the top of my head that's ever shot that many times.

Right.

But he was phenomenal.

But LeBron is going to be

a little bit more buttoned up.

You'll probably just hear something.

It starts leaking out.

LeBron is, there's rumblings that LeBron, this might be it for LeBron.

He'll have, you know, a little car.

He's scheduled a news conference for something.

Now, he's either going to

retire news conference or he's going to go somewhere else.

The question is, does he want to go somewhere else and play another year or two, whatever the case may be?

Maybe the Lakers want him back because he's still a draw.

I can tell you where he's going to go.

How many years has Bryce had before he could leave too, right?

No, he can come after

college.

You can come out at basketball.

You can come out after one.

Yeah.

I'm telling you.

I'm telling you what I know.

I'm not telling you what I heard.

I'm telling you what I know.

I want to be able to play with both of my sons in the NBA, and it's going to happen.

Watch.

All right, we're going to get you guys out of here on this.

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

It's time for Q and A.

Damn, I got to take this long-ass flight, man.

Shit.

Dr.

Frankie L.

Bellamy.

Hey, Fam.

Boy, that was the longest.

Boy, I don't know what y'all got going on tonight, Graphic.

But anyway, Dr.

Frankie L.

Bellamy, hey, Fam, is pride more dangerous when you win or when you're losing?

Love y'all.

Losing reveals the character.

Because everybody, I look,

AJ is a very unique individual.

I've never seen anybody complain like this when you're winning.

I've never seen it.

Normally, you lose.

And people understand that.

It's kind of like with, like, I give you a pride example.

Like, T.O., Ocho.

You know, you close to T.O., but you saw when T.O., T.O.

was fighting as long as they're winning.

Oh, yeah.

It was like when you started to lose and he had Randy on the other side, or he had another receiver, and they're going off.

He's like, My man, give me a chance to do that, right?

Yeah, yeah.

Um,

normally, normally, normally, not all, there's no such thing as all or every

winning will mask

winning, is a great deodorant

because there are a lot of issues because people used to be afraid, oh, you're to cause to cause commotion when you're winning.

Oh, yeah, absolutely, like, what, bro?

Boy, we're winning, go sit down somewhere.

They just say, well,

we're winning, but we ain't winning how I think we should win.

We should be winning by 15, 20 points.

If y'all give me the ball, we could be winning by that.

Hey, listen,

it's so funny.

It reminds me.

You know what?

I'm going to say that.

I'm going to say that.

Go ahead.

I'm going to say that.

Say that for a later date.

Okay.

VPN, who's better?

Jake Browning or Easton Stick?

Which is heavier, a ton of bricks or a ton of feathers.

Oh, that's a good one.

Sheldon Pope, nightcap versus returning the cash money versus no limit.

Who you have taken this versus?

Hey, that's gonna be a good versus, especially if the young folks probably ain't gonna understand none of it.

But they're gonna bring back some great memories.

Oh, boy, that fade, that boy, the A.

That's gonna be bring back some great memories.

Cash money had a Juvie, BG, Turk, Wayne.

But Cash Money had them no limit soldiers.

Ah, yeah, No Limit had a nice run, too.

Now, yeah, for sure.

With them tanks, yeah.

Yeah, C Murder, Silk the Shocker, Mia X.

I mean, the list goes on.

Hey, did uh

is uh is uh

what's his guy name, Ocho?

Uh,

uh,

Danger.

Mystical.

Is he out?

I think Mystical

behind that wall.

No, he had got out.

He went back.

Yeah.

Yeah, he went back, Ocho.

So

we ain't going to have all of them.

Yeah.

I mean, listen, they just like the Ravens.

Man, stop hating.

They got it full of strength.

I'm just saying.

Triple X Cop sanded in Ocho line.

What he really wants to say with the number four pick in the 2026 draft,

the Cincinnati Bengals select.

Ocho, these jokes until he pay up.

Pay, Ocho.

Talk that ish podcast.

Ocho got blank man shirt on.

They still talk about my shirt.

Yeah.

I mean,

go ahead, Ocho.

I'm confused.

Why?

Everybody making it's a flannel.

I'm in New York.

It's like cold it's like you know 56 degrees i got you from h m it went number 20

i mean come on y'all

talk about it look like a youth pastor

look like an sa

yeah i mean you know i mean i can see you in a six pole yeah okay hey oh yeah i feel their homies

will say oh is it possible that aj brown is trying to seize the moment knowing the other receivers aren't at full strength i mean, Devontae is fine.

I mean, who is it Dobson?

I'm trying to figure out who else?

Johan Dawson is there.

Devontae.

Devontae came out and said the same thing, huh?

He came out and said the same thing.

He's saying frustrations.

Yeah.

He said the same thing last week.

So, I mean, a lot of people are like, oh, look at Devontae Smith being a professional.

No,

he came out and said the same thing, voicing his frustrates because he's a little irritated too about the lack of.

so yeah i mean they don't pace they don't pace ocho to have like 600 yards

god damn

oof

ts car washing detail service bingles should have got russ

i think russ price tag is a little bit much for them yep black old

isn't russ like 14 million dollars yep one year 14 so that's and you would have to pick that up and so so that's more than they, the Bingles ain't trying to stomach that.

Hey said, Ocho looks like an underpaid ranch hand at the

Hidden Valley Farms.

Brad Bird said the Bongles acted like trading for James would bankrupt their franchise.

Now when Grandpa Flacco gets fossilized behind that old line, who will be hosting the wake?

Browns or Bingles?

Y'all keep laughing.

Keep them jokes flying.

We'll see what happens next next sunday when we get on nightcap and we come home with that victory uh james wilson said hey unc i'm from sparta you go to hancock or you went to green county where you go bro much love and respect i heard you mention hancock on undisputed one time have you ever had family in sparta and can you guys wish my wife a happy birthday 10-9 yes james we absolutely can wish your wife happy birthday happy birthday hopefully you guys are going to do something special you're going to take out for a great dinner i don't know what's in sparta i've never been to sparta but I know where Sparta is.

Seven, good, oh y'all.

Oh, I think I got a feeling, oh, y'all, I think in the next two years, I'm gonna get married, oh, yo.

There we go.

Now we're talking, huh?

Listen, now we now listen.

Now we're getting juicy with it.

This is the type of stuff I want to hear.

This is the fact that.

Man, I don't need no talk from you, Jordan.

Huh?

Listen, this is.

talking.

See, I think the fact that I have found a good, solid foundation and I'm building on something good.

I think you're picking up what I'm putting down.

You're willing to follow suit.

Yep.

I see, I like where you're going.

Now, what we can do, huh?

Is what we can do is I could wait two more years because I was getting ready to do it, you know, in the offseason.

I can wait two more years.

You have a double one?

We can have a dual wedding.

Because right now, Ocho, you might have to fund the whole thing.

I'm just saying, Ocho.

I'm just saying, Ocho.

I'm going to keep it fine.

I'm going to keep it foul while with you now.

I'm just saying.

I'm just saying now, you know, little boy, down to the look, right now, down to the look.

Listen, I think, listen, in two years, and listen, not even two, probably another one, we're going to be all right.

We're going to be good.

Gonna do the right thing, you know?

Yeah, yeah,

we're gonna be all right because listen, when the product is too good, it sells itself even

with the mishaps, even the mistake.

It just, it's too good.

You have no choice.

The cream always rises to the top.

But I like that.

I like that dude wedding.

I like that thought.

I love that thought.

Plain clothes D said, Chad's dressed like CJ from Grand Theft Auto.

Casey Taylor said, Uh, Ocho, if they made the longest yard three with Adam Sandler, if you were asked to join a decent-sized role, would you?

Are there any specific WWE NFL stars you would want in the movie as well?

Garage.

I need to play a detective.

I can't do nothing physical right now.

I could,

but I like a detective.

I need to, you know what?

I want to play a role.

I need to be a detective.

I need to be a minister or something like that, Ocho.

Okay, I like that.

I like that.

I like the minister because because they they they they can get they can write you a good script man you could yeah man and you know i could i could bring that word to them now yeah yeah i'll bring that word now oh yeah

Yes, sir.

And let the Lord open up the windows of heaven and pour out a blessing that you will not be able to receive fully.

Now, what I'm doing,

come see me.

Come on now.

Now, when I pass the plate around, don't put no change in it.

God don't like noise.

He's a quiet God.

I'm just saying, don't you?

Come on, Joe.

I'm just saying, he'll quiet God.

He don't like noise.

He don't like noise.

You're saying.

Man, come on, man.

These jokes, they write themselves.

I told y'all working on my stand-up.

Quake said he's going to let me get two minutes on one of his shows.

I'm good.

Samuel LeBron said, uh,

remember, like it was yesterday, got him cussing up a storm.

Who?

who

ocho fans uh new jersey say el chapo ocho i like that i like el chapo is shorty yeah yeah yeah i'm not sure

so i mean i think he is like five four

you know you know i got a picture with chapo huh you do yeah yeah i don't know i don't get in trouble for showing that do i

no i mean I mean, a lot of people got pictures with what you call them,

with people that, you know, I mean, people had people do Al Capone and so forth and so on.

So, yeah.

Philly talk with PA.

Y'all missing the point.

Offensive coordinator, Kevin Petullo, has been terrible.

Eagles have had most success with Hurts Calls's own plays.

Also, doesn't call his own plays.

Why do people keep saying that?

I guess I don't know.

Don't start me to lying ocho

don't start me lying uh look you're right i mean um and but we saw this when uh uh um gannon and steichen when they left the offense took a dip the defense took a dip uh you saw last year fanjo is still there but uh

kellen moore got the head job at new orleans Kellen Moore is a damn good offensive coordinator.

He's a very good offensive coordinator.

He's a very good play caller.

I mean, I'm sure, you know, I'm surprised he didn't get the job.

He didn't.

Well,

Mike McCarthy undercut him and got him up out of Dallas.

Talking about he was calling all those past plays and then come to find out he called more past plays than Kelly Moore did, but that's neither here nor there.

Finns, New Jersey said, Chad Chad, the lumberjack.

Yeah, call me Paul Bunyan.

All I need now is a big blue ox.

Wolf had facts that, oh, I tried to fly Spirit.

A lady tried to fight me.

Her service dog tried to bite me, and there was three screaming babies.

I don't know how you do it.

I saw the lady today.

Did y'all see that video where the lady today was trying to hold up the plane because her daughter was in the back and she wanted the people to move out the way so her daughter could walk up to the front?

Yes, you're in the middle of the plane, Ocho.

What airline was that?

Spirit.

Okay.

Saucy D, just want to say shout out to AJ Wilson and my Aces.

We one win away from another another WNBA chip.

Nah, did the Aces win tonight?

Yeah, they won.

They up 3-0.

They came back and won?

Yeah, they won.

They up 3-0.

You lying.

Oh, Joe, they was down 11.

Yeah, I promise you they won.

Damn.

I ain't going to lie to you.

Okay, lose this next game and then come back so I can see y'all play in Las Vegas.

Man, man.

Man, I know, but who did it?

Well, I know Asia.

Asia probably had like 40, but I know my girl, what my girl Chelsea do?

What my girl Chelsea Gray do?

The Asians came back and won.

Asia hit a buzzer, a buzzer beat them.

Oh, they were winning, so 26 with a nine.

Oh, they had a big lead.

Asia had 34.

Jackie Young.

Okay, Chelsea had

11.

Jewel Lloyd, that's what

put it on y'all

when I was coaching at

the Ruffles game.

Yeah.

Oh, she had 16.

Yeah, Jewel can play.

She can ball.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

We're going to get this one.

We're going to get this one.

I think this.

I know we're going to end.

We're going to be about to end.

But I think if Asia Wilson wins this championship and she's finals MVP, which I believe she will, it's going to be tough because Jackie Young has been sensational.

Yeah.

Because she dropped 21 and a quarter, but

with four MVPs, three defensive players a year, three championships, two finals MVPs,

she's been a blogs leader.

She's been a reba.

I don't know what you

look, and look, I go back to the women's game.

I remember they had the first

women's tournament with LaTeX one.

And Kim Mulky was a starting point guard.

Yeah, I remember that.

Beat Cheney.

I remember they beat Cheney State.

Yeah, I'll give him all that.

AJ Wilson wins this championship.

Leave it alone.

Go argue with the wall.

You're not arguing with me.

She wins this championship.

She's the greatest woman player ever.

I don't know.

I mean, I don't know what else to say.

Theoretically, she should have five because I thought, look, and Stewie, I love Stewie too.

Stewie is phenomenal.

But

Asia, Lord, have mercy.

She's special.

I mean, she get, and she does it on both ends, Ocho.

Yeah, and on defense, too.

She does it on both ends.

Like I said, I mean, she's just as good offensively as she is defensively.

She can steal the ball.

She can block shots.

She can rebound.

Obviously, she can put the ball in the basket.

Led the league in score in back-to-back years, had the highest scoring average in WNBA history.

Scored the most points in a single season in NBA history.

WNBA history.

And I look, look, I get Ma.

But you got to realize, yeah, Ma played, I think, seven, eight years.

You got to realize she ain't done.

Y'all do realize this woman could have, she could win another two, three MVPs.

She could win another two, three championships.

I'm going to get to it now.

I'm going to get to it now.

Official church.

Ocho look like a substitute gym teacher.

Emma Gregg says, Shea Ocho, can y'all shout my daughter out, Lillian Emmy?

She can't sleep, and it's a school night.

So we both watch it.

Yes, we can.

Lily, Emmy.

How you doing?

Emma.

My bad.

Emma.

Ash, get out of my ear.

Emitation.

I'm supposed to stay up watching and relate.

I don't know if you're on the West Coast or the East Coast, but if it's on the East Coast, you up really, really late.

I guess you ain't going to school tomorrow, huh, Emmy?

Like, nah, I'm good.

I'm going to stay up with dad.

Boy,

Greg, you're going to get in trouble, man.

Mom's going to find out that Emmy was up.

Hey, it ain't going to be here to get up in the morning.

Oh, yeah.

You know what?

Ocho and I ain't had nothing to do with that.

I said, I told her to put that baby to bed.

I got to throw that blade up.

I got to get that heat up off me.
