- 0:15Speaker 2: We have asked Nicole.
- 0:16Speaker 4: Welcome, Hello, Hello, and we have Cam Newton welcome back.
- 0:24Speaker 1: Where are you gonna go to? I'm trying to tell
- 0:26Speaker 1: you we can go both ways.
- 0:29Speaker 3: Boy, all right, where which way do you want to go?
- 0:34Speaker 3: Boat Jackson's a b E T Show one O six
- 0:38Speaker 3: and sports.
- 0:39Speaker 2: Let's start.
- 0:39Speaker 3: Let's start with Travis Hunter. Since you already said his
- 0:41Speaker 3: name first and jumped out.
- 0:42Speaker 2: The box, what's your thoughts?
- 0:44Speaker 1: Love him? Travis Hunter came through my C one n
- 0:48Speaker 1: UH program, which is an all star team where I
- 0:50Speaker 1: use football as a way to show kids, our young athletes,
- 0:58Speaker 1: that you can change your life. Travis Hunter is a
- 1:02Speaker 1: person that does not get respected enough because he has
- 1:06Speaker 1: not did anything wrong. He's been exceptional on a football field,
- 1:11Speaker 1: and yet we couldn't find no dirt on him, so
- 1:14Speaker 1: we have to attack somebody close to him. Never had
- 1:18Speaker 1: a duy, not a domestic from what I've heard, and
- 1:22Speaker 1: seen and seen in firsthand. He's an unbelievable person. That's
- 1:26Speaker 1: all he does. And I was rocking with Travis when
- 1:30Speaker 1: his smile wasn't even you know what I mean, and
- 1:34Speaker 1: so much so, like I said, his younger brother Travis
- 1:38Speaker 1: plays on my team now. And this is this is
- 1:42Speaker 1: my way of philanthropic initiatives where yeah, a lot of
- 1:46Speaker 1: people can give back in their own perspective and respective ways.
- 1:50Speaker 1: But for me, I use a game of football to say, hey, bro,
- 1:53Speaker 1: you don't gotta rob, You ain't gotta steal, you ain't
- 1:55Speaker 1: gotta you know, seal drugs. Like Bro, this pig skin
- 1:58Speaker 1: right here can take you places. Has gotten me everywhere
- 2:02Speaker 1: that I ever wanted. And when I've seen Travis at
- 2:06Speaker 1: his age, to see how he has morphed into the individual. Now,
- 2:09Speaker 1: of course, everybody is entitled to their own opinion about
- 2:12Speaker 1: who he is or he a sucker he this, or
- 2:14Speaker 1: that he's married, he has a family. That was what
- 2:18Speaker 1: a couple of goals was supposed to be. I should
- 2:20Speaker 1: take a page out of his book, but we won't
- 2:23Speaker 1: get to that.
- 2:25Speaker 2: He said that.
- 2:26Speaker 5: Because he's capping like he knows exactly where he stands
- 2:30Speaker 5: when he comes to that.
- 2:32Speaker 4: He made it very clear. He's made it clear in
- 2:34Speaker 4: the last twenty four hours. But I don't know.
- 2:38Speaker 3: They had a conversation about that earlier, teaching me new tricks,
- 2:40Speaker 3: maybe about dog new tricks. We had a conversation about
- 2:45Speaker 3: learning your significant others body counting names. Right, Oh no,
- 2:49Speaker 3: But this is the thing.
- 2:55Speaker 4: I want to know that I need.
- 2:57Speaker 2: To hear the same. Indie Street.
- 3:06Speaker 4: Is where I think I agree and disagree.
- 3:08Speaker 5: Now, if it is a situation where I'll use canvases,
- 3:11Speaker 5: since you sitting next to me, this is just an example.
- 3:21Speaker 1: Attention to one on six and sporting John.
- 3:26Speaker 5: John Doe has a certain profession and there is a
- 3:29Speaker 5: possibility that John Doe was going to run into Jim
- 3:32Speaker 5: Doe because they're in the same world.
- 3:35Speaker 4: Then yes, I feel like.
- 3:36Speaker 5: That is something that you need to vocalize and you
- 3:39Speaker 5: need to be honest about, because you never want your
- 3:41Speaker 5: person to walk into a room and everyone's on the
- 3:44Speaker 5: joke except for that person.
- 3:46Speaker 3: You're about the interview. Your man's X one. He popped down.
- 3:49Speaker 3: You didn't know he got a.
- 3:54Speaker 1: Laughing.
- 3:55Speaker 2: She's smiling.
- 3:56Speaker 5: I'm saying, like, if you're gonna pass, there's a possibility
- 4:00Speaker 5: with someone, then yes, I think that that should be vocalized.
- 4:03Speaker 5: But if it's like you're a hometown you know, crush
- 4:08Speaker 5: and they're never gonna cs like he don't need to
- 4:09Speaker 5: know that.
- 4:10Speaker 4: See, that's none of your business things to get close
- 4:12Speaker 4: to the chest.
- 4:13Speaker 6: But but but if that's if that's your men, y'all together,
- 4:15Speaker 6: y'all building like real life at our ages that we're doing,
- 4:18Speaker 6: you got to take him back to your hometown at
- 4:20Speaker 6: some point. So I think it's certain people, certain places
- 4:23Speaker 6: at certain times. Right, So everybody may be a bit insane,
- 4:27Speaker 6: but if you know, okay, babe, look we're going back
- 4:28Speaker 6: to my homecoming certain places a certain times. So if
- 4:35Speaker 6: you're taking your person you love to wherever, I think
- 4:38Speaker 6: it's just a conversation of like, in this part of
- 4:40Speaker 6: my life, here was a person that may have been
- 4:41Speaker 6: important because I especially if you know, you could run
- 4:44Speaker 6: into them because you're in these places all the time.
- 4:46Speaker 4: He's not. I will say this.
- 4:48Speaker 5: I recently went to somebody that I'm like getting to
- 4:53Speaker 5: know his hometown and he didn't point out and give
- 4:56Speaker 5: me names, nothing like that. He basically said, like we're
- 4:58Speaker 5: walking into this party, there are going to be some
- 4:59Speaker 5: people there that I dated and school.
- 5:01Speaker 1: Whatever you look.
- 5:03Speaker 5: It wasn't like this person this is her name it
- 5:05Speaker 5: it was just like you on your piece and something
- 5:15Speaker 5: to you and something to yourself, Like your person doesn't
- 5:17Speaker 5: know has to know about everything you did before the
- 5:20Speaker 5: wall you know.
- 5:20Speaker 4: Was out with you now, like that should be enough.
- 5:22Speaker 6: I think everything is like not realistic. You can't know
- 5:25Speaker 6: every single thing. Yeah, but certain things like if I
- 5:28Speaker 6: were walking in that party, we ain't gonna do like
- 5:30Speaker 6: an Instagram run through, but like we need to have
- 5:32Speaker 6: a conversation of like, okay, do you still speak to
- 5:34Speaker 6: these people? Is this woman gonna walk up to me
- 5:36Speaker 6: and like, yes, your conversation with me, Like what's happening?
- 5:40Speaker 5: Yeah, if you're gonna be in proximity, whether it's one off,
- 5:43Speaker 5: whether it's given.
- 5:46Speaker 1: That you don't need to know, how are you still talking?
- 5:51Speaker 1: The simple question is I just want to know your list.
- 5:54Speaker 1: I don't care.
- 5:55Speaker 2: One still you still smashed my short.
- 6:00Speaker 1: One or ten off, it still.
- 6:02Speaker 5: Counts somebody you ten years ago, my boys and I
- 6:11Speaker 5: hit something. That's why you lead business.
- 6:13Speaker 1: Okay, that's why you lead with everything. So you don't
- 6:17Speaker 1: mess up a vibe because you're trying to explain, Hey,
- 6:21Speaker 1: before we go in here, there's a chance that DJ No,
- 6:29Speaker 1: that's that's too And this is the thing that we
- 6:32Speaker 1: all have to understand. What works for me may not
- 6:35Speaker 1: work for you. Cinderella's shoe was fit for Cinderella. My
- 6:39Speaker 1: name is Cam Newton. I can't put on Cinderella sho
- 6:43Speaker 1: So that's cool. So I'm like, yo, we we we
- 6:45Speaker 1: get into this. That will never be me And I
- 6:49Speaker 1: love going on them comments and hitting your profile and
- 6:52Speaker 1: realize I'm like, baby.
- 6:54Speaker 4: You were.
- 6:59Speaker 1: Damn you have more posts than followers. There's nothing that
- 7:03Speaker 1: we can relate to. Yeah, I appreciate your insight. I
- 7:07Speaker 1: needed that impression.
- 7:10Speaker 2: So this show is more than sports.
- 7:16Speaker 7: Your Turks and Cagos comment right, like all you don't
- 7:18Speaker 7: need to know about the Turk. Look, I'm gonna tell
- 7:20Speaker 7: you I'm sorry right now. My husband wanted to know
- 7:23Speaker 7: if I ever had a one night stand. You know
- 7:24Speaker 7: what I'm saying, save Vancis that night in Turks and cakeos.
- 7:29Speaker 7: Yeah yeah, babe, one one night I did go, you know,
- 7:31Speaker 7: me and my cousin certain cakes and you know I
- 7:34Speaker 7: smashed the nigga?
- 7:35Speaker 4: Was I g profile phone number?
- 7:38Speaker 1: Like?
- 7:40Speaker 4: Something said a lot of.
- 7:42Speaker 1: Times, it's not even about what it is more so
- 7:47Speaker 1: than are you willing to tell me? Because now it's
- 7:51Speaker 1: a deeper rooted issue. If you're going to go to
- 7:55Speaker 1: hell with this information, what what else are you willing
- 7:59Speaker 1: to to keep? Or what do you get to decide
- 8:03Speaker 1: what's worth telling me or not? If I'm asking you,
- 8:05Speaker 1: what I deem is extremely surface level and extremely innocent
- 8:10Speaker 1: because I'm not judging. I'm happy, baby, I'm not going nowhere.
- 8:14Speaker 1: I already know before me there was somebody or somebody's
- 8:18Speaker 1: let's talk about it. I believe in a relationship there
- 8:20Speaker 1: should not be anything that's off limits. That's just me
- 8:24Speaker 1: like so much so that it's like, yo, nah, I
- 8:27Speaker 1: ain't gonna go there. But it's certain things that I think,
- 8:31Speaker 1: like you can't really truly be in love with the
- 8:34Speaker 1: person if you don't really truly know a person. And
- 8:38Speaker 1: that's me. And like I said, Cinderella shoe is for Cinderella,
- 8:42Speaker 1: it's not mine. Camshoe is not built for Cinderella. I
- 8:46Speaker 1: look at a lot of these things where it's like, yo,
- 8:49Speaker 1: she gonna tell me, hey babe, I have some money
- 8:53Speaker 1: right here, Hey babe, I'm seeing a transaction on my car.
- 8:56Speaker 1: Hey babe, man, I'm looking for tell me where that.
- 9:00Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, but that's a significant thing. You don't think
- 9:04Speaker 5: there's a difference between significant.
- 9:06Speaker 1: You don't get to judge. You don't get to judge that.
- 9:09Speaker 7: Did you give her your lists, your addresses, faces, all
- 9:14Speaker 7: that you see.
- 9:15Speaker 1: You're you're, you're you're thinking about the initial question, but
- 9:19Speaker 1: not the reasoning behind the question. If you're willing to
- 9:22Speaker 1: go over and beyond and say, hey, I did this,
- 9:25Speaker 1: I did that, I did that, I did that. I'm
- 9:26Speaker 1: not gonna say how many times that's like we're talking
- 9:29Speaker 1: about it. I just really want to know if you're
- 9:32Speaker 1: willing to open up and answer the question, because, like
- 9:36Speaker 1: I said, it's a deeper rooted issue that Hey, we
- 9:40Speaker 1: in some real stuff. Tell me what you did. Somebody
- 9:43Speaker 1: told me that they seen this, or my mama said
- 9:47Speaker 1: that you responded like this. That's not to say that
- 9:50Speaker 1: my mom is not lying, but you can stretch your
- 9:54Speaker 1: truth or your a vantage point about a certain situation.
- 9:56Speaker 1: Tell me what happened.
- 9:58Speaker 2: So let's go back. How did this show come to
- 9:59Speaker 2: get that? Let's just break down.
- 10:05Speaker 1: Because she ain't gonna let done this.
- 10:08Speaker 4: For another twenty minutes. That's while we were waiting.
- 10:11Speaker 2: This is more than just sports. So how did y'all
- 10:12Speaker 2: get together to do the show?
- 10:14Speaker 4: It kind of just happened. I mean, I don't know.
- 10:17Speaker 4: Our experience was a little bit different, or maybe it
- 10:19Speaker 4: was the same.
- 10:20Speaker 5: So I was in the middle of the NBA playoffs,
- 10:21Speaker 5: so I also worked for CBS Sports, and I got
- 10:24Speaker 5: a call that they were doing castings and kind of
- 10:29Speaker 5: test shoots pairings in LA. Last minute, can you fly
- 10:33Speaker 5: to l A kind of can't in the middle of
- 10:34Speaker 5: the playoffs, like big deal, can't move Cam and I
- 10:37Speaker 5: did hours virtually he was actually in LA and met
- 10:40Speaker 5: with a whole list of people from so many guys
- 10:43Speaker 5: that we know and women that we know that doing
- 10:46Speaker 5: their things in individual industries, and Cam and I even
- 10:51Speaker 5: virtually just had a chemistry that was just drastically different
- 10:54Speaker 5: than what he had with anyone when he was in LA,
- 10:57Speaker 5: and obviously he can speak to that more. And it
- 11:00Speaker 5: just kind of snowballed from there, and the whole process
- 11:02Speaker 5: was announced the BT Awards and then it was just
- 11:05Speaker 5: kind of like a waiting game until this point. And
- 11:07Speaker 5: now we're in the eleventh I we're really excited, but Yeah,
- 11:11Speaker 5: your situation in LA obviously was different than mine.
- 11:14Speaker 4: Virtually.
- 11:17Speaker 1: It was a process and it was something that I
- 11:21Speaker 1: was new to because typically it's we want you for this,
- 11:26Speaker 1: going about business now in this phase of my life,
- 11:30Speaker 1: it's something that I will always remember and everything that
- 11:34Speaker 1: you do is earned nobody this entitled mentality of like man,
- 11:40Speaker 1: I'm cam Newton, first pig, Heisman Trophy winner, like MVP.
- 11:44Speaker 1: Like man, no, I'm nobody caring about that. Now, it's
- 11:47Speaker 1: like how you can position yourself and are you qualified
- 11:49Speaker 1: to have this? Are you talented enough to have this?
- 11:52Speaker 1: Can you far exceed just football and tap into the
- 11:58Speaker 1: unknown of the culture? Hey, can you talk politics? If
- 12:01Speaker 1: you had the opportunity to, Hey can you talk about
- 12:04Speaker 1: home goods? Can you talk about fashion? Can you talk
- 12:06Speaker 1: about lifestyle things? And when you start to really dive
- 12:11Speaker 1: into hey, this is something that I really want to
- 12:15Speaker 1: do and take serious, you have to go out on
- 12:18Speaker 1: the limb and take sacrifices, right, So yeah, I had
- 12:21Speaker 1: to prove went to LA. Ashley obviously was one of
- 12:26Speaker 1: the first persons.
- 12:28Speaker 3: Yeah, but so crazy, we're taking that clip, we're taking that,
- 12:36Speaker 3: we're taking that clip ahead.
- 12:38Speaker 1: And you know, we had we had that as something
- 12:42Speaker 1: where okay, that was a good icebreaker. It was probably
- 12:47Speaker 1: fifteen to twenty minutes, and that's when my day kind
- 12:50Speaker 1: of started. I think, you know, a question was posed
- 12:54Speaker 1: to me and I often asked, like what's my superpower?
- 12:58Speaker 1: And some would say probably football, but I think really
- 13:01Speaker 1: for me, I've never met a stranger like I really
- 13:04Speaker 1: genuinely talk, like talking and really hearing people out. I
- 13:08Speaker 1: went to school studied sociology, so I took a lot
- 13:12Speaker 1: of psychology classes as well and didn't really know how
- 13:15Speaker 1: much of a nerd that I really was and doing
- 13:18Speaker 1: it my way. It wasn't that you know, no, bro,
- 13:21Speaker 1: I'm from Atlanta, you know Twain, you feel like nah,
- 13:24Speaker 1: It's like nah, I can really you know, learn a
- 13:28Speaker 1: thing or two and that has helped me in places
- 13:31Speaker 1: and positions. So when you see me on Funky Friday
- 13:34Speaker 1: fourth one, now you know with you know Ashley in
- 13:37Speaker 1: one or six and sports, this will bring out a
- 13:39Speaker 1: different element of what we're used to seeing Cam Newton.
- 13:42Speaker 3: So you guys are gonna be discussing everything not just sports,
- 13:45Speaker 3: not just the games, but also everything to do with it.
- 13:47Speaker 3: It's like, for instance, Russell Wilson, right, conversation not only
- 13:51Speaker 3: about him playing in for the Giants and the Giants
- 13:53Speaker 3: thinking it up, but also Giants and my team. By
- 13:55Speaker 3: the way, also, you know the conversation that said he
- 13:58Speaker 3: was a sim and he loves his girl too.
- 14:01Speaker 2: He loves his wife too much. So we'll get your feedback,
- 14:03Speaker 2: so break it down.
- 14:05Speaker 4: I mean, what's wrong with loving your wife too?
- 14:08Speaker 1: Right? You know what I mean?
- 14:10Speaker 5: I think Russell Wilson and we were kind of talking
- 14:12Speaker 5: about this, Yesdy, when we're talking about the black quarterback
- 14:14Speaker 5: when we're at dinner with our CEO, and I think
- 14:20Speaker 5: that people Russell Wilson's an easy target because people perceive
- 14:25Speaker 5: his proximity to blackness not acceptable. Right.
- 14:28Speaker 4: He's kind of like a Carlton Banks on the Fresh
- 14:31Speaker 4: pres Yeah.
- 14:31Speaker 2: Dang, I wouldn't call it the Banks, you.
- 14:33Speaker 5: Know, you know. And I don't think there's anything wrong
- 14:39Speaker 5: with him loving his wife and being loud and proud
- 14:42Speaker 5: about that. He has a beautiful family. Yes, he's extremely skilled,
- 14:47Speaker 5: and if that is not for you, it's not for you.
- 14:50Speaker 5: But I don't think there's anything corny about loving someone
- 14:54Speaker 5: and being loud about that. And if you're somebody who
- 14:56Speaker 5: wants to love more privately. That's cool, but I feel
- 14:59Speaker 5: like Russell Wilson doesn't give people enough in his personal.
- 15:03Speaker 4: Life to attack him.
- 15:06Speaker 5: So you got to attack something so superficial that he's
- 15:10Speaker 5: not cool enough, and you don't got swaged, you know
- 15:12Speaker 5: what I mean?
- 15:13Speaker 4: Like didn't he go to school in Wisconsin? Or where
- 15:17Speaker 4: do you go to school? Wisconsin?
- 15:21Speaker 1: But he also was the school at North Carolina State too?
- 15:24Speaker 1: All right, well, I mean what you think trying to
- 15:28Speaker 1: get that clip?
- 15:29Speaker 5: And I've seen him close and you know, there's nothing
- 15:33Speaker 5: wrong with Russell Wilson.
- 15:35Speaker 1: I ain't sleeping with him exactly. So if the person
- 15:40Speaker 1: that it really matters to, if it, if it suits her, then.
- 15:45Speaker 4: Without those babies.
- 15:46Speaker 1: So clearly there was something.
- 15:48Speaker 6: But you said he also went to North Carolina State,
- 15:50Speaker 6: so you're saying.
- 15:52Speaker 1: He was around some swag. He went to North Carolina State?
- 15:55Speaker 1: She said, you know, didn't he go to school in
- 15:58Speaker 1: Wisconsin whereas there's no where there's no swag. I rebelled
- 16:02Speaker 1: that you know of you ain't been to Wisconsin to
- 16:04Speaker 1: see some swag or to observe the swag. So I
- 16:08Speaker 1: just rebelled and sayd he also went to school in.
- 16:13Speaker 5: Necessarily your character as if it's not in you, it's
- 16:15Speaker 5: not in you. And I think we would be more
- 16:18Speaker 5: we'd have more of an issue with Russell Wilson if
- 16:20Speaker 5: he tried to present a version of himself that was
- 16:23Speaker 5: just unauthenticly like Russell Wilson. Now. Granted, from a football aspect,
- 16:28Speaker 5: you know, only his teammates and former teammates can speak
- 16:31Speaker 5: about that, and they have been very vocal about him
- 16:33Speaker 5: in the locker room and stuff like that.
- 16:34Speaker 4: I obviously can't speak to that.
- 16:35Speaker 5: But from a personal standpoint, I think he's very authentically himself.
- 16:41Speaker 4: And I think if he tried to come out.
- 16:42Speaker 5: There and he was like you know, when he first
- 16:44Speaker 5: got with Sierra and he was dressed in a last swagger,
- 16:46Speaker 5: people were like, Yo, who does this guy.
- 16:47Speaker 4: Think he is?
- 16:48Speaker 5: When he pulls back and he's more like, I'm just
- 16:50Speaker 5: to be me. I'm gonna be Russell, I'm gonna be
- 16:52Speaker 5: a dad and be a husband. Now it's like, oh,
- 16:53Speaker 5: you can't have it both ways. You can't play both sides. Retired,
- 16:57Speaker 5: for sure, I think I think I think it's.
- 17:00Speaker 4: It for him.
- 17:01Speaker 1: I only think this is a story respectfully, and I
- 17:05Speaker 1: say this holding down the shift button as I'm typing
- 17:09Speaker 1: it out the people. The reason why people make this
- 17:13Speaker 1: a story about is Russell Wilson cool enough? Is because
- 17:19Speaker 1: who Sierra was with prior to Russell Wilson. If Sierra
- 17:25Speaker 1: was with this is my honest opinion, and I'm entitled
- 17:28Speaker 1: to it, and everybody can, you know, do whatever they want.
- 17:31Speaker 1: But if she was with anybody else, and given the
- 17:34Speaker 1: optics of hey, she moved on from him to go here,
- 17:39Speaker 1: it's like, oh, that don't match. And with that now
- 17:46Speaker 1: it gives people this narrative comparing the two, and if
- 17:51Speaker 1: it works for them, you know what I'm saying.
- 17:56Speaker 2: I think.
- 17:58Speaker 5: Her changing her time per se and now look at
- 18:02Speaker 5: her life. Sometimes you gotta go against.
- 18:04Speaker 1: If she always for divorce, if she has spoke highly
- 18:09Speaker 1: of her man, if they still stayed together, stuck it out, congratulations,
- 18:17Speaker 1: you made it another day.
- 18:18Speaker 2: Now do you think you should retire?
- 18:20Speaker 1: Absolutely? And I'm gonna tell you why.
- 18:25Speaker 2: First couple of games weren't that bad as.
- 18:27Speaker 1: They weren't winning. Though. I think the discussion point now
- 18:33Speaker 1: is is he a Hall of famer? I think Russell
- 18:36Speaker 1: Wilson is a Hall of Famer. Why is because if
- 18:40Speaker 1: you let people who is projected to get in the
- 18:43Speaker 1: Hall of Fame in his numbers are comparable to them,
- 18:48Speaker 1: one being Eli Manning. Then that brings up the discussion.
- 18:51Speaker 1: Somebody will say Eli Manning won two Super Bowls, Russell
- 18:55Speaker 1: Wilson only won one. I said, okay, cool, Well, if
- 18:59Speaker 1: we're giving that optic for Steve Young is in the
- 19:03Speaker 1: Hall of Fame as a starting quarterback, He's only one
- 19:07Speaker 1: one super Bowl, So that merit alone says, all right,
- 19:13Speaker 1: he should be.
- 19:14Speaker 4: He should be in any Super Bowls in the Hall
- 19:16Speaker 4: of Fame.
- 19:16Speaker 1: Hello, Damn Marino. But Damn Marino put up, what are
- 19:21Speaker 1: we doing? And I think that that's that's what we
- 19:23Speaker 1: do oftentimes in sports. It's it's almost like the beauty thing.
- 19:27Speaker 1: Beauty is in the eye of the favorites, with athletes
- 19:33Speaker 1: is in the eye of the beholder. It's the same thing.
- 19:36Speaker 1: It's like if we're covering sports, and that's why we
- 19:38Speaker 1: love sports so much, and these type of topics and
- 19:42Speaker 1: viewpoints is what we plan on bringing to you know,
- 19:45Speaker 1: the screen for one o six and sports as well.
- 19:48Speaker 2: Politics.
- 19:50Speaker 1: No, okay, this is personal for me.
- 19:55Speaker 4: What do y'all feel about the Ravens right now?
- 20:00Speaker 1: Why why, why, Why? I'm looking at the games and like,
- 20:12Speaker 1: why are y'all losing?
- 20:14Speaker 4: It doesn't make sense, It doesn't.
- 20:16Speaker 1: But I still do think that they're going to make
- 20:18Speaker 1: it to the playoffs. It's not because I'm a fan
- 20:20Speaker 1: of the Ravens more so than I believe in Lamar Jackson.
- 20:23Speaker 1: Like Lamar Jackson is another person similar to what I
- 20:26Speaker 1: was saying about Travis Hunter. Yeah, does he have any
- 20:29Speaker 1: Super Bowls?
- 20:30Speaker 5: No?
- 20:30Speaker 1: But does he have MVPs Yes? And I think he
- 20:34Speaker 1: is the best quarterback during this span, including Patrick Mahomes,
- 20:38Speaker 1: because what Lamar Jackson does is different than what Patrick
- 20:43Speaker 1: Mahomes do is he is the visual for people that
- 20:53Speaker 1: give them hope, like Michael Vick was to me. I
- 20:58Speaker 1: didn't think I could ever play quarterback until I seen
- 21:02Speaker 1: somebody look like me, play like me and relate or
- 21:06Speaker 1: I could relate to while they were playing. I've seen
- 21:10Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson. I've witnessed his greatness. When he goes back
- 21:14Speaker 1: to South Florida, no domestic charges, no duy. We don't
- 21:20Speaker 1: even know who he dating. We don't know what is
- 21:23Speaker 1: going on. The main thing has always been the main thing.
- 21:26Speaker 1: I respect that people critique him on his football prowess
- 21:31Speaker 1: and not other things. Because being in the league as
- 21:35Speaker 1: long as he has, being in the spotlight as long
- 21:37Speaker 1: as he has, he has zero blemishes. And I'm knocking
- 21:41Speaker 1: on wood saying that because that's what I look at.
- 21:43Speaker 1: I know it's hard. It's easy to get in trouble,
- 21:46Speaker 1: it's hard to get out of it, and we don't
- 21:49Speaker 1: highlight that enough. Absolutely, where bro like Russell Wilson's is
- 21:54Speaker 1: the same thing, Like we ain't never heard of Russell
- 21:56Speaker 1: Wilson slap and say yeah, like what that would have
- 21:58Speaker 1: been like a character deaf nation for the rest of
- 22:01Speaker 1: his life. Right, But we're talking about opinions that we
- 22:06Speaker 1: don't hang our hat on enough in regards especially the
- 22:10Speaker 1: narrative of the black athlete. Right, you see what I'm saying.
- 22:13Speaker 3: So now your door, we gotta go to Sanders. I
- 22:15Speaker 3: know you guys got to go Sanders family. You mentioned
- 22:17Speaker 3: Sanders earlier today. What's your thoughts on your door? What
- 22:19Speaker 3: your what's your thoughts on Dan?
- 22:21Speaker 1: I told you I've been open about I don't think
- 22:23Speaker 1: Cleveland wants him to succeed.
- 22:26Speaker 6: Yea, it was a business decision.
- 22:27Speaker 1: It's definitely like why would you like why would I cut?
- 22:31Speaker 1: And uh just sing her why would I cut? Dj envy?
- 22:36Speaker 1: If he's leading in business like that T shirt or
- 22:40Speaker 1: that chain that you got on, it's doing numbers from
- 22:44Speaker 1: a business standpoint, It's like, why would I Why would
- 22:47Speaker 1: I cut that? It's good for business? Not granted, people
- 22:50Speaker 1: always look at the entertainment of the NFL not realizing like, yo,
- 22:54Speaker 1: Jerry Jones is a dominant businessman and this is a
- 22:57Speaker 1: sport to him. How can we, like we get money?
- 23:01Speaker 1: Like when the Dallas Cowboys. He's he's mind tricked everybody
- 23:04Speaker 1: to think that when the Dallas Cowboys are good, it's
- 23:07Speaker 1: good for football. No, it's not. It's good for your pockets.
- 23:11Speaker 4: But the fact that.
- 23:11Speaker 5: Shador isn't playing, like, the Browns can't get any lower
- 23:15Speaker 5: than they already are. Right, They're they're a very disgruntled
- 23:18Speaker 5: franchise as a whole historically, right. I would understand the
- 23:23Speaker 5: business aspects of it if he were playing. But he's
- 23:26Speaker 5: not seeing the field, So I don't see what the
- 23:28Speaker 5: return on your investment is for a quarterback that doesn't
- 23:31Speaker 5: suit up. He's not even getting garbage time minutes. Dang,
- 23:34Speaker 5: he's I mean, he's not seeing the fields at all,
- 23:36Speaker 5: so I can understand, you know what the analogy you
- 23:38Speaker 5: use about envy if like even in the fourth quarter
- 23:42Speaker 5: and the Browns are either losing or they're up, which
- 23:44Speaker 5: is rarely ever the case, but they're losing.
- 23:46Speaker 1: If you look at the games. They've been in the games.
- 23:48Speaker 4: But what I'm saying is like, he's not getting any
- 23:51Speaker 4: field time.
- 23:51Speaker 5: So it's not like you even real superstardom of Chador
- 23:56Speaker 5: Sanders and the Sanders name if he's not even.
- 23:58Speaker 4: Seeing the kid.
- 23:59Speaker 1: Put it like in simplistic form, you get garbage time
- 24:03Speaker 1: when there's garbage opportunities down by forty or up by
- 24:07Speaker 1: Unfortunately you're Ravens last week.
- 24:11Speaker 2: That was last question.
- 24:12Speaker 1: Yea for that optic When you're like thirty five to three,
- 24:17Speaker 1: that's garbage time. Cleveland has been in pretty much every
- 24:21Speaker 1: single game that they've played, so it's hard to be like, yo,
- 24:24Speaker 1: we're trying to win. You know, you're expecting to win.
- 24:32Speaker 1: It's surprising that they have been in games. We're not
- 24:36Speaker 1: used to seeing that. And it's like when you have
- 24:38Speaker 1: a guy you know as dominant as their defensive end,
- 24:44Speaker 1: their defense as a whole, and they are capable miles Garrett.
- 24:49Speaker 1: I'm thinking of his name, Miles Garrett, and we don't
- 24:53Speaker 1: have an offense that's generating offense. And that's the frustrating thing.
- 24:58Speaker 1: My reasoning we're saying, hey, I don't think they want
- 25:02Speaker 1: him to succeed is because look at the situations that
- 25:05Speaker 1: they put him in. It was only the first preseason
- 25:07Speaker 1: game that I felt like it was an adequate time
- 25:09Speaker 1: for you to judge to see if he's capable. The third,
- 25:12Speaker 1: the other one, it was just like, bro, them guys
- 25:15Speaker 1: ain't even gonna be in you know what I'm saying.
- 25:16Speaker 5: And we don't say though when the situation happened that
- 25:20Speaker 5: he was going to have an uphill battle for two reasons.
- 25:22Speaker 5: One is last name, but also because of where he
- 25:26Speaker 5: was drafted for sure, and if it's if you take
- 25:28Speaker 5: the last name out of the picture, it was already
- 25:30Speaker 5: going to be an uphill battle. You add the last name,
- 25:33Speaker 5: you add Dion Sanders, you add everything from Colorado, and
- 25:36Speaker 5: it's just adding to the already uphill battle that any
- 25:39Speaker 5: fifth round pick has.
- 25:40Speaker 1: Yeah, and he has a quarterback that was drafted in
- 25:44Speaker 1: the same year, so that's you know, Dylan Gabriel, who's
- 25:50Speaker 1: from the optics. They want him to succeed, They put
- 25:53Speaker 1: him in position to succeed. I can't say the same
- 25:56Speaker 1: enough as much, you know, for you.
- 25:59Speaker 6: Yeah a question, So, first congratulations when you deal with
- 26:02Speaker 6: ESPN A first take. Yeah, so I know when everything
- 26:06Speaker 6: happened with Shannon Sharp and your deal was announced, people
- 26:09Speaker 6: made it seem like you were like the replacement because
- 26:11Speaker 6: he was going to no longer be there. And I
- 26:13Speaker 6: know he's a mentor to you. How has just navigating
- 26:16Speaker 6: that dynamic or even that conversation been for you, because
- 26:18Speaker 6: even when you spoke about it, you made sure that
- 26:20Speaker 6: you were like, you know, you were very thoughtful of
- 26:23Speaker 6: how you spoke on both sides of it, Like you
- 26:24Speaker 6: were fair to her and fair to him.
- 26:26Speaker 4: Yeah, who is her the alleged victim?
- 26:29Speaker 1: Oh yeah yeah. Like I speak of about my personal
- 26:33Speaker 1: relationships with individuals not to condone or you know, support wrongness.
- 26:40Speaker 1: That's not the case. If somebody feels that God blessed
- 26:46Speaker 1: me with an opportunity off of somebody else, well, well
- 26:54Speaker 1: now I know Shannon Sharp. Shannon Sharp has helped me
- 26:59Speaker 1: in my career im mensely. You can't have me talk
- 27:03Speaker 1: bad on that person because I look up to him
- 27:07Speaker 1: in a way, and I judge my content off of
- 27:09Speaker 1: some of the things that he does. I can call
- 27:11Speaker 1: Shannon Sharp right now, I can I can reach out
- 27:15Speaker 1: to Ocho right now. You can't make me hate Nightcap
- 27:18Speaker 1: No any different than Club shay Shaw. You can't make
- 27:21Speaker 1: me hate it is what it is. Nor it can
- 27:23Speaker 1: make me hate the Pivot. You can't make me hate
- 27:26Speaker 1: any other platform that I see anybody that has my complexion,
- 27:31Speaker 1: because I think what we get miss guided with is
- 27:36Speaker 1: this is not competition and content. It's just my next collaboration.
- 27:41Speaker 1: It's not I ain't competing with you, bro. Like first take,
- 27:45Speaker 1: stephen A. Smith calls me, He's like, hey man, I'm
- 27:48Speaker 1: gonna give you two options. Which one you want to do?

- 28:04Speaker 1: to get to your point now. It's not no fourth
- 28:07Speaker 1: in one type of tone, where you can build up
- 28:09Speaker 1: the story. It's like, no, bro, because I need I

- 28:22Speaker 1: to study each other, but we also need to have
- 28:26Speaker 1: the ratings and the reviews to be entertaining. So it's
- 28:30Speaker 1: unfortunate what you know Shannon Sharp went through. But for me,
- 28:34Speaker 1: I respect him with the media empire that he's creating
- 28:39Speaker 1: and is half created or creating, he's extremely brilliant. And
- 28:46Speaker 1: when it comes to Stephen A. Smith, he's a person
- 28:49Speaker 1: that is a machine a machine. And we had our
- 28:53Speaker 1: discussion about him yesterday and I think he's been very
- 28:59Speaker 1: intentional about how people view him. It's extremely intentional. It's like, Yo,
- 29:06Speaker 1: he moved you. And I've been saying this on this
- 29:08Speaker 1: press front. It's like I want to move people emotionally,
