  Speaker 2: awesome episode. Dude, we uh oh Before we get into it.
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: This episode is brought to you by our presenting sponsor,
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: the Chevy Silverado. Football season is peaking this weekend. We
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: have Super Bowl Sunday. Pull up to Super Bowl Sunday
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: in your Super Bowl truck and that is the Chevy Silverado,
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: the strongest, most advanced Silverado ever. And we are talking
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: about the available multiflex tailgate with six confiee convenient configurations
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: that will give you a step up on your tailgating game.
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: There's a primary tailgate one that opens up with a
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: push of a button, on the keyfop or from the
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: inside of your truck. The inner gate folds down into
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: a large step to easily get in and out of
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: the bed. There's an easy access configuration where the innergate
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: folds down, allowing you to reach farther into the bed.
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: So all the issues that you have reaching in and
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: out of the bed of the truck, whether you're moving
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: stuff or not, hor it's.
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: Tucked back away.
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: You now have that innergate that falls down, allowing you
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: to reach a little farther in the bed. It can
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: also become a desk or a surface for your tailgating meal,
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: or if you got to get some work done while
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: you're tailgating, throw your laptop, throw your iPad up, watch
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: your favorite show, do some work, knock out some emails,
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: whatever the case may be. But the Chevy Silverado modern
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: advance with a ton of grit, just like the people
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: who drive them. You and the Silverado is as strong, independable.
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: Oh I already use that line, just like the people
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: who drive them. Go to your local Chevy dealership. We
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: like to go. If you're in the Greater nash we
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: go to Freeland Chevy. Uh, but go to your local
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: dealership let him know that the boy sent you, and
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: I'm sure that they will throw in a little, you
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: know something free. Just say, hey, hey, the boy send me.
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: Maybe they'll throw in an extra truck if you buy one.
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: Who knows, but the strongest, most advanced Silverado ever, the
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: Chevy Silverado.
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: Now to the episode.
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: We Uh, we had those guys on and it was
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: a blast them three, Taylor and I.
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: There's a lot of banter.
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: This is like, this was the most locker room vibe
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: I've felt on the bus because we had five guys talking.
• 2:32
  Speaker 4: Uh.
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: We had we threw a few little whistle pigs in
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: us before this whole show even started.
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: So it was a lot of fun.
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: There's some talking over each other a little bit, please
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: have some patience, but the boys we had a lot
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: of fun, a lot of laughs around each other. At
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: the beginning, we talk about we get into some some
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: some Derrick Henry.
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: I wouldn't know.
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: I don't know if it's drama or arguing back and
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: forth about who the best back.
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: In the league is.
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: Obviously, Uh, the Titan side, we think, well, we think
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: about Derek, and then you got the other side. We
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: got to hear from from Taylor talking about who he
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: thought the best back was. Ryan Clarks obviously says some
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: things against Derrick Henry that gets addressed, but a lot
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: of good locker room talk, a lot of good banter.
• 3:09

• 3:30
  Speaker 2: part of this episode is we dive into why I
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: Am Athlete broke up. That's more toward the back end
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: of the pod. You good, JP. It is epic. It
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: is epic. That's the big reason I wanted them on.
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: I've been a huge fan of I Am Athlete for
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: at least a year now. I know they really started
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: to pick it up and gain a lot of momentum
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: traction during that twenty nineteen year I believe was that
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: it right at the beginning of COVID. Yeah, when they
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: started getting Ocho Cinco. They got Channing Crowder for a tailor.
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: When they were on the pile with Brandon Marshall. I
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: started to I mean, shit, I've been heavily influenced by them.
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: I really enjoy watching their show, like literally on my
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: big screen, watching their show about culture, pop culture, football,
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: all the headlines and stuff like that. And I've just
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: been a big follower and fan of that show. I
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: still am. But when Channing and Fred left the show
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: to start to Pivot with Ryan, you know, they went
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: MIA for a little bit this back this last part
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: of the year in twenty twenty one, and then you
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: didn't really hear much from them in the beginning of
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: twenty twenty two. I thought something might be up, and
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: then the truth comes out on Pivot. It's their first
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: episode if you want to go check it out to
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: where Channing and Fred both alude to kind of what happened.
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: But being a fan, being heavily influenced by them, and
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: also being in the industry of podcasting in this media,
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: this digital media world, I wanted to dive in on
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: what happened business wise with them. They're all still rooting
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: for each other, but we get into a lot of
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: good stuff with im athletes on the back end of
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: this thing. Uh and again and you learn a lot
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: of good business stuff buttoning up the business. They give
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: us a lot of good insight on everything that went
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: down and why that separation ultimately broke the band up.
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: But getting into the episode, enjoy it, like subscribe all
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: the good stuff.
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: Here is the boys with the Pivot podcast. No problem,
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: we're running? Were you speaking when you're saying that?
• 5:25
  Speaker 5: No?
• 5:25
  Speaker 6: So so like it's a crazy thing, right, like how
• 5:28
  Speaker 6: time's changed.
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying.
• 5:29
  Speaker 7: Well, you know obviously you've been to my house with
• 5:32
  Speaker 7: Bible study. You know, we.
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: Knowing chicken right.
• 5:36
  Speaker 8: In fact, he was killing you on Pivot about yea
• 5:39
  Speaker 8: chicken things.
• 5:39
  Speaker 6: So he was like he would actually just to eat.
• 5:43
  Speaker 6: Here's just crazy. Hey Taylor, Hey Taylor, my dog would
• 5:49
  Speaker 6: eat they take a doggie bag.
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 5:51
  Speaker 6: But it's super cool though, right right, It's super cool
• 5:53
  Speaker 6: to see my dog Mary about to have a baby
• 5:56
  Speaker 6: and be like uncle RC like like that's dope. Like
• 5:59
  Speaker 6: even being here man, and like having an opportunity to
• 6:02
  Speaker 6: be on the bus.
• 6:03
  Speaker 7: Obviously Ta you weren't here.
• 6:05
  Speaker 6: But it's crazy though, Like I bring chatting with me,
• 6:08
  Speaker 6: I bring friend with me, and I got to hold
• 6:10
  Speaker 6: my mic like everybody else got the joint like, I
• 6:13
  Speaker 6: don't even know if I got a camera, Like, do
• 6:14
  Speaker 6: I have a damn goalpro.
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: I think it's easy.
• 6:16
  Speaker 8: It's an easy explanation why these two gentlemen right here,
• 6:19
  Speaker 8: and they seem very nice gentle geting me the right
• 6:21
  Speaker 8: way when I came in. The only thing I've seen
• 6:23
  Speaker 8: from you is sitting on ESPN talking shit about Derek Henry.
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: And that's where it is.
• 6:27
  Speaker 7: Wow, I said that make him hold the so his
• 6:30
  Speaker 7: What was crazy to me?
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: See that up towards the end of this thing.
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: Here's was crazy to me.
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: Th t.
• 6:35
  Speaker 6: I never said Derek Henry wasn't a great running back, right,
• 6:39
  Speaker 6: I never said he wasn't one of the best in
• 6:41
  Speaker 6: the league. All I said it was when it's time
• 6:44
  Speaker 6: for him to get a tough yard and act like
• 6:46
  Speaker 6: he was two hundred.
• 6:47
  Speaker 7: And fifty pounds, he wouldn't.
• 6:48
  Speaker 6: And listen, I've never played running back except for like
• 6:51
  Speaker 6: little league.
• 6:52
  Speaker 8: So when you go, if we're gonna get into the
• 6:54
  Speaker 8: last week with the Bengals, we knew that ninety four.
• 6:57
  Speaker 8: Sam Hubston, Hudson, Hubbard, Hubbard, Damn Hudberd. First off, Stam,
• 7:01
  Speaker 8: I know you're probably watching this you told me you're
• 7:03
  Speaker 8: a fan on the field. Your lats aren't that big, budd,
• 7:05
  Speaker 8: so put those hands down by that way. But watching
• 7:08
  Speaker 8: on film when we did read options, he always came
• 7:13
  Speaker 8: to the quarterback like right to uh, like the intersection
• 7:16
  Speaker 8: between the running back and the quarterback, the mesh point.
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: That's think you, that's why you're staring. I really appreciate it.
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: You know, hold on.
• 7:27
  Speaker 8: It's third down and so we call that play. I'm
• 7:29
  Speaker 8: not going to say I'll play it this. I'm still
• 7:31
  Speaker 8: playing and I don't want to give up what we're doing.
• 7:33
  Speaker 8: They were saying ninety nine point nine percent time, it's
• 7:36
  Speaker 8: going to be a pull, and I think I think
• 7:38
  Speaker 8: they told Tannehill to pull it because of the way
• 7:40
  Speaker 8: he's shown on film.
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: He plays the poll. That's and that's as far as
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: I know.
• 7:45
  Speaker 8: I don't know if that's true or not like that,
• 7:48
  Speaker 8: But when we watched on film in the old line
• 7:50
  Speaker 8: room or a line coach said, this guy is coming
• 7:53
  Speaker 8: at the mesh, the mesh point every single time. But
• 7:56
  Speaker 8: getting out, getting at the yard. As a running back,
• 7:59
  Speaker 8: you can put the biggest uo out there. I saw
• 8:01
  Speaker 8: Quent Nelson not score on a he was an eligible
• 8:04
  Speaker 8: player at fullback.
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: One time, he's three hundred and sixty pounds.
• 8:07
  Speaker 6: He was Quentin Nelson, don't run footballs for a living, bro, Bro,
• 8:11
  Speaker 6: And I said this. He talks about Wade Taylor.
• 8:14
  Speaker 7: I don't think.
• 8:15
  Speaker 6: I think Derrick Henry is one of the best running
• 8:17
  Speaker 6: backs in the best. That's not true.
• 8:20
  Speaker 8: I think he had almost a thousand yards and didn't
• 8:23
  Speaker 8: play ten games.
• 8:24
  Speaker 7: Absolutely amazing.
• 8:25
  Speaker 6: The fact that I don't know who's over Here's what
• 8:27
  Speaker 6: I'm saying, Taylor, Taylor, here's my thing. So here's what
• 8:32
  Speaker 6: I thought, here's my here's my only thought. I didn't
• 8:35
  Speaker 6: think Derrick Henry because the way people saw him as
• 8:38
  Speaker 6: a power back.
• 8:39
  Speaker 7: I don't think Derrick Henry is a power back.
• 8:42
  Speaker 6: I don't think the fear that most media analysts talk
• 8:47
  Speaker 6: about Derrick Henery running the football is a fear I have,
• 8:51
  Speaker 6: right like I am at two hundred pounds, fully fully confident.
• 8:57
  Speaker 7: You give me a small hole and Derrek ca Andy,
• 9:00
  Speaker 7: I'll win.
• 9:01
  Speaker 3: That's why you can't.
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: Say that out of ten times. Let me let me
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: say this, Okay, yeah, you go ahead, and then I'm
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: gonna go and have will. So let me let me
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: say that I was Also.
• 9:12
  Speaker 7: I was a cuss and I came on the side.
• 9:14
  Speaker 6: Will Will Will, But I didn't get I said, will content,
• 9:19
  Speaker 6: I said a small.
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: Hole face, but you're older there.
• 9:28
  Speaker 7: That was my that was I be honest, it wasn't
• 9:31
  Speaker 7: about older. So I hate. I had ad kwal bold
• 9:33
  Speaker 7: in a few plays before.
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: I was sleep.
• 9:35
  Speaker 7: I'm gonna be honest.
• 9:36
  Speaker 3: I was sleeping and knocked you out.
• 9:37
  Speaker 7: I was knocked out.
• 9:38
  Speaker 6: I came back in the game and they ran. They
• 9:40
  Speaker 6: ran the zone, read the other way I was coming from.
• 9:43
  Speaker 6: I was coming from the side, and he ran through me.
• 9:46
  Speaker 6: I'll be honest, straight up, I'm that's not what I'm
• 9:49
  Speaker 6: talking about. What I'm talking about is this. And I said,
• 9:51
  Speaker 6: I talked about Will to this. I want a small
• 9:54
  Speaker 6: hole where none of us have anywhere to go.
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: We want That's what that's But call those high.
• 10:01
  Speaker 7: I don't both of them. I don't think like.
• 10:04
  Speaker 6: I don't think Derek Herey's soft like I just don't
• 10:06
  Speaker 6: think he's the power runner.
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: But this is people because.
• 10:10
  Speaker 3: Of his size.
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 10:13
  Speaker 4: Let me talk a little bit because Arcie, you know
• 10:17
  Speaker 4: he's he's a defender, right, that's what he wants.
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: He wants that.
• 10:20
  Speaker 4: That's very inviting for him, and quite quite honestly, if
• 10:25
  Speaker 4: he sees a small hole, formulating he's going to shoot
• 10:28
  Speaker 4: his wide and he's supposed to just shoot everything. But
• 10:32
  Speaker 4: as a running back, and we're talking about a guy
• 10:34
  Speaker 4: who's six four, two hundred and I don't know, thirty
• 10:38
  Speaker 4: five pounds or whatever.
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: All right, two fifty, Right, he's a strider, you.
• 10:46
  Speaker 4: Know, he's he's not quick, you know, in space, in
• 10:50
  Speaker 4: intermediate space, he's a strider. He has to have the
• 10:53
  Speaker 4: ability to get going. When he's going. He had his
• 10:56
  Speaker 4: assets are his stiff arm, and now when he's out
• 11:00
  Speaker 4: in the open field, he's a strid. Nobody wants any
• 11:03
  Speaker 4: business from Derrick Henry when he when he's going. But
• 11:06
  Speaker 4: if you get an opportunity, like Arcie says, to catch
• 11:09
  Speaker 4: him in a hole at the line of scrimmage, there's
• 11:13
  Speaker 4: not a lot of play for him because his lateral
• 11:15
  Speaker 4: ability isn't great. He has good later ability for a
• 11:18
  Speaker 4: big guy, but he's not gonna shift his feet and
• 11:22
  Speaker 4: jump cut. No, he doesn't have the best jump cut
• 11:25
  Speaker 4: in the game. I got to give that to Jonathan
• 11:27
  Speaker 4: Taylor and Indy. In my opinion, Derek Henry is still
• 11:31
  Speaker 4: the best back in the League one A, one B.
• 11:34
  Speaker 4: I will go with Jonathan Taylor.
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: I would want Derek Henry in the hole.
• 11:39
  Speaker 4: I don't want him to get a full high charging
• 11:42
  Speaker 4: the head of you know, full head of speed. That's
• 11:46
  Speaker 4: impossible if he does. No, no, no, it's not that I'm scary.
• 11:49
  Speaker 4: I'm having played the position for my entire fucking life.
• 11:54
  Speaker 4: I know how it goes. He's a he's a big
• 11:57
  Speaker 4: strong man. And if he gets if he gets downhill.
• 12:01
  Speaker 3: Here he right through anybody.
• 12:03
  Speaker 8: You gonna hold your mon, you gonna hold your monkey
• 12:05
  Speaker 8: safety from the Bills. Monday night football, wide open space.
• 12:09
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I saw the ninety plus yard of ninety nine
• 12:11
  Speaker 4: against my old team.
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: Stiff arms and that's great, great stiff forms. You know
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: what if I'm six four desive lineman at the Colts to.
• 12:20
  Speaker 6: W W character right, Wow, So I'm I'm six four,
• 12:23
  Speaker 6: I know how to run away from people and throw
• 12:25
  Speaker 6: stiff forms.
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: I'm not believing it.
• 12:27
  Speaker 3: So all I want to.
• 12:28
  Speaker 7: See is face to face.
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: What do I see?
• 12:31
  Speaker 4: You?
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: Right?
• 12:31
  Speaker 4: So you have to give it to a guy who
• 12:33
  Speaker 4: was undrafted. He he thirteen of them. I was getting there.
• 12:38
  Speaker 4: So thirteen years in the average live span is what
• 12:41
  Speaker 4: three years? Right, three and some change down?
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: It's gone down now two and a half.
• 12:44
  Speaker 4: A right, so just around hovering around almost three years,
• 12:47
  Speaker 4: two and a half. This guy is an overachiever. He's
• 12:50
  Speaker 4: done great. So every chance he gets, he's going to
• 12:54
  Speaker 4: have that that that small guy play right, he wants
• 12:57
  Speaker 4: to give you every fucking thing that he has.
• 13:00
  Speaker 6: Telor what I'm asking is, let me be in the spot.
• 13:02
  Speaker 6: Why don't have to wrap him up?
• 13:04
  Speaker 3: You're right, you're.
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: Gonna you are gonna win. Guess what? All right, so
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: gonna win?
• 13:08
  Speaker 8: Let me just get this right of what you're trying
• 13:10
  Speaker 8: to say. How you would beat Derrick Henry if the
• 13:12
  Speaker 8: hole was small enough for just your shoulders could fit through,
• 13:15

• 14:54
  Speaker 7: And I'm cool with that. Like, the thing is this though.
• 14:57
  Speaker 6: The thing is this, It's never It's never been a
• 15:00
  Speaker 6: situation with me where I thought Derrick Henry wasn't one
• 15:03
  Speaker 6: of the greatest that's ever done it, because I believe
• 15:05
  Speaker 6: he is.
• 15:06
  Speaker 9: Right.
• 15:06
  Speaker 6: I'm on TV in a situation to where Steven A.
• 15:09
  Speaker 6: Smith and these people are talking about being afraid of him,
• 15:13
  Speaker 6: and my thought was, like, I'm not afraid of anybody,
• 15:16
  Speaker 6: right that if I get the if I get an
• 15:18
  Speaker 6: equal opportunity, which we know tackling people is not equal, right,
• 15:23
  Speaker 6: we know blocking people is not equal. Right, Like, situations
• 15:26
  Speaker 6: differ and all. I like, I respect der here. I
• 15:29
  Speaker 6: think he's one of the best running backs playing the
• 15:31
  Speaker 6: game right now. Taylor says he's the best, and that's cool.
• 15:34
  Speaker 6: I can't disagree with that because he's.
• 15:36
  Speaker 8: One of the greatests ever do it. Yeah, another player
• 15:39
  Speaker 8: out here, the greatest ever do.
• 15:40
  Speaker 6: It, that's playing now. But here's the best there, here's
• 15:45
  Speaker 6: the best that's doing now.
• 15:48
  Speaker 10: Will we we tackled. We tackled big bad motherfuckers our
• 15:52
  Speaker 10: whole life. That's what we did. You know, your offense,
• 15:54
  Speaker 10: your offense. I ain't worry about sacking nobody. We're surprised
• 15:57
  Speaker 10: that you can question Derrick Henry like your questioning Derek Henry, Arcy,
• 16:02
  Speaker 10: I don't even speak for it.
• 16:03

  Speaker 1: He just open.
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: He said that, but he's all like when he's actually
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: talking about what he's saying is when he's on TV
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: and people are talking about being fearful of playing against that.
• 16:21

• 18:27
  Speaker 8: There's a couple of things to the statement you're trying
• 18:29
  Speaker 8: to make that are tough to follow, because when you're
• 18:33
  Speaker 8: doing the ESPN article, the article is saying, defense is
• 18:35
  Speaker 8: fear this guy. Now, when you're generally speaking out a defense,
• 18:38
  Speaker 8: you're not just talking about one guy or there might
• 18:40
  Speaker 8: you might have five guys, ten guys, eleven guys on
• 18:42
  Speaker 8: the field.
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: They're like, no, we're not afraid of Derek. But that
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: also goes to the decoordinator. And when you go.
• 18:46
  Speaker 8: Into film or are you going to practice for your
• 18:48
  Speaker 8: notes on Wednesday? And they say, these are the guys
• 18:51
  Speaker 8: we got to watch out for. Derick Henry for sure
• 18:54
  Speaker 8: is fucking circled. And when fear doesn't come into lowering
• 18:58
  Speaker 8: your pads, if fear comes into guys breakaway.
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: Speed. Guy's got a great stiff arm guys can make.
• 19:02
  Speaker 8: He can make guys miss in the open field if
• 19:04
  Speaker 8: he gets into his fourth and fifth step. Watch the
• 19:06
  Speaker 8: funk out because he's at least getting four yards. That's
• 19:09
  Speaker 8: the fear, the general fear that defense is half so.
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: But I think Derek is in.
• 19:14
  Speaker 8: I don't we to say Derek is an over the top,
• 19:17
  Speaker 8: bruising back. Is He's not like a I don't know
• 19:20
  Speaker 8: who the Mike Alstott. He's not a Mike all Stott.
• 19:23
  Speaker 8: What he is he's He's an opportunist. If he sees
• 19:26
  Speaker 8: a dB on an angle, he's gonna stiff farm him,
• 19:29
  Speaker 8: or he's just gonna run away from him.
• 19:31
  Speaker 3: But when the.
• 19:31
  Speaker 8: Opportunity presents itself, when the opportunity presents itself to run
• 19:35
  Speaker 8: over somebody, he's going to do.
• 19:36
  Speaker 7: So it's this whole it's this whole thing of that
• 19:39
  Speaker 7: I'm hating on.
• 19:40
  Speaker 4: No.
• 19:40
  Speaker 6: I think he's a great back, and I think he
• 19:43
  Speaker 6: uses what.
• 19:44
  Speaker 7: He has to be exceptional. He's exceptional.
• 19:48
  Speaker 6: This man went out in a week eight and he
• 19:50
  Speaker 6: was in the top five and toil the end of
• 19:51
  Speaker 6: the season. I think Derrick Henry is the best back
• 19:55
  Speaker 6: in the league right now.
• 19:56
  Speaker 8: Well, that's transitions as the being of this conversation, right
• 19:58
  Speaker 8: I think, But that definitely has that's pivoted.
• 20:02
  Speaker 3: I walked up on and you love tackles.
• 20:04
  Speaker 10: We were talking about Jake Long on the pivot, right, bro,
• 20:07
  Speaker 10: crazy ship when we play tackles in the league.
• 20:10
  Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying, like you you break down guys.
• 20:12
  Speaker 10: And my my, uh my lineback coach was George Edwards.
• 20:16
  Speaker 10: He was the defense coordinator for Minnesota. I don't know
• 20:19
  Speaker 10: where he is now, but he's been in the league forever.
• 20:20
  Speaker 10: He was at Buffalo and off George. When you walk
• 20:23
  Speaker 10: up king George Edwards, he don't.
• 20:29
  Speaker 3: George Edwards, right, but he was a great coach.
• 20:31
  Speaker 10: And like if you walk up, so we play the
• 20:33
  Speaker 10: Bill and you walk up on you know, the Bills
• 20:35
  Speaker 10: always have sorry bitches, and the Jets when I played there,
• 20:38
  Speaker 10: the sorry bitches like you walk on on the thing,
• 20:40
  Speaker 10: and we had we had hands signals, so like you
• 20:43
  Speaker 10: walk up and they you know, double edged PRESSU or whatever.
• 20:45
  Speaker 3: So I was the wheel.
• 20:45
  Speaker 10: So I walk up and I look up to my
• 20:48
  Speaker 10: coach and he would tell me we'd break down, like
• 20:50
  Speaker 10: what Russias can beat this guy. So he'd be like
• 20:53
  Speaker 10: spin move, spin movie and he'd be like up and end.
• 20:56
  Speaker 10: And you know what I'm saying, like you he give
• 20:57
  Speaker 10: you little signals to be like, and we worked the
• 20:59
  Speaker 10: ship out in the in the film room.
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 21:01
  Speaker 10: Bro, one time we were playing the Ravens and Jonathan
• 21:05
  Speaker 10: Ogden was there. Jonathan Ogden was I would say he's
• 21:08
  Speaker 10: probably the best tackle I ever played.
• 21:10
  Speaker 8: Think he's a goat, right, he's like unanimously everyone says
• 21:13
  Speaker 8: he's one John.
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, I don't know.
• 21:18
  Speaker 8: I think I think Trent Williams in a conversation, he's
• 21:22
  Speaker 8: already conversation.
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: Definitely in that conversation.
• 21:27
  Speaker 3: Washington was that Washington?
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: Damn.
• 21:30
  Speaker 10: I've been retired ten years and I played. Trent's a
• 21:32
  Speaker 10: fucking beast.
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: The beast. Yes, was he in your ten eleven?
• 21:36
  Speaker 10: He might have been in year ten when I playedias
• 21:41
  Speaker 10: in year twenty four, right now forever.
• 21:44
  Speaker 7: And I said this because I played. I played with
• 21:48
  Speaker 7: like a lot of great players.
• 21:50
  Speaker 6: The top three athletes I ever played with, Sean Taylor,
• 21:54
  Speaker 6: Troy Polamalu, Trent Williams.
• 21:57
  Speaker 3: Dress like that.
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: Though I think I'm four and yeah, we'll got it before. Yeah,
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: I think right about Trent Williams, like they go to
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: the y and he played like beyond the arc.
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: He could do like Bro.
• 22:09
  Speaker 10: Yeah, but Bro, we were playing I played Jonathan Ogen
• 22:12
  Speaker 10: in Baltimore one time, and we did it, you know,
• 22:15
  Speaker 10: for years. He was my coordinator for like four years.
• 22:18
  Speaker 10: So we had our little hand signals. He you know
• 22:20
  Speaker 10: it up and under. We had all our hand signals.
• 22:23
  Speaker 10: So we had a check you know, if they go
• 22:25
  Speaker 10: twelve person our with two tight ends. We were blitsing
• 22:27
  Speaker 10: double edged pressure and they were running whatever, you know,
• 22:29
  Speaker 10: saying eight man box. And I walked up and I
• 22:32
  Speaker 10: looked at my coach and the motherfucker shrugged his.
• 22:35
  Speaker 3: Shoulders and I looked back over to Georgia.
• 22:41
  Speaker 10: I was like, and so I went, and I'll tell
• 22:48
  Speaker 10: the full story. When I rushed, the motherfuckers talked to
• 22:52
  Speaker 10: me the whole time.
• 22:52
  Speaker 3: He kicked back. That's tough, Jay, Big Jonathan Ogden, So
• 22:56
  Speaker 3: I'm rushing right, you know, And no, no, no, no, it wasn't.
• 23:05
  Speaker 10: This is the thing because I talked ship and we
• 23:07
  Speaker 10: got to talk about this.
• 23:07
  Speaker 3: We ain't talk about it on the PAP.
• 23:08
  Speaker 10: We got to talk about this because Teller, you talk ship,
• 23:11
  Speaker 10: and I love talking ship too.
• 23:13
  Speaker 3: If somebody be like my main ship, your daddy ain't
• 23:15
  Speaker 3: shipping off, like I can deal with that.
• 23:18
  Speaker 10: When when Jay, when Jo kicked back Aten kicked back.
• 23:22
  Speaker 10: He was like, oh, young man, yep, don't get back there. Okay,
• 23:29
  Speaker 10: he talked to me. So I got off. I got
• 23:31
  Speaker 10: my first you know, you go one, two, three, four,
• 23:33
  Speaker 10: and like, you know, you drop your shoulder and he
• 23:36

• 23:38
  Speaker 10: gonna do that. Oh, you gotta try to spin now.
• 23:40
  Speaker 10: Oh and then he grabbed me. And he grabbed me
• 23:44
  Speaker 10: and I'm sitting there and I'm in the middle of
• 23:47
  Speaker 10: a spin and he was like, oh, yep, young man,
• 23:50
  Speaker 10: you gotta get in the weight room.
• 23:53

  Speaker 2: tried rushing Taylor once and I know I'm butchering this
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: last Max when he comes on.

• 26:56
  Speaker 2: Milk sucks, got beer, all types of It's awesome, dude,
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: This ain't this ain't rip.
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: No, but no, Byron. We played together. We were teammates. Yeah,
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: and I didn't think anything other play with each other.
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: I know, but I have to play with each other.
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: I'd be like, oh, the good friends.
• 27:14
  Speaker 3: Freddie gives me sex toys from my wife?
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: Does he? I heard about the rose. That's a real friend.
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: I don't give it to him for his wife. For him.
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: We gotta let him talk on Byron. Yeah.
• 27:27
  Speaker 4: So so speaking, I think Byron will come in here
• 27:30
  Speaker 4: and change the culture. He's he's a very smart guy.
• 27:36
  Speaker 4: I think he will motive. Even though he's probably will
• 27:39
  Speaker 4: be younger than some of the guys, he's a he's
• 27:42
  Speaker 4: a very great motivator. And I think he's learned a
• 27:47
  Speaker 4: lot from Bruce arians he's been, you know, ready for
• 27:50
  Speaker 4: this position.
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: I think he's made for it. He didn't always know that.
• 27:54
  Speaker 4: I had to sort of reinforce his decision to go
• 27:58
  Speaker 4: to Arizona when he was questioning whether he should be
• 28:00
  Speaker 4: an intern or not.
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: And you know, we had a really good conversation.
• 28:04
  Speaker 4: He decided to go out there, and five six years
• 28:07
  Speaker 4: later now he has an opportunity to be a head coach.
• 28:10
  Speaker 4: So I say all that out of seeing what he
• 28:14
  Speaker 4: did as a player, being in the same meeting rooms,
• 28:17
  Speaker 4: seeing him being attentive, taking notes to Sensus urgency in
• 28:20
  Speaker 4: which he demanded the huddle, sharing the huddle with him,
• 28:25
  Speaker 4: seeing what he's done in his short time as the
• 28:27
  Speaker 4: OC and Tampa, I think Byron will be able to
• 28:31
  Speaker 4: have an opportunity to go out there and do some
• 28:32
  Speaker 4: good things.

• 29:54
  Speaker 6: I think it's one like Will's family and me like
• 29:58
  Speaker 6: he always will be, you know, everything that he does,
• 30:01
  Speaker 6: like all the things that he's created. It kind of
• 30:04
  Speaker 6: feels to me very similar to my career, right, you know,
• 30:08
  Speaker 6: like people nobody wanted who's created things in football and
• 30:12
  Speaker 6: outside of football that are super awesome.
• 30:15
  Speaker 7: And like a huge reason I wanted you Tailor on.
• 30:18
  Speaker 6: Our show was because like if Will can see some
• 30:22
  Speaker 6: synergy with you, some energy and some chemistry, like you
• 30:26
  Speaker 6: just got to be a dope dude. And I think
• 30:28
  Speaker 6: like what you guys are doing. Man, Like the platform
• 30:31
  Speaker 6: like you're providing for people to like truly express themselves.
• 30:35
  Speaker 6: Its super dope and like on the other side of that, though,
• 30:39
  Speaker 6: it's like where does you know? And that's my question
• 30:43
  Speaker 6: Taylor and also Will, like both of you guys put
• 30:47
  Speaker 6: on pads this year, you know what I'm saying. And
• 30:50
  Speaker 6: you know I was the first person to do that.
• 30:52
  Speaker 6: I was the first person to get a TV contract
• 30:54
  Speaker 6: while playing. Remember that what I'm saying, Like, so, like,
• 30:57
  Speaker 6: how do you guys like kind of deal with doing
• 31:00
  Speaker 6: this whole thing and also playing ball and trying to
• 31:04
  Speaker 6: be active in that you.
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: Want to hit that? You want to hit that. Oh,
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: I think we're both kind of different.
• 31:09
  Speaker 8: Yeah, I think it is different for both of us
• 31:10
  Speaker 8: right now. For me, it's like there was definitely a
• 31:15
  Speaker 8: lot of insecurities going into this whole thing, Like you
• 31:17
  Speaker 8: don't know like how people are gonna perceive it, how
• 31:19
  Speaker 8: the front office is going to perceive it, how the
• 31:20
  Speaker 8: head coach.
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: Luckily, Rabel was cool with it.
• 31:23
  Speaker 8: He was one of our first guests on the podcast,
• 31:24
  Speaker 8: kind of giving that stamp of approval, which made me.
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: Feel a lot better.
• 31:28
  Speaker 8: For me, what people don't realize about the NFL, especially
• 31:32
  Speaker 8: in the off season, is I can do all the
• 31:33
  Speaker 8: training in the world. I can train all day, every
• 31:37
  Speaker 8: day and still do this and it shouldn't be an issue.
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah again an hour. You know what I'm saying.
• 31:43
  Speaker 8: And I wish I could get to a point where
• 31:46
  Speaker 8: I would go and do this during the season. But
• 31:48
  Speaker 8: you guys know, and you've been away from it for
• 31:50
  Speaker 8: a while. But the ebbs and flow of the season,
• 31:53
  Speaker 8: wins and losses. Even if I have a good game
• 31:55
  Speaker 8: but we lose and I go on a podcast the
• 31:57
  Speaker 8: next day, it's like, how does that look. I can
• 32:00
  Speaker 8: compartmentalize it and be like, hey, I'm just doing this
• 32:02
  Speaker 8: for an hour.
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: It could be an outlet for me.
• 32:04
  Speaker 8: But the hardest thing is like understanding when you go
• 32:07
  Speaker 8: on Twitter, you go on social media, and people are
• 32:08
  Speaker 8: saying things about you from an emotional standpoint, it's really
• 32:11
  Speaker 8: hard to separate the two and people saying things about you.
• 32:13
  Speaker 8: But if I had looked at it and be like, Okay,
• 32:15
  Speaker 8: these people don't know me, they don't know my work ethic, like.
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: I am or you know who you are? Yeah?
• 32:21
  Speaker 8: Or yeah, oh yeah, I know who I am. When
• 32:23
  Speaker 8: I go and focus on football. Ask any of my friends,
• 32:26
  Speaker 8: my wife, Like, I am maybe too focused on football
• 32:29
  Speaker 8: at times, hyper focus, especially coming back from ACL No, Hey,
• 32:34
  Speaker 8: I was, I was treading some lines there for a
• 32:36
  Speaker 8: little bit.
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 32:36
  Speaker 8: I was like there's like, yeah, you know, I think
• 32:39
  Speaker 8: it's okay to be obsessed. But it was like it's
• 32:42
  Speaker 8: everything I'm doing, you know what I'm saying. Like there
• 32:44
  Speaker 8: were times I wouldn't come to pods just because like
• 32:47
  Speaker 8: I just wanted to go. I had to go do football,
• 32:50
  Speaker 8: you know what I'm saying. And having this is really
• 32:52
  Speaker 8: helped like a therapy for that because I get to
• 32:55
  Speaker 8: sit here and talk and if I have something to
• 32:57
  Speaker 8: say about week one, like I have so many times
• 32:59
  Speaker 8: before the opportunity to out of my own mouth without
• 33:02
  Speaker 8: a media member asking or waiting till Wednesday when I
• 33:04
  Speaker 8: have to go talk to the media or something like.
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: That, and you know, it's just it's hard.
• 33:09
  Speaker 8: But when you're in it, like when week won't happen,
• 33:13
  Speaker 8: like that night will came over and we just were
• 33:15
  Speaker 8: just on the couch. We didn't really talk and I
• 33:17
  Speaker 8: kind of just kept saying, We're like, damn, that shit
• 33:20
  Speaker 8: just happened, you know what.
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: I'm saying, you just kept watching the film. I just
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: kept watching the film.
• 33:24
  Speaker 8: And the farther you get away from Like right now,
• 33:27
  Speaker 8: I have no problem joking about that, because that's not
• 33:29
  Speaker 8: how my season end.
• 33:30
  Speaker 7: I mean to cut you all though.
• 33:31
  Speaker 6: Yeah, Like I think that's the Like that was dope
• 33:34
  Speaker 6: to me that you said, you know what, I kept
• 33:36
  Speaker 6: watching the film. Like people don't understand how much it
• 33:39
  Speaker 6: matters to us, right, you know what I'm saying, Like
• 33:41
  Speaker 6: they always like fans think that they care more about
• 33:45
  Speaker 6: what happens on game day than we do, and like
• 33:48
  Speaker 6: they're they're efing live bro.
• 33:53
  Speaker 8: At the same time, we've all been with teammates that
• 33:56
  Speaker 8: maybe don't care as much as those fans that have
• 33:58
  Speaker 8: been around there forever.
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: I'm not one of those.
• 34:00
  Speaker 8: People, but we all we have all played I played Michigan.
• 34:02
  Speaker 8: There were some guys there early in my career, the Titans.
• 34:04
  Speaker 8: There were guys like that that are kind of just
• 34:06
  Speaker 8: here to collect the check, you know, win, loser, draw.
• 34:08
  Speaker 8: It's like, hey, we're still I'm still getting paid and so,
• 34:11
  Speaker 8: but that usually weeds itself out. The passion usually weeds
• 34:14
  Speaker 8: itself out. And so, like I said before, when you're
• 34:17
  Speaker 8: when you have a week one experience of the I did,
• 34:20
  Speaker 8: giving up two sacks.
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: A shipload of hits, a shipload of pressures.
• 34:24
  Speaker 3: It's ducks.
• 34:24
  Speaker 8: But the farther you get away from it, it's like,
• 34:27
  Speaker 8: like I said before, I can joke about that now,
• 34:29
  Speaker 8: like that's not how my season ended.
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: That wasn't my season.
• 34:32
  Speaker 10: I see my last two other dynamic is beautiful.
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: I'm the big brother of the crew.
• 34:39
  Speaker 10: Yeah, but just two years I was playing for Miami
• 34:42
  Speaker 10: and I started a Friday night show because Freddy no
• 34:45
  Speaker 10: Friday is Ana. So I started a Friday show. And
• 34:50
  Speaker 10: I have a radio show in South Florida right now. No,
• 34:55
  Speaker 10: it's a seven sixty AM, but I have a I
• 35:00
  Speaker 10: had a show, but those same stations, I did a
• 35:03
  Speaker 10: show my fifth year and they had they had like
• 35:08
  Speaker 10: a I had the first locker because none of my
• 35:12
  Speaker 10: coaches wanted me to be around you guys, because I
• 35:15
  Speaker 10: just talked shipped to people like I would make fun
• 35:17
  Speaker 10: of everything. He's fucking vans. Look at these dirty motherfuckers.

• 35:35
  Speaker 10: Veneers you have in your mouth, like your teeth are beautiful.
• 35:39
  Speaker 10: I should get veneers, but I don't want to.
• 35:41
  Speaker 3: These are my god given teeth. God didn't give you
• 35:43
  Speaker 3: those teeth.
• 35:44
  Speaker 8: That is like, that's a huge when we're happy he

• 36:09
  Speaker 10: So so that that that was the whole thing about,
• 36:13
  Speaker 10: like that concept of it, but with the what the
• 36:18
  Speaker 10: was I talking about?
• 36:21
  Speaker 8: Balancing the radio show and once you around there, once
• 36:24

  Speaker 2: But that's what juggling and juggling your your media and
• 40:30
  Speaker 2: the media.
• 40:31
  Speaker 3: That's what happened.
• 40:31
  Speaker 10: So the media, once you get into the like, once
• 40:34
  Speaker 10: you see the media, is that people really want to
• 40:36
  Speaker 10: like they embrace that an athlete that is especial, that
• 40:40
  Speaker 10: something can also talk and articulate itself and kind of
• 40:44
  Speaker 10: break down things.
• 40:45
  Speaker 3: And now I've been in the Miami media market for now.
• 40:47
  Speaker 10: For eleven years because of the fact that that, like
• 40:50
  Speaker 10: I was, like, they pay people to talk.
• 40:53
  Speaker 2: I think, I think a big pay wild talk and
• 40:57
  Speaker 2: a big difference. A big difference with those two things
• 40:59
  Speaker 2: too is knowing that we have busting and tailor's you know,
• 41:02
  Speaker 2: the expectation the first round of the highest money and
• 41:05
  Speaker 2: stuff like that. Knowing that a radio show couldn't pay
• 41:07
  Speaker 2: him a thousand dollars and we have our own thing
• 41:10
  Speaker 2: and media can't really mess with us or actually talk
• 41:13
  Speaker 2: to him one on one or have him do the
• 41:15
  Speaker 2: vocal him and his you know, silver tongue and everything
• 41:17
  Speaker 2: else and use it. They can nitpick at being like, oh,
• 41:20
  Speaker 2: you know, he might be too focused on bust when
• 41:22
  Speaker 2: the boys are podcasting over playing football. He's he could
• 41:26
  Speaker 2: be more of a judgmental aspect, whether as for you
• 41:29
  Speaker 2: or anybody who gets paid to do these radio segments.
• 41:31
  Speaker 2: You're part of the media, You're part of those guys.
• 41:33
  Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying, like, oh, you know, he's
• 41:35
  Speaker 2: one of us. They're not gonna say nothing. But since
• 41:37
  Speaker 2: we're kind of standing alone and kind of doing our
• 41:39
  Speaker 2: own thing, I feel like it can it can be
• 41:41
  Speaker 2: a little bit more of a target.
• 41:42
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 41:42
  Speaker 4: I mean, it's an easy target because it always going
• 41:45
  Speaker 4: to come down to wins and losses, right, that's all
• 41:48
  Speaker 4: you're winning.
• 41:48
  Speaker 1: Ain't nobody giving.
• 41:49
  Speaker 4: A fuck about what you guys are doing, right, Nobody cares.
• 41:52
  Speaker 4: They're actually encouraging it. They want to see that you're
• 41:54
  Speaker 4: doing something outside of football because they don't want you
• 41:57
  Speaker 4: to get lost in this whole mental fuck of being
• 42:02
  Speaker 4: in the you know, in the building. You know a
• 42:04
  Speaker 4: lot of guys they fucking go crazy, you know, and
• 42:06
  Speaker 4: they think all these football players and the athletes, they
• 42:09
  Speaker 4: don't have outlets, and they're mentally challenging, fucked up in
• 42:13
  Speaker 4: the long run. So when you're winning, people encourage that, right,
• 42:18
  Speaker 4: But when you're losing, they're they're saying, look, I focus
• 42:20
  Speaker 4: on your fucking day.
• 42:21
  Speaker 1: Job, you know what I'm saying.
• 42:23
  Speaker 4: So it really depends on what day of the week
• 42:26
  Speaker 4: it is, right, what week it is, and and the
• 42:29
  Speaker 4: mood that they're in. But you can't base your life
• 42:32
  Speaker 4: and what you're doing off of I think I was
• 42:35
  Speaker 4: that perception.
• 42:37
  Speaker 2: I would say the risk is you play yourself out
• 42:39
  Speaker 2: were I was lucky in the second year of doing
• 42:42
  Speaker 2: it because when I was with the States for a
• 42:44
  Speaker 2: couple of coffee, got cut, got an injury settlement, and
• 42:46
  Speaker 2: then went out to Oakland, we had so many episodes
• 42:48
  Speaker 2: backlog where I wasn't putting myself out there on a
• 42:51
  Speaker 2: weekly basis, so that helped me out. And then the
• 42:53
  Speaker 2: following year being with Tennessee, I feel like we were
• 42:56
  Speaker 2: lucky because we went eleven and five in the regular season,
• 42:59
  Speaker 2: Like Fred was say, when you're in, everything's a lot better.
• 43:01
  Speaker 2: If we would have been losing, I would have been
• 43:02
  Speaker 2: a little more like cautious. It was COVID year, Taylor
• 43:05
  Speaker 2: like Tory r acl. Unfortunately Taylor Tori s a cl
• 43:12
  Speaker 2: but in the team of busting, he was able to
• 43:15
  Speaker 2: do busting because we couldn't be on the bus at
• 43:16
  Speaker 2: the same time.
• 43:17
  Speaker 1: Because of COVID.
• 43:18
  Speaker 2: So I was playing, he would do busting and then
• 43:19
  Speaker 2: we got back on the bus together. This year, going
• 43:22
  Speaker 2: into the Vegas I didn't really care because I know
• 43:25
  Speaker 2: how we're dealing with busting and how we're building this
• 43:27
  Speaker 2: thing out. So I knew like, if I play this year,
• 43:30
  Speaker 2: I played great. If not, then it's it's all good.
• 43:33
  Speaker 2: But I wanted to play on a team where the
• 43:35
  Speaker 2: staff knew me and the players knew me, like either
• 43:37
  Speaker 2: the Titans Falcus with coach Arthur Smith, Packers with Ko
• 43:41
  Speaker 2: and Lafleur, or Vegas with Pasacia. So when I got
• 43:44
  Speaker 2: there in Vegas, Basat's like, hey, busting with the boys.
• 43:46
  Speaker 2: Whooped the whoop, And I was like, we have a
• 43:48
  Speaker 2: couple in the library, but the dude, I'll probably have
• 43:50
  Speaker 2: a couple of our guys come out, we might shoot
• 43:52
  Speaker 2: a couple because we have sponsors that we have to
• 43:55
  Speaker 2: do this for. And that was the amount of money
• 43:58
  Speaker 2: I was getting on the back half of that. It's
• 44:00
  Speaker 2: kind of like, you know, we can we we were
• 44:02
  Speaker 2: doing just fine with busting Tour.
• 44:03
  Speaker 1: I would have not played. They were cool with it,
• 44:06
  Speaker 1: but I would.
• 44:07
  Speaker 2: Have opted to be like, you know, I can step
• 44:09
  Speaker 2: away with busting.
• 44:10
  Speaker 8: I think I'm gonna really good situation because if we
• 44:12
  Speaker 8: have a really good coach, like I think I think Rabel,
• 44:17
  Speaker 8: the way he prepares the guys, you know, he just
• 44:19
  Speaker 8: knows ball in and out. We have this thing called
• 44:20
  Speaker 8: Friday Tape, and he just shows all these plays throughout
• 44:23
  Speaker 8: the week, whether it was a week ago, two weeks ago,
• 44:25
  Speaker 8: three weeks ago, of certain situations. An example of that
• 44:28
  Speaker 8: would be the Raiders Bengals game in the Wildcard when
• 44:31
  Speaker 8: they had the kickoff and the guy who will return
• 44:33
  Speaker 8: the ball, he touched the ball then sits at a
• 44:35
  Speaker 8: bounce and he's explaining to guys, listen, if you put
• 44:38
  Speaker 8: your foot at a bounce and then touch the ball,
• 44:40
  Speaker 8: and now the ball's dead and that penalty applies and
• 44:43
  Speaker 8: you're now you're not in the three yard line anymore
• 44:45
  Speaker 8: as wild as wild that happened.
• 44:48
  Speaker 2: Oh, shout out the boys at Georgia Boot.
• 44:51

  Speaker 2: Georgia Boot is the world's most comfortable boot, and for

• 46:13
  Speaker 8: easy job for me because I think every Rabel has
• 46:17
  Speaker 8: proved himself time and time again in situational football that
• 46:20
  Speaker 8: he knows what he's doing. So when he calls going
• 46:23
  Speaker 8: for two over the extra point because of the penalty
• 46:25
  Speaker 8: and we don't get it, it's just we just didn't
• 46:27
  Speaker 8: get it. It's not because you know as a dumb
• 46:30
  Speaker 8: call like statistically talks about that on pivot like you
• 46:32
  Speaker 8: do you do? You do that running the ball on
• 46:34
  Speaker 8: third and one fourth one I want us to run
• 46:36
  Speaker 8: the ball on third and one, fourth and one.
• 46:37
  Speaker 10: But it's funny though y'all say that, I know where
• 46:41
  Speaker 10: you're going. You play man like that's reckless. But like,
• 46:46
  Speaker 10: do you say that when your coach calls it? You
• 46:50
  Speaker 10: just fucking do your job and try to go something.
• 46:52
  Speaker 10: Now you have to always do your job. Pro bowler,
• 46:57
  Speaker 10: pro bowler. We were pretty good, well now we.
• 47:01
  Speaker 3: Pro bowler.
• 47:02
  Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying.
• 47:06
  Speaker 3: No, no, no, we were both. We were both. Yeah,
• 47:11
  Speaker 3: it was a fluke. That was a fluke.
• 47:14
  Speaker 1: Keep going, keep going.
• 47:15
  Speaker 3: I'm just saying, bro, Bro my real thought. Ryan, I'm sorry.
• 47:17
  Speaker 3: I'm just with ya.
• 47:19
  Speaker 10: But listen, we know football, and that's what y'all said.
• 47:22
  Speaker 10: Both of y'all said that in the last I'm just watching.
• 47:23
  Speaker 10: You know what I'm saying. I'm listening as a player.
• 47:26
  Speaker 10: When your coach makes a decision, we know that decision.
• 47:30
  Speaker 10: We know, Like, Bro, what the fuck are you doing?
• 47:34
  Speaker 10: Like from there, do y'all question it? Do you say something?
• 47:38
  Speaker 10: Do you ever go up to your coach? I had
• 47:40
  Speaker 10: Nick Saban and Cam Cameron and Tony Spruno. I asked
• 47:43
  Speaker 10: some goofy, Cam Cameron, we want to fit in? He
• 47:45
  Speaker 10: was a goofy as fuck. We couldn't go up to him.
• 47:49
  Speaker 10: But do y'all like, as a player, if you know
• 47:52
  Speaker 10: a decision was made and all y'all can speak on it.
• 47:55
  Speaker 10: All y'all ballers can speak on it. Do you ever
• 47:57
  Speaker 10: talk to your coach about it? And do you know
• 47:59
  Speaker 10: that that was a decision that was made?
• 48:01
  Speaker 8: Yeah, Fred, you got a word kind of of a
• 48:03
  Speaker 8: tweet right now, so you can probably if you want
• 48:04
  Speaker 8: to go first.
• 48:06
  Speaker 4: I mean to answer that question. You know, it depends
• 48:09
  Speaker 4: on again going back to what you said. Vrabel was great.
• 48:12
  Speaker 4: It's good at so the situation. So you learn these situations,
• 48:18
  Speaker 4: you know, you learn your coach and their philosophies and
• 48:20
  Speaker 4: what they you know they're about and what they believe in.
• 48:23
  Speaker 4: So based on the situation, Yeah, you want to give
• 48:26
  Speaker 4: it a shot if the situation presents itself accordingly, and
• 48:29
  Speaker 4: if it doesn't, then you can question the ship like
• 48:32
  Speaker 4: anything goes right the wait wait wait, wait, wait, At
• 48:36
  Speaker 4: the very end of it all, you know, there's a
• 48:39
  Speaker 4: time and a place for any fucking thing. Uh, you
• 48:42
  Speaker 4: have a job to do, regardless of what the fuck
• 48:45
  Speaker 4: they call if they call it, you get it.
• 48:47
  Speaker 1: It's time to go.
• 48:47
  Speaker 4: You're not going to question it in that moment because
• 48:51
  Speaker 4: if you're thinking, and if you hesitate, you can you
• 48:53
  Speaker 4: ask it.
• 48:53
  Speaker 1: No question.
• 48:54
  Speaker 4: So no question about that, right, So you don't question it.
• 48:58
  Speaker 1: In the moment.
• 48:58
  Speaker 4: You can always go back in hindsight and say, fuck,
• 49:02
  Speaker 4: that was stupid. But if you execute, what are you
• 49:04
  Speaker 4: gonna say? Good fucking call? That's like the whole fucking
• 49:07
  Speaker 4: Monday morning.
• 49:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you know what I'm saying.
• 49:11
  Speaker 4: So, I mean, even though the ship with Derrick Henry
• 49:16
  Speaker 4: going forward, and I mean if he executed, if you
• 49:19
  Speaker 4: guys converted, hear us, who the fuck is going to say?
• 49:22
  Speaker 1: And it's like, what if.
• 49:23
  Speaker 4: Nobody's gonna say, go for to no one's gonna say
• 49:25
  Speaker 4: a thing.
• 49:26
  Speaker 3: Y'all go to the bathroom on the bus.
• 49:28
  Speaker 1: You're more than welcome, welcome to go.
• 49:30
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you can ride, you can walk out then come
• 49:32
  Speaker 3: back in.
• 49:33
  Speaker 1: Okay, we have a philosophy here, do what you want.
• 49:35
  Speaker 3: Okay, Yeah, I.
• 49:36
  Speaker 10: Have a I have a medium sized tis.
• 49:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 49:41
  Speaker 8: Oh that's still min bro, one level higher than man.
• 49:43
  Speaker 8: I appreciate you for putting that out there.
• 49:46
  Speaker 6: I think that's like the dope thing about the space
• 49:49
  Speaker 6: you know that we're in you know, in the space
• 49:51
  Speaker 6: that you guys have created, Like I wouldn't have come
• 49:53
  Speaker 6: on here if I thought we had to be like
• 49:55
  Speaker 6: super buttoned.
• 49:56
  Speaker 7: Up and yeah and all these things. Do you it hard?
• 50:00
  Speaker 1: Though?
• 50:01
  Speaker 6: Because you guys are current players like I don't play
• 50:03
  Speaker 6: no more. Do you find it hard to kind of
• 50:05
  Speaker 6: like double dutch in between those lanes?
• 50:08
  Speaker 1: Me personally, not not as much, not anymore really when it.
• 50:11
  Speaker 8: Comes to talk, I've kind of just instically been myself.
• 50:14
  Speaker 8: I've tried to be the button up guy before and
• 50:15
  Speaker 8: it just doesn't work for me.
• 50:16
  Speaker 2: So yeah, I feel like, yeah, I just try and
• 50:20
  Speaker 2: be the same person on the bus on social media
• 50:23
  Speaker 2: so people understand like what they're getting at all times.
• 50:25
  Speaker 2: The only times I feel any type of way about
• 50:27
  Speaker 2: it is when I am playing on a team, and
• 50:29
  Speaker 2: not more so because I think anybody doesn't like it,
• 50:32
  Speaker 2: because guys do like the concept to bust with the
• 50:34
  Speaker 2: boys and everything else. But you have so much fun
• 50:37
  Speaker 2: and we're so loose that I don't want it to
• 50:39
  Speaker 2: carry over to make to make the team think I'm looser,
• 50:43
  Speaker 2: don't care about what's going on in football. You get
• 50:46
  Speaker 2: around the warfare, right and once, like once I got
• 50:48
  Speaker 2: out with the Raiders and stuff, and you know you're
• 50:50
  Speaker 2: going in the days are long, you guys knowing all
• 50:52
  Speaker 2: the time that all these guys put in. And it's
• 50:54
  Speaker 2: not that I don't care about as much as these guys,
• 50:56
  Speaker 2: but you're just you get around all these dudes, and
• 50:58
  Speaker 2: Basashi always says that respect each other's work and stop,
• 51:01
  Speaker 2: you know, get out of your own story, get out
• 51:03
  Speaker 2: of your own shit, and respect what.
• 51:04
  Speaker 1: People are doing around you.
• 51:05
  Speaker 2: I think when you witness that stuff, you just have
• 51:07
  Speaker 2: like a different respect of like you don't want to
• 51:10
  Speaker 2: act a certain way all the time because you don't
• 51:12
  Speaker 2: want guys to think that everything's.
• 51:13
  Speaker 1: A fucking joke. It's not. You'ally gonna stay in the Raiders.
• 51:17
  Speaker 1: I don't know if they're going through a full process.
• 51:19
  Speaker 3: Like this is my opinion.
• 51:21
  Speaker 6: I feel like amongst all the coaches they interview, he
• 51:25
  Speaker 6: deserves a chance.
• 51:26
  Speaker 8: Right, you know, Like you know what Wills told me
• 51:28
  Speaker 8: and all that players, they fucking love that.
• 51:31
  Speaker 1: I'm sure Ryan sees all that same stuff.
• 51:32
  Speaker 6: So my thing is this, bro, And you know, if
• 51:36
  Speaker 6: I speak out of Turnhill, let me know, bro, Like
• 51:38
  Speaker 6: I'm totally comfortable with that. You have a two thousand
• 51:43
  Speaker 6: and nineteen first or two thousand and twenty first.
• 51:47
  Speaker 7: Round pick that has a tragedy.
• 51:49
  Speaker 6: Yeah, in Henry Rugs, you have Damon Arnette who has
• 51:53
  Speaker 6: another situation where he's no longer a first a member
• 51:59
  Speaker 6: of the team.
• 52:00
  Speaker 1: You have a coach too, whether.
• 52:02
  Speaker 6: It's through emails from back in the day or whatever
• 52:04
  Speaker 6: it is, he sends your team into really turmoil. Right,
• 52:08
  Speaker 6: this is a guy you expect to have for the
• 52:10
  Speaker 6: next eight years because he's not a ten year deal
• 52:12
  Speaker 6: and leading the division at the time, right, And so
• 52:15
  Speaker 6: what rich Basacea was able to do and stabilize this
• 52:20
  Speaker 6: team and get it to the playoffs, I don't feel
• 52:23
  Speaker 6: like you can ignore that. I don't feel like that's
• 52:25
  Speaker 6: that's something that you can say, is it important, It's
• 52:30
  Speaker 6: something that you can say doesn't matter. And it also
• 52:34
  Speaker 6: I always feel like it's different when it's in your building, right,
• 52:37
  Speaker 6: Like I don't know what Taylor Luwan is truly doing
• 52:41
  Speaker 6: in Tennessee or what Will Compton is truly doing in
• 52:45
  Speaker 6: Las Vegas if I'm not there. But if I'm in
• 52:48
  Speaker 6: Las Vegas and I'm and I got like a you know,
• 52:52
  Speaker 6: and I got the dumb and dumber haircut, you know
• 52:54
  Speaker 6: what I'm saying. And my last name's Davis, and my
• 52:58
  Speaker 6: name is Mark the first name. You know, I have
• 53:01
  Speaker 6: to be able to see what's going on within my
• 53:04
  Speaker 6: own house, you know what I'm saying, Like my old
• 53:07
  Speaker 6: lady don't get to do stuff that I don't understand,
• 53:11
  Speaker 6: Like she doesn't because I'm gonna ask her about it.
• 53:14
  Speaker 6: And to get this team to the playoffs, to fight
• 53:16
  Speaker 6: the way they did the last month of the season,
• 53:18
  Speaker 6: basically being in playoff situations, for Derek Carr to continue
• 53:22
  Speaker 6: to engineer last minute drives, like I feel like you
• 53:26
  Speaker 6: have to at least give Rich Pasaccia the same opportunity
• 53:30
  Speaker 6: you give everybody.
• 53:36
  Speaker 4: I totally agree with you that, Ryan, I believe that.
• 53:41
  Speaker 4: I really believe that when you look at a lot
• 53:43
  Speaker 4: of these uh, when you look at a lot of
• 53:45
  Speaker 4: interim coaches, you know they tend to take over, you know,
• 53:50
  Speaker 4: way long past the halfway point in the season, right,
• 53:54
  Speaker 4: and you know when you look at it, they get
• 53:57
  Speaker 4: an interview pretty much out of the called courtesy. But
• 54:02
  Speaker 4: when you have you know, a coach like right, I
• 54:07
  Speaker 4: don't want to butcher his name, Uh, you know who
• 54:10
  Speaker 4: took over when he took over in the fact that
• 54:13
  Speaker 4: they played really well. Uh, the chemistry stayed intact when
• 54:17
  Speaker 4: the adversity it could have went the other way quick right, Uh,
• 54:22
  Speaker 4: based on the.
• 54:22
  Speaker 1: Guys in the locker room.
• 54:24
  Speaker 4: You know, if you lose your head, man, I've got
• 54:26
  Speaker 4: a lot of guys believed in there that that former coach.
• 54:28
  Speaker 4: I don't really want to well, people know it's grout,
• 54:31
  Speaker 4: I know, right, that wouldn't be politically correct.
• 54:34
  Speaker 1: Uh, but a.
• 54:35
  Speaker 4: Lot of guys tend to follow coaches, and the coaches
• 54:38
  Speaker 4: inspire certain players. So if if that mix and that
• 54:41
  Speaker 4: chemistry is tempered with, then you can lose the entire
• 54:45
  Speaker 4: locker room. You know, like if you guys lost Mike
• 54:48
  Speaker 4: coach Rabel, then you know, certain guys are going to
• 54:51
  Speaker 4: feel a certain type of way. Some guys will probably yeah,
• 54:53
  Speaker 4: that fucker, tough fucker or whatever he's done. But then
• 54:55
  Speaker 4: you have you know, maybe majority of I'm like fuck,
• 54:59
  Speaker 4: and then there's a certain cl out over the team.
• 55:01
  Speaker 1: Same thing.
• 55:01
  Speaker 4: And uh and in Las Vegas now, so even with
• 55:07
  Speaker 4: the interim coach that stepped in, you know a lot
• 55:10
  Speaker 4: of guys say, I like this environment, I like this chemistry,
• 55:13
  Speaker 4: I like what we were able to do let's build
• 55:15
  Speaker 4: on it. Give them a fucking interview. Yeah, give him
• 55:18
  Speaker 4: an opportunity, right, But that was more more than a
• 55:26
  Speaker 4: curcy interviews.
• 55:27
  Speaker 7: See is basically we're gonna put you in an interview just.
• 55:30
  Speaker 1: To say so people more than that.
• 55:34
  Speaker 2: We've all been on teams like Ryan we were, we
• 55:36
  Speaker 2: were on the Redskins together, and we're walking around and
• 55:38
  Speaker 2: you kind of know what's happening when the end of
• 55:40
  Speaker 2: the year habits. You kind of having those conversations with
• 55:42
  Speaker 2: coaches in the exit meetings. You understand when people are
• 55:44
  Speaker 2: c y a covering your own ass and will I'm
• 55:47
  Speaker 2: telling you, like after we got clapped by the Chiefs
• 55:50
  Speaker 2: because that was my first week there, and then we
• 55:51
  Speaker 2: go on that four game.
• 55:52
  Speaker 1: Win Street Raiders. Yeah, when I'm with the Raiders.
• 55:55
  Speaker 2: And you kind of know whether you want you're playing
• 55:58
  Speaker 2: for the coach or not. Like to the last I
• 56:01
  Speaker 2: wasn't there in that playoff game. I wish I was,
• 56:03
  Speaker 2: but I know to the last minute, to the last play,
• 56:06
  Speaker 2: Like in the locker room, you're not only staft for
• 56:08
  Speaker 2: yourself and that you failed in the playoffs. I'll get
• 56:12
  Speaker 2: into that, you're upset because you wanted coach Pistacia da
• 56:17
  Speaker 2: as much of a clear shot as possible to keep
• 56:19
  Speaker 2: the team. That's how much dudes loved him. And uh,
• 56:23
  Speaker 2: I was only around the Raiders for a total of
• 56:25
  Speaker 2: those two years, like eleven different eleven games and Pisace
• 56:28
  Speaker 2: I want to say alec Ingolds he came on the
• 56:30
  Speaker 2: pod not too long ago, but he said it best.
• 56:32
  Speaker 2: He not only coaches the player, but he coaches the
• 56:34
  Speaker 2: man like he coaches hard.
• 56:36
  Speaker 1: He's a motherfucker.
• 56:37
  Speaker 5: Now.
• 56:37
  Speaker 1: Sometimes you don't know if he likes you.
• 56:38
  Speaker 2: But you know he cares about you deeply because he
• 56:41
  Speaker 2: has those side conversations. He hits you on the chest
• 56:43
  Speaker 2: and he tells you whenever I hit you on the chest,
• 56:45
  Speaker 2: I want you to know that I'm hitting you on
• 56:47
  Speaker 2: the herd.
• 56:51
  Speaker 1: Job Like. That's just an.
• 56:52
  Speaker 2: Example of literally everybody who would play for this dude.
• 56:56
  Speaker 2: It's it's hard to explain. And you know, I'm gonna
• 56:58
  Speaker 2: get a couple of guys on here in due time
• 56:59
  Speaker 2: to kind to talk about it a little bit more. Uh,
• 57:01
  Speaker 2: since I only played with them eleven games, But he's
• 57:05
  Speaker 2: just there's just something about the motherfucker where you're just like, yo,
• 57:07
  Speaker 2: I want to win for this dude, you want to
• 57:09
  Speaker 2: keep him around.
• 57:10
  Speaker 4: You need those motives, need those type players, those coaches.
• 57:14
  Speaker 4: They're more than just coaches.
• 57:16
  Speaker 1: No, no, Ryan, will you No?
• 57:18
  Speaker 3: Your teeth is stupid?

• 1:04:07
  Speaker 2: I understand or I try to understand everything going on

  Speaker 2: you guys, go back check out the episode I'm telling.
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 1: You is phenomenal.
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 2: But you were speaking to the ideologies, the fundamentals of
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 2: the vision that seem to change over time. And again
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 2: being a fan of I Am Athlete, I Am nascars
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 2: come along you had im athlete Miami, I am athlete, La,
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 2: I am woman. So many political cultural things that you
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 2: guys are speaking on.
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 3: Can you speak to what.
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 2: Exactly you were talking about when you said the fundamentals
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 2: and ideologies or was it simply business came into the
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 2: table and you guys just didn't see it the same
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 2: and you guys just had to break up that way you.
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 4: A linebacker will because you you that was pretty fucking impressed.
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 1: That appreciate that was that was that.
• 1:05:21
  Speaker 11: Was that was sexy, right, That was that was pretty I'll.
• 1:05:27
  Speaker 3: Say, first off, like.
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 8: You just said, you're gonna let fred I was just
• 1:05:31
  Speaker 8: make sure you might stressed off.
• 1:05:33
  Speaker 10: Mare is gonna say, Getting with getting with r C
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 10: was one of like he was our first option where
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 10: we had to pivot, and we planned the pivot and
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 10: RC is a great dude, great man, known him for
• 1:05:45
  Speaker 10: years and all that. So from there, you know, it
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 10: was it was a it was a transition and it
• 1:05:51
  Speaker 10: was it was a fundamental and the ideology thought of
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 10: what's going on. But I think Fred has a different
• 1:05:58
  Speaker 10: thought or you know what I'm saying, His thought on
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 10: it is different than.
• 1:06:02
  Speaker 3: Mine because.
• 1:06:05
  Speaker 10: I'm more I'm more of the just move forward with
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 10: my homeboys type stuff, you know what I'm saying.
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 3: So whatever whatever Fred.
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 4: Got so really, you know, really speaking from the bottom
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 4: of my heart, you know, we didn't just pick Ryan
• 1:06:21
  Speaker 4: up on the side of the road. Obviously, he you know,
• 1:06:24
  Speaker 4: he has a track record everything he does, you know, superseds,
• 1:06:28
  Speaker 4: you know what he does, Like, he's just amazing at
• 1:06:32
  Speaker 4: everything it does, ESPN, the different podcasts that he's been on,
• 1:06:35
  Speaker 4: et cetera, et cetera. So for us, it was a
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 4: blessing in the skies to be able to join together
• 1:06:41
  Speaker 4: with Ryan, create a company, create our show and really
• 1:06:45
  Speaker 4: just try and push the culture.
• 1:06:48
  Speaker 7: I don't mean to cut Fred finish. I'm I'm about
• 1:06:54
  Speaker 7: to stop your flower now, I'm about to stop.
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 3: Though.
• 1:06:57
  Speaker 6: I think the biggest thing that Fred said was created company.
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 1: Right, because we created it. So I'll go back to that, right.
• 1:07:04
  Speaker 4: So with that, we were able to create a company
• 1:07:07
  Speaker 4: and learn from our previous failures. Because as as as
• 1:07:12
  Speaker 4: as black men, right, not just black men, as men
• 1:07:17
  Speaker 4: former athletes, we always push business, making sure you have
• 1:07:21
  Speaker 4: your business button up. You know, we learn a lot.
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 4: You come into the NFL, you come into a such
• 1:07:27
  Speaker 4: young age. You got agents and all these different people
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 4: doing stuff for you, and throughout those processes.
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 1: You learn a little bit. You learn along the way.
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 4: Some guys are more focused on football, they don't try
• 1:07:39
  Speaker 4: and learn the business side of it. So that sort
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 4: of it through through through being taken advantage of. I
• 1:07:47
  Speaker 4: had to learn the business side of it right, whether
• 1:07:50
  Speaker 4: it was by financial advisors, from an agent or whatever.
• 1:07:52
  Speaker 4: So I said, I'll never let that happen again. So
• 1:07:55
  Speaker 4: when we entered into it was r of twenty twenty,
• 1:08:02
  Speaker 4: during the quarantine we called it Quarantine Dreams, you know,
• 1:08:06
  Speaker 4: our former co host and Brandon he stopped by and say, look, guys,
• 1:08:10
  Speaker 4: you mind doing the podcast?
• 1:08:11
  Speaker 1: What do you think about the podcast? Fuck?
• 1:08:13
  Speaker 4: We all get let's get out the house. Let's do it,
• 1:08:15
  Speaker 4: let's make it, have it happened, Quarantine Dreams. We agreed
• 1:08:19
  Speaker 4: to it, and the show just took off. The show
• 1:08:22
  Speaker 4: went much faster than the paperwork the night overnight. The
• 1:08:27
  Speaker 4: business wasn't you know, we didn't take care of the business.
• 1:08:29
  Speaker 4: So from that standpoint, and really going back to our
• 1:08:32
  Speaker 4: first episode in the pivot, right, we took the high road.
• 1:08:37
  Speaker 1: We decided to take the high road because a.
• 1:08:39
  Speaker 4: Lot of the ideal I did a lot of it,
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 4: a little less ideologies, thank you.
• 1:08:45
  Speaker 1: Fundamental that was my word.
• 1:08:48
  Speaker 5: I know, I know, no, no, I got it, but
• 1:08:51
  Speaker 5: I'm talking fast, yea, no, So a lot of those fundamentals, right,
• 1:08:56
  Speaker 5: we we we had a lot of visions, you know,
• 1:08:59
  Speaker 5: we talked a lot about a lot of things.
• 1:09:02
  Speaker 4: And because we didn't have the business button up, you know,
• 1:09:05
  Speaker 4: because Brandon made the initial investment, he took it upon
• 1:09:09
  Speaker 4: himself to gain majority of the control and the ideas.
• 1:09:14
  Speaker 1: And the things that came into place.
• 1:09:17
  Speaker 4: Fast forward to let's just say marsh of twenty twenty one.
• 1:09:22
  Speaker 4: We had a second meeting trying to iron out some things.
• 1:09:25
  Speaker 4: That conversation really didn't go as we all thought. The
• 1:09:29
  Speaker 4: buy in sort of was about twenty four, you know,
• 1:09:33
  Speaker 4: the valuation of the company, the investment didn't look the same.
• 1:09:37
  Speaker 4: It was like, but we're buddies, but the business wasn't
• 1:09:39
  Speaker 4: tightened up on one end. And then the whole buddy.
• 1:09:42
  Speaker 1: Conversation was pretty much thrown out the window.
• 1:09:45
  Speaker 4: And from there, you know, things sorted to you know,
• 1:09:47
  Speaker 4: we still serviced the show, although we didn't have any
• 1:09:52
  Speaker 4: real skin in the game. We were just merely talent
• 1:09:54
  Speaker 4: at that point and not really doing it for what
• 1:09:57
  Speaker 4: we thought we would do it for, which was ownership.
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 4: So fast forward, man, and uh, still taking the higher
• 1:10:04
  Speaker 4: high road a bit, because a lot of people's livelihoods
• 1:10:08
  Speaker 4: are at stake, and I don't want to talk too
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 4: much about it.
• 1:10:13
  Speaker 1: And that's old news now. You know. We're not competing
• 1:10:16
  Speaker 1: against them.
• 1:10:17
  Speaker 4: We're just trying to create content bridges, man, and give
• 1:10:19
  Speaker 4: the people something to enjoy, you know, saying organically and
• 1:10:24
  Speaker 4: through good conversation. I was saying a second to go,
• 1:10:27
  Speaker 4: Rain is amazing. So he he helps us, He helps
• 1:10:31
  Speaker 4: us a ton, and uh, you know, we we do
• 1:10:34
  Speaker 4: what we do. Channing he's the he's the asshole. He's
• 1:10:37
  Speaker 4: always going to be, you know, Listen, then I talked right,
• 1:10:44
  Speaker 4: and always the perception is I am smarter than.
• 1:10:49
  Speaker 1: What comes to because I listened, I'm not smarter than.
• 1:10:54
  Speaker 3: The thing is when we developed the show, it's where
• 1:10:57
  Speaker 3: you have.
• 1:10:58
  Speaker 10: You have to like what That's why you called it
• 1:10:59
  Speaker 10: a p it and that's why we it wasn't it
• 1:11:01
  Speaker 10: wasn't a mistake.
• 1:11:02
  Speaker 3: R See was it a mistake? The pivot?
• 1:11:05
  Speaker 10: You know what I'm saying, Like it wasn't like we
• 1:11:08
  Speaker 10: just it was overnight, like we saw, we saw what
• 1:11:10
  Speaker 10: was going on, and we said we had to move
• 1:11:12
  Speaker 10: in a different direction business wise.
• 1:11:15
  Speaker 3: And we still love you know what I'm saying.
• 1:11:16
  Speaker 10: We still we still support everything that Be's doing and
• 1:11:20
  Speaker 10: wanted to be successful.
• 1:11:21
  Speaker 3: But we just see like.
• 1:11:24
  Speaker 10: There there's there's a goal, there's a finish line. Everything
• 1:11:28
  Speaker 10: has a finished line. And I would say this about business,
• 1:11:30
  Speaker 10: and I don't know what y'all got going.
• 1:11:32
  Speaker 3: I don't know what y'all got doing. This bus is beautiful.
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 8: Appreciate that, you know what I'm saying, Like it's a
• 1:11:37
  Speaker 8: cool color.
• 1:11:39
  Speaker 7: When I got to be here, it was crazy.
• 1:11:41
  Speaker 3: Hey Taylor, Taylor, listen, you think I didn't tell you
• 1:11:44
  Speaker 3: it's a very low investment.
• 1:11:46
  Speaker 1: Fucking corkboard put in.
• 1:11:52
  Speaker 3: Yeah for the sound.
• 1:11:53
  Speaker 10: So I know it's a very low investment, but it's
• 1:11:55
  Speaker 10: just the vision of what business was going to be.
• 1:11:58
  Speaker 10: And as we continue to grow, let me know if
• 1:12:01
  Speaker 10: I'm wrong, Freddy, as we continue to grow, the business
• 1:12:05
  Speaker 10: concept wasn't the same. And at some point you have
• 1:12:09
  Speaker 10: to just talk. And we sat down to talk and
• 1:12:10
  Speaker 10: we just did it and was like, no, well, if
• 1:12:12
  Speaker 10: you want to go this way, that's cool, but we
• 1:12:15
  Speaker 10: don't want to go that way. We don't want to
• 1:12:17
  Speaker 10: do you know, we don't want to own gyms. We
• 1:12:19
  Speaker 10: don't want to we don't want to support this. We
• 1:12:21
  Speaker 10: don't want to support that. We want to worry about
• 1:12:23
  Speaker 10: our talent on this podcast. And that's the thing that
• 1:12:27
  Speaker 10: it was just like, listen, we're gonna we're gonna do
• 1:12:30
  Speaker 10: this media platform and that's what we want to do.
• 1:12:34
  Speaker 3: That's all we want to do.
• 1:12:36
  Speaker 10: And I would say, Brandon want to do something bigger
• 1:12:39
  Speaker 10: than that, and that's fine. I didn't believe in it,
• 1:12:43
  Speaker 10: you know, I didn't believe in that bigger, that bigger vision,
• 1:12:46
  Speaker 10: and we just had that we weren't we weren't involved
• 1:12:48
  Speaker 10: in a long game.
• 1:12:52
  Speaker 8: Wanted to do off that you guys weren't involved in that. Yeah,
• 1:12:55
  Speaker 8: I mean we weren't if you guys Miami. And that
• 1:12:59
  Speaker 8: was the no, no, no, not not so much.
• 1:13:01
  Speaker 4: It was you know, from from the start, you know,
• 1:13:05
  Speaker 4: I myself expressed ownership, right and we we we really
• 1:13:10
  Speaker 4: couldn't get the business button up and come to an
• 1:13:13
  Speaker 4: agreement of what those percentages look like.
• 1:13:16
  Speaker 1: And it keeps grown each week. See.
• 1:13:18
  Speaker 4: But that's where it shouldn't be the case because because
• 1:13:22
  Speaker 4: there's a filibuster, you know, happening right in front of me.
• 1:13:25
  Speaker 1: You know, I'm sitting here like what the fuck?
• 1:13:28
  Speaker 4: You know, my sweat is traveling alongside the growth of
• 1:13:32
  Speaker 4: the podcast. So I deferred every dollar, you know, from
• 1:13:37
  Speaker 4: a talent standpoint back into the company. So that travels
• 1:13:42
  Speaker 4: with the company and the business and the and evaluation.
• 1:13:46
  Speaker 4: But if I can't, if I can't get the same valuation,
• 1:13:51
  Speaker 4: you know, uh where where the thought commenced?
• 1:13:56
  Speaker 1: Right?
• 1:13:57
  Speaker 4: Well we all started then then then and there's a problem.
• 1:14:02
  Speaker 4: So those numbers weren't valued appropriately. And I felt that
• 1:14:08
  Speaker 4: that was a bit of slapping the face and and
• 1:14:11
  Speaker 4: this is me just talking my own situation and U
• 1:14:16
  Speaker 4: and with that one, the paperwork.
• 1:14:18
  Speaker 1: Wasn't in place.
• 1:14:19
  Speaker 4: We were trying to figure out that language and what
• 1:14:21
  Speaker 4: that looked like. Uh not just from an equity standpoint,
• 1:14:27
  Speaker 4: because what was offered was revenue sharing. That's more of
• 1:14:30
  Speaker 4: a partnership. In my mind, that's not ownership. Equity is ownership.
• 1:14:34
  Speaker 4: So the conversation was sort of overlapping and confusing from
• 1:14:39
  Speaker 4: that side. I knew exactly what I signed up for.
• 1:14:44
  Speaker 4: So when that we couldn't see eye the eye on that,
• 1:14:46
  Speaker 4: I said, you know what, retroactively, you know, pay me
• 1:14:50
  Speaker 4: and I'll step aside and we'll sign whatever agreements for
• 1:14:53
  Speaker 4: a name, image, likeness so you can keep your content.
• 1:14:57
  Speaker 4: Otherwise I can be a dick and say, you know what,
• 1:15:00
  Speaker 4: we never had any paperwork in place, Let's take down
• 1:15:02
  Speaker 4: all this fucking content. And then that's a bigger problem.
• 1:15:06
  Speaker 4: So we want to be the bad guy.
• 1:15:07
  Speaker 1: What stops you from doing that? I don't want to
• 1:15:09
  Speaker 1: be a bad guy.
• 1:15:11
  Speaker 4: I'm rooting for those guys, you know what, whatever direction
• 1:15:15
  Speaker 4: they go in, I'm really rooting for them because we
• 1:15:18
  Speaker 4: can still have It's a fucking million, fucking it's so
• 1:15:22
  Speaker 4: many people in this country, so many people across the globe.
• 1:15:26
  Speaker 3: Right limited subscribers on YouTube.
• 1:15:29
  Speaker 4: We can we can all do great without the hate,
• 1:15:32
  Speaker 4: without the bs. You know, people want the drum, drum,
• 1:15:38
  Speaker 4: the drama, so we can we can talk that ship
• 1:15:44
  Speaker 4: and and and and and and and have their subscribers
• 1:15:48
  Speaker 4: and other ears and everything else come to the Pivot.
• 1:15:52
  Speaker 4: People are in that space. People aren't loyal and they
• 1:15:55
  Speaker 4: don't have to be. They just want content. They want
• 1:15:58
  Speaker 4: they want to listen to some stuff, they want to
• 1:16:00
  Speaker 4: see some stuff. They want to laugh, They want to
• 1:16:02
  Speaker 4: feel good about themselves, just like sitting here with busting
• 1:16:05
  Speaker 4: with the boys. You guys got you know, you guys
• 1:16:07
  Speaker 4: got your your space and what people want to hear
• 1:16:10
  Speaker 4: and see. And we can come on here and people
• 1:16:12
  Speaker 4: come over and check us out. People from the Pivot
• 1:16:15
  Speaker 4: come check you guys out. They like it, they love it.
• 1:16:18
  Speaker 4: They're gonna stay. They want to hear and see more.
• 1:16:21
  Speaker 4: If they don't, they're gonna keep pushing. But you know
• 1:16:23
  Speaker 4: what I'm saying that it's vice versa. I think it's
• 1:16:27
  Speaker 4: enough for all of us. Want to cut hate, net growth,
• 1:16:32
  Speaker 4: ROI the the overhead, like the business side of things.
• 1:16:37
  Speaker 10: I think a lot of people all black, white, motherfucking
• 1:16:40
  Speaker 10: purple green I don't think people really understand the business
• 1:16:43
  Speaker 10: side of stuff.
• 1:16:44
  Speaker 3: And that's what people need to look into. And that's
• 1:16:47
  Speaker 3: what when Freddie.
• 1:16:47
  Speaker 10: Was talking about like the overhead and the marketing budget
• 1:16:51
  Speaker 10: and all that stuff, like, I don't know how, I
• 1:16:54
  Speaker 10: don't know y'all's business structure.
• 1:16:55
  Speaker 3: I don't know how y'all do it.
• 1:16:56
  Speaker 10: But at some point you got to get to this
• 1:16:59
  Speaker 10: is how much money we bring in is the gross,
• 1:17:02
  Speaker 10: This is how much we spend, and this is how
• 1:17:05
  Speaker 10: much we make, and that's the net. And simply is
• 1:17:08
  Speaker 10: that like, and that's the that's the business thing that
• 1:17:13
  Speaker 10: we didn't know and and we had like, that's that's business.
• 1:17:18
  Speaker 3: What do you bring in, what do you spend, and
• 1:17:20
  Speaker 3: what do you make?
• 1:17:20
  Speaker 1: As a partner, you should be privy to.
• 1:17:22
  Speaker 3: That's.
• 1:17:23
  Speaker 8: Yeah, your responsibility.
• 1:17:25
  Speaker 1: To know those things part of business.
• 1:17:28
  Speaker 3: That's the simplest part of business.
• 1:17:30
  Speaker 10: And that's the part that we you know what I'm saying,
• 1:17:33
  Speaker 10: you figure out and everybody, whatever you do, if it's
• 1:17:36
  Speaker 10: a podcast or whatever you do, that's what you have
• 1:17:39
  Speaker 10: to know.
• 1:17:39
  Speaker 3: And that's the funny thing is that?
• 1:17:41
  Speaker 10: But bro, But real real quick, that's what we have
• 1:17:44
  Speaker 10: a good time. That's what we mess off r C.
• 1:17:46
  Speaker 10: And that's what we like grind to do, and y'all
• 1:17:48
  Speaker 10: grind to do. And I'm like, I love y'all. Y'all said,
• 1:17:51
  Speaker 10: y'all listen, I watched too. I watched Busting with the Boys.
• 1:17:54
  Speaker 3: It's hilarious.
• 1:17:57
  Speaker 2: We got to cross you know, maybe a couple of
• 1:17:59
  Speaker 2: STEMI couple of times a year.
• 1:18:01
  Speaker 1: I'm brand new it. We can know for sure.
• 1:18:06
  Speaker 10: But even that standpoint, like when I when I when
• 1:18:09
  Speaker 10: I watched successful podcast, I think about it.
• 1:18:12
  Speaker 3: I'm like, how much are they making? How much are
• 1:18:15
  Speaker 3: they spending and how much are they really making?
• 1:18:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I think you want first And that's where you know.
• 1:18:22
  Speaker 10: That's where my mind goes whenever I watched a successful thing, Like,
• 1:18:25
  Speaker 10: y'all have to be honest, we didn't know it's crazy.
• 1:18:27
  Speaker 4: I don't know if it's flaw. We just didn't know
• 1:18:29
  Speaker 4: that it was just something. It was just something fun,
• 1:18:33
  Speaker 4: you know. We said, look, it was the yandemic.
• 1:18:38
  Speaker 1: We said, hey, let's just do something with buddies.
• 1:18:40
  Speaker 4: We all knew each other, we had some history, and uh,
• 1:18:43
  Speaker 4: we signed up to do it and we just kept
• 1:18:46
  Speaker 4: doing it, figuring the business was going to take care
• 1:18:48
  Speaker 4: of itself. But you know, I can ensure anyone that's
• 1:18:51
  Speaker 4: out there that's listening handle the business first. And that's
• 1:18:54
  Speaker 4: why the Pivot is going to succeed, because one we
• 1:18:58
  Speaker 4: made sure that asparently we're we're taking.
• 1:19:02
  Speaker 1: Care of the business first. It's all of us.
• 1:19:05
  Speaker 4: We all have the same say, all of our you know,
• 1:19:07
  Speaker 4: us and our partners, whether it's uh from merch memorabilia,
• 1:19:14
  Speaker 4: the marketing, the production, the pivot, you know, the whole
• 1:19:17
  Speaker 4: entire busting with the boys in trouble with the pivot.
• 1:19:20
  Speaker 1: Maybe maybe not. We'll find out. What do you mean
• 1:19:22
  Speaker 1: as far as competitors, I'm just saying that.
• 1:19:25
  Speaker 3: You want to talk.
• 1:19:26
  Speaker 11: I'm just saying we already got this ship buttoned up.
• 1:19:31
  Speaker 1: Hey, y'all are blowing up at an incredible rate. There's
• 1:19:33
  Speaker 1: no question about that.
• 1:19:34
  Speaker 4: But you guys, yeah, appreciate, we hate We hope you
• 1:19:41
  Speaker 4: guys do.
• 1:19:43
  Speaker 1: That's low road.
• 1:19:44
  Speaker 10: I'll go low road fellows. Fellows will love y'all. Y'all,
• 1:19:49
  Speaker 10: y'all please love RC talk because he's back.
• 1:19:53
  Speaker 1: What you got, bro, what we love Ryan?
• 1:19:57
  Speaker 6: I think just being from the outside guy, right, And
• 1:20:01
  Speaker 6: so when when I got the call to have an
• 1:20:04
  Speaker 6: opportunity to work with Channing and Fred. It was a
• 1:20:07
  Speaker 6: difficult call for me, right because the only reason I
• 1:20:11
  Speaker 6: met them was because I knew Brandon first.
• 1:20:13
  Speaker 1: He met me in the whole. But yeah, so good
• 1:20:17
  Speaker 1: in the in Pittsburgh.
• 1:20:19
  Speaker 4: And oh seven, yeah, yeah, yeah Fred.
• 1:20:28
  Speaker 6: At the time, I was on the sideline because I
• 1:20:30
  Speaker 6: was one hundred and sixty pounds because I just lost
• 1:20:32
  Speaker 6: two plus organs.
• 1:20:33
  Speaker 7: I didn't play that game whenever to.
• 1:20:35
  Speaker 6: So that's the first part, right, Like the the the
• 1:20:38
  Speaker 6: Pittsburgh Steelers Fred remembers didn't have Troy Polamalu and Ryan Class.
• 1:20:43
  Speaker 1: It was a hard conversation.
• 1:20:44
  Speaker 2: It was different if you were talking your Yeah.
• 1:20:49
  Speaker 6: So I used to get back to that and so
• 1:20:51
  Speaker 6: like the the bigger thing is and I told them
• 1:20:54
  Speaker 6: when we got together, like I feel everybody can win,
• 1:20:58
  Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying, Like I I I want
• 1:21:00
  Speaker 6: them to continue to succeed, but I also feel like
• 1:21:03
  Speaker 6: we can succeed. I think I think Channing is an
• 1:21:08
  Speaker 6: absolute superstar. And I've said this on any opportunity I've
• 1:21:12
  Speaker 6: ever had to say it. I think Channing is an
• 1:21:14
  Speaker 6: absolute superstar. I think Fred is one of the smartest
• 1:21:18
  Speaker 6: people I've ever been around, you know, And I understand
• 1:21:21
  Speaker 6: that I understand my job and what we do, and
• 1:21:25
  Speaker 6: so I do it. But I feel like like it
• 1:21:28
  Speaker 6: gets to a point with people that somebody has to lose,
• 1:21:33
  Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying, And.
• 1:21:34
  Speaker 7: That's what pisces me off.
• 1:21:35
  Speaker 2: The piggyback on the things you were saying too. It's
• 1:21:37
  Speaker 2: like we all there's like a part of us too
• 1:21:40
  Speaker 2: that gets into something like this, and we're succeeding in
• 1:21:42
  Speaker 2: another avenue other than football.
• 1:21:44
  Speaker 1: We want to be an example.
• 1:21:45
  Speaker 2: For younger athletes and younger players. And at the same time,
• 1:21:48
  Speaker 2: because I feel too, I'll talk with the boys enough
• 1:21:51
  Speaker 2: and it's that you get caught up comparing whether you're
• 1:21:54
  Speaker 2: comparing the I am athlete a man, are they blowing
• 1:21:56
  Speaker 2: up like this like blah blah blah, this and the other.
• 1:21:58
  Speaker 2: And Ryan is right, like you do want to see
• 1:22:02
  Speaker 2: everyone else to see because the original mission anyway is
• 1:22:05
  Speaker 2: to like build a platform and do something that's athlete driven.
• 1:22:08
  Speaker 1: It's where people aren't corporate over top of us.
• 1:22:11
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 1:22:11
  Speaker 8: So yeah, like you said, the media world like there's
• 1:22:14
  Speaker 8: not that's like if you're for an hour thirty five
• 1:22:16
  Speaker 8: minutes and stead we cut it off right now, there's
• 1:22:18
  Speaker 8: so many more hours in the day. Like people who
• 1:22:20
  Speaker 8: listen to Bus with the Boys don't just listen to
• 1:22:21
  Speaker 8: Bus with the.
• 1:22:22
  Speaker 1: Boys, They listen to so many other things. Right, That's
• 1:22:24
  Speaker 1: why I stuff like that with so much shit.
• 1:22:26
  Speaker 8: That's why this ship is still important to have a
• 1:22:28
  Speaker 8: company like Pivot and a company like Busts want the
• 1:22:30
  Speaker 8: boys to come together because we have two different viewing parties, right,
• 1:22:35
  Speaker 8: and now there's gonna be some crossover there with that.
• 1:22:37
  Speaker 8: Now people are gonna stay here, people are gonna go
• 1:22:39
  Speaker 8: to a Pivot. It's gonna be a.
• 1:22:41
  Speaker 1: When all the boys get back. I think. I think
• 1:22:43
  Speaker 1: it just to make it a regular for men.
• 1:22:45
  Speaker 6: For me, man, you know, I woke up this morning hours,
• 1:22:47
  Speaker 6: I was up early as hell, and I shut up
• 1:22:49
  Speaker 6: the tweet that we was gonna get together, and it
• 1:22:52
  Speaker 6: was important to me. I can be honest. I love
• 1:22:54
  Speaker 6: Will Compton and I always will. We are very similar
• 1:22:59
  Speaker 6: in our trajectory of careers, you know what I'm saying.
• 1:23:03
  Speaker 6: And like when you have a man in your house
• 1:23:05
  Speaker 6: and he eats all your orange chicken, like you just
• 1:23:07
  Speaker 6: never forget that, you know, And like the other thing
• 1:23:10
  Speaker 6: is tudo, like even with Taylor, like I just admire
• 1:23:14
  Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying, Like I admire who you are,
• 1:23:16
  Speaker 6: you know, and these two dudes here and like these
• 1:23:19
  Speaker 6: two dudes here are becoming two of my closest friends,
• 1:23:22
  Speaker 6: you know, like extremely fast. But I think that like
• 1:23:26
  Speaker 6: it's getting to a point like with social media and all,
• 1:23:29
  Speaker 6: like everything has to be ever serial.
• 1:23:31
  Speaker 7: But it doesn't.
• 1:23:33
  Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying, You don't, Like I like
• 1:23:35
  Speaker 6: to like to to just sit and live together. Is
• 1:23:40
  Speaker 6: now It's now not okay, Like I want to live together,
• 1:23:43
  Speaker 6: like I want to grow together, man, and I want
• 1:23:45
  Speaker 6: to be dope together, you know, Like we have all
• 1:23:48
  Speaker 6: these platforms man, that we never had before, you know
• 1:23:52
  Speaker 6: what I'm saying, Like the like I had to get
• 1:23:55
  Speaker 6: like I had to sign an ESPN contract while I
• 1:23:57
  Speaker 6: was playing and be like this dude in Pittsburgh who
• 1:24:00
  Speaker 6: people was like, oh he he's more worried about his
• 1:24:02
  Speaker 6: after career, you know, than he is about like playing
• 1:24:06
  Speaker 6: and be seen differently.
• 1:24:08
  Speaker 7: But we ain't got to do that no more.
• 1:24:09
  Speaker 6: Like Tailor Luan is one of the best left tackles
• 1:24:12
  Speaker 6: in the game.
• 1:24:13
  Speaker 1: Question, but he has this in podcasts and.
• 1:24:16
