• 0:04
  Speaker 1: a blood, but then I realized this is the Calgary. Yeah,
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: I was with the Calgary Calgary soccer team. Okay. But, yeah,
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: I got a chance to meet the guys, talk to them.
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: You know, they're doing really well right now. They're actually
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: leading in their division right now. So they had a game.
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: um over the weekend i think i had a game
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: on sunday so i spoke to him on saturday nice
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: but yeah it was uh it was a good time
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: the weather is pretty chilly around there right now you
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: didn't just wear that you had a jacket on no
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: no yeah no they they made this for me uh
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: but yeah i got my name on the back everything
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: but yeah man i that was my first time uh
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: in calgary um i was up there for the masters
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: which is horse show jumping uh equestrian right man those
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: those horses bro beautiful those are real athletes strength i
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: mean you look at them up close bro you's like
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: man they're like 1200 pounds you're like they could kill
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: me what yeah my coach when he when i played
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: i really understood what he was saying it really came
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: full circle because being around those horses these are racehorse
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: like million dollar horses and the riders they're considered the
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: athletes you know they the They're phenomenal at getting these
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: horses to jump over these jumps. But my coach, when
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: I played before every game, and then even after games,
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: he would recap. He's like, man, he's like, T, he said,
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: you're my horse. He's like, I'll ride with you any day.
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: That came full circle because I understood what he meant.
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: Because when you're on those horses and there's a lot
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: of demand for those horses, those jockeys, those riders when
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: they're on there, bro, it's nothing but pure strength, power,
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: Watching the stride and gallops, because I used to run
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: like a horse. You know what I mean? He's like, yeah,
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: you're my work horse. He's like, I'll ride with you
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: any day of the week. If you've never been to
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: Spruce Meadows, go to the Masters. Show horse jumping. It
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: is phenomenal. All right, well, y'all, you are watching Get
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: to the Point with Chris and T.O.
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: And as you can see, my co-host is worldwide.
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: With his spirit.
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: This is a football show sometimes, right? So let's talk
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: about Patriots. Got their ass handed to them by the Seahawks.
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: I don't know if it was handed to them. Okay,
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: they lost by three.
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah. Say handed to them, that's a stretch. Let's
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: talk about Drake May. He was 23 for 33, 178 yards.
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: He had a touchdown and three interceptions, which all came
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter. which you don't want to have. No,
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: you don't. And again, obviously, these two played in the
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: Super Bowl last year. Drake May, injured last year, really
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: didn't get to play like he wanted to. But if
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: you think about him being the quarterback, and obviously he's
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: the new face of the New England Patriots. Sure. I mean,
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: he has some big shoes to fill. Huge. Tom Brady
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: being there, multiple championships. There's a lot of pressure there
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: in itself. But, again, coming off an injury last year,
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: coming into this season, you're trying to get your footing,
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: your timing. And the word timing is going to come
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: up a number of times in this segment, and I'm
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: going to tell you why. Obviously, with Drake May, obviously
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: you don't want to have interceptions. You can have interceptions,
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: but not three in the most inopportune time of the game.
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: Well, three at any time is bad, but just to
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: have it happen right as you're trying to.
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: To win. Right, in the fourth quarter? Yeah, yeah, you
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: don't want to have that because obviously you're eliminating your
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: chances of obviously winning and scoring points. Is Drake May
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: the guy or is he not the guy? Well, I mean, honestly,
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: this is the first game of the season. And again,
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: like I said, I've already kind of... I know people
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: are quick to judge. He's now the new Tom Brady.
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: He's now the new Tom Brady. He's the face of
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: the franchise. Playing preseason games, you're not going to get
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: You're not going to get full go with all the guys.
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: So the timing is going to be off everything. And again,
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: like I said, going into the fourth quarter and you're
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: trying to win a game and you're behind, you've got
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: to think everything is sped up. He hasn't gotten his footing.
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: He hasn't gotten his timing down. Is he the face
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: of the franchise? Absolutely. To see what he did last
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: year to get them to the Super Bowl, I mean,
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: is remarkable in his first year or first or second year.
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: So I will definitely say that he is the guy.
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: I think it's too early to tell. Give me a
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: few games. Let's get him to like week eight and
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: see how he unfolds. But I think this is, like
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: I said, these things right here can be corrected. Okay. Bears-Panthers, 59-37.
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: That's like a basketball score. Man, this was a good game.
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: I mean, 31-31 at halftime. Yeah. And then the final score,
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: what was the final score? 59 to 37. So that
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: means the Panthers only scored, what, six points in the
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: second half? Exactly. So what does that say? Especially at halftime,
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: you got to think about, like, who played good, who
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: didn't play well. Well, let's talk about that now. Chicago,
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: they generate over 552 yards. Double. Caleb had 334 and
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: four touchdowns. The only thing that he didn't do in
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: this game was chip his nails. You know what I mean?
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: He said it this time. This is the Caleb Williams
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: that I think everybody was anticipating coming from USC. They
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: know what he can do with his feet. But now
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: to do it and see it in early going of
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: the season, aired out 334 yards. I mean, four touchdowns,
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: no interceptions. This is the Bears that I think that
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: they were hoping for. To be quite honest, this is
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: Caleb really picking up from last year because last year,
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: They played the Rams in the playoff. Honestly, they probably
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: should have beat them. Going into the– at the end
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: of that game, they actually– Caleb made a hell of
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: a play. Running backwards. It looked like he closed his
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: eyes and threw it. What? I mean, I actually saw
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: the end of this game. Threw it. Threw a touchdown.
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: Right in that corner. Bow. Overtime. They should have won
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: the game. DJ Moore, I remember this drive. DJ Moore
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: had an over route. Caleb anticipated DJ Moore going to
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: the sideline. That's exactly what he's supposed to do. He
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: threw the ball where it's supposed to be. DJ Moore
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: goes behind the safety. You don't go behind the safety.
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: I saw that. Interception, Rams, they go down, kick the ball,
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: kick a field goal, they lose. The Rams win 20-17.
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: And obviously, like I said, this was, I mean, the
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: way that the Chicago Bears were playing toward the end
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: of the season, how hot I think Caleb was starting
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: to play, this is really... what we are looking and
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: expecting them to play from Caleb Williams.
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: Now, was this a breakout performance, or is this a
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: warning to the rest of the NFC?
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: No, this is definitely a warning. This is definitely like,
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: get ready. But, yeah, if he can piggyback on this,
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: build on this game right here, which I think they
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: will coming into this week's game, they're going to be great. Now,
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: that 59 points is great. Yeah. Okay, but they let up,
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: they gave up 37 points. That means the offense is great.
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: That means the defense. No, no. First of all, you
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: got to listen to what you said. It was 31
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: to 31 at halftime. Right. They only allowed six points.
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: So there were some adjustments made. Definitely some halftime adjustments.
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: But to hold a team to six points an entire half,
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: that bodes well for the Chicago Bears. Okay.
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: All right, one of your old teams, the Bills and
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: the Texans. Bills won 36-31. I think you picked this.
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah, no doubt. Bills over the Texans. Josh Allen, obviously,
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: you know, disappointing few years, especially with, you know, I
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: think last year if they had a window opening for
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: them to win the Super Bowl was last year with
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: the Chiefs not being in it. Nor here nor there.
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: This is a new year. You obviously want to start
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: the season off on the right foot. And then obviously,
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: as the saying goes, it's not how you start, it's
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: how you finish. But obviously, I think out of these
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: two quarterbacks, C.J. Stroud, Josh Allen, a lot is riding
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: on the season for the Buffalo Bills. Because again, Josh
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: Allen has had a lot of disappointing seasons being on
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: the cusp of winning the Super Bowl. Well, that last
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: fourth quarter was great. He marched down the field 96 yards.
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: 96 yards. That's fantastic. I mean, that shows you the experience.
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: It shows you the type of player he is, the
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: caliber of player he is, that they go 96 yards
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: to go in and put their team ahead. And then, again,
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: you look at C.J. Stroud. I mean, he may be
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: on the hot seat this year. I mean, he's looked
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: to be the quarterback of the future for the Houston Texans,
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: or is he? Hasn't played particularly well the last couple
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: of seasons, especially in the playoffs. This is kind of
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: like a, I don't know, maybe a make or break
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: season for them. But again, this is the first game
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: out the gate. Like I said, I didn't foresee them winning,
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: which is obviously, you know, my pick host to be true,
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills. Let's go, Bills Mafia. My daughter's favorite team,
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: the Baltimore Ravens. All you got to say is your
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: daughter's favorite team. I got to say it every time. Yeah,
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: Baltimore Ravens. What's your daughter's name? Bella. Bella. Bella. What's up, Bella?
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: We're about to talk about your dad's, you and your
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: dad's favorite team. I'm going to say both of y'all. Yes,
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: I guess so. 41-23. Lamar. He's so dope. Cold-blooded. Who
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: does he remind you of? Michael Vick. Absolutely. Everybody says it.
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: With his ability to obviously extend plays, obviously he wants,
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: and I think a lot of people want him to
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: stay in the pocket, throw the ball down the field.
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: He's done that. He's improved that. he's shown that now
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: he has to really put all those things together to
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: know when to run when not to run and when
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: to put that ball out there and when he doesn't
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: need to make any plays all you gotta do is
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: hand it off hand it off to my guy Derrick Henry.
• 10:33
  Speaker 3: Whoo he's unstoppable huh what bro this dude is how
• 10:39
  Speaker 3: big is he bro he's me and you combined me
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: and you combined.
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: Really yeah he's the real deal I mean, this guy,
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: 24 carries, 144 yards, three touchdowns. Bro, that's, I mean,
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: to start the season off like that, I mean, Baltimore,
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: I mean, hey, trust me. Are they legitimate contenders? What?
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: I mean, to play like that and really Lamar not
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: really have to do anything and showcase what we know
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: he can do, now they just have to continue with
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: this run. Like, keep on this, and obviously health plays
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: a big part in this, but if you can create
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: some holes, Have a balanced running. Create some what? Create
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: some holes. Holes. If you can create some holes, not
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: some hoes. Don't create no hoes, but create some holes. Holes.
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: There's some holes in this house. Create some holes for
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: that big boy to go through. Right. Once he gets
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: in the secondary, we already know what he can do
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: with his physicality. That stiff arm is like no other.
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: I mean, he putting people's face in the dirt. And then, again,
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: to 144 yards to start the season, three tugs. Ooh.
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: That's pretty good. That's nasty. T.O., is MVP Lamar Jackson back?
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: I think it's a little too early to tell. I
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: know MVP Derrick Henry, he's making a case for MVP
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: right out the gate. I mean, Lamar already has that
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: MVP trophy. I think if he could trade in a
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: Super Bowl ring for MVP. I'm not even asking, is he–
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: going to make MVP again, is he back 100%? Can
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: this dude take this team to the Super Bowl? It
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: is too early to tell. Are they starting out on
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: the right foot? Is this the right way to start
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: the season? With a banging win, especially with a running back.
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: And Derrick Henry, man, taking off with three touchdowns and
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: over 100 yards. Um, this is a good sign for
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: the Ravens as a whole. I think as the season unfold,
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: we will see to your question. Is this the MVP
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson, uh, that we're wanting to see. All right.
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: Another one of your old teams, 49ers Rams, 27, seven
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: in Australia.
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I picked the 49ers to win. Yes, you did. Yeah.
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: I think I picked the 49ers to win this. Um,
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: obviously there was a lot of talk, um, too much
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: talk about the travel. Was it advantageous to get there
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: ahead of time versus traveling a day or two and
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: then getting there and then just hitting the ground running?
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: I think it's obvious. I think they were tired because
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: they had to run from the airport to the game. Right. Clearly,
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: this is something that I am sure McVay will rethink
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: if they have to travel internationally again. But again, I
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: think when you look at the San Francisco 49ers going
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: into this season with all the off-season issues that they've had,
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: you know, even stemming back to last year from all
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: the injuries, you know, everybody's, you know, been up in
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: arms about the injuries and all the electricity and things
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: going on. And then obviously some of the off-the-field issues.
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: You got Dajon Love trying to play for the 49ers. And,
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: you know, obviously that owner with his off-the-field issues and
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: Kyle Shanahan, you know, accident, you know, people sweeping that
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: on the road for about a week. Right. This is
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: what the 49ers needed was a W. I think that
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: would have compounded everything that has been going on this
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: offseason if they would have started this season out with
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: an L. You got Christian McCaffrey playing well. Obviously, Brock Purdy.
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: You look at how he distributed the ball. I mean,
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: Debo Samuel getting back to the team and getting back
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: into the playmaking ways, getting back into the end zone. man,
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: the 49er faithful, they were loving this win.
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: Is this a warning to other coaches and GMs that
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: you need to, if you're going to do some international travel,
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: you need to get there a couple days early?
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that's in general. I think it's, I
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: wonder if anybody else has ever done that, shown up
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: the day before. I think a couple, I mean. And
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: they were trying to say that they were on the
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: same time zone. It's like, no, we ain't. No, because
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: I think you go. They're like 26 hours ahead. Yeah,
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: you're ahead. Yeah, you're ahead. You know what I mean?
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: I mean, just imagine. It's tomorrow in Australia right now. Yeah, right.
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: Just think if you had a birthday here, then you're ahead. Well,
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: let me tell you a story.
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: A good friend of ours, Jamie Foxx, asked me, what
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: are you doing for New Year's? I looked at my wife.
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: We said nothing. Flew us to Australia. We said, happy
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: New Year's in Australia. Then got on a plane, came
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: back to Vegas and said, happy New Year's. And it
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: was both New Year's.
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: So you had two New Year's. Two New Year's. Thanks,
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: Jamie Foxx. All right, I didn't mean to name drop,
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: but that's the kind of people me and T.O.B. know. Yeah,
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: you know, that's what we do. One of the bigger
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: stories is Miles Garrett is hurt. Right here in Los Angeles. Yes, no,
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: it was in Australia because he was running from the
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: airport to the damn stadium because they just landed four
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: hours before the game. That's not exactly what happened, but...
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: He's hurt. He's going to be out for four games. What?
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: Arthroscopic knee surgery. Yo, that's crazy. I mean, obviously we
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: have the information, but I didn't know that he was hurt. Hurt. Yeah,
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: I didn't know he had gotten hurt. So, again, if
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: he's going to be out, arthroscopic surgery, that's at least
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: four weeks. Barring nothing goes wrong, does this put a
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: little pressure on Aaron Donald to play this week and
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: to get back into the fold? Because, again, Aaron Donald–
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: obviously unretiring, coming back, and then you signing a big
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: free agent in Miles Garrett. Right. And that's definitely probably
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: a major reason that Aaron came back. No, no, for sure.
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: I mean, you have now two defensive players of the
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: year on your squad on the same side of the ball.
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: I mean, they obviously invested in and gave away some
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: picks to get Miles Garrett. And then obviously they're looking
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: for him to be really that this D star on
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: the defensive side of the ball. And now he's gone
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: for four weeks. Who are you going to now hang
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: your hat on? Yeah, we, we, we don't know defensively.
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: Aaron is going to be a big piece when both
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: of those guys are together. Now, collectively the defensive coordinator,
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: he now he's going to have to go to the
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: lab because now he defensively schematically, he's going to have
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: to make up for that loss of miles Garrett. And
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: then obviously, I don't know if, Aaron Donald's going to
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: play this week. I think he will. Now you have
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: to insert him. But then is that going to put
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: a lot of pressure on Aaron Donald to make plays? Oh, absolutely, yeah.
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: Talking to a person who played with an injury, when
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: Myles Garrett comes back, is he going to be 100%?
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: And if he's not 100%, is he going to say
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: he's 100% so he can play?
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: No, I think he'll be 100%. I think this is
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: a minor. This is a minor surgery. Obviously, it's invasive.
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: But obviously, with the way he plays the game, like
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: I said, I don't know which knee it is or
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: what have you. I don't know if it's going to affect. Obviously,
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: he needs his legs, his takeoff, his power. All those
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: things are going to be predicated on knees, which he
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: needs to get back to the quarterback. So, yeah, a
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: guy that's played with injury, yeah, beginning of the season,
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: you start out at 100%. You know what I mean?
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: And even... You know, guys that start the season off,
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: you're really not 100%. You still have some nagging. That's
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: what I wanted to know. Yeah, you still have some
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: nagging injuries even from the year or two prior. You
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: just try to do whatever you can to preserve and
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: be as healthy as you can going into the season,
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: especially you don't want to. I mean, if you're going
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: to have an injury, this is the best time to
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: have it. You'd rather have it at the beginning of
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: the year. You don't want to be injured at all,
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: but you'd rather be hurt at the beginning of the
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: year versus the last four weeks of the season. You
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: get what I'm saying? Mm-hmm. knowing that you got the
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: playoffs coming in, coming upon you, and then this is
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: where you need your star player. Giants, Cowboys, another one
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: of your teams. You've been on a lot of teams.
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: Four teams, and we've named all four. Five, five, five.
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: I've been on five. Oh, yeah, Cincinnati. We're coming in
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: on next. Okay. Giants, Cowboys, 28-20. I mean, we're going
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: to show you this. Did you pick the Giants? The
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: topic here, one of the questions in bold letters is
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: same old Dallas defense. Jesus Christ. That's the question. I'm
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: going to give you one better. This is the same
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: old Dallas team. Same old Dallas team. Graded offense, lacking
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: in defense. They lacking in a little bit of everything.
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: But I picked the Giants to win this. And like
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: I said, I'm 100%, you know, according to my picks.
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: You know what the problem was? Is that they never
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: stopped them. It was always first down for the Giants. Yeah,
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: so that's a big, like you said, that's a big
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: question mark about the defense. You've got to stop them.
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: That's your Achilles heel. If you can't stop anybody, then
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: how are you going to allow your team offense to
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: get on the field to score, especially with those weapons
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: that they have in Pickens and CeeDee Lamb?
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: No, I saw some of the dudes in the third
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: quarter putting on regular clothes from the offense.
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: They're like, we ain't never getting on the field. No,
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: not playing like that. That's for sure. But again, like
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: I said, the Cowboys, I mean, it's the same old thing.
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: Is it this year? Is this year their year? Jerry
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: Jones is really selling all these Cowboy fans. He's selling
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: them a fantasy. He's selling them a dream. Jerry, I
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: cannot deny, he is a great salesman. He can sell
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: some ice cream to an Eskimo, that is for sure.
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: He can sell anything, any refrigerator products to anybody over there.
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: At what point do you stop trying to bring in
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: new people and just like settle with this team and
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: make them great?
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: I think he just needs to relinquish some of his...
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: He ain't never doing that. No, he needs to relinquish
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: some of the control that he has with the team
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: and allow some other people to kind of step in
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: place Never going to happen. I saw the documentary. But
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: that's kind of like a sign of narcissism, in a sense.
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: I mean, you've got to be able to allow. But again,
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: at the end of the day, he's not even really
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: worried about wins and losses. I'm just telling you. Fans
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: out there, it's not about wins and losses for him.
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: It's about the bottom line, and that's the bottom dollar.
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: As long as you guys keep buying that Dallas Cowboy merch,
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: he's raking in dollars. long as he's doing that, he's
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: putting a decent product on the field and giving you
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: guys hope that every year is the year, you guys
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: keep buying it. He's just like Donald Trump. He'll just
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: say anything and a lot of people are eating it
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: up and think it's going to be true. What do
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: you think about Dak? Stop it. What do you think
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: about Dak? Would he do well? Would he do better
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: on a different team? I think so. Again, when you
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: play with the Dallas Cowboys, there's so many expectations. Obviously,
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: historic franchise um obviously every year i mean i don't
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: know when the last team when the last time they
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: won a super bowl i mean even the years that
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: i played that they went they were like okay this
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: is the year this is a year a lot of
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: things happen with that but uh yeah dac is playing
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: i mean he's playing well i mean again time of
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: possession is the the the key the key to the
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: the giants winning the ball i mean when you don't
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: have a lot of opportunities offensively it's hard to win
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: ball games cleveland browns Versus the Jags. I know the
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: big story. Yeah, I didn't play for any of these.
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: Is this quarterback situation? You didn't play for any of
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: these teams. I didn't play for any of these teams. No, okay, good.
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: The Browns committed 11 penalties. Yeah, for me, that's a
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: sign of being undisciplined. Right. That's whether you, mental assignments
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: or control of your emotions have to be disciplined, especially
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: going into the season. And especially with the Browns, I mean,
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: These are things that have been your Achilles heels over
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: the years. In order to be a better organization, be
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: a better football team, these are things that need to
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: be corrected. And that's, I mean, that's on the head
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: coach because it starts with him. And they turned the
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: ball over twice. And turnovers, obviously, I mean, that's not bad.
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: Turning the ball twice, it depends on when those turnovers
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: were made. I believe they were interceptions. Right, but you
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: can overcome, you know, turnovers. You can overcome those. Turnovers...
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: And penalties, that's a lot to overcome. Obviously, I'm sure
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: the big story is, and I already, my pick was
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: the Jaguars anyway. I didn't think that the Browns were
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: going to win this game by any stretch of the imagination.
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: Because of the Deshaun Watson situation? Just overall, knowing who
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: they were playing, too. You got Trevor Lawrence. They reached
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: the playoffs last year. They hit a little snag. And
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: you got Travis Hunter, phenomenal college football player, coming in.
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: Playing his first year, he got injured, I think, midway
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: of the season last year. But he's going to be better.
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: I think that overall make of the team is going
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: to be better. But playing against the Browns, I mean,
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: this was, again, this is a good feel-good game for
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: the Jaguars. I think the topic in the discussion is
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson. Yes. My thing is I'm not going to
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: put all the heat on Deshaun Watson. I'm not saying, oh,
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: let's put Shador Sanders in right away. I want Shador
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: Sanders to play just like all the fans want him
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: to play. But they have to understand there's a lot
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: of money at stake, a lot of money invested in
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson. And they want to see exactly what can
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: he do now that he's healthy. Deshaun Watson hasn't played
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: in like two years. Just as I said earlier with
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: Drake May, with being comfortable, timing, pre-snap read, all those things,
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: pre-season snaps, pre-season games, In practice, in preseason, you're not
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: playing with guys that are going full out. Now you're
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: asking a quarterback that hasn't played in two years, hasn't
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: really played a full game, because you've got to think.
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: Shador played some of the preseason snaps too. He didn't
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: play a full four quarters. The timing is off. All
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: those things come into play. The guy can play. There's
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: documentation that the dude can play. Let him get his
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: timing back. Let him get his footing. Let him see
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: enough football that he hasn't seen in two years, and
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: I think maybe we're going to see the Deshaun Watson
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: that we want to see. But you have to be
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: patient with the guy at this point because management is
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: not going to push your door in right now. That's
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: just not going to happen. When will that happen? I
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: don't know. I don't know what leash, and I don't
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: know if they have a game number in mind to
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: give Deshaun Watson, for it to play out to see
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: when they need to yank him and then put Shador in.
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: But obviously, we know Shador can play. Yes. I know
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: Shador can play. I'm wanting him just like everybody else,
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: but it's just not going to happen right now. Right now,
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: he hasn't gotten his timing back. He hasn't played in
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: two years. That's just like me. Honestly, if I came back,
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: I would be a little rusty and be like, oh,
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: I told you he couldn't play. Give me some time
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: to play. Give me some time to show you real
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: live bullets, give me some, get me comfortable, get him
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: some plays, just like I'm talking, get him comfortable, get
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: him some plays to get the ball out of his hands.
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: And I saw one of the highlights of one of
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: his interceptions. He threw over the middle. Not his fault. No,
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: it was his fault, but that's a lot of timing.
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: So let me ask you something. The linebacker dropped where
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: he was throwing, but again, that comes with timing and
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: seeing it in real time. Wouldn't more preseason snaps help that? Yes, absolutely.
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: But again... They're having to, again, you got to think about,
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: you got to prepare Shador just in case they do
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: put him in a situation if they take, if they
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: yank him out of there. This is my favorite thing.
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: You know me, I love popcorn. Where is your, you
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: didn't bring that this week? No, the players brought it.
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: They brought it. All right, talk to me. Get your
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: popcorn ready. This is T.O. 's Popcorn Power Five, and
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: it's not about the wins and losses in this segment.
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: This is about how they balled out. Best performances. This
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: is about who produces. Okay. Who basically showed out, who
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: popped off. Who's number five for you? Number five, we're
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: going to go from... Bottom to the top. Okay. Number five.
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: My number five is Jameer Gibbs of the Detroit Lions.
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: Talk to me. He popped off a little bit. 29 carries,
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: 156 yards, two touchdowns, 5.4 yards per carry. Man. What
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: do you think about them Lions? They all right. I mean,
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: they all right. They've been knocking at the door. But, hey,
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: like I said, it's not about the wins and losses.
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: It's about who popped off. So, hey, Jameer, he's at
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: number five. Okay. Number four. This is Bella's favorite team
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: and player. I don't know why he's number four, baby.
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson. This was pretty pedestrian for him because... We're
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: going to get to who really popped off. Yeah, we're
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: going to save that. 17 to 25, 324 yards, 40
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: rushing yards. When you have 40, this is good. We
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: don't want him running around. We got to save him.
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: But we like it. Yeah, we got to keep him upright. Right, right.
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: It's game one. Two touchdowns and no interceptions. Right. That's good. Okay.
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: That's good. I will say that's semi-MVP level performance. It's okay.
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: Number three. Close number three. You know he's coming out
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: his backfield. Lamar's backfield. Who is it? D. Henry. Derrick Henry. Boy,
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: this dude popped off. 24 carries, 144 yards, and three
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: touchdowns to start the season. Now, hey, this is MVP
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: form right here. Six yards a carry. Holler at your boy. Now,
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: who does he remind you of? Shoot, this dude, he's
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: like Bo Jackson and a little Emmitt Smith. Okay. Shoot,
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: and a little Eric D. A little Eric Dickerson. Well,
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: he don't run so upright like E.D. Yeah, he does.
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: He ain't got no curls. Yeah, he runs a little
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: upright and he'll put your face in the dirt. Okay. Yeah,
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: number three. Coming in at number two. Another one of
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: my guys, Bills Mafia. I know y'all love me out there.
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: In the 7-1-6, Josh Allen coming in, 334 passing yards,
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: four touchdowns, and no interceptions. Hey, this is definitely MVP performance, too. Now,
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: why wasn't he your number one? Just hold on. You
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: popping off too fast. I'm just asking. Bill's nation. Bill's mafia.
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: I get it. He's close. He's at number two. Then
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: who is number one? He's at number two. Shout out.
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: Josh Allen. Number one. Ha, this is probably going to
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: surprise a lot of people. Number one out of Chicago, woo,
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: Windy City, Caleb Williams. Soon to be Indiana. Man, 269
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: passing yards, 65 rushing yards, four touchdowns, zero interceptions, and
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: zero touchdowns. chipped fingernails. All right, I get it. I
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: was just trying to hate on him because he's a Trojan. Yes,
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: he definitely had the number one performance of the week.
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: And they put up 50-plus points on the Panthers. What?
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: Come on now. And there you have it. Popcorn Power Five.

  Speaker 2: Buffalo uses three tight ends for damn near 40% of
• 30:49
  Speaker 2: their offense.
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah, which I think bodes well, especially when you have
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: a high-powered offense. That way you can really kind of
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: disguise you, the tight end, in passing and run situations.
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: So if you're asking me for my pick, Lions or Bills,
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: B becomes before L, so I'm going to go Bills.
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: B goes before L. Not that that's, you know, that's
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: how women, they find any way. Colors. Colors, any way
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: to figure out, pick a team. But no, I'm going
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: with the Buffalo Bills, and I'm not really being biased,
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: but I'm just basing this on really just offensive efficiency
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: and really how, really, Josh Allen has started this season out.
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: And I think he's motivated. He's more than motivated, especially
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: how last year ended. And I know I'm pretty sure
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: I'm probably going to be redundant in saying this, but
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: their window for winning really was last year. I don't
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: want to say it's closing, but last year with the
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: Chiefs not being in the playoffs, they had the best
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: opportunity to win and really compete and win a Super Bowl.
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: So this year, I'm sure that's been on his mind.
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: When you're an athlete, but when you win and you're
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: close to getting to there, and you end up, that
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: off-season comes a little bit faster than you want to, bro,
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: it eats at you. You don't sleep, sometimes you don't eat,
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: and then you're motivated. So the way that he's come out,
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: the Bills have come out, and I'm sure there's a lot,
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: it's always going to be riding on the quarterback's shoulders.
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: But this year, I think this may be the year
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: for the Buffalo Bills. Okay, we got two other undefeated teams.
• 32:27
  Speaker 2: We got the Vikings. And the Bears, one has an
• 32:30
  Speaker 2: incredible defense and one last week had an incredible offense.
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: Who you got? I'm going with Chicago Bears. It's Vikings.
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: They're on their second quarterback. Kyler Murray got hurt early
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: on in this game. Again, you think about just timing.
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: He was injured at the end of his season with
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: the Arizona Cardinals. Now he's injured again. Again, a lot
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: of this is timing. If you look at how Kyler
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: got hurt, He slid head first. You got to slide
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: feet first to give yourself up. And then he don't
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: take those hits. He got like he was like right
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: in between two defenders. This is what I'm talking about,
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: like where preseason, all these things come into play. When
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: you don't play a lot of preseason, your timing is off,
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: your decision making is off. Even decision making as far
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: as him sliding, not taking that hit. you live to
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: play another play. You know what I mean? Well, maybe
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: he played baseball. Well, he did play baseball. But even
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: with baseball, I mean, depending on where you're sliding in,
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: you slide feet first, too. You know what I mean?
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: I've slid feet first a number of times playing baseball.
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: I play a little baseball. Who needs to win more?
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: Everybody wants to win, but who needs to win more? Right.
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: This is an AFC-NFC game matchup. So, again, they're not
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: in each other's division. I would say... For the sake
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: of just staying on par and staying on trajectory, I
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: think the Bills need this win more. I think this
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: does well for the confidence of, number one, the quarterback,
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: his players, and then obviously they can get a lot
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: more continuity. They can gel, really kind of identify what
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: they're going to go and how and who they're going
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: to be throughout the course of the season. Are they
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: going to be a running team? Are they going to
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: be a passing team? Is this team going to be
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: led by the leadership of Josh Allen, despite the ebbs
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: and flow of the season? Can he be mistake-free when
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: he needs to push the Bills to get to the
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: Super Bowl? Okay.
• 34:35
  Speaker 2: I hate saying the word undefeated because it's only 1-0,
• 34:37
  Speaker 2: but Bengals-Texans.
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: Bengals-Texans. Bengals are 1-0, and the Texans are 0-1. I'm
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: going to go with the Bengals in this one. I'm
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: going to go with Joe Burrow. I think he has
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: a lot to prove. Again, you got a lot of guys,
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: a lot of players that are coming back at the
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: beginning of the season that were injured toward the end
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: of last season that are going to need to really
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: show and improve at the beginning of this season. So
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: a lot is riding on the Bengals. They've had so many,
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: a few years where they've been projected and the potential
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: is there on their team. They've just been under, they just, yeah,
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: they just haven't been Productive. Yeah, productive. Yeah, thank you. Yeah,
• 35:21
  Speaker 1: been very underwhelming is the word I was looking for
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: for their performance, especially with the quarterback, with the capabilities
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: of a guy like Joe Burrow. So your prediction is
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: the Bengals. Bengals. Who needs to win more? Shit, both
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: of them need to win more. I would probably say
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: the Houston Texans. They probably need to win more. Especially
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: when you're 0-1. Yeah, and C.J. Stroud, obviously, trying to
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: kind of, you know, And I think, yeah, he's trying
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: to prove himself. And I think he's looking for a
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: new contract, I think, if I'm not mistaken. He's looking
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: for a new contract. And the only way that that's
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: going to happen, you're not going to be able to
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: play bad and garner or warrant a new contract. He
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: has to go out and prove to the city of
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: Houston that he's deserving of that. Next, we got the
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: Patriots and the Steelers. Steelers are actually 1-0 and the
• 36:13
  Speaker 1: Patriots are 0-1-1. Whoa. This is Aaron Rodgers. Aaron Rodgers, right?
• 36:18
  Speaker 2: Let's not forget, New England allowed three sacks and ended
• 36:21
  Speaker 2: its final three possessions with interceptions.
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: Obviously, my pick is I'm going to pick the Steelers.
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: Who needs to win more? I would probably say the Patriots.
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: But I think if you got the leadership, the veteran
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: play of a guy like Aaron Rodgers, I wouldn't count
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: this guy out. I think he's going to play really
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: well throughout this season. Now he's had a couple of
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: years from the Achilles injury. I think he's going to
• 36:49
  Speaker 1: play better this year. And then also with the reunion
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: of his former head coach from the Green Bay Packers,
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy, who just came over from the Dallas Cowboys.
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: This is obviously a more familiar territory. an atmosphere for
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: obviously our QB. When you have somebody that you've won
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: a Super Bowl with, it's almost like getting back with
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: that old girlfriend. You know what I mean? You know
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: you've been there, done that. You wouldn't know anything about that. No,
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: I've never had an ex-girlfriend. Neither would I, but I'm
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: hoping so at some point. You've had a lot of exes. Yeah,
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: but I just haven't reunited with them. There's been no reunions.
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: No reunions. But I know I have the conceptual idea
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: of what that could be like. Yeah, absolutely. But yeah,
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: when you go back to that, you know, that used to.
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: Dolphins 49ers. 49ers feel good. They have a win. And Dolphins, well,
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: you guys are 0-1. And they're going to be forever
• 37:48
  Speaker 1: 0-1 something. You don't like the Dolphins, huh? It's not
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: that I don't like the Dolphins. I just– I don't
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: even know who's playing this weekend for the Dolphins. Is
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: it Ricky Williams, O.J. McDuffie? Larry Zonka? Yeah, Dan Marino.
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: It's a fresh team. Man, I think they would probably
• 38:08
  Speaker 1: be better off, I mean, just subbing them out and
• 38:11
  Speaker 1: putting a UFL or a CFL team in one of
• 38:15
  Speaker 1: their spots because they– I don't know if they're going
• 38:17
  Speaker 1: to win a game this year. They didn't look good
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: last week. I'm predicting they're going to lose 10-plus games
• 38:24
  Speaker 1: this year. Damn. They're going to lose 10-plus games. So
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: if anybody needs this win, it's the Miami Dolphins, but
• 38:31
  Speaker 1: it's not going to happen this weekend because the 49ers,
• 38:34
  Speaker 1: they are– they are ready to play some ball this year.
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: I think they're more than motivated. They're more than motivated
• 38:41
  Speaker 1: this year with the addition of Debo Samuels. And obviously
• 38:44
  Speaker 1: you've seen how Kyle Shanahan, they've implemented him. They're using him.
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: Obviously health is going to be a big, big key
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: in the whole season, but they can utilize Debo to
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: his strengths. And Debo is not being used strictly as
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: a running back, strictly as a receiver, using him as
• 39:01
  Speaker 1: somewhat of a utility guy, like a versatile guy. Maybe
• 39:05
  Speaker 1: even put him on like, kickoff return, a punt return,
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: using his playmaking ability, like I said, and not full
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: time at one position, that's going to bode well for
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: the 49er offense. So yeah, my pick is the 49ers.

• 40:23
  Speaker 4: Switch some gears.
• 40:24
  Speaker 1: Switch some gears. Because I see your mind is kind
• 40:26
  Speaker 1: of just all over the place. Yeah, because I don't
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: understand why this guy was there.
• 40:29
  Speaker 2: Ted Cruz was recently on college game day.
• 40:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I don't know why. They want you all to
• 40:35
  Speaker 1: shut up and dribble or shut up and score touchdowns.
• 40:37
  Speaker 1: Throw the ball. I don't know. Yeah. So let me
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: explain to you guys what happened.
• 40:40
  Speaker 2: So Senator Ted Cruz appeared on ESPN's college game day
• 40:45
  Speaker 2: in Austin to promote the Protect College Sports Act, which
• 40:50
  Speaker 2: is legislation addressing the NIL, Rev sharing, transfers, and national
• 40:56
  Speaker 2: rules for college athletics. Well, his ass got booed, as
• 41:00
  Speaker 2: he rightfully should have been booed, because they're constantly telling
• 41:04
  Speaker 2: us as, you know, we athletes, but a lot of
• 41:09
  Speaker 2: times entertainers, whether they be actors or musicians, to stay
• 41:13
  Speaker 2: in your lane. Don't get involved in politics. And now
• 41:16
  Speaker 2: politics is trying to get involved in sports. And we're like,
• 41:21
  Speaker 2: what are you doing here? Why are you here?
• 41:24
  Speaker 1: It pains me to hear this because it's almost like
• 41:27
  Speaker 1: they're trying to take away something that has been needed
• 41:33
  Speaker 1: for kids. When these colleges and universities have made millions
• 41:37
  Speaker 1: and billions of dollars off the back of these college athletes,
• 41:42
  Speaker 1: now they're trying to now, I guess, regulate or strip
• 41:45
  Speaker 1: that way in a sense. Do I feel like maybe
• 41:48
  Speaker 1: there should be some sort of regulation? I don't really,
• 41:51
  Speaker 1: maybe so. To have some sort of structure. Right. But
• 41:55
  Speaker 1: it shouldn't be the government to do it. Right. Yeah.
• 41:57
  Speaker 1: I don't think they need to be coming and then
• 42:00
  Speaker 1: trying to intervene. It's just like Trump trying to intervene
• 42:03
  Speaker 1: in the soccer stuff, like soccer match. Or even the
• 42:06
  Speaker 1: Knicks game. Right. Which was bad luck to the Knicks.
• 42:10
  Speaker 1: Stay in your lane. They have people that are knowledgeable. Qualified. Qualified.
• 42:17
  Speaker 1: and know the ins and outs of how college football works.
• 42:22
  Speaker 1: And again, I don't agree totally with a lot of
• 42:26
  Speaker 1: what Nick Saban has done, because they've tried to, I guess,
• 42:30
  Speaker 1: have him as a governing body or voice with NIL,
• 42:34
  Speaker 1: because I think that's probably why he got out of football,
• 42:36
  Speaker 1: because of NIL, because he saw what's happening now. He
• 42:40
  Speaker 1: saw it coming. And I think now you have, I
• 42:43
  Speaker 1: think to his credit, He's allowed a lot of his
• 42:46
  Speaker 1: players that have come through the University of Alabama, have
• 42:49
  Speaker 1: come through T-Town, number one, to get an education. But
• 42:52
  Speaker 1: a lot of those kids obviously have benefited from being
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: in Alabama at Alabama too. Not all of them, but
• 42:58
  Speaker 1: look at some of those superstars that, you know, how
• 43:01
  Speaker 1: many jersey sales that they've had, millions and millions of
• 43:04
  Speaker 1: dollars that they've made with just their number, not their name.
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: And those kids haven't benefited at all. Now it's a
• 43:10
  Speaker 1: situation where these kids, it's almost like they're saying, You know,
• 43:16
  Speaker 1: what's that, the rabbit? It's no fun when the rabbit
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: has the gun. Now, these players, they have the gun.
• 43:24
  Speaker 1: That's what's going on right now. And now they're trying
• 43:28
  Speaker 1: to get the gun from the rabbit. And I don't
• 43:30
  Speaker 1: think the way they're going about it, it's the right way.
• 43:33
  Speaker 2: Colin Kaepernick is on this book tour. And that whole
• 43:37
  Speaker 2: Jay-Z controversy has kind of been.
• 43:41
  Speaker 1: Brought to light. Right. I don't know if you remember,
• 43:43
  Speaker 1: Jay-Z did a freestyle. Yep. He talked about Target. He
• 43:47
  Speaker 1: talked about, I think he made some references to. Dave
• 43:49
  Speaker 1: Dash's teeth coming out. Yeah. Some people loved it. Some
• 43:54
  Speaker 1: people liked it. Some people thought it was just okay.
• 43:56
  Speaker 1: I think a lot of people didn't like it. Yeah.
• 43:58
  Speaker 1: Did you like it? I think there was a lot
• 44:01
  Speaker 1: of hypocrisy in some of his delivery, saying that, you know,
• 44:05
  Speaker 1: you guys are liking Target, but, you know, the people
• 44:08
  Speaker 1: that fund Target and all these things like Meta, we
• 44:11
  Speaker 1: like Meta and Instagram and all these things. and what
• 44:15
  Speaker 1: is it, Prime, what is it? Somebody's big business. Yeah, Amazon,
• 44:21
  Speaker 1: all these things. I think there was a lot of
• 44:23
  Speaker 1: hypocrisy in his message. In his delivery. Okay. Yes.
• 44:28
  Speaker 2: So him and Jay-Z are at odds right now because,
• 44:33
  Speaker 2: you know, he's fully entrenched in this movement. Like, literally,
• 44:39
  Speaker 2: I think his books are probably mostly at black-owned bookstores, right?
• 44:44
  Speaker 1: Yes, it is. This is Kaepernick's book. Oh, yeah, he
• 44:48
  Speaker 1: didn't put his book in Target. No, he did not.
• 44:51
  Speaker 1: That was not one of the Targets. And so Jay-Z,
• 44:55
  Speaker 1: I think he thinks Jay-Z.
• 44:59
  Speaker 2: Has kind of convoluted the message, right?
• 45:02
  Speaker 1: And compromised, maybe compromised some of what he's trying to accomplish. Yeah,
• 45:06
  Speaker 1: by taking this big gig with the NFL, right? But
• 45:09
  Speaker 1: Jay-Z said earlier, dude, you already took a check. And...
• 45:15
  Speaker 1: you signed an NDA, right? But Colin is saying, I
• 45:19
  Speaker 1: ain't signed an NDA. But what's the purpose of an NDA?
• 45:21
  Speaker 1: I'm sure you signed an NDA saying, make sure you
• 45:24
  Speaker 1: tell people you ain't signed no NDA. So basically like
• 45:28
  Speaker 1: who's telling the truth? Right. Who's telling the truth and
• 45:31
  Speaker 1: who's lying? At this point, I mean, if I had to,
• 45:35
  Speaker 1: if there's a meter here. Pick your favorite black. Right.
• 45:37
  Speaker 1: If there's a meter here, like I said, and I
• 45:40
  Speaker 1: hate this black on black thing. Right. But if I
• 45:42
  Speaker 1: had to pick a meter here to see where it's swinging,
• 45:45
  Speaker 1: For the good, I'm going to go with Colin. Really? Well,
• 45:48
  Speaker 1: I'm going to go with Jay. I don't know why
• 45:50
  Speaker 1: you would want to go with Jay. Because he gave
• 45:51
  Speaker 1: me tickets to the show on the 23rd. That is
• 45:53
  Speaker 1: definitely not a reason to go with Jay. I'm going
• 45:55
  Speaker 1: to go with Colin because C becomes a 4J, if
• 45:58
  Speaker 1: that's the case. We don't like going against our people.
• 46:02
  Speaker 1: But basically what you can see right here. Yeah, exactly.
• 46:05
  Speaker 1: But honestly, if I had to... We understand both sides. Yeah,
• 46:10
  Speaker 1: understand both sides. And there's probably some stuff that we
• 46:12
  Speaker 1: don't know. Don't know. I think we all have... There's
• 46:15
  Speaker 1: a lot that we probably don't know. But I think
• 46:17
  Speaker 1: from looking at the big picture, it doesn't look good,
• 46:24
  Speaker 1: especially when we're trying to advance in so many areas
• 46:28
  Speaker 1: as a black community, and then we have two powerhouses
• 46:31
  Speaker 1: of individuals combating, going head-to-head against each other. So speaking
• 46:36
  Speaker 1: of the black community, Fat Joe... What's that ninja talking about?
• 46:40
  Speaker 1: He doesn't even use the word ninja. He uses the
• 46:42
  Speaker 1: real word. Am I allowed to say neighbor? Right. What
• 46:46
  Speaker 1: do you think about him using the N word? Because,
• 46:50
  Speaker 1: I mean, that's the phrase, using the N word. It
• 46:54
  Speaker 1: is tricky. Okay. Tricky. And what's so tricky about it is,
• 47:00
  Speaker 1: He's closer to the other color than us. But it's
• 47:03
  Speaker 1: not color. I know. I get it. I know that.
• 47:06
  Speaker 1: But some people that looks like they're going to say, oh,
• 47:08
  Speaker 1: you shouldn't say that word because you're not us. You're
• 47:13
  Speaker 1: not our color. But obviously, there's genetics. There's DNA. Sure. Culture.
• 47:21
  Speaker 1: I think he said two different things, and that's why
• 47:22
  Speaker 1: people are being a little confused. Before he said, I
• 47:25
  Speaker 1: am a part of black culture. Right. I grew up
• 47:28
  Speaker 1: in the projects in the Bronx. But there are white
• 47:31
  Speaker 1: people that grew up in the culture. No, that's what
• 47:33
  Speaker 1: I'm saying. That's where people were saying, eh. And then
• 47:36
  Speaker 1: he came back and said, my father is an Afro-Latino. Okay.
• 47:41
  Speaker 1: And so. So what does that quite mean? That means
• 47:44
  Speaker 1: he has permission to use the word because he is
• 47:47
  Speaker 1: of black culture. He has black in him. Yes, that's
• 47:50
  Speaker 1: African and Latino. So if it's in him, if he's
• 47:53
  Speaker 1: a black person, then I think that gives him license
• 47:56
  Speaker 1: to say the word. But I think they're saying, we
• 47:59
  Speaker 1: never heard you say that before. I think before you
• 48:01
  Speaker 1: were just saying, you know, I'm the biggest, baddest you
• 48:05
  Speaker 1: ever met. And because I grew up in this, and
• 48:08
  Speaker 1: then now recently he's telling us, oh, by the way,
• 48:11
  Speaker 1: my father is Afro-Latino. And so he is also saying
• 48:14
  Speaker 1: since I grew up in hip-hop, I am hip-hop, I
• 48:18
  Speaker 1: should have a license to say it. No, no, no. No,
• 48:21
  Speaker 1: I don't think that gives you the liberty or the
• 48:24
  Speaker 1: license to say it just because you grew up in
• 48:26
  Speaker 1: the space. Because Eminem grew up in hip-hop. Right, in
• 48:28
  Speaker 1: the space. He better not say it. Yeah, he's not
• 48:30
  Speaker 1: saying it. Vanilla Ice, well, I don't know if he
• 48:32
  Speaker 1: grew up in hip-hop, but you know what I'm saying. Right, again, it's...
• 48:35
  Speaker 1: You can't just adopt. But when you grew up in
• 48:37
  Speaker 1: New York, New York is it. Brooklyn, Bronx, Dominicans, Puerto Ricans, Jamaicans,
• 48:44
  Speaker 1: and niggas all call each other nigga. Right. And so
• 48:49
  Speaker 1: I understand where he's coming from. He's not using a
• 48:52
  Speaker 1: hard ER. Right. He's saying it the way we said it.
• 48:56
  Speaker 1: And I think that's the way he said it coming up. Right.
• 48:58
  Speaker 1: It's a difference in N-I-G-G-A and N-I-G-G-E-R. Listen, the word
• 49:03
  Speaker 1: is horrible. Nobody should be saying it. Right. But again,
• 49:06
  Speaker 1: I grew up in a in a culture, in a
• 49:09
  Speaker 1: neighborhood where we say it, I mean, we don't use
• 49:12
  Speaker 1: it often, but just, you playing basketball, you playing football,
• 49:16
  Speaker 1: just doing whatever, you're going to say that word.
• 49:18
  Speaker 2: And I think that's what Fat Joe's saying. That's how
• 49:20
  Speaker 2: he grew up. This isn't something new to him.
• 49:23
  Speaker 1: But this is also, you have to, him being who
• 49:27
  Speaker 1: he is. I like how you touched me like you
• 49:28
  Speaker 1: was the principal. Like, hold on, young man. He's like,
• 49:30
  Speaker 1: I know you tore your quads. I don't know how sensitive.
• 49:32
  Speaker 1: I know it's been a while. I don't want to
• 49:33
  Speaker 1: hurt you. No, but what I was about to say
• 49:41
  Speaker 1: is that him being in his situation, like he said,
• 49:44
  Speaker 1: to his point and what he's trying to preface, like, oh,
• 49:47
  Speaker 1: I grew up in this space, blah, blah, blah. You
• 49:49
  Speaker 1: have to read the room, too, as to when and not, yeah,
• 49:53
  Speaker 1: not how, but when you use that word. Would you agree? No, no, listen,
• 49:59
  Speaker 1: I'm going to say it with you, but I'm not
• 50:00
  Speaker 1: going to say it to my mama. You know what
• 50:02
  Speaker 1: I mean? I'm not going to be like, mom, you
• 50:04
  Speaker 1: made a nigga real happy with these pancakes. Yeah. No.
• 50:07
  Speaker 1: I'm saying it to you. I'm saying it to my friends.
• 50:09
  Speaker 1: You can say it to your mama because she grew
• 50:11
  Speaker 1: up in that space. No, my mom's Jamaican, so she'll
• 50:13
  Speaker 1: be like, what are you going to say? No. You
• 50:16
  Speaker 1: wouldn't call your mom, nigga. No, I wouldn't call her,
• 50:19
  Speaker 1: but I would use... You would say nigga around her. Yeah,
• 50:22
  Speaker 1: I would use the word around her. But my mom
• 50:24
  Speaker 1: would correct me. So I probably wouldn't even say it
• 50:26
  Speaker 1: around her. Because if I'm messing with my brother, my son,
• 50:28
  Speaker 1: my nigga, what you doing? Right. Your mom wouldn't go, uh, uh, uh? No. No.
• 50:33
  Speaker 1: I'd be like, nigga, what? So your mama's a cool-ass nigga? Yeah. Okay. Yeah.
• 50:38
  Speaker 1: It's just something like you're just used to it. We're
• 50:41
  Speaker 1: used to it. That's just what we do. It's in
• 50:43
  Speaker 1: the lexicon. There you go. All right. Let's talk about
• 50:46
  Speaker 1: my homegirl, one of my favorite niggas. Who? Mia Long. Oh, Mia. Oh,
• 50:54
  Speaker 1: my God. She's my heart. She's like a sister to me.
• 50:57
  Speaker 1: I don't know why I draw a blank sometimes when
• 50:59
  Speaker 1: they ask me about dream girls or whatever, like who...
• 51:02
  Speaker 1: Like a crush or whatever. She's one of them. It
• 51:06
  Speaker 1: just escapes me.
• 51:07
  Speaker 2: They put a list together and created a poll of
• 51:10
  Speaker 2: our finest black leading women.
• 51:12
  Speaker 1: Halle, Sanad Lathan, you name them. Guess who came up
• 51:19
  Speaker 1: number one? Nia. Nia Long. Oh, yeah. You know she's
• 51:23
  Speaker 1: been in like 15 rap songs. People love Nia Long,
• 51:27
  Speaker 1: so they hear her finally getting her just due. Yeah.
• 51:30
  Speaker 1: the star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. I'm so
• 51:33
  Speaker 1: proud of you and I'll be there. Yeah, I may
• 51:36
  Speaker 1: be there too. I may be there too. I'll be
• 51:40
  Speaker 1: his guest. It's plus one. But yeah, I mean, Neil Long,
• 51:43
  Speaker 1: obviously there was a lot of the scandal, the controversy
• 51:46
  Speaker 1: with Ume Udoka, who was at that time the coach
• 51:50
  Speaker 1: of the Boston Celtics. And then obviously like Somebody like that.
• 51:52
  Speaker 1: Who got a job real quick like a white man.
• 51:55
  Speaker 1: That's crazy. Like nobody does that in our, he needs
• 51:57
  Speaker 1: to be analyzed. That's crazy. Whatever he did, he needs
• 52:00
  Speaker 1: to teach classes, have a TED Talk. What? Nobody black
• 52:04
  Speaker 1: gets fired and then sits for a year and gets
• 52:06
  Speaker 1: another head coaching job like that. Not that cool. Ime,
• 52:09
  Speaker 1: you need to do a TED Talk. But obviously, like
• 52:13
  Speaker 1: you said, I mean, that was obviously traumatic. That's not something,
• 52:16
  Speaker 1: that's not an experience that, any woman should experience. You
• 52:19
  Speaker 1: have to go too short. Yeah, but I think when
• 52:21
  Speaker 1: you look at her, like, why would you fumble Nia Long? Like, why? Like, why?
• 52:28
  Speaker 1: What in your right mind would make you want to
• 52:31
  Speaker 1: cheat on Nia Long? Like, what was it about her
• 52:35
  Speaker 1: that she wasn't doing that you could find in somebody else?
• 52:39
  Speaker 1: You sound like them. Who? Them niggas? Women. Ha ha ha!
• 52:46
  Speaker 1: Let me tell you what my friend Ren Troy Brown
• 52:50
  Speaker 1: told me. Hold on. Before you tell me what Ren
• 52:51
  Speaker 1: Troy Brown said, but my thing is like when you
• 52:54
  Speaker 1: find somebody like that, like I've always like I've run
• 52:57
  Speaker 1: into Neil Long several times. When I used to live
• 52:59
  Speaker 1: in the Valley, we have P.O. boxes that I run
• 53:02
  Speaker 1: into a couple of times and I damn near stopped
• 53:03
  Speaker 1: in my track. I'm like, yo, this is Neil Long.
• 53:07
  Speaker 1: What should I say? Should I say anything? But we
• 53:09
  Speaker 1: run into each other a couple of times at our P.O. box.
• 53:11
  Speaker 1: And I just, I spoke or whatever. And I was like, yo,
• 53:14
  Speaker 1: when she, I'm like, yo, this is crazy. Like, this
• 53:16
  Speaker 1: is Nia Long. Like, she's beautiful. And then figure out
• 53:20
  Speaker 1: and find out she was dating this guy. And then
• 53:21
  Speaker 1: he phoned with her. And I'm like, yo, like, what
• 53:23
  Speaker 1: is her type? Like, what does it take to get
• 53:25
  Speaker 1: a lady, a woman like Nia Long? Do you think?
• 53:28
  Speaker 1: She would like somebody like me, or is she scarred
• 53:30
  Speaker 1: from men? And I heard that there was some talk
• 53:32
  Speaker 1: about sneaky links and things of that nature. Her friend
• 53:35
  Speaker 1: was talking on some podcast. I don't know. Do you
• 53:37
  Speaker 1: think I got a chance? I think you got a shot.

  Speaker 1: know her personally? Yes, that's my friend. We're going to
• 53:43
  Speaker 1: go together. She's getting her start. But I don't want
• 53:45
  Speaker 1: her to just go, but I mean, do you think
• 53:47
  Speaker 1: I have a chance? Do you think somebody like me
• 53:49
  Speaker 1: would have a chance? Everybody has a chance. I like it.
• 53:53
  Speaker 1: Any given Sunday, baby. Any given Sunday. So let me
• 53:55
  Speaker 1: tell you a story my boy Ren said. Because some
• 53:57
  Speaker 1: girl said, let me ask you something. Why do men cheat?
• 54:01
  Speaker 1: You know what he said? Have you ever had some pussy?
• 54:12
  Speaker 1: and then he talked that answers it that answers it

• 54:30

• 55:16
  Speaker 1: Breaking news. Perfect segue into Tyler Perry's Why'd I Get
• 55:19
  Speaker 1: Married Again. Listen, let me tell you something. Why did
• 55:22
  Speaker 1: she go back to email you again? He's a handsome fellow. Oh, man.
• 55:26
  Speaker 1: I'm handsome. Nigga, what? You should have hollered at her.
• 55:28
  Speaker 1: You knew her before him. Sometimes you just don't feel
• 55:32
  Speaker 1: like you, you know. You're their speed. It's not that
• 55:35
  Speaker 1: I don't feel like I'm worthy, but sometimes you just
• 55:38
  Speaker 1: feel like you're not in there. I've been rejected a
• 55:42
  Speaker 1: number of times. So you should have shot it at her. Yeah,
• 55:45
  Speaker 1: I should have shot my shot. It's not too late
• 55:47
  Speaker 1: because I don't really bleed. I don't bleed. Well, we'll
• 55:49
  Speaker 1: see if he's there at the ceremony. Nonetheless, Tyler Perry's
• 55:54
  Speaker 1: Why'd I Get Married Again was my favorite of the trilogy.
• 55:58
  Speaker 1: Have you seen it yet? It's on Netflix? Yeah. It's great. Oh, yeah.
• 56:01
  Speaker 1: Tasha Smith, Mike Jai White. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Richard T.
• 56:04
  Speaker 1: Jones is absolutely fantastic. Oh, yeah. Sharon Leal. His hair piece. Taraji. Oh,
• 56:08
  Speaker 1: my God. Yeah, that shit was funny. Hilarious. And they
• 56:11
  Speaker 1: did a great job. Da Vinci is in there, too.
• 56:13
  Speaker 1: Da Vinci. That's my boy. Yeah, yeah. Da Vinci kills it. Yep, yep, yep.
• 56:17
  Speaker 1: And they did a guy, Jill Scott is in it. Yeah, right, right.
• 56:21
  Speaker 1: I said Tasha Smith already. Yeah, exactly. They did a
• 56:23
  Speaker 1: great job of basically... showing the younger generation, I don't
• 56:29
  Speaker 1: want to give the movie away, that you're going to
• 56:33
  Speaker 1: make mistakes. Family, not, because as parents, you try to
• 56:38
  Speaker 1: paint a perfect picture for your kids. Oh, so you
• 56:40
  Speaker 1: did see it. I just told you. I told you
• 56:43
  Speaker 1: earlier that I saw it. You hesitated. That's CTE. Be
• 56:46
  Speaker 1: fucking with you. Yeah, yeah. If I hesitate, I think
• 56:48
  Speaker 1: I'm playing basketball, so I hesitate. No, but I did
• 56:52
  Speaker 1: see it. I watched it in its entirety. And yeah,
• 56:54
  Speaker 1: I love the basis, the premise of it. allowing kids
• 56:58
  Speaker 1: to make mistakes. Lamar Rucker. Sorry about that. Yeah. And
• 57:02
  Speaker 1: understanding that they can make mistakes. Absolutely. You're going to
• 57:06
  Speaker 1: make mistakes. Things aren't going to be perfect. You know
• 57:09
  Speaker 1: what I mean? And you can move forward in your imperfections.
• 57:12
  Speaker 1: And I think as parents, we try to shield our
• 57:15
  Speaker 1: kids from a lot of things for the better. Right.
• 57:19
  Speaker 1: But as they get older, I think it's at some
• 57:22
  Speaker 1: point you have to really educate your kids and really
• 57:24
  Speaker 1: show them that, yo, we're not perfect. We may show
• 57:28
  Speaker 1: you how things are supposed to be, but behind closed doors,
• 57:31
  Speaker 1: and that's how a lot of couples are. In the
• 57:34
  Speaker 1: eye of public opinion, you think that everything is... Hunky-dory
• 57:38
  Speaker 1: and perfect. Right, rainbows and everything, but behind closed doors,
• 57:44
  Speaker 1: it's a storm going on. But that just shows you
• 57:47
  Speaker 1: the maturity in their relationship that they can go outside
• 57:50
  Speaker 1: of that and show that, like, okay, we're still together,
• 57:53
  Speaker 1: but we're working behind the scenes. That is the end
• 57:55
