Speaker 1 (00:01):
The volume bad. You're gonna have to change your ways.

Speaker 2 (00:13):
Dan Carr announces in retirement from the NFL LO Show
thirty four. Recently underwent multiple medical evaluations on his shoulder.
Shoulder was deemed the only route back to one hundred
percent and that would mean six up to six months
of recovery. Car retires after staying on eleven season. He's
a four time Pro bowler, two hundred and fifty seven touchdowns,
forty one thousand passing yards, top twenty five all time,

(00:36):
third place in the MVP vote.

Speaker 1 (00:40):
He walks away from thirty.

Speaker 3 (00:41):
Mil Hey, I have a question. I'm I'm confused. We
in April, we just had the draft. Yeah, the season ended?
How long ago? December?

Speaker 2 (00:55):
Well, this season in the January beginning of Jacon. But
he know he was his season been over because he
got hurt. Remember Rap, You're.

Speaker 3 (01:01):
Trying to understand why wasn't the situation rectified so you
come into the season healthy. Why we still talking about
the same thing we were talking about last year?

Speaker 1 (01:10):
What was it? You know?

Speaker 2 (01:11):
Sometimes don't yo, you know, they give you say rest
and then when rest don't do it. I say, now,
you don't let two months pass and rest and when
you should.

Speaker 1 (01:18):
Have went in and had that shoulder and staen. You
know good well, you don't play route nothing like that.

Speaker 3 (01:23):
Anything with the upper extremities, with the arms, especially when
it comes to a quarterback. You want to get all
those issues done and out the way. If there was
even a thought the inclination that there's something wrong with
it that would hamper your throwing motion or playing your
position at the best of your ability, you go get
it fixed.

Speaker 1 (01:40):
You go get it, Go get it.

Speaker 2 (01:42):
Jo Derek Carr has made two hundred and five million
dollars in his career. He has a seventy seven and
ninety two record, four fifty five win percentage, just one
trip to the playoffs, and I think they lost to
you guys the most cash. From twenty fourteen to twenty

(02:02):
twenty four, Aaron Rodgers has made two hundred and ninety
two million. First Cousins two ninety one, Matthew Stafford to
eighty seven, Russell Wilson to sixty four, Dak Prescott two
forty four, Jered Goff two thirty four, Matt Ryan two
twenty two, Tom Brady one ninety eight, Derek Carr one

(02:22):
ninety six, and my Homeboy one seventy nine.

Speaker 3 (02:26):
Boy, make a pretty penny, boy, and make a pretty pen.
And you know the funny thing about it. I was upset.
I was sad.

Speaker 1 (02:32):
You know, I don't like to see players hurt.

Speaker 3 (02:34):
Hell, I god damn tweeted the broken heart emoji about
Derek Carr being gone, and then I had to remember, Well,
you know what the people in the people in in
New Orleans, in Baton Rouge in Louisiana, man, they happy,
they cheering, they second lining. Oh, I mean, I know
you're happy Derek Carr is going. You didn't like your
quarterback that you had, But now who you got. Now

(02:56):
you got Spencer Raller. No disrespect to him, young buy.

Speaker 2 (02:59):
Yes, spc rally They took they took the quarterback. What
his name slot.

Speaker 1 (03:07):
Shucked, They took shuck. I'm just telling you who they took.

Speaker 3 (03:14):
I ain't, I ain't.

Speaker 1 (03:15):
I ain't shucking with jo Joe. That's what they took.

Speaker 4 (03:17):
That.

Speaker 3 (03:17):
Yeah, that's that's exactly how the saint's gonna be. They're
gonna be shook until they get a goddamn quarterback. You know, listen,
if my people in New Orleans bo, we ain't got
no patience. We ain't got no patience. We didn't deal
with too much. We need a quarterback.

Speaker 2 (03:31):
Well, what happens is you get spoiled. You had Drew
Breezese for fifteen years, and then you.

Speaker 1 (03:37):
You think every quarter that's hard to follow that. You
know it.

Speaker 2 (03:39):
Look, you're not gonna be Green Bay. You're not gonna
have bread Fahr for fifteen twenty years. You're not gonna
have Aaron Rodgers. And then you go right to Love.
That is happening. You're not finna have. Most teams don't
get to have thirty forty years. I mean, you're talking
about could be forty plus years of prosperity at the
quarterback position. That's that is absurd to think about it,

(04:02):
because think about it. You had seventeen years with bread Book,
about seventeen years with far and then you have another
eighteen years with Rogers and now you have Love.

Speaker 1 (04:11):
So that's what thirty thirty five years?

Speaker 2 (04:14):
So you're about to have forty five, maybe even fifty
years of prosperity.

Speaker 1 (04:19):
At the quarterback.

Speaker 3 (04:19):
And not just any quarterback. We talk about them boys
like that. That boy, Yes, you can make a case.
Aaron Rodgers is one of the greatest of all task
was Brett Farr and listen to George Love in his
own right, it's on his way to be just that
as well as he continues to improve year in the
year out.

Speaker 1 (04:37):
But Derek Carr is done. He says, no, I don't
want to go go through that anymore.

Speaker 2 (04:42):
He says, I talked to old, my wife and my family,
and six months or rehab for thirty.

Speaker 3 (04:48):
Million, like now it ain't even worth Wait a minute,
wait a minute, stay with me right now, Hey, Chad,
y'all stay with me real quick.

Speaker 1 (04:54):
My Saints fans me what you think about this? Now?

Speaker 3 (04:56):
I know, based on what we saw from him last year,
it wasn't anything to hype about, you know, it wasn't nothing.

Speaker 1 (05:02):
To second line about.

Speaker 3 (05:03):
But how about Aaron Rodgers coming in for a year
in New Orleans until we get the rookie right or
the for Spencer rally and also you know watch and
learn behind him? What y'all think about that? I know
I got some same fans in this chat. I'm just curious,
what's your thought on that.

Speaker 1 (05:17):
I let the same fans run, I let the same fans.
What do you think? No, Yank, what do you think
one year. No, No, okay, God did work out for
the Jets. He was there two years. I mean, I
mean you right, I'm just curious.

Speaker 3 (05:31):
I was just curious you your thought processing, bringing in
the veteran presence, you know, to see what they could
do with Aaron.

Speaker 2 (05:36):
But if you say no, then it's no. But the
thing is, oh Joe, but you're bringing him in for
one year. What are we getting out of one year?

Speaker 3 (05:43):
Development for the younger quarterbacks, allowing them to see how
it should look, how it should.

Speaker 1 (05:47):
Let them develop.

Speaker 2 (05:48):
You told me, guys don't get better by being on
the bench. Okay, that's what you tell me. You're right,
You're right, You're right. I'm just curious. Saints head coach
Kellen Moore said he will rotate all their quarterbacks, give
them all opportunity as one tries tries to seize the
starting job. We're going to let all three of these
guys roll. Each will be given a chance to win

(06:09):
the Saints starting job.

Speaker 3 (06:11):
The people in the chat, the Saints fans that got
fuck this shit we cooked.

Speaker 1 (06:20):
Has some stats for Shook.

Speaker 2 (06:22):
He has the second worst quarterback accuracy versus power five
opponents of any quarterback in this class, forty two percent
completion rate when pressures, fifty eight percent completion rate when blissed.
Saw the performance when kept clean. All quarterbacks are good
when you keep them clean. Yeah, you got to be listen, Hey,

(06:42):
oh Joe, my house is immaculate when it's clean.

Speaker 3 (06:46):
Duh, Hey listen. Under pressure, under pressure, and a lot
of times you're gonna be underpressed. Factly, how accurate and
consistent can you be when you're under duress? That's that's
the tall tale time of a great quarterback. Always calm underpressure,
always always accurate under pressure, regardless of what's coming coming at.

Speaker 1 (07:11):
Him from all the time, right man.

Speaker 3 (07:14):
And again, that's why that's why I questioned the draft again,
that's why christened the draft again. Could you take those
same numbers you just talked about, and I'm not gonna
say his name, but you know who I'm talking about,
and you look at what he had to deal with
because his official line play wasn't that good, but for
some reason, unc I.

Speaker 1 (07:31):
Mean, he was highly accurate. Still, it's funny how that works,
but that's neither here nor there.

Speaker 2 (07:41):
So as a wide receiver, you want a guy that
can catch the ball in traffic, now tell anybody can
catch when they wide open.

Speaker 1 (07:47):
I hope the hell the door.

Speaker 2 (07:52):
Spoke to the media today and had a couple of
notable sound bites listening to what should do her on
critics saying that he didn't have the talent to be
selected at the top the draft.

Speaker 1 (08:00):
Let's take a listen to what your doing had to say,
Oh Joe.

Speaker 5 (08:03):
And.

Speaker 6 (08:04):
I mean thank you for saying that, because I don't
like my job here isnt to prove people wrong, right.

Speaker 1 (08:09):
I prove myself right.

Speaker 6 (08:11):
That's that's that's and and I fully self belief, you know,
And uh what those people say, that's just their opinion.
So I don't truly care. They don't really live in
life mental space about that type of stuff. Really didn't
do anything for me.

Speaker 1 (08:32):
Like that.

Speaker 2 (08:32):
And that's what I tell people. Your job is not
to prove somebody wrong. Is your job to prove yourself right.
And if you prove yourself right, and the process of
proving you right, you approve them wrong. And that's the
thing that you know you have to learn and it's
it's been a process.

Speaker 1 (08:50):
Stop worrying about what people that don't know you think.

Speaker 2 (08:53):
I think a lot of people have to stop worrying
about that, because, oh tell you heard me say this.
All I want people to love. I just need the
people that I love to love me. Come on, now,
see you trying to see you you trying to and
and and and and you know, obviously the elephant is
not in the room. He outside. But everybody knows what
I'm going through. A lot of people have a lot

(09:13):
to say. But as my brother been calling me in,
a lot of I mean a lot of people. And
thank you all everybody just reached out and the thoughts
and prayers. I sincerely appreciate that. But but when you
think about it, on Joe Man, fifty percent of the
people don't care that you got problems. The other fifty

(09:35):
percent glad that you got them. I'm on pastorm so
now I'm pastor take your time. I agree with your door.
I'm not worried about Look, I'm worry a this is
why I'm in Cleveland. Thirty other t thirty one other
teams that didn't select me. And I understand that there's
some teams, you know, Cincinnati and Baltimore, certain teams weren't

(09:57):
in the real quarterback. I'm not talking about those. Thank you,
Cleveland for giving me an opportunity, because sometimes all you
need is an opportunity. And now what you do with
that opportunity will tell us who and what you are.
But the thing is on Shoe is that you know

(10:19):
you have to learn that I'm learning and it's still
a learning process.

Speaker 1 (10:23):
Is that you got to draw out to knowing.

Speaker 2 (10:25):
Man, you can't be concerned with everybody because everybody's gonna
have an opinion. Everybody think they know you, they really do.
Everybody think they know you when they really don't. They
heard this, they heard that. Have you ever talked to Shane?
Have you have been around with Shannon? Have you been
around O Joe? Have you been to no Choe's present?
So what makes you what makes you think you know them?

(10:45):
How well do you know them?

Speaker 1 (10:48):
So you're do it?

Speaker 2 (10:49):
Just go do your thing, That's all that's that's all
they can do now, O Joe. It is now, it's
about slaying. At some point in time, the talking will
stop and you got to play. The playing will start,
the cream will rise to the top, and then we'll
have something to talk about.

Speaker 1 (11:03):
But right now, I bet I don't.

Speaker 2 (11:05):
Really, Yeah, they keep I think sometimes I think they
keep they want to make him frustrated and wanted to
make him flash out.

Speaker 1 (11:13):
Yeah I should have been this, Yeah I should be that.
He's too well.

Speaker 3 (11:15):
See that, Hey, I call him he's seasoned, even though
he's just getting here, based on where he's coming from,
he's seasoned. He's already prepared, mentally prepared for this. He's
gonna be fine. And the one thing I do like
is I want to prove me wrong. I want to
prove me wrong. We have too many people today, especially
in today's society. We're in a social media era where

(11:36):
everybody is worried about looking a certain way, dressing a
certain way, looking at the part, and looking like I
have it, because it's a worried about what everybody that's
gonna say.

Speaker 1 (11:45):
Every morning you get up and you look in that mirror.

Speaker 3 (11:48):
That's the person in competition with that's it. Yep, that's
the person in competition. I just need to beat him
from yesterday with Joe.

Speaker 2 (11:56):
Honestly, I just need to be better today than that
guy was yes Yeah.

Speaker 3 (12:00):
Every time, and every time you look in the mirror, right,
and you have to understand, I'm competing against me. And
anytime you compare yourself to somebody else comparison to the
thief of joy, I'm gonna be sad every time depending
on who you're comparing yourself to. Man, shit, you better
put them goddamn horse binders on leg at the Kentucky
Tuck Kentucky Kentucky Derby.

Speaker 1 (12:21):
Put your head down and just go straightforward.

Speaker 3 (12:24):
You at your own because you don't know, you don't
know nothing about nobody else.

Speaker 1 (12:27):
Story. No, no, not about nobody else. Story.

Speaker 3 (12:31):
Focus on your food right down in front of you,
and stop trying to pick off what other people play. Man,
you're gonna be all right. Man, too many people they
lose like that. Uh, they lose like that word by everybody?
Do you dry yourself crazy? Trying to please everybody too?

Speaker 1 (12:45):
You do you do? Because at the end of the day,
are you happy? Could there have been times?

Speaker 2 (12:52):
Don't you where in the process of trying to please somebody,
I was trying to please everybody else, but the one
person that was unhappy was me. So in the process
said everybody else is happy, everybody is static. They do
I'm giving that they're doing this and they're doing that,
and I'm miserable.

Speaker 1 (13:13):
I'm asking myself, is it enough?

Speaker 2 (13:15):
What else do I need to do because I'm trying
to make sure everybody else is happy, and deep down
inside I'm dying.

Speaker 1 (13:25):
That's a.

Speaker 2 (13:28):
It's one thing to be alone, it's something else entirely
different to be lonely. See, there are two different things
alone and lonely. So you can be alone and be
content with that. You can be someone, you can be
with someone and be lonely.

Speaker 1 (13:48):
Hold on, hold on, hold on, Hey, why you said something?

Speaker 2 (14:02):
It's uh, that's a very fine line on, yo, that's
a very very fine life.

Speaker 3 (14:10):
I'm just there, boy, Hey, alone and lonely. You could
be alone, but it don't mean you lonely.

Speaker 1 (14:20):
Correct that.

Speaker 3 (14:24):
The correct that juicy next time I get when I
get in my next argument, I get in my next
argument with Shan, I'm I'm gonna use that.

Speaker 1 (14:31):
Yeah, Yeah, I use that. Yeah, it's it's uh. But
a lot of times don't, Yoe.

Speaker 2 (14:38):
And the thing is is that, like when you've been
alone for a long period of time.

Speaker 1 (14:48):
You realize that you really don't have time for bs.
But but you know, we talked about humans though you
know we all put a little baggage.

Speaker 3 (15:02):
Now, not when you're alone for a very long period
of time, Depending on how long that period may be,
you go into a understanding at some point, even though
you don't want to deal with no bs, it come
with something.

Speaker 1 (15:15):
Yeah, oh Joe. I think the thing is is that
what I've learned in my life.

Speaker 2 (15:23):
Is that you're dating a person's past and all the
trauma that's in that past, and people don't understand that.
And the thing is that people don't put on their
resume because if I have to fill out something, you
think I'm gonna put my worst attributes on that resume.
I'm gonna put my best foot forward, and I'm gonna

(15:45):
tell you all the reasons why I should have this job,
not the reasons why I shouldn't. So if a person
wants to be in a relationship, they're gonna tell you
all the things, then show you all the things, the
reasons why you should select he or her in that
relationship like that, Like that, it's not what you know
that hurts you, it's what you find out that hurts you.

(16:08):
I'm done, I'm done, I'm done.

Speaker 1 (16:12):
I'm done.

Speaker 3 (16:13):
Hey, a pastor, sharp, don't do the congregation like that
because I know I know this chat.

Speaker 1 (16:17):
I know I'm not the only one take a notes.
I know the chat chat. I know y'all taking notes.
Don't don't lie to me now, but take your time now.
I think that's the thing. People like.

Speaker 2 (16:27):
What I don't know won't hurt me, but what you
find out later, yeah, could hurt you.

Speaker 1 (16:32):
See that's what I love. I love, I love I
love starting.

Speaker 3 (16:35):
I love starting, And for us and for people that
are known where where it's it's a simple Google. We
talk about people feeling out their resumes and always putting
their best foot forward when they meet people. You know,
for those that don't like be honest, like listen, I
come with baggage. I come with a B, C and D.
But I'm gonna check the boxes what you need done
for you in your life and me helping you, I'm

(16:57):
also gonna be I provide, D, E N L. So
can we counter or can we balance and come to
a happy medium where you understand what baggage I do have?

Speaker 1 (17:07):
And bitch, can you unpack it right?

Speaker 3 (17:11):
Because you're not going to meet anybody where everything is
oh my god, it's peace of that's that's not reality.
But we love to make it make We love to
make it seem like you're the greatest thing women all
the time.

Speaker 1 (17:25):
Oh he fumbled me.

Speaker 3 (17:27):
You mean to tell me everybody you came across fumbled you.

Speaker 2 (17:32):
You just must get must have been must have been rained.
You must be real slip you can't hold on you?
Are you that much of a catch?

Speaker 1 (17:40):
Damn?

Speaker 3 (17:40):
No marriage, every relationship like it's because we're all human
at the end of the day, no matter what we
may think about ourselves.

Speaker 1 (17:49):
You gotta you gotta feel hotly about yourself. You you
have to.

Speaker 3 (17:52):
But at the end of the day, Oh, you're here
regular at the end of the day. No, you know,
you put your stuff on, your aesthetics and your jewely,
your makeup. When you take all that ship off, that's
the real you.

Speaker 1 (18:03):
You still You're still just you. You're just human.

Speaker 2 (18:06):
I think at the at the end of the day,
O Joe, is that what I what I wanted to say?
I wanted to say.

Speaker 1 (18:18):
I forgot my train of thought. I was.

Speaker 2 (18:20):
I was gonna say something. I don't know if it
was profound or not, but I wanted to say I
want I wanted to say it to come back to me,
take a time.

Speaker 1 (18:29):
Not it was uh what I wanted to say.

Speaker 2 (18:32):
It was on the tip of my tongue, and I
want and out of, out of I don't let it
slip my mind. I'm gonna go upstairs to night and
I'll be thinking about I said. That's what I wanted
to tell o Jo. That's that's exactly.

Speaker 1 (18:42):
Oh. I know what this young lady told me one time.

Speaker 2 (18:49):
She said, Shannon, you got a lot of scar tissue,
she said, But let me love you with all those scars.
She said, Shannon, the thing is with you, you don't
know how to receive love. I don't know if you've

(19:12):
ever been loved, but I do know you don't know
how to receive it. She said, I'll love you past
all those scars if you just allow it. I wanted
to put my head on the shoulder and cry with you.
That's what I wanted to do. But uh, you know,

(19:34):
at that stage, pride wouldn't let me. Uh, it wouldn't
let me. So I think that's the the thing that.

Speaker 1 (19:51):
We all want.

Speaker 2 (19:52):
We want to be loved, we want to be appreciated. Well,
you got what you got.

Speaker 3 (19:55):
Me by the tear up, you know you whatever, But
say sit that one more time. Say say the line
about the scars. Say say the line she told me
about the scall.

Speaker 2 (20:07):
She said, she wanted she wanted to love. She wanted
to love me in spite of my scars. She said,
I see the scar tissue, she said, I see the
hurt in your heart. I hear the way you talk.
I see the way you look, she said. I here,
I see it, and I hear all of that. She said,
But I could love you past all that. She said,
I just need you to receive the love that I'm

(20:28):
trying to give you.

Speaker 1 (20:29):
Well, that's deep there, boy. People don't understand. Oh man.

Speaker 2 (20:34):
She door had a hilarious response after being asked if
he was going to buy number two off DeAndre Carter.

Speaker 1 (20:39):
Let's take a listen to what she doing had to
say about number two Jersey. You try to buy from beyond. No,
I'm not trying to buy anything. My sign ain't thing
all right here.

Speaker 2 (20:58):
I don't believe you should do her? Uh you bread?
Like I said when I went to Baltimore, O Joe,
I didn't want no. I didn't want an odd number.
I didn't want eighty one or eighty three, eighty five,
something like that. I didn't want that. I wanted an
even number. I went to jam Jamaine Lewis, who had
number eighty. I offered him here is, I said, I'll

(21:19):
buy you and your wife matching Rolex. You get a
his get hers like. He said, nah, I want to
keep it. So I ain't never really liked that. I
being the eighty eight number, just didn't see well with
Matt eighty two Frank wring White, Frank Wayne Wright had it,
and I was like, I hate him. I said, freaking

(21:43):
frank Man, what you want for that number? He was
with If I'm not mistaken, I think he was with
me a couple of like in ninety nine. He ended
up getting released. He was with me in Denver, so
I kind of knew him a little bit. I said,
pre you call him freaking Frank. I said, freaking frank Man,
what you want for eighty two? He like, sharpe, y'all
don't want anything? You could have it. I said, nah, nah, nah,
freaking frak that's your number, and I want to get

I said, how much does a bass boat costs? But
the salt sharper. You don't have to do that, I said,
if you want to. I bought him a bass I did.
I bought him a bass boat. Hey, if I if

(22:25):
I was willing to give you know back then Rolex
is probably his and hers probably been about thirty thousand.
If I will to do that to get that, get
eighty four a bass boat?

Speaker 1 (22:35):
Take I played like fourteen okay, okay, okay, oh see
you you got off much better? Okay, yeah yeah.

Speaker 2 (22:43):
So uh and plus Oddy kind of had that number,
I said, But I said, I the same. It ain't Cleveland,
I said, if it was Cleveland, it'd be one thing
you ain't just ain't Cleveland. So but it was good.
It worked out, and so I don't blame you to do.
I ain't paying noh money. I ain't paying nothing either.
A feelth thrived. I picked now when I got eighty
four because I was eighty one. My first two yards

the equipment got the time. I said, bro, you might
as well go ahead and take that sharp off eighty
one and put it on the back of eighty four.

Speaker 1 (23:41):
I already called Dan, boy, you talking about happy?

Speaker 3 (23:46):
I feel damn having the number. You want to just
do something to you?

Speaker 1 (23:51):
Can? I ask your question? It does DeAndre Ricardo? What what?

Speaker 2 (23:55):
What position young boy play? I don't know what position
the DeAndre car play is? He probably offense? I'm a
faked receiver.

Speaker 1 (24:07):
What was he in college? He had to be a
high draft pick, didn't you? So he's a rookie. He's
a rookie coming in.

Speaker 2 (24:16):
He's not a rookie. He already had it. Oh he
might have came in free agency, oh.

Speaker 1 (24:23):
Joe, And I mean, why wouldn't he give hold on?

Speaker 3 (24:27):
Now? When you have a single digit number right where
that single digit number, you understand what comes you gotta
do what comes with that? Whether it be Pop Warner,
middle school, high school, in the NFL, everybody with a
single digito.

Speaker 1 (24:46):
Is that boy? DeAndre Carter.

Speaker 2 (24:49):
He's been number sixteen, number fourteen, number nineteen. He's been
won twice. He's been eighty two, he's been three, he's
been eleven. Now he's number two. Why you name so
many numbers because he's been on that many teams? All right,
no disrespect to him.

Speaker 3 (25:03):
I hope Young Bull has a phenomenal season and showed
that you know what out with that number two on
candy of business.

Speaker 2 (25:12):
But a number two, Hey, you got a a anything
from one to nine. You gotta be fashion. You cannot
warn't no single digit number if you got like That's
why I said, why would why would? Okay, but but
I hope young Bull that's mandatory. I mean, period, Certain
things are just mandatory.

Speaker 3 (25:31):
That is true too at that A yes to use
any college I mean, NFL single digit numbers are for
those who are like rapped, they put butts in the seats.

Speaker 1 (25:48):
But that's neither here nor there. Yeah, for sure, I was.

Speaker 2 (25:56):
I was single digit different since because I took the
number three from my brother. So I went three all
the way through high school and I went two all
the way through college. So yeah, I wish, I wish
we could have single digit numbers because I definitely would
have got number two.

Speaker 1 (26:13):
Brand had it.

Speaker 2 (26:14):
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, I definitely would have got number two. Well,
Mike and Ran the punter had it, but as soon
as he left, I'd have got it because back then,
Oh Joe, it wasn't like it is now. You got
a number and if you change numbers, you all the
other the jerseys and circulations.

Speaker 3 (26:32):
All that had I had to do that. Yeah, oh
oh did you absolutely now? Listen, I had no problem
doing it because I understood. I understood what that name changed.
It done, Oh Joe.

Speaker 2 (26:48):
We know how the media likes to critique any misstep
time sons to paint a false narrative. I bet they
won't highlight how respectful they are watch the video or
show shallow shake it. Every media member had been full
startup first availability let's take a listen, Yoe, my.

Speaker 1 (27:04):
New media in your.

Speaker 3 (27:07):
So we got see loving Shadow, Rock Clasure, Bens, Brandon, God.

Speaker 5 (27:19):
Please please get you Wow. I'm honest, all right, I
just stay right here.

Speaker 1 (27:34):
I like.

Speaker 2 (27:34):
According to jenneal A, Shalloh was the only player who's
done that this week. He said Bucks were the first
team to call He's forever grateful that they gave him
a chance.

Speaker 1 (27:43):
Hey, listen, you.

Speaker 3 (27:45):
Might you might want to make friends with him that
because they they're gonna they gonna, they're gonna be right there.

Speaker 1 (27:48):
They're gonna be like gnats. They they're gonna be like
next and they're gonna be fair. You know. So everything
is up to you. That's all we asked. They're gonna
be fair. Everything is up to you.

Speaker 3 (27:59):
You might as well be nice to him because they
they're gonna be in your face for a very very
long time.

Speaker 2 (28:04):
I'd be so good that when I have a bad game,
it's like, hey, this is a namoration. This is not
how he normally plays. Yep, that's I mean. I was very,
very fortunate. I think I think the thing is on Joe,
like when you come in as a low draft pick,
you get a lot more grace because there's not the
expectation of a first, second, third round pick on you.
So he's an undrafted fridge and so he'll get more

(28:26):
benefit of the doubt than someone that was the first
second or third year, first second or third round pick,
or a veteran player that's played for a number of years.

Speaker 1 (28:35):
Kind of like I was silver up pick. Oh, Joe
wasn't gonna say, oh, he's not very good.

Speaker 2 (28:38):
I was several up pick, but when I got good,
he's like, hey, I remember this guy with special teams.

Speaker 1 (28:44):
We saw our hardy work. Blah blah blah, X, Y
and Z. He'll give them the grace, but he would
have earned it. Oh Joe.

Speaker 2 (29:00):
Teans reportedly laughed at the idea of adding George Pickets
to their roster. According to Jeff Howiver Athletic, these were
Jeff words exactly. Wordlea during the draft that Pickets was
available if anyone wanted him. Some teams polled by the
Athletic at the time laughed at the idea of inviting
Pickets into their locker room for any price, let alone

(29:23):
a second day draft pick. There wasn't a lot of
interest in talking with the Steelers about the trade. Hence
this is why the trade happened after the draft.

Speaker 1 (29:35):
Nobody was interesting.

Speaker 3 (29:37):
I also would love to hit the teams that weren't
interested in the team that did laugh. I had something
to say slick about it. Now, I know the issues
that he had on field, but I let's talk about
what he does on the field. I know we've had
small instance, the small, small instances of him where he's loafed,
where he hasn't blocked.

Speaker 1 (29:54):
Being laid, hadn't run hard, run and hard.

Speaker 3 (29:57):
Now let's talk about the times and when he does
play hard and what he can do for you when
he gets the ball in his hands. There's a bunch
of teams that could actually use that, A bunch of
teams that got chose that you know.

Speaker 1 (30:08):
Who don't have anything.

Speaker 2 (30:09):
Joe, Oh Joe, you do realize his job is to
play hard all the time.

Speaker 3 (30:15):
I understand that, But can I tell you something to
every play hard all the time?

Speaker 2 (30:21):
Oh Joe, it can't be that obvious. I know I'll
get the ball, be right, listen, I'm with you. I'm
just not magnified. It's magnified.

Speaker 4 (30:31):
You know.

Speaker 1 (30:31):
You know what I'm trying to say.

Speaker 2 (30:32):
Let me yet, Yeah, I'm trying to say, but you're right,
You're right. He But see the problem that he has
is that if that's Randy Moss, he ain't Mom. Yes,
he ain't Jared Rice. So you don't get to have
that luxury of.

Speaker 1 (30:48):
Taking a funny with it by Randy was funny with it.

Speaker 2 (30:53):
So when George Pickings can give you twenty three touchdowns,
when he can give you sixteen seventeen on the.

Speaker 3 (30:58):
Yards and they take a playoff. Now he's that type
of player, though, but you know what it takes to
get that. It takes opportunities, it takes the ball. It
does and we understand the quarterback carousel and the issues
they had offenses be over there where that would that
wasn't the case. He's that type of talent, now what whatever.
You can't start off like that, oh Joe, huh. You
can't start off like that. You can't be like that

(31:20):
in your first couple of years. You gotta get some
you gotta get some seniority on.

Speaker 2 (31:23):
Your field, right right right, Hey, that's your that's your
five year six after you've been to the Pro Bowl
three or four times, you've been a first team All
Pro a couple of times.

Speaker 1 (31:32):
You can't do that. Coming out, they fought. I know,
I know, I know, I know we were frustrated. I
know he was frustrated, like you know what.

Speaker 3 (31:38):
You know, I know I know he was because you
look at you look at some of the players, even
you doing it doing it. If I think it was
you that did the comparison as far from a talent standpoint,
when it was coming out the draft.

Speaker 1 (31:49):
You know. Yeah. I mean, dude, immensely talented.

Speaker 3 (31:52):
There's just another side that once we fix that up,
he matures a little bit. He's gonna be all right. Listen,
after that conversation I had with him, he gonna be alright.
I'm not gonna have no issues in Dallas because listen,
my back against the wall.

Speaker 1 (32:02):
Nine. You're seeing all the young bulls get paid.

Speaker 3 (32:05):
They making big money. You need to be a thirty
thirty five million dollars receiver. You can be that if
you show this year in Dallas, ed the world is
watching nine.

Speaker 1 (32:15):
You on the biggest stage, Baby, You on the biggest stage.
Just go out there and do what you need to do.
Handy a Bnnis and get your bag in the off season.

Speaker 2 (32:25):
Most receiving yards in the Steelers drafted in the last
twenty years. Antonio Brown was a six round draft pick
in twenty ten. He averaged eighty six point two yards
with the Steelers. He averaged sixty seven point eight with
two teams after that. Mike Wallace was a round three
pick in two thousand and nine, sixty four yards with
the Steelers, less than fifty with four teams after that.

Speaker 1 (32:48):
San Antonio Holmes.

Speaker 2 (32:51):
Sixty four yards with the Steelers, Round one selection in
two thousand and six, forty two yards with two teams
after left. Juju sixty one yards with the Steelers, thirty
five yards, two teams after he left the Steelers. George
Pickens Round two twenty twenty two, fifty nine yards.

Speaker 1 (33:08):
We'll see what the average.

Speaker 2 (33:10):
Deontay Johnson twenty nineteen, a Round three selection, fifty seven yards,
thirty one point three, three teams after. Sometimes the grass
ain't always green up. The Steelers don't have The one
thing we know about the Steelers though, oh Joe, they
ain't got no problem moving.

Speaker 1 (33:27):
They don't.

Speaker 3 (33:28):
After they get what they want to out of them,
they get a whole lot of production out the one
they move on from first NAC You know, I mean
you think about it.

Speaker 1 (33:36):
Think about who I mean, Swan Stalwart.

Speaker 2 (33:40):
And and and hyes Ward, all the other seasons been.
Lewis Lymps left, the Yancy pick Pin left, Yeah, I mean,
think about it, on Joe, all the other was left.

Speaker 1 (33:53):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (33:54):
Uh, Plax, Mike Wallace and Mayo Sanders are every everybody obviously,
it's a nature of.

Speaker 2 (34:02):
Oh Chase, Mark Tavius Briant fifty three yards thirty three
yards a game with the Raiders, Chase Claypool fifty two
yards now less than twelve yards a game with.

Speaker 3 (34:13):
Two Also, also you have to understand the situation these
individuals went to. They're going into a different They went
into a different situation. George Pickts is going into a
situation where he is a Boti fight number one alongside
another number one, where offensively they're going to use him
a lot more than these other players were used when
they went to the places they went to. Again, and
he's also a much and I mean no disrespect. I

(34:36):
got to say that he's a much better talent and
receiver than everybody else. You just named two outside of
Antonio'brian Antonio Brown's.

Speaker 1 (34:48):
Yeah, I was gonna say he better than Antonio.

Speaker 3 (34:50):
Man brother Brown might be top five all time, depending
on who you ask.

Speaker 2 (34:57):
I just look, the thing is for whatever, but it's
got to be something in Pittsburgh. Look at all the
receivers named and for some reason, I you either coaching
or you tolerated, don't Yoe?

Speaker 1 (35:12):
Now what is it? What's going on? You coaching or
you tolerated? Which in is it? O't Yoe, I'm asking
where you got what other team have a position?

Speaker 2 (35:24):
What other team has a running back position, a D
line position, a quarterback position, a quarterback position. With this
biting hold on, this is the last twenty years sold one, two, three, four, five, six,
seven eight. We didn't mention Plats. We didn't mention Emmanuel Sanders.
So that's that's ten receivers in the last two decades.

Speaker 1 (35:48):
What's going on?

Speaker 3 (35:49):
Listen, we go down the other thirty one teams, they'll
probably be the same goddamn thing.

Speaker 2 (35:54):
So we got ten players at one position that the
team has got rid of.

Speaker 3 (35:58):
Who best then to the business? Is the nation's business too?
Now come on, now, no, it's nothing, Joe, don't do that.

Speaker 1 (36:05):
Name the team. I don't have it in front of me.
I'm just sinning. No, you ain't gotta have it in
front of it.

Speaker 2 (36:09):
You, off the top of your head, name ten players
that play a position for any team that's had these
kind of issues what the stevel has had with.

Speaker 4 (36:18):
Shoot, no, do do do do do do do.

Speaker 5 (36:36):
Do do?

Speaker 1 (36:38):
All right, let's see what you roll down on, Joe.
I can't. I can't think of nothing, cause there ain't none.
You ain't naming.

Speaker 2 (36:45):
You're not naming ten players for one team at one position.
I ain't talking about getting rid of somebody from Okay,
we got rid of wire receive, we got rid of
her tight end, we got rid of her dB.

Speaker 1 (36:56):
We got this is all one position on Joe. Yeah,
you're right. Well, maybe they just have they got bad
luck over there. You coach it or you can done
it at a little bit of both, depending on how
good he is.

Speaker 2 (37:09):
Okay, according to James Slater, George Pickott says he found
out when everyone else found out about the trade. He says,
like the Mojo and the Swaggers here. George Pickon was
asked how he sees himself in this offense with CD Lamb.
He says he definitely sees himself on the outside. He

(37:29):
doesn't really understand the notion of a one A and
one B receiver. When I used to watch football, there
was always a good receiver. There's always a good receiver
on the other side of so I just feel like
we're gonna work off of each other really well. Pickts
was asked what he brings to the team as a teammate.
He said he's bringing people along. He knows how to
win having won a championship at Georgia. He says he
doesn't know what number he plans on whearing yet. Next

(37:51):
order of business is getting here and quickly as he can,
but he needs to find a place on a vehicle.
Haven't talked to Jerry yet, but spoken with Dak and
the coaches and met some of the players. Speaking of
Swagged Dallas, Cowboy Pro Shop is already sold out of Shisty's.

Speaker 1 (38:10):
I'm getting this. I got I got a few jerseys.

Speaker 3 (38:12):
I gotta get me this off season two man, I
gotta get me a George Picking Dallan jersey.

Speaker 1 (38:16):
I got.

Speaker 3 (38:17):
I gotta give you Zach Wilson Dolphin jersey. I gotta listen.
Is it okay?

Speaker 1 (38:22):
A chat? Y'all? Let me know? I listen.

Speaker 3 (38:26):
Can I get us your door standing this jersey even
though I'm bangled by heart?

Speaker 1 (38:30):
Or is that? Is that? No? No? Yeah? I guess
you could. Yeah, sure you could. Understanding the circumstances. Yeah, yeah, here,
I'm curious. I'm creed.

Speaker 3 (38:40):
I'm gonna ask Bengal fans that see how they feel
about it. If they say no, I won't get one.
