1:01
are a hater. We had
1:03
a lot of NFL football action. We
1:06
gonna talk about my lions in a little while,
1:08
you know, allow me to get myself where I
1:11
need to be, you know, in the old ticker. It's been
1:13
a lot, but we'll talk about
1:15
the first game, the Ravens against the Chiefs.
1:18
As many of you know, I went to
1:20
watch that game at my buddy Nick's house and
1:22
I went to watch that game at my buddy's
1:24
Nick's house, quite honestly for y'all. If
1:26
I'm going to be honest, right? I
1:29
really did that for you guys. Like
1:31
I go to Nick's house often. Well, not as much in the
1:34
last couple of years, but I go and
1:36
I watch football, but also his daughter, she's
1:38
like 10 years old. Now we got a
1:40
report. We have a great time hanging out
1:42
with each other. But the problem is in
1:44
stressed out games, Nick can't even really allow
1:46
her to be around. I think cause he
1:48
don't want her to see him like that,
1:50
but the girl not deaf. So even though
1:52
she downstairs cooking dinner with her mom or
1:54
cooking lunch with her mom or whatever, she
1:56
hear her daddy, a maniac upstairs. My dad
1:58
is such a maniac upstairs. One of
2:00
my hobbies the the seller up from Philadelphia.
2:02

4:32
bottom amazon off as I say. they've served to
4:34
bed deep as looks looks. but that office. They.
4:37
Look silk. Any
4:39
didn't Little I nobody was good
4:41
know. And
4:43
I can tell you. Didn't. Do that.
4:46
A lot of chances to get
4:48
open. That apparently Tab Mcginn
4:50
left the playbook without running plays in
4:52
it, in the car and a wet
4:54
no time to get no by to
4:56
run out The or a beauty for.
4:59
All. The head was the pass
5:01
in place. That. Was this he
5:03
was doing that like it was set. Mobo
5:06
your my build a cup of tea on
5:08
the first tag. Mobo up a the dolphins
5:10
is what I'm already have One run and
5:12
play or be the forty not as a
5:14
ticketed say way or a hair was one
5:16
run and play You know what time was
5:18
a Gabi flag and I thank around. Am
5:21
too much Uk manages decided not at
5:23
all be go do is run past
5:25
place and as will make it so
5:27
loud and nobody seemed to be open
5:29
to Baltimore the to be Draven bet
5:31
there's Russian for more. Drop back back
5:33
there with brown the tip of brown
5:35
right. I'll head at all Twenty two.
5:37
Maybe it was some dues open a lot more. What?
5:39
See you know? It. Seem from
5:41
here though that the more likely scenario
5:43
was. Would nobody open.
5:47
Nat. This. Is the bay?
5:49
And this is where. There's
5:52
a certain irony to Lamar
5:55
Jackson performance. Go! What's.
5:57
You have been Lamar Jackson We
5:59
got in that okay new had
6:01
that game manager discussion. right?
6:03
Read some other like Gay Marriages
6:06
Again Changes. And. I
6:08
think all of us, even Lamar
6:10
Jackson critics would agree that he
6:12
falls under the category of the
6:14
game changer. right? By
6:16
this is a god as as I hate all my
6:18
back. We can go here to make this app okay.
6:21
In That game. He. Didn't
6:24
see my to do you didn't know. He.
6:26
Didn't seem like a mug in the office.
6:28
Coordinator was do with him. A lot of
6:30
favors. At that point.
6:33
You. Gotta say all my bad we go
6:35
go make this happen and that's when he
6:37
did not do like For all told the
6:39
people have a bottle a more as a
6:41
passer. If anybody who comes added his game
6:43
at least as far as officer who comes
6:45
out of his game it's all about what
6:47
the issue with is that he's it's a
6:49
good enough of that a good at a
6:51
passer. Oh no no no no I think
6:53
that you're missing the point. I think the
6:56
problem in this game was he was tried
6:58
to damn hard to be a pass at
7:00
some point. When you look around to see
7:02
what was gored on you just gotta. Be
7:04
to do to go do with bright my
7:06
find it sit for a while ago do
7:08
with it if you've gotta run and get
7:10
three or four yards every little toddler, whatever.
7:12
Okay cool, that's what you gotta do. what
7:14
you go, look at that box, score or
7:16
right? They. Weren't given the
7:18
border the run a base and outside as
7:21
a flower was it appeared that the most
7:23
dynamic received a thread that the Ravens head.
7:25
You know who it was all you know
7:27
what was it was Lamar Jackson. guess it
7:30
was he was loved by Jackson. The closes
7:32
acted as they get all he but the
7:34
do it is will apologize if caught his
7:37
own pace. That's. What a wall! That's.
7:39
What is that? Right as oath? I
7:41
have. What? I. Do feel like
7:43
much of what I've seen about the game and
7:46
people talking about the mods as and I do
7:48
think is gone too far like I don't think
7:50
he played warmly. I certainly don't think he played
7:52
well but I do not think that he played
7:54
poorly Like I don't think that that's a fair
7:56
characterization of make a play poorly to me as
7:58
I give you saying he plays. poorly if the
8:00
same person was under the same circumstances but
8:03
they could not run you wouldn't as being
8:05
be as inclined to say that they played
8:07
poorly but in the case of Lamar because
8:09
he had that other option he played confusing
8:11
to me more than it was that he
8:13
played poorly but he didn't play well cuz
8:16
in the end man we talked about it
8:18
dude that's the MVP and the idea behind
8:20
that at least to me is we got
8:22
a guy that when ain't nothing else working
8:25
he gonna do something it's
8:27
gonna be one thing it's gonna be another he
8:29
gonna do something and he didn't and it's not
8:31
look it's not like the Ravens
8:33
didn't have chances okay they had the chances
8:36
they fly was fumbled there at the end
8:38
they had the chance when Lamar threw that
8:41
pool interception right they
8:44
had chances to get this done the defense
8:46
held Patrick Mahomes to only 17 points
8:48
right it's hard to make the argument
8:50
that they did not do their job
8:52
okay you can even make the
8:54
argument if you were so inclined and this
8:57
is part of why I try to avoid
8:59
using certain terms right what term I try
9:01
to avoid using is when you get out
9:03
here and say somebody quote unquote did enough
9:05
to win okay I
9:07
mean I can make you an argument that Lamar
9:09
Jackson did enough to win I can say
9:11
this thing here this thing there whatever it
9:14
is I can say that about damn near
9:16
anybody cuz I didn't see people win under
9:18
all kinds of crazy circumstances I once saw
9:20
Tim Tebow win a game where he completed
9:22
one goddamn pass and that was enough to
9:24
win you know what I'm saying like I
9:26
could always lay out for you I can
9:28
say Lamar Jackson did enough to win if
9:30
this person did that that person did this
9:32
whatever it is then they would have been
9:34
cool I could say that but
9:37
the thing that is that a I could say that
9:39
it is the this is what you got to say
9:41
he may have done enough to win
9:44
but he didn't right like
9:47
no matter what you think that dude is not
9:49
the reason that the Ravens won the game because
9:51
the Ravens did not win the game the
9:53
criticism that I had with the way that
9:55
people talked about Josh Allen after that game
9:58
against Kansas City was all of it after
10:00
a loss was about how great he
10:02
was and a I thought he was
10:04
closer to being good than he was to great though
10:06
there were flash plays but in the end what we
10:09
not gonna do is treat losers like winners and I'm
10:11
saying to Josh Allen it's like a loser in the
10:13
core of his soul but he was a loser that
10:15
day we're not going to treat the loser like the
10:17
law okay
10:20
so anybody who came at me and said am
10:22
I gonna give the same energy to Lamar Jackson
10:24
I gave to Josh Allen you're damn right I'm
10:26
going to because I'm not gonna treat the loser
10:28
like the winner that dude that day was the
10:30
loser they lost ain't no acting
10:33
like they won in the end what
10:35
he got to look at himself and ask is
10:37
really basically two things number one why was I
10:39
out here looking so shook and tense right
10:42
he said after the game he wasn't frustrated he
10:44
was angry hey man ain't really no time for
10:46
that when you out there playing and you losing
10:48
right but you got to go figure that out
10:50
that's number one to me number two why
10:53
didn't you just do what you do you
10:56
know like like to me very
10:58
often it feels like with these dudes especially the ones
11:00
that they tell hey man you know but you got
11:02
to become a real pastor whatever it is you
11:05
ain't got to do it that way and if you want
11:07
proof that you don't have to do it that way don't
11:09
look at Josh Allen go
11:12
look at Josh Allen because that's the one good
11:14
thing about it for him I feel like Josh
11:16
Allen like Sean I don't know if I ever
11:18
told you this right somebody gonna get mad
11:20
at me for this but I'm gonna say it
11:22
anyway have I ever told you what I think
11:24
is like the greatest example and demonstration of white
11:26
privilege you have not I'm excited to hear this
11:29
hey man you play some music
11:31
white people can do whatever the hell they want to do
11:33
with their arms legs and feet it don't matter it
11:36
don't matter beat what beat I'm the
11:38
beat right now you gotta stay on
11:40
the beat what for I just want to be myself
11:43
why people get out there do whatever it is man
11:45
we did we just clap ball way to go just
11:47
give it a try right that's what Josh Allen all
11:49
it looks funny when I run or whatever it is
11:51
and they'd be telling people what you got to do
11:53
to be a real pastor I ain't got to do
11:55
that I'm the beat right there's
11:57
a real passer right here whatever it takes
12:00
I'm gonna do that exact same thing and so when Josh Allen
12:02
get back there and they give him the room to run He's
12:04
not thinking to himself or it's not said to himself
12:07
man. I gotta go. I gotta show these people I'm
12:09
a real passer it ain't nothing to that He gonna
12:11
show these dudes he's Josh Allen and he goes out
12:13
there and get it done And I tell you the
12:15
Ravens would have been much better off if that dude
12:17
went out there and shows them that he was Lamar
12:19
Jackson instead of trying so hard to
12:21
pen like to pick them apart from the pocket
12:24
and look and to be fair again I don't
12:26
know what it was looking like I don't know
12:28
if they had dudes that were just there waiting
12:31
on him to run or whatever I don't have
12:33
the exact bandage of that But I do know
12:35
this all that looking looking looking looking that wasn't
12:37
a game for that Right, like
12:39
once it was clear to doing it like that wasn't really
12:41
working That wasn't the game for
12:43
that you had to be the one to go
12:46
make it happen The scheme wouldn't go make it
12:48
happen them dudes wouldn't go make it happen You
12:50
was gonna have to be the one to make
12:52
it happen And what makes him special is he
12:54
to do that can make it happen and he
12:57
didn't make it happen. That's it That's
12:59
what it comes down to I don't think it
13:01
comes down to anything larger about can he ever
13:03
win a Super Bowl? I don't think that you
13:06
can also do what people do with Josh Allen
13:08
Well, like you know one day it's gonna happen
13:10
No, you can't say that this one of the
13:12
greatest regular season teams of all time and they
13:14
lost it ain't nothing guaranteed in this Right and
13:16
we thought it was guaranteed the damn merino would
13:18
be back after he win his second year Ain't
13:20
nothing guaranteed in this we ain't got a lie
13:22
and go in those directions in order to try
13:24
to make sense I don't what happened in that
13:26
game But what you can say is a dude
13:28
that seemed capable of a lot Only
13:31
seemed to do a little and he
13:34
gonna have to answer for that and he gonna
13:36
have to deal with that And then while he's dealing
13:38
with that you can ask why the world top monkey
13:40
forgot how to run the ball When
13:43
you get a chance you can get into that one too because
13:45
that was crazy Like that looked like the
13:47
time monkey from Tampa far more than the time monkey
13:49
that we saw a Georgia, right? I
13:52
don't know why he with Lamar Jackson. You thought
13:54
that that was the way to go I got
13:56
no idea right a whole lot of people gonna
13:58
have to figure out a lot But
14:00
I can tell you one thing they don't need
14:02
to bother trying to figure out is what to
14:04
do with Patrick Mahomes Because it just doesn't matter.
14:07
It doesn't matter. Sean I called that man Jordan
14:09
people get mad at me when I call that
14:11
man Jordan, I just don't know how you come
14:13
out of this and by the way That was
14:16
not like a top-notch statistical performance from Patrick Mahomes
14:18
That was a nickel-and-dime game from Patrick Mahomes and
14:20
sometimes it be like that and I just need
14:22
to know man How you telling me you've seen
14:24
something better than this? I remember I texted you
14:26
after the game ended and I was like he
14:29
really is jorted because like you said it was
14:31
Isn't the best performance but he got the wind
14:33
and it was just another Patrick Mahomes Ian performance
14:35
look man Well, he threw you remember that time
14:37
He threw the ball to feather stone early in
14:40
the year and feather stone didn't catch it and
14:42
he said yeah Well, I could have thrown it
14:44
a little bit shorter. So we had time to
14:46
get under it. You remember that? Yeah, and a
14:49
couple weeks ago He defended the refs or he
14:51
went against the refs rather than going against his
14:53
own receivers But that particular play is important Because
14:56
what he did when feather stone was open at
14:58
the end of that game was Take
15:00
a little bit off of it so that he could run
15:02
under it, right? Getting the touchdown wasn't
15:04
that important like if he catches his stride It's
15:06
a touchdown But what was a little bit more
15:08
important was him just catching the ball and he
15:11
took a little bit off of it So that
15:13
he could catch the ball because that's what he
15:15
needs but to be fair That is where he
15:17
is not Jordan or Kobe or any of them
15:19
dudes because Jordan still would have threw his ass
15:21
a heater Jordan would do
15:23
that thing so hard. Everybody got stuck in his
15:25
face mask, right? Like like Jordan's not accounted for
15:27
the fact that the other kids aren't as good
15:29
as him His brain don't work like that LeBron
15:32
a little bit of a different situation, right? Like
15:34
LeBron gets it. Hey, man, you gotta walk so
15:36
many of these other kids alone My home's walk
15:38
feather stone alone got him something that he could
15:41
do something with and by y'all it all went
15:43
down Like he's that
15:45
guy There's
15:47
no way around this now granted
15:49
again, I watched that game with
15:51
literally his biggest fan Okay, but
15:53
he's right bad. Um When
15:56
they played against Miami, he said they said
15:58
it was just because it was cold When they
16:00
played against Buffalo, you came out of the game talking
16:02
about Josh Allen. They just went into, and by the
16:04
way, the first road games in Patrick Mahomes career in
16:07
the playoffs and then they went up there in Buffalo
16:09
and Baltimore and they just looked
16:11
like the champs. They had the confidence of
16:13
the champs. There's Travis Kelsey throwing
16:16
Justin Tucker's ball out the
16:18
way because he wanted to practice kicking because
16:20
Mahomes was coming out there. Like they came
16:22
out there and they bullied them boys. You
16:24
don't think about that as a team, they're
16:26
bullish people. They went out there and they
16:28
bullied them boys. They did that.
16:31
They did that. And by the
16:33
way, did you notice by the way, and I've noticed
16:35
this a little bit over the years, but I talked
16:38
about it during the game. Hey Sean, Kansas City, they
16:40
got a little eye when they defense man. They
16:42
got there and a lot of people run out
16:44
there with two white dudes, they're linebacker. You know
16:46
what I'm saying? And like one of them extra
16:48
white, like he got one of them names that
16:50
I honestly, I don't know it to
16:53
do. Let's start with the K. Yeah. And
16:55
they're, you know, they're, they're secondary honestly proved
16:57
to be like the most elite part of
16:59
that defense and kind of
17:01
shocking that this is the best defense Pat Mahomes has
17:03
played with. And again, they're going through the Super Bowl.
17:05
It is, but I'm going to tell you this right
17:07
now. This is just for you guys to know, especially
17:10
in that back seven, like
17:12
football getting to be like basketball in the sense
17:14
where there used to be a time where this
17:16
wasn't the case, but now rest
17:18
assured, that white man earned
17:21
the right to be there. If he
17:23
is playing any of them running backward
17:25
positions, trust me, he
17:28
has hurt his stripes and bow the
17:30
player referencing just before we go, uh,
17:32
change George Carloff this he's Greek. Don't
17:34
nobody care what his name is. All
17:42
right, man. Uh, we got a couple of
17:44
levels and like, I gotta be honest with
17:46
you guys, as you know, as many of
17:49
you know, I'm a day one Detroit lions
17:51
fan day one. When was day one? I
17:54
remember it very well, but I can't tell you the exact
17:56
day. But anyway, I've been a day one
17:58
on this. I've been. And I
18:00
know that a lot of y'all probably think
18:03
it's a bit and I
18:05
understand that like when I was at Nick's house
18:07
It wasn't rating but I gotta tell you man
18:09
when the Lions was making a half it in
18:11
the first half And they was making those big
18:13
plays. I was I'm gonna
18:16
do the exact I don't know how it's gonna affect the
18:18
sound but I'm gonna do the exact one But you know
18:20
what I'm talking about Like when you be into a
18:22
game and you start leaning forward and somebody get it done
18:24
and you start clapping But your class is this one You
18:29
Know that one, you know that one you saw that look
18:31
on my face. You'd be like, yeah, there we go, baby
18:34
There we go. It's that class you not it's
18:36
not it's not so much about applause I don't
18:38
even know what it is, but he like it
18:40
has a very particular sound to it You know
18:43
what it is and I was there man. I
18:46
was there they was up there throwing them boys
18:48
around in the first half Give making them run
18:50
they was making it happen. They was making
18:52
it happen on defense Old Brock Purdy was out
18:55
there looking shook. Oh boy.
18:57
I was there man I mean
18:59
I was I started to see it right now.
19:01
I was like yo, is this happening? Is it
19:03
really going I'm starting to think about like what
19:05
I was gonna bring with me to the Super
19:08
Bowl They're like, you know my fandom. I need
19:10
to like make sure I ordered me a conference
19:12
championship shirt I was thinking like do I go
19:14
farther than that? Do I try to get me
19:16
like a Billy Sims throwback like a limb Barney
19:18
joint? Maybe some maybe that night train lane right,
19:21
like I was I was I was I was thinking about
19:24
all the things that I needed to do and then
19:28
thing happened To the
19:30
lions like I don't know if
19:32
it was one of those things were
19:35
like everybody drank out of the same
19:37
water container And so the virus was
19:39
already in it, right? And so then
19:41
everybody caught it I don't I don't
19:43
really know what it is But it
19:46
appeared that the entire
19:48
roster was suffering from
19:51
fol And fol
19:53
for those of you who did not go
19:55
to medical school is a
19:57
medical condition called full on lemon
20:00
booty the lemon booty washed over
20:03
that whole roster everywhere you win
20:05
booties was like it's
20:08
right there just the
20:10
lemon booty just it it it
20:13
took him down man it took them
20:16
down it really really did it really did like
20:18
they they've been working on a vaccine for it
20:20
for a very long time they haven't been able
20:22
to figure it out but it was just like
20:24
it was just full I was like it feels
20:26
like full offset lemon booty it was like they
20:28
had lemon booty and they was doing dead lifts
20:31
you know what I'm saying like them booties was
20:33
just all the way like just mash tight like
20:36
every single one of them I don't even
20:38
know how they was able to walk how
20:40
they like it's actually amazing they played as
20:42
well as they did right considering what it
20:45
was man and then on top of like
20:47
they had lemon booty and then it was
20:49
like in some ways the 49 it seemed like
20:51
they had horseshoe booty cuz they lucky asses was
20:53
just like them and that one ball hit the
20:55
dude from the lines in the head and then
20:57
to bounce up and then I you got it that's
21:00
that horseshoe booty when that happened right it's so
21:02
like when you got a lemon booty and they got
21:04
horseshoe booty it don't it don't so
21:06
much work you know I'm saying like it don't so
21:08
much go together and Dan Campbell went for it on
21:10
those fourth downs I got that I loved the way
21:12
the team seemed to respond to that they're like yo
21:15
we should have had it right um
21:17
the problem the thing with Dan Campbell and it
21:20
relates to him going for it on fourth down
21:22
and also when they ran that ball on third down
21:24
at the end I don't think in the end I
21:26
was gonna really matter but I understand the argument about
21:29
why you should have passed just in case and
21:32
the reason that he gonna run that on third down
21:34
is very simple same reason
21:37
he did that other thing you know going for those fourth
21:39
downs y'all out here thinking about
21:42
well you know well what if you don't get it
21:45
and then camp Dan Campbell is
21:47
not viewing those plays as we're
21:50
gonna try to convert fourth down he's
21:52
looking at it as we about to
21:55
convert this fourth down that was
21:57
it and on the first one had
21:59
to play Drop the pass, another, that F.O.
22:01
Well. Now that's the one question. I understand that
22:03
Dan Campbell is not a doctor like I am.
22:05
But that is the one question is that whether
22:08
or not he should have recognized the presence of
22:10
the F.O. Well, and if he had
22:12
recognized the presence of the F.O. Well, he should have
22:14
known maybe these cats weren't able to handle these passes
22:17
and these plays and these moments, right? Like that's the
22:19
one argument that you can make, man. But no, I
22:21
loved it, man. I loved it. But I'm not gonna,
22:23
Sean, I'm being dead serious here. Like I
22:26
felt it, man. I felt it. I
22:29
was just a, I was a
22:31
little, yeah, man, I kind of felt it. Did
22:33
you feel it? I kind of felt it. I kind of felt
22:35
it. I think everyone kind of felt it. Yeah, but I don't
22:38
know if they felt it like me, man. Like I was a
22:40
really, like, as it was fading away, I
22:42
really felt like a measure of
22:44
disappointment. I'm gonna talk a little
22:46
bit more about it a little later, but I am gonna say
22:48
this right fast. And that is, I asked
22:52
somebody on Twitter, say to me that
22:54
I brought my bad Atlanta Falcons luck
22:56
with me and that's what happened in
22:58
the second half of that game. And
23:00
I just wanted to say, if
23:03
you rule for the lions and
23:05
you would ever say that to me, you got
23:08
some nerve. You got some nerve.
23:10
Y'all ain't never get this far till I showed
23:12
up. What are you talking about? I'm the best
23:14
at it. You talk about all this Dan Campbell,
23:16
right? All this Brad Holmes, Miss Sheila, all these
23:19
new, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah. Y'all ain't really
23:21
start seeing no results till your boy got here,
23:23
right? Right? Say
23:25
what you want about the Falcons, but they've been to Super
23:27
Bowls. I think rather than
23:29
saying I brought bad luck, I might be
23:32
the luckiest thing that ever happened to y'all.
23:34
Now, if, if
23:36
for whatever reason, y'all's
23:38
Walter Payton man of the year got caught
23:41
solicited a prostitute the night before the game
23:43
and then got burnt in the game. Okay,
23:46
blame that on me. I'll take
23:48
that. I'll take that. I recognize that
23:50
falls on me, okay? But in
23:52
line with what I said last week, I don't
23:54
really wanna be out here talking too much about
23:56
the teams that did not win in the time
23:59
of the teams that... did win and
24:01
alright this is what we
24:03
got to talk about with the 49ers in this game.
24:06
They won this game for a very very simple reason.
24:09
Brock Purdy went out there and did it. That's
24:12
why they won that game. Again he had
24:14
a bit of a case of horseshoe booty,
24:16
he had some horseshoe booty in the first
24:18
half too. Like it could have been worse
24:20
and he gets by on some horseshoe booty
24:22
stuff quite often, quite often. But in the
24:24
end all that stuff I felt like I
24:26
was talking about with Lamar Jackson and you're
24:28
dropping back and there's nobody open but you
24:30
got to go out there and find a
24:32
way to make it happen. Brock Purdy did
24:34
that. He did that
24:36
and the question that you have about
24:39
a quarterback to me about whether a
24:41
team can win a Super Bowl with
24:43
a quarterback is when a game like
24:45
that comes up can that dude do
24:47
it? And so I feel confident that
24:50
Lamar Jackson can do it but
24:52
he hasn't. Alright I
24:55
wasn't sure if Brock Purdy could do it
24:58
and he did. Boom! It's
25:00
right there. Like all that stuff I've talked
25:03
about before on this show about how you
25:05
got to stop talking about Brock Purdy in
25:07
the context of being a game manager because
25:09
that game manager is a mentality
25:11
and he ain't got it. He absolutely believes
25:13
that the play got to be made he's
25:15
gonna be the one to go ahead and
25:17
make it. He does not have the fear
25:19
of you saying it's your fault that we
25:21
didn't get it done. You did
25:23
a little bit too much and
25:25
you couldn't make it happen. He's not afraid
25:28
of that being the end result. He's not
25:30
and that's huge and he went out there
25:32
and he got it done. Nobody
25:35
no matter what we said
25:38
nobody can take away
25:40
from that when it comes to him and
25:42
he deserves to me all the
25:44
credit in the world under that situation. Now I
25:46
don't necessarily know how that's going to help or
25:48
affect or whatever it is when they get to
25:50
the Super Bowl but I know for that game
25:53
he did
25:55
it and from here on out what we'll
25:57
have to say about him no matter what
25:59
we We don't necessarily know if he
26:01
will do it, but we can't say
26:04
that we don't know if he can.
26:06
We can't say that we don't know if he's got it
26:09
in him. He does. Like,
26:11
what was he, 14 for 17 in the second
26:13
half, Sean? I think that's what the number was.
26:15
Yeah, and his rushing numbers should have been what
26:17
Lamar's rushing numbers have been for the day. You
26:20
know, 48 yards on the ground, 9.6 average. Yeah,
26:23
that's why I say there's such an irony to
26:25
what happened with Lamar. Now, it's going to be
26:27
hard for Lamar Jackson to average 10 yards to
26:29
carry in a game, because quite honestly, they expecting
26:32
that from him, so they got safeguards in place.
26:34
Brock Purdy, I mean, he's still white. Anytime
26:36
the white dude starts running, I don't know what the hell they
26:39
got to do before people realize like, oh, damn, he's been about
26:41
15 yards. Oh, that's what he's doing. He's running. Sorry.
26:43
I didn't recognize it. Like,
26:46
I mean, people just slow on the uptake when
26:48
white dudes decide that they're going to get out there
26:50
and run. So it's going to be hard to get
26:53
Lamar Jackson out here at this point in his career,
26:55
getting like nine and a half to carry. But
26:57
what you saw, though, was a different sort of willingness
26:59
from Purdy and how important it
27:01
was in them getting out there and moving those
27:03
chains. Because we had talked about this. Nick pointed
27:05
this out to me before, but it was the
27:07
truth, man. The Shanahan teams had not been like
27:09
coming back from like five points. They couldn't get
27:11
it done. They came back in this game from
27:13
17. Now part of
27:16
it is I do believe that the Lions
27:18
were riding super high coming out of there
27:20
like early. They went, they got
27:22
a little out over their skis that I just
27:24
don't know if condition wise or anything else. They
27:26
couldn't maintain that same level of energy all
27:28
the way through the end of the game.
27:31
They just could not do that. Right. But
27:34
I just need everybody to know something. And this
27:36
is important. Okay. Everybody needs to.
27:39
Everybody needs to understand this and
27:41
get this this season foot alliance
27:44
for like the people
27:47
from Detroit and the day
27:49
ones like myself. Okay.
27:53
It was really dope to like look at something and
27:55
look at it. And I would be honest with you,
27:57
right? I've joked about this in large part. But I
27:59
do mean what I'm about to say like this is
28:02
a sincere thing for me I started joking about like
28:04
rooting for the Lions and all of this because I
28:06
wanted to have a team to root for like I
28:08
Looked up and realized I'd gone so much like you
28:10
know kicking it in this as a professional does that
28:13
I hadn't had a team to Root for and I
28:15
wanted to have a team to root for and I
28:17
was kind of feeling the Jets a little bit and
28:20
Boy, good thing. I didn't do that. Wow.
28:23
I decided to go and get down
28:25
with the Lions and you know I
28:27
ain't been out here reading every blog
28:29
and everything about Detroit, but I've been
28:32
sincerely every time I
28:34
watched them Wanted them to win
28:36
and feeling the level of investment in the
28:38
players They got the success they have and
28:41
everything else like I'm trying I was I've
28:43
been really trying to found a path toward
28:46
Healthy sports fandom and I have
28:48
like truly and legitimately enjoyed watching
28:50
our Lions get it done this
28:53
season and seeing the emotional Outpouring
28:55
that they had When
28:57
they won the first game and the emotional outpouring
28:59
that they had when they won that second game
29:01
and I sincerely hope therefore a lot Of y'all
29:03
no matter how it went with that game and
29:05
maybe they had the chance to win it or
29:07
whatever it else man They seem to got some
29:10
foundational here This ain't necessarily the last time or
29:12
whatever But I'll admit man like getting
29:14
like back immersed into what it is that
29:16
makes this whole sports thing fun that way
29:18
and with a team That was legitimately fun
29:20
and with a coach that's a go-hard. I
29:23
Enjoyed that this year man. Like I
29:25
did feel legitimate disappointment when I watched
29:27
the game go away I was gonna
29:29
be sincerely happy if they had won.
29:31
Yeah, how crazy this is I'll be
29:33
putting on for Detroit more than Vinnie
29:35
Goodwill does Think about
29:37
that Vinnie Goodwill how you know,
29:39
like like this just just how did I
29:42
make how'd I make you look? You know
29:44
what I'm saying? But anyway, I was there.
29:46
I was with it. I enjoyed it They
29:48
had a great season and so much
29:50
about the way we talk about sports is getting into what
29:52
it is that people could have done But didn't do or
29:55
whatever and I really do hope that like you can look
29:57
at a team like that Like we talked about this off
29:59
the air If it was a college team,
30:01
people are better at that, right? Because there's such
30:03
a range of outcomes. People are better at appreciating
30:05
what it was. But this team, this
30:07
team was a good team, right? And so good
30:10
for them, congratulations to them on
30:12
the season they had. And
30:16
I'm trying to figure out the proper way
30:18
to segue into this video. I'm just going
30:20
to say that Lions fans are handling this
30:23
in many different ways. But
30:26
in the end, well,
30:30
let's highlight our man. Is it
30:32
Jack Poppin' house? Yep, yep. Jack Poppin'
30:34
juice. Yeah, we lost. We
30:38
lost. I am tripping.
30:41
I am mad. We got next year. We,
30:43
we, what y'all are not going to do is act
30:45
like we just didn't go crazy this whole season. That's
30:47
what I'm saying. All of a sudden,
30:49
we have millions of fans today. I
30:52
was one of them. We blew a 17-point lead at half.
30:54
But we played the 49ers. I
30:56
broke my fucking glasses. But oh,
31:00
no. We just don't
31:02
clap it up for the Lions right now, man. That's right.
31:04
We did our thing. Clap it up. We did our thing.
31:06
Clap it up. We did our thing. Yes. We
31:08
did our thing. Yes. Fuck!
31:13

no, that took a pain. Shit! Shit!

a new year, which means it's time
32:28
for everyone's new year's resolutions. We

ourselves instead of just expanding on what we're

33:33
of the day. No need for the
33:36
social media feed. We got you. Now,
33:39
if you haven't heard. Hey,
33:41
Sean Wright Fast, John Solo in the chat said
33:43
Detroit is basically a most shitty Cleveland. And I'm
33:45
going to have to say this, right? I've been
33:48
to both places, but I haven't been to either
33:50
one for very long. But I tell you this,
33:52
when I was in Cleveland, I stayed in the
33:54
double tree that didn't have cookies and
33:56
I just, I
33:59
just feel like that's a relatively. detail to break up
34:01
where you start making such comparisons as you have
34:03
here. I just feel like we need to throw
34:05
that out there. There's a double treat and it
34:07
ain't because they ain't have cookies that day. Apparently
34:10
they ain't have cookies for a long time. For
34:12
a long time. Alright so you know anyway
34:15
Sean let's tell people about the larger world. Alright
34:17
our first story comes it's
34:19
about gummy vitamins. Hey I'm Jacob Stern
34:22
a staff writer at the Atlantic and
34:24
this week I wrote about gummy dietary
34:26
supplements. These things basically didn't exist
34:28
25 years ago and now it can
34:30
feel like they're everywhere. The gummy supplement
34:33
market has been going like crazy in recent years
34:35
and it's expected to double again by 2027. You
34:37
can get pretty much any supplement
34:40
imaginable to gummy form these days. There
34:42
are peach collagen rings and bamboo berry
34:45
probiotics and tropical zing gummy worms that
34:47
promise to put you in an upbeat
34:49
mood. And this can all
34:52
seem great. I mean who wouldn't rather eat a
34:54
peach ring and take a pill in the morning
34:56
but there are some downsides. For
34:58
one thing gummies are sugary
35:00
and gummy supplements are about as
35:02
sugary as sour patch kids are.
35:05
Not the end of the world but not the
35:07
healthiest things of eating every day either. For
35:10
another thing the fact that they look and
35:12
taste exactly like candy may increase the risk
35:15
of kids taking too many if they're not
35:17
safely stored. And while overdosing
35:19
on supplements is not dangerous in the
35:21
same kind of way that overdosing
35:24
on prescription medication is supplements
35:27
taking access. Some of them at least
35:29
can still be toxic. Maybe
35:32
the most serious issue with
35:34
gummy supplements is that they can
35:36
have wildly unreliable quantities of relevant
35:38
supplements in them. Researchers
35:41
who have studied this have found that
35:43
an individual gummy can sometimes have more
35:45
than three times the announced specified advertised
35:47
supplements in it. Because
35:49
of all this the doctors and researchers
35:51
I spoke to had a
35:54
simple piece of advice don't buy gummy
35:56
supplements. Alright so I just want to
35:58
throw this out here right? So
36:02
basically what they're saying here is the way
36:04
that people have been using these gummy supplements
36:07
is it's like taking medicine,
36:09
not really medicine but you know what I mean,
36:12
it's taking medicine but it tastes like candy. That's
36:14
what we're talking about right, y'all? Yeah, in theory.
36:17
It's a healthier option. Well, my man just said it ain't
36:19
a healthier option. It sounds like it's just a pain in
36:21
your eye. Right. I think people have
36:23
thought that taking gummy vitamins led to getting their
36:25
multivitamins in a healthy way but obviously not. No,
36:27
that's what I'm asking. They think they were getting
36:29
their multivitamins in a healthy way or they think
36:31
they were getting them in a tasty way because
36:33
it seems like they thought they were getting them
36:35
in a tasty way and if
36:38
you were like trying to get your
36:40
vitamins but you needed it to be
36:42
tasty, you ain't never heard of the
36:44
Flintstones, you childish motherfucker, go to the
36:46
store and get some Flintstone vitamins if
36:48
that's what it is that you did.
36:51
Like, what? Grow up. I
36:53
mean, I just remember I was hearing this and I was just like,
36:55
wow, you people just need to grow
36:57
up. That's all I can
36:59
think is y'all need to grow
37:02
up. That's it. Grow
37:04
up. This comment from the regulator on YouTube
37:07
says, medicine should never taste good and that's
37:09
what I've always believed. I mean, grow up.
37:12
That's all I can grow up. Our next,
37:15
if you had heard, submission comes from
37:17
the Business Insider and it's about the gender
37:19
gap in Gen Z. Something strange is happening
37:21
between Gen Z men and women. Over the
37:23
past decade, poll after poll has found that
37:26
young people are growing more and more divided
37:28
by gender on a host of political
37:30
issues. Since 2014, women between the ages of 18 and
37:32
29 have steadily become more liberal each year
37:37
while young men have not. Today,
37:39
female Gen Zers are more likely than
37:42
their male counterparts to vote, they
37:44
care more about the political issues and
37:46
participate in social movements and protests. While
37:49
the gender gap is an enduring feature of American politics,
37:52
at no time in the past quarter century has
37:54
there been such a rapid divergence between the views
37:56
of young men and young women. Part
37:59
of the growing divide is being caused by
38:01
feelings of insecurity and displacement. Both
38:04
genders are feeling precarious by their place in
38:06
American society, and it's causing them to
38:08
drift further apart. While
38:10
the causes are complex, the upshot is clear.
38:13
There appears to be a growing eagerness
38:15
among both young men and women to
38:17
blame the other for their freedoms. If
38:20
Gen Z men and women can't agree on politics, it's going
38:22
to be harder for them to find a partner. But
38:25
if anything, that understates the problem, a society
38:27
in which men and women see their interests
38:29
as a revically opposed is not one that
38:31
can long endure. Yeah, and he's got a
38:34
point here. It was the
38:36
idea of gender
38:38
politics becoming antagonistic. That
38:41
does not foretell, I think that's the
38:43
word. It
38:48
ain't good. How about that? However,
38:50
I can totally see how
38:52
that's just going to be the case. Like in part,
38:54
I was hearing what he was saying and I was
38:56
thinking to myself, wow, you guys
38:58
are raising some sorry dudes. Like
39:01
I felt like that's kind of what I was hearing in the
39:03
course of this. It's like, oh, women are more likely to vote
39:05
than men don't. I'm like, oh boy, y'all out here raising another
39:07
generation of bums. But where I
39:09
think I had a measure of disagreement
39:11
with what the writer said was the
39:14
idea that women's politics and men's politics
39:16
are now becoming divergent. And I don't
39:18
know if they're becoming divergent as much
39:20
as women are now, for lack of
39:23
a better term, allowed
39:25
more than ever to have their own
39:27
individual political views. Like it's
39:29
not the idea that you're gonna vote for whatever
39:31
your man voted for, right? Like let's not forget,
39:33
it wasn't that long ago that a woman wasn't
39:36
allowed to have a checking account. Now I understand
39:38
that's not directly tied to what a woman's political
39:40
views were, but that tells you a lot about
39:42
the idea of like what
39:44
a woman's personal agency happened to be. And I
39:46
do think that you as the younger generation that
39:49
is more in touch with what their agency is
39:51
and are gonna wind up pushing there more and
39:53
more. And then you wind up with these dudes
39:55
that's all just afraid that they losing something and
39:57
so they then go and... pushback
40:00
right but in a world where like marriage
40:02
is not treated as the same guarantee as
40:04
it was it's not like okay these women
40:06
gonna get more but then I'm gonna marry
40:08
a woman that got more and boom now
40:10
we got more I don't think
40:12
people are seeing it that way people are seeing
40:14
this as like individual turf wars and
40:16
yeah yeah it doesn't matter who's right or
40:19
wrong in this it
40:21
isn't very encouraging certainly
40:24
not bow and our last uh
40:26
if you haven't heard submission if
40:28
you haven't heard the Los Angeles Times announced Tuesday
40:30
that it was laying off at least 115 people
40:34
more than 20 percent of the
40:36
newsroom in one of the largest
40:38
workforce reductions in the history of
40:40
the 142 year old institution
40:43
according to the paper's owner Dr. Patrick
40:45
Shoon. Soon she young the cuts were
40:47
necessary because the paper could no longer
40:49
lose 30 million to
40:51
40 million a year without making
40:53
progress toward building higher readership without
40:55
bringing advertising and subscriptions to sustain
40:58
the organization. Young journalists
41:00
of color were disproportionately affected by the
41:02
layoffs the LA Times
41:04
Guild said in a statement with
41:06
many black Asian American and Latino
41:08
staffers losing their jobs despite Soon
41:10
Shiong's family's commitment to diversity
41:13
in 2020 the paper still hasn't
41:15
really truly affected the region and
41:18
according to a staffer who tweeted
41:20
about the layoffs the LA Times
41:22
laid us off in an HR
41:24
Zoom webinar with chat disabled no
41:26
Q&A and no chance to ask
41:28
questions and this was in
41:30
a week where Business Insider had also had about
41:33
six percent layoffs Sports Illustrated recently laid
41:35
off nearly their entire newsroom and I
41:37
was curious for you Bo what you
41:39
think about the state of journalism right
41:41
now in this moment. I mean it's
41:44
not new like it's been tenuous
41:46
and the issue is they can't
41:48
exactly figure out it the newspaper thing
41:51
is a little bit different when they talk about they
41:53
can't find readership like that that I think is a
41:55
little bit different but overall there's
41:58
a demand for content they just ain't really doing a
42:00
great job of figuring out how to make
42:02
money off of it. Now with Sports Illustrated, this
42:04
was always the plan. Like this is your
42:06
classic private equity. We bought it
42:08
to tear it down, right? And then we're
42:10
going to sell it for parts. I sent
42:12
a text message to my old friend Pablo,
42:14
who was complaining about what happened at Sports
42:17
Illustrated and I said to him, it sounds
42:19
a lot like the process, doesn't it? It's
42:21
all the same idea, right? The
42:23
rules as they are in place
42:26
incentivize you doing something that is
42:28
utterly and totally soulless, right?
42:30
Now in the case of the process, my man Pablo said,
42:32
hey, as long as the rules are there, people
42:36
are going to do stuff like this, but
42:38
he used to work for Sports Illustrated, so
42:40
he felt the same sadness as everybody else
42:43
when they did the exact same thing, right?
42:45
But that's how this goes with those sorts of
42:48
companies. Every time somebody talks about private equity
42:50
getting involved in college sports, I ask you,
42:52
when's the last time private equity made something
42:54
better and nobody has an answer for that?
42:56
That is positive, okay? Now what happened with
42:58
the LA Times, and this is the part
43:00
that jumps off the page to me about
43:02
that is, a billionaire buying
43:04
a newspaper is not terribly different
43:06
than a billionaire buying a professional
43:09
sports franchise, which is to say,
43:11
what makes you think they have any idea what
43:13
they're doing? They get in,
43:15
it seems like a good idea, and then they
43:17
get there and they're like, yo, this is really,
43:19
really hard. At least with the sports team, especially
43:21
like a football team, you're pretty much guaranteed to
43:24
make money, but to very least guaranteed to have
43:26
equity growth. That was going on with the newspapers.
43:28
So the guy comes in and I mean, I
43:30
bet he thought he knew what was gonna happen.
43:32
He thought he could make it happen, like Bezos
43:34
made it happen, or like to a degree over
43:36
there with the Post. But nah, man, running
43:39
a newspaper in this day and
43:41
age is really, really, really hard,
43:43
and the fall of newspapers
43:45
is really, really, really bad.
43:48
Like this is disturbing, and I
43:51
know that people think it's a little overstated when
43:53
the Washington Post did the whole democracy dies in
43:56
darkness thing, but it is true. And,
44:00
Having a paper like the LA Times declined
44:02
a bit. It's hard to hold people to
44:04
account when you can't put them on Front
44:07
Street and newspaper is by definition the Front
44:09
Street. Again
44:15
shout out to the right time audience who
44:18
submitted a ton of
44:20
stories on when you squared up
44:22
with your pops. Let's get this
44:24
first one from Lorenzo. Oh my,
44:26
this is Lorenzo Brown from New
44:28
York calling to tell you
44:31
about that time that I tried to square
44:33
up with my pops. Well,
44:36
I was about 18 years
44:38
old, had just returned from Marine
44:41
Corps boot camp in Parris Island,
44:43
South Carolina. Now mind you, this
44:45
was back in 1979 when
44:49
the method of creating
44:52
killing machines as they called
44:54
us back then was
44:57
that the drill instructors
44:59
were allowed to physically
45:01
abuse and manipulate the
45:04
Marines back then. Well,
45:07
I got back from boot camp and I
45:09
thought that I was a hard charging leatherneck
45:12
killing machine ready to go to war
45:14
for the US of A and I
45:16
wanted to try out my new skills
45:18
on my dad and I told my
45:20
dad I bet you I can take
45:22
you. My dad said I tell
45:25
you what I'm going to get down on
45:27
all fours and you get me into whatever
45:29
bowl or choke hole or whatever situation you
45:31
want to and we'll figure out
45:33
what you got. Well, I got
45:36
my father in what I
45:38
thought was the best position
45:40
I could ever get him in. I was
45:42
a full Nelson and he said to me,
45:44
are you ready? I said yes. Bomani,
45:47
the next thing that happened was
45:49
I just heard a rumbling
45:52
and a stumbling and a thudding
45:55
as though I was listening
45:57
to it in third person, not even
45:59
realizing. that rumbling and that
46:01
tumbling was me being flipped and flopped and
46:04
flown through the air. And when
46:06
I came to myself, my father was
46:08
sitting on my chest with his hands
46:10
around my neck yelling. And
46:13
I didn't understand the words that were coming
46:15
out of his mouth because I was just
46:17
coming out of a stupor. And
46:20
I heard my mother standing over his shoulder
46:22
saying, Daddy, stop, Daddy, Daddy, stop. You're going
46:25
to kill him. You're going to kill him.
46:27
And I heard my dad saying, don't
46:29
you ever, as long as you don't, don't you
46:32
ever try me. I will kill
46:34
you. Don't you ever. But,
46:36
Marnie, I am 62 years old. My
46:39
dad is 85, I
46:42
believe it is at this point.
46:44
And until this day, I will
46:46
never, ever, ever try that
46:48
man as long as I live. That's
46:50
my story. And it just
46:52
pressured my mind as to what was yesterday.
46:55
Peace out. What
46:57
I love about this is clearly that man
46:59
didn't even need to be so bad about
47:02
it because he had the situation under control.
47:04
But he was so furious. He
47:07
was willing to go through like he gave
47:09
you the like he spotted you to points,
47:11
right? And you would think that that
47:13
would you would not think that that may he would still
47:15
be so bad about this game. He was I gave Sean.
47:17
He was so bad. I love that. Like he was like
47:19
once I got out of the stupor, I was like, I
47:21
think your dad was the one in the stupor. He
47:24
said at once he could understand his dad, but
47:26
he could understand his mom and then he could
47:28
understand his dad. Oh, man, that's
47:31
rough. That's rough. Who we got next?
47:33
All right, here's one from Cory from
47:35
Chicago. What's up, Beau? This is Cory
47:37
from Chicago. So first
47:39
time I tried to square up with my pops, I didn't
47:41
even try to square up with him. My
47:44
pops wasn't living with me at the time. And
47:46
it was me and my mama. And I was
47:48
going at him with my mama, going
47:50
back and forth. And I'm cussing, cussing, cussing.
47:53
And she's like, yeah, just keep on going at it. I'm
47:55
just going in at it, not knowing that
47:57
my pops was on his way. down
48:00
that door, come in. This ain't
48:02
a whooping. I had to be about 13 probably
48:04
at the time. This ain't whooping time.
48:06
This is straight hand. Pops come in, just put
48:08
the flams on me man. I mean, just fizzed,
48:11
put the ass, got my ass
48:13
whooped by my pops. I knew then he wouldn't
48:15
have been messed with, right? So that
48:17
was the first time I got stomped
48:20
out by my pops. So second
48:22
time, I have
48:24
to be about, I think
48:27
I was probably 18, 19 years
48:29
old. I played college football, played
48:31
NAIA ball, that's not the point. Playing college football, I got
48:33
some weight on me. Now mind you, Bo, I'm 6'2", about
48:36
285, 290. My pops, 6'4",
48:38
300. Big dude. He's born in the
48:40
50s, so you know, that 300. That's
48:42
all in his hands and feet. So
48:45
me and him getting toured over something, and
48:48
I'm knowing now he's older. My pops like 35
48:50
years older than me. He's older than me, him
48:52
going at it, he started going on his little crazy rant and
48:54
stuff. So I'm like, oh, I can get him now. So me
48:57
and him immediately start throwing hands. And Bo, gotta
48:59
say, I beat him. I beat him. We
49:02
going back and forth, I get him on his ass. My mama
49:04
pulled me up off of him, trying to get
49:06
on up out the room. I'm getting up out the room. I'm taking a
49:08
fight over with. Little did I know,
49:10
fight wasn't over with. Pops come out with
49:12
a pistol. I take off with it. Now,
49:16
was my pops going to shoot me? Probably not. But
49:19
was I willing to try? Hell no.
49:22
To this day, my pops are almost 70 years old.
49:24
I will never try that man for that. Another
49:27
show, Bo. Keep doing what you do. Peace. Hey
49:29
man, pops had to let you know, like you may
49:31
have won the fight, but there
49:34
was, he was not ready to move out of his own
49:36
house. The whole
49:38
dynamic was not going to change, right?
49:40
Like you won that fight. Okay, but
49:42
he had to reassert the dynamic and
49:45
the dynamic was reassertive. That's
49:50
buddy. All right, Bo. Our last one is
49:52
a kind of reverse of this situation. Hey
49:54
Bo. So I know I called in years
49:57
ago with the time I tried to try
49:59
my pops. But I'm going
50:01
to hit you with the reverse side of it.
50:03
At the time, my son tried to try me.
50:06
So he had disrespected his mama. He
50:08
had gotten in trouble at school, got
50:11
suspended. So he talking with his
50:13
mama. He had caught his mama out of there. So
50:16
she just said, you know what I'm saying, when your daddy get
50:18
here, she don't, he don't hear about this.
50:21
So he was like, okay, you know, so
50:23
whatever. All right. So I done been at
50:26
work all day in the sun because I
50:28
work outside. So
50:30
I got, I got to the house and
50:32
she told me what happened. So I
50:35
bust his door open and say,
50:37
what the hell happened? And he trying to explain
50:39
the story to me and
50:42
you know what I'm saying? And he like
50:44
grabbed ahold of me for some reason. So
50:47
when he did it, I just punched that
50:49
motherfucker in the gut. He
50:51
threw up all over the place. So
50:54
I told him to pick this stuff up, clean
50:56
all that shit up. And
50:59
I said, you didn't disrespect your mama.
51:02
You disrespect my wife. You
51:04
ever do that again, I'll fucking kill you.
51:06
I don't give you care if you my
51:08
son or not. But
51:11
anyway, bro, that's the story. Oh,
51:13
that's the story. Love the show. Keep throwing
51:15
you out of pain. Yeah, I'll keep
51:18
it up. Yeah, nah, he, he,
51:20
that's the distinction that the
51:22
young boy doesn't understand under those circumstances is,
51:24
it's not about your mama at that point.
51:26
It's about his wife. Now that year, you
51:28
know, his daddy was on the way fade.
51:30
That's the boys that I told you about
51:32
my whole boy who said that he grew
51:35
up in the base. He got
51:37
into it with his mom and he rolled out,
51:39
staying out late, passed when he was supposed to.
51:41
And then he walked back in the house. He said his
51:43
mom was sitting on the couch. His mom was
51:45
sitting there and he looked at her. She was just reading something. He
51:47
looked at her and just went like this. Threw
51:50
his hand up, just kept on walking past.
51:52
Said he walked in that room, turned
51:55
on them lights and it
51:58
pops there. His
52:00
pops lived in LA, Shaw. That
52:02
is insane and terrifying. His pops lived in
52:04
LA. He said his pops heard what was
52:07
going on. His pops jumped
52:09
on the road. He walked in there. His
52:11
pops was all three of the following at
52:13
the same time. A
52:15
bodybuilder, a Black Panther, and
52:17
now he a preacher. He said his pops
52:20
got him by the neck and put him
52:22
on the wall and his feet was dagglin'.
52:25
Dagglin'. He thought he had
52:28
it. He really did. Probably drove 200 miles down the
52:30
highway to get there in time too, you know? Oh,
52:32
no, no, no. He must have been like, I felt
52:34
like his pops had been waiting his whole life for
52:36
this moment. Like, I feel like you dance be
52:38
waiting. I'ma just have that one chance. I'ma only have
52:41
to do it one time. I'ma only get to do
52:43
it one time, but I'ma do it one
52:45
time. Whoo! But hey,
