Man, man, man, what a game. Argentina down. Oh, two. Hey. They were down to 79th minute down, two goals, and then boy, Messi provided to Christian romero in the 79th minutes ago. In four minutes later, the goat himself, Lionel Messi, and then Messi. Hey, Joe Ocho, I don't. I was like, man, you mean to tell me Egypt is going to knock off the reigning defending champs with many consider the greatest player to ever play? And is that what Egypt's about to do? Let's just say, man, y' all know I ain't going out like that, man. I'm him. I've been him. And boom, boom, boom, and they win the game. Oh, you know what happened?
Host
I. I don't know what happened. Obviously.
Preparation H Announcer
It.
Host
It was two. It was two zero. I said, I tweeted out that it's not looking good. The refs can't help. The refs can't help Argentina too much longer. And then as soon as I tweeted that Egypt went on the score. It's 20 now. So at this point, I'm like, okay, Egypt be cruising. Yeah, but there's There's a. There's a saying 20 is the worst lead to have in soccer. Why they say it.
Uncle Murder
Why is it?
Host
I have no idea, Uncle Joe. I have no idea. Lo and behold, here we go. Messy magic. Messy magic. Romero gets one, Enzo gets one, Messi gets one. And before you, before you know it, it's three, two. And obviously Egypt head coach is complaining. He's saying the refs, he's not happy about, you know, some of, some of, some of the calls in the game. I think Egypt should have had a third goal. If anything, the game should have been 3:3. There must have been a foul somewhere. I mean, what. Listen, Argentina looked dead in the water until it mattered most. And Messi is one of the best, Uncle Joe. In those moments when you need it most, he always come through. Now, some people will say, oh, the ref cheated. This happened. But those goals, they still had to go in, in the back of the net. That shot by Messi, that was very, very, very difficult. That header by Enzo, very, very difficult. Obviously not for them because they do it all the time, but, man, it was a good game. And, and no, messy. Messy is the real deal. Message is the real deal. Again, I understand his greatness. A lot of people, they were on my head on Twitter today after the, you know, after, after the game. And, and he's a lot of people's goat. I love him to death. I love what he's done for the game. But I. I don't know what to say. I don't know what else to say about Messi that already hasn't been said here to go.
Uncle Murder
You haven't said that. Everybody else been saying. You haven't said. You say you don't notice to be saying you out of your, out of your partials, parts your lips and say messy to go check. I fought as long as I could. I fought as long as I could. I can't. I can't fight it any longer.
Host
Yeah, okay, my bad.
Taco Bell Announcer
Hey, hey.
Tab Ramos
He, he.
Uncle Murder
Hey. He might he one of them, for damn sure.
Host
Absolutely, Absolutely. Absolutely. He's one of them. And listen, it all comes down to preference. Now, when you argue about the goat debate, obviously one of the things that you and Joe are really good at doing is you understand the resume and the accolades and what every player has done to support your notion on why, yes, who player said player is goat. Now, when I. When I say it, I'm saying I like it based on this, this individual's style of preference that I can actually. I can actually relate To. I can relate to that. I can't relate to mess in any type of way because I'm not small, I'm not short. I mean, I can't do any of that. But Cristiano, I can relate to the flare, the flash, the speed, playing on the wing. If I did happen to play football, I mean, play soccer, I would be something like that with a. With a little tad bit of craziness to it. I mean, that's what I can relate to. That's why I prefer him as my goat as opposed to other people. And they bring up all the accolades. I understand. I know. I know. You can't go wrong just for me. I prefer Cristiano for those that like Messi. I love you.
Tremphya Announcer
He's.
T-Mobile Announcer
He's. He's.
Host
He's one of the greatest of all time. But I just.
Uncle Murder
Well, it's not like a lot of other sports. Bigs don't ever get big. I mean, nobody really ever consider a big in basketball to go. Kareem and Will, Bill Russell, they don't even get no consideration. And you talk about one one 11 championships. One got 30, 000 points and the other got six MVPs. Six. Six. Six championships and 10 appearances. And they don't really. So when you look at 111 championships, Bill Russell, well, who the hell was he playing against? They want eight straight. Whoever. Well, at that time, that was in the beginning. That was in the 60s. They won eight of the 10 championship in the 60s.
Host
Okay, okay. Okay.
Uncle Murder
Okay. Yeah. Hey, hey. Oh, that's that. That's that Celtic pride, that Celtic history.
Taco Bell Announcer
Yeah.
Uncle Murder
He leading the charge in that. What the hell? Yeah. During the match, Hassan made the X with his arms to report a case of racism. However, it was ignored by the ref. Egypt after. After the defeat of Argentina at the World cup, said, we were wrong by the referee. Today, everyone saw it. After 2 0, everything went and worked against us. I guess that's the signal for someone on the field. I guess someone on the field says something racist or use, you know, racist language or something, I don't know. That's something you can clarify.
Host
I don't know. I don't know. Obviously, in this World cup, most of the time when players want to say something insulting to another player, I'm not sure if it's coming from the stands. It was referring to a player saying something, right?
Uncle Murder
I. I don't know. We held hands up. Now Argentina, I don't know. I don't know. And. And there was a situation where somebody in the stand Said something to our speed.
Host
I saw that. I saw that.
Uncle Murder
I don't know why people are surprised. The Argentine. Do y' all not know history? What do y' all thought the Nazis and the fascists went. When the fall. When the, when. When Nazism fell in Germany? Where do you think they go? What did Eichmann and Joseph Mingley, the Angel of Death, where do you think they went to? Where do you think all those soldiers and all the upper ranks, where they went to? They fled to Argentina, put on, gave him sanctuary. Man, you know what, Joe? I hate doing?
Host
How you be knowing all this stuff, huh?
Uncle Murder
That's what I'm saying. Hey, you teaching me something here.
Host
Keep going. I mean, hey, I'm in history class.
Uncle Murder
Yes, yes. Even though, Even though I know y' all know the story about Evita Ava Perrone, who was the highest record. She was married.
Host
I know who that is.
Uncle Murder
Yeah, but the song, Don't Cry for Me, Argentina, that'll have anything to do. But even though. Even though he. He got overthrown, got exiled, came back, won election again, ended up having a heart attack. But y' all gotta understand the history of this. Nobody's surprised. Or if you know history, nobody's surprised to Argentina. Now, I'm not saying somebody on the. But when he said when that. Said that speed, I wasn't surprised. I might have been one of the least surprised people given the history of Argentina and how everybody that was under Nazi Germany, a lot of the high ranking officials, they got sanctuary in Argentina. So I was. I wasn't surprised by that. Now, I don't know when you throw up the ex. Line chat, y' all can educate me on that. What does that mean? When somebody says something on the field? And it's hard for me to believe that somebody can say something in the stands and then the officials on the field, but I guess they could. They tried to clean that up, Ocho, because you used to hear chance and stuff like that. And we just saw a situation where the Paraguay, the senator of Paraguay, and then refuse. And then now she threatened and refused
Host
to apologize at that. Now what they did do this World cup, so players can't throw insults most of the time. What they like to do, Uncle Joe, they. They like to cover their mouth and talk to get the insults off. But at this World cup, if you cover your mouth, you get an automatic red card. You get an automatic, automatic red car. So no one's been able to cover their mouth. If you gonna say anything, if you're gonna insult somebody, you gotta say it. And obviously, they don't want you covering your mouth because now they can read your lips.
Uncle Murder
Hey, hey, hey. One thing about this World cup, man, playing soccer, boy, you gotta. You gotta be tough out there, don't you, Uncle? Oh, hey, them boys jump down your. Hey, them boys jump down your throat in a minute.
Tony Ayo
Talk.
Uncle Murder
You know what I mean?
Tony Ayo
Talking.
Uncle Murder
Hey, I said, hey, man, look, every time somebody jump up and get in somebody's face, I'm like. And, you know, a lot of times guys, these guys speak multiple languages. Yeah. I think you might be saying something slick, that they don't understand exactly what you're saying. So you think you try to get one off on them, they like, hold on. What. What you say? Yeah, yeah, yeah. But this was. This was the unbelievable game. I. I just knew Argentina. I said, man, Argentina, y' all done, bro. It ain't no way. And I'm looking, I'm like, damn, Egypt, about to pull off. And look, if you made it this far, obviously you are a very good team. It's not an accident that you're to the round of 16. That's not an accident. But to be in there are the reigning champs who's played unbelievable thus far, and they've got the best player, many consider the best player in the world, or one of the two or three. Now we know what he represents all time, but he still might be one of the handful, two or three best players that's currently in this tournament, and we've got them on the ropes. And. And you know what the coach is saying. I can just picture him saying it with the old Denny Green. Argentina is who we thought they were, and we let them off the hook. If you want to crowd them, you crown their ass.
Host
But they are off.
Uncle Murder
They work, and we let them off.
Host
You know what's funny too, Uncle Joe, is if you look at Argentina, people in the chat, I'm sure you could agree with me, even if you like Messi, even if you do like Argentina, is their path to the round of 16 was fairly easy. Obviously, the group stage play wasn't hard at all. It really wasn't difficult. They didn't have to play anybody. No disrespect to those teams that they did have to play. And obviously Cape Verde had a great showing, obviously, against Argentina. But I'm saying this was their first real test. This was their first real test of playing a top club, a club that. That can perform well and play well with them in all three phases of the game. And it looked to me I was kind of I'm not gonna say I was nervous, but I also, I also thought they had in the bag.
Uncle Murder
I thought, oh, you was nervous. You had to be nervous because I'm
Host
not going for Argentina. But I just. The messy magic showed up at some point. I mean, and obviously collectively as a team, they did well to come back and get, and get in that game, but it was a joy. That was the most exciting game, one of the most exciting games of the tournament. Easily.
Uncle Murder
Well, here's the thing though, Joe. Let's just say for this, let's just say he wasn't rooting for Argentina because it would, it would help his case a more if Ronaldo's out, right? Messi goes out. Right? Because the last thing that he want to see happen, if this man get another golden boot and another. That's okay because it's going to get harder and harder to make that argument. Even if you, you like.
Host
Not. Not really. Because even though Messi won the World cup last year and Cristiano hadn't won one, I never use stats and accolades when I talk about the conversation who to go this. Everyone else does and not, not understanding. My choice and preference of player is based on skill in technique and, and stuff of that magnitude.
Uncle Murder
Well then how. Yeah, if he don't got all them, he gonna go.
Host
If I'm, if, if. Let's just say I can't go out there and, and mimic and try to emulate Messi in real life. I can try and emulate and, and, and, and replicate what Crano does. I can like, can I, can I.
Uncle Murder
You should be able to be with Messi because you could take off running and not everybody. Run everybody to the ball and put
Host
it in the back of the. Not as easy as you think, man. I'm, I'm.
Uncle Murder
I know it's not easy, but with your speed, all I do give you a great lead you take up.
Host
Hey, for one listen, when Messi dribble, the ball is stuck at his foot. Joe. It's like, it's like. You know how you got a yo yo and a yo yo being on.
Uncle Murder
Yeah, I know. I know what you mean. I know what you mean.
Host
Pushing on him, tugging.
Uncle Murder
Yeah, yeah. Messy, messy, messy. Gotta handle like me. See, you gotta handle like. Let's see who you gotta handle like. You gotta handle like, like DeAndre Aiden or somebody. You ain't, you know, saying your hand. Yo yo handle yo. I'm saying. Cause you're handling the ball ain't what you do.
Host
How you feel?
Uncle Murder
Yeah, yeah. Little hand.
Host
Okay.
Uncle Murder
Yeah, that would. They call it. They call him small hand.
Tab Ramos
Okay.
Host
Yeah, okay, okay.
Uncle Murder
But they say. They say messy is small. They say the messy hands are only seven and a half inches. Do you know how small that is? That's a large lady. Do you understand how small 7 inches is for a man to have hands that small? Do you. Do people realize that?
Host
Yeah.
Uncle Murder
That's why he don't have to use them. Yeah, yeah. I don't know what. I don't know what he could play other than soccer with hands that small. He. Hey, he out there with a glove. He out there with. I don't know what type of glove he gonna have. He'll have a kid's glove for real, playing in the major.
Host
Hey, it's all good, man, but that
Uncle Murder
joke is phenomenal, man.
T-Mobile Announcer
Yeah.
Uncle Murder
And just when you think he's done, just when you think you can never count that out. He caught that ball.
Host
Nice little bali right out there, man. And then he put it the only place you can put it to get in the goal to go in.
Uncle Murder
He kicked that thing so fast and so hard, Ocho. I'm like, ain't no way this man got to be praying. This, this a praying man. Ain't no way.
Host
You know, you can see how much that game into him after that game. He was crying.
Uncle Murder
Yeah, hey, hey, he, he was crying because he know. He know the opportunity that they have now and what they had to overcome to get that here. Yeah, man, come on, man. They really supposed to been down three nothing.
Host
Hey, I ain't gonna say nothing. I, I. I ain't gonna say nothing.
Uncle Murder
Yeah, they really pulled. Hey, hey, that second, that second goal by Egypt after they took that one. Yeah, he came back. That was a f. You go like Butterhead done took his shirt off on that second. When they took it back, he came right back. I saw. Yeah, they finished. Argentina finna go down even. Brady said, hey, man, this might top 28 3. Man being down two goals in the 79.
Host
That's about.
Uncle Murder
That's Nah, nah, it topped that. It don't talk. Brady.
Host
It's equivalent in a sense, because. Because. Because it's the World Cup. So it's equivalent because Brady then was
Uncle Murder
down, Brady then was down. I think Brady then was down 28:3 with 306. Three minutes. A little. Almost a little over three minutes left in the third quarter. So they had about 18 minutes. So when you look at it, they basically had to overcome. They had to overcome what they did. And Stu. So they had 11 minutes left to make it 90 and stoppage time. So they had about four or five minutes. So they basically had 14, 15 minutes to overcome a two goal deficit. Outside of the spurs in this finals, I ain't seen a bigger debacle then. I'm serious. Than what the Falcons had against the Patriots. Yeah, I mean, you got to go back. Well, just a couple of what you call them. The Colts. No, Minnesota, who had to leave with 31 nothing over the Colts.
Host
Wait, 31 nothing?
Uncle Murder
30. Yeah. 30 something and nothing. Hold on. That was this year. That was two years ago. Didn't Minnesota come back and beat Somebody?
Host
Not 31. Huh?
Uncle Murder
Yeah, yeah, absolutely. Yes. Chad, who was that? Who had that lead like that? Was that. Did Indy beat Minnesota or Minnesota beat Indy?
Host
That must have been just a regular season game.
Uncle Murder
Colts blew 33. 0. Yes. Damn. 33 0. Buffalo came back in the playoffs against, against the. Houston. Houston, the, the Oilers 33.
Host
Zero.
Uncle Murder
Yes. Yes. We talked about it. That's how I remember. We talked about it. Yes, but it's, and I tell people it's easier to play from behind and come from behind as opposed to get a lead and try to hold on to it because you get conservative. Because what happens is, is that you like, man, why you stop throwing it? Yeah, why you stop doing it? Because I'm trying, I'm trying to bleed the clock. I don't want to stop the clock and I don't want to give them any. I don't want to give them any scooping scores because every time I drop back, I subject my quarterback to get strip sacked. I subject him to get a ball tip, caring, and it gets picked. So I'm trying to do everything I possibly can to keep us out of that situation. So you start to play extra cautious, I get to get extra aggressive because I'm already down. Don't give a damn to lose. Yep, absolutely. You got everything to lose. You're supposed to win. Like I said, Ocho, that's why you said 33 nothing. 33 nothing. You're supposed to win the game. I don't give a damn what happens.
Tony Ayo
Damn.
Uncle Murder
Not in today's game. Not in today's game, fellas. Not the way it's played. It's just like basketball. It's easy to come back. Now what a three point shot and everybody shoot it so well. You got them. You only had like a handful of guys right now you, you got a team. Two, two or three guys can get hot and make five, six in a row. And what was a, what was a 20 point lead? Is down to six or eight inside of two minutes. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But this was. This was crazy. While the broadcasting in the state of each Argentina passed two games, the FIFA World Cup ICFI has faced racial taunts from South America country fans. Now FIFA has reportedly opened investigation into fans behavior. The most recent incident came days after an Argentina fan seated above Speed staged a performing monkey like pantomime towards him while others shouted insult.

What she said to Mbappe. I'm saying, does this surprise you on Ocho though? No, not Argentina. Even in Belgium, people don't understand the, the story of Belgium. And people talk about these, these horrible dictators. And I hate assignment where he was work. If you're a dictator, you were bad. So I hate assigning where he was worse than him. And we mentioned dictators, we mentioned Stalin and we mentioned. And we mentioned who's that? Ed Amin. And we mentioned Pinochet and we mentioned Pole Pot. I don't know if people know about King Leopold of Belgium and what he did. Go study to go look that up. When they talk about all these others. Go look up what King Leopold did in Belgium to those. Oh my God. And then you're going to start to say, well, hello. Why don't we talk about him like we talk about some of these others? Oh my goodness. That's why I wanted him to be Belgium more than anything. Now look, I'm not fitting to sit here and try to put us right pedestal because we've had our own right here in America. Okay? So Chad, I don't want you to think that I would ever. I'm just saying there are things that have happened in society that we try to brush over. And sometimes even if you try to brush over, it doesn't go away. Nope. Man, this, I wrote a whole lot. I wrote a quote down today bad that Einstein said. And man, this thing spoke to me like. I don't know if anything has ever kind of spoke to me. Kind of like this, like, hold on, let me find this quote. Oh, he says whoever runs with a lie at some point will eventually trip over the truth. Nothing remains hidden forever. Eventually, no matter what you scrub away. No matter what they do with the textbooks, no matter what they do, no matter what try the story they try to tell. Nothing remains hidden forever. People will do their homework, they'll do their research and they'll find out. But I'm not surprised. When they said Argentina, I was like, okay, no surprise.
Host
I mean, I'm not Especially. Especially in soccer. You know, racism has always been prevalent. Depending on the league that you play in, players have had to deal with it. There was an incident, obviously, with Vinnie, when. Vinnie. When they were. When Real Madrid playing Benfica, you know, there was an incident. And just. Just over the years, it's always been issues with racing in general, and it's always been a part of sports. You know, can you get rid of it? Sometimes they ban. They ban fans when. When they're able to catch who the fans are. But it'll always be there. It'll always be there.
Uncle Murder
It's as American as apple pie.
Tab Ramos
Yep.
Host
I gotta write that down.
Uncle Murder
This is American as apple pie. I mean, something. Some things are just inherently in the game. I mean, I. What I read that before, you know, whites wouldn't fight blacks because they said they didn't deserve a chance at the championship. They wouldn't fight them. And then think about it. They had to pass legislation to get blacks to be even in the league. You remember, there wasn't no blacks in baseball. There wasn't no backs in football. There wasn't no blacks. The first black. The first. This What? Jackie Robinson, 1947. Man. They've been playing baseball since the damn 1800s. Late 1800s. It took damn near 100 years. Oh, yeah. There were no blacks in football.
Host
Hey, hey, give him the history on how long.
Uncle Murder
Hey, man, you know what I hate
Kohler Ambassador
now?
Uncle Murder
They gonna say you. You bring your politics. I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
Host
Politics is the part of sports. Tell them how long until they get a black quarterback out there.
Uncle Murder
Oh, man. Well, I. If I'm not mistaken, I think Marlon Briscoe was the first black to start a game. And he was in the Broncos, I think, in 1968. Now, you had Shaq Harris for the Rams. You had Marlon Briscoe. You had Joe Gilliam. Yeah. Jefferson Street Joe. So we had some. But it wasn't until Doug did what he did that they really, really felt. Because unless you win the big prize, Ocho, they say, oh, yeah, you won a game or two, but can you win the ultimate prize in which how you're judged, and that's the Super Bowl. And once Doug did that, it like, okay, maybe they can. Let me think about. Go back and.
T-Mobile Announcer
And.
Uncle Murder
And I think what I saw a thing with Hank Aaron was doing a story about the hate mail that he was getting about. He was about to break Babe Ruth's record. Yeah, it was bad, man. Well, it was so bad, Joe. It was. Well, people don't even know, but they want us. But they see. But see, what they do is they say, well, you had a two term black president, so racism had to be gone. See, they'll take an isolated incident. They'll take a situation like Joe or myself or Ocho, someone that's made it. See, y' all made it. Everybody can make it. Come on now. Come on now.
Host
Crazy.
Uncle Murder
You got to realize, I mean, hey, you get. You didn't have both. I mean, supposedly we had rights, but it took the Voting rights acts in 1965.
Tony Ayo
Yeah.
Uncle Murder
The Fair Housing Act. It had so many. I mean, you had. It's in the Constitution, what you're supposed to be able to do. And we still had to go fight for it. People died. March, the Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma when they, the boycott, the bus boycott. The same thing in Greensburg City is in the Constitution. We supposed to be able to vote. We spread the right to vote and we still got to die for it. So I'm not surprised. But I don't want people to think it's just Europe. Hell, over your phone, you see it on social media. Yeah, somebody constantly used to him. I saw a guy, think, a guy, he got. I think he got 3, 10, 35 years in jail. He ended up punching a man because he kept calling his kids the N word. And he said he had a history of that. Yeah. So I, I don't want people to think it's just Argentina or it's just Belgium or it's Europe. Good old, good old America. We, we got our fair share right here.
Kohler Ambassador
Absolutely.
Host
Yeah, absolutely.
Uncle Murder
We got our fair share right here too. So I'm. I'm not surprised. So hopefully you, like you said, ocho, it's not leaving, it's not going nowhere. Because, hey, as that also said something also he said something very interesting, and I know this to be true. He said, watch out what people say to you when they're angry. He said they've been dying to tell you that. What? Watch how people talk to you when they get angry. Ocho, they've been dying to tell you this.
Host
Okay, so. Okay. Cambodia really meant that. Okay, okay.
Tab Ramos
Okay.
Tremphya Announcer
Yeah.
Uncle Murder
Yeah, baby.
Tab Ramos
Okay.
Uncle Murder
Yeah. Remember, Remember how I said, ocho, people get. And people use that as a. See, alcohol breaks down your inhibitions. See, you won't do anything drunk. You hadn't at least thought about sober.
Taco Bell Announcer
Damn.
Uncle Murder
Because your mind won't let you go there. See, alcohol breaks down the inhibition, the fear that you had of maybe doing that. And then what do they say? Man, I was drunk. Yeah, you thought about that. Why you were sober.
Host
Now, I got a question. Now, I like.
Uncle Murder
Out of the mouth speaks the heart. That's what the Bible teaches us.
Tab Ramos
I like that.
Host
I like. Now give me this one now. Now, you know, you got people that sleep well, you got some people that. That. That. That talk and they sleep. So, yes, last night I was sleeping and I kept hearing something, and Cambodia was. She was talking in the sleep. So obviously wouldn't the truth be that. That would also be the truth. Whatever you say in your sleep.
Uncle Murder
Well, what was she saying? That's a sub. That's a subconscious.
Host
It's like you ugly.
Uncle Murder
That's an involuntary response. Huh? Go ahead, Ocho. Joe, what'd she say? What'd she say? Oh, Joe. Oh, she probably said that she was probably wide awake. That's different. But I mean, people use and people use. I was angry.
Host
Yeah. That's how they really feel.
Uncle Murder
Always kids angry people who generally tell you the truth. Yep. Because they'll suppress a lot of things and then speak on it and be. Look, and. But I was like, huh. But I'm not surprised by this. I mean, I. I wish. I mean, this is. If Dr. King was still alive, he'd be over 100 years of age. He'd still be disappointed.
Host
Yeah, it was. It was a good fight. The message and what he was trying to get across was awesome. A lot of people died for that. A lot of people still fight for that this day, but with great understanding that we got a long way to go. And even though you. Even though we wanted to end, it's something that is highly unlikely because there's so many different people that will never.
Uncle Murder
Because you have to look at society with. How was it founded? How was America founded?
Host
Take your time.
Uncle Murder
Y' all know what they did. Y' all know what the people that was already here, what they did, not only did they kill him and steal their land, they gave him blankets that was infected with smallpox. So when they went on the Trail of Tears, they was dying along the way so they can steal more of their land. Come on. I don't see y' all gonna. Come on, man.
Taco Bell Announcer
Come on.
Uncle Murder
I don't want to get outside sponsorship taken. I don't want. I don't want to do it. Come on, man. Come on. Y' all know how America was founded. Chat. No. So let. Think about it. Think about all those countries that got invaded and they stole their value with their artwork. The Nazis, when they took the artwork, when they. In Austria and all these countries, what did they do? They made Them give it back. But you come take these people land, and you rob these black men that were sharecroppers and purchased this land and you took it from them. And when they say, give it back, you said no. But you know what, Chad? I. I don't say it enough. I don't say it enough. Y' all go see our chat.
Host
We.
Uncle Murder
I try to get us. I try to get us a sponsorship. And I don't know if this helping our call, but chat, y' all know I'm telling the truth. And anything that y' all disagree with me with, go read. They know it. They know this. It belong to them. Cause normally you take something. If you take something. Normally, if you take something, you steal something. Ocho. They find out, what do they do, they come give it back to the rightful owner, no questions asked. How can you purchase something that you didn't? They already lived here. They already had it. You can't purchase something that's not for sale. Man, I bought the Statue of Liberty. It ain't for sale. I brought the Brooklyn Bridge. It ain't for sale. So how the hell you buy something that wasn't for sale? You took it and then you put them on a trip. And look where they put them at. Little small pockets of land. Arizona, and a whole lot growing in Arizona, Oklahoma. Y' all see what they did? They used to be. Used to be odd up and down the South Shawnee, Chicktaw, the Lumbo Lumbee, up and down. Where they at now? They still got the Seminoles. They still, you know, hey, Florida State Seminole. They're proud. They are proud group. Some of them, the Apache. Some of them still won't want their name. Some of them are upset that the NFL removed that from the. The commander. The commander is now what it used to be. Some of them are upset about that, but they know. That's why it's really hard for me to talk about other countries when I know we've been one of the biggest pur. Bills. Violence of systemic racism. The biggest purveyor. What do you think we learned it from? Violence is learned, taught. Oh, so that's how you get it. That's why you have to be careful. If you're a child and had violence perpetuated against you, you'll have kids if you're not careful. What will you do? You do to your kids what were done to you. Oh, so that's how you can get that. So I can get me something. Okay. Okay. See that? It's a cycle, I believe. Let's go. Let's go, man. Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, man. Make me think about something, man. It made me think, damn, I ain't learned nothing in history class. I don't know none of this you talking about. I was like, All right, all I will say this. And yeah, I'm gonna. I'm gonna pat HBCU on the black on the back. There's no way I'm as informed and as knowledgeable as I am. Had I gone to a pwi.
Host
The curriculum is completely different. Completely different.
Uncle Murder
They wanted. They. They want to make sure that their best. Shannon, you gonna be something. We want you to be our best representation. Argentina will not face Switzerland in the quarterfinals. They defeated Colombia in the defensive master class. Match ended. Couldn't get it solved in stoppage. Couldn't get it sign get it settled in extra time. Switzerland won on PKS 4, 3.
Host
Yeah, Ocho, it was a good.
Uncle Murder
This was a very good game. Hey, I thought Columbia had it right, right before half. I mean, he got off a hollister. That goalkeeper. That goalkeeper from Switzerland.
Host
He was.
Uncle Murder
Hey, it's been some good goalkeeping throughout this whole World Cup.
Host
Yeah, man, absolutely. Columbia had a few chances too, in open play. Hunk, you know, I can't remember. I can't remember number 21 name for Columbia. He had. He had a shot there at the right towards the end of the game and he skied it. He. Scott, he curved it too much. That could have. That could have won the game for them before it even went the extra time. Outside of that really good game, both teams, obviously, they had. They had their opportunities on goal go. The goalies played extremely, extremely, extremely well on both sides. Obviously, it came down to pks. I. I don't like PKS because you don't know. It can go either way. A lot of people, I think a lot of players, it makes them uncomfortable to have to kick PKs as well as you can tell by some of them that are missing and, and not confident. You just telling their body language when. When they get up there. So, I mean, listen, Switzerland's really, really good. So when they play Argentina, it's going to be a really good game. Really, really good game. So I'm. I'm excited, man.
Uncle Murder
That dude from Switzerland, he kicked the ball so far today. I say, because I could have did
Tab Ramos
that
Uncle Murder
wasn't even close. And he was like, lord, please let us win this game. Please let us win this game. Oh, my goodness. And I think the thing is the Colombian goal kicker, he's like, you know, What? They've been going this way the whole game. Let me. And he gets wrong. He gets wrong. Cause he almost got his hand. Got his hand on it on the first one. He almost got his. He got his hand on it, but the guy put so much on it, it still got past him. Yeah, but he. He like, oh, I was right there. And the Switzerland guy, he. He had two of them and went right up, right up under. So he. He was on it the whole. The whole game. He was. Oh, man, he was phenomenal.
Host
Nice. Now we. We ain't got no soccer tomorrow.
Uncle Murder
No soccer tomorrow.
Host
That's the one thing I don't like. When it get to. When they get to the round, you know, round of eight, man. Now you gotta wait. It was so exciting.
Uncle Murder
What, Thursday? And Friday.
Host
And Friday. But I mean, what the hell?

Uncle Murder
Belgium, the game that. Oof, let me get mad all over again. Completely demoralizing loss. Belgium has six shots and one goal in the first 10 minutes of the game. Malik Tillman scored in the 31st minute. The title game 1:1. But 61 minute later, Charles K. Tilara. K. Tilara scored the second goal of the game. So we score in a minute later. They done took the lead again. Ocho. Joe. Yeah, the matt freeze. I don't know what he was thinking. Ocho, I need you. I, I need you to help me understand what he was thinking on this situation. Belgian got the final goal in the third minute. It'll stop his time. Ocho. Four to one. And this is what I said and I say this and I believe this. In sports, when you get beat really bad, they do you a favor because we have started to think that we were really close. Joe, we're not oo. We're not close. We're not close. So Belgium did us a favor to let us know, guys, we had our hopes way, way too high. Way too high. And I got involved and I still, hey, I still, I'm, I'm, I'm waiting on my damn Balagun jersey to come in. But we're not. We're not there. We're not there.
Host
Hey, and Joe, we got outclass. When I say outclass, we got outclass in every sense of the word. The gap. And I think one people, obviously I have my soccer people that in the chat that are probably watching the gap between the top soccer nation, US and the US Is so far apart. They're, they're, they're technically better. I think they're a little bit more skilled. And it showed like the mistakes that some of the US Players were making where they couldn't even make simple pass in Joe. Simple passes right there in front of you.
Uncle Murder
What about clear. What about clear the ball?
Host
They make a Little League mistakes, Uncle Joe.
Tab Ramos
Little League.
Host
The basic fundamentals that you learn when you 4, 5 years old, that you're supposed to master by the time you get to, you know, on the world stage, that level, it was bad, man.
Uncle Murder
I agree with you. It's definitely levels to this, and we just not on that damn level, Uncle Ocho. And listen, when I'm looking at it, man, we can't win no one on ones. Hell, we barely can even get lateral passes. I'm like, damn. It's like we playing more backwards than forward. You feel what I'm saying? So when. So when I'm watching, I'm like, damn, man, we can't. We can't get no rhythm, bro. And look, you right. Y' all right. Belgium saved us asshole from Spain. Hell, we were gonna play Spain,
Host
man.
Uncle Murder
Please.
Host
You want it? You want it? Everybody was going backwards. And I'm gonna use basketball analogy. Let's say the Knicks are playing, right? You pass the ball to Jalen Brunson, and they pick up 94ft. You know what I'm trying to say?
Uncle Murder
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Host
Pressing the whole time. And we not comfortable playing out the goddamn back. Not only are we not comfortable playing out the goddamn back, they messing up the passes. So everybody looks sloppy. The USA team for the first time. And you know, it's my fault, too, because I was praising them every week we came on here because they look so good in every game they played that. What's the first thing I said? I've never seen the USA team look so comfortable on the ball. I've never seen our players play like this with that kind of confidence. They move the ball really well. All of a sudden, we play a real team. God damn. We go right back to. We go right back to.
Uncle Murder
Listen, listen. Them last two goals, they just. They just discuss me. I. I mean, I. I'm like, come on, man, you can't let nobody. Uncle. You can't let nobody come knock on your. On your door, on your front porch. Hey, man, come on here and catch this fade, homie. You don't do nothing. Come on, bro. Nah, he open the door and slap you. You for real? Oh, you want to fight? What you mean, do I want to fight? That's what I'm saying. Hey, hey. I mean, bro. Hey, bro, look, ballistic. You own the U.S. team, bro. You own the U.S. you think he was hurt? That what you put on tape? This. This World Cup?
Host
You think he was hurt, huh?
Uncle Murder
Sit down. Because All I saw was Pulisic on the back. Yep. I don't know what he was. Yeah. But he didn't play well. They couldn't clear the ball. They couldn't control no damn bro. And then they look at, they looking at like, hey, oh my goodness.
Host
I think until a lot of people and what I don't like a lot of people. I, I, he, I, he, I hear a lot of people keep saying this in this discourse, in this dialogue on Twitter and on Instagram. If our best athletes played soccer and they started mentioning all the NBA players, all the NFL players, that really the infrastructure in which we have here. If all our best athletes did play and trained here in the United States, we'd still be levels behind. We'll still be left behind even if we started from four or five years old because we don't have the infrastructure in the academies that they do.
Uncle Murder
Yeah, yeah. You'd have to divert money that you put towards football to where you put basketball, what you put towards. You'd have to divert that to soccer like they do. They don't have, they don't have all of that.
Host
No.
Uncle Murder
How many, how many Argentinian baseball players they got, how many Belgian baseball players they got, how many Swiss baseball players they got?
Host
Yeah. Everybody keeps saying, oh, we're so fast, we're so tall, we're the fastest. And, and people don't understand it. Had nothing. Speed is, is, is, is, is an asset. Being fast, that's a good thing in soccer. But everybody ain't fast.
Uncle Murder
Yeah.
Host
The technical ability to be able to play with the ball at your feet is more important in your IQ and understanding of the game. Being able to see, being able to see the field is, is much more important than just being fast. That's just, that's just half the damn battle.
Uncle Murder
Yeah, but we see a lot ojo if that's the case, all the, the fastest men, the fastest hundred meter men, why ain't on the football field if that's all it was required. We've seen a lot of guys come out there and try that, that ran track and they take their ass right back to the track.
Host
Yeah, I don't, people don't cut it.
Uncle Murder
Dig the a. Go back and look when Ronaldo, Neil ma, he ran that shallow cross and he didn't know it was man or zone and he, and, and he was looking at Joe and Joe said, oh, you looking at me? Were you telling me? You telling me? It's man, look at it. John Capelle tried it. Jeff Dimps tried it. It's been. It's not a whole lot of guys. You need. You need to be able. If you speed is great to have, but if you can't control, ain't gonna do you.
Host
It's different. It's different.
Uncle Murder
But like you said, oo, that's not. I mean, guys like, they grew up. Soccer has always been their big thing in those country. Just like basketball and football and baseball has been our big thing here.
Tab Ramos
Yeah.
Uncle Murder
Now, you know, you see all. All of a sudden, some of these guys, you look at Serbia, you see they get basketball. Cause they put more emphasis on it since. Hello, since the dream team in 92, they're like, oh, I could. I could probably do that. Yeah, yeah, yeah, okay. I could do that. You look at, you look at Giannis, it's like, hold on, I can do that. You know, there ain't a whole lot of. They want to. Want that physicality to come with that football field. Yeah. So that's a whole. That's a whole different animal there now. Hey, they don't care how fast you are, boy. Look here. Eventually they'll hit me up. Yes, sir. They'll run you into something, man. Belgium beat the brakes off us, man. I'm so disappointed. Me and my sister, man, my sister come. My sister couldn't even hardly talk.
Host
You know how. You know how I knew? And I didn't get a chance to share this because I can't write it. I didn't want to write it on. On Twitter and have that long ass speech. But I hear a lot of people saying, oh, our best players, if they played. If they played soccer, we dominate the World Cup. And I just made one statement and told them, probably not. Probably not. Even if it did, there's no guarantee even if we did start from 4 or 5 years old, that it would still translate. Think about how many Brazilians there are, right? How many Brazilians play soccer in general. But there, there's every. Every few years, there's only one. There's only one Neymar, there's only one Ronaldinho, there's only one Ronaldo. So of all the Brazilians that's been playing, you know, with that infrastructure and ecosystem that they have out there playing with flair and, and sort of like street ball. Still, not that many have been. Not that many have come along. Not that many come along. I remember.
Uncle Murder
But that's all they got though, Ocho. They ain't playing basketball, they're not playing baseball, they're not playing football, they're not playing. They're not a Lot of. So I mean, that's, I mean, think about it. When you, if, if you said, okay, you can only play baseball and there are smattering of guys that play football or smattering of guys that play basketball, well, you will get a lot of like the Dominicans, like the Venezuelans, like the caraco. Yeah. Kirasa, I think Andrew Jones from Curacao. So. Yes, so, yes. But when you got millions of guys playing football, millions of guys playing basketball, millions of guys playing baseball, now what you think you're gonna get, you go get a dabbling of this, dabbling of that, a dabbling of this. As opposed to all your focus is on this. The Brazilians, the infrastructure is what, hey,
Host
every, you have some, you have some that are good, then you have great ones. So just because we all play doesn't mean we all gonna be great. Because we're great at football, we're great at basketball. It might not translate. It's completely different, you know. You know, it was eye opening to me and John, I'm share this real quick and for people in the chat was that, I mean, I'm sure those that follow me on Twitter have always seen the pictures that I, I send or I post with, with Messi and over the years, back when Messi was at Barcelona when he first debuted, when, when Ronald, when Ronaldinho and Samuel Eta were there, and obviously there's pictures of me and Jose Mourinho, who's now the head coach, backer, he's back at Real Madrid for a second stint. Right. I think I forgot what year I think it was. 2000. 2007. 2007. I can't remember what year it was. I went down to Real Madrid in the off season.
Uncle Murder
But damn, you just said 2007.
Host
No, I'm trying to remember the year when Maria was there.
Uncle Murder
2007 is a year, okay?
Host
Hey, come on. I'm trying to make sure it's the right year. But anyway, to make them, to make a long story short, Maria was there. I went to, I went to see Cristiano in, in the team and I asked if I could practice with them because it was a. They didn't play till. They didn't play till Saturday and I got there on the Thursday, so they let me put on the orange reserve jersey. Yeah, I was part of the reserves. Now they don't play big field, they play the smaller fields. Mind you, football season just ending up so I'm like, I'm in shape, you
Uncle Murder
know, you feel fresh, so you feel good.
Host
In my mind My ego.
Uncle Murder
Yeah.
Host
Being kind of arrogant and cocky, man, I'm gonna fly about all these dudes. And my skill and technique wasn't as good, but I just knew because I'm fast as hell, I'd be able to get by. Joe though, they embarrassed me for about 30 minutes straight.
Uncle Murder
I mean.
Host
No, did. No, no. I'm not trying to be funny. That's why when I look at. I'm hearing the discourse about our best athletes. My year, I'm still in my prime. I'm in my prime and I'm playing with the reserves and it's a small field, so it's a, it's a shorter distance for me to be running. I should be able to do it. They made me look stupid. I was out there like a chicken with my head cut off trying to catch the ball. I couldn't even see the ball at that, at that level, dog. Everything is precise, on point, on pricing, and nobody, nobody made mistakes. And dude, it was, it was embarrassing for me. It was humbling. But I also understood there's levels. Now this is, this is real Madrid.
Commercial Announcer
I mean, obviously.
Host
Yeah, I mean, we talk about one of the best club, if not the best club in the world, especially during that time. Dude, it was, it was, it was eye opening.
Uncle Murder
There's levels to pros. You. I don't know how many people have ever seen a tennis match, but go watch this match up close. Yes, I did an exhibition in Baltimore. Pete Sanfords and Audrey Agassi and to watch Sanford's hit that ball. Now Sanford was, was a huge server. Not, you know, now we had those big guys and back then everybody served in Bali. Yeah, you hit the ball, run to the net. It was these quick points. Now everybody play baseline to baseline. You know, that was before John Isner and Karlovic and you know, we had Ivan Niecevich and we had some crack check. We had some big service, but now the guy, they can serve, but they don't. They don't. They play baseline. Everybody stand back and, and wait for you to make a mistake. These guys, you know, you had Stefan Edberg and you had those Boris Beckers. You had guys like, they hit the ball and they go to the net crowd and make you make, you make a great pass. But when you see people that they do this for at the highest level, it gives you an appreciation. You like, I be damn. Yeah. When you watch a pro hit a golf ball, that ball is different than when somebody, you know. Oh yeah, I go down there, me and my buddies play on the weekend. Different you go to an NBA game and you watch the guy. Talk about, man, that guy bum. He don't never get in the game and watch him shoot it.
Host
Never, never miss.
Uncle Murder
Man, I told you. I watched Chad. Chad hit like, 17 threes in a row from one spot. You watch these guys. I'm talking about pros. That. And you look at him like, bro, how you not in the game? And then that just goes to show you the guy that is in the game, just how good he is.
Preparation H Announcer
Yeah.
Uncle Murder
Because these guys are really good. But when you see Djokovic and you see Nadal and you see Federal, you see all these guys. Now you got Senator and Alcaraz. You see all these guys when you're like, well, damn

Uncle Murder
You really, really get an appreciation to watch a pro. Watch them and them at their craft, man. I watched Serena, we. I saw Serena Williams, and she was. The semifinals. That's when the semifinals used to be played at night. And she was playing the guy she married, David Lee. What's her name? She's Danish, man. Serena. Serena Williams was hitting the ball. It sounded like somebody hitting the base room. Wozniaki, that's who. Yes, the Great Dane. I said, oh, my goodness. I mean, she was. Hey, the serve. And then she was cranking that forehand. That girl got some power, don't you, man? I feel. I bet. I feel bad. I ain't gonna lie, Joe. I felt bad. She got some power, don't you, man?
Commercial Announcer
What?
Uncle Murder
Yeah, look, I saw Serena when she was in a prime. I'm talking about when she was at. Physically at a peak. Yeah. Lord, have the caps on her shoulders, her arms, her legs. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah, man.

Episode Theme & Overview
In this lively World Cup special, host Shannon Sharpe (NFL legend) is joined by co-hosts Chad "Ochocinco" Johnson (former NFL star, soccer enthusiast) and Joe Johnson (NBA All-Star) to break down the day’s dramatic World Cup matches. The trio delivers an unfiltered analysis of Argentina’s stunning comeback against Egypt, the troubling racist incidents involving fans and streamer iShowSpeed, Switzerland’s tight victory over Colombia, and Belgium’s dominant win over the USA. The conversation weaves together expert sports commentary, personal anecdotes, and a powerful exploration of sport, racism, and the deep differences in footballing cultures.

The episode is candid, unscripted, and rich with honest banter, expert opinions, and authentic emotion. There’s plenty of humor, humility (especially around Ochocinco’s soccer story), and sharp history lessons, but also serious, incisive commentary on racism in and out of sport.
Summary Takeaway:
This Nightcap Hour is a must-listen for any sports fan wanting the real story behind World Cup shocks, the Messi-Ronaldo debate, racism’s ugly persistence in football, and why being a physical specimen or top athlete in one sport doesn’t mean you can hang with world-class footballers. Shannon, Ocho, and Joe keep it unfiltered, real, and insightful.
