DraftKings Representative
How you doing, bro?
Nicole Dean
I'm good.
DraftKings Representative
Super bowl champ.
Clorox Representative
Let me go first, man. You always go first, man. Listen, go ahead. I want to know as someone, you know, obviously I felt I was okay in the game of football. But I ain't never won nothing. I ain't gonna lie to you. Listen, I never won a national championship, you know, in college. I've never won a Super Bowl. I want to know what it feels like. I'm sure it was probably a drive, a childhood dream, obviously, to make it to the NFL, you know, but the national championship and to win the super bowl in such a short amount of time, bro. What that feel like? Tell me what it feel like. Because I don't know.
Nicole Dean
I finna say it's surreal in a sense, because it's like, damn. It's like it's something that you kind of work towards all the time. But then like, you. You sometimes you be thinking like, them losses gonna make you hungry and make you go harder. But them wins, them wins, that's. It gonna drive you differently. Like getting there, getting to the Super Bowl. You win that, you celebrate with your guys, and then it's like, yeah, it's like, you wanna get back. You wanna get back. So of course. But no, it's definitely surreal feeling. It's a blessing for sure.
DraftKings Representative
Yeah. Cole, man, I know what you're talking about. I know what you're talking about, man. Ain't nothing like that feeling, man.
Clorox Representative
Hey, man, not.
DraftKings Representative
Me and this man. We having a conversation.
Clorox Representative
Oo, you ain't play Eagles. Why you got the hammer up there?
DraftKings Representative
This, this.
Nicole Dean
He got the hammer.
Clorox Representative
Than this.
DraftKings Representative
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. This super bowl champ. The super bowl champ. We having a conversation. Hey. Oh, hey, Kobe. Kobe. Hey, man, you go let's whisper. We don't want you to hear what we talking about, man. You play Kobe. You played extremely well this year. You was having an outstanding season. You get down. Did you know when you. When. When you went down, did you know that the seriousness of your injury.
Nicole Dean
I did. I didn't. I felt like my knee just buckled. And then like, I. I kind of look down, I see my kneecap on top of my thigh. Yeah. So I. I sat down and I pushed my kneecap back in. And I stand up, I'm like, all right. As soon as I stand up, it popped back out and I push it back in. I'm like, all right. I'm walking off the field, I'm thinking, okay, it dislocated. Give me a brace. And then it just kind of blew up like a balloon. And I'm like, what? I'm like, damn. But I mean, it's all good. I mean, I. I had an injury before. God got me. I'll be back better than.
Clorox Representative
How is. How is rehab going right now? Are you back running? What do you think your strength, your lower extremities, are they back almost normal? A little bit, yeah.
DraftKings Representative
Yeah.
Nicole Dean
I mean, we getting up. We getting. I'm what? I'm fire.
DraftKings Representative
We.
Nicole Dean
I'll be five weeks out from surgery.
Clorox Representative
Okay.
Nicole Dean
Wednesday. I'll be five weeks off on surgery Wednesday. So by week six is going. It gonna take off because it's a protocol you gotta follow. It's slow in the beginning, then pick up. Yeah.
DraftKings Representative
Cole, let me ask you this. Last year, you guys struggled defensively. You couldn't get off the field, you couldn't rush the quarterback. You seemingly couldn't do anything. You bring in Vic Fangio, and in one season, it's been. I can't remember a time that a defense has done a 180 like your guys, like you guys did. What do you think the biggest difference was between last year and this year's Super Bowl? Out, lights out, outstanding defense.
Nicole Dean
I feel like it was the buy in. It was a buy in from the guys. I mean, you got. You got Vic, who been in the game for a long time. Then you got. Well, we was one of the youngest defenses in the league. So it was like everybody kind of. We. We all look into each other like we ain't really done nothing. So we just kind of bought in to what he. Because we kind of came in with like a older. Older head mentality, like doing OTAs.
DraftKings Representative
No nonsense.
Nicole Dean
No nonsense. So it was like we were doing the.
Ocho Cinco
The.
Nicole Dean
At first with Sirianni, like my. My first two years, it was like, you know, OTAS was cool. I mean, like, they ain't really push us as much. It wasn't as hard. Training camp wasn't that hard. And then Vic come. He got us doing conditioning drills, doing OTAs. But we bought into it. We bought into it. That's why you see somebody like Jalen Carter able to play 100% of snap. Like, you don't really see that from the defensive alignment. So it's just like. And now that we've seen it work, I mean, the sky. The sky ain't even the limit for how good any of those guys us could have been, could be on defense.
DraftKings Representative
I agree with you. I said that last year. I felt if Jalen Carter got some shape, I say he has the ability. He has the ability. He has Reggie White potential. I'm not saying he's going to be that. But you watch him. The way he can rush the quarterback, he can push, bully, he can rip. He's tremendous. First step, he can stop the run. He has no Weakness, it's all in here and up here. And he got himself in shape and he was dominant.
Nicole Dean
Yeah, it was definitely, it was, it was great to see. Cause I've been playing with him since college, so. And JC also got like a. I don't know, you get out there, you kind of see them line to be a little scared of him because he, he coming out the gate first before the first nap and he talking. They in the huddle, he, he yelling.
DraftKings Representative
He.
Nicole Dean
He got a little different. Different kind of.
DraftKings Representative
He got a little screw loose up there.
Nicole Dean
Yeah, he, he talked a little different than bg so you can kind of tell that the lineman scared. Like he'll, he'll look at alignment and say yeah, he's scared. He's scared. He's like pointing at him. And the line was just kind of just ain't saying nothing to him. He's like.
Clorox Representative
Most of the time there's not very many officers, linemen that really talk back in general. They always, they always, for some reason they always focus. Don't really do the trash talking, especially back to the deep lineman. I used to get myself in trouble during my day because I would talk trash and TV timeout. The, the closest people to me would be the defensive lineman. You know, TV time I might cross the thing and the refereeing it back up. And my deep, my, my left, my left and right tackle would always tell me, Chad, don't bring them boys up because you ain't got to deal with them in the trenches. Don't, don't, don't. But I got a question for you, man. What's the toughest part about playing linebacker as opposed to in college and the difference in the NFL? What's the difference outside of the speed of the game?
Nicole Dean
For me, for me, I feel like the toughest part is I feel like linebackers should be the general on the defense. You should be the one. You should be. You should be the one lining everybody up or not necessarily line everybody up, but kind of like you should be like the battery pack. The, the get everybody going. You, you kind of, you kind of do the glue in a sense, we like to call ourselves the glue. Like we, we run with four, three. Yeah, baby. 350. So it's like I feel like being linebackers, we got to be able to do all that and we gotta also be able to keep everybody kind of kind of like when JC a chance to get the. Get to get the mile from now we don't want that 15 yard penalty. I gotta tell them to chill out.
DraftKings Representative
You gotta calm everybody down.
Nicole Dean
Yeah, you gotta. You gotta hand her. You gotta have the other guys of the defense to be able to even have the green knot and make the calls and everything. And I feel like as a linebacker, you shouldn't, like, shy away from that. You should want to embrace something like that and go for it. So I feel like that's the toughest part. Not even just playing the game, because see, if you can play, you can play.
DraftKings Representative
How did playing at a program like the University of Georgia? Cause you know Kirby, he came from Coach Saban. And Kirby had no nonsense. You gotta grind. You gotta thump Kobe. Hey, he ain't no walkthrough practice. You pumping. He owned. He owns school. So how did playing the University of Georgia prepare you to play for the Philadelphia Eagles? And then it made me.
Nicole Dean
It gave me that like a different type of. I say give a factor just because. Just because it's like you playing it somewhere. Like George, you. I ain't have. I ain't had it in either. So you had that. You had that money coming in. So you had to be playing. You had to be playing and get to the league or you really had to love it. Cause we was banging every day. We was banging every day. And it kind of made me grow up and be mature in the sense of no matter what you doing outside of ball, when it comes to being in that building, you gotta perform. And the people inside that building don't care about what you got. Well, in a sense, they don't care about what you got going if you ain't performing. So it's like. And Kirby. Kirby told me that early on, because I was big on school. I was an engineering major. So I was up all night. And he was. Oh, me too. Yeah, I was up all night. So he was. He.
DraftKings Representative
You ain't on the engineering scholarship, Kobe. That's what. That's what Kirby probably told you.
Nicole Dean
He. I'll tell y'all a story. It was my freshman year. I came in early. It was springtime. And I had first got there. I'm out late partying with the guys. And then I'm staying up late doing homework. Then it's like spring practice. So I'm in the meetings, dozen off, dozing off. Kirby coming to me. He say, you know, man, hey, this before practice. He said, you know, man, I know you. You working hard, you got the engineering. You know, you trying to find your way. And I know it's hard right now. Cause the defense hard. But I don't give a fuck. That's exactly what he told me. He said. He said he don't care. He said, hey, he said, when you come out here, I need you focus. When you come in the meetings, I need you focused. I need you up. So. And they kind of. I always remember that. If I don't remember nothing else Kirby told me, I remember that and it kind of. It helped me through everything with my business and all that. So like they don't care. They don't care till you make it.
DraftKings Representative
It's a performance based league.
Clorox Representative
Yeah.
DraftKings Representative
All that other stuff where you came from, buckets of war, Lombardi outlet trophy, Heisman trophy. They don't give a D about that. You better be able to perform or they gonna get your, you know what up out that building.
Clorox Representative
Most definitely. Hey, listen, who are the. Who are some of the linebackers, bro? You know, obviously I've had players that I look up to and actually studied and tried to model my game after. Before I made it the league and tried to do what they did once, once I, once I got there. Who are some linebackers, past or present that you studied a model your game after?
Nicole Dean
Well, I used to. I'm, I'm, I'm. I'm towards the shorter end. I'm a little bit under six foot, so I used to look at guys like Eric Kendricks who was a little. He was kind of like unorthodox in the footwork and everything. Of course, usually look at Ray. I used to look at dad. Brooks Roquo came right before me. I like because he's just like a pure linebacker. He plays like those guys mostly. And I used to study like Darius Leonard as far as like punching the ball out and everything like that. But of course he had he real long kind of guy. Yeah, but he real. Yeah, I used to study him as far as like getting turnovers. Fred. Of course, just those guys and many more. I used to study safeties too, like Apollo Malu. Not like I wasn't gonna play safety, but it's just like you, you kind of study the guys that you like to play the game. Like you study James Harrison. Even though he was out the edge. He told my fault. I know. I said, don't worry, I'm whooping.
Clorox Representative
Listen, it's okay. It's okay. Hey, I'm a whoop him. You good? You good?
Nicole Dean
I used to stay like James Harris. Like the physicality of the game and everything like that. I just felt like. I feel like as a linebacker with the NFL and elite trying to take some of the physicality out of the game. It's on us to bring it back, you know, and do it our way. Not trying to get. Finding anything like the hip job.
Clorox Representative
Yeah.
Nicole Dean
Bs.
DraftKings Representative
Let me ask you this, Kobe.
Clorox Representative
You taking. You taking all my questions, man, Go ahead. Yeah, Listen, I got one more question now for you, for somebody as young as you, and I'm thinking about just me, because I've never won. I've never won anything, you know? So if you won so much so early in life, when you got so much left in your career, how do you define success for yourself as a player and a linebacker when you've already won an Ashland championship? You won a Super bowl already. So what else is left on the played outside of personal goals?
Nicole Dean
Outside of personal goals. You just kind of. You kind of tasting greatness. You want to. Like I said, when you win that. When you win that first. Natty, you win that first super bowl, you want to keep winning, it all starts over. You don't want to, like. Okay, okay. If I want to play a decade in the league, I just finished my third year, so I at least got seven more years. @ the beginning of every year, my goal is to be the best linebacker in the league and to win a Super bowl, to have the top defense in the league. So. And that's kind of what you do with everything, to be honest. You set your goals for yourself and you just try to push towards it. So. And I don't downplay them. I don't care how many times I did it. If I wanted, I'm gonna go get it.
DraftKings Representative
That's.
Clorox Representative
I like that.
DraftKings Representative
Let me ask you this. The rule now, they're trying to get the tush push ban. Have you guys been able to stop the tush push in practice? How many times have you guys stopped in practice?
Nicole Dean
Y'all know we ain't doing that in practice. They. I always joke with some of the old line, but, like, y'all know y'all can't. Y'all wouldn't be able to do that against us. I always joke against them, but, man, look, they. If somebody don't like it, they gonna try to ban it. So I say keep it, of course, for buyers. Make them stop it for buyer's reasons. I'm a defensive guy, so it's like, I don't care at this point. And in the league, it's not too much stuff. I'm not gonna look at something on the offensive side of the ball and be like, oh, they need to ban this because it's bad football. Like, nah, we on defense. We gonna figure it out. We get paid to stop. We get paid to stop offenses. We get paid for them not to score. So we gonna try to figure it out.
Clorox Representative
And that's the problem. The people in positions of power don't have the mentality like you have or the mentality like the players have. You know, especially those that are part of the competition committee. They trying to do it with stuff simply because you can't stop it.
Nicole Dean
Exactly.
Clorox Representative
But neither here nor there.
DraftKings Representative
Dynasty repeat. Yeah, Eagles.
Clorox Representative
Yeah.
DraftKings Representative
Y'all won the Super Bowl. Y'all about to. Y'all about to run it back at.
Nicole Dean
The beginning of every year. The goal is a Super Bowl.
Clorox Representative
It is.
Nicole Dean
It is.
DraftKings Representative

Clorox Representative
Yeah, I don't have no problem with that. I don't have a problem with that at all. And not.
Ocho Cinco
Not at all.
Clorox Representative
Listen, there's enough film out there on Shador centers. We know we can throw the ball. There's no need to throw in front of the scouts, though, where it's most important, huh? If the scouts want to see you throw, look at the film. Turn it on. You have a lot of film. From Jackson State to Colorado to high school. We know what he can do. We know what he can do with his arm. We've seen him do it before. Pro day is where it's going to be nice. Y'all come out here. You want to see me throw? Come on out here to the pro day. No need to throw that. There are certain people that have to put that presentation on as far as throwing and what they can do as far as agility wise at the quarterback position at their. I mean, at the combine. Shador's not one of them. Have you seen the.
Ocho Cinco
The.
Clorox Representative
The training session with him and can ward the. Look, they hilarious.
DraftKings Representative
They are they.
Clorox Representative
For they remember the movie Two old grumpy Men or something? Something like that.
DraftKings Representative
That's Grumpy Old Man.
Clorox Representative
Yeah. Yeah, that's. They remind me them too. I don't know why. It's really funny. That's good. Content between them two.
DraftKings Representative
Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau.
Clorox Representative
Oh, you remember the names.
Ryan Seacrest
Okay.
Clorox Representative
Okay, you ready? You ready for Hollywood? Okay.
DraftKings Representative
And didn't what you call him try. I think didn't what you call them do a remake of that? Morgan Freeman is somebody. Didn't they do a remake? I know that. If I'm not mistaken, I know Jack Lemon and Walter Mathau.
Clorox Representative
That was the original Grumpy Old Man.
DraftKings Representative
Oh, they mad at us. Talking about we. We tried to make Smitty seem like a victim. Ain't nobody say Smitty a victim. All I'm saying is. Wait.
Clorox Representative
Wait a minute. Wait a minute. Wait a minute. Who is who?
DraftKings Representative
Hold on.
Clorox Representative
Smitty is the victim here. What are they talking about?
DraftKings Representative
Smith ain't no victim. You're not. No, wait.
Clorox Representative
He didn't know.
DraftKings Representative
Let's just go ahead. Not a victim.
Clorox Representative
Okay, he's not a victim. So the wife. The wife.
DraftKings Representative
But we were. But we were. But we weren't trying to make him a victim. All we were saying is that it was two consenting adults.
Clorox Representative
Right.
DraftKings Representative
And what he knew I'm not here to say what he knew because I don't know. Smitty ain't never talked to me about it, and I don't talk about it. So I don't know what Smitty know, when he knew or how he found out. That's not what I'm saying. All we all Ocho. And I was saying is that, bro, your problem should be with her, not him. Smitty isn't married to you. Smitty is not under the. He does. Smitty doesn't owe you anything. She owes you that. She owes you loyalty. She owe you commitment. Not Smitty.
Clorox Representative
Trying to figure out. I'm trying to. I'm trying to. Look, let me look in the chat and see who the hell is mentioning Smitty in the first place and not focus on the goddamn wife and her husband.
DraftKings Representative
That's all I'm saying. Look, I'm saying. Look, what All I'm saying is, is that the guy, whatever the party is, the other party, doesn't owe the individual anything. Because if it's a female, be mad at your husband, not the female. Because the female is not in the relationship with you. The female, if you're married, the female didn't make a commitment to you before. God, Smitty did not make no commitment to this guy. The guy and the young lady had a. They took those vows. Those vows are sacred to them. That's what I'm saying. That's my stance now, all that other stuff, however they want to take it. Whatever y'all want to take out of that. That's all I'm saying. Me? Hey, you just keep it moving. You, if you're in a relationship. Hey, I don't think this thing is going to work out between us. Whatever the case, maybe that's what she wants you to do and you go ahead and move on. If you married, hey, go ahead and get your lawyer. Draw this paper up. Boom, boom, boom, and keep it moving. It's really that simple. Ocho.

It's a nice, viable weapon that's consistent. Can still play the game. He still got that sauce. There's nothing wrong with him. He might even. He got a little age on him. But I like that look. I like that look. I like what Jordan Love is doing, too. And I'm sure lafleur will open him back with open arms. I'm sure the Green Bay organization will open him back with open arms. I don't think he left with a. Left them with a bad taste in their mouth as far as when he did leave. But I think it'd be a good thing. I like it.
DraftKings Representative
I think the thing. When you got small kids, Ocho, the thing is that devontae has kids, and probably after October, they're not gonna be able to go outside. Cause they're gonna be snowing the ground.
Clorox Representative
Right? But it's been that way for eight years when he was there the first time.
DraftKings Representative
Huh? And I think the thing is, that's one of the reasons why he went to Vegas.
Clorox Representative
Okay.
DraftKings Representative
He liked Vegas, right? Cause he turned down more money. He left more money in Green Bay. Now, maybe he got that money back because there's no state income tax, but plus the kids. Basically, kids get to go outside for the most part. Nine months out of the year. There's three months. It's too hot. They're not going outside. But Ocho, let's go. Look, what Ocho and I is talking about is this situation. Now, I would feel the same way if Smitty's wife called her because she is owed no obligation to Smitty. You're in the marriage. That's how that works, Ocho. There's two sides. You and I are both looking at it. What we're saying is that we can only do what we. To our knowledge, Smitty's wife hasn't called the young lady. We're talking about the guy that calls Smitty. We're not saying. Look, if two people are married. Yes, because both sides, somebody got hurt on both sides. Woman on one side, man on the other side, or vice versa. That's all we're saying. Ocho, we haven't heard anything from Smitty's side. All we're hearing is from her side, which is her husband. That's it. Smitty is going to. Whatever. Whatever transpired, Smitty is going to have to have a conversation. He's going to have to sit down and have a conversation with his wife. That's between them. Just like this should have been between him and her. That's all I'm saying. The public didn't have to. Didn't have to hear about it. But he tried to embarrass Smitty because he's hurt. So that's what this was about.
Clorox Representative
Hurt people. Hurt people.
DraftKings Representative
All right, Ocho.
Clorox Representative
Yeah.
DraftKings Representative
Plexico Burroughs sold his jacket. What my dog at.
Clorox Representative
What my dog at.
DraftKings Representative
If that Super Bowl. What? 52. 42. 42 XL. Oh, yeah. 38. Is that 37? 37. 37. Excel is 30. 35. Okay. We was. We were Super Bowl 35. No, it's gotta be. It's gotta be 40 something, Ash. Because we were Super Bowl 35. XXX 5. No. Yeah. So 12 years. So it'd been 2007. Yes. Okay, that's what I thought. 42. The highest. The highest anyone has ever paid for a Super bowl ring. He sold the ring, Ocho. It went for $280,600 at auction. Burris made over 29 million in his career.
Clorox Representative
Okay, I have a question.
DraftKings Representative
Okay. You make two. Yes.
Clorox Representative
I mean, I'm curious. When people actually sell their rings or sell their memorabilia, especially two more rings like this, does that mean that they don't have money anymore or you just want to get rid of it?
DraftKings Representative
I don't know what it means. I don't want to speculate.
Clorox Representative
Okay?
DraftKings Representative
I don't.
Clorox Representative
I'm just.
DraftKings Representative
I mean, I say Tom Brady. I saw Tom Brady auction off his. His watches. Do we not think. Do we think Tom Brady is destitute?
Clorox Representative
No.
DraftKings Representative
I mean, he's making 37 million from. From Fox.
Clorox Representative
Yeah.
DraftKings Representative
Plus all of his outside endeavors. So I don't think Tom Brady. Maybe he wanted to get rid of those watchers. Maybe he want to replace them. I don't know. I don't. I don't. So I don't want to speculate. I know people will speculate because it's a soup. I mean, you work so hard to get that, and now, you know, but sometimes it doesn't mean. Football rings don't mean the same thing to everybody, Ocho.
Clorox Representative
And they think you can't eat them rings. Them rings ain't paying bills. But they can't pay them bills once you get rid of them, you know?
DraftKings Representative
So, you know, Plex, he made over 29 million. Let's just say he made 30 million. We're gonna cut that in half for 15 million. Okay. He gotta live. I think he had a wife, got kids. Okay. He got in trouble with the law. That probably ate up a million dollars right there. Dang, man, Ocho, you know, it don't take. And the problem is when you have money Going out and you don't have any coming in. See, that's the problem. So Ocho, you used to having money coming in. So think about it. You got to live now. I don't know. I don't know plaque's lifestyle. But I'm saying you got a mortgage, you got car note, you got kids, you got wife and you got nothing coming in, right?
Clorox Representative
That's why, see, that's why you see? And you, you wonder why. I got, you know, 367, 11 jobs I got to live. I got kids.
Nicole Dean
Like I want.
Clorox Representative
I want to get this mega yacht by the, by the end of 2026. And there's only one way I'mma get it. By having multiple streams of income.
DraftKings Representative
Yeah. So I always like, I like. Damn, bro.
Clorox Representative
Damn. Would you ever auction off one of your rings?
DraftKings Representative
No. I got three kids. Each kid's gonna get a ring.
Clorox Representative
I like that.
DraftKings Representative
Now what they do with it after that, that's on them.
Clorox Representative
How do you decide which kid gets which ring?
DraftKings Representative
The oldest. Kayla, get the first one. Kiara, get the second one. Pooh. Get the last one.
Clorox Representative
Now, is there a way to decipher which ring holds more valuable, is worth more than the other or they. You think it's all.
Nicole Dean
All equal?
DraftKings Representative
I don't, I don't. I don't think anything. This, that's the way I'm split it up. When it comes to. When it comes to certain memorabilia, a lot of the stuff I'm gonna try to sell because I know they gonna sell it. Now the gold jacket, that's not gonna sell, I probably end up donating that to Savannah State. Let them keep that. It's hard for them to keep stuff on campus because they're worried about stuff. People stealing it. They took my jersey down. They had my jersey up. They retired my jersey many years ago, but they took it out of the case because they were worried about somebody stealing it. And that's unfortunate. But yeah, the kids, each kid will get a ring. I'm very fortunate. Three for three, you know, they'll get some stuff. Each one to get a Super bowl jersey. Same thing, first, second, third. But most of the stuff, I'm just going to end up selling it because I know they're going to sell it. They're not going to keep all those game balls that I won and stuff like that on show. It's just the cleats and stuff like this, you know, I would like for them too, but it doesn't mean the same. It doesn't mean the same to Them as it meant to me.
Clorox Representative
So have you thought about what you want to give me?
Ocho Cinco
Or.
Clorox Representative
Or I ain't. I'm walking away empty handed.
DraftKings Representative
I got a nightcap hat with my sign on. I got some boxing gloves. You can shoot me. You can shoot. We can have a 3, 4 competition for this LV basketball if you want to.
Clorox Representative
So that. So they. They get. They get the good stuff, and I got. I get an LV Basketball.
DraftKings Representative
Bro, you ain't even got your own memorabilia. What the hell you gonna do with mine?
Clorox Representative
Sell it.
DraftKings Representative
Exactly. That's. That's why. That's why I'm beating them to the porch. Yeah, that's that. That's. That's why I will beat them to the point, because I know that's what they gonna do, and rightfully so. And I just. I would just rather go ahead and take that out of the equation because, like, sometimes the appearance, I mean, you know, they're going to be taken care of, but they. Somebody see them selling something, Man, I know he left them all that money, and they ain't got no money now, so take that off the plate. I tell you what. Let me get that Eagle sale. Eagles fans. I got. I gotta. I got something to sell y'all.
Clorox Representative
What you got? What you got? Huh? What you got?
DraftKings Representative
Eagles fan. Y'all want to buy this?
Clorox Representative
Let me see. Let me see.
DraftKings Representative
Old. Old school.
Clorox Representative
Let me see the face mask. I can tell you who it is. Urban Friar.
DraftKings Representative
Yep.
Clorox Representative
Am I right or wrong?
DraftKings Representative
Yeah.
Clorox Representative
How. I guess that.
DraftKings Representative
I don't know.
Clorox Representative
I. I saw the. I saw the face mask. Huh. So I was either gonna go with Urban Fryer or what's the receiver? What's my dog name? I can't remember my dog name. Played for the Bears. I played for the Eagles, too. Alshon Jeffries. I was gonna say Alshon and Urban Fryer, because I know I could. I could tell. Receiver doesn't even have to have his helmet on, but I know who it is based on the team and then the face mask. That's weird.
DraftKings Representative
I don't think they got these. I don't think they wear these helmets anymore.
Clorox Representative
No, not the helmet, but just the. I don't know. It's weird how. I can tell.
DraftKings Representative
So I'm. I'll be willing to get. Y'all might be ready to partake with that. I'm trying to think, should I sell some. Should I sell to my memorabilia?
Ocho Cinco
Yeah.
Clorox Representative
Yeah. They sell it and send me the proceeds.
DraftKings Representative
Ocho Eagles DC Vic Fangioberrated the defense in team Meeting for the second half performance in the Super Bowl. Jalen Hunt says even after the super bowl, after the team meeting was going over the parade prep, Fangio made the defense stay back and go over the game. He gets to the second half and says, this is unacceptable, unacceptable. 22 points. He wants perfection. You like this Ocho, man.
Clorox Representative
It's cool. I like it. So, I mean, and say he's, he's setting the precedent, he's setting the standard on what they're going to have to need to do and continue to do because they, I mean, they have the opportunity to win a dynasty. Young team is very young both sides of the ball. You know, a few old, few older players, but they have a chance to do something special with the Chiefs almost were able to do the. The Eagles have a chance to run it again. So, you know, coach understands that and talking to his defense where mainly really everybody's probably coming back next year, including some added pieces, you know, via offseason acquisitions and, and the draft. So, I mean, you set the tone. You setting the president early. I like it, I like it. It kind of, kind of extreme, especially after you already won and you had such a large lead. I mean, you're, you're going to give up some points. But you know, for the most part, I mean, they played extremely well. The reason why they were able to have a game the way they had is because of the defense in the first half.
DraftKings Representative
Yeah, for sure.
Clorox Representative
First half said everything they played, they played extremely well.
DraftKings Representative
And he wanted that same. He's like, y'all let up. We supposed to have a blank D. We supposed to be the only team to have under. Did not let him score a point at all because that's what he was looking for. Yeah, he didn't want him to score a point.
Clorox Representative
That would have been, that would have been possible. Hell, they didn't even get a first down. Ain't cross the 50 yard line the whole first half. The whole first half, huh?
DraftKings Representative
This is the go look at the Giants. How many, how many yards. How many yards did the Giants have against that Ravens defense? Jordan, go back and pull up. You pull up the play by play for the Giants Ravens Super Bowl. I mean you think, you think I don't think they had 200 yards a ball fence. Yeah, Giants 35. They have 152 total yards.
Nicole Dean
That's it.
Clorox Representative
The whole game.
DraftKings Representative
Give me the play by. Give me, give me, give me the play by play. What they. Because they went. You ought to see what they. Oh, they didn't score it now they scored on the kickoff. They didn't score no points on offense.
Clorox Representative
Yeah, that don't count.
DraftKings Representative
Oh, yeah, they was. Hold on. Chad, you got. I mean, you got. You got to see this. When you. When. When. Because they had like we. They. They. No, I need like play by play. What the Giants did like punt. Punt. He done.
Nicole Dean
Hey, that.
Clorox Representative
Hey, that's so. Hey, you know what's funny? Huh?
DraftKings Representative
With that?
Clorox Representative
Like every time you talk. Every time you stop talking, like I'm sitting so close to the ocean, I get the. I could hear the waves hidden, crashing up. Crashing up ashore. Every time you stop.
DraftKings Representative
If I was in Miami, you like, man, I can hear that. Be honky.
Clorox Representative
Hey, man.
DraftKings Representative

DraftKings Representative
Against the Giants. Against the Giants. I see.
Clorox Representative

DraftKings Representative

Clorox Representative
Damn.
DraftKings Representative
Yeah, I don't think you all gonna see that again. Minority candidates are now over 29 in getting NFL offensive coordinator jobs this season. 29 OC jobs in a row to white coaches, zero to minorities. The USA Today are reporting. Ocho, what you think?
Clorox Representative
I mean, it's nothing new. I'm not even sure why they're reporting it. It's been going on for the longest. It's been going on for the longest. You know, I'm not even sure why we reporting it now. We continue to have this same discourse every single time it comes around after the job they're taken or jobs are not given. We continue to say the same thing over and over and over. We continue to fight over and over and over for positions that they don't want us in. And they continuously, they continuously make it clear that they don't want us in those positions. And yet, you know, we still fight for them. I'm not sure how long we're going to continue to keep fighting for the positions that obviously we, we deserve, that we are qualified for. But obviously those that aren't as qualified as those that are still get them before us for a reason because they don't want us there. I'm not sure what else to say.
DraftKings Representative
Yeah, we did get ag. Got one job.
Clorox Representative
Yeah.
DraftKings Representative
So yeah, I guess. Baby steps, Ocho. Baby steps. Yeah.
Clorox Representative
Yeah. Listen, I'm with you. We, we've been, we've been, we've been crawling and taking baby steps for 400 years.

DraftKings Representative
Right now we're being joined by two time Pro bowl running back James Cook. James, thank you for joining us, bro. What up jc what's up?
Ocho Cinco
What what up my boy?
Clorox Representative
Why? Let me hold something, man.
Ocho Cinco
You got it.
Clorox Representative
Hey listen, put it on the floor boy. I'm gonna pick it up man.
DraftKings Representative
James, let's talk about this great season that you had over a thousand yards. I think what 15 rush touchdowns during the season had an outstanding like we just dropped him. Bear with his guy. He's on his cell phone. He was kind enough to join us. He was not going to be in a situation where he could get land. But I appreciate that bro. Yeah, I was as I was saying, great season running the football, revamped offense as far as running the football. Offensive coordinator first time full time. He blended. Took over a year ago in the halfway through the season when you look at what you were able to do in particular and what this team was able to do considering all the pieces that you lost, you lost your two top receivers. Matt Mulatto was injured a lot of the season, a lot of your DBs, both of your safeties and white gone. Nobody really expected you guys to be in this situation, did you really think that you guys had an opportunity, had a chance to end up being where you were in the AFC championship game and what, three points away from actually winning that game?
Ocho Cinco
Without a doubt. I mean when you got 17 back there, it's always a chance. Like that's what I say. Like I just feel like he wanted the best and he gonna put us in the best situation to always win. So when he back there and we back there and we connecting is something great.
Clorox Representative
Listen, everybody always talks about Josh Allen. They always talk about him losing, you know, some of the, some of the losing digs and then not having a superior wide receiver, weapons on the outside. But what people don't talk about enough of is what you've been able to do. You take some of the pressure off of Josh Allen. Listen, you stepped into a bigger role in the Bill's offense. You know, how have you embraced being a centerpiece in that system?
Ocho Cinco
I just came to work every day for real, for real. Like that's all I can ever do. Like I could control what I can control at the end of the day. But when you don't come in there at work and you don't come in there and be that guy and be that leader in the locker room, you will never be nothing. So that's what I tried to come and do. And I feel like it's been working. I'm a team guy, I'm always coming in at work and when it come on Sundays. I gotta kill you, Shane.
DraftKings Representative
When I look at you guys, I mean you get so close every year. You had the best record in the AFC two years ago and then you end up losing at to Baltimore. And then this year you had unbelievable season and you lose to Kansas City in the championship game. What is the next step? What do you guys need to do in order to get over that hump which is Patrick Mahomes in the afc.
Ocho Cinco
We just got to be aggressive. Like I just feel like we got to be aggressive. And with a guy like 15 back there, you gotta, you gotta just gotta beat em like moral of the story, like I can't say nothing, she's gotta beat him. So when you come in games like that and you know when your back against the wall and you gotta win and you got your guys next to you, you gotta go win shit. You know, you playing 1 5, you know how it's gonna be, you know it's gonna be ebbs and flows of the game. So you gotta just control what you can control and go out there and play football at the end of the day.
DraftKings Representative
So you would like to be more aggressive early on. You feel like you got. When you guys fell behind, then you became aggressive. You like to see that from the word jump.
Ocho Cinco
Let's go off the rip.
Clorox Representative
Yeah. You know, it never happened. It never happens that way. For some reason, especially when you get to playoff games with games of extreme importance. Most of the time. I think sometimes, especially from a coach's standpoint, as an offensive coordinator, you say you overthink. You overthink the game instead of just playing free, you know, you already have what you've already done throughout the entirety of the season because you're playing the Kansas City Chiefs. There's no need to just continue to do what you've always done. And you use. Use your bail cow, you, for instance, and 17, and just rock out. And I think they lost sight of that. Or he, the offensive coordinator, lost sight of that. Once you got to that game and not allowing himself to just. Just play freely, call the plays freely, because you got all you need right there in hand. And I think for. For one, y'all are going to consistently be back. You know, obviously you're in the afc. Obviously, I'm a Bengal fan. But understanding what you guys have, and I want to talk about you from an individual standpoint and how much your game has evolved from a rookie to now and where you are right now, what do you think you need to work on? As good as you've gotten from your rookie season to this point, what do you think you need to work on to continue to evolve at the running back position?
Ocho Cinco
I just feel like I can. I just got to keep getting better and, you know, like, be able to be on the field every down, like, in key situations. Like, I feel like I could do it. Just look at this point, like, what else more I could do? Like, right? So I just feel like, man, just keep me on the feeling and great things are happening.
Clorox Representative
Hey, when also one more. Hold on. I got one more. I like this Here. I like this. Listen, there are a lot of good running backs in the league, right? You know, Henrys, the McCaffreys. Even though he was injured for most of the season, if there was one thing you could take from one of the running backs in the league that you look up to and you're a fan of, if there was one thing from their game you could add to yours, what would it be?
Ocho Cinco
I go with Christian McCaffrey. Just, like, just all the explosiveness that he got in his game and what he can do with the ball and so many positions that he can be in and you don't even know when he getting the ball. And he's just getting the ball and just go this bitch like all that. So just putting that traits in my game and be able to learn from what he doing. And my, like, I look up to my brother, so it's like whatever he can, whatever I learned from him, I put that in my game and just try to just go out there and play football. At the end of the day, shit, we've been doing it.
Nicole Dean
Yes, sir.
DraftKings Representative
There are reports, James, and you can confirm or deny this, that you want to be the highest paid running back in the NFL. And men's like, hold on, wait a minute now. I don't know if he's earned that or he's deserving of that. What do you say to the foe that says, man, James Cook don't deserve to be the highest paid running back? I'm sorry.
Ocho Cinco
At the end of the day, I feel like we just going against running backs and I feel like we deserve to get paid. Cause when they come down to the back end of this season, we play a big part of this shit. So however they want to take it, then I'm standing with the running back. We deserve it.
DraftKings Representative
Now, if I'm not mistaken, you can correct me if I'm wrong again. Now, it's reported that there were a phone call between a lot of the top running backs, yourself and McCaffrey and Derek Henry and Saquon Barkley. And I think Josh Jacobs was on that call. When you guys had that call, if you were on that call, what was that discussion?
Ocho Cinco
Shit, we valuable and we deserving what we need. Cause we in the trenches every time. Shit, we bang. Shit. When it come down to the scratch, you gotta run the ball. So it's like, how is we not valuable? Like, how are we not valuable if we can reap the back end of the season? You have to run the ball when it's snowing, y'all. Don't this shit get six feet of snow? So when you put this, like, we gotta run the ball. So it's like, what more can you. Like, how is we not viable? Like at the end of the day, like his point blank period. And you can see like what we do and the position that we play, we play a big part of offenses, like just period, right?
Clorox Representative
And you know what? You are correct in the NFL owners, I'm not sure when that dynamic shifted to where the running back position wasn't valued the way it used to be. Obviously, during Unk's era, during my era, the running back was a very important position. And you guys can actually fight. You guys have a case. You guys can voice your reason for wanting and commanding the kind of money you want, because players like you, Saquan, Derrick Henry, Christian McAffrey, and maybe, maybe two others, you know, your. Jonathan.
Ocho Cinco
No, I'm g. Get Jamir Gibbs, Josh Jacobs.
Clorox Representative
Oh, yeah, yeah. Jamir Gibbs, Josh Jacobs as well. You guys are at the forefront of being able to command the kind of money you want because of what you guys are able to do in taking some of the pressure off your quarterback. When the team needs you guys to grind the clock out, who's the one to show up? Y'all bail cow. That's what it is. And. And most of you can play three downs. Use a goddamn dude threat. So you. You should be getting two goddamn checks. You can line up outside, you can catch it at the backfield. You can hand it off to you. I mean, listen, it's. It's. I. I'm. I'm with you, especially when it comes to getting paid, because y'all bring a different dynamic than. More than just being a running back, because you do more than just run the goddamn ball.
Ocho Cinco
And I can say just one thing, though. I just feel like. I just feel like. Like, we just do so much, like, just like, by going to practice and doing all the little shit, right?

DraftKings Representative

Ocho Cinco
That's it. What I deserve.
DraftKings Representative
When I. When. If you think about it, James, since McCaffrey got that 16 million, nobody's even come close to that number. And so now, you know you're going to uncharted territory. You look at what Saquon got, I think saquon got about 13 and a half. You saw what Derrick Henry got. He got about, what, eight and a half. You see what Josh Jacobs got I think he was around 12, 11 and a half 12. So, you know when you say you want to be the Highest paid and McCaffrey is at the number that he's after, you know, you're reaching for the stars. Are you hoping you land on the moon and get something close to that, or you want to super or you want to jump over that?

DraftKings Representative
Mark, Ron, let me ask you a question. I had a brother that played in the league before I got there. I idolized my brother, and I wanted to be just like him. What role did your brother play and how? Good, because I'm surprised. I think everybody's surprised. You didn't follow his path in Florida State. You went to Georgia. You're probably glad you did. But what role did your big brother play in the guy that we see today that's turned into one of the premier running backs in the NFL?
Ocho Cinco
A big role, Honestly, just like, just if I ask him a question, it's just he always there for me. It's like he always tell me to be myself. Don't ever, like, start from what got you here to, like, create myself to being somebody that I'm not. So I just feel like that's what he told me, and I'm gonna keep. Continue to being myself and just always have that older brother in my ear to always guide me in the right direction, and I'm gonna. That's my oldest brother, and I'm always listening to him. So I feel like he did great. He set the standard. So it's like, why not follow it? It's like, if I don't follow it, it's like I set myself short because I had an older brother to lead the way and show me the ropes of how to get there. And if I don't follow it, I'm a failure. I feel like. You know what I'm saying? So it's like, always, just keep working hard and keep grinding and get what you want in life. Shit. That's all I can say.

Never get too low, never get too high. So pre game, getting myself together, I'm buying into a little rv, calming myself down. But before I get on the field, his smell is hot and young boy, it's time to go.
