As friendships are tested, families evolve and and secrets refuse to stay buried, one thing is certain. The shy is more than just a series. It's a legacy. Don't miss the final season of the Shy. Now streaming on the Paramount Premium plan. Charles Oakley now says he's beefing with his former teammate Patrick Ewan. For Patrick not to be a man enough to come and talk to me after having his back for 10 years. He's a coward. Nah, nah, nah. The last straw was when Wheat was in Cleveland and he knows I'm from Cleveland. He. He knew I was at the game, and he didn't speak to me as many times as he's been to my mother's house. He can't speak to me. Nah. I'm drawing the line I meet. I played with him for 10 years. He's just not a good person. He might make money All Star dream team, but that doesn't make you a good person. Lord have mercy.
Uncle Joe
What's going. What's going on with you? Hey, hey, hey.
Shannon Sharpe
I don't know. I didn't know. I didn't know he had to be. I know he had to be for Patrick, you. Because hella if I knew it was gonna be the topic, you know me, I'd hit his ass up. Hell, I got it to come on the damn show. Yeah, I know it.
Uncle Joe

Uncle Joe
It's just that crossing, you know, he didn't. He didn't speak to him. That's really nothing to be angry.
Joe Johnson
Well, I think it's more to it than that. Oo, yes, it's more to it than that. That was just. That was just one incident he probably pointed out, you know, considering the fact that he from Cleveland was at the game and he.
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah, he know. You know, I'm at the game and you don't speak, but it's.
Joe Johnson
It's more that doesn't happen than. Than just being in Cleveland, you know, and that probably just took the icing off the cake. You feel me?

Uncle Joe
Oak pro Oak probably got a lot of pressure right now. He need to, need to get off his chest. You know, the stuff with the Knicks, you know, at the Garden, James Dolan, now Patrick Huan. And he, he probably just need to relieve some stress, man, like just, just let it all out. Ask Oak if you want to fight.
Joe Johnson
Fight who, me? No, come on, man, chill. Yeah, yeah, he done chill.
Uncle Joe
Now release all that anger, man. And you know, you just, just use me as you punch your bag and then let all by going be bygones.

Hey, I've been, I'm telling you, I, I know him. Like I said, I've been knowing him 30 plus years. Hey, if you, if you borrow money from him and you tell him you're gonna give it back at a certain date, have that man money or go borrow the money that you borrowed from him, borrow from somebody else that you know can't whip you. And you can pay him when you want to, because if you owe him money, he gonna knock.
Joe Johnson
Hey, listen, I've been in the gym, bro, when I, I didn't seen it go down myself, Uncle Ocho, meaning here in Atlanta, we should play at this athletic club over here in Buckhead. I, I ain't, you know, I ain't gonna necessarily call out no name, but when he walked in, it was like a loose pit bull. You hear me? And he ain't say nothing. We was miss hooping in the midst of playing a game, got his ass up out of there to call them folks on him.
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah, yeah, I'm telling you, I'm telling you, he's like that. People. When people Say, oh, oh. He just go, no, he don't come. He don't calm down some.

Hey, let's go to the restaurant, get something.
Uncle Joe
Yo, he walked in there and put hands on somebody.
Joe Johnson
Hell yeah.
Shannon Sharpe
That man walked into another team's practice and slapped somebody just because he was on the phone with a chick and he came there and asking, who you talking to? He drove in the middle of the night. That man drove 10 hours to get at him. He couldn't find him. Guess what? They happen to be on the schedule. They had shoot around.
Joe Johnson
Yeah.
Shannon Sharpe
Oh, what, the gym? Like, what you say? Foul. Hold on.
Uncle Joe
He slapped somebody at their own shoot around?
Shannon Sharpe
Absolutely.
Joe Johnson
You know, like a shoot around, Ocho. Like if it's one team at shoot around, like, soon as we getting finished, the other team will be kind of waiting right there. So they'll be walking on as we walking off. So we are running to each other. You know what I mean?
Shannon Sharpe
It's easy to.
Joe Johnson
It ain't nothing for you to touch somebody now, right?
Shannon Sharpe
Yes, yes. He drove, first of all. He drove 10 hours, couldn't find him. He said, tell him I'm on my way. Hey, cuz, I don't worry about it. Don't worry. Don't. Don't worry about it. He walked in the middle of their practice. Yeah. And then told. Hey, man, you slapped the dude and told his partner. Well, you should have helped him. Yes.
Uncle Joe
Okay.
Shannon Sharpe
Yes.
Uncle Joe
I take back what I said. I don't want to.
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah, man, like I said, I done hug with the dude at a lot of different places. I know. No, no, him.
Joe Johnson
Hey, I only know one person who can calm him down, bro, and that was mj. I got a chance to hang out with him and MJ one night here in Atlanta after we played this softball game. And, oh, got into it with the damn. With the bouncer. The security at the club. Ocho couldn't get a he about jumping that boy like a cheap suit. You hear me? MJ had to come on. MJ had to come from back there and be like, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey. If it wasn't for that boy finna go down. Yeah.

Hey, hey, I. I'm like, bro, look, let's go. Let's go, hey, we. We let the club one night up here. He don't like to be touched. He don't. He don't like to be touched, and he don't like to be interrupted when he's talking to somebody because he said, that's disrespectful. You see me talking to somebody. Me, I. Look, I don't, you know, we talking, Especially if you don't know that person.
Joe Johnson
He ain't.
Shannon Sharpe
He ain't to play with. He not to play with. So you see him a lot. Hey, throw your. Hey, throw your hand up. Throw your hand up and keep it moving. Just.
Joe Johnson
I just tell you all in all, though, he really a good dude, though.
Shannon Sharpe
No, he ain't no good dude. He a great dude. Hey, he got eight. I could. I could come home because he used to have.
Joe Johnson
Here.
Shannon Sharpe
Hey, oh, let me get your car. He a jimbo. Sharp say, you need my car? You have it at his house. You need some. Hey, you be somewhere. Oh, Let me hold 20. Let me hold 30. Let me hold 50 grand. No problem. He's a really, really good dude. If he rock with you, but don't cross him. And if you tell him you're gonna give his money, if you tell. Oh, you. You could borrow a hundred thousand, two hundred thousand. If you give him a date, say, oh, I'm going have your money at this date. Have that man money on that date. If you don't have his money, he gonna walk up to you, he gonna say, man, you got my money? And when you say no end, that's all you. That oh ain't coming out. It's gonna be like, oh, it ain't gonna be no. No, it's gonna be o.
Joe Johnson
Hey, hey, hey. The best thing you can do is not to buy no damn lump sum of money like that from nobody. Like, oh, hell no. Because it's the principle. It's the principle for him.
Shannon Sharpe
Yep. That's how you stand on it. But, yeah, like. Like Joe said, he a good dude. He rock with you. He rock with you. He loyal. He really, really loyal. If. Look, if he. If he rock with you, if somebody talking about you let it go down. He ain't gonna let it go down. He said, nah, I rock with Sharp. I ain't trying to hear that. So you want to talk about him? Take your ass over there. That's how he is. That's how he is.
Uncle Joe
I like. I like them old stories, man. I like that.
Shannon Sharpe
Oh, Steph Curry is planning on meeting with LeBron James to recruit him to The Warriors. And Now Bleacher predicts LeBron James could finish your career with the warriors on a two year, 30.8 million dollar deal. The hypothetical move would pair LeBron James, Steph Curry, Draymond Green and Christopher Zingas for one final title push. Joe, imagine LeBron and Steph actually ending up on a team. Not a, not a, an all star team, not an Olympic team, but an actual NBA team. Do you think Steph Curry, Jimmy Butler, Draymond Green and Christoph Brzinga, is that enough to make them a title contender coming out of the West?
Joe Johnson
I like that combination. I think Steph and LeBron would complement each other so well. Draymond as well, Porzinga as well. But it depends on the type of the other, the others, the other guys that they gonna surround them guys with Uncle Ocho. But because let's face it, those guys are up in age and to, and think, and to think that they just gonna walk through a 82 game damn season. That ain't gonna happen. That ain't gonna happen. So you're gonna have to have some great young talent, guys who know their role, play stars in their role and, and, and are willing to sacrifice because at the end of the day, you know it's gonna revolve around Braun, Curry and Draymond. And you gotta have a lot of these young guys, bro, who be willing to accept that and, and enjoy their role. So I would love to see it though. I think it'll change the landscape of basketball. I think they'll be great if they can stay healthy. I think they definitely can make some noise.
Shannon Sharpe
My, my thing is like, who's going to play defense? Like you said, Joe, Steph Curry is not as known as a defensive guy. LeBron is 40, going to be 42 years of age and he can't play defense like he once could. Christoph Brzinga's can't stay healthy. You. Jimmy Butler is coming off a knee injury. Draymond complete. Hey, Draymond is Draymond. We know what Draymond can do. But like you said, okay, what are you going to feel around him? Because you're going to have to have
Joe Johnson
three or four guys that defense and perimeter guys. Yeah.
Shannon Sharpe
Yes. No, you, you don't need no bigs. You need perimeter guys, you need guards. You need guys that can guard wing players. Because guess what? The west got wings. Somebody got to guard Ant man. Somebody got to guard Murray. Somebody. Somebody got to guard Shay and J Dub and all those guys. Somebody got to guard him. I don't Know who, but I'm just saying something.
Joe Johnson
So if you gonna. If you're gonna team all those guys up, you gotta be willing to put the right pieces around them. But, I mean, I'm sure the basketball world would love to see those guys team up. Hell, I ain't gonna lie. I know I would. You know, I think it'll be. Must watch tv, the way Steph shoots. Shoots the ball, the way Bron can score and facilitate and make guys around him better. I think Draymond would be great in the roles that he'll play. He'll be that. That. That emotional leader, that intimidator. He'll be that point forward who. Who gets guys involved. And you. You already know Draymond knows his role. They gonna play winning basketball because they all. Yeah, yeah, they all gonna want another title. You know, if they all get another title, they all be at five, so I'm sure, you know, they'll be ring chasing for sure.
Uncle Joe
Yeah, but. But you got to think about some of the teams in the west, you know, and. And. And LeBron and Steph and Draymond, as great as they are, the teams that they had, you know, the 73. 9 season, having KD, having Clay, I think it's a little bit different. And thinking that they even have a chance to come out the west with them young boys, them young Bulls, you know, out there right now, I mean, the chances are slim. Great, great team, you know, collectively, you know, all together, you would think experience and veteran presence would kind of give them the edge, but they're not going to be able to run up and down with them young boys, man, coming out the West.
Joe Johnson
That's why. That's why. That's why it's going to depend on who they put around them, bro.
Shannon Sharpe
Okay.
Joe Johnson
Yeah, you know, you. You gotta have. You gotta have some young talent, you know, who. Who can play. And, you know, it's kind of hard because y' all know, man, it's hard playing with some of these great players. It's gonna be hard playing with LeBron.
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah, for sure.
Joe Johnson
Hell, it's hard playing with Steph Curry, you know, when you ain't never been in those situations, playing with that amount of talent, you know what I'm saying? Understanding that, hell, if you're a young dude to some degree, you're gonna have to sacrifice your damn game. I agree.
Shannon Sharpe
Joe Ocho, the ketchup and mustard look, inspired by the uniforms the Rockets Wore during the 94, 95 championship seasons, are returning. The team unveiled the three. The new three jersey set and revamped logos Thursday that reintroduced yellow into the franchise palette. Take a look at the video.

Joe Johnson
Jumpman gonna take over the league soon. What?
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah, it's gonna be the official. It's gonna be the official logo. Joe, if you could bring back any uniform. What?
Joe Johnson
You bringing back any uniform? Yeah, man, I ain't gonna lie to y', all, bro. I. I love the vintage. The vintage retro look, especially when they bring it back and. And they modernize it to where it fits in, you know, with this new age concept. But that Toronto Raptors, I think, is probably not.
Shannon Sharpe
Oh, with. With the Raptor. With the Raptor Ab on the front of the jersey.
Joe Johnson
Them hard.
Uncle Joe
Oh, like. Like Vince Carter. Them.
Joe Johnson
Yeah, I got. I got a tmac. I got a TMAC number one jersey with. Oh, man, them. So them like. Them probably bought the hardest retros to me, bro. Them like some of the hardest retros now. It's some. It's some tough ones out here, but them, them one of the hardest ones.
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah, I like them. I like the Toronto. I like the old 76ers with the bell, with the 70s. Yeah, I like the 76ers. Who else had a hard job?
Joe Johnson
I like. I like Minnesota vintage. Them all black ones they used to have when KG them used to wear. Yeah, those hard six has got a bunch of vintage retro looks.
Shannon Sharpe
Liberty.
Joe Johnson
Oh, man, I'm so hard. It's. It's. It's a few out here.

brown admitted to leaking stories about the Eagles to the media to motivate the team. It was done purposely to give us a push. It gives us everything gives. It gives everything legs to push everyone to be better. I feel it like it was okay to do. Hey hey hey Eagles fan. How y' all feel about that? Because y' all feel everybody made stuff Up. How y' all feel about that Eagle pass? That the guy that was there that was leaking the story, that people reporting on the stories. How y' all feel? Oh, let me guess. Y' all knew AJ Was doing this because, Ocho, you know what they do. Yo, that's what they do anytime somebody give a story. Oh, we didn't do that. Hey, hold on. I need. Hey, put a channel. Okay, let me pull the channel right quick, because I want to see how many Eagles fans are here that knew A.J. brown was leaving.
Uncle Joe
Listen, you. You never.
Shannon Sharpe
Damn. Hold on, hold on. Just a second, Joe. Just a second. Y' all ain't know that y' all do everything y' all do. The man was getting traded in October when you told me in Ocho. We crazy. We just trying to start stuff. Y' all just try to get clicks of, like, hello, hey, Eagle fans. And I know y' all on here. What? What? What? Fly Eagles. Ain't nobody said nothing. Ah, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. He ain't sl. Don't do all that now. Don't do all that now. I want to know who knew that. Yeah, I hate Eagles. Whatever you want to say. I want to know y' all knew that, because every time Ocho and I say something. Joe.
Joe Johnson
Yeah.
Shannon Sharpe
Hey, we could tell, too. We know that he was gonna run the go route on the left side. We know he running the override when he line up in the slot. Y' all knew everything that Ocho and I was saying didn't never play the game and don't know a screen pass from a screenplay porch, but they knew. They knew the damn. Ain't nobody knew. This ain't nobody.
Uncle Joe
I'm more concerned exactly. What. What stories did he actually leak that he felt was going to help the team and push them to do better?
Shannon Sharpe
The mere fact that it's a story that he admitted to doing, it don't matter. He could have said, you know what? We ain't got no pre rap. We ain't had no Gatoraded practice. Yeah, right. The mere fact the man admitted it.
Uncle Joe
Yeah, it did it. Did it work?
Shannon Sharpe
I don't know, Joe. Ocho, I think I would have kept that one to myself. Some things better left unsaid. That's just me. Everybody do handle things differently, Joe. Everybody handles stuff differently. Oho.
Uncle Joe
Hey, hold on. What if for better context, what if the stories that he did leak. What if it was during the super bowl winning season?
Shannon Sharpe
I don't know when it was. I don't think they didn't need no motivational, Joe. You got to realize how many games they won, I think, last year.
Uncle Joe
Hey, them boys were cutting, boy.
Joe Johnson
Hey, hey. Yeah, for me, after I'm done with the ex, bro. I ain't bringing her back up. I ain't talking about her.
Shannon Sharpe

You compete for 30 by this, you. Let's say you don't want to go play with. You don't want to play with the Patriots number, right? They got a one and a two. Where you going that don't have. Already have a one and a two now. Think about that. There are 31 other teams.
Shannon Sharpe
Well, they might not have those one and twos.
Joe Johnson
Hey, man, better make the most of that damn situation over there. It's ain't always green on the other side, bro.
Uncle Joe
Who you telling? I'm. I'm looking at the landscape of the NFL right now. Every team has one or two. Where you gonna go? To the Dolphins.

Joe Johnson
Hell no.
Shannon Sharpe
Look, I would do it like this. I've never. Now, AJ did what he did. We making. I'm making a joke of it. I don't condone what AJ did because I don't want people to say, well, Nightcap, Ocho and Joe and Unc was condoning. I don't condone that. I'm not giving out any information about my team. Whatever transpired, be it a team, be it somebody blowing a place, somebody overslept, somebody got fired, somebody got injured. I ain't telling you ish. Don't ask me facts. So I don't want people because you know, you know, hey, it's something about Nightcap, Ocho and Joe. We get clipped more than anybody. And without even. And without even. Without even listening at the context because people just kill a snippet and then people comment. But did you hear what I said? Did you hear what Ocho said? Did you hear what Joe said? Or are you just commenting based on the comment that was in front of your comment? Yeah, I don't agree. I don't agree with. I didn't agree with his behavior. All I said and all I've ever said. Ocho, I just wish he'd have kept that public. You want to have a discussion with the head coach? And look, look, I need more balls. I need to be involved earlier. I need you guys to get me to Bob earlier. Give me the ball earlier. You got me late. That's all I've ever said. Have a conversation with Petula behind closed doors. Have a conversation with Hertz behind closed doors. I never want to show a teammate up, especially the quarterback. Quarterbacks have the biggest egos. They just do the best job of hiding it. They have the most fragile egos. They just do the best job of hiding it. I've been with. I've been with. I've been around too many of them. And I ain't telling what somebody told me. I'm telling what I know. Most of them have been what coddled. They play that position on Joe in high school, you get coddled. You're playing in college, you get coddled. You get to the NFL and all of a sudden you become really, really good. Hey, there's a reason why he wear a different jersey. He the only one that wears a different jersey than everybody else. You can't touch him. You can't. I don't agree with what, I don't care what type of motivation or what you think he was doing. I don't agree with that.
Uncle Joe
I don't.
Shannon Sharpe
I think there's other ways that you can motivate your team without leaking stuff. That's just me. That's just me. Each his own. Everybody doesn't do things like Shannon. Shannon doesn't do things like everybody else. But I, I, I'm just old school like that. Ocho. I just think there, I just think there's a better, there was a better way to try to get the message, to try to get his team to play at another level.
Uncle Joe
I just think when it comes to that message too, uncle, you have to think he got that C on his chest too. He got the C on his chest so there's really no need for him to be able to leak anything to the media. Being that you're the captain, they gonna listen to you first, right? They gonna listen to you first.
Shannon Sharpe
Unless. And that's the problem that you have. See OO and Joe, when you get that C on your chest, you, you gotta behave in a manner that's different. All that pouting and moping and complaining. Ocho, you can't do that because you want people to follow you, your best players. You want people to follow. That's why. And you know they're watching. That's why you come on time. That's why you had meetings on time. That's why you practice a certain way. That's why you do film study. That's why you try. You're not going to be perfect. So I don't want people to think that I've ever said that I was perfect. I tried to, I tried to be always on time. I tried to play, I practiced hard, I played hard. And when I made mistakes, I made mistakes going 100 miles an hour. But I know people are watching me. I, I want people to say, man, I watched our sharp do certain things, man, that's kind of watch the guy come in as a seventh round draft pick, playing special teams mainly and become an all decade player, become a multiple time Pro bowl player, become a multiple time all pro player and eventually wound up in the football heaven hall of fame. I, I, I love when people like, man, hey, give them advice, try to help them out. They bro this, do it do. If I was you, I would do it like this. You gonna do it your own way. But I'm just saying, I just think there's a better way that you could do certain things. Okay, Shop. I take that on advice, but I'm surprised, Ocho. I ain't gonna lie, man. I ain't never heard anything like this, Ojo. I'm not saying that it hadn't happened before, Joe, because it had, because I believe it has, But I don't think anybody would have ever admitted to that. Oh, Joe.
Uncle Joe
I mean, you're. Listen, I'm with you when you're right that.
Shannon Sharpe
Hold on. How you go. This is. This is a classic example. You get with a new girl. Man, I've been cheating on the old one the whole time. The whole time. But I'll be going. Hey, I've been going. What?
Joe Johnson
Yeah, right.
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah, that's. Hey, chat. Y' all do what y' all want to do with that.
Joe Johnson
Hey, hey, A.J. sicker, bro. I I Hey, I I. But, but, but, but. Dead serious, though. I wouldn't be talking. I wouldn't be talking about the X team, bro. Move on. You got a fresh start. Just be great in that fresh start.
Shannon Sharpe
Everybody happy. Sports Illustrated released their best offensive triplets for 2026 quarter. Quarterback, one running back, one wide receiver, one tight end. The Chargers are in 10 spot. They got Justin Herbert, Omarion, Hampton lad McConkey. So you get a wide receiver or tight end. It can be one or the other. It cannot be both. In the eighth spot, you got Jalen Hurts, Saquon Barkley, Devonte Smith, the 49ers. You got Brock Purdy, Christian McCaffrey, George Kittle. The Chiefs are in the seventh spot because you have Travis Kelsey, Patrick Mahomes, Kenneth Walker iii. The Bengals are in the six. Joe Burrow, Chase Brown, Jamar Chase. The. The Cowboys. And the fifth spot. Dak Prescott, Javante Williams, CD Lamb. The Bills are in the fourth spot. Josh Allen, James Cook, DJ Moore. The Ravens are in the three spot. L, Jack D. Henry, Zay Flowers. The Rams. Excuse me. The Lions are in the two spot. They got Jerry Goff. Somebody spelled golf wrong, but that's never here nor there. Jamir Gibbs, Almond Raw, St. Brown. And the Rams are in the one spot. Matthew Stafford, Kyron Williams. Okay, Joe Ocho. You hate it. Love it. Let the chat know. What did they get right, what did they get wrong?
Uncle Joe
The players that haven't played together belong a little higher. The deck. Deck in CD and Javante. Yeah, they should be a little higher because they got Kenneth Walker. They got Kenneth Walker is. It's Two. It's two of them. I can't remember exactly.
Shannon Sharpe
Kenneth Walker, Patrick Holmes never in the seventh spot. So you got Patrick Mahomes, Kenneth Walker and Travis Kelsey. They're number seven. The fifth are cowboys with Dak Prescott, Javonte Williams, who is four. Josh Allen, James Cook, DJ Moore.
Uncle Joe
DJ Moore hadn't even played there yet.
Shannon Sharpe
Nope.
Uncle Joe
So I. I rather.
Shannon Sharpe
But I guess they're saying James Cook is substantially upgrade over Javante Williams. And they got Dak Prescott as a better as Prescott.
Joe Johnson
How many yards that Cook had?
Uncle Joe
Oh, he bought last.
Joe Johnson
Cook had.
Shannon Sharpe
He led the league in Russian. I think he had six.
Joe Johnson
Okay, I know Javante. Javante had about 1200 yards. He a thousand yard rush.
Shannon Sharpe
And then you got Lamar Jackson, Derrick Henry, Zay Flowers. And then you had Jerry Goff, Jameer Gibbs, Almond Ross, St. Brown. And then you got Matthew Stafford, Kyron Williams.
Uncle Joe
I can't argue with number one.
Joe Johnson
Number two.
Shannon Sharpe
What about Seattle?
Joe Johnson
They gave up their run game.
Shannon Sharpe
You could just put any running back in there with. With jsn and what's a compliment Who's a running back? They gave up? They gave anybody Me.
Uncle Joe
He's coming off an injury. What's his name? How you say his last name? I don't want to butcher. He coming off injury.
Joe Johnson
How they let him go.
Uncle Joe
He.
Joe Johnson
He was an mvp.
Shannon Sharpe
They weren't gonna pay him that kind of money. What he want and it. Because you got to realize I'm not playing a guy that kind of money to split the carries.
Joe Johnson
But damn, if it weren't for him. Aug and Ocho, they probably don't even win the damn Super Bowl.
Uncle Joe
Hey, especially at the running back position.
Shannon Sharpe
Unless you get those diamond dozen.
Uncle Joe
Unless you Christian McCaffrey. You know I can.
Joe Johnson
The running back then diminished for real, ain't it? Man, I remember that used to be half back.
Shannon Sharpe
It's making a comeback. It's making a comeback though, Joe. But there was. There was a stretch there. They running back. They didn't want to pay a running back no damn money.
Uncle Joe
Gotta be special though. Now comeback. But it's making a comeback for those that are actually special.
Shannon Sharpe
Hold on. So yeah. Yeah.
Joe Johnson
Y' all think. Y' all think. Y' all think the Jeremiah Love kids special.
Uncle Joe
Oh, yeah.
Shannon Sharpe
He got in that situation that contract guaranteed and so he got drafted third. What? Third overall. It is what it is.
Uncle Joe
He's special though. He's special.
Shannon Sharpe
I just. It's just hard for me to see a guy just coming into the league that's never cared in NFL football has never thrown Never caught one to make more than guys that's been doing this for a period of time. That's just me. Hey, it happens all the time because there are guys that come in into a new job and been making make more money as a new person on the job than somebody that's been there 10, 15, 20 years. So it is what it is. Yeah, it is what it is.
Uncle Joe
Timing, timing. It's all about time.
Shannon Sharpe
It is. Joe Ocho. It is. Following the decision by an independent intercalactic interschalactic athletic appeals board administered by the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction, the North Carolina High School Athletic association board of directors convened in a special meeting on Tuesday to consider the matter involving the conclusion of the 2026 8Amen's track and field championship. The appeals board vacated the disqualification by the 4 by 400 relay. After review and discussion, the North Carolina High School Associate Athletic association board of directors voted to declare Mallard Creek School and C.E. jordan as co champions of the 2026 8Amen's track and field state championship. The board also voted to recognize Mallard Creek High School and I guess it's saying how high school as co champions in the 4x4 meter relay. I agree with everything until that I don't like the cold. I beat you now. We got the same number of points. Oo we co champions. But I beat you in the race. So in other words, I don't want to take you out. You guys celebrated. You guys were the champions. So I don't want to take that away. So I'm going to make y' all co champions. No, other than that.
Uncle Joe
Yeah, I don't like it. Yeah, I don't like it.
Shannon Sharpe
But I'm not surprised because I almost got us disqualified doing the exact same. But I put the baton in the guy face. I wasn't in front of him. I pulled up beside him, Ocho. But it was my cousin, so I didn't think that county. It was my cousin, so I didn't think that county. Man, my coach. That's the madness. My coach only two times. Coach Holly never been upset at me. I did something in practice. I did something in practice football we playing. I was linebacker Ocho and, and I. I made a tackle and I jumped up, said, yeah, graveyard baby. This graveyard. And he's like, yeah, you tackle like that in practice. I wish you tackle like that in the game, man. Something went all the way through me. I went in the cut huddle. I called 53 Red Dog. I said, I'm finna knock somebody as a blitz. 53 Red Dog. Oh. Ready, Break. Boy, they pull.
Uncle Joe
You caught the guard.
Shannon Sharpe
I caught the running. Yeah, Coach. All say, sucker, you'll kill somebody like that. Go to the sideline. I told him. I said, the next person I hit, y' all gonna come get him. Go back and ask. It was 19. Ask him. Go back and ask Gimville High School. When I hit him, I ain't gonna call his name. I don't want to embarrass him. He. He probably got a wife. Kid probably got grandkids now, but he came and got it.
Joe Johnson
You put that hat on him, huh?
Shannon Sharpe
Did I? Oh, did I?
Uncle Joe
YouTube.
Shannon Sharpe
Look, I would like. Hey, I would like Reggie in a. In a clump.

Shannon Sharpe
Get him, get. Should I get him?
Uncle Joe
Hey yo, you too little to play linebacker, man.
Shannon Sharpe
Man, look here. And then my cousin, I got a baton. Ocho Joe, four by eight. It was third leg, four by four. He probably had me about 15, about
Uncle Joe
15 meters came and got him.
Shannon Sharpe
I got that baton to 4 by 4. I said cuz I'm coming. I just pace it, I just pace it. Three at 300. No, probably back at two at the two. I was about five yards behind him. Did I pass? I said nah, I don't want to spend no extra energy. We came out, we came out of turn, we came out the curve. I said, I told you I'm the best sharp man. Coach hall came out that thing. Sucker. Don't you ever do that. You'll get us disqualified.
Uncle Joe
Them rules.
Shannon Sharpe
In fact, that's the only two times coach hall has ever raised this boy. Said me only two times.
Uncle Joe
Them rules and track strict boy.
Shannon Sharpe
And yeah, but I was, I was dead ass wrong. But that was my, that was my, his granddad and my granddad were brothers. So he, he, Monty and Everett, they went to Reedsville. Me and my brother obviously went to Glen.
Uncle Joe
Yeah.
Shannon Sharpe
Now once we graduated, I think like a couple years after we graduated, they merged the two schools. Had they done that when my brother and I and was in school, ain't no telling how many state championships we'd have in football. Not basketball because we didn't have really big tall, really tall guys. But football and track, you, I mean you probably wouldn't be on a. There would be no freshmans on the relay teams. You'd probably have to wait till you're a junior or senior to be on the relay team games. At least. At least. Oh, we had some guys that could run, but it was split up, man. No, in football, yeah, you ain't start. Ain't no freshman starting.
Joe Johnson
Hey, ain't nothing like going to track meets, boy.
Shannon Sharpe
Hey, dude, like my brother probably would have been the only freshman that would have started because he started as a freshman at quarterback. But my brother ran like 10, 500 meters and they ran, they ran the veer so he got the edge. It was over.
Uncle Joe
Hey, speaking of track, I got a question. We've been looking at all these, these, these, these track athletes in high school and all. You see them fast times running 98 and I'm confused. No allows. Ran a 98 today. So you trying to tell me. Yeah, these high schoolers would be able to keep up. No allows. Even though he doesn't catch up to the field until them last 30 meters something, right?
Shannon Sharpe
Well, what's happening, Ocho, is that some of these times are win aided. They're getting a plus three, plus four, plus five mile an hour wind. The only allowable. You only allow +2. So anything over +2, no allows ran that with a. I think he had an allowable win. But yeah, these times are getting fast. I mean, Ocho, you just look at the times that. I mean the tracks, the spikes that they're using. You just saw Sally just run a sub to. They had two guys go sub two hours in a marathon, 26.2 miles. Two guys and another guy run 210, 215.
Joe Johnson
The boys ain't. Hey, them boys ain't running with that leather, man. Them boy got carbon fiber in their shoes.
Shannon Sharpe
Yes. And they got the super fast mondo tracks now, Ocho. It. I mean with the tracks that they got now and the technology that they got now, Usain Bolton is private. Usain boat probably gonna go nine, four.
Joe Johnson
That's moving.
Shannon Sharpe
Yeah, yeah. I mean I just saw a guy from South Africa just run a 4666 split. 4660 split. He ran by Lasi Le Tobogo from Botswana. Botswana and Tobogo. He ran 4303 when he and Rob Benjamin went head to head at the Paris Olympics. Oh, Joe, you remember that? That dude went by Tobogo like he was standing still. And Tobogo, Tobogo is a, is a low 44, maybe even a. A 43 in the open four. And he went by him like he was standing still. These guys different now, Ocho. These guys, I mean, these kids run, Ocho. This girl, you see this 14 year old girl ran 22. Ran 22.
Uncle Joe
72
Shannon Sharpe
damn girls running 11, 11, 5 at 13, 14 years old. All right, it's time to play a fade presented by prize picks.

Shannon Sharpe
Hey, hey. Dylan Harper will have it more or less than five rebounds. More or less?
Joe Johnson

Shannon Sharpe
The one thing we talked about this last night, the Guardian. What? Vassell Harper, Castle, they rebound.
Joe Johnson
They do, they gain rebound. You're absolutely right.
Shannon Sharpe
I'm going more. Also, Jalen Brunson more or less than 1.5. Made 3 point.
Joe Johnson
I ain't gonna lie to y'. All. It's hard to bid against Jalen Brunson now. I ain't gonna lie now. You okay There ain't nobody needs you to chime in here. The boy, the boy been proved me wrong. All posters. I ain't gonna lie. I. I probably go more on. I think he can make two.
Uncle Joe
Yep.
Shannon Sharpe
I'm going with you. Julian Champagne, he will have more than two and a half made three baskets. More or less than two and a half.
Joe Johnson
I'm saying more. Champenny played great against the Knicks. I don't know if y' all know, but during the season this year, hell, he had a game. We had like 10, 11 threes against the Knicks and he, he been shooting. He been shooting the letter off that thing. I'm gonna say more.
Shannon Sharpe
I agree. Landry Shammit will have at least seven and a half points, more or less.
Joe Johnson
Where it gets tricky.
Uncle Joe
Yeah, well, he has 16 the first game, Joe.
Joe Johnson
And it get tricky though, Ocho, I
Shannon Sharpe
think gonna have that Joe, man, that joker, that Joker done made, he was 12 or 13 coming into the three point and I think he made what he made three or five threes or three or six threes yesterday. So that man shooting 15, 15 or 21 from.
Joe Johnson
I know he's shooting, so. So if I'm saying, Antonio, I gotta eliminate some of these guys around Brunson and Cat. I can't, I, I can't. I can't let Shannon beat Me, that's what I'm thinking. So I know they gonna try to cut his water off. That's why I say it's tricky. What y' all thinking, man. Y'. All. We going more.

Shannon Sharpe
Yeah, I ain't gonna lose. Hey Joe, you know what? Joe, look at this. I know you ain't never seen one of these. This all Madden. Once upon a time this was as important as an all program because if John man, you play, you get this. You go ask any guy that got this. This is a. You remember Jerry Ball? Jerry Ball played with the Detroit Lions. He had a company called Icebox and he made these. So I wouldn't have put up one of this if you don't like this one. This is a leather one.
Joe Johnson
I like, I like that, I like that. What you mean you wouldn't have put a what?
Shannon Sharpe
Hold on, hold on.
Joe Johnson
Hey. Oo he.
Shannon Sharpe
Or maybe you like the letterman jacket.

Joe Johnson
I like that one. I like that too. I like that too.
Shannon Sharpe
And you know, I know you like
Joe Johnson
I had to come over there and go shopping. What?
Shannon Sharpe
So I'm just saying, you know, like I said Ocho, I don't know if you ever played in front of John man, but Madden used to have to see you play in order to get that. And they used to get these trophies. Man, that trophy was so damn heavy. My brother got. My brother was all pro. My John man loved my brother. One of the few guys that had his sleeves up in Green Bay anytime And I remember the first time I made it, I think it was 94 and then I made it 96, 97, 98 and then I went went to the Ravens. I made it in 2000 so I was a five time all Madden. But it was as important, it was more important than Pro Bowl. You would much rather make all men than make the Pro Bowl. Much, much rather make all all make John man team because John man was the end all when John Manning pass summer all like Lord, first of all, you game of the week. Yeah. You know, hey you, you the game of the week. And he come that Shannon Sharp could play in any era. Oh man.

Fox should take a Billups tight role. Fox has proven to be clutch in the fourth quarter during his career. He just needs to manage the game and be the closer.
Joe Johnson

Joe Johnson

Shannon Sharpe
Hey. Oh, we'll be gonna try to. Man, do you know what they cuz think about it? The US Team was on in Paris on trench soil and took the gold. You don't think France would like nothing more on American soil in 28 than to take that gold back? And we've won. And we've won the goal every year since we wanted 8, 12, 16, 20, and 20. 20. What? 21, 24. So we got five straight.
Joe Johnson
What you talking about?
Shannon Sharpe
They want that. Please tell me you saw Ocho nightcap sign on Waffle House. Will we ever get a segment where we meet the team as Jordan, etc for Q A? I mean, you probably see Jordan. You probably seen Jordan. Y' all probably seen. Ash didn't know what you was looking at, but Ash do not like the camera. Ash has always wanted to be behind the camera. So probably not Jordan. You guys have seen Jordan. You see Jordan all the time. Because everybody that sees me in the airport, you've never seen me. Probably 90 of the time, Jordan's gonna be with me because we're going somewhere to take. Yeah. And even when I come to Atlanta, that's the only thing. Because, like, sometimes I come a day earlier and he comes a day later. But like, when I'm going to LA or I'm going. Nah, you gonna. You're gonna see Jordan. Big three. Here's a scenario. Y' all on vacay in the Maldives with y' all ladies on a day. A day party. Boat. Boat. Power goes out one mile from shore. Coast guard is six hours away. What's y' all next move.

Shannon Sharpe
Once. Once he was bought in, like, yeah, I want to be a part of this. It was a no brainer for us, but we just had to make sure that's something that he wanted. And we didn't want to force that. We didn't want to make him feel like, man, Joe, you got to take this opportunity because if you don't, we're gonna hire somebody else. No, we weren't. It was gonna be okay. No show. It was gonna be Uncle Nocho for the next year, the next year after that. Because if Joe says, you know, hey, I kind of want to do the same role that I'm doing, you know, at X, Y and Z. But he's like, hey, I want to be a part of this.
Joe Johnson
I want. Hey, whatever you need, let me know. Yeah.
Shannon Sharpe
So it was a really a no brainer.
Joe Johnson
I appreciate it too. And I really want to thank the fans because they. They've been petitioned for this for so long, bro. You know what I mean?

And the thing you know, also, if you didn't see and you've been blind all your life, it's cool. But if you had your sight and lose it or if you've been deaf your whole life or had your hearing and lose it, I think that is different. Like, if you've never had sight, you don't really know what it's like to see. So you just. Everything. All the other senses are become heightened. Your sense of taste, your sense of smell, your hearing become the touch. Everything's become heightened to. To compensate. But, man, I mean, you got to be. Hit that Ray Charge. You have to feel them.
