Okay, that don't scare nobody, bro. I keep telling you that. Hold it. You gonna be going to tap and do all this shit. Okay, okay, okay, okay. Only thing I'm a tap is your face. How you like that now? I mean, make President Trump sign an executive order before you let him go. Hold it. You know he ain't gonna do that. No, he's not in your weight division, dog. Huh? He's. That's what I tried to tell him. You heard me. Take care of our weight, man. Anybody say hunk or hill. Okay, say it one more time. He's not in your weight division. He put his pants on one leg at a time, just like me. He bleed just like me. Yeah, but his pants are like 42s. Nah, that's fine. That's fine. You don't. He don't put it. You put both. Y'all gonna learn. Y'all gonna learn both of your legs at the same time. Y'all gonna learn legs. Look at that man. Leg. Look at your leg. Hey, dog, I want to involve them a little bit. Can y'all ask some questions or something? Yes. Yeah, let's let them ask questions. Nick, we ain't got the mic yet. Hold on. Where's Jordan? Jordan? Yell it. Just yell it. No, we got Mike set up right here, and Jordan. Yeah. Come up there and ask the question. They come back. Right there. There's Jordan right here. Who got a question for the panel? Jordan got the mic right there. There you go. Yeah, it's good. Oh, yeah. Who's got the first one? There's right. Right there. Right there. Jordan, can you see? I think what you say? I can see. I did. Evo. You just need to see Chad. You don't need to see out there. I watch. What do you say? What is. Oh, he want a shot. He want to. He want a shot of the. I got a question for. Go ahead, ma'am. Yeah. My name is Christopher Alcindor, and I got a question. I wanted to know how does it feel to be the most highest rated podcast in the world? I'm going to tell you right now, it feels great. You know What I'm saying, I've been doing this for so long and to finally get the recognition that I came here to get and I've been searching for. I mean, it feels unbelievable, you know, I want to thank my Lord and savior Jesus Christ. Oh, I'm sorry. Go ahead. It feels great. It feels great to accomplish things with someone, you know, to have Chad by my side doing Nightcap. Club Shay Shay. With CJ is my producer. Ash and her team does a great job with Nightcap. And to have my guy that comes on from time to time, even though he gives me a hard time. That's why I stopped calling you. Because all you want to do is Joan. No, you know you're getting the truth when you call me. I want the truth. You know you got the truth when you call me. I know I don't want the truth sometimes. But you know what? You respect it. That's what I like about it, because you listen and you respect it. But it's, It's. It's unbelievable the amount of support that you guys have given me through all the years. And when people say it's an overnight success. Did you not see those 10 years that I spent on CBS? Did you not see those seven years that I spent on Fox? That's 17 years ain't no overnight success. Yeah, 17 years is always overnight. Oh, well. But I thank you guys from the bottom of my heart because without you, there is no me. Yeah. There is no Ocho. You know what, Jake? You just had to find your format. Yes, we thought. I don't, I don't think you all know this, but I was on cbs. Then when I left, he came on cbs, but it wasn't a format conducive to his success. Because when you're doing television in the NFL, you only get 15 to 30 seconds to exhaust your thought. And he's a thinker. He needs to paint a picture so you can see it and you can hear and you can understand it. And 15, 30 seconds ain't enough time for him. So when he got on another platform that he was able to develop his thought and you understand how smart and intelligent he is and how quick, quick witted he is, you got a chance to really meet the real Shannon Sharpe. And I'm glad y'all gave him opportunity. So you need to applaud yourself. Absolutely. Hold on just a second.

Learn more@health.Amazon.com before we go any further, Jake Paul and Canelo Alvarez are finalizing a contract to box in Las Vegas. Ocho. The proposed bout is speculated to take place May 3, 2025 in Las Vegas. Potentially coincided with Cinco de Mayo weekend, a traditional date for major boxing events. Promoters anticipate that the fight could generate revenue, with estimating suggesting the purse around $200 million, driven by pay per view sales and ticket revenue. Ocho, are you surprised that Canelo would rather fight Jake Paul than Benavidez? I think Canelo's at a point in his career where he can pick and choose who he wants to fight. He's earned the right to be able to do that. Fighting Benavidez is dangerous. Fighting Benavidez is dangerous. I think right now the Mexican monster would probably beat Canelo based on where Canelo is as far as in his career is concerned. And Benavidez is hungry. Yes, Benavidez is hungry and has an advantage in that fight. So I understand Canelo is riding off into the sunset, making as much money as. As possible. You know, being able to make 20 million fighting Jake Paul as opposed to taking much less to fight. It ain't no risk with Jake Paul. Well, I mean, it's a win in a sense, especially financially. Yeah. I mean, potentially 100 million, $150 million. What happened to Bud? He's supposed to fight Bud. I know. They, they cancel that. They stopped that, he said. I mean, to be able to fight a guy that's really not a professional boxer. Yeah, he's. He's better than, say, it's more. It's more of an exhibition, though. It ain't no exhibition with Canelo. I mean, you know what I'm trying. I'm trying to say, but I mean, it's. That's just like what you trying to do. This ain't gonna be no exhibition. This finna get that work. He finna get that work. And I want y'all to keep. Keep. Keep doubting me. Keep talking trash. You keep putting your little mean face on. What? Yeah, look, that man said Paulo Cree was an exhibition. Who, Apollo Cree? Oh, yeah, yeah. Drago. That's a movie. Oh, okay. It's real life. All right, well, look, we're gonna have Debo back on in two months to see where he's at in his training.

I'm a big 49ers fan. I want to know, hey, what super bowl was the most special. Special to both of you gentlemen being that you won multiple. The first one. First one. The first one. Why you ain't asked me? My bad, dog. The first one. Yeah, I think the first one because there's nothing like the first because you can't replicate that the second time you won back to back. I won back to back. Won a third one in Baltimore, but there's nothing like that. First time. Y'all remember your first kids? You remember your first everything. You got women sitting by their man, and they weren't the first one. And you said, okay, it is what it is. But I'm saying. But you remember that. You can't say that. They look straight. Y'all just look straight ahead, fellas. But you, you remember. You remember that first one, the adulation? Because that's what, you know, that's what you really play for. I mean, the money's gonna come, and you make a lot of money if you play this game. You know, if you play this game, you want the two M's, you want money and memories, and you want as many, as many you can in both categories. Yeah. And so for me, it was the first. That's good. Good answer. Well, I won. I won a Super bowl at Madden 22. What was it like, huh? What was it like? The confetti falls on the screen. Congratulations. Appreciate you, bro. Check. Hey, what's up, y'all? So, first and foremost, to the beautiful people in the room. Happy Black History Month. Yes. All right. All right. And thank you for the Rose Sparks coupons.

I don't really have a question for you guys, but I am a local, Ken. I am actually a medical student down the street at Tulane University School of Medicine. Congrats. Right? All right. I will be graduating in May. I'll be the first physician in my family, and I want to go into sports medicine and Coach prime, the way you have taken this mantle as a coach and making our young men more than just athletes, bringing them into this professional light. You have truly inspired all of us and just me. And I just wanted to say I would love to be the team doctor for your. Whatever team you're on. And so here you go. Shoot your shot. Shoot your shot, man. I'll clap all you want. And everyone feel pressure. And I'm not asking for a handout or anything because I come. I come from a praying family and we speak things into existence. So I just want to let you know, Coach Prime, I look forward. I look forward to working with you one day. Hey, man, I like that. I like that. Jordan. Jordan, hold on. And now we got. Coming to the stage. We're gonna hold on from Q A for a minute. Now coming to the stage, Louisiana's own New Orleans on Master P. We gotta be here. We Got my dog here you go behind. We got my face. Did you. Did you see when I. When I played Body about it in the meeting room? I had to educate the youngsters. They didn't. They didn't know nothing about it. About it? Come on, man. Yeah, yeah. So we started up in the morning, like whenever I walk in, we play some kind of music. And I had to educate him about. We bought it by. We bout it back. Pete, let me ask you this. Yes. You built this empire on music and you branched off to do other things. What was the mindset when you started this empire? Well, you know, I grew up in the projects, your projects out here, and I ain't had none. I live with my grandparents and she had 12 kids. Me and my brother made 14. I just wanted to make it out together. I wanted to give my grandmother a house one day. And that just pushed me. It pushed me and it pushed me. And I. I said, whatever they could do, we could do it. And so ever since after then, I just been building and grinding and hustling and went from selling no records to over 100 million records independently. But you were one of the first to have a distribution deal that was in your favor. You also was one of the first to have entrepreneurship that wanted to do things outside of music. How did you develop that mindset, though? I mean, I guess like anything else like this, man, I guess when you. When you're hungry and you're poor, you told me. I think it's funny because you always gotta have a why. My why was I ain't had nothing. I gotta make it up outta here. A lot of people was dying young. A lot of people didn't get opportunities that I was able to get. And I'm like, I'm gonna make the best out of it. There's gonna be no limit to my success. And that's what I call my company. No limit. You know, B and I had an experience together. I mean, he's at the top of his game. And you talk about an athlete, you know, you talking about two sports. But this man was multi, multi. Just understand with the talent. So he came to Dallas to play. They had to travel for the Mavericks. Yeah. And when I tell you he had it, he had it, right? So they called me over there to holl at Pete because Pete still had that hood in it. Now, what I mean by that is he, you know, he went to practice and, yeah, like, you can't go to practice deep. You can't do that, dog. Like, he's like, man, I'm giving them bookings, and I'm doing this, I'm doing that, man. What's going on? I say, dog, tell me about what happened, man. You know, we was running wind sprints, and I was one of them. I said, you can't do that. Yeah. And I was doing it. You can't do that. You know, the stars that they have here, you got to let them make it. Yeah. Because this is their team. Do your thing. But you got to let them make you not a politician. Absolutely. It's politics and everything about it. Right. And that's what makes the trailblazers. Trailblazers. We gotta think outside the box. Yeah. I've always thought outside the box. When I was telling, you know, Dion, when I was in Dallas. Right. It was tough because I know I was with it, too. I handled it, I think. So. I grew up with Steve Nash, so you know me. I'm already on him. Like, man, Steve, like, man, you need to chill out. But, you know, that's the way we was raised down here. It was like we were just raised tough. Like, a lot of kids today don't have to go through what we had to go through. And at that time, New Orleans was the murder capital of the world, and it was, like, a privilege to be able to go outside and play basketball. And so I always was just tough when I played. And then I was, like, one of the fastest ones on the team. I'm number one in all the drills. I'm thinking I'm in. Right. But like Dion said, that don't matter. I mean, we got to get this man a round of applause for what you did in college football, my brother, because this is what I want to tell y'all, right? This man actually changed the whole game of college football because they never wanted to see us do what you was able to do, bro. And. And it's incredible, because now when I walked into this man locker room, I was like, man, hold up. I went. They got a barber. They got all this stuff. I'm like, man, this is crazy. This man didn't really change the culture right here. This was the hood for real. It was love, which is, like, you see everybody having fun, and I think the difference is a lot of players want to play for you because they want that type of atmosphere. Yes, sir. And I appreciate you for coming to support it. Yeah, man. You got, like, people like our sidelines in Boulder. You've been there. Shake it. It looks like the BET Awards, everybody. Hey, Pete, listen, you've launched everything, bro. From Music to food products, even the basketball league. And you've been able to build generational wealth. What advice do you have to the young artists and young entrepreneurs looking to do some of the same things you've done, especially those right here from your hometown. But first, y'all put your trust in faith and go. That's the most important thing. And don't be afraid to put the work in. Because they say work without faith is dead. And so a lot of people think, oh, I'm gonna just pray and God, no, you got to really put the work in. You gotta grind, you gotta go to work, and then God gonna give you all those blessings if you do right and you have integrity. Because one thing that I learned in this, in this world, this game of life, you know, you have to have integrity because that's doing the right thing when nobody's looking. So most of us only want to do the right thing when somebody's looking. So when you do the right thing and nobody's looking, you're going to be all right. Let me ask you this. Had you made the NBA, would you have still been as hungry to do other things outside of sports? Yes. Because everything I do, I do it because I love it. I don't do it for money. So you got to have a passion and a purpose. And so everything that I do, I've never done nothing for money. I'll tell you right here in New Orleans, right? Y'all know me as the ice cream man, but I started out as the popcorn boy selling popcorn at the Superdome. And when I met Tom Benson, I said, bro, I'm gonna be rich. And he said, yeah, you gonna be rich. You gotta take care of your business and do what you gotta do. I said, yes, sir. And who would ever thought a 15 year old kid that didn't have nothing, that I was gonna be able to be doing what I'm doing now? And to be able to have a sustainability, there's nothing but God with all the things that you've accomplished. I mean, music and snacks and real estate and this. What endeavor haven't you tackled yet that you. That piece that. You know what that's next? I mean, building family brands. Because when you look at all these big companies, these are family last names. So I started Miller Family Foods because I want to be able to bridge that wealth gap and be able to pass that generational wealth down from generation to generation. So being able to build a family name and brand is so important. If you look at Kellogg's, look at all these different companies. These are these people last name, and so I don't think they imagine that we could do something like that. Right. Go ahead. I'm just thankful, man, that I've been knowing this brother for I don't know how many years. And you've been consistent, my good brother. I mean, you've been consistently who you are, how you get down on stage, off stage, and you've always tried to help another brother. I've never seen you in the bull jump, trying to put nobody down or trying to clown nobody. You've always tried to bring us up. Not only us, your family, your kids, your loved ones, everybody. And I applaud you for that, because I know you had to walk away from some junk you really didn't want to walk away from. You took the high road, and I appreciate you for that. Yes. Thank you, my brother. Mean, it's. It's tough when you. When you grow up in property, you come from the streets and. And you. You out there to change your life. You could get tricked out of your position. I know a lot of these football players and. And, you know, entertainers. We get tricked out of our position because we really come from the hood, and we. We really could fight, too. So it's like sometime you be like, man, you serious? Like, why is you playing? Right? But that's where, you know, you got to take a couple. You got to take a couple deep breaths because you really know what you're dealing with. But this world now, with the social media and the Internet, they're going to try you no matter what. Like, think about it now. You seeing people catching cases for somebody just saying something about it. So that's why I'm saying it's a. It's really a spiritual warfare. And so my thing is, that's why we got to keep praying, because you can't stop somebody from saying something about you. Now, you know, it could be straight false, but now you got to either answer it or you gotta not say nothing. And then somebody gonna say, well, you must be guilty, because he ain't say nothing. Yes. And then if you say something, man, you got too much money. Why are you talking about that? Yeah. Hit dog or Holler. Yeah, so it's like. Yeah, but it's the truth, though, right, y'all? Yes, it's absolutely true. I'm gonna tell y'all something. I'm gonna tell y'all something. That's. That's incredible, right? Dion, you changing the way we think about coaches. People want to play for you because a Lot of these coaches think in tradition, they don't really understand us. I'm talking about black men that's in these locker rooms that comes from broken homes, come from all these different. It's a different way. You. You have to treat everybody different. You right. I don't care if you got 100 people on your team. You know how to go walking. Some people you could scream at. Some people you got to talk nice to. That's right. Some people you gotta give a hug to. My coach always say, you treat them all fair, but you don't treat them all the same. Nah, you can't. It's just like your family. You got kids. You can't. You can't treat them all the same because you gotta. You want to give them that love, but in certain ways, you got to give all of them that love for them to actually get it. Pete, let me ask you this. Hold on, hold on. Go ahead. My turn, man. Go ahead. I want to talk about music. Yeah. I want to talk about the music industry right now. Yeah. As opposed to the way it was the music industry during the no limit heyday. Right? Yeah. I want to know your current take on the state of music industry today as opposed to how it was then. Yeah. What you think is different? I think. I think, to be honest with you. Right. What I love about now is so many young people making money. Yeah. But for us, we never was angry because if you got a lot of money, you shouldn't be angry. I never was upset if I got money. Right. Like, why so many beefs and all this stuff? It's like. Cause you got all this money, bro. We was trying to make it out the project, not go backwards to the project. There's a big difference. I think this industry now is they trying to prove how tough they is. We never had to do that because our goal was to make it out right. And I just think that this generation is dying young. We wanted to live and get older. Ain't nothing wrong with getting older. That means you did something right in life. Yes. And so I didn't. I think that I tell people all the time, Right. It's what you invest in your time in. So I feel like this generation is investing their time into the wrong things. Everybody have 24 hours is what you do with your 24 hours. So if you're gonna invest five, 10, 15 years into going to prison, why not invest four years going to college or building a business? There's a lot made about the super bowl halftime show. You're from New Orleans. I'm sure you'd have loved to perform on that. How do you feel that the NFL should choose. Should select the halftime show? Man, everybody up here know, let's be real, The NFL gonna do what they want to do for sure. So we need to go on our own things and create our own stuff if that's what we gonna think of, we're gonna have to listen to what they say. So I. I really don't get involved in it. I mean, we know Lil Wayne is probably one of the best artists in the world, and he deserved that. Yes. But we also know that Kendrick Lamar then did all this stuff, and that's what they want, but what could we do about it but accepting it? We got to salute the brother because it ain't him that's making the decisions. Right. It's them. And so I'm not going to not say that Kendrick deserve it. Yeah, he deserve it. But this culture down here is so different. If the NFL really knew that before they made the decisions, they wouldn't be getting the flack that they get. This is the problem I have with that. Pete, you. You 100. Correct. But when we do what you just said we should do and have our own thing, we don't support it. Yes. Nope. Yes. We. We don't support it. Well, see, think about it. That's what they do, though, D. They support them. But we don't. We don't just talk about in this Black History Month, what are we doing? We don't do that. Let me tell you why. The last several concerts I've been to, I've been to a Wayne concert. Yeah. I think it was Snoop. And I forgot who was the third. 90% of the folks in the audience was not y'all. The last time I looked in Colorado at the football game, 95% of people in the stands are not y'all. Yeah. Every time I look around, it ain't y'all. But whenever something go down, y'all got something to say. Yeah. So you can get mad all you want. I'm just telling you straight up, I got your back. I love you, and I'm down with you, and I'm gonna fight for you to the end. But if we want to get out of what we want to get out, we got to support one another. You know what? We got to be able to communicate in love and be able to tell the truth, because I'm gonna tell y'all this. The problem is right here, right. If we're gonna bridge the wealth gap. Right we only make product for black people. Other cultures make products for everybody and they build business and brands for everybody. So I'm a type of person, right? I'm not prejudiced. I just love being around good people, whether they're white, black, Asian, Latino. That's right. And then it don't matter to me. I love good people. Now the thing about it is it's the bad people that's making the noise. And. And every time something happened, think about it. You say, when you look at billionaires in the world, we could count the black billionaires on one hand. So how are we going to control anything? And when you look at CEOs of these Fortune 500 companies, we make a tenth of 1%. And so we don't want to see us get to that level. So then we can't even take care of the community because we don't have enough of us running these big corporations. So when you look at Amazon, you look at Walmart, you look at Target, you look at all these big Fortune 500 companies at the top, you don't see us at the bottom. At the entry levels, you see us. And so we have to change that. And I think that's what this about. It's tough for us because think about it, right? Even the top players in the NFL, even look at the thing that they did in the basketball and NBA this week. You took Luka and you took Anthony Davis. They didn't even know that they was being traded. Think about no matter how much money they make, and they could make 200, 300, 400, $500,000, but the person who own these teams, they switching them around like chess players. And we can't do nothing about it because we don't own nothing. Is nobody look like us at the top of that level to say, hey, this is what we need to do. And so we have to change that mindset. It's just a mindset, y'all. Like coach say, we living like crabs in the barrel. We trying to stop each other from getting to the top, because as soon as some one of us sneak out, we trying to outdo each other, then to say, how can I help everybody else get out? And so that's what my life has been about, creating future millionaires. I feel like I don't want to be at the top by myself. Amen, Shannon. You know, we'll have some deep discussions and we have some real ones, right? And when you go into your bull jump and people coming at you, who are those people? Look like me. But the the reason it bothers you is what? Because you do so much for us, and then we attack you. That's why it bothers you. And I'm sitting up there saying, dog, look at, man, forget that. Keep on doing what you do. Keep on going out there being a blessing, and keep starting. I mean, it's nothing that's gonna stop you. But you right. But you got to keep on doing your thing. But let me tell y'all something. It hurts us. Well, we kicking butt for y'all. Yeah. And y'all don't support us. Are you coming at us? That bothers us. That really does bother us, and we want y'all. Ain't nobody sitting up here. They don't want you to come up. It's nobody sitting up here together. Spirit. Yeah. In the. In their body. It's nobody in here that don't want you to just rise up to the top of nobody. We all. That's why we so darn blessed. Because you want. We want y'all to come up. Well, to be honest with you, coach, that means y'all slowing the process up, because we can't change the past, but we can change the future. And if we. We have that mindset to help and love each other, we gonna be all right. And so for me, I'm gonna tell y'all straight up. I'm from. I'm from New Orleans. It fuel me when they get mad at me or don't. They don't like something, say, I can't do something. I'm getting out there and go get it. To be honest, that makes me go even harder. You know what I'm saying? I just think that I put my choice in faith. God, I don't put it in mass. I don't even care about what somebody say. And I'm. I'm gonna keep grinding, keep hustling, keep going. Every time they try to stop me, say, hey, Pete, you can't go this way. Okay, I'm going through the window. I might climb through the chimney, but no, to me, it's just like, maybe I ain't taking notes, right? Be honest. I done been through it all. So I feel like God spared my life, and I'm here for a reason. I want to help the next generation. That's what my life is about, helping the next generation. Thank you. Let's give it up for New Orleans on Master P. You see, that's it. Shannon got on some Louis Vuitton. Tim, I see you wanted to do Shake. I ain't know there was Louis Vuitton yet on, huh?

Drawing up like, wait, Polioska, I see you. Don't you act. There you go. Thank you. Thank you. All right. How we doing? Doing good, coach. It's good to see you. Looking good, man. Thank you. Try great. I had to get all that off. You look good. Thank you. You look darn good. Go ahead. You can take it off time. Go ahead. You want to start it up? You want me? Well, you look good. It's obvious. Let's talk about the obvious. Yeah, go. I mean, what's really going on? Yeah, just interesting year, you know, kind of Coach Belichick and I do a little coaching on YouTube, which was fun. Right. Wrote a TV show that, you know, that we got to get out and kind of do some fundamentals, all that stuff that we like to talk about. So, you know, it was a lot of fun. I got to see Chad every week, which is great. Get his McDonald's every single day. Make sure we get you fed right. Absolutely. Coaching, what's. What's next as far as coaching is concerned? Is there anything that you like to do? Is there anything on the table from a coaching perspective? Yeah. You know, right now I'm kind of just. I'm. I'm trying to be dad. You know, I got three kids and I spent last year in Philly, and that was great. My family was not with me, and my oldest son, he went from like here to here between Thanksgiving and Christmas, and I was like, I kind of. I need to be home. So, you know, I'm doing this, which is great. You know, get to hang out and talk football, which I love to do, and get to see a lot of people that I haven't seen in a long time. So it's a lot of fun. Coaches at heart. Before you go, MVP tonight. Yeah. They gave it to Josh Allen. Yeah. With the numbers and the stats that Lamar Jackson put up this season. Yeah. Your thoughts? You know, I'm going to go the Other direction I'm going. Saquon Barkley. Mvp, Saquon Barkley. I mean, this guy was doing stuff. I saw. I sat with my son and he ran, you know, defensive guys. Right. So we appreciate this. Right. So he ran, and I saw him do a reverse leapfrog over another human. A. Like a professional athlete. Yeah. And I looked at my son, I said, you will never see that again. That is the most amazing thing I've ever seen. And I think his. Yeah, I mean, he has been unbelievable. Right. And I think everything that he's brought and you guys can appreciate. You guys are great. You guys are. I mean, obviously, like, I'm humbled to be even sitting with. You guys are unbelievably great players. And you all did this on your teams. And we know what great players look like. Right. Those are the guys that elevate everyone around them. You know, they're the guys that take good players and make them great players, the guys that are average players and make them good players and bring that team together. And I think he's done that in Philly. I think his humility and his excitement, his general joy that he has to watch his team succeed. I mean, I love it. I love that. Coach, how do you build trust with a player? Because they say, you know, this is a player's league, and the players seemingly are getting younger and younger, and it's different. I mean, you can't coach players like they could in time. We talk about this all the time. You can't coach players like we got coached when we was in the league and when we were growing up, so. But how do you build that trust with players? Yeah, you know, I kind of look at, like I'm on, like my fourth generation of NFL player. You know, my old heads, when I coached linebackers was like, Teddy Brusky, Mike Vrabel Jr. Seattle, Willie McGinnis, Roosevelt Colvin, Larry Izzo, Chad Brown. My room, I'd walk in my room. I wasn't sure if we were going to coach or fight. Like, I didn't know because it was like alpha dog central. But I think the biggest thing that everybody wants, they just. They want to know that you're going to help them get better. They want to know that you're trying to do everything you can to elevate their play and do everything you can to, you know, grow them as young men. And I think that's what we got to do. And, you know, look, you got to make sure you go in and tell them how much you appreciate Them how much you respect what they do. You know, you guys are different. Like, I didn't. I can't play. So, you know, I can coach, but I'm not in between those white lines, you know, So I need to do everything I can do. And this is what kept me up late, to make sure that you can go out and perform your best. And that's why I didn't sleep every week, because I was like, there's no way. I'm gonna let you know. You go in between those white lines and do everything that you do at an unbelievable level and risk everything that you risk and make sure that I didn't give you every tool possible I could to make you be successful. Because I just want to see the joy in your face when you get that done right. Sunday, we got a big game. Super Bowl 59. Yes. You've been around the game of football for a very long time. Yes. Officer side of the ball, defensive side of the ball. If I'm a bet man, who I put my money on. Yeah, I. I am. I am. Eagles all the way. I'll say this. So there's two teams right now in the NFL super bowl history that have had the number one defense and the NFL's leading rusher. Philadelphia is one right now. The other one was the 92 Cowboys, and they won. So, you know, look, defense wins championships. I'm on the couch with the defensive guy, so I'm okay. But, you know, I think this is where the. The defense comes through. And. And look, Kansas City, Andy Reid, Patrick Mahomes, like, those are. You know, those are guys keep me up late at night. But I like where Philly's at right now. I like their physicality, the toughness. I think it's going to be a great game. It's going to be a good one. How do you think, Coach? We just presented the NFL Coach of the Year together. How do you think Coach Belichick is going to do at the college level? Well, I'll tell you what. I know North Carolina is excited, and I know those kids are excited. I think those kids are going to be coached in a way that, you know, look, he's going to teach. He's going to take the extreme complex, and he's going to boil it all the way down into something really simple that they can understand. And he's going to prepare those guys for the next level, you know, and I think that'll be a tremendous, amazing opportunity for those guys to learn from him. I just told him when we were just Chit chatting. I said, coach, I saw that you went on the road and you went to home visits. As you know, I don't do home visits. But he said. He said, I've been on the road for a minute. Yeah. So he. I just. It's just hard for me to think about Coach Belichick doing home visits with kids in high school. That is crazy. I mean, imagine you're, you know, you're. That you're in that home, and right comes. Here comes Coach Belichick walking through the door. So, you know, that's got to be a great experience for all of them. That's dope. Coach, thanks for joining us. Yeah, thanks so much. Appreciate it. Thank you. Thanks so much. Ah, you go. That's perfect. Y'all good? Hey, guys, Coming to the stage, next, colleague, good friend of mine, Stephen A. Smith. I'm swinging on it. Where's Stephen A. I need a job. I'm swinging on it. You. You can work with me, huh? I got a job for you. What you want me to do? Receiver. You want to be the receiver coach? Assistant. Where I can come coach in Colorado? Yeah. What's the pay? What's the job? What you need me to do? A lot. If the money right, I'll be there. Can you teach what you did? Oh, that's a good one. That's a way. I don't know if they got feet like this, but I can teach. What's Stephen A. You asked a question you had. You talking about you want a job? He asked you a question. Can you repeat what you did? He asked me, can I teach what I did. Have you seen somebody be able to do what I did back then yet? I seen some people with good feet. Not quite like yours. Well, what did. You were special. I'm gonna give it to you special. There go your answer. Well, maybe the people that have feet, like you weren't trying to teach it. Now the question is, can you teach? I could teach. I could teach. I just want to know to pay. I could be in Colorado tomorrow. I could do nightcaps on Boulder. You know what? We. We both could do nightcap from Boulder. Let's go. Yeah, I like that. I like that. I like how y'all. We good, huh? Oh, we good. Are we good? Yeah, y'all good? Y'all good? And now hold on, hold on, hold on. Coming to the stage, step like he a stripper or something. The way y'all calling. You see the wall? You see the wall? That's that money wall. What they do, baby? Hiring Good to see you. Yeah. Y'all hiring? Say what? I want to be on first. Shake. We got the people. Got the people here in front of you. So I want to get us off working out, too. My dog. Working what? What day? I want to make sure y'all hit us. What day can I join first take what day? You join first take what day? The day I tell you. Yeah. Okay, okay, okay. We getting somewhere. That's enough. All right. Is there anything you want to share? No, not yet. I'm good. Life is good. Life is good. I can't complain. It's good to see y'all. Thank y'all for coming out with my boys. It don't get no better than what they doing. And we know what the hell he been doing, so it's all good. I'm in the. I'm in good company tonight. We've been. We've been talking about this, and we've been going back and forth, right? Josh Allen won the mvp. Yep. Lamar Jackson was first team All Pro quarterback Y. Which is. I'm surprised. I'm shocked that it happened. What are your thoughts? I'm kind of glad Lamar didn't win it. For real. What you got? Let me explain. It's the setup. That's the setup. You got two league MVPs. Every other individual in NFL history who's had two league MVPs have won a Super bowl championship. Lamar, if you will be quiet and let me explain, I will make sure you understand my explanation. What I'm saying is, if he had won three, then the heat on him next year would have intensified even more, and we'd highlight his failures more instead of appreciating his greatness more. Josh Allen winning the mvp. Well, congratulations. Now what you gonna do? Because we gonna talk about you the same way we talked about Lamar Jackson now. Because now you are mvp. Where's your chip? And if we not gonna talk about him not having a chip, we can't do that to Lamar Jackson either. That's why I like it, but I don't love it. I understand it. I like it, but I don't love it. I understand your philosophy. I understand how you flip that. Brilliant. That's what I expect from you. But nevertheless, we can't look down the street and condemn a man about what may happen tomorrow and not applaud what he's done today. Because that man deserves his flowers right now. Regardless of what may happen tomorrow and how we think about him, he was the most valuable quarterback in the NFL. To his team, to our League to his offense. Am I right or wrong, Mr. Stephen A. Smith? I'll give that to you, but allow me to retort. We walked into this season and we looked at Baltimore and the acquisition of Derrick Henry, and we said, they're monsters. They gonna win the afc. We saw Josh Allen. He lost Stefan Diggs, he lost Gabe Davis. He had a rookie wide out in Keon Coleman. He didn't get Amari Cooper until the middle of the season. And he was balling out up until the last week of the season or so. Shannon and I, along with everybody else, was debating who was the mvp. We were leaning towards Lamar Jackson, but it wasn't like we had summarily dismissed Josh Allen because he had played on an elite level and he didn't have as much to work with. So you're absolutely right with what you're saying. If we're able to look at Lamar Jackson and say they don't need to discuss nobody else, because nobody else was even close. But we know that wasn't the case with Josh Allen because of the personnel that he was working with, the absence of expectations, how he had exceeded expectations, and because of that is why I feel the way that I feel looking at this game. Kansas City going for an unprecedented three peat. You got the Philadelphia Eagles that were here just two, just three years ago. This is the second time they're here in three years. We know what's at stake. We got Saquon, who had an unbelievable season, offensive offensive player of the year. You got Jalen Hurst, who played unbelievable, had to run turnover, and they end up losing that ball game. If you had to bet your money, who do you like in this game on Sunday? Well, you don't bet against Patrick Mahomes. You don't bet against Patrick Mahomes. However, if you want to roll the dice and take chances, because there's more money out there to get. If you take a risk, you look at Philly. Philly collectively is the better team. They are you looking up. And then we talk about Saquon Barkley, 2005 yards, Russian. He's been electrifying. But we didn't mention this enough. Do y'all know their offensive line averages 6ft 6, 300, like 28 pounds. Big boys up there. I mean, these brothers plug holes as wide as Broadway on a Sunday morning. If you can do that against Kansas City's defense, Philadelphia Eagles will win the championship. But I think you got to do that because Patrick Mahomes on the other side, you're gonna have to do that. In order to win this game. Hold on. He ain't really answered the question. Now, if you were a bed man, who you putting your money on? I would bet on Philly. I would take a chance to bet on Phil. Okay. But I recognize that I'm taking a change. But I was still better. Right? You, you said Patrick Mahomes several times. I like that. Since I got into this coaching realm, I look at coaches a lot differently. I have a lot more respect for the coaches than what they're doing. Andy Reid is unflappable. Andy Reid has never been, just flat out out coached in a one on one battle for it all. Andy Reid will have his team ready and prepared and he will have a few wrinkles up in sleeves for situational football like we hadn't seen before. So I know we talk about Patrick Mahomes, but Andy Reid plays a major role in this whole situation. And if it was coach, coach is going toe to toe, you know, Ain't no contest. There you go. Ain't no contest. I mean, I respect Sirianni, but he ain't no Andy Reid. There you go. Over the last year, we've seen you kind of get into politics. Yeah. We see you at 2%, 2 and a half, 3%. People are talking about Stephen A. Smith. He's resonating. What made you decide to say, you know what? I want to branch out into politics. I want to talk politics. I've been this way all my life. I was neutralized to some degree by my employers. First the Philadelphia Inquirer, then cnn, then Fox Sports, then espn. They wanted us, you know, the industry itself. And I've talked to you about this personally, Shannon. I told you the beauty of athletes, the greatness of this brother. The greatness of all three of y'all. What? The thing that you know, but you can't fully appreciate because you've never been constricted to that level, is that y'all have a level of freedom and independence that less talented individuals like myself that had to go through the maze of corporate America has to experience. And so it comes with restrictions. You're an employee, not an independent contractor. There's a health care plan that comes with it. That's the benefit. The hazard is that it has restrictions everywhere. You can't do this, you can't do that. You represent the brand, not just yourself. We want you pigeonholed here, we want you marginalized here, etcetera, etcetera. But what they didn't know about me is that all my life, I mean, as much As I love sports. Watching presidential debates was like a Super bowl to me. Watching a gubernatorial debate was like a Super bowl to me. I love the volleying back and forth. I love. I love having at least a speck of knowledge about the issues that affect us. You know, to me, I don't even consider it politics. I consider it social commentary. It ain't politics when I'm talking about the economy, healthcare, immigration, education, crime in the streets, etc. You know, that's real life issues that I deal. I'm from Hollis, Queens, New York City. I'm from the streets of New York. That's real life issues to me. And so when I see a bunch of people who don't look like me, who don't share my cultural identity, who don't have my experience, who don't walk the streets and haven't walked the streets, the way that I have, my attitude is, you might know the issues, but you don't know the true impact that it has on everyday people. And I'm one of those people. I don't give a damn what kind of success I have. I still roll back to Hollis, right? I still pull up at a White Castles. I still go in the park in New York City. I still. I am who I am. And so when the opportunity finally presented itself and I was able to branch out, it was courtesy. And this is where all of y'all play a role. Prime was an independent dude, always preached about independence. You came with Club Shay Shay. And then after that nightcap, and when y'all came about and y'all were doing your thing along with others like the Pivot and others, I said, hold on. You've been holding me back, holding me back, holding me back. These other fellas got their own platform. Well, I got my own now. I own and operated 100%. What's the problem? And they were like, we can't say anything. And so when I went there and did it, they were like, wait a minute, now you're doing sports. That's us. So we can't stop you from doing it. But we'll be damned if you gonna just have a sports show, right? Then this should be for us. I said, I don't want a sports show. And when I told them pop culture and entertainment and politics, they're like, go ahead. Because nobody thought that I would resonate because they. They didn't know. And so finally they said, oh, damn. He had the Situation Room. He on Hannity, he on msnbc, Rachel Maddow or somebody else. He's on Politico. He's on News Nation. What the hell is going on? And all I said in response was, here I come. Right? I told you I was coming. And the goal is to resonate and to make a difference and affect our community and all communities in as much of a positive way as possible. And that's what I'm doing right now. So they saw it. They put me on Bill Ma on HBO Real Time with Bill Ma. They wanted me. They put me on the View and they said, oh, this brother is real. It's something special going on here. And then everybody started calling and I'm like, this ain't new. This has always been me. If you, if you think about the conversations we've had off the air, think about the things we talk about. Think about the things I've shared with all three of y'all at one point in time or another. And all of y'all have espoused words of wisdom on me, and I'm always appreciative of that.

I love you. I love you. I'm in the friend zone now. I don't believe my man needed us to tell him that it was over. What? I said I don't believe he needed us to tell him it was over. But sometimes, you know what? Sometimes it's good to hear somebody else. You. Sometimes when you used to living a lie, you know, you. You got to come to the fellas for the truth because you don't want to accept it yourself. That was him. I'll tell you how you can get out of the friend zone. Put that on them.

No, it's usually the ladies that's ask, who is she?
