Many blessings to you guys. I'm wishing for more success for you guys as well. My question would be, now that the FIFA World cup is rolling in, therefore, they're forcing NFL stadiums to turn into grass stadiums. So why is the US Always been predominantly turf based? It's easier to maintain. Bingo is cheaper because. So now guess what? They tear. They tear that grass up, and then I got to replace it. I ain't got to replace that turf at all.

[Chad Ochocinco]

It's. And especially on top of that, too. You think about some of the cold weather cities, some of the cities where it gets cold. Buffalo, you know, Pittsburgh, New York. You don't have to. Yeah, New York, you don't have to deal with any kind of maintenance at all. Hey, if you got regular grass, hey, it. It's.

[Joe Johnson]

Hell, yeah.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

And then some tea.

[Joe Johnson]

Like Pittsburgh, the. The Panthers and the Steelers play there. And that's why it looked. That's why it looks terrible. So it's. It's easier to maintain. It's cheaper. I mean, especially like Ocho said, when the weather gets bad. Now, the Texans, you know, the Texans got grass, but it's Texas, Arizona, they got rollout. They roll the grass out. It's rolled up in big old big balls.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Hey, Arizona and. And Houston, hey, they got that Bermuda grass. I think the Raiders do, too. Man, it is beautiful. It's so flat. And I'm getting me per.

[Joe Johnson]

Immaculate.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Oh, no.

[Joe Johnson]

I grabbed what you call them Broncos when I play, man, I grip, man. That thing was.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

It was real grass.

[Joe Johnson]

Real grass. Yeah. Absolutely. Absolutely.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

Hey, which I'd rather play on the grass or turkey? Yeah.

[Joe Johnson]

Oh, yeah. I've never.

[Chad Ochocinco]

I've never had a problem with any joke, and it's. I'm really the wrong one to ask. But with the injuries that. That continue to happen year in and year out, I'm starting to think it's something wrong with the turf. I'm. I'm starting to think. I'm starting to believe it. You know, that there's a problem with the surface, but the fact that I was able to play on the turf for so many years in Cincinnati I ain't never play on grad, Joe. Oh, yeah, and I was fine. I never had any, you know, any. Any lower extremity injuries, so. But. But with all the other players getting hurt, man, I just, like, maybe. Maybe we need to go back to grad.

[Joe Johnson]

See, Ocho, you didn't get an opportunity to play on the AstroTurf where it was just concrete with that green sheet underneath the top of it.

[Chad Ochocinco]

And you played on that.

[Joe Johnson]

Y'. All. Y' all used to have that old Riverfront stadium. Yes, yes. Real.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Yeah, I missed that. I missed that. What about two, three years, huh?

[Joe Johnson]

Cincinnati, Philly had. Philly was terrible. Turf was terrible. The. The old house of pain. The Astrodome, man.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Yeah.

[Joe Johnson]

Kansas City, actually, believe it or not, used to be turf. Yes, with the Seahawks before they moved to Lumen Field. They had turf.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Yeah.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

Hey, you probably get some mean turf, man.

[Joe Johnson]

Look here.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Hey, hey, that shower after the game, Joe.

[Joe Johnson]

Lord have mercy. Them turf burns.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

Yeah.

[Chad Ochocinco]

On the elbows.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Joe Johnson]

Man, your ass, man. You. You. You don't even know it, man. You get in. Damn.

[Redfin/Autotrader Advertiser]

What that.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Hey, Joe. Hey, that junk hurts, though.

[Joe Johnson]

And it doesn't heal because guess what? You're gonna be falling again.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

Yeah.

[Joe Johnson]

Yeah, man. Hey, I don't. I don't miss the. I don't miss. I don't miss that turf. I'm trying to think who else has some. I'm talking about some just terrible turf.

[Joe Johnson]

Who did I play?

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

Pittsburgh?

[Joe Johnson]

Green Bay?

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

No, that was.

[Joe Johnson]

That was about it. But and then, then they went to grass. But hey, I don't know. Like I said, to see Barry on that turf. Good luck, tackle. Good luck, good luck. Cause he was just. It wasn't fair.

[Chad Ochocinco]

And we, and we. After all these years, we still ain't seen that.

[Joe Johnson]

You'll never see anything like it. God only made one of him.

[Chad Ochocinco]

I think the closest thing we've got to it. That's not. Not almost, not even almost somewhat comparable with Sean McCoy in his prime. Now Bijan Robinson, that's able to come to balance entice faces and make people like that and then get back to full speed.

[Joe Johnson]

The differences between those two guys, Ocho, they're one foot planners. If you look at Barry, Barry would literally hop, stop on both feet.

[Chad Ochocinco]

And he was like.

[Joe Johnson]

Like a slalom skier. I mean, his. The way I'm like, bro, how you man, if I did that? Acl, Patel are gone.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Everything gone.

[Joe Johnson]

You just have to see the way his body. How his body his. The dorsal flexing in his ankles, the way his body just moved. Oo, you had. Like I said, some things you just need to see for yourself. I got an opportunity to see him up close and personal. On Thanksgiving, no less.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Yes, sir.

[Joe Johnson]

Lord have mercy. It don't like I said some things like you need to see Jordan play or I wish I could have saw Michael Phelps swim or Usain Bolt run. But to see Barry Sanders run a football. Good Lord, I told y', all, Uncle ISO, keep that bad juju on the other side. Now y' all not. Y' all not. That steak went back with okc. Them nuns bless the spurs with a dove tonight. Hey, they might put them nuns on the plane instead of the okc.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

Hey, they damn sure brought us some

[Joe Johnson]

good luck ghost birds. Ocho. ISO, I live in Portland, Oregon. What do the players Blazers need most new player wise next season. Well, Dame's gonna be back. Yeah, Dame's gonna be back. Denny. Damon. Denny. I like that. You can put them in the pick and roll. You got Clingan, you got a big. What are they gonna do with Grant? What are they gonna do with Shane Sharp? Joe, I thought he. I thought he was playing well.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Hey, that's the high flyer.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

And what's, what's, what's the young cat who came in with Wimby. Yeah, what they gonna do with school? I mean, you gonna keep school? You. I mean, I think Holiday is a free agent. Are you gonna bring Holiday back? I think they got some questions, you know, they have to answer for their team. But I'm Thinking they expecting Dame to come back and probably be at least a 22 to 25 point score. Okay, Ocho.

[Joe Johnson]

Yes, yes.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

So we'll see. It's going to be fun to see him back out there playing, but we'll see the dynamics of that team. I think you got to find a way to keep. Keep Grant. You know, you got to keep them long Ranger guys because Dame ain't the best defender. So you want to surround him with guys who don't mind playing defense and doing some dirty work.

[Joe Johnson]

I agree. Hey, fam. Doctor. This is from Dr. Frankie Bellamy. Hey, fam, Is there any possibility you'll bring back the bucket hat that like the clip we saw with Tim Johnson? I think nightcap bucket hats would go hard. Love y', all, man.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

What bucket?

[Joe Johnson]

You remember the dude that was imitating me in the Hard Knocks video?

[Chad Ochocinco]

Oh, man. Hey, that was funny.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Joe Johnson]

Like, for like five or six years, that's all I wore everywhere I went. Not just in. In the meetings, but I'm talking about when I went out, I would have a bucket hat on.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

Yeah.

[Chad Ochocinco]

And people like Gary Baxter, I don't

[Joe Johnson]

know it's you, because the only way I knew it was you because of the hat.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

Yeah, man.

[Joe Johnson]

Yeah, that.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

Hey, hold on.

[Joe Johnson]

The dogs in the house.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

Hey, hold on. Hold up, though. The dude who did you with that bucket hat, boy, I'm talking about. He had you down to the teeth. Hey, the way he moved his lips, the way he talked that. Oh, he had me in tears.

[Joe Johnson]

Oh, there you go. I have a hat down. I could see you. But the thing is, like, to me, to my ear, he sound like me.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

Yeah.

[Joe Johnson]

I mean, so I was like, man, when dude came out there, man, I was like, man, I said, oh, my goodness.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Hey, that wasn't. That wasn't Gary basketball.

[Joe Johnson]

No, no. His name was Tim Johnson.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Okay.

[Joe Johnson]

He was a linebacker out of Youngtown State.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Hey, that's classic for this game.

[Joe Johnson]

It was okay.

[Redfin/Autotrader Advertiser]

B.

[Joe Johnson]

B stands for bricks. Chat Ocho. ISO could have built a wall with those bricks. Yeah, well, obviously I didn't expect them to shoot like they shot the light side of the ball in game two. In game three. I didn't expect that. Yeah, but I didn't expect them to play as bad. But I. I think we need to get some of that credit to the Spurs. The Spurs? Yeah.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

You got. You gotta get.

[Joe Johnson]

They were locked in tonight.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

You got to give all that credit to the spurs because they were the more desperate team considering the fact that they knew Going back to okc. They couldn't go back down. Three, one.

[Chad Ochocinco]

No, sir.

[Joe Johnson]

How y' all in the chat going to complain about ads? Ungrateful. But I keep telling the key. Complain about the ads, but every time we turn around. Hey, what you call me a raise? The gravity didn't raise.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

Hey, graphics team be over there showing.

[Joe Johnson]

Hey, you know I threw it. I threw a little something at him.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Joe Johnson]

What up, Big three. ISO, start, bench, cut. Grand Hill, Pippin, Dominique Ocho, Megatron. Julio laugh. Is Gerald. John Mackey, Ozzy, Kellen, Winslow. Oh, it's beat it for me, Big Kale. I'm starting. I'm benching Ozzy. I'm cutting Mackie. Sorry.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

I'm. I'm starting. Nick benching Pip. And I got cut.

[Joe Johnson]

Grant Ocho, Megatron. Julio laugh Is Gerald. Damn.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Yeah, I'm. I'm taking stats out of it. I'm not even looking at stats because that's everything everybody will go off of. I'm just gonna go off of what them boys did on the field.

[Joe Johnson]

Okay. Huh?

[Chad Ochocinco]

I'm going. Calvin Johnson starting, Julio benching. And Larry, Larry cooking cut. Yeah, I'm not. I'm not doing stats and all that. Could you go by that? You know, it won't tell the story on how special. Hell with all that.

[Joe Johnson]

You do realize Ocho, super freak Cinco. And if you met another, he's a phony. It's great to see two teams that were cultivated and internally built battle on the biggest stages. Put down that coat. Orange juice Jones. I saw you and him and him. Hey.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Walking in the rain.

[Joe Johnson]

You missed me.

[Chad Ochocinco]

We'll sing that again. That's right, man. Let me put that in my library right now.

[Joe Johnson]

So much. I followed you today. So come on in and close your mouth. Are you cold? Busted. Yeah. Don't go looking in there. Everything that you packed, everything that you came with is packed up into the closet.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

Yeah,

[Joe Johnson]

I saw you with. Castle. Should stay aggressive, but I think the spurs play better team ball when he's not always in John Morant mode and not forcing it. The west is the best.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

Yeah. Hey, he is. He is great in spurts, but when you. When you use him, overuse him too damn much. That's when them big turnover started to happen. He's 6, 7, 8, 9 turnovers. And that can hurt you, but I

[Joe Johnson]

love the way they use. He's not a natural point either, though. ISO. He was a natural point guard.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

No, no, no, no, no, no. He's a great combo guard.

[Joe Johnson]

Oo, PSG. Fans since 2014. Can you tell everyone about PSG struggles to win the CL before last year? And what's your score prediction for the finals this year?

[Chad Ochocinco]

Hey, you know what? The funny thing about it, when you look at pfg, obviously, when I, I thought they would, they would dominate

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

where

[Chad Ochocinco]

they were playing in the French League, but obviously Champions League, when they had Messi, dude, hey, Uncle. And. And Joe, they had Messi, Mbappe and Neymar on the same team. You think about those two obviously playing up front. They should dominate everything. From an offensive perspective, it didn't work. You know, they. Everybody now, they make jokes about Mbappe being the dictator, not really meshing well with some of the superstars around him, always commanding the ball in general. The funny thing, Mbappe leaves right away. PSG win the whole thing again this year. Mbappe and Real Madrid, they don't play well. Goddamn PNG right back in Champions League final again. They play on the 30th. They play so well as a team without. Even though Mbappe is probably, arguably maybe the best player in the world right now, he just doesn't play well collectively with his teammates. And I don't understand why, when he's so goddamn good. I. It's. It's confusing to me where I understand the game of soccer and don't understand

[Joe Johnson]

why he can't play better with others.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Yeah, why didn't. Yeah, he didn't. He doesn't play well with others, despite him being so skillful so fast. I, I don't know. It's weird.

[Joe Johnson]

Ocho, you ever had Marlon Wayans cigars panel? What playoff team? Chris Paul could have helped, Man, I think they might have put that word out on Chris Paul.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Oh, what you mean?

[Joe Johnson]

Look, well, I mean, I think, I think he could have helped somebody, but the problem is, it seemed to me teams wanted Chris Paul for mentorship. Chris Paul want to play.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

Yeah.

[Joe Johnson]

So you know how some guys is okay being, hey, hey, you know, come, this is what you need to do, blah, blah, blah, so forth and so on. Some guys are okay with that role. It didn't seem to me that Chris Paul was going to be okay with that role.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

So now you, you, hey, you look at, you look at Philly and you look at Kyle Lowry sitting over there, who's won a championship, who's been a great player in his league. I don't even know when the last time I seen him touch the damn flow.

[Joe Johnson]

Warm up. That's it.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

He over there, he's standing up. He give you 600 claps a game. You know what I mean? He. He keep your young players in line. Help.

[Public Investing Advertiser]

He.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

He's an extension of the coach. CP trying to do that. CP won't. I think CP obviously the obvious team for me in this postseason, obviously the Rockets. And to some degree, I think he could have helped Detroit.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Yes.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

Meaning you move K to the two or the three, take him off the ball, and then you, you know, you. You kind of use them in that way. I think K is a guy who you can maneuver around and if you need good point guard play, somebody who could just, you know, orchestrate it, you know, they ain't got to do a whole hell of a lot, but, you know, they ain't gonna do nothing to hurt you neither. You know what I mean?

[Joe Johnson]

I agree. Joe, what's up? Can't wait for the NFL to start so we can get. Get at each other's necks again on Philly. What drives you to keep pushing past haters? Love the show. Success brings enemies. We're gonna have haters now. The thing is, we've always had haters, guys. We just didn't have a platform where we could hear them or see them.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

And guess what? If you ain't got no haters, you ain't popping. Hey, if you ain't got no haters, you ain't. Hey, right. Hey, got no haters, you ain't popping.

[Joe Johnson]

Yeah, I, you know, I used to block. I. I ain't blocking no more haters because I need them to see these blessings. If I block them, they can't see the blessings they. I'm getting. I like, they can't see. Oh, but. But I don't understand, Joe. What I. I just need somebody to help me understand. I don't like. If I don't like something, why would I go buy it? It? Well, I don't like a person. Why would I go to their platform,

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

get to get a reaction. Yeah.

[Joe Johnson]

You said you don't like me. Okay, so why are you here? I unfollowed you, bro. You an airline. You don't need to round your arrival or departure.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Hey, hey. That's my line I'll be using on Twitter, bro.

[Joe Johnson]

Okay. It's okay. You don't like me, okay? You made that clear. So what you trying to drum. You trying to summons up other people. So they don't like me either? Either I like, bro. It's.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

Yep.

[Joe Johnson]

But it's the. If some of them haters that got platforms, they'd be trying to hate on the sneak.

[Chad Ochocinco]

They do. Well, how the hell I be missing

[Joe Johnson]

it all the time because they don't ever put you. They don't. They don't never say anything about you o choice. Even though. Even though you might say something. They go, they. They loot me in it because they try. Because if they put me in. If they put me in the thumbnail, people gonna click. What do now?

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

Right.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Okay. Hey, let me know next time it happens. So I go ahead.

[Joe Johnson]

We good. We. We just let them. Let them hang in a. Them little. You know, the little 4, 000 views. Okay. See, look completely shook tonight. Spurs turned them into the 2012 Bobcats. And that's SGA fighting for every bucket. That's what you got to do. You got to make it tough on him.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

Hey, and it's been like that all Seriously. It's hard. It seemed like it's been hard for OKC to come by points. Obviously they bench warn them game four, but hell, they gonna need somebody to step up game in game five. Game three.

[Joe Johnson]

I mean, Blade said, I wonder if Shea fell for his lady, like how often he falls in the game.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

He hit. He hit the ground a lot, don't he?

[Joe Johnson]

Yes, but he have a bodysuit on. Ocho Joe. He got pads. You know, he got those pads, those thigh pads he got. Yeah, he got those.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Yeah.

[Joe Johnson]

Chad, look, he's seven foot. He looking more like LA Fitness player than an all star.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

Straight up, bro. They making it tough on him. They are making it tough on him

[Joe Johnson]

because you think about it, he's not as fluid. He's 4 inches, 5 inches shorter than Wimby. He's not as fluid as Wimby.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

No, he not. He's not.

[Joe Johnson]

You look at women, you look at the women, how women get the ball, boot, crossover spin. That ain't chat.

[Chad Ochocinco]

No, listen, we've been spoiled by Kevin Duress and we've spoiled by Wimby because they twitchy and they great with the ball in their hands.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

Yeah.

[Joe Johnson]

What players did you guys enjoy to watch most growing up? Bob Sanders and Ricky Williams were my favorite to watch.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Oh, Bullet Bob, well, that was my boy there. I love. I love Bob Sanders. Growing up. Growing up, when I was playing, my favorite to watch was Randy and to and a couple years younger.

[Joe Johnson]

We talking about when you. He talk about 1012.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Oh, when I was that little. Oh, hey, but that's the same time

[Joe Johnson]

they played

[Chad Ochocinco]

the Marx Brothers. But Unc, even when I enjoyed.

[Joe Johnson]

I would like a look.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And that. That's before I came to understand who was the standard at the position, the 80 over there in San Francisco. I didn't know that yet.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

Hey, for me it was George Jordan, Penny Hardaway, TMac and Kobe. I. I enjoyed watching all them dudes play.

[Joe Johnson]

Oh, man.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Matter of fact, you know what?

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

What's up?

[Chad Ochocinco]

When I think about it, everybody you just named, they on my hit list, too. So when I'm done with your ass, you tell Penny, you tell Jordan. I don't care how old he is. Leave that NASCAR alone. Come see me one on one. And we can bet whatever, too. Tell him we could bet whatever.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

Hey, lead him out of this, boy.

[Joe Johnson]

You.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

Hey, you got a lot on your damn hands right now, partner, don't you? You don't you.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Hold on, time out. Who got a lot on their hands? You. Well, God gave me two, you hear me?

[Joe Johnson]

Huh? Both of them gonna be full. Joe said.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Nah, man, listen. Hey, hey, but hey, hey. Joe is an appetizer to me, man.

[Joe Johnson]

Damn.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

Oh, okay.

[Chad Ochocinco]

He's an appetizer to me, man. That's easy work.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

Okay.

[Joe Johnson]

Okay. Yeah.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Oh, yeah. You don't understand who you're dealing with, huh?

[Joe Johnson]

How's that? How is that good defense when you gave up 103 and only scored 83? Look, I mean, 100 points in NBA ain't nothing.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

Yeah, No, I mean, you look at

[Joe Johnson]

the average, they probably. The average, probably like one. What'd you say, Joe? 110, 115.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

Yeah. By 115. 1. 115. 112, something like that.

[Joe Johnson]

But 83. Yeah, but look at the percentage in which they shot. Both teams shot under. One team shot 33. The other team was under 40%. Both teams was under 35% from the three. One team was under 30, so. And I think. I think that because both defenses played really well, we know both teams have outstanding defenses. We thought it was a rare that. That San Antonio, with the defense that they play, allowed OKC to shoot 50% the last game. Yeah.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

So, you know, I took after him and everything. That's, that's why I got most of the stuff that I do is from being on sets, watching, and how to, you know, appreciate the craft.

[Joe Johnson]

Nah, I, I honestly got. I have no idea who these people are. Hey, y' all know me. I ain't got no problem. Hold. I just named some. Clearly, I know who some are. I just don't know these, right?

I have never heard of these ladies before in my life.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Hey, don't worry about it. Yeah, I told. I told you who it was.

[Joe Johnson]

But that old church going joy know who every last one up was?

[Chad Ochocinco]

Yeah.

[Joe Johnson]

Hey, but he quit. Hey, boss, you want to go to church with me on Sunday? What was the divisional week versus Tennessee like? That's real football back then to should have been a top 100 all time on the top 100 all time team. I agree. To have the guys there who played before TV was invented is wild, man. Tennant. Look, it was Steelers and Tennessee because all of us was in the same division. That was the old Central Tennessee. Cleveland, Cincinnati, Jacksonville and Pittsburgh. It was five of us in that division. It was hell. Because Tennessee at the time, I don't think they had ever beaten Tennessee, so. And then they beat us the first time we played. We beat them at their place. We were the first team to beat them in their place. And it used to be Ola. Delphi. I don't know if. Did you play there? Ocho? You played in Adelphi. You played there, didn't you? You had to.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Delphi. Delphi.

[Joe Johnson]

Oh, that's what the Titans used to play.

[Chad Ochocinco]

No, no.

[Joe Johnson]

Remember?

[Chad Ochocinco]

Remember? No.

[Joe Johnson]

You had to ochre.

[Chad Ochocinco]

They had grass, right?

[Joe Johnson]

Yes.

[Chad Ochocinco]

The first time I played in Tennessee, I think Pac man was there. I think Pac man, rookie year.

[Joe Johnson]

Oh, gosh.

[Chad Ochocinco]

I don't know. I don't know if that. I don't think that's Del found.

[Joe Johnson]

Okay.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Bullock.

[Joe Johnson]

Bullock. Huh?

[Chad Ochocinco]

Remember Keith Bullock and Samari Row were playing with the Titans?

[Joe Johnson]

I played that. Yes, that was in 2001. Ocho.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Yeah, they came to us.

[Joe Johnson]

Oh, oh, okay. But that wasn't a whole. Y' all was in the same division. It should have been a home in a road game.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Oh, no, no, no. Okay. No, they. It was division. Division was still, you know, Cleveland, Pittsburgh, Baltimore during that time, or at least when I got there.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

Yeah.

[Joe Johnson]

Yes, but Tio should have been made the top 100. I got to as the top three receiver all time. He definitely should have been on the top 100 list. Another old school way is whatever truck your dad got when you were younger is the same truck you must buy as a man. My dad got a Chevy. I got a Chevy. Old Mississippi Wade. Yep. My grandfather had a custom deluxe. It was black body, white top, and had a. A burgundy interior. Interior. I ain't. I ain't want no truck. Ain't want no pickup truck. We had a pickup truck when I was in high school. Me and my brother bought a pickup truck together. Custom to look brown. Two Tone, you know, bench. You know, had the bench.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

Yeah, yeah.

[Joe Johnson]

You know, sneak a peek in the pecan orchard, you know, If the Thunder loses, how do you feel about Zach Edie replacing Chad?

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

No. Hell no.

[Joe Johnson]

He's even slower, man. We'll be having 50 on him going around him.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

Yeah, yeah.

[Joe Johnson]

At least check a little bit.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

Absolutely right.

[Joe Johnson]

Hey, fellas, did you ever match up with time and what were your numbers? Ocho, who you got winning the World Cup? ISO. After seeing Beasley Lambs fight, would you do an MMA match with Ocho? No, I never matched up with time. We played. I'm trying to think. We played time. I only played against. No, I played against time in 94 when he was at the 49ers. I played against time in 98. Hold on. Did I play this? Played against him in 95? 98, and I played against him when he was in Washington. I might have played against time and he was in. No, he was in Washington. He was in Washington when we played. So I played against time four times, but we never matched up.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Oh, man, that's a good one. I think. I think France might pull it off this year.

[Joe Johnson]

You going friends? You going with Mbappe?

[Chad Ochocinco]

Huh? Yeah, they might put up. Hey, man, them boys loaded, Joe. From top to bottom. Joe.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

Yeah.

[Chad Ochocinco]

At every position. Ain't no weakness. Obviously, every. Every team has great players, but I'm talking about the strength at each position is. Is. Is really, really, really the cream of the crop, hey. Yeah. Especially defensive. That goddamn back line, midfield attackers. I mean, it's. It's crazy. Now, you look at some of the other teams in Argentina and in Portugal and, you know, Columbia, it's great players at Pacific positions, but across the board, man, man, France is loaded at every spot.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

Hey, you did that last question. Yes, I'll whoop his ass in some mma. Your ass. I will whoop your ass.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Listen, listen, Wait a minute. Wait. I'm glad you said that, because we can get in the ring and do it. Do it. Lance Stevenson and Michael Beasley just did what?

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

Well, I will whoop your ass, I'll tell you that. Now.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Please, somebody set it up, man.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

Yeah. Yeah. Hey, hey, hey. Can I bet that I beat him in the first round? Yeah.

[Joe Johnson]

Oh, you can bet on you. Hold on.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Can I, Can I, can I bet? I'll put you in a guillotine and make you tap out.

[Joe Johnson]

Yeah.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

Yeah. Let's bet.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Joe. I will break your arm, Joe.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

Hey, I promise you that won't last 30, 40 seconds. I'm gonna keep around a little longer, so. So, you know, Chad and the people can, you know, have a good little show, but I'm whooping.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Hey, the fact that Joe continue to forget I have a combat. I have a background in combat sports.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

I don't care nothing about that. I don't care nothing about that damn background comeback.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Okay, okay, you know what? From this point on, Joe, I'. Ma. You up on site.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

Yeah, on site. Okay.

[Chad Ochocinco]

On site.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

I can't wait.

[Chad Ochocinco]

On site. Like, don't.

[Joe Johnson]

Don't even talk. Right?

[Chad Ochocinco]

Don't say nothing.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

Absolutely.

[Chad Ochocinco]

The first thing coming is the punch.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

Understood? Understood.

[Joe Johnson]

Nightcap. What up, though? I'm from Detroit. What will it take for my Pistons and Lions to both bring the city championships? What moves need to be made? And y' all got everything.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

You need some. A.

[Joe Johnson]

You need.

[ISO (likely a co-host or friend)]

You need some. You need some more scoring with the Pistons, bro. You gotta. You gotta get some more offensive weapons and that. I think that should be able to get you over the top because defensively, they're a great defensive team, but you gotta be able to put up points, man. I think.

[Joe Johnson]

I think what you call them, I think Detroit had a great chance. They had a 20 something point lead on San Francisco. Joe Ocho, you remember, they was out in San Francisco and they had that big old lead and they squandered in San Francisco, cutting all the way back and ended up going to the Super Bowl. Y' all got it.

[Chad Ochocinco]
