[Joe Johnson]

George Kittle spoke out against NFL teams being willing to use grass for the World cup matches, but not for their own players. Via the nflpa. We've made it clear that we prefer grass fields. We know it's better on our bodies, and clearly we know it's possible based on everything that went on, putting grass fields for the World cup in each stadium. At this point, it comes down to the NFL making it a priority and choosing to invest in us as players because our bodies are our business. We which they get to capitalize on. Ocho, do you agree with Kittle?

[Chad Ochocinco]

I mean, this has always been a real tough one for me too, Uncle Joe. And for me, you look at all the injuries, right? You look at the injuries when it comes to soccer, whether players are playing their clubs, where they're playing here at the World Cup.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Yeah.

[Chad Ochocinco]

And the rate of, the rate of injuries for them as far as ACL tears is so far few than the NFL. And most of the time we get hurt, it's on the artificial surface.

[Joe Johnson]

Yes.

[Chad Ochocinco]

And what do we say it is? We say we're tearing our ACLs because of the surface. So, I mean, is there some truth to it? Probably so. But one of the things that would happen is, is now you're adding more money, having owners to have to pay for maintenance to the, you know, to the grass. Because though most of the stadiums that have the artificial turf on, you know, it's cold weather stadiums, it's cold. It's where it gets cold at some point. Now, if you have grass, well, when you get the goddamn, you know, November, December and January, well, you have hell on your hands. I, I, I, I, I get it, though. I understand where Kittle's coming from. We've seen it countless times with players having injuries on the artificial turf. And I mean, for someone that never got in, never got injured and it played on artificial turf. Uncle Joe, you know, my whole life in Cincinnati, I think I had grass my first year before, before they changed it. I just, I, I get it, I get it.

[Joe Johnson]

Y' all did. Ocho, as a matter of fact, I remember you guys used to have gray. Well, first at Riverfront, you guys had turf.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Yeah.

[Joe Johnson]

And then, and the statement that you got now, because I remember my last year, I think we played Y' all in 02.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Yeah, see, we already had, we had,

[Joe Johnson]

we had, y' all had grass then.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Didn't.

[Joe Johnson]

Didn't y' all switch to turf? What? When did y' all go to synthetic grass? I think it might have been like 05.04.04.05.

[Chad Ochocinco]

It might have been 03.

[Joe Johnson]

Huh.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Maybe 03. I can't remember. But, I mean, I didn't mind. Joe. Joe. I don't care what I'm on, boy. They're on ice, boy. I'm running routes on ice, you know?

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Yeah.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Hey, Joe.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

I'm saying, Unc, did you have a preference when you played grass?

[Joe Johnson]

Grass. Absolutely. Grass. Grass. Grass. And then look, we always had grass. And the Chargers always had grass. Now the Chargers, because they shared the field with the baseball. So you just hope to avoid the Chargers before September. If you got October on, you know, you gonna get nice weather and you're gonna get grass. We always had grass. Kansas City had turf. Then they went to grass. The Kingdome. The Seattle Seahawks used to play in the Kingdome. Yeah, that was turf. Then they went outside. And then when they started building luminous field, they played at Husky Stadium. That was turf. And then they got grass. And so, like the last couple of years, everything that I played on is within my division was grass.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Yeah.

[Joe Johnson]

Then go to Baltimore. Baltimore was grass. Jacksonville was grass. Tennessee was grass. Cleveland was grass.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Yeah.

[Joe Johnson]

Cincinnati was the only one. But I think Cincinnati, by the time I got to Baltimore, Cincinnati was grass. So. But no, Joe, I didn't like the turf because the old turf, now they call this field turf, but the old turf was basically concrete with a carpet rolled on top of was hard. And you stayed with strawberries. You didn't really know how bad until you got your ass in the shower after the game through your eye.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Damn.

[Joe Johnson]

What? And then have your ass red. Cause you don't slid on that turf. You did the peel a. Yeah. Elbows and your forearms, your knees. So. No, I. I prefer grass. But to Ocho's Point, the upkeep and the maintenance of it. Remember, the objective of any corporation.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Yes.

[Joe Johnson]

Is to make as much as we possibly can while spending as little as we possibly can.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Yes, sir. Yes, sir.

[Joe Johnson]

That's it. That's. That's a. Output is here. Profits up there. Yeah, that's just. That's just the way it is.

[Commercial Announcer]

Yes, sir.

[Joe Johnson]

And. Yeah, and like you said, plus also, they do so many other things. They got college football games there. They got concerts there. Can you imagine? You got a concert and you got 70,000 people in there.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Grass. Nope.

[Joe Johnson]

That stadium, that, that, that, that, that. That concert stadium. People walking.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Yeah.

[Joe Johnson]

Eat that up.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Yeah.

[Joe Johnson]

So I. I get. I totally understand. I think. I think the only two, like, true. True grass is. Is like Houston and Arizona.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Arizona.

[Joe Johnson]

They roll them out on pallets.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Hey, hey, Joe. They grass so beautiful. Boy. I'm talking about that low Bermuda grass.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, Joe.

[Joe Johnson]

Hey.

[Chad Ochocinco]

It's like I've been on the golf course once, but it looked like that. Golf course grass, Joe.

[Joe Johnson]

Yeah. St. Augustine. Cause, you know, look, you got. You got fescue, you got centipede, you got St. Augustine, you got Kentucky bluegrass. So it all depends because certain grasses grow different in certain areas. Some grass need a lot of sunlight, some grass doesn't need as much sunlight. So you got to understand where you are, proximity in the region that you live in.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Yeah.

[Joe Johnson]

The type of guy See that St. Augustine is a thick type of grass.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Yeah.

[Joe Johnson]

And some people like to kind of have that grass for the yard. You can't cut it too low because it'll burn.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Yeah.

[Joe Johnson]

And then some people like centipedes, some people like fescue in the Kentucky blue. I don't know what Augusta nationally is, so. But they say. They said Houston turf now. So they said Houston is field turf now. Tampa has natural grass. Okay. But all I know is I got tired of cutting all of it. Don't push your law over. Grab my yard.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Oh, yeah.

[Joe Johnson]

Drake flexed on ig that he won a million dollars betting on Canada to beat South Africa in the World cup. Today after placing 707 on his country, he walks away with a smooth profit of 231,000.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Yeah.

[Chad Ochocinco]

How much he bet?

[Joe Johnson]

He bet 770. 770,000.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Oh, yeah.

[Joe Johnson]

And he can't. But here's the thing, Ocho. They scored. They scored with like.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Oh, they scored a minute left.

[Joe Johnson]

An extra time.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Yeah. On stoppage time.

[Joe Johnson]

Stoppage time.

[UnitedHealthcare Employee 1]

Yes.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Yeah. It was a good game, South Africa. South Africa had some chances, too. They just couldn't find it back in the net.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Hey, hey. You can't even enjoy watching the damn game. You spend that type of money gambling? Hell, no.

[Joe Johnson]

But for me, that don't make no sense, though. 7. 7. I bet 770 to win 231. Now I need to bet 231 to win 770,

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

right?

[Joe Johnson]

I don't know. I don't know how y' all look at it, but that's how I look at it, Joe. And oo, man, I need to bet little to win a lot. I ain't trying to bet a lot to win a little.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

I'm saying Canada was favored, though, wasn't it?

[Joe Johnson]

Yes.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

I think that's probably why. If they were the underdog, it would be.

[Joe Johnson]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, it's officially 6. 29.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Share the pose with Ocho. The Monday night game versus Champ Bailey, when you made him fall on that 50 yard touchdown bomb, was your coming out party to let the NFL know you that boy in here to stay.

[Chad Ochocinco]

I mean, I mean, listen, that was a good night again, Champ. Obviously, Champ. Still one of the greatest. One of the greatest. When we talk about defensive backs being able to cover one side of the field in those conversations with Reavis and Deion, Champ is that. I mean, that night I like to say I got lucky, you know, a little bit. Especially where he tripped over my. The back of my heel. Which happens sometime. But that was a good game. That was a good game. That. That. I would say that is my coming out party in a sense to let let people know and put them on notice. I hit arrived

[Joe Johnson]

ISO. What is the biggest shot you've ever hit in your life?

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

The biggest shot. Damn. The biggest shot. I honestly don't know, man.

[Jessa (IBM Representative)]

I.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

You know, I had a few big ones. Uncle Ojo Paul's. But I can't really. I can't really pinpoint one that was just. I don't really know. I don't really know. I know I had some great playoff moments, but I can't really remember like one shot that was just like. I'm sure I got him. I just can't remember now.

[Joe Johnson]

I was on Tick Tock and I saw a video that you showed a promo for your shoot for the return to Baltimore on Monday night. You were singing Eminem's song Guess who's Back. But you put your name in it. Yeah, I couldn't use his.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Yeah.

[Joe Johnson]

And I'm sure ESPN paid money to get that cleared.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Yeah, yeah.

[Joe Johnson]

Nightcap. My nightcap. Big three. My wife Adrian and I welcome the baby boy legend Maximus to the world today. 6lbs 13 hours ounces. Mom and son are healthy. God is great. Quentin, congratulations.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Congrats.

[Joe Johnson]

Wife. Congratulations on the newborn black mom and baby are healthy. Hey, Eddie. Born on Joel's birthday, man.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Hey, that's your first. That's his first.

[Joe Johnson]

They say welcome to our baby boy. He didn't say it was first, but Legend Maximus.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Hey, I like that. Oh, I like that name.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Legend Maximus.

[Chad Ochocinco]

With a name like Legend Maximus. Hey, he got to be that boy.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Hey, destined for greatness. You hear me?

[Chad Ochocinco]

He ain't got no choice.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Hey, I tell you what.

[Joe Johnson]

Now you know what I'm thinking about? You know what? If you had another. If you had another kid, Ocho, what would you name it?

[Chad Ochocinco]

That's. You know what, Unc? That's a great question. And most of the time, I stay out of the naming business and allow,

[Joe Johnson]

you know, I'm in the naming business.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

You are? Yeah.

[Chad Ochocinco]

I always allow mom to name. Now, if it's something I don't agree with, I will let them listen. You know what? I don't really like that. I don't like that. I'm just be honest with you. But I let them do everything here. I call my kids nicknames anyway. I ain't. I. I haven't called Serenity Serenity since she was born. I say French Fry. I call it French Fry. Cause she looked like a little golden, little French fry. That's my baby.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Yeah, yeah, Joe.

[Joe Johnson]

What you got for him, Joe?

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

I mean, all my kids names start with a J, bro. I'm involved. Yeah, they all. They all got JJ's in their name.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Okay.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

So if I had a child. None of them are juniors, though. I don't have, you know.

[Joe Johnson]

Yeah, yeah, I know. No junior.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Yeah. I don't have no juniors. I wouldn't. I. I don't know. For whatever reason, man, I always felt that was strange. You know, maybe it was because of, you know, what I've accomplished and had to put that pressure.

[Joe Johnson]

You a junior, ain't you, though, Joe?

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Nah, I don't have my dad's last name. I just got his first name.

[Joe Johnson]

Okay, okay, okay.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Yeah. But, you know, giving my son, you know, my name, bro, I. You know, hell, it's already enough pressure out here. You feel me? Yes.

[Joe Johnson]

That's a good right about that.

[Chad Ochocinco]

That makes sense.

[Jessa (IBM Representative)]

Yeah.

[Chad Ochocinco]

I wonder if that is his first child, man. You know, I like. Congratulations.

[Joe Johnson]

Yeah, no.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Two is better than one, though.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

You still working on. You still working for twins, Ocho? You.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Who, me?

[Joe Johnson]

I thought you said working with your boy. Please.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Who, me? Yeah, yeah.

[Chad Ochocinco]

I'm trying to look for the right price, Joe. You know, that. That FBI boy, that thing. Expensive boy.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Yeah, yeah. Would you name yours if you had One if you had one, because I know yours still.

[Joe Johnson]

If I had a boy, I'd name it. I'd name him after my brother.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Yeah. Oh, man, we still got. You still got time.

[Joe Johnson]

What I look like? I mean, it's gonna be a 30, 33, 34 year age gap between my oldest, between my kids.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Ain't nothing wrong with that, huh? Hey, listen. Ain't no rule. Ain't no rule book. Ain't nobody say you have to do things this way. What's 20, 26.

[Joe Johnson]

Yeah, I gotta do that, kid. That got expensive now, Ocho boy.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Hey, you ain't never lie.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Hey, hey, hey, Joe, I tell people all the time, man, kids ain't expensive. What you choose to buy they ass is, huh? Because I can get by. I can get back cheap with them real quick, right?

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Okay.

[Joe Johnson]

No, you can't. Yeah, I wanted twins once upon a time, Ocho.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Oh, no, I ain't never.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Hey, Unc. It's never too late. You hear me?

[Joe Johnson]

Yeah, it's too late.

[Chad Ochocinco]

No, it ain't.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

It really ain't, though. For real, if you just really think about it.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Thank you, Joe. Thank you, Joe. Thank you.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

It really ain't, man.

[Joe Johnson]

You see how I'm moving around? How you think I'll be moving around in 17 years?

[Chad Ochocinco]

Hey, they'll be able to push you.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Hey, listen, listen, please. You gonna have you a. A younger lady. Cause you know you don't want nothing

[Joe Johnson]

old but a bankroll.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

You hear me? Yeah, yeah. I already know you don't want nothing old but a bankroll. So listen.

[Joe Johnson]

Hey, hey. They call me Cat Pistol Pie. Ain't nothing smoke. Ain't no real bullets in that joke. Ain't no real bullets now. Yeah, that's all I got for him, man.

[Chad Ochocinco]

That's a good one.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Yeah, that's a good one.

[Joe Johnson]

As a trio Laker fan, once LeBron got there, I was able to put my dislike for him and root for him. It's not even LeBron. It's his fans. His fans make you hate him. But we'll be sad to see him leave.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Yeah, you're gonna be sad to see him leave. You gonna be sad when he retired, too? Cause, yeah, you know, the game has been in a great space and place since he's joined the NBA 21, 22 years ago, man. It's.

[Joe Johnson]

It's.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

It's gonna be a sad day when he walk up out of there, Ojo.

[Joe Johnson]

Yeah,

[Chad Ochocinco]

People never understand it too, Joe. They'll never.

[Joe Johnson]

But I'm just trying to figure out. They say his fans, so what? Historically, great players didn't have a loyal fan base. So Jordan fans. Jordan fans don't bother you, huh? Kobe fans don't bother you? Steph Curry fans doesn't bother you? Michael Jordan, excuse me. Magic Johnson fans doesn't Bother you just LeBron's fans, huh? You see that y'? All Every day. Yeah, only LeBron fans are any more fans more devout than Kobe and Jordan's fans.

[Commercial Announcer]

No.

[Joe Johnson]

I would say no. But hey, it's gonna end for everybody. Steph has mentioned more than ones that he'd like to play in Charlotte someday. Any chance that could happen? Yeah, but it won't be tomorrow. Hey, probably by the time Steph start playing in Charlotte, he'd be his three ball be looking like mine.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Yeah, I don't see, I don't see that happening. Not, not in the, at the rate that they're going. And what that. I don't see that happening.

[Joe Johnson]

LeBron is too old for these questions. It's rings or nothing. Like, why are we still playing for fun at this point, your career, at this point in your career at a high level. Yeah, it is. Does he still. It's easier to play when you still enjoy the game and you don't look at it as a grind. How many people you think tomorrow morning is going to wake up like, oh man, I got to go to this Damn job. Yeah, LeBron is. Most guys never have. LeBron probably never had woke up with that. Brady Jordan, Kobe, Peyton Manning, Joe Ocho. Me, I ain't never woke up like, oh Lord, man, I gotta go. Oh, Joshua, he gotta go to practice today. I, I ain't never felt that way. Now I'm sure maybe some people have, but I've never felt like that. I've never had a job that I woke up and said, damn, I gotta go in here today.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Hey, excuse me, though, not when you enjoying it and having a good damn time. Now when I had my first job at ups, hell yeah. I was thinking that I was like, damn, I gotta, I gotta go down here, pick up these, these heavy ass E rig boxes and unload this damn truck. Oh, wait, what it's gonna be? Hell yeah. I thought about it.

[Joe Johnson]

Good money though, Joe.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Yeah, they play good money. But I was in high school, I, I had already made my man up. I said, oh, I'm in there with dudes, man, who've been working 15, 17 years. I'm like, oh, hell no, I can't do this for no dam. Oh, hell no. I'm finna. I'm gonna be in the gym tomorrow for sure. For sure.

[Joe Johnson]

That's. That's how it is, Joe.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Yeah.

[Joe Johnson]

I mean, you working out there in the fields, and I'm young and that. Man, they grown. They got. They got kids, they got grandkids. I'm like, man, I'm not fitting to be working out here. Hey, you think I'm doing a manual labor job? Me with my kids in ec? Oh, hell no.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Hey, Ocho, dudes used to come in there, you know, if y' all know guys who work at ups, they all wear back braces.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Yeah.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

So, yeah, I'm coming in. I see all these older dudes. They were like, hey, hey, hey, hey, Joe, man, you gotta get your back brace, man. I'm like, well, I don't even plan on being here that damn long. I'm just trying.

[Joe Johnson]

Yeah, I ain't gonna work long enough my back to start hurting.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Hey, hey. I'm just trying to find me something to make a little money before I go off to college, man.

[Joe Johnson]

Damn.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

This. I ain't. Yeah. I ain't gonna be alone.

[Joe Johnson]

Golden State geriatrics in the 1990s, two receivers had success against prime. That's your brother, Michael Irvins. What did they do different for others in the 90s? They were physical. Yeah, my brother played for contact. Mike was a big physical receiver. Mike was the reason they outlawed the head slap, because Michael Herb was slapping hell out of people upside.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Hey, come. Hey, hey, Joe. Coming up, that line of scrimmage.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Yeah.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Get up out my way.

[Joe Johnson]

And people ask me, the way you see Mike animated on his podcast, he's like that in real life.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Yeah.

[Joe Johnson]

That ain't no act. That's him. Yeah, he's the. He's the. The best, the coolest, the greatest. I mean, man, that dude there. As a matter of fact, we just saw it. We just saw it. I just saw it Thursday.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Yeah.

[Joe Johnson]

In la. Mike, I gotta go, man. I said, man, I gotta go do my podcast. You know how Mike is. Mike gonna be talking? Michael talked to.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

30 minutes.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Yeah.

[Joe Johnson]

I gotta go. But he's a man. Great, great, great, great, great dude, man. B, me and Mike took the Super Bowl. That was in Atlanta. All I would say is this. Me and Mike took Gary Sheffield. He had a winner, but he had a Winnebago.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Yeah.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Yeah.

[Joe Johnson]

Oh, no, he had a motor coach. I said, man, let me, man. He like, you know how to drive one of these? I said, hell, it ain't nothing but a big old truck with a hull over it. Yeah, I could drive It. We boned out, man. You know what? To this day, I don't know how he got it. He got that coach back.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

What, you were driving a motor coach?

[Joe Johnson]

Yes, me and Mike. Nah, I don't know how he got it back. Next time I see Chef, I was like, chef, how'd you get that? How you get that back?

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Which y' all ain't take it back to him, what y' all do with it, you know?

[Chad Ochocinco]

And he was out there having a time.

[Joe Johnson]

Why can't Orlando seem to be able to get consistent play making point guards? Why does it seem like it's impossible to be good for three point shooting for them? Did Rashad Lewis and them use up all the threes or something? They definitely need a point guard. They. They.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

They got point guard. They just don't have scoring shooting point guard.

[Joe Johnson]

You know, they don't. Sugs is a defensive point guard.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Yeah. So they don't play great off Ben Carroll and Wagner. They. They guys don't play great off them. They great pick and roll guards who can get in the teeth of the defense, who can make. Who can be disruptive defensively, but they're just not that. That great of an offensive threat.

[Joe Johnson]

My man locked back up after coming out in January. I want to leave. Want to leave. But his son died in March from a car accident. Am I wrong? My man locked back up after coming out in January. I want to leave. I want to leave. But his son died and. Oh, oh. She's saying, my man is locked back up after coming out in January. I want to leave. But his son died in March in a car accident.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Hello. You can't tell me it's something important in there now. Hey, hell no.

It is.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Huh?

Somebody said the Ninja Turtles came up out of the sewers with no shell when the Knicks won the championship.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Oh, man.

Cowabunga.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Yeah.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Hello.

[Joe Johnson]

Happy first birthday, Julian. Big three. I'm ready for some football, but am I tripping? Did Jerry let his three best pass rushers lead the building? D Where D Lawrence Michael Parson. What is Jerry thinking? Jerry's thinking that those guys didn't have it anymore.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Right.

[Joe Johnson]

And D where went and had a remarkable help. We'll lead his team to a Super Bowl. D Long went and helped lead a team to the Super Bowl. Michael got hurt, but he was just starting to round into shape to and. And to show you why Green Bay gave up the assets and gave him the contract that they gave him. You started to see that. We'll see. He believed that the peep the. The players that he received back and the picks that he was able to get in the draft, he believes they'll be able to replace Michael. Only time will tell.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Only time will tell which team can

[Joe Johnson]

pay LeBron the money he wants and also contend for a championship. It seems to me Miami has the most they can play in the full 15 million mid level.

[Commercial Announcer]

Except.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Yep. Hello. Yep.

[Joe Johnson]

Now whether or not that. That that's a. He could contend with a championship, I don't know. But I know they can play him the most money. That's from what I've been reading, Miami

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

has the most and they ain't gonna have number G league players surrounded they ass.

[Joe Johnson]

So you can say, sure you won't.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Hey, we're worried about. We'll cross that bridge when we get there, Joe.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Okay,

Appreciate that. Thank you for your support. Thank you for watching all you guys. I mean, like I said, we started off in a. In a hotel room in. In New York in September. Only had about 2, 000 fans that night. I think. I think Ocho. I think we went about 35 minutes.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Yeah.

[Joe Johnson]

And I was like, man, man. But I still. We still got so much to talk about.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Yeah.

[Joe Johnson]

And then we expanded and then Ocho got me drunk one night and started telling stories. Joined and the rest is, as they say, nightcap history. But go ahead, Ocho.

[Chad Ochocinco]

Nah, I was saying it was history after that. Boy, them story. Boy, I got so many in my back pocket, Joe.

[ISO (Joe Johnson)]

Oh man, I already know it.

Joe, what team that won the NBA Finals player could you replace and they still win the same Ocho, the Super bowl with you? And who would you join? So what team won the NBA Finals that you could join? Oh, so you could. They could. I mean, Joe, you could replace the player, and you could join and they still win. I guess he talked about.
