We're back with another episode of the Group Chat.
Speaker 2:I am your host, Brennan Scarlett, aka B-Scar, aka Beej, With the other half my co-host, deej the man, the one, the only, big Gravy so many nicknames that I could keep going. I'm going to stop right there with those two and let it marinate, but just glad to be back on the group chat, man, with the guy Beej, how you doing, beej, how was your weekend?
Speaker 1:Man, my weekend was beautiful. I was actually in Idaho. I was in the great state of Idaho visiting family. I spent a couple of days at the Family Cab cabin which is out in Southeastern Idaho, really close to the Idaho-Utah border. So I flew into Salt Lake City, which Salt Lake City has, arguably the best airport in the country. It's one of the best. I love flying through there. I spent the day in Salt Lake, did a little work, had some food at my favorite lunch spot, a little coffee, and then I went to the cabin. Man spent Thursday, friday, riding four wheelers, going on hikes through the woods, having sandwiches up on mountaintops and overlooking the valleys of southeastern Idaho and seeing hawks glide from treetop to treetop, and I feel refreshed, man.
Speaker 2:That's good man, that feels awesome. I bet the air there was like crisp huh, Like just good air so crisp and it was the first time that I've been.
Speaker 1:I went to the cabin in fall, in September, because so when we grew up it was always like we do a family trip in the summertime and then obviously school starts in September and for the last however many years I've been in football season, you know, coming starting July, so obviously I'm not able to get out to Southeast Idaho and in September. So, yeah, air was crisp, fall is, uh, is is on the way. The leaves are starting to change colors, and it was, it was beautiful man. Uh, how was your weekend?
Speaker 2:My man, it was good. Um could have been better if we would've got a dub, but other than that it was pretty good. You know, um, it was good to get back out there. Get back out there with the guys, start spinning man, he's out there. He's out there 25 snaps and I felt good man, no complaints.
Speaker 2:The hardest part probably was, like you know that suicide back and forth when you're not in on certain packages, when you got to run all the way off the field and you know, the worst part about that is like you're looking at the coaches when you're coming off and they always got that look on their face, like you know they're trying to get the call to the guys, but it's always like a look kind of panic and in your head you're like what are they doing? Run, hurry up. Do I need to run? Do I need to run faster? Do I got to go? And nobody's saying anything. Then you get over there and the offense, barely done, broke down and it really pisses you off because you just spent a lot of energy running off that field and your D-line coach is freaking out.
Speaker 2:You get over there, you're out of breath the worst thing, that can happen also is a first down right after and you got to run right back on that field.
Speaker 2:You might as well have stayed out there and played that play Like. You ran over there, got a squirt of water, took you another 30-yard jog back on the field. You get to play late Now. You got to do the analysis, but it was just getting back used to it, bro, and it was cool. It was cool. It was good to get back out there. Wish we would have came away with a dub. Had a good performance. So you know, things looking good for us. I'm excited.
Speaker 1:Yeah, that's great man. Congratulations getting back on the field. I didn't get to watch the game but, man, super, super happy for you. And you know I was there in Cincinnati last year when you got hurt. You know I was there in Cincinnati last year when you got hurt and you know I saw the process and the journey and all the hard work that it took to be back on the field on Sunday. So, man, it's a testament to your willpower you know what I mean and your discipline to be able to come back and play, man and I. So I love to see it and it's funny because I feel like that, that perspective of like sometimes the going on and off the field, those little things in the game, it takes some getting used to right and folks may, you know, may not realize that actually when you got a sprint on, you know, because they just that actually when you got a sprint on, you know because they just got a first down, or sprint off because they're on third down, like it gets a little stressful in those moments.
Speaker 2:It's super stressful and you just wait. You sit there the whole time Like what is it? What's the? You see guys running on and you're like they ain't you gotta have professionals, cause if you don't have guys who are professionals luckily I'm on a team full of professionals who they come on with the hand signals or whatever package we in See. You know, when you got young guys or you got some guys who just think you're just going to run out there and yell some names like yo, yo, we in.
Speaker 2:No, bro, do the hand signals. Do the hand signals. Nobody can hear you. Nobody's looking and listening to you.
Speaker 1:Bro signal on your way out there. Signal on your way out there and echo the call.
Speaker 2:It was good. It was good to get out there. The environment was crazy. It is loud in Detroit, so it's dope.
Speaker 1:Shout out the Detroit fans man, they're showing up.
Speaker 2:They are, they are we love that. Is it more stressful running still? Oh, shout out the detroit fans man that they're showing up. They are, they are we love that.
Speaker 1:Is it more stressful, running off the field or on the field?
Speaker 2:oh, you don't know what's going on behind you. They could break the huddle, they could speed break and be on that ball right now and you might be at the numbers. And now you gotta make the mad dash and do that little stupid ass jump across the line when you think that little mini hurdle, that mini ass hurdle that ain't doing nothing, that's never saved anybody from.
Speaker 1:That's never saved anybody.
Speaker 2:That little stupid ass you feel like. As long as my feet was in the air, I wasn't on the field.
Speaker 1:Who do you think you are, bro Jesse Owens? Hey, who do you think you are? You a long jump. You think that little hop gonna do something? Well, beautiful man, I'm looking forward to the season and you know, this weekend was much better for me knowing that you was out there doing your thing, so we'll love to see it this next week. Man, what do you say? We go ahead and get into our college football section let's do it, brother.
Speaker 2:I'm excited about it this next week of college football. I didn't do so hot this first week, but next week I'm excited for it. This next week of college football. I didn't do so hot this first week, but next week I'm excited for what's going on.
Speaker 1:University of Tennessee is making waves for a couple of different reasons. The first is they added a 10% talent fee to all ticket sales that will begin in the 2025 season, and this is to subsidize the NIL efforts over at Rocky Top. What you think about that man?
Speaker 2:I mean, I feel like it makes the people in the stadium feel like they're a part. They were already paying. You know, I'm sure, their dues and things like that, but now you're actually that every ticket you buy $10 is going towards those students. It's like those commercials man, you can feed a village for just $1.
Speaker 1:At the top, hey man.
Speaker 2:You are a part man. But no, I dude, we knew this stuff was going to happen. This type of stuff was going to happen. They're finding ways to pool money any way they can and at least this way you can tell every kid on their program they're going to get some type of money and some type of revenue sharing, because every time a ticket's purchased, $10 is going to be a talent fee. So I mean, shoot.
Speaker 1:I like it Shit. Hey, that's a hell of a deal because when you think about it, it's 10% of all ticket sales, right? So if a stadium has 100,000 seats and they sell all tickets it sells out at $100 per ticket, then we're saying that that's 10 million total ticket sales and 10% of that is a million bucks, a million dollars, going to the NIL to be distributed to all players. And that's just one game. That's just one game and we're not even saying those aren't even just home tickets.
Speaker 2:That are their ticket sales period. So any ticket sold in that stadium, like you said, the whole hundred and it's Tennessee. Most people they going to those games at Rocky Top. They love it so I like it. They might hold what do they hold? They got to be holding up close to $100,000.
Speaker 1:Bro, if you say there's 100 kids on the team, 100 student-athletes on the team and that's a million dollars being dispersed across that 100, that's $10,000 a player, if my math serves me correct. Hey, that's a solid little check in college if it's an equal revenue share.
Speaker 2:Hey, you're getting that money on. And that's just on top of like the other nil stuff. Like you'll get, like you know shit, the walk-ons. Like you know what I'm saying. Like that every player just about on the team will get that amount of money and I think next stadium might. I don't know how many. I gotta look up how many stadiums served yeah, right yeah because it might be more than 100.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's crazy, those, those college stadiums are are huge. Man, I don't know. For me I'm like as a fan, if I'm showing up to the game. It kind of feels like the like when restaurants want to add the 20 gratuity to your bill. Like, hold on now, hold on now, let me. Let me decide based on the service. If I want to give 20 percent, maybe the service is bullshit and I don't want to give 20 percent, I don't know man, if I'm a consumer and I'm going to a game, I'm not playing about $10.
Speaker 2:I'm just that kind of person.
Speaker 1:Bro, it's not $10. It's 10 percent, bro. It depends on what the fee of the ticket is.
Speaker 2:I thought it was just 10 extra, but yes, you know that might be a lot Adding gratuity just on. There is crazy.
Speaker 1:Depending on how expensive the ticket is. If I got it at the 50-yard line you know it's the rivalry game Maybe it's a I don't know $1,000 ticket.
Speaker 2:I don't pay for college football tickets but maybe that's being add-on to what my ticket cost is going to cost me 10% extra. Yes, are they showing that to me as I'm buying it, or is that like? Is it only added in the ticket?
Speaker 1:cost. No, I think they're just Baking that in man. It's not itemized on your receipt. It is not itemized. I won't care, but I promise you, if I see it, I will be livid they should definitely have a have a note that's like this will be financing our starting quarterbacks.
Speaker 2:New car they shouldn't because I wouldn't if they was doing that I need, I just added in this cost, don't, don't. Don't show me shit, just add in the cost. Don't show me that it was 10 added. Be like. These tickets are just much. I don't need your reasoning for why they're this much, because that part, like you said, is going to make you mad.
Speaker 1:The second reason that Tennessee was in the news is because they were up 30-0 on Kent State and they ended up kicking an onside kick and, mind you, this is in the first quarter, they were up 30-0, and they kick an onside kick and and, mind you, this is in the first quarter, they're up 30-0 and they kick an onside kick is I mean, that just seems like the ultimate sign of disrespect, like we actually don't, we don't care about your guys's feelings and and your pride. We actually want to put it underneath our cleats and and smack and, and I would have got kicked out as a coach, I would have fought, bro.
Speaker 2:I would have started walking across the field in the middle of the game, just like how Will Smith walked up to Chris Rock. That's how I did, bro. There's no way An onside kick up 30 in the first quarter. Come on, bro. Come on, dude. We're clearly already not ready. We in the first quarter. Come on, hey, bro. Come on, dude. Like we clearly were already not ready, we're not prepared. To whose fault, whatever? Like maybe we just weren't on that level, but like to be disrespectful. Like that is crazy and it's immature. You know what I'm saying? That's some shit you gotta deal with when you turn on NCAA and you're playing some 11-year-old kid on the other side of the screen, like you're not thinking that's some stuff that's going to happen in real life. It's pretty immature. I think of a coach.
Speaker 1:If a coach does that to you and you're on the other side onside, kick boom, you realize oh damn, they're not kicking it deep, they're kicking it 15 yards and trying to recover. Before the ball is recovered, you are already making your way to the other side.
Speaker 2:I'm already walking over there because he's saying F my program, F my kids, F my family, F all that, F anything. I got respect for me. So I'm going over there. I'm probably kicking them in the nuts. That's how I'm going to feel. I'm going to probably kick him in the nuts. That's how I'm going to feel. I'm going to kick him in the nuts.
Speaker 1:That's what he deserves.
Speaker 2:That's what I feel like. That's what I feel like he deserves.
Speaker 1:Ultimate disrespect, ultimate disrespect. There's something that's got to be said about sportsmanship. You know what I mean. I understand it's a competitive game. Maybe he's trying to cover the about sportsmanship. You know what I mean. I understand it's a competitive game. Maybe he's trying to cover the spread. I don't know what the Tennessee coach got going on man, but hey, I think there's sportsmanship, not just for the other coach but also for the opposing players. You know what I mean. Kick the ball off, man. Kick the ball off so we can get this game underway.
Speaker 2:You didn't do it up 6-7. So we can get this game underway. You didn't do it up 7. You did it up 30. You could have did it the first time you got the ball. You realize we were easy to score on earlier, whether it was 14-0. At some point, why, at 30-0, did you decide this is the time we need the ball back in the first quarter?
Speaker 1:Another question that is constantly asked in college football these days, and it's if Travis Hunter can play both sides of the ball in the nfl. Uh, rg3? Uh just came out and said he thinks that it can happen. I'm curious what? What you think, dj, as as the? Uh, the, the group chats best evaluator of of talent, I mean you're, you're essentially our, uh, our glorified scout, and with the group chat, what would you say?
Speaker 2:The kid's talent is like amazing. Of course he can play both sides of the ball. Yes, I don't think that that's how he's going to be necessarily like used, though I don't see them like being like yo, like we're going to have you playing both, obviously like he can play both at an NFL level. That's like clear. He's talented enough to play both. I don't know what you draft him as. I mean you don't really see corners with those type of ball skills ever. You know what I'm saying. Like those are crazy ball skills at the corner, but I mean he's a playmaker on offense.
Speaker 2:I would like him to play defensive. I was making decisions. Luckily I'm not, so you know, when I get there one day maybe I will be, but he can really play Kid's got game, but I think he's you know he's super talented. I'll be interested to see, like in this league, with all those hits you have to make at that position on the outside, If you can play like you said, if they think you can play both, you're gonna be able to play both sides of the ball. I just feel like they said that's asking a lot of of a kid coming in with professionals to be like yo, you're gonna play both sides of the ball.
Speaker 1:It doesn't sound right to me yeah, yeah, no, I think that's it. That's a good point either, or is what it sounds like? Yeah, um, and, and I agree with that, not because of the talent, you know, and I haven't watched him enough to be able to evaluate, you know, and I'm not the the best talent evaluator. I'm not, I'm not, you know, I'm not anything like deeds when it comes to evaluating these, these rookies, and evaluating talent.
Speaker 1:But from the standpoint of just like, what a team, how a team is structured and what it, what the demands are of playing one position, you know it's a, it's a lot.
Speaker 1:And and also just thinking about, like the development that also happens. For, from the dedicated time on task for that one position, if you're playing defensive back each and every day and you're watching film on defensive back each and every day, I think I mean obviously you're able to grow and become a better player. Now, if you mix, you know that time on task, if you cut it in half and now you're also playing receiver, you know, is that the best for your development as a player Number one, but then also for the, for the team, if you know they're relying on you to do both, does that mean that they have to rely on somebody else to do both or rely less on somebody else. I think it's better for teams, whether it's in sports teams or even just thinking about from a business or corporate makeup too. I think having people have dedicated roles is really important. So I agree with you on that.
Speaker 2:I just think you can use him as a return specialist and things like that. I think you can get the ball in his hands, find ways to get the ball in those parts, because he's electrifying. But like saying you're just gonna like put him over there, like you said, put him at receiver and play him a db. Just do I get a lesser role at db? Do I have like a guy who's spotty, just in case he goes down now? Now what if he goes down? What happens? Do I have to have one person to back up both spots on the other, offense and defense? Like it's a lot of moving pieces if you just yeah, if you got to play all over the place.
Speaker 1:So, looking at last week, we had our pick-em.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, it's not as bad as I thought. See, I thought it was way worse. It it's not as bad as I thought. See, I thought it was way worse. It's not as bad as I thought. But you, hey, I'll let you. You got it. You won this week, week one, it's on you hey, I love the scoreboard, man.
Speaker 1:It says B-Scar is up three to DJ's two. We'll take that, man, we'll take a victory. How we could get them? You know what I mean? Wisconsin didn't come through for me, bama came to play, so I was a little bit shook after that. But hey, man, mizzou, mizzou, come on.
Speaker 2:Let's go. I took some gambles last week, man. I took some gambles that I shouldn't have taken. I apologize to Mizzou, I should have had more respect for them as a program. That Washington game, hey, should have had more respect for that quarterback at TCU. That kid's a ball. I mean not TCU K-State. Sorry, I would never disrespect y'all again. The quarterback is light. Mr Avery Johnson, you got it. You're the man. Sorry, I thought Washington was going to be able to do it. They couldn't, but you know. Congrats to you this week, man. I don't know what you were thinking with that Wisconsin-Alabama pick, though I don't see it. I don't know what you were thinking about, but whatever, hey man. Good job, hey about.
Speaker 1:But whatever, hey man good job, hey, just going against the grain, man. You know, just going against the grain Made no sense.
Speaker 2:I was like when you said it, I was like dude what?
Speaker 1:Looking towards next week, we got a nice little lineup here Vanderbilt, mizzou I'm going to roll with Mizzou.
Speaker 2:I got to go Mizzou as well I can't NC State at Clemson, I'm going Clemson.
Speaker 1:If I'm going first, obviously I'm going to go Clemson as well. Usc at Michigan I'm going to take USC.
Speaker 2:I'll go Michigan. I'm not. Hey, you know where I'm at. It's at Michigan, in the big house. They're not taking two L's in the big house, no way, all right it's that seat, baby Utah at Oklahoma State. Does Utah have that quarterback? Is he playing?
Speaker 1:Yeah, he's playing Utah. I got Utah too, that dude. He's a baller Tennessee at Oklahoma.
Speaker 2:I know my boy, bb, is going to be ready and you know what I'm riding with my dog. Give me OU Boomer.
Speaker 1:Sooner baby, Give me OU Onside kick 30-0 in the first quarter. I don't have to hear any more. These guys are trying to win. I'm going Rocky Top. And then, lastly, we got Stan Yu the Stanford Cardinal at Syracuse.
Speaker 2:I'm going. Stan Yu, give me kills, give me kills. It's in the dome. Y'all going to find out. Y'all going to see what it's like being in that ACC.
Speaker 1:It's going to be nothing like the library.
Speaker 2:You hear me.
Speaker 1:Hey, we're not going to lie.
Speaker 2:Intellectual, if I kill you in that dome, it's going to be sweaty in there intellectual brutality.
Speaker 1:It's a. It's a global mindset that translates regardless of where you are at, whether you're in Palo Alto or, goddamn Northern New York, it don't matter. Okay, it doesn't matter. Okay, let's move on. Huh, we got our our NFL section here Over the weekend.
Speaker 1:Bryce Young had a terrible game. The news broke that he's been benched after two really rough weeks in a season last year. That was not impressive. And Tom Brady took the stand and says that rookies are being forced to play too early. And he said that we've dumbed the game down was his words, and it was in the context of what college players are being asked to do and the factory that now is college football, where the playbooks are such that quarterbacks can come in they could be plugged in, and he'd be pretty watered down. Playbook can come in they could be plugged in and he'd be a pretty watered down playbook. And you know they're expected to be there for maybe a year or two and then they're out of there, whether that's a transfer that go into the league or whatever. So now offenses and quarterbacks are being developed with that mindset instead of being developed with the long game and being able to actually make the reads and become smart quarterbacks. So I'm curious your thoughts, dj, on what Mr Tom Brady has said about the NFL becoming a dumbed-down game.
Speaker 2:I agree I feel like back when he first came to the league there was a lot more reads through progressions and things like that, especially for the quarterback position. I don't necessarily notice that in every system. It is tough man. You come in asking the kid to come over. Obviously you got the number one pick for a reason. So now that kid's got to come in and literally is supposed to take over your whole program, like with no one there to lead them, no one there to help them, like you know, with these things. They had a new coaching staff that year, co in there to help them with these things. They had a new coaching staff that year Coaching staff got fired in like 11 games. Now you got a new staff.
Speaker 2:I think you're asking a lot of a young man who, like Tom Brady said, you're building off college success when the college game is pretty much wide open. There's a lot of one read looks and things going on and it's pretty wide open playing college football and if it was different guys out there moving at tremendous speeds and obviously some people are going to make that adjustment well, but I think there's a lot of protections in for that position, specific with things that you can and can't do. There's more room for error in certain parts of the game in that position Because, like tom always talks about, like he couldn't lead his receiver certain places, he couldn't do this in the third, but so he had to really really process. All right, he's gonna be here, he's gonna be here. My reads got to be open now. You're like certain stuff that he had to learn as a quarterback. I don't know if they had.
Speaker 1:They're forced to learn that that's in today's NFL, yeah yeah, yeah, and yeah, it's interesting, I think, that the number one pick is put into a really rough situation because he's essentially going to the shittiest team in the league last year. So it's like he's not starting off with, you know, on a great foot or a great foundation and and the, the program, the organization, the work that they do to prepare him, give him the proper support system that he needs. I mean, it's just as important, as you know, picking the guy right, and so I think that's where you know what they're doing in Carolina. Obviously they've picked him. Obviously he is you, obviously Bryce Young is an extremely talented quarterback. He has some development that needs to happen on the field.
Speaker 1:But what I ask is, to your point, what type of leadership is surrounding him? What type of support is he being given off the field? It was the decision to have him start as a rookie last year. Was that a decision that was made in the short term as, like, hey, we just needed, we're just trying to squeeze out some wins, but maybe we weren't ready for it, we didn't have the foundation, the infrastructure laid that he can be successful, versus saying you know what? No, we're going to have him sit, we're going to bring in a veteran quarterback that is going to play for the first half of the season before then Bryce gets his first start and has some better footing, and that maybe is more of a long view of now the quarterback can be. Bryce can be more confident at the helm going into year two. Right, because he didn't get his shit whacked Well, that's the wrong word word. But getting shit fucked up last year, season one the truth is exactly what happened.
Speaker 2:But I mean, you know, I think that's just one of those things like I don't know why you would think as like, as a team, I feel like nobody does great with that. First, you know, the first overall pick unless you got it, I would say, unless you got it from a team as a trade, like okay, and we weren't in those top picks. You know what the first overall pick unless you got it, I would say unless you got it from a team as a trade, like okay, and we weren't in those top picks. You know what I'm saying. Like we traded things away and got into the top picks, like Carolina, I think they did trade some stuff, but I think they were already two. So like it wasn't, like they were like down the board or something and traded up to get Bryce Young, like they were already in the top five. So any of those teams usually don't have either their quarterback got hurt the year before and they didn't do well, or they don't have a quarterback and are looking to replace him. You know what?
Speaker 2:I'm saying and if their quarterback got hurt, they're usually not in the market for QB? But I mean, if that's the other way around, they're in the market, then you're asking like you said. You're asking that and turn around a whole bunch of stuff, the QB is not just a problem if y'all went enough to be the first overall pick. It's not just him.
Speaker 2:There's a plethora of things that you're trying to overturn when you're hanging on a kid's shoulders, usually a kid who came out of school at 20. Rare are the Joe Burrows who went to school, came out at 23, 24, and is able to be mature enough to understand and help not only run the team but help run the organization, in a sense, help lead an organization.
Speaker 2:It's a lot. You're asking a kid who went to school for three years he's 20 years old to come in and step in like what? Like Without anything in place, shout out to CJ, he went in and killed it. But the Texans have a lot more structure. The players around are some good players A lot more structure in what the organization had going on with having a new coach who was a leader. You know what I'm saying. You got a decent office lying around. Just more things, just better things, better toys to help you navigate whatever it is that you're about to do, and they also helping you try to navigate it. It's not like it seemed like a seems like shit on fire in Carolina. You know, I just pray for the kid. I hope like things get better for him, man, you know you hate?
Speaker 2:to see that happen. He seems like a good kid.
Speaker 1:Yeah, best of luck to Bryce young, as he, um, you know, takes the the next, the next game and who knows how many games after that to learn under um andy dalton, who's coming in to be to be the starter. He's played a lot of years in the, in the um uh, in the league and, you know, hopefully bryce bounces back with his confidence and you know we'll, we'll see him again soon, I'm sure. Staying on the threat of quarterbacks, just want to take a moment to to talk about Tua, and you know I played with Tua for two seasons in Miami and you know, last year he suffered multiple concussions which sidelined him for a good portion of the season and then had another concussion in this past game. And I really just want to take a moment to, you know, say prayers up for Tua and, you know, send the support and love his way, the support and uh and love his way as he he's been placed on injured reserve, he's on IR now to uh, give him some time to one recover but also make an informed decision on what's what he wants to do.
Speaker 1:And uh, man, it's a it's a very difficult decision and and I know that, um, you know when you have to put when you have your health and you know this passion that you've had for your whole life and those are at odds with one another and you essentially have to choose one.
Speaker 1:You know it's really difficult, it's really difficult to to think about. Hey, I want to. You know I'm going to step away, potentially step away from this game that I love I've been playing for my whole life because I'm thinking about, you know, the years down the line and wanting to be healthy down the line. You know it's a difficult decision to make and it's a difficult decision to say. You know what? No, I want to live in the moment, I want to play and I trust in God that you know, things will be good down the line and I will be healthy. And you know, either way, it's so tough man. So I just I wish him the best as he goes to make uh make a decision and as he recovers and uh hope that he gets some time with his, his family and loved ones to help him make that decision.
Speaker 2:Yeah, man uh, just like you said, prayers up to him, and you know you hate to see things like that happen, so I just hope he makes the best decision for him. Whatever that decision is, you know, I hope he feels solid in it and he's able to continue doing it, living life in a healthy way.
Speaker 1:Dj. We got our culture section. Yes, sir, culture section, let's just get into it. Man, some crazy shit's going on. Shannon Sharp's going on Instagram Live while he's over there getting freaky live. While he's over there getting freaky, shannon Sharp was accidentally on Instagram live while he was engaging in sexual activities. All of his Instagram live subscribers, those who tuned in, heard some moans and some groans from Unc and his lady Michelle.
Speaker 1:Unk and his lady, michelle Unk, was over there handling business, over there laying pipe, and was on Instagram Live. And about 30 seconds in, you just hear his other phone going off, yes, and folks trying to get a hold of him. And him nor Michelle did not hear those phones, man, they were engaged.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, uncle Shea. Shea was in there getting it in and talking nasty, hey man. But you know he's a grown man. I hate that he got caught up with the slip-up. I don't know how you get on Instagram live without there's a couple steps you got to go through, but whatever happened, it happened. I was grown you know what I'm saying engaging in grown folks' activities that are not meant for the Internet, so he's got to be more careful next time.
Speaker 2:Man, it was was funny, and they usually just get promotion on the show for those little. You know those. I don't know what those things is. They be talking about the blue shoes or something they be having going on him and ocho like to have the little late night, uh, nightcap discussions.
Speaker 1:You know it's a, it's a lot, it's a lot of sex talk going on there. So it was. You know, it was in the theme of the show and the conspiracy is which Shannon addressed it when he issued his apology on the nightcap was that folks said he did it on purpose, which folks are, you know, saying because they accused them of being homosexual when he stepped out of the car with his little orange purse or whatever that bag he was I forget what color it was. That was the accusation. So, folks, your conspiracy theory theorizing, just like the Drake leak. You know whether he did it on purpose or not. Did Shannon? Did he turn on that IG live on purpose to let motherfuckers know? Hey, I'm here, I'm with what Ocho said, I'm with Michelle, he with Michelle, not Michael.
Speaker 2:Bro, no Unc defending the allegations, he like hey man, uh-uh. But no, unc got three kids, he got grandkids. Why people thought Unc defending the allegations he like hey man, uh-uh, but no, unc got three kids, he got grandkids. Why people thought Unc was sweet like that. Now see, joe Budden said something that you know. That might be more of what I thought people were saying, not necessarily, but I'm not going to, you know, repeat that. You know that was just between Joe Budden and Unc. All I know is Unk was in there getting it in dog. What did Joe Budden say? We'll have to look that up, man, I don't you know. Joe Budden referred to it as Unk was defending that he might have been a part of the community, not necessarily saying that he was with Michael, but that he might enjoy Michael and Michelle. That's what he was defending.
Speaker 1:That's what.
Speaker 2:Joe Budden said Unk was defending. That's what he was defending. But I don't agree with that man. I think Hawk just made a mistake and he was in there doing what he do. You know what I'm saying, hey man be you, hawk, in other news.
Speaker 1:So Diddy was taken into federal custody and you know I haven't done enough research on the allegations. What's going on, you know? All I know is that Diddy got some weird shit in his history that he's been doing. The accusations are such that he's a really bad guy and so I don't know, I can't really speak on it. But I'll let you take your piece as this is. Yeah, this is kind of more in your mode of expertise.
Speaker 2:It's crazy. You know, the old saying is, sometimes you live long enough to see your heroes become villains. I'm not saying that Diddy was ever really one of my heroes, but he might have been somebody's. He was a prominent role in the black community man. It's just sad and unfortunate to see what's going on, but really, what really startled me. I don't know if the sex trafficking and all that stuff. We'll see how this plays out. Obviously they held him without bond $50 million bond. They held him without bond $50 million bond. They held him without bond, which is crazy, like they won't. You know what I'm saying? Well, his bond got denied. My bad, didn't hold him without bond. Bond got denied, which is like.
Speaker 2:I mean obviously paying 10% of $50 million would be no problem for Dibby. He'd be right back out, and so they're keeping him there.
Speaker 2:And I feel like that's hard to do with a figure like Diddy, which is like it's tough. But what I really thought was strange was the thousand bottles of baby oil and lube, like why a thousand bottles? A thousand bottles. Either he got the biggest slip and slide in the world or it's some strange thing and he's going crazy. They going crazy with the freak offs up there. I don't some strange thing. He's going crazy. They're going crazy with the freak offs up there. I can't understand what's going on. I don't know what's going on, but a thousand bottles A seize. This ain't even telling you what was used. This is a thousand bottles of seize. They got that on hand at wherever he was at. Why would you have that many?
Speaker 1:bottles. That's a lot of bottles, baby. A thousand bottles of baby oil on the wall. A thousand bottles of oil on the wall I don't know.
Speaker 2:We'll see how this plays out. I don't really have much else to say about it. The thousand bottles of baby oil and they have found firearms and stuff like that, which is it's a lot. So I mean you know that, whatever yeah, he's been doing, but I'm sure they're gonna find out and you know. So we'll see.
Speaker 1:We'll see how this plays out yeah, whatever he's got he had going on, there's got going on. The shit's, shit's disgusting. You know a thousand bottles of baby oil that just you know screams that. You know there's more people involved in what's going on. I think that that's you know. It almost reminds me a little bit, and I don't know like the details, of the Epstein stuff, but like you know, folks were incriminated from from that. And so you know, think about, like the cultural leader that that Diddy is, you know, hope that it was. You know, whatever he was doing these crimes he's committing, that they were done, you know, on his own, and that other cultural leaders, especially in the black community and in hip hop, you know aren't don't end up and it doesn't come to light that they're a part of this whole, this whole thing, because that would that would just be be terrible man. And there you have it, folks. Another episode of the group chat. Until next time We'll see you.
Speaker 2:Peace.
