Summary

Deebo Samuel and Joe Thomas discuss the 2026 NFL Combine's record-breaking speed metrics, debate Joe's historical 40-yard dash times, and pivot to discussing Floyd Mayweather's financial situation, tax implications for high-earning athletes, and FDA approval of foods and medications banned in other countries.

Insights
  • NFL players benefit significantly from automatic tax withholding on contracts, unlike independent earners who must manage large tax liabilities on lump-sum payments
  • Modern NFL prospects are faster and stronger due to advanced training technology and early specialization starting in elementary school, not genetic evolution
  • High-net-worth individuals can appear financially distressed despite substantial income if lifestyle expenses exceed cash flow management capabilities
  • FDA approval standards differ significantly from international regulatory bodies, with U.S. agencies approving foods and drugs banned elsewhere due to funding relationships with pharmaceutical companies
  • Defensive backs face increasing challenges covering receivers as athletic performance metrics improve across the league

I've just been made to fit. The moment you look at the whole picture, the case collapsed. What if the truth was disguised by a story we chose to believe? Oh my God, I think she might be innocent. Listen to Doubt, The Case of Lucy Letby on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Get on over here to the 2026 combine. Listen, they said the 2026 NFL combine prospects were the fastest draft class of all time. Everybody was all time. Number one, except for the quarterbacks, who was number two. Joe, I'm not going to lie to you. I saw something as I was looking through the post where you were talking about your speed. And in this post, someone wrote down that you were actually not as fast as you said you were. They marked you as a 4-6-2. I remember Mike Mayock marked you as a 4-6-2. and he said he's got to study a little more tape on you Joe and then I ain't going to say the rest because it's in favor of me no what did he say go ahead what did he say I can't read that good so he said and then he said I'm very worried about him I'm watching the tape I don't know what I'm seeing the speed is not perfect he can run a little bit but everyone, but he can't run good enough. That's what it said. I might be lying. Why are you looking at me like that? Why are you looking at me like that? Because. I might have changed it up a little bit. I might have got the words mixed up and added a couple of the words and said some other things. Let me see. Let me see. Let me look at it again, Joe. Just look at it. Bump that, D-Bow. it's not about me right now. It's not about me. It's not about me. Joe, it is about you. It's about these kids. It's about these kids. Hold up, Joe. Don't you try and deflect and all that when I'm talking junk. Why are you talking junk? I remember a 46-2. I was a cornerback. Mike Mayer. Hey, listen. Listen. Go ahead. Go ahead. Jared said that. Played 12 years in the league, man. You know, you know. I played 12 years in the league, man. On the island, man. I played 12 years in the league on the island, man. Joe, is it a real time, Joe? I played 12 years in the island, man. That's not the real time. Joe, it's a real time, Joe. No, it's not. Yeah, it is, Joe. No, it's not. No, it's not. It was unofficial. It was an official 4-5. Oh, it was unofficial, though. I was an official 4-5. See, it was an official 4-5. Hey, Chad, we got to look up all Joe's stats. Look it up, look it up. Look it up. Look it up. I want unofficial only. I don't want nothing official. Look it up. I want official stats. I don't want nothing official. This is crazy. Joe, Joe, these boys out here averaging the highest. They averaging a 4-4 at the DBM receiver. Joe, I don't even know if you could have got up to them at that 4-6, man. It would have just been like... D-Bo. Can I tell you something? They'd have been separating, Joe. Can I tell you something? For one thing, I'm fast. For sure, I'm fast. And for another thing, I went seventh overall, regardless of running that bull at that combine with the blowback. Because they went to my pro day and they saw I'm 4-3. I am 4-3. 4-3-4. 4-3-7. 4-3-4. One of the two. But that's neither here nor there. You know what's official? You can look at how many interceptions I got in the league. How many is that? 29. At running a 4-6, you say? Get out of here, kids. They said you was playing against Cincinnati twice. Nope. I was playing against. They was throwing you the ball, they said. I was playing against Matthew Stafford was trying to throw the ball to A.J. Green, and I'm booking that shit. Mm-hmm. You played him one time, what, every five years, Joe? Nope. Every year, Florida-Georgia game. The biggest tailgating party in the world in Jacksonville. We talking about pro, Joe. How you going to go back to college and you gave me pro numbers? How you going to switch it up, Joe? What you doing, Joe? Come on, Joe. Don't do this to me. Don't make me feel it. Okay, when I play AJ, we play them twice a year. Twice a year. Yeah, but Andy Dalton was throwing to him. Come on, stop it. He was throwing that bit to me. Stop it. He was throwing that. Andy Dalton. Exactly. That's the point. He was throwing it to you. No, because I was on his act. I'm picking that. No. Not Joe. Hey, Joe. What about my first? You know what? Look up my first pick. Oh, now you want to look at things. That was against Big Ben. Now you want to look at things. Listen, Joe, I'm on Tahir, man. You was there. You was there, too. They got a receiver over there in Georgia, man. You was on the bench. Zachariah. You was on the bench watching me run up and down. 20 reps, Joe. How many reps did you throw up at 225, Joe? What'd I do? Let me not overstep now. I don't know. What'd I do? 10, 11, 12? What'd I do? Five? I don't know. I don't even know if I got it off my chest anymore. I don't even know if I hit 225 no more. Messing with y'all. Y'all let me know, Chad, since D-Bo know everything. Hey, Chad. I think it hit my chest and my feet kicked up, actually. I think it kicked my feet up. My man is... For first thing, my man got the... He's repping that gym for sure. Got his back going crazy. I know, yes. He's got the pad under his back. What's the back pad? I'm not hip. But he's throwing that weight up. That's a fact. Throwing it. How many reps you said you got Joe? Hey, chat, how many reps did Joe get? Y'all let me know, man. How many reps? Y'all tell me how many reps y'all think Joe got, man. Or tell me what it said. I mean, we'll take a quarter rep if he was a quarter off his chest. Honestly, I can't. We'll take it. How many reps did I get? What did I get, B-Bo? You tell me. You don't know. I don't know. I'm asking you, Joe. I think I got 18 reps. I think I got 18 reps. What was you weighing, Joe? I think I was wearing 190, like 190, probably 190. Hey, Joe. Hmm? This man ain't nothing but 180, Joe. Twanky. He threw up Twanky, Joe. I never said I was the strongest man in the world. Hey, Joe, he ran a 4-2-1, Joe. He ran a 4-2-1 for real? No, I'm just talking. I'm making up numbers right now. Okay. God, I was about to say. Oh, my God. Okay, he's for sure way faster than me. I'm not KT I can't I'm not messing with him Them dudes The D-backs That ran the 4-4 Like The combine numbers bro Are ridiculous The combine numbers Are ridiculous I think now The one that they're doing I mean They're Everybody's getting Bigger Stronger Faster Like It's not It's not More advancements in technology More advancements Training Training These dudes are preparing For these 40 yard dashes They run in 40s electric time since they've been in the seventh grade, sixth grade, like vertical jumps, all of this stuff. They're not, they're not new to this. They're true to this. They know exactly how they're going to get their starts. They know their times. They know they're locked in. So like, this is just just the evolution. We see these kids now when I'm watching my Instagram, the basketball, eighth grade dudes, just literally look behind the head, boom, dunking it. I'm like, oh my goodness. When I was in eighth grade, me and my boys, we would be so happy. We were trying to slap the backboard when we did our layup. You know what I'm saying? I'm like, oh, yeah, oh, yeah, slap glass. Now dudes is coming through behind the head, dunking. I'm like, okay, there was only one dude I knew that could dunk in middle school around my way. And that man was Navarro Bowman. Do you know Navarro Bowman? The linebacker, he played for San Francisco 49ers. Yeah, I know. He was in Vegas for the arm wrestling thing. Him and Patrick Willis were sitting right next to each other looking like the twins, looking like the twin linebackers, smashing shit. That dude, Navarro Bowman, I was in the seventh grade. He's one year older than me. He was the only eighth grade dude around the way that he was dunking. We played middle school basketball against his team, Drew Freeman, against my team, Eugene Burroughs. And that was the first time I seen a dude in the eighth grade come down the court with two hands. Hey, Joe. Hey, Joe. Yes. Joe, let me interrupt you for a minute. You know Covenant Life, right? Yes. Covenant Life said NFL combine 40-yard dash. Oh, Lord. 4.57 to a 4.62. So it's official combine numbers. She looked it up on you. You ran a 4.62. Damn. except for that's your pro day you ran a 4-4-3 but but I'll take it we appreciate you for being our we appreciate you thank you for coming that 4-4-3 was hand time Joe tell the truth shame the devil was it hand time Joe? it was I don't care and the man that you had doing the hand time, he had a trick finger that didn't work all the time. See? See, that's wild. That's crazy. That's I heard through the grapevine. It's all good. That's what I'm saying, Joe. I ain't saying it. That's what they said. But you know me, I said you ran a 4-4-3, Joe. Nope. You know what? I don't even care. I don't even care anymore. It's irrelevant. It's irrelevant. Damn, Joe. It's irrelevant. It's okay. Hey, Joe. Joe. It's okay. You're going to the Hall of Fame, Joe, but you're still holding on to this 40 times for the rookie year, Joe. All I know is- It's in your heart. It's there. Hey, Joe. Hey. I'm literally- Listen, talk to our Lord and say it, Joe. Oh, no, for sure. Remove that from your heart. Joe, remove that from your heart. We got to let it go. Love. Love heals all, Joe.

You better men for less. Come on, Joe. Let it go. All right. You know what? It's over. I'm over it. I'm over it. Yo, look here, man. They saying Floyd Mayweather might be broke. See, that money done booked three fights in 2026. And Paul Logan said he still owe him a million and a half. My man 49, he got three fights lined up in the next what? Logan Paul, how you owe Logan Paul a million and a half? That's crazy. You got three fights lined up in the next eight months. You got Mike Tyson, April, Mike Zem something in June, and Manny Pacquiao in September. Yes. Look, 2017, wasn't they saying that – yeah, 2017, they were saying he needed that money to Conor McGregor fight in 2017 to pay off the IRS. He backed that down though and denied it, showing, what was it, a $100 million check from 2015 that he, I guess, got the cash. Bro, ain't no way I'm forgetting the cash. $100 million check, bro. No No No This is what I going to tell you I not going to be out here counting that man pockets but I will say this Some people broke is different than other people broke So he could be like... He's saying he ain't broke at all. I don't think he's broke at all. If Floyd Mayweather has $20 million, it's depending on what your lifestyle is. He's spending $2 million a month. that's going to go out. You know what I'm saying? Unless you got your money making money for yourself and doing things. Money, it's easy to spend money. You taking private jets and you living and moving and shaking. I've seen just talking about things like watches. You know it's easy to spend money, Hanjo. $30 million watches.

Wouldn't you know it, Michael Schumacher is also a Capricorn Sun, Cancer Moon. The story of the sport's most consequential driver's strike. We have one man who, upon hearing that he was going to be fired, freaked out, and apparently climbed out the window of the bathroom. And was Daniel Ricardo's illustrious F1 career, a success story, a cautionary tale, or some combination of both. He started getting all this attention, and he maybe started to think, I'm bigger than this. I'm better. And plenty of other mishaps, scandals, and sagas that have made Formula One a delightful, decadent dumpster fire for more than 75 years. Listen to No Grip on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. In 2023, a story gripped the UK, evoking horror and disbelief. The nurse who should have been in charge of caring for tiny babies is now the most prolific child killer in modern British history. Everyone thought they knew how it ended. A verdict, a villain, a nurse named Lucy Letby. Lucy Letby has been found guilty. But what if we didn't get the whole story? The moment you look at the whole picture, the case collapses. I'm Amanda Knox, and in the new podcast, Doubt, the case of Lucy Letby, we follow the evidence and hear from the people that lived it to ask what really happened when the world decided who Lucy Letby was. No voicing of any skepticism or doubt. It'll cause so much harm at every single level if the British establishment of this is wrong.

I now have several terabytes of an MSS officer, no doubt, no question, of his life. And that's a unicorn. No one had ever seen anything like that. It was unbelievable.

But what happened to Clayton after the show made even bigger headlines. It began as a one-night stand and ended in a courtroom, with Clayton at the center of a very strange paternity scandal.

He identified Jermaine Hudson as the perpetrator. Jermaine was sentenced to 99 years. I'm like, Lord, this can't be real. I thought it was a mistaken identity. The best lie is partial truth.

So they signed me to like the biggest exclusive rights non-starter deal. I'm like, yo, I am rich. I'm not about to have to ever work again, right? Because I grew up my whole life believing rich people didn't pay taxes. That's what I was told. That's what I was told my whole life. Rich people didn't pay taxes.

They're going to get there, Debo. I do. You got to come learn. Come aware. That was the straw that broke the camel's back. That's the way the world turns, man. Everybody find out when they got a job. Because my worst part was I never had a job. That was my first job ever was in the league. Oh, well, I had a job since I was 12. I was working since I was 12. Well, you were getting hit on taxes with that? Or were you just doing some stuff? Were you going? So I didn't get taxed off that. It was like I was getting paid out of petty cash.

You don't even know what British Knights is, do you? No. Okay. Okay. Y'all, hey, make sure y'all put this up when y'all post. Put the British Knight up. But, Joe, I don't know what it was. If it was, I just couldn't take the smell of money or the smell of expensive things. But the smell of this shoe, bro, actually made me nauseous the first time I actually opened the box, bro. Because I was used to that old Top Gun smell, you know, the hard bottoms. Joe, I was, I had, you ain't never, you heard of Stacey Adams? Yes, I heard of Stacey. It's a dress shoe, right? Yes. No. That was my gym shoe, brother. No, D-Bow. They made tennis shoes. Come on. Joe, on my daddy, Joe. Joe, you was rich before you ever got rich. You just got rich. Wow, Debo. They had you on the Stacey Adams sneaker jumps. It's crazy. Hey, hold up, Joe. That was an upgrade from the Top Gun. What you talking about? See, I got to see the Top Gun first. I got to see the Top Gun first. Oh, bro. Damn. Okay. Bro, when I say the hard bottoms, bro, I mean, you can break rocks on them motherfuckers, man, and it ain't going to damage this shoe. I'm going to look the BK Nights British Nights British Nights British Nights brother British Nights I'm trying to tell you bro it's something something different look it up man tell you once you look it up man alright matter of fact you got you got children right yes yes what do you feed your kids man oh we got we got 10 foods man that I guess a lot of folks eat man but it's banned in other countries dude like what is this list right here? So this is something I could really get into, Joe. You know what I'm saying? Because a lot of people, Americans, they just unaware of what's in this stuff, man. Like you look at this right here, you got Coffee Mate, like the actual, like that creamer, I guess it has an increase because of the chemicals that's in there, dude. It got an increase of heart disease, type 2 diabetes, hell, even Alzheimer's, dude. but the drug company's got something for that so it don't matter man then you got the fruit loops with the oot it used to be fruit but they probably took that out because they just started adding all them food colors you got you got a red 40 you got a yellow five and six um but like in other countries that banned they actually make it without that in other countries because they know it makes your kids sick causes neurological issues behavior issues you name it bro like it does a little bit everything it even damages like dna inflammation like hyperactivity in kids like but hey the drug companies got something for that too right i tell you deep look gatorade Mountain Dew, Ritz crackers, Skittles, Twix, instant mashed potatoes, bro. Stove top stuffies. Even our meats in the USA. Dude, they banned over there. Beef, chicken, pork, farm-raised salmon. Like, you can go on and on, dude. Like, why? So why does the FDA even allow this? Yo, Joe, why did the FDA even allow this? Why do you think they allow this, dude? Do you know why? You know why. I know why. Why everything's loud. Dude, FDA is funded by the pharmaceutical, medical device, and drug companies. Hence, the FDA is very accommodating. I'll say accommodating. I won't say the other word. I'll just say they're accommodating. Okay? The hoots. They, listen, they regularly approve medicines that you hear on the commercials, bro. You hear on the commercials. the side effects. It's this, this, that. This, Mike O'Blind. Mike O'Blind can't see the kids ever again. It's approved. It's crazy. But look. That makes sense now. Why? They might be in the backflips and then you might not be able to see ever again. Thank you. Saying it real quiet real fast. Then you might not be able to see ever again in your whole entire life. I'm like, damn. But it makes sense. Why? Because they are being funded by the actual businesses that they're approving, dude. Like, they don't really care. We don't, they don't really care about American health. They looking at the numbers, bro. And when it come down to it, if this product can make billions of dollars and we lose a few lives in the process and end up having to pay, I don't know, maybe two, three, four million, $100 million, it's cool because we're going to make like 50, 60 billion. Yeah. When you start talking about bees, they don't give a dang. Bro, tell me about it. What? Bro, people have gone missing for less. So when we start talking about real stuff like, brother, come on, man. The biggest guy in cartel is government. They running all this. Trillions and trillions. You can send trillions in dollars somewhere. What are we talking about? I'm spooked. You can do anything. Fuck out of here. But listen, this is the crazy thing. Like, you can say, well, Deebo, honestly, though, it's the people that I talk to that's like, oh, that's saying that that's a possible side effect. Like, it could possibly happen. They're just saying that to, you know, to just cover themselves. And it pisses me off so bad because it's not like a possible side effect. They're not just covering their ass. They had to put it on there because the side effects actually happened to somebody. That means somebody actually died from it. When they run the trials, they have to put it in there. Somebody went blind. Somebody went deaf. Somebody passed away. Like. Got to. They got to. Here's a crazy thing. So. Water. Prime example. Oh. D-Bow went water. Listen, I want to go real simple. You went real simple. Water. Real simple. I'm here. I'm here. I'm here. So water can actually kill you. Too much water can kill you. Yes. That's facts. Yes. Yes. It's called acute, acute delusional. something is called hyponeutropia whatever it is so basically what it does is it throws off your sodium levels your concentration of sodium which affects your muscles your nerves your brain all that and it can kill you but the reason listen to me people the reason there is no warning on water is because when water is used as it should normally be used there is no risk of death you're seeing these side effects of these issues because if the medicine is used as it's normally supposed to be used you could possibly have all of those so you're telling me something that i use as you prescribe me to use it can actually get me up out of here as normally yes yep yep I'm here with you, D-Bo. But you know what we said with Summershut. What the hell we going to do about it? Hey, I make sure I get all my... I go to the farm that I get my stuff from. I see it. I've been there. I went through the whole process. I see all that. I try to do everything I can. I ain't going to lie. I mess up sometimes. You know what I'm saying? You know what I'm saying? I like to smoke me a little cigar here and there. But here's the thing. Listen, yes. Cigarettes and all that other stuff got a whole bunch of chemicals in it. Cigars is tobacco. You know why cigars is tobacco? It's just straight tobacco. Because they rate cigars. You start putting a chemical in a cigar, a true connoisseur is going to taste that. It's going to drop the rating. These cigarettes, they don't care. Ready for a different take on Formula One? Look No Further Than No Grip, a new podcast tackling the culture of motor racing's most coveted series. Join me, Lily Herman, as we dive into the underexplored pockets of F1, including the astrology of the current grid. Lewis Hamilton, Capricorn Sun, Cancer Moon. Wouldn't you know it, Michael Schumacher is also a Capricorn Sun, Cancer Moon. The story of the sport's most consequential driver's strike. We have one man who, upon hearing that he was going to be fired, freaked out and apparently climbed out the window of the bathroom. And was Daniel Ricciardo's illustrious F1 career a success story, a cautionary tale, or some combination of both? He started getting all this attention, and he maybe started to think, I'm bigger than this, I'm better. And plenty of other mishaps, scandals, and sagas that have made Formula One a delightful, decadent dumpster fire for more than 75 years. Listen to No Grip on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. In 2023, a story gripped the UK, evoking horror and disbelief. The nurse who should have been in charge of caring for tiny babies is now the most prolific child killer in modern British history. Everyone thought they knew how it ended. A verdict, a villain, a nurse named Lucy Letby. Lucy Letby has been found guilty. But what if we didn't get the whole story? The moment you look at the whole picture, the case collapses. I'm Amanda Knox, and in the new podcast, Doubt, the case of Lucy Letby, we follow the evidence and hear from the people that lived it to ask what really happened when the world decided who Lucy Letby was. No voicing of any skepticism or doubt. It'll cause so much harm at every single level if the British establishment of this is wrong. Listen to Doubt, the case of Lucy Letby on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. China's Ministry of State Security is one of the most mysterious and powerful spy agencies in the world. But in 2017, the FBI got inside. This is Special Agent Regal, Special Agent Bradley Hall. This MSS officer has no idea the U.S. government is on to him. But the FBI has his chats, texts, emails, even his personal diary. Hear how they got it on the Sixth Bureau podcast. I now have several terabytes of an MSS officer, no doubt, no question, of his life. And that's a unicorn. No one had ever seen anything like that. It was unbelievable. This is a story of the inner workings of the MSS and how one man's ambition and mistakes opened its vault of secrets.

But what happened to Clayton after the show made even bigger headlines. It began as a one-night stand and ended in a courtroom, with Clayton at the center of a very strange paternity scandal.

This is a story about a horrendous lie that destroyed two families. Late one night, Bobby Gumpwright became the victim of a random crime. He pulls the gun, tells me to lie down on the ground. He identified Jermaine Hudson as the perpetrator. Jermaine was sentenced to 99 years. I'm like, Lord, this can't be real. I thought it was a mistaken identity. The best lie is partial truth. For 22 years, only two people knew the truth. Until a confession changed everything. I was a monster. Listen to Burden of Guilt Season 2 on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. I'm going to get you addicted. They don't rate no cigarette, bruh. Oh. Think about it. Puffing cigars, you got ratings on that. You got this. You got that. These cigarettes. George Burns lived to be, what was it, 101, 102? You know what got him? Man fell. Broke a hip. That's what got him. He was known for smoking at least five, six cigars, up to 15 cigars a day. You know who George Burns is? Yeah. Okay. And did not get cancer. Anybody else, you smoke that many cigarettes, not even cigarettes, bro. One cigar is probably equivalent to a whole pack. I don't know those people, but I don't inhale. I got some people on my mom's side of the family. My man, please bless. Everything's still good. He's smoking the most cigarettes I've ever seen, and he's still chilling. So it could be some people who smoke one cigarette probably get it. You know what I'm saying? What do you got? Different, different, different. That's the drug warnings. Everybody's different. That's the drug warning. For sure, everybody's different. Yep. It's not meant, like, because I know some people that's smoking right now to the day that still ain't got no, and so I'm like, God, you are fighting. So all them drug warnings on them things, y'all listen, it's there because it happened to somebody. Okay? That means it could happen to you. I don't want to get rid of whatever it is so bad that I'm willing to risk my life for it. I'm sorry. I can't do it. Joe! What's up, coach? You know what time it is.

Oh, you mads. $5. Said, shout out, guys. Which receiver do you want us to take? Tate, Lemon, Cooper Jr., and Ted Hurst. I personally want Carnell Tate. What are your thoughts? Who do you want them to take? It's about, you can want them to take whoever you want them to take. It's about who will be available. And who do you see on this list being available? And who do you see as being not maybe worth going at that position that we're at? Who you like? I don't know. I think it really depends on how they fit into what we're doing, what we're building. Anywhere. If it's anywhere, all of them. I can take any one of them. I'm going to go with, let me see. What did my man say? Thompson. I like Tate, obviously. I think Tate's the best, but I like Jordan Tyson. I like Jordan Tyson, and then third, I like Lemon. I think all three of them dudes would be amazing on the squad. So first, Tate, obviously, but I think Tate's going to be the first one taking. So if either one, Tyson or Lemon are there, I like them. Okay. Okay. Moving on, moving on. Covenant Life. $10. She said, Joe, I saw a clip of you saying, I lift weights. Oh, damn. See. And someone's hit you and you said, damn. What was that about? Joe. Cover the life. It was mic'd up. I was mic'd up. I said, I lift weights because I hit somebody first. You got to watch the whole thing. You can chop and screw everything and make it look crazy. So I didn't go straight from I lift weights to when he pushed me on the ground. That was a whole different play. I was guarding the receiver. But you wasn't lifting weights after that. You didn't even think about them weights when they pushed you down, huh? He lifts weights, too. That's what I do. That's what I do. He lifts weights also. Both of us. It could be two things that weren't right. I lift weights and he lifts weights, too. Two things could be correct. So, Debo, I'm backpedaling. I'm backpedaling. I'm playing corner. I'm backpedaling. And I'm thinking it's a pass play and it's a receiver. He running like he about to run a fly. And then he gets up close to me and then starts blocking and pushes me. so I wasn't ready I'm thinking I'm about to guard him for a pass and he gets up on me and then push me and I fall down and stand up and it's right in front of their sideline and I'm embarrassed I look over damn and everybody sees me and starts laughing on their bench so I was like it was all good but they caught me I was mic'd up and that's what the video she's seen okay but I did hit somebody in that video she said your speed was a 22 she said I love it sir thank you I was thank you because I'm fast listen Joe alright you didn't get to 22 fast. You just ran 22. It took you about 40, let's say 55 yards to get to 22. No. 22 miles per hour. I was floating. We're back with Covenant Life, $10. She said, let me hear you sing it.

It's teal. No, it's not. No. Look at this show. Look. Bruh. Look. Give me something else that's blue. Blue. I'm telling you. Let me show you my... It's a... Joe, you're going to say you're not...

You know what I'm going to start bringing up? You know what I'm going to start bringing up at the beginning of the show for you? Come to this in. $10 said, I want to hear Joe. Joe, if he know, is he a still or is he a brown? Oh mama. Oh mama. Sing it. Oh mama, I'm in fear for my life forever long on the low. Doom, doom, doom. Doom, doom. Okay, you know it, you know it. I got you, I got you. I'm so far from my home. All right, I got you, Joe. I'm in fear. Okay. I got you, Joe. I got you, Joe. Okay. Okay. Covenant Light back at it again, Joe. Covenant Light, did you get your jersey from Joe Covenant Light? Did you get your jersey? Joe, I don't see her. I don't see her. She said nothing right here, Joe. I don't see her. She said nothing right here, Joe. Joe, Covenant Light back $10. We got it. She said, Joe, which was the toughest matchup for you? A.J. Green Julio Jones Antonio Brown Odell Beckham that's not even in the conversation it was yes it was prime Odell yes he was Calvin you telling me Odell over A.B. I'm telling you he's in this conversation I'm seeing the names dude and I was guarding Odell Beckham I'm distracting go ahead from okay matter of fact I'm gonna let you talk about all of them and explain why or Calvin Johnson and explain why Omar said Browns will get the loudest boo during the draft. Yes, they will. You in Pittsburgh. In Pittsburgh. It's going to be real. Give me AJ. Give me AJ Green. Over all of them. No, I'm saying. I'm asking you. AJ Green. Overall, give me who you got as the toughest matchup overall. For me, it was Antonio Brown. Exactly. For me, it was Antonio Brown. Why? Because it was a little bit of both. When I was there too, he was quick. He was going to catch everything. Speedy as a mug. And same time, don't let Big Ben was the quarterback and make him scramble. And now I covered the comeback. Oh, he's going to turn that into a go real fast. And now I'm hit regardless. So I think it was AB being able to run routes, everything he could do, his hands, his feet, being able to be quick off the line. He's quicker than fast, but he's both. But he's super duper quick. You couldn't get hands on him off the line. And then on top of him having Big Ben there, if I was able to cover the route, he'll pump that during, make him have a little bit more time, turn it to a different route. I'm like, oh, I can't cover this long. So then being able to ad-lib was the craziest thing ever. So I'll go AB for show because it was him and it was a little bit of Ben that was putting me in the blender. Who you got next? Next, I would probably go... I only played Calvin one time. So I'm going to have to probably go Julio Jones. Julio Jones? Julio Jones. Okay. Because he's probably the big, he's the probably fastest, big. Him and Calvin were kind of the same. Strong, big, fast, could jump high, could do everything. So I just had to basically just try to get in position to stay in front. and then I'm gonna go with AJ and Odell kind of the same Odell when he was prime Odell the Giants he was one of the quickest dudes off the line he was catching everything taking those slants to the house so he was very very tough to car and then AJ I don't know how him and Andy I just had to cover him twice a year and flukishly he done caught the game winner on me one time on a post I don't know how he could just go up and get a little bit of everything so damn you caught it a Fluke, that's crazy. It wasn't fluke, but it was... You said flukish. Flukish because I would be right there. And then he would sometimes be able to still catch it. So I felt like that was fluke. But no, it's just because he was nice. I ain't about to diminish my skills. That was fluke. That was fluke, man. Took peanuts off my head. God. We got... We got... $10 from MikelRandall8843. He said, where do y'all think A.J. Brown going this season? Could Pitt be on the list? And if y'all send the jerseys, where do I send the money to collect me and a Debo and Joe Pitt jersey? Listen, you got to be as dedicated as Covenant Life is to us. That's what you got to do. That's it, baby. Chacking the Covenant Life. That's it. Look here. Where is A.J. Brown going? I don't know, but it damn sure ain't going to be Pitt. It damn sure ain't going to be Pitt. Because I don't need, we don't need, we don't need no disgruntledness. We ain't got time for disgruntledness. We talking about the study under the receivers. A.J. Brown would be the study. We'd be like, he's very good, but we don't need him here right now. We're not good enough yet. We're not, we don't have the foundation set. Not having the camp. can't do it, won't do it. Won't do it. But he's going to be good. He's going to be somewhere. For sure, he got to go to a squad that got a solid quarterback and a solid foundation. Uh-uh. Foxy, we got another one. $5 from Foxy Mama. Four, three, two, one. Said the Falcons will get the loudest boot for hiring Stefanski. In Pittsburgh? No. In Pittsburgh, after that, I understand what you're saying. If that was in... Nah, it don't matter. If it was in Cleveland, if it was in Cleveland, maybe, but I don't even see that happening in Cleveland because they're going to be happy they got rid of me. So, I don't... They might just start laughing. Yeah, ain't nobody tripping on the Falcons. How long we see them? Once every four, five, six, seven, eight, ten years? Something, I don't know. Not too often. Not too often. Not too often at all. That's it right there, Joe. Look here. Man, being real. Debo, we want to thank you for joining us on this episode of Debo and Joe.
