Shannon Sharpe (0:05)

When Marvin Harris arrived in Arizona, he had one request, a seeker machine, which is essentially a robotic quarterback that runs about $50,000. The organization declined. Here's former Bingo's head coach Marvin Lewis, adding some context to that decision. Here's Marvin talking about that.

SPEAKER_2 (0:22)

I had something there.

Shannon Sharpe (0:24)

Yeah, go ahead, Bob.

SPEAKER_3 (0:24)

Their director of sports performance, their director of sports performance was with me in Cincinnati.

I was down in the field early, and Shay Thompson is his name. He comes out, and Marvin Harrison comes out, I mean, early. He's got his helmet, and he goes to a whole progression of things to get himself warmed up, his body physically and so forth. And then I'm talking to Shay, and Shay tells me, this dude got one of those machines that can shoot him the ball.

The Cardinals didn't have one, so he bought his own. So he's catching under 200 balls every day after practice. So I think, like Chris just said, he's doing the right things. Now sometimes it's up to the coaching staff to figure out a way to get him the ball.

Shannon Sharpe (1:08)

That's what I'm saying.

SPEAKER_3 (1:10)

Hey.

Shannon Sharpe (1:15)

Hey, you believe the Cardinals.

You draft a guy with the fourth pick in the draft. You invest $40 million, $35, $40 million in him. And you need to tell me on a $40 million investment, you're not willing to invest another $50 million?

SPEAKER_3 (1:31)

50K?

Shannon Sharpe (1:31)

I mean $50,000, excuse me. $50,000, yeah.

Yeah.

Chad Johnson (1:37)

Well, they didn't.

Shannon Sharpe (1:38)

But why don't they?

SPEAKER_2 (1:39)

So he ends up buying it himself.

Chad Johnson (1:43)

Yeah.

SPEAKER_2 (1:44)

Yeah.

Chad Johnson (1:44)

Hey, listen, we done paid you already now. If you want something else, you can go ahead and get that yourself. We got jug machines. Every NFL team has a jug machine on.

Shannon Sharpe (1:54)

But you don't even know if they still use jug machines. I don't even know if they still use jug machines. And then we flip it around, right? So we can spit out the ball, so we can catch the ball. But Ocho, you know, and Joe, I don't know how you guys were, but all the equipment that they have, like in the training room, like a steel machine, a game ready, I bought that my own. Yeah. So I would treat myself. I would get the treatment there. And I go home, eat, by the hour I'll let you- Do it again. Get right back on it. Game ready, steel machine, all that stuff.

Yeah.

I bought me a game ready too, Unc. But in the NBA, Ocho, they will give you equipment to take home with you. They'll get you a game ready. And then when you heal up- Bring it back. You know what I'm saying? You got to get it back. But at the same time, it may be some days, bro, you just might want to just get your normal tech or get the game ready. I got the normal techs too, Joe.

SPEAKER_3 (2:54)

Yeah.

Shannon Sharpe (2:55)

And in the summer. Normal techs. Get you put on to keep it swelling, keep the circulation.

SPEAKER_3 (2:59)

Yeah.

Shannon Sharpe (2:59)

Yeah.

See, mainly, mainly it's good to have all that, especially in the summer time when you ain't in season. So you can still, you know, have your recovery options. I was a guy. I'm like that too, Unc. I had all that stuff, man. You name it. I had it, boy.

Chad Johnson (3:15)

Hey, man, y'all had all the cool gadgets and stuff.

Shannon Sharpe (3:19)

Yeah, man. I'm just trying to stay. I'm just trying to stay on the field. I'm just trying to be the best I possibly can be. Hello.

Ocho, I had hyper big chambers and everything in my crib, bro.

Chad Johnson (3:30)

Oh, boy, you bought one of them things too, boy?

Shannon Sharpe (3:32)

Well, I'm trying to get in there, zip yourself up, take me out, all that.

Chad Johnson (3:36)

Hey, man, Lavernius Coles and Tio had that big ass shit in the dorm room in training camp. I'm like, man, what is y'all doing?

Shannon Sharpe (3:44)

Yeah. That was me. I used to go to them.

I mean, I would go to sleep. So I would go probably like around one o'clock, and I'd go to sleep in there for like an hour and a half, like three, four times a week.

Oh, yeah. Because back then, Joe, them things, they're like more cost effective now. Back then, they was expensive as hell. They're like 150,000, 150,000. I'm like, oh, no, I go ahead and buy me these, I spent $100 for these treatments. Man, it got a whole, it come with a whole oxygen tank to where it pushes oxygen through the hyperbaric chamber to help you recover. It's altitude training. It's almost like you're training in Colorado, like altitude. Yeah.
