Man, it's more disappointment. I'm not mad, I'm disappointed, because I should have known better. You hear me? I gotta stop thinking with my heart, Joe.
**Joe Johnson** (0:26)
You gotta stop thinking with my mind, you hear me?
**Chad Johnson** (0:28)
That's what I'm talking about. Yeah. So there was a young lady, hey, Unc, let me tell you a little story. Tell it, tell it, tell it. I'm listening. Yeah. Hey, Joe, I ain't really no story time type dude, you hear me? Go ahead, go ahead. But I'm gonna share a little story, sophomore.
I was sophomore in high school, Miami Beach Senior High.
There was a young lady, I was dating, and she was one that I wasn't supposed to get serious about. I needed to understand the landscape and where she come from. I needed to understand the way she maneuvered. And Joe, when I was blind to the fact that I was like Ray Charles, my homeboy, they were telling me like, boy, that ain't that. That's just, that's play-play. You hear me?
**Shannon Sharpe** (1:05)
Yeah.
**Chad Johnson** (1:06)
Yeah, and I chose to, boom, I tried to, I could change her. That was my mentality as a youngster. I wasn't a seasoned veteran like I am now.
**Shannon Sharpe** (1:15)
You hear me? Yeah, I hear you.
**Chad Johnson** (1:16)
So, hey, I done took up under my wing, you know? Listen, I'm finna pilot this thing, and you just ride on the side as my co-pilot.
**Shannon Sharpe** (1:24)
Yeah.
**Chad Johnson** (1:25)
Hey, Joe, boy, it took about two weeks, Joe. Man, my homeboy hit me, came and got me a lunch. Hey, Ocho, boy, I walk out here to the park a lot with me.
Boy, what's up, boy? Everything good? And see, I want to show you something. Man, the old basketball player had my girl in the back of the car. What?
**Shannon Sharpe** (1:49)
Man, say it ain't so. You should have knew something. You ain't had no car while you were in the parking lot. So you should have knew something was up.
**Joe Johnson** (1:56)
Boy, he's all up on the carriage.
**Chad Johnson** (2:03)
When I look, I ain't even had to go close. Like her head was up against the rear view window. I'm like, well, God, I mean, damn.
Yeah. That was it. That was it. Now you see how you see how you see y'all reaction, how you think I feel. So that's how I felt. Like just seeing it's a constant memory of that exact moment. Every time I see the bangles.
**Shannon Sharpe** (2:26)
Yeah.
**Chad Johnson** (2:27)
Yeah. Yeah.
**Joe Johnson** (2:27)
Oh man.
**Shannon Sharpe** (2:29)
Yeah.
**Chad Johnson** (2:29)
Cool. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
**Shannon Sharpe** (2:32)
I already know because the windows was up. It was all foggy.
I don't know how you pay.
**Chad Johnson** (2:36)
Yeah. Yeah.
**Shannon Sharpe** (2:37)
Hey, Joe, he all in the window like this here. How you do that? Why you doing me like that? Hey, you remember Hitch? Hey, you remember Hitch? When Hitch called his girl and she rolled the window down.
He's like, no. No.
**Chad Johnson** (2:52)
Yeah.
Yeah. I ain't go that close. I ain't need to go that close. Once I saw a head keep hitting the rear view mirror, I know what time it was.
**Shannon Sharpe** (2:58)
It turns you into a savage though, didn't it?
Ocho, it turns you into a savage, didn't it? After that, you turned into a savage.
**Chad Johnson** (3:04)
Hey, Joe, ever since that moment, I was a savage, Joe.
Listen, I could be honest with you, Joe. I started moving different, Joe. Yeah, I already know. I read a couple of books. I watched a couple of movies. Yeah. I understood. So I went into all situations understanding that this can happen again, so I was able to compartmentalize it, which in the back of my mind, it can happen. Yeah. I ego, no ego, no pride.
**Shannon Sharpe** (3:29)
That's called being scarred, man.
**Chad Johnson** (3:31)
Come on, man. Yeah.
Hey, them scars build character. Them scars make me the man I am today.
**Shannon Sharpe** (3:37)
Ocho, I am so sorry. I'm going to take another swig for you.
**Chad Johnson** (3:41)
Yeah, I appreciate that, but I had to share that story so people can get a better understanding on how it feels to see that.
