**Shannon Sharpe** (0:01)
No, look, the Lord has blessed me 50 times more than what he should. Okay, a thousand times. My life shouldn't be this good. I should not have been able to go to places coming from where I came from. I shouldn't have been able to go to places, do, achieve what I've been able to achieve. He put two of us, he put two guys with no running water, no indoor plumbing in a same house, in a thousand square foot, 3,500 people. He say both of y'all going to the league. Damn. Clock that, man. Clock it. Yeah, clock that. I can't, man. I can't sit back there and not do anything and not say anything when I see you do it wrong. Wrong is wrong, right is right. And everybody ain't going to agree. Because I remember times, look, there was a, when the Colin Kaepernick, we talked about it when no one else would touch it. Chad, y'all know, if you watch Undisputed, we started the first, basically the first six months of the year, we had at least at bare minimum two topics on Colin Kaepernick. There were shows in a 10-segment show in two and a half hours, six to seven of the segments was about cap.
People was clipping what I was saying, getting 10, 15 million views. But the show that I was on wouldn't post it. But we ain't got to talk about that. But I'm just saying, that's how they look at it. And some people like, if I made this much money, that's you.
You want to make all your money and be happy with your people suffering, because that is what they do. They send a lot of money to. All I'm saying, that I came in good conscience. I will give and I will do what I can to try to help my people as many as I can, although I can't save everybody. He man, he didn't give me to have no hundreds of billions of dollars. Because he already know. Yeah. He already know.
It would be covered by us.
You already know, like I said, he gave me just enough. He's like, hey, I know you'll do what you can, what you got. When he took them, how many fish did he have? Two fish and a couple of loaves of bread and paid $5?

**Chad Johnson** (2:27)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

**Shannon Sharpe** (2:28)
He gave me just enough.

**Chad Johnson** (2:31)
Two fish and a loaf of bread.

**Shannon Sharpe** (2:32)
Yeah.
No, I don't see, what y'all want me to do, y'all want me to speak on another man. That ain't what we do. We talk about athletes, what somebody else said, what somebody else, I don't get in the back, Stephen A has his own, Ocho has his own. Stacks and Matt, everybody's doing great things. We don't speak on what they say. We got our own platform. We have our own thoughts and ideas. Y'all, that's what y'all want, that's what y'all want, that's what y'all really want. Y'all want, and we do a great job of that, we'll attack each other. I'm done with that, I'm done. I'll speak on Jaylen Brown and his talents. I'll speak on guys, what they do off the court. If it doesn't interfere with it, if they're not getting in trouble, they're not running afire with the law. Right. I don't care what they do. I don't care if they smoke 20 pounds every day. That ain't got nothing to do with me. That man's averaging 30 Hell, he might need to bring up to 25, and he's averaging 35
I just see how people, I see other races, how they might not like each other. But when it comes time to do a deal or to get something done, or to put up a barrier between you and me.
By any means.
But us, oh man, I ain't work, he said something five, 10 years ago. I ain't working with it. Yeah, we hold grudges, bruh. Yeah, instead of getting this money. Shit, hey, hey, hey, I ain't gon even say nothing. I ain't gon tell.

**Chad Johnson** (4:16)
Go ahead, go ahead, go ahead.

**Shannon Sharpe** (4:18)
They don't know how y'all get money over here at Nightcap. Well, they don't know how y'all, they don't know how y'all get money over here at Nightcap.

**Chad Johnson** (4:27)
Oh, oh, hey, Joe, they can see it.

**Shannon Sharpe** (4:29)

**Chad Johnson** (4:32)
Hey, hey, it's gon be science, huh? What we talking about, huh?

**Shannon Sharpe** (4:41)
You know. Hey, look, we just gon continue to put our head down, work as hard as we possibly can and do what we do.
