because one thing that's interesting i think about you chad and this is kind of
it may be judgment but
it's just me kind of from an outside perspective is even if things are chaotic
and crazy for other
people you're still able to have this sense of humor that things aren't even
not that it doesn't
matter yeah but that it's not affecting you yeah i it's i think because of my
upbringing
and me being able to operate well in a chaotic environment and i'm very
comfortable being
uncomfortable very it doesn't matter what's going it doesn't matter what's
going on i love chaos
and i i operate well in chaos very well it doesn't matter what it is now will
you also create the
chaos just to then slide in and operate in it yes yes think about during my
time playing yeah i was
very chaotic i purposely tried to piss the nfl off purposely because i
understood the game is an
entertainment sport so therefore i'm going to bring just that the entertainment
value part to it they
didn't see it that way but all of a sudden everything i was vilified for now is
a green
light right everybody's celebrating everybody's having fun a good point i
understood what i was
doing and look where you're at now you're in a space where you're still
entertaining right still going
in a little bit of a way you're kind of before your you're kind of before your
time with that yeah
wait and it takes it takes other it's even like with podcasting at first they
thought podcasting was
crazy these people aren't doing they're out here doing we got networks we got
all it is and then you
know as well as anybody i mean half your times when you're doing shows with shannon
you're just sitting
there on your phone and computer he's in a studio sometimes but sometimes you're
showing up from
wherever yeah from your home you just tapped in off a laptop and that's a that's
you know yeah i started
the podcasting early too i think in 2010. let's go terrell owens and i had a
show called the teoto show
and that was that was the first form of podcasting in a sense i think that that
there ever was when you
look back on the on your experience with the bangles what is like obviously you
know the play and
everything like that what was cincinnati like then what was the energy like
then it was good it was
good especially that 2005 year which uh that was the year we were on fire
offensively and obviously
defense they were having takeaways like crazy that was our year if carson didn't
go down in that
first round of the playoffs against the steelers that was our year to host a
trophy that was that year oh my
goodness the city was on fire i could just imagine now hell with with the every
year every year now
with joe burrow there you know you have opportunity you got a chance rudy johnson
was a beast oh yeah
rudy hoosh uh those are some good dudes man matter of fact we have a have a
group chat with half of
everybody in here hoosh is in there i'm in there johnson is in there we we got
carson justin smith is in
that group chat i haven't seen some of these names oh brian simmons in the
group chat i haven't seen
some of these names in so in so long oh look at odell thurman odell was really
good it's wild
us some guys it's like they'll have a great like rudy johnson was huge for a
few he had a couple of
great years oh yeah oh yeah and then you didn't hear about him yeah i don't i
don't know where i
can't remember where rudy went after he left and it's not even a judgment
against him it's just like
that's how it's like things come and go fast and it does huh it does listen
those years go by real
fast very fast damn 11 and five yeah damn yeah we were on fire man wolf and who
was y'all's backup
who came in as backup quarterback yeah who was our backup that year oh john kidna
he now coaches at
lakota east or lakota west high school in uh cincinnati carson palmer's now
coaching in la
i don't know what school he's coaching at and kitten it just could he wasn't it
could y'all didn't
break through that second round no no no man the steelers won that game man
they won that game
oh john that's my guy do you think when you look at your career do you think
you could have operated
differently in some years to get have gotten more out of yourself right we all
look you know because
i'm critical of myself right you know i look back and i want them to do the
best i can even though i
don't know what it is sometimes but i want to do my best and sometimes i'll
look at certain interviews
like i interviewed mark zuckerberg a couple weeks ago from um the facebook guy
right right right and i
like i should have done i knew i could have done better i think i had like a
little bit of a plan but
i think i got nervous and so when i look back on that i'm like man i wish i
would have asked some
things that were more important right things i really wanted to ask but i was
afraid to right
um do you look back in certain years of your career like yeah i could have done
some things
differently at this time either i was younger or i was i mean when i look back
at my career i would
have done everything i did plus more because i had some great ideas that i didn't
get didn't get a
chance to do you know like what do you mean by that i mean just the fun the fun
i would i would
have pushed the envelope even more really just having a good time having a good
time because
listen the nfl is not for long and i had a short window to maximize as much as
i could not out of
myself and out of the nfl and i did i did just that which is one of the reasons
why i'm still going to
this day right pushing forward but looking back you're like man if i didn't
know what i know now
if i'd have known then what i know now then i could have done even more right
yeah most definitely
but that like is that what you mean or or do you mean like physically training
more like do you
no no no no just my approach to the game in general just on field stuff so what
do you why do you feel
like your attitude was different at certain years no i was the same always i
was always authentic
myself what you see right now off camera or on camera it's the same way i was
on field yeah you
know that wasn't it that that wasn't a character that was really me and i just
chose not to conform
and not to behave the way they said i should yeah the way i played the nfl the
same way i played when
i was in high school it was the same way i played when i was in pop warner just
because you paid me
millions of dollars i'm not changing who i am just for that absolutely not did
you ever have teams
try to like tell you to pipe like no they loved it never they loved it the
referees loved it opposing
teams coaches loved it opposing teams players loved it everything everything i
did i could see that
because there's this kind of a thing like even if somebody's the enemy if they're
an enjoyable enemy
do you kind of just thankful to have somebody around that's going to keep you
entertained that's going to
keep things fun not on not only entertainment but what i brought to the game
and those i'm playing
against yeah it was nothing but a competitive nature nothing i did was
malicious yeah but you
knew one thing you'll be playing ocho or we playing the bangles in general i
got to come to play yeah
because i'm gonna challenge you during the week through the media yeah i sent i
sent gifts to the
defenses we were playing to the secondaries just to make it fun what kind of
stuff like high heels or
something no no like pepto bit i sent pepto bismol to the browns i sent um i
said oh because you about
to deal with this yeah i'm gonna make you sick to your stomach i sent gifts to
the falcons before
uh who else the steelers i sent i sent them some uh just just just fun man just
fun stuff and they
would they would always get the packages saturday morning look here they're
opening them packages
bro you're like a dangerous santa i just just have to say i was going to make
them sick or they were
going to get sick of covering me so here's some pep the way ahead of time all
fun oh that's hilarious
kind of stuff can really affect the defense you think just their mentality no
well yes it messes
them up because if you get if you go out there and you're trying to kill me
that lets me know you're
out of control oh you're out of control so i i do stuff like that if i can i
like to play mental
gymnastics yeah if i can get you out of your game if i can get you talking to
me in the middle of a
game i gotta i got a little edge on you a little edge on you just just i did
that that small you're
worried about me personally you're not worried about me as a player bingo and
you're not worried about
the game in general as a whole itself damn dude stuff like that is so true it's
like because you
because even when you say if you look back on a on a moment in your life and
you're like damn i could
have been a little bit more locked in or i'll let this get me a little and it
did affect me and
that happens yeah so then if you think that of ahead that way you think if i
can cause that to
them yeah that and i know that that outcome really occurs then that then that
me causing that is
worthwhile yeah absolutely that's so true the funny thing about it is is being
out of control and trying
to hurt the individual that you're playing against which is what happened to me
every game i had no
problem because i i enjoyed playing very calm under chaos so you're going to be
chaotic right somebody nice
and relaxed and calm and you being angry that split second of anger you're
gonna miss you're gonna
whiff you know is this is the game of football is a game of inches yeah and
once i know i'm in your
head i'm gonna always have that half inch over you every time who who hit you
the hardest when you were
playing do you feel like brian russell brian russell brian russell cleveland
browns garbage time
carson threw a slant over the middle and he got game is over there was no
reason i was supposed to
be in the game and i was i was knocked out there watch this up top all the way
up top
oh god and that is the one hit at the one hit i took and was concussed yeah and
did he even call
your email you no he did nothing it was good i enjoyed you see the score line
huh yeah 34 10 why
am i why am i even in the game and it's what a minute going o'clock but real
talk though if they
had taken you out of the game at this point would you have been upset do you
guys want to be in there
getting stats or what's it really like you know i don't know why we were in a
game at that point i'm
not sure that game was over obviously the battle of ohio one of the one of the
biggest games oh that's
a good point people came maybe they don't want to see the stars the whole time
yeah so when you uh was
there a quarterback that you do you feel like you get the best opportunity with
your quarterback yeah
hell yeah caution yeah absolutely i just don't know you don't know if people
are sitting there
thinking like whoever the quarterback is didn't matter you don't think so no
because i'm coming in
and my skill set was at a point and how i felt was i'm going to make your job
easy
barbarkowski was the call for the coordinator when we played i'm making your
job easy if you know
you need to play and you need a catch or you need a whatever it may be you know
who's number to call
oh yeah that's my mindset like i don't i don't need you to be great going the
ball just put it in the
area just anywhere in the area i'll take it i'll take it to rest was there do
you think players
sometimes like at the end of games they're like asking coaches hey give me
trade for me or something
like that people secretly yeah yeah that happens all the time yeah that now
that happens all the
time no so people say it quick in that quick little hook hey trade me hey trade
for me yeah absolutely
damn because you wanted them hugs are fast but sometimes you see their mouth
moving
yeah that's why you see players always cover their mouth but it's hard now
because everybody's mic'd up oh
yeah everybody's mic'd up so yeah that happened so that's a good one um do you
think you can still
play or no me yeah no come on bro you can't talk yourself up this whole time
you can't even get back
obviously i gotta be realistic as well the mind knows what to do the mind knows
what to do based
on years of playing in in iq on field iq but the body won't react the way i
want it to bro you could
play for the titans no no you got you guys have you guys got a good one in calvin
ridley oh no i know
we have i mean kevin really is one of the best right i don't think atlanta
should have let him go
but we could use you over there yeah even just for the where we would come to
watch you play though
yeah now what about that element of it has any team reached out to you late in
later years
absolutely not no to say we just to sell tickets absolutely i could i can do
that that's what i'm
saying i can fill a stadium up well that's what i'm talking about yeah but not
at this day and age no
but people would love to watch back then yes yes people would love to watch it
Thank you.
