Hour 2: Unc & Ocho react to TJ Watt contract dispute and Johnny Manziel gets brutally honest | Nightcap

24:09Shannon Sharpe:See, fireworks used to be illegal in Georgia, and so we had to go to the border of South Carolina. You had to go to the border of Florida in order to get them. Wait, in what city or state are fireworks illegal? I've never heard that. In Georgia, they were illegal. What part are you talking about in the country? Like, wait. The state of Georgia. we had to go we had to go to the cap we had to go to uh uh south carolina the border of south carolina or you had to go to florida to get fireworks well that's changed now though huh okay it's changed now yes absolutely there's somebody and it seemed like it was fun it was fun it was fun it was somebody we didn't supposed to have none somebody on twitter yeah i just thought about it just dawned on me two of you said illegal um said her and i go about go at it every year, every July 4th, sometimes July 3rd.

24:58She tweeted me this year. It's about Chad. This is Ms. Debra from Facebook. Are you going to light fireworks again this year and give our former members of the Army, Marines, or whatever it be, and give them PTSD? How you say it? Yeah. By lighting fireworks, are you going to do it again this She also, her name is Miss Debra. And just we jokingly just go at it every year about lighting fireworks. I'm like, no, ma 'am, I'm not going to do it this year. I'm not going to do it this year saying that it's bad for the veterans, for people to light fireworks. And I'm like, well, Miss Debra, well, hell, they have fireworks all over the world.

25:43I'm, I'm, I'm, what do we do?

25:46Shannon Sharpe:Yeah. Right. But it's funny. It's funny. Damn. Yeah, but hopefully everything works out for him. Like I said, man, I mean, it can't be good if you get treatment at Stanford and they say you're going to start on the non-football injury list. So hopefully everything works out for him. It's nothing serious. It's just, you know, man, but them eyes, they ain't nothing to play with. Chargers debuted their All-Navy Super Chargers uniform. I remember that. Can I tell you a fun fact about the All-Navy Blue? the Chargers last time wore that All-Navy Blue like that was with LaDainian Thomason in 2003. 2003.

26:28Fun fact.

26:29Shannon Sharpe:And we beat the brakes off him in them same uniforms.

26:35Shannon Sharpe:I'm CLT at the hall in a couple of weeks. But man, I like those but I like those powder blues. I like those powder blues. The powder blues, man. You know what? Some people might not like it. They might compare it to Big Bird, but that all yellow, I like the all yellow, too. It reminds me of the NFL Rush uniform, too. That all yellow, I like it. Man, the Chargers, when they were in San Diego, and, man, they would be firing that counter. They talking about the San Diego Super Bowl. Boom! I remember that. I remember that. I'm sorry. I'm sorry, Teddy Bear. Teddy Bear over here asleep. Teddy Bear like to jump off the counter.

27:20Shannon Sharpe:I'm sorry, Kenny, Greg. He's like, Daddy, don't do that no more. I'm sorry, buddy. I'm sorry. And not to be outdone, the Bucs are bringing out. It's the 50th anniversary of, you know, 1976, where the Bucs became a French organization. They're bringing back creamsicles. As a matter of fact, I got that helmet. I traded helmets one year at the Pro Bowl with Hardy Nicholson. and I got that helmet. I remember Hardy Niggas wore 56. He was good. Hardy was nice, man. Hardy was nice. Hey, I like the cream sigle. That uniform, real nice. The Bucs was good and terrible when they had the uniform back in the day.

28:01Ooh,

28:03Shannon Sharpe:they started, ooh. 0-14. But the uniform's sweet, though. It's real sweet. I wish more team did that. Went back to their throwbacks. Yeah, I wish more team did it. hey they're trying to sell some they're trying to sell some trying to sell some jerseys absolutely and I don't like the fact that sometimes when it comes to the throwbacks they get to wear them just one game out the season I don't like that yeah but you know Ocho what they was doing they didn't let you do it because they didn't want you changing helmets because but now they'll let you interchange helmets you had to like stick with that one helmet okay I see what you mean so they let them change what do you think is the best uniform of all time of all time oh yeah What's your favorite?

28:46Shannon Sharpe:You like the white? Did you like the orange? Did you like the black? What did you like? For us, for me, for the Bengals, when they wear that goddamn all-white, that all-white helmet, unbelievable, Unk. And then the whole stadium, all the fans come out in all-white, ain't nothing like that. Now, that's raw. Now, as far as other teams, especially when we talk about throwback, the best throwback uniform, to me, some people might not agree, the old Seahawks. when the Seahawks were that oh my goodness man that's so raw man that old throwback Seahawks so beautiful man yeah I like I mean a lot of people like the old mile high uniform with the horse on it yeah yeah

29:41oh yeah yeah yeah with the horse on it yeah yeah yeah Yeah, that's dope.

29:51I don't like that one. I like the... No, I like that. Yeah, that one. No, no, the other one. Yeah, I like that. Yeah, I like the uniform. Yeah, I will with them.

30:11Shannon Sharpe:In the Ravens, we had... We just had the black. All black? The Ravens got purple. They got all black. We just had the white. We had white. The jerseys, that was the only thing. They got purple pants now. They got black pants now. We just had white pants with the white for road and then the purple for home. When the Patriots wear the guy on the helmet snapping the ball and they wear the red jersey. Yeah, yeah, yeah. They wear the red jersey with the white pants. I got that. that's another nasty combo that's nice I don't think I'm trying to think because I traded with Ben Colts one year and I'm trying to I'm trying I don't think I got that one I don't think I don't think I don't think because that's that is a throw that's a throwback that's a throwback helmet they got some sharp ones too because they got the all white they got the white with the red they got the silver they got the blue Ocho, Shaquille O 'Neal, he's had it with RG3.

31:16Shannon Sharpe:RG3 decided to repost a racist edit of Angel Reese's NBA 2K26 cover, which drew backlash for amplifying the post, even as he insisted he was calling out racism. I believe you could have called it out without retweeting it. That's just me. We're going to discuss it in a minute. Shaq told RG3 to stop with his post about Reese. RG3 another another monkey post about my girl Angel Reese and I'm gonna punch you in your effing face okay it's enough like I don't usually do stuff like this but stop it bro you got your job you got your podcast leave my angel alone I'm I'm the one calling her telling her not to respond to effing stop it that's the last time okay thank you it's a shame all this stuff you did in your life you're going to be remembered for the pod you're going to be remembered for your podcast that should tell you you're not that effing great i don't want to be remember i don't want to be remembered for shag's big podcast i do not like leave those girls alone you already spoke about it let it go when you're moving like i do trips don't always come together weeks in advance sometimes production shoots interviews or something i've got to travel for on a short notice like the time when I had the last minute trip to Denver and everything came together fast.

You don't even have to bring attention to it. Just scroll by it. I saw it too.

35:30I scrolled right by it. There's no need to respond to it because when you respond to it, it brings to the light of day and it creates conversation all over again. There's no need. I'm speaking on me. You know my black ass. I love controversy, but not that type. There are three things I will never engage in. and rarely talk about race politics and religion religion those are two never ending never on we'll be here all day every day for 24 hours a day yes it's a never ending debate when it comes to those three things i'm not i'm not well there's no need you know there's no need for that i i i don't know I don't know.

36:16It's just, it's bad enough I don't really talk about nobody anyway unless they say something to me or say something about me. But I don't know what's wrong. I don't know what's wrong with Brother RG3.

36:28Shannon Sharpe:I mean, I think the thing is because RG3 has been so outspoken about Angel Reese, even in, he might have been trying to draw attention to it and nobody, everybody's done turned him off because you can't say a hundred negative things and then try to post something positive and think people are going to see the positive. It doesn't work like that. He probably been good, though, this time. I think he went about it the wrong way. He probably been good based on the backlash he received on his previous comments about someone hating someone, whatever it may have been, not too long. Correct. And he tried to spin it and say something nice this time.

37:02But you got to be able to read the room in certain situations and understand, you know what? Before I hit sin, is this the right thing to do? It just wasn't. And then the account that he retweeted, the account he retweeted from had less than 100 followers. Like, what do we want to read?

37:19Shannon Sharpe:Thank you. That's my point. Remember, I tell you all the time. I say, because the thing is, is that a lot of times when people take shots at, people want to punch up. Right. So if that's the case, they want you to lend them your audience's ear. Yeah. And then, you know, once you press in, it takes on the world of its own. It takes on the world of its own. So somebody says something, they got a podcast, then Ocho and I, man, let me see what Ocho, man, I know Ocho and I'm going to respond. Okay, we respond, then let me go see what he said. Now we've taken our listeners, our subscribers, our followers, and directed them to there.

38:08Yeah.

38:09Shannon Sharpe:Nah. Shaq don't punch the man in the face man look Shaq like who he likes and Shaq is a guy if Shaq for you you can't do any wrong you can't do no wrong that's how he is Shaq is a big fun loving guy great personality man he's a very loyal guy and when he likes somebody or he rock with you he rocked with you to the end. I got a funny story man about Shaq man I went to a Lego game you know me and Shaq we got into a fight we got into a fight by a Krispy Kreme Donuts we're off Crenshaw across the street from Louisiana Chicken yeah Shaq owns a couple of Krispy Kremes I know he was he did own that one I think it burned out I think they built it back up that was on Ponce.

39:04Shannon Sharpe:I mean I know Shaq probably gonna remember Shaq and I know you probably gonna see this we had that fight I forgot who y 'all played. I picked Shaq up. I slammed him and I hit him three times in the face. Bum, bum, bum, bum. And he tried to get up. He tried to grab me. But I went through his leg because he was so tall. So I went through his legs and came out on the... Yeah, I'm trying to figure out how you hit him in his face. I'm trying to figure out how you hit him in his face. He got in my face. Like he bent down. And he thought I wasn't going to hit him. So I quit with three quick ones. Pop, pop, pop.

39:31And then he went to grab me and I just ducked up under him like a little kid. You know how a little kid ducked up? And that's when you picked him up. No, I wasn't going to pick him up. I just went on the other side and I threw my set up. I threw my set up like, I mean, what you trying to do? And that's how it ended. The police came and it ended. So technically I beat Shaq ass.

39:52Shannon Sharpe:Do you want us to set that up? Me and Shaq? No, no, no. I'm saving everything for James Harrison. I'm saving everything for him. I just thought, you know, the world should know about that little fight me and Shaq had outside of Krispy Kreme and it was all behind some donuts. It was awesome. He took one of my one of my glazed donuts i'm like damn really and that's when he came down he looked down at my face and like i was nervous but my reaction it just because i was boxing back then because when we when he was with the leaguers i was like i was heavy in the boxing so i just hit him with a three-peat and he went to grab me and i went through his legs like a little kid and the police game yeah i don't i mean i think we've all been got sometimes fake accounts and we you know retweet stuff i just i i don't even you know if it ain't if it ain't our stuff club chase your uh nightcap now i tweet all positivity i tweet positivity but what i do love what i do do so i can keep a healthy balance on my timeline, I will engage in negativity.

40:57Because everything can't be positive. Everything can't be positive. You got to keep a healthy balance on your timeline. So if somebody talks shit, I'm firing right back. I need that. I need you to understand you ain't just going to say anything because I'm going to respond to you. And it's a good thing. I like it. I love it. And I do it with love. I do it with love. Oh, matter of fact, I forgot to tell you, too. I got a new job, too. Yeah. You do? In Pembroke Pines. For those that are watching, anybody that lives in Miami, I'm at a nail salon in Pembroke Pines called Lilic Nail Spa. So if you need manicure, pedicure, come by and see me.

41:43I'm there on Fridays. Fridays from 12 to 5.

41:49Shannon Sharpe:hopefully Shaq and RG3 had a conversation off the air you think he did yeah I'm sure I'm sure he did hey look at Teddy Bear hey what Thanos at he can hear you Shelly he's probably on the bed asleep with Shelly oh man hey Teddy Bear Teddy Bear if you ever want to get away come on down here to Miami I'm going to take you to the dog park in downtown right off Biscayne Boulevard they got him out there you hear me hey everything everything you can think of Pomeranians Chihuahuas Shih Tzus take your pick whatever flavor you want Golden Doodles Labadoodles He can say I got fixed I can't do nothing with that Oh you got him fixed Oh come on What you doing

43:00Damn

43:03Shannon Sharpe:The Mavs are the betting favorites To land LeBron The Mavericks are plus 125 The Heat are plus 500 The Cavaliers plus 550 Golden State plus 600 The Knicks plus 800. Ocho, do you think these rumors are true? Is Bron going to the Dallas Mavericks? Absolutely not. LeBron is not going anywhere. LeBron is not going anywhere. I just talked to LeBron two days ago. I didn't want to bring up the situation about the rumors that I'm hearing. You know, it's just honest conversation between two people, you know. And I think if he was going to Dallas, he would probably give me a heads up because he's someone that I'm someone that LeBron confides in, especially with information of this magnitude and this important.

43:46Outside of that, the rumors come from somewhere. They come from somewhere. Things like this stir up. You mean to tell me we didn't know Luka was leaving the goddamn Dallas Mavericks and nobody knew, but all of a sudden, rumors about LeBron are circulating about him leaving the Lakers and going to Dallas all of a sudden? Absolutely not. Somebody created this because something is going on and they're hiding something from the rest of the world, and this is a distraction.

44:11Shannon Sharpe:lebron is on the last year of his contract lebron is on what they call an expiring contract lebron is never ever when he's always had an option he signs an opt out of the contract signs another two-year deal one plus of the player option this was the time lebron opted in there's no more years on this contract are you are you saying that are you saying that to say is a possibility? It's being reported that LeBron wanted another year. They said, nope, the train's going to stop here. Now, you can catch another train, but the train's going to stop after this year in Los Angeles.

44:57Hey, y 'all. They got... Hey, listen, I don't see it happening. I'm just telling you, just based on the conversation I had with him. Most of the time when something of this magnitude is going to happen, a team not wanting your services after this year when you ask for another, then you wouldn't be in an upbeat spirit. You wouldn't be feeling good about yourself. You'd actually mention it in conversation.

45:25Shannon Sharpe:Well, he about to make$53 million, don't you? So there ain't nothing to be down about. But still, outside of the money. It ain't even about the money for LeBron anymore. He's already a billionaire. now so despite being able to make 53 million the fact that this team is telling me i finally come to a point in my life and career where they don't want me and that would that would be it's gonna happen to every you just you just told me an hour ago it's gonna happen to all i say everything has an expiration to how it does you right you're right okay you're right you're right you're right and LeBron is on an expiring contract yeah I that's a that's a I don't do we have an expiration date no okay I mean the thing is and the thing I I think he wanted to like this year and get one more year and then like next like next year would gonna be when he has this you know his okay I'm retiring he gets a rocking chair somebody buy him a motorcycle somebody buy him a cardigan that somebody's grandmother knitted and stuff like that or his you know you know something you know like right stuff like that but it's going to be very interesting uh it's going to be very and people like man i'm tired of talking about lebron what do you think we're going to talk about right until until the trade until he gets traded or the trade deadline passes and he's still on the laker is going to be talked about and then guess what ocho it's going to be talked about they make the playoffs going to be talking about where will lebron play next year is he going to be back for the lakers and i i just don't like the fact that they didn't give him another year i'm i'm not i'm not curious how that affects brawny um in in play but i think lebron is still trying to stretch his career long enough until his other son plays it i believe he's going to arizona if i'm not mistaken right until he gets his year in arizona and then gets the opportunity to play you know being able to say I played with both of my sons will be a tremendous accomplishment.

47:23A feat in general I think will never be done again as far as longevity is concerned for any of the athletes that play the game of basketball. But I think it's dope. And I think if LeBron hypothetically speaking just happens to go to the Dallas Mavericks, what are the chances they win and hoist that trophy next year?

47:50Shannon Sharpe:Well, I would like to give him a great chance if Kyrie was healthy, but I don't know if Kyrie's going to play. Kyrie might not play at all. Kyrie is a guy, he's going to make sure he's 100 % healthy because he don't want anything. Kyrie has dealt with knee problems. And he dealt with knee problems because he came back too soon. You know, even the first year when they went to the championship in Cleveland 2015, he played and then that knee went out on him. So Kyrie, would I be surprised if Kyrie missed the entire next year? The whole season? I would not be surprised at all. Because he's not going to be 100 % right.

48:32Yes.

48:34Shannon Sharpe:Three-time NBA All-Star Bradley Beal has agreed to a contract buyout with the Phoenix Suns and plans to join the Los Angeles Clippers on a two-year deal,$11 million, with a player option after clearing waivers. Ocho, does Bill tilt the needle with James Harden and Kawhi?

49:00Shannon Sharpe:Can't hear you.

49:10Shannon Sharpe:Your mic went out. Okay, here we go. We back? Yeah, okay. I said you would be better versed. Now, he's just coming from, obviously, over there in Phoenix, where we talked about a trio with Booker and Kevin Durant, and they didn't look like they should look as a unit together. So I'm curious. You wouldn't know better than I. Does that mean is he going to look better now or get the opportunities and be the scorer he once was when he was with the Wizards now that he's with Kawhi and Paul George? I mean he should have more space now he should have more space with KD I don't know if he moves the needle for me you don't think so I thought Norman Powell Norman Powell is a better fit because Norman Powell can play off the ball he doesn't need the ball Norman Powell is a better spot up Bradley Beal when he was going to the all-star games he was the main guy Kawhi and James Harden is going to have the ball how can you be a player of that magnitude and actually need the ball to be successful he can play off the ball i'm sure well he didn't in phoenix well you know what when he was when he was with washington he had the ball in his hands much more he was the guy it was him and john wall see he's never been he it's hard it look it's one thing to go okay be the guy and then go to number two Well, what about when you're the guy and you go all the way to number three?

50:42I mean, as good as he was in Washington, he shouldn't have to go to number three.

50:47Shannon Sharpe:So he going to be in front of who? KD Book or James Harden in Kawhi? I'm talking about who he's going to be in front of. Not be in front of him, just the fact that all of these players are good or elite scorers are just good in general at what they do. I just don't understand how the maturation and playing together as one, I don't understand how it never works. So it's just – I do. Let me ask you a question. How would it work if you put Jamar Chase, Justin Jefferson, Tyreek, and CeeDee Lamb on the same team? How would that work? Well, who the quarterback? It don't matter who the quarterback because everybody used to getting 160 targets.

51:25Shannon Sharpe:Well, if I give everybody 160 targets, that's 640 passes. That ain't happening. You know that, I know that. So now you know how that don't work? That's crazy when you think about it too. as I'm continuing. If I put Saquon, Josh Jacobs, and Derek Henry on the same team, how does it look? Somebody's going to be unhappy. Somebody. Guess what? You got one ball.

51:57Which big three was worse?

52:00Shannon Sharpe:Kevin Durant in Brooklyn? Kevin Durant in Phoenix? Phoenix? Hey, They missed the playoffs entirely. I don't think about it, though. Man, we talk about, man, Bradley Beal is a walking bucket, bro. We ain't talk about no just no regular. I mean, I don't know. Maybe some people might have forgot. I ain't forget, you know, even if it was a short time of watching the game of basketball, I done seen Buddy get buckets. So saying because he can't have the ball in his hands, it's affecting his play, I just ain't buying that. I'm not seeing him as a player that's one-dimensional, that can be effective just because he didn't have the goddamn ball in his hand.

52:40He's a scorer. A scorer should be able to play off the ball, coming off pick, coming off rolls, coming off screens, shit. Pop and shoot, it's basketball.

52:50Shannon Sharpe:That's Kevin Durant. He ain't Kevin Durant. Yeah, different style. Okay, you're right, you're right. That's, I mean, Steph was able to morph his game and play alongside KD. KD was able to morph his game. But I didn't think the Bradley Beal thing was going to work because basically he and Booker basically the same guys. Okay, okay. Now you're making more sense to me. I got you. I got you. I got you. I got two of the same things. I didn't need you. But also, also, in Bradley Beal's case, we have to understand that also injuries have hampered him looking and being effective as well. So not even being able to get on the court, to be efficient with those other two also helped.

53:35Shannon Sharpe:Think about it, Ocho. You got to sacrifice. If D-Wade, Chris Bosh doesn't sacrifice in Miami, they ain't winning nothing. You see the sacrifice? D-Wade said, you know what? I'm going to take a back seat. Chris Bosh was a 20 and 10 guy. I said, you know what, guys? I'll take a back seat. LeBron, continue to do what you do. All right. About sacrifice? Because I took... Hold on. I know about Sacramento when I ask and beg management and Marvin Lewis and Mike Brown and Katie and Troy, please let's go get T.O. and both of this offense even more

54:16Hey, if this light go off one more time I know something

54:23Shannon Sharpe:But I hope, look But the thing is that Beal just needs to understand they don't need him to be that Bradley Beal that was in Washington. They don't need that. He might want to be that, but that's not what they need.

54:43Wait, when you say that's not what they need, what do you think they need then? If Bradley Beal isn't the answer to help bolster that offense.

54:49Shannon Sharpe:They don't need him to score 25-30. That's what I'm saying. Okay. okay that's why for me Norman Powell is a better fit with Kawhi and James Harden than Bradley Beal

55:08Shannon Sharpe:okay I like it but we're going to find out Klay Thompson and Meg DeStuyle have launched they go together hold on Hey, boy, Clay hitting threes on and off the court, huh? Okay, okay. He a great catch. Catch and shoot? Catch and shoot, shoot him. Yeah. I'm happy for my sister Meg, too, boy. Go ahead, go ahead, Meg. He don't miss. You know what's funny, too, right? Remember, I ain't tell you. I tried my hand at music, and me and Meg, we had a little song together. But I think it got scrapped. Yeah, that's my dog, man. dog goddamn me goddamn megan clay boy okay okay goddamn play whatever boy hey long range we expect a big year from clay you know normally a happiness

56:06Shannon Sharpe:come on take take take take your time take your time go ahead no no i'm just saying i mean look all right he he he's normally been very private when he tries he tries he's too big of a figure to be private though. Right. And, you know, they young. Absolutely. That's what it's about. That's what it's about. You know, no matter what people say, you know, with Clay, with Meg, your life is short. Life is short. Get out there. Whoever wants you, that's what you do. And I see a lot of people, I know a lot of fellas probably upset, you know, at Meg and a lot of women probably upset at clay but the people upset never even had an opportunity because they never had they probably never have a chance anyway yeah the people that's mad well y 'all ain't gonna have no chance that that's the thing people be like oh he he can do better he so what he should have told you she should have picked you hey well people people funny boy i'm happy i'm happy for megan clay but hell wait a minute i'm thinking about it how tall meg is probably with heels i mean she tall she probably naturally five nine okay okay and clay how tall clay probably six four five nine that gets you uh okay you i mean she in heels all the time so wow i'm i'm thinking i'm thinking long term now i'm not sure how clay thing you know i think long term you know i'm thinking about procreating now i'm thinking about athletes i'm that's where i'm going with it so i'm not sure where clay's head is at but i'm telling you where where my head is you know 6 '6 and you look at some of the other nba players and and and their kids and and and how successful they've been i don't i don't know if clay is thinking what i'm thinking but i'm telling you what i'm thinking no okay yeah yeah i want to make sure we're on the same page kendra lamar super bowl now i'm gonna say listen if she 5 '9 and he's he's 6 '4 we definitely getting something 6 '6 or 6 '7, whether it's a girl or a boy.

1:02:05Shannon Sharpe:Kevin Dolewood Jr. said, my question is, where do you rank Von Mill among all-time edge rushers? And he up there. I mean, you consider that, you know, he was defensive rookie of the year. He's a Super Bowl MVP. I mean, he took the game Super Bowl 50 against the Carolina Panthers. you know obviously it starts to start with LT but you have to put him up there see edge rushers now you're talking about ends I look at edge rushers like linebackers but now edges is also defensive ends it used to be outside linebackers LT, the Derrick Thomas, the Cornelius Benning, Kevin Greens, Pat Swillings guys like that I think when it's all said and done I think he's going to find himself in Canton absolutely

1:05:05Shannon Sharpe:Brown's closest comparison from the past best reception rate Gorilla Glue hands motor out of this world. Who would you compare him to, Ocho?

1:05:16Shannon Sharpe:Almond Ross St. Brown. Forget everything he just said. Let's talk about the route running because that's his specialty. Almond Ross St. Brown, his specialty is his route running no matter where you put him. You talk about giving the illusion that I'm going to do something that I'm actually not? Well, he's one of the best at it. A comparison for Almond Ross? oh man it's been it's been so many great ones it's almost like oh man that's that's not fair and that's that's not fair because he doesn't he doesn't he doesn't have to do all them all of all them tricks and all that stuff you know ben johnson tell armin rossane brown to line up outside, line up in a slot, and I need you to get open on whoever the nickel is.

1:06:08And he can just get open. No tricks, no gimmicks. Even though they have tricks and gimmicks that they can do, he can get open on the muscle out the slot. Not that many slot receivers that can do that.

1:06:21Shannon Sharpe:Yeah, I can't thank anybody off the top of my head, Ocho. And it's been some good ones too, man. It's been some really, really good slot receivers that are really just shifty being being able to transition and manipulate linebackers, you know, and getting open. It's just too many.

PrEP stands for pre-exposure prophylaxis, and it means routinely taking prescription medicine before you're exposed to HIV to help reduce your chances of getting it. PrEP can be about 99 % effective when taken as prescribed. It doesn't protect against other STIs, though, so be sure to use condoms and other healthy sex practices.
