00:00Maybe someone who needs some counsel and advice, maybe not legal counsel and advice, but just advice in life in
00:05general, is Deshaun Watson.
00:07He spoke to the media about getting booed during the Cleveland Browns preseason game, and we can hear from Deshaun
00:16Watson.
00:17Man, I didn't have no reaction.
00:18I think the biggest thing is, I think you guys know too, and I think the whole world knows, it
00:25has nothing to do about the performance.
00:27It's a little bit personal than that.
00:29So I think that's a disrespectful thing.
00:32So, yeah, I mean, I'm going to keep whatever I feel with me and my family internally on how I
00:38feel about that, and yeah, just move on.
00:40But don't you think, Deshaun, that winning and playing better would eliminate some of that booing?
00:48Last time I played on this field, I tore my Achilles, and that same fan base, they cheered when I
00:53got hurt.
00:54So does that have to do with, what does that have to do with anything about performance?
01:00When a person gets hurt, especially for your own city, and they cheer.
01:04Does any of that make you regret coming here?
01:06No, I don't regret anything in my life.
01:09You know, I think the Lord put me through situations for a reason.
01:11So I don't regret anything at all.
01:15But, you know, I had different thoughts on how it was going to be, but, you know, it is what
01:20it is.
01:22You know, sometimes, you know, the tables turn, and I'm patient enough because I'm a child of God to, you
01:28know, wait for that time to change.
01:29So I'm not tripping on it.
01:31Not a very likable guy, Deshaun Watson, and also not very self-aware.
01:38Like, you know, you're being paid $230 million, whatever the number was, and you're just not that good.
01:48I, you know, it's obviously they're going to boo you.
01:53They're not, they, they, they're, they're not a, they're not, they don't like you.
01:58So I don't know what, I don't know what to tell you.
02:00And he used to be so likable.
02:02I was a Deshaun Watson fan when I started on this show.
02:05The fact that he got up in front of a microphone and said that the reason that he's getting booed
02:10by sports fans is because of what's gone on off the field.
02:15Please take a look around the league.
02:17Like, take a look at history when it comes to sports and in issues that players have faced that are
02:23on the same level as yours.
02:25If you were playing well, you would not be getting booed.
02:29Cleveland Browns fans would be praising you.
02:31They would all become very skilled in the way in which they can say, well, he was never convicted.
02:37Well, he, he didn't really, you know, it was an interesting timing for all these women to come forward.
02:42Like you are so, it has to be an, you have to be a narcissist to have that take, to
02:48think that it has nothing to do that, then you're more play on the field.
02:52That it's not performative.
02:54But he's also the one taking it personally.
02:57Like if you don't want people to be personal, then don't be personal in return.
03:00Also, I would say the, uh, the notion that a person, any person, myself, anybody would say, I have no
03:08regrets in my life, especially considering what he's been accused of doing.
03:14Like, of course we all have regrets.
03:16We would do things differently.
03:17Like if you had a chance to, I find that I also thought on the other end, though, Shadur Sanders
03:22was phenomenal in reaction to that.
03:24Did you see his sideline interview?
03:26Like he, I thought he handled it with such grace that he was like, you know, defending the teammate, even
03:32though it made him, you know, he's in a competition with them.
03:34I thought he handled it really well.
03:35For a guy who struggled last year on the football field a little bit, like this is the perfect opportunity
03:39for Shadur to endear himself to people and like give himself a legit opportunity to be the quarterback.
03:45Listen, I may have been on an Island when it comes to Shadur, uh, I was not a fan of
03:51the process that got him to the, to the NFL.
03:55I was not a fan of the way he conducted himself on, on draft night, but who knows?
04:00Like he may end up being the guy out there.
04:02Well, it's always about who you're next to, not about who you are.
04:05So life's about context and being next to Deshaun Watson is a great thing for Shadur.
04:09Cause God, does he look good?
04:12What a disaster Cleveland is forever.
04:15That franchise just a dumpster fire.
04:18Oh my God.
04:19I couldn't imagine like what Deshaun Watson's contract.
04:23Is that the worst deal in all of sports?
04:25Yes.
04:25And it's not even close.
04:26It's it really, I, it's, it was an odd time to do it.
04:31If you remember.
04:31Totally.
04:32And it's not only the deal.
04:34They traded first round picks like six of them.
04:36Like unbelievable.
04:38Didn't they, didn't they like one of the six picks to get them?
04:42I don't think it was, I think it was only four first round picks, but they had to give
04:45him a fully guaranteed contract.
04:48No, it was a pick six is what he threw when he was signed.
04:51Uh, Trey, let me get this right now.
04:53Internet.
04:54Uh, in exchange for, uh, a first round to the Texans got a 2022nd first round pick, a
05:02fourth round pick, a 2023rd first round pick, a 2023rd third round pick.
05:06Like, geez, three first round picks.
05:09And what else?
05:10Like it's a total of six.
05:11I think it was six.
05:12Yeah.
05:13Yeah.
05:13But a three first rounders.
05:15Unbelievable.
05:17That's nuts.
05:18And I mean, what are his stats?
05:19Well, to be fair, like at the time, like outside of the controversy on the football field,
05:24when they traded for him, he was like the next big thing.
05:26He had like a 70% completion percentage through 4,800 yards was awesome for the Texans.
05:31I just say outside of the controversy, I'm just trying to, there were 30 masseuses who
05:37were claiming that he was touching them.
05:39I totally agree.
05:41I'm not mistaken.
05:42I believe Wiggy was mad that the Patriots didn't do that.
05:45Hand to God.
05:46I really do think Wiggy was like, why aren't they in on him?
05:49Like 2020.
05:492020, he had a ridiculously good football season.
05:52Ridiculously good.
05:54All right.
05:55Well, now he's just bad.
05:57Well, yeah.
05:58They take bad.
05:59I mean, this is.
06:00But the booing was not performative.
06:02No.
06:02It's a grudge.
06:04All right.
