Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, we doing our thing for not, you know, not where we really want to be and all the stuff that we talk about doing for, but just where we had now just shooting and just getting our episodes. For sure, I think we on the right path.
Speaker 1:Right, because right now we're at what?
Speaker 2:A hundred listeners right now.

Speaker 1:We going to be on.
Speaker 2:TikTok. We going to be on all the outlets, so just sit back and let the step of step. Yeah, sit back, for sure For sure. What's wrong with what I said? Why are you looking at me like that?
Speaker 1:What.
Speaker 2:When I said stand back and stand by, look, look here.
Speaker 1:They going to think you got that whole hat on right now. Oh hell, no, hell, no. I don't want to write on them like that.
Speaker 2:That was just funny stuff, that he said, though for sure, but no.
Speaker 1:But Chance. You know what I've learned about having emotion. Though A lot of people think having emotion is how much weight you're moving, how much popularity you have, I think with me, having motion just means I'm moving in a positive light. I'm not where I was at yesterday. And that's my biggest thing. Like I tell my kids, they're my biggest influence Because as long as I'm moving in a positive direction, to where they can look up me and salute me and say Dad, you did a good job For sure they ain't even got to say that though, because, like I mean, we talk all the time.
Speaker 1:If y'all don't know me and Chance work together. Hey, if you can understand what y'all hear right here, this is a little bit more controlled.
Speaker 2:But it's going to get worse. This is a little cleaned up and sanitized. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1:Hey, I don't want to be on punishment, no more. My mom was the one I built last time for me. But I got calls from DC, from my uncle telling my son hey, nephew, I heard you got a podcast Kind of listen to old moves, not yet, not yet. Let me clean up a little bit. But it happened in motion Because I feel like Chance. When we first met each other we were still in a rough patch.
Speaker 2:What you mean.
Speaker 1:Man, you were still in a rough patch, man Shoot. I was just gaining traction with certain things and moving and cleaning up my act a little bit.
Speaker 2:Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I see what you mean, yeah.
Speaker 1:Do you feel like you were the same person that you were when you started?
Speaker 2:Oh, no, no, completely different, completely different, completely different space, completely different mindset. Yeah, yeah, I feel like I moved in a positive way to where I could see I am having motion, because I'm be honest with you, when people first are saying that I had no idea what you're talking about for real? No, like you said, but I thought I was moving way to doing something illegally, like I was, like I don't have no motion at all. I got a W2. I can't have motion.
Speaker 1:You know, hey, hey, hey them dope boys get my, get W2's. Now what you talking about. They can find a taxes. Now Listen, it's a cover up man. Hey, the government just trying to get somebody free cheese.
Speaker 2:Hey, I'm gonna say I need his bread. Man I'm gonna say I need his cut. He got to get here. Hey 1099 dope boys. 1099 dope boys is crazy. That sound like a new group. That's for the drop.
Speaker 1:Hey, bro, I'm on the fam, I'm on the fam models getting a W2's too. Hey, y'all think y'all making all that money, shoot y'all better fire them taxes.
Speaker 2:You gotta find taxes with only fan.
Speaker 1:Yeah, why not? I'm not sure what I'm saying. They check boy. He need that cut, but shoot, he is a, he is the house mom.
Speaker 2:Hey, you think you are here working with me. Still, you still gotta file your taxes with a, with a only fan.
Speaker 1:Yes, that's crazy.
Speaker 2:Well, you think you can get all this free, bro.
Speaker 1:You got to understand. We live in an American economy, bro. We pay taxes on groceries after we get paid and they take taxes. You think you ain't gonna get taxed at the dude. Throw you a hot 20 on the way. A on the way. I see you not being taxed is if you stand on that corner. 20 dollars is 20 dollars. Hj's, bj, Zj's if you got to ask for the Zj is you can't afford it.
Speaker 2:Just remember that. But like I was saying, man, I didn't know what have emotion was like. I heard a few females say it so you know I was like, is that like a new thing that's come up? And then, like you know, atlanta got its own slain.
Speaker 1:So I thought that was just a new Atlanta thing, but I Don't know the, you know, solid definition of nobody knows a solid definition, because I mean you use certain terms and terminology To fit benefits you and your situation.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:That's like. That's like when you sit, when he, when he's females, be some of some bit. We outside I'm in no streets, bro my head to me, you telling me you back in the streets. Oh, you got five for the fire.
Speaker 2:I like you, like to say that fire you in your thought bag.
Speaker 1:But, but that's like you saying, like we say oh bro, shit, I don't know the porch early. Yeah Ain't no, a no green bean over here.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, like some stuff you could, you could figure out. But I'm telling, when I first heard that I know what it meant. I know now that if you don't have motion or somebody say you Don't have motion, it's a negative thing. That's all I know. So y'all let me know what have emotion is. Y'all see me in person at the. All this to the part, let me know, give me, give me a logical definition of what have emotion is. But I think you know, do I have it now for show you know, doing this, doing other things, I, I can see you that I motion.
Speaker 1:Oh, my bad to cut you all, big dog, but question question for you personally do you feel as being around a super a group of individuals Pushes you to have motion?
Speaker 2:for sure you don't want to be left behind it in. It depends what they doing, especially if they going down a road that you Are that you want to head down yourself, for sure you gonna tag along or you might lead the way, so and then you want to kind of be around people. That's that's doing something. You know what I mean. So of course I feel like, yeah, you know, depends on your group, but some people they do it on their own, but for the most part if you got a, if you got a group of people, that's solid. That's gonna, you know, handle business and you know, make things happen. For show you gonna follow. It's easier, it's easier to do stuff in a group than to do it by yourself.
Speaker 1:Hey, like we say all the time, it's it's the pass of least resistance, because if I see my partner, he's great, gaining motion or he's moving in a positive light, I will only feel subject to like doing. I need to be doing something or I'm not doing enough.
Speaker 2:Yeah, make you think what I'm doing. I ain't doing nothing. And then and then you know, you don't. You don't want them to get to a certain point. They be like man. You was doing that the whole time. You know what I'm saying. Like man, I could have did that with you, but I want to do a nothing, you know.
Speaker 1:I'm just, I'm just sitting here being stagnant, yeah, but I just feel like Having positive individuals around you, because everybody ain't gonna get you know straight.
Speaker 2:Because if I'm.
Speaker 1:If I'm messing up, tell me I'm messing up. Don't be no, yes, man, don't let me fall on my face. If you really, if you really care about me and fool with me, yeah, you will actually give me some straightening or give me encouragement that I'm doing good, then I'm that. I'm that, I'm doing what I need to be doing, and it's not just I don't want to hear Pats on the back man. Hey, tell me what I can improve. Yeah, because from my first episode to now, bro, we just meant like we were taking the criticism in and Building upon it. Yeah, because it's completely is Telling us how we can correct ourselves. Because that tells us that the actual individuals that it's coming from Support us for sure, because they want to see us grow.
Speaker 2:They want to see us, whatever they saying it means, Well, so right, of course you're gonna listen to it, but, um, it's like I was saying, it's easier to move when you got a group of people behind you. You know, like what we doing right now? We just starting this. We got a group of people behind us. You know what I'm saying. So so yeah, but have emotion.
Speaker 1:Hey, can you have false motion?
Speaker 2:False motion.
Speaker 1:Can people? The reason why I say false motion is people say they fool with you.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:But don't really fool with you or they just want to be leeches yeah.
Speaker 2:Oh, they pushing you, they pushing you to get to that point. So they like okay, if he get there. I know I'm a skim off the top of that too, for show you know, you definitely gonna have some people that's because it's a heard the other day.
Speaker 1:Y'all had a little incident like that the other day with a rando, what you mean? Oh, we ain't gonna call no names, but they know who they are.
Speaker 2:Who's on my?
Speaker 1:Oh, we just gonna say a certain individual that we see on a regular basis.
Speaker 2:Yeah, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Because I mean it's a yeah yeah, we see the whole thing about that.
Speaker 1:I think that's called smoking mirrors, though dog.
Speaker 2:For sure. Okay, I can just say how I move. If, when I first meet you we cool, you know what I'm saying we, we, we, an associate and you start to act different, I'm not going to go up to you and be like, hey, what's up with you, you know what I'm saying. Because, first off, I ain't doing that wrong, right?
Speaker 1:I understand you just acting weird, why?
Speaker 2:are you? Why are you being weird to me?
Speaker 1:I'm just gonna reassess.
Speaker 2:Yeah, you acting real sus. But with those type of people you just got to. You know what I mean. Rock with them. Rock with them from a distance, especially if it's in a professional, professional manner. You know what I mean. Like I ain't really. I really got to see you all the time. You feel me Right. Like you know you're not in my main circle.
Speaker 1:Hey, let me tell you something. It ain't like like we say, but I'm gonna. I'm gonna hunt the horn twice and throw up the deuces and keep pushing, I'm gonna slide.
Speaker 2:You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1:But I it ain't one of those situations where I'm gonna sit down hey, what's going on? How you doing, I don't know. No, we're not doing that. No, I feel like. I feel like that's been fake, kicking it.
Speaker 2:For sure, yeah, no, if you're doing that, yeah, that, that, that, that that shows all man. So I'm gonna, just, you know, move different to, but in a silent way. You know what I mean. I ain't gonna be disrespectful to them, but, like I said, I'm gonna, just I'll be you think I can do that what. Move different.
Speaker 1:Like talk to him. Still kick the bobo.
Speaker 2:I don't know Jack, because you, you, you, on filtered man, if, if, y'all, if y'all knew Jack Personally, you know that this man is off the dome with anything. So I don't think so, especially if, if, but they on some weird stuff too, and then you, you, the type of person is going to show your face. So so now I don't think, I don't think you do it.
Speaker 2:I'm not, I'm not that type person. My emotions show on my face but, like I said, if we in a professional setting I could really be like you know, I could get in and in and in what we do to, I ain't got to be around you for real.
Speaker 1:So right, absolutely, yeah, yeah, yeah, I can treat you like you got that, like I tell people all the time I treat you like you got STD.
Speaker 2:That's great.
Speaker 1:Avoid still phone yeah.
Speaker 2:Go the other way? Yeah, but.
Speaker 1:I just feel like, because I think, I think the my only problem is because if I fool with you, I fool with you. I'm genuine because, on the flip side, because I want you to give me the same treatment.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:If I don't fool with you, I ain't finna even waste my breath with you. Yeah, Because I feel like this, bro, I choose you like my. Do so. I cut your head off straight up Because I mean I mean what? Why do I have to fake kick it with you? Yeah, Because I mean shoot, bro, I will drop, kick you off the top rope and and and and ping you one, two, three and a kick dirt up on you and God don't have. Have a good day, bro.
Speaker 2:Yeah, here's a coke on the side. We just, we just not built like that. Some people built like that. Where they could you know?
Speaker 1:bro, they don't think you can.
Speaker 2:Yeah, you can fake it.
Speaker 1:I can't do it. You know, like I tell you all the time at eight, don't, don't, hey, don't act like you got no silicone titties with me. See, see, I didn't cuss, hey, I said in cuss, hey, I'm just telling you, man, you cannot act like that man, you cannot act like you got a BBL with me because you don't fake, kick it with me, yeah, because I will call you out on it for sure, because I didn't see it.
Speaker 1:I didn't see it plenty of time. Why? Let me tell you hey, christmas, yeah, that's what I'm about.
Speaker 2:That's what I was just about to say. Listen, let me tell you this little story about Jackson.
Speaker 1:So, man, we don't be disrespectful.
Speaker 2:No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. I'm going to just give you a bystander's point of view of what was going on. We had work. I'm walking into our area and I just got done doing something. I'm dropping off some paperwork and I see.
Speaker 2:Jack in the middle of where we at. I'm trying to be incognito with the job, so y'all bear with me, but Jackson is standing in the center of this room. It's a older gentleman that he talking to. But you know how, you just know something off, but you really can't read it. You know what I mean? I peep and I'm like, okay, jack upset about something, but I'm doing what I'm doing. He gonna tell me later. But by the time I hit the door to leave, the volume and the tone of his voice was in a different way where I had to turn around and be like, oh he snapping on somebody, let me see what he snappin'. You know what he snappin' for man? Somebody did the unthinkable, the just. You just don't do it. It's like saying Voldemort in Harry Potter they threw that man food away.
Speaker 2:Oh shit, they threw that man food away after the job catered for. So you know how you get down at work. When the people bring some food you load up. Man he had, that was a Thanksgiving plate, basically that he wrapped up and had ready to go for the next week, if y'all don't have trash, if y'all ain't never had leftover Thanksgiving plate that bad boy had.
Speaker 1:what was it? It had ham it had, bro. I went in other places and got some food, man, man. Hey, that's a pleasure.
Speaker 2:The plate was so good that I even were plottin' on it like hey man, jack got 48 hours for that one If that bit ain't eating 48 hours, I'ma go ahead and have to jug it from him. But, man, he goin' off on an old man.
Speaker 1:Hey, remind you this old man like what about?
Speaker 2:60?. Yo, this dude. I have never seen somebody with genuine fright in, just not knowin' what to do and what was gonna happen next, just the volume of what Jack was sayin'. And what's crazy is someone had the nerve to come back up, the older dude on what had happened and let me just tell you. All right, let me get back to it. So, jack snappin' on buddy, someone comes out and says this statement with I don't know who sanctioned you to say that. I don't know what you thought in your mind. You know to go say that if that was gonna cease, all heat that was comin' from Jack, that did nothin'. But now you got the heat on you cause this individual comes out and says why are you mad? We havin' food. Later I walked out cause I'm not finna be a witness to a murder. All I know is it didn't go well for that person because, it's not about food later, it's the principle.
Speaker 2:you know what?
Speaker 1:I'm sayin' Don't touch my food if it ain't yours.
Speaker 2:Yeah, in fact it's the principle, so Well, let me tell you something.
Speaker 1:It was eight o'clock in the morning. I ain't even thinkin' about breakfast. I ain't even want no hot food bro, I just wanna bro? I wanted to eat that food. I came back up to my mouth waterin'. Yeah, I was like I'm ready.
Speaker 2:Man, I'm telling you, that was, that was that play was heavy, man I laugh so hard in the hallway. You know one of them things that happen where you just think about it and you just start laughing. I think that might a good pay period.
Speaker 1:Chance, did I tell you? They had a nerd that text me and ask me. Ask me, do I need to buy you some food, bro? I couldn't even respond. It's not about that. I couldn't even respond, man.
Speaker 2:It's just the principle, it's just the principle, it's just the principle.
Speaker 1:but like we were saying, I'm a jack-o'-m-filter, so he can't. He can't have no stuff like that. Which one do you think was worse, that one or the other one? When I had the text of boss talking about something, yeah, I messed up.
Speaker 2:You text the boss and you messed up.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I already knew I was gonna be on paper for that one.
Speaker 2:Oh, oh, oh yeah, hey hey shit, they didn't even start it. This is an instance to where Jack got into it with someone who wasn't having no emotion in their life at all and they were projecting it on other people. Let me tell you right now if you have no emotion, do not try to put that on other folks.
Speaker 2:Don't come with the negative energy. Don't do that because it's gonna blow back on you. Sit down, reflect on yourself and try to better yourself, because you might step to the wrong person, like this person, like this individual did with Jack and you might. They definitely lost you. It's not a might. You definitely gonna lose for sure, because, man, it was God's will that I wasn't there, because I'm an instigator, y'all. I'm sorry. I'm an instigator, especially if it's somebody that I don't like. Oh, I'm definitely for the instigator, definitely for the instigator Chance.
Speaker 1:they saved that boy.
Speaker 2:Yeah, they saved him and they put my boy on paper. Man, my boy was on probation, basically.
Speaker 1:We put it like that hey look, he ain't never come back to our shift, though.
Speaker 2:No, I don't think that would have been a good move. That wasn't a smart move. He had emotion on that thought, though not to come back For sure. For sure. Anything else, though he had no emotion.
Speaker 1:They telling me yeah, y'all gonna have to sit down and talk about this.
Speaker 2:I said, oh, it won't be in this room. We didn't talk about it in this room, I think someone said why not?
Speaker 1:I said because I might. Hey, this might be a phone conversation, but hey might be have to reach out and touch somebody.
Speaker 2:For sure he needed to get touched to just get his mind right. But yeah, that was a prime example of not having emotion. And what's crazy is man I laugh because we talking about it now but I heard a lot of females saying that at first man, oh, he don't got emotion, he lame. And I was just like you know what? What does that mean? You know what I'm saying? What is that? Where you got that from?
Speaker 1:We see that all the time, though, now, because we see those try hards like Soda man.
Speaker 2:Soda man.
Speaker 1:Soda man Kylie why?
Speaker 2:Hey, listen man, i'ma tell you right now, for the listeners that don't know who the Soda man is because we got some listeners who do, but for y'all don't know who the Soda man is that boy will snipe you.
Speaker 1:Hey what you talking about, If you hunting down something that boy will snipe you. Hey, I think every job has a Soda man For sure. Had that hook bitch will got no one in the cut creeper that just sit back and watch.
Speaker 2:I call it dirty macking, bro.
Speaker 1:You remember he got no one found out. Somebody was talking and went and told management.
Speaker 2:Yep. I was like this is a dirty macker. I'm telling you, this is the bottom of the barrel, the black stuff at the bottom of the barrel. If y'all have a Soda man at your job, you know, leave a review so we can read the comments of what y'all going through. But that's the term we gonna use for an individual that's dirty macking. We gonna call him Soda man cause.
Speaker 1:Soda man, hey man the Soda man.
Speaker 2:He'll snipe you boy. He'll ruin everything you got going on.
Speaker 1:But hey, that Soda man is like stepping in some dog poop early in the morning and you say ooh, yeah man.
Speaker 2:I'm telling you he think he got it, but he don't have it.
Speaker 1:But hey, he's one of them fake motion having.
Speaker 2:Fake motion. He gotta pay for his motion.
Speaker 1:That's all I'm gonna say. Two fifths yeah, he gotta pay for his motion.
Speaker 2:But hey, man, that was my first time seeing Lames get it too, yeah.
Speaker 1:Lames pay for it too. Hey, but they, but you know what. You know what I've realized a lot of times some of the lamest dudes in the room, these females, will act like they have motion. They were all false pretenses, yeah. And the dudes that really have motion just ain't gotta speak on it. What ain't gotta be explained? What's a full show? What ain't gotta be? What is it? What doesn't have to be said, doesn't have to be explained?
Speaker 2:For sure it's like having a gun on you. The quietest fool in the club, who just chilling, sipping on his drink, not bothering nobody, might do a little two-step. He got a gun.
Speaker 1:Hey, you know what I say all the time. You believe in air, don't you? Yeah, you don't see it right. Fact hey, that's how you treat my gun. Fact hey, just know it's there.
Speaker 2:Yeah, speaking of that. Yeah, what's up? You know I'm out here naked man. I'm about to cop my first one.
Speaker 1:But why you telling on yourself right now what you mean? You can't get caught slipping.
Speaker 2:I live a life within the laws and regulations of the United States.
Speaker 1:Who I do too.
Speaker 2:I don't have to worry about nobody coming up to me who I don't Catching me slipping. Who Stay ready. Ain't gotta get ready, listen. But see, the thing about you is Jack. He was GZ the Snowman at one point. Let's just say that.
Speaker 1:No, no, no, no, no, no. Hey why you got to do me like that man. Look here, look here.
Speaker 2:Man, stop lying, man, you GZ the Snowman no.

I'm not good at math, that's why I could never. I never was into the selling drugs and I ain't want nobody to kill me cuz I done, I done gave to the low for the low low.
Speaker 1:Jack good at math.
Speaker 2:That's all. I'm gonna say that if you got something Okay, the late 90s, early 2000s, let's say before the swag air in Atlanta. Okay whenever that began. If you had something that you couldn't move, jatica, move it.
Speaker 1:Just cuz I was a water boy before the water boys.
Speaker 1:Yeah, cuz I remember got the one down on the curb I was, broke his owner what I had $20 to my name. When I bought a case of the water at the UGA football game. Right I, but like two cases of water, went out there. I was selling three dollars a pop, went back and bought two more. I was out there for three hours. I Ended up buying a total of. At the end of the day, I went through nine cases of 24 Cases of war and three dollars a pop.
Speaker 2:You do the maths, that's.
Speaker 1:What I'm saying y'all so yeah man, like you think, hustles are born, the hustles created, or do you have it?
Speaker 2:You just got to have it in you now you got to have it in you for sure, cuz I didn't see some cats dash, dash, older and they it's not clicking for them that they got a hustle. You know, you know, even if you are at that age where you, you know, I mean I'm too old for this, I'm too old for that you still got a hustle. Man, you can't just Unless you unless you hit a real good lick early on where you could just Chill and everything taking care of you. Know, you got a good business. He was an athlete, you know what I mean. You were a doctor, a lawyer.
Speaker 1:Speaking of that, do you feel like these kids should get in our LDS? I Ain't talking about the college kids, because they deserve it. I'm talking about high school kids. I.
Speaker 2:High school. I'm not going. Okay, you got to think about these, these kids situations too. Man, you know that money could help them. You know you did before. They had to get it from the boosters. Let's just say that. Let me how they had to get in the Boosters. You had to commit to this school. You had to do that. Now you can't do that because these top athletes getting in our Adils, that right there. I Don't think that's a problem in high school. I just think that's gonna be a problem of Creating like future issues. You had in an 18 year old a bag. I Could just speak on myself at 18 shoot. Let's say them in our Adils. Let's let's do a realistic number.
Speaker 1:You give me. Okay, we got, we got. What's his name from down here? Um that, that one of you going to Clemson? Um, he just got a $400,000 NIL deal in 11th grade.
Speaker 2:Yeah, see, and he touched it. He touched the field at come to me 400k and when I was in 11th grade. No, he can't touch it. He can't touch it till he go to no, he graduates from high school. So, so yeah, 18 year old with 400k man, I'm not, I'm not thinking about 18 year old me, was not thinking about how could I flip this into more money. I, I would definitely take care of moms, yeah, take care of the family, but after that, all that money getting blowed, man, I'm that money getting blowed.
Speaker 2:So I just hope that they, they, you know they got people around them advising them. You know, put the money to the side because, let's be honest, when you come up on some cash like that, you going, you gonna do some bull with it.
Speaker 1:Yeah, cuz, I mean, I mean you came up on 400k right now.
Speaker 2:I know that you gonna Flip it or whatever do it with it, but you gonna settle it to the side.
Speaker 1:Yeah play with it for sure. But I mean that comes with age, though, cuz I mean I gotta have my OS money, like I gotta have my my rainy day phone yeah, because I can't just sit out here, blow my whole wall like I would in my, my, my early 20s, 18s, because I know I saw 20 grand cash in my hand at 20. Um, what was it? 19? And guess what I did? In a month it was gone.
Speaker 2:Yeah, you see I'm saying, but I just hope that they have people around them. That's advising them. You know, honest people cuz, like we were saying, you have emotion. Now it's gonna be be some people that's gonna, that's gonna be some leeches and attached to you. That's no, oh man, they gave us 18 or 400k and oh he naive. Let me get them.
Speaker 1:You know, oh he green, yeah he green, I'm gonna run them pockets, yeah, so you got a new best friend.
Speaker 2:Yeah, they could get the money. Like I said, I don't think it's no problem, but let's just hope that they got positive people around them with this money because you think about it.
Speaker 1:I this way I look at it. If you give a high school student NIA, what between the ages of 14 to 18, right yeah. If you give them that type of loot, that type of cash, that type of denaro, what as an instructor or teacher, can you tell me? Because I have now more money than you?
Speaker 2:Yeah, but I mean, like you said, if they put a limit on it, like a, you can't get it until you graduate, that's putting something you know place in place now. Don't give it to him. Don't give it to him why they in school show cuz that's. That's a main point, right there, I don't got a hit name. You say I, I'm in my bag, I'm in my bag already.
Speaker 1:Like you know what I'm saying, so like I even. I even say like, even if you give them an allowance Off that NIA Dylan in high school, bro, I'm getting three grand, a grand a week. I'm still getting more than you a month, right? I'm getting, so I'm getting more than some of these teachers.
Speaker 2:I don't think that's a.
Speaker 1:I don't think that's a good idea, because that that's just gonna cost too much Going on but if we, if we, if we look at it, these big schools around here that make that game revenue. Yeah off these players the jerseys, the merchandise, the Ticket sales, ticket sales, and you gotta you gotta understand. Even at five dollars, ten dollars a pop and you seeing the whole stadium full, it's a rival.
Speaker 2:Let's use. Let's use a university of Colorado. Is it happen, when they on them came over that what? Nobody's talking about Boulder, colorado? You're right. They came up in there. Take yourselves to the roof. People who wasn't even Buffalo fans buying jerseys, just just cuz it's dead. Yes, Deion, you know look at his glasses.
Speaker 1:Look at Deion's glasses by the shade all that they said Deion was wearing them shades to all interviews on the sidelines and everything he was. Mark, he was a marketing genius, shout out to Deion. But when he went to drop the merchandise, bro, they said they sold out four million Glasses within the first day. For sure, for sure. Now, now, how do you, how do you even compete with that marketing strategy, which is as genius because you now put yourself on that big of a part platform Because and you look at everybody that goes to that school but guess what I'm gonna want to do? I'm gonna want to go where he's at, because I've seen him do, I've seen the endorsements he get, I seen his track record. Yeah, like that, like that, right there, just a marketing aspect as a business individual, it's dangerous. And that's what I consider having motion, because you can play, you can take that, that ideal, and place it on to somebody else and teach them how to do that and how you Interact with individuals every day. And and now they have motion.
Speaker 2:Yeah, as long as they.
Speaker 1:Because that's like I tell people all the time, like now, that I have Reconstructed the way I think and I look at things. Now, even with like brand names Nike, grady, um um, adidas, all these different brands All it is is a name, just the same way that we hold our names. Like I'm Jackson, that's chance, if you know, somebody's talking about me. Every time I come in an area I am a walking brand. That's like if you look at all these rappers, they, they brand, they, they use their names as a Brand. You look at.
Speaker 1:MGK a brand? Yeah, all these rappers for sure. Because now they they put attached to a LLC, now they get residuals. So now you see all that stack of money. Only thing they did was Invest in their name, invest in their brand. And guess what they gonna do? See it on the back.
Speaker 2:Yeah, they put it in and that's what I'm saying. I'm hoping it's positive. People, smart people, honest people, that's, you know, in the circle talking to talking to these kids. That's that's getting these deals, man, because there's a lot of money being being passed around now. The midnight them and I'll do came out, man, I'm boosters was hot. I know they was hot, cuz now you lose the control factor.
Speaker 1:No, no, you know, you don't.
Speaker 2:With the NIL deal. No, you don't in a booster. You know, you know.
Speaker 1:Cuz now you can. You ain't got to be undercover with it, oh.
Speaker 2:Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, cuz now I could?
Speaker 1:I could throw you some cheese and you just tell me you paying it through the NIL. True, now, only thing you got to do is if I got a brand or I got an endorsement, guess what? Oh, I just told him a little check to be endorsed by him, yeah, so shoot you, you getting 400k off the rip.
Speaker 2:Shoot them that alumni come through.
Speaker 1:You might get both 450 another honey cake and as long as you playing good and you living up to that statue, yeah, you, you buy to go monstrous.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I should have played football high school.
Speaker 1:Well, I wish I would have played a sport period.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I wish I was out of play play cuz.
Speaker 1:I mean, you think about it, man, no matter how many times I walk out the door and I am a walking brand, I'm having motion. As long as my name is good, my name holds weight, yeah. And people like, shoot a we're Jack, hey, we're Jackson, we're chance, oh, I know. Chance to take care of me, a chance to get it done. Your name holds weight. That means you have emotion, you're in a positive light. Yeah, so that's what I, that's all I got to say about having motion, bro.
