 So yesterday there were a lot of Ravens fans that definitely tuned in and just a lot of football fans period that tuned in to the latest episode of uninterrupted because it featured our guy Lamar Jackson. And we always want to see what he bought to say because you know he don't really speak too much, especially at length. So it was nice hearing him be able to just really chop it up and be himself because it wasn't like he was speaking to the media. So he had to know he was more laid back, more relaxed, more chill. But there were also a lot of headlines that have been coming out yesterday, particularly about the black quarterback in this day and age and the sort of racial bias that there is against the black quarterback in the NFL. And then Adam Schefter, today Adam Schefter put out a headline saying Ravens Lamar Jackson said racial bias against black quarterbacks is still there in the NFL. And the link was to an article that Ravens own Jamison Hensley. Well, he doesn't work for the Ravens, but he covers the Ravens for ESPN and linked his article talking about that part of the episode. But Lamar, he quote tweeted that and he said that was not my response to that specific question. Don't start that Adam. And he did, of course, a little eye roll and emoji. So he just saying, like, look, hold up, Shefti. That's not what I was referring to. But let's actually listen to that part of the show so you can hear exactly what he was saying that he was referring to. And just to give you a quick reference, LeBron James was talking about how he has so much haters. And sometimes even before games, just to get in the zone to get prepared, he'll actually go on social media and he will look for what haters are saying about him. Because so many people always doubt him, but he just loves to prove him wrong. He loves proving them wrong. So LeBron James had just finished talking about that. And let's listen to the rest. That's right. He had one of the most story successful collegiate careers at quarterback anyone's ever had. And the pro teams are asking him if he wants to switch positions to play something else. So again, they were just recapping what happened to Lamar Jackson. Of course, we know Heisman winner broke all these crazy records at Louisville as their quarterback throwing records, rushing. Just everything. He just killed it. But at the combine, a lot of these teams will ask, Hey, you want to work out as a wide receiver? You want to play something other than quarterback? And it's like, man, this dude just came from winning the Heisman. Could have actually won two Heismans. But they're like, oh, yeah, that's cool what you did. But you want to play something else? That's why they said it was disrespectful. And then they asked on the show interrupted. They asked Lamar, like, why did why did they ask you that? Now, and you know Lamar, like, he knows the cameras on like, even though this is not normal media Lamar, but he knows the cameras are on. And he knows like with him is crazy because he has to always watch what he says because anything that he says. A lot of people like to twist his words. They like to not even just his word, but they just like to twist stuff when it comes to Lamar Jackson. Period. Period. They just love twisting stuff around and changing stuff. So he has to be extra careful. So he took the high road and I appreciated that because, you know, like he, he can't always be real. You know, it's like, you know, he want to say something, something, but he just can't because he's him. So they asked him like, why, why, why did they do that? Why do they make you do that? Why do they try to make you do that? I don't know. I don't know. I have no idea. But we know he got an idea. Anyway, let's keep going. You do a lot of history with them not wanting black guys to play quarterback. So that was the statement right there. There's a lot of history with them not wanting black guys to play quarterback. We have seen it time and time again where they want to change, especially if a guy is deemed a black quarterback and he's fast. Then they like, well, hey, that's an athlete. That's not a court. That's an athlete. Even a guy, I think right now Malik, what's his name? Malik Willis, I believe where the reports have been coming out saying that people are surprised how much information he can retain. And I know it's happened to guys like Terrell Pryor. He was another one. He ended up switching to wide receiver. He played quarterback flag a little bit, but he ended up switching to wide receiver. And it also happened. There was another one. I cannot think of his name off the top of my head right now, not Cardale Jones. I can't think of the guy's name off the top of my head. I think he played for Ohio State. It was a quarterback and he ended up switching, not Braxton. I can't think of his name. Y'all will know who I'm talking about, but he was a quarterback in college and then he ended up trying to switch to receiving. I think he went to the Texans, but anyway, let's keep going. But this is the statement that Lamar was replying to that, again, about the black guys. They're not really wanting black guys to play quarterback. It started like this going way back 70s, 80s and it's still, it's dying off. They don't give me more reasons to. It's dying off, but it's still there. That's why I need that championship. That's why I need that championship. And boom, that was it. That was it. That's why he said he needs that championship. Because since a lot of people are saying that they don't want black guys to play quarterback, that's what he was responding to and saying. That's why he needs that championship to just show people like, hey, we can do this too. We can retain information. We can call plays. We could do this thing too. We can make it happen. So it just seemed like he just wants to prove a lot of people wrong. And just really going over the show yesterday, some things that I saw from there just to start from the beginning. Lamar talked about how he obviously watching the Super Bowl, he would have rather been in it. And he said he felt like the Rams were going to win from jump since they had been there before. So he felt like that experience was going to help him. He talked about Aaron Donald. He said with Aaron Donald, you have to watch him every play. But he said he doesn't talk to his teammates like, oh, you got to watch AD on every play. Because he said that's something that they already know. So he gives him that dignity and gives him that respect. Like, y'all know you got to watch Aaron Donald. Because they should know. Like everybody knows that. Like that ain't no shock or surprise or anything like that. But they asked him, what do you think it is that makes Aaron Donald so special? And he said it's his work ethic. Now he also talked about his pregame. What does he do pregame? He said Hollywood every single game before every single game. Hollywood comes and picks him up. But he said he doesn't like being at the stadium too early. He said he usually gets there like an hour early. But he don't like being there too early. That's how I am at the airport. Because I know like, I know for my mom, like when I remember going to the airport before. She would want to go there like hours early. And that's smart because the earlier that you are there, especially with the lines nowadays too, you want to get there. You don't want to get there too late. But if you get there early, like you could chill. You could relax. If you get there late, like on my time at CPT time, then you might be rushing. You might be like starting to stress out because you got to wait. But anyway, that's beside the point. But he said he don't like to get to the airport. He don't like to get to the games too early. He said that he studies all week. But he said defenses. They don't play him like they play other quarterbacks. And that's when LeBron stepped in. He's like, well, yeah, they try to do QB containing. And I love listening to LeBron James speak about football. I love it because you can tell like this guy knows what he's talking about. He knows what he's talking about. And I just always really appreciate that. They asked him like going into your fifth year, like what are you trying to do different? What are you trying to change? And he said that early on he was more immature. But not necessarily in a bad way. More in a naive and experienced type of way. But he said he just wants to be more mature, moving forward. And they asked him if he would consider his career a failure if he didn't win the Super Bowl. And he said, nope. Nope. There was no hesitation on that. No, it would not be a failure. I was like, oh, okay. And he said because he made it out of his environment. And he talked about how a lot of people in his environment, they know how to play football. He said they're ballers, but a lot of them just don't make it out because of the situation. And he also talked about how LeBron is his favorite basketball player. And then that's why he really wanted to be on the show. And he talked about wanting to be a billionaire and a champion. He said ever since he was a kid, those are two of the things that he wanted to make happen. Now there was a part where LeBron, LeBron said you can't care what people say anymore. You really can't because they're always going to critique everything that you do. And yeah, LeBron and NBA side. Yeah, he knows better than everybody. And he said he lost himself his first year in Miami when he came down and joined the Heat. He said they went to the championship that year and lost. But he also talked about how, whether you believe what people are saying about you or not, you can't get caught up in it. And LeBron, he also talked about how, and we talked about this earlier how before games, he'll go on social media to see what people are saying about him because they're fusing. And he loves proving people wrong. And then of course, yeah, he pointed at LeMond said he knows because they told him he couldn't play quarterback and they wanted him to switch positions. So that was what we were talking about at the beginning of this video. So we don't need to cover that again. But they also asked him if you ever have to tell a coach like, let me cook. And he said that with John Harbaugh, that Harbaugh wants to win just as bad as he does. So he really doesn't have to tell him that. He said he's focused on. He said in his first game, his first game as a starter week one in Miami in 2019, he said Harbaugh told him that it would be a lot of noise. And it was because we were loud. He said the mics might go out. And LeMond was thinking that, well, that never happened before. But then it ended up happening. But he said that he couldn't hear any of the players coming in. So but he got everybody lined up. So he just had to call the plays and whatnot. And they obviously worked because, yeah, you remember the result of that 2019 week one game. Now they did ask them all to call a play right then and there. They said, hey, so people can have a better understanding of just how difficult it is. Call a play right now. And he was like, no, I ain't about to call my plays right here on TV. No, I ain't doing that. But he did end up calling a play. And he also confirmed that he says can. If he sees something in the defense that he doesn't like, so he can change the play. So I know there have been a lot of questions about audibles and whatnot. Now that there's still is a question about it because we've heard that Greg Roman sends Lamar Jackson to the play with two plays with two options. I don't know how true this is or not. We heard that he sends Lamar to the huddle with two plays. So he either has option A option B. So that's something that we got to look a little deeper and see how that is. And then one of the last questions that he asked that he was asked is if he has a way that he wants people to feel when they watch him play. He said he doesn't really care how people feel. So he just wants to go out there and win. That's it. And that's just been with Lamar. That's been the only thing he's been saying for the past four years. He just wants to win. I mean, they do do a lot of it when he's in line up. But that's it. And he said he wants the opposing fans to be sad. So Ravens fans to just leave out them stadiums happy. And that's what we all want. Every time we go watch the Ravens play, we just want to leave out the stadium happy. Any time we watch the Ravens play period on TV, whether you watch it on the stream, whether you're watching it live, you just want to finish the game happy. That's all we really want. And we get that a lot. And sometimes we don't get it so much, but we get it a lot. But it was cool, man. Y'all make sure you watch it for yourself. It's just always nice hearing professionals, professional athletes in a more relaxed, a more calm setting. It's more chill. It's more like, yeah, it's cameras rolling and whatever, but we could be a lot more just vibing. That's it. So appreciate y'all. Love y'all. I hope y'all having a great day. We out.
