Obviously there's been some whispers about you returning to the NFL.
Talk to us. You know there's some talented young
quarterbacks out there. There's an established veterans.
Which quarterback would you most want to play with right now man.
Let me just put this out here real clear right now.
You know I'm not really focused on playing ball but if I had to pick a
quarterback I would go with Josh Allen. No the guy's been tremendously insane
these past couple of weeks. You know he he he's been putting on a
performance. He's trying to go down in history.
You know I'm I think the MVP is is headed his way if you keep up with what
he's doing. Well.
So obviously the bills have been looking really good this season and the Cowboys
were looking pretty good last weekend. I understand he made some money betting
on that game to the tune of about thirty seven grand.
You had a little chat with Jerry Jones. I don't know if we should read anything
into that or if you were just gloating about the money you made.
Oh yeah. You know the meeting with Jerry which is
really more so just you know buddies just you know catching up excited about
the win. I got some things up my sleeve.
I need to talk to them about something I've been working on for a long time.
And you know I'm if I'm talking to anybody about business or whatnot.
Well I mean look we saw that you know the proceeds from your bet against the
Bengals went to your new NFT company Personal Corner.
Tell us a little bit about that. Tell us about what you're doing there.
You know tell us about you know what makes it interesting and where it's
going. Well you know I think the cool thing
about with three is is a creative economy.
And you know and me being an athlete you know especially an athlete you know who
want to control you know who want their own brand I think where he gives you the
perfect opportunity to do so. So you know what we build in over a
personal corner. You know we build the of for athletes
can take control of you know their personal brands you know and a lot of a
lot of guys when you would know how to start you know I built grow up to it.
And I had a lot of success with that. I'm very excited.
You know I always just tell my lady you know if you could build for weight and
build for you know and always been a big helper you know what guys in the NFL.
So I understood as I grew to learn as with three stuff and build a nice team
around me you know walk me through. And also we helped build you know
athletes. So basically just trade this big you
know hope for us to come in and just control our name image and likeness and
we own it. So I just think it's something unique.
You know something is needed and it's a cool opportunity and we hope it provides
that well. And you mentioned name events like this
that's no longer just in the professional round when it comes to the
NFL. Do it in the N.C.
double play now with college athletes. How does that change the game for
something like this. Absolutely.
I think I think it evens the playoffs. Even the playing fields.
I think if you really want to leverage something you really going to have to
put your money where your mouth is because you know if it's this easy for
guys get money I think you have to bring something different to the table.
You know I always always felt like you know a lot of guys who come from rock n
roll which is poverty. We really all understand when you
anyway. You know show us how to you know take
true ourselves from the to 10 15 you expand whatever career videos that we
plan and show us how to leverage and make the most for us and not only us but
our families. You know within that time you know and
it has been a cycle you know from from my experiences I've yet to truly you
know see that you know at the end of an athlete's career you will see the
marketing guide the agents whoever that was affiliated with the athlete.
They moved on to be successful but to be a lot of those guys who is not
successful. And I think that was the area that you
know that I always wanted to explore. And I think with the company personal
corner that was built it is going to provide a nice infrastructure you know
for athletes to utilize their name image and likeness the right way.
Well it does luck. I mean we're Bloomberg.
We love to talk about the money. But I need to take you back to 2010.
Right. The 2010 draft men only two wide
receivers were taken in the first round. You obviously were one of them.
Fast forward 20 20 to six wide receivers selected in the first round of this
year's draft. Talk to us about the evolution of the
wide receiver position. What does it mean and how is it
impacting the game. Well I want to say so much.
It's not just the evolution of the wide receiver position.
It's the entire NFL. You know I think the NFL has moved has
moved towards the college style. And I always felt like that that day
will come. And I think that's what's going on.
You know you've got a lot of talent that's angry.
And you know NFL I want to say that in my assumptions the NFL has took notes
and a lot of these great coaches took notice.
You know not there's not just one great receiver that's put three you know I
skipped over to for a reason. You know Mike I'll go to Cincinnati
Bengals. Those guys got three number ones on one
team. Yeah.
You know and you know you're going to see a lot more of that in.
And I just think it's just that the whole entire league is involving just
some special not think you're going to start seeing a lot of different types of
records you know bro just due to the growing of the NFL.
And I liked it a lot of the wide receiver position.
We got your take on what quarterbacks are looking at.
Who stands out to you right now. Who is playing the best man.
That's a tough choice. You got Justin Jefferson.
Yeah. You know in his body.
Know. But that one guy you know that's really
been. And he he's going to tell you straight
up. He's him.
You know that step on deeds. Yeah.
You know I'm scared to step on VIX. He is now arguably the best receiver.
He is the best receiver at this career moment.
And I think human Josh Allen going to continue to keep performing at a high
level. You know I think that step step during
the offseason you know where you supposed to establish that in those guys
can be hard to beat. And finally this is a sports betting
show. We mentioned that you've made a pretty
decent that last week made thirty seven grand.
Are you placed on any bets for week three or really you bets on for the
season. You make it all red MONEYLINE.
Yeah I'm going to be honest with you. It depends on you know it depends on how
much good it is. You know I'm not I'm not a big better.
But when I do I'm angry you know. So you know in my philosophy behind it
is. It is not a game not a game of football.
You're not paying attention to you know who the person is IBEX it's to the
team's philosophy. IBEX is to match ups you know across the
board. You know highlight everything you know.
And you know I follow I fall. I just followed a team from last week.
You know all the way leading up to the following week you know you get reports
and stuff like that about who's playing and who's not playing.
No a lot of stuff going to mean making a bet.
Well I mean look you know we've got time for one more question here.
I just have to ask you know this is a sports betting show right.
I mean the boom has completely hit the United States by storm.
You know what are your thoughts on the legalization of sports betting.
What does that mean from the NFL perspective from the perspective of
players. You know actually gambling on games.
We know about Calvin. Really.
How should the NFL look at sports gambling and how can they please ma'am
be honest with you on far players ban no games.
You know. That they shouldn't be involved.
Players should be involved before the fans and you know guys is not
participating in the game. I feel like they should be able you
know. You know because it is fun you know.
You know I don't think it's cool for you know a group to dictate why someone is
doing something because I believe a lot of people make bets you know just to
have fun in you know like I did. I'm not a big better.
But you know I feel good about that. I place 10000 now 137 K
you know. So yeah I you know it's rules
regulations. They have to put in place.
But I think they shouldn't steal all the fun.
You know for the guys that's not playing that want to participate in other sports
that's not involved with the actual sport other athletes.
This does not involve the actual sport that they're betting on.
I think you know they should find a place where you know that can happen
because I think it'd be fun. It'll be fun for a lot of people because
they get my reaction. I think people enjoy my reaction.
