Transcript
00:00Four Nations thing a couple years ago in hockey,
00:02obviously the Olympic hockey this year,
00:04World Baseball Classic this season.
00:07Like, it's just, that's all it takes.
00:08Yes.
00:09Great players and effort.
00:10That's all.
00:10And then we're in.
00:10That's all you want.
00:11That's all you want.
00:12Hard to come by these days, unfortunately.
00:14Yes, it is, because you're incentivized not to care.
00:16Yeah.
00:16But, yeah, we were just talking about this whole Elijah Wilkinson thing,
00:22because I came in as well.
00:23I was like, damn, why did I just see this?
00:25And then all this back, I thought about,
00:27because I know they were probably, them Falcon fans were probably frying his ass,
00:30probably frying him up in it for no reason.
00:32All this man, because I don't know, did he start it or did they start with him?
00:35Anyways.
00:36Or was it one of the things where, thank you, Atlanta,
00:38and then you start getting flamed?
00:39Well, if I understand correctly, I mean, he's signing with a different team.
00:45Yes.
00:45And people were in the comments making jokes about, okay, you know, who's,
00:49well, dang, how are we going to replace the 10 holds a game that he had
00:52and all that kind of stuff.
00:53Okay, so he had a right to go back.
00:54Yeah.
00:54Okay, I thought it was one of those.
00:55If I'm seeing it correctly, he was responding to jokes that people were making about him.
01:01Now, again, how did he see them?
01:02Why is he in there?
01:03Exactly.
01:03Why is he reading the comments?
01:05But the first thing I thought about was like when Ether and Nas came on,
01:08he was saying, you?
01:09That's the first thing I thought about this morning.
01:11I was like, you?
01:12But then I didn't get the context of it.
01:14Okay, so they were messing with him.
01:15Y'all were flaming him first, and then he came back at you.
01:18Yeah, no, he didn't just sign with another team and then say,
01:21on the way out, let me give you some thoughts on the franchise.
01:24That's why the Nas thing came up.
01:26I know you ain't talking about us.
01:28Fans were making fun of him.
01:29And he was like, yeah, all right.
01:31Well, how about good luck with that clown show over there talking about the Falcons?
01:36Right.
01:37Now, he's going to Arizona.
01:38Y'all.
01:38Hold on now.
01:39He's going to Arizona.
01:40He ain't going to Baltimore or Kansas City.
01:44He's going to Arizona.
01:45He also replied to another comment by saying, LOL, y'all in hell right now.
01:50Have fun being ass next year.
01:52Yes.
01:52So he's saying that to Falcons fans.
01:54Okay.
01:54And then, this is really, I think, where he went too far.
01:59He started talking about 28-3.
02:01Yes.
02:01He put 28-3 in there a couple times.
02:03And there's no reason for you to bring that up.
02:04You just don't have to bring that up.
02:05Like, that's like when you are fed up.
02:07And that's when you get, okay, I bet I feel so.
02:09Because that hurt the fan that said that.
02:11He said that, too.
02:11Hurts your heart.
02:12Yeah, you can't.
02:12You can't.
02:13That's the line.
02:15You can't come back from that once he did that.
02:17But y'all can't mess with him first.
02:19All right.
02:19Yeah, he didn't have the best of times.
02:21He was the third string right tackle.
02:23Yes.
02:24Third string.
02:25And he played like it.
02:26Thrown into the fire because the starting right tackle.
02:28Yeah.
02:29Who just got.
02:30He had to play.
02:31He had to play.
02:31He had to play.
02:32He was the third string right tackle.
02:33And he started all year.
02:34The other third right.
02:35Every guy of his elk of his caliber would have struggled how much he did.
02:39Uh-huh.
02:39He had some good plays.
02:40Had bad plays.
02:41You know, but.
02:42He was not the reason that the Falcons didn't make the playoffs last year.
02:45No, he was not.
02:45But.
02:46There was first stringers that got paid a lot more money than him.
02:48That were bigger reasons why the Falcons didn't make the playoffs last year.
02:51But, yeah.
02:52I didn't realize that they came in him.
02:54Yeah, they came in him.
02:54Okay.
02:55But then the one of your teammates under the bus start.
02:57He did.
02:58That's what I'm saying.
02:59He said, ha ha, yeah, right.
03:00All the passes that Mooney dropped and pits blank off my line.
03:04Have fun rooting to lose the NFC South.
03:0628-3.
03:0728-3.
03:08Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.
03:10Laughing stock.
03:12He's going to Arizona, right?
03:13He's going to Arizona Cardinals.
03:14I got to make sure.
03:15I got to make sure.
03:16He's not going.
03:17He's not going to one of the perennial, like, great organization.
03:22No, of course not.
03:22He's going to Arizona.
03:23Which I do believe, if I'm not mistaken, I believe he also, that's where he was in the
03:29year between.
03:30Yes.
03:30Because he's played with the Falcons three out of the last four years.
03:33But then he did spend the 2023 season somewhere else.
03:37In Arizona.
03:38Oh.
03:38And then he came back here and then now he's going back to Arizona.
03:40Oh, okay.
03:41Well, I mean, he know the way of the land out there.
03:42He just likes the teams that are at the top of the alphabet.
03:45Yeah.
03:45Because he don't like top teams.
03:46He don't like the top teams.
03:47He didn't go further than that in his research.
03:50But, yeah.
03:51You going.
03:51Like, again, if you were going somewhere else.
03:54And I don't want to.
03:54I don't want to.
03:55Because they already clowned him and everything for the penalties and everything like that.
03:59So I'm not going to do that.
03:59He did commit quite a few penalties.
04:00Yes, he did.
04:00He did.
04:01Which was truthful.
04:02And he knew that.
04:02But I don't have the best of that man like that.
04:04But I will say this about him.
04:07Like, wow, God.
04:10One of my favorite movies, Andy, was Biker Boys.
04:12Loved Biker Boys.
04:13Lawrence Fishburne and him in there riding motorcycles.
04:16And the young kid kept trying to challenge him and everything.
04:18And he pushed him.
04:18He said, one race and you talking blank.
04:22One season of starting, you talking blank.
04:24Man, he didn't do nothing to be able to talk trash.
04:28To insult people.
04:29But yet, he was in defense.
04:31Well, also, and again, I'm on the Falcons fan side here.
04:35But who was he arguing with?
04:38He wasn't arguing with a starter.
04:40Exactly.
04:41That's why it was my thing.
04:42He was arguing with me.
04:43Yeah.
04:44But the thing about it is, is that, like, just say thank you and go about your business.
04:50Yeah.
04:51Because you ain't got to do that.
04:53Like, now you're going to bring Moody and you're going to bring Kyle and this thing.
04:55Yeah, he didn't need to do that.
04:57And then you didn't have to do that.
04:58He didn't need to do any of it, really.
04:59That's what I'm talking about.
05:00Be mad at the fan.
05:01Do the 28-3.
05:02All that.
05:03Do all that.
05:03But don't be talking about these dudes.
05:05Because these dudes, all y'all had a hand in y'all losing.
05:09All right?
05:10But bring your pillars and how many damn time they had to play from behind and shit because
05:13of your ass.
05:14You know what I'm saying?
05:16But, like, just walk away, man.
05:19Well, that's my thing.
05:20Again, if he was an all-pro type tackle guy, okay.
05:24Well, yeah, but people wouldn't have been saying that if he was.
05:26Yeah, they would have.
05:26Oh, yeah, maybe.
05:27Yeah, they would have.
05:28Yeah, they would have.
05:28Yeah, maybe that's true.
05:29You know that in this world.
05:30Maybe that's true.
05:30They would have.
05:31They'll say bad stuff about people anyway.
05:32Yeah, they would have.
05:33But just go on about your baby, man, because you're going to Arizona.
05:36Yeah.
05:37You're going to play in the NFL again next year.
05:40Yeah, man.
05:40And the guy that talked about you isn't, never did.
05:43Yeah.
05:43Got cut from JV 25 years ago.
05:45No, it was politics.
05:46It was politics.
05:47Politics, Andy.
05:47That's the reason why he got cut.
05:48Politics.
05:48Coach ain't like me.
05:49I guess, and again, I don't have, like, the original thread because it's been deleted,
05:53but, like, maybe somebody added him, so he saw it, so it popped up in the notifications.
05:57But it was just like, it's back to the Baker Mayfield thing from, like, a couple months
06:00ago with Stefanski.
06:01It's like, are you just, are you searching your own name?
06:05Because you weren't added in that original tweet.
06:07Right.
06:07Are you on there just searching, all right, I signed with this new team, let me search
06:10Elijah Wilkinson and see what people are saying.
06:13Yeah, man.
06:13Oh, they're hating on me?
06:15All right, let me get in there.
06:16And that could be the.
06:17You've got to have something better to do.
06:19But that could be the thing.
06:20Then argue with two or two.
06:21He ain't used to nobody talking trash about him.
06:23Okay.
06:24You know what I mean?
06:25Fair enough.
06:25Like, when you've been a backup a long time, you know, people don't really.
06:27Hey, man, you started 62 games in 10 years.
06:30See, there you go.
06:31Pretty good for an undrafted player.
06:32Pretty good for an.
06:33Or a undrafted free agent.
06:34But yeah, it just, you know, he was backed up in a corner by Falcom fans and decided.
06:42And that's the only.
06:43I mean, there's plenty of ways you can, like, pick at Falcom fans.
06:46But the 28-3 is the ultimate nut kick.
06:49Yep.
06:50Because everybody has, like, a friend that you kind of, you talk trash to, you go back
06:54and forth.
06:54But there's a line.
06:56Yeah.
06:56You know, there's like one.
06:57There's certain things you just will never say.
06:58Yeah, like you were born with no pinky.
07:01Or something.
07:01Or something like that.
07:02Like a personal birthday.
07:03There's something.
07:04Yeah, there's something that's off limits.
07:05Everybody's got something that's off limits.
07:06That's always off limits.
07:07And then, but yeah, as your friend or somebody, you know that.
07:11Okay.
07:12Say he done beat you down with mama jokes.
07:15The only way you're saying it is if you've snapped and gone too far.
07:18Yeah.
07:18Yeah.
07:18He done, like, he done clowned you all day about your mama and mama jokes.
07:22And we're talking about mama jokes.
07:23Yeah.
07:23All right, that's why you were born with no pinkies.
07:25Yeah, all right.
07:25We're talking with your mama.
07:26Now I'm going to talk about that one very specific thing that you're self-conscious about.
07:30Because you pushed me too far.
07:32That was Elijah Wilkinson going 28-3.
07:34Yeah, that's what it was.
07:35Y'all pushed him too far.
07:36It's too far.
07:37Hey, why is he going back out there to the zona?
07:40I did with the cactus.
07:41Yeah, he gets to the block for Gardner Minshew.
07:46Tyler Algiers.
07:47Tyler Algiers.
07:48Yeah, they're going together.
07:49I didn't see Tyler out there yelling at anybody.
07:51I didn't see nothing.
07:51It's because Falcons fans were nice to him.
07:53Because that's the thing why you have to respond to Falcons fans, though, because they're so funny.
07:57Like, they were roasting him in a very funny way on social media, so that got to him.
08:01Most fan bases are just like, yeah, you suck.
08:03Falcons fans had good jokes for you, so that's why you had to get back at them.
08:06All right.
