Chapter 1: What are the best investments for NFL players?

0.049 - 21.023 Host

Threes, but yeah, I mean, people might blame Steph, but nah, I think... He definitely, I mean, played an impact in inspiring kids to pull up from logo and stuff. Steph and Odell, like Odell with the one-hand catch and Steph with the half-court, basically threes. Yeah, I think they've impacted the younger generation.

21.063 - 49.554 Host

Yeah, everyone does the one-hand catch now. It's crazy. Yeah. All right, guys, Prince of Mookamara here today. Man, you got knocked out quick. Too fast, man. Too fast. Yeah. Quick story. I had an eight. There was two eights on the table. So I'm thinking I have a three of a kind. Went all in. And then Bryce Butler had, his high card was jacked. My high card was five. And then I just, I ran. Damn.

0

49.654 - 72.169 Host

They beat like that, right? Yeah, yeah. Shit. You play a lot of poker? Only when I'm here. Oh, that's it? I love the honesty. Yeah. Yeah, but it's fun. And also because of here, I mean, you get to meet guys and rap with them. So guys at my table was like Mario Chalmers, Mike Bibby, Patrick Peterson, and those guys like that. So it was fun talking to them, talking a little stuff.

0

72.509 - 81.911 Host

You see some old teammates and some old rivals. Exactly. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You played 11 seasons. So that's a long time for NFL career. Yup. And then, um, at the other table, my boy spice Adams. Oh yeah.

0

81.971 - 93.234 Host

Yeah. So we have like bears connection there. And then Michael Blackson, I'm trying to roast him. I keep telling my camera guy, Hey, like if we see him, it's on site. Like I have three jokes ready for him. Yeah. So you're trying to get in comedy.

Chapter 2: How did Prince Amukamara win the Super Bowl as a rookie?

93.834 - 99.978 Host

No, but I just want to go viral roasted and roasted him. I love it. I saw on your IG bar, you're doing real estate now, Arizona?

0

100.178 - 124.076 Host

Yeah, I do real estate. I'm all over the place. I say like I'm a serial entrepreneur. So I have a kid's YouTube educational channel that I do. Yep. So that's been fun. It's called Mr. A Adventures. And then I own a couple of FedEx routes. Okay. And then I own an assisted living. Wow, all over man, I love it. How do you get into FedEx routes? That's fascinating to me.

0

124.177 - 141.107 Host

Yeah, so I would say like my partner found the deal, we looked at it and then we purchased it all in Arizona. So basically you pay and then you get money off all the deliveries, the package deliveries? So how it works is, so the trucks that pick up and deliver

0

141.687 - 165.207 Host

at your house they drop off and or they'll pick up or even um we do commercials so like businesses and stuff so those are in independently owned and then so fedex contracts with us who's i'm like a trucking company but fedex pays my trucking company to put their logos on our truck so that's why i have the fedex logo yeah yeah and then um yeah and we get paid um per pickup per drop

0

165.547 - 169.89 Host

Interesting. That's cool. It sounds like you really invested after your career in smart ways.

169.93 - 192.365 Host

Yeah, 100%. I mean, everyone says like, everyone thinks retirement is just kicking your feet up, having a pina colada on a beach, but that would be boring if you just did that all day. And so me having, I have five kids, just had triplets last year. Holy crap. Not saying that I don't want to stay at home with them, but I like to get a break a little bit. Also give my wife a break.

192.565 - 206.776 Host

I love that, man. How much of a shock were those triplets? Man, it was, yeah, it was a shock. I mean, it's crazy because my wife was saying like, hey, you should go get snipped. Like, we should be done. And then, yeah. And then it happened.

206.796 - 220.206 Host

Yeah, and then it happened. Damn. She reversed manifested. Exactly. Holy crap. The odds of triplets are like super low. Oh my gosh, yeah. Especially these days. I don't really hear about them these days. Yeah. Yeah, we had two boys, one girl. Wow, congrats. You gonna teach them football? Yeah.

221.748 - 238.143 Host

Um, if they, if they organically just go to, go to it. Yeah. But I'm, I'm not going to push them towards any sport, but they will be playing sports, especially with the NIL money that's been thrown around. Like, yeah. If you're trying to get college paid for that's, that's the way. There's high school players making more than pros now. I did not know that.

Chapter 3: What ventures is Prince involved in as a serial entrepreneur?

727.079 - 729.98 Host

Jordan. Dominant besides. Oh, Shaq. Exactly.

0

730.0 - 754.469 Host

That's what I'm saying. And so I feel like Aaron is in his own category. So, I mean, I would say best, I would say best quarterback, just like if Brady's under, if Brady's under, under center, he doesn't scare me. Really? No. No quarterback scares me because I'd rather be afraid of the wide receiver. But if Aaron is under the center, it's kind of scary because Aaron can put the ball back shoulder.

0

754.529 - 773.469 Host

He can put it anywhere. He's so smart and I feel like he's talented. Wow. Yeah. I mean, your perspective is important because you got the analysts that have their take on it, but you're actually playing with and against these people. It's like how I see NBA players talking about Kobe. Yes. Yeah, they do. And they say, yeah.

0

773.489 - 791.618 Host

They say he's that guy, but when you look at analysts, they don't even have him in the top 10. A lot of people who they talk about and say that he's that guy in the NBA is Kyrie Irving. Right. Like just everyone says like one-on-one, like, no, there's nobody else. Like that guy with the balls. Absolutely. You watch a lot of NBA? Yeah. Yeah.

0

791.718 - 801.443 Host

Who do you got? Who's your team? I don't have one. You like players? Yeah. So you're a fan of the game. Yeah, exactly. Yeah. I think the NBA is more exciting to watch than football. Really? 100%.

802.004 - 826.994 Host

I mean, the dunk is, is exciting. Like someone like a dunk or, um, like, cause the ball's always moving. So like Steph Curry running around shooting, uh, a three from however many foot out or Dame Lillard with a sidestep to win a game like that stuff. The only time we get that excitement is, is a Hail Mary, like. Right. And that's like a 2% chance. Yeah.

827.134 - 843.483 Host

And, or like with UFC, like someone could be, you want to feel like it's almost over. Oh no, it's not like you want to have that feeling like in football, you've never really, you never, it takes time for it. It's a slower game. And you see sports adapting to the now MLB has a pitch clock now. Yes, they do. Do you think football will implement that?

844.908 - 866.016 Host

Um, no, I think they're more, I mean, what they're doing is, I mean, making the game more, more safer. So you're not seeing a lot of hits, which I think a lot of people would love, but, um, it's getting more towards an offensive game because the NFL is starting to see more scoring, more people are watching versus they don't want a 10 and three game. Right. They want a 50 and 40 game.

866.056 - 881.548 Host

Cause that means there's a lot of scoring, a lot of excitement. Some of the scores this season, I'm like, is that a basketball game? It's like 60 points. I'm like, holy crap. When you were playing, it was low scoring games. Yeah, low scoring games. Yeah, I feel like guys took more pride in defense. Which made it tougher for you, obviously. It was way more physical.
