The 8:21 mark was hilarious when Channing called Mike a liar about not having sex at 17, Mike said "WAIT BROTHER!!!", Channing's face:whoa:

Overall it was a solid interview, not great. Didn't really learn anything I didn't know. It was a usual Mike interview where people were on edge to say or ask the wrong thing out of fear of him snapping on them.

I think he does too much drugs but it's his way of escaping and coping but it doesn't make for good interviews because he's rambling, damn near incoherent. Like he will say some shyt in one breath that's thought provoking but then the rest of what he's saying becomes scramble and babble.

He said he wanted them to get eminem next, that would be a good interview.

Dawg, that’s why I said in the Smith thread, if Boselli is a HoF, Fred should’ve been in. Seems like a large segment of the Jags fan base attach themselves to Boselli even tho Fred the more accomplished of the two
Boselli was considered the absolute best player at his position for close to a 5 year stretch while Taylor was never considered the best running back. Hell he only made a single Pro Bowl.
I'm not saying Boselli should be in but they basically used the same logic with Terrell Davis when they inducted him (and I would argue he shouldn't be in either)

I don't love those arbitrary stats because they're meant to prove a point by using particular numbers. OJ Simpson and Jim Brown both have higher yards per carry than Fred Taylor, but they have about 2400 and 2,300 carries respectively. However, Brown played in an era where he played only 12 and 14 game seasons while OJ played mostly 14 game seasons. So they couldn't accumulate as many carries as Taylor per year. However, they also stayed healthier than Taylor.

What hurts Fred is he was just a one-time pro bowler at a time and was never a first team all-pro. I agree that Tony Boselli shouldn't have gotten in though.

It's interesting that even in Tyson's older age, he still strikes, fear in men younger than him. I wonder how long that will last.
