00:00We got a little cane on cane crime, I guess what what happened who talking about who so former
00:08canes tackle
00:11Orlando Franklin play with the king. Oh seven to eleven played about six seven years in the league
00:17broadcaster
00:19One of those offensive linemen lost a ton of weight that big Sedano's broadcast partner now
00:24So he called out I can't believe he did this
00:28Big mistake
00:30He called out cam Ward after the victory
00:36Because cam Ward was
00:40Going cam Ward was on was on SportsCenter right after the win now. It's 2 30 in the morning
00:49Up a storm a little bit like right as they got on Mike his guys were jumping around him
00:53Like it's not like he went up there answered the question and was like dropping
00:57You know the n-word and they were like
01:00Celebrating they jumped like give him the headset. Somebody went crazy and he's like, you know, you don't know he's live yet
01:07He was talking to his teammates. I don't know if he knew he was live
01:10I don't know if he knew he was live or recording whatever, but this was what Orlando Franklin said now broadcasting
01:16He's very strong
01:17They should never allow cam Ward to speak publicly for the rest of the season the s-word and the n-word being dropped on
01:24SportsCenter question mark
01:27WTF young man, you're trying to get drafted and you're a role model
01:31You have to be better than this a bad look for my alma mater and he tags Keane's football. Okay. No, first of all, I
01:40Will fight every person
01:44Who thinks this?
01:46Cam Ward is 21
01:4921 22 22 I think 22
01:52He ain't nobody's role model
01:54If you want to play football like Cam Ward fine, but it ain't his job
02:01to make sure every kid in the world is
02:05You know
02:07The way they are so stop that with that stop with that. The other thing is this
02:13It's more ESPN's fault than his
02:16Of course if you stick a mic in somebody's hand after that win
02:22Then there's gonna be
02:24Conversations that were not meant for TV. Nobody told him he was live
02:28Usually they say we're live or we're this they usually but when they don't they'll give you the headset and then
02:36You go
02:40So the fact that
02:43Another player
02:45Will call the player out and
02:48Not the organization that threw the mic on him right after the game
02:52after that thrill, you know that game and
02:57And and think that you might hear something you shouldn't be hearing
03:01Like come on man, like that's crazy now
03:06Look, I'm gonna tell you like this. I have a rule I
03:10Have a rule and I grew up in the real South not this BS South down here. I
03:17Grew up in Louisiana
03:19Well, the n-word was nothing nice
03:21Okay, it was demeaning and demoralized. It was meant that way and so that's the way it took I
03:30Don't use it and nobody's ever heard me use it. You know, why because I don't want nobody around me feeling comfortable using it
03:38So I
03:41Tell other
03:43Black men and women
03:47Don't be offended if
03:50People out there here you using the word if you don't want people to use it and you find it offensive you don't use it
03:57It's just a very strong call-out to never allow you to speak publicly for the rest of the season
04:03Okay, okay
04:05Here's the thing. The only difference between when he played and we can play right now is
04:09Nobody gave a damn what he had to say after a game. I haven't seen so but I'm just saying
04:16So now all of a sudden you're gonna act like oh I did it all the time
04:20there's a lot of situations where you haven't been in and
04:24you've been in those moments where you're celebrating a victory or something like that and
04:31If
04:32Somebody had a boom mic. They might hear something. They don't want to hear
04:37They might hear you talking trash about another player
04:41Right. Yeah, it's again like this goes to all right
04:45Fine, I can maybe
04:47Get this if he was answering the question, right? He wasn't even though they were just getting the headset on he was emotional
04:55They just had this crazy ass comeback and it's 2 in the morning, dude
05:00On a station that employs Pat McAfee. I think heavens to Betsy. They'll be all right
05:06Right, but but I just think listen
05:10if
05:12If you have a problem with it
05:15right
05:17You're very easily
05:18Get a contact with Cam Ward. This is what Duke Johnson said to him
05:23You can get all the game war and say listen brother you you you got everything going on for you, right?
05:28Don't have them catch you in in bad spots
05:31Don't have them catch you on the mic saying things that you you might have to deal with at a future date
05:37Just be careful. That's it
05:39That's what Duke Johnson said Duke Johnson replied to this on Twitter because a lot of Cain's are hosing them on Twitter
05:44With love bro. This isn't it?
05:46We as former Cain's need to just go down and talk to these kids or call them if we feel like we can help them
05:51right
05:53Don't see because here's the thing when a person does that
05:58He's standing on his podium like he's always been
06:05You know
06:07That way see one of the things that people don't really like take for example
06:12Deon Sanders
06:14Never curses. He does not you don't have to worry about he never did even when he played been in fistfights never curse
06:22You see what I'm saying? I have friends that way Keith Byers doesn't swear
06:28For whatever reason that's cool
06:32But he ain't out there calling everybody out
06:35Now, I don't know enough about
06:38What's his name?
06:39Orlando Franklin Orlando Franklin to know what he was doing when he was in Miami
06:45To know how he was you see what I'm saying?
06:48Yeah, and also like all of a sudden act like because you have a job that
06:54All the things that you did when you were a kid
06:58You should be more
06:59Understanding about playing at the U and going through them playing in big games and stuff like this
07:04Especially if you're a broadcaster now, right, you know, like it's you
07:08You know the broadcaster, you know, you know for a fact
07:12That's one of my biggest pet peeves is when athletes act like they never played
07:17Like they ain't never been in that situation
07:20Like they don't you know, I mean he could have said I appreciate the excitement
07:25I would tone it down on the language a little bit or I would give him time before we put him on mic
07:30He could have said that that definitely is. Well, that's definitely what it should have been like, right?
07:34They make they rolled credits went to SportsCenter here. They literally handed him the headset, right?
07:40You know, oh then then
07:43If if cam work was aware of the situation and he would have said no, I'm not going on camera
07:50Then what then we would have blasted him for that. Yeah
07:55of course how
07:57don't put people in situations where they can't win and they didn't do anything and
08:03that's the way like based on what was just said about him and
08:09based on the
08:10Alternatives that man just played a hell of a football game and he in the no-win situation
08:15He can't celebrate cuz no god forbid you celebrate too much
08:20So, yeah, I don't know man, I just think I just think you can do certain things
08:27To to show you're truly concerned about the situation and trying to help somebody out
08:32Or you could do things to step on your stand on your soapbox and make it sound like I would have never
08:39Yeah, I mean and definitely ways that you could say
08:43Sure, never talk to the media. He shouldn't be allowed to talk to the media and bad look for my alma mater
08:49Let me just say no it wasn't
08:53What a bad look for your alma mater would have been was would have been to lose to Cal
08:56Right, that would have been a bad look for your alma mater, right?
08:59Instead he has one of the best comebacks in school history. Not a great that that that's a good
09:04That's a great look for your alma mater. I think we get so caught up
09:08And
09:09having hot takes and
09:12It's not necessary. Yeah, it's not necessary every time you don't have to be the guy with the the
09:18Sly remark in the hot take you were there to try to help people understand football
09:24Yeah, I expect that from like Danny Cannell. No offense Danny. I don't think Danny would have did that
09:29I'm like I expect a
09:31Seminole or like Tim Tebow to come out and say that I don't expect a cane
09:34I don't expect a cane to say I expect somebody like Stephen a or
09:38somebody like skip Bayless or
09:41somebody like
09:43What's-his-name on Fox like those guys?
09:47But another player I think even if they had a problem with it the way they would have handled it
09:54Would have been far different
09:56Than the way Orlando handled
