00:00Joe Burrow next.
00:04Now it was bad enough that Joe Burrow's house got robbed while he was in Dallas for Monday
00:10Night Football on Monday night, but then there was like a nonstop fever to get every single
00:16detail of the robbery out into the public, including his lady friend that I guess called
00:24the robbery in.
00:25Apparently Joe was not a fan of not only being robbed, but of how people basically
00:32found all the details of his house robbery.
00:35Here's Joe Burrow.
00:36I'll start out by saying something before any questions today.
00:40So obviously everybody has heard what has happened.
00:45I feel like my privacy has been violated in more ways than one, and way more is already
00:51out there than I would want out there and that I care to share.
00:55So that's all I got to say about that.
00:57It's part of it.
00:59It's, uh, yeah, this, you know, we live a public life and, you know, one of my least
01:07favorite parts of that is the lack of privacy and that has been difficult for me to deal
01:14with my entire career.
01:16Still learning, but I understand it's the life that we choose doesn't make it any easier
01:23to deal with.
01:24Fair enough.
01:25But, you know, cry me a river when you are a superstar athlete and you choose that path
01:34to be an athlete and you're a star player and you are paid what you are paid.
01:40There is no avoiding it, kid.
01:42It's just that simple.
01:43You, the lack of privacy.
01:46Good luck.
01:47They'll never be privacy when you're famous.
01:50That's it.
01:51It's over.
01:52You're never going to get it.
01:53You can try all you want and they're still going to pry into your life.
01:56They're going to follow you.
01:58They're going to bother you.
02:00You're going to get hounded no matter what.
02:02And here's another thing, OK?
02:04It's one thing to be famous and to be a star quarterback in the NFL, which is automatic
02:09fame and fortune.
02:11It's another thing when you show up at the Met Gala wearing, you know, the suitless back,
02:18you know what I mean?
02:19And then showing up at games with your fashion statements and your red carpet looks, trying
02:26desperately to gain more fame and attention with your fashion and your hair and your hair
02:32tips and your fancy clothes.
02:34And you're at the Met Gala like you're just asking for it.
02:38Like are you kidding me?
02:40Here's the deal.
02:42When when I saw Mario Lemieux get drafted by the Pittsburgh Penguins in the 80s, this
02:50guy was so private, he wouldn't even talk to anyone.
02:53He wouldn't talk to the media.
02:55He pretended like he was French.
02:57He really didn't know English, but he ran with that for 12 years.
03:02He just wasn't approachable.
03:04He never went out in public or did anything ever.
03:07You couldn't get near him.
03:11You could cover him as a reporter in Pittsburgh at the arena, and that was it.
03:15After a game, you could ask him a question or two.
03:18That was it.
03:19They literally never let anyone near him.
03:22And I think this guy is incredible, but I think he's asking for it the way he lives.
03:28Let's just face facts.
03:29I mean, it's every week he shows up with some outfit on looking for attention.
03:35Like, you know, you see Mike Tomlin the way he rolls into a stadium.
03:39Guy shows up in sweats with a cup of coffee.
03:42Nobody cares about you when you're wearing sweats and you got a cup of Joe in your hand.
03:47But when you dress like Joe Burrow does in silk clothes and his, you know, fancy movie
03:53theater outfit he had on the other day, Mike, you can't tell me I'm wrong.
03:58He's like, he thinks he's a movie star.
04:00He thinks he's a fashionista.
04:02I don't want to hear it.
04:03He asks for the attention.
04:05He's begging for it.
