Chad “Ochocinco” Johnson was ready to fight when he found out that people were talking about Shannon Sharpe on the Internet in connection with clickbait
Chad “Ochocinco” Johnson proved his ride-or-die skills when he found out that his “Drinking Night with Uncle and Ocho” co-host Shannon Sharpe had haters.
In 2023, Sharpe has had certainly one of his best non-football years ever. After deciding to leave FS1’s “Undisputed” and ending his controversial relationship with fellow sportscaster Skip Bayless, Sharpe has continued to improve his skills.
Sharpe has moved his interview podcast “Club Shay Shay” from Fox to The Volume, which also includes “The Colin Cowherd Podcast” and “The Draymond Green Podcast.” He also moved to ESPN to join Stephen A. Smith on “First Take.” But his best success can have come when he and Johnson teamed up for “Nightcap.”
Due to his big profession moves, Complex named Sharpe primary for “Most Entertaining Sports Media Personality Right Now”. While the former Denver Broncos player is extremely respected for his brand of sports entertainment, Sharpe says some people try to cheat his success.
On the December 10 episode of his late-night podcast, Sharpe told Johnson, “I don’t know if you know this, but y’all, there’s a lot of people who got the podcast and they only have the podcast, they only do the numbers if they’re talking about me and Stephen A.”
Sharpe said he didn’t care and would not subject the audience to constant bickering. But he just wanted to know why these people couldn’t create content without talking about him. Johnson then interjected, asking for the names of people who spoke about Sharpe but didn’t want to be named. “We are a team. No one is going to play with us like that,” Johnson said.
Sharpe calmly explained that people were only talking about him; Meanwhile, Johnson was already excited. “We made a package deal. Yes, uncle, listen, I’m not playing that bastard. I’m going to screw someone up about you, man,” he remarked, although his friend Sharpe didn’t think it was value wasting his energy on.
Johnson told a sports analyst that he couldn’t remain passive when people talked about him. The former winger had tears in his eyes as he told his friend: “Uncle, I’m with that boy. Did you hear me? I’ll be beating… aah… about you, uncle. Damn, I’m not playing this s—t boy,” he continued, adding that it “doesn’t suit him” how people could talk about a “good guy.”
Sharpe never said who he was talking about, but some viewers imagine they could know who the mystery person is. Speculative fans suggested: “It should be Whitlock, Bayless or B. Marshall. Everyone here who follows an oz. and a drink will go to war for UNC. Another said: “Man he ain’t talking about no one else but Jason Whitlock.”
Damn, he’s talking about none apart from Jason Whitlock.

While names like Brandon Marshall and Joe Budden also got here up, Whitlock was mentioned most frequently. If Sharpe was talking about the controversial conservative sports analyst, it could be the second time Whitlock has been thrown his way this yr.
During the Oct. 11 episode of “The Stephen A. Smith Show,” Smith talked about one person he believed would remain nameless, but called him a “fat, no-good bastard” who he despised to the core. He said the mystery man condemned black people, calling them the “devil’s seed.”
Thanks to these context clues, many fans imagine Smith was talking about Whitlock. Whitlock also thought the tirade was aimed toward him, so he joined in the joke by mounting his face on the Fat Bastard character from the “Austin Powers” film series.
