This is the first year the Olympics are going to have flag football, correct? Yeah. Who would be like the top priority? I mean, Saquon Barkley, I think, right? It's got to be one of the top priorities. I don't know if, I wonder if there'll be like a, if teams will allow their players to play in it.
I know the NFL is allowing them, but you think like teams, like you think they'll start putting it in contracts where like they can't play in the Olympics.

Chapter 4: What happened at Shedeur Sanders' draft party?
Starting off hot, right?
Starting off hot, but we're excited for it. Our boy, Mr. Blankenship, got his high school jersey retired, which was pretty cool.
It was crazy, though. Never hit me. Didn't hit me. Walked in our field house and saw some of my old teammates and my old coaches. I'm like, oh my gosh. It's starting to feel real.
Yeah.
Then I get out. And I hate when stuff is about me. I hate being just the center of attention. Yeah. Um, and I started, I had a speech on my phone, you know, I had bullet points anyway. And my fiance. Did you read it straight off your phone? Dude, no. Well, it was crazy. So you know how sometimes they don't recognize your face, your phone. Yeah. And it went straight to the password. It did that.
I mean, you know what? Screw it. I'm fixing to just do this from the heart. And I was already tearing up. Fixing. Yeah, it was from the heart, but it was great. It's always better that way. It's always better, man.
When it comes from the heart. It's home, man. How'd it go, though? Did you go without tears? Did you have to take a couple pauses?
They started flowing. I say flowing. I was teary-eyed, voice was cracking a little bit when I was looking at my family, my family fiancee in the front row. And I'm like, golly. You know, like, they have supported me this whole time. And, yeah, man, it hit home. And then I flew through the rest. I didn't want to take anybody else's time, you know.

Chapter 5: How did the Eagles perform in the Super Bowl?
Yeah. No, I mean, he preaches what he coaches. I mean, even at home.
Yeah.
You know, so he's doing everything right. And obviously it shows. And, you know, we're glad to have him still.
Yeah.
All right, Mr. Blankenship. Today we are joined by one of the most influential Philly natives across music. I like that. Sports and entertainment. I like that. Your Philadelphia Eagles unofficial hype man, Gilly Da King.
I like that because a lot of people will be like, he's the mascot. And I'm like, what? Like, I'm not the mascot. Y'all take it a little too far. I don't want to take my guy's job, you know what I mean? But I appreciate y'all for having me, man. How'd you get the nickname, Gilly? I got it from, I was always Little Gilly in the hood of North Philadelphia.
I used to be Little Gilly from North Philly. But when I started rapping, I was always intrigued by this movie called Young Guns and Billy the Kid. He was a smooth-faced gangster that looked like he was young, but he really wasn't that young. And I was very intrigued by that, so I went with Gilly the Kid when I decided to start rapping. So it was Gilly the Kid. And then I grew up.
At some certain point in time, I had to become a man, you know what I mean? I figured I'd change it to the king.
So what was it like growing up in Philly?
