“It was February. I went and got a dog. I had to pay a lady to leave her country, fly to another country, pick the dog up, fly to LA, drop the dog off, and then get back.”

“10. 10 bands… American dollars.”

“Man, you pay $10,000 for a dog? Come on, man… could have got you a Pom from the city man for $300. I’m trying to wrap my head around this man. You know, I’m really very conscious on my financial decisions. I’m trying to understand you paying 10,000 for a dog.”

Ochocinco couldn’t believe unc Shannon Sharpe paid $10,000 dollars for a Pomeranian 😂😂😂😂

Ocho:”Unc come on man I could’ve got you a Pomeranian from the city for $300”

Johnson humorously teased Sharpe about how he could have acquired a Pomeranian for just $300 from the city, highlighting the vast contrast in their financial approaches. He expressed astonishment over the $10,000 price tag and playfully inquired if the dog could perform extraordinary tricks or feats for such a significant sum.

This friendly banter between the two former NFL stars offers a glimpse into their personalities and their unique perspectives on finances. While Shannon Sharpe opted for a lavish purchase when acquiring his beloved Pomeranian, Chad Johnson’s more frugal approach to financial decisions adds an amusing twist to the story.


Shannon Sharpe Revealed He Had To Stop Himself From Beating Up Skip Bayless

Shannon Sharpe’s recent revelation about restraining himself from physically confronting his former co-host, Skip Bayless, sheds light on the intense emotions and tensions that can arise in the world of sports commentary. The candid disclosure came during an appearance on the Stephen A. Smith Show, where Sharpe shared the deeply personal impact of his interactions with Bayless on the set of “Undisputed.”

The source of the conflict between Sharpe and Bayless was a heated debate over NFL legend Tom Brady, which escalated to a point where personal attacks were made. Bayless’ remarks that seemingly belittled Sharpe’s NFL career, despite both of them being celebrated figures in the sport, cut deeply.

Sharpe’s emotional reaction, as he recalled calling his sister, brother, and friends immediately after the incident, highlights the professional and personal toll that such confrontations can take. Despite the debates and differences that are an integral part of sports commentary, the boundary between professional rivalry and personal attacks was evidently crossed.

Sharpe’s need to exercise restraint in the face of such emotional turmoil showcases the complex dynamics and pressures that underlie high-profile TV programs. It serves as a reminder that even in the competitive and sometimes combative world of sports commentary, there are real human emotions at play.


Shannon Sharpe Couldn’t Believe When Chad Johnson Claimed He Beat LeBron James 

Chad “Ochocinco” Johnson’s bold claim that he once defeated LeBron James in a 1-on-1 game during LeBron’s time with the Miami Heat left co-host Shannon Sharpe in disbelief. During an episode of “Nightcap With Unc and Ocho,” Johnson confidently stated that he had beaten the NBA superstar with a final score of 21-17.

Sharpe immediately called out Johnson for what he perceived as a tall tale, expressing skepticism about the authenticity of the story. Despite Sharpe’s doubts, Johnson adamantly maintained that he was telling the truth, even specifying that they had wagered a thousand dollars on the game.

Johnson, a former NFL wide receiver, also emphasized his quickness on the court and how it took LeBron by surprise. According to Johnson, LeBron commented on his remarkable speed during the game. Further adding to his narrative, Johnson claimed that he could have pursued a career in both soccer and basketball, citing his experience in soccer. Sharpe remained dubious, especially when Johnson asserted that he could come off the bench for the Miami Heat now and win the NBA Sixth Man of the Year award.

While the authenticity of Johnson’s story remains highly debated, it certainly provided an entertaining and humorous moment on the show. Sharpe’s reaction exemplified the incredulity shared by many upon hearing such a remarkable claim.
