[@gregoryhuckaby4892]

Making Johnny feel comfortable and not confronted by “gotcha” questions allowed us to hear the struggle we are now learning from. This type of interview leads to not only the betterment of Johnny, but also those that watch it. Accountability will always be a struggle with ego, but that doesn’t mean you can’t overcome. This was awesome and I wish nothing but the best for Johnny and Shay.

[@manager4409]

its because most reporters are snakes. Shannon is authentic.

That's an A+ interview. SS is really great at conversation with interesting questions and follow-ups. He's becoming my favorite channel.

[@TheSmartSneakerhead]

Man this is why so many players loved and appreciated Josh McCown. To go to the DC after Manziel told him what he said to show support to Johnny and call the DC out for the BS he said to a young player, even with the demons Johnny was facing, shows he views his teammates as people and not just players. Such Character! You dont have to be a hall of famer or superbowl winner to be a true champion in life. And McCown is an example of that.
