CJGJ with the Eagles Press Conference Version of my Favorite Half Baked Scene
Chauncey Gardner-Johnson spoke to the media on Sunday and it’s a breath of fresh air because the guy has no filter. He is incapable of filtration:
CJGJ: Still one of a kind 😤

That first part had me laughing. “I don’t care how you feel, I don’t care how you feel, and I don’t care how you feel. I’m here to win.” That’s the Philadelphia Eagles press conference version of Scarface from Half Baked telling his co-workers to stop hating because he’s on the grill, B. “Fuck you, fuck you, fuck youuuu, you’re cool, and fuck you I’m out.” Of course, CJGJ is here to lay the wood from the safety position and not sell weed to get Kenny out of jail.
It’s all water under the bridge with CJGJ. People were upset with the circumstances that led to him leaving for Detroit, but when he came back he apologized for saying that people here were obnoxious and that he “couldn’t stand those fuckers.” He didn’t have to apologize for that because it was true. People in the Delaware Valley are indeed obnoxious fuckers. Remember, someone stole his car and we were coming off a season in which the Birds lost the Super Bowl by a field goal, a Super Bowl, by the way, in which CJGJ was one of maybe two people on defense to actually play a decent game. So when he re-signed with the Eagles this offseason after a year in Detroit, nobody had any hard feelings at all. They knew they were getting a baller back in the secondary. That’s what’s great about this town. Short memories. One week you’re ready to commit your Phillies gear to the pyre, next thing you know they’re riding a one-game winning streak and everything is good. It’s fine. Respect to CJGJ for just telling it how it is instead of giving us a bunch of canned crap at the podium. His press conferences are exponentially better than his rap videos.
