Episode # 3 with Joe Fernandez, son of NFL and Raiders Great, Swervin Mervyn Fernandez
A little audio feedback at first but don't let that distract you from a fun interview with a great guy, Joe Fernandez, son of NFL Raiders Great "Swervin Mervyn" Fernandez.
We go back in time and talk about what it was like growing up with a dad in the NFL with stories about his dad being chased around by Bo Jackson and Joe being dipped in the cold plunge pool by Art Shell to skate boarding on the treadmills in the Raiders locker room.
Joe also reflects on his experience with racism and how he uses his past to lead his children through it in today's world.
Of course we talk about his playing days for the Fresno State Bulldogs, why he chose not to pursue a career in the NFL as well as the current state of college football, including the transfer portal and the NIL
