0:00:00.720 --> 0:00:04.000
<v Speaker 1>Ka Boom Bob. If you thought more hours a day,

0:00:05.040 --> 0:00:08.200
<v Speaker 1>minutes a week was enough, I think again. He's the

0:00:08.280 --> 0:00:12.320
<v Speaker 1>last remnants of the old republic, a sole fashion of fairness.

0:00:12.440 --> 0:00:15.400
<v Speaker 1>He treats crackheads in the ghetto cutter the same as

0:00:15.440 --> 0:00:19.479
<v Speaker 1>the rich pill poppers in the penthouse, to clearing house

0:00:19.520 --> 0:00:23.160
<v Speaker 1>of hot takes, break free for something special. The Fifth

0:00:23.239 --> 0:00:28.440
<v Speaker 1>Hour with Ben Maller starts right now. The mail is

0:00:28.480 --> 0:00:34.400
<v Speaker 1>about to be delivered here in the air everywhere. Run

0:00:34.720 --> 0:00:38.680
<v Speaker 1>for the hills because it's the Sunday mail Bag. No

0:00:38.960 --> 0:00:42.640
<v Speaker 1>movers and shakers on. We go above and beyond the

0:00:42.800 --> 0:00:47.680
<v Speaker 1>call of duty as we provide you with marginal podcasting,

0:00:47.800 --> 0:00:51.720
<v Speaker 1>even on a Sunday. Sunday Sunday, the calm before the

0:00:51.760 --> 0:00:55.160
<v Speaker 1>storm of the NFL Draft is sure to cause a stir.

0:00:55.280 --> 0:00:58.960
<v Speaker 1>We're here because four hours a night aren't enough. We

0:00:59.040 --> 0:01:01.000
<v Speaker 1>do this eight day, do we? At least I do

0:01:01.320 --> 0:01:04.120
<v Speaker 1>a spinoff of the Overnight Show. We do not have

0:01:04.160 --> 0:01:07.720
<v Speaker 1>to walk on eggshells here because it's a podcast, not

0:01:07.800 --> 0:01:11.760
<v Speaker 1>the normal trial and tribulations, the grind of the radio show.

0:01:12.680 --> 0:01:17.400
<v Speaker 1>And here we are yet again, and David Gas Scott

0:01:16.920 --> 0:01:26.600

<v Speaker 1>be Saturday, that that you were sam bagging a lot

0:01:49.760 --> 0:01:52.960
<v Speaker 1>of reviews and comments on the show, and so I

0:01:53.040 --> 0:01:56.840
<v Speaker 1>had to extract those, put those on my desktop and

0:01:57.000 --> 0:01:59.720
<v Speaker 1>I am I'm gonna crick kick off the mailbag edition

0:01:59.760 --> 0:02:03.560
<v Speaker 1>for today's for today show. So this is another we

0:02:03.640 --> 0:02:09.000
<v Speaker 1>call this the bow Guard your bow guarding the podcast. Okay,

0:02:09.200 --> 0:02:12.520
<v Speaker 1>bow guard, there we go ahead, boguards kick this thing off.

0:02:12.560 --> 0:02:16.480
<v Speaker 1>First of all, Um, title is from Seattle. John. He says,

0:02:16.520 --> 0:02:19.480
<v Speaker 1>shock jock Radio gave it a try, really hard to

0:02:19.520 --> 0:02:22.480
<v Speaker 1>listen to him talking about you. Typical shock jock radio.

0:02:23.520 --> 0:02:25.880
<v Speaker 1>UM can't have its moments. But this should not be

0:02:25.960 --> 0:02:28.600
<v Speaker 1>a national media show but a local one. This guy's

0:02:28.600 --> 0:02:32.440
<v Speaker 1>a l a hawk, especially his whole crew annoying. That's

0:02:32.480 --> 0:02:38.239
<v Speaker 1>from MP dream thirty four. Um, I've been listening to

0:02:38.320 --> 0:02:40.800
<v Speaker 1>BED for almost two years. I love the radio show

0:02:40.919 --> 0:02:46.200
<v Speaker 1>podcast but this fifth our podcast is the best. That

0:02:46.320 --> 0:02:53.320
<v Speaker 1>is from Vague or Vegan, Mary Mallarin, Gascon or Radio Goal.

0:02:53.440 --> 0:02:56.400
<v Speaker 1>They must listen to. It's j W I H t

0:02:56.760 --> 0:03:01.119
<v Speaker 1>X gave the five stars Burner account. Steve from Seattle

0:03:01.240 --> 0:03:03.480
<v Speaker 1>says right in this review to let the corner office

0:03:03.520 --> 0:03:05.880
<v Speaker 1>people know I'm listening to the fifth Hour because five

0:03:05.960 --> 0:03:08.359
<v Speaker 1>days a week is not enough. It's a good one.

0:03:09.120 --> 0:03:13.160
<v Speaker 1>Um Bill R R l It says, fantastic Gascon is awesome.

0:03:13.280 --> 0:03:17.200
<v Speaker 1>Love this podcast, Ben at his best. Um, how about

0:03:17.240 --> 0:03:21.120
<v Speaker 1>this from B nine O two one ten, A sports

0:03:21.160 --> 0:03:24.840
<v Speaker 1>supplement for your ears when sports are shut down? Was

0:03:24.840 --> 0:03:27.480
<v Speaker 1>a word about filling the void. Not only has been

0:03:27.639 --> 0:03:31.200
<v Speaker 1>and his company filled the void, but their content, whether

0:03:31.360 --> 0:03:35.480
<v Speaker 1>game shows, cooking, social commentary, and just down to earth

0:03:35.520 --> 0:03:38.160
<v Speaker 1>people talking about sports in life now have created a

0:03:38.200 --> 0:03:42.160
<v Speaker 1>listener who is not even missing sports. I'm still amazed

0:03:42.160 --> 0:03:44.600
<v Speaker 1>at how this show could be filled with entertaining content

0:03:44.960 --> 0:03:48.880
<v Speaker 1>while no sports are played. They're feeling these are all old.

0:03:49.080 --> 0:03:50.840
<v Speaker 1>I mean, these are all you going way back in

0:03:50.880 --> 0:03:53.120
<v Speaker 1>the hot, tough times. All right, these are sand bags.

0:03:53.120 --> 0:03:55.200
<v Speaker 1>I gotta acknowledge him. Well, well, no, I mean this

0:03:55.280 --> 0:03:57.680
<v Speaker 1>is a lie bio mission because you left out. Here's

0:03:57.720 --> 0:04:00.920
<v Speaker 1>one from John. How about with these? Ben Maller is

0:04:00.960 --> 0:04:04.560
<v Speaker 1>the voice of the people. Ben Maller is the voice

0:04:04.640 --> 0:04:07.560
<v Speaker 1>of the people. That is a fresh take, as in

0:04:07.720 --> 0:04:10.000
<v Speaker 1>John the Jailer as a few days ago, as I

0:04:10.040 --> 0:04:13.080
<v Speaker 1>continue it says the Fifth Hour is like finding a

0:04:13.120 --> 0:04:15.880
<v Speaker 1>twenty dollar bill on the sidewalk. Just great luck that

0:04:15.920 --> 0:04:18.279
<v Speaker 1>we get more hours of it. Keep it up, fellas

0:04:19.040 --> 0:04:23.159
<v Speaker 1>um from Rich and Kim. Great chemistry. Ben and Dave

0:04:23.240 --> 0:04:25.080
<v Speaker 1>have a great chemistry and seem to really enjoy each

0:04:25.120 --> 0:04:28.560
<v Speaker 1>other while performing on the podcast. Both very knowledgeable and

0:04:28.600 --> 0:04:32.359
<v Speaker 1>the topics are timely. The conversations are entertaining. Their interviews

0:04:32.360 --> 0:04:35.840
<v Speaker 1>are always outstanding as well, obviously me asking the good

0:04:35.920 --> 0:04:41.240
<v Speaker 1>questions you're asking? Is this guy drug? What a terrible show?

0:04:41.279 --> 0:04:44.479
<v Speaker 1>The segments are awful. What an embarrassment for Fox? As

0:04:44.480 --> 0:04:53.159
<v Speaker 1>in Dallas? More monologues, less games from Ragmanlogue Uh never

0:04:53.240 --> 0:04:55.440
<v Speaker 1>missed podcasts on the Radio Show or The Fifth Hour?

0:04:55.520 --> 0:04:58.280
<v Speaker 1>Both are fun. Listen to seventy years. Listen to read

0:04:58.360 --> 0:05:00.680
<v Speaker 1>Everyone I Got. This is not a mailback, This is

0:05:00.720 --> 0:05:03.960
<v Speaker 1>just reading reviews. This is terrible. How about some brevity?

0:05:04.160 --> 0:05:06.680
<v Speaker 1>He makes it a little bit of brevity so long winded.

0:05:06.760 --> 0:05:09.680
<v Speaker 1>He says, p one from Vermont, that's a good one.

0:05:10.480 --> 0:05:15.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm just please, economy of language. Wait a minute, I

0:05:15.080 --> 0:05:19.240
<v Speaker 1>get to please. They wrote this out for us to

0:05:19.279 --> 0:05:21.080
<v Speaker 1>consume it and to read it. But but they're not

0:05:21.080 --> 0:05:24.120
<v Speaker 1>on a mailbag. This is not but you're you're You're afraid,

0:05:24.240 --> 0:05:27.240
<v Speaker 1>you're you are afraid of the questions that are gonna

0:05:27.240 --> 0:05:29.760
<v Speaker 1>be asked. Wait, why why can we please get to

0:05:29.800 --> 0:05:33.039
<v Speaker 1>the mailbag? This is not the mailbag. This is you

0:05:33.240 --> 0:05:37.479
<v Speaker 1>cherry picking random reviews to make you look good and

0:05:37.600 --> 0:05:40.080
<v Speaker 1>leaving out the ones that say how terrible you are.

0:05:40.160 --> 0:05:43.360
<v Speaker 1>Spare you. So I'm gonna I'm gonna give you a

0:05:43.400 --> 0:05:46.040
<v Speaker 1>little bit of insight into what these questions will be.

0:05:46.120 --> 0:05:49.800
<v Speaker 1>It'll be from Pierre washing your balls, Pierre trying to

0:05:49.839 --> 0:05:53.880
<v Speaker 1>fucking scrub your nuts, from Pierre trying to eat your ass,

0:05:54.000 --> 0:05:59.159
<v Speaker 1>and then from Pierre trying to jealous about water jealous.

0:05:59.200 --> 0:06:01.120
<v Speaker 1>Just well, how about we find out the questions? How

0:06:01.160 --> 0:06:04.880
<v Speaker 1>about that? How about wet we find the damn questions out? All? Right?

0:06:04.880 --> 0:06:08.520
<v Speaker 1>Here we go, uh Andy in Augusta, Maine rights and

0:06:08.560 --> 0:06:12.039
<v Speaker 1>he says, which were you what were your go to

0:06:12.240 --> 0:06:15.040
<v Speaker 1>mall stores? When you were in high school, he says,

0:06:15.080 --> 0:06:18.839
<v Speaker 1>he loves the show. Well, Andy, I you're back in

0:06:18.839 --> 0:06:21.839
<v Speaker 1>those days. You didn't have the the videos. I would

0:06:21.839 --> 0:06:24.240
<v Speaker 1>go to the arcade, uh and they had the hot

0:06:24.240 --> 0:06:26.520
<v Speaker 1>dog on a stick, they had the the orange Julius.

0:06:26.640 --> 0:06:28.640
<v Speaker 1>You'd go that did a lot of shopping at the

0:06:28.680 --> 0:06:31.600
<v Speaker 1>mall was I'm trying to think what stores? What was

0:06:31.680 --> 0:06:34.719
<v Speaker 1>the the storre still around where they had like the

0:06:34.800 --> 0:06:37.599
<v Speaker 1>weird products, the weird electrical devices that were kind of

0:06:38.240 --> 0:06:39.960
<v Speaker 1>you know, you go to the mall. What what's the

0:06:40.080 --> 0:06:42.760
<v Speaker 1>name of yah? Drawing a blank here? What city did

0:06:42.760 --> 0:06:45.200
<v Speaker 1>you go into? What? What mall? I grew up in

0:06:45.200 --> 0:06:50.800
<v Speaker 1>Orange County, so South Coast Plaza, the Hills down south.

0:06:50.880 --> 0:06:54.400
<v Speaker 1>There was a mall there, Mission Viejo, places like that.

0:06:54.480 --> 0:06:58.240
<v Speaker 1>But what's the name of that store? Though they got

0:06:58.279 --> 0:07:00.960
<v Speaker 1>the weird stuff, it's a chain, national chain. I don't

0:07:01.000 --> 0:07:02.400
<v Speaker 1>want to say it was like high tech, but I

0:07:02.440 --> 0:07:07.920
<v Speaker 1>forget I know. Yeah, all right, uh so you nobody here,

0:07:07.960 --> 0:07:09.920
<v Speaker 1>what I care about your your stores? I don't think

0:07:10.080 --> 0:07:13.080
<v Speaker 1>you know you did the same probably yeah, arcades and yeah,

0:07:13.120 --> 0:07:16.160
<v Speaker 1>all right? What what happened to Kentucky? J and K

0:07:16.520 --> 0:07:19.720
<v Speaker 1>Mike writes, Uh, I don't know. I hope they're okay.

0:07:19.800 --> 0:07:21.640
<v Speaker 1>We we love Kentucky J and K. They have not

0:07:21.720 --> 0:07:24.080
<v Speaker 1>sent a question in a fair amount of time. I

0:07:24.080 --> 0:07:27.920
<v Speaker 1>hope everything's all right with them. Very kind, beautiful little

0:07:27.960 --> 0:07:30.520
<v Speaker 1>daughter there. What's that the bourbon? Remember during Oh? Yeah

0:07:30.560 --> 0:07:32.640
<v Speaker 1>the bourbon? Yeah he does that. But I I have

0:07:32.720 --> 0:07:35.760
<v Speaker 1>the Hilltoppers hat in my rotation compliments of Kentucky J

0:07:35.920 --> 0:07:37.360
<v Speaker 1>and K, and we thanked them for that. But I

0:07:37.600 --> 0:07:40.520
<v Speaker 1>don't know what happened to them. I maybe they're just

0:07:40.880 --> 0:07:44.239
<v Speaker 1>listening and not contributing, or maybe they're just not listening.

0:07:44.320 --> 0:07:46.640
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. Maybe we said Gascon likely said something

0:07:46.640 --> 0:07:49.600
<v Speaker 1>that annoyed them and then they stopped listening. That's my theory.

0:07:50.160 --> 0:07:54.000
<v Speaker 1>Carlos in Houston writes in now why does the gascon?

0:07:54.160 --> 0:07:56.440
<v Speaker 1>Why do the guests got critics? Why does he criticize

0:07:56.440 --> 0:08:00.960
<v Speaker 1>your work ethic? Why does guests got criticize your work at? Uh?

0:08:01.000 --> 0:08:03.840
<v Speaker 1>And he hates to actually show up and do the show.

0:08:04.360 --> 0:08:08.440
<v Speaker 1>He can't even record a fucking podcast. Doesn't he claim

0:08:08.560 --> 0:08:11.920
<v Speaker 1>that the podcast is his baby, so he needs to

0:08:11.920 --> 0:08:16.880
<v Speaker 1>show up every week? Yeah, I guess, Scott, and you

0:08:17.000 --> 0:08:20.800
<v Speaker 1>respond to sponsor Carlos and Bang Bang Houston. Yeah, this

0:08:20.920 --> 0:08:24.440
<v Speaker 1>is this is not my baby. It's uh, this thing

0:08:24.480 --> 0:08:29.640
<v Speaker 1>would be uh, actually, I'll leave that colorful comment to myself.

0:08:29.840 --> 0:08:33.920
<v Speaker 1>But now it's not my baby. Interesting, but you would

0:08:33.960 --> 0:08:37.960
<v Speaker 1>admit you have said things like that, and you like

0:08:38.120 --> 0:08:40.120
<v Speaker 1>to claim you have some work ethic, but you don't

0:08:40.160 --> 0:08:42.240
<v Speaker 1>usually show up to the body. My work ethic has

0:08:42.320 --> 0:08:46.080
<v Speaker 1>never been questioned, never questioned every week on this show.

0:08:46.280 --> 0:08:51.880
<v Speaker 1>But those are idiots that are questioning it. You included, uh, Carlos,

0:08:52.240 --> 0:08:55.400
<v Speaker 1>look in the mirror, Buddy. Carlos says, we all know

0:08:55.520 --> 0:08:57.960
<v Speaker 1>you hate retired numbers, Ben, but are you a fan

0:08:58.000 --> 0:09:00.960
<v Speaker 1>of baseball retiring number forty two? Now? I wouldn't retire

0:09:00.960 --> 0:09:03.320
<v Speaker 1>any numbers. I I would if you want to put

0:09:03.720 --> 0:09:05.480
<v Speaker 1>the Ring of honor. I think everyone should do the

0:09:05.559 --> 0:09:08.200
<v Speaker 1>Ring of Honor, and you're gonna have Jackie Robinson and

0:09:08.240 --> 0:09:11.360
<v Speaker 1>everyone's Ring of Honor. But I wouldn't retire numbers across

0:09:11.400 --> 0:09:14.599
<v Speaker 1>the board. That's just not not my thing. Is I

0:09:14.640 --> 0:09:16.560
<v Speaker 1>think it's lame. I think it's dumb. I think it's

0:09:17.160 --> 0:09:20.520
<v Speaker 1>it's It started out as a nice thing. It used

0:09:20.559 --> 0:09:22.920
<v Speaker 1>to be done when people would die, athletes would die,

0:09:22.920 --> 0:09:25.200
<v Speaker 1>while they were playing, you know, during their careers. Now

0:09:25.240 --> 0:09:29.360
<v Speaker 1>it's just gotten absurd, so stupid. Berry from the Music

0:09:29.480 --> 0:09:33.200
<v Speaker 1>City says yo Yo mob Benny twenty two minutes past

0:09:33.280 --> 0:09:36.480
<v Speaker 1>the hour as I write this, them says, I'm not

0:09:36.520 --> 0:09:38.920
<v Speaker 1>sure how anyone can dislike Marcel's calls. Well, plenty of

0:09:38.920 --> 0:09:41.360
<v Speaker 1>people do. Berry. I should show you some of the

0:09:41.400 --> 0:09:43.280
<v Speaker 1>email like it. Why do you put that guy on?

0:09:43.480 --> 0:09:46.720
<v Speaker 1>He's a moron? Blah blah blah. All right, uh, he says.

0:09:46.720 --> 0:09:51.839
<v Speaker 1>The NBA released a statement on the shopping case there

0:09:51.880 --> 0:09:55.040
<v Speaker 1>in Minnesota and apparently, uh the First Take show on

0:09:55.280 --> 0:09:58.400
<v Speaker 1>ESPN spent the entire show on the topic. When do

0:09:58.480 --> 0:10:02.079
<v Speaker 1>you think this in fusion of politics and sports will

0:10:02.080 --> 0:10:05.000
<v Speaker 1>be out of sports? And please don't say never, you won't.

0:10:05.880 --> 0:10:09.800
<v Speaker 1>Well at ESPN, I don't see that changing. I think

0:10:09.840 --> 0:10:12.600
<v Speaker 1>that's just their business model there. The you know, they're

0:10:12.640 --> 0:10:15.320
<v Speaker 1>trying to get democratic fans to watch and they don't

0:10:15.320 --> 0:10:17.560
<v Speaker 1>really care about Republican fans. I think that's pretty obvious.

0:10:17.760 --> 0:10:19.880
<v Speaker 1>I don't think based on their position politically, I don't

0:10:19.880 --> 0:10:23.680
<v Speaker 1>think they'll change it. Fox e Tho though, uh no,

0:10:24.200 --> 0:10:27.120
<v Speaker 1>you know it could. They could lessen it, but it's

0:10:27.160 --> 0:10:29.000
<v Speaker 1>hard as we always say, we use the line to

0:10:29.000 --> 0:10:31.040
<v Speaker 1>put the toothpaste back in the tube, or to unpeel,

0:10:31.200 --> 0:10:34.840
<v Speaker 1>to unpeel the orange and then put the orange back together.

0:10:34.960 --> 0:10:36.959
<v Speaker 1>The one they can't unpeel the orange is once you

0:10:37.080 --> 0:10:39.160
<v Speaker 1>peel that, that's it. Now you can try to put

0:10:39.160 --> 0:10:40.920
<v Speaker 1>it back together, but it's not gonna the same. The

0:10:40.920 --> 0:10:43.520
<v Speaker 1>only unfortunate thing is you get guys that get out

0:10:43.520 --> 0:10:46.520
<v Speaker 1>in front of certain topics like this, and then all

0:10:46.559 --> 0:10:49.000
<v Speaker 1>of a sudden, if the roles or get reversed or

0:10:49.080 --> 0:10:52.600
<v Speaker 1>something goes against their narrative, they're nowhere to be fucking

0:10:52.640 --> 0:11:00.000
<v Speaker 1>Seen's it's you know, run and hide and don't don't respond. Yeah,

0:11:00.160 --> 0:11:02.839
<v Speaker 1>that's Lebron, right, that's what Ron does. He just move on.

0:11:02.920 --> 0:11:05.960
<v Speaker 1>And the greatest example of that was the story with

0:11:06.040 --> 0:11:08.520
<v Speaker 1>the tweet the Raiders sent out. He had all this

0:11:08.679 --> 0:11:12.880
<v Speaker 1>virtue signaling and all these oh I'm offended, Oh my god,

0:11:13.000 --> 0:11:16.400
<v Speaker 1>I can't believe the Raiders tweeted that out. And to

0:11:16.559 --> 0:11:19.160
<v Speaker 1>Mark Davis's credit, he didn't bow down to the mob

0:11:19.440 --> 0:11:23.080
<v Speaker 1>of lunatics cyber thugs. He didn't bow down to him.

0:11:23.640 --> 0:11:27.920
<v Speaker 1>All the wokesters woke mcwoke and uh, it was really funny.

0:11:28.000 --> 0:11:31.200
<v Speaker 1>Some hack columnists. Somebody sent the story on NAHU. Some

0:11:31.320 --> 0:11:35.120
<v Speaker 1>hack columnists wrote a story condemning the Raiders for what

0:11:35.160 --> 0:11:40.240
<v Speaker 1>they had done, and Uh. The next day, George Floyd's

0:11:40.240 --> 0:11:45.120
<v Speaker 1>brother comes out and says, no problem with the Raiders. Oh,

0:11:45.240 --> 0:11:47.800
<v Speaker 1>I loved it. It was so good. He just buried.

0:11:48.000 --> 0:11:51.560
<v Speaker 1>George Floyd's brother buried all these these hacks in the

0:11:51.600 --> 0:11:57.160
<v Speaker 1>media was outstanding. Out body blow, body blow, body blow.

0:11:57.880 --> 0:12:00.680
<v Speaker 1>All right, Ozzy Momentum rights and he said, so, I

0:12:00.720 --> 0:12:02.760
<v Speaker 1>want to know what sport you are a hund percent

0:12:02.800 --> 0:12:06.760
<v Speaker 1>sure you could beat the other in. For example, Guesscon

0:12:07.559 --> 0:12:11.560
<v Speaker 1>could be fairly confident of beating being better than Ben

0:12:11.679 --> 0:12:16.280
<v Speaker 1>at baseball given that disgraceful pitch Ben throughout at Bakersfield.

0:12:16.600 --> 0:12:20.640
<v Speaker 1>And Ben could be confident that he could beat Gascon

0:12:20.720 --> 0:12:24.040
<v Speaker 1>at tennis given Gascon's shoulder being held together by duct

0:12:24.120 --> 0:12:27.959
<v Speaker 1>tape and his petulance for whining. Yeah, well, first of all,

0:12:27.960 --> 0:12:30.839
<v Speaker 1>you're wrong, Ozzy Momentum about that first pitch. I was

0:12:30.880 --> 0:12:33.600
<v Speaker 1>ahead of my time. In fact, that first pitch, that

0:12:33.760 --> 0:12:39.160
<v Speaker 1>lollipop breaking ball, Uh, was outstanding, and it was stolen

0:12:39.160 --> 0:12:44.600
<v Speaker 1>by a Minnesota twin. All right, we all saw in Anaheim.

0:12:45.040 --> 0:12:47.880
<v Speaker 1>While back there Angels and Twins blowout game the great

0:12:47.880 --> 0:12:51.800
<v Speaker 1>Asta Dio with a fat guy on the mound, and

0:12:51.800 --> 0:12:54.959
<v Speaker 1>he threw the Mallard pitch, the Mallard special. But let's

0:12:55.080 --> 0:12:57.960
<v Speaker 1>let's be our guesscon he's a quitter. He he's not

0:12:58.040 --> 0:13:00.440
<v Speaker 1>a competitie, doesn't have the fighting spirit. I would beat

0:13:00.480 --> 0:13:04.240
<v Speaker 1>him at anything. I would dominate him at any moneyball.

0:13:04.280 --> 0:13:06.559
<v Speaker 1>Mallard from the outside, I'd kill you one on one

0:13:06.600 --> 0:13:08.880
<v Speaker 1>game of a game of ben I would beat you

0:13:08.880 --> 0:13:11.360
<v Speaker 1>at that. You wouldn't be able to win that. You

0:13:11.720 --> 0:13:15.599
<v Speaker 1>have the chances bowling, and no, that's of course I

0:13:15.600 --> 0:13:19.600
<v Speaker 1>would win it bowling. But football dominate right throw the

0:13:19.600 --> 0:13:23.400
<v Speaker 1>ball further than you baseball. I'm a football player. I'm

0:13:23.400 --> 0:13:27.080
<v Speaker 1>a crafty right hander. I'm a crafty right hander. Uh

0:13:27.160 --> 0:13:30.160
<v Speaker 1>do very well at that. Not hockey. You can't hockey.

0:13:30.240 --> 0:13:32.640
<v Speaker 1>I would be wonderful. I've been on the ice with

0:13:32.720 --> 0:13:35.840
<v Speaker 1>the Stanley Cup twice in my life. I have been there,

0:13:36.320 --> 0:13:40.720
<v Speaker 1>so that's absolutely something. I've spent time with Lord Stanley Cup,

0:13:41.000 --> 0:13:44.240
<v Speaker 1>so that thing. But I've been there right when they

0:13:44.400 --> 0:13:46.839
<v Speaker 1>hoisted the cup right there, and you have no agility,

0:13:46.920 --> 0:13:50.800
<v Speaker 1>no balance, no coordination, Your sites fucked up. Your hearing

0:13:50.880 --> 0:13:53.199
<v Speaker 1>is not good to you. My sites? Fine, man, that's good.

0:13:53.800 --> 0:13:58.400
<v Speaker 1>Called glasses. None of these things called glasses. Maybe maybe bowling,

0:13:58.480 --> 0:14:02.280
<v Speaker 1>maybe ping pong, but boxing, oh god, you'd have no shot.

0:14:03.320 --> 0:14:05.840
<v Speaker 1>You would have no chance in boxing. Oh my god,

0:14:05.880 --> 0:14:10.000
<v Speaker 1>it would be a blood bath. Dave and Mill Valley, California,

0:14:10.120 --> 0:14:12.240
<v Speaker 1>right there, just a little bit, just a wee bit,

0:14:12.360 --> 0:14:15.920
<v Speaker 1>north of San Francisco, says what what what? What are you?

0:14:15.920 --> 0:14:18.960
<v Speaker 1>What are you laughing? Because San Francisco is a cesspool?

0:14:19.000 --> 0:14:22.760
<v Speaker 1>Now he lives in Mill Valley, north, this in Marin County.

0:14:22.840 --> 0:14:25.400
<v Speaker 1>I think, right, yeah, right, all right, Hey bet you

0:14:25.560 --> 0:14:29.240
<v Speaker 1>often use the verbs hoodwink, the bamboos, al than hornswaggled.

0:14:29.680 --> 0:14:31.880
<v Speaker 1>They are three of my all time favorite words. Please

0:14:31.960 --> 0:14:36.480
<v Speaker 1>list them in order of your preference. Yeah, and he says,

0:14:36.480 --> 0:14:39.240
<v Speaker 1>I'd also like to know what Big Mike thinks, or

0:14:39.360 --> 0:14:41.760
<v Speaker 1>you could ask gas Can on the off chance he

0:14:41.800 --> 0:14:44.600
<v Speaker 1>actually shows up. Instead, Well, it's actually big mix in

0:14:44.600 --> 0:14:49.000
<v Speaker 1>this week. Uh No, I love horn swoggled. That's my favorite.

0:14:50.240 --> 0:14:52.560
<v Speaker 1>I don't use it enough. I think it's a fun word.

0:14:52.600 --> 0:14:57.160
<v Speaker 1>It's a great word. It's an underused word. Hornswoggled. Then

0:14:57.200 --> 0:15:04.320
<v Speaker 1>it's a toss up a slightly mean two bamboozled, and

0:15:04.360 --> 0:15:09.280
<v Speaker 1>then hoodwinked would be third. But clearly the leader in

0:15:09.320 --> 0:15:14.920
<v Speaker 1>the clubhouse is horns walk. Yeah, it's good, it's solid word. Uh,

0:15:15.000 --> 0:15:19.880
<v Speaker 1>let's see here. David from simple Sonville, South Carolina says,

0:15:20.040 --> 0:15:24.800
<v Speaker 1>are there any hats you would be uncomfortable having? San

0:15:24.840 --> 0:15:33.520
<v Speaker 1>Francisco Giants had the stros about the Podres, and David says,

0:15:33.520 --> 0:15:36.840
<v Speaker 1>as the hat gifter, I need to know thanks for

0:15:36.880 --> 0:15:40.000
<v Speaker 1>all the shows. Well, thank you, David. No, I wouldn't

0:15:40.040 --> 0:15:43.520
<v Speaker 1>be against the Padres thing, but they're blood rival with Dodgers.

0:15:43.560 --> 0:15:45.400
<v Speaker 1>It would be inappropriate to wear Padre had But I

0:15:45.400 --> 0:15:46.920
<v Speaker 1>worked in San Diego and I used to go to

0:15:46.960 --> 0:15:48.680
<v Speaker 1>Podre games when I worked there, and I loved it.

0:15:48.720 --> 0:15:51.080
<v Speaker 1>Had great members. Are going to Potre games when there

0:15:51.120 --> 0:15:53.120
<v Speaker 1>was no one there and they have fire sale And

0:15:53.400 --> 0:15:56.400
<v Speaker 1>it was Tony Gwynn in the the eight students that

0:15:56.440 --> 0:15:58.480
<v Speaker 1>were out there for the Padres and but but I

0:15:58.520 --> 0:16:02.000
<v Speaker 1>had fun members of that. Uh. But no, I wouldn't

0:16:02.000 --> 0:16:05.040
<v Speaker 1>wear a Giant's hat. You know, I'm really shifted. We

0:16:05.040 --> 0:16:06.400
<v Speaker 1>talked about this a couple of weeks ago, but I've

0:16:06.400 --> 0:16:10.200
<v Speaker 1>shifted more to minor league hats that in college. I

0:16:10.240 --> 0:16:13.760
<v Speaker 1>like college hats. I like obscure college hats, minor league hats.

0:16:14.920 --> 0:16:18.080
<v Speaker 1>That's that's really what I'm gravitating too. In any hat

0:16:18.160 --> 0:16:20.280
<v Speaker 1>with a be on it, any hat with a be

0:16:20.480 --> 0:16:23.200
<v Speaker 1>on it, or an m I think there's a hat

0:16:23.320 --> 0:16:27.040
<v Speaker 1>at the studio, Is that right? I think so? Yeah.

0:16:28.560 --> 0:16:30.760
<v Speaker 1>And I gotta come in there. I gotta get get

0:16:30.800 --> 0:16:33.960
<v Speaker 1>in there. Maybe i'll swing by. Maybe I will. Have

0:16:34.040 --> 0:16:35.560
<v Speaker 1>you opened that? I mean, you open all my mail.

0:16:35.560 --> 0:16:37.360
<v Speaker 1>From what I understand, I could open it. I'll take

0:16:37.360 --> 0:16:38.920
<v Speaker 1>a look at it. I wonder if it fits me.

0:16:39.000 --> 0:16:42.000
<v Speaker 1>I don't open you No, No, don't don't open my mail.

0:16:42.040 --> 0:16:45.240
<v Speaker 1>You've already opened enough in my mail. John the jailer

0:16:45.400 --> 0:16:49.560
<v Speaker 1>from alan Town, Pennsylvania, rights scene. He says, been given

0:16:49.600 --> 0:16:54.400
<v Speaker 1>your vast radio game show experience. Why were you not

0:16:54.640 --> 0:16:59.160
<v Speaker 1>considered to be the next host of Jeopardy? Just imagine

0:16:59.640 --> 0:17:04.640
<v Speaker 1>he's easy World where the militia is on Jeopardy. You'd

0:17:04.640 --> 0:17:08.240
<v Speaker 1>have beer drinking Brian half pint reading video answers, Oh,

0:17:08.280 --> 0:17:13.879
<v Speaker 1>that'd be great. A Mallard militia category. I drove a

0:17:13.960 --> 0:17:18.520
<v Speaker 1>bus around San Francisco, walked on hold to a sports

0:17:18.560 --> 0:17:22.160
<v Speaker 1>talk radio show. Who am I? You know I could

0:17:22.160 --> 0:17:26.159
<v Speaker 1>do that? I got? What was it? Oh? You know,

0:17:26.240 --> 0:17:29.399
<v Speaker 1>here's a good one. I won a radio game show

0:17:29.520 --> 0:17:33.000
<v Speaker 1>while sleeping. I also got kicked out of my house

0:17:33.119 --> 0:17:36.480
<v Speaker 1>for shouting on the same radio show. Who am I

0:17:37.600 --> 0:17:41.320
<v Speaker 1>be a good one? Right? Good? I called up a

0:17:41.520 --> 0:17:46.200
<v Speaker 1>radio show the night the astro scandal started and said

0:17:46.240 --> 0:17:51.440
<v Speaker 1>it was all fake and photoshopped. Who am I? Wonder

0:17:51.480 --> 0:17:54.800
<v Speaker 1>who that could be? Wonder who that one could be?

0:17:56.480 --> 0:18:00.080
<v Speaker 1>I once showed up to a B LM rally and

0:18:00.160 --> 0:18:06.359
<v Speaker 1>shouted the Ben Mallard show at that rally, Who am I?

0:18:07.400 --> 0:18:10.760
<v Speaker 1>That's one of the greats? Ed from Spokane? Oh God,

0:18:10.920 --> 0:18:13.560
<v Speaker 1>what a character? Ed and Christina I have not hurt

0:18:13.600 --> 0:18:15.040
<v Speaker 1>and I called the show this week. I did not

0:18:15.080 --> 0:18:17.320
<v Speaker 1>hear from them this week. I don't think, unless unless

0:18:17.400 --> 0:18:20.960
<v Speaker 1>maybe I missed it. All right, who else do we

0:18:21.040 --> 0:18:23.320
<v Speaker 1>have here? Let's see page But I should be a

0:18:23.400 --> 0:18:25.960
<v Speaker 1>Jeopardy host, although I got people from Jeopardy sent me

0:18:25.960 --> 0:18:29.520
<v Speaker 1>a cease and assists, so I don't think they like me. Hello,

0:18:29.600 --> 0:18:32.959
<v Speaker 1>Lord Ben Jose Right soon, he says, I'm originally from

0:18:33.000 --> 0:18:38.879
<v Speaker 1>northern California. I grew up a Giants fan watching Will Clark,

0:18:39.040 --> 0:18:42.600
<v Speaker 1>Matt Williams, Kevin Mitchell, Willy Wagee. He says I moved

0:18:42.600 --> 0:18:46.600
<v Speaker 1>to Massachusetts. Hey, you didn't mention. No, I don't like

0:18:46.680 --> 0:18:49.439
<v Speaker 1>the Giants, but my favorite giant of all time. You

0:18:49.480 --> 0:18:54.240
<v Speaker 1>know who it is? Guesscan favorite giant of all time?

0:18:54.359 --> 0:18:57.800
<v Speaker 1>I was gonna say Matt Williams or jeff Kenn. Matt Williams,

0:18:57.960 --> 0:18:59.960
<v Speaker 1>Doe she I gotta argument with him in the locker.

0:19:00.000 --> 0:19:04.879
<v Speaker 1>The one is Jeffrey Leonard, the Hackman. Jeffrey Leonard, my

0:19:04.880 --> 0:19:06.600
<v Speaker 1>all time favorite. Johannt He gave me a baseball when

0:19:06.600 --> 0:19:08.080
<v Speaker 1>I was a kid. He was playing for the Brewers

0:19:08.119 --> 0:19:11.639
<v Speaker 1>at the time. But I still still have fond memories

0:19:11.720 --> 0:19:14.280
<v Speaker 1>of that was one of the great moments of my childhood.

0:19:14.440 --> 0:19:18.600
<v Speaker 1>I during a game foul ball in the right field

0:19:18.640 --> 0:19:20.480
<v Speaker 1>corner of the Big A had seats right near the

0:19:20.480 --> 0:19:23.840
<v Speaker 1>foul poll. I ran over, fat kid, and Jeffrey Leonard

0:19:23.880 --> 0:19:26.119
<v Speaker 1>came over, scooped the ball up and tossed it and

0:19:26.160 --> 0:19:28.960
<v Speaker 1>I caught it, and I was outstanding. I didn't I

0:19:28.960 --> 0:19:30.879
<v Speaker 1>was worried it's gonna drop it. Didn't drop it. I

0:19:30.920 --> 0:19:33.679
<v Speaker 1>liked Kevin Mitchell back in the day, I made one

0:19:33.680 --> 0:19:35.960
<v Speaker 1>of the great catches in baseball history, one handed, bare

0:19:36.080 --> 0:19:40.040
<v Speaker 1>handed catch Bush Stadium in St. Louis. I don't like

0:19:40.080 --> 0:19:43.239
<v Speaker 1>Will Clark because he's he was a dick and he

0:19:43.240 --> 0:19:46.000
<v Speaker 1>he killed me when he was at the Atlanta No.

0:19:46.160 --> 0:19:48.840
<v Speaker 1>He was with the Cardinals against the Atlanta Breaks. I

0:19:48.600 --> 0:19:51.320
<v Speaker 1>had a huge bet on the break for that, he says.

0:19:51.320 --> 0:19:54.000
<v Speaker 1>As a kid, baseball was my number one football as

0:19:54.080 --> 0:19:57.639
<v Speaker 1>as a as a kid, football was one. Uh and

0:19:57.880 --> 0:20:01.480
<v Speaker 1>and two Basketball three? I baseball was when he said, uh,

0:20:01.600 --> 0:20:04.880
<v Speaker 1>football too? In Basketball three he wrote that weird. Uh,

0:20:04.880 --> 0:20:06.920
<v Speaker 1>he says, Now football is number one. I haven't watched

0:20:06.960 --> 0:20:10.360
<v Speaker 1>baseball game in three years. Analytics have ruined it for me.

0:20:10.560 --> 0:20:13.920
<v Speaker 1>The same with basketball. Everything is a foul, no defense,

0:20:13.960 --> 0:20:16.760
<v Speaker 1>and all the players are selfish, soft like gag on

0:20:17.720 --> 0:20:20.640
<v Speaker 1>you a bad example for kids. That's a good point, Jose.

0:20:21.359 --> 0:20:25.280
<v Speaker 1>Do you think you'll ever get to that point? PS

0:20:25.359 --> 0:20:28.199
<v Speaker 1>bring back Brian Finlay? Why that you ruined me with

0:20:28.240 --> 0:20:31.600
<v Speaker 1>that last line? Uh? Do I do? I Will I

0:20:31.640 --> 0:20:32.960
<v Speaker 1>ever get to the point where I'll be the bitter,

0:20:33.040 --> 0:20:37.119
<v Speaker 1>jaded old guy. Uh? I'd like to think that I

0:20:37.200 --> 0:20:41.480
<v Speaker 1>love sports. It's changed the way I watch sports has

0:20:41.600 --> 0:20:46.760
<v Speaker 1>changed with the politics policizing of sports. But no, I

0:20:47.000 --> 0:20:51.240
<v Speaker 1>not on think it's gonna you know, I'm gonna completely stop.

0:20:52.240 --> 0:20:55.359
<v Speaker 1>I'd like to think not, but you never know what

0:20:55.480 --> 0:20:58.840
<v Speaker 1>the you know what the what the future hold holds.

0:20:58.840 --> 0:21:00.399
<v Speaker 1>And and I hear from guys all the time, and

0:21:00.440 --> 0:21:03.320
<v Speaker 1>I'm not watching sports because of politics, and I I

0:21:03.359 --> 0:21:05.000
<v Speaker 1>don't agree with the politics of a lot of these

0:21:05.040 --> 0:21:07.800
<v Speaker 1>idiots in sports, but I still think it's stupid to

0:21:07.880 --> 0:21:11.240
<v Speaker 1>not watch. I mean, just because somebody has a different viewpoint.

0:21:11.640 --> 0:21:14.000
<v Speaker 1>I just don't like being preached to. I don't care

0:21:14.280 --> 0:21:17.040
<v Speaker 1>le Bron James is a lunatic politically, that's he can

0:21:17.040 --> 0:21:19.960
<v Speaker 1>do whatever he wants. But if you're preaching from the

0:21:20.000 --> 0:21:23.199
<v Speaker 1>bully pulpit, that is to me, that's I don't I

0:21:23.200 --> 0:21:26.000
<v Speaker 1>don't watch sports for that. So but you know, everyone

0:21:26.000 --> 0:21:29.320
<v Speaker 1>has the right to have their own viewpoint. I don't

0:21:29.320 --> 0:21:33.200
<v Speaker 1>don't care about that right to be wrong. Um, but

0:21:33.280 --> 0:21:35.960
<v Speaker 1>you don't like if if I worked for somebody that

0:21:36.000 --> 0:21:37.879
<v Speaker 1>I didn't agree with him, I gonna quit my job.

0:21:38.760 --> 0:21:43.440
<v Speaker 1>I don't think that's that's how that would go anyway.

0:21:43.560 --> 0:21:45.439
<v Speaker 1>In any response to Jose is a big fan of

0:21:45.480 --> 0:21:47.960
<v Speaker 1>your work, he says soft, like a gag on. I

0:21:47.960 --> 0:21:52.200
<v Speaker 1>don't know what his problem is. You're the problem. Did

0:21:52.240 --> 0:21:53.879
<v Speaker 1>you kick out Findling or something? We I was he

0:21:54.000 --> 0:21:58.200
<v Speaker 1>talking about bringing him back? No, I diin't. I ain't know.

0:21:58.320 --> 0:22:01.679
<v Speaker 1>He's he's a Findley is a stalker. He's a creepy guy.

0:22:01.720 --> 0:22:05.720
<v Speaker 1>He's like the Deshaun Watson, Oh boy of the radio.

0:22:07.200 --> 0:22:08.480
<v Speaker 1>That's what I hear. I don't know. That's what you

0:22:08.520 --> 0:22:10.240
<v Speaker 1>told me off the year? Is that not said that

0:22:10.320 --> 0:22:12.120
<v Speaker 1>to you? You told me that off the year. I'm

0:22:12.119 --> 0:22:14.920
<v Speaker 1>just repeating what you told me. I never have disparaging

0:22:15.160 --> 0:22:18.280
<v Speaker 1>remarks for for my colleagues here, and that's a line.

0:22:18.680 --> 0:22:21.159
<v Speaker 1>That's a lie. Nobody gossips more than you. You're like

0:22:21.200 --> 0:22:24.760
<v Speaker 1>a schoolyard girl. He just gossip gossip. Gossip. People tell

0:22:24.800 --> 0:22:27.240

0:22:41.240 --> 0:22:48.080
<v Speaker 1>Mitch and Fort Collins, Colorado. Ever been to Fort Collins?

0:22:48.080 --> 0:22:51.879
<v Speaker 1>I have, yes, fan, No not a fan. I like it.

0:22:51.960 --> 0:22:55.960
<v Speaker 1>I mean I like Denver better, but yeah, Colorado is

0:22:55.960 --> 0:23:00.600
<v Speaker 1>a great state, alright, Mitch, Right, So, and he says

0:23:00.640 --> 0:23:03.600
<v Speaker 1>that have you watched the documentary? Assume you have Baseball

0:23:03.680 --> 0:23:06.800
<v Speaker 1>by Ken Burns, the PBS documentary. I don't know how

0:23:06.880 --> 0:23:10.240
<v Speaker 1>I've missed it my entire life, but I watched it

0:23:10.280 --> 0:23:13.719
<v Speaker 1>on PBS over the weekend. I enjoyed the history telling.

0:23:13.880 --> 0:23:16.800
<v Speaker 1>I was wondering, you know, what you thought of it,

0:23:17.080 --> 0:23:21.080
<v Speaker 1>and if you have any suggestions on other cool baseball

0:23:21.160 --> 0:23:25.639
<v Speaker 1>history books or documentaries that every fan should have in

0:23:25.720 --> 0:23:29.560
<v Speaker 1>their library. Uh. Yeah, I mean there's a bunch of

0:23:29.560 --> 0:23:32.560
<v Speaker 1>baseball documentaries that you know it's hard. Off the top

0:23:32.600 --> 0:23:37.119
<v Speaker 1>of my head, the Baseball Card one, which is it

0:23:37.240 --> 0:23:39.960
<v Speaker 1>was made a couple of years ago, exposing the upper

0:23:40.000 --> 0:23:43.000
<v Speaker 1>deck scandal again opening up a wound. If you're around

0:23:43.000 --> 0:23:44.600
<v Speaker 1>my age, I don't know how hold your, Mitch, but

0:23:44.640 --> 0:23:46.480
<v Speaker 1>maybe you're a little younger, maybe a little older. But

0:23:46.600 --> 0:23:48.399
<v Speaker 1>that was a big one for me. There was a

0:23:48.520 --> 0:23:51.560
<v Speaker 1>documentary about a minor league baseball team in Oregon in

0:23:51.600 --> 0:23:56.760
<v Speaker 1>Portland that was pretty good. I saw that. Oh and Screwball.

0:23:57.280 --> 0:24:01.320
<v Speaker 1>Remember Screwball? That was the one about Alex Rodriguez and

0:24:01.560 --> 0:24:05.439
<v Speaker 1>the Biogenesis Clinic. That was a very good documentary. That

0:24:05.520 --> 0:24:08.399
<v Speaker 1>was a few years ago. And I have a fond

0:24:08.440 --> 0:24:11.080
<v Speaker 1>memory of the Baseball documentary from Ken Burns. I was

0:24:11.160 --> 0:24:13.400
<v Speaker 1>working at the Mighty six ninety in San Diego when

0:24:13.440 --> 0:24:16.679
<v Speaker 1>that came out in the nineties, and I was I

0:24:16.760 --> 0:24:19.960
<v Speaker 1>was a lowly peon at the radio station, and they

0:24:20.000 --> 0:24:22.600
<v Speaker 1>felt bad for me because I was I was getting

0:24:22.640 --> 0:24:24.240
<v Speaker 1>no money and I was a you know, low man

0:24:24.240 --> 0:24:26.400
<v Speaker 1>on the Total Bowl and they hooked me up with

0:24:26.520 --> 0:24:28.240
<v Speaker 1>the Baseball and that was a big deal. I have

0:24:28.280 --> 0:24:30.399
<v Speaker 1>the I had. I just got rid of it recently.

0:24:30.440 --> 0:24:32.840
<v Speaker 1>But the VHS copy that's a whole long ago. This

0:24:33.040 --> 0:24:35.800
<v Speaker 1>was of the Ken Burns Baseball documentary, but it was

0:24:35.840 --> 0:24:38.800
<v Speaker 1>well done. He also says, Mitch, do you think they

0:24:38.800 --> 0:24:43.240
<v Speaker 1>should make a sequel to cover the nineties the steroid here,

0:24:43.359 --> 0:24:48.480
<v Speaker 1>the cheating, as strows, well, that would be great. I

0:24:48.480 --> 0:24:53.080
<v Speaker 1>I actually subscribe to the doc PBS as like a documentary.

0:24:53.119 --> 0:24:56.480
<v Speaker 1>I love documentary, so they have a documentary streaming service.

0:24:57.359 --> 0:24:59.840
<v Speaker 1>It's pretty much all ken burn stuff, which is cool.

0:25:00.160 --> 0:25:02.400
<v Speaker 1>And uh, and you know, Burns his great I thought

0:25:02.400 --> 0:25:05.520
<v Speaker 1>I were trying to cancel him. Weren't they the lunatics

0:25:05.520 --> 0:25:08.639
<v Speaker 1>trying to cancel Ken Burns? The uh, the woke mob

0:25:08.760 --> 0:25:12.240
<v Speaker 1>was upset because Ken's white and that's problematic and they

0:25:12.240 --> 0:25:13.800
<v Speaker 1>had to get him out of there. And there's a

0:25:13.800 --> 0:25:17.040
<v Speaker 1>lot of layers though with baseball these days, just the nineties,

0:25:17.080 --> 0:25:20.600
<v Speaker 1>like you mentioned the ownership that turned a blind eye

0:25:20.680 --> 0:25:24.719
<v Speaker 1>to that stuff, and then you know the Red Sox

0:25:24.800 --> 0:25:27.480
<v Speaker 1>one of the World Series, and people are ending the

0:25:27.520 --> 0:25:29.600
<v Speaker 1>Curse of the banding of the Cubs, ending the curse

0:25:29.640 --> 0:25:31.159
<v Speaker 1>of the Billy Goat. Well, you could just talk to

0:25:31.240 --> 0:25:33.560
<v Speaker 1>about Manny and David Ortiz, right, Like those are two

0:25:33.600 --> 0:25:36.360
<v Speaker 1>guys that were using p E. D s that obviously

0:25:36.400 --> 0:25:39.160
<v Speaker 1>helped them get over the top them come. But just

0:25:39.160 --> 0:25:41.600
<v Speaker 1>just you could do two documentaries, one each on the

0:25:41.600 --> 0:25:43.240
<v Speaker 1>Curse of the ban Being, which I'm sure has already

0:25:43.240 --> 0:25:45.720
<v Speaker 1>been done, and then the Billy Goat and or combine

0:25:45.760 --> 0:25:47.840
<v Speaker 1>those things together. Nome. When I was a kid, I

0:25:48.320 --> 0:25:51.359
<v Speaker 1>my brother moved to New York when I was in

0:25:51.480 --> 0:25:54.119
<v Speaker 1>high school, and I went back to visit him. First time,

0:25:54.160 --> 0:25:56.000
<v Speaker 1>went to a Yankee game at the old Yankee Stadium

0:25:56.240 --> 0:25:58.200
<v Speaker 1>and they were playing the Red Sox and the Red

0:25:58.200 --> 0:26:00.080
<v Speaker 1>Sox weren't very good. But I still remember I and

0:26:00.119 --> 0:26:01.880
<v Speaker 1>the bleachers because I wanted to be in the bleachers

0:26:01.880 --> 0:26:04.600
<v Speaker 1>because I had heard things about the bleacher creatures and

0:26:04.600 --> 0:26:06.560
<v Speaker 1>it was pretty well because there were like women fighting

0:26:06.600 --> 0:26:08.439
<v Speaker 1>with women in the bleachers. The Yankee state in the

0:26:08.440 --> 0:26:10.200
<v Speaker 1>game I went to. It was pretty crazy. But now

0:26:10.240 --> 0:26:12.320
<v Speaker 1>I heard it's all corporate. Now it's all they've raised

0:26:12.359 --> 0:26:15.000
<v Speaker 1>the prices and everything. But it was expensive then. But

0:26:16.000 --> 0:26:19.359
<v Speaker 1>the fans like the Red Sox. Uh anytime the Yankees

0:26:19.359 --> 0:26:25.640
<v Speaker 1>did anything, and the Yankee Bleacher Creatures were nineteen eighteen nineteen.

0:26:26.240 --> 0:26:32.400
<v Speaker 1>It was great. It was out standing. Fond memories of that. Emmett,

0:26:32.400 --> 0:26:35.560
<v Speaker 1>the blind Seahawk fan, this kid is the breakout star.

0:26:36.359 --> 0:26:39.720
<v Speaker 1>What a wonderful caller he is. He's better than the

0:26:39.760 --> 0:26:42.119
<v Speaker 1>grown ups and he's only in high school, sixteen years old.

0:26:42.160 --> 0:26:45.800
<v Speaker 1>This kid really talented. He's going places. Blind him the

0:26:45.800 --> 0:26:51.359
<v Speaker 1>Seahawk fan says, uh, did you fire Gagon? Yes, we

0:26:51.520 --> 0:26:55.040
<v Speaker 1>re hired him, but we fired him last week. Emmett

0:26:55.080 --> 0:27:00.480
<v Speaker 1>also says, what is the best dish you can make? Well? None, Emmett, none.

0:27:00.560 --> 0:27:07.520
<v Speaker 1>The Mallard pizza is bone appetite. It is year. But

0:27:07.600 --> 0:27:11.240
<v Speaker 1>I was so good this. It was so good, you dummy,

0:27:11.280 --> 0:27:13.760
<v Speaker 1>that I had to eat it fast. I couldn't wait

0:27:13.800 --> 0:27:16.959
<v Speaker 1>to get it into my mouth. I was savoring every

0:27:17.080 --> 0:27:21.080
<v Speaker 1>little it was. It was a medley for my taste, Budge.

0:27:21.960 --> 0:27:25.560
<v Speaker 1>It was so yummy, it was amazing. You're stress eating

0:27:25.640 --> 0:27:28.800
<v Speaker 1>because you could not get a media credential from the Rams,

0:27:28.920 --> 0:27:32.080
<v Speaker 1>so you went home you burned. That is true. But

0:27:32.760 --> 0:27:34.600
<v Speaker 1>I like, I'm gonna stick into the Rams because they

0:27:34.600 --> 0:27:37.440
<v Speaker 1>were they were playing the Buccaneers who had Jamis Winston,

0:27:37.480 --> 0:27:40.920
<v Speaker 1>who were terrible, and they wouldn't let me in. Yeah,

0:27:41.680 --> 0:27:44.480
<v Speaker 1>the team I I suck up to every night on

0:27:44.520 --> 0:27:46.919
<v Speaker 1>the radio and giving them publicity, these assholes, and they

0:27:46.920 --> 0:27:50.080
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't let me in, Like those ship bags in Seattle,

0:27:50.119 --> 0:27:52.800
<v Speaker 1>the Seahawks, who wouldn't allow me in there either. Um,

0:27:52.840 --> 0:27:54.359
<v Speaker 1>I guess I'm not allowed at some of these NFL

0:27:54.440 --> 0:27:56.399
<v Speaker 1>state I'm banned from me. I'm like Kaepernick, I'm not

0:27:56.440 --> 0:27:59.480
<v Speaker 1>allowed in the NFL. But uh. But anyway, so I

0:27:59.520 --> 0:28:02.320
<v Speaker 1>was like, oh, my, a pizza and I'll watch the game,

0:28:02.359 --> 0:28:03.760
<v Speaker 1>and I can make a better pizza than I can

0:28:03.920 --> 0:28:05.360
<v Speaker 1>eat Peter Food than if I went to the game.

0:28:05.400 --> 0:28:08.600
<v Speaker 1>And then I I made a delicious pizza, but I

0:28:08.800 --> 0:28:10.600
<v Speaker 1>was so in such a rush to eat it because

0:28:10.600 --> 0:28:14.720
<v Speaker 1>I was hungry. I'd been on a fast and uh yeah,

0:28:14.520 --> 0:28:18.879
<v Speaker 1>a little little uh mouthfeasance on my part eating the

0:28:18.920 --> 0:28:24.200
<v Speaker 1>pizzaster burn your no. But I'm a good no emt.

0:28:24.200 --> 0:28:26.879
<v Speaker 1>I'm a good cook man. I can make uh like

0:28:27.000 --> 0:28:29.920
<v Speaker 1>chicken palm en, chicken parma gena. I make that very

0:28:29.920 --> 0:28:33.680
<v Speaker 1>good chicken fingers. I make a rip off Popeye's chicken sandwich,

0:28:33.960 --> 0:28:38.760
<v Speaker 1>raising cane chicken fingers like it's all delicious. It's finger

0:28:38.840 --> 0:28:40.640
<v Speaker 1>licking good. I guess we can use that because camc

<v Speaker 1>retired that it's finger licking good. Cheese. I make the

0:28:45.200 --> 0:28:47.360
<v Speaker 1>Philly cheese steak. That's right. I mean this is some Yeah,

0:28:47.440 --> 0:28:49.840
<v Speaker 1>I like it. And that's something I didn't really cook

0:28:49.920 --> 0:28:52.480
<v Speaker 1>until I got married. My wife taught me a little bit,

0:28:52.560 --> 0:28:55.480
<v Speaker 1>and I learned some stuff off YouTube. But I was

0:28:55.520 --> 0:29:00.280
<v Speaker 1>a TV dinner fast food guy before before I got married.

0:29:00.320 --> 0:29:03.880
<v Speaker 1>So it's only been somewhat recently, the last ten years

0:29:03.960 --> 0:29:08.960
<v Speaker 1>or so that I started cooking. Great question, Emvalls fan

0:29:09.480 --> 0:29:13.200
<v Speaker 1>Jimmy from Fayetteville, Tennessee, says, big, have you ever had

0:29:13.240 --> 0:29:16.600
<v Speaker 1>a conflict at the Ugly sweater Christmas party that you

0:29:16.680 --> 0:29:20.040
<v Speaker 1>had to step in between you And has Bella ever

0:29:20.160 --> 0:29:25.600
<v Speaker 1>bitten anyone? Uh? No, I actually have a great Bella

0:29:25.680 --> 0:29:29.160
<v Speaker 1>story that I forgot. Oh, this is great. I'm glad

0:29:29.240 --> 0:29:32.280
<v Speaker 1>you see you triggered this, Jimmy, Have we had any fights? No,

0:29:32.800 --> 0:29:34.560
<v Speaker 1>that the closest we came to a fight was a

0:29:34.560 --> 0:29:37.640
<v Speaker 1>douchebag that showed up and ninety minutes late and complained

0:29:37.640 --> 0:29:40.720
<v Speaker 1>about the food. That was the biggest asshole. And then

0:29:40.760 --> 0:29:44.920
<v Speaker 1>my friend already who gets completely wasted every year and

0:29:45.480 --> 0:29:47.800
<v Speaker 1>starts telling stories of when he was in desert storm

0:29:48.440 --> 0:29:50.640
<v Speaker 1>and uh, it goes rat a tat tat with it.

0:29:50.800 --> 0:29:52.920
<v Speaker 1>He makes the fake gun. That's that's about as far

0:29:52.960 --> 0:29:55.920
<v Speaker 1>as crazy town as we've gone. He doesn't leave until

0:29:55.960 --> 0:29:57.880
<v Speaker 1>like three in the morning. Now he's the last one,

0:29:58.240 --> 0:30:00.800
<v Speaker 1>you know, we have to shepherd him out. He's the

0:30:00.880 --> 0:30:03.400
<v Speaker 1>last one every year at the Mallard Ugly Sweater party.

0:30:04.080 --> 0:30:07.160
<v Speaker 1>But the Bella story. So we've been moving some stuff

0:30:07.160 --> 0:30:09.640
<v Speaker 1>around the Mallard mansion. Again, we'll tell you later why

0:30:09.720 --> 0:30:11.760
<v Speaker 1>we're doing that. But we're moving some stuff around, like

0:30:11.800 --> 0:30:16.600
<v Speaker 1>inside and outside, redecorating some stuff, and uh, you know

0:30:16.680 --> 0:30:22.040
<v Speaker 1>that some stuff was taken outside. And uh, let's just

0:30:22.080 --> 0:30:26.600
<v Speaker 1>say that it was it was a night. I was

0:30:26.640 --> 0:30:32.479
<v Speaker 1>doing the show this week, and I didn't really I

0:30:32.480 --> 0:30:35.200
<v Speaker 1>hadn't seen Bella the Dog my dog in a while.

0:30:35.240 --> 0:30:37.120
<v Speaker 1>I have a studio and I do the show and

0:30:37.200 --> 0:30:39.320
<v Speaker 1>Bella sometimes sits in with me when I do the show.

0:30:39.360 --> 0:30:41.719
<v Speaker 1>Usually not, She's bored with it. Like every woman in

0:30:41.720 --> 0:30:44.960
<v Speaker 1>my life. Anybody in radio knows this. When you tell

0:30:44.960 --> 0:30:46.960
<v Speaker 1>a woman you're dating you're in radio, they were very

0:30:46.960 --> 0:30:49.880
<v Speaker 1>excited to listen to everything you do for the first

0:30:49.960 --> 0:30:52.440
<v Speaker 1>like couple of shows, and then about a week later

0:30:52.480 --> 0:30:56.280
<v Speaker 1>they never listened again. Happens all the time. So so anyways, like, well,

0:30:56.320 --> 0:30:59.480
<v Speaker 1>Bella got bored with me. She's so then like it's

0:30:59.520 --> 0:31:04.200
<v Speaker 1>like two in the morning and I hear this like

0:31:04.440 --> 0:31:07.720
<v Speaker 1>scratching sound on the door, like the door to the

0:31:07.720 --> 0:31:12.040
<v Speaker 1>outside from my studio, and so I hear the scratching sound, right, Like,

0:31:12.200 --> 0:31:14.400
<v Speaker 1>what the fund is that? Is there? Like a wild

0:31:14.440 --> 0:31:17.080
<v Speaker 1>animal out there? Is I got coyote or a skunk?

0:31:17.120 --> 0:31:20.360
<v Speaker 1>And I I opened up the door and I don't

0:31:20.400 --> 0:31:25.040
<v Speaker 1>see anything. I'm like, whoa, Like I'm in the twilight zone, man,

0:31:25.280 --> 0:31:29.760
<v Speaker 1>Like what the funk happened, and so like, all right,

0:31:29.880 --> 0:31:33.200
<v Speaker 1>I go back, I do the show, and then I

0:31:33.200 --> 0:31:36.480
<v Speaker 1>I wrapped up the show and I'm kind of winding

0:31:36.520 --> 0:31:40.280
<v Speaker 1>down and I hear it again, and I text my wife.

0:31:40.280 --> 0:31:42.640
<v Speaker 1>I said, well, there's an animal outside my door and

0:31:42.640 --> 0:31:44.600
<v Speaker 1>it's I looked at I didn't see anything. What is

0:31:44.600 --> 0:31:47.560
<v Speaker 1>going on? And she said, probably Bella. I said, no, no,

0:31:47.640 --> 0:31:51.120
<v Speaker 1>it's not Bella. And I go through the house to

0:31:51.120 --> 0:31:55.320
<v Speaker 1>try to find Bella. Can't find Bella. So I don't

0:31:55.360 --> 0:31:57.880
<v Speaker 1>hear the noise noise anymore. I go back out. I

0:31:58.360 --> 0:32:02.960
<v Speaker 1>then open the door with the flashlight and there is Bella,

0:32:03.160 --> 0:32:07.800
<v Speaker 1>freezing her ass off, shivering, sitting by the door, waiting

0:32:07.800 --> 0:32:11.200
<v Speaker 1>for me to open the door. She had spent all night,

0:32:11.400 --> 0:32:14.960
<v Speaker 1>probably from like seven o'clock in the evening until two

0:32:14.960 --> 0:32:16.920
<v Speaker 1>in the morning or three actually by this point it

0:32:16.960 --> 0:32:21.080
<v Speaker 1>was like three in the morning, uh, sitting outside, And

0:32:21.320 --> 0:32:23.320
<v Speaker 1>so we almost loved Bella could have run away, she

0:32:23.360 --> 0:32:25.440
<v Speaker 1>could have been like in another state by the time

0:32:25.480 --> 0:32:30.680
<v Speaker 1>I figured out that she was outside. That's my Bella story.

0:32:30.760 --> 0:32:33.280
<v Speaker 1>How how cold do you think it was? I mean

0:32:33.280 --> 0:32:36.520
<v Speaker 1>it wasn't that was California cold. I mean, it wasn't

0:32:36.600 --> 0:32:39.240
<v Speaker 1>like cold, cold, but California. But she hasn't for coats,

0:32:39.280 --> 0:32:42.440
<v Speaker 1>so she's all right, yeah, but you since she was shivering, Yeah,

0:32:42.480 --> 0:32:46.440
<v Speaker 1>she seemed annoyed cold and like, hey, asshole, I've been

0:32:46.480 --> 0:32:49.240
<v Speaker 1>out here the whole time. But in my defense, I

0:32:49.320 --> 0:32:51.400
<v Speaker 1>had headphones on most of the time, so I couldn't

0:32:51.440 --> 0:32:56.480
<v Speaker 1>hear it. Got you. Yeah, that's that's that. Kevin and

0:32:56.600 --> 0:32:59.240
<v Speaker 1>Kansas says, Hey, Ben as kids, did you? And David

0:33:00.080 --> 0:33:02.600
<v Speaker 1>he says, this must be a mistake. The best produced,

0:33:02.680 --> 0:33:05.360
<v Speaker 1>the best podcast co host out there, by that's a mistake.

0:33:05.440 --> 0:33:09.640
<v Speaker 1>Bam bamming. Uh did you ever have dreams of playing

0:33:10.040 --> 0:33:12.680
<v Speaker 1>a professional sport when you grew up? And if so,

0:33:12.800 --> 0:33:15.640
<v Speaker 1>did you have a specific player you emulated? Keep the

0:33:15.720 --> 0:33:23.040
<v Speaker 1>podcast coming. Oh yeah, listen, I was an amazing basketball

0:33:23.080 --> 0:33:27.800
<v Speaker 1>player in the Moneyball Mallard originated in the backyard at

0:33:27.800 --> 0:33:31.360
<v Speaker 1>the Mallard mansion. The hoop there had fun, but I

0:33:31.360 --> 0:33:34.720
<v Speaker 1>would play baseball for hours with the tennis ball. We

0:33:34.800 --> 0:33:37.280
<v Speaker 1>used to play street ball in the neighborhood. And we

0:33:37.320 --> 0:33:39.640
<v Speaker 1>had in that house we grew up in, we had

0:33:39.640 --> 0:33:42.640
<v Speaker 1>eucalyptus trees, these giant eucalyptus trees in the in there's

0:33:42.680 --> 0:33:44.320
<v Speaker 1>like a green belt in the middle of the street,

0:33:44.840 --> 0:33:47.560
<v Speaker 1>and so it was perfect. The way the driveway was

0:33:47.600 --> 0:33:52.120
<v Speaker 1>lined up. There were three of these eucalyptus trees, and

0:33:52.160 --> 0:33:56.440
<v Speaker 1>so we had first base, second base, and third base,

0:33:56.480 --> 0:34:00.719
<v Speaker 1>each of each giant these massive trees were were and

0:34:00.760 --> 0:34:02.320
<v Speaker 1>so we did that. But then I would I was

0:34:02.360 --> 0:34:04.200
<v Speaker 1>such a loser. I had no friends for a while

0:34:04.280 --> 0:34:06.760
<v Speaker 1>that I would just for hours throw the tennis ball

0:34:06.800 --> 0:34:10.320
<v Speaker 1>against the wall and I would imagine, you know, I

0:34:10.360 --> 0:34:14.120
<v Speaker 1>was you know, any number of players. I would go

0:34:14.120 --> 0:34:16.880
<v Speaker 1>through the list because I'd watch This Weekend Baseball and

0:34:16.920 --> 0:34:19.360
<v Speaker 1>then I was Dodging fan. But I watched This Weekend

0:34:19.360 --> 0:34:21.400
<v Speaker 1>Baseball and be like, oh, you know, they do some

0:34:21.520 --> 0:34:24.319
<v Speaker 1>vignette on Ozzy Smith, you know, because he was a player,

0:34:24.320 --> 0:34:25.920
<v Speaker 1>a big star in those days, and I'd be the

0:34:25.920 --> 0:34:27.719
<v Speaker 1>Wizard of Oz, you know, and I'd be like, all right,

0:34:27.880 --> 0:34:30.439
<v Speaker 1>and then I'd make these plays back, you know, going

0:34:30.480 --> 0:34:33.120
<v Speaker 1>there and and then uh, you know, behind the back

0:34:33.200 --> 0:34:35.319
<v Speaker 1>throws and things like. I mean, it was crazy. I

0:34:35.400 --> 0:34:39.440
<v Speaker 1>was good, and obviously football, but football I knew I

0:34:39.480 --> 0:34:42.440
<v Speaker 1>was gonna be alignment. So I channeled some of the

0:34:42.440 --> 0:34:45.359
<v Speaker 1>the alignment of the day. What about you guess, and yeah,

0:34:45.400 --> 0:34:48.359
<v Speaker 1>I I mean I thought about growing up, I thought

0:34:48.360 --> 0:34:51.879
<v Speaker 1>about playing outside of basketball. I thought about playing every

0:34:51.920 --> 0:34:55.640
<v Speaker 1>sport professionally. But I was really good in hockey, but

0:34:55.920 --> 0:34:59.040
<v Speaker 1>my parents couldn't afford the insurance for for goal equipment.

0:34:59.239 --> 0:35:04.760
<v Speaker 1>And then, um, I played baseball in college and football

0:35:04.760 --> 0:35:08.440
<v Speaker 1>in college, and I thought I was I was better

0:35:08.680 --> 0:35:12.760
<v Speaker 1>in football, but my dad thinks I had more talented baseball.

0:35:12.800 --> 0:35:15.799
<v Speaker 1>And I'm left handed and I was a picture. Um

0:35:15.920 --> 0:35:19.160
<v Speaker 1>but I love. That's a tough racket though, baseball. Man.

0:35:19.200 --> 0:35:20.719
<v Speaker 1>I had a buddy in high school that was a

0:35:20.840 --> 0:35:23.400
<v Speaker 1>very good player. And actually the first time I went

0:35:23.440 --> 0:35:24.919
<v Speaker 1>to a couple high school with the first high school

0:35:24.920 --> 0:35:29.080
<v Speaker 1>I went to, and he got drafted and he toiled

0:35:29.080 --> 0:35:31.320
<v Speaker 1>in the minor leagues. He never made the big leagues,

0:35:32.400 --> 0:35:34.560
<v Speaker 1>and he was in the minor leagues. He got he

0:35:34.640 --> 0:35:36.360
<v Speaker 1>got you know, double A. Had a couple of buddies

0:35:36.360 --> 0:35:39.160
<v Speaker 1>he got to double A. One guy was with the

0:35:39.160 --> 0:35:41.520
<v Speaker 1>Blue Jays and he was like there. He was their

0:35:41.560 --> 0:35:46.279
<v Speaker 1>second rated minor league prospect in a ball and he

0:35:46.360 --> 0:35:48.680
<v Speaker 1>got to double A and he did okay, and then

0:35:48.760 --> 0:35:51.520
<v Speaker 1>he went to triple and couldn't hit. I just forgot

0:35:51.520 --> 0:35:53.600
<v Speaker 1>how to hit and then he never never made it.

0:35:53.719 --> 0:35:55.680
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, I mean I grew up. I mean I

0:35:55.719 --> 0:35:58.160
<v Speaker 1>was a huge Broncos fans. I love John Elway, but

0:35:58.600 --> 0:36:00.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm you know, left handed and half any left hand

0:36:00.600 --> 0:36:03.880
<v Speaker 1>quarterbacks outside of Steve Young, and so I tried to

0:36:04.239 --> 0:36:07.680
<v Speaker 1>emulate Shinnon Sharp, you know, as a great ship talker.

0:36:07.800 --> 0:36:10.719
<v Speaker 1>But he was a was a great receiver even at

0:36:10.719 --> 0:36:12.520
<v Speaker 1>tight end. I was a better blocker than new Ones.

0:36:12.640 --> 0:36:16.680
<v Speaker 1>But um, but yeah, man, I Well, the one guy

0:36:16.719 --> 0:36:20.000
<v Speaker 1>that I remember was was like I kept reading these

0:36:20.120 --> 0:36:24.920
<v Speaker 1>mythical lumber lumberjack stories about this guy was Tony Manderidge.

0:36:24.920 --> 0:36:28.600
<v Speaker 1>Who was this offensive lineman. Well he was. He was

0:36:28.640 --> 0:36:32.480
<v Speaker 1>at Michigan State and he was the second overall pick.

0:36:32.480 --> 0:36:34.120
<v Speaker 1>We talked to Ryan Leef the other day, who was

0:36:34.320 --> 0:36:36.960
<v Speaker 1>one of the great NFL draft bus But Tony Manderish

0:36:37.000 --> 0:36:39.120
<v Speaker 1>he didn't get as much attention from being a disaster

0:36:39.640 --> 0:36:42.720
<v Speaker 1>because he was an offensive lineman. But he was drafted

0:36:42.719 --> 0:36:46.839
<v Speaker 1>by the Green Bay Packers in the late eighties and

0:36:47.400 --> 0:36:50.160
<v Speaker 1>was who I guess, he was a total fraud. He

0:36:50.840 --> 0:36:53.480
<v Speaker 1>was all like a steroid guy and he just couldn't play. Yeah,

0:36:54.960 --> 0:36:57.680
<v Speaker 1>but I thought I'd read these stories and I believed everything.

0:36:57.719 --> 0:37:00.360
<v Speaker 1>At that time, I was not naive and Jay and

0:37:00.400 --> 0:37:03.200
<v Speaker 1>I believed everything I read, and you know, the eyes

0:37:03.239 --> 0:37:05.400
<v Speaker 1>of a child. I was like, you know, a teenager,

0:37:05.440 --> 0:37:07.560
<v Speaker 1>and I was like, whoa, this guy is great, you know,

0:37:08.200 --> 0:37:12.560
<v Speaker 1>highly touted at Michigan State and and this this guy

0:37:12.760 --> 0:37:16.200
<v Speaker 1>he was in this draft class. Think about the other

0:37:16.200 --> 0:37:22.120
<v Speaker 1>players that draft had Troy Aikman, Barry Sanders, Dion Sanders,

0:37:22.920 --> 0:37:29.320
<v Speaker 1>Derek Thomas, and Tony Mandrich. Who doesn't belong on that list? Man,

0:37:30.640 --> 0:37:33.520
<v Speaker 1>it's I mean, obviously Derrick Thomas passed away too early,

0:37:33.640 --> 0:37:37.400
<v Speaker 1>but fuck yeah, he's the only one of those top

0:37:37.440 --> 0:37:39.319
<v Speaker 1>five picks that did not end up in the Pro

0:37:39.400 --> 0:37:42.480
<v Speaker 1>Football Hall of Unbelievable. Yeah, and that's the guy I

0:37:42.520 --> 0:37:49.600
<v Speaker 1>gravitated to right there. That's my guy that was going

0:37:49.640 --> 0:37:51.680
<v Speaker 1>to be the guy right there that was going to

0:37:51.760 --> 0:37:57.440
<v Speaker 1>be it. So there you go. Pierre in Springfield, Massachusetts.

0:37:56.840 --> 0:37:59.560
<v Speaker 1>He says, Ben, do you and the mrs have any

0:37:59.600 --> 0:38:03.759
<v Speaker 1>attentions of raising offspring or Bella, Gagon and Finley more
