1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:04,440
Speaker 1: Knock, knock, who's there? Our number two. It's our two

2
00:00:04,440 --> 00:00:07,000
Speaker 1: of the Ben Malor Show, and we go take a

3
00:00:07,120 --> 00:00:10,600
Speaker 1: ride on the horse seat the Colts front office saying

4
00:00:10,640 --> 00:00:16,000
Speaker 1: they are not not trading demoted quarterback Anthony Richardson. What

5
00:00:16,079 --> 00:00:18,680
Speaker 1: does that signal to you? Also, why you ask with

6
00:00:18,760 --> 00:00:21,919
Speaker 1: the Patriots a team wandering the quarterback desert, grabbed Tommy

7
00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:25,800
Speaker 1: DeVito off the waiver wire. We'll examine that edition. And

8
00:00:25,920 --> 00:00:30,800
Speaker 1: rookie cam Ward being named El Capitan in Tennessee for

9
00:00:30,840 --> 00:00:35,839
Speaker 1: the Titans as a rookie is blank to all that

10
00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:39,600
Speaker 1: and more. Right now here, it is our number two,

11
00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:48,519
Speaker 1: throwing a horseshoe at you. Welcome in the beginning of

12
00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:52,920
Speaker 1: another hour of the Ben Mahler Show. We are in

13
00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:58,360

00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:03,240
Speaker 1: we juggle around coast coast, border to border and beyond

15
00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:08,280
Speaker 1: on the best and intergalactically powerful microphones of fs are

16
00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:10,760
Speaker 1: they say, those radio waves just keep going and going

17
00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:14,240
Speaker 1: and going and going out into the cosmos far far away,

18
00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:18,920
Speaker 1: emanating live from the theater, the theater of the mind,

19
00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:22,200
Speaker 1: and the theater of the absurd, from the world famous

20

Speaker 1: mobile tire installation ti raq dot Com The Way Tire

28
00:01:51,160 --> 00:02:01,000
Speaker 1: Buying Showy. So our lead this hour is from in Theannapolis,

29
00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:06,440
Speaker 1: a city known for the Indianapolis five hundred and a

30
00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:10,079
Speaker 1: lot of basketball. Who's your state? It's about football, It's

31
00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:15,760
Speaker 1: about football. Status update on demoted quarterback status update demoted quarterback.

32
00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:21,080
Speaker 1: If you've not heard, perhaps not. We had a rubarb

33
00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:26,080
Speaker 1: of sorts Colts general manager Chris Ballard, who somehow has

34
00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:29,320
Speaker 1: kept his job while wonder if that's going to continue.

35
00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:32,440
Speaker 1: Jim Irsay, the late owner of the Colts, very loyal

36
00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:35,400
Speaker 1: to Chris Ballard, who's put some really bad football teams together.

37
00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:39,920
Speaker 1: So Chris Ballard, the bloviating, blowhard general manager of the

38
00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:43,640
Speaker 1: Indianapolis Colts, he said that the team is not going

39
00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:48,320
Speaker 1: to trade bust quarterback Anthony Richardson who stinks, but they're

40
00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:51,960
Speaker 1: not trading him. Richardson, you might know, was demoted in

41
00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:58,239
Speaker 1: favor of another legendary stiff, Daniel Jones, the stumblebum who

42
00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:01,720
Speaker 1: failed year after year with the New York Giants in

43
00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:07,040
Speaker 1: embarrassing fashion. Ballard was quizzed on the possibility of unloading

44
00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:11,400
Speaker 1: the dead weight it is Anthony Richardson, and he responded

45
00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:18,000
Speaker 1: by saying, we're not trading him. Okay, we're not trading fine,

46
00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:21,799
Speaker 1: all right, so let us discuss the question. The Colt

47
00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:25,400
Speaker 1: front office says they are not going to deal away

48
00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:30,720
Speaker 1: bench quarterback Anthony Richardson. What does this signal to you?

49
00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:39,640
Speaker 1: So I've got spelling, bee, bellagio, and parallel parking, and

50
00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:43,160
Speaker 1: we will combine all of these things together and we

51
00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:47,360
Speaker 1: are gonna make delicious cinnamon rolls. Yum yum to my

52
00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:57,080
Speaker 1: Tom Tom So number I said, number all right, all right.

53
00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:04,760
Speaker 1: So this is a tale well of denial, dysfunction, and

54
00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:08,680
Speaker 1: delusion mixed with devotion. A lot of d's, a lot

55
00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:13,440
Speaker 1: of DSE denial, dysfunction, delusion, and devotion. It's also some stubbornness.

56
00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:18,400
Speaker 1: The Indianapolis colts. Those lovable or should I say unlovable

57
00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:24,760
Speaker 1: grid iron gatekeepers there of mediocrity. That's really the job

58
00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:28,480
Speaker 1: of Chris Ballard. He is the gatekeeper there of mediocrity.

59
00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:31,200
Speaker 1: They're at it again. So let me translate what the

60
00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:36,159
Speaker 1: Ballard of the ball said into reality. Here's how I

61
00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:39,560
Speaker 1: determined what the GM there the Colts said. He essentially said,

62
00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:44,320
Speaker 1: we tried to trade Anthony Richardson. Nobody wanted the guy

63
00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:49,320
Speaker 1: because he's covered in fleas and flies, and now we're

64
00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:53,159
Speaker 1: stuck holding onto this guy. He's a hot potato. So

65
00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:56,800
Speaker 1: this is the NFL's version of trying to sell a

66
00:04:56,920 --> 00:05:00,520
Speaker 1: used car that has no engine. That car's gotten engine,

67
00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:03,560
Speaker 1: it's got three flat tires, and if you open the

68
00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:06,680
Speaker 1: glove box there's a raccoon living in there. You can

69
00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:09,359
Speaker 1: slap a fresh coat of paint on it, right, you

70
00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:14,240
Speaker 1: can say a slightly used and it still smells like regret.

71
00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:18,720
Speaker 1: There's some problems there now the Colts front office. Really,

72
00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:21,560
Speaker 1: what they're doing Ballard is like an overnight sports talk

73
00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:26,240
Speaker 1: radio caller from years ago. Spin cycle, Regina, Spin, Spin, Spin, Spin,

74
00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:29,640
Speaker 1: Spin out of Minnesota. They're not ready to admit they're

75
00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:33,120
Speaker 1: in Indy that they drafted a turkey, But they did

76
00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:38,480
Speaker 1: draft a Turkey. Now, later on, in this fiery confrontation

77
00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:42,200
Speaker 1: between the Colt GM and the media, Ballard claimed that

78
00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:47,360
Speaker 1: Richardson would quote be learning behind a professional, is what

79
00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:50,520
Speaker 1: he said regarding his status here in twenty twenty five.

80
00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:55,000
Speaker 1: Now that is code for we are hiding Anthony Richardson

81
00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:58,920
Speaker 1: the quarterback behind another quarterback, Daniel Jones, and hoping that

82
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:04,400
Speaker 1: nobody notices that he also also has bo right, which

83
00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:08,520
Speaker 1: made us wonder, made us wonder if the Colts GM

84
00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:10,800
Speaker 1: has been hanging out with the Golden Dragon. If you

85
00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:14,520
Speaker 1: know what I mean here losing a quarterback battle like

86
00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:17,880
Speaker 1: to Daniel Jones. If you're Anthony Richardson and you lost

87
00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:21,320
Speaker 1: a quarterback battle to Daniel Jones, it is akin to

88
00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:25,760
Speaker 1: losing a spelling bee to a parrot. Okay, you should

89
00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:28,240
Speaker 1: never lose a spelling bee to a parrot, and you

90
00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:32,640
Speaker 1: should never lose a quarterback competition to Daniel Jones. If

91
00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:35,400
Speaker 1: you're a top five draft pick with the team that

92
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:39,320
Speaker 1: drafted you, and the rest of the NFL knows the

93
00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:44,200
Speaker 1: culture bluff, they're waiting for the inevitable waiver wire clearance sale.

94
00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:48,560
Speaker 1: Why pay full price when you can scoop Richardson up

95
00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:53,839
Speaker 1: for free, if you'd even want him. Iired some chatter

96
00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:57,640
Speaker 1: that Richardson will have a chance to change positions. He's

97
00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:01,839
Speaker 1: that bad. He's that bad as a quarterback. Now, my

98
00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:05,120
Speaker 1: counter to that is Richardson gets hurt all the time,

99
00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:08,080
Speaker 1: mostly running the ball. So if you're gonna make him

100
00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:10,520
Speaker 1: a running back or some kind of tight end or

101
00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:13,320
Speaker 1: something like that, wouldn't he just keep getting hurt? So

102
00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:13,960
Speaker 1: what's the point?

103
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:14,480
Speaker 2: All right? Now?

104
00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:17,680
Speaker 1: Page two to the waiver wire. As we run the

105
00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:22,800
Speaker 1: mouth to the waiver wire, waiver wire, and look over there,

106
00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:27,040
Speaker 1: Tommy DeVito has a new home. Do you see this? Yes,

107
00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:30,600
Speaker 1: that Tommy Davido. He's got a new home. Tommy DeVito

108
00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:36,400
Speaker 1: is headed too the New England football team, the folk

109
00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:41,400
Speaker 1: hero quarterback from Jersey, native of New Jersey, claimed off

110
00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:46,800
Speaker 1: waivers by the Patsies. And that ends that romantic rom

111
00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:52,120
Speaker 1: com with his hometown Giants. So why, you ask, would

112
00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:56,200
Speaker 1: the Patriots a team currently wandering the quarterback desert. They

113
00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:59,360
Speaker 1: don't know whether Drake May is going to be good

114
00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:03,640
Speaker 1: or not, and they have the astronaut as the backup,

115
00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:08,440
Speaker 1: So why would they grab Tommy DeVito? It's pretty simple here,

116
00:08:08,920 --> 00:08:11,760
Speaker 1: all right. It's kind of like you're you've paid for

117
00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:17,800
Speaker 1: the buffet at the Belagio. You're walking down the buffet line.

118
00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:21,680
Speaker 1: You see the prime rib is already gone. The herb

119
00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:27,240
Speaker 1: crusted chicken with champagne cream sauce is empty. But there

120
00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:31,080
Speaker 1: is a little bit of spaghetti and a couple of

121
00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:34,640
Speaker 1: meat balls just sitting there. Now do you want that

122
00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:38,880
Speaker 1: as your meal? Probably not, you know, not really. However,

123
00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:43,920
Speaker 1: you're not just gonna walk away from the buffet empty handy.

124
00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:47,120
Speaker 1: You don't want to be hungry, so you take the

125
00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:49,360
Speaker 1: plate and that's it. And that's what the patriots are

126
00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:52,040
Speaker 1: doing here. It's not really about de Vito being some

127
00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:55,280
Speaker 1: kind of savior, you know. This is not the second

128
00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:59,640
Speaker 1: coming of Tom Brady. No not, They're going to ride

129
00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:02,760
Speaker 1: in there on a white horse. That's not it. It's

130
00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:05,600
Speaker 1: more of a pat job, little Duc tape and all that.

131
00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:10,120
Speaker 1: So Mike Rabel's patriots. They are the guys who busted

132
00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:12,640
Speaker 1: a tire on the on the highway there and they

133
00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:15,680
Speaker 1: rolled into the gas station and they said, okay, I

134
00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:17,760
Speaker 1: got a new tire. It's gonna cost you this much

135
00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:19,640
Speaker 1: as I don't want a new tire, I'm gonna get

136
00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:21,440
Speaker 1: one of those cans of the you know that fix

137
00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:23,480
Speaker 1: a flat thing. I'll just get that and I'll get

138
00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:25,880
Speaker 1: to fix a flat and that's it. That's Tommy Cutlets.

139
00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:30,560
Speaker 1: The veto Tommy DeVito is a fun story, right, We

140
00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:32,439
Speaker 1: talked about him a lot in the previous episode. I

141
00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:34,280
Speaker 1: think we all know the story. We pay attention to

142
00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:37,319
Speaker 1: this stuff. Rocky bow bowa right, you know, he's he's

143
00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:40,800
Speaker 1: so Italian. He takes a bath in marinera sauce and

144
00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:44,040
Speaker 1: but this is desperation, and so the Patriots like, ah,

145
00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:47,560
Speaker 1: why not? You know, you imagine when this guy gets

146
00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:49,839
Speaker 1: to the Patriots on those nights off, when he's out

147
00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:52,959
Speaker 1: there partying at those great Italian restaurants on the North End,

148
00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:55,199
Speaker 1: and he'll be the Tommy Cutlets character and say, well,

149
00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:57,800
Speaker 1: you're not from around here, but you're Tommy Cutlets, so

150
00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:01,680
Speaker 1: come on down all right now, final point, we head

151
00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:06,120
Speaker 1: now to Nashville. We go to Nashville where the captains

152
00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:10,160
Speaker 1: have arrived. That's right, it's that time of the year.

153
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:12,480
Speaker 1: Expect to hear a lot of this content in the

154
00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:15,320
Speaker 1: next couple of days, teams announcing their captains. The first

155
00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:19,719
Speaker 1: team up that would be the team in Nashville. I'm

156
00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:21,679
Speaker 1: sure Danny and Nashville is very excited about this. Soll

157
00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:26,520
Speaker 1: he lives in Miami. Among the seven captains seven, they

158
00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:31,319
Speaker 1: named seven captains. Among these seven captains for the worst

159
00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:36,760
Speaker 1: team in football, the Titans. They decided that rookie quarterback

160
00:10:36,960 --> 00:10:43,480
Speaker 1: cam Ward, the number one over in the twenty twenty

161
00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:47,160
Speaker 1: five collegiate draft out of Miami but mostly Washington State,

162
00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:52,320
Speaker 1: is a captain. So let's jump off on that. That's

163
00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:55,920
Speaker 1: good jumping off point. So let's discuss that particular story.

164
00:10:56,880 --> 00:11:03,400
Speaker 1: Rookie quarterback cam being named a team captain for the

165
00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:10,000
Speaker 1: Tennessee Titans is blank fill in the blank, all right,

166
00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:13,800
Speaker 1: So this is the the word I will use on

167
00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:19,160
Speaker 1: this is premature. It is a classic case of premature

168
00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:27,200
Speaker 1: coronation syndrome. And this is an example of given, not earn, given, noddern.

169
00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:27,640
Speaker 3: Now.

170
00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:31,400
Speaker 1: I am Benny Brightside. I want cam Ward to be

171
00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:33,880
Speaker 1: good because I have a feeling he's going to help

172
00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:37,320
Speaker 1: me out, that he's going to do things verbally that

173
00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:39,600
Speaker 1: are going to be good for talk radio. But the

174
00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:43,160
Speaker 1: only reason, the only way, rather the only way that

175
00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:45,800
Speaker 1: really translates, is if he's good. If he's terrible, we'll

176
00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:48,520
Speaker 1: just goof on him and he'll go away, and he'll

177
00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:51,440
Speaker 1: be working in insurance somewhere in a couple of years.

178
00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:56,080
Speaker 1: But Ward has been named the captain of the Tennessee

179
00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:59,080
Speaker 1: Titans before he's even learned how to parallel park. There's

180
00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:02,080
Speaker 1: no parallel parking yet in the NFL, and he doesn't

181
00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:04,960
Speaker 1: know how to parallel park. He hasn't done anything. He

182
00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:09,079
Speaker 1: hasn't had a chance to do anything. So my default position,

183
00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:12,679
Speaker 1: and this has been my default position on all rookie

184
00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:18,080
Speaker 1: quarterbacks since the beginning of time, that in two proven otherwise,

185
00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:22,240
Speaker 1: cam Ward and all rookie quarterbacks have more question marks

186
00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:26,680
Speaker 1: than the nemesis of Batman the Riddler. Remember the costume

187
00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:28,520
Speaker 1: the Riddler would wear. With all the other question marks,

188
00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:31,439
Speaker 1: there's a lot of questions. And so I understand what

189
00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:33,679
Speaker 1: they're trying to do, and this is not going to

190
00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:35,360
Speaker 1: be the only one. You'll see a bunch of other

191
00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:38,760
Speaker 1: like what the f was that? How's that guy a captain?

192
00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:43,160
Speaker 1: But they're trying to manifest that this man's a leader.

193
00:12:43,880 --> 00:12:47,920
Speaker 1: It's like some vision boards, like a vision board that's

194
00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:51,600
Speaker 1: taped to the dorm room wall and all that, Like

195
00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:54,840
Speaker 1: it's one of those phrases. I'm going to speak this

196
00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:59,680
Speaker 1: into existence, they say, and it's going to happen. It's

197
00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:03,439
Speaker 1: all all I have to do is speak this into existence.

198
00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:07,240
Speaker 1: That's it. And so the Titans acting a little bit

199
00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:12,559
Speaker 1: like a Disney movie. If you believe hard enough that

200
00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:18,320
Speaker 1: cam Ward will become the leader that we need. Generally speaking,

201
00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:23,360
Speaker 1: that's not how it works. That's not how any of

202
00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:27,240
Speaker 1: this works. So we can agree to differ on that

203
00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:30,640
Speaker 1: particular point. We'll see what happens. And I want to

204
00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:32,800
Speaker 1: point out again, I've got to get these monologues in

205
00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:35,680
Speaker 1: on these really bad teams, because once the season gets

206
00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:39,800
Speaker 1: going here, we'll not be talking about them unless it

207
00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:42,560
Speaker 1: gets even worse. They go, how low can you go?

208
00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:42,840
Speaker 3: Right?

209
00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:45,640
Speaker 1: How low can you go? How far down can you go?

210
00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:50,120
Speaker 1: And the suck Avenue? Where do Suck Avenue end? We'll

211
00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:53,040
Speaker 1: find out right, crank it up a couple of notches

212
00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:56,400
Speaker 1: and just see how far down Suck Avenue you can go.

213
00:13:56,440 --> 00:14:00,960
Speaker 1: It is the Ben Mahlor shown Malors show. As we

214
00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:04,199
Speaker 1: are just getting started here, it's hour number two. Later

215
00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:07,480
Speaker 1: this hour we will have Mallard of the third Degree.

216
00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:10,640
Speaker 1: We'll have the Inch to Trivia coming up. A little

217
00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:15,640
Speaker 1: bit later as well. We've got Bumpety Bump and the

218
00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:17,520
Speaker 1: candid Camera store. I'm gonna get to that right now,

219
00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:20,720
Speaker 1: the candid camera story. So, Freddie Freeman is a baseball

220
00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:24,040
Speaker 1: player for the Dodgers, kind of a big deal. He's

221
00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:25,440
Speaker 1: gonna be in the Hall of Fame someday, and won

222
00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:28,560
Speaker 1: a couple of World series, won some big honors individually.

223
00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:32,960
Speaker 1: And Freddie Freeman was caught on camera during the Dodger

224
00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:37,800
Speaker 1: Reds game back on Wednesday night at Chavez Ravine in

225
00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:45,280
Speaker 1: the dugout, and he was very aggressively pulling a nosehair

226
00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:48,960
Speaker 1: out of his schnaz and it was caught on camera.

227
00:14:49,840 --> 00:14:52,480
Speaker 1: And I don't mean just a little I kind of

228
00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:55,480
Speaker 1: grab the thing and then pull it lightly. I mean

229
00:14:55,640 --> 00:15:02,120
Speaker 1: a very aggressive snatchy of the nose hair with two fingers.

230
00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:06,000
Speaker 1: He had his thumb and then he had his pointer

231
00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:10,800
Speaker 1: finger and it he just ripped the hair right out

232
00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:14,600
Speaker 1: of his nose. Right now, I think that's supposed to

233
00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:16,760
Speaker 1: cause you to tear up a little bit. They moved

234
00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:19,800
Speaker 1: the camera away. They moved the camera away. I think

235
00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:22,600
Speaker 1: it generally leads you to sneeze, But I don't know

236
00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:24,840
Speaker 1: what happened. I'm also told they later on. I didn't

237
00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:26,680
Speaker 1: see this, but somebody sent me a text that they

238
00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:31,200
Speaker 1: showed Max Munci who was trying to find some gold

239
00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:33,840
Speaker 1: up his nostril. There so a very good camera work

240
00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:38,240
Speaker 1: at the Dodger game last night. But Freddy Freeman man

241
00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:41,240
Speaker 1: that is Hey, you're watching a ball game, it's the

242
00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:45,680
Speaker 1: middle innings. You know, you gotta get that annoying hair,

243
00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:49,120
Speaker 1: that loose hair in your nose and you just have

244
00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:51,680
Speaker 1: to rip it out. And he ripped it out and

245
00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:54,000
Speaker 1: it was caught on camera, and of course it went

246
00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:58,240
Speaker 1: immediately viral as people were fascinated that he did not

247
00:15:58,280 --> 00:16:03,080
Speaker 1: show any kind of pain when he ripped that thing

248
00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:06,760
Speaker 1: right out of his schnaz. It is the Ben Mahler Show.

249
00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:10,320
Speaker 1: As we continue on straight ahead, we mentioned it bumpity

292
00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:12,719
Speaker 1: the more popular things that we do. And it's nothing

293
00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:16,680
Speaker 1: like the Fifth Hour podcast where we do the mailbag.

294
00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:19,560
Speaker 1: Nothing like the mailbag at all. It's much different than

295
00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:22,040
Speaker 1: the mail bag. That'll be next our saleo to Lorena

296
00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:28,880
Speaker 1: FSR Tech Queen. She's enjoying some lady party, some pizza,

297
00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:35,000
Speaker 1: and we have Cooper Loop at a Bronco fan. Bronco fan,

298
00:18:35,119 --> 00:18:39,919
Speaker 1: your comments can and will be used against you in

299
00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:44,360
Speaker 1: the court of sports radio. And now back to it,

300
00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:47,520
Speaker 1: back to where we go. We started here with a

301
00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:52,919
Speaker 1: hodgepodge of a Mallard monologue bouncing around the Indianapolis Colts

302
00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:57,120
Speaker 1: and their GM Chris Ballard. We're not trailing Anthony Richardson.

303
00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:00,720
Speaker 1: You think of a team like the RAM said we'll

304
00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:03,160
Speaker 1: trade your first round pick for Anthony Richardson. They would say,

305
00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:06,240
Speaker 1: we're not trading Anthony Richardson. Yeah, he'd be on the

306
00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:10,000
Speaker 1: first flight out of Indy. He's gone. Tommy DeVito is

307
00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:13,800
Speaker 1: now a Patriot for now. I've been hearing from my

308
00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:15,960
Speaker 1: boots on the ground in Boston that the past or

Speaker 1: That is me reacting. Why dott as I watch Freddie

317
00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:45,760
Speaker 1: Freeman would rip out a nostril here and not even

318
00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:50,840
Speaker 1: bat an eyelash. Freddie has already torn out all his eyelashes.

330
00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:29,320
Speaker 1: improve under Super Bowl winning quarterback Joe Flacco? Well, Joe

331
00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:37,359
Speaker 1: Flacco clearly clearly elite, clearly clearly elite without without a doubt,

332
00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:39,920
Speaker 1: without a doubt. All right, let's go this is better

333
00:20:39,960 --> 00:20:44,840

335
00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:49,960
Speaker 1: other people on Let's go to Felexus, America's favorite drag

336
00:20:50,040 --> 00:21:00,159
Speaker 1: queen caller in Buffalo. Hello, Felexus oh Man, Hello, Damn.

337
00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:06,879
Speaker 7: Mary Allen, John boy, whoever who cares? Hey, that's Steve Forman,

338
00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:13,719
Speaker 7: He's sometime asmall That guy drives me nuts. And they're terrible.

339
00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:17,240
Speaker 7: They're looking they're gonna win six games this year. What

340
00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:19,200
Speaker 7: do you think about that? Ben? And you think I'm

341
00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:19,879
Speaker 7: right or wrong?

342
00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:23,239
Speaker 1: Who's going to win six games? I tuned you out

343
00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:28,040
Speaker 1: because you were boring me. The Colts win six games? Yeah,

344
00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:30,199
Speaker 1: I was just talking about the Colts. No, listen, the

345
00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:32,679
Speaker 1: culture in If you look at the Colts division, it

346
00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:36,760
Speaker 1: is the outhouse. The two southern divisions, the AFC South

347
00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:41,200
Speaker 1: and the NFC South are like a wasteland. Like there's

348
00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:45,520
Speaker 1: completely horrific divisions from top to bottom. But the win

349
00:21:45,640 --> 00:21:47,439
Speaker 1: total on the Colts this year, if you go by

350
00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:50,800
Speaker 1: the gambling odds in Las Wages, Nevada, which is the

351
00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:53,919
Speaker 1: Holy Grail as you know, the Colts win total is

352
00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:57,280
Speaker 1: seven and a half. I'm the one under seven and

353
00:21:57,359 --> 00:21:59,760
Speaker 1: that's that seems pretty high. Seven and a half for

354
00:21:59,840 --> 00:22:03,120
Speaker 1: the Colts with Daniel Jones at quarterbacks. So I'm going

355
00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:04,919
Speaker 1: under the window now.

356
00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:09,080
Speaker 7: The Colts are like the homeless people of the NFL.

357
00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:12,720
Speaker 7: As far as I concur they're no good, just like

358
00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:16,000
Speaker 7: like the people down there and check them though they're

359
00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:18,160
Speaker 7: no good. Nobody's no good anymore?

360
00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:21,840
Speaker 1: Who else? Who else do you held? Only you like

361
00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:23,120
Speaker 1: the bills that you hit everyone else?

362
00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:27,720
Speaker 7: Correct, Well, I can't like who do I like?

363
00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:30,359
Speaker 1: I don't know? I'm asking you a question like the

364
00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:33,439
Speaker 1: why would you like the forty nine ers?

365
00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:36,320
Speaker 7: I just like them? Why can't I like them?

366
00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:39,000
Speaker 1: Because you're a Bills fan? You can't have two teams.

367
00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:39,800
Speaker 1: You can have one team?

Speaker 7: Hey?

424
00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:14,000
Speaker 2: You?

425
00:25:14,080 --> 00:25:16,639
Speaker 9: The thing is, you know, I played some little league baseball,

426
00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:19,639
Speaker 9: and I played a year in high school and in

427
00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:22,080
Speaker 9: little league baseball, you know, you get the fundamentals, and

428
00:25:22,200 --> 00:25:24,280
Speaker 9: they tell you in the outfield, if you catch the

429
00:25:24,320 --> 00:25:25,000
Speaker 9: sly ball.

430
00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:27,399
Speaker 2: You use two hands. What does didn't use two hands?

431
00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:29,800
Speaker 2: You know, all these these outfielders now they're all out there,

432
00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:33,080
Speaker 2: nonchalant to throw the glove up and then oh yeah,

433
00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:35,119
Speaker 2: the ball is going to be right there. You're supposed

434
00:25:35,119 --> 00:25:36,720
Speaker 2: to use two hands when you're in the housefield you

435
00:25:36,800 --> 00:25:37,840
Speaker 2: catch the sly ball, all.

436
00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:40,919
Speaker 1: Right, So really the Yankees should hire you, Snooker. You

437
00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:43,120
Speaker 1: can go coach for the Yankees. You get the uniform,

438
00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:44,760
Speaker 1: you get to travel with the team. You can be

439
00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:47,439
Speaker 1: the defensive coach for the Yankees. How about that.

440
00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:50,720
Speaker 2: You don't understand I sent them. I send them text

441
00:25:50,760 --> 00:25:51,720
Speaker 2: messages all the time.

442
00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:54,159
Speaker 1: Hey, right, do they do they ever listen? Do they

443
00:25:54,200 --> 00:25:57,240
Speaker 1: ever respond? Snooker? When you send the Yankees messages.

444
00:25:56,800 --> 00:25:59,600
Speaker 2: To the you know, it's just like anything else. Hey,

447
00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:08,720
Speaker 2: the only sport that I actually like to watch is

448
00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:10,560
Speaker 2: baseball because there's no drama.

449
00:26:11,119 --> 00:26:14,760
Speaker 1: You know, there is drama in baseball. It's just it's

450
00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:18,360
Speaker 1: slow developing drama like it.

451
00:26:18,320 --> 00:26:22,000
Speaker 2: Ain't like the NFL and NBA drama that's every day,

452
00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:25,040
Speaker 2: every second, every minute. You know that's crazy.

453
00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:27,480

00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:51,440
Speaker 1: A great character. But that but what is the reality?

464
00:26:51,560 --> 00:26:53,119
Speaker 1: Explain to me. You were yelling at me that I

465
00:26:53,119 --> 00:26:56,639
Speaker 1: need to talk about snooker, and I I told you,

466
00:26:56,680 --> 00:26:58,320
Speaker 1: I said, you want me to lose my job. But

467
00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:00,920
Speaker 1: but why should Why are you against the NFL in

468
00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:01,359
Speaker 1: the NBA?

469
00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:03,400
Speaker 2: Go ahead, okay, okay, all right, all right, all right,

470
00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:05,600
Speaker 2: let me explain to you. Because the NFL is not

471
00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:09,240
Speaker 2: the NFL anymore, and the NBA is not the NBA anymore.

472
00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:11,800
Speaker 2: Every time you turn on the radio, go oh, he's

473
00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:15,360
Speaker 2: the greatest athlete in the world. That's hockey puff. Every

474
00:27:15,359 --> 00:27:18,480
Speaker 2: time turning around, these clowns are getting hurt. I remember,

475
00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:21,720
Speaker 2: the last time I saw an excellent football game is

476
00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:24,359
Speaker 2: when the Bears won the Super Bowl.

477
00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:29,440
Speaker 1: It was a football player, you know, forty years ago.

478
00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:31,359
Speaker 1: You haven't seen you have not seen a good foot

479
00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:35,040
Speaker 1: You haven't seen a good football football game in forty years.

480
00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:39,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, you get name one, you know, you get oh,

00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:43,400
Speaker 2: quarterback to wide receiver, Oh, quarterback to oh the running back.

482
00:27:43,440 --> 00:27:47,320
Speaker 2: Oh oh, I'm talking about football players.

483
00:27:48,040 --> 00:27:50,359
Speaker 1: Well, you know snooker. Well you know what happened snooker.

484
00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:52,320
Speaker 1: These guys get paid more money. Now you get paid

485
00:27:52,359 --> 00:27:54,480
Speaker 1: more money. Suddenly. You don't rub some dirt on it.

486
00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:56,320
Speaker 1: You don't get back out there and play. You don't

487
00:27:56,320 --> 00:27:58,399
Speaker 1: take a couple of advil and get back on the field.

488
00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:01,399
Speaker 1: Some ibuprofen, you know, farm grade. You don't do that.

489
00:28:01,440 --> 00:28:03,520
Speaker 1: You're just like, I'm giving a lot of money. I'm

490
00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:05,720
Speaker 1: gonna I'm gonna wait till I'm healthy to get back.

491
00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:08,080
Speaker 2: On the field. Okay, one one last thing that I'm

492
00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:08,760
Speaker 2: gonna get out of here.

493
00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:11,879
Speaker 1: You promise, you said, you promised me. This is your

494
00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:12,960
Speaker 1: last point. Snooker.

495
00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:16,080
Speaker 2: No, no, no, give me one second snooker. The game

496
00:28:16,160 --> 00:28:18,960
Speaker 2: was slucker. The table game was slicker. The table is

497
00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:23,000
Speaker 2: twelve feet long, six feet wide. The greatest game in

498
00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:26,639
Speaker 2: the world. Okay, anybody that wants to learn how to

499
00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:29,600
Speaker 2: actually play the game of pool. Most people play nine

500
00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:32,040
Speaker 2: ball and eight ball and all that other stuff. The

501
00:28:32,080 --> 00:28:35,159
Speaker 2: snooker is the game. It's a thinking man's game. Okay.

502
00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:37,240
Speaker 1: Well, when I was when I was, when I was

503
00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:39,400
Speaker 1: a kid, I used to eat the snickers, which is

504
00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:43,240
Speaker 1: like snooker, but it's a and it's very similar. You are,

505
00:28:43,840 --> 00:28:46,600
Speaker 1: It's similar. You know, it's the same thing. You know,

506
00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:50,400
Speaker 1: don't tell me one more thing. Do not tell me

507
00:28:50,480 --> 00:28:51,040
Speaker 1: one more thing.

508
00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:54,200
Speaker 2: No, no public relations and that's air force based.

509
00:28:54,480 --> 00:28:56,600
Speaker 9: If you ever want to go out and get.

510
00:28:56,480 --> 00:29:00,200
Speaker 2: The Grand tour they like celebrities, just called up the

511
00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:04,200
Speaker 2: public relations losses and if you're in Vegas, they'll slot

512
00:29:04,280 --> 00:29:06,320
Speaker 2: you in and they'll give you the Grand Tour. And

513
00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:08,080
Speaker 2: who knows if you get it at the right time.

514
00:29:08,480 --> 00:29:10,600
Speaker 2: You know, between you and Cooper Luke, why you guys

515
00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:11,560
Speaker 2: might get a free flight.

516
00:29:12,280 --> 00:29:16,480
Speaker 1: Oh all right, that would be fun, all right, all right,

517
00:29:16,520 --> 00:29:18,560
Speaker 1: Well I gotta go. Thank you Snooker, the great Snooker,

518
00:29:19,040 --> 00:29:21,080
Speaker 1: all right, go away north Las Vega. Let's go to

519
00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:24,800
Speaker 1: Andre in the CommonWell. This is a roller coaster. Do

520
00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:28,920
Speaker 1: you understand how exhilarating and sometimes terrifying these calls are.

521
00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:32,280
Speaker 1: Let's go now to Andre in the CommonWell. Hello, andre.

522
00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:37,120
Speaker 10: Ben, it's good to be with you this evening morning,

523
00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:41,000
Speaker 10: whatever you want to call it. Willis is gonna be

524
00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:44,000
Speaker 10: a little bit quiet right now, as you know, we're

525
00:29:44,040 --> 00:29:46,080
Speaker 10: shifting seasons here, getting to the end of the summer.

526
00:29:46,080 --> 00:29:49,760
Speaker 10: But he'll certainly be involved in and turning up as

527
00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:53,240
Speaker 10: we prepare for the next Mallet Palooza. He's going to

528
00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:57,280
Speaker 10: be working or working on our acts feverishly to get

529
00:29:57,280 --> 00:29:58,840
Speaker 10: close to the Jayscoop.

530
00:29:58,360 --> 00:29:59,600
Speaker 2: The reigning champion.

531
00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:04,880
Speaker 10: But you were noting Indianapolis cults. They're not champions of anything.

532
00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:08,360
Speaker 10: Never mind their decision in terms of Anthony Richardson and

533
00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:10,480
Speaker 10: whether they are going to be able to move off

534
00:30:10,520 --> 00:30:13,720
Speaker 10: of him, I e. The San Francisco forty nine ers

535
00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:17,080
Speaker 10: and how they made short work of Trey Lance. I

536
00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:20,040
Speaker 10: don't see it happening this season. I do see it

537
00:30:20,080 --> 00:30:24,160
Speaker 10: happening eventually if you can't beat out Danny Dimes, an

538
00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:27,280
Speaker 10: individual who was supposed to be the engine for the

539
00:30:27,320 --> 00:30:30,040
Speaker 10: New York Giants. Remember that mister Dave Oon and company

540
00:30:30,040 --> 00:30:30,520
Speaker 10: didn't want to.

541
00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:34,600
Speaker 1: Know they drafted. As you know, Andre So is a man,

542
00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:37,240
Speaker 1: a man of the world. You know, the Giants drafted

543
00:30:37,360 --> 00:30:41,160
Speaker 1: in large part Daniel Jones because he did cosplay pretending

544
00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:43,960
Speaker 1: to be Eli Manning. That's why he was drafted by

545
00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:44,560
Speaker 1: the Giants.

546
00:30:46,120 --> 00:30:48,680
Speaker 10: Yeah, he was an Eli impersonator. Never mind. You know,

547
00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:51,640
Speaker 10: there's a big difference between playing football at Duke and

548
00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:53,440
Speaker 10: winning a couple of games for the Blue Devils, who

549
00:30:53,480 --> 00:30:57,040
Speaker 10: are clearly a basketball school and Eli down there and

550
00:30:57,080 --> 00:30:59,280
Speaker 10: the SEC for old mis doing what he did. So

551
00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:02,400
Speaker 10: how drafted that high? Who knows? You know some of

552
00:31:02,440 --> 00:31:04,120
Speaker 10: the geniuses, uh do this?

553
00:31:04,400 --> 00:31:06,440
Speaker 1: That Dave? I think that might have been Dave Gettleman.

554
00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:08,440
Speaker 1: Was that a Dave Gettleman pick? Was he the GM there?

555
00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:10,000
Speaker 1: I think it might have been a Dave Gettleman pick.

556
00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:11,640
Speaker 1: I don't know. I have to check. They've changed gms

557
00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:13,440
Speaker 1: a lot there with the Giants because they're bad, and

558
00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:15,840
Speaker 1: bad teams changed yams, that's what happens.

559
00:31:16,080 --> 00:31:17,920
Speaker 10: So yeah, they were going to change gams this year

560
00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:20,280
Speaker 10: after they follow up finishing the bottom of the NFC

561
00:31:20,680 --> 00:31:23,280
Speaker 10: uh East, you know with the with the Eagles and

562
00:31:23,320 --> 00:31:25,280
Speaker 10: the Redskins. You know in the Dallas Cowboys. Who knows

563
00:31:25,320 --> 00:31:27,840
Speaker 10: what the heck they're gonna do? You know, I like

564
00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:30,320
Speaker 10: the Micah talk, you know, the fairy tales him going

565
00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:33,480
Speaker 10: to Green Bay. Not even Jerry would be would be

566
00:31:33,840 --> 00:31:36,240
Speaker 10: have the goal to send Micah not only just to

567
00:31:36,320 --> 00:31:38,920
Speaker 10: another contender in the in the same conference, but a

568
00:31:38,960 --> 00:31:42,440
Speaker 10: team that content consistently goes down to the Dallas and

569
00:31:42,840 --> 00:31:44,640
Speaker 10: steals their hopes and dreams. So that's a little bit

570
00:31:44,640 --> 00:31:47,280
Speaker 10: of leverage, don't see it happening with with with Micah

571
00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:49,920
Speaker 10: and green Bay. But Ben the situation with the coach.

572
00:31:50,320 --> 00:31:52,200
Speaker 10: I mean, at a certain point in time, you do

573
00:31:52,320 --> 00:31:55,520
Speaker 10: need to be the adult in the room and just recognize, listen,

574
00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:57,920
Speaker 10: you drank the kool aid. You did what you should

575
00:31:57,960 --> 00:32:00,600
Speaker 10: have done. Everybody said Anthony Richards Sain's the free athlete,

576
00:32:00,600 --> 00:32:02,640
Speaker 10: you know, and he can, you know, off the charts

577
00:32:02,640 --> 00:32:04,880
Speaker 10: in terms of athleticism, so on and forth, but there

578
00:32:04,920 --> 00:32:07,080
Speaker 10: were serious question marks about his ability to play the quarterback.

579
00:32:07,080 --> 00:32:09,120
Speaker 10: Everybody knew it, okay, but they were the genius at

580
00:32:09,120 --> 00:32:11,920
Speaker 10: that particular point in time. And you know, you just

581
00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:13,840
Speaker 10: have to take a step back, right the forty nine

582
00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:15,960
Speaker 10: ers for whatever you want to say about Kyle Shanahan

583
00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:17,719
Speaker 10: twenty eight to three, all the rest of that stuff,

584
00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:20,360
Speaker 10: all right, they you know, they step back and they say, listen,

585
00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:21,880
Speaker 10: if it's not going right, then we're gonna go with

586
00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:24,360
Speaker 10: mister irrelevant, the last pick in the draft. And you know,

587
00:32:24,360 --> 00:32:25,840
Speaker 10: because he's got the get, he's got the right stuff,

588
00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:27,520
Speaker 10: we're gonna build around him. We're gonna make we made

589
00:32:27,560 --> 00:32:31,440
Speaker 10: a mistake and move forward. But the Colts, I just

590
00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:35,160
Speaker 10: it's it's it's unfortunate frankly, you know once proud franchise

591
00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:36,920
Speaker 10: Peyton Manning, you know, in the Success and all the

592
00:32:36,960 --> 00:32:39,040
Speaker 10: rest of that stuff. But they got a quagmire with

593
00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:41,280
Speaker 10: this Anthony Richardson. He's not the guy every you know

594
00:32:41,600 --> 00:32:44,080
Speaker 10: it's over, but it does this unfortunate type of thing,

595
00:32:44,160 --> 00:32:46,600
Speaker 10: right when when it ends like this before it's actually ended,

596
00:32:46,840 --> 00:32:48,120
Speaker 10: you know. But as you said, you know, if the

597
00:32:48,120 --> 00:32:50,239
Speaker 10: eighty nine is going to come in, you know, and

598
00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:52,560
Speaker 10: then we know it's gonna go. Listen, Ben, For myself,

599
00:32:52,760 --> 00:32:54,560
Speaker 10: Willis is quiet night, but he's still in the mix

600
00:32:54,840 --> 00:32:56,959
Speaker 10: because you said he's been barking a little bit too much,

601
00:32:57,000 --> 00:32:58,760
Speaker 10: but he still has some barks. We're not yet the

602
00:32:58,840 --> 00:33:01,200
Speaker 10: labor day, so yeah, it's.

603
00:33:01,040 --> 00:33:03,120
Speaker 1: Just you know I'm getting if I get a headache

604
00:33:03,160 --> 00:33:05,760
Speaker 1: from the barking. I can't imagine somebody listening if I've

605
00:33:05,760 --> 00:33:07,880
Speaker 1: got a headache, you know what I'm saying. It's no

606
00:33:08,360 --> 00:33:11,640
Speaker 1: disrespect to Willis, because there are still people that claim

607
00:33:11,680 --> 00:33:14,840
Speaker 1: Willis is not real. We had a lovely lady call

608
00:33:14,920 --> 00:33:17,920
Speaker 1: up from Ventura in California the other night. She questioned

609
00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:21,560
Speaker 1: the integrity of Willis, doubting whether Willison I've seen photos

610
00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:24,960
Speaker 1: of Willis. You posted photos Andre of that nice looking

611
00:33:25,040 --> 00:33:27,240
Speaker 1: mutt there Willis. So I've seen the dog. But other

612
00:33:27,240 --> 00:33:29,960
Speaker 1: people don't agree. They think that's photoshopped or it's fake.

613
00:33:30,320 --> 00:33:32,680
Speaker 1: But I'll let you on that. But thank you Andre

Speaker 1: this person named blind Scott and it's very hard to

626
00:34:07,800 --> 00:34:10,000

627
00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:12,400

638
00:34:42,840 --> 00:34:46,359
Speaker 1: the Kansas City Chiefs. Now the fall out. And I'm

639
00:34:46,360 --> 00:34:47,880
Speaker 1: going to tell you a little more about this later

640
00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:51,680
Speaker 1: because there's still some some post mortem on the big

641
00:34:51,719 --> 00:34:55,200
Speaker 1: engagement news of the week. But there's a there's a

642
00:34:55,239 --> 00:34:58,760
Speaker 1: story out that they're they're calling the Taylor Swift Effect.

643
00:34:58,800 --> 00:35:01,840
Speaker 1: They're claiming one of the tabloids is claiming that the

644
00:35:02,040 --> 00:35:07,520
Speaker 1: franchise value of the Kansas City Chiefs since Taylor Swift's

645
00:35:07,640 --> 00:35:12,120
Speaker 1: arrival on the scene has gone up by how much

646
00:35:13,640 --> 00:35:16,759
Speaker 1: They're claiming that the value of the Chiefs has gone

647
00:35:16,800 --> 00:35:19,719
Speaker 1: up because of Taylor Swift, the Taylor Swift Effect, by

648
00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:27,279
Speaker 1: two point two billion. Just now, A man, I come on.

649
00:35:28,120 --> 00:35:30,560
Speaker 1: They claim the franchise went from having a fan base

650
00:35:30,600 --> 00:35:33,239
Speaker 1: that was mostly split fifty to fifty between men and women.

651
00:35:33,239 --> 00:35:35,719
Speaker 1: I don't I don't think that's right either. They now

652
00:35:35,840 --> 00:35:43,000
Speaker 1: claim that because of Taylor Swift, fifty seven percent female supporters,

653
00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:46,560
Speaker 1: which is unprecedented in the history of the NFL. I

654
00:35:46,600 --> 00:35:49,760
Speaker 1: also don't believe that. Here's why that of the fifty

655
00:35:49,760 --> 00:35:52,360
Speaker 1: seven percent, how many of those women are actually watching

656
00:35:52,440 --> 00:35:54,960
Speaker 1: Chiefs games and engaged in the Chiefs And how many

657
00:35:54,960 --> 00:35:57,400
Speaker 1: of those women are only paying attention to stories about

658
00:35:57,400 --> 00:35:58,280
Speaker 1: Travis Kelcey.

659
00:35:58,840 --> 00:35:59,480
Speaker 4: You know what I mean.

660
00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:04,640
Speaker 1: I'm saying, come on now, and to give her full credit.

661
00:36:05,640 --> 00:36:07,600
Speaker 1: You know, he said, well, Travis Kelsey has sold all

662
00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:10,240
Speaker 1: these jerseys, and you know, the NFL's gained a billion

663
00:36:10,280 --> 00:36:13,880
Speaker 1: dollars in additional lat advertising revenue. You're giving everything the

664
00:36:13,960 --> 00:36:17,680
Speaker 1: NFL's done, and you're crediting it to Taylor Listen is

665
00:36:17,719 --> 00:36:19,560
Speaker 1: clearly she's at it in by she's very popular. But

666
00:36:20,680 --> 00:36:21,640
Speaker 1: I'm not buying that.

667
00:36:22,280 --> 00:36:22,520
Speaker 3: I know.

668
00:36:22,600 --> 00:36:25,160
Speaker 1: Oh, you just just being a hater. Bad, No, I'm not.

669
00:36:25,239 --> 00:36:28,040
Speaker 1: I don't buye. The Taylor Swift alone is the reason

670
00:36:28,040 --> 00:36:30,040
Speaker 1: the franchise value of the Chiefs has gone up. Every

671
00:36:30,080 --> 00:36:33,000
Speaker 1: team's franchise value has gone up all right. Time out

672

Speaker 3: how Bill Miller and I are in the same place.

702
00:37:54,440 --> 00:37:56,480

Speaker 1: don't even from the Orioles in nineteen eighty nine. Nineteen

725
00:39:02,760 --> 00:39:04,279
Speaker 1: eighty nine all right, let's get to it. Here we

726
00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:06,760
Speaker 1: go blah blah blah blah blah blah Blahler how about

727
00:39:06,800 --> 00:39:08,920
Speaker 1: that to the third degree?

728
00:39:09,920 --> 00:39:11,759
Speaker 4: This is one big event.

729
00:39:12,040 --> 00:39:14,480
Speaker 1: Gets grilled crubl it.

730
00:39:14,480 --> 00:39:16,839
Speaker 11: It was reported on Tuesday that the Commanders have the

731
00:39:16,840 --> 00:39:20,120
Speaker 11: oldest fifty three player roster in the NFL, while the

732
00:39:20,120 --> 00:39:23,160
Speaker 11: Green Bay Packers have the youngest. Now, with both teams

733
00:39:23,160 --> 00:39:26,120
Speaker 11: featuring young up and coming quarterbacks, does this report prove

734
00:39:26,160 --> 00:39:28,200
Speaker 11: that the Packers are actually in a better spot right

735
00:39:28,239 --> 00:39:29,400
Speaker 11: now than the Commander.

736
00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:31,080
Speaker 1: Now, the numbers are skewed. I'll tell you why, Coop.

737
00:39:31,120 --> 00:39:34,200
Speaker 1: They've got Bobby Wagner, who's really old, Von Miller, your

738
00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:37,760
Speaker 1: guy who's even older, and Zach Ertz. So it skews

739
00:39:37,840 --> 00:39:41,919
Speaker 1: the whole, the whole roster math on that. I don't

740
00:39:41,960 --> 00:39:44,160
Speaker 1: put too much stock in the you know, the age

741
00:39:44,200 --> 00:39:47,000
Speaker 1: game and all that. That's why they have three guys

742
00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:49,319
Speaker 1: that are skewing the numbers. And so I don't think

743
00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:52,960
Speaker 1: the problem with the Packers is Jordan Love. That's the issue. Next.

744
00:39:53,800 --> 00:39:55,839
Speaker 11: So the Houston Astros are only one and a half

745
00:39:55,840 --> 00:39:57,960
Speaker 11: games ahead of the Seattle Mariners in the Al West,

746
00:39:58,520 --> 00:40:00,759
Speaker 11: but did also just get back three time All Star

747
00:40:00,840 --> 00:40:03,399
Speaker 11: Jordan Alvarez, Ben, do you think the Astros will hold

748
00:40:03,440 --> 00:40:04,120
Speaker 11: off the Mariners?

749
00:40:04,280 --> 00:40:08,000
Speaker 1: No, America needs Cal Roley, the big Dumper, to put

750
00:40:08,040 --> 00:40:11,160
Speaker 1: a big dump on the Astros. Everyone's pulling for the

751
00:40:11,239 --> 00:40:14,680
Speaker 1: team from the team from Seattle. So yes.

752
00:40:14,960 --> 00:40:17,360
Speaker 11: Next, Freddie Freeman was interviewed and asked about being the

753
00:40:17,360 --> 00:40:19,839
Speaker 11: only three hundred hitter in the National League. He said,

754
00:40:19,840 --> 00:40:21,520
Speaker 11: his goals to hit three hundred every season, but it's

755
00:40:21,520 --> 00:40:23,560
Speaker 11: getting harder and harder because pitching is too good.

756
00:40:23,920 --> 00:40:27,239
Speaker 1: Is that what's going on? Ben boo Hooo, listen, hitter's

757
00:40:27,239 --> 00:40:29,560
Speaker 1: supposed to get better too. That's an excuse. I don't

758
00:40:29,600 --> 00:40:31,880
Speaker 1: want to hear it. I want I need a second
