  Speaker 1: returns pretty good on the Benny Awards.
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: Which are on Sunday night, and we've got a lot
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: not going on. There's the online.
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: Vote on X for the social media contributor to the
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: other there's so many people that send random messages to
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: the show that are part of the show. That way
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: that we we had like over fifty people. I believe
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: that we're in the opening bracket. It's like the NCAA
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: tournament here. We had a lot of names, a lot
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: of names in there in the opening round, and we're
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: gonna have multiple rounds. So I know on the weekends,
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: you know some of you listen to the podcasts, so
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: you're gonna have to pay attention on the weekends and
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: online and vote, and we'll.
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: Get the rundown up. I have not gotten that up
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: at this.
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: Point, but the final a couple of rounds, it'll be
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: two more rounds of voting, and so just pay attention
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: to that. In fact, right now, if you're listening live,
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: I believe there's eight eight.
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: Or so minutes something like that to vote to get
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: your final votes in.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: And there's some of the categories on these social media
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: opening rounds social media Benny Award ballot. There's a couple
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: of them. They're very close. I could go either way.
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: Like the D D bracket I believe with that's the
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: one with Jill in Minnesota, Spocks Weed, Ozzie Waz and Eke.
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: In Roseville, Minnesota.
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: That is separated by just a few percentage points, as
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: is the E block which has Bozo the District Attorney,
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: o Cho Texto, Mister Irrigation, and the burner account in it.
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: So that's close.
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: Some of the other ones are are really wide open
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: or not wide open.
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: I should say the H block close.
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: That's got big names like Chris and de Moines far out,
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: Dave and Ohio not a burner, Rob the goat Man.
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: That's a close one. The J block with Justin in
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: Cincinnati and Andrea and moving Man, Matt and Andy Lionel Lakes.
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: So those are some of the names out there. So
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: check that out your few minutes left. So while I'm
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: yapping here, you go check that out and will change
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: your life.
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: In amazing ways.
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: Will not really, but it's just the opening round and
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: in order to win, I'm told you actually have to
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: win the opening round to win the other two rounds.
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: I believe it's two other rounds after this. I think
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: I did the math.
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: I probably screwed that up, but check it out, all right.
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: So our lead this out that's on X by the
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: way at Ben Mahler if you want to vote again,
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: literally just a few minutes ago.
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: And if you're listening to the podcast, you're cooked.
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: Our lead this hour from the Twin Cities, the Vikings
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: have added a fun size quarterback.
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: To their roster. Yes, so I assume you've heard by now.
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: Perhaps not.
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: We talked about this in a previous episode that this
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: was the most likely outcome. The most likely outcome a
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: rumor is just a fact that has yet to be discovered.
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: So Kyler Murray who visited the Viking He did some
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: zoom meetings, but he visited the Vikings in person, boots
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: on the ground, boots on the ground, and he signed.
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: So he visited the Vikings facility there and he had
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: a juicy lucy it was a kid size and then
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: he signed a one year contract.
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: So this came one day after he was fired.
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: Well laid off by the Cardinals because he was already
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: owed thirty seven million in guaranteed salary for the upcoming
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: season by Arizona. Kyler Murray signed for the veteran minimum,
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: which is one point three men. But how do you
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: pay your bills on one point three million? God bless them,
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: God bless them. So it's been described as a no
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: risk audition for the Vikings, a win win. Kyler Murray
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: gave a small quote, can't give a big one, said,
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: every year to me is a go out there and
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: prove it year. Okay, well, so unfortunate because he doesn't
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: prove anything all these years other than he's not that good.
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: So that is a good jumping off point.
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: Though, let us discuss the question how big of an
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: opportunity is this for Kyler Murray and the Vikings. So
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: I've got cheesecake factory, Unicorn Pool, and the Boogie Woogie,
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: and we'll put all these together and we're going to
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: make some smooth talk, all right. So a Kyler has
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: been able to hornswoggle his way in the NFL should
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: not have been the number one pick. I think he's
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: proven that with his play that he shouldn't have been
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: the number one pick. The Cardinals are run by a
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: bunch of dumbos, and they made him the number one pick.
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: And he's failed.
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: He's failed in Arizona, and now he goes to Minnesota.
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: To me, it's enormous for the Vikings because they've completely
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: botched this JJ McCarthy Thingam a jig. McCarthy looked dazed
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: and confused out there, look like a guy that should
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: be selling insurance somewhere now playing quarterback in the NFL.
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: And that was.
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: After a red shirt year. And you all told me,
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: you tell me every year they players who are quarterbacks
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: need to sit a year.
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: They need to learn. You tell me that every year.
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: And JJ McCarthy sat there, he was heard he learned
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: the playbook. I learned by just being around the team.
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: And it looked like he had never ever played football before,
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: like he won a raffle and say hey, you want
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: to come out, you want to play? Would you like
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: to play for the team? And they say, okay, I'll
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: come play for the team. Yeah, it's wild, it's absolutely so.
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: The Vikings are desperate. They need to.
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: Hit on a quarterback.
• 8:28
  Speaker 4: Now.
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: Do I think Kyler's gonna be the one?
• 8:29
  Speaker 4: No?
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: But the answer they needed, yeah, that wasn't the question.
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: The question was how big an opportunity is this for
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: Kyler Murray and the Vikings. What's bigger for the Vikings
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: and the problem is Kyler Murray. That's the problem, right.
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: You got to get him the booster seat. Get him
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: the booster seat there so we can see over the
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: offensive line. And this is a guy, the only player
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: in NFL history, the only one party of one who
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: needed a homework clause, needed a homework clause in his contract. Yeah, yeah,
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: just so he watched tape. He's more interested in All
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: of Duty then game film, and Call of Duty is
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: a great game. I don't blame him, but that video
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: game addition is a hell of a drug. So alligator
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: arms Murray, who isn't hardwired for greatness.
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: He's not.
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: He's hardwired for a headset and a joystick. He's hardwired
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: for that. And for the Vikings, it's it's like, well
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: we're famished now, right, Well walk in. It's like you
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: walk into the cheesecake factory and you're really hungry and
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: they order somebody that you didn't order it, that somebody
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: ordered it for you. They ordered you grill the sparagus
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: off the Skinny Delicious menu, and it just doesn't hit
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: the spot. I don't know who wants to grill the
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: sparagus rather vomit in my mouth and eat that disgusting
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: that doesn't hit the spot. And so you're still hungry,
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: and you wasted some money and said, wow, this is
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: not much money.
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: Kyler's getting the minimum.
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: Okay, one point three million in the NFL world is
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: not that much money. However, time is money and wasting
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: time and that's not the franchise savior.
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: The Viking's gonna be the worst team in the NFL. No,
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: they'll be competitive.
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: They have good players on the team, and Kyler usually
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: gets off to a good start. The problem is he
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: can't handle the entire season, and that's the issue. Murray
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: will be fine until the new call of duty drops
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: and then he'll he'll have to go to the bench
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: and they'll have to put McCarthy or somebody else in
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: At that particular point. That's the curveball. That's the curveball
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: with the player now flipping the page but not far.
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: The Vikings are positioning this Kyler Murray audition. They're setting
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: this up for a stiff quarterback competition for the incumbent
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: JJ McCarthy, and they'll.
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: Duke it out for the starting job.
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: Here is the little fella alligator arms Murray, who would
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: like you to know that he does he think of
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: himself as a backup or does he think of himself
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: as a starter.
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: Let's find out.
• 10:58
  Speaker 5: Do you view this as you're coming in at the
• 11:00
  Speaker 5: starting quarterback?
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: Do you give you this as a competition? Yeah?
• 11:03
  Speaker 6: No, Like I said, I'm just great for the opportunity,
• 11:05
  Speaker 6: grateful for the opportunity. You know, I look forward to
• 11:08
  Speaker 6: coming in and competing and getting to learn the offense,
• 11:10
  Speaker 6: getting to be with coach O'Connell. Obviously he's had a
• 11:13
  Speaker 6: lot of success. And again I'm just looking for looking
• 11:16
  Speaker 6: forward to the opportunity to come in here and competing.
• 11:19
  Speaker 7: All right.
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: So he didn't answer the question, but he wouldn't as
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: sign with the Vikings unless they had given him the
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: wink wink that he was going to start.
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: So the question, does this story about the.
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: Quarterback competition between Kyler Murray and JJ McCarthy and Minnesota
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: hold water? So I've already shown you I don't have
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: a good poker face. To me, this whole thing feels
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: like one of those inflatable backyard kiddie pools. The spray
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: and splash unicorn pool. It looks colorful, exciting. However, there's
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: a slow leak in the bottom and by noon the
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: kiddos are sitting in mud and the unicorns all deflated. Yeah,
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: so let's not pretend here. McCarthy last year was the
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: second worst quarterback in the NFL and the only reason
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: he wasn't the worst is because Shoulder Sanders sucked more
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: should Sanders Blue Moore in Cleveland. And that's the only
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: reason among qualified quarterbacks he was the only one worse
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: Shoulder Sanders. And that's mind you with a roster that
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: if you compare the Browns roster to the Cleveland roster,
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: it's a roster that's basically rodeo, drive worthy, veteran talent,
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: elite playmakers at the skill positions, good coaching, blah blah
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: blah blah blah blah blah.
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: So now it's.
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: Flip the coin. You got Kyler Murray who in Arizona.
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: That relationship was so toxic. How toxic was It was
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: so toxic that the Cardinals are eating how much money?
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: We told you the number, it's amazing, almost thirty seven million. Third,
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: I'm about thirty seven million. Those bozos are eating just
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: to move out of the apartment, break the lease thirty
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: seven million. That's the NFL's version of leaving all your clothes,
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: all your furniture behind after a divorce. And this competition
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: is like a race having Kyler Murray on one side
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: and JJ McCarthy the other. It's like going to watch
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: a race at Churchill Downs. You've got a on one side,
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: you've got a three legged Clydesdale and on the other
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: side you've got a miniature pony.
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: That's what you got. Right now, Kyler Murray is going
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: to start. He'd really have to f this up.
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: Like if he heard his thumb on the joystick, that
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: might affect him.
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: He might not be able to play.
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: You know, he could get some kind of hearing loss
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: from the headset being turned too high on the twitch
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: stream while he's gaming.
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: That's possible.
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: All those things are possible for sure, But in reality, Minnesota.
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: Doesn't really want a competition.
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: They want an exit strategy from JJ McCarthy.
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: I might as well trade him.
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: See if somebody's dumb enough to take him, You're not
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: gonna get much for him. But he can't play, so
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: who cares. See if some moron out there find the
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: greater fool to take him. But in the NFL, I
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: have learned over the years, and I think you know
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: this from paying attention as well.
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: You don't need me to tell you that.
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: Once the bubble of trust pops, once that bubble of
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: trust pops a quarterback, you don't patch it up.
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: You know, you replace it.
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: And that's what's gonna happen now the last word here,
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: speaking of bravado, we going now to San Francisco, where
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: the forty nine ers brought out the welcome wagon for
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: their newest pass catcher, Mike Evans. Mister Tampa Bay buccaneer
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: no more, said, I'm out of here.
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: I don't want to play with you bums.
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: Todd Bowles, you coach at Baker Mayfield, I'm.
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: Out of here. So he was welcome to the to
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: the Bay Area.
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: Evans specifically sighted and really blobbered all over his slabber
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: chop stop, slap, slapper all over. Coach Kyle Shanahan talked
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: about how George Kittle had recruited him and all this
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: and we get to play alongside Brock Purty. Those were
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: major factors in his decision to leave Tampa Bay, which
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: again is a vote of no confidence for Todd Bowles
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: and Baker Mayfield.
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: Like we told you, he suck it up to the
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: coach and the quarterback.
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: He left a coach and a quarterback because he doesn't
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: think those guys are any good.
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: Otherwise he would have stayed in Tampa, all right. And
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: he also gave us the.
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: Money quote Mike Evans, and if you saw this or not,
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: perhaps not. Mike Evans said in his introductory press conference quote,
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: I feel like they, meaning the forty nine ers, were
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: one piece away and I'm that piece close.
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: Quote question, what is the word?
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: We know there's a swell head here, but what is
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: the word for Mike Evans saying that he is the
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: missing piece for.
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: The forty nine ers?
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: So my word is sign as in the football version
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: of walking around with a kick me sign on it
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: tape to your back and just asking the bots and
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: the algorithm to start running.
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: Get that running start.
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: And now we do this boogie woogie dance every year,
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: and I'm here for it. I'm not against the boogie
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: woogie dance. I'll tear up the dance floor. I'm not
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: against it. A veteran will show up. It happens every
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: year look it up. I'm not making it up. Every
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: year there's a veteran that shows up and suddenly he says, hey,
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: I'm the final piece.
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: I've got the last piece to the jigsaw puzzle. I've
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: got it.
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: As if the forty nine ers were just wandering through
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: blindly the wilderness with no GPS, no cell phone reception.
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: You have had a GPS and saying, you know what
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: we need, as the forty nine ers, we need a
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: pastest prime wide receiver who occasionally plays well, but a
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: lot of the time is hurt and runs routes or
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: roots like he's buffering.
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: So hey, I'm here for Evans is a hype man.
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: Good, you know, he's like you go to the club,
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: the DJ there makes the nose, put your hands in
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: the air.
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, who put your hands in the air everywhere?
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: Now if it works, Oh, he's a prophet, he's a
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: profit got it done, He got it done. If not,
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: he's volunteering to be the main character in everyone else's
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: highlight reel. And the forty nine ers, they got to
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: hope that that electrical substation next to the practice field
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: can generate about thirty five extra points with Mike Evans
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: as Ernesto in.
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: The Bay and Terry in.
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: England and all these other guys are big forty nine
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: er fans know that gap.
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: That's the gap.
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: They lost by thirty five points against the Sea Aux
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: in the playoffs and then the Rams went out and
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: you know, we're blow for blow with Seattle. But that's
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: that's how far the gap is for the for the
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: forty nine ers. It is the Ben Mahlor Show. If

• 22:44
  Speaker 1: my my goodness, Late Night drug tester rights and says
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: Kyler Murray is a pr move by the Vikings. Will
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: be much easier for the kids of the team to
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: get a picture with Kyler since he can stand shoulder
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: to shoulder with him.
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: There you go.
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: Eileen in San Francisco says, do not sleep on the
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: over thirty for party.
• 23:07
  Speaker 2: I do like that old Niners logo though. That's cool.
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: You imagine if they brought that back, the people would
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: lose their mind. Is the old original Niners logo? Yeah,
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: but he's got he's got a gun and is that a.
• 23:20
  Speaker 2: Bottle in his I think he's on a bottle.
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: He's got a gun in one in his in his
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: right hand, he's got a gun and he's got a
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: bottle in the other the original Niners logo. And then
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: his hat is flying off and he's firing the gun too.
• 23:35
  Speaker 2: It's uh, that's solid. That's that's great. Remember they had
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: to get rid of.
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: The Washington Bullets because of if you were something were
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: so offended by that, and I'm sure now, I'm pretty
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: sure that when they got rid of that, that ended
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: gun and violence, right, that ended gun?
• 23:53
  Speaker 2: No, it did not eliminated it. Yeah.
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: I thought, well, you got rid of the name bullets,
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: people would stop, you know, killing each other. But apparently
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: I did not happen. A big disappointment. We were sold
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: to Billy Goods. What's up with that? Ryan in San
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: Diego says, since you brought up video games Kyler Murray,
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: I have great memories flashbacks to when Kyler Murray went
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: against Aaron Donald. I have never seen a quarterback so
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: scared of my life. He literally was urinating down his leg.
• 24:21
  Speaker 2: That's Ryan and San Diego. Yeah, I remember the shot.
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: The only thing I remember that playoff game is they
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: had a shot of Kyler Murray who got pulled out
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: of the playoff game for the Cardinals, and he was
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: sitting on the bench and.
• 24:34
  Speaker 2: It's like he had just lost a big.
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: Video game tournament. He was really really upset, like really
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: really upset. Noster Dinis writes in from Seattle. He says,
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: Mike Evans, with George Kittle and Christian McCaffrey and the
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: rest of their past their prime players should be called
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: the broken pieces. So he says, the broken pieces, Well,
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: that'll be that'll be what happens by four week five,
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: Fred in Nebraska rights and he says, Ben, you need
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: to put into perspective. Arizona drafted Kyler number one. Minnesota
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: drafted in the first round. Both Suck and Shirdeur Sanders
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: was the worst quarterback in the NFL, and he was
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: supposed to be drafted in the first round. Things that
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: make you go hmmm, nature boy rights and says, now
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: that you have mocked Mike Evans, he will most likely
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: be the guy to torch the Rams next year. No, no, no,
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: the Rams have the chief secondary. Now the Rams are
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: gonna be playing the chief secondary. So they're good to go.
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: They're golden baby. We got the old Kansas City secondary
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: there with the Rams. What could possibly go wrong? Eke
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: in Roseville, Minnesota rights and he says, the Vikings hired
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: a pediatrician to give Kyler.
• 25:48
  Speaker 2: His physical We yeah, that'll that'll happen.
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: Who else we have Malcolman Mike and coloradis is great,
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: openly monologue and fantastic analysis of the crier Murray.
• 26:00
  Speaker 2: I wonder how many times.
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: He'll mess up a game that will start that will
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: start to blame a long forgotten medical condition called atari
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: thumb for his performance.
• 26:15
  Speaker 2: Yes, that's if.
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: I remember that specific name. I do remember when I
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: was a kid and was in my generation.
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: The game's got a lot better.
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: Now they're ridiculous, but they went from like really terrible
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: to nice. He had to go to the actual arcade
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: back in those days, and that's how you did it.
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: Now you have it at your home. But my goodness,
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: Reggie writes and says, Doug Flutie was five to ten
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: and had a great career. Kyler Murray is five to
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: ten and got drafted by the team that's been trashed
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: for decades.
• 26:47
  Speaker 2: Fun fact, Well, what is your definition of great career? Reggie?
• 26:54
  Speaker 2: Can you define what makes a great career?
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: And like Doug a Canadian Football League legend, Doug Flutie,
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: was he a great NFL quarterback? Would anyone say that
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: Doug Flutie was a great NFL quarterback? Maybe I missed it.
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: I mean he was better than Kyler Murray, but Flutey
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: was great if you want him with the Calgary Stampeders
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: of the Argonauts or the BC Lions.
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: Like that's where he's at in the NFL.
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: H I had a couple I remember it was one
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: year in Buffalo, he had a good year, and I
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: don't really remember much else. I remember he went to
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: the Chargers the old San Diego Church. I'm ald to
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: remember the Chargers had. They were in San Diego, this
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: beautiful city right on the Pacific Ocean. They had a
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: loyal fan base, and then they left all that behind.
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: They didn't want those loyal fans. They said, screw the fans,
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: and they did. They screwed the fans.
• 27:49
  Speaker 2: Over don't remember being good with the Chargers.
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: I was out of San Diego by then.
• 27:57
  Speaker 2: I was in San Diego before that.
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: But I know he went to the Chargers like twenty
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: something years ago, early two over twenty years, early two thousands.
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but I only.
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: Remember one good year, and that was with Buffalo, and
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: it didn't he get replaced.
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: He might have had two games.
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: I remember one good year, and then there was the
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: playoff game which was the Music City Miracle, and Johnson replaced.
• 28:19
  Speaker 2: Him at quarterback. I remember. I remember that was a big,
• 28:23
  Speaker 2: big controversy. Again.
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: Reggie, you know your definition of good in my definition
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: of good, you said great. I don't go great, Yeah,
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: Andy and lion O Lakes, Minnesota says the Vikings only
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: signed Kyler for the moms and the kids.
• 28:44
  Speaker 2: No, no, that's what the Angels would do.
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: If Kyler Murray wants to play baseball, he can sign
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: with the Angels and he only has to play one
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: or two games a week because the Angels don't try
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: to win. They just want to make The moms don't
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: care about winning in Orange County.
• 28:57

• 31:14
  Speaker 10: The NBA difference.
• 31:15
  Speaker 2: There's way too much, very similar. Yes, all right, cut
• 31:18
  Speaker 2: it back.
• 31:18
  Speaker 4: Cool?
• 31:19
  Speaker 5: Cool how they could get rid of all of college
• 31:21
  Speaker 5: basketball from.
• 31:22
  Speaker 2: From by the way, college basketball shot is coming to
• 31:25
  Speaker 2: Sunday night. Make sure to fill out your brackets in
• 31:28
  Speaker 2: the bracket challenge. All right, Nedy please okay?
• 31:31
  Speaker 9: Number two, This one.
• 31:32
  Speaker 2: Is number two, number two.
• 31:36
  Speaker 9: NBA Basketball.
• 31:38
  Speaker 2: NBA.
• 31:39
  Speaker 9: Do you think the three point line needs to be
• 31:43
  Speaker 9: adjusted or revisited in some way like half certain times
• 31:48
  Speaker 9: when the three point shot that is available, or have
• 31:52
  Speaker 9: certain sections of the court where it is no three
• 31:56
  Speaker 9: point shot?
• 31:57
  Speaker 2: Well, you know what, you know, you know what I
• 31:58
  Speaker 2: like to see Eddie.
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: I would like to see somebody that has the balls
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: to challenge the system. There there is such dogma with
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: a three point shot. What would happen if somebody went
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: back to playing the old fashion way and wow, only
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: took occasional three point shots like they used to do
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: for the first twenty years with three point shots?
• 32:18
  Speaker 2: Like, what would happen if that would Would they be good?
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: Or would they It's like in baseball, everyone tries to
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: at home runs. What if somebody just tried to hit
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: a couple of base hits and played the old fashioned
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: small ballway, would they get smart? I'd like to see
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: an NBA team do it. So why don't we get
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: one of these terrible teams that he like the Brooklyn
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: Nets or you know, Utah Jazz and have them play
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: that one and.
• 32:39
  Speaker 2: Just see as a science experiment.
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: But I remember Phil Jackson and Phil that when he
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: was the last coaching the Lakers, he complained about that
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: when I was out there around them, and he was
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: like he was even like, well, letould just add a
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: four point shot because he was everyone You imagine they
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: added a four point shot. Everyone just shoot four point shots? Yeah,
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: I don't think you can get rid of it because
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: it's so ingrained in the game.
• 33:02
  Speaker 2: But I would like to see somebody try.
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: But I will go thumbs down to answer your question,
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: lorrain of thumbs up, thumbs down, three point.
• 33:07
  Speaker 2: Shot, yeay or nay.
• 33:08
  Speaker 10: I like the three.
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: Okay. All they do is shoot it. What about you?
• 33:14
  Speaker 5: Cool thumbs down. I don't think they need to revisit it.
• 33:16
  Speaker 5: I think it's fine.
• 33:18
  Speaker 2: Right, I asked one.
• 33:21
  Speaker 9: You know, I throw in a foodie at the end.
• 33:24
  Speaker 2: All right, here we go, I'm gonna I'm gonna win
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: this one.
• 33:28
  Speaker 9: Chili being chili beans or no chili, No beans and chili.
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: Oh. I have long advocated no beans. I like meat
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: based chili. I'm a big fan of meat based chili,
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: but I do not enjoy the beans.
• 33:43
  Speaker 2: I don't know why. I've just never never been my thing.
• 33:48
  Speaker 2: And since I was a kid, I just I don't
• 33:51
  Speaker 2: know the texture or whatever. I never really liked it.
• 33:53
  Speaker 2: What about you, Lorraina.
• 33:55
  Speaker 10: It is so great that you asked this question, because
• 33:57
  Speaker 10: today while I was driving to school, I was like, Wow,
• 33:59
  Speaker 10: I really want a Freedo pie. And then I was like,
• 34:01
  Speaker 10: but I gotta be specific about my chili because I
• 34:04
  Speaker 10: used to get the ones with the.
• 34:06
  Speaker 2: Beans in it.
• 34:07
  Speaker 10: And then I was like, but technically, for a Freedo pie,
• 34:10
  Speaker 10: you do the one without the beans.
• 34:14
  Speaker 2: I think it depends on what you eat.
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: A well made beef based chili is outstanding, Coop.
• 34:22
  Speaker 5: I'm generally in agreement with you, Ben. If if I'm
• 34:26
  Speaker 5: using chili as like a dip or on top of
• 34:30
  Speaker 5: a burger or a hot dog, then no beans. I
• 34:34
  Speaker 5: only want beans in my chili. If I'm just eating
• 34:37
  Speaker 5: straight chili, you know what I mean?
• 34:40
  Speaker 9: Makes sense, makes sense?
• 34:42
  Speaker 2: Gotcha?
• 34:43
  Speaker 7: All right?
• 34:43

• 35:11
  Speaker 4: It's not chili no more.
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: You know, that's a that's a bad take. There's a
• 35:16
  Speaker 2: there's a burger place, Joel. When you come to Joela

• 36:01
  Speaker 4: guy that the best position, the quarterback position. You gotta study.
• 36:05
  Speaker 4: How do you get a guy that doesn't study into
