- 3:10Speaker 2: hour from Minnesota. We'll get back to the Thursday night game.
- 3:13Speaker 2: Patriots win a workmanlike effort. They did not cover the spread,
- 3:18Speaker 2: at least the big spread. It was up to thirteen
- 3:20Speaker 2: and a half. But our lead is from Minnesota. Not
- 3:22Speaker 2: all is right on the shores of Lake Minnetonka. If
- 3:26Speaker 2: you did not see this, perhaps not the most decorated
- 3:30Speaker 2: in terms of money receiver in the NFL. Justin Jefferson
- 3:36Speaker 2: is not exactly getting it done at a high level
- 3:39Speaker 2: so far this season, at least not with his current quarterback,
- 3:44Speaker 2: and Justin Jefferson's saying that he is trying to work back.
- 3:47Speaker 2: He said, trying to work back to the level that
- 3:49Speaker 2: he reached a couple years back. In twenty twenty two,
- 3:53Speaker 2: which inspired him. That was the spark to get paid
- 3:55Speaker 2: the big money. Jefferson said he wanted to return to
- 3:59Speaker 2: when he called what he called his savage mode. Well,
- 4:03Speaker 2: I can just give you the whole sound bite, but
- 4:05Speaker 2: why don't we go to the audio tape.
- 4:06Speaker 1: Take a listen.
- 4:06Speaker 2: Here's Jefferson who wants to have a different mentality.
- 4:09Speaker 1: Here's mister Jefferson.
- 4:11Speaker 3: Take a list personally, mentally, just wanting to get back
- 4:15Speaker 3: into that mode into I like to say savage mode.
- 4:18Speaker 1: Savage mo. I mean, it's just going.
- 4:20Speaker 3: Out there with that fit mentality and just going out
- 4:23Speaker 3: there and just killing it.
- 4:25Speaker 2: I want to thank him for saying ef it and
- 4:27Speaker 2: not the full F word. Normally we have to bleep that,
- 4:29Speaker 2: but he said effort. We don't have to bleep effort.
- 4:31Speaker 2: He meant fun it. I think he meant fun it
- 4:33Speaker 2: right or fudget. He could have said fudget, but he
- 4:36Speaker 2: didn't say what you thought he said then.
- 4:38Speaker 1: But wait, there's more. Justin Jefferson Viking Receiver was asked.
- 4:42Speaker 2: Why things haven't been the way they were before.
- 4:46Speaker 1: Take a listen life.
- 4:48Speaker 3: You know a lot of different things going on in
- 4:50Speaker 3: my life and just wanting to get back to that
- 4:53Speaker 3: that kid phase of loving I still love football, but
- 4:57Speaker 3: overly loving football and overly loved just being out there
- 5:01Speaker 3: on Sundays and making the big plays and just being
- 5:05Speaker 3: a part of this great organization.
- 5:09Speaker 2: So he claimed, Jefferson that he was inspired because of clip.
- 5:13Speaker 2: I remember that famous catch he had, and I say famous.
- 5:16Speaker 2: It was a regular season game against Buffalo, but he
- 5:18Speaker 2: had that leaping one handed grab against the Bills.
- 5:21Speaker 1: Remember the catch. It was a pretty big deal when
- 5:23Speaker 1: it happened.
- 5:24Speaker 4: And so the anniversary of that it was this week,
- 5:28Speaker 4: and a bunch of people who were engagement farming sent
- 5:32Speaker 4: that out on social media and Jefferson saw it, and
- 5:35Speaker 4: so he brought that up as a point of reference.
- 5:38Speaker 1: Now we should point.
- 5:39Speaker 2: Out that in his last game Dud Jefferson against the
- 5:43Speaker 2: Baltimore football team JJ McCarthy, who's drowning at quarterback, two
- 5:48Speaker 2: of his passes that were intended for Jefferson were intercepted
- 5:53Speaker 2: by the Ravens, and on both occasions, not once, but twice,
- 5:58Speaker 2: Jefferson did not see him all that interested in making
- 6:03Speaker 2: a play on the defender who had intercepted the pass.
- 6:07Speaker 2: On the interception return, now there are many close observers
- 6:12Speaker 2: with magnifying glasses out that have seen signs.
- 6:14Speaker 1: I see the sign. They have seen signs that Jefferson
- 6:18Speaker 1: is not on board.
- 6:20Speaker 2: No, no, no, he's not on the happy train Drew. No, no,
- 6:25Speaker 2: he's not that interested in developing the young quarterback.
- 6:29Speaker 5: Now.
- 6:29Speaker 1: He attempted to push back on that. In fact, in
- 6:34Speaker 1: that same interview session, he called JJ McCarthy.
- 6:36Speaker 2: A quote great player and added he's a great quarterback
- 6:42Speaker 2: and he's a great kid. The word is great. Okay,
- 6:48Speaker 2: So that is a good jumping off point. Let's dive
- 6:51Speaker 2: into this one, the question what are your impressions of
- 6:56Speaker 2: Justin Jefferson not appearing to be all that happy with
- 7:01Speaker 2: the vikings and mainly with the quarterback JJ McCarthy. So
- 7:04Speaker 2: my observations on this, I've got babysitting Vermont, maple syrup
- 7:10Speaker 2: and mad ants, and we will combine all of these
- 7:14Speaker 2: things together and we are going to be in the
- 7:16Speaker 2: lap of luxury, is what We're going to be in
- 7:18Speaker 2: the lap of luxury.
- 7:19Speaker 1: So number.
- 7:26Speaker 2: So, Justin Jefferson can say all the right things, right,
- 7:30Speaker 2: I can say all the right things, but the man's
- 7:32Speaker 2: body language.
- 7:32Speaker 1: Remember most of communication.
- 7:34Speaker 2: Is body language, the body language is writing a completely
- 7:38Speaker 2: different book. It's a much different novel body language versus
- 7:42Speaker 2: the words that are coming out of his mouth. You
- 7:44Speaker 2: don't need to watch the All twenty two like JJ
- 7:47Speaker 2: and written. You don't need some nerdy analytical dork on
- 7:51Speaker 2: YouTube or buried behind a paywall on a shady football.
- 7:54Speaker 1: Website to break it down for you.
- 7:57Speaker 2: The lolly gagging, that's the word lolly gagging on the interceptions,
- 8:03Speaker 2: No hustle, no chase, just a kind of a shrug
- 8:06Speaker 2: emoji type effort. Day give day, give it. That is
- 8:12Speaker 2: a superstar saying I'm really not into this.
- 8:17Speaker 1: I'm not into it.
- 8:18Speaker 2: Jefferson knows what it's like to have a quarterback that
- 8:23Speaker 2: can get him the ball on a regular basis and
- 8:25Speaker 2: provide him the opportunity to become an elite wide receiver
- 8:27Speaker 2: and all that stuff. He was elite and a couple
- 8:32Speaker 2: of years there he was a walking cheat code for
- 8:34Speaker 2: the Minnesota Vikes. Right now, when JJ McCarthy is quarterbacking,
- 8:40Speaker 2: he's giving that Onendell Robinson level production, giving the Michael
- 8:46Speaker 2: Pittman junior level production. Jefferson producing in four starts with
- 8:52Speaker 2: red shirt rookie JJ McCarthy an average of four point
- 8:57Speaker 2: two catches per game for fifty two yards cards per game. Now,
- 9:02Speaker 2: that's fine if you're Wanda Robinson. Robins is a good player,
- 9:06Speaker 2: is not a great player. Michael Pittman Junior a good player,
- 9:08Speaker 2: not a great player. It's fine for those guys. However,
- 9:11Speaker 2: when you're the guy that got the one hundred and
- 9:13Speaker 2: forty million dollar contract, you're supposed to be the greatest
- 9:16Speaker 2: player on the planet, and it doesn't look that way
- 9:19Speaker 2: right now.
- 9:20Speaker 6: It's bad.
- 9:21Speaker 2: It's real bad. When McCarthy's out there. I say, it's
- 9:24Speaker 2: a small sample size, but we have a show to
- 9:26Speaker 2: do today. And this is the vibe I got from
- 9:30Speaker 2: Jefferson watching some of those clips from the Baltimore game,
- 9:33Speaker 2: is I don't like the new toy that I got.
- 9:37Speaker 1: I don't like it.
- 9:38Speaker 2: I don't you know, the energy like when a kid
- 9:40Speaker 2: gets a toy on Christmas or honok or something. They
- 9:42Speaker 2: open it up and it's like the wrong gift, and
- 9:46Speaker 2: do we have the receipt I got to return this,
- 9:48Speaker 2: don't I don't want to.
- 9:49Speaker 1: Now, the Vikings problem.
- 9:51Speaker 2: Is that they obviously drafted McCarthy in the first round.
- 9:55Speaker 1: There was a lot of moving parts to get McCarthy.
- 9:57Speaker 2: Let some people go to get him and all that stuff,
- 10:00Speaker 2: and they need a booster rocket to help boost the
- 10:05Speaker 2: quarterback at this point, and instead Jefferson's giving the vibe
- 10:10Speaker 2: of why am I babysitting this guy again? Like I
- 10:13Speaker 2: got paid, this is the prime of my career. I'm
- 10:15Speaker 2: never going to be better than I am right now,
- 10:18Speaker 2: and you're cramping my style because this guy didn't know
- 10:20Speaker 2: what he's doing, and so that's it. He's twenty six.
- 10:24Speaker 2: He's giving off the vibes like he's middle aged. Body
- 10:26Speaker 2: language says I'm grumpy. Body language says I'm annoyed. Body
- 10:30Speaker 2: language says I'm not hiding it. And then he comes
- 10:33Speaker 2: out with the he's a great quarterback, great kid line.
- 10:38Speaker 2: Now the problem with that is too many greats. He
- 10:42Speaker 2: kept repeating the word great. So it looks to me,
- 10:45Speaker 2: after a minute long deliberation of the available evidence, like
- 10:49Speaker 2: he was pulled aside by the PR people the PR war,
- 10:53Speaker 2: trying to win the PR culture war.
- 10:55Speaker 1: The spin doctor said, all right, listen, let me give
- 10:57Speaker 1: you some flashcards.
- 10:58Speaker 2: Here's what you say about the quarterback and the media
- 11:02Speaker 2: will be fine. Just say this, and if you don't
- 11:05Speaker 2: say this. You're gonna start a wildfire, and we don't
- 11:06Speaker 2: want to start a wildfire.
- 11:07Speaker 1: So just just go through the point by point. Use
- 11:09Speaker 1: the word great. Just call him great, great, great, great great.
- 11:11Speaker 2: Okay, well call him great, great, great great, great, great player,
- 11:13Speaker 2: great quarterback, great kid great. You know, makes a mean omelet,
- 11:17Speaker 2: really good omelet. Toast not so good. He's working on
- 11:20Speaker 2: the toast. But he's working.
- 11:22Speaker 1: He's doing. He's doing as good as he can do.
- 11:24Speaker 1: Bacon needs a little work as well. The bacon needs
- 11:27Speaker 1: a little work. But listen, here, here's the deal.
- 11:30Speaker 2: The tape does not lie Justin Jefferson when he's played
- 11:35Speaker 2: with McCarthy. There are plenty of eclips. You can find them yourself.
- 11:38Speaker 2: Even the blind listeners like Stevie Meatballs can see them.
- 11:41Speaker 2: Justin Jefferson is disconnected, looks a little checked out there.
- 11:45Speaker 2: And so you really don't need to bring in some
- 11:49Speaker 2: kind of special investigator to decode what's going on. It's
- 11:52Speaker 2: not much of a mystery. Jefferson is not happy doesn't
- 11:55Speaker 2: mean he's good. To demand a trade doesn't mean that.
- 11:57Speaker 1: It just means he's frustrated with JJ McCarthy. He's annoyed.
- 12:01Speaker 2: With his lack of opportunity, and the more he says
- 12:06Speaker 2: everything's fine, the louder the body language gets that it's
- 12:11Speaker 2: not fine, and he's even though financially living a high
- 12:15Speaker 2: on the hog, not so much the rest of the way.
- 12:18Speaker 5: Now.
- 12:18Speaker 2: Meanwhile, to Seattle, we go, what kind of it's actually
- 12:23Speaker 2: an LA storyline. The Rams and Seahawks get together on
- 12:25Speaker 2: Sunday and a massively important NFC West slobber knocker.
- 12:31Speaker 1: That matchup not just a game, it's a slobber knocker.
- 12:35Speaker 2: So the Rams, we have learned, are planning a full
- 12:38Speaker 2: blown Hallmark movie on the JumboTron as a tribute for
- 12:43Speaker 2: the emotional return of Cooper Cup.
- 12:46Speaker 1: Yeap oh, so sad he.
- 12:48Speaker 2: Now plays with the Seahawks, not much because he's often
- 12:51Speaker 2: hurt and Cooper Cup was asked about the Rams showing
- 12:55Speaker 2: a tribute video and what did he say?
- 13:00Speaker 1: What did Cooper Cup say? Hmmm, what do you think
- 13:03Speaker 1: he said?
- 13:04Speaker 2: Well, he said, I don't know, I didn't die. I'm here,
- 13:10Speaker 2: is what he said. It's a great quote. It's a
- 13:13Speaker 2: really good quote. I didn't die, he said, I don't know,
- 13:16Speaker 2: I didn't die. I'm still here, all right. Questioned how
- 13:20Speaker 2: did you react to that clip? The money quote from
- 13:24Speaker 2: wide receiver Cooper Cup letting the Rams know that his
- 13:28Speaker 2: heart is still ticking.
- 13:30Speaker 1: What's good.
- 13:31Speaker 2: We're happy that his heart is still ticking. He does
- 13:33Speaker 2: not need an ambulance. There's no need for paramedics to
- 13:36Speaker 2: come and help him out.
- 13:37Speaker 1: I didn't die. That is what a line. It's perfection.
- 13:40Speaker 1: He nailed it. He nailed it. That's exactly how these
- 13:43Speaker 1: tribute videos feel. If you've ever.
- 13:45Speaker 2: Seen one, and how could you miss them? It's I've
- 13:49Speaker 2: been to a lot of funerals as I've gotten older,
- 13:51Speaker 2: a lot of people have dropped dead in my life,
- 13:53Speaker 2: and I've seen a lot of these videos and stuff.
- 13:55Speaker 1: And it's like that.
- 13:57Speaker 2: It's like you're memorializing a player who's about to go
- 14:00Speaker 2: out there and play. It's like, so, I say bravo
- 14:02Speaker 2: to Cooper Cup. The man spent eight years with the Rams.
- 14:05Speaker 2: He could ram it all day, could ram it all night.
- 14:07Speaker 2: He had that cheat code season back in twenty twenty one.
- 14:11Speaker 2: Offensive Player of the Year almost won an MVP.
- 14:14Speaker 1: Was unstoppable, a great RAM great player not anymore. It
- 14:18Speaker 1: is washed up.
- 14:19Speaker 2: But regardless of that, he's also a grown adult with
- 14:23Speaker 2: a pulse, as he pointed out, very much alive. And
- 14:25Speaker 2: he doesn't need confetti, Cannons doesn't need the party favors
- 14:31Speaker 2: and all that stuff, the big screen validation because I
- 14:36Speaker 2: used to work there, like I used to work. The
- 14:39Speaker 2: league has learned as a business, the NFL. They've turned
- 14:43Speaker 2: this into the Vermont maple syrup business with lots of sap,
- 14:48Speaker 2: lots of stapp. Now, I do give the Cowboys credit
- 14:50Speaker 2: because they didn't do that when Micaeh Parsons came back.
- 14:53Speaker 2: But very rarely does this not happen? Very rarely is
- 14:57Speaker 2: this not happen. Every guy to the fact that leaves
- 15:00Speaker 2: town ends up getting a video package on the scoreboard,
- 15:06Speaker 2: roll the montage, roll them on. It's smaltzy. It's the
- 15:11Speaker 2: smaltzy inflation, is what it is. Everyone needs a cake
- 15:15Speaker 2: and balloons and a little social media video. And they
- 15:19Speaker 2: got to get Morgan Freeman to narrate their goodbye. Let's
- 15:24Speaker 2: pay Morgan Freeman a couple of grand and we'll do
- 15:26Speaker 2: a very emotional read and enough already. Now wait, wait
- 15:32Speaker 2: till the guy retires. If you want to do something
- 15:34Speaker 2: like that, bring him back. You can cry and save
- 15:37Speaker 2: the nostalgia for the main the main event, which is
- 15:42Speaker 2: when the career is over and all stuff. And it's
- 15:44Speaker 2: story odd because I think Cooper Cup's gonna play.
- 15:47Speaker 1: He has been injured.
- 15:48Speaker 2: But if he does play, assim he was circling that
- 15:52Speaker 2: game on the schedule, He's gonna try to get one
- 15:53Speaker 2: hundred yards and a touchdown and all that stuff. And
- 15:55Speaker 2: he had the proper response, simple, dry, perfect, I'm not
- 16:00Speaker 2: ye translation, you play the game to win the game.
- 16:06Speaker 1: Knock off the drama.
- 16:08Speaker 7: O rama.
- 16:09Speaker 1: And he's right, He's right, hard is still ticking. The rams.
- 16:13Speaker 2: Don't need to throw him a little ash scattering at
- 16:16Speaker 2: sea ceremony just because he happens to be playing for
- 16:20Speaker 2: the Seahawks. And let's put the pause on the JumboTron
- 16:24Speaker 2: sympathy parade. We're good, all right now, final point, We
- 16:28Speaker 2: go back to the Twin Cities basketball story. Appearing on
- 16:31Speaker 2: some fledgling NBA podcast, The very rarely interesting coach of
- 16:36Speaker 2: the basketball team in Minnesota, Chris Finch.
- 16:40Speaker 1: Is his name. He's the tim tim Wolves coach.
- 16:47Speaker 2: So Chris Finch was discussing the art of podcasting on
- 16:51Speaker 2: a podcast and somebody took a stray shot. Yeah, collateral
- 16:59Speaker 2: damage Yep, down range that person.
- 17:04Speaker 8: J. J.
- 17:06Speaker 2: Reddick, Chris Finch said, quote on a podcast about podcasting.
- 17:12Speaker 2: He said, quote, I mean it'll qualify you to coach
- 17:16Speaker 2: the Lakers, Chris Finch said in a deadpan delivery. And
- 17:23Speaker 2: it's no secret that Reddick JJ Reddick the most pompous
- 17:28Speaker 2: man in the world. If you don't believe me, just
- 17:29Speaker 2: listen to him talk. With no prior coaching experience. JJ
- 17:33Speaker 2: Redick was hired last before last season by the Lakers
- 17:37Speaker 2: ahead of the twenty four to twenty five campaign, and
- 17:40Speaker 2: he had spent the years since retirement primarily as a broadcaster,
- 17:46Speaker 2: but mostly as a podcaster, and he hosted a podcast
- 17:50Speaker 2: alongside Ron James and they were podcast buddies.
- 17:56Speaker 1: And then he gets the job.
- 17:57Speaker 2: So the question, give me your reaction to a sitting
- 18:02Speaker 2: NBA coach Chris Finch of the Timberwolves taking a jab
- 18:10Speaker 2: actually more than a job at JJ Reddick's resume. So
- 18:14Speaker 2: my reaction to this is how sweet it is? How
- 18:18Speaker 2: sweet it is? Uh man, that's how you do it.
- 18:21Speaker 2: That is a professional assassination, is what that is. You're
- 18:25Speaker 2: talking about podcasting and then boom goes to dynamite.
- 18:31Speaker 1: You'll qualify it to coach the Lakers.
- 18:33Speaker 2: You do that, oh podcast, and that's not again, not
- 18:35Speaker 2: even a jab.
- 18:36Speaker 1: That is a big jug of tru serum and.
- 18:39Speaker 2: A body blow, body blow, body blow. The Lakers turned
- 18:42Speaker 2: the sport into a content house. Forget about paying dues
- 18:47Speaker 2: in Sioux Falls. Forget about those long nights with the
- 18:50Speaker 2: matt Ants on the bus or the Vipers.
- 18:53Speaker 1: No, no, no, no no.
- 18:54Speaker 2: All you have to do is have a podcast with
- 18:56Speaker 2: Lebron and you talk about to pick and roll, even
- 19:00Speaker 2: if you're picking your nose. You talk about the pick
- 19:02Speaker 2: and roll angles for five or six episodes of the podcast,
- 19:06Speaker 2: and abro kadabra, hocus pocus presto, here are the keys
- 19:12Speaker 2: to a franchise. It absolutely humiliated the coaching brotherhood. It
- 19:19Speaker 2: did you know a bunch of dudes that are grinding
- 19:23Speaker 2: it out in the G League in high school sized gymnasiums,
- 19:28Speaker 2: eating lukewarm chicken tenders out of a steam tray at
- 19:32Speaker 2: one in the morning in Fort Wayne with America's favorite
- 19:36Speaker 2: crossing guard in Fort Wayne while breaking down film on
- 19:40Speaker 2: a cracked iPad.
- 19:42Speaker 1: And then you've got J. J.
- 19:44Speaker 2: Reddick, who shows up because he brought Lebron some homemade
- 19:49Speaker 2: chocolate chip cookies before they recorded the podcast, and Lebron
- 19:53Speaker 2: loves chocolate chip cookies.
- 19:56Speaker 1: Like, what are we doing?
- 19:57Speaker 2: Seriously, like Finch said, what everyone else in the league
- 20:01Speaker 2: was whispering, what most knowledgeable people understand. JJ Reddick him
- 20:08Speaker 2: taking over his job with the Lakers is embarrassing.
- 20:13Speaker 5: Right.
- 20:13Speaker 2: The Lakers didn't care. They were like, okay, we'll emasculate ourselves.
- 20:18Speaker 2: We'll emasculate the entire NBA. In so many words, said
- 20:23Speaker 2: experience is optional, friendship with the stars mandatory. And this
- 20:28Speaker 2: is anyone else that does a podcast with Lebron.
- 20:30Speaker 1: Those are the other candidates.
- 20:32Speaker 2: Now, Sigmund Freud was right, every joke carries some truth.
- 20:35Speaker 2: Now I imagine that Chris Finch will say, hey, I was
- 20:38Speaker 2: just kidding the Timberwolves coach. But again, Sigmund Freud, every
- 20:42Speaker 2: joke carries some truth in it. So Finch did not
- 20:45Speaker 2: accidentally say that that was a coded message. Dots and dashes,
- 20:50Speaker 2: dots and dashes. The whole thing was a circus clown show,
- 20:57Speaker 2: and we know it.
- 20:58Speaker 1: We know and listen.
- 20:59Speaker 2: Good for JJ getting to the playoffs or whatever and
- 21:02Speaker 2: then playing all of his starters the entire second half.
- 21:04Speaker 2: It doesn't change the optics. And by the way, I
- 21:09Speaker 2: have a path to salvation, big news.
- 21:12Speaker 1: Zo and announce on the radio that I am planning on.
- 21:14Speaker 2: Starting a podcast with ant man Anthony Edwards, and I'll
- 21:19Speaker 2: be doing that, and then I'll.
- 21:21Speaker 1: Be coaching the Minnesota Timberwolves.
- 21:23Speaker 2: I make some really good cookies, so I'm gonna bring
- 21:25Speaker 2: those to the podcast, and then Anthony Edwards is gonna say,
- 21:28Speaker 2: I want that guy to coach me, and they'll hand
- 21:30Speaker 2: me a clipboard with the Timberwolves logo on.
- 21:33Speaker 1: It, and there we go. What's that?
- 21:35Speaker 2: Oh, you're saying that only works for the Lakers. Okay,
- 21:38Speaker 2: all right, that's fine. It is the Ben Mahlor Show.

- 24:13Speaker 2: we bounced around on the top of the hour Mallar monologue,
- 24:17Speaker 2: a couple of stories that caught my attention. Justin Jefferson
- 24:21Speaker 2: not very happy with j J. McCarthy right now and
- 24:26Speaker 2: Shane and Moyes says Ben, I'd love to make a
- 24:28Speaker 2: bet with you on the Rams versus Seahawks thing this weekend,
- 24:32Speaker 2: but I'm not sure a hat versus golden ticket bet
- 24:37Speaker 2: is anything you can you care about? Go Hawks, Shane.
- 24:43Speaker 2: I am obsessed with hats.
- 24:46Speaker 1: Shane.
- 24:46Speaker 2: I will certainly make a wager if you would like
- 24:51Speaker 2: about a hat. I am open to doing that. It's
- 24:54Speaker 2: got to be a hat I don't have. I don't
- 24:56Speaker 2: need a Seahawk hat.
- 24:57Speaker 1: I'm good on that. I don't need that. I'm a
- 24:59Speaker 1: RAM fan. I'll take the Rams now. Is the point
- 25:03Speaker 1: spread involved here?
- 25:04Speaker 2: Shane in the more and that's what I need to know,
- 25:06Speaker 2: Andy and Lionel Lakes Minnesota, says Ben. I've got a
- 25:09Speaker 2: clipboard and a few crayons in the truck here and
- 25:12Speaker 2: a couple of Timberwolve stickers at home. I think we
- 25:16Speaker 2: can get you in with an endorsement from the k
- 25:19Speaker 2: fan boys.
- 25:20Speaker 1: You're you're a shoe in for the job. Well, thank you.
- 25:24Speaker 2: Yeah, that's the path, man, that is the path. That's
- 25:28Speaker 2: the path to do it. Rebecca says, my late father
- 25:32Speaker 2: had a long career in radio, So maybe I can
- 25:35Speaker 2: coach a pro bouncy ball team too, Rebecca.
- 25:37Speaker 1: I think that's a great idea.
- 25:39Speaker 2: You pick whatever team you want, Rebecca, I'm gonna I
- 25:41Speaker 2: think I'm gonna coach Minnesota because my plan is to
- 25:43Speaker 2: do a podcast with Anthony Edwards and I'll be the
- 25:46Speaker 2: guy that tosses to him and makes them sound good
- 25:49Speaker 2: and then and then I'll do the coach and then
- 25:51Speaker 2: I'll be that and you can pick another team, Rebecca,
- 25:53Speaker 2: because I'm gonna coach the Timberwolves.
- 25:57Speaker 1: That's what I'm going to do. Yeah, just Josh says.
- 26:02Speaker 2: The last time Robbie, the Mariner fan said no justice,
- 26:06Speaker 2: no peace, and all out brawl broke out at the
- 26:09Speaker 2: Cracker barrel, an elderly woman was assaulted with a pineapple.
- 26:14Speaker 1: That's just Josh.
- 26:15Speaker 2: Yes, Robbie a little testy about cal Raley not winning
- 26:19Speaker 2: the MVP. If only the Mariners had pinstripes, he would
- 26:22Speaker 2: have won the v problem is they don't have an
- 26:25Speaker 2: interlocking n Why and they don't they don't have.
- 26:29Speaker 1: The pin stripes.
- 26:30Speaker 2: Other than that, an MVP type season for for good
- 26:34Speaker 2: old cal Raley. Let's go to the phones and we've
- 26:37Speaker 2: got lame jokes. Next hour, Mallard of the third degree.
- 26:40Speaker 2: Later this hour, let's say hello to Jed who fled? Hello,
- 26:44Speaker 2: Jed who fled?
- 26:47Speaker 5: Ben I love how on my overcast podcast app it
- 26:52Speaker 5: has as your pitch t icon. There's a there's a
- 26:55Speaker 5: line in Ricky Bobby's Talladaga Nights. He says, I'm going
- 26:59Speaker 5: to pass out because this is not judgment. I'm going
- 27:01Speaker 5: to pass out because the gayness your shirt has no
- 27:03Speaker 5: insignia on it, and your hat, the Man of all
- 27:06Speaker 5: hats has no logo on it.
- 27:08Speaker 2: Well, okay, time out, let me explain. Okay, So the
- 27:12Speaker 2: hat was the photo they used. They asked me to
- 27:16Speaker 2: send a photo in because every time they take photos,
- 27:20Speaker 2: I look like I'm.
- 27:20Speaker 1: A blue whale. I look youmongous. So they asked me
- 27:24Speaker 1: some wales.
- 27:25Speaker 2: No, so they asked me, they've only done a few
- 27:28Speaker 2: photo shoots here that I look terrible in every photo
- 27:30Speaker 2: they've ever done with me, And.
- 27:31Speaker 1: So they asked me to send a photo.
- 27:33Speaker 2: So I send them a couple of photos and the
- 27:35Speaker 2: one I sent that's a Dodger hat that I have.
- 27:38Speaker 1: But apparently their word, they're gonna get sued.
- 27:40Speaker 2: So they photo shopped out the logo on the hat,
- 27:43Speaker 2: and there was something on the shirt which they also
- 27:45Speaker 2: got rid of as well, So it's all been photoshopped
- 27:48Speaker 2: but you can't tell what was there, But it was
- 27:50Speaker 2: a Dodger hat that I was wearing.
- 27:52Speaker 1: Are you happy now, Jed? Does that make you happy?
- 27:55Speaker 5: Something rotten in the state of Denmark? Is wild of Denmark?
- 27:58Speaker 5: Why does Lorraina love whales?
- 28:01Speaker 1: Boys are great? My wife loves whales. Do we go
- 28:04Speaker 1: whale watch.
- 28:04Speaker 5: If you answer that question like they thought, I'm talking
- 28:06Speaker 5: about whales, dude, and shut up.
- 28:10Speaker 2: I was trying to make a joke about the fact
- 28:13Speaker 2: that the great scam of whale watching.
- 28:15Speaker 1: I've been whale watching, uh in all over the West coast.
- 28:18Speaker 5: You gotta do you have a marygood You've been real
- 28:20Speaker 5: watching for a long time.
- 28:22Speaker 1: Wow, we're watching all over the place.
- 28:25Speaker 2: And so then, uh, every time I go whale watching
- 28:28Speaker 2: this we were gonna see.
- 28:29Speaker 1: Whales are out there, and you only see dolphins. You
- 28:31Speaker 1: never see whales.
- 28:32Speaker 2: Like one time I've seen whales one time I go
- 28:35Speaker 2: some dolphin times.
- 28:36Speaker 5: I'm sometimes I'm the overnight watch with my buddy, who's
- 28:38Speaker 5: the you know, charter boat captain here in time of
- 28:40Speaker 5: fit the beach and I was standing awake overnight and
- 28:43Speaker 5: it's during the daytime. I'm sleeping, you know, and all
- 28:45Speaker 5: of a sudden, I hear shotgun blast, and I'm like,
- 28:47Speaker 5: what if he's like, these damn dolphins are killing a
- 28:49Speaker 5: bait for the snapper, and he was firing shotguns at
- 28:52Speaker 5: the dolphins. Unless that's the legal he would not do that.
- 28:54Speaker 5: Speaking of Scott Boris, dude, my nephew's gonna be a
- 28:57Speaker 5: best man at a wedding here upcoming, And I told
- 28:59Speaker 5: him to a ranger where he gave this speech after
- 29:02Speaker 5: the maid ofy. I was like, you got to lead
- 29:04Speaker 5: off with I'm not a stalker, but that girl is
- 29:06Speaker 5: hard to follow, you know what I mean? Because Scott
- 29:09Speaker 5: Boris and Don Rickles love jokes like that. They used
- 29:12Speaker 5: the P word alliterational line. But I'm saying that girls,
- 29:15Speaker 5: I'm not a stalker, but that girl is hard to follow. Like,
- 29:17Speaker 5: but then I can't think of any sort of social media, like, hey,
- 29:21Speaker 5: check out social media. She says, he's hard to follow
- 29:24Speaker 5: because you might get her saying over at that point,
- 29:25Speaker 5: what do you think?
- 29:28Speaker 1: You're back on the good stuff, Jed, You're back on
- 29:31Speaker 1: the good stuff.
- 29:31Speaker 5: Now, I'm still thinking. I'm still thinking. But what I'm
- 29:33Speaker 5: saying is, think about if you're the president the United
- 29:36Speaker 5: States and you're on the eighteenth hole, you don't have
- 29:38Speaker 5: time for any sort of extra holes playoff golf, but
- 29:41Speaker 5: you have the golf gods. They're like they're like a
- 29:43Speaker 5: Roger Roger Warterer's golf tee, like pink Folly. They're like, oh,
- 29:47Speaker 5: in all, we just hold another ball. But they don't.
- 29:49Speaker 5: They don't think, but they're like, you can't pull against
- 29:51Speaker 5: other people to miss butt. And the President's like, I
- 29:54Speaker 5: don't have time for extra holes, So what I do?
- 29:57Speaker 5: And the golf gods are like you can pull for
- 29:59Speaker 5: them to be in today the golf gods are unscrupulous,
- 30:02Speaker 5: but you can't pull for somebody to miss the putt.
- 30:04Speaker 5: What do you think the President of United States does
- 30:06Speaker 5: when he's playing anybody, governor, congresspeople born dignitaries, and his
- 30:10Speaker 5: tight hole and yet he's one hole ahead. He can't
- 30:13Speaker 5: pull for them to miss that putt? What do you do? Hey, listen,
- 30:17Speaker 5: and I was playing President.
- 30:18Speaker 1: You should do Jed? You know you should do Jed Jay.
- 30:21Speaker 1: Let me tell you.
- 30:22Speaker 5: I know you never to listen. I do know what
- 30:24Speaker 5: to do. I always say, hey, President poot you're playing golf,
- 30:26Speaker 5: can we call you President Putton? Okay, that's dam pootude.
- 30:31Speaker 6: That's a hole in one president right there.
- 30:34Speaker 2: So if I open up the mall or shop, we
- 30:36Speaker 2: should have Jed Jed who fled moonshine. We should sell
- 30:40Speaker 2: some Jed who fled moonshine. I know truck or Joe
- 30:42Speaker 2: sent some moonshine in. But we should have some jed
- 30:44Speaker 2: who fled moonshine.
- 30:46Speaker 6: Where have you gone whale watching.
- 30:48Speaker 2: Of Santa Barbara, Orange County, San Diego, Uh, Long Beach.
- 30:55Speaker 6: Even in San Diego, you didn't get any any whales.
- 30:58Speaker 2: I've only seen wales. We've only seen him one time,
- 31:00Speaker 2: and that was in Santa Barbara.
- 31:01Speaker 1: Actually some of Santa Barbara. Yeah, so that was.
- 31:04Speaker 2: Uh, you see whales all the time you go out there.
- 31:06Speaker 2: I see a lot of dolphins. I have those spinner dolphins.
- 31:08Speaker 2: Those are the those are the razzle dazzle dolphins. You know,
- 31:11Speaker 2: the ones that spin around to put on a show.
- 31:13Speaker 1: Yeah, look at me, dude, I'm the cool dolphin man.
- 31:16Speaker 6: I've only been whale watching once, but it was in Alaska.
- 31:19Speaker 2: So wow, Okay, Alaska, that's where the whales hang out.
- 31:23Speaker 1: Yeah, that's there, you know, that's their spot. Now. I
- 31:25Speaker 1: wanted to go in Vancouver. When we were in Vancouver,
- 31:27Speaker 1: we didn't know oh yeah that schedule.
- 31:29Speaker 2: Yeah, because I looked up and they had some really
- 31:32Speaker 2: cool whale watching stuff. But it was like an all
- 31:34Speaker 2: half either half a day or an all day thing,
- 31:36Speaker 2: and we didn't have time because of the commitments that
- 31:39Speaker 2: we had, So I couldn't get out there. But now
- 31:40Speaker 2: go back to Vancouver some day and shaded out maybe Seattle.
- 31:43Speaker 2: I've been to Seattle a couple of times. I remember
- 31:44Speaker 2: been whale watching there. It's probably pretty good there. It's
- 31:46Speaker 2: just south of Vancouver.

- 38:59Speaker 2: It's none other than Caleb Williams of the Chicago Bears,
- 39:04Speaker 2: the worst inaccurate throw rate in the NFL heading into
- 39:07Speaker 2: Week eleven.
- 39:08Speaker 7: Here we go, here we go, here to the third degree.
- 39:14Speaker 1: This is one Big Ben gets grilled, all right?
- 39:18Speaker 8: Cool op Jack's coach Liam Cohen addressed the media on
- 39:21Speaker 8: Wednesday and said it's prettymature to make a decision on
- 39:24Speaker 8: whether or not Travis Hunter will continue playing on both
- 39:26Speaker 8: sides of the ball when he returns from injury. Ben,
- 39:28Speaker 8: do you think his days of playing both ways is over?
- 39:31Speaker 6: No?
- 39:31Speaker 1: And here's why, because he's not great at anything.
- 39:34Speaker 2: He's average as a defensive back, he's averaged as a
- 39:37Speaker 2: wide receiver. If he was a great defensive back, you
- 39:39Speaker 2: just play him at defensive back. If he's a great receiver,
- 39:41Speaker 2: you just play him as a receiver. So they're getting average,
- 39:44Speaker 2: they trade it up to get him. I think he's
- 39:47Speaker 2: gonna They're gonna come back and do it again, and
- 39:49Speaker 2: then if he gets hurt again, they'll just make him a.
- 39:51Speaker 1: Wide receiver and that's that. But I don't think it's
- 39:53Speaker 1: over four and playing both sides.
- 39:55Speaker 8: Next, justin Tucker's ten games suspension is over and he
- 39:58Speaker 8: is now eligible to be signed by any t There
- 40:00Speaker 8: are a lot of teams with kicking issues. Do you
- 40:02Speaker 8: think any of them would take the pr hit of
- 40:04Speaker 8: signing Tucker?
- 40:06Speaker 2: Well, he's got the double whim, he's got the pr problem,
- 40:08Speaker 2: and he wasn't kicking as well his last year in Baltimore,
- 40:11Speaker 2: so that's the issue. I listen, the Rams need a kicker,
- 40:16Speaker 2: Green Bay could use a kicker. Atlanta there's a bunch
- 40:19Speaker 2: of teams, as you said, that need a kicker. I
- 40:20Speaker 2: don't think he will be back in the NFL this
- 40:23Speaker 2: season next there.
- 40:25Speaker 8: Were reports that the Dodgers could be part of the
- 40:27Speaker 8: market for Cody Bellinger's free agency this offseason, Ben, would
- 40:30Speaker 8: you welcome reunion with Bellinger?
- 40:32Speaker 2: No, he was great for a couple of years. I
- 40:36Speaker 2: have PTSD on Cody Bellinger. He was so bad for
- 40:40Speaker 2: multiple years with the Dodgers. I want nothing to do
- 40:43Speaker 2: with Belger. Let him stay with the Yankees, play in
- 40:46Speaker 2: that small bar park in the Bronx. But they should
- 40:48Speaker 2: get somebody else, not him. How did we down code
- 40:50Speaker 2: you pass this edition? As they went play I won
- 40:54Speaker 2: for the Golden Banana.
- 40:55Speaker 5: I won
