2:25
Speaker 1: we go to Arizona. Now, back in the day, while
2:29
Speaker 1: I was doing some work here at Fox Sports Radio,
2:31
Speaker 1: for a number of years, I ran a gossip sports
2:35
Speaker 1: gossip website. That was my that was my thing. I
2:38
Speaker 1: was whatsing around with that did that for a number
2:40
Speaker 1: of years, had some success with that, got some some
2:43
Speaker 1: critical acclaim whatever that's worth obviously nothing because I'm not
2:47
Speaker 1: doing it anymore, although I can't buy my website back
2:50
Speaker 1: for like ten thousand dollars or whatever it is. But anyway, yeah,
2:55
Speaker 1: it's ridiculous. But back in the day when I when
2:57
Speaker 1: I did that job, we had a mantra in the
3:00
Speaker 1: newsroom that when I was putting that together, aggregating a
3:03
Speaker 1: rumor is just a fact that has yet to be discovered,
3:07
Speaker 1: and today's rumors are tomorrow's news. Well that's been proven correct.
3:10
Speaker 1: Again if you have not heard by now a story
3:13
Speaker 1: that we talked about as a rumor over the last
3:16
Speaker 1: couple of weeks has turned out to be reality. The
3:19
Speaker 1: Cardinals have said bye bye, and they have informed Kyler
3:23
Speaker 1: Murray that he will be fired, that he's done, he's out,
3:27
Speaker 1: and he is going to be able to go to
3:29
Speaker 1: another NFL team when the new league year begins a
3:33
Speaker 1: week from today. His reign of terror in the desert
3:37
Speaker 1: will come to an end and they will drive him
3:40
Speaker 1: to Sky Harbor Airport there in the Valley of the
3:43
Speaker 1: Sun and say get out of here now. Murray posted
3:46
Speaker 1: a sappy good bye note to the fans in the
3:50
Speaker 1: Valley of the Sun. There on social media, it was
3:54
Speaker 1: ninety nine words, the ninety nine ninety nine words, and
3:59
Speaker 1: now some fans ran to defend Kyler Murray, upset that
4:03
Speaker 1: he used one word in particular. Now there were three paragraphs,
4:08
Speaker 1: but ninety nine worth three paragraphs, and there was one
4:10
Speaker 1: word in particular that upset people. He used the word failed,
4:16
Speaker 1: and that was the money. Quote he said, I wanted
4:18
Speaker 1: nothing more than to be the one to end the
4:20
Speaker 1: seventy seven year drought for this organization. I am sorry,
4:26
Speaker 1: he said, I failed us close quote. So that is
4:30
Speaker 1: a good jumping off point, and let's discuss the question.
4:35
Speaker 1: Kyler Murray says that he quote failed the Arizona Cardinals
4:40
Speaker 1: and a number of jocksniffers running to defend Kyler Murray.
4:46
Speaker 1: Is that valid or invalid that he used the word failed?
4:52
Speaker 1: Kyler Murray, So I've got pyromaniac, memory, foam, and KFC
4:58
Speaker 1: and we will combine all all of these things together
5:01
Speaker 1: and we are going to play Connect three is what
5:04
Speaker 1: we're going to play. So number one, number one. So
5:10
Speaker 1: we ran this through the very technical, very technical malor
5:15
Speaker 1: Lie detector, the Mallard Lie detector, and we determined there
5:19
Speaker 1: were no lies detected, No lies detected, none, zippo, zippo.
5:27
Speaker 1: The guy Kyler Murray was the number one overall number
5:33
Speaker 1: of the twenty nineteen collegiate draft. Now, when you are
5:38
Speaker 1: the top pick, is it fair or unfair to expect
5:42
Speaker 1: that you're getting the team that's drafting the players getting
5:45
Speaker 1: a quarterback who's a Hollywood star? Is that fair or unfair?
5:48
Speaker 1: I believe it's fair. I believe it's fair. And I'm
5:51
Speaker 1: the one with microphone, so I'm gonna go first. You
5:53
Speaker 1: can call in later if you want. I believe that's fair. Now,
5:55
Speaker 1: did the Cardinals get a Hollywood level quarterback? No, under
6:01
Speaker 1: any measurement, they did not get a Hollywood level quarterback.
6:03
Speaker 1: What they got was a Ballywood quarterback. That's what he
6:07
Speaker 1: not Hollywood bally would, all right for Bally Would. That's
6:11
Speaker 1: what they got. Kyler Murray saying that he failed, that's
6:16
Speaker 1: even an understatement. Right, It's like a pyromaniac arsonist showing
6:21
Speaker 1: up to the fire and going, boy, somebody really burned
6:28
Speaker 1: this place down. I wonder what that was all about. Yeah,
6:32
Speaker 1: franchise quarterbacks supposed to elevate everyone, and he didn't do it,
6:37
Speaker 1: and to be fair, he needed a booster seat, so
6:39
Speaker 1: we knew going in it was not gonna be easier
6:40
Speaker 1: for Kyler Murray finishes ten games under five hundred, ten
6:44
Speaker 1: games under five hundred, not exactly a franchise savior. And
6:49
Speaker 1: he wasn't even a five hundred quarterback and get the
6:54
Speaker 1: playoff resume. And if you had been drafted, whoever you
6:58
Speaker 1: might be, if you had been drafted with the top
7:00
Speaker 1: pick of the twenty nineteen NFL draft, you would have
7:05
Speaker 1: the same number today as Kyler Murray of playoff wins.
7:11
Speaker 1: He didn't win a single playoff game. Squad douche in
7:14
Speaker 1: terms of playoff wins none and he and I want
7:19
Speaker 1: to kill him, and I am going to be Benny
7:20
Speaker 1: Bright's side. He said, well, you can't be Benny Bright,
7:22
Speaker 1: so you've been ripping Kyler Murray does I was right, honestly,
7:24
Speaker 1: And I'm sure the Arizona Republic will write a trac
7:27
Speaker 1: shit and apology to me. And do they still even
7:30
Speaker 1: have that newspaper? I don't know. I feel like all
7:31
Speaker 1: newspapers are out of business at this point, but if
7:33
Speaker 1: they're still around, they they said, you know what, that
7:35
Speaker 1: guy Maller was right, maybe we should pay more attention
7:37
Speaker 1: to that overnight guy on Fox. He called this in
7:40
Speaker 1: twenty nineteen, seven years ago. He called this anyway, I
7:43
Speaker 1: knew right away and the moment I knew, well, first
7:46
Speaker 1: of all, looking at Kyler Murray looks like a glitch
7:47
Speaker 1: in a video game. Not a good one, not a
7:49
Speaker 1: good one. But I think it was actually on Fox
7:52
Speaker 1: Sports Radio. I think it was before the draft, Kyler
7:56
Speaker 1: Murray was interviewed. I think it was on the Dan
7:59
Speaker 1: Patrick Show, and he was waiting for his dad to
8:04
Speaker 1: answer question. He didn't know what to say, and his
8:05
Speaker 1: dad was like there and his parent was along and
8:08
Speaker 1: answering the question. I said, oh my god, this is terrible.
8:11
Speaker 1: And that was a sign of coming attractions, is what
8:14
Speaker 1: it was. So no playoff wins, he did lead the
8:17
Speaker 1: league in one category, So I will pump the tires
8:19
Speaker 1: on Kyler. Congratulations. Seven years as an NFL starting quarterback
8:23
Speaker 1: for the Arizona Cardinals, and he led the NFL in
8:26
Speaker 1: sacks taken. So condract, you know, impress it. Not everyone
8:31
Speaker 1: can leave the NFL and sacks taken, but there you go,
8:33
Speaker 1: that and that and I don't know that we'll see
8:36
Speaker 1: another quarterback that has a more impressive signature moment playing
8:42
Speaker 1: quarterback in the NFL than Kyler Murray who famously and
8:46
Speaker 1: it's one of the all time great moments in my
8:48
Speaker 1: career and doing this a long time. The study clause,
8:51
Speaker 1: the homework clause in Kyler Murray's contract, where he literally
8:56
Speaker 1: literally had to have it in writing the team had
8:58
Speaker 1: they felt it was so impart he was such such
9:00
Speaker 1: a loser and he was so lazy that they had
9:04
Speaker 1: to put it in the contract where he was contractually
9:08
Speaker 1: obligated to do his job and to watch tape and
9:13
Speaker 1: study for the opponent and all that stuff. And some
9:16
Speaker 1: of Europe said, well, you know, these people say, oh,
9:18
Speaker 1: you didn't fail. He did fail, that's obvious. But the
9:21
Speaker 1: good news is for Kyler is that while he flopped
9:24
Speaker 1: playing football in Arizona with the joystick, he was one
9:28
Speaker 1: of the great gamers in the state of Arizona, top
9:31
Speaker 1: ten gamer when it comes to Call of Dude. He
9:33
Speaker 1: first ballot Hall of Famer Video Game Hall of Fame. Now,
9:36
Speaker 1: I know they give you a gold jacket when you
9:39
Speaker 1: go to the Pro Football Hall of Fame. What do
9:40
Speaker 1: you get when you go to the Gamer Hall of Fame?
9:45
Speaker 1: Is it a golden joystick? Is there something like a cartridge?
9:48
Speaker 1: Is there? I don't know what it is? All right
9:50
Speaker 1: now payt you so keeping the drum beat, going and
9:54
Speaker 1: going and going and going. So what is the forecast?
9:57
Speaker 1: You pull out the Doppler two thousand radar? What is
10:01
Speaker 1: the forecast for Kyler Murray? Who has now been excommunicated
10:08
Speaker 1: from the Cardinals. So what's next on the forecast? So
10:11
Speaker 1: the forecast, if you look right now, the forecast is
10:14
Speaker 1: the he's getting the day spa send off. It's a
10:19
Speaker 1: nice SPA day for Kyler. Go to the Spa, have
10:22
Speaker 1: a good time. Imagine if you will, a world where
10:26
Speaker 1: you are fired from your job, You're tossed overboard and
10:32
Speaker 1: you land in a velvet lifeboat. That's Kyler Murray. Remember,
10:37
Speaker 1: sports is not reality like the reality is. And what
10:40
Speaker 1: I mean by that, it's a different cartoon issues, it's
10:43
Speaker 1: a different world. Normally, when somebody loses their job, you're like,
10:46
Speaker 1: oh man, I'm bummed out. That sucks for that guy.
10:49
Speaker 1: He's gonna have to go on unemployment, He's gonna have
10:51
Speaker 1: to find another job. What are you gonna do? You
10:54
Speaker 1: gotta go to the Express Employment website and all that,
10:57
Speaker 1: and so that's normal. But in sports, the Cardinals will
11:03
Speaker 1: be paying the little munchkin thirty six point seven million
11:08
Speaker 1: to not play quarterback. Do you understand how much of
11:14
Speaker 1: a absolute loser, a jackwagon one has to be for
11:22
Speaker 1: a team to give you that kind of severance package
11:25
Speaker 1: that you're so useless, Kyler Murray, that the Cardinals would
11:29
Speaker 1: rather pay almost thirty seven million to not have you.
11:34
Speaker 1: That you're that much of a bad influence in the
11:37
Speaker 1: locker room and you're that you're that's pathetic on the field,
11:42
Speaker 1: it's wild. That is a severance package wrapped in a
11:46
Speaker 1: memory foam mattress is what that is. And the Cardinals
11:51
Speaker 1: didn't just throw him off the ship. They tossed him overboard.
11:56
Speaker 1: They gave him a charcuterie board in that boat, and
12:00
Speaker 1: they gave him a spa, you know, the rope from
12:03
Speaker 1: the spa and just everything. I mean, this gave him everything.
12:08
Speaker 1: And the crazy part is that now he wasn't good
12:12
Speaker 1: and we documented that, and now there are teams that
12:16
Speaker 1: are like, wow, this is great. I saw some NFL
12:18
Speaker 1: pundits that Kyler Murray is clearly the top quarterback available. Really,
12:23
Speaker 1: what is the measurement on that? How are you measuring
12:26
Speaker 1: that Kyler Murray, who doesn't even like football, is not
12:30
Speaker 1: good at football, is the top guy available clearly? Really,
12:36
Speaker 1: what kind of fentanyl are you on, sir? If you
12:38
Speaker 1: think that? Seriously? Like, what are we doing? But there
12:42
Speaker 1: you go, Well Kyler Murray and there's always out is
12:45
Speaker 1: one man's trash is another man's fantasy reclamation project. But
12:50
Speaker 1: to say that he's clearly better than the other quarterbacks,
12:52
Speaker 1: I don't buy that. I don't know how anyone with
12:55
Speaker 1: an IQ above twenty could buy that. The Vikings again,
13:00
Speaker 1: every quarterback is being connected with the Vikings. Daniel Jones, Kyler,
13:03
Speaker 1: they should have like seven quarterbacks on the field. Yeah,
13:06
Speaker 1: that's it. Just go with four. No, no, you have
13:08
Speaker 1: three offensive linemen. You're gonna have seven quarterbacks one wide receiver.
13:14
Speaker 1: Now you might go with five quarterbacks and then four
13:17
Speaker 1: offensive linemen. The rest would be be pass catchers. I mean,
13:21
Speaker 1: you could do there's different ways you can do it.
13:23
Speaker 1: But my god, so the Jets, now that would be perfect.
13:27
Speaker 1: You imagined Kyler Murray with the Jets. The Raiders, they're
13:32
Speaker 1: gonna have Fernando Mendoza supposedly if they keep the first
13:36
Speaker 1: pick in the draft and they need a bridge quarterback.
13:40
Speaker 1: Of course Kyler would be a very small bridge, but
13:42
Speaker 1: that's fine. And the island of misfit quarterbacks right there,
13:47
Speaker 1: and even this scares me a little bit. The Rams
13:50
Speaker 1: have been mentioned, but only because the Rams hired Cliff
13:53
Speaker 1: Kingsbury as a Sean McVay loyalist. So Cliff Kingsbury, there's
13:59
Speaker 1: a connection. Remember's not what you know, it's who you know.
14:01
Speaker 1: And so Cliff Kingsbury is with the Rams coaching staff
14:04
Speaker 1: unless he gets a better job and then leaves. So
14:07
Speaker 1: Cliff Kingsbury's hanging out there, and then Kyler Murray could
14:11
Speaker 1: come in there be the backup for a year, and
14:14
Speaker 1: it's you know, it's kind of yeh, listen, why not
14:16
Speaker 1: go play for the minimum somewhere? Go to the Rams.
14:20
Speaker 1: Have the Rams leak good stories about how great you're
14:22
Speaker 1: looking practice and what a great locker room guy you are.
14:25
Speaker 1: The typical bull crap that goes out in the media,
14:27
Speaker 1: and yeah, play for the minimum and Arizona. Remember they're
14:31
Speaker 1: picking up the tab like that rich uncle that's got
14:34
Speaker 1: a lot of cash and likes to throw it around
14:35
Speaker 1: to show everyone in the family how rich he is
14:37
Speaker 1: and does he want to Does Kyler Murray actually want
14:40
Speaker 1: to play for a bad team or is he willing
14:44
Speaker 1: to go be a backup on the Rams, take a
14:47
Speaker 1: sabbatical and make all that money and just play video
14:51
Speaker 1: games and that's it all right? Meanwhile, final point to Seattle.
14:55
Speaker 1: We go and you, sir, have just won the Super
15:00
Speaker 1: Bowl MVP. What are you gonna do? Now? I'm gonna
15:02
Speaker 1: go find a job somewhere else because this team doesn't
15:05
Speaker 1: want me in a clear act of malfeasance. And I
15:08
Speaker 1: know somewhere in the great Pacific Northwest JJ and Renton
15:12
Speaker 1: is devastated, and no Stradinas is gonna cry like crime
15:16
Speaker 1: Craig because Seattle, classless Seahawks, you just went out and
15:22
Speaker 1: won the Super Bowl MVP. Get out of here. They
15:24
Speaker 1: chose not not the place the Seahawks, the franchise tag
15:28
Speaker 1: on Kenneth Walker. They will let him walk away from
15:32
Speaker 1: the Pacific Northwest and so instead of getting a guaranteed
15:35
Speaker 1: salary of fourteen million dollars for one year, he will
15:39
Speaker 1: run off carrying his Pete Roselle Super Bowl MVP trophy
15:44
Speaker 1: and say I just played better than anyone else on
15:49
Speaker 1: my offense in the Super Bowl, and I'm now going
15:52
Speaker 1: to explore the open market. There you go, all right?
15:55
Speaker 1: So the question here which direction? Which direction is? Is
16:00
Speaker 1: Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker headed as he heads to
16:04
Speaker 1: the auctioning block after and he's auctioning his own services.
16:09
Speaker 1: As we said, he's a free agent and next week
16:12
Speaker 1: and go anywhere it wants. So it's nice to know
16:15
Speaker 1: that the Seattle Seahawks value the Super Bowl MVP like
16:19
Speaker 1: he is a spark from KFC. So he's not just
16:25
Speaker 1: a fork or a spoon. He's a spark, so he's
16:28
Speaker 1: a little more valuable than just a fork or a spoon.
16:31
Speaker 1: It's a multi dimensional situation, but ultimately just a cheap
16:35
Speaker 1: piece of takeout cutlery is what he is. And it's like, hey,
16:39
Speaker 1: thanks for the memories. Don't let the door hit you
16:42
Speaker 1: where the good Lord split you get out of here
16:45
Speaker 1: and now you're someone else's problem. You're not our problem now. Financially,
16:49
Speaker 1: this is not bad. Financially this is not bad. This
16:51
Speaker 1: is a bonanza, is what it is. It's a seller's market,
16:56
Speaker 1: sellers market. You look at the running backs, and running
16:59
Speaker 1: backs have become more vogue in recent years, as Skwan
17:02
Speaker 1: Barkley in Philadelphia was the man of the hour there
17:05
Speaker 1: for the Eagles and their championship run, and then Kenneth
17:08
Speaker 1: Walker the Super Bowl MVP. So the last couple of
17:10
Speaker 1: years it has been an uptick in running backs. So
17:14
Speaker 1: it is a seller's market has said there's a shortage
17:17
Speaker 1: of goods available, so that's that's a positive. And Breece
17:21
Speaker 1: Hall got tagged by the Jets, so he's off the market.
17:24
Speaker 1: So Walker becomes the bell of the ball. Yeah, and
17:29
Speaker 1: it's happy days are here again. Financially, happy days are
17:34
Speaker 1: here again. It's an old show and watching on the
17:37
Speaker 1: reruns on the on the streaming and all that, but
17:39
Speaker 1: it's like Richie Cunningham out there getting paid, getting paid
17:42
Speaker 1: big money. Now, listen, is Walker the greatest running back? No,
17:46
Speaker 1: he's solid. He's a solid, not great. It's like and
17:50
Speaker 1: he was splitting chores with Zach Charbonney in Seattle and
17:56
Speaker 1: Charboney got hurt. So Seattle's gonna have to bring multiple
17:59
Speaker 1: running back. They're gonna draft one and then likely sign
18:02
Speaker 1: one as a free agent. And so we'll see how
18:05
Speaker 1: this goes. But good luck to Kenneth Walker, who goes
18:10
Speaker 1: to market. Now who's window shopping? Who's out there window shopping?
18:13
Speaker 1: So you got the supposedly the Giants, I thought they
18:16
Speaker 1: had some running backs. The Giants cansa city. You got
18:21
Speaker 1: the Broncos have been mentioned as a possibility for Kenneth Walker.
18:25
Speaker 1: So there's a few teams out there that are really
18:27
Speaker 1: horny to get a running back. They're really horny to
18:30
Speaker 1: get a running back upgrade. They see the explosive style
18:34
Speaker 1: and all that. So Kenneth Walker, it's like the classic
18:38
Speaker 1: scene from the old movies, ready to say, show me
18:40
Speaker 1: the money, show me the money. Now. My unsolicited malor
18:44
Speaker 1: advice to Kenneth Walker the Super Bowl MVP, all things
18:49
Speaker 1: being equal, you take your talents, and you take your GPS,
18:54
Speaker 1: and you set your GPS and your talents to Arrowhead
18:58
Speaker 1: Stadium and you go there, set that GPS and do
19:02

Speaker 1: TESTA writes, and he says, just finished checking the calibrations
22:34
Speaker 1: for the phone breathalyzer. Last hour's results are accurate. Well,
22:39
Speaker 1: thank you. I knew it wasn't broken. Yeah, well, I
22:42
Speaker 1: was gonna go back to Mitch, but but he hung up.
22:46
Speaker 1: So he claimed he played in the NFL, And maybe
22:49
Speaker 1: he did. I don't know. It could be a very
22:52
Speaker 1: specific name that he gave us, and that is someone
22:55
Speaker 1: that played in the NFL. So it's it is possible
22:58
Speaker 1: that that is exactly what happened, and he's just up
23:01
Speaker 1: having a great time enjoying himself. And the person that
23:04
Speaker 1: he named did play high school football and in Powway
23:10
Speaker 1: in San Diego, So it is possible that's all connected.
23:14
Speaker 1: Who knows. By the way, the computer screener here has
23:18
Speaker 1: gone to sleep mode, so it happens at least once
23:22
Speaker 1: an hour. At least once an hour. Alf the alien
23:25
Speaker 1: opine rte since says, rumor has it that you and
23:28
Speaker 1: Looney are going into the workshop to tinker with Benny
23:33
Speaker 1: versus the Penny. Now, Alf says, hear me, he's about
23:36
Speaker 1: to make an elevator pitch. He says, hear me out.
23:39
Speaker 1: Kyler needs a job, and you need a replacement for
23:44
Speaker 1: the obsolete penny. How about Looney flips Kyler. You could
23:49
Speaker 1: call it Benny versus the Alligator Arms. I liked that
23:54
Speaker 1: you included a photoshopped image of Kyler Murray with Looney
24:01
Speaker 1: holding him up. And it's also good that you used
24:04
Speaker 1: a photo of Looney wearing a shirt with no arms,
24:08
Speaker 1: which is something that he loves to do. Loves to
24:11
Speaker 1: do it. No Stradinis writes in from the Pacific Northwest.
24:16
Speaker 1: He says that Kenneth Walker, who has a history of injuries,
24:19
Speaker 1: needs to take the most money he's offered, and good
24:21
Speaker 1: for him. The Seahawks will be fine as long as
24:25
Speaker 1: they continue to get help from the NFL officials, they'll
24:29
Speaker 1: be okay, Well, you're right about that, No Stradenas, You're
24:31
Speaker 1: right about that. The lack of loyalty by you is unbelievable.
24:36
Speaker 1: The lack of loyalty. This guy won you a Super Bowl,
24:40
Speaker 1: carried Sam Darnold's terrible performance to the win. And that's
24:45
Speaker 1: how you treat That's how the Seahawks treat their star players.
24:49
Speaker 1: It's bat job by you, Yapimi in Chicago writes in
24:53
Speaker 1: he says some animosity I noticed towards the go to
24:57
Speaker 1: cutlery packets. You don't have have a drawer with sauces
25:02
Speaker 1: and sports malleor well I did for years when I
25:08
Speaker 1: was a bachelor. I had all that. I had a
25:11
Speaker 1: drawer for the sauce. I had a drawer for the
25:13
Speaker 1: napkins I would take from fast food. Spy ketchup, you
25:15
Speaker 1: just took it from the fast food places. Of course,
25:18
Speaker 1: I had different sections of the drawer for if I
25:22
Speaker 1: had my drawer for Wendy's sauce, if I wanted the
25:25
Speaker 1: barbecue with the honey mustard, I had that. We have
25:28
Speaker 1: Carls Junior out here in the West, so I had
25:30
Speaker 1: Carls junior sauce. I had a lot of ketchup from McDonald's.
25:34
Speaker 1: Would go to Del Taco a lot, got a lot
25:36
Speaker 1: of that stuff. Taco Bell had a good rotation of
25:40
Speaker 1: fast food restaurants. Now though, I saw the inflation on
25:45
Speaker 1: fast food is like they're shameless, the people that serve
25:50
Speaker 1: fast food, like they have no shame in their game.
25:54
Speaker 1: It's insane. How expensive, Like you type into the inflation
25:58
Speaker 1: calculator and there's a mill of them online. How much
26:03
Speaker 1: like a cheeseburger should cost versus how much it does
26:06
Speaker 1: cost in just a number of years. Like the people
26:10
Speaker 1: that run the fast food restaurants just to say, you know,
26:12
Speaker 1: we don't care. We do not care. For instance, I
26:16
Speaker 1: saw this the other day. I think it was the
26:17
Speaker 1: other day. It might have been a little while ago.
26:19
Speaker 1: The mc chicken price increased. It was one dollar in
26:25
Speaker 1: twenty eighteen to three dollars and ten cents last year.
26:29
Speaker 1: That's a two hundred and ten percent increase. It's ridiculous.
26:34
Speaker 1: Seven years, a two hundred and ten percent increase. The
26:38
Speaker 1: mcdoubles price has gone from a dollar nineteen and twenty
26:41
Speaker 1: fourteen last This story was from the end of twenty
26:45
Speaker 1: twenty five, so it's a couple months ago, but it
26:47
Speaker 1: was four fifty nine. That is a two hundred and
26:49
Speaker 1: eighty five percent increase.
26:52
Speaker 2: Yeah.
26:54
Speaker 1: Now, the people at McDonald's they said, wow, the prices
26:56
Speaker 1: you know, differ across the country and all that stuff. Okay, well,
27:02
Speaker 1: good luck on that. And it's not just McDonald's, it's
27:06
Speaker 1: all of them. I didn't notice. We mentioned this on
27:08
Speaker 1: the Fifth Hour podcast to do the foody fun segment
27:11
Speaker 1: usually on Fridays. We brought that back, and I have
27:15
Speaker 1: noticed that if you go on the app, they'll give
27:19
Speaker 1: you a better deal, but then they'll track you, so
27:21
Speaker 1: you it's like a trade offs, like, well, do you
27:25
Speaker 1: want to be tracked on everywhere you go for the
27:27
Speaker 1: fast food restaurant but then you save like a dollar
27:30
Speaker 1: on the cheeseburger or are you just like okay, I'll
27:33
Speaker 1: just pay the full amount and all that. What else
27:37
Speaker 1: do we have to see? Page down? Can't read that
27:40
Speaker 1: on the air. See here your fheme's upset. The rundown
27:45
Speaker 1: was a little late, bad job by you, Mallord. Well,
27:48
Speaker 1: you know there's things going on here, a lot of
27:50
Speaker 1: moving parts. Doc Dan from Minnesota rights this is my
27:54
Speaker 1: problem with Kyler Murray getting fired, he's now number forty seven,
28:00
Speaker 1: and the number of quarterbacks being rumored to head to
28:02
Speaker 1: the Minnesota Vikings. Every day there's another one speculated to
28:08
Speaker 1: replace JJ McCarthy and Doc Dances. At this point, I
28:12
Speaker 1: just want someone, anyone, to be signed, so the story
28:15
Speaker 1: stop appearing on my phone. There you go. The way
28:19
Speaker 1: it works with the Vikings is they'll probably sign someone
28:22
Speaker 1: who was a backup last season in the UFL. I
28:26
Speaker 1: hope they at least go to the Canadian Football League.
28:29
Speaker 1: I hope they would go to the Canadian Football That
28:31
Speaker 1: would be better. Well let's go to the phones right now.
28:33
Speaker 1: Big cosmic week, and who better to give you the
28:36
Speaker 1: inside skinny than our friend Andrea who went out to
28:40
Speaker 1: the hills of Oakland. She traveled out of her humble
28:44
Speaker 1: abode to look at the heavens and she's now back
28:48
Speaker 1: as an eyewitness. I saw it too, I went out,
28:50
Speaker 1: I saw it was clear where I am. I was
28:52
Speaker 1: able to see the cosmic event last night. And hello
28:56
Speaker 1: to you, Andrea the astrology insider. Welcome.
29:00
Speaker 4: Yes, I was thinking of you and the mal Or militia.
29:03
Speaker 4: And you know what was interesting, it was, you know
29:06
Speaker 4: a mix of uh, the full moon, lunar eclipse in
29:10
Speaker 4: Virgo and mercury retrograde. Because what ended up happening then
29:14
Speaker 4: to report back to you is that we were too
29:18
Speaker 4: high up in the Oakland Hills and the fog rolled in.
29:21
Speaker 4: Oh no, yes, no, you'll appreciate this being you know.
29:27
Speaker 4: And yeah, they put us in another room and they
29:30
Speaker 4: showed us a live stream from the Griffith Observatory.
29:35
Speaker 1: Oh sure, yeah, right over downtown l A.
29:38
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, and we got to see the eclipse that way.
29:41
Speaker 4: So it's like plan be Moon and you know, Moon
29:44
Speaker 4: and Virgo got to think on your feet, so they
29:46
Speaker 4: adjusted that. They put us in a room. There was
29:49
Speaker 4: some nice hot chocolate and whipped cream.
29:52
Speaker 1: And that doesn't sound too bad, but you didn't want
29:55
Speaker 1: to see it with your own, you know, your bare eyes. Now.
29:59
Speaker 1: F At about the Griffith Observatory. It's first in Griffith Park,
30:03
Speaker 1: and right down the road is there's a tunnel that
30:08
Speaker 1: they have used in a bunch of movies. There was
30:10
Speaker 1: this whole movie called Roger Rabbit. They used it there
30:12
Speaker 1: a bunch of other movies. And then there's also the
30:15
Speaker 1: original bat Cave from The Batman Show is in Griffith
30:20
Speaker 1: Park buried somewhere out in the woods there. So there's
30:22
Speaker 1: a bunch of stuff around there that they've used for
30:24
Speaker 1: interesting random fun fact.
30:26
Speaker 2: Yeah.
30:27
Speaker 4: I didn't know that that was such interesting fun facts.
30:30
Speaker 4: So yeah, it was kind of planned. B It was
30:32
Speaker 4: my first time up at the Chibo's Space Center and
30:35
Speaker 4: it was really nice, and they have telescope viewings and
30:40
Speaker 4: you know, all plan to come back during the day.
30:42
Speaker 1: Well tell them next time there's a cosmic event like
30:44
Speaker 1: this to just get like a helicopter or a balloon
30:48
Speaker 1: and you can go above the fog.
30:50
Speaker 4: Oh really, so where did you get to see it?
30:52
Speaker 4: It sounds like you got a good view.
30:55
Speaker 1: Yeah. I was concerned because when I left it was
30:58
Speaker 1: it was kind of a little out even it wasn't
31:00
Speaker 1: too cloudy. And then where I got out of the car,
31:04
Speaker 1: there I saw in the north woods. I looked up
31:07
Speaker 1: and I saw it. I was like, oh, that's pretty cool.
31:09
Speaker 1: I took a photo, but there was like, didn't come
31:11
Speaker 1: out that good. So I didn't bother with it because
31:13
Speaker 1: it was a photos photos never do. Yeah, it did
31:16
Speaker 1: not come out very good. Is that because there's a
31:20
Speaker 1: theory here now when people take photos of UFOs. They
31:24
Speaker 1: never come out very good and Bigfoot, Bigfoot no photos?
31:28
Speaker 1: Could it be that these things have an aura around
31:32
Speaker 1: them and that were not allowed to actually like take
31:36
Speaker 1: photos of them whatever device we're using, they messed with
31:39
Speaker 1: the device.
31:40
Speaker 4: So yeah, I mean, energy is real. So if they're
31:43
Speaker 4: not wanting something to happen, they can put out some
31:46
Speaker 4: energy for that. And you throw in mercury, retrograde Hiretuoles
31:50
Speaker 4: technology and communications, so I could have something to do.
31:54
Speaker 1: With all right, Now, hold on, Andrea, don't hang up.
31:57
Speaker 1: Hold on a sec here, I mean at this phone call. Here,

Speaker 4: Yeah, no, you hold space for a lot of people
32:31
Speaker 4: and a lot of different circumstances. But it was really
32:35
Speaker 4: nice to see. I've heard of Quiffin, it's observatory and
32:39
Speaker 4: I've seen, you know, on YouTube, different events that they've had.
32:43
Speaker 4: But it was kind of cozy that they put us
32:45
Speaker 4: in there. And you know, we kept going out and seeing, oh,
32:48
Speaker 4: do you know the fog lift and as.
32:49
Speaker 1: I know, all right, well, as you know you've lived
32:52
Speaker 1: there a long time, you know that one of the
32:54
Speaker 1: staples of living in where you lose the fog. There's
32:57
Speaker 1: always a ton of fog.
32:58
Speaker 4: So right, but know, spiritual experience and nice to be
33:02
Speaker 4: with other spiritual seekers and to learn about, you know,
33:06
Speaker 4: the space center and to you know, it was full
33:09
Speaker 4: moon in Virgo, so plan B. If we couldn't see it,
33:13
Speaker 4: then let's get a video of it in a live stream.
33:16
Speaker 4: Going yeah, so I admire that about the space Space Center.
33:24
Speaker 1: Nice. Well, thank you very much, Andrew, appreciate it. Take
33:28
Speaker 1: care of a great night. There, she goes, Andrew, thank
33:30
Speaker 1: you man. All right, Virgo in service on x You
33:33
Speaker 1: can check her out on social media. Eileen says the
33:38
Speaker 1: FSR computers are buffering. There is a lot of buffering.
33:44
Speaker 1: And it's not just you. I've worked here a long time.
33:46
Speaker 1: I've worked at other radio stations. I've done shows remotely
33:49
Speaker 1: from other radio stations. I've yet to be at a
33:51
Speaker 1: radio station that has good computers. Like, why do they
33:55
Speaker 1: all have bad computers? I don't understand. I do not understand.
34:00
Speaker 1: You have a better computer at home. And I know
34:03
Speaker 1: it's a communal thing. These computers are used by a
34:05
Speaker 1: lot of people. I get it. It seems very odd,
34:09
Speaker 1: very odd to me. Not one place I've been has
34:12
Speaker 1: had good computers, Not one office i've been to. None.
34:17
Speaker 1: All Right, So the twenty seven and done someone named
34:22
Speaker 1: Drew Dolman. You have no idea who that is, because
34:26
Speaker 1: you're not a total loser. But this guy, Drew Dolman,
34:30
Speaker 1: who the hell is that? Well, he was a NFL player,
34:34
Speaker 1: was an NFL lineman, and he has decided that he's
34:41
Speaker 1: done with the NFL. He's I don't know if you
34:45
Speaker 1: can use the word retiring when you're twenty seven years old.
34:48
Speaker 1: He spent four years with the Atlanta Falcons. Last year
34:50
Speaker 1: was in Chicago with the Bears. He has two years,
34:55
Speaker 1: twenty four million remaining on his contract, including nine and
34:59
Speaker 1: a half million. I'm fully guaranteed. So he's walking away
35:01
Speaker 1: from nine and a half million dollars at age twenty seven,
35:08
Speaker 1: and that's it. Says he's he's done, he's had enough.
35:12
Speaker 1: He was a Stanford guy in twenty twenty one college
35:16
Speaker 1: and then that's that's it. So there is this is
35:21
Speaker 1: not that new. It's we've seen a few of these guys.
35:24
Speaker 1: Doesn't happen that often because the money's so great, but
35:29
Speaker 1: the play for a few years, make your money, and
35:33
Speaker 1: that's it. You're done, You get out of here, and
35:36
Speaker 1: you figure, you do the math on this. This guy
35:38
Speaker 1: went to Stanford, so you figure he's not a complete
35:41
Speaker 1: country bumpkin, and he knows, he knows what he's got.
35:44
Speaker 1: So in his career in the NFL, this guy made
35:48
Speaker 1: twenty five million dollars. So at age twenty seven, with
35:52
Speaker 1: twenty five million, you should be able to live a
35:57
Speaker 1: pretty good life, live a pretty good life and not
35:59
Speaker 1: have to work. That's it. We have mallardly third degree.
36:03
Speaker 1: That is straight ahead. We'll get to that NFL stadium story.
36:05
Speaker 1: We'll get to that a little bit later. We'll push
36:06
Speaker 1: that back for timing reasons. Time now for the Insta Trivia.
36:10
Speaker 1: Colts pending free agent wide receiver Alec Pearce and Blank
36:14
Speaker 1: are the only players to average twenty plus yards per
36:17
Speaker 1: reception in a season multiple times since twenty ten. Again,
36:22
Speaker 1: Alex Pearce of the Colts and Blank the only players
36:25
Speaker 1: to average twenty plus yards per reception in the season
36:27

Speaker 5: be selective about his next destination that he could even
38:27
Speaker 5: quote wait through the offseason for some team situation to
38:30
Speaker 5: change in his favor. Ben, could you see the season
38:33
Speaker 5: starting with Kirk Cousins unsigned.
38:35
Speaker 1: No, I think he'll sign. He might sign with CBS,
38:37
Speaker 1: but he'll sign. He'll sign with somebody if the TV
38:41

Speaker 5: With March Madness soon approaching, talks of an NCAA tournament
39:25

Speaker 5: a big mistake. You don't mess with something that is gold.
