0:00
Speaker 1: How do you do. It's our number four. Our number
0:05
Speaker 1: four is knocking at the door. You can hear it
0:08
Speaker 1: knock in the background. So George Pickens looked around the
0:11
Speaker 1: NFL swap meet before agreeing to the Cowboys franchise tag.
0:16
Speaker 1: What does that tell us? Some new reporting over the
0:18
Speaker 1: weekend on George Pickens. Also where you add on Fernando
0:22
Speaker 1: Mendoza's plan to skip the White House for Raiders OTAs,
0:28
Speaker 1: although there's a scheduling snaffoo involved in that. And what
0:32
Speaker 1: stands out about Cowboys safety Caleb Downs having the NFL's
0:37
Speaker 1: top selling rookie jersey as we were a little bit
0:41
Speaker 1: after the NFL Draft. We'll talk about that as well.
0:45
Speaker 1: All of it's coming your way right now. Have a
0:46
Speaker 1: wonderful Monday, and here we go. It's our number four.
0:55
Speaker 1: The fish are not biting. Welcome in the beginning of
1:01
Speaker 1: another hour of the Ben Mallor Show. We are in
1:04
Speaker 1: the air ev reware carving stone unless we're not. But
1:13
Speaker 1: we are your saving star, saving you money on things
1:18
Speaker 1: you shouldn't be paying for anyway, coast to coast, border
1:21
Speaker 1: to border and beyond. On the vast and abundantly powerful
1:26
Speaker 1: microphones of fsre am monating live from the elbow as
1:32
Speaker 1: we rub elbows garanteed human from the world famous Fox
1:38
Speaker 1: Sports Radio studios were Ostrich and and Rich from the
1:45
Speaker 1: BJ's in Boston's a Butcher remind us that this hour
1:49
Speaker 1: made possible on part in part by our our friends
1:51
Speaker 1: at ti Iraq. That's right. For over forty years, ty
1:54
Speaker 1: rack has been helping customers Lie Tom from Fullerton, Outback,
1:58
Speaker 1: John and Joanne and so Cal find the right tires
2:03
Speaker 1: for how, what and where they drive ship fast and
2:06
Speaker 1: freeback by free road hazard protection with convenient installation options
2:12
Speaker 1: like mobile tire installation tire rack dot Com the way
2:16
Speaker 1: that tire buying should be. I know oc who's in
2:20
Speaker 1: the hood in Inglewood. He gives the old thumbs up
2:22
Speaker 1: on that. But are lead this hour? Are lead this
2:25
Speaker 1: hour from Jerry's World the obligatory Mallard monologue referencing the
2:31
Speaker 1: fallout fallout from George Pickens and his situation in the
2:36
Speaker 1: greater Dallas area. And if you have not been paying
2:41
Speaker 1: attention to this, perhaps not. Now we know that George
2:44
Speaker 1: Pickens has signed the DOCU sign He's gonna stay with
2:48
Speaker 1: the Cowboys, at least in theory he's agreed to the
2:52
Speaker 1: franchise tag offer that was made to him. So Pickens
2:55
Speaker 1: signing that one year franchise tender with the Cowboys, and
3:00
Speaker 1: and we're now told that he did go out to
3:02
Speaker 1: the market and see what was available. He looked around
3:07
Speaker 1: and he said, what's what's out there in the wild
3:09
Speaker 1: blue yonder? What can I find in the wild blue yonder?
3:11
Speaker 1: So that if you didn't see this, perhaps not. So
3:15
Speaker 1: Pickens went out and the fish aren't biting. Essentially, there
3:20
Speaker 1: was no there there for George Pickens to get a
3:24
Speaker 1: long term contract, at least that's the way it's been
3:26
Speaker 1: passed on to us over the weekend. So that is
3:28
Speaker 1: a good jumping off point. Let us discuss the question
3:32
Speaker 1: George Pickens, he did his due diligence, He looked around
3:36
Speaker 1: the NFL swap meet before agreeing to the Cowboys' franchise
3:40
Speaker 1: tender offer. What does that tell us about George Pickens
3:44
Speaker 1: in his situation. So I've got blocked calendar, app and hibernating,
3:52
Speaker 1: and we will combine all of these things together, and
3:55
Speaker 1: we were going to get a big pile of the gobbegool,
3:58
Speaker 1: big old pile of God. And you know, what as
4:00
Speaker 1: an added bonus, we're gonna have the Baba ganoosh, the
4:04
Speaker 1: Meal of Champions. So to kick off here, George Pickens
4:06
Speaker 1: went for a stroll through the NFL flea market and
4:10
Speaker 1: he looked to the right, he looked to the left,
4:12
Speaker 1: he looked up, he looked down, He looked all around,
4:15
Speaker 1: and he realized, nobody wants me. The lot be empty.
4:20
Speaker 1: The lot be empty, is what he realized here. And
4:22
Speaker 1: so he spent the off season engaging his market, only
4:25
Speaker 1: to find the needle firmly pinned on E for empty.
4:32
Speaker 1: And that's that now. So don't even bother with the
4:35
Speaker 1: whole game of charades and all that. The fact that
4:39
Speaker 1: a single team is one team, whether that's the Raiders
4:42
Speaker 1: or the Ravens or the Patriots. If somebody had said,
4:45
Speaker 1: you know what, we want to pay this guy, and
4:48
Speaker 1: they would have let it be known through back channels
4:50
Speaker 1: and all that stuff, then we wouldn't be having this
4:53
Speaker 1: conversation that Pickens would have not signed the tender and
4:57
Speaker 1: would have manipulated this situation with his agent to go
5:01
Speaker 1: to the team that was willing to pay him the
5:02
Speaker 1: big money contract instead. That didn't happen. It wasn't just
5:08
Speaker 1: a lack of interest based on the reporting, it wasn't
5:11
Speaker 1: a lack of interest. The league was uninterested in even
5:13
Speaker 1: being uninterested, Like you know how uninterested you have to
5:16
Speaker 1: be to even be uninterested in being uninterested. So that's
5:19
Speaker 1: where they are. The market did not just decline the
5:23
Speaker 1: invitation with not a decline of invitation here, it was
5:26
Speaker 1: a blocked We blocked his number and that's it. We've
5:29
Speaker 1: moved on. We're not even gonna have the number in
5:32
Speaker 1: our phone. It's all blocked and all that. The Cowboys
5:35
Speaker 1: did not negotiate because they didn't have to negotiate. Now,
5:39
Speaker 1: it is the smart move. Every once in a while,
5:42
Speaker 1: Jerry Jones does something that's right. This is the smart move.
5:44
Speaker 1: You should not give George Pickens a big money contract.
5:48
Speaker 1: They didn't blink because nobody forced them to blink. If
5:51
Speaker 1: somebody had been out there as a sugar daddy for
5:55
Speaker 1: George Pickens the wide receiver, then we'd obviously be having
5:58
Speaker 1: a much different conversation. But it's not really a snub.
6:01
Speaker 1: It's a cold hard valuation of the player. And Pickens
6:06
Speaker 1: also tested the water this reporting over the weekend saying
6:09
Speaker 1: he tested the water and he found out exactly where
6:12
Speaker 1: he sits on the food chain of NFL wide receivers,
6:15
Speaker 1: and it's not near the top. It's not near the top.
6:18
Speaker 1: Now furthermore to Vegas, we go where the Raiders rookie
6:22
Speaker 1: quarterback Fernando Mendoza. Fernando Mendoza sparking a cyber fury over
6:29
Speaker 1: the weekend, and he said recently over the weekend, revealed
6:34
Speaker 1: that even though Indiana is going to the White House
6:36
Speaker 1: to celebrate the championship that they won in college football,
6:39
Speaker 1: he says I ain't going. He says he's planning on
6:43
Speaker 1: snubbing the White House. The championship winning Indiana teammates will
6:48
Speaker 1: all be there hanging out in DC, and he is
6:51
Speaker 1: not going. Mendoza, who led Indiana to that great season
6:56
Speaker 1: good college quarterback, doesn't look to be a very good
6:58
Speaker 1: NFL quarterback. So the Raider drafted him at the very
7:01
Speaker 1: top of the draft. So he claims, Fernando Mendoza that
7:05
Speaker 1: May eleventh, today's the fourth So a week from today,
7:09
Speaker 1: May eleventh, the ceremony conflicts with the start of Otia's
7:14
Speaker 1: there's a conflict, a scheduling snaffoo. How do you do?
7:19
Speaker 1: And so therefore he cannot attend. He said, quote if
7:24
Speaker 1: it is the first day of OTA's, like I said,
7:27
Speaker 1: I'm the bottom of the totem pole. Here, Mendoza told
7:29
Speaker 1: reporters during his news conference, he said, as a rookie,
7:34
Speaker 1: I don't think that's a good luck. Mendoza added, I
7:37
Speaker 1: want to try, he said, I want to try and
7:40
Speaker 1: serve best, serve my teammates, and I don't know if
7:44
Speaker 1: that would be doing that. So it didn't take long
7:48
Speaker 1: course for those quotes to go viral as former Indiana
7:52
Speaker 1: who's your quarterback? Deciding on social media that he is
7:56
Speaker 1: not going to go to the White House, and you
7:59
Speaker 1: know what that means. Of course, this becomes a polarizing
8:02
Speaker 1: political issue. So the question where are you at on
8:06
Speaker 1: Fernando Mendoza and his plans to skip out on the
8:11
Speaker 1: White House visit, And he says, I'm doing it because
8:15
Speaker 1: I'm a raider rookie, and that's why I'm doing it.
8:17
Speaker 1: I got to be at OTA's, all right, So we
8:19
Speaker 1: are at the part of the story where the excuse
8:22
Speaker 1: does not survive basic fact checking problem. Problem for Fernando Mendoza.
8:30
Speaker 1: If you don't want to go hang out with the
8:32
Speaker 1: President President Trump. That's your call. That's fine. There's no
8:37
Speaker 1: loyalty oath required that. If that's how you feel. However,
8:42
Speaker 1: don't pin it on the date. Don't say it's I
8:45
Speaker 1: can't go because I have to go to OTA's. Do
8:49
Speaker 1: not do that. It's not the calendar app on your phone,
8:53
Speaker 1: because that isn't even a day. The Raiders own website
8:57
Speaker 1: they say OTAs begin again May eighteen, so the White
9:02
Speaker 1: House visit is a full week earlier. So you knew
9:05
Speaker 1: the math on that yet one week and that's not
9:07
Speaker 1: a conflict. That's an empty space on the calendar, So
9:11
Speaker 1: you got plenty of time. And if it's about scheduling,
9:14
Speaker 1: maybe check the schedule. If you're worried about the schedule,
9:17
Speaker 1: I'm just saying. I'm just saying, if you've got a
9:19
Speaker 1: problem with the schedule, check the schedule and all that stuff.
9:21
Speaker 1: So it's for Nana Mendoza. Does this qualify as his
9:25
Speaker 1: first controversy as a pro that he's snubbing the White
9:30
Speaker 1: House claiming it was because of the schedule when the
9:34
Speaker 1: schedule is not the reason he got tripped up by
9:37
Speaker 1: the Raiders website. Raiders dot com tripped him up Fernando Mendoza.
9:41
Speaker 1: That's a rookie mistake. Rule number one, do not let
9:46
Speaker 1: the internet fact checking get you in real time. So
9:51
Speaker 1: bad job by you, and so skip it if you
9:54
Speaker 1: want again and do what you want. I would go
9:57
Speaker 1: whoever the president is. I would want to be at
9:59
Speaker 1: the White House. I think that'd be a cool experience
10:02
Speaker 1: to be part of it. He didn't want to go.
10:03
Speaker 1: That's fine. Just don't insult my intelligence and your intelligence
10:08
Speaker 1: with this phantom excuse which doesn't work. All right. Meanwhile,
10:12
Speaker 1: the last thing we go now to merch madness, not
10:15
Speaker 1: march madness, merch madness, where we have now learned the
10:19
Speaker 1: most popular player picked in last month's NFL draft is survey,
10:24
Speaker 1: says the Downs Caleb Downs. He was the eleventh overall
10:32
Speaker 1: pick in the draft and he's number one over as
10:37
Speaker 1: the top selling jersey. According to the fine folks over
10:41
Speaker 1: at Fanatic, they make only the greatest products in the world.
10:44
Speaker 1: There's never shoddy merchandise from Fanatics unless there is. Are
10:48
Speaker 1: the people of Fanatics announcing that Cowboys rookie safety Caleb
10:51
Speaker 1: Downs is the leader in the clubhouse right now. He
10:55
Speaker 1: has sold the most merch the most jerseys of all
10:59
Speaker 1: the players picked in the twenty twenty six draft, Downs
11:02
Speaker 1: leads the way. The most shocking part of this, the
11:06
Speaker 1: most shocking part of this is that Raiders quarterback Fernando Mendoza.
11:12
Speaker 1: We're just talking about Fernando Mendoza. He was the number
11:16
Speaker 1: one overall pick in the draft. So, Fernando Mendoza, where
11:20
Speaker 1: does he rank among all the rookies? He's got to
11:22
Speaker 1: be like number two, right, number two pick? No? Number
11:24
Speaker 1: two in the Fanaticsly, no, he's not number two. How
11:27
Speaker 1: about number number three? No, turns out, Fernando Mendoza is
11:34
Speaker 1: not in the top three in Jersey sales despite being
11:37
Speaker 1: the top pick. He's not even the top quarterback. Say what, Yeah,
11:41
Speaker 1: Mendoza lands at number five. He's number five, and that
11:46
Speaker 1: is one spot behind the pitt Sperg Steelers rookie quarterback
11:52
Speaker 1: Drew Aller, who is a third round pick, and he
11:56
Speaker 1: is fourth on the Jersey merchandise list. How about that?
12:01
Speaker 1: Caleb Downs number one, and then all Yodell further and
12:07
Speaker 1: Drew Aller and then number five is Fernando Mendoza. Wow?
12:13
Speaker 1: All right? Question? What stands out about the Cowboys safety
12:16
Speaker 1: Caleb Downs having the NFL's top selling rookie jersey. All right,
12:22
Speaker 1: so these are impulse purchases. We know the Cowboys despite
12:27
Speaker 1: thirty years of suck, and the Cowboys their jersey sales
12:32
Speaker 1: are fine, Like popularity is not an issue. Just by
12:37
Speaker 1: wearing that laundry you become more popular. My god, the
12:41
Speaker 1: Cowboys have two rookies in the top three, proving again
12:46
Speaker 1: that thirty years of garbage, of absolute sloppy, mixed slop
12:52
Speaker 1: on the football field does not slow down business. That
12:55
Speaker 1: the cash registers are still humming along here. However, more importantly,
12:59
Speaker 1: when the third round quarterback Drew Aller of now the
13:05
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh Steelers is out selling the top pick, the number
13:10
Speaker 1: one overall pick in the NFL draft, that is not market.
13:15
Speaker 1: That is not some kind of market mistake. It's not
13:18
Speaker 1: inefficiency of the market. That is a warning light flashing wooo.
13:24
Speaker 1: It's flashing if Jersey sales measure belief, if you judge
13:30
Speaker 1: Jersey says, which is pretty good, right, Most people buy
13:33
Speaker 1: these things right as the draft is going on. It's
13:36
Speaker 1: an impulse purchase. You're like, oh good, we got a
13:39
Speaker 1: guy that's gonna be great. Let's get that merch. We're
13:41
Speaker 1: gonna buy the jersey. We're on our way, right, if
13:44
Speaker 1: that was the case, if jersey sales were believed, Greater
13:48
Speaker 1: Nation is currently pleading the fifth is what they're doing
13:51
Speaker 1: on this guy. And I don't blame them. It's embarrassing
13:54
Speaker 1: the guy that's supposed to be the franchise savior, Fernando Mendoza,
13:58
Speaker 1: and he's being outselling by as he's being outsold by
14:01
Speaker 1: a safety for the Dallas Cowboys, not a linebacker, not
14:05
Speaker 1: a linebacker, not a defensive tackle, not an offensive back,
14:08
Speaker 1: a safety, a safety, right, And the Raider fans, they're
14:13
Speaker 1: not excited, they're hibernating. There's some hibernation going on at
14:17
Speaker 1: this particular point. So you draft a quarterback first. Overall,
14:20
Speaker 1: you do that to energize the base. You're firing up
14:23
Speaker 1: the base, getting everyone outside all gung hole, and instead
14:28
Speaker 1: everyone just seemingly hit the snooze button. And again, I
14:32
Speaker 1: don't blame them. I don't see a lot of optimism.
14:35
Speaker 1: I'm never wrong about these things. At Fernando Mendoza. I
14:37
Speaker 1: didn't see a guy that's gonna break out and be
14:39
Speaker 1: this big megastar in the NFL. The ceiling appears to
14:42
Speaker 1: be pretty average. It's like a new version of Derek Carr.
14:46
Speaker 1: Remember the Raiders had average a quarterback for many, many
14:49
Speaker 1: years with Derek Carr, and he was average, and they
14:52
Speaker 1: didn't win anything, and he'd malfunction in big games. That
14:55
Speaker 1: appears to be the same situation with Fernando Mendoz. So
15:00
Speaker 1: if these sales are a referendum on the hype train,
15:05
Speaker 1: the Raiders just failed the first public vote, So good
15:09
Speaker 1: luck on that. It is the Ban Malor Show. If

Speaker 1: Ben Malor. If you'd like to be part of the program,
18:32
Speaker 1: see here. I can't read that on the air, Robbie
18:37
Speaker 1: the Mariner fans is hopefully you don't. You didn't dislocate
18:40
Speaker 1: your entire body with that massive reach of a monologue
18:44
Speaker 1: on Fernando Mendoza snubbing the president and that by Mendoza
18:49
Speaker 1: not having the top selling jersey, he will somehow make
18:51
Speaker 1: him a bus But I didn't say that, Robbie the
18:53
Speaker 1: Marina fan, you might want to go to an ear doctor. Robbi,
18:55
Speaker 1: you got some big ears. That means you got a
18:57
Speaker 1: lot of puss, a lot of oozing puss in your ear.
19:00
Speaker 1: There's Robbie. What I said was if you listen, so
19:03
Speaker 1: nobody listens. I merely pointed out that you would think
19:07
Speaker 1: if you're the everyone agrees you're the greatest thing in
19:10
Speaker 1: the world as a quarterback, you're gonna have the top
19:12
Speaker 1: selling jersey. The Raiders haven't been good in a generation,
19:16
Speaker 1: and yet he's being beaten out by a third round
19:20
Speaker 1: pick in terms of popularity. And if you don't think
19:23
Speaker 1: popularity matters, if you don't think that the top of
19:27

27:29
Speaker 1: The Maestro of the UFC, Dana White, worried about the
27:35
Speaker 1: weather at the upcoming UFC event at the White House
27:39
Speaker 1: as they are preparing for that and it'll be here
27:41
Speaker 1: before you know it. And supposedly Dana White reaching out
27:45
Speaker 1: to the United States Military because they have nothing else
27:47
Speaker 1: going on, to get the updated special military weather forecast
27:54
Speaker 1: for the event. Because if there's lightning, there is no event.
27:58
Speaker 1: And they're spending a lot of more, a lot of
28:01
Speaker 1: money to make this happen. So they're trying to line
28:04
Speaker 1: everything up, get it ready to go. And if it's
28:06
Speaker 1: not ready to go, okay, then you can't have the
28:10
Speaker 1: event because there's no dome. It's on the lawns of
28:14
Speaker 1: the White House. So they're trying to figure that out
28:16
Speaker 1: right now. Imagine that phone call, Uh, Dana White calling
28:20
Speaker 1: the Pentagon. Yeah, Hey, it's uh, it's the Pentagon. Hey
28:23
Speaker 1: it's a it's a Dana Data White. He Yeah, why
28:25
Speaker 1: are you calling the Pentagon? Well, I'm doing I'm doing
28:27
Speaker 1: an MMA event at the White House. Okay, great, congratulations
28:30
Speaker 1: where you were and you were fighting wars? H No,
28:33
Speaker 1: but I need to know the weather. Can you give
28:34
Speaker 1: me the long term weather? Fork? What are you talking about?
28:36
Speaker 1: It's wrong with you? How dare you so stupid? So dumb? My? My, my, my, mond?
28:44
Speaker 1: I say hello to Scott. Why are you there? Scott?
28:47
Speaker 1: I thought we already talked to you. Didn't we already
28:48
Speaker 1: take your call? Scott? I swore we took your phone call.
28:50
Speaker 1: Why are you calling back? Why are you back?
28:52
Speaker 5: I'm calling because the birthplace a UFC was in Boston.
28:55
Speaker 5: Like I was kind of young, but I started get started.
28:57
Speaker 5: Like Dana White had these gyms in South Boston. Whitey
29:00
Speaker 5: was still running stealthy then, so he had set up
29:03
Speaker 5: some fighters and stuff. So Whitey actually chased Dana White
29:07
Speaker 5: out of Boston. So like, h Dana White's like a
29:09
Speaker 5: pretty tough guy. He's been around the block. Like for
29:11
Speaker 5: a minute, that's a Boston guy, Dana White dead. Spirit
29:14
Speaker 5: of Airlines sale, that's that's going to be built up
29:16
Speaker 5: by the government. But dude, I've been trying to effort
29:18
Speaker 5: you to get into the sports hub. I don't know
29:20
Speaker 5: when you're getting to Boston. But I wanted you to
29:22
Speaker 5: get on like the Joe Show, or like the Going
29:25
Speaker 5: Touch Her and Hiding this morning, so did the old
29:27
Speaker 5: Rich came back, rich on whigh like they pulled like
29:31
Speaker 5: the rug out from underneath us. And then all of
29:33
Speaker 5: a sudden, Rich and Ted Johnson came back. And then
29:35
Speaker 5: I told Ted Johnson that he smoked his NFL career
29:38
Speaker 5: through a crack pipe. And I told Rich that he
29:39
Speaker 5: sucked up radio. And there's a radio war here in Boston.
29:42
Speaker 5: You're coming in right in the middle of the radio war.
29:43
Speaker 1: Oh good, I'm ready, man, I got my bunker.
29:46
Speaker 5: But Benny's talking to be Coop talking to me off
29:49
Speaker 5: fastand why can't I take medication? I take at age
29:52
Speaker 5: related regression from autism, and I'm trying to use it
29:55
Speaker 5: in this radio war?
29:57
Speaker 1: What is he talking about, Coop? What is this age regression? What?
30:02
Speaker 1: I'm not sure? I just how many personalities does Scott
30:07
Speaker 1: have to this point at least? For he has the
30:09
Speaker 1: demon one where if I say something he doesn't like,
30:13
Speaker 1: he snaps and says, I want to ruin you. And
30:15
Speaker 1: well that's all I said. It was. I was like,
30:17
Speaker 1: why don't you take medication? Because because he hasn't. I mean,
30:20
Speaker 1: we used to have plenty of conversations where he didn't
30:23
Speaker 1: get very angry. Exactly right. I've known I've known him
30:26
Speaker 1: longer than you, and we go way back, and we
30:28
Speaker 1: were you know, we were using young pup back in the day.
30:31
Speaker 1: And uh, Scott, when I get on some medication brings
30:35
Speaker 1: up a good point here, get that under control.
30:36
Speaker 5: Have a medication I could take so the side effect
30:38
Speaker 5: could be worse than the treatment. And then I've dealt
30:41
Speaker 5: with a lot. It's CPSD just for you. But I
30:43
Speaker 5: actually have a missing chromosome. It's I'm missing a whole
30:46
Speaker 5: chromozoon on my ex gene. That's why I went deaf
30:49
Speaker 5: in one ear and blind. So like I'm actually missing
30:52
Speaker 5: some sensory issues that have to do with my central
30:54
Speaker 5: nervous system. So I actually can use the medical kind
30:57
Speaker 5: of nuts with the harm. People always fright in their
30:58
Speaker 5: lives to make people feel So make people's wives show
31:01
Speaker 5: and comfortable and everything. You know what I mean, that's
31:03
Speaker 5: actually wrong, that's wrong.
31:05
Speaker 1: You should do that. I mean, you know right from wrong? Right,
31:07
Speaker 1: you know right from wrong?
31:08
Speaker 5: And yeah, that's wrong. So you're supposedly that's number one.
31:10
Speaker 5: That's wrong. You're not supposed to do onless to try
31:13
Speaker 5: to get Ben mad, you know, on the weekends. You
31:14
Speaker 5: know what I mean.
31:15
Speaker 1: No, I'd be wrong to do that.
31:17
Speaker 5: You're gonna go, You're going to go onto the sports.
31:19
Speaker 1: I don't if they haven't reached out, If they reach

Speaker 1: my numbers, so or social media whatever. Anyway, all right,
31:35
Speaker 1: it is the Ben Mallor show. What does Scott care
31:40
Speaker 1: if I do that? It's very odd he wants me

31:46
Speaker 1: me on their shows anyway, So they're doing their own thing.
