  Speaker 1: for Hot Take Land. And we are never pressed for
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: time unless we are. By the clock, for the clock,
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: plausibly all about the clock. That's how we do it.
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: Coast to coast, border to border, and beyond, on the
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: vast and whimsically powerful microphones of FSR emanating live. Going live!

  Speaker 1: They reached out. They said, hey, Mallard, who's the king?
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: I said, I don't know who the king is, but

• 3:21
  Speaker 1: I don't think DraftKings has this, but if they had
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: a prop bet on when so-and-so would get hurt, like
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: which star player would get hurt, you'd make a killing.
• 3:30

• 4:16
  Speaker 1: to our lead in a minute. We had a World
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: Series game that went the way of the Rays in
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: extra innings. A thriller from the trop as Tampa Bay.
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: Looked like they were about to lose in extra innings.
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: Won 12 innings. And the Brewers took the lead. They're
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: set up. They're three outs away. They had all the
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: beer and the champagne and all the razzle-dazzle ready to
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: go to celebrate the Brewers winning the World Series. And
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: they had to rip all that stuff down because the
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: Rays avoided a sweep. A stunning rally in the 12th inning.
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: As they end up coming up with the win. And
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: the Brewers first postseason loss. In 21 days. It's been
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: three weeks. Since the Brewers last lost. And there you go.
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: So another game tonight on Fox. And this is the
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: pivot point. We did a monologue about this earlier. But
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: this is really the pivot point. The Miz is on
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: the mound. In that game tonight. And you figure well
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: the Brewers have to win with him on the mound.
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: If they somehow F this up. And it's 3-2 going
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: into Game 6. All of a sudden, the pendulum swings back.
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: Tight tuchus syndrome, as we call it, goes back to
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: the Brewers. And all of a sudden, it's like, wait
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: a minute. If we lose this, it's Game 7. Winner
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: take all. Anything goes into Game 7. So there's a
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: lot on the line tonight. It might just seem like, ah,
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: it's just a fait accompli. The Brewers are going to win.
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: They should win with Mizorowski on the mound. You start
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: messing around. You start futzing around. Next thing you know, what, whoa. Now,
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: speaking of what, whoa, I fully admit that I am
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: a total sucker for Jerry. And our lead this hour
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: from Dallas following a near 10-minute, 10-minute conversation caught on
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: camera because it was on the field before a Monday
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: night football game. Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said on his
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: weekly radio show that he could and would bring Troy
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: Aikman into a significant organizational role. He then sang the
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: praises of Troy Aikman. And his football knowledge and his
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: work ethic. He did not talk about his love of
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: Joe Buck. Because there is no love of Joe Buck!
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: All right. Anyway, Aikman, who's hanging on by a thread
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: there at Espen. That little cable outfit out of Bristol, Connecticut.
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: And his future is not looking so good, at least
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: if he plans on continuing to do Monday Night Football.
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: Joe Buck got an extension. And Aikman did not. Aikman
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: has publicly flirted with the idea of going to the Cowboys.
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: He lives in Dallas and lives in Dallas. He's got
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: a house in Santa Barbara, who knows where else. Anyway,
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: he has been a consultant most recently with the Miami Dolphins.
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: That's going very well. That is going very well, unless
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: it's not. Now, not only is Aikman said to be
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: in the running, there's also some whispers in the echo
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: chamber saying, that another failed broadcaster, Tony Romo, he knows
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: where all the good bars are. Tony Romo is a
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: possibility as well after he was decommissioned by CBS for
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: driving all boozed up in Wisconsin. So let's focus in
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: on Aikman. We're going to focus on the Aikman part
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: of the story and Jerry commenting on his radio show.
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: That's a good jumping off point. So let us discuss Aikman.
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: So how much stock do you put in Cowboys owner
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: and GM Jerry Jones saying that he could and would
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: hire television's Troy Aikman in a prominent role with the
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys? So I've got Sonic the Hedgehog, Brazilian Acai Bowl,
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: and Confucius. And we will combine all of these things
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: together and we are going to Be a cockeyed optimist,
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: otherwise known as my split personality, Benny Brightside. Yes. All right,
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: so first of all, how much stalk do we put
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: in Jerry Jones going on the radio and saying, oh, yeah,
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: I could and would hire Troy Aikman? This is a
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: penny stalk is what it is. It's a penny stalk.
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: Jerry Jones did not say that he will hire Troy Aikman.
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: He didn't say that. He said he could hire Troy Aikman.
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: Could is the Cadillac Escalade of weasel words. It is
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: the ultimate escape hatch. You know how you call a
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: car service and they usually bring a Cadillac Escalade if
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: you're bougie, like in New York or somewhere like that.
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: I see them all the way, all around here. We
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: do the show from LA and there's a bunch of
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: Cadillac Escalades all over the place, driving the important people around.
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: But could, again, is the Cadillac Escalade of the weasel words.
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: It's the ultimate escape hatch. In the English language. I could.
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: I could win the Powerball. I could become a Power Ranger.
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: I could.
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: So, Jerry gets all the upside of making it seem
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: like it's a promise. It's the same deal as we
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: get with... Every year, every time you go shopping, it's
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: up to 50% off, 75% off, and you don't read
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: the fine print, select items. and there's other things involved
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: in that. But Jerry gets all the excitement of how
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: people think that he's going to go out and hire Aikman.
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: There's no accountability because Jerry, over the years, we've learned
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: he's fluent in three different languages. What are the languages?
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: Thanks for asking. Jerry is fluent in English. Texan, and
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: most importantly, plausible deniability. Plausible deniability. The man is the
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: human version of Sonic the Hedgehog. He's turned hedging into
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: an Olympic sport. Now, meanwhile, the sports media, and my
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: hand is raised, I'm guilty. The sports media industrial complex, listen,
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: eating out of Jerry's hand. We're just eating out of
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: Jerry's hand at this point. like pigeons in the park.
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: We're just munching away, and that's it. And Jerry has
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: us all trained. We're like Pavlov's dogs. We are. He
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: rings the Cowboys bell, goes on a little radio show,
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: spends 10 minutes standing on the field playing grab ass
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: with Troy Aikman, throws down a few breadcrumbs, and everybody
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: comes flopping in every direction, salivating. What did Jerry say?
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: The man has mastered the art for it. 30-plus years.
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: It's been forever. It's been almost 40 years. Can you
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: believe that? Jerry bought the team in the late 80s,
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: and we're only a few years away from the 40th anniversary.
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: But Jerry, you look at what he's done. He's mastered
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: the art of saying everything without actually saying anything. It
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: is a skill. Major corporations spend a lot of money
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: to hire professionals to say nothing but sound like you're
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: saying something. All right, secondly, staying on the field, we
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: have a developing story. The reason I'm bringing this up,
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: we'll stay with Dallas, because the trade deadline is November 10th.
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: The Colts started unloading, which is a rather odd move.
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: The Colts don't have their first-round pick, yet they're tanking
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: to help the Jets out, which is very kind of
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: them to do that. They traded an offensive lineman, a
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: defensive player in the first part of the purge. on
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: the trade rumor mill, which is no longer a rumor.
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: It's a fact. It happened on Tuesday. But the Cowboys
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: are an interesting team. They beat the Eagles. They're not
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: a good team. They did beat the Eagles. We beat
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: the backup quarterback of the Eagles. And there's some debate
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: whether or not Jerry Jones would ever unload a certain
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: unhappy wide receiver. I bring this up because Coach Brian
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: Schottenheimer publicly challenged George Pickens, George, George, George, George Pickens,
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: to improve the run blocking and embrace doing the dirty
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: work required to be a top starting receiver in the NFL.
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: So against Philadelphia, they went back and tracked how much
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: George Pickens played. It turns out that he played 12
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: fewer snaps than someone named Ryan Flanoy. And including just
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: 13 running plays compared to Flanoy's 28, Pickens received only
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: six targets. He did score a touchdown, but only six targets.
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: Asked about the limited involvement being an afterthought in the Cowboys' offense,
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: Pickens said, quote, I'm doing what they tell me to do,
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: close quote. All right, here's the question. What is the
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: temperature in the Cowboy locker room, the temperature in the
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: Cowboy locker room around George Pickens? So Shawnee, Brian Schottenheimer,
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: I actually think he's making a reasonable demand. This is
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: not an outrageous demand by Schottenheimer. And it's not a
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: one-man Broadway production when you're playing in the NFL. And
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: even the star-wide receivers do have to roll up their
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: sleeves and do some of the dirty work. And you've
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: got to block. And if you don't block, it doesn't
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: matter how great the offensive line blocks and how great
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: everyone up front blocks if the A player coming off
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: the edge runs through the wide receiver. That's not going
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: to get her done. But you already knew that. You
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: already knew that. This was a message from Shawnee. It
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: was a message in a bottled snap count. How many
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: snaps did these guys get? And George Pickens, when you
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: look at how little he actually played and was targeted,
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: it was a soft benching. A shadow ban. He was
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: shadow banned by the Cowboys offensive algorithm is what it was.
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: And they're not taking away his Instagram account. Thank God
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: for that. Or his ex account. They're taking away his
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: offensive snaps and they're trying to convince it would appear
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: based on just observing what's going on in Dallas. They're
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: trying to get him to do something. The grunt work
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: to be the lumberjack. You got to be the lumberjack.
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: You got to chop down the trees. You got to
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: clear the brush. You got to do all that. Now, meanwhile, Pickens,
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: it's pretty obvious he wants to be the guy living
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: in the luxury log cabin. on the top of the
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: hill overlooking the forest. With room service, he would like
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: the room service to deliver the Brazilian acai bowl while
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: he's sitting in that log cabin enjoying the view. Now
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: Pickens is playing, last I checked, for a new contract.
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: He's on a franchise tag. And so right now, at
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: this moment, he is renting a room, George Pickens, in
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: the very back of Shottie's doghouse.
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: Arf, arf, arf, arf.
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: Just like that.
• 15:44
  Speaker 4: So.
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: Month-to-month lease, no security deposit, and the eviction notice could
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: be coming here before November 10th. Don't you have to
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: call and work out the contract stuff? There's always a
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: way to futz around with the salaries and all that.
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: But don't you think if you're Kansas City or some
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: of these other teams that need help at wide receiver,
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: you're going to say, hey, how much would it take
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: to get George Pickens? You at least make that phone call.
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: So it is a contract year nightmare. Pickens is getting
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: fewer snaps, fewer targets, fewer dollars as a result. So
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: it's a total powder keg for Jerry Jones to navigate this.
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: And it's a powder keg, a stick of dynamite, and
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: a Roman candle stuffed into Jerry Jones' luxury box. Good luck.
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: All right, final point. To New Jersey, where the Giants are,
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: if you believe the New York media, and they're never wrong,
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: the New York media, the Giants now have a quarterback dilemma. Oh,
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: my God. Yes, New York now has two, two quarterbacks
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: in their early 20s, former first-round quarterbacks, Jackson Dart and J.J. McCarthy,
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: who was excommunicated from the Church of the Vikings.
• 17:09
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: And that's where they are. So creating a possible quagmire
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: going forward. The GM Joe Shane of the Giants insisting
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: there is no problem. He said it. There's no problem
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: to have two young guys with Jackson and JJ, both
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: talented players. It's a good position to be in. Close quote.
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: All right. So Dart suffered a season-ending snap, crackle, pop injury.
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: And then the Giants called up the Minnesota football team
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: and said, hey, what can we get for, what do
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: you want for J.J.
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: McCarthy?
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: And the Vikings said, we will drive him to the airport.
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: We will have a limo pick him up when he
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: gets to the destination. Please just take this guy. Please
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: take this guy. And so that's how that went down.
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: So the question, here's the question. Quickly! Is Giants GM
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: Joe Shane sitting on a quarterback gold mine, a quarterback
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: gold mine with Jackson Dart and J.J. McCarthy, or is
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: this a football landfill? You make the call. So the
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: GM Joe Shane with the Giants is standing on top
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: of a mountain of garbage. He is. It's a mountain
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: of garbage. Holding two Keno cards. In each hand, he's
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: got a Keno card telling everybody, I've discovered the buried treasure.
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: I'm going to win the game of Keno. It's going
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: to happen. Now, until proven otherwise, it is a lane
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: fill at the quarterback position. Joe Shane's, the Giants are prospecting,
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: trying to find gold. They're trying to find gold. Unfortunately,
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: they're using a plastic shovel. from Toys R Us. Not
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: very effective. So at this moment, Jackson Dart and J.J.
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: McCarthy are not, last I checked, the reincarnation of Patrick
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: Mahomes or Josh Allen. Neither Dart nor McCarthy is a
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: force multiplier. What are you talking about, Mallory? Did you
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: see McCarthy? Did you see the Giants offense? Did you
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: see what they, oh, they were so good, Mallory. You
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: don't watch the games. Okay. Take a breath. Take a breath.
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: Not exactly rising tide. J.J. McCarthy's not a rising tide
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: lifting all the boats. He's not that. And these are
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: two guys, you have to do it consistently, more than
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: a game and a half, before we... anoint you. These
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: guys are paddling around the kiddie pool and if McCarthy's performance, J.J.
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: McCarthy's performance is authenticated... which it cannot be in a
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: couple of weeks, even if he goes out and plays
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: great in the next Giants game, it doesn't matter. If
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: it does turn out that McCarthy has a little razzle-dazzle
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: to him, then the volcano bubbles over fast. Because last
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: I checked, you can only play one. And the ancient
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: philosopher Confucius once said, or maybe it was some disgruntled
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: offensive coach, If you have two quarterbacks, you don't really
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: have one. So that's it. And one of those guys,
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: if McCarthy shows that he's got a little something, then
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: that means one of the two, whether it's McCarthy or
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: Jackson Dart, will go back into the transfer portal. Before
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: everyone gets all horny for J.J. McCarthy, remember, the Vikings,
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: he must have really been the leader of all a-holes
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: in Minnesota for them to desperately try to get rid
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: of this guy. You must have been serving up bleach.
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: You get some bleach. You get some bleach. You get
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: some bleach. It is the Ben Maller Show. It's a

• 21:30
  Speaker 1: has ended up back in the tabloids. What did Tiger
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: Woods do now? What did he do? And a race

  Speaker 5: Welcome to Football Doesn't Lie.
• 22:11
  Speaker 6: Hi, I'm Bill Parcells.
• 22:13
  Speaker 5: And I'm Catherine Zazzora.
• 22:14
  Speaker 7: I have a lot of experience in the game of football, Catherine.
• 22:18
  Speaker 5: And I'm learning the game with Bill's help. Every week,
• 22:21
  Speaker 5: we're going to talk about the NFL slate through the
• 22:23
  Speaker 5: lens of Bill's expertise as he coaches me from novice
• 22:26
  Speaker 5: fan to football expert over the course of the season.
• 22:29
  Speaker 7: You know, I'm looking forward to this show, Catherine, and
• 22:32
  Speaker 7: hopefully we can give our audience a little in-depth look
• 22:35
  Speaker 7: into the inner sanctum of pro football that they can't
• 22:38
  Speaker 7: get anywhere else.
• 22:39
  Speaker 5: Tune in every Thursday for unfiltered stories from Coach Parcells,
• 22:43
  Speaker 5: analysis on the state of the modern game, and education
• 22:46
  Speaker 5: on how football really works.
• 22:48
  Speaker 6: Continuity is very important but what happens when you get
• 22:52
  Speaker 6: good coaches on your staff and people begin to recognize
• 22:56
  Speaker 6: them then they want to hire them and then you
• 22:59
  Speaker 6: can't stop a guy from trying to improve himself but
• 23:02
  Speaker 6: you have to replace.
• 23:03
  Speaker 5: Them Because once you understand what's going on inside the
• 23:07
  Speaker 5: mind of the coaches, you'll understand more about the whole game.
• 23:10
  Speaker 6: So all aspects can be discussed.
• 23:13
  Speaker 7: The only thing I haven't done, because I didn't have
• 23:15
  Speaker 7: enough money, I don't own the team.
• 23:17
  Speaker 6: I never owned a team.
• 23:19
  Speaker 5: Listen to Football Doesn't Lie on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts,
• 23:23
  Speaker 5: or wherever you get your podcasts.

• 23:32
  Speaker 1: All new callers. You can join the fun on a
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: newbie night. We do it once a month or so.
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: And say hello at 877-99 on Fox. That's 877-996-6369. Also
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: on the X Machine at Ben Maller. That's at Ben Maller.
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: You can say hello to Lorena. FSR Tech Queen.
• 24:04
  Speaker 5: Meow.
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: And Koopa Loop at a Bronco fan. That's a Bronco fan.
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: Your comments can and will be used against you in
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: the court of sports radio, so please act accordingly. Book him.
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: I have a fun fact. Does anyone want a fun fact?
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: I have a fun fact. I would love it. So
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: the Milwaukee Brewers lost last night, so they will not
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: sweep the World Series. The Brewers lost. So that means
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: no team has been able to sweep the League Championship
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: Series and the World Series in the same year since when?
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: That would be many, many years ago. A team called
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: the Cincinnati Reds. In fact, the Reds are the only team.
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: The only team to sweep the LCS and the World
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: Series the same year. And no Major League Baseball team
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: has done it in the seven-game series period. The two
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: best-of-seven series. No NBA team has been able to sweep
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: the final two rounds. And only NHL teams, the only
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: teams that have done it in the best-of-seven, the Penguins
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: of 1992... The Islanders of the 80s, the Boston Bruins
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: back in 1970, the Canadians in 1960, and the Red
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: Wings in 1952. So the Brewers had that. They could
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: have joined the Reds as the only teams to do it.
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: As far as the ratings are concerned for the World Series,
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: we don't have the ratings for Game 3. The World
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: Series ratings were down. This is how pathetic this matchup
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: is in terms of hype. Everyone expected it to be
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: the ratings Armageddon. The ratings are only down 6%. So, like, oh,
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: people are celebrating. This is great. It's only down 6%.
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: That's within the margin of error. That's awesome. We'll see
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: what Game 3 did when it was 10-1. And then
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: last night, Game 4, which was close and won extra innings.
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: Let's say hello to Andy, who somehow got caught in
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: a time warp thing. I don't know what happened. It's
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: newbie night. You've been on hold way too long, Andy.
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: I'm going to give you a golden ticket. You get
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: a golden ticket. You get a golden ticket.
• 26:19
  Speaker 6: I've got a golden ticket. I've got a golden ticket.
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: I apologize, Andy. I don't know how that happened, but
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: you're on the air now.
• 26:26
  Speaker 4: Welcome. Welcome.
• 26:28
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 26:28
  Speaker 4: I'll enjoy that chocolate bar with it. Hello, Big Ben
• 26:32
  Speaker 4: and Ray Ray. I'm a newbie.
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: Newbie, newbie, newbie. We need a newbie drop. We've got
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: to get a newbie drop. I'm going to work on
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: finding a newbie drop. I'm going to find a newbie drop.
• 26:46
  Speaker 4: You just got one.
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: Do it again. Do it again. Do it again.
• 26:50
  Speaker 4: I'm a newbie.
• 26:55
  Speaker 5: You sound like a cow.
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: But that was too long. I need a shorter version.
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: It's got to be real rat-a-tat-tat. It can't be rat-a-tat-tat-tat-tat-tat-tat.
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: It's got to be rat-a-tat.
• 27:03
  Speaker 4: I'm a newbie.
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: Does that work, Lorena?
• 27:07
  Speaker 4: No?
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: She doesn't seem excited about that. I don't know why.
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: But it's a good effort. Yeah.
• 27:13
  Speaker 4: Sorry.
• 27:13
  Speaker 3: Anyhow, after the trades and everything here, what do you
• 27:18
  Speaker 3: think about the NFC West?
• 27:20
  Speaker 4: I'm a Seahawks guy.
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: So you want me to give you Seahawks propaganda and
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: all that?
• 27:25
  Speaker 4: I just want to know your thoughts.
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: Who's going to win the West? All right. Well, it's
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: either going to be Seattle or San Francisco. Obviously, the
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: Rams have pretty much knocked themselves out of that, although
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: I don't trust the 49ers because they've got an older roster,
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: a bunch of guys already hurt. It's only going to
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: get worse as we get later in the season, once
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: we get to Thanksgiving and all that. My God, another
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: month from now. That's going to be a wreck. And
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: I don't know. You're Seahawks. I still have Sam Darnold-itis.
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: They clearly don't think they're good enough. Otherwise, they wouldn't
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: have made the trade with Indianapolis if they thought their
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: offensive line was good enough and Darnold was able to adjust. Well,
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: I just have a question. What?
• 28:08
  Speaker 3: It needs a perfect.
• 28:09
  Speaker 4: Well, then, you know, how do you.
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: You know, Josh Allen or Jackson, Joe Burrow... But.
• 28:17
  Speaker 4: Sam has a championship already.
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and I would rather have Josh Allen and Lamar
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: Jackson and all those other guys than Sam Darnold. And
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: so would you. If the Bills called up the Seahawks
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: and said, we're going to trade Josh Allen for Sam Darnold,
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: you would be orgasmic. You'd be like, oh my God,
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: this is like the greatest thing in the world. Yes,
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: we'll drive him to Buffalo.
• 28:39
  Speaker 2: Yes. Yes.
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: You're laughing. You know I'm right. You know I'm right.
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: Come on.
• 28:46
  Speaker 2: All right. All right.
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: You guys have a good night.
• 28:49
  Speaker 4: I thought that was a decent drop.
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: All right. Complain to Lorena. I don't know what to
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: tell you. Let's say hello to... Oh, let's go to
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: Rosie in Omaha. Rosie, you're on a newbie night. Hello, Rosie. Welcome.
• 29:03
  Speaker 2: My heart is beating so fast, I can't stand it.
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: Oh, no, no, you're fine.
• 29:09
  Speaker 2: I can do the newbie thing, and I can do
• 29:11
  Speaker 2: it in an accent.
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: Okay, what accent are you going to do?
• 29:15
  Speaker 2: Well, you'll find out in a minute, love, okay? You'll
• 29:18
  Speaker 2: find out in a minute. It's newbie night, it's newbie night.
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: Oh, Lorena seems to like that. I like that one.
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: I think she's got a female bias, though. Say it again,
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: say it again.
• 29:30
  Speaker 2: It's newbie night, it's newbie night.
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: Oh, I like that one. It's beautiful. I think that
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: was good. Thank you. Are you the person that sends
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: the jokes in, Rosie? Is that you?
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: I am the one that sends the jokes in.
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: Oh, well, thank you. You're very funny.
• 29:44
  Speaker 2: Yes, I should have been on your show of shows,
• 29:47
  Speaker 2: but I wasn't born then. So there you go.
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: I understand. It's hard to do something if you're not
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: born yet. It's difficult to do things.
• 29:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly.
• 29:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: I got you. Well, thanks for listening and being a
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: newbie and all that. And you send the jokes in your,
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: now you might have a drop. If Lorena puts that
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: in the system, we might have a newbie drop. So
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: that's exciting.
• 30:06
  Speaker 2: Oh, and I can send you cookies too.
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: Oh, cookies. Now we're, I have had, I've had some issues.
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: I used to bake cookies all the time, but the
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: problem is I ate them, which was a problem. And,
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: and then the other problem is the oven starts futzing
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: around a little bit. I gotta get it fixed.
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: So it's a, Get an Easy-Bake oven.
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: What am I, 10 years old? So now what is
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: the top cookie that Rosie, is it the classic chocolate
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: chip or something exotic? What are we looking at?
• 30:37
  Speaker 2: Snickerdoodles.
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: Yes. That's a solid cookie, the Snickerdoodles. It's my favorite cookie.
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: What is the top cookie in Omaha? Is there like
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: a top cookie there in Omaha?
• 30:49
  Speaker 2: Oh, God. It's probably something with red, like a red
• 30:53
  Speaker 2: velvet cookie because of the Huskers.
• 30:55
  Speaker 4: Oh, yeah.
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: I'm sure. Something like that. I got you. All right. Well, Rosie,
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: thank you so much for listening and sending the jokes
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: and cookies and all that. I appreciate it. So thank you. Shalom.

• 32:33
  Speaker 1: We've got also coming up in a couple minutes, it's
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: a game show, a little thing we call Password, the
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: word game of the stars. Hello, Rob.
• 32:43
  Speaker 4: Hello, hey. Long-time listener, first-time caller. I am a newbie
• 32:48
  Speaker 4: to you guys.
• 32:49
  Speaker 1: Welcome.
• 32:50
  Speaker 4: I had... A joke for you guys that I thought
• 32:58
  Speaker 4: of a long time ago when J.J. Yaley went to
• 33:01
  Speaker 4: the Giants. I thought it might be a controversy, but
• 33:05
  Speaker 4: I also thought this might be a funny thing for
• 33:07
  Speaker 4: him if Jim Carbaugh comes to his senses and realizes
• 33:12
  Speaker 4: that Herbert... is a dog and he wants to reunite
• 33:16
  Speaker 4: with his old quarterback at Michigan and calls his brother
• 33:20
  Speaker 4: up and says, send him out for a fourth round
• 33:22
  Speaker 4: pick and let's give him a shot. How funny would
• 33:24
  Speaker 4: that be?
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: Well, he was traded to a Harbaugh, but it was
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: the other Harbaugh. So that's the, yeah.
• 33:31
  Speaker 4: What if he calls his brother and says, Hey, I'm
• 33:34
  Speaker 4: this guy out here that we've gotten San Diego or
• 33:38
  Speaker 4: LA is not any good, you know, and I'll give
• 33:41
  Speaker 4: him a shot out here. My, uh, The quarterback I
• 33:44
  Speaker 4: had in college.
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: That's not your joke, right? That's not the joke.
• 33:49
  Speaker 4: No, I'm just– I'm thinking that's funny for the whole
• 33:53
  Speaker 4: idea that you were talking about a minute ago that
• 33:56
  Speaker 4: they are like bottom of the barrel scraping, you know.
• 34:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 34:02
  Speaker 4: I enjoy your show and your take on everything.
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: Look at that. I have great takes. Look at that.
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: Piping hot takes every day. Popping hot takes every day.
• 34:13
  Speaker 4: And I've been waiting for this controversy to pop up
• 34:16
  Speaker 4: on the– out of the– Yeah.
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: Out of what?
• 34:21
  Speaker 4: Whatever you want to say.
• 34:22
  Speaker 6: Yeah.

• 35:05
  Speaker 1: of who bitched about that? His name was John. He
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: didn't tell me where he was calling from. So John
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: called up to complain that I gave an erroneous fun fact,
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: that I did not give a complete and total fun
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: fact to approve.

  Speaker 1: first to do it in two best-of-seven series. No NBA
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: team has done it. In the NHL, it has happened,

  Speaker 5: Is that his really attractive daughter that he's attracted to?
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't really pay that close. I
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: have no idea. I've never been dating. I guess she's,
• 36:29
  Speaker 1: is she divorced from somebody with the Trump name? Or
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: is she related to President Trump? I don't know. Good question.
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: I don't know. I have no idea. Anyway, who cares?
