- 0:17Speaker 1: of the apple. Here with the Ben Maler Show podcast,
- 0:20Speaker 1: the original Recipe podcast, which is available to you obviously
- 0:24Speaker 1: right now. Don't forget fifth hour podcast, The Mallard Matchmaker.
- 0:28Speaker 1: The Mallord Matchmaker a surreal experience that took place involving
- 0:36Speaker 1: two people in a different part of the world, a
- 0:39Speaker 1: Major League Baseball game, and a whole lot of wildness.
- 0:43Speaker 1: It's only available in the fifth Hour, and my man
- 0:47Speaker 1: Alf the Alien Opiner says it is up for the
- 0:50Speaker 1: Marconi Award for Podcasting and possibly the Pulitzer Prize. According
- 0:54Speaker 1: to Fergdog. Even Mallard Pop Guy says that all of
- 0:58Speaker 1: the people in his life love the episode even though
- 1:01Speaker 1: they haven't heard it yet, So check that out here
- 1:02Speaker 1: in our one give me the word for Fernando Mendoza's
- 1:06Speaker 1: performance with the Raiders. He played in an exhibition game
- 1:08Speaker 1: last night, and boy did he not do a good job.
- 1:12Speaker 1: We'll talk about that, and what does Houston's hesitation to
- 1:17Speaker 1: pay quarterback CJ. Stroud tell you about how they really
- 1:21Speaker 1: feel about him, how they really view him, and why
- 1:24Speaker 1: did the NFL decide to pick the pockets of the
- 1:27Speaker 1: Cowboys and Saints. Those training camp fights led to a
- 1:31Speaker 1: million dollars in fines. We'll talk about that and more
- 1:34Speaker 1: right now. We also have the who am I game?
- 1:37Speaker 1: This hour? And away we go. It's our number one.
- 1:43Speaker 1: Well it was the Mendoza Dooza. Yikes. Welcome in the
- 1:51Speaker 1: beginning of another night of the Ben Malor Show. We
- 1:56Speaker 1: are in the air evy making a connection as we
- 2:03Speaker 1: trade punches to the outside world, coast to coast, border
- 2:07Speaker 1: to border and beyond on the bast and might I
- 2:11Speaker 1: had unrelentingly powerful microphones of FSR AM modinating live good
- 2:19Speaker 1: live from the army. We're just a foot soldier. All
- 2:22Speaker 1: we are foot soldiers in the audio army, garanteed human
- 2:29Speaker 1: from the world famous Fox Sports radio studios as far out,
- 2:34Speaker 1: Dave and Nick the Wendy's Guy, even Alamdlou all are
- 2:39Speaker 1: marching in lockstep behind Alf Fergdog and Malaprop guys, saying
- 2:44Speaker 1: we need our nightly fix of hot takes. We will
- 2:47Speaker 1: not stand for lukewarm takes. We must get our hot takes.
- 2:52Speaker 1: And if we don't get our hot takes, there will
- 2:55Speaker 1: be hell to pay. And I say, no, what, boys,
- 2:57Speaker 1: We're gonna try to at least go a little higher
- 2:59Speaker 1: than lukewarm. Just a little higher than lukewarm. That is
- 3:03Speaker 1: the goal. We'll see how we do. Now we begin
- 3:06Speaker 1: this hour from the state of Texas. Well, technically it's
- 3:11Speaker 1: back in Vegas, but they were the Vegas football team
- 3:14Speaker 1: was in Houston, and they were playing a exhibition game,
- 3:20Speaker 1: not a real game, not real game, an exhibition game.
- 3:23Speaker 1: And that was the second look little peekaboo at Fernando Mendoza.
- 3:30Speaker 1: Fernando Mendoza, the number one overall pick in the twenty
- 3:36Speaker 1: twenty six NFL Draft, who played the entire first half
- 3:40Speaker 1: of the Raiders practice game against the Texans. Although even
- 3:45Speaker 1: though it was described as a practice game, it was
- 3:50Speaker 1: broadcast by the Fox refugees Joe Buck and Miami Dolphins
- 3:57Speaker 1: consultant Troy Aikman had the call. Ache Ben seemed genuinely
- 4:01Speaker 1: annoyed that he still had to call the game in
- 4:02Speaker 1: the fourth quarter, even though it was actually somewhat close.
- 4:06Speaker 1: And there you go. They were calling it for that small,
- 4:08Speaker 1: little fledgling cable channel out of the woods there in Bristol, Connecticut.
- 4:12Speaker 1: So I don't know if you saw it or not.
- 4:13Speaker 1: Perhaps not. I watched so you would not have to.
- 4:18Speaker 1: At least I had it on the background. I did
- 4:20Speaker 1: pay pretty close attention because I was told by many
- 4:24Speaker 1: experts who wear silver and black that my take about
- 4:28Speaker 1: Fernando Mendoza was completely wrong, and that's why I'm doing
- 4:32Speaker 1: overnight radio. So I watched Fernando Mendoza and I laughed,
- 4:36Speaker 1: and I laughed, and I laughed, and I the guy sucks.
- 4:43Speaker 1: Mendoza struggled to be kind. In his second exhibition game,
- 4:48Speaker 1: he threw a delicious interception that was returned for a
- 4:51Speaker 1: touchdown by a Houston defender and Las Vegas, who was
- 4:56Speaker 1: getting smacked around pretty good. They rallied back against the
- 4:59Speaker 1: fifth string of the t and they celebrated like they
- 5:02Speaker 1: had won the super Bowl, something a Raider team has
- 5:04Speaker 1: not done since the eighties. So you'd imagine they would
- 5:08Speaker 1: celebrate that like it was the super Bowl, because this
- 5:11Speaker 1: is the only time and the other Raiders have a
- 5:12Speaker 1: chance to win some games. So that is a good
- 5:14Speaker 1: jumping off point. Let us discuss the question. Give me
- 5:19Speaker 1: the word, Give me the word for Fernando Mendoza's performance
- 5:24Speaker 1: in week two of the exhibition season for the Raiders.
- 5:27Speaker 1: So I've got team Shop, Nintendo and Cucumber Martiniz and
- 5:34Speaker 1: we will combine all all of these things together and
- 5:38Speaker 1: we're gonna make some fruity two d ice cream is
- 5:40Speaker 1: what we're going to do. So again, to give me
- 5:42Speaker 1: the word, give me the word for vandam Mendoza's performance
- 5:45Speaker 1: with the Raiders. Here, I'm a going to go. My
- 5:48Speaker 1: word is cockpit. That is my word, cud, But why
- 5:52Speaker 1: would you use the word cockpit? You're stupid. That makes
- 5:54Speaker 1: my because I was watching this and f name it.
- 5:57Speaker 1: Fernando Mendoza stepped into the cockpit. He was in the
- 6:01Speaker 1: captain's chair. On the vomit comment, yep, the vomit comment.
- 6:06Speaker 1: You very rarely see the vomit comet in an exhibition game.
- 6:09Speaker 1: We saw the vomit comment. We did, Holy canolly, somebody
- 6:14Speaker 1: grab one of those airsickness bags. Raider fans are puking here,
- 6:18Speaker 1: there and everywhere. Whoa mister number one overall? Pick the
- 6:23Speaker 1: franchise is y'all told me. Now, listen, I got a
- 6:27Speaker 1: stack of emails. If you want to look at my inbox.
- 6:30Speaker 1: Y'all told me that Mendoza is supposed to lead Las
- 6:33Speaker 1: Vegas out of the dungeon they've been in for a generation,
- 6:37Speaker 1: and certainly we thought that was unlikely. Nothing changed our
- 6:40Speaker 1: opinion based on this exhibition game. I will tell you know,
- 6:44Speaker 1: can see, I'm gonna Benny bright Side. I'm not gonna
- 6:45Speaker 1: be a douche Canoe. Don't be a bad guy. I'll
- 6:48Speaker 1: be a nice guy. Listen. I want to compromise with
- 6:51Speaker 1: my friends. I got one of my best friends, a
- 6:53Speaker 1: big Raider fan, A couple of my buddies big Raider fans, right,
- 6:56Speaker 1: and so they were texting me and it was like
- 6:59Speaker 1: the movie Major League, you know, the beginning. We suck it,
- 7:02Speaker 1: you know, we suck all the same old Raiders and
- 7:05Speaker 1: all that at halftime. But here's theal I'll be, Benny
- 7:08Speaker 1: bright said, because I do believe that Fernanda Mendoz will
- 7:11Speaker 1: have a net positive on the business for the Raiders.
- 7:14Speaker 1: He will definitely increase the sales at the Raider Team shop. Now,
- 7:19Speaker 1: I'm not talking about people buying his jersey. I'm not
- 7:22Speaker 1: gonna go down that road because I don't think too
- 7:24Speaker 1: many people will buy his jersey because he sucks, but
- 7:26Speaker 1: he will increase sales at the Raider team shop because
- 7:29Speaker 1: fans will be lined up outside the team shop because
- 7:32Speaker 1: they want to buy that silver and black drama Meine
- 7:36Speaker 1: my god. Now, naturally, the jocksniffers, the media fanboys, they
- 7:41Speaker 1: activated the EEG. You know it's serious when you have
- 7:45Speaker 1: to activate the EEG in an exhibition game. What you're
- 7:50Speaker 1: not familiar with the EEG? What's wrong? Would you really?
- 7:55Speaker 1: What do you think the EEG is? You know? You don't? Okay,
- 8:00Speaker 1: I'll tell you. I'm not going to tell you every
- 8:01Speaker 1: time I use it, but I mean we've used it
- 8:03Speaker 1: in the past. The EEG is the emergency excuse generator,
- 8:07Speaker 1: and what are those excuses? Let's see here, growing pains. Yeah,
- 8:12Speaker 1: I guess he's a teenager. He's still growing. Give him time.
- 8:16Speaker 1: I love that. That's a classic. That's a throwback. Give
- 8:19Speaker 1: him time, Give him time. Yes, it's only preseason. He's
- 8:25Speaker 1: a green banana. I thought he was a human being.
- 8:29Speaker 1: I don't know now. Our rebuttal is one word. Our
- 8:34Speaker 1: rebuttal to the people using the emergency excuse generator is jabberwockie.
- 8:41Speaker 1: That is our rebuttal. Now, as I point out, this
- 8:46Speaker 1: is not a once a year talk show. This is
- 8:49Speaker 1: a daily talk show. It's on every night overnight. It's
- 8:52Speaker 1: really eight days a week. I do a podcast that
- 8:54Speaker 1: called The Fifth Hour on the weekends, which has become
- 8:57Speaker 1: just a labor levels. In our table read, I spent
- 8:59Speaker 1: a ten minutes talking to Lorraina how much I love
- 9:02Speaker 1: doing that podcast every weekend. And now it's really the
- 9:04Speaker 1: light of my right it's my north star. I just
- 9:07Speaker 1: love it so much. I look forward to every every Friday,
- 9:10Speaker 1: Saturday and sound. I cannot wait to go in the
- 9:11Speaker 1: pod studio and record fresh Pod. I just freaking love
- 9:15Speaker 1: the podcast. And so the point is, we have a
- 9:19Speaker 1: program to do right now, So we don't wait until
- 9:22Speaker 1: all this is said and done. We do it right
- 9:23Speaker 1: now in real time. I look at this, I don't
- 9:26Speaker 1: see when I saw Mendoza play, I didn't see, Hey,
- 9:29Speaker 1: it's only preseason. What I saw was a movie trailer,
- 9:33Speaker 1: right like Upcoming Attractions. Mendoza struggled, think about how bad
- 9:38Speaker 1: this is? You know why? It's an exhibition team. That
- 9:40Speaker 1: is true. However, he struggled to make plays against backups
- 9:45Speaker 1: who will be listening to the Ben Malor Show, part
- 9:48Speaker 1: of the Malard Militia soon. Because many of those players
- 9:51Speaker 1: that were on the field for the Texans and the
- 9:53Speaker 1: Raiders for that matter, will be working the overnight shift
- 9:57Speaker 1: at an Amazon fulfillment center near you, so they'll have
- 10:01Speaker 1: their headphones on. And we love the boys at Amazon
- 10:03Speaker 1: that listen to ups and the postal service that listen
- 10:06Speaker 1: all night. You guys keep us going. We thank you
- 10:07Speaker 1: for that. And I'm not besmirching you at all. I'm
- 10:10Speaker 1: just telling you that's who's going to be. That's what
- 10:13Speaker 1: they'll be doing in a couple of weeks. Mendoza faced
- 10:15Speaker 1: also slow churned French vanilla ice cream pass coverage. The
- 10:20Speaker 1: Texas pass coverage was soft creaming and practically begging to
- 10:24Speaker 1: be scooped up. So in two exhibition games, now two
- 10:29Speaker 1: exhibition games, Fernanda Mendoza has a passer rating below seventy
- 10:32Speaker 1: five and a yards per attempt at less than six
- 10:38Speaker 1: and it is completing less than sixty percent of his passes. Yeah,
- 10:41Speaker 1: that seems like it's going pretty well. Yeah, I mean
- 10:44Speaker 1: you understand this was not a third round pick or
- 10:48Speaker 1: a fourth round pick. If it was that, you'd understand.
- 10:51Speaker 1: You say, okay, it was a gigantic overdraft by the Raiders.
- 10:56Speaker 1: It was Listen, I ripped the Rams election of Ty Simpson.
- 11:01Speaker 1: He went out there against the Vanilla defense and carved
- 11:04Speaker 1: up Kansas City like it was a Thanksgiving butterball turkey.
- 11:08Speaker 1: All right, And so I mean, what are you doing
- 11:11Speaker 1: if you cannot go out there and use your Samurai
- 11:14Speaker 1: sword against future package handlers? What the hell's going to
- 11:18Speaker 1: happen when the real predators of the NFL show up.
- 11:22Speaker 1: So at this point I agree with my buddy, same
- 11:25Speaker 1: old Raiders. They drafted a pilot struggling to fly, and
- 11:29Speaker 1: they somehow wonder why the plane violently shakes, stalls out,
- 11:33Speaker 1: and crashes into the absolute abyss. Wonder why wonder why?
- 11:38Speaker 1: All right, Now, there's always possible the Raiders could take
- 11:41Speaker 1: Fernando Mendoz out to Area fifty one and give him
- 11:44Speaker 1: some kind of alien parts and then he'll come back
- 11:48Speaker 1: and be good. Now, the other side of things, Houston,
- 11:51Speaker 1: which looked like they were going to win the game
- 11:53Speaker 1: until the very end, and they lost in the final seconds.
- 11:55Speaker 1: Who cares about that unless you better hunt, and you're
- 11:57Speaker 1: a loser if you better hunt. Shout out Arnie Spanier
- 11:59Speaker 1: and his dog. So the Houston side of things, c
- 12:03Speaker 1: J Stroud. They even played terribly again exhibition and all that.
- 12:08Speaker 1: The story here is not about the game per se.
- 12:10Speaker 1: It's about him discussing a long term contract extension with
- 12:14Speaker 1: the Texans. However, we are hearing from boots on the
- 12:19Speaker 1: ground that these sides are not not close, not close
- 12:24Speaker 1: to an agreement. Okay, so Stroud remains under contract through
- 12:27Speaker 1: twenty twenty seven, are you're very concerned about that? But
- 12:31Speaker 1: his future really beyond this year? You don't bring him back,
- 12:34Speaker 1: lame dug. So this is pretty much that's it for
- 12:37Speaker 1: Stroud if he doesn't play well this year. And this
- 12:40Speaker 1: is one of the storylines. You look at the Texans
- 12:43Speaker 1: and there's not too much compelling talk radio. This is
- 12:46Speaker 1: one of the things that is compelling talk radio, as
- 12:48Speaker 1: Houston's one of those middling teams that's good enough to
- 12:52Speaker 1: get into the playoffs, mainly because of the division they
- 12:55Speaker 1: play in, and then they're exposed like a vampire to
- 12:58Speaker 1: sunlight when they get in the postseason. Detexans are essentially
- 13:03Speaker 1: approaching a high stakes quarterback crossroads is what they're approaching rapidly.
- 13:11Speaker 1: And the question with this, what does Houston's hesitation, clear
- 13:16Speaker 1: hesitation to meet what CJ. Stradd wants financially? What does
- 13:20Speaker 1: that tell you about how they really view CJ. Strod.
- 13:26Speaker 1: All right, so there's a big sign and it's hanging
- 13:30Speaker 1: above his locker. I don't think he sees it, CJ. Strodd.
- 13:33Speaker 1: It says buyer beware. Buyer beware is what it says.
- 13:39Speaker 1: Now Houston would commit contractual malpractice by handing some kind
- 13:45Speaker 1: of record breaking deal to the one hit wonder. It's
- 13:49Speaker 1: like if you have one hit song and you go
- 13:53Speaker 1: several years without a hit song, does the record label
- 13:55Speaker 1: give you more money and say, okay, we got something
- 13:59Speaker 1: No no, After one great rookie season and Stroud was
- 14:04Speaker 1: really good as a rookie, we've got not one but
- 14:07Speaker 1: two years of regression to the mean. And then you say, well,
- 14:11Speaker 1: is that really regression or is this just who he
- 14:13Speaker 1: really is? And that was a fake out opening by
- 14:15Speaker 1: c J. Stroud and the Texans. With a middling passing offense,
- 14:19Speaker 1: the passing yards for Stroud are down. Efficiency has plummeted
- 14:23Speaker 1: at all the nerd stats. The deep ball is not there.
- 14:26Speaker 1: He has not earned the McDonald's Monopoly Sweepstakes grand prize.
- 14:31Speaker 1: He just hasn't earned it. And I know in professional
- 14:34Speaker 1: sports people that don't earn it all the time. The
- 14:36Speaker 1: Little Fella, the Garden Gnome, Alligator Arms Murray got paid.
- 14:41Speaker 1: He didn't earn the money. CJ. Stroud is eventually going
- 14:44Speaker 1: to get paid. He hasn't earned the money. There's a
- 14:46Speaker 1: quarterback with the Chargers who blows he got paid. And
- 14:50Speaker 1: we're talking about, of course, Justin Herbert, who so far
- 14:53Speaker 1: is only elite at making out at practice, not actually
- 14:56Speaker 1: playing in games, in playoff games. So it's a hot mess.
- 15:00Speaker 1: And so I always go by the mantra. And I
- 15:03Speaker 1: know I'm old school, right because I just have had
- 15:05Speaker 1: to do this my career. You've had to scrap, and
- 15:08Speaker 1: I've had to scrap for what I've gotten. I just
- 15:10Speaker 1: like the fact that you have to sing for your supper, right,
- 15:12Speaker 1: So what's wrong with making CJ. Stroud sing and tap
- 15:16Speaker 1: dance for his supper. I have to do it. I'm
- 15:18Speaker 1: assuming you have to do it. And it'd be different
- 15:21Speaker 1: if this guy had proven himself. He hasn't proven himself.
- 15:23Speaker 1: So if i'm the texts, here's what I do. I
- 15:27Speaker 1: hand CJ. Stroud a old school Nintendo with the old
- 15:32Speaker 1: school Nintendo gun, and I tell him we're gonna play
- 15:36Speaker 1: some duck Hunt. We're gonna play old school retro dunk Hut,
- 15:39Speaker 1: and CJ, well, I don't want to do that. We have,
- 15:42Speaker 1: we have better video games, such a boomer. I don't
- 15:44Speaker 1: want to play those games. Well, I don't care, CJ.
- 15:46Speaker 1: This is what we're doing. We're gonna play duck Hunt. Well,
- 15:47Speaker 1: I don't want to do it. I want to play
- 15:48Speaker 1: the new game. We'll just shut up, CJ. You just
- 15:50Speaker 1: gotta do it. Okay, fine, I'll do it. And so
- 15:52Speaker 1: you give him the Nintendo gun, hand to him, and
- 15:56Speaker 1: you're gonna play duck Hunt. And you're not gonna eat
- 15:58Speaker 1: unless you hunt. And you got to catch something, right,
- 16:02Speaker 1: you gotta catch something. I remember reading some stories about
- 16:05Speaker 1: like back in the early days of humanity, and people think, well,
- 16:09Speaker 1: they had there were no walmarts. The people had to
- 16:11Speaker 1: go out and hunt and catch their food, and well
- 16:13Speaker 1: it must have been animals everywhere. No, no, no. The story
- 16:17Speaker 1: is if you went out hunting for your food eight
- 16:19Speaker 1: out of ten times you'd get nothing. So he only
- 16:23Speaker 1: had success about twenty percent of the time. And so
- 16:26Speaker 1: you better have had a lot of success to twenty percent,
- 16:28Speaker 1: because you're a two hundred hitter. You got to earn
- 16:31Speaker 1: your Smorgesborg, is what I'm saying. So, as a distant
- 16:35Speaker 1: relative of Nostradamus and friend of Nostradinas, there is a
- 16:40Speaker 1: better chance that we are heading towards Armageddon meeting the
- 16:44Speaker 1: final days of c. J. Stroud in Houston, which I
- 16:47Speaker 1: know our friend mister Irrigation would be very happy about.
- 16:50Speaker 1: He has complained for years about c J. Stroud. There's
- 16:54Speaker 1: a better chance of that happening than him going out
- 16:56Speaker 1: there and laying the world on fire for the entire season. Now,
- 16:59Speaker 1: is it possible that CJ. Stroud will have a good
- 17:01Speaker 1: game or a couple of good games? Sure, most likely
- 17:03Speaker 1: he will. It's the consistency, and mark my words, and
- 17:07Speaker 1: I'm never wrong about this stuff. If the Texans stumble
- 17:10Speaker 1: out of the gates and Stroud keeps serving yesterday's leftovers
- 17:14Speaker 1: right at the beginning of the year, and they have
- 17:16Speaker 1: a somewhat difficult schedule on a tablet don't be shocked
- 17:20Speaker 1: when Davis Mills attempts to turn into Mighty Mouse. I'm
- 17:25Speaker 1: here to save the day, and he's in there off
- 17:28Speaker 1: the bench, all right. Last word to the principal's office.
- 17:32Speaker 1: We go to the principal's office. We go. The NFL
- 17:36Speaker 1: has done it. The NFL has said no, no, no,
- 17:41Speaker 1: no no to the Saints and the Cowboys. You see this,
- 17:44Speaker 1: the NFL fining America's team and the team from the
- 17:48Speaker 1: Bayou five hundred thousand dollars a piece following a amazingly
- 17:56Speaker 1: entertaining brawl filled joint practice a few days ago. Go now,
- 18:01Speaker 1: the NFL requested video of the practice and then issued
- 18:05Speaker 1: the penalties. Keep in mind, this was not to individual players.
- 18:10Speaker 1: This was not to individual players. This was to the teams.
- 18:13Speaker 1: We talked about in a previous episode. The Nanny who's
- 18:17Speaker 1: the governor of the Nanny State, Mike Florio, wants the
- 18:20Speaker 1: NFL to adjudicate individual player punishment. The NFL didn't do
- 18:24Speaker 1: that here. It is interesting to note it's a team
- 18:27Speaker 1: punishment for Dallas and New Orleans, and the penalties signing
- 18:34Speaker 1: the emphasis on sportsmanship, team responsibility to prevent dangerous behavior,
- 18:39Speaker 1: and a bunch of other illegal leies. Blah blah blah
- 18:41Speaker 1: blah blah blah blah blah blah. Now, Jerry Jones called
- 18:44Speaker 1: the five hundred thousand dollars punishment quote pretty stiff. That's
- 18:49Speaker 1: what Jerry said. And he said Dallas plans to appeal.
- 18:54Speaker 1: He did acknowledge the NFL wanted to send a message,
- 18:58Speaker 1: and a rather strong message, you know, on this one.
- 19:00Speaker 1: Why did the NFL decide to pick the pockets of
- 19:05Speaker 1: the Cowboys and Saints for a practice, not a guy,
- 19:09Speaker 1: not a game, not a game, a practice, as Anon
- 19:11Speaker 1: Iverson said back in the day, And the answer is
- 19:13Speaker 1: rather simple because the only reason, the only reason this
- 19:17Speaker 1: became a finable offense is because it escaped the bubble.
- 19:22Speaker 1: It escaped the football bubble. It got out. It's kind
- 19:26Speaker 1: of like that virus got out of the lab there
- 19:28Speaker 1: in Wutan. Yeah, this got out. This got out, and
- 19:31Speaker 1: it spread around and it humiliated the NFL oligarchs. They
- 19:36Speaker 1: don't want to be sipping their cucumber martinis in the
- 19:40Speaker 1: Hamptons and have someone taught, you know, Tapman show there
- 19:44Speaker 1: at this cocktail party. They're drinking their cucumber martinis with
- 19:47Speaker 1: the other rich people, and it's Hey, it's an NBC
- 19:51Speaker 1: nightly news here asking why did one of the Saints
- 19:54Speaker 1: players drop a German soup plex on a cowboy player
- 19:58Speaker 1: at practice? Can we get a comment? Yeah, Now on
- 20:01Speaker 1: this side of the microphone, it was movie popcorn worth
- 20:06Speaker 1: helmet's flying in the air everywhere, punch is thrown, WrestleMania
- 20:12Speaker 1: style takedowns, just enhanced sun baked roughhousing. That's football. And
- 20:19Speaker 1: yet the league dropped a five hundred thousand dollars fine
- 20:22Speaker 1: on each of these teams. And we mentioned Jerry Jones
- 20:23Speaker 1: called the penalty pretty stiff, which is pretty cute, right,
- 20:29Speaker 1: pretty cute. Jerry's worth twenty billion dollars, which means if
- 20:33Speaker 1: I did the math in my head here, so if
- 20:35Speaker 1: you find Jerry Jones, who's worth twenty billion dollars, five
- 20:39Speaker 1: hundred thousand, So that fine is literally when he's on
- 20:42Speaker 1: his golf stream flying over Little Rock and he drops
- 20:47Speaker 1: a deuce in the toilet on his golf stream, he's
- 20:50Speaker 1: made that money back. He's literally made that money back. Now,
- 20:53Speaker 1: make no mistake, the NFL did not punish violence. They
- 20:58Speaker 1: didn't punish the individual players. They punished the bad optics.
- 21:02Speaker 1: That's why this became a thing. Once the circus elephant
- 21:06Speaker 1: escaped the tent and is running down the street and
- 21:10Speaker 1: made the news crossed over, someone had to pay the
- 21:15Speaker 1: et Now what not extraterrestrial the embarrassment tax. There is
- 21:19Speaker 1: a tax on embarrassment. Rich people do not like to
- 21:22Speaker 1: be embarrassed. You're supposed to maintain a low profiles during
- 21:25Speaker 1: these joint practices. And you didn't do that. Bad job
- 21:28Speaker 1: by you? All right? It is the Ben Mahlor Show.
- 21:32Speaker 1: As we are working our way through the overnight, just
- 21:35Speaker 1: beginning the red eye flight here, and good to have
- 21:39Speaker 1: you hanging out with us. We do appreciate it. Now,
- 21:41Speaker 1: if we look ahead, if you look at your map
- 21:43Speaker 1: there on the back of the seat in front of you,
- 21:46Speaker 1: you'll see that the flight on the overnight here will
- 21:49Speaker 1: take us to the wee hours of the morning. We'll
- 21:53Speaker 1: be passed way past the witching hour in the west.
- 21:57Speaker 1: We're already passed the witching hour in the east. Or
- 21:59Speaker 1: you can get through the witching hour in the west.
- 22:02Speaker 1: We'll go through that now. Later this hour we'll have

- 22:22Speaker 1: little sports Jeopardy for you. So a lot of spinning
- 22:26Speaker 1: plates here, a lot of spinning plates. We never have
- 22:29Speaker 1: supply chain shortages. We always have a lot of supply chain,
- 22:33Speaker 1: a lot of product in the supply chain, all right,
- 22:35Speaker 1: So if you want to be part, he's just time
- 22:37Speaker 1: to get in right now. It gets progressively harder. So
- 22:40Speaker 1: don't send me your emails two hours from now bitching
- 22:42Speaker 1: because you couldn't get in, because I'm telling you right now,
- 22:45Speaker 1: this is the time to do it. And you can
- 22:46Speaker 1: try later. It just can be harder for you to
- 22:48Speaker 1: get in. So that's just the way it is, and

- 26:45Speaker 1: will have the always exciting NFL newest dance sensation the
- 26:52Speaker 1: Hump Dance, not the Humpty the Hump Dance. Well, try
- 26:57Speaker 1: to explain what that is coming up here momentarily. The
- 27:00Speaker 1: Militia has a lot to say, and that includes truck
- 27:03Speaker 1: Stop Fungus, who says, going to be a rough year
- 27:06Speaker 1: for the Raiders, Lucky if they go five and twelve,
- 27:09Speaker 1: sad for Tom Brady. Yeah, Alf, the Alien ol Piners says,
- 27:15Speaker 1: after the thorough review of the Malloor Bureau of Investigations,
- 27:20Speaker 1: the newly named MBI, and I see Alf does have
- 27:23Speaker 1: his identificiation identification card, and we thank you for showing that, Alf,
- 27:28Speaker 1: to make sure that you are official and nobody messes
- 27:31Speaker 1: with the MBI. The newly named MBI, ALF says, after
- 27:36Speaker 1: a thorough review, we have determined that Lucky Tony is
- 27:40Speaker 1: the real deal between the porn addiction, very violent dreams
- 27:45Speaker 1: and bears. He's one hundred per authentic Malard. Militia. Well,
- 27:51Speaker 1: there were some accusations made by our one of our
- 27:54Speaker 1: favorite grocery store workers there in Memphis, Big Daddy, who
- 27:59Speaker 1: claimed that there might be some shenanigans going on with
- 28:02Speaker 1: Lucky Tony, and I hope to meet Lucky Tony at
- 28:04Speaker 1: some point. Hopefully we'll come out to one of the events.
- 28:06Speaker 1: We do eventually. I keep saying that how many years
- 28:09Speaker 1: it's been five years. I said we're going to go
- 28:10Speaker 1: to the Bay Area every year, I say the same thing.
- 28:12Speaker 1: We haven't done an I heard from alame Toluin a
- 28:14Speaker 1: long time, so we'll have to find somewhere else we
- 28:16Speaker 1: go up there. Anyway, we'll hopefully meet him. And it
- 28:20Speaker 1: seems like a great, great guy. And if you have
- 28:24Speaker 1: any like nineteen eighties VHS porn tapes, I think Lucky
- 28:27Speaker 1: Tony would be very happy that. I would be very pleased.
- 28:29Speaker 1: A truck stop Fungus rites in and it says going
- 28:33Speaker 1: to be a rough year for the Raiders. Hopefully they
- 28:36Speaker 1: go five and twelve. I think I've read that alrighty
- 28:38Speaker 1: Us box Weed writes in kind of sad someone's props
- 28:42Speaker 1: are based on other teams props rather than pumping up
- 28:45Speaker 1: your own team's props, and it's like a non secut
- 28:48Speaker 1: or what else do we have to see? Page Dan
- 28:50Speaker 1: we'll skip over that one. Nature Boy, answering the Call
- 28:53Speaker 1: to the Wild says, have you ever smacked around coop
- 28:56Speaker 1: as if you were a Dallas cowboy? In prac this. No, No,
- 29:03Speaker 1: I usually snap once every couple of years, maybe once
- 29:05Speaker 1: a year. I'll have a really bad day and I'll
- 29:07Speaker 1: just get really upset. But I try. I think I'm
- 29:09Speaker 1: not doing as much as I used to do, just
- 29:12Speaker 1: you know, kind of change my attitude most of the
- 29:14Speaker 1: time of Curmudgeon Wayne writes, since says you're on the
- 29:18Speaker 1: sauce tonight. All the slurring is hilarious. Sober up, says
- 29:22Speaker 1: Curmudgeon Wayne. Thank you for that. Yes, absolutely absolutely not
- 29:27Speaker 1: a burner, writes in. And by the way, if you
- 29:30Speaker 1: want to hear the clean version, Curmudgeon Wayne, we recommend
- 29:35Speaker 1: the Mallard plus. We recommend the Mallard plus. You brought
- 29:39Speaker 1: up the Jabbowaukees that have a Vegas show at the
- 29:44Speaker 1: MGM Grand where they hide their identities under masks, just
- 29:49Speaker 1: like our ferg dog. Your knowledge of current pop culture
- 29:53Speaker 1: can only be rivaled by your mental database of sports history.
- 29:57Speaker 1: Spots Weed, right, thank you for that. By the way,
- 29:59Speaker 1: I appreciate that, Rick kind of not a burner, spocks
- 30:01Speaker 1: Weed writes in says that was four vomit comments four
- 30:06Speaker 1: of them. I think that's a record, So a glorious
- 30:10Speaker 1: minus four magnitude that is really bright. Vomit comment made
- 30:15Speaker 1: its fabulous appearance over the neon skies of Las Vegas.
- 30:20Speaker 1: Well it was in Houston. Will T writes in says
- 30:24Speaker 1: pedestrian is the word for Fernando Mendoza's performance, He says,
- 30:28Speaker 1: in that exhibition game, and let me click refresh here.
- 30:33Speaker 1: I'm gonna open up my email because I'm sure I
- 30:36Speaker 1: got some messages from the Raider fans, because they they
- 30:39Speaker 1: sent me some pretty violent stuff when I did my
- 30:41Speaker 1: monologue on Mendoza and how embarrassing it was that he
- 30:45Speaker 1: is going to be a backup to Kirk Cousins, who
- 30:48Speaker 1: hasn't been able to play in at least three years
- 30:50Speaker 1: at a high level. And for some reason there were
- 30:53Speaker 1: a lot of people that found my email address and
- 30:56Speaker 1: were able to send me some pretty demeaning messages When
- 31:00Speaker 1: that happened, I guess maybe their Wi Fi's down? Could
- 31:03Speaker 1: that be it? The Wi Fi's not working right now,
- 31:05Speaker 1: and that's that's I guess that's the problem. That must
- 31:08Speaker 1: be the problem, right, It's got to be the problem
- 31:11Speaker 1: has to be the one hundred per one hundred percent.
- 31:15Speaker 1: Let's see what else do we have to see Page Dan,
- 31:18Speaker 1: I don't know if you read that, well, should we
- 31:20Speaker 1: do the hump dance? You under the humpty humpy dance?
- 31:23Speaker 1: All right, we'll do the humpty dance. So well, it's
- 31:26Speaker 1: more like the hump dance, not the Humpty Humpty dance,
- 31:28Speaker 1: but it's it's close enough. So the NFL always trying
- 31:31Speaker 1: to stay on top of all the latest trends and
- 31:35Speaker 1: all that's cool in the world because that's how they roll,
- 31:38Speaker 1: or the NFL. And sure enough, it would appear that
- 31:44Speaker 1: the NFL has decided, you know, we play games on Monday,
- 31:50Speaker 1: we play games on Thursday, we play games on Sunday
- 31:54Speaker 1: and occasionally on Saturday. Let's let's really go into Wednesdays.
- 31:58Speaker 1: Let's do the hump Let's do the hump Day. And
- 32:01Speaker 1: so the NFL was speculated in the Chatterbox chatterbox this week,
- 32:08Speaker 1: bouncing around the echo chamber, that the NFL is going
- 32:10Speaker 1: to increasingly add more and more games on Wednesday, and
- 32:15Speaker 1: they're like, well, there's no plans for regular Wednesday night games.
- 32:20Speaker 1: Rare and appropriate. Now this season there are not only one,
- 32:24Speaker 1: but two two Wednesday games. You've got the Seahawks and
- 32:30Speaker 1: the Patriots in the rematch of that little game they
- 32:33Speaker 1: played back in February, that is on opening night. The
- 32:36Speaker 1: NFL season begins on a Wednesday night, and the Packers
- 32:39Speaker 1: and the Rams on Thanksgiving Eve when all the turkeys
- 32:44Speaker 1: are being stuffed in the land and all the stuffing
- 32:47Speaker 1: and the meshed potatoes and the yams are being prepared.
- 32:51Speaker 1: On Thanksgiving Eve, the Packers Rams game will be a
- 32:55Speaker 1: streaming game on Netflix, which means a lot of wokesters
- 33:00Speaker 1: as will we tell you about football, and the NFL's
- 33:03Speaker 1: media zar said the league is continuing to examine Wednesday
- 33:10Speaker 1: games quote selectively. Now, let me pull out my Malard
- 33:16Speaker 1: Dakota ring I got in a box of cracker Jacks
- 33:19Speaker 1: back in the in the eighties. There it's a Mallard
- 33:22Speaker 1: Dakota ring from the cracker Jack box. And when they
- 33:26Speaker 1: use the word selectively, they're using that word strategically meaning
- 33:32Speaker 1: let's wait until we renegotiate the TV contracts and let's
- 33:35Speaker 1: see who we can get to pay Buco Bucks for
- 33:40Speaker 1: the Wednesday Night NFL package. That's right, Wednesday Night NFL package.
- 33:46Speaker 1: And the way they'll do it is they'll say, okay,
- 33:48Speaker 1: you play on a Thursday the week before, then you
- 33:51Speaker 1: play on a Wednesday the following week, or you play
- 33:53Speaker 1: you can't. I can't obviously play on Sunday and Wednesday.
- 33:57Speaker 1: That doesn't make too much sense there on a regular basis.
- 34:00Speaker 1: So you're gonna have to mess some stuff around there
- 34:03Speaker 1: and mess the schedule around and all that. So, yeah,
- 34:06Speaker 1: before too long, there will be a package. It's likely
- 34:08Speaker 1: will not be a full season package. How about a
- 34:11Speaker 1: nice eight game package of NFL. And you'd have to
- 34:15Speaker 1: mix teams coming off by weeks. You'd have to do
- 34:18Speaker 1: some of that mix that in there, and so that
- 34:22Speaker 1: that's gonna happen. And then the precedent was established. The
- 34:26Speaker 1: NFL schedule not one but two Christmas games on a Wednesday,
- 34:31Speaker 1: and they had said that Wednesday was not a desirable day.
- 34:36Speaker 1: Another reason you should never believe anything these people say.
- 34:39Speaker 1: They're a bunch of liars. They always are. My favorite though,
- 34:43Speaker 1: and this, I love gambling. I've done a TV show
- 34:46Speaker 1: but gambling. We've done gambling on the radio. I do
- 34:48Speaker 1: gambling commercials. But for about thirty five years, Roger Goodell
- 34:53Speaker 1: and the other commissioners in the NFL, all those sports
- 34:55Speaker 1: got up on the dais and they would rant and
- 34:58Speaker 1: rave about the Devil and carn which was gambling, and
- 35:01Speaker 1: it was the thing we could not do, and we
- 35:04Speaker 1: just can't do it. I cannot have gambling. And then
- 35:06Speaker 1: all of a sudden they saw how much money they
- 35:08Speaker 1: could make from gambling, and they did a one eighty
- 35:10Speaker 1: and they're like, oh, we love gambling. Oh it's so good,
- 35:13Speaker 1: it's so amazing. Anyway, let's go to the phones and
- 35:16Speaker 1: eenie meenie, miney mo. Let's say hello to in the
- 35:20Speaker 1: leadoff chair from the Bay Area. We say hello to
- 35:23Speaker 1: Lucky Tony, who has been cleared by the Mallard Bureau
- 35:28Speaker 1: of Investigations. Hello, Lucky Tony.
- 35:31Speaker 4: Hey Ben, how do I make him smile at the brothel?
- 35:36Speaker 1: I don't know. I do the old haircut and I
- 35:39Speaker 1: save two bits.
- 35:40Speaker 4: And if you ever see a fourteen year old in
- 35:42Speaker 4: a Peyton jersey and you think it's Tony where.
- 35:51Speaker 1: He has been cleared, he has been cleared. So I
- 35:55Speaker 1: just want to point that out. He's clear. Let's go
- 35:57Speaker 1: to Andy. He's in southern California. He's in coast and Mason,
- 36:02Speaker 1: what's going on? Andy? You're on Fox Sports Radio. It
- 36:05Speaker 1: is the Ben Mallor Show.
- 36:07Speaker 4: How's it going Ben, It's good to be with you.
- 36:11Speaker 1: If I was any better, I'd be a charger, but
- 36:14Speaker 1: not an LA charger. I guess because they got smoked
- 36:16Speaker 1: in an exhibition game. I don't know. Is that how
- 36:19Speaker 1: that works?
- 36:20Speaker 4: It was pretty pretty amazing.
- 36:22Speaker 1: Then.
- 36:22Speaker 4: The first thing I want to say is your number
- 36:25Speaker 4: is not eight six six ninety nine on Fox. I
- 36:29Speaker 4: went through a rigormarole with my credit card trying to
- 36:31Speaker 4: talk to some single ladies. So it's not eight six six,
- 36:35Speaker 4: it's eight seven seven.
- 36:37Speaker 1: My bad.
- 36:37Speaker 4: That's my bad?
- 36:39Speaker 1: Was that your bad or my bad? I mean given
- 36:41Speaker 1: out the same numbers, I give out the different number.
- 36:42Speaker 1: I mean every when the phones are full here, I
- 36:44Speaker 1: give out the wrong number. I don think I give
- 36:45Speaker 1: out the wrong number.
- 36:46Speaker 4: No, no, I think I think you did. I think
- 36:48Speaker 4: I heard it wrong.
- 36:50Speaker 1: So you probably I didn't give out the right No,
- 36:52Speaker 1: you got to listen. No, trust me. There's a lot
- 36:55Speaker 1: of things I f up on, and pretty much everything
- 36:57Speaker 1: I say is wrong. The number though, I've given out
- 36:59Speaker 1: the number pretty much my entire adult life. I've given
- 37:02Speaker 1: out that number. Damn. That sex hotline has been around
- 37:05Speaker 1: a long time. Well, it's big business. Sex foop. People
- 37:08Speaker 1: seem to like it. You know, they don't stop doing it.
- 37:10Speaker 4: So, Ben, we got a quarterback controversy or something. I mean,
- 37:14Speaker 4: the Niners got three top fifteen quarterbacks. What do you
- 37:18Speaker 4: do for Kyle Shanahan. I mean Brock went out there.
- 37:21Speaker 4: He did what Brock does. He throws weak passes, but accurate.
- 37:25Speaker 4: You know, he was there for one one series. The
- 37:28Speaker 4: Knack comes in. He's thrown dimes, he's running the offense,
- 37:32Speaker 4: he's athletic, he's good. And then Martinez comes in. He
- 37:35Speaker 4: had to pick six. You know that looked ugly. But

- 38:19Speaker 1: because once the players practice and they get hit by
