- 0:26Speaker 1: have a trade on Thursday. We react to it. What
- 0:30Speaker 1: stands out about the Mariners getting slugger Josh Naylor from

- 0:48Speaker 1: Oh my aching toe. Welcome in the beginning of another
- 0:54Speaker 1: hour of the Ben Mahlor Show. We are in the
- 0:57Speaker 1: air every right next door as we bite the night coast,
- 1:05Speaker 1: the coast Port of Order and beyond on the mast
- 1:08Speaker 1: and noisily powerful microphones of fs are amminating live from
- 1:15Speaker 1: under the moonlight, camouflaged by the darkness the Fox Sports
- 1:20Speaker 1: Radio studios, as approved by Alfred Vanderwolf and Heim Doom.
- 1:26Speaker 1: They like that. Now this portion of the show made possible,
- 1:29Speaker 1: as our friend Ferg Dog knows and Alf the alien
- 1:32Speaker 1: o pinter by ti Iraq. For over forty years, that's
- 1:34Speaker 1: a long time. Ty Iraq has been helping customers find

- 1:43Speaker 1: convenient installation options like mobile tire installation, tire iraq dot
- 1:48Speaker 1: Com The Way Tire Buying Show be So I leave
- 1:53Speaker 1: this hour, we'll get back to the Whose Sports. But
- 1:56Speaker 1: if you're on hold, a bunch of people have been
- 1:58Speaker 1: waiting to talk about Holk. We'll get back to that.
- 2:01Speaker 1: I have some more thoughts. I mean, I could do
- 2:03Speaker 1: the whole show talking about Hulk, but I think they'll
- 2:05Speaker 1: kick my ass out here if I do that. So
- 2:07Speaker 1: our lead is from the NFL. It's not really training camp.
- 2:12Speaker 1: It is not really training camp until we get what
- 2:15Speaker 1: kind of breakfast? That's right? Snap, crackle pop. We got
- 2:21Speaker 1: some of that. Now, good news. We have our first
- 2:25Speaker 1: quarterback injury of training camp. If you saw it, you
- 2:29Speaker 1: know what I'm talking about. Maybe not. Initially, there was
- 2:33Speaker 1: a lot of doom and gloom around New York Jets
- 2:35Speaker 1: quarterback Justin Fields. Fields of pain as he dislocated a
- 2:41Speaker 1: toe on his right foot. The initial reports doom and
- 2:44Speaker 1: gloom carted off extreme pain, people predicting the kind of
- 2:49Speaker 1: injury that Justin Fields was going to have. Worst of
- 2:51Speaker 1: the worst. Now they're calling Fields, I love this the
- 2:54Speaker 1: initial reports. While while it was bad, then they said
- 2:56Speaker 1: well day to day. The early word though, is going
- 2:59Speaker 1: to miss it at least a couple of weeks, most
- 3:01Speaker 1: likely of practice. Keep in mind from now in here
- 3:07Speaker 1: we are in late July. From now until February, well,
- 3:12Speaker 1: I guess till January, there will be NFL football every
- 3:16Speaker 1: single Thursday that we have passed the rubicon. We have
- 3:20Speaker 1: crossed over this past Thursday, yesterday, it's our Friday's the
- 3:25Speaker 1: twenty fifth day of July. But the last Friday without football,
- 3:29Speaker 1: or last Thursday without football NFL football. Now, keep in mind,
- 3:33Speaker 1: the Hall of Fame game is coming up. It's pretty unwatchable.
- 3:36Speaker 1: You know. It's a lot of tradition, a lot of
- 3:38Speaker 1: pomp and circumstances. It's a big deal if you live
- 3:40Speaker 1: in that part of Ohio. But for the rest of us,
- 3:43Speaker 1: it's you know, a bunch of backups, of backups of backups.
- 3:46Speaker 1: But The point is there'll be people in NFL costumes
- 3:49Speaker 1: hitting other people in NFL costumes, and that starts coming
- 3:53Speaker 1: up this Thursday. So it's a rapid fire here. Rapid fire,
- 3:57Speaker 1: which is pretty cool. But back to Justin Field. So
- 4:00Speaker 1: they said, well, initially not that bad, and then they said
- 4:02Speaker 1: day to day, this is a couple weeks of prie. Now,
- 4:04Speaker 1: depending on how he recovers, could be longer. The Jets
- 4:08Speaker 1: safety that you know with the backup quarterback for the
- 4:10Speaker 1: Jets is do you know I had to look it
- 4:13Speaker 1: up Tyrod Taylor. Yeah, he's still around Tyrod Taylor, who's
- 4:18Speaker 1: favorite medical staff the Chargers clearly, but he's the backup plan.
- 4:22Speaker 1: So Taylor is a Justin Fields busted toe away from
- 4:27Speaker 1: being QB one and getting the job. So let us
- 4:30Speaker 1: discuss the question what is your read on the Justin
- 4:35Speaker 1: Fields injured tutsie with the Jets. So I've got pizzeria, water,
- 4:41Speaker 1: and Airbnb, and we'll combine all of these things together
- 4:47Speaker 1: and we are going to make a salad. Now, I
- 4:50Speaker 1: don't eat salad, so you can have my salad number.
- 4:53Speaker 1: Wa to quote the great Scooby Doo Rot Roll Trouble
- 5:00Speaker 1: Brow trouble broow Right. We all know from our ability
- 5:04Speaker 1: of watching football, our knowledge of football paying attention football
- 5:07Speaker 1: justin fields relies on what The only games where he's
- 5:11Speaker 1: been good have been where he dominates with his legs.
- 5:16Speaker 1: The whole skill set is dependent on mobility. Justin fields.
- 5:21Speaker 1: The competitive advantage he has and I'm not one of
- 5:24Speaker 1: his advocates, but his advantage is run, run, run and
- 5:27Speaker 1: run run. It is not reading defenses. It's not sitting
- 5:30Speaker 1: back anticipating who's going to be open. It's not running
- 5:34Speaker 1: timing routes with the wide receivers, it's not any of that.
- 5:37Speaker 1: His big advantage as a dual threat quarterback is to
- 5:42Speaker 1: go and now without the toe, no toe, no got
- 5:46Speaker 1: So this isn't just some run of the mill injury. Now,
- 5:51Speaker 1: if you're just a pocket passer, you're like, well, we
- 5:53Speaker 1: can figure it out. But you take away that mobility,
- 5:56Speaker 1: and what are you left with. If you just had
- 6:00Speaker 1: to have justin fields through the ball, he would not
- 6:02Speaker 1: be in the NFL. He would be not he was
- 6:04Speaker 1: doing TikTok videos or something. He's a mid passer, a
- 6:07Speaker 1: guy who hasn't proven he can win from the pocket.
- 6:11Speaker 1: He's not going out there and dicing up anyone with accuracy,
- 6:15Speaker 1: with precision. If he's not moving around, he's nothing. And
- 6:22Speaker 1: so this toe thing is everything could be a real
- 6:25Speaker 1: problem Justin Fields if you look at his body of work.
- 6:28Speaker 1: Now he has been a pizzeria during his career, from
- 6:32Speaker 1: the Bears to the Steelers, and now he's on the Jets,
- 6:36Speaker 1: and the pizzeria is named Shaky's, except he didn't have
- 6:39Speaker 1: the mojo potatoes. Right, There have been some mojo moments.
- 6:43Speaker 1: There have been some mojo moments with running the ball,
- 6:45Speaker 1: and some viral highlights on social media. The consistency has
- 6:48Speaker 1: not been there. That's why he keeps getting passed around
- 6:51Speaker 1: like the collection plate at church on Sunday. So page two,
- 6:55Speaker 1: here is there a silver lining for Justin Field suffering
- 7:00Speaker 1: from this toe injury with the Jets? So I am
- 7:03Speaker 1: nodding my head, Yes, there is actually a silver lining
- 7:06Speaker 1: to this. Okay, there is a silver lining. I'll tell
- 7:09Speaker 1: you all right, this reeks if you use your nose,
- 7:14Speaker 1: you smell that. It reeks of a ready made excuse.
- 7:19Speaker 1: You know it's true. You know I don't push back,
- 7:22Speaker 1: it's true. All right. Just add water, Just pour a
- 7:25Speaker 1: little water there watch it grow. Yeah, that's what this is.
- 7:30Speaker 1: I'm telling you, that is what this is. He's already
- 7:33Speaker 1: behind the eight ball and now Justin Field's missing valuable reps. Right,
- 7:38Speaker 1: these early practices before the games get going, very important.
- 7:42Speaker 1: And the excuse is, well, he was trying to learn
- 7:44Speaker 1: a new system and he's got new coaches and he's
- 7:47Speaker 1: got new team baits and everything can do. And he
- 7:50Speaker 1: get it. You practice, yeah, that whole thing. So it's
- 7:54Speaker 1: not fair. It's gonna take him two months to figure
- 7:56Speaker 1: things out. And of course the problem is when the
- 7:59Speaker 1: game's actually and we're almost in August, it's only a
- 8:02Speaker 1: few days away, and then the season begins in September,
- 8:05Speaker 1: he goes out there and drops a deuce right on
- 8:09Speaker 1: the midfield logo there and stinks up the joint. And
- 8:13Speaker 1: don't worry, don't worry, it's okay. He'll just go in
- 8:17Speaker 1: his back pocket. He's got in his back pocket the oh, well,
- 8:21Speaker 1: I missed camp because of the toe thing. Just give
- 8:25Speaker 1: me time, give me I'll be fine. I'll be fine.
- 8:31Speaker 1: That's it. Gotta have it. So it's again, it's a positive,
- 8:34Speaker 1: supposedly a minor thing, and he's got that in his
- 8:37Speaker 1: back pocket, all right, So we're going to leave the
- 8:40Speaker 1: world of the NFL. We're gonna go to baseball. We
- 8:42Speaker 1: had a trade, a Thursday special. I love trades. Do
- 8:47Speaker 1: you like trades? All right? So we had a it's
- 8:51Speaker 1: been called a meaningful trade. Being called a meaningful trade.
- 8:56Speaker 1: The deadline is this Thursday, so we are less than
- 8:59Speaker 1: a week away from That's it. The store is closed.
- 9:04Speaker 1: You can't make any more trades. The Seattle Mariners. But
- 9:11Speaker 1: crying Craig is gonna start crying when he finds out
- 9:13Speaker 1: about this, and Nostre Denis and JJ Andranton and Robbie
- 9:17Speaker 1: the Mariner fan. We got some big stars in the
- 9:21Speaker 1: Seattle area that are regulars on the show or have
- 9:23Speaker 1: been regulars over the years. So the Seattle Mariners. Is
- 9:27Speaker 1: it true? The Seattle Manners have required first baseman Josh
- 9:31Speaker 1: Naylor first baseman Josh Naylor from the Diamondbacks for a
- 9:38Speaker 1: couple of pitching prospects. I'm nodding my head, Yes, it
- 9:41Speaker 1: is true. So Seattle's kind of chasing a playoff spot
- 9:47Speaker 1: as they're trying to bolster They're always suck bag offense there,
- 9:52Speaker 1: particularly at first base. So what stands out here's the
- 9:55Speaker 1: question for all the Baseball hardos, what stands out We'll
- 10:00Speaker 1: get to the mall of report card, but what stands
- 10:02Speaker 1: out about the Mariners getting slugger Josh Naylor from the Diamondbacks.
- 10:07Speaker 1: So if you look at Seattle and there's a lot
- 10:09Speaker 1: of teams a business. I was talking to somebody the
- 10:10Speaker 1: other day who works in that business and we were
- 10:13Speaker 1: going back and forth. They were like, Ben, there's not
- 10:16Speaker 1: gonna be a lot of big name trades because there's
- 10:19Speaker 1: too many teams that are mathematically in the race. There's
- 10:22Speaker 1: too many faux contenders, teams that aren't good but have
- 10:26Speaker 1: the illusion of contention because Baseball kept adding wildcard teams.
- 10:31Speaker 1: So they have a lot of teams that really don't
- 10:33Speaker 1: deserve to be in the conversation, but they will. They're
- 10:36Speaker 1: not gonna make any any trades in terms of selling
- 10:40Speaker 1: because they're convinced, hey, we just have to get in.
- 10:42Speaker 1: And teams have done that. The Atlanta Braves famously the
- 10:45Speaker 1: year they won the World Series. For years back, they
- 10:47Speaker 1: sucked at the trade deadline. They made some trades they
- 10:50Speaker 1: won the World Series. The Washington Nationals when they won
- 10:53Speaker 1: years ago, they weren't that good they made some moves
- 10:57Speaker 1: and win the World Series. Right, Arizona Diamondbacks didn't win it,
- 11:00Speaker 1: but they made some moves. They got to the World Series.
- 11:02Speaker 1: I said. One of those things, it's the blessing in
- 11:05Speaker 1: the curse of baseball, just by getting in. The perception
- 11:09Speaker 1: is you can play well for a month and you
- 11:11Speaker 1: can end up getting there. But in terms of what
- 11:13Speaker 1: stands out about the Mariners getting Josh Naylor from Arizona,
- 11:16Speaker 1: it is a team that has a bullet hole and
- 11:19Speaker 1: they have put a band aid on the bullet hole.
- 11:22Speaker 1: And remember last year they got Randy Rose Arena, who
- 11:25Speaker 1: I liked, and he's okay, and he's not as good
- 11:28Speaker 1: as I thought he would be in Seattle. They got
- 11:30Speaker 1: him from Tampa Bay and he was supposed to fix
- 11:32Speaker 1: the offense that didn't work. The offense continues to be
- 11:35Speaker 1: a dead zone. Is there's some kind of cosmic field
- 11:38Speaker 1: over the ballpark there in Seattle that is causing them
- 11:42Speaker 1: to not be able to hit in their ballpark in
- 11:45Speaker 1: this trait. The other thing about it, it's an Airbnb situations,
- 11:48Speaker 1: an Airbnb rental, but it's not a good one, right.
- 11:51Speaker 1: So it's one of those places that you look up online.
- 11:54Speaker 1: It's kind of it's cheap, not a great part of town,
- 11:58Speaker 1: sketchy part of town, and the photos look okay, but
- 12:03Speaker 1: you know, you check in and all that stuff, and
- 12:05Speaker 1: then you get in there and it's one of those
- 12:07Speaker 1: places where you smell the fridge and somebody left some
- 12:11Speaker 1: hard boiled eggs in there that turned rotten, so you
- 12:13Speaker 1: smell that, and they left some broccoli, some cauliflower and
- 12:16Speaker 1: some Brussels sprouts that have just been smelling up the
- 12:19Speaker 1: entire the entire place, and there's no hot water, that
- 12:23Speaker 1: doesn't work, and there's probably bed bugs. That's your Airbnb.
- 12:26Speaker 1: So this is the standard. I've been doing this for
- 12:30Speaker 1: a few years. It's the standard Seattle style trade because
- 12:34Speaker 1: they've admitted, in a momode of weakness, they're not actually
- 12:37Speaker 1: trying to win in any given year. They just want
- 12:40Speaker 1: to win fifty four percent of their games and get
- 12:43Speaker 1: to the playoffs and they figure eventually, one of these
- 12:46Speaker 1: years they're going to win. It's very compelling, very exciting.
- 12:51Speaker 1: You want to hear that as a fan. Team's not
- 12:53Speaker 1: really trying to win, they're just trying to get in.
- 12:55Speaker 1: And there's a lot of teams that have been hijacked
- 12:59Speaker 1: by the analytics people. And that's the philosophy. Seattle admitted it.
- 13:02Speaker 1: The gym admitted it. He admitted it. So like they're not,
- 13:06Speaker 1: this is not an all in trade. They're not. This
- 13:09Speaker 1: is a Seattle style trade. Like you dip your toe in.
- 13:13Speaker 1: You don't do the belly whopper. You just gotta put
- 13:15Speaker 1: your toe in the water a little bit, just a
- 13:17Speaker 1: little bit. And that's it. Right now for the low
- 13:20Speaker 1: information fan, the unknoledgeable fan, they're like, oh, that's a
- 13:22Speaker 1: that's a good trade. That is a sexy trade. Now,
- 13:26Speaker 1: as far as the Malor report card, a very important tool,
- 13:31Speaker 1: the Malor report card to grade the trade. So the
- 13:34Speaker 1: Mariners get a B minus, Arizona gets a C. Arizona
- 13:41Speaker 1: gets a C, and they're just giving away a player
- 13:45Speaker 1: that wasn't in their plans the Diamondbacks and the reason
- 13:48Speaker 1: the Mariner's going to be minus. When you dig a
- 13:50Speaker 1: little deeper, the Mariners didn't give up much. They gave
- 13:54Speaker 1: up a couple of mid tier pitching prospects, and maybe
- 13:58Speaker 1: one of those guys turns out to be a middle
- 14:00Speaker 1: of the bullpen or back of the rotation pitcher. But
- 14:03Speaker 1: that's about it and Josh Naylor the reason I can't
- 14:05Speaker 1: go higher than like a B minus and I want
- 14:07Speaker 1: to go see plus. I want to be minus. Josh Naylor.
- 14:10Speaker 1: If you look at last season, he hit thirty one
- 14:14Speaker 1: home runs last year. This season he's got eleven and
- 14:21Speaker 1: it was still time. Okay, is he going to Barry
- 14:24Speaker 1: Bonds show hail tany like? Run here for Seattle. They're
- 14:28Speaker 1: not playing at the Kingdome anymore. Good luck on that,
- 14:31Speaker 1: So he's he's okay. You look at some of the
- 14:35Speaker 1: NERD numbers. I try to avoid those. But if you
- 14:37Speaker 1: look at the NERD numbers, the hard contact rate is
- 14:40Speaker 1: not that great. And the other thing, and this is
- 14:44Speaker 1: a problem. You always worry about guys that come from
- 14:48Speaker 1: the Rockies or the Red Sox, these bandbox ballparks because
- 14:52Speaker 1: the numbers they put up are phony. They're not sustainable
- 14:56Speaker 1: in a big ballpark, and that is an issue. And
- 15:00Speaker 1: Josh Naylor's numbers are not that great. But if you
- 15:02Speaker 1: look at what he's done at Chase Field, a hitter
- 15:04Speaker 1: friendly ballpark, he's been pretty good on the road. When
- 15:09Speaker 1: he leaves that hitter friendly ballpark in that Arizona Desert air,
- 15:14Speaker 1: his numbers are pretty mediocre, like batting averageses ops are
- 15:17Speaker 1: not good, not good, And so you're like, well, he's
- 15:21Speaker 1: going to this great canyon in Seattle, a pitcher friendly ballpark.
- 15:26Speaker 1: So is he going to be yet another yet another
- 15:29Speaker 1: Mariner player that blows like their street blows. So we'll see.
- 15:34Speaker 1: But that's a trade. We had a trade. Josh Naylor
- 15:37Speaker 1: goes from Arizona to Seattle. You can mark that on
- 15:41Speaker 1: your scorecard. And there will be more trades, but not
- 15:45Speaker 1: many big name trades or will there be? Will there
- 15:49Speaker 1: be a big name trade developing? We'll get back to
- 15:53Speaker 1: Haul Cogan as well. We talked about that the Hour
- 15:54Speaker 1: of Hulk Halcomania Last hour, Hawk dying this week at
- 15:58Speaker 1: age seventy one. So straight ahead, A Pirates Life for

- 18:44Speaker 1: That's Bill's Monster, no longer working the dreaded day shift
- 18:48Speaker 1: and now back on the overnight. So welcome back, Bill's Monster.
- 18:53Speaker 1: We missed you and you're back just in time for
- 18:55Speaker 1: football season, so that's good. There you go, Bobby and
- 18:59Speaker 1: Flora says eight first hour wrestling is still huge. There
- 19:03Speaker 1: you go. They said, Sirius just started a wrestling channel.
- 19:08Speaker 1: Good for them. The depressed Mariner fan says a plus
- 19:12Speaker 1: on the matter of the monologue, Jerry Depoto has abandoned
- 19:15Speaker 1: free agency for the trade deadline because no one wants
- 19:18Speaker 1: to come here as a free agent. I don't know
- 19:21Speaker 1: if that's the good anyway. That said, I believe Josh
- 19:23Speaker 1: Naylor is the missing piece for the elusive Mariner championship,
- 19:28Speaker 1: says the depressed Mariner fan. And gonna I'm gonna write
- 19:31Speaker 1: down here. Let's see, it's July twenty fifth to day,
- 19:35Speaker 1: so by September one I will get a message from
- 19:39Speaker 1: the depressed Mariner fan. Why can't we have nice things?
- 19:42Speaker 1: I don't understand why Josh Naylor is batting two hundred
- 19:45Speaker 1: with three home runs. I don't get it as a
- 19:47Speaker 1: Mariner JJ from the Great Pacific Northwest. There a seahawk
- 19:52Speaker 1: Koog's Mariners, Kraken fan and a very salty, very salty person.
- 19:57Speaker 1: He admits that. He says, Ben, it's the marine Layer
- 20:02Speaker 1: in April and May, plus a bad batter's eye in
- 20:05Speaker 1: center field. That's why the Mariner batters look like they've
- 20:08Speaker 1: never hit before. Our retractable roof is stupid and leaves
- 20:11Speaker 1: open air to be a factor. It only covers the
- 20:14Speaker 1: field when it says JJ, Yeah, I've been to that ballpark.
- 20:17Speaker 1: It's a cool ballpark with all the train whistles and
- 20:21Speaker 1: whatever they're in the outfield bouncing off the roof and
- 20:24Speaker 1: echoing throughout the stadium and all that. And the marine
- 20:27Speaker 1: layer thing. Eh, there's a marine layer at Dodger Stadium.
- 20:31Speaker 1: They don't seem to have a problem hit home runs.
- 20:33Speaker 1: If you have good players, they hit home runs. It's
- 20:34Speaker 1: usually how that goes. Joheo Tani has played with the
- 20:38Speaker 1: Angels and Dodgers with the Marine Layer in southern California
- 20:42Speaker 1: and has not had many problems ferg dog rights since says,
- 20:45Speaker 1: I am so relieved that justin fields is okay. I
- 20:50Speaker 1: almost threw my computer out the window when I thought
- 20:53Speaker 1: he broke his leg. If Fields was out for the
- 20:56Speaker 1: whole year, my best ball fantasy team would have been
- 21:00Speaker 1: royally screwed. Signed for dog. There you go, justin in.
- 21:05Speaker 1: Since Cinnati says there's a better chance that Hulk Hogan
- 21:10Speaker 1: wins at WrestleMania this year than the Mariners win the
- 21:14Speaker 1: American League, that's it shot fired there by the always
- 21:19Speaker 1: positive Justin in Cincinnati. Let's go back to the phones
- 21:23Speaker 1: and let's say hello to Andre who's in the Commonwealth
- 21:26Speaker 1: and his dog willis Hello, Andre, Ben, how are.
- 21:31Speaker 5: You doing good? Good to be with you. It's a
- 21:34Speaker 5: bittersweet today as you started off talking about Hulk Cogan,
- 21:38Speaker 5: Haulcamania awesome eighties legend and icon. So it's, you know,
- 21:44Speaker 5: kind of bittersweet, is what I have to go with,
- 21:48Speaker 5: because it's not just talking about Mark talking about haulk Cogan,
- 21:52Speaker 5: Malcolm Jamaal, Warner, Cosby Show, you know, Ozzy Osbourne, just
- 21:57Speaker 5: a lot of folks you kind of grew up with,
- 22:00Speaker 5: and you have to realize, even though in your mind
- 22:04Speaker 5: you know it's Et and Goonies Forever and Big Hair
- 22:08Speaker 5: and Bruce Springsteen and all that stuff, it is many
- 22:11Speaker 5: blue moons in the rear view maris So, yeah, but
- 22:15Speaker 5: haulk Covid as as he moved on in his life,
- 22:17Speaker 5: there were certainly things that transpired that I can't co
- 22:21Speaker 5: sign and I disagree vehemently with. Actually, uh so, that's
- 22:25Speaker 5: kind of been the narrative of talking to folks, you know,
- 22:28Speaker 5: classmates and how do you kind of feeling about it?
- 22:30Speaker 5: But have to say, for me, I'm more on the
- 22:33Speaker 5: nostalgia piece. I'm more embedded in the awesome eighties and
- 22:37Speaker 5: what you know, It's just it's hard to describe some
- 22:39Speaker 5: of your other callers later in the eighties. You know,
- 22:42Speaker 5: I'm an eighty two person. So just really throughout early childhood,
- 22:47Speaker 5: elementary school, middle school, he was just there and you know,
- 22:51Speaker 5: you just had to love him.
- 22:52Speaker 1: So it's uh yeah, listen, I told you Andre, I
- 22:57Speaker 1: pretty I didn't completely stopped watching, but I didn't watch
- 23:01Speaker 1: wrestling every week like I did when I was a kid,
- 23:04Speaker 1: and that stopped sometime in the nineties. I stopped watching
- 23:07Speaker 1: so like, and that's kind of when I shut off
- 23:09Speaker 1: my brain for hall cog And obviously we talked about
- 23:11Speaker 1: the stories with all the scandals that he was involved
- 23:15Speaker 1: in and all that stuff with Bubba La Love Sponge
- 23:17Speaker 1: and the whole thing and all that gocker the gocker
- 23:21Speaker 1: stuff that's all out there. But yeah, you know it's
- 23:24Speaker 1: that thing, Andrea, right when somebody isn't the tradition when
- 23:26Speaker 1: somebody dies, you're not supposed to speak ill of the dead?
- 23:29Speaker 1: Isn't that the people that are you're not supposed to.
- 23:30Speaker 1: That's like you can't do that. That's like a.
- 23:32Speaker 5: Normal for me. Then I'm remembering the good and again
- 23:38Speaker 5: in the awesome eighties where other calls have mentioned it,
- 23:42Speaker 5: you know, coming out to the theme music talking about
- 23:45Speaker 5: Ia the Tiger. Please, I'm a real American. Iya the
- 23:48Speaker 5: Tiger was ultimate warrior first.
- 23:49Speaker 1: Of all, and he might have no but but Andrew,
- 23:52Speaker 1: I'm just pointing out that that was the original before
- 23:54Speaker 1: Halk settled on the tune. The first song that he played,
- 23:58Speaker 1: he paid five hundred dollars five hundred dollars for the
- 24:04Speaker 1: for the right to play I Have Attiger, and then
- 24:05Speaker 1: he eventually obviously we know what he ended up with
- 24:07Speaker 1: the American tune and all that.
- 24:10Speaker 5: So yeah, and I appreciate the economic insight that you
- 24:13Speaker 5: provide in terms of what five hundred dollars meant in
- 24:15Speaker 5: the awesome eighties when with one single income you could
- 24:19Speaker 5: do quite a bit. Never mind where we are today
- 24:21Speaker 5: just in terms of cost of living and then artificial intelligence,
- 24:25Speaker 5: we're not going to get too much in the break
- 24:26Speaker 5: new world, Ben, Let's return to the awesome eighties, a
- 24:29Speaker 5: simpler time in many and many respects. Haulkster, Haulkamania. And
- 24:34Speaker 5: again I reference it that you play center on the
- 24:36Speaker 5: Fox Sports basketball team because tower and your and your
- 24:40Speaker 5: ability around the rim. But it was for somebody like
- 24:44Speaker 5: myself who was destined for the NBA but never got
- 24:46Speaker 5: quite above six foot. That was a pejorative. They used
- 24:48Speaker 5: to call me Andre the Giant.
- 24:49Speaker 1: No, Andre, Andre, you you know you got. If you
- 24:53Speaker 1: can dribble, you get. If you have the killer crossover
- 24:56Speaker 1: or whatever, you can make it right in basketball, you can.
- 24:58Speaker 1: There are always those like guys that are not that
- 25:00Speaker 1: tall that are pretty good. Not so much now, but back,
- 25:04Speaker 1: you know, fifteen twenty years ago, there were guys that
- 25:06Speaker 1: were pretty small in stature that were pretty good.
- 25:10Speaker 5: Munsey Bogues, Okay, the pride.
- 25:12Speaker 1: Of huge spud Web Earl Boykins was good for a
- 25:18Speaker 1: couple of years. He had some good the problem with
- 25:20Speaker 1: those guys. You can't play defense, that's the problem, because
- 25:23Speaker 1: how are you gonna stop anybody? They're so small. But
- 25:25Speaker 1: now on offense they're fine.
- 25:27Speaker 5: So in the last point, shout out the Muggy Bogue
- 25:31Speaker 5: pride of Dunbar Dunbar in the DMV area played basketball
- 25:34Speaker 5: and reg Regu Lewis, who is really near and dear
- 25:37Speaker 5: to our heart here in Massachusetts. Alright, p Hulk Cogan,
- 25:40Speaker 5: we love the ultimatis forever. Thanks take the time.
- 25:42Speaker 1: Then, all right, there you go, there's Andre in the common. Well,
- 25:44Speaker 1: let's say hello to what Oh yeah, what are you
- 25:50Speaker 1: gonna do? Let's go to Teddy in Minnesota. What's going on? Teddy? Welcome?
- 25:55Speaker 6: Oh my gosh, am I talking to you? Benny?
- 25:58Speaker 1: Let me check? Hold on, I think, I think? I
- 26:03Speaker 1: think so? Did you want to talk to somebody else?
- 26:07Speaker 6: No?
- 26:08Speaker 7: Hell no, I'll tell you what My favorite My favorite
- 26:12Speaker 7: memory was when he first introduced himself and he told me,
- 26:17Speaker 7: Gene Okerland, my brother, you don't know when you know
- 26:22Speaker 7: the Hulk means you.
- 26:24Speaker 6: But and it was then he did. He wasn't tearing
- 26:28Speaker 6: his shirt off as anything. He just said, take your
- 26:31Speaker 6: hulk of vitam Engine believe in me as I believe
- 26:35Speaker 6: in you, And that was the coolest thing ever. I mean,
- 26:38Speaker 6: if you want to talk about great wrestlers, you can
- 26:41Speaker 6: talk about the Hulkamaniac. You can talk about Jerry Blackwell,
- 26:45Speaker 6: the jumping Jimmy Brounzell and Greg Kanya, the high flyers.
- 26:51Speaker 6: For Current a Loud, it's so tough to try and
- 26:55Speaker 6: replicate these original people that brought it to entertainment. I
- 27:01Speaker 6: know it's probably not real, but I'll tell you what
- 27:06Speaker 6: they actually make people watch the program, and that's what
- 27:10Speaker 6: to me, I think makes the program the program what
- 27:15Speaker 6: it is today.
- 27:17Speaker 1: You know it was yeah, yeah, for sure, it's the
- 27:20Speaker 1: entertainment Teddy, Right, it's the it's combining all that stuff.
- 27:24Speaker 1: It's the wrestling. People. You go for the entertainment. You
- 27:28Speaker 1: stay for the wrestling, right or you know, I don't
- 27:30Speaker 1: think you go there for the wrestling. You go there
- 27:32Speaker 1: for the entertainment. You watch the wrestling.
- 27:35Speaker 6: Yeah, and do you need Cyndi Lauper or do you
- 27:38Speaker 6: have the one guy that was the guy with the
- 27:41Speaker 6: rubber bands and his cheeks or whatever like that was
- 27:45Speaker 6: a manager. It's like for Crying Out Loud I mean,
- 27:49Speaker 6: it turns out you've got so many different aspects to
- 27:54Speaker 6: the business that makes it what it is today. That's
- 27:58Speaker 6: why you have now WWE.
- 28:02Speaker 8: No, well you have the WWE because the WWF got
- 28:07Speaker 8: sued by the World Wildlife Foundation and they lost and
- 28:11Speaker 8: so they had to change their name.
- 28:12Speaker 1: That's what happened. Thank you, though, Teddy, look at that.
- 28:15Speaker 1: You could hear the passion, the raw emotion. Is that
- 28:18Speaker 1: what that sound was? And the mini pack of beer, well,
- 28:22Speaker 1: I mean there's that too, but he listen, do you
- 28:26Speaker 1: want me to go through the different kind of drunks
- 28:28Speaker 1: and and all that. I mean, I could have done
- 28:30Speaker 1: that bit with him, but guy was very emotional, right,
- 28:32Speaker 1: he was a I guess he was the Mary Poppins drunk,
- 28:36Speaker 1: you know that, the sweeter, happier drunk.
- 28:38Speaker 9: He was very sweet.
- 28:39Speaker 1: Yeah, there's four I learned this years ago when I
- 28:41Speaker 1: started doing overnight. So there's four kinds of drunks. There's
- 28:44Speaker 1: the heming way that doesn't really change, there the same
- 28:47Speaker 1: whether they're drunk or not. There's the Mary Poppins that
- 28:50Speaker 1: gets a lot nicer and sweeter, and the life of
- 28:53Speaker 1: the party, and the social butterfly that's the Merry Poppins drunk,
- 28:56Speaker 1: there's the nutty professor who is usually an intro of
- 29:00Speaker 1: it becomes more social, becomes more social when they drink.
- 29:03Speaker 1: And then the one you don't want to be around
- 29:05Speaker 1: is mister Hyde because mister Hyde becomes a very hostile.
- 29:11Speaker 1: He gets in fights, bar fights, get a little booze there,
- 29:15Speaker 1: you know, going to kick everyone's ass. Yeah, you want
- 29:18Speaker 1: to stay away from that. Definitely want to stay away

- 33:00Speaker 1: Next hour, Mark and Queen's via Arlington, Texas, right, since,
- 33:04Speaker 1: says big Men. I was at Madison Square Garden, a
- 33:07Speaker 1: mecca in midtown Manhattan, right over Penn Station, when Hulk
- 33:11Speaker 1: took the belt from the Iron Chek. An incredible memory,
- 33:15Speaker 1: and the iron cheek is not forgiven hault Cogan all
- 33:18Speaker 1: these years later. Yeah, oh yeah. Everybody now coshing down.
- 33:29Speaker 3: Inside is singing, yeah, do it.
- 33:36Speaker 1: I'm doing the whole ear thing. I got the whole
- 33:38Speaker 1: you know. I can't hear you. Yeah, I'm tearing my
- 33:43Speaker 1: shirt off right now, ripping it off. It's like I'm
- 33:47Speaker 1: a Chippendale's dancer right here. Look at me. Yeah, put
- 33:54Speaker 1: my finger right in my ear saying, hey, I can't
- 33:56Speaker 1: hear you. I can't hear you out.
- 34:00Speaker 6: Can you?
- 34:02Speaker 1: Now?
- 34:02Speaker 9: You already long past watching wrestling when Hulk made his
- 34:05Speaker 9: heel turn right.
- 34:06Speaker 1: Yeah, I did not. I did not watch hard. That
- 34:08Speaker 1: sounds like heel. Yes, two big heels. Let's say hello
- 34:15Speaker 1: to Danny DeVito, America's favorite trash man. Hello Danny DeVito, welcome.
- 34:19Speaker 1: Oh Danny is gone. Oh I thought I heard him.
- 34:22Speaker 1: That's weird. I must be hearing voices. I must be
- 34:25Speaker 1: hearing weird random voices that are popping into my head
- 34:28Speaker 1: all right, it is the Ben mallersho let's go jumping
- 34:30Speaker 1: off point anyway to pay off the tas we had earlier,
- 34:34Speaker 1: a pirate's life for me, we mentioned the Pirates they
- 34:37Speaker 1: suck even though he just swept the Tigers, and it
- 34:39Speaker 1: is expected the Pirates will do what they always do
- 34:41Speaker 1: and have a fire sale, a bonfire mid season. And
- 34:44Speaker 1: O'Neil Cruz his names out there. We talked about that.
- 34:48Speaker 1: Now the Yankees have been connected to O'Neil Cruz. They
- 34:52Speaker 1: also are interested in Geno Suarez of the Diamondbacks. Trade
- 34:56Speaker 1: dead life on well the the interweb. That's coming up
- 35:00Speaker 1: on Thursday, the trade deadline and the Dallas Cowboys get
- 35:04Speaker 1: goofed on. The Dallas Cowboys social media team shared a
- 35:10Speaker 1: Dak Prescott themed Fantastic four photograph and that was a
- 35:17Speaker 1: drawing and people were pointing out that in the playoffs playoffs,
- 35:23Speaker 1: that is when Dak turns invisible. Now, I've learned over
- 35:26Speaker 1: the years that teams don't really care whether you goof
- 35:29Speaker 1: on them or not. They just want the engagement. They
- 35:32Speaker 1: make money on the engagement. So it looks ridiculous considering
- 35:36Speaker 1: what a zero Dak Prescott is in every big game. However, however,
- 35:40Speaker 1: it did get a lot of engagement. There was a
- 35:41Speaker 1: dog pile, dog pile right on top all right time.
- 35:46Speaker 1: Now for the inst to trivia, as we pile on
- 35:49Speaker 1: the Seattle Mariners. Mike Trout, that's a baseball player for
- 35:52Speaker 1: the Angels. He's got four hundred and thirty seven career
- 35:55Speaker 1: total bases versus the Mariners and one hundred and forty
- 35:58Speaker 1: six run scored versus Seattle, which both set new all
- 36:04Speaker 1: time records. The previous marks were four hundred and thirty
- 36:08Speaker 1: five four to thirty five career total basis by blank
- 36:13Speaker 1: and one hundred and forty five runs by the late
- 36:15Speaker 1: Ricky Henderson. Fill in the blank. That's the insta trivia
- 36:18Speaker 1: the answer, and we'll get to Mallard of the third
- 36:20Speaker 1: degree and we will do it next.

- 40:02Speaker 9: Mayfield said on a recent podcast appearance that at every
- 40:04Speaker 9: stop he went to he was told to tone it
- 40:06Speaker 9: down a little bit, whereas the Bucks have just told
- 40:09Speaker 9: him from day one to be himself.
- 40:11Speaker 7: Ben.
- 40:11Speaker 9: Do you think things would have gone better in Cleveland
- 40:13Speaker 9: if they had done the same.
- 40:15Speaker 1: No, they would have been better if Baker Mayfield didn't
- 40:17Speaker 1: suck half the time. It's fine if you're the energizer, Bunny,
- 40:21Speaker 1: you're out there, you're radical and fire Brenny's night that radical,
- 40:25Speaker 1: But you got to perform. And the fact that Odell
- 40:29Speaker 1: Beckham deputized his father to get away from Baker Mayfield
- 40:32Speaker 1: was a bad sign. Good for Baker. He's turned out
- 40:34Speaker 1: to be a good quarterback, at least a better than
- 40:37Speaker 1: bad quarterback in Tampa. But let's not pretend like he
- 40:40Speaker 1: didn't have his issues in Cleveland, and it wasn't because
- 40:43Speaker 1: the Browns wouldn't let him be Baker next.
- 40:46Speaker 9: Marvin Harrison Junior told reporters on Wednesday that he feels
- 40:49Speaker 9: more powerful and is ready to showcase it this season.
- 40:52Speaker 9: Ben Harrison was the first receiver off the board and
- 40:54Speaker 9: had a productive rookie season, but he's still lagged behind
- 40:57Speaker 9: leak neighbors Brian Thomas, Lad McConkie, and brought. Do you
- 41:00Speaker 9: think we'll be able to outperform any of those guys
- 41:02Speaker 9: this year?
- 41:03Speaker 1: No? I mean I did not see it like he's bigger,
- 41:06Speaker 1: which is fine, whatever, but his ability to get open,
- 41:08Speaker 1: he could not get separation. I didn't I didn't watch
- 41:12Speaker 1: him every game. The games, I watched the Cards most
- 41:14Speaker 1: of the time. He could not get separation and I
- 41:17Speaker 1: don't see that changing. Next.
- 41:20Speaker 9: With the MLB trade deadline right around the corner, what
- 41:23Speaker 9: team do you think will be the most active buyer?
- 41:26Speaker 1: Well, it's got to be the usual suspects, the Dodgers,
- 41:28Speaker 1: the Yankees, they're falling apart. The Detroit Tigers are having
- 41:32Speaker 1: their issues right now. Those are the teams that have
- 41:35Speaker 1: to be active. You know, it's a it's not gonna
- 41:37Speaker 1: be a buyer's market. It's gonna be a seller's market.
- 41:40Speaker 1: But they've got to do things. How do we do
- 41:43Speaker 1: you pass? That's a when market down, market down, that's
- 41:47Speaker 1: a win.
