Speaker 1: key matchups in the NFL this weekend. But here in
0:43
Speaker 1: hour number four, what are the chances the Eagles Tush
0:46
Speaker 1: Push is banned after the season, as there are reports
0:51
Speaker 1: saying it is now doomed after the events of the
0:54
Speaker 1: previous weekend. Also, how do you read these comments from
0:57
Speaker 1: Cowboys coach Brian Schottenneimer not being worried is not worried
1:00
Speaker 1: about Tom Brady working some kind of dragnet operation for
1:04
Speaker 1: the Raiders when they talk to the Cowboys and his
1:06
Speaker 1: Falcons running back John Robinson definitely the best player in football.
1:11
Speaker 1: That's what his coach said. Will analyze that quote and more.
1:16
Speaker 1: Right now, have a wonderful Thursday. Don't forget Benny versus
1:19
Speaker 1: the Penny on the YouTube, but here it is our
1:22
Speaker 1: number four. The push is on. Welcome in the beginning
1:30
Speaker 1: of another hour of the Ben Malor Show. We are
1:35
Speaker 1: in the air everywhere as we fan the breeze, and
1:42
Speaker 1: we never give you the silent treatment, because in my job,
1:45
Speaker 1: that's really really bad. Coast, the coast, border, the border
1:49
Speaker 1: and beyond on the bass and ludicrously powerful microphones of
1:54
Speaker 1: fs are amminating live from the block, the stumbling block
2:00
Speaker 1: of sports talk from the world famous Fox Sports Radio

2:30
Speaker 1: I see the thumbs up there from Alf the Alien Opiners.
2:33
Speaker 1: So we can continue, been yapping away here all night long,
2:37
Speaker 1: and if you're getting up early trying to get to
2:39
Speaker 1: jump on traffic here, welcome in this hour our lead
2:42
Speaker 1: from Philadelphia. Another day and yet another storyline about the tushy.
2:48
Speaker 1: That's right, the Philadelphia Eagles. They're infamous tush push play,
2:54
Speaker 1: the tushy scene around the world against the Kansas City
2:58
Speaker 1: Chiefs at Arrowhead this past week. We can continues to
3:01
Speaker 1: have some life to it. If you've not heard the
3:05
Speaker 1: latest on this, perhaps not to Adam Schefter, I've heard
3:08
Speaker 1: of him. He tells us the tush push is on
3:12
Speaker 1: quote life support around the NFL, that time is ticking
3:18
Speaker 1: away on Philly's pseudo quarterback sneak, the trickeration of the
3:24
Speaker 1: Philadelphia Eagles the rugby play. So let us discuss the
3:28
Speaker 1: question now. Schefter said in his reporting that the play
3:33
Speaker 1: is on life support. What are the actual chances that
3:36
Speaker 1: the Eagles tush push is banned after the twenty twenty
3:41
Speaker 1: five seasons. So I've got Jat Kermit, the Frog and
3:47
Speaker 1: waffle Fries, and we will combine all of these things
3:51
Speaker 1: together and for our friend in Florida, We're gonna make
3:55
Speaker 1: the Goabba Goool we're gonna make the Goabba goool to
3:58
Speaker 1: lead off here. I am not bullish on the schefter
4:05
Speaker 1: reporting that the tush pushes on life support. The Malor
4:08
Speaker 1: odds on this are plus three point fifty five. Those
4:11
Speaker 1: are the Maler Sportsbook odds. Now that implies using Malormath,
4:16
Speaker 1: a twenty two point two percent chance the tush pushes man.
4:20
Speaker 1: So how did I come up with that number? Let
4:22
Speaker 1: me go through and I'll show you my work. I
4:25
Speaker 1: didn't use AI or anything like that, so that makes fine.
4:28
Speaker 1: So the vote, if you go back to last offseason
4:32
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty four, the vote came down to the wire.
4:35
Speaker 1: It was a photo finish. The ban needed twenty four
4:39
Speaker 1: votes in place. They got twenty two. So that means
4:44
Speaker 1: there were ten other teams that did not vote to
4:49
Speaker 1: ban the tushpush. So you're looking at those ten teams,
4:53
Speaker 1: you're assuming that the twenty two teams will continue to
4:57
Speaker 1: be against the tushy pushy. There's ten other teams, but
5:00
Speaker 1: there's really only nine other teams because the Philadelphia Eagles,
5:03
Speaker 1: I'm going to assume the position aren't going to vote
5:05
Speaker 1: to ban the tush push. So you're dealing with nine teams.
5:08
Speaker 1: So out of those nine teams, again we're eliminating the
5:12
Speaker 1: Philadelphia Eagles for obvious reasons, that voted to keep the
5:15
Speaker 1: play legal last season, you need to flip two of
5:21
Speaker 1: the nine. So that's a two twenty two batting average,
5:24
Speaker 1: So that I'm going with twenty two point two percent
5:26
Speaker 1: because that's the man. So who are those teams? If
5:29
Speaker 1: you're anti tush push, who needs to vote in favor
5:33
Speaker 1: of it to get rid of it? So they are
5:35
Speaker 1: the Ravens, the Browns, the Jaguars, the Miami Dolphins, the
5:41
Speaker 1: New England Patriots, and you've got the New Orleans Saints.
5:46
Speaker 1: I believe we're on there as well, the Jets and
5:47
Speaker 1: the Titans and the Lions. So you've got that mix
5:50
Speaker 1: of teams that are in there. And those are the nine,
5:55
Speaker 1: all right, So just a couple of NFC teams, most
5:57
Speaker 1: of them AFC teams. So two of the those teams
6:00
Speaker 1: have to vote to say bye bye tushy. It's what
6:04
Speaker 1: they have to do. And keep in mind, if you
6:06
Speaker 1: do the math on this, the Birds convert the tush
6:10
Speaker 1: push ninety six percent of the time. It started as
6:15
Speaker 1: a gimmick and it has become an unstoppable force in
6:18
Speaker 1: the NFL. That's some conversation in the overnight earlier with
6:22
Speaker 1: our buddy Fry Daddy in Pennsylvania, Big Eagles guy, and
6:28
Speaker 1: this play if it goes away, and again I don't
6:31
Speaker 1: believe there's a high chance it goes away. We'll see
6:35
Speaker 1: what happens the rest of the year. But the Eagles,
6:37
Speaker 1: they would go from the champions of the NFL to jats.
6:42
Speaker 1: That's just a team. They're just a team. After that.
6:46
Speaker 1: It is the only thing that they are truly dominanting at.
6:50
Speaker 1: That's it. That's the list right there. Jalen Hurts will
6:54
Speaker 1: be asked to do more. If you get the tush
6:57
Speaker 1: push and you take it away and you have to
6:58
Speaker 1: do traditional quarterbacks neak, he'll be asked to do more.
7:01
Speaker 1: And he hasn't shown that he can be the guy.
7:05
Speaker 1: You're not that guy, Palp, You're not that guy. For example,
7:09
Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts this season has two completions of ten or
7:12
Speaker 1: more air yards. Two it's dink and dunk, it's right
7:17
Speaker 1: at the line of scrimmage, its short passes within five yards.
7:20
Speaker 1: He's only got two passes of ten or more air yards.
7:23
Speaker 1: That is tied with Tyrod Taylor, the backup quarterback for
7:28
Speaker 1: the Jets. Tyrod Taylor for thirty fourth in the NFL.
7:32
Speaker 1: We are two games into the season. There's obviously a
7:35
Speaker 1: lot of real estate to navigate and circumvent around the NFL. However,
7:40
Speaker 1: we have to worry about the show we're doing right now,
7:42
Speaker 1: this hour and this hour. Like I said, the math
7:44
Speaker 1: is twenty two point two percent based on the nine
7:47
Speaker 1: teams having to flip two votes out of those nine teams,
7:52
Speaker 1: and then at the same time you have to keep
7:53
Speaker 1: everyone else, all the other teams that will continue to
7:57
Speaker 1: vote against the touchbucks. Now, furthermore, we go to Dallas,
8:01
Speaker 1: another storyline of the week, which goes back to Monday
8:05
Speaker 1: Night football making his coaching debut. Tom Brady on the
8:08
Speaker 1: wrong side of a blowout loss as his Raiders lost
8:11
Speaker 1: a bad job by Brady. So in Dallas, Cowboys coach
8:16
Speaker 1: Brian Schottenheimer announced not concerned. He's not concerned about letting
8:23
Speaker 1: secrets out, those state secrets. During a Fox production meeting,
8:28
Speaker 1: he has no problems with Tom Brady. In fact, Brady's
8:33
Speaker 1: doing the game this weekend between Dallas and Chicago, that
8:35
Speaker 1: is the big Fox game this weekend. Helps Otter, Jim
8:39
Speaker 1: Nantz and Romo. They got assigned to the Minnesota Cincinnati game.
8:44
Speaker 1: The battle of backups. Who goofed? I've got to know. Anyway,
8:49
Speaker 1: So this is about the Cowboys and the quote from
8:52
Speaker 1: Schottenheimer said, he said this quote. Everybody has everybody's playbook.
8:57
Speaker 1: Everybody knows somebody that knows somebody that's been some place.
9:03
Speaker 1: I don't have a problem with it, Schottenheimer said. Some
9:06
Speaker 1: people might. But look, I'll talk football with anybody close.
9:11
Speaker 1: Quote that is from Brian Schottenheimer, the temporary coach or
9:15
Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys the interim coach. All right, so here's
9:19
Speaker 1: the deal. That game the Cowboys visit the Raiders November seventeenth,
9:24
Speaker 1: So it's a month from now, a little less than
9:26
Speaker 1: a month from now. And that game is on Monday Night,
9:30
Speaker 1: which means Tom Brady will be in the coach's box again.
9:34
Speaker 1: So one of Schottenheimer's mentors is Raiders coach Pete Carroll.
9:39
Speaker 1: I would think his dad's more of a mentor than that.
9:41
Speaker 1: But anyway, question, how do you read these comments? How
9:45
Speaker 1: do you read these comments from Cowboys coach Brian Schottenheimer
9:48
Speaker 1: on being worried or not being worried in this case
9:51
Speaker 1: about Tom Brady working some kind of secret dragnet operation
9:55
Speaker 1: for the Raiders. So Brian schotneimber I thought about it.
9:58
Speaker 1: It actually makes sense on this one on a couple
10:01
Speaker 1: of levels. The obvious one is Schottenheimer has no secrets
10:03
Speaker 1: to start with, so if you have no secrets, you
10:06
Speaker 1: have nothing to worry about. He's a sock puppet. Brian
10:09
Speaker 1: Schttenheimer is essentially Kermit the Frog, and Jerry Jones is
10:11
Speaker 1: Jim Henson. If you know the history of the Muppets,
10:14
Speaker 1: and Jerry's playing the role of Jim Henson, He's got
10:17
Speaker 1: his hand jammed up Kermit the coach and the back there.
10:20
Speaker 1: So what intel do you think shotting would give away?
10:25
Speaker 1: Like the Cowboys playbook has been the same ever since
10:30
Speaker 1: Jimmy Johnson essentially had a mullet, right. You know, it's
10:33
Speaker 1: a run and it used to be emmet. Then it
10:35
Speaker 1: was Zeke, run up to God. Oh wait, no more, Zeke,
10:37
Speaker 1: He's not there. Okay, throw a slant, throw a couple
10:40
Speaker 1: of slants, throw a dump off, pass, punt, play defense, rinse, repeat,
10:45
Speaker 1: boom done. Schottenheimer is like a cardboard cutout, or if
10:50
Speaker 1: you go to those fast food restaurants, you know some
10:52
Speaker 1: of them have the they have the ceramic mascot out
10:55
Speaker 1: in front of the statue U. Yeah like that, that's
10:58
Speaker 1: kind of like what that is there, And so he's
11:00
Speaker 1: like the cardboard cutout on the sidelines there, and Jerry's
11:03
Speaker 1: up in the owner's box with his binoculars. He's got
11:05
Speaker 1: the goblet of Johnny Walker blue and he's pretending to
11:08
Speaker 1: be some kind of Lombardi like figure there, reincarnated in
11:12
Speaker 1: the in the box. And you think Tom Brady's gonna
11:16
Speaker 1: walk away from a Fox meeting with some nuclear codes
11:20
Speaker 1: or something like that. Of course not. But the Cowboys
11:24
Speaker 1: secret game plan. Oh, it's such a secret. The secret
11:26
Speaker 1: game plan is the what is it? He's like the
11:29
Speaker 1: football version of the Starbucks pumpkin spice Lotte. It comes
11:34
Speaker 1: back every year, same ingredients, right, and yeah, you're like
11:38
Speaker 1: it's okay, but you know, I don't really need it.
11:40
Speaker 1: You know, you might regret it. And all that. I
11:42
Speaker 1: did love the part where Schottenheimer says everybody's got everybody's playbook,
11:47
Speaker 1: everybody knows somebody and all that. It's like saying every
11:51
Speaker 1: restaurant has salt and pepper and it's right, yeah, no kidding.
11:55
Speaker 1: We know that they all have salt and pepper, but
11:56
Speaker 1: the real chefs actually know how to cook with it.
11:59
Speaker 1: And Tom, I'm Brady for all the gusto and all
12:02
Speaker 1: the brains and all those shiny trophies, and won with
12:05
Speaker 1: the Patriots on that one in Tampa Bay. You give
12:08
Speaker 1: Tom Brady Gino Smith and it's like Bill Belichick coaching
12:11
Speaker 1: Mac Jones. No luck, all right, no luck. It's he's
12:16
Speaker 1: trying to eat blood sausage dumplings. Not a good meal.
12:20
Speaker 1: Not a good meal, all right. Last thing, to Atlanta?
12:23
Speaker 1: We go, Why oh we go where the news of
12:26
Speaker 1: the day takes us? So running back Bjon Robinson off
12:29
Speaker 1: to a strong start, how strong he? Falcons head coach
12:33
Speaker 1: Raheem Morris was singing the praises. He was singing sweet
12:38
Speaker 1: little byes about Bjon Robinson. He went as far as
12:42
Speaker 1: to say that quote, definitely, Butjon Robinson is the best
12:49
Speaker 1: player in the NFL. That's right, he said. Quote, He's
12:53
Speaker 1: definitely the best player in football, without a doubt. Rahee
12:56
Speaker 1: Morris said this week Robinson currently ranks number five in
13:01
Speaker 1: the NFL. Number five. Yeah, we have a button for
13:05
Speaker 1: everything in rushing yards and is tied with forty nine
13:09
Speaker 1: er star Christian McCaffrey for the most receiving yards among
13:12
Speaker 1: all running backs so far this season. So question is
13:15
Speaker 1: Falcon running back Mahan Robinson definitely, as his coach said,
13:18
Speaker 1: the best football player around, best player in football. So
13:23
Speaker 1: Raheem Morris what he did on this one is he
13:25
Speaker 1: took the ladle, he dipped it in that Georgia peach cobbler,
13:30
Speaker 1: and he poured it right into the media's ear and
13:32
Speaker 1: then he sang a song. Zippity dude, da zippity day.
13:36
Speaker 1: My oh my, what a puff piece today. This is puffery,
13:41
Speaker 1: plain and simple. We know it, we all know it.
13:43
Speaker 1: I still get a kick out of it. It's Raheem
13:46
Speaker 1: Morris doing what coaches are supposed to do.
13:49
Speaker 2: Right.
13:49
Speaker 1: You've got your new favorite toy. You want to build
13:52
Speaker 1: up the confidence of it, and you know, crank up
13:55
Speaker 1: the old amplifier to eleven. If Raheem were coaching Sequon Barkley,
13:59
Speaker 1: he'd be saying the exact same thing. Or Christian McCaffrey,
14:03
Speaker 1: that's how the game is played. Or Derrick Henry, this
14:06
Speaker 1: is the classic coach move. You pour honey in your ear,
14:10
Speaker 1: you rub your shoulders, and you tell you you're the
14:15
Speaker 1: the best thing since Chick fil A's waffle fries. You're
14:18
Speaker 1: so good, you're just like the waffle fries. It's your
14:22
Speaker 1: special pep talk. They do that in youth soccer. They
14:26
Speaker 1: do that. Now that being said, you and I both
14:30
Speaker 1: know the legal definition of best is what. That's right,
14:35
Speaker 1: You're a good p one. You know, the legal definition
14:39
Speaker 1: for the term best is as good as all the
14:41
Speaker 1: rest in that category. That is why right now, wherever
14:45
Speaker 1: you are, just down the street, there's a sandwich shop
14:48
Speaker 1: that says the world's best hogi the world's best pizza.
14:51
Speaker 1: As long as you say the best, you don't get suit.
14:55
Speaker 1: You can't lose a lawsuit using that, as I understand it,
14:59
Speaker 1: because the best, the legal definition and advertising, means as
15:02
Speaker 1: good as all the rest. So of course we know
15:05
Speaker 1: success is not about an occasional highlight in the real world, right,
15:11
Speaker 1: the real world, Like technically Raheem Morris is not wrong.
15:14
Speaker 1: He can say that he's not incorrect, But in the
15:17
Speaker 1: real world, people hear the word best and they believe
15:20
Speaker 1: it actually is better. It's it's one of those phrases
15:23
Speaker 1: and I've studied this. I read a book years ago
15:25
Speaker 1: about infomercials because I was fascinated. When I was growing up,
15:28
Speaker 1: I was we didn't really have the internet so much,
15:30
Speaker 1: but we had we had infomercials late at night. We
15:33
Speaker 1: had commercials that were over the top, right, and it's like,
15:38
Speaker 1: how do they what are the tricks? And so I've
15:40
Speaker 1: read this book and some of the things that resonated.
15:42
Speaker 1: There's certain phrases that people overlook. It's like when you
15:45
Speaker 1: go shopping and you hear up to fifty percent off, well,
15:50
Speaker 1: up to fifty percent off is likely about two percent
15:52
Speaker 1: off if that, but people see up to they assume
15:55
Speaker 1: it means whatever the number next to up to is.
15:58
Speaker 1: It's one of those weird things where it's it's it's
16:00
Speaker 1: like a mind hack. And the term best is the
16:03
Speaker 1: same as well. People hear the term best and they
16:05
Speaker 1: think better than the best. I know Terry in England
16:08
Speaker 1: always thinks that when he does his list. But success
16:11
Speaker 1: is again not about the occasional highlight that goes viral
16:14
Speaker 1: on TikTok. It's about consistency. You can't be sporadically great.
16:18
Speaker 1: You can't have two good games and then suddenly you
16:22
Speaker 1: are called zeus on the mountaintop. That's not how ors.
16:24
Speaker 1: It is propaganda now. But Jeanne's fun, he's explosive. I
16:28
Speaker 1: don't have anything against the guy. Is he the best?
16:31
Speaker 1: Better than all the other? Run back? No, and we'll
16:34
Speaker 1: see how this shakes out. Everyone's been telling me for
16:36
Speaker 1: a couple of years that he's got all the town
16:38
Speaker 1: in the world and he's gonna be the breakout star
16:40
Speaker 1: and he's gonna carry the Atlanta Falcons. It's not Michael Pennex.
16:43
Speaker 1: It's this guy and not there yet? Now, will I

20:24
Speaker 1: look the same. Yes, I've been here a long time
20:31
Speaker 1: and they've had a couple of photo shoots and what
20:35
Speaker 1: I do and I have this is a skill. Not
20:38
Speaker 1: everyone in radio has this skill, so they've done. I
20:41
Speaker 1: think I've been here way too long. I've had maybe
20:45
Speaker 1: four photo shoots for Fox Sports Radio, and every time
20:50
Speaker 1: they've done a photo shoot, every single time, I'm Mike
20:54
Speaker 1: Turkey before Thanksgiving, I fatten up right before the photo
20:57
Speaker 1: shoot to get really fat for the photos wonderful and
21:01
Speaker 1: the only good publicity photos I've had taken over by
21:04
Speaker 1: NBC when I did the TV show. They did really
21:07
Speaker 1: good photos, but the radio photos are terrible. That's a
21:10
Speaker 1: terrible photo terrific, but I don't think we'll be having
21:14
Speaker 1: another photo shoot. I don't think that. But thanks James
21:16
Speaker 1: the pool guy. I'm glad you're out there. I know
21:19
Speaker 1: you work the dreaded day shift. So there you go.
21:22
Speaker 1: All right, very nice. Let's go to the phones and
21:24
Speaker 1: we'll say hello to Van the one legged Baba Man. Hello,
21:29
Speaker 1: Van the one legged Bamba Man. Hello. If I was
21:36
Speaker 1: any better, i'd be sleeping.
21:37
Speaker 5: But you're up early, absolutely crazy hour.
21:43
Speaker 1: Okay, well about about an hour ago.
21:46
Speaker 2: But okay, I got you a beanie for the peenie
21:50
Speaker 2: like I know you hate. I know you hate chasers,
21:55
Speaker 2: but yeah, did I pease both flow down to four?
21:59
Speaker 2: And they've won thirteen and fourteen against the Dolphins, one nine,
22:05
Speaker 2: the last nine in Buffalo. I t yeah, the Jaguars
22:10
Speaker 2: to plus five. They that's that's the especially need a
22:17
Speaker 2: single game bet calls. Houston lostone Monday that football and
22:21
Speaker 2: their own red Detex.
22:23
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, So I as you know, I am not
22:27
Speaker 1: a big teaser guy. I don't normally fights around with
22:31
Speaker 1: I don't normally fights around with teasers. If I were
22:34
Speaker 1: to futz around, I'm just looking at the card here
22:36
Speaker 1: and I will have the Benny versus the panything. I'll
22:38
Speaker 1: be up later today and all that, I would think.
22:42
Speaker 1: Just see, I can't imagine Seattle losing to the Saints,
22:45
Speaker 1: and you get that at like one and a half.
22:48
Speaker 1: The Saints are terrible. I think you should. But the
22:53
Speaker 1: only problem with that is just Sam Donald. And you know,
22:55
Speaker 1: do you really trust Sam Donald with your money? That's
22:58
Speaker 1: the problem with that one. That betting against bad teams.
23:02
Speaker 1: That's the first road game that's not bad. And I
23:05
Speaker 1: can't imagine the Rams getting blown out by the e
23:08
Speaker 1: Rams could lose that game. I don't think they're gonna
23:11
Speaker 1: get blown out. So if you're getting ten points, I
23:13
Speaker 1: think that's a fourth quarter game. It comes down to
23:15
Speaker 1: a play in the fourth quarter.
23:17
Speaker 2: So win.
23:24
Speaker 1: That guy McVeigh. That guy McVeigh knows and McVeagh seems
23:27
Speaker 1: to know what he's doing.
23:28
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, very good.
23:30
Speaker 1: Yeah, they're not winning anything this year. They're done. They
23:37
Speaker 1: got they got you know, they got you know what
23:40
Speaker 1: it is, man, they got no dog in them. They
23:41
Speaker 1: only just don't fight. They're not very just they're like
23:45
Speaker 1: they're a good bad baseball team, Like they have a
23:49
Speaker 1: good record. But I don't I don't know, I just
23:51
Speaker 1: just they're not There's something now, as you know, man,
23:54
Speaker 1: because you're a baseball guy, Van, that we see this
23:57
Speaker 1: every year, that the Dodgers I thought last year weren't
23:59
Speaker 1: partic good, and then in October they they turned it on.
24:03
Speaker 2: So yeah, you're right, that plays the best and regularly
24:07
Speaker 2: necessarily out.
24:10
Speaker 1: Exactly exactly and only anyone particularly is that the Brewers
24:14
Speaker 1: were great for like two months. They cooled off a
24:17
Speaker 1: little bit, and you.
24:18
Speaker 2: Know the Red.
24:23
Speaker 1: Yeah, the Phillies are tough. I mean, I thought, I
24:25
Speaker 1: can't believe they haven't won with this group like the
24:28
Speaker 1: last couple of years they've been they've been, they've been
24:30
Speaker 1: loaded for the last several years, and they haven't won
24:32
Speaker 1: a World Series. He got there, so yeah, for sure.
24:39
Speaker 1: Yeah all right, man, list how's how's the leg here?
24:41
Speaker 1: Of course, I love telling the story about I always
24:44
Speaker 1: tell my friends about They ask about the radio show.
24:46
Speaker 1: I said, let me tell you about Van the One
24:47
Speaker 1: Legged Bama Man, the ultimate story for those for those
24:51
Speaker 1: that don't know, Van the one Legged Bama Man had
24:54
Speaker 1: his leg bitten off by a gator and then they
24:57
Speaker 1: killed the gator and ate the gator. How great is
24:59
Speaker 1: that that's an amazing story. That is one of the
25:02
Speaker 1: all time great stories.
25:03
Speaker 2: I got cancer and I have some coming out, so
25:07
Speaker 2: it's always so well, hear you.
25:12
Speaker 1: We'll hang in there and good luck him if they
25:14
Speaker 1: catch that. You know, I don't. I don't know your situation.
25:16
Speaker 1: Hopefully they can take care of you and keep your
25:18
Speaker 1: many many more years. All right, thank you Van. All right,
25:22
Speaker 1: there's a van, the one legged bam a man. He's
25:26
Speaker 1: been through the wringer a van. Absolutely, it would be
25:30
Speaker 1: cool to only have one leg. There's I can say something,
25:36
Speaker 1: but I think let's go to a not Choe average,
25:41
Speaker 1: not Joe average. What's up? Not Joe average? Oh your
25:47
Speaker 1: phone sucks? Not your average? Oh no, oh no, oh
25:53
Speaker 1: your son. I can't take the call. I get fired.
25:56
Speaker 1: I can't take the car. I want to take the car.
25:58
Speaker 1: I can't take the call. I can't take a call.
26:03
Speaker 1: Would have been a good call? Why the phone died?
26:07
Speaker 1: A good call? Bull crap? It was a good call,
26:11
Speaker 1: all right. I think maybe we might have had it
26:13
Speaker 1: worked out here. All right, Nat your average? You're back?
26:16
Speaker 1: Not your average? No? All right, he still sound horrible.
26:25
Speaker 1: That's not good. Why is it that when I pick
26:27
Speaker 1: up the receiver. He sounds fine and I'm talking to him.
26:33
Speaker 1: What line is he on?
26:35
Speaker 2: What?
26:35
Speaker 1: Five?
26:37
Speaker 6: No?
26:37
Speaker 1: Much? Five? You might want to contact engineering and let
26:41
Speaker 1: him know when they wake up that line five is
26:44
Speaker 1: fed up. All right? That sucks. That's going well. Here
26:46
Speaker 1: we go. Keg drinking Steve, Hello, kig drinking Steve.
26:51
Speaker 5: Oh, nacho, nacho man. That guy sounds great. That actually
26:55
Speaker 5: improved the show man. That was That was fantastic. What
27:00
Speaker 5: did you think about the mediocre broadcaster Tom Brady who
27:05
Speaker 5: is skip maless, can't even listen to anymore. He said
27:09
Speaker 5: that the Eagles are cheating. Tom Brady should know. He's
27:13
Speaker 5: the master. He's the all time master of cheating. They're
27:18
Speaker 5: gonna report him. Andy Reid's going to report them to
27:20
Speaker 5: the league. The Chiefs stopped the brotherly show the toosh post,
27:24
Speaker 5: and then they got it on the next on the
27:26
Speaker 5: next down. But I think this is fantastic that we're
27:29
Speaker 5: finally exposing all the cheaters in the NFL that won
27:33
Speaker 5: the Super Bowl. Maybe they should go to give us
27:36
Speaker 5: the Super Bowl the Eagles or the Eagles are professional cheaters.
27:40
Speaker 5: I haven't heard anybody talking. I haven't heard anybody talking about.
27:44
Speaker 1: It now I like the fact that you're avoiding the
27:46
Speaker 1: pink elephant in the room, the Komodo dragon in the
27:49
Speaker 1: corner of the room here, the heel monster over there,
27:51
Speaker 1: the giant oversized heela monster. Which is your team, mister
27:54
Speaker 1: Kansas City boy. The Chiefs, who right now are in
27:58
Speaker 1: the running for the number one overall in the twenty
28:03
Speaker 1: six NFL Draft. In fact, if you go over to
28:07
Speaker 1: Tankafon right now, the Chiefs would be picking eighth, but
28:10
Speaker 1: they're tied with the Chad Saints, Dolphins, Browns, Titans, Bears, Carolina,
28:16
Speaker 1: and Houston all it own to so right now they'd
28:18
Speaker 1: be eighth overall.
28:19
Speaker 5: Oh Sam, good to me, man, we need then. You
28:22
Speaker 5: don't understand this is all preseason. The next six weeks
28:27
Speaker 5: are preseason. It doesn't matter. We're gonna win the Super
28:30
Speaker 5: Bowl at nine and eight. Everybody in the whole league
28:32
Speaker 5: is terrible, except for Green Bay. Maybe they would be
28:36
Speaker 5: a challenge for the Chiefs, but we're just gonna skate
28:39
Speaker 5: on through and get a wide receivers back and and
28:42
Speaker 5: well we've done this before. You have to understand we
28:44
Speaker 5: won a Super Bowl going on the roads, going every
28:47
Speaker 5: game on the road, So it makes no difference. You
28:51
Speaker 5: cannot stop us. We're gonna get Tyreek Hill.
28:55
Speaker 1: Hope.
28:55
Speaker 5: Well, the Miami Dolphins lose, lose tonight, why why not.
28:59
Speaker 1: Go and get you a get Justin Jefferson. He's pretty good.
29:02
Speaker 1: How about that?
29:02
Speaker 5: Listen, listen, you can take us at plus two fifty
29:06
Speaker 5: to win, to win the division or off. There's there's
29:08
Speaker 5: a money making opportunity right right here.
29:12
Speaker 2: Man.
29:12
Speaker 5: What's a wounded animal is the most dangerous animal in civilization.
29:18
Speaker 5: So when all you guys are shocked when we take
29:21
Speaker 5: home titles as a five hundred record that I'm going to,
29:24
Speaker 5: I'll be standing alone on Mount Everest like I always am.
29:28
Speaker 5: With my thought.
29:30
Speaker 1: I thought you were. You were going to stand on
29:32
Speaker 1: Mount Mahomes, not Mount Everest.
29:34
Speaker 5: What do you think of? What do you think about
29:37
Speaker 5: Bill Belichick's girlfriend wanting to have a partner wanting to
29:41
Speaker 5: take over Dancing with the Stars.
29:44
Speaker 1: Well, there you go. You must be reading my mind.
29:46
Speaker 1: This is all over the tabloids. Look at you. You
29:49
Speaker 1: you you read the tabloids so much you're unbelievable. What
29:53
Speaker 1: about it? You love Chiefs football? Yeah, so all right,
29:57
Speaker 1: shut up for a second, take a breath. All right,
29:59
Speaker 1: So is doc Mike would say, take a break. So
30:01
Speaker 1: the tabloids are saying Bill Belichick's lady friend, the twenty
30:05
Speaker 1: four year old Jordann Hudson, was going to be on
30:09
Speaker 1: Dancing with the Stars, like the very popular shows. One
30:11
Speaker 1: of the few shows that isn't sports that people watch
30:14
Speaker 1: every week, Dancing with the Stars, and so she was
30:16
Speaker 1: going to be on it. That seems to be kind
30:18
Speaker 1: of a big deal. And the tabloids say that she
30:21
Speaker 1: was supposed to be one of the stars this season,
30:23
Speaker 1: but two days before the cast was announced, they called
30:26
Speaker 1: off the deal. She was supposed to be on. But
30:29
Speaker 1: apparently she was such a diva that she had all
30:34
Speaker 1: this long list of demands that she wanted from the
30:38
Speaker 1: producers and they're like, well, you're really nobody other than
30:41
Speaker 1: the person you're sleeping with, so we don't really need you.
30:43
Speaker 1: You're kind of a headache. You're not exactly Taylor Swift
30:46
Speaker 1: over there. So yeah, she didn't end up doing it,
30:50
Speaker 1: but she wanted control over all kinds of as this
30:53
Speaker 1: guy said, the dance partner when to practice so she
30:57
Speaker 1: could attend games with you know, Bellichie and all that stuff,
31:01
Speaker 1: And she didn't like the direction of the show. Her
31:06
Speaker 1: story on the show, according to the tablets, a big
31:09
Speaker 1: story in the Daily Mail, sounds very diva ish, don't
31:12
Speaker 1: you think, Yeah, wouldn't you think this is her fifteen
31:15
Speaker 1: minutes of fame? We're real you, Yeah, exactly Like Belichick's
31:20
Speaker 1: kind of old and it doesn't go well at North Carolina.
31:23
Speaker 1: He'll be out there, maybe he'll his family will hold
31:25
Speaker 1: an intervention, they'll he'll dump her or whatever. So then
