  Speaker 1: throwing a horseshoe at you. Welcome in the beginning of
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: another hour of the Ben Mahler Show. We are in
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: the air everywhere, making life interesting unless we're not. As
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: we juggle around coast coast, border to border and beyond
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: on the best and intergalactically powerful microphones of fs are
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: they say, those radio waves just keep going and going
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: and going and going out into the cosmos far far away,
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: emanating live from the theater, the theater of the mind,
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: and the theater of the absurd, from the world famous
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio studios as approved by Angie and Brian.
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: Big fans of the show Angie and Brian and this
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: portion of the program made possible in part by our
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: friends at ti Iraq. For over forty years, ty Iraq
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: has been helping customers find the right tires for how,
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: what and where they drive ship fast and free back
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: by free road hazard protection with convenient installation options like
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: mobile tire installation ti raq dot Com The Way Tire
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: Buying Showy. So our lead this hour is from in Theannapolis,
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: a city known for the Indianapolis five hundred and a
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: lot of basketball. Who's your state? It's about football, It's
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: about football. Status update on demoted quarterback status update demoted quarterback.
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: If you've not heard, perhaps not. We had a rubarb
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: of sorts Colts general manager Chris Ballard, who somehow has
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: kept his job while wonder if that's going to continue.
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: Jim Irsay, the late owner of the Colts, very loyal
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: to Chris Ballard, who's put some really bad football teams together.
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: So Chris Ballard, the bloviating, blowhard general manager of the
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: Indianapolis Colts, he said that the team is not going
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: to trade bust quarterback Anthony Richardson who stinks, but they're
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: not trading him. Richardson, you might know, was demoted in
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: favor of another legendary stiff, Daniel Jones, the stumblebum who
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: failed year after year with the New York Giants in
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: embarrassing fashion. Ballard was quizzed on the possibility of unloading
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: the dead weight it is Anthony Richardson, and he responded
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: by saying, we're not trading him. Okay, we're not trading fine,
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: all right, so let us discuss the question. The Colt
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: front office says they are not going to deal away
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: bench quarterback Anthony Richardson. What does this signal to you?
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: So I've got spelling, bee, bellagio, and parallel parking, and
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: we will combine all of these things together and we
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: are gonna make delicious cinnamon rolls. Yum yum to my
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: Tom Tom So number I said, number all right, all right.
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: So this is a tale well of denial, dysfunction, and
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: delusion mixed with devotion. A lot of d's, a lot
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: of DSE denial, dysfunction, delusion, and devotion. It's also some stubbornness.
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: The Indianapolis colts. Those lovable or should I say unlovable
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: grid iron gatekeepers there of mediocrity. That's really the job
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: of Chris Ballard. He is the gatekeeper there of mediocrity.
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: They're at it again. So let me translate what the
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: Ballard of the ball said into reality. Here's how I
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: determined what the GM there the Colts said. He essentially said,
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: we tried to trade Anthony Richardson. Nobody wanted the guy
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: because he's covered in fleas and flies, and now we're
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: stuck holding onto this guy. He's a hot potato. So
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: this is the NFL's version of trying to sell a
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: used car that has no engine. That car's gotten engine,
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: it's got three flat tires, and if you open the
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: glove box there's a raccoon living in there. You can
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: slap a fresh coat of paint on it, right, you
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: can say a slightly used and it still smells like regret.
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: There's some problems there now the Colts front office. Really,
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: what they're doing Ballard is like an overnight sports talk
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: radio caller from years ago. Spin cycle, Regina, Spin, Spin, Spin, Spin,
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: Spin out of Minnesota. They're not ready to admit they're
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: in Indy that they drafted a turkey, But they did
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: draft a Turkey. Now, later on, in this fiery confrontation
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: between the Colt GM and the media, Ballard claimed that
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: Richardson would quote be learning behind a professional, is what
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: he said regarding his status here in twenty twenty five.
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: Now that is code for we are hiding Anthony Richardson
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: the quarterback behind another quarterback, Daniel Jones, and hoping that
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: nobody notices that he also also has bo right, which
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: made us wonder, made us wonder if the Colts GM
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: has been hanging out with the Golden Dragon. If you
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: know what I mean here losing a quarterback battle like
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: to Daniel Jones. If you're Anthony Richardson and you lost
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: a quarterback battle to Daniel Jones, it is akin to
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: losing a spelling bee to a parrot. Okay, you should
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: never lose a spelling bee to a parrot, and you
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: should never lose a quarterback competition to Daniel Jones. If
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: you're a top five draft pick with the team that
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: drafted you, and the rest of the NFL knows the
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: culture bluff, they're waiting for the inevitable waiver wire clearance sale.
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: Why pay full price when you can scoop Richardson up
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: for free, if you'd even want him. Iired some chatter
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: that Richardson will have a chance to change positions. He's
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: that bad. He's that bad as a quarterback. Now, my
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: counter to that is Richardson gets hurt all the time,
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: mostly running the ball. So if you're gonna make him
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: a running back or some kind of tight end or
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: something like that, wouldn't he just keep getting hurt? So
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: what's the point?
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: All right? Now?
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: Page two to the waiver wire. As we run the
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: mouth to the waiver wire, waiver wire, and look over there,
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: Tommy DeVito has a new home. Do you see this? Yes,
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: that Tommy Davido. He's got a new home. Tommy DeVito
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: is headed too the New England football team, the folk
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: hero quarterback from Jersey, native of New Jersey, claimed off
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: waivers by the Patsies. And that ends that romantic rom
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: com with his hometown Giants. So why, you ask, would
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: the Patriots a team currently wandering the quarterback desert. They
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: don't know whether Drake May is going to be good
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: or not, and they have the astronaut as the backup,
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: So why would they grab Tommy DeVito? It's pretty simple here,
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: all right. It's kind of like you're you've paid for
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: the buffet at the Belagio. You're walking down the buffet line.
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: You see the prime rib is already gone. The herb
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: crusted chicken with champagne cream sauce is empty. But there
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: is a little bit of spaghetti and a couple of
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: meat balls just sitting there. Now do you want that
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: as your meal? Probably not, you know, not really. However,
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: you're not just gonna walk away from the buffet empty handy.
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: You don't want to be hungry, so you take the
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: plate and that's it. And that's what the patriots are
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: doing here. It's not really about de Vito being some
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: kind of savior, you know. This is not the second
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: coming of Tom Brady. No not, They're going to ride
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: in there on a white horse. That's not it. It's
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: more of a pat job, little Duc tape and all that.
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: So Mike Rabel's patriots. They are the guys who busted
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: a tire on the on the highway there and they
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: rolled into the gas station and they said, okay, I
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: got a new tire. It's gonna cost you this much
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: as I don't want a new tire, I'm gonna get
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: one of those cans of the you know that fix
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: a flat thing. I'll just get that and I'll get
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: to fix a flat and that's it. That's Tommy Cutlets.
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: The veto Tommy DeVito is a fun story, right, We
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: talked about him a lot in the previous episode. I
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: think we all know the story. We pay attention to
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: this stuff. Rocky bow bowa right, you know, he's he's
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: so Italian. He takes a bath in marinera sauce and
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: but this is desperation, and so the Patriots like, ah,
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: why not? You know, you imagine when this guy gets
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: to the Patriots on those nights off, when he's out
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: there partying at those great Italian restaurants on the North End,
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: and he'll be the Tommy Cutlets character and say, well,
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: you're not from around here, but you're Tommy Cutlets, so
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: come on down all right now, final point, we head
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: now to Nashville. We go to Nashville where the captains
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: have arrived. That's right, it's that time of the year.
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: Expect to hear a lot of this content in the
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: next couple of days, teams announcing their captains. The first
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: team up that would be the team in Nashville. I'm
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: sure Danny and Nashville is very excited about this. Soll
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: he lives in Miami. Among the seven captains seven, they
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: named seven captains. Among these seven captains for the worst
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: team in football, the Titans. They decided that rookie quarterback
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: cam Ward, the number one over in the twenty twenty
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: five collegiate draft out of Miami but mostly Washington State,
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: is a captain. So let's jump off on that. That's
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: good jumping off point. So let's discuss that particular story.
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: Rookie quarterback cam being named a team captain for the
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: Tennessee Titans is blank fill in the blank, all right,
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: So this is the the word I will use on
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: this is premature. It is a classic case of premature
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: coronation syndrome. And this is an example of given, not earn, given, noddern.
• 11:27
  Speaker 3: Now.
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: I am Benny Brightside. I want cam Ward to be
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: good because I have a feeling he's going to help
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: me out, that he's going to do things verbally that
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: are going to be good for talk radio. But the
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: only reason, the only way, rather the only way that
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: really translates, is if he's good. If he's terrible, we'll
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: just goof on him and he'll go away, and he'll
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: be working in insurance somewhere in a couple of years.
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: But Ward has been named the captain of the Tennessee
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: Titans before he's even learned how to parallel park. There's
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: no parallel parking yet in the NFL, and he doesn't
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: know how to parallel park. He hasn't done anything. He
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: hasn't had a chance to do anything. So my default position,
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: and this has been my default position on all rookie
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: quarterbacks since the beginning of time, that in two proven otherwise,
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: cam Ward and all rookie quarterbacks have more question marks
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: than the nemesis of Batman the Riddler. Remember the costume
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: the Riddler would wear. With all the other question marks,
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: there's a lot of questions. And so I understand what
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: they're trying to do, and this is not going to
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: be the only one. You'll see a bunch of other
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: like what the f was that? How's that guy a captain?
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: But they're trying to manifest that this man's a leader.
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: It's like some vision boards, like a vision board that's
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: taped to the dorm room wall and all that, Like
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: it's one of those phrases. I'm going to speak this
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: into existence, they say, and it's going to happen. It's
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: all all I have to do is speak this into existence.
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: That's it. And so the Titans acting a little bit
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: like a Disney movie. If you believe hard enough that
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: cam Ward will become the leader that we need. Generally speaking,
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: that's not how it works. That's not how any of
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: this works. So we can agree to differ on that
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: particular point. We'll see what happens. And I want to
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: point out again, I've got to get these monologues in
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: on these really bad teams, because once the season gets
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: going here, we'll not be talking about them unless it
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: gets even worse. They go, how low can you go?
• 13:42
  Speaker 3: Right?
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: How low can you go? How far down can you go?
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: And the suck Avenue? Where do Suck Avenue end? We'll
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: find out right, crank it up a couple of notches
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: and just see how far down Suck Avenue you can go.
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: It is the Ben Mahlor shown Malors show. As we
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: are just getting started here, it's hour number two. Later
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: this hour we will have Mallard of the third Degree.
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: We'll have the Inch to Trivia coming up. A little
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: bit later as well. We've got Bumpety Bump and the
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: candid Camera store. I'm gonna get to that right now,
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: the candid camera story. So, Freddie Freeman is a baseball
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: player for the Dodgers, kind of a big deal. He's
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: gonna be in the Hall of Fame someday, and won
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: a couple of World series, won some big honors individually.
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: And Freddie Freeman was caught on camera during the Dodger
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: Reds game back on Wednesday night at Chavez Ravine in
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: the dugout, and he was very aggressively pulling a nosehair
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: out of his schnaz and it was caught on camera.
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: And I don't mean just a little I kind of
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: grab the thing and then pull it lightly. I mean
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: a very aggressive snatchy of the nose hair with two fingers.
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: He had his thumb and then he had his pointer
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: finger and it he just ripped the hair right out
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: of his nose. Right now, I think that's supposed to
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: cause you to tear up a little bit. They moved
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: the camera away. They moved the camera away. I think
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: it generally leads you to sneeze, But I don't know
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: what happened. I'm also told they later on. I didn't
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: see this, but somebody sent me a text that they
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: showed Max Munci who was trying to find some gold
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: up his nostril. There so a very good camera work
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: at the Dodger game last night. But Freddy Freeman man
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: that is Hey, you're watching a ball game, it's the
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: middle innings. You know, you gotta get that annoying hair,
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: that loose hair in your nose and you just have
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: to rip it out. And he ripped it out and
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: it was caught on camera, and of course it went
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: immediately viral as people were fascinated that he did not
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: show any kind of pain when he ripped that thing
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: right out of his schnaz. It is the Ben Mahler Show.

  Speaker 1: Nothing like the mailbag at all. It's much different than
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: the mail bag. That'll be next our saleo to Lorena
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: FSR Tech Queen. She's enjoying some lady party, some pizza,
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: and we have Cooper Loop at a Bronco fan. Bronco fan,
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: your comments can and will be used against you in
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: the court of sports radio. And now back to it,
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: back to where we go. We started here with a
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: hodgepodge of a Mallard monologue bouncing around the Indianapolis Colts
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: and their GM Chris Ballard. We're not trailing Anthony Richardson.
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: You think of a team like the RAM said we'll
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: trade your first round pick for Anthony Richardson. They would say,
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: we're not trading Anthony Richardson. Yeah, he'd be on the
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: first flight out of Indy. He's gone. Tommy DeVito is
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: now a Patriot for now. I've been hearing from my
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: boots on the ground in Boston that the past or
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: not has been sucking. I'm not watching training camp, so
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: I couldn't tell you whether that's true or not. But
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: some of my guys there, oh, he's terrible. That's why
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: they brought him in. Okay, Well, Tommy DeVito sucks also,
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: and cam Ward captain of your Tennessee Titans. I know
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: you're very excited about that, very very excited. Mark the
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: Full Name Guy says that Freddie Freeman's got true grit.
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: That is me reacting. Why dott as I watch Freddie
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: Freeman would rip out a nostril here and not even
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: bat an eyelash. Freddie has already torn out all his eyelashes.
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: His eyebrows too, are gone. Freddie likes to watch women shave, apparently,
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: according to Mark the Full Name Guy, see what else
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: do we have have here? Ferg Dogg says, hey, Ben
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: can you do me a solid and cut out the
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: Angel score from Moncey's update? Nobody needs to hear that
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: all night. Thanks. Yeah. What I'll do ferg Dog is
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: I'll call Moncy. I'll have her wake up and come
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: back into the station and re record the update. How
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: about that? Would that make you happy? Aboso? The district
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: attorney rights and says, why do the Colts think Anthony
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: Richardson will improve under Daniel Jones if he did not
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: improve under Super Bowl winning quarterback Joe Flacco? Well, Joe
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: Flacco clearly clearly elite, clearly clearly elite without without a doubt,
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: without a doubt. All right, let's go this is better
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: than the best. Uh, let's go down to let's go
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: to a golden ticket and then we'll get to the
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: other people on Let's go to Felexus, America's favorite drag
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: queen caller in Buffalo. Hello, Felexus oh Man, Hello, Damn.
• 21:02
  Speaker 7: Mary Allen, John boy, whoever who cares? Hey, that's Steve Forman,
• 21:06
  Speaker 7: He's sometime asmall That guy drives me nuts. And they're terrible.
• 21:13
  Speaker 7: They're looking they're gonna win six games this year. What
• 21:17
  Speaker 7: do you think about that? Ben? And you think I'm
• 21:19
  Speaker 7: right or wrong?
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: Who's going to win six games? I tuned you out
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: because you were boring me. The Colts win six games? Yeah,
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: I was just talking about the Colts. No, listen, the
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: culture in If you look at the Colts division, it
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: is the outhouse. The two southern divisions, the AFC South
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: and the NFC South are like a wasteland. Like there's
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: completely horrific divisions from top to bottom. But the win
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: total on the Colts this year, if you go by
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: the gambling odds in Las Wages, Nevada, which is the
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: Holy Grail as you know, the Colts win total is
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: seven and a half. I'm the one under seven and
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: that's that seems pretty high. Seven and a half for
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: the Colts with Daniel Jones at quarterbacks. So I'm going
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: under the window now.
• 22:05
  Speaker 7: The Colts are like the homeless people of the NFL.
• 22:09
  Speaker 7: As far as I concur they're no good, just like
• 22:12
  Speaker 7: like the people down there and check them though they're
• 22:16
  Speaker 7: no good. Nobody's no good anymore?
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: Who else? Who else do you held? Only you like
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: the bills that you hit everyone else?
• 22:23
  Speaker 7: Correct, Well, I can't like who do I like?
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: I don't know? I'm asking you a question like the
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: why would you like the forty nine ers?
• 22:34
  Speaker 7: I just like them? Why can't I like them?
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: Because you're a Bills fan? You can't have two teams.
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: You can have one team?
• 22:39
  Speaker 7: Can't Can you ask me who else do I like?

• 22:47
  Speaker 1: who else do I like? You asked yourself, and I
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: repeated your own words.
• 22:52
  Speaker 7: Don't you raise your voice with me. I'll set the
• 22:54
  Speaker 7: boot out out of you.
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: I don't want you to hit me.
• 22:57

  Speaker 2: in North Las Vegas. There is only one Vegas and
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: that is North Las Vegas.
• 24:07
  Speaker 9: Hey, look at it.
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: Man. You were talking about the Yankees and that other
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: Manhattan guy was talking about the Yankees and last year's
• 24:15
  Speaker 2: World Series and they were talking. You were talking about
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: vopee and uh, judge, well, let me tell you something.
• 24:22
  Speaker 9: They didn't lose the game.
• 24:23
  Speaker 2: Okay, Nestor lost the damn game. He put that flower
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: up there to Freeman, and Freeman, you know, got all
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: ugly ad and said, wow, look at that, and out
• 24:34
  Speaker 2: it goes.
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah. That was that was Game one, though, snooker. That
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: was game one. We're talking about Game five where the
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: Yankees had to win that game and conceivably turned the
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: series around and they blew it.
• 24:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, well I understand that, but still, you know,
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: it doesn't make any difference. Nessa came in game five?
• 24:57
  Speaker 9: Didn't he come in Game five?
• 25:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: I'm talking The game was not decided by Nestor, though
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: it was decided by Garrett, Garrett Cole and Aaron Judge
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: and Volpi all fing up. Come on, wouldn't you trying
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: to spin the story? What's wrong with you?
• 25:12
  Speaker 7: Hey?
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: One more thing?
• 25:13
  Speaker 7: Hey?
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: You?
• 25:14
  Speaker 9: The thing is, you know, I played some little league baseball,
• 25:17
  Speaker 9: and I played a year in high school and in
• 25:19
  Speaker 9: little league baseball, you know, you get the fundamentals, and
• 25:22
  Speaker 9: they tell you in the outfield, if you catch the
• 25:24
  Speaker 9: sly ball.
• 25:24
  Speaker 2: You use two hands. What does didn't use two hands?
• 25:27
  Speaker 2: You know, all these these outfielders now they're all out there,
• 25:29
  Speaker 2: nonchalant to throw the glove up and then oh yeah,
• 25:33
  Speaker 2: the ball is going to be right there. You're supposed
• 25:35
  Speaker 2: to use two hands when you're in the housefield you
• 25:36
  Speaker 2: catch the sly ball, all.
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: Right, So really the Yankees should hire you, Snooker. You
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: can go coach for the Yankees. You get the uniform,
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: you get to travel with the team. You can be
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: the defensive coach for the Yankees. How about that.
• 25:48
  Speaker 2: You don't understand I sent them. I send them text
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: messages all the time.
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: Hey, right, do they do they ever listen? Do they
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: ever respond? Snooker? When you send the Yankees messages.
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: To the you know, it's just like anything else. Hey,
• 25:59
  Speaker 2: you know what I told you the other night that
• 26:01
  Speaker 2: I took the red pill for the NFL and the NBA. Well,
• 26:05
  Speaker 2: the only sport that I actually like to watch is
• 26:08
  Speaker 2: baseball because there's no drama.
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: You know, there is drama in baseball. It's just it's
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: slow developing drama like it.
• 26:18
  Speaker 2: Ain't like the NFL and NBA drama that's every day,
• 26:22
  Speaker 2: every second, every minute. You know that's crazy.
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: But if you now, you do understand snowgre if you
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: took the red pill, you're just staying in wonderland, right,
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: So you don't you you're still a fan of everything.
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: You're in wonderland, right, No.
• 26:34
  Speaker 2: No, no, no no no. Well, I'm of split. But
• 26:37
  Speaker 2: I've seen the reality of the NFL and the NBA.
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: What is the what is the reality of the I
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: got to hear this because you were yelling at me
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: at the meet and greet. It was great meeting you.
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: As I said the other night, I really enjoyed you.
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: A great character. But that but what is the reality?
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: Explain to me. You were yelling at me that I
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: need to talk about snooker, and I I told you,
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: I said, you want me to lose my job. But
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: but why should Why are you against the NFL in
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: the NBA?
• 27:01
  Speaker 2: Go ahead, okay, okay, all right, all right, all right,
• 27:03
  Speaker 2: let me explain to you. Because the NFL is not
• 27:05
  Speaker 2: the NFL anymore, and the NBA is not the NBA anymore.
• 27:09
  Speaker 2: Every time you turn on the radio, go oh, he's
• 27:11
  Speaker 2: the greatest athlete in the world. That's hockey puff. Every
• 27:15
  Speaker 2: time turning around, these clowns are getting hurt. I remember,
• 27:18
  Speaker 2: the last time I saw an excellent football game is
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: when the Bears won the Super Bowl.
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: It was a football player, you know, forty years ago.
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: You haven't seen you have not seen a good foot

  Speaker 1: more money. Suddenly. You don't rub some dirt on it.
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: You don't get back out there and play. You don't
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: take a couple of advil and get back on the field.
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: Some ibuprofen, you know, farm grade. You don't do that.

• 28:16
  Speaker 2: was slucker. The table game was slicker. The table is
• 28:19
  Speaker 2: twelve feet long, six feet wide. The greatest game in
• 28:23
  Speaker 2: the world. Okay, anybody that wants to learn how to
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: actually play the game of pool. Most people play nine
• 28:29
  Speaker 2: ball and eight ball and all that other stuff. The
• 28:32
  Speaker 2: snooker is the game. It's a thinking man's game. Okay.
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: Well, when I was when I was, when I was
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: a kid, I used to eat the snickers, which is
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: like snooker, but it's a and it's very similar. You are,
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: It's similar. You know, it's the same thing. You know,
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: don't tell me one more thing. Do not tell me
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: one more thing.
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: No, no public relations and that's air force based.
• 28:54
  Speaker 9: If you ever want to go out and get.
• 28:56
  Speaker 2: The Grand tour they like celebrities, just called up the
• 29:00

• 29:12
  Speaker 1: Oh all right, that would be fun, all right, all right,
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: Well I gotta go. Thank you Snooker, the great Snooker,
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: all right, go away north Las Vega. Let's go to
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: Andre in the CommonWell. This is a roller coaster. Do
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: you understand how exhilarating and sometimes terrifying these calls are.
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: Let's go now to Andre in the CommonWell. Hello, andre.
• 29:33
  Speaker 10: Ben, it's good to be with you this evening morning,
• 29:37
  Speaker 10: whatever you want to call it. Willis is gonna be
• 29:41
  Speaker 10: a little bit quiet right now, as you know, we're
• 29:44
  Speaker 10: shifting seasons here, getting to the end of the summer.
• 29:46
  Speaker 10: But he'll certainly be involved in and turning up as
• 29:49
  Speaker 10: we prepare for the next Mallet Palooza. He's going to
• 29:53
  Speaker 10: be working or working on our acts feverishly to get
• 29:57
  Speaker 10: close to the Jayscoop.
• 29:58
  Speaker 2: The reigning champion.
• 30:00
  Speaker 10: But you were noting Indianapolis cults. They're not champions of anything.
• 30:04
  Speaker 10: Never mind their decision in terms of Anthony Richardson and
• 30:08
  Speaker 10: whether they are going to be able to move off
• 30:10
  Speaker 10: of him, I e. The San Francisco forty nine ers
• 30:13
  Speaker 10: and how they made short work of Trey Lance. I
• 30:17
  Speaker 10: don't see it happening this season. I do see it
• 30:20
  Speaker 10: happening eventually if you can't beat out Danny Dimes, an
• 30:24
  Speaker 10: individual who was supposed to be the engine for the
• 30:27
  Speaker 10: New York Giants. Remember that mister Dave Oon and company
• 30:30
  Speaker 10: didn't want to.
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: Know they drafted. As you know, Andre So is a man,
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: a man of the world. You know, the Giants drafted
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: in large part Daniel Jones because he did cosplay pretending
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: to be Eli Manning. That's why he was drafted by
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: the Giants.
• 30:46
  Speaker 10: Yeah, he was an Eli impersonator. Never mind. You know,
• 30:48
  Speaker 10: there's a big difference between playing football at Duke and
• 30:51
  Speaker 10: winning a couple of games for the Blue Devils, who
• 30:53
  Speaker 10: are clearly a basketball school and Eli down there and
• 30:57
  Speaker 10: the SEC for old mis doing what he did. So
• 30:59
  Speaker 10: how drafted that high? Who knows? You know some of
• 31:02
  Speaker 10: the geniuses, uh do this?
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: That Dave? I think that might have been Dave Gettleman.
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: Was that a Dave Gettleman pick? Was he the GM there?
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: I think it might have been a Dave Gettleman pick.
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: I don't know. I have to check. They've changed gms
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: a lot there with the Giants because they're bad, and
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: bad teams changed yams, that's what happens.
• 31:16
  Speaker 10: So yeah, they were going to change gams this year
• 31:17
  Speaker 10: after they follow up finishing the bottom of the NFC
• 31:20
  Speaker 10: uh East, you know with the with the Eagles and
• 31:23
  Speaker 10: the Redskins. You know in the Dallas Cowboys. Who knows
• 31:25
  Speaker 10: what the heck they're gonna do? You know, I like
• 31:27
  Speaker 10: the Micah talk, you know, the fairy tales him going
• 31:30
  Speaker 10: to Green Bay. Not even Jerry would be would be
• 31:33
  Speaker 10: have the goal to send Micah not only just to
• 31:36
  Speaker 10: another contender in the in the same conference, but a
• 31:38
  Speaker 10: team that content consistently goes down to the Dallas and
• 31:42
  Speaker 10: steals their hopes and dreams. So that's a little bit
• 31:44
  Speaker 10: of leverage, don't see it happening with with with Micah
• 31:47
  Speaker 10: and green Bay. But Ben the situation with the coach.
• 31:50
  Speaker 10: I mean, at a certain point in time, you do
• 31:52
  Speaker 10: need to be the adult in the room and just recognize, listen,
• 31:56
  Speaker 10: you drank the kool aid. You did what you should
• 31:57
  Speaker 10: have done. Everybody said Anthony Richards Sain's the free athlete,
• 32:00
  Speaker 10: you know, and he can, you know, off the charts
• 32:02
  Speaker 10: in terms of athleticism, so on and forth, but there
• 32:04
  Speaker 10: were serious question marks about his ability to play the quarterback.
• 32:07
  Speaker 10: Everybody knew it, okay, but they were the genius at
• 32:09
  Speaker 10: that particular point in time. And you know, you just
• 32:11
  Speaker 10: have to take a step back, right the forty nine
• 32:13
  Speaker 10: ers for whatever you want to say about Kyle Shanahan
• 32:16

  Speaker 10: Peyton Manning, you know, in the Success and all the

• 32:39
  Speaker 10: this Anthony Richardson. He's not the guy every you know
• 32:41
  Speaker 10: it's over, but it does this unfortunate type of thing,
• 32:44
  Speaker 10: right when when it ends like this before it's actually ended,

  Speaker 1: got a headache, you know what I'm saying. It's no
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: disrespect to Willis, because there are still people that claim

  Speaker 1: Willis is not real. We had a lovely lady call

  Speaker 1: of Willis. You posted photos Andre of that nice looking
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: mutt there Willis. So I've seen the dog. But other

  Speaker 1: the Kansas City Chiefs. Now the fall out. And I'm
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: going to tell you a little more about this later
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: because there's still some some post mortem on the big
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: engagement news of the week. But there's a there's a
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: story out that they're they're calling the Taylor Swift Effect.
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: They're claiming one of the tabloids is claiming that the
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: franchise value of the Kansas City Chiefs since Taylor Swift's
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: arrival on the scene has gone up by how much
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: They're claiming that the value of the Chiefs has gone
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: up because of Taylor Swift, the Taylor Swift Effect, by
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: two point two billion. Just now, A man, I come on.
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: They claim the franchise went from having a fan base
• 35:30
  Speaker 1: that was mostly split fifty to fifty between men and women.
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: I don't I don't think that's right either. They now
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: claim that because of Taylor Swift, fifty seven percent female supporters,
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: which is unprecedented in the history of the NFL. I
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: also don't believe that. Here's why that of the fifty
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: seven percent, how many of those women are actually watching
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: Chiefs games and engaged in the Chiefs And how many
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: of those women are only paying attention to stories about
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: Travis Kelcey.
• 35:58
  Speaker 4: You know what I mean.
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: I'm saying, come on now, and to give her full credit.
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: You know, he said, well, Travis Kelsey has sold all
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: these jerseys, and you know, the NFL's gained a billion
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: dollars in additional lat advertising revenue. You're giving everything the
• 36:13
  Speaker 1: NFL's done, and you're crediting it to Taylor Listen is
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: clearly she's at it in by she's very popular. But
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: I'm not buying that.
• 36:22
  Speaker 3: I know.
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: Oh, you just just being a hater. Bad, No, I'm not.
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: I don't buye. The Taylor Swift alone is the reason
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: the franchise value of the Chiefs has gone up. Every
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: team's franchise value has gone up all right. Time out

  Speaker 3: We'll do a couple of answers to get the mallard

  Speaker 3: to a third degree. We have Air Jordan guests by

  Speaker 3: Alf the Alien Opiner, Alan Parsons from Bobby in Florida,

  Speaker 3: Dennis Oil, Can Boyd from Andy and Lion o' lakes,

  Speaker 3: And I think the line is up.
• 38:38
  Speaker 2: Let me switch over here.
• 38:39
  Speaker 1: Hold on, there you go. Let's switch over. Look at
• 38:42
  Speaker 1: that unbelievable amazing The line is back there. It is
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: all right. Do you have an answer the rain?
• 38:49
  Speaker 2: No?
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: No, no answer. I was gonna say, giz mother gremlin
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: Ben No, No, that's it's somebody named Mickey Weston. I
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: don't even from the Orioles in nineteen eighty nine. Nineteen
• 39:02
  Speaker 1: eighty nine all right, let's get to it. Here we
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: go blah blah blah blah blah blah Blahler how about
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: that to the third degree?
• 39:09
  Speaker 4: This is one big event.
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: Gets grilled crubl it.
• 39:14
  Speaker 11: It was reported on Tuesday that the Commanders have the
• 39:16
  Speaker 11: oldest fifty three player roster in the NFL, while the
• 39:20
  Speaker 11: Green Bay Packers have the youngest. Now, with both teams
• 39:23
  Speaker 11: featuring young up and coming quarterbacks, does this report prove
• 39:26
  Speaker 11: that the Packers are actually in a better spot right
• 39:28
  Speaker 11: now than the Commander.
• 39:29
  Speaker 1: Now, the numbers are skewed. I'll tell you why, Coop.
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: They've got Bobby Wagner, who's really old, Von Miller, your
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: guy who's even older, and Zach Ertz. So it skews
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: the whole, the whole roster math on that. I don't
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: put too much stock in the you know, the age
• 39:44
  Speaker 1: game and all that. That's why they have three guys
• 39:47
  Speaker 1: that are skewing the numbers. And so I don't think
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: the problem with the Packers is Jordan Love. That's the issue. Next.
• 39:53
  Speaker 11: So the Houston Astros are only one and a half
• 39:55
  Speaker 11: games ahead of the Seattle Mariners in the Al West,
• 39:58
  Speaker 11: but did also just get back three time All Star
• 40:00
  Speaker 11: Jordan Alvarez, Ben, do you think the Astros will hold
• 40:03
  Speaker 11: off the Mariners?
• 40:04
  Speaker 1: No, America needs Cal Roley, the big Dumper, to put
• 40:08
  Speaker 1: a big dump on the Astros. Everyone's pulling for the
• 40:11
  Speaker 1: team from the team from Seattle. So yes.
• 40:14
  Speaker 11: Next, Freddie Freeman was interviewed and asked about being the
• 40:17
  Speaker 11: only three hundred hitter in the National League. He said,
• 40:19
  Speaker 11: his goals to hit three hundred every season, but it's
• 40:21
  Speaker 11: getting harder and harder because pitching is too good.
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: Is that what's going on? Ben boo Hooo, listen, hitter's
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: supposed to get better too. That's an excuse. I don't
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: want to hear it. I want I need a second
