- 0:05Speaker 1: Halloween and Trick or treat? Well here at hour number two,
- 0:09Speaker 1: can you explain to Charles Barkley and Troy Aikman why
- 0:13Speaker 1: there is this obsession with the cowboys on TV? Both
- 0:16Speaker 1: of them taking some shots and it's kind of obvious
- 0:19Speaker 1: why the cowboys are there. I think these guys know it,
- 0:22Speaker 1: but I'll just remind them. Also, what is your takeaway
- 0:24Speaker 1: from Lions wide receiver Jamison Williams claiming despite having terrible numbers,
- 0:30Speaker 1: he's just been horrific since he signed his contract. He's
- 0:32Speaker 1: not frustrated after being an afterthought in the Detroit offense. Also,
- 0:36Speaker 1: not one, not two, but three Bengals defensive players have
- 0:39Speaker 1: requested to be released or traded. What does that tell you?
- 0:44Speaker 1: We'll go there as well? Right now here, it is

- 2:56Speaker 1: expresspros dot com to find a location near you. That's
- 3:01Speaker 1: w w W dot expresspros dot com. So we're still
- 3:07Speaker 1: yapping about that Thursday night NFL game as it goes
- 3:11Speaker 1: to the team from Maryland, a domination situation. We'll circle
- 3:15Speaker 1: back to that in a little bit. But our lead
- 3:17Speaker 1: this hour indirectly now indirectly, it's from Jerry's World. So
- 3:23Speaker 1: it's it's from Jerry's World now. Charles Barkley went on
- 3:26Speaker 1: a rant and by that inside the NBA, is that
- 3:31Speaker 1: not the greatest thing that's been on ESPN since the
- 3:34Speaker 1: before Sports Center went woke, you know, back in the
- 3:36Speaker 1: old days. It's just great, and it's it's because it's
- 3:40Speaker 1: not an ESPN show. It's they're just paying for the show.
- 3:42Speaker 1: It's not their show, They're just paying for it anyway.
- 3:45Speaker 1: Charles Barkley, I took a lighthearted jab at the obsession
- 3:51Speaker 1: of ESPN with the Dallas Cowboys. Of course, it's not
- 3:55Speaker 1: just ESPN. Everyone is obsessed with the Dallas Cowboys. Now, Troykman,
- 4:00Speaker 1: who knows a thing or two about the Dallas Cowboys.
- 4:03Speaker 1: I hear he played for them before I was alive.
- 4:05Speaker 1: Of course, So Aikman chimed in, wink wink, nod, nod.
- 4:08Speaker 1: He chimed in on this, and he agreed with sir Charles,
- 4:12Speaker 1: so what Yeah. So I don't know if you saw
- 4:14Speaker 1: this or not. Maybe not. Aikman gave the quote which
- 4:17Speaker 1: is the money quote When asked about Charles Barkley's rant,
- 4:21Speaker 1: he said, quote, he meaning Barkley. He is right about
- 4:24Speaker 1: one thing. I think there is a contractual obligation for
- 4:30Speaker 1: every network, everyone to talk about the Dallas Cowboys. Aikman said,
- 4:36Speaker 1: close quote. All right, so that is that's a pretty
- 4:38Speaker 1: good jumping off point. Let us discuss now the question
- 4:42Speaker 1: realizing we're not part of the mainstream. We are not
- 4:44Speaker 1: part of the mainstream. We're on overnight. There's two types
- 4:46Speaker 1: of talk radio. There's six am to six pm. That's
- 4:48Speaker 1: prime time. Everything else leftovers, not primetime. We're not part
- 4:52Speaker 1: of the mainstream, So understand that going in. But I
- 4:55Speaker 1: have dabbled a couple of times. They've allowed me to
- 4:59Speaker 1: cross the rub of and go to the primetime stuff,
- 5:02Speaker 1: and so I know a little bit how they make
- 5:04Speaker 1: the sausage and all that. So the question, can you
- 5:08Speaker 1: explain to Charles Barkley and Troy Aikman why there is
- 5:13Speaker 1: an obsession with the Dallas Cowboys on television? So my
- 5:18Speaker 1: observation on this, I've got Taylor Swift, Foghorn, Leghorn, and
- 5:25Speaker 1: hip hop, and I promise you, hand to God, never
- 5:30Speaker 1: before has there been a Mallard monologue or a radio
- 5:33Speaker 1: monologue combining Taylor Swift, Foghorn, Leghorn, and hip hop. It
- 5:37Speaker 1: has never happened before. And if it has happened, I'll
- 5:39Speaker 1: pay you ten thousand dollars if you can find me
- 5:41Speaker 1: somebody that did that. And it's not Ai and all that.
- 5:44Speaker 1: So anyway, here we go, Here we go. This is
- 5:46Speaker 1: very important. So we're gonna put all these things together
- 5:49Speaker 1: and we are going to make the most delicious Halloween
- 5:54Speaker 1: candy of them all. The Buttercup, the Peanut Buttercup by
- 5:59Speaker 1: far the top Halloween Kenny so number one. Okay, okay,
- 6:10Speaker 1: So you know how we all need oxygen. We're told
- 6:15Speaker 1: otherwise it's lights out, the game's overright, that's it, So
- 6:21Speaker 1: we need oxygen. The Cowboys are the oxygen if you're
- 6:27Speaker 1: at a network doing television, they are. If you take
- 6:31Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys away, people are going to suffocate. And
- 6:34Speaker 1: do you really want people to suffocate? I'm telling you
- 6:36Speaker 1: it's oxygen. It's the same reason. You know, I don't
- 6:39Speaker 1: we don't think that's the third round, my man. Don't
- 6:40Speaker 1: talk about politics, but it's the same things like when
- 6:43Speaker 1: when CNN or those those other numbers cover Donald Trump
- 6:47Speaker 1: for the sports world. The Cowboys are like President Trump,
- 6:51Speaker 1: like people either love him or they hate him, but
- 6:54Speaker 1: either way they pay attention to them.
- 6:55Speaker 3: Right.
- 6:56Speaker 1: The Cowboys are the NFL's clickbait factory. And they don't
- 7:00Speaker 1: even have to be good because they really haven't been
- 7:02Speaker 1: all that good for a long time. They have gone
- 7:07Speaker 1: to the NFC title game in like thirty years or
- 7:10Speaker 1: something along those lines. So all the Cowboys have to
- 7:13Speaker 1: do when you scrub everything away, now, I scrub everything.
- 7:17Speaker 1: Why all they have to do is just exist. That's it.
- 7:20Speaker 1: That's it. They are the Walmart of football. They're open
- 7:23Speaker 1: twenty four hours and if it's a slow day, give
- 7:26Speaker 1: me a cowboy story. Everywhere you look, and it's filled,
- 7:31Speaker 1: fill to the brim, fill to the brim with people
- 7:35Speaker 1: that you either despise or secretly shop with. Right, it's broadcasting,
- 7:40Speaker 1: as we like to say, it's not narrow casting. And
- 7:43Speaker 1: the networks are not chasing moral victories. They're not looking
- 7:48Speaker 1: to be fair. They don't want to be fair. Right,
- 7:50Speaker 1: they're not in the fair business. They're in the advertising business.
- 7:54Speaker 1: And in the advertising business, I go back to what
- 7:56Speaker 1: I said, it's broadcasting. You need a broad audience in
- 8:00Speaker 1: order to get you what It's kind of simple. If
- 8:01Speaker 1: you ever took a media class in school, or if
- 8:02Speaker 1: you studied it all online, you're gonna have to go
- 8:04Speaker 1: to school. Now you can do stuff online. You're trying
- 8:06Speaker 1: to get a broad audience, right, you're chasing eyeballs. The cowboys.
- 8:11Speaker 1: They move numbers like Taylor Swift on ticket Master. Right,
- 8:15Speaker 1: imagine Ticketmasters saying we shouldn't focus too much on Taylor's swift. Well,
- 8:20Speaker 1: why not she sells all the super tickets Jerry. And
- 8:23Speaker 1: of course the secret is Jerry Jones. The secret is
- 8:26Speaker 1: Jerry Jones. Jerry Jones is Flave of Flave, right, He's
- 8:30Speaker 1: Don King, He's p. T. Barnum, He's Dana White, He's
- 8:34Speaker 1: Vince mcmah and all those cats rolled into one leathery
- 8:39Speaker 1: oil tycoon package. He wants you to hate him because
- 8:44Speaker 1: he knows that hate is good for business. It is.
- 8:48Speaker 1: And you know, those of us that have been in
- 8:50Speaker 1: radio long time, we know the legendary tales. They call
- 8:54Speaker 1: it the Stern effect. Before Stern went woke and before
- 8:57Speaker 1: back when he had his fastball, you couldn't just turn
- 8:59Speaker 1: them off. But people really really hated Stern. But they
- 9:03Speaker 1: listen longer. And Jerry knows people hate Jerry Jones. People
- 9:06Speaker 1: get annoyed by Jerry Jones, but they pay more attention
- 9:09Speaker 1: than those that actually like Jerry Jones, right, And it's
- 9:12Speaker 1: just because they want to have the opportunity to be
- 9:14Speaker 1: upset by something that he does. Meanwhile, like if you
- 9:17Speaker 1: were to be perfectly fair and do a network sports show,
- 9:21Speaker 1: you'd have to talk about Jacksonville, right, Jacksonville. The Jaguars
- 9:25Speaker 1: could win twelve games. Now I'm ripped from time to
- 9:28Speaker 1: time because I will actually mention them, and I'll mention
- 9:31Speaker 1: some of the bad teams. People, what are you doing?
- 9:33Speaker 1: What you mentioned that team? They're not for good. I
- 9:34Speaker 1: don't want to hear about that team. The Jaguars could
- 9:36Speaker 1: win twelve games, they could have the greatest offense in
- 9:39Speaker 1: the world and packed house the whole thing, and nobody
- 9:42Speaker 1: outside of Douvall County would even notice. It's the same
- 9:47Speaker 1: reason that you very rarely hear Charles Barkley talk about
- 9:51Speaker 1: the Charlotte Hornets or the Sacramento Kings. It's not good, no,
- 9:55Speaker 1: and Barkley will rip the fact they talk about the Lakers.
- 9:57Speaker 1: But that's the NBA's version the Cowboys, right, the Lakers,
- 10:01Speaker 1: they don't win that much, they haven't won since Kobe, right,
- 10:04Speaker 1: but yet they still get talked about a lot. The
- 10:06Speaker 1: Cowboys could go eight to nine every year or seven
- 10:09Speaker 1: to ten, and we're gonna get a week long symposium, Okay,
- 10:15Speaker 1: full freaking week symposium on what's wrong with blank whether
- 10:21Speaker 1: it's the coach, the quarterback, you know, Dak whoever. But
- 10:25Speaker 1: that's the point, right, They're not a football team. They're
- 10:29Speaker 1: a soap opera. That's what they are, right, It's a
- 10:30Speaker 1: daily soap opera. And the whole America's team thing has
- 10:34Speaker 1: played out. That's from the seventies or whatever. They're America's
- 10:37Speaker 1: ratings machine. They are, And the moment that that no
- 10:42Speaker 1: longer applies, I promise you that the rules will change
- 10:47Speaker 1: and they'll move on to something else. They will all
- 10:50Speaker 1: right now, Pace two, one of those teams that does
- 10:52Speaker 1: not have a huge national reach is in Detroit. There's
- 10:56Speaker 1: an interesting story here the Lions offensive coordinator John Morton.
- 11:02Speaker 1: John Morton has announced that he has failed. He has
- 11:06Speaker 1: failed one of his players. He has apparently failed someone named
- 11:09Speaker 1: Jamison Williams. He signed a relatively big contract not that
- 11:14Speaker 1: long ago, and in terms of getting the player of
- 11:17Speaker 1: the ball, hasn't done it enough. So Morton met with
- 11:22Speaker 1: Jamison Williams in the bye week to try to figure
- 11:25Speaker 1: out why they can't get him the ball, why he
- 11:29Speaker 1: is not involved in the offense at all. So, when
- 11:31Speaker 1: asked about the supporting actor status that the second second
- 11:37Speaker 1: guy in lastly really a third third wheel at this point.
- 11:40Speaker 1: So Lion's wide receiver Jamison Williams was asked about that
- 11:44Speaker 1: he said, though shockingly, he's not frustrated. He says he's not.
- 11:49Speaker 1: He said, when asked about I said, I'm not frustrated.
- 11:51Speaker 1: I'm me, I'm me. He said, okay, So that is
- 11:55Speaker 1: the money quote. That is the money quote. The question
- 11:58Speaker 1: what is your takeaway from the aforementioned Lions wide receiver
- 12:03Speaker 1: Jamison Williams not being frustrated with being an afterthought? So
- 12:08Speaker 1: it is a red flag, is what it is. Like
- 12:11Speaker 1: whiteouts have to go. If you're a star wide out
- 12:15Speaker 1: or a good white out, you have to go full
- 12:17Speaker 1: Johnny Cash and walk that line. You have to walk
- 12:21Speaker 1: the line. Now, you walk the line between being assertive
- 12:25Speaker 1: like the drunk guys that called Last Hour, and also disruptive,
- 12:29Speaker 1: much like the drunk guys that called Last Hour, knowing
- 12:32Speaker 1: that silence is not golden. Silence means starvation if you're
- 12:39Speaker 1: not demanding the ball, famous give me the damn ball.
- 12:43Speaker 1: The books have been written like that, but Williams is
- 12:45Speaker 1: not wired that way. It appears that the Lions would
- 12:49Speaker 1: like him to go full Foghorn Leghorn and go Kaka
- 12:52Speaker 1: doodle doo, and he's not doing that. Instead of being
- 12:54Speaker 1: an assertive rooster, he says I'm fine, I'm not frustrated. Yeah,
- 12:59Speaker 1: you're the guy was seventeen catches heading into Halloween weekend,
- 13:04Speaker 1: seventeen catches through seven games and sixty seven million guaranteed. Congratulations,
- 13:11Speaker 1: everything is great. So Jamison Williams is a glorified decoy.
- 13:16Speaker 1: Couldn't you find someone to pay sixty seven million dollars
- 13:19Speaker 1: to to not be a decoy, or certainly pay them
- 13:22Speaker 1: less to be a decoy? So police, police, Now he's
- 13:27Speaker 1: opening up nothing. Now, this is that I got paid.
- 13:30Speaker 1: I don't care. Vibe. We all know the vibe. I
- 13:33Speaker 1: got mine. I got mine, bro like that loser Blake Snell.
- 13:38Speaker 1: I did a monologue yes about how pathetic Blake snow was,
- 13:41Speaker 1: and unfortunately some other people picked up on it and
- 13:44Speaker 1: got a little bit of traction. People were shocked at
- 13:46Speaker 1: how dumb Blake snell sounds when he said that the
- 13:49Speaker 1: fact that he gave up ten runs in the World
- 13:51Speaker 1: Series was based on bad luck. Just great. Anyway, back
- 13:56Speaker 1: to the monologue. So the Lions gave this guy, Jamison Williams,
- 14:01Speaker 1: the bag. What's in the back? They gave him the
- 14:03Speaker 1: bag and now he's essentially a spectator with a helmet.
- 14:09Speaker 1: Terrible ROI terrible ROI, return on investment horrific on that
- 14:14Speaker 1: and the Lions have built that offense around who I'm
- 14:17Speaker 1: on Ross and Brown, Jamiir Gibbs and Sam Laporta. Not
- 14:22Speaker 1: this guy. Not this guy. He is an accessory. He's
- 14:25Speaker 1: an ad on. It's kind of like when you buy
- 14:26Speaker 1: a car and they try to upsell you and say, well,
- 14:30Speaker 1: do you need the net in the back of the car. Well, no,
- 14:32Speaker 1: I don't need the net in the back of Well
- 14:33Speaker 1: you kind of do, and it's it's got the logo
- 14:35Speaker 1: of the car on it, but I don't really need it.
- 14:37Speaker 1: But no, yeah you can have it. How much does
- 14:39Speaker 1: it cost? Don't what's working in You'll pay it off
- 14:42Speaker 1: If you costs seven thousand dollars for the net? Okay, fine,
- 14:45Speaker 1: why not. I'll take the net. But anyway, listen the
- 14:48Speaker 1: Lions and you look at it like his production and
- 14:52Speaker 1: his attitude when I see I don't. I'm not frustrated.
- 14:56Speaker 1: I'm fine, you know, I'm me. It's nothing beats a
- 15:00Speaker 1: jet to holiday, right, It's that Lion like he's on holiday.
- 15:04Speaker 1: Jamison already already got his money. You know, he's paid
- 15:08Speaker 1: guaranteed money. He's won the lottery and he's good. And
- 15:12Speaker 1: the Lions got played all right, final point and we
- 15:15Speaker 1: have a humdinger of a story. Humdinger of a story.
- 15:19Speaker 1: We go to northern Kentucky just to annoy our friends
- 15:22Speaker 1: in Cincinnati, and they said, well, no, Cincinnati is You've
- 15:25Speaker 1: got to cross the water there, and there's it's it's
- 15:27Speaker 1: in a it's in Ohio, and Kentucky is in a
- 15:31Speaker 1: different place. Okay, So when I fly into Cincinnati, what
- 15:35Speaker 1: airport do I Where do I land?
- 15:36Speaker 3: Oh?
- 15:36Speaker 1: That's right, Kentucky. Okay. Anyway, Bengals defensive tackle someone named
- 15:40Speaker 1: McKinley Jackson, and then West, your last name is Jackson
- 15:44Speaker 1: or you went to high school with this guy. You
- 15:45Speaker 1: have no idea who he is. But McKinley Jackson has
- 15:48Speaker 1: requested a trade. Now, normally, if a no name player
- 15:53Speaker 1: says I want a trade, we don't bring it up.
- 15:55Speaker 1: We don't know who the player is. Who cares doesn't
- 15:57Speaker 1: matter at us. That story would not see the lie
- 15:59Speaker 1: to day. It's it's a little different here. And here's why.
- 16:02Speaker 1: Because Jackson, this guy McKinley Jackson, who's no one other
- 16:07Speaker 1: than friends and family know who he is, Jackson is
- 16:09Speaker 1: the third number three. He's the third defensive player in
- 16:16Speaker 1: recent weeks to request a relocation number three. So the question,
- 16:21Speaker 1: You've got three Bengals defensive players who have asked out
- 16:26Speaker 1: who said I would like to go asta La Vista
- 16:28Speaker 1: and get the hell out of here. They want to
- 16:29Speaker 1: either be traded or released. So what does that tell you?
- 16:35Speaker 1: What does that indicate? So it is a obviously a
- 16:37Speaker 1: mass evacuation on one side of the ball. Now tells
- 16:41Speaker 1: me after a minutes long Mallard deliberation, that the three
- 16:46Speaker 1: Bengal defensive players who are leading such a charmed life
- 16:50Speaker 1: they would like to relocate to some other member of
- 16:52Speaker 1: the football cartel. They're enjoying some nice hip hop music
- 16:57Speaker 1: on the radio and now they want to go hip
- 17:00Speaker 1: any hop out of Cincinnati. Coming apart at the seams,
- 17:04Speaker 1: McKinley Jackson is not a star. He's not a household name.
- 17:08Speaker 1: Yet he's seeking greener pastures and he's been a healthy
- 17:12Speaker 1: scratch for six of the eight games the Bengals of play.
- 17:16Speaker 1: He's what we call him talk radio roster spam is
- 17:20Speaker 1: what he is. You scroll past him on the depth chart.
- 17:23Speaker 1: He's like an expired coupon, you don't pay any attention
- 17:25Speaker 1: to it. The dates expired. Nevertheless, when the guys at
- 17:29Speaker 1: the bottom of your roster are begging I must leave,
- 17:35Speaker 1: what does that tell you? What does that tell you?
- 17:38Speaker 1: It tells you there's an underlying condition. There is and
- 17:42Speaker 1: we're talking about a bad locker room. Whether it's the
- 17:46Speaker 1: bad locker room juju or the morale is toxic? And
- 17:50Speaker 1: is that because the coaches? Is that because of the
- 17:52Speaker 1: players in there that are not controlling things. You've got
- 17:55Speaker 1: players who are sprinting to the exit like there's a
- 18:01Speaker 1: fire in the film room. At the Bengals facility, almost
- 18:04Speaker 1: twelve percent of the defensive roster wants out. That is
- 18:08Speaker 1: not an accident. That is a team wide allergy of accountability.
- 18:14Speaker 1: And it's they've fallen to dead last and total defense.
- 18:18Speaker 1: Now it was the Ravens for a long time, Now
- 18:21Speaker 1: it's the Bengals. The Cowboys were dead last for a
- 18:25Speaker 1: brief period as well. But the Bengals are worse than
- 18:27Speaker 1: the NFL defensively. They are the chunky Soup defense. They
- 18:31Speaker 1: give up chunk plays Campbell's Chunky Soup. They give up
- 18:34Speaker 1: big chunk plays and big steaming games. And there's no
- 18:37Speaker 1: nutritional value, no nutritional value. And if you update now
- 18:41Speaker 1: the rhythmic chanting, who day, who day? Whoday? Think they're
- 18:45Speaker 1: gonna stay with the Bengals. And will the last person
- 18:48Speaker 1: leaving Cincinnati it's gonna be either just Josh, either just
- 18:51Speaker 1: Josh or justin in Cincinnati. Will the last person leaving
- 18:55Speaker 1: Cincinnati turn out the last the parties over? Please? Now,
- 19:00Speaker 1: it is the Mallard doctrine. And you know because you're
- 19:03Speaker 1: a good minion and a member of the Mallard militia.
- 19:06Speaker 1: The Mallard doctrine. You cannot coach effort, you cannot fake buying.
- 19:11Speaker 1: You can't do it, cannot do it. Once that belief
- 19:14Speaker 1: of operates, all that's left is finger pointing, pointing the finger.
- 19:19Speaker 1: That's all that's left. Point the finger and slamming the door.
- 19:24Speaker 1: If you don't believe me, look at the Miami Dolphins
- 19:25Speaker 1: right now. They're going through the same stuff. In the
- 19:28Speaker 1: case of Cincinnati. It's what I call bungal syndrome. Their
- 19:31Speaker 1: inner bungle is coming out right now. The disease has returned.
- 19:35Speaker 1: The disease has returned. Symptoms include bad tackling, eye rolling, sudden,
- 19:41Speaker 1: unexpected trade request all part of it, part of Bungal syndrome.
- 19:46Speaker 1: McKinley Jackson, who uses our jumping off point on this
- 19:49Speaker 1: mall monologue, he is not the problem. He is the
- 19:53Speaker 1: symptom of the problem. And the Bengals defense has gone
- 19:56Speaker 1: from a pack of Bengal tigers to a litter of housecats.
- 20:02Speaker 1: Nice house cats. Here, kitty kitty, here, kitty kitty, nice
- 20:06Speaker 1: house cat, meowing, meow, meowing for freedom. It is the

- 23:14Speaker 1: I'm trying to come up with a bit. I was
- 23:15Speaker 1: playing around with it when I was coming in the studio.
- 23:17Speaker 1: I was like, I remember Art Bell. I'm sure they're
- 23:20Speaker 1: doing it over at Coast to Coast. They would do
- 23:22Speaker 1: ghost to ghost on Halloween. Ghost to ghost and all that.
- 23:27Speaker 1: So what would the sports radio equivalent be of that? Like,
- 23:30Speaker 1: if we were to not rip that off but borrow it,
- 23:34Speaker 1: what would it be? What would it be? Let's go
- 23:37Speaker 1: to the phones. Let's say hello to Dominican Mike. Who's
- 23:42Speaker 1: up next on this Halloween? Hello, Dominican Mike.
- 23:46Speaker 3: Good evening, Ben, Good evening, Ben. I got to have
- 23:50Speaker 3: the honor to say that I'm your first non drunk
- 23:53Speaker 3: caller of today.
- 23:54Speaker 1: Right, are we sure about that? I don't know. I
- 23:56Speaker 1: don't know positive right, I'm pretty.
- 24:01Speaker 2: Bothered with it.
- 24:01Speaker 3: But and uh, I also heard on one of your
- 24:03Speaker 3: take you mentioned when was the last time you saw
- 24:06Speaker 3: a twenty four hour Walmart.
- 24:10Speaker 1: Before the pandemic? Yeah?
- 24:12Speaker 3: Exactly exactly. They are not around anymore, you know.
- 24:16Speaker 1: Yeah? That shocks Yeah, we should, we should, we should
- 24:18Speaker 1: complain about that. Can we get back to having twenty
- 24:21Speaker 1: four hour stores? Can we get back to that?
- 24:23Speaker 3: Absolutely? Absolutely? I want to like to. I just got
- 24:26Speaker 3: back from the gym. I'm working. I wanted to do
- 24:28Speaker 3: some shopping, but you mentioned that, and that's why I
- 24:30Speaker 3: brought my attention. I'm like, you gotta be kidding me.
- 24:32Speaker 3: There's nowhere that I can go shopping right now twenty
- 24:35Speaker 3: four hours, you know, yeah.
- 24:36Speaker 1: Yeah, and like that's like New York. I don't know
- 24:39Speaker 1: if you've been New York recently, but you go to Manhattan,
- 24:41Speaker 1: my brother, I go visit my brother. I was like, Oh,
- 24:42Speaker 1: New York, the city that never sleeps. That's bull crap.
- 24:45Speaker 1: They sleep the store, you know, the restaurants close at
- 24:48Speaker 1: nine o'clock, and maybe you can get a turkey sandwich
- 24:50Speaker 1: at a bodega, but even those are closed now and
- 24:53Speaker 1: they're all weed shops. So I screwed shop.
- 24:55Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, Hey Ben you you you tell
- 25:00Speaker 3: story from time to time about someone told you that
- 25:02Speaker 3: they were fans of sports or a team and they
- 25:05Speaker 3: went a whole generation without winning or something like that
- 25:08Speaker 3: and they quit. I don't know, they quit sports or
- 25:11Speaker 3: they quit the team. Not correct that it's sounds familiar.
- 25:14Speaker 1: Well. Yeah. The most famous we had back in the
- 25:17Speaker 1: early days when I was doing the show on the weekends.
- 25:19Speaker 1: We had a guy named jahadis John from Michigan. And
- 25:23Speaker 1: this is one of the craziest stories. This guy was
- 25:25Speaker 1: the biggest fan I loved the show, really got it.
- 25:29Speaker 1: One of the early guys that was a fan of
- 25:31Speaker 1: the show. And he had a pack. He determined if
- 25:35Speaker 1: he was a fan of the Lions, and he was
- 25:38Speaker 1: a fan. I think he liked the Cubs, if I
- 25:41Speaker 1: remember correctly, And he said if his teams didn't win
- 25:44Speaker 1: a championship by the time he turned forty, he was
- 25:46Speaker 1: never going to watch sports again. And people say that
- 25:50Speaker 1: and it's bull crap and they lie. He didn't. He's done,
- 25:54Speaker 1: he left, and I've never I've not heard from him
- 25:56Speaker 1: since he turned forty, and it's been years, so it's
- 25:58Speaker 1: probably probably fifty.
- 26:01Speaker 3: Because I can tell you I've been I grew up
- 26:03Speaker 3: in Miami and I've been a Dolphins fan. The last
- 26:05Speaker 3: time the Dolphins won a playoff game, I was technically
- 26:08Speaker 3: a teenager. And now I can now get my full
- 26:14Speaker 3: patient from work for retirement. That's how long it's been.
- 26:17Speaker 1: Yeah, No, it's it's crazy. And they they were so
- 26:20Speaker 1: good every year when I was a kid, the Dolphins
- 26:23Speaker 1: had great teams. They were always on TV. They had,
- 26:26Speaker 1: you know, stories of Don Shula and Dan Marino even
- 26:29Speaker 1: guys before that obviously, and it's crazy.
- 26:32Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, So.
- 26:33Speaker 3: I'm kind up to that stage after last year. I
- 26:35Speaker 3: watched the Island Games, but like the Sunday games, I
- 26:39Speaker 3: put the red zone and I just stand around and
- 26:42Speaker 3: I don't watch anymore because it's not worth it. It's
- 26:44Speaker 3: not worth it, you know.
- 26:45Speaker 1: No, No, I hear you. If the if you go
- 26:48Speaker 1: to a restaurant and you love the restaurant, they changed
- 26:50Speaker 1: the menu and the food's not that good, why are
- 26:52Speaker 1: you going to keep buying the food at the restaurant.
- 26:54Speaker 1: There's no point to it.
- 26:54Speaker 3: Right, absolutely, And Ben about the World Series, I have
- 27:01Speaker 3: unpopular tache and you're gonna hate business take but you
- 27:03Speaker 3: can mark my words. Goalst Runner is coming to the
- 27:06Speaker 3: playoffs and all the World Series within the next two years. Guarantees.
- 27:12Speaker 1: No, no, we don't need it.
- 27:15Speaker 3: An eighteen inning game again, you can mark my works.
- 27:19Speaker 1: Man, Now, we don't need it. We do not need
- 27:22Speaker 1: a ghost You do not want a World Series decided
- 27:24Speaker 1: by a ghost runner.
- 27:25Speaker 2: You don't, I know, but but it's coming. It's coming.
- 27:28Speaker 3: They don't want games ending up at uh.
- 27:32Speaker 1: But would have what would have happened Dominican Mike, And
- 27:35Speaker 1: you know, because you're a baseball guy, is if that
- 27:37Speaker 1: game had gone one more inning that the Dodgers were
- 27:40Speaker 1: claiming they were going to go to a position player.
- 27:43Speaker 1: Uh and the Blue Jays would have had to go
- 27:45Speaker 1: to a position and you imagine a position player they
- 27:47Speaker 1: would have. I don't know how they can futs around
- 27:49Speaker 1: with the rules. You cannot have that either. You can't
- 27:51Speaker 1: have a position player pitch in a in a World
- 27:53Speaker 1: Series game to decide who's gonna win a game in
- 27:56Speaker 1: the World Series.
- 27:57Speaker 2: I know.
- 27:57Speaker 3: I always say this should be like hockey if you
- 27:59Speaker 3: have you know, hockey has like the third goalie, who
- 28:02Speaker 3: should have something like that in base on and then
- 28:04Speaker 3: have like somebody to play amateur or something like that
- 28:07Speaker 3: and be like the last sort.
- 28:09Speaker 1: Anyway, I think the I think hockey got rid of
- 28:11Speaker 1: that where they had like the high school teacher that
- 28:13Speaker 1: would be the goalie. They did for years though it
- 28:15Speaker 1: was a great story. There'd be some guy that the
- 28:17Speaker 1: guy that drove the zamboni would be the goal goaltender
- 28:20Speaker 1: for a night.
- 28:21Speaker 3: Maybe maybe they call you in, man, maybe they call
- 28:24Speaker 3: me in.
- 28:24Speaker 1: You know, I know how to throw a mean pitch.
- 28:28Speaker 1: I've thrown out the first pitch at a couple of
- 28:29Speaker 1: minor league games over the year. So I've been on
- 28:31Speaker 1: the mound in a stadium, a professional baseball stadium. I
- 28:34Speaker 1: played in Dodgers Stadium back in the day when you know,
- 28:36Speaker 1: back years ago. So that's right, that's right, all right,
- 28:40Speaker 1: thank you Tomican, Mike. Enjoy Halloween. There's a great Dominican Mic.
- 28:44Speaker 1: Let's go to Enie Meenie miney. Most go to Mike
- 28:46Speaker 1: in Tucson. What's going on, Mike and Tucson. Welcome, Hello, Mike, Mike.
- 28:52Speaker 6: I would be a Dodger fat not in La, understand,
- 28:56Speaker 6: because they couldn't hit water off the boat.
- 28:59Speaker 1: Yes, yes, yeah, But then I give you a.
- 29:02Speaker 6: Lot of credit because you bash your team. You don't
- 29:04Speaker 6: make excuses for the weather plane. I've heard so many
- 29:07Speaker 6: excuses how that people forget he as a designated hitter.
- 29:15Speaker 6: He was walked most of the night. But a lot
- 29:18Speaker 6: of excuses from Dodgers apologies. But then you rip your seat,
- 29:22Speaker 6: as you said, so you're.
- 29:24Speaker 1: The really that's right. I keep it real. I like
- 29:26Speaker 1: these other people, and I get ripped for it. People
- 29:28Speaker 1: get upset with me. They well, I thought you were
- 29:31Speaker 1: a Dodger fan. So I have to drink the blue
- 29:33Speaker 1: kool aid because I like the Dodgers. But I'm gonna
- 29:35Speaker 1: sit here and watch an inferior product in the world Series,
- 29:39Speaker 1: and these guys are gonna fux it all the way right,
- 29:41Speaker 1: all those two private planes. These guys are treated like
- 29:44Speaker 1: the freaking royal family when they go on the road.
- 29:47Speaker 1: They've been babied and coddled all year and they go
- 29:49Speaker 1: out there and they can't hit the damn ball in
- 29:51Speaker 1: the World Series. It's embarrassing.
- 29:53Speaker 6: And that's why you go out of credit. You rip
- 29:55Speaker 6: the Dodgers, and you're a diehard understands and when I
- 29:58Speaker 6: to make excuses, that's that's why.
- 30:01Speaker 1: That's right, exactly me me. And now who cares about that?
- 30:04Speaker 1: Is your wife feeling better? She was in the hospital

- 32:03Speaker 5: I told you they was going to do.
- 32:05Speaker 6: What they did.
- 32:06Speaker 5: They lost, but they came back strong.
- 32:09Speaker 1: Are you doing the I told you call? Is that
- 32:11Speaker 1: what we're doing? I told you so you just said
- 32:15Speaker 1: I told you you did the I told you? Listen
- 32:19Speaker 1: what congratulations? Okay, that's another My entire life, Vanderbilt has
- 32:25Speaker 1: been the punching bag of the the SEC or whatever.
- 32:30Speaker 6: I mean.
- 32:31Speaker 1: I know you live there, you're right there. Yeah, I
- 32:34Speaker 1: hear it.
- 32:34Speaker 3: I know.
- 32:34Speaker 5: I've been a fan of vany forever. And then now
- 32:36Speaker 5: you know we're ranked number nine in the country going
- 32:39Speaker 5: up against the manningless Texas or Texas asked you know
- 32:43Speaker 5: they've sucked all season, so you know that should be
- 32:46Speaker 5: another dove in the column. You know we're looking at
- 32:48Speaker 5: the playoffs.
- 32:49Speaker 1: I don't think. I don't think we're prepared for Vanderbilt
- 32:53Speaker 1: to make the college football playoff. I don't know that
- 32:55Speaker 1: we as a sports world are prepared for them to
- 32:58Speaker 1: be in there. They might have some kind of group
- 33:01Speaker 1: therapy or something along those lines.
- 33:02Speaker 5: Dude, being when they make the playoffs, you go hear
- 33:06Speaker 5: us all the way from Nashville, go week crazy.
- 33:09Speaker 1: I did not realize there was that big a group
- 33:12Speaker 1: of fans of Vanderbilt football. Had no idea. I did
- 33:14Speaker 1: not the silent majority who knew.
- 33:16Speaker 5: Yeah that's well, you know a lot of us like
- 33:18Speaker 5: we still wear our gear, but you know, we don't
- 33:20Speaker 5: talk a lot of trash. But this season is the
- 33:23Speaker 5: only time we talk trash. Is there in baseball season?
- 33:25Speaker 1: Yeah? Better enjoy it. You better enjoy it because this
- 33:29Speaker 1: continues that you're gonna lose your coach, You're gonna lose
- 33:32Speaker 1: a bunch of players will get money to go.
- 33:34Speaker 5: I don't see no. No, let me stop you right there,
- 33:36Speaker 5: because I don't think Clarkly is going anywhere because he
- 33:39Speaker 5: is a Nashville kid. He went to Montgomery Academy.
- 33:44Speaker 1: Let me, have you heard the story about have you
- 33:45Speaker 1: heard the story about Craig Counsel who is a Wisconsin
- 33:48Speaker 1: kid and was managing the Brewers and then the Cubs
- 33:50Speaker 1: offered more money, so he's now managing the Cubs. So Vanderbilt, Yeah,
- 33:55Speaker 1: I know, you don't know. I got to leave it there.
- 33:58Speaker 1: As you know, I do network rate a very important
- 33:59Speaker 1: I'm I'm not buy the clock for the clock, all
- 34:02Speaker 1: about the clock, and if I do not follow the clock,
- 34:05Speaker 1: then Lorena will poke me in the eye and then
- 34:08Speaker 1: Bree will kick me. So I do not in the shit.
- 34:11Speaker 1: So I do not need That's right. I do not
- 34:13Speaker 1: need that at all. So the Dolphins were booed off
- 34:15Speaker 1: the field. They had a no show performance in prime
- 34:17Speaker 1: time gutless football by the Dolphins, and Mike McDaniel was
- 34:21Speaker 1: asked his thoughts on the fans booing the team and
- 34:25Speaker 1: then leaving the stadium early. It was very embarrassing for
- 34:28Speaker 1: the Dolphins. He said, quote, yeah, it sucks. He said,
- 34:31Speaker 1: that sucks. All of that does. But I think it's
- 34:34Speaker 1: a pretty consistent formula of fans enjoy winning, he said.
- 34:39Speaker 1: He then quote continues said and so our expectations is
- 34:42Speaker 1: that we have to do work and do the right things.
- 34:45Speaker 1: Blah blah blah for fans to enjoy the experience. See,
- 34:49Speaker 1: I don't think that's strong enough. He's not a very
- 34:51Speaker 1: strong guy. He's kind of a soft guy. McDaniel. It

- 38:14Speaker 7: Do you have an answer, Lorrain, Yes, I gotta go
- 38:17Speaker 7: with Mike and Ike.
- 38:19Speaker 1: Bet is it Mike and I know that is incorrect,
- 38:21Speaker 1: the correct the answer would be Drew Brees and Jimmy Wright.
- 38:28Speaker 2: Back of the smaller about that to the third degree,
- 38:33Speaker 2: this is one big Ben gets.
- 38:36Speaker 1: Grilled and now a woman who made a very poor
- 38:39Speaker 1: decision as a child and became a Saints fan. Our
- 38:41Speaker 1: friend Breeze. That was such a disc that's so good.
- 38:45Speaker 1: What's so true?
- 38:45Speaker 7: I have my I am i Bloomingdale's trash back. Now
- 38:48Speaker 7: I've moved up. I'm not Trader Joe's anymore. I have
- 38:50Speaker 7: a Bloomingdale's trash, you know, for my ades. So that's exciting,
- 38:54Speaker 7: Thank you so much. I'm ed Ordren revealed on Wednesday
- 38:57Speaker 7: Bend he would love to return to LSU as the
- 39:00Speaker 7: head coach. What's the chances of that happening?
- 39:03Speaker 1: You think I'll give Ed?
- 39:05Speaker 2: Oh?
- 39:06Speaker 1: I want to give him a ten percent chance, And
- 39:09Speaker 1: the only reason I'm going ten percent is he has
- 39:11Speaker 1: to have some booster. The way these guys get the jobs,
- 39:14Speaker 1: you got to suck up to the billionaire boosters, the
- 39:17Speaker 1: billionaire boys club, and if you get one of those
- 39:19Speaker 1: guys to sign off and support you, you can get
- 39:22Speaker 1: the job. But he failed at the end. He did
- 39:24Speaker 1: win with Drew Brees, with you, Brees with Joe Burrow
- 39:28Speaker 1: and whatnot. Next.
- 39:29Speaker 7: Okay, so we're about four days away from the NFL
- 39:31Speaker 7: trade deadline. You've talked about a number of trade rumors
- 39:34Speaker 7: that a lot of.
- 39:35Speaker 1: Teams have denied.
- 39:36Speaker 7: Which team do you think is going to be most
- 39:38Speaker 7: active at the deadline.
- 39:39Speaker 1: Well, the Giants should trade Russell Wilson or Jamis Winston.
- 39:42Speaker 1: I'd like to see Jameis Winston go somewhere and play.
- 39:45Speaker 1: I like watching him play, So that would be one.
- 39:47Speaker 1: And the Cleveland Browns Miles Garrett doesn't want to be there.
- 39:50Speaker 1: You can get a lot for him. We're going to
- 39:51Speaker 1: talk about that more later, but I think that would
- 39:53Speaker 1: be the obvious one. Also.
- 39:54Speaker 7: Next, all right, the seventy six ers are four and
- 39:56Speaker 7: oh so far, and people are thinking that they are
- 39:58Speaker 7: legit contenders for once it isn't because of Joelle Embiid.
- 40:02Speaker 7: The evolution of Tyrese Maxey has people looking at Philly
- 40:05Speaker 7: a little bit different. Ben, do you think he's a
- 40:07Speaker 7: game changer.
- 40:10Speaker 1: He's off to a good start. It's we're not even
- 40:14Speaker 1: at November first yet. I can't. I've been trying to
- 40:16Speaker 1: watch some of these NBA games. I'm not quite there yet.
- 40:19Speaker 1: I'm not buying the Sixers. When the dust settles, the
- 40:23Speaker 1: East is wide open, but I'm not buying that they're
- 40:25Speaker 1: going to be there at the end, mainly because Joel
- 40:27Speaker 1: Embiid is still on that team and he's dead weight.
- 40:29Speaker 1: How did we do plus Ben? Unlike the Saints, I
- 40:33Speaker 1: passed it up.
