• 0:06
  Speaker 1: two of the Ben Maller Show. And here in hour
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: number two, we start out in Wisconsin. Are you on
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: the Packers' Jordan Love campaign train for MVP? There's some
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: stories bouncing around the echo chamber that Jordan Love is
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: a Dark Horse MVP candidate. Okay, we'll examine that. Also,
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: has Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud already shown enough to get
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: a record-setting deal? He bet on himself, has some good stats.
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: The Texans have a losing record. And which side of
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: the aisle are you on regarding this big, almost million-dollar
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: sports memorabilia heist? I get on the Benny soapbox and
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: rant and rave about how ridiculous the trading card industry
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: has become. Over the years, a Malheur rant coming in three, two, one, kaboom!
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: Feeling the love! Prematurely, by the way, prematurely. Welcome in
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: the beginning of another hour of the Ben Malheur Show.

• 1:44

• 1:52
  Speaker 1: Our friend Jerry from Rhode Island, Kathy in Madison, say,

  Speaker 1: I'll tell you about DraftKings. They said, okay, sure. Hey, Mona.

• 3:35
  Speaker 1: from the state of Wisconsin, not, not about the Brewers.
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: The World Series does not begin until Friday, so we'll
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: head up north to the frozen tundra, Green Bay. Fresh
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: off an island game, Sunday night, the Packers taking down
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys. How about them Cowboys? And so, immediately
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: following that game, and ever since then, I know we're
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: Now on to hump day here on Wednesday, doing the
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: Humpty Hump. And has been reading here slobbering reviews of
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: Jordan Love. Slobber, slobber, slobber! And his performance. And if
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: you didn't see this, perhaps not. There's a couple of
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: stories bouncing around. The one that caught my attention from FoxSports.com.
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: The website over there claiming that Jordan Love has now
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: entered the MVP conversation.
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: What?
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah. It's not just that. There's others bouncing around the
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: rumor mill there, arguing that Jordan Love deserves serious consideration.
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: If you look at the gambling market. like with our
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: friends at DraftKings, last I checked, Jordan Love was somewhere
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: in the 9 or 10 category, the odds to win
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: the most valuable player of the year award. And the
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: argument is rather simple, that the ability to overcome a
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: puke offensive line in Green Bay and the deficiencies that
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: that has led to, the lack of a running game,
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: has proven the value of Jordan Love. The Packers have
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: the absolute worst, absolute worst rushing attack ever. The pass
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: protection has not been good. In fact, if you look
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: at some of the nerd numbers, we all love our
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: nerd numbers. The dorks tell us that Jordan Love facing
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: a league-worst 24.5% quick pressure rate. No idea what that was.
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: I was able to grow up watching football without ever
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: having to even hear quick pressure rate. You know why?
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: It didn't exist! It exists now. They claim, they that
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: keep track of the numbers... They say that Jordan Love
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: has had just 2.35 seconds before pressure arrives. It's a
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: real sob story. It really just is. Now, despite all that,
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: Green Bay, thanks to playing some tomato cans like the
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys, the Packers are 4-2, and they would be
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: a playoff team in the rather crappy NFC. If you
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: look at the playoff picture, Green Bay would be one
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: of the playoff teams. as the old wild card. So
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: that is a good jumping-off point. Let us discuss the question.
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: Are you in on the Packers-Jordan Love's campaign train for MVP?
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: Are you on the Packers-Jordan Love campaign train for MVP?
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: So I've got cement mixer, polka-dock bikinis, and ambulance-chasing billboard lawyers.
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: We'll combine all of these things together, and we'll do
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: some code switching, I think, is what we're going to do.
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: I think we'll just do some code switching. So we
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: always start with number one.
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: Number one.
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: One, one, one, one, one. Number one. So we are not,
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: not on the Jordan Love train. No, we're not. We're not.
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: If we voted today, we have the show to do today.
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: If we voted today, Jordan Love would not even be
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: on our ballot, would not be on the ballot. The
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: campaign is built on what he might accomplish, what he
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: could do, but not based on what he has done
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: up until this point. So for us, we're not getting
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: on the love train. Instead, we're sleeping next to the
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: vending machine at Union Station without a pillow. I got
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: my jacket. I'll use that as my pillow. And that's that.
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: So the MVP race, you know what it looks like
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: to me at this point? And somebody called up the
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: other day about Brock Purdy or sent a message. I
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: forget what a call or a message about Brock Purdy
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: being the MVP and all this stuff. And I look
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: at the MVP race like I looked at the traffic
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: I saw in Mexico City over the weekend. Not even
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: a rush hour. Just like at any time. And I
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: look at the MVP race like that traffic in Mexico
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: City because it's gridlock. It's chaos. Everyone's honking. Nobody's separating
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: from the pack at this particular point. That's the reality
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: of the situation. Jordan Love is kind of stuck in
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: the middle lane. He's got his blinker on. He's trying
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: to change lanes. He's in the middle lane. He's stuck
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: in traffic. And you look around and he's stuck behind
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: a cement mixer and a Volkswagen Beetle. from like 1982.
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: So he currently is the 18th ranked quarterback, which is,
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: I believe, in the middle, right there in the middle
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: of NFL quarterbacks. He also is 29th in completion percentage,
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: which I don't think is good. Oh, you're being mean, Maller!
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: You're being mean! I know.
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: I know.
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: It's a bad job by me. So we're celebrating mediocrity
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: with a little cheese fondue. How do you do on top?
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: So the argument is you want to give the guy,
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: Jordan Love, an award because the offensive line is not
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: playing well. Okay. That's how that works, right? That's not
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: an MVP. You can give him some kind of claim,
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: like a worker's comp claim, if you want. So you're
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: just going to reward bad offensive line. Whoever's the worst
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: offensive line, Joe Burrow a couple years ago, terrible offensive line,
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: should be the MVP. Great. Why don't we give our
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: favorite trash guy, Danny DeVito, in the Boston area, we
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: can give him a Nobel Prize because he overcomes the
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: foul smell of the trash rotting in his truck. So
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: we'll give him an award. Good afternoon, good evening, and
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: good night. All right. Now, meanwhile, to Houston, much to
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: the dismay of our friend, longtime friend of the show, Mr. Irrigation.
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: after a wretched start the texans picking up a little
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: bit of steam here thanks to playing some teams that
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: are not all that good tennessee for example and jacksonville
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: i was fooled for a couple weeks i thought jacksonville
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: was actually good i've changed my position on the Jacksonville
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: Jaguars anyway CJ Stroud is the story here and is
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: being celebrated why because he bet on himself now remember
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: Houston the story was they offered around 50 million dollars
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: annually to to sign C.J. Stroud to an extension before
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: the season kicked off. But C.J. Stroud said ixnay on
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: the contract and rejected. He rejected that offer, putting the
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: kibosh on extension talks. Now we're hearing the chatter that
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: his improved performance was could, could, that's a weasel word,
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: could push his contract value towards over $ 60 million a season.
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: That here we are heading into a week seven in
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: the NFL and already the determination has been made that
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: the price has gone up. There's some inflation involving the
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: quarterback for the team in Houston. So the question for
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: you is this. Has Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud already shown
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: you enough to get a record-setting deal? So I will
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: go first, and then we'll allow you to go. So
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: to answer the question, I am shaking my head no.
• 11:46
  Speaker 4: No.
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: My eyes are closed. I'm shaking my head no. If
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: you're watching on the YouTube feed on demand later, I
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: am still shaking my head no, and I'm going to
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: be dizzy if I keep doing this, so I better stop. So, yeah,
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: I'm shaking my head no. Now, there are some stat humpers,
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: and I have friends of mine that are stat humpers.
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: They're in, like, three different fantasy football leagues. The big
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: stat humpers out there, they love C.J. Stratton. Love him.
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: Call C.J. Stroud the Sultan of Statistical Satisfaction if you
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: pay attention to those kind of things. Statistics, while they're
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: nice if you're playing fantasy football, as the famous line
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: goes from back in the day, the statistics are kind
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: of like the polka dot bikinis. They show a lot,
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: but they don't show everything. There's some very important things
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: that are not being shown. And that's it. So in reality, though, C.J. Stroud,
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: I put him in that category as a Frito-Lay quarterback.
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: And he's doing cosplay that for Halloween, he's going to
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: be the Frito Bandito. We see this a lot. Quarterbacks
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: that put up statistics that look good to the low
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: information fan. However, they're not winning players. And I look at. C.J. Stroud,
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: and there's a lot of crunch, free-to-lay, a lot of crunch,
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: plenty of salt, and very little nutritional value in the
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: statistics that he puts up. I just don't trust C.J.
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: Stroud in big spots. I'm just done with him after
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: the playoff performances with the Texans, who've had championship-level defenses,
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: and the thing that has killed them is C.J. Stroud.
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: Multiple times. So I look at the guy like he's
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: got a virus, like some kind of Trojan horse virus.
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: There is a glitch in the programming of C.J. Stroud.
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: I just don't see it. And pound for pound for
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: a quarterback on a team that's supposed to be good
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: enough to win, pound for pound, C.J. Stroud is at
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: the very bottom. Now, the critics still, though, they love
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: the trailers. And we're still waiting for the feature film.
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: And I commend the Texans for not giving C.J. Stroud
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: the contract. And I do know, though, based on what
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: I have seen from my time behind the bully pulpit
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: here at Fox Sports Radio, that no matter how ridiculous
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: this gets in terms of the money game, It's not
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: going to stop with C.J. Stroud, meaning that quarterback salaries
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: are resembling modern art. Nobody seems to understand the price point,
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: and everybody pretends it's all justified, money well spent. And
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: so some jack-wagon GM will end up paying the price
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: for C.J. Stroud. Now, final point. I'm going to change
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: it up a little bit. A number of you have
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: reached out to me over the years and said that
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: you collect memorabilia. Maybe you're around my age. You're getting old.
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: You have an old garage full of baseball cards or
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: somewhere in your attic or somewhere in your house. And
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: so you collected sports memorabilia and you're like, well, I'm
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: into it. That's my thing. And I talk about it
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: a lot. So I bring this up because there was
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: a major story in that world. The trading card world,
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: a bunch of trading cards worth at least $ 960- something thousand dollars,
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: almost a million dollars, were stolen. Did you see this?
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: This happened the other day from an unattended FedEx truck
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: outside of Professional Sports Authenticator, better known by their gangster name, PSA.
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: This happened in the hood in Santa Ana. In the OC,
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: Thies removed the truck's lock, stole not one but two pallets.
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: They also futched around with a third pallet of sports memorabilia. Now,
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: it's not just sports. It's also for the Pokemon nerds.
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: I know that's a tough day for our friend Ferg Dog.
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: He probably had some stuff taken. So, Pokemon and sports
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: cards were targeted. The estimated losses could... Remember, that's a
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: weasel word. Could... could reach in the millions involving thousands
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: of cards. Thousands of cards. One customer reportedly lost $ 500, 000
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: in declared value because some guy robbed a FedEx truck.
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: $ 500, 000 in declared value. Now, PSA deactivated the stolen card
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: certificates and they promised fair market value compensation. So they said, however...
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: The people that are involved in this, the people that
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: got their stuff taken, they're, of course, concerned. They said,
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: this is irreplaceable memorabilia, and we're never going to be
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: able to get this back. We can't afford to get
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: it back. We're screwed. So there are obviously some questions
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: that are being asked here. The heist, not only about
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: the FedEx truck, why it was left alone... just in general,
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: the whole system, the way the system works in that
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: world of sports memorabilia, protecting valuable collectibles when they're being shipped.
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: And it's really the only way to do it. At
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: this point, it's the only way to do it. So
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: the question, which side of the aisle are you on
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: regarding these sports memorabilia heists? Where are you at on this?
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: Some are saying, well, this is not an issue with
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: the industry. This is an issue with the people at
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: FedEx that Somebody screwed up. Maybe it was an inside job. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: So here's where I stand on this. The biggest hustle,
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: the biggest hustle here is not the stealing of the
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: baseball cards, which is obviously wrong. You shouldn't steal stuff.
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: And we all learned that in kindergarten. It's convincing people,
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: grown adults, to pay for professional opinion about a piece
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: of cardboard. Not a game. Not a game. Cardboard. Now,
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: PSA should change the name. Right now, PSA, the name
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: they have, as we gave you, is Professional Sports Authenticator.
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: That is PSA. They should change it to Pay Somebody
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: for Approval, which is essentially what the business model is.
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: It's kind of like ambulance-chasing billboard lawyers. They always win.
• 18:23
  Speaker 4: In the end.
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: The people that grade the cards always win in the end.
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: And we've invented as a society a billion dollar industry
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: where grown men mail pictures of other grown men across
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: the the Americas to some dude with a magnifying glass
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: out and wearing plastic gloves who can tell them, Hey, sorry,
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: the corners are pointy on this one. The line is
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: not all the way pure in the printing of this
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: piece of cardboard. Now the American dream for some is, Is, hey,
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: I worked my entire life. I haven't saved any money.
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: I did have this thing of baseball cards, this big
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: giant doohickey of baseball cards. And so I would like
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: to take those cards that I spent like five bucks
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: to buy back in 1995. And I'd like to take
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: that and I'll spend $ 100 to have these things inspected
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: or whatever it is. And and that's it. And I'll
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: convince another sucker because of the grade to spend five
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: thousand dollars. It is wild, though. And our buddy Mike Harmon,
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: who is in this world a lot. And I see
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: Mike like ships passing in the night. He works on
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: the Jay. Smith show, which is like the Mike Harmon
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: show with Jason Smith, of course, you know. Uh, and,
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: and so Harmon, he's in this world and we've talked,
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: I have a bunch of old stuff and, and I'm like, well,
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: at some point I, you know, I can't take it
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: with me when I croak, I might as well sell
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: it before I croak at whatever that happens. And so
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: a PSA nine, let's say you get a PSA grade
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: of nine, that could be worth, I don't know, $ 800
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: on some card. However, if you get a PSA 10
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: instead of $ 800, it's $ 8, 000. Oh, my God. It's wild.
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: Same picture, same cardboard, and it's just a different horoscope,
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: if you will. So it's all subjective. It's judgment masquerading
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: as a scientific certainty. Remember, trust the science. They said
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: things change. Sports memorabilia. Changes also. So I've I've got
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: this interesting quagmire where I have a treasure trove of
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: sports memorabilia. And it's in a secret location collecting dust.
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: And I like some good stuff. When I was a kid,
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: I collected a bunch of stuff. And in the early
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: days of my radio career, I covered a lot of baseball.
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: So I was around people and they just give me
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: random crap. To them, it didn't really have any value.
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: But to me, I was like, all right, I'll take
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: that baseball. I'll take the batting gloves. I'll take the bats.
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: Why not? And I'll hold on to that stuff. Of course,
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: these are players 30 years ago that are long retired
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: and all that. Unfortunately, all that crap that I've picked up,
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: the crap, all the memorabilia, which is just great memories
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: to look at. And I do believe some of it
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: is worth a good amount of money that I could
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: certainly use at some point. As you know, doing overnight radio,
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: they keep giving you raises every year and they really
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: take care of you. So it's, you know, I really
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: need that money. You know, they really show you the
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: way financially. Anyway, but that stuff's going to stay exactly
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: where it is in that secret location. The main reason
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: I am not interested in participating in the grift where
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: you have to spend a bunch of money to have
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: this stuff graded. I'm just, I'm not into it. That's
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: not my jam. And maybe I'll be convinced at some
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: point by somebody. To be like, all right, here's what
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: you should do. There's no guarantee. You send this stuff in,
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: it's like no guarantee. I've had emails over the years
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: from people who are fans of the show who've sent
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: stuff in and they didn't get it graded the way
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: they wanted it and all that stuff. But anyway, somebody
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: stole almost a million dollars. of Pokemon and sports cards.
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: It's pretty wild. We will clear the lines here, and
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: we're going to start anew this hour. So if you're
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: on hold, hang up on yourself. I want a full
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: new board of calls. And if you want to be part, 877-99-ON-FOX.
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: He's going to clear out the lines here. Let me
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: hang up on this guy. Hold on a sec here. See,
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: apparently it's not working here. Let me see if that's, uh, no,
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: it's still not working. I guess the phones are not, uh,
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: not working. Gremlins! That's weird. Usually I, maybe, uh, it's
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: not working. I don't know. What do you mean?
• 23:04
  Speaker 5: I don't know.
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: It's not, uh, it's not working. I'm hitting this. It
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: looks like it is on my, on my end. I
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: don't know. I don't know. You're punching up five right now.
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: All right. Let me see here. Hold on a sec here. Four. Yeah,
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: it's these. I'm not hearing. I'm trying to hang up
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: on these people. They won't let me hang up apparently,
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: I guess, uh. Let's hit that, hit that right there, now,
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: and then boom. There we go. Okay, it only took
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: two minutes. Here we go. Let me try it again.
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: One more time. There we go.
• 23:30
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: Let me try line six. Didn't work. Line five's gone.
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: Let me do line three here.
• 23:38
  Speaker 4: All right.
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: Line three's gone. There we go. All right. 877-99 on Fox.

  Speaker 1: So check out the Instagram and Facebook page if you
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: have not seen. I'll probably post more photos. Might as well.
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: What the hell? On Instagram, Ben Maller on Fox. See
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: some photos from the pyramids of Mexico, but those are
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: actually temples and things like that. They were religious buildings. Oh,
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: did you go to the Mayan thingies? The pyramids. Oh, yeah,
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: whatever they're called.
• 25:27
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: It was cool. Are you able to climb those or no? Oh,
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: one of them, yeah, you can climb. And it's very steep. I...
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: chose to save my life and not... You're like, I
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: didn't do it. I didn't go. I did not. Well,
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, it was.
• 25:44
  Speaker 5: I want to do the pyramids in Egypt too, but
• 25:46
  Speaker 5: I saw those are like little cavernous tunnels that are
• 25:48
  Speaker 5: really small.
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: You know what I'll do? Someday, my brother's actually going
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: to the pyramids in Egypt later this year, my older brother.
• 25:54
  Speaker 6: Ooh.
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: And he's not excited about it, but I would go
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: and just eat a Big Mac. There's a McDonald's, apparently,
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: I saw. No, seriously, there's a McDonald's across from the pyramids. Like,
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: how perfect is that for the modern world that we
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: have the pyramids in Egypt and there's a McDonald's like
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: a couple miles away?
• 26:13
  Speaker 5: Eat a chicken McNugget, and ride a camel at the
• 26:17
  Speaker 5: same time.
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah, look at that. Get you a supersized drink the
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: whole thing. Anyway, check out the Instagram page, Ben Maller
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: on Fox, Facebook page, Ben Maller. So next hour, about
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: an hour from now, a little over an hour from now,
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: we'll have the Queen of Hearts with Lorena. It's her
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: birthday week coming up next, what, the 27th? Six more days.
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: Six more days. We're counting down. And so Lorena will be...
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: Having her segment next hour, Queen of Hearts, hashtag Queen
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: of Hearts. Coop is here at Bronco Family Rentals, also
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: available on the X Machine at FSR Tech Queen. Thank you,
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: thank you, thank you. We're going to take some calls. Also,
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: we have Mallard to the third degree coming up a
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: little bit later in the hour. We'll have the Insta
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: trivia as well. There you go. Larry D. writes in.
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: He says, Ben, you called it the best player move
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: at the trade deadline. The Rays fixing Freddy Peralta.
• 27:09
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: That's great moments in Mets history. I do love that
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: it's another reason for the New York Met fan to
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: bitch and complain. Because Freddy Peralta was, I believe at
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: one point, we had the stat the other day, had
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: the worst ERA of any qualified pitcher in baseball a
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: couple months into the season. And ends up winning the
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: League Championship Series MVP award. King Rory says Jordan Love
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: is far from being the league's MVP, but I will
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: say he is 10 times better than trash, otherwise known
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: as Bo Nix. Things are not going well for Bo Nix.
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: I would recommend that he plays well for a couple
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: games in a row because if this continues the way
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: it's going, the Broncos will be back in the market.
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: They'll be on the flea market trying to find a
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: quarterback next year. They're not going to keep going down
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: this road with Bo Nix. because we're getting close to
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: the point where you have to either pay Bo Nix
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: or get rid of Bo Nix. You can't pay him.
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: There's no way you can pay him, even though these
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: teams are diabolical with that kind of stuff. Let's go
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: to the phones. Only his third year. Yeah, the fifth-year option,
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: you have to decide, I believe, after this year, right?
• 28:16
  Speaker 5: Yeah, but they can do the fifth-year option. He's not
• 28:19
  Speaker 5: worth the money. What is worth the money? You don't
• 28:22
  Speaker 5: have to give them a contract extension. They can just
• 28:24
  Speaker 5: exercise the fifth-year option.
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: Why not go get a good quarterback? He's not good.
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: Can't you find somebody better?
• 28:31
  Speaker 5: No?
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: All right, let's go to the phone. Let's say hello
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: to Kerry, who's in Ontario. That could be in Canada.
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: That could be in Southern California. I don't know. Hey,
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: what's up, Kerry? That sounds like Southern California to me.
• 28:44
  Speaker 3: St. Catharines, Ontario, Canada.
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: Oh, Canada.
• 28:50
  Speaker 3: Niagara Falls, brother.
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: Oh, I love it, man. That's my first sojourn when
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: I went to Niagara Falls with my younger brother. We
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: crossed over, and I was amazed. The Canadian side was
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: better than the U.S. side at Niagara Falls, but it
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: was pretty much the same crap. It was all tourist
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: crap and casino.
• 29:07
  Speaker 3: Yeah, indeed. It's great to talk to you, man. First
• 29:13
  Speaker 3: time caller.
• 29:13
  Speaker 6: Ding, ding, ding.
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: Ding, ding, ding. First time caller. Long time listener.
• 29:19
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 29:20
  Speaker 3: So I have a question about some of the talking
• 29:25
  Speaker 3: about the cards and grading and I have like three
• 29:33
  Speaker 3: Gretzky rookie cards.
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: Oh, really? That's good.
• 29:38
  Speaker 3: And even the mess are worth quite a bit. And
• 29:42
  Speaker 3: the Gretzky second-year cards are actually worth quite. A bit
• 29:49
  Speaker 3: of large, too.
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah, there's stuff for a lot of money. I have
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: a bunch of, like, Michael Jordan stuff from his, I
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: don't think I have a rookie card, but I have, like,
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: his second-year cards worth a lot of money, too. So, yeah,
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: there's some stuff I've picked up.
• 30:01
  Speaker 3: I got some funky cards, man. I got Charlie's Angels cards.
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: Oh, that's classic 1970s, 80s right there, early 80s.
• 30:09
  Speaker 3: And happy days.
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: Oh, wow. Have you gotten anything graded? Have you played
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: the game?
• 30:16
  Speaker 3: Well, that's the thing I was going to ask you.
• 30:18
  Speaker 3: It seems pretty scary to send them off to somebody.
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: I know, right? I'm right there with you. I'm not
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: disagreeing with you.
• 30:31
  Speaker 3: I was listening to everything you said, and it's like... Oh, shoot, shoot, shoot, whatever.
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: I think shoot would be the proper term, I believe.
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: Watch your language. I like that you said shoot and
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: then said the thing you can't say, but it's pretty good. Anyway,
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: all right. Yeah, so there's really no other way to
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: do it. PSA is the big one. There's another company
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: that can do it, but PSA is the big one,
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: and it's like to get any real money, typically, unless
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: you go to the black market, you have to get
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: it graded. That's the problem. But you know that.
• 31:07
  Speaker 3: So in St. Catharines, we have a sports card memorabilia
• 31:14
  Speaker 3: function every two months. And none of these guys, I
• 31:21
  Speaker 3: don't know, seem like they're all clowns.
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: I don't know who you're talking about, but I've dealt
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: with some shady characters in that business. When I was
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: in high school, I got a little extra side money.
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: I was an autograph hustler when I was in high school.
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: I'd go around and I would stock baseball players at
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: their hotels and restaurants and get autographs. Not for me.
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: I got paid and I'd use the money to go
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: to games or whatever. I'm almost 60. So when we
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: were in grade....
• 31:54
  Speaker 3: Four and five and six, we'd play cards against the
• 31:58
  Speaker 3: wall at school.
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and you destroyed a bunch of cards that are
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: worth a lot of money.
• 32:02
  Speaker 3: Probably ruined so much.
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I know. We've all had similar stories. Well, Kerry, listen,
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: I've got to run, but thank you, man. Thanks for listening,
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: and good luck. I hope you make a lot of money,
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: become very wealthy from the cards. Let me know if
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: you do, okay? Thank you. That was our friend Kerry.
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: Let's say hello to Manuel in Gardena, a show legend
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: who has called back. Hello, Manuel in Gardena. What's up?
• 32:29
  Speaker 4: I heard the bat signal. She had a bunch of
• 32:33
  Speaker 4: crappy callers on hold. I said, I'm going to bail
• 32:35
  Speaker 4: Benny out. Oh, Benny Beer Cans is all right in
• 32:38
  Speaker 4: my book. You know, the first guy who turned me
• 32:41
  Speaker 4: on to that whole jack wagon industry you're talking about
• 32:45
  Speaker 4: was our dear friend, John the Pie Guy. And I'm
• 32:49
  Speaker 4: not sure if he's up in the sky with God yet,
• 32:52
  Speaker 4: but he was a good dude. I haven't heard from
• 32:54
  Speaker 4: him in years. But I remember when he was first
• 32:56
  Speaker 4: telling me about that stuff, because he was great. He
• 32:59
  Speaker 4: had a good kitchen. But he was saying.
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: Oh, your phone's dying.
• 33:03
  Speaker 4: Oh, there you go. Because they weren't, you know, graded
• 33:07
  Speaker 4: or whatnot.
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 33:09
  Speaker 4: They were freaking premium cars.
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: I know, I know.
• 33:12
  Speaker 4: What a bunch of dumbasses, bro. To hold themselves, to make...
• 33:19
  Speaker 4: you know, this industry, which really anybody could see if
• 33:23
  Speaker 4: the damn card's worth the money or not. Am I wrong, Benny?
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: Yeah, no, I mean, you're mostly right. It's a good
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: way for people who are con artists to say, well,
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: I can't give you the full amount because you haven't
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: had the card graded and I got to spend the
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: money on all that. Meanwhile, they know whether the card's
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: actually going to be worth a fair amount. They're pretty,
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: these guys that work in that world are pretty confident
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: they know what they're doing, so it's a shady business. But,
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: you know, the world's filled with shady people. You know
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: that already. You're a veteran.
• 33:53
  Speaker 4: Carnival barkers and just plain a-holes, right?
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: A lot of a-holes.
• 34:00
  Speaker 4: Hey, man, you know, what do you think about this series, man?
• 34:03
  Speaker 4: You think the Brewers are going to kick the Rays
• 34:06
  Speaker 4: up and down the field?
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: I always go when there's two teams I don't care about,
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: I always go with, do I have a relative that
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: lives close? I do have relatives in Florida, but my
• 34:20
  Speaker 1: brother lives in Wisconsin, so I've got to go with
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: the Brewers.
• 34:22
  Speaker 4: That's right.
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: And when I was in Little League, I played on
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: the Brewers when I was in Little League.
• 34:26
  Speaker 4: That was one of those good squads, the Brewers, the Mariners.
• 34:30
  Speaker 4: Everybody had the Dodgers. Everybody had all the... The Red Sox,
• 34:35
  Speaker 4: the Yankees. But if you got like the Brewers or
• 34:37
  Speaker 4: the Mariners, like when you were a kid, the Orioles.
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 34:40
  Speaker 4: Those were like the good things.

  Speaker 4: burying the hatchet on your Rams. I mean, just kicking
• 34:57
  Speaker 4: them while they're down. I know you heard that promo.
• 35:00
  Speaker 4: I was listening live when it went down and it
• 35:02
  Speaker 4: was glorious, man. I love you, Benny, but the Rams
• 35:06
  Speaker 4: are going nowhere fast. And that's coming from a Raiders fan.
• 35:10
  Speaker 4: And we are too. I know we're a stupid ship
• 35:12
  Speaker 4: as well, but your team sucks, Benny.
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: Well, They stink. All right, go away. Thank you. Manuel,
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: I don't have time for a follow-up because we have

  Speaker 1: Mallard to the third degree straight ahead. 877-99 on Fox.
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: We'll get to your calls here. Stay on hold, guys.
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: I promise. Time now, though, for the Insta trivia. Kenneth
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: Walker III. What a great move by Seattle letting him go.
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: Really good decision there in the front office. So Kenneth
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: Walker III of the Chiefs now became just the second
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: player in NFL history to have 600-plus rushing yards. Six-plus
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: rushing touchdowns and multiple receiving touchdowns through the first five
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: games of a season. Blank was the first player to
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: do it. That is the instant trivia. The answer, next.

• 36:36
  Speaker 1: Ben Maller Show, on the Fox Sports Radio channel live
• 36:39

  Speaker 1: P1 on the iHeart app. So have that on your

  Speaker 1: device as a backup. You can't always trust the local

  Speaker 1: is not. Rowdy Roddy Piper, guessed by Rob on the three, two, one.
• 38:08
  Speaker 1: I'm going to go with Ruben Drones. Ruben Drones. Not
• 38:11
  Speaker 1: an actual drone. No, that is incorrect. Incorrect answer is

  Speaker 1: Jim Brown in 1963 for the old Cleveland Browns. Jim Brown.

  Speaker 2: So.
• 38:30
  Speaker 5: Giants running back Cam Scad, who did not get a
• 38:32
  Speaker 5: carry in their game this past weekend. Yeah, he said
• 38:36
  Speaker 5: he was punished for the fumble from the week previous.
• 38:40
  Speaker 5: But Tiki Barber said that it was more than just
• 38:43
  Speaker 5: a fumble. There's more to it than just that to
• 38:45
  Speaker 5: fumble against the commanders.
• 38:47
  Speaker 6: What?
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: That's what I'm asking you, Ben. Do you think it's
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: the fumble or it's more than the fumble? Tiki Barber's
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: a talk show host, and he's throwing crap out there.
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: If you know it, say it. What is he worried about? Listen,
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: Cam Scandaboo was drafted in the middle rounds. He was
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: not projected to be a star player. He's beloved because
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: of his personality. He's apparently not that good, but I
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: believe he's absolutely benched because he effed up the game
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: before against Washington. That's why it's not. Occam's razor coop,
• 39:13
  Speaker 1: the simplest answer is the right answer.

  Speaker 5: Next. Well, speaking of the Commanders, Stefan Diggs, after their
• 39:19
  Speaker 5: loss this weekend, said on the radio, it's still wide open.
• 39:24
  Speaker 5: Do you think that the Commanders could still win the
• 39:27
  Speaker 5: NFC East?
• 39:27
  Speaker 1: Have you seen the NFC East, Coop? it sucks yes
• 39:32
  Speaker 1: i mean.
• 39:33
  Speaker 7: It's like a south a southern division the nfc east
• 39:37
  Speaker 7: my division as a kid was the greatest division no
• 39:40
  Speaker 7: the chance are in first place at three two and
• 39:42
  Speaker 7: one no one's that good Oh, we only need two questions, right, Coop?
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: That's all we need. Sure. There it is. Mallard to
• 39:47
  Speaker 1: the third degree. How did we do? You get an incomplete. Incomplete? Oh, man,
