Hour 4 - By Committee · The Ben Maller Show

0:00
Speaker 1: Oh what is going on? Happy Friday morning to you.
0:04
Speaker 1: Appreciate you checking out. The show had some fun tonight.
0:07
Speaker 1: Heard from the Mallard militia, some good tweets, fantastic interaction,
0:12
Speaker 1: heard from some old friends, very nice love all that. Okay,
0:17
Speaker 1: So I started off the show and I really made
0:21
Speaker 1: a discovery tonight, probably for the first time, I just
0:27
Speaker 1: finally understood why it happens almost every NFL season where
0:35
Speaker 1: the season ends and I'm like, I'm just counting down
0:39
Speaker 1: to the next season, you know what I mean. I
0:41
Speaker 1: can't wait for football to get here. Like, oh, man,
0:43
Speaker 1: we got the draft, and that gets me energized for
0:46
Speaker 1: the upcoming season. And I'm like, all right, man, look
0:48
Speaker 1: at these draft picks for this team, and man, this
0:51
Speaker 1: team took a step forward, and man, look out for
0:53
Speaker 1: this other squad. And I'm off and running, you know.
0:57
Speaker 1: And then I kind of hit a lull. Not that
1:00
Speaker 1: I'm not looking forward to the season, it's just the
1:04
Speaker 1: nature of the stories that I typically hear about, and
1:09
Speaker 1: this offseason is no different. If you think about some
1:12
Speaker 1: of the stories that are gonna get a lot of
1:14
Speaker 1: attention right now, most of them won't get you excited
1:19
Speaker 1: for the actual season, right, So you think about one
1:24
Speaker 1: of the big stories that it broke on Thursday is
1:26
Speaker 1: that the executive director of the NFL Players Association, Lloyd Howell,
1:32
Speaker 1: is now the former executive director of the NFLPA. He
1:36
Speaker 1: resigned late Thursday night, and so you're gonna hear about that.
1:41
Speaker 1: The reason, just so you understand why he resigned, One
1:44
Speaker 1: of the reasons is that there was a story that
1:46
Speaker 1: came out from ESPN, a report that well, he's still
1:50
Speaker 1: a paid consultant on a part time basis for a
1:54
Speaker 1: group that is seeking minority ownership in NFL franchise. So
2:01
Speaker 1: he's the executive director of the Players Association and meanwhile
2:06
Speaker 1: he's a consultant for this group that's trying to be
2:10
Speaker 1: a minority owner with an NFL franchise. There's player side
2:14
Speaker 1: owner side, player side ownership side. You can't be both.
2:18
Speaker 1: So that's why Lloyd Howell the main reason he's stepping down,
2:22
Speaker 1: He's like, yeah, I think it's time for me to go.
2:25
Speaker 1: So you're gonna hear a bunch about that, probably on
2:28
Speaker 1: Thursday or on Friday. I mean, and it's not gonna
2:33
Speaker 1: get you fired up for the upcoming season whatsoever. You
2:37
Speaker 1: might hear something about Robert Kraft and Bill Belichick. I
2:41
Speaker 1: talked about that earlier on the show tonight. I think
2:44
Speaker 1: they're both competitive to a fault. But none of that
2:48
Speaker 1: is gonna get you excited for the upcoming season. Either.
2:51
Speaker 1: You're gonna hear about the Deshaun Watson contract and possible
2:56
Speaker 1: collusion by the NFL and team owners is absolutely collusion.
3:01
Speaker 1: You're gonna hear about that. That's not gonna get you
3:03
Speaker 1: excited for the upcoming season. So the point is, I
3:06
Speaker 1: think there comes a time where we start hearing all
3:09
Speaker 1: these stories about, you know, NFL related activities. You're gonna
3:14
Speaker 1: hear a bunch about second round players holding out, they
3:19
Speaker 1: want guaranteed contracts, fully guaranteed second round contracts. It's not
3:24
Speaker 1: gonna get you excited for the upcoming season. You're gonna
3:27
Speaker 1: hear about Rashie Rice, the Chiefs wide receiver. He finally
3:32
Speaker 1: got He finally received his sentence. He was driving almost
3:37
Speaker 1: one hundred and twenty miles per hour, led to a
3:40
Speaker 1: multi car pile up. So he gets thirty days in
3:43
Speaker 1: jail and a five year probation sentence. He can serve
3:47
Speaker 1: that jail time at any point over these next five years,
3:52
Speaker 1: you're gonna hear about that story, and it's gonna do
3:54
Speaker 1: nothing for you in terms of the upcoming season, if anything.
3:58
Speaker 1: With Rashie Rice. Now that he's received his punishment, the
4:02
Speaker 1: NFL can now punish him further. So I guess that
4:05
Speaker 1: relates to real football. How many games he'll be suspended for.
4:09
Speaker 1: That has a real layer to it. But a lot
4:11
Speaker 1: of these stories, I didn't think about it like that,
4:14
Speaker 1: and it makes sense, right, Maybe you're like me. The
4:17
Speaker 1: NFL schedule is released and I'm like, oh, wow, look
4:20
Speaker 1: at all these primetime games and this team scheduling. Whoa
4:23
Speaker 1: look at the Lions road schedule. Yikes, that is freaking brutal.
4:27
Speaker 1: And I'm thinking football, football, football, upcoming season. All that.
4:31
Speaker 1: Then the draft roads around, same thing. Wow, look at
4:34
Speaker 1: this team, man, this team, I don't know what they're thinking.
4:37
Speaker 1: What's the impact of this guy on this squad? Yat
4:40
Speaker 1: a real football excited for the season, and then there's
4:44
Speaker 1: a bunch of this it's contract holdouts, it's this guy
4:50
Speaker 1: signed for X amount of dollars. Okay, cool, yeah, all right.
4:54
Speaker 1: Doesn't do anything for me. And that's why, after looking
4:57
Speaker 1: forward to the NFL season for months, I sort of
5:00
Speaker 1: hit this lull where I'm not looking forward to the
5:05
Speaker 1: season in terms of like counting down the days. I
5:08
Speaker 1: just kind of like am floating around, and then it
5:12
Speaker 1: sneaks up on me and I'm like, holy cow, we
5:14
Speaker 1: got the first game of the year is next week.
5:16
Speaker 1: How did that happen? This is how it happens. It's
5:20
Speaker 1: the nature of the stories that you keep hearing about,
5:24
Speaker 1: and I think you just sort of like loose sight
5:27
Speaker 1: of the upcoming NFL season. I never thought of it
5:30
Speaker 1: like that, but I really do. I think the nature
5:32
Speaker 1: of the stories has a lot to do with it.
5:36
Speaker 1: A couple stories that caught my attention that actually do
5:40
Speaker 1: get me excited for the upcoming season. So Bengals wide
5:45
Speaker 1: receiver Jamar Chase, he said something that I see where
5:50
Speaker 1: he's coming from, but I disagree with him. He said
5:51
Speaker 1: that someone will have a two thousand yard receiving season
5:57
Speaker 1: within the next three years. No one's ever done it before.
6:01
Speaker 1: There hasn't been a two thousand yard receiving season in
6:06
Speaker 1: NFL history. Jamar Chase came really close. He had a
6:10
Speaker 1: fantastic season last year. He had over seventeen hundred receiving yards,
6:16
Speaker 1: a lot of touchdown grabs you had. Tyreek Hill came
6:20
Speaker 1: pretty close, but I don't think it'll happen. I'll say this,
6:27
Speaker 1: if this was a prop bet, would you bet on
6:29
Speaker 1: the yes or the no? Over the next three years,
6:31
Speaker 1: there will be at least one player that has a
6:34
Speaker 1: two thousand yard receiving season. I would bet on the no.
6:39
Speaker 1: You can't go wrong betting on the no, right right,
6:42
Speaker 1: I'm kidding, but you can't go very wrong betting on
6:45
Speaker 1: then you're like no in sports betting. But I would
6:50
Speaker 1: take no in this instance because the reason why is
6:54
Speaker 1: we always talk about the running back position the same way,
6:57
Speaker 1: but not the wide receiver position the way we talk
6:59
Speaker 1: about rununning backs. A lot of teams they don't have that,
7:03
Speaker 1: like Bell Cow running back. Yeah, there are exceptions like
7:07
Speaker 1: the Eagle. Saquon Barkley was amazing last season. Dereck Henry
7:11
Speaker 1: was outstanding with the Ravens. Those are the guys. Occasionally
7:16
Speaker 1: you'll have the backup spell them here and there, but
7:19
Speaker 1: they are by far getting the lion's share of the carries.
7:23
Speaker 1: Saquon Barkley, including the playoffs, he had over four hundred
7:27
Speaker 1: rushing attempts last season that is a ton, But more
7:32
Speaker 1: times than not with running backs, it's running back by
7:36
Speaker 1: committee in today's NFL, Right, we don't see that one
7:41
Speaker 1: bell cow lead dog running back who's getting the lion's
7:47
Speaker 1: share of the carries. We don't see that, and so
7:49
Speaker 1: that's why it's harder for running backs to stack huge numbers.
7:53
Speaker 1: It's more a committee approach or a two headed monster approach.
7:57
Speaker 1: It's becoming more like that with wide receipt if you
8:01
Speaker 1: start looking around the league, I mean it's rare that
8:05
Speaker 1: you find a team where it's like, all right, they've
8:07
Speaker 1: got this one stud and a bunch of really mediocre
8:11
Speaker 1: wide receivers around him. So the stud is just getting fed.
8:15
Speaker 1: It's target city, throw, throw, throw his way, right, It's
8:20
Speaker 1: typically not like that. Look at Jamar Chase on his team.
8:24
Speaker 1: He's got T Higgins, another highly paid, very good wide receiver.
8:29
Speaker 1: T Higgins had over nine hundred yards receiving last season.
8:33
Speaker 1: If T Higgins isn't in Cincinnati, it's a give and
8:39
Speaker 1: take type thing. Yeah, that that might take a little
8:43
Speaker 1: production away from Jamar Chase because you can roll coverage
8:46
Speaker 1: that way. There are a lot of things defensively you
8:48
Speaker 1: can do to now try to limit Jamar's effectiveness. But
8:53
Speaker 1: when you have Tea on the field, he's gonna get
8:55
Speaker 1: his targets, he's gonna get his catches, he's gonna get
8:58
Speaker 1: his yards. He's gonna take some of that production away
9:02
Speaker 1: from Jamar Chase. It happens often in the NFL. So
9:06
Speaker 1: while we talk about running back by committee, it's oftentimes
9:10
Speaker 1: wide receiver by committee too. Some of these teams have
9:14
Speaker 1: a great wide receiver and they have a tight end
9:18
Speaker 1: who takes a lot of targets and a lot of
9:20
Speaker 1: production away from the number one wide receiver. So for
9:24
Speaker 1: those reasons, I think the odds are better than not
9:27
Speaker 1: that we're not going to have a two thousand yard
9:29
Speaker 1: receiving season over the next three years. I think it's
9:33
Speaker 1: a crazy take. It could certainly happen, but I would
9:36
Speaker 1: bet against it happening. I would go no, if that's
9:40
Speaker 1: a prop bet that's offered. This is gonna sound silly,
9:44
Speaker 1: but honestly, one of the things that gets me, I'm
9:50
Speaker 1: not like jumping out of bed like, oh man, I
9:53
Speaker 1: can't wait for the NFL season now because of these stories.
9:57
Speaker 1: But they at least do more for me to look
10:01
Speaker 1: forward to the NFL season. Then a lot of this
10:05
Speaker 1: stuff that, oh, second round picks are looking for fully
10:08
Speaker 1: guaranteed deals. It's like, all right, cool, yeah, it's that
10:12
Speaker 1: does nothing to get me energized for the twenty twenty
10:15
Speaker 1: five season to roll around, you know what I mean.
10:18
Speaker 1: So while these stories don't captivate me and fully get
10:22
Speaker 1: me jump started, right, they do more than a lot
10:26
Speaker 1: of these other stories do. It's the alternate uniforms. Yes,
10:30
Speaker 1: I'm an NFL sicco. But Tampa Bay I didn't realize this.
10:34
Speaker 1: So the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, they're gonna break out the
10:37
Speaker 1: classic white and creamsickle road uniforms this season. It'll be
10:42
Speaker 1: the first time in about fifty years they've worn these things. Now,
10:47
Speaker 1: I didn't realize because I'm like, wait a minute, correct
10:51
Speaker 1: me if I'm dead wrong, But I swear Baker Mayfield
10:56
Speaker 1: and Mike Evans they've worn the creamsickle throwback uniforms recently. Right, Like,
11:01
Speaker 1: am I crazy? Am I just dreaming this?
11:04
Speaker 2: They have?
11:05
Speaker 1: But I glossed over it. This is the classic white
11:09
Speaker 1: and creamsicle road uniforms. Right, So these are mostly white uniforms.
11:15
Speaker 1: The numbers are like the creamsicle flavor and all of that.
11:19
Speaker 1: So they're gonna wear them against the Jets in their
11:21
Speaker 1: home opener. This is gonna be the fiftieth season the
11:24
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay Buccaneers, so they're gonna wear the white creamsicle
11:30
Speaker 1: road uniforms against the Jets on September twenty first. Actually, no,
11:36
Speaker 1: I get that wrong. I'm dead wrong. That's weird. So
11:38
Speaker 1: they're wearing the classic white and creamsicle road uniforms for
11:44
Speaker 1: their home opener. That's kind of weird, but whatever, that's
11:47
Speaker 1: what they're doing. And also the Falcons. Falcons are gonna
11:51
Speaker 1: wear throwback uniforms three times this year, so they're rocking
11:56
Speaker 1: the red helmets. It's a sharp look. I love the
11:58
Speaker 1: red helmet throwback uniform for the Falcons. They're gonna wear
12:02
Speaker 1: it three primetime games. One of them is, let's see,
12:06
Speaker 1: it's a Monday night home game against the Bills in
12:09
Speaker 1: week six. They got the Thursday night road game against
12:11
Speaker 1: Tampa in week fifteen, and then there's a Monday night
12:14
Speaker 1: game against the Rams in week seventeen, so they're gonna
12:18
Speaker 1: be rocking the red helmets. Apparently they were three and
12:21
Speaker 1: oh rocking the red helmets. Last year they were five
12:25
Speaker 1: and nine in their other games. But I'll tell you, man,
12:27
Speaker 1: it might sound like wow, Brian Slow Newsday, huh jeez,
12:31
Speaker 1: you always get that. It's like, no, man, there's plenty
12:33
Speaker 1: of stuff to talk about. But that's I guess that's
12:37
Speaker 1: kind of how desperate it gets these these time these
12:40
Speaker 1: at these times where a lot of the stories about
12:45
Speaker 1: the NFL do nothing to get me excited for the
12:50
Speaker 1: upcoming NFL season. And I never really thought about that.
12:54
Speaker 1: That just it accumulates. If you're an NFL fan, you're
12:59
Speaker 1: paying attention to this stuff, and subconsciously, I think it's
13:02
Speaker 1: getting you less and less enthused for the upcoming season,
13:08
Speaker 1: to the point where I'm just not counting it down.
13:10
Speaker 1: I'll see these things on X or whatever. They'll tweet
13:13
Speaker 1: it out like hey, ninety five days until kickoff or
13:17
Speaker 1: whatever like that, and there just becomes a lull where
13:20
Speaker 1: I'm like, man, I can only hear about second round holdouts,
13:25
Speaker 1: the executive director of the Players Association resigning. You know,
13:29
Speaker 1: I can only hear about this stuff so much before
13:32
Speaker 1: I'm just yawning and like say, this does nothing for
13:36
Speaker 1: me as far as the upcoming season is concerned. I
13:38
Speaker 1: never thought about it like that until now, but I'm
13:41
Speaker 1: sure there are some of you listening that probably feel
13:43
Speaker 1: the exact same way. All Right, eight seven seven ninety
13:46
Speaker 1: nine on Fox is your phone number. Feel free to
13:48
Speaker 1: hit us up. Meller Militia always love hearing from you.

13:54
Speaker 1: to hit me there. Okay, So we've got Coop Scoops
13:58
Speaker 1: coming up pretty soon. And also I saw a list.
14:04
Speaker 1: I saw a column in terms of overrated and underrated teams,
14:10
Speaker 1: and I just wanted to throw throw out what some
14:12
Speaker 1: of this writer was talking about. I agree with some stuff,
14:15
Speaker 1: disagree with other things, but something to keep on your radar.
14:18
Speaker 1: We'll compare notes coming up. I'm Prian no In for

Speaker 1: I love me some dua lipa? And uh is that
15:12

15:17
Speaker 1: tall woman, that dua lipa over there? But uh, is
15:21
Speaker 1: it okay to let you let the people know about
15:23
Speaker 1: Rick Ross and you? Is that alright? Lorena?
15:26
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, I definitely have a thing for Rick Ross.
15:28
Speaker 1: For sure have a thing for Rick Ross.
15:30
Speaker 5: I could also get it.
15:33
Speaker 1: Okay, nice, very nice? I thought, Uh, you meant Jeff
15:36
Speaker 1: Ross the roast master.
15:37
Speaker 5: I don't even know who that is.
15:39
Speaker 1: Oh, he's so good at roasting. He's like the main
15:43
Speaker 1: guy in every roast beef. But this is a roast,
15:47
Speaker 1: you know, when they're just like, you know, like the
15:50
Speaker 1: Tom Brady roast and everybody's talking trash about Tom Brady. Yeah,
15:54
Speaker 1: they're mean on purpose, and then they say something very
15:57
Speaker 1: nice at the very end like it undoes all the
15:59
Speaker 1: mean things. But Jeff Ross, he's the roast master. But
16:04
Speaker 1: I doubt you have him in the Rick Ross category.
16:07
Speaker 5: Now let me go look him up.
16:08
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm pretty sure Coop knows. Yeah, but very nice. Well,
16:16
Speaker 1: love for Rick Ross over there from Lorena. Very good,
16:19
Speaker 1: very good. Okay, so we got Coop scoops coming up,
16:23
Speaker 1: and just about five minutes from now, I'll get to
16:26
Speaker 1: the militia here in a second, if anybody wants to
16:28
Speaker 1: check in. But I saw this list on the Athletic
16:31
Speaker 1: Mike Jones put this list together of who he thinks
16:35
Speaker 1: are four overrated NFL teams this season and who are
16:40
Speaker 1: four underrated teams in the NFL this season. So his
16:45
Speaker 1: list for the overrated teams, he has the Bills, the
16:50
Speaker 1: forty nine Ers, the Lions, and the Bengals. Now I
16:55
Speaker 1: would disagree with his Bengals selection there for these reasons.
17:01
Speaker 1: Oh wow, we got a lot of the Oh holy cow,
17:03
Speaker 1: the militias are lining up. We got to power through
17:06
Speaker 1: some of these in a second. Okay, I'll be quick.
17:10
Speaker 1: I disagree with him putting the Bengals on the underrated
17:13
Speaker 1: list just because, listen, people struggle with this all the time.
17:17
Speaker 1: Like to be a candidate to be overrated, people have
17:21
Speaker 1: to be talking you up. They have to be waxing, poetic.
17:25
Speaker 1: Who is saying, hey, look out for the Bengals man
17:27
Speaker 1: their sucky defense and whatever they're doing with Shamar Stewart
17:31
Speaker 1: over there, not signing their first round rookie, who was
17:34
Speaker 1: talking about maybe going back to school at Texas A
17:37
Speaker 1: and M look out for the Bengals. Who's saying that.
17:40
Speaker 1: No one is saying that. So they're not a good
17:42
Speaker 1: candidate to be overrated. Now the other three are good candidates. Bills, Niners, Lions.
17:51
Speaker 1: I hear a lot of positive comments about those teams.
17:54
Speaker 6: Now.
17:54
Speaker 1: The Lions have been doubted a decent amount. Their road
17:58
Speaker 1: schedule is brutal. Their schedule overall is really really tough.
18:04
Speaker 1: So I have heard some some skeptics, but there are believers.
18:08
Speaker 1: I hear a lot of positivity about the Niners because
18:11
Speaker 1: they have a cake schedule, and of course a lot
18:14
Speaker 1: of positivity about the Bills. Of those teams, who do
18:18
Speaker 1: you think is going to turn out to be overrated?
18:22
Speaker 1: I would say it's the Niners. The Niners have a
18:24
Speaker 1: lot of turnover, They lost a lot of defensive players,
18:28
Speaker 1: a lot of contributors. You know, Trent Williams, he only
18:31
Speaker 1: played ten games last season. They're left tackle. Christian mccaffery's
18:35
Speaker 1: supposed to be back and looking great, but he only
18:37
Speaker 1: played four games last season. Significant injury. When you're talking
18:40
Speaker 1: like achilles tendonitis, that's a serious deal. So I just
18:46
Speaker 1: don't I don't believe in the Niners. They have a
18:49
Speaker 1: cake schedule, should win a bunch of games, but I
18:52
Speaker 1: think they're going to be fools gold. I just I
18:57
Speaker 1: don't think the roster is nearly as good as it
18:59
Speaker 1: was their GM. John Lynch said, hey, we had to
19:02
Speaker 1: get younger and a little bit cheaper. Yeah, because you're
19:04
Speaker 1: paying Brock Purty huge money, Like they gotta do that. Sure,
19:09
Speaker 1: I just don't think Brock Purdy is a guy who
19:11
Speaker 1: can compensate for a weaker roster. It's a good quarterback,
19:16
Speaker 1: but he's not a dude that's just going to say, hey,
19:18
Speaker 1: we've got like a second rate right tackle, or we've
19:22
Speaker 1: got a you know, a second rate wide receiver, cheaper here,
19:26
Speaker 1: cheaper there. That's okay, I got you. I don't think
19:29
Speaker 1: he's that guy.
19:29
Speaker 6: Now.
19:30
Speaker 1: The underrated portion of this and I'll get to the
19:31
Speaker 1: militia real fast. Underrated. He's got Chargers, Cowboys, Cardinals, Jags.
19:40
Speaker 1: He says, hey, Leam Cohen's over that. Maybe he can
19:43
Speaker 1: do for Trevor Lawrence what he did for Baker Mayfield
19:45
Speaker 1: and Tampa. That's the reasoning they went out and got
19:48
Speaker 1: Travis Hunter. You know, I like the Cardinals on this list. Myself,
19:53
Speaker 1: I've gone out. It's my curveball prediction. I have the
19:55
Speaker 1: Cardinals winning the NFC West. I just think off defensively,
20:00
Speaker 1: pretty decent offensive line, Marvin Harrison Junior if he takes
20:04
Speaker 1: a big step forward, love Trey McBride, fantastic tight end.
20:08
Speaker 1: Kyler Murray is a good quarterback. I think Kyler Murray is.
20:12
Speaker 1: You tell me Brock Purty is way better than Kyler Murray,
20:15
Speaker 1: and I'll say, no, you're wrong. I think he's way
20:18
Speaker 1: better than Kyler Murray. I think they're very, very comparable.
20:21
Speaker 1: You give Kyler Murray what Brock Purty enjoyed supporting cast
20:25
Speaker 1: Wise the last two seasons. Kyler Murray is putting up
20:27
Speaker 1: big numbers. You play Brock Purty with Arizona the last
20:30
Speaker 1: couple of years. I don't think Brock party is putting
20:32
Speaker 1: up the same numbers. I just don't. I think Kyler
20:35
Speaker 1: Murray's good enough. And I think what they've done defensively,
20:38
Speaker 1: like some of their draft picks, some of their free
20:40
Speaker 1: agent moves. Jonathan Gannon, you know, doubled their win total
20:44
Speaker 1: over the last two years. I think the Cardinals arrow
20:47
Speaker 1: is still pointed up. I think that's a good selection. Underrated.
20:50
Speaker 1: All right, let me go to the phones. Here, the
20:52
Speaker 1: militia is lining up. I think we've got Chris in Massachusetts.
20:58
Speaker 1: All Star take real quick, Chris, you're on Fox Sports Radio.
21:02
Speaker 1: What's up?
21:02
Speaker 6: Yeah?
21:03
Speaker 7: And I'll be fat because I know you got a lineup.
21:04
Speaker 6: But I loved Brian.
21:06
Speaker 8: I love your takes now as great as Ben's just kidding,
21:09
Speaker 8: but I do love your takes. But the cake earlier
21:13
Speaker 8: when I got in the car about the All Star
21:15
Speaker 8: Game with people dropping out, But when.
21:18
Speaker 7: I was young, a young boy. I'm fifty five, so
21:22
Speaker 7: we love the All Star Game. The reason I love
21:24
Speaker 7: the All Tar Game because you never saw the nl
21:26
Speaker 7: NL teams and that was what made it special. Yeah,
21:30
Speaker 7: And what was great Gary Queen used to have these
21:32
Speaker 7: helmets in their ice cream and their Sunday I'd always
21:35
Speaker 7: go out to Marc and Brewers, the Cincinnati Reds, the
21:38
Speaker 7: Red Sox of course, and it.
21:40
Speaker 8: Just it's nostalgia for me.
21:42
Speaker 9: Now it's not there.
21:43
Speaker 8: And lastly, Brock Colet, who was a Red Sox in
21:46
Speaker 8: utility infielder, made the All Star Game a few years
21:49
Speaker 8: back and that was the joke of the town here.
21:52
Speaker 10: Wow.
21:52
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, good call, Chris, good stuff. Appreciate that. Yeah,
21:57
Speaker 1: I remember the old school, like ice cream helmets. I
22:00
Speaker 1: loved collecting those things for sure. And you're right, it's
22:03
Speaker 1: changed so much. It used to be really really special
22:06
Speaker 1: because this was before interleague play. This was the only
22:10
Speaker 1: time you would see outside of the World Series al
22:13
Speaker 1: players play against NL players and listen, it's changed. I
22:18
Speaker 1: like interleague play, but that's one of the drawbacks is
22:21
Speaker 1: you don't have that special All Star feel anymore. And
22:25
Speaker 1: a lot of things have changed. You've got a million
22:27
Speaker 1: channels now, you had like three way back in the day,
22:31
Speaker 1: and so for baseball to be on it was a
22:33
Speaker 1: big deal. Things have changed, you know, So it happens.
22:36
Speaker 1: Let me go to Mark in the North End. Okay, interesting, Mark,
22:41
Speaker 1: you're on Fox Sports Radio. What's going on?
22:43
Speaker 6: Hey, Brian how's it going good, Bud? So earlier you
22:47
Speaker 6: mentioned in your last segment how as soon as football
22:50
Speaker 6: and you're doing the countdown for the next season to start, right,
22:53
Speaker 6: Uh huh?
22:54
Speaker 11: Okay?
22:55
Speaker 6: Why is it that you know, all these people that
22:57
Speaker 6: loved football so much and miss the fellow as soon
23:00
Speaker 6: as it's over. They can't get enough football? The UFL
23:03
Speaker 6: stops and there's nobody at these games, like not like
23:07
Speaker 6: the standard, like almost completely empty. Where are all the
23:10
Speaker 6: people that love football so much?
23:13
Speaker 1: Well, they love the NFL, you know, they love college football.
23:16
Speaker 1: They don't love the UFL. That would be like saying
23:19
Speaker 1: for anyone who loves music like you love music, and uh,
23:24
Speaker 1: what's what?
23:24
Speaker 2: What?
23:25
Speaker 1: What genre of music do you like the most?
23:27
Speaker 9: Mark?
23:28
Speaker 6: I have a wide genre actually, okay, I don't like
23:33
Speaker 6: it's like heavy metal pretty much.
23:34
Speaker 1: Oh you're killing me, Mark, that's my go to it. Okay, Well,
23:38
Speaker 1: what are you no? It's okay, it's all right. We
23:41
Speaker 1: still cater to the non heavy metal folk. We just
23:44
Speaker 1: judge them behind their back, Loren. That's what we do.
23:47
Speaker 1: That's what we do. What Mark was Okay, so you're
23:49
Speaker 1: a rock guy. What are you into?
23:52
Speaker 6: I mean, I love I love you know what today's
23:55
Speaker 6: music sucks. To be honest with you, I'm a seventy
23:58
Speaker 6: eight nineties guy.
24:00
Speaker 1: Okay, in rock or what like. It's a wide run.
24:05
Speaker 6: I like all these disco, hip hop rap okay, but
24:09
Speaker 6: of those years not now?
24:11
Speaker 1: All right, fair enough, that's fine, Okay. So imagine it
24:16
Speaker 1: like you're this music lover, you know what I mean,
24:19
Speaker 1: and you can see a legendary rapper, you can see whatever,
24:24
Speaker 1: the main dude from that era, and you're in concert,
24:27
Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden, you could see right
24:29
Speaker 1: after that guy one of the worst rappers in town.
24:33
Speaker 1: It's not the same thing. It's not the same product.
24:36
Speaker 1: Like the NFL is the great rapper, the UFL is
24:39
Speaker 1: the sad like disaster of an up and coming rapper.
24:43
Speaker 1: There's a clear difference. It's not just yeah, I hear
24:46
Speaker 1: what you're saying. It's not just where football junkies put
24:49
Speaker 1: anything in front of us and we're gonna eat it up.
24:51
Speaker 1: It's not like that.
24:53
Speaker 6: With that being said, how long do you give the UFL?
24:57
Speaker 10: Well?
24:57
Speaker 1: I hope it sticks around, man. I love this stories.
25:00
Speaker 1: I love that those dudes are trying to, you know,
25:02
Speaker 1: keep their dream alive and maybe make it to the NFL.
25:05
Speaker 6: But to get to the NFL, yeah, they they had.
25:12
Speaker 1: Like the Lions Kicker made it, you know. There They're
25:14
Speaker 1: gonna be a couple of guys here and there that
25:16
Speaker 1: make it to the NFL. But it's not going to
25:19
Speaker 1: be this viable money making product. And it always comes
25:23
Speaker 1: back to that. So welfully they can still make it,
25:27
Speaker 1: but the days might be numbered. Man, gotta make a buck.
25:31
Speaker 6: The NFL doesn't have a hand in that, do they.
25:34
Speaker 1: You know, I'm not positive. I don't think so, but
25:38
Speaker 1: I can't tell you for sure, Mark, I'm not positive.
25:40
Speaker 6: About them, the XFL and the USFL.
25:44
Speaker 1: Right like, if it was say like the g League
25:47
Speaker 1: of the NBA, if this was an NFL product, then yeah,
25:51
Speaker 1: it's going to be around. If they want it to
25:53
Speaker 1: be sort of like a feeder or a minor league,
25:57
Speaker 1: then yeah it would. It'd have a chance.
25:58
Speaker 6: But one that asked the question because I lean forwards
26:02
Speaker 6: more the NHL being the greatest game on Earth. But
26:05
Speaker 6: that's just my opinion.
26:07
Speaker 1: What All Star or just game in general.
26:09
Speaker 6: The NHL just hockey in general, okay, country, And I
26:14
Speaker 6: don't think nothing beats playoff hockey. Anything beats playoff hockey.
26:18
Speaker 1: Well, hey, man, if that's your cup of tea, that's fine.
26:20
Speaker 1: I mean you don't like heavy metal, Mark, so your
26:22
Speaker 1: credentials are shaky at best. I gotta be honest with you.
26:25
Speaker 6: You know I could deal with I read something.
26:30
Speaker 1: Okay, that's good. That's better than none. Well, good stuff.
26:32
Speaker 1: I appreciate talking to you, Mark. That was fun, very nice.
26:36
Speaker 1: All right, we've got Coop scoops over do we have
26:38
Speaker 1: a fancy intro and everything and we just start playing
26:41
Speaker 1: music here.
26:41
Speaker 5: Coop, we can we can go to Marcel and have
26:44
Speaker 5: him with intro.
26:45
Speaker 1: Oh, let's do that, Marcel and Brooklyn is here to
26:49
Speaker 1: give Coop a fancy intro. I love this idea. What's
26:52
Speaker 1: going on, Marcel?
26:53
Speaker 2: Nothing much as it's always getting ready there miss and
26:57
Speaker 2: yes do you all miss me? Why bet you are.
27:02
Speaker 2: I'll be back on Monday and again on Wednesday when
27:05
Speaker 2: my man big Ben is back. But in the meantime
27:08
Speaker 2: it's Friday. They got it Friedday, Fried Day. And yes,
27:14
Speaker 2: the Coop Scoop on entertainment all right for Hollywood starts
27:18
Speaker 2: right now and here, Jo.
27:21
Speaker 1: Man, very well done. Marcel loved that.
27:25
Speaker 5: Yes, I mean you got Marcel.
27:26
Speaker 1: You gotta deliver now, Coop.
27:27
Speaker 5: That's right. Hey, he he always he always throws to
27:30
Speaker 5: this segment.
27:31
Speaker 1: That's very nice.
27:32
Speaker 6: Yes.
27:33
Speaker 10: Uh, So we're gonna start off in the theaters like
27:35
Speaker 10: we always do. And uh, a couple of movies out
27:38
Speaker 10: this weekend of note. The first is and then stop
27:41
Speaker 10: me if you've heard of this movie before. Okay, it
27:43
Speaker 10: is called I Know What You Did Last Summer?
27:46
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, another one of these things.
27:48
Speaker 5: That's right now.
27:50
Speaker 10: I thought it was a reboot when I initially saw
27:55
Speaker 10: like the uh, the posters for it.
27:58
Speaker 6: Huh.
27:58
Speaker 10: But then i'm I saw the I went to the
28:01
Speaker 10: movie theater today and I went and saw. I went
28:05
Speaker 10: saw twenty eight years later, the zombie movie.
28:08
Speaker 1: How was that?
28:08
Speaker 5: I liked it? It was good.
28:10
Speaker 10: Okay, But I saw a trailer for I Know What
28:13
Speaker 10: You Did Last Summer and I saw Jennifer love Hewitt
28:18
Speaker 10: in the trailer and she was in the original.
28:22
Speaker 5: So I don't think it is a reboot.
28:23
Speaker 3: I mean, like.
28:26
Speaker 10: It seemed like they would like well then, right, I guess.
28:28
Speaker 10: I guess, but it's later on in life. Yeah, but
28:32
Speaker 10: I don't know they're calling it a reboot. It's it's
28:34
Speaker 10: not called it not you did last summer too. It's
28:36
Speaker 10: just it's got the same title. But I don't know,
28:39
Speaker 10: it looks it's one of those movies where as of
28:42
Speaker 10: right now, the critics have not enjoyed it, but audiences,
28:48
Speaker 10: but audiences have. It's got thirty seven percent score from
28:52
Speaker 10: the critics, seventy two percent from audience. So you know,
28:57
Speaker 10: it's one of those slasher movies where it's just it's
28:59
Speaker 10: just fun. It's a you know, it's it's not cinema.
29:04
Speaker 1: Who doesn't love a good slasher movie exactly.
29:07
Speaker 9: Yeah.
29:08
Speaker 10: The other movie out this weekend that I wanted to
29:10
Speaker 10: point out is called Eddington, Okay, and this one's got
29:13
Speaker 10: a star studed cast. It's got Joaquin Phoenix, Pedro, Pascal Grimes. Yeah,
29:19
Speaker 10: so lots of lots of big names in here. Austin,
29:22
Speaker 10: Austin Butler's in at Amma Stone. And it is kind
29:27
Speaker 10: of a modern a modern Western.
29:31
Speaker 5: Hmmm.
29:32
Speaker 10: So this is what it says the some reason the
29:34
Speaker 10: may of in May of twenty twenty, a standoff between
29:37
Speaker 10: a small town sheriff and a mayor sparks a powder
29:40
Speaker 10: keg as a as neighbor is pitted against neighbor in Eddington,
29:43
Speaker 10: New Mexico.
29:44
Speaker 1: Wow, and uh, what's the uh? I keep on seeing

Speaker 1: a baseball.
29:59
Speaker 5: Back stealing, caught stealing?
30:01
Speaker 6: Yes?
30:02
Speaker 1: Does that interest you at all?
30:03
Speaker 6: It does?
30:05
Speaker 1: You know?
30:05
Speaker 5: I will, I'll probably check it out. It's got Zoe
30:08
Speaker 5: Kravitz in it. I like Austin Butler, I imagine you do.
30:13
Speaker 1: How about the dude from Game of Thrones that's in
30:15
Speaker 1: Eddington as well? You know, you know the guy I'm
30:18
Speaker 1: talking about, Coop. I don't off the top, you would
30:22
Speaker 1: know where he's like you blanked her, you something her,
30:28
Speaker 1: you killed her or whatever. And then like the Mountains. Oh,
30:31
Speaker 1: Pedro Pascal, Yeah yeah, Pedro Pedro's in freaking every Yeah,
30:36
Speaker 1: my gosh.
30:37
Speaker 5: He's literally like the number one actor right now. Oh
30:39
Speaker 5: for sure, he's even above Dwayne the Rock Johnson.
30:43
Speaker 1: He literally seems to be in everything. It's wild. He's
30:46
Speaker 1: had a great run. He's in the like that what
30:48
Speaker 1: was it the Apple commercial where he's dancing. He's in commercials,
30:52
Speaker 1: in movies and doing all kinds of stuff.
30:54
Speaker 10: Yeah, he's he's in that movie that's out right now.

31:11
Speaker 1: He is a really good actor.
31:12
Speaker 6: Yeah.
31:13
Speaker 10: Moving on to television, we have a new limited series
31:18
Speaker 10: on Netflix. It is called Untamed and it stars Eric
31:23
Speaker 10: Banna as a special agent for the National Park Service
31:27
Speaker 10: who begins an investigation of a brutal death at Yosemite.
31:31
Speaker 10: It is a six part thriller and that is available

31:44
Speaker 5: his own past.
31:46
Speaker 1: I do love Eric Banna in Blackhawk Down. Had a
31:50
Speaker 1: nice role in that movie, Coop, you know what I'm
31:52
Speaker 1: talking about.
31:53
Speaker 6: Yeah.
31:53
Speaker 5: I haven't seen that movie though, like since around when
31:57
Speaker 5: it came out.
31:58
Speaker 1: Oh wow, okay, it's been a while. Yeah, you have
32:00
Speaker 1: to familiarize yourself.
32:02
Speaker 6: I know I have to.
32:02
Speaker 5: I have to rewatch that for sure.
32:04
Speaker 1: That's a great movie.
32:06
Speaker 10: But last, but not least, we have the return of
32:10
Speaker 10: an Apple TV Plus show that I'm a big fan of.
32:13
Speaker 10: It's called Acapulco and I believe this is season four, yes,
32:19
Speaker 10: season four of this show.
32:21
Speaker 5: If you haven't watched this before, it's a.
32:24
Speaker 10: It's a nice, like heartwarming coming of age comedy that
32:29
Speaker 10: takes place in a resort in Mexico. And uh, it's
32:34
Speaker 10: a it's a dual language TV show, but it's it's
32:37
Speaker 10: really good.
32:38
Speaker 5: It's a it makes you, it makes you smile. It's
32:41
Speaker 5: a good show.
32:42
Speaker 1: Okay, I'm just laughing at myself.
32:45
Speaker 6: Man.
32:45
Speaker 1: I apologies to the great city of Acapulco. I suck
32:50
Speaker 1: at spelling, my gosh. Like when the Google's like, are
32:55
Speaker 1: you trying to apocalyptic? Are you going for apocalypse? I'm like, no,
32:59
Speaker 1: I'm not going for any of those things. And I'm like, oh, okay, wow,
33:02
Speaker 1: I was way off, not even close.
33:04
Speaker 5: My gosh.
33:05
Speaker 1: That's just sad right there. But you like that it's
33:08
Speaker 1: a good TV show there.
33:09
Speaker 10: Yeah, it definitely gets a recommendation from me. I have
33:13
Speaker 10: seen all the all the seasons leading up to now.
33:16
Speaker 1: Okay, you recommend any of these summer movies I haven't
33:19
Speaker 1: seen a ton. I've maybe seen one of the main
33:22
Speaker 1: summer movies. Anything you've seen that you highly recommend.
33:27
Speaker 10: I mean, look, I saw I saw Jurassic Park or
33:30
Speaker 10: or how was it or Jurassic World Rebirth or whatever
33:33
Speaker 10: they're calling it. Look, I mean it's uh, it's dinosaurs
33:39
Speaker 10: and cool deaths, and I feel like that's really all
33:44
Speaker 10: you can expect from a Jurassic movie these days. I
33:50
Speaker 10: have not seen Superman yet. I am planning on seeing
33:53
Speaker 10: that this weekend.
33:55
Speaker 1: Okay, I'm gonna go see Superman.
33:57
Speaker 5: This Sea How to Train Your Dragon was great, really great? Yeah, yeah, absolutely, wow.
34:03
Speaker 6: Right.
34:04
Speaker 1: How about is it Scarlett Johansson that's in Jurassic Park
34:08
Speaker 1: or whatever the new one is. How do you feel
34:10
Speaker 1: about Scarlet? You have a big crush on Scarlet.
34:13
Speaker 5: There, Coop, Oh, she's she's an alzheimer Okay, ye're.
34:17
Speaker 1: Where's she on the uh the Jennifer Lawrence Sydney Sweeney
34:23
Speaker 1: scale for you?
34:24
Speaker 5: Well, she's not in the same realm as either of
34:26
Speaker 5: those two women.
34:28

Speaker 1: a fist fight for dua lipa. You know, that would
36:37
Speaker 1: be a be a funny video that Cooper.
36:40
Speaker 5: I think we'd have to fight.
36:41
Speaker 1: Brian, were you just saying you got this first? Oh really? Okay, okay,
36:48
Speaker 1: fair enough? That'd be an interesting, uh you know video
36:52
Speaker 1: from Coop just hey, I saw these two fist fighting
36:55
Speaker 1: each other for the right to Yeah, okay, I'm gonna
37:00
Speaker 1: get to the militia here very quick. I promise you
37:02
Speaker 1: a one minute take. So this is it. Put the
37:05
Speaker 1: start the clock right now. So a Chargers wide receiver
37:08
Speaker 1: Mike Williams he's decided to retire after eight NFL seasons.
37:13
Speaker 1: He walks away at the age of thirty, and listen,
37:19
Speaker 1: this isn't I think what we like a scarecrow topic.
37:22
Speaker 1: I'm not creating something just to you know, go back
37:25
Speaker 1: and forth with air or something. But this happens quite
37:28
Speaker 1: a bit. I don't think it's happening right now. But
37:30
Speaker 1: when someone leaves the game at like thirty years old,
37:33
Speaker 1: a lot of people be like, is this gonna be
37:35
Speaker 1: the norm? Is this the way it always goes? No, man, like,
37:39
Speaker 1: this is not gonna become the norm. There're gonna be
37:42
Speaker 1: some players that retire early. Mike Williams was banged up
37:45
Speaker 1: quite a bit, and there're gonna be some players here
37:47
Speaker 1: and there that retire the game early but are from
37:50
Speaker 1: the game early. But I don't think this is gonna
37:52
Speaker 1: be a thing where players like in Droves are gonna
37:55
Speaker 1: be retiring early. I think it's just just a casual case,
38:00
Speaker 1: spike case thing. Some dudes walk away early, and more
38:03
Speaker 1: power to him, make your money. Depending on your position,
38:06
Speaker 1: you walk away good quality of life for better quality
38:09
Speaker 1: of life, not as many injuries. So I hope it
38:11
Speaker 1: works out for Mike Williams but steps away after eight years.
38:15
Speaker 1: All right, that was quick, about a minute right there
38:17
Speaker 1: on the nose. Let's go fast. Let's go to Ned
38:20
Speaker 1: in Milwaukee. I got to take on Lillard here, only
38:23
Speaker 1: a couple of minutes here, Ned, But try to go
38:25
Speaker 1: quickly for us, if you would, Bud.
38:27
Speaker 6: Okay, yeah, can you break down Damian Lellard's new contract
38:31
Speaker 6: going back to Portland from Milwaukee.
38:33
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's just three years, forty two million bucks for
38:36
Speaker 1: the Blazers, and I believe that offsets the money that
38:41
Speaker 1: he's due from the Bucks, like they wouldn't be on
38:43
Speaker 1: the hook for that much money. They're on the hook
38:45
Speaker 1: for the rest of it though, But.
38:47
Speaker 9: He does have to sit out the first year due
38:49
Speaker 9: to the injury.
38:49
Speaker 1: Though, right, Yeah, yeah, he won't be active for that
38:52
Speaker 1: first year rehab it.
38:54
Speaker 6: So technically speaking, you're getting paid by both both team.
38:57
Speaker 1: Still, no, I think it offset I okay, Yeah. What
39:01
Speaker 1: I read like a couple of weeks ago was that
39:05
Speaker 1: the Bucks wouldn't have to pay what he earns in
39:08
Speaker 1: another contract from another team. So I believe they're off
39:11
Speaker 1: the hook for forty two million bucks of the whatever
39:14
Speaker 1: like one thirteen that they owe them. I believe that's
39:17
Speaker 1: the way it breaks down. Yeah.
39:18
Speaker 9: Wow, that's crazy. Oh thanks, thanks a lot for breaking
39:21
Speaker 9: that down for me.
39:22
Speaker 1: You got it, ned, good stuff, man. We got Rob
39:24
Speaker 1: in Maine. He's on Fox Sports Radio. What's up, Rob?
39:29
Speaker 9: Hey, Yeah, I'm talking about here. You're talking earlier about
39:31
Speaker 9: the two thousand yards receiver. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's not
39:35
Speaker 9: going to happen. I got billions of dollars on that one, brother,
39:37
Speaker 9: Because the NFL keeps shortening the field, They're going to
39:40
Speaker 9: be doing half court here for too long. You know
39:42
Speaker 9: what I mean.
39:42
Speaker 1: You know that's a good point, right, the kickoffs, the
39:45
Speaker 1: touchbacks come back to the thirty five now, so yeah,
39:48
Speaker 1: I mean that adds up. The little thing's add up.
39:50
Speaker 9: Sure, Oh sure, fifteen over seventeen games not gonna happen,
39:54
Speaker 9: all Yeah.
39:55
Speaker 1: Yeah right Rob, No, good stuff, man, appreciate that.
