- 0:24Speaker 3: after a suspect rookie season, three major injuries in a week,
- 0:29Speaker 3: the football God's angry with the Seahawks, or or simply
- 0:35Speaker 3: the occupational hazard nobody wants to acknowledge. We'll talk about that,
- 0:39Speaker 3: and what did you take away from watching the Seahawks
- 0:42Speaker 3: and Titans in general on Fox? All of those things
- 0:45Speaker 3: and more Right about now settle in. It's our number
- 0:50Speaker 3: one sitting in the skepticism Ward, if you will welcome
- 1:00Speaker 3: in the beginning of another week of the Ben Malor Show.
- 1:05Speaker 2: We are in the air a reway.
- 1:09Speaker 3: Like teammates, as we are going to have an overnight
- 1:14Speaker 3: to remember, unless we don't coast to coast, border, the
- 1:17Speaker 3: border and beyond on the vast and zestfully powerful microphones
- 1:23Speaker 3: of fs are amminating live from the board, the sounding board,
- 1:30Speaker 3: gayaronteed human from the world famous Fox Sports radio studios,
- 1:36Speaker 3: where Blind Sea Bass and Rebecca La Ramf and Lisa
- 1:42Speaker 3: c in the common and even Queen rocks An agree
- 1:46Speaker 3: they're in lockstep with Malaprop, Guy ferg Dog and Alf
- 1:50Speaker 3: the Alien Opiner that we must feed the beast the
- 1:54Speaker 3: industrial complex of the hot take. And that's exactly what
- 1:59Speaker 3: we plan on doing here, and we will begin that
- 2:02Speaker 3: right about now, as we are less than a week
- 2:05Speaker 3: away from the big Malord meet and greet. We taking
- 2:08Speaker 3: place more on that later in the hour, if you're
- 2:10Speaker 3: so inclined to come out hang out with us, that'll
- 2:12Speaker 3: take place on Saturday. But our lead this hour from Nashville.
- 2:16Speaker 3: Was it a regular season game? Hell no it was not.
- 2:20Speaker 3: Was it on Fox?
- 2:22Speaker 2: Yes?
- 2:22Speaker 3: It was a Sunday night, lazy Sunday here in late August,
- 2:27Speaker 3: as the game between Seattle and Tennessee. They were wrangling
- 2:33Speaker 3: in the Music City. And that is where we will
- 2:36Speaker 3: begin the festivities for the brand new week as cam Ward. Now,
- 2:42Speaker 3: this guy was the number one overall pick in the
- 2:45Speaker 3: NFL draft of twenty twenty five, so cam Ward got
- 2:49Speaker 3: the second straight preseason start for the Flameheads. There after
- 2:54Speaker 3: a shaky beginning and uneven, which is a kind way
- 2:58Speaker 3: of saying bad performance. In the opener, he was given
- 3:02Speaker 3: another opportunity to calm people down. Everything's fine, nothing to
- 3:06Speaker 3: see here, Everything's all right. So how did the Tennessee
- 3:09Speaker 3: offense look with cam Ward under center against a hodgepodge
- 3:14Speaker 3: of backups? And you name it for Seattle? So if
- 3:19Speaker 3: you didn't watch it, it is an exhibition game, so
- 3:22Speaker 3: chances are you did not watch this game. Perhaps not
- 3:25Speaker 3: so the Titans. They did rally back, if you're inclined.
- 3:28Speaker 2: They did not.
- 3:29Speaker 3: Cover the spread I heard earlier, but they did come
- 3:31Speaker 3: back and win the game, as Seattle did nothing in
- 3:36Speaker 3: the second half of that game. So the Titans rallied
- 3:38Speaker 3: in garbage time and they end up winning. But the
- 3:41Speaker 3: story here is cam Ward, So let's get down to
- 3:43Speaker 3: the nitty gritty here. On cam Ward's award, he did
- 3:47Speaker 3: complete a few more passes than he did last week
- 3:51Speaker 3: or the previous game. I should have won exactly a
- 3:53Speaker 3: week but the previous exhibition game for the Tennessee Titans,
- 3:56Speaker 3: and that though, did not really move anything in terms
- 4:01Speaker 3: of the positive direction here.
- 4:03Speaker 2: If you saw the.
- 4:03Speaker 3: Game, cam Ward a little on the ropes, A little
- 4:07Speaker 3: on the ropes. You didn't get the vibe that this
- 4:10Speaker 3: is going the right direction at all, as he failed
- 4:14Speaker 3: to have any kind of a convincing performance for the
- 4:18Speaker 3: Tennessee football team here.
- 4:19Speaker 2: As the struggles roll on for cam Ward.
- 4:24Speaker 3: And the Tennessee offense, as they did play some starters
- 4:27Speaker 3: Robert Salak going with some starters there at the beginning
- 4:30Speaker 3: of the game, that they did much of anything, So.
- 4:33Speaker 2: That is a good jumping off point.
- 4:34Speaker 3: Let us discuss the question, does Titans quarterback cam Ward
- 4:42Speaker 3: get the its only preseason Hall pass? Or the other
- 4:48Speaker 3: option is that he has lost the privilege after a
- 4:52Speaker 3: really so so bad rookie season. So those are your options, right,
- 4:58Speaker 3: Does Titans quarterback cam Ward get the its only preseason
- 5:02Speaker 3: Hall pass? You're gonna give him the Hall pass? Or
- 5:05Speaker 3: has he lost that privilege after a rookie season which was.
- 5:09Speaker 2: Very forgettable, very very very forgettable.
- 5:12Speaker 3: So I've got leasing office, I've got thunderbolts and McDonald's
- 5:17Speaker 3: self serve soda machine, and we will.
- 5:20Speaker 2: Combine all of these things.
- 5:22Speaker 3: Together, and we're going to look at you a little
- 5:24Speaker 3: cross eyed, just a little cross eye to start the week.
- 5:27Speaker 3: So a on this side of the microphone, cam Ward,
- 5:31Speaker 3: was it a game played at the emotional level of
- 5:35Speaker 3: a regular season game? No, does cam Ward get a
- 5:37Speaker 3: Hall pass? Hell no, no hall pass. No hall pass
- 5:42Speaker 3: for cam.
- 5:42Speaker 2: Ward right now.
- 5:43Speaker 3: We don't hand those out, especially when you when you've
- 5:46Speaker 3: run nothing, and he is the personification of doing nothing
- 5:52Speaker 3: as an NFL quarterback.
- 5:54Speaker 2: Right, zero, zippo, So you don't get a Hall pass.
- 5:57Speaker 3: What exactly has cam Ward accomplished to earn the benefit
- 6:00Speaker 3: of the doubt. He was a questionable top pick, he
- 6:03Speaker 3: went out and played like he shouldn't have been the
- 6:05Speaker 3: top pick in the draft last year. And his signature moment,
- 6:09Speaker 3: and you can correct me if I'm wrong on this,
- 6:11Speaker 3: but I believe the signature moment of cam Ward as
- 6:14Speaker 3: an NFL player so far is the immortal quote. When
- 6:17Speaker 3: I asked about the Tennessee Titans offense, cam Ward last
- 6:21Speaker 3: season said, quote two words, we ask close, quote that's it.
- 6:26Speaker 3: That's the moment, that's the defining moment of cam Ward
- 6:30Speaker 3: as an NFL quarterback.
- 6:31Speaker 2: We ask, that's it.
- 6:34Speaker 3: That's all, which, also, unfortunately for him, doubles as his
- 6:37Speaker 3: scouting report at this particular moment in time.
- 6:41Speaker 2: It's not going well.
- 6:42Speaker 3: So awards play has been deeply underwhelming so far.
- 6:49Speaker 2: That's just the way it is.
- 6:50Speaker 3: Call like it is, and that's just the way he's playing.
- 6:54Speaker 3: He's itching closer. He's not there yet, but he's itching
- 6:57Speaker 3: closer and closer to the wrong side of the tracks
- 7:01Speaker 3: towards that charming little village up ahead called Bustville, USSA. Oh,
- 7:08Speaker 3: you don't want to go to Bustville. You need to
- 7:11Speaker 3: avoid Bustville at all costs. Do not go to Bustville.
- 7:15Speaker 2: Don't do it. You don't want to go there.
- 7:17Speaker 3: Now, he's not a permanent resident. He has been spotted.
- 7:21Speaker 3: Cam Ward has been spotted at the leasing office in Bustville, USA,
- 7:27Speaker 3: and then they've checked out a couple of places for him.
- 7:31Speaker 2: I have checked it out.
- 7:32Speaker 3: And then there's a showing coming up mid season for
- 7:36Speaker 3: cam Ward. They're going to show him this charming two
- 7:39Speaker 3: bedroom condo and it's right down the hallway from Josh Rosen,
- 7:45Speaker 3: Zach Wilson and Jake Locker and really good, really good Bustville, USA.
- 7:52Speaker 3: Quarterback floor right there. That's some legends. Now on the
- 7:55Speaker 3: upper floor you've got JaMarcus Russell and in the cafeteria.
- 7:59Speaker 3: They only serve purple drink. That's all they serve in
- 8:02Speaker 3: the cafeteria.
- 8:03Speaker 2: I don't know what.
- 8:05Speaker 3: Listen, here we go the talk about Robert Saltha, this
- 8:08Speaker 3: Robert sala of that. We'll get to it in a minute.
- 8:10Speaker 3: On the broadcast, over the top praise of Robert Salad,
- 8:13Speaker 3: you'd almost think he was a good head coach and
- 8:15Speaker 3: not the guy that there's a stiff with the Jets.
- 8:17Speaker 3: Here's the thing Tennessee is counting on. I think I'm
- 8:19Speaker 3: wrong on this. They're counting on cam Ward morphing into
- 8:24Speaker 3: some kind of franchise quarterback. But the preseason performance or
- 8:31Speaker 3: lack thereof, you don't get an excuse.
- 8:33Speaker 2: You don't get a Hall Pass.
- 8:35Speaker 3: Sorry, not sorry, that's only given out to proven players.
- 8:38Speaker 3: Cam Ward ain't that. He hasn't done Diddley squat as
- 8:42Speaker 3: an NFL player yet to earn that kind of title. Now, meanwhile,
- 8:48Speaker 3: as that was a clucker and clock, clock clock, we
- 8:52Speaker 3: move ahead to the Seattle side of things. Seattle, in
- 8:56Speaker 3: this exhibition game played relatively well for a stretch in
- 9:00Speaker 3: the first half and then did nothing in the second half.
- 9:04Speaker 3: If you want to break down an individual exhibition gear.
- 9:07Speaker 3: But the story here is not the game itself. The
- 9:09Speaker 3: story is the week that was for Seattle, the three
- 9:15Speaker 3: major injuries you've got. If you go down the big
- 9:18Speaker 3: board here you have rookie safety Bud Clark, a second
- 9:22Speaker 3: round draft pick, Bud Clark, bye bye, a broken ankle,
- 9:25Speaker 3: snap crackle pop that sounds bad. That happened on the
- 9:29Speaker 3: first offensive play for the Tennessee Titans as Tony Pollard
- 9:34Speaker 3: a nine yard run and that led to snap crackle
- 9:37Speaker 3: pop for Bud Clark, not his real first name, and
- 9:42Speaker 3: they put him in one of those air cast thing
- 9:44Speaker 3: of a jigs there the vacuum splint as his leg
- 9:47Speaker 3: was immobilized, taking him off the field there, so he
- 9:50Speaker 3: was out.
- 9:51Speaker 2: And then but wait, there's more.
- 9:53Speaker 3: The head coach of the Seattle football team, Mike McDonald,
- 9:57Speaker 3: said that Bud Clark will miss multiple months, a substantial
- 10:02Speaker 3: chunk of his rookie season, and he might not play
- 10:05Speaker 3: at all this year, depending on how the injury rehabs
- 10:09Speaker 3: and how he does there. So Seattle already lost a
- 10:12Speaker 3: wide receiver this week, the Great Jake Bobo. They lost
- 10:16Speaker 3: an offensive lineman in someone named Mason Richmond, who was
- 10:20Speaker 3: injured against the Tennessee Titans. So that's not one, that's
- 10:23Speaker 3: not two. That's three serious injuries for the Seattle Seahawks
- 10:27Speaker 3: in this week. They had some joint practices earlier in Nashville,
- 10:32Speaker 3: so that's it. Three big injuries. The question here is this,
- 10:35Speaker 3: You've got three injuries, some bigger than others. So here's
- 10:40Speaker 3: the question. Foot ball gods angry, the football god's angry
- 10:46Speaker 3: with the Seahawks, or simply the occupational hazard that nobody
- 10:53Speaker 3: wants to acknowledge when you play in the NFL. So
- 10:57Speaker 3: they say that football is a game of injuries. Sports
- 11:00Speaker 3: a game of inches, Football a game of inches. But
- 11:03Speaker 3: right now, for the Seattle Seahawks, after a minutes long
- 11:07Speaker 3: deliberation of the available information, we have determined it's a
- 11:12Speaker 3: charmatic situation. Karma karma, karma, karma, It's all about karma.
- 11:17Speaker 2: Let me make my case.
- 11:18Speaker 3: You've got not one, not too but three major injuries
- 11:22Speaker 3: for the reigning Super Bowl champions in a single week,
- 11:25Speaker 3: just a couple weeks before the start of the regular season,
- 11:27Speaker 3: capped off by the big one, safety Bud Clark, getting
- 11:32Speaker 3: carted off in an air cast. You had the head
- 11:34Speaker 3: coach of the Seattle Seahawks Mike McDonald openly using the
- 11:38Speaker 3: word heartbreaking. He used the word heartbreaking. That's the head
- 11:43Speaker 3: coach of the Seattle Seahawks using the word heartbreaking. And
- 11:47Speaker 3: the foot ball world is left wondering if this is
- 11:51Speaker 3: just your standard occupational hazard or full blown cosmic karma.
- 11:59Speaker 3: And I think we know the end to that. As
- 12:01Speaker 3: the arrow is pointing there. You can talk all you
- 12:04Speaker 3: want and.
- 12:05Speaker 2: Talk talk talk talk, talk talk.
- 12:08Speaker 3: Talk about all the players need to be bubble wrapped
- 12:11Speaker 3: and all that.
- 12:12Speaker 2: You can't bubble wrap the players. You can't. You can't
- 12:16Speaker 2: do that.
- 12:17Speaker 3: However, when the secondary, which was already a weak spot,
- 12:20Speaker 3: and this is a tough spot to be in for
- 12:22Speaker 3: the Seattle football team, then they're gonna have to play
- 12:25Speaker 3: against Puka Nakua, a total stud, Devonte Adams and the
- 12:31Speaker 3: Rams offense, and they they're gonna be doing auditions for fans.
- 12:36Speaker 3: The twelves will come down and play. The way things
- 12:40Speaker 3: are going here, the secondary is already tattered. We haven't
- 12:42Speaker 3: even gotten to the regular season here, and now you've
- 12:45Speaker 3: lost a premium second round draft. Pick a plug and
- 12:48Speaker 3: play safety who is gonna slide in there and be
- 12:51Speaker 3: of a rotational safety that was gonna be a big
- 12:54Speaker 3: part of your team and contribute immediately. And now this
- 12:57Speaker 3: Bud's for you. No, it's not, because this Bud Bud
- 13:00Speaker 3: Clark is out likely three months, if not the entire
- 13:05Speaker 3: NFL season. So he's out and you look around. He's like, Okay,
- 13:10Speaker 3: she lost this guy. He was supposed to be a
- 13:11Speaker 3: big part of your secondary Bud Clark. The coach uses
- 13:14Speaker 3: the word the H word heartbreaking to describe it. The
- 13:18Speaker 3: football world is left sitting there and they're like, well,
- 13:22Speaker 3: wait a minute, here, this is this is not just
- 13:26Speaker 3: a couple of things here. This is a thunderbolt, a
- 13:29Speaker 3: bunch of thunderbolts coming down here. And the football guys
- 13:34Speaker 3: not so subtle, are they, with their thunderbolts raining down
- 13:37Speaker 3: from the heavens here. So between writing that bogus two
- 13:41Speaker 3: point conversion, we all know it, and this is more
- 13:44Speaker 3: proof that we were on the right side of history.
- 13:46Speaker 3: That these injuries piling up for the Seattle Seahawks are
- 13:50Speaker 3: proof that they made a faustian bargain. They made a
- 13:54Speaker 3: deal with the devil. They got the little two point conversion.
- 13:57Speaker 3: They didn't earn. They were given that and head home field, etc.
- 14:01Speaker 2: Etc.
- 14:01Speaker 3: Et cetera. And then the Rams were the better team.
- 14:05Speaker 3: They were given a gift Seattle buy the football karma gods.
- 14:10Speaker 3: And now the gods are saying, well, you got to
- 14:12Speaker 3: pay up the damage on that.
- 14:13Speaker 2: Okay, we'll pay up the damage on that.
- 14:15Speaker 3: And not just the fact that they they had the
- 14:18Speaker 3: bogus two point conversion, which I see JJ and Ritten
- 14:22Speaker 3: and Nostredidas and crying, Craig nodding in agreement.
- 14:24Speaker 1: There.
- 14:25Speaker 3: In addition to that, you've got the fact that they
- 14:28Speaker 3: tried to sign a guy facing lifetime in prison. And
- 14:32Speaker 3: the only reason they didn't sign Terry on Arnold is
- 14:35Speaker 3: because the NFL stepped in at the eleventh hour and said, Okay,
- 14:39Speaker 3: you can sign him, but we're going to put him
- 14:42Speaker 3: on the commissioner's exemplst so he won't be able to
- 14:45Speaker 3: practice with you or play with you on your roster.
- 14:49Speaker 3: So and now this it's all connected. It is all connected,
- 14:54Speaker 3: all of these things, all of them. And so Seattle
- 14:58Speaker 3: flirting with disaster here with the injuries all over the place.
- 15:02Speaker 3: They don't have depth in the secondary. They're not in
- 15:05Speaker 3: a position of strength. It's a problem. It's a problem,
- 15:08Speaker 3: and it was Confucius, I believe, who famously said karma
- 15:12Speaker 3: is a bach and right now Seattle is learning that
- 15:16Speaker 3: lesson again as the bill for Seattle's good fortune, the
- 15:21Speaker 3: success that they had has officially come due. And with
- 15:25Speaker 3: Sam Donald returning back to the old Sam Donald, this
- 15:28Speaker 3: is going to be a long year. I would be
- 15:31Speaker 3: surprised if they make the playoffs at this moment in
- 15:33Speaker 3: time today, you'd have to say it's a long shot
- 15:36Speaker 3: based on all the injuries. No secondary, you know, Sam
- 15:39Speaker 3: Donald's going to fall back apart and be the old
- 15:41Speaker 3: Sam Donald we all know and love, and they.
- 15:44Speaker 2: Are screwed it.
- 15:46Speaker 3: I mean, my god, how fast reality slaps you in
- 15:50Speaker 3: the face there in the Pacific Northwest. All right, now,
- 15:52Speaker 3: last word to the big picture we go. So week
- 15:57Speaker 3: two in the books, the final exhibition game in week
- 16:00Speaker 3: two in Island game, as we've been talking about here,
- 16:04Speaker 3: Tennessee and Seattle was on Fox, so we checked it
- 16:07Speaker 3: out there. The question though, to put the ball on this,
- 16:12Speaker 3: the question what did you take away from watching the
- 16:15Speaker 3: Seahawks and Titans on Fox? You had to watch so
- 16:21Speaker 3: watching the broadcast, now, Jonathan Vilma was the color commentator,
- 16:24Speaker 3: there was a fair amount of Julian Edelman, who did
- 16:27Speaker 3: the pre and the halftime and did pop up for
- 16:30Speaker 3: a stretch during the broadcast. There and Vilma specifically and
- 16:35Speaker 3: Edelman when they were together, they were serving up.
- 16:40Speaker 2: A combination.
- 16:41Speaker 3: They had sunshine and rainbows and it was sunshine. Gallons
- 16:46Speaker 3: of sunshine is what it was. There, every coach involved
- 16:50Speaker 3: in the game, brilliant mensa, every coach of mensa. Every
- 16:56Speaker 3: player outstanding. I learned that from watching the televi broadcast.
- 17:00Speaker 3: Every player was outstanding. Every offseason move was just who
- 17:04Speaker 3: the team wanted. They didn't get anyone they didn't want.
- 17:08Speaker 3: They didn't lose anyone they didn't want to lose. It
- 17:11Speaker 3: was just a perfect offseason. Was it was spectacular. Robert Salah,
- 17:16Speaker 3: despite his record on Pro Football Reference, a humanitarian, an
- 17:21Speaker 3: amazing man, a man among boys. And Robert Salas good.
- 17:27Speaker 3: How about Brian Dayball, fantastic. He's the OC of the Titans.
- 17:32Speaker 3: Oh my god, what a dream team. Yeah, don't look
- 17:35Speaker 3: at Brian Dayball's record with the Giants. What an amazing coach.
- 17:38Speaker 3: Oh how lucky are the Tennessee Titans to have these
- 17:41Speaker 3: two geniuses? And yeah, you just have to overlook the
- 17:44Speaker 3: flawed resume.
- 17:45Speaker 2: You have to do that.
- 17:46Speaker 3: You have to forget all the baggage that they both have,
- 17:48Speaker 3: Forget why anybody was available this offseason in the first place.
- 17:52Speaker 3: Just overlook all that stuff. And according to the broadcast,
- 17:56Speaker 3: and I'm just going off the broadcast here, everybody is
- 17:59Speaker 3: headed directly for Canton, Ohio. They're all just great. They're
- 18:03Speaker 3: building that winning formula. It's just going to be wonderful.
- 18:06Speaker 3: All the players this offseason, I learned from the broadcast,
- 18:09Speaker 3: worked harder than ever before. So good for them. They
- 18:14Speaker 3: learn more than they've ever learned before. Amazing, just freaking great.
- 18:19Speaker 3: The Titans and the Seahawks learn more than they've ever
- 18:21Speaker 3: learned before. Oh I also learned the Seahawks have that
- 18:23Speaker 3: championship pedigree.
- 18:25Speaker 2: Yeah, they have that. I can't believe it. Amazing.
- 18:29Speaker 3: Annoid all jotted this down on my NOTESPP. All the
- 18:32Speaker 3: players showed up in the greatest shape of their life.
- 18:35Speaker 3: Thank God for that, the greatest shape of their life.
- 18:39Speaker 2: How amazing is that?
- 18:40Speaker 3: And somehow both teams again acquired every single player they
- 18:44Speaker 3: really wanted. Jonathan Willma in particular, I thought I had
- 18:48Speaker 3: gone to Mickey D's. He was like a McDonald's self
- 18:51Speaker 3: serve soda machine, which they're phasing out, and that'll go
- 18:54Speaker 3: over well, I'm sure, yes, one of the few perks
- 18:57Speaker 3: of going to McDonald's.
- 18:58Speaker 2: Let's get rid of it.
- 19:00Speaker 1: Sure, why not?
- 19:00Speaker 3: Anyway, the McDonald's self serve soda machine. Jonathan Film a
- 19:04Speaker 3: very similar except his version of the McDonald's self serve
- 19:09Speaker 3: soda machine was malfunctioning, dispensing triple syrup, extra surrupy, extra syrupy.
- 19:16Speaker 3: Everything was extra sweet, bubbly and positive.
- 19:21Speaker 2: And one of the odds. I mean.
- 19:23Speaker 3: Meanwhile, ye had Kenny Albert, who was great, mister smooth operator,
- 19:27Speaker 3: mister play by play guy, Kenny Albert. Is he a
- 19:30Speaker 3: friend of the show. Yeah, he's a friend of the show.
- 19:32Speaker 3: We love Kenny Albert. He's great. However, he was trying

- 19:46Speaker 3: so much a broadcast as it was a Seahawks Titans

- 25:58Speaker 6: Strip club super close to exactly.
- 26:00Speaker 3: Yeah, they would go there, and we would as high
- 26:03Speaker 3: school kids, we would sit outside the strip club and
- 26:06Speaker 3: wait for them to come out. I was still at
- 26:11Speaker 3: the time the strippers or the oh well, I mean,
- 26:14Speaker 3: we wish the strippers, but it was the players.

- 26:46Speaker 3: servants like you faithfully working for us on the weekends. Yeah,
- 26:50Speaker 3: good job by Robbie. I did attempt weed man hippie.
- 26:55Speaker 3: I called weed man hippie pbably five times over the weekend.
- 26:58Speaker 3: To try to get him on the podcast, and he
- 27:01Speaker 3: wanted to do it. And of course the problem with
- 27:04Speaker 3: the wee man is he doesn't want to leave his house.
- 27:05Speaker 2: He's having issues.
- 27:06Speaker 3: He's got this Obama phone, but it's in like an
- 27:08Speaker 3: old Obama phone. It's not updated, it's full of it's
- 27:11Speaker 3: got no room. So you have to download a couple
- 27:14Speaker 3: of things like the zoom ap and some other stuff
- 27:16Speaker 3: to be able to do the podcast.
- 27:17Speaker 2: And so I told him, I says, download it. We'll
- 27:19Speaker 2: do it, no problem. Yeah, I don't know. It's not working.
- 27:24Speaker 2: I don't know this.
- 27:26Speaker 3: And I said, listen, I give you all day Friday. Okay,
- 27:28Speaker 3: all day, you get that thing. I said, okay, I'll
- 27:30Speaker 3: do it. So I call him up Friday evening.
- 27:34Speaker 2: Oh it's not working. I'm not stupid. It's not working,
- 27:37Speaker 2: you know the whole thing.
- 27:38Speaker 7: I'm not stupid, I swear.
- 27:40Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 27:40Speaker 2: Yeah. So I said, okay, did you go to the store.
- 27:42Speaker 2: What did they tell you? Well? I didn't go to
- 27:44Speaker 2: the store. I just wanted to do it myself.
- 27:46Speaker 4: You know.
- 27:46Speaker 3: I was like, but you told me it hasn't worked
- 27:48Speaker 3: in months. Yeah, I know, but I I I'm smart.
- 27:51Speaker 2: I can do it. I can figure it out. You know,
- 27:53Speaker 2: it got the thirty percent to download.
- 27:56Speaker 3: I said, okay, I said, listen, I'll give you. I'll
- 27:58Speaker 3: give you till another day. Down to the store and
- 28:01Speaker 3: get that thing fixed. I said, weed, man, I want

- 28:05Speaker 3: He said, okay, I'm gonna go to the store. So
- 28:07Speaker 3: I call him up on Saturday Saturday night, I say.
- 28:10Speaker 2: Hey, you go to the store.
- 28:12Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 28:12Speaker 2: I went to the store. Is it does the phone
- 28:14Speaker 2: work now? They couldn't fetch it. He told me I
- 28:17Speaker 2: needed a new phone. I can't afford a new phone.
- 28:20Speaker 3: End of the whole thing. I don't think he went
- 28:22Speaker 3: to the store, though. I think he's full of crap.
- 28:25Speaker 3: I don't think he went to the store. Oh, he's
- 28:29Speaker 3: the way he said it. It was kind of a
- 28:31Speaker 3: quick like I went there like you know how if
- 28:33Speaker 3: he had gone there, he would have given more in detail.
- 28:37Speaker 2: Yeah. I get the sense that there was some shenanigans
- 28:40Speaker 2: going on. All yeah, I'm onto some.
- 28:43Speaker 3: The good news is that Robbie is wonderful and Robbie's
- 28:45Speaker 3: always available. We're really screwed. Once Robbie gets a social
- 28:49Speaker 3: life man or we cooked. We got nothing once Robbie,
- 28:52Speaker 3: you know, goes out there and starts partying hardy.
- 28:54Speaker 2: And all that. My god, well we'll just have nothing.
- 28:58Speaker 3: On that podcast Nature rights in he says, cannot wait,

- 29:12Speaker 3: Yeah, Natron, he's at these things every year. I love Natron,
- 29:15Speaker 3: except for that giant sat that he wears. That's the
- 29:17Speaker 3: only problem there, JJ from Renton. No reaction from JJ
- 29:21Speaker 3: and Renton. On the monologue about the Seahawks, he says,
- 29:24Speaker 3: Deshaun Watson his garbage and everyone knows it. By the way,
- 29:27Speaker 3: he says, Portland has great strip clubs. That's from JJ
- 29:31Speaker 3: and Wrinton. I've never been to a Portland strip club,
- 29:33Speaker 3: so I would not be able to tell you. I
- 29:35Speaker 3: do know years ago, and I don't know if this
- 29:36Speaker 3: is true anymore. When I was doing stuff with baseball players,
- 29:40Speaker 3: they always said the top spot on the circuit was Montreal,
- 29:46Speaker 3: that that far and away.
- 29:48Speaker 2: Was better than anywhere else.
- 29:49Speaker 3: They had the top ballet in Montreal, and that the Expos.
- 29:53Speaker 2: There used to be a team called the Expos that.
- 29:55Speaker 3: Played there, and they had a home field advantage because
- 29:57Speaker 3: the players would be tired because they loved the players
- 30:00Speaker 3: loved the ballet. They love to go out and see
- 30:02Speaker 3: the ballet dancers jump up and down.
- 30:03Speaker 2: And all that.
- 30:04Speaker 6: They didn't know they were so sophisticated.
- 30:06Speaker 3: They're very talented young women and very very gifted in
- 30:09Speaker 3: so many ways.
- 30:10Speaker 2: Ferg Dog rights.
- 30:11Speaker 3: He says, when you make a deal with the devil,
- 30:13Speaker 3: it always comes at a cost, as Seattle's learning, the
- 30:17Speaker 3: NFL needs to teach these cheaters a lesson by putting
- 30:21Speaker 3: a big fat asterisk on their Lombardi. Let everyone know
- 30:26Speaker 3: the twenty twenty five Seahawks sold their soul to the devil.
- 30:31Speaker 3: Late Night drug Tester writes in could call on good
- 30:34Speaker 3: comment by Ferg Dog. Late Night Drug Tester says, So,
- 30:37Speaker 3: if the Seahawks are able to get Sasquatch to sign,
- 30:41Speaker 3: will he play tight end or roving linebacker? I think
- 30:46Speaker 3: of Sasquatch as a nose tackle and special team savant
- 30:51Speaker 3: trying to block kicks, and he won't have to jump
- 30:54Speaker 3: over the line of scrimmage.
- 30:55Speaker 2: Because how tall a sasquatch? Are we looking at? Eight
- 30:58Speaker 2: feet nine feet tall?
- 30:59Speaker 4: Yeah?
- 30:59Speaker 2: Maybe?
- 31:00Speaker 3: Yeah, So if you've got like an eight foot or
- 31:02Speaker 3: a nine foot sasquatch, just have him stand up right
- 31:05Speaker 3: there and knock.
- 31:06Speaker 2: It out of the park, you fem in.
- 31:08Speaker 3: That's right, you're feed me in Chicago rights since the
- 31:10Speaker 3: day Maller a plus and some Ben and Jerry's chocolate
- 31:14Speaker 3: fudge ice cream. On that monologue, the Titans are a joke.
- 31:18Speaker 3: Tannehill would be in their ring of honor? Uh is
- 31:22Speaker 3: Tannehill in the ring of an He might be in
- 31:24Speaker 3: the Ring of n I don't think he's in there yet.
- 31:26Speaker 3: Might Charlie from Wisconsin writes in Charlie disappeared for seven
- 31:32Speaker 3: or eight months, and then all of a sudden pops
- 31:34Speaker 3: back up. He says, while everyone was at the meet
- 31:37Speaker 3: and greet, I got to meet Alf and Bill Miller.
- 31:40Speaker 2: Oh look at that.
- 31:40Speaker 3: I got my hat on, I got my jacket, I'm
- 31:42Speaker 3: wearing to tie. I'm looking good. I'm looking good. Analog
- 31:45Speaker 3: Al rights in he says, already did under on the
- 31:49Speaker 3: Sea chickens. Guess I have to add to it. That
- 31:52Speaker 3: is from Analog Al. The Baltimore Freeloader account. Baltimore Freeloader
- 31:58Speaker 3: account says that time Time island game was trash. I
- 32:03Speaker 3: think Jonathan Vilma just uttered another cliche. It certainly didn't
- 32:08Speaker 3: compare to the Friday Fifth Hour that was pure entertainment.
- 32:13Speaker 3: Is it true that Marlin's Man loves mascots as much
- 32:18Speaker 3: as TV color analysts love cliches. Yeah, Marlin's Man definitely
- 32:24Speaker 3: a big supporter of the mascot industrial complex. He is
- 32:30Speaker 3: what a life that guy lives. My God is so
- 32:33Speaker 3: lucky to have him as a listener to our show.
- 32:35Speaker 3: The Great Marlins Man, celebrity fan who goes to all
- 32:37Speaker 3: these games. It sits right behind on plate VIP access
- 32:41Speaker 3: and he gets inside of information. Believe it or not,
- 32:44Speaker 3: Marlin's Man people tell him things that he might not
- 32:47Speaker 3: need to know. I can't repeat those things because I'm
- 32:50Speaker 3: in the ring of trust. I can't get out of
- 32:52Speaker 3: the ring of trust. I want to stay in the
- 32:53Speaker 3: ring of trust. As far as Jonathan Vilma and the cliches,
- 32:57Speaker 3: holy crap, oh crap, can you please like occasionally try
- 33:03Speaker 3: to avoid the cliche, just do something original? My goodness,
- 33:09Speaker 3: it was. It was unbelievable. It was non stop, and
- 33:13Speaker 3: I thought I was like, just might as well have
- 33:15Speaker 3: been reading sportscliche dot Com, which is a thing, and
- 33:19Speaker 3: I didn't need to do that. Watch the broadcast and
- 33:24Speaker 3: it's like everything, Oh I liked I like this player.
- 33:26Speaker 3: I liked what I saw from this player. Yeah, and
- 33:28Speaker 3: I'm happy the way these guys performed. They really went
- 33:30Speaker 3: out to Let's go to the phones. Let's say hello
- 33:32Speaker 3: to hollering James. Oh, I'm a glutton for punishment. He's

- 34:00Speaker 6: Oh?
- 34:01Speaker 7: Lucky on Tony?
- 34:04Speaker 3: So okay, Jesus, what do we what are we in
- 34:09Speaker 3: elementary school now?
- 34:10Speaker 6: After Susela is in the house.
- 34:12Speaker 3: All right, so let me let me ask you here
- 34:14Speaker 3: right now, let's get to the bottom. Did you see
- 34:16Speaker 3: your boy Justin Jefferson go viral over the weekend? What
- 34:20Speaker 3: do you think Justin?
- 34:22Speaker 2: Did you see this?
- 34:22Speaker 4: By the way, James, I see a little bit of Justin,
- 34:27Speaker 4: but I saw more Jefferson on the sideline all right, Well.
- 34:30Speaker 3: He didn't play, that's why he saw the sign. So
- 34:32Speaker 3: here's the question. You're my Viking insider. What did Justin
- 34:36Speaker 3: Jefferson do on the sidelines to go viral during the
- 34:40Speaker 3: Vikings exhibition game over the weekend?
- 34:43Speaker 2: Go ahead? What do you think he did?
- 34:45Speaker 3: He trying to do shuffle, but the guys shovel up
- 34:49Speaker 3: because the life is lost.
- 34:53Speaker 2: That's not anywhere close to what happened. What happened? All right? So,
- 34:58Speaker 2: oh my god, James, you're my Viking inside.
- 35:00Speaker 3: So Justin Jeffers the question, All right, Justin Jefferson was
- 35:05Speaker 3: on the sidelines. What was he wearing on the sidelines
- 35:08Speaker 3: to the preseason game that ended up going viral?
- 35:11Speaker 2: What did he what was he wearing? That's right?
- 35:17Speaker 3: In fact, they say the necklace, the diamond chains overall,
- 35:24Speaker 3: woman's best friend?
- 35:25Speaker 2: Are you saying as a woman? No, here's the thing.
- 35:29Speaker 3: A million over a million dollars, James, But you don't
- 35:35Speaker 3: have a ring like Carson Wentz that taking a shot
- 35:39Speaker 3: at Justin Jefferson.
- 35:40Speaker 2: Yeah, he was sporting over one million dollars. I'm trying
