  Speaker 2: But we're gonna lead and there are some options here.
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: I was at the fork in the road and I said, hey,
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: play the hits, ma Man, play the hits. Is in
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: one of our big shots back in the day, like
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: to say so. Our lead this hour is from phil Leddelphia,
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: where they are preparing for a parade, which means there'll
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: be a lot of people. They're estimating a million people
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: will be at the Eagles parade on.
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: Friday in Philly.
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: And how many people will be climbing buildings, will be
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: climbing street.
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: Towers, you know, the signals and whatnot? A lot?
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: Will we get what we got last time when an
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: Eagle fan famously took a piece of a horse of feces.
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: And decided to have a nice meal. Will we get that?
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: I don't know. But the aftermath of the Eagles winning
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: the Lombardy it still playing out. Everyone's got a hot
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: take now. Jalen Hurts, who won the MVP, only got
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: twelve of the votes though, so it was not an
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: overwhelming MVP, but they still call them the MVP of
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: the Super Bowl. And he dazzled us with some pearls
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: of wisdom. And we're all about parsing the words of
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: people in sports. Yes, a lot of wisdom, a lot
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: of wisdom. You're so if you didn't hear what he
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: had to say, perhaps not. Jalen Hurts, he just won
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: the Super Bowl. You're at the top of the mountain.
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: You're the pinnacle of your sport.
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: There.
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: So, Jalen Hurts says that despite winning the Super Bowl,
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: that he is motivated by what happened a couple of
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: years ago in the Super Bowl when the Eagles were
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: on the wrong side of the scoreboard.
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: Take a list.
• 5:30
  Speaker 4: His whole year has been more magnifying to me in
• 5:32
  Speaker 4: terms of my desire to win, because I kind of
• 5:35
  Speaker 4: learned like how I processed everything after the game and
• 5:38
  Speaker 4: where my heart was.
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: It's like the joy of winning.
• 5:41
  Speaker 4: It still had no comparison to the pain.
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: Of losing it and so on.
• 5:50
  Speaker 4: Those things are still going to continue to motivate me
• 5:54
  Speaker 4: and drive me internally.
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: Okay, So the last part is what we call in
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: the big is the money quote, right, you degree, I
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: think you'd agree money quote he said, it's like the
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: joy of winning, it still had no comparison to the
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: pain of losing.
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: And that was the quote right there. So let us
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: discuss the question.
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: Jalen Hurts says, the joy of the Eagles Super Bowl
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: victory had no comparison to the agony of the twenty
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: twenty three loss to Kansas City.
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: So how does that sound to you?
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: All right?
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: Now, I'm gonna go first. I've got professor Ayahuasca and
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: DeLorean and we will combine all of these things together
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: and we will live to tell the tale. We will
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: live to tell the tale. So A, I consider this
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: your honor, and you are the juror, you're the judge.
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: I consider this to be corroborating evidence the long standing hypothesis.
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: If you've been with me riding shotgown here in the
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: overnight all these years, you know one of my many
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: my grandpres was at Michigosa. One of my things I've
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: come up with over the years that I believe it
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: has been confirmed now by Jalen Hurts. The better story
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: is always in the losing locker room. And as my
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: professor back in the day, a guy named Jim McKay
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: this broadcaster wide world of sports, and he taught me
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: spanning the globe, the thrill of victory, the agony of defeat,
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: the human drama of athletic competition, and losers are always
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: more compelling than winners.
• 7:31
  Speaker 3: I love losers.
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: I love talking about losers. I love goofing on losers.
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: I'm all about losers. I am right. In sports, it's
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: not real tragedy. You know real tragedies. We know what
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: real tragedy is, right, you live your life, you lose friends,
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: you lose family, you know, people get sick. That's real tragedy.
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: But sports tragedy is much more enjoyable to talk about
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: than triumph. There's a million people I don't even kiss
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: your ass when you win, and when you lose, that
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: heartbreak that is the common denominator in a great story.
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: And Kansas City's a living testament to I know we're
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: talking about Jalen Hurts here, but leading into the Super Bowl, it.
• 8:15
  Speaker 3: Was all about dynasty.
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: Mahomes is Tom Brady, Andy Reid is Bill Belichick, and
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: they go out there and vide the vomit comet in
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: the Super Bowl. And now Mahomes is a bum my
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: colleague Rob Parker wants Andy Reid to leave the Chiefs.
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: He should be out as coach of the chief and
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: so all of that because they lost the game.
• 8:33
  Speaker 3: But again, losing is a great motivator.
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: And Jalen Hurts gave a refresher course here that that
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: Super Bowl a couple of years back still stings and
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: still motivates him, and that even though he's now a
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: winner and all you guys will kiss his ass and say, hey,
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: won the Super Bowl, he was the MVP. For him,
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: He's gonna be fueled by the loss more. And that's
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: how it always is, all right, Now, I mentioned the
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: Chiefs go to Kansas City, where the Chiefs are still
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: licking their wounds after being mollywopped in the Super Bowl,
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: and they have now.
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: Apparently set a deadline, a.
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: Point of demarcation for Travis Kelcey to either poop or
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: get off the pot and has to make a decision
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: the ultimatum regarding his NFL future. I know you're dying
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: to know where Taylor Swist's boyfriend.
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: Is going to go?
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: Will he go follow her around write music? Will he
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: do crappy podcasts? Will he do cheese ball game shows?
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: Or be a horrible actor? What path will Travis Kelsey day?
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: So if Kelsey chooses to say bye bye and retire,
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: the Chiefs are in that position, they've got to find
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: somebody else right there. They need you to know. So
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: they've said, if you're going to retire, you have to
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: announce that by March fourteenth. That's what they say. Based
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: on the deadline. The Chiefs are going to give Kelsey
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: one month. Right, Today's Valentine's Day, which you know me
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: and Coup aren't that excited about. Lorraine is very excited
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: about it. You know, we're like, whoa, Yeah, she's fired up,
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: and she's like, oh yea, everyone's gonna kiss my ass today.
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: It's Valentine's Day, all right? Anyway, all right, So thumbs
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: up or thumbs down on Chiefs tight end Travis Kelsey
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: given a deadline to decide his future.
• 10:23
  Speaker 3: Mean this talk he's gonna retire.
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: So I'm gonna give this two thumbs up, two thumbs up,
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: big thumbs two thumbs up. So uh, really, what the
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: Chiefs are saying is, don't don't do an Andrew Luck.
• 10:35
  Speaker 3: Don't screw us over.
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: Remember Andrew Luck when he famously quit on the Colts
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: that loser Andrew Luck right before the season started, like
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: two weeks before the season.
• 10:43
  Speaker 3: What a douche.
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: And so the Chiefs are like, listen, do it the
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: proper way, do it the way it's supposed to be done.
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: Don't screw us over. And that's all they're asking. And
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: it seems perfectly fair to me and Kelsey. For the
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: next month, he has no responsibility. He can go out
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: to the Amazon and drink some ayahuasca and do some
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: soul searching with Taylor Swift.
• 11:05
  Speaker 3: Or go shake it off in Rhode Island or whatever.
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: But if he checks out, Kansas City's got to have
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: to fill the blank spot that they're gonna have on
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: their bingo card. And they also don't want to pay Kelsey.
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: This is really about money, because a month from now
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: is March fourteenth, and on March fifteenth, we are told,
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: as we understand it here, that Kelsey has a roster
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: bonus of like eleven millions, So they don't want to
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: get on the hook.
• 11:31
  Speaker 3: God forbid.
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: You know, a NFL team with billions pays an extra
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: eleven million. But the point is it's the grown up
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: way to handle things. You're gonna retire in that business,
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: you take months off and you say that's it. I'm done.
• 11:44
  Speaker 3: I'm leaving all right now, last word, So we have trades.
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: It's a queer time.
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: Of the year.
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: The football is a year round sport. Now it doesn't
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: just about the games. It's the conversation which goes year round.
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: With God bless the NFL, because otherwise we'd be talking NBA.
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: My God.
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: The NFL conversation usually happens we're getting ready for the
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: scouting combine, which is always a highlight the underwear Olympics.
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: Who doesn't like that?
• 12:09
  Speaker 3: And then we have the wave of free agency. There's
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: a little bit.
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: Of a lull, but then the NFL Draft happens, and
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: then there's like another wave of roster cuts, and there's
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: offseason mini camps, so it's always.
• 12:20
  Speaker 3: Something going on. But one of the big names.
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: If you've been paying attention, that is on the radar
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: and could be coming to an NFL.
• 12:28
  Speaker 3: Team near you is Cooper Cup on the l A R.
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: I am.
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: Apparently he can no longer ram it all day and
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: ram it all night. The Rams looking to unload Cooper
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: Cup now an NFL scout. I was reading this earlier
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: and I wanted to share this with the class. So
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: an NFL scout says that the Rams wide out Cooper
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: Cup is still a number one or a number two
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: wide receiver for almost any team in the league. Question,
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: how do you assess that statement? The Cooper Cup who
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: is available. He's on the auctioning block right now. He
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: can be yours if the price is right, and this
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: scouting and they'll put their name on it. They never do,
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: but says, hey, this guy's still a number one or
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: number two receiver in the NFL. So, first of all,
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: I love the player. However, however, on the mallor scouting bureau,
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: the Malor scouting Bureau, no way on God's Green Earth
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: is Cooper Cup a number one receiver. And if anything,
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: he's in the suburbs. He's in the verbs as a
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: number two receiver. He's a borderline guy. I have him
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: on my Malor scouting Bureau report as a number three
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: wide receiver at this point. Here's why, right, in order
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: for him to go to high to or a number one,
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: you would have to go to a garage.
• 13:52
  Speaker 3: Actually you don't even have to go away.
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: You go over to Universal Studios, and I know where
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: the DeLorean is I walked by it actually on Thursday.
• 14:00
  Speaker 3: So there's a DeLorean right there. You find the DeLorean.
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: And then you go back to the future and unlock
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: the superpowers. Because Cooper Cup for one season was the
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: greatest receiver in the NFL twenty twenty one. However, it's
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: not twenty twenty one, spoiler earlier, it's twenty twenty five.
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: Cooper Cup has not had a thousand yard season the
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: last three years, which is a baseline, over seventeen games.
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: He's missed at least five games with all kinds of
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: humpty dumpty like injuries for three straight years. And if
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: my malor math is correct, the Cooper Cup has missed
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: I think it's eighteen games over the last four seasons.
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: That's an that's over a season of football that he
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: has not been able to play.
• 14:45
  Speaker 3: And you look at his age and.
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: He's crossed over the age of thirties, so you're like, okay, well,
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: how many more productive years is he going to have?
• 14:53
  Speaker 3: The production has done the limbo down, down, down, down,
• 14:57
  Speaker 3: down down? How low can you go? How low? Oh
• 15:00
  Speaker 3: can you go? Now again? I like the guy I
• 15:03
  Speaker 3: just killed him, but I like the player like the
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: way when he's healthy and plays.
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: I like him. But yeah, let's hold off on he's
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: a number one receiver, a number two. That scout must
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: be from the Tennessee Titans because they don't know football, right.
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: That must be a dumb scout. There's a lot of
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: dumb scouts out there.
• 15:19
  Speaker 3: Oh, it goes a number one.
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: Don't please my fat ass. Okay, anyway, it is the
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: Ben Mahlor Show. If you would like to set the
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: world on fire and be part of the show.
• 15:29
  Speaker 3: You are more than welcome.
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: It is an interactive program and for better or worse,
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: usually worse. We give out the number and people call up,
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: and normally they fall asleep and then we goof on
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: them because they snore, and then we go to the
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: next caller and then they say something stupid, so then
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: we go back to the person that snores, and then

• 20:56
  Speaker 1: Well, you know, you can look on Apple Podcasts, Spotify,
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: certain Puck podcast and you can find that there. And
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: if you're into the Los Angeles Kings like I am,
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: I've got a daily show that I do called Locked
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: on La King. So it's keeping me busy. It's keeping
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: me talking into a microphone, so you know, I'm keeping
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: the the mechanism moving or whatever. But at least it's
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: given me something to do. But yeah, no, I appreciate.
• 21:21

• 21:22
  Speaker 1: of the Malaur Militia subscribing. Got the YouTube channel podcast TV.
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: You can check that out. So yeah, I've had a
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: lot of support and obviously a lot of love. I've
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: kind of disassociated myself from from Twitter or x or whatever,
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: uh you know, but I still, uh, the show is
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: still in my thoughts. I still connect with some of
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: the listeners and while I haven't this is the first
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: time I've called in since uh you know, since I've left.
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: I've definitely been thinking about the show, and thank you
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: Ben for every once in a while busting off the
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: text and just see how things are going. But just
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: wanted to call in and.
• 21:59
  Speaker 2: Say, well, that's great, and you are are missed. Now
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: are you off? Are you on Blue Sky now? Is
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: that why you got off X? Are you just you
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: don't want the toxicity of X? You're just done with?
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: No? No, No, I'm still on it. I haven't I
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: haven't joined anything else. I'm still there. I just haven't
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: been that interactive on it. Every once in a while
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: I'll just pop on there and see what we can see.
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: But don't, don't anybody in the militia take that for me,
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: not not caring or not wondering what's going on with
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: the show just kind of you know how it is.
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: You're kind of just disassociate from things for a little while,
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: and you know, it is a little bit melancholy for
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: me to think that the show is somehow still going
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: on without me. I don't know how that's possible, but
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: apparently it still is.
• 22:41
  Speaker 6: So.
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: But no, I'm still still thinking about everybody in the militia,
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: And of course you guys and Lorraine and Coop and
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: uh I will get in there in studio and come
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: forate in person visits there in the very near future.
• 22:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, absolutely, Well have you come coming out with us?
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: And bird Dog says is that Eddie on the phone.
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: I thought he passed on to the great beyond. No, No,
• 23:02
  Speaker 2: Eddie's very much right there, alive, alive, and well are
• 23:07
  Speaker 2: you have you already planned your Charger trips for next year?
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: I guess the schedule's not out yet, so you have
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: to wait on where you're going to.
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: Oh, you know this is Garcia is always on top
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: of everything. So that is one thing I have been
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: thinking about. Because as you well know, there is any
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: Charger going into the Pro Football Hall of Fame this year,
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: that would be the great tight end, Antonio Gates, And
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: so we will be going who can't Ohio for the induction?
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: And so I assume that justin Cincinnati and Dick and
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: Dayton are still with us, I hope. So if I'm
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: going to be in Ohio, I'm gonna have to connect
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: with them and anybody else who wants to meet up.
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: I know I'm not officially a staff of the show, but.
• 23:53
  Speaker 2: Ed, you're part of the show.
• 23:54
  Speaker 3: You're an alumni member, an actor.
• 23:56
  Speaker 2: You paid your dues the other day Fox Sports Radio
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: alumni member right there with Rich Aurera. So congratulations on that.
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: But uh, but no, absolutely, and I don't know when
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: that is going to be the Hall of Fame game.
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: I don't assume it's sometime in August. Yeah, I am
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: trying to get to Ohio myself because we're going to
• 24:14
  Speaker 2: try to do a Mallard meet and greet in Ohio.
• 24:17
  Speaker 2: But I don't have a date on that. I'm not sure.
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: Well, why don't you make it for the Pro Football
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: Hall of Fame.
• 24:21
  Speaker 2: You so all we can all get together and hang
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: out with the Dixter He called in yesterday. He called in. Yeah,
• 24:29
  Speaker 2: he's still he's still around, and he's a little concerned
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: about the Browns, a little concerned. He likes Andrew or
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: old buddy Andrews Silian, who's the Browns play by play guy,
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: But he's not as good as Jimmy Donovan, not as
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: good as well.
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: I mean that those are big shoes to fill from
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: Jimmy Donovan. I mean we all know that. Yeah, I
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: understand that. But I much miss you guys and miss
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: miss all the listeners. I do not miss the NBA
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: one bit. It has been so wonderful to have to
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: think or look at or I did happen to sear
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: about a trade the Lakers made.
• 25:02
  Speaker 3: It was not a trade, Eddie. It was a gift.
• 25:04
  Speaker 2: It was not a trade. A trade is when you
• 25:06
  Speaker 2: you put a player on the auctioning block and team's
• 25:09
  Speaker 2: bid on the player. When you just give a player
• 25:11
  Speaker 2: to another team, that's a gift. That's not a trade.
• 25:14
  Speaker 3: They just gave their top player to the Lakers and
• 25:17
  Speaker 3: said here, you can have them.
• 25:18
  Speaker 2: We don't want him anymore.
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: Was shocked to hear that Anthony Davis is already hurt.
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: I could not believe that.
• 25:24
  Speaker 3: Well, that never it never happens in that league.
• 25:27
  Speaker 2: That never happened, mister Luciano, right since says great to
• 25:29
  Speaker 2: hear from Eddie Art Puffins promoting the Puck Podcast, Anthony anahean,
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: they're all all the regulars, Eddie, They're all there, all
• 25:36
  Speaker 2: the stars of the show. They love you. They're happy
• 25:38
  Speaker 2: to hear your voice again.
• 25:39
  Speaker 3: They love you, mate.
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: I appreciate that, and I also would be remiss, and
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: I don't need to be bring the show down. But uh,
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: there was some very sad news. I got texted by
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: our friend Manuel and Gardina, who unfortunately suffered a terrible
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: tragedy in his family. He lost his son. Uh you
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: know just I mean, how awful obviously is that, and
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: I just want to send out all my thoughts and
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: prayers to him. He came in studio not not long before,
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: you know, I was gone there and we got to
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: meet him, and he's been a longtime supporter of the show,
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: and so I was very obviously sad to hear about that.
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: I hope everybody sends out their best wishes to him
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: because obviously he's going to a tremendously difficult time right now.
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: Thoughts out to him.
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: Absolutely. I actually just saw that man. Well has been
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: I mean, he's been with me. I mean, we go
• 26:30
  Speaker 2: back to the nineties. He was when he's been listening
• 26:32
  Speaker 2: to when I started doing like local radio in LA
• 26:35
  Speaker 2: and I don't I don't know the details on that,
• 26:36
  Speaker 2: but it's it's terrible.
• 26:37
  Speaker 3: There's a goalfund me. I'll I'll send that out.
• 26:39
  Speaker 2: Also, there's a GoFundMe for our friend Manuel and Guardina,
• 26:43
  Speaker 2: his son who passed away at a very young age.
• 26:46
  Speaker 2: So tragedy. For sure. We love Manuel, we wish him
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: that he gets through that. There's no easy way to
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: get through that stuff, for sure. But yeah, thoughts are there,
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: so uh, all right, well, you know we do. I've
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: seen you the Charging games a few times. When I
• 27:01
  Speaker 2: was actually telling the wife there, I said, we got
• 27:03
  Speaker 2: to get the better sometimes, so we will have to
• 27:05
  Speaker 2: plan something and probably and yeah, I do want to.
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: Let everybody know that Ben Maller has a big heart
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: and that every time he would come visit me at
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: the Charger game, he'd come down from the Ivory tower
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: in the press box and he would bring me he
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: would bring me a pocket full of candy bars the
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: press box. Yes, I and I really I appreciated that
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: that was so nice to me.
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: That was from Stan Kronky or whoever you know, the charges.
• 27:34
  Speaker 2: It wasn't my you know, it was there. They felt
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: they wanted to give that to you, Eddie. And yeah,
• 27:39
  Speaker 2: there's nothing quite like media free loading for sure. But
• 27:42
  Speaker 2: all right, well Eddie again, Eddie, if you want to
• 27:45
  Speaker 2: hear Eddie, hopefully we'll get him back here on the
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: show at some point, but until then you can hear
• 27:48

  Speaker 2: if he's eligible. That's a good point. Great to hear
• 30:09
  Speaker 2: Eddie's voice.
• 30:10
  Speaker 3: We love Eddie and hopefully who knows.
• 30:13
  Speaker 2: Twenty twenty five long year, only in February, so there's
• 30:16
  Speaker 2: a lot of time left and you never know what
• 30:17
  Speaker 2: will happen, So who knows, Maybe I'll come back. But
• 30:20
  Speaker 2: that was the games of note. Now, as far as
• 30:23
  Speaker 2: I did want to mention this before I forget, you know,
• 30:25
  Speaker 2: I have a tendency, Lorraine to forget things and then
• 30:27
  Speaker 2: I don't get to them showing me both bro. Yeah, man,
• 30:30
  Speaker 2: it's just yeah, I mean it's a pain in the ass.
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: I get carried away and then I get distracted by
• 30:35
  Speaker 2: something shiny, a shiny object, and then I go through
• 30:38
  Speaker 2: a shiny object.
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 30:39
  Speaker 2: So Adam Silver and the NBA marketing people, they had
• 30:44
  Speaker 2: this big, grand plan the All Star Games coming up
• 30:47
  Speaker 2: here in the Bay Area this weekend in San Francisco.
• 30:51
  Speaker 2: The Warriors the host team. Right, big All Star weekend
• 30:54
  Speaker 2: in San Francisco. All the luminaries in the NBA will
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: be there. It's a celebration there. Guys there to party,
• 31:00
  Speaker 2: not really to play in the game. And I don't
• 31:02
  Speaker 2: even know what the game is so fugazy this year.
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: I mean, I don't even know what's going on with
• 31:05
  Speaker 2: the game. But anyway, I bring the get to the point.
• 31:08
  Speaker 2: So the NBA marketing people had this great idea. They said,
• 31:11
  Speaker 2: you know what we're gonna do. We are going to
• 31:14
  Speaker 2: have a three on three competition of w NBA stars
• 31:19
  Speaker 2: and we're gonna we're gonna mix in. We're gonna have
• 31:21
  Speaker 2: a three point shooting contest with Steph Curry and we're
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: gonna get all these big stars there and we're gonna
• 31:29
  Speaker 2: and we but what Caitlin.
• 31:30
  Speaker 3: Clark's gonna be part of it? Brilliant?
• 31:32
  Speaker 2: Well, uh, Caitlin Clark said, screw you, I ain't doing it.
• 31:37
  Speaker 2: She declined to do the three point contest. Because of that,
• 31:43
  Speaker 2: the NBA was forced to scrap their All Star weekend plans.
• 31:47
  Speaker 2: So I don't she doing load management? I don't. I
• 31:50
  Speaker 2: mean she's injured. I don't know. I don't. I'll have
• 31:53
  Speaker 2: to go to my my Caitlin Clark expert angry.
• 31:55
  Speaker 3: Maybe she just doesn't want to go.
• 31:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe she's anti San Francisco. I don't know. But
• 32:00
  Speaker 2: she's like a big deal, right, I mean, you're a
• 32:02
  Speaker 2: big deal. Isn't that part of this?
• 32:03
  Speaker 3: That's what I'm saying. You just don't have to go
• 32:05
  Speaker 3: because she doesn't want to go.
• 32:06
  Speaker 2: Maybe that's it, but I mean she's supposed to promote
• 32:09
  Speaker 2: the WNBA, and the only person people watching the WNBA
• 32:12
  Speaker 2: is hurt. No one's watching when she's not playing, so
• 32:16
  Speaker 2: there's an opportunity to cross over. I guess there you go,
• 32:20
  Speaker 2: all right? Yeah, I want to know when I get
• 32:22
  Speaker 2: invited to, like the Marconi Awards, I don't go much.
• 32:26
  Speaker 2: Too important to go to the Marconi Awards.
• 32:28
  Speaker 3: Get too good for them, Ben, I can't be bothered.
• 32:31
  Speaker 2: Just like they can't bother giving me a Marconi Award,
• 32:33
  Speaker 2: I can't bother.
• 32:34
  Speaker 3: Going to the Marconi Award.
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: That's right.
• 32:36
  Speaker 2: So it's very similar dynamic to me and Caitlin Clark
• 32:40
  Speaker 2: for sure.
• 32:41
  Speaker 3: Time now for the who am I?
• 32:43
  Speaker 6: Game? Here?
• 32:43
  Speaker 2: It is is where I pretend to be somebody else,
• 32:45
  Speaker 2: as we call it, who am I Game? Ben Simmons.
• 32:48
  Speaker 2: Ben Simmons, Oh boy, oh eve.
• 32:51
  Speaker 3: I actually played well in his Clipper debut.
• 32:53
  Speaker 2: He had twelve points, eight rebound, six assists and three
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: steals in his LA debut for the People's Team. He's
• 33:01
  Speaker 2: the first Clipper player to have that stat line and
• 33:05
  Speaker 2: shoot eighty percent or better since me again, Ben Simmons
• 33:12
  Speaker 2: the what an enigma this guy is. But he's with
• 33:15
  Speaker 2: the Clippers now. I'll give him the benefit of the
• 33:17
  Speaker 2: doubt until he breaks my heart again. But Ben Simmons
• 33:19
  Speaker 2: twelve points eight rebound six says three steals in his
• 33:22
  Speaker 2: LA People's Team debut, and that means he's the first
• 33:25
  Speaker 2: Clipper player to have those numbers in shoot eighty percent
• 33:31
  Speaker 2: or better. Since me, who am I? That is the
• 33:36
  Speaker 2: question the answer. We'll get to it and we will
• 33:39

• 34:57
  Speaker 2: Ben Simmons I saw. I was watching the Clipper Jazz game.
• 35:00

• 35:05
  Speaker 2: six assists and three steals in his debut for the
• 35:09
  Speaker 2: People's Team. He's the first Clipper player since me to
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: reach those numbers. On eighty percent field goal shooting, Simmons
• 35:18
  Speaker 2: was four or five from the floor.
• 35:20

  Speaker 2: in Berkeley. Hello Andrea, welcome, Hello Ben, how are you?
• 39:53
  Speaker 2: If I was any better, I would be asleep, but
• 39:58
  Speaker 2: I'm not going so I mentioned the snow move, yeah,
• 40:02
  Speaker 2: and all that, so we got that going on, right, Yes.
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: Thank you.
• 40:06
  Speaker 6: It's great to hear you wax philosophical about the full moon.
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: Thank you.
• 40:10
  Speaker 2: Yes, well, you're my consultant, you're my insider, you have
• 40:13
  Speaker 2: all the answers.
• 40:14
  Speaker 6: Yes, we'll happy to be of service. And yes, indeed,
• 40:17
  Speaker 6: we still are feeling the full moon. So we feel
• 40:21
  Speaker 6: at two degrees before the day of and two days after,
• 40:27
  Speaker 6: so we are definitely still in the full moon zone.
• 40:31
  Speaker 6: And you know, just a lot of extra emotions going on.
• 40:36
  Speaker 6: And it should be speaking of witch Aaron Rogerson.
• 40:42
  Speaker 2: Rogers knowing my luck. Yes, Andrea, he's gonna end up
• 40:46
  Speaker 2: with the Rams. Okay, I'm gonna talk about Roger. I'll
• 40:48
  Speaker 2: do a monologue. But I think you'll end up with
• 40:51
  Speaker 2: the Raiders of the Rams if he keeps playing. Because
• 40:53
  Speaker 2: every player that I kind of goof on ends up
• 40:55
  Speaker 2: with the team. I like, like Ben Simmons, I goofed
• 40:58
  Speaker 2: on him. He's now in the Clippers. I used to
• 40:59
  Speaker 2: goof on James Harden, he's on the clip. Kawhi Leonard,
• 41:02
  Speaker 2: he's on the clip. Like all these guys the teams,
• 41:04
  Speaker 2: they all end up on the teams. My h Blake's bro.
• 41:07
  Speaker 3: I'm risking my life that that he's on the Dodgers. Yeah,
• 41:12
  Speaker 3: I can't win. I can't win.
• 41:14
  Speaker 2: It's like, what am I doing? I ripped these guys
• 41:17
  Speaker 2: on my teams, ridiculous with some kind of cosmic connection
• 41:21
  Speaker 2: that they clearly have the power of the microphones. And
• 41:24
  Speaker 2: if you want to sail oad to Andrew, by the
• 41:25
  Speaker 2: way she is, aren't actually can saiload her? And Virgo
• 41:29
  Speaker 2: in service, Virgo in service our friend Andrew. She's got
• 41:33
  Speaker 2: all the star charts and all of that good stuff.
