  Speaker 1: Boom Shaka laka. It's our u too, our number two,
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: and it's about those OTAs. Not everyone loves the OTAs.
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: In fact, edge rusher Hassan Reddick has decided to skip
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: the first day of the Buccaneers OTA's head coach Todd
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: Bowle said, and I quote, I'm sure one of these
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: days will see him. Should the Buccaneers be worried? Also,
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: tight end Kyle Pitts didn't show up to his OTAs
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: in Atlanta. Your thoughts on that situation. He wants a
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: new contract and Bengals star wide receiver Jamar Chase, Well,
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: he's saying maybe we should play in these exhibition games.
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: He understands that he didn't want to. But the team
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: has gotten off to zero and two starts the past
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: three seasons. What say you on that? We'll get to
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: that and more? Right now here it is our number two.
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: It turns out the buck stops here, like right at
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: the practice facility, the buck stops.
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: Well.
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: Come in the beginning of another hour of the Ben
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: Malor Show. We are in the air everywhere, Bedfellows, as
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: we keep it simple, coast to coast, border, the border
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: and beyond on the mast and candidly powerful microphones of

  Speaker 1: FSR amminating live from the book as in the Audio
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: Sportsbook of the Overnight. We're hanging out here at the
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio studios as approved by mister Irrigation, friend
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: of the show in Houston in this portion of the
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: Ben Malor Show, made possible in part by tier Rack.
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: For over forty years, Tyraq has been helping customers find
• 1:43

  Speaker 1: convenient installation options for dog and alf approof of that
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: mobile tire installation tire raq dot com. The way tire
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: buying should be. So get away from the basketball as
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: the Pacers are a win away from the NBA Finals,
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: and I'll leave this hour from football. It's May, it's
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: late May. We're almost into June. And so that means
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: a staple of the football calendar organized team activities, which
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: is guaranteed to provide content for fledgling Overnight sports radio
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: gas bags. The offseason workouts so intense, so wild that
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: some people cannot be bothered to attend said workouts.
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: Well, not everyone is there.
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: For example, Hassan Reddick, remember him a sack Merchant back
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: in the day and still making a lot of money.
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: Son Reddick, who was someone who just joined this offseason
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: the Tampa Bay football team, the Buccaneers, and he decided, Eh,
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: I'm I'm not gonna go I'm gonna skip the first
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: day of OTAs. Now, if you didn't see this, perhaps not,
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: I don't blame you. I thought this was interesting, consider
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: ding what happened with him last year. The money quote
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: was from Todd Bowles. The really entertaining some Todd Bowles
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: is a much better SoundBite than he is a head coach.
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: I like Todd Bowles cas baggery. Anyway, Todd Bowles said,
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: when asked about the big defensive pickup of the Buccaneers
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: not showing up, he said, I'm sure one of these days.
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: Will see him close. Quote.
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: Gotta love the dry eloquence of Todd Bowles. So let
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: us discuss. So you got the edge rusher who had
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: a very public falling out with the Jets and the
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: Eagles and the only heyway, So you've got Hassan Reddick,
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: who has now skipped the beginning of OTAs with his
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: new team, the Buccaneers. The head coach, Todd Bowles says, quote,
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: I'm sure one of these days will see him close quote,
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: So should the Bucks be worried about their big defensive pickup?
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: I have on this one. I've got Warner.
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: Brothers, Sampler Plate, and Chivalrous and we will combine all
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: of these things together and we're going to take a
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: trip to can Kun, which is likely where Hassan Reddick
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: is and Can't Coon somewhere. So number one, number one,
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: I'm nodding my head yes on this one. I'm nodding
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: my head yes. Now, this is absolutely, positively, undeniably a problem.
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: Now you say it's not a big problem, but you
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: can't say it's not a problem. You can't because of
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: the player. Now I realized there are always the jocksniffers,
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: the fanboys in the media that are out there that
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: will point out that OTA's are vall on Terry, Capitol
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: v Fall and Terry. It's the it's the smell test
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: that's the problem. The smell test is the problem here.
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: This is a guy who sat out months with the
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: He was unhappy with Philadelphia and they went to the
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: Jets because of a contract beef. Where's the beef? He
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: was very upset and now he gets another fat check
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: in Tampa. Granted it's not a long term deal, but
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: he got a good amount of money and it was
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: fourteen million or something for one year.
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: And this is the first impression.
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: I ain't showing up. I ain't playing unless I got mine.
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: He's getting the contract. He's just not going to show up.
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: And this becomes a I mentioned the smell test. This
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: is a Warner Brothers classic cartoon, pepe le peu pe.
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah, what stinks? All right? And it's all about the optiction.
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: We had a conversation last night about bad manners, like
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: Coop has terrible manners, and this is bad manners.
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: I know you technically don't have to be there, but you're.
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: Already a question mark, right, You're already a question mark
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: in terms of attitude from last year. And it's a
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: fresh opportunity to say, oh, you know, I got that
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: situation done with. I've got a new contract, I'm on
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: a new team. Things are different. It's not like it
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: was last year. And you have to build up the
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: bubble of trust, right, And your decision, rather than build
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: up the bubble of trust is to go m I A.
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: That is your decision. And I think that's being a
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: great leader. I mean, maybe I'm wrong, I don't know,
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: but the man has an allergic reaction. Hassan Reddick to
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: voluntary workers, it's the bare minimum condition is a lot
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: of lazy people. I guess he's lazy, you know, just
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: I don't want to do anything extra. You know, it's
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: like you should work for the government or something like that.
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: I work at the DMV. I see a lot of
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: people the DMV that do the bare minimum, go through
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: go through the motions and all that. And so you
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: see that that phrase ota, you see that on your
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: calendar app and immediately you buy some suntan lotion and
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: you're like booking a beach vacation somewhere far away. It's
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: a it's kind of like dway. Look, it's like you're
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: starting at a new company. You've changed careers, you're starting
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: at a new company, and you have a zoom meeting
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: and you decide to ghost.
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: The zoom meeting. Yeah, yeah, I'm good. I'm good.
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: And I did love Todd Bowles quote again saying that
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: we'll see him one of these days. We'll see We'll
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: see the player. Hassan Reddick, the Bucks coach, said, which
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: is I think what we all say. If you're out
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: and about and you've ordered an uber and you see
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: that there's a lot of traffic in the cars being
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: delayed and all that stuff because it's stuck in traffic,
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: you say, well, well we'll see the uber one of
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: these days. It'll show up. One of these days, it'll
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: show up.
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: All right now, Page two, speaking of no shows.
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: Speaking of no shows, you have tight end Kyle Pitts,
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: who did not show up to OTAs in Atlanta.
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: This is the tight end.
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: You told me, you draft knicks, that this is God's
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: gift to the tight end position. You told me that
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: there's no way this does not work out. Built like
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: a Donnis, runs like a gazelle, unbelievable.
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: Right, So he has.
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: Decided not show up to the OTAs in Atlanta, and
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: your thought on this particular situation, so to this one
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: is gummy. All right, this one is absolutely gummy. You've
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: got a guy who's been underwhelming. It's been kind, he's
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: been underwhelming since his rookie year. He has not lived
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: up to the immense hype that he had coming out
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: of the draft. And this is when he decides to
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: make a statement very bizarre. So again, just for the record,
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: this is a top five pick that you told me
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: was going to be amazing.
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: The draft nerds told me it was going to be amazing.
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: A unicorn, a unicorn tight end, going to rewrite the
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: record book.
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: So this is the final year.
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: I believe, I believe I have this right, final year
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: of his rookie contract, and he's upset he's not getting
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: an extension and he's bothered by that.
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: Has he even earned a second contract?
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: Does anyone think that he's what he has done, his
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: body of work is worthy of a second contry, Like
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: another can't miss guy who who flopped the idea of
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: Kyle Pitts coming out.
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: I remember we did the typical draft shows.
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: And you were like, Oh, this guy's a three headed dragon,
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: fire breathing dragon, and he's out there running around the
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: idea of Kyle pitch much better than what has been
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: the reality of Kyle Pits.
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: He has been a sampler plate with the Atlanta.
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: Falcons of injuries, inconsistent performance, and a lot of excuses.
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: People that love to make excuses that I said this
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: guy was going to be good. I told you he
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: was going to be great. He's not great. It's not
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: his fault. It's not his fault. Blame the quarterbacks, because
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: of course there's never been players, never been players that
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: have put up great stats with mediocre quarterba It never happens.
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: You have to have a great quarterback to put up
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: good stats. You have to. It's a rule. It's a rule.
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: You have to. You have to unless you don't.
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: All right, now, final points, So we go down to
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: sin Cinnati is where we go where the Bengals and
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: their wide receiver Jamar Chase said that while he does
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: not does not want to play in the exhibition games,
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: he understands. He said that he may may have to
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: because that's what's best for the Cincinnati football team, which
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: has lost its first two games the past three seasons.
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: They have gotten out to zero and two starts.
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: What say you on the generosity of Jamar Chase says,
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: we might have to play in some some of these
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: exhibition games. They are only two exhibition games anyways, so
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: it's really about playing in one of them. They're gonna
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: play one of them, and that's that's that's that. So, uh,
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: my reaction is how how wonderful chivalrous is my word?
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: How chivalrous of jamar Cha, very noble, a noble star,
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: a noble star who signed the record setting contract with
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: the Cincinnati football team. And these guys, this is one
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: thing that's completely changing my lifetime. These guys treat the
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: preseason like it is beneath them.
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: It is a nuisance, It is beneath them.
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: They are way too good to go out and get
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: some reps, not even a couple of reps. Just it's August.
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: I can't do it. I cannot get out there in August.
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: And so this is where these these modern guys fall behind.
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: The weasel term, the shield of the weasel, and.
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: The weasel term on this is out of an abundance
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: of caution. You got that a lot during the pandemic, right,
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: You couldn't go out and eat eat fries at at
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: a restaurant because of abundance of caution and all that stuff,
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: which was turned out to be total bull crap by
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: the politician. Anyway, the way you don't play a lot,
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: but you can play a little bit, You can play
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: a little bit, and you can't approach this thing like
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: playing scare. That's really the message, right. It seems like
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: the Cincinnati bungals, if you will. They start out owing
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: to pretty much every year. It's like a birth what
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: right in Cincinnati? And then what happens is they have
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: to grab a shovel because they start out on they
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: got to grab a shovel, and then they have to
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: dig out of a.
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: Hole just because they've they've dug themselves a hole.
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: And maybe if they actually tried something a little different
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: in these exhibition games, they wouldn't come out of the
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: gate looking like they just met each other. It's like
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: the first day of school. They started at a new school. Hey,
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: what's your name?
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: All right? And they run out of the tunnel before
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: the game. All right, we have play some football.
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: Your name Bill, John, all right, whatever you name it.
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: And now the light bulb has turned on. The light
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: bulb has turned on.

• 16:08
  Speaker 4: tell you don't be surprised to see the Stars win
• 16:10
  Speaker 4: it in seven and last week. Then I'm gonna ask
• 16:12
  Speaker 4: you one question, man, I just want to hear you well.
• 16:14
  Speaker 4: Two actually, One, where do you see the Broncos finishing
• 16:18
  Speaker 4: this year in the AFC West? And secondly, what's it
• 16:21
  Speaker 4: going to take for MLB to step in and do
• 16:23
  Speaker 4: something with the Rockies and make them sell before they
• 16:25
  Speaker 4: can embarrass themselves anymore.
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: I love you, all right, thank you, all right, appreciate it.
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well, making them sell the Rockies baseball. The only
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: team that Baseball's made sell or made the team sell
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: was the Dodgers because of Frank McCord and because they
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: were a money maker.
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: So I don't think they're going to force it. They
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: don't seem to care. Uh.
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: The Chicago White Sox didn't get sold. They were horrific
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: last year. They still have the same ownership group, and
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: so I don't think they give a rats last well.
• 16:54
  Speaker 4: We get that. My point is the Colorado fans is
• 16:56
  Speaker 4: are better because your donors are sitting on the butt
• 16:58
  Speaker 4: just raking in money, not giving it about that team.
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: I love you, yeah, all right.
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: All right, man, thank you, all right, appreciate it. I'm
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: glad you found the show. It's been it's been a minute.
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: It's been a minute. The Rockies, though, are so horrific
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: that they are actually doing things that you know, it's
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: a long way to go, but they're right now ahead
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: of the Chicago White Sox by a wide margin. And
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: they're comparing them to the Cleveland Spiders, which are like
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: the worst team ever, Baseball nerds, they yap about that
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: they the Rockies. We have a one sixty seven winning percentage,
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: a minus one hundred and seventy one run differential, and
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: they're usually losing by it's not like one run losses.
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: Like most of these games are getting absolutely cooked in
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: most of these these games. So it's it's pretty crazy.
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: And they the one guy they tried to pay a
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: lot of money to decided to take the money and retire.
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: Chris Bryant. He's not officially retired, he's just stop trying.
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: So you've got that going for Let's go to blind Scott,
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: who's on the north end of Boston. Hello, blind Scott, Wait.
• 18:09
  Speaker 5: Why did Chris Bryant retire? I don't under put my
• 18:13
  Speaker 5: hearing it.
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: You have a hearing aid. He didn't retire. I thought
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: you were.
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: You always told me you were prepared. You always said
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: I am prepared, I am ready to go.
• 18:21
  Speaker 5: I'm prepared right now. Sorry, I just had to hit
• 18:23
  Speaker 5: a but I just tried to hit a button. So
• 18:25
  Speaker 5: when that go, I was one hundred percent prepared right there. Dude, dude,
• 18:28
  Speaker 5: I think this has fabricated this argument between you, Coop
• 18:32
  Speaker 5: and Marena.
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: Like, how did I How did I fabricate the You
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: have no idea what you're talking about? How would I
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: fabricate the degree?
• 18:39
  Speaker 5: I mean, I agree with the concept of the argument
• 18:41
  Speaker 5: and that you went and spoke to people. But if
• 18:43
  Speaker 5: you look at the Danny DeVito story that we line
• 18:45
  Speaker 5: up from last night, it's sorry similar to that story.
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: What don what are you talking about? What did Danny
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: DeVito do last night?
• 18:51
  Speaker 5: Well, he called up last night and he triggered me.
• 18:54
  Speaker 5: When he was talking to you on the phone. He
• 18:56
  Speaker 5: was in my top five of callers. I had like
• 18:58
  Speaker 5: him all of me to lose from other guys. You know,
• 19:01
  Speaker 5: I bumped him out of there with that call yesterday.
• 19:03
  Speaker 5: It made no sense. It wasn't a sports radio call.
• 19:06
  Speaker 5: He was talking about a private conversation. I might have
• 19:10
  Speaker 5: to jump in a garbage truck right now, go down
• 19:12
  Speaker 5: to the garbage site and start beating people up. I
• 19:14
  Speaker 5: got real triggered by that. Ben. The thing is, like,
• 19:17
  Speaker 5: you don't call up a show and say somebody's talking
• 19:19
  Speaker 5: about Ben. We know people talk about us on other
• 19:22
  Speaker 5: sports radio shows. That's the sports radio game we're trying
• 19:26
  Speaker 5: to get.
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: That's right, that's the game you don't worry about the game.
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: Who cares about them? They're losers. No one listens to
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: those shows, no one to know.
• 19:34
  Speaker 5: We'd like to know who the show is because we
• 19:36
  Speaker 5: got a whole mall of militia here that we.
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: Would well, that is that is, that is true.
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: If you're gonna say, if somebody's talking about you behind
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: your back, you name the show, and then if we
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: have to, we will have a declaration of cyber warfare.
• 19:49
  Speaker 5: So what would so what would happen is if I
• 19:51
  Speaker 5: if I could find out who this is, I would
• 19:53
  Speaker 5: reach out to Robbie, the Manners fan. I'd put him
• 19:55
  Speaker 5: at the top of the mal and militia. He's the
• 19:57
  Speaker 5: head guy, and I would try to get him to
• 19:59
  Speaker 5: fun with down channels. But we can't even figure out
• 20:01
  Speaker 5: what's going on because we've got Danny DeVito calling while
• 20:04
  Speaker 5: he's dumping a dump truck, trying to tell us.
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: Well, I will ask, I will ask Danny DeVito to
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: name the show, and then we will He made some
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: accusation that some show is sullying my name.
• 20:18
  Speaker 5: It was unclear. It was unclear. It's like I was
• 20:21
  Speaker 5: on a podcast. I mean, emmittt has the podcast Blind Emmett.
• 20:24
  Speaker 5: It could have been on Blind Emmett's podcast for all
• 20:26
  Speaker 5: we know. We just we don't know. So the same
• 20:29
  Speaker 5: thing it goes with you with his story book going
• 20:31
  Speaker 5: out to dinner. You said you talked to these people,
• 20:33
  Speaker 5: Electra stop, you said you talked to these people that
• 20:35
  Speaker 5: listened to the show, and uh, we don't know who
• 20:38
  Speaker 5: these people are?
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: What do you? What do you? What are you talking?
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: What do you The conversation was, it was here.
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: I was at the end of the show yesterday, I
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: was leaving and uh, I was on my way out.
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: I was trying to make plans with the Rain and
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: Coop for the weekend, and I found out they had
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: already made plans and I was not invited one one plan.
• 20:56
  Speaker 5: But Ben, you show up to stuff late all the time,
• 20:58
  Speaker 5: like you'll.
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: No, actually show up early. I get here before everyone.
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: These two show up at the last minute. I don't
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: here two hours.
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: Before the show.
• 21:04
  Speaker 5: No, when your casual bend like casual.
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: We're talking about it. I'm on time to everything. I
• 21:10
  Speaker 2: don't think you. I think you're talking you the wrong person.
• 21:11
  Speaker 5: There, No, everybody's there, So like, what about this dinner?
• 21:15
  Speaker 5: It wasn't going to fit your schedule though.
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: Like, I have no schedule. I we have.
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: We were supposed to have a couple of things, but
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: the soccer game got moved.
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: I literally have nothing. We were we were trying to
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: come up with.
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: I thought, you know, because we all worked together, maybe
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: we'd hang out, but I apparently not.
• 21:29
  Speaker 2: But uh so I'll make other plans. But it's fine.
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: I just it was a little blindsided.
• 21:33
  Speaker 5: But can I ask cool about this acting saying there
• 21:35
  Speaker 5: was this actor, his name was Heath Ledger. Now is
• 21:38
  Speaker 5: there anything going on in Vancouver to tribute this guy?
• 21:40
  Speaker 5: And he was the famous action.
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: Okay, that's a non sequittor why would you bring up
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: a non sequard?
• 21:44
  Speaker 5: Well, because I had on going to Vancouver, but.
• 21:47

• 21:50
  Speaker 1: show up to and you don't.
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: Show up to.
• 21:52
  Speaker 5: Because you know how we planned that house with we
• 21:54
  Speaker 5: were gonna have a disabled house with everybody from the
• 21:56
  Speaker 5: show living it. I wouldn't even be a living I'm

  Speaker 1: You said some random show that's apparently it sounds like
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: a terrible show was saying stuff about Danny g or
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: something like that. I don't even know what you're talking about.
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: Coveno and Coveno and Rich? Is that right?
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: Covino and Rich are trashing hold on a sec blind Scott.

  Speaker 1: According to Danny DeVito, Coveno and Rich Apparently that's a
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: show here and they're trashing DA.
• 22:46
  Speaker 5: So Danny is right about this. I picked up on
• 22:49
  Speaker 5: this before that they choke around about you. But it's
• 22:51
  Speaker 5: a two hour show. It's on Fox Sports Radio.
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: Is it on Fox Sports? I've never heard it.
• 22:55
  Speaker 5: Really, it's from five to seven, Is that right? It's
• 23:00
  Speaker 5: weird show. It's like so they used to work on
• 23:02
  Speaker 5: serious hits one, you know, and Rich in the sports radio.
• 23:05
  Speaker 5: I think they like Ben, they like mc goofing on
• 23:08
  Speaker 5: and sports I think one of the guys got a
• 23:10
  Speaker 5: job at Fox Sports one. I don't think it's.

  Speaker 1: the you said, the Colvino and Rich show, whatever that.
• 23:19
  Speaker 6: Is, Huh, I don't. I don't listen to it. I

  Speaker 6: got a close friend that does, and I guess around
• 23:25
  Speaker 6: all really.
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's very odd. I don't talk about them. I
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: don't know why they would talk about me. It's very odd.
• 23:32
  Speaker 6: Need have Ben, But I want you know, that's why
• 23:35
  Speaker 6: I'm calling you know. I want to applay that again
• 23:37

• 23:48
  Speaker 2: up now, and we'll see if the fellas want to
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: you know, if we got this is an active war
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: attacking my name. I don't know.
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: Maybe you misheard that you said, you didn't hear it exactly.
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: Maybe they didn't actually say what you thought they said.
• 23:59
  Speaker 6: Is it possible, maybe possibly with that there's a thing
• 24:03
  Speaker 6: on that show, supposedly Danny g But I do want
• 24:07
  Speaker 6: to say something's first been about the NBA Finals. I
• 24:12
  Speaker 6: love this now because you're gonna have two teams that
• 24:15
  Speaker 6: never won nothing. The league can't stand it, and this
• 24:18
  Speaker 6: in those two teams. Everything in the league is not.
• 24:21
  Speaker 6: There's no divas on those teams. I think it's great.
• 24:24
  Speaker 6: I don't know how you feel about that, But you
• 24:26
  Speaker 6: know all these other players, it's all about me, me, me,
• 24:28
  Speaker 6: and those those two teams there. If it's gonna be
• 24:31
  Speaker 6: the pass in thunder, I'm not about that.
• 24:34
  Speaker 2: I don't know that I would use the word great.
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: I don't think that would be the word I will use,
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: but it will.
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: It doesn't matter who plays in the finals. We'll watch,
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: and I don't think it's gonna be that great a series,
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: So I mean, I'll watch. But I think you did
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: all right. Devin writes and says on this Mallord meet
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: and greet thing where there was a dinner that was
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: not invited to, he says, by Coop, is it any
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: less inconsiderate Ben to not take the same flow. Well,
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: I think the inconsiderate party would be Loraina and Coop.
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: I'm the host of the show. They should have come
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: to the airport I'm flying out of and we could
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: have all flown together.
• 25:10
  Speaker 2: I know Coop laughs because he's a terrible producer.
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: But usually the way that which there is a power
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: structure and the host of the show. You accommodate the
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: host of the show. It's not accommodate the board, Op
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: or the call screener. It's normally the host.
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: Of the show. Look at how he's delights. That's normalous
• 25:27
  Speaker 2: right here, it's not the border. That's normally. We should
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: drive to the We should drive to the show. I
• 25:35
  Speaker 2: will be back. You go out the airport by his house. Yes,
• 25:41
  Speaker 2: after I work nine hours straight. Okay?
• 25:44
  Speaker 4: Uh.
• 25:44
  Speaker 2: And you know everyone's got a sob story.
• 25:46
  Speaker 7: Everyone's got a We don't want to make polls about
• 25:49
  Speaker 7: it online.
• 25:49
  Speaker 6: Do we?
• 25:50
  Speaker 3: Ben?
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: Well, you know, maybe you handed things properly. You don't
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: need a poll online. How about that? Maybe if you
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: if you have some freaking manners, manner maners exactly. It's
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: go to Charlie in Dallas. What's going on?
• 26:02

• 26:08
  Speaker 2: his micheline dinner. Well, I don't know. If he was
• 26:12
  Speaker 2: raised properly, maybe he would. I agree with you, Ben,
• 26:18
  Speaker 2: thank you for they were very rude.
• 26:23
  Speaker 3: I live.
• 26:24
  Speaker 4: I definitely know this. That's very rude.
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: Exactly, well, most people do, most people, not the people,
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: not the people I work with, but the people out
• 26:34

• 27:29
  Speaker 1: have a better chance. You have a better chance of
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: going out there and leading the Dallas Stars than the
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: current players.
• 27:34
  Speaker 2: How about that you scored one goal.

  Speaker 1: he's like, Minnesota, there's not you don't have the New
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: York City element and all that stuff. So what is
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: excuse going to be playing in Minnesota out because he's
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: been absolutely terrible. Minnesota's on the brink of elimination as
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: they are about to be escorted out of the postseason
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: here with one more loss, and then people are going
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: to point the finger at him and say, well, dude,
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: you're the second option behind Anthony Edwards and you have
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: gone a wall in this particular series. So with that,
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: Manuel in Gardena writes In says blind Scott and is
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: something about Danny DeVito. They need to get a room,
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: keep your affairs in Boston here trying to run a
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: sports talk show, not some kind of Beantown dating service
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: or something. I don't know what that's all about. Supermarket
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: Steve wrights In's trashing Covino and Rich. I don't I've
• 30:14

• 30:22
  Speaker 1: Malard prop Guy rights In says ferg Dog would like

  Speaker 1: triumphant return of another successful Maler meet and greet, and
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: then he's.
• 30:34
  Speaker 2: Got the the.
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: Menu there which he made up. I think through AI
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: a wonderfully fine menu. Eight seven seven ninety nine on
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: Fox is the number. If you'd like to be part,
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: that's eight seven seven nine nine six six three sixty
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: nine and you can join.
• 30:52
  Speaker 2: The Festivus of Talk.
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: The Festivus of Talk was an interesting conversation that has
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: taken place here over the last twenty four hours involving
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: Anthony Edwards, the ant man. Things are not going particularly
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: well for Anthony Edwards. He gave one of the worst
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: quotes you can possibly give after an embarrassing performance by
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: a headline star.
• 31:14
  Speaker 2: In the NBA, and I don't think I had a
• 31:16
  Speaker 2: bad game.
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: I just didn't get any enough shots up to have
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: a bad game. And it's like, yeah, it's like no accountability,
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: zero accountability from Anthony Edwards and he was getting killed
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: for that. Is this debate whether or not he's gonna
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: be the face of the NBA and I don't even
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: can put that to bed for right now. That conversation
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: will not come back. But one of the odd takes
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: was that he has to be a family man to
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: be the face of the NBA. This was something that
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: was bouncing around and that's that's not necessarily the case
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: at all. It doesn't hurt to be a family You
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: probably shouldn't go.
• 31:55
  Speaker 2: Around and be as busy.
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: I guess it's the word I will use as Anthony
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: Edwards has been Probably not a great way to go
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: on that, but anyway.
• 32:07
  Speaker 2: Is the Ben Mahlor Show.
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: As we were working our way through the open, also,
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: I saw Kevin Durant, more chatter, more NBA chatter that
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: Kevin Durant is flirting, playing footsie with the San Antonio Spurs,
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: and the way this story has been reported, I go,
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: there's mutual interest there between Kevin Durant and San Antonio
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: and they're talking about creating a.
• 32:30
  Speaker 2: Brand new super team.
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: So I asked the question, if Kevin Durant dropped into
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: San Antonio and then lose many of the current players,
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: the core players they have on the San Antonio Spurs
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: and Wemby's gonna come back next season, does that qualify
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: as a super team. And I'm gonna argue, no, it
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: does not qualify as a super team.
• 32:53
  Speaker 2: Kevin Durant.
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: The only time that worked. How many times has Durant
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: put a super team together? It's only worth one time.
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: That's it. It worked with the Golden State Worst. But
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: that was a team that he was dropped into and
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: they had established themselves and they had had success, and
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: Durant came flying in from the top rope and they
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: had even more success. But you look at what he
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: has done in Brooklyn with Kyrie Irving. That was supposed
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: to be a super team didn't. We're gonna went to Phoenix.
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: When he went to Phoenix, all Devin Booker, Durant, and
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: then they added Bradley Beal and the Sons were loaded.
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: Oh man, who's going to beat the Suns? Everybody everyone's
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: gonna beat the Suns. No one's gonna lose the Sun.
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: So you had that, uh, and so at this point
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: he said, numbers are not terrible, Kevin Durant. But you're like, eh,
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: likely not not going to be that guy. We're gonna
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: have Mallardy third degree coming up in a minute time.
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: Now for the insta trivia, and here it is Mariners
• 33:50
