  Speaker 1: and we are reunited through the magic of overnight talk radio.
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: How lucky are we to be hanging out together? And
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: our lead story here to begin the Overnight Talk Festivas
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: from the Hall of Fame Class of twenty twenty five.
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: Now Big Night in No Orleans. A lot of boozing.
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: Not just the media elites boozing. There's an NFL big
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: shots that came in there. As the NFL tries to
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: cross over. They've been doing this for years. They want
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: to be seen as entertainment and glitz and glamour, and
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: when it's just a bunch of meathead football players giving
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: awards to other meathhead football players. But for our purposes,
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: to begin the night, we'll push back, push back the
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: MVP award which did go to Josh Allen over Lamar Jackson,
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: So crank up the outrage machine. I did not share
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: the outrage with that. But if you did not pay
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: attention to Big One is the living cemetery of the NFL.
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: It's in Canton, Ohio. It's not technically the NFL. It's
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: the Pro Football Hall of Fame. But if you do
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: not see the class of twenty twenty five, that would
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: be tight end Antonio Gates, cornerback Eric Allen, defensive end
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: Jared Allen, so a lot of Allen's wide receivers, Sterling Sharp.
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: He joins his brother. They're the newest members of the
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: Pro Football Hall of Fame, and they will be inducted
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: in a Gallas ceremony in early August, where everyone will
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: be focused on Canton Ohio as they will be enshrined
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: in that mausoleum. Now, the class was chosen in a
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: smoke filled room, well, actually it was a virtual meeting.
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: Used to be a smoke filled room, but now everything's
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: on zoom. So the Board of Selectors, a group of
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: fifty voters, randomly decided who's in and who's out, who's
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: in and who's out. So it's the smallest class in
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: twenty years. You're gonna go back to twenty oh five.
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: Was barely alive then, and that was also a four
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: member class for the Hall of Fame. Now, the better
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: story is in the losing the losing locker room, or
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: in this case, the losing campaign for the Hall of Fame.
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: Now I mentioned moving man Matt and he has been
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: one of the great advocates him and guys like Spaccoli
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: and these other losers for Eli Manning to get into
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: the Hall of Fame. Well that's the story. Don't bear
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: the lead, my man, don't bear the lead. Better story
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: in the losing locker room. So you've got former Colts
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: and Patriots kicker Adam VENTERTERI did not make it, Panthers
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: linebacker Luke Keigley, and Giants quarterback Elijah Manning, all of
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: them in their first year of eligibility. None of them
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: were selected. The big one is the quarterback, and the
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: headlines all over the world wide web shocking, outrageous snub.
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: Eli blocked from Canton, Ohio at the NFL Honors and
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: that made the rounds bouncing around the pinball machine. So
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: let us discuss the question, how do you classify Eli
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: Manning not getting in to the Hall of Fame on
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: his first ballot. So I have David Copperfield, I've got
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: Hans Solo and Wendy's three things that have never ever
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: been combined together. Will ring the bell and we'll make
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: some magic here. So my first thought, how do you
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: classify Eli Manning not getting into the Hall of Fame
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: on the first ballot? I classify it as justified, right, Bravo,
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: bravo to the voters. I don't know who you are,
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: but I didn't think that the people that voted for
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: the Pro Football Hall of Fame had the intestinal fortitude,
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: had the manhood show. I don't know. I haven't gon
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: say it. They had hair in their chest to do this,
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: But Eli Maning being a first ballot Hall of Famer
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: would have been criminal. He is not that. I wouldn't
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: even put him in the Hall of Fame. And I
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: think eventually he's gonna get in the Hall of Fame.
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: But he doesn't deserve to be in the Hall of Fame.
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: And here's why he isd mid. He's a mid player.
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: He's David Copperfield. He's used smoking mirrors trickeration to convince
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: dumb people that he's better than he is. He's just
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: an average ballplayer that low information fans get all excited
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: about because a couple of fluke playoff runs. But he
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: never won a playoff game. Outside of those two fluke
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: runs in the playoffs, he was not at any point,
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: at any moment, an elite ballplayer. Now my evidence, Elijah
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: in his NFL career was a five hundred player, one
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: hundred and seventeen wins, one hundred and seventeen losses. He
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: never won an MVP award, never really came close to that.
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: He never finished as the league leader in passing yards.
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: He was never considered one of the top two or
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: three quarterbacks in the NFL at any point. He was
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: never named an All Pro. And that's a big one,
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: that is, how can you be a Hall of Famer
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: if not one time where you consider it an All Pro?
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: Sixteen years, not once did anyone say this guy's an
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: All Pro. None. And the Super Bowl wins, while they're
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: nice and all that, it's a team award. It's not
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: an individual award. And in terms of judging Eli Manning
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: on his own resume, not your imagination, your perception, your
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: fairy tale, but the actual raw numbers if you go
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: and look at him and also watching him play. But
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: that's a different conversation. But the math isn't mathing. When
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: you look at the Pro Football Reference page of Eli Manning,
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: Eli led the NFL in only one category over sixteen
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: years in the league. Only one. Now I'll give him credit.
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: He did lead the league three times in one category.
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: That category was that's right, interceptions, So he was elite
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: at throwing interceptions. So good job by him. That Bupkus.
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: And the comp on Eli Manning is Donovan McNabb. Would
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: you put Donovan McNabb on the Hall of It? Would
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: you put Carson Palmer in the Hall of Fame? That's
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: the type of ballplayer that Eli Manning is. Again, I
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: think eventually he'll get in, but it's nice that he
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: didn't get in right away. He won't likely get in
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: next year and he should have to wait a long time.
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: I would never put him in, but I know how
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: this works, I know the politics of this, and eventually
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: he'll end up in the Hall of Fame. Now, page two,
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: So where are you at on former Carolina linebacker Luke
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: Keighley not getting voted in as well? In the can
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: So to me, this was the snub in the room.
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: I can't get all worked up about Adam Vinti because
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: he's a kicker and kickers aren't real football players. But
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: Luke Keighley I can get worked up for. Since Keighley
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: did not play in the New York New Jersey tri
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: state area there with Connecticut. He doesn't have the last
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: name Manning the royalty of the NFL. This part is
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: mostly being ignored. And while Eli Manning clearly does not
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: belong in the Hall of Fame based on his resume,
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: Luke Keikley checks just about every box. Just about every box.
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: And this is a Han solo situation saying, Luke, may
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: the Force be with you, and the Force is with
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: Luke Keighley, and I'm gonna make my elevator pitch as
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: to why Luke Keigley was a five time All Pro,
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: a five time All Pro in his career. Remember, Eli
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: Manning was not. He was on the All Decade Team
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: Luke Keigley for the twenty tens. Eli Manning never made
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: an All Decade team. He was the Rookie Defensive Player
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: of the Year and then Defensive Player Year. The only
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: red flag, the only bumpety bump for Luke Keekley is
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: that he did not have longevity, but football is not
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: a sport design for longevity. He played eight seasons, which
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: seems like a lot longer than most NFL careers. However,
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: if you merely judge him on those eight years. He
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: ended up in the upper crust All pro status, not
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: Pro Bowl where they play game shows in a water
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: balloon toss All pro, all pro. Sixty two percent of
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: his career he was in the Krem de la Kreme
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: of the NFL. So, Luke Keickley, that was a bad
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: job by the voters. I agree with the Manning thing.
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: I do not agree with Luke Keighley. But you can't
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: get two worked up because it's Carolina Panther player and
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: there's not a lot of people that get all worked
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: out and more on in North Carolina and the Carolinas
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: and all that. But yeah, they're kind of calm and all.
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: All right, last word, So, how would you describe the
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: new members, the brand new members of the Hall of
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: Fame class of twenty twenty five. So I would describe
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: them as good, not great. Good, not great. In fact,
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: I would go back to an old forty some year
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: old marketing campaign from Windy's Where's the Beef? Where's the beef? Yeah,
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: it's lacking the wow factor. None of these guys are bad.
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: They're not bad. Eric Allen played fourteen seasons, so he
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: had longevity he made one All Pro team. Why is
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: he now a Hall of Famer? Win a Hall of Famer.
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: In the last couple of years, Antonio Gates made three
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: All Pro teams and was a good player, one of
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: the great tight ends of his ear for the San
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: Diego charge the old San Diego Chargers. He was on
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: an All Decade team, which is nice. And I'm trying
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: to remember. Maybe I'm just my memory's going, but I
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: can't remember a signature moment of Antonio Gates' career, can you.
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: I can't. What was his defining moment that you said, well,
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: that's a Hall of Fame moment? What was it? Jared
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: Allen again a good player with the Vikings and the
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: Chiefs and was a four time All Pro and mostly
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: mid middling teams that he played on, but individually he
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: was very effective. So he's in good but not great.
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: And Sterling Sharp who made three All Pro teams if
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: you're old enough to remember him with the Green Bay
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: Packers and got hurt and that was it and he
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: played I think it was seven years and he got
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: in in the Hall of Fame and was like, okay, fine,
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: it doesn't get you all. Tingley doesn't get you all excited.
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: But those guys are in the Hall of Fame. Okay,
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: that's fine, they're in, But I'm not gonna go raw rah.
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: I mean, you know, that's just the way it is. Anyway,
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: it is the Ben Mahlor Show. We are here all night,
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: every night during the week and then also on the weekends.

• 13:24
  Speaker 1: If you were out, if you're one of our listeners
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: in Kansas City, you came to the Kansas City Meet

  Speaker 1: Andy Reid. That's Almost Andy Reid, and he is a

• 13:56
  Speaker 1: an impersonator whose claim is that he looks like Andy Reid,
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: and you're having him on an audio only podcast. I said, Yes,

  Speaker 2: Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Meller
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific on
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: We're gonna go to pro bouncy Ball, but we'll get
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: back to the NFL, the big stories in football. The
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: Award Show made for TV Awards Extravaganza in New Orleans,
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: they announced the new members of the Hall of Fame
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: and the e Lime Manny was blocked not in the
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: Hall of Fame. Good job by the Hall of Fame
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: voters there. He is not worthy, certainly not a first
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: ballot Hall of Fame. I wouldn't put him in. Eventually
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: he'll get in, but he doesn't belong there. He just
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: was not worthy as a Hall of Fame level quarterback.
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: We'll talk more about that. Also, the MVP Award. Will
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: do a full Mala monologue later on on this but
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: Josh Allen ends up taking the win, and it's Super
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: Bowl weekend. The only thing Buffalo can win on Super
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: Bowl weekend is the MVP Award, So they've got that.
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: They don't actually get to the Super Bowl over and
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: they do, they don't win it. So Josh Allen beats
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: out Lamar Jackson. That was deemed controversial. So we'll talk
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: more about that as we go through the overnight. But
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: our lead this hour from pro Bouncy Ball. The music
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: stopped music and I was sleeping. I don't know if
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: you know that do an overnight show. So I was sleeping,
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: but the music stopped. On the NBA trade deadline twenty
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: twenty five, a flurry, a flurry of deals. The Wizards
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: sent Marvin Bagley the Third who was supposed to be
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: good but isn't, and Johnny Davis, whoever that is. To
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: the Grizzlies. They got Marcus Smart. Remember when this guy
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: was a big star for the Celtics and he had
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: the green hair and he I believe he had a
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: serial named after him. I was at one of the
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: grocery stores there in Boston, and I saw there was
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: a serial with Marcus Smart's face on it, and I thought, wow,
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: Marcus Smart is big enough to get his own cereal.
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: That's pretty wild. And now he's playing for the Wizards,
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: or maybe he'll be bought out a Dennis Schroeder or Shrewder. Shrewder.
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: He's the guy that said slavery. It's modern day slavery
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: being an NBA ballplayer and being traded. And so he
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: has been traded again. That is now what five teams
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: he has technically been a part of this year. He
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: is re rooted or routed from the Pistons. He was
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: with the Warriors after originally I think he was with
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: the Nets. He went to the Warriors, then he was
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: traded to the Heat, then he was traded to the Jazz,
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: and then now he's ending up with the Pistons. Okay, okay, yeah,
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: he started the year with the Nets, but Warriors, Jazz
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: and so not the Heat, Warriors, Jazz, Pistons. And that's
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: it all right now the Hawks, they made a trade
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: with the People's team. Bog Don Bogdanovic. Bogdon Bogdanovic, who
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: at one point was deemed a pretty good player although
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: he hasn't played well this year, and three second round picks,
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: how valuable are those? Go to the people's team, the
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: Clippers for that man. There goes that man, Terrence Man.
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: He's going to Atlanta, good airport, bad basketball, good airport,
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: and Bones Highland, good name, not a good game. But
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: he's going to the Hawks. So we'll see if bog
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: Bogdanovich can unlock a Clipper team which is in a
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: malaise that All Star break a couple of weeks before
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: the All Star break, malaise that they are in right now.
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: But Bogdanovich goes there. The Hawks also sent DeAndre Hunter
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: to the Cadavers in exchange for Kris LeVert, who I've
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: heard of used to be with the Nets. And there
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: were like other players and second round picks and written
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: draft pick swaps and all that crap. But none of
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: those moves I believe are worthy of a full mall
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: of monologue. So instead we turn our attention to just
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: below the Brooklyn Bridge. Why why not? We have learned
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: that the basketball team that used to be in New
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: Jersey and has been in Brooklyn for many years now,
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: the Nets are working to buy out slash forward guard
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: Ben Simmons, the assie Ben Simmons. He can be yours
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: if you want to sign a player who doesn't like
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: playing basketball. So let us discuss the question. This guy
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: was a big star early on, a top pick in
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: the draft with the Sixers, was an all star and
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: generational talent. Part of the Sixers sucking trust the process
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: where they trusted the process that got them Ben Simmons,
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: who's been hanging out at the halfway house in Brooklyn?
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: So the Nets getting out? Here's the question, as we
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: discussed the Nets getting out of the Ben Simmons business,
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: what does that signify to you? What does that signify
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: to you? So I've got hands of stone, traveling, gypsy
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: and bong and we will combine all of these things
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: together and we hope, we hope to hit on all cylinders.
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: So num burn, I said numb burn. The Brooklyn Nets
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: are not only a basketball team, but they have also
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: finally seen the light. They have crossed the rubicon. And
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: good job, it took you a while. I don't know
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: why it took you so long. Bat job by you,
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: but finally you have wised up. Right. They are now
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: acting like the one of the great moments in my lifetime.
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: In boxing history, there was a boxer whose nickname was
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: hands of Stone, Roberto Robert Durant. Roberto Durant, right, Roberto Durant,
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: No Moss, No moss. And that makes you wonder, that,
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: you know, makes you wonder what exactly got them to
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: this point. Ben Simmons has been the poster boy for
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: what is the modern NBA uber talented check uninterested in
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: playing basketball. Check enigma check check check. He's twenty eight
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: years old. It's now been three seasons below the Brooklyn Bridge.
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: He was acquired James Harden. Ashley was the player that
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: was the James Harden trade who went He was upset
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: with the nets, so he went to the sixers, and
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: then Ben Simmons went back inbound to the nets. And
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: sim has played more than forty games one time with
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: the net. Now I played eighty two, they're supposed to
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: play eighty two. He's played more than forty one time.
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: This season, Ben Simmons has averaged a little over six points,
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: a little over five rebounds, a little less than seven assists,
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: and he's played about twenty five minutes a game. Essentially,
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: he's played hooky yet again this year and now he
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: is on a one way bus ticket out of the
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: Nets organization. So page two, what is next for Ben Simmons.
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: We know he's been fired by the Brooklyn Nets, but
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: what is next for Ben Simmons after getting that buyout?
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: So he is going to do what he's been doing
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: his entire career. Why would he stop? Now it's working.
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: It's not working on the court, but it's working financially.
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: Ben Simmons will continue his life as a traveling gypsy
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: of hoop. A traveling gypsy of hoop, that's Ben Simmons.
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: He will go to the next town, He'll steal more
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: money and then it'll move to another town. He's a
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: con man, he's a confidence man, and he can do
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: it because he's six foot ten and he has all
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: the skills other than the fact he can't shoot. But
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: he is enticing. He is enticing for those that are
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: convinced they have the father Flannagan in them. They can
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: turn around players that it's not going well in their careers.
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: And it takes a village, and they have the right
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: village and all that bull crab And while Simmons has
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: been a versatile defender the few minutes he's played on
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: the court. He's a strong passer for someone his size.
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: He also has the Komodo Dragon in the room, the
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: HeLa Monster, the yips right, can't shoot more than five
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: feet away from the basket. He's a liability. It's We
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: talked about him back in his Philadelphia days, and I
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: remember doing Mallard monologue about him because I was fascinated.
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: And we talk about the Lakers now with Luca and
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: with Lebron, and when those guys start playing together, they
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: will be on the power play on offense, and they'll
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: be shorthanded on defense. Well, the Sixers when they had
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: Ben Simmons and he was a big minute guy in
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: their rotation, they were playing four on five on offense
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: because as long as Ben Simmons was away from the
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: painted area, he wasn't gonna shoot. He was not going
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: to So you knew defensively you didn't have to worry
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: about Ben Simmons when he was out he passed the
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: ball so he could lay off him defensively. And so
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: he's been able to fleece millions, millions and millions of
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: dollars from gullible, unsuspecting NBA executives and Simmons takes that
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: cash up front, gets that guaranteed money, and then he
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: provides an incomplete, substandard performance if he even shows up
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: to work at all. Now I have a little concern
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: because the early reporting indicates the one of the teams
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: interested in Ben Simmons is the People's team. The Clippers
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: are said to be interested. And I really am confused
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: by what's going on over there, because this is the
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: epitome of what you don't want. Uh, this is I
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: don't understand. I guess to the Clippers are trying to
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: corner the market on basketball players who are contaminated with
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: this mindset of not being all that interesting, not having
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: in playing, not being a team that's built on perseverance.
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: And you want want a dog, I need those. I
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: don't need cats. I need dogs. But they got a
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: lot of cats over there in clipper Land right now,
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: injury prone players who have good talent. But Ben Simmons,
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: I guess he could be the apprentice or the understudy
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: to Kawhi Leonard. And then they'll they'll say if they
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: if they do get Ben Simmons, they'll say, well, if
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: we stay healthy, we're gonna win the championship. Of course
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: they'll never stay healthy. Pump the brakes on that right now,
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: All right, now, final point, I want to go back
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: to the NBA trade deadline. Interesting story of what did
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: not happen out of Minnesota, the him Wolves, the Minnesota Timberwolves.
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: Multiple stories throughout the day that Minnesota explored getting into
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: the Kevin Durant sweepstakes. They were thinking about buying a
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: couple of tickets, hoping that they won the fifty to
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: fifty raffle for Kevin Durant and they would reunite him
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: with his buddy Anthony Edwards. So the story was that
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: the Wolves thought that Durant would be open to coming
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: to the winter wonderland of Minnesota. It obviously did not happen. However,
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: they they're saying, well, the buzz was real, it really,
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: it really happened. The rumor was real, all right. So
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: question for the esteem panel, the Timberwolves trying and failing
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: the land Kevin Durant from Phoenix before the NBA trade deadline.
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: Your thoughts on this plot twist out of Minnesota. So
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: I believe based on what I have known of available
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: draft capital and the way that the machine works in
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: the NBA that several executives, in my opinion, for the Timberwolves,
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: dusted off their bong and they were smoking psychedelic drugs
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: out of that bong. A. I don't care how much
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: Kevin Durant likes Anthony Edwards, He's not gonna want to
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: go to the Twin Cities. So that's a non starter.
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: And unless I'm mistaken, and correct me if I am mistaken,
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: hasn't Minnesota because of the Rudy Gobert trade and these
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: other trades, they've made pretty much traded all of their
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: lottery tickets. They don't have any lottery tickets that are
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: worth anything for several years. For several years, they don't
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: have a goodie bag to hand out. There is literally
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: nothing there there that they could have offered that Phoenix
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: would have interest in it. So I mean, let's they
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: got some kind of bag of tricks we don't know
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: about in the Minnesota front office and they could use
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: a Jedi mind trick. I really, I think that's a
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: story that was total bullshoy, is what.
• 27:14
  Speaker 2: I be sure to catch live editions of The Ben
• 27:16
  Speaker 2: Maller Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific.
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: Here we Go, it's Mallard. How about that?
• 27:23
  Speaker 2: To the third degree. This is one big Ben gets
• 27:28
  Speaker 2: grilled too.
• 27:31
  Speaker 3: Michael Parsons made a radio appearance this week where he
• 27:34
  Speaker 3: said that the Cowboys struggled so much that he doesn't
• 27:36
  Speaker 3: think Derrick Henry would have helped them.
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: Ben, Is he right? Yeah, Well you never know, right,
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: you can say that and there's no way to prove
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: that he would have helped him and would not have
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: helped them. All I know about the Dallas Cowboys, right,
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: All I know is that this past season, in terms
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: of rushing game performance, the Dallas Cowboy we're twenty seventh
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: in the NFL. So if they were like fifteenth in
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: the NFL, I think that would have mattered. But what
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: do I know. I just do the overnight show. So
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: he's just saying that to be polite, but I disagree.
• 28:11
  Speaker 3: Next, running back Josh Jacobs also made the rounds and
• 28:15
  Speaker 3: said that he thinks Green Bay needs a guy that's
• 28:17
  Speaker 3: proven to be a number one ride receiver already, and
• 28:20
  Speaker 3: then he was asked if the team should try reuniting
• 28:22
  Speaker 3: with DeVante Adams. He said, if he comes at the
• 28:25
  Speaker 3: right price, tell him to slide. Ben, could you see
• 28:28
  Speaker 3: an Adams Packers reunion.
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: Yes, because Adams is a diminishing asset that the Packers
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: never signed top notch free agents my entire life. They
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: never signed those guys. So Adams is older now, he's
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: coming off a down season. That is the perfect guy.
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: He's from Green Bay, played there a London, so that
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: is the type of player the Packers would bring back
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: the Lambo field next.
• 28:52
  Speaker 3: On Tuesday, the mayor of Saint Petersburg, Florida, said the
• 28:54
  Speaker 3: city is poised to move on from the Rays if
• 28:56
  Speaker 3: they project a new stadium deal. Ben, do you think
• 28:58
  Speaker 3: we could be seeing the end of the Do you
• 29:00
  Speaker 3: think we can be seeing the Rays migrate?
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah? I mentioned this in a previous episode episode of
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: the show. But yeah, I mean Baseball wants to put
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: a team in Nashville. They want to add expansion teams,
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: and they want to put a team in Vegas. And
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: then the A's moved to Vegas, so the Rays could
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: move to Nashville. Ultimately, I think they'll stay. It sounds
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: like they're gonna stay in Florida. I don't believe they're
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: gonna leave. But how do we do you pass this edision?
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: That is a word putting on the board. We the wins,
• 29:28
