  Speaker 2: we will have in about fifteen minutes or so, you'll

  Speaker 2: be able to start voting for the semi finals of

  Speaker 2: So if you're listening live, keep an eye on that,
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: and if you're listening later on on demand on the podcast,
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: it's probably already a So our lead though from the combine. Now, normally,
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: when you talk about the combine, you're talking about the
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: shuttle drill, the forty yard dashtime, some kind of nice.
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: Rumor about a trade. Well, this is new. I don't recall.
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: I've been doing this for a couple of minutes. I
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: don't ever recall talking about something like this. Now, this
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: used to happen all the time back in the day,
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: but there was no social media when this kind of
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: stuff happened.
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: So let me let me set it up this way.
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: So a couple of NFL reporters got into a verbal
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: dust up at the combine, say what yeah, Ian Rapaport,
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: who works for the state sponsor at NFL Media, and
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: Jordan Schultz, who has been hanging out in the Fox
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: box that rocks recently, And so they.
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: Were fighting, if you will, arguing over.
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: A scoop scoopy mixed scoop over Tom Brady and Matthew
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: Stafford in Montana but not Joe Montana.
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: Did you follow along? No, you probably didn't follow on.
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: Let me map it all out for you, and I'm
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: gonna I'm gonna draw a diagram here, point by point
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: so point a. According to Jordan Schultz, Tom Brady recently
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: hosted Matthew Stafford at one of his many homes, this
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: one in Montana, where they spent time together. They went skiing,
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: because what else you do in Montana other than go skiing.
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: The reporting said that Brady has been actively trying to
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: convince Matthew Stafford to turn down the Giants and turn
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: down the Rams and play for our Raiders, who he
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: happens to own a chunk of, but not a majority
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: chunk of. And the discussions are ongoing, all right, so
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: it seems rather benign. It's a harmless report. Off season,
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: Stafford has permission to talk to other teams, so he
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: went to Montana to hang out with Tom Brady, who cares.
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: So.
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: Shortly after that, well, rap Sheet cares.
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: He punched back, and he violated the hippocratic oath of insiders.
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: Rap Sheet said that he reported from sources that Tom
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: Brady and Matthew Stafford just randomly happened to run into
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: each other at a ski resort in Montana. Rappaport said
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: the meeting was unplanned. It was not extensive or in
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: depth or anything like that, and did not include Brady
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: hosting or recruiting Matthew Stafford, despite reports saying otherwise. Okay,
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: shots fired, So you have dueling reports now. This also
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: reportedly led to a humdinger.
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: Of a story.
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: So the story that's making the rounds now in the
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: echo chamber is that Jordan Schultz and Ian Rappaport engaged
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: in a verbal altercation face to face, mano a mano,
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: eye to eye, belly to belly.
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: It happened on.
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: Wednesday afternoon at a Starbucks at the JW. Marriott in
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: downtown Indianapolis. Developing hot dot dot dot.
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: All right, so let us discuss.
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: You've got NFL insiders inan Rappaport and Jordan Schultz sparring,
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: going nose to nose over a dopey Matthew Stafford scoop
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: with Tom Brady, and we have a he said, he
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: said situation. Whose side are you on? You make the call?
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: So I've got game show contestant, doggie bag and team consultant,
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: and we will combine all of these things together and
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: we are going to make a celebrity boxing matches.
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: What we're gonna make now. I don't know if these
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: guys qualify as celebrities. We probably don't.
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: But anyway, all right, so for my first thought here,
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: after eight minutes long Mallard deliberation, I stand on the
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: side of the aisle with Jordan Schultz. This is not
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: that difficult now. His rebuttal made sense. And I mentioned listen,
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: Rapaport violated the the o of the insider that you
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: don't take out the knees of a fellow insider. And
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: well you might think Schultz is not is he doesn't
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: have as much aura as some of these other guys.
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: That's that's his gig, that's what he's in, that's what
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: he does. He's done it for a while. Sony Schultz
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: argument is, if you really think Tom Brady and Matthew
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: Stafford just happened to run any into each other at
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: a ski resort in Montana, as he says, of all places,
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: by chance, at the exact same time, I've got a
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: bridge to sell you.
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: Okay, So what do you think happened here? Now? I
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: have a theory. This is my hypothesis.
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: And Tom Brady is like a game show contestant in
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: this Once he saw the story get out, He's like,
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: I got to play Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: And I believe Brady absolutely is recruiting Matthew Stafford to
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: the Raiders. However, he's trying to keep it on the
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: DL right to down low because he does not want
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: to get the hopes up of anyone. If Stafford burns
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: Brady and then Brady looks like a dumb dumb and
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: the Raiders end up with some turd at quarterback again.
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: So Brady on Who Wants to be a Millionaire used
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: the old phone a friend lifeline from the game show
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: to get some help with a tough question. And if
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: you follow the breadcrumbs, it makes sense. Now, this is
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: just my opinion. You can't sue me for my opinion.
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: But Ian Rappaport was born in Boston. He worked as
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: a Patriot beat writer for three seasons at The Herald
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: when Tom Brady was playing quarterback for the Patriots. So
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: it's fair to say it's logical to believe it more
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: likely than not. TB twelve and rap Sheet have a relationship.
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: They know each other, they likely have each other's phone number.
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: Would it be outrageous to think that Tom Brady, trying
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: to put the kebash on the story, would have sent
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: a text or called Ian Rappaport and said, hey, do
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: me a solid on this.
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: Okay, do me a solid.
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: The irony that this verbal spat happened at a coffee shop,
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: if you don't know the backstory. Now, Schultz, who's been
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: doing this for a while, is in an NFL insider. He
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: is the son of the former Starbucks CEO, the big
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: cheese at Starbucks, Howard Schultz, who also I think screwed
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: up the SuperSonics back in the day. But as we
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: understand it, Rappaport was so taken aback. Someone say he
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: was a flower, he was a pussy willow. Rappaport is
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: the one who called NFL security. If the reporting from
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: what I'm reading here is accurate, so the plot thickens,
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: stay tuned. But of the two reports, the one is
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: much more plausible is the one that Brady and Stafford
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: got together in Montana. Probably figure out it's Montana, who
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: the hell's gonna know where in Montana? And somebody spotted
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: them somewhere and then it got out and so then
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: Brady went into damage cold control.
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: Keep in mind Brady is doing a terrible job with
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: the Raiders.
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: They got rid of Antonio Peers because Brady, supposedly, from
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: what I've heard, told ownership, I'm going to get the
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: Lions offensive coordinator. Ben Johnson's gonna come in here to
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: be a coach, and so they got rid of Antonio
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: Pears to bring in Ben Johnson, and Ben Johnson went
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: to the Bears, and so Brady had to hire the
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: oldest coach in the NFL, Pete care Now, I like
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: Pete Carroll.
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: I think it'll work out. But that's not the plan.
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: That was not the plan Brady got.
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: He got stood up by Ben Johnson, all right, Now
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: turning the page. So there's a part of this Matthew
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: Stafford story which involved Aaron Rogers. So Aaron Rodgers has
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: reportedly said under the table, I love how all stuffs
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: under the table, and then he's a big fan of
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: Sean McVay, the RAM coach Sean McVay.
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: However, at the same time, we are.
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: Told that Rogers also has reached out to the g
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: I A and Ts the Giants. All right, so they've
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: all talked, supposedly about possibly signing with the other New
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: York So what does all of this signal to you?
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: So for me, and this is really the only note
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: that I have on this, it is a doggie back,
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: as in Aaron Rodgers is ready to dine on leftovers.
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: He is perfectly fine and realizes his place in the cosmos.
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: If the Rams send Matthew Stafford to Jersey and the Giants,
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: Rogers will slide on into the penthouse apartment in the
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: Ram facility. If Stafford stays with the Rams, he then
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: heads over to the Giants. Now, this also does confirm
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: that despite chatter that Rogers will not be able to
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: find work and he's going to retire, at least he
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: wants to play. The plan is for him to play
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: another season in the NFL. Otherwise, why would he be
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: out there job hunting if he didn't intend to play
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: in twenty twenty five. Now another player who does intend
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: to play but is looking for a new team. We
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: cartwheel our way now to the Bay Area, well, actually Indianapolis,
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: but that is where forty nine Ers GM.
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: John Lynch is to work for his dad in radio.
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: But John Lynch, his dad ran a cluster of radio
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: stations in San Diego when I started the business. Anyway,
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: John Lynch is the GM there in the forty nine
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: Ers camp, and he says the team will quote try
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: to honor tries a wheel word. They're gonna try to
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: honor Deebo Samuel's trade request. Lynch the big cheese there
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: with the Niners, allowing Deebo to wander around the country
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: and play foot see with interested in NFL teams. Now,
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: Deebo Samuel is leaving San Francisco, that much we believe
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: to be true. You decide where he ends up. So
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: on this we're gonna spend the mallor wheel of speculation.
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: We dust off the mallor there go round and round,
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: big money, big money, no Webby, no webby. Hey stop,
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: all right, the wheel has stopped on a four leaf clover,
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: So I in the wheel.
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: Listen. The wheel's never wrong. It's never wrong.
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: We've got Commanders, Chargers, Broncos and Patriots.
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: Now the way this would work out a couple of
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: years ago, I had PTSD.
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: From Deebo sam As you might know if you listened
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: to the show regularly.
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: The team of my youth, as Tom Looney, like you said,
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: the guy to do the TV show with is the
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: Rams and Deebo Samuel haunted the Rams, not much anymore,
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: but for a couple of years he just killed the Rams.
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: And if you look at what's happened recently, if you're
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: gonna get Deebo sam whether it's Washington, I think the
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: Patriots would be perfect for him because they need some
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: help and he's under contract and he can't really go
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: anywhere unless the Niners release him, et cetera. So I
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: think Pats would be the top there. But does he
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: want to play in New England?
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: Who knows.
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: But you got Commanders, Chargers, Broncos and Patriots. But you
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: have to bring in a special team consulting an advisor.
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: If you can track him down across the Pearly Gates Poncetelyon,
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: if you can bring in Ponce Delyon man alive Deebo Samuel,
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: what a great pickup. You're in really good shape because
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: Deebo right now, his only elite skill. If you look
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: at all the tools in his toolbox, the one that
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: is the superpower for Deebo in recent years has been
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: walking onto the field with a boombox. Nobody does it
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: better than Deebo pregame warm ups when he comes out
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: of that locker room and stretch down onto the field.
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: And he's got that boom box pumping tunes. That's the
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: way to do it now. His play on the field,
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: eh eh, Deebo Samuel has just eight hundred and six
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: yards some scrimmage. You had it just last year, second
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: lowest mark in his career. The forty nine.
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: Ers likely need some barbecue sauce. They're gonna have to
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: eat thirty one point six million.
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: That is a dead cap charge if they trade Deebo Samuel,
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: and so they'll lose a bunch of salary cap space.
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: We think they will still feel the team. Sources close
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: to the Ben Valor Show tell us the Niners will
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: not be filing for Chapter eleven bankruptcy if they do
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: end up having to trade Deebo Samuel, but stay tuned,
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: things may change. It is the Ben Malor Show. If
• 15:22

  Speaker 2: twenty twenty five.
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: You think, well, that's like the Old West. Who the hell?
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: I mean, they were like horses and cowboys and crap
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: like that. But it's affecting the sports world. We'll get
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: to that coming up in a minute. And the voting
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: is underway. The voting is underway if you would like
• 19:29

• 19:33
  Speaker 2: Influencer of the Year, And you can figure all of
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: that out right now. You can figure that out right
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: now by voting. Just it's on my x feed right
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: there at the top Milkman. Mike in Colorado, says Marconi
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: level opening monologue about these secret meetings occurring in the
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: wild Wild West. Of course, they just happened to be
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: the same place at the same time. And for a
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: crime making a comeback, who's robbing stage coaches?
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: Says Milkman. Who else do we have?
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: Late night drug tester says who knew so much drama
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: can unfold at a Starbucks? I thought it was just
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: a place or writing failed movie scripts, that says the
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: Late night drug tester. Now, when I was a radio stringer,
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: and I'm buddies with some other guys that did this
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: for a living, and we're all around the same age
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: because there's no more radio stringers.
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: They're pretty much all gone now.
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: And a radio stringer is just a reporter that go
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: in the locker room, hold their mic up and ask
• 20:28
  Speaker 2: dumb questions and then get audio that was terrible and
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: then play it on the radio station.
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: Is that a Ben Mallard fun fact?
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I did that for when I was like nineteen twenty,
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: my first gigs in radio.
• 20:41
  Speaker 4: That was a Man Mallard fun fact.
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: And it's a fun job. It's not a job that
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: exists anymore. It's kind of like you know, a payphone
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: repair person. You know, that job doesn't really exist anymore either.
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: But it was a great job because I got to
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: go to games all the time. I was in locker rooms.
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: It was a lot of fun.
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: But there would be situations where other reporters would get
• 20:59
  Speaker 2: upset with some we did. And in these a hole
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: mainly baseball writers who are total schmucks and would get
• 21:06
  Speaker 2: into it and get upset, and so these things.
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: Happen all the time. But there was no social media.
• 21:11
  Speaker 2: But now at the top of the hour, we talked
• 21:13
  Speaker 2: about the media dust up at a Starbucks at the
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: J W. Marriott in Indianapolis where Ian Rappaport of the
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: prob the news service of the NFL, who violated the
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: hippocratic oath of NFL insiders by attacking another insider and
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: then was challenged on it, which I think is.
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: Fair by Jordan Schultz.
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: I mean, Jordan Schultz trying to make it as an
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: insider and Rappaport's ahead of him, and Rappaport's urinating all
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: over him.
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: That's you know, you don't do that.
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: And so Schultz he at least he didn't hide behind
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: his phone, and he confronted Rappaport face to face monol
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: Mono and then Rapaport apparently I don't know, I wasn't there,
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: just from what I'm reading, is a total coward and
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: called NFL security right away. From what I read, I
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: don't mean, maybe they wrote it wrong. I don't know,
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: that's what I read. So Rod, the ambassador of Bakersfield
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: Rights since says a plus on the opening monologue, or
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: on a scale of one to ten thousand, that is
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: a ten thousand. Yeah, well, Rod, I am wearing the
• 22:18
  Speaker 2: hat from the Bakersfield Blaze, a team that we put
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: out of business.
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: Oh, we went to a.
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: Nice steak dinner there and Bakersfield Great Steakhouse, and went
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: into a game when it was one hundred and seventy
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: five degrees, did a malor meet and greeting Bakersfield, and
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: then the team moved.
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: They went out of business.
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: Ryan writes and says, how are you feeling about Nico?
• 22:41
  Speaker 2: Since Nico made the Lakers relevant again. Nico gave the
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: Lakers a lottery ticket, he built, built a Nico statue
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: next to Jerry West.
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: Well, well, we'll see how this plays out.
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: But hey, listen, matter, Lakers aren't winning a championship and
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: Lebron's forty, so it'll be a year or two. It's
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: going to be Luca and that's it. So and we
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: know that doesn't win a championship. It didn't win a
• 23:02
  Speaker 2: championship in Dallas. It won't work in La either. So
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: unless they get another star, because Lebron's he's past the
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: expiration day, still being effective, but not not over the
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: long run.
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: Who else do I have? Page Dan?
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: I can't read that Fergduck says, have you ever thought
• 23:20
  Speaker 2: about using the power of the Malord militia to enact
• 23:23
  Speaker 2: revenge on the people who were jerks to you in
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: high school?
• 23:28
  Speaker 3: Nah?
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: I mean, I think the aging process is effing over
• 23:31
  Speaker 2: the people that went to high school with me.
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: I don't think I need to do anything of that.
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: Don't you love that?
• 23:36
  Speaker 3: Well?
• 23:37
  Speaker 2: The thing that annoys me is they were very They
• 23:38
  Speaker 2: were a holes to me, and then they thought I'd
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: reached some level of celebrity, which I didn't.
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: I do an overnight radio you are a celebrity.
• 23:44
  Speaker 4: Beank.
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: So some people would reach out to me that I
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: knew were schmucks.
• 23:47
  Speaker 2: You know, in total I can't say what I want
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: to say, And so that offended me too, because you
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: wouldn't want to be my friend when I was, you know,
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: the fat kid in high school, but now you want
• 23:55
  Speaker 2: to be my buddy. King Roy writs and says, it's
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: not like Montana's one the five largest states in the
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: Union and have dozens of ski resorts, so Tom Brady
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: and Matthew Stafford were bound to bump into each other.
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: The media is trying to make something out of nothing
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: like usual.
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: I disagree This has all the telltale signs if you
• 24:14
  Speaker 2: follow the bread crumbs, as I said, of Brady and
• 24:17
  Speaker 2: his agent trying to clean up a mess. It doesn't
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: look good for Brady if Stafford's not going to go
• 24:23
  Speaker 2: to the Raiders. And I just I believe the initial
• 24:27
  Speaker 2: report and this is damaged control by the Brady contingent,
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: and they're using a Brady useful idiot, a guy that
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: was a Patriot beat writer Ian Rappaport, who now works
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: for the Prova.
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: News service of the NFL.
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: All of that, all of that, dread Pie writes and says, Wow,
• 24:43
  Speaker 2: what an opening monologue with the NHL and NBA in
• 24:47
  Speaker 2: full swing, baseball starting up. You're beating the boring NFL gossip. Well,
• 24:52
  Speaker 2: why don't you get your own little dumb overnight showed,
• 24:54
  Speaker 2: dread Pie. But why are you talking about your stupid
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: NBA and you're opening monologue?
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: How about that? And then no one will listen and
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: you'll lose your job.
• 25:02
  Speaker 2: You want me to get fired, dread You want me
• 25:04
  Speaker 2: to sit here and talk about a regular season NBA
• 25:06
  Speaker 2: game or something like that, and I'll lose my fricking job.
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: You want me to be unemployed. Screw you dread pie.
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: Screw you.
• 25:13

• 25:16

• 25:30

• 25:33
  Speaker 2: of speculation seems to be broken, may need to be readjusted.
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: I think is the wheel, okay, Lorain. Today was the
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: first time the wheel has worked in months. Yeah. I
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: didn't realize the wheel was a wheel until I was like, oh,
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: here's a wheel. Yeah, yeah, that is the mallor wheel
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: of speculation. Yeah, it's a fun little button march. I
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: can go like this, Hey, let's spind the wheel. All right.
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: Here we go, big money, big money, big money, big money. Stop. Yeah,
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: all right. So I love this.
• 26:07
  Speaker 2: I was going to say this, but I want to
• 26:08
  Speaker 2: get to it right now. This is great And what
• 26:09
  Speaker 2: Texan calls I promise eight seven seven ninety nine on
• 26:12
  Speaker 2: Fox eight seven seven nine nine six six three sixty nine.
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: So this is a crime, right, out of the eighteen
• 26:20
  Speaker 2: hundreds wild West, those spaghetti westerns back in the day,
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: and it is back in vote we're talking about the
• 26:28
  Speaker 2: train heist, the train robbery, and so what's been going on.
• 26:32
  Speaker 2: I don't know if you saw this or not. I
• 26:33
  Speaker 2: was reading about this earlier and I thought, man, that's
• 26:35
  Speaker 2: a wild story. So in these little remote parts of
• 26:39
  Speaker 2: the western desert in California and Arizona, really remote parts
• 26:43
  Speaker 2: of California and Arizona, there are packs of vigilantes that
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: are robbing trains out in the middle of nowhere, no
• 26:52
  Speaker 2: cameras around, nothing. They're just it's a perfect crime because
• 26:55
  Speaker 2: there's no no one to track you down, or so
• 26:57
  Speaker 2: they thought. Anyway, the reason I'm bringing this up on
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: a sports talk radio show is because the crime, the
• 27:04
  Speaker 2: crime ring has been stealing Nike shoes. Holy, Rob Parker, Batman,
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: don't tell Rob Parker about this. Rob's gonna get upset.
• 27:14
  Speaker 2: He loves those Nike shoes. But they've netted millions of
• 27:18
  Speaker 2: dollars worth of Nike shoes. And so they weren't trying
• 27:23
  Speaker 2: to get gold bou Yon on the train or anything
• 27:25
  Speaker 2: like that. They were targeting Nike shoes. And also electronics
• 27:29
  Speaker 2: in these various train heights. And does that not sound
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: like something you would have seen like at the Old
• 27:35
  Speaker 2: West back in the day. In less than a year,
• 27:38
  Speaker 2: this band of vigilantes they robbed at least ten trains.
• 27:43
  Speaker 2: They pulled up ten train heights in Arizona and California,
• 27:47
  Speaker 2: and they the loot they took was around two million
• 27:52
  Speaker 2: dollars worth of Nike shoes. However, they didn't get away
• 27:58
  Speaker 2: with it. More than six The people have been caught
• 28:02
  Speaker 2: by the FEDS and they're being charged with various crimes
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: in connection with the ten train heist. And this bridged
• 28:13
  Speaker 2: twenty twenty three into twenty twenty four. So two million
• 28:17
  Speaker 2: dollars worth of Nike.
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: Shoes a lot. I thought that was a fake story.
• 28:21
  Speaker 2: I saw it and I was like, there's no Yeah,
• 28:25
  Speaker 2: well they say those shoes are worth two million, but
• 28:27
  Speaker 2: for Nike, they probably cost about sixty cents each to
• 28:30
  Speaker 2: make a a sweatshop, right.
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: And how they make the whole Nike out like that, Ben, No,
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: I can't call them out like that. No, Nike is
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: one of Oregon Duck's biggest sponsors. Oh yeah, that's right,
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: all right, mister nice guy.
• 28:48
  Speaker 2: I gets a little late. He says, Howard Schultz father
• 28:52
  Speaker 2: was the CEO of Starbucks. Well, it's actually the Insider guy.
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: We mentioned that, but thanks for listening, He writes in
• 29:00
  Speaker 2: says where's the Boston Hater? Well, we have not heard
• 29:04
  Speaker 2: from the Boston hater in sometime. We are worried that
• 29:06
  Speaker 2: the Boston hater has moved to a higher place, penthouse
• 29:11
  Speaker 2: in the sky. We don't know for sure, but he
• 29:15
  Speaker 2: never missed a Boston team being eliminated, ever from calling
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: up in celebrating and doing a butter fingles butter fingers.
• 29:25
  Speaker 2: Burrelson jokes, Yeah, all that, but we have not heard
• 29:30
  Speaker 2: from the Boston hater in sometime, and we don't know.
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: We hope he's still with us, but.
• 29:37
  Speaker 2: We don't know for sure. Anyway, let's go the phones.
• 29:40
  Speaker 2: Let's see your aeny meenie miney mo. Let's start out
• 29:43
  Speaker 2: with a man who is well known. You know this name,
• 29:47
  Speaker 2: and he is my go to When I need garbage
• 29:49
  Speaker 2: picked up.
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: I go to this guy, Danny DeVito in Boston. Hello, Danny, welcome.
• 29:56
  Speaker 3: How are you miss Sanela?
• 29:58
  Speaker 2: If I was any better, I'd be a sock, but
• 30:02
  Speaker 2: not a red sock. Well, maybe I would they might
• 30:04
  Speaker 2: make the playoffs?
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: Who knows.
• 30:06
  Speaker 2: I hear you.
• 30:06
  Speaker 3: Hey, I'm calling a couple of things. Hey, I'll make
• 30:08
  Speaker 3: it fast. He talked about this player a couple of
• 30:11
  Speaker 3: days ago. Michahpassus he should want to be traded because
• 30:15
  Speaker 3: Dallas is a joke. They've been a joke for thirty years,
• 30:19
  Speaker 3: and Jerry Jones is uh, it's crazy, right, So I
• 30:23
  Speaker 3: mean they really he shouldn't want to get out of there.
• 30:26
  Speaker 3: He doesn't want nothing anyways with him.
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: So I disagree. Here's why.
• 30:31
  Speaker 2: Let me tell you why I disagree, Because Michaeh Parsons
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: is all about promoting the brand Michael Parsons. And what
• 30:37
  Speaker 2: better NFL team to promote yourself with than the Dallas Cowboys,
• 30:42
  Speaker 2: right for the podcast and all that.
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: I mean, you are a made man when you play
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: for the Cowboys.
• 30:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that is true. But he's not going to win
• 30:49
  Speaker 3: nothing over there. As you know, they got that fraud.
• 30:53
  Speaker 3: What's the name of what's this hold on?
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: All right? We're trying to find the name of a fraud.
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: Is that Dak Prescott? Is he the Prescott?
• 31:03
  Speaker 3: Yea Trescott Prescott the fraud as you know. And then
• 31:07
  Speaker 3: there's another thing to him. I'm calling you about the
• 31:11
  Speaker 3: Knicks of the biggest fraud in the hoops league. As
• 31:14
  Speaker 3: you know, every year there's a team that goes out
• 31:16
  Speaker 3: there and makes my moves. They make trade and they
• 31:20
  Speaker 3: and they trade away the whole team and then the
• 31:22
  Speaker 3: biggest fraud going. I sat down, I watched that team
• 31:25
  Speaker 3: on Sunday, and they have the biggest choke in the league.
• 31:28
  Speaker 3: They are not going nowhere. I know they're going to
• 31:30
  Speaker 3: the playoffs, but they're not gonna It's gonna be one
• 31:33
  Speaker 3: and done for the Knicks.
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: How much money do you lose in that game.
• 31:39
  Speaker 3: I didn't bet the game.
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: I bet the game. Really, I'm proud of you. I
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: almost you didn't bet the game. I thought you lost
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: some money on the game. I thought that's why you

• 31:49
  Speaker 1: the game.
