- 0:10Speaker 1: Okase bigger story, toss up question, bigger story the thunder
- 0:15Speaker 1: historic offensive explosion or the Nuggets complete and total collapse.
- 0:23Speaker 1: I'll discuss that. How do the Joker and Nuggets overcome
- 0:27Speaker 1: that stink bomb performance in Oklahoma? Now, Internet investigators believe
- 0:32Speaker 1: that the NBA assigned Scott Foster to referee this game
- 0:37Speaker 1: to ensure Oklahoma.
- 0:38Speaker 2: City ended up tying the series. Where are you at
- 0:42Speaker 2: on this grand conspiracy theory? Discuss that?
- 0:47Speaker 1: And here we go off into the wild blue yonder
- 0:50Speaker 1: in our number two.
- 0:56Speaker 3: You're listening to Fox Sports.
- 0:57Speaker 1: Radio now, way, when you're in the dust ball, you're
- 1:01Speaker 1: not supposed to actually turn to dust. But somebody didn't
- 1:04Speaker 1: let that team from Colorado know that. Welcome in the
- 1:08Speaker 1: beginning of another hour of the Ben Mahlor Show. We
- 1:12Speaker 1: are in the air everywhere within earshot as we are
- 1:18Speaker 1: in a sticky situation coastuck coast, border to border and
- 1:25Speaker 1: beyond on the mast and blisteringly powerful microphones of FSR
- 1:32Speaker 1: and modating live from control as in cruise Control all
- 1:39Speaker 1: night from the Fox sports radio Studios as approved by

- 2:07Speaker 1: buying show be so our lead this hour is from
- 2:11Speaker 1: Oklahoma and that is where the Western Conference semi Finals
- 2:15Speaker 1: game number two, your peace sign game number two.
- 2:24Speaker 2: Now s GA for ok C.
- 2:30Speaker 1: All right, that was the matchup. So yet he had
- 2:32Speaker 1: the MVP. It is hard to believe that he's not
- 2:35Speaker 1: gonna win the MVP. Shaw jogis Alexander and Oklahoma City
- 2:40Speaker 1: looking to avoid the embarrassment of losing at home again
- 2:45Speaker 1: and trying to even things up with the Jokers Den Vernugas.
- 2:49Speaker 1: This was the set up here was expected to be
- 2:51Speaker 1: a competitive game.
- 2:52Speaker 2: I don't know if you.
- 2:53Speaker 1: Saw it, good news. If you missed it, you are
- 2:58Speaker 1: in a better situation than me. He didn't miss anything.
- 3:01Speaker 1: Holy Toledo. What a terrible game in terms of competition,
- 3:05Speaker 1: So he had Shay Jogis Alexander who had thirty four points,
- 3:09Speaker 1: and then play as many minutes as you and I did.
- 3:11Speaker 1: In the fourth quarter, he only played three quarters. The
- 3:13Speaker 1: reason he only played three quarters is because the thunder
- 3:17Speaker 1: put the Wahammie on Denver a revenge performance. OKC set
- 3:24Speaker 1: a league record and wins one forty nine.
- 3:29Speaker 2: To one ZHO six. Yes, let me repeat that.
- 3:32Speaker 1: They won by forty three points over the Denver basketball team,
- 3:38Speaker 1: and now the Western Conference semifinals tied up at one
- 3:42Speaker 1: game a piece.
- 3:43Speaker 2: How lopsided was it? Thanks for asking.
- 3:46Speaker 1: Oklahoma City set an NBA postseason record for first half.
- 3:51Speaker 2: Points with eighty seven.
- 3:53Speaker 1: They put up eighty seven points in twenty four minutes.
- 3:58Speaker 1: That broke the record of eighty eighty six points. They
- 4:01Speaker 1: probably think that record was probably set back in the eighties. No,
- 4:04Speaker 1: it was said within the last ten years, back in
- 4:07Speaker 1: twenty seventeen, which seems like it's a lot closer than
- 4:09Speaker 1: ten years ago. But June of twenty seventeen, the Cleveland
- 4:13Speaker 1: Cadavers against the Golden State Warriors in Game four of
- 4:16Speaker 1: the NBA Finals, but eighty seven points a new record
- 4:20Speaker 1: for a playoff game for Oklahoma City, the Thunder led
- 4:23Speaker 1: by as many as forty nine points forty nine point
- 4:29Speaker 1: lead in a second round playoff game. So let us
- 4:31Speaker 1: discuss toss up question bigger story the thunders historic offensive
- 4:39Speaker 1: explosion or the Nuggets complete and total collapse. So my
- 4:46Speaker 1: observations on this, I've got quantum, leap, porta potty, and liberty,
- 4:52Speaker 1: and we will combine all of these things together and
- 4:57Speaker 1: we are going to have a your wounds party, which
- 5:01Speaker 1: I think is what they're doing in Denver.
- 5:03Speaker 2: They're licking their wounds.
- 5:04Speaker 1: The better story, almost always, all right, Number one.
- 5:09Speaker 2: Story is in the losing locker room.
- 5:12Speaker 1: This was a biblical beatdown, Biblical beatdown. This was Goliath
- 5:18Speaker 1: versus you know who, and Goliath won. This was a
- 5:21Speaker 1: Goliath win Oklahoma City in a domination situation across the board.
- 5:28Speaker 2: Now there was a little bit of funny business. We're
- 5:30Speaker 2: gonna get to that in a minute.
- 5:32Speaker 1: And we didn't watch the second half. We made the
- 5:36Speaker 1: editorial decision at halftime. We watched Charles Barkley with Ernie Johnson,
- 5:41Speaker 1: Kenny Smith and Shaquille O'Neal, and then when halftime ended,
- 5:44Speaker 1: we turned the game off and then we went back
- 5:47Speaker 1: to it on the post game. So we did not
- 5:50Speaker 1: watch the second half, and so we'll focus on the
- 5:52Speaker 1: first half. If you watched like us, like we were
- 5:57Speaker 1: watching the first half, I'm pretty sure that my eyeballs
- 6:02Speaker 1: moving back and forth at the television put more of
- 6:05Speaker 1: an effort into the game than Denver did.
- 6:08Speaker 2: How bad was it? It was so bad? Thanks for asking.
- 6:12Speaker 1: The Kole jochicch and the Nuggets underwent a quantum leap,
- 6:17Speaker 1: a metamorphosis in this game. They became bullfighters, and if
- 6:22Speaker 1: you've ever been to a bullfight or seen one on television,
- 6:25Speaker 1: they were the mattador ole ole O lay ole on defense,
- 6:29Speaker 1: lackluster snagnet Oklahoma City.
- 6:33Speaker 2: It was. It was so ridiculous.
- 6:34Speaker 1: At one point, it looked like you were watching the
- 6:36Speaker 1: old Harlem Globe Trotters.
- 6:37Speaker 2: From back in the day.
- 6:39Speaker 1: They shot almost sixty percent okase did in the first
- 6:43Speaker 1: half of that game. They won all of the hustle stats,
- 6:46Speaker 1: all of them. As Jill Gis Alexander was slicing and dicing.
- 6:51Speaker 1: You look at the points of the paint, second chance points,
- 6:54Speaker 1: fast break points, the rebounds, everything, every the fifty to
- 6:57Speaker 1: fifty balls, the raffle balls, all all that stuff, all
- 7:01Speaker 1: right now, page two, So how do the Joker and
- 7:05Speaker 1: the Nuggets overcome this absolute stink bomb in Okasee?
- 7:11Speaker 2: And it was a stink bomb. This was flatulence in
- 7:14Speaker 2: the air everywhere.
- 7:15Speaker 1: And yeah, so you go to the porta potty and
- 7:20Speaker 1: you take the wisdom of Eagles Super Bowl winning quarterback
- 7:25Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts, who famously said after an absolute dud against
- 7:30Speaker 1: the Cowboys, he said, when you take your deuce, you
- 7:34Speaker 1: don't sit there and.
- 7:35Speaker 2: Look at it. You flush it and you move on.
- 7:37Speaker 1: Now, it's very hard to flush in a porta potty,
- 7:40Speaker 1: very hard to flush. Every time I've gone to a
- 7:42Speaker 1: porta potty, things are stacked on top of each other,
- 7:44Speaker 1: if you know what I mean.
- 7:45Speaker 2: But it's really how you react.
- 7:47Speaker 1: I mean, we are looking at a best of five
- 7:50Speaker 1: series if my malor math is correct, and Denver does
- 7:53Speaker 1: now have home court advantage over Kyrie's Oklahoma City Thunder.
- 7:58Speaker 1: That's the guy that we know who loves the Thunder
- 8:00Speaker 1: and has interacted with the show. Now, why couldn't these Nuggets,
- 8:05Speaker 1: these Nuggets guys have shown up and played like they
- 8:08Speaker 1: did in the game on Wednesday night. Why couldn't they
- 8:10Speaker 1: have played like that in Game seven against the Clippers
- 8:13Speaker 1: right Denver.
- 8:15Speaker 2: They were huffing and puffing as they were out there.
- 8:18Speaker 1: It looked like they had not one, not two, not three,
- 8:21Speaker 1: not four, but five James Harden out on the court.
- 8:25Speaker 2: There's a James Harden there. There's a James Harden there.
- 8:27Speaker 2: There's a James Harden over there. There's a James Harden
- 8:29Speaker 2: over there. Everywhere's James Harden.
- 8:30Speaker 1: Playoff Harden everywhere you look, playoff Harden everywhere. All right,
- 8:35Speaker 1: final point. Now, let's get to the Komodo dragon in
- 8:39Speaker 1: the room if you will. If you didn't see this game,
- 8:44Speaker 1: you probably don't know why I'm going with this. The
- 8:47Speaker 1: official became part of the story. So well, it doesn't matter.
- 8:50Speaker 1: The Nuggets were down by forty nine points, Oklahoma City
- 8:53Speaker 1: won by forty three points. It doesn't matter. But I've
- 8:56Speaker 1: got a talk show to do, so to me, it matters.
- 8:59Speaker 1: Scott Fought who had been out with a calf injury
- 9:05Speaker 1: and not officiating game I think since back in March,
- 9:07Speaker 1: so he was out, but he was the crew chief
- 9:10Speaker 1: Scott Foster for game number two. So Scott Foster was
- 9:14Speaker 1: out his first playoff game of twenty twenty five. Now,
- 9:21Speaker 1: Internet investigators believe the NBA assigned Scott Foster to this
- 9:27Speaker 1: game to ensure that Oklahoma City would tie this series up.
- 9:33Speaker 2: So where are you at on this one? Again?
- 9:36Speaker 1: Internet salus believe they've uncracked the code, that the NBA
- 9:41Speaker 1: purposely put Scott Foster out there to make sure that
- 9:44Speaker 1: Oklahoma City tied up the series. So on this one,
- 9:49Speaker 1: my reaction, I have a cheshire Cat smile on my
- 9:52Speaker 1: face right now, from ear to ear, I just do.
- 9:55Speaker 1: Scott Foster is like the last of the Mohigans. I
- 10:00Speaker 1: grew up in my wheelhouse. In my era, there was
- 10:04Speaker 1: the shady referee. Typically in baseball. The last real shady
- 10:10Speaker 1: umpire was Angel Hernandez, and Angel Hernandez is no longer
- 10:15Speaker 1: unped Baseball finally was able to force him out. And
- 10:19Speaker 1: the NFL's had a few officials over the years that
- 10:22Speaker 1: you thought there might be some something.
- 10:24Speaker 2: Going on there, but not really now.
- 10:27Speaker 1: And then you look at basketball and you've got Scott Foster,
- 10:31Speaker 1: the last one standing, the last one left.
- 10:35Speaker 2: It's the twilight zone. All the other crooked officials.
- 10:39Speaker 1: Have either died off, or retired or been fired, but
- 10:43Speaker 1: you've got Scott Foster, who was Buddies if I'm not mistaken,
- 10:46Speaker 1: as I understand it with Tim Donahey who was fixing
- 10:49Speaker 1: NBA games back in the day.
- 10:51Speaker 2: So you got Scott Foster, who get.
- 10:53Speaker 1: Many people think is involved in some funny business and
- 10:58Speaker 1: a lot of the belief is that that he he
- 11:00Speaker 1: was there as a secret agent for Oklahoma City.
- 11:03Speaker 2: Are you buying any of this?
- 11:05Speaker 1: No, the NBA would never fix any games. We know
- 11:08Speaker 1: the games have been doctored with again Tim Donnie. So
- 11:14Speaker 1: to me, this is a liberty story. A liberty story.
- 11:18Speaker 1: When the legend becomes the fact, you print the legend.
- 11:21Speaker 1: The man who shot Liberty Founce an old movie in Hollywood,
- 11:25Speaker 1: and it's true. When the legend becomes the fact, you
- 11:27Speaker 1: print the legend. And the Nuggets, now, I'm not gonna.
- 11:31Speaker 2: Sit here and say they played well.
- 11:32Speaker 1: They didn't play well, but they were swimming against the
- 11:34Speaker 1: tide the early part of the game. The early part
- 11:38Speaker 1: of the game that the tide was the tempo.
- 11:41Speaker 2: Set by the officials.
- 11:43Speaker 1: It did appear that the officiating crew favored Oklahoma City.
- 11:48Speaker 1: Let me explain, early on in the game, you had
- 11:52Speaker 1: some early soft foul calls on Denver in particular Nakole Jokisch,
- 11:58Speaker 1: who's always complaining vetching the referees. But it did look
- 12:01Speaker 1: like some of those calls early on were we're not
- 12:04Speaker 1: kosher and so, and then it appeared that the Oklahoma
- 12:09Speaker 1: City team was been giving leeway. They were giving leeway,
- 12:12Speaker 1: the benefit of the doubt, and that they were able
- 12:15Speaker 1: to play a little a little spicyer, shall we say, right,
- 12:20Speaker 1: moving screens, hacking yokics, things like that. Now, before you
- 12:25Speaker 1: dismiss this, oh, you're just an overnight conspiracy guy. What
- 12:29Speaker 1: do you know at Let me put my tinfoil hat
- 12:33Speaker 1: on and go through the numbers on this. So Scott
- 12:36Speaker 1: Foster has officiated over sixteen hundred regular season games. He
- 12:41Speaker 1: has worked over two hundred and forty playoff games. He's
- 12:45Speaker 1: done twenty four NBA finals. He is the, if not
- 12:50Speaker 1: the most, he's at near the very top most experienced referees.
- 12:54Speaker 1: Do you know what Scott Foster's nickname.
- 12:56Speaker 2: Is in basketball? Do you know what his nickname is?
- 12:59Speaker 1: No, his nickname is the Extender. Why is he known
- 13:05Speaker 1: as the Extender? It's kind of like this old TV show,
- 13:10Speaker 1: The A Team back in the day, and they've made
- 13:13Speaker 1: some remakes of that. I think they made a movie
- 13:15Speaker 1: a few years back. But the A Team and their
- 13:20Speaker 1: whole mantra. Right, there were a crack commando unit, the
- 13:23Speaker 1: A Team, and.
- 13:25Speaker 2: They gave this whole rant. You know, they were soldiers
- 13:28Speaker 2: of fortune.
- 13:28Speaker 1: They say, if you have a problem, if you have
- 13:31Speaker 1: an issue, and you've got that problem and no one
- 13:37Speaker 1: can help you, Right, you have a problem.
- 13:39Speaker 2: No one else can help you.
- 13:42Speaker 1: And if you can find them, maybe you can can
- 13:45Speaker 1: hire the A Team.
- 13:47Speaker 2: In the NBA.
- 13:48Speaker 1: If you've got a series that you want to make
- 13:51Speaker 1: sure it's a close series and it's extended for television
- 13:54Speaker 1: ratings purposes, who you gonna call.
- 13:56Speaker 2: You're gonna call your.
- 13:57Speaker 1: Version of the A Team the Extender, like Alfioso named
- 14:01Speaker 1: the Extender Scott Foster, who's often been associated with games
- 14:06Speaker 1: where the trailing team wins to extend the series, thus
- 14:10Speaker 1: the nickname the Extender, often with his own proprietary blend
- 14:17Speaker 1: of controversy where he's involved in some controversial foul calls
- 14:23Speaker 1: or technical fouls or whatever.
- 14:24Speaker 2: Now I went back and I looked at the numbers,
- 14:27Speaker 2: because why not.
- 14:28Speaker 1: The data shows that home teams win over sixty percent
- 14:33Speaker 1: of the games he officiates and say, well, that's kind
- 14:37Speaker 1: of within the margin of error in terms of generally
- 14:40Speaker 1: the home team usually wins more than the road team,
- 14:43Speaker 1: so does that prove anything? But then you have to
- 14:46Speaker 1: go on a game by game basis and say, okay,
- 14:48Speaker 1: what about in playoff series when he's officiating and it's
- 14:52Speaker 1: the team that's trailing, does that team win? And I
- 14:55Speaker 1: don't have those numbers. I haven't gone that deep down
- 14:58Speaker 1: the rabbit hole. I will at some point on a
- 15:02Speaker 1: slow day, I will do that, but I will not
- 15:05Speaker 1: do that right now. All right, your thoughts if you
- 15:07Speaker 1: want to comment on any of this. It is an
- 15:09Speaker 1: interactive experience if you want to be part. Otherwise I'll
- 15:13Speaker 1: just be replaced someday by AI and no one will
- 15:15Speaker 1: be here.
- 15:16Speaker 2: But I am here now.

- 15:42Speaker 1: Hour, and a one pretty big name is being called out,
- 15:49Speaker 1: essentially being called out for malingering.
- 15:53Speaker 2: A well known pro bouncy ball player being accused of malingering.
- 15:57Speaker 2: It's a big word. It's a violation.
- 15:59Speaker 1: In the military, you're not supposed to be a malingering soldier,
- 16:03Speaker 1: but in sports you can be a malingering player.

- 18:07Speaker 1: They've created by blowing twenty point leads in the first
- 18:10Speaker 1: two games against the Knickerbockers, who go back to New
- 18:13Speaker 1: York now down I ninety five a chance to they're
- 18:17Speaker 1: already stuck the dagger into the Celtics. They can really
- 18:19Speaker 1: go next level if they win on Saturday, and then
- 18:21Speaker 1: you're talking about a sweep, which would be wild, wild
- 18:25Speaker 1: and crazy. And how soon before the stories pop out that, well,
- 18:30Speaker 1: the Celtics there's some turmoil in the locker room because
- 18:33Speaker 1: the team's going to be sold and Jalen Brown's going
- 18:35Speaker 1: to be traded, and two or three other guys are
- 18:38Speaker 1: going to be traded, so they get under the apron.
- 18:40Speaker 2: And dollars to donuts.
- 18:43Speaker 1: I'll bet you that if this thing continues to go
- 18:46Speaker 1: the direction it's going for the Celtics, you're going to
- 18:48Speaker 1: see all these stories popping up about the players upset
- 18:51Speaker 1: because they're going to get traded, and the changes are
- 18:54Speaker 1: going to be made because the new owners a tight wad,
- 18:56Speaker 1: not going to spend a kind of money, and very
- 18:59Speaker 1: upset people complaining about that.
- 19:02Speaker 2: So we'll see if that transparts.
- 19:05Speaker 1: And also the Nuggets who just didn't have anything, and
- 19:09Speaker 1: then the officials, Scott Foster his crew made sure that they.
- 19:13Speaker 2: Didn't have anything going on there as well. Let's go

- 19:43Speaker 2: Okay, thank you.
- 19:46Speaker 1: See that's that's another classic call for that's Tony in
- 19:49Speaker 1: the Bay Area.
- 19:51Speaker 2: He made Lee jump. That's very funny. Uh you boys?
- 19:57Speaker 1: You see you see somebody new is not not a
- 20:00Speaker 1: listener to the show and just is sitting in that
- 20:03Speaker 1: chair and you just pounce, You just attack.
- 20:07Speaker 2: That's good. You knew it smelled fish. I did. I
- 20:10Speaker 2: did I know Joe DOGG and some of the other dog. Yeah,
- 20:15Speaker 2: that don't know an F dog. That's that's great. You'll
- 20:19Speaker 2: have to hear the podcast for that. So now I'm concerned. No, no,
- 20:23Speaker 2: I leave that on there.
- 20:24Speaker 1: Okay, So now I'm worried that these other callers are
- 20:27Speaker 1: also phony phone calls because I see some names here
- 20:30Speaker 1: that I don't recognize.
- 20:31Speaker 2: So now I'm thinking every call is phony, that every
- 20:34Speaker 2: call called for new callers. Okay, I did. I did
- 20:38Speaker 2: ask for new people to call in.
- 20:40Speaker 1: But now I'm like thinking, maybe this is like, let's
- 20:41Speaker 1: get let's get some jokes in on Lee the producer.
- 20:45Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't care, let's keep going.
- 20:48Speaker 1: Why not say hello to Ron in Rochester, the Flower City,
- 20:53Speaker 1: I think, depending on which Rochester is in, I don't know,
- 20:55Speaker 1: maybe the Minnesota Rochester, Hello, Ron, Welcome.
- 21:00Speaker 4: Rochester in New York crowd Syracuse graduate. I'm a holdover
- 21:05Speaker 4: from the last guy. I was just saying, how why
- 21:09Speaker 4: the sels Pennsylvania hold on?
- 21:14Speaker 3: Hold?
- 21:15Speaker 2: So you're a holdover? Who's the last guy.
- 21:20Speaker 4: The last show we were talking about, uh the picking straight.
- 21:26Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, but I've been on the air now, it's
- 21:28Speaker 1: my second hour and the show before me doesn't take calls.
- 21:34Speaker 4: That's weird. Sod you?
- 21:38Speaker 2: Well, I'm no, I haven't even talked about the George anyway.
- 21:41Speaker 2: Did you just called in randomly?
- 21:42Speaker 4: Like?
- 21:42Speaker 1: Did you just have the numbers saved on your phone?
- 21:44Speaker 1: It was very bizarre. Uh No, I've talked to Basketball.
- 21:48Speaker 1: I haven't talked to George. Okay, so you have it
- 21:51Speaker 1: on your phone, so you thought.
- 21:52Speaker 4: I hear your yes, then yes, I done. Never heard
- 22:01Speaker 4: of him all the time. I love that.
- 22:03Speaker 2: Oh good, I'm glad. I'm feel free to use that.
- 22:05Speaker 1: Make sure to plug the show to get try to
- 22:06Speaker 1: get people to listen to the show that that would
- 22:08Speaker 1: help us out.
- 22:08Speaker 2: Run. Try to get your friends to listen to the podcast.
- 22:10Speaker 2: That would be good.
- 22:11Speaker 4: So listen. So let me tell you something about So.
- 22:14Speaker 4: I grew up in Rochester, went to Syracuse University, he
- 22:17Speaker 4: moved to New York City, was working in advertising, and
- 22:20Speaker 4: I was working on the McDonald's account for New York City.
- 22:24Speaker 4: Has one guy and like twenty girls in my in
- 22:27Speaker 4: my group, and I voted to keep w FIN to
- 22:31Speaker 4: buy w FIN in nineteen eighty nine, eighty eight. And
- 22:36Speaker 4: if it wasn't for me, you know, mad Dog and
- 22:39Speaker 4: sports radio, none of any of that stuff. We're being squashed.
- 22:43Speaker 4: And you'll thank me for making it happen.
- 22:45Speaker 1: So you're saying that you Ron are the man that
- 22:48Speaker 1: saved sports talk radio and without you, yes, none of
- 22:54Speaker 1: that would have happened. You saved the entire format. Why
- 22:58Speaker 1: is this not a documentary? I feel like should be
- 23:00Speaker 1: a documentary.
- 23:01Speaker 2: Run.
- 23:01Speaker 1: I feel like your story would be a great documentary
- 23:03Speaker 1: the guy that saves sports talk radio? It really should
- 23:08Speaker 1: wouldn't that be like a wouldn't that be a great hold?
- 23:12Speaker 2: Is it?
- 23:12Speaker 1: Wouldn't that be like a Netflix one of those Netflix
- 23:16Speaker 1: docuseries type deals?
- 23:17Speaker 2: Right? Yeah?
- 23:20Speaker 1: Yeah?
- 23:22Speaker 2: Right?
- 23:23Speaker 1: Is there a delay? I feel like there's an I
- 23:25Speaker 1: F B delay, Like there's a satellite delay, there's a
- 23:27Speaker 1: hook up delay?
- 23:28Speaker 2: Is there a delay?
- 23:29Speaker 1: Wrong?
- 23:29Speaker 5: But I don't. I don't think there is one.
- 23:33Speaker 4: I thought you're in it's really weird. I mean, I'm listen.
- 23:36Speaker 4: I'm a real person, you know, and I think you're
- 23:38Speaker 4: really funny, and you know, I enjoy listening at you.
- 23:42Speaker 4: Can I tell my picking thing and then my funny
- 23:44Speaker 4: Frank cohera story.
- 23:48Speaker 2: I only have time. I only have time for I
- 23:50Speaker 2: only have time.
- 23:51Speaker 4: See.
- 23:51Speaker 2: I think, is this ai? Maybe this is like an
- 23:52Speaker 2: AI machine? You think of Lorai?
- 23:54Speaker 4: This is like AI?
- 23:55Speaker 1: How about this is Ron? Is it possible that Ron
- 23:58Speaker 1: is not? Is he AI? Or a lizard person?
- 24:02Speaker 2: How about that? You couldn't he?
- 24:08Speaker 4: I'm real?
- 24:09Speaker 2: Are you sure?
- 24:10Speaker 4: I'll tell you my Frank?
- 24:11Speaker 2: Are you a lizard? Are you? Are you saying you're
- 24:13Speaker 2: not a lizard person?
- 24:14Speaker 4: Frank Harrison?
- 24:16Speaker 2: Are you a lizard person.
- 24:17Speaker 4: I'm not at all.
- 24:19Speaker 2: Okay, that's what a lizard person would say. They would say,
- 24:21Speaker 2: they're not a.
- 24:23Speaker 1: Yeah again, I don't understand.
- 24:28Speaker 2: I don't understand the delay. I don't get to delay,
- 24:31Speaker 2: go ahead.
- 24:34Speaker 4: It's really weird. So I lived in New York City
- 24:36Speaker 4: for twenty years and I was in the Sheridan a
- 24:38Speaker 4: fifty second street in Broadway, and I could see a
- 24:41Speaker 4: star mile away. I think Franco Harris walking by himself
- 24:44Speaker 4: towards me. I'm like, hey, how are you doing. I'm
- 24:46Speaker 4: like you on my wall growing up, is like really,
- 24:49Speaker 4: why did you take me down? I'm like, I went
- 24:50Speaker 4: to college, my mon bahlaha. He's like he was so
- 24:53Speaker 4: cool and you know it, just such a nice guy.
- 24:56Speaker 4: And that was a pretty funny situation.
- 24:59Speaker 1: All right, Well, thank you for one of the more
- 25:01Speaker 1: interesting phone calls there there there he is?
- 25:03Speaker 2: That was great. Yeah.
- 25:08Speaker 1: Is it possible that that's one of the there's a theory.
- 25:13Speaker 2: There's a couple of theories out there. There's like you, I.
- 25:15Speaker 1: Don't go full coast to coast, but there's like aliens
- 25:18Speaker 1: living amongst us and the oceans and all that.
- 25:20Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, do you know what I saw today,
- 25:23Speaker 2: What did you see?
- 25:24Speaker 6: I thought something about the fact that there might be
- 25:25Speaker 6: like tunnels underneath the pyramids in Egypt, and then I
- 25:28Speaker 6: started thinking to myself.
- 25:29Speaker 4: I was like, what if that's where the aliens have
- 25:31Speaker 4: been living this whole time.
- 25:32Speaker 2: No, no, my theory has always been there in the oceans, well,
- 25:35Speaker 2: not always, I developed this. I'm sure they are in
- 25:37Speaker 2: the oceans.
- 25:38Speaker 1: Why wouldn't they be.
- 25:39Speaker 2: Yeah, no one would ever find them.
- 25:41Speaker 6: Never.
- 25:41Speaker 1: Plus, the great thing about if you're if you were
- 25:43Speaker 1: coming here to observe, there's more water than on this
- 25:47Speaker 1: planet than there's land by a well, like seventy water.
- 25:50Speaker 1: I think it's even higher than that, but it's mostly
- 25:54Speaker 1: it's mostly water.
- 25:55Speaker 2: So you come here, you're in the ocean.
- 25:58Speaker 1: And plus, if anyone on a bus, there's all kinds
- 26:00Speaker 1: of boats crossing the Atlantic and the Pacific and all
- 26:03Speaker 1: these oceans. But if you're out there on a boat
- 26:06Speaker 1: and you say, hey, I saw I saw these alien
- 26:09Speaker 1: craft go in the ocean, these goblins, everyone says, that's
- 26:13Speaker 1: just a drunk sailor.
- 26:14Speaker 2: You know, he's just right, That's that's it.
- 26:17Speaker 1: I was right, benevarth surface is covered with water.
- 26:28Speaker 2: I don't believes.
- 26:34Speaker 1: Again, just for the record, I'm going Ron, either AI,
- 26:38Speaker 1: that was somebody doing AI and that was not because
- 26:40Speaker 1: there's such a long delay. It would be like somebody
- 26:42Speaker 1: typing something into AI to talk or blood thirsty reptilian alien,
- 26:49Speaker 1: one of those two. And I'm not taking no for
- 26:53Speaker 1: an answer.
- 26:53Speaker 2: I'm not. Let's keep going on the phone, so we'll
- 26:56Speaker 2: say hello to.
- 26:57Speaker 1: Any meenie miney mo. Let's say hello to Zach who's
- 27:00Speaker 1: in Seattle? What's going on?
- 27:02Speaker 2: Zach? Welcome?
- 27:05Speaker 5: Always a pleasure to listen to you, guys, and be
- 27:08Speaker 5: blessed to be joining you on the airwaves. Ron needs
- 27:12Speaker 5: a thirty for thirty on ESPN for saving mad Dog's career.
- 27:17Speaker 5: Apparently that was quite the call. But now the main
- 27:22Speaker 5: reason I called in a bit ago. I'm out here
- 27:24Speaker 5: doing Uber Eat Store Dash for my one in five
- 27:26Speaker 5: year old daughter's side hustle. Always love your guys show.
- 27:31Speaker 1: And the question now hold on said question, what are people?
- 27:34Speaker 1: What are people in Seattle? What's the go to? What's
- 27:38Speaker 1: the number one? You're doing Uber each there? What food
- 27:43Speaker 1: are the people eating? The late night mounch you see,
- 27:45Speaker 1: what's the go to late night munchy for the good
- 27:47Speaker 1: people of Seattle.
- 27:49Speaker 5: Honestly, here it's either Dave's Hot Chicken Nashville Chicken. I've
- 27:54Speaker 5: probably done six hundred deliveries for them in the past year,
- 27:57Speaker 5: not no exaggeration. Or pizza if it's super late night. Now,
- 28:01Speaker 5: if it's dinner rush, it's sushi Raman, you know that
- 28:06Speaker 5: kind of stuff.
- 28:07Speaker 1: Okay, Yeah, because there's not a lot open late a
- 28:09Speaker 1: lot of places, you know, late night, you're limited on
- 28:11Speaker 1: your options. It's pizza that Dave's Hot chickens everywhere.
- 28:15Speaker 2: Yeah, I got you, all right, very good.
- 28:18Speaker 5: Yeah. So the reason I called it originally though, was
- 28:21Speaker 5: you were talking about, you know, the NBA playoffs, you know, overall,
- 28:25Speaker 5: and I just I'm so thankful that I grew up
- 28:27Speaker 5: in the era of you know, Jordan and being able
- 28:31Speaker 5: to understand what he was doing and how amazing it was.
- 28:35Speaker 5: Got to see him live one time in Chicago, which
- 28:37Speaker 5: was amazing. But it's like eighty seven points and a half.
- 28:41Speaker 5: I remember Nicks Pacers games that ended at like seventy
- 28:45Speaker 5: two points you know per team. You know, it's like, yeah, it's.
- 28:49Speaker 1: Just well, to be fair, though, do Zach to be fair?
- 28:52Speaker 1: People complained about that too, right, they're like, this is terrible.
- 28:55Speaker 2: I remember in the night.
- 28:57Speaker 1: Yeah, people complained about Mike Vitello and pat Riley ruining
- 29:00Speaker 1: the NBA. I know, I remember doing monologues God forbid
- 29:05Speaker 1: and and people can play all it's just terrible. They're
- 29:07Speaker 1: just too physical and they're not letting them play basketball.
- 29:12Speaker 1: They're grabbing in the whole thing. So they complained about it.
- 29:14Speaker 2: People love to complain.
- 29:17Speaker 5: One or negative nancies, negative mates as they're called, right,
- 29:20Speaker 5: and the some Warriors, but you know, they're just totally
- 29:23Speaker 5: different eras in basketball, football, et cetera, baseball. But what
- 29:27Speaker 5: I did want to share was this part. This is
- 29:30Speaker 5: the NBA playoffs where I don't who's the clear kind
- 29:35Speaker 5: of favorite, like after the upsets that have happened in
- 29:38Speaker 5: Boston and Cleveland, you know, being the favorite and you know,
- 29:43Speaker 5: Minnesota and Curry going down with the Warriors, like who
- 29:46Speaker 5: is Like anybody can win and that's pretty exciting to
- 29:49Speaker 5: think about, Like literally any of these remaining teams could
- 29:52Speaker 5: win realistically.
- 29:55Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know. I mean you say that, I
- 30:00Speaker 2: still I'm not I'm not there.
- 30:02Speaker 1: I mean, we'll see how this right, you know, in
- 30:04Speaker 1: the moment, Yeah, things at this moment would do the show.
- 30:06Speaker 1: Obviously today that's the mantra. So sure you could make
- 30:09Speaker 1: that argument. I still don't.
- 30:11Speaker 5: I mean, it often makes one extra three pointer of
- 30:14Speaker 5: the past two games they went on, you know, but
- 30:16Speaker 5: they're not making the changes, like you said, they're not
- 30:19Speaker 5: doing the adjustments. They're living by the three dying by it.
- 30:22Speaker 5: But it's like, obviously there's a hierarchy of the remaining
- 30:25Speaker 5: teams that are most likely to win, YadA YadA. But
- 30:27Speaker 5: it's like, you know, Halliburton is over here being called,
- 30:32Speaker 5: you know, the most overrated by his peers, and now
- 30:35Speaker 5: he's out here being mister clutch, you know. And I
- 30:37Speaker 5: really appreciate an admire that his dad acted a fool
- 30:41Speaker 5: and he's the of the the older generation his dad
- 30:44Speaker 5: and Halliburton came in with you know, respect and and
- 30:49Speaker 5: you know, are like, his dad shouldn't have done that,
- 30:52Speaker 5: and et cetera.
- 30:53Speaker 1: I thought, well, by the way, how how how pissed
- 30:56Speaker 1: must Tyree Haliburton's dad be that he's not allowed to
- 30:58Speaker 1: go to the games. And his kids said two of
- 31:00Speaker 1: the great performances of his career since he since he
- 31:03Speaker 1: got banned from the arena.
- 31:05Speaker 2: It's like it's he earned.
- 31:06Speaker 5: It after what he did to seeing the sun do that,
- 31:09Speaker 5: to be honest and all that, but it's like he
- 31:11Speaker 5: didn't get to see the sun do his next game
- 31:13Speaker 5: winner and again his son is Peers have called him
- 31:18Speaker 5: the most overrated player, and now here he is with
- 31:21Speaker 5: two clutch, huge shots, and I think it's really cool
- 31:24Speaker 5: how he handled the whole scenario.
- 31:28Speaker 2: I gotta leave it there, Zach.
- 31:29Speaker 1: I gotta get some other people on, but thank you
- 31:31Speaker 1: to be safe out there driving around Seattle.
- 31:32Speaker 2: There delivering the hot chicken to the to the people
- 31:36Speaker 2: they need. They need their chicken. They need their hot chicken.
- 31:39Speaker 2: Very important.
- 31:40Speaker 1: Let's go to uh, who do we have? Let's go

- 33:07Speaker 2: Webb in Michigan. That is is outstanding.
- 33:10Speaker 6: That is correct. That is what happened. But as I
- 33:12Speaker 6: always do, I always repeat their name back to them.
- 33:14Speaker 6: As you can tell, I'm having a hard time with
- 33:17Speaker 6: a few of these callers.

- 34:52Speaker 1: that you want.
