- 1:43Speaker 3: Dot com The Way Tire Buying Show. I'd be now.
- 1:47Speaker 1: I could sit here and wax poetic about the Dodgers
- 1:51Speaker 1: beating the Podres and rant and rave about that that's
- 1:55Speaker 1: a random June game in baseball.
- 2:00Speaker 3: I think we're gonna focus on that instead.
- 2:02Speaker 1: The rare and appropriate lead yet again from the puck.
- 2:08Speaker 1: We are talking puck on the raid. That's right, rare
- 2:12Speaker 1: and appropriate. Don't get used to this. So we start
- 2:15Speaker 1: out in South Florida, where as the NBA takes another break.
- 2:19Speaker 1: The basketball players cannot be expected to play all that often.
- 2:24Speaker 3: You know how rigorous it is to play in the NBA.
- 2:26Speaker 1: My gone anyway, So hockey filling the void. Filling the
- 2:32Speaker 1: void on the schedule are on a Monday night, and
- 2:34Speaker 1: we watched Game three between the Oilers and Panthers tied
- 2:38Speaker 1: up one to one. Couple of overtime thrill us in Alberta,
- 2:44Speaker 1: and now the scenes shifting to the Sunshine State. Now,
- 2:46Speaker 1: I don't know if you're watching this or not. Probably
- 2:49Speaker 1: not based on the ratings, very few people have been
- 2:52Speaker 1: watching this matchup so it is our act of kindness,
- 2:56Speaker 1: a public service for you, a good mitzvah of the
- 3:00Speaker 1: day that we were watching so you would not have to.
- 3:04Speaker 1: And what do we watch, Well, we watched Brad Marshant
- 3:07Speaker 1: do it again. He did it again, he's scored again
- 3:10Speaker 1: for the team from Florida. And Sam Bennett, how do
- 3:15Speaker 1: you do? He got it done again, each scoring goals.
- 3:18Speaker 1: Florida striking oil as they take care and beat off
- 3:24Speaker 1: the hapless Edmonton hockey team six to one on Monday night.
- 3:28Speaker 1: So now it is a two games to one series
- 3:31Speaker 1: lead for the team from Florida and that series, Now
- 3:37Speaker 1: will it go all the way? Will Edmonton bounce back?
- 3:40Speaker 1: Suddenly a pivotal pivotal well not suddenly. Usually it's two
- 3:43Speaker 1: to one going to game four. Game four massive for
- 3:46Speaker 1: the team trailing three games to one if they lose
- 3:49Speaker 1: that game. And so the story er you had the
- 3:53Speaker 1: Florida domination situation as they led this game from soup
- 3:57Speaker 1: to nuts. Brad Marshanti x bruin the oldest player to
- 4:01Speaker 1: score in each of the first three games of a
- 4:03Speaker 1: Stanley Cup final with that goal there and Sam Bennett,
- 4:07Speaker 1: the NHL playoff leading fourteenth goal, which I'm told is good.
- 4:10Speaker 1: I didn't play hockey, but I'm told that's pretty good.
- 4:12Speaker 1: When you lead the entire league in playoff goals, you've
- 4:15Speaker 1: done something right. So good for him. And the better story, though,
- 4:19Speaker 1: is in the losing locker room, so that is where
- 4:21Speaker 1: we were focused. We're going to focus on that. As
- 4:23Speaker 1: you know, I like the good story. The good story
- 4:26Speaker 1: here is the man that has been one of the
- 4:28Speaker 1: faces of hockey for the last decade not getting that
- 4:34Speaker 1: check next to his name on the Pro Hockey websites.
- 4:38Speaker 1: The stat websites were Connor McDavid not winning a Stanley
- 4:43Speaker 1: Cup lost last year. Here's another opportunity, the same rematch
- 4:47Speaker 1: situation here. So the oiler star Connor McDavid, who did
- 4:51Speaker 1: Bupkus in this game. But he did speak to the
- 4:55Speaker 1: assembled media after the game, and Connor McDavid said that
- 4:58Speaker 1: he believes the best version of the oilers will arrive eventually.
- 5:03Speaker 3: Okay, well that's good. They're gonna arvive eventually, he said.
- 5:06Speaker 4: Quote.
- 5:07Speaker 1: I don't think our best has shown up all series along,
- 5:10Speaker 1: but it's coming, he stated, So let us discuss. That's
- 5:14Speaker 1: the quote that we're gonna work with, and we're gonna
- 5:17Speaker 1: chop that up and parts the words of Connor McDavid
- 5:20Speaker 1: and get into some hot hockey talk, hot hockey talk.
- 5:25Speaker 1: So the question Connor mcdavie saying, the Oilers have not
- 5:29Speaker 1: played their best against the Panthers so.
- 5:32Speaker 3: Far, but it's coming. Do you believe him? Do you
- 5:38Speaker 3: believe him?
- 5:39Speaker 1: So on this one, I've got Amazon Prime, Jimmy Hendrix
- 5:42Speaker 1: and Panhandle and we will combine all of these things
- 5:47Speaker 1: together and we are going to put the biscuit in
- 5:49Speaker 1: the basket, something the Oilers only did one time in
- 5:53Speaker 1: this game, as they lose by five goals, going down
- 5:56Speaker 1: six to one. So the first thought is the obvious one.
- 5:59Speaker 1: It's an odd juxtaposition from Connor McDavid to say, well,
- 6:03Speaker 1: it's coming, it's gonna be there, We're gonna be okay, right,
- 6:07Speaker 1: we believe, we believe. Of course you've got to say
- 6:10Speaker 1: that to some degree. We get that you have to
- 6:12Speaker 1: say that. But as Yogi Bear, the late Great Yogi
- 6:15Speaker 1: Bear famously said, it's getting very late early out here.
- 6:20Speaker 1: It's getting very late early out here. You are, by
- 6:23Speaker 1: my count, forty two percent into the Stanley Cup Final.
- 6:26Speaker 1: That's assuming he goes seven games that's assuming he goes
- 6:29Speaker 1: seven games, so forty two percent into the Stanley Cup Final.
- 6:34Speaker 3: What exactly are you waiting for? Like, what are you
- 6:37Speaker 3: waiting for?
- 6:38Speaker 1: Did you get lost somewhere? It's coming, Dodd, trust us,
- 6:41Speaker 1: it's coming. It's going to happen right like a thunderstorm
- 6:45Speaker 1: out in the distance. You see the clouds out, it's coming.
- 6:47Speaker 1: That storm's coming. Now maybe it'll change directions, but it's coming.
- 6:50Speaker 1: This Jor's coming this way. So it's a promissory note
- 6:55Speaker 1: from Connor McDavid that hey, hey, it's gonna work out.
- 6:59Speaker 1: Can possible be wrong? Now, he didn't throw the word
- 7:01Speaker 1: in there butt, And as you know, everything before the
- 7:04Speaker 1: word but is bull crap. Everything before the word butt
- 7:07Speaker 1: is bull crap. So if you look at the quote here,
- 7:09Speaker 1: I don't think our best has shown up all series long,
- 7:13Speaker 1: but it's coming.
- 7:14Speaker 4: See.
- 7:14Speaker 1: I would argue that Edmonton should have won the first
- 7:18Speaker 1: two games of the series, should be up two to one,
- 7:22Speaker 1: and then they they obviously they lost the second game
- 7:25Speaker 1: in double overtime, and then this this game, they.
- 7:28Speaker 3: Just did not show up.
- 7:31Speaker 1: So I would argue that things are going the wrong
- 7:33Speaker 1: direction here, not the right direction for the team.
- 7:36Speaker 3: From Canada.
- 7:37Speaker 1: If Connor McDavid is promising it like he says he is,
- 7:42Speaker 1: is this like an Amazon Prime thing, like it's going
- 7:44Speaker 1: to be here in a couple of days, just wait
- 7:45Speaker 1: for it. You know, going to get it too in
- 7:47Speaker 1: less than two business days. You'll get your your better
- 7:50Speaker 1: performance here now. Unfortunately, as betten a way around this,
- 7:54Speaker 1: all of professional sports is a results based situation. You
- 7:58Speaker 1: are judged by actual production, like how do you actually
- 8:02Speaker 1: do it? McDavid had not one, but two more shots
- 8:07Speaker 1: on goal than you had two.
- 8:09Speaker 3: He had no goals, no assists.
- 8:11Speaker 1: And his accomplice here Leon Drsidel for the Oilers, the
- 8:16Speaker 1: other big star.
- 8:17Speaker 3: He's a top ten player.
- 8:18Speaker 1: Also he had a cardio game as well for the
- 8:21Speaker 1: Oilers there in terms of points, both skating circles in
- 8:26Speaker 1: circles there as the goaltending the defense for Edmonton. As
- 8:30Speaker 1: opponent there Florida Serye Babrovsky eating their lunch in this game,
- 8:35Speaker 1: the two big stars, and now you have Connor McDavid
- 8:39Speaker 1: out there throwing out wishful thinking as a game plan,
- 8:44Speaker 1: which generally speaking is not a great idea.
- 8:47Speaker 3: It's not a great idea. It's the Cup Final.
- 8:50Speaker 1: And I certainly enjoy a good theoretical argument as much
- 8:55Speaker 1: as the next person, Like, what are you doing here?
- 8:59Speaker 3: We don't care what's coming. That doesn't do anything for
- 9:02Speaker 3: us here.
- 9:04Speaker 1: What's here in the present is the Panthers are playing
- 9:08Speaker 1: winning hockey. And the Panthers are going the right direction
- 9:12Speaker 1: and the Oilers are going the opposite direction. Now, speaking
- 9:15Speaker 1: of that, page two, and you know we love to
- 9:19Speaker 1: break down the losing locker room. So it's two to one,
- 9:24Speaker 1: it's three games, it's the first two. Could not get
- 9:27Speaker 1: any closer, going to overtime, this game of blowout in
- 9:30Speaker 1: Game three of the Stanley Cup Finals. So should Edmonton
- 9:33Speaker 1: be worried after this Game three no show situation? So
- 9:39Speaker 1: the Mallor paniczero meter has been activated. The Mallor Panicometer.
- 9:44Speaker 1: We dusted it off, and here it is. Mallord Panicometer
- 9:49Speaker 1: one to ten, with ten being a ballistic missile coming inbound,
- 9:55Speaker 1: Seek immediate shelter.
- 9:57Speaker 3: That's a ten for the the Oilers.
- 10:01Speaker 1: I'm at at eight point five. I'm at an eight
- 10:03Speaker 1: point five. And here's why. The arrow is pointing down, down, down, down, down, down,
- 10:09Speaker 1: down down down. It's like a Jimmy Hendricks tune. Mister
- 10:13Speaker 1: bad luck, that's what it is. You're mister bad luck.
- 10:17Speaker 1: You had the glass slipper break. The real Stewart Skinner
- 10:20Speaker 1: stood up in that there, the guy that was a
- 10:24Speaker 1: bag of suck, and well he had been playing well
- 10:27Speaker 1: and then he goes out there.
- 10:28Speaker 4: He was so bad?
- 10:29Speaker 3: How bad was he? He was so bad?
- 10:31Speaker 4: He got pulled. That's not particularly good.
- 10:34Speaker 1: He got binged after a long not one, not two,
- 10:37Speaker 1: not three, not four, not five, well actually five five
- 10:40Speaker 1: goals on twenty three shots. We mentioned Leon Drysidel Connor
- 10:44Speaker 1: McDavid both having cardio games. They had no points, no
- 10:48Speaker 1: points in this game, and and so the game turned
- 10:52Speaker 1: into a gong show, which I kind of like by
- 10:55Speaker 1: and it's by everything's by modern reference. Like I, as
- 10:59Speaker 1: you may know, my younger days, I covered hockey, you know,
- 11:02Speaker 1: as a radio stringer. So I went to a lot
- 11:04Speaker 1: of hockey games, believe it or not, many many years ago.
- 11:07Speaker 1: And I was in the era where they'd still drop
- 11:12Speaker 1: the puck and then you'd have your goon Stu Grimson
- 11:15Speaker 1: or somebody like that, ty Dolemy get into a dust
- 11:18Speaker 1: up and they'd start fighting right after they dropped the puck,
- 11:21Speaker 1: like that was when I was around hockey, so I
- 11:23Speaker 1: know they don't really do that anymore. It's taboo. You
- 11:26Speaker 1: must love each other, no fighting. You may have got
- 11:28Speaker 1: a concussion, but it wasn't to that degree. But it
- 11:31Speaker 1: was a gong show type situation because Edmonton had twenty
- 11:35Speaker 1: one penalties for in eighty five minutes of time. With
- 11:40Speaker 1: the penalties and all that stuff, and the Panthers made
- 11:42Speaker 1: them pay on all of them. They scored three goals
- 11:46Speaker 1: on powerplay, so three of the six goals were scored
- 11:49Speaker 1: on the power play, which by my math is fifty percent.
- 11:51Speaker 1: That's what that is, fifty percent. And it was the
- 11:55Speaker 1: we can't beat them, so let's try to beat them
- 11:58Speaker 1: up mantra. It's like, well, we're not gonna win the game,
- 12:01Speaker 1: but let's try it up. Let's shot up, give him
- 12:03Speaker 1: some bruises. We'll see if we can bruise them up
- 12:05Speaker 1: a little bit. The gloves off philosophy. Oh Gary Bettman
- 12:09Speaker 1: must have been so upset. Oh my god, haymaker fest goon.
- 12:13Speaker 3: Up, goon up, goot it up, goot it up, gooon
- 12:15Speaker 3: it up, goot it up. All right now, last word.
- 12:19Speaker 3: So I thought this was amusing. I wanted to. I
- 12:22Speaker 3: jotted this down, I found the audio, so we're gonna
- 12:24Speaker 3: play the audio.
- 12:24Speaker 1: So normally, these mid game interviews in sports are a
- 12:28Speaker 1: complete waste of time.
- 12:31Speaker 4: Ninety nine point nine.
- 12:34Speaker 1: Percent of the time they suck. It's the person that
- 12:38Speaker 1: does it doesn't want to do it. The questions are dumb,
- 12:41Speaker 1: the answers are just cliches. It's a waste of time.
- 12:44Speaker 1: Every once in a while, like in baseball over the weekend,
- 12:47Speaker 1: you had Jazz Chisholm make an error because he was
- 12:50Speaker 1: miked up. At least that's the theory that he made
- 12:53Speaker 1: the mistake because he was miked up and he was
- 12:55Speaker 1: trying to play grab ass with some idiots on television.
- 12:58Speaker 1: And then in Game three of this Stanley Cup Final,
- 13:01Speaker 1: I thought this was one of the great moments I've
- 13:03Speaker 1: seen in game interviews. Let's take it out. If you
- 13:05Speaker 1: didn't want watching the game, we've got the audio. We're
- 13:07Speaker 1: gonna play. I really like this guy, Paul Maurice, the
- 13:10Speaker 1: coach of the Florida Panthers. He was very good last
- 13:13Speaker 1: year in audio. And that's really all I care about.
- 13:15Speaker 1: That's all I I mean. I'm just in it for
- 13:16Speaker 1: the audio. I'm just in it for the clips.
- 13:19Speaker 3: And so Paul Maurice was in games slobbery all over
- 13:25Speaker 3: Sam Bennett of his team there and his performance. He
- 13:29Speaker 3: made a couple of big plays early in that game.
- 13:32Speaker 3: This was a.
- 13:33Speaker 1: Second period interview, So let me set this up the
- 13:35Speaker 1: right way. So it's a second period, mid game, second
- 13:39Speaker 1: period interview. Paul Maurice, the Florida coach there, slobber, slabber,
- 13:43Speaker 1: slobbery all over Sam Bennett's performance. And then the report
- 13:48Speaker 1: I don't know who this woman is for Turner. She
- 13:50Speaker 1: brought up the fact that Sam Bennett's gonna be a
- 13:52Speaker 1: free agent, and she made some comment about him getting
- 13:56Speaker 1: a lot of money, and I want you to listen
- 13:57Speaker 1: to how Paul Maurice handled that and the quick change
- 14:01Speaker 1: in response.
- 14:02Speaker 3: Let's go to the audio tape, Tiglas.
- 14:04Speaker 5: I'm Bennett with two big hits in the D zone
- 14:06Speaker 5: and a highlight reel goal in the amzon is not
- 14:08Speaker 5: a coach's dream shift or what well.
- 14:10Speaker 1: He sold it all over the ice, but he doesn't
- 14:12Speaker 1: chieve the game for the two goals that he's under fox.
- 14:14Speaker 3: He does all the hard right things and.
- 14:16Speaker 4: Not so Sue he is.
- 14:17Speaker 5: I don't think his agent's gonna have to work that
- 14:18Speaker 5: hard this summer.
- 14:19Speaker 4: But I'll move on a horrible attitude.
- 14:21Speaker 3: I think it's got your bonic plague.
- 14:23Speaker 4: I see what you're doing, the nang fever. He's got
- 14:26Speaker 4: a whole bunch of things.
- 14:27Speaker 3: We're not sure you get me cured.
- 14:28Speaker 5: Play the game, Paul, play the game.
- 14:30Speaker 4: Thank you for this.
- 14:30Speaker 3: It's all right.
- 14:32Speaker 1: So if you didn't hear that he was waxing loquations
- 14:37Speaker 1: about how great Sam Bennett was and then when the
- 14:39Speaker 1: fact that he's going to be a free agent and
- 14:41Speaker 1: all that stuff he mentioned, I believe the bubonic plague
- 14:44Speaker 1: and the dnang fever, which you know is not normally
- 14:49Speaker 1: brought up, not normally brought up the denaying finger fever
- 14:54Speaker 1: along with the bubonic plague. I thought that was great
- 14:56Speaker 1: and it was just just wonderful. So let us let's
- 15:01Speaker 1: discuss this. So what is the word? What is the
- 15:04Speaker 1: word for Florida coach Palmerice midgame interview and his pivot
- 15:10Speaker 1: while talking about Sam Bennett and his free agency.
- 15:14Speaker 4: So this is the.
- 15:17Speaker 3: Panhandle. My word, though, is dead pan? I say panhanded.
- 15:21Speaker 1: My word is actually deadpan because it was comedy gold.
- 15:25Speaker 1: It was wonderful He did not miss a beat. He
- 15:29Speaker 1: had the same tone. His tone did not change, deadpan delivery.
- 15:35Speaker 1: It was brilliant and that's the key. It's comedy, comedy gold.
- 15:39Speaker 1: You say the absurd thing and you are in a
- 15:42Speaker 1: completely serious tone.
- 15:44Speaker 4: Take play it again. I want to play it again
- 15:46Speaker 4: on here.
- 15:46Speaker 5: This is I'm Bennett with two big hits in the
- 15:49Speaker 5: d zone and a highlight reel goal in the Arizona
- 15:51Speaker 5: is not a coach's dream shift.
- 15:53Speaker 3: Or what well.
- 15:54Speaker 1: He sold it all over the ice, but he doesn't
- 15:56Speaker 1: chieve the game for the two goals that he's under.
- 15:58Speaker 3: Fox does all the hard right things.
- 15:59Speaker 5: That I don't think it's agent's gonna have to work
- 16:02Speaker 5: that hard this summer.
- 16:03Speaker 4: But I'll move on a horrible attitude.
- 16:05Speaker 3: I think it's got javonic players.
- 16:12Speaker 5: Play the game, Paul, play the game.
- 16:13Speaker 3: Thank you for this. There you go. That's outstanding. That
- 16:17Speaker 3: to live we need more of that. And so as
- 16:20Speaker 3: I was making my long drive.
- 16:22Speaker 1: In from the north Woods into the main studio here,
- 16:26Speaker 1: I was thinking, these hockey coaches are under the radar. Hilarious.
- 16:33Speaker 1: And I don't make lists. As you know, I don't
- 16:35Speaker 1: do list. If you do list, you're irrelevant. But on
- 16:37Speaker 1: Big Ben's big board, which is not a list. If
- 16:40Speaker 1: Terry and England's listening not a list. I gotta tell you,
- 16:44Speaker 1: hockey coaches funniest coaches we have, are they not? He
- 16:49Speaker 1: and I can't name most of them, but they're really funny,
- 16:54Speaker 1: like baseball managers are just.
- 16:56Speaker 3: They's nothing, there's nothing fun about them. They always have
- 16:59Speaker 3: a stick up.
- 17:00Speaker 4: It took us right.
- 17:01Speaker 1: Most football coaches are not that fun. I would say, though.
- 17:04Speaker 1: Football coaches are behind hockey a distance second. And a
- 17:11Speaker 1: lot of the basketball coaches take themselves too seriously and
- 17:14Speaker 1: they're not that. They're not that amusing. I side throw that.
- 17:19Speaker 1: Throw that out there, good sense of humor. My favorite
- 17:23Speaker 1: he's not coaching right now, but John Tortorella. We sucked
- 17:25Speaker 1: at a time we could not suck, which is to me,
- 17:28Speaker 1: the gold standard of postgame quote.
- 17:31Speaker 3: That's all you need.
- 17:31Speaker 1: We sucked at a time you cannot suck, which sums
- 17:34Speaker 1: everything up, and that's all that's all you need.

- 18:25Speaker 1: the Sledgehammer Squad from the Fox Sports Radio Studios, as
- 18:28Speaker 1: approved by Jonathan and Delaware, and this portion of the
- 18:32Speaker 1: Ben Maler Show made possible in part by our friends
- 18:36Speaker 1: at tire Rack. For over forty years. Forty years, tire
- 18:41Speaker 1: Rack has been helping customers find the right tires for how,
- 18:43Speaker 1: what and where they drive, chip fast and free, backed
- 18:47Speaker 1: by free road hazard protection with convenient installation options like
- 18:51Speaker 1: mobile tire installation tire rack dot Com the way tire
- 18:55Speaker 1: buying should be. So our lead this hour is from Indianapolis,
- 19:00Speaker 1: The Changing of the Guard. Now we're not gonna go
- 19:03Speaker 1: to the NBA Finals because they're on hiatus. Can't work
- 19:07Speaker 1: too hard in a basketball life. Gotta have a lot
- 19:10Speaker 1: of time off. Otherwise the players bitch and we don't
- 19:12Speaker 1: want them complaining. So obviously traveling by stage coach between
- 19:17Speaker 1: Oklahoma and Indiana.
- 19:19Speaker 3: But we'll stay with the theme.
- 19:22Speaker 1: The Indianapolis football team, the pro football team in town,
- 19:25Speaker 1: making some news on a random day in relatively early June.
- 19:33Speaker 1: Relatively early June, you might have seen this, maybe not.
- 19:37Speaker 1: The Colts have gone from having one owner to having
- 19:41Speaker 1: not one, not two, but three three owners now. Jim
- 19:47Speaker 1: Mercede died, dropped dead there in late May. He was
- 19:51Speaker 1: a young young man. For most people say sixty five,
- 19:55Speaker 1: you should live longer than that. But he was sixty
- 19:57Speaker 1: five and had a hard life and he checked out.
- 20:01Speaker 1: So ERSA Jim Irsay done and the NFL franchise announcing
- 20:07Speaker 1: that the chain of command the official transition phase as
- 20:12Speaker 1: they go from the Gilded Age to a different gilded age.
- 20:16Speaker 1: Jim Irsay's three daughters, which sounds like a reality show,
- 20:21Speaker 1: are going to take over.
- 20:22Speaker 2: Now.
- 20:22Speaker 1: We talked about this in a previous episode of the show,
- 20:24Speaker 1: but it is now reality. The Triumvirent is going to
- 20:29Speaker 1: be carterly Ersay, Gordon Casey Foyt, and Kaylin Jackson. They
- 20:35Speaker 1: will all have leadership roles with the Indianapolis Colts and
- 20:39Speaker 1: that continues the Ursay bloodline. Fifty plus years of ownership,
- 20:46Speaker 1: and boy, nobody loves Ersay more than the people of
- 20:48Speaker 1: Baltimore and what he did for their fine set of
- 20:50Speaker 1: the old man, you know, Jim Irsay's dad.
- 20:53Speaker 3: So that's where we are now.
- 20:55Speaker 1: We're told Carterly Ersay Gordon, who's forty four, will assume
- 21:01Speaker 1: the title as the CEO and principal owner.
- 21:06Speaker 3: However, however, you know.
- 21:08Speaker 1: If you've got siblings, you know that there will be
- 21:11Speaker 1: a sibling rivalry in play. The other sisters will be
- 21:14Speaker 1: involved and they will have a say in the eyes
- 21:17Speaker 1: of the NFL. The oldest one, Carli Ersa Gordon, will
- 21:21Speaker 1: be the one that is the owner. I'll see how
- 21:24Speaker 1: this plays out. So let us discuss the question for
- 21:27Speaker 1: the Esteem panel. What is your verdict on this transition
- 21:31Speaker 1: of Colts ownership from Jim Mersay.
- 21:34Speaker 3: Who died to the three daughters.
- 21:37Speaker 1: So I've got olive garden, Pokemon cards, and silverware, and
- 21:43Speaker 1: we will combine all of these things together and we
- 21:46Speaker 1: are going to make the surf and turf at Saint
- 21:50Speaker 1: Elmo's Steakhouse there in Indianapolis, where we'll always they always
- 21:53Speaker 1: get on TV because the broadcasters they love going there
- 21:56Speaker 1: and getting the surf and turf at the steakhouse there
- 21:59Speaker 1: in indian Anapolis. But my thought on this, my first thought,
- 22:03Speaker 1: which as we know is number one, The circus is
- 22:09Speaker 1: officially in town.
- 22:11Speaker 3: Come one, come all.
- 22:12Speaker 1: Fun for all ages under the big top we go
- 22:15Speaker 1: in in the Annapolis.
- 22:17Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 22:18Speaker 1: Now, not the kind of circus with the cotton candy
- 22:21Speaker 1: and the clown on the little bicycle and the parade
- 22:25Speaker 1: of elephants they used to have back and they not that. No, No,
- 22:29Speaker 1: this particular circus is the Jim Ersay Legacy clown Show
- 22:35Speaker 1: which will be taking over there in Indianapolis, starring the
- 22:38Speaker 1: next generation. We mentioned the Gilded Age, but the next
- 22:40Speaker 1: generation of the football hierarchy there the Ersay daughters take over.
- 22:48Speaker 1: And let's break this down. So the line of secession
- 22:55Speaker 1: appears to be a line of regression.
- 22:58Speaker 3: Not that Jim Irsay was the greatest owner in the world.
- 23:01Speaker 3: He did care.
- 23:03Speaker 1: He loved being Jim Irsay and being the guy that
- 23:07Speaker 1: didn't really do anything to own the team, just being
- 23:09Speaker 1: born into it.
- 23:10Speaker 3: Now the daughters takeover, so it's the third generation.
- 23:14Speaker 1: And as we have preached about from our knightly sermons
- 23:19Speaker 1: here on the bully pulpit. We have mentioned many times
- 23:23Speaker 1: that when you have the family passing on the franchise
- 23:29Speaker 1: to the next generation, they give the keys to the
- 23:32Speaker 1: franchise to the next line, the trust fund group that
- 23:37Speaker 1: takes over. It just doesn't go all that well, right,
- 23:40Speaker 1: It's like, all right, we're gonna hand the franchise over,
- 23:43Speaker 1: the keys to the franchise there to the trust fund
- 23:46Speaker 1: beach house there in the Hamptons or South Beach or wherever,
- 23:50Speaker 1: and just knock yourself out. Now we're heading into the
- 23:52Speaker 1: third generation, if my math is correct, the third generation
- 23:56Speaker 1: of URSA ownership.
- 23:57Speaker 3: It's a family business.
- 23:59Speaker 1: And unlike your mom and pop Pizzeriha, which gets handed
- 24:03Speaker 1: down to the next generation, it's an NFL franchise worth
- 24:07Speaker 1: four point eight billion. Four point eight billion. Good luck, seriously,
- 24:12Speaker 1: good luck to the cole fans. You're supposed to sit
- 24:16Speaker 1: there and just pretend that this is some kind of
- 24:18Speaker 1: beautiful sentimental moment and just tugs at the heartstrings and
- 24:23Speaker 1: so like the next chapter and some kind of rich
- 24:27Speaker 1: person's fairy tale, and how amazing. Of course, I would.
- 24:31Speaker 3: Argue, give me a bleep and break on that right,
- 24:33Speaker 3: I mean, what are we doing here?
- 24:35Speaker 1: You're watching your franchise get passed around like it's a
- 24:38Speaker 1: breadstick there at olive Garden. There's only one left in
- 24:41Speaker 1: the basket and everyone's trying to grab it and all
- 24:43Speaker 1: that stuff. And so I know in sports there's the
- 24:47Speaker 1: thought that if you have in baseball, if you have
- 24:49Speaker 1: two left fielders, you don't have one. That was the flaught.
- 24:52Speaker 1: Now the nerds think you need to have five left fielders,
- 24:55Speaker 1: but for a long time it was if you have
- 24:56Speaker 1: two left fielders, you don't have one. If you've got
- 24:59Speaker 1: two quarterbacks, you don't have one. So if you have
- 25:02Speaker 1: three owners, you don't really have one. Isn't that the
- 25:05Speaker 1: way it works? Like the mindset and all.
- 25:06Speaker 3: That that too many chefs spoil the broth. I've heard
- 25:09Speaker 3: that along the.
- 25:10Speaker 4: Way we'll find out.
- 25:11Speaker 3: We'll find out in the coming days and whatnot there.
- 25:14Speaker 1: And generally speaking, old family money, three headed ownership nightmare,
- 25:21Speaker 1: old family money, treating the team like an ATM machine,
- 25:25Speaker 1: And there's a lot of money, petty cash. There's a
- 25:27Speaker 1: lot of cash there. If your family happens to own
- 25:30Speaker 1: an NFL team, it just doesn't go well. My examples
- 25:35Speaker 1: my evidence Genie Buss with the Lakers, horrible owner, most
- 25:37Speaker 1: embarrassing owner in basketball right now? How about Mark Davis
- 25:41Speaker 1: with the Raiders, not exactly lighting the world on fire there?
- 25:44Speaker 1: And there's a bunch of other examples now page two.
- 25:47Speaker 1: So we stay with the team in Indianapolis, but mainly
- 25:49Speaker 1: we go to the injury tent because there was a
- 25:53Speaker 1: new development that came out and we saw this or not.
- 25:57Speaker 1: Despite some early positive reports that everything was going to
- 25:59Speaker 1: be okay, we were skeptical. And it turns out that
- 26:03Speaker 1: a little ounce of skepticism pays off in the end.
- 26:07Speaker 1: We've learned of a setback, a setback for the great
- 26:12Speaker 1: bust of Indianapolis, and not a Hall of Fame bust,
- 26:15Speaker 1: just a bust in the quarterback there.
- 26:20Speaker 3: Is it true? Is it true that Colts quarterback.
- 26:23Speaker 1: Anthony Richardson, who should have been drafted in the sixth
- 26:26Speaker 1: or seventh round but was picked in the first round
- 26:30Speaker 1: because Jimmers they had a bug up his took us
- 26:32Speaker 1: and wanted to take him. That Anthony Richardson has a
- 26:34Speaker 1: bum shoulder, and despite those initial reports, despite those initial
- 26:40Speaker 1: reports of optimism, that Anthony Richardson will seek a second
- 26:44Speaker 1: opinion from Surgeon to the Stars Neil elatrosh later this
- 26:49Speaker 1: week in Los Angeles. How does that sound to you?
- 26:55Speaker 1: So I will I will tackle this before you tackle this.
- 26:59Speaker 1: So this is a brochure. It is a brochure for
- 27:03Speaker 1: a nice vacation to the land of trouble, is what
- 27:07Speaker 1: it is.
- 27:08Speaker 3: Right.
- 27:08Speaker 1: It sounds to me like someone that does not trust
- 27:12Speaker 1: the medical staff there in Indianapolis. If you trusted the
- 27:15Speaker 1: Colts doctors, you would not be going out and getting
- 27:18Speaker 1: a second opinion on your shoulder.
- 27:21Speaker 3: That's what it sounds like.
- 27:23Speaker 1: He's taking outside counsel Anthony Richardson, which would be a
- 27:28Speaker 1: dead giveaway that he thinks there's something more going on
- 27:31Speaker 1: and he doesn't believe the team doctor there with the
- 27:34Speaker 1: Colts and Anthony Richardson is collecting second opinions and maybe
- 27:37Speaker 1: they'll go third and the fourth opinion like Pokemon cards.
- 27:40Speaker 1: He's collecting second and third opinions and all this stuff.
- 27:43Speaker 1: And doctor Elatrash, who replaced doctor Job, who was the
- 27:47Speaker 1: legendary doctor that came up with the Frankenstein like Tommy
- 27:50Speaker 1: John surgery. It's not called the Frank Job surgery. It's
- 27:53Speaker 1: called the Tommy John surgery. Anyway, doctor Elatrash replaced.
- 27:56Speaker 3: Him and as.
- 27:58Speaker 1: The surgeon to the Sports Stars and all that stuff.
- 28:01Speaker 1: And he's the guy that operated on Richardson back in
- 28:03Speaker 1: twenty twenty three on his shoulder. And so that adds
- 28:07Speaker 1: another layer of curiosity here. And I'll tell you why, Okay,
- 28:13Speaker 1: because it was previously again tossed out by the Colts
- 28:18Speaker 1: and people around the Colts that there was no structural
- 28:21Speaker 1: damage to Anthony Richardson's shoulder, that they had a scan
- 28:25Speaker 1: that was performed and it was okay. So if there's
- 28:29Speaker 1: lingering inflammation, if this is an inflammation situation and soreness
- 28:34Speaker 1: and all that two years, two years after the surgical procedure,
- 28:40Speaker 1: that means ding ding ding ding ning alarm bells, alarm bells.
- 28:44Speaker 4: Going woo woooo.
- 28:46Speaker 3: That's what it sounds like.
- 28:47Speaker 1: Whoo.
- 28:48Speaker 3: Those are alarm bells.
- 28:49Speaker 1: You hear them. I can hear them. You get woo
- 28:52Speaker 1: alarm bells right there. Now, I cannot wait for the
- 28:55Speaker 1: third opinion because the smart money says, now, if Anthony
- 29:00Speaker 1: Richardson visited the doctor of the Sports Stars, doctor Latrosh
- 29:05Speaker 1: in Los Angeles, you know who else is in La
- 29:09Speaker 1: doctor Nick Riviera from the Simpsons.
- 29:11Speaker 3: So he can visit doctor Nick Riviera there and when
- 29:14Speaker 3: he's in La and they.
- 29:15Speaker 1: Write the Simpsons episodes, they make them somewhere else, but
- 29:18Speaker 1: they write them in La and so he can go
- 29:20Speaker 1: there and then boom, you're good. All right, now final point.
- 29:23Speaker 1: We head now to the frozen tundra where it's not
- 29:26Speaker 1: so frozen these days. The Green Bay Packers have said
- 29:30Speaker 1: bye bye. They have fired Jaire Alexander, a team captain.
- 29:34Speaker 1: Hey going, JayR Alexander? He has cooked?
- 29:39Speaker 3: Or is he? That's the question. So this guy pretty
- 29:42Speaker 3: popular player, one.
- 29:43Speaker 1: Of the highest ranked defensive players at his position in
- 29:46Speaker 1: the NFL in the last five or six years or so.
- 29:52Speaker 1: So the Packers have fired Jayir Alexander, defensive back. Is
- 29:57Speaker 1: he cooked or ready to cook? Is he cooked or
- 30:03Speaker 1: ready to cook? That's the question. He will find a
- 30:05Speaker 1: new team, someone will sign him, someone will give him
- 30:09Speaker 1: a big bag of money. But is he cooked, JayR Alexander?
- 30:15Speaker 1: Or is he ready to cook? So my advice is
- 30:18Speaker 1: to get the silverware out, to set the table, put
- 30:22Speaker 1: the tablecloth down, put the napkins out.
- 30:24Speaker 3: Because he's cooked.
- 30:25Speaker 1: All right, He's cooked. That's it. He's got the name,
- 30:28Speaker 1: not the game. Got the name not the game. Seen
- 30:32Speaker 1: a lot of that, And of course I'm concerned because
- 30:34Speaker 1: my Rams are one of the teams that is supposedly
- 30:37Speaker 1: interested in Jayi Alexander, because you can never have enough
- 30:40Speaker 1: a quarter of defensive backs that are teetering on the
- 30:43Speaker 1: brink of falling off the map, and he's a diminished asset. Now,
- 30:49Speaker 1: we have seen players have a career renaissance when they
- 30:52Speaker 1: change teams. The Packers, though, determined that they didn't want
- 30:57Speaker 1: to pay him the contract, which means he was not
- 31:00Speaker 1: earning the contracts in their opinion, So they said, hey,
- 31:04Speaker 1: why don't we give you a pay cut? And he
- 31:06Speaker 1: said go pound sand which I don't have a problem
- 31:08Speaker 1: with him. If you don't want to play for that salary,
- 31:10Speaker 1: go somewhere else. He feels confident he can go somewhere else.
- 31:14Speaker 3: Now.
- 31:14Speaker 1: Green Bay also had him on the auctioning block. He
- 31:17Speaker 1: was in the flea market and nobody was bidding. No bidders, no, no, no, no, no.
- 31:25Speaker 3: Nobody won. So the cheese heads were like, ah, now,
- 31:28Speaker 3: well we're good, take a hike. We tried to trade
- 31:30Speaker 3: and nobody wanted to.
- 31:31Speaker 1: You don't want to take a pay cut, get the
- 31:33Speaker 1: heck out of here, and don't let the state of
- 31:35Speaker 1: Wisconsin state line kick your ass when you leave her.
- 31:39Speaker 1: So the big reason why after a minutes long malar
- 31:43Speaker 1: investigation is the bugaboo, the injury bug and durability significant concern,
- 31:52Speaker 1: significant concern. There is no durability and Alexander has missed
- 31:57Speaker 1: twenty games over the last two seasons. Now, I didn't
- 31:59Speaker 1: pla play in the NFL, and I'm not some former coach.
- 32:02Speaker 1: I'm just a gas bag. Don't think that's good. Don't
- 32:05Speaker 1: think oh, you're being mean, Ben, I know I'm a
- 32:09Speaker 1: shock jock. Missing twenty days of work when you only
- 32:12Speaker 1: play seventeen.
- 32:14Speaker 3: A year is not particularly good over a two year period.
- 32:18Speaker 3: You're such a hater. You're a player hater. Okay, I
- 32:21Speaker 3: know I Anyway, he has had.
- 32:24Speaker 1: Back problems, shoulder problems, other injuries. Played only seven games
- 32:29Speaker 1: each of the last two years, and Jaira is twenty.
- 32:33Speaker 3: Eight, which is not old. Not old.
- 32:36Speaker 1: However, we know what happens when you get close to
- 32:40Speaker 1: thirty or you cross over thirty, and the injuries start
- 32:44Speaker 1: piling up up up like laundry when you don't do
- 32:46Speaker 1: the laundry for a day or two and it piles up,
- 32:49Speaker 1: or you don't do the dishes, and then you get
- 32:51Speaker 1: to like.
- 32:51Speaker 3: The flies hovering around.
- 32:53Speaker 1: And they're eating like that that tomato sauce that's on
- 32:55Speaker 1: the plate from the spaghetti that you had, and it's disgusting,
- 32:58Speaker 1: and they're picking at the mac and cheese and they
- 33:00Speaker 1: get the lids just terrible. Uh So you got to
- 33:03Speaker 1: take care of this stuff. And so he will find
- 33:06Speaker 1: a job. We don't doubt that. But generally these guys
- 33:09Speaker 1: get slow, they get soft, and they they're cooked at
- 33:13Speaker 1: that point, and we'll see. We would be surprised if
- 33:17Speaker 1: here Alexander has a career renaissance in some other laundry,
- 33:22Speaker 1: but we'll find out. I'm assuming he'll get a job
- 33:24Speaker 1: here pretty soon. Training camps open up in about a
- 33:28Speaker 1: month and a half from most teams in the NFL,
- 33:31Speaker 1: so he's got a little bit of time to play with.
- 33:34Speaker 3: He's got again, he's got a name. People know who
- 33:36Speaker 3: he is.
- 33:36Speaker 1: Not a lot of defensive players you know who they are,
- 33:38Speaker 1: but even a casual NFL fan would know that name.
- 33:41Speaker 2: To hear Alexander, be sure to catch live editions of
- 33:44Speaker 2: the Ben Meller Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven
- 33:47Speaker 2: pm Pacific.
- 33:47Speaker 3: Here we go, Here we go, to the thirty we go.
- 33:53Speaker 2: This is one Big Ben gets Grail all right.
- 33:57Speaker 4: Cool WWE superstar Seth Rowlin has some hot NFL takes
- 34:02Speaker 4: and a recent podcast appearance, Rolin says that he thinks
- 34:05Speaker 4: Caleb Williams will have a better season than Jayden Daniels.
- 34:07Speaker 4: This year. He cided better coaching for Williams and a
- 34:10Speaker 4: sophomore slump for Daniels. Now, Ben Williams being better than
- 34:14Speaker 4: Daniels might be ridiculous, But do you think Daniels will
- 34:17Speaker 4: have a sophomore slump?
- 34:18Speaker 1: Well, the team formerly knows the Redskins are gonna be
- 34:21Speaker 1: playing a tougher schedule and all that, so.
- 34:25Speaker 3: You move your mic by way.
- 34:26Speaker 1: The issue here is whether or not they can get
- 34:28Speaker 1: back to the NFC title game. No, I would not
- 34:30Speaker 1: think Washington is getting back to the NFC title game.
- 34:33Speaker 1: So by that account, they will have a worse season
- 34:35Speaker 1: in year two than he did in year one. I'm
- 34:39Speaker 1: not taking my takes from Seth Rolds. I'm skeptical about
- 34:41Speaker 1: Caleb Williams. Still, there's a lot he's got to improve
- 34:45Speaker 1: in a short amount of time.
- 34:46Speaker 4: Next, Craig Kimberle made a very brief return to the
- 34:49Speaker 4: Atlanta Braves, being called up Friday and then sent back
- 34:52Speaker 4: down on Saturday. Braves coach Brian Snicker called Kimberl's scoreless
- 34:56Speaker 4: outing lucky.
- 34:57Speaker 3: Now, that's not nice.
- 35:00Speaker 4: I know, it seems Kimberl's Major league career maybe nearing
- 35:03Speaker 4: its end. Is he a Hall of Famer?
- 35:06Speaker 1: No?
- 35:07Speaker 3: I mean the issue is the same numbers. He was
- 35:10Speaker 3: a Rookie of the Year. He's made a bunch of
- 35:11Speaker 3: all story.
- 35:11Speaker 1: But if you go by just the pure numbers, yes,
- 35:14Speaker 1: he didn't look like a Hall of Famer, though, I
- 35:16Speaker 1: vote know.
- 35:17Speaker 4: Next, before Kershaw helped lead the Dodgers to a win
- 35:20Speaker 4: over the Cardinals on Sunday, Redbirds attempted to detroy Kershaw
- 35:22Speaker 4: by showing the three on run home run he gave
- 35:24Speaker 4: up in the twenty fourteen NLDS. After the game, Kershaw
- 35:27Speaker 4: called it bush league? Was it bush league?
- 35:29Speaker 3: Ben? No, it's hilarious. Don't give up home runs like that, Tarshaw.
- 35:33Speaker 1: You run ten years of my life.
- 35:37Speaker 3: That's a win.
- 35:38Speaker 4: Hold.
