- 1:37Speaker 2: the airport in Denver if he still works there. He
- 1:40Speaker 2: used to work there and Rob the goat Man. There's
- 1:44Speaker 2: a couple of goat men, but there's only one Rob
- 1:47Speaker 2: the goat Man, so there you go. And also Van
- 1:50Speaker 2: the one legged Bama Man, who reminds me that this
- 1:53Speaker 2: portion of the Ben Maler Shawn Fox made possible in
- 1:56Speaker 2: part by our friends at tire Rack. That's right, tire
- 2:00Speaker 2: I know, thumbs up, thumbs down, Eddie likes it.
- 2:02Speaker 3: Yes.
- 2:02Speaker 2: For over forty years, ty Iraq has been helping customers
- 2:06Speaker 2: like Tommy in Atlanta find the right tires for how,
- 2:09Speaker 2: what and where they drive, ship fast and free back
- 2:12Speaker 2: by free road hazard protection with convenient installation options like
- 2:16Speaker 2: mobile tire installation tire raq dot com. The way tire
- 2:21Speaker 2: buying should be. So our lead this hour from Cincinnati.
- 2:27Speaker 2: We go to Cincinnati. We do not go back and
- 2:30Speaker 2: rehash the Monday night game, the Cowboys winning big over
- 2:34Speaker 2: the Raiders, but our leaders from Cincinnati, where the flem flies.
- 2:39Speaker 2: The talk follows. When the flem flies, the talk follows.
- 2:45Speaker 2: Follow up, follow up, to a previous Mallar monologue, we
- 2:49Speaker 2: now have the Court of the NFL ruling on what happened.
- 2:54Speaker 2: You might remember Bengals wide receiver Jalen or Jamar rather
- 2:58Speaker 2: Jamar Chase, the Bengal wide receiver, Jamar Chase, got into
- 3:03Speaker 2: it with Jalen Ramsey, the journeyman defensive back. They went
- 3:06Speaker 2: back and forth. Ramsey was ejected and he said postinghimad listen,
- 3:12Speaker 2: that guy sped on me. That guy's a spitter, and
- 3:16Speaker 2: uh well mol oh my god. Well, the NFL's ruled
- 3:19Speaker 2: because at the time Jamar Chase said, well, I didn't
- 3:22Speaker 2: do it. I didn't I didn't spit.
- 3:25Speaker 1: No spit for me. Didn't happen.
- 3:28Speaker 2: Well, it turns out that Bengel's wide receiver Jamar Chase
- 3:31Speaker 2: has been suspended for one game one game for spitting
- 3:36Speaker 2: on Jalen Ramsey. Chase can and will appeal the NFL's
- 3:42Speaker 2: ruling to suspend him.
- 3:45Speaker 1: They say, it's it's up.
- 3:46Speaker 4: In the air.
- 3:46Speaker 2: I've heard he has already started the appeal process. The
- 3:51Speaker 2: evidence is overwhelming, overwhelming evidence that he did it, and
- 3:58Speaker 2: barring some kind of elevel and our plea deal, some
- 4:02Speaker 2: kind of pardon, from the NFL. Jamar Chase will miss
- 4:07Speaker 2: the week twelve game against the New England Patriots. If
- 4:11Speaker 2: the suspension is upheld, he'll be out. So that is
- 4:15Speaker 2: a good jumping off point. Let us discuss the question
- 4:18Speaker 2: did did Bengals wide receiver Jamar Chase actions warrant the
- 4:25Speaker 2: one game NFL suspension? So my observations this, I have
- 4:29Speaker 2: Planet Earth, Anthony Bourdain, and rotting barn in the woods,
- 4:36Speaker 2: and we will combine all of these things together and
- 4:40Speaker 2: we are going to make some.
- 4:41Speaker 1: Delicious kettle corn.
- 4:43Speaker 2: Man, if you get kettlecorn with just the right salt
- 4:47Speaker 2: and sugar, it's one of.
- 4:48Speaker 1: The great things. Not good for your teeth, but it's
- 4:50Speaker 1: really good, all right. So number one number.
- 4:56Speaker 2: To answer the question, did Jamar Chase action did his
- 4:59Speaker 2: actions warrant the suspensioned? Uh, I'm gonna go a hell
- 5:02Speaker 2: to the yeah with a giant chunk of mucus, big
- 5:08Speaker 2: gooey green gob of mucus. Yes, yes, yes, yes. The
- 5:12Speaker 2: tape don't lie, the tape don't lie. We saw it.
- 5:16Speaker 2: It wasn't ai. You spin on a guy, you're out.
- 5:19Speaker 2: You spin on a guy, you're right now. In the
- 5:21Speaker 2: old days, they would encourage spitting, but not right now.
- 5:25Speaker 2: Not right now. There's really no gray area on this.
- 5:28Speaker 2: Like I was thinking about as I was driving in,
- 5:30Speaker 2: was there any really out on this that you can
- 5:33Speaker 2: you can go to. It's the single most disrespectful thing
- 5:39Speaker 2: that one can do on a football field outside of
- 5:41Speaker 2: kicking someone in the nuts. You kick him in the pills.
- 5:45Speaker 2: That's pretty bad, I would say, spitting a giant loogie
- 5:50Speaker 2: right there in your face.
- 5:52Speaker 1: Man, that's it.
- 5:54Speaker 2: And it's it's.
- 5:55Speaker 1: On four K video. It's not like, who's a I.
- 6:00Speaker 2: Okay, crystal clear pristine video. And it looks like someone
- 6:07Speaker 2: shot the video on a brand new iPhone. Like you
- 6:11Speaker 2: know how you watch those commercials like the iPhone and
- 6:13Speaker 2: they show like yeah, they slow down everything and they
- 6:16Speaker 2: show you how good the camera is.
- 6:17Speaker 5: It.
- 6:17Speaker 2: It was that kind of thing. It was like, oh, man,
- 6:19Speaker 2: that's really good. Look at that camera. Wow, that's expensive,
- 6:22Speaker 2: but that's a good camera. I can see look at
- 6:24Speaker 2: I can see that. I can see the little flem,
- 6:27Speaker 2: the pieces of phlam. I could see it coming out
- 6:29Speaker 2: of the mouth of the player. You can literally see
- 6:31Speaker 2: the lugie. The launch angle. Baseball people love launch angle.
- 6:35Speaker 2: You could see the launch angle on the lugie and
- 6:38Speaker 2: as it approached Jalen Ramsey and his shoulder pads, you
- 6:42Speaker 2: could see it the launch angle. I'll have to check
- 6:45Speaker 2: with the Elias Sports Bureau, but it looked like one
- 6:47Speaker 2: of those nature documentaries. I'm a big documentary guy, so
- 6:51Speaker 2: I watched even nature documentaries because that's exciting life that
- 6:54Speaker 2: I live as a middle aged man. So I watched
- 6:56Speaker 2: these nature documentaries and it's like Planet Earth, the migrat
- 7:00Speaker 2: of the saliva wad and you get some big voiceover
- 7:04Speaker 2: guy there with a deep voice, and you do the
- 7:07Speaker 2: voice over. There, the giant blob just gliding through the
- 7:11Speaker 2: air on a thermal current right to the player.
- 7:15Speaker 1: Boom. President has been set. We know that we talked
- 7:19Speaker 1: about this.
- 7:19Speaker 2: This is the at least the second spinning monologue that
- 7:24Speaker 2: we've gotten. Remember the first game of the NFL season
- 7:27Speaker 2: Philadelphia in Dallas, there was the there was Originally it
- 7:31Speaker 2: was like Dak Prescott spit, but he you're allowed to
- 7:35Speaker 2: spit as long as the phlem does not touch another
- 7:38Speaker 2: human being. You can spin on the ground, which proves
- 7:40Speaker 2: the NFL does not respect Mother Earth. Because the NFL
- 7:44Speaker 2: allows you to spit giant wads of mucus onto Mother Earth.
- 7:48Speaker 2: But if you spin on another human being, it becomes problematic.
- 7:52Speaker 2: So Jalen Carter got tossed before the game. That counted
- 7:56Speaker 2: as a He was like on the field, but he
- 7:58Speaker 2: didn't play in a play, an actual snap, and so
- 8:02Speaker 2: that counted as a game suspension. So actions create consequences,
- 8:07Speaker 2: we all know that. And you do the crime, and
- 8:10Speaker 2: you have to do the time. In this case, if
- 8:12Speaker 2: you spit crime, you spit time. You have to do that.
- 8:17Speaker 2: You have to do that. So and what would the
- 8:19Speaker 2: defense be? Let's try to workshop that. What do you
- 8:23Speaker 2: think the defense would be for Jamar Chase, the Bengal
- 8:26Speaker 2: wide receiver.
- 8:27Speaker 1: Like, what would the defense be?
- 8:30Speaker 2: Sorry, your honor, I'm sorry to have to go over
- 8:32Speaker 2: this with you. I missed the bullseye. The lugi actually drifted,
- 8:37Speaker 2: and since the lugi drifted, I should only be suspended
- 8:40Speaker 2: for the first half. Well, we don't do that. We
- 8:43Speaker 2: do full game, we don't do first time. But no, no, no,
- 8:46Speaker 2: I did not hit Ramsey in the face with the phlem.
- 8:50Speaker 2: I did not, Like, what are we doing? You don't
- 8:55Speaker 2: get leniency because your spit had bad wind resistance, which
- 9:00Speaker 2: is what happened to Jamar Chase here is he hit
- 9:02Speaker 2: the shoulder pad the jersey, but not it did not appear.
- 9:05Speaker 2: There might have been some shrapnel, mucus, little bits of
- 9:11Speaker 2: bacteria that hit Ramsey, but the main lugi and I
- 9:15Speaker 2: watched this about one hundred times, the main lugi hit
- 9:19Speaker 2: the jersey shoulder pad area of Jalen Ramsey. You know,
- 9:23Speaker 2: so just listen, just own it. You hawk to it,
- 9:26Speaker 2: and that's what you did, and you know, there you go.
- 9:32Speaker 2: Now the good news I'll be Benny Brightside because I
- 9:34Speaker 2: am not just a negative overnight gas bag. I will
- 9:37Speaker 2: be Benny Brightside here and as Benny Brightside. The good
- 9:40Speaker 2: news is Jamar Chase now has dinner reservations with legends
- 9:44Speaker 2: like Roberto Alomar and Carl Everett and who else a
- 9:49Speaker 2: Jalen Carter, Bill Romanowski, the greatest Rojon Rondo. I remember
- 9:54Speaker 2: when he spat on some of you did a monologue
- 9:56Speaker 2: about that. Reggie Miller a spinner.
- 9:58Speaker 1: Do you know that?
- 9:59Speaker 2: Yeah, Reggie Miller, so pose you spat on a fan
- 10:02Speaker 2: back in the day with the Pacers. So now, how
- 10:05Speaker 2: cool is that Jamar Chase can can pass the breadsticks
- 10:09Speaker 2: around the table have some Fetacini Alfredo with Roberto A.
- 10:13Speaker 2: Lamar and Carl Everett and Jalen Carter and Bill Romanowski
- 10:18Speaker 2: and all those guys. Rondo, that's a holy trinity of
- 10:21Speaker 2: flem It's great, all right. Meanwhile, to La we go
- 10:27Speaker 2: another wide receiver in the headlines, but for different reasons,
- 10:30Speaker 2: that would be pook Gotten Nakua. It was a breakout
- 10:34Speaker 2: star a little while back for the Rams and has
- 10:37Speaker 2: continued to be a very efficient player for the Rams. Now.
- 10:41Speaker 2: He played some grab ass with Pat McAfee, because that's
- 10:43Speaker 2: all you can do is play grab ass with Pat McAfee.
- 10:46Speaker 1: But in this particular interview.
- 10:48Speaker 2: On Zoom, Pat McAfee was were playing grab ass and
- 10:52Speaker 2: Pooka Nakua said that stepping out of bounds with the
- 10:57Speaker 2: ball is soft with a capital as. It's soft, and
- 11:02Speaker 2: he's never going to do it. He's never gonna do it,
- 11:05Speaker 2: and this of course created some Oh my god, Sean
- 11:09Speaker 2: mcvain needs to talk to him.
- 11:11Speaker 1: He's gonna get himself killed. Oh my god. Yeah, people
- 11:17Speaker 1: that panic over everything you lose.
- 11:18Speaker 2: There is fake people, all right, question, what's the message
- 11:24Speaker 2: do you have a message to the people concerned about
- 11:27Speaker 2: Rams Wide? Receiver Puka Nakua and the physical style of
- 11:32Speaker 2: football which he appears to enjoy. So yes to those
- 11:38Speaker 2: in the corner of the room, the back right hand
- 11:40Speaker 2: corner of the room, that's you's the back left hand
- 11:43Speaker 2: corner of the room. The out of an abundance of
- 11:46Speaker 2: caution crowd as I like to call them, clutching their
- 11:49Speaker 2: pearls in the fetal position. They've got pearls in one hand.
- 11:53Speaker 2: They're sucking their thumb, but they should be. No, they
- 11:56Speaker 2: shouldn't be doing that because that bad hygiene. Give me
- 12:00Speaker 2: a break, Okay, please come on. I know that you've
- 12:05Speaker 2: tried to change, and you have succeeded in changing. This
- 12:07Speaker 2: is not the game of football. I grew up with
- 12:09Speaker 2: the game of football I'm watching now. I realize that.
- 12:11Speaker 2: And if you want finesse, if that's what you're gunning for,
- 12:14Speaker 2: I would like for theess. I recommend you go on
- 12:17Speaker 2: the YouTube and watch some pickleball highlights.
- 12:19Speaker 1: Very exciting. Watch the pickle ball. The injuries, Eh, what
- 12:24Speaker 1: about the longevity?
- 12:26Speaker 2: Oh my god, the wear and tear, the blankety blank
- 12:29Speaker 2: blank blank blank blank, Spare me, spare me now, this
- 12:35Speaker 2: is Pooga Nakou's identity. This is his brand, this's how
- 12:38Speaker 2: he plays, it's who he is. Good for him, you know,
- 12:43Speaker 2: it's a bit of a throwback. I used to use
- 12:47Speaker 2: those words gamer, whatever you want to say. Not a
- 12:49Speaker 2: gamer like today, but one of the few guys in
- 12:53Speaker 2: the NFL that likely drives around with like a linel
- 12:58Speaker 2: Richie Cassette stuck to the to the tape deck there.
- 13:01Speaker 2: And he also, much like myself and al Michaels, is
- 13:04Speaker 2: anti vegetable, so we have that in common. There's a
- 13:08Speaker 2: kinship I have with Pooka Nkua. He's taken a strong
- 13:12Speaker 2: anti vegetable position and that's working. And this is working
- 13:17Speaker 2: as well. He's third in the league in catches thirteen yards.
- 13:20Speaker 2: I'd believe he's fourth in touchdown. It's pookin the coua.
- 13:24Speaker 2: And if that is a reckless style of football, which
- 13:26Speaker 2: you knuckleheads, some of you, I'm talking to a very
- 13:29Speaker 2: small percentage of the people listening, but you know who
- 13:32Speaker 2: you are. You know, hey, if that's reckless, can I
- 13:36Speaker 2: get a roster full of reckless players? I would like
- 13:39Speaker 2: to have that. I love the way he plays. Good
- 13:42Speaker 2: for him, And as the late great Anthony Bourdain, one
- 13:47Speaker 2: of the all time wonderful TV chefs in My life,
- 13:49Speaker 2: Anthony Bourdaine said, your body is not a temple. It
- 13:54Speaker 2: is an amusement park. It's an amusement park ride and
- 13:58Speaker 2: might as well enjoy it. And yeah, he's doing it.
- 14:01Speaker 2: And you get on the ride and you buckle up
- 14:04Speaker 2: and all that. You scream your lungs out, and you
- 14:07Speaker 2: hope the bolts don't fall off the ride because the
- 14:10Speaker 2: carnival was the guy the carnival, the carneie was doing
- 14:13Speaker 2: meth in the back. You hope that doesn't have But listen,
- 14:17Speaker 2: they're worried to be were worried about pooka Nkua not
- 14:20Speaker 2: stepping out of bounds. Oh my god, he's gotta step
- 14:23Speaker 2: out of bounds. Half the league gets hurt getting out
- 14:27Speaker 2: of bed. The other half get hurt on walk crughs.
- 14:32Speaker 2: So life in the NFL is short. Whether you're tiptoeing
- 14:36Speaker 2: through the tulips and whether you're trucking a safety a
- 14:42Speaker 2: truck stick to a safety, it doesn't matter. And as
- 14:47Speaker 2: the great Huey Lewis, one of the great lines in
- 14:49Speaker 2: musicret said, We're not here for a long time, We're
- 14:51Speaker 2: here for a good time. And Pooka is living that out.
- 14:54Speaker 1: Good for him. We don't need no catch. We need dolls.
- 14:58Speaker 1: We need doll we got. He's a dog. He's a dog.
- 15:02Speaker 2: He wants he wants the smoke. Now, he better not
- 15:06Speaker 2: run out of bounds this week or everyone's well, you said.
- 15:08Speaker 1: You were going to run out of a buck.
- 15:09Speaker 2: You run out of bound.
- 15:12Speaker 1: So I just let the guy play his way. It's working.
- 15:16Speaker 2: The Rams are tied for the top record in the NFC,
- 15:19Speaker 2: although they're behind the Eagles because of the tie breaker.
- 15:21Speaker 1: And plus this listen is Pooka's story. It's not your story,
- 15:24Speaker 1: it's his story.
- 15:26Speaker 2: And he's clearly doesn't have an anxiety Pooka Nicole based
- 15:30Speaker 2: on what has happened here. And he's out there stiff
- 15:32Speaker 2: arming people and whatnot. You know, that's that's just how
- 15:36Speaker 2: he is. He's in a different zip code than a
- 15:37Speaker 2: lot of the guys that are playing today, like Justin
- 15:40Speaker 2: Jefferson of the Vikings, who makes business decisions, and you
- 15:43Speaker 2: all you kiss his ass. Oh, he made a good
- 15:47Speaker 2: a couple of interceptions that ravens game and he didn't
- 15:50Speaker 2: even bother to try to make a play because that's him.
- 15:54Speaker 2: That's that's in his DNA, justin Jefferson, He's not He's
- 15:57Speaker 2: not a dog. No, no, no, he's a kiddie cat
- 16:00Speaker 2: cat gi it cat here kid kitty, kitty here, kidding kitty. Meanwhile,
- 16:04Speaker 2: to college football, that's right. Don't tell anyone the rare
- 16:09Speaker 2: and appropriate mention of college football. I bring this up
- 16:12Speaker 2: because it's a good story, and you know the mantra.
- 16:16Speaker 2: Maybe you don't know the mantra. We have a mantra.
- 16:18Speaker 2: I have no idea one of the things be So
- 16:20Speaker 2: how can you do a talk reader. I've been doing
- 16:21Speaker 2: this for a long time. I got to do this
- 16:22Speaker 2: every day, so every day it's different. If I was
- 16:25Speaker 2: talking about the same stuff every day, I would lose
- 16:27Speaker 2: my freaking mind.
- 16:29Speaker 1: In fact, I don't even do what all the.
- 16:30Speaker 2: Good talk shows, you know, these big time guys like
- 16:33Speaker 2: Cowhard and Dan Patrick, they do like one topic for
- 16:35Speaker 2: three hours. They don't even do four hours. They'll do
- 16:38Speaker 2: one topic. That's what most of the shows do. I
- 16:40Speaker 2: get bared out of my mind if I did one topic. Okay,
- 16:43Speaker 2: I can't do one topic. I gotta change it up
- 16:46Speaker 2: every hour anyway, So college football get to the point, please,
- 16:48Speaker 2: So the big news out.
- 16:50Speaker 1: It's not done done.
- 16:51Speaker 2: I don't believe the DOCU sign has gone through. However,
- 16:55Speaker 2: it appears James Franklin has found a new job. The
- 16:57Speaker 2: old Penn State coach has a new game. So question,
- 17:02Speaker 2: James Franklin to Virginia Tech. Is this a good landing
- 17:08Speaker 2: spot or not for James Franklin. So after a minutes
- 17:13Speaker 2: long deliberation of the available jobs and looking at the
- 17:18Speaker 2: resume of James Franklin, I have determined yes with a
- 17:23Speaker 2: capitol Y, Yes with a capitol Y.
- 17:25Speaker 1: Here's why.
- 17:26Speaker 2: Because James Franklin is walking out of a big time
- 17:31Speaker 2: job at Penn State, which he clearly failed at against
- 17:33Speaker 2: top opponents, and now he is going to one of
- 17:36Speaker 2: the ultimate fixer upper gigs in college football?
- 17:41Speaker 1: Can we all agree to anyone disagree with that?
- 17:43Speaker 2: Does anyone disagree that the Virginia Tech job is a
- 17:47Speaker 2: great fixer upper? The thing has been sitting on cinderblocks
- 17:50Speaker 2: since Frank Beemer retired, and the porch is collapsing a
- 17:54Speaker 2: little bit. You drive by, it's really tough to look at.
- 17:57Speaker 2: The porch is collapsing, the roof leaks, there's raccoons living
- 18:01Speaker 2: in the in the attic it's a real mess, and
- 18:04Speaker 2: it's like James Franklin comes in here.
- 18:06Speaker 1: This should be a reality.
- 18:07Speaker 2: TV show, one of those HGTV shows where full gut
- 18:13Speaker 2: rehab with James Franklin, quirky fun you know, go down
- 18:18Speaker 2: to Home Depot, go down to Low's, buy a bunch.
- 18:20Speaker 1: Of lumber, and Blacksburg.
- 18:23Speaker 2: Virginia has not mattered for years, for years, it hasn't better.
- 18:28Speaker 2: The last ten win season twenty sixteen, the last ACC title.
- 18:33Speaker 1: It's been almost a generation.
- 18:35Speaker 2: It's twenty ten, so we're about fifteen years twenty years
- 18:39Speaker 2: as a generation, so another five years it will have
- 18:42Speaker 2: been a generation. And the program is essentially it's a
- 18:45Speaker 2: it's a time capsule. It's kind of like I was
- 18:48Speaker 2: having some conversations with someone who's a friend of mine
- 18:52Speaker 2: and we were talking about how like you tell somebody
- 18:54Speaker 2: who's under the age of like twenty that the Raiders
- 18:57Speaker 2: and Cowboys used to be a big deal. And I said,
- 18:59Speaker 2: what are you talking about. Will you tell someone under
- 19:01Speaker 2: the age of like thirty, You say, well, Virginia Tech
- 19:05Speaker 2: used to matter, and they said, no, you're out of
- 19:08Speaker 2: your mind, you boomer.
- 19:09Speaker 1: But they did.
- 19:10Speaker 2: I remember, it was like a time capsule when Michael
- 19:13Speaker 2: Vick was there for a couple of years. You kind
- 19:16Speaker 2: of dust it off. You squint really hard, and you
- 19:19Speaker 2: might see a highlight from nineteen ninety nine. My god,
- 19:22Speaker 2: it's it's been a while. But that's why this is
- 19:27Speaker 2: a perfect fit for James Franklin. The blessing of low
- 19:32Speaker 2: expectations and a guy who's still got old juice. James
- 19:37Speaker 2: Franklin go out in the recruiting trail. Of course, get
- 19:40Speaker 2: these days, you got to have a big booster to
- 19:42Speaker 2: cut checks. But he knows the region. That's the point.
- 19:45Speaker 2: He knows the region. The same pipelines that Penn State
- 19:49Speaker 2: looked at to get offensive linemen, defensive linemen and all
- 19:52Speaker 2: that Virginia Tech they do. They do the hokey pokey
- 19:55Speaker 2: and they're doing the same thing. And the other thing
- 19:58Speaker 2: is Franklin does not have to build old a spaceship here.
- 20:02Speaker 2: You're not trying to go to Mars. You just have
- 20:05Speaker 2: to have the Hokies look like a respectable program, something
- 20:09Speaker 2: other than a rotting barn out in the woods, which
- 20:11Speaker 2: is what they look like right now, a rotting barn
- 20:13Speaker 2: out in the woods. And it's a it's a great
- 20:16Speaker 2: bounce back job. It's the old trampoline. Franklin doesn't have
- 20:19Speaker 2: to win a national title. That's not happening. He's win
- 20:23Speaker 2: nine games, have a couple of nine win seasons at
- 20:26Speaker 2: Virginia Tech. Sniff just the expanded playoff. Something smells weird,
- 20:34Speaker 2: but just slip it in. Boom boom boom boom boom boom.
- 20:38Speaker 2: He's back, baby, he's back on the coaching seesaw. You're down,
- 20:42Speaker 2: you're up, you're down, You're up, and he'll get floated
- 20:44Speaker 2: for some big money jobs again. So well, Franklin, he
- 20:48Speaker 2: went down to Virginia Tech, and now he's ready to
- 20:50Speaker 2: bounce back up to a big ten or an SEC job.
- 20:53Speaker 2: And there you go. The minute some athletic director panics
- 20:58Speaker 2: and all that and we got hi this guy Franklin,
- 21:01Speaker 2: and they'll forget. They'll have amnesia about everything that happened
- 21:04Speaker 2: at Penn State. And so it's the classic real estate play.
- 21:09Speaker 2: You buy the rundown property, you slap some pain on it,
- 21:13Speaker 2: you fix the issues with the foundation, you do enough
- 21:16Speaker 2: there that you stop the tilting, and then you flip it,
- 21:20Speaker 2: and you flip it real good. You flip it up
- 21:22Speaker 2: in the air. Everywhere and Virginia Tech. It's a good
- 21:26Speaker 2: marriage because they need relevance. They've been off the grid
- 21:28Speaker 2: at Virginia Tech for a while. Franklin needs redemption. So
- 21:33Speaker 2: it's a transactional relationship, is what it is for James Franklin.
- 21:37Speaker 1: It's a bit cynical.
- 21:40Speaker 2: That's not a bad thing, and it's perfect because the
- 21:43Speaker 2: Hokies again, they're worn down. They're a time ravaged relic
- 21:48Speaker 2: that was good twenty five years ago. But if James Franklin,
- 21:52Speaker 2: if he can just get them from ramshackle to respectable Ramshackle,
- 21:58Speaker 2: the respectable, get them out of the ten district, then
- 22:01Speaker 2: he becomes a hot name again and a good gig
- 22:04Speaker 2: will find him with a great escape route, which is
- 22:07Speaker 2: out of Virginia Tech. Everyone will be happy until he leaves,
- 22:11Speaker 2: and then the people of Virginia Tech will be upset.
- 22:14Speaker 2: And the best laid plans of mice and men. This
- 22:16Speaker 2: was supposed to be Michael Vick's job, remember, except Michael
- 22:19Speaker 2: Vick's done a terrible job in his coaching debut.
- 22:21Speaker 1: But the idea was that vic would go.
- 22:23Speaker 2: Down coach at the lower level for a couple of
- 22:25Speaker 2: years and they end up at Virginia Tech. He could
- 22:26Speaker 2: still end up in Virginia Tech if he figures out
- 22:28Speaker 2: how to coach Michael Vick, because Jane Franklin, if he's
- 22:31Speaker 2: any good, will not be at Virginia Tech very long.
- 22:33Speaker 2: And if he sucks, he won't be at Virginia Tech
- 22:35Speaker 2: very long because they'll get rid of him. It is
- 22:37Speaker 2: the Ben Maller Show. If you'd like to be part
- 22:39Speaker 2: eight seven seven ninety nine of five. Now, I think
- 22:41Speaker 2: we have asked a weed Man. I don't know. I
- 22:42Speaker 2: don't see him online there, so hopefully we'll get a
- 22:45Speaker 2: hold of him. If not, we'll just to get back

- 22:54Speaker 2: the show, and he thinks he is solving all of
- 22:57Speaker 2: life's problems. In a segment of Overnight Sports Radio, he
- 23:00Speaker 2: thinks he's just answering all the lives problems. So if
- 23:03Speaker 2: you want to ask him a question, you can do that,
- 23:06Speaker 2: assuming he calls in. If not, we'll just take radular calls.

- 26:17Speaker 2: Weed Man's got a government provided phone, the Obama phone,
- 26:20Speaker 2: and he the phone went, it didn't ring it. It
- 26:24Speaker 2: said this number is not available, which is usual. That
- 26:27Speaker 2: that means that either you're right, yeah, yeah, like he's
- 26:31Speaker 2: probably he's probably in jail. And we we had our
- 26:36Speaker 2: we used to have our guy in the Bay Area
- 26:37Speaker 2: who passed away, who used to check the jail records
- 26:40Speaker 2: to find weed Man in jail.
- 26:42Speaker 1: But he's not the one who did that.
- 26:44Speaker 2: Yeah, he would look for he would look for the
- 26:46Speaker 2: raider A's Tom Brady roast fan. Yeah, but he's not
- 26:49Speaker 2: around any more unfortunately, so we don't know. But yeah,
- 26:53Speaker 2: he passed away at the end of last year, so
- 26:54Speaker 2: who knows what's going on with him. I don't know,
- 26:58Speaker 2: but hopefully he's okay. I do have Lisa's contact information,
- 27:02Speaker 2: believe it or not. She's emailed the show before or
- 27:07Speaker 2: email me about about stuff, so I can contact Lisa
- 27:09Speaker 2: who's on Long Island and see if I can find out.
- 27:11Speaker 2: But he's not here right now, so we'll go on
- 27:13Speaker 2: with the regular show. I know, Blind Scott, you're very
- 27:15Speaker 2: disappointed that we don't have weed Man. You had a
- 27:17Speaker 2: question for him.
- 27:18Speaker 6: I know, I know weed Man in IRL. We're actually friends.
- 27:23Speaker 6: I don't know, like he has different numbers, but I
- 27:25Speaker 6: have thought voicemails deepen up until like a month ago
- 27:28Speaker 6: from him. One time Ed and Christina rented a car
- 27:31Speaker 6: in Portland, Maine. Remember they went to see him, and
- 27:33Speaker 6: they thought they could leave the car down there, and
- 27:35Speaker 6: then they drove all the way back up here.
- 27:37Speaker 2: Yeah, they had to drive all the way back because
- 27:39Speaker 2: if they had left the car in Miami, they would
- 27:41Speaker 2: it would cost like five thousand dollars or something to
- 27:44Speaker 2: leave the car shipped or just lead to leave it there.
- 27:46Speaker 6: Yea, yeah, so they the Tiny Tim. He made three
- 27:50Speaker 6: appearances on Howard Stern in nineteen nine.
- 27:53Speaker 2: I was I was actually telling Lorena and Coop about
- 27:56Speaker 2: some of the legendary Tiny Tim appearances back before whence
- 28:00Speaker 2: was good, back in the day. Yeah.
- 28:02Speaker 6: Yeah, So I'd like to get on radio shows like that,
- 28:04Speaker 6: but they won't let me go into the studio. So
- 28:07Speaker 6: I have bits and stuff like that, and I'm trying
- 28:10Speaker 6: really high to emulate that type of radio culture. And
- 28:13Speaker 6: it's hard nowadays, but I do know, like some of
- 28:16Speaker 6: the big people like it.
- 28:17Speaker 2: I radio.
- 28:18Speaker 6: They do do a lot of shows like that still,
- 28:20Speaker 6: but it's just hard because culture is changing so fast
- 28:24Speaker 6: right now. But Tiny Tim was ahead of the time
- 28:26Speaker 6: and culture. You could probably I mean, you don't really
- 28:29Speaker 6: it would be. The good part about Tiny Tim is
- 28:32Speaker 6: he was an alcoholic, so it was really entertaining because
- 28:35Speaker 6: he drank when he was on the air.
- 28:36Speaker 2: You know, yeah, well, he's just probably a bunch of
- 28:40Speaker 2: stuff other than alcohol. Weird Al Yankovic vibes like looking
- 28:44Speaker 2: at weird Out.
- 28:47Speaker 6: He was small though, he wore woman's clothes.
- 28:50Speaker 2: And you know a lot about it's okay, and then.
- 28:57Speaker 6: Lenny Kravitz's daughter is like really famous. Now, what would
- 29:02Speaker 6: your wife check to ask you a question? What would
- 29:04Speaker 6: you wife say if you just started interviewing all these
- 29:06Speaker 6: fans models on the fifth hour?
- 29:07Speaker 3: Like how long?
- 29:09Speaker 1: That's a good question.
- 29:10Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 29:10Speaker 1: I mean, I guess i'd find out if she's listening.
- 29:12Speaker 2: I don't. I don't know.
- 29:14Speaker 1: I'm not attracted to women.
- 29:15Speaker 2: Yeah, well those I might be, but yeah, anyway, who knows? Anyway,
- 29:18Speaker 2: all right, very nice, I thank you, Scott. Hey, one
- 29:22Speaker 2: more thing never goes well.
- 29:24Speaker 6: You know that your vacation time you haven't taken much
- 29:27Speaker 6: to have you take him to take a week before.
- 29:29Speaker 6: I don't know.
- 29:30Speaker 1: I have a job, I like, I will. What were
- 29:34Speaker 1: you worried about me taking time off?
- 29:35Speaker 2: Are you concerned?
- 29:36Speaker 7: Yeah?

- 29:40Speaker 1: Least, cruise up your schedule.
- 29:42Speaker 2: Okay, I actually will be working on Thanksgiving. I believe
- 29:47Speaker 2: I was asked by the boss about that. I don't.
- 29:49Speaker 3: I will not.
- 29:50Speaker 6: That's great.
- 29:50Speaker 2: I don't see any reason not to work on Thanksgiving.
- 29:53Speaker 2: Four football games on Thanksgiving Day after thanks even the
- 29:57Speaker 2: football game.
- 29:57Speaker 4: So I'm so excited.
- 29:59Speaker 2: The yeah I heard there's probably a wicked marathon on
- 30:04Speaker 2: Thanksgiving one.
- 30:04Speaker 1: I might watch that at night, you know.
- 30:06Speaker 2: Top it off, I.
- 30:07Speaker 6: Heard Kevin Harland talking to Ross Tucker and they were
- 30:11Speaker 6: separating for like three weeks. That's his partner. But Kevin
- 30:13Speaker 6: Harland was making jokes. He was like making like he's
- 30:17Speaker 6: like this is for American Airlines and he was like
- 30:19Speaker 6: talking about his personal experience. He was being a little
- 30:22Speaker 6: goofy tonight. But where's he working for the next three weeks?
- 30:25Speaker 6: Like if they're not going to be together, you know,

- 37:12Speaker 2: Rob the goat Man going with Freddie Mercury is his answer?
- 37:15Speaker 2: Andy and Lionel Lake's going with Christian Ponder. Why would

- 38:02Speaker 2: NW Deeter Brock guest by Ryan Ron in San Diego,
- 38:06Speaker 2: Rich Gannon from Larry D. What say you, Lorena? It
- 38:10Speaker 2: is not George Bland. I guess by a via the right.
- 38:13Speaker 4: I've gotta go with my Dallas Cowboy quarterback Troy Aikman.
- 38:17Speaker 2: You saw him in Wicked. No, that is incorrect. The
- 38:19Speaker 2: correct the answer would be Brian Hoyer way back a
- 38:22Speaker 2: decade ago versus the Dolphins in twenty fifteen.
- 38:26Speaker 1: Brian Hoyer. Here we go, Here we go, Here we go,
- 38:29Speaker 1: Here we go, Here we go, Here we go, down.
- 38:30Speaker 3: To the third degree. This is one big event.
- 38:35Speaker 1: Gets grilled cool it.
- 38:38Speaker 4: Bryce Young has had an up and down career so
- 38:40Speaker 4: far in an up and down season multiple times this
- 38:43Speaker 4: year he seems close to losing his job, but on
- 38:45Speaker 4: Sunday he beat Cam Newton Panthers single game passing record.
- 38:49Speaker 4: Does this game prove that the jury is still out
- 38:51Speaker 4: on Young?
- 38:52Speaker 2: No? Because he'll have a three hundred or four hundred
- 38:54Speaker 2: yard passing game. Then he'll come back and throw for
- 38:56Speaker 2: one hundred and fifty yards and two interceptions or anception
- 39:00Speaker 2: here and a fumble there, and he's I believe he's
- 39:03Speaker 2: been under two hundred yards in every game other than
- 39:07Speaker 2: two this year where he's had breakout games.
- 39:09Speaker 1: That is not something you can build a football team around.
- 39:13Speaker 1: He's not.
- 39:14Speaker 2: Every time I watch him, he sucks. I didn't see
- 39:16Speaker 2: much of the game against Atlanta. Look good, fine now
- 39:19Speaker 2: that the jury is still out.
- 39:20Speaker 4: Next, Miles Garrett is a generational talent on a really
- 39:23Speaker 4: bad team. He got four more sacks on Sunday against
- 39:26Speaker 4: the Ravens to get to fifteen on the season. Do
- 39:29Speaker 4: you think he breaks straighthand and TJ. Watt's record.
- 39:33Speaker 2: Well, the records really not straight hands because of what happened.
- 39:37Speaker 2: Now here's what I'd like to see happen. I want
- 39:38Speaker 2: to see history repeat itself.
- 39:40Speaker 1: Coop. The Brown's final game of.
- 39:42Speaker 2: The season is against the Cincinnati Bengals. I would like
- 39:45Speaker 2: to see Joe Flacco take a dive if he's playing
- 39:48Speaker 2: there and allow allow the record.
- 39:50Speaker 1: But no, I'm gonna I'm gonna go. No, Miles Garrett.
- 39:52Speaker 2: There'll be some kind of injury.
- 39:54Speaker 1: He'll miss out next.
- 39:55Speaker 4: Lebron James is close to returning to the Lakers, and
- 39:58Speaker 4: so far the team has been pretty good without him.
- 40:01Speaker 4: Do you think Lebron's return will help or hurt the team?
- 40:04Speaker 2: They'll inevitably lose a game they're supposed to win with Lebron.
- 40:07Speaker 2: Lebron won't play well and then it'll be killed Lebron.
- 40:10Speaker 2: That'll be here, that goes.
- 40:11Speaker 1: So then let it. Lebron came back, Yo, Lebron, it
- 40:15Speaker 1: was so good without Lebron.
- 40:17Speaker 2: What are they doing? Oh god, that's how that's gonna
- 40:19Speaker 2: go by there? It is malary third degree?
- 40:21Speaker 1: How did we do? He passes that as they went
- 40:23Speaker 1: played on the barn. I won the game. That's right.
- 40:27Speaker 1: Good out the milkman Mike in Colorado.
- 40:30Speaker 2: I won the game.
- 40:30Speaker 1: I want it for him
