- 2:39Speaker 2: In the game of Pigskin Squares, not Hollywood Squares, not
- 2:44Speaker 2: Hollywood Squares, but we're playing pigskin squares. If you look
- 2:48Speaker 2: at the card this weekend, which begins later on Thursday in.
- 2:51Speaker 1: The hood in Inglewood and up to no Gut.
- 2:55Speaker 2: The Chargers hosting the Minnesota Vikings just down the road
- 2:59Speaker 2: from where we broadcast from. And so Sunday night, though,
- 3:03Speaker 2: is the center square in week eight, You've got Aaron
- 3:08Speaker 2: Rodgers wrangling the cheeseheads the prize some cheese curts.
- 3:15Speaker 1: So Rogers chimed in on this.
- 3:16Speaker 2: He was asked about going against his franchise, the franchise
- 3:20Speaker 2: that he's most known for and forever will be known
- 3:22Speaker 2: for playing in Wisconsin, and what did he say, Well,
- 3:27Speaker 2: the Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers said that facing the Packers
- 3:31Speaker 2: this weekend, he said, is quote not a revenge game
- 3:36Speaker 2: for me. Rogers stated, Green Bay drafted Rogers when he
- 3:41Speaker 2: famously if you're old enough to remember the twenty five
- 3:44Speaker 2: draft free fall in free fall in ended up at
- 3:49Speaker 2: number twenty four, was supposed to be a top five
- 3:51Speaker 2: pick in the draft, ended up all the way down
- 3:53Speaker 2: at number twenty four, And he spent the first eighteen
- 3:56Speaker 2: I'm told that's a long time, eighteen years of his
- 3:58Speaker 2: career in the fen Tundra, living in the suburbs of Appleton, Wisconsin.
- 4:04Speaker 2: Rogers says that he doesn't have any animosity, no animosity.
- 4:10Speaker 1: Towards the organization.
- 4:12Speaker 2: He said he had a great relationship with a lot
- 4:14Speaker 2: of people with the Packers.
- 4:17Speaker 1: So it's all we'll combine it all together. It's good
- 4:20Speaker 1: jumping off point.
- 4:20Speaker 2: So let us discuss the question, why is Aaron Rodgers pretending?
- 4:26Speaker 1: Why is he pretending they playing Green Bay.
- 4:29Speaker 2: Is just another game that it's not a revenge game,
- 4:31Speaker 2: it's just a random game.
- 4:33Speaker 1: And Week eight in the NFL. So my thoughts on this.
- 4:36Speaker 2: I've got punch bowl tax deductible and Haunted Cafe, and
- 4:42Speaker 2: we will combine all of these things together and we'll
- 4:47Speaker 2: climb or at the very bottom of the ladder, the
- 4:50Speaker 2: corporate ladder here at Fox Sports Radio.
- 4:52Speaker 1: Doing the overnight show at the very bottom. But we
- 4:53Speaker 1: hope to catch our lucky star.
- 4:55Speaker 2: So a Aaron Rodgers can say whatever whatever he wants.
- 5:02Speaker 1: Obviously he did and he does all the time.
- 5:05Speaker 2: But this particular quote, this particular line from Aaron Rodgers,
- 5:10Speaker 2: I put it into the basket of gridiron kabuki. It's
- 5:15Speaker 2: grid iron KOBOOKI mister Rogers neighborhood. Now he spent nearly
- 5:19Speaker 2: two decades, as we mentioned, almost two decades in Green Bay, Wisconsin,
- 5:23Speaker 2: shoveling snow, paying people to shovel snow for him. And
- 5:26Speaker 2: then he got rudely kicked out, shoved out the door.
- 5:31Speaker 2: And now he's back squaring up against the Green and Gold.
- 5:34Speaker 2: And this is professional wrestling levels. Storyline stuff.
- 5:38Speaker 1: Now.
- 5:38Speaker 2: The only thing that would have been better if it
- 5:40Speaker 2: had been back at lambeau Field.
- 5:43Speaker 1: You can't get everything you want now, Rogers. I know
- 5:46Speaker 1: from years of doing talk radio. In fact, I'm so old.
- 5:50Speaker 2: We used to have Rogers on when he was playing
- 5:51Speaker 2: a col on Saturdays I did a college football.
- 5:56Speaker 1: I don't need you to touch up my work. But
- 5:58Speaker 1: the point is Rogers would come on when he played
- 6:00Speaker 1: at Cal a couple of times. I guess he wasn't
- 6:02Speaker 1: a do shit that point. I don't know. He was
- 6:04Speaker 1: fine whatever, typical meathead athlete, had not much to say.
- 6:08Speaker 1: But we put him on because we had to.
- 6:11Speaker 2: But Rogers is the king of pretending that he's above
- 6:15Speaker 2: it all. Right, he's above it all. No animosity. Now,
- 6:19Speaker 2: what do we know about Rogers? Whether you like him,
- 6:21Speaker 2: there's a lot of very polarizing guy. Some people love
- 6:24Speaker 2: him a lot. There's other people that think he's the
- 6:26Speaker 2: devil incarnate. I like him as a talk show host.
- 6:30Speaker 1: Good for my job.
- 6:31Speaker 2: But what we know about Aaron Rodgers is that he
- 6:36Speaker 2: is the king of pretending that he's above it all.
- 6:39Speaker 2: No animosity, right. The man loves pushing buttons. Push a
- 6:43Speaker 2: button here, push a button there. He loves pushing buttons
- 6:47Speaker 2: more than Patrick Mahomes loves what a burger.
- 6:49Speaker 1: Okay, that's a lot of love.
- 6:51Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers wrote the book on passive aggressive behavior.
- 6:55Speaker 1: He did It's an Idiot's Guide to Passive aggressive Behavior.
- 6:59Speaker 2: By downplaying matchup Rogers is he's stirring the pot and
- 7:05Speaker 2: then he's spitting a giant, thick green loogie right in
- 7:09Speaker 2: the NFL's marketing punch bowl. I mean, it's the NFL's
- 7:14Speaker 2: focused on this. This is gonna be a big fing
- 7:16Speaker 2: deal on the NBC crews. Got it on Sunday night,
- 7:20Speaker 2: and he's out there acting like he's two zen.
- 7:23Speaker 3: Oh.
- 7:23Speaker 2: I don't believe in revenge, but this is the same
- 7:26Speaker 2: guy who has been carrying around grudges like people carry
- 7:32Speaker 2: luggage to the airport, and by downplaying it, he's giving
- 7:36Speaker 2: himself also the old daily double. Now the daily double
- 7:40Speaker 2: is he's effing over the marketing people because the idea is, okay,
- 7:43Speaker 2: we'll get a good quote from Rogers talking about how
- 7:46Speaker 2: he really wants to stick it to the Packers. They'll
- 7:48Speaker 2: put that in the open and they'll toss to Tarrico
- 7:51Speaker 2: and Collinsworth on the Sunday night broadcast. So he downplays it,
- 7:55Speaker 2: which hurts the marketing. He also gives himself the other
- 7:58Speaker 2: part of the daily double. He gives himself the built
- 8:02Speaker 2: in excuse if the Steelers end up getting smoked on
- 8:05Speaker 2: Sunday Night, He'll say, ah, you know, listen, it doesn't matter.
- 8:09Speaker 2: It's just a regular season game. It's just another game.
- 8:11Speaker 2: So it's a total soft landing.
- 8:13Speaker 1: Now.
- 8:13Speaker 2: The only thing I was saying about this when I
- 8:15Speaker 2: was making a long trip into the studio here. The
- 8:18Speaker 2: only thing that Aaron Rodgers could say to lead me
- 8:23Speaker 2: to believe that he does not does not want to
- 8:26Speaker 2: get a pound of cheese revenge from the Green Bay
- 8:30Speaker 2: Packers is that he's a lizard person. Now, if he's
- 8:34Speaker 2: a lizard person, okay, there's no emotion. Lizard people don't
- 8:37Speaker 2: have emotion. I've read books about lizard people. They don't
- 8:39Speaker 2: have emotion. I don't want to go all George Norrey
- 8:41Speaker 2: coast to coast on you, but there's no emotion. It's
- 8:42Speaker 2: not personal. Otherwise it's always personal.
- 8:46Speaker 1: It just is now.
- 8:48Speaker 2: I never played in the NFL, however, I have worked
- 8:51Speaker 2: at I've worked here a long time. But before I
- 8:53Speaker 2: worked here, I bounced around the radio dial as you
- 8:55Speaker 2: used to do back in the day. And whenever I
- 8:57Speaker 2: changed radio jobs, I always want to stick the dagger
- 9:00Speaker 2: right in the heart of the people I used to
- 9:01Speaker 2: work for.
- 9:02Speaker 1: Always.
- 9:03Speaker 2: That's how I'm wired. Most people are wired that way
- 9:05Speaker 2: as well. And you know deep down that Rogers would
- 9:09Speaker 2: love nothing more than to go out there on Sunday
- 9:12Speaker 2: night throw four touchdowns so for two hundred and ninety
- 9:15Speaker 2: yards and then stare a hole through Matt Lafleur.
- 9:21Speaker 1: And the Green Bay Packer coaching staff right there in
- 9:23Speaker 1: the silence.
- 9:24Speaker 2: Now, if you don't believe me, just ask his imaginary wife, Brittany,
- 9:27Speaker 2: because I'm sure that Brittany Rogers, his fake wife, will
- 9:31Speaker 2: tell you all about that. I'm sure she's a lovely lady,
- 9:34Speaker 2: and she's completely real and she just has just somehow in.
- 9:38Speaker 1: The plugged in world been able to hide.
- 9:40Speaker 2: Maybe she lives like the unibomber and in shack in Montana.
- 9:43Speaker 1: All right, turning the page, we now go to Jersey.
- 9:46Speaker 2: What is the rule of show bad football makes good
- 9:48Speaker 2: talk radio? So following the verbal butcher shop that the
- 9:55Speaker 2: Jets owner opened up, put his quarterback in the verbal Butcher's.
- 10:00Speaker 2: The quarterback, Justin Fields responded, responded to the criticism from
- 10:08Speaker 2: Woody Johnson, and what did he say? What did the
- 10:14Speaker 2: man say? Well, I will tell you I guess we
- 10:18Speaker 2: don't have an editing department anymore that puts any sound
- 10:20Speaker 2: in But I will just I'll tell you what he said,
- 10:22Speaker 2: so you don't have to worry about it. If you
- 10:24Speaker 2: said Field said, the money quote was I don't really
- 10:27Speaker 2: have a relationship with Woody Johnson. He did look a
- 10:30Speaker 2: little out of sorts Justin Fields while he was talking
- 10:34Speaker 2: to the media, But the money quote was, I don't
- 10:35Speaker 2: really have a relationship with Woody Johnson. So the question
- 10:39Speaker 2: the Jets quarterback who will most likely be a backup?
- 10:43Speaker 1: Although more on that in a minute.
- 10:45Speaker 2: Justin Field saying that he doesn't really have any kind
- 10:48Speaker 2: of relationship with the Jets owner Woody Johnson, does I
- 10:54Speaker 2: guess what does that signal to you? That'd be the
- 10:56Speaker 2: way we'll frame what does that signal to you? So
- 11:00Speaker 2: I will go first because I'm sitting in front of
- 11:03Speaker 2: a microphone. I'm sitting in front of this, so I'm
- 11:05Speaker 2: gonna talk first. Justin Fields has relationship problems.
- 11:10Speaker 1: He does.
- 11:11Speaker 2: This isn't the Bachelor. It's not, although you wouldn't know
- 11:16Speaker 2: it from following the Jets. It's the NFL. I thought,
- 11:20Speaker 2: you don't need to grab dinner with the owner. You
- 11:24Speaker 2: need to score touchdowns. I have never met the president
- 11:29Speaker 2: of the company that I work for. Fox Sports Radio
- 11:33Speaker 2: is a partnership with iHeart Media. I've never met the
- 11:36Speaker 2: big boss at iHeart. I don't know who that is.
- 11:38Speaker 2: If they walk in the room, I wouldn't know what
- 11:40Speaker 2: they look like.
- 11:41Speaker 1: But I have a job to do, and I do
- 11:42Speaker 1: the job, and I don't worry about that.
- 11:44Speaker 2: And of course I don't usually get ripped by the
- 11:46Speaker 2: person that runs the company because they have no idea
- 11:49Speaker 2: who I am, so they wouldn't rip me. But Fields
- 11:52Speaker 2: doesn't really have a relationship with Woody Johnson. He also
- 11:57Speaker 2: does not have a relationship with the Forward Pass.
- 12:00Speaker 1: That's a bigger problem. Right.
- 12:01Speaker 2: He also has been ghosting. I don't know why he's
- 12:03Speaker 2: doing this. For some reason, he's been ghosting.
- 12:05Speaker 1: The end zone. I don't know. I don't recommend that.
- 12:08Speaker 2: So if the Jets want to change quarterback coaches, and
- 12:11Speaker 2: why not they do that every other.
- 12:12Speaker 1: Year, may we recommend doctor Phil?
- 12:15Speaker 2: And he gave up his daytime talk show a while back,
- 12:18Speaker 2: so why not doctor Phil. Woody Johnson doesn't want to
- 12:21Speaker 2: talk to Justin Fields because watching Justin Field's play professional
- 12:26Speaker 2: football for the owner of the Jets is like it's
- 12:30Speaker 2: like talking to a brick wall. There is no response,
- 12:34Speaker 2: there is no response.
- 12:35Speaker 1: It's just pain. It's just absolute pain.
- 12:38Speaker 2: And the Jets to think that these morons gave a
- 12:41Speaker 2: guy who's a two time loser thirty million dollars guaranteed,
- 12:46Speaker 2: thirty million dollars guaranteed for Justin Fields, who proved he
- 12:49Speaker 2: couldn't play in Chicago and then confirmed he couldn't play
- 12:52Speaker 2: in Pittsburgh, and the Jets said, well, we know you
- 12:54Speaker 2: can't play, so we'll bring in Why not? That is
- 12:57Speaker 2: not a contract. The thirty million dollars is not a contract.
- 13:01Speaker 1: You know what that is?
- 13:02Speaker 2: That is a tax deductible charity donation inside a helmet.
- 13:08Speaker 2: You fill a helmet with money. Okay, here's the donation.
- 13:10Speaker 2: Let me contact my being counter and I'll see what
- 13:13Speaker 2: we can get that as a rite off there on
- 13:14Speaker 2: your Texas.
- 13:15Speaker 1: Justin Fields needs.
- 13:16Speaker 2: To stop worrying about relationships and all that stuff and
- 13:19Speaker 2: just complete some passes and I'll guarantee it you complete
- 13:22Speaker 2: some passes.
- 13:22Speaker 1: I don't think he can do.
- 13:23Speaker 2: But if you complete some passes, all of a sudden,
- 13:26Speaker 2: the owner of the Jets is gonna be like, Okay,
- 13:29Speaker 2: let's go have lunch. I'll take you out on a
- 13:32Speaker 2: helicopter out to the Hamptons. And so it's the NFL
- 13:35Speaker 2: is not couple's therapy. We don't need to worry about that.
- 13:38Speaker 2: It's not couple's therapy. All right now, last word, we
- 13:41Speaker 2: stay with the Jets. We do the shuffle. Are you
- 13:44Speaker 2: ready to do the shuffle?
- 13:45Speaker 1: We got to do the shuffle. That'd be the quarterback
- 13:47Speaker 1: shuffle question. The coach. I say that loosely because he
- 13:53Speaker 1: doesn't seem to know what he's doing.
- 13:54Speaker 2: Aaron Glenn made some comments. He was asked about the
- 13:58Speaker 2: quarterback situation. Who is going to start a quarterback? And
- 14:03Speaker 2: did he say Justin Fields.
- 14:04Speaker 1: Did he say Tyrod Taylor or none of the evolved.
- 14:09Speaker 1: Let's go to the audio tape. She's your quarterback. We
- 14:12Speaker 1: will have a quarterback on Sunday. I will tell you
- 14:15Speaker 1: that announced.
- 14:17Speaker 2: Sorry, I wouldn't want to give them a competitive advantage
- 14:19Speaker 2: when I have that opportunity, but we would have a quarterback.
- 14:22Speaker 1: Did you Your list is gone? So yeah, day, yes, yes,
- 14:28Speaker 1: what is he dealing with? He's dealing a need. That's
- 14:31Speaker 1: something he had before. So just you know who you're
- 14:35Speaker 1: starting quarterback is going to be. You're just not announcing it.
- 14:37Speaker 1: So it is life this week as a competition where
- 14:39Speaker 1: you're going to have I know, to star on quarters
- 14:41Speaker 1: could be okay, So we we like to let you
- 14:46Speaker 1: know they will have a quarterback. So that's good. They're
- 14:48Speaker 1: going to have a quarterback, all right. So Eric Glen,
- 14:49Speaker 1: you just heard it right there.
- 14:50Speaker 2: He will not name a quarterback for the Jets between
- 14:54Speaker 2: Justin Fields and Tyrod Taylor because in his own words there,
- 14:56Speaker 2: he doesn't want to give the Bengals a competitive advantage.
- 15:02Speaker 1: So how does that one taste? How does that taste?
- 15:04Speaker 1: So it tastes to.
- 15:05Speaker 2: Me it's a little moldy and a little mil dewey,
- 15:09Speaker 2: little moldy, little mil dewey. That's what it tastes like here.
- 15:12Speaker 2: So Aaron Glenn the worst coach in football. Not my opinion,
- 15:16Speaker 2: it's a fact. He's the only win this's coach.
- 15:17Speaker 1: In the NFL.
- 15:18Speaker 2: Aaron Glenn thinks that he's playing with dungeons and dragons
- 15:21Speaker 2: or something like that with the Bengals, and it's.
- 15:25Speaker 1: Like top secret. He's got someone I'm not sure who.
- 15:27Speaker 2: The person is, but they walk behind him and they've
- 15:30Speaker 2: got a briefcase and in the briefcase are the nuclear codes.
- 15:34Speaker 1: And so you can't announce what's going.
- 15:36Speaker 2: On because you've got the nuclear codes and you want
- 15:38Speaker 2: to give those away and you want to know you
- 15:39Speaker 2: have the nuclear codes. And so picking between Justin Fields
- 15:44Speaker 2: and Tyrod Taylor, what kind of choice is that?
- 15:47Speaker 1: Do you know what kind of choice that is?
- 15:48Speaker 2: That is like going to the Haunted Cafe for Halloween
- 15:52Speaker 2: dinner and you're having a witches dinner and you're choosing
- 15:55Speaker 2: between cockroaches or rats.
- 15:59Speaker 1: Do I want want the vermin or do I want
- 16:02Speaker 1: the cockerroach? What do I want to have? And good
- 16:05Speaker 1: luck either way?
- 16:06Speaker 2: You are stuck with something nasty Capital and nast Ate.
- 16:12Speaker 1: So the Jets are zero and seven.
- 16:14Speaker 2: Is it true that Cincinnati could hand over could hand
- 16:21Speaker 2: over a three ring binder with their entire playbook, could
- 16:26Speaker 2: send a text message with all the audibles they will
- 16:30Speaker 2: use in the game this weekend, and they could send
- 16:34Speaker 2: them a laminated sheet, the same sheet that Joe Flacco
- 16:39Speaker 2: will have on his wristband this weekend. And the Jets
- 16:44Speaker 2: would still f it up. They'd still trip over their
- 16:47Speaker 2: shoelaces at the thirty five yard line. This is classic
- 16:51Speaker 2: bad team fear, and it's why I continue to preach
- 16:54Speaker 2: from the bully pulpit.
- 16:55Speaker 1: Bad teams make good talk radio.
- 16:58Speaker 2: And when you don't have a real advantage, like Aaron Glenn,
- 17:01Speaker 2: you are in make believe.
- 17:03Speaker 1: You're pretending.
- 17:04Speaker 2: You're pretending every man, woman and child knows that Tyrod
- 17:07Speaker 2: Taylor's going to start at quarterback this weekend.
- 17:10Speaker 1: It's just that Aaron Glenn doesn't want to deal with
- 17:12Speaker 1: the fallout on that. Now. I would love for.
- 17:15Speaker 2: Justin Field's love for him to start on Sunday because
- 17:20Speaker 2: he's going to get destroyed. That'll make for another good
- 17:23Speaker 2: monologue on Sunday night into Monday.
- 17:26Speaker 1: It is the Ben Mahlor Show.

- 20:17Speaker 2: no revenge game with the Green Bay Packers and all

- 20:37Speaker 2: with the Jets owner and Aaron Glenn, what a mench
- 20:42Speaker 2: Aaron Glenn is to have the hutzpah to say, oh yeah,
- 20:47Speaker 2: we don't want to give the Bengals a competitive advantage.
- 20:50Speaker 2: You got like two suck bag quarterbacks, but we do
- 20:53Speaker 2: not want to give any kind of a competitive event.
- 20:55Speaker 2: Do not want to do it, don't want to do.
- 20:57Speaker 1: It at all.
- 20:58Speaker 2: Just Josh right, since says this is not your average
- 21:04Speaker 2: cheese revenge game here feels more like of a Swiss
- 21:08Speaker 2: type of variety got a lot of holes in it,
- 21:11Speaker 2: says just Josh about Aaron Rodgers going against his old team,
- 21:14Speaker 2: King Rory, who's in Wisconsin.
- 21:16Speaker 1: I like the holes joke.
- 21:18Speaker 2: Yeah, lame jokes are on on Friday tomorrow. King Roy says.
- 21:22Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers might say, it's not a revenge game, but
- 21:26Speaker 2: if the Steelers win, you know, Rogers will throw a
- 21:28Speaker 2: dig or two at the Packers. Fun fact, Green Bay
- 21:32Speaker 2: has not won in Pittsburgh since nineteen seventy.
- 21:37Speaker 1: Wow.
- 21:39Speaker 2: See, those kind of stats are cool, except they don't
- 21:41Speaker 2: play each other every year. They don't play each other
- 21:43Speaker 2: hardly at all, like every four years, maybe maybe.
- 21:47Speaker 1: Once every four years. Get to uh, they said they
- 21:52Speaker 1: would be times. I bet you less than that.
- 21:56Speaker 2: I bet you the Packers have played in Pittsburgh without
- 21:59Speaker 2: looking since nineteen seventy I'll bet you it's like seven
- 22:04Speaker 2: or eight times.
- 22:05Speaker 1: Maybe. Wow, maybe it's.
- 22:07Speaker 2: You know, because they don't they're not in the same conference,
- 22:09Speaker 2: they don't play each other that often.
- 22:12Speaker 1: There's a rotation.
- 22:12Speaker 2: You're supposed to play everyone every four years, but then
- 22:15Speaker 2: you don't play them all in your own stadium. You
- 22:17Speaker 2: play on the road some of the time as well.
- 22:20Speaker 2: And what else we have late night drug Tester says, wait,

- 27:14Speaker 2: something like that?
- 27:15Speaker 7: Yeah, my dad, My dad was a diehard Niners fan.
- 27:18Speaker 7: We always watched. So that's who I grew up loving.
- 27:22Speaker 2: I got you, I understand. Yeah, generational thing. Yeah, the
- 27:25Speaker 2: Niners always give the Rams problem. So uh but they've
- 27:29Speaker 2: had I don't know how they they're winning. They beat
- 27:30Speaker 2: Atlanta without Bosa's out for the year and Fred Warner, like,
- 27:34Speaker 2: those are the only two guys you know of on defense.

- 39:01Speaker 4: Yeah, this is one Big Ben gets grilled.
- 39:06Speaker 3: Go below NFL Executive vice president Troy Vincent said on
- 39:10Speaker 3: Saturday that with on side kicks having less than five
- 39:12Speaker 3: percent recovery rate and maybe time to reconsider alternatives to
- 39:16Speaker 3: the onside kick, Ben, do you think the NFL needs
- 39:18Speaker 3: an alternative?
- 39:19Speaker 1: Yes? Yes, you want to encourage comebacks.
- 39:21Speaker 2: You want to have an audience keep watching a game,
- 39:24Speaker 2: and you know as a fan, when a team falls
- 39:27Speaker 2: behind and they.
- 39:27Speaker 1: Have to get an on side kick or two on sidekicks.
- 39:30Speaker 2: There's no mathematical way that's going to work. So you
- 39:33Speaker 2: need to come up with somebody else. Now, they're so
- 39:34Speaker 2: afraid of people getting hurt. I get it, because they
- 39:37Speaker 2: don't get sued. So how about like a fourth and
- 39:40Speaker 2: twenty five or something like that one play to try
- 39:43Speaker 2: to get a first Now, something along those lines, because
- 39:45Speaker 2: what the kickoff?
- 39:46Speaker 1: Things that waste the time.
- 39:47Speaker 3: Next, DeMarcus Cousins had a hot take ahead of the
- 39:49Speaker 3: NBA's opening Nike He said that he believes Kevin Durant
- 39:52Speaker 3: can win the MVP at thirty seven years old because
- 39:54Speaker 3: the Rockets will win enough game to put him in
- 39:56Speaker 3: the conversation. Ben thumbs up or thumbs down.
- 39:59Speaker 2: That listen, DeMarcus, you're better at basketball than me. But
- 40:02Speaker 2: your hot takes are terrible. This is like one of
- 40:04Speaker 2: the worst takes I've ever There's no chance Kevin Durant's
- 40:07Speaker 2: gonna win an MVP award. He's not even the best
- 40:09Speaker 2: player on the Rockets, So how's the math on that
- 40:12Speaker 2: going to work? It's ridiculous. We're in the age of
- 40:16Speaker 2: the unexpected MVP. Although your guy Luca Coop, you.
- 40:18Speaker 1: Know he's gonna put up monster numbers, so you know
- 40:21Speaker 1: I would say he's I'd bet on him before he
- 40:23Speaker 1: was next.
- 40:24Speaker 3: Speaking of hot takes, our very own colleague, Colin Cowhard,
- 40:27Speaker 3: made headlines with a take of his own.
- 40:28Speaker 1: This week.
- 40:29Speaker 3: He predicted the Orlando Magic will make it to the
- 40:31Speaker 3: NBA Finals. Ben, what do you think the ceiling is
- 40:33Speaker 3: for the Magic?
- 40:35Speaker 1: They'll go far in.
- 40:36Speaker 2: The playoffs, but they're not going to the NBA Finals
- 40:39Speaker 2: unless unless I'm missing something here, they'll they can get
- 40:42Speaker 2: to the semi finals.
- 40:44Speaker 1: How do we do, Coope?
- 40:45Speaker 4: How'd we do?
- 40:45Speaker 1: How'd we do we? I walk past, I past, I pass.
- 40:49Speaker 1: I like their uniforms, good uniforms, though for their Magic
