- 0:36Speaker 1: Andy Reid. This is an Andy Reid impersonator who's from
- 0:39Speaker 1: Kansas City. He's well known. He's been in commercials with
- 0:43Speaker 1: Andy Reid, and he is he looks exactly like I know.
- 0:47Speaker 1: It's an audio only thing. I'll put some photos on
- 0:49Speaker 1: social media. But the guy's a fan of our show.
- 0:52Speaker 1: He was a listener of the Ben Malers show back
- 0:54Speaker 1: in the day, so I thought it'd be cool to
- 0:55Speaker 1: have him on, and I met him met him a
- 0:57Speaker 1: couple of times over the last few years at different events.

- 1:28Speaker 1: now here an hour. Number one, it's all about the
- 1:31Speaker 1: Hall of Fame. How do you classify Ely Manning not
- 1:36Speaker 1: not getting into the Hall of Fame on the first ballot?
- 1:39Speaker 1: A lot of outrage Internet outrage over that. Also where
- 1:42Speaker 1: you're at on former Herolina linebacker Luke Keikley, He wasn't
- 1:48Speaker 1: voted in the Canton on the first ballot. And how
- 1:51Speaker 1: would you describe in general the new Hall of Fame class?
- 1:56Speaker 1: There are four members that were voted in on Thursday
- 2:00Speaker 1: in the Hall of Fame Class of twenty twenty five.
- 2:01Speaker 1: We'll talk about all that and more right now here.
- 2:04Speaker 1: It is our number one. Well, you're invited and you're
- 2:11Speaker 1: not invited. Invited, not invited? Well, come in the beginning
- 2:19Speaker 1: of another night of the Benmahlor Show.

- 3:18Speaker 1: Here we are together again. All is well in your
- 3:22Speaker 1: world and we are reunited through the magic of overnight
- 3:26Speaker 1: talk radio. How lucky are we to be hanging out together?
- 3:30Speaker 1: And our lead story here to begin the Overnight Talk
- 3:34Speaker 1: Festivas from the Hall of Fame Class of twenty twenty five.
- 3:38Speaker 1: Now big night in New Orleans. A lot of boozing,
- 3:43Speaker 1: Not just the media elites boozing. There's an NFL big
- 3:47Speaker 1: shots that came in there. As the NFL tries to
- 3:50Speaker 1: cross over. They've been doing this for years. They want
- 3:52Speaker 1: to be seen as entertainment and glitz and glamour, and
- 3:55Speaker 1: when it's just a bunch of meathead football players giving
- 3:58Speaker 1: awards to other meathead football players. But for our purposes,
- 4:01Speaker 1: to begin the night, we'll push back, push back the
- 4:03Speaker 1: MVP Award, which did go to Josh Allen over Lamar Jackson.
- 4:07Speaker 1: So crank up the outrage machine. I did not share
- 4:10Speaker 1: the outrage with that. But if you did not pay attention,
- 4:13Speaker 1: the big one is the living cemetery of the NFL.
- 4:17Speaker 1: It's in Canton, Ohio. It's not technically the NFL, it's
- 4:20Speaker 1: the Pro Football Hall of Fame. But if you do
- 4:23Speaker 1: not see the class of twenty twenty five, that would
- 4:26Speaker 1: be tight end Antonio Gates, cornerback Eric Allen, defensive end
- 4:32Speaker 1: Jared Allen, so a lot of Allen's wide receiver Sterling Sharp.
- 4:37Speaker 1: He joins his brother. They're the newest members of the
- 4:40Speaker 1: Pro Football Hall of Fame and they will be inducted
- 4:44Speaker 1: in a Gallas ceremony in early August, where everyone will
- 4:49Speaker 1: be focused on Canton, Ohio as they will be enshrined
- 4:52Speaker 1: in that mausoleum. Now, the class was chosen in a
- 4:57Speaker 1: smoke filled room, well, actually it was a virtual meeting
- 5:01Speaker 1: used to be a smoke filled room, but now everything's
- 5:04Speaker 1: on zoom. So the Board of Selectors, a group of
- 5:08Speaker 1: fifty voters, randomly decided who's in and who's out, who's
- 5:13Speaker 1: in and who's out. So it's the smallest class in
- 5:17Speaker 1: twenty years. You're gonna go back to twenty oh five.
- 5:20Speaker 1: I was barely alive then, and that was also a
- 5:22Speaker 1: four member class for the Hall of Fame. Now, the
- 5:24Speaker 1: better story is in the losing the losing locker room,
- 5:30Speaker 1: or in this case, the losing campaign for the Hall
- 5:34Speaker 1: of Fame. Now I mentioned moving man Matt and he
- 5:36Speaker 1: has been one of the great advocates him and guys
- 5:39Speaker 1: like Spacoli and these other losers for Eli Manning to
- 5:43Speaker 1: get into the Hall of Fame. Well that's the story.
- 5:45Speaker 1: Don't bear the lead by man. Don't bear the lead.
- 5:48Speaker 1: Better story in the losing locker room. So you've got
- 5:50Speaker 1: former Colts and Patriots kicker Adam Venteri did not make it,
- 5:55Speaker 1: Panthers linebacker Luke Keigley, and Giants quarter back Elijah Manning,
- 6:02Speaker 1: all of them in their first year of eligibility. None
- 6:05Speaker 1: of them were selected. The big one is the quarterback
- 6:10Speaker 1: and the headlines all over the world wide web, shocking,
- 6:17Speaker 1: outrageous snub Eli blocked from Canton, Ohio at the NFL Honors,
- 6:25Speaker 1: and that made the rounds bouncing around the pinball machine.
- 6:29Speaker 1: So let us discuss the question, how do you classify
- 6:33Speaker 1: Eli Manning not getting in to the Hall of Fame
- 6:39Speaker 1: on his first ballot? So I have David Copperfield, I've
- 6:42Speaker 1: got Hans Solo and Wendy's three things that have never
- 6:47Speaker 1: ever been combined together. Will ring the bell and we'll
- 6:52Speaker 1: make some magic here. So my first thought, how do
- 6:54Speaker 1: you classify Eli Manning not getting into the Hall of
- 6:57Speaker 1: Fame on the first ballot? I classify it as justified. Right, Bravo,
- 7:04Speaker 1: bravo to the voters. I don't know who you are,
- 7:07Speaker 1: but I didn't think that the people that voted for
- 7:11Speaker 1: the Pro Football Hall of Fame had the intestinal fortitude,
- 7:14Speaker 1: had the manhood. I don't know. I haven't gonna say it.
- 7:18Speaker 1: They had hair in their chest to do this. But
- 7:20Speaker 1: Eli Manning being a first ballot Hall of Famer would
- 7:24Speaker 1: have been criminal. He is not that. I wouldn't even
- 7:28Speaker 1: put him in the Hall of Fame, and I think
- 7:29Speaker 1: eventually he's gonna get in the Hall of Fame. But
- 7:31Speaker 1: he doesn't deserve to be in the Hall of Fame.
- 7:34Speaker 1: And here's why he is m d mid. He's a
- 7:39Speaker 1: mid player. He's David Copperfield. He's used smoking mirrors trickeration
- 7:45Speaker 1: to convince dumb people that he's better than he is.
- 7:48Speaker 1: He's just an average ballplayer that low information fans get
- 7:52Speaker 1: all excited about because a couple of Fluke playoff runs.
- 7:55Speaker 1: But he never won a playoff game. Outside of those
- 7:58Speaker 1: two Fluke runs in the playoffs. He was not at
- 8:03Speaker 1: any point, at any moment, an elite ballplayer. Now my evidence,
- 8:09Speaker 1: Elijah in his NFL career was a five hundred player,
- 8:15Speaker 1: one hundred and seventeen wins, one hundred and seventeen losses.
- 8:18Speaker 1: He never won an MVP Award, never really came close
- 8:21Speaker 1: to that. He never finished as the league leader in
- 8:23Speaker 1: passing yards. He was never considered one of the top
- 8:26Speaker 1: two or three quarterbacks in the NFL at any point.
- 8:29Speaker 1: He was never named an All Pro. And that's a
- 8:32Speaker 1: big one. That is, how can you be a Hall
- 8:34Speaker 1: of Famer if not one time were you considered an
- 8:38Speaker 1: All Pro? Sixteen years, not once did anyone say this
- 8:43Speaker 1: guy's an All Pro none and the Super Bowl wins.
- 8:48Speaker 1: While they're nice and all that, it's a team award,
- 8:51Speaker 1: it's not an individual award. And in terms of judging
- 8:55Speaker 1: Eli Manning on his own resume, not your imagination, your perception,
- 9:01Speaker 1: your fairy tale, but the actual raw numbers if you
- 9:06Speaker 1: go and look at him and also watching him play.
- 9:08Speaker 1: But that's a different conversation. But the math isn't mathing
- 9:12Speaker 1: when you look at the Pro Football Reference page of
- 9:14Speaker 1: Eli Manning, Eli led the NFL in only one category
- 9:20Speaker 1: over sixteen years in the league. Only one. Now, I'll
- 9:24Speaker 1: give him credit. He did lead the league three times
- 9:27Speaker 1: in one category. That category was that's right, interceptions, So
- 9:32Speaker 1: he was elite at throwing interceptions. So good job by him.
- 9:36Speaker 1: Other than that, bupkis and the comp on Eli Manning
- 9:41Speaker 1: is Donovan McNabb. Would you put Donovan McNabb on the
- 9:45Speaker 1: Hall of It? Would you put Carson Palmer in the
- 9:47Speaker 1: Hall of Fame? That's the type of ballplayer that Eli
- 9:50Speaker 1: Manning is. Again, I think eventually he'll get in, but
- 9:53Speaker 1: it's nice that he didn't get in right away. He
- 9:55Speaker 1: won't likely get in next year and he should have
- 9:59Speaker 1: to wait a long time. I would never put him in,
- 10:02Speaker 1: but I know how this works, I know the politics
- 10:05Speaker 1: of this, and eventually he'll end up in the Hall
- 10:08Speaker 1: of Fame. Now, page two, So where are you at
- 10:12Speaker 1: on former Carolina linebacker Luke Keighley not getting voted in
- 10:17Speaker 1: as well in the can So to me, this was
- 10:20Speaker 1: the snub in the room. I can't get all worked
- 10:23Speaker 1: up about Adam Vinti because he's a kicker and kickers
- 10:26Speaker 1: aren't real football players. But Luke Keighley I can get
- 10:29Speaker 1: worked up for. Since Keighley did not play in the
- 10:33Speaker 1: New York New Jersey tri state area there with Connecticut,
- 10:37Speaker 1: he doesn't have the last name Manning the royalty of
- 10:41Speaker 1: the NFL, this part is mostly being ignored. And while
- 10:46Speaker 1: Eli Manning clearly does not belong in the Hall of
- 10:49Speaker 1: Fame based on his resume, Luke Keighley checks just about
- 10:53Speaker 1: every box, just about every box. And this is a
- 10:56Speaker 1: Han solo situation saying, Luke, may the Force be with you,
- 11:02Speaker 1: and the force is with Luke Keighley, And I'm gonna
- 11:06Speaker 1: make my elevator pitch as to why Luke Keighley was
- 11:10Speaker 1: a five time All Pro, a five time All Pro
- 11:15Speaker 1: in his career. Remember, Eli Manning was not he was
- 11:19Speaker 1: on the All Decade team Luke Keighley for the twenty tens.
- 11:22Speaker 1: Eli Manning never made an All Decade team. He was
- 11:25Speaker 1: the Rookie Defensive Player of the Year and then Defensive
- 11:30Speaker 1: Player the Year. The only red flag, the only bumpety
- 11:34Speaker 1: bump for Luke Keikley is that he did not have longevity.
- 11:41Speaker 1: But football is not a sport designed for longevity. He
- 11:44Speaker 1: played eight seasons, which seems like a lot longer than
- 11:47Speaker 1: most NFL careers. However, and you merely judge him on
- 11:51Speaker 1: those eight years. He ended up in the upper crust
- 11:56Speaker 1: All Pro statics, not Pro Bowl where they play game
- 11:59Speaker 1: shows and water balloon toss All Pro, All Pro. Sixty
- 12:05Speaker 1: two percent of his career he was in the Krem
- 12:09Speaker 1: de la Krem of the NFL. So, Luke Keighley, that
- 12:12Speaker 1: was a bad job by the voters. I agree with
- 12:15Speaker 1: the Manning thing. I do not agree with Luke Keighley.
- 12:18Speaker 1: But you can't get too worked up because it's a
- 12:19Speaker 1: Carolina Panther player and there's not a lot of people
- 12:22Speaker 1: that get all worked out and more on in North
- 12:23Speaker 1: Carolina and the Carolinas and all that but yeah, kind
- 12:26Speaker 1: of calm and all. All right, last word, So, how
- 12:30Speaker 1: would you describe the new members, the brand new members
- 12:35Speaker 1: of the Hall of Fame class of twenty twenty five.
- 12:39Speaker 1: So I would describe them as good, not great, good,
- 12:45Speaker 1: not great. In fact, I would go back to an
- 12:48Speaker 1: old forty some year old marketing campaign from Windy's Where's
- 12:55Speaker 1: the Beef? Where's the beef? Yeah, king the wow factor.
- 13:01Speaker 1: None of these guys are bad. They're not bad. Eric
- 13:04Speaker 1: Allen played fourteen seasons, so he had longevity. He made
- 13:08Speaker 1: one All Pro team? Why is he now a Hall
- 13:10Speaker 1: of Famer? Win a Hall of Famer? The last couple
- 13:12Speaker 1: of years, Antonio Gates made three All Pro teams and
- 13:17Speaker 1: was a good player, one of the great tight ends
- 13:20Speaker 1: of his ear for the San Diego charge the old
- 13:22Speaker 1: San Diego Chargers. He was on an All Decade team,
- 13:25Speaker 1: which is nice. And I'm trying to remember. Maybe I'm
- 13:30Speaker 1: just my memory is going, but I can't remember a
- 13:32Speaker 1: signature moment of Antonio Gates' career, can you? I can't.
- 13:38Speaker 1: What was his defining moment that you said, well, that's
- 13:41Speaker 1: a Hall of Fame moment? What was it? Jared Allen?
- 13:45Speaker 1: He had a good player with the Vikings and the
- 13:47Speaker 1: Chiefs and was a four time All Pro and mostly
- 13:50Speaker 1: mid middling teams that he played on, but individually he
- 13:54Speaker 1: was very effective. So he's in good but not great
- 13:59Speaker 1: and Sterling Sharks who made three All Pro teams if
- 14:03Speaker 1: you're old enough to remember him with the Green Bay
- 14:05Speaker 1: Packers and got hurt and that was it and he
- 14:07Speaker 1: played I think it was seven years and he got
- 14:09Speaker 1: in in the Hall of Fame. And you're like, okay, fine,
- 14:13Speaker 1: you know it doesn't get you all Tingley doesn't get
- 14:15Speaker 1: you all excited. But those guys are in the Hall
- 14:17Speaker 1: of Fame. Okay, that's fine, they're in. But I'm not
- 14:20Speaker 1: gonna go raw rah. I mean, you know, that's just
- 14:23Speaker 1: the way it is. So anyway, it is the Ben
- 14:27Speaker 1: Mallor Show. We are here all night, every night during
- 14:31Speaker 1: the week and then also on the weekends. You can
- 14:35Speaker 1: find me on the Fifth Hour podcast. And I am

- 14:58Speaker 1: this guy known as almost Amy read if you were out,
- 15:02Speaker 1: if you're one of our listeners in Kansas City, you

- 15:22Speaker 1: of my my big muckety muck radio friends, I said,
- 15:24Speaker 1: I'm gonna have the Andy Reid impersonator guy on And
- 15:29Speaker 1: he said, Ben, you do a podcast you're having in

- 15:35Speaker 1: that he looks like Andy Reid, and you're having him

- 16:28Speaker 3: Be sure to catch live editions of the Ben Mallor
- 16:31Speaker 3: Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific on
- 16:35Speaker 3: Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.
- 16:38Speaker 1: Heys I, Bill Miller. You're listening to the Ben Mallor Show,
- 16:42Speaker 1: heard and all night every night on this Fox Sports
- 16:48Speaker 1: Radio station and on the weekends the Fifth Hour podcast. Also,
- 16:52Speaker 1: Ben wants me to promote his cheesy TV show, Benny
- 16:55Speaker 1: Versus the Penny, with the big Super Bowl show coming up,
- 16:58Speaker 1: which is already starting to air on on Peacock around
- 17:02Speaker 1: the country. But this is the part where I tell
- 17:05Speaker 1: you you can interact with the live show. Say hello
- 17:08Speaker 1: to Ben at Ben Mallor. It's at Ben mallor you
- 17:12Speaker 1: can send Ben a message. Also, Lorraine uh who had
- 17:18Speaker 1: a near death experience, you can say hello to her
- 17:21Speaker 1: at FSR Tech, Queen and Koople Loop a Bronco fan,
- 17:26Speaker 1: the cast of characters, and now man who loves the
- 17:30Speaker 1: number sixteen? Well, actually, Bill, I do, I now love
- 17:35Speaker 1: the number sixteen. I did want to mention this if
- 17:37Speaker 1: you don't follow the show on social media. Bill's referencing
- 17:41Speaker 1: the fact that a radio trade website, which is probably
- 17:46Speaker 1: not the most interesting thing for you to read if
- 17:48Speaker 1: you're not in radio, but one of the websites that
- 17:51Speaker 1: tracks the radio industry, and they come out every year
- 17:54Speaker 1: with a list, which I know Terry in England loves
- 17:56Speaker 1: when you do a list. He loves the list. But
- 18:00Speaker 1: they vote on all the different radio shows on what's
- 18:03Speaker 1: good and what's bad and what sucks and all that,
- 18:05Speaker 1: and I normally don't pay attention to it. I saw
- 18:09Speaker 1: this and some of you send it to me, so
- 18:14Speaker 1: I thought, well, that's kind of cool. So they vote
- 18:17Speaker 1: on the top twenty. They do by local radio, like
- 18:20Speaker 1: local big market media market. They do national radio, which
- 18:23Speaker 1: is what we're part of doing national radio, and there's
- 18:25Speaker 1: a lot of different radio shows, and many of them suck.
- 18:28Speaker 1: But fortunately, I guess we're not technically one of those
- 18:32Speaker 1: that sucked because they did the Top twenty and we
- 18:34Speaker 1: were number sixteen, which is cool. So it's a testimonial
- 18:38Speaker 1: to you listening to Lorena coop our thanks of course
- 18:41Speaker 1: to Ady who was a big part of the show
- 18:43Speaker 1: last year. And yeah, so we were number sixteen. And
- 18:47Speaker 1: the cool thing is for me knowing how radio works,
- 18:50Speaker 1: and there's two different worlds in radio. There's six am
- 18:53Speaker 1: to six pm, which gets to go to the super
- 18:55Speaker 1: Bowl and gets all the perks and all that cool stuff,
- 18:58Speaker 1: and then there's overnight late night radio which is six
- 19:01Speaker 1: pm to six am. Two totally different worlds. Right, It's
- 19:04Speaker 1: like the haves and the have nots. And so we
- 19:06Speaker 1: were the highest ranked have not show. Every other show
- 19:09Speaker 1: ahead of us was a daytime show. So I was
- 19:11Speaker 1: very proud of that that we're like the top in
- 19:13Speaker 1: the have not category. We'd like the top of the
- 19:16Speaker 1: half nine. And several people have pointed out that we
- 19:18Speaker 1: need now to get a number sixteen drop. I don't
- 19:21Speaker 1: know how we can get a number sixteen drop, but
- 19:23Speaker 1: we should promote that we're number sixteen and we've made
- 19:26Speaker 1: the Sweet sixteen.
- 19:27Speaker 2: That is so cool.
- 19:28Speaker 1: It was pretty neat, So it was cool. So you
- 19:30Speaker 1: know who knows one And it was like a panel

- 20:08Speaker 1: Eli Manning ever does get in, it should be as
- 20:11Speaker 1: a San Diego Charger. He threw two hundred and forty
- 20:13Speaker 1: four fewer interceptions when he was playing for the Chargers.
- 20:17Speaker 1: Ferg Dog says, Hey, Ben Well, most of Orange County
- 20:20Speaker 1: is enjoying a little rain right now. Fullerton getting pounded
- 20:24Speaker 1: in the eye of the hurricane. I am hunkered down,
- 20:27Speaker 1: hunkered down. Oh yeah, Loraina, you were a little late today,
- 20:33Speaker 1: but you have a good excuse, right. There was a
- 20:34Speaker 1: lot of a lot of weather in the LA area.
- 20:37Speaker 1: We have extremes here. We go from the whole city
- 20:40Speaker 1: burning down to flood conditions the matter of a couple
- 20:43Speaker 1: of weeks.
- 20:44Speaker 4: Win those big signs on the freeway that usually tell
- 20:46Speaker 4: you not to drink like and drive, they say severe weather,
- 20:50Speaker 4: drive with caution.
- 20:51Speaker 1: Yeah, usually they just say that it's nonsense. But there
- 20:55Speaker 1: were some highways flooded in the in the LA area.
- 20:59Speaker 1: And I know the the one oh one in Hollywood
- 21:03Speaker 1: is the worst, but to me, it's the worst I've
- 21:06Speaker 1: I've almost died there several times over the years. Driving
- 21:09Speaker 1: in bad weather. It is a freaking nightmare.
- 21:12Speaker 4: I love near death stories. They had these big old
- 21:15Speaker 4: trucks out on the freeway that were like pumping the
- 21:17Speaker 4: water up into them.
- 21:20Speaker 1: Oh really, so they were trying to get rid of the.
- 21:22Speaker 4: Yeah, that's why I was stopped for so long. Like
- 21:24Speaker 4: they were literally like trying to get the water out
- 21:28Speaker 4: of the road.
- 21:29Speaker 1: Oh you know, that's well, they need that because the
- 21:31Speaker 1: cars have to go through there. Yeah, I understand, Jonathan
- 21:34Speaker 1: writes in He's upset with my Mallard monologue. He says,
- 21:37Speaker 1: you're just going to ignore the fact that Antonio Gates
- 21:40Speaker 1: went from undrafted free agent basketball player to top fifteen
- 21:44Speaker 1: touchdown score in NFL history because he didn't have a
- 21:47Speaker 1: notable moment. He says the moment was fifteen years, a
- 21:50Speaker 1: one thousand receptions, blah blah blah blah. I'm my opinion, Jonathan,
- 21:54Speaker 1: I don't recall a moment. I said that guy's a
- 21:58Speaker 1: Hall of Famer. He was good. This guy's clearly you know,
- 22:02Speaker 1: no NonStop express train to the Hall of Fame. Viva
- 22:06Speaker 1: los Vicki writes and says Buenos Noche's been. He says,
- 22:10Speaker 1: I beg to differ Eli no Hall of Fame vote
- 22:13Speaker 1: because of two flukes super Bowl wins. The definition of
- 22:16Speaker 1: a fluke is defined as a chance occurrence. One super
- 22:18Speaker 1: Bowl ring is a fluke, two is something else, grasshopper. Yeah, well,
- 22:22Speaker 1: how many other playoff wins did he have other than that?
- 22:24Speaker 1: I'll give you the answer, zero, as many as I
- 22:27Speaker 1: did and you did zero zippo. A good job by
- 22:31Speaker 1: the Hall of Fame voters. Good job by the Hall
- 22:33Speaker 1: of Fame voters there again. So that's just that's the
- 22:38Speaker 1: way it is. That's it. Let's see here late night
- 22:42Speaker 1: drug tester said quiet before the super Bowl top of
- 22:44Speaker 1: the hour trending report, A couple of minutes of silence
- 22:47Speaker 1: is good to help reset your mind and body. That's
- 22:50Speaker 1: why we did. That was our tribute to Eddie. Anytime
- 22:52Speaker 1: the update doesn't play, it's our tribute to Eddie. And
- 22:54Speaker 1: so that's what we did there at the top of
- 22:56Speaker 1: the hour.
- 22:56Speaker 4: Or it's your sign that Loraina is not in the building, or.
- 22:59Speaker 1: Lorena is stuck in traffic and not here, and either
- 23:02Speaker 1: one of those. Slim Tim a cheese head writes and
- 23:04Speaker 1: says it's been a crummy day, but the malor militia
- 23:07Speaker 1: will surely bring some sunshine. Well, that's pressure. We got
- 23:11Speaker 1: to cheer up, Slim Tim. We got to cheer him up.

- 24:03Speaker 1: Who's in so caow Ricky in Van Eyes? Hello, Ricky,
- 24:08Speaker 1: Welcome in the valley right down the street. What's going on? Ricky?
- 24:11Speaker 5: Hey?
- 24:12Speaker 1: Ben? How are you? Ricky? If I was any better,
- 24:15Speaker 1: I'd be sleeping. But I'm talking talk talk talk talk
- 24:18Speaker 1: talk talky. Okay, good evening.
- 24:21Speaker 6: And I heard you talking about the number sixteen.
- 24:25Speaker 5: Very interesting.
- 24:26Speaker 6: When I used to play softball, I used to wear
- 24:28Speaker 6: the number sixteen.
- 24:30Speaker 1: Why did why did you wear number sixteen? Was that?
- 24:33Speaker 1: Was there another player that inspired you.
- 24:35Speaker 6: No, no, no, no, I'm going to give you three names, Monday, La,
- 24:40Speaker 6: Duca and Easier.
- 24:44Speaker 1: Okay, I got you, all right, Laduka remember that number sixteen?
- 24:47Speaker 6: Yeah, they all played, They all played number sixteen. They
- 24:49Speaker 6: were all good players. So much anyhow, I want to
- 24:51Speaker 6: talk about the Lakers.
- 24:53Speaker 1: Oh of course, So I just did an NFL monologue
- 24:56Speaker 1: and you want to you want to bogart the show
- 24:59Speaker 1: with Baker prop again? Is that correct?
- 25:02Speaker 6: That is correct?
- 25:04Speaker 1: I want to ask, first of all, yes, what do
- 25:08Speaker 1: you think about how good the Lakers defense has been
- 25:11Speaker 1: over the last five six games? And my second question is,
- 25:17Speaker 1: and I'll let you go, how come nobody is talking
- 25:20Speaker 1: about JJ Reddick and you.
- 25:22Speaker 5: Know how good he's been doing this performance with.
- 25:26Speaker 1: Them, because I don't think he's doing that good a job.
- 25:30Speaker 1: Number one. We'll start with that, but thank you. And
- 25:32Speaker 1: if the problem with the Lakers is not like five
- 25:34Speaker 1: or six games, Ricky, it's that ultimately in a seven
- 25:37Speaker 1: game playoff series, they're going to have at some point
- 25:41Speaker 1: Lebron and Luca on the court or at least I
- 25:45Speaker 1: would say forty minutes of a forty eight minute game,
- 25:47Speaker 1: which means they will be on the power play on offense,
- 25:51Speaker 1: and they will be shorthanded on defense because they will
- 25:54Speaker 1: be playing three on five defense. And you could argue
- 25:56Speaker 1: they'll be playing seven on five on offense because Luke
- 26:00Speaker 1: is such a great offensive player and Lebron can still
- 26:02Speaker 1: get past anybody and get to the basket even though
- 26:05Speaker 1: he's forty. So that's the It's like a zero sum game,
- 26:09Speaker 1: is what it is. For that that's the the issue.
- 26:12Speaker 1: And also I was reading a story about this guy
- 26:14Speaker 1: Mark Williams who they got, who apparently is a dog
- 26:17Speaker 1: with fleas, that he is just lazy and he doesn't
- 26:21Speaker 1: doesn't hustle, and that that is totally against the propaganda
- 26:25Speaker 1: coming out of Lakerland about how they've got there Forever
- 26:28Speaker 1: Center now and it's going to be a two man
- 26:30Speaker 1: team with Luca and then this guy Williams. I mean,
- 26:33Speaker 1: they just the last game this cat played for the
- 26:36Speaker 1: Charlotte Hornets, the broadcaster for the Hornets, like Red in
- 26:42Speaker 1: the Riot Act and the guys on the payroll, you're
- 26:43Speaker 1: not supposed to do that. It's not allowed. You're not
- 26:46Speaker 1: supposed to rip guys on your own team. But he
- 26:49Speaker 1: did it, and that I imagine how pathetic the effort
- 26:53Speaker 1: must have been by that cat Mark Williams, where one
- 26:56Speaker 1: of the own broadcasters for the Hornets eat him out
- 27:00Speaker 1: on what a terrible effort he was given, how lazy
- 27:03Speaker 1: he was on defense. So I'd be very concerned if
- 27:06Speaker 1: I was I was a Laker supporter. There a historian
- 27:09Speaker 1: that you got a guy who's fools gold in this
- 27:12Speaker 1: guy Williams. He's a young guy, he's got good raw
- 27:15Speaker 1: numbers on a bad team. And I know because I
- 27:18Speaker 1: spent a lot of time back in my younger days
- 27:19Speaker 1: around bad NBA teams, and someone's gonna have to get
- 27:23Speaker 1: a lot of rebounds, someone's gonna get after. You get
- 27:24Speaker 1: a lot of points on bad teams. It doesn't mean
- 27:26Speaker 1: they're good and it doesn't mean they're winning players. So
- 27:31Speaker 1: be very very careful, very very careful, please all right,
- 27:35Speaker 1: back to the phones. Eight seven seven ninety nine on
- 27:38Speaker 1: Fox is the number. Let's go to Kevin, who's in
- 27:42Speaker 1: the Bay area. Hello, Kevin, welcome, you're on Fox.
- 27:48Speaker 6: Okay, can you hear me?
- 27:52Speaker 1: No?
- 27:54Speaker 3: You can't hear me?
- 27:56Speaker 1: No, I can't hear you. Can you can hear Can
- 27:58Speaker 1: you hear this guy? Coop? I can who you're talking? About.
- 28:03Speaker 1: I mean, there's some guy. We're trying to hear this guy, Kevin.
- 28:06Speaker 1: I don't know what you can't. Let's try to. Let's
- 28:10Speaker 1: go to Kevin and he's in Hayward. Hello, Kevin. Hello.
- 28:14Speaker 6: I think Manning should make it because he's the only
- 28:19Speaker 6: one to beat Brady in his heyday twice.
- 28:24Speaker 1: So it doesn't matter that he was average. It doesn't
- 28:27Speaker 1: matter he was not at any point because he Isn't
- 28:30Speaker 1: the Hall of Fame about dominance. Isn't the Hall of
- 28:33Speaker 1: Fame about being the top one percent of all players?
- 28:36Speaker 7: Yeah?
- 28:36Speaker 6: I know, but that ain't the way things work. I
- 28:38Speaker 6: don't think I think they were.
- 28:40Speaker 1: They were on Thursday, and they were on Thursday night, though, Kevin,
- 28:43Speaker 1: because he didn't get voted in right I mean, otherwise
- 28:46Speaker 1: he would have been voted in right away. But your
- 28:48Speaker 1: I mean, I understand what you're saying. And you're in
- 28:50Speaker 1: the You're on the majority. I'm in the minority. You're
- 28:52Speaker 1: on the majority side, Kevin, I'm on the minority side.
- 28:54Speaker 5: I know.
- 28:55Speaker 6: I don't think he's necessarily a great quarterback. I just
- 28:57Speaker 6: think to the fact that he beat the out twice
- 29:02Speaker 6: in the.
- 29:03Speaker 1: Day, So the fact that he didn't win. The fact
- 29:07Speaker 1: that he didn't win another playoff game outside of those
- 29:10Speaker 1: two years asn't matter. And he was a five hond
- 29:12Speaker 1: quarterback and it only led the NFL in interceptions.
- 29:14Speaker 5: That's the only I get all that.
- 29:17Speaker 8: And he doesn't actually play against Tom Brady.
- 29:21Speaker 1: It's a fair point. And you could also who was
- 29:23Speaker 1: the defensive back to the Patriots to drop the interception
- 29:25Speaker 1: that would have won one of those two Super Bowls?
- 29:27Speaker 1: So then we're not even having this conversation.
- 29:29Speaker 2: Uh.
- 29:29Speaker 1: And then there was that that fugazy helmet catch which
- 29:33Speaker 1: was bull crap.
- 29:34Speaker 6: Well it wasn't because he did catch it, So.
- 29:38Speaker 1: I know, I disagree. I think that he was in
- 29:42Speaker 1: he was in the grasp. I remember we did a
- 29:44Speaker 1: monologue about that after the game. Eli Manning was in
- 29:46Speaker 1: the grass. They didn't call it. The official didn't have
- 29:48Speaker 1: the balls to call it. He was in the grasp.
- 29:50Speaker 1: It should have been a sack.
- 29:52Speaker 6: Well, just like when the Raiders lost, right, Uh, that
- 29:56Speaker 6: was the tech girl. That shouldn't happened either.
- 29:59Speaker 1: Well, what about you're doing? What about ism? Kevin? How
- 30:02Speaker 1: dare you? How dare you?
- 30:05Speaker 5: All right?
- 30:05Speaker 1: Thanks for listening, Kevin? All right, I'm gonna go Kevin. Hey.

- 30:30Speaker 1: Mister Irrigation one of our favorites. Even though he's in Houston,
- 30:35Speaker 1: we still love the guy. Mister Irrigation is on the
- 30:37Speaker 1: Ben Malashow, what's going on, mister Irrigation?
- 30:40Speaker 5: Ben, You're number sixteen. That's awesome. I mean that is awesome.
- 30:45Speaker 5: It comes right after fifteen. I mean, hey, I'm gonna
- 30:50Speaker 5: tell you. When I found you, I was listening to
- 30:52Speaker 5: Coach Kussman. I mean, you're no Art Fell, but you're
- 30:55Speaker 5: better than Jorgean Orrick.
- 30:59Speaker 1: Well. I like George. I like George. I offered most nights.
- 31:03Speaker 1: I parked next to Georgia's car and and uh yeah,
- 31:06Speaker 1: I'm I definitely have no. I'm definitely no Art Bell.
- 31:08Speaker 1: Art's a legend, and Art I think he's got a
- 31:12Speaker 1: I think he's got either a plaque or a statue
- 31:14Speaker 1: in Perumpt, Nevada, and I was actually in Perumpt, Nevada
- 31:20Speaker 1: because I was there for an event. My wife's work
- 31:22Speaker 1: had a race baker to Vegas and I was there
- 31:25Speaker 1: and I didn't have a chance, and I was so
- 31:27Speaker 1: pissed because it was the only time I'll probably ever
- 31:29Speaker 1: be in Perumpt, Nevada. And I wanted to find that
- 31:32Speaker 1: damn Art Belf tribute thing and I could you know,
- 31:34Speaker 1: I couldn't. I didn't have time to do it. I
- 31:36Speaker 1: couldn't find it. And the only other reason to go
- 31:38Speaker 1: to Prompt, Nevada is that's where all the whorehouses are.
- 31:41Speaker 1: So yeah, I mean, you know, that's where it's legal.
- 31:44Speaker 1: People think prostitution are legal in Vegas. It's you got it.
- 31:47Speaker 1: They drive you out to Perump and then you can
- 31:49Speaker 1: get some rump out there in Perump. That's I think.
- 31:51Speaker 1: That's why I call it Perump. I think so.
- 31:54Speaker 5: As an Oiler fan band, the last thing we really
- 31:58Speaker 5: have is the fact that the Oil almost became the
- 32:01Speaker 5: first team to win three in a row. They lost
- 32:03Speaker 5: to a team called the Dallas Texans, which are now
- 32:06Speaker 5: the Kansas Students. Cheap and so I hopefully kicks the
- 32:10Speaker 5: crap out of the Chiefs thirty five to ten, like
- 32:12Speaker 5: the first sum Well, I think of.
- 32:15Speaker 1: The great moments. When I think of the great moments
- 32:16Speaker 1: and oilers history, I will never forget the AFC playoff
- 32:21Speaker 1: game bills and oilers.
- 32:22Speaker 5: And that was kind of like the fifth game of
- 32:26Speaker 5: the Dodgers and the Astros in the World Series.
- 32:30Speaker 1: Man, I oh, sorry, are you are you saying that?
- 32:32Speaker 1: Are you saying the bills were cheating? Is that what
- 32:34Speaker 1: you were saying? There were the bills using trash cans?
- 32:36Speaker 1: Is that what you're saying. You're saying they were cheating?
- 32:39Speaker 1: Is that what you're saying, You're saying they were cheating? Right?
- 32:41Speaker 5: And I found out the Dodgers had lost.
- 32:46Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, and then and then and then like two
- 32:49Speaker 1: years later, you found out your team was cheating. It's like, wow,
- 32:51Speaker 1: wait a minute, what happened? I can't believe it is wild,
- 32:54Speaker 1: wild and crazy.
- 32:55Speaker 5: He's an oiler fan. I was an oiler fan. And
- 32:58Speaker 5: when the oilers were hot, man, that were better than
- 33:00Speaker 5: the Astros. I mean, when Bid left town, he was
- 33:03Speaker 5: written from the Astros. Man. I mean, the media in
- 33:05Speaker 5: this town just gets it so warped, you know what
- 33:08Speaker 5: I mean?
- 33:09Speaker 1: Well, the issue too, as I remember those oiler teams
- 33:12Speaker 1: and maybe you know you were there in the belly
- 33:14Speaker 1: of the beast, but like they were great in the dome,
- 33:17Speaker 1: and then inevitably they'd have to play on the road
- 33:19Speaker 1: in the playoffs at some point and it was just
- 33:21Speaker 1: a poop show. They didn't just couldn't get it done
- 33:24Speaker 1: because they were dome team. And that's how all dome
- 33:26Speaker 1: teams were in that era. They couldn't went on outdoor,
- 33:29Speaker 1: you know, outdoor cold weather, they were done.
- 33:32Speaker 5: You're right, I mean, hey, when they almost won three
- 33:34Speaker 5: in a row, it was outside winter overtime. I don't
- 33:40Speaker 5: think the Chiefs will win it. I think I don't
- 33:42Speaker 5: think they want them to win it. I don't think
- 33:44Speaker 5: they want a free peace.
- 33:45Speaker 1: Why would they not want a three P Why would
- 33:46Speaker 1: not think.
- 33:47Speaker 5: The NFL is rigged? I mean ever since.
- 33:49Speaker 1: Written stop stop out there, you spent too much time
- 33:57Speaker 1: in the irrigation businesses. That's that's the problem, is irrigation. Shot.
- 34:02Speaker 1: You're laying a lot of fight. All right, thank you,
- 34:08Speaker 1: mister irrigation. I'm gonna hang up on you now, all right,
- 34:12Speaker 1: go away. It is the the Ben Mau Show. We're
- 34:16Speaker 1: hanging out with you, and uh, we have some great audit.
- 34:19Speaker 1: Can we play that right now to we have so
- 34:21Speaker 1: NFL players say the darnedest things. We take it to
- 34:24Speaker 1: the Hall of Fame. Not the Hall of Fame. It
- 34:26Speaker 1: was the NFL Honors thing. And Justin Jefferson is the
- 34:32Speaker 1: Minnesota Viking star player and they were doing a tribute
- 34:35Speaker 1: to Randy Moss, I believe. And so Jefferson's up there
- 34:39Speaker 1: on stage and he's talking to the big hall of
- 34:43Speaker 1: all these NFL big shots and all, and let's just
- 34:48Speaker 1: say he channeled the guy I do a TV show
- 34:50Speaker 1: and listen to what happened. It's unbelievable. Listen closely.
- 34:54Speaker 7: Planning Robins the NFL is a jam jile, but playing
- 34:58Speaker 7: a position in Minnesota it means something.
- 35:01Speaker 1: A little extra. Oh, I'm sorry, that's the first day
- 35:05Speaker 1: he hit the mic.
- 35:05Speaker 7: Because of the tradition and excellence we've got going on there,
- 35:11Speaker 7: here we go.
- 35:13Speaker 6: The prompter.
- 35:14Speaker 7: I'm sorry, guys, but.
- 35:23Speaker 1: All right, that's good. Right now, we're gonna start it over.
- 35:31Speaker 7: Claire Roberts in the NFL as a dream job. Planning
- 35:38Speaker 7: this position, it means something.
