2:48
Speaker 1: So I've been told that people wanted to hear this.
2:51
Speaker 2: They did.
2:51
Speaker 1: I did a baseball rant last hour. I don't care
2:54
Speaker 1: about the baseball. What are you talking about?
2:57
Speaker 2: Shut up? I'll give you to a ont dance dance,
3:01
Speaker 2: monkey dance. All right, I'm gonna dance. I'm gonna a
3:04
Speaker 2: train seal. I'm gonna put the damn ball on my
3:07
Speaker 2: nose and I'm gonna dance for you with the ball
3:10
Speaker 2: on my nose.
3:11
Speaker 1: Are you happy a train seal?
3:14
Speaker 2: So we head to Southern California in NFC West grudge
3:18
Speaker 2: match that was supposed to be a mismatch, every key
3:23
Speaker 2: indicator pointing how battered and broken the forty nine ers
3:27
Speaker 2: were heading into the hood.
3:28
Speaker 1: In Inglewood and up to no good? Boy? Were they
3:31
Speaker 1: up to no good?
3:33
Speaker 2: As they took on the heavily favored La Rams. This
3:35
Speaker 2: line skyrocketed by five points. Now, you're probably not a gambler.
3:40
Speaker 2: You might not even care about gambling. That is a
3:43
Speaker 2: big line movement. It went from three to three and
3:45
Speaker 2: a half to up to eight and a half points
3:48
Speaker 2: and the game ended up going to oh for time.
3:52
Speaker 2: If you didn't see it, maybe you're blind or you
3:55
Speaker 2: just weren't into it. Eddie Pinero, remember him, the old
3:59
Speaker 2: Bears kicker passed around hit a forty one yard field
4:02
Speaker 2: goal in overtime that joinked off the cross for a crossbar.
4:06
Speaker 1: There before.
4:07
Speaker 2: San Francisco was about to lose anyway, and then they
4:11
Speaker 2: stuffed Kyron Williams on fourth down with three thirty six
4:17
Speaker 2: to play on a fourth down play and the short
4:20
Speaker 2: handed forty nine Ers celebrating, I get it, you beat
4:24
Speaker 2: the Rams. You should celebrate. That's a much better team
4:26
Speaker 2: than you. And the Niners celebrated. They hung on. They
4:29
Speaker 2: win by a field goal over the pathetic Rams on
4:32
Speaker 2: Thursday night. Now, the story here is Sean McVay postgame,
4:36
Speaker 2: who was asked about his decision. He went for it
4:39
Speaker 2: on fourth down, it didn't work. He's getting absolutely roasted.
4:45
Speaker 2: Sean McVay for his decision, and here's McVeigh.
4:50
Speaker 1: He's like, hey, you know, you can goof on me
4:52
Speaker 1: all you want.
4:52
Speaker 2: Heres Sean McVay pointing out that he's the one that
4:54
Speaker 2: left up take a list.
4:55
Speaker 1: It's a bad call. It's a bad call by me.
4:58
Speaker 3: Thought about maybe trying to draw him off side of
5:00
Speaker 3: took one, they took the other, And it was a
5:03
Speaker 3: poor decision by me right there. But you know, you
5:06
Speaker 3: give the Niners credit. They made enough plays to be
5:08
Speaker 3: able to win the football game. We had plenty of
5:10
Speaker 3: chances throughout this game. You know, we stayed in it.
5:12
Speaker 3: We fought, we battled. But I'm pretty sick right now.
5:14
Speaker 3: I'm sick of the spot that I put our group
5:16
Speaker 3: in to end the game. But hey, these are the
5:20
Speaker 3: tough beats that you got to be able to learn
5:21
Speaker 3: from and move forward.
5:22
Speaker 4: And that's what we're gonna do.
5:24
Speaker 5: All right.
5:24
Speaker 2: So that was McVeigh there. He also went on he
5:27
Speaker 2: did purse later on in that beginning. I think that
5:30
Speaker 2: would be a good drop. We don't usually do these anymore,
5:32
Speaker 2: but the very beginning. Let's play this, McVeigh again, because
5:35
Speaker 2: I think that's a quick, hot drop.
5:37
Speaker 1: That we can use on the show, just the beginning
5:39
Speaker 1: of that. McVeigh play that again. Let's see this.
5:40
Speaker 3: It's a bad call. It's a bad call by me.
5:43
Speaker 3: Thought about that's that drawm off.
5:44
Speaker 1: Isn't that? Would that not be a great drop?
5:47
Speaker 2: I don we don't do a lot of drops, but
5:49
Speaker 2: that would be a that would be a great drop
5:51
Speaker 2: because the reason I think that's a great job it's
5:54
Speaker 2: an evergreen drop.
5:55
Speaker 1: Now what an evergreen drop is? We can use it
5:57
Speaker 1: what I like to do.
5:58
Speaker 2: I used to do this a lot with some of
5:59
Speaker 2: the old ancient we do out of context drops. For example,
6:03
Speaker 2: there was a hockey coach who had one of the
6:05
Speaker 2: all time great postgame rants. We sucked at a time
6:08
Speaker 2: we couldn't suck, you know, and all this stuff, and uh,
6:11
Speaker 2: we play out of context audio. So I think that
6:14
Speaker 2: McVeigh thing would be great, Like, for example, let's do
6:17
Speaker 2: a little game here.
6:18
Speaker 1: Let'slet's do it again real quick on the fly.
6:20
Speaker 2: So I'll be like, hey, the Dodgers are gonna lose
6:21
Speaker 2: game one of the Phillies and Dave Roberts is gonna
6:23
Speaker 2: make a mistake with his bullpen. So we'll say, here's
6:25
Speaker 2: Dave Roberts Dave, can you explain what happened with your bullpen?
6:28
Speaker 1: It's a bad call.
6:29
Speaker 3: It's a bad call by me thought about it.
6:31
Speaker 1: Oh it's so good God? Is that a great drop?
6:34
Speaker 1: We need that? Can we get that? Can get? Can
6:36
Speaker 1: we get that? I want I need that in my life.
6:39
Speaker 1: I need that drop in my life.
6:41
Speaker 2: I need that. I need that drop. All right, all right,
6:46
Speaker 2: here's now. I like profanity. We're overnight safe harbor. I'm
6:50
Speaker 2: reminded every time I get paid that I'm on overnights.
6:53
Speaker 2: So let's play Sean McVay, who needs to have his
6:56
Speaker 2: mouth washed out with soap and water.
6:58
Speaker 1: Take a listen.
6:58
Speaker 3: In hindsight, I wish I would, but uh no, we were.
7:02
Speaker 3: We came in here to try to win the football game.
7:04
Speaker 3: It didn't go down Forrest Garry. That was that wasn't
7:06
Speaker 3: even a thought. But the play selection was very poor.
7:10
Speaker 3: I'm sick right now because I put our players in
7:12
Speaker 3: a spot, and uh I gotta live with that.
7:16
Speaker 2: All right, Well that's the story. The better stories in
7:18
Speaker 2: losing locker room.
7:19
Speaker 1: So what do you say? Let's rally around the radio here,
7:21
Speaker 1: we'll huddle around and we'll.
7:23
Speaker 2: Discuss The question was very hard on himself, but was
7:27
Speaker 2: Rams coach shaw Mvay gutsy or goofy going forward on
7:33
Speaker 2: fourth down down by a field goal in overtime. So
7:38
Speaker 2: my observations, I've got Farmers Market offer up and Jacouzzi
7:44
Speaker 2: and we will combine all of these things together.
7:47
Speaker 1: And we are going to make your.
7:49
Speaker 2: Babushka's favorite gummy bears. That's right, your Babushka's favorite gummy bear.
7:54
Speaker 2: So number one, number one enough, all right. So the
8:02
Speaker 2: arrow on this one is I actually like what McVeigh did.
8:06
Speaker 2: I clearly don't like the result, but I like that
8:08
Speaker 2: he went for it. I like that he's gutsy and
8:11
Speaker 2: I know what he's doing. He's protecting his team, right,
8:14
Speaker 2: He's like, blame me. I'm the bad guy, you know,
8:16
Speaker 2: I'm the one that affed up. Bad call, bad call
8:18
Speaker 2: by me. I know what he's doing, right. But this
8:22
Speaker 2: was not some cowards tie you know, tie ball special.
8:27
Speaker 2: McVeigh actually had intestinal fortitude. And they didn't show this
8:31
Speaker 2: on the Amazon broadcasts, and I wish Al Michael's had
8:33
Speaker 2: shown it.
8:34
Speaker 1: He's probably back in bed there in Brentwood right now.
8:36
Speaker 1: But if they had shown it, like, went went for it, right,
8:40
Speaker 1: and he went down.
8:41
Speaker 2: McVeigh went down to the farmer's market and it turns
8:44
Speaker 2: out that his balls are the size of cantalopes, really candalopes,
8:49
Speaker 2: and he's I'm not living in the world where ties exist.
8:52
Speaker 2: I don't want ties, no ties. I don't need a tie.
8:55
Speaker 2: We had the Cowboys and the Packers tie. How much
8:58
Speaker 2: did that suck? It was embarrassing for the NFL for
9:02
Speaker 2: the product to emb Mcveigh's.
9:04
Speaker 1: Like, no, we're gonna win the game.
9:05
Speaker 2: We're gonna wear the better team. We're gonna win the game.
9:07
Speaker 2: I say, bravo. Now that's it again. I cannot ignore
9:11
Speaker 2: the execution. It's like the old line from the Buccaneers
9:14
Speaker 2: coach back in the Jay Back in the day, John
9:16
Speaker 2: McKay said, what do you think your team's execution?
9:19
Speaker 1: And he said, I support it. I'm in support of it.
9:21
Speaker 2: But McVeigh, like, I go through the psychology of this
9:25
Speaker 2: stuff and am I overthinking it?
9:27
Speaker 1: Probably? But I have a talk show to do, so
9:29
Speaker 1: I'm probably overthinking it.
9:30
Speaker 2: But like McVeigh put the ball in Kyron Williams's hands,
9:34
Speaker 2: the Golden Domer, and he did it for reputation, rehab.
9:39
Speaker 1: That's why he did it.
9:40
Speaker 2: The same guy who had already gagged in regulation. I
9:44
Speaker 2: coughed up the fur ball with a a little over
9:46
Speaker 2: a minute to go in regulation. It was like sending
9:49
Speaker 2: the person who just dropped the wedding cake back into
9:52
Speaker 2: the bakery to carry out the next wedding cake. Like
9:55
Speaker 2: that's ballsy, right, that's ballsy. I mentioned balls the size
9:58
Speaker 2: of candles. He wanted to give a confidence boost to
10:01
Speaker 2: his running back. The problem the turd in the punch
10:05
Speaker 2: bowl is the players shrank down. They had balls. The
10:10
Speaker 2: size of chickapiece is what they had. So mcvey's got cantalopes,
10:13
Speaker 2: they got chickapiece. Williams Now has stank all over. He
10:18
Speaker 2: fumbled at the goal line, and then what happened in overtime?
10:23
Speaker 1: You know what that is? That's the Chris collins Worth
10:25
Speaker 1: double doink? Is what that is?
10:27
Speaker 2: Doink doink, except they didn't go through the uprights. He
10:30
Speaker 2: lost the game twice. Do you know how hard it
10:33
Speaker 2: is for one player, when there's eleven players on the
10:35
Speaker 2: field on both sides and special teams, for one guy
10:38
Speaker 2: to be such a stumblebumb He lost a game.
10:41
Speaker 1: Twice, and he's not a quarterback.
10:43
Speaker 2: You know how hard that is, you know the math
10:45
Speaker 2: on that, the malor math, how difficult it is, Kyro Williams. Congratulations,
10:48
Speaker 2: you get to wear the booby prize. You did it
10:51
Speaker 2: now regardless, all right, mcvey's you know, I'm the bad
10:54
Speaker 2: guy and all that. He's taking the bullet on that.
10:56
Speaker 2: But it's not about the decision. It's about the result.
10:59
Speaker 2: McVeigh tried to give this kid his redemption tor and
11:03
Speaker 2: the kid pooped his pants.
11:04
Speaker 1: You know, it's like the kid.
11:06
Speaker 2: You know, they go number number one and then you say, okay,
11:09
Speaker 2: well you're not gonna go number one again.
11:10
Speaker 1: No I'm not dad, I'm not going to go number one. Mom,
11:13
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna go number one again.
11:14
Speaker 2: But then they went number two and you said, well
11:16
Speaker 2: you you didn't go number one, you're right, but you
11:18
Speaker 2: want number two.
11:19
Speaker 1: You're not supposed to number two either. But again McVeigh,
11:21
Speaker 1: I like it.
11:22
Speaker 2: He had stones, they went for it, and Williams it
11:25
Speaker 2: turns out has stone hands.
11:27
Speaker 1: So it's unfortunate turn of events.
11:29
Speaker 2: Down page two, keeping the theme of the hour, going
11:33
Speaker 2: the question here, what is the most embarrassing part of
11:38
Speaker 2: the rams? The biggest favorite around? Biggest favorite obviously there's
11:44
Speaker 2: a one game where the line is bigger this weekend,
11:45
Speaker 2: but the Rams eight and that point favorites losing outright
11:49
Speaker 2: at home to a beaten and broken forty nine er team.
11:52
Speaker 2: So the answer, what's the most embarrassing thing? This is
11:55
Speaker 2: e as y easy. They sashade their way into stadium.
12:01
Speaker 1: Right, and they're like, oh, we got no problem.
12:04
Speaker 2: Kyle Shanahan is putting backups of backups in there, right,
12:08
Speaker 2: guys who were plucked from the NFL's reject bin. And
12:13
Speaker 2: those guys out hustled, outworked, and shoved it down your
12:17
Speaker 2: throat the forty nine ers.
12:19
Speaker 1: You know, I'm not a forty nine er fan.
12:21
Speaker 2: Or nest and you know those guys that are big
12:23
Speaker 2: forty nine er guys on the show and they call
12:24
Speaker 2: the show and our friend from Berkeley as well. But
12:27
Speaker 2: listen that that's criminal. It's one thing to lose, But
12:31
Speaker 2: all you have to do is work halfway decently.
12:34
Speaker 1: You win the game. You have a.
12:36
Speaker 2: Huge talent advantage. Now how do you overcome a lack
12:38
Speaker 2: of talent? You outwork the other team. That's what the
12:41
Speaker 2: forty nine ers did, and Sean mcvay's team acted like
12:46
Speaker 2: all they had to do was punch the time card,
12:49
Speaker 2: put their feet up, have a cocktail and just wait
12:52
Speaker 2: for the time to run by and they can collect
12:54
Speaker 2: a w and instead because of their own performance.
12:59
Speaker 1: Where they went out there and they played like they
13:01
Speaker 1: were soft Oi gouie football players. They had no edge,
13:04
Speaker 1: they had no passion, they had no character, and they
13:07
Speaker 1: got at l.
13:07
Speaker 2: LA thought they were scoring freebize like they were going
13:10
Speaker 2: on that offer up app and they're like free pick
13:13
Speaker 2: up curbside and they're like, okay, I'm gonna get that
13:16
Speaker 2: used couch and so they showed up. They were like, okay,
13:18
Speaker 2: this is good. I'm gonna get getting used couch off
13:20
Speaker 2: offer up. So they went and they got it, and
13:23
Speaker 2: it was it was nine, It was like one or
13:24
Speaker 2: two in the morning. They picked up the couch off
13:27
Speaker 2: offer up and it looked kind of nice and they
13:29
Speaker 2: put it in the back of their truck.
13:30
Speaker 1: They got home, they.
13:31
Speaker 2: Took it out, they put it up in their apartment
13:32
Speaker 2: and it turns out it smells like cat urine.
13:36
Speaker 1: But it was free. It was free. Yeah. Yeah. The
13:39
Speaker 1: forty nine ers rolled out. I looked at their depth.
13:42
Speaker 2: We handicapped the game with the Thursday night games for
13:45
Speaker 2: Benny versus depending on YouTube, and so I was handicapping
13:48
Speaker 2: the game. I look at everything. I was like, I
13:50
Speaker 2: hate betting favorites. I cannot stand betting favorites. But I
13:54
Speaker 2: looked at it, It's like, is there the only way?
13:57
Speaker 2: Well that there were two ways the forty nine Ers
13:59
Speaker 2: could have won this game. One of them is if
14:01
Speaker 2: like Stafford had gotten hurt, or like a couple of
14:03
Speaker 2: key players got hurt from the Rams, but that didn't happen.
14:06
Speaker 1: The other way would have been if the Rams just
14:08
Speaker 1: go la la la la la la la la la
14:10
Speaker 1: la la la la, don't put any effort in, and
14:14
Speaker 1: that's what happened. I did not.
14:15
Speaker 2: That is not a way that Sean Yavay's teams have
14:18
Speaker 2: generally played. And the flotsam and jetsam of the forty
14:22
Speaker 2: nine Ers, they piled up twenty seven first downs. I've
14:26
Speaker 2: been told, I've been sold to Billy Goods about how
14:28
Speaker 2: great the Rams defense is. Twenty seven first downs. You
14:31
Speaker 2: gave the backups of the backups over four hundred yards of offense.
14:35
Speaker 2: And here's the kicker, Mac Jones. Yes, Mac Jones, the
14:41
Speaker 2: guy who has been terrible. Most of us get black
14:45
Speaker 2: and blue all night and he still outplayed you. That's
14:48
Speaker 2: like losing a karaoke contest to William Hung.
14:51
Speaker 1: I don't even know I people know who that is anymore,
14:52
Speaker 1: but he look him up.
14:54
Speaker 2: But embarrassing, right, It doesn't even begin to describe what
14:58
Speaker 2: happened there for the Rams. And it's three strikes.
15:01
Speaker 1: You're out.
15:01
Speaker 2: Strike one, you're lazy, okay, Strike two, you lack passion
15:04
Speaker 2: that strike two, here's the third pitch.
15:06
Speaker 1: Strike three, lack of character, boom done. That's it. Strike one,
15:10
Speaker 1: strike two, strike three, that's it.
15:11
Speaker 2: And again, if you're McVeigh, this is the stuff that
15:14
Speaker 2: happens to other teams, this is not the stuff that
15:16
Speaker 2: happens to MC face team.
15:19
Speaker 1: The Rams lose games.
15:20
Speaker 2: They normally lose because they're not as good as the
15:22
Speaker 2: opponent in certain matchups. To lose like this. They missed
15:26
Speaker 2: a field goal in this game. The special teams continue
15:29
Speaker 2: to be a problem. The forty nine ers in overtime,
15:31
Speaker 2: they got the ball because of that fugazy kickoff rule.
15:35
Speaker 1: The idiot, I'd cut the RAM kicker. I don't care.
15:38
Speaker 1: I don't know who's foll of those kicks up. I'd
15:40
Speaker 1: cut him anyway. He's not even a real player the kicker.
15:43
Speaker 2: But he didn't get the kick in the kicking zone
15:47
Speaker 2: where it needed to go, and so the Niners took
15:50
Speaker 2: over deep in their own territory, which made it a
15:53
Speaker 2: short situation to get into field goal range.
15:56
Speaker 1: And so listen, they deserve to lose.
15:59
Speaker 2: The Rams was really just gutless the way they played
16:03
Speaker 2: the first half. They played better after that, but you
16:06
Speaker 2: got to play a whole game, all right. Final point,
16:10
Speaker 2: Let's address what my friends who are forty nine er
16:13
Speaker 2: fans are all horny for, and that is the play
16:15
Speaker 2: of their quarterback. Did Mac Jones just earn a new
16:20
Speaker 2: lease on life? Patriot trash, Jaguar trash? Did Mac Jones
16:25
Speaker 2: just earn a new lease on life on an island game?
16:29
Speaker 1: Or is this just a one week mirage for mac Jones?
16:33
Speaker 2: So I'm certainly not going to overreact here and say
16:36
Speaker 2: that this is a resurrection for Mac Jones. I'm not
16:39
Speaker 2: going to be that guy. It was a one night pass. Congratulations, Vip.
16:44
Speaker 2: You get behind the velvet ropes and you did that there,
16:47
Speaker 2: and we'll see what happens going forward. Chances are he
16:50
Speaker 2: goes back to bumming quarters like weed man, hippie at
16:53
Speaker 2: the bus station. But Mac Daddy, he was in the jacuzzie, right,
16:56
Speaker 2: he was in the dakoozie, and he took the hot tub.
16:59
Speaker 1: Time back to.
17:00
Speaker 2: Tusca Losa, Alabama, playing shot a smooth operator on repeat.
17:06
Speaker 2: No stress, no mass, no stress, no mass. He carved
17:10
Speaker 2: up the rims. I didn't think that was possible in
17:12
Speaker 2: the first half. Now he went as good as the saying.
17:14
Speaker 2: But the first half it was like he was at
17:16
Speaker 2: Alabama in twenty twenty playing against Mississippi State or Auburn
17:21
Speaker 2: just killing him. He actually looked like he knew what
17:24
Speaker 2: he was doing at the NFL level.
17:25
Speaker 1: He was a surgeon, is what he was. Clean hands, sharp,
17:29
Speaker 1: had a sharp scalpel, scalpel, and he didn't even sneeze.
17:32
Speaker 2: Know in the past he'd be sneezing on the patient
17:34
Speaker 2: while they were all cut open. Regardless of that, though,
17:37
Speaker 2: all right, let's hold off on building a statue in
17:40
Speaker 2: Santa Clara for Mac Jones.
17:41
Speaker 1: Here. What this does do, though, and this is the
17:45
Speaker 1: part that I like as a talk show host, is
17:48
Speaker 1: it creates a problem for brock Party. And I like that.
17:52
Speaker 2: I'm into that right because I was the guy barking
17:55
Speaker 2: from the top of the mountain.
17:56
Speaker 1: What are you doing? You shouldn't play rock party. He's
17:59
Speaker 1: not that good. At course they're oh my god.
18:01
Speaker 2: So I was that guy right, And my point was,
18:05
Speaker 2: it's the system stupid. My point was, it's the Kyle
18:09
Speaker 2: Shanahan coaching these guys up right, scheming these guys up.
18:12
Speaker 2: That brock Purty is not very good, but he got
18:14
Speaker 2: schemed up by Shanahan. You got boxed in middle Corny
18:18
Speaker 2: had to pay him. So if my hypothesis is correct,
18:22
Speaker 2: and of course nobody thinks they're wrong, So I think
18:24
Speaker 2: my hypothesis is correct. You look at this and mac Jones,
18:29
Speaker 2: he does have a little bit of a new lease
18:31
Speaker 2: on life, but not a full new lease on life
18:33
Speaker 2: just because you threw a clean game in October. But
18:36
Speaker 2: this adds to the mythical powers of Kyle Shanahan being
18:40
Speaker 2: a QB whisper. Also the worst big game coach in
18:42
Speaker 2: NFL history. But every guy looks better in that system.
18:47
Speaker 2: And I know John Lynch was very happy there after
18:50
Speaker 2: the game and they were showing shots. It looked like
18:52
Speaker 2: Robert Sally I think, had an orgasm with the thirty
18:54
Speaker 2: five yard line, the defensive coordinator. These guys are all
18:57
Speaker 2: fired up, But the Niners gave one hundred and eighty
19:00
Speaker 2: one million dollars to guaranteed to Brock Purdy, who suddenly
19:07
Speaker 2: doesn't look all that special compared to a scrap heap
19:11
Speaker 2: guy who has now outplayed him this season. Mac Jones,
19:17
Speaker 2: how does that taste that? That's a little bitter, right,
19:21
Speaker 2: that's sweet and sour.
19:22
Speaker 1: That's more sour.
19:23
Speaker 2: It's like Brock Perdy got the Lamborghini contract. He can
19:26
Speaker 2: buy a whole house of Lamborghinis. And then you got
19:29
Speaker 2: mac Jones out there driving a used Corolla with two
19:32
Speaker 2: hundred thousand miles on it. He goes out and side
19:35
Speaker 2: by side he beats the Lamborghini in the Indy five hundred.
19:39
Speaker 2: Now that being said, he did not play as well
19:42
Speaker 2: Mac Jones in the second half. It was really really
19:44
Speaker 2: good early a couple of touchdowns, very impressive the first half.
19:48
Speaker 2: The numbers did do the dipsy do in the second half.
19:51
Speaker 2: Is the game were on, but overall a net positive,
19:54
Speaker 2: a net positive, and it doesn't mean that he's the
19:57
Speaker 2: franchise savior. However, when Brock Party does get back on
20:01
Speaker 2: the field, and inevitably Brock will go out there and
20:04
Speaker 2: he'll cough up a hairball and then people say people
20:08
Speaker 2: call the forty nine Ers postgame show, and then local
20:10
Speaker 2: sports radio in the Bay Area they'll be.
20:12
Speaker 1: Like, well, what's going on? What about Mac job? Who
20:14

Speaker 2: week scheduled for about an hour from now. About an
22:50
Speaker 2: hour from now, we're discussing the RAM forty nine Ers
22:53
Speaker 2: game on a Thursday night where Mac Jones looked really
22:56
Speaker 2: good for a half, like really really.
22:58
Speaker 1: Good for a half.
23:01
Speaker 2: Eileen writes and says, no, She's in San Francisco, says,
23:05
Speaker 2: I'm not worried about Mac Jones or Brock party this morning,
23:08
Speaker 2: great game and after party. I like that old school
23:13
Speaker 2: forty nine or logo. Oh yeah, that is a that
23:17
Speaker 2: is a great logo.
23:19
Speaker 1: Solid I told you the old school, Ben, I love
23:22
Speaker 1: you o. No, I do love the old school.
23:24
Speaker 2: And you know the Wokeshers have ruined all sports logos
23:28
Speaker 2: like they just have I mean like the Washington Redskins
23:31
Speaker 2: are now called the Commanders that they have like the
23:33
Speaker 2: most generic logo. So I have some allegiances to San
23:37
Speaker 2: Diego because I did some work down there, and I
23:40
Speaker 2: still have a lot of friends in San Diego. And
23:42
Speaker 2: I actually one of my first jobs in radio, I
23:45
Speaker 2: was the engineer for San Diego State Men's basketball on
23:48
Speaker 2: Co Goo in San Diego.
23:50
Speaker 1: And I was the worst engineer you could possibly be.
23:52
Speaker 4: I was so bailly.
23:54
Speaker 2: Oh my god, I was horrific. They put in, well, yeah,
23:58
Speaker 2: I just have to talk. I don't, but but they
24:00
Speaker 2: put me in a production studio. And the worst night
24:03
Speaker 2: I ever had as a board op was when the
24:05
Speaker 2: Aztecs were playing Hawaii and it was late and I
24:10
Speaker 2: was like the only guy in the building because it
24:12
Speaker 2: was like one other there's a DJ that.
24:16
Speaker 1: Ninety one X I think it was called one of.
24:18
Speaker 2: The rock station in San Diego. So he was the
24:20
Speaker 2: only other person in the building and it was just
24:23
Speaker 2: a disaster. But anyway, I'm bringing this up because the
24:25
Speaker 2: Aztecs got rid of their They're still called the Aztecs,
24:28
Speaker 2: but they got rid of their mascot.
24:29
Speaker 1: Because it was offensive to the the Wolkesters. So they they.
24:34
Speaker 2: Released three draw and obviously this more visual thing than
24:36
Speaker 2: an audio thing, but they released three drawings of their
24:41
Speaker 2: what's going to be their new logo right, and oh
24:45
Speaker 2: my god, it is so bad. So they don't offend anyone,
24:51
Speaker 2: and by not wanting to offend anyone, you create this
24:55
Speaker 2: just horrific monstrosity. So there's three logos. One looks like
25:02
Speaker 2: an as Tech like it's trying to be an Aztech.
25:04
Speaker 1: Building because you want to.
25:05
Speaker 2: That's like the Cleveland Guardians, another team name that was
25:08
Speaker 2: destroyed in Mascot because of the Wolkesters.
25:10
Speaker 1: The Cleveland Indians became the.
25:13
Speaker 2: Guardians, which is a I'm told a bridge in Cleveland,
25:16
Speaker 2: the Guardian statues on the bridge.
25:18
Speaker 1: But god, this is so terrible, my god. You could
25:24
Speaker 1: go on AI.
25:24
Speaker 2: I don't know whatever AI you want to use, whether
25:26
Speaker 2: it's you know, the Twitter X thing, rock or chat,
25:31
Speaker 2: GPT or whatever you choose and come up with a
25:34
Speaker 2: better logo within about five minutes. Then they came up
25:37
Speaker 2: with at San Diego State. Holy crap, is that bad?
25:41
Speaker 2: My goodness.
25:41
Speaker 1: Anyway, let's go to the phones.
25:43
Speaker 2: It is a call in radio show, and let's say
25:45
Speaker 2: hello eenie meenie miney mole. Let's say hello to staff
25:49
Speaker 2: Sergeant Brian in La La Land. Hello, staff Sergeant Brian,
25:53
Speaker 2: you are on coast to coast on Fox Sports Radio.
25:56
Speaker 8: Welcome, what's up, Big Ben Mallard. This is fast, Uncle
26:01
Speaker 8: fran Calhoun, and I am the sports genius in my
26:04
Speaker 8: little click of friends.
26:05
Speaker 4: So I'd love to come in on this because I
26:07
Speaker 4: have a lot of.
26:08
Speaker 8: Liner friends to get all my nerves. But I got
26:11
Speaker 8: to give them credit for what I call the classic
26:16
Speaker 8: rivalry of coaches. Sean McVay took the Shanahan way too lightly,
26:23
Speaker 8: and Shanahan knew it, and Shanahan gave him the battle
26:27
Speaker 8: of a century because traditionally, if you look at these
26:30
Speaker 8: two matchups, Shanahan has owned Sean McVay in most of
26:35
Speaker 8: their meetings. And then once he got that monkey off
26:38
Speaker 8: his back, he started to think that his dookie doesn't
26:41
Speaker 8: stink anymore. And Shanahan said, no, it does stink, and
26:45
Speaker 8: let me show you how bad it stinks on Thursday night.
26:48
Speaker 8: And that's what happened tonight. Shanahan said, I'm going to
26:52
Speaker 8: show you what football is all about. It's cerebral, and
26:56
Speaker 8: I'm gonna out coach you. And that's exactly what happened.
27:01
Speaker 1: More importantly, Brian, how did you become a genius?
27:03
Speaker 4: Like?
27:03
Speaker 2: Who is there one of your friends said, hey, you're
27:06
Speaker 2: a genius, Like, at what point did you get the
27:08
Speaker 2: title sports genius?
27:10
Speaker 8: Well, you know what, I'm glad you asked that, Ben Mallard,
27:12
Speaker 8: because I've been listening to you for a long time.
27:14
Speaker 8: I got to give you a little credit there because
27:16
Speaker 8: I've listened to your commentary. Do you make me laugh?
27:20
Speaker 4: Sometimes you make me mad.
27:22
Speaker 8: I have to halfway agree with you half the time.
27:25
Speaker 8: And then sometimes you've proven yourself to be a sports genius.
27:28
Speaker 8: And sometimes you got to take that sound machine and
27:32
Speaker 8: all that stuff and make some sounds because you've made
27:35
Speaker 8: a mistake.
27:36
Speaker 2: However, well again the key, Brian, and this is the ultimate.
27:43
Speaker 2: Anytime something doesn't go your way, you just have to
27:45
Speaker 2: remember at the time, at the time you made the analysis,
27:48
Speaker 2: that was the right analysis. Now I will argue your point, Brian,
27:52
Speaker 2: that the main reason I believe the Rams, and this
27:56
Speaker 2: is on McVeagh. I'm not giving McVeigh pass, but the
27:57
Speaker 2: reason the Rams played like that is because they bought
28:00
Speaker 2: into the media praise. As the coaches like to say,
28:03
Speaker 2: it's rat poison everyone and their mother. I believe the
28:07
Speaker 2: amount of money that was on the Rams was like
28:11
Speaker 2: eighty five ninety percent of the bets were on the
28:13
Speaker 2: Rams because everyone just assumed the Rams just gonna show
28:15
Speaker 2: up and win, and they didn't take the Niners seriously.
28:18
Speaker 1: But that's on McVeigh. McVeigh.
28:20
Speaker 2: You got to make sure your team's ready to go,
28:22
Speaker 2: and they were not ready to play that game. And
28:23
Speaker 2: it's a credit to Shanahan that they did shove it
28:25
Speaker 2: down the Rams throat, So good for them.
28:27
Speaker 8: And oh yeah, I mean, look what I mean, how
28:30
Speaker 8: can you comp up the ball and unbelievable? Yeah, yeah,
28:39
Speaker 8: you get a second shot at scoring of football.
28:41
Speaker 2: Well the one at the one the one minute, a
28:45
Speaker 2: little over a minute in regulation.
28:47
Speaker 1: You that No, I mean, what are you doing? You
28:49
Speaker 1: just didn't even walk it. You just hold onto it.
28:51
Speaker 1: Oh my god.
28:52
Speaker 2: I mean, I know it's not easy, but you get
28:54
Speaker 2: paid a lot of money to hold on the ball.
28:56
Speaker 1: Anyway, all right, I gotta go.
28:57
Speaker 2: Brad, Thank you man, I call anytime. That's a genius.
29:00
Speaker 2: So we had an actual said that out coup on
29:02
Speaker 2: social media. Sports genius called.
29:04
Speaker 1: The show a sports genius.
29:07
Speaker 2: And now we go to the village idiot blind Scott,
29:10
Speaker 2: who is next here on the Ben Malor Show cashing
29:12
Speaker 2: a golden ticket.
29:13
Speaker 1: How did he get it? Okay, all right, yes, Hellott.
29:22
Speaker 8: I'm calling about these logos. You were calling them woke.
29:25
Speaker 4: It's like a Guardian bridge or something.
29:27
Speaker 1: So yeah, yeah, it's a weird thing for you to
29:30
Speaker 1: point out.
29:32
Speaker 4: You are power dude in the White House. You're already
29:35
Speaker 4: in power. Like what do you care about?
29:36
Speaker 1: All right?
29:37
Speaker 2: I want to it's not a political thank you, Scott.
29:39
Speaker 2: It's not a political show. But the point is when
29:41
Speaker 2: he's the word woke.
29:42
Speaker 1: It's you don't want to offend anyone.
29:43
Speaker 2: Everyone's the very offensive people offended by the Cleveland Indians name.
29:47
Speaker 2: So they there's, by the ways, a baseball team in Indianapolis,
29:50
Speaker 2: a Triple A team called the Indianapolis Indians.
29:52
Speaker 1: Should point that out. They just changed their their logo
29:55
Speaker 1: or whatever.
29:56
Speaker 2: But yeah, when you change things because you don't offend anyone,
29:59
Speaker 2: you and up offending everyone because they're like, well, that's stupid,
30:02
Speaker 2: that's dumb. Let's say hello to Poppy, who's gonna now
30:06
Speaker 2: We're gonna have a Podre funeral now in San Diego.
30:08
Speaker 2: Hello Poppy, welcome. Yeah, good job by your Padres, Poppy,
30:13
Speaker 2: way to go, good job by the boys.
30:15
Speaker 4: Hey Ben Maller, Yeah, we're gonna do the segment with
30:18
Speaker 4: the a you know, and well we're not.
30:22
Speaker 2: We're not doing that because he's not on hold. But yeah,
30:24
Speaker 2: let's talk about your Padres. Let's talk about your Padres
30:27
Speaker 2: because you you were talking a lot of trash, Poppy.
30:29
Speaker 1: You were very arrogant about the Padres there.
30:32
Speaker 2: You're very confident in your in your boys, and how
30:35
Speaker 2: did that work out for you?
30:37
Speaker 4: Well, you know, it is what it is. But I
30:41
Speaker 4: just want to, you know, say it'll be better and
30:45
Speaker 4: a lot of base how.
30:46
Speaker 1: Is it going to be better?
30:48
Speaker 2: They don't play until Spring trains, they're gonna win the
30:50
Speaker 2: Cactus League to Padres. Now, I'm gonna be positive. I'm
30:54
Speaker 2: gonna be positive, Poppy, because you're little slow.
30:56
Speaker 1: Are you tired of everying? Okay with you? So I'm
30:58
Speaker 1: very tired.
30:58
Speaker 4: Well, look, I just want to do right now.
31:01
Speaker 1: All right, I'll put you back on over the lep.
31:03
Speaker 2: I can't do the segment, not that you allow the
31:04
Speaker 2: lepreaun to talk, but it's not here. The good news, though, Poppy,
31:08
Speaker 2: is you had the same batting average as Jake Croninworth
31:10
Speaker 2: in the playoffs. You had as many hits as Jake
31:12
Speaker 2: Croninworth in the playoffs. So congratulations on that. The podres
31:16
Speaker 2: is that zero? Uh what do you think?
31:24
Speaker 1: Yea, yea, yeah, yeah, yea yeah yea.
31:27
Speaker 2: All right, anyway, so I mentioned this that teams he
31:29
Speaker 2: got paid off. So the tax grab the Chicago Bears
31:33
Speaker 2: and moving out to the suburbs in building a big
31:36
Speaker 2: stadium at this old racetrack in the suburban area of.
31:39
Speaker 1: Chicago, and it's a it's a cooler.
31:41
Speaker 2: I actually have a cousin lives not far from there
31:43
Speaker 2: in the Chicago area and it's a good, good amount
31:46
Speaker 2: of land. And the Bears in order to build that
31:50
Speaker 2: stadium would like to get almost one billion dollars in
31:55
Speaker 2: taxpayer money to build a suburban stadium. They're asking for
31:59
Speaker 2: eight hundred and fifty five million dollars out of the
32:02
Speaker 2: public coffers. Yes, no, No, eight hundred and fifty five billion,
32:08
Speaker 2: which tells you the Bears owners, I guess they don't
32:11
Speaker 2: have that, Like the Broncos are building a stadium, but
32:13
Speaker 2: they have Walmart money, so they don't need any public money.
32:15
Speaker 1: They're just building it with the Walmart.
32:17
Speaker 5: Best ownership in the NFL.
32:19
Speaker 1: That's hold off on that. But yeah, so the Broncos
32:21
Speaker 1: are doing it that way.
32:22
Speaker 2: The Rams, also with Walmart money, built their stadium without
32:26
Speaker 2: needing taxpayer money, not a billion dollars or anything like that.
32:30
Speaker 2: So I thought that was interesting, and I hate giving
32:33
Speaker 2: these aristocrats the taxpayer money for a football stadium.
32:37
Speaker 1: Where they gouge you with the price of tickets and
32:40
Speaker 1: all that. My God. Anyway, there's some other stuff. We'll
32:42
Speaker 1: get to that.
32:43
Speaker 2: No merch thing, we'll push that back till later. We
32:45

Speaker 4: I think she's not so fine.
37:28
Speaker 1: I was gonna go, but I'm going to Oregon instead.
37:30
Speaker 1: I understand the priorities here.
37:32
Speaker 2: Well, the correct answer, it turns out, is Austin Davis
37:36
Speaker 2: for the Saint Louis Rams in twenty fourteen.
37:38
Speaker 1: Austin Davis. Sheenerika, here we go Mallard, how about that?
37:44
Speaker 6: To the third degree, this is one big Ben gets grilled.
37:51
Speaker 1: Hey we go cool.
37:54
Speaker 5: Last week, you successfully predicted that Marvin Harrison Junior would
37:56
Speaker 5: get a touchdown. Now, right after the game, he said
38:00
Speaker 5: that it was quote good to see one go through
38:01
Speaker 5: the hoop. Ben, Do you think last week's performance will
38:04
Speaker 5: jump start a turnaround to his season?
38:06
Speaker 1: No, I don't.
38:07
Speaker 2: It's a one off because he played terribly in the
38:09
Speaker 2: first half. He played well in the second half, and
38:11
Speaker 2: that's the key thing to start him. We've learned that
38:13
Speaker 2: from watching our sports. But just in life in general,
38:15
Speaker 2: it's not about how much talent you have. It's about
38:17
Speaker 2: dependability and consistency of performance, and he has not shown dependability.
38:22
Speaker 2: He has not shown consistency. And it's not even two games,
38:26
Speaker 2: is not He's gonna have to.
38:27
Speaker 1: Do it every week.
38:28
Speaker 2: You gotta be consistent, and I have not seen that
38:30
Speaker 2: from Marvin Harrison Junior yet. So I'm not expecting that
38:33
Speaker 2: all of a sudden to turn around for the Cardinals,
38:35
Speaker 2: especially with Alligator Arms Murray as the quarterback.
38:38
Speaker 5: Next, there are some speculating that the Dolphins could raise
38:42
Speaker 5: the white flag on this season after Tyreek Hill in
38:44
Speaker 5: Tyreek Hill's injury and could even shop around von A
38:47
Speaker 5: chain Ben. Do you think Miami will go full fire sale, No,
38:51
Speaker 5: because they don't.
38:52
Speaker 2: Do that other than the Browns. It's not like, you know,
38:55
Speaker 2: nobody's untouchable. They'll make some trades, things will be marked
38:58
Speaker 2: down there, but they're not gonna have a bom on
39:00
Speaker 2: fire out on the beach in Miami and say, all right,
39:03
Speaker 2: this is burned the entire thing down. So that's not
39:05
Speaker 2: gonna happen, and they should win. This weekend, the Dolphins
39:09
Speaker 2: play Carolina, so there you go. There, they win that game,
39:12
Speaker 2: and you're always kind of a fringe wildcard contender at
39:14
Speaker 2: that point.
39:15
Speaker 5: Next, Pooka Nakua has started the season off on a
39:18
Speaker 5: historic pace and would shatter receiving records if he keeps
39:21
Speaker 5: it up. He had at a decent game last night.
39:24
Speaker 1: Had ten catches.
39:25
Speaker 5: Yeah, Ben, this pace will be hard to maintain. But
39:27
Speaker 5: do you think we can call Nakua the best wide
39:29
Speaker 5: receiver in the NFL?
39:31
Speaker 2: Absolutely cool, because, as you know, the term best means
39:33
Speaker 2: as good as all the rest, so he is as
39:35
Speaker 2: good as any other receiver in the NFL. More importantly,
39:37
Speaker 2: he's the number one receiver on the La Rams.
39:41
Speaker 1: Pooka Nakua. I love the guy.
39:43
Speaker 2: I can't believe he was draft from the fifth round
39:45
Speaker 2: and it proves nobody knows anything in the NFL draft.
39:48
Speaker 2: And I don't know why he will watch the draft.
39:49
Speaker 2: It's all bull craft. If Pooka Nakua can be drafted
39:52
Speaker 2: in the fifth round or whatever, it's ridiculous.
39:54
Speaker 1: The guy's a total stud.
39:55
Speaker 2: Love the guy. He's a great player, and I don't
39:58
Speaker 2: know how he ended up with the Rams, but it's
40:00
Speaker 2: I'm happy that he did. But yeah, he's as good
40:02
Speaker 2: as anyone else in the NFL.
40:03
Speaker 1: How do we do you pass this edition? I hated
40:06
Speaker 1: the week with a win. I Won, I'm a
