  Speaker 1: headlines there and staying controversial. Is that the magic formula that?
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: We'll talk about that and is there a deeper meaning
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: to Brown's coach Kevin Stefanski not commenting on the success
• 0:45

• 3:11
  Speaker 1: And you don't really take the Patriots seriously unless they're
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: involved in a scandal. So now we have to take
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: them seriously because there's a scant. That's the way it works.
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: I didn't make the rules. Those are the rules we enter.
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: Raheem Morris, the coach of Atlanta, not for long. The
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: Falcon's head coach, Raheem Morris, who raised a few eyebrows
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: at a What was he saying over there? Yeah, he
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: cried foul. The Falcon coach was upset after a one
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: point loss. Atlanta was matriculating the ball down the field
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: in Foxborough on Sunday, and they were moving the ball.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: They were close to field goal range, they were at midfield.
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: There was a couple of minutes to go in the game,
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: and the claim is the Patriots simulated the snap count
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: that the claim you, I don't if you saw this
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: or not. I guess it's been talked about according to
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: some of the emails I got from you guys that
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: listening on the sports up in Boston. It's been talked
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: about a lot there. I would imagine it would be.
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: I don't know, they just been talked about much outside
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: of there. It seems like a pretty good story to me.
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: And so if you didn't see it, Morris says the
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: Patriots defense clapped and tricked the center to prematurely snap
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: the ball, which led to the quarterback Michael Pennox Junior,
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: rather frazzled to then get rid of the ball early,
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: and he was penalized for intentional grounding on that particular play,
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: which meant a loss of down and a bunch of
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: yards that were lost. It was insurmountable for the Falcons
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: to come back, and they ended up losing the game.
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: Here's Rhyhee Morris, though some of the comments he made
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: about the situation take a list.
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: They did a nice job they stimulated a snap. The
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: ball came early. We was snapped early with the next snap.
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: That was when we got the intentional grounding. Nice job
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: by LS guys. Great situation to football, great play they
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: were clapping simulated on snap. Got to snap the ball enough.
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: That's what a ball snapped earlier, Mike, when he wasn't
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: ready for snap.
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: I sensed a bit of sarcasm in that. Just a
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: little bit. My sarcasm radar went off on that. Yeah,
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: And now Mike Rabel responded, he was asked, and it's
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: what we do media beat riders especially, it's like, did
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: you hear what he said? Did you hear what he said? So,
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: Mike Rabel was asked about the clap gate, the Cadence gate,
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: the Patriots coach. Patriots feeling pretty good about themselves. They're
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: in the number two seed in the AFC. Here's Mike
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: Rabel his response to the accusation being made by the
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: Falcons coach take as.
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: I don't think annoyed. I'm trying to not waste any
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: more time looking for anybody clapping. I don't see anything
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: certainly that wasn't anybody's intent, And I don't think that
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: we've ever coached at or talked about that.
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: Right, Well, the SoundBite was cut off early, but one
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: of the reporters named the player that clapped. Like the
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: reporters watched it and brought his name up and then
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: was like, oh boy, he was on the ropes, and uh,
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: it was great. All right. So anyway, it's a good
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: jumping off point. Let us discuss the question. Do you
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: think Mike Rabel's patriots intentionally clapped to mess with the
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: Falcon offense? Yes, Clapgate has it right. So I've got
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: nineteen eighties infomercial finger Licking and New York Times bestseller,
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: and we will combine all of these things together and
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: we are gonna make the Gobba goool. We're gonna make
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: the Gobba goool. Not a leadoff to answer the question,
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: do I think this was an intentional act by Mike
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: Rabel's patriots? I am nodding my head. Yes, I am
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: nodding my head yes on this. Now that's it. Let
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: us stop pretending, and I'm not saying you are, but
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: there's people on the media that did just go crazy
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: over this stuff. Let's not pretend this is like the
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: second coming of Watergate or something like that. It certainly
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: doesn't rise to the level of the cheating a he
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: does not rise to that. So, as I understand, there
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: is a rule. So if you look at the rule here,
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: there is a rule. But to my knowledge, there is
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: no individual rule that. See, you cannot clap. So I
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: fell down a rabbit hole. And unless I'm getting bad
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: information here, as I understand it, the rule in the
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: NFL is you cannot simulate the stapcount right, you cannot
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: do that. You can't yell hut hut or set or omaha, omaha,
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: oh my, you can't do that. Clapping I do not
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: believe is covered under that. I don't believe it is
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: now it is allowed. From what I read, this is
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: a loophole. It is a bit of a gray area,
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: the whole saga. If you're old enough, there was a
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: famous infomercial back in the nineteen eighties, Clap on, Clap
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: off the clapper. Just like that. My clap was not
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: that strong, and there's a mic in front of me.
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: But listen, players clap all the time. In fact, sometimes
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: when I have a really good segment, Koper Loop and
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: Lorena will stand up and clap in the studio it's
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: really just I'm touched. I'm touched when I It doesn't happen,
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: maybe more than once a week, but they'll stand up
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: and just start clapping. People clap, hype guys clap, right,
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: they clap. They do it every play. You get linebackers
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: jumping up and down, doing jumping jacks and all that stuff. Clapping, stomping, barking,
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: all of those things. It's ingrained in the DNA of football.
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: So if a clap, a strategically placed clap by the Patriots,
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: caused the Falcon Center to launch the ball early, that
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: doesn't seem like a Patriot problem. That seems like a
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: problem for the Atlanta Falcons that they're so fragile that's
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: set up that offense from the shotgun formation, that they're
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: so left up that this is their problem. It's kind
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: of like blaming the weather for the fumble, like you
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: know some losers do that they do. You're telling me
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: your center, your offensive line has such fragility that one
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: clap causes the whole house of cards to come tumbling down.
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: It's not that complicated. It's not you. You're supposed to
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: practice cadence discipline. They talk about it in the game
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: of football. And if a little bit of a clap
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: like that, I just dear that like that. I did
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: another clap if that causes this big a problem, but
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: that's on you. So I do think it was intentional.
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: I think Mike Rabel's team found a weak spot and
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: they waited till the perfect moment to exploit the weak spot.
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: They found a little bit of a gray area, and
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: the Falcons tripped over their their shoes, their own shoes, right,
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: just tripped over their own shoes and all that stuff.
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: Belichick now he's long gone, right, he's losing games. All
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: they did beat North Carolina, beat Syracuse, which I guess
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: is Syracuse, and that could either. But the New Zealand
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: now they're back. To me, this is a sign they
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: are back. You watch the NFL. Now, if the Patriots
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: keep winning, this will become more of an issue going forward.
• 10:05
  Speaker 4: Here.
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: They'll put some language in the rules committee no excess clapping. Yeah,
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: good luck enforcing that. Good luck enforcing that. Right, you're
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: gonna throw flags for enthusiasm now if they do it.
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: The NFL does do it right every once in a while,
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: and they legal clarify it. Until they clarify it clap clap,
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: the clapper, flap clap, and the Falcons got beaten by
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: a clap. Imagine how embarrassed. It's bad enough if you're
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: a Falcon fan and then to lose a game because
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: your center hert a clap and then snapped the ball
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: prematurely and then your quarterback panicked. I mean, this is
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: so stupid. It's like Avilian comedy act for the Atlanta Falcons.
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: And so it's not the Patriots are not the issue.
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: It's the Falcons is embarrassing, and it's the Atlanta Falcons
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: who have cornered the market within kind of lost. It's
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: the same old story snapgate, flop gate, twenty eight to
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: three gate in the Super Bowl. And it's like they're
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: a museum of self inflicted wounds. They really are, all right. Now,
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: furthermore to Dallas we go. How about them Cowboys. The
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: Cowboys got smacked around against the Cardinals in the Monday
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: night football game. It was a domination situation. How bad
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: of the Cowboys. They're so bad that Jacoby Brissett like
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: a ninja, slice them up on national television in an
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: island game. Now, the story here prior to that loss
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: Jerry Jones went on satellite radio with former Fox Sports
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: Radio Morning Guy, who, by the way, had no ratings
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: when he worked here, Stephen A. Smith, and said that
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: the Cowboys quote stay relevant because he stirs the pot.
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: He says, quote when he gets slow, I stir the
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna edit this the poop up. He says, that's
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: the quote. He's given similar quotes in the past. He's
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: not hiding it. The question for the panel of experts,
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: which you're a part of, Jerry Jones explaining the Cowboy
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: success is, he said, staying out in front and staying controversial,
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: is that really the magic? Is that the magic? So
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: that is after a couple of minutes of deliberation, that
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: is the abra cadabra. That is the hocus pocus. That
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: is the secret sauce is what that is? It's finger
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: licking good, finger licking good. Jerry Jones is the Colonel
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: Sanders of NFL ownership. He serves up the original recipe,
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: same recipe has been serving since the late eighties. Eleven
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: herbs and spices, one giant ego, one giant ego, and
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: you've got a little pinch of controversy, just a little
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: pinch of controversy, a dash of delusion, just a dash
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: the whole bucket, whole bucket of hype. And Jerry's running
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: the KFC in Dallas, the Crazy Football Circus, Crazy with
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: a K, the Crazy Football Circus. There Extra crispy is
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: you want, you want extra crispy, you can get extra
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: That defense is extra crispy. Man, are they bad? And
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: every year it is the most dependable thing we have.
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: If you're a fledgling talk shows, these are good jobs.
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: I hope you can get one someday as a sports
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: talk shows. They're fun jobs. And every year you know
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: that Jerry Jones is going to give you something that
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: he's got you. It's the same thing. The Cowboys go
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: out there with much optimism. This is the year of
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: the Cowboys, and they go out there and they get
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: put in the slow cooker and they're just marinating in
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: that slow cooker and they're clout farming on steroids is
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: what they're doing. And you've got other generational brands. You
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: look around, the Packers, the Steelers, the forty nine Ers
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: are generational brands and all that. Butarry Jones he's the
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: one unlike those other generational teams in the NFL. Jerry
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: is the one standing on the roof of the megaphone
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: and he's doing his thing, and any publicity is good publicity.
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: He's playing grab ass with Steven A in the box.
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: They put him on television. Of course they did. Why
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: wouldn't they. It's a naval gazing thing. Though he might
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: not have seen it because apparently if you have YouTube TV,
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: you're exed out on that because of a bunch of
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: people fighting over your money. The Cowboys don't just lose
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: games though, no, no, no, they trend. They got their ass
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: kicked by a backup quarterback and everyone's talking about them
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: and they're not talking about Jacoby Brissett. And so Jerry's
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: figured it out again. The eleven herbs and spices. He's
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: got the proprietary, proprietary blend, whether it's regional recipe or
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: extra crispy, and just stay messy and stay relevant. And
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: that's the way to go, all right. Last thing, we
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: go to Ohio where Dick and Dayton is the number
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: one Cleveland sports fan, and I know Spiccoli's like, well,
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: how are you bringing up this again? Okay, let's get storty.
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: So Kevin Stefanski was asked this week about his former
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: quarterback Joe Flacco, who had four hundred and seventy yards
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: passing and a gaggle of touchdowns against the Chicago Bears.
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: He just lit it up for the Bengals against Chicago.
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: And what did he say? He was asked for a comment,
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: and Kevin Stemanski did he a say, I'm very happy
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: for Joe Flacco. He was a great Cleveland Brown. I'm
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: happy that he's doing well in Cincinnati. B did he
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: say I'm bummed out that we don't have Joe Flacco anymore,
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: but I'm happy that he's doing well in Cincinnati or
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: see no comment? All right, pens down reveal answers reveal
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: answers the correct answer. He said no comment, no comment,
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: so see see question. Is there a deeper meaning to
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: Kevin Stefanski not commenting on a low hanging fruit question,
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: a real simple layup line question about Joe Flacco and
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: his success. So I am nodding my head. Yes, I
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: am nodding my head. Yes, there is more to this story.
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: There's a deeper meaning, And I will give you some
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: psychobabble if you want. I'm not in my yes, because
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: this is a break into corn. Now, you and I
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: both know from paying attention to this stuff that the
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: way business is done in that industry, you typically get
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: asked a t ball question, like any comment about Joe
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: Flacco passing for four hundred and seventy yards and four touchdowns.
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: What is the normal protocol? You do the polite thing.
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: You throw some niceties out, you say, Oh, I am
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: so happy for Joe Flacco. Oh my god, I love
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: Joe fuck out. I love it. The guy. He's a
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: great guy. He's a great dad, even though he's left
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: his family behind to play pro football in his forties.
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: He's such a good guy. Joe flackout. I just hope
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: he doesn't do well when we play him. That's it.
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: That's all you have to say. That's the New York
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: Times best selling Complete Idiots Guide to Coach Speak. That
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: is not what happened here. That is not what Kevin
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: Stefanski did. Instead, the plot thickens. Kevin Stefanski went radio silent,
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: radio silent, gave you old no comment, right witness protection,
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: no comment. And that tells me what. It tells me
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: that he's either mad that Flaco is traded or he's
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: mad where Flaco is traded, or all of the above,
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: all of the above, that it didn't seem like he
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: was the one behind the benching that that went from
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: management above him. So no comment is a comment. There's
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: there's a there there. When you say no comment, it
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: means I did not sign off on the trade. I
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: did not approve the trade of Cincinnati, And the guy's
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: making me look like a dope and I'm stuck with
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: his slop like Dylan Gabriel and Shadur Sanders is more
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: worried about his next post on X than he is
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: about playing football and all that stuff. So that's what
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: that means. And the Browns are the NFL's version of
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: a bad breakup playlist, is what they are. Every track
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: is about regret and envy and self sabotage. That's the Browns.
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: That's the Browns there and Joe Flacco over there balling. Now,
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: the Bengals did lose the game, not because Joe Flacco
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: balling in the Cincinnati offense and Kevin Stefanski we mentioned
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: this in a previous hour. He's been demoted. He's no
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: longer calling the place he was hired as an offensive guru,
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: and he has been demoted giving up the play calling,
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: which is normally what happens before you get fired. If
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: you don't believe me, asked the Tennessee Titans. Remember the
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: Tennessee Titans demoted their coach as the offensive play caller
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: and then eventually fired him. Callahan was fired as the coach.
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: So Flacco's killing it in terms of touchdown passes, and
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: he's not getting sacked that much and all that stuff.
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: And Stefanski's got a bunch of quarterbacks that are folded
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: up and ice cold, ice cold, and it's it's petty,
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: it's insecure. It's Cleveland Browns football in a nutshell, and
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: you can't even fake it. I'm happy he didn't. I'm
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: happy he didn't fake it. It wouldn't have been anything
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: that got on my radar. If Stefanski has said I'm
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: happy for Joe Flacco. I hope he continues to do well,
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: just not against us. He didn't say that, though he
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: said no comment. It is the Ben Mahler Show. We
• 19:36

• 21:33
  Speaker 1: the Falcon Center. I used to play center back in
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: high school. Oh, this guy's an expert. Hash Daddy, he says,
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: back in my day, and of course there isn't a
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: lot of noise unlike in the NFL. But I always
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: looked back to check if my quarterback was rapidly signaling
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: to hike the ball, or I would tap my uh
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: or I would tap my ear hole if I was
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: having trouble. Yeah, you know, he meant, you know the helm.
• 22:01
  Speaker 6: There's a hole in the helmet where your ear is.
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: Oh right, right, right, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, right, Hey cool.
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: You think John Moran's going to be traded to the Lakers.
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: I just get the vibe he's gonna end up with
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: the Lakers. I just have this feeling he's gonna end
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: up with the Lakers. I just get this vibe.
• 22:15
  Speaker 6: That's the first I've ever heard of that. Well, I
• 22:18
  Speaker 6: wouldn't I would maybe enjoy that.
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: Well, he's John Morant's not happy. He he got suspended
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: from malfeasance. Uh the other day John Morant against the Lakers.
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: Actually the game over the weekend that nobody watched because
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: it's early season NBA. But John Moran apparently was lolly
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: gagging around, he wasn't hustling, and he got suspended, got
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: into it with the coach of the Grizzlies. No, I
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: don't even know who the name of the coach of
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: the Grizzlies is. They keep changing coaches there. Anyway, John
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: Morant when he came back, he played in the game
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: last night, and he then had a hissy fit. After
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: the game. He pointed out that apparently the joy, the
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: joy that John Morant had in basketball's gone. We have
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: a little day of that. Audio is a little ardius.
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: This is John Morant, one of the highest paid players
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: in the NBA, one of the stars of the NBA,
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: who loves to play with real guns and fake guns.
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: And here's jam Ran in the coaching staff.
• 23:10
  Speaker 3: I want to talk about what happened Friday and Lama.
• 23:13
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I asked that question to them.
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: Huh, what about for you?
• 23:17
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I asked that question. You'll know the answer to that.
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: Do you feel like everything's been resolved?
• 23:24
  Speaker 5: Yeah? They told you that, right, Yeah?
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: From you?
• 23:29
  Speaker 7: Obviously they can't go and tell y'all something mindset.
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: Want to beat. Okay, like do you get the same
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: joy right now?
• 23:36
  Speaker 7: But we used to see it from them?
• 23:38
  Speaker 8: No?
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: Why not?
• 23:41
  Speaker 6: Mhmm?
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: What can be done to get it back?
• 23:46
  Speaker 9: Of course?
• 23:47
  Speaker 3: Do you think you have a good relationship with the franchise?
• 23:50
  Speaker 8: Yeah?
• 23:50
  Speaker 7: General, yeah, they told you all that, right, you probably
• 23:55
  Speaker 7: had a good relationship. I wouldn't talk to him about all.
• 23:58
  Speaker 7: So well, then you've got our convos over to you.
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: Even he regrets about the way you played on Friday
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: night in the second half, he said, what you thn
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: he regrets bout the way you played in the game.
• 24:08
  Speaker 10: I'm not talking about the.
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: Home wrong question.
• 24:11
  Speaker 7: Sound like a big.
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: Question, all right, So a couple of things on that.
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: The first thought is at the end there he never
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: answered the question because there's no answer. He literally was
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: dogging it on the court and he knows it. So
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: there's no that was a loaded question. There is no
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: answer by not by saying what he did, John Ran.
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: He answered the question. He confirmed the premise of the question.
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: So that's that. And then the sarcasm, Well they if
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: they said it they were, they wouldn't lie. Of course
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: they by all the time. The other thing too, I
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: don't know about your job. I don't know what you
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: do for a living, like listen to the radio show.
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: Like most people at work don't have joy every day,
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: Like we have great jobs. I work. I'm a wonderful job.
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: I'm a radio show. I want to have a er
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: show and was a kid. I got one. I'm on
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: a bunch of radio stations. You're blessed. I'm very lucky.
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: I don't come in here every day with joy. Lorena,
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: you're always pretty happy. But there are days, Right you've
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: been here a couple of years now, there are days
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: you come in here and you're like, oh man, thinks
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: are not perfect, but I gotta do the show whatever, right, Yeah,
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: I suppose there are days like that, and Coops the
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: same way. It's just that's life. You're not gonna have
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: joy every day. There's no no, no matter what your
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: job is. Now, as long as you have more good
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: days than bad days, that's it. But it just seems
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: like Ja Morant's it's gonna be traded. Who knows, Maybe
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: not the Lakers go to the Celtics. Whoever.
• 25:34
  Speaker 6: Anyway, So while I do like the way that Ja
• 25:37
  Speaker 6: Morant plays basketball, there's a butt there is. The butt
• 25:42
  Speaker 6: is that the Lakers already have the best backcourt in
• 25:44
  Speaker 6: the NBA, So I don't really need stops?
• 25:47
  Speaker 10: Are you?
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: Are you kidding me? You know he didn't. What happeneding
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: is Minnesota when Austin Reeves was out on Lake Minnetonka,
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: Well that was going anyway, Let's go to the falls,
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: Big balls Bob if I tease this hours ago, Hello

• 26:49
  Speaker 10: so there's.
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: More than one.
• 26:53
  Speaker 10: Yeah, a couple. So the other day you were talking
• 26:56
  Speaker 10: about putting a sandwich in the microwave, and my son
• 27:01
  Speaker 10: did that once. He put a burrito and just to
• 27:05
  Speaker 10: warm it up for seventeen minutes, almost burn the house down.
• 27:10
  Speaker 10: Have you ever seen it?
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: What time? Out of time? So I understand the mistake.
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: If you put it in for like two minutes, right,
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: seventeen minutes? What did he what it was?
• 27:22
  Speaker 5: He?
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: Did you go out and take a walk around the block.
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: What was anything needs to be microwave that long? What
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: was your son doing?
• 27:30
  Speaker 10: I guess I will try to burn the house doun.
• 27:33
  Speaker 10: Have you ever seen a microwave plate glowing bright red? Oh?
• 27:39
  Speaker 10: Like mold? It was molten. When when I heard that
• 27:44
  Speaker 10: story about the microwave, I brought back smoky memories, a.
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: Great, great family story just.
• 27:52
  Speaker 10: And I asked him every now and then if he
• 27:55
  Speaker 10: wants to warm up with burrito.
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, of course, you know, just in case you
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: should be working in a restaurant somewhere.
• 28:00
  Speaker 8: Is what do you do, right, just say, you know,
• 28:04
  Speaker 8: the Raiders or the Faders. This Allegiance Stadium here, whenever
• 28:10
  Speaker 8: a visiting team comes in, it's it's an opposing team's
• 28:16
  Speaker 8: you know stadium. Yeah, there were so many Chicago Bears
• 28:20
  Speaker 8: fans there, it was crazy.
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, what you should do if you want a
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: good investment, Bob is buy Raiders season tickets and then
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: just sell them on the secondary market. You'll make a killing.
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: They have the highest ticket prices on the secondary market,
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: the Raiders because everyone's ben there. Even with all the
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: people trash in Vegas and all the prices of parking
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: and all that soff, people are still going there for
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: the for the games.
• 28:43
  Speaker 10: Yeah, and have to refinance the house.
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: It's perfect because you go to Vegas and you're guaranteed
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: to win because the Raiders blow, and you can gamble
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: for the weekend and then go back home and you're
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: surrounded by your fans, your fellow fans if you were
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: a Bears fan and all that stuf. So anyway, all right, Bob, Well,

• 29:48
  Speaker 6: Apparently this you know, the whole microwave story.
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 29:53
  Speaker 6: I guess there was a promo that somehow ended up
• 29:56
  Speaker 6: playing on the network.
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: Well you were in charge of that isn't what I
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: think you We'll see. That's why she do, That's why
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: she called me. I have nothing to do with the promos.
• 30:04
  Speaker 4: I know.
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: She's like, did you save the whole rant about me
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: burning the micwave. I'm like, I'm like, no, I why
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: would I do that any way, So somebody went in
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: and pulled that rand. That's what That's what I thought.
• 30:15
  Speaker 6: But it turns out that during one of your monologues
• 30:19
  Speaker 6: that I did save a promo for you just you
• 30:21
  Speaker 6: just made a quick mention to it.
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, a reference. So yeah, yes, Loraine almost burned down.
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: So I got a text.
• 30:30
  Speaker 6: I was like, I just heard about you almost burning
• 30:33
  Speaker 6: down the studio during a promo and I was like,
• 30:36
  Speaker 6: you did what?
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: No, Lora got listen, I am such a hot woman.

  Speaker 1: I burned, almost burned the whole place down. Leave out
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: the part of a microwave. Just say that boom done.
• 30:44
  Speaker 6: But in this doing the research and finding out what
• 30:47
  Speaker 6: this was about, I did find out that way back
• 30:49
  Speaker 6: in the day, John Ramos also almost burned down the studio.
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: Great John Ramos now a high school coach, right.
• 30:55
  Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, baseball don't know, I don't know, but yeah,
• 31:00
  Speaker 6: he tried to similar to a Big Ball's Bobs story,
• 31:03
  Speaker 6: he tried to microwave something for like ten minutes.
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: It's unfortunate. Hey, Speaking of fir Stinger coaches, you see
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: Gottlieb Green Bay got smoked by Kansas last night, lost
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: by like forty, lost by like forty. Doug Sweaton, he
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: likes a sweats going. It's going well over. Yes, they're
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: only like five or six guys in the portal away
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: from winning. Uh, that's all the course that no one
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: is anyone in the portal going to Green Bay?
• 31:29
  Speaker 3: You know?
• 31:30
  Speaker 9: Is that?

  Speaker 1: north end. What's going on? Mark? Welcome?
• 31:35
  Speaker 10: Hey?
• 31:36
  Speaker 9: Ben So I also heard, I don't know how true
• 31:39
  Speaker 9: it is that the coach of the Falcons also complained
• 31:42
  Speaker 9: about the field conditions and that the fans were too loud.
• 31:46
  Speaker 9: What's next is is he gonna complain that the Patriots
• 31:50
  Speaker 9: and tell them that Pacermo sucks before they let him.
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well that always kills me, the guys that complain
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: about everything's got to be perfect. Do you see?
• 31:59
  Speaker 8: Was it?
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: George Kittle the forty nine ers said he wants every
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: stadium to have the same exact turf. No one can
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: have a different turf. It has to be exactly the same.
• 32:07

  Speaker 1: All right, well, let you go. No, I don't think

  Speaker 1: they're a great team. They've beaten bad teams, which is fine.

  Speaker 1: You're supposed to beat bad teams. It's it's kind of
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: like climbing up the ladder and it's like the first
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: step and you beat a bunch of bad teams. And
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: the Patriots have had the gift and really that Gerrod
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: Mayo is the star of this Patriot team. He sucks
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: so bad last year as coach of the Patriots that
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: they were rewarded with the schedule. Seriously, Girrod Mayo was
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: such a bad coach and they and they still and
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: it would have been even worse if they'd won that
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: last game against Buffalo Team MVP Grod Mayo. Yeah, that's
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: that's a good that's a good one. Thank you. That

• 34:40
  Speaker 1: not many, though they did beat the Paul Now they
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: beat the Eagles, that's a big time win. The Texans,
