  Speaker 1: you know, Maller, you're a king, but I really want
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: to hear about DraftKings. I said, you know what? You're right.

  Speaker 1: MALLER at DraftKings. The crown is yours. Before we get
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: to the meat of the MALLER monologue, I did want
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: to spend a couple of good minutes here. Well, really,
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: just like a minute. Have to mention this. Have to
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: mention this. A standing ovation from the MALLER militia to
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: the U.S. Open. Big shots there. I don't know any
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: of their names. Really true friends, though, to the third
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: shift America. Ben Shelton winning the... A match after 3.30
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: in the morning in New York City, just within the
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: last half hour or so, the match ended. That is
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: absolutely magnificent. Nobody who works 9 to 5 saw it live.
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: Those people got completely screwed. And I love it. I
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: love it. That was for us. That was for Creatures
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: of the Night. We don't get that very often. We
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: don't get that. We don't get these matches, any sporting events, really,
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: when we're on. And so I really want to thank
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: the U.S.
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: Open.
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: I think that was a ballsy move. Normally, they would
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: not allow that to happen because you've lost your television audience.
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: But they said, you know what? We need to give
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: Maller a bone. So let's give Maller a bone. And
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: they did. Thank you. While civilized, polite society was drooling
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: into their pillows, the nocturnal colonels, which you're part of now,
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: I'm the original nocturnal colonel. We were out there on patrol.
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: I want you to know every TV in the studio,
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: every TV here was on that tennis match. And so
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: thank you for. Remembering U.S. Open. I want to thank
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: you for remembering the overnight security guards, the truck drivers,
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: the longshoremen, the bakers, the insomniacs, the good guys and
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: the bad guys, the criminals and the cops, degenerate gamblers
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: and loyal Ben Maller Show listeners. People with insomnia. You
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: looked out for them roaming the nocturnal wilderness here. Forget primetime.
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: The U.S. Open tennis match won by a guy named
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: Ben finished on mallet time. What time is it? It's
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: mallet time is what it is. And so the U.S.
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: Open turning Arthur Ashe Stadium there in Queens into the
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: world's largest 24 hour Waffle House. All those elites in
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: New York, all those rich people in New York, the
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: Hamptons crowd that were out there watching this tennis match.
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: It's somewhere a tournament executive in the bowels of Arthur
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: Ashe Stadium. Said, forget the daytime people. Forget them. No, no, no.
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: It's all about the guy eating Funyuns at a Love's
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: truck stop. That's the person that we need to broadcast
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: our tennis match to. And so Shelton finished while the
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: Roosters finished. We're getting ready, right? They were clearing their throats,
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: the roosters around America there and all that. And there's
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: still people delivering newspapers. They were out about delivering newspapers,
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: warming up their arms and whatnot. So finally, a major
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: sporting event programmed really exclusively for the Malheur militia. So great.
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: It's U.S. Open. Wimbledon's got the strawberries and cream crowd.
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: They've got that there in England. But the U.S. Open.
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: looking out for the overnight workers. So bravo. Tremendous job there.
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: Sleep deprivation and bad decisions. Overnight radio. God bless America
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: and God bless the U.S. Open and a guy named Ben.
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: Ben Shelton, good job by you.
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: Now, now to the main event. To the main event.
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: The Mac attack is back. And if you're tired of
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: the story involving Michigan and Western Michigan, well, you're in
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: for some bad news here. The Mid-American Conference, better known
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: as the MAC, has formally appealed Western Michigan's bullcrap loss
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: to Michigan. They asked the NCAA Oversight Committee and College
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: Football Playoff to recognize Western Michigan as the actual winner.
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: So if you didn't see this, and perhaps you missed it,
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: the MAC Commissioner, the Honorable Dr. John Steinbrecher, I think
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: that's how you say his name. Anyway, he argued the
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: final second of was improperly restored, giving Michigan the opportunity
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: to complete the game-winning 47-yard Hail Mary. Does anyone disagree
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: that it was improperly added? I don't know. Anyone with
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: common sense would say it was obvious this was a
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: hose job by the Big Ten Replay Center. So Steinbrecher
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: says that replay officials failed to follow established protocol which
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: calls for using the broadcast programming feed clock when it
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: conflicts with the replay system clock. His conclusion, the person
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: running the MAC conference, he said, had the prescribed protocol
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: been followed, no additional play would have been awarded. Western
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: Michigan would have won the game 12-7. Now, the appeal
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: represents a dramatic, dramatic 180 here from the initial position.
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: Because the MAC initially accepted the Big Ten's explanation, and
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: you had the Western Michigan president This guy named Russ
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: and this other, the coach, the Lance Taylor guy, who
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: publicly said the result was what it was and they
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: wanted to move forward. Well, now the guy running the
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: Mac's like, not so fast, my friend. So that is
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: a good jumping off point. Let's discuss the question. Why
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: the U-turn? Why the crazy Ivan? Why the crazy Ivan
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: from the Mac conference here on Michigan being given extra
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: time to beat Western Michigan after initially accepting the So
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: I've got Panera Bread, this Bud's for you, and Weird Al.
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: And we will combine all of these things together, and
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: we are going to take a cat nap, which a
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: lot of those tennis people are going to have to
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: do later today. A little cat nap. All right, so
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: first of all, to answer the question why, Because finally,
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: somebody in this story from the Mac grew some balls
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: and a spine. That's why. Right. And hilariously, it was
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: not it was not Western Michigan. It was the conference headquarters.
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: They're the ones the Mac conference actually grew. The Mac
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: just pants Western Michigan's own leadership. If I was in
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: a position, I would oust the president of Western Michigan.
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: I would have him removed for malfeasance for what he
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: did here, my opinion. You can't sue me for my opinion.
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: They care more about the MAAC conference, Broncos football there,
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: than the actual president of the university does. How embarrassing
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: is that?
• 9:37
  Speaker 4: Right.
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: Your players just had this historic upset vaporized. Western Michigan
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: had their upset when vaporized and the administration surrendered faster
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: than the military over there in France.
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: Moving trucks already packed up. All right. Well, we lost
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: the game. Let's get out of here. It's all over.
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: The school's president responded like you would respond. if somebody
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: effed up your order at Panera Bread. Oh, they didn't
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: put enough bread in there. Oh, that sucks. I got
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: to go back. All right, fine. And the guy running
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: Western Michigan, the president, said, well, there's nowhere to appeal,
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: is what he said. The Mac said... Watch me, dummy,
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: is what they said. And so Western Michigan treated the
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: Big Ten's explanation kind of like you and I would
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: treat terms and conditions on your iPhone. You know how
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: you get the iPhone and I got to scroll, accept,
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: click the thing, move on. That's it. That's what Western
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: Michigan did. They literally got pickpocketed, the Western Michigan football team,
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: in not broad daylight because the game was at night,
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: but they got pickpocketed. And then they complimented the thief.
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: They said, you know what? Really good technique on the pickpocket.
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: Really good technique on there. We thank you for that.
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: So the program should have immediately said, we're going to
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: lawyer up. No justice, no peace for Western Michigan. And instead,
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: they gave this fortune cookie bull crap reading about adversity.
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: And you had Lance Taylor, the coach at Western Michigan,
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: who was like reading messages off inspirational posters about life
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: isn't fair and all that. And I was like, well,
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: that's wonderful. Your job is not teaching acceptance five minutes
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: after getting hosed. OK, your job at that moment is
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: to raise holy hell. That's your job. So complete breakdown
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: of leadership for Western Michigan in this situation. It's nice
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: to see somebody again grew a pair from the MAC
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: conference and is willing to fight this. Now, the other
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: question is keeping the theme going here. The question is,
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: what chances does the MAAC have of getting the NCAA
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: to overturn the victory for Michigan and award the win
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: to Western Michigan? So what are the chances? So the
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: chances are slim and none at this particular point. And
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: slim has made it through TSA and is currently headed
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: to the gate to board the plane off to Bora Bora. Now,
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: here's why. We looked this up, and from what I
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: was able to find, based on a minutes-long deliberation of
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: the available information, the NCAA essentially gave a classic, this
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: Bud's for you response to the MAAC conference. Ergo, breaking
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: out the old baseball commissioner Bud Selig, the shoulder shrug, muttering,
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: what do you want me to do? What do you want?
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: I don't know what to do. I don't know what
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: to do. They claim the FBS Oversight Committee lacks the
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: authority to overturn a game result, pointing out that the
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: NCAA's own bylaws contain no formal mechanism to alter a
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: final score. Now, I'm a little confused by that. I
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: recall when I was younger and maybe they've changed the rules,
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: but haven't there been games voided? And seasons voided in
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: college football and college basketball because of using illegal players
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: or some kind of shenanigans where they just nobody, they
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: took the role of it. So if you can't give
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: Western Michigan the win, couldn't you not give Michigan the win?
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: Meaning you just void the game. Why is that not
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: an option? They claim there's no mechanism, they say. And
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: as a result of all this, they say the final
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: score will say the same. But the mystery is, The
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: second clock thing is fascinating to me. It has become
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: college football's grassy knoll in many ways. They've been playing
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: college football for, what, 150 years in America? On American soil,
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: 150 years of college football. And they managed to play
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: it that entire time with the belief there was one clock.
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: My entire life, I watched a lot of college football.
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: We don't talk much about it on the show because
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: the NFL's king, but... Nonetheless, a lot of college football.
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: I've never seen a game, not with Notre Dame, not
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: with USC or Alabama or anybody that had two clocks.
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: I've never seen that before. They played the game for
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: 150 years with one clock. And now, I guess we're getting, what,
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: the director's cut of college football, right? Featuring the stadium clock,
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: the TV clock, and the Big Ten deluxe premium clock,
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: depending if a Big Ten team's trailing. It's available exclusively.
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: in the Big Ten Replay Center when they need it
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: with your paid conference subscription, you can get that. It's crazy.
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: It's like the Kennedy assassination. Was there a second shooter?
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: Was it only one person? Let's go to the library
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: tower and try to find out. All right, final thought
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: to the Valley of Death. Always a fun place to go. Well,
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: it's actually called Death Valley, but it's more fun to
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: say the Valley of the Death because Clemson coach Dabo Sweeney,
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: good old Dabo Sweeney, He's not happy. Yeah, he's definitely
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: not happy. He bristled when a beat reporter, a Clemson
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: beat reporter, questioned his roster construction. This after the Tigers
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: were disemboweled in their matchup with LSU, losing by 41 points,
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: giving up almost 700 yards of offense to LSU. The
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: worst loss in Dabo Sweeney's 18 seasons. Now, Dabo Sweeney
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: called the reporter, the beat reporter, a, quote, gotcha guy,
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: saying he's the gotcha guy, accusing him of trying to
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: create all the controversy around the Clemson football program. Now,
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: Dabo said he regrets only being 0-1 and argued that
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: one game is too early to judge the roster. Bullcrap! Yeah,
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: he said, what if we go 11-1, Dabo said. The
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: exchange escalated, and this is the part which... led us
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: to bring this up in the Malheur monologue. So Dabo
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: Sweeney challenging the reporter by saying, did you play football?
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: Such a loser line. You've lost the argument when you
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: use that line. When you use that line, you've lost
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: the argument. So the question, thumbs up or thumbs down?
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: Thumbs up, thumbs down. Was Clemson coach Dabo Sweeney out
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: of line calling the reporter a gotcha guy? So I'm
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: going to go thumbs up on this. He was out
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: of line. It made for great audio, and we don't
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: have it, of course, because I don't know what the
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: editors do all day. But I'm giving it a thumbs up.
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: So Dabo Sweeney is drowning at the dais, right? And
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: now he's yelling at the lifeguard tower, and he's yelling
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: at the lifeguard. He said, listen. why can't you swim
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: over here? What's going on? I don't know how to
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: swim and you're not helping me. What's going on? The
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: LSU game was the test. That was the placement test.
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: They had all off season. They'd circled that game. This
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: is the game that's going to show people Clemson football's back.
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: We're back, baby. They went out there and were crushed
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: like a snail. Game was over at halftime. Game was
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: over at halftime. That was a placement test. Clemson football
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: under Dabo Sweeney got every single question wrong. They even
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: misspelled their own name on the test. They even misspelled
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: their own name on the test. Dabo spent years treating
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: the transfer portal like radioactive waste, right? It was like,
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: I don't want any part of that transfer portal. And
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: now the roster actually glows in the dark, which is appropriate.
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: And so this was not a gotcha question. It was
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: literally and figuratively the job of the beat reporter for
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: Clemson football. I don't know who this guy is, neither
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: do you, but good job by him, right? And so
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: how do we know Dabo knows all of this, like
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: what he's saying? He pulled the classic, did you play
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: football line? All right, so when a coach... Or somebody
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: in sports says, did you play blank sport? In this case, football.
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: You know what that is? That is a DG situation.
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: Dead giveaway. That is a dead giveaway. The absolute last
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: refuge of a coach getting cooked at his own news
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: conference is to say, well, did you play football? And
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: then if the reporter says, well, I played high school. Well,
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: this is college football. This is different. This is different.
• 18:43
  Speaker 5: So.
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: The bottom line, sport has changed, obviously, and Dabo did
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: not change. He has not. And it would be fine
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: if they were winning. They are not winning, which is
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: problematic here. So Clemson did not all of a sudden collapse.
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: The Clemson football program did not collapse overnight. Dabo let
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: the termites eat the foundation down to the bedrock there
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: and then blamed the home inspector for Rather, even though
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: he knew the termites were there for several years, and
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: he just let the termites eat, and that's what happens.
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: And so now Clemson is what? Clemson football is living
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: off its reputation, kind of like weird Al Yankovic, like
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: the washed-up casino person selling autographs next to the buffet,
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: and you're like, oh, man, that guy used to be somebody.
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: Now they've got a little pop-up card table, and it's
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: charging like, $ 50 for an autograph and a photo. Oh,
• 19:40

• 22:11
  Speaker 1: for you coming up in a bit. And back to
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: it we go. Got to pay off the Mallor riddle
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: of the day. Yankee infielder Jazz Chisholm Jr. recently went
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: viral at the U.S. Open for wearing a gray T-shirt
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: emblazoned with the words blank. Got to fill in the
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: blank here. That is the question. What is the answer? Femi,
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: the Uber Eats driver from Minnesota, said, the aliens are here. Alf,
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: the alien opiner, said, the bird is the word. Oh,
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: it's a tribute to Eddie Garcia. The bird is the word.
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: Look at that. Very nice. Western Michigan One from Analog Al,
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: the words, we got the jazz, from Keith Ocho Texto,
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: a veggie shirt guessed by Donkey Sausage. Manford sucks from
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: Inca terror. I like that. Dante went with the classic
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: bite me on the shirt. Joe, the ghost hunter. Good
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: to see Joe again. He's back on the show again.
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: He said, it said, uh, I seen the ghost of
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: Babe Ruth and all I got was this lousy shirt.
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: Timmy from bus go. Indiana says he was wearing a t-shirt, uh,
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: that said expert ball handler, he said. He's got a
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: little tennis ball there from Timmy. Allergy, the shirt said allergy,
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: according to Michael. What else do we have? Page down.
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: I can't read that. Courtesy Flesher says the official Ben
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: Maller T-shirt. Mad Jack, the legend Mad Jack, who made
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: his way to Vegas. It was so great to meet
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: Mad Jack. He says, I brush Andrew Luck's neckbeard. Was
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: the shirt.
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: Ew.
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: He had a four-leaf clover and a lucky ducky on
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: his T-shirt from Mike the Leprechaun. That's his answer. Saturday
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: night main event. Fill her up, Phil. That's what he said.
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: Little Chemtrail says good guy. I think that's what he said.
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: Maybe that's what he meant. I don't know. Anyway, all right,
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: here we go. Lorena Mallard, riddle of the day. Yankee
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: infielder Jazz Chisholm Jr. went viral at the U.S. Open
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: this week for wearing a gray T-shirt emblazoned with the
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: words blank.
• 24:23
  Speaker 3: Single.
• 24:24
  Speaker 7: And ready to mingle.
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: Well, kind of the opposite. The T-shirt emblazoned with the words,
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: I am a virgin. That is the phrase right there.
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: We're pretty sure not a virgin. We're pretty sure not
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: a virgin. But he did have that on. The other
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: thing that he did is he wore a Yankee cap. Now,
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: there is a rule in the professional athlete community. You
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: do not wear team gear outside of work. That's your
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: work uniform. And most professional athletes will never wear their
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: team merch outside of the stadium they play in. It's
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: just always been the way, since I've been around professional sports,
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: that's how they've always operated. Just don't wear the stuff.
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: And anytime somebody does wear their team merch outside of
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: said environment, they get goofed on. I think Russell Wilson
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: used to do this with the Seahawks every once in
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: a while. I remember him wearing some Seahawks stuff and
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: was like, what are you doing, Russ? What are you doing?
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: What are you doing? Anyway, it is the Ben Malishaw.
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: I think we'll have line one play the game. Let's
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: go to the phones, though. It says on line four
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: is EGOT. I don't know who that is.
• 25:38
  Speaker 7: I'm not sure either.
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: Let's find out. I know. Brandon has a very interesting
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: technique with screening the calls. I don't really know. Hello, caller.
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: You're on the air, caller. Hello.
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: Hello.
• 25:48
  Speaker 5: This is E-Dog.
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: Oh, see, I thought that's.
• 25:51
  Speaker 7: What he probably meant.
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: Well, why would, how do you get, oh, let me
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: check my, E-Got from E-Dog. How does one get E-Got
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: from E-Dog?
• 26:00
  Speaker 8: You must be a rookie.
• 26:03
  Speaker 7: Maybe you were mumbling. Do you mumble often?
• 26:05
  Speaker 6: Yeah, it's actually when I didn't get my hot dog shot.
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: Huh? Your what?
• 26:10
  Speaker 6: Huh?
• 26:11
  Speaker 3: I usually get a hot dog shot.
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: What are you talking about?
• 26:16
  Speaker 5: My medication.
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: Usually when I take my medication, I'm good. Oh, okay.
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: Because depending on the context, that could mean something much different.
• 26:25
  Speaker 8: Now I got a question for Lorena, if I may.
• 26:28
  Speaker 6: Can I talk to her for a second?
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: Why don't you wait for the Queen of Hearts is
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: coming up. How about that? We'll have you on for that.
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: That'd be good, right? All right. Hold on a sec. EGOT.
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: That's a really great name. I like this. We're trying
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: to guess who the callers are, even though they've been screened.
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: Here's another name I don't recognize. Mo Jack Jr. This
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: is so great. Mo Jack Jr. in Seattle. Who could
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: this be?
• 26:59
  Speaker 6: Hello.
• 26:59
  Speaker 8: You're out of line, Benny Radios.
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: Who is this? What is your name, sir?
• 27:04
  Speaker 8: My name is No Job Jr. You know what it is, man.
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: Oh, it is. He actually got that one right. He
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: got that one right. There you go. All right.
• 27:11
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 27:12
  Speaker 8: My name is No Job, man.
• 27:14
  Speaker 3: Come on.
• 27:14
  Speaker 8: This is a return of the Northwest Best Gameplay Prognosticator
• 27:18
  Speaker 8: and Pontificator.
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: You disappeared. You haven't called the show in forever. What
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: are you talking about?
• 27:24
  Speaker 8: Jason, hey, I came back for you, Benny Radio.
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: You sure about that? Yeah. Where have you been? Where
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: have you been? You haven't called in like a year
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: at least.
• 27:34
  Speaker 8: Something like that. No, I think the last time I
• 27:36
  Speaker 8: talked to you was the bubble in the NBA.
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: Okay. Six years. You haven't called in six years. What
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: have you, did you just get released?
• 27:47
  Speaker 8: No, man.
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: I was on the radio.
• 27:50
  Speaker 8: Just now and I heard you talking about the Seahawks
• 27:52
  Speaker 8: going to lose tomorrow. Sam Darnold going to have a,
• 27:55
  Speaker 8: what do you think a moment?
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: This is what happened. It was a fluke what happened
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: last year with Darnold, and he'll regress back to the
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: Sam Darnold we all know and love, Mr. Inconsistent. Listen,
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: I'm just the messenger. You don't have to be yelling
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: at me, Mojack.
• 28:11
  Speaker 8: No, okay. Listen, that's your what-do-you-think moment right there, Benny Radio.
• 28:17
  Speaker 8: I mean, come on. You know what's going to happen
• 28:19
  Speaker 8: tomorrow after the game? They're going to be calling the
• 28:21
  Speaker 8: QB for the rats. Drake may not.
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying?
• 28:25
  Speaker 8: Because he will be turned over all the time.
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: Listen, your secondary is so bad, you're signing guys facing
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: life in prison. Things are not going well for the
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: Seahawks defense.
• 28:35
  Speaker 8: And we'll let everything shake out. We'll just let it
• 28:38
  Speaker 8: shake out. I'm going to tell you this.
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: Well, you let it shake out. You don't sign the
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: guy even though he's on the commissioner's exempt list. You did.
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: That tells you everything you need to know. They didn't
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: let it settle out. They didn't wait. They were like, well,
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: maybe this guy will get lucky and he'll pay off
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: somebody and get out of trouble. So they were like, well,
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: let's have this guy.
• 28:55
  Speaker 8: If we're going to call it luck by winning the
• 28:56
  Speaker 8: Super Bowl and come back to the next one this year, listen, tomorrow,
• 29:00
  Speaker 8: this is what's going to happen. Spoon is going to
• 29:02
  Speaker 8: get a turnover, maybe by fumble recovery, maybe by interception.
• 29:06
  Speaker 8: We're going to see Jadarian make anybody pay the price
• 29:09
  Speaker 8: to think that we missed Walker. He's going to get 80.
• 29:12
  Speaker 8: And the final score is going to be 25-20. You
• 29:14
  Speaker 8: heard it here first.
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: All right, well, listen, Mojack, so I'll talk to you
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: in six years, Mojack Jr.? Is that what's going to happen?
• 29:21
  Speaker 8: I'll call you tomorrow. That was my preview prediction.
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: All right, you know what? You're not going to call me,
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: and I'll tell you why you're not going to call me,
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: because the Patriots are going to cover the spread, and
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: they'll win the bet, and you're not going to call
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: me because your phone will stop working because you'll be
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: so disheveled because of the outcome of the game.
• 29:38
  Speaker 8: Listen, they don't have the screen. in Seattle that put
• 29:41
  Speaker 8: the field goal uprights in funny old ways. Look, we're
• 29:44
  Speaker 8: not getting jobs, and that's what it is on my call.
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: I got you. Well, thank you, Mojack Jr. Look at that.
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: I hadn't talked to him since the bubble in Disneyland there.
• 29:53
  Speaker 5: All right.
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: Got that one right. Got it right. All right, let's
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: play the game right now. I don't have the questions.
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: I can't play the game. I just realized, without the questions,
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: it makes the game very difficult to play. And Brandon
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: has left his post, so I don't know. What's that? Oh,
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: he's making a new one?
• 30:14
  Speaker 7: Yeah, he was making that new update for Dan Byer.
• 30:16
  Speaker 3: Oh.
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: But he's going.
• 30:17
  Speaker 4: To give you that, is it too much or not enough?
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: All right, well, let me introduce my contestant real quick here.
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: We must get to the game. We have limited time.
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: Do you want me to hit the button? Yeah, hit
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: the button. Send that over here, Brandon. You can text
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: it to me if you want or whatever. All right,
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: let's welcome in our contestant. He's sleepless in Minnesota, Hollering James. Hello,
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: Hollering James. I think Seattle's going to be sleepless in Seattle,
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: and they're going to get beat. Ah! You're not here.
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: You're not here for that content. All right, my man.
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: What are you doing? What's wrong with you? How dare you?
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: What am I doing? I'm listening to the Ben Baller show.
• 30:54
  Speaker 8: We got the radio turned down.
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: All right, here we go. James, you played the most
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: famous game show we've ever done. You were fast asleep,
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: and you won too much or not enough. Can you win?
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: I know you've played since then, but can you win
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: while you're actually awake? Here we go, James. Are you ready?
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: I'll try. Okay. We don't want trying. We want winners.
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: There were 12 quarterbacks that had a better completion percentage
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: than Baker Mayfield last season. Is that too much or
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: not enough? Too much. All right. Let's find out. Look
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: at that. You got it right, you little rascal.
• 31:33
  Speaker 6: Unbelievable.
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: Too much.
• 31:34
  Speaker 6: No, I got it right.
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: I'm a little rat.
• 31:38
  Speaker 7: No, rascal.
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: I said rascal, which is much different than a rat.
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: Tenth incompletion percentage. Baker was tenth incompletion percentage. Somebody left a...
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: Did you just fart?
• 31:49
  Speaker 7: What was that?
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: James?
• 31:52
  Speaker 3: Right here.
• 31:54
  Speaker 8: I'm breathing.
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: Sounded like you farted. All right. Question. You did. Okay.
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: Question two. Eat a lot of garlic yesterday. There are
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: five tight ends that had more touchdowns than Dallas Goddard
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: last season. Is that too much or not enough?
• 32:09
  Speaker 2: I'll say too much.
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: Let's find out. That is correct. Goddard was tied for
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: first in touchdowns for tight ends last season. Question number three.
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: Luka Doncic has 13,000 points scored since the start of 2020,
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: the pandemic season. Is that too much or not enough?
• 32:30
  Speaker 8: Not enough.
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: Let's find out. Not wrong. Too much. Luka's first in
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: points scored... With 12,654, not 13,000. All right. Two and one.
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: You need this last one, question four, to win. Here
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: we go, James. Hollering James. The Dodgers have scored 45
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: runs over their last 10 games. Is that too much
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: or not enough?
• 32:53
  Speaker 3: Too much.
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: Let's find out. James, you got the first two right.
• 33:01
