3:07
Speaker 1: know you want it. You want your daily dose. We're
3:10
Speaker 1: gonna give you your daily dose.
3:11
Speaker 2: What is it?
3:12
Speaker 1: And now it's what that is?
3:14
Speaker 2: All right?
3:14
Speaker 1: So our lead this hour is from the Bella Checkian
3:19
Speaker 1: Drama Rama, your obligatory daily Mallard monologue update on the
3:25
Speaker 1: North Carolina football coach as Bill Belichick in Chapel Hill,
3:30
Speaker 1: North Carolina. The book tour continues to motor on. Among
3:34
Speaker 1: the latest developments, we pay attention, so you don't have to.
3:41
Speaker 1: On Bill Belichick's appearance, he did an interview with doctor
3:46
Speaker 1: David Chow, who's a very good interview Doctor Chow. I
3:52
Speaker 1: think I had him on my podcast. Either I did
3:54
Speaker 1: or I was supposed to have him on the podcast.
3:56
Speaker 1: I think I had him on. I don't remember. We
3:58
Speaker 1: had a lot of people on. I think I had him.
4:00
Speaker 1: I know, Alf will go back and check. But the
4:01
Speaker 1: Fifth Hour podcast, which will be coming up later today,
4:04
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure I had him at some point on
4:07
Speaker 1: the pod.
4:07
Speaker 2: Anyway. The former Charger team doctor was asked.
4:13
Speaker 1: He did it with Belichick, and he asked Belichick now
4:15
Speaker 1: he asked, but Belichick was asked not about Jordaan Hudson,
4:20
Speaker 1: but instead this old story about Pam Anderson, who last
4:25
Speaker 1: was a total like Babe Magnet, like early two thousands,
4:30
Speaker 1: early two thousands.
4:31
Speaker 2: I think maybe I don't know.
4:33
Speaker 1: Anyway, So that took place, and Belichick answered the question. Fine, whatever,
4:38
Speaker 1: But after the awkward Sibiez interview in which Jordaan Jordan
4:45
Speaker 1: interrupted to say Bill Belichick would not speak about how
4:49
Speaker 1: they met Belichick, it appears it's just barred the question.
4:54
Speaker 2: I'm not going there.
4:55
Speaker 1: We're not talking about that now later today, later today today,
5:00
Speaker 1: Bill Belichick.
5:01
Speaker 2: Is gonna sit down with New York Giant.
5:05
Speaker 1: Hall of Famer turned talking head smile chuckle, daytime pretty
5:11
Speaker 1: boy guy Michael Strahan on Good Morning America.
5:15
Speaker 2: So that'll be later this morning.
5:18
Speaker 1: We anticipate that'll be softball city. We think that'll be
5:22
Speaker 1: extra fluffy, and they'll tell some old stories.
5:25
Speaker 2: About going against each other, and Belichick.
5:28
Speaker 1: Will make a joke about how he couldn't beat the
5:30
Speaker 1: Giants in those two Super Bowls with Michael Strahan and
5:33
Speaker 1: go to the whole thing. But if you didn't hear
5:36
Speaker 1: the other news, though, I think the other news is
5:38
Speaker 1: more interesting.
5:39
Speaker 2: And maybe you missed it.
5:41
Speaker 1: We have also learned that the Bill Belichick book is
5:47
Speaker 1: not a dud. In fact, what if I told you
5:51
Speaker 1: that it is a success. Is it true that Bill
5:57
Speaker 1: Belichick's book The Art of Winning Lessons from a Life
6:01
Speaker 1: in Football debuted.
6:04
Speaker 2: At number five, number.
6:09
Speaker 1: Five on the New York Times Best Seller List. I'm
6:12
Speaker 1: told that's still important. I'm told that's still a big deal.
6:16
Speaker 2: Now.
6:16
Speaker 1: The book just came out back on May sixth, As
6:19
Speaker 1: we're doing the show in real time, it has been
6:21
Speaker 1: out for ten days, so book's been out for ten
6:24
Speaker 1: days and is already a New York Times bestseller.
6:28
Speaker 2: And let us discuss the question what if any? What
6:33
Speaker 2: if any is the.
6:34
Speaker 1: Lesson from Bill Belichick's book being a New York Times bestseller.
6:39
Speaker 2: So I have WC.
6:41
Speaker 1: Fields, Sweet Baby, Rays, and food Chain and we will
6:47
Speaker 1: combine all of these things together and we are gonna
6:52
Speaker 1: make a delicious birthday cake with extra frosting on it.
6:56
Speaker 1: And the key to a cake is the frosting. And
6:59
Speaker 1: if somebody says it's notting, that's a bad person. They
7:02
Speaker 1: don't understand cake, and they don't understand the cake the
7:04
Speaker 1: frosting ratio. So my first thought on this Bill Belichick
7:09
Speaker 1: having a best selling book, after everything that's gone on here,
7:12
Speaker 1: this is a bleeping master class on marketing. Okay, master
7:18
Speaker 1: class on marketing. Bill Belichick wrote, from most accounts, a
7:23
Speaker 1: rather generic, blah self help book. You know what, the
7:28
Speaker 1: self help books are out there a ton. You know
7:32
Speaker 1: how many people read self help books? A lot of people,
7:34
Speaker 1: but a lot of them do not get read either
7:36
Speaker 1: because people are there's too many of them.
7:38
Speaker 2: The art of winning and Belichick, who stirred up a
7:41
Speaker 2: absolute hornet's nest in our world a hornets nest of
7:45
Speaker 2: controversy with the viral.
7:48
Speaker 1: Romance old man, young woman, a woman young enough to
7:52
Speaker 1: be his granddaughter, some would say his great granddaughter.
7:55
Speaker 2: Depending on when he started having kids.
7:57
Speaker 1: But tremendous strategic timing by Bill Belichick and taking advantage
8:03
Speaker 1: of the public's fascination with tabloid.
8:09
Speaker 3: Covers as a DJ back in the day. But we
8:12
Speaker 3: are continuing our in depth team covers and is it true?
8:18
Speaker 3: Is it true that a Bill Belichick Malard monologue was
8:21
Speaker 3: interrupted by gremlins? But not not let the record show,
8:26
Speaker 3: not gremlins that attack the mobile studio of the Ben
8:31
Speaker 3: Mahler Show. No, no, no, the mothership taken down by gremlins. Now,
8:37
Speaker 3: the question is what were those of the giant sized
8:40
Speaker 3: cockroaches that made their way into the room that has
8:44
Speaker 3: all the satellite hookups and all that craft. I don't know.
8:48
Speaker 3: I'm sure there will be a full Mallor show investigation
8:52
Speaker 3: to get to the bottom of it. But let me
8:54
Speaker 3: just point out for the records that the broadcast line
8:57
Speaker 3: from the remote studio that we use is one hundred
9:01
Speaker 3: percent good. This is at the Mothership. It it's gone down.
9:04
Speaker 3: But I was rudely interrupted, and you know, I put
9:07
Speaker 3: these notes together for these stupid Malard monologue, and I'm
9:10
Speaker 3: gonna do the malord monologue. I'm gonna do it. We're
9:13
Speaker 3: gonna do the mal monologue. And that's the way it's
9:16
Speaker 3: gonna be. So the I asked the question, I don't
9:19
Speaker 3: know how much of this you heard. I have no idea.
9:20
Speaker 3: I just kept talking. And there's nothing better than when
9:23
Speaker 3: you're talking and you get a text after you've been
9:26
Speaker 3: doing a monologue and and you're not on the air,
9:29
Speaker 3: you know something like that. You know, well, I don't
9:31
Speaker 3: know what am I doing anyway. So the question I
9:35
Speaker 3: asked to you was, what is the lesson from Bill
9:39
Speaker 3: Belichick's book being the New York Times bestseller and all that?
9:42
Speaker 3: I pointed out it was like a masterclass, right, It
9:44
Speaker 3: was not a word I used, a masterclass because of
9:47
Speaker 3: the tabloid stuff and my favorite part of the story,
9:52
Speaker 3: it's a New York Times bestseller, Belichick's book, and how
9:55
Speaker 3: many people are buying this book thinking they are gonna
10:00
Speaker 3: yet Bill Belichick to give salacious details about his tawdry
10:04
Speaker 3: behavior and all that. And there's a great quote one
10:08
Speaker 3: of my favorite people to quote all time. There's this guy,
10:13
Speaker 3: early Hollywood guy named W. C. Fields. He was a comedian.
10:18
Speaker 3: He's like one of the early actors in Hollywood, and
10:20
Speaker 3: there's actually a street named after him near Universal Studios
10:23
Speaker 3: in Hollywood, which is, you know, he's been dead for
10:26
Speaker 3: a long time. But this quote applies to the Bill
10:28
Speaker 3: Belichick book story, because what has happened here is Belichick
10:34
Speaker 3: going around with Jordaan Hudson and all that and the ligne.
10:38
Speaker 3: You can fool some of the people some of the time,
10:41
Speaker 3: and that's enough to make a decent living. So by
10:44
Speaker 3: going around this whole big tabloid story about Bill Belichick,
10:47
Speaker 3: this that and the other thing with Jordan Hudson and
10:51
Speaker 3: idiots like me who have been promoting this and going
10:54
Speaker 3: on and on, well it ends up Belichick who is
10:57
Speaker 3: with a major publisher, a massive publisher, and he ends
11:02
Speaker 3: up getting a New York Times bestseller. So it all
11:06
Speaker 3: works out. Now, the second thing that I was going
11:08
Speaker 3: to rant about, and you listen to our live in
11:10
Speaker 3: depth team coverage, I think it sounds great. I think
11:14
Speaker 3: it sounds f and brilliant, is what I think. So
11:16
Speaker 3: I wanted to mention it. And we're gonna talk about
11:18
Speaker 3: this earlier and I was interrupted. So in Boston, I'm
11:21
Speaker 3: looking around at baseball. It's still the feeling out process.
11:25
Speaker 3: You normally wait until the end of May to kind
11:29
Speaker 3: of figure out who's good and who's bad and all that.
11:32
Speaker 3: So we're still in that part of the schedule. We're
11:35
Speaker 3: not quite there yet. And there's an interesting story developing
11:41
Speaker 3: in Boston as one of the big free agent pickups
11:45
Speaker 3: a couple of years ago, one of the big free
11:48
Speaker 3: agent pickups has been not only a baseball player, has
11:51
Speaker 3: been absolutely horrible. And I wanted to discuss that. Is
11:55
Speaker 3: there any advice that we have, any advice that we
11:59
Speaker 3: have we are baseball people, any advice on how the
12:03
Speaker 3: Red Sox should handle the struggles of Trevor's story. Who's
12:08
Speaker 3: a not only is he a shortstop, he's horrible. He's
12:13
Speaker 3: absolutely horrible this season. In terms of players that got
12:16
Speaker 3: the big contracts over the last couple of years, Trevor
12:19
Speaker 3: Story is near the very bottom in every possible category.
12:23
Speaker 3: He actually played alright for like a week or two
12:25
Speaker 3: to begin the year, but a seasoned veteran Trevor Story
12:30
Speaker 3: at this point is unplayable. He's so bad it should
12:34
Speaker 3: be a short story is what it should be. Now,
12:38
Speaker 3: what is my evidence on that? Trevor Story is batting
12:42
Speaker 3: since what is it April twenty second, So that's almost
12:46
Speaker 3: twenty games. He's batting one fifteen and his ops that's
12:52
Speaker 3: on base plus lugging is three point thirty two. Now again,
12:58
Speaker 3: I just do the Overnight Show here and gremlins attack
13:01
Speaker 3: the mothership. However, I don't think that's particularly the good.
13:06
Speaker 3: I'm pretty sure that's not what you're looking for. And
13:08
Speaker 3: to make matters even worse, the defensive prowess and Trevor
13:13
Speaker 3: Story was thought of as one of the better defensive players.
13:16
Speaker 3: He's had a bunch of injuries, and according to the
13:18
Speaker 3: nerd stats, Trevor Story's defensive range has gone down, down, down, down,
13:24
Speaker 3: down down down down down down down down down down down.
13:26
Speaker 3: Now the nerds say that he is trending towards the
13:31
Speaker 3: worst defensive season he's had. He's been in the major
13:35
Speaker 3: leagues for ten years, so he's a fully vested veteran
13:38
Speaker 3: in the Major League Baseball pension program. And he's not
13:42
Speaker 3: a bad on offense, he's bad on defense. But wait,
13:45
Speaker 3: there's more. Now, the reason I'm bringing all this up,
13:48
Speaker 3: not that I just want to sit there and talk
13:51
Speaker 3: about Trevor Story. He's signed a one hundred and forty
13:53
Speaker 3: million dollar contract before the twenty twenty two season, and
13:58
Speaker 3: he's under contract at least until the end of twenty
14:01
Speaker 3: twenty seven. And he said, well, it's still a couple
14:03
Speaker 3: of years away, and the Red Sox will decide they
14:07
Speaker 3: have a club option and all that stuff, but he's
14:09
Speaker 3: guaranteed Trevor Story, who at this moment, we do the
14:11
Speaker 3: show today and Trevor Trevor Story can't play, and so
14:17
Speaker 3: he's all but guaranteed to exercise that player option for
14:20
Speaker 3: twenty twenty six. Now, my recommendation is one thing people
14:24
Speaker 3: in baseball need is my recommendation on The Ben Mather Show,
14:28
Speaker 3: the show that must go on no matter what happens.
14:32
Speaker 3: So my recommendation is to get a gallon of sweet
14:37
Speaker 3: Baby raised barbecue sauce. And the reason the Red Sox
14:40
Speaker 3: should get a gallon of sweet Baby raised barbecue sauce
14:43
Speaker 3: is because there is zero choice, zero choice but to
14:47
Speaker 3: designate Trevor Story for assignment, which is a politically correct,
14:51
Speaker 3: polite way to say you're fired, right, And the barbecue
14:56
Speaker 3: sauce will come in handy for the Red Sox. And
14:58
Speaker 3: here's why, because when they have to eat more than
15:01
Speaker 3: fifty million dollars remaining on his contract, they can pour
15:06
Speaker 3: that barbecue sauce all over it, and they can chop
15:10
Speaker 3: it up into little bite sized pieces and all that.
15:12
Speaker 3: And from what I've been reading, the Red Sox have
15:16
Speaker 3: another can't miss minor league player, a prospect who was
15:19
Speaker 3: a suspect until proven otherwise, Marcello Meyer who's in Triple
15:24
Speaker 3: A and supposedly tearing the cover off the baseball. He's
15:27
Speaker 3: a shortstop, so they could put him out there. Why not?
15:32
Speaker 3: And my final thought, my final thought on this as
15:36
Speaker 3: so we await the gremlins to stop attacking the Mothership,
15:41
Speaker 3: not my remote studio, the Mothership, but the Rockets, the
15:45
Speaker 3: Roquets who were exterminated, eliminated from the postseason by the
15:50
Speaker 3: Golden State Warris. The Rockets are said to be open
15:53
Speaker 3: to trading the star of their playoff run, Alfred Shengon
15:59
Speaker 3: a deal for buck Star Giannis a Dent Tokuombo. Believe
16:04
Speaker 3: it or not. Believe it or not, these Rockets are
16:07
Speaker 3: said to be open to trading Alfred Shengoon in a
16:11
Speaker 3: trade for Gyiannis and dent to Koombo. So I am
16:15
Speaker 3: a follower of the doctrine on this. It makes sense.
16:18
Speaker 3: You would have to be a country pumpkin not to
16:23
Speaker 3: sign off on that deal. Now you're gonna throw in
16:26
Speaker 3: a bunch of scratching tickets if your Houston, but you
16:29
Speaker 3: would have to be the village idiot for that to man.
16:33
Speaker 3: If you look at the food chain in the NBA,
16:36
Speaker 3: Yannis is still a top ten player. He's still a
16:40
Speaker 3: top five player in the NBA. And Alfred Schnjun well,
16:45
Speaker 3: he was good and we were impressed, and we had
16:46
Speaker 3: a lot of Insta trivia, a lot of who had
16:49
Speaker 3: my games on Alfred Shgoon. He is a middling on
16:53
Speaker 3: the border between star player and upper second tier, Like
16:59
Speaker 3: is he a star? Is he a superstar? He's certainly
17:02
Speaker 3: not anywhere close to the zip code the zip code
17:08
Speaker 3: that Yannis a dent to Koombo finds himself in. But
17:12
Speaker 3: he is twenty two, so he's got that going for
17:14
Speaker 3: him and the amount of drafticks. This is not going
17:18
Speaker 3: to be a Luca Hukah Luca let's give this player
17:21
Speaker 3: away situation. So he's still trying to write his story
17:25
Speaker 3: right his resume and certainly not box office. Not box office. Now.
17:32
Speaker 3: On the other hand, Jannis again to Kombo, is all
17:36
Speaker 3: that and a jumbo size fry. All that and a
17:39
Speaker 3: jumbo size fry. He's a risk worth taking. At the
17:45
Speaker 3: risk is he's right at the midway point there is
17:48
Speaker 3: in his early thirties. So how much longer is he
17:53
Speaker 3: going to be a top five player in the NBA?
17:55
Speaker 3: Are you okay with him as a top ten player,
17:57
Speaker 3: then a top fifteen player, then he's a top twenty player.
18:01
Speaker 3: And Yannis's resume is also going to suck the oxygen
18:05
Speaker 3: out of the rooms. Any fragility with the Rockets locker room.
18:12
Speaker 3: You know how this still works, the mental part of it.
18:14
Speaker 3: It's going to be ugly, and Alfred Schenghun would be
18:17
Speaker 3: just one of the building blocks going back to Milwaukee
18:21
Speaker 3: in that trade. It is the Ben Maler Show. As
18:24
Speaker 3: they say in show business, the show must go on
18:26
Speaker 3: as we await the broadcast line to pick up, and
18:30
Speaker 3: then we'll get back to the normal.
18:31
Speaker 4: Sound that you've come to know and loves on the
18:34
Speaker 4: overnight show, and we will take calls. Yeah, we'll take
18:39
Speaker 4: some cut here if you would like to be Part
18:41
Speaker 4: eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox. And if this
18:46
Speaker 4: does not improve, Loraina, we'll be doing the Malin monologue
18:48
Speaker 4: next hour.
18:50

Speaker 1: backfired because the Calves were eliminated in the NBA plus.
21:50
Speaker 1: But Dan Gilbert's five hundred thousand dollars investment in blank
21:54
Speaker 1: backfired because the Calves were eliminated from the postseason. That
21:58
Speaker 1: is the Mallord riddle of the day. And what is
22:01
Speaker 1: the answer? Ferg Dog says, Mega man for the Nintendo
22:06
Speaker 1: Entertainment System, which I was playing during that Mallard monologue.
22:10

Speaker 1: Booger building competition. Stevie Meatball says, a five hundred thousand
22:29
Speaker 1: dollars investment in a Cleveland Loser stew restaurant. Will that

22:47
Speaker 2: Is the answer.
22:49
Speaker 1: Alf the alien ol Pier says he had a failed
22:52
Speaker 1: investment in Bob's Big Boy. Wow, that's a great photo.
22:58
Speaker 1: All these old gotta be AI. But all these old
23:01
Speaker 1: Bob Big Boy statues? Who else do we have a
23:03
Speaker 1: half million dollars in red solo cups for the championship party?
23:09
Speaker 1: So he says mister irrigation again, saying invested in Don
23:15
Speaker 1: Lemon's television career.
23:17
Speaker 2: According to mister irrigation.
23:19
Speaker 1: Ike in Roseville, Minnesota says the Calves owner invested in
23:25
Speaker 1: Rock and Roll Hall of Fame hoodies is the answer,
23:28
Speaker 1: Fat Daddy right since says a five hundred thousand dollars
23:32
Speaker 1: investment in Dick and Dayton's banned World tour hookers and
23:37
Speaker 1: cocaine from Johnny Q.
23:39
Speaker 2: I think that's what he meant.
23:40
Speaker 1: Brian says Sacramento Sacramento Athletics pitching Chris Brian, as you know,
23:46
Speaker 1: they're not the Sacramento Athletics. They're so embarrassed they're in Sacramento.
23:50
Speaker 1: They're just the athletics.
23:51
Speaker 2: One of the.
23:52
Speaker 1: Dumbest things in my life is that the local political
23:57
Speaker 1: hacks and Sacramento, which are terrible, allowed that that Major
24:01
Speaker 1: League Baseball signed off on that.
24:03
Speaker 2: Like, what are you doing? How stupid? Are you? Seriously?
24:08
Speaker 2: All right? What else do we have? Page down? I
24:11
Speaker 2: can't read that? All right? Lorena? Do you have an answer? Lorraina.
24:15
Speaker 1: It's the Mallord riddle of the day, The Mallord riddle
24:19
Speaker 1: of the day. As the owner Dan gilbert five hundred
24:22
Speaker 1: thousand dollars investment in blank backfired as the Cavs were
24:26
Speaker 1: eliminated from the NBA playoffs, that's the riddle.
24:31
Speaker 2: What's the answer? Yeah, his investment in Charlie's commodes. Charlie's commodes?
24:36
Speaker 2: Is that the answer? Yeah?
24:40
Speaker 4: No?
24:41
Speaker 3: Wrong.
24:42
Speaker 1: We are told that the Cleveland Cavaliers owner Dan Gilbert
24:45
Speaker 1: spent five hundred thousand dollars investing in fake snow machine
24:51
Speaker 1: planning a confetti celebration. So they install these snow machines
25:01
Speaker 1: to use for a cavalanche when the team goes on
25:05
Speaker 1: a scoring run. They use them in the postseason one time,
25:11
Speaker 1: one five hundred thousand dollars for one use.
25:16
Speaker 2: Of the snow machines. So if anybody wants a snow machine,
25:19
Speaker 2: you can get one. Now. I don't feel bad for
25:22
Speaker 2: Dan Gilbert.
25:23
Speaker 1: And the reason I don't feel bad for Dan Gilbert
25:26
Speaker 1: is because Dan Gilbert has the kind of fu money
25:29
Speaker 1: where he can flush away five hundred thousand.
25:32
Speaker 2: He is worth twenty three billion, Dan Gilbert. So when
25:37
Speaker 2: you're worth twenty three billion, eh, you know your financial
25:41
Speaker 2: mogul and all that stuff, you can get rid of me.
25:43
Speaker 2: He's the eighty eighth richest person in the world. Number
25:49
Speaker 2: eighty eight, number eighty eight. Anyway, it is the Ben
25:52
Speaker 2: Valley eighty eight.
25:54
Speaker 1: Oh there you go, right there, absolutely absolutely all right,
26:00
Speaker 1: very nice. Sledgehammer says, Ham Radio made a glorious splashy

26:14
Speaker 1: Kelly in des Mooin. Hello, Kelly, welcome.
26:18
Speaker 6: Hi'm Ben.
26:19
Speaker 3: What's good.
26:21
Speaker 1: Well, we're doing a talk show and I'm talking and
26:24
Speaker 1: then yeah more, and then I'll talk again, and then
26:27
Speaker 1: I'll then I'll stop talking and then I'll do the
26:30
Speaker 1: podcast and I'll start talking again.
26:32
Speaker 6: And yeah, all right, I got I got two things, okay.
26:36
Speaker 6: Number one, Okay, what's the more annoying dad story, the
26:40
Speaker 6: Caleb Williams or the Halliburton dad.
26:46
Speaker 2: Well, they're both annoying. I'm gonna go go under the head.
26:50
Speaker 2: I will take Caleb Williams dad under the head.
26:53
Speaker 3: Yeah okay.
26:54
Speaker 6: And then also, we're having a couple of dispute on
26:59
Speaker 6: something as we are both Sonics fans at heart.
27:03
Speaker 1: Now you have to announce the whole I say, you
27:05
Speaker 1: have to announce that we this is the one of
27:07
Speaker 1: the great power couples.
27:08
Speaker 2: They met because of our friend. You've got, yes, you've.
27:10
Speaker 6: Got the reason we are together.
27:12
Speaker 1: Yes see that Larna, we're spreading love. The Ben Mahler
27:16
Speaker 1: Show is spreading love here? Well we do here, Ben.
27:19
Speaker 2: Yeah.
27:20
Speaker 1: So Kelly who used to be Donut Kelly in another
27:23
Speaker 1: life she was Donut Kelly in Nashville, and Shanon de
27:26
Speaker 1: Moine and they're together, and so there's a there's a dispute,
27:29
Speaker 1: and what better way to figure out the answer to
27:31
Speaker 1: dispute than calling the shows? So, okay, what's the disco?
27:34
Speaker 6: So we were both Sonics fans at heart, and I
27:40
Speaker 6: became an Okay Sea fan when they moved, but he
27:44
Speaker 6: just let go of basketball completely and didn't support Okay see.
27:50
Speaker 2: Yeah, So the debate is that who's right. You're right,
27:54
Speaker 2: he's right.
27:54
Speaker 3: Is that the correct?
27:55
Speaker 5: Yes?
27:56
Speaker 6: Like, is it okay that I became an Okay Sea
27:59
Speaker 6: fan because I considered them the Sonics or he was like, no,
28:04
Speaker 6: they stole the Sonics were done.
28:07
Speaker 1: Yeah, so I would lean more towards his side, Shannon
28:12
Speaker 1: Moye because.
28:13
Speaker 2: When when But it's just it's a little different because
28:15
Speaker 2: you didn't live in Neither one of you live in
28:17
Speaker 2: Seattle anymore.
28:18
Speaker 6: I I mean I did when, I mean until I
28:21
Speaker 6: was eighteen.
28:22
Speaker 3: But yeah, ok yeah, but like the.
28:24
Speaker 1: Team, when you live in a different city, it's it's
28:28
Speaker 1: a little bit of a different animal. But when teams
28:31
Speaker 1: that I like have, like the only one that really
28:33
Speaker 1: left was the Rams, I was a Ram fan, and
28:35
Speaker 1: then when they went to Saint Louis, I stopped.
28:38
Speaker 2: I didn't watch the Rams. I didn't.
28:40
Speaker 1: I mean I watched them occasionally, but I didn't care
28:41
Speaker 1: whether they want or not.
28:42
Speaker 6: They weren't the team.
28:44
Speaker 5: See.
28:45
Speaker 6: My thing is that when they went to Okay see
28:48
Speaker 6: it was still all the same players that I was
28:50
Speaker 6: fans of, Like Durant was there, you know, it was
28:52
Speaker 6: those were my players.
28:55
Speaker 2: It's not Seattle's team, though.
28:57
Speaker 1: I did see a story I actually thought of Shane
29:00
Speaker 1: in the morning, and I guess indirectly you there's a
29:04
Speaker 1: in Seattle right near the arena there.
29:09
Speaker 2: There's a.
29:11
Speaker 6: Used to be called Is that what we're talking about?
29:13
Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, well yeah, Climate Pledge Arena or whatever. Yeah, yeah,
29:19
Speaker 1: there's a there's a like a warehouse. There's twenty warehouse
29:23
Speaker 1: shelves with five thousand pieces of memorabilia from the Seattle
29:29
Speaker 1: SuperSonics that they left behind in Seattle.
29:33
Speaker 2: And yeah, it's got like it's got everything.
29:35
Speaker 1: There's a there's only three items on I was reading
29:37
Speaker 1: these stories on the Front Office Sports at the story
29:40
Speaker 1: they the seventy nine Larry O'Brien trophy and a pair
29:43
Speaker 1: of size twenty practice shoes and a pennant and everything
29:47
Speaker 1: else though is kind of everything else is kind of hidden,
29:51
Speaker 1: hidden away, But the five thousand pieces.
29:54
Speaker 2: Of memorabilea just sitting there.
29:55
Speaker 1: And at some point if the Sonics come back, you well.
29:59
Speaker 6: It's gonna amazing basketball city. Like we love the Sonics,
30:02
Speaker 6: Like my dad has season tickets growing up, Like I mean,
30:05
Speaker 6: that's like it's yeah, I don't know.
30:08
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I think in the next five or six
30:10
Speaker 1: years there'll be at least an announcement that the Sonics
30:13
Speaker 1: will be coming back.
30:14
Speaker 6: And then, well, I mean you were talking about the
30:16
Speaker 6: whole you know, with Phill Night and the Blazers and stuff,
30:19
Speaker 6: and I was kind of wondering if somehow, you know,
30:23
Speaker 6: they just moved to Seattle. But I don't know.
30:27
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's possible if Phil Knight says he's not going
30:29
Speaker 1: to buy the team.
30:30
Speaker 2: At least that's what he's saying. Now, we'll see if
30:31
Speaker 2: he changes his mind. He is eighty seven. When you
30:34
Speaker 2: get to eighty seven, you got other priorities when you're
30:35
Speaker 2: eighty seven. All right, I gotta go. Okay, thank you, Kelly.

30:46
Speaker 1: Like, if you're in Montreal listening to us, are you
30:47
