- 0:31Speaker 1: ecided should Raider fans be with Clint Koubiatack coming to Vegas?
- 0:36Speaker 1: He confirmed it postgame he will be the next head
- 0:39Speaker 1: coach of the Raiders. And also, what did you make
- 0:42Speaker 1: of the rather large audience? It'll be millions of people
- 0:45Speaker 1: who tuned out of the halftime show with Bad Bunny
- 0:48Speaker 1: to watch the alternative halftime show. We will discuss that
- 0:53Speaker 1: and more. Right now, settle in. It's our number two

- 2:39Speaker 1: story This hour, we continue our all night coverage of
- 2:43Speaker 1: some football game they played in Northern California, and we
- 2:46Speaker 1: turn our attention to the Most Valuable Player Award, the Seahawks,
- 2:50Speaker 1: the winner. They take down the Patriots, and so they
- 2:54Speaker 1: get that piece of metal, as the Baseball Commissioner calls
- 2:57Speaker 1: these championship trophies, the point of consternation, though, the point
- 3:02Speaker 1: of consternation for many, the MVP Award. Did you see
- 3:06Speaker 1: who won it? Did you hear who won the MVP Award?
- 3:08Speaker 1: Maybe not? Maybe you were not paying attention. You fell asleep.
- 3:11Speaker 1: The game was so boring. Well, it wasn't a defensive player,
- 3:16Speaker 1: although the defense was credited by many of carrying Seattle,
- 3:19Speaker 1: carrying the Seattle team to the victory tent. Instead, it
- 3:26Speaker 1: was Kenneth Walker who once again was the true engine
- 3:32Speaker 1: of the offense. He had one hundred and thirty five
- 3:34Speaker 1: yards added twenty six more, receiving third straight one hundred
- 3:38Speaker 1: yard game from scrimmage in the postseason, and in doing so,
- 3:41Speaker 1: Kenneth Walker of the Seahawks became the first running back
- 3:46Speaker 1: since Terrell Davis to get an MVP ward twenty eight
- 3:51Speaker 1: years ago TD for the Broncos, the last running back
- 3:54Speaker 1: to win an MVP Award, and that is a good
- 3:58Speaker 1: jumping off point. Then let us discuss the question are
- 4:02Speaker 1: you gonna go thumbs up or are you gonna go
- 4:04Speaker 1: thumbs down? Did voters get it right? Giving Seahawks running
- 4:10Speaker 1: back Kenneth Walker the Super Bowl sixty MVP trophy? Is
- 4:15Speaker 1: that the correct decision? So my observations, I've got root canal,
- 4:21Speaker 1: baby carousel and coordinated chaos, and we'll line these up
- 4:28Speaker 1: and go one, two, three and ABC. But number wa alright, alright,
- 4:40Speaker 1: so I'm gonna go thumb down, down, down, down, down,
- 4:44Speaker 1: down from way down on this one. Stop the music.
- 4:48Speaker 1: Kenneth Walker as your super Bowl MVP? Are we serious
- 4:52Speaker 1: that this is like the participation ribbon at Chuck E Cheese? Congratulations,
- 4:58Speaker 1: you're good at ski ball? Walker he had one hundred
- 5:02Speaker 1: and sixty one yards from scrimmage, which is not nothing. However,
- 5:07Speaker 1: you know what, he didn't have a touchdown. It was
- 5:11Speaker 1: zz top zip bo zero on the touchdown. So when
- 5:17Speaker 1: you look at that, a big fat doughnut, he's like,
- 5:21Speaker 1: whoa whoop beee. How can you be the Super Bowl
- 5:25Speaker 1: MVP If you're an offensive player and you didn't score,
- 5:31Speaker 1: in this case, a touchdown, you didn't cross the goal
- 5:33Speaker 1: line when your job is plositive to cross the goal line.
- 5:36Speaker 1: That's how bad Sam Donald was in this game that
- 5:38Speaker 1: he wasn't even the conversation and a guy that didn't
- 5:41Speaker 1: score a touchdown and Sam in this Kenneth Walker guy.
- 5:45Speaker 1: He ended up trumping Sam Donald and being the MVP.
- 5:49Speaker 1: So who should have gotten it? Who should have gotten it?
- 5:54Speaker 1: I jotted down on my scorecard as I was watching
- 5:57Speaker 1: the game. My vote went to all things the EAD
- 6:00Speaker 1: kicker Jason Myers. Five field goals, five of them by
- 6:05Speaker 1: Jason Myers. And that's the story of this Super Bowl.
- 6:09Speaker 1: It was such a zero Super Bowl that the kicker
- 6:12Speaker 1: should have been the MVP, not football to military operation.
- 6:16Speaker 1: Five field goals. The game was that special. It was
- 6:22Speaker 1: special like getting a root canal. And when the game
- 6:25Speaker 1: is that special, and this one was, you give the
- 6:29Speaker 1: trophy to an idiot kicker? Yeah but yeah, but yeah,
- 6:33Speaker 1: but yeah, but yeah, but you have it. Kickers should
- 6:34Speaker 1: never win the MVP. Yeah but yeah, but yeah, but
- 6:36Speaker 1: you have it. Who cares? Myers was the most dominant
- 6:40Speaker 1: weapon that in the punter on the field for the
- 6:43Speaker 1: Seahawks and Super Bowl sixty. No individual defensive player did
- 6:47Speaker 1: enough to warrant did enough to warrant defensive MVP honors,
- 6:52Speaker 1: So no quarterback sees the moment. We know that it
- 6:55Speaker 1: was a survival game and Myers was the life raft.
- 6:59Speaker 1: The voters blew They blew it. They should have given
- 7:02Speaker 1: it to the kicker. I know, it's shocking. What am
- 7:07Speaker 1: I doing? I believe that though Jason Myers should have
- 7:10Speaker 1: been the MVP, right, the voters blew it like a
- 7:13Speaker 1: leaf blower in a wind tunnel. Give the kicker his
- 7:17Speaker 1: flowers and that would have been perfect. This game was
- 7:20Speaker 1: so bad it deserved to have a kicker be the MVP.
- 7:23Speaker 1: It was so unentertaining that a kicker should have been
- 7:28Speaker 1: the MVP. All right. Meanwhile, to the announcement postgame, So, Seattle,
- 7:33Speaker 1: you have just won Super Bowl sixty. Congratulations The Seahawks
- 7:39Speaker 1: offensive coordinator Clint Kubiak confirming moments after the game, confirming
- 7:46Speaker 1: that he will be coaching another NFL team. Let's go
- 7:50Speaker 1: to the audio tape. Here's Clint Kubiak with the confirmation.
- 7:53Speaker 1: Take a listen. What does the future look like as
- 7:55Speaker 1: a head coach in this league for you? Because it's
- 7:57Speaker 1: gonna happen.
- 7:57Speaker 2: Yeah, that's up to gud and I'm we're gonna, we're
- 8:00Speaker 2: gonna enjoy tonight.
- 8:02Speaker 1: So no answers on the network.
- 8:03Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, you guys know, I'm going to Las Vegas.
- 8:06Speaker 2: I'm fired up about it. But well tonight one more
- 8:09Speaker 2: for one more night?
- 8:10Speaker 1: Hell yeah, I'm going, of course, I'm going.
- 8:12Speaker 3: Yeah, just confirm it right here?
- 8:14Speaker 1: Yeah? Okay? Was he stupid and we all knew it?
- 8:16Speaker 1: I mean, come on, what do you dumb? Anyway? Question u?
- 8:20Speaker 1: Kubiak said he was fired up about it. How excited
- 8:24Speaker 1: should the Raider fan base be with Clint Kubiak coming
- 8:28Speaker 1: to Vegas? All right, So let me start out by
- 8:31Speaker 1: saying that I have in my circle a bunch of
- 8:34Speaker 1: guys that are Raider fans that are in my circle.
- 8:38Speaker 1: And I see you, I understand. I know that you're
- 8:42Speaker 1: revving the engines up, you're polishing the eye patches, you're
- 8:45Speaker 1: getting fired up, right, But if you keep it real
- 8:48Speaker 1: here at this point, if you're a real Raider fan,
- 8:52Speaker 1: you have to be emotionally numb. You have to be
- 8:55Speaker 1: emotionally numb. You haven't. If you're not, you haven't paying attention.
- 9:01Speaker 1: There has been a conga line, dude, the conga of
- 9:04Speaker 1: coaches that have come through the Raiders, and they've only
- 9:06Speaker 1: been in Vegas a short time in comparison, and you're
- 9:10Speaker 1: being sold a bill of goods wrapped in a vintage
- 9:13Speaker 1: nineteen eighties starter jacket, back when the Raiders actually mattered
- 9:17Speaker 1: and they were relevant. And here comes another guy getting
- 9:21Speaker 1: on the job training Clint Kubiak, the latest offensive guru.
- 9:26Speaker 1: I say that in air quotes, the latest offensive guru
- 9:29Speaker 1: to grace the desert. So let's call it what it is.
- 9:32Speaker 1: The NFL's got this, this pathway to becoming a head coach,
- 9:37Speaker 1: and a lot of it goes through Las Vegas. They're
- 9:40Speaker 1: no different at this point than the Browns of the Jets.
- 9:43Speaker 1: They've been so bad for so long. They're very similar.
- 9:45Speaker 1: It's like the NFL's version of a golden ticket. You
- 9:48Speaker 1: got a golden ticket. You got a golden ticket. And
- 9:50Speaker 1: while you're working for your paycheck, you know, most of
- 9:54Speaker 1: us are out there doing your thing, trying to as
- 9:56Speaker 1: a coach. You're trying to earn your way up. A
- 9:57Speaker 1: guy like Clint Kobiak was born with the playbook in
- 10:00Speaker 1: his crib. And it's another one of these situations. The
- 10:04Speaker 1: ultimate coaching cheat code, as we like to say, the
- 10:06Speaker 1: NEPO baby carousel, the NEPO baby carousel and the NFL.
- 10:10Speaker 1: The easiest path to the headset isn't through putting your
- 10:15Speaker 1: work in in the film room. It's through the birth certificate.
- 10:19Speaker 1: It's not a meritocracy when it comes to coaching. It's
- 10:23Speaker 1: a family dynasty. And Kubiak is the latest next gen
- 10:30Speaker 1: see'd there, Yeah, next gen model off the assembly line.
- 10:34Speaker 1: He's unproven as a head coach. He's untested, and he's
- 10:37Speaker 1: riding the slipstream of his father's legacy and having to
- 10:42Speaker 1: be in Seattle and a good defensive team and Sam
- 10:46Speaker 1: Donold who led the NFL in turnovers under the tutelage
- 10:50Speaker 1: of Kubiak, and now he gets to take that and
- 10:53Speaker 1: leap frog to the head coaching ranks. The Raiders. I
- 10:56Speaker 1: do not believe the Raiders are hiring a behavior. I
- 11:01Speaker 1: believe they are participating in the NFL's program involving coaches, sons.
- 11:08Speaker 1: It's high stakes musical chairs and the music never seems
- 11:13Speaker 1: to stop for the right last names, and did the
- 11:18Speaker 1: music it just it just kind of rose around and
- 11:20Speaker 1: they put these guys in there, and he's like, well,
- 11:23Speaker 1: this guy he had but so and so he's related
- 11:25Speaker 1: to this guy and he's next in line. And that's
- 11:29Speaker 1: just how they do it in the NFL. Right now,
- 11:31Speaker 1: final point to the halftime show. The halftime show, I
- 11:38Speaker 1: put it on mute. I went and got some snacks,
- 11:42Speaker 1: That's what I did. And there was a lot of
- 11:45Speaker 1: people very upset with the halftime show. I didn't really
- 11:48Speaker 1: pay much attention to it at all, but I guess
- 11:50Speaker 1: Bad Bunny was. I'm more of a fan of Bugs Bunny,
- 11:54Speaker 1: but Bad Bad Bunny was out there doing his thing whatever,
- 11:57Speaker 1: and people very upset. He had trashed America in the
- 12:01Speaker 1: weeks and months leading up to the super Bowl, and
- 12:03Speaker 1: it turns out that that didn't pay that there was
- 12:06Speaker 1: a price to pay for that, and it's not a
- 12:08Speaker 1: small price. Over six million. One report indicated over six
- 12:13Speaker 1: million people were watching an alternative halftime show, and it
- 12:18Speaker 1: was actually more than that. It was actually probably millions
- 12:21Speaker 1: more than that by the time they get the final numbers.
- 12:23Speaker 1: So a bunch of people that boycotted Bad Bunnies halftime
- 12:26Speaker 1: show to watch the Kid Rock All American halftime show.
- 12:31Speaker 1: I didn't even know what channel that was on either.
- 12:33Speaker 1: They watched that instead. So the question, what did you
- 12:38Speaker 1: make of what appears to be a rather large audience
- 12:41Speaker 1: who decided to stick it to Bad Bunny and leave
- 12:44Speaker 1: the NFL halftime production and watch alternative programming at halftime
- 12:50Speaker 1: of Super Bowl sixty. So let me start by pointing
- 12:53Speaker 1: out this was not your aunt Sadie flipping channels by accident.
- 12:59Speaker 1: When you get to that number of people, they didn't
- 13:03Speaker 1: just wander off the reservation, right, They went somewhere specific
- 13:08Speaker 1: and in this case, I guess it was the Kid
- 13:09Speaker 1: Rock All American halftime thing. And that is coordinated chaos
- 13:17Speaker 1: is what that is. I mean, you know how hard
- 13:20Speaker 1: I cannot stress how hard it is to get a
- 13:23Speaker 1: couple of million of people to do anything at the
- 13:27Speaker 1: same time. It is so difficult, and to try to
- 13:31Speaker 1: get them to leave the biggest TV event on Earth,
- 13:35Speaker 1: at least in America, middle of the game. And you know,
- 13:40Speaker 1: some people said, well I have to drop in the bucket,
- 13:42Speaker 1: and there were still many more people watching Bad Bunny,
- 13:44Speaker 1: And yeah, that is true, that is true. I'm sure
- 13:47Speaker 1: when the numbers come out, they'll say the NFL will
- 13:49Speaker 1: pump their chest out and say one hundred and ten
- 13:52Speaker 1: million people what ever watching Bad Bunny. But that's to me,
- 13:57Speaker 1: that's not the point. To me, that's not the point.
- 14:00Speaker 1: If you took the population in the city of Chicago,
- 14:05Speaker 1: San Francisco, and Houston, combined population of those three cities,
- 14:11Speaker 1: and every man, woman and child watching television in those
- 14:15Speaker 1: cities said, you know what, we don't want to watch
- 14:16Speaker 1: the halftime show in the NFL. We want to watch
- 14:19Speaker 1: something else. That's what this is. If you get to
- 14:22Speaker 1: six over six million people, you're combining the population in
- 14:26Speaker 1: the city of Chicago, San Francisco, and Houston who all
- 14:29Speaker 1: tuned out the Bad Bunny performance to watch this other one.
- 14:33Speaker 1: So that is defiance, and that's a bunch of people
- 14:36Speaker 1: planting the flag like, yeah, you don't get us anymore.
- 14:40Speaker 1: And anyone who's in broadcasting the real ones anyway, know
- 14:44Speaker 1: that that is not You know, six million is not
- 14:47Speaker 1: just a random background noise. It's not. And the way
- 14:52Speaker 1: this works a lot of the time, it's much easier
- 14:54Speaker 1: to keep a customer than to get a new customer.
- 14:58Speaker 1: Right It's like, I'm trying to to get you to listen,
- 15:01Speaker 1: and it's easier for me to keep you listening rather
- 15:03Speaker 1: than get some other jackwagon who's not listening to come
- 15:07Speaker 1: over and be part of the show. It's easier if
- 15:10Speaker 1: I just have you continue on. And that's with any
- 15:12Speaker 1: one of these platforms. It's the same concept. So in
- 15:18Speaker 1: that TV business where they really they've been bleeding trying
- 15:21Speaker 1: to get people to watch a lot of this stuff,
- 15:23Speaker 1: that is a warning shot. And you can argue taste
- 15:26Speaker 1: and politics and all that stuff and get into it,
- 15:29Speaker 1: but you can't argue the math on this, like, hey,
- 15:32Speaker 1: they're the same in the on the YouTube stream there
- 15:34Speaker 1: was over six million people that peaked at six point
- 15:36Speaker 1: one on one of the streams. There was another stream
- 15:39Speaker 1: that had an estimated million people. And we'll see how
- 15:42Speaker 1: many of these numbers are legit or not. I'm not
- 15:44Speaker 1: the one keeping track of it. I'm just telling you
- 15:46Speaker 1: what i've heard. That is a statement. That is a statement,
- 15:49Speaker 1: and my statement is I hate all halftime shows. That's
- 15:52Speaker 1: my statement. I don't know whether it's bad Bunny or
- 15:55Speaker 1: kid rock. I don't need that. If I want music,
- 15:58Speaker 1: I'll go listen to music. And I want football, I'll
- 16:02Speaker 1: watch football. And by the way, might I add, when
- 16:06Speaker 1: I'm watching the Super Bowl halftime, a really long break,
- 16:10Speaker 1: much longer than every other NFL game and a chance
- 16:13Speaker 1: for us to enjoy some nice snacks, and so I
- 16:15Speaker 1: go with the snacks. That's my move. I stand with
- 16:18Speaker 1: the snacks, snacky mcsnack. It is the Ben Mahler Show.
- 16:23Speaker 1: If you would like to comment on that, maybe you
- 16:25Speaker 1: were one of the people that tuned out the halftime show,
- 16:27Speaker 1: or you watched it and you love Bad Bunny love,
- 16:30Speaker 1: you couldn't get enough. You were all turned on with
- 16:32Speaker 1: Bad Bunny. They're doing whatever. I don't think you wore
- 16:35Speaker 1: dressed though I don't. I didn't. I wasn't watching it,
- 16:37Speaker 1: but I'm guessing I would have heard if he was
- 16:38Speaker 1: wearing a dress. No dress, you wear a dress anyway.

- 19:53Speaker 1: in the broadcast as the super Bowl is now dun
- 19:56Speaker 1: Skis and we move on. Later this hour, we will
- 19:59Speaker 1: have the always popular Mallor to the thirty. We also
- 20:03Speaker 1: the Insta Trivia we'll be coming up for you a
- 20:05Speaker 1: little bit later. Tabloid fodder. Oh, there's some good tabloid fodder,
- 20:10Speaker 1: solid tabloid fodder, which we will give you because that's
- 20:14Speaker 1: what we do here. I read the tabloids, so you
- 20:16Speaker 1: do not have to read the tabloids. That's my gift
- 20:19Speaker 1: to you that I read these tabloid stories so you
- 20:22Speaker 1: do not have to worry about them at all. Meanwhile,
- 20:26Speaker 1: we'll go to the phones right now. And before we
- 20:28Speaker 1: do that, though, let's read some of the really just
- 20:31Speaker 1: amazingly entertaining comments that we're sent in by the Malard
- 20:36Speaker 1: Militia at Ben Mahlor. That's at Ben Mahlor if you
- 20:40Speaker 1: would like to join the brigade. The people very upset.
- 20:42Speaker 1: Last week I was doing the show from the remote
- 20:44Speaker 1: studio in San Francisco and things were not working on
- 20:48Speaker 1: the X machine, and people got very ups was an
- 20:51Speaker 1: outage in San Francisco. The specialist says, I asked Growk
- 20:55Speaker 1: to create a character of Ben Mahlor and it was
- 20:59Speaker 1: rather generous. Yeah, well give me, give me a decent
- 21:03Speaker 1: head of hair, and I look like to me, I
- 21:05Speaker 1: look like Doug Gottlieb in that like, is are you
- 21:08Speaker 1: sure you didn't? I don't know some guy that used
- 21:11Speaker 1: to work here. He's coaching the basketball team. I guess
- 21:15Speaker 1: I don't know what's I don't know what their record.
- 21:18Speaker 1: What else Eke says was the Bad Bunny halftime show
- 21:21Speaker 1: sponsored by Cadbury. I don't know. I don't know about that.
- 21:26Speaker 1: Sala salsas alive. He says, the halftime show was awesome.
- 21:32Speaker 1: I'm glad to be in Puerto Rico tonight. America. Isn't
- 21:38Speaker 1: just the US. People whining about the performance probably have
- 21:41Speaker 1: limited culture experiences see the world. Uh. I hate all
- 21:47Speaker 1: halftime shows, so I'm it doesn't matter. I don't really
- 21:51Speaker 1: like any of them. Uh, but I'm glad you're there.
- 21:54Speaker 1: I wonder what happened to your sault. We haven't heard
- 21:55Speaker 1: anym a while, Michael writes, since has been a plus
- 21:57Speaker 1: plus on the Super Bowl halftime show. Comments. My girlfriend
- 22:00Speaker 1: was watching two of them, one on her phone, another
- 22:04Speaker 1: on her tablet. I was listening to the radio call
- 22:07Speaker 1: with Kevin Harlan and Kurt Warner. They rock the call
- 22:11Speaker 1: the game shocking. I know.
- 22:13Speaker 3: See, I was gonna make that point. Just because there
- 22:15Speaker 3: was six million people streaming, that doesn't mean six people
- 22:18Speaker 3: six million people left the Super Bowl halftime show to
- 22:22Speaker 3: watch it. You know, you can watch both at the
- 22:25Speaker 3: same time if we have the technology.
- 22:27Speaker 1: Oh, that is true. But people at Apple, though, what
- 22:30Speaker 1: I would argue the people who sponsored that. I think
- 22:31Speaker 1: it was Apple that sponsored the half of them show.
- 22:33Speaker 1: They don't want anyone to tune out, right, They're like,
- 22:35Speaker 1: we want the most bang for our bucks. So if
- 22:37Speaker 1: people were watching other things, Yeah, you don't know about that, Lorena,
- 22:42Speaker 1: And I'm sure there's some conversations that have taken place there.
- 22:44Speaker 1: If it's over five six million people, that's a big number.
- 22:49Speaker 1: Let's go to phones and let's say hello to Mark
- 22:53Speaker 1: the full name guy who's in Oregon. Not in Medford, Oregon,
- 22:58Speaker 1: He's in his other town. Hell Mark the full name guy. Hello, sir, welcome,
- 23:02Speaker 1: oh Man, Yes, Oregon, Okay, Ashley, congratulations Ashland, Oregon.
- 23:10Speaker 8: Na name Bob of negativity to try to tell people
- 23:16Speaker 8: that you're going right down the middle of the road
- 23:19Speaker 8: with your comments. That would be like me saying that
- 23:23Speaker 8: about my comments about the Dodgers, then, mallor.
- 23:27Speaker 1: What what did I say that was unbiased?
- 23:30Speaker 7: Though?
- 23:30Speaker 1: What did I say?
- 23:31Speaker 8: Donald sucks? The halfback didn't deserve the m v p
- 23:36Speaker 8: oh Donald Donald stuff?
- 23:39Speaker 1: Okay? Did what did you watch the game? Do you
- 23:47Speaker 1: you watch the game? I'm asking you a question. Did
- 23:49Speaker 1: you watch the game?
- 23:51Speaker 8: Screaming at you that the Dodgers suck?
- 23:53Speaker 4: Then to hear you rip?
- 23:55Speaker 1: Okay, so we've we've established you did not watch the game.
- 23:58Speaker 1: Otherwise you would have said I watched the games, so
- 24:00Speaker 1: your analysis is irrelevant. I what did I say that
- 24:04Speaker 1: was incorrected? Donald was bad? He was bad? Why can't
- 24:07Speaker 1: we Why am I not allowed to say that? Why
- 24:09Speaker 1: can't I say that?
- 24:11Speaker 6: But that's pretty stupid because.
- 24:14Speaker 1: Why would it sound stupid? If you watch the game,
- 24:17Speaker 1: you would understand he was not good. They won in
- 24:20Speaker 1: spite of the quarterback. Why is that hard for you
- 24:22Speaker 1: to understand?
- 24:23Speaker 4: It?
- 24:23Speaker 1: Does happen.
- 24:26Speaker 6: The coach make sure that the guy who led us
- 24:31Speaker 6: in turnovers was not going to lose games by turning
- 24:36Speaker 6: over the football.
- 24:37Speaker 1: Okay, so you're you're a mere. Admitting that the coach
- 24:39Speaker 1: knows his quarterback is a is kryptonite. Okay, we agree.
- 24:44Speaker 1: We agree, yes that Sam Donald is bad and the
- 24:47Speaker 1: Seahawks can't play legitimate, big time football on offense because
- 24:50Speaker 1: their quarterback sucks. Okay, we agree. Good. Next, what's the
- 24:53Speaker 1: next point you want to make?
- 24:57Speaker 8: Will Donald may not be a superstar. He played well
- 25:00Speaker 8: enough to win, not.
- 25:02Speaker 1: Really, not really, he just was. He sucked less than
- 25:05Speaker 1: the other quarterback. That's it. That's all. No, not really. Uh,
- 25:12Speaker 1: you know, most most of you kick that many field goals.
- 25:14Speaker 1: You lose, You should lose that. He played like you
- 25:16Speaker 1: should lose that game.
- 25:18Speaker 6: You win, you propit because you're good stupid?
- 25:24Speaker 1: All right, So you didn't watch the game. You have
- 25:26Speaker 1: no idea what you're talking about. You're talking out of
- 25:27Speaker 1: your took, as we've established that. All right, what other
- 25:29Speaker 1: stupid comments would you like to make? Go ahead? Nothing?
- 25:34Speaker 1: That's it, yeah, nothing, you got nothing? Wonderful? All right,
- 25:41Speaker 1: thank you, go away?
- 25:43Speaker 7: Uh?
- 25:44Speaker 1: Okay, guy doesn't watch the game, but he wants to.
- 25:47Speaker 1: You don't know what you're talking about. But by the
- 25:49Speaker 1: way Seattle played Hyde the quarterback because the quarterback sucks. Okay,
- 25:52Speaker 1: we agree, next point, we agree. There you go. Paul
- 25:58Speaker 1: says on YouTube alone, the All American Halftime Show has
- 26:01Speaker 1: over eighteen million views currently. Okay, fine, I don't know.
- 26:07Speaker 1: Let's see here. I even the terrible who supports cheaters.
- 26:14Speaker 1: He lives in Houston and he likes people that cheat.
- 26:17Speaker 1: Says Okay, a good way to spend how the halftime
- 26:20Speaker 1: show was the numbers don't lie? And then he's got
- 26:24Speaker 1: some number thing here. Okay, do you have gremlins at
- 26:34Speaker 1: your house right now? Ben? I have sounds like gremlins
- 26:41Speaker 1: to me, because the equipment sucks. That's why anyway, not
- 26:49Speaker 1: that I'm complaining about the equipment at all. It just
- 26:51Speaker 1: sounded like I was complaining about the equipment because it
- 26:53Speaker 1: always seems to happen, and I've told them about this,
- 26:56Speaker 1: and nobody at the company seems to care enough to
- 26:59Speaker 1: fix the equipment that is malfunctioning. So I have to
- 27:02Speaker 1: deal with it when this happens. A marked the full
- 27:05Speaker 1: name guy. We'll skip over that he sent some other nonsense,
- 27:07Speaker 1: some other gibbers Jerry and Rhode Island, says Ben If
- 27:11Speaker 1: your phone wasn't busy. I have tried to call in.
- 27:14Speaker 1: I'm disgusted by the Patriots play. Drake reverted to how
- 27:17Speaker 1: he played in the early part of the season, and
- 27:21Speaker 1: then she was ranting about the offensive line of the
- 27:25Speaker 1: Patriots and all that go back to the phone. So
- 27:27Speaker 1: Lucky Tony is in the bay. I did not see
- 27:30Speaker 1: Lucky Tony, but he is there in San Francisco. Hello,
- 27:33Speaker 1: Lucky Tony, Welcome, Hey man.
- 27:36Speaker 9: I want to clear up what I said the other
- 27:37Speaker 9: day when I said my stripper name was Frank Grebman,
- 27:40Speaker 9: it's because there's nothing to see here. When I said
- 27:43Speaker 9: I was hung like a midja basketball player, it's because
- 27:45Speaker 9: I'm hung like a little guy. And when my girlfriend
- 27:48Speaker 9: wanted to pound of flesh, I only had a four
- 27:50Speaker 9: ounce rode And if Ronica Leo was wearing blue and
- 27:53Speaker 9: orange panties and I'd have a New Bears beanie because
- 27:56Speaker 9: I'd be wearing her panties on my head.
- 27:59Speaker 1: Thanks Ben, Okay, all right, thank you? An interesting look. Yeah,
- 28:04Speaker 1: he's an interesting man. There's a lot going on with
- 28:07Speaker 1: Lucky Tony. Lot going on. Let's say hello to Jerome
- 28:11Speaker 1: and Charleston. Bring it home. Jerome, Hello Jerome and Charleston, welcome.
- 28:17Speaker 7: I called you last week and I told you to
- 28:19Speaker 7: pick your far effing frome.
- 28:22Speaker 1: You told me that this is the eye told, this
- 28:24Speaker 1: is the eye told.
- 28:25Speaker 7: To the super Bowl. They got hand of three games, okay,
- 28:30Speaker 7: and last night just proved it once again. They are
- 28:34Speaker 7: a bunch of frauds, all these people that picked the
- 28:37Speaker 7: pinteress even after watching him for three weeks. You need
- 28:40Speaker 7: to be fired from your job if you work for
- 28:42Speaker 7: fuck because you don't deserve the money to get. And
- 28:46Speaker 7: as far as bad buddy of kid Rock, hey, that's
- 28:49Speaker 7: what tell is now, huh, that's what Talvi is kid Rock.
- 28:53Speaker 7: He's let me care about him. He's gotta think for
- 28:56Speaker 7: underhead drills. So you know you a way in hell.
- 28:59Speaker 7: I want to watch that by all right.
- 29:05Speaker 1: By the way, somebody somebody called up and ratted you
- 29:07Speaker 1: out last week that said you called political talk radio.
- 29:10Speaker 1: Is that correct, your Roman, Charleston?
- 29:12Speaker 7: I do, I do. I'm very opinionated. My mom didn't
- 29:15Speaker 7: like that about me, but I did say my mom
- 29:18Speaker 7: didn't like But you know what, I'm not changing because
- 29:21Speaker 7: I like to ward to my opinion.
- 29:24Speaker 1: Even when you even when you're even when you're wrong,
- 29:26Speaker 1: you still like to just scream your opinion. I'm not wrong,
- 29:29Speaker 1: You're not I'm wrong, sure about that?
- 29:32Speaker 7: A fraud? They were front I watched what.
- 29:37Speaker 1: Is considering that? Considering that Seattle was certainly you'd agree
- 29:42Speaker 1: not very impressive in the Super Bowl? You would you
- 29:44Speaker 1: agree with me on that? Did you watch the game?
- 29:45Speaker 1: They weren't very impressive?
- 29:46Speaker 7: Right?
- 29:47Speaker 1: What does that make Seattle?
- 29:49Speaker 7: They're not the whole team trying to win that game?
- 29:51Speaker 7: The pages were too but I watched.
- 29:54Speaker 1: But I mean you said that, you said the Patriots
- 29:55Speaker 1: are frauds, but you degree Seattle was not very good, Like,
- 29:59Speaker 1: so what does that make them? Diego handed in the
- 30:02Speaker 1: game the detection San Diego handed them the game. That's impressive.
- 30:06Speaker 1: I didn't know San Diego still had a team. I
- 30:08Speaker 1: thought they left ten years ago to.
- 30:10Speaker 7: Broncos played a quarterback to hadn't played in two damn years.
- 30:14Speaker 7: They got handed three games and when they finally met
- 30:17Speaker 7: that's going to stand up to him and didn't hand
- 30:20Speaker 7: the game Tom? What happened? Say law?
- 30:23Speaker 1: I would argue Seattle tried to hand the game to
- 30:25Speaker 1: the Patriots. The Patriots just didn't accept it. Like you
- 30:28Speaker 1: kick that many field goals. They scored one offensive touchdown
- 30:32Speaker 1: I believe Seattle did in this game, and scored a
- 30:35Speaker 1: couple of scores right off of mistakes by the Patriots.
- 30:39Speaker 7: You talked about chickens deels. You know, my philosophy is,
- 30:42Speaker 7: don't tell me about the labels. You show me the baby.
- 30:45Speaker 7: You won the game, That's all the hell had mattered.
- 30:48Speaker 1: Okay, So I don''t care. Okay, so you then why
- 30:51Speaker 1: are we Why do you even bother calling out? We
- 30:53Speaker 1: should just say, okay, here's the final score, no commentary.
- 30:55Speaker 1: We cannot break the game back because Jeroman Charleston. Jeroman
- 31:00Speaker 1: Charleston said, we're not allowed to break down. All he
- 31:02Speaker 1: cares about is who won the game. Okay, good, that'll
- 31:05Speaker 1: kill the talk show. I'll have no job, there'll be
- 31:07Speaker 1: no talk radio. This person won the election. We can't
- 31:10Speaker 1: talk about that. You can't do political talk radio anymore. Okay,
- 31:13Speaker 1: moving on, Thank you, Jerome. You've just killed all of
- 31:15Speaker 1: talk radio and all of conversation because all you care
- 31:18Speaker 1: about is the final of his Are thank you? Jerome?
- 31:20Speaker 1: Are you happy?
- 31:23Speaker 6: No?
- 31:23Speaker 1: Is he gone? Did we hang out? I didn't hang
- 31:25Speaker 1: up on him. I hung up on him. Well, all right,
- 31:29Speaker 1: I want to hear is witty comeback there building up
- 31:32Speaker 1: to that, but we will not get that. Unfortunately, we'll
- 31:33Speaker 1: not get the witty come back from Jerome. So the
- 31:35Speaker 1: tabloids having a field day here with Stefan Diggs and
- 31:41Speaker 1: Cardi B. Now Stefan Diggs prematurely celebrating the Super Bowl
- 31:45Speaker 1: like the like he had won it. When the Patriots
- 31:47Speaker 1: got to the Super Bowl, he was really excited about it.
- 31:49Speaker 1: Talked about, you know, being in the Super Bowl, the
- 31:51Speaker 1: big stage and all that and what it means and
- 31:53Speaker 1: all this stuff. So how did Stefan Diggs do in
- 31:55Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. He caught three passes for thirty seven yards.
- 31:58Speaker 1: That's it. That's all Stefon Diggs. Number eight in your
- 32:01Speaker 1: scorecard and number like seven hundred and sixty three in
- 32:04Speaker 1: terms of impact in the Super Bowl. The tabloids, though,
- 32:08Speaker 1: having a field day with this because it appears that
- 32:10Speaker 1: Stefan Diggs and Cardi B unfollowed each other on Instagram
- 32:16Speaker 1: moments after the super Bowl. Moments after the Super Bowl.
- 32:22Speaker 1: The social media unfollow this comes over the weekend after
- 32:27Speaker 1: a drunk what appears to be drunk Cardi B was
- 32:30Speaker 1: slurring her words during a flag football broadcast, and she
- 32:35Speaker 1: also attempted to twerk with a robot on the streets
- 32:40Speaker 1: of San Francisco and ended up falling over, so she
- 32:44Speaker 1: may or may not have been intoxicated at that point
- 32:47Speaker 1: as well. So I'm pretty sure Stefan Diggs does not
- 32:50Speaker 1: really care about all that. But who knows. I don't.
- 32:52Speaker 1: Maybe they're just doing that to get attention, and I'm
- 32:55Speaker 1: giving them attention. So here you go. Yeah, it doesn't
- 32:57Speaker 1: matter if you unfollow each other, if you have a
- 32:59Speaker 1: baby together. I did see the robots. Yeah, you're pretty
- 33:02Speaker 1: much locked in for eighteen years. I saw those robots
- 33:05Speaker 1: walking around the streets of San Francisco, and I was
- 33:08Speaker 1: I prematurely credited with the I credited San Francisco for
- 33:12Speaker 1: cleaning up the streets. I said, well, he's a pretty
- 33:14Speaker 1: nice right around the Media center, the Moscone Center. Then
- 33:16Speaker 1: I made the mistake of walking a few blocks over.
- 33:19Speaker 10: Holy craph, my god, all the fitting all in the world,
- 33:25Speaker 10: My god, people just move where they moved people over.
- 33:31Speaker 1: Geez so and then I actually I talked to one
- 33:35Speaker 1: of the police officers. Of course, they never want to
- 33:36Speaker 1: go on the record because they get in trouble if
- 33:38Speaker 1: they actually tell you what's really going on into a microphone.
- 33:41Speaker 1: But he's like yeah. The guy was like Marcus, really
- 33:45Speaker 1: nice guy. And he's like, I won't say his last name.
- 33:47Speaker 1: I'm sure there's more than one San Francisco cop named Marcus.
- 33:50Speaker 1: But this guy was like yeah. He's like, yeah, we
- 33:51Speaker 1: did the same thing when the leader of China came.
- 33:54Speaker 1: We just moved everyone out of this area. So everything's good,
- 33:57Speaker 1: and I'm sure it's probably back by the end of
- 33:59Speaker 1: the the morning today when the sun comes up, they'll
- 34:02Speaker 1: all be back in the middle of that downtown area.
- 34:05Speaker 1: But it was nice for you know, the two block
- 34:07Speaker 1: radius with near the convention center. But you go a
- 34:10Speaker 1: little further up and yeah, it's it's not not a
- 34:15Speaker 1: good situation. And it's not it doesn't know the same
- 34:18Speaker 1: thing in LA. You're good to LA. It's the same crap,
- 34:21Speaker 1: so seem I don't know if it's any worse in
- 34:23Speaker 1: San Francisco and it is in LA. But it is
- 34:25Speaker 1: not too good and not the good time. Now for

- 38:44Speaker 1: about that to the third degree?
- 38:47Speaker 4: This is one big event gets grilled.
- 38:52Speaker 3: Krupo loop And it was reported this weekend that the
- 38:55Speaker 3: Atlanta Falcons planned to release Kirk Cousins, and some people
- 38:59Speaker 3: are saying that a reunion with the Vikings makes a
- 39:02Speaker 3: lot of sense.
- 39:03Speaker 1: Could you see that happening? Well, it makes sense in
- 39:05Speaker 1: the standpoint. They don't have a quarterback. JJ McCarthy sucks.
- 39:09Speaker 1: He got the GM fired because he's so bad that
- 39:11Speaker 1: they went And again, if you're gonna rip Minnesota for
- 39:14Speaker 1: letting Donald go the move. The problem was not letting
- 39:16Speaker 1: Donald go. The problem was trusting JJ McCarty. They got
- 39:20Speaker 1: to get somebody and the other. There are not a
- 39:22Speaker 1: lot of great options out there, so and Cousins is
- 39:26Speaker 1: not a great option, but it is. It does make
- 39:28Speaker 1: sense because they cannot go into the year with JJ McCarthy.
- 39:31Speaker 1: The guy blows next.
- 39:32Speaker 3: So after the Bill Belichick snub, the Pro Football Hall
- 39:35Speaker 3: of Fame is contemplating adjustments to its voting process, like
- 39:39Speaker 3: referring to in person voting and discussion so that there's
- 39:42Speaker 3: you know, more talk about what they do. Do you
- 39:46Speaker 3: think this will fix these issues?
- 39:47Speaker 1: Ben No, What they need to do is not have
- 39:50Speaker 1: guys like Tony Dungee vote. Dungee he wouldn't even he
- 39:54Speaker 1: didn't have the balls to tell you about who he
- 39:55Speaker 1: voted for because he obviously didn't vote for Bill Belichick.
- 39:58Speaker 1: I heard some of these guys like Randy Mossell. We shouldn't.
- 40:00Speaker 1: We should only have players and coaches vote. No, don't
- 40:03Speaker 1: even have those guys vote. Have no one, They didn't,
- 40:06Speaker 1: nobody knows anything. They're all stupid. Next.
- 40:09Speaker 3: All right, so last week, during this segment, you said
- 40:11Speaker 3: that you could see Lebron going back to Cleveland if
- 40:14Speaker 3: you lose the Lakers. Now, Kendrick Perkins says that Donovan
- 40:18Speaker 3: Mitchell and James Harden are starting to recruit Lebron.
- 40:21Speaker 1: What do you think the ceiling is for that team
- 40:23Speaker 1: the Cavaliers, Yes, if that were to happen. Oh, they're
- 40:27Speaker 1: not getting as long as Harden's there. Forget about it.
- 40:30Speaker 1: They're not winning anything. Listen, we know James Harden. I've
- 40:33Speaker 1: seen it now. I don't want to hear about James Harden.
- 40:36Speaker 1: The guy blows in the play. I don't want to
- 40:38Speaker 1: hear about it. Coop stop, how do we do he
- 40:40Speaker 1: passed this decision. That's what we put it on the ball.
- 40:42Speaker 1: I won the game. I won the game, Popeye, I
- 40:44Speaker 1: won the game.
