- 1:12Speaker 1: supply chain shortages from the Fox Sports Radio studios, as
- 1:16Speaker 1: approved by ostrich Ant, who knows. He's fully aware that
- 1:22Speaker 1: this portion of the Ben Maler Show on Fox made
- 1:25Speaker 1: possible in part by our friends at tire Iraq. For
- 1:27Speaker 1: over forty years, that's a long time. For over forty years,
- 1:31Speaker 1: Tiraq has been helping customers find the right tires for how,
- 1:34Speaker 1: what and where they drive, ship fast and free back by,
- 1:37Speaker 1: free road hazard protection, with convenient installation options like mobile
- 1:42Speaker 1: tire installation, tire i ract dot com, the way that
- 1:46Speaker 1: tire buying should be. And we are back at and
- 1:48Speaker 1: I could sit here and wax poetic about the Dwyers.
- 1:52Speaker 1: Max Munsey, who was apparently blind, he's illegally blind, then
- 1:56Speaker 1: he put some glasses on. All of a sudden he's
- 1:58Speaker 1: hitting the ball again. And the dagger to the Metropolitan
- 2:02Speaker 1: by might start with that, that's a random regular season
- 2:05Speaker 1: game in early June. And while there are some stories
- 2:08Speaker 1: in baseball that I think are worthy of some hot talk,
- 2:12Speaker 1: eh not to start the show. The biggest story play
- 2:16Speaker 1: the Hits, mall Man play, the Hits pro bouncy ball,
- 2:20Speaker 1: No da na da da Hey, good bye, fresh off
- 2:25Speaker 1: the upstart playoff run, the toast of the NBA, overcoming
- 2:32Speaker 1: demons of years gone by. The New York Knickerbockers said
- 2:37Speaker 1: bye bye to their head coach. They shot their shot.
- 2:41Speaker 1: This is so great, this is outstanding. I love this.
- 2:45Speaker 1: It is such incompetence. It is malfeasance. So if you
- 2:50Speaker 1: haven't heard by now and what are you doing? It's
- 2:53Speaker 1: a bad job, ay you? So we learned in the
- 2:56Speaker 1: afternoon hours the Knickerbockers had the I did to Paul
- 3:01Speaker 1: as their head coach, Tom Thibodeau, he going bye bye.
- 3:06Speaker 1: He's out of there now. This is one year after
- 3:09Speaker 1: signing a three year big money extension with New York.
- 3:13Speaker 1: Thibodeau is kicked out of Gotham, get out of here,
- 3:18Speaker 1: so New York, New York will be looking for a
- 3:21Speaker 1: new voice to bark underneath Penn Station there try to
- 3:27Speaker 1: get over the hump five years of coach Tibbs and
- 3:31Speaker 1: no more. The Knickerbockers say bye bye, still trying to
- 3:35Speaker 1: win a championship for the first time in over fifty years,
- 3:40Speaker 1: since the early seventies, which was before the internet. We
- 3:44Speaker 1: know that it was before cable television existed. In fact,
- 3:49Speaker 1: in nineteen seventy three, more people were listening to radio
- 3:54Speaker 1: than we're watching even television. It was a crossover point
- 3:59Speaker 1: back then. But there were radio it was much more
- 4:00Speaker 1: popular even than television. So it's been a minute, so
- 4:05Speaker 1: let us discuss the question did the Knicks do coach
- 4:09Speaker 1: Tom Thibodeau dirty did they do him dirty with this
- 4:14Speaker 1: pink slip? So I've got infomercial, sesame street, and iPad
- 4:22Speaker 1: and we will combine all of these things together and
- 4:26Speaker 1: we're going to make a nice trip to can Kuhn.
- 4:30Speaker 1: Tom Thibodeau does not appear to be the kind of
- 4:32Speaker 1: guy that would go to can Kuhn, but he can,
- 4:34Speaker 1: he can afford it, and he's got plenty of free time.
- 4:38Speaker 1: Plenty of free time. So my first thought here, as
- 4:41Speaker 1: I learned from one of my teachers as a kid,
- 4:44Speaker 1: that my teacher was named doctor Seuss. I think that
- 4:46Speaker 1: doctor Seuss got canceled somewhere along the way, but you know,
- 4:49Speaker 1: not in my world. So doctor Seuss taught me when
- 4:52Speaker 1: I was a child that sometimes in life the questions
- 4:55Speaker 1: are complicated and the answers are simple. And this would
- 4:59Speaker 1: be one of those times. The answer to the question
- 5:02Speaker 1: that we posed whether or not the Knicks did Tom
- 5:06Speaker 1: Thibodeau dirty, is apse of freaking lootely. That is the
- 5:10Speaker 1: answer here. We're talking about a basketball travesty. Of course, no,
- 5:15Speaker 1: it's just basketball. What is that? From a pure just
- 5:20Speaker 1: hoop head perspective? Right now, we can question how much
- 5:23Speaker 1: coaches matter and all that stuff, and why do you
- 5:25Speaker 1: even need a coach? That aside that conversation, We've had
- 5:29Speaker 1: that conversation, you and I, but that aside, just talk
- 5:33Speaker 1: about from the basketball side, like what are you doing here? Seriously,
- 5:36Speaker 1: what are you doing? You know, watching Tom Thibodeau coach
- 5:40Speaker 1: the Knicks over the last five years. I'm a big
- 5:45Speaker 1: fan of infomercials. When as a little kid, I you know,
- 5:47Speaker 1: I hang out at night watching infomercials back in the
- 5:50Speaker 1: old days, and I love infomercial I remember it was
- 5:53Speaker 1: one infomercial that was very popular, old school infomercial. It
- 5:58Speaker 1: was the Jack l Lane. Most people don't even know
- 6:00Speaker 1: who that is anymore. He's gone, but Jacqueline Power Juicer
- 6:05Speaker 1: was very popular infomercial. And I was singing about that
- 6:08Speaker 1: when I was watching the fallout from the coaching change
- 6:12Speaker 1: in New York, because coach Tibbs squeezed every ounce of talent,
- 6:18Speaker 1: every ounce of talent out of that roster, that locker room,
- 6:22Speaker 1: however you want to say it. And it was like
- 6:24Speaker 1: he was taking a rock and juicing a rock and
- 6:27Speaker 1: he got something out of it. He did. They had
- 6:30Speaker 1: back to back fifty win regular seasons. Well it doesn't matter.
- 6:33Speaker 1: It's the regular season. Okay, back to back fifty win seasons,
- 6:37Speaker 1: Eastern Conference Finals for the first time in a generation,
- 6:40Speaker 1: a bleeping generation, and doing that while looking like a
- 6:45Speaker 1: swamp donkey coaching the NIXT. I mean, his whole life
- 6:50Speaker 1: dependent on every game. He was bedraggled. He just what
- 6:56Speaker 1: did not care about his appearance. He just was trying.
- 6:58Speaker 1: He was a coach. And that's it. Big Apple Fashion
- 7:02Speaker 1: Week in Manhattan, and he's out there like a slob
- 7:04Speaker 1: because he's just a coach. He's just grinding away every
- 7:08Speaker 1: single game and all that stuff. And he helped. It
- 7:12Speaker 1: wasn't the only reason, wasn't even the main reis the
- 7:15Speaker 1: players are ultimately the ones that matter. But that being said,
- 7:19Speaker 1: Tom Thibodeau took over a team that was a laughing stock.
- 7:24Speaker 1: Everyone would point their finger and say haha, like Nelson
- 7:28Speaker 1: from the Simpsons, and they turned that into a team
- 7:31Speaker 1: that would punch back and did punch back and professionally.
- 7:36Speaker 1: I mean, let me be clear, you've got two dimensions
- 7:40Speaker 1: at the same time, because you've got the professional dimension.
- 7:43Speaker 1: From a again hoops standpoint, mayn that blows, BOYD does
- 7:48Speaker 1: that blow? And then on the other side, you've got
- 7:51Speaker 1: the personal side of it, and financially in that dimension,
- 7:56Speaker 1: this is a wonderful mitzvah for Tom Thibodeau because the Knicks,
- 8:01Speaker 1: if my mal or math is correct, the Knicks have
- 8:03Speaker 1: to pay him thirty million dollars to do nothing. He
- 8:08Speaker 1: doesn't have to work again. He can go move to
- 8:11Speaker 1: Key West and you know, smoke weed all day and
- 8:14Speaker 1: all night and all that and just knock himself out,
- 8:17Speaker 1: go play pickleball, sit on He's sit on a sofa
- 8:21Speaker 1: for the next several years and just watch TikTok videos.
- 8:25Speaker 1: And the Knicks gotta pay him thirty million. I mean,
- 8:28Speaker 1: my god, what is wrong with that? But but yeah, you've
- 8:30Speaker 1: got two different things going on. It does not appear
- 8:33Speaker 1: that coach Tibbs is hardwired to be that guy who's
- 8:39Speaker 1: just like, hey, I don't really care about whether I
- 8:41Speaker 1: work or not. It seems like a guy that actually
- 8:43Speaker 1: likes his job, takes pride in his work, doesn't cut
- 8:44Speaker 1: corners things like that. Now, page two, So the question
- 8:50Speaker 1: is who done it? Oh, it's a great mystery. Oh
- 8:54Speaker 1: it's just sports radio. But so who done it? This
- 8:58Speaker 1: is not the kind of a movie that is normally
- 9:01Speaker 1: made you overcame the odds, the Knicks. We're not supposed
- 9:06Speaker 1: to even get to the final four of the NBA
- 9:08Speaker 1: this year, and they did. So who pulled the trigger?
- 9:12Speaker 1: Who's the one that's fingerprints are on the trigger there
- 9:19Speaker 1: to move to change coaches for the Knickerbockers. So there
- 9:23Speaker 1: is this great debate. There are a couple of camps
- 9:27Speaker 1: here that have there's three possibilities, like Triangle, there's three possibilities.
- 9:33Speaker 1: I'm gonna give you the possibilities A, B, and C,
- 9:36Speaker 1: and then you make the call. But I'm actually gonna
- 9:38Speaker 1: make the call first because I have the bully pulpit,
- 9:40Speaker 1: so I'm going to make the call before you. So
- 9:44Speaker 1: the very top. You always start out with the disgruntled
- 9:48Speaker 1: star player, because that's what usually happens in that business.
- 9:51Speaker 1: Lebron snaps his fingers, coach gets fired, all right, That's
- 9:54Speaker 1: normally how that works. Nikole Jokich has a problem with
- 9:58Speaker 1: Michael Malone. He gone doesn't matth three days before the
- 10:01Speaker 1: three games before the end of a seasons coaching. It's
- 10:04Speaker 1: called the coach killer. I don't get the sense that's
- 10:07Speaker 1: going on here. Not to say that Jalen Brunson and
- 10:11Speaker 1: Tom Thibodeau were sitting around the campfire and smoking and
- 10:15Speaker 1: singing Kumbaya and all that. I don't think that was
- 10:17Speaker 1: going on. Uh, there was a pretty good relationship. Jalen
- 10:22Speaker 1: Brunson fully blossomed under the guidance or the tutelage or
- 10:28Speaker 1: just the freedom to play from Tom Thibodau and became
- 10:32Speaker 1: an all NBA level player where you know, the hot
- 10:35Speaker 1: take artists or like, hey, wait a minute, this guy
- 10:37Speaker 1: is like in the same category of this guy and
- 10:39Speaker 1: that guy. I'm blah blah blah, just like that. Now
- 10:43Speaker 1: we believe they had a sincere bond. Maybe we're gullible,
- 10:48Speaker 1: It's possible, you know, what do we know? It's just
- 10:51Speaker 1: I don't get the sense and I'm I'm not great
- 10:54Speaker 1: at the English language. I don't really know much. You know,
- 10:57Speaker 1: I know some weird random words from different languages around
- 11:00Speaker 1: the world. But body language, oh man, that's my wheelhead.
- 11:03Speaker 1: I know the body language and right there, right, So
- 11:08Speaker 1: it's not the player. Well then you go, well, what
- 11:11Speaker 1: about the executive? Was their bad blood? And Leon Rose
- 11:15Speaker 1: was the executive, The President of Basketball Operation, I believe
- 11:19Speaker 1: is the official title. So was it leon Rose. What
- 11:23Speaker 1: about the owner James Dolan. So I have looked at
- 11:29Speaker 1: the available evidence. I have deliberated in the jury room.
- 11:32Speaker 1: I do not believe it was Leon Rose. I don't
- 11:36Speaker 1: I do not think it was leon Rose. Leon Rose
- 11:40Speaker 1: before he came to the next was the agent for
- 11:43Speaker 1: who Tom Thibodeau. Yes, they were, Buddy leon Rose calling
- 11:51Speaker 1: me he even got to hire this guy higher TIBs. Okay.
- 11:54Speaker 1: So I don't buy that. Now, agents are slime balls
- 11:58Speaker 1: and slaves balls. I have had agents and they're generally losers.
- 12:03Speaker 1: They're just bad people. So it's conceivable, like maybe like
- 12:07Speaker 1: two percent, that Leon Rose is just a snake, and
- 12:10Speaker 1: he did. But I don't buy that. I don't buy that.
- 12:13Speaker 1: I look at Sesame Street. I look at Sesame Street
- 12:18Speaker 1: and a cookie monster who lives on Sesame Street. And
- 12:22Speaker 1: you follow the cookie crumbs, And when you follow the
- 12:24Speaker 1: cookie crumbs, they lead back to James Dolan. The plot thickens.
- 12:31Speaker 1: James Dolton had his hand in the cookie jar, and
- 12:35Speaker 1: that's where I'm going. The Knicks were the popular pick
- 12:37Speaker 1: by popular people. Once they upset the Celtics, you had
- 12:41Speaker 1: a celebration through the Canyon of Heroes. You had the
- 12:44Speaker 1: Nick fans throwing trash and celebration. Everyone was saying, Oh,
- 12:49Speaker 1: the Knicks got this, they got home court at the Garden.
- 12:52Speaker 1: They're playing the Hicks from Indiana. There's no way they're
- 12:56Speaker 1: going to lose. That series of the Pacers, Are you
- 12:58Speaker 1: kidding me? Is a layup. And if we saw that crap,
- 13:04Speaker 1: I'm pretty confident that James Dolan going to his Hampton
- 13:08Speaker 1: hodown and schmoozing and drinking those Moscow mules and the
- 13:13Speaker 1: Long Island ized teas, hanging out with olig arks and
- 13:18Speaker 1: aristocrats and all the things that rich people do. Of
- 13:23Speaker 1: the one percent, they were all, oh, you got this, Dolan,
- 13:28Speaker 1: this is great. You're ready to go. Way to go,
- 13:30Speaker 1: James Dahl, Oh my god, this is amazing. And so
- 13:35Speaker 1: they were quick. Also. The other thing, even if you
- 13:38Speaker 1: don't believe that I'm right, the thing that is the
- 13:42Speaker 1: dead give way the Knicks using useful idiots in the
- 13:46Speaker 1: media their bodies behind paywalls. The Knicks made sure to
- 13:51Speaker 1: say that it was leon Rose's decision. They leak that. Now,
- 13:55Speaker 1: what does that tell us? That tells us it wasn't
- 13:57Speaker 1: leon Rose's decision. That tells us that he was not
- 14:01Speaker 1: the one that made the call that he is being
- 14:03Speaker 1: propped off as the fall guy. He's they got to
- 14:07Speaker 1: blame somebody because it's not a popular move, so gonna
- 14:11Speaker 1: blame him. It was an irrational move by Dolan, the
- 14:14Speaker 1: owner of the team. The Knicks had a plumbing issue.
- 14:17Speaker 1: Think of it this way. You got a problem with
- 14:21Speaker 1: your plumbing and instead of saying I'm gonna call like
- 14:25Speaker 1: Roto Ruter or whatever, I'm gonna call some plumber. Instead
- 14:29Speaker 1: of calling about gold the website, sending an email getting
- 14:32Speaker 1: the plumber, James Dolan determined that the best solution to
- 14:36Speaker 1: the plumbing problem, to the leaky faucet, was to burn
- 14:40Speaker 1: the house down. Hey, there's the fastest league of a bit,
- 14:45Speaker 1: so let's burn the damn thing down. Let's do it.
- 14:48Speaker 1: Which is I think I believe the word is beta.
- 14:51Speaker 1: That is a beta move by Dolan. Now the last word, quick, right,
- 14:55Speaker 1: the last word here? Where do the Knickerbockers go now
- 15:00Speaker 1: to replace Tom Thibodeau, Like, what's the chess move here?
- 15:04Speaker 1: Now you got the gambling market. The gambling market, they
- 15:08Speaker 1: immediately said, X Knicks associate coach Johnny Bryant, you don't
- 15:15Speaker 1: really know who that is, but apparently he's the darling,
- 15:17Speaker 1: the next big thing in coaching, Johnny Bryant. Bryant has
- 15:21Speaker 1: been with Cleveland. He is a finalist for the Phoenix
- 15:25Speaker 1: Sun's job. Some saying the reason the Knicks fired Thibodeau
- 15:29Speaker 1: when they did is because they want that guy, and
- 15:31Speaker 1: to get that guy, they had to do this because
- 15:33Speaker 1: otherwise Bryant would go coach the Suns and he'd be
- 15:37Speaker 1: out in the desert hanging out with cactus, and they
- 15:39Speaker 1: didn't want that and all that stuff. The other read
- 15:44Speaker 1: on the gambling market. You got Kenny Atkinson, who's the
- 15:47Speaker 1: second choice, and he's the coach of the year who
- 15:51Speaker 1: lost to Indiana, so he knows a thing or two
- 15:53Speaker 1: about that in the playoffs. And then you've got the
- 15:56Speaker 1: usual rejects like Frank Vogel and Buden and names like that.
- 16:02Speaker 1: And then further page down, Pat Strake, Ewing, Mark Jackson,
- 16:09Speaker 1: long shots, unrealistic options, unrealistic options. And so now we
- 16:16Speaker 1: do not know, We do not know. Our crystal ball
- 16:19Speaker 1: is not working right now. We do not know who
- 16:20Speaker 1: the next coach or the Knicks is going to be,
- 16:22Speaker 1: but we do know what they're going to be like
- 16:25Speaker 1: and I will gare on tie the profile. You know
- 16:29Speaker 1: how the FBI does profiling of what they think some
- 16:34Speaker 1: whack a doodle is like what they're like. So here's
- 16:36Speaker 1: the profile of the next Knicks coach. Okay, the next
- 16:41Speaker 1: next coach will be an innovative, offensive mind players coach
- 16:48Speaker 1: who likes drinking oat milk and hanging out doing hot yoga,
- 16:54Speaker 1: drawing up plays on his iPad while doing hot yoga.
- 16:58Speaker 1: That'll be the next coach, right to the coddle coach,
- 17:02Speaker 1: because you go from a hard ass coach like Tom Thibodeau,
- 17:05Speaker 1: and the hard ass is relative. It's you know, it's
- 17:08Speaker 1: not that it's not a drill sergeant at Marine boot camp,
- 17:11Speaker 1: but it's it's like it's my NBA standards. So you
- 17:15Speaker 1: have a coddle coach who drives the mister softy truck.
- 17:19Speaker 1: You've got that. And that'll be somebody that comes in
- 17:22Speaker 1: here and like rub shoulders with you know, people hanging
- 17:25Speaker 1: out those art galleries over over and soho. You know,
- 17:27Speaker 1: the art gallery crowd, and it goes to fashion Week,
- 17:30Speaker 1: you know, and dresses up as you know, Fashion East
- 17:32Speaker 1: and all that stuff. Just everything that Tom Thibodeaux isn't
- 17:36Speaker 1: like he didn't Thibodau didn't care about all that crap.
- 17:39Speaker 1: He's just worried about coaching and obviously doesn't take any
- 17:42Speaker 1: pride in his personal appearance. He looks like Shrek, and
- 17:45Speaker 1: the next coach will not be that.

- 20:30Speaker 1: heard the latest on this, this is outstanding. This is
- 20:32Speaker 1: a ten out of ten this particular story. So we
- 20:36Speaker 1: learned that the coach of Seattle probably know who that
- 20:39Speaker 1: is because he's a nobody, Mike McDonald who had a
- 20:42Speaker 1: farm ei eioh. So Mike McDonald attempted to put the
- 20:47Speaker 1: key bosh to put the toothpaste back in the tube.
- 20:51Speaker 1: On the debate over the quarterback, whether or not Sam
- 20:57Speaker 1: Donald would be the quarterback in Seattle, McDonald was asked
- 21:01Speaker 1: by some of the Seattle media about the possibility that
- 21:05Speaker 1: someone other than Sam Donald would be the quarterback. The
- 21:09Speaker 1: Seahawks have added Drew Locke, who also can't play, and
- 21:13Speaker 1: Jalen Milroe from the draft. Anyway, here is Mike McDonald
- 21:17Speaker 1: the Seattle coach, commenting on the Sam Donald status and
- 21:23Speaker 1: whether or not he'll be playing tailists that would lead
- 21:26Speaker 1: to a different quarterback.
- 21:27Speaker 3: You guys are crazy.
- 21:28Speaker 1: There's no way to ask the question with that sound
- 21:30Speaker 1: like an idiot.
- 21:31Speaker 3: I respect you got to ask it, but like there's
- 21:32Speaker 3: you guys, it's just a crazy question. There's just not
- 21:35Speaker 3: gonna like Sam's are starting quarterback. We love him, He's
- 21:37Speaker 3: doing a tremendous job. God forbid, you know you're you're
- 21:40Speaker 3: the worst player of all time because you made one
- 21:42Speaker 3: bad throw or one bad decisions Like that is not
- 21:44Speaker 3: what we're trying to build. We want these guys to
- 21:47Speaker 3: go prepare the right way and then when I go
- 21:49Speaker 3: out on the practice field, go freaking let it rip.
- 21:51Speaker 1: And then we'll go fix it.
- 21:52Speaker 3: We'll go we got time, it's it's June third. We'll go, Okay,
- 21:55Speaker 3: they're gonna get plenty of reps. We'll get those things fixed.
- 21:58Speaker 3: I mean, Sam made a correll up at great throws yesterday.
- 22:01Speaker 3: He's gashing us on third and goal to start the
- 22:03Speaker 3: start the start the day out too. So yeah, that's
- 22:06Speaker 3: kind of a crazy question.
- 22:07Speaker 1: I don't think it's a crazy question at all. I
- 22:10Speaker 1: think his answer is rather crazy. So Donald signed a
- 22:13Speaker 1: three year contract with a bunch of escape patches because
- 22:15Speaker 1: Seattle knows they signed a crappy quarterback. It's up to
- 22:19Speaker 1: one hundred million dollars. Was really just a one year deal,
- 22:22Speaker 1: and the Vikings can flush him away, or the Seahawks
- 22:25Speaker 1: can flush him away like the Vikings did and all that.
- 22:27Speaker 1: So we know that Seattle added as we mentioned Jalen
- 22:30Speaker 1: Milroe who had issues at Alabama, and Drew Locke who
- 22:34Speaker 1: can't play. So let us discuss the question how much
- 22:38Speaker 1: weight do you give the Seahawks coach Mike McDonald, as
- 22:43Speaker 1: you just heard giving a vote of confidence to Sam
- 22:47Speaker 1: Donald even before training camp. Sam Donald needs a vote
- 22:50Speaker 1: of confidence. So I've got in flight Meal, Happy Hour,
- 22:54Speaker 1: and Wimbledon, and we will combine all of these things
- 22:58Speaker 1: together and we are going to make an updated resume.
- 23:03Speaker 1: Cause I believe Mike McDonald, if he truly is fully
- 23:08Speaker 1: invested in Sam Donald, he will be let go as
- 23:13Speaker 1: the Seattle coach didn't do anything. He's not just a
- 23:16Speaker 1: generic coach. He's a jack, just a coach, nothing special there.
- 23:20Speaker 1: So my first thought on this, the full Sam Donald experience.
- 23:26Speaker 1: If you're Sam Donald, and you think you're locked in
- 23:29Speaker 1: as the start, if you believe all that bull crap
- 23:31Speaker 1: that the coach said, you might want to relook at
- 23:36Speaker 1: some things in your life. There, go start biting your fingernails.
- 23:39Speaker 1: Now it is OTAs just workouts, shorts and visors and
- 23:44Speaker 1: things like that for the most part. And Sam Donald
- 23:48Speaker 1: already already smelling like leftover tuna fish that's been sitting
- 23:53Speaker 1: out in the sun. It's just as you can't make
- 23:57Speaker 1: this up, the heartburn adding up there those boots on
- 24:02Speaker 1: the ground. Boots on the ground say that Sam Donald
- 24:04Speaker 1: was intercepted multiple times in the first open practice session
- 24:09Speaker 1: with the media, tossed a pair of interceptions in the
- 24:12Speaker 1: seven on seven portion of the practice. And so here's
- 24:16Speaker 1: where I sait from thirty six thousand feet up in
- 24:18Speaker 1: the sky. The Seattle Seahawks coach Mike McDonald is enjoying
- 24:24Speaker 1: a nice in flight meal. And that meal is a
- 24:27Speaker 1: bowl of cereal. It's honey, ohs or in this case
- 24:31Speaker 1: just owes as an oracle of obvious, oracle of obvious.
- 24:36Speaker 1: And I'm gonna go to the boiler plate on what
- 24:39Speaker 1: I am supposed to play, What I'm supposed to say
- 24:42Speaker 1: as an NFL coach, it is the disfunction junction how
- 24:47Speaker 1: do you function? That is the full Sam Donald experience.
- 24:52Speaker 1: And the Seahawks are just finding that out there that
- 24:54Speaker 1: you're having to give a vote of confidence to Sam Donald.
- 25:02Speaker 1: So really what Seattle's doing, they're playing the sweep Steaks
- 25:05Speaker 1: and they're like, you can get seven or eight or
- 25:08Speaker 1: nine games out of Sam Donald. It's never a good
- 25:11Speaker 1: thing when you have to play hide the quarterback. And
- 25:14Speaker 1: the only way Sam Donald can be effective, and it
- 25:17Speaker 1: only works for a limited amount of time, is hide
- 25:19Speaker 1: the quarterback, play hide the course. And at some point
- 25:22Speaker 1: you can't hide the quarterback when you play a good
- 25:24Speaker 1: team late in the ear and then you're exposed. You're
- 25:27Speaker 1: pants and you're out there and you don't have an
- 25:30Speaker 1: underwear on. You're just pants the whole thing. And so
- 25:35Speaker 1: there's all kinds of loopholes and get out of the
- 25:37Speaker 1: contract and all that escape patches. And let's clip and
- 25:41Speaker 1: save this quote by McDonald who had to say that
- 25:44Speaker 1: right the Oracle of the Obvious, And then we'll look
- 25:47Speaker 1: back at this. I'll save this in my notes and
- 25:49Speaker 1: then when we get the week five or six, and
- 25:51Speaker 1: Sam Donald is no longer playing quarterback for the Seattle Seahawks.
- 25:55Speaker 1: We can revisit this and we point our finger and
- 25:58Speaker 1: laugh and goof on Seattle, and that's always fun to do.
- 26:00Speaker 1: That's that's good talk radio. So page two to Houston
- 26:05Speaker 1: we go, speaking of the quarterback shuffle. You've got drama
- 26:10Speaker 1: in the lone Star state, as Demico Ryans. Demko Ryans,
- 26:15Speaker 1: the head coach of the Houston football team, has announced
- 26:19Speaker 1: he has quote no concerns close quote about quarterback c J. Stroud,
- 26:26Speaker 1: who has been limited from doing the thing that all
- 26:29Speaker 1: quarterbacks seemingly need to do, throwing the ball during spring
- 26:33Speaker 1: practice due to quote general soreness. So you know, at
- 26:38Speaker 1: this point what c J. Stroud, He's in his fifties.
- 26:41Speaker 1: Body gets a little sort Oh no, he's actually in
- 26:43Speaker 1: his twenties. He's in his twenties. So the Texans opened
- 26:47Speaker 1: OTA's back on May twenty eight, Yeah, twenty eight, and
- 26:50Speaker 1: c J. Stroud, c J. Stroud of the Texans has
- 26:53Speaker 1: not thrown passes during any of the practices that are
- 26:57Speaker 1: open to the media. Now others are singing a different tune.
- 27:03Speaker 1: So the Texans coach Tamiko Rans is like this there's
- 27:06Speaker 1: nothing to see here. Everything is fine. Don't worry about this. Okay.
- 27:12Speaker 1: Now there's a conflicting report that is out singing a
- 27:16Speaker 1: different tune making it clear that the fans should panic.
- 27:22Speaker 1: Panic at the disco. Panic at the Disco says, you
- 27:26Speaker 1: should not believe what the coach said. You shouldn't believe
- 27:29Speaker 1: the statements from the team there. With the Texans, there
- 27:31Speaker 1: should be concerns about c Jay Stroud. So let us
- 27:38Speaker 1: discuss as we do this show in early June twenty
- 27:41Speaker 1: twenty five. Should the Texans be quote concerned close quote
- 27:47Speaker 1: about quarterback C. J. Stroud and his health. So I'm
- 27:51Speaker 1: actually shaking my head no on this, I'm shaking my head. No. Now,
- 27:55Speaker 1: you know, Ben Nuts, you're just supposed to panic right away.
- 27:58Speaker 1: That's your bad job about you. Okay. As you know,
- 28:01Speaker 1: we look at this on a case by case basis
- 28:04Speaker 1: as possibly tweaked something and working out lifting weights or whatever.
- 28:09Speaker 1: And even if he did, whooped, damn do. That's what
- 28:12Speaker 1: I say, whooped, damn do. It's happy hour, happy hour,
- 28:17Speaker 1: which is code for it's amateur hour. In the hot
- 28:21Speaker 1: take factory, there is some issues with the machinery here
- 28:25Speaker 1: in the warehouse, and it's everything's clickbait these days. I
- 28:31Speaker 1: get it. We live in the clickbait world. That's how
- 28:33Speaker 1: the game works. Anyone says, well, it's just clickbait. Everything clickbait,
- 28:37Speaker 1: like that's how it is because that's how people consume media. Clicking. Well,
- 28:42Speaker 1: I don't believe it in clickbait. Yes, you do. You
- 28:44Speaker 1: click on things. You're part of the problem. You are
- 28:47Speaker 1: part of the problem. But they're not concerned about c J.
- 28:52Speaker 1: Stroud's health. The people that are putting this out there,
- 28:56Speaker 1: I don't think they should be. I do think there
- 28:57Speaker 1: any real concern for to c J. Stroud because of
- 29:01Speaker 1: why the calendar, that would be why there is no
- 29:05Speaker 1: legitimate concern. You're stirring the pot. You're looking for something.
- 29:10Speaker 1: You're looking for a little something, and that's a little
- 29:14Speaker 1: something that you can latch onto and get your tentacles
- 29:17Speaker 1: into and all that stuff. And we can see now
- 29:20Speaker 1: now if you want to find out when there is concern,
- 29:22Speaker 1: that'll be in late July. I think around July twenty
- 29:27Speaker 1: twenty third, twenty four to twenty fifth, somewhere in that
- 29:29Speaker 1: area is when training camps open up in the NFL.
- 29:33Speaker 1: And if CJ. Stroud has decided to have a camp
- 29:36Speaker 1: out in the injury tent. When the real training camp
- 29:39Speaker 1: opens up in a month and a half, then we
- 29:42Speaker 1: can revisit this. Up until that point, that's premature concern
- 29:47Speaker 1: and I'm not gonna have and I'm not a Texans
- 29:49Speaker 1: fan anyone. I'll let mister Irrigation worry about that. That's
- 29:53Speaker 1: and the deacon, I'll let those guys worry about now.
- 29:56Speaker 1: Final point to Jerry's world, And speaking of absurd and
- 30:02Speaker 1: amateur hour, this is theater of the absurd, theater of
- 30:04Speaker 1: the absurd. From Jerry's world, we have learned now that
- 30:08Speaker 1: the Cowboys defensive back Trevon Diggs, That's right, the brother
- 30:14Speaker 1: of Stefon Digs, Trevon Diggs, is in line to lose
- 30:21Speaker 1: five hundred thousand dollars. Now, what did he do? Did
- 30:24Speaker 1: he violate the team rules? Was he on the boat
- 30:28Speaker 1: with the bikini models and the pink candy which I'm
- 30:32Speaker 1: sure was not cocaine in Miami? Was he on the
- 30:34Speaker 1: boat with his brother? No, So, how did he lose
- 30:38Speaker 1: the or how is he going to lose the five
- 30:40Speaker 1: hundred thousand dollars by not showing up to the team
- 30:45Speaker 1: facility by missing the team's offseason workout. So let's discuss
- 30:52Speaker 1: Cowboys defensive back Travon Diggs in line to lose five
- 30:57Speaker 1: hundred thousand smack a rus because he's missing off season workouts.
- 31:04Speaker 1: How does that taste?
- 31:06Speaker 2: All?
- 31:06Speaker 1: Right? So it tastes like Sardinian cheese, which I am
- 31:10Speaker 1: told is the cheese that is made. It is maggot
- 31:14Speaker 1: infested cheese. Yum yum to my Tom, Tom, that's what
- 31:19Speaker 1: it is now in London, and it's Wimbleton time coming
- 31:24Speaker 1: up here. But in London they would call this an
- 31:28Speaker 1: unforced error. That's tennis lingo. It's an unforced error, is
- 31:32Speaker 1: what it is. Diggs is in his mid twenties. He
- 31:35Speaker 1: got a good sized contract. He supposedly has some kind
- 31:39Speaker 1: of internal beef with the training staff there with the
- 31:43Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys, and so he is willing to forfeit five
- 31:48Speaker 1: hundred thousand dollars to rehab his knee in Miami, Miami, Miami,
- 31:56Speaker 1: Miami South Beach, staying away from the cowboy for the
- 32:00Speaker 1: price tag on that five hundred thousand dollars. Five hundred
- 32:04Speaker 1: thousand dollars. This is boxers to me? Now, am I
- 32:07Speaker 1: completely out of touch. You're just an old head. You
- 32:09Speaker 1: don't know what you're talking about. Bad these kids, they
- 32:12Speaker 1: got so much money they can flush away five hundred
- 32:14Speaker 1: thousand dollars. Digs the dunce, digs the dunce. Do you
- 32:20Speaker 1: dig it? Come on, I cannot imagine throwing away five
- 32:27Speaker 1: hundred thousand dollars like it's lunch money, and just I
- 32:31Speaker 1: don't need it, I don't want it. I don't I'm
- 32:36Speaker 1: getting rid of it. And all you have to do
- 32:38Speaker 1: is show up. It's not like you have to go
- 32:41Speaker 1: through some rigorous workout. You just merely have to show up.
- 32:44Speaker 1: And that's it. Like, what planet are we on at
- 32:48Speaker 1: this point? What planet are we?
- 32:50Speaker 2: Like?
- 32:50Speaker 1: Five hundred thousand you could buy a house. In some places,
- 32:55Speaker 1: you can buy multiple houses for that kind of money,
- 32:57Speaker 1: depending where you're investing your money. Heck, you could get
- 33:02Speaker 1: a fast food franchise. I assume you could put the
- 33:05Speaker 1: down payment and get a big chunk of like a
- 33:08Speaker 1: what a burger? What a burger? What a mistake for
- 33:12Speaker 1: Travon Diggs. Money makes money. Instead, you're just gonna say,
- 33:15Speaker 1: I don't, I don't even hang out here, have a
- 33:19Speaker 1: my tie with my friend Weedman Hippi in Miami who
- 33:23Speaker 1: calls the show occasionally and just have a grand old time.
- 33:26Speaker 2: Why not be sure to catch live editions of The
- 33:29Speaker 2: Ben Maller Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm
- 33:32Speaker 2: Pacific And a Long Time.
- 33:33Speaker 1: Again Degree in a planet Far far is one gets
- 33:40Speaker 1: Grail all right, Jamallard the third degree time and here's cool.
- 33:45Speaker 4: It was recently reported that the Vikings are concerned with
- 33:48Speaker 4: JJ McCarthy that, no matter what the team says, they
- 33:51Speaker 4: wanted Sam Donald back. Ben, do you think Viking fans
- 33:54Speaker 4: are in for a tough season ahead?
- 33:56Speaker 1: Well, I don't believe that they wanted Sam Donald b
- 33:59Speaker 1: They just the Aaron Rodgers thing. You can hide a quarterback,
- 34:05Speaker 1: and we saw it last season with the Minnesota Vikings.
- 34:08Speaker 1: They played hide a quarterback. And they've got a.
- 34:10Speaker 5: Coach who knows how to do that based on what
- 34:13Speaker 5: they were able to pull off last year with that
- 34:18Speaker 5: coaching staff and Sam Darnold and how many wins they
- 34:21Speaker 5: got and all that stuff, like listen, Kevin.
- 34:23Speaker 1: O'connen knows what he's doing. They've got good receivers. So
- 34:26Speaker 1: the Vikings. The baseline for the Vikings is ten or
- 34:29Speaker 1: eleven wins They're not gonna get any worse than that.
- 34:31Speaker 1: They'll be in that area. They're not gonna be as
- 34:33Speaker 1: good as they were last year, but they'll be in
- 34:35Speaker 1: that area. And if McCarthy by the end of the
- 34:37Speaker 1: season can actually not poop the bed like Donald did,
- 34:42Speaker 1: they'll be better in the postseason.
- 34:43Speaker 4: Next After clinching a spot in the NBA Finals, Pacers
- 34:46Speaker 4: center Miles Turner said, well, this is a new blueprint
- 34:49Speaker 4: for the league.
- 34:50Speaker 1: Man.
- 34:50Speaker 4: I think the years of super teams and stacking talent,
- 34:53Speaker 4: that's not of effect as effective as it once was.
- 34:56Speaker 4: But do you think Indiana and OKSE have written a
- 34:59Speaker 4: blueprint for the rest of the league.
- 35:01Speaker 5: No, because no one's gonna watch this and people on
- 35:04Speaker 5: Park Avenue in Manhattan are going to freak out.
- 35:08Speaker 1: The NBA is a television show.
- 35:10Speaker 5: This is bad television for the you know, the average viewer,
- 35:14Speaker 5: and so they.
- 35:15Speaker 1: Will change the rules and this this will not.
- 35:18Speaker 4: Continue next On Monday, Austin Ainge, a son of Danny Inge,

- 36:27Speaker 6: into summer, and you know what summertime means, Ben, Oh,
- 36:32Speaker 6: what's that hot girl summer we hit in the streets.
- 36:35Speaker 6: This is the time to find your new love.
- 36:38Speaker 1: Okay, all right, fair enough. We have a few questions.
- 36:42Speaker 1: Do you want to answer them or yeah, okay, all right.
- 36:45Speaker 1: Mike the leprechaun from the Greater Boston area says, should
- 36:49Speaker 1: a girlfriend be concerned if her boyfriend has exotic pets
- 36:53Speaker 1: at the house such as loud parakeets, hedgehogs, and wild geese.
- 36:59Speaker 6: Yes. Also, if your boyfriend identifies as a leprechaun, that
- 37:03Speaker 6: can also be a big red flag.
- 37:06Speaker 1: What if that's the cosplay though, I mean, if that's
- 37:10Speaker 1: your king, then yes, you just have to find a
- 37:13Speaker 1: woman that's in the leprechaw.
- 37:14Speaker 6: The weird thing about animals, though, is you can't have
- 37:17Speaker 6: a guy who likes to do it in front of
- 37:19Speaker 6: his animals.
- 37:20Speaker 1: Why is that?
- 37:21Speaker 6: What do you mean why is that? Because that's weird.
- 37:25Speaker 6: It's like letting his dog sit in the room and
- 37:27Speaker 6: watch you, weirdo.
- 37:31Speaker 1: The dog does not interact. Yeah, exactly what I mean.
- 37:34Speaker 1: Like the dog doesn't know. The dog doesn't know what's
- 37:37Speaker 1: going on. The dogs he's trying to live his life.
- 37:40Speaker 6: That's like the newborn parents who are like, oh, well,
- 37:43Speaker 6: the baby's in the crib on the other side of
- 37:44Speaker 6: the room. It's finally like, no, it's still weird.
- 37:47Speaker 1: JT. The Wingman writes in he says, can I take
- 37:50Speaker 1: my fiance to a comic book lover's convention to help
- 37:55Speaker 1: with setting the mood and the bedroom for us? Well,
- 37:57Speaker 1: there's nothing that's you talk about arousing someone you take
- 38:01Speaker 1: them to like a comic con Holy craft. Yes, I
- 38:04Speaker 1: mean there are so many babies that are produced at
- 38:07Speaker 1: Comic Con every year it's wild.
- 38:09Speaker 6: Honestly, I want to look into the statistics of that.
- 38:12Speaker 6: Ben because Comicon has some really really good looking people
- 38:17Speaker 6: dressed in some awesome outfit sin City.
- 38:21Speaker 1: What's more impressive Comic Con or the Furry convention in
- 38:25Speaker 1: Pittsburgh Every year it's Comic Con Comic Con. It is hard.
- 38:29Speaker 1: I understand I've not done this. I don't wear one,
- 38:32Speaker 1: But if you're wearing the costume, I think it's hard
- 38:35Speaker 1: to produce a situation that would lead you to ways.
- 38:39Speaker 6: So Comic Coon might have more babies that come from this.
