Speaker 1: absolutely way to go. So our lead story. But I
3:14
Speaker 1: do want to alert all the listeners down the line
3:17
Speaker 1: and the the affiliates the verbal octagon. We have not
3:21
Speaker 1: done this in twenty twenty six. I haven't done this
3:22
Speaker 1: in a long time. Used to be a staple of
3:24
Speaker 1: the show. But the verbal Octagon will be open for business.
3:27
Speaker 1: We are going to have Blind Scott representing the Patriots
3:33
Speaker 1: in three rounds of verbal chaos in the octagon, and
3:38
Speaker 1: we will have him going against someone I've never heard
3:41
Speaker 1: of named John in Colorado. So we'll see how that goes.
3:44
Speaker 1: That'll be coming up later this hour. Get your bets in,
3:48
Speaker 1: no fixing, No funny business here. I don't know what
3:51
Speaker 1: the line is on DraftKings. I'll have to check. But
3:52
Speaker 1: our lead this hour from Indianapolis, and we have a
3:56
Speaker 1: true crime mystery in the NFL. Yeah. Are those still popular?
4:04
Speaker 1: Those true crime shows? Are they still I don't know.
4:06
Speaker 1: I don't know if they're still popular. If you haven't
4:08
Speaker 1: seen it, perhaps not. We have learned that the FBI,
4:13
Speaker 1: better known by that name rather than the Federal Bureau
4:17
Speaker 1: of Investigations, is looking into the death of former Colts
4:21
Speaker 1: owner Jim Ersay and the doctor who was supplying him
4:28
Speaker 1: all of those pills and whatnot, huge amounts of opioids
4:33
Speaker 1: and ketamine and injections and all that stuff, all that stuff.
4:38
Speaker 1: And so from the story it was reported by the
4:41
Speaker 1: Washington Post, they said, the same California based doctor Ersa
4:46
Speaker 1: lives in indian He lived in Indianapolis, live anywhere now,
4:49
Speaker 1: but Ursa in He had a doctor in California who
4:53
Speaker 1: also signed his death certificate, the same one that was
4:57
Speaker 1: handing him all the good stuff and ruled the day natural.
5:01
Speaker 1: All right, So that is a good jumping off point.
5:04
Speaker 1: Let us discuss again the FBI. The question is the
5:08
Speaker 1: FBI sniffing around the doctor who provided Colts owner Jim
5:13
Speaker 1: Mersay his opie opiods. So how do you read this one?
5:18
Speaker 1: All right? How do you read this one? So my observations,
5:21
Speaker 1: I got deep pockets, nanny pod, and tub sales. Pitch again,
5:27
Speaker 1: deep pockets, nanny pod and tub sales pitch. And we'll
5:30
Speaker 1: put all of these things together. One two, three, n ABC.
5:34
Speaker 1: So number one, number one a little faster number one. No,
5:40
Speaker 1: that was better. That was better. So this is not
5:45
Speaker 1: the Jim Mersey story. Is not a who done it?
5:50
Speaker 1: It is a how much is it? Story? In my opinion,
5:54
Speaker 1: it's a sad story, right, somebody dies, a sad thing. However,
5:58
Speaker 1: I don't believe this is worthy of violins. You know
6:01
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. We don't need to play the violin.
6:03
Speaker 1: Jim Irsay was a lot of things. He was quite
6:06
Speaker 1: the character. He was good for what I do because
6:08
Speaker 1: he said's anythings? And I appreciate people like that. If
6:12
Speaker 1: everyone did the same thing, boy, life would be boring.
6:15
Speaker 1: And so ever, say it was a character. He was
6:17
Speaker 1: and wasn't the greatest owner in the world. But who
6:20
Speaker 1: cares because he said some wackadoodle stuff, and we love that.
6:23
Speaker 1: We love that he also had demons. We all have demons, right,
6:26
Speaker 1: everyone's got demons. He had demons. He was an addict.
6:29
Speaker 1: It was very open about that. It was painful, and
6:32
Speaker 1: this went on for decades. And one thing I know
6:36
Speaker 1: people in my world. I'm sure you have people in
6:37
Speaker 1: your world that are addicted to drugs or whatever. Alcohol.
6:41
Speaker 1: You always find if you're an addict, you're always going
6:43
Speaker 1: to find your fix. It's like water finding a crack, right,
6:46
Speaker 1: It's the water's going to find the crack. Well, there's
6:48
Speaker 1: no crack. Well, there's a crack. You didn't realize it.
6:50
Speaker 1: The water found it. And the other thing I know
6:54
Speaker 1: from I'm not rich, but I know some people that
6:57
Speaker 1: are rich. And when you have deep pockets, you can
7:00
Speaker 1: find whatever you need, right, And especially if you're an
7:02
Speaker 1: addic and you have a lot of cash, there's always
7:06
Speaker 1: a doctor feel good. Right, There's always a doctor feel
7:09
Speaker 1: good willing to play pharmacist for hire. Now that said,
7:15
Speaker 1: this is also one of those textbook one percent justice.
7:19
Speaker 1: You know how there's like different different things. And when
7:22
Speaker 1: regular people die because they're addicts and they found a
7:27
Speaker 1: doctor that is running a buffet of pills for them,
7:31
Speaker 1: it's bubcus. Right, they get bupkus. There's no investigation. That's it.
7:36
Speaker 1: It's kind of a shrug. Maybe you get the emoji,
7:38
Speaker 1: the shrug emoji, and then that's it. You move on. However,
7:42
Speaker 1: when a billionaire who happens to own an NFL team
7:46
Speaker 1: keels over in the same situation, suddenly it is CSI
7:52
Speaker 1: rehab clinic. And we've seen some high profile cases over
7:55
Speaker 1: the years. I don't know how old you are. They
7:56
Speaker 1: should be a musician named Michael Jackson. He was kind
7:58
Speaker 1: of famous. His doctor was giving him all kinds of stuff.
8:03
Speaker 1: It was convicted, went to jail. More recently, the if
8:07
Speaker 1: you watch the show Friends back in the day, Matthew
8:09
Speaker 1: Perry who died in I think it was Malibu, and
8:13
Speaker 1: there's similar situation there. So these people had a lot
8:16
Speaker 1: of money, they were famous people, and they were able
8:19
Speaker 1: to find doctors. According to one was convicted. I don't
8:22
Speaker 1: know what happened with the I haven't kept track of
8:24
Speaker 1: the Matthew Perrys. So, but they had there's a lot
8:26
Speaker 1: of there's a lot of opportunity. Uh, when you when
8:30
Speaker 1: you've got the money, and so wealth buys confusion. It
8:35
Speaker 1: also buys you plausible deniability. Now, I want to be clear,
8:38
Speaker 1: I got a very passionate reaction. Last year we talked
8:42
Speaker 1: about the sad story involving the pitcher Tyler Skaggs of
8:46
Speaker 1: the Angels, and he also was a drug addict, and he,
8:50
Speaker 1: you know, he died from an overdose at a hotel
8:54
Speaker 1: room in Texas and the Angels were playing the Rangers
8:56
Speaker 1: and the person that was giving him the drugs in
9:01
Speaker 1: that case is currently in jail, will be in jail
9:06
Speaker 1: pretty much the rest of his life. And I had
9:09
Speaker 1: said I did not believe that that warranted a conviction
9:14
Speaker 1: because that was a couple of junkies that were sharing drugs.
9:17
Speaker 1: They were both drug addicts. And so to me, this
9:20
Speaker 1: is different than Jim irsey story. And the reason it's different,
9:23
Speaker 1: I'll say why, is because doctors, unlike just regular people
9:27
Speaker 1: that are addicted to drugs, they take the Hippocratic oath right,
9:30
Speaker 1: And when you take the hypocritic oath, which is the
9:32
Speaker 1: foundational ethical code of medicine for physicians, and I think
9:35
Speaker 1: we most of us know that we learned that in school.
9:37
Speaker 1: And so when you do that, you emphasize the principles
9:41
Speaker 1: of things like do no harm, right, do no harm
9:46
Speaker 1: and patient you get to be quiet about patients of
9:49
Speaker 1: the confidentiality and all that stuff, and so all of
9:52
Speaker 1: those things go into it. And so it's different when
9:54
Speaker 1: you're a doctor. When you're handing out the opioids like
10:00
Speaker 1: tic TACs, it's problematic as opposed again to somebody who
10:05
Speaker 1: is a low level staffer for the Angels and was
10:08
Speaker 1: also a drug addict, and Tyler Skaggs reached out to
10:11
Speaker 1: him to get drugs. To me, that's a different situation,
10:12
Speaker 1: all right. Now we move away from that's sad tale.
10:17
Speaker 1: We go to the Bay Area where John Lynch the
10:21
Speaker 1: story still has legs the GM of the Niners confirming
10:24
Speaker 1: confirming John Lynch that wide receiver Brandon Iuc will not return.
10:28
Speaker 1: We talked about this in a previous episode of the show.
10:30
Speaker 1: John Lynch said he has played his last snap. Now
10:33
Speaker 1: we are told the Niners are all horny to get
10:35
Speaker 1: their hands on Vikings. Wide receiver Jordan Addison, who played
10:39
Speaker 1: at Pitt and SC was a very good college player
10:42
Speaker 1: and had a great rookie year in the NFL for
10:44
Speaker 1: the Minnesota football team. So the theory is based on
10:47
Speaker 1: what I understand. A minute long deliberation of the available
10:50
Speaker 1: information that Jordan Addison would slide in to the Niners
10:56
Speaker 1: and become the primary pass catcher and not likely sending
11:02
Speaker 1: Brandon Ayac back to Minnesota. Now, why would Minnesota want
11:04
Speaker 1: to get to get rid of Jordan Addison. Well, there's
11:08
Speaker 1: some financial stuff, but it's also he's just become a knucklehead.
11:12
Speaker 1: Buffoonery has been taking place here. So Addison's production is strong,
11:17
Speaker 1: although it's not going the right direction of the off
11:20
Speaker 1: field stuff. The buffoonery is the story here for Jordan Addison.
11:24
Speaker 1: So the question on this one for the class, and
11:28
Speaker 1: you're in the class. So the question is the forty
11:31
Speaker 1: nine ers, According to various outposts making efforts to this offseason,
11:37
Speaker 1: they have targeted Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison as a
11:42
Speaker 1: guy they want do you approve or disprove? As you know,
11:45
Speaker 1: it's very important. I'm at the bully pulpit here and
11:48
Speaker 1: at the bully pulpit very important that what I say matters.
11:52
Speaker 1: So I approve the Vikings going for Jordan Addison with
11:59
Speaker 1: the qualifier of adult supervision. The talent this guy is
12:04
Speaker 1: absolutely is wonderful. The Smarts does not have a high
12:08
Speaker 1: football IQ. Okay, don't ask. Jordan Addison can play at
12:14
Speaker 1: a very high level. He's got the tools in the toolbox. Unfortunately,
12:19
Speaker 1: the toolbox is missing the instruction manual. So if you
12:22
Speaker 1: get him, you're gonna have to go online and see
12:24
Speaker 1: can I get the instruction man? Well we don't. We
12:26
Speaker 1: don't send that out. Well why not? I need it?
12:28
Speaker 1: I need the instruction man. Well, we don't do it anymore.
12:30
Speaker 1: I can send it to your phone. I don't have
12:32
Speaker 1: a smartphone. I have a dumb phone. Okay, you're screwed.
12:34
Speaker 1: That's it. So that's why he'll be available from Minnesota.
12:39
Speaker 1: If you believe these coupes, and really anyone's available, and
12:41
Speaker 1: anyone's can be available. Of the Dallas Mavericks can give
12:45
Speaker 1: away Luca, anyone can be available, and you can get
12:50
Speaker 1: Jordan Addison for pennies on the dollar because there is
12:53
Speaker 1: a hole in his ozone layer when it comes to
12:57
Speaker 1: decision making. So if you activate the Malard think, which
13:00
Speaker 1: we like to do, you bring Jordan Addison in, then
13:04
Speaker 1: you hold an A and E style intervention. You bring
13:07
Speaker 1: in that A and E style intervention. I'm talking the
13:10
Speaker 1: full babysitter package. You go on nanny pod you get
13:13
Speaker 1: the VIP package, you got the nanny, you got the babysitter,
13:17
Speaker 1: which I guess is different than a nanny. Then you've
13:19
Speaker 1: got the chauffeur. Got to have the show for god. Now,
13:22
Speaker 1: in San Francisco they got those self driving waymos, which
13:25
Speaker 1: in LA they turned into barbecues, but I don't know
13:26
Speaker 1: if they do it in San Francisco too. So get
13:28
Speaker 1: one of those, you know, give him a personal waymo
13:30
Speaker 1: and then you're good on that GPS ankle bracelet. If
13:33
Speaker 1: you have to, the court might give him that, anything
13:35
Speaker 1: to keep him from Buckley. Now he has served the
13:39
Speaker 1: vikings three years in the NFL. The three by three combo.
13:42
Speaker 1: What is the three x three combos, that's the meal,
13:45
Speaker 1: three by three combo meal. You've got three seasons in
13:48
Speaker 1: the NFL and three arrests. Three arrests in the NFL. Now,
13:52
Speaker 1: I believe the last one, which was at a hotel
13:54
Speaker 1: in Florida, I think the charges were not They didn't
13:57
Speaker 1: go forward with that case, but he still was arrested
13:59
Speaker 1: for it. But they didn't go worked out some kind
14:01
Speaker 1: of deal. It would appear and the production. That's the
14:05
Speaker 1: other issue. He's not terrible, but it's like a phone
14:09
Speaker 1: battery that every year you have your phone, the battery
14:12
Speaker 1: drains a little bit faster. You know what I'm talking about.
14:15
Speaker 1: It's paying the ass. Yeah, exactly. So that's the issue.
14:19
Speaker 1: He's had fewer catches Jordan Nattison, fewer yards and fewer
14:22
Speaker 1: touchdowns every season since his breakout rookie year. And nevertheless,
14:26
Speaker 1: here's the thing. I don't want to see the Niners
14:29
Speaker 1: do well. But if I was the Niners, I would say, well,
14:31
Speaker 1: we don't really need somebody that's acquired boy. We don't
14:34
Speaker 1: need acquire boy. So they need a weapon, and we
14:38
Speaker 1: know that brock Purty. Really, what the Niners are saying
14:40
Speaker 1: is brock Purty's not that good, is what they're saying. Right,
14:42
Speaker 1: He's not good enough. Some quarterbacks elevate wide receivers. Brock
14:46
Speaker 1: Purty is not. That guy's very average talent. They overpaid him.
14:49
Speaker 1: And this is an admission that he needs playmakers brock
14:53
Speaker 1: Purdy because he doesn't make players around him better. They
14:56
Speaker 1: make him better, he doesn't make them better. He doesn't
14:59
Speaker 1: elevate his teammates. That's really what the Niners are saying
15:02
Speaker 1: by this rumor getting out there and Kyle Shannon's offense.
15:05
Speaker 1: All you geniuses tell me how great this guy is
15:07
Speaker 1: as a coach and all that stuff. His offense is
15:09
Speaker 1: hyped as a finishing school and all that. So let's see.
15:14
Speaker 1: Let's see. Let's see Lance the bus driver, nest Do
15:16
Speaker 1: in the Bay, and Terry in England's a big forty
15:19
Speaker 1: nine er fan, and Jay Scoop and all these cats.
15:22
Speaker 1: Let's see how this goes all?
15:23
Speaker 2: Right?
15:23
Speaker 1: Now, final pointud Jersey. We go to Jersey. We are
15:27
Speaker 1: told that multiple defensive coordinator candidates, including two big names,
15:35
Speaker 1: two prominent names in the NFL, have said ix nay
15:39
Speaker 1: on the Jets say they have declined to even interview
15:43
Speaker 1: with Jets head coach Aaron Glenn. Now, the big Apple
15:45
Speaker 1: media having a field day, acting like termites finding soft wood.
15:50
Speaker 1: They are consuming it from the inside out. They're so excited.
15:54
Speaker 1: This is so great for them. So the question, how
15:57
Speaker 1: do you process Aaron Glenn and the j that's being
16:00
Speaker 1: rejected by multiple big name defensive coordinators. So this is
16:07
Speaker 1: not Harvard law right turning you down. This is not
16:11
Speaker 1: Harvard law. This is the NFL coaching market telling you, eh,
16:17
Speaker 1: and we're good, We're good. We don't need that now
16:22
Speaker 1: tells me that Aaron Glenn and the Jets front office
16:25
Speaker 1: aimed way too high, way too hot, right, and you
16:29
Speaker 1: outkicked your coverage. Our old morning guy Klay Travis would
16:33
Speaker 1: like that, but you OutKick your coverage right. You tripped
16:35
Speaker 1: over your own shoelaces and you landed faced first in
16:40
Speaker 1: a cloud of stardust. It's bad job by you. It
16:43
Speaker 1: shows you zero situational winners. They don't know where they
16:48
Speaker 1: rank on the food chain in the NFL, and you
16:51
Speaker 1: really have to know where you rank the Jets. I
16:54
Speaker 1: guess I'll use the analogy like this. Imagine if you will.
16:58
Speaker 1: You are a tech startup. You've got a little bit
17:00
Speaker 1: of venture capital, but you're not You're not loaded, right,
17:03
Speaker 1: you're a little venture capital. So you're a tech startup,
17:05
Speaker 1: you're going to fix the world and all that stuff.
17:07
Speaker 1: And you go out and you try to poach an
17:09
Speaker 1: Apple executive and you offer them a bunch of stock options,
17:14
Speaker 1: and the Apple executive looks at you and said, wait
17:18
Speaker 1: a minute, that's monopoly money, and said, well, I know
17:21
Speaker 1: it's monopoly money, but we want you to come work
17:23
Speaker 1: for us. We're hot to try start up well, no,
17:25
Speaker 1: but I work at Apple. I have real money. I
17:27
Speaker 1: don't need I do not need that monopoly money. But
17:31
Speaker 1: please come on, you're using the if you're the startup
17:35
Speaker 1: the Jets, you're using the tub sales pitch. What I
17:37
Speaker 1: call the tub sales pitch. You know what the tub
17:39
Speaker 1: sales pitch is. It's trust us bro that's the sales pitch.
17:45
Speaker 1: Just trust us brouh And we're building something. Yeah, that's it.
17:49
Speaker 1: That's a ticket. We're building something. It is an open
17:52
Speaker 1: secret that coaches. No, you go to the Jets, yeah,
17:55
Speaker 1: you'll make a decent amount of money, but you better
17:58
Speaker 1: not buy anything because the Jets have a stumble bump owner.
18:02
Speaker 1: The roster blows. There's chaos in the air everywhere. And
18:08
Speaker 1: so there's also a lack of job security for Aaron
18:11
Speaker 1: Glenn and so it appears they've said hard passed. You're
18:15
Speaker 1: gonna get someone obvious someone will take that job. It's
18:19
Speaker 1: kind of like going to Best Buy. The Jets are like,
18:21
Speaker 1: I think I gotta get a refrigerator, and so you
18:23
Speaker 1: look at the price of the refrigerators and they're really
18:25
Speaker 1: expensive and said, man, I can't afford that, And so
18:28
Speaker 1: you're not getting a shiny stainless steel model with the
18:31
Speaker 1: ice maker and all the bells and whistles and the
18:33
Speaker 1: dew hickeys and all that. You're in the back open
18:37
Speaker 1: box fridge, you know, the back where they have all
18:39
Speaker 1: the stuff. That's damage. You got dents on the door,
18:42
Speaker 1: it's missing the shelf. There's some kind of weird, funny
18:47
Speaker 1: humming sound thing. I don't know what that is, but
18:49
Speaker 1: don't worry about it. And by the way, all sales
18:52
Speaker 1: are final. All sales are final. Good luck, good luck,
18:59
Speaker 1: yikes it is. It's the Ben Mahler Show, and we
19:02
Speaker 1: have the verbal Octagon, so we're not gonna give out
19:05

19:07
Speaker 1: amount of time. And we're gonna have a guy from Boston,
19:11
Speaker 1: Blind Scott in the octagon ready to go, and then
19:15
Speaker 1: John in Colorado. I don't know who that is, and

22:41
Speaker 1: everyone about it, singing the Virtues of the Commonwealth. A
22:45

Speaker 7: Toucher and Hardy Show, the highest traded sports radio show,
23:16
Speaker 7: the Deco.
23:17
Speaker 1: All right, all right, we haven't started yet. We have
23:19
Speaker 1: not started yet. Calm down, sir, please. In the other corner,
23:23
Speaker 1: entering the squared audio circle. A man of mystery little
23:28
Speaker 1: is known. His name is John. He lives in Colorado.
23:34
Speaker 1: He will represent the Broncos. Will he live up to
23:37
Speaker 1: the standard? Or is this guy a tomato can from
23:41
Speaker 1: the Mile High City? Give it up to John in Colorado?
23:45
Speaker 1: Hello John, Well, are you ready for the pugilism?
23:48
Speaker 8: John?
23:49
Speaker 2: Good morning, Ben good music, Lorena, I'm Rocky, I'm John
23:54
Speaker 2: Denver is okay?
23:56
Speaker 1: All right, calm down, shut up, shut up, John. Here
23:59
Speaker 1: we go. Oh, this is bare knuckle boxing. So the
24:03
Speaker 1: rules of the Verbal Octagon. If you're new to the show,
24:05
Speaker 1: it's three rounds, three rounds, and it is the bloody
24:10
Speaker 1: knuckles is what it is. It's essentially bloody knuckles. And
24:14
Speaker 1: what we do is we go out and the issue here.
24:18
Speaker 1: This is a head to head battle. We've done this
24:21
Speaker 1: in the past. We've had the I think one of
24:23
Speaker 1: the last ones we did was the Southern Slam, which
24:25
Speaker 1: was that was he was known as Dad Gummet back
24:29
Speaker 1: in the day. Now, Sir scratch Off and Jed who fled.
24:31
Speaker 1: But it's three rounds. Round one is ten seconds each,
24:35
Speaker 1: so you're opening salvo only ten seconds. Round two to
24:38
Speaker 1: twenty seconds each to respond and rebut the opening round
24:42
Speaker 1: and then round three it is own like donkey gone,
24:49
Speaker 1: and that is where people go below the belt. Round
24:51
Speaker 1: three is going to be thirty seconds. He said, well,
24:55
Speaker 1: this is too short. This is too short. Trust me,
24:59
Speaker 1: it's too long. It's too long. So that is the
25:04
Speaker 1: Those are the rules, and we have given you the
25:07
Speaker 1: rules gentlemen before the fight, and you must protect yourself
25:11
Speaker 1: at all times and obey my verbal commands. There is
25:15
Speaker 1: no cursing. We'll be very clear about that. You are
25:18
Speaker 1: docked for one curse. If we hear a second curse,
25:21
Speaker 1: you are disqualified. That's it, so touch them up, good luck.
25:26
Speaker 1: We flipped the penny and we determined that blind Scott
25:32
Speaker 1: is going to go first, representing the Patriots, the Patriots
25:35
Speaker 1: of the Road team. So Blind Scott, we'll go first,
25:39
Speaker 1: and our judges will include myself, Ben Lorena, and Coop.
25:44
Speaker 1: We will also have the vote of the people on X,
25:48
Speaker 1: so get on X at Ben mall. That'll be up
25:50
Speaker 1: shortly after the octagon. So here we go, without further ado,
25:56
Speaker 1: let's get started. Here we go to blind Scott. We
25:59
Speaker 1: put ten seconds on the clockets the verbal octagon. You're
26:03
Speaker 1: on your way. Blind Scott go.
26:06
Speaker 7: Yeah, this is boomer hippie culture. Denver Broncos fans. These
26:09
Speaker 7: are turns, neffyl baby trust, fun living losers that brag
26:13
Speaker 7: about stuff that nobody cares about. They have a sense
26:15
Speaker 7: of the titlement. They ruined football.
26:17
Speaker 1: It's all right, that was it? Ten seconds there? Now
26:20
Speaker 1: I have noticed over this Blind Scott's been in this before,
26:23
Speaker 1: and there's different kinds of boxing. And I love box.
26:26
Speaker 1: I'm old, so I UFC wasn't a thing when I
26:28
Speaker 1: was growing up, and I love big fights. I've only
26:30
Speaker 1: really watched the heavyweight fights. I was able to go
26:32
Speaker 1: to the sum back in the day. But blind Scott
26:35
Speaker 1: he comes out there. There's nothing elegant about blind Scott.
26:38
Speaker 1: He just he's a swarmer. He tries to overwhelm the opponent,
26:42
Speaker 1: applying constant pressure, all right, and so that's what he does,
26:46
Speaker 1: all right. Now, entering the ring for round one from Colorado,
26:51
Speaker 1: a man of mystery representing the Denver Broncos. John in Colorado,
26:57
Speaker 1: go John.
26:57
Speaker 2: Ten seconds go, Hey, mama boy made the snow dump
27:03
Speaker 2: on you and you you're walking stick That.
27:10
Speaker 1: Docs were stopping too soon. You suck all right? That
27:12
Speaker 1: was only like six seconds. I believe that was it. Okay,
27:15
Speaker 1: so did not use the full All right, we're one rounded.
27:27
Speaker 1: This might be stopped. I don't know that. We might
27:29
Speaker 1: not make it to round three. This could be uh,
27:31
Speaker 1: we might have a knockout. Finish them Scott. All right,
27:37
Speaker 1: let's go to round two. You're listening to our live
27:39
Speaker 1: coverage of the verbal octagon here, as we have blind
27:43
Speaker 1: Scott representing the Patriots. Somebody, it says on my board
27:46
Speaker 1: here John in Colorado, who is representing the Denver Broncos,
27:51
Speaker 1: and they are duking it out with personal insults to
27:53
Speaker 1: decide who can do better in the octagon. Here the
27:56
Speaker 1: iconic squared audio circle where legends have battled, and now
28:01
Speaker 1: we've got these two knuckleheads. Okay, so the next round,
28:05
Speaker 1: as we pointed out, a little bit more time here
28:08
Speaker 1: in round number two, and so round two, you guys
28:12
Speaker 1: will get twenty seconds in round two. We changed the
28:16
Speaker 1: times a little bit, so twenty seconds in round two
28:18
Speaker 1: to respond and rebutt. We'll go back to blind Scott
28:23
Speaker 1: and the twenty seconds on the clock.
28:25
Speaker 7: You're on your way and go all right, Lorena, you're
28:29
Speaker 7: gonna respond to this. So Kennedy Stidham. She's a social
28:32
Speaker 7: media influencer. She sucks that life. She's Jared Stidham's wife.
28:37
Speaker 7: She shows her pregnant belly off like you wouldn't believe.
28:39
Speaker 7: She bought more followers than Mike North. She's completely irrelevant.
28:43
Speaker 7: There's Drake May's wife. She's and Michael May. She's a cook.
28:48
Speaker 7: She makes these beautiful YouTube All.
28:51
Speaker 1: Right, all right, well, interesting strategy. It's I don't want
28:54
Speaker 1: to give her I'm one of the judges, but I
28:56
Speaker 1: just have some thoughts on that. That was an interesting move.
28:59
Speaker 1: Now in Colorado choked in round one. He used about
29:02
Speaker 1: six seconds of ten seconds of time, so now he's
29:04
Speaker 1: got twenty seconds. There's almost no chance this goes well
29:07
Speaker 1: for John and Colorado, the man of mystery. John, it's
29:10
Speaker 1: round two of the verbal lockoun. You'll see our live
29:13
Speaker 1: coverage here on the Ben Malors Show.
29:14
Speaker 3: You're in the ring.
29:15
Speaker 1: Go ahead there, John and Colorado twenty seconds.
29:18
Speaker 2: Dared did him? Was dumped by the Patriots? How dare
29:23
Speaker 2: you blind? Scott in Bostom. The Patriots lose in Colorado
29:31
Speaker 2: every single time over his three we have the Rocky Mountains.
29:36
Speaker 1: You have alright? Alright, well, well quite the Matt was,
29:42
Speaker 1: how do we how's this fight sanctioned? Do we know?
29:45
Speaker 1: How is this?
29:45
Speaker 8: Sa?
29:45
Speaker 2: Yeah?
29:46
Speaker 1: Who put this on? Coop? You're the promoter? Coop? What
29:49
Speaker 1: are we doing here? You're fired? All right? Well, this
29:53
Speaker 1: is the final I think we've already I don't know
29:54
Speaker 1: do we need the final round? I guess we'll put
29:56
Speaker 1: the final round on. No knockout yet. You're listening. You
30:00
Speaker 1: are live coverage. It's the Verbal Octagon and these gentlemen
30:04
Speaker 1: going at it, and normally it's just an absolute backbreaker.
30:08
Speaker 1: It's not a lot of bobbing and weaving taking place here.
30:11
Speaker 1: It has not been a slugfest and pound profound. It's
30:15
Speaker 1: like a heavyweight versus a bantam weight. The last round. Now,
30:19
Speaker 1: both you gentlemen gonna be on the air. Let's let's
30:21
Speaker 1: limit this one with thirty seconds. We'll limit this to
30:23
Speaker 1: thirty seconds. Okay, thirty seconds to respond both on the air.
30:30
Speaker 1: Anyone curses, you're disqualified. We've got John and Colorado blind Scott.
30:34
Speaker 1: Verbal Octagon Round three. You're on the air, and go.
30:38
Speaker 7: Dude, your wife doesn't want to have sex with you.
30:40
Speaker 7: You're totally irrelevant. On the radio. You come on the
30:43
Speaker 7: station say wick of crappy things about me and bribe
30:46
Speaker 7: my cottails all the time. Dude, you're a piece of crap.
30:48
Speaker 7: I'm gonna go on a serial.
30:51
Speaker 3: No no, no, no, no, no no no.
30:55
Speaker 7: I can't stand this.
30:56
Speaker 1: Where is the where is the other? I don't even
30:58
Speaker 1: know where the other? I don't even hear them. What happened?
31:00
Speaker 2: It is?
31:00
Speaker 1: He just gave it. He's dead on the mat, He's
31:07
Speaker 1: down for the count. This was not the Rumble, not
31:14
Speaker 1: the rumble in the jungle. It was not the thriller
31:17
Speaker 1: in Manila. It was the snooze in the overnight. But
31:21
Speaker 1: there he goes, all right, Well, real quick, that's not
31:26
Speaker 1: I was going to have another segment, but let's just
31:28
Speaker 1: get to the judges' scorecards right now. All right. So
31:31
Speaker 1: the first round, that was a bad sign. So Scott
31:35
Speaker 1: came out and was vicious and just attack mode and
31:40
Speaker 1: overwhelmed this person claiming to be John in Colorado and
31:45
Speaker 1: just came at him, and as you would imagine, he
31:50
Speaker 1: staggered the opponent and blow by blow, you look at
31:54
Speaker 1: the CompuBox stats and I'm seeing this right, power punches
32:00
Speaker 1: blind Scott hit every one of his power punches, and
32:05
Speaker 1: John and Colorado did not hit one of them. So
32:08
Speaker 1: I scored this. You know, not even you know the
32:11
Speaker 1: way you score a fight artfile Lorraina knows this, probably not,
32:14
Speaker 1: but the way that you score a boxing match, it's
32:17
Speaker 1: like a ten nine thing most rounds and like ten
32:22
Speaker 1: to nine. Whoever you thought had the lead would be
32:26
Speaker 1: be like a ten to nine thing. So this though, no, no, no,
32:31
Speaker 1: this was like ten ten five is what this is?
32:36
Speaker 1: In round one and then round two around I don't
32:42
Speaker 1: know what you'd call round two. That was a blind
32:44
Speaker 1: Scott was so confident that he just started talking about
32:47
Speaker 1: Jared Stidham's wife for some reason. So I gave that
32:52
Speaker 1: to him. He was so arrogant, and he was right
32:54
Speaker 1: because there was no competition from John. So I gave
32:56
Speaker 1: that a ten to five. And then in round three,
32:59
Speaker 1: the final round, I didn't even hear John in Colorad
33:04
Speaker 1: until we told him to start talking. So but blind
33:06
Speaker 1: Scott went very dark. He went to a deep dark place,
33:10
Speaker 1: which I don't recommend. I don't think you should do that.
33:12
Speaker 1: He went below the belt, he did, But again I
33:16
Speaker 1: scored that. I was a little closer just because I
33:18
Speaker 1: had to deduct some points for Scott and give those
33:22
Speaker 1: points to John in Colorado. So I scored that final
33:26
Speaker 1: round there ten to eight in favor of the person.
33:30
Speaker 1: I gave the wind to Lorraine. How'd you score the
33:31
Speaker 1: fight real quick? Oh my goodness?
33:33
Speaker 5: Definitely first round blind Scott won ten to zero. I
33:39
Speaker 5: don't understand why John even joined. He did not seem
33:42
Speaker 5: to come with any type of oomph for you know,
33:46
Speaker 5: fire sauce. He had nothing. He had nothing going for,
33:48
Speaker 5: He had no gas in his tank. He didn't even
33:50
Speaker 5: try the last round.
33:51
Speaker 1: Where were you?
33:52
Speaker 5: Do you understand what you're supposed to be doing when
33:53
Speaker 5: you come on the air. Don't call back again until
33:56
Speaker 5: you're ready.
33:56
Speaker 1: To enter the ring. He's very angry, all right, wasting
34:00
Speaker 1: my time? Coop good.
34:06
Speaker 2: It was.
34:07
Speaker 8: It was a knockout in the in the second round.
34:09
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, we should have ended it.
34:11
Speaker 8: The third round was basically Scott just beating the lifeless
34:15
Speaker 8: body to a poll.
34:17
Speaker 1: Yeah, uh, Scott. It was personal for Scott at that point.
34:21
Speaker 1: It was a crime of passion for Scott, not just
34:24
Speaker 1: his wife.
34:25
Speaker 5: No one will have sex with a leprechaun, Okay, I mean,
34:28
Speaker 5: I'm sorry.
34:28
Speaker 1: Some of the similar rations Devin writes and He says,
34:31
Speaker 1: that is the worst octagon in history. Pathetic. The militia
34:34
Speaker 1: is the real loser in this. Uh yeah, down goes John.
34:38
Speaker 1: Fat Daddy says, down goes John, Down goes John. The
34:41
Speaker 1: Broncos don't have a chance having that loser represent them.
34:45
Speaker 1: Uh not, A burner says, is John the leprechaun? Alf
34:49
Speaker 1: the alien? Opinter says, is it just me or just
34:52
Speaker 1: the guy from Diners? A lot like a leprechaun?
34:55
Speaker 9: Uh?
34:55
Speaker 1: The Burner account checks in says this has to be
34:57
Speaker 1: the weakest octagon on Big Ben Big board. Oh yeah,
35:01
Speaker 1: this is the kind of octagon that will get us canceled.
35:03
Speaker 1: This is you know that the famous thing in Hollywood
35:05
Speaker 1: they say, jump the shark, which is an old sitcom.
35:08
Speaker 1: Was it Happy Days? I think, yeah, yeah, they had
35:13
Speaker 1: Phonsie jumping a shark and that ended that show. Supposedly,
35:19
Speaker 1: this very well could end the octagon, very well could
35:22
Speaker 1: end the octagon. This might be it. So do I
35:24
Speaker 1: even need to put on X? I guess I will
35:26
Speaker 1: put it up there just to see how crazy this gets.
35:28
Speaker 1: But all right, well we tried. Yeah, not everything's your masterpiece,
35:34
Speaker 1: but there it is. The octagon, man, I guess we're
35:37
Speaker 1: lacking enough angry Bronco fans. I guess that's the issue
