0:10
Speaker 3: eighth day of May twenty twenty five. And here an
0:13
Speaker 3: hour number four, the Football Power Hour, all of that
0:17
Speaker 3: jumbo size, Here an hour number four. Did the Steelers
0:21
Speaker 3: get enough in return for George Pickens?
0:24
Speaker 2: Also?
0:24
Speaker 3: Is George Pickens the missing piece for the Cowboys offense?
0:28
Speaker 3: Or will this volatility around him be a problem? And
0:31
Speaker 3: will George Pickens thrive in Dallas or will his issues.
0:35
Speaker 2: Continue to haunt him in a new location.
0:38
Speaker 3: Also is the RAMS Mini camp in Maui a brilliant
0:43
Speaker 3: way to build team chemistry in paradise or just a
0:48
Speaker 3: flashy PR stunt.
0:50
Speaker 2: We'll talk about that as well.
0:51
Speaker 3: It is the dawn of a new day, and here
0:54
Speaker 3: it is our number four.
0:57
Speaker 2: Have a great Thursday.
1:02
Speaker 4: You're listening to Fox Sports Radio.
1:05
Speaker 2: Going all in? Is that all in? Does that qualify us?
1:11
Speaker 2: All in?
1:12
Speaker 1: Really?
1:13
Speaker 3: Wel gome In the beginning of another hour of the
1:19
Speaker 3: Ben Malor Show. We are in the air ay where razoring.
1:27
Speaker 3: As we sit here and marinate hour after hour, coast
1:32
Speaker 3: to coast, border the border and beyond on the vast
1:37
Speaker 3: and hllatiously powerful microphones of FSR ambinating live from the active,
1:47
Speaker 3: the radioactive universe of talk radio, the Fox Sports Radio studios,
1:53
Speaker 3: approved by Robbie the Mariner fan who has walked in
1:57
Speaker 3: the hallowed hallways of Fox Sports Radio, these same hallowd hallways,
2:02
Speaker 3: the legends back in the day, like Andrew Siciliano and
2:08
Speaker 3: I go, I mean, I'm talking to some other legends
2:10
Speaker 3: that we're doing. There's so many Rich Herrera, I mean,
2:14
Speaker 3: that's a legend.
2:15
Speaker 2: Anyway. This portion of the show made possible by tire
2:18
Speaker 2: i Raq. For over forty years.
2:20
Speaker 3: Ty Iraq has been helping customers find the right tires
2:22
Speaker 3: for how, what and where they drive, ship fast and
2:25
Speaker 3: free back by free road hazard protection with convenient installation
2:28
Speaker 3: options like mobile tire installation, tire rack dot Com. The
2:32
Speaker 3: way the tire buying should be. So our lead this
2:34
Speaker 3: hour is from deep in the heart of Texas. We'll
2:37
Speaker 3: get back to the basketball. The Boston Celtics have fallen
2:41
Speaker 3: and right now they can't get up. They did it again.
2:45
Speaker 3: They did it again. He is going to be a
2:48
Speaker 3: feeding frenzy on Joe Missoula. We'll get to that more
2:50
Speaker 3: later this hour. As the Celtics find themselves in a
2:54
Speaker 3: pretty big hole, and man, this would be one of
2:58
Speaker 3: the great choke jobs in basket ball history. But the
3:00
Speaker 3: Knicks win both games in Boston, so they'll go back
3:02
Speaker 3: to the New York on Saturday. And the other series
3:06
Speaker 3: was blowout City as SGA put the ko from OKC
3:12
Speaker 3: on Denver. But we're gonna talk some football here in
3:17
Speaker 3: the heart of Texas, and that is where the Cowboys
3:20
Speaker 3: have broke up. That broke up and broke out of
3:24
Speaker 3: the doldrums of the offseason.
3:26
Speaker 2: The doll drums have ended. On a random day, a.
3:30
Speaker 3: Random day in May, Jerry Jones pulled the trigger on
3:33
Speaker 3: what we are told is a sizable a trade.
3:37
Speaker 2: A sizable trade.
3:38
Speaker 1: What is that?
3:39
Speaker 2: If you didn't hear, maybe not.
3:42
Speaker 3: The Dallas Cowboys have gone to the flea market, and
3:46
Speaker 3: this one.
3:46
Speaker 2: Involves a lot of fleas.
3:48
Speaker 3: And they have acquired the services of wide receiver George Pickens,
3:54
Speaker 3: a notorious figure in modern NFL football. So George Pickens
3:58
Speaker 3: goes from the Dallas fotball team, which is over here,
4:03
Speaker 3: or from the Pittsburgh football team over to the Dallas
4:05
Speaker 3: football team is over here. So from Pittsburgh to Dallas
4:07
Speaker 3: now Pittsburgh will get a third round pick in twenty
4:10
Speaker 3: twenty six, a fifth round pick in twenty twenty seven,
4:14
Speaker 3: this is a test, and the Cowboys get a sixth
4:17
Speaker 3: round choice like two years from now down the line.
4:20
Speaker 3: So it's essentially George Pickens for a third round pick
4:25
Speaker 3: and the fifth round you don't usually get anything good there.
4:28
Speaker 3: That's where Stiff's like Sugar Sanders get drafted. All right,
4:31
Speaker 3: So let us discuss the question did the Steelers get
4:35
Speaker 3: enough value in return for George Pickens, who was one
4:39
Speaker 3: of their better known players. He was a believe a
4:43
Speaker 3: second round pick. So on this one, I've got Andy
4:45
Speaker 3: Van Slight that's an old baseball player Tuna, and an
4:50
Speaker 3: old actor, Richard Gear And we will combine all of
4:53
Speaker 3: these things together and we are going to make a
4:56
Speaker 3: happy meal with Gabba Gooul with the Gabba Ghul.
5:00
Speaker 2: A happy meal, all right.
5:01
Speaker 3: So to kick off here to answer the question, did
5:03
Speaker 3: the Steelers get enough value in return?
5:07
Speaker 2: It obviously depends on what side of the aisle you're on.
5:09
Speaker 3: I'm gonna go no, But there's a greater reason to
5:12
Speaker 3: make the trade, like in terms of just raw value.
5:16
Speaker 3: The bargaining that takes place the George Pickens divorce.
5:21
Speaker 2: Which is what this is.
5:22
Speaker 3: This has been simmering for several years, and I have
5:27
Speaker 3: taken calls from multiple Steeler fans over these Why are
5:32
Speaker 3: you saying George Pickens is gonna be traded or he's
5:35
Speaker 3: gonna leave this.
5:36
Speaker 2: You don't know what you're talking about. You know the
5:38
Speaker 2: whole rap. You know, you're the overnight guy. You don't know.
5:41
Speaker 3: Football, there's nothing here. We used to have this caller
5:45
Speaker 3: named Andy the Comic Book Guy. I think he retired
5:47
Speaker 3: from calling the show Andy the Comic Book Guy, and
5:50
Speaker 3: he would say the same thing.
5:51
Speaker 2: It was the same conversation, but it was about Stefan Diggs.
5:54
Speaker 3: Like Stefan Diggs and the Bills had a very cantankerous relationship,
5:58
Speaker 3: and he'll have issues in New England because that's what
6:01
Speaker 3: he does. And so I was like, well, he's not
6:02
Speaker 3: gonna last there. And I remember Andy of the Comic
6:04
Speaker 3: Book Guy was, Oh, you don't know what you're talking about.
6:06
Speaker 3: By the same conversations with Pittsburgh fan, right, And I know, listen,
6:11
Speaker 3: we pay attention, you pay attention, you figure out a
6:14
Speaker 3: thing or two. So George Pickens had been at Loggerheads
6:18
Speaker 3: with the coaching staff for a long time, and so
6:20
Speaker 3: finally Mike Tomlin went Popeye the Sailor man. That's all
6:26
Speaker 3: I can stands, and I can't stands no more. And
6:29
Speaker 3: so the assumption was once they got DK Metcalf, that
6:33
Speaker 3: they were gonna have a one to two punch of
6:35
Speaker 3: DK Metcalf and George Pickens.
6:37
Speaker 2: Well, turns out that DK Metcalf has a similar.
6:40
Speaker 3: Skill set as Pickens, and so they got him from
6:45
Speaker 3: Seattle and they paid him, and then that that's it,
6:50
Speaker 3: and George Pickens is risky business. Pickens has the stardust.
6:56
Speaker 3: I'm not gonna sit here and pretend like he doesn't
6:58
Speaker 3: have the star dest He's got the tools to dominate
7:01
Speaker 3: the NFL. The problem, he's also got a big toolbox,
7:04
Speaker 3: if you know what I mean. And however, it.
7:07
Speaker 2: Tells you what level of dingle berry, what level of.
7:12
Speaker 3: Dingle berry George Pickens must be for Mike Tomlin and
7:16
Speaker 3: the Steelers a very buttoned up conservative outfit to hit
7:20
Speaker 3: the eject button.
7:21
Speaker 2: And their argument is we didn't get a lot for him.
7:24
Speaker 3: But this is addition by subtraction in Pittsburgh, and it
7:28
Speaker 3: channels another Pittsburgh legend from years gone by, there was
7:33
Speaker 3: a player for the Pirates named Andy Vanslke and he
7:36
Speaker 3: was teammates. There was this baseball player named Barry Bonds
7:38
Speaker 3: who did a lot of steroids and hit a lot.
7:40
Speaker 2: Of home runs.
7:41
Speaker 3: And Andy vans Like and Barry Bonds hated each other,
7:46
Speaker 3: couldn't stand each other.
7:47
Speaker 2: Everyone that's ever met Barry thinks he's a schmuck. Right,
7:50
Speaker 2: So from I've.
7:51
Speaker 3: Heard so, Andy Vans like one set of Barry Bonds.
7:56
Speaker 3: I would rather lose without him than win with him.
8:00
Speaker 3: And that's the steel. I'd rather lose without George Pickens
8:04
Speaker 3: than win with him. Now, Furthermore, is George Pickens the
8:08
Speaker 3: missing piece, this wide receiver for the Dallas Cowboy eyes?
8:12
Speaker 3: Or will his high level of volatility continue to follow
8:16
Speaker 3: him as we get down to.
8:21
Speaker 2: Training camp, which will be a couple months away in July.
8:24
Speaker 3: They get through the rest of May June, and then
8:26
Speaker 3: mid July training camp begins. So the only way you
8:30
Speaker 3: think this is the missing piece is if you're doing
8:33
Speaker 3: a lot of Colombian bambam. Every man, woman and child
8:37
Speaker 3: knows that Dallas is not one player away. Now, George
8:41
Speaker 3: Pickens is a lottery tick he's a lottery hasn't been scratched,
8:47
Speaker 3: and you don't know what you got. And he hasn't
8:49
Speaker 3: even scratched the surface of his skills. He's never been
8:54
Speaker 3: an All Pro. He's never been even to the Pro Bowl,
8:58
Speaker 3: which is where they play like Hopsky and Connect four
9:02
Speaker 3: and all that.
9:03
Speaker 2: So he hadn't done that.
9:04
Speaker 3: And he is living in the world of if only.
9:10
Speaker 3: That's who George Pickens is. He's an if only player.
9:12
Speaker 3: If only he had focus, if only he locks in,
9:15
Speaker 3: if only he had better work ethic, if only he
9:18
Speaker 3: got along with his coach is better.
9:19
Speaker 2: If only if only he wore nose.
9:22
Speaker 3: Canceling noise canceling headphones, right, if only he didn't pay
9:25
Speaker 3: attention to the outside noise. And as the Tuna Bill
9:30
Speaker 3: Parcells preached, you lose with potential. George Pickens has potential.
9:35
Speaker 3: You lose with potential, you win with production. And Pickens
9:40
Speaker 3: doesn't have consistent production. Now, the argument to counter that is.
9:45
Speaker 4: Not his fault.
9:46
Speaker 2: He's never had a good quarterback. He's had a bunch
9:49
Speaker 2: of J.
9:49
Speaker 3: Broni's in Pittsburgh, and now he's going to have a
9:52
Speaker 3: good quarterback. Well, we can debate how good Dak Prescott
9:55
Speaker 3: is will George Pickens thrive in Dallas or will his
10:00
Speaker 3: issues follow him along? So for him, this is a
10:03
Speaker 3: brass ring opportunity. Like you look at the Cowboys and
10:06
Speaker 3: that offense in Dallas. They have one guy, Ceedee Lamb,
10:11
Speaker 3: and that's it. So now you've got the second option
10:15
Speaker 3: in George Pickens. So in theory, that'll work pretty well.
10:17
Speaker 3: Last year, I believe Jake Ferguson the tight end was
10:21
Speaker 3: the number two option. He was the second leading pass
10:25
Speaker 3: catcher last year. The other thing going for the Cowboys.
10:31
Speaker 3: And it has been speculated in the echo chamber that
10:35
Speaker 3: the Cowboys are not going to sign sign him to
10:38
Speaker 3: an extension George Pickens, which actually makes a lot of sense.
10:42
Speaker 3: Pickens is entering the final year of his rookie deal
10:46
Speaker 3: he signed back in twenty twenty two.
10:48
Speaker 2: So he's got to be a boy scout.
10:50
Speaker 3: He's got to keep his nose clean and play well
10:53
Speaker 3: in order to get the bag.
10:54
Speaker 2: What's in the bag?
10:56
Speaker 3: Money, money, money, that's a lot of money, A lot
10:59
Speaker 3: of money in the bag. Now that said, right, changing laundry.
11:05
Speaker 3: If you think that's the cure, all you are a loser,
11:10
Speaker 3: running away, running away, from your problems. In any facet
11:14
Speaker 3: of life, if you just run away from your problems,
11:16
Speaker 3: that is a race. It is an unwinnable race because
11:20
Speaker 3: your bad habits are going to follow you. You're gonna
11:22
Speaker 3: do the same thing you did in Pittsburgh, George Dickens
11:25
Speaker 3: in Dallas, and it's not gonna be an different.
11:27
Speaker 2: In fact, it'll be.
11:29
Speaker 3: A louder sound coming out of Dallas because of the
11:33
Speaker 3: way the Cowboys get media coverage. It'll be even louder
11:37
Speaker 3: the noise around. George pickings that Steelers get a lot
11:39
Speaker 3: of media coverage. They're a national team. They have fans
11:41
Speaker 3: all over the place because of success they had fifty
11:44
Speaker 3: years ago in Pittsburgh. All right, Now, last thing, we
11:48
Speaker 3: head to the Aloha State and an NFL team has
11:53
Speaker 3: announced they are relocating some of their off season work
11:58
Speaker 3: to Hawaii. Say what that would be the La Rams.
12:04
Speaker 3: You can ram it all day, you can ram it
12:07
Speaker 3: all night, and you can.
12:09
Speaker 2: Ram it in Maui. That's right. The Rams announced that
12:12
Speaker 2: they're going to hold a mandatory mini camp in Maui.
12:16
Speaker 3: It's mandatory from June sixteenth to the nineteenth, not that
12:20
Speaker 3: the dates matter. Two days of on field workouts and
12:24
Speaker 3: then that's it. So is the ram mini camp in
12:28
Speaker 3: Maui a brilliant way to have team bonding everyone hanging
12:35
Speaker 3: out together in paradise in the Hawaiian Islands, or just
12:40
Speaker 3: a flashy pr move by the end. So the arrow
12:45
Speaker 3: on this one not that we spend much time worrying
12:48
Speaker 3: about mandatory mini camp, but the arrow is pointing towards
12:51
Speaker 3: marketing gimmick, Like do you think the guys when they're
12:54
Speaker 3: in Hawaii are going to go surfing together and go
12:56
Speaker 3: cowabunga dude, you know, and do the whole Hawaiian experience,
12:59
Speaker 3: take both rides out to go whale watching. Methinks that's
13:02
Speaker 3: not going to happen.
13:03
Speaker 2: Now.
13:03
Speaker 3: The good thing about Hawaii it's very difficult to get
13:06
Speaker 3: into trouble because everything closes.
13:09
Speaker 2: When the sun goes down in Hawaii.
13:11
Speaker 3: So it's very difficult to get into a lot of trouble.
13:13
Speaker 3: Now they're going to Maui, They're not going to Honolulu.
13:16
Speaker 3: In Honolulu, there's a lot of a lot of bad
13:20
Speaker 3: stuff there in Honolulu, a lot of crackheads and whatever,
13:22
Speaker 3: So you can get in trouble there. But it Maui,
13:25
Speaker 3: you know, from what I've heard not so much. Now,
13:28
Speaker 3: if you really want to have a laid back trip
13:31
Speaker 3: to Hawaii, you go to Kawaii is where you go.
13:33
Speaker 3: You go there and man, nothing going on and it's
13:37
Speaker 3: just nothing but beaches and that's it and there's nothing
13:40
Speaker 3: else going on.
13:40
Speaker 2: But this is obviously a marketing gimmick. And it's like the.
13:44
Speaker 3: Richard Gears song from the movie Chicago, Razzle Dazzle, Right,
13:48
Speaker 3: this is all about the razzle dazzle. Give me the
13:49
Speaker 3: old razzle dazzle and put a lot of flash in
13:52
Speaker 3: there and all that stuff.
13:53
Speaker 2: The rams love these photo ops.
13:56
Speaker 3: They've tried to embrace the whole Hollywood thing and all that.
14:00
Speaker 2: They love the viral viral moment.
14:03
Speaker 3: Like, I'm convinced this is just for viral social media posts.
14:07
Speaker 2: They're not worried about team bonding or any of that stuff.
14:11
Speaker 3: And it just goes against the essence of foot what
14:14
Speaker 3: football was supposed to be, where it's drudgery and it's
14:19
Speaker 3: not you're not supposed to be hanging out on the
14:22
Speaker 3: beach in Hawaii and you're not taking it seriously. And
14:26
Speaker 3: then but then part of me is like, well, who
14:27
Speaker 3: cares about a mandatory mini camp in June. Nobody cares
14:30
Speaker 3: about that, But you think about the Rams have done.
14:33
Speaker 3: They had the NFL Draft held eight I think they
14:37
Speaker 3: were at a beach house one year, they were at
14:39
Speaker 3: a fire station this year, and now they're going to
14:42
Speaker 3: the Aloha State. But I'm pretty confident that you don't
14:46
Speaker 3: go to Hawaii with the purpose of improving your football skills.
14:51
Speaker 3: You go to Hawaii to hang out in a hammock,
14:55
Speaker 3: drink a cocktail, look at the ocean, and just kind
14:59
Speaker 3: of go with the flow. And you're at a leisurely
15:03
Speaker 3: paced they call.
15:04
Speaker 2: It island time.
15:06
Speaker 3: You're on island time, light workouts, tropical setting.
15:11
Speaker 2: And you gotta think the players are gonna treat this
15:13
Speaker 2: like a vacation, right.
15:15
Speaker 3: What they ought to do if they really want people
15:17
Speaker 3: to show up is have a non mandatory mini camp,
15:21
Speaker 3: like a non mandatory workout in Hawaii. The entire effing
15:25
Speaker 3: team will show up, right. A free trip to Hawaii.
15:28
Speaker 3: I'm in mandatory. They got to be there anyway. You
15:31
Speaker 3: make it non mandatory. And they said, we'll go.
15:33
Speaker 2: We'll take it Hawaii.

Speaker 3: And that will that would be coming up at some
20:07
Speaker 3: point at a two be determined date, hopefully this year.
20:10
Speaker 6: You keep saying that, Ben, this Houston Rockets series is
20:15
Speaker 6: what I wanted to make a point about. So Steph Curry, Draymond.
20:19
Speaker 7: Green and the Warriors of Old basically destroyed these great
20:24
Speaker 7: Houston Rockets teams to a point where they were forced
20:27
Speaker 7: to rebuild for what felt like a decade, and then
20:30
Speaker 7: the same players came back and beat him again.
20:35
Speaker 5: Okay, okay, this Timberwolve series, is.
20:40
Speaker 2: That a statement or a question?
20:41
Speaker 1: Was that?
20:42
Speaker 2: I feel like that was a statement that was not
20:43
Speaker 2: a question that was a statement.
20:46
Speaker 6: No, it's it's more of an a few to Houston
20:48
Speaker 6: and the wrestlers that played for their basketball team. So
20:53
Speaker 6: this Minnesota series, Steph is obviously out and we can
20:57
Speaker 6: figure out a way to probably win this series air
21:00
Speaker 6: hold down the fort until.
21:01
Speaker 5: Step gets back.
21:02
Speaker 6: But the big emerging story that you should be talking
21:05
Speaker 6: about on the show is the emergence of lacrosse great
21:08
Speaker 6: Pat Spencer.
21:10
Speaker 3: You know, you know, I was you must be reading
21:13
Speaker 3: my mind. I was actually going to bring this up.
21:14
Speaker 3: I jotted that I didn't mention this the other day.
21:17
Speaker 3: But Pat Spencer, I think he is actually a time
21:23
Speaker 3: traveler from the nineteen eighties. He looks like a nineteen
21:27
Speaker 3: eighties NBA player to me. He and it's like the
21:30
Speaker 3: mugdaff no, but but it looks like the kind of
21:33
Speaker 3: guy that you would see in the NBA, like in
21:34
Speaker 3: the late eighties, where he just kind of doesn't look
21:37
Speaker 3: like he belongs, like who doesn't belong there?
21:41
Speaker 2: And that's yeah, that's that.
21:43
Speaker 3: He looks like he should be playing for the Pistons
21:46
Speaker 3: in like nineteen eighty nine or something like that.
21:48
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, but he's you know, so it's a statement
21:51
Speaker 5: for the Warriors future.
21:52
Speaker 1: Right.
21:52
Speaker 6: You know, while steps three might be gone for a
21:54
Speaker 6: playoff series, the franchise moving forward as a predictable transpire
21:59
Speaker 6: is in good hands with Pat Spencer handling the ball.
22:02
Speaker 3: Yes, I go, they will be back. They will be back,
22:07
Speaker 3: Pat Spencer. Back to the Donald Foyle days.
22:10
Speaker 5: With Mike Clippers and Coops Lakers.
22:13
Speaker 6: The playoffs are worse for the wear with phot those
22:16
Speaker 6: teams not being in all.
22:19
Speaker 2: Right, thank you.
22:19
Speaker 3: There's Alameta Lou checking in and checking out, saying bye bye. Yeah,
22:25
Speaker 3: Pat Spencer. If you've not seen him through one of
22:28
Speaker 3: our blind listeners, Pat Spencer has a He just looks
22:34
Speaker 3: like he doesn't belong out there, like he won some
22:36
Speaker 3: kind of raffle to play for the Warriors.
22:39
Speaker 2: It's like, hey, what are you doing?
22:41
Speaker 3: Like the kind of guy that you would see at
22:42
Speaker 3: the y m c A on a Saturday morning playing basketball.
22:45
Speaker 2: And he's in the NBA and you're like, what is that? Like,
22:48
Speaker 2: I don't understand.
22:49
Speaker 3: Let's say speak about I don't understand Blind Scott, who
22:53
Speaker 3: guaranteed the Celtics we're going to win this Those things
22:57
Speaker 3: are not looking so good, Blind Scott.
22:59
Speaker 2: Marcel's laughing at you.
23:01
Speaker 8: Yeah, I found the term called blind supremacy. It explains
23:04
Speaker 8: my college pretty good.
23:05
Speaker 1: Dude.
23:05
Speaker 5: The description you just gave for the.
23:07
Speaker 8: Blind was, like, that was pretty funny, man, because a
23:10
Speaker 8: lot of blind people don't get out and look really
23:12
Speaker 8: weird too, So like it be hard for You're explaining
23:15
Speaker 8: this to blind people and they're trying to imagine something
23:17
Speaker 8: that they might relate to. Dude, but this is the
23:19
Speaker 8: Blind Scott and Mike the Leprechaun segment. I think if
23:22
Speaker 8: he's on hold, we should pot him up for a
23:24
Speaker 8: second and we should have a little discussion of a
23:26
Speaker 8: Celtic round table. Here is he here?
23:28
Speaker 2: All right?
23:29
Speaker 3: Well let's see here. We can hit the button nearly
23:31
Speaker 3: put Mike the Leprechaun on. Mike the Leprechaun. Blind Scott
23:34
Speaker 3: would like to talk to you, Mike the Leprechaun.
23:38
Speaker 7: I will, thank god, I either thing.

Speaker 1: I can bring your care.
23:42
Speaker 3: Whisker in my This is that's a private conversation. This
23:46
Speaker 3: is not for all you're both on the air. Nobody
23:48
Speaker 3: wants to hear that.
23:49
Speaker 8: The celic.
23:53
Speaker 2: Hold on.
23:53
Speaker 3: I'm turning off the Leprechaun Lee might have accidentally hung
23:56
Speaker 3: up on Blind Scott.
23:59
Speaker 2: Wow, is that possible?
24:00
Speaker 9: You just.
24:03
Speaker 2: Okay, so now we're stuck.
24:05
Speaker 4: With the maybe a little on the lazy side.
24:08
Speaker 8: He does know how to work the phones.
24:11
Speaker 2: Maybe you don't work phones on my show. It's been
24:13
Speaker 2: a while.
24:14
Speaker 3: Yeah, very few shows actually take calls anymore, at least
24:18
Speaker 3: at our place.
24:18
Speaker 2: I know other.
24:19
Speaker 3: Places they do, but we don't. We're one of the
24:21
Speaker 3: few shows that do take the calls. Yeah, so wet

24:30
Speaker 2: Here's what you do.
24:31
Speaker 3: The lock in line, whatever line Scott's on, and then we'll.
24:34
Speaker 2: See I love you. I locked him on the opposite side.
24:36
Speaker 2: And then Lorraina used to do that. No.
24:38
Speaker 3: Yeah, and the limit is two falls on the air
24:41
Speaker 3: at the same time. Any more than two the whole
24:43
Speaker 3: thing goes to hell, it burns up.
24:44
Speaker 8: It'll no Marcell, thank god, no Marcell.
24:48
Speaker 2: Okay, people wait, wait, wait, wait wait, Peo. People hate you.

24:53
Speaker 8: Knicks fan now because of you, Mike, the Celtics fans stinks.
24:57
Speaker 8: This is an example of them. They call themselves Mike
24:59
Speaker 8: the Leprechaun. I'm so sick of the Celtics. I hope
25:02
Speaker 8: they don't come back to Boston. The fans stand in
25:04
Speaker 8: the middle of the sidewalks. They don't even know what's
25:06
Speaker 8: going on at the games. Nobody knows the players. People
25:09
Speaker 8: buy all the jerseys. We got this guy pretending to
25:12
Speaker 8: be Mike the Leprechaun. I mean, how corny is that.
25:16
Speaker 8: That's a Celtics fan. You don't see like a New
25:19
Speaker 8: York Knicks guy being like I'm Donnie the Knickerbocker and
25:22
Speaker 8: doing all these corny bits. I can't subscribe to this anymore.
25:25
Speaker 8: I can't be a Celtics fan. I can't call into sports, right.
25:29
Speaker 3: Okay, all right, all right, so hold on, Mike the Leprechaun.
25:31
Speaker 3: Blind Scott is upset with the Celtics. He's leaving his
25:35
Speaker 3: fandom because of you.
25:36
Speaker 2: Your thoughts.
25:37
Speaker 1: Well, that's his choice.
25:39
Speaker 3: That's his choice, the seven games.
25:42
Speaker 1: That's the seven true.
25:43
Speaker 8: Here's the thing, though, leconn that've ruined the Celtics and
25:46
Speaker 8: you made fun of Marcel and you're a fifth grade teacher, dude,
25:50

28:49
Speaker 3: fan for back. This is our year, this is good.

29:11
Speaker 2: What about? What about?
29:11
Speaker 6: What about?
29:12
Speaker 2: What about? What about? What about? What about ism?
29:14

29:24
Speaker 2: Okay, thank you, all right, I'll call. I'll talk to
29:26
Speaker 2: you in six months next time you call. The show
29:28
Speaker 2: can't wait. So one of Bill Belichick's toadies in the
29:34
Speaker 2: media is changing his tune a little bit.
29:37
Speaker 3: Julian Edelman, who had been a big advocate of Bill
29:41
Speaker 3: Belichick and his sugar baby there.
29:44
Speaker 2: That story's died down a little bit. But you might
29:47
Speaker 2: remember the Edelman and Gronkowski.
29:49
Speaker 3: I guess they do some podcasts, because everyone's got a podcast.
29:52
Speaker 2: I'm sure that's great unless it's not. But they were
29:55
Speaker 2: defending the now notorious.
29:59
Speaker 3: Interview that was on that CBS morning news show where
30:06
Speaker 3: she stepped in there.
30:07
Speaker 2: God forbid.
30:07
Speaker 3: They talk about their relationship, where they met and all
30:09
Speaker 3: that stuff, and so it's been a disaster now. Edelman,
30:12
Speaker 3: after originally running interference for Bill Belichick, he called it
30:17
Speaker 3: a distraction when he appeared here on Fox Sports Radio
30:22
Speaker 3: with our teammate Colin Cowherd. Is now a distraction. Now
30:28
Speaker 3: what is his real position? So he was supporting Belichick,
30:32
Speaker 3: but now it's a distraction. So which one is it?
30:36
Speaker 3: I would like to know. I would like to know
30:38
Speaker 3: which one is it? I don't know, all right, anyway,
30:42
Speaker 3: It is the Ben Mahlor Show, the fun fact of
30:46
Speaker 3: the hour, the fun fact of the hour.
30:49
Speaker 2: Here are you ready for it?
30:51
Speaker 4: Mallor fun fact?
30:53
Speaker 3: The player voted by his peers the most overrated player
30:57
Speaker 3: in the NBA, Tyrese Halliburton of the Niana Pacers is
31:00
Speaker 3: shooting ninety one percent in late game, tie or lead situations.
31:08
Speaker 2: The player deemed the most.
31:10
Speaker 3: Overrated the most overrated player, Tyreese Aaliburton is shooting ninety
31:17
Speaker 3: one percent in late game situations.
31:22
Speaker 2: Tie or lead and.
31:26
Speaker 3: Been a dominating force for the Indiana Pacers as the
31:29
Speaker 3: playoffs go on and on and on. No Pacer game
31:33
Speaker 3: though tonight, No Bucks Bucks, No, no Pacers calves. Tonight
31:39
Speaker 3: the only NBA game of Warriors and Timberwolves. Where is
31:42
Speaker 3: the money, money, money money? But we got another split.
31:45
Speaker 3: We have another split, the Timberwolves and the Golden State Warriors.
31:50
Speaker 3: Now that game opened up Minnesota a ten point favorite,
31:54
Speaker 3: they are up to a ten and a half point favorite.
31:56
Speaker 3: The sharp Better is on the team from Minnesota, so
32:03
Speaker 3: not an overwhelming amount, not an overwhelming amount, but they
32:08
Speaker 3: have more of the bets from the sharp Better. So
32:12
Speaker 3: the public, though, is on the other side. They're taking
32:15
Speaker 3: the points here, and they are taking the Golden State
32:19
Speaker 3: Warriors plus all those points, so.
32:21
Speaker 2: Slight slight lean, slight lean to the Warriors.
32:26
Speaker 3: So the public's on the side of Golden State plus
32:27
Speaker 3: the points, the Timberwolves getting the sharp money on that.
32:31
Speaker 3: And then tomorrow there's a couple of games. I don't
32:35
Speaker 3: have the numbers on the Thunder and the Nuggets. The
32:38
Speaker 3: line on that's five in favor of Oklahoma. Say they're
32:41
Speaker 3: five point favorite in Denver, which seems like that's gonna
32:46
Speaker 3: get some attention to the betters and the Pacers and
32:48
Speaker 3: Calves that open to pick them. Indiana is the game
32:52
Speaker 3: again being played tomorrow on.
32:55
Speaker 2: On Friday, and Cleveland is a two and a half point.
32:58
Speaker 3: Road favorite now and they are getting the vast majority
33:01
Speaker 3: of the cash money.
33:03
Speaker 2: The Celtics and the Knicks.
33:04
Speaker 3: They don't play till Saturday afternoon at three point thirty
33:08
Speaker 3: at the Garden, and that line is Boston by five.
33:13
Speaker 2: They are a five point favorite.
33:14
Speaker 3: Don't have the numbers as far as too early yet
33:17
Speaker 3: to get the numbers on the bets. It is the
33:19
Speaker 3: Ben Maler Show. I need some judges. We are moments away.
33:23
Speaker 3: I need some celebrities, judges, fact or fiction? Fact or fiction?
33:30
Speaker 2: Is it factor? Is it Fiction?
33:31
Speaker 3: Eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox eight seven seven
33:35
Speaker 3: nine nine six six three sixty nine.
33:37
