Latest / The Ben Maller Show / Hour 1 - Losing Command
Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Touchdown, it's our number one and oh what fun here
- 0:05Speaker 1: in hour one. Now, we were planning on The Ben
- 0:07Speaker 1: Malor Show to begin the festivities by yapping about the
- 0:13Speaker 1: World Series, but we were doing the show live. The
- 0:15Speaker 1: World Series was still going on during hour number one,
- 0:19Speaker 1: so we pivoted and we talked about the NFL Monday
- 0:21Speaker 1: Night football game. Week eight wrapped up with Washington and
- 0:24Speaker 1: Kansas City and a rather futred performance by the Commanders
- 0:29Speaker 1: in the second half of that game. They're playing backups
- 0:32Speaker 1: and they just didn't have much fight in the second half,
- 0:35Speaker 1: and people calling out the head coach there as they
- 0:37Speaker 1: looked terrible. So does Dan Quinn deserve the heat he's
- 0:42Speaker 1: getting for the Commander's performance or lack thereof in the
- 0:45Speaker 1: second half. Also thumbs up or thumbs down on Andy
- 0:48Speaker 1: Reid's Kansas City Chiefs. They're back in the catbird's seat
- 0:53Speaker 1: of the AFC. Now, technically they're barely in the playoffs. However,
- 0:56Speaker 1: the way they're playing right now, Kansas City is looking really,
- 1:01Speaker 1: really good and coach Brian Schottenheimer and Dallas promising change
- 1:06Speaker 1: after the blowout loss to the Broncos, saying that it
- 1:10Speaker 1: is not acceptable. So what changes can Shoddy make for
- 1:14Speaker 1: the Whoa Begone Dallas Cowboys. We'll talk about all that
- 1:17Speaker 1: and more. Right now, give it up to my little friend.
- 1:20Speaker 1: It's our number one. Well you remember when the Washington
- 1:36Speaker 1: Commanders were in the NFC Championship game. On the back,
- 1:39Speaker 1: those are the Dan Snyder Commanders. Welcome in the beginning
- 1:45Speaker 1: of another night of the Ben Mahler Show. We are
- 1:49Speaker 1: in the air everywhere as we cluster and hang out
- 1:57Speaker 1: in the corner store. We have more. So we have
- 2:00Speaker 1: more coast to coast, border to border and beyond on
- 2:03Speaker 1: the vast and prodigiously powerful microphones of fsr ammnating live
- 2:11Speaker 1: from the box as we get on our soapbox from
- 2:16Speaker 1: the world famous Fox Sports Radio Studios, as approved by Rick.
- 2:20Speaker 2: In Maryland morning time.
- 2:23Speaker 1: As we are together yet again here hanging out from
- 2:26Speaker 1: the Fox Sports Radio Studios. This portion of the Ben
- 2:30Speaker 1: mal Show made possible in part by our friends at
- 2:32Speaker 1: tire Rack. That's right, tire Rack. For over forty years,
- 2:36Speaker 1: tire Rack has been helping customers find the right tires
- 2:38Speaker 1: for how, what and where they drive. Ship fast and
- 2:41Speaker 1: free back by free road hazard protection with convenient installation
- 2:46Speaker 1: options like mobile tire installation tire rac dot com the
- 2:50Speaker 1: way tire buying should be. So we were giving a
- 2:52Speaker 1: curveball the plan. The show was put to bed and
- 2:55Speaker 1: we had the baby woke up. The baby was put
- 2:57Speaker 1: to bed, the baby woke up. So the Dodgers are
- 2:59Speaker 1: still We have live baseball, which is great because all
- 3:02Speaker 1: these people are bitching and could playing.
- 3:05Speaker 3: I don't understand these games are going so long. I
- 3:07Speaker 3: don't get my God shut up. Welcome to my world,
- 3:11Speaker 3: you losers, Welcome to my world. So the Dodgers and
- 3:15Speaker 3: Blue Jays are tied at five. They've gone now that
- 3:18Speaker 3: I know, is that cheating.
- 3:19Speaker 1: They pulled out the the sliced watermelon and pineapple.
- 3:23Speaker 2: It looked like to me pineapple.
- 3:24Speaker 1: Theyre the Dodgers eating snacks in the dugout and they
- 3:28Speaker 1: are now going to the bottom of the sixteenth inning
- 3:31Speaker 1: at Travesarino, I want this game to end either in
- 3:34Speaker 1: the bottom of the sixteenth or the seventeenth, because I
- 3:36Speaker 1: was at the game that win eighteen innings, so I
- 3:38Speaker 1: don't want to see this game, this World Series game,
- 3:41Speaker 1: go more than eighteen because that would then cheapen the
- 3:45Speaker 1: game that I was at Red Sox and Doyers in
- 3:48Speaker 1: the World Series years ago, when Max Muntsey hit the
- 3:50Speaker 1: home run. The game ended one in the morning, right
- 3:53Speaker 1: around one in the morning. It was after midnight.
- 3:55Speaker 2: I remember that. It was after midnight. So anyway, that
- 3:57Speaker 2: is what's going on right now.
- 3:58Speaker 1: So we will we will, I'll watch that, but we
- 4:01Speaker 1: will be talking about something other than that right now,
- 4:03Speaker 1: because there is more to discuss and more to break down,
- 4:07Speaker 1: and so our lead story this hour from Arrowhead Stadium
- 4:12Speaker 1: in Cannes City. It was KC and the Sunshine Band,
- 4:17Speaker 1: and that is the lead the stage for the final
- 4:19Speaker 1: game of.
- 4:20Speaker 2: Week number eight.
- 4:22Speaker 1: Week number eight of the NFL eight one of the
- 4:26Speaker 1: absolute worst. By the way, the product could not have
- 4:30Speaker 1: been less enjoyable if you want competitive games. In fact,
- 4:33Speaker 1: going back to nineteen seventy, this was, if not the
- 4:39Speaker 1: largest marching it was in the top two or three
- 4:42Speaker 1: all time in the history of the NFL. I know
- 4:44Speaker 1: going into the Monday night game. It was in the discussion.
- 4:48Speaker 1: It depends on how you spin the stats. How Badnes was,
- 4:51Speaker 1: but a weekend of blowouts wrapped up with backup quarterback
- 4:56Speaker 1: as Marcus Mariota leading the hobbled comm into Kansas City
- 5:01Speaker 1: that played eight there with Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs.
- 5:04Speaker 1: You had Joe Buck and Troy Aikman on the call.
- 5:07Speaker 1: There were you watching?
- 5:09Speaker 2: Did you watch? Were you engaged in this? And you
- 5:11Speaker 2: were not? Okay?
- 5:13Speaker 1: So Patrick Mahomes, by his standards, struggled early in the game.
- 5:17Speaker 1: The first half was a bit of a dud all
- 5:20Speaker 1: the way around, a lot of turnovers, a lot of bad,
- 5:23Speaker 1: sloppy football. And then by the time the game had ended,
- 5:26Speaker 1: Mahomes we love round numbers. He was one yard away
- 5:29Speaker 1: from a nice, sexy three hundred yards passing at two
- 5:32Speaker 1: hundred and ninety nine yards, ended up with three touchdowns.
- 5:35Speaker 1: Kareem Hunt found Peydrt hit the end zone twice, and
- 5:39Speaker 1: the Chiefs defense in the second half it looked like
- 5:43Speaker 1: they wanted to get out of there. They being Washington
- 5:46Speaker 1: as Kansas City hog tied the Commanders in the final
- 5:50Speaker 1: thirty minutes of that football game. So Kansas City pulls
- 5:52Speaker 1: away and they win by three touchdowns twenty eight to seven.
- 5:58Speaker 1: I am told that's good playing the NFL. But I'm
- 6:01Speaker 1: told that's good on a nice cold October night, just
- 6:05Speaker 1: days away from Halloween. Now, the better story is in
- 6:10Speaker 1: the losing locker room. The better story is in the
- 6:12Speaker 1: losing locker room and the Commander fans very upset, very
- 6:18Speaker 1: upset with dan Quinn, a lot of range, a lot
- 6:22Speaker 1: of anger with the way the Commanders played in the
- 6:24Speaker 1: second half of that game, and a lot of the
- 6:28Speaker 1: conversation is not even so much about how bad the
- 6:31Speaker 1: Commanders looked in the second half. It's the apathetic appearance
- 6:36Speaker 1: of the players on the Washington football team, who were
- 6:40Speaker 1: so happy after they got their face smashed in by
- 6:44Speaker 1: the Chiefs and people up in arms over that, that
- 6:47Speaker 1: they were smiling and having a grand old time playing
- 6:50Speaker 1: grab ass at the end of the game there on
- 6:52Speaker 1: the sidelines. The postgame handshake was like a college party.
- 6:57Speaker 1: My god, were they having a good time? People have
- 6:59Speaker 1: said with that, and so that's a good jumping off point.
- 7:02Speaker 1: Let us discuss the question does dan Quinn deserve the
- 7:07Speaker 1: heat that he's getting in the cyber Warfare department for
- 7:12Speaker 1: the Commander's performance?
- 7:14Speaker 2: Does he deserve some heat for that?
- 7:16Speaker 1: Now my observations on this, I've got Brad pitt Child's
- 7:20Speaker 1: play and Circus Circus, and we will combine all of
- 7:25Speaker 1: these things together and we are going to get an
- 7:28Speaker 1: end to Game three of the World Series. That's going
- 7:31Speaker 1: to have We're gonna end Game three of the World Series.
- 7:32Speaker 1: But number one, to answer the question, does dan Quinn
- 7:43Speaker 1: deserve the crap that he's getting. I'm nodding my head, yes,
- 7:47Speaker 1: I'm nodding my head yes. On that now, dan Quinn's commanders.
- 7:50Speaker 1: I'm old enough to remember that they were in the
- 7:53Speaker 1: final four of the National Football League at the end
- 7:56Speaker 1: of last season, and here they are out there smiling.
- 8:00Speaker 1: They were to charity golf outing somewhere in Maryland, just
- 8:03Speaker 1: having a grand old time. They were out playing golf
- 8:06Speaker 1: with some politicians and.
- 8:08Speaker 2: Just let me have some lemonade? Is that spiked lemonade?
- 8:12Speaker 1: They didn't act like they just got pants in the
- 8:14Speaker 1: second half by Kansas City, which is what happened on
- 8:17Speaker 1: National TV, by the way, in an Island game, although
- 8:19Speaker 1: not a full Island game, because I was flipping back
- 8:22Speaker 1: and my right hand was getting a workout. If I
- 8:24Speaker 1: had only known the Dodgers and Bluejays would play all night,
- 8:27Speaker 1: I wouldn't even bother to watch the first part of
- 8:29Speaker 1: the game. I just would have focused on the football game.
- 8:32Speaker 1: But I was going back and forth and all that,
- 8:34Speaker 1: so the Commanders end up on the wrong side, and
- 8:37Speaker 1: then all the shenanigans after the game there as Washington
- 8:42Speaker 1: did catch lightning in a bottle, and I caught lightning
- 8:45Speaker 1: in a bottle last year. That was supposed to be
- 8:47Speaker 1: the foundation. That's what I was told. The smart people said,
- 8:51Speaker 1: this is the foundation.
- 8:53Speaker 2: This is it.
- 8:53Speaker 1: The NFL's final four NFC Championship game in Philadelphia, win
- 8:58Speaker 1: away from getting the super Bowl, and right there.
- 9:01Speaker 2: One win.
- 9:02Speaker 1: Now, let's see some inventory on where the Commanders are.
- 9:05Speaker 1: We're at a checkpoint week eight. Now I realized they
- 9:08Speaker 1: play seventeen games, so it's not quite the halfway point,
- 9:11Speaker 1: but nonetheless, for talk radio purposes, we will examine this
- 9:15Speaker 1: as the middling point of the NFL season. So where
- 9:19Speaker 1: is Washington one year after they were right on the
- 9:24Speaker 1: cusp of the top of the NFL. So they have
- 9:27Speaker 1: been come tumbling down, down, down, down.
- 9:29Speaker 2: Down, down, down, down, down, down down down.
- 9:31Speaker 1: That's where they are right now. And so they have
- 9:33Speaker 1: gone from punching above their weight, which is what they
- 9:37Speaker 1: did last year. Now they have gone down to the
- 9:40Speaker 1: corner bakery and they've ordered a pie, not an apple,
- 9:44Speaker 1: not a pumpkin, not the banana cream pie. They've gone
- 9:47Speaker 1: to the corner bakery and the Commanders have ordered a
- 9:50Speaker 1: big humble pie and they're cutting up the humble pie
- 9:53Speaker 1: right now. Although they don't seem to be that worried
- 9:55Speaker 1: based on their postgame celebration. You want to give at
- 9:58Speaker 1: least the di exception that you actually care so. Defensively,
- 10:03Speaker 1: the Commanders currently are ranked twenty seventh in the NFL.
- 10:06Speaker 2: I'm told that's not good the offense. How about the offense?
- 10:09Speaker 1: Now? The Commander's offense here? Okay, this group, I know
- 10:14Speaker 1: Jadon Daniels has been hurt. Middle of the pack. There's
- 10:16Speaker 1: sixteenth in the NFL. Now I recall and maybe I'm
- 10:19Speaker 1: wrong on this. You can touch up my work if
- 10:21Speaker 1: you want. Cliff Kingsbury was the second coming of the
- 10:26Speaker 1: Messiah as the offensive genius for the Washington Commanders.
- 10:31Speaker 2: It is amazing. How'd that go?
- 10:35Speaker 4: Well?
- 10:35Speaker 1: Don't ask this year. Now, here's the thing about the
- 10:38Speaker 1: Commanders watching this team plan. I saw him in person
- 10:42Speaker 1: a few weeks back against the Chargers and they actually
- 10:46Speaker 1: played well in that game. But the thing I look
- 10:48Speaker 1: at Washington is they're not bad enough the Commanders to
- 10:52Speaker 1: be a lovable train wreck. So they're not at that
- 10:56Speaker 1: point and they're not good enough to really matter, kind
- 11:00Speaker 1: of stuck in the Bermuda triangle of the NFL. They're
- 11:04Speaker 1: stuck in football purgatory at this point. And as far
- 11:08Speaker 1: as the I guess we'll call it, what is the heel?
- 11:11Speaker 1: A monster of the room here? Postgame? It was like
- 11:13Speaker 1: a country club. But is it always like I don't
- 11:16Speaker 1: like understand the rage. It's always like that at NFL games.
- 11:19Speaker 1: They love other NFL players and they cannot wait to
- 11:23Speaker 1: hug it out. It's warm and fuzzy at the end
- 11:25Speaker 1: of every NFL game, with few exceptions.
- 11:29Speaker 2: With few exceptions. Now there are exceptions, but.
- 11:31Speaker 1: You you'd think that the Washington football team was hosting
- 11:36Speaker 1: a nice brunch with sliced meats and sliced cheeses and
- 11:42Speaker 1: they hadn't just gotten their teeth kicked in in the
- 11:45Speaker 1: second half by the team from Kansas City. But if
- 11:49Speaker 1: you're dan Quinn, okay, if you're Dan Quinn, to me,
- 11:52Speaker 1: that's on you. You know, he's supposed to be a happy,
- 11:54Speaker 1: go lucky coach and all that. That's fine, but at
- 11:57Speaker 1: least give the illusion that you were slightly bob and
- 12:00Speaker 1: this is always the issue. Right, We who invest our
- 12:03Speaker 1: time as fans, we get emotionally attached. The players don't
- 12:09Speaker 1: get emotionally attached. It's their gig, it's their job. They
- 12:12Speaker 1: don't understand why you're so into it. Just chill out, man,
- 12:15Speaker 1: It's just a game. And so we want to go
- 12:17Speaker 1: on there and make out at the fifty yard line
- 12:20Speaker 1: after we just got are ass kicked. We're going to
- 12:23Speaker 1: do that. We are going to do that is what
- 12:25Speaker 1: we're going to do. Yes, So how bad was it
- 12:29Speaker 1: for the Washington commanders? Was so bad that dan Quinn
- 12:34Speaker 1: should hire Brad Pitt. Bring Brad Pitty in. Remember that
- 12:37Speaker 1: famous scene from Moneyball where he was portraying Billy Bean
- 12:41Speaker 1: and they were in the locker room and he said, hey,
- 12:44Speaker 1: you think losing is fun?
- 12:47Speaker 2: You think losing is fun?
- 12:48Speaker 1: And then the player on the athletics said, well no, okay,
- 12:52Speaker 1: Well if the answer is no, it's not fun, then
- 12:56Speaker 1: what the hell are you smiling for. By the way,
- 13:00Speaker 1: they played thirty minutes of football, they were tied at halftime.
- 13:03Speaker 1: The Washington football team, I believe at that point they
- 13:06Speaker 1: started warming up the diesel engines on the buses and
- 13:09Speaker 1: they wanted to make sure that the water in the
- 13:10Speaker 1: shower was warm as well. They had just sixty six
- 13:14Speaker 1: yards of offense in the second half, and if my
- 13:16Speaker 1: math is correct, I jotted this chicken scratch down four
- 13:19Speaker 1: first downs in the second half, which I'm told is
- 13:22Speaker 1: not good. They were big underdogs, double digit dogs. They
- 13:27Speaker 1: being Washington going into this game, they were expected to lose,
- 13:31Speaker 1: they were expected to be blown out. They actually had
- 13:34Speaker 1: the game in position at halftime to scratch and claw
- 13:39Speaker 1: and make it a fourth quarter game, to put the
- 13:41Speaker 1: pressure on Kansas City. And instead of doing that, well,
- 13:47Speaker 1: they did the opposite. They just got in the fetal position,
- 13:49Speaker 1: started sucking their thumb and that was it. Mahomes got going,
- 13:54Speaker 1: the defense started crushing people, and that was it. Game over.
- 13:59Speaker 1: Apps salute weak sauce, Absolute week sauce. Now on the
- 14:03Speaker 1: other side, page two. So we go now to the
- 14:07Speaker 1: Kansas City side of things, where things are buzzing. You
- 14:13Speaker 1: can almost hear it. There's a buzz in the air.
- 14:18Speaker 1: It's almost everywhere. Yes, So question, are you gonna go
- 14:24Speaker 1: thumbs up or are you gonna go thumbs down? Thumbs upper,
- 14:27Speaker 1: thumbs down on Andy Reid's Chiefs being back in the
- 14:31Speaker 1: catbird seat metaphorically in the AFC.
- 14:36Speaker 2: All right, that is the question. So thumb to the moon,
- 14:41Speaker 2: way up.
- 14:42Speaker 1: I'm going to the moon. Thumb way up to the moon.
- 14:44Speaker 1: Now this game, you don't get any style points. It
- 14:47Speaker 1: was a blowout win. It was close at halftime. This
- 14:49Speaker 1: was what I would call a workman like effort for
- 14:52Speaker 1: the Kansas City Chiefs. Here punch the clock. The old
- 14:55Speaker 1: I can't really say lunch pill because all these guys
- 14:57Speaker 1: are millionaires, but you get the point. Back in the
- 14:59Speaker 1: old days we'd say lunch type game. And all of
- 15:01Speaker 1: a sudden, all of a sudden, Patrick Mahomes looks like
- 15:07Speaker 1: the vintage Patrick Mahomes.
- 15:09Speaker 2: Yet again he does.
- 15:11Speaker 1: He's got his toys back at wide receiver, He's got
- 15:13Speaker 1: his playmakers back. I know Keg drinking. Steve's excited about that.
- 15:17Speaker 1: And so Mahomes is cooking with a flamethrower at this point.
- 15:20Speaker 1: So it turns out the reports of Mahomes and the
- 15:24Speaker 1: Chiefs demise, well, they were cute while they lasted greatly exaggerated.
- 15:30Speaker 1: Mahomes looked in the second half like he was taking
- 15:34Speaker 1: batting practice at five thirty and hitting those batting practice
- 15:38Speaker 1: fastballs out of the park. Washington had nothing in the
- 15:42Speaker 1: second half. Now, some of that was Mahomes. Some of
- 15:46Speaker 1: that was Mahomes and what he was doing with Kansas City.
- 15:49Speaker 1: They got off to the zero to two start. They
- 15:51Speaker 1: are now five and one, and the one loss in
- 15:54Speaker 1: there was the play that they quit against Jacksonville. Remember
- 15:57Speaker 1: the defense quit. They were caught on camera lollygagging, allowing
- 16:02Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence to fall down twice and get up and
- 16:05Speaker 1: score a touchdown. So that's on them. So you could
- 16:07Speaker 1: make the argument there's a dimension in the multiverse where
- 16:10Speaker 1: they are six and zero and they're lurking in the
- 16:13Speaker 1: playoff picture like Michael Myers behind the curtain there. Now
- 16:18Speaker 1: nobody think about this, Nobody in the AFC. Nobody in
- 16:22Speaker 1: the AFC. You can say, well, Indianapolis a little bit,
- 16:25Speaker 1: but nobody in the AFC West has been able to
- 16:28Speaker 1: capitalize on that early faceplant. The Chargers won all these
- 16:31Speaker 1: divisional games earlier. Oh, right, there you go, this is
- 16:33Speaker 1: the Chargers year. Everything's great. They're set up now. Boom
- 16:36Speaker 1: boom boom, division win, division win, division win, They're ready
- 16:39Speaker 1: to go, and now we look like we look at
- 16:41Speaker 1: it right.
- 16:42Speaker 2: Now and yeah, faceplan.
- 16:45Speaker 1: So the division led by the Chargers early and they
- 16:50Speaker 1: had a shot to bury Kansas City.
- 16:52Speaker 2: They didn't do it.
- 16:53Speaker 1: We all know that nobody in the AFC West took
- 16:55Speaker 1: advantage of it. As we said, so the division is
- 16:58Speaker 1: still up for grabs at this point and now Kansas City.
- 17:01Speaker 1: As of right now, the Chiefs are back in the
- 17:05Speaker 1: playoff picture. They are the last team in the wild
- 17:09Speaker 1: card around. They're the last team in the playoffs at
- 17:13Speaker 1: this point and still have a shot to be the
- 17:16Speaker 1: number one seed in the Also, the schedule sets up
- 17:21Speaker 1: nicely Kansas City. There is no momentum, so we know that. However,
- 17:26Speaker 1: they are playing with some confidence now they have up ahead.
- 17:29Speaker 1: If you look, you've got the Bills, Broncos, and Colts upcoming.
- 17:33Speaker 1: Is also buy mixed in and so those are massive
- 17:37Speaker 1: swing games both in the division and then just the
- 17:40Speaker 1: overall hierarchy in the AFC down the line. So Kansas City,
- 17:44Speaker 1: I'm trying to say, if you like horror movies, Kansas
- 17:48Speaker 1: City this season it's like that classic Child's Play.
- 17:53Speaker 2: Remember that movie. It's all movie.
- 17:54Speaker 1: Now, all my references are old, I guess, but Child's
- 17:57Speaker 1: Play and that was where Chucky was at the.
- 18:00Speaker 2: Beginning of the movie. There he was.
- 18:01Speaker 1: Burned, shot and dismembered, and somehow, because it's Hollywood, managed
- 18:05Speaker 1: to come back. Why not Kansas City to begin the
- 18:08Speaker 1: year was burn shot and dismembered. And they have come
- 18:11Speaker 1: back now and they're right in the middle of it
- 18:13Speaker 1: in the AFC and Mahomes is breathing like a dragon
- 18:18Speaker 1: with fire. Andy Reids is suddenly smart again, and we're
- 18:22Speaker 1: on our way. Of course, the conspiracy theorist will so well,
- 18:24Speaker 1: yeah but yeah, but yeah, but yeah about the NFL
- 18:26Speaker 1: wants someone to win because the Taylor swip.
- 18:28Speaker 2: Yeah but yeah but yeah it yeah it, yeah it,
- 18:29Speaker 2: yeah it, yeah it yeah it rabbit they yabbit rabbit
- 18:32Speaker 2: all right.
- 18:32Speaker 1: Now, final point to Dallas, we go bad football makes
- 18:36Speaker 1: for good talk radio.
- 18:38Speaker 2: We love talking about the bad. We love it.
- 18:41Speaker 1: We love it, we love it, we love it. So
- 18:43Speaker 1: humiliation situation in Dallas question coach Brian Schottenheimer, the sock
- 18:51Speaker 1: puppet coach of Jerry Jones football team, is promising change, change,
- 18:56Speaker 1: change this after the Denver bronc rubbed the Cowboys face
- 19:03Speaker 1: in their own poo poo in the game on Sunday,
- 19:06Speaker 1: dominating win as Schottenheimer says there's going to be change.
- 19:09Speaker 1: He also said it is not acceptable the way the
- 19:13Speaker 1: Dallas football team played. So question what changes can Shoty?
- 19:18Speaker 1: What changes can Shoty make for the Cowboys? That is
- 19:22Speaker 1: the question. So a Schottenheimer banging the podium, right, this
- 19:27Speaker 1: is the classic.
- 19:27Speaker 2: I'm going to bang the podium is what I'm going to.
- 19:30Speaker 1: Do, and say, changes coming, changes coming. Now, we've seen
- 19:35Speaker 1: this movie before.
- 19:37Speaker 2: And spider light spiler alert.
- 19:39Speaker 1: Yes, we know how it ends. We know it ends.
- 19:43Speaker 1: Two weeks from now or three weeks from now. The
- 19:45Speaker 1: Cowboys will give up a fifty point game to somebody.
- 19:49Speaker 1: But change, change, change, Do I have the change? This
- 19:55Speaker 1: is pure window dressing. It's pure window dressing. It's paint
- 19:59Speaker 1: on a foundation, trying to sell the house before the
- 20:02Speaker 1: person buying the house realizes the foundation is cracked on
- 20:05Speaker 1: the house. So what's gonna change? You can't change the roster.
- 20:09Speaker 1: I know the trade deadline is coming up. You're not
- 20:11Speaker 1: gonna trade half the roster, which is seemingly what you're
- 20:14Speaker 1: going to have to do. Right, So the defense is
- 20:17Speaker 1: wobbly in Dallas. They're three four and one, they have
- 20:21Speaker 1: a losing record. Dak Prescott is putting up video game
- 20:24Speaker 1: numbers where the fantasy football players have their pants down.
- 20:27Speaker 1: They're so excited about that, and it doesn't mean a
- 20:30Speaker 1: damn thing. It does not mean a damn thing. It
- 20:34Speaker 1: does not And so it's kind of like putting lipstick
- 20:38Speaker 1: on a quarterback draw. And that's essentially what they're doing.
- 20:43Speaker 1: This is the most fun, most fun, fun bad NFL team.
- 20:49Speaker 2: And now fun bad is important to me. That's important.
- 20:52Speaker 2: You just want to be bad.
- 20:53Speaker 1: You want to be fun bad. Fun bad's a good
- 20:55Speaker 1: kind of bad. You can't just be bad bad, fun bad.
- 20:58Speaker 1: That's the way to go.
- 21:00Speaker 2: Dallas is like.
- 21:01Speaker 1: The Circus Circus Midway in Vegas. And when you go
- 21:06Speaker 1: to the Circus Circus Midway in Vegas, it's a much
- 21:08Speaker 1: different experience when you're nine years old as opposed to
- 21:10Speaker 1: when you're fifty years old, it's much different experience. Right,
- 21:13Speaker 1: you go to the Circus Circus Midway in Vegas. They've
- 21:15Speaker 1: got flashing lights, there's a lot of noise, there's a
- 21:19Speaker 1: lot of activity, there's carnival games, there's chaos. Everyone seems
- 21:23Speaker 1: to be having a great time. But deep down in
- 21:27Speaker 1: your soul, you know it's kind of a dump. That's
- 21:31Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys, right. Everyone looks like they're having a
- 21:33Speaker 1: good time. They're having fun. There's a lot of flashing lights,
- 21:36Speaker 1: there's a lot of chaos and all that. But deep down,
- 21:38Speaker 1: you know, they blow. They absolutely blow. They score a
- 21:43Speaker 1: lot of points, they give up a lot of points,
- 21:46Speaker 1: and there's always a lot of drama, which is good
- 21:48Speaker 1: if you're a fledgling overnight talk show host like yours.
- 21:51Speaker 1: Truly so, Jerry Jones is sitting somewhere eating a big
- 21:55Speaker 1: mac and he's watching and he's seeing all the fireworks
- 21:58Speaker 1: and he's like, all.
- 21:59Speaker 2: Right, ave it, I am of it? All right?
- 22:04Speaker 1: It is the Ben Mallor Show. The just did that monologue.
- 22:07Speaker 1: The Dodgers are still playing the Blue Man.
- 22:12Speaker 2: I went along on that monologue too. Should we call
- 22:14Speaker 2: Marlin's man?
- 22:15Speaker 4: I have.
- 22:15Speaker 1: He's been texting me throughout the night. He's sitting right
- 22:18Speaker 1: behind home plate there and his orange. He's like, it's
- 22:21Speaker 1: where's Walda, where's Marlin Man? Yeah, that's my guy?
- 22:25Speaker 5: How cool is that?
- 22:26Speaker 2: He's right there. He's a fan of the show. He
- 22:28Speaker 2: goes to all the big events.
- 22:29Speaker 5: Just looked at his phone right now to text you.
- 22:31Speaker 1: He's always on his phone. No, no, he's always he's always
- 22:33Speaker 1: on his phone. But uh yeah, so maybe we'll call
- 22:35Speaker 1: him up and catch up with him. And should we
- 22:38Speaker 1: do ask a weed Man early? Should we counter program
- 22:40Speaker 1: the world too? I think that would get better ratings
- 22:42Speaker 1: Ask a weed Man than the World? So cool?
- 22:44Speaker 2: What do you think here? Maybe break that in?
- 22:45Speaker 1: Wait a minute, the Dodgers, you gotta runner on here,
- 22:48Speaker 1: a couple outs in the seventeenth thing. We're not allowed
- 22:51Speaker 1: to do play by play. So this is like a
- 22:52Speaker 1: ten minute delay that happened ten minutes ago. You know,
- 22:55Speaker 1: you know, you know, he's the most upset Steve Desager.
- 22:59Speaker 1: We got a lit updates again, baby, live updates help
- 23:04Speaker 1: Set's the company gonna they have to pay to Saga
- 23:06Speaker 1: to be here? Holy crap, they're not paying you live?
- 23:09Speaker 1: Oh wait, you actually have pride in your work? You
- 23:11Speaker 1: want to stay and do it? You don't wanna? And
- 23:13Speaker 1: you see, there are I'm not gonna name names here,
- 23:15Speaker 1: but there are some people, Steve who work here who
- 23:18Speaker 1: might say and the Dodger World series game was tied
- 23:22Speaker 1: at five at press time.
- 23:25Speaker 6: So, in other words, they work for the La Times.
- 23:28Speaker 1: Yes, that's what newspapers do. It's so expensive to print newspapers.
- 23:32Speaker 1: They just whatever time the deadline is, that's it.
- 23:35Speaker 2: That's all. We're not gonna the blue, just gonna walk
- 23:38Speaker 2: o tany a fifth time.
- 23:39Speaker 6: You cannot possibly do this. There's a man on first.
- 23:42Speaker 2: Why a man? There are people they're gonna that's gonna
- 23:45Speaker 2: be the story from this game. To say, we'll get
- 23:46Speaker 2: into it later. You'll be gone by then.
- 23:48Speaker 1: Hopefully maybe not, you might be here all night. But
- 23:50Speaker 1: there you say. We got to get rid of that
- 23:52Speaker 1: intentional walk rule. It's not good for baseball.
- 23:55Speaker 6: You're taking the I've had some good suggestions actually that
- 23:58Speaker 6: if you intentionally walk a guy the second time, he
- 24:00Speaker 6: gets two bases. Yeah, the third time.
- 24:02Speaker 1: Or yeah, that's a that's an idea that I was
- 24:04Speaker 1: kicking around in my head too.
- 24:05Speaker 6: I think it's or that if it's extra innings, he
- 24:08Speaker 6: gets two bases instead of one.
- 24:10Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 24:11Speaker 6: By the way, I did read that a Monday night
- 24:13Speaker 6: football game you were talking about, Yes, even after a
- 24:15Speaker 6: flight delay home. Washington is halfway home from Kansas City,
- 24:19Speaker 6: and their game started after the baseball game.
- 24:22Speaker 1: Like I said, I was watching both and if I
- 24:24Speaker 1: had known this game was going to go along, so
- 24:26Speaker 1: they are pitching due a Tani.
- 24:27Speaker 2: By the way, he's four for four four walks. Is
- 24:29Speaker 2: that right?
- 24:30Speaker 6: For four straight intentional walks has never happened in a
- 24:33Speaker 6: postseason game. Hits never, No one's ever reached base eight
- 24:35Speaker 6: times in a playoff game before.
- 24:37Speaker 2: You know who's also upset about this? Rob Parker, because
- 24:39Speaker 2: what's he gonna say? I can't rip all Tani? I mean,
- 24:42Speaker 2: what am I gonna.
- 24:42Speaker 6: Do yet another Rob Parker take that is aged like
- 24:45Speaker 6: the cheese.
- 24:47Speaker 1: Here's the thing though, too, and you know we're going
- 24:49Speaker 1: along and that's okay, who cares?
- 24:51Speaker 2: No, you know we're skipped the update. Yeah we're there's
- 24:54Speaker 2: no bottom of our update.
- 24:55Speaker 1: But but no, the the the Blue Jays, if they
- 24:58Speaker 1: don't win this game. How many innings have they gone
- 25:00Speaker 1: against the Dodger bullpen, which is the kryptonite of the Dodgers.
- 25:03Speaker 6: Nine shutout innings?
- 25:05Speaker 1: Oh my god, that is put that on the Bengal corner.
- 25:09Speaker 1: I can't believe there's no chitting nine innings with those stiffs,
- 25:13Speaker 1: those dog with fleas.
- 25:14Speaker 2: Nine innings.
- 25:15Speaker 6: They're literally on their innings. Last reliever Will Klein has
- 25:19Speaker 6: had to throw three innings and he has four striking.
- 25:23Speaker 1: I bet your rob Manford comes back and says, well,
- 25:25Speaker 1: we must bring some pictures back. But they can't even
- 25:27Speaker 1: bring pictures back because you know, bunch pitchers.
- 25:29Speaker 2: Are out of the game.
- 25:29Speaker 1: That's it, they said, because out of it a bundans
- 25:31Speaker 1: of caution, you can't bring them back.
- 25:33Speaker 6: This is the last reliever Toronto has that they just
- 25:35Speaker 6: put in little and they have tomorrow night's starting pitcher
- 25:39Speaker 6: down in the pen. Shane Bieber justin with Justin Bieber
- 25:43Speaker 6: at the game. But I guess you could, oh Bieber
- 25:45Speaker 6: and Bieber. Bieber is a proud Canadian, just right. Yeah,
- 25:49Speaker 6: this Shane Bieber is from southern California, Okay, but I don't.
- 25:51Speaker 2: Think he's pulling for the Dodgers. I don't think that,
- 25:53Speaker 2: all right.
- 25:54Speaker 6: So literally not tonight. And there are rumors of sideline
- 25:58Speaker 6: reporters saying that Yamamoto, through the translator, had a message
- 26:02Speaker 6: sent to Dave Roberts. So if the Dodgers run out
- 26:05Speaker 6: of pitchers, maybe they haven't run out of pictures.
- 26:09Speaker 1: Hmmm.
- 26:10Speaker 2: Interesting. All right, Well we'll see.
- 26:12Speaker 1: It'd be great if a game imagine how great if
- 26:15Speaker 1: the World Series comes down to like a position player
- 26:17Speaker 1: pitching yeah, kick out here.
- 26:18Speaker 6: And end is fifty miles an hour. Here we go.
- 26:21Speaker 1: All right, well, that'll definitely change some rules for sure.
- 26:24Speaker 1: The lad extra pitchures. All right, it is the Ben
- 26:26Speaker 1: Malo Show. The rain has told me if I do
- 26:27Speaker 1: not stop talking here, she will poke my eyeballs out
- 26:29Speaker 1: doing I do not want my eyeballs poked out, So
- 26:32Speaker 1: out of an abundance of caution on my end, I've
- 26:34Speaker 1: decided to move ahead in the broadcast. All right, we

- 28:57Speaker 5: They're old enough to move out now.
- 28:59Speaker 1: Yeah, eighteen innings, Holy, holy crap, as it's still going
- 29:04Speaker 1: on and on and on, and is there gonna be
- 29:07Speaker 1: a replay review on this wonderful outstanding And the Dodgers
- 29:11Speaker 1: are out of pitchers, so they've got somebody warming up
- 29:14Speaker 1: in the bullpen who just pitched not long ago. And uh,
- 29:19Speaker 1: this is not part of the script. The Dodgers have
- 29:21Speaker 1: this all. Everyth game is scripted by the Dodgers. This
- 29:23Speaker 1: is definitely not part of the script. There might have
- 29:26Speaker 1: been like a supercomputer update or something like that. They
- 29:29Speaker 1: had to check with the algorithm for the Internet figure
- 29:32Speaker 1: things out. As the Yoshinobu Yamamoto is warming up in
- 29:37Speaker 1: the Dodger bullpen, so how many Dodgers have used how
- 29:42Speaker 1: many pitchers we had? Ten?
- 29:44Speaker 2: Is it over ten? It's got to be over ten, right,
- 29:46Speaker 2: is it over ten? Eleven?
- 29:48Speaker 1: Okay, that'd be over ten. Eleven is over ten. That's
- 29:52Speaker 1: where we where we are at this point. Now, I
- 29:54Speaker 1: mentioned the NFL. As we juggle, we are able to
- 29:58Speaker 1: spend a lot of plates here. It's called talk radio.
- 30:01Speaker 1: So the NFL card this week, and I usually go
- 30:04Speaker 1: with underdogs. I lean towards dogs. If you watch Benny
- 30:06Speaker 1: Versus the Penny on YouTube Benny Vspenny on YouTube, you
- 30:10Speaker 1: know that I got my lunch handed.
- 30:11Speaker 2: To me this week. Well, not not the good, not
- 30:16Speaker 2: the good.
- 30:17Speaker 1: Yeah, that was not a great week for me at
- 30:19Speaker 1: all humiliating, But it was not a great week for
- 30:22Speaker 1: the NFL. This was the first week in the NFL
- 30:26Speaker 1: with only one game decided by single digits, and that
- 30:29Speaker 1: was the Jets come back when they were down by
- 30:31Speaker 1: two touchdowns in the game in Cincinnati and Bengals blew
- 30:36Speaker 1: the lead.
- 30:36Speaker 2: Jets came back and won that game.
- 30:38Speaker 1: So only one game decided by single digits, first time
- 30:42Speaker 1: since Week fourteen in the nineteen seventy nineteen seventy season.
- 30:49Speaker 1: My math tells me that's fifty five years ago, the
- 30:52Speaker 1: last time that something like this happened. So just uncompetitive
- 30:57Speaker 1: football over the place, all over the place. Scrooge in
- 31:03Speaker 1: the younger Demo in the Bay Area rights and he says,
- 31:06Speaker 1: I've watched every damn inning of this World Series game.
- 31:10Speaker 2: And the next game is in a couple of hours.
- 31:16Speaker 1: Well, as the crow flies, it's relatively a short amount
- 31:20Speaker 1: of time.
- 31:20Speaker 2: I'm sure the players will be okay, it'll be right.
- 31:24Speaker 5: Is that the sun coming up already?
- 31:26Speaker 2: Tomorrow? Tomorrow is another day. It's primetime in Tokyo.
- 31:30Speaker 1: Didn't they put that graphic up on the Fox broadcast
- 31:32Speaker 1: that it's three like three something in the afternoon, three
- 31:35Speaker 1: thirty or something like that in the afternoon in Tokyo.
- 31:37Speaker 2: So why not? And this game is likely going to
- 31:40Speaker 2: pass the game I was at, which I'm annoyed by.
- 31:42Speaker 5: I'm up so cool they get a daytime game like that.
- 31:45Speaker 1: Man Steve de Seger's at the news desk here. It's
- 31:48Speaker 1: kind of cool to have an update, guy, I missed those.
- 31:50Speaker 1: We were both at that eighteen inning game twenty eighteen
- 31:53Speaker 1: World Series. You switch seats, as I recall. But by
- 31:56Speaker 1: the way, with Will Klein coming in for a fourth inning.
- 31:59Speaker 1: He still pitch your ten. I correct myself that Yamamoto
- 32:02Speaker 1: warming up in the pen Arty pitcher eleven.
- 32:05Speaker 5: Because we wait, can I play your sounder, Steve? I
- 32:07Speaker 5: never get to play.
- 32:08Speaker 1: Here we go, Steve, just say you hear the news desk,
- 32:11Speaker 1: we have alive. Question was asked me, Hey, let's get
- 32:15Speaker 1: an update World Series Game three. It's still going ended
- 32:19Speaker 1: about eight pm Eastern.
- 32:20Speaker 6: We'll have World Series Game four on Tuesday nights, and
- 32:24Speaker 6: there's still a game five Wednesday in La.
- 32:26Speaker 1: Really one thing that I did play. I haven't thrown
- 32:29Speaker 1: to an update in a year. I don't know how
- 32:31Speaker 1: to do this. I've lost my chops.
- 32:33Speaker 5: With the babbler for the button.
- 32:35Speaker 6: With the Dodgers hitting at least two to the wall,
- 32:38Speaker 6: it didn't go out, and so I like, we're still
- 32:41Speaker 6: playing the.
- 32:42Speaker 2: Base running by the Dodgers. I like the both ways,
- 32:45Speaker 2: the yeah, defensive faux pause, you know outs at third,
- 32:49Speaker 2: little weird things.
- 32:51Speaker 1: Uh well, Tommy Edmonds, I guess he's made up for it,
- 32:53Speaker 1: but absolutely bonehead play with.
- 32:55Speaker 6: The bad ankle. He's now pushed into center field. Mookie
- 32:58Speaker 6: Bets also screwed something.
- 32:59Speaker 1: I mean, there's already Freeman built out a couple of
- 33:01Speaker 1: Max Month's Eagles shake you at third base?
- 33:03Speaker 6: Yeah, oh, plenty of these you could have. Well, this
- 33:06Speaker 6: is going to become a book. So is this the
- 33:07Speaker 6: first eight game World Series?
- 33:09Speaker 1: Now? Because we're at eighteen innings? So I guess we
- 33:11Speaker 1: did have one where the game we were at so
- 33:12Speaker 1: that's a second? Well, yeah, it was five, that's right.
- 33:16Speaker 6: Was that was the only game the Dodgers won the
- 33:19Speaker 6: Red Sox was Max Monthly homer in the eighteenth. That
- 33:22Speaker 6: was not nearly as exciting as this one has been.
- 33:25Speaker 6: By the way, for what.
- 33:26Speaker 2: It's worth, are you saying this that was a lesser
- 33:28Speaker 2: game we attended? This is more exciting. That was back when.
- 33:31Speaker 6: Baseball was a little bit more home run or strikeout.
- 33:34Speaker 6: Let's say this has had, as you just mentioned, between
- 33:39Speaker 6: the fielding and the base running and the hitting and
- 33:41Speaker 6: the not hitting, it's had something for everybody.
- 33:43Speaker 1: I do like the runners left on base stat where
- 33:45Speaker 1: the blue are they pets? A World Series record? They
- 33:48Speaker 1: were at combine, they were at sixteen, seventeen seventeen though
- 33:51Speaker 1: eighteen for the Dodgers left on base.
- 33:53Speaker 5: Keep it going, keep it going. Let's just keep nineteen twenty.
- 33:56Speaker 6: Yeah, it is one of my many favorite stats. Is
- 34:00Speaker 6: what Chicago guy tweeted that. Here we had sho hey
- 34:02Speaker 6: o Tani tie the world Series record four extra base
- 34:05Speaker 6: hits in a game. He set a World Series record
- 34:08Speaker 6: with five walks in the game, both in the same game. Wow,
- 34:12Speaker 6: he's been on base nine times.
- 34:14Speaker 2: But again the four intentional walks, right.
- 34:16Speaker 6: Is correct. And then they just pitched around him last time.
- 34:19Speaker 1: And the Dodgers have not scored. Both teams scored in
- 34:22Speaker 1: the seventh, right, so nobody's scored in the last ten.
- 34:26Speaker 1: I'm gonna jinx them, right, I'm about to jink some
- 34:28Speaker 1: I don't want to say, but they haven't scored since
- 34:30Speaker 1: in the eighteenth, and it's been since the seventh. And
- 34:32Speaker 1: there's always somebody that takes the takes the cake for suckage.
- 34:36Speaker 1: Who's the guy in this game? You mean like an
- 34:40Speaker 1: OH for six. I don't see any six months he's
- 34:43Speaker 1: OH for seven. Okay, that's he's the worst. I see
- 34:46Speaker 1: Tommy Edmond one for eight. That doesn't seem particularly And.
- 34:49Speaker 6: George Springer may not be available for the rest of
- 34:52Speaker 6: the week, for all weeks.
- 34:53Speaker 2: That would be a shame.
- 34:54Speaker 6: The DH was booed the loudest pre gamet Houston the
- 34:59Speaker 6: buzzer checking with He was injured on a swing and
- 35:04Speaker 6: had to be replaced. So they've had three different guys
- 35:06Speaker 6: in the leadoff.
- 35:07Speaker 2: Spots for the day.
- 35:08Speaker 1: I could swing a bat, I'll get hurt, all right,
- 35:10Speaker 1: I could swing a bat, all right? Uh oh, hold
- 35:12Speaker 1: on sick? Now did the little check swing.
- 35:14Speaker 2: In ball four? All four?
- 35:16Speaker 4: Wow?
- 35:17Speaker 6: Dodgers were walking off the field. They thought they had
- 35:19Speaker 6: strike three instead two outs. Top of the eighth is
- 35:21Speaker 6: now first and second for the Toronto Blue Jays. Okay,
- 35:25Speaker 6: holy plot thickings. The plot thick can't get any thicker.
- 35:29Speaker 6: This is tying. By the way, the postseason record the
- 35:31Speaker 6: longest game eighteen innings, better.
- 35:33Speaker 5: Than a snicker.
- 35:34Speaker 6: That game that you referenced early, it was seven hours,
- 35:38Speaker 6: twenty minutes Dodgers Red Sox Game three of the twenty
- 35:41Speaker 6: eighteen Right, and like.
- 35:43Speaker 2: Was it one in the morning? Is I remember leaving
- 35:45Speaker 2: the stadium?
- 35:46Speaker 6: Was? Yeah, I say it would be a similar five
- 35:48Speaker 6: o'clock Pacific start, So add seven hours and twenty minutes.
- 35:51Speaker 2: They said there would be no math to say I
- 35:53Speaker 2: got a radio. If I was good at math, I
- 35:54Speaker 2: would have gotten.
- 35:55Speaker 6: This is only six hours in something here because it
- 35:58Speaker 6: started at about five ten Pacific.
- 36:00Speaker 2: Well, so I've only watched the last seven innings. What happened?
- 36:03Speaker 1: What happened?
- 36:03Speaker 2: Were you doing the rest of what happened to Boba? Shad?
- 36:07Speaker 1: Does he he hasn't been playing full games just because
- 36:11Speaker 1: he had a bat off. So both second basement for
- 36:14Speaker 1: the Blue Jays got four bats and the game is
- 36:16Speaker 1: still going on.
- 36:17Speaker 6: Yeah, oh boys, the game still better? Well maybe not
- 36:20Speaker 6: one of the When one of the infielders for the
- 36:22Speaker 6: Blue Jays fouled the ball off his leg in the
- 36:24Speaker 6: last few innings, immediately they said he has to stay in.
- 36:28Speaker 6: They literally don't have anybody else.
- 36:30Speaker 2: They could play with eight guys. You know, No, what's
- 36:33Speaker 2: the name of the Blue Jays mascot?
- 36:35Speaker 1: Do we know that?
- 36:35Speaker 2: Do they have they have a mask?
- 36:36Speaker 1: Them?
- 36:37Speaker 2: They do? Guy? Yeah, I don't know what the name
- 36:38Speaker 2: of the mascot is.
- 36:39Speaker 1: All right? Anyway, suner luck, I need to pause for
- 36:42Speaker 1: the causer, but I don't want to go in until
- 36:44Speaker 1: this half inning's over, so I'm trying to time it perfectly.
- 36:46Speaker 2: Here is their mascot, Yeah, Ace is the blue Jays
- 36:49Speaker 2: maskt What a great name. Yeah, I don't know bout
- 36:51Speaker 2: that anyway. If you'd like to be.
- 36:53Speaker 1: Part eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox, It's the
- 36:57Speaker 1: Ben Maler Show. We're here hanging out all night. The
- 36:59Speaker 1: World Series is still going on. Blue Jays have the
- 37:03Speaker 1: potential winning run at second base, the go ahead run
- 37:06Speaker 1: which could turn out to be the winning run there
- 37:09Speaker 1: at Dodger Stadium in the eighteenth inning. Couple outs and
- 37:13Speaker 1: I only get a runner at third, so they're set
- 37:15Speaker 1: up to possibly take the lead here in the eighteenth inning.
- 37:18Speaker 2: All right, it is the Ben Mahlord Show. Time now
- 37:21Speaker 2: for the who am I? Game? You can answer this
- 37:23Speaker 2: on the X machine at Ben Mallard. It's the who
- 37:27Speaker 2: am I? Game?
- 37:29Speaker 1: And here it is so Patrick mahomes three hundred and
- 37:32Speaker 1: eight career touchdown passes in the regular season after the
- 37:36Speaker 1: game on Monday night, and that includes the regular season
- 37:40Speaker 1: in the playoffs, and he is now tied with me
- 37:42Speaker 1: for the sixteenth most touchdown passes in the history the
- 37:47Speaker 1: all time history of the NFL.
- 37:49Speaker 2: Who am I? That is the question? The answer? And
- 37:52Speaker 2: will we get the end to Game three of the
- 37:54Speaker 2: World Series. We'll get to all that and we will
- 37:56Speaker 2: do it next.
- 37:58Speaker 4: Be sure to catch live edition. And so the Ben
- 38:00Speaker 4: Maller Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific,
- 38:04Speaker 4: it is all over.
- 38:05Speaker 2: At Dodgers Stadium. Freddie Freeman in the Night the Dodgers.
- 38:11Speaker 2: The Dodgers have.
- 38:12Speaker 1: Won Game three of the World Series in the eighteen
- 38:17Speaker 1: in All Night Affair ends. The Dodgers are up two
- 38:21Speaker 1: games to one in the Fall Classic. As Freddie Freeman
- 38:26Speaker 1: to dead center field in the eighteenth inning, he ends it,
- 38:32Speaker 1: and so the Dodgers now are two wins away from
- 38:34Speaker 1: becoming the first team since the Yankees, the Joe Tory
- 38:39Speaker 1: managed New York Yankees with Jeter and Paul O'Neil and
- 38:43Speaker 1: all those guys back if you're old enough to remember
- 38:45Speaker 1: the nineties, Dodgers trying to become the first team to
- 38:49Speaker 1: do that, and Freddy Freeman the first played with multiple
- 38:52Speaker 1: walk off hall runs in the history of the World Series,
- 38:54Speaker 1: according to the Fox graphics that they had on the
- 38:56Speaker 1: TV there. So it is the Ben Maler Show as
- 39:00Speaker 1: we are rolling, rolling, rolling through.
- 39:03Speaker 2: The overnight, and we will certainly take some reaction.
- 39:08Speaker 1: To that. Now, the real question is, as we continue
- 39:12Speaker 1: the show here is how long will we be covered
- 39:15Speaker 1: up because I know that we're on the Dodger flagship
- 39:19Speaker 1: in LA. The game ends, it's about midnight in LA.
- 39:23Speaker 1: So does that mean they go to like one in
- 39:27Speaker 1: the morning.
- 39:28Speaker 2: Do they go to two in the morning like a
- 39:30Speaker 2: post show?
- 39:31Speaker 1: Right, Well, they will have a postgame show, and I'm
- 39:34Speaker 1: sure none of our guys will call up and say,
- 39:37Speaker 1: where's the Ben Maler Show, because that would be wrong
- 39:39Speaker 1: to do that.
- 39:39Speaker 2: You should not do this.
- 39:40Speaker 1: You should not call up Dodger postgame talk and say
- 39:43Speaker 1: I want to hear the Ben Maler Show. You should
- 39:45Speaker 1: not do that at all. But Freddie Freeman, your world
- 39:49Speaker 1: serious hero, and somewhere Nasty Nester, somewhere Nasty Nestern Cortes
- 39:54Speaker 1: who was with the Potterys at the end of last year,
- 39:56Speaker 1: who served up that big fat meatball to Freddie Freeman
- 39:59Speaker 1: in Game number one of the World Series last year,
- 40:03Speaker 1: that classic home run against the Yankees at Chavez Ravine.
- 40:06Speaker 1: So here's another great Freddie Freeman moment. And somewhere in Atlanta,
- 40:10Speaker 1: Tommy in Atlanta is very upset, very angry. I gotta
- 40:13Speaker 1: pay off the who am I game, or else I'm
- 40:15Speaker 1: gonna get kicked in the in the nuts. So I'm
- 40:16Speaker 1: gonna do that right now. Here is the who am I?
- 40:19Speaker 2: Game?
- 40:19Speaker 1: So Patrick Maholmes had a big night, big second half.
- 40:23Speaker 1: He's got three hundred and eight career touchdown passes in
- 40:25Speaker 1: the regular season in the playoffs. That is tied with
- 40:27Speaker 1: me for sixteenth all time. Who am I? That is
- 40:33Speaker 1: the question? What is the answer? And let's see does
- 40:37Speaker 1: anyone know the answer? Page down here? I can't read that.
