  Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio.
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: It was a big night and it was a silent night,
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: not what you were hoping for. If you're a fan
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: of a certain basketball team. Welcome in the beginning of
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: another night of the Ben Mahler Show. We are in
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: the air every wares. We come out so winging like
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: a Dodger manager, and we are the ultimate enhancer of
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: audio unless we're not cost border, the border and beyond
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: on the vast and pleasantly powerful microphones of FSR and
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: modating live from the fetti as in the confetti that
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: wasn't coming down from the rafters as we're hanging out
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: here from the Fox Sports Radio studios, as approved by
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: Viva Los Vicki and hoo's your bill, who's likely hammered
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: right now and he'll send us a bunch of offensive
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: comments on the social media page because the phones are
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: still left up. And then somewhere in Oklahoma City, Kyrie,
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: our buddy Kyrie, is all bummed out. He's all bummed out.
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: We'll get to that in a minute. I was gonna
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: start with the Dodgers. We're getting covered up on our
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: LA affiliate right now by Dodger post scheme programming. There
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: was a scrum that took place late in that Dodger
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: podre game, and we had belly bumping managers. Was it
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: a belly bump? Was it a shawv? Dave Roberts and
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: the podres manager getting into it. We'll talk more about
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: that as we work our way through the overnight. But
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: don't bury the lead, my man. We're not going to
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: be the lead. So our lead this hour is from
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: the home state of popcorn legend, Orville Reddenbacher, Orville Reddenbacker,
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: from Indiana. Now in Indianapolis, the heart of the Hoosier State,
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: a fine city with some really good restaurants. I was
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: there years ago, back when Reggie Miller, who's now a
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: cheerleader apparently watching the game, a cheerleader for the Pacers,
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: but he was playing before he became a cheerleader years ago,
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: and I enjoyed my time in Indianapolis. So it was
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: Game six of the NBA Finals, the Thunder looking to
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: close things out, to sellbrate good times, to celebrate a championship.
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: All they had to do was win over the beaten
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: and broken Pacers who were just trying to play that
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: Begi's tune, the stay Alive, Staying Alive and all that. Now,
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: I don't know if you were watching. I'm going to
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: assume the position, probably not based on the rating. This
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: is a FNF Finals, friends and family, Friends and family,
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: that's it. Nobody else watching. So friends and family were
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: tuned in. Don't worry though we watch. It's our public service.
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: So you would not have to an act of kindness,
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: a good mitzvah if you will. And there was the
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: headline all day. Would Tyrese Haliburton play? Would he not play?
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: What's going to happen here? Well? Playing with a strained
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: right calf, he did play, and how did he do well?
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: Tyrese Saliburton had fourteen points in just twenty three minutes,
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: and the Indiana basketball team had a laugher as they
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: celebrate it a win. They were the one celebrating over
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: Oklahoma City one oh eight ninety one, a game that
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: was not that close, a game that was not that
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: close on Thursday night. So we get a game seven,
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: which normally would be solid gold. Again, very few people
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: care about this NBA Finals based on the amount of
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: people watching it. And so there you go. Halliburton playing
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: on one good leg, on one good leg, and he
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: made some plays. It was a balanced effort. Obi topping
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: the old Knickerbocker led the Pacers with twenty points, a
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: lot of that in garbage time off the bench. Indiana
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: had not one, not two, not three, not four, not five,
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: if my math is correct, six players in double figures.
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: Because I'm told is good. I didn't play in the NBA,
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: but I'm told that's good. And they led by as
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: many as thirty one points. Thirty one points the Pacers
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: led by, and so all that's great. All that's really
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: great stuff, and congratulations to the Pacers on the win. However,
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: you know how we roll in these parts. You've been listening,
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: you're nodding your head. Yes, I know. The better story
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: is in the losing locker room. So let us discuss
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: the question for the esteem panel, which you are a part,
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: whether you participate or not, and the company's making it
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: very hard for you to participate. So the question does
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: this performance qualify as a chokey mic choke? By Shay
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: jogis Alexander and the Thunder. So my thoughts on this,
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: I've got UMass, whirlpool refrigerator, and penny slots, and we
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: will combine all of these things together and we are
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: going to make a one way ticket back to the
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: dust Bowl because that's where both these teams will be going.
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: One last night, one last night of pro bouncy ball,
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: and then it's all over or not. The last the
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: parties over a Sunday night, which I'm happy about. We
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: get one more night of content, one more night of
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: content for the show, which I'm pleased about. And I'll
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: be watching and I like Game sevens I don't really
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: care about either one of these teams, but I enjoy
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: Game seven, so I'll be watching. Hopefully we get a
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: close game. I'm looking forward to that. More on that
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: in a seconds. To the question does this performance qualify
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: as a choke? By SGA and The Thunder, the only
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: acceptable answer is three letters, y E s. That's it.
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: That's all. This game was set up. It was on
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: a pedestal. It was on a pedestal for okc No
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: Scott Foster, the NBA did not bring in the extender,
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: he was not called in off the bench to make
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: sure this series went to seven games. Indiana appeared to
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: be a bedraggled basketball team, as their star Tyres Haliburt
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: we mentioned playing with one good leg and yet you
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: look down from thirty thousand feet in the sky and
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: Oklahoma City, this performance by coach Mark Dagno and his
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: team was a I call it a U mass like
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: performance because Oklahoma City on this night, they were minute men,
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: is what they were. We did the math and we determined,
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: based on a thorough, thorough review of the available evidence,
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: that Oklahoma City played effectively good basketball for three minutes
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: and thirty four seconds period, heart stop. Three minutes and
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: thirty four seconds. Oklahoma City jumped out to a ten
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: to two lead in the game, and that was at
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: the eight to twenty six mark of the first quarter.
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: And then they had to play the rest of the game.
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: And that was the problem from that point forward. From
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: the ten to two advantage for the thunder until early
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter the thunder. We're told one of
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: the all time great individual teams were outscored by thirty
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: nine points in an NBA Finals game. Pah, tick pa
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: tick horrific. Hey, are you even trying? Are you even
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: trying to be outscored by thirty nine points in that stretcher?
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: And there the garbage time after that, And let's say
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: there was garbage time before that as well. So where
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: is the finger of blame as we turn the page?
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: Where is the finger of blame? Pointed at Burro Casey.
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: We love to play the blame game and pointing the finger.
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: Let's start with SGA, all right, Now, there's a lot
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: of letters here. You got SGA, and then I've got
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: in my algebra equation, I've got MVP. So I've got
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: SGA and then I've got MVP. And he was standing
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: right in front of the Whirlpool refrigerator. Jay jogis Alexander.
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: He was standing right in front of the refrigerator, the
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: Whirlpool refrigerator. Now he had a chance to close the
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: refrigerator door, to turn the lights out, have the eggs cooling.
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: Watch as the butter is getting hard and the jello's
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: jiggling as the iconic late great chick her and old
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: sportscasters said back in did that happen?
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: No?
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: Instead, what do we got? The Thunder had twenty one turnovers.
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: Twenty one, so bakery is what that is? Eight of
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: them by Shay Jogis Alexander eight of them, eight of them.
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: He had seven made baskets and eight turnovers. He sucked
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: at a time you cannot suck. In Game six of
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: the NBA Finals. Let's go jump ahead here to cut
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: two mark, and here's SGA pointing out that it was
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: not a good night to play basketball for OKAC. Take
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: a listen.
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: The way I see it is we suck tonight. We've
• 9:46
  Speaker 3: learned the lessons, and we have one game for everything,
• 9:51
  Speaker 3: for everything we've worked for, and so do they, and
• 9:54
  Speaker 3: the better team Sunday will win.
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: Okay, So at least he admitted he did suck at
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: a time you cannot suck. So we appreciate that that
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: is the first step to rehabilitation when you're riding the
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: vomit comet. Here is SGA asked whether or not the
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: Thunder had championship dreams and they were already imagining what
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: it would be like to do that big postgame celebration
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: winning the title in game six years. What do you
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: have to say on that?
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: See in the back of our minds for sure. Now,
• 10:25
  Speaker 3: we didn't play like it at all, and that's why
• 10:27
  Speaker 3: the night went the way it did. We got exactly
• 10:30
  Speaker 3: what we deserved, what we earned, and we have to
• 10:34
  Speaker 3: own that.
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: See, I would argue they played like they thought they
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: had the game in the bag. If you saw anything
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: leading up to this game, it was a fata complete.
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: It was in the back. What's in the back, championship, championship.
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: It was in the back, championship in the back. Just
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: show up. That's it. You're done, You're good, You're gonna win. Man. Now,
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: the coach of the Thunder, Mark Dagnell, pointing out out
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: they were closed, they were right there and they can
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: almost taste the champions yep. Coach explain that to me.
• 11:08
  Speaker 4: It was hard tonight. You know, Indiana was great and
• 11:11
  Speaker 4: we were not. So we have the same opportunity Indiana
• 11:15
  Speaker 4: does on Sunday, scorell by zero zero when the ball
• 11:18
  Speaker 4: goes up in the air. It's a privilege to play
• 11:20
  Speaker 4: in game sevens as a privilege to play in the finals.
• 11:23
  Speaker 4: As disappointing as tonight was, we're grateful for the opportunity
• 11:27
  Speaker 4: and we put in a lot of work this season
• 11:29
  Speaker 4: to be able to play that game at home, you know,
• 11:31
  Speaker 4: which is exciting to be able to do it in
• 11:32
  Speaker 4: front of our fans. So, you know, obviously disappointed tonight,
• 11:36
  Speaker 4: but we'll regroup, get back to zero, learn from it
• 11:39
  Speaker 4: with clear eyes, like we always do, get ourselves as
• 11:42
  Speaker 4: ready as we can be to play game seven on Sunday.
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: That's nothing but cliches. That is sportscliche dot Com from
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: Mark Dagnow, Dagno, who is just going on and on?
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: I mean, that was at least seven right now. I
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: was alerted by one of our eagle eared listeners who
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: said that right after the game. And I turned the
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: game off right after the game because there was no
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: point and who cares. But I'm told that the point
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: guard Tyrese Haliburton of the Pacers went full on sports
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: cliche guy also on the television interview. I've not heard
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: that yet. We'll try to track that down, but he
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: apparently just gave nothing but cliches in his interview. But
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: back to the point at hand, So we mentioned SGA
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: seven made baskets, eight turnovers, and who else gets to
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: wear the clown knows? How about loud Dort, the Great
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: Loude Dort, Jalen Williams, and Alex Caruso, the three Musketeers
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: of Misery, the three Musketeers of Misery co conspirators behind
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: SGA for this performance. Now, Dort wasn't dud Loude Dort
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: was a doune. He finished with three points. He had
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: a minus twenty eight on the plus minus. That means
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: while he was on the court, his team was outscored
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: by twenty How about alx Caruso, the one that got
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: away from the Lakers, the bald Mamba, the bald mamba
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: who played like a bald middle aged man. He had
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: a cardio game. It was like he was playing the ymca,
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: running around doing cardio. He finished with as many points
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: as you and I had. That's it, zilch zip O,
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: zip Na. As my friend and former FSR personalities Jama
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: would say, Didley squat in twenty two minutes twenty two
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: minutes and the Thunder were outscored by thirty three points
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: with Alex Caruso, the Bald Mamba, the White Mamba, as
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: some call him on the floor. How about Jalen Williams.
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: You talk about a forty for forty he said hold
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: my beer to lud Dort and he said, hold my beer.
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: Alex Caruso. Jay Williams had sixteen points. If I'm not mistaken,
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: he had forty points in the previous game in the finals.
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: While he was on the court, the thunder were outscored
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: by forty. And again, I didn't play in the NBA.
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: I'm not a baller. I'm just a gas bag. I
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: don't believe that's particularly good. But what do I know?
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: What do I He was on the court, a guy
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: that was in the running and still is in the
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: running for finals. MVP of Oklahoma City wins. It's gonna
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: be SGA or Jalen Williams and outscored by forty forty points?
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: All right, now the last word here. So we do
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: have a Game seven of the NBA Finals. It is
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: on Sunday night. I believe it is going to be
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: broadcast on some random channel on tub I think I believe.
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: Maybe I'm wrong on that. Maybe I'm wrong on that.
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: So who's got the edge heading into Game seven? A
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: first glance knee jerk. Look at game seven, we will
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: not have a live talk show. I'll do the podcast
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: this weekend. We'll have the Friday, Saturday, Sunday pods and
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: all that. But who's got the edge heading into Game
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: seven between the Pacers and the Thunder? So I'm going
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: with Indiana. Oh, you're just being a shock jock. No,
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: I'm not. Let me. Let me give you my rationale.
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: Let me give you my my evidence. I'll state my
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: case why I believe the Indiana Pacers have a slight edge.
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: It's not a large edge, it's a slight edge. Here's why.
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: Imagine if you will being at the casino and you're
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: playing the penny slots. Now, the penny slots make the
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: most money for the casino. They make more money from
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: the penny slots than anything else in the casino. That's
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: why there's so many penny slots because they're not really
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: penny slots.
• 15:40
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: You end up playing much more than just one penny,
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: and so you're paying. You're playing the penny slots and
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: you get fifty free plays, fifty free spins. That's the Pacers.
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: They're playing with house money. They're unencumbered. They can play
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: free and loose. That doesn't mean they are gonna play
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: that way, but they can't. Oklahoma City has had, I'm
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: told by many basketball toe lickers, a all time great
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: historical season, sixty eight wins during the regular season. They're
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: at home, they're favored by I believe they opened at nine.
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: I believe they're favored by eight points in the game
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: on Sunday, the overnight line, so favored by eight. You've
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: got the MVP of the NBA, you're dining on your
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: home cooking. You're supposed to win the game. All of
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: those ingredients are in your favor and they're all ingredients
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: for what tight took his syndrome, the tight spinter feeling,
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: the squeeze. And this is one of those situations where
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: Oklahoma City, by their gutless performance in Game six, just pathetic.
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: This is an f around and find out chart situation.
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: U f around and you're gonna find out Game seven.
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: Matchups do not matter, doesn't matter what you think, who
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: you think has an edged, The film doesn't really matter.
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: Who cares about that? And home court doesn't matter. Injuries
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: don't matter. The only thing that matters. And this is
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: why we love game seven is who does better in
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: that moment? Is the great Dick Stockton taught me years ago.
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: Stats tell you what has happened, not what's going to happen.
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: That's why they play their games. So OKC has ft around,
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: they played with their food and now it's judgment Day
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: on Sunday night, and I'm there for and I'm sure
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: I'll be the the one representative of the overnight watch.
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: I don't know anybody else canna watch that, but I'll
• 17:42

  Speaker 1: monating live from the pot as we hit an audio
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: jackpot from the Fox Sports Radio Studios, as approved by
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: our friends Kathy and Madison and Ruth in La. They

  Speaker 1: are big fans of this show. They listen every night
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: dedicated p ones to this show. We thank them for
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: that and this portion of the Ben Malor Show made
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: possible in part by ty I Rack. For over forty years,
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: Tyrak has been helping customers find the right tires for how,
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: what and where they drive. Ship fast and free back

  Speaker 1: by free road hazard protection, that's right for a dog,
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: with convenient installation options like mobile tire installation, tire rack
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: dot Com, The Way Tire Buying Show B. So our
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: lead this hour is from football. We'll get to the
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: brew haha in La La Land, the Dodgers and Padres
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: having the managers go at it. We'll get to that
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: coming up in the B block, but we'll begin this
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: hour with football. Why that pays the bills around here.
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: We're going to start out in Baltimore, where roughly a
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: month from now, training camp opens up. Oh always sounds good,
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: generally speaking. Generally speaking, the only thing that is regularly
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: accomplished in training camp is two or three starting players
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: going snap crackle pop and having season ending injuries. The band, though,
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: is starting to warm up for the poets. And if
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: you didn't see this because you were not paying attention,
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: bad job by you. Perhaps you missed it. But the
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: Ravens wide receiver, Rashad Bateman, he is a spicy margarita.
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: This guy saying that Lamar Jackson looks quote locked in,
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: claiming the rest of the NFL is quote in trouble
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: in twenty twenty five. O MG, that's for shod Bateman.
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: So let us discuss the question, are you buying the
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson hype from Rashad Bateman or is this just
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: the standard pre camp jaw jacking that takes place pretty
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: much every year. So my observations on this, I've got
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: jim Nance, Universal Pictures and Greyhound Bus, and we will
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: combine all of these things together and we are going
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: to cut out the wisdom teeth is what we're going
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: to do, and then we're going to enjoy the OUI
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: gue goodness of a freshly baked cinnamon roll. So we're
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: gonna do all that. So number W I said, number
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: all right, So I give this a yawn and then
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: I give it a shoulder shrug. I'm literally doing it.
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: You can't see it because of the radio. And here's why.
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: All right, if you look at your smartphone, the calendar
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: on your smartphone, it is June. Now we're getting to
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: the later part of June. And I file this particular
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: story where again the receiver Rashod Bateman talking very spicy,
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: saying Lamar Jackson locked in and claimed the NFL is
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: in trouble. In twenty twenty five, I filed this one
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: as a Jim Nance story. Now what does that mean?
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: Jim Nance who carries a photo of burnt toast in
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: his wallet? Jim Nance when he does the Masters, what
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: is his catchphrase? A tradition unlike any other. And that's
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: what this is. It's not a golf tournament, but it
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: is a tradition unlike any other. This is a classic
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: teammate upsell. That's what you know. Shad Bateman has a
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: vested interest here. He's got a little skin in the game.
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: He's trying to get in good with his quarterback, Lamar Jackson,
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: guessing he thinks he'll get targeted more this year. It's
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: like going in and having a meeting with your boss
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: and just putting sugar all over your boss, right, smartest
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: guy in the room, and man, you're such a great boss.
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: That's self interest. You're looking out for yourself. You're trying
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: to advance your situation. Now, I'm not going to sit
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: here and say that players don't look great in shorts,
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: wearing helmets and all that when they have their offseason practices.
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: And I'm imagining I've never been to the passing drills
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: in Owing's mills, but I'm imagining they're really good and
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: just wonderful at the Ravens facility. I believe that's where
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: it is, and that's great. And then that leads to
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: you planning a parade route, getting your map out and trying, well,
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: where's the parade route gonna be? Where we stop at
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: the Ray Lewis statue to try to find the white suit?
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: Where's the white suit?
• 23:12
  Speaker 3: Ray?
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: I don't know anyway, Now, Lamar, I'm not I'm not
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: gonna say he's not gonna be dangerus. Of course he'll
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: be dangerous. He's a multi time MVP. He could have,
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: would have, should have maybe could have didn't win the
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: MVP last year. Josh Allen did so for Lamar Jackson,
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: He'll be good. It doesn't matter though. Lamar is now
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: at the point in his story. If you look at
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: the novel of Lamar Jackson, we've now reached the part
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: of his book where the regular season is all but
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: a relevant. It just is he's been that good. So
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: where the rubber meets the road is in the playoffs.
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: And we have seen this story before. We've seen it
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: time and again. It's always this is gonna be the
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: year for Lamar. And then you know, you wake up
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: and nothing. Wake me up in February when Lamar is
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: getting ready to travel to play in northern California in
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: the twenty twenty six Super Bowl, and he's not sending
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: out comments on social media about being disrespected or this,
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: that or the other, then okay, we got some now
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: page two, So this story. I avoided this story. A
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: couple of our friends in Ohio, in the greater Cleveland area,
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: we're upset, and they said, what didn't you talk about this?
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: You always take shots at the Cleveland Browns. Why didn't
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: you do this story? What's wrong with you? Did you
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: not see it? You took a couple of days off
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: and you didn't see it, didn't you. I saw it, moron.
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: I just thought it was no big deal. But I
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: will do the story now because there's more to the story.
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: So it's not about Brown's rookie quarterback, Schadur Sanders, the
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: net Bo kid from Dion Sanders family tree, Jadeur Sanders,
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: twenty three years old and ticketed for speeding. Now, we
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: knew about the one the other day, but now we've
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: learned the rest of the story. As the Great Paul
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: Harvey would say back in his day, speeding twice just
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: this month around Ohio. There was also a speeding violation
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: in Colorado. Sanders was accused of driving his Dodge TRX
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: pickup one hundred and one miles per hour on a
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: suburban Cleveland interstate That happened a few days ago, and
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: Sanders apparently could pay a fine of two hundred and
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: fifty dollars. And it's a misdemeanor. It's a fourth degree. Mister, mean,
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: I've gotten speeding tickets. Has anyone done a monologue about that? Yeah?
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: I got one in Minnesota my way to the Malamegrie. Anyway,
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: the reason I'm bringing ended up now as reference this
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: is not the first time. This is not the first
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: time that yourder Sanders has stepped in it with the
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: Ohio State Patrol. You see back on June fifth in
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: Brunswick Hills, Ohio, sand was pulled over in a sixty
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: five mile an hour zone going ninety one. So he's
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: got a lead foot. Now. The thing that's interesting is
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: he failed to appear for an arrangement for that ticket,
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: and I guess that was on Monday. And he always
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: like two hundred and seventy dollars on that one in
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: court costs, which is just a tax for the court
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: to make more money, according to the Madona Municipal Court
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: records and art. So this led to our colleague Colin
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: Cowherd essentially saying, because Chudeur Sanders drives fast, he's done
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: with him as the play. That's what he implied. Now,
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: I was sleeping while Cowhard's on, but I did see
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: the quotes going around. So let's address the kmodo dragon
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: in the room. Brown's quarterback, Chaudur Sanders picking up not one,
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: but two speeding tickets in twelve days. How significant is this?
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: So it is a story as old as time. I
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: am not as worked up into a lad as Colin
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: Coward if that makes for bad radio, I apologize in advance,
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: but it is as story as old as time. Young guy, fastcar,
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: and that's the recipe for trouble with a capital T
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: room room, room vroom. Now snurseanders again, twenty three year
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: old guy. He's living the universal life, Universal pictures, life,
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: fast and the Furious nine, channeling his Interven Diesel. Right.
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: I caught speeding not once, but twice in twelve days.
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: And this is always my thing. I've gotten a few
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: speeding tickets over the years. I don't know if you
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: like me, but in my life, when I've gotten a
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: speeding ticket, for the next like two months, I go
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: below the speed limit. I go below the speed limit
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: for like two months because I'm so paranoid. I once
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: got pulled over. I was leaving a Bills game years ago,
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: and I was I went to the Bills game with
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: the great Steve Stillwell, who's now a professor. He used
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: to work at Fox Sports Radio, and my younger brother Mike.
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: So we were at a Bill's game and they were
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: playing the Tennessee Titans. So I'm leaving the stadium there
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: and got pulled over on the New York Expressway. I
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: forget how fast I was going, but I was trying
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: to get out of Buffalo, and so I got pulled over.
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: And then so I then got back on the road.
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: I took the guy said, well, I can't print the ticket,
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: but we're gonna send it to you, and you're out
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: of state, so whatever. So I got back on the road,
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: and about ten minutes later, I look behind me and
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: I see cherry tops. I'm getting pulled over again, and
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: I looked, I'm going to speed limit. I was like
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: screaming at my brother. I said, what is this cop doing.
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: I'm going the damn speed limit. I've made sure not that.
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: Sony of the guy pulls me over in the same
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: exact cop. He must have gone ninety miles an hour
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: to catch me down the expressway and he pulls me over.
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: He's all excited, Well, good news, I was able to
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: print up the ticket. Yeah, great, thank you. So technically
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: I got pulled over twice in the span of about
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: half an hour, probably less than that, probably less than that. Anyway,
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: back to the point here, So Shandur Sanders does he
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: have entitlement? Of course, all these guys who are entitled,
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: these star players and all that but I'm gonna save
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: my faux outrage for things that you really need to
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: get worked up into a lather over, and not not this. Now.
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: If he'd been driving drunk and that would have been
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: a different story, I can't put up with that. But
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: if you're just speeding and you're not intoxicated and all that,
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: I don't get get worked up, because I think pretty
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: much everyone does that. Now I've been pretty lucky. I'll
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: probably get a ticket later today. But I did get
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: a message from a cop one time that said that
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: it's not everyone speeds. At least in LA everyone speeds,
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: And the cop told me, listen, I mean, it's essentially
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: said fish in a barrel. So as long as you're
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: like seventy nine and under, I'm not gonna waste mo
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: time because there's people that are going eighty five ninety
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: ninety five. Those are the people I'm gonna give tickets to,
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: because that's a bigger ticket. So he gave me the
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: whole rap. And since then, the only place I've gotten
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: a ticket is in Minnesota, and I've been to a
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: bunch of other states, have been all over the place
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: since then, but the only place I got a ticket
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: was Minnesota, and it was like a like a nineteen
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: year old cop gave me a ticket. Hey, final point
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: to Cannsa City, the home of the Ben Mallard chicken
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: fingers at the Landing in Liberty, Missouri, the holy land
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: of the chicken Fingers, where many great pe ones have
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: gone and watched sports and enjoyed lots of alcohol and
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: chicken fingers and lived the life of Riley so Kansas City.
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: Andy Reid Big Red said that despite some reports of
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: a diminished role, Andy Reid fully expects Travis Kelsey's snap
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: count with the Chiefs to be quote similar to what
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: it was last year. But Andy Reid said he will
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: monitor Kelsey's playing time as training camp, as training camp
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: goes forward and season progresses, and change the plan if necessary.
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: Close quote so Andy Reid saying the Chiefs plan to
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: use Travis kelcey early and often, early and often in
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: twenty twenty five. Is that alright with you? So I'll
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: go for thousand percent. Now, keep in mind, coaches will
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: lie to your face, and Andy Reid's been a coach
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: pretty much my entire adult life, so he knows the game.
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: He's not if they're planning on downsizing Kelsey. He's not
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: going to tell you that. But last season Kelsey was
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: on the field for the third highest snap count. He
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: ran the fourth most roots or routes of his career
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: last year, and you gotta think because of his status,
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: the Chiefs cannot cannot not play Kelsey. See a large amount. Right,
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: He's hanging out with the most famous woman in America,
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: if not the world, in Taylor Swift. So it's kind
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: of a big deal. And I'm pretty sure Taylor Swift
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: is not looking to date a scrub or a guy
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: who's out there as a decoy. So you've got that,
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: and the mantra should be you keep going until the
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: wheels on the greyhound bus come off, till the wheels
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: on the greyhound bus come off, and then that's it.
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: And in last year at Kelsey, certainly in the Super Bowl,
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: Travis Kelsey was a doctor. He was doctor Doolittle and
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: ultimately he will be judged much like we talked about
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: minutes ago Lamar Jackson and what happens at the end.
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: And the Chiefs are also at that level where they
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: are expected to win the final game and if not,
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: and if you end up sucking at the very end,
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: and you stumble and fall down before you cross the
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: finish line. That is how people will remember you. Not
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: really that hard. We're not talking about open heart surgery.
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: We're just talking about sports, and that's it.
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Meller
• 33:10
  Speaker 2: Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific.
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: Here we go. Here it's mallar. How about that to
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: the third degree, This is one big event.
• 33:22
  Speaker 2: Gets grilled.
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: Coo oh loop justin.
• 33:27
  Speaker 5: Former Raiders wide receiver Henry Ruggs spoke at a Hope
• 33:31
  Speaker 5: for Prisoner's event where he revealed that he would quote
• 33:34
  Speaker 5: love to try and play in the NFL again. He's
• 33:37
  Speaker 5: eligible for parole next year. Ben, do you think he
• 33:39
  Speaker 5: could make it back to the league.
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: So, first of all, I hope he doesn't make it back.
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: I said he wouldn't ever play again. We did a
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: monologue about this when he went to jail, and I said,
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: I don't now. I realize though, that the NFL is
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: a bloodthirsty league, and the mantra across the league is
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: to never give up on talent. You never give up
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: on talent. If there was ever a case of giving
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: up on talent, this would be it. I'm not saying
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: that he can't get out of jail and go out
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: and get a job somewhere and live a life and all.
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: I just think the NFL, like, what are you doing
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: with that? But I am reminded of a guy that
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: has worked at our place and for the NFL draft.
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: We've had him in here a couple of times, the
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: former GM of the Cardinals, and he talked about if
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: the NFL. He was talking about the NFL draft and
• 34:33
  Speaker 1: he said like, hey, you know, if this guy was
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: really really fast, like if Hannibal Elector I think he
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: used the player said that if Hannibal Lecter was up
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: for the NFL draft and he ran a four point
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: three or something like that, we probably diagnosed it as
• 34:51
