- 3:12Speaker 2: playing things and all that, and I just I can't
- 3:15Speaker 2: get into it. I can't. I want to watch that
- 3:18Speaker 2: as much as I want to watch that. What's that
- 3:20Speaker 2: made up in season cup thing of a jig that
- 3:23Speaker 2: the NBA came up. I just I'm not I'm not there.
- 3:26Speaker 2: I'm not there, just not into it, not into it.
- 3:29Speaker 2: But what I am into is the tournament and that'll
- 3:31Speaker 2: be beginning later on. And if you haven't filled out
- 3:34Speaker 2: your bracket yet, go to Fox Sports Radio dot com.
- 3:38Speaker 2: I made sure to fill out my bracket so my
- 3:40Speaker 2: bosses don't get upset with me, and I think, yeah,
- 3:43Speaker 2: I did my bracket so I will not get the
- 3:45Speaker 2: nasty email. Hey schmuck, Hey, schmuck boy, why didn't you
- 3:48Speaker 2: fill out your brain? Well, I've filled out my bracket, boss,
- 3:50Speaker 2: so you'll call me a schmuck boy.
- 3:52Speaker 1: There you go.
- 3:52Speaker 2: Our lead this hour is from the negotiating table. I
- 3:57Speaker 2: thought this was interesting. Oh yeah, it's my I've editorial control.
- 3:59Speaker 2: I can decide what I want to talk about. So
- 4:01Speaker 2: I don't know if you heard this or not. Maybe
- 4:03Speaker 2: not that we've learned the NFL is laying the groundwork
- 4:08Speaker 2: for replacement officials. Now I know we're sitting here in March,
- 4:12Speaker 2: and we've got months and months to go, and all
- 4:14Speaker 2: this stuff that the NFL is preparing under the guys
- 4:19Speaker 2: that they will be unable to agree to a new
- 4:22Speaker 2: contract with the NFL Referees Association, And so the NFL
- 4:27Speaker 2: is scouring trying to find a bunch of small college officials.
- 4:31Speaker 2: We're talking like junior college, low level football people. They're
- 4:36Speaker 2: going over one story said one hundred and fifty about
- 4:39Speaker 2: one hundred.
- 4:39Speaker 1: And fifty low level officials.
- 4:42Speaker 2: And they're going to contact them and say, hey, would
- 4:46Speaker 2: you like to be an NFL official, And we have
- 4:48Speaker 2: something for you in April, and there's a clinic there
- 4:52Speaker 2: in May, and outside of an agreement and doesn't look
- 4:57Speaker 2: like they're close to any kind of agreement with the referees,
- 5:00Speaker 2: this would continue. They would train during the summer and
- 5:04Speaker 2: make visits to different NFL teams training camps before the
- 5:07Speaker 2: regular season begins, and so this tossed out into the
- 5:14Speaker 2: air everywhere. So it's a good jumping off with let
- 5:16Speaker 2: us discuss the question what message, what message is the
- 5:21Speaker 2: NFL sending by leaking obviously came from the NFL, not
- 5:25Speaker 2: the referee Association. What message is the NFL sending by
- 5:29Speaker 2: leaking that they are preparing for scab officials? So my
- 5:36Speaker 2: thoughts on this, I've got Mexican drug Lord, MX, black
- 5:40Speaker 2: Card and fruit of the loom, and we will combine
- 5:44Speaker 2: all of these things together and we are going to
- 5:48Speaker 2: come to blows.
- 5:49Speaker 1: But not a body blow. No body blow, no, no,
- 5:52Speaker 1: no a.
- 5:54Speaker 2: This was clearly leaked strategically to the preferred ed NFL
- 6:00Speaker 2: insider crowd, handed.
- 6:02Speaker 1: Down like the soup of the day.
- 6:05Speaker 2: And I love the fact that the NFL is calling
- 6:08Speaker 2: these guys who are officials in the backwoods and saying.
- 6:12Speaker 1: Hey, how would you like to be an NFL referee?
- 6:15Speaker 2: These guys probably think they're getting punked like they're getting
- 6:18Speaker 2: calls these small town referees out in the boondocks, and
- 6:22Speaker 2: the this is this is joe blow from the NFL.
- 6:27Speaker 2: How would you like to be a referee. But I
- 6:28Speaker 2: don't know that I want to be a referee. I
- 6:30Speaker 2: don't know what I want to be a referee. But
- 6:32Speaker 2: this is it's obviously the leverage, right, It's pure uncut leverage.
- 6:36Speaker 2: The message is take our deal or the NFL said
- 6:41Speaker 2: either take the deal or we're going to uber in
- 6:44Speaker 2: some fresh herd of zebras and we'll just toss them
- 6:47Speaker 2: out there and no one will know the thing about
- 6:49Speaker 2: this which stands out the NFL at this point, with
- 6:52Speaker 2: all of the different TV deals, the NFL has all
- 6:55Speaker 2: of that. The NFL has become like a Mexican drug lord.
- 6:59Speaker 2: They have so much money they don't know what to
- 7:02Speaker 2: do with it, Like they're burying it.
- 7:03Speaker 1: I think the Jacksonville just buried some money because they
- 7:05Speaker 1: didn't know what to do with it. I bury some money.
- 7:08Speaker 2: And yet on this one they're like, well, we're going
- 7:11Speaker 2: to draw a wine in the sand here and that's it.
- 7:14Speaker 2: We're not going to pay the money. We're not going
- 7:16Speaker 2: to give the referees the rays that they want. He said,
- 7:18Speaker 2: well why not? And the only reason I could come
- 7:21Speaker 2: up for that that popped in mid is because they
- 7:24Speaker 2: don't have to.
- 7:26Speaker 1: That's it.
- 7:26Speaker 2: That perception is reality, and the perception is that the
- 7:31Speaker 2: NFL officials are a bunch of dingleberries and they don't
- 7:35Speaker 2: know what they're doing their Mama Luke's And so the
- 7:38Speaker 2: NFL owners know that, and now they're weaponizing this. They
- 7:43Speaker 2: know that the rank and file, the customers, better known
- 7:48Speaker 2: by their gangster named fans, are not going to defend
- 7:52Speaker 2: the referees. Right generally speaking, the referee is just following
- 7:59Speaker 2: what Park Avenue tells them to do. Right, So I'm
- 8:02Speaker 2: all going to decide this week we're gonna call holding.
- 8:04Speaker 2: Next week we're not gonna call holding, and we'll call
- 8:07Speaker 2: something else. And so therefore you are easily replaced and
- 8:12Speaker 2: easily blamed in the blame game, your disposable labor with whistles.
- 8:18Speaker 2: And this is not about improving officiating and not worried
- 8:22Speaker 2: about that and not they like having They like having
- 8:26Speaker 2: imperfection because it's good for business, it's good for conversation,
- 8:31Speaker 2: and it just is and it doesn't really affect all
- 8:34Speaker 2: that much in the end. So why pay extra for
- 8:38Speaker 2: competence if you think you're just gonna get more incompetence.
- 8:41Speaker 2: So it's like, why why would we pay more? You know,
- 8:43Speaker 2: I just get on the soapbox and say, well, don't not.
- 8:45Speaker 2: If we pay you this much or that much, you
- 8:46Speaker 2: still suck.
- 8:47Speaker 1: All right.
- 8:48Speaker 2: Now, turn the page to the rules of the game.
- 8:50Speaker 2: You know we love the rules of the game. Yes, absolutely,
- 8:54Speaker 2: So I read that the Cleveland Browns. That's a I
- 8:58Speaker 2: think that's something you put in a toilet a couple
- 9:00Speaker 2: of times a day and you flush it. Either that
- 9:02Speaker 2: or it's a football team. So the Browns have submitted
- 9:05Speaker 2: a rule. There's sounded the Browns right there at work.
- 9:10Speaker 2: So the brown submitted a rule that would allow teams
- 9:12Speaker 2: to trade draft picks five years out. Currently, you are
- 9:16Speaker 2: only allowed to trade draft picks three years out, and
- 9:20Speaker 2: under this plan, it would be five years. So you'd
- 9:22Speaker 2: add a couple of extra years to unload draft picks
- 9:26Speaker 2: now immediately. Immediately, the theory was, well, the Browns want
- 9:31Speaker 2: this because they're preparing to trade Miles Garrett and they
- 9:34Speaker 2: want to get more picks, and so they'd like to
- 9:37Speaker 2: get picks down the road, and so they'll just whistle
- 9:39Speaker 2: into the dark there and try to get those extra picks,
- 9:41Speaker 2: and they'll change the rule and then they'll be good
- 9:43Speaker 2: to go and all that all right, So the question
- 9:47Speaker 2: extending the window for NFL teams trading picks to five
- 9:52Speaker 2: years out, do you love it or list it?
- 9:56Speaker 1: You love it or listen? So I love it? I
- 9:58Speaker 1: love it.
- 9:58Speaker 2: This is the NFL g giving the front offices, the gms,
- 10:02Speaker 2: the nerds, all of them an Amex black card with
- 10:07Speaker 2: no limit and no billing address. It enables larger, blockbuster trades.
- 10:13Speaker 2: It should enable bigger trades.
- 10:15Speaker 1: In the NFL.
- 10:16Speaker 2: If you're a team that's on the brink of winning
- 10:19Speaker 2: and you're in that contender, you're a top contender.
- 10:23Speaker 1: You're not the champ.
- 10:24Speaker 2: You're not to champ your top contender for a Super Bowl.
- 10:27Speaker 2: This would allow you a little more room to aggressively
- 10:31Speaker 2: go out and get that star receiver that you gotta
- 10:34Speaker 2: get at that defensive end that you need to have
- 10:36Speaker 2: to complete the thing. And it would increase not only
- 10:41Speaker 2: mid season trades, but also off season trades. And that's exciting.
- 10:45Speaker 2: Who doesn't like a good trade, a nice, juicy trade.
- 10:49Speaker 1: I don't know anyone that doesn't.
- 10:50Speaker 2: Maybe closer to what the NBA, the NBA has a
- 10:52Speaker 2: lot of trades, you have not as many as they
- 10:54Speaker 2: used to because they they fetched around with a salary cap.
- 10:58Speaker 2: We can rhapsodize about that if you want, and so
- 11:00Speaker 2: there's less ways to move players, but there's still a lot.
- 11:04Speaker 1: Of trades compared to football. Now.
- 11:07Speaker 2: The counter argument, the counter argument for this is that,
- 11:11Speaker 2: oh no.
- 11:12Speaker 1: It's you've got to protect the dummies.
- 11:14Speaker 2: Is essentially the counter argument that teams would over extend
- 11:18Speaker 2: and they would trade away all their draft picks and
- 11:21Speaker 2: they would lock themselves in to the dungeon. They'd be
- 11:25Speaker 2: in the dungeon. They'd have no chance. They wouldn't even
- 11:29Speaker 2: be mediocre. They'd be irrelevant. That would be that. And
- 11:31Speaker 2: they it's just, oh my god, it's so sad, what
- 11:35Speaker 2: a sob story. And to that, I say, I don't care.
- 11:40Speaker 2: Expose them sugarness. All right, draft picks that far out
- 11:45Speaker 2: are much more risky, have five years out. And I
- 11:50Speaker 2: mentioned that the front offices will have essentially the MX black.
- 11:54Speaker 1: Card and no limit. And the reason I'm the limit.
- 11:57Speaker 2: Is because most of these guys don't last. These drabbronis
- 12:00Speaker 2: do not last five years out, like most of there's
- 12:04Speaker 2: so much turnover in the NFL. If you're a coach
- 12:06Speaker 2: or a general manager who cares if you trade draft
- 12:09Speaker 2: picks years down the line, you're not going to be there.
- 12:12Speaker 2: And if they work out, well, you will be there.
- 12:14Speaker 2: But if it doesn't work out, you just go somewhere else.
- 12:17Speaker 1: That's it.
- 12:18Speaker 2: And it's all trades anywhere. Speculative draft pick is more speculative.
- 12:23Speaker 2: You don't know you can trade. You know, I pick
- 12:25Speaker 2: five years out right now, Seattle. You know they got
- 12:28Speaker 2: some help from the referees to get that two point conversion.
- 12:30Speaker 1: That was a bogus call.
- 12:32Speaker 2: And so five years out from now they're the Super
- 12:34Speaker 2: Bowl champs. You think they're gonna be good five years
- 12:36Speaker 2: and they could go four and thirteen five years from now,
- 12:40Speaker 2: who knows. You could stink out loud. The weather changes fast.
- 12:45Speaker 2: It does change fast, and you're just spitballing, and that's it.
- 12:49Speaker 4: You know.
- 12:50Speaker 2: You think you can smell trouble, you know, not necessarily.
- 12:54Speaker 2: Some of these teams that are good, all of a
- 12:56Speaker 2: sudden they sink without a trace.
- 12:58Speaker 1: Where'd they go? I don't know? All right?
- 13:01Speaker 2: Now, last word, we go to Chicago. We have learned
- 13:04Speaker 2: this is quite the tail. So the Bears quarterback Caleb
- 13:09Speaker 2: Williams is very very busy here with his lawyers and
- 13:15Speaker 2: I'm not going to do a joke about him getting
- 13:17Speaker 2: a manny in a petty I'm not doing that. There's
- 13:19Speaker 2: a classy show. I'm not going to make a fingernail
- 13:21Speaker 2: polish joke. Caleb Williams has applied for multiple trademark protections
- 13:27Speaker 2: on the term Iceman. Yeah, he wants to be known
- 13:31Speaker 2: as the the Iceman. Now, some who clearly have knee
- 13:36Speaker 2: pads on are comparing the image of Caleb Williams throwing
- 13:41Speaker 2: that touchdown past against the Green Bay Packers and the
- 13:43Speaker 2: playoffs to.
- 13:44Speaker 1: The Michael Jordan jumpman logo. This is a big thing.
- 13:50Speaker 2: It's this big thing, and very excited, very very excited
- 13:54Speaker 2: about that. So the question bears quarterback Caleb Williams looking
- 14:01Speaker 2: to monetize the Iceman nickname. How would a cynic interpret
- 14:07Speaker 2: this moment? Well, I'm glad you've asked that question, and
- 14:12Speaker 2: I just asked it to myself because as a cynic,
- 14:14Speaker 2: I will tell you. Has anyone contacted George Gervin, the
- 14:18Speaker 2: original Iceman NBA player? No?
- 14:21Speaker 1: All right, but you gotta be joking.
- 14:23Speaker 2: This guy's out here, Caleb Williams building a brand, building
- 14:27Speaker 2: a brand, and like he's some kind of overnight legend,
- 14:32Speaker 2: overnight legend, and.
- 14:36Speaker 1: He hasn't won.
- 14:38Speaker 2: Doesn't that normally there's like a chain of events that
- 14:41Speaker 2: have to take place there. It's connect the dots and
- 14:44Speaker 2: there's some dots that are missing. It's embarrassing you don't
- 14:47Speaker 2: nickname yourself the iceman, you know, and really lean into it.
- 14:51Speaker 2: That's earned right now, Caleb Williams more like lukewarm tapwater man,
- 14:57Speaker 2: and he's trying to trademark everything from.
- 15:00Speaker 1: The story that I read it. You're talking about.
- 15:02Speaker 2: Shirts, mugs, backpacks, trying to figure out what's next. He
- 15:07Speaker 2: could make a deal with Fruit of the Loom and
- 15:09Speaker 2: have Iceman under Rus for the kiddos who throw interceptions
- 15:13Speaker 2: on the playground at Recess they can they could have
- 15:16Speaker 2: that the fo of Loom Iceman under Rus would be big.
- 15:20Speaker 2: And yeah, this is this is what happens when the hype,
- 15:24Speaker 2: when the hype goes unchecked. And I bring this term
- 15:28Speaker 2: up from time to time, the man who shot Liberty balance.
- 15:30Speaker 2: When the legend becomes the fact, you go with the legend,
- 15:33Speaker 2: and the legend is that Caleb Williams is one of
- 15:35Speaker 2: the all time great big game quarterbacks and that he
- 15:39Speaker 2: cemented himself with the Chicago Bears in those two playoff
- 15:42Speaker 2: games this year. The reality is that in those two
- 15:45Speaker 2: games he played mostly as a fraud in the playoffs.
- 15:49Speaker 2: Unpopular opinion, but that's reality. And he said, oh, but
- 15:54Speaker 2: what about the comeback Okay, all right, yeah, yeah, what
- 15:57Speaker 2: about the overall product? He had more picks than touchdowns.
- 16:01Speaker 2: The rating was in the gutter. He was actually worse
- 16:04Speaker 2: in the playoffs than Sexy rexi Rex Grossman from back.
- 16:08Speaker 1: In the day.
- 16:09Speaker 2: And now we know he's Michael Jordan because he he
- 16:13Speaker 2: had that comeback pass against the Green Bay Packers. To me,
- 16:17Speaker 2: that was more about green Bay choky than it was
- 16:19Speaker 2: about the Bears doing anything magical. But then after that
- 16:23Speaker 2: went out had another stinker. You all told me, every
- 16:27Speaker 2: one of you told me. He said, listen, the Bears
- 16:30Speaker 2: are winning that game. They're at home, They're winning that
- 16:33Speaker 2: game against a soft West Coast Dome team, and Matthew
- 16:39Speaker 2: Stafford outdoor Chicago.
- 16:42Speaker 1: Yeah, how'd that work out? Yeah? Not not so good.
- 16:46Speaker 2: And just just let's calm down a little bit with
- 16:49Speaker 2: the the MJ conversation with Caleb Williams. As will Smith
- 16:54Speaker 2: said years ago at the Academy Awards. Keep Michael Jordan
- 16:59Speaker 2: name out of your ef and mouth when you're talking
- 17:02Speaker 2: about Caleb Williams is blasphemy. This whole thing is just
- 17:06Speaker 2: classic narcissism, is pure ego. And you just start winning
- 17:11Speaker 2: super Bowls and chick out even one, you know, start
- 17:14Speaker 2: printing the merch and that will be prolonged agony for
- 17:18Speaker 2: guys like me.
- 17:18Speaker 1: But do it right now.
- 17:21Speaker 2: I've got two games as a playoff quarterback and not
- 17:25Speaker 2: looking so good. Not It's a roller coaster for sure.
- 17:30Speaker 2: The overall performance not great.
- 17:32Speaker 1: So my god.

- 18:54Speaker 2: for it. The city's that bad, that terrible. We'll try
- 18:58Speaker 2: to get to the bottom of this we have. We're
- 19:00Speaker 2: actually on in this city, so maybe somebody there listening

- 20:46Speaker 2: Ice right. Signed Playoff P, The Great Playoff P Femi
- 20:50Speaker 2: says ben NFL referees want to raise I thought people
- 20:54Speaker 2: only got raises with good job performance.
- 20:58Speaker 1: All right, let's see here.
- 21:01Speaker 2: Uh no, well, it depends what what business you're in
- 21:05Speaker 2: forem me. You know, I mean, I'm in a business
- 21:08Speaker 2: that doesn't give raisis. But a lot of businesses do
- 21:10Speaker 2: give They do give ray lot a lot of people
- 21:12Speaker 2: get rasis. You know, it depends what you're doing. It
- 21:16Speaker 2: depends how generous the companies. But the NFL has the money.
- 21:19Speaker 2: It's like, that's my point. My point is the NFL
- 21:21Speaker 2: has the money to pay the referees, they just choose
- 21:24Speaker 2: not to. Mister nice guy says he claims that Ozzy
- 21:29Speaker 2: Guy slipped a bad word in on the show last night.
- 21:33Speaker 1: And that's not true, mister nice guy. That's just you
- 21:35Speaker 1: hearing a bad word.
- 21:37Speaker 2: We are professionals, would not allow a bad word to
- 21:39Speaker 2: get through at all. And what the reason that mister
- 21:43Speaker 2: nice guy thinks that was a bad word, because because Osi,
- 21:47Speaker 2: it's not Ozzy Guy, it's Ozzie Momentum. Get the name right,
- 21:50Speaker 2: Ozzie Momentum. He spoke Australian. And so you, mister nice guy,
- 21:56Speaker 2: you you know, another fat happy American. You don't understand Australian.
- 22:01Speaker 2: You don't understand the native tongue. And we understand the
- 22:03Speaker 2: native tongue of Australian. We do, we understand it.
- 22:06Speaker 1: Not a burcriminated exactly.
- 22:08Speaker 2: Not a burner, writes In, says Popeye's buddy Jay Wellington.
- 22:12Speaker 2: Wimpy loves the idea of being able to trade for
- 22:15Speaker 2: a yummy item now and pay the price years down
- 22:19Speaker 2: the road. No, now that's not a dated reference. And listen,
- 22:24Speaker 2: I do the same thing. Not a burner, And I
- 22:26Speaker 2: quote Popeye the sailor Man. Yeah, I don't know that
- 22:30Speaker 2: I've gone whimpy, though, I don't know that I've used
- 22:32Speaker 2: that truck stop Fungus writes In, says, I'm all for it.
- 22:37Speaker 2: Never know who might be drafting that far out. It's
- 22:40Speaker 2: a lottery ticket.
- 22:41Speaker 1: There you go. Jeff writes in, and I love Jeff.
- 22:45Speaker 2: I always know who Jeff is because he's got the
- 22:47Speaker 2: worst possible avatar where you can only kind of see
- 22:50Speaker 2: like part of his face and it's you know, it's
- 22:53Speaker 2: it's just his nose and his eyes. The Pride of Waterloo,
- 22:58Speaker 2: Iowa Trucker, Jeff, I love that. Don't change that you know,
- 23:01Speaker 2: you should make that your thing, and it is. Jeff says,
- 23:05Speaker 2: I think I'm right, unless I'm not. Ninety six percent
- 23:07Speaker 2: of calls by NFL referees are wrong. So bring on
- 23:11Speaker 2: the amateur guys and the gals bring them in. Yeah, well,
- 23:18Speaker 2: I know there was one call in Seattle that was
- 23:20Speaker 2: definitely wrong.
- 23:21Speaker 1: I know that.
- 23:22Speaker 2: And yeah, this kind of looked the other way on
- 23:24Speaker 2: that one, right, JJ and Rinton and No. Strit denis
- 23:28Speaker 2: exactly Wayne in Duluth writes in he said he rolled
- 23:32Speaker 2: up a fatty firing up some MLB on the PlayStation
- 23:37Speaker 2: while he's got the show on. Well, what a perfect night,
- 23:40Speaker 2: an absolute perfect night, spots Weed on the Oregon Trail
- 23:43Speaker 2: rights and he says, it is finally warm and dry
- 23:46Speaker 2: enough that I can listen to the Ben Maler show
- 23:49Speaker 2: outside on my deck and not in my garage. And
- 23:53Speaker 2: look at that he's got. That's the perfect set up there.
- 23:56Speaker 2: These boys are prepared for the show. People talk about tailgating,
- 24:00Speaker 2: going to an NFL game, and tailgating and going to
- 24:02Speaker 2: college football game in Telgate.
- 24:04Speaker 1: No, the Overnight show.
- 24:05Speaker 2: You got Wayne over there, he's rolling up a fat
- 24:08Speaker 2: he playing video games.
- 24:10Speaker 1: You got spocks weed.
- 24:11Speaker 2: He's got a thing of beer, he's got a cigarette lighter,
- 24:14Speaker 2: he's got a pack of SIGs and an ash tray
- 24:17Speaker 2: and his phone.
- 24:19Speaker 1: That's perfect.
- 24:20Speaker 2: I mean, this is the preparation that goes into this
- 24:24Speaker 2: is next level, absolute, next level preparation.
- 24:28Speaker 1: That's the way to do it.
- 24:30Speaker 2: Eh. George writes in George George, he says, I wonder
- 24:35Speaker 2: how Chuck Ladell is going to feel about Caleb Straemark.
- 24:37Speaker 1: Well, yeah, of course there's another one, Chuck Ladell.
- 24:40Speaker 2: George gervin Basketball Player, Let's see. Shane in des Moines
- 24:45Speaker 2: writes and says, Ben, I agree with you on the
- 24:48Speaker 2: World Baseball Classic and Major League Baseball All Star Games
- 24:52Speaker 2: occurring when they do. I haven't talked since pre All
- 24:57Speaker 2: Star Game, so so he says. Alf also says, who
- 25:03Speaker 2: are the people who give raises out? I don't know,
- 25:05Speaker 2: but find out alf use Ai and find out the
- 25:10Speaker 2: companies that actually give raises to their employees.
- 25:12Speaker 1: I would like to know the.
- 25:13Speaker 2: Name the NFL does, because they're forced to with the players,
- 25:18Speaker 2: and like I said, they've got the money. They have
- 25:21Speaker 2: the funny money. Whether they want to spend it or not,
- 25:23Speaker 2: that is up to them, and they clearly do not
- 25:26Speaker 2: want to spend it on this. Let's go to the
- 25:28Speaker 2: phones and let's see on my board is almost filled
- 25:33Speaker 2: with blind people. But let's go to one of the
- 25:34Speaker 2: people that isn't blind. Andre in the Commonwealth, who is
- 25:39Speaker 2: up next?
- 25:39Speaker 1: Hello? Andre, Welcome Andre, Andre, Andre, Ben.
- 25:45Speaker 2: How are you?
- 25:46Speaker 4: It's good to be checking in with the with the
- 25:48Speaker 4: mal or militia and you know, to to chat with
- 25:51Speaker 4: you for for a few Listen, Ben, what is this
- 25:55Speaker 4: slight animist that I'm anticipating I'm feeling towards these draft picks.
- 26:01Speaker 4: I know that they're speculative, Ben, but but the draft
- 26:03Speaker 4: picks of the future. Okay, we can't just be discarding them,
- 26:06Speaker 4: trading them away, you know for the hot free agent
- 26:09Speaker 4: of the moment. How did that work out in the NBA.
- 26:12Speaker 1: Well, it's worked out. It's worked out great. It's worked
- 26:14Speaker 1: out great for.
- 26:14Speaker 2: The la Rams who have been have had I think
- 26:17Speaker 2: one first round draft pick the last ten years or
- 26:19Speaker 2: something like that, and then they're in the playoffs pretty
- 26:22Speaker 2: much every year. They've been to multiple Super Bowls, they
- 26:24Speaker 2: won a Super Bowl. It's worked out pretty well for them.
- 26:28Speaker 4: That's why nobody knows exactly how much Sean mcvain makes
- 26:31Speaker 4: based on his deal with the Rams, because he's a
- 26:34Speaker 4: guy that can get in and develop these young players.
- 26:37Speaker 4: And Bill, we've forgotten about Aaron Donald. My point exactly.
- 26:40Speaker 4: Not every team is coached by Sean McVay, Okay, and
- 26:44Speaker 4: now everybody has somebody that's going to develop it. And
- 26:46Speaker 4: then secondly, right we look at New England, Bill Belichick,
- 26:50Speaker 4: you know the guru. I'm not gonna pay the guys
- 26:52Speaker 4: the money because I'm gonna go ahead and get the
- 26:55Speaker 4: next guy and develop him, and so I don't have
- 26:57Speaker 4: to pay the guy that's right here. Well, that works
- 26:59Speaker 4: out all well and good when you have Tom Brady
- 27:01Speaker 4: as your quarterback. But what happened after Tom Brady took
- 27:04Speaker 4: his talent down to Florida? Okay, I'm gonna say South Beach,
- 27:09Speaker 4: but no, he is you know what I'm saying. He
- 27:10Speaker 4: took that talent to Tampa Bay, Right, Bill Belichick not
- 27:13Speaker 4: hitting on these draft picks, and it's all down It's
- 27:17Speaker 4: all downhill from there, okay. Point of fact being, I
- 27:20Speaker 4: just feel if you have the right people in place,
- 27:23Speaker 4: I e and I'm using a basketball repords. No, it's
- 27:25Speaker 4: football conversation. If you've got to Sam Presty that's operating
- 27:30Speaker 4: your chess board, those draft picks and playing chess to
- 27:33Speaker 4: other people's checkers, well that's all.
- 27:35Speaker 2: That's all great. The reason the thunder are good is
- 27:37Speaker 2: not because of any draft picks. It's because they happen
- 27:39Speaker 2: to get from the Clippers. Shade Jogis Alexander. That's why
- 27:43Speaker 2: they're good. They didn't draft him. That you're making my
- 27:46Speaker 2: point for me. They didn't even draft the guy that's
- 27:48Speaker 2: the face of the franchise in Oklahoma City. That's not
- 27:51Speaker 2: even one of their picks. They traded for him. They
- 27:54Speaker 2: got him from another team. That's my point, listen, that
- 27:58Speaker 2: we gotta get rid of this this loser I call
- 28:01Speaker 2: a loser mindset that reg to the draft. It's all
- 28:04Speaker 2: about the draft, the draft, the draft. To shut the
- 28:06Speaker 2: draft up. You tuck us enough with the draft. There
- 28:09Speaker 2: are other ways. My point is, there are other ways
- 28:12Speaker 2: to do it. Andre, And you know this idea trade
- 28:16Speaker 2: the pics. If you're that confident, if you have a
- 28:19Speaker 2: chance to go for.
- 28:20Speaker 1: It, you go for it and you don't worry.
- 28:23Speaker 2: About you figured out you can find diamonds in the rough.
- 28:27Speaker 2: You don't have to have first round draft picks. You
- 28:30Speaker 2: can get good players all over the place. And it's
- 28:33Speaker 2: is it harder. I don't know if it's harder. It's different,
- 28:36Speaker 2: and people are afraid of different. They want to go
- 28:38Speaker 2: with the same exact thing because this is how it's
- 28:40Speaker 2: always been done.
- 28:42Speaker 1: And I say screw that. Andre's what I say.
- 28:45Speaker 7: Ben.
- 28:45Speaker 4: Even though you're a good cook and a good baker,
- 28:47Speaker 4: and you make cookies and you have everything ready to
- 28:49Speaker 4: go over at the studio, you can do all those things.
- 28:52Speaker 4: Oklahoma City they did draft hut Home grins.
- 28:54Speaker 1: They did, oh stop chet Home is not that good.
- 28:58Speaker 1: The guys skeletor stop with Chatholt, please come on?
- 29:02Speaker 4: So they have they had, so they put on some
- 29:04Speaker 4: draft pick and then Sam Presty, he's sitting on twenty more.
- 29:06Speaker 4: I know you've got a bunch of great calls behind Ben,
- 29:09Speaker 4: thanks so much for taking the call. I know the
- 29:11Speaker 4: great dayship, but I don't be checking in what.
- 29:13Speaker 7: I see him.
- 29:14Speaker 2: It's Andre Andre Andre Andre, big fan of Oklahoma City
- 29:20Speaker 2: and don't get many calls.
- 29:22Speaker 1: Guy.
- 29:23Speaker 2: I know Kyrie listens to the podcast. I don't think
- 29:26Speaker 2: he listens. Live in Oklahoma City and he's emailed the
- 29:31Speaker 2: Weekend podcast, the Fifth Hour podcast a few times.
- 29:34Speaker 1: He's done that, and it's great when he when he does.
- 29:37Speaker 2: I just I don't get many people wanting to talk
- 29:40Speaker 2: about the Oklahoma City Thunder, the reigning champions, the reigning
- 29:44Speaker 2: champions of the NBA, and just not too much.
- 29:48Speaker 1: Let's go to Blind Sea Bass. Who's next?
- 29:51Speaker 2: Hello, Blind Sea Bass in, how you doing, my brother?
- 29:57Speaker 1: It's been a while, mister Sea Bass. It's been a while.

- 30:02Speaker 7: catch for you in on you know, your Christmas break,

- 30:11Speaker 7: second to last year. I'll be graduating next spring, not
- 30:16Speaker 7: this spring, but next spring.

- 30:20Speaker 2: next spring next time.
- 30:21Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 30:21Speaker 1: Absolutely.
- 30:23Speaker 7: You were talking about, you know, people getting raises. Before
- 30:26Speaker 7: I lost my vision, I was actually in the United Association,
- 30:29Speaker 7: which is a union, and they have those built into
- 30:32Speaker 7: the contracts. You get a percentage every year with the CBA,
- 30:36Speaker 7: and as an apprentice, you got two raises a year.
- 30:40Speaker 7: You're yearly raising in whatever percentage of what the journeyman made.
- 30:44Speaker 7: But dude, my Commodorees got severely screwed in March Madness.
- 30:50Speaker 7: They should have at least been a four seed. But
- 30:54Speaker 7: I don't know what the committee was thinking with this
- 30:58Speaker 7: when they placed them as a five.
- 31:00Speaker 1: Come on, don't who cares about that? Blind? Just go
- 31:04Speaker 1: out win the games.
- 31:05Speaker 2: Just go win the I don't want to hear all
- 31:07Speaker 2: the seating. Oh my god, just go win the games.
- 31:11Speaker 2: That's such a losers.
- 31:12Speaker 1: What are you doing?
- 31:14Speaker 2: Come on, Blind Sea Bass? What's wrong with you? You know,
- 31:18Speaker 2: sit there and bitch about the seating?
- 31:19Speaker 1: Who cares? Just beat it.
- 31:20Speaker 2: You're gonna have to beat good teams to get to
- 31:24Speaker 2: the final four, So just go and beat them.
- 31:26Speaker 7: Oh yeah, I mean, you know, I mean, I'm just
- 31:28Speaker 7: saying I think. I mean, I think we can. You know,
- 31:31Speaker 7: I mean we beat Florida in the tournament, you know,
- 31:34Speaker 7: chuck the Arkansas game that was a lot closer than
- 31:37Speaker 7: the score actually, uh and then the score represented everything.
- 31:44Speaker 7: But no, yeah, I got it. I got any going
- 31:46Speaker 7: at least to the the Elite eight before they get
- 31:49Speaker 7: put out.
- 31:50Speaker 2: Now do you have your do you have your Vandy
- 31:52Speaker 2: T shirt on? Or do you have the hoodie?
- 31:56Speaker 7: I've got my hoodie, T shirt, sweatpants, and and my hat.
- 32:01Speaker 2: Get the whole going off full fan uniform fully.
- 32:06Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 32:07Speaker 7: Yeah. And then with me at uh it's kind of
- 32:10Speaker 7: a weird too, with me being at Western Kentucky University. Yeah,
- 32:14Speaker 7: they're a smaller school.
- 32:15Speaker 1: But the Hilltoppers, the Hilltop Hilltoppers. I have a hat.
- 32:20Speaker 1: I have I have a somewhere in my hat collection. Here.
- 32:23Speaker 1: One of the listeners there sent me a Hilltoppers hat.
- 32:27Speaker 1: I have a It's very unique.
- 32:29Speaker 2: You don't see that a lot of places outside of
- 32:31Speaker 2: Western Kentucky.
- 32:33Speaker 7: So let's see, here's the ironic thing about this. So
- 32:36Speaker 7: is it's actually in south central Kentucky.
- 32:41Speaker 2: Is that like northern northern or no? Is it Southern
- 32:44Speaker 2: Floridas in northern in Tampa?
- 32:46Speaker 1: Is that it? We're one of the Florida one of
- 32:48Speaker 1: the Florida. I forget which one, but one of.
- 32:50Speaker 2: The schools is in Tampa. But it's supposed to be
- 32:53Speaker 2: in the south, and it's all messed up.
- 32:55Speaker 7: So yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 32:58Speaker 2: South South Florida is in Tampa, but it's supposed to
- 33:02Speaker 2: think South Florida.
- 33:03Speaker 1: You think, you know, yeah, something like that. Yeah.
- 33:06Speaker 2: Anyway, all right, Sea Basketball call it well, all you
- 33:09Speaker 2: have something else to say, You're not done?

- 34:20Speaker 2: Draymon Green is asking the NBA to allow the Memphis
- 34:24Speaker 2: Grizzlies to leave Memphis and relocate to Nashville. Draymond apparently
- 34:30Speaker 2: not a fan of the scene in Memphis. We have
- 34:33Speaker 2: to get Big Daddy on here at some point to
- 34:35Speaker 2: give us a report on whether it's as bad as
- 34:38Speaker 2: Traymond seems to think it is. He says, now, obviously
- 34:40Speaker 2: this is content creation by Draymond Green of the Golden
- 34:44Speaker 2: State Warriors. But he's like, hey, listen, it's just a
- 34:46Speaker 2: wave the relocation fee and have the Grizzlies relocate to Nashville.
- 34:49Speaker 2: Apparently Draymond likes s Nashville. He's more into the vibe
- 34:53Speaker 2: in Nashville than he is in Memphis and doesn't like
- 34:57Speaker 2: the whole Memphis vibe.
- 34:59Speaker 1: I don't know what I had a bad incident there.
- 35:00Speaker 1: I have no idea. I know what happened to Draymond
- 35:02Speaker 1: in Memphis. Time now for the who am I? Game?
- 35:05Speaker 2: And you can answer this on X at Ben Mahler.
- 35:08Speaker 2: That's at Ben Mallard. It's the who am I?
