Speaker 1: week of the Ben Maler Shows. We are howling into
1:15
Speaker 1: the Abyss coast, the coast, border to border and beyond
1:21
Speaker 1: on the vast hey famously powerful microphones of FSR. We're
1:27
Speaker 1: just your friendly neighborhood radio station and monating live live
1:34
Speaker 1: from the room the classroom. We're always learning new things,
1:39
Speaker 1: unless we're not. Garon teed Human from the world famous
1:45
Speaker 1: Fox Sports radio studios were Mikey the Insomniac in Tampa
1:50
Speaker 1: and Cashless Clay the Sandsman remind us this hour made
1:53
Speaker 1: possible in part by our friends at ti Iraq. For
1:57
Speaker 1: over forty years, ty Iraq has been helping customers like
2:01
Speaker 1: Alf the Alien opinter Fergdog and Malarprop Guy find the
2:05
Speaker 1: right tires for how, what and where they drive. Ship
2:09
Speaker 1: fast and free, backed by free road hazard protection which

2:18
Speaker 1: so does j dot there in Utah, with convenient installation
2:22
Speaker 1: options like mobile tire Installation, tire act dot Com the
2:26
Speaker 1: way tire buying should be. And we are back in
2:33
Speaker 1: the saddle again. Back in the saddle again after a
2:36
Speaker 1: full week, and we really leave the saddle. The audio
2:39
Speaker 1: sweatshop does not stop. We had a full weekend of
2:42
Speaker 1: the Fifth Hour podcast, which you can still go back
2:45
Speaker 1: and listen to, but not now because we're doing the
2:47
Speaker 1: live show, so don't do it now. Because we're doing
2:49
Speaker 1: the live show. But when those boring daytime shows are on,
2:51
Speaker 1: you can put on the Fifth Hour podcast and enjoy that.
2:54
Speaker 1: So I lead this hour though from the World Cup
2:58
Speaker 1: for the final time, or will it be for the
3:00
Speaker 1: final time? As this was the last dance on Sunday
3:07
Speaker 1: with smoke in the air everywhere? Did you watch? It
3:12
Speaker 1: was on Fox, you were supposed to watch. You did
3:14
Speaker 1: not watch? All right? Perhaps not well? Spain and Argentina,
3:20
Speaker 1: and if you like goosegs, there was a lot of that,
3:23
Speaker 1: a lot of that, not a lot going on, not
3:25
Speaker 1: a lot going A lot of Cardio, a lot of
3:28
Speaker 1: rich people paying a lot of money to watch cardio.
3:31
Speaker 1: That's what that was. And in the end, though, all
3:35
Speaker 1: that takes is won, and that's good because that's all
3:38
Speaker 1: that Spain got. Spain defeats the defending champion, Argentina won
3:43
Speaker 1: nothing in extra time at the twenty twenty six FIFA
3:50
Speaker 1: World Cup there in Jersey, and they capture their second
3:54
Speaker 1: World Cup title, the first. I mean long wait twenty ten.
3:57
Speaker 1: That's a long time ago, sixteen years ago. So Spain
4:01
Speaker 1: is your winner. Some named someone named Faran Torres scored
4:06
Speaker 1: the lone goal in the one hundred and six minute.
4:10
Speaker 1: That means, if my computer like brand is right, they
4:12
Speaker 1: played one hundred and five minutes with no goals. And
4:16
Speaker 1: this guy Torres got a loose ball in the penalty area.
4:22
Speaker 1: And this was shortly after Argentina was down to ten
4:27
Speaker 1: men on the field. They're supposed to have eleven if
4:28
Speaker 1: you're not a soccer person, they had ten. That was
4:31
Speaker 1: because of penalty and that is a good jumping off point.
4:35
Speaker 1: Let us discuss this was a lop sided game, and
4:39
Speaker 1: you don't have to be mister soccer guy to know
4:41
Speaker 1: it was a lopsided game. So the question did Argentina
4:46
Speaker 1: look and play just tired or did Spain make them
4:50
Speaker 1: look and play tired in this finale at the World Cup.
4:53
Speaker 1: So I've got former FSR boardop Roberto Flores, wizards and
4:59
Speaker 1: fuzzy dice, and we will combine all of those things
5:04
Speaker 1: together and we were going to make a Spanish omelet
5:07
Speaker 1: and some churos is what we're going to have. We're
5:10
Speaker 1: gonna make that meal. So a to answer the question,
5:13
Speaker 1: after eight minutes long Mallard deliberation, we have determined that
5:19
Speaker 1: Argentina didn't just look tired. I didn't play tired They
5:23
Speaker 1: looked like they were auditioning to be the new pitchmen
5:26
Speaker 1: for sleep numbers mattresses, like they were gonna come out
5:30
Speaker 1: to some commercials and say, oh, here's our sizzle reel.
5:32
Speaker 1: Oh really, well, you do look tired. You definitely looked tired. There.
5:36
Speaker 1: They needed a nap and a juice box and no excuses. Pathetic.
5:42
Speaker 1: I saw the conspiracy was I saw this online somewhere
5:45
Speaker 1: said Argentina had played all games either in climate controlled
5:50
Speaker 1: venues or at night and they never had to deal
5:53
Speaker 1: with the elements, and like that was a thing. I
5:56
Speaker 1: don't buy that either. But Spain played very well well
6:00
Speaker 1: by my account. It was only one nothing, so it's
6:02
Speaker 1: not like they it wasn't seven to zero or something
6:06
Speaker 1: like that. But it was kind of like they were
6:07
Speaker 1: hosting a fashion show and Argentina was the runway, and
6:13
Speaker 1: that's kind of how that went down there. As the
6:15
Speaker 1: Spaniards were strutting around on the catwalk and do a
6:19
Speaker 1: little pirouette on the catwalk, and then Argentina committing what
6:25
Speaker 1: amounts to cardio malpractice, if you will. It looked like
6:29
Speaker 1: they needed oxygen. But they were playing in New Jersey.
6:32
Speaker 1: It's sea level sea level conditions, not exactly somewhere you
6:37
Speaker 1: need the oxygen tanks. They're not a not a great
6:42
Speaker 1: look there. How bad was it was so bad? It
6:45
Speaker 1: was so bad that Argentina, we believe, they hired former
6:49
Speaker 1: Fox Sports radio board o Erberto Flores and park the bus.
6:53
Speaker 1: You see, he's a bus driven. So this is I
6:55
Speaker 1: hear this term. I don't hear this term elsewhere, but
6:57
Speaker 1: in soccer park, the bus where you just play not
7:00
Speaker 1: to lose, the soccer equivalent of the prevent defense there,
7:05
Speaker 1: and that's what happened. Spain dominated and I think the
7:08
Speaker 1: final was twenty to two. In shots, it was like
7:11
Speaker 1: twenty to one, just tons of opportunities, not tons of
7:17
Speaker 1: opportunities because a lot of those shots were reckless, but
7:20
Speaker 1: they still count. And twenty to two I think was
7:23
Speaker 1: the final total there. And the keeper, the keeper Emiliano
7:29
Speaker 1: Martinez there, Emiliano Martinez rather he got the big play here.
7:36
Speaker 1: He kept them alive. Argentina lot twelve saves. And the
7:41
Speaker 1: war of attrition, the war of attrition always had War
7:44
Speaker 1: of attrition. I tournament play, all these games, all this stuff,
7:46
Speaker 1: but the game flipped on a penalty which was called
7:52
Speaker 1: late red card violation. Enzo, bad job by you, Enzo Fernandez.
7:59
Speaker 1: I don't know who that is, but he's guy that
8:00
Speaker 1: committed the penalty there. And did he deserve to get slammed?
8:05
Speaker 1: Obviously we're not Argentina Soccer officionados, but did this guy
8:09
Speaker 1: deserve to get slammed? Absolutely? Now, this was what's known
8:13
Speaker 1: as an Emmy winning performance. When I say Emmy winning,
8:19
Speaker 1: I mean mental error, which means it was avoidable, foolish
8:24
Speaker 1: and unnecessary. The final body blow, body blow, body blow,
8:29
Speaker 1: and so either way, listen, in Spain, as little as
8:32
Speaker 1: I watched soccer, which is pretty much just the World Cup,
8:34
Speaker 1: they deserve to win. The team that deserves to win
8:37
Speaker 1: doesn't always win conceding one goal. The math on this
8:42
Speaker 1: is crazy. Here one goal in eight matches the defense
8:45
Speaker 1: for Spain. Historically it was like a medieval fortress for
8:50
Speaker 1: these Spaniards in the World Cup. There, thirty eight match
8:53
Speaker 1: unbeaten streak. I believe I read that somewhere that seems
8:55
Speaker 1: like a lot. That seems like a lot, thirty eight.
8:59
Speaker 1: So that's where we are right now. The other part
9:01
Speaker 1: of this page two here as we continue our in
9:04
Speaker 1: depth team coverage as it's all over. We will not
9:07
Speaker 1: be promoting the Fox World Cup coverage because there is
9:11
Speaker 1: no more Fox World Cup coverage because that was the
9:14
Speaker 1: final game. We will not be telling you to build
9:17
Speaker 1: it like Beckham because that was the final game. Now.
9:21
Speaker 1: The defeat likely also markie the last stanza for Lionel Messi,
9:28
Speaker 1: as that's it. He will be decommissioned from World Cup duties.
9:33
Speaker 1: His final World Cup appearance. You do the math on
9:35
Speaker 1: that this thing's played every handful of years. He's thirty
9:38
Speaker 1: nine now, and usually the sign and you don't have
9:42
Speaker 1: to be mister soccer to know the sign that you're
9:45
Speaker 1: in the final chapter of your career is when you're
9:47
Speaker 1: playing in the MLS. That's the old cushy retirement plan.
9:51
Speaker 1: That's the four to oh one k go play in
9:54
Speaker 1: America when you're washed up. And Messi's like, okay, I'm in,
9:59
Speaker 1: I'll go to my Miami and hangout. Why not, you
10:02
Speaker 1: dummies will buy the tickets and you will, and you did,
10:05
Speaker 1: and you are so thirty nine years old and a
10:09
Speaker 1: puddle of tears as he left the field. They're very emotional,
10:13
Speaker 1: very emotional Messi as Spain denies Argentina and Messi an
10:18
Speaker 1: opportunity for back to back World Cup titles. As Messi,
10:23
Speaker 1: that was the goal. Everyone had the goal. I would
10:25
Speaker 1: think that played Argentina to stop Messi, but nobody, nobody
10:29
Speaker 1: was able to pull it off quite like the Spaniards
10:32
Speaker 1: did defensively in this game, as Messi was about as
10:36
Speaker 1: effective as you were, and I was out there all right.
10:39
Speaker 1: The question does this loss actually his final loss for
10:44
Speaker 1: Argentina and for Messi? Does this dent Leonel Messi and
10:48
Speaker 1: the legacy of Lionel Messi there? Or is this argument
10:52
Speaker 1: completely ridiculous? It's like, what are you doing? So? Look,
10:57
Speaker 1: it would be much better talk radio to say, sit
11:00
Speaker 1: here behind the microphones of Fox Sports Radio and Rant
11:03
Speaker 1: and Rave and do some global soccer thing about oh,
11:05
Speaker 1: this is the end, he's done and this ruins everything
11:09
Speaker 1: and all that. However, that would be performative nonsense, and
11:15
Speaker 1: we don't need that. We have plenty of outrageous things
11:18
Speaker 1: to say here. We don't need to jump on that
11:19
Speaker 1: particular bandwagon there. But claiming that this loss, which was
11:24
Speaker 1: not very competitive, but this loss dense the legacy of Messi,
11:30
Speaker 1: it's kind of like saying, well, Michael Jordan's not the
11:33
Speaker 1: greatest of all time because he played for the Wizards.
11:35
Speaker 1: Or if Lebron James signs with Golden State this week
11:38
Speaker 1: and doesn't win anything because he won't, we can then
11:41
Speaker 1: sit there and say, well, see it ruined his whole
11:43
Speaker 1: legacy because he went to Golden State, right, are you
11:45
Speaker 1: going to the Lakers? He didn't win with the Lakers either,
11:47
Speaker 1: that that ruined his legacy, Lebron, And it's kind of
11:49
Speaker 1: a silly argument. It's like, again, Jordan at the end
11:53
Speaker 1: of his career with the Wizards was productive but not great,
11:56
Speaker 1: and you just try to block that out. So Messi's
12:00
Speaker 1: legacy took a hit the same way a pillow. A
12:05
Speaker 1: pillow takes a hit when you punch it, absolutely nothing happens.
12:10
Speaker 1: It's like a skyscraper, a giant tall one hundred story
12:15
Speaker 1: actually like one hundred and fifteen one hundred and twenty
12:18
Speaker 1: story skyscraper, and then there's a little chipped brick on
12:25
Speaker 1: the one hundred and twelfth floor of that skyscraper. So okay,
12:29
Speaker 1: that doesn't take away from the entire skyscraper. So at
12:33
Speaker 1: thirty nine and dragging Argentina, which had some Abrika Dabor
12:39
Speaker 1: type wins in this World Cup to the third World
12:43
Speaker 1: Cup final, and what do you have? Eight goals I
12:46
Speaker 1: believe Messi had in this thing, and so there it is.
12:50
Speaker 1: And the soccer historians, which are very annoying people, they
12:55
Speaker 1: will point out that Pele missed his final at the
12:59
Speaker 1: World Cup that was back in the day, and Maridonna
13:02
Speaker 1: lost one that was in the early nineties, and nobody,
13:08
Speaker 1: nobody erased the career legacy because of that. That did
13:14
Speaker 1: not happen. So Messi already got the proverbial monkey off
13:18
Speaker 1: the back in twenty twenty two. I remember having conversations
13:21
Speaker 1: about that years ago and the whole goat status and
13:25
Speaker 1: all that stuff. So one late career loss does and
13:30
Speaker 1: also down to ten men does not change that. Now
13:34
Speaker 1: I can go do the retirement thing, go to the
13:37
Speaker 1: convalescent home, which is the MLS, and enjoy yourself. And
13:41
Speaker 1: his legacy doesn't just survive the NL Messi. It walks
13:46
Speaker 1: out of the stadium, puffing on a cigar, checking its
13:50
Speaker 1: nails and just going to Miami to get some sun.
13:54
Speaker 1: All right, Now, last word to the story within the story,
13:59
Speaker 1: the story within the story, and that would be the
14:03
Speaker 1: first ever we knew this was happening. But the first
14:06
Speaker 1: ever super Bowl style World Cup halftime show at the
14:11
Speaker 1: finale of the World Cup, and this sparked a title
14:16
Speaker 1: wave of backlash towards FIFA, many of our brothers and
14:22
Speaker 1: sisters who were global soccer fans, arguing that it interrupted
14:27
Speaker 1: the flow of the sport. It made it feel overly americanized.
14:32
Speaker 1: I love that it was too americanized, and that's that's
14:35
Speaker 1: the problem. There, they had a star studded lineup. They
14:40
Speaker 1: brought in Madonna, Yeah, Madonna. They found Madonna. The Beabs
14:46
Speaker 1: popped up there. My buddy me and Beebes had a
14:48
Speaker 1: moment at a Laker game years ago. There was Biber.
14:52
Speaker 1: The Korean boy band BTS made an appearance because you
14:56
Speaker 1: know I love my Korean boy bands. You had Shakira,
15:00
Speaker 1: burn a boy. I can go on on here. It
15:02
Speaker 1: was all curated by Chris Martin of Coldplay as part
15:07
Speaker 1: of the new Entertainment initiative from FIFA that's brand new now.
15:14
Speaker 1: The musical performances lasted about eleven minutes. Listen lasted about
15:20
Speaker 1: eleven minutes. However, the total halftime went on and on
15:23
Speaker 1: and on twenty seven minutes. Because you see that stage
15:27
Speaker 1: doesn't just pop up on its own. You don't bring
15:30
Speaker 1: in a bunch of drones and AI and have the stage.
15:34
Speaker 1: It takes time. You gotta set that bad boy up,
15:36
Speaker 1: you gotta tear that stage down. And so usually at
15:40
Speaker 1: halftime its fifteen minutes, I guess is the norm. That's
15:43
Speaker 1: the standard at these football games. Fifteen minutes. So this
15:48
Speaker 1: obviously not that. I love the comment from former England
15:53
Speaker 1: captain Wayne Rooney, who had one of the great lines
15:57
Speaker 1: when asked about this on BBC's Coup He said, what
16:01
Speaker 1: do you think you get this halftime thing? I'm paraphrasing
16:04
Speaker 1: obviously some of this and he gave one word. One word,
16:08
Speaker 1: Wayne Rooney, you describe the halftime performance of Madonna and
16:12
Speaker 1: the Beebes. That would be crap with a capital C.
16:17
Speaker 1: Crap with a capital C. All right, question, where do
16:21
Speaker 1: you fall on the World Cup adding a halftime show
16:24
Speaker 1: to a championship game for the first time ever? Do
16:27
Speaker 1: you love it or do you list it? Love it
16:30
Speaker 1: or list it? So we're gonna we're gonna list this.
16:35
Speaker 1: I'm not a halftime guy. I'm not. Oh, you're a
16:38
Speaker 1: bad American. You're supposed to love halftime you know, I
16:40
Speaker 1: do it. Halftime, I take a dump and I get food.
16:43
Speaker 1: That's what I do at halftime. All right, who watches
16:47
Speaker 1: this crap? I don't, And in the blink of an eye,
16:51
Speaker 1: I do agree. Soccer is becoming very americanized. This World Cup.
16:57
Speaker 1: You talk about putting that American stamp, that Robert stamp
17:00
Speaker 1: up on it right there. Traditions now, they have not
17:03
Speaker 1: died at the World Cup. They have not These soccer
17:06
Speaker 1: traditions have not died. They have just been monetized, which
17:10
Speaker 1: is the American way. That's what you do. You monetize things.
17:12
Speaker 1: We now have commercial breaks, Crowbard in camouflaged as hydration breaks.
17:17
Speaker 1: We now had have Madonna halftime show. He doesn't get
17:20
Speaker 1: any more American than Madonna at halftime and the Beabs
17:25
Speaker 1: sixty seven year old Madonna up there shaking her ass
17:28
Speaker 1: right there on stage. Epic and just a tremendous And
17:32
Speaker 1: the Bieber, the Bieber guy who always looks like he's
17:35
Speaker 1: he's disheveled and a little late for some kind of
17:39
Speaker 1: zoom meeting that he was supposed to be on. He
17:41
Speaker 1: didn't show up to it. It was like, okay, they might
17:42
Speaker 1: don't know what happened. Should have been there didn't happen.
17:46
Speaker 1: So it's just a little sampler plate cultural sampler plate
17:51
Speaker 1: of America. You had the legacy act Madonna, you had
17:54
Speaker 1: the pop star who's kind of become a legacy act
17:56
Speaker 1: in Bieber, and there's vague. Now I love the vague
18:01
Speaker 1: charity tie in. So when asked about the blowback, the
18:06
Speaker 1: people at FIFA were getting a lot of crap for
18:08
Speaker 1: this because the world's like, wait a minute, dude, what
18:10
Speaker 1: are you doing here. You're not supposed to put these
18:12
Speaker 1: little halftime shows, like you're not the NFL, what are
18:15
Speaker 1: you doing? So when asked about the blowback, the people
18:19
Speaker 1: at FIFA played the classic kid shield pr force field.
18:25
Speaker 1: It's for education, it's for the children, And you can
18:29
Speaker 1: literally do anything if you say it's for the children
18:33
Speaker 1: or out of an abundance of caution. Now. I learned
18:35
Speaker 1: that last part out of an abundance of caution during
18:38
Speaker 1: the pandemic a few years ago, when there were some
18:40
Speaker 1: really crazy things that they were having idiots do, and
18:43
Speaker 1: it was because in abundance of caution. Well, this is
18:45
Speaker 1: for the kids, for the kill dread for the child. Dad, Yeah,
18:50
Speaker 1: you can't criticize that. You can't come on You can't
18:55
Speaker 1: criticize it's it's to help the kids out in education
18:58
Speaker 1: without sounding like you hate puppies and you hate literacy
19:02
Speaker 1: and rainbows and lollipops and all that. They played the
19:06
Speaker 1: kid card FIFA from the bottom of the deck. They
19:09
Speaker 1: did regardless, you just have to do the old duck test.
19:15
Speaker 1: If it looks and sounds like an entertainment spectacle, it's
19:20
Speaker 1: an entertainment speculator's spectacular. Let's not pretend it's something else.
19:24
Speaker 1: The World Cup Final. It does not need American entertainment
19:31
Speaker 1: industrial complex interference, all right. They don't need that duct
19:35
Speaker 1: tape to their forehead and all that. It's just there
19:39
Speaker 1: for the game and that's it and you don't need this,
19:42
Speaker 1: that and the other thing. Was it a big inconvenience? No,
19:45
Speaker 1: because I didn't watch it. I watched clips of it online,
19:49
Speaker 1: but I was busy, Like I said, that's where you
19:51
Speaker 1: go to the powder room and you get some more snacks,
19:54
Speaker 1: and that's how you do it. It is the Banmailor show.
19:58
Speaker 1: And we're gonna open same here we go, Geronimo. If
20:02

34:18
Speaker 5: have called. Recently BUT i was also thinking About Danny,
34:21
Speaker 5: DeVito the trash, man AND i was, thinking, man it
34:27

34:32

34:44
Speaker 5: lives the nurses and everybody like.
34:46
Speaker 1: That what do you, Think, well picking up trash is very.
34:51
Speaker 1: IMPORTANT i would argue, though that if you're a trash,
34:53
Speaker 1: person you likely don't want to pick up a cake
34:56
Speaker 1: while you're on the trash. Truck you you know What i'm,
34:58
Speaker 1: saying because by the time you get, home it'll smell like,
35:01

35:05
Speaker 1: can send the cake into the trash depot and they
35:08
Speaker 1: can have it at the end of their, shift after
35:10
Speaker 1: they've covered themselves in a lather of. Soap you know
35:13
