- 0:08Speaker 2: on the Ben Malor Show. And we begin this hour
- 0:10Speaker 2: with a report saying that the reason that Pittsburgh traded
- 0:15Speaker 2: one of their star receivers is to accommodate their quarterbacks.
- 0:18Speaker 2: So thumbs up or thumbs down on the Steelers giving
- 0:22Speaker 2: up George Pickens to accommodate the wants and needs of
- 0:26Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers. Also former Packers defensive Backjaiyar Alexander joining the Ravens.
- 0:32Speaker 2: Will this be a bromance with Lamar Jackson or a
- 0:36Speaker 2: bust in Baltimore? And Jerry Jones is giving Cowboys cheerleaders
- 0:41Speaker 2: a four hundred increase in pay. What does this signify
- 0:47Speaker 2: to you? We'll talk about that as well.
- 0:49Speaker 1: Right now here, it is our number two. You did
- 0:56Speaker 1: it for who? What? What are you talking about?
- 0:59Speaker 3: Well?
- 1:00Speaker 2: Come, in the beginning of another hour of the Ben
- 1:05Speaker 2: Malar Show.
- 1:06Speaker 4: We are in the air everywhere on the River of
- 1:12Speaker 4: Life as we explore the hidden coast to coast border

- 2:00Speaker 1: Show to be.
- 2:02Speaker 2: So we're doing a call in radio show and I
- 2:03Speaker 2: think only one line is working.
- 2:07Speaker 1: Anyway.
- 2:08Speaker 2: Our lead this hour is from Pittsburgh, PA, the land
- 2:14Speaker 2: of the Insers. Now why are we starting here? I
- 2:16Speaker 2: thought this story was interesting. I have editorial control over
- 2:19Speaker 2: the show, so we'll start with this. A little nugget,
- 2:22Speaker 2: not a chicken nugget, just not a gold nugget, But
- 2:26Speaker 2: it was a nugget that made its way out on
- 2:28Speaker 2: the inspiration the motivation for the Steelers to trade wide
- 2:34Speaker 2: receiver George Pickens.
- 2:35Speaker 1: You might remember Pickens was unloaded to.
- 2:37Speaker 2: The Dallas Cowboys in a trade and they gave they
- 2:42Speaker 2: being the Steelers. They gave Pickens to Dallas for I
- 2:45Speaker 2: believe they got two safety pins and a handful of
- 2:50Speaker 2: pocket lint in that deal. That's what they got for
- 2:54Speaker 2: George Pickens. So if you didn't see the motivation, perhaps not.
- 2:57Speaker 2: I thought it was interesting. The Pittsburgh football team had
- 3:00Speaker 2: determined that it was a toxic situation. If Aaron Rodgers
- 3:05Speaker 2: were to play with George Pickens, they could not coexist.
- 3:09Speaker 2: They could not co mingle, said the aforementioned report. So
- 3:14Speaker 2: Rogers was not They knew that Rogers was coming to Pittsburgh,
- 3:17Speaker 2: even though it took months and months for it to
- 3:19Speaker 2: all be worked out. But Rogers was not going to
- 3:21Speaker 2: be able to deal with George Pickens and his interesting
- 3:26Speaker 2: perspective on football life.
- 3:28Speaker 1: So they said, all right, we gotta get rid of Pickens.
- 3:31Speaker 2: So Tomlin and on the other big shots there in
- 3:34Speaker 2: Pittsburgh unloaded Pickens in a proactive move to accommodate Aaron Rodgers,
- 3:42Speaker 2: the guy that hadn't agreed to the contract yet, at
- 3:45Speaker 2: least not as far as we know. He said, well,
- 3:47Speaker 2: I'm probably going to go there, but he hadn't agreed
- 3:49Speaker 2: to it. So let us discuss the question. Thumbs up
- 3:53Speaker 2: or thumbs down, thumbs up thumbs down on the Steelers trading,
- 3:58Speaker 2: George Pickens to a comm at eight Aaron Rodgers that
- 4:02Speaker 2: that's why they made the move. So on this one,
- 4:04Speaker 2: I've got DIY chicken soup and binge watching, and we
- 4:10Speaker 2: will combine all of these things together and we are
- 4:14Speaker 2: gonna make the gabba.
- 4:15Speaker 1: Ghoul is what we're gonna make.
- 4:17Speaker 2: So number wa, he said, number WA. I'm giving this
- 4:23Speaker 2: not a thumbs up or a thumbs down, a sideways thumb.
- 4:27Speaker 2: I'm giving this the old sideways thumb. And here's why,
- 4:30Speaker 2: I feel like it's part of the story, but not
- 4:33Speaker 2: the entire story. Here, George Pickens was already on thin ice.
- 4:38Speaker 2: Can we all agree on that? I think we can all.
- 4:39Speaker 2: You're nodding your head, yes we oh, yes. He was
- 4:42Speaker 2: at Loggerheads with Mike Tumman. We documented it behind the
- 4:46Speaker 2: Bully Pulpit here on FSR we documented there there were
- 4:50Speaker 2: some issues there. Mike Tomlin and Pickens were not seeing
- 4:53Speaker 2: eyed eye and all that stuff, and he had become
- 4:56Speaker 2: a walking, talking destruction for the Pittsburgh foot ball team. Immature,
- 5:01Speaker 2: the critics said, and was the stuff of locker room
- 5:05Speaker 2: legend locker room legend George Pickens, which is great talk radio.
- 5:10Speaker 2: As we have pointed out, the players that cause problems,
- 5:14Speaker 2: the players that have issues are good talk radio and
- 5:18Speaker 2: George Pickens. Was that a sideline out burst here that
- 5:21Speaker 2: gets you an entire monologue?
- 5:23Speaker 1: Right, that's good.
- 5:24Speaker 2: Half hearted blocking being called out by teammates. There's another monologue,
- 5:29Speaker 2: boom boom boom boom boom. Line them up, knock them down, right,
- 5:33Speaker 2: and the eye rolls from teammates. Bad body language on
- 5:38Speaker 2: the sidelines. There's another one in another one in another one.
- 5:43Speaker 2: And so the front office in Pittsburgh did not trust
- 5:48Speaker 2: George Pickens, that he was good as a wide receiver,
- 5:51Speaker 2: but not could enough and could not be trusted to
- 5:54Speaker 2: play nice in the sandbox. So rather than allow him
- 5:58Speaker 2: to be in the sandbox, they kicked his ass out
- 6:01Speaker 2: and send him the downs. And with DK Metcalf coming
- 6:04Speaker 2: in a similar type player as George Pickens, it didn't
- 6:09Speaker 2: make a lot of sense to keep them both around,
- 6:10Speaker 2: and so Pickens was expendable, and so they got rid
- 6:13Speaker 2: of him. The Aaron Rodgers wrinkle to the story here
- 6:18Speaker 2: that they used the Aaron Rodgers story of his addition
- 6:23Speaker 2: as the thing that lit the flame for the trade.
- 6:29Speaker 2: The Rogers was like a human shield if you will,
- 6:32Speaker 2: to cover for the trade. That's more of a it's
- 6:36Speaker 2: like a therapeutic cleansing. For Mike Tom it's a DIY project. Now,
- 6:41Speaker 2: normally they tell you that this is not a DIY project,
- 6:44Speaker 2: you don't do this yourself. But the Steelers decided to
- 6:47Speaker 2: do it themselves. When I say that, they said, we've
- 6:50Speaker 2: got to clean out the lead, the asbestis the carcinogens.
- 6:54Speaker 2: We've got to get rid of all of that in
- 6:56Speaker 2: the toxic mold in the attic.
- 6:58Speaker 1: Over the Steelers facility.
- 7:00Speaker 2: So they got rid of the lead, the asbestos, the carcinogens,
- 7:03Speaker 2: all of that, the toxic mold. Just one move done
- 7:06Speaker 2: and Rogers, of course, it would have been good for
- 7:09Speaker 2: our purposes if Pickens had stayed with the Steelers, because
- 7:13Speaker 2: that would have guaranteed Rogers, with some passive aggressive behavior,
- 7:19Speaker 2: would have eaten Pickens lunch, would have gone on, Joe
- 7:23Speaker 2: Rogan drink some ayahuasca and had a field day with Pickens.
- 7:28Speaker 2: And you look around this likely in his last year.
- 7:32Speaker 2: It logically makes no sense for the Steelers to get
- 7:36Speaker 2: rid of Pickens. If they're merely doing it for Aaron Rodgers,
- 7:41Speaker 2: because Rogers is gonna be in Pittsburgh for one year
- 7:43Speaker 2: and then some other washed up quarterback will come and
- 7:45Speaker 2: play for the Steelers next year.
- 7:46Speaker 1: It's revolving door.
- 7:48Speaker 2: So why would you get rid of a guy who's
- 7:50Speaker 2: good not great George Pickens? And why would you do that?
- 7:54Speaker 2: Why would you tailor the roster? Why would you tailor
- 7:57Speaker 2: the roster for Aaron Rodgers liking when he's only gonna
- 7:59Speaker 2: be either one year in May Sinse? All right, now
- 8:02Speaker 2: page two to Baltimore, we go the transaction wire lighting up.
- 8:09Speaker 1: There was actually that was a sound. It made NFL
- 8:12Speaker 1: tran Zack Shaddon very exciting.
- 8:14Speaker 2: So the former former Green Bay Packer defensive back Jaiyir
- 8:19Speaker 2: Alexander has a new home. He's becoming a poet, a
- 8:25Speaker 2: Baltimore poet better known as the Ravens the Dead Poet Society,
- 8:29Speaker 2: And so Jaire Alexander will join his old college buddy
- 8:35Speaker 2: Lamar Jackson with the Ravens. Will this be a bromance
- 8:40Speaker 2: or a bust in Baltimore for Jaiir Alexander. So after
- 8:45Speaker 2: a minutes long, minutes long, Mallard deliberation on Jaire Alexander.
- 8:50Speaker 2: We are going with option three. All of the above.
- 8:53Speaker 2: It will both be a bromance and it will be
- 8:55Speaker 2: a bust or go.
- 8:58Speaker 1: But Ravens aren't going to win the super Bowl. I'm
- 9:00Speaker 1: not going to get to the Super Bowl.
- 9:01Speaker 2: And Jayira Alexander is on the on the backside of
- 9:05Speaker 2: dominance in the NFL. However, however, that does not mean
- 9:10Speaker 2: that they will not be sweet nothings whispered between the
- 9:14Speaker 2: two teammates. They the old college buddies. This is being
- 9:17Speaker 2: built as the NFL's feel good buddy flick of twenty
- 9:20Speaker 2: twenty five. A couple old college pals reunited it and it
- 9:25Speaker 2: feels so good. A you know, tug at the heartstrings
- 9:29Speaker 2: type story, right, tug at the heart strings type story.
- 9:31Speaker 2: Disney like college pals get together to win a championship
- 9:36Speaker 2: in Baltimore and the confetti rains down and the crowd.
- 9:40Speaker 1: Goes wild and all that now.
- 9:42Speaker 2: Alexander Jahi Alexander at one point was an elite, elite
- 9:47Speaker 2: defensive back for the Green Bay football team.
- 9:49Speaker 1: He was and not anymore, but he was for a
- 9:53Speaker 1: couple of years there.
- 9:54Speaker 2: And now he got fired because the Packers asked him
- 9:57Speaker 2: to take a pay cut. He said, I ain't taking
- 9:59Speaker 2: a pay cut, so he ditched the frozen thunder, which
- 10:02Speaker 2: is not frozen this time of the year. He said
- 10:04Speaker 2: bye bye, and now the story is well. He turned
- 10:07Speaker 2: down more money. That's the report. Jaire Alexander turned out
- 10:11Speaker 2: more money to play with Lamar Jackson in Baltimore. However,
- 10:15Speaker 2: the chatter is the team that offered more money is
- 10:18Speaker 2: the Carolina Panthers, which are barely an NFL team, barely
- 10:22Speaker 2: an NFL team, and so he ends up getting a
- 10:25Speaker 2: one year contract, the former Green Bay Packer Jaire Alexander
- 10:30Speaker 2: one year contract six million to play alongside his old
- 10:33Speaker 2: Louisville palell Lamar Jackson. Of course, they won't be playing
- 10:37Speaker 2: at the same time because one plays defense, one plays offense,
- 10:40Speaker 2: Thus the conundrum. But you get the point, and so
- 10:43Speaker 2: this is being hyped up. I mentioned the Buddy Flick
- 10:47Speaker 2: chicken soup for the soul type story here. Unfortunately this
- 10:52Speaker 2: is not some rom com or anything like that, and
- 10:56Speaker 2: it's more like an episode of Seinfeld than you might remember.
- 10:58Speaker 2: The soup Nazi. No sooner for you, no chicken soup
- 11:02Speaker 2: for you. So it just doesn't pass the smell test. Again,
- 11:07Speaker 2: there will be the hey, we are buddy, buddy and
- 11:10Speaker 2: all that stuff, but it smells more like a risky gamble.
- 11:14Speaker 2: It's not risky in terms of the finances because it's
- 11:17Speaker 2: not a lot of money. It's a one year deal
- 11:19Speaker 2: for the Ravens and all that, but the idea that
- 11:22Speaker 2: this is the missing piece.
- 11:23Speaker 1: The Ravens already had a pretty good secondary.
- 11:25Speaker 2: Every year the Ravens have a good defense, and then
- 11:28Speaker 2: something just a little off, just a hair here, just
- 11:32Speaker 2: something just a little sideways, and it doesn't work right.
- 11:36Speaker 1: It doesn't work.
- 11:38Speaker 2: And so yeah, it's not a lot of money and all,
- 11:40Speaker 2: but it's a diminishing asset.
- 11:42Speaker 1: And here's why this guy was an elite player. Jay R.
- 11:46Speaker 2: Alexander locked down big chunks of real estate for the
- 11:50Speaker 2: Green Bay Packers, oozing with the swagger capital.
- 11:54Speaker 1: As for the swag, he had aura. He had aura,
- 11:57Speaker 1: which a big thing.
- 11:58Speaker 2: However, that is the player that he wont not the
- 12:01Speaker 2: player that he is today until proven all the wise.
- 12:03Speaker 2: I thought he can go out there and dominate and
- 12:05Speaker 2: make me look like a total donkey. But at this point,
- 12:07Speaker 2: we do the show today and he has been camping
- 12:10Speaker 2: out a lot in the injury tent. He has missed
- 12:14Speaker 2: twenty games. Twenty games over the last two years. That
- 12:19Speaker 2: is more than half of the available games he has missed.
- 12:24Speaker 2: And so he's been out a lot a long time,
- 12:26Speaker 2: all kinds of ailments. It looks like a medical book
- 12:30Speaker 2: and some college medical students looking at on different parts
- 12:34Speaker 2: of the body that can be injured. Their hamstring here,
- 12:37Speaker 2: a shoulder.
- 12:38Speaker 1: Over there, you name it, and so green bed they
- 12:41Speaker 1: got fed up. Whatever. The Packers are weird franchise.
- 12:44Speaker 2: The way they're operating there, and they cut a loose
- 12:47Speaker 2: But the bottom line here on this particular transaction is
- 12:52Speaker 2: the Ravens were already a contender, right, They're a heavyweight contender.
- 12:57Speaker 2: They're not quite as good as the Eaves, and the
- 13:01Speaker 2: Bills are right there. The Bills are a little bit
- 13:03Speaker 2: better than them. Usually you think that that's close. So
- 13:07Speaker 2: they're there and Alexander injury pron player and all that,
- 13:12Speaker 2: and it's more of like a lottery ticket. Now people
- 13:15Speaker 2: do win the lottery. People do win the lottery. It
- 13:19Speaker 2: does happen more people lose the lottery than when we
- 13:23Speaker 2: used to have a guy who he quit the show
- 13:24Speaker 2: a while back from Arkansas, Sir scratch Off and that
- 13:29Speaker 2: that was his nickname. And he's won some money in
- 13:31Speaker 2: the lottery. It's also lost a lot of money in
- 13:33Speaker 2: the lottery. All right, now, final point. We head now
- 13:36Speaker 2: to Dallas. Why because there was a story that caught
- 13:40Speaker 2: my attention. Jerry Jones, who loves stars, loves to hang
- 13:46Speaker 2: out with famous people, loves being Jerry Jones wants to
- 13:50Speaker 2: live to be one hundred and eighty because he's living
- 13:53Speaker 2: the greatest life you can possibly live. Rich guy owns
- 13:55Speaker 2: the Dallas Cowboy. So Jerry Jones is giving out the
- 14:00Speaker 2: kindness of his heart. It's being reported he's giving the
- 14:02Speaker 2: Dallas Cowboy cheerleaders a four hundred percent increase in pay,
- 14:09Speaker 2: yes four Now they were making nothing but four hundred percent.
- 14:13Speaker 2: So what does that signify to you? What does that
- 14:17Speaker 2: signify to you? So I'll go first year this is
- 14:19Speaker 2: it signifies to me? Bing binge watching gone bad, binge
- 14:25Speaker 2: watching gone bad. Meaning let me explain that Jerry was
- 14:29Speaker 2: catching up watching some of the Netflix documentary that's out
- 14:34Speaker 2: there about the Dallas Cowboy cheerleaders and had a metamorphosis.
- 14:38Speaker 2: He's like, wait a minute, here, the Cowboy cheerleaders were bitching.
- 14:42Speaker 2: They were complaining about how much money they were making.
- 14:45Speaker 2: It's been this way, of course, for fifty years. The
- 14:47Speaker 2: Cowboy cheerleaders have made no money. They're an add on
- 14:50Speaker 2: item for the Cowboys and just absolute chump change. It's
- 14:55Speaker 2: been that way since the beginning. And Jerry Jones says,
- 15:00Speaker 2: decided now to open up the vault, and he's gone
- 15:03Speaker 2: in there. He's dusted off the bank vault and open
- 15:08Speaker 2: it up and all that. After the Netflix sob story
- 15:12Speaker 2: called America's Sweethearts.
- 15:15Speaker 1: I believe that's the name of it. I think that's
- 15:16Speaker 1: the name of it.
- 15:18Speaker 2: And the show that featured the Dallas Cowboy cheerleaders there
- 15:23Speaker 2: whining about having to work multiple jobs and practicing forty
- 15:28Speaker 2: hours a week for the Cowboy cheerleading squad and doing
- 15:32Speaker 2: it all for pennies on the dollar, pennies on the dollar,
- 15:36Speaker 2: and of course unpopular opinion. Nobody forced you. Nobody forced
- 15:42Speaker 2: you to try out for the Dallas Cowboy cheerleading squad,
- 15:46Speaker 2: and once they told you how much it paid, you
- 15:48Speaker 2: didn't have to continue to do the job. I'm just saying,
- 15:51Speaker 2: but chances are you probably wanted the spotlight. You wanted
- 15:55Speaker 2: the trimmings that come with that job and the photo
- 15:58Speaker 2: shoots and all that stuff and the celebrity that you get. Right,
- 16:02Speaker 2: if you're a Dallas Cowboy cheerlider, that's kind of a
- 16:04Speaker 2: big deal, and people talk about you differently and near
- 16:08Speaker 2: your friends back in high school, like, oh, she's a
- 16:10Speaker 2: Cowboy cheerleader. That's like a big deal. But that doesn't
- 16:13Speaker 2: pay the rent, I don't think until now, and even
- 16:17Speaker 2: now it's it's not that much. But Jerry tried to
- 16:22Speaker 2: downplay the negative vibrations around that story about how cheap
- 16:26Speaker 2: the Cowboys owner was and bad PR, bad PR. And
- 16:31Speaker 2: Jerry likes everyone to say how great he is, and
- 16:33Speaker 2: so he's been dodging lawsuits related to the Cowboy cheerleaders.
- 16:36Speaker 1: There was a high profile.
- 16:38Speaker 2: Lawsuit while back, and he's looking to cut the lawyers
- 16:41Speaker 2: off of the pass, so we'll pay him more money.
- 16:44Speaker 1: And that's it.
- 16:46Speaker 2: Now another unpopular opinion. If Jerry Jones won, he's just
- 16:52Speaker 2: disbanded the Cowboy cheerier. Cheerleaders are not necessary. You can
- 16:57Speaker 2: have an NFL team without cheerleaders. In fact, they're certainly
- 17:00Speaker 2: a luxury more than a necessity in the NFL. And
- 17:05Speaker 2: it's like a window dressing. It's like a relic from
- 17:09Speaker 2: a different era. In the NFL was a mom and
- 17:11Speaker 2: pop operation, and back in the nineteen seventies, even before that,
- 17:17Speaker 2: but really the nineteen seventies was the heyday for the cheerleaders,
- 17:20Speaker 2: and back in those days when the NFL was owned
- 17:24Speaker 2: by families and not conglomerates.
- 17:26Speaker 1: Although I say this.
- 17:27Speaker 2: As Jerry Jones is a family ownership group, a family
- 17:31Speaker 2: ownership group. But they were like, hey, man, let's throw
- 17:34Speaker 2: some hot chicks out there, and these trunk losers will
- 17:37Speaker 2: be happy. You know, the team sucks, but they'll look
- 17:40Speaker 2: at the beautiful girls and they'll be happy.
- 17:42Speaker 1: And so they did. But the times have certainly changed
- 17:45Speaker 1: since then.
- 17:46Speaker 2: And it's just fluff and it often leads to more losses.
- 17:51Speaker 2: How many cheerleading squads have sued NFL teams? I know
- 17:54Speaker 2: in Washington the team formerly knows the Redskins, there was
- 17:58Speaker 2: a high profile lawsuit. The Cowboys have had a lawsuit.
- 18:00Speaker 2: I believe the Arizona Cardinals have had a lawsuit, and
- 18:04Speaker 2: I'm sure there's others that's just off the top of
- 18:06Speaker 2: my head. But they're not needed and it's more of
- 18:09Speaker 2: a hassle than anything. Now, the Cowboys do find a
- 18:11Speaker 2: way to make money and then there's a little more
- 18:13Speaker 2: glamour there with the Cowboys and other teams. But my
- 18:16Speaker 2: evidence that they're not needed, if I'm not mistaken, twenty
- 18:19Speaker 2: five percent of the NFL doesn't have cheerleaders. Twenty there's
- 18:24Speaker 2: thirty two members of the cartel and twenty five percent.
- 18:27Speaker 2: Eight of the thirty two teams don't have cheerleads. The Bears,
- 18:30Speaker 2: the Packers, the Browns, the Giants, although the Bears do
- 18:34Speaker 2: have Tony in the Bay Air. He is a cheerleader
- 18:37Speaker 2: for the Chicago Bears, but not a formal cheerleader. And
- 18:39Speaker 2: they get the Jets. They don't have the bills. Some
- 18:42Speaker 2: of these teams have had them in past. The Steelers don't.
- 18:44Speaker 2: Even the Chargers, they're able to play their games without
- 18:47Speaker 2: pomp pomps. They're able to do it and it doesn't
- 18:50Speaker 2: seem to affect the bottom line.
- 18:52Speaker 1: So there you go.
- 18:53Speaker 2: Anyway, that's my two cents on that. If you'd like
- 18:55Speaker 2: to be part you can. Probably you're better off just
- 18:57Speaker 2: sending me a message on exce's out and the phones
- 19:00Speaker 2: literally one line open actually is no I mean there's
- 19:03Speaker 2: one line working, which is very odd to me.
- 19:06Speaker 1: But anyway, I've.
- 19:07Speaker 2: Been here, been away for a couple days, and then

- 22:18Speaker 2: than see here twenty five emails from blind Scott who
- 22:22Speaker 2: was already on the air, was already on the air,
- 22:25Speaker 2: and a disaster.
- 22:27Speaker 1: What are we having now?
- 22:28Speaker 2: I did see Malard prop guy right in. He says,
- 22:32Speaker 2: another fantastic Hour number two Mallard monologue, and he's got
- 22:38Speaker 2: me as a cheerleader of late night drug tester Rights,
- 22:43Speaker 2: Sin says, I agree that Dallas Cowboy cheerleaders should be
- 22:45Speaker 2: grateful they were getting paid at all. I mean, Jerry
- 22:49Speaker 2: can hardly afford to fully clothe them during the games. Well,
- 22:56Speaker 2: the cost of fabric is extreme. Nick the win Guy
- 23:00Speaker 2: writes that he says, I normally I am normally a baseball fan. However,
- 23:04Speaker 2: I'd watch pom poms over that annoying Taylor Swift any day,
- 23:09Speaker 2: I'd any day.
- 23:10Speaker 1: All right, what else do we have? Page?
- 23:12Speaker 2: And uh, ferg Dog says, how about the Halo's laying
- 23:16Speaker 2: a beatdown on the Yankees three games in ro row?
- 23:21Speaker 2: Not bad for a ragtag team of misfits. Oh, do
- 23:25Speaker 2: you think we've still got a chance of winning the Pennant? Well,
- 23:29Speaker 2: it depends on how many times do you play the
- 23:31Speaker 2: video game, Ferg Dog, if you reset and go back
- 23:34Speaker 2: to there. No, but the Angels they are six and
- 23:36Speaker 2: oh this season at Dodger Stadium and Yankee Stadium.
- 23:40Speaker 1: And what a I was watching this game?
- 23:43Speaker 2: Actually, I usually have a game on in the background,
- 23:45Speaker 2: and I happen to be watching the Yankees Angels game.
- 23:48Speaker 2: And it was awesome because I flashed back watching the
- 23:51Speaker 2: Yankees defense implode, Anthony Volpi a hole in his glove
- 23:57Speaker 2: at shortstop for the Yankees, a defense boo boo for
- 24:01Speaker 2: the Bronx Bombers. And it reminded me of the greatest
- 24:03Speaker 2: defensive playoff ever seen by Yankee. Aaron Judge in center
- 24:08Speaker 2: field fifth inning and Tommy Tanks hits the fly ball
- 24:13Speaker 2: center field and Aaron jar and he butchers the ball
- 24:17Speaker 2: fifth inning floodgates open up, Garrett Cole fails to cover
- 24:20Speaker 2: first base, and Dodgers of the Champions of Baseball because
- 24:24Speaker 2: of the incompetence of the Yankee defense. And it's good
- 24:27Speaker 2: to see that Aaron Boone team still blows on defense.
- 24:30Speaker 1: And the Yankees.
- 24:32Speaker 2: You talk about a team having a tough patch there.
- 24:34Speaker 2: I know you didn't ask about that for Doug. You
- 24:35Speaker 2: want to do Angel propaganda. But the New York Yankees
- 24:39Speaker 2: have been getting smoked. Here. I got swept by the
- 24:43Speaker 2: Red Sox over the weekend. Now of the Angels, that's
- 24:46Speaker 2: not a sweep. There's a day game today. But what
- 24:49Speaker 2: is wrong with the New York Yankees have lost for
- 24:54Speaker 2: the eighth time now or six time in a row
- 24:58Speaker 2: and eight time eighteen games. The losing streak though, the
- 25:02Speaker 2: longest since they've lost nine straight and that was back
- 25:06Speaker 2: in August. So the Yankees are having having their problem.
- 25:11Speaker 2: Six straight losses for the mighty New York Yankees, and
- 25:16Speaker 2: there's nobody hitting nobody. Let's go to the phones. We'll
- 25:19Speaker 2: say hello to.
- 25:20Speaker 1: Us, see her any meanie money.
- 25:21Speaker 2: Moo Tony in the Bay Area, Hello, Tony, welcome, Hey man.
- 25:27Speaker 5: Are you cool?
- 25:27Speaker 7: With Brian.
- 25:28Speaker 2: Now, uh, I don't really know Brian Man. He fills
- 25:32Speaker 2: and he does a good job from what I understand.
- 25:34Speaker 1: Yeah, don't. I don't have an issue. Seems like a
- 25:36Speaker 1: good guy.
- 25:36Speaker 7: Why, okay, could you let him know if he goes
- 25:39Speaker 7: on YouTube and types in L seven slob he can
- 25:43Speaker 7: see a guy crying down a slide and rolling around
- 25:46Speaker 7: like a little girl, where he could just type in
- 25:48Speaker 7: David Veasse.
- 25:50Speaker 1: Oh okay, thank you, you're okay. There you go.
- 25:52Speaker 2: So tremendous contribution by Tony in the Bay Area. I'm
- 25:57Speaker 2: so glad we took that call. Alf the Alien, Opie
- 26:00Speaker 2: writes and says, hey, Ben, the Chargers may not have
- 26:02Speaker 2: pom bombs, but they have thundersticks. Just ask Eddie Garcia. Well, yeah,
- 26:08Speaker 2: Eddie's the not. Eddie's wife is really our old buddy
- 26:12Speaker 2: Eddie that used to work here.
- 26:13Speaker 3: Eddie's name outshawfing Ma.
- 26:17Speaker 2: Yeah, but I did text Eddie the other day. We
- 26:21Speaker 2: were talking of your text because I at the Dodger game.
- 26:23Speaker 2: Marlin's Man invited me to He's a fan of the show.
- 26:27Speaker 2: As he drives around South Beach clubbing at late at
- 26:30Speaker 2: night there in Miami, and Eddie's name came up, so
- 26:33Speaker 2: I text Eddie and then he wrote back, and we
- 26:36Speaker 2: were going back and forth on that, and it was
- 26:39Speaker 2: it was wonderful. Og Art Puffin writes and says, unlike
- 26:43Speaker 2: the poor Podres, whom by this time tomorrow will fail,
- 26:48Speaker 2: will fall rather by the mop at the hands of
- 26:51Speaker 2: the greatest MLB club to ever exist. Yep, you guessed it,
- 26:55Speaker 2: my Los Angeles Dodgers, says og Art Puffman.
- 27:00Speaker 1: I did see some.
- 27:00Speaker 2: Rhythmic chanting after the Dodgers beat the Padres on a
- 27:03Speaker 2: Will Smith home run.
- 27:05Speaker 1: There there were.
- 27:07Speaker 2: People chanting anti San Diego propaganda there as they were
- 27:11Speaker 2: very excited with that late win. After the Dodger bullpen.
- 27:16Speaker 2: What's left of the Dodger bullpen, Blue the lead slot boy,
- 27:21Speaker 2: that Dodger pitching staff. For all the talk that this
- 27:25Speaker 2: team is the greatest pitching staff of all time blah
- 27:27Speaker 2: blah blah blah blah blah blah back in spring training,
- 27:31Speaker 2: and some of the pitchers that they're out, And I like,
- 27:33Speaker 2: I watched baseball every night, I'm watching multiple games. There
- 27:36Speaker 2: are guys on the Dodgers. I have no idea who
- 27:38Speaker 2: they are. I don't know where they came from I
- 27:39Speaker 2: don't know where they're going, and yet doesn't matter. Dodgers
- 27:44Speaker 2: end up winning most of these games. They are seventeen
- 27:48Speaker 2: games above five hundred, and most of that at Dodger Stadium.
- 27:53Speaker 2: That's the twenty fifth comeback win this season for the Dodgers.
- 27:58Speaker 2: First place. They've won five in a row and this
- 28:01Speaker 2: season against the Padres, who lived to beat the Dodgers.
- 28:05Speaker 2: The Padres are one in five against the Doyers this season,
- 28:11Speaker 2: which I'm told is not good. I'm told is not good.
- 28:14Speaker 2: So over the past weekend turned the Patriot at Golf.
- 28:19Speaker 2: But it's not really a golf story. It's just about
- 28:21Speaker 2: what you do when you're having a bad couple of days.
- 28:24Speaker 2: So the US Open was very difficult outside Pittsburgh. Now
- 28:29Speaker 2: I watched a little bit of this. We didn't really
- 28:31Speaker 2: do much on it. I did mention the US Open.
- 28:34Speaker 2: It wasn't really worthy of a.
- 28:36Speaker 1: Full Mallard monologue, I believe.
- 28:38Speaker 2: I talked about ry McElroy and some of the things
- 28:40Speaker 2: he said over the weekend about I don't need to
- 28:42Speaker 2: talk to the media. I've earned the right, you know,
- 28:44Speaker 2: because he's God's gift to golf. So we goofed on
- 28:47Speaker 2: him a little bit. I didn't really talk about the
- 28:48Speaker 2: tournament itself because it really wasn't worthy of a full monologue.
- 28:52Speaker 2: But it was a tough weekend, as it's supposed to
- 28:55Speaker 2: be at the US Open. And after the event, Dan
- 29:00Speaker 2: speF he he said that he was so shaken up.
- 29:04Speaker 1: By the way that he played and he didn't do
- 29:06Speaker 1: that well and all.
- 29:07Speaker 2: That stuff, that he went over to Buffalo Wild Wings
- 29:10Speaker 2: and what did he do Abuffal wild Wings?
- 29:12Speaker 1: He got hammered.
- 29:14Speaker 2: He he said, I needed to throw a few back,
- 29:17Speaker 2: just that kind of thing.
- 29:19Speaker 1: So he went over there and let it rip, let
- 29:23Speaker 1: it rip another It was the third major of the
- 29:27Speaker 1: year there at Oakmont, and he's, you know, I just
- 29:31Speaker 1: didn't go so well.
- 29:32Speaker 2: Some guy named JJ Spahn, who I found out from
- 29:36Speaker 2: somebody in San Diego who sent me an email, said
- 29:39Speaker 2: he eight students from San Diego State. Man, Like, how
- 29:42Speaker 2: am I supposed to know where golfers went to college?
- 29:45Speaker 1: Anyway? Uhyah, I'm not that into golf. I'm not. I
- 29:49Speaker 1: don't know.
- 29:49Speaker 2: I don't have a scorecard where they went to college,
- 29:52Speaker 2: nor do I want to know that.
- 29:54Speaker 1: I do not want to know that.
- 29:55Speaker 2: But anyway, Jordan speed said he was so mentally exhausted
- 29:58Speaker 2: when everything was done, so taken aback by the tremendously
- 30:03Speaker 2: difficult course that he had to go. And uh, you know,
- 30:06Speaker 2: let some let some drinks go unwind and unwind a
- 30:10Speaker 2: little bit, crushed some beers and some wings. And let
- 30:14Speaker 2: me guess, I'm gonna go on on a limb and
- 30:16Speaker 2: say that he's sponsored by Buffalo Wild Wings.
- 30:19Speaker 1: I don't know that for sure.
- 30:21Speaker 2: It's possible that it's not the case, but uh, I'm
- 30:24Speaker 2: just going on a limb.
- 30:25Speaker 1: Hears a more.
- 30:26Speaker 2: Likely than not, more likely than not that he's got
- 30:29Speaker 2: some kind of endorsement deal.
- 30:30Speaker 1: Otherwise he would have said Hooters or something else.
- 30:33Speaker 2: He would have gone some other direction there and and
- 30:36Speaker 2: that's the way that would have gone. Uh, and you
- 30:39Speaker 2: feed me in Chicago, writes and he says, Hey, Mallard,
- 30:42Speaker 2: a plus and a double butterburger with cheese. On the
- 30:46Speaker 2: Mallard monologue at the top of the hour it begin
- 30:49Speaker 2: the show, he says Wall Street is taking over professional sports.
- 30:53Speaker 2: Eventually that will only be conglomerates owning teams. Says you
- 30:59Speaker 2: feed me, Well, if you want an example of that,
- 31:01Speaker 2: now you're in Chicago, ya Feemi, and you go down
- 31:04Speaker 2: to Wrigley Field now and you drive around that area
- 31:07Speaker 2: around the ballpark.
- 31:08Speaker 1: The Cubs ownership group.
- 31:09Speaker 2: Bought pretty much all of the real estate right around
- 31:12Speaker 2: Wrigley Field now.
- 31:13Speaker 1: I was at Wrigley Field.
- 31:15Speaker 2: Many many years ago, and it's been a minute, and
- 31:18Speaker 2: when I had first gone to Wrigley Field, it was
- 31:21Speaker 2: the way it had been since.
- 31:23Speaker 1: The beginning, right It was just like all these like dive.
- 31:25Speaker 2: Bars and housing and they put seats, crappy seats on
- 31:30Speaker 2: the roof across from Wrigley Field, and it was just
- 31:32Speaker 2: the way it had been and the way I grew
- 31:34Speaker 2: up watching it on WGN, the superstation with Harry Carey
- 31:37Speaker 2: and Steve Stone calling.
- 31:39Speaker 1: Cubs games when I was a kid.
- 31:40Speaker 2: So I went there and I saw it, and I
- 31:42Speaker 2: was a young guy, as a young adult, I saw
- 31:44Speaker 2: it that way. And then I went back a couple
- 31:46Speaker 2: of years ago and went to Wrigley and it was
- 31:49Speaker 2: like being at Disney Disneyland, like downtown Disney. They had
- 31:55Speaker 2: bought pretty much everything around the ballpark and it just
- 32:00Speaker 2: had this corporate kind of haze and it just lost
- 32:04Speaker 2: all of the feel, if you know what I mean.
- 32:08Speaker 2: You know it's just stuff, you know, corporate stuff takes over.
- 32:11Speaker 1: And it loses that. I don't know what the word.
- 32:15Speaker 2: I'm looking for is, but there's something about that where
- 32:16Speaker 2: you just you don't have the same and they try
- 32:18Speaker 2: to recreate it, like these teams that buy the property
- 32:21Speaker 2: around the ball, but they try to re Like the
- 32:23Speaker 2: Red Sox did the same thing in Boston.
- 32:25Speaker 1: They bought a lot of the stuff around Finnway.
- 32:28Speaker 2: And it's a little different there because of the way
- 32:31Speaker 2: the setup is around Finway Park, at least in my
- 32:33Speaker 2: experience when I've been there a few times over the years.
- 32:35Speaker 2: But Wrigley Field just really felt like so corporate, like
- 32:39Speaker 2: it was like over the top corporate. Anyway, it is
- 32:42Speaker 2: the Ben Mallor Show. As we are working a way
- 32:46Speaker 2: through the over night. Now I think we have the
- 32:47Speaker 2: play of the day. I have no idea. I did
- 32:49Speaker 2: not find out what the player it is, so I
- 32:50Speaker 2: don't know what it is. I don't know what sport
- 32:52Speaker 2: is from. I have no idea. So I guess we'll
- 32:54Speaker 2: just say play the play of the day and then
- 32:56Speaker 2: we'll find out what it is.
- 32:57Speaker 1: I have no idea. Nobody told me here we go
