  Speaker 1: believes that the Jets program is headed in the right

  Speaker 1: direction despite losing to the winless Dolphins. What say you?
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: And is the NFL being hypocritical by promoting Giants running

• 4:06
  Speaker 1: Motor City. That was the big game on Fox. Did
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: you watch it on Fox One?
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: No?
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: It was a NFC rhubarb, divisional rhubarb. You had the
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: Lions taking on the team from Green Bay, the Packers.
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: Lions held on for the victory. The better story, though,
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: on the cheesehead side of things, you had a controversial
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: moment In the second half of this game, as TV's
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: Tom Brady, blasting, blasting the referees for a controversial roughing
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: the passer call. That happened late in the Packer-Lions game.
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: And there were a couple of other calls that did
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: not seem to go the direction of the Green Bay Packers.
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: There was a call also that went against the Lions.
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: I was shocked. watching this game while flipping to the
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: other games. So from what I saw, there were three
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: controversial calls. The big one was the roughing the passer call,
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: and Tom Brady put the referees on blast on Fox. Well,
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: after the game, did you see what happened?
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: No.
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: The Packers' safety, Xavier McKinney, unloaded on the NFL officiating
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: following that loss. Now, Matt LeFleur... afraid of getting fined,
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: chose to take the cowardly route and not rip the referees.
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: Wanted to save his money. Xavier McKinney, though, was having
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: none of that. He was not staying silent. He blasted
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: the inconsistent penalties, questionable calls, and he claimed a double standard.
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: He was upset about a double standard. He said, quote,
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: they're going to flag you for anything, he complained. McKinney
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: accusing the officials of failing to protect The Packers players
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: equally calling the officiating bull pucky. Now, he did not
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: use the word pucky. I used the word pucky. He
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: did not say bull pucky. He used another word that
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: starts with bull. I don't know which one. It might
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: have been like out in the ocean, you see the
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: ship that goes, yeah. McKinney accused officials of, as we said,
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: not protecting the Packers, not getting the calls right, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: And was upset. And he said he welcomed a potential fine.
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: And he had to speak out publicly. So that is
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: a good jumping off point. Let us discuss the question.
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: Does Green Bay Packers safety Xavier McKinney have a legitimate
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: grievance against about the inconsistent penalties in the NFL for
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: the team from Wisconsin. So I've got Cheesecake Factory, Hubble
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: Space Telescope, and Roman Empire. And we will combine all
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: of these things together. We're going to have a little
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: baba ghanoush. We're going to have the gabagoo. And for Benjamin,
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: we'll have some jambalaya. Now, first of all, Xavier McKinney,
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: of the Green Bay football team has diagnosed the disease. Congratulations.
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: You have diagnosed the disease. The NFL has an epidemic
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: of over-officiating. I'm not sure who exactly is behind this
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: at the NFL. It has to come from these owners,
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: the aristocrats, who recommend, here's how we want our game
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: to be presented. We want micromanaging, is what we want.
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: And the referees, I always thought the referees were supposed
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: to be kind of like wallpaper, not the furniture. They're
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: on the wall, and you don't really pay that close
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: attention to it, and that's it. And I think McKinney's
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: absolutely right. Now, did I watch every second of every
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: Green Bay game? No, I did not. But I do
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: know that nobody, nobody buys a ticket. And they're like, oh, man,
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: I want to see that referee throw that little yellow handkerchief.
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: That's what I want to see. So I believe McKinney's
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: spot on on this. And the NFL has this infestation.
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: It's an infestation when it comes to the officiating. And
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: it is a big problem. There's too many flags, too
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: many delays, and way too much ticky-tack micromanagement. It's a problem.
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: And the Zebras have become the main attraction instead of
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: the supporting cast. There needs to be some kind of intervention.
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: And the NFL usually adjusts as we go through the season. Typically,
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: they start out with a lot of crappy calls, and
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: then they say, well, let's just let them play. The
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: officials have developed into this main character syndrome thing, and
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: there's a number of them that try to get as
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: much TV time as they can. I'm convinced of it.
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: And they think that you and I want to watch them.
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: This just in to Fox Sports Radio. No, we don't, dummies.
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: We don't want to watch you. The top officials. It's
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: kind of like when you go to a restaurant. We
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: go to Cheesecake Factory or something like that. The top
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: referees and referees in general are supposed to be like
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: a good waiter. A good waiter. You barely notice they're there.
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: You don't even realize they're there. They don't impede. They
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: give you your space. They observe from a distance. They
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: see when you need more to drink or you're getting
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: low on something, and they help you out. But they're
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: not impeding. They're in the background. Instead, these referees, these officials,
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: they're like those people– Who consistently interrupt, you know, if
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: you go to the movies, I haven't been to the
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: movies that much recently, moved on from that. I used
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: to go back when they made good movies and I'd
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: go and all that. And there'd always be that person
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: that would have to explain everything. We call him an a-hole.
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: You know, the a-hole guy.
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: Oh, yeah.
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: Let me tell you what happened to that scene. No,
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: I'm trying to watch. I'm trying to watch, dude. Okay,
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: you don't need to explain the plot and every scene
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: in the frickin' movie, loser. We don't need that. Nobody
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: asked you. And the other thing that's maddening is the NFL,
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: every game, there's 47 cameras on Probably more than that.
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: Like 47 camera angles. There's a command center. The NFL
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: referee command in New York. Six referees standing around. And
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: somehow they still F it up. Which is fascinating. They
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: still screw it up. They still make the mistakes. And
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: the Zebras need to learn the most important rule. The
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: top rule for the officiating. Stay out of the way.
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: And stay in your lane and stay out of the way.
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: All right, secondly, to New Jersey, where Jets coach Aaron
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: Glenn made an interesting comment. The Jets did the impossible.
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: They lost to the Dolphins, a team that is not
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: trying to win any games, and yet they somehow beat
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: the Jets. And Aaron Glenn insisted that despite that, his
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: team is, quote, on the right track.
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: What?
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: What? A humiliating loss to the Miami Dolphins, but the
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: Jets are on the right track. The previously winless Miami Dolphins.
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: So New York is 2-5. Aaron Glenn claims, quote, there
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: is no quit in his locker room. He said that
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: and praised his players' efforts. Don't they get paid for that?
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: Why do they need to get praised for that? Why
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: would you praise your players for doing what they're supposed
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: to do? I don't understand why you would celebrate that.
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: He did. Four of New York's five defeats have come
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: by one score. So the argument from the Aaron Glenn
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: Marching and Chowder Society is that the Jets are competitive.
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: They're getting close because they're losing close games. All right,
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: so the question. You've got Coach Aaron Glenn, who believes
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: the Jets program, which he's behind. The Jets program is
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: headed in the right direction despite injuries. to the previously
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: winless Miami Dolphins. What say you? So I will chime
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: in on this. Welcome, Aaron Glenn. The oracle of the
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: obvious has spoken. Congratulations. Aaron Glenn says the Jets are
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: headed in the right direction. Unfortunately, we looked at the GPS,
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: and the direction is right into the wood chipper. Right
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: into the wood chipper. That's where the Jets are headed
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: at this point. And this... If this is the right direction,
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: which Aaron Glenn says, like, what else is he going
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: to say, right? What else is he going to say?
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: I would hate to see what the wrong direction looks
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: like for the Jets if this is going right, that
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: we're playing hard and we're losing to the Dolphins. But
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: things are going well. Things are going really well. And Glenn,
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: very positive guy. He's got more positive affirmations than one
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: of those cheesy health seminar type things. You know, go
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: to the Courtyard by Marriott podcast. And there's some convention
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: going on. And we're going to make your life better.
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: And here's why. And we've got all these slogans. It's
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: like Aaron Glenn is a motivational speaker trapped inside the
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: body of a 5-19 football coach. The Jets coach has
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: a 208 winning percentage, which seems like every other Jets
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: coach in my lifetime. And so you would need to
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: have x-ray vision. You've got to have x-ray vision, night
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: vision goggles, and... the Hubble Space Telescope to locate the
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: progress of the jets under Aaron Glenn. Now, I don't
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: have access to the Hubble Space Telescope. I don't have
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: night vision goggles, and I'm lacking X-ray vision. So from
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: this side of the microphone, these are your daddy's jets.
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: It's the same old rah-rah bullcrap. And if Aaron Glenn
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: had his own GPS... And he was just following it along.
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: The GPS would say recalculating, recalculating, recalculating, recalculating. And then
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: he would just drive off into the Atlantic Ocean somewhere.
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: And he'd say, listen, I just wanted to see if
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: the car was waterproof. That's all. I was just trying
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: to test it. That's it. Okay, fine. And I'll give
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: Aaron Glenn a tag, a brag tag. Congratulations, Aaron Glenn.
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: You get a brag tag for creative fiction. Way to go.
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: Way to go. Way to go. Way to go. He
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: hasn't fixed the Jets. We know that. He hasn't fixed
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: the Jets. He has just changed the vocabulary. That's all
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: Aaron Glenn has done. Creative nonsense in terms of the vocabulary.
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: There is no suspense. If this was a movie, there
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: is no suspense in this particular movie with the Jets.
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: Everybody knows how this ends, just like every other Jets season,
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: with a bunch of losses, and that's it. And the audience,
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: a lot of them demanding refunds, wondering why they've wasted
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: their time. And that's all. All right, now, final thought.
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: To Houston, where the Giants played. The football Giants. The G-Men.
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: They played the Texans. So reports of the Texans returning,
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: getting back on track, were greatly exaggerated. They had a
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: chance to go back to one game under. 500. and
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: that didn't work out so well. No, it did not.
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: As Cam Scadaboo rushed for 124 yards and a touchdown,
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: and the Giants win in overtime, overtime, as they take
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: down the Texans. J.J. McCarthy started, played better than Kyler
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: Murray over in Minnesota, but it was Cam Scadaboo in
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: the running game that torched what was supposed to be
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: a good defense by the Texans. They were not good
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: on this day. No, they were not. Now, the story
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: here is after the game. So the Giants get the win.
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: They're 4-2-1. They're in the catbird seat in the NFC East,
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: or NFC Lease, as we like to call it. But
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: the story is Cam Scadaboo ripping the NFL for penalizing
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: him for lowering his helmet, which used to just be
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: called good football. You're the offensive player. You're engaging a
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: defensive player. You lower your helmet down. When you make contact.
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: But in the modern wussification of the NFL, you're not
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: allowed to do that. And so, anyway, Skadaboo's upset because
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: not only is the NFL fining him, they're also using
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: his clips to go viral online. Who goofed? I've got them. Anyway,
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: here's Cam Skadaboo.
• 16:33
  Speaker 4: The NFL loves to post me when I do stuff
• 16:36
  Speaker 4: like that, but then also wants to take stuff from me.
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: So.
• 16:39
  Speaker 4: I'm going to run the ball like I want to
• 16:41
  Speaker 4: run the ball. And if I'm going to continue to
• 16:43
  Speaker 4: get flagged for it or fined for it, man, it's just,
• 16:45
  Speaker 4: I guess I'm going to play for free. You know,
• 16:47
  Speaker 4: I'm going to, I'm going to do what I can
• 16:49
  Speaker 4: to be on this team, to give everything I got.
• 16:51
  Speaker 4: And if they're going to punish me for that, then
• 16:54
  Speaker 4: I'm just going to keep doing it.
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: Keep playing hard. There's a lot of ambient noise, but
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: he said the NFL loves to post me when I
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: do stuff like that. Scatterboo said, but Dan also wants
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: to take stuff from me. And then he said, oh,
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: I guess I'll have to play for free if that's that, blah, blah, blah, blah.
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: All right, so the question. Is the NFL being hypocritical
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: by promoting the Giants running back Cam Scadaboo's violent running
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: style and then penalizing him for said violent running style?
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: So after a minutes-long deliberation of the available information, the
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: NFL is a walking, talking contradiction. on this topic, like
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: they are a lot of things. You've got social media
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: dingleberries on one side in cubicles high-fiving over Cam Scadaboo's
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: latest million-view video of him engaging like a real football
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: player back in the day. Oh, man, look at that.
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: It gets in the algorithm. The algorithm loves Cam Scadaboo. Great.
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: It's wonderful. Meanwhile, down the hallway... The pigskin bureaucrats, the
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: people that make the rules of the game, they're like, oh,
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: there's a fine. We're going to fine them for that.
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: The NFL loves the sausage. The NFL can't get enough
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: of the sausage. But apparently does not, does not want
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: anyone watching how the sausage gets made. You can't do it.
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: Don't do it. And Cam Skadarou is a modern day gladiator.
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: He is. Well, just ask him. He'll tell you. You know,
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: he reminds me of like a poor man's Rob Gronkowski.
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: Total meathead. Not a lot between the ears, Cam Scadaboo.
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: And in the NFL, he's the modern gladiator. In the NFL,
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: they're like the Roman Empire. They're selling tickets to the
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: bloodbath while fighting him for making a mess. Like, what
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: are you doing, dude? You're making a mess. You can't
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: do that. Well, I'm a gladiator. Well, no, you're not.
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: You can't do that. And so the NFL is selling
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: Cam Scadaboo. The violence, it's kind of like IHOP sells pancakes,
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: you know, hotcakes at IHOP. We'll sell that, we'll sell that. Okay, fine.
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: And then treating him like he's some kind of goon, felon, thug,
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: Cam Scadaboo, for supplying the batter. What are you doing?
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: You can't do that. So Scadaboo is being punished for
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: playing the very brand of football, the type of football
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: that made football popular. That made it the spectacle that
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: it has become over the years. And his style is
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: now taboo. Cannot do it. The NFL wants a monster
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: truck rally, but everybody's supposed to drive a Prius. That's it. Well,
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: that's no fun. Nobody wants to go to a monster
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: truck rally where it's Priuses driving into Priuses. Nobody wants that.
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: So you cannot simultaneously. monetize a behavior and morally condemn
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: the same behavior without looking like a total fraud. which
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: is what the NFL looks like. But the NFL is
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: so big that I've seen some of these social media
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: people that post stuff for teams. Cause I go to
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: these games and I'm lucky enough. I have media access
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: and it's all some kid just out of college. It's
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: all just a couple of kids just out of college. Like, Hey,
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: it's because the older people, they don't know social media.
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: They're like, Hey, you post some crap. And so they're
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: fresh off the boat from college, and they're just tossing
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: stuff out. It is the Ben Maller Show. If you
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: would like to be part, you can join us right now, 877-99-ON-FOX.
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: 877-99-ON-FOX is the number if you'd like to be part
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: of the program. So the NFL played a game in Paris.
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: And there was a fiasco. Now, it didn't involve the
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: lunatics running around trying to burn down Paris. They avoided that. However,
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: there was something else that went on at the NFL
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: Sojourn in Paris, which was rather embarrassing. And not a
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: lot of people are talking about it. We'll get to that.
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: And also, later on this hour, the next level hyperbole.
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: The scream heard around the NFL. We'll get to that
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: as well. And we will do it next.
• 21:13
  Speaker 5: Be sure to catch live editions of the Ben Maller
• 21:16
  Speaker 5: Show weekdays at 2 a.m. Eastern, 11 p.m. Pacific on

• 21:24
  Speaker 6: Welcome to Football Doesn't Lie.
• 21:26
  Speaker 7: Hi, I'm Bill Parcells.
• 21:28
  Speaker 6: And I'm Catherine Zazzora.
• 21:30
  Speaker 7: I have a lot of experience in the game of football, Catherine.
• 21:33
  Speaker 6: And I'm learning the game with Bill's help. Every week,
• 21:36
  Speaker 6: we're going to talk about the NFL slate through the
• 21:38
  Speaker 6: lens of Bill's expertise as he coaches me from novice
• 21:41
  Speaker 6: fan to football expert over the course of the season.
• 21:44
  Speaker 7: You know, I'm looking forward to this show, Catherine, and
• 21:47
  Speaker 7: hopefully we can give our audience a little in-depth look
• 21:50
  Speaker 7: into the inner sanctum of pro football that they can't
• 21:53
  Speaker 7: get anywhere else.
• 21:54
  Speaker 6: Tune in every Thursday for unfiltered stories from Coach Parcells,
• 21:58
  Speaker 6: analysis on the state of the modern game, and education
• 22:01
  Speaker 6: on how football really works.
• 22:03
  Speaker 7: Continuity is very important. But what happens when you get
• 22:07
  Speaker 7: good coaches on your staff and people begin to recognize them,
• 22:11
  Speaker 7: then they want to hire them. And then you can't
• 22:15
  Speaker 7: stop a guy from trying to improve himself, but you
• 22:18
  Speaker 7: have to replace them.
• 22:20
  Speaker 6: Because once you understand what's going on inside the mind
• 22:22
  Speaker 6: of the coaches, you'll understand more about the whole game.
• 22:25
  Speaker 7: So all aspects can be discussed. The only thing I
• 22:28
  Speaker 7: haven't done, because I didn't have enough money, I don't
• 22:32
  Speaker 7: own the team. I never owned a team.
• 22:34
  Speaker 6: Listen to Football Doesn't Lie on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts,
• 22:38

• 23:00
  Speaker 1: games for the price of one. Not a bad Monday.
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: Anybody watching the World Series? According to the ratings, they

• 23:10

  Speaker 1: that in a minute. And the NFL game tonight. However,

• 23:32
  Speaker 1: on the X Machine at Ben Maller. That's at Ben Maller.
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: It's the day before our friend Lorena's birthday. She's here.

  Speaker 1: Your comments can and will be used against you in
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: the court of the Mallard Militia. Thank you. So we
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: got Freddy Peralta, the ex-Met, the ex-brewer, on the mound
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: for Tampa Bay as they try to win that game
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: and not get Well, they're not going to get swept
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: if they lose tonight, but they're on the brink of
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: being swept if they lose tonight. Somebody named Robert Gasser
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: is on the mound. The gas can for the Brewers
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: and Tampa Bay opened up a minus 122 favorite on
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: the gambling line on DraftKings. I believe that's gone down
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: a little bit over on DraftKings, but Freddy Peralta. is
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: favored for Tampa Bay. And then we've got Monday Night Football.
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: Monday Night Football, the Eagles and the Cowboys. And before
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: the injury to Jalen Hurts knocked him out for the season,
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: the Eagles originally were only favored by a point. Now
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: the Cowboys are a 4.5-point underdog. Or the Eagles, rather,
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: are a 4.5-point underdog. Dallas is favored by 4.5 in
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: the Monday Night game. Tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight, Cowboy Drew
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: writes and says, these referees aren't screwing up. The NFL
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: is obviously rigged. That's what he said. What else do
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: we have? Page down. I can't read that. Let's go
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: to the phones. E-Dawg hasn't called in a while. There's
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: a full moon, so a lot of the guys call
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: now because there's a full moon going on for the
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: last couple days. Hello, E-Dawg on Long Island.
• 25:24
  Speaker 2: Welcome. Welcome.
• 25:26
  Speaker 3: All right, that's very important that you share that.
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: Thank you for calling up and sharing that. I do
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: appreciate that. I think there's nothing the consumer to an
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: early morning overnight talk show needs to know than E-Dog
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: is going to see his girlfriend today. That's very important.
• 25:46
  Speaker 2: What?
• 25:56
  Speaker 3: The Tampa Bay first baseman, it gets by him. It
• 26:00
  Speaker 3: gets by the first baseman. It gets by the first baseman.
• 26:03
  Speaker 3: Remember that when he went through his legs?
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: Yes, when the Tampa Bay Rays lost to the Mets
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: in the World Series. I do remember that, yeah.
• 26:14
  Speaker 8: No, no.
• 26:14
  Speaker 3: A day ago.
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: Oh, Yandy Diaz you're talking about? Yeah, Yandy Diaz.
• 26:21
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I like the Bears. They're playing good football. They're
• 26:26
  Speaker 3: a good team. I want them to win the division.
• 26:28
  Speaker 3: It's a tough division.
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: Congratulations on liking the Bears. I'm proud of you. So
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: you had somebody call us up a week ago or so.
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: Is that true? A woman called us up claiming to
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: know you?
• 26:42
  Speaker 3: Is that Monica?
• 26:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it was Monica. I think so, yeah.
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: What was that about? I thought Melissa was your girlfriend.
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: I played a field. But you just said Melissa's your
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: girlfriend and this other woman, Monica, is involved. What's going
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: on with that? You're getting in trouble, dude. These women
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: generally don't like that. We don't like to share. Listen,
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: how about your Cowboys, Lorena? That's a non-segment. Let me
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: get your thoughts. Sorry, I wanted to do this anyway.
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: I'll do this with you. Monica's beautiful.
• 27:13
  Speaker 3: She's beautiful.
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: Congratulations. Who cares? What were you going to say? It
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: was just fiasco in Paris. Did you see what happened?
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: There was the game in Paris yesterday morning. The Steelers-Saints game.
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: Did you see what happened?
• 27:28
  Speaker 3: I was on my way to my supermarket one day,
• 27:31
  Speaker 3: and there was a guy there wearing a French shirt.
• 27:34
  Speaker 3: And I go, I'll pay you for that French jersey.
• 27:37
  Speaker 3: And he goes, I'm sorry, I can't tell you.
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: So the NFL had a food fiasco. The first game
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: in France, there was a concession stand catastrophe. as they
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: ran out of food at halftime of the game. And
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: this created a bit of a culture war between those
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: in France and America. You seem bothered by this. Are
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: you troubled by this? Is everything okay?
• 28:07
  Speaker 3: So you think I should hit it off with Monica?
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: So multiple reports. Concession stands exhausted their food supplies before halftime.
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: People were scrambling. There's only beer remaining available at concession
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: stands in the second half. One fan reported five visits
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: to different concession stands at the stadium in Paris without
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: finding any food. There were lines outside for food trucks everywhere.
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: that stretched at least 75 people deep to get something
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: off a food truck. They also criticized the merch. They
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: said there was inadequate staffing at the merch stands, disorganized,
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: and the shops closed earlier than advertised. They ran out
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: of stuff. And, but wait, the people of France. Do
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: you see this, E-Dog? The people of France complaining, saying
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: that when people in France go to sporting events... They
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: eat before or after. They don't eat at the game.
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: And they were ripping the Americans who were visiting Paris,
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: treating it like it was an all-you-can-eat situation. Your thoughts, E-Dog?
• 29:15
  Speaker 8: What?
• 29:18
  Speaker 3: I spoke at an AA meeting last night. I was great.
• 29:22
  Speaker 3: And when I go to a program today, there's this
• 29:24
  Speaker 3: girl there. Her name is Stacy. She gives me licorice.
• 29:27
  Speaker 3: And she used to go soccer for Westfield High School.
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: Aren't you not supposed to talk about going to AA meetings?
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: I thought the rule was whatever happens there has to
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: stay at the meeting.
• 29:38
  Speaker 3: I break down in a minute, you know. But anyway,
• 29:40
  Speaker 3: Stacy likes me.
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: But you've got Melissa and then Monica. You can't have Stacy's.
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: Is that a song or something? I feel like that's
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: a song.
• 29:49
  Speaker 3: Well, Stacy's a good friend of mine. Yeah, like Mambo,
• 29:52
  Speaker 3: number five. You know that guy Tracy Morgan?
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: I've heard. Didn't he vomit at a Knicks game last year?
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: Remember that? Or two years ago?
• 30:02
  Speaker 3: He used to be a cab driver for me.
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: I don't believe you.
• 30:07
  Speaker 3: Come on, man.
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: You're making that up, bro. You're making that up.
• 30:12
  Speaker 3: No, I'm not, man.
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: I mean, you just ruined it. I did a whole
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: food thing. You just ruined it. You just weren't paying
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: attention at all. I did a whole France concession stand.
• 30:19
  Speaker 3: I think I should talk to Monica rather than.
• 30:21
  Speaker 2: You, then.
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: You want to talk to Monica instead of me?
• 30:26
  Speaker 3: Nah I'm just kidding you're the best alright.
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: You sure about that well the best means as good
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: as all the rest as you know alright we'll talk
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: to you next next uh next full moon we'll talk
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: to you okay next full moon yeah alright alright go

  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: Alf says, if the suits at the MLB weren't already
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: in a funk about the World Series market matchup, can
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: you imagine a sweep? Yeah, they got to get, the
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: sweet spot is six games, but they got to get
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: at least five games. They got to get at least
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: five games. Shane in Des Moines writes in, says the
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: Raiders lost to the Rams, but the 49ers lost to Atlanta.
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: Not sure how I feel about this. Goodbye. But not great. Okay, well,
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: you'll have to check with your therapist, Shane, in Des Moines.
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: I can't really help you on that. Let's go to
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: the phones. Let's say hello to Marcel in Brooklyn. Hello, Marcel.
• 31:34
  Speaker 3: Welcome.
• 31:35
  Speaker 2: First of all, Lorena, happy early birthday to you. Right

  Speaker 1: very exciting news. Marcel is such a fan of yours.

  Speaker 1: congratulations on that.
• 31:56
  Speaker 2: Oh, my gosh.
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: Very kind of you, Marcel.
• 31:58
  Speaker 6: Marcel.
• 31:58
  Speaker 2: Way to go. What are you talking about?
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: No, no. Mike the Leprechaun told me that you're buying
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: Lorena a new car. Wow, that's so sweet.
• 32:07
  Speaker 2: Oh, you know what there, Lorena? Break it down for us.
• 32:10
  Speaker 2: And Ben, put Mike the Idiot Con on the phone, please.
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: All right. Mike the Leprechaun.
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: It's Mike the Idiot Con, Ben.
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: Wake up. You gave me the news here, Marcel, getting
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: Lorena a brand new car. And very exciting. Marcel wants
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: to talk to you. Go ahead, Mike the Leprechaun. Say hello.
• 32:26
  Speaker 2: I don't believe it. What you did, Idiot Con. What
• 32:30
  Speaker 2: will you do?
• 32:32
  Speaker 8: I'm very generous, Marcel.
• 32:34
  Speaker 3: Are you a man or a mouse?
• 32:35
  Speaker 2: Not anymore. Decline it right now. Otherwise, Mr. Maller is
• 32:40
  Speaker 2: going to be blocked you and eliminate you for all
• 32:43
  Speaker 2: of this show for all the wrong reasons.
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: Okay, calm down. Everyone calm down.
• 32:49
  Speaker 8: I heard, Marcel, that there's a block party by all
• 32:54
  Speaker 8: the militia. What? The militia had a block party.
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: Marcel, so Mike the Leprechaun sent me a photo, a
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: little video thing, two crockpots of Irish stew. Have you
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: ever had Irish stew?
• 33:09
  Speaker 2: Oh, no. This is completely unacceptable.
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: Well, they make it with little bite-sized pieces of leprechauns
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: in the Irish stew. There's ham, beef, leprechaun, potato, and veggies.
• 33:20
  Speaker 8: And Lucky Charms.
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: Yes, Lucky Charms also.
• 33:24
  Speaker 8: Ew, gross.
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you can get a special flavor. This is Lucky
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: Charms and Leprechauns. Does that cost more, Mike, the Leprechaun?
• 33:30
  Speaker 8: Well, it's a special family recipe, so I can't tell
• 33:33
  Speaker 8: you how much the ingredients cost. Most of them I
• 33:36
  Speaker 8: grew in my backyard, so.
• 33:39
  Speaker 2: This is totally unacceptable, Leprechaun. Shut this down. Otherwise, no
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: more phone calls made for you. You got that?
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: Okay, you're very loud.
• 33:49
  Speaker 8: Lorena, what kind of car would you like?
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: I don't know if I trust you.
• 33:57
  Speaker 8: I'll send you a.
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: He'll get you a Hot Wheels.
• 34:00
  Speaker 8: A Matchbox.
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: He'll get you a Hot Wheels. You can send me
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: an Xbox so I can play the new GTA game.
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: It's not out yet. It doesn't come out November 19th,
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: isn't it, when he comes out, I thought?
• 34:09
  Speaker 2: It's okay.
• 34:09
  Speaker 8: Marcel, Marcel, you're a Libra. Technically, you're at scales and
• 34:15
  Speaker 8: you're imbalanced.
• 34:16
  Speaker 2: Mr. Mauer, can somebody tell Mr. Idiot Khan to shut
• 34:21
  Speaker 2: up and move on to the food pics?
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: Oh, that's right. We've got to get to the food pics.
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: All right, let's do the food pics right now.
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: And let's get into it, too. I have the announcing
• 34:29
  Speaker 2: of your Mauer Militia feud is right.
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: Around the corner. That's right. Very excited about that. By
• 34:33
  Speaker 1: the way, Jamar Chase, he was screaming at halftime, and
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: the media is convinced that he helped spark the Bengals'
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: turnaround in Baltimore. You know what helped the Bengals turn
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: around in Baltimore is Tyler Huntley sucking. That helped. It
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: wasn't Jamar Chase. I always love these stories because if
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: the Bengals had lost that game, it would have been, oh,
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: the Bengals were fighting with each other at halftime, and
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: Jamar Chase is a bad teammate. He was screaming in
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: the locker room, and they don't like each other. But
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: since they won the game, it's like, oh, it was great.
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: All right, let's do food picks. Marcel in Brooklyn last night.
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: It's really a great game. That's why we're doing overnights.
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: I can't think of a better game. What did Marcel
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: in Brooklyn have for dinner last night? I believe Marcel
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: in Brooklyn last night had a... Let's see. How about pizza?
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: I'm going to go with pizza.
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: Guaranteed for that with a mix match.
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: All right.
• 35:24
  Speaker 3: Go ahead, Lorraine.
• 35:25
  Speaker 9: I think you had Thai food, chicken tikka masala and
• 35:28
  Speaker 9: some garlic naan.
• 35:30
  Speaker 2: Ooh, not a mix match.
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: All right, Cooper.
• 35:32
  Speaker 8: Can I think? I think he had rats from New York. Ill.
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: Gross. Get out of here. No, but you cook them.
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: Mike the Leprechaun likes to eat cooked rat. He likes
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: charbroiled rat. You put a little pepper on there and
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: it's fine. All right, go ahead, Coop, please.
• 35:51
  Speaker 9: Okay, first of all, that's not Thai food, Lorena.
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: That's Indian food. Oh, my bad. It's all the same.
• 36:00
  Speaker 9: Second of all, Marcel, I think that you had smokehouse
• 36:03
  Speaker 9: barbecue brisket with Gouda mac and cheese and a honey
• 36:06
  Speaker 9: mustard slaw.
• 36:08
  Speaker 2: Oh, not a mixed fashion is. And Ben, put the
• 36:11
  Speaker 2: smile on your face. Yeah. It is.
