  Speaker 1: kind of storylines, You're like, man, this is great.
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: I have a daily talk show every night.
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: I have to come in new talk radio, and how
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: boring would it be if there was nothing interesting to
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: talk about. So we're going to start out in in Philly,
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: and here we go again. The Eagles continue to be
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: the most disfunctional seven and two team in modern organized football.
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: Now you would think you would.
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: Think the Eagles based on the air around the building,
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: you would think they are two and seven and that
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: the drama is just oozing out.
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: Of the team facility there. It's like a ruptured sewer line.
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: And man, is that great?
• 3:23
  Speaker 4: Boy?
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: I can't tell you how great that is.
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: So if you've not heard the latest on this, if
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: you're not keeping up on it because you actually have
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: a life, perhaps not here.
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: Disgruntled wide receiver A. J. Brown.
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: He jumped on a Twitch stream this week. A lot
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: of our sports news this is something that didn't exist
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: years ago. We get a lot of our sports news
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: on Twitch, guys gaming. That's where we got the famous
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: sound from that World Series stiff for the Dodgers, who
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: mister Blake Snell there, Vassay's buddy who went out there
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: and wrote the vomit common.
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: In the World Series. But it was on Twitch. He said,
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: I ain't playing this again. Mon brawl, just get my
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: life brawl.
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: That was from Twitch. What happening at AJ Brown was
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: on there is playing Madden. You know, that's what all
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: the cool guys do. And then right after the Monday
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: night game, Monday night football game there the day after
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: and he casually, casually made a decree to those that
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: play fantasy football, which is probably you, and the decree
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: was if you got me on fantasy, he said, get
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: rid of me.
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: Now, he was asked about that.
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: He was asked about that, and surprisingly he did not
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: back down. I believe that's the third AJ Brown cut.
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: But here's AJ Brown. He was asked whether or not
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: he's gonna apologize for the comments he made on Twitch,
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: and let's hear what he had to.
• 4:47
  Speaker 5: Say, or you know that in that moment where I'm
• 4:51
  Speaker 5: just talking to my friend, having fun with my friend,
• 4:54
  Speaker 5: I'm not apologizing for it, like like I say, because
• 4:56
  Speaker 5: if you have eyes, you can see that, and so like,
• 4:59
  Speaker 5: it's not that I was throwing anybody on the bus.
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: I'm literally trying to laughter.
• 5:03
  Speaker 5: Oh, but I'm trying to make fun of the situation
• 5:06
  Speaker 5: and to try to get through it.
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: So you know, it is what it is.
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: Yes, it's such a tragedy of humanity and thoughts and
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: prayers to AJ Brown to smile while you don't get
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: targeted enough with the football. It's one of the great
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: American tragedies that we have today. Man, all right, but
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: wait there's more, as every great late night infomercial says,
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: wait there's more. So AJ then stands in front of
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: the locker and continues to wax poetic about the state
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: of the Eagles, even though there's seven and two, the
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: top record in the National Football Conference. He's standing in
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: front of his locker. They're telling reporters that the offense
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: is not they're not doing their job. Do your job,
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: They're not doing their job. And here's Aj Brown, but
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: it's cut one on this.
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: Take a listen.
• 5:56
  Speaker 5: We're really focusing on winning and doing our job, Like
• 6:00
  Speaker 5: we can't just keep slapping the band aid over the
• 6:02
  Speaker 5: defense doing their job and getting us out of trouble.
• 6:05
  Speaker 5: At what point we're gonna pick up box slack as
• 6:08
  Speaker 5: an offense that we're saying we're so great, you know?
• 6:11
  Speaker 5: And that's where I'm getting it. It's not about we're
• 6:14
  Speaker 5: not winning or I don't care about winning. All I
• 6:16
  Speaker 5: care about his steps. No it's been week out the week.
• 6:19
  Speaker 5: Sometimes we're not contributing, we're not doing our job on offense.
• 6:23
  Speaker 5: So you can't just keep slapping a band aid over
• 6:25
  Speaker 5: there and then you strict the win later late in
• 6:27
  Speaker 5: the year and we think you're gonna go to it
• 6:28
  Speaker 5: at the end of the year.
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: It's not gonna all right.
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: There you go, Hey, we've got three bleeps and that's good.
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: All right, So that's a good jumping off points. Just
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: the Eagles offense not doing their job, and of course
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: not about the stats, not about the stats. No, no, no, no, okay.
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: So we'll jump off on that point, and let us
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: discuss the question, what is your read on A. J.
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: Brown and turned I guess whistle blower would be the
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: way we'll describe this. A whistle blower on the Eagles offense,
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: the state of the Philadelphia Eagles the record would indicate
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: very good.
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: AJ. Brown. The way he's sounding not so good.
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: So my thoughts on this, I've got dashboard, hula girl,
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: smoke detector, and camp counselor and we will put all
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: of these things into a food processor and we're gonna
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: make some pure out of this. So a let me
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: begin by saying, God bless AJ Brown. He got paid
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: and he is providing content not for the Eagles, but
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: for gas bags from coast to coast, from seed to
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: Shining Sea. This guy refuses to play nice and I'm
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: here for it. I got buttered popcorn. He is filling
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: up the content machine on a weekly basis.
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: You realize I went back. I looked through my notes.
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: I've gotten at least one AJ Brown monologue in I
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: believe it's eight out of the eleven weeks of the
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: NFL season. That is unbelievable production by AJ Brown. I
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: guess outstanding. Typically headphones to AJ Brown here and so
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: in the cartoon bubble in my head, and you have
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: a different cartoon bubble in your head, because if you're
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: in my head, you're a stucker. But in the cartoon
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: bubble in my head, AJ Brown is driving around in
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: a very expensive automobile with Hannah. Now you know who
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: Hannah is. Hannah is the dashboard hula girl from Arco
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: and he's he's bringing that subty personality where she is.
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: He gets that venturous spirit and pouring gasoline on the
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: Eagles offense there because it's quality, top tier gas for
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: last and stir the pot. Stir the pot. It's not
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: like the locker room already smells like a chemical spill,
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: despite the record. Heck, they need green hazmat suits to
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: go in there, because I mean, there's a toxic plume
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: of green coming out.
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: And shelter in place, order shelter in place.
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: Do not breathe the fubes. Do not breathe the fubs. Now,
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: we love that. AJ admitted that he just he's just
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: reading off the tall points one of the sound bites
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: he gave you, as I said, all the right things
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: after after the game, and uh, and then it still
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: became a story, which means that he went to sportscliche
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: dot com, a website that I have been a contributed
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: to a few times over the years. In fact, my
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: name is in the mentions of people that have contributed
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: content to that website. I love the cliche, I live
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: for the cliche. I love the mockla cliche. So sports
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: dot com and he just copy and pasted some some
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: clips and we just got to execute, you know, move,
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: move on and all that stuff, and so that backfired.
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: So then he just went on Twitch and said what
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: he really felt. Now Page two and the whispers out
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: of Philly. There's another layer to this that the whispers
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: out of Philly say that that Bizarro deep shot on
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: fourth down and six. Remember Monday night, if you saw
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: the whole game, the Eagles had the ball, they had
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: a three point lead. There was about thirty seconds to
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: go in the game. It was fourth down and and
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: at Lambeau and it turns out they they passed and
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: it was not a play according to the whispers from
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: the Eagle locker room. It was not a play that
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: was called by coach Nick Sirianni or the offensive coordinator.
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: The boys decided to freelance it. They ignored the headset,
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: They annoyed the they were annoyed, but they ignored the
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: offensive coordinator, Kevin Pattullo, and the head coach there, and
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: so Jalen Hurts and AJ Brown, I guess they they
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: went rogue, as the report goes, and that the play
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: was incomplete, giving the Packers another shot. Now, now coach
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: Kevin Sirianni, Oh, Kevin sirio A, Nick Siria don't know
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: Kevin maybe his brother Nick Sirianni. So he got into
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: a spirited back and forth with the with the media
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: over the play and the lack of targets.
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: We have some audio on that. I think it's a
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: cut too from Sirianni.
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: But here's Nick Sirianni, and listen to how the temperature
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: gets raised.
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: Take a listen.
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: Approably, we don't have that, but he said, I knew
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: exactly what the play was and that we were calling,
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: and that that was run in the moment, he said.
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: And then the reporter questioned him, and he came back,
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: Sirianni in the Blowbible, he said, wait a minute, is.
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: That a Are we debating?
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: Was the way he answered it, and and so they
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: went back and forth. But it was interesting, are we
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: in a debate? That was the money quote from Nick
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: Sirianni as he shot back. So the question, I wish
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: we had it, but we don't.
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: So what's the temperature in the Eagle coaches room?
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: As Nick Sirianni gets into it with the reporters there
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: and they're questioning the targets for aj Brown and all that,
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: and he comes back and just says, are we in
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: a debate? With the reporter? So the temperature in the
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: room here is it's smoky, it's a little spicy. Sin
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: Fuegel it's making a run to Taco bell at two
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: in the morning, That's what that is. He's an angry
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: bird flapping at the podium. Sirianni there because he knows, right,
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: he knows deep down these guys they tune them out.
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: A lot of players tune out the coaches. But this
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: has been going on for a while now. Instead of
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: just cleaning up the mess, Sirianni gives you that KOI,
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: I knew exactly what the play was, what we called
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: what happened, acting like he's testifying in front of Congress.
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: So instead of just answering the question, now, did Jalen
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: Hurtz and AJ Brown conspire for an audible on that
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: play or not? It's a yes or no situation. Sirianni
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: looked like a guy who was caught trying to fold
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: a fitted sheet.
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: You know, it just didn't really seem like he was happy.
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: He was angry, a little confused, the temperature getting raised there,
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: the sweat blaming the sheet that he was trying to,
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: you know, to put on the bed, and you could
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: hear the fuse burning on him, and this whole AJ
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: Brown thing that this guy's become a walking smoke detector
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: for drama again every week, Beep beet be time to
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: change the battery. That changed another issue, And now Nick
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: Sirianni's sniping at reports.
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: Are we in a debate?
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: Yes, Nick, because your offense looks like it's stuck in molasses.
• 13:38
  Speaker 6: Uh.
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: This team is seven and two and yet it feels
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: like they're hosting the La La Palooza for dysfunction. Every
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: tent is chaos Palooza. The headliner Hurts and Brown, which
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: sounds like a law firm the rogue Sessions. So major,
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: major red flag.
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: On this one.
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: All right, last word, So let's go big picture on
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: this as we continue the theme of the hour.
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: The reigning Super Bowl champions of Pro Football, the Birds.
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: So question thumbs up or thumbs down, thumbs up, thumbs
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: down on the internal angst between AJ Brown, Jalen Hurts,
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: and Nick Sirianni affecting the Eagles long term. All right,
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: so you have to really stretch your imagination on this one. Okay,
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: we'll start with this because they are, as we said,
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: seven and two, and they look like they're being held
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: together by duct tape and a Xanax prescription. So I'm
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: gonna go in terms of the question thumbs up thumbs
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: down to this being this internal issue affecting the Eagles
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: long term. I'm gonna go thumbs up because you know
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: who the Eagles are. The Eagles are like the guy
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: that wins a blackjack tournament. His marriage has collapsed, his
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: car is getting repolled, and the hotel just kicked him
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: out because his credit card no longer works.
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: The scoreboard looks fine, all right. Things are kind of
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: in the dumpster, though.
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: Nick Sirianni standing there like a camp counselor, and he's
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: got It's in the middle of summer.
• 15:19
  Speaker 2: He's a camp counselor.
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: There's no bug spray, and they're getting swarmed by locusts,
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: overwhelmed and clearly not in control.
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: Every win, every wind, comes.
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: With drama, a new league here, a new fight over there,
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: a new cryptic quote.
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: This week we had a new twitch Twitch ray on
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: the video game Pig. So it's the classic.
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: Winning is masking the rot, and there's a lot of rot.
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: It's masking the rod. And it's a nice paint job. Yeah,
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: your house is covered in termites. You want to sell
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: the house, so you put some new dry wall up
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: and you paint the house and you're like, Okay, we're
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: gonna just cover up the termite set we're and the
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: crazy part.
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: I'm sure if you.
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: Said to them behind the scenes, do you think this
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: is gonna work, they say, well, yeah, it's sustainable. I
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: don't think they're lying by that. They believe it's sustainable
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: for them. They're winning through complete dysfunction, and it is
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: impressive and it's deeply stupid at the same time. Dumb
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: d dumb dumb dumbs just fascinating. And the Eagles could have,
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: should have, probably would have traded aj Brown if they
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: had known that this was going to continue. But how
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: could they not know this was going to continue? It
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: has been an ongoing theme that has shadowed the Philadelphia
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: Eagles for the better part of two years now. AJ
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: Brown got there, he got paid, and it's like he's
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: the forgotten man in the offense and it's pretty pretty.
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: Wild, all right, So they think they're gonna be able
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: to get it done.
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: I would bookmarket done this for more than a couple
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: of years now.
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: And this stuff almost always shows up in January, and
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: then when.
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: You finally lose in the playoffs, it's where the poop
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: hits the fan and there's poop in the air everywhere,
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: and all the dirty laundry comes out.
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: I didn't like that. Guy didn't like that. I'm pointing
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: fingers over here.
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: And the Eagles, they are a playoff team built on
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: what built on passive, aggressive comments, burner accounts, and rogue
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: fourth down audibles, it would appear, So what could possibly
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: go wrong? What could possibly go wrong with all of
• 17:34

  Speaker 2: Back to it all, right, back to it we go,
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: and a programming note now, you will likely be.
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: Long gone, long long gone by the time we get

  Speaker 1: to our three. However, you can go back and hear
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: on the podcast we have ask Ben. Ask Ben your
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: questions and our answers that'll be coming up in hour three.
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: You can send those in now, you can send.
• 20:56
  Speaker 2: Them in later.
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: And it is a grab bag type thing.
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: No guarantee gets read. And some of you have been
• 21:04
  Speaker 2: emailing me. It's only the three four people of their questions, right.
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: I don't pick the questions to get read. I have
• 21:11
  Speaker 2: nothing to do with that. So you should really complain
• 21:13
  Speaker 2: to Coop.
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: I don't have anything to do. It's like I just
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: answer the question. So but if you send them in
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: hashtag ask Ben. And I've noticed the people that are
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: the most annoying normally get their questions read. So it's
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: not that i want you to be annoying. I'm just
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: pointing that out. We began this hour with the AJ
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: Brown drama O rama, always fun, always fun.
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: Philadelphia a great record.
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: You look at your NFL standings and there the Eagles
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: are right near the top of the NFC and all
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: of the NFL, and yet AJ Brown not pleased at all.
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: With the Eagles offense.
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: And when you dig a little bit deeper, When you
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: dig a little bit deeper, it is completely understandable why
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: AJ Brown is upset. He's getting paid a lot of
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: money and all. That's great and wonderful, But if you
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: look at the passing offense, which is what he's part of, right,
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: the passing offense of the Philadelphia Eagles, they are actually
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: a little bit better than they were last year. The
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: Eagles won the Super Bowl last season and they had
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: the thirtieth ranked passing offense, which I'm told is not good.
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: I'd have to check with some of those TV guys
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: to see, but they were thirtieth out of thirty two
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: teams last year they won the Super Bowl.
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: That Skwan Barkley was out of his mind. The defense
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: was amazing.
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: This year, the Eagles passing offense is ranked twenty fifth
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: in the NFL.
• 22:38
  Speaker 2: That is behind.
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: The fossil that is Aaron Rodgers. That is behind to
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: a tongue Bay Lois Miami Dolphins. That is not good.
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: That is not good.
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: But that's where Philadelphia finds himself. So they're twenty fifth
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: in the NFL this year. And A. J.
• 22:52
  Speaker 2: Brown's like, Hey what about me?
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: Three Yeah, got birds. That's go birds, my mayor, that's
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: my mayor. I don't live in Philadelphia, but I lived
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: in Philly. That would be my mayor absolutely. Now for
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: years it was always was as long as you target
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: the receiver, they'll be happy. It was the famous one
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: of the great books of our time. People talk about
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: the great books that have written written. Most people will
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: say the Bible's up there, But how about the Keyshawn
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: Johnson book, Give me the damn ball right?
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: That was? That was outstanding, just absolutely outstanding. So he's like, okay,
• 23:31
  Speaker 2: so you got this guy AJ.
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: Brown, and he's again he was like a thirty million
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: dollar guy a year somewhere in that ballpark, good tax bracket.
• 23:39
  Speaker 2: And all that stuff. And so you look at like, okay,
• 23:42
  Speaker 2: so where is he at?
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: AJ Brown? Is he He's got to be in like
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: the top twenty in targets? Right, No, no, no, he's
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: not our top twenty five. How about top No, no,
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: not tope top definitely top thirty, right, it's got to
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: be in the top thirty, yes, right, and no he's not, okay,
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: top thirty five. Do I hear top thirty five?
• 24:06
  Speaker 8: No?
• 24:06
  Speaker 5: Aared?
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: How about top forty do I hear?
• 24:09
  Speaker 7: No?
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he's ranked tied for forty third in targets this season?
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: Is where AJ Brown is among the players that have
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: more targets. Harold fannin junior, who's a tight end for
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: the Cleveland Browns. The Great Dalton Schultz of the Houston
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: Texans has more. Jowan Johnson a tight end of your
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: New Orleans Saints.
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: What else?
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: I mean, let's see a big boy Quentin Johnston of
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: the Chargers. Jerry Judy of the Cleveland Browns has more.
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: Now the Marching and Chowder Society for the Philadelphia Eagles
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: will say, well, the Eagles have had the lead, They've
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: been winning these games.
• 24:47
  Speaker 2: They have a good running game. They don't throw as
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: much when you're in the lead.
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: I would argue, though, that even in today's NFL, it's
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: been this way for several years, they still throw even
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: when they have the lead. It's not like they stop
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: throwing the ball. That's all they can do. They just
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: throw shorter passes, but they're still throwing the ball. So
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: it is interesting. Let's see what else do we have.
• 25:09
  Speaker 2: Let's go to the X machine. We read a lot
• 25:11
  Speaker 2: of these.
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: Comments on X at Ben mallor that's at Ben mallor
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: see what do we have here?
• 25:19
  Speaker 2: Page down?
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: Andy and Lino Lakes, Minnesota says a plus on the
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: opening Mallard monologue, The Dysfunction Junction. Thank you we a plus,
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: he says on the valid monologue The Dysfunction Junction Train,
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: We'll be pulling in on week seventeen, right on schedule,
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: and we'll forget all about this drama a rama.
• 25:40
  Speaker 2: I'm not gonna forget about it. I'm not what else
• 25:44
  Speaker 2: do we have?
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: Super Marcus Steve, who complains about everything, says, thanks for
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: finally posting the rundown. Now I can see what other
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: monologues you have planned for tonight. I'm really interested to
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: hear the Jamis Winston monologue. Later on, I was convinced
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: we never have another Jamis monologue. Well your dream have
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: come true. Yes, Doc Dan the Great Die. We used
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: to have Doc Mike in Chicago, but he's been replaced
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: by Doc Dan in Minnesota. And Doc Dan says betting
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: sites should take bets on AJ Brown example, will he
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: complain before or after.
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: Wednesday this week?
• 26:20
  Speaker 7: All right?
• 26:20
  Speaker 2: Supermarket Seve also wrote back.
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: He said AJ Brown complaining about something is kind of
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: old news. I'm wondering, he says, Oh, he's he was
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: complaining about the rundown. Ferk Dok says, would anyone care
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: if the NBA season was canceled and the Thunder were
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: handed another title. They just completely poll axe the Lakers.
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: I don't think anyone can beat them.
• 26:41
  Speaker 2: Eh.
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: I had that on the back, but that was a
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: epic beat down. That was How bad was that lost
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: by the Lakers?
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: Now again, I don't I had at all.
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: I was really paying that close attention to it, because
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: why would you. They were doing extended garbage time, Mike
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: Breen was doing filler in the third quarter, and they're
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: trying to get people to watch. But it was so bad.
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: People are saying, is Luca back on the hookah? Is
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: he back to being hookah? Luca as the Laker?
• 27:08
  Speaker 2: That was not just it lost.
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: That was a Mollywop situation by OKC, and I thought
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: that all you Laker guys said this is legit and
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: they don't need Lebron and the Lakers are wonderful.
• 27:20
  Speaker 2: And raw ra team.
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: I got emails from people I said, well, you know, listen,
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: this Luca's taken over. Now, he's in shape. The Lakers
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: are great, They're wonderful. No one can stop the Lakers.
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: All this stuff. Well, I guess Oklahoma City did not
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: get that message. And that was a what was the
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: final score, one twenty one to ninety two, just your
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: casual one twenty one to ninety two game, a game
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: the Thunder led.
• 27:47
  Speaker 2: By thirty seven points, thirty seven points at one point.
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: And I go back to the comments of the late
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: great Bill Fitch, who taught me about poor basketball as
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: a young reporter. And Bill Fitch many teams in the
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: NBA by that point, and he pointed out that if
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: you play hard and you play defense, you'll never lose
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: a game by twenty or more points. You'll have a
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: chance the way the league is designed to have a.
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: Chance to win in the fourth quarter.
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: You probably won't win if you're not as talented, but
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: you'll have a chance. And if you don't play hard,
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: if you're bummed out because there's no good places to
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: go out and drink in Oklahoma City, I guess at
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: night or no no good clubs or whatever, you're bummed out.
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: You're an OKAC and you go out there because go
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: over to Kyrie's house, our buddy Kyrie in Okac, he's
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: a big Thunder guy. He'll go at your party at
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: the place to anyway, there you go. And the Lakers
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: were outscored by thirty one points with Luke on the
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: court thirty five points with Ruy Hashimura. So Ye not
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: doing any basketball monologues unless there's a scandal. If we
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: have a scandal, I'm in on the basketball monologues.
• 28:50
  Speaker 2: We need a good scandal.
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: Eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox is the number.
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: Let's go now to the state of Florida. Man that
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: survived a heart attack and is now trying to survive,
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: have another one. Jed who fled, Hello, Jed who fled Welcome.
• 29:05
  Speaker 4: My dad has just got a road to TV.
• 29:09
  Speaker 6: And as the.
• 29:10
  Speaker 4: Longest we'll say, longest unemployed member of my family, it's
• 29:13
  Speaker 4: my job since my mother passed back in April, to
• 29:16
  Speaker 4: be with him during the day and everything. As long
• 29:18
  Speaker 4: as you promised not to mention me, and that sounds crazy,
• 29:21
  Speaker 4: we will be subscribing to Bennie versus the Penny. But
• 29:24
  Speaker 4: if you're like, why would I mention you, I don't know.
• 29:26
  Speaker 4: Probably because I'm smarter and intellectually with you than Timeline
• 29:30
  Speaker 4: he could ever be, and I dress better and you
• 29:31
  Speaker 4: might reference that, but but I don't do that, and
• 29:34
  Speaker 4: I'm gonna subscribe it. You've got another subscriber. Now, let
• 29:37
  Speaker 4: me tell you what I was doing. I was manscaping,
• 29:39
  Speaker 4: and that man, that monologue was so seductively smooth that
• 29:42
  Speaker 4: I didn't nick myself wanting while I was manscaping. And
• 29:45
  Speaker 4: that is the first if you're listening to the Ben
• 29:47
  Speaker 4: Miler Show for the first time or one of the
• 29:49
  Speaker 4: first times, you have been blessed by whatever God you
• 29:52
  Speaker 4: believe in, Because this is not some sort of legal
• 29:54
  Speaker 4: leaves each month, each monologue is the best, Each monologue
• 30:00
  Speaker 4: is better than the one before it, and will continue
• 30:02
  Speaker 4: to be better. And if you doubt that, don't ask
• 30:05
  Speaker 4: Justice Cooper or Lelaya. Possibly maybe ask them about a
• 30:08
  Speaker 4: good mood. Ask Ben Maller. He will guarantee every monologue
• 30:12
  Speaker 4: is better than the one before it. Speak of that
• 30:14
  Speaker 4: monologue and an appropriate transition, Man.
• 30:17
  Speaker 6: What appropriate transition it is?
• 30:18
  Speaker 4: It's a strange bird.
• 30:20
  Speaker 6: R ade Bobby bowdenfields at don't talpje Campbell Stadium needs
• 30:26
  Speaker 6: to be raised, all right, let's it be of R
• 30:29
  Speaker 6: A D D raised to the ground.
• 30:32
  Speaker 4: What does that mean?
• 30:33
  Speaker 6: No, kids, that doesn't mean we're gonna build it up.
• 30:35
  Speaker 4: We're gonna cut this thing down from the foundation and
• 30:38
  Speaker 4: burn it to the ground, Mike Novel. I'm sorry you
• 30:42
  Speaker 4: came in after Willie Taggart's and it made it look
• 30:44
  Speaker 4: like you deserved a huge buyout or a huge contract
• 30:48
  Speaker 4: extension because of the competent terribleness of the coach before you.
• 30:53
  Speaker 4: Oh my god, dude, I was in that I was
• 30:54
  Speaker 4: in that boat, but I don't I know that for
• 30:57

• 31:00
  Speaker 4: I was swimming away from the Mike Yail vote Mike
• 31:02
  Speaker 4: Mike norvail boat. I started swimming away from the nunciation
• 31:06
  Speaker 4: on the radio boat as well, and I'm trying to
• 31:08
  Speaker 4: stay in that boat as much as possible. Ben a
• 31:12
  Speaker 4: great monologue, and one in a perfect transition I made
• 31:15
  Speaker 4: to Florida State football. There's no football. There's professional play
• 31:18
  Speaker 4: to night, so we could talk about it.
• 31:20

  Speaker 2: Now though, for the who am I?
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: Game?
• 33:18
  Speaker 2: And this is where we pretend to be somebody else else,
• 33:20
  Speaker 2: We call it the who am I?
• 33:21
  Speaker 6: Game?
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: Well, I just did say so. Seahawks star Jackson Smith
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: o Jigba. Again, we have a theory here and I
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: believe we're right. If you have a name that is
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: not part of the mainstream, a name that is difficult
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: to pronounce, you have to be really really good for
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: people to know your your pronunciation. Like Jianna said Ninda Kombo.
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: When he first started, he was just called people call
• 33:43
  Speaker 1: him the Greek Free because nobody knew to pronounce it.
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: He became great and people learned how to pronounce his name.
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: And Seahawks star Jackson Smith in Jigba, who the Injigba
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: part would be the part where people are and what
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: is that? But Jackson Smith and Jiggba has been wonderful
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: for Seattle. He has one thousand and four forty one
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: receiving yards on just two hundred and twenty six roots
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: or routes run this season. The proper pronunciation is roots,
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: marking the fewest roots for a one thousand yard season
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: since twenty fourteen, So over over a decade, I am
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: the next closest in that last period, last decade or so.
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: Who am I? Well, that was the question, who am I?

• 36:23
  Speaker 1: one receiving yards and he's only had two hundred and
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: twenty six.
