  Speaker 1: tire raq dot com. The Way Tire Buying Show be
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: so our lead. This hour is from Indianapolis. We're not
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: gonna talk about the Indianapolis five No, no, no, No
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: Quarterback carousel. Quarterback carousel update. If you have not heard
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: the drama, I'm not gonna say the drama Orama because
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: this was not drama Orama. The news is in. The
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: decision has been made. And if you thought that Anthony
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: Richardson was going to continue as QB number one in Indianapolis,
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: you're a loser. As Anthony Richardson has done the walk
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: of shame. He has been demoted, benched. See you later.
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: Alligator coach Shane Steiken, in a moment that no coach
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: wants to highlight, named Giants trash Daniel Jones. Daniel Jones
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: as the starting quarterback in Indianapolis. That's it. That's the story.
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: Daniel Jones beats out Anthony Richardson, who was a top
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: five draft pick a couple of years ago and has
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: now been usurped by Daniel Jones. All right, so let
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: us discuss the question. Let me check the water temperature,
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: if you will, uh for the Colt fan? What is
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: the temperature for the cult fan on Daniel Jones being
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: named QB one? You excited about this? All right? So
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: my observations, I've got Morton's fork, snuffle upfagus, and tinder date,
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: and we will combine all of these things together, and
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: we are going to make some grilled chicken and rice
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: is what we're gonna make you eat healthy. So number
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: that number goes out to Sherwin. That's for that. Number
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: one was for Sherwin. So the water temperature here is lukewarm. Lukewarm.
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: That's the water temperature. If you've got a tingly sensation
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: about Annual Jones being named QB number one, if you've
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: got that, that's not excitement, Okay, it's not. That's something
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: you should probably call the doctor about. If you've got
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: a tingley feeling about that, this is a Morton's fork situation.
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: If you don't know what that is, google it. That's
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: where you're stuck choosing between two equally unpleasant unpleasant alternatives.
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: And so it got me thinking, it's like when I
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: was seven years old, little fat Benny at the dinner
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: table with Mama Malor and my pops and my brother,
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: you know, and at seven, I didn't have another I
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: didn't have a younger brother. I was the youngest kid,
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: and my younger brother came after that, a little seven
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: year old kid there, and I'm sitting down at dinner
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: and the mom says, my mom said, hey, I been
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: good news. We are done trying to get your fat
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: ass to eat broccoli at dinner. And I light up.
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: I smile at my mom. I say, finally, here, I
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: am seven years years old, seven years old, and my
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: mom is giving me respect. That's a good mom. And
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: so I sit there and I got a smile, kind
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: of a smirk. I say, thank god, Mom, this is
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: so great. You're my favorite mom. You're my only mom,
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: but you're my favorite mom. And then my mom said, well,
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: we're gonna start serving cauliflower instead. I inside, I die,
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: I absolutely die, right because that blows too right, that sucks.
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: And that's what this is. That that's what this is. Right,
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: This is not this is not a ribbi. This is
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: not a ribbi. This is the steam vegetables that you
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: don't want. That's what this is. And don't forget like
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: the ultimate embarrassment, the ultimate. You name Daniel Jones, You're
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: starting quarterback in Indianapolis, and this is the guy that
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: lost his job with the Giants to Tommy DeVito. Okay,
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: now remember Tommy DeVito's like a character actor in the Sopranos.
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: Is what he's like. He is Tommy Cutlets. That's the
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: guy that ended up being the quarterback for the Giants
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: with Daniel Jones left town demoted for Tommy Cutlets, and
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: Jones could not hold off the immensibility of Tommy DeVito,
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: who looked and still to this day looks like he
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: should be serving chicken palm at his uncle's restaurant somewhere
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: in Hobulka, New Jersey. But yet he was the quarterback
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: for the Giants and replaced Daniel Jones. And so us now,
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: has Danny Dimes ever, let me ask you this, has
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: he ever made anyone better that he played with? Now
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: he has been sputtering for years, and the Giants kept
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: playing him because they were like, well, we have to
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: salvage Daniel Jones. So they changed players around him, they
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: changed coaches, the whole thing right, and the one consistent,
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: the common denominator in Daniel Jones is the bonehead play
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: very good at that. His internal clock has been broken
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: and it runs about as fast he processes the defensive
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: alignment about as fast as you move through the line.
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: Without a reservation of the DMV. It doesn't go very well.
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: And so you know, there's just no warm and fuzzy.
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: There's no warman, there's no good way this could come
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: out for the Colts. There's not. You can try to
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: talk yourself into it, be a big fanboy and say,
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: oh yeah, this is great. Now does this quarterback decision?
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: Does it change the colts ceiling in twenty twenty five? No,
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: it doesn't. That they're still barreling down the highway. The
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: highway to Hell is where they're going. I mean, they
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: just are. And if everything breaks perfectly, I mean, the
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: running game is good, and you know they stay relatively healthy.
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: No one stays completely other. But you say relatively healthy,
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: you somehow put a pretty good defense together there in Indy.
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: The off defensive line doesn't fold up like a beach
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: chair on a fat guy sitting on a beach chair.
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: Then what are your max out at? What's the max
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: on that? What is this? This is a average avenue.
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: You're driving down average avenue. You get to eight wins? Woo,
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: you got eight wins? Okay, nine wins, maybe nine wins, Okay,
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: nine and eight. That's the tops right there. Of course
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: your ceiling is nine and eight. Okay, So let's think
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: this through the basement. What is the basement? It is
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: possible this team does not win a game. Okay, It's
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: not like your quarterback's gonna bail you out. So it's
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: there is a world, the dimension of the multiverse where
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: the Colts don't win a game, all right now, page two.
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: So there's been a lot of this is unfair, this
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: is not right commentary for Anthony Richardson. Let's hear from
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: the the man himself.
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: Here.
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: Here's Anthony Richardson, the former starting quarterback for the Indianapolis Colts,
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: the chosen one, who has now been the demogent one.
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: Here's his takee on being kicked to the curb.
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: You gotta respect it, just said, you know, for like
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: how he's a better fit for the thing, better fit
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: for the outcome of us winning. So you've got to
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: respect it. And the sheep working. You know that the
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: under my other work out, but the end of it,
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: you know. But I say that I have to improve,
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: you know, my product. Improvement I made. Saying the dogs
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: on a part of that. So you gotta keep stacking
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: on that if hee be better.
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: So we had the microphone who was actually placed in Gary, Indiana?
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: Not in Indianapolis? Or was that South Bend, Indiana? Okay, I'm
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: wearned headphones. I could barely make that out. That was bad.
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: Why do we play it because we had it? That's
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: why we played it. We played it because we had it,
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: and we played it because we had it.
• 9:46
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: I don't even know what he said. I do know
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: that Richardson's agent reacted with disappointment. Shocking. He would be
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: just disappointed as client has been benched. So he what upset?
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: Said that he's unsure of Richardson's future with the Colts. Well,
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: so are the Colts take a number now? The agent
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: Derek washed Derek Jackson Derek Jackson. I believe that's his name.
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: I've never heard of him. So he wondered aloud whether
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: or not to Shane Steikn's quarterback decison. His decision might
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: have been predetermined when the Colts signed Daniel Jones back
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: in March to a one year contract for fourteen million dollars.
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: So let's discuss. That's a good jumping off point. Did
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: Anthony Richardson get a raw deal? Did he get a
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: raw deal from Indy? So let's think about that. Right,
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: the jury is in and I've got two letters to
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: the judge. N oh no, Now, this was predetermined, but
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: it was not predetermined when Daniel Jones signed the contract.
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: In fact, as a distant relative of nostredwe friend of Nostradinas.
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: He lives in Seattle, Seattle area. This was predetermined. It
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: was not because of Daniel Jones signing on the dotted
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: line this. Let me tell you, they could have signed,
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: as my advisor Alf would say, the Alien Pinter, they
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: could have signed mister Snuffalopogus. Signed mister Snuffalopogus and he
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: would be named the started quarterback for the Indianapolis Colts.
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: I know the exact date It was October twenty seventh,
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: twenty twenty four. It was week eight of the NFL season,
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: two undred ninety seven days ago exactly from that point
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: to the time the Colts made the decision, So two
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: hundred ninety seven days it was in Houston, Texas. That
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: was the moment, just a moment in time, just a snapshot.
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: And in that moment in time, that is when Anthony
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: Richardson himself asked to be demoted as the QB number
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: one in Indianapolis. He tapped out, he said, no, Moss,
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: I'm done, Skis, I'm out of here. I can't play.
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: He wasn't injured, he was gassed, he was not in shape.
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: He pulled himself out of the game. That in that
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: business is a capital offense. And he did it, and
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: he didn't hide it. He talked about it openly. He
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: didn't try to pretend like he did something else. He
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: just said, this is what I did. Can't do it,
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: cannot do it. That's a no fly zone. And you
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: did it. That's high crimes and misdemeanors. That's you know,
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: that's a felony, is what that is. And you incriminated
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: yourself and once you quit once you say that's it.
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: Once you quit on yourself like that in that profession
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: the coach, but more importantly, your teammates you're done because
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: they also would like to come out of the game
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: like the people playing it, like it's paying the ass man.
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: You get to the second half of an NFL game,
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: you're getting your ass you handed to you, and you'd
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: like to step out of the game. But you have
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: a job to do and you're paid to be a
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: top flight professional athlete, and it's all about the grind, right,
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: that's the whole point to the war of attrition. But
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: you don't take yourself out of the war because you're
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: tired and he did it. You can't forgive that. You don't.
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: It's like when you call in sick. It's like the
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: equivalent in the real world. If you call in sick,
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: it's oh, man, I'm dying, dude, and you call your boss.
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: I'm your texting me. I can't show up, just I'm
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: not doing good and I feel horrific. I gotta go
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: to the doctor. I got to get some medicine. And
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: then they see you. They're scrolling on Instagram and they
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: see you in a swimsuit on the beach and you're
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: tricking a cocktail. They don't look at you the same.
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: They don't believe you. Yeah, they don't trust you. You're
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: out of the bubble of trust. And so that's the issue.
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: You're out of the bubble of trust. And look, Jerry
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: Glanville is you. Probably is if you're of a certain age.
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: But he was this old NFL coach, you a million
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: years ago coach the Atlanta Falcons and some other teams.
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: And Jerry glab said decades ago, the NFL stands for
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: not not for long. And certainly when you do that,
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: Richardson leaning leaning into that, and he learned the hard away.
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: He learned the hard way, a tough love. Rob Richardson
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: was never ever supposed to be the guy. That's the
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: thing about this, Like everyone talks about, there's a lot
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: of people get oh, this is not fair, this is
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: not right, blah blah blah blah blah blah blah ba.
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: He was never supposed to be drafted there in the
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: first place. He should have been picked in the fourth
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: or the fifth round, and he ended up going in
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: the top five. It was a total project from the beginning. Now,
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: you know how I feel about the draft. I'd rather
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: have dysentery than do draft shows. At this point, it's
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: all the scam, it's all the hustle. And instead of
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: being drafted where you'd say, well he's a developmental player. Now,
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: Jim Mercy, the late Jim mrsays ah, we'll take him.
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: It's like a make a wish situation and let's let's
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: take this. Get all give him a shot at quarterback.
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: They did. They give him a shot, and Richardson played
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: like a guy that won a raffle, you know, at
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: a country fair. You know, it's a congratulations. Way to go.
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: You're the starting quarterback of the Indianapolis Coast. The only problem,
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: of course, this was not a raffle. It was the NFL.
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: The results bear out. Now, there were two things that
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: Anthony Richardson was truly a lead at. There were two
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: things Anthony Richardson was elite at getting hurt. That was,
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: he was next level superstar, next level superstar getting hurt.
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: And what's the old line, You could not hit the
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: broadside of a barn, you have no accuracy. He was
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: essentially Tim Tebow level accuracy. He was unplayable in the
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: modern NFL. But like fifty percent completions are below most
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: of the games, and that's it. So it's not a
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: raw deal. It's not. I mean, it was a natural
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: conclusion that anyone with half a brain who's not a
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: fanboy would have made. He didn't get screwed. In fact,
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: if anything, he was given an opportunity he did not deserve.
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: Richardson that he should have never been a QB one
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: for the Colts because he didn't deserve that based on
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: his crappy college career. And then he proved that the
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: people that were critics were right. The critic was right
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: on this one. Could never throw accurately, couldn't stay healthy,
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: and pulled himself out of the game. Strike one, strike two,
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: strike three, batter out, batter out. So Richardson didn't get
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: screwed by the Colts. He screwed himself. He's essentially what
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: he did all right now, final points staying with the horseshoes.
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: Why not? So a couple of you idiots sent me
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: this quote. It's just going I guess it's been going
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: around last coupleause I didn't see it until in the
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: nighttime hour. So Andrew Locke popped up again. I haven't
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: really thought about Andrew Luck in a long time. Why
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: would I washed up athlete? I don't really think about
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: those guys much anyway, Anthony richards or Andrew will Luck.
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: Why Athinky Richardson soon enough will be the washed up athlete.
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: But get your crappy Colts quarterbacks?
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: Right?
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: So Andrew Luck popped up again. He was talking about
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: his retirement, and this was behind a paywall on the
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: Athletic and he said, quote, I was going to play
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: until forty or fifty. I thought I was invincible. And
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: then he said I fell out of love. I always
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: have guilt. He said, I let my teammates down. Close quote. So,
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: Andrew Luck, who famously you talk about the Colts have
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: really done good at getting guys that quit, Like Anthony
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: Richardson quit. He quit during a game. Andrew Luck Well
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: kind of quit during a game too. It was a
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: preseason game, but he quit. They're really good. They lead
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: the NFL and quitters Colts football. Wee raft guys that quit,
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: all right, So that'd be a good slogan.
• 17:46
  Speaker 4: Huh.
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: So is Andrew Luck saying that he let his teammates
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: down justified all these years later on his Colts retirement.
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: So I'm nodding my head. Yes, I'm nodding my Yes.
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: He's one hundred percent right in Luck did let them down.
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: He did. This is what I said. I got killed
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: for this. Take This is take validation. That's why I'm
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: bringing this up. It's Mallard take validation. So I said
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: this at the time as quitter. What you can't do that?
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: What are you doing? And you step away in March,
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: you say I'm done in April, even if you wait
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: till May. I'm good. I'm fine, you know, because I'm
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: really the judge, jury and execution, and I'm fine with that.
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: When you have the overnight bully pulpit, those are those
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: are decisions you make. So I'm okay with that. But
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: at the eleventh hour, just a couple of weeks before
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: the season kicks off, is not the time nor the
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: place to say I'm out. See you later, suckers. Uh No,
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: that's like telling your fiance on the way down the
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: aisle with everyone. They're all dressed up in their their
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: church clothes. Right, everyone's all dressed up, and by the way, surprise,
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: I'm out. Good Luck. You know you can't know Luck.
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: And by the way, it was a basketball player named
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: Richard Jefferson, who I think's on network television now who
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: did that. He famously did that anyway, So he didn't
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: just Andrew Luck didn't just screw over. He didn't just
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: screw over the team, the coaching staff, the fan. That's
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: the part that I had a problem with. Do you
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: announce that you have to pay a lot of money
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: for these season tickets? Now I'm not a season ticket older,
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: but I have friends of mine to buy the tickets
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: in the very expensive right. You got to give deposits
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: and all that stuff. And he basically ghosted the entire franchise,
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: like the Colts. It was like a bad tender date.
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: And he's like, I ain't gonna ghost this person. And
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: don't even give him the excuse that you had to
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: dog sit or something like that. You just like, I'm out,
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: I'm done, and you just ghost just disappear. So no
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: SOB story, right as far as it's I don't want
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: to hear about guilt. That to me, that's a SOB store.
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: The whole guilt things a SOB story. Andrew and people
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: were trying to make him the victim. I know, we
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: live in the age much anymore. Last couple years. But
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: it was like everyone's a victim for like ten years.
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: Everyone's a victim. I my god, drives me nuts. But
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: there are real victims. But Andrew Luck was not the
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: victim right. In fact, anything the guilt he should have guilt.
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: He was the guy at the bar, right He was
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: out there with his teammates at the bar and he
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: ducked out of the restaurant before the check showed up,
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: after having a bunch of booze and a bunch of apps,
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: you know, appetizers and all that's I'm out. And the
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: franchise has never recovered. I mean they are still feeling
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: the facts all these years later. There were years ironed
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: from boots on the ground that Jim, the late Jim
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: Mersey was convinced that Andrew Luck, Yeah, he'd come back
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: in two years and he didn't come back. And they
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: tried to They were like, well, well, just Andrew Luck
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: has a house. I don't know if he still does.
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: I know he's doing stuff for Stanford, but he lived
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: in retirement down the street from the Colts practice facility
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: because he thought, you know, they thought, well he lives here,
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: he's gonna come back and play quarterback quotes, and he
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: never did. And so they've had I had this like
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: Broadway casting call the Colts where they had Philip Rivers
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: and they had Carson Wentz and Matt Ryan and they
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: had this suck bag Anthony Richardson who quit. Now they
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: have Daniel Jones, who people hope will quit. And so
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: it's like those guys don't belong on Broadway. They belong
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: at like the Fargo Theater. Shout out to our guys
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: in Fargo, North Dakota. Come on, you know these are
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: not leading, legitimate and you have a bunch of washed
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: up guys and never was, never were good players. And
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: those are the guys at the front. I mean, the
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: franchise is still chasing its tail because one guy quit
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: at the most inconvenient possible time to quit. And that's
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: Andrew Luck's legacy. That's it. That's the legacy of Andrew Luck.
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: Forget the stats, forget all the promise and oh he's
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: gonna be amazing the full monte. He bailed at the
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: worst possible time and left everyone else holding the bag. Fans, teammates, coaches, everyone.
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: It is the Ben Mallor Show. If you would like
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: to be part you can join us eight seven seven

  Speaker 1: by the way, Brian No the No Show will be
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: there as well. Possibly Bernie Fratto might make an appearance.
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: I was wondering if he was. There's even speculation that
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: Wreckett Ralph might show up. Fox Sports Radio alumni remember
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: Wrecket Ralph. So we'll see it. Didn't he come last time?
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: He did? Five minutes? Well, yeah, he showed up because
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: one of his buddies is a big fan of the show,
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: and he was he was he was very upset by
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: that that he he and the guy was really he
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: lived in like Reno, and I don't know he'll be
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: there again, but he he came down and then Ralph
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: showed up, and then I think Ralph was disgusted by
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: the other people. So I think that was the show.
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: I back to it, all, right, back to it. We
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: go fired up for Vegas this weekend and we'll be
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: are we all going earlier as just some of us
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: are going early. I don't know, we're all everything.
• 25:05
  Speaker 8: We're leaving Thursday.
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: We're all going early.
• 25:07
  Speaker 4: I want to join you in the studio.
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: Well, I don't even know. Bring my headphone. Really, you'll
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: bring your headphones, okay, all right, don't you want to
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: go out and party or something like that. You know
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: I will not be joining you in. You're more than welcomer, right.
• 25:18
  Speaker 8: Due to the circumstances of the show being in Vegas
• 25:22
  Speaker 8: and doing the the meet and greet, I think it
• 25:24
  Speaker 8: would just be proper.
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: Okay, all right, well, very very good, We'll have you
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: come back. I've not I've heard the studio changed. It
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: was the old studio. Harmon was telling me, the great
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: Mike Harmon, he's worked out of the Vegas studio. That's
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: a new studio, which I'm excited about because the old
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: studio we did in Vegas was in a very bad
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: part of town, Like there were warehouses. You could see
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: the strip off in the distance, like this glowing Neon
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: sign of greatness, and you were surrounded by it was
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: like doing the show from here almost in the distance. Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly.
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: It was like you're surrounded by you know, it's like
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: slum lord. Hear that, right?
• 25:59
  Speaker 5: Though?
• 25:59
  Speaker 8: There was a white castle nearby.
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Harmon was very excited about the white castle. White castle,
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: and the cool thing is getting getting done with the show.
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: We will still be able to go out and like, uh,
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: you know, it'll be late, but Vegas stuff will be
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: open anyway. So I'll be coming up this Weekend's all
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: the phones, and I mean, I don't know if he'll
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: be there. He was at the meet and greet last year.
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: And this guy you talk about being a chameleon who
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: changes his appearance. Let's say hello now to our friend Salsa. Hello, Salsa, Welcome.
• 26:35
  Speaker 4: Good evening. Then what's going on Buddy Raina and Cooper?
• 26:40
  Speaker 4: So then I am deep in the heart of Texas history.
• 26:43
  Speaker 4: But it's not technically the heart of Texas. It's only
• 26:45
  Speaker 4: an out from the border of Oklahoma. So how's that
• 26:48
  Speaker 4: deep in the heart of Texas?
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: This is a good question. So I'm I've always heard
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: Dallas is deep in the heart of Texas. But then
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: there was a famous guy. Okay, calm down, but it
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: wasn't It's based on a song, Isn't it based on
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: a song that said? Is correct? Okay? So all you
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: have to do, Salsa is write a song that says,
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: what would be deep in THEO? Would Houston Houston's further in?
• 27:14
  Speaker 7: Right?
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: Would Houston be deep in the heart of Texas.
• 27:17
  Speaker 4: Incorrect. Also, Houston is close to the Gulf of Mexico.
• 27:20
  Speaker 4: The actual heart of Texas is a place called Brady, Texas.
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: That night a biggin brouh There you go, Susa, deep
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: in the heart of Texas. Well as you know Salsa.
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: You've been a listener for a long time. When the
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: legend becomes the fact, you go with the legend. The
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: legend is the heart of Texas is in Dallas, that
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: is correct. So you go with the legend the man
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: that shot Liberty valance, of course, and so there you go. Now,
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: so last time we saw you, we didn't We didn't
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: recognize you. You look like you had won the New
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: York Marathon. So if you I don't know if you're
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: going to be in Vegas or not. But next time
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: we see you, are you going to now be like
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: seven hundred pounds?
• 28:00
  Speaker 4: I still look exactly the same as you saw me
• 28:03
  Speaker 4: last year?
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: Okay, all right, fair enough.
• 28:06
  Speaker 4: You know I had a plant actually scheduled to Medihen
• 28:10
  Speaker 4: for this weekend, so I'm kind of what.
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: Are you going there for?
• 28:15
  Speaker 4: Huh yeah, Columbia.
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Well, I don't blame you for going there instead
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: of to hang out with.
• 28:26
  Speaker 4: However, I do want to make that and I could
• 28:29
  Speaker 4: do some other stuff. Columbia is not going anywhere, but
• 28:31
  Speaker 4: we don't have these amountabet in Greece every day, so
• 28:34
  Speaker 4: I'm leaning towards coming.
• 28:36
  Speaker 3: There, all right?
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: Send that out coop on social media. A guy's going
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: to give up partying in Columbia.
• 28:41
  Speaker 8: Can you go to Columbia first, then come to Vegas?
• 28:44
  Speaker 4: I cannot?
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: You work at the airline? Did you could go? You
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: could go to Vegas and go from Vegas to Columbia.
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: Boom done, there you go. I do.
• 28:53
  Speaker 4: I do things like that all the time. That's just
• 28:54
  Speaker 4: a little bit too far.
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: Okay, Yeah, I got you, because you have to get
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: back to work or whatever.
• 29:00
  Speaker 4: No, no work, no work, no work.
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: Okay. How long does it take to fly to Columbia?
• 29:05
  Speaker 4: Well about from here in Texas? I got a non
• 29:08
  Speaker 4: stop about five to six hours.
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: Okay, So it's like going from the West coast to
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: the East coast.
• 29:14
  Speaker 8: I get so antsy on that amount of time traveling
• 29:17
  Speaker 8: in planes.
• 29:18
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I wouldn't do it that long. I would connect
• 29:20
  Speaker 4: through Fort Lauderdale or Orlando. So from there it's about
• 29:24
  Speaker 4: three hours to Orlando. It's about two and a half
• 29:26
  Speaker 4: hours to give a take.
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I got you. Well, we haven't heard from you
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: in a while, saw, So what you've been up to.
• 29:33
  Speaker 4: What I've been up to? Working out? Ben? Yeah, okay,
• 29:37
  Speaker 4: working out, dancing, dancing, five nights a week now. No
• 29:40
  Speaker 4: football summer is here, so no football to worry. But
• 29:44
  Speaker 4: so five nights a week.
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: You got about two more weeks and actually this week
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: in college zero week in college football. It's beginning.
• 29:50
  Speaker 4: What does that mean?
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: That means it doesn't really count, but the games count.
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: But there's only a few games this weekend and the
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: real launch is the following week. So college football could
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: be here in like two weeks.
• 29:59
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I'll be a we that we better start. So
• 30:02
  Speaker 4: that's gonna be a little bit of a disruption, but
• 30:04
  Speaker 4: I have to make it worse.
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: Well they have. That's the internet. You can You should
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: not watch illegal streams, but there are ways. I'm told
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: I don't do this, of course, because it would be wrong,
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: but there are ways.
• 30:13
  Speaker 4: Watch watch on my phone.
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, you can watch on your phone. That's amazing.
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: All right, Well, very good salsa, Thank you buddy.
• 30:21
  Speaker 4: All Right, you have a great night.
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: The great Salcon checking, let's go to Tony.
• 30:25
  Speaker 8: Before we got to Tony real quick, I did, I
• 30:27
  Speaker 8: did receive word that some other show royalty will be
• 30:30
  Speaker 8: joining us.
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: A really agains. Oh who I do not know? Who's
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: going to be the Queen Roxanne?
• 30:35
  Speaker 2: No?
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: Is that right? Great Queen Roxanne? Correct? We met her
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: years ago. She showed up to a minor league baseball
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: appearance that we did remember back in the day. Was
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: that was that San Bernardino? Yes, I think San Berna.
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: We threw out the first pitch. We're gonna do that again.
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: We haven't thrown out the first pitch in a while
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: because Rob Manford got rid of most of the minor
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: league baseball teams, which limits how many options. Although we
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: could have done the WU Socks if we'd gone during
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: the WU Sox season. So should we wait? How about this?
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: Should we wait until next summer to do the meet
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: and greet in Boston because then we can do a
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: WU Socks night and then throw out the first pitch
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: in a minor league And wouldn't that be kind of
• 31:13
