- 2:18Speaker 1: So we're back at it after the weekend and.
- 2:21Speaker 2: Later this week they'll be practice football, not real football,
- 2:24Speaker 2: but practice football, and our lead.
- 2:26Speaker 1: Is from the NFL.
- 2:28Speaker 2: As the tensions get ratcheted up in Dallas, Cowboy Camp
- 2:33Speaker 2: in beautiful Auxnard, California, and more news out on Michah Parsons.
- 2:38Speaker 2: Very concerned about Michaeh Parsons in his four oh one
- 2:40Speaker 2: k very worried about He's already making a lot of money,
- 2:43Speaker 2: But you want to make more money? More, more and
- 2:44Speaker 2: more and more more money? Or does he want to
- 2:46Speaker 2: make more money? Possibly not? The jabbing continues here. The
- 2:52Speaker 2: latest salvo tossed out at Cowboy camp this following following
- 2:59Speaker 2: a group of fans that were yelling pay Micah, pay
- 3:04Speaker 2: Micah as the chance rained down on Jerry Jones, the
- 3:09Speaker 2: Cowboy owners during training camp over the weekend. So following that,
- 3:14Speaker 2: we discussed the commentary of the kid that would be
- 3:18Speaker 2: Stephen Jones and Stephen Jones, the Cowboys executive vice president.
- 3:24Speaker 2: He got the job because he happens to have the
- 3:26Speaker 2: right DNA, he said, of the situation involving the Cowboy
- 3:32Speaker 2: defensive player, he said, quote, we want to pay Micah too.
- 3:36Speaker 1: He has to want to be paid.
- 3:39Speaker 2: Close quote all right, So again Stephen Jones, the Dallas
- 3:43Speaker 2: Cowboys executive vice president, the son of Jerry, he got
- 3:47Speaker 2: the job because of DNA. Stephen Jones saying of the
- 3:51Speaker 2: contract squabble, he said, we want to pay Micah too.
- 3:56Speaker 2: He has to want to be paid. So what does
- 3:59Speaker 2: that even mean? That's the question. So I've got Expressway,
- 4:04Speaker 2: Garage Sale, and Macy's and we will combine all of
- 4:09Speaker 2: these things together and we are gonna make a biscuit
- 4:13Speaker 2: with some mashed potatoes and some gravy on the side.
- 4:16Speaker 2: So a using all of the top technology, and some
- 4:21Speaker 2: of you people use like advanced.
- 4:23Speaker 1: AI and all.
- 4:24Speaker 2: No, no, no, I have a decoder ring that works
- 4:27Speaker 2: for me. I have a decoder ring. That's all I
- 4:30Speaker 2: need and it's priceless. Got it years ago, my decoder ring.
- 4:33Speaker 2: So Stephen Jones is sending a message, a very public
- 4:37Speaker 2: message about Michael Parsons. Kind of obviously needed to decoder
- 4:40Speaker 2: ring to figure that part out. But this is, according
- 4:44Speaker 2: to the Dakota Ring corporate speak. All right, this is
- 4:48Speaker 2: corporate speak for we low balled Michael Parsons. We did
- 4:51Speaker 2: not offer him the contract that everyone thought we were
- 4:55Speaker 2: gonna offer Michael Parsons, and he did not bite at
- 4:58Speaker 2: the offer that we may and now we are shocked
- 5:02Speaker 2: that he didn't sign and say thank you, Can I
- 5:04Speaker 2: have another?
- 5:05Speaker 1: And so it's like they think that they're.
- 5:08Speaker 2: Entitled some kind of cowboy discount or something like that. Right, Oh,
- 5:12Speaker 2: there's gotta be some kind of discount or.
- 5:13Speaker 1: Something like that.
- 5:14Speaker 2: No, no, so, but I like the positioning. Like the
- 5:18Speaker 2: positioning is, Hey, it's not our fault. It's Micah Parsons.
- 5:20Speaker 2: He's the bad guy here and they're playing hardball. Remember
- 5:24Speaker 2: that show you used to be on TV Hardball. They're
- 5:26Speaker 2: playing hardball here and the Cowboys. This is not so
- 5:30Speaker 2: much of a leak. There's other stuff that was leaked
- 5:32Speaker 2: over the weekend. This is more of a direct. It's
- 5:34Speaker 2: actually audio of Stephen Jones. Of course we don't have
- 5:38Speaker 2: it here, but the audio of Stephen Jones saying that.
- 5:42Speaker 1: To the media.
- 5:43Speaker 2: But there's other stuff that was leaked as well, using
- 5:46Speaker 2: useful idiots in the media to make it look like
- 5:50Speaker 2: Parsons is the difficult one and all that stuff. So
- 5:53Speaker 2: it does not change my position. I have maintained I
- 5:56Speaker 2: have been locked in Benny's bunker. I am in Benny's
- 6:00Speaker 2: bucking when it comes to the Micah Parsons story. We
- 6:03Speaker 2: are on the expressway. There's no off ramps. We are
- 6:06Speaker 2: on the expressway. We are headed towards Critical Mass that
- 6:09Speaker 2: is where we are headed towards. And it's gonna come
- 6:12Speaker 2: down to the eleventh hour that first regular season weekend,
- 6:16Speaker 2: right before the Cowboys first game, and they're gonna melk
- 6:20Speaker 2: every single headline, right, just milk every single headline. Here,
- 6:24Speaker 2: classic Jerry Jones playbook technique there, the Cowboys, the glitz,
- 6:30Speaker 2: the glamour, the dysfunction, all of that, trying to run
- 6:34Speaker 2: out the clock and hope that Micah Parsons blinks. And
- 6:39Speaker 2: the Cowboys is pretty much just kind of going around
- 6:42Speaker 2: talking in circles and all that.
- 6:43Speaker 1: That's what they do, which is good for.
- 6:45Speaker 2: Us because we get to break it all down scientifically
- 6:48Speaker 2: there and that they want to pay Michaeh Parsons, but
- 6:52Speaker 2: only on their terms. And the kicker of all kickers
- 6:55Speaker 2: on this and the part of it which is so
- 6:57Speaker 2: great is every man, woman and child knows that the fan,
- 7:04Speaker 2: the Cowboy fan, they talk a good game, but they'll
- 7:08Speaker 2: show up no matter what. It doesn't matter. They're there
- 7:11Speaker 2: for the star on the side of the helmet. They're
- 7:13Speaker 2: there for the aura. It's a captive audience. Jerry knows this.
- 7:16Speaker 2: Everyone knows this, and they're still gonna buy the jerseys.
- 7:20Speaker 2: They're still gonna go out there every year and we
- 7:22Speaker 2: believe this is the year and this is gonna be
- 7:24Speaker 2: everything's gonna go great. And why because the Cowboys, the
- 7:28Speaker 2: cowboy fan is in a toxic relationship with the front office.
- 7:33Speaker 1: It's been that.
- 7:33Speaker 2: Way for thirty years. And the great thing is a
- 7:37Speaker 2: lot of them don't even realize it. I was like,
- 7:39Speaker 2: I don't understand, no idea what this is all about. Anyway,
- 7:43Speaker 2: Now page two, here we go to Jersey. We head
- 7:46Speaker 2: to the swampland of New Jersey where a Giants insider,
- 7:52Speaker 2: a New York Giants insider says quarterback Jameis Winston would
- 7:57Speaker 2: only be traded for a quote godfather offer. So does
- 8:02Speaker 2: that one pass the smell test? A Godfather offer? So
- 8:07Speaker 2: this has got to be the dumbest thing I saw
- 8:10Speaker 2: all weekend. I don't know what the dumbest thing you
- 8:12Speaker 2: saw all weekend, it was in sports. But this is
- 8:14Speaker 2: the dumbest thing I saw all weekend in sports. A
- 8:17Speaker 2: godfather offer for Jameis Winston. So does that pass the
- 8:21Speaker 2: smell test? Not my sniffer, maybe yours. My schnaz test
- 8:26Speaker 2: is a no. Here, this is ridiculous. Here you talked
- 8:29Speaker 2: about a babbling, bumbling band of buffoons here that are
- 8:34Speaker 2: out there. Why would you even say that? But in
- 8:37Speaker 2: what world is that reality? Seriously, Jameis Winston. If my
- 8:43Speaker 2: math is right on this, Jameis Winston is the backup
- 8:46Speaker 2: to the backup. He's behind Russell Wilson, who should be
- 8:50Speaker 2: a backup, is not very good. He sucks and he's cooked,
- 8:55Speaker 2: and he's out there masquerading as the QB one for
- 8:58Speaker 2: the Giants, which you want.
- 9:01Speaker 1: Let me get straight. So you won a first round
- 9:05Speaker 1: pick for that would be the godfather.
- 9:07Speaker 2: Offer a first round pick for a guy who has
- 9:11Speaker 2: been bouncing around the NFL like a pinball and a
- 9:14Speaker 2: pinball machine in recent years.
- 9:16Speaker 1: So that is what you're going for here.
- 9:17Speaker 2: That's not a Godfather off that This garage sale situation is.
- 9:22Speaker 2: What this is is a garage sale situation's absolute poppy cock, malarkey,
- 9:28Speaker 2: any of those big words if you want to use
- 9:30Speaker 2: now again, we love the player, Jamis Winston, famous, Jamis
- 9:34Speaker 2: the story. He's a great SoundBite, don't get me wrong.
- 9:37Speaker 2: He's he's got the charisma, he's entertaining, he's electric, much
- 9:43Speaker 2: of that for the wrong reasons, much of that.
- 9:45Speaker 1: For the wrong for the wrong reasons. And he's one
- 9:48Speaker 1: man band.
- 9:49Speaker 2: He'll throw four touchdowns and four interceptions and not even
- 9:54Speaker 2: work up a sweat not even a sweat as a starter.
- 9:57Speaker 1: He's a loose cannon. He's not a star. He's a backup.
- 10:00Speaker 1: And everyone kind of knows that.
- 10:02Speaker 2: And so you're not exactly trading if you're the Giants,
- 10:06Speaker 2: you're not trading a Jameis Winston for anything more than
- 10:11Speaker 2: just a late round traffic.
- 10:12Speaker 1: The idea that you're going.
- 10:13Speaker 2: To get a boatload of unbelievable assets in return for
- 10:18Speaker 2: Jamis Winston when he often needs some kind of tracking
- 10:21Speaker 2: device on the football because he's gonna throw it to
- 10:23Speaker 2: the other team. Nobody's gonna make a godfather offer for
- 10:27Speaker 2: a backup quarterback. That's not gonna happen. And it sounds like,
- 10:32Speaker 2: after several minutes of analyzing this, it sounds like the
- 10:37Speaker 2: Giants are just trying to puff their chest out like
- 10:40Speaker 2: a rooster, and they're like, height, we have such a
- 10:44Speaker 2: great quarterback room.
- 10:45Speaker 1: O MG, we are loaded.
- 10:48Speaker 2: My god, look at us, How great are we? We
- 10:52Speaker 2: picked up the rotting carcass of Russell Wilson and we thought, well,
- 10:56Speaker 2: we have him. Let's draft a kid from college who
- 10:58Speaker 2: can't play, and then we'll get a guy, a veteran
- 11:00Speaker 2: as a backup who has been bouncing around because all
- 11:04Speaker 2: he does is throw it interception. Those are our three quarterbacks, right,
- 11:08Speaker 2: of course we all know if you have three quarterbacks,
- 11:10Speaker 2: we know what that means.
- 11:11Speaker 1: Yes, of course none.
- 11:13Speaker 2: It's kind of like the idea that the Giants would
- 11:16Speaker 2: even throw it out there, and this unless the inside
- 11:18Speaker 2: had just made it up this person that covers the giants.
- 11:21Speaker 2: But the idea that that would be the case. It's
- 11:23Speaker 2: like it's like going to the used car lot in saying,
- 11:26Speaker 2: all right, let me tell you something. I got this
- 11:28Speaker 2: twenty fifteen Mitsubishi Mirage. It's got three hundred thousand miles
- 11:33Speaker 2: on it. Okay, but I'm not leaving here unless I
- 11:36Speaker 2: get that blue Rolls Royce.
- 11:38Speaker 1: I am.
- 11:39Speaker 2: I'm willing to give up the Mitsubishi Mirage with three
- 11:41Speaker 2: hundred thousand miles from twenty fifteen, but I have to
- 11:44Speaker 2: get that blue Rolls Royce. Yeah, good luck on that, right,
- 11:48Speaker 2: Just like, come on, let's be real here, you're lucky
- 11:51Speaker 2: if somebody takes it off your hands and scraps it
- 11:54Speaker 2: at that particular point, that's the.
- 11:56Speaker 1: Way it is. And so add on that jamis is
- 12:00Speaker 1: an acquired It's kind of like oysters, who the hell
- 12:03Speaker 1: likes oysters. Weird people like oysters, right, or or liver
- 12:07Speaker 1: who likes eating liver? Weird people.
- 12:09Speaker 2: It's like that, And so nobody's giving you the old
- 12:12Speaker 2: Godfather offer for a stringy, slimy.
- 12:18Speaker 1: Type of mucus that is oysters.
- 12:21Speaker 2: So good luck on that the Giants could trade Winston
- 12:24Speaker 2: and get some late round conditional draft pick and a
- 12:27Speaker 2: nice handshake and an autograph photo of somebody.
- 12:29Speaker 1: Sure they get that. Say thank you, ast say thank you?
- 12:34Speaker 1: All right now the last word.
- 12:36Speaker 2: We now pivot to a story that was as predictable
- 12:40Speaker 2: as the sun rising and the sun setting.
- 12:43Speaker 1: Right. The story out of the Music City Dayline.
- 12:46Speaker 2: Nashville glowing reports, glowing reports from Titans camp about quarterback
- 12:53Speaker 2: cam Ward having already one reports that already won over
- 12:59Speaker 2: the room. Cam Ward no games played yet, cam Ward
- 13:03Speaker 2: has already won over the organization. He's at the facility
- 13:08Speaker 2: at five thirty every morning, every single morning.
- 13:13Speaker 1: Question. So cam Ward, according to these reports recently.
- 13:17Speaker 2: Has already already won over the Tennessee Titans, is at
- 13:22Speaker 2: the facility five thirty in the morning every morning. How
- 13:27Speaker 2: much stock do you put in to this one? So
- 13:31Speaker 2: how about zero? There's a penny stock not even that.
- 13:35Speaker 2: Not even a penny stock on this one. This is
- 13:38Speaker 2: the old eye roll, is what it's like. Here we
- 13:41Speaker 2: go again, Here we go again. You know, stop me
- 13:45Speaker 2: if you've heard this every quarterback draft at the top
- 13:47Speaker 2: of the draft, and pretty much that's exclusively quarterbacks that
- 13:50Speaker 2: go number one overall in the draft. It's almost always.
- 13:54Speaker 2: And so stop me if you've you've heard that. We
- 13:57Speaker 2: hear it every year. All that rookie quarterback, first guy
- 14:01Speaker 2: in the building, he's the last guy out. Of course
- 14:05Speaker 2: he is. He's he's that's what you're supposed to do.
- 14:09Speaker 2: You're a rookie quarterback. You better be there early. That's
- 14:12Speaker 2: how the job goes. That's the bare minimum. It's another
- 14:16Speaker 2: one of the story. He's talk about doing the bare minimum.
- 14:19Speaker 2: It's like saying the guy put pants on and and
- 14:24Speaker 2: then he came to work. Well he put pants on
- 14:25Speaker 2: before he came to Well, that's impressive. He put pants
- 14:27Speaker 2: on and then showed up to work. Are we gonna
- 14:30Speaker 2: get a parade for him brushing his teeth, flossing? Does
- 14:33Speaker 2: he get a parade for flossing? Is there a parade
- 14:35Speaker 2: for that? So this is the old boiler plate training
- 14:40Speaker 2: camp story, right, They roll these things out every single year.
- 14:44Speaker 2: They roll these stories out every single year, New rookie,
- 14:47Speaker 2: clean slate, extra film work.
- 14:50Speaker 1: Right.
- 14:50Speaker 2: They love him in the building, he's got the trust
- 14:53Speaker 2: of the locker room, all of that.
- 14:55Speaker 5: Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
- 14:56Speaker 5: blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah.
- 14:58Speaker 2: Uh and uh, of course I always my default, always, well,
- 15:01Speaker 2: let me know when we actually see this person go
- 15:03Speaker 2: out there and do good things in a game, right,
- 15:07Speaker 2: and doesn't look like deer in the headlights when they're
- 15:09Speaker 2: out there running around. It's like, Okay, let's see if
- 15:11Speaker 2: this guy can do. It's the classic NFL.
- 15:14Speaker 1: Media pablum, is what it is. It's a classic.
- 15:18Speaker 2: NFL media pablum where they're pumping the kid up like
- 15:20Speaker 2: he's the Macy's Thanksgiving Day balloon and just pumping them
- 15:25Speaker 2: with air and it's all hot air. There's no substance there,
- 15:28Speaker 2: there can't be any substance. I saw one reporter say
- 15:32Speaker 2: that he's got command of the huddle already. We mentioned
- 15:35Speaker 2: that command of the huddle already, which I love that.
- 15:38Speaker 2: I think that's hilarious.
- 15:40Speaker 1: In training camp.
- 15:41Speaker 2: He's been in the huddle for what a week? Are
- 15:44Speaker 2: we going to count rookie mini camp? Is that what
- 15:46Speaker 2: we're counting on this?
- 15:47Speaker 6: Like?
- 15:47Speaker 1: Where are we going on this?
- 15:48Speaker 2: It's the preseason exhibition echo chamber, and no one ever
- 15:53Speaker 2: wants to say, well, we don't really know where this
- 15:56Speaker 2: guy blows. We don't know if this guy's thinks or not.
- 15:59Speaker 2: He hasn't played yet. We don't want to say that.
- 16:01Speaker 2: So we are in the hype business. We have to
- 16:03Speaker 2: hype this guy up. So instead it's he's the first
- 16:06Speaker 2: one in the building and everyone loves him and he's
- 16:09Speaker 2: a great cam Ward number one picking the draft.
- 16:12Speaker 1: That's not leadership. Again, I've said this, I've preached from
- 16:15Speaker 1: the bully pulpit for years.
- 16:17Speaker 2: It's not leadership. Just showing up on time. Showing up
- 16:21Speaker 2: to your job on time. That's what you're supposed to do.
- 16:25Speaker 2: That's like, that's the again bare minimum. You don't get
- 16:29Speaker 2: a medal for punching in on the alarm clock. You
- 16:34Speaker 2: get the metal when you actually perform. Well, that's how
- 16:37Speaker 2: that works. It is the Ben Mahlor Show. If you'd

- 19:44Speaker 2: Godfather offer for Jameis Winston, but a Chucky Cheese offer

- 19:55Speaker 2: mikey Cano. Don't you know checking in? He said, O Jerry,
- 19:58Speaker 2: who I met at the World Series years ago. She's

- 20:02Speaker 1: There she's in.
- 20:03Speaker 2: She's hanging out with us late and she was at
- 20:05Speaker 2: the twenty eighteen World Series. She says, Mallard, no Dodger
- 20:09Speaker 2: lead to begin the show. Even the Red Sox beat
- 20:11Speaker 2: them two out of three, why not talking about them?
- 20:15Speaker 2: There you go, it says, just kidding, having they lost
- 20:19Speaker 2: like thirteen of the last twenty. Yeah, well that's that
- 20:21Speaker 2: Dodger arrogance pisses me off man. They don't care. And
- 20:25Speaker 2: then Dodger fans in the same way as Oh, we're
- 20:27Speaker 2: gonna win the World Series. It doesn't matter. We're just
- 20:29Speaker 2: gonna flip the switch. And it's like, Okay, you're playing
- 20:31Speaker 2: like absolute dog poo poo right now, and you just suck.
- 20:36Speaker 2: It's terrible and you let that cheating a hole Alex Bregman,
- 20:39Speaker 2: the cheating astro. I don't care if he's wearing a
- 20:42Speaker 2: Red Sox uniform or not. Forever tainted.
- 20:46Speaker 10: They are cheating of the Houston Strosan.
- 20:51Speaker 1: Something like that.
- 20:51Speaker 2: Yeah, Supermarcus Steve writs and says, if being first in
- 20:54Speaker 2: the building got you any credit with the company that
- 20:57Speaker 2: you work for, you guys be making cowhard money. You
- 21:01Speaker 2: guys are definitely first in the building. Unfortunately, credit pay
- 21:06Speaker 2: is based on quality.
- 21:10Speaker 1: No, it's usually based on who you know. That's usually
- 21:12Speaker 1: how that works.
- 21:13Speaker 2: Brock writes and says, Hey, hey, Ben, a great show,

- 21:30Speaker 2: the day, Ben, What did you think of Happy Gilmour too?
- 21:34Speaker 2: I watched it just so I was ready for your
- 21:37Speaker 2: in depth review. Was it everything you thought it would
- 21:40Speaker 2: be and more? Were you let down? Please tell us? Well,
- 21:43Speaker 2: I'm I'm gonna save the full review till later. I
- 21:47Speaker 2: might save that for the podcast. I did watch it.
- 21:50Speaker 2: It was not nothing memorable. It felt a lot like
- 21:55Speaker 2: Adam Sandler just wanted to get all his friends cameos.
- 21:58Speaker 2: That's pretty much why they made it, and get his
- 22:00Speaker 2: aughts some acting gigs there. And yeah, it's like, how
- 22:04Speaker 2: did they get how did they get Netflix to sign
- 22:07Speaker 2: off on that?
- 22:08Speaker 1: Seriously?
- 22:09Speaker 5: I saw a list of just the names had in it,
- 22:12Speaker 5: and it was like this person's daughter this person's son, uncle,
- 22:16Speaker 5: all of Adam Sandler's kids, wife, uncle, nephew, niece, cousin.
- 22:20Speaker 2: Yeah, no, it was a lot of his family. But
- 22:22Speaker 2: then it was just like weird, Like, I don't did
- 22:25Speaker 2: we really need Travis Kelcey to.
- 22:27Speaker 1: Play the waiter? I mean, do we need that bad bunny?
- 22:30Speaker 1: I mean, is that concently?
- 22:31Speaker 10: Don't need any of those?
- 22:32Speaker 2: Yeah, So that's where I am on that. Shane in
- 22:36Speaker 2: the Morning says, happy birthday, weed Man. Is his birthday?
- 22:38Speaker 2: He didn't called in other than on his day to
- 22:41Speaker 2: call in, which is Thursday and Friday. Truck Stop Fungus, right,
- 22:45Speaker 2: since says I'm starting to think that Joe Biden could
- 22:48Speaker 2: run the Cowboys better than Jerry Jones, the Great truck
- 22:52Speaker 2: Stop Fungus.
- 22:53Speaker 1: All right, Glory Hill.
- 22:55Speaker 2: Yeah, there you go, the Great Jerry Jones. It is
- 22:57Speaker 2: the Ben Malor Show. Let's see here, let's go to
- 23:00Speaker 2: the phones. We'll start out, well, here's a guy that
- 23:02Speaker 2: hasn't called the show in a long time, Ed in Arlington.
- 23:05Speaker 1: A baseball savant. Ed and Arlington. I didn't know what happened?
- 23:09Speaker 1: Where's Ed? Ben? I had no idea? Hello Ed and Arlington,
- 23:12Speaker 1: Welcome Ben you mean to.
- 23:15Speaker 11: Talk to you, to hear your voice live the phone
- 23:17Speaker 11: for change.
- 23:18Speaker 2: Welcome back. Where have you been at? It's been many,
- 23:20Speaker 2: many months since we spoke.
- 23:22Speaker 11: I've been working my rear end off and trying to
- 23:26Speaker 11: shake my destraught feelings over the play of the Rangers
- 23:31Speaker 11: for the first half of the season. They've been a disgrace.
- 23:34Speaker 1: Yeah, they're playing better now. They're playing with better now.
- 23:37Speaker 11: Though, absolutely, Yeah, that's why I call it. They look
- 23:40Speaker 11: like they're starting to turn things around.
- 23:42Speaker 2: Oh that's not fair, though. You only call when they're
- 23:44Speaker 2: playing better. So if they continue to play like crap,
- 23:47Speaker 2: you wouldn't have called up. Come on, man's with that?
- 23:51Speaker 11: Yeah, well I just didn't. Made for very entertained radio.
- 23:54Speaker 2: No, no, no, that's a bad take. The greatest radio
- 23:58Speaker 2: is angry radio. Your team stink, that's great radio. That's
- 24:01Speaker 2: not when your team's going well. Who cares about that?
- 24:03Speaker 2: But the Rangers now have they've tied the Mariners, as
- 24:08Speaker 2: you know.
- 24:09Speaker 1: Because you're ed in Arlington.
- 24:11Speaker 2: But the Rangers and Mariners are tied for the final
- 24:14Speaker 2: wildcard spot in the American League.
- 24:16Speaker 11: Now, yeah, as bad as the Rangers have been playing,
- 24:20Speaker 11: you got to think they've got nowhere to go but
- 24:22Speaker 11: up from here because they've had solid starting pitching. Their
- 24:27Speaker 11: they're starting pitching has been second to none off season
- 24:30Speaker 11: on that's a pathetic, wet noodle core on the hitters
- 24:34Speaker 11: at the plate, and it looks like they're starting to
- 24:39Speaker 11: get a feel for it. And they've got Jack Peterson.
- 24:43Speaker 11: Thanks for sending him to us.
- 24:45Speaker 2: Well, he went to like he went to like seven
- 24:47Speaker 2: other teams before he got to you, So I don't
- 24:49Speaker 2: know he's.
- 24:50Speaker 1: Played for how many teams?
- 24:51Speaker 2: Jack Peterson all over the place, they got changes teams
- 24:53Speaker 2: every year, Cobbs, Braves, Giants, Diamondbacks, he's all over the place.
- 24:59Speaker 1: Didn't he suck all so by the way, at the
- 25:00Speaker 1: beginning of the year, wasn't he terrible? And he got
- 25:02Speaker 1: hurt years that suck?
- 25:04Speaker 11: Yeah, he was choy pathetic. Yeah, it's time for him
- 25:09Speaker 11: to go find another sport. But we'll get our figures crossed.
- 25:13Speaker 11: He may be a little sparks that the ranger Hitterson used,
- 25:18Speaker 11: but they got some of their rookies why at Langford
- 25:21Speaker 11: Evan Carter that seemed to be playing up to their potential.
- 25:27Speaker 11: And then of course Cory Seger is Cory Sieger. He's
- 25:31Speaker 11: he's fantastic as Theoways and he can stay healthy, then
- 25:35Speaker 11: they got a shot.
- 25:36Speaker 1: Well that's always the problem with see her.
- 25:37Speaker 2: He gets hurt all the time though, so that's as.
- 25:40Speaker 1: It should be an NBA player. He misses so much
- 25:43Speaker 1: times it's crazy.
- 25:45Speaker 2: Well listen, Ed, I'm happy that they took the Rangers
- 25:47Speaker 2: to get on a little bit of a burner for
- 25:49Speaker 2: you to call back up. And then now that the
- 25:51Speaker 2: trade deadline is just a few days away. It's coming
- 25:54Speaker 2: up this week. The trade deadline's on Thursday, so there'll
- 25:56Speaker 2: be some crazy transactions to yap about, which will be
- 26:00Speaker 2: fun so that they.
- 26:01Speaker 11: Can some reinforcements. But we'll see they may have to
- 26:05Speaker 11: show with her they've got.
- 26:06Speaker 2: But that's that's.
- 26:07Speaker 11: Still the reason for for hope optimism there.
- 26:10Speaker 2: Yeah, there there have been a fair amount of trades
- 26:12Speaker 2: over the weekend, but nobody that really moves the needle, like,
- 26:16Speaker 2: nobody that really gets you all excited. Yeah, all right, well,
- 26:18Speaker 2: thank you, Ed. All right, I'm going I'm hanging up
- 26:20Speaker 2: on you, the great Edit Arlington. Thank you baseball guy,
- 26:23Speaker 2: old school baseball guy.
- 26:25Speaker 1: Edit Arlington.
- 26:27Speaker 2: We go way back Hot Ranger talk with Edit Arlington
- 26:31Speaker 2: and is that are we not on the pulse of
- 26:33Speaker 2: what the average overnight sports radio listener wants to hear it.
- 26:36Speaker 2: Come on, absolutely, more Texas Ranger baseball. That's what we need.
- 26:41Speaker 2: And if we talk more Texas Ranger baseball, like guy Charlie,
- 26:44Speaker 2: a kid, call her Charlie from Dallas.
- 26:45Speaker 1: We'll call back up.
- 26:46Speaker 10: Oh yeah, yeah, we miss him.
- 26:49Speaker 1: Let's see. I know what happened.
- 26:51Speaker 10: He's having a great summer vacation.
- 26:53Speaker 1: You think he took the summer off, because that's why
- 26:54Speaker 1: stop calling.
- 26:56Speaker 10: He's got to be right clearly.
- 26:57Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, homeschool or.
- 27:00Speaker 10: He got grounded from his radio because he was staying
- 27:02Speaker 10: up all night.
- 27:03Speaker 1: But he did homeschool. You can do that whenever you
- 27:05Speaker 1: don't have to. It's a home school. It's easy.
- 27:09Speaker 2: King Rory says was been in the Happy Gilmore. No,
- 27:15Speaker 2: I was one of the few people that didn't make
- 27:16Speaker 2: a cameo and Happy Gilmore too. I'm upset. I mean
- 27:20Speaker 2: I saw it. He blew me off. I saw Steven
- 27:22Speaker 2: A in there. I saw Dan Patrick a couple of
- 27:24Speaker 2: times in there were some podcast people. Have no idea
- 27:27Speaker 2: who they were. Apparently they're famous.
- 27:29Speaker 1: I don't know. They just threw them in there like anybody.
- 27:31Speaker 2: Like if you met Adam Sandler years ago at Statement
- 27:34Speaker 2: it was called Staple Center.
- 27:35Speaker 1: He was going to a Clipper game against the.
- 27:38Speaker 2: Knicks, and he walked in through the regular entrance, not
- 27:41Speaker 2: the Hollywood celebrity ff you know, screw you entrance, to
- 27:45Speaker 2: the Hollywood lead entrance. He walked in Sandler through the
- 27:48Speaker 2: regular entrance. How do I know this because I was
- 27:51Speaker 2: walking to my seat and he bumped into me because
- 27:53Speaker 2: he had his head down, thinking that no one would
- 27:56Speaker 2: recognize him if he just walked in through the main
- 27:59Speaker 2: entrance and at it head down, and I would not
- 28:01Speaker 2: have recognized him if he had not walked headfirst into me.
- 28:05Speaker 2: And then I immediately realized, wait, I think that's Adam Sambler.
- 28:08Speaker 2: And then they showed him on on the jumbo tron
- 28:10Speaker 2: later and was indeed Adam sam Let's go to Jay Scoop,
- 28:17Speaker 2: who's hanging out in northern California. What's going on?
- 28:20Speaker 1: Jay Scoop?
- 28:20Speaker 2: Welcome a congratulations by the way, the winner of the
- 28:25Speaker 2: Mallard Palooza twenty twenty five, Jay Scoop and just Josh.
- 28:32Speaker 11: Yeah, baby.
- 28:35Speaker 12: Brought it home again. But thanks for putting that on,
- 28:40Speaker 12: you know, just doing my due diligence. I wanted to
- 28:46Speaker 12: do the Hull Cogan entry music, but I missed out
- 28:50Speaker 12: when I tried to call him that day, so all
- 28:53Speaker 12: the other WHOLEK maniacs were calling in. But that was
- 28:56Speaker 12: a great show, by the way. I loved hearing all
- 29:00Speaker 12: stories that everybody. It just seemed like so many people
- 29:04Speaker 12: had good, good stories of growing up and you know,
- 29:08Speaker 12: Hull Hogan touching their lives. And anybody who didn't catch
- 29:12Speaker 12: that show, I highly recommend you check out the podcast.
- 29:15Speaker 2: Yeah, a classic for hul Cogan. Man, if you're of
- 29:19Speaker 2: a certain age, Haul Hogan was one of your child
- 29:22Speaker 2: but whether whether he was a hero or not, just
- 29:25Speaker 2: somebody that influenced you growing up.
- 29:28Speaker 1: I just I don't if you're around my age or
- 29:30Speaker 1: your age, Jay Scoop, I just think that's just the
- 29:33Speaker 1: way it is.
- 29:33Speaker 11: Man.
- 29:34Speaker 2: You get to a certain age as a kid, you
- 29:36Speaker 2: watch professional wrestling.
- 29:37Speaker 1: It's a big deal.
- 29:38Speaker 2: Even today. I still think I still think today it's
- 29:41Speaker 2: the same. That hasn't changed. It's there's other distractions, but
- 29:44Speaker 2: you're still watching.
- 29:47Speaker 12: Like I'll never forget when he lifted Andre the Giant.
- 29:50Speaker 12: I mean, I was like as a kid, I was
- 29:52Speaker 12: just like what the And you know, as an adult
- 29:55Speaker 12: now I'd be thinking like, how is the spine not
- 29:57Speaker 12: like this snap?
- 29:59Speaker 1: You know? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, exactly, yeah, well all all that.
- 30:06Speaker 2: Like I love the promos, just the over the top
- 30:09Speaker 2: nonsense where it's come out screaming and yelling at me
- 30:12Speaker 2: and g and Oakerland for some crappy wrestling card getting
- 30:15Speaker 2: kids to show up.
- 30:16Speaker 1: And like, oh, the whole the whole thing.
- 30:18Speaker 2: I have fond memories of that, but probably because you
- 30:21Speaker 2: know it was our youth, right, I mean, you look
- 30:23Speaker 2: back fondly, right, Jay Scoop, you don't look back at it.
- 30:25Speaker 2: I might have been like, oh I want to watch
- 30:28Speaker 2: this crap, and my in my head, I loved all
- 30:30Speaker 2: of it.
- 30:30Speaker 12: I loved everything exactly exactly. And how many of us
- 30:35Speaker 12: went off the top rope at home simply because of
- 30:38Speaker 12: Whulk Hogan making it so popular popular?
- 30:41Speaker 2: Oh yeah, oh yeah, I did the whole thing. I
- 30:43Speaker 2: did the whole like I can't hear you. You know
- 30:45Speaker 2: my brothers were talking trash with my hand. I do that,
- 30:48Speaker 2: you know, the whole thing, So absolutely, Jay Scoop, All right, buddy.
- 30:52Speaker 12: Well thanks, before I before I cut out was Bill
- 30:56Speaker 12: Miller pissed off that he didn't get to do any
- 30:59Speaker 12: voting in.
- 30:59Speaker 2: Student for the Yeah, but Bill Is filed the complaint
- 31:03Speaker 2: with HR so it was a formal complaint there that
- 31:07Speaker 2: Bill was not allowed to vote, which is not not right.
- 31:09Speaker 1: But Nkatara did a good job. I thought, I think
- 31:11Speaker 1: it was solid.
- 31:11Speaker 12: As a judge and hell yeah yeah, and we got
- 31:14Speaker 12: we gotta.
- 31:14Speaker 1: We got to broaden horizon. I think we got promoted more.
- 31:17Speaker 2: Next year, we've got to start earlier, have a firm date,
- 31:21Speaker 2: and we'll get some less comedy. As I ranted on
- 31:25Speaker 2: the Fifth Hour podcast over the weekend, just a little
- 31:28Speaker 2: less comedy.
- 31:29Speaker 1: I don't people aren't funny. You're not.
- 31:31Speaker 2: And even if you are funny, it's almost impossible to
- 31:34Speaker 2: be funny. Well no, it's it's almost impossible. If you
- 31:37Speaker 2: just you could bring any famous comedian whoever you think
- 31:40Speaker 2: the funniest person is, and you put them with no
- 31:42Speaker 2: nobody laughing. It's it's impossible.
- 31:45Speaker 12: Yeah, so yeah, yeah, that's that's pretty crazy. That's like
- 31:49Speaker 12: some of those shows on TV, like during COVID when
- 31:52Speaker 12: there was no audiences and they're trying to perform, Well.
- 31:56Speaker 10: We would the Three of us would be laughing if
- 31:58Speaker 10: it was funny.
- 31:59Speaker 2: Yeah, it was just now all right, thank you, Jay Scoop,
- 32:02Speaker 2: All right, go away. There's a Jay Scoop checking in
- 32:04Speaker 2: big winner at the mallow Paloozer. I should have kept
- 32:09Speaker 2: him on for this, but I guess I hung up
- 32:11Speaker 2: too soon. So I would like to rip the Hall
- 32:14Speaker 2: of Fame now, not the Baseball Hall of Fame. I
- 32:16Speaker 2: would like to take a shot at the mascot Hall
- 32:19Speaker 2: of Fame. I was watching the Sunday night game and
- 32:21Speaker 2: they had a big to do that The newest inductee
- 32:25Speaker 2: in the Mascot Hall of Fame, lou Seal not right,
- 32:32Speaker 2: not two thumbs down on lo now. Louciale is the
- 32:35Speaker 2: San Francisco Giants mascot who and was inducted. They had
- 32:39Speaker 2: a Gallas ceremony at the Giants ballpark last night on
- 32:43Speaker 2: Sunday Night baseball. They had the Mets mascot, Mister Met.
- 32:46Speaker 2: They had the Philly fanatic. I saw the Shark's mascot.
- 32:49Speaker 2: Was there some of those other mascots.
- 32:51Speaker 1: I don't even know who they were.
- 32:53Speaker 2: They were kind of hanging out there. But lou Seal
- 32:56Speaker 2: not not on the same line. Not it should not
- 33:00Speaker 2: be even mentioned in the same breath with mister met
- 33:03Speaker 2: and the Philly Fanatic, And it's a great injustice to
- 33:07Speaker 2: all the real mascots that matter that moved the needle,
- 33:11Speaker 2: like the aforementioned mister Mett, Philly Fanatic, Chuck the Condor
- 33:15Speaker 2: with the clippers, those are the real mascots that moved
- 33:17Speaker 2: the needle. The Rocky, the mascot of the Denver Nuggets
- 33:22Speaker 2: that died famously at the top of the arena, passed
- 33:24Speaker 2: out and they took his body down from the rafters,
- 33:28Speaker 2: one of the great video clips of all time. Those
- 33:30Speaker 2: are the mascots that should be the gorilla in Phoenix.
- 33:33Speaker 2: That's a Hall of Fame mascot. Lose Seal, my fat ass.
- 33:37Speaker 2: I do not want to live in a world where
- 33:39Speaker 2: lou Seal is a Hall of Fame mascot. That is
- 33:41Speaker 2: bull crap. I want to know the names of everyone
- 33:44Speaker 2: who voted on that. Lou Seal not a Hall of
- 33:47Speaker 2: Fame mascot. Bad job by the mascot Hall of Fame,
- 33:51Speaker 2: which I think is in Indiana.
