- 2:14Speaker 2: lead from college football the day after Ohio State basking
- 2:21Speaker 2: and the after glow of beating Notre Dame in the
- 2:26Speaker 2: National championship game back on Monday, Monday, Monday night, and
- 2:31Speaker 2: so they're still celebrating. Many people focusing in on the
- 2:35Speaker 2: return to glory for Ryan Day, the head coach in Columbus.
- 2:40Speaker 3: He was under fire, under siege.
- 2:43Speaker 2: After the Buck guys had lost to Michigan in the
- 2:47Speaker 2: regular season final. He's been well documented how bad that
- 2:52Speaker 2: loss was in Columbus, despite being massive favorites.
- 2:55Speaker 3: And now they've come back and won the championship.
- 2:59Speaker 2: So I don't know if you've been consumed with the
- 3:02Speaker 2: chatter the autopsy on how that happened, the blow by
- 3:07Speaker 2: blow and all of that. Perhaps not, but I thought
- 3:10Speaker 2: it was interesting. So Ryan Day was dragged through the mud.
- 3:13Speaker 3: Not fair. Now everyone's writing, Oh, it's not fair. Oh
- 3:17Speaker 3: blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah,
- 3:19Speaker 3: bah blah blah blah blah blah blah.
- 3:20Speaker 2: After the loss to the Wolverines back in the end
- 3:24Speaker 2: of twenty twenty four and so, and now he's got
- 3:26Speaker 2: the receipts and he can walk around like a peacock,
- 3:29Speaker 2: and clearly the storyline has changed. So let us discuss
- 3:33Speaker 2: the question. Let's get right to the meat of the matter.
- 3:37Speaker 2: Does Ohio State coach Ryan Day deserve to go on
- 3:42Speaker 2: an apology tour and get a bunch of I'm sorry
- 3:48Speaker 2: from the various critics. Does Ohio State coach Ryan Day
- 3:51Speaker 2: deserve an apology from the people that were critical of
- 3:55Speaker 2: his coach. So I've got stables, animaniacs, and whistle stop
- 4:02Speaker 2: and we will combine all of these things together, and
- 4:07Speaker 2: we are going to carve out of a mountain. We're
- 4:10Speaker 2: going to carve something out of a mountain. So, first
- 4:12Speaker 2: of all, I'm shaking my head.
- 4:16Speaker 3: No, I'm shaking my head.
- 4:17Speaker 2: No, Ryan Day does not deserve an apology Ohio State.
- 4:23Speaker 3: He deserved to be roast.
- 4:24Speaker 2: Okay, so he didn't deserve the buddy was at the
- 4:26Speaker 2: time that took place. That was accurate criticism of Ryan Day.
- 4:33Speaker 2: And that's how it works. You went out, you bought
- 4:36Speaker 2: your team, which is fine. I don't have a problem.
- 4:38Speaker 2: I like the Dodgers. They buy their team. I'm happy
- 4:40Speaker 2: with that. But when the Dodgers don't win, they get ripped.
- 4:43Speaker 2: Ohio State went out tried to pay for a championship,
- 4:46Speaker 2: and it looked like it wasn't going to work out.
- 4:48Speaker 2: They spend over twenty million dollars, which for now is
- 4:50Speaker 2: a lot of money.
- 4:50Speaker 3: In a few years it'll be one hundred million.
- 4:52Speaker 2: But they were favored by twenty and a half points
- 4:56Speaker 2: at one moment in time against the Michigan football team,
- 4:59Speaker 2: so they were almost three touchdown favorites. They were at home,
- 5:03Speaker 2: and they gagged. They suffocated, They choked. The Buckeyes choked.
- 5:08Speaker 2: The mollment was too big. They couldn't handle it. Michigan
- 5:12Speaker 2: had been so blah. But yet Michigan in that game
- 5:16Speaker 2: kept Ohio State's offense and checked the rivalry game and
- 5:19Speaker 2: if you look at the last few years, I know
- 5:21Speaker 2: that was Jim Harball, but Michigan has dominated Ohio State
- 5:24Speaker 2: in recent years and that's the game that matters more
- 5:27Speaker 2: than every other game for the Buck. Guys, we all
- 5:29Speaker 2: know that even if you're not from Ohio or you're
- 5:31Speaker 2: not from Michigan, you know that Ryan Day had been
- 5:35Speaker 2: goofed on. But that goes with the real estate. See,
- 5:39Speaker 2: that goes with the territory. You buy the land, you
- 5:40Speaker 2: get that on the land, that's part of the land.
- 5:43Speaker 2: And he's well compensated for his troubles. He makes over
- 5:46Speaker 2: ten million dollars a year, just got a million dollar bonus.
- 5:49Speaker 2: So with that million dollar bonus, I assume that Ryan
- 5:52Speaker 2: Day can afford to go down to the stables. Probably
- 5:54Speaker 2: has a big ranch, big plantation there. Go down to
- 5:57Speaker 2: your stables, and why don't you get one of those
- 6:00Speaker 2: mini therapy horses and help manage your anxiety if this
- 6:04Speaker 2: is really an issue. You're expected to win titles at
- 6:07Speaker 2: Ohio State. You hadn't won a title at Ohio State
- 6:11Speaker 2: as the coach, and so you you don't need an apology.
- 6:16Speaker 2: If you're Ryan Day, because you were held accountable. That's
- 6:20Speaker 2: the yin and the yang right to give and the take,
- 6:22Speaker 2: and that's how it works. And you might not like that,
- 6:23Speaker 2: but that's the way it works. And now the other
- 6:25Speaker 2: storyline about Ohio State is should Ryan Day leave the
- 6:28Speaker 2: buck Eyes because of the way the fans were toxic
- 6:33Speaker 2: towards him and his family? Leave Ohio State behind for
- 6:36Speaker 2: the NFL. So this is one of those Cinderella stories,
- 6:39Speaker 2: you know, run off and go to the big dance
- 6:42Speaker 2: in the NFL. But at this point, there is no
- 6:46Speaker 2: indication that anyone from the NFL wants Ryan Day. Now,
- 6:50Speaker 2: it might be wrong on this, I don't know. I
- 6:52Speaker 2: just see the Overnight show. Maybe somebody will pop up
- 6:53Speaker 2: later today, is that we want Ryan Day. But at
- 6:56Speaker 2: this point, at this point, bupkis right. So it does
- 7:00Speaker 2: take two to tango. I don't think you can just
- 7:02Speaker 2: give yourself a job. I don't think Ryan Day can
- 7:04Speaker 2: get on the phone and call up the Jacksonville football
- 7:07Speaker 2: team and say, hey, I like them, I'd like to
- 7:09Speaker 2: coach the Jags.
- 7:10Speaker 3: Can I do that? I don't think that's how that works.
- 7:14Speaker 2: So, yeah, it's a nice thought to say he's gonna
- 7:17Speaker 2: run off and become a head coach in the NFL.
- 7:21Speaker 2: And he's been a coach working his way up and
- 7:23Speaker 2: then becoming a head coach for twenty five years. Out
- 7:26Speaker 2: of those twenty five years of coaching, he spent exactly
- 7:29Speaker 2: two years as a positional coach, not a coordinator.
- 7:32Speaker 3: Positional coach in the NFL.
- 7:36Speaker 2: And outside of you look around like Pete Carroll, Jimmy Johnson,
- 7:42Speaker 2: most college coaches, it has not worked out.
- 7:46Speaker 3: Now, each situation is unique. Urban Meyer. He had a
- 7:51Speaker 3: very good.
- 7:51Speaker 2: Time with the young ladies there at the bar, but
- 7:53Speaker 2: on the field didn't work out so well for Urban Now. Secondly,
- 7:56Speaker 2: we go to the wisdom of a voice of college football,
- 8:01Speaker 2: Joel Clatt, the Fox Sports commentator Joel Clatt there got
- 8:05Speaker 2: on his soapbox. He was not happy, not pleased with
- 8:09Speaker 2: the end of the college football season.
- 8:10Speaker 3: He went on a ran.
- 8:11Speaker 2: He said, this is supposed to be the pinnacle of
- 8:14Speaker 2: our sport, meaning the championship game, the destination for every player,
- 8:17Speaker 2: coach fan. Clatt on his soapbox ranted, Yet somebody decided
- 8:25Speaker 2: that playing the national Championship on a Monday night deep
- 8:28Speaker 2: into the NFL playoffs was a good idea. Clatt grumbled,
- 8:33Speaker 2: the mismanagement of college football has been egregious.
- 8:38Speaker 3: Close quote.
- 8:39Speaker 2: All right, so Fox Sports college football pundit Joel Clatt not.
- 8:45Speaker 3: Even really implying.
- 8:46Speaker 2: I think he just laid it all out for you
- 8:48Speaker 2: that college football made a terrible mistake by playing the
- 8:53Speaker 2: national title game in essentially late January and the NFL
- 8:59Speaker 2: playoffs going on.
- 9:01Speaker 3: Are you going to vote down or you're going to
- 9:05Speaker 3: vote up on this?
- 9:06Speaker 2: You're gonna vote up or you're gonna vote down on
- 9:08Speaker 2: Joel Clatt saying that this was a terrible mistake by
- 9:12Speaker 2: the gods of college football. So I'm going to downvote
- 9:16Speaker 2: this take. I'm going to downvote this take. I disagree
- 9:19Speaker 2: with Joel Klatt. Times are a change in and Clatt
- 9:24Speaker 2: knows exactly who's responsible for this change. It's not exactly
- 9:29Speaker 2: like it's a secret. This is not some kind of
- 9:32Speaker 2: classified document. It's this is not a national security issue here,
- 9:37Speaker 2: he said, somebody decided to play the National Championship game
- 9:41Speaker 2: on Monday. Mother, Well we know who that is. Two
- 9:45Speaker 2: letters on the wheel of fortune, Can I get a
- 9:47Speaker 2: T and a V? Yes, TV. They're the ones that
- 9:51Speaker 2: are omnipresent. They're the ones that are the sugar daddy
- 9:55Speaker 2: of college sports. They're the ones calling shots. So it's
- 9:58Speaker 2: not mismanagement. It is a cost benefit analysis kind of obvious.
- 10:04Speaker 2: It's kind of obvious. They they're the ones that pay
- 10:06Speaker 2: the check. They buy the games and all that TV, ESPN, ABC,
- 10:10Speaker 2: everything's bigger in twenty twenty five college football.
- 10:13Speaker 3: It's the new world order of college football. And it's
- 10:17Speaker 3: much like animaniacs.
- 10:18Speaker 2: The people that put the TV together and college football,
- 10:21Speaker 2: they get together, all right, and they're like pinky in
- 10:23Speaker 2: the brain and it's like pinky sanjee brain, what are
- 10:27Speaker 2: we gonna do tonight?
- 10:27Speaker 3: And brain responds with the same thing we do every night,
- 10:31Speaker 3: try to take over the world. It's scientifical. The people
- 10:34Speaker 3: in charge who they try to figure out.
- 10:37Speaker 2: How many people can we get to watch the biggest
- 10:39Speaker 2: audience we can get to watch. They crunch the numbers,
- 10:41Speaker 2: They put a ven diagram together and they determine what
- 10:44Speaker 2: is the optimal time, the date and time to play
- 10:48Speaker 2: these games. Get the biggest bang for their buck, the
- 10:51Speaker 2: biggest bang for their buck, right, that's how you do it.
- 10:54Speaker 2: Can't compete with the NFL playoffs head to head, although
- 10:59Speaker 2: I mean if you could compete.
- 11:00Speaker 3: You would play on the weekend. You can't do that.
- 11:03Speaker 2: You gotta play on a Monday night or a Thursday
- 11:04Speaker 2: or whatever Friday, so you schedule around those games. The
- 11:09Speaker 2: NCAA players actually benefits trickle down economics because more exposure
- 11:13Speaker 2: brings higher ratings, which means more money for advertisers, which
- 11:17Speaker 2: means more money will filter down to the players via
- 11:20Speaker 2: nil deals because the sponsors will want to be associated
- 11:24Speaker 2: with the players and more money in the free agency
- 11:27Speaker 2: of college football. There'll be a quiz on this later.
- 11:30Speaker 2: It's not that hard, all right, Final five. So we
- 11:33Speaker 2: go now to Michael Vick. He's the head coach. Now,
- 11:36Speaker 2: Michael Vick, he was introduced recently, is the head coach
- 11:40Speaker 2: at Norfolk State.
- 11:41Speaker 3: That's a school you've never heard of in Virginia.
- 11:44Speaker 2: Michael Vick says his goal with Norfolk State coaching football
- 11:50Speaker 2: there is to eventually get a Power five job at
- 11:53Speaker 2: a job at a Power five school. So how does
- 11:57Speaker 2: this play out?
- 11:59Speaker 3: All right?
- 12:00Speaker 2: So the obvious thing he is you follow the yellow
- 12:02Speaker 2: brick road of Deon Sanders. The only reason Michael Vick
- 12:05Speaker 2: has a job is because of Deon Sanders. If Deon
- 12:07Speaker 2: Sanders had fallen on his face, and there had been
- 12:09Speaker 2: no buzz with Deon Sanders, Michael Vick would not be
- 12:12Speaker 2: coaching Norfolk State.
- 12:13Speaker 3: He wouldn't. Right, This is.
- 12:14Speaker 2: A whistle stop tour for Michael Vick, and he's got
- 12:19Speaker 2: the whistle.
- 12:19Speaker 3: In his mouth. He's got an opportunity make something out
- 12:22Speaker 3: of nothing. It was the great P. T.
- 12:24Speaker 2: Barnum, the man that pointed out the importance of the
- 12:28Speaker 2: Novelty Act. And without promotion, foresaid Novelty Act, something terrible happens.
- 12:34Speaker 2: You don't have promotion nothing. So whether Michael Vick wins
- 12:39Speaker 2: or not, his secondary Deon Sanders had some success at
- 12:44Speaker 2: Jackson State, but he wasn't God's gift to coaching at
- 12:47Speaker 2: Jackson State. But he built up a lot of good karma, right,
- 12:52Speaker 2: that was the most important thing. And so he then
- 12:54Speaker 2: ran off to Colorado and got that job. Michael Vick,
- 12:57Speaker 2: by coaching standards, is getting paid peanut nuts.
- 13:00Speaker 3: He's got a four year contract to coach.
- 13:02Speaker 2: Football at a school with really no budget and four
- 13:06Speaker 2: hundred thousand dollars annually the base salary at Norfolk State,
- 13:12Speaker 2: which is kind of like working at your first job
- 13:15Speaker 2: at the car wash or as a lifeguard during the summer.
- 13:21Speaker 2: It's a good starter job. Get your feet wet a
- 13:24Speaker 2: little bit, see where it goes. And Michael Vick is
- 13:27Speaker 2: dating himself because there is no more Power five. I
- 13:31Speaker 2: don't know if you heard about this, but the PAC
- 13:32Speaker 2: twelve was swallowed up. It was eaten by the other conferences.
- 13:36Speaker 2: So there is no more Power five. The PAC twelve
- 13:39Speaker 2: is dead. There's no more PAC twelve. So and really
- 13:42Speaker 2: there's really the Power two. It doesn't sound as good
- 13:44Speaker 2: to say the Power two. Sounds cool to say Power
- 13:47Speaker 2: five or Power four, but it's really the Power two.
- 13:50Speaker 3: It's the Big Ten, the reigning champions of.
- 13:53Speaker 2: College football from Ohio State, and it's the Southeastern Conference
- 13:58Speaker 2: who did not make the champion game. That's it. That's
- 14:01Speaker 2: the list right there. Those are the two power conferences. Now,
- 14:04Speaker 2: the smart money says, if Michael Vick knows what he's doing,
- 14:07Speaker 2: and that's on one side of the diagram, on the
- 14:11Speaker 2: other side of the diagram, you've got the.
- 14:13Speaker 3: Virginia Tech football program.
- 14:15Speaker 2: And if they start floundering along here, then there's a
- 14:19Speaker 2: collision course where Michael Vick is uscending and Virginia Tech
- 14:25Speaker 2: is descending, and then there's the point the sweet spot
- 14:28Speaker 2: where they meet, and then when they meet, that presents
- 14:32Speaker 2: opportunity for Michael Vick to end up coaching his old school.
- 14:38Speaker 2: That seems to be pointing in that direction. If the
- 14:42Speaker 2: Hokies do the hokey pokey.
- 14:43Speaker 3: And start winning, and then I'll screw things up.
- 14:45Speaker 2: Deon Sanders has not gotten the Florida State Seminal job,
- 14:49Speaker 2: for example, although they have been not exactly taken off
- 14:52Speaker 2: there at Florida State.
- 14:53Speaker 3: We'll take your calls if you'd like.

- 15:28Speaker 2: take over the job in Dallas.
- 15:32Speaker 3: But which coach is it? You'll find out. We'll do that.

- 17:50Speaker 2: with a little hot college football talk. Why not college
- 17:52Speaker 2: football season over? And Ohio State the champions of college football?
- 17:58Speaker 2: And now the fallout from and that milkman Mike in
- 18:01Speaker 2: Colorado wrights and says, great second hour monologue about college
- 18:03Speaker 2: football competing with the NFL playoffs, Why don't they play
- 18:07Speaker 2: the championship game on Friday night and take these young
- 18:11Speaker 2: men back to their roots when they love the love.
- 18:14Speaker 3: Of the game began? Sure, why not.
- 18:19Speaker 2: Now, if you look at the calendar here, let's do
- 18:22Speaker 2: a little play along. So you look at the NFL calendar,
- 18:25Speaker 2: and college football starts usually a week or two before
- 18:29Speaker 2: the NFL usually a week or two. So we are
- 18:32Speaker 2: now heading into week number three of the NFL postseason.
- 18:37Speaker 3: Number three, this.
- 18:42Speaker 2: Weekend Championship Sunday, got the Commanders in the Eagles the
- 18:44Speaker 2: early game, and then the Bills and the Chiefs, and
- 18:47Speaker 2: there'll be a new episode of Benny Versus the Penny
- 18:50Speaker 2: up again this weekend Championship weekend in the NFL, which
- 18:52Speaker 2: is very exciting. So then you've got a dead week,
- 18:58Speaker 2: Week four, followed by the Super Bowl, and the Super
- 19:02Speaker 2: Bowl will be played.
- 19:05Speaker 3: What's the date on the Super what're we looking at here?
- 19:07Speaker 3: It's like, I think it's the ninth, Yeah, February ninth.
- 19:11Speaker 2: That is great, February ninth, So the second of February,
- 19:15Speaker 2: that Sunday and the first of February. Was texting somebody
- 19:19Speaker 2: the other day and they were like, well, eventually, when
- 19:21Speaker 2: they keep adding teams to college football, the sweet spot
- 19:24Speaker 2: for college football would be to have the championship game
- 19:28Speaker 2: on that Sunday where there's no NFL game. They have
- 19:33Speaker 2: that fugazy Pro Bowl thing, which is like they play
- 19:35Speaker 2: patty Cake and stuff like that and they have water
- 19:37Speaker 2: balloon toss and huluh.
- 19:40Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, that's the Pro Bowl. Now. The players are
- 19:42Speaker 3: such worses. That's what they do with the Pro Bowl.
- 19:44Speaker 2: So so why not just have the college football championship
- 19:48Speaker 2: game that Sunday prior to the Super Bowl or that weekend.
- 19:52Speaker 3: Maybe you don't do it on Sunday, maybe you're on Saturday,
- 19:54Speaker 3: but just have it then.
- 19:56Speaker 2: Sunday is typically a better day for TV viewing than Saturday,
- 19:59Speaker 2: so you would probably play that on a Sunday night,
- 20:03Speaker 2: the national championship game in college football, and just have
- 20:06Speaker 2: it lineup, have it coincide. It's pro football anyway. Players
- 20:09Speaker 2: are getting paid, everyone's coaches is getting paid. It's free agency.
- 20:13Speaker 2: It's that's what it is. So just set up the
- 20:15Speaker 2: schedule where eventually you have that ready to go. Fergdog

- 21:07Speaker 2: But wait, it's medical. It's not weed or grass, it's medical.
- 21:10Speaker 2: Since government is making their profit over six million dollars
- 21:16Speaker 2: last year.
- 21:18Speaker 3: Yeah, wow, you.
- 21:20Speaker 5: Think that only if they took that away from individual
- 21:23Speaker 5: businesses that person remember back in the old day where
- 21:26Speaker 5: you had to get it on the streets. Wow, what
- 21:28Speaker 5: a business to take from the people.
- 21:30Speaker 6: That's correct.
- 21:31Speaker 2: Also, the sports bookie that now gambling, although California is
- 21:35Speaker 2: not legal, so I'm sure there's boys that have bookies
- 21:37Speaker 2: in California.
- 21:37Speaker 3: Shouldn't be doing that. But you know it's wrong. You
- 21:39Speaker 3: should never be doing that. Bad, don't do that.
- 21:42Speaker 5: Never, never, never mat in trouble unless you blame someone else.
- 21:47Speaker 3: Yeah. Well, it's it's like anything you know, as long
- 21:50Speaker 3: as the government gets their share, it's legal, right.
- 21:52Speaker 2: You can, you know, say the same drugs that people
- 21:55Speaker 2: are dealing on the street. If you wearing a coat
- 21:58Speaker 2: and you're working at a drug store, you're in good shape.
- 22:02Speaker 3: But they worked out in the street. Government's not getting
- 22:04Speaker 3: their money. It's a bit of a problem.
- 22:07Speaker 2: Yeah, naughty, naughty if you're a pookie, but you're not
- 22:11Speaker 2: giving a cut of that money the government.
- 22:12Speaker 3: It's a problem.
- 22:13Speaker 2: And they don't like that. They want their cut. They
- 22:15Speaker 2: want their cut of the pie. DJ spin rights and says, hey, Benjamin,

- 22:59Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm in the the golf boom.
- 23:02Speaker 2: Oh man, Now I'm not gonna make a joke about
- 23:05Speaker 2: a female drive.
- 23:06Speaker 3: I'm not doing that.
- 23:07Speaker 2: You guys keep sending me the same jokes about a
- 23:09Speaker 2: female driver and all that.
- 23:11Speaker 3: And she she did.
- 23:12Speaker 2: Not anticipate the degree of the turn.
- 23:19Speaker 3: That's classic.
- 23:21Speaker 2: I'll take these Ohio State players and I'll get my
- 23:24Speaker 2: show for your VIP tour underneath the stadium and just crashed.
- 23:29Speaker 2: And so they just got out. They were like all right,
- 23:31Speaker 2: they got out and started of wanting how soon before
- 23:35Speaker 2: they call one of those billboard lawyers. They're like, wait
- 23:37Speaker 2: a minute, hold on a second. They weren't really holding
- 23:38Speaker 2: on and there's not real seat belts. Oh man, right
- 23:42Speaker 2: into the wall. Bam bam, bam, bam bam bam. Right there,
- 23:47Speaker 2: all right is the Ben Mahlor Show. And we'll go
- 23:51Speaker 2: to the calls and see who do we have.
- 23:54Speaker 7: You got me hear you all say, oh yeah, go birds,
- 24:05Speaker 7: go birds.
- 24:05Speaker 3: That's your mayor, Philadelphia, that's your honorable mayor right there, classy. Absolutely,
- 24:10Speaker 3: let's go to the phones.
- 24:11Speaker 2: We'll say a Lota Alameda lou Is calling Alameda lo
- 24:15Speaker 2: is becoming a regular.
- 24:16Speaker 3: All of a sudden, you used to only call every
- 24:18Speaker 3: once in a while.
- 24:18Speaker 8: Hello, Alameda, lou Hey, what's going on?
- 24:22Speaker 9: Ben? It's Alamedalu here in the beautiful city of Alameda
- 24:26Speaker 9: by the Bay.
- 24:27Speaker 10: Oh.
- 24:27Speaker 9: I love it here. It's very historical.
- 24:29Speaker 10: You know.
- 24:29Speaker 9: I worked at a bar. I'm a big Steph Curry fan. Actually,
- 24:33Speaker 9: I have a lot of fans that come by after
- 24:35Speaker 9: the games. You know, only in Alameda will you see
- 24:38Speaker 9: a guy reading a novel at a bar when he's
- 24:41Speaker 9: having a martini while I'm serving it to him. But hey,
- 24:44Speaker 9: you know, that's not really the reason why I called
- 24:46Speaker 9: that much. I had a verbal on with Todd Linscott
- 24:51Speaker 9: and then I continued it off the air, and we
- 24:54Speaker 9: continued to direct messages, and then you know, I told
- 24:57Speaker 9: him I hate him so much, but to have good life.
- 25:00Speaker 9: So I thought it was okay that I said that,
- 25:02Speaker 9: because you know, when you're saying it to a blind person,
- 25:05Speaker 9: you might you might say something real threatening, but if
- 25:07Speaker 9: you come to have a good life, it sounds a
- 25:09Speaker 9: lot better at the end. So that's how you get
- 25:11Speaker 9: off the hook with that one. You know, Hey, Lorena,
- 25:14Speaker 9: I have a question. You know, I'm from San Francisco here,
- 25:17Speaker 9: you know, Alameda am Cisco.

- 25:44Speaker 9: book about San Francisco from the nineteen eighties. I don't
- 25:46Speaker 9: know if you can key it up right now, but
- 25:48Speaker 9: it's a pretty influential book when it comes to the
- 25:51Speaker 9: dating scene.
- 25:52Speaker 4: You know.
- 25:52Speaker 9: So Lorena, you you might be a doctor too. So

- 30:51Speaker 2: The word is the bird.
- 30:52Speaker 3: That's the way we do it here, clearly. Let's go. Now,
- 30:55Speaker 3: let's say hello to Eenie Meenie, miney Moe.
- 30:58Speaker 2: We go to Buffalo, New York, where the Bill's Mafia
- 31:02Speaker 2: will be leaving New York and heading over to Kansas
- 31:05Speaker 2: City for a hostile takeover, or so they think.
- 31:08Speaker 3: No, he hung up, All right, I won't go to
- 31:10Speaker 3: bill Mafia, guys, screw him.
- 31:11Speaker 2: Let's go to truck or Don then instead, Hello, truck
- 31:14Speaker 2: or Don not part of Bill's mafia.
- 31:18Speaker 8: I'm not part at Bill's mafia.
- 31:24Speaker 3: Here we go, Buck, guys, here we go.
- 31:28Speaker 8: Well, I only got three things for you. You were
- 31:31Speaker 8: a touchdown one. So the first item was the NFL
- 31:36Speaker 8: Thursday Night games. Do you have the numbers on how
- 31:39Speaker 8: many viewers.
- 31:40Speaker 10: They have for that game?
- 31:42Speaker 9: Could?
- 31:43Speaker 8: I believe that if, as you already said, if they
- 31:49Speaker 8: played the game on Sunday like an NFL game the
- 31:54Speaker 8: NCAA Championship, I think you would have severalar numbers. But
- 32:00Speaker 8: if you don't put it on the weekend, you'll have
- 32:02Speaker 8: Thursday Night. Thursday Night numbers.
- 32:06Speaker 3: I don't have them in front of me.
- 32:08Speaker 2: They're big enough ratings where Amazon paid a gazillion dollars
- 32:12Speaker 2: to have the Thursday Night contract, so they're getting enough
- 32:15Speaker 2: bang for their buck. But as you know, because you're
- 32:18Speaker 2: kind of connected, Truck or don the only people watch
- 32:22Speaker 2: live is sports, and the only sport.
- 32:25Speaker 3: They really watch live is the NFL.
- 32:27Speaker 2: So there's nothing that can really compete side by side
- 32:31Speaker 2: with the NFL. So if they could, they put NFL
- 32:34Speaker 2: on every night, because they get so much in terms
- 32:37Speaker 2: of audience compared to every other show.
- 32:39Speaker 8: I'm saying I understand that, But when there's one hundred
- 32:43Speaker 8: thousand people sitting in a college stadium, and not just
- 32:48Speaker 8: one of them. I'm saying throughout a college program, whether
- 32:53Speaker 8: you're at Georgia, whether you're at Alabama, whether you're at LSU.
- 32:59Speaker 8: I just don't believe that there's such a small viewing
- 33:03Speaker 8: of college football.
- 33:04Speaker 2: Well there is, because I know you're a college football fan,
- 33:08Speaker 2: Trucker down. But it's a regional situation where the NFL,
- 33:13Speaker 2: for some reason, people care about what Jacksonville does to
- 33:17Speaker 2: hire a coach, or Seattle where they don't.
- 33:21Speaker 3: You know, if you're.
- 33:21Speaker 2: A fan of the Southeastern Conference, you're probably not that
- 33:24Speaker 2: into the Big Ten or vice versa. You love your
- 33:28Speaker 2: school and maybe you hate your rivals, but you're not
- 33:31Speaker 2: that into it.
- 33:32Speaker 3: That's generally how it goes.
- 33:34Speaker 8: Okay, accept the point, But to me, football is football,
- 33:38Speaker 8: and everyone loves football loves football.
- 33:43Speaker 3: Hold on, hold, I say we'll get to all on
- 33:45Speaker 3: James Man, but Trucker, Trugger down. Here's the deal. So
- 33:48Speaker 3: if the National Championship Game had been like Boise State
- 33:52Speaker 3: versus Oregon, you would have been just as excited to
- 33:55Speaker 3: watch that. Of course, time.
- 33:59Speaker 8: I think you want me to answer your question so
- 34:02Speaker 8: your question, what I watch it. Of course I'd watch it.
- 34:05Speaker 3: Well, you'd watch it, but you wouldn't be like hanging
- 34:07Speaker 3: on the edge of your seat. It wouldn't be like
- 34:08Speaker 3: I gotta watch this.
- 34:09Speaker 8: It wouldn't no, because those are not my teams.
- 34:12Speaker 3: That's the point. See, that's the point.
- 34:15Speaker 10: So if you did.
- 34:15Speaker 8: That with the Jacksonville Jaguars and you identified that with
- 34:21Speaker 8: NFL team, I would say that they're not going to
- 34:25Speaker 8: draw a large rating because they're not popular teams.
- 34:29Speaker 2: Well, in my lifetime, we have seen teams with no
- 34:32Speaker 2: national fan base, like the Arizona Cardinals, the Carolina Panthers
- 34:37Speaker 2: have been in the Super Bowl and it obviously didn't matter.
- 34:40Speaker 2: People watched the Jacksonville was in the championship game, the
- 34:44Speaker 2: AFC championship game against the Patriots a few years back,
- 34:47Speaker 2: and so.
- 34:48Speaker 3: People tuned in. But we gotta leave it there. But
- 34:50Speaker 3: thank you, say, I'd be safe.
- 34:51Speaker 2: I know the weather sucks right now, so there's a
- 34:53Speaker 2: trucker dawn cruising around.
- 34:56Speaker 3: Nick Saban.
- 34:59Speaker 2: Nick Saban has given a endorsement for the Dallas Callboy
- 35:02Speaker 2: coaching job. He said recently that he would like to
- 35:06Speaker 2: see Dion Sanders get that job, so Dion Sanders.
- 35:12Speaker 3: According to Nick Saban, that's what he wants to see get.
- 35:14Speaker 2: The job, although there are reports that there will not
- 35:17Speaker 2: be a formal interview between Jerry Jones and Dion Sanders.
- 35:22Speaker 3: Stay tuned. The plot will thicken in Dallas.
- 35:27Speaker 2: Gonna have Mallard of the third degree. That is coming
- 35:29Speaker 2: up in a moment. We'll get to the Baseball Hall
- 35:31Speaker 2: of Fame next hour.
- 35:31Speaker 3: But here's a little appetizer till we get to the
- 35:33Speaker 3: Baseball Hall of Fame.
- 35:35Speaker 2: With the insta trivia, Blank had the lowest debut vote
- 35:41Speaker 2: percentage to eventually be elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame.
- 35:46Speaker 3: Now, that's since nineteen sixty six. That's when they go.
- 35:49Speaker 3: That's how far back they go.
- 35:50Speaker 2: But that's that's a long time now, that's almost seventy years.
- 35:55Speaker 2: So again, here's the answer, trivia. Blank had the lowest

- 38:19Speaker 6: of good football left in me. I'll be playing football
- 38:22Speaker 6: next year, that much I know Ben. Will he be
- 38:25Speaker 6: playing it with the Rams?
- 38:26Speaker 2: Well, he could be playing it with his kids. I
- 38:28Speaker 2: don't know, kids in the neighborhood park. The indicators are
- 38:32Speaker 2: he will not be with the Rams next year. The
- 38:34Speaker 2: Rams haven't out on their contract. They'd have to pay
- 38:37Speaker 2: him if they keep him almost thirty million dollars and
- 38:39Speaker 2: he's a number two or number three receiver.
- 38:41Speaker 3: He was really a number three receiver this year.

- 38:53Speaker 6: Former quarterback turned analyst Chris Simms had an interesting take
- 38:56Speaker 6: on the Mark Andrews drop over the weekend. He said,
- 38:59Speaker 6: Mark Andrews, he needs to catch it. Don't get me wrong,
- 39:01Speaker 6: but Lamar Jackson, making fifty five million a year, he
- 39:04Speaker 6: double clutched it and threw it like a dart. He
- 39:06Speaker 6: made it as hard as possible, as hard as it
- 39:08Speaker 6: could possibly be for a wide open touchdown.
- 39:11Speaker 3: Ben does he have a point? Yeah, I mean he's not.
- 39:14Speaker 2: I've heard Boomersiasin said something similar. I guess, Sims. I
- 39:18Speaker 2: mean these quarterbacksually like, well, he didn't fund he wasn't
- 39:22Speaker 2: fundamentally right Lamar on that throw. I you know, I'm
- 39:25Speaker 2: not gonna get into the techno, so but yeah, still
- 39:27Speaker 2: Mark andrew should have caught. But he was not a
- 39:29Speaker 2: perfect pass. But Andrews should he got to catch the ball.
- 39:31Speaker 2: I mean it bounced off his chest. For God's sakes,
- 39:34Speaker 2: I mean that's em. It's like Baul bounced off your face.
- 39:37Speaker 2: What are you doing all right?
- 39:39Speaker 3: Next?
- 39:40Speaker 6: John Calipari and Arkansas fell to own five an SEC
- 39:43Speaker 6: play Saturday, and an anonymous rival SEC coach said the
- 39:46Speaker 6: fear is gone and that the coach.
- 39:48Speaker 3: Is becoming archaic.
- 39:49Speaker 6: Ben, do you think the game has passed John Calipari?
- 39:51Speaker 3: By no, He's just got to find better plays.
- 39:55Speaker 2: He would just overwhelm everyone at Kentucky and the other
- 39:58Speaker 2: places he's coached with raw talent. But now the other
- 40:01Speaker 2: schools have caught up. But he's just got to pay
- 40:03Speaker 2: for better players.
- 40:04Speaker 3: I guess. But I'm not gonna say he's washed up.
- 40:06Speaker 3: How did we do? He passed? I pass. That's a win.
- 40:09Speaker 3: I won, winner, Ben Mather, Winner, I won the game.
