0:25

3:51
Speaker 1: all about the sports. What kind of We will have
3:54
Speaker 1: lame jokes of the week coming up a little bit
3:55
Speaker 1: later this hour. But our lead is from Maryland, where
3:58
Speaker 1: Rick lives. Morning time so mister envypy has raised a
4:04
Speaker 1: hullabaloo in the microblogging world. You might not have seen it.
4:09
Speaker 1: Maybe you were not in that world. Good for you
4:11
Speaker 1: missing that world. So give you the thumbnail recap. Lamar
4:15
Speaker 1: Jackson randomly in the afternoon reposted a fan It was
4:21
Speaker 1: like a photo of a kid wearing a Lamar Jackson
4:25
Speaker 1: raven jersey. However, the verbiage on that post that Lamar
4:30
Speaker 1: Jackson clicked on and said, well, this is good, predicted
4:34
Speaker 1: that he would be traded to the Raiders. Now, this
4:40
Speaker 1: thing went viral, even though he attempted to cover his tracks.
4:44
Speaker 1: It went viral in theory, highlighting the fact that Lamar
4:50
Speaker 1: is dissatisfied with some things going on in Baltimore, and
4:54
Speaker 1: there's a lot to this. Now, Jackson immediately did attempt
4:58
Speaker 1: to cover the track and get rid of the evidence
5:01
Speaker 1: and tried to clarify that he only shared the post
5:04
Speaker 1: because it had an image of a cute little kid
5:06
Speaker 1: in a Ravens jersey and he didn't read the caption
5:10
Speaker 1: and all that stuff. So that is a good jumping
5:12
Speaker 1: off point. Let us discuss the question you got Ravens
5:16
Speaker 1: quarterback Lamar Jackson reposting a fan social media post with
5:24
Speaker 1: a kid speculating about him being traded to the Raiders.
5:27
Speaker 1: Is this harmless social media fun or something more nefarious?
5:34
Speaker 1: So my observations on this, I've got fire alarm, sneak, preview,
5:40
Speaker 1: and lifeboat, and we'll throw all these ingredients together and
5:45
Speaker 1: we're gonna make one of the great food dishes that
5:48
Speaker 1: comes out of Saint Louis, Missouri. Have you ever had
5:51
Speaker 1: toasted ravioli? That is a chef's kiss, It's the local
5:56
Speaker 1: delicacy there in sam Was. I guess no one ever
5:58
Speaker 1: thought about toasting ravioli before someone in Saint Louis. All right,
6:02
Speaker 1: so first of all, let's cut through the fog, not
6:07
Speaker 1: of war, the social media battlefield. Let's cut through the
6:11
Speaker 1: fog like a chef's knife through a ripe tomato. And
6:14
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson again reposting this this photo sending him to
6:19
Speaker 1: the Raiders. The language and all that stuff, and then
6:22
Speaker 1: he says, whoops, who goofed? I've got to know, And
6:26
Speaker 1: he said, I only liked it because it was a
6:28
Speaker 1: kid in a jersey and I wasn't reading it. Trip.
6:30
Speaker 1: That's the ticket, right, And it's just like men we
6:33
Speaker 1: only look at the Instagram booty models because we want
6:36
Speaker 1: to see what fashion tips they have for us. Absolutely,
6:38
Speaker 1: that's one hundred percent grad now using ben logic, all right,
6:42
Speaker 1: using ben logic, and we'll break it down. So there
6:46
Speaker 1: are three doors. Think of this like a game show.
6:49
Speaker 1: There's three doors behind door number one. Number one, you've
6:52
Speaker 1: got Lamar being just sloppy and lazy and clueless, and
6:58
Speaker 1: his thumb slipped and he was multitasking. He was maybe
7:02
Speaker 1: eating some orange chicken, playing a video game, and he
7:04
Speaker 1: just kind of took a brain nap. So that's door
7:06
Speaker 1: number one. Door number two is that this was an
7:10
Speaker 1: intentional act. It was a breadcrumb from Lamar j Acs,
7:15
Speaker 1: so he just it was intentional, and then he deleted
7:18
Speaker 1: it because he knew the internet is forever, and so
7:20
Speaker 1: he played dumb like a cat knocking a glass off
7:24
Speaker 1: the table, right, like a kiddy cat. You knocked the
7:26
Speaker 1: glass off in the class, I didn't do it. What
7:27
Speaker 1: are you looking to be for now? Door number three
7:31
Speaker 1: is that this was a combination of performance art and leverage. Right,
7:38
Speaker 1: if the goal was to light the echo chamber on fire, burn,
7:44
Speaker 1: maybe burn mission accomplished to some degree. This thing ricocheted
7:50
Speaker 1: around the echo chamber harder than a loose puck at
7:55
Speaker 1: a NHL practice. Right, context does matter. Lamar's contract runs
8:00
Speaker 1: through twenty twenty seven. The Ravens owner Bashati this week,
8:05
Speaker 1: I guess last week said that the goal is to
8:07
Speaker 1: extend Lamar Jackson. Now, we have heard whispers about irritation
8:13
Speaker 1: in Baltimore. There have been some rumors, some credible, some not,
8:18
Speaker 1: that the Raiders are a possibility for Lamar Jackson in
8:22
Speaker 1: a trade. They have the top pick in the draft,
8:23
Speaker 1: so it's an obvious move. You just trade that and
8:26
Speaker 1: a couple other picks and you can get Lamar Jackson
8:29
Speaker 1: and swap some picks and you're good to go. The
8:33
Speaker 1: Ravens are at a fork in the road. Now, this
8:36
Speaker 1: came out hours before they announced their new coach. Is
8:40
Speaker 1: it possible. Is it possible that the Ravens likely told
8:46
Speaker 1: Lamar before the announcement, we're going to hire Jesse Minter,
8:50
Speaker 1: the guy from the Chargers, the defensive guy, as the coach.
8:53
Speaker 1: So it's more likely than not that Lamar was in
8:57
Speaker 1: the loop, the loop, that he was aware of this.
9:00
Speaker 1: So is it possible that Lamar when he heard that
9:03
Speaker 1: news This was not who he wanted to get the
9:05
Speaker 1: head coaching job. He was annoyed by that. He popped
9:09
Speaker 1: up on X and started futzing around, and he saw
9:12
Speaker 1: this person that said, hey, I'd like to see this
9:16
Speaker 1: trade at predict Lamar is going to go to the Raiders.
9:18
Speaker 1: And he clicked on it and then immediately had like
9:21
Speaker 1: second thoughts. It's like, well, I probably shouldn't have done that.
9:24
Speaker 1: I click it, and you know the whole thing. So
9:28
Speaker 1: the Ravens, though, they're at the fork in the road
9:30
Speaker 1: because if they turn right, turn right, they extend. You
9:37
Speaker 1: extend the contract and Lamar stays in Baltimore, and that's it.
9:40
Speaker 1: If you go left your trade. The other option is
9:44
Speaker 1: standing pat that's the middle lane, and that goes right
9:47
Speaker 1: into a brick wall. You don't want to do that.
9:49
Speaker 1: You drive right into a brick wall. And the betting market,
9:52
Speaker 1: the gambling market says there's a twelve percent chance, a
9:55
Speaker 1: twelve percent chance that Lamar Jackson is traded prior to
10:00
Speaker 1: twenty seven, So low risk, a lot of noise, a
10:03
Speaker 1: lot of noise. Keep an eye on this one. I
10:06
Speaker 1: would keep an eye on this one. As we get
10:08
Speaker 1: to the silly season, in the NFL once all these
10:11
Speaker 1: playoff games are over. My experience has been that when
10:17
Speaker 1: you see smoke, it usually means someone's testing the fire alarm.
10:23
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, Like this was just kind
10:24
Speaker 1: of let's test the fire alarm. Wink wink, nudge, nudge,
10:27
Speaker 1: and Lamar still has plausible deniability. That is the way
10:31
Speaker 1: the game is played in the modern NFL. That's how
10:34
Speaker 1: this works. Now, secondly, we go to Dallas. How about
10:38
Speaker 1: them Cowboys. The search has been called off. Jerry Jones has,
10:43
Speaker 1: according to multiple reports, as this new defensive guru. The
10:48
Speaker 1: Cowboys are hiring thirty four year old Christian Parker as
10:54
Speaker 1: their new defensive coordinator. Who. Now, I present this based
11:03
Speaker 1: on the feedback that I'm getting from our listeners in
11:07
Speaker 1: the greater Dallas area. And I don't know some of you,
11:09
Speaker 1: probably not even in Dallas or just in Texas. It's
11:11
Speaker 1: kind of a big state, and so you send me
11:13
Speaker 1: some messages from time to time. And so they're very excited.
11:17
Speaker 1: Right the way this guy is being promoted as Christian Parker,
11:20
Speaker 1: who was with the Eagles, is genius, right, genius. So
11:25
Speaker 1: Dallas fans are buying into this. They're hyping up the
11:28
Speaker 1: former Eagles coach as the new defensive coordinator, Christian Parkers,
11:32
Speaker 1: a whiz kid the whiz Kid cometh. Do you buy
11:36
Speaker 1: the hype? Do you buy the hype when it comes
11:40
Speaker 1: to the new Dallas Cowboys defensive coordinator? So I'm going
11:44
Speaker 1: to go police with a capitol pep. You gotta be
11:48
Speaker 1: joking on this one. You've got to be joking on
11:50
Speaker 1: the idea that we're buying the hype. My default position,
11:53
Speaker 1: my default position is always no, you don't buy the
11:55
Speaker 1: hype with the Dallas Cowis. I enjoy the hype. I
11:58
Speaker 1: have fun with the hype. I'm in the hype business.
12:00
Speaker 1: I react to hype. Do I believe the hype? No? No,
12:03
Speaker 1: I am the referee and I am going to throw
12:06
Speaker 1: a flag on the field for excessive nonsense fifteen yard
12:10
Speaker 1: penalty for the Dallas Cowboys. This is a sneak preview
12:15
Speaker 1: of the blockbuster of the NFL off season. Every off
12:18
Speaker 1: season Cowboys off season theater. They dominate, they don't. They
12:24
Speaker 1: win all the awards, They win all the awards. They
12:26
Speaker 1: always get the girl, they always win the title. They do.
12:33
Speaker 1: That's what it is. The special effects are bigger every year.
12:36
Speaker 1: This is Jerry Jones rolling out the new Guardian of
12:39
Speaker 1: the Galaxy, complete with slobbering leaks to the media. Let's
12:44
Speaker 1: puffed the tires on this guy. So I didn't really
12:47
Speaker 1: know much about it. Christian Parker hasn't been even beta
12:51
Speaker 1: tested for this job. So we are in the Missouri
12:55
Speaker 1: show Me state of Mind here to show me state
12:58
Speaker 1: of Mind as the new defensive Quinta. You look at
13:02
Speaker 1: this guy Parker's resume, it looks shiny until you read
13:07
Speaker 1: the fine print. And you read the fine print, I
13:09
Speaker 1: don't know but that he was essentially his entire NFL
13:13
Speaker 1: career recently anyway, he's been riding the caboose on the
13:17
Speaker 1: Uncle Vic Traveling Circus train. Meaning I was in Denver
13:23
Speaker 1: with Fangio, I went to Miami, then I went to Philadelphia,
13:27
Speaker 1: and so he's in the caboose, which a nice view.
13:30
Speaker 1: It's not the steam engine, it's not the locomotive. It's
13:33
Speaker 1: not the locomotive. And the Cowboys could hire the way
13:37
Speaker 1: I've learned over the years, the Dallas Cowboys. I don't
13:39
Speaker 1: think I'm making this up. The Dallas Cowboys could hire
13:41
Speaker 1: mister potato Head as their defensive Wardet and the kool
13:45
Speaker 1: Aid sycophants. That crowd would rave about mister potato Head's
13:50
Speaker 1: ability to disguise coverages by swapping the glasses. A savant
13:54
Speaker 1: when it comes to defense, because not only the glasses,
13:57
Speaker 1: you got the different expressions with the mouth and the hat.
14:00
Speaker 1: That defense is all about confusing the opposition. And who
14:05
Speaker 1: does that better in the toy game than mister potato
14:08
Speaker 1: So clearly, mister potato ad is qualified to be a
14:10
Speaker 1: defensive coach for the Cowboys. So same clown car, new passengers,
14:16
Speaker 1: new passengers, and let's see. Let's see, we'll see what
14:20
Speaker 1: he does. Give me the greatest defensive coordinative of all
14:22
Speaker 1: time does such a great job. Jerry Jones fire Shotty
14:26
Speaker 1: and hires this guy as the head coach a year
14:28
Speaker 1: from now. I'll believe it when I see it. I
14:31
Speaker 1: believe it when I see it now. Final thought to Nashville,
14:33
Speaker 1: we go. Robert Salah, the failed coach of the Jets,
14:39
Speaker 1: was asked about his decision to join the Titans, and
14:43
Speaker 1: remember the Titans. Here's what Robert Salas said. He said,
14:46
Speaker 1: quote of the Tennessee job, this is the most desirable location,
14:52
Speaker 1: the most desirable location, the most desirable team, Salas stated,
14:58
Speaker 1: what I learned about the organization the more phone calls
15:03
Speaker 1: I made, Salah said, the more people I spoke to
15:06
Speaker 1: this building. As he was in the building, I feel
15:10
Speaker 1: like it fits me, will fit us. The best clothes quote.
15:16
Speaker 1: All right, question, would you translate the cryptic messaging from
15:22
Speaker 1: the new Titans coach Robert Sala for the regular guy?
15:25
Speaker 1: So I will translate the cryptic message for the regular guy.
15:29
Speaker 1: This is my word is bewitching. It is bewitching. Kill
15:32
Speaker 1: him with kindness. Keep in mind the term best means
15:35
Speaker 1: as good as all the rest. So really, what Robert
15:38
Speaker 1: Sala was saying that was a tell. He was like, yeah,
15:42
Speaker 1: this is the best, like every other job. Using the
15:47
Speaker 1: malar Rosetta stone to translate Robert Sala telling us again
15:51
Speaker 1: in the NFL's worst team in recent years, the Titans
15:54
Speaker 1: were the most desirable location. This is coach speak for
16:00
Speaker 1: this was the only chair that was open for me
16:05
Speaker 1: when the music stopped, or go. Had Baltimore called or
16:11
Speaker 1: Buffalo text Robert salap he would have been on the
16:15
Speaker 1: first flight with his neck pillow and his Gucci bag
16:21
Speaker 1: and he'd send out a gratitude tweet about one of
16:23
Speaker 1: those teams, but those calls never came because Robert Sala's
16:28
Speaker 1: resume still smells like the Jets' locker room mildew. It's
16:32
Speaker 1: a mil dewy resume and takes a lot of deep cleaning,
16:37
Speaker 1: a lot of deep cleaning to get rid of that
16:39
Speaker 1: mildew smell. And so this becomes reality TV. The Titans
16:43
Speaker 1: went full bachelor and they dimmed the lights dramatic pause
16:47
Speaker 1: and said, Robert Salah, whether you accept this rose? And
16:52
Speaker 1: Sally grabbed that rose with both hands like it was
16:54
Speaker 1: the last lifeboat off the Titanic. And we know that
16:58
Speaker 1: beggars can't be choosers. You got to take what you
17:00
Speaker 1: can get, play the cards, you dealt every other cliche.
17:03
Speaker 1: When you starve, I do know we're really hungry. When
17:08
Speaker 1: you're really hungry, you don't complain about the flavor of
17:12
Speaker 1: the chicken. And I see people complaining that, well, that
17:15
Speaker 1: person's not hungry. You know, if you're really starving, you'll
17:19
Speaker 1: eat dog food if you have to. So good luck
17:22
Speaker 1: to Robert Salad. As cam Ward pointed out, the Titans
17:25
Speaker 1: mantra is we ass so that's appropriate here. Good news
17:29
Speaker 1: is I'll be Benny Bright's side. The AFC South is
17:32
Speaker 1: ass and it's a walk in the park. You got
17:35
Speaker 1: Houston and Jacksonville who have no quarterback C J. Stroud
17:39
Speaker 1: and Trevor Lawrence. In big games anyway, those guys come
17:41
Speaker 1: with warning labels. In a playoff game, You've got Indie.
17:44
Speaker 1: We don't even know what's gonna happen there. That's a
17:47
Speaker 1: mystery box under center because Danny Dimes, who briefly became
17:52
Speaker 1: Indiana Jones, is hurt. And that said, you got Robert Salad.
17:56
Speaker 1: What was his mantra with the Jets. You remember what
17:57
Speaker 1: his montre was with the Jets, you don't. Mantra was
18:00
Speaker 1: all gas no break, All gas, no break, which sounds
18:04
Speaker 1: like a Kamakazi mission. And that was with the Jets.
18:07
Speaker 1: And so that ride ended up in a ditch, like
18:09
Speaker 1: an ox in the ditch. You might want to try
18:11
Speaker 1: something new, maybe go down to Pet Boys or something
18:13
Speaker 1: like that, to Ato Zone and invest in a brake pedal.
18:16
Speaker 1: But what do I know. I'm just doing the Overnight.

20:58
Speaker 1: with a food dish at blank. A food dish at blank,
21:03
Speaker 1: That is the Mallard riddle of the day. And see
21:07
Speaker 1: does anyone know the answer? We go to the great
21:11
Speaker 1: unwashed Femi's going with the Mallor mansion far out. Dave says,
21:16
Speaker 1: French Lake, Indiana. I wonder if he had Fried Larry Bird.

21:28
Speaker 1: I hope it comes with ranch like the the Ben

Speaker 1: Mallard chicken fingers and you get the get the honey mustard.
21:38
Speaker 1: You can get the Cajun if you want Cajun spice
21:40
Speaker 1: on that, but you get the honey mustard. And keep
21:42
Speaker 1: in mind, I have a rivalry at the landing because
21:45
Speaker 1: my guy, Bob Fesco, is the morning guy in Kansas City.
21:47
Speaker 1: Bob has a pretzel named after him, and he lies
21:51
Speaker 1: on his show and says that more people like the pretzel,
21:53

23:52
Speaker 1: The food's not that great media ambiance. Yeah, all right,
