• 1:51
  Speaker 1: This portion of the Ben Maler Show on Fox made
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: possible in part my are friends at tire Rack.
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: That's right, for over forty years. It's a long time.
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: Tyrack is and helping customers find the right tires for how,
• 2:02

• 2:17
  Speaker 1: Show b So our lead this hour is from the bookstore.
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: That's right, the bookstore. They still have them, not many,
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: but they still have them.
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: So do you know the name d Marie Smith? You
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: know who that is? You know that name?
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: This guy was the NFL players associations are for almost
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: a generation, from twenty oh nine to twenty twenty three.
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: So he just got kicked out of there a few
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: years ago. But of course, anytime you have a position
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: of prominence, it's easy to sell a book. So you
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: go to a publisher and say I got a book.
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: So he guided the union through. There was a lockout
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: that didn't work out so well.
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: There were some.
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: Very public spats between ownership and the union. There was
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: battles over arbitration lawsuits against the NFL. So De Marie
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: Smith guided the union through all that. And just to
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: prove that he did it, he has written a book.
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: It's not out yet, three hundred and fifty four page
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: book called.
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: Turf Wars is the name of the book.
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: And in the book, because the excerpts have gotten out,
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: he released many of them, I understand. And he took
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: shots at NFL owners, NFL big shots. The guy that
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: ran the union for the NFL described the commissioner, Roger
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: Goodell as.
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: Cold, dark void.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: He described him, he said of the Cowboys owner, he said,
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: if Jerry Jones saw a dollar bill on the ground,
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: I truly believe he'd stop and pick it up, he said.
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: Smith also called.
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: The collective ownership of the NFL the cabal of greedy billionaires.
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: But wait, there's more.
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: Now, this guy unloaded on Aaron Rogers. That's right, he
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: got in the book. What's in the book Aaron Rodgers.
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: So if you haven't heard about this, yet among other things,
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: the guy that ran the union, which Aaron Rodgers is
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: a member of, called Aaron Rodgers the god of cheese,
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: said nation who was isolated and dismissive. That was his
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: description of how Rogers was during the Union get together.
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: As Rogers protested the seventeenth game being added to the schedule,
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: he was upset about that. According to the book, Rogers
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: sat in the back row of the meeting room and
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: issued a loud sigh, standing up, and then had a
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: dramatic exit.
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: So he sighed and exit. He exited the room an.
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: Incredible quarterback, the book wrote the de Maurice Smith wrote,
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: there said incredible quarterback, and then he said impressive antagonist.
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: Impressive antagonist. So let us discuss the question. Aaron Rodgers,
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: I just laid it out, described as isolated and dismissive
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: and an impressive antagonist in this new book from the
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: former head of the NFL Players Association.
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: How much credence? How much credence do you give this?
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: So my views on this, I've got gold medallion Berger,
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: but not a cheeseburger and Frank Caliendo and we will
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: combine all of these things together and we are going
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: to make the malard pizza, which has been on the
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: menu at a couple of mom and pop shops but
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: not in a while, the male pizza, the garlic onion
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: bell pepper, chef's kiss for mallard pizza. So my first
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: thought on this the Aaron Rodgers stories, how much credence?
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: The questions, how much credence do you give this book?
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: Like with everything written by a publisher, everything that's published,
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: you always say, well, they did it to sell books.
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: They did sell books.
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: But the way this works, if you put something in
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: there that's not true, you are held to a huge
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: financial liability. You're gonna have to pay a fair amount
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: of money if you publish something and it's not true,
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: you have to vet everything. Now, you could argue this
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: is a gray area and the guy that ran the
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: union is giving his interpretation. Is there anyone that recorded
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: these interactions?
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: That's his opinion. You're allowed to have your opinion. You
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: can't be sued for your opinion.
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: But de Marie Smith calling Aaron Rodgers an impressive antagonist.
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: Those two words, okay, those two words. Aaron Rodgers is
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: going to treat that. I'll tell you how he's gonna
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: treat it. He's gonna treat it like a solid gold medallion.
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: That is a bragging rights booster. Impressive antagonist is the
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: highest compliment you can give a man who stood up
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: to the NFL Union, who stood up to Roger Goodell
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: in the NFL, and stood up to the media echo chamber.
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: So the idea that Aaron Rodgers is somehow upset by that,
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: I find that hard to believe. Rogers did not play
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: the game off the field, right, He did not engage,
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: and he did not fall into lockstep off the field.
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: He didn't do what they wanted him to do, I mean,
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: go through it. He did not.
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: Kneel down, he didn't comply, and he never apologized for that.
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: And so he continues to be the villain. But he's
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: not upset about that. That's a great badge of honor.
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: Impressive antagonists tremendous.
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: Now.
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: Secondly, staying with the theme here, mister Rogers neighborhood.
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: So social media was a buzz.
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: They had a field day why because of photos involving
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers.
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: Has Aaron Rodgers finally shown for the first time his wife, No, no, no, no.
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers. Instead, there were some photos posted of him
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: working out. You know how we love workout photos. Oh yeah,
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: thumbs up to that. So he was working out with
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: Steeler pass catchers, including DK metcalff. Now, did this happen
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: at the confluence where the Ohio River is from? No?
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: Did this happen somewhere out on a sleepy grass field
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: in western Pennsylvania.
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: No.
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: Did Aaron Rodgers take DK metcalf on and the other receivers.
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: Did he take them to somewhere I don't know, in
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: Hawaii or somewhere in the Bahamas and have them work out?
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: No, Rogers brought DK metcalf.
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: And the other Steeler receivers and tight ends to Malibu, Malibu,
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: Casa Garcia or Casa Rogers rather in in Malibu.
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: And the question, so, Aaron Rodgers, these photos.
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: Have made the rounds of him with the Steeler wide
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: receivers and all that DK metcalf in Malibu.
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: Is this something or is this nothing? So I have
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: noticed this.
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: It came under my radar because the social media world,
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: which is the matrix most of it's not true, going crazy.
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: The bots are going crazy over this. Oh man, look
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: at the leadership of Aaron Rodgers. That's team bonding. That's
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: gonna help the Steelers when they get to the playoffs. Now,
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: for me, it's it's a burger. It's not a cheeseburger.
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: It's a nothing burger. Malibu is not where you find
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: the road to the super Bowl. Glory road is not
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: in Malibu. Right, It's where you find influencers if you
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: need to go to rehab. There's some great rehab clinics
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: in Malibu, very expensive life coaches.
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: Life, they've got that, They've got those those fruit bowl
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: they got everything you'd possibly want there except the path.
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: To a super Bowl. Right. And it's not about chemistry.
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: That's a bunch of nonsense. It's a photo op. That's
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: the way it is.
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: Rod the ambassador of Bakersfield knows that Aaron Rodgers is
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: a brand. He's always been a brand. And this is
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: not about building the proper timing with DK Metcalf.
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: And the receivers. This is about building engagement on the socials.
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: Right on the socials.
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: They're not preparing, the Steelers are not preparing in Malibu
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: for a.
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: January game in Baltimore or in buff No.
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers perfecting that that magical you know, that golden
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: hour where the lighting is perfect, and it's just you
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: don't even need a filter on Instagram because everything's just perfect.
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: That's what's going on all right now?
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: A final thought to can Za City, were we go
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: can Tza City?
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: And that is where we mentioned this earlier. We're getting
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: to a little more here.
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: Travis Kelce has pretty much come out and said he
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: is planning on having a broadcasting career. He is eyeing
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: broadcasting after his NFL career is over when he retires,
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: which will likely be in the next year or two.
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: So does that make get tangled? Does it make get
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: tangle that Travis Kelce is planning on going into broadcasting.
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: So my first thought is I'm flattered that someone would
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: like to do what I do for a living.
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: Welcome to the club.
• 11:59
  Speaker 3: Uh.
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: And Travis Kelce has not even retired yet, and I
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: will guarantee.
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: You the media world already treating him like he has.
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: And they're they're like, Oh, he's the next Tony Romo
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: or Tom Brady, greg Olsen, any of those cats. Right
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: that Kelsey is going to be America's next great pig
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: skin philosopher.
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: Just throw a microphone in his face.
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: Now, that part of it makes me want to puke
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: in my mouth, right, and it just does. And you
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: think this is a country of football fans that desperately need,
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: desperately need, and have been crying out for another ex
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: jock with a microphone and a mandate to mangle the
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: English language in primetime, like Travis Kelcey will.
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: Now you can think Frank Caliendo, why not hire him?
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: Because Travis kelce as he put it, not my words,
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: his words, he said, the reason he thinks he'd be
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: a good broadcaster is because he's impersonated the broadcasters that
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: call the games. And he said it would be fun.
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: He thinks it would be fun to jump in there.
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: So years ago, there was this guy named Howard Cosell.
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: He's long dead, famous sportscaster, and he ranked and.
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: Raved about what he called the jockocracy.
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: This is forty five years ago, and it's only gotten worse.
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: The jockocracy was like, all you need is a helmet,
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: that's it. And if you have a helmet on your
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: resume in your past, and you will have a pulse.
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: Even then sometimes you don't need a pulse, you're good.
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: It's a conga line through the conga. It's a conga
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: line of former players turned instant analysts just to add water.
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: Travis Kelsey billed as the rare talent. I'm telling you
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: what they're already saying. They're already saying, this is a
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: rare talent. The reason Kelsey's going to get a Tom
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: Brady like contract is because the belief is he can
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: appeal to the crossover audience that the hardcore meat and
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: potatoes football fan will watch, and then the Taylor Swift crowd,
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: the swifties that couldn't tell you between a football and
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: a cantalope, that they'll also watch as long as Kelsey
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: and Taylor Swift are together, and all you need is
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: a little charisma, come up with a catchphrase, and that's it.
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: And then I will guarantee you there will be a
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: bidding war.
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: You'll have Amazon and NBC and CBS and ESPN and
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: Fox and all these people making a run at Travis Kelsey.
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: He will be the most sought after free agent in
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: sports media. He probably already is, and he's not even
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: available yet. So put that in your pipe and smoke it.
• 14:51
