- 0:52Speaker 1: won eight in a row. They did not cover the
- 0:54Speaker 1: spread against the Jets, but they did win and does
- 0:56Speaker 1: this win help elevate Patriots quarterback Drake May in the
- 1:01Speaker 1: MVP race. He was being serenaded with MVP rhythmic chanting
- 1:05Speaker 1: for New England. Also, the embattled Jets coach Aaron Glenn
- 1:11Speaker 1: said quarterback Justin Field did some really good things. He
- 1:15Speaker 1: passed for barely one hundred yards. How do you process
- 1:18Speaker 1: that nonsense from Aaron Glenn. We'll talk about that as well.
- 1:22Speaker 1: All of it's coming your way right now here.
- 1:25Speaker 2: It is our number one.
- 1:38Speaker 1: Show up and collect a victory.
- 1:42Speaker 2: Well kind of that's what happened.
- 1:44Speaker 1: Welcome in the beginning of another night of the Ben
- 1:50Speaker 1: Mahlor Show.
- 1:51Speaker 2: We are in the air a.
- 1:55Speaker 1: Rewhere as we chisel away at and we say the
- 2:01Speaker 1: buck stops here, literally, one dollar stops right here. It
- 2:06Speaker 1: might paycheck every night coast to coast, border to border
- 2:10Speaker 1: and beyond on the vast and unrelentingly powerful microphones of FSR,
- 2:16Speaker 1: am monating live from the drop as we drop back
- 2:21Speaker 1: to punt, something the Jets do a lot of from
- 2:25Speaker 1: the world famous Fox Sports Radio studios, as approved by
- 2:31Speaker 1: our friend Uncle Moe, formerly of Brooklyn, but now Uncle
- 2:35Speaker 1: MOI proud resident of the Garden State there in New Jersey.
- 2:40Speaker 1: But Dar lead, this hour is from that Thursday night
- 2:43Speaker 1: came this portion of the show made possible in part
- 2:45Speaker 1: by our friends at ty Iraq for over forty years,
- 2:49Speaker 1: Ty IRAQ has been helping customers like alf and Fergdog
- 2:52Speaker 1: find the right tires for how, what and where they drive,
- 2:56Speaker 1: ship fast and freed back by free road hazard protection
- 3:00Speaker 1: with convenient installation options like mobile tire installation.
- 3:04Speaker 2: Tire act dot Com.
- 3:06Speaker 1: The way the tire buying sure be so our lead
- 3:11Speaker 1: this hour from Foxborough as that was the stage. The
- 3:15Speaker 1: curtain went up on week eleven. We're into week eleven now.
- 3:20Speaker 1: The NFL season was billed as an AFC East mismatch.
- 3:25Speaker 1: If you go by the gambling line, you had Justin Fields,
- 3:28Speaker 1: who's pretending to be an NFL quarterback flying the Jets
- 3:31Speaker 1: with but the Jets it's not like a jumbo jet.
- 3:34Speaker 1: It's more like a prop plane where you have to
- 3:36Speaker 1: pedal for the thing to take off and a hop
- 3:40Speaker 1: skipping a jump to the Commonwealth there for a date
- 3:42Speaker 1: with Drake May and the Patriots. You had the Venerable
- 3:47Speaker 1: Al Michaels, good Old Al and Herbie on the call
- 3:50Speaker 1: on the Amazon. I'm not sure if you were watching
- 3:53Speaker 1: this game or not. It did not seem like a
- 3:56Speaker 1: game you had to watch. It was a mismatch coming
- 3:59Speaker 1: in and we we watched had no choice rookie Trayvon Henderson,
- 4:04Speaker 1: he's a Buckeye from Ohio States with three touchdowns so
- 4:08Speaker 1: like he was playing Northwestern again, two on the ground,
- 4:11Speaker 1: one via catch, and Drake May and the Patriots get
- 4:15Speaker 1: to win. The eight in a row is eight enough,
- 4:18Speaker 1: twenty seven to fourteen over the lowly pathetic Jets in
- 4:23Speaker 1: the Thursday night game. So the Pats at nine and two,
- 4:26Speaker 1: they matched their longest winning streaks. And some guy named
- 4:29Speaker 1: Brady in his final season before he defected to Tampa,
- 4:34Speaker 1: I was in twenty nineteen, and they've now, as we said,
- 4:37Speaker 1: they've won their first eight.
- 4:39Speaker 2: That year they won their first day Patriots three to
- 4:41Speaker 2: zero in the division. There's all kinds of numbers. I
- 4:44Speaker 2: don't even really care about any of that stuff.
- 4:45Speaker 1: But the good jumping off point is just the wide
- 4:49Speaker 1: angle lens in honor of the Jets from thirty thousand
- 4:52Speaker 1: feet up in the airs. Normally we start with the losers.
- 4:56Speaker 1: The Jets are so bad. How bad are they that Jet?
- 5:00Speaker 1: They're so bad that.
- 5:02Speaker 2: We're not going to start with them. That's so bad
- 5:03Speaker 2: they are. We'll start with New England. The debts aren't
- 5:06Speaker 2: even really compelling at this point, so.
- 5:08Speaker 1: Let us discuss the question, give me your impressions of
- 5:13Speaker 1: the Mike Vrabel twenty twenty five Patriots as they played
- 5:18Speaker 1: the Island game.
- 5:19Speaker 2: Here where now eleven weeks into the NFL season.
- 5:22Speaker 1: So my thoughts on this, I've got sorcerer's workshop, giant
- 5:26Speaker 1: inflatable pizza slice, and aromatherapy, and we will combine all
- 5:33Speaker 1: of these things together, and we are going to start
- 5:36Speaker 1: from scratch, is what we're going to do.
- 5:39Speaker 2: So a this one is simple. My impressions of the Patriots.
- 5:43Speaker 1: I've seen him play a few times, but just focused
- 5:46Speaker 1: in on this game, not flipping to any other game
- 5:48Speaker 1: because there's nothing else on the NBA is unwatchable. So
- 5:51Speaker 1: a work in progress is the way I will describe it.
- 5:55Speaker 1: And when I mean work, like the assembly line, there
- 5:59Speaker 1: might be some bolts there, but you don't really know yet.
- 6:02Speaker 2: You don't know yet. And the Patriots compared to years past,
- 6:05Speaker 2: the Gerard Mayo year, not years.
- 6:08Speaker 1: He was on there for one year, the Patriots obviously
- 6:10Speaker 1: have taken a quantum leap year and Mike Rabol going
- 6:13Speaker 1: into the Sorcerer's Workshop and essentially recreating it's kind of
- 6:18Speaker 1: like Tom Brady's dog, you know, Tom Brady had his
- 6:22Speaker 1: dog copied. Well, that's what Rabel's doing. He's like, all right,
- 6:26Speaker 1: let's go in there, and I want to recreate the
- 6:29Speaker 1: secret recipe we had in Tennessee. Not that they won,
- 6:33Speaker 1: not that they won, they didn't win in Nashville, but
- 6:37Speaker 1: they had competitive teams a year after year for the
- 6:39Speaker 1: most part, solid well coached football. And all the hokey
- 6:44Speaker 1: lines control the controller bowls and all that. Well, Mike
- 6:47Speaker 1: Rabel has cloned his old Titan teams. It would appear
- 6:52Speaker 1: a disciplined, somewhat physical, coachable, buttoned up.
- 6:58Speaker 2: They only had two penalty in this game.
- 7:00Speaker 1: They had no turnovers, and that's the Mike Rabels starter
- 7:04Speaker 1: pack right there.
- 7:06Speaker 2: No dumb penalties. The eight straight.
- 7:09Speaker 1: Wins is kind of cool, but let's not get too
- 7:11Speaker 1: carried away here. I'm not gonna be Benny Bright's out
- 7:14Speaker 1: in this. He played the Jets a full blown three
- 7:17Speaker 1: ring flying clown plane the Jets, and the Jets unloaded
- 7:22Speaker 1: the few name brand defensive players they had and they
- 7:26Speaker 1: rolled out a defense that had I think there were
- 7:29Speaker 1: some uber drivers in the secondary. There were some cfl
- 7:34Speaker 1: Rejets that were out there little flotsam, and then Jets
- 7:37Speaker 1: them flats them on the right, jetsam on the left,
- 7:40Speaker 1: and they had people that were likely one of you, like,
- 7:43Speaker 1: where's the locker room when they arrived at the stadium,
- 7:46Speaker 1: where do I go?
- 7:47Speaker 2: I don't know where that is?
- 7:48Speaker 1: And they were still the Jets mathematically in the game
- 7:53Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter of New England did not even
- 7:55Speaker 1: cover the line. The line was thirteen and a half.
- 8:00Speaker 1: I know some places it was twelve and a half
- 8:02Speaker 1: or thirteen. If it was thirteen, it was a push
- 8:05Speaker 1: and we got it at thirteen and a half on
- 8:07Speaker 1: benny versus the penny.
- 8:08Speaker 2: So we lost that but.
- 8:09Speaker 1: At home in an Island game short week all that
- 8:14Speaker 1: against the team that, Let's be honest, you the way
- 8:17Speaker 1: the Jets have gone, the joke that Aaron Glenn as
- 8:20Speaker 1: a coach, they probably should have been euthanized back in
- 8:24Speaker 1: week four the Jets, but they're still playing. The Jets
- 8:26Speaker 1: roster looks like they have decided to collect and a
- 8:31Speaker 1: group of spare parts from a garage sale and some
- 8:34Speaker 1: free stuff on offer up and Craigslist.
- 8:37Speaker 2: And there they are now.
- 8:38Speaker 1: Meanwhile, we also heard that Mike Rabel was handing out
- 8:42Speaker 1: blue collar shirts to players before the.
- 8:46Speaker 2: Game, if you saw.
- 8:47Speaker 1: That or not, it was a cute little adorable thing,
- 8:50Speaker 1: very pinterest coachable, subliminal message.
- 8:55Speaker 2: Kind of thing.
- 8:56Speaker 1: We're hard working all that stuff, of course, just the
- 9:00Speaker 1: whole bs stuff. Like the reality is, these guys wouldn't
- 9:04Speaker 1: last five minutes if they were with the factory boys
- 9:07Speaker 1: listening in El Paso or the heavy machinery guys there
- 9:11Speaker 1: in Ohio would kick them into Lake Eerie right away.
- 9:16Speaker 2: They tap out.
- 9:17Speaker 1: And it's always amusing to me when it's more of
- 9:20Speaker 1: an NFL thing. We see it in basketball somewhat too.
- 9:23Speaker 1: We don't see it in baseball, but when he hear's, oh,
- 9:25Speaker 1: we're going to be a blue collar team and all
- 9:26Speaker 1: that stuff, and I'm like, okay, that's that's cute, But like, no,
- 9:30Speaker 1: the average Patriots player is making three point two million.
- 9:34Speaker 2: Dollars this year.
- 9:36Speaker 1: The actual blue collar guys that Mike Rabel was trying
- 9:39Speaker 1: to invoke twenty five dollars and ninety cents an hour.
- 9:43Speaker 2: They get twenty five dollars and ninety cents an hour.
- 9:46Speaker 1: The annual salary for most who work in the factory
- 9:48Speaker 1: is about fifty four thousand dollars a year, so very
- 9:52Speaker 1: blue collar if you're making three point two million versus
- 9:55Speaker 1: fifty three, eight hundred and seventy two dollars. But yes,
- 9:58Speaker 1: very very out there. Nothing screams working class like a
- 10:04Speaker 1: twenty five year old defensive back who was also making
- 10:07Speaker 1: a million dollars in college and missus a tackle while
- 10:11Speaker 1: getting paid two point eight million dollars. Nevertheless, hey, listen,
- 10:15Speaker 1: Mike Rabel does have structure, the cupcakes and doughnuts schedules
- 10:19Speaker 1: working well. They're steamrolling through this thing as they should.
- 10:23Speaker 1: There's no real haunted houses out there for the Patriots.
- 10:27Speaker 2: Down the line.
- 10:28Speaker 1: They're doing what they're supposed to be doing, and the
- 10:31Speaker 1: real acid test will be down the line in the playoffs.
- 10:34Speaker 1: And meanwhile, page two, you've got Drake May who was
- 10:38Speaker 1: being serenaded with envy pete MV pete rhythmic chanting of
- 10:44Speaker 1: MVP New England obviously winning this game.
- 10:47Speaker 2: Here's Mike Vrabel. Mike Rabel, the coach.
- 10:51Speaker 1: Who was asked about the expectations and the rhythmic chanting.
- 10:55Speaker 3: Take a listen, and we have high expectations for Drake
- 10:58Speaker 3: has high expectations himself. He'll continue to improve and know
- 11:03Speaker 3: that he'll stay humble through this all and you know again.
- 11:07Speaker 3: And then as far as the performance tonight, I thought
- 11:09Speaker 3: it was you know again, in first view, you know,
- 11:13Speaker 3: pretty good. He was good enough to win and he
- 11:15Speaker 3: took care of the football.
- 11:18Speaker 2: Okay, that's a ringing endorsement.
- 11:20Speaker 1: Okay, So question does this win help elevate Drake may
- 11:27Speaker 1: the campaign of Drake May for the MVP Award?
- 11:30Speaker 2: Does it help him in the MVP race?
- 11:32Speaker 1: So I watched the entire game and I wrote on
- 11:36Speaker 1: my scorecard, No, I don't believe that would be acting.
- 11:39Speaker 2: We know this, you're a fanboy.
- 11:41Speaker 1: Okay, congratulations, but this was this is not a bad performance.
- 11:46Speaker 2: It was more about I consider it a lateral move.
- 11:49Speaker 1: That's what I thought it was. It was like treading
- 11:51Speaker 1: water and the kiddie pool. You're lying on a giant
- 11:53Speaker 1: inflatable pizza slice and you're sipping a cocktail with one
- 11:57Speaker 1: of those umbrellas in it, and that's kind of what
- 11:59Speaker 1: this was a little chillier than that, but that's where
- 12:02Speaker 1: we are with Drake may On. This game played one
- 12:04Speaker 1: of the NFL's you know not I don't say all
- 12:07Speaker 1: time wars, but they traded their top players. That's not
- 12:10Speaker 1: not a good defense. With the names they have out there,
- 12:12Speaker 1: the Jets right now.
- 12:14Speaker 2: And he didn't really go turbotastic. It was a mixed bag.
- 12:17Speaker 1: He completed a lot of passes averaged eight yards, had
- 12:20Speaker 1: a bunch of explosive plays, but only one touchdown pass
- 12:25Speaker 1: And and if you want MVP votes, these are the
- 12:28Speaker 1: kind of games where your stat bandito and you fatten
- 12:31Speaker 1: up your stat sheet and you have a bunch of
- 12:33Speaker 1: fireworks and everything's great. And this was more like it
- 12:37Speaker 1: wasn't a dud, but it was more like a couple
- 12:40Speaker 1: of sparklers, And sparklers are cool, dude, you love sparkles.
- 12:43Speaker 1: Who doesn't like sparks, safe and sane, safe and sane,
- 12:46Speaker 1: safe and sane. But it wasn't like fireworks. Wasn't like
- 12:48Speaker 1: illegal fireworks you got from Mexico or something like that
- 12:51Speaker 1: and that and uh, anyway, so can we address also
- 12:54Speaker 1: the fire breathing dragon of the room. If my malor
- 12:57Speaker 1: math is correct, Drake May somehow has play now a
- 13:00Speaker 1: year plus basically a year and a half over year
- 13:03Speaker 1: and a half now, and he still hasn't thrown for
- 13:05Speaker 1: three hundred yards.
- 13:05Speaker 2: In an NFL game.
- 13:07Speaker 1: We're talking about the modern NFL here, where teams throw
- 13:10Speaker 1: the ball if they're up.
- 13:12Speaker 2: If they're down, if they're tied, if they're hungry, if
- 13:16Speaker 2: they're sleepy, whatever, they just they throw the ball. The
- 13:20Speaker 2: league practically forces you to get three hundred yards by accident,
- 13:24Speaker 2: and Drake May has two hundred and eighty yard performances
- 13:27Speaker 2: piling up like empty boxes from Amazon and not.
- 13:34Speaker 1: Crossed over the rubicon of that three hundred. Hasn't gotten it.
- 13:37Speaker 1: It's one of those bizarro quirky things.
- 13:40Speaker 2: That's out there.
- 13:41Speaker 1: But May failing to lead the Patriots again to cover
- 13:45Speaker 1: against the Jets. That's not great. It's not great. And
- 13:49Speaker 1: a nice little quarterback developing. We'll see where.
- 13:52Speaker 2: This ends up when the real games begin. Down the line.
- 13:55Speaker 1: Patriot's playing a lot, a lot of weak opponents here,
- 13:59Speaker 1: and Drake May has an he's not yet found that higher,
- 14:01Speaker 1: higher gears.
- 14:02Speaker 2: It's like he's in second gear.
- 14:03Speaker 1: He's humming along and he's going fifty five or sixty,
- 14:07Speaker 1: and he's in the right lane. He's got the hazards flashing,
- 14:10Speaker 1: and you think, MVP, right, that's autobonn territory. That's one
- 14:17Speaker 1: hundred and ten miles an hour passing Ferraris and porsches
- 14:20Speaker 1: and things like that.
- 14:21Speaker 2: So again this game, it keeps him where he already was.
- 14:24Speaker 1: It's not like he goes any lower and continues to
- 14:28Speaker 1: be a wide open race.
- 14:31Speaker 2: As it's too early.
- 14:32Speaker 1: Not all precincts are reporting in and Drake May still
- 14:35Speaker 1: promising in town.
- 14:36Speaker 4: Oh, you're such a hater, Malor. That's what you're doing
- 14:40Speaker 4: the overnights. You're supposed to get the knee pads out
- 14:42Speaker 4: for Drake May. Okay, stop stop stop, stop, stops up.
- 14:47Speaker 5: All right.
- 14:47Speaker 1: Last word for the j e Ts suck, suck, suck.
- 14:52Speaker 1: Where quarterback Justin Fields yet again was held in check. Yeah, well,
- 14:59Speaker 1: he did go over one hundred yards passing for him.
- 15:01Speaker 1: That's a big accomplishment. We'll give him a puffy sticker congratulations.
- 15:05Speaker 1: Normally he's been around fifty yards passing, so he doubled that.
- 15:08Speaker 1: And the Jets did come out and matriculate the ball
- 15:11Speaker 1: down the field. They had a nice opening drive, most
- 15:13Speaker 1: of it on the ground, and the rest of the game. Eh,
- 15:17Speaker 1: let's see here, Dan, see Justin Fields, he fumbled deep
- 15:20Speaker 1: in his own territory in a one score game in.
- 15:22Speaker 2: The fourth quarter.
- 15:23Speaker 1: Here's Justin we have just Here's Justin Field's commenting on
- 15:26Speaker 1: his performance for the jetstick a list.
- 15:30Speaker 2: Not good enough.
- 15:31Speaker 3: You know, we lost the game, so it wasn't good enough.
- 15:33Speaker 2: Every time we lose. My performance didn't good enough. Okay,
- 15:37Speaker 2: thank you.
- 15:38Speaker 1: How about the coach Aaron Glenn give the state of
- 15:40Speaker 1: the Jets address?
- 15:42Speaker 2: Can you please help us out? Coach Aaron Glynn, let's
- 15:44Speaker 2: hear this again.
- 15:45Speaker 6: We're all accountable for that, you know, as far as
- 15:48Speaker 6: coaches make sure we put our guys in the right position,
- 15:51Speaker 6: the receivers to make sure they catch the ball. And
- 15:53Speaker 6: then we can say justin make sure he getting the
- 15:54Speaker 6: ball to some other guys. But to me, that was
- 15:58Speaker 6: really it because there were some players out there to
- 15:59Speaker 6: be made. I thought he had some really good throws.
- 16:02Speaker 6: We just got to finish those things.
- 16:04Speaker 2: Okay, thought he had some really good throws.
- 16:06Speaker 1: Later on he said there are some really good things
- 16:08Speaker 1: in general for the quarterback. So the question quickly Jets
- 16:14Speaker 1: coach Aaron Lenn saying the quarterback Justin Fields did some
- 16:18Speaker 1: really good things.
- 16:21Speaker 2: How do you process that? It processed that one.
- 16:25Speaker 1: So my first thought on this is, I think this
- 16:29Speaker 1: is the highest level of football. This is not a
- 16:32Speaker 1: kindergarten parent teacher conference. We're not we're not doing that.
- 16:35Speaker 1: You don't need to coddle anyone. And Justin Fields was
- 16:38Speaker 1: able to wipe his own tushy congratulations, and he rode.
- 16:42Speaker 2: The vomit comet and that's great and wonderful.
- 16:45Speaker 1: And they had that scripted opening drive where they ran
- 16:48Speaker 1: the ball most of the time, and he ran a
- 16:50Speaker 1: couple of QB keepers and he had some success and
- 16:53Speaker 1: the only.
- 16:54Speaker 2: Attempted two passes.
- 16:57Speaker 1: Overall, Justin Fields is the same suck bad quarterback he
- 17:01Speaker 1: was with Chicago and with Pittsburgh.
- 17:03Speaker 2: The guys, the guy blows. That's just it.
- 17:05Speaker 1: He averaged four point five yards per pass. He threw
- 17:08Speaker 1: a ball off alignman's helmet. If you saw that, there
- 17:11Speaker 1: was that intentional grounding thing where he I think killed
- 17:16Speaker 1: the worm was out on the field.
- 17:18Speaker 2: He killed that.
- 17:19Speaker 3: And then the.
- 17:21Speaker 1: Masterpiece of this that should be hung in an art museum.
- 17:25Speaker 1: Fumbling the snap in a one score game deep in
- 17:28Speaker 1: your own territory, which, oh, by the way, the Patriots
- 17:31Speaker 1: should have scored a touchdown. They would have covered the spread,
- 17:33Speaker 1: not that I'm bitter about that, but they did not.
- 17:35Speaker 1: They got the ball the eleven yard line of the Jets.
- 17:39Speaker 1: So really good stuff, terrific. Let's have a parade right
- 17:44Speaker 1: through the Canyon of Heroes. We're going to have a parade.
- 17:46Speaker 1: And so what is Aaron Glenn doing. Well, again, he's
- 17:49Speaker 1: gas lighting, is what he's doing here. Aaron Glenn treating
- 17:52Speaker 1: the seven Jets fans that are left like there are
- 17:56Speaker 1: a bunch of dingle berries who can't see what's happening
- 17:59Speaker 1: with their own eyes. If the Jets wanted a running back,
- 18:02Speaker 1: I'm sure they could have found one somewhere. They're not
- 18:04Speaker 1: that expensive. They're everywhere, they really are. It's like sand
- 18:08Speaker 1: on the beach that you don't really need to worry
- 18:10Speaker 1: about it. There's gonna be more sand. And if Aaron
- 18:13Speaker 1: Glenn truly believes that there were some really good things
- 18:17Speaker 1: out there with his quarterback, justin Fields, if Glenn's going
- 18:21Speaker 1: that direction, then someone needs to call for a fifty
- 18:25Speaker 1: one to fifty a seventy two hour cycle because that
- 18:29Speaker 1: is deluge. You know, that is delugional, is.
- 18:33Speaker 2: What that is.
- 18:33Speaker 1: And Fields like he was a CFL quarterback playing an
- 18:39Speaker 1: NFL game, which I think is insulting to the Winnipeg
- 18:41Speaker 1: Blue Bombers.
- 18:41Speaker 2: So I guess he's actually not that one of.
- 18:44Speaker 1: Those minor league UFL Arena league whatever they're calling those
- 18:48Speaker 1: minor league outfits now. So yeah, I don't think he
- 18:51Speaker 1: could play for the Winnipeg Blue Bombers. I don't or
- 18:54Speaker 1: the Montreal Alouettes or the Argonauts or the BC Lions.
- 18:58Speaker 2: I don't think he could play for them.
- 19:00Speaker 7: I know.
- 19:00Speaker 1: And the Jet fans, while some of them are dumda dumb,
- 19:05Speaker 1: dumb dumb, they're not all rubs.
- 19:08Speaker 2: They're not all rubes.
- 19:09Speaker 1: And those that watched and so I would advise Aaron Glenn,
- 19:13Speaker 1: do not blow smoke up the backside of the Jet
- 19:16Speaker 1: fan and tell them it's a romatherapy because they know
- 19:19Speaker 1: it's not. And Justin Fields didn't do really good things.
- 19:24Speaker 1: He did Justin Field's things. And that's exactly the problem
- 19:30Speaker 1: with Justin Fields. Heaven knows he does Justin Fields things,
- 19:35Speaker 1: and that's exactly the problem. It's every time he's playing,
- 19:40Speaker 1: it's happy hour for the other team. It's happy hour
- 19:43Speaker 1: for the other team when he's out there playing quarterback.
- 19:46Speaker 1: It is the Ben Mahler Show. If you'd like to

- 23:00Speaker 2: in a moment.
- 23:01Speaker 1: And let's see who do we have here the reaction.
- 23:05Speaker 2: The reaction.
- 23:08Speaker 1: Said, not a burness, as you mentioned, the the coop
- 23:11Speaker 1: and the rain Offen stand and applaud you. I believe
- 23:14Speaker 1: when they make they make plans, they don't include you,
- 23:17Speaker 1: and it is only to praise you.
- 23:20Speaker 2: Yes, we are not real friends. We're work friends, not
- 23:23Speaker 2: real friends. But that's usually how people are in radio
- 23:25Speaker 2: or really real friends. You just work friends. What else
- 23:28Speaker 2: do we have?
- 23:28Speaker 1: Let's see page down Gunner in Minnesota says, So if
- 23:31Speaker 1: your l A rams were doing bad, would you be
- 23:34Speaker 1: talking bad about your team or would you let it
- 23:37Speaker 1: like well, Gunner, I don't know. Maybe go to the
- 23:39Speaker 1: ear doctor, Gunner. Okay, I trash all the teams. I
- 23:45Speaker 1: killed the dog. I'm still getting people upset. Are you
- 23:47Speaker 1: rip Clayton Gersha before the playoffs?
- 23:50Speaker 3: Oh?
- 23:50Speaker 2: My god?
- 23:51Speaker 1: These cry baby Dodger loser fans, which is not most
- 23:55Speaker 1: of them, but you know, Dodgers are so good they
- 23:58Speaker 1: win every year. Now there's a percent of the fan
- 24:00Speaker 1: base that are complete scum losers and they can't handle
- 24:03Speaker 1: any criticism because.
- 24:05Speaker 2: They were coddle their entire life.
- 24:06Speaker 1: And so I ripped Kershaw, who cost the Dodgers at
- 24:10Speaker 1: least three World Series by his incompetence in the playoffs.
- 24:13Speaker 2: And I'm getting ripped for it.
- 24:14Speaker 1: And you have the balls Gunner and Minnesota to say,
- 24:17Speaker 1: would you talk bad about your team?
- 24:19Speaker 2: Come on, what's wrong with you? How do you Spock's
- 24:23Speaker 2: weed Wright?
- 24:23Speaker 1: Since says Ben, you said al Michaels is venerable, that's
- 24:27Speaker 1: a great call. However, the Catholic Church uses venerable as
- 24:31Speaker 1: a title for a person who's reached the first stage
- 24:34Speaker 1: of canonization, could we be seeing Saint Al in the future. Well,
- 24:41Speaker 1: I'm gonna go on a limit, say, very unlikely. You're
- 24:43Speaker 1: going to see Saint Al for a number of reasons.
- 24:45Speaker 1: And unfortunately, I don't go by the Catholic Church's lexicon.
- 24:52Speaker 2: I go by my own lexicon. But if you do
- 24:54Speaker 2: good for you knock yourself out.
- 24:55Speaker 1: Supermarket Steve says that this year has been kind of
- 24:59Speaker 1: weird for quarterbacks. Even Paddy Mahomes only has one game
- 25:04Speaker 1: over three hundred yards passing. Okay, so I guess.
- 25:09Speaker 2: You're just kind of okay, everything's great, nothing to worry about.
- 25:13Speaker 2: That's usually a barometer.
- 25:15Speaker 1: So super Mark Steve's using the well, it's just a
- 25:17Speaker 1: weird year situation.
- 25:18Speaker 2: Okay, there you go.
- 25:20Speaker 1: Nature Boy says high expectations for the Patriots as long
- 25:23Speaker 1: as they get to play teams like the Arnie Spanier
- 25:26Speaker 1: Rec League Tigers next.
- 25:28Speaker 2: Well, they are on the schedule. Yeah, I believe they
- 25:31Speaker 2: are on the schedule.
- 25:33Speaker 1: Mallard Palooza seat holder mallardprop guy rights and says Ben
- 25:37Speaker 1: we never tire. He says, we never ever tire of
- 25:41Speaker 1: hearing all of the customers stories associated with tire rack
- 25:44Speaker 1: dot Com and it's faithful customers even have some have
- 25:49Speaker 1: even bonded and become good friends to their experiences with
- 25:54Speaker 1: your fine sponsor. Absolute Absolutely yeah, who else page, We'll
- 26:00Speaker 1: skip over that one, and it was something else I
- 26:04Speaker 1: wanted to read here. I get a bunch of messages
- 26:06Speaker 1: from you knuckleheads that have come in. Ozzie Was says,
- 26:11Speaker 1: I followed your macho about divisional games with double digit spreads,
- 26:14Speaker 1: but I only got plus twelve at the start of
- 26:17Speaker 1: the week for the Jets, so I still lose.
- 26:20Speaker 2: And thanks to the mention on.
- 26:22Speaker 1: Benny versus the penny, Yeah, well that's a hard You
- 26:26Speaker 1: were on the right side of the game. You can't
- 26:28Speaker 1: you lose that game if you had the Patriots, it
- 26:31Speaker 1: was the right side. They missed the field goal before halftime.
- 26:34Speaker 1: There were two things that killed you on the bet.
- 26:37Speaker 1: The missed field goal before halftime and then when Justin
- 26:40Speaker 1: Fields handed the game to the Patriots with that fumble
- 26:44Speaker 1: I believe with the eleven yard line of the Patriots
- 26:47Speaker 1: and they failed to get the ball into the end zone.
- 26:51Speaker 2: So those two things are what killed you.
- 26:54Speaker 1: Ferkdog says Justice for the Big Dumper f the East
- 26:58Speaker 1: Coast bias he says. Robie the Mariner fan says, no justice,
- 27:01Speaker 1: no peace.
- 27:02Speaker 2: There you go, Robbie, no justice, no piece.
- 27:05Speaker 1: Robbie's gonna lead a big protest there, He's gonna do it.
- 27:08Speaker 1: All right, Let's go to the phones and Enie Meanie,
- 27:11Speaker 1: Miney Moe. Let's say hello to Zach in Rhode Island.

- 27:53Speaker 2: But go ahead, what is your favorite national anthem?
- 27:55Speaker 9: Because I go ahead, that's fortunated thing I thought about tonight.
- 27:58Speaker 3: I haven't been able to listen to the show tonight,
- 28:00Speaker 3: so I can can talk about what you gets you're
- 28:01Speaker 3: talking about earlier.
- 28:03Speaker 2: So my favorite was Steven Tyler.
- 28:05Speaker 8: I'm not a big answer fan, but he's saying that
- 28:08Speaker 8: a national anthem at a Red Sox game, and it
- 28:12Speaker 8: was fucking pretty cool because he was like in the rock,
- 28:15Speaker 8: if your tad player bombs using there and the flag
- 28:20Speaker 8: was still bare.
- 28:21Speaker 9: Then he threw it because we ain't gonna take it.
- 28:28Speaker 8: That was And then if I was him, I would
- 28:31Speaker 8: have finished with guess no, no, maybe.
- 28:37Speaker 2: You're very musical. You're very musical, jack, Yeah, yeah, you
- 28:43Speaker 2: ready to go?
- 28:44Speaker 1: Uh yeah, Well, the greatest national anthem of all time,
- 28:48Speaker 1: it's a dated reference, but it's on YouTube is Carl Lewis.
- 28:52Speaker 1: You can't get that. Carl Lewis was a big track
- 28:54Speaker 1: and field guy. Uh you know, performed the national anthem
- 28:58Speaker 1: at a New Jersey Nets game and then nineties and
- 29:01Speaker 1: his voice just did not go well.
- 29:04Speaker 2: Either that or there was.
- 29:07Speaker 1: You know, no, his voice cracked and squeaked and it
- 29:09Speaker 1: was it was very awkward. And then there was h
- 29:11Speaker 1: there was this woman who used to be famous. She's
- 29:13Speaker 1: not famous anymore because nobody's famous for.
- 29:15Speaker 2: That long and uh Rosie o'donnald I think it was
- 29:19Speaker 2: her name.
- 29:19Speaker 1: She gave the national anthem at a Podre game in
- 29:22Speaker 1: San Diego, and she grabbed her crotch after the national
- 29:24Speaker 1: Great classy, very classy move by Rosie. Yeah, yeh, she
- 29:30Speaker 1: just had a hat back where she.
- 29:33Speaker 2: Was.
- 29:33Speaker 1: She was, you know, ten sheets to the wind. But yeah,
- 29:36Speaker 1: all right, well you checked the box. Ack, have a
- 29:38Speaker 1: great week in the great.
- 29:40Speaker 2: Wa wa wow? Why why? Why?
- 29:42Speaker 7: What?

- 29:45Speaker 9: I gotta go anyway.
- 29:46Speaker 2: Okay.
- 29:48Speaker 8: I don't know why he's caring a hacket.
- 29:50Speaker 9: It's kind of a weird time to collect kingling, but hey, okay,
- 30:00Speaker 9: there he goes go Zachy.
- 30:03Speaker 2: Interesting.
- 30:04Speaker 1: It's hard to find hitchhikers these days, I think, right,
- 30:07Speaker 1: they're not.
- 30:09Speaker 3: You know, you always wanted to pick up hitchhikers and
- 30:12Speaker 3: then people tell me it's dangerous, and I'm like, but
- 30:16Speaker 3: I'm doing a good deed, you know.
- 30:18Speaker 2: Sure, Yeah.
- 30:20Speaker 1: I wonder how long you'd have to Well, it depends,
- 30:22Speaker 1: of course, what you look like to get picked up
- 30:23Speaker 1: as a hitchhiker, right, I think you might get Yeah,
- 30:27Speaker 1: you probably get picked up.
- 30:28Speaker 2: I don't think I would get picked up. I think
- 30:29Speaker 2: I would be standing there with.
- 30:31Speaker 8: My thumb out, like, do you have a good hitchhiker's thumb, Ben,
- 30:34Speaker 8: because I have a great hitchhiker's thumb, So that's why
- 30:36Speaker 8: I'd get picked up, you.
- 30:37Speaker 1: Think, so, yeah, that's probably it's that's definitely the key
- 30:40Speaker 1: there that people look at the thumb and they're big
- 30:42Speaker 1: fans of the thumb, and then that's uh, that's usually
- 30:45Speaker 1: how how that works. Let's see, all right, let's go
- 30:49Speaker 1: back to the phones and we'll say hello, Well, let's

- 31:39Speaker 8: This is Ben Mallard. Don't you forget. This is Ben's great.
- 31:43Speaker 2: Guy, Blair. Blair went to the liquor store. Blair went
- 31:47Speaker 2: out to the liquor store.
- 31:50Speaker 8: I mentioned you already and they don't even know who
- 31:52Speaker 8: you are.
- 31:53Speaker 2: We we got a uh. That's because they're not real, Blair.
- 31:57Speaker 2: It's all fake.
- 31:58Speaker 1: You don't realize that yet, but someday will come to
- 32:00Speaker 1: the age of realization that it's all fake.
- 32:02Speaker 2: But that's fine.
- 32:05Speaker 8: Yeah, it is fake. You're right, it's fake news. Everybody's
- 32:09Speaker 8: behind screen, and I say, when you're behind screen?
- 32:12Speaker 1: What There's a lot of manipulation because the social media
- 32:17Speaker 1: companies have figured out that if they have a lot
- 32:19Speaker 1: of users, even if they're fake users.
- 32:21Speaker 2: There's bot farms in Moldova that.
- 32:24Speaker 1: Create the illusion. It's called the Matrix Blair. There's there
- 32:27Speaker 1: are a lot of people obviously on social media. But
- 32:30Speaker 1: I'm doing my rant, Blair, don't interrupt my rank. It's
- 32:33Speaker 1: mostly a manipulation via algorithm and bot farms and all
- 32:37Speaker 1: that stuff. There's a lawsuit against Spotify right now which
- 32:40Speaker 1: is very interesting about how they've been manipulating.
- 32:42Speaker 2: They claim.
- 32:43Speaker 1: The claim is they've been manipulating their numbers. We'll see
- 32:45Speaker 1: if it proves out in quarter. Anyway, what's on your mind, Blair?
- 32:49Speaker 8: Oh, I just wanted to tell you Ben that I
- 32:51Speaker 8: am practicing, getting more practicing. You know, I'm trying my hardest,
- 32:56Speaker 8: and I got my sweatshirt already made with my logo
- 33:00Speaker 8: of my podcast.
- 33:01Speaker 1: Okay, so just for this again, for the record, you
- 33:03Speaker 1: have that you do not actually have a podcast, but
- 33:06Speaker 1: you've made a logo hoodie of the podcast.
- 33:09Speaker 8: Is that podcasts? Yeah, Blair, if you podcast on Spotify
- 33:13Speaker 8: or YouTube yet.
- 33:15Speaker 1: I think the term wind for that would be putting
- 33:16Speaker 1: the card ahead of a horse. I think you've you've
- 33:18Speaker 1: done things a little backwards here.
- 33:21Speaker 5: You know what, though, I'd be more likely to wear
- 33:23Speaker 5: Blair's podcast sweatshirt than listen to the podcast.
- 33:30Speaker 2: Find what what.
- 33:33Speaker 8: Did you just do to me? I mean, my podcast
- 33:36Speaker 8: is gonna have a practice one coming out for the
- 33:39Speaker 8: practice version in January.
- 33:41Speaker 2: I's to Blair.
- 33:46Speaker 1: It takes half an hour to record a podcast, Blair,
- 33:50Speaker 1: you can do.
- 33:50Speaker 8: A reason for me to do you know, I always
- 33:53Speaker 8: have to sit here and do is talk about for
- 33:56Speaker 8: half an hour. I can easily do that.
- 33:58Speaker 1: Yeah, you don't even have to do half an hour.
- 34:00Speaker 1: You can start out doing ten minutes. Just do ten minutes,
- 34:03Speaker 1: that's all.
- 34:04Speaker 8: I broke a thirteen minute or whatever. Broken fifty is
- 34:08Speaker 8: easy for me.
- 34:10Speaker 2: I broke. You've got quite quite the endurance there. Hey,
- 34:15Speaker 2: you're you're quite the endurance athlete.
- 34:17Speaker 8: Thirty minutes. It is very easy for me just to
- 34:20Speaker 8: sit there and talk sports.
- 34:21Speaker 2: Why didn't just do it?
- 34:23Speaker 8: Then do it?
- 34:24Speaker 2: But you got to be See, the problem is you
- 34:26Speaker 2: have to be entertaining, Blair. You just can't be reading
- 34:29Speaker 2: like the Wikipedia pages or whatever. You got to be
- 34:31Speaker 2: somewhere then, yeah, can't be.
- 34:35Speaker 8: Monitor gotcha, gotcha? Gotcha?
- 34:38Speaker 2: Do you want to take a somebody?
- 34:40Speaker 3: Blair?
