- 2:16Speaker 1: Judge ree place and mark the full name guy who
- 2:19Speaker 1: could use these? I think everyone could use these.
- 2:21Speaker 2: Here.
- 2:21Speaker 1: You ever wipe with that dry toilet paper? You know
- 2:24Speaker 1: what I'm talking about. Yeah, It's one of those things
- 2:27Speaker 1: you regret immediately, like, oh man, this is terrible. Wait
- 2:31Speaker 1: what are we doing? I'm an adult and I'm why
- 2:34Speaker 1: am I using? There's gotta be something better. There is
- 2:37Speaker 1: switch to life changing wet extra large flushable dude wipes
- 2:42Speaker 1: because weather. Just Clean's better, available at Amazon and at
- 2:46Speaker 1: major retailers nationwide. Dude wipes, best clean pants down is
- 2:53Speaker 1: the way to go. So our lead this hour is
- 2:56Speaker 1: from Pittsburgh in the reaction. It happened over the week,
- 3:00Speaker 1: and the reaction though is continually. You knew this was
- 3:03Speaker 1: not a popular decision when the Steelers announced on a
- 3:05Speaker 1: Saturday that they'd hired a new coach. No, it's like
- 3:11Speaker 1: you're trying to hide. It's like I don't want anyone
- 3:13Speaker 1: to know about his. People are out doing things. There's
- 3:16Speaker 1: a big storm coming. People up shopping doing what they're doing,
- 3:19Speaker 1: buying their toilet paper, their water and their supplies or whatever.
- 3:22Speaker 1: So the Rooney family is under siege. Is that too dramatic?
- 3:26Speaker 1: Under siege for hiring the coach perceived to be the
- 3:28Speaker 1: wrong coach, and now they are playing offense, something they're
- 3:33Speaker 1: not good at in Pittsburgh, playing offense. So we haven't
- 3:35Speaker 1: seen this, perhaps not the Iron Dome defense. In Pittsburgh,
- 3:40Speaker 1: the Iron Dome defense, some fans upset that Viking defensive
- 3:45Speaker 1: coordinator Brian Flores did not get the gigs, so the
- 3:48Speaker 1: Steelers wanted to put the stop to that. So you
- 3:52Speaker 1: saw this or not, we're hearing that the reason this
- 3:55Speaker 1: is the story that was leaked, the reason that former
- 3:58Speaker 1: Dolphins head coach Brian floor is was, you know, it
- 4:01Speaker 1: was a finalist for the job, didn't get the job.
- 4:03Speaker 1: They picked Mike McCarthy because Mike McCarthy has a specialization
- 4:08Speaker 1: with quote, grooming quarterbacks close quote. So this is reportedly
- 4:14Speaker 1: what sold the Steelers on giving him the job, if
- 4:17Speaker 1: you believe the story that was being peddled in the media.
- 4:20Speaker 1: So that is a good jumping off point. Let us
- 4:22Speaker 1: discuss the question. Does this report making the claim that
- 4:27Speaker 1: Brian Flores lost the Steeler job to Mike McCarthy because
- 4:31Speaker 1: he's not good not good at developing young quarterbacks? As
- 4:37Speaker 1: this past the smell test? Does it pass the smell test?
- 4:41Speaker 1: So I've got Hollywood hypnotist, hippodrome, and bandcamp and we
- 4:48Speaker 1: will combine all of these things together and we are
- 4:51Speaker 1: gonna make mac and cheese is what we're gonna make.
- 4:54Speaker 1: So a this entire story involving Brian Floores in the leaked,
- 5:00Speaker 1: a convenient leaked as to why he didn't get the
- 5:02Speaker 1: job when the Steelers picked Mike McCarthy. This entire thing
- 5:06Speaker 1: smells like a tuna steamboat, just a hot tun of steamer.
- 5:10Speaker 1: Just real disgusting that tuna gets in that warm tune. Oh,
- 5:14Speaker 1: it's discussed anyway. And let's let's get real here, all right.
- 5:19Speaker 1: Brian Flores is currently suing the Shield. It's it's on
- 5:22Speaker 1: its way to the Supreme Court. And as I pointed
- 5:26Speaker 1: out many a time, and I'll repeat for those of
- 5:28Speaker 1: even a little slow sitting in the back of the
- 5:29Speaker 1: room trying to get hired by an NFL team while
- 5:34Speaker 1: you're suing the league that has oversight on the entire operation.
- 5:40Speaker 1: Is it's like trying to get promoted to the regional
- 5:42Speaker 1: manager position at a Chick fil A while there's an
- 5:46Speaker 1: active investigation with the corporate headquarters in Georgia. Good luck
- 5:52Speaker 1: on that. Good luck on that it doesn't happen. And
- 5:55Speaker 1: as far as the Steelers claiming that they need a quarterback, whisperer,
- 6:00Speaker 1: if you will, that doesn't hold water, that doesn't pass
- 6:04Speaker 1: the water test. For who show me the guy who's
- 6:07Speaker 1: they don't have anybody? They don't They don't have a
- 6:11Speaker 1: single young, blue chip quarterback in the building worth a lick.
- 6:15Speaker 1: And if you look at the draft, there's no one
- 6:18Speaker 1: all that good in the twenty twenty six NFL Draft.
- 6:20Speaker 1: That we know that because Fernando Mendoza, who's a fourth
- 6:24Speaker 1: round talent, is being projected as the number one pick
- 6:26Speaker 1: for the Raiders even though he has fourth round talent.
- 6:29Speaker 1: That tells you there is a shortage of quarterbacks in
- 6:32Speaker 1: the twenty twenty six NFL Draft. So the point is,
- 6:36Speaker 1: even if your mindset was all we got to hire
- 6:38Speaker 1: somebody that's good with with quarterbacks, you don't hire a
- 6:41Speaker 1: master chef when you've got only frozen nuggets in the
- 6:47Speaker 1: freezer and nothing else to cook in the fridge. That's
- 6:49Speaker 1: it all. You got some frozen nugget. He's put those
- 6:51Speaker 1: in the air fry You don't need to be a
- 6:52Speaker 1: master chef to cook something in the air fryer. So
- 6:55Speaker 1: this is what I would call a little white lie,
- 6:57Speaker 1: A little white lie by the Pittsburgh Stears cover the
- 7:00Speaker 1: fact that they don't want a curmudgeon like Brian Flores
- 7:04Speaker 1: who's suing the NFL in there and was, yeah, he
- 7:07Speaker 1: was at Loggerheads with two a tongue of ioloa and
- 7:11Speaker 1: all that. But Mike McCarthy did not win this job
- 7:14Speaker 1: because of some kind of specialization. That is Bullpucky is
- 7:19Speaker 1: what that is? Bullpucky. He's a local guy. He's got
- 7:23Speaker 1: a nice resume. Of course, most of it, like Mike Tomlin,
- 7:25Speaker 1: was a million years ago. And the story to me
- 7:29Speaker 1: is the fact that Mike McCarthy must have walked in
- 7:33Speaker 1: to the Rooney office and done cosplay as Kevin Stone.
- 7:38Speaker 1: You know who that is. That's the Hollywood hypnotist guy
- 7:41Speaker 1: goes on all these TV shows and hypnotizes everybody like that.
- 7:44Speaker 1: And I'm convinced that Mike McCarthy getting all these jobs,
- 7:48Speaker 1: he must have an alternative personality. Because I hear Mike
- 7:51Speaker 1: McCarthy in interviews, I think, well, this guy's a meathead.
- 7:54Speaker 1: He didn't know what he's talking about. And then he
- 7:55Speaker 1: goes and gets these wonderful coaching jobs with legacy franchises
- 8:00Speaker 1: in the NFL. You're not talking about crap franchises will
- 8:02Speaker 1: have no following. This is like, these are big time teams,
- 8:06Speaker 1: the Packers, the Cowboys, and the Steelers with national fan bases.
- 8:09Speaker 1: And I just imagined that by the time McCarthy got
- 8:14Speaker 1: done with his interview with the Steelers the Rooney the
- 8:16Speaker 1: Rooneys were clucking like chickens, and then he signed the contract.
- 8:20Speaker 1: They were hypnotized and mesmerized by the brilliant work of
- 8:26Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy there and so that is that a local
- 8:30Speaker 1: boy makes good type story wrapped in again a white
- 8:34Speaker 1: lie to avoid having to go to the lawsuit. Now
- 8:37Speaker 1: that's not the only Steel Dome defense, as we continue
- 8:40Speaker 1: the theme of the hour with Pittsburgh Rams defensive coordinator
- 8:45Speaker 1: Chris Shula, who shouldn't even sniff ahead coaching job after
- 8:48Speaker 1: that performance or lack thereof, gutless by the l a
- 8:53Speaker 1: Rams defense. Pathetic, pathetic, you let a stiff Sam Donald Beecher, embarrassing,
- 8:58Speaker 1: embarrassing for everyone involved, all run laps sad pathetic Rams
- 9:03Speaker 1: defense anyway, but Chris Shula, because they got to hire somebody,
- 9:07Speaker 1: Shula's name came up. It was a popular pick by
- 9:09Speaker 1: popular people for the Steelers. Now was never a question.
- 9:12Speaker 1: The decision was made before the NFC Championship game. Mike
- 9:14Speaker 1: McCarthy was hired. Well, now the story was again conveniently
- 9:18Speaker 1: leaked that Ram's defensive coordinator Chris Shula at one time
- 9:24Speaker 1: seemed like the man for the Pittsburgh franchise that he
- 9:27Speaker 1: was going to replace Mike Tomlin and carry on the
- 9:30Speaker 1: Shula family legacy and all that stuff. Well, the plans
- 9:34Speaker 1: obviously went sideways. Well now there's some information out as
- 9:37Speaker 1: to what happened, why the plans went sideways, and now
- 9:40Speaker 1: the reason. And again I don't know if you saw
- 9:43Speaker 1: this or pay attention to it. Maybe not. But the
- 9:45Speaker 1: story we're hearing, and it was conveniently leaked by a
- 9:48Speaker 1: useful idiot in the media, is that Chris Shula performed
- 9:52Speaker 1: so poorly during his virtual interview that he bombed the interview.
- 10:00Speaker 1: He bombed the interview. All right, So question rams defensive coordinator,
- 10:05Speaker 1: Chris shu the grandson of Don, the grandson of Don
- 10:10Speaker 1: bombing his interview with the Steelers. That's the story, all right?
- 10:17Speaker 1: Is this story helpful or not helpful? That's the question.
- 10:22Speaker 1: So this one, you look at it and it just
- 10:24Speaker 1: reeks of a trip to home Depot, the lawn and
- 10:29Speaker 1: garden center at home Depot and you're buying a plant.
- 10:33Speaker 1: That this is a classic planted story. Again, I go
- 10:36Speaker 1: by the Steel Dome defense of Pittsburgh here that this
- 10:41Speaker 1: was hand delivered to some stool pigeon in the media,
- 10:45Speaker 1: a useful idiot in the Pittsburgh media and here, water
- 10:49Speaker 1: this plant. Water this plant. Okay, I'll water the plant.
- 10:53Speaker 1: The Steelers PR department in full Hasmatt mode at this
- 10:59Speaker 1: particular point after they're getting just killed because they hired
- 11:02Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy and people are upset they wanted somebody else,
- 11:05Speaker 1: and that thing went over like a cloud of flatulence
- 11:07Speaker 1: in an elevator, like a nice, wet, stinky fart in
- 11:10Speaker 1: an elevator, the Mike McCarthy. A Now people hire the
- 11:14Speaker 1: wrong coach. It seems like the wrong coach and they
- 11:16Speaker 1: turned out to be the good coach, and everyone forgets
- 11:17Speaker 1: about that. I'm just telling you based on what we're
- 11:20Speaker 1: reacting to in real time here, and it's like buy
- 11:24Speaker 1: a ticket watching these stories come out, absolutely crushing candidates
- 11:29Speaker 1: for the Steelers job. It's like getting a ticket to
- 11:31Speaker 1: the black and yellow, Black and Yellow Hippodrome and you
- 11:35Speaker 1: go into the hippodrome and it's damage control theater. Here's
- 11:39Speaker 1: what it is. They got bludgeoned for hiring the first
- 11:44Speaker 1: guy they like, so now it's like, hey, look, this
- 11:47Speaker 1: guy sucked, and that guy was terrible, and this guy
- 11:50Speaker 1: can't even chew gum and walk at the same time
- 11:53Speaker 1: that other guy can't tie his shoelaces and on these
- 11:58Speaker 1: gas lighting your customers is what you're doing. And by
- 12:03Speaker 1: the way, how does one even bomb a virtual interview?
- 12:07Speaker 1: Like what would one have to do to bomb? I'm serious,
- 12:13Speaker 1: I know it's all mud slinging and all that. Did
- 12:16Speaker 1: Chris Schuler show up wearing his clown nose and make up? Seriously?
- 12:23Speaker 1: Were his pants off? Was he celebrating? I don't know,
- 12:28Speaker 1: Palm Sunday if you know what I mean there? And
- 12:30Speaker 1: what was he doing on camera? Like seriously? And so
- 12:35Speaker 1: I get it. You discredit the people that the fan
- 12:37Speaker 1: base wanted, and then you hired McCarthy, so you have
- 12:41Speaker 1: to justify it and all that stuff, and so you
- 12:43Speaker 1: don't want it to look like you were panicked and
- 12:45Speaker 1: you hired the first guy with a nice resume and
- 12:47Speaker 1: all that, and so it's like a crisis pr situation.
- 12:52Speaker 1: And most fortunately, most of the Steeler fan base I think,
- 12:56Speaker 1: is smart enough to realize that they've been bamboo and
- 13:01Speaker 1: these stories are intentionally planted. Now, speaking of ridiculous, we
- 13:05Speaker 1: go to the replacements and a lot of people up
- 13:09Speaker 1: in arms. The news came out that your latest Pro
- 13:13Speaker 1: Bowl quarterback is should Dur Sanders. Let me repeat that
- 13:20Speaker 1: one for you because I think this needs to be repeated.
- 13:22Speaker 1: Cleveland Brown's quarterback Shoulduur I suck sanders shoulder. Sanders has
- 13:28Speaker 1: been selected as a replacement quarterback for the American Football
- 13:31Speaker 1: Conference roster in next week's Pro Bowl. I am not
- 13:37Speaker 1: making this up now. Sanders played in eight games. He
- 13:41Speaker 1: started the final seven games for the Cleveland Browns. He
- 13:45Speaker 1: completed less than sixty percent of his passes. He had
- 13:49Speaker 1: a passer rating below seventy and had fourteen hundred yards passing.
- 13:54Speaker 1: And that is your newest Pro Bowl quarterback, which, of
- 13:57Speaker 1: course everyone just kind of chuckles at and said, what
- 13:59Speaker 1: what is that? It's ridiculous. So the question what do
- 14:03Speaker 1: you make of the reaction? They pull a rising reaction
- 14:07Speaker 1: to should ear Sanders being named the Pro Bowl the
- 14:09Speaker 1: Browns quarterback. So my thought on this, having seen the
- 14:16Speaker 1: hullabaloo that this ra is and I got a kick
- 14:19Speaker 1: out of it, just a fun word to say, hullablu.
- 14:21Speaker 1: So they ought to play the Pro Bowl. I know
- 14:23Speaker 1: it's going to be in northern California, wrapped around the
- 14:26Speaker 1: Super Bowl. They should play it at the Hollywood improv
- 14:29Speaker 1: is what they should do because it's a joke. But
- 14:33Speaker 1: it's been a joke like this continues, the full blown
- 14:36Speaker 1: circus under the big top. Sanders replays Drake May, who
- 14:40Speaker 1: will be busy? What is Drake May doing? I don't know,
- 14:43Speaker 1: playing in the Super Bowl for the Patriots. So welcome
- 14:47Speaker 1: should ear Sanders. Congratulations you are on the fake honor Society.
- 14:51Speaker 1: Everyone gets a wonderful certificate. Good job by you. So
- 14:57Speaker 1: the Pro Bowl for many years has become a ghost.
- 15:00Speaker 1: We ranted about this for a long time. The Pro Bowl.
- 15:03Speaker 1: It is not football. It is not about football. It's
- 15:08Speaker 1: the players stopped trying years ago. It was that Pro
- 15:11Speaker 1: Bowl in Vegas. That was the end of it. That
- 15:14Speaker 1: was all over after that. And now it is a
- 15:17Speaker 1: trip to band camp. That's what this is, the Pro
- 15:21Speaker 1: Bowl's band camp. You've got flag football, tug of war,
- 15:24Speaker 1: tic tac toe, you've got the water balloon toss, You've
- 15:28Speaker 1: got all these things. There's more intensity. I had more
- 15:32Speaker 1: intensity at a corporate team building retreat than there is
- 15:37Speaker 1: at the Pro Bowl. And Sharder Sanders, your latest Pro
- 15:39Speaker 1: Bowl quarterback had seven touchdowns and ten interceptions and is
- 15:44Speaker 1: now a Pro Bowl quarterback, and on his Pro Football
- 15:47Speaker 1: Reference page it'll say Pro Bowl quarterback Shreder Sanders. There's
- 15:52Speaker 1: not excellence. At least it didn't use to me. I know,
- 15:54Speaker 1: we lower the standards on everything, right, everything gets all
- 15:57Speaker 1: the standards get lowered and all that stuff, and some
- 15:59Speaker 1: of you dumb asses like that. But that's not excellent's
- 16:02Speaker 1: that's a progress report with red marks all over it.
- 16:05Speaker 1: There's a lot of red ink all over the progress report.
- 16:09Speaker 1: Now someone say, well, hey, it's just you know, why not.
- 16:11Speaker 1: It's a popularity contest. Okay, fine, it's like an influencer's convention.
- 16:17Speaker 1: Just it. You admitted it. That's that's okay. We don't
- 16:19Speaker 1: have to take it seriously because nobody takes influencers seriously.
- 16:22Speaker 1: And for those that are just realizing this is the
- 16:24Speaker 1: part that blows me. The people are just realizing that
- 16:28Speaker 1: the Pro Bowl is like this, that it's for gayzy.
- 16:32Speaker 1: It's like the people that just realize the earth is
- 16:35Speaker 1: not flat or hollow, although I still get emails from
- 16:38Speaker 1: the Hollow Earth Society, so like, where have you been?
- 16:42Speaker 1: And it's not a one off. It's not a one off.
- 16:45Speaker 1: This has been a pattern in recent years. We've seen
- 16:48Speaker 1: wonderful quarterbacks like Snoop Huntley make the Pro Bowl, Mac
- 16:53Speaker 1: Jones Pro Bowl, Mac Jones, Vince Young made a Pro Bowl.
- 17:00Speaker 1: He bought everyone cheesecake factory back in the day. And
- 17:03Speaker 1: so the good news is all pro still means something
- 17:06Speaker 1: that still has some cachet to it. The Pro Bowl
- 17:10Speaker 1: does not. It does not the Pro Bowl incentives in
- 17:14Speaker 1: the contract players have those, which is wonderful. It's like
- 17:18Speaker 1: they get some extra money to play volleyball. That's that's good.
- 17:22Speaker 1: So it's like giving a trophy for showing up. That's
- 17:26Speaker 1: what the Pro Bowl is. It is the Ben Mahlor Show.

- 20:08Speaker 1: Back to it and coming up later this hour, the
- 20:11Speaker 1: gig that nobody wants, The gig that nobody wants. Although
- 20:16Speaker 1: there has apparently been some progress in the overnight hours.
- 20:20Speaker 1: We will get to that coming up in a bit.
- 20:24Speaker 1: Not a burner, not a Burner writes in says I'm
- 20:29Speaker 1: up at the Sundance Film Festival in Park City. Not
- 20:32Speaker 1: a Burner says, and I noticed something strange in one
- 20:35Speaker 1: of the bathroom stalls. Was Coop here promoting a movie
- 20:39Speaker 1: back in nineteen ninety eight? From not a Burner and
- 20:46Speaker 1: AI photo of somebody writing Coop was here in ninety eight? Okay,
- 20:50Speaker 1: I don't know about that. Late Night Drug Tester writes
- 20:53Speaker 1: in he says, I really hope the Steelers nation will
- 20:55Speaker 1: call in and react to the higher, especially Sean the
- 20:59Speaker 1: hood guy, And then he says, Eddie well ed, he
- 21:04Speaker 1: goes to bed at like eight o'clock these days. I
- 21:06Speaker 1: don't know about that, so that's probably not gonna happen.
- 21:09Speaker 1: Nature Boy writes in he says radio gold alert. He
- 21:14Speaker 1: says radio gold alert. Helmet Man called into the local
- 21:18Speaker 1: midday show in La Rogan and Rodney and was asked
- 21:23Speaker 1: the following question about the Rams was the season of success?
- 21:27Speaker 1: His answer was priceless. But then nature Boy did not
- 21:32Speaker 1: reveal his answer, and I wasn't listening, and I don't
- 21:35Speaker 1: know anyone else who was, so I guess we'll never
- 21:37Speaker 1: know the answer. Supermarket Steve writes, and he says, I
- 21:40Speaker 1: cannot wait for Mike McCarthy to dust off the old
- 21:43Speaker 1: classic and have Jalen Warren line up under center a
- 21:47Speaker 1: la Zeke Elliott. Great moments in cowboy history. Great moments
- 21:53Speaker 1: in Cowboy history. I'm waiting for Coop to set my
- 21:55Speaker 1: board up here, Coop, and then I can actually see
- 21:56Speaker 1: the calls. We'll do that and then we'll take some
- 21:58Speaker 1: calls in the meantime. How about this the Cleveland Browns.
- 22:03Speaker 1: They've had multiple coaches who have said, no, we do
- 22:08Speaker 1: not want good job. From what I was reading the
- 22:11Speaker 1: Cleveland Browns Ownership, the Haslim Ownership group has been making
- 22:16Speaker 1: coaching candidates write essays. Can you imagine having to write
- 22:20Speaker 1: an essay to coach the Cleveland Browns? Could there be
- 22:23Speaker 1: any bigger waste of time than that? I'm gonna go
- 22:28Speaker 1: no anyway. So a bunch of people have opted out, saying,
- 22:30Speaker 1: what's so stupid that you should be begging us to
- 22:32Speaker 1: coach the job? We should have to write an essay
- 22:33Speaker 1: to coach the Cleveland Browns? What's wrong with you? You should
- 22:37Speaker 1: be thanking us is what you should be doing. Well.
- 22:40Speaker 1: There are some reports in the late night hours here
- 22:42Speaker 1: that the Browns are closing in on a candidate. Now,
- 22:45Speaker 1: there were some rumblings, like a rumbling your tummy, some
- 22:49Speaker 1: rumblings that the Cleveland Browns had candidates they wanted who
- 22:55Speaker 1: rejected the job. Not just because of the essay, however,
- 22:58Speaker 1: because of the fact that the ownership group said, you've
- 23:01Speaker 1: got to keep Schwartz as the defensive coordinator. Jim Schwartz
- 23:05Speaker 1: has to continue on as the defensive coordinator. And there
- 23:08Speaker 1: were coaches like, no, I want my own guy. I
- 23:11Speaker 1: don't want him, he's already there. I don't want Jim Schwartz,
- 23:13Speaker 1: even though he did a decent job with the Browns defense,
- 23:16Speaker 1: I don't want him here. It turns out, now there
- 23:19Speaker 1: are some some things bouncing around the echo chamber here
- 23:22Speaker 1: that the Browns are closing in on Jim Schwartz as
- 23:29Speaker 1: their new head coach. He was a former head coach
- 23:32Speaker 1: in the NFL years ago, and so the chatter is
- 23:36Speaker 1: that he will be the head coach of the Browns
- 23:41Speaker 1: this time. So we'll let me move my computer here,
- 23:44Speaker 1: hold on a set, here we go. All right, that's
- 23:47Speaker 1: how we do it. Let's see you. Let's go to
- 23:49Speaker 1: the phones and we'll say hello to Enie, Meani, miney
- 23:53Speaker 1: Mo let's go to Dan, who's he's got a non sequitor.
- 23:58Speaker 1: He's in southern California. Hello, Oh, Dan, welcome. You were
- 24:02Speaker 1: on the Ben Mallor Show. What's going on?
- 24:05Speaker 3: Dan? Hey? Dan? I mean, hey man, Yeah, good, what's
- 24:10Speaker 3: going on? When I put down the radio earlier coming
- 24:14Speaker 3: home from the store, you were talking about the Pro
- 24:16Speaker 3: Bowl and I haven't watched in Odyssey, I haven't watched
- 24:20Speaker 3: the Pro Bowl. I would say a good ten years,
- 24:23Speaker 3: ten twelve years, and you know it just what's happened
- 24:27Speaker 3: to it. It's just like I'd rather go to Circus
- 24:29Speaker 3: Circus in Vegas.
- 24:31Speaker 1: Have you been to Circus Circus. It's the same if
- 24:33Speaker 1: you went there in the eighties. It looks exactly the same.
- 24:35Speaker 1: They haven't changed it at all. It looks exactly the same.
- 24:38Speaker 1: It's like a time war, but it's like nineteen eighty six.
- 24:41Speaker 1: When you walk in there, it's wild. Well.
- 24:44Speaker 3: I think they have Will Lendis still doing the high
- 24:46Speaker 3: wire there.
- 24:47Speaker 1: They Oh. I went in there and I was like,
- 24:50Speaker 1: I this couple of years ago, I went into Circus innocent,
- 24:52Speaker 1: and I think they're getting rid of it, right. I
- 24:54Speaker 1: have rumors they're going to put in a different hotel there.
- 24:56Speaker 1: But I walked into Circus Circus and there was a comedian,
- 25:00Speaker 1: not a commedian, a magician juggling. You have the mezzanine there,
- 25:03Speaker 1: and the guy kept dropping the balls and it was depressing.
- 25:06Speaker 1: I was like, these kids are watching. It was like, wow,
- 25:09Speaker 1: it's tough, not easy. But yeah, the Pro Bowl stings.
- 25:12Speaker 3: If he wasn't stuggling bowling pins balls, I mean yeah,
- 25:17Speaker 3: But anyway, the Pro Bowl circuit when they were the
- 25:22Speaker 3: professional bowlers were out there and it was enjoyable to watch.
- 25:25Speaker 3: And I grew up playing a little bit of bowling
- 25:28Speaker 3: in the Chicago area where I grew up, and you know,
- 25:31Speaker 3: it was kind of something to do besides ice skating
- 25:33Speaker 3: and playing hockey outside in freezing cold weather. There was
- 25:36Speaker 3: a warmer sport. And of course we weren't imbibing in
- 25:40Speaker 3: alcoholic adult beverages at the time, you know, we were
- 25:42Speaker 3: going to that, but define we enjoyed it.
- 25:44Speaker 1: Well, I don't know if this is still the case.
- 25:46Speaker 1: A couple of years back, I think this is still
- 25:48Speaker 1: the case. Bowling is the number one participation sport. It
- 25:51Speaker 1: was the number one participation sport in the United States
- 25:55Speaker 1: that more people bowl than any other sport, because as
- 25:57Speaker 1: you reference there, Dan, you can consume massive amounts of
- 26:01Speaker 1: food and alcohol wall bowling, like you could eat an
- 26:05Speaker 1: entire large pizza and a keg of beer wile bowling,
- 26:08Speaker 1: and no one looks down upon you.
- 26:11Speaker 3: Your teammates we're also bibing, and it just gets funnier
- 26:15Speaker 3: frame exactly.
- 26:17Speaker 1: In fact, I would rather watch professional bowling than the
- 26:19Speaker 1: Pro Bowl. I would rather watch that. That's how bad
- 26:22Speaker 1: the Pro Bowl is. I would rather watch that. There
- 26:27Speaker 1: you go, all right, thank you, Dave, There you go,
- 26:30Speaker 1: Thanks for listening. There's the great day, Dan checking in
- 26:35Speaker 1: another job nobody wants, by the way, in the NFL,
- 26:37Speaker 1: is the Cardinals job. And they held a second interview
- 26:44Speaker 1: with Mike Leflair. That name sounds familiar. That is the
- 26:48Speaker 1: brother of the Green Bay Packers coach. Because the NFL,
- 26:53Speaker 1: the n in NFL stands for nepotism, so you gotta
- 26:56Speaker 1: you know it's it's key. There's most businesses a run
- 27:00Speaker 1: on nepotism. It just seems a little bit more painful
- 27:03Speaker 1: in the NFL because half these guys suck, but they
- 27:06Speaker 1: have a good name, and they get these jobs because
- 27:08Speaker 1: they got the good name. Although not sure because Sure
- 27:11Speaker 1: didn't get the Pittsburgh job because he tanked a virtual interview.
- 27:16Speaker 1: Let's go now to America's favorite trash man. He's in Boston, well,
- 27:20Speaker 1: the greater Boston area. We walkme in, Danny DeVito, And
- 27:23Speaker 1: no snow. Snow's not stopping you from your rounds, is it, Danny?
- 27:27Speaker 1: Or is Oh?
- 27:29Speaker 4: Well it did? It did last night, Ben and I
- 27:31Speaker 4: called in lots of Monday's try it reached out to you.
- 27:34Speaker 4: But last night there was no blocks of schools. There
- 27:37Speaker 4: was nothing going on in the state. Spell So we
- 27:40Speaker 4: got a couple of feet out here with snow, so
- 27:43Speaker 4: they're all buried. But today I'm back at it. I'm
- 27:46Speaker 4: doing it. Uh and it's terrible out here right now,
- 27:49Speaker 4: it's miserable out here. I'm trying to I'm going over
- 27:52Speaker 4: snow banks and everything else.
- 27:53Speaker 3: You know.
- 27:53Speaker 4: Its trees and cold too. What's off of that? And
- 27:56Speaker 4: it's supposed to stay cold for about a week or two.
- 27:59Speaker 1: So, so how many layers? How many layers do you have? Danny? You'
- 28:02Speaker 1: and people don't at least it doesn't smell because it's
- 28:04Speaker 1: so cold. But how many layers of clothing do you
- 28:06Speaker 1: have on? Right? Now to pick up all the other
- 28:08Speaker 1: people's trash.
- 28:09Speaker 4: Dress right then I take the truck for the most part,
- 28:11Speaker 4: so I never dressed right. I do have a couple
- 28:14Speaker 4: of pants, of socks of as I need them. My
- 28:16Speaker 4: feet somehow get cold in there. But besides that, it's
- 28:19Speaker 4: just a hoodie in the uh, a sweatshirt that you
- 28:23Speaker 4: got fake.
- 28:24Speaker 1: Blood, Danny, you got fake But now my brother lives
- 28:26Speaker 1: in New York. He always says, wolf socks are the
- 28:28Speaker 1: way to go, those thick wolf socks. It's that s important.
- 28:30Speaker 4: Those are good and those are good. So but Ben Rams,
- 28:35Speaker 4: I can't believe the other Rams loss. I put a
- 28:37Speaker 4: lot of money in the Rams. I thought staff of
- 28:39Speaker 4: late was gonna win that game. You know, when he
- 28:43Speaker 4: had it was the fourth down and fourth and he's
- 28:45Speaker 4: throwing to nobody's and uh, he's gotta he's got those
- 28:48Speaker 4: two guys out there, Adams Nicoua, and uh, he has
- 28:51Speaker 4: to put those guys in that game. So I was
- 28:54Speaker 4: disappointed with that.
- 28:56Speaker 1: And yeah, the whole the whole thing, the whole thing
- 28:58Speaker 1: sucked me. The defense. You can't stay up stop Sam Donald.
- 29:02Speaker 1: One time he had what three first downs. I think
- 29:05Speaker 1: you're in a row Seattle's offense did that's incompetence by
- 29:08Speaker 1: the Rams defense after they screwed up on fourth down.
- 29:11Speaker 1: You thin, the argument to go for it is like, well,
- 29:14Speaker 1: even if they don't get it, the Rams will slow
- 29:16Speaker 1: down Seattle and get the ball back and have time left.
- 29:19Speaker 1: And they screwed.
- 29:20Speaker 4: They screw that up exactly. Yeah, he looks like Joe
- 29:23Speaker 4: Cool out there. Donald dives ben.
- 29:25Speaker 3: I gotta be ho.
- 29:26Speaker 4: So you know, Drake May hasn't looked good in the playoffs.
- 29:29Speaker 4: If he plays like he's been doing in the playoffs,
- 29:32Speaker 4: he's not gonna win that game in a couple of weeks.
- 29:34Speaker 4: I actually favorite Seattle in that game, I might drop
- 29:37Speaker 4: money down in Seattle.
- 29:38Speaker 1: Well don't. Yeah, yeah, calm down a little bit on that,
- 29:41Speaker 1: all right, Yeah, May, Drake May does not look good here.
- 29:44Speaker 1: And I still believe that Sam Donald has the ability
- 29:48Speaker 1: to hand the game to the Patriots and just fully
- 29:51Speaker 1: melt down and just have a classic Sam Donald performance
- 29:56Speaker 1: where he throws two or three interceptions and hands the game.
- 30:00Speaker 4: I could do that, could do that, But the last
- 30:03Speaker 4: couple of playoff games he's time to impressed me. I know.
- 30:05Speaker 4: The forty nine are hurt all lotful. He impressed me
- 30:08Speaker 4: in the last game.
- 30:09Speaker 3: And you're right.
- 30:10Speaker 4: About uh these coaches mccafee. What is he doing for
- 30:15Speaker 4: that job? Ben? And they should be hiring Ryan Flores
- 30:19Speaker 4: and the other guy there, Chucky there, what's his name there?
- 30:23Speaker 3: I forgot his name.
- 30:24Speaker 4: You know the guy they call him.
- 30:25Speaker 1: Chucky John you're talking about.
- 30:28Speaker 4: He should have a job, Ben, He knows the game
- 30:31Speaker 4: very well. He should have a job.
- 30:32Speaker 1: He's on the naughty list. Though he's on the naughty list,
- 30:34Speaker 1: you can't he can't hire him work at barstool and
- 30:37Speaker 1: play grab ask for those guys, but you can't work
- 30:39Speaker 1: in the nfls exactly.
- 30:41Speaker 4: Ben.
- 30:43Speaker 1: Be safe, But man, stay stay warm, Stay warm, mar
- 30:46Speaker 1: This is it Danny Vita. Picking up trash man very
- 30:49Speaker 1: important and I have a great trash collecting story, but
- 30:53Speaker 1: I don't have time to tell it right now. It's
- 30:55Speaker 1: a classic story by a legend who told me about
- 30:58Speaker 1: the value of the trash man. You don't realize how
- 31:01Speaker 1: important the people that pick up the trash are until
- 31:03Speaker 1: they don't pick up the trash. When there's a sanitation
- 31:05Speaker 1: strike and they don't pick it up, you suddenly realize
- 31:08Speaker 1: the value of the people to pick up your trash. Absolutely,
- 31:12Speaker 1: Nature Boy writes back. He says, by the way, helmet
- 31:14Speaker 1: Man's response was this season, the question was the season
- 31:19Speaker 1: of success? He said, Michael Irvin once told him all
- 31:23Speaker 1: you have to do is make the playoffs before he
- 31:26Speaker 1: was cut off. Okay, well, I'm glad that Michael Irvin
- 31:30Speaker 1: he quoted Michael Irvin, the playmaker. That's good. Super Marcus
- 31:33Speaker 1: Steve says, Jim Schwartz had one job this year nine
- 31:37Speaker 1: games into the season, and that was to get Miles
- 31:40Speaker 1: Garrett one more sacked. It took him eight games, eight
- 31:45Speaker 1: more games to do that. That was the only thing
- 31:48Speaker 1: that was going to make this season not a complete
- 31:50Speaker 1: failure for the Cleveland Browns. All right, we'll take your
- 31:54Speaker 1: calls eight seven, seven ninety nine on the Fox Now
- 31:57Speaker 1: next hour, we have asked a weed man, So get
- 31:59Speaker 1: your question ready for that. Our friend Billy, he lives

- 32:24Speaker 1: the who am I? Game? And this is where we
- 32:27Speaker 1: pretend to be somebody else less We call it the
- 32:29Speaker 1: who am I? Game? So if you go back twenty
- 32:30Speaker 1: years to twentyh six, go back to twenty oh six,
- 32:36Speaker 1: there have been a total of six hundred ninety six
- 32:39Speaker 1: quarterbacks that have thrown two hundred or more pass attempts
- 32:41Speaker 1: in the NFL in a single season. Shadhur Sanders had
- 32:45Speaker 1: a quarterback rating a QBR of eighteen point nine this
- 32:51Speaker 1: year for the Browns. He is in the Pro Bowl.
- 32:53Speaker 1: That ranked six hundred and ninety second highest of the
- 32:58Speaker 1: six hundred ninety six quarterbacks in the last twenty years,
- 33:02Speaker 1: there are only four players worse than Shoulder Sanders. I
- 33:06Speaker 1: am the lowest rated quarterback in the last twenty years

- 34:46Speaker 5: back to Katie, sets fires and now hits a ball
- 34:52Speaker 5: thirty for Kevin and Kevin Durant finished with thirty three
- 34:57Speaker 5: points as the Rockets get by the Grizzlies.
- 35:01Speaker 1: One oh eight to ninety nine on a random Monday
- 35:05Speaker 1: night in the NBA there at the Toyota Center in Houston.
- 35:08Speaker 1: The Rockets winning that game in the fourth quarter, actually
- 35:11Speaker 1: trailing going to the fourth quarter against Memphis, but they
- 35:15Speaker 1: win the game and that is the ti Iraq play

- 35:35Speaker 1: should be time now though for the payoff on the
- 35:40Speaker 1: who am I game? So go back twenty years. It's
- 35:44Speaker 1: a generation. Since twenty oh six, there have been six
- 35:47Speaker 1: hundred ninety six quarterbacks that have thrown two hundred or
- 35:50Speaker 1: more passes in an NFL season. Shooter Sanders of the
- 35:54Speaker 1: Cleveland Browns, who was rewarded with a Pro Bowl Berth

- 36:09Speaker 1: with two hundred or more pass attempts since two thousand
- 36:13Speaker 1: and six. Who am I? That is the question? What
