0:38
Speaker 1: hour number one of the pod, Give me your school
0:40
Speaker 1: of thought on the story everyone's talking about in baseball,
0:43
Speaker 1: Dodgers manager Dave Roberts pulling show Hail Tani from a
0:47
Speaker 1: no hitter after sixty eight pitches in five innings. What's
0:51
Speaker 1: that all about? Also, what's the most puzzling thing about egos?
0:55
Speaker 1: Left tackle Jordan Milatta's grumbling about the media's obsession the
1:00
Speaker 1: tushy pushy. We'll talk about that. Also, where are you
1:03
Speaker 1: at on the NFL network glowingly reporting the Vikings edition

Speaker 1: of Desmond Ritter as a proven experienced quarterback number two.
1:13
Speaker 1: We'll talk about that as well. All of it's coming
1:15
Speaker 1: your way right now here. It is our number one.
1:25
Speaker 1: So how does one stop greatness? I don't know in
1:29
Speaker 1: all sports, but I know in baseball. If you want
1:31
Speaker 1: to slow down greatness, have Dave Roberts and the Nerds
1:35
Speaker 1: run your baseball team. Welcome in the beginning of another
1:42
Speaker 1: night of the Ben Malor Shaw. We are in the
1:45
Speaker 1: air everywhere the malar of mouthpiece has been activated as
1:52
Speaker 1: we pay hush money unless we don't coast to coast,
1:56
Speaker 1: border the order and beyond on the vast and unmeasured,
2:00
Speaker 1: purbably powerful microphones of fs are am monating live from
2:05
Speaker 1: the table, the infamous table read from the world famous
2:09
Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio Studios, as approved by j D in Boston,
2:14
Speaker 1: who goes by for some reason the moniker Sharknado.
2:16
Speaker 2: We don't know why, but he does. We don't know why.
2:19
Speaker 1: This portion of the Ben Maler Show on Fox made
2:21
Speaker 1: possible by our friends at Tire Rack. For over forty years,
2:25
Speaker 1: ty Iraq has been helping customers find the right tires

2:37
Speaker 1: options approved by ALF and fergdog like mobile tire installation,
2:41
Speaker 1: tire rack dot com the way tire buying should be.
2:43
Speaker 1: So our lead this hour is from baseball. Now. I
2:47
Speaker 1: realize we don't normally talk baseball during the regular season.
2:50
Speaker 2: It's not much of a talker.
2:51
Speaker 1: I picked my spots on that, especially when there's football
2:54
Speaker 1: going on. Another amazing night of baseball at Dodger Stadium,
2:59
Speaker 1: the Dodgers and the Phillies. Phillies winning the National League East,
3:04
Speaker 1: not that that means much anymore, but they did do that,
3:06
Speaker 1: and trying to wrap up the home field advantage is
3:10
Speaker 1: one of the top two teams. They and the Brewers
3:12
Speaker 1: will likely get home field advantage. Not that that matters.
3:15
Speaker 1: There's really no home field in baseball. So anyway, get
3:17
Speaker 1: to the point, please, So show Hail Tani might know
3:21
Speaker 1: this by now, maybe you haven't been paying attention. So
3:23
Speaker 1: show hal Tani was pitching a no hitter. No granted
3:27
Speaker 1: it was midway through the game. It was five innings
3:30
Speaker 1: into the game, so it wasn't in the eighth or
3:32
Speaker 1: the ninth inn he but he was pitching no hit
3:35
Speaker 1: baseball for five innings, and then Dave Roberts did what
3:40
Speaker 1: Dave Roberts does. He cuts the balls off history. That's
3:44
Speaker 1: what Dave Roberts does. He knewter's history, any chance at history.
3:48
Speaker 1: Dave Roberts chop chop, cut cut, there goes history, and
3:53
Speaker 1: he pulled them over the game. Now Dodgers had a
3:55
Speaker 1: four to nothing lead, and at that point I might
3:58
Speaker 1: as well have been the Philly fanatic. I was go Phillies, Go,
4:01
Speaker 1: Go Phillies go. I admit it.
4:04
Speaker 2: I'm not ashamed to admit it.
4:05
Speaker 1: I admit it. And then I got my wish. Philadelphia
4:12
Speaker 1: conducted batting practice that years ago. I used to go
4:14
Speaker 1: to batting practice. They hit the ball harder during the
4:17
Speaker 1: game than they do in batting practice. Okay, extended BP
4:22
Speaker 1: for the fight in Phills against that wobbly Dodger bullpen,
4:27
Speaker 1: and Philadelphia put up six runs in the sixth inning,
4:31
Speaker 1: five consecutive.
4:32
Speaker 2: It's ended with six runs.
4:33
Speaker 1: Then the Tochers came back to tie the game, and
4:35
Speaker 1: of course the Phillies teeing off more on that Dodger bullpen.
4:38
Speaker 1: They ended up hitting another big home run the ninth.
4:40
Speaker 1: Then he ended up with a nine to six victory
4:44
Speaker 1: in the game. And we again, we don't only talk
4:46
Speaker 1: about baseball other than the playoffs, and we picked our
4:49
Speaker 1: spots at this time of the year. But this is
4:50
Speaker 1: the exception of the rule. And then I saw some
4:53
Speaker 1: of Dave Roberts commentary after the game, and Dave Roberts
4:57
Speaker 1: said that it was predetermined that the decision was made
5:01
Speaker 1: prior to the game, that Otani was only gonna go
5:03
Speaker 1: five innings no matter what. Now, keep in mind, he
5:07
Speaker 1: had only thrown sixty eight pitches. Sixty eight pitches, and
5:14
Speaker 1: this schmndrick, Dave Roberts takes him out of the game.
5:18
Speaker 1: Sixty eight pitches out of the game, no hitter. It
5:21
Speaker 1: doesn't matter, all right, So let us discuss. Give me
5:24
Speaker 1: your school of thought on the Dodgers' philosophy. It's the
5:28
Speaker 1: organizational philosophy led by Dave Roberts, who's in the dugout
5:33
Speaker 1: for pulling sho Hail Tani from a no hitter after
5:36
Speaker 1: just sixty eight pitches. So I've got jim Nance Milli Vanilli,
5:43
Speaker 1: and tiny vodka bottle, and we will combine all of
5:47
Speaker 1: these things together and we are going to make corn
5:50
Speaker 1: dogs because the Dodgers have a lot of time beating
5:53
Speaker 1: corn dogs because they're not gonna be in the playoffs
5:55
Speaker 1: very long with these morons are anyway, all right, So
5:59
Speaker 1: a let's just start with this. I've determined based on
6:02
Speaker 1: years and years of watching this in this era of
6:05
Speaker 1: the Dodgers, this is on brand. It is on brand.
6:09
Speaker 1: Dave Roberts and the Dodgers are the only team in
6:12
Speaker 1: baseball that consistently, consistently does this. Like there are other
6:17
Speaker 1: teams that do it occasionally, the Dodgers lead all of
6:20
Speaker 1: baseball in this. Individual greatness is not allowed when you
6:28
Speaker 1: play for the Dodgers, it is not allowed. Dave Roberts
6:31
Speaker 1: has taken more pitchers out with no hitters than anyone
6:34
Speaker 1: in the history of baseball. That's my stat I don't
6:37
Speaker 1: even know if it is true. We're just gonna go
6:39
Speaker 1: with it. And they always do it out of an
6:41
Speaker 1: abundance of caution, which drives me bukers. Okay, drives me bokers.
6:47
Speaker 1: Nobody knows when someone's gonna get hurt. Nobody knows what
6:50
Speaker 1: the perfect amount of pitches is. People say a hundred pitches,
6:53
Speaker 1: but that's only because it's a round number, and people
6:55
Speaker 1: love round numbers.
6:56
Speaker 2: And there have been pitchers from the.
6:57
Speaker 1: Old school that way more than that and didn't have
7:01
Speaker 1: any problems. And there are pitchers in the modern game
7:04
Speaker 1: that throw a lot less than one hundred pitches. They're
7:07
Speaker 1: hurt all the time. But yet gotta pull o'tani, Gotta
7:11
Speaker 1: take o'tani out of the game, right and put the
7:14
Speaker 1: parade of terribles, the horribles out of the bullpen there
7:18
Speaker 1: and its organizational malpractice is what it is. And the
7:21
Speaker 1: doughters have mastered now. As I said on the Socials,
7:24
Speaker 1: if Dave Roberts managed Nolan Ryan, the greatest strikeout artist
7:29
Speaker 1: in baseball history, if Dave Roberts managed Nolan Ryan, he
7:33
Speaker 1: would have ended his career with no no hitters, zero,
7:36
Speaker 1: no no hitters. Bumpkis all right. He'd be He'd be
7:40
Speaker 1: sitting the dugout after the fifth inning and Dave Roberts
7:44
Speaker 1: would say, hey, Nolan, I got to talk to you,
7:46
Speaker 1: and Dave would go down and Nolan would say, yes, skip,
7:50
Speaker 1: what do you need?
7:51
Speaker 2: And Roberts would then.
7:52
Speaker 1: Explain that that seventy two pitches which you threw, that
7:57
Speaker 1: that's what the computer says. We got to take you
7:59
Speaker 1: out because we don't like your chances facing the lineup
8:02
Speaker 1: the third time through.
8:03
Speaker 2: Well, wait a minute, in.
8:04
Speaker 1: A previous life, I had seven no hitters. Doesn't matter,
8:07
Speaker 1: doesn't matter, doesn't matter. You'd never even have heard of
8:11
Speaker 1: the Ryan Express, the greatest strikeout pitcher of all time,
8:15
Speaker 1: if he got to play with Dave Roberts.
8:17
Speaker 2: It's unbelievable.
8:19
Speaker 1: And then the other part about this, the Dodgers coddle
8:22
Speaker 1: these guys. They absolutely call you baby. They're pitchers. They
8:27
Speaker 1: hide behind pitch counts and the analytics, and they are
8:31
Speaker 1: convinced that they are the smartest people in the room.
8:34
Speaker 1: And you're a moron. I'm a dumb dumb. We're all
8:38
Speaker 1: idiots and they know everything. And what's the result. It's
8:42
Speaker 1: a kunga line of Tommy John surgeries. You get it,
8:45
Speaker 1: Tommy John, You get it, Tommy John. You get a
8:47
Speaker 1: Tommy John. As Jim Nance would say, all right, they've
8:51
Speaker 1: turned elbow surgery, Tommy John surgery into a franchise tradition
8:56
Speaker 1: unlike any other. It's right next to the Dodger Dog
9:00
Speaker 1: and the late great Vin Scully. That's the Dodgers, all right.
9:04
Speaker 1: That's how they operate. A pyramid of shredded ligaments behind
9:08
Speaker 1: Dodger Stadium, from their pictures, and despite all the evidence
9:12
Speaker 1: indicating what they are doing is fundamentally broken. All right,
9:17
Speaker 1: what they are doing doesn't work. They won't change. They
9:22
Speaker 1: will not They're stubborn. They will not change, they will
9:25
Speaker 1: not adapt, won't do it. It's kind of like bad parenting. Now,
9:30
Speaker 1: you think about bad parenting. If you're a parent and
9:32
Speaker 1: you expect very little from your children, you're going to
9:36
Speaker 1: get very little from your children. If you expect greatness,
9:41
Speaker 1: you may get greatness, but at least you'll get some
9:43
Speaker 1: good stuff, even if it's not greatness. And Dave Roberts
9:46
Speaker 1: so robotic, and he's the faces. I realize there's other
9:50
Speaker 1: people making these decisions, and he's just getting a fat
9:53
Speaker 1: check to hang out with the sports writers and bust
9:56
Speaker 1: balls before the game. But Dave Roberts a robotics by
9:59
Speaker 1: the book, and it's middle manager bull crap, which I
10:03
Speaker 1: can't stand. There's no room for the human element in coaching,
10:08
Speaker 1: Like sometimes you have to trust your gut. Occasionally you
10:12
Speaker 1: have to trust your gut. It does not happen. And
10:14
Speaker 1: this is a great example. They had Otani, who's on
10:17
Speaker 1: the mound dealing and no, cannot do it, cannot have it,
10:20
Speaker 1: cannot risk it, abundance of caution add cannot do it.
10:24
Speaker 1: The iPad in the dugout says, five innings max, I
10:29
Speaker 1: am merely following my orders. Yeah, okay, So what happened?
10:33
Speaker 1: They go to the bullpen and give up nine runs?
10:38
Speaker 1: Nine runs rather than have a picture push the limits.
10:42
Speaker 1: You never push the limits of the human body and
10:45
Speaker 1: test the boundaries, which I thought was kind of athletic competition,
10:49
Speaker 1: testing the limits and things like that, But I guess not.
10:52
Speaker 1: Things have changed, not for the better, but they Again.
10:55
Speaker 2: This is the whole thing, and it drives me nuts.
10:57
Speaker 1: To Dodgers. Organizational philosophy is to have guys the bare
11:00
Speaker 1: minimum clock in.
11:02
Speaker 2: Just do enough.
11:04
Speaker 1: Make it look like you're busy when you're futzing around
11:06
Speaker 1: your phone. Just make it look like you're actually doing
11:09
Speaker 1: something right, and that's it, and just do enough. Never
11:13
Speaker 1: ever strive, never ever strive for anything more than that.
11:17
Speaker 1: Don't do it. That's the Dodgers. Don't expect greatness. Because
11:21
Speaker 1: they don't expect greatness, and you get paid a lot
11:23
Speaker 1: of money. There's no room for improv no room for
11:25
Speaker 1: improv at all. Just the dogma of the nerd. The
11:29
Speaker 1: dogma of the nerd. That's the Dodgers. It's a box
11:33
Speaker 1: checking exercise. I have a couple people I still know
11:36
Speaker 1: over there when I did stuff years ago with the Dodgers,
11:39
Speaker 1: and I actually was sending messages to a few of them,
11:42
Speaker 1: and I said, listen, you could literally take anyone out
11:46
Speaker 1: of the pavilion a Dodger stadium and put them in
11:48
Speaker 1: the dugout as long as they can just follow the script.
11:51
Speaker 2: It's unbelievable.
11:51
Speaker 1: All right, Now, turning the pace, we go to the NFL.
11:54
Speaker 1: Why why not?
11:55
Speaker 2: And we're gonna start in Philadelphia.
11:57
Speaker 1: The eat Hey gee we e egles. They're left tackle
12:03
Speaker 1: Jordan by Latta not happy. He's had enough of the
12:06
Speaker 1: evil media. He's upset. You see this, He's upset with
12:09
Speaker 1: the media narrative that his team won the Super Bowl
12:12
Speaker 1: rematch against the Chiefs this past weekend because of Tushy.
12:16
Speaker 1: That's right. During a Philly radio interview. I'm sure that
12:20
Speaker 1: was riveting Jordan Mylatta rather than me, say let's go
12:24
Speaker 1: to the audio tip. Here's the Eagles left tackle commenting
12:27
Speaker 1: on his distaste for the media stories regarding the outcome
12:32
Speaker 1: of that Eagle Chiefs game.
12:34
Speaker 3: I understand the outrage. What I don't understand is them
12:38
Speaker 3: using it as an excuse to why we won the game.
12:40
Speaker 3: I think it's incredibly disrespectful to our defense and our
12:43
Speaker 3: special teams who bowled out my brother's on defense, the
12:46
Speaker 3: special teams who bought out that game, who had outbacks.
12:49
Speaker 2: When we went moving the ball or we went doing anything.
12:52
Speaker 3: That pisces me off because we give so much of
12:54
Speaker 3: this game and to kind of base of a short
12:58
Speaker 3: yardage play that is a bull play and say that
13:01
Speaker 3: we won the game off that, but not not how
13:04
Speaker 3: a defense played, not how our special teams have played,
13:06
Speaker 3: putting us in those positions. You know, I think it's
13:09
Speaker 3: I think it's bull crap. I just think it's rubbish.
13:11
Speaker 3: That's absolute rubbish.
13:12
Speaker 4: Man.
13:13
Speaker 3: It makes me makes my blood boil just singing about it.
13:16
Speaker 1: All right, So, question, what is the most puzzling thing
13:19
Speaker 1: about the Eagles left tackle?
13:21
Speaker 4: There?
13:21
Speaker 1: Jordan Marlatta grumbling, grumble, grumble, grumble about the media's obsession
13:25
Speaker 1: with the Tuschwitz.
13:26
Speaker 2: By the way, that's either.
13:26
Speaker 1: A accent from from from Georgia or from Australia. One
13:32
Speaker 1: of those two. Anyway, No, he's from Australia, so this
13:38
Speaker 1: is a rather bizarre mountain to die on. Like, and
13:41
Speaker 1: by the way, he's from Australia, does he really know
13:43
Speaker 1: American football? I mean, let's be honest here, come on,
13:45
Speaker 1: I mean, it's a rugby play. It's a rugby play.
13:47
Speaker 1: It's like Ozzie rules football. So here's I don't want
13:52
Speaker 1: to understand why these guys don't embrace it. I've said this,
13:55
Speaker 1: like their coach is like a schmuck. Everyone hates who's
13:58
Speaker 1: not an Eagle fan, Nick Siriannis. So why not just
14:00
Speaker 1: embrace the dark side? Right? Be Darth Vader, be Palpatine,
14:05
Speaker 1: be the become the meme, let the hate flow through
14:07
Speaker 1: you all that. Instead, you've got Jordan Mylotta out there,
14:12
Speaker 1: who's on the radios, you heard, and he's pouting like
14:15
Speaker 1: somebody left him out of the group chat, like he's
14:17
Speaker 1: upset by that.
14:18
Speaker 2: Many around the NFL are.
14:20
Speaker 1: Starting to reevaluate the philadel Fi Eagles, right, and this
14:24
Speaker 1: is what Jordan Mylotta doesn't like and the Eagles don't like.
14:27
Speaker 1: And I get it.
14:27
Speaker 2: I wouldn't like it either if I was the Eagles.
14:29
Speaker 1: But people are revisiting the Eagles here in this success,
14:31
Speaker 1: and they're like, well, wait a minute. You know this
14:34
Speaker 1: is about as authentic as the Grammy that Milli Vanilli
14:38
Speaker 1: won back in the day.
14:38
Speaker 2: If you don't know who that is, look it up.
14:40
Speaker 1: It's a they did lip syncing, very popular years ago,
14:42
Speaker 1: and they did lip syncing. They never sing the song Curl.
14:45
Speaker 1: You know it's true, you know it's true. Is it
14:48
Speaker 1: wrong to say that the Eagles are the Milli Vanilli
14:52
Speaker 1: of the twenty twenty five NFL?
14:54
Speaker 2: Right now?
14:54
Speaker 1: They're one trick. Their lip syncing is what they're doing,
14:59
Speaker 1: and they're really lipsticking their way through the NFL with
15:03
Speaker 1: that one play. So if I ask you what is
15:07
Speaker 1: great about the Philadelphia Eagles, what is top of the line,
15:12
Speaker 1: a number one pedigree?
15:14
Speaker 5: What is it?
15:15
Speaker 2: What are you gonna tell me? Well, they have a
15:17
Speaker 2: good defense.
15:18
Speaker 1: Okay, it's not the eighty five Chicago Bears defense. It's okay,
15:22
Speaker 1: it's fine. Let's peel this thing back, all right, So
15:25
Speaker 1: we peel it back. Jalen Hurts is he an elite quarterback? Well,
15:30
Speaker 1: I mean, if you expect a quarterback to throw for
15:32
Speaker 1: less than one hundred yards in some games, less than
15:34
Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty yards.
15:36
Speaker 2: Okay, that's elite for me. That's not a lead. I
15:38
Speaker 2: know you're just.
15:39
Speaker 1: Being a critic. Jalen Hurts not elite. Saquon Barkley is elite.
15:43
Speaker 1: That's terrific, but he's a running back. That doesn't make
15:47
Speaker 1: it tingle in modern football. It doesn't on defense and
15:51
Speaker 1: special teams fights, But nobody's posting on social media about
15:55
Speaker 1: the Eagles defense and special teams. The only thing, the
16:00
Speaker 1: only thing that is head and shoulders above the rest
16:02
Speaker 1: of the NFL is the tush push. That's it, end
16:07
Speaker 1: of it. That's that's all. They're it, and that's it.
16:10
Speaker 1: That's the entire act of the Philadelphia Eagles. That's it,
16:13
Speaker 1: and that's why people talk about this and Jordan Mailata
16:16
Speaker 1: doesn't like it, and the Eagles get all testy about
16:18
Speaker 1: this because it's it's for them. It's like the Staples,
16:22
Speaker 1: easy button running that play first and nine every time
16:26
Speaker 1: it's not first and ten, because if it's if it's
16:28
Speaker 1: fourth and one, they automatically get the first down. They
16:32
Speaker 1: convert ninety six point six percent of the time, ninety
16:37
Speaker 1: six point six percent of the time. That's how they operate.
16:41
Speaker 1: That's their secret ingredient right there. And so instead of
16:46
Speaker 1: just laughing it off and say, oh, you know whatever, no,
16:51
Speaker 1: it makes you look soft the reaction the Eagles have
16:54
Speaker 1: had to this, And if you're really, really good, you
16:58
Speaker 1: don't care what people are saying, because you're so dominant,
17:01
Speaker 1: you don't really care. However, the fact that factions of
17:06
Speaker 1: the philadel Fi Eagles they're so bothered by this proves
17:10
Speaker 1: one thing that we have nailed it. That Again, I
17:14
Speaker 1: don't think you should be banned the toush push. However,
17:18
Speaker 1: it's going to end up being banned now, Like at
17:21
Speaker 1: this point, we do the show right now, and in
17:24
Speaker 1: this moment, if you ask.
17:25
Speaker 2: Me, will this thing be banned? I say yes.
17:28
Speaker 1: But again, my advice here unsolicited advice of the Eagles,
17:31
Speaker 1: rather than whine and complain about it and have a
17:33
Speaker 1: conniption fit, is just embrace the tush push, embrace the hate,
17:39
Speaker 1: because the second that play gets banished by the NFL,
17:43
Speaker 1: the philadel Fi Eagles become a nine to eight type team.
17:47
Speaker 1: They're an eight to nine just the middle of the
17:48
Speaker 1: pack NFC team. They're nothing special with that play. They
17:53
Speaker 1: are special without that play.
17:55
Speaker 2: Eh, you know, don't really care about it. All right.
17:58
Speaker 1: Now, last word, we go to Minnesota, the quarterback shake
18:00
Speaker 1: up continues and the Vikings filling out their quarterback room
18:05
Speaker 1: with Desmond Ridder as the backup. Now, I normally would
18:09
Speaker 1: not would not partake in this because I don't really
18:14
Speaker 1: care about Desmond Ridder, But the coverage on this got
18:16
Speaker 1: my attention. So that's what I wanted to talk with
18:18
Speaker 1: you about. So the question is when where are you
18:21
Speaker 1: at on the NFL network reporting glowingly that the Vikings
18:27
Speaker 1: have added Desmond Ridder as a proven experienced starter. All right,
18:34
Speaker 1: So this is the old case of if you go
18:36
Speaker 1: and pick up a big heifer at the farm there,
18:38
Speaker 1: big giant, fat pig, and you put lipstick on it,
18:42
Speaker 1: it's still a pig. And so Desmond Ridder, we all agree,
18:46
Speaker 1: we've decided he stinks. And he's got eighteen starts with
18:49
Speaker 1: the Falcons and the Raiders and sixteen touchdowns, fourteen interceptions.
18:55
Speaker 1: That's not experienced. That is evidence, is what it is.
18:57
Speaker 1: It's evidence to show that he's not good. All a
19:00
Speaker 1: spade a spade. We believe in that, and so stop
19:02
Speaker 1: treating the people that consume your product like idiots. The
19:06
Speaker 1: state sponsored NFL media. They propped the news service of
19:09
Speaker 1: the NFL. People can google things. There's chat, GPT and
19:12
Speaker 1: other AI platforms now these days, so you can look
19:15
Speaker 1: up the numbers, you can dig around the numbers and
19:17
Speaker 1: all that. And if you look, Desmond Ridder is a
19:21
Speaker 1: dog with fleas. How would you like to meet Kevin O'Connell,
19:24
Speaker 1: Kevin O'Connell. It was all a quarterback whisperer. Kevin O'Connell.
19:28
Speaker 1: The man's got Carson Wentz on one side of the
19:30
Speaker 1: quarterback room and Desmond Ridder on the other side. Uh,
19:35
Speaker 1: this like raiding the mini bar. You're really really hungry.
19:39
Speaker 1: You go to your hotel, you raid the mini bar
19:41
Speaker 1: after your flight got canceled. You haven't eaten, the restaurants
19:44
Speaker 1: are closed. You end up getting a little tiny bottle
19:47
Speaker 1: of vodka and you have like five M and ms
19:50
Speaker 1: that you pay thirty five dollars for and then you
19:53
Speaker 1: immediately have therapy on speed dial. Is it's depressing? Carson
19:58
Speaker 1: Wentz and Desmond Ridder the dynam make fire duo, as
20:01
Speaker 1: in dumpster fire, not good fire, dumpster fire here.
20:05
Speaker 2: And so that's the quarterback room.
20:07
Speaker 1: It smells It smells like a wet dog, is what
20:10
Speaker 1: it smells like, My God, rolled in garbage. And there's
20:14
Speaker 1: the NFL Network, those bastions of truth who are reported.
20:18
Speaker 2: Oh no, no, it's like that.
20:19
Speaker 1: They love. They must love polishing turds over there, they
20:21
Speaker 1: must love it. It's like Desmond Ritters, the Hope Diamond. No,
20:25
Speaker 1: it's a turd, that's what it is. But he's an
20:28
Speaker 1: experienced starter. What are you talking about. I'd like to
20:32
Speaker 1: quote Nick Saban who famously said back at Alabama, when
20:37
Speaker 1: was asked about experience and returning starters and all that,
20:39
Speaker 1: he pointed out that just because you have experience does
20:42
Speaker 1: not mean you're good. It does not mean that you're good.
20:45
Speaker 1: And so it's gas lighting People's what it is. And
20:48
Speaker 1: I think there they think we're all a bunch of rubes.
20:51
Speaker 2: And you can.
20:52
Speaker 1: Maybe speak for yourself. I don't believe I'm a rube.
20:55
Speaker 2: I don't.
20:56
Speaker 1: And you do not need some kind of telescope to
20:59
Speaker 1: realize that desmer Ritter stinks. You just don't.
21:02
Speaker 2: You don't need that.
21:03
Speaker 1: And even Stevie Meetpauls who's blind, can can see. He
21:08
Speaker 1: can see that it is The Ben Mahlor Show as

23:21
Speaker 1: We began here with the Dodgers as Otani taking out
23:25
Speaker 1: five no hit inittings, another masterpiece by Dave Roberts and
23:29
Speaker 1: the Nerds. I'm mentioning Dave Roberts mostly because he's the
23:33
Speaker 1: face of this, even though he's just a useful idiot.
23:36
Speaker 1: That the front office is telling him what to do.
23:41
Speaker 1: Ferg Dog says Ben. If you're tired of being fed
23:44
Speaker 1: up with the Dodgers and Dave Roberts, it's time to
23:47
Speaker 1: make the switch. Become a Halo Hawk. We don't pull
23:50
Speaker 1: pitchers who have no hitters going under any scenario. Trust me,
23:56
Speaker 1: last time the Angels had a picture throw a no hitter?
23:58
Speaker 1: How long ago was that? Is that? Jared Weaver? Jared Weaver?
24:02
Speaker 7: Wow, that's my guess. I'm pretty sure that was the
24:04
Speaker 7: last one.
24:05
Speaker 1: Yeah, it seems about right. At least a decade ago, probably,
24:10
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, easily, yeah.
24:11
Speaker 2: At least a decade ago.
24:12
Speaker 1: Not a Burner Wright since it has Ben, I know,
24:14
Speaker 1: I know a guy that makes the new NFL hats
24:17
Speaker 1: and he's ready to mass produce the Ben Maller cap.
24:19
Speaker 1: Just let me know how many you need.
24:22
Speaker 2: Well, there it is.
24:23
Speaker 1: It's got the my logo and it's the size of
24:25
Speaker 1: a penny, which is appropriate, very nice.
24:28
Speaker 2: Right in the middle of that has a good looking thing.
24:30
Speaker 7: I'm an idiot. I'm wrong. I was wrong.
24:31
Speaker 2: When was it Cooper two weeks ago?
24:33
Speaker 7: Read dett Meers did it in twenty twenty two?
24:36
Speaker 2: Really, but nobody watched it, so did it happen? Nobody
24:40
Speaker 2: saw it?
24:40
Speaker 7: But yeah, Jared Weavers was in twenty twelve.
24:43
Speaker 1: All right, Ryan writes in Ryan, who is a regular
24:46
Speaker 1: listener to the show, lives in San Diego, but his
24:50
Speaker 1: heart is in Socals. Oh see, He says, Ben, I
24:54
Speaker 1: agree with you one thousand percent on your Dodger modelogue
24:57
Speaker 1: as as long as Sekwan Barkley doesn't go Eric Dickerson
25:00
Speaker 1: on the Rams and the Rams should beat Philly this weekend.
25:04
Speaker 1: The he says, the Vikings will regret not putting all
25:06
Speaker 1: their chips in on Sam Darneld Well, no, I don't.
25:09
Speaker 2: I don't agree with that last part.
25:10
Speaker 1: Let's not. Let's not get crazy here. Mark from Queen's
25:14
Speaker 1: Rights In he says, hey, big Ben and the Eagles
25:18
Speaker 1: offensive lineman Jordan Mylotta. He could just blame it on
25:22
Speaker 1: the rain, like lip syncing Millie Vanilli before the the
25:28
Speaker 1: untimely demise of half of million Vanilla. Now interesting fun fact,
25:33
Speaker 1: Mark that I in my my early days in radio,
25:39
Speaker 1: I was working at AM eleven fifty in La which
25:43
Speaker 1: was kiss Am down the Hall was the iconic kiss
25:46
Speaker 1: f film the top forty station, one of the great
25:48
Speaker 1: radio stations of all time, right, and they hired as
25:52
Speaker 1: a gag half of Milli Vanilli. Once the scandal came out,
25:56
Speaker 1: they hired the obviously the living half of Million Vanilli.
26:00
Speaker 1: So he was doing a one hour midday show at
26:02
Speaker 1: Kiss FM, and I was doing the midday show down
26:05
Speaker 1: the hall. So I ran into this guy and it
26:08
Speaker 1: was I think they the undoing of that band. Weren't
26:11
Speaker 1: they doing a gig somewhere like in Rhode Island or something?
26:14
Speaker 1: If I remember the story, and I vaguely remember a
26:17
Speaker 1: long time ago, but this band was very popular and
26:19
Speaker 1: was exposed. They never sang the songs. They were all
26:22
Speaker 1: lip syncing, and I think they were doing a gig
26:24
Speaker 1: in like Rhode Island, and the soundtrack skipped while they
26:30
Speaker 1: were lip syncing and came a bit of a problem
26:35
Speaker 1: for them. And that was the beginning of the end.
26:37
Speaker 1: If I remember barbecuing Lane out of retirement, checks and
26:41
Speaker 1: says Dave Roberts still took the team out for ice
26:44
Speaker 1: cream after the game, right, Ben, Yeah, they had ice cream. Well,
26:47
Speaker 1: actually what they did is because the players can't go
26:49
Speaker 1: out as a team because they have things to do,
26:50
Speaker 1: so they brought a mister softy truck up and they
26:53
Speaker 1: put that right near the clubhouse of the players who
26:55
Speaker 1: get some nice mister Softy on their way out. Scott
26:58
Speaker 1: god Wrights, and he says, it's ironic that Dave roberts
27:00
Speaker 1: nickname is doc since doctors are smart. He's all right,
27:05
Speaker 1: very very funny, as I would expect from Scott as
27:10
Speaker 1: a comedian. Rob says, the real question is how will
27:13
Speaker 1: the biggest Dodger apologists spin this to bail out Dave Roberts. Well,
27:18
Speaker 1: I know Dave Roberts. I really liked him in that spot.
27:21
Speaker 1: I really liked him. Let's go to the phones. Eric
27:23
Speaker 1: is in SoCal and he's in the leadoff chair. Hello, Eric,
27:26
Speaker 1: I see a lot of Ambia noise. Hello, I hear
27:28
Speaker 1: a lot of Ambia noise.
27:29
Speaker 2: Hello Eric.
27:31
Speaker 8: Let me try or something, but so give game. I
27:38
Speaker 8: started thinking, as Otani, uh, the flashbacks from playing with
27:42
Speaker 8: the Angels, because kind of came out come is all
27:44
Speaker 8: their games because he's going to lead with his pitching
27:47
Speaker 8: hits a bullpen in and then I'll just evaporate and
27:50
Speaker 8: they lose the game.
27:52
Speaker 1: Well, of course, the difference is that would be impossible
27:55
Speaker 1: because he's probably blinded by the glare of that World
27:58
Speaker 1: Series trophy they won thanks to the yank He's incompetence.
28:00
Speaker 1: In Game five of the World Series where they gave
28:02
Speaker 1: the game to the Dodgers because they couldn't play baseball,
28:04
Speaker 1: they come by defense.
28:06
Speaker 5: What is that?
28:06
Speaker 1: What is that?
28:07
Speaker 2: What is going on?
28:08
Speaker 8: What was that noise of these new trucks?
28:12
Speaker 1: Oh man, dude, very careful? Wow that would did you
28:16
Speaker 1: cross over the lane or something? What happened?
28:19
Speaker 8: I slightly drifted on the on the bog line over here,
28:23
Speaker 8: and okay, it's a stimulation strip.
28:26
Speaker 1: Oh man, Wait a minute, I watched hold secon Now.
28:30
Speaker 1: I watched that episode of The Simpsons years ago. I
28:32
Speaker 1: thought those trucks drive themselves. I didn't realize you actually
28:34
Speaker 1: have to drive them.
28:37
Speaker 8: I got one of those yet.
28:39
Speaker 1: No, Now, do you have a sleeper? Do you have
28:41
Speaker 1: like a bed in the back and the whole setup
28:43
Speaker 1: or is this just a temporaries that?
28:44
Speaker 2: Yeah, so you don't have that.
28:46
Speaker 8: Just a two front seats and that's nothing in the back.
28:49
Speaker 8: So alright, going to San Diego?
28:51
Speaker 2: So gotcha?
28:53
Speaker 1: All right, Well say hello to everyone at Camp Pendleton
28:55
Speaker 1: on your way down to San Diego.
28:57
Speaker 2: All right, all right, all right, there you go. Thank
28:59
Speaker 2: you there Eric checking in.
29:02
Speaker 1: So congratulations to the Dodgers. It was historical suck the
29:06
Speaker 1: Los Angeles Dodgers, managed by Dave Roberts and an army
29:10
Speaker 1: of nerds. The Dodgers became the first team since at
29:13
Speaker 1: least nineteen oh six. You do the math, so it's
29:17
Speaker 1: twenty twenty five right now, So that's almost one hundred
29:21
Speaker 1: and twenty years. My computer like brain tells me the
29:23
Speaker 1: first team since nineteen oh six. That's right, mal math.
29:28
Speaker 1: To get five or more no hit innings from a
29:31
Speaker 1: starting pitcher and have the bullpen allow nine or more
29:37
Speaker 1: runs in the game. Wow, that had not happen. Think
29:40
Speaker 1: about the invention since nineteen oh six. Think about the
29:43
Speaker 1: things that are in the world now that we're not
29:46
Speaker 1: there in nineteen oh six and here we are. So wow,
29:53
Speaker 1: that is wild Man alive. Just absolutely perfect, just absolutely
30:00
Speaker 1: the things that we did not have in nineteen oh
30:02
Speaker 1: six on the plane that we do have now. So
30:04
Speaker 1: there you go, outstanding, that's that's the Dodgers. But everything's fine,
30:07
Speaker 1: nothing to worry about here. And where those Dodger apologies
30:11
Speaker 1: that normally call up are they in hiding? Even they
30:13
Speaker 1: can't defend Dave Roberts. Where's that dope? And Bakersfield? Where's
30:16
Speaker 1: that loser? He's not Andrew. Where's Andrew and Bakersfield? Oh,
30:19
Speaker 1: everything's fun, everything's oh, guy shoving up your tucks with
30:22
Speaker 1: the tush push All right, I guess exactly now. We've
30:28
Speaker 1: had a lot of NFL injuries over the last week,
30:33
Speaker 1: a few days here. It's embarrassing, guys. Two weeks into
30:37
Speaker 1: the year, we've had what five six quarterbacks already knocked
30:39
Speaker 1: out or could be knocked out. And in baseball the playoffs,
30:43
Speaker 1: there's only a couple weeks ago in the baseball season,
30:45
Speaker 1: then the playoffs begin and there are some big time
30:49
Speaker 1: injuries in the playoffs. My favorite baseball injury, though, the
30:52
Speaker 1: Cheating Astros. Your Don Alvarez, the mammoth sized four Dodger
31:00
Speaker 1: minor leaguer jr. Don Alvarez of the Cheating Astros.
31:06
Speaker 2: Is going to be out.
31:07
Speaker 1: He suffered an injury while crossing home plate in the
31:11
Speaker 1: bottom of the first He was injured by hitting home plate.
31:16
Speaker 1: And they say baseball players aren't tough. What's wrong with you?
31:20
Speaker 2: So anyway?
31:20
Speaker 1: You Don Alvarez expected to miss an extended period of
31:23
Speaker 1: time because of a They say it's a sprained ankle.
31:28
Speaker 1: It sounds worse than that, but according to the cheating
31:31
Speaker 1: Astros manager Joe Espata, it's going to keep him out
31:35
Speaker 1: for a while. It's he says, let's not get into
31:38
Speaker 1: day's weeks or any of that. Well, no, that's important,
31:41
Speaker 1: you dummy. That's important the playoffs starting, like two weeks
31:45
Speaker 1: the postseason begins and the Astro's hanging around. You look
31:51
Speaker 1: at the baseball standings here and it is getting very
31:55
Speaker 1: very interesting down the home stretch. So because this is
31:58
Speaker 1: manipulated by Baseball, they kept adding wildcard teams and so
32:01
Speaker 1: this stuff ends up getting manipulated.
32:03
Speaker 2: But the wild card.
32:05
Speaker 1: Standings right now, if you look at it, the Astros
32:10
Speaker 1: have a half game lead over the Red Sox for
32:12
Speaker 1: the second wild card. But then you look at the
32:14
Speaker 1: American League West standings and you're like, well, wait a minute, here,
32:18
Speaker 1: I'm looking at that, and then the Mariners are a
32:19
Speaker 1: half game up one game in the lost column. So
32:23
Speaker 1: it's neck and neck between the Mariners, who are on
32:27
Speaker 1: a burner ten games streak, and then the Astros, both
32:33
Speaker 1: likely to make the playoffs. The Texas Rangers were looking
32:37
Speaker 1: pretty good. And now they've lost three games in a row,
32:40
Speaker 1: much to the dismay, much to the dismay of our
32:44
Speaker 1: friend in Arlington, Ed in Arlington, let's call the phones
32:49
Speaker 1: now to defend Dave robertson competence, we go to Andrew
32:52
Speaker 1: in Bakersfield. Defend your guy. Come on, Andrew, defend your guy.
32:55
Speaker 1: Defend him, Andro, defend him.
33:00
Speaker 5: Okay, so I missed most of the game.
33:02
Speaker 1: Very convenient, very convenient.
33:06
Speaker 5: But my only question is if you know that that
33:10
Speaker 5: show Hay is on a special schedule because of.
33:13
Speaker 2: What he does.
33:14
Speaker 1: He take the short bus to the stadium.
33:17
Speaker 5: Okay, So if Dave Roberts would have left him in
33:20
Speaker 5: and show Hey threw out his arm, wouldn't you just
33:23
Speaker 5: be saying the exact opposite.
33:25
Speaker 1: No, I would be saying, that's fine. He threw sixty
33:27
Speaker 1: eight pitches. What Why don't you just announce it? My
33:29
Speaker 1: name is Andrew and Bakersfield. I'm a woos. Why don't
33:32
Speaker 1: you just announce that?
33:32
Speaker 2: Andrew?
33:33
Speaker 1: Just announce it right now, announce it right now, just
33:35
Speaker 1: say it. Say it.
33:37
Speaker 5: How many innings did he pitch last time?
33:39
Speaker 1: He said sixty. I don't care about inning sixty eight
33:43
Speaker 1: pitches you're again, how many you're a sixty eight pitches
33:48
Speaker 1: he threw last time? I don't care how many pitches.
33:52
Speaker 1: Sixty eight pitches is nothing. And if he's that soft,
33:55
Speaker 1: he shouldn't be playing Major League Baseball. How about that?
33:57
