0:05
Speaker 1: Ben Maller Show, show me your lightning bolt. And we
0:10
Speaker 1: go to our number three. How big a deal is
0:12
Speaker 1: Chargers coach Jim Harbaugh publicly telling quarterback Justin Herbert to, quote,
0:17
Speaker 1: be better? We'll talk about that. Getting a lot of attention.
0:22
Speaker 1: as Harbaugh had been buttering the biscuits of his quarterback.
0:27
Speaker 1: And now, maybe I'll change it up a little bit.
0:30
Speaker 1: And do you buy Sean McVay's misunderstanding with the timing
0:36
Speaker 1: for ending his Rams news conference early after the officials
0:41
Speaker 1: gave the Rams the screwjob in Denver the other night?
0:45
Speaker 1: And is Harry Kane, that's a soccer player, disrespecting NFL
0:50
Speaker 1: kickers by suggesting that a year or so of practice,
0:54
Speaker 1: not even a year, like six months of practice, might
0:56
Speaker 1: be enough to join the NFL as a kicker? And
1:00
Speaker 1: we'll explain. He's, I think I'm planning on doing that.
1:04
Speaker 2: Really?
1:04
Speaker 3: Okay.
1:04
Speaker 1: We'll take a look at that. And who knows where
1:07
Speaker 1: else we go. Shazam! It's hour number three. Changing your

2:44
Speaker 1: lead story this year don't.
2:46
Speaker 4: Bear the lead my man we start out in la
2:48
Speaker 4: la land power outage power outage as chargers coach jim
2:55
Speaker 4: harbaugh chargers coach jim harbaugh delivering a rare public critique
3:01
Speaker 4: of his quarterback justin herbert we have spent many a
3:05
Speaker 4: time on this show over the last couple of months
3:08
Speaker 4: talking about how jim harbaugh has knee pads on for his.
3:13
Speaker 1: And saying all kinds of wonderful things. Well, if you
3:16
Speaker 1: didn't hear what he had to say, perhaps not, we
3:18
Speaker 1: have the audio tape. There were two words. that stood
3:21
Speaker 1: out about what Jim Harbaugh had to say. So rather
3:24
Speaker 1: than me give you those words, let's go to the
3:27
Speaker 1: audio tape. Here's the head coach of the Chargers.
3:30
Speaker 3: Yeah, to be better.
3:31
Speaker 5: To be better.
3:32
Speaker 1: That's it.
3:33
Speaker 5: That drives Justin. That drives me. That drives his position coach.
3:39
Speaker 5: That drives Mike, the coordinator. I mean, it drives us all.
3:45
Speaker 1: So he said he'd be better. That was the phrase there.
3:48
Speaker 1: So Justin Herbert charges are 0-3 after Sunday's amazing loss
3:54
Speaker 1: to Buffalo. And they have continued their disastrous start. Herbert
3:58
Speaker 1: completing less than 60% of his passes, three touchdowns, four interceptions.
4:03
Speaker 1: And against Buffalo, this is a special kind of L.
4:07
Speaker 1: It's one of those memorable kind of losses. The Chargers
4:09
Speaker 1: scored only 16 points. Despite the fact the Bills committed
4:14
Speaker 1: not one, not two, not three, not four, five turnovers.
4:18
Speaker 1: And so now the head coach using the phrase, be better.
4:23
Speaker 1: Jim Harbaugh commenting on his quarterback. So that is a
4:26
Speaker 1: good jumping off point. Let us discuss the question. How
4:30
Speaker 1: big a deal? How big a deal is Chargers coach
4:33
Speaker 1: Jim Harbaugh publicly telling quarterback Justin Herbert to be better?
4:40
Speaker 1: To be better. So I've got library, Nintendo, and just
4:46
Speaker 1: add water. And we will combine all of these things
4:50
Speaker 1: together as we attempt to make a point. We're going
4:54
Speaker 1: to try to make a point. Now, to lead off here,
4:58
Speaker 1: the headlines on this story are next level. On the interweb,
5:03
Speaker 1: the headlines are, Jim Harbaugh turns on Justin Herbert. And
5:08
Speaker 1: then you hear the audio, and you're like, be better?
5:13
Speaker 1: That's it? That's a big confrontation? Be better? For years,
5:20
Speaker 1: Jim Harbaugh treated Justin Herbert like a mother displaying a
5:23
Speaker 1: straight-A face. student's report card on the refrigerator. Endless love letters. Oh,
5:30
Speaker 1: you're so great. Nonstop praise. Nonstop praise. And so now
5:35
Speaker 1: we're at the point where Harbaugh finally apparently realizes, wait
5:39
Speaker 1: a minute, all these years of telling Justin how wonderful
5:43
Speaker 1: he was apparently aren't working. They're not working. And he
5:47
Speaker 1: didn't even go that tough. This is the football equivalent
5:53
Speaker 1: of we need to talk. We need to have a talk.
5:56
Speaker 1: And Harbaugh did not rip Justin Herbert. I don't think
6:00
Speaker 1: of this as a rip job. Some of you do.
6:03
Speaker 1: I feel like this is lightly scratching the protective coating
6:07
Speaker 1: around Justin Herbert. That's what this is. In terms of
6:11
Speaker 1: constructive criticism, this was... less a public flogging and more
6:18
Speaker 1: like a strongly worded letter from the library. It was
6:22
Speaker 1: a reminder. You've got an overdue book. You might want
6:25
Speaker 1: to return the book. It's like a mosquito bite situation there.
6:29
Speaker 1: But after years of aggressive support, it's how pathetic this is.
6:35
Speaker 1: By saying be better from Jim Harbaugh, it's practically a
6:40
Speaker 1: Shakespearean betrayal of Justin Herbert. It is an admission that
6:46
Speaker 1: the honeymoon is not going as well. Either that or
6:51
Speaker 1: he's just run out of other people to blame. Although
6:53
Speaker 1: he did include everyone, as all these coaches are taught
6:56
Speaker 1: when they go to their little meetings and they have
6:59
Speaker 1: their webinars. And it's like how to publicly criticize your players.
7:02
Speaker 1: You must always include yourself. You must always include your assistants.
7:06
Speaker 1: You cannot just attack a player. These guys are too delicate.
7:11
Speaker 1: They're too sensitive. This generation of players, they grew up
7:14
Speaker 1: with the, hey, we're great. Everyone loves us. And so
7:17
Speaker 1: you cannot just unload on them. Now, in previous generations,
7:21
Speaker 1: you could absolutely unload on players. So it's more like
7:27
Speaker 1: it's not a breakup. It's like a lover's quarrel between
7:31
Speaker 1: Jim Harbaugh. And Justin Herbert here. But next week, who knows?
7:36
Speaker 1: Harbaugh might actually demand that Justin Herbert. Complete passes to
7:40
Speaker 1: his own teammates. Now that would be criticism. And some
7:44
Speaker 1: of you people would be triggered. You know who you are.
7:45
Speaker 1: You people. Oh, I can't believe Jim did that.
7:48
Speaker 6: You've got to be nice to Justin Herbert.
7:51
Speaker 1: Oh, my God.
7:52
Speaker 6: All right.
7:52
Speaker 1: Furthermore, we stay in La La Land. We now go
7:55
Speaker 1: to the apology heard around the NFL. Sean McVay. Sean
7:59
Speaker 1: McVay spending part of Monday apologizing after the post-game news
8:05
Speaker 1: conference in Denver following the Rams' loss to the Broncos. Now,
8:10
Speaker 1: he ended the news conference prior to the beat writers
8:14
Speaker 1: for the team actually getting to the room. What?
8:19
Speaker 5: Yes.
8:20
Speaker 1: Sean McVay, he decided to end his news conference before
8:24
Speaker 1: the actual main media showed up. The session lasted about
8:27
Speaker 1: 90 seconds. Insert joke here. Making it appear McVay bailed
8:33
Speaker 1: out after a emotional defeat, courtesy of the referees there
8:37
Speaker 1: in Denver that were wearing their Bronco orange as they
8:41
Speaker 1: were officiating the game late. McVay blaming a timing misunderstanding.
8:46
Speaker 1: That was the initial report, a timing misunderstanding, saying he
8:50
Speaker 1: had already been speaking before reporters arrived. And after one question...
8:57
Speaker 1: In long silence, McVay said he thought the session was
9:01
Speaker 1: over and insisted he never intended to avoid questions. Now,
9:05
Speaker 1: the Rams PR department, trying to clean up the mess,
9:08
Speaker 1: blamed the media, of course. That's always good PR work.
9:10
Speaker 1: Stand by your coach, and the PR hacks did that.
9:13
Speaker 1: So the question, do you buy Sean McVay's, quote, misunderstanding
9:20
Speaker 1: with the timing explanation for ending his news conference earlier?
9:24
Speaker 1: You buy that. Do you? Okay. You do? No? You don't?
9:30
Speaker 1: All right, so my response on this, I'm going to
9:34
Speaker 1: play the Wheel of Fortune, and I would like an N,
9:37
Speaker 1: and can I also buy a vowel? I would like
9:39
Speaker 1: to buy an O. Let's put them together, and I'm
9:41
Speaker 1: going to go no. No, no, no, no, no. Sean
9:46
Speaker 1: McVay's original spin did not pass the smell test, and
9:51
Speaker 1: so now he has to take his... medicine with a
9:55
Speaker 1: spoonful of sugar. It helps the medicine go down. So
9:58
Speaker 1: he's taking his medicine with a spoon. of sugar and
10:00
Speaker 1: it's not expialidocious and all that stuff. Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious. So his
10:06
Speaker 1: Monday apologies, basically. So apparently you guys saw that and
10:11
Speaker 1: you didn't seem very happy. 90 seconds. Now, I'm told
10:14
Speaker 1: that 90 seconds is not a news conference. That is
10:16
Speaker 1: a TikTok. Even that's likely too long for a TikTok. Now,
10:20
Speaker 1: Captain Cranky there, and we're talking about Sean McVay, simply
10:24
Speaker 1: hitting the emergency exit because he was pissed and he
10:28
Speaker 1: wanted out. I got to get out of here. I'm
10:30
Speaker 1: pissed off. I got to get out of here. Now,
10:33
Speaker 1: the Rams public relations team made an unforced error. They
10:38
Speaker 1: posted on social media trying to put lipstick on on
10:41
Speaker 1: the 92nd McVeigh Disappearing Act. Bad job by them. McVeigh
10:47
Speaker 1: makes a lot of money. He's very good at his job.
10:49
Speaker 1: He does not need to be babied. You don't have
10:51
Speaker 1: to baby Sean McVeigh. So just stop. He's your head coach.
10:56
Speaker 1: He's been around. He's a man. He's 40. And he's
11:00
Speaker 1: not some 8-year-old kid that just lost at Nintendo. So
11:05
Speaker 1: stop with that. I don't even know if he plays Nintendo.
11:08
Speaker 1: He probably doesn't. McVay's apology is basically the adult version
11:12
Speaker 1: of returning to the principal's office on Monday morning. It's
11:16
Speaker 1: amateur hour. Now, had the Rams won, me thinks that
11:21
Speaker 1: Sean McVay would have been out there with bells on,
11:24
Speaker 1: smiling from ear to ear. Oh, it's so great. They
11:27
Speaker 1: would have to drag him, have to gong him off
11:29
Speaker 1: the stage, Sean McVay, if it had been the other
11:33
Speaker 1: way around. But alas, it was not. McVay did not
11:36
Speaker 1: blame the referees publicly. Privately, we imagine there is a
11:41
Speaker 1: different story going on from Sean McVay. But publicly, he
11:44
Speaker 1: played it down the middle and said, no, we're not
11:45
Speaker 1: going to be that team and all that. We'll see
11:48
Speaker 1: if privately he feels that way. Now, the last thing,
11:52
Speaker 1: a crossover story to football. We go to football where
11:58
Speaker 1: English soccer star Harry Kane has announced recently that that
12:04
Speaker 1: he is thinking about becoming an NFL kicker.
12:08
Speaker 3: What?
12:10
Speaker 1: Yes, the well-known global soccer player. I believe he plays
12:14
Speaker 1: in Germany now. And he is considering a career in
12:19
Speaker 1: the NFL. Now, he says it's not going to happen
12:21
Speaker 1: right now. It's still a little ways away. I guess
12:24
Speaker 1: because he's got a contract. And he has said that
12:28
Speaker 1: is more realistic. He's also talked in the past about
12:30
Speaker 1: being a professional golfer. He believes playing in the NFL
12:34
Speaker 1: is more realistic. He's 33 years old at this point,
12:37
Speaker 1: so he's already passed his athletic prime, Harry Kane. The
12:39
Speaker 1: soccer striker currently plays for a team in Germany, I
12:43
Speaker 1: am told. And he is plotting an NFL future in
12:48
Speaker 1: the National Football League. He floated recently an unusual possibility
12:53
Speaker 1: of playing soccer and kicking in in the National Football
12:58
Speaker 1: League in the same period of time, playing in the MLS.
13:01
Speaker 1: That's where all washed-up global soccer stars go. It's like
13:05
Speaker 1: a retirement community for the washed-up former stars. They go
13:08
Speaker 1: to the MLS, and you people buy tickets and jerseys.
13:11
Speaker 1: You get so excited. It's a messy situation, if you
13:15
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. So Kane says this is where
13:18
Speaker 1: it gets good. So he says all you would have
13:20
Speaker 1: to do is devote six months, six months to practicing kicking,
13:26
Speaker 1: And then he would be good to go to play
13:29
Speaker 1: in the NFL. So the question is, is the global
13:33
Speaker 1: soccer star Harry Keane disrespecting NFL kickers by suggesting that
13:39
Speaker 1: less than a year of practice might be enough to
13:43
Speaker 1: join their profession and play in the NFL? So on
13:48
Speaker 1: this one, I am shaking my head no. I do
13:51
Speaker 1: not believe this is an act of disrespect. This is
13:54
Speaker 1: not an act of malfeasance. I'm still shaking my head no.
13:57
Speaker 1: He's just keeping it real. He is. And we know
14:01
Speaker 1: from watching American football that kickers are not core members
14:07
Speaker 1: of the team. They're just not. Think of it like
14:10
Speaker 1: independent contractors. The kicker in the NFL is the independent contractor.
14:15
Speaker 1: They get helmets. They get a locker. They get a jockstrap.
14:18
Speaker 1: The NFL, though, treats them like disposable razors. And they
14:24
Speaker 1: stop working. You don't worry about it. You're like, all right, well,
14:27
Speaker 1: that doesn't work. I'll just get another razor because it's
14:29
Speaker 1: not working. That's why. And that's it. And it has
14:33
Speaker 1: worked when you've taken non-NFL players, people that haven't played
14:37
Speaker 1: American football much or at all, and then they've turned
14:41
Speaker 1: out to be decent. Some have been really good. The Cowboys,
14:44
Speaker 1: Brandon Aubrey was a soccer player at Notre Dame, and
14:48
Speaker 1: he has become one of the top. kickers in the
14:52
Speaker 1: nfl if not the top kicker in the nfl and
14:55
Speaker 1: he's proved the soccer to the nfl pipeline does work
14:59
Speaker 1: and so you bring a guy like harry kane in
15:01
Speaker 1: bringing something better he would bring a circus under the
15:05
Speaker 1: big top fun for all ages why not he has
15:10
Speaker 1: a golden boot world fame and more importantly If you're
15:13
Speaker 1: a global soccer player and you want to play in
15:16
Speaker 1: the national football league, you've got to know somebody. Remember,
15:18
Speaker 1: it's not what you know, it's who you know. And
15:20
Speaker 1: we are told that he is buddies with Tom Brady.
15:24
Speaker 1: In fact, he has Tom Brady's cell phone number. Yeah,
15:28
Speaker 1: about that. With Brady calling the shots, he's the de
15:33
Speaker 1: facto GM and the owner of the Raiders. He's really
15:36
Speaker 1: running the team day to day. So the soccer player,
15:40
Speaker 1: Harry Kane, he would not even have to knock on
15:42
Speaker 1: the door. He would just be allowed in. That's it.
15:46
Speaker 1: NFO teams get absolutely horny for international attention. They keep
15:51
Speaker 1: playing these games overseas because they feel like they can
15:54
Speaker 1: convince people around the world to be dummies to buy
15:58
Speaker 1: their merch, their overpriced NFL merch. And so they're excited
16:03
Speaker 1: about these international games, international celebrities coming to the NFL,
16:07
Speaker 1: and their eyeballs get the size of saucers. They're like, oh, man,
16:10
Speaker 1: think of the jersey sales. We can have a documentary
16:14
Speaker 1: crew come in there, and it creates this double standard
16:19
Speaker 1: where the celebrity– beats the specialism every time. It works
16:25
Speaker 1: in a lot of ways. There's a case where you
16:28
Speaker 1: get to, if you're a celebrity, in coaching. That guy,
16:35
Speaker 1: podcaster J.J. Redick, who did a podcast with LeBron James,
16:38
Speaker 1: he had no business being a coach. He's proven to
16:40
Speaker 1: be a terrible coach. And J.J. Redick, he got the
16:43
Speaker 1: job because he was like a celebrity because he hung
16:44
Speaker 1: out with LeBron James. Things like that happen all the time.
16:48
Speaker 1: So it is a made-for-TV sideshow. Just add water. Just
16:54
Speaker 1: add water. You get a film crew out there and
16:57
Speaker 1: six months of practice, and there you go. And it's
17:00
Speaker 1: not exactly science fiction here, kicking in the NFL. It's
17:05
Speaker 1: a case of who you know and how big a
17:07
Speaker 1: celebrity are you. It's the Ben Maller Show. If you

Speaker 1: long time. And on the X Machine, at Ben Maller.
19:38
Speaker 1: Lorena is here. on Fox. Been the same number for
19:43
Speaker 1: a long time. And on the X machine at Ben Maler,
19:49
Speaker 1: Lorraine is here. Not doing the cocaine FSR tech queen.
19:54
Speaker 1: As far as we know. And, and a Koopa loop
19:57
Speaker 1: right over there.
19:58
Speaker 2: It was nice and clean.
19:58
Speaker 3: Listen.
20:00
Speaker 1: Koopaloop, say hello to Koop right there. A Bronco fan,
20:03
Speaker 1: that's a Bronco fan. Your comments can and will be
20:06
Speaker 1: used against you in the court of sports radio, so
20:09
Speaker 1: please act accordingly. Well, here is the riddle of the day.
20:18
Speaker 1: And the Mallory riddle of the day, NBC announced that
20:21
Speaker 1: they are literally building a blank to celebrate their first
20:25
Speaker 1: MLB postseason in 2016. All right. Alf the Alien O'Piner
20:33
Speaker 1: says a giant metal cock. You know those things you
20:37
Speaker 1: get at the Home Depot or whatever out in front there?
20:40
Speaker 3: Oh, yeah.
20:41
Speaker 1: You know what I'm talking about?
20:42
Speaker 2: Yeah.
20:43
Speaker 1: Anyway, what else do we have? A giant cardboard food
20:46
Speaker 1: dispenser from OG Art Puffin. Al Capone's vault from Michael
20:51
Speaker 1: in Tulsa. Who else? A tower of beer bottles from
20:55
Speaker 1: Late Night Drug Tester. Our buddy Inca Terror from New
21:00
Speaker 1: York says a 26-foot-tall Lego display of all 26 letters
21:05
Speaker 1: of the alphabet. That would be great. JT the Wingman
21:09
Speaker 1: says a rebuilt The Max diner set from Saved by
21:13
Speaker 1: the Bell. If you know, you know. That would be great.
21:18
Speaker 1: I'm sure they have that somewhere. What else do we have?
21:20
Speaker 1: Page down. I can't read that. Hoosier Bill says retired
21:25
Speaker 1: caller blindscots bathroom. A disaster, he said. Okay, I don't
21:30
Speaker 1: know what that's about. That's a non-sequitur. FillerUpPhil says chocolate
21:34
Speaker 1: chip cookie waterfall is the answer. Donkey Sausage said NBC
21:41
Speaker 1: to celebrate the baseball playoffs, putting a giant peacock out
21:45
Speaker 1: in front there. What else do we have? Page down.
21:49
Speaker 1: I can't read that. What else do we have? Let's see.
21:53
Speaker 1: Skip over that one. All right, that's enough. Lorena, do
21:56
Speaker 1: you have an answer, Lorena, please? Yes, I think they
21:58
Speaker 1: built a jumbo commode. A jumbo commode. Is that the answer? No,
22:04
Speaker 1: it is incorrect.
22:05
Speaker 2: That would have been good.
22:06
Speaker 1: Great answer. NBC announced they literally built a house of
22:10
Speaker 1: cards to celebrate their first postseason. You see, it's called
22:14
Speaker 1: the wild card round, Lorena.
22:16
Speaker 2: Oh, I see the play on words.
22:18
Speaker 1: Yeah, some executive there at NBC said this is a
22:21
Speaker 1: good idea. Let's green light this. A 25-foot tall house
22:25
Speaker 1: of wild cards at 30 Rockefeller Center, right there in
22:30
Speaker 1: midtown Manhattan. at the network headquarters as they will have
22:35
Speaker 1: the MLB wildcard exclusive coverage, which does begin some TV
22:41
Speaker 1: people pointing out the total disrespect. that certain matchups are
22:48
Speaker 1: only available on Peacock and not on NBC as they
22:52
Speaker 1: try to put the glamour teams on the big TV.
22:57
Speaker 1: I think the Red Sox-Yankees, by the way, that's a
23:00
Speaker 1: wildcard matchup. That will be one of the games on
23:04
Speaker 1: the schedule. There are four games today at the Yankees
23:08
Speaker 1: and the Red Sox. And that's the primetime game. The
23:12
Speaker 1: late game in the National League has the Cubs and
23:16
Speaker 1: the Padres. And in the early game, the Phillies and
23:21
Speaker 1: the Braves in the National League. That'll be a 2
23:26
Speaker 1: o'clock start, I believe. I think it's 2 o'clock Eastern,
23:28
Speaker 1: 11 o'clock in the West. And then you've got, after that,
23:32
Speaker 1: the White Sox and the Astros, the cheating a-holes. And
23:37
Speaker 1: that will be at 5, just after 5 o'clock Eastern,
23:42
Speaker 1: 2 o'clock in the West. And I want to puke
23:45
Speaker 1: in my mouth as the, I believe there are four
23:47
Speaker 1: teams today going with bullpen games. In the playoff.
23:51
Speaker 2: Gross.
23:51
Speaker 1: Exactly. What is a bullpen game, Lorena? I'm disgusted.
23:54
Speaker 2: It's where the bulls are in the pen.
23:57
Speaker 1: That is correct.
23:58
Speaker 2: Very simple.
23:59
Speaker 1: Yes, that is. You know, no one really knows why
24:02
Speaker 1: they call it the bullpen. There's different theories on.
24:04
Speaker 3: Why it's called.
24:04
Speaker 1: It's like where they wait, though, right? Well, they always
24:06
Speaker 1: called it the bullpen, but there was one theory that
24:09
Speaker 1: was because in the early days of baseball, there was
24:11
Speaker 1: an advertisement for a, like a rodeo thing with a bull.
24:15
Speaker 1: Then there's another theory that they, some of the older
24:18
Speaker 1: stadiums actually had a pen for bulls and that's where
24:22
Speaker 1: they put the relief pitchers. I, but nobody seems to
24:24
Speaker 1: know exactly where they, they came up with that. Anyway.
24:28
Speaker 1: All right. It is the Ben Maller show. Let's go
24:30
Speaker 1: to the phones and let's say hello. Eeny, meeny, miny, moe.
24:33
Speaker 1: Let's go to Steve in Manhattan. Go Buchanan, go Buchanan,
24:37
Speaker 1: go Buchanan, go Buchanan, go Buchanan, go Buchanan. Hello, Steve
24:40
Speaker 1: in Manhattan.
24:40
Speaker 8: Welcome.
24:42
Speaker 3: You can keep doing that if you want. Listen, Weed
24:45
Speaker 3: Man has got to get a sound team. That's what
24:48
Speaker 3: he needs, a big star now. Ben, distinguished panel, expanding audience,
24:52
Speaker 3: welcome to Yeehaw. Now, if you're a New York fan
24:57
Speaker 3: and you're listening to all kinds of talk radio and
25:00
Speaker 3: sports radio and everything, this is all that I knew.
25:03
Speaker 3: Over the weekend, Sunday I was watching the Giant game, right?
25:07
Speaker 3: And the Titans finally realized how to start moving the
25:10
Speaker 3: ball near the end of the game. And the camera
25:13
Speaker 3: went to Salah. And I looked at Salah. Then they
25:17
Speaker 3: moved the camera up to a different level. I don't
25:20
Speaker 3: know what Bonehead was doing. If he was in the
25:22
Speaker 3: food court or something. But he was sitting there looking
25:24
Speaker 3: down at the game, right? And then... The camera went
25:28
Speaker 3: to John Harbaugh, and I said to myself, let me
25:31
Speaker 3: go get something to eat. The game is over. And
25:33
Speaker 3: when they lost that game, the Titans, did anybody see
25:38
Speaker 3: Brian Bonehead bang that table in the food court? Did
25:41
Speaker 3: you see the chicken wings go flying? I mean, what
25:44
Speaker 3: is he doing? Is he really an offensive coordinator? This
25:48
Speaker 3: is all nonsense. You hear certain guys, oh, they're goons.
25:52
Speaker 3: They can fix quarterbacks. Oh, they could develop quarterbacks. Folks,
25:57
Speaker 3: it's all BS, all right? You know, Woody Allen could
26:01
Speaker 3: have developed Josh Allen and stuff out there in Buffalo.
26:05
Speaker 3: It's BS, just basically trying to sell these guys out.
26:11
Speaker 3: to the fans, because let's face it.
26:13
Speaker 6: Well, they do.
26:13
Speaker 1: They have great marketing. And if you watch these NFL broadcasts,
26:17
Speaker 1: the people that do the play-by-play and the commentary, they
26:20
Speaker 1: pretty much just lick the toes of these assistant coaches,
26:24
Speaker 1: how great they are. I'd love for somebody, Steve, to
26:27
Speaker 1: do a broadcast, which, oh, that guy's a terrible coach.
26:29
Speaker 1: I don't know how this team is able to take
26:31
Speaker 1: the field and how they're able to line up. This
26:34
Speaker 1: guy didn't know what he was doing. I would love
26:36
Speaker 1: for someone... They never do that. Everyone's great. If everyone's great,
26:40
Speaker 1: no one's great.
26:43
Speaker 3: And then you hear... This is the fans of... New
26:47
Speaker 3: York is supposed to be sophisticated. They're saying that James
26:50
Speaker 3: Winston is the best backup quarterback in the NFL. Now,
26:54
Speaker 3: when they brought him in last year, and they brought
26:57
Speaker 3: in Wilson, too, Russell Wilson... i think they've to buy
27:00
Speaker 3: a bone-headed shame is right on the spot bring those
27:03
Speaker 3: two guys in one guy's washed up the other guys
27:05
Speaker 3: not washed in and that if you go the other
27:08
Speaker 3: side of the stripping you're in queens now i mean
27:10
Speaker 3: it's not going to be more but that's what she
27:12
Speaker 3: stated jets law You have this guy by the name
27:15
Speaker 3: of Justin Fields who can't even throw a football. He's
27:18
Speaker 3: an NFL quarterback. And they were praising this guy. They
27:21
Speaker 3: were actually praising him. I said, this guy can't throw
27:23
Speaker 3: a football. What are you talking about? You ran Tebow
27:26
Speaker 3: out of town because he couldn't throw the ball 20 yards.
27:28
Speaker 3: Now this guy can't even throw the ball five yards.
27:31
Speaker 3: And you guys are all over this guy. Listen, folks,
27:33
Speaker 3: it's all hype. Enjoy the game. I feel sorry for
27:36
Speaker 3: people who really know sports and understand sports. Your head
27:40
Speaker 3: has got to be spinning listening to some of these
27:42
Speaker 3: people talk. And I'll tell you one thing. The Jet
27:46
Speaker 3: coach now with Aaron Glenn. Aaron Glenn shouldn't even be
27:50
Speaker 3: coaching Pop Warner or Little League. That's how bad this
27:53
Speaker 3: guy is, folks.
27:55
Speaker 1: All right. Very sporty call from Steven Manhattan. I did
28:00
Speaker 1: want to mention this executive for the Mets. I'm trying
28:03
Speaker 1: to find. There was a quote he gave, which was
28:05
Speaker 1: so ridiculous.
28:05
Speaker 2: Yes.
28:07
Speaker 1: And I had it in my notes. I'm trying to
28:09
Speaker 1: find it here. I got a bunch of stuff in
28:10
Speaker 1: front of me. But he used this gobbledygook to try
28:15
Speaker 1: to explain how he was terrible at his job. The
28:21
Speaker 1: offseason additions, the players they picked, the players they didn't
28:24
Speaker 1: bring in. I don't have the quote in front of me.
28:27
Speaker 1: I'll try to find that. I also saw there's a
28:28
Speaker 1: report overnight. I got Tim McDarby passing this along. There's
28:33
Speaker 1: a story out of the Dominican. At least two people.
28:37
Speaker 1: According to the great Hector Gomez, he's like the baseball
28:40
Speaker 1: insider of Dominican baseball. This guy knows everything that goes
28:43
Speaker 1: on in the Dominican Republic. He says at least two
28:45
Speaker 1: men linked to that gambling, pitch-fixing scandal involving the Cleveland
28:51
Speaker 1: Guardians relief pitcher Emmanuel Classe were arrested last Friday in
28:58
Speaker 1: the Dominican Republic, and they are facing extradition proceedings apparently
29:02
Speaker 1: right now. And to be brought back to the United
29:06
Speaker 1: States to answer questions regarding their connection into the investigation
29:11
Speaker 1: involving the FBI and Major League Baseball into alleged betting fraud.
29:20
Speaker 1: And you think that it was only a couple guys
29:24
Speaker 1: from the Cleveland Guardians? How many other players that may
29:27
Speaker 1: or may not have been involved in that are like, what, whoa?
29:30
Speaker 4: What, whoa?
29:33
Speaker 1: Let's go to Shane. Not just Shane. He's Trucker Shane.
29:38
Speaker 1: And he's ready to go. Hello, Trucker Shane. Welcome.
29:40
Speaker 8: Oh, how you doing, Ben? Good to talk to you
29:43
Speaker 8: guys again.
29:44
Speaker 1: It's been a while. What's going on, Trucker Shane?
29:46
Speaker 8: Well, I want to tell you, I think Jackson Dart
29:49
Speaker 8: is done in New York. Thinking about that.
29:53
Speaker 1: Well, only if McCarthy's good. If not, they'll bring him
29:57
Speaker 1: back and he'll have a shot to play again.
29:59
Speaker 3: Well, I mean, the.
30:01
Speaker 8: Same thing happened to Teddy Bridgewater when he got drafted.
30:04
Speaker 8: He got hurt and then it didn't fizzle out and
30:06
Speaker 8: he was gone out of Minnesota. And I just think
30:09
Speaker 8: Jackson Dart is not going to work out. He's going
30:13
Speaker 8: to get ugly and he's going to get traded before
30:15
Speaker 8: he gets better.
30:17
Speaker 1: Well, they clearly don't think he's going to come back
30:19
Speaker 1: and be that good, or otherwise they wouldn't have traded
30:21
Speaker 1: for McCarthy. So there's something there. There's obviously something going on. Otherwise,
30:25
Speaker 1: that would not have happened.
30:27
Speaker 8: That's right.
30:27
Speaker 1: Where are you at, Trucker Shane? Where are you at
30:29
Speaker 1: right now?
30:30
Speaker 8: I am in Arkansas. I want to tell you I
30:34
Speaker 8: lost my truck down a mountain two weeks ago, and
30:37
Speaker 8: I couldn't call in. I couldn't hear you guys.
30:39
Speaker 1: You lost your truck down a mountain?
30:43
Speaker 8: Yeah, my truck completely shut off going down a mountain. What? Yeah,
30:48
Speaker 8: that's the other thing.
30:50
Speaker 1: I thought that.
30:50
Speaker 8: Was going to be it for me right there, because
30:53
Speaker 8: I was.
30:53
Speaker 1: Going pretty fast. Where were you when this happened?
30:58
Speaker 8: I was in West Virginia, and I had a heavy load,
31:02
Speaker 8: and then I just warned it on my dash. came on,
31:06
Speaker 8: give me about five seconds to turn the truck off.
31:08
Speaker 8: And I was already going down the mountain with a heavy,
31:11
Speaker 8: heavy load. And I was like, how am I going
31:12
Speaker 8: to stop this before I could say anything? The truck
31:14
Speaker 8: shut off. Wow. And, uh, that was going to be it.
31:20
Speaker 1: And so you, obviously you're, you're fine, but your truck,
31:23
Speaker 1: not fine. Gone.
31:24
Speaker 8: No, the truck's, uh, gone. I'm okay. Uh, but yeah,
31:30
Speaker 8: but this is my first night back and you guys
31:32
Speaker 8: are my company out here.
31:33
Speaker 1: And, uh, Well, that's crazy. I'm glad you're okay. Obviously,
31:41
Speaker 1: when that happened, I'm trying to paint the picture for me.
31:44
Speaker 1: So your truck, did it catch on fire when you
31:46
Speaker 1: crashed it? No.
31:51
Speaker 8: Well, not to get into much of a mumbo-jumbo, but
31:56
Speaker 8: some diesel went into the exhaust, and there was a
31:58
Speaker 8: little bit of a fire. Uh, but it wasn't too bad.
32:02
Speaker 8: It just, uh, the kind of truck I had, there's
32:04
Speaker 8: a default. And for the guys that are listening, I
32:07
Speaker 8: had a six 80. They know what that is. And
32:09
Speaker 8: there's a default in the new engines and they don't
32:12
Speaker 8: want to get a check.
32:13
Speaker 3: Yeah.
32:14
Speaker 8: Cause I mean, I wouldn't do the guardrail and, uh,
32:18
Speaker 8: That was it. I'm good now. I don't have the
32:22
Speaker 8: XM set up yet. I've been listening to you on
32:25
Speaker 8: the phone, thankfully, because I don't have it set up yet.
32:28
Speaker 1: You can get the iHeartRadio app. You can listen on
32:31
Speaker 1: the stream if you have cell reception. I know you
32:33
Speaker 1: drive out in the backwoods a lot, so there's not
32:35
Speaker 1: a lot of cell reception, which is a problem.
32:37
Speaker 8: I'm everywhere.
32:37
Speaker 3: I got you.
32:39
Speaker 1: Well, listen, I'm glad you're alive, obviously. That's the most
32:40
Speaker 1: important thing. Has that happened before?
32:44
Speaker 8: No, that's never happened before. It was like, I'm sitting
32:47
Speaker 8: there riding, and I see stop engine, and I said,
32:49
Speaker 8: what's going on? And then kaput. I'm on a steering
32:52
Speaker 8: wheel and everything. And I went from riding to thinking, whoa,
32:55
Speaker 8: this is going to be a one-way trip. That's right.
32:58
Speaker 3: Instantly.
32:59
Speaker 8: So, never happened before. Hopefully it never happens again.
33:01
Speaker 3: All right.
33:02
Speaker 1: Well, glad you're okay. Thank you, Shane. Be safe out there, man.
33:05
Speaker 3: Have a good night.
33:06
Speaker 5: There you go.
33:06
Speaker 1: The great Trucker Shane. How scary. Near-death experience in those trucks, man.
33:12
Speaker 1: And Like I look at those trucks, I'm like, oh,
33:13
Speaker 1: they never, you know, you're fine if you're in a
33:15
Speaker 1: truck when it's so big. But I've been on the road.
33:18
Speaker 1: I've seen some pretty gnarly accidents driving by rubbernecking. You
33:25
Speaker 1: always see those long runoffs on the freeways, too, you know,
33:28
Speaker 1: where you see like the water jugs at the end
33:30
Speaker 1: or the sand jugs. And you're like, I wonder what
33:32
Speaker 1: it'd be like if you actually saw a truck go off.
33:34
Speaker 2: That's crazy.
33:35
Speaker 1: I was running back from Vegas in the middle of
33:37
Speaker 1: the night and I saw Big Rig tipped over with
33:39
Speaker 1: all these Teslas on it and they were all over
33:42
Speaker 1: the road. It looked like an end of the world scene.
33:46
Speaker 1: It was pretty crazy.
33:48
Speaker 2: It's the end of the world as we know it.
33:51
Speaker 1: It looked like the set at Universal Studios when they
33:54
Speaker 1: have the fire and all the things all.
33:56
Speaker 2: Over the place.
33:56
Speaker 1: It was pretty crazy. All right, it is the Ben
