3:16
Speaker 1: we're back at it. The NBA game went to the
3:20
Speaker 1: team from Oklahoma, so we are now one more thunder
3:24
Speaker 1: win away from the Knickerbockers and the Thunder from down
3:29
Speaker 1: Under in the NBA finals. If San Antonio can win
3:33
Speaker 1: on Thursday and then win again on Saturday, and something
3:36
Speaker 1: tells me there'll be a Saturday and then we'll have
3:40
Speaker 1: San Antonio versus the team from New York. So there's that. Also,
3:45
Speaker 1: the Vegas Golden Knights are back in My guy tore
3:48
Speaker 1: her up back in the Stanley Cup Final, as they
3:51
Speaker 1: had swept out the top team in hockey during the
3:53
Speaker 1: regular season, the Colorado Avalanche it eliminated. That is not
3:58
Speaker 1: what we're talking about, though. Those are all fine stories
4:01
Speaker 1: and there's nothing wrong with those stories. Although we are
4:03
Speaker 1: not discussing them. Instead, we are going to turn our
4:06
Speaker 1: attention to the courtroom.
4:08
Speaker 2: Now.
4:08
Speaker 1: We talked earlier about the arrest of the captain of
4:11
Speaker 1: the Green Bay Packers, Josh Jacobs, and this is a
4:14
Speaker 1: different courtroom. This is the biggest courtroom in the land
4:18
Speaker 1: in this United States of American Washington, DC. Big legal
4:22
Speaker 1: news for the NFL. If you did not see it,
4:26
Speaker 1: you might have missed it. The Supreme Court, the almighty,
4:31
Speaker 1: all powerful Supreme Court denied denied an appeal from the
4:37
Speaker 1: NFL to keep the former Dolphins coach current Vikings defensive
4:42
Speaker 1: coordinator Brian Flores discrimination lawsuit against the league from going
4:46
Speaker 1: to trial. Say what now? The NFL had asked the
4:50
Speaker 1: High Court to intervene and instead allow the case to
4:55
Speaker 1: be handled through arbitration. However, the the Supreme Court justices
5:01
Speaker 1: refuse to intervene. They said, ixnay on that we're not
5:07
Speaker 1: doing it now. Justice Brett Kavanaught dissented from the decision. However,
5:14
Speaker 1: it didn't matter. He was the only one to go
5:17
Speaker 1: against the majority ruling to not hear the case. Much
5:22
Speaker 1: too busy there in the Supreme Court to be bothered
5:24
Speaker 1: with trivial matters of the NFL. So that is a
5:27
Speaker 1: good jumping off point. Let us discuss the question. You
5:31
Speaker 1: make the call. I love those commercials. I'm old, I
5:33
Speaker 1: love those old commercials. You make the call who benefits
5:37
Speaker 1: from the Supreme Court's ruling, Brian Flores or the NFL.
5:42
Speaker 1: So my take, I've got Infinity Gauntlet, Willie Wonka, and
5:48
Speaker 1: Bass Pro Shops, and we'll combine all of those random
5:54
Speaker 1: things together and we are going to have a Smergas
5:57
Speaker 1: warg of the Babaganus and then we'll have some gobbagol
6:02
Speaker 1: and that's what we're gonna have. So to kick off here,
6:05
Speaker 1: just keeping it real, Brian Flores did not just win
6:09
Speaker 1: a ruling. He did not just win a ruling here.
6:12
Speaker 1: What he has done this is a massive I cannot
6:14
Speaker 1: stress Like. We talked about this many times over the
6:17
Speaker 1: last couple of years and I said it was no
6:19
Speaker 1: chance Brian Flores is gonna win this. There's no chance.
6:21
Speaker 1: Well now he's got a chance. He can actually win
6:23
Speaker 1: this lawsuit. And what he's going to do is make
6:28
Speaker 1: a lot of big shots at the NFL very very
6:32
Speaker 1: nervous flop, sweat a lot of these lawyers on retainer,
6:37
Speaker 1: finger biting Here's why. Because Brian Flores, defensive corner of
6:41
Speaker 1: the Vikings, has one access to the NFL's internal operating system.
6:46
Speaker 1: That's what the Supreme Court allowed to happen here by
6:49
Speaker 1: not stepping in. It's on like Donkey Kong. This is
6:55
Speaker 1: going to federal Court in Manhattan, not the NFL's kangaroo court.
7:00
Speaker 1: We're talking to the federal court. To use football jargon,
7:04
Speaker 1: the NFL just lost home field advantage. They're a warm
7:08
Speaker 1: weather team. They got to plant a dome that they're
7:11
Speaker 1: used to playing in a dome and all that warm weather.
7:13
Speaker 1: They now have to go to a snow globe game.
7:17
Speaker 1: That's what this is now, keeping the league out of
7:20
Speaker 1: their preferred courtroom, which is I believe Roger Goodell's basement.
7:25
Speaker 1: I think yeah, with a gavel, he pretends to dress
7:29
Speaker 1: up as a judge and he's got the wig, the
7:31
Speaker 1: whole thing, and then he's okay, I'm gonna decide this.
7:34
Speaker 1: So this is a big deal. The NFL wanted desperately
7:37
Speaker 1: arbitration because that's where they can keep everything hush hush
7:41
Speaker 1: and sweep it under the rug and all that. They
7:43
Speaker 1: tried to run the old hide the documents play which
7:47
Speaker 1: is a version of the naked bootleg. They tried to
7:49
Speaker 1: hide the documents, and the Supreme Court stuffed that on
7:51
Speaker 1: a goal line stand and said no, no, no. So
7:55
Speaker 1: the Supreme Court, where they're really saying you, let me
7:57
Speaker 1: break it down for those of you a little slow.
7:59
Speaker 1: So the Supreme Court, as I understand it, says, listen,
8:02
Speaker 1: that was a good try. That's a good try by
8:05
Speaker 1: the NFL. But you don't get to grade your own homework,
8:09
Speaker 1: not this time. You must sugaring us. You don't get
8:12
Speaker 1: to do it. You don't get to run the courtroom
8:16
Speaker 1: just because you run the world of sport in America anyway.
8:21
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna use some Ben logic here, now, the
8:24
Speaker 1: Ben logic on this. When the NFL fights this hard,
8:28
Speaker 1: and they really have been battling to avoid the daylight,
8:33
Speaker 1: it's because the emails that they know are there are
8:38
Speaker 1: radio active, radio active. Think cher noble, think cher noble,
8:46
Speaker 1: bunch of old rich guys sending email. Now, Brian Flores
8:50
Speaker 1: just unlocked the Infinity Gauntlet. Congratulations, it's discovery with a
8:56
Speaker 1: capital D. Discovery, and you're talking about tech messages, which
9:01
Speaker 1: I don't think is going to be that great because
9:02
Speaker 1: these are old people and they don't text as much
9:04
Speaker 1: as young people. The text messages, emails, smoke signals, all that,
9:10
Speaker 1: all that and a bag of chips, whatever they got,
9:14
Speaker 1: whatever they got during discovery. Go out there with a
9:18
Speaker 1: reconnaissance mission and get everything. So this is the NFL's
9:23
Speaker 1: worst nightmare. I'm telling you. It's gonna be a public trial.
9:30
Speaker 1: And it's like all your dirty laundry, you kinky little
9:33
Speaker 1: you know what, all your dirty laundry, all those funny
9:36
Speaker 1: outfits you wear in the bedroom, they're all out in
9:38
Speaker 1: the clothes line. And the NFL is going to see
9:40
Speaker 1: and they have all their stuff seen by the world
9:42
Speaker 1: here and the settlement and the bran floor has come out,
9:47
Speaker 1: and not about the settlement and all that. I said,
9:49
Speaker 1: we'll see Kaepernick said the same stuff. He took a check.
9:53
Speaker 1: So we'll see if Brian Flores is willing to push
9:56
Speaker 1: this to the end. The case now moves as we
9:58
Speaker 1: understand the court in mal Manhattan Federal Court. Brian Flores
10:02
Speaker 1: will get his discovery. As we said, the NFL will
10:05
Speaker 1: get a colonoscopy. So I hope they enjoy that all
10:08
Speaker 1: right now. Furthermore, so give me the wide angle lens,
10:12
Speaker 1: the wide angle, and because the tentacles on this story
10:16
Speaker 1: don't just stop at Brian Flores. And he's not the
10:18
Speaker 1: only one involved in that lawsuit claiming some violations of
10:21
Speaker 1: the Rooney rule and this and that and the NFL
10:24
Speaker 1: is a bunch of racists and all that. So all right,
10:26
Speaker 1: the question is it true? Is it true that John Gruden? Yes,
10:35
Speaker 1: that John Gruden, the former Raiders head coach who just
10:39
Speaker 1: happens to be on a TV in the studio right now,
10:41
Speaker 1: that that John Gruden is sitting pretty because of the
10:47
Speaker 1: Supreme Court punting on the Brian Floores case. So I'm
10:53
Speaker 1: nodding my head. Yes, I'm not in my head Yess.
10:56
Speaker 1: The Supreme Court didn't rule against the NFL. They just
11:00
Speaker 1: fuse to save the NFL and the trickle down economics
11:04
Speaker 1: certainly help John Gruden. They do by declining to hear
11:10
Speaker 1: the appeal and said, what, We're just not going to
11:13
Speaker 1: be bothered with this. We have to do like real
11:15
Speaker 1: stuff that the Supreme Court is supposed to do. Well, okay,
11:19
Speaker 1: So Brian Floores in this high court they essentially told
11:21
Speaker 1: the NFL, hey handle handle your own mess and make
11:25
Speaker 1: sure to do it in public, go down to the
11:26
Speaker 1: public square and do it in public. And so if
11:29
Speaker 1: you're John Gruden's lawyers and John Gruden himself, you are
11:34
Speaker 1: grinning from ear to ear. You have a cheshire cat
11:37
Speaker 1: smile from ear to ear. You're so excited. The NFL
11:40
Speaker 1: didn't just lose. They have gotten pantsed by the Supreme
11:45
Speaker 1: Court and they were going commando. So everyone's seeing everything here.
11:50
Speaker 1: Arbitration is the NFL's comfort food. They love arbitration, can
11:55
Speaker 1: get enough of it. The Supreme Court just said, hey,
11:57
Speaker 1: you're fasting, I'm taking the menu away. Well that's not nice.
12:01
Speaker 1: If the league truly had nothing to hide, arbitration would
12:05
Speaker 1: not be their emotional support animal. The NFL's emotional support
12:08
Speaker 1: animal's always been arbitration. Everything's baked into arbitration. Every contract,
12:12
Speaker 1: the boiler plate contract in the NFL, includes the legal
12:16
Speaker 1: ease at the end saying any dispute, if you're at loggerheads,
12:21
Speaker 1: goes to arbitration. And now that is starting to ter
12:24
Speaker 1: my entire life. This has been the way that business
12:27
Speaker 1: was done. If you had a beef with the NFL,
12:30
Speaker 1: this is how it operated. And so now we're wait
12:34
Speaker 1: a minute, so Brian Floor is ruling. It does. Obviously,
12:37
Speaker 1: it doesn't win the Brian Flores case, it doesn't win
12:40
Speaker 1: the John Cruden case. Those will still have to go
12:42
Speaker 1: through the actual court room and all that stuff. However,
12:45
Speaker 1: it absolutely strengthens and gives a much better foundation. The
12:50
Speaker 1: pillars are stronger. The terrain that you're fighting on. You're
12:55
Speaker 1: talking about open court, real discovery, no secret unker of arbitration.
13:02
Speaker 1: You know, none of that discovery is the boogeyman. And
13:06
Speaker 1: the NFL they're hearing some footsteps. They're hearing some footsteps
13:10
Speaker 1: of the boogeyman. John Green's lawyers. They just got from
13:14
Speaker 1: the Willy Wonka chocolate factory their own golden tickets, So congratulations,
13:18
Speaker 1: you got a gold and tech you gotta gold and
13:20
Speaker 1: take head. So they'll be able to snoop around the
13:23
Speaker 1: book of secrets from the NFL and the and the
13:26
Speaker 1: NFL is think of it like this, the analogy. I mean,
13:29
Speaker 1: the NFL is downwind from a toxic vapor cloud and
13:35
Speaker 1: John Gruden is chuckling and holding a fan pointed right
13:41
Speaker 1: at the NFL. It's another example, it's another example of
13:45
Speaker 1: the NFL being brilliant at football and very messy, very
13:50
Speaker 1: clumsy at everything else. I will garn effen to you.
13:54
Speaker 1: They they did not imagine a world with all the
13:57
Speaker 1: money they've paid to politicians and judges and things. They
14:01
Speaker 1: did not imagine that they would not be able to
14:03
Speaker 1: get arbitration when they wanted arbitration. However, it appears here
14:06
Speaker 1: we are all right. Last thing to Florida we go
14:09
Speaker 1: where there's an NFL quarterback complaining, That would be Jacksonville's
14:13
Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence. Jacksonville hat a great regular season and then
14:17
Speaker 1: he sucked at a time he cannot suck in the
14:19
Speaker 1: playoffs against Buffalo anyway, Trevor Lawrence says he is tired
14:23
Speaker 1: of getting asked one specific question. You want to take
14:27
Speaker 1: a guess what that question is. You got it, You
14:30
Speaker 1: see it, you didn't see it, Okay, So Trevor Lawrence
14:32
Speaker 1: says he's annoyed that he keeps getting asked if he
14:35
Speaker 1: likes playing in Jacksonville. Lawrence said the answer is yes,
14:41
Speaker 1: and he gets asked that question more than any other question.
14:46
Speaker 1: Lawrence has been now with the Jags. He's been just
14:50
Speaker 1: a Jag for five seasons, and he's got a monster
14:55
Speaker 1: contract two hundred and seventy five million question. What do
15:00
Speaker 1: you think the national football media is obsessed with asking
15:06
Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence if he's happy in Jacksonville. So I've established
15:13
Speaker 1: I know some of these people, some of these weasels
15:16
Speaker 1: in the media. Some of them are my friends. Some
15:19
Speaker 1: of them don't know who I am. Some of them
15:21
Speaker 1: I do not like sam I am. However, it's because
15:25
Speaker 1: these guys, most of them live in New York or
15:27
Speaker 1: LA and all that stuff. They're elites, media elites, and
15:31
Speaker 1: they just assume that true happiness only exists when you're
15:36
Speaker 1: within twelve miles of an Irwan, you know, that expensive
15:39
Speaker 1: bougie market. If you gotta be within about twelve miles
15:42
Speaker 1: and then you're good. Then you're in good shape. And
15:45
Speaker 1: the media, the football media, they act like Jacksonville is
15:49
Speaker 1: a FEMA camp. I'm telling you, like they chase the
15:53
Speaker 1: forty seventh media market in the United States, market number
15:57
Speaker 1: forty seven. And any of these people assume that Trevor
16:01
Speaker 1: Lawrence is living in a treehouse behind a bass Pro
16:04
Speaker 1: shops and that that's what he's doing. Well, No, he's
16:09
Speaker 1: actually got a big mansion and all that, and so
16:12
Speaker 1: he's in good shape. It's actually smaller Jacksonville is smaller
16:16
Speaker 1: in terms of media market than Kalamazoo, Michigan, Norfolk, Virginia
16:22
Speaker 1: in Albutquerque, New Mexico, and the NFL. They have three
16:27
Speaker 1: markets that are technically smaller based on media and television
16:31
Speaker 1: audience than Jacksonville. That would be New Orleans, Buffalo, and
16:36
Speaker 1: the smallest of them all in Green Bay. And I'm
16:41
Speaker 1: pretty sure nobody's going around asking these other quarterbacks. Well,
16:44
Speaker 1: nobody knows who's the quarterback for the Saints as who's that?
16:48
Speaker 1: We know who mister Love is in Green Bay, and
16:51
Speaker 1: the quarterback in Buffalo mister MVP guy Josh Allen, And
16:55
Speaker 1: Josh Allen just waxes loquacious all the time about how
16:57
Speaker 1: much he loves Buffalo and all that Jordan Love. Nobody
17:00
Speaker 1: really asks him that because the Packers are a legacy
17:04
Speaker 1: franchise and whatnot. So people that live in New York
17:09
Speaker 1: they think choosing Jacksonville is like choosing a tiny house
17:14
Speaker 1: over a mansion. And yeah, so yeah, it's charming. It's
17:18
Speaker 1: gotta be temporary. You're just passing through. You're just passing through. However,
17:23
Speaker 1: like what is Treylor Lawrence supposed to say? It's always
17:26
Speaker 1: one of those what's he supposed to say? Situation like, Yeah, actually,
17:28
Speaker 1: I'd rather live in the Tenderloin District than here. Come on. Now,
17:33
Speaker 1: he's twenty six, he's married, he's low maintenance, and I
17:38
Speaker 1: believe he's from a relatively small town outside Atlanta, out
17:42
Speaker 1: in kind of the boonies in Cartersville, Georgia. I'm not
17:47
Speaker 1: saying it's a one horse town. I don't think they
17:49
Speaker 1: have ten horses. You feel me on that. So to him,
17:52
Speaker 1: I would think if you grew up in a relatively
17:54
Speaker 1: small town in Georgia and you played for Clemson in
17:58
Speaker 1: South Carolina, then Jacksonville's got to be like Times Square
18:03
Speaker 1: in Manhattan or something like that, midtown Manhattan. It's a
18:07
Speaker 1: beach town. There's no state income tax, and you're not
18:11
Speaker 1: exactly out there chasing bottle service if you're Trevor Lawrence
18:15
Speaker 1: at this point in your life. However, if if he
18:18
Speaker 1: ever admitted, if Trevor Lawrence ever admitted that he hated
18:21
Speaker 1: it in Jacksonville, then the media social media would spontaneously
18:28
Speaker 1: combust burn baby burn from the hot take validation. It
18:33
Speaker 1: is the Ben Mahler Show. If you'd like to be
18:35
Speaker 1: part eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox. We've got

Speaker 1: X at Ben Mahlor. That's at Ben Malae. So a
18:50
Speaker 1: media quagmire, media quagmire. What happens when a number two
18:56
Speaker 1: is really the number one? What do you do when
18:58
Speaker 1: the number two is really the number one? That's right,
19:03
Speaker 1: We'll get to that and we will do it.

19:42
Speaker 1: be bad.
19:43
Speaker 4: I have no idea why Fox Sports Radio picked this up,

27:31
Speaker 1: Because of you, James. Congratulations. By the way of the
27:33
Speaker 1: Detroit Tigers who have now lost. This is amazing. Your
27:37
Speaker 1: Angels came back and won last night. The Detroit Tigers
27:40
Speaker 1: have now lost seventeen of their last twenty professional baseball games.
27:44
Speaker 1: They are twenty one and thirty four, which sounds bad.
27:47
Speaker 1: Sounds bad right? Uh? Yeah, They're now tied with the
27:49
Speaker 1: Angels for the worst record in the American League and
27:53
Speaker 1: the second worst record in baseball, only ahead of the Rockies.
27:58
Speaker 1: So the Detroit tie. Weren't they in the you know
28:02
Speaker 1: they were? They on the Alcs lesson, but they played
28:05
Speaker 1: the Mariners. I remember the playoffs and all that stuff.
28:06
Speaker 1: They were right there and then they I guess they lost.
28:09
Speaker 1: But they then Toronto, they played Detroit, played the Seattle
28:13
Speaker 1: Manners and West. But they're the worst team in the
28:15
Speaker 1: American League. Now that's crazy. The Red Sox are giving
28:20
Speaker 1: them a run for the money. Hello Austin, what's going on?
28:22
Speaker 1: Austin's in Maine? Hello Austin, Hey, how's it going?
28:26
Speaker 8: So basically baseball sucks and it's all because of the
28:30
Speaker 8: Red Sox. You bring in Chad Tracy and you become worse.
28:35
Speaker 8: Like when we find Alex score, Aren't we supposed to
28:38
Speaker 8: be a better baseball team. Wasn't that supposed to be
28:40
Speaker 8: management saying we know better than Alex and he sucks
28:44
Speaker 8: and we know we gave him.
28:45
Speaker 6: A good roster.
28:46
Speaker 8: This is pathetic. Everybody in New England should be embarrassed
28:49
Speaker 8: because Greg Reslom sucked.
28:55
Speaker 1: Suck last night. Come on, Okay, are you feel better now, Austin? Yeah,
29:02
Speaker 1: I'm I'm pulling for Chad Tracy. I was buddies with
29:05
Speaker 1: his dad, who used to manage the Dodgers, so I
29:07
Speaker 1: hope things work out. They suck though they are boring.
29:10
Speaker 1: They're not only bad, they're boring. You can be bad,
29:13
Speaker 1: but at least be interesting. The Red Sex are bad
29:15
Speaker 1: and they're boring, like all those young guys they were
29:17
Speaker 1: betting on either their mediocre or they're bad, the young
29:22
Speaker 1: core of the Red Sox. I almost fell asleep a
29:24
Speaker 1: couple times during that game. Did you he was that bad? Yeah? Yeah,
29:29
Speaker 1: but the cold kept me awake. Oh okay, yeah, I
29:32
Speaker 1: thought we finway. You just look at the sugger and
29:35
Speaker 1: the skyline in Boston what I was kind.
29:38
Speaker 5: Of bummed about, which I don't. I mean, maybe this
29:41
Speaker 5: has been gone for a long time, but I was
29:43
Speaker 5: looking around. I realized the like the big John Hancock
29:46
Speaker 5: sign is not there.
29:48
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know when they got rid of they
29:49
Speaker 1: had that news sign they had out in the outfield,
29:51
Speaker 1: you know, in the distance. What was that for? It
29:53
Speaker 1: was like a workout company or something like that.
29:55
Speaker 5: Yeah, it was not something as cool as as John Hancock.
29:58
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know. I don't know what happened that.
30:00
Speaker 1: They must not have paid their bill or something like that.

30:36
Speaker 9: years ago they they were transforming the stadium and the sponsorship.
30:42
Speaker 9: They actually took down the sat Go sign, so that
30:45
Speaker 9: guy there was a big protest and they got rid
30:47
Speaker 9: of that.
30:47
Speaker 1: He asked about the John Hancock, So what happened, John Cocker?
30:51
Speaker 9: Exactly? They put up Planet Fitness logo instead.
30:54
Speaker 6: That is correct.
30:56
Speaker 9: The guy from Maine has a good point.
30:58
Speaker 6: He's absolutely right.
31:00
Speaker 9: Should have fired John Henry and Dorocle.
31:03
Speaker 1: You can't fire John Henry. He owns the team. How
31:05
Speaker 1: do you fire John Henry?
31:07
Speaker 9: He should fire himself anyway, he's worse than Jerry Jones.
31:11
Speaker 9: But anyways, the guy Docle is a doracle and lorena
31:17
Speaker 9: magnum p I means magnum private investigator. He's a.
31:22

32:19
Speaker 1: NFL Analyst Award went to Greg Olsen, the number two

32:50
Speaker 1: paid guys, got the big contract and all that, And
32:52
Speaker 1: to me, that's not wrong. People love Tom Brady because
32:56
Speaker 1: he was great for the Patriots. He's not a very
32:57
Speaker 1: good broadcaster. He's just not like he's'd be doing like
33:00
Speaker 1: modeling or something like that. He's not not particularly good.
33:05
Speaker 1: You know, it's good good for him. He got the

Speaker 1: gig and he's making a lot of money, and they're
33:08
Speaker 1: making money on him and all that. In terms of
33:10
Speaker 1: just the actual x's and o's and the ABC's and
