  Speaker 2: Welcome in the beginning of another hour of the Ben
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: Malor Show. We are in the air of reware, in
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: cahoots as we continue continue to take that blue pill,
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: and you know what that means from the matrix.
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: Coast to coast, border, the border and beyond on.
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: The mast and uncharacteristically powerful microphones of FSR emmating lies

• 1:47
  Speaker 2: I can, but only only if Bam Bam and Mikey
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: the insomniac in Tampa, and even Cashless Clay the Saints
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: fan agree, and they all apparently have agreed.
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: So listen.

• 2:16
  Speaker 2: get support, get options, and get to work. So I
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: am questioning my editorial ability here. I was talking to
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: some people in the hallway and I was like, you know,
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: I don't think that NBA trade is that big a trade.
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: I don't.
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: I mean, other people apparently in the building do. I
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: really wasn't even gonna mention it because it's just a
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: couple of bit players, really, not a headliner, not a star.
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: And I'm like, well, apparently it's a lead story. Maybe
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: I should break it down. I'm not gonna do it.
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: I'm a rebel. I am not breaking down to trade
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: three people care about.
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: I'm not gonna do it.
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: So our lead this hour is from Seattle. That's right,
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: the Pacific Northwest. Interesting place. You can go there and
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: check out Bigfoot and all the other sasquatches wandering around there.
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: You can see the kraken, the whole thing.
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: So we had a roster shuff, roster shuffle in the
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: Pacific Northwest. Did you hear did you hear the new No? No,
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: this is not about the guy facing lifetime in prison.
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: No, no, no, no no. So apparently the.
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: Seattle football team has either come to their senses or
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: they haven't, but they've just decided to go to another direction.
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: For now, we have learned.
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: The Seahawks have signed a player described as a two
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: time Pro bowler, of course for.
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: Those who don't know the Pro Bowls where you play
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: tic tac toe and peach volleyball.
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: Yes, Pro Bowl defensive back in the past, Trevon Diggs.
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: Can you digs at.
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: You get say one year contract? Digs is just twenty seven,
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: just twenty seven. He worked out for Seattle this week.
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: You might remember him from his salad days a couple
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: of years back in Dallas, and now he has been
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: added to the secondary in the Pacific Northwest. That is
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: a good jumping off point. Let us discuss the question
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: the Seattle Seahawks have added Trevon Digs to the defensive backfield.
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: Is the glass half full or is the glass half
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: empty on the addition of Diggs to the secondary.
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: So I've got kissing booth, shrink flation.
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: And AutoZone, and we'll combine all of these things together
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: and we're gonna be Benny Bright and Breezy. Benny Bright
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: and Breezy. That's my new name. Don't forget it, Benny
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: Bright and Breezy.
• 4:48
  Speaker 4: So number one one one one one, one one one one,
• 4:53
  Speaker 4: I said, one, all right, Listen, Seattle did not sign
• 4:58
  Speaker 4: Trevon Diggs.
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: They signed the memory of Dramon Dix. Okay, I know
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: this is tough for the low information fan. I understand that.
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: And yes, I did get a few emails from our
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: friends that listen on KJR and Seattle in that area
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: who are.
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: Like, oh, yeah, how are you gonna rip this guy?
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: And like, it's not that I do this intentionally. I
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: don't you have this reputation. Oh you're taking shots.
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: Ato Seattle and all that because of the ridiculous break
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: the Seahawks got from the NFL where they gave them
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: two points during a TV timeout, and how that was
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: such a crime that you're still better and while that
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: was a crime, you are correct.
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: I'm not.
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: I'm not going into every one of these moves. If
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: the SEATTLECX made a good move, I would say they
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: made a good move. I would absolutely I would do that.
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: This is not that time and the low information fan.
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: Which keeps me in business.
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: The twelves are celebrating like the lesion of Boom crawled
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: out from a time machine portal and they're back waving
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: around their success of years gone by and the resume
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: of Trevon Diggs, who did have a magical ride in
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: twenty eleven. It was a magic carpet. Right eleven interceptions
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: for the Cowboys. I think that was twenty twenty one.
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: I believe that was wonderful, great bravo. But yeah, you
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: know what that means. Yeah, he tore his left acl
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: he messed up his right knee and had how many
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: interceptions did he have last year?
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: How many past breakups did he have last year? Oh?
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: That's right, as many as crying Craig and JJ in
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: Renton and all the crew there combine Nos Tradinis as well,
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: had zero interceptions, zero pass breakups last season. But wait,
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: there's more. Also has attitude issues got into it with
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: the Dallas Cowboys over where to rehab and how to
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: re have. So I'm trying to tell you if Diggs
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: was any more washed up, he would be wearing a
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: shirt that had tied on it, meaning a sponsorship deal.
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: So what are the Seahawks doing here? Well, I'll tell
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: you what they're doing. They're running a kissing booth and
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: they're kissing frogs.
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: Kiss, kiss, kiss. That's what their secondary is. Literally leaking water.
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: And some of you people don't believe me.
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: They're leaking water and they're desperately hoping that one of
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: these frogs turns into Prince Charming because they know they're
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: up against that. The Rams really can ram it all
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: day and ram all night. And there was a fluke
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: what happened last year And this move proves it. This
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: move proves it. The Seahawks know they were a fluke team.
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: You're bringing in a guy that's got a bad he's
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: got a left acl that's torn up, a right knee,
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: that's messed up, bad attitude, that's who you're bringing in.
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: The argument.
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: Well, it's a one year lease. It's a one year lease,
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: and it's a twenty twenty one model with one.
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: Hundred and fifty thousand miles on it.
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: And the guy if he was that good again, training
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: caster going on, everyone's played at least one exhibition game
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: and he still hadn't signed a contract. Why would that
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: be If this guy missed all everything, why would he
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: still be available here in getting late in August, the
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: season beginning in less than three weeks.
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: Why would that be the case? Exactly?
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: You know the answer to that, because the check engine
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: light is blinking on the dashboard.
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: And that's it.
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: You don't rebuild the secondary with wishbones and prayer breads,
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: and that's what this is.
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: Now. I'm not going to be a total negative downer guy.
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna put on my Benny bright Side hat for
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: you because I will give the Seattle Seahawks credit.
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: I'm not going to be a complete douche canoe.
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: The Seattle Seahawks do deserve some credit because I did
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: look and Trayvon Diggs, last I checked, is not facing
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: life in prison. Like the other guy the Seahawks were
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: attempting to sign for the last ten days or so.
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: So baby steps, that is a step in the right direction.
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: That this guy's Trayvon Diggs is not facing a lifetime
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: living conditions there in Florida. All right, may mom, page
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: two to the gripes department. We go to the gripes department.
• 9:18
  Speaker 5: We go.
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: We're former Eagles director of Pro Player Personnel and a
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: fringe NFL player, Lewis.
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: Riddick blasting, blasting what he.
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: Believes is the continuing softening of NFL preparation. He argued
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: recently that the players, the fans, and the media are
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: increasingly complaining and belly aching about joint practices and preseason
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: games and.
• 9:46
  Speaker 4: Oh the midikid, the outa, it's two physic call up
• 9:51
  Speaker 4: by a physic coach.
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: They bitch about everything.
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: Riddick even going as far as to sarcastically point out
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: that perhaps the NFL should just abolish the regular season
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: it's just too hard, and simply select playoff teams.
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: Based on the previous year. Then no one will get hurt.
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: His rant, of.
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: Course, echoing what Tom Brady said. We agreed very rarely
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: with Tom Brady. Brady recently also criticized the players who
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: said they didn't want to play in the exhibition games. Brady,
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: who is the GM by proxy of the Raiders and
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: did such a great job. He built the worst team
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: in football. That's Tom Brady that did that. I didn't
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: do that. Tom Brady did that. And Brady pointed out
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: that their job is to play and complaining that too
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: many people are looking for an easier way out. All right, questioning,
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: if you are holding holding up an Olympic scorecard, what
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: are you giving the former Eagles Director of Pro Personnel
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: Lewis Riddick on his rant about lazy NFL players. So
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: Riddick's rant on the Mallor report card gets a nine
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: point eight bravo. Nine point eight on the Malled report card.
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: Good job by you. He stuck the landing perfect rotation,
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: missing only some names.
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: He didn't name enough people. I want names. I need
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: my names. That's what I need. Now.
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: This chapter of NFL history has been presented by jet
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: puff marshmallows for the players who don't want football. They
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: want to roast marshmallows over and open fire.
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: That's what they want.
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: The NFL has become the world's most lucrative no show
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: job for many for the out of an abundance of
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: caution crowd which drives me bananas. I do have PTSD
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: from the pandemic. Back in the day, when I got
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: that shoved down my throat, we couldn't do anything.
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: But it's out of an abundance of cushion. Well, that's stupid,
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: but it's out of an abundance of cushion. It's still stupid, yeah,
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: but it's out of it. But okay, And of course
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: those people have proven completely wrong.
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: But think about like no hitting, fewer practices, starters sitting
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: out preseason games.
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: That's been going on for a long time.
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: And how do you learn the speed of the NFL
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: game and get yourself ready without tackling?
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: Without tackling?
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: Right, And if you're so scared of practice and putting
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: the work in, we have something for you.
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: It's called pickleball.
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: You can go play it and knock yourself out, right,
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: I have a great time.
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: Why not?
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: Now, at some point, you are protecting the product, and
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: you're protecting it so much you're eliminating the quality control.
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: We've had this problem a lot in recent years where
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: we all get excited. We all get horny for the
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: start of the football season in September, and then the
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: first four weeks of the season are absolute dog food
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: because the players are trying to figure things out because
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: they didn't do anything and they were supposed to be
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: doing stuff during training camp.
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: And the media elites, the.
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: Jocksniffers who cover the NFL, the fine boys, they cheer
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: every single reduction like they've negotiated a four day work
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: week for a crab fisherman out.
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: In the bering Sea.
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: Way to go and so congratulations again, a tip of
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: the headphones. We're tipping the headphones here. You have discovered
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: something called shrink flation. Where in professional football, believe or not,
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: they have shrink flation. The ticket prices are the same,
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: the television deals are the same, the product is worse.
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: You're getting less good football for the same price, and
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: that's what you want.
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: But it's out of an abundance of caution. The players
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: might get hurt. Oh my god. And you keep going
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: down this.
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: Road and eventually there will be no practice, no practice.
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: Everything will be done on zoom. You won't even have
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: to go to the team facility. You won't hit anyone,
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: and they will eventually just plug the rosters into a
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: Madden game. They'll run a simulation and hand out the
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: Lombardi Trophy to whoever has the highest algorithmic win probability
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: based on the nerds who graduated from Ivy League schools
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: the last seven years, but not eight, only the last
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: seven years.
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: Very important, all right.
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: Final point to the boob tube. We go television. That's right,
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: big TV guy, love my TV. So the people at Nielsen,
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: which are in charge of the ratings for television and
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: also what I do well, Nielsen is changing its TV
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: rating methodology yet again, rolling out They calling it.
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: An enhanced system.
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: That's a big corporate jargon for measuring cove viewing in time,
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: just in time for the football season coming up next month. Now,
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: as you might imagine, the system is designed to better
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: count to multiple people, multiple people watching in the same
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: program so together in one room. Now, how on God's
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: green Earth are you going to be able to do that?
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: How do you know?
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: How do you know their people? They even if you're
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: in the room. I'm sure this has happened to you.
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: If you've got a lot of kids or just people
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: you're living with, so you're watching TV everyone's in the
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: same room, and you've got the three kids are on
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: their phone, and then the wife's she's doing something off
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: to the side.
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: I don't know if she's doing. And then you're watching
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: the game.
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: But under this, I would assume that everyone gets credited
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: for watching the game, but they're not watching the game.
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: They're not paying attention. That's not going on at all anyway.
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: They're claiming like this and this is going to count
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: everyone that's in a room, and they believe this is
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: the better measurement.
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: Of course, they believe. They're gonna say it's worse.
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: And so this move comes roughly a year after the
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: NFL publicly accused Nielsen of systematically undercounting millions of NFL viewers.
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: They think their audience is millions of times bigger than
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: they are getting credit for the NFL, and so they
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: made that accusation and they said football frequently involves group viewing.
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: Now the NFL, of course they're trying to have it
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: both ways because they complained, they bitched, and the people
• 16:22
  Speaker 2: who do the ratings changed it, and now the NFL
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: is also complaining. They're like, well, you know, it's like
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: they don't know for sure. That this is going to work.
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: This is Nielsen's fourth major change to the way they
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: do ratings in six years, and every change has been done,
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: as I understand it, for sports, because that's the only
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: thing people watch live.
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: You don't watch other stuff live.
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: So the question sports TV ratings are being adjusted yet again,
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: led by the NFL. How do you interpret how do
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: you interpret what's happening with his latest switcheroo?
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: That is going on? All right, so what the NFL wants?
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: The NFL gets there there.
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: Again being a little coy here just in case it
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: doesn't work out the way they thought it was gonna
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: work out. But the NFL would like a fresh set
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: of calculators from Nielsen. And I look at this from
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: the outside, I'm like, this is Enron level accounting for
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: television ratings. If the numbers aren't growing fast enough, if
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: the rating is not fat enough, no problem, Just change
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: how you count the numbers to get the number that
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: you want, easy, peasy, lemon squeezy. And somewhere across the
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: pearly gates, possibly over on the hot part, Bernie Madeoff
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: is smiling with his devil horns, whispering, why didn't I.
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: Think of co viewing. That's a great idea.
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: So instead of actually getting millions of new people to
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: watch football, you just sprinkle on a little mallor math
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: and you put that on the spreadsheet. Sprint go, sprint go,
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: sprinkle on the on the right there on the spreadsheet,
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: and pressed bracat that bra instant growth. Viewership can be
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: totally stagnant or even going down. But the beauty of
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: the ratings industrial complex and professional sports is that everyone
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: shares the same incentive to go down to the AutoZone
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: and get a portable air pump and inflate the scoreboard.
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: The NFL, with the ratings hire, gets to be very braggadocious.
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: They send out news releases about how they have record
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: audiences and everyone gets all excited for them. The network
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: TV people get all excited because they can charge advertisers more.
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: Money, so they make more money.
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: The advertisers can say, hey, we reach more people, we
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: had more eyeballs than ever, so they're smiling. Nielsen gets
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: to unveil another improved ratings thing, and then they can say,
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: well we'll change it again and a couple you have
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: pass more money. Everybody makes more money. Everybody celebrates and
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: somewhere in all Nielsen rating book is screaming, these numbers
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: don't compare. I don't understand, it makes no sense. It
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: is the Ben Mallard Show. If you're somewhat normal, we'd
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: love to hear from you. We've had quite the run
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: in the wackadoodle department. However, we love our wackadoodles. As
• 19:20

  Speaker 1: Could you really do that? Would you even want to

  Speaker 2: Ferg Dog says, I think the Nielsen rating is complete hogwash,

  Speaker 1: Now what else?
• 23:38

  Speaker 2: I don't think KLAC reaches Madison, Wisconsin. Kathy, So, I
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: think you're listening on the iHeartRadio app. King Roy writes,
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: since is the NFL is getting too soft? We all
• 24:23
  Speaker 2: know within the next twenty five years they will transition
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: to flag football.
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: Boy, they want to. They want that.
• 24:29
  Speaker 2: They are going to promote the hell you are going
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: to have flag football shove down your throat.
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: It's coming up in the Olympics, and they need that
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: to work because that's what they want.
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: They want a flag football. They're going to start as
• 24:37
  Speaker 2: a flag football thing, and they want that to grow
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: and be big and huge and all that. And King
• 24:43
  Speaker 2: Roy says, I missed the days when NFL teams had
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: fifty practices during the preseason, and half of those were
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: two a days, barely.
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: Anyone got hurt.
• 24:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well, it's an old line. When I was a kid,
• 24:57
  Speaker 2: I've told the story. We had the great Jackie Slater,
• 24:59
  Speaker 2: who's un four actually been sick and not doing that great,
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: I guess from when I heard. But I used to
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: go out to RAMS practice when I was a kid.
• 25:06
  Speaker 2: My mom back in the day, she just dropped me
• 25:09
  Speaker 2: off and i'd, you know, little fat Benny run around
• 25:11
  Speaker 2: RAMS practice, and they did practice twice a day, and
• 25:15
  Speaker 2: there were guys that got hurt. But the saying, and
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: it's true, you had to sing for your supper. You
• 25:21
  Speaker 2: didn't get paid if you didn't play. The contracts were
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: not fully guaranteed, and you know said they're not really
• 25:27
  Speaker 2: fully guaranteed now, But the player's made a lot more
• 25:28
  Speaker 2: money now and there's a lot of more of it guaranteed,
• 25:31
  Speaker 2: which is better. However, you're more pampered now. These guys
• 25:35
  Speaker 2: would be practicing at high school fields. You imagine if
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: you took I just pick any team, you know, it
• 25:42
  Speaker 2: took the Chicago Bears and said we're going to go
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: to Southwest High School in Chicago.
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: And we're going to practice.
• 25:49
  Speaker 2: What one of my favorite stories, fred Dreyer, we had
• 25:53
  Speaker 2: fred On and played in the NFL back in the
• 25:55
  Speaker 2: seventies and the eighties. And Fred told stories when he
• 25:59
  Speaker 2: was with the Rams that they practiced at a high school.
• 26:03
  Speaker 2: I think it was in Anaheim, I forget. It was
• 26:05
  Speaker 2: in southern California. And before practice, before the players could practice,
• 26:10
  Speaker 2: they had to walk across the field like they were
• 26:13
  Speaker 2: a search party looking for pieces.
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: Of evidence from a murder.
• 26:18
  Speaker 2: And Fred said they had to walk there because they
• 26:20
  Speaker 2: had to replace divots and pick up cigarettes and other
• 26:22
  Speaker 2: trash on the field.
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: That was an NFL football team.
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: Again, imagine, hey, Mahomes and Kelsey, can you go out
• 26:29
  Speaker 2: there and pick up some divots and some cigarette buds
• 26:31
  Speaker 2: out at the thirty five yard line because we need
• 26:35
  Speaker 2: to practice.
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: No way, that would never happen.
• 26:40
  Speaker 2: Yes, all right, well let's not again, says she's attempting
• 26:45
  Speaker 2: to be at the She's going to be at the event.
• 26:48
  Speaker 2: So she's repeated that line again, So we'll see if
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: she shows up.
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: What do we got here?
• 26:54
  Speaker 2: Atomic asphalt rights in and he talked about somebody calling
• 26:59
  Speaker 2: in to a different show. I don't know what that's about.
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: Let's go to the phones and let's see what we
• 27:04
  Speaker 2: got here. Any meaning money, but it says here we
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: have someone who's normal. Scotty on the pike is somewhat normal. Hello, Scotty, welcome,
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: Are you really normal?
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: Scottie?
• 27:15
  Speaker 5: Hello, Ben, Hello, Coop, Lorena. How you doing. I'm gonna
• 27:20
  Speaker 5: try and be normal, okay. Berst of all, I owe
• 27:23
  Speaker 5: all three of you of huge apology. I forgot to
• 27:26
  Speaker 5: thank you for the America two fifty discount on the
• 27:29
  Speaker 5: Maliplus subscription, but I was too busy getting destroyed by
• 27:33
  Speaker 5: a fecal face slug and family too the other day.
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: So I understand, I understand, and thank you for mentioning
• 27:40
  Speaker 2: that a lot of people don't a lot of people
• 27:42
  Speaker 2: don't use the discount.
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: So I'm glad that you did, Scotti, and we thank you.
• 27:46
  Speaker 5: And I did. I feel like I'm in the room
• 27:48
  Speaker 5: with you during the thurt table reach. I really do.
• 27:50
  Speaker 5: And I know, I mean, the promotion probably wasn't this great,
• 27:53
  Speaker 5: but you guys lost enough blood just getting the corporate
• 27:56
  Speaker 5: has to just counted for yourself.
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: I really appreciate it.
• 27:59
  Speaker 2: And don't get Scotty, we allowed you to eat the
• 28:01
  Speaker 2: last donut at the table.
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: We normally Coop eats.
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: The last doughnut, but we let you eat the last donut,
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: so I hope you appreciate that.
• 28:07
  Speaker 5: And bacon one too, which surprised me because I thought
• 28:11
  Speaker 5: that would be the first one to go.
• 28:12
  Speaker 7: But I know it is.
• 28:14
  Speaker 5: I appreciate that.
• 28:15
  Speaker 2: Normally the last donut is the coconut donut. For some reason,
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: that is a good point, because he's like, who would
• 28:24
  Speaker 2: leave that maple bacon donut.
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: It's very odd, clearly an oversight.
• 28:30
  Speaker 5: I was totally surprised. I thought it was still part
• 28:32
  Speaker 5: of the America two fifty promo, to be honest with you.
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: But yeah, well and every time.
• 28:38
  Speaker 2: And Scott, if you remember we mentioned this in the
• 28:40
  Speaker 2: table read. I think this was back on Monday. We
• 28:43
  Speaker 2: mentioned in the table read. And those Mallard plus subscribers,
• 28:46
  Speaker 2: not Wayne in the d Luth because he's too cheap
• 28:48
  Speaker 2: Wayne in the Louth to pay for it, but the
• 28:50
  Speaker 2: Mallard plus guys, you know that every time someone uses
• 28:53
  Speaker 2: the America two fifty discount to buy Mallard Plus. I
• 28:57
  Speaker 2: wrap myself in the flag, Scotti, Literally I wrapped myself
• 29:00
  Speaker 2: in the flag.
• 29:02
  Speaker 5: Yeah, absolutely, I still have that picture. As a matter
• 29:06
  Speaker 5: of fact, it's my screenshap on my phone.
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah, don't post that on social media though, do not
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: post me.
• 29:12
  Speaker 5: No, sir, I won't. I won't. So if you heard
• 29:14
  Speaker 5: about turf gait for the New England Patriots.
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: I have a little bit.
• 29:19
  Speaker 5: I don't know.
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: I don't know.
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: So they bought they got new turf from somewhere it
• 29:24
  Speaker 2: was it was it New Jersey or somewhere somewhere. I
• 29:28
  Speaker 2: read about it as bad. The turf was messed up?
• 29:30
  Speaker 2: Is that correct?
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: Am I right?
• 29:33
  Speaker 7: Correct?
• 29:33
  Speaker 5: And the NFL told and they had to rip it out.
• 29:35
  Speaker 5: So after they put in the beautiful natural field for
• 29:37
  Speaker 5: the World Cup because then they had like seven matches
• 29:39
  Speaker 5: there and I just don't know why they didn't keep
• 29:42
  Speaker 5: it because grass is better. But anyway, Yeah, so they
• 29:46
  Speaker 5: went with this company who said the I forget what
• 29:52
  Speaker 5: the layer is called underneath the actual surface made the
• 29:55
  Speaker 5: field too spongy, so they did not install it. And
• 30:00
  Speaker 5: the NFL found out and said, nope, rip this all out.
• 30:04
  Speaker 5: You got to put a new turpin. But they let
• 30:06
  Speaker 5: the Revolution play on it. Yeah, a couple they.
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: Don't care about They don't care about soccer. You know,

  Speaker 2: All right, let's say hello to Andre. Here's another good
• 32:12
  Speaker 2: call Andre Commonwealth.
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: Hello Andre, Andre?
• 32:17
  Speaker 5: What's going on?
• 32:18
  Speaker 7: Ben? Now? Listen?
• 32:19
  Speaker 5: Good to be with you.
• 32:21
  Speaker 7: We got certain things to discuss. Yeah, Willis's uh, he's
• 32:25
  Speaker 7: fired up to be with you. But Ben, you took
• 32:30
  Speaker 7: the donut. You took the first donut that that donut
• 32:33
  Speaker 7: sounded delicious. I didn't even get all of the components
• 32:37
  Speaker 7: of the donut. I'm not sure if it was a
• 32:39
  Speaker 7: Krispy Kreme. Are we talking about honey dew? Are we
• 32:42
  Speaker 7: talking about.
• 32:42
  Speaker 2: It's it's a mom and pop donut shop, baby. And
• 32:45
  Speaker 2: I don't know if you've updated your Mallard Plus subscription.
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: Andre, And what is going on with what is going
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: on with your dog? Willis? What is happening here? Is
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: the dog being is the dog okay, not being act.
• 32:58
  Speaker 7: If anything, he's a little out of line. You know,
• 33:01
  Speaker 7: He's gotten the Scooby snacks and he still wants to
• 33:04
  Speaker 7: He still wants to act up, which so we'll provide
• 33:08
  Speaker 7: a couple more Scooby stacks. But this we got to
• 33:10
  Speaker 7: get to the bottom myself, Willis and Scooby Doo of
• 33:13
  Speaker 7: why the previous caller, you know, who delivered a good call.
• 33:19
  Speaker 7: He seems certainly normal, but he was not given access
• 33:22
  Speaker 7: to the first donut man. This is almost the equivalent
• 33:25
  Speaker 7: of why Vitaveya almost left the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and
• 33:29
  Speaker 7: scuttled their chances to make the playoffs by winning the
• 33:32
  Speaker 7: NFC South Because the Buccaneers staff were obviously doing things
• 33:36
  Speaker 7: behind the scenes. He was not getting the first DIBs
• 33:38
  Speaker 7: on the Christy Kreme donuts. You know that, Vitaveya. He
• 33:41
  Speaker 7: needs those Christy Kreme donuts. What a six four sixty five,
• 33:44
  Speaker 7: four hundred pounds That defensive tackle, nose tackle, he still said,
• 33:49
  Speaker 7: is unique, distinctive to him. Clogged up the middle, you're
• 33:52
  Speaker 7: gonna have to run on the outside against Tampa Bay.
• 33:53
  Speaker 7: Everybody knows this, But those little things not providing those
• 33:57
  Speaker 7: Christy Creme donuts to Vita Bay, it almost scuttled their
• 33:59
  Speaker 7: entire Sason Best.
• 34:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I understand, of course, vidave I got a life
• 34:06
  Speaker 2: lesson there.
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: Andre.
• 34:07
  Speaker 2: He wanted a trade. He asked for a trade, he
• 34:09
  Speaker 2: wanted a new contract. He asked for a new contract.
• 34:12
  Speaker 2: He didn't get a trade. And he really if you
• 34:14
  Speaker 2: look at the contract thing he signed, it's not.
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: Really a new contract. He didn't get anything he wanted.
• 34:20
  Speaker 7: So thirty million dollars extension.
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: It's not that's nothing.
• 34:25
  Speaker 2: He wanted three or four years at like one hundred
• 34:28
  Speaker 2: million dollars.
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: It's nothing.
• 34:32
  Speaker 2: I mean, I would say if I got listen, if
• 34:34
  Speaker 2: I got that contract, I would have a party at
• 34:36
  Speaker 2: all my friends.
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: I'd say I've won the lottery, but in that world,
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: not that big a deal.
• 34:43
  Speaker 7: I see what you're saying, Ben, but I feel like, hey,
• 34:46
  Speaker 7: you're gonna give me thirty million dollars for one season.
• 34:48
  Speaker 7: I hit the market next year. Obviously the hot commodity.
• 34:52
  Speaker 2: He's not a hot come. If he was a hot commodity,
• 34:54
  Speaker 2: would have been traded. He's not a hot commodity. And
• 34:56
  Speaker 2: he's gonna be a year older from now. It's not
• 34:59
  Speaker 2: trust me. It's a reality check for I'll talk more
• 35:03
  Speaker 2: about that later for vide vea.
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: Oh my god, that dog. What is going on with
• 35:07

  Speaker 8: Earlier this week, Bills coach Joe Brady was asked about
• 38:35
  Speaker 8: feeling pressure following the knocking on the door comments from
• 38:38
  Speaker 8: Josh Allen earlier this month. Pretty said he doesn't think
• 38:41
  Speaker 8: about the Super Bowl and doesn't feel pressure because he's
• 38:44
  Speaker 8: ready for this. Bennett, the Bills don't make the Super Bowl,
• 38:47
  Speaker 8: do you think Brady's immediately on the hot seat.
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: Yes, yes, yes, yes.
• 38:51
  Speaker 2: They have PSLs now in Buffalo. They're wasting away the
• 38:54
  Speaker 2: Josh Allen years. It's nerve racking and he was an
• 38:58
  Speaker 2: unpopular higher. He seems like a good dude. He's a
• 39:00
  Speaker 2: goroofy SoundBite. Absolutely, we've seen plenty of one and done
• 39:04
  Speaker 2: coaches in the NFL. One hundred percent. There's no guarantee
• 39:08
  Speaker 2: Joe Brady gets a year two if the Bills sucked
• 39:10
  Speaker 2: this year underachieved.
• 39:11
  Speaker 8: Next, a report on Tuesday revealed how TV ratings have
• 39:14
  Speaker 8: plummeted for the Colorado Buffalo's from the start of the
• 39:17
  Speaker 8: Deon era until now been with the novelty wearing off.
• 39:20
  Speaker 8: Do you think there's a chance of a Deon Sanders buyout?
• 39:24
  Speaker 2: No, because the only reason people talk about Caliro is
• 39:27
  Speaker 2: still because of Deon Sanders, and they whoever they replace
• 39:30
  Speaker 2: him with, the program is going to go back to
• 39:32
  Speaker 2: what it was and they suck at least though they're
• 39:35
  Speaker 2: getting some publicity.
• 39:36
  Speaker 1: They're big on social media.
• 39:38
  Speaker 2: I don't think they're gonna buy him out because the
• 39:40
  Speaker 2: program goes back into irrelevancy, although you could argue they're
• 39:43
  Speaker 2: irrelevant right now as a football team.
• 39:45
  Speaker 8: Next, a piece from Yahore this week revealed the three
• 39:47
  Speaker 8: college football coaches most likely to receive NFL interest at
• 39:49
  Speaker 8: the end of the season, Marcus Freeman, Ryan Day, and
• 39:52
  Speaker 8: Steve Sarkisian. And do you think any of those guys
• 39:54
  Speaker 8: are coaching the NFL next year?
• 39:56
  Speaker 2: Marcus Freeman is going to coach in the NFL at
• 39:59
  Speaker 2: some point already, from what I understand, talk to some
• 40:01
  Speaker 2: NFL teams, multiple teams about that.
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: That's something he wants to do when the timing is right.
• 40:06
  Speaker 2: I wouldn't hire Sarkis in Ryan days, a guy of
• 40:09
  Speaker 2: Ohio states as good as they're supposed to be this year,
• 40:11
  Speaker 2: I could see that happening. But I'd say of those three,
• 40:13
  Speaker 2: Marcus Freeman is the one i'd bet on.
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: How did we do edition?
• 40:18
  Speaker 5: Yeah?
• 40:19
  Speaker 1: Yeah, God, the old time wins king at Mallard of
