3:18
Speaker 1: here now early in the morning, so we've gone it's
3:20
Speaker 1: overnight still for some, but it's early in the morning.
3:22
Speaker 1: People getting the jump on the traffic. So our lead
3:24
Speaker 1: this hour from sweet Home Chicago, Coole Legends, there tree
3:30
Speaker 1: in Chicago. You fomi there Big Bears backers and the
3:33
Speaker 1: Chicago Bears filling up the content, Kitty. We'd like to
3:38
Speaker 1: thank the Chicago Bears for providing us with good cannon
3:42
Speaker 1: fodder for the Malard monologue. Dateline Windy City, where the
3:46
Speaker 1: Bears head coach Ben Johnson talking the talk. All guys
3:52
Speaker 1: named Ben have to talk to talk. It's part of
3:53
Speaker 1: the deal. If your name Ben, you have to talk
3:55
Speaker 1: to talk. So Ben Johnson is aiming for the heavens,
4:00
Speaker 1: aiming for the heavens. He wants to be good, but
4:03
Speaker 1: not just good, right. They don't want to just win
4:06
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. That's boring. He don't want to just
4:08
Speaker 1: win the Super Bowl. No, no, no, you see what he said. No,
4:12
Speaker 1: he said, Ben Johnson, I thought this was fake when
4:14
Speaker 1: I first saw this hit. Apparently not. He wants the
4:18
Speaker 1: Chicago football team to have the highest scoring offense in
4:25
Speaker 1: NFL history. Say why Yeah? Johnson put a bulls eye
4:32
Speaker 1: on the twenty thirteen Peyton Manning Broncos from back in
4:37
Speaker 1: the day. Average that Bronco team, My computer like brain
4:41
Speaker 1: tells me thirty seven point nine points per game over
4:45
Speaker 1: a sixteen game regular season, thirty seven point nine points
4:48
Speaker 1: per game. And I thought it was like the greatest
4:52
Speaker 1: show on turf. But it was the Broncos. I guess
4:53
Speaker 1: they broke the Rams record back of the day. But anyway,
4:56
Speaker 1: the point is Ben Johnson says, that's the goal. He said,
4:59
Speaker 1: he knows that that's the number he wants. He wants
5:02
Speaker 1: to spacity. He says, I want shutouts. I want blowouts,
5:05
Speaker 1: he said, And he dismissed the standard protocol. The normal
5:10
Speaker 1: protocol is we want to win a championship, and he
5:13
Speaker 1: pointed out that that is not sufficient Ben Johnson. He
5:18
Speaker 1: noted that the thirty one other members of the cartel
5:21
Speaker 1: also are talking about winning a Super Bowl, and he says,
5:26
Speaker 1: I want more than that, all right, close quote. Of course,
5:30
Speaker 1: we know that there are certain teams that are not
5:32
Speaker 1: planning on winning a Super Bowl. The Arizona Cardinals, the Jets,
5:36
Speaker 1: the Cleveland Browns. Their dream is to win the number
5:40
Speaker 1: one overall pick in the draft, and therefore they will
5:44
Speaker 1: end up They do end up with that number one pick,
5:47
Speaker 1: most likely Arch Manning, and then we'll slow a lot
5:49
Speaker 1: of jerseys to dumb people and that'll be good. All right.
5:52
Speaker 1: So that is a solid jumping off point. Let's discuss
5:55
Speaker 1: the question where are you at on head coach Ben
5:59
Speaker 1: jons Johnson, show me you're Johnson. Where are you at? On?
6:04
Speaker 1: Ben Johnson setting a bullseye on the Bears becoming the
6:08
Speaker 1: highest scoring offense in NFL history, saying this is what
6:11
Speaker 1: we want, Uh, this is what wants. So I've got
6:14
Speaker 1: Burger King, vision, Quest and ecosystem, and we'll combine all
6:20
Speaker 1: of these things together and we will give you the
6:23
Speaker 1: number four jingle is that's live from the Raine Theater
6:30
Speaker 1: in Sherman Oaks, California. Right there, Ben tol the boulevard.
6:33
Speaker 1: And this weekend one appearance only is a long trip.
6:37
Speaker 1: She'll be appearing in Tallahassee, Florida. All right, so our
6:42
Speaker 1: lead this hour. To kick off the hour, Ben Johnson
6:47
Speaker 1: is talking like the Bears found the NFL cheat code,
6:52
Speaker 1: like they found how the Astros use trash cans, Babe
6:55
Speaker 1: bye or whistles whistle whistle, whistle bt uh. He's out.
7:00
Speaker 1: The Bears are gonna go out and hang fifty points
7:02
Speaker 1: every Sunday against the Vikings, the Packers, the Lions and me,
7:05
Speaker 1: oh my, and I assume for that to happen, Caleb
7:09
Speaker 1: Williams is going to have to get a Wiji board
7:11
Speaker 1: and channel the ghost of Rush Limbaugh who used to
7:15
Speaker 1: work out of this studio that we're in right now,
7:17
Speaker 1: and keep half his brain Caleb Williams tied behind his back.
7:21
Speaker 1: Just to make it fair, megadiddos, this is I love it.
7:25
Speaker 1: It's a burger king combo meal of coaching. Bravado. It
7:30
Speaker 1: is the whopper, not the whopper, Junior, It's the whopper.
7:33
Speaker 1: And let's do some maler math. You want to do
7:35
Speaker 1: some mal of maths, So let's suit malam. This is
7:37
Speaker 1: back of the napkin mala math. So the Bears average
7:39
Speaker 1: last year twenty five point seven points per game. That's
7:43
Speaker 1: not bad. In fact, is it true that the Chicago
7:47
Speaker 1: Bears were a top ten offense? Yes, barely. They were
7:49
Speaker 1: number nine. They were number nine. Ben Johnson is now
7:53
Speaker 1: fantasizing about the record, which just to tie the Broncos
7:58
Speaker 1: Peyton Manning record would be thirty seven point nine. So
8:01
Speaker 1: back of the napkin math mack to go from twenty
8:04
Speaker 1: five point seven points. I know it's radio and you're
8:07
Speaker 1: not paying attention, you're listening with half in here. Just
8:09
Speaker 1: bear with me. So twenty five point seven points to
8:12
Speaker 1: thirty seven point nine. That is a forty seven point
8:16
Speaker 1: four percent increase year to year. And that's just a
8:20
Speaker 1: time forty seven point four percent increase year to year
8:24
Speaker 1: to time. So it's always good to announce that you're
8:28
Speaker 1: going to have historic blowouts in August. That's a choice.
8:33
Speaker 1: That is a choice. The football gods are pretty petty.
8:39
Speaker 1: They've been known to be vindictive creatures. They certainly have
8:44
Speaker 1: over the years, and Ben Johnson poking them like he's
8:50
Speaker 1: tickling the tail on a monster, a fire breathing dragon.
8:54
Speaker 1: In this case, though, Ben Johnson said, you know, I
8:57
Speaker 1: see the football gods and they're out there for some reason,
8:59
Speaker 1: they're on the field. So I'm gonna take my cattle
9:01
Speaker 1: proud and I'm going to give them a little cattle
9:05
Speaker 1: production right there. Why not keep in mind the Bears,
9:08
Speaker 1: this is always the problem with cold weather teams, and
9:10
Speaker 1: I realized the Broncos were able to do it, and
9:12
Speaker 1: they play cold weather games in Denver. However, generally speaking,
9:17
Speaker 1: and we see this with Buffalo all the time. They
9:19
Speaker 1: get out of the gates, usually pretty good, good offensive team,
9:22
Speaker 1: and then it gets progressively harder to score a lot
9:24
Speaker 1: of points when you get late in the year when
9:25
Speaker 1: the weather turns nasty. In the NFL, So the Bears,
9:29
Speaker 1: I looked it up. They have not one, not two,
9:31
Speaker 1: but three games that are going to be played in
9:34
Speaker 1: a frozen meat locker. Couple of games at Soldier Field.
9:37
Speaker 1: They also have a December if you look at December
9:39
Speaker 1: January schedule, they have three games, two at Soldier Field.
9:42
Speaker 1: They also have a trip to Western New York to Buffalo,
9:47
Speaker 1: so that's three outdoor cold weather games December January, and
9:52
Speaker 1: just in general, it was the President Teddy Roosevelt who
9:55
Speaker 1: said speak softly and carry a big stick. Ben Johnson
9:59
Speaker 1: must have been listening with half an ear and he said, listen,
10:03
Speaker 1: you grab a megaphone and you'll whack the hornet's nest.
10:05
Speaker 1: That's what you do. Now, this is spectacular five star
10:10
Speaker 1: content for the struggling gas bags and blowhards that we
10:15
Speaker 1: are here on the radio. And I cannot wait for
10:19
Speaker 1: that December game against Buffalo when they score seventeen points
10:23
Speaker 1: in a lake effect blizzard. Ill and everyone will bring
10:27
Speaker 1: these quotes up from Ben Jonson, or even if they
10:29
Speaker 1: get off to a slow star theye has a clunker
10:32
Speaker 1: the first month of the year, there's usually one clunker
10:34
Speaker 1: in there, and so just clip and save it and
10:37
Speaker 1: then everyone will play it and laugh and point their
10:38
Speaker 1: finger and say haha, like Nelson from the Simpsons. Now,
10:43
Speaker 1: furthermore to mister Rogers neighborhood, our obligatory Mallard monologue mentioned
10:49
Speaker 1: on air, and Rogers, so the Steelers and Packers are
10:55
Speaker 1: getting together for a little match up here. They're gonna
10:59
Speaker 1: wrestle or in the preseason. Now, Rogers said he was
11:03
Speaker 1: one hundred percent hoping the Steelers preseason matchup with Green
11:07
Speaker 1: Bay would be played at Lambou Field with a gift
11:12
Speaker 1: shop the size of Costco, and Rogers said, give you
11:16
Speaker 1: know he wanted to go there and give him a
11:18
Speaker 1: chance to return to his longtime hometown. Why not hometown,
11:23
Speaker 1: but his NFL hometown there in green Bay. That is
11:26
Speaker 1: not the case. Rogers waxed loquacious about Green Bay, and
11:31
Speaker 1: I was like, wow, I've been to Green Bay and
11:32
Speaker 1: I don't remember that many cool things about it. But
11:34
Speaker 1: he was very happy about it. Rogers has said that
11:39
Speaker 1: is it. This is the swan song, This is the
11:44
Speaker 1: last dance. Nana Nana nananana, goodbye, It's all over that.
11:52
Speaker 1: This is it. The twenty twenty six NFL season will
11:55
Speaker 1: be his last. He has been very vague about the
12:00
Speaker 1: the eventual ceremonial return to Green Bay where they trot
12:04
Speaker 1: you out and everyone kisses your ass at the fifty
12:08
Speaker 1: yard line and talk about you like your some kind
12:11
Speaker 1: of deity. Rogers has not commented on that he did well,
12:16
Speaker 1: He hasn't said yes to it. He said, quote, there
12:18
Speaker 1: first has to be an invite back. We'll see about that.
12:23
Speaker 1: He said, there has to be an invite back. Now that, kids,
12:26
Speaker 1: is what we call the money quote. That is the
12:29
Speaker 1: money quote. So here's the question. We're to frame it
12:32
Speaker 1: this way. Can you decode the meaning of Steelers quarterback
12:37
Speaker 1: Aaron Rogers saying there has to be an invite back
12:42
Speaker 1: when asked about returning to Green Bay for the sappy
12:46
Speaker 1: ceremonial bull crap that you get when you retire. Most
12:50
Speaker 1: people don't get that, all right, So Rogers, the way
12:55
Speaker 1: he said this, he essentially put himself in a shrink's office,
13:04
Speaker 1: on the fainting couch, if you will, the psychiatrist couch,
13:09
Speaker 1: and all the nostalgic psycho babble about Lamball Field and
13:17
Speaker 1: his favorite restaurant and all that. He was just itemizing
13:22
Speaker 1: the emotional damage. All right, that's it. So we'd like
13:26
Speaker 1: to present doctor Maller, not a trained doctor, but I
13:28
Speaker 1: play one on the radio, your favorite radio shrink. Whatever
13:33
Speaker 1: happened to doctor Laura when I first started at Fox
13:36
Speaker 1: Sports Radio. Doctor Laura was probably don't know who that is,
13:39
Speaker 1: but she was a big star on radio. She did
13:41
Speaker 1: a daytime talk show, or she yelled at women and
13:46
Speaker 1: told them they're idiots and men too, but mostly when
13:49
Speaker 1: she's still around. Anyway, I just thought of her name
13:52
Speaker 1: just randomly popped in my head. That's a non sequitor
13:55
Speaker 1: back to it, though, So as doctor Maller, I will
13:58
Speaker 1: be the doctor Laura on the show, be doctor Amount.
14:01
Speaker 1: So the diagnosis of the problem here, unresolved breakup trauma.
14:08
Speaker 1: Unresolved break up trauma. A ubt, a ubt. The Packers decide,
14:14
Speaker 1: here's my analysis. Tell me if I'm wrong on this.
14:17
Speaker 1: The Packers decided that they had already consumed their lifetime
14:22
Speaker 1: supply of passive aggressive bull crap, and they went out.
14:28
Speaker 1: They hired locksmith, they changed the locks and they chose
14:32
Speaker 1: a younger lover in Jordan Love. See what he did there?
14:36
Speaker 1: And the tell on this, all right, you gotta listen
14:39
Speaker 1: between the words. The tell was Rogers insisting that there
14:42
Speaker 1: must be an invite back. That wasn't a Freudian slip,
14:48
Speaker 1: that was a Freudian ayahuasca vision. Quest is what that was?
14:52
Speaker 1: From Aaron Rodgers translation, Hey go talk to them, dummy.
14:58
Speaker 1: They dumped me, the dumb me, so they better come
15:03
Speaker 1: crawling back and kiss my left cheek and my right
15:07
Speaker 1: treek and not on my face. Yeah, it sounded like
15:11
Speaker 1: a guy checking his ex's Instagram at two in the
15:15
Speaker 1: morning while insisting he's completely over. Everything's good, nothing to
15:20
Speaker 1: see here, And green Bay initiated this divorce. I think
15:24
Speaker 1: it's pretty clear that Rogers he was a bit of
15:27
Speaker 1: a douche. He was trying to figure things out there.
15:30
Speaker 1: He thought he had more power than he did, and
15:33
Speaker 1: he thought he had some issues with the coaching staff,
15:35
Speaker 1: and so he thought he could make some changes. It
15:37
Speaker 1: didn't work out, obviously, and Green Bay initiated this football divorce.
15:41
Speaker 1: And Rogers he never forgot who filed the paperwork. And
15:46
Speaker 1: beneath all the sentimentality, there's there still appears to be
15:53
Speaker 1: this a little bit of a well actually not a little,
15:56
Speaker 1: this psychological scar tissue from in the boot and thinking
16:02
Speaker 1: you had more power than you did. And Rogers doesn't
16:05
Speaker 1: want closure. He would like a nice parade, He would
16:10
Speaker 1: like a hug, He would like to have a bouquet
16:12
Speaker 1: of flowers. He would like his toes licked, and a
16:16
Speaker 1: notarized apology from the front office of the green Bay
16:20
Speaker 1: Packers and owners. Of course, there's no ownership. The fans
16:23
Speaker 1: on the team, but do you know what I mean?
16:24
Speaker 1: All right last thing. Dafella Delphia we Go a classic
16:29
Speaker 1: NFL training camp story. Outrage in the Delaware Valley sparked
16:36
Speaker 1: by a post on social media the phillip Delphia Eagles.
16:41
Speaker 1: Now they posted on the official social media accounts here
16:45
Speaker 1: the training camp video showing quarterback Jalen Hurts throwing in
16:52
Speaker 1: I n T interception. They showed they released a video
17:00
Speaker 1: of their quarterback, there forever quarterback throwing an interception, and that,
17:06
Speaker 1: of course prompted what panic at the disco? Oh no,
17:13
Speaker 1: you can't do that. You're trying to embarrass your quarterback,
17:18
Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts. What's wrong with you? You losers? Of course,
17:22
Speaker 1: this comes after Hurts pushed back against attempts to reimagine
17:28
Speaker 1: the offense there in Philadelphia toversify igus is the big
17:32
Speaker 1: buzzword that they used, and they supposedly wanted him to
17:36
Speaker 1: take more snaps under center. The Eagles leaked a lot
17:39
Speaker 1: of this stuff to the media to try to put
17:40
Speaker 1: pressure on Jalen Hurts. And so here we are at
17:45
Speaker 1: a fork in the road. That's right, A routine, routine
17:49
Speaker 1: training camp interception becomes a highly combustible situation because it
17:55
Speaker 1: landed amid reports of friction with Jalen Hurts in his
18:01
Speaker 1: situation in the offense there in Philadelphia. So the question,
18:06
Speaker 1: how would you characterize a Jalen Hurts practice interception starting
18:12
Speaker 1: a starting an Eagles hullabaloo? It's clearly an Eagles hullabaloo.
18:18
Speaker 1: So this shows how ridiculous state sponsored media in the
18:24
Speaker 1: NFL has become. I've talked about this a few times
18:26
Speaker 1: earl years, many many years ago. I will date myself
18:28
Speaker 1: if I say when, but an executive who worked for
18:30
Speaker 1: a Major League Baseball team told me that this is
18:35
Speaker 1: when Major League Baseball started their website. It was like revolutionary.
18:38
Speaker 1: You know, the Internet was still relatively new, and I
18:41
Speaker 1: was like, wow, they had their own reporters covering games.
18:45
Speaker 1: And then guys like, listen, back then, people actually read
18:47
Speaker 1: these things called newspapers. You can just google what that is.
18:50
Speaker 1: A lot of people don't even know what that is anymore.
18:52
Speaker 1: There were relevant newspapers back in the day, though, they
18:54
Speaker 1: had a lot of power. And this executive told me,
18:59
Speaker 1: he said, listen, you know, we are going to do this.
19:02
Speaker 1: And initially Baseball got ripped for having their own website.
19:06
Speaker 1: People and they said, wow, that's you know, you're not.
19:08
Speaker 1: You're obviously biased. We want our coverage to be unbiased.
19:11
Speaker 1: And the executives explained to me, and I'm paraphrased most
19:15
Speaker 1: of this, and he said, listen, we're going to do
19:17
Speaker 1: this and eventually, you know, people are going to grow
19:20
Speaker 1: up with this and this is going to be all
19:21
Speaker 1: they know. They're going to go to us for the story. Right,
19:25
Speaker 1: We're gonna go to They're going to go to us
19:27
Speaker 1: to find out what's going on. And he you know what,
19:31
Speaker 1: one hundred percent correct, time has passed, generations have grown up,
19:35
Speaker 1: and now here we are, uh, you know, here we are.
19:39
Speaker 1: So this shows how ridiculous state sponsored media is in
19:43
Speaker 1: the NFL. And it's too late. It's you know, the
19:47
Speaker 1: people that are flum mixed right now because the Eagles
19:51
Speaker 1: social media account committed the unforgivable sin, a war crime
19:55
Speaker 1: of posting reality. How dare you right? This is not
20:01
Speaker 1: even about the interception. The interception is like the symptom.
20:06
Speaker 1: It's about the ecosystem of the brainwashed fan, the conditioned
20:14
Speaker 1: fan that grew up with this crap, and that's all
20:17
Speaker 1: they know, and that's all they like. They expect the
20:19
Speaker 1: fan that grew up with state sponsored media in sports
20:22
Speaker 1: expects only curated positivity from team media, and for at
20:28
Speaker 1: least a generation, fans have been spoon fed lollipops. You
20:32
Speaker 1: get a lollipop and look there's a rainbow.
20:35
Speaker 2: Look at the rainbow, and there's a puppy dog. Oh,
20:39
Speaker 2: look at the cute puppy dog. Everything has been sanitized,
20:43
Speaker 2: everything has been filtered. It's team propaganda. Quarterback one looks amazing.
20:48
Speaker 2: Who cares if you through seven interceptions?
20:50
Speaker 1: We're not gonna talk about that. Don't talk about that.
20:53
Speaker 1: At everyone's in the best shape of their life. That's right.
20:58
Speaker 1: Every coach makes all the right to decisions, and we
21:02
Speaker 1: are on the express train to the Super Bowl. Cheo. Yeah,
21:06
Speaker 1: that's what you get from state sponsored me, the NFL,
21:09
Speaker 1: Major League Baseball, NBA hockey. They all do it. They
21:12
Speaker 1: all do it. And then someone accidentally accidentally posts an
21:18
Speaker 1: interception and suddenly alarm bell starts sounding wooooooooo. You get
21:26
Speaker 1: out to Zabruta film a training camp, and the reaction,
21:31
Speaker 1: this reaction is validation and verification of that particular point
21:38
Speaker 1: when propaganda becomes the norm. Reality feels like an attack.
21:43
Speaker 1: Oh we're being good tech Chalen hurts us being good tech.
21:47
Speaker 1: So if you're feeling like this, I recommend just stay calm,
21:51
Speaker 1: take a deep breath, breathe. I recommend a cup of water,
21:55
Speaker 1: hydrate electrolytes like Tom Brady and touch some go out
22:00
Speaker 1: there and touch them grass. When this is the norm
22:03
Speaker 1: and it is, it's just crazy. It's like, oh my god,
22:05
Speaker 1: we're being attacked. I can't believe, Like, do I believe
22:08
Speaker 1: that Howie Roseman himself descended from the executive suite stroking
22:14
Speaker 1: a white cat and ordered release the Hurts interception. It
22:20
Speaker 1: is much more plausible to think that something far less sinative,
22:25
Speaker 1: sinister happened, like, for example, uh, some low level content
22:31
Speaker 1: specialist fresh out of college, likely eating orange chicken at
22:36
Speaker 1: a Panda Express right now, updating their resume, click the
22:41
Speaker 1: wrong button. They're right near the soda machine by the way,
22:44
Speaker 1: Panda and they're having they're having the chow maine, not
22:48
Speaker 1: the rice, the chow main, not the rice. And they're
22:51
Speaker 1: right now on Express pros and they're saying, all right,
22:55
Speaker 1: let me let me look here what jobs are open.
22:58
Speaker 1: They've just discovered that it is a temporary position. Right

27:26
Speaker 6: he has to suck up. His focus is really off
27:30
Speaker 6: in terms of the best The best night of your
27:33
Speaker 6: life was not winning the Super Bowl in Las Vegas

28:07
Speaker 1: to you? You're calling up trashing Travis Kelcey. How about this,
28:13
Speaker 1: I have I have an alternative reality? How about Travis
28:15
Speaker 1: Kelcey doesn't want to answer any questions, so he knows
28:19
Speaker 1: that the dopey media will eat up the fact that
28:23
Speaker 1: he sucked up to his wife and they'll love that
28:26
Speaker 1: and they'll say what a great guy he is. And

28:33
Speaker 5: How about that, Ben, After.
28:35
Speaker 6: My after my fight with heart disease, I've become a
28:38
Speaker 6: more realistic Chiefs fan. My heart is now returning more
28:43
Speaker 6: than fifty percent and the minimum range where my doctor
28:48
Speaker 6: wants me to be. So I'm I'm getting better. But
28:51
Speaker 6: I've grown then, I've changed, I've become I've seen the
28:55
Speaker 6: light in this, in this new era that we have
28:59
Speaker 6: to we have to get rid of Travis Kelcey eventually.
29:02
Speaker 1: And wow, and I am I am shocked this. I
29:07
Speaker 1: did not expect this to happen. I did not expect
29:10
Speaker 1: this to happen. This is wild to me. Yes, my god,
29:14
Speaker 1: are you am I being punked here? This can't this
29:17
Speaker 1: not be? This is not legit right, You're.
29:19
Speaker 6: Punking I've had growths in my in my character, and
29:22
Speaker 6: I think his priorities are completely off, you know, sleeping
29:27
Speaker 6: with pop singers and uh and yeah, maybe maybe they're
29:32
Speaker 6: gonna have kids and be be forever together. But this, this,
29:37
Speaker 6: this comment just kind of indicates that that the Chiefs
29:41
Speaker 6: maybe we maybe slightly weakened.
29:44
Speaker 1: This year, that this is wild. So you I want
29:49
Speaker 1: to talk to your surgeon. That's what I want to
29:51
Speaker 1: talk to, because that's the person. What did they plan?
29:53
Speaker 1: A chip in there? Is this like this is some
29:56
Speaker 1: kind of weird chip thing in there that they're messing
29:59
Speaker 1: with you.
30:00
Speaker 6: In this world of miracles?
30:02
Speaker 1: Ben?
30:02
Speaker 6: Can I can I convert you to becoming a w
30:07
Speaker 6: NBA fan? I saw this, I saw this rant by
30:10
Speaker 6: Stephanie White as well, the all time greatest sports rants
30:15
Speaker 6: of you know, since Lee Elias or Hal McCrae or
30:20
Speaker 6: Dennis Johnson. Tommys yeah, yeah, Tommy Losorda the love piece
30:26
Speaker 6: and forgiveness for everyone and and to hell with anyone
30:30
Speaker 6: that doesn't agree with this. And then the w NBA
30:33
Speaker 6: just called their fans hateful in the meeting yesterday.
30:37
Speaker 5: Apparently they had.
30:38
Speaker 1: Well and it's a it's a fair question it's you're
30:43
Speaker 1: ball guarding all the time. I will answer the question
30:45
Speaker 1: this way that I don't really talk about the w
30:47
Speaker 1: NB because we don't talk politics. We try to avoid
30:49
Speaker 1: politics on the show. And they're really not a basketball league.
30:51
Speaker 1: They're political hot potato. It's uh, everything's the culture work,
30:56
Speaker 1: you know what he is. The w NBA is like Peoria.
30:59
Speaker 1: There used to be a raise in advertising. If it
31:01
Speaker 1: plays in Peoria, it'll play anywhere, right because that was
31:04
Speaker 1: like the biggest representation of American society in politics. It's
31:09
Speaker 1: does it play in the WNBA? The culture war. The
31:12
Speaker 1: battlefield is the WNBA. So anyway, thank you, Keg drinking Steve,
