- 2:56Speaker 1: I'll get back to the football conversation. The big story
- 2:59Speaker 1: in baseball was Kyle Tucker as he's heading to the Dodgers.
- 3:03Speaker 1: It's not fair, it's not right. It was all up
- 3:05Speaker 1: an arms to chill out, relax. Okay, what a loser attitude.
- 3:10Speaker 1: But our lead this hour from the Pacific Northwest, as
- 3:14Speaker 1: we are not that far away. This is now Friday,
- 3:16Speaker 1: so you know what that means tomorrow? It's there. They
- 3:19Speaker 1: are sleepless in Seattle. Are they really sleepless in Seattle?
- 3:23Speaker 1: Injury Scare? Injury Scare Pacific Northwest, Pacific Northwest. The Seahawks quarterback,
- 3:31Speaker 1: Is it true? Sam Donald popped up on the injury list?
- 3:35Speaker 1: Oh MJ. You see this? You did? Okay? Maybe not
- 3:42Speaker 1: all right? So Sam Donald has a oblique injury. That's
- 3:46Speaker 1: a side, that's the side of your body. He has
- 3:48Speaker 1: a oblique injury and has been listed as questionable capital
- 3:54Speaker 1: see holy no. Stredenis batman. Now we are told that
- 4:00Speaker 1: is anticipating and planning on playing in the game tomorrow
- 4:04Speaker 1: in the divisional round against the forty nine ers despite
- 4:09Speaker 1: the injury on his side. Now, from what we are told,
- 4:13Speaker 1: the injury occurred during practice on Thursday. Darnald said he
- 4:18Speaker 1: quote felt a little something, Oh sounds kinky. That was
- 4:22Speaker 1: in the left side, you know, bleak the side of
- 4:25Speaker 1: the muscles on the side of your bi so left
- 4:26Speaker 1: side in the kind of like above your waist a
- 4:29Speaker 1: little bit, you know, And that's it's kind of important,
- 4:31Speaker 1: kind of important. I was throwing during the you know,
- 4:36Speaker 1: obviously the practice period. He left practice precautionary measures blah
- 4:39Speaker 1: blah blah blah blah. So that is a good jumping
- 4:41Speaker 1: off point. Let us discuss. Seems like kind of a
- 4:45Speaker 1: big deal that a starting quarterback in the NFL a
- 4:48Speaker 1: couple of days before a playoff game ends up on
- 4:51Speaker 1: the injured list as questionable. So my question to the
- 4:56Speaker 1: esteem panel, how concerned should the twelfth may the twelves?
- 5:00Speaker 1: How concerned should the twelves be about Sam Donald reporting
- 5:04Speaker 1: an oblique injury for the Seahawks. So my observations, I
- 5:08Speaker 1: have capture the flag, pirouette on the catwalk and Sega
- 5:15Speaker 1: pinball machine, and we will combine all of these three
- 5:19Speaker 1: things together. We're gonna play connect three one two three
- 5:22Speaker 1: ABC is what we're going to do. So number I stop,
- 5:33Speaker 1: all right, So let me dig my claws into this.
- 5:37Speaker 1: Check out the Malor panic O meter, which is never wrong,
- 5:43Speaker 1: the Malor Panicometer scale of one to ten, and I
- 5:47Speaker 1: have the Mallard Panicometer pegged at an eight an eight.
- 5:53Speaker 1: Now keep in mind the Mallard Panico meter is not
- 5:56Speaker 1: at an eight because Sam Donald is actually somehow broken.
- 5:59Speaker 1: No no, no, no, no, no. Note, it's because this
- 6:03Speaker 1: smells like you smell that. That's Capture the Flag. It's
- 6:07Speaker 1: a lot of sweat. There's a lot of phlegm, a
- 6:10Speaker 1: lot of mucus the flag. When Sam's playing Capture the Flag,
- 6:14Speaker 1: the flag is embroidered with excuses. This is what's known
- 6:19Speaker 1: as a preemptive spin job by the Seattle Seahawks and
- 6:24Speaker 1: Sam Donald. Sam Donald's oblique is the perfect alibi, the
- 6:30Speaker 1: perfect alibi when he commandeers the Vomit Comet. And when
- 6:35Speaker 1: he commandeers the Vomit Commet, he throws a couple of
- 6:38Speaker 1: wobblers and that tip pass that bounces off the receiver's
- 6:42Speaker 1: hands and is intercepted, and then he throws that he
- 6:45Speaker 1: fumbles the ball. There and he walks off the field
- 6:48Speaker 1: and then he goes into the news conference room and say,
- 6:50Speaker 1: well Sam, you didn't play very well. What happened? And
- 6:54Speaker 1: you know, and then he points to his left side.
- 6:57Speaker 1: He points to his left side, and he says, hey man,
- 7:00Speaker 1: you know, dude, what do you want me to do?
- 7:02Speaker 1: I mean, what do you want? What do you want
- 7:03Speaker 1: from me? I got, you know, the side thing? You
- 7:05Speaker 1: get the thing of magic on the side. Now, if
- 7:07Speaker 1: Seattle wins, of course, this injury will vanish faster than
- 7:10Speaker 1: free nachos in a press box. It's insurance. It's troll insurance.
- 7:17Speaker 1: Here's the problem. Now, I know it works for low
- 7:19Speaker 1: information fans. I'm sure no streudenas already has his excuse
- 7:22Speaker 1: posts ready to go on social media when Seattle loses.
- 7:27Speaker 1: When you suit up and you're listed as you're hurt,
- 7:31Speaker 1: always hurt, what you're doing is actually signing a silent
- 7:35Speaker 1: contract with your teammates and your fan base that you're
- 7:39Speaker 1: good enough to win that day. That's what you're doing
- 7:42Speaker 1: when you agree to play. When you suit up and
- 7:45Speaker 1: you're hurt. Now you're injured, you don't play. But if
- 7:47Speaker 1: you're hurt, you're supposed to play. It, you rub some
- 7:49Speaker 1: dirt on it, put a little ice pack pharmacy grade ibuprofen.
- 7:53Speaker 1: And it's a high stake situation. But availability, as always,
- 7:57Speaker 1: availability is the best ability. Blah blah blah blah. However,
- 8:01Speaker 1: the quote that I think applies here, the great Lou
- 8:03Speaker 1: Holtz back in the day, says, don't tell me how
- 8:05Speaker 1: rocky the sea is. Bring the ship in. And if
- 8:09Speaker 1: Sam Donald goes out there and plays like he normally
- 8:11Speaker 1: does in big games, the ship be sinking. So do
- 8:14Speaker 1: your job, as Belichick used to say back in the
- 8:16Speaker 1: day when he was good. Now page So we zoom
- 8:19Speaker 1: off to the windy city of Chicago, the Monsters of
- 8:23Speaker 1: the Midway, the Bears taking on the Rams in an
- 8:27Speaker 1: NFC match up this weekend. And as the Rams and
- 8:30Speaker 1: Bears get ready for a matchup in an ice box
- 8:35Speaker 1: at Soldier Field, the Rams were practicing this week in
- 8:38Speaker 1: eighty degree weather. Eighty degree weather, the Rams practicing in
- 8:43Speaker 1: so that's kind of good for them, I guess, yeah, sure.
- 8:46Speaker 1: And the Bears practicing inside the bubble thing they have
- 8:50Speaker 1: and all that. Well, Matthew Stafford is planning on fighting
- 8:54Speaker 1: back against mother nature. Did you see this not? Maybe not.
- 8:58Speaker 1: But we learned that Matthews is going to follow the
- 9:01Speaker 1: lead of Tom Brady and he will be donning what
- 9:04Speaker 1: he will be wearing a scuba suit. Guess yeah, he's
- 9:10Speaker 1: gonna wear a scuba suit for the for the elements
- 9:12Speaker 1: there in Chicago. So question, here's the question. Should Matthew
- 9:17Speaker 1: Stafford wearing a scuba outfit in the Windy City give
- 9:23Speaker 1: ram fans pause? All Right? So I spent about thirty
- 9:29Speaker 1: seconds of my life. Someday I'll be dead, and I
- 9:31Speaker 1: wish I had that thirty seconds back. I spent thirty
- 9:33Speaker 1: seconds of my life deliberating, and I say no, I
- 9:39Speaker 1: say no, this is nothing to get worked up about.
- 9:43Speaker 1: It's the boy scout motto, be prepared. And I couldn't
- 9:47Speaker 1: give a a cockroach's ass. If Matthew Stafford does cosplay
- 9:53Speaker 1: as Aquaman from the Lost Kingdom out there running around,
- 9:56Speaker 1: as long as he's throwing the football effectively not turning
- 9:59Speaker 1: the ball over, keeping the Rams offense, matriculating down the field,
- 10:03Speaker 1: just don't go out there and pretend like you're SpongeBob SquarePants.
- 10:07Speaker 1: We don't want that. We don't want that. And look,
- 10:09Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford, from what I have deciphered. He's worn the
- 10:14Speaker 1: wetsuit before, so it's not like he hasn't done this before.
- 10:18Speaker 1: And there are rumors that Sean McVeigh it's gonna make
- 10:23Speaker 1: it like a combo thing, like a tandem deal. He's
- 10:25Speaker 1: also gonna wear a wetsuit on the sidelines so they
- 10:28Speaker 1: can get together and you can do a pirouett on
- 10:31Speaker 1: the catwalk at Soldier Field. Now, I do have an
- 10:35Speaker 1: unpopular opinion. It's not part of the orthodoxy of the
- 10:38Speaker 1: sporting world right now. The NFL media, my brothers and
- 10:42Speaker 1: sisters in the NFL media love love the cold weather narrative.
- 10:48Speaker 1: You learn it when you go to sports writer clown college,
- 10:51Speaker 1: the cold weather narrative. However, as I have gotten older,
- 10:57Speaker 1: I believe the impact has been less. And that narrative
- 11:02Speaker 1: of the cold weather and how big an impact it is,
- 11:05Speaker 1: I believe it's greatly exaggerated and it really only rattles
- 11:10Speaker 1: the mentally weak player, the guys who are already defeated
- 11:13Speaker 1: when they see their breath. Oh my god, I see,
- 11:17Speaker 1: here's the deal. It's not nineteen sixty seven last I
- 11:20Speaker 1: checked anymore. It's just not And you know, Van the
- 11:25Speaker 1: one legged Bama man might disagree, but they've got advanced
- 11:28Speaker 1: bells and whistles. Now, they've always kind of had heated benches,
- 11:32Speaker 1: but those are like top level. You've got the next
- 11:36Speaker 1: generation of handwarmers. You've got the portable saunas. For God's sakes,
- 11:40Speaker 1: they're sipping the chicken bra off the hot chocolate at
- 11:42Speaker 1: halftime and even during the game. It's like it's like
- 11:44Speaker 1: they're at a ski resort out there. To me, the
- 11:49Speaker 1: cold weather narrative still applies to one group the real heroes.
- 11:54Speaker 1: The real heroes are the fans, the people that sit
- 11:58Speaker 1: sedentary in a feels like nine degree day in Chicago
- 12:04Speaker 1: and there will be many of them in Siberia for
- 12:06Speaker 1: four hours without moving much at all. The players have
- 12:11Speaker 1: every possible creature comfort you could have to deal with
- 12:14Speaker 1: cold weather. And if you're a fan, you got to
- 12:18Speaker 1: do it yourself, right, You do it yourself, Diy. You
- 12:21Speaker 1: got to bring your own stuff, and a lot of
- 12:23Speaker 1: that stuff's not allowed in the stadium. So that's where
- 12:26Speaker 1: I am on this game. And hey, after the Rams
- 12:30Speaker 1: beat the Bears, the team should get together and they
- 12:33Speaker 1: should celebrate and do a polar plunge into Lake Michigan.
- 12:37Speaker 1: I think that would be a wonderful thing. Who says no?
- 12:40Speaker 1: All right, final point to the Bay Area we go.
- 12:44Speaker 1: An unusual, unusual theory has emerged. Some prominent prominent agents
- 12:53Speaker 1: believe that the forty nine ers have a big problem
- 12:55Speaker 1: on their hands, and they have a theory as to
- 12:58Speaker 1: why there are so many plays is getting injured with
- 13:01Speaker 1: the forty nine ers? Did you see this? If not,
- 13:05Speaker 1: buckle up, buckaroo. The forty nine ers practice facility is
- 13:11Speaker 1: next to an electrical substation operated by the Silicon Valley
- 13:16Speaker 1: Power Company. Now, the hypothesis is that since the players
- 13:21Speaker 1: spend most of their time at the facility and it's
- 13:24Speaker 1: in close proximity to low frequency electromagnetic fields, do do
- 13:30Speaker 1: do do do do do do Do Do do doo?
- 13:32Speaker 1: That that that that weakens tendons and causes soft tissue damage,
- 13:39Speaker 1: and that is why the forty nine ers are leading
- 13:42Speaker 1: the world in injuries every single year. Yeah, this should
- 13:47Speaker 1: be talked about on coast to coast, but we'll talk
- 13:49Speaker 1: about it right here. So the question is, do you
- 13:52Speaker 1: believe an electrical substation is to blame for the forty
- 13:58Speaker 1: nine ers having an in festation of injuries? Do do
- 14:03Speaker 1: do do do Do Do Do Do Do Do Do Do
- 14:05Speaker 1: Do Do Do do do do do do? Uh? Sure,
- 14:10Speaker 1: why not that that humming electrical substation next to the
- 14:13Speaker 1: practice facility, courtesy of the Silicon Valley Power Group is
- 14:18Speaker 1: zapping the players with low frequency electromagnetic fields and they're
- 14:24Speaker 1: turning tendons into wet spaghetti. It's wet spaghetti, is what
- 14:29Speaker 1: it is here. Uh, that's the ticket, unless it's not.
- 14:32Speaker 1: Come on, people, come on, now, what are we doing?
- 14:36Speaker 1: Are there still people? I remember a few years back
- 14:39Speaker 1: there was the five G crowd that was convinced that
- 14:42Speaker 1: five G was going to be the death of all
- 14:44Speaker 1: of us. And so now I don't totally dismiss all
- 14:49Speaker 1: all conspiracies. I don't, I don't. This one doesn't seem
- 14:53Speaker 1: seem legit to me. This is the the Sega pinball machine,
- 14:58Speaker 1: wack a doodle doo, whack noodle, new on steroids and
- 15:03Speaker 1: the science you know, who knows you know what science is?
- 15:05Speaker 1: These days were kind of ruined science in twenty twenty.
- 15:08Speaker 1: But the science says no, that low frequency that that substation,
- 15:14Speaker 1: the levels that that facility sends out does not apparently
- 15:19Speaker 1: shred ligaments of course that's what they're saying. There's no
- 15:24Speaker 1: credible evidence that that is legit. It appears to be
- 15:28Speaker 1: just some kind of Internet fever dream kind of thing.
- 15:33Speaker 1: I don't know if Jay Scoop cooked that up or not.
- 15:35Speaker 1: I don't know, or Nesto in the Bay Area. I
- 15:37Speaker 1: have to check with that. Well, the Niners have been
- 15:41Speaker 1: in that general location practicing there since Ronald Reagan was
- 15:47Speaker 1: in the White House in the late eighties, and they
- 15:50Speaker 1: have won multiple Super Bowls. Montana was in that building,
- 15:55Speaker 1: Steve Young was in that building. They've been to six
- 15:58Speaker 1: Super Bowls. And yeah, and yet they've had that same
- 16:03Speaker 1: kind of area right near the power, right near the
- 16:06Speaker 1: power and frying hamstrings like cheap bacon right at the
- 16:11Speaker 1: forty nine er facility. And we all know the cliche
- 16:14Speaker 1: that injuries happen all the time in the NFL, and
- 16:17Speaker 1: the Niners have had more injuries than other teams on average.
- 16:21Speaker 1: They're in the upper percentile for injuries. And it is
- 16:24Speaker 1: a violent game, and human beings are participating. Last I checked,
- 16:27Speaker 1: in a couple of years, we won't have to worry
- 16:29Speaker 1: about this because they'll be cyborgs, and the cyborgs will
- 16:32Speaker 1: be out there in, that'say, But blaming a substation is
- 16:35Speaker 1: kind of like blaming your toaster for burning the toast
- 16:38Speaker 1: while you were sleepwalking and you were wandering around like
- 16:42Speaker 1: a zombie in the kitchen. Now the extra zany part,
- 16:46Speaker 1: and this is the part which you cannot ignore, is,
- 16:48Speaker 1: even though it's pretty much been debunked, the theory that
- 16:52Speaker 1: the Niners facility is responsible for the injuries that are
- 16:56Speaker 1: taking place here, the truth does not match her. When
- 17:01Speaker 1: people start believing this, when the root of belief takes over,
- 17:05Speaker 1: like if the people in the locker room or people
- 17:08Speaker 1: around the NFL that could end up going to the
- 17:10Speaker 1: forty nine ers believe the legend, it becomes their reality.
- 17:14Speaker 1: Is we like to say, the man who shot Liberty Valance.
- 17:16Speaker 1: When the legend becomes the fact, you print the legend.
- 17:19Speaker 1: So it is a bit of an issue. And knowing
- 17:24Speaker 1: how expensive real estate is in the Bay Area, good luck.
- 17:26Speaker 1: I'm sure the Niners will just find a play. Maybe
- 17:28Speaker 1: they'll move to Fresno and get something in Fresno and
- 17:31Speaker 1: practice there. That'll go go well. Yes, it is the
- 17:35Speaker 1: Ben Mahlor Show. If you'd like to be part, you
- 17:37Speaker 1: can join us right now at eight seven seven ninety
- 17:39Speaker 1: nine on Fox. That's eight seven seven nine nine six
- 17:43Speaker 1: sixty three sixty nine. Also on ex at Ben Mahlor,
- 17:48Speaker 1: the big news of the overnight Kyle Tucker, who is that.
- 17:51Speaker 1: That's a baseball player, and he's gonna get sixty million
- 17:55Speaker 1: dollars per years. It's a good amount of money. That's
- 17:59Speaker 1: a that's a fair amount. But not just the sixty
- 18:01Speaker 1: million dollars a year. We are told also there's some
- 18:04Speaker 1: little things dripping in here on the Kyle Tucker deal
- 18:09Speaker 1: with the Dodgers. And Tucker also will be getting a
- 18:14Speaker 1: sixty four million dollars signing bonus. Of course, it sounds impressive,
- 18:19Speaker 1: but after California taxes and the People's Republic of California
- 18:23Speaker 1: and Los Angeles, Kyle Tucker will walk away with two
- 18:26Speaker 1: dollars and seventy three cents. So that's a good luck
- 18:29Speaker 1: on that. But hey, it starts out at sixty four million,
- 18:32Speaker 1: and then you got to pay for this that, you
- 18:34Speaker 1: know that and the other thing, and so there you go.
- 18:36Speaker 1: All right, it's the Ben Mather Show. We'll take your calls.

- 20:54Speaker 1: in the court of sports radios. Please act accordingly as
- 21:00Speaker 1: we talk from football this hour. We also you apped
- 21:03Speaker 1: about the big baseball news the night as Kyle Tucker
- 21:07Speaker 1: goes to the Dodgers and one year of Kyle Tucker
- 21:11Speaker 1: is the equivalent to seventy percent of the Marlins payroll
- 21:17Speaker 1: the Dodgers. Also, if you want, I got a bunch
- 21:19Speaker 1: of fun facts here the Dodgers. How much guaranteed money
- 21:22Speaker 1: have do they have on salary. They have guaranteed money
- 21:26Speaker 1: paid out for two point one billion they have, so
- 21:31Speaker 1: it's things are going well. They have eight players now,
- 21:34Speaker 1: eight players on the Dodgers roster that have contracts worth
- 21:39Speaker 1: over one hundred million dollars.
- 21:44Speaker 5: Fun fact, does that mean that they are technically indebted
- 21:47Speaker 5: to themselves?
- 21:49Speaker 1: That means they make so much money they're still going
- 21:51Speaker 1: to make a profit even though they're spending all this money.
- 21:54Speaker 5: Yah, but those contracts go out for decades, don't they like,
- 21:57Speaker 5: they don't have to technically pay them off for a
- 21:59Speaker 5: long time.
- 22:00Speaker 1: Well, no, that's the yeah. You know the thing about this.
- 22:03Speaker 1: People better enjoy this because eventually, at some point, the
- 22:06Speaker 1: googen Heinm group, which owns the Dodgers, will most likely
- 22:08Speaker 1: sell the Dodgers once they start exactly and then they'll claim, well,
- 22:14Speaker 1: we can't spend any money because we've got all this
- 22:16Speaker 1: We got all this money, we gotta spend. We gotta
- 22:18Speaker 1: pay a tony fifty million dollars a year to sit
- 22:21Speaker 1: on his ass in Japan when he's still fifty years
- 22:24Speaker 1: old or whatever. So I was like, what are you
- 22:25Speaker 1: gonna do. Let's go to the phones and we'll say
- 22:28Speaker 1: a load to any meenie miney moe. Let's say a
- 22:30Speaker 1: load to Adam, who's in the Pacific Northwest. What's going

- 22:36Speaker 6: Okay, I'm turning this right now. Boston is going back
- 22:41Speaker 6: to playoffs. I don't think they'll win again. You know
- 22:43Speaker 6: how they lost last time. I'm guaranteeing you, right now,
- 22:47Speaker 6: right here, Boston's going back.
- 22:51Speaker 1: You stayed on hold for this call?
- 22:54Speaker 6: Yes, I did.

- 26:35Speaker 1: I gotta know.
- 26:36Speaker 5: I'm trying to bring Coop along too. But he's like,
- 26:39Speaker 5: I don't want to drive with you, l Arda.
- 26:41Speaker 1: Why not? It's that's not what I said.
- 26:43Speaker 5: It's practically what you said.
- 26:44Speaker 7: It's depends I'm not special enough to get to get
- 26:48Speaker 7: to go to these things.
- 26:50Speaker 1: No, you could, if you want. You can get in
- 26:52Speaker 1: if you want. You just I know, you just talk
- 26:54Speaker 1: to certain people. They'll get you in. Anybody's seriously, if
- 26:56Speaker 1: you work here, you can get in. So the only
- 27:00Speaker 1: problem driving from La to San Francisco. So there's two
- 27:02Speaker 1: ways to go. There's hours, well, there's a beautiful well
- 27:05Speaker 1: that's one part part of it. But there's one way,
- 27:07Speaker 1: which is beautiful on Pacific Coast Highway twelve hours exactly.
- 27:12Speaker 1: Or you can drive through where all you smell for
- 27:15Speaker 1: about four hours is cow crap.
- 27:18Speaker 7: They just opened that back up though, for the first
- 27:20Speaker 7: time since like like the last like four years of
- 27:23Speaker 7: PCH is fully connected until.
- 27:25Speaker 1: There's another rock slide tomorrow and they closed for another
- 27:28Speaker 1: two years and all that. But yeah, big near Big Sir,
- 27:31Speaker 1: they always close it.
- 27:32Speaker 5: Have you done that drive, Ben?
- 27:33Speaker 1: I you know I haven't done. I have gone up
- 27:35Speaker 1: to Big Sir, but I haven't gone all the way
- 27:37Speaker 1: like past it.
- 27:38Speaker 5: So yeah, so I thought for one summer coming back
- 27:41Speaker 5: down with a boyfriend at one time. We started in
- 27:44Speaker 5: San Francisco and we took that down road back and
- 27:47Speaker 5: I was excited until I realized there was no turn
- 27:50Speaker 5: off points and that road is so windy. I have
- 27:54Speaker 5: never been carsick before, and I swear to goodness my
- 27:57Speaker 5: face was green.
- 27:58Speaker 1: Well I got even better stories. So I was driving
- 28:01Speaker 1: the Mallamobile a few years back in right Nearmobile, the
- 28:05Speaker 1: big sur area there and the car broke down right
- 28:10Speaker 1: on that little who no so then, but it gets
- 28:14Speaker 1: even better. The cell phone there's no cell phone service
- 28:16Speaker 1: where it broke down.
- 28:17Speaker 2: Stop.
- 28:18Speaker 1: So we were at the mercy of waiting for a
- 28:20Speaker 1: good samari and then to help us out to get
- 28:22Speaker 1: the car. How long did you have to wait? It's
- 28:26Speaker 1: a good amount of time. I don't remember exactly how
- 28:27Speaker 1: I'm it was a fair amount of time, so it
- 28:29Speaker 1: was not good anyway, fillmore, Mike, I were You're very upset,
- 28:32Speaker 1: probably right now because you're not talking, so go ahead,
- 28:34Speaker 1: talk fell more, Mike, please.
- 28:36Speaker 2: Nah. I love it, I love it, I love it.
- 28:38Speaker 2: We are engaged me in the conversation because he usually
- 28:40Speaker 2: cut me off. But it's all us. Oh girl from
- 28:45Speaker 2: Berkley should be calling because that heel or that area
- 28:51Speaker 2: has been around for like thirty years, so it's kind
- 28:53Speaker 2: of like a myth. It's it's almost like an urban legend.
- 28:58Speaker 2: Harball teams Harbor had a whole heat over there and
- 29:01Speaker 2: he would train up the heel or Mike Singletary, I
- 29:04Speaker 2: can't remember who it was. I think it was Singletary
- 29:06Speaker 2: or Horriball, but anyway, it's been around for thirty years,
- 29:09Speaker 2: so Jerry Rice really didn't get into it till later
- 29:12Speaker 2: in his career. Joe Montana got tooken out by somebody
- 29:17Speaker 2: of the New York Giants. Take it back out?
- 29:21Speaker 1: Yeah, no, I agree for those who miss it with
- 29:24Speaker 1: some of the Niner guys are complaining about this power
- 29:27Speaker 1: plant that's or not a power but it's just an
- 29:29Speaker 1: electrical thing right near the practice facility and they're complaining
- 29:32Speaker 1: about it and saying it's causing injuries.
- 29:34Speaker 2: And no, no, what they need to do. So if
- 29:39Speaker 2: you know maclan Celebrini, macclan Celebrini, he's a he's a
- 29:44Speaker 2: famous San Jose Shark player, one of them. He's a phenom. Basically,
- 29:50Speaker 2: he's like a young cross be out of Pennsylvania. Anyway.
- 29:56Speaker 2: His dad is the trainer for the Goda State Warriors.
- 30:00Speaker 2: What I interested, you get the training staff for the
- 30:04Speaker 2: Golden State Warriors and before put them on the forty
- 30:08Speaker 2: nine ers training staff and switch training stabs because obviously
- 30:11Speaker 2: I don't know what's going on. It's nothing in the water,
- 30:15Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying. I don't know what's going on.
- 30:18Speaker 2: I'm not injured. I'm perfectly fine.

- 32:13Speaker 1: put the booze down? Come on, what's wrong with you? Know,
- 32:15Speaker 1: spadinas shame on you? It is the Ben Mallor show.
- 32:21Speaker 1: Is there a witch doctor in so several of you
- 32:24Speaker 1: sent me this story? I think your Foemi was one
- 32:27Speaker 1: in h at least one other person I forget, But
- 32:30Speaker 1: a Chicago Bears fan has opened up their wallet, more
- 32:34Speaker 1: likely just typed in their credit card information and paid
- 32:39Speaker 1: for a witch doctor, a witch on Etsy to cast
- 32:44Speaker 1: a good luck spell on Caleb Williams against the Rams.
- 32:50Speaker 1: Turning to the power of witchcraft. I gotta tell you
- 32:55Speaker 1: we gotta get we gotta get Andrew. And Andrew should
- 32:58Speaker 1: get in on this. And that's a that's a good hustle, Andrew.
- 33:01Speaker 1: You should get it, like get an Etsy account and
- 33:03Speaker 1: then people will pay you and you could put like
- 33:06Speaker 1: witches spells on these people and then you you're good
- 33:09Speaker 1: to go. How much does that cost? If I wanted
- 33:13Speaker 1: to get a witch's spell put on someone? How much
- 33:15Speaker 1: would that cost?
- 33:16Speaker 5: It depends on your level of witchery. So like Donald
- 33:18Speaker 5: Trump has his witches, but then you could also get
- 33:21Speaker 5: like regular witches on Etsy for like fifteen dollars an hour?
- 33:25Speaker 7: What you need?
- 33:26Speaker 1: What if I just want one spell?
- 33:27Speaker 2: Like?
- 33:27Speaker 1: What do I wanted to put a spell on like
- 33:30Speaker 1: the Bears coach Ben Johnson? Like how much was that?
- 33:33Speaker 7: You know?
- 33:33Speaker 5: You wouldn't just want one spell? You would want to
- 33:35Speaker 5: like a cluster of five witches that could really put
- 33:38Speaker 5: a good hacks on.
- 33:38Speaker 1: That dabbled in witchcraft?
- 33:40Speaker 2: Have you?
- 33:41Speaker 5: May I read a book or two?
- 33:42Speaker 1: Really interesting?
- 33:44Speaker 5: As a female, it is my obligation.
- 33:46Speaker 1: Really women. Do all women love witches? Is that they.
- 33:50Speaker 5: Should if they understand their finity?

- 38:09Speaker 7: Patriots left tackle Will Campbell did not have a great
- 38:11Speaker 7: game against the Chargers. He allowed several pressures, one of
- 38:14Speaker 7: which turned into a strip sack of Drake May. Campbell
- 38:16Speaker 7: said he can't worry about last week and just needs
- 38:18Speaker 7: to move on and keep playing. He'll have an even
- 38:20Speaker 7: tougher test against the Texans.
- 38:22Speaker 1: Ben. Should Pat's fans be worried? Well, yeah, the guy
- 38:27Speaker 1: was their first round draft pick. He's supposed to be
- 38:29Speaker 1: the senate and forget it tackle. He used to leave
- 38:31Speaker 1: him there and if he can't play in the playoffs
- 38:34Speaker 1: at a high level like this is this is a
- 38:37Speaker 1: big deal. He goes out there and gets spit roasted
- 38:39Speaker 1: and eviscerated by the Texans defense. Then what's gonna happen
- 38:43Speaker 1: on sports radio and on social media. He's gonna be
- 38:45Speaker 1: disemboweled for the rest of the offseason. So yeah, get

- 39:15Speaker 7: Draft on the advice of Nick Saban. He was offered
- 39:18Speaker 7: a lot to stay in school, but Saban said, take
- 39:20Speaker 7: money out of the equation and do what you would
- 39:21Speaker 7: want to if no one offered you anything. Ben Saban
- 39:24Speaker 7: given good advice.
- 39:25Speaker 1: Uh No, I think Simpsons is gonna be bad. He
- 39:29Speaker 1: first round pick, He'll be okay. I don't think he
