- 0:13Speaker 1: the Sixers? Also, do you believe the conspiracy theory that
- 0:17Speaker 1: the Sixers are going to shut down Joel Embiid for
- 0:20Speaker 1: lottery balls? We'll discuss that. And can you put in
- 0:23Speaker 1: the words what the latest report about the weight loss
- 0:27Speaker 1: the lack of weight on Zion Williamson actually means apparently
- 0:32Speaker 1: he's lost a fair amount of weight. We'll talk about
- 0:34Speaker 1: that as well. Coming your way right now, say hello
- 0:37Speaker 1: to my little friend. It's our number two. The Breakfast
- 0:41Speaker 1: of Champions has struck again. Welcome in the beginning of
- 0:48Speaker 1: another hour of the Ben Mahler Show. We are in

- 1:37Speaker 1: that we count up to ten thousand. So our lead
- 1:40Speaker 1: this hour is from the Delaware Valley. We go to Philadelphia,
- 1:44Speaker 1: big injury update on the woe begone woebegone the Philadelphia
- 1:50Speaker 1: basketball team. If you have not heard by now, perhaps not.
- 1:54Speaker 1: News came down over the weekend and we are told
- 1:58Speaker 1: the constantly hobble Joel Nbad Joel Embiid and the Sixers
- 2:04Speaker 1: considering quote alternative options for treating his bum left knee
- 2:13Speaker 1: alleged lady Yeah, so Scham's Sharonia who replaced quote. He
- 2:20Speaker 1: tells us that Embiid is considering alternative treatment as meth
- 2:25Speaker 1: is like those pesky injections have not not helped, So
- 2:31Speaker 1: Embad's messed up. There's a lot of chatter that it
- 2:34Speaker 1: will be turnout the last the parties over and they're
- 2:40Speaker 1: gonna shut him down for the rest of the NBA season.
- 2:46Speaker 1: So let us discuss the question, what does this latest
- 2:51Speaker 1: revelation in the Joel Embiids story from the seventy six ers.
- 2:55Speaker 1: What does it sound like to you? All right? So
- 2:58Speaker 1: I've got nursery R, I'm civil war and Times Square billboard,
- 3:05Speaker 1: and we will combine all of these things together, and
- 3:08Speaker 1: we were going to leave the galaxy. Is what we're
- 3:11Speaker 1: going to. You're gonna literally leave the galaxy, all right?
- 3:13Speaker 1: So Number I said numb, that's right, all right? So
- 3:20Speaker 1: Joel Embiid is the be word, not that bee word.
- 3:23Speaker 1: He's broken. The man is broken. Joel Embiid. He's living
- 3:30Speaker 1: the testimonial to this era of the modern basketball load management.
- 3:35Speaker 1: He is the in many ways, the poster child of
- 3:39Speaker 1: load management. Joel Embiid and what fools gold it turns
- 3:45Speaker 1: out to be the Sixers ever since Embiid arrived on
- 3:48Speaker 1: the scene have babied and being Remember he left Kansas
- 3:51Speaker 1: to go to the NBA. He wasn't ready to go
- 3:53Speaker 1: right away. Load management. Your body's got some issues there.
- 3:57Speaker 1: So they've handled him softly with kid gloves ever since
- 4:01Speaker 1: he got to the NBA, and it's been injury management.
- 4:05Speaker 1: And now he can't play back to back games. He
- 4:08Speaker 1: hasn't played back to back games in a while, and
- 4:11Speaker 1: that's just draconian to have to you work back to
- 4:14Speaker 1: back this. I should tell my bosses I cannot my voice.
- 4:17Speaker 1: If I have to do talk radio back to back this,
- 4:20Speaker 1: I'm gonna get learyngitis. What about the talk show host?
- 4:25Speaker 1: It is unnatural to talk for four hours a night,
- 4:29Speaker 1: every night. I am putting my vocal cords at risk.
- 4:34Speaker 1: I think we should do one show and then take
- 4:35Speaker 1: a night off, and then do another show, and no
- 4:38Speaker 1: more than like three or four shows a week. I
- 4:40Speaker 1: think that's the way we should do it. Load management.
- 4:43Speaker 1: It's worked so well for Joel mb right, it's been great,
- 4:46Speaker 1: been wonderful. Gets that sponge bath on the Sixers on
- 4:49Speaker 1: the regular, Well, it's the old line. You give him
- 4:52Speaker 1: an inch, they'll take a mile, right. So the Sixers
- 4:54Speaker 1: are that whatever we can, we're gonna We have all
- 4:56Speaker 1: the nerds, the medical nerds that are gonna tell us
- 4:59Speaker 1: exactly when to rest Joel Embiid so he'll be able
- 5:02Speaker 1: to play at a high level. And what has that
- 5:05Speaker 1: gotten them? All roads lead to Rome, but not Jim Rome.
- 5:10Speaker 1: Philadelphia has a modern day. They've created a modern day nursery. Rhymes.
- 5:15Speaker 1: Joel Embiid is Humpty dumpty. He's humpty dumpty that's Joel Embiid.
- 5:20Speaker 1: It's called like it is here, and it's a matter
- 5:21Speaker 1: of when, not if Joel Embiid gets shut down, and
- 5:26Speaker 1: it will happen. Embiid is in many ways the milkman.
- 5:30Speaker 1: Not like Mike the Milkman, or Steve the Milkman, or
- 5:33Speaker 1: Jim the Milkman. He's Joel the Milkman, and he ages
- 5:38Speaker 1: like milk, like a carton of milk he does. He's
- 5:42Speaker 1: gonna turn thirty one soon. Joel Embiid should be in
- 5:45Speaker 1: the prime of his career, and yet he doesn't play
- 5:48Speaker 1: that much. And when he does play, it's like going
- 5:51Speaker 1: down to the YMCA and watching a dude in his
- 5:53Speaker 1: sixties try to run up and down the court. Right,
- 5:55Speaker 1: he can't move. Latterly, it's painful to watch him plotting
- 5:59Speaker 1: up the court. Uhly, He's a liability, an absolute liability. Defensively,
- 6:07Speaker 1: he saves his energy for offense. Em Bead has managed
- 6:10Speaker 1: to be able to play more home games somehow than
- 6:14Speaker 1: road games. He also seems to always get hurt against
- 6:18Speaker 1: better opponents and not able to play, but he's usually
- 6:21Speaker 1: able to go against the creamy soft opponents in the NBA,
- 6:25Speaker 1: and you look at teams that have played the Sixers
- 6:29Speaker 1: recently in games em Beads played, and they realized what
- 6:32Speaker 1: a liability he is defensively, where they just run the
- 6:35Speaker 1: pick and roll and you get a basket. You get
- 6:38Speaker 1: a basket, you get a basket, and it's an absolute
- 6:43Speaker 1: poop fest when you toss in the fact Embiid he
- 6:45Speaker 1: got into it with a Philadelphia columnist to call them
- 6:48Speaker 1: beat out on his lack of ability to stay healthy,
- 6:54Speaker 1: lack of ability to play, because it's not just the injuries.
- 6:57Speaker 1: Say he's hurt now, but even when he's been deemed healthy,
- 7:01Speaker 1: he still misses work. There's guilty of truancy on a
- 7:05Speaker 1: regular basis, and he just can't depend on him. The
- 7:08Speaker 1: worst thing you can say about some mean you're not dependable.
- 7:11Speaker 1: Joel Ebid's not dependable now page two. There cannot be
- 7:15Speaker 1: a story in modern sports without some kind of deep
- 7:19Speaker 1: state conspiracy. So the conspiracy theory is that Joel Ebiid
- 7:24Speaker 1: could absolutely continue to play in Philadelphia this season. The
- 7:27Speaker 1: rest of the way, however, the Sixers are going to
- 7:31Speaker 1: shut him down for lottery balls. That Joel Ebiad's being
- 7:35Speaker 1: shut down for lottery balls. So do you believe the
- 7:40Speaker 1: conspiracy that the Sixers are positioning this claiming that Embiid
- 7:46Speaker 1: needs a procedure, but he could have waited until after
- 7:49Speaker 1: the season to have it, but they want to do
- 7:51Speaker 1: it now to ensure that they end up getting those
- 7:56Speaker 1: extra lottery balls. So you can't totally dismiss this when
- 8:00Speaker 1: it comes to the Sixers, because the mix in Philly
- 8:03Speaker 1: is equal parts bleach and ammonia. And you know from
- 8:07Speaker 1: when you were in school, if you mix bleach and ammonia,
- 8:10Speaker 1: it causes this hawxic gas, right, this nasty toxic gas.
- 8:17Speaker 1: It becomes a big problem there. And so the Sixers,
- 8:21Speaker 1: I believe, are sixteen games under five hundred. They've lost
- 8:24Speaker 1: nine of their last ten, seven in a row. They
- 8:28Speaker 1: just lost to a dog Food Nets team over the weekend.
- 8:32Speaker 1: And you've got their big pickup from the Clippers podcast,
- 8:35Speaker 1: p who is better at getting clicks online than baskets
- 8:40Speaker 1: on the court at this point in his career. And
- 8:42Speaker 1: then you realize that the entire mantra of the franchise
- 8:47Speaker 1: is trust the process. Well, what is the process? The
- 8:49Speaker 1: process is tanking to try to get better players in
- 8:53Speaker 1: the draft. And I said, well, all those all those
- 8:54Speaker 1: people are gone. It's true, like Sam Hinkey and a
- 8:57Speaker 1: that group has gone. But what is Joel and Beat's nickname?
- 9:01Speaker 1: Trust the Process? His nickname is the Process, right, And
- 9:05Speaker 1: so you're like, the temptation is there, and this is
- 9:09Speaker 1: the point in the calendar. It's past the All Star break.
- 9:12Speaker 1: You figure you are what your record says you are,
- 9:15Speaker 1: and you blow and you're looking ahead. You're like, well,
- 9:18Speaker 1: you know, we're not that far away. Only got a
- 9:20Speaker 1: couple of months to go here in the NBA regular season,
- 9:24Speaker 1: and why don't we play a game that originally originated.
- 9:27Speaker 1: It's the modern versions based on like the Civil War,
- 9:31Speaker 1: Capture the Flag. Will play a modern version of Capture
- 9:35Speaker 1: the Flag, which in basketball parlance means the pride of Maine.
- 9:39Speaker 1: As it's all about the duke forward Cooper Flag, who
- 9:44Speaker 1: is projected to be the number one overall in the draft.
- 9:48Speaker 1: Scouts have been drooling, they want the flag. The flag
- 9:52Speaker 1: is up. They would love to get their hands on
- 9:54Speaker 1: this guy, being compared because all the greats and I'm
- 9:57Speaker 1: always skeptical about that, but being to Scottie Pippen and
- 10:02Speaker 1: Kevin Garnett and yeah, we'll see it when he actually
- 10:04Speaker 1: gets to the NBA. But the Sixers have the sixth
- 10:08Speaker 1: worst record in Pro bouncy ball. They're the sixth worst team,
- 10:13Speaker 1: and if they fully collapse and are committed to the
- 10:16Speaker 1: tank the rest of the season, they likely would only
- 10:20Speaker 1: move up one, maybe two more slots over the final
- 10:24Speaker 1: twenty six games or so of the regular season. All right,
- 10:27Speaker 1: final point, we pivot away from Philadelphia. We go now
- 10:32Speaker 1: to the Bayou and the shores of the Mighty Mississippi
- 10:35Speaker 1: River in Louisiana, where Zion Williamson filling up the content
- 10:41Speaker 1: kitty here on the Ben mal Show, I read that
- 10:43Speaker 1: the Pelicans stars Zion Williamson currently weighs two hundred and
- 10:48Speaker 1: sixty four pounds. Two hundred and sixty four pounds. They're
- 10:52Speaker 1: bragging about that. Who are they? We'll get to that
- 10:55Speaker 1: in a minute, but they're bragging this is the lightest
- 10:57Speaker 1: he has weighed since he entered the NBA six years ago.
- 11:03Speaker 1: That this is the light of design's been since twenty nineteen. Now,
- 11:07Speaker 1: Williamson is listed on the NBA propaganda website at two
- 11:12Speaker 1: hundred and eighty four pounds, so he's dropped twenty pounds
- 11:15Speaker 1: below that. But there were reports he was actually like
- 11:17Speaker 1: three hundred and fifty pounds. So that's the case. He's
- 11:20Speaker 1: actually lost like seventy pounds, and so he's whatever the case,
- 11:24Speaker 1: he's dropped a significant amount of weight. Can you put
- 11:27Speaker 1: into words, because it's a talk show, can you put
- 11:30Speaker 1: into words what this report about Zion Williamson losing weight
- 11:35Speaker 1: actually means. So the way I interpret this using my
- 11:39Speaker 1: super secret decoder ring is it's like a Times square
- 11:43Speaker 1: billboard that you're playing. And I like to play this
- 11:46Speaker 1: game a lot. You're playing the parlor game of who
- 11:49Speaker 1: leaked the story? You always ask the same two questions
- 11:51Speaker 1: you ask. We start with who stands the game from
- 11:55Speaker 1: the league? That's the first question, and then why leak? Now?
- 11:59Speaker 1: By the errol both points to Zion Williamson and someone
- 12:03Speaker 1: from his posse wreaking the story there because he gains
- 12:08Speaker 1: positive spin and people say, oh, now he's committed to basketball. Now,
- 12:12Speaker 1: Zion only took him six years, but now he's committed
- 12:15Speaker 1: to basketball. He's in shape. He said, why he's in shape?
- 12:19Speaker 1: And you leak? Now? You put that billboard out there
- 12:22Speaker 1: right now, that social media post because you're marketing Zion
- 12:27Speaker 1: Williamson as a trade entity. This summer that hey, you know,
- 12:34Speaker 1: he can relocate Zion, and Zion would like to like
- 12:38Speaker 1: to go somewhere else, and hey, I'm available and I'm
- 12:41Speaker 1: in shape now, and what about me? But he has
- 12:45Speaker 1: been nothing but an enigma, big tease that doesn't actually
- 12:49Speaker 1: consistently perform, much like Joelle embiid Embid's better when he
- 12:53Speaker 1: plays than Zion Williamson. But you get the point here,
- 12:56Speaker 1: and the Pelicans would be fools, absolute fools to promote
- 13:00Speaker 1: that he's in shape now because they already look like
- 13:02Speaker 1: the village idiot, the New Orleans Pelicans by their decision
- 13:07Speaker 1: to give him the Max contract when he had not
- 13:10Speaker 1: earned it. Real dufices in New Orleans. There, it's nothing
- 13:15Speaker 1: to brag about. Yeah, we signed this guy a couple
- 13:17Speaker 1: of years ago. Now he's in shape. You already gave
- 13:21Speaker 1: him one hundred and ninety seven million dollar max contract
- 13:25Speaker 1: and now you're bragging that he's in shape. I mean,
- 13:27Speaker 1: come on, hello. Yeah. And now that we are told
- 13:32Speaker 1: that he has to maintain physical fitness otherwise he's going
- 13:37Speaker 1: to lose lose some cash. Here in fact, that we're
- 13:40Speaker 1: told that Zion must keep his combined weight and body
- 13:44Speaker 1: fat percentage below two hundred ninety five pounds to guarantee
- 13:49Speaker 1: that's weight and body fat below two ninety five to
- 13:52Speaker 1: guarantee twenty percent of his salary for next NBA season.
- 13:59Speaker 1: So there's a final Angiel element to this. Now in
- 14:02Speaker 1: our world, we follow the teachings of Chris Rock that
- 14:06Speaker 1: great comedy bit years ago that you don't get credit
- 14:09Speaker 1: for doing things you're supposed to do. Like, if you're
- 14:11Speaker 1: a professional athlete, you're selling your body. That's what you do.
- 14:14Speaker 1: You sell it in a different way than a hooker,
- 14:17Speaker 1: but you're selling your body, and you have to stay
- 14:19Speaker 1: in shape. There's some kind of shape that you have
- 14:21Speaker 1: to stay in and and so Zion now is apparently
- 14:24Speaker 1: in shape, and let me thinks he's the one here.
- 14:27Speaker 1: People around him leaked that in an effort to get
- 14:29Speaker 1: some positive politlicity and then potentially a relocation situation. All right,
- 14:35Speaker 1: if you want to be part of the show, you
- 14:36Speaker 1: can join us right now. There's a line open for
- 14:39Speaker 1: you at eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox. That's

- 14:49Speaker 1: If you're just jumping on the Red Eye flight this hour,
- 14:52Speaker 1: in hour four, this hour two. But in hour four
- 14:55Speaker 1: we will have a new game show. We're gonna beta
- 14:58Speaker 1: test a new game. Excited about that. We'll see how
- 15:02Speaker 1: it goes here. Spend some time, valuable free time over
- 15:06Speaker 1: the weekend playing around with this, so we'll have some
- 15:09Speaker 1: fun with that, and I'll be coming up an hour
- 15:11Speaker 1: number four straight ahead. A pet peeve of mine has returned,
- 15:16Speaker 1: and the ridiculousness, the over the top absurdity of this
- 15:20Speaker 1: has continued as one of my pet peeves in sports.
- 15:23Speaker 1: It has happened again. It happened over the weekend. I'll
- 15:25Speaker 1: explain I'm being intentionally vague. We'll get to that and
- 15:29Speaker 1: we'll take your calls at eight seven, seven ninety nine

- 17:04Speaker 1: guy from San Jose right since says your show is hilarious.
- 17:07Speaker 1: My man, listen to it every night. There you go
- 17:11Speaker 1: security work listening to the truth the dawn. I look
- 17:13Speaker 1: at that, I'm a dollar. He didn't sign his name though,
- 17:17Speaker 1: So MPP, are you down with me? Ferg Dog writes
- 17:21Speaker 1: in from that winter wonderland in Fullerton. He says, can
- 17:27Speaker 1: we get an update on your scrabble game against Alf?
- 17:30Speaker 1: Are you still beating the stuffing out of him thanks
- 17:33Speaker 1: to your superior sadillback college education. Let me check here.
- 17:37Speaker 1: So I am playing a couple of listeners at scrabble
- 17:41Speaker 1: and I futs around with that randomly open it up
- 17:46Speaker 1: right now, we'll see because the listeners always right, and
- 17:48Speaker 1: he wants to know an update, and I'll give him
- 17:50Speaker 1: an update. Let's see, ALF, I am up by about
- 17:55Speaker 1: two hundred and twenty points on ALF games all amost
- 18:00Speaker 1: all over and Noah, I don't know happened to Noah
- 18:02Speaker 1: in Austin, but Noah did hook us up with the
- 18:05Speaker 1: He said he felt shame that Lorena was getting all
- 18:08Speaker 1: the gifts from all the dudes, sending lorain of food
- 18:11Speaker 1: and all that, so he hooked me up with a
- 18:13Speaker 1: Bucky's Bobblehead mascot.
- 18:16Speaker 3: That's really cool.
- 18:17Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it's pretty pretty neat. So I have that,
- 18:20Speaker 1: although I think I feel like we should. I feel
- 18:23Speaker 1: like I should leave it in the studio like it,
- 18:24Speaker 1: but I'm worried someone will steal it if we leave
- 18:26Speaker 1: it in the studio, well, because people steal stuff there.
- 18:28Speaker 1: They're very mean here and they steal stuff. So do
- 18:30Speaker 1: you think it'll be okay if we leave. I'm fine
- 18:33Speaker 1: leaving it here. I don't have a problem. I'm here
- 18:35Speaker 1: most of the time, So we could leave the BUCkies
- 18:37Speaker 1: mascot here unless you believe that someone will either a
- 18:41Speaker 1: damage it or be steal it, and then I would
- 18:44Speaker 1: take it and just keep it at the mallor mansion
- 18:47Speaker 1: the home studio.
- 18:48Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know if I have faith in the
- 18:49Speaker 3: people here.
- 18:50Speaker 1: Yeah. See, that's what I'm worried about, like play catch
- 18:54Speaker 1: with it or something like that.
- 18:55Speaker 4: Or bubble it too hard.
- 18:57Speaker 1: Yeah, like you know, kind of flick with her fists
- 19:00Speaker 1: or something like that, and then it becomes a problem.
- 19:03Speaker 1: So uh but yeah, that's the I'm surprised ferg Dog
- 19:06Speaker 1: hasn't gotten up there on the on the scrabble. I
- 19:08Speaker 1: thought Fergie would be on there to to play against me,
- 19:11Speaker 1: but he is not so bad job by you. What
- 19:15Speaker 1: else do we have? Page down? I did see Sean
- 19:20Speaker 1: Sirius Sean former radio guy who is I call him
- 19:24Speaker 1: non sequitur guy because Sirias Sean. He sends things that
- 19:28Speaker 1: aren't related to anything. We're talking about complete non sequiturs,
- 19:32Speaker 1: which is just outstanding. We'll go back to the phones
- 19:35Speaker 1: and always dangerous. It's Russian roulette. Let's see here, eeny meenie,

- 20:08Speaker 1: I find it so soothing, right, it's great.
- 20:12Speaker 4: Inspiring.
- 20:13Speaker 1: Let me thinking about You're about to fall asleep, and
- 20:15Speaker 1: it's like, what do I need to do? Let me
- 20:17Speaker 1: call an overnight talk radio show, and then I'll fall
- 20:20Speaker 1: asleep and I'll be on hold. And of course Joe's
- 20:23Speaker 1: a Raiders fans, so he's probably done that a lot
- 20:26Speaker 1: on Sunday afternoons watching the Raiders play. Just zoned out.
- 20:31Speaker 1: I don't hear him snoring right now, though, Hey, Joe,
- 20:35Speaker 1: you there, Joe. Mhmm, do do do do do do? Do?
- 20:40Speaker 1: Do do do do do? Oh no, he's dead. Oh no,

- 20:48Speaker 1: Joe slights out. Well, if he's not gonna snore, we
- 20:50Speaker 1: got to move on to the next guy. Play one
- 20:54Speaker 1: on the radio. Well, that's weird. He was really snoring
- 20:57Speaker 1: good and then it's it and then just stop you

- 21:03Speaker 1: put them on hold.
- 21:03Speaker 5: There.
- 21:03Speaker 1: This is sleeping Joe, sleepy Joe in Idaho and I'm
- 21:09Speaker 1: a poet and I don't even know. Let's say hello
- 21:11Speaker 1: to Jay, who's in Cincinnati. What's going on? Jay? Welcome?
- 21:15Speaker 1: It's the Ben Mahler show up all night every single night.
- 21:20Speaker 5: What's up? Then you're post a boy Joe would be
- 21:25Speaker 5: for uh looad bands? It you order to revise that?
- 21:32Speaker 1: Why would I? Why would I revise that?
- 21:35Speaker 5: Do you know where started in the NBA? Who started it?
- 21:39Speaker 5: And why?
- 21:41Speaker 1: Well you want to go through Greg Popovitch or whatever
- 21:44Speaker 1: you can, But I would argue it's right right now.
- 21:46Speaker 1: It's a Joe l NB. The guy's made. He's missed
- 21:49Speaker 1: half his career and made one hundred and something million dollars.
- 21:54Speaker 5: A boy for for load bands. It is Kawhi Leonard. Well.
- 21:57Speaker 1: The difference between Joel and being kis Kui was a
- 22:00Speaker 1: great player and then decided to do load management. But
- 22:04Speaker 1: the difference is Joel Embiid was not a great player
- 22:07Speaker 1: and did load management from the moment he got in
- 22:09Speaker 1: the MBA. Kawhi Leonard early in his career the poster
- 22:13Speaker 1: you're you're wrong, but you can be wrong. It's okay
- 22:15Speaker 1: to be wrong. A lot of people wrong. You're wrong.
- 22:17Speaker 1: I just say you're wrong. Who the hell's Cooper?
- 22:21Speaker 5: You're a bias Clipper fan.
- 22:23Speaker 1: Not a biased Clipper fan. Joel Embiid is his entire career.
- 22:28Speaker 1: Kawhi Leonard early in his career actually played played a
- 22:31Speaker 1: lot early in his career. That's something that developed later
- 22:34Speaker 1: on in his career. Joel Embiid his entire to understand,
- 22:38Speaker 1: To understand Joel Embiid his entire career has been not
- 22:43Speaker 1: playing like That's what he's known for. Kawhi Leonard at
- 22:46Speaker 1: one point did actually play.
- 22:48Speaker 4: Yeah, but it wasn't load management in the beginning. For Embiid, Yes,
- 22:51Speaker 4: it was.
- 22:52Speaker 1: It was they were out of an abundance of caution.
- 22:55Speaker 1: We must rest Joel Embiid. He didn't play the first
- 22:59Speaker 1: two years the NBA. He missed the first two seasons
- 23:03Speaker 1: of the NBA, and he's pretty much every year. He's
- 23:07Speaker 1: missed about half the games, pretty much every year of
- 23:11Speaker 1: his career. Like if you look at Kawhi Leonard early
- 23:13Speaker 1: in his career with the Spurs, he actually played like
- 23:17Speaker 1: it wasn't until he went to Well at the end
- 23:19Speaker 1: of his Spurs run. There were some issues there with
- 23:21Speaker 1: Kawhi and then when he went to the Raptors. There
- 23:25Speaker 1: he actually played sixty games that year. But ever since
- 23:28Speaker 1: then it's been nothing but nonsense. I mean, he was
- 23:32Speaker 1: playing sixty five in around sixty five games, played seventy
- 23:35Speaker 1: plus games in San Antonio a couple that I was
- 23:37Speaker 1: an All Star and they won championships and he was
- 23:41Speaker 1: the Defensive Player of the Year and all that. And
- 23:43Speaker 1: then at some point along the way he decided, I'm good.
- 23:49Speaker 1: Is he gone? I think that guy's gone. He hung
- 23:52Speaker 1: on I didn't hang up on him, he must have.
- 23:53Speaker 4: I think you upset his soul.
- 23:55Speaker 1: Then I upset the guys. So this year, do you
- 23:57Speaker 1: think Joe's snoring? Let's go to Joe and idaho. I
- 23:59Speaker 1: love Joe. Hm, oh, here he is, He's alive. Joe's alive.
- 24:07Speaker 1: We'd like to learn all the affiliates downline. Joe is alive, right,
- 24:12Speaker 1: I'm gonna hang up on him because he's he's not
- 24:14Speaker 1: a good store. He's not a consistent store. And if
- 24:16Speaker 1: you want to stay on hold, you have to be
- 24:17Speaker 1: a consistent snore because if you're just snoring and then
- 24:22Speaker 1: five minutes of no snoring, it doesn't really work for
- 24:24Speaker 1: the show. Thank you. Say hello to Bobby who's in

- 27:48Speaker 1: the state of Arizona at the end of this year.
- 27:52Speaker 1: Well that's closer, still pretty far to drive, but closer
- 27:58Speaker 1: than driving to like Texas or you know, South Carolina
- 28:01Speaker 1: or something like that. So I'm such a loser. I
- 28:06Speaker 1: might actually drive to Arizona when they open it. I
- 28:08Speaker 1: think's supposed to open up around Christmas in Is it
- 28:12Speaker 1: like Goodyear Arizona or something, I forget the.
- 28:14Speaker 3: Town lights to Phoenix or something for a hundred bucks?
- 28:18Speaker 1: Is that round trip? Yeah? Do you have to pedal

- 28:22Speaker 3: It might land upside down?
- 28:24Speaker 1: Is that one of those I don't need that? Is
- 28:26Speaker 1: that that that Rob Parker Airline where you.
- 28:29Speaker 3: Know he's spirit he is a platinum Spirit member.
- 28:33Speaker 1: Yes, where you show up in your underwear.
- 28:36Speaker 3: And they know they're the ones who have the strict guidelines.
- 28:39Speaker 3: Now they're not letting go in stripper clothes anymore.
- 28:42Speaker 1: Really, they implemented a new like with the dress code
- 28:46Speaker 1: because people wearing layers of clothes or that people wearing.
- 28:50Speaker 4: Yeah, they they're trying to class up the airline a
- 28:54Speaker 4: little bit.
- 28:55Speaker 1: They don't want to be the Greyhound bus service of
- 28:56Speaker 1: the sky.
- 28:58Speaker 7: And and they've gone viral recently because they've had no
- 29:01Speaker 7: major accidents, oh get in their history.
- 29:04Speaker 1: Hope. Well, you don't put the lammie on them now, Coop.
- 29:07Speaker 1: But I don't want that. But that's good, that's good. Yeah,
- 29:11Speaker 1: I don't. I don't. I don't fly very much, but
- 29:13Speaker 1: usually like to have a little bit of leg room.
- 29:15Speaker 1: You got to pay extra for that, which sucks, you know,
- 29:17Speaker 1: it's pain in the ass. That's why I'd fly more
- 29:20Speaker 1: if it was cheaper and I could have leg room.
- 29:22Speaker 1: But I've flown coast to coast a few times and
- 29:25Speaker 1: had to sit in the middle seat with two people
- 29:28Speaker 1: that did not did not appreciate me being having long legs,
- 29:32Speaker 1: and it was it was a problem back in the
- 29:35Speaker 1: back in the day. But did Southwest. But I thought
- 29:38Speaker 1: they were switching up to go to everyone gets their
- 29:41Speaker 1: own seat and all that stuff. Have they done that yet?
- 29:44Speaker 4: I think so?
- 29:46Speaker 1: I thought, well, you know, before he was like group A,
- 29:49Speaker 1: Group B, whatever it was, it was a free for all.
- 29:52Speaker 4: Yeah, it's no longer first come, first serve.
- 29:55Speaker 1: I don't know if that started it though. I know
- 29:56Speaker 1: it's supposed to start this year, but I don't know
- 29:58Speaker 1: if it started yet because I had so many Well,
- 30:00Speaker 1: somebody I know flew Southwest and said they didn't have
- 30:05Speaker 1: a reserve seat.
- 30:05Speaker 4: So it says plans to begin it and the second
- 30:08Speaker 4: half of twenty twenty five.
- 30:10Speaker 1: Oh okay, all right, yeah, I mean I'm okay because
- 30:14Speaker 1: you don't have to rush, like you know, you know
- 30:16Speaker 1: you're gonna have a seat if you pick your seat,
- 30:18Speaker 1: and then you don't have to rush be the last
- 30:20Speaker 1: one on the plane. As long as you don't have
- 30:22Speaker 1: carry on, you'd be the last one on the plane.
- 30:23Speaker 1: So way to go anyway. One of my pet peeves.
- 30:27Speaker 1: I've ranted about this many times from the bully pulpit
- 30:30Speaker 1: here at Fox Sports radio is retired Jersey numbers. This
- 30:37Speaker 1: is something that started out because of a dead hockey
- 30:41Speaker 1: player and has has taken a life of its own
- 30:45Speaker 1: over the years. And I wouldn't retire anyone. I like
- 30:50Speaker 1: what they do. In football. Many teams have a ring
- 30:53Speaker 1: of honor where they honor the legends of the game
- 30:56Speaker 1: and they don't retire numbers. But it's out of control
- 30:59Speaker 1: in soul many sports, baseball and in basketball. And over
- 31:03Speaker 1: the weekend, the Golden State Warriors, we knew they were
- 31:07Speaker 1: doing this. It's not like it's a surprise, but they
- 31:10Speaker 1: hung to the rafters in San Francisco number nine for
- 31:15Speaker 1: andre Igudala. Number nine, Yes, number nine, Andrea Goodala is
- 31:21Speaker 1: number now heading to the rafters. It is in the
- 31:23Speaker 1: rafters there in San Francisco. And I'll be that guy.
- 31:28Speaker 1: Don't be that guy. I'm that guy. What are you doing? Like, seriously,
- 31:34Speaker 1: andre Ugudala, I understand you want a championship, you want
- 31:39Speaker 1: a couple with andre andre Ugudala. You're retiring his number?
- 31:45Speaker 4: What is that?
- 31:47Speaker 1: What is wrong with you? Like it's a sign you're
- 31:50Speaker 1: not in it to win it. I know they got
- 31:52Speaker 1: Jimmy Butler and all that, but Andrea Gudala is just
- 31:55Speaker 1: a journeyman player. He played more games with the Philadelphia
- 31:59Speaker 1: Seventies they did with the Golden State Warriors. But he's
- 32:03Speaker 1: played for four different NBA teams and just a vagabond
- 32:07Speaker 1: career and one time All Star. Just happened to be
- 32:10Speaker 1: in Golden State when things went well, and he retires
- 32:13Speaker 1: number dumb da dum dumb dumb dumb dudum dumb dumb.
- 32:20Speaker 1: But again, I'm the only one I ever loves these things.
- 32:23Speaker 1: I'm the only one people say, what are you doing?
- 32:24Speaker 7: What should you do?
- 32:25Speaker 1: You shouldn't do that, you shouldn't Se're just being a hater,
- 32:27Speaker 1: Ben being a realist. I'm keeping it real.
- 32:29Speaker 4: You're a bully.
- 32:30Speaker 1: I'm keeping it real, is what I am. We're gonna
- 32:33Speaker 1: have mallard of the third degree. Here's the Insta trivia.

- 36:55Speaker 1: the Kopa loop for the reading of the questions on
- 36:58Speaker 1: Mallard of the third degree.
- 37:00Speaker 7: And it was announced over the weekend that Greg Popovich
- 37:03Speaker 7: isp his future is uncertain. He may have coached his
- 37:07Speaker 7: last game in the NBA. Yes, Ben, If he's definitely
- 37:11Speaker 7: not coming back this season, we know that. Yeah for sure.
- 37:13Speaker 1: Ben.
- 37:13Speaker 7: If he doesn't coach another game ever, again, where does
- 37:16Speaker 7: he rank on the all time coach list?
- 37:17Speaker 1: So again, just for the record, Terry and England's probably
- 37:20Speaker 1: gonna get upset this because it feels like you're asking
- 37:22Speaker 1: for a list. Now, I don't do list. I'll do
- 37:23Speaker 1: Benny's big board. First thing is it does seem like
- 37:27Speaker 1: it's about time, right Greg Popovich, the man had a stroke.
- 37:31Speaker 1: You look at his age. He's seventy six years old,
- 37:35Speaker 1: so it's all the indicators are. It's probably time to
- 37:38Speaker 1: kind of chill out for a little bit and step
- 37:41Speaker 1: away at this point. But you're asking me, and on
- 37:45Speaker 1: my big board of NBA coaches, I'm not a big
- 37:48Speaker 1: Popovich guy. He's annoying to me. I had him to me,
- 37:53Speaker 1: Phil Jackson, red Arbach, pat Riley are ahead of him.
- 37:58Speaker 1: I'd put Bill Fitch ahead of Greg Popovic and even
- 38:03Speaker 1: Jerry Sloan who never got it done with the Utah Jazz.
- 38:06Speaker 1: But I would still put all those guys there's oh
- 38:08Speaker 1: him a six or lower on Big Ben's Big board
- 38:11Speaker 1: of NBA coaches.
- 38:12Speaker 4: Next on Friday, Yankees on Our House.
- 38:14Speaker 7: Steinbrenner announced that the team would be revising their long
- 38:17Speaker 7: standing policy against facial.
- 38:18Speaker 4: Hair and would now allow a well groomed beard thank god.
- 38:22Speaker 1: Now.
- 38:23Speaker 7: He said it was to make players more comfortable and
- 38:24Speaker 7: perhaps attract more free agents to the city.
- 38:28Speaker 4: Ben, Will this help the Yankees win?
- 38:30Speaker 6: No?
- 38:31Speaker 1: No, maybe they should work on covering first base. In
- 38:34Speaker 1: the World Series, are catching fly balls in centerfield. But
- 38:38Speaker 1: the conspiracy is the Yankees did This is a preemptive
- 38:41Speaker 1: strike because Vladimir Guerrero Junior regularly has what koop a beard? Right?
- 38:48Speaker 1: A beard? He's the next big free agent in baseball,
- 38:50Speaker 1: Vlatti Guerrero of the Blue Jays, And so that's that's likely,
- 38:55Speaker 1: but that's not gonna help the Yankees win any games.
- 38:57Speaker 1: And you know, so we'll see what how long this last?
- 39:00Speaker 1: But next?
- 39:02Speaker 7: Jaguars VP Tony Biselli said in a recent radio interview
- 39:05Speaker 7: that Trevor Lawrence's lack of success isn't his fault, saying
- 39:08Speaker 7: this is going to be his third head coach and
- 39:09Speaker 7: all the different systems and everything else.
- 39:11Speaker 1: You can't do that.
- 39:12Speaker 7: You got to help a quarterback have consistency and build
- 39:14Speaker 7: with him and build it around him. Ben, how long
- 39:17Speaker 7: do you think Lawrence has to figure it out? Well, Hey,
- 39:19Speaker 7: Tony Bisselli's a dope, right. The reason he's had three
- 39:22Speaker 7: coaches is because Trevor Lawrence has sucked as an NFL quarterback.
- 39:27Speaker 7: Compared to it he was supposed to be a unicorn,
- 39:28Speaker 7: a generational town. He's been none of those things. But
- 39:31Speaker 7: it's Jacksonville. It's a small town. They're pathetic. He's probably
- 39:35Speaker 7: gonna two or three years. How did we do you
- 39:37Speaker 7: pass us it in? That's a I've on the write up.
- 39:40Speaker 1: I won, I won popping
