Oh?
Speaker 1 (00:41):
They played? They played in the pony takes not a cupcake?
Speaker 3 (00:45):
Well, come in not beginning of another week of the

a cluster as we avoid that dark energy coast, stuckcoast, border,
the border and beyond on the vast and fantastically powerful
(01:09):
microphones of fsre am monating live, do it live, Do

should be. I know Mark the Walker, Andy the Comic
book Guy, Felexis, and Derek the Bills Monster. I think
(01:44):
I hit all the Bills Mafia Show contributors in hiding
right now. Wow, what was that? My goodness? But we'll
start with it is what we're gonna do. Play the hits,
mom man, play the hits are so we'll play the
hits here to begin the week. As we look back,
we still have a couple of games to go, a
little Monday night doubleheader. But two two teams who consider
(02:08):
themselves contenders for the American Football Conference, our league, coming
from the Charms City. They got together there and was
built as a hey heavyweight matchup, early season heavyweight matchup
in the first quarter of the NFL season, and you
had Josh Allen and the Bills. They were strutting around,
(02:30):
look at us, smelling themselves Buffalo playing, paying a visit
to Lamar Lamar Jackson and the Ravens who got off
to the slow start. But one against the Cowboys, trying
to make it two in a row. You had Mike
Tarrico and Chris Collinsworth. They had to call a NBC
living the Island life, the island life here, and how
(02:53):
did that go? Early season litmus test. Okay, so we
know we know what happened. Maybe you didn't the game,
but I guess it depends on what side of the
aisle you're sitting on. Because Dereck Henry king for the day.
Derek Henry had one hundred and ninety nine yards rumblin
(03:14):
and stumblin, not a lot of rumblin and not a
lot of stumbling. A hundred ninety nine yards. Lamar Jackson
had not one but two touchdowns and he he got
it done. Two touchdowns through the air, two and one
on the ground. So that my master is that's three.
The Ravens made mince meat out of buffalo meat and
(03:35):
Josh Allen thirty five to ten, good afternoon, good evening,
and good night on a Sunday night. Henry took the
first handoff that he got eighty seven yards to pay dirt,
and that gave Baltimore the early lead. They never trailed.
They led from pillar to post, and they win this
game to get to two and two. But the better
(03:56):
story is in the losing locker room story and losing
locker rooms. So let us discuss the question where is
the worry O meter? The worry O meter for the bills.
As we all knew, this was a big spot for
them to see if they were legitimate or not, and
they went out there and just got punked. They got
absolutely painted by the Ravens. So where is the worry
(04:19):
OH meter for the bills after this blowout loss? So
I've got scooby dooby doo, FDA approved supplement and catwalk,
and we will combine all of these things together and
we are going to make a nice leisurely walk down
the avenue, which is what the Ravens had, not the bills.
(04:41):
The Ravens had a leisurely walk down the avenue. So
a the mallor WORRYO meter one to ten, with ten
being oh my god, we're screwed. That's at the very
top of the Malor Warriometer. But for the Buffalo bills,
I will be realistic, I will be grounded. I will
not be a shock jock. I will not be trying
(05:03):
to get attention here. But the Malar warriometer in this
particular moment. We do the show today. We don't do
the show tomorrow. That's the different show or the day
after that's another show. But in this moment, the malor
Warrio meter one to ten for Buffalo eight point zero
eight point zho I am at eight point zero here. Now,
(05:26):
we had mentioned in previous episodes that while Buffalo was
enjoying early season success, that was a byproduct of a
sugary sweet schedule to start the year. Wins over Alligator Arms,
Murray and the frauds that are the Arizona Cardinals every year,
the Miami Dolphins in a game where twa tongue bai
(05:46):
looa got knocked out, probably for the rest of the year,
if not for a good chunk of the year. And
then Jacksonville, three teams that are puke. None of them
are gonna make the playoffs this year. They're all going
to miss the playoffs. So Batmore was the placement test.
This was the measuring stick game. And imagine, if you will,
(06:07):
a classic Scooby doob Doo meme, a Scooby doobe doo meme. Here,
Let's see who this really is? Right that the question,
Let's see who this really is? This is this team
from Buffalo, and this was the Bills Scooby Doo we
do reveal game, all right, So the famous scene the
(06:28):
Buffalo football team there was dressed as a ghost and
they were unmasked on national TV pre tenders. Pre tenders. Right,
they flunked in every way possible, every way possible from
the very basic bedrock of football blocking and tackling. You
(06:49):
had backups and Buffalo did not have a lot of
depth to start to hear, it appears the backups suck
and can't play, which is problematic, right, I would think
I'm not a Bills fan, but if your backups can't tackle,
it's not like Derrick Henry was not going through would
be Buffalo defenders. There was no one there stopping no
(07:12):
one they're stopping Derrick Henry. There were people that could
have made plays that did not make plays. Now, page two,
who is the real Josh Allen? So we know the
Bills have questions on defense and just in general, a
lass a fair approach to this particular game. But that
noise you heard was the screech and scream coming from
(07:35):
the campaign center, the campaign center for the Josh Allen
Marching and showder Society ENVP campaign. Because that came off
the tracks, that MVP campaign coming off the tracks in
a large way, that was an elbow right to the
solar plexus is what it was. Baltimore defensively coming into
game not ranked in the top twenty in every key category.
(07:58):
It's early under you. That's all we have to go by.
And this was statistically not a great Ravens defense, and
yet they were absolutely able to manhandle the Buffalo offense
in this game. And you take a couple of steps back,
and I recall some conversations we had after the Jacksonville
Monday night game, and the conversation there was about how
(08:22):
the Bills were different. Remember Josh Allen made a comment
about and it was he said it was taken out
of context, but it wasn't. He was clearly flexing that
they didn't have Stefan Diggs anymore and so they were better.
They could spread the ball around and pump your chest
out and all that. Okay, Well, clearly my diagnosis here
behind these microphones is they need an FDA approved supplement
(08:46):
for premature braggadocio. Is what they need here the Buffalo Bills.
Because the Bills, that the Bills team that showed up
now defensive issues aside on offense. The offense could have
kept them in the game even with the defense as
bad as it was. Some good offense gives your shot.
They had no chance. Mitch Trubisky was playing by the
(09:06):
fourth quarter of the game. He was playing in mop
up time at the end of the game because there
was no wow factor. There was no there there for
the Buffalo Bills in this game. They were methodical, they
were dull. It was yawn inducing football. And they had
a bunch it'd be like a baseball team with a
bunch of punch and judy hitters, and they needed that
(09:27):
big moonshot and they had no one that could hit
the ball out of the ballpark in this game, just
twelve first downs, futile two hundred and thirty six yards
of offense on this night, again against the Ravens team.
Speaker 2 (09:38):
I know.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
The pedigree of the Ravens is they are always a
top ten defense. Not this year, not so far, not
in the top twenty in most statistical categories. And Baltimore
had almost double the yardage, almost double the yardage. Unless
the Bills can can find something somewhere offensively, this is
(10:00):
how they're going to have to play with this slow,
no real chunk plays. They don't have any big time
players and unless they can go out and trade for
demonte Adams. The Raiders one without him. They've played the Browns,
which like barely an NFL team, the Cleveland Browns at
this particular point, but they did win a game without
him there, so we'll see what happens with that. But
that's the top available receiver. The trade deadlines in early November.
(10:23):
We're heading in in a couple of days here, we'll
be into the month of October, so the trade deadline
will be here before you know. But the Bails have
a bunch of rinky dink wide receivers. That's what they
have all right now. Last word, does on the other side,
does this performance a resounding win by Baltimore does it
budge the needle for Lamoix, Lamar Jackson and the Ravens.
(10:47):
And I would be Benny bright Side on this. I
didn't see it coming. We handicapped the game for the
TV show. I did not expect this to be a blowout.
For some reason, I thought the Bills would actually compete
here and I think the Aves were that much better
than Buffalo, and much to my dismay, that was the
case here. But this for Baltimore, this was a trip
(11:08):
down the catwalk and they're doing the peacock dance, is
what they were doing down the catwalk, where they fluffing
their feathers out and humming, I'm too sexy, ooh la
la as they go down the catwalk, because they were
really hitting on all cylinders and all that, doing a
little pirouet there with their feathers out on the catwalk
for everyone to see. And the thing about domination, even
(11:32):
if you took the eighty seven yard run away from
Derrick Henry, so well, that was an outlier. You know
that happens. But that's an outlier. So what did the
Bills do the rest of the time? So the other
twenty three times that Henry carried the ball, he averaged
four point nine yards per carry even with he went
(11:52):
over one hundred yards even without the eighty seven yard run.
And now the asterisk the yeah but yab but yeah,
but yeah, but yeah, but the yabbot is, well, it's
late September. It's late September, it's a random week in
the NFL. It's week four of the NFL schedules, So
you don't get too excited about that. What is the
(12:12):
kryptonite of Lamar Jackson. The kryptonite of Lamar Jackson is
the fact that the playoffs in January football. That's where
Lamar is exposed as a total fraud. Every year, it
will continue until he proves that not to be the case.
And for one night, despite that, for one night, the
Ravens absolutely didn't push the needle the other way. They
(12:37):
pushed the needle the other way here. But let's not
forget that this same Baltimore team in that stadium a
couple of weeks ago got punked by Gardner Minshew, my guy,
Gardner Minshew and the Raiders in the fourth quarter. Comeback
for the ages for the greatness of the Las Vegas Raiders,
(12:57):
and so now they have a letdown spot, big TV win,
prime time for the Ravens. Everyone will be kissing their
ass for the next forty eight hours saying watch out Baltimore,
the team be beat now they've found themselves. And then
they have to play Joe Burrow and the Ben Gals
in Cincinnati. That'll be next week. In week number five.

Speaker 1 (13:27):
The exit of a legend.
Speaker 3 (13:30):
Welcome in the beginning of another hour of the Ben
Malar Show. We are in the air eywhere.
Speaker 1 (13:42):
That's right, it's a word buffet as we scrub and
rub and clean everything coast to coast, border, the water
and beyond. On the mast and supremely powerful microphones of
Fsre m Mond live from the Circle, the big on
(14:03):
Deck Circle in the sky. We're broadcasting live from the
Tiraq dot com studios. Tyrack dot com will help you
get there. An unmatched selection, fast, free shipping, free road
hazard protection, and over ten thousand recommended in stars tirack
dot com the way tire buying should be. It feels
like over the years, I've gotten ten thousand calls from
(14:25):
a character named Dick and Dayton and almost all of
them have mentioned either Bernie Kozar or Pete Rose about
ten thousand times over the years. And the big story here,
our lead. The other Monday night football game was so bad?
How bad was it? I made the editorial decision, the
rare and appropriate editorial decision that the death of a
(14:49):
baseball legend more interesting than the MLB competition Monday Night Football.
The early Monday night football game. But our lead this
hour is from baseball. It is not what I thought
I would be talking about. The Mets and the Braves
playing a doubleheader on Monday. They split and so that
means they're both Ink and the Metropolitan play the Brewers.
(15:10):
The Bravos will visit the Podres. More on that later,
but they were upstaged by Charlie Hustle. I assume you've
heard by now. It's been bouncing around. There's nothing human
beings love more than to share bad news, but maybe not.
Pete Rose is dead, the all time hits leader, who
(15:31):
of course banned for betting on baseball for betting on baseball,
has died at his home in Vegas at the age
of eighty three. I heard a couple months ago that
Pete was in poor health. It turns out he has died.
We do not have many details, but not that it
really matters. We'll hear more, I'm sure in the coming
(15:51):
days here and what happened exactly if that led to
the death of Pete Rose. But he was in his
early eighties, so let us discuss the question how are
you going to remember Pete Rose? So, first of all,
I've got a bunch of things that are running through
my head. Here a bunch of things iraq in thephobia,
(16:13):
still water and ferris wheel. And we'll combine all of
these things together and try not to slip and fall. So,
first of all, for generations, multiple generations that are a
little bit older than I am, Pete Rose was the
personification of baseball. He was He's the epitome of what
(16:36):
it meant to be a baseball player, and he is
why so many fell in love with the sport of
baseball and the number fourteen. When I came along, he
was long in the tooth and then became the Reds manager.
Those are my memories of Pete Rose as a player,
but I did see him play when he was a
player manager at the end of his career. But Number fourteen,
(16:58):
the big red machine, I mean, no days off, the
antithesis of the modern ballplayer, the modern wush ballplayer that
doesn't play hard. And it's like we had a a
what a great dichotomy between what happened on Sunday with
Blake Snell, who chose not to pitch on Sunday for
the Giants in the final game, and the quote that
(17:20):
he gave to a reporter a beat reporter covering the
Giants was, and I'm paraphrasing here, was something to the effect, well,
if the other team had been in contention, I would
have pitched, but since they're not, I chose not to.
That was, the, of course, polar opposite of what Pete
Rose was. It's funny, if Pete had played in today's game,
they would have said, you got to slow him down.
(17:41):
He's he's going to hurt the team. He's trying too hard.
He works too hard. But he was a no nonsense player.
Yet the shaggy hair a byproduct of the time that
he played in dive in, head first, covered in dirt,
taking out Ray Fosse in an All Star game of
all things. But over all, right, you go from top
to bottom of the life of Pete Rose and the
(18:05):
legacy that he leaves behind as he leaves this mortal coil.
And it's racknephobia, right, It's that tangled web that we weave,
or go the spider web of chaos. Pete reinvented himself
a few years been, probably about ten years. He popped
up on Fox baseball coverage and was the most entertaining
(18:29):
baseball commentator. Baseball players generally are boring. They are dull.
On television, Pete was engaging and entertaining and fun and
people really enjoyed him on television. Of course that didn't
last for reasons off the field. But Pete had a
little bit everything, right. He had the gambling, He had
the booze, the sex, the rock and roll, a little
bit of all that. And of course the gambling is
(18:51):
what did him in, right, that's the story why he
wasn't allowed in the Hall of Fame. And Pete Rose
bet on baseball. And now you watch baseball and it's
sponsored by everything is promoted or sponsored by a gambling company.
And listen, I love gambling. I do a TV show
about gambling. We have advertisers here that are gambling companies.
But it's just the irony of what was illegal then
(19:15):
is legal now. It's like this happens all the time.
Things change, perceptions change and whatnot. But even today you
would not be allowed to bet the way Pete Rose
was betting on baseball from the clubhouse as he was
managing the Reds, putting bets in and whatnot. But there's
a famous quote from Abraham Lincoln I believe it was
Lincoln who said, we can complain because rose bushes have thorns,
(19:41):
or we can celebrate the fact that thorns have roses.
That depends how you look at it. But Pete had
a little bit of that, a little bit of this,
and was a heck of a player in a bigger
than life personality and all that. Now, secondly, the big
question that everyone's yapping about here, everyone's talking about this, Well,
now he's dead, so Charlie Hustle, he's not coming back.
(20:04):
Does he get into the Hall of Fame? Is it
now time for Pete Rose to be inducted into that
little town in New York, Cooperstown. And my initial thought
when I first heard the news and I was getting
my phone was blown up as Pete Rose is dead.
You know, people love sharing bad news, So my initial
thought was he's going to get in. But then I
(20:28):
started futzing around with some people, talking to different people,
and it's not a lot even in death, it's complicated. Right,
here's the issue. There's a lot of people that think, well,
it was a lifetime ban. His life is over, so therefore,
since he's dead, Pete Rose should be allowed into the
Hall of fame. But as Lee Corso likes to say
(20:52):
on TV, not so fast, my friends. Turns out that
still water runs deep. And there is a technicality that
could still prevent Pete Rose from getting into the Hall
of Fame. You see, Pete Rose was not banned for life.
The actual legal language was permanently ineligible, which is not
(21:14):
the same as lifetime man. Lifetime man means you're dead, okay,
ban's over, but permanently ineligible means even in death, you're
not allowed into the Hall of Fame. So it depends
whether or not Baseball is willing to bend a little bit.
Like Rob Manford is a Weasley commissioner. I don't know
(21:36):
anybody that thinks he's doing a good job, just a
terrible commissioner. But this is a way for him to
get a little good karma. And I said, oh, Pete's dead,
so we'll encourage him. Baseball will claim they're not in
charge of the Hall of Fame. It's an independent operation,
which is bull crap in my opinion. But this would
(21:57):
have to be finessed by the miser. And I have
said this since I first learned about the story, when
I first got into talk radio in the Stone Age.
This was the go to topic if you were ever
having a slow day as a talk show host, it
was Pete Rose. Should he be in the Hall of Fame?
Give out the number? Right? Everything lights up like a
(22:18):
Christmas tree and boys would call up and debate it.
You know, he should never be in the Hall of it.
Put him in the Hall of Fame. I'm back and
forth was a go to topic if you're a lazy
talk show host. Pete Rose fall Hall of Fame. But
having worked around baseball and been privy to baseball hardcore people,
the hard o's in baseball. This has been passed down
(22:40):
from generations. The commissioner Barti Giamani probably don't know who
that is. His kid was he still is a famous actor.
But Bargiammani died eight days after Pete Rose was banned
for life. And while Bargiamani had a lot of health
issues didn't have a great diet. I believe he smoked
a lot. The connection was that Pete Rose had a
(23:03):
role in the death of Bargiomoni right. Because of the
stress of all this, Bargiaomoni died a little over a
week after Pete Rose was banned for Baseball and Cooperstown
was what he wanted. Now, you could argue that Pete
actually benefited more from not getting into the Hall of Fame.
He became a notorious figure and had autograph signings in
(23:24):
Vegas for years at different hotels, and would for many
years go to New York and like across the street
from the Hall of Fame or down the street, they
would have autograph signings in New York. But as far
as putting him in now, even if Baseball put him in,
to me, it's pointless because the whole point of it
is you're alive, you get to enjoy it. Like Pete's dead,
(23:47):
He's not going to be able to enjoy it. Like
who cares At this particular point, he's crossed over the
rubicon and major League Baseball and that they have the
ability they want, they can encourage Pete Rose to get
into the Hall of Fame. But the whole thing is
insane to the membrane, it really is. And Pete used
(24:07):
to live right across the not across the street, but
up the hill from where we broadcast from. When I
first started here at Fox Sports Radio, it was an
Italian restaurant right across so Pulvita here and Pete was
in there four or five days a week. We always
knew exactly when it was like happy hour, Pete would
be in there at the bar holding court. And then
eventually he moved to Vegas to sign autographs all the time,
(24:29):
and that was it. We didn't see Pete after that.
But anyway, rest in peace to Pete Rose. And it's
not a guarantee, even in death that he gets into
the Hall of Fame because of the legalese permanently ineligible
for the Hall of Fame.

(01:44):
I hit all the Bills Mafia Show contributors in hiding
right now. Wow, what was that? My goodness? But we'll
start with it is what we're gonna do. Play the hits,
mom man, play the hits are so we'll play the
hits here to begin the week. As we look back,
we still have a couple of games to go, a
little Monday night doubleheader. But two two teams who consider
(02:08):
themselves contenders for the American Football Conference, our league, coming
from the Charms City. They got together there and was
built as a hey heavyweight matchup, early season heavyweight matchup
in the first quarter of the NFL season, and you
had Josh Allen and the Bills. They were strutting around,
(02:30):
look at us, smelling themselves Buffalo playing, paying a visit
to Lamar Lamar Jackson and the Ravens who got off
to the slow start. But one against the Cowboys, trying
to make it two in a row. You had Mike
Tarrico and Chris Collinsworth. They had to call a NBC
living the Island life, the island life here, and how
(02:53):
did that go? Early season litmus test. Okay, so we
know we know what happened. Maybe you didn't the game,
but I guess it depends on what side of the
aisle you're sitting on. Because Dereck Henry king for the day.
Derek Henry had one hundred and ninety nine yards rumblin
(03:14):
and stumblin, not a lot of rumblin and not a
lot of stumbling. A hundred ninety nine yards. Lamar Jackson
had not one but two touchdowns and he he got
it done. Two touchdowns through the air, two and one
on the ground. So that my master is that's three.
The Ravens made mince meat out of buffalo meat and
(03:35):
Josh Allen thirty five to ten, good afternoon, good evening,
and good night on a Sunday night. Henry took the
first handoff that he got eighty seven yards to pay dirt,
and that gave Baltimore the early lead. They never trailed.
They led from pillar to post, and they win this
game to get to two and two. But the better
(03:56):
story is in the losing locker room story and losing
locker rooms. So let us discuss the question where is
the worry O meter? The worry O meter for the bills.
As we all knew, this was a big spot for
them to see if they were legitimate or not, and
they went out there and just got punked. They got
absolutely painted by the Ravens. So where is the worry
(04:19):
OH meter for the bills after this blowout loss? So
I've got scooby dooby doo, FDA approved supplement and catwalk,
and we will combine all of these things together and
we are going to make a nice leisurely walk down
the avenue, which is what the Ravens had, not the bills.
(04:41):
The Ravens had a leisurely walk down the avenue. So
a the mallor WORRYO meter one to ten, with ten
being oh my god, we're screwed. That's at the very
top of the Malor Warriometer. But for the Buffalo bills,
I will be realistic, I will be grounded. I will
not be a shock jock. I will not be trying
(05:03):
to get attention here. But the Malar warriometer in this
particular moment. We do the show today. We don't do
the show tomorrow. That's the different show or the day
after that's another show. But in this moment, the malor
Warrio meter one to ten for Buffalo eight point zero
eight point zho I am at eight point zero here. Now,
(05:26):
we had mentioned in previous episodes that while Buffalo was
enjoying early season success, that was a byproduct of a
sugary sweet schedule to start the year. Wins over Alligator Arms,
Murray and the frauds that are the Arizona Cardinals every year,
the Miami Dolphins in a game where twa tongue bai
(05:46):
looa got knocked out, probably for the rest of the year,
if not for a good chunk of the year. And
then Jacksonville, three teams that are puke. None of them
are gonna make the playoffs this year. They're all going
to miss the playoffs. So Batmore was the placement test.
This was the measuring stick game. And imagine, if you will,
(06:07):
a classic Scooby doob Doo meme, a Scooby doobe doo meme. Here,
Let's see who this really is? Right that the question,
Let's see who this really is? This is this team
from Buffalo, and this was the Bills Scooby Doo we
do reveal game, all right, So the famous scene the
(06:28):
Buffalo football team there was dressed as a ghost and
they were unmasked on national TV pre tenders. Pre tenders. Right,
they flunked in every way possible, every way possible from
the very basic bedrock of football blocking and tackling. You
(06:49):
had backups and Buffalo did not have a lot of
depth to start to hear, it appears the backups suck
and can't play, which is problematic, right, I would think
I'm not a Bills fan, but if your backups can't tackle,
it's not like Derrick Henry was not going through would
be Buffalo defenders. There was no one there stopping no
(07:12):
one they're stopping Derrick Henry. There were people that could
have made plays that did not make plays. Now, page two,
who is the real Josh Allen? So we know the
Bills have questions on defense and just in general, a
lass a fair approach to this particular game. But that
noise you heard was the screech and scream coming from
(07:35):
the campaign center, the campaign center for the Josh Allen
Marching and showder Society ENVP campaign. Because that came off
the tracks, that MVP campaign coming off the tracks in
a large way, that was an elbow right to the
solar plexus is what it was. Baltimore defensively coming into
game not ranked in the top twenty in every key category.
(07:58):
It's early under you. That's all we have to go by.
And this was statistically not a great Ravens defense, and
yet they were absolutely able to manhandle the Buffalo offense
in this game. And you take a couple of steps back,
and I recall some conversations we had after the Jacksonville
Monday night game, and the conversation there was about how
(08:22):
the Bills were different. Remember Josh Allen made a comment
about and it was he said it was taken out
of context, but it wasn't. He was clearly flexing that
they didn't have Stefan Diggs anymore and so they were better.
They could spread the ball around and pump your chest
out and all that. Okay, Well, clearly my diagnosis here
behind these microphones is they need an FDA approved supplement
(08:46):
for premature braggadocio. Is what they need here the Buffalo Bills.
Because the Bills, that the Bills team that showed up
now defensive issues aside on offense. The offense could have
kept them in the game even with the defense as
bad as it was. Some good offense gives your shot.
They had no chance. Mitch Trubisky was playing by the
(09:06):
fourth quarter of the game. He was playing in mop
up time at the end of the game because there
was no wow factor. There was no there there for
the Buffalo Bills in this game. They were methodical, they
were dull. It was yawn inducing football. And they had
a bunch it'd be like a baseball team with a
bunch of punch and judy hitters, and they needed that
(09:27):
big moonshot and they had no one that could hit
the ball out of the ballpark in this game, just
twelve first downs, futile two hundred and thirty six yards
of offense on this night, again against the Ravens team.
Speaker 2 (09:38):
I know.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
The pedigree of the Ravens is they are always a
top ten defense. Not this year, not so far, not
in the top twenty in most statistical categories. And Baltimore
had almost double the yardage, almost double the yardage. Unless
the Bills can can find something somewhere offensively, this is
(10:00):
how they're going to have to play with this slow,
no real chunk plays. They don't have any big time
players and unless they can go out and trade for
demonte Adams. The Raiders one without him. They've played the Browns,
which like barely an NFL team, the Cleveland Browns at
this particular point, but they did win a game without
him there, so we'll see what happens with that. But
that's the top available receiver. The trade deadlines in early November.
(10:23):
We're heading in in a couple of days here, we'll
be into the month of October, so the trade deadline
will be here before you know. But the Bails have
a bunch of rinky dink wide receivers. That's what they
have all right now. Last word, does on the other side,
does this performance a resounding win by Baltimore does it
budge the needle for Lamoix, Lamar Jackson and the Ravens.
(10:47):
And I would be Benny bright Side on this. I
didn't see it coming. We handicapped the game for the
TV show. I did not expect this to be a blowout.
For some reason, I thought the Bills would actually compete
here and I think the Aves were that much better
than Buffalo, and much to my dismay, that was the
case here. But this for Baltimore, this was a trip
(11:08):
down the catwalk and they're doing the peacock dance, is
what they were doing down the catwalk, where they fluffing
their feathers out and humming, I'm too sexy, ooh la
la as they go down the catwalk, because they were
really hitting on all cylinders and all that, doing a
little pirouet there with their feathers out on the catwalk
for everyone to see. And the thing about domination, even
(11:32):
if you took the eighty seven yard run away from
Derrick Henry, so well, that was an outlier. You know
that happens. But that's an outlier. So what did the
Bills do the rest of the time? So the other
twenty three times that Henry carried the ball, he averaged
four point nine yards per carry even with he went
(11:52):
over one hundred yards even without the eighty seven yard run.
And now the asterisk the yeah but yab but yeah,
but yeah, but yeah, but the yabbot is, well, it's
late September. It's late September, it's a random week in
the NFL. It's week four of the NFL schedules, So
you don't get too excited about that. What is the
(12:12):
kryptonite of Lamar Jackson. The kryptonite of Lamar Jackson is
the fact that the playoffs in January football. That's where
Lamar is exposed as a total fraud. Every year, it
will continue until he proves that not to be the case.
And for one night, despite that, for one night, the
Ravens absolutely didn't push the needle the other way. They
(12:37):
pushed the needle the other way here. But let's not
forget that this same Baltimore team in that stadium a
couple of weeks ago got punked by Gardner Minshew, my guy,
Gardner Minshew and the Raiders in the fourth quarter. Comeback
for the ages for the greatness of the Las Vegas Raiders,
(12:57):
and so now they have a letdown spot, big TV win,
prime time for the Ravens. Everyone will be kissing their
ass for the next forty eight hours saying watch out Baltimore,
the team be beat now they've found themselves. And then
they have to play Joe Burrow and the Ben Gals
in Cincinnati. That'll be next week. In week number five.

The exit of a legend.
Speaker 3 (13:30):
Welcome in the beginning of another hour of the Ben
Malar Show. We are in the air eywhere.
Speaker 1 (13:42):
That's right, it's a word buffet as we scrub and
rub and clean everything coast to coast, border, the water
and beyond. On the mast and supremely powerful microphones of

Tiraq dot com studios. Tyrack dot com will help you

dot com the way tire buying should be. It feels
like over the years, I've gotten ten thousand calls from
(14:25):
a character named Dick and Dayton and almost all of
them have mentioned either Bernie Kozar or Pete Rose about
ten thousand times over the years. And the big story here,
our lead. The other Monday night football game was so bad?
How bad was it? I made the editorial decision, the
rare and appropriate editorial decision that the death of a
(14:49):
baseball legend more interesting than the MLB competition Monday Night Football.
The early Monday night football game. But our lead this
hour is from baseball. It is not what I thought
I would be talking about. The Mets and the Braves
playing a doubleheader on Monday. They split and so that
means they're both Ink and the Metropolitan play the Brewers.
(15:10):
The Bravos will visit the Podres. More on that later,
but they were upstaged by Charlie Hustle. I assume you've
heard by now. It's been bouncing around. There's nothing human
beings love more than to share bad news, but maybe not.
Pete Rose is dead, the all time hits leader, who
(15:31):
of course banned for betting on baseball for betting on baseball,
has died at his home in Vegas at the age
of eighty three. I heard a couple months ago that
Pete was in poor health. It turns out he has died.
We do not have many details, but not that it
really matters. We'll hear more, I'm sure in the coming
(15:51):
days here and what happened exactly if that led to
the death of Pete Rose. But he was in his
early eighties, so let us discuss the question how are
you going to remember Pete Rose? So, first of all,
I've got a bunch of things that are running through
my head. Here a bunch of things iraq in thephobia,
(16:13):
still water and ferris wheel. And we'll combine all of
these things together and try not to slip and fall. So,
first of all, for generations, multiple generations that are a
little bit older than I am, Pete Rose was the
personification of baseball. He was He's the epitome of what
(16:36):
it meant to be a baseball player, and he is
why so many fell in love with the sport of
baseball and the number fourteen. When I came along, he
was long in the tooth and then became the Reds manager.
Those are my memories of Pete Rose as a player,
but I did see him play when he was a
player manager at the end of his career. But Number fourteen,
(16:58):
the big red machine, I mean, no days off, the
antithesis of the modern ballplayer, the modern wush ballplayer that
doesn't play hard. And it's like we had a a
what a great dichotomy between what happened on Sunday with
Blake Snell, who chose not to pitch on Sunday for
the Giants in the final game, and the quote that
(17:20):
he gave to a reporter a beat reporter covering the
Giants was, and I'm paraphrasing here, was something to the effect, well,
if the other team had been in contention, I would
have pitched, but since they're not, I chose not to.
That was, the, of course, polar opposite of what Pete
Rose was. It's funny, if Pete had played in today's game,
they would have said, you got to slow him down.
(17:41):
He's he's going to hurt the team. He's trying too hard.
He works too hard. But he was a no nonsense player.
Yet the shaggy hair a byproduct of the time that
he played in dive in, head first, covered in dirt,
taking out Ray Fosse in an All Star game of
all things. But over all, right, you go from top
to bottom of the life of Pete Rose and the
(18:05):
legacy that he leaves behind as he leaves this mortal coil.
And it's racknephobia, right, It's that tangled web that we weave,
or go the spider web of chaos. Pete reinvented himself
a few years been, probably about ten years. He popped
up on Fox baseball coverage and was the most entertaining
(18:29):
baseball commentator. Baseball players generally are boring. They are dull.
On television, Pete was engaging and entertaining and fun and
people really enjoyed him on television. Of course that didn't
last for reasons off the field. But Pete had a
little bit everything, right. He had the gambling, He had
the booze, the sex, the rock and roll, a little
bit of all that. And of course the gambling is
(18:51):
what did him in, right, that's the story why he
wasn't allowed in the Hall of Fame. And Pete Rose
bet on baseball. And now you watch baseball and it's
sponsored by everything is promoted or sponsored by a gambling company.
And listen, I love gambling. I do a TV show
about gambling. We have advertisers here that are gambling companies.
But it's just the irony of what was illegal then
(19:15):
is legal now. It's like this happens all the time.
Things change, perceptions change and whatnot. But even today you
would not be allowed to bet the way Pete Rose
was betting on baseball from the clubhouse as he was
managing the Reds, putting bets in and whatnot. But there's
a famous quote from Abraham Lincoln I believe it was
Lincoln who said, we can complain because rose bushes have thorns,
(19:41):
or we can celebrate the fact that thorns have roses.
That depends how you look at it. But Pete had
a little bit of that, a little bit of this,
and was a heck of a player in a bigger
than life personality and all that. Now, secondly, the big
question that everyone's yapping about here, everyone's talking about this, Well,
now he's dead, so Charlie Hustle, he's not coming back.
(20:04):
Does he get into the Hall of Fame? Is it
now time for Pete Rose to be inducted into that
little town in New York, Cooperstown. And my initial thought
when I first heard the news and I was getting
my phone was blown up as Pete Rose is dead.
You know, people love sharing bad news, So my initial
thought was he's going to get in. But then I
(20:28):
started futzing around with some people, talking to different people,
and it's not a lot even in death, it's complicated. Right,
here's the issue. There's a lot of people that think, well,
it was a lifetime ban. His life is over, so therefore,
since he's dead, Pete Rose should be allowed into the
Hall of fame. But as Lee Corso likes to say
(20:52):
on TV, not so fast, my friends. Turns out that
still water runs deep. And there is a technicality that
could still prevent Pete Rose from getting into the Hall
of Fame. You see, Pete Rose was not banned for life.
The actual legal language was permanently ineligible, which is not
(21:14):
the same as lifetime man. Lifetime man means you're dead, okay,
ban's over, but permanently ineligible means even in death, you're
not allowed into the Hall of Fame. So it depends
whether or not Baseball is willing to bend a little bit.
Like Rob Manford is a Weasley commissioner. I don't know
(21:36):
anybody that thinks he's doing a good job, just a
terrible commissioner. But this is a way for him to
get a little good karma. And I said, oh, Pete's dead,
so we'll encourage him. Baseball will claim they're not in
charge of the Hall of Fame. It's an independent operation,
which is bull crap in my opinion. But this would
(21:57):
have to be finessed by the miser. And I have
said this since I first learned about the story, when
I first got into talk radio in the Stone Age.
This was the go to topic if you were ever
having a slow day as a talk show host, it
was Pete Rose. Should he be in the Hall of Fame?
Give out the number? Right? Everything lights up like a
(22:18):
Christmas tree and boys would call up and debate it.
You know, he should never be in the Hall of it.
Put him in the Hall of Fame. I'm back and
forth was a go to topic if you're a lazy
talk show host. Pete Rose fall Hall of Fame. But
having worked around baseball and been privy to baseball hardcore people,
the hard o's in baseball. This has been passed down
(22:40):
from generations. The commissioner Barti Giamani probably don't know who
that is. His kid was he still is a famous actor.
But Bargiammani died eight days after Pete Rose was banned
for life. And while Bargiamani had a lot of health
issues didn't have a great diet. I believe he smoked
a lot. The connection was that Pete Rose had a
(23:03):
role in the death of Bargiomoni right. Because of the
stress of all this, Bargiaomoni died a little over a
week after Pete Rose was banned for Baseball and Cooperstown
was what he wanted. Now, you could argue that Pete
actually benefited more from not getting into the Hall of Fame.
He became a notorious figure and had autograph signings in
(23:24):
Vegas for years at different hotels, and would for many
years go to New York and like across the street
from the Hall of Fame or down the street, they
would have autograph signings in New York. But as far
as putting him in now, even if Baseball put him in,
to me, it's pointless because the whole point of it
is you're alive, you get to enjoy it. Like Pete's dead,
(23:47):
He's not going to be able to enjoy it. Like
who cares At this particular point, he's crossed over the
rubicon and major League Baseball and that they have the
ability they want, they can encourage Pete Rose to get
into the Hall of Fame. But the whole thing is
insane to the membrane, it really is. And Pete used
(24:07):
to live right across the not across the street, but
up the hill from where we broadcast from. When I
first started here at Fox Sports Radio, it was an
Italian restaurant right across so Pulvita here and Pete was
in there four or five days a week. We always
knew exactly when it was like happy hour, Pete would
be in there at the bar holding court. And then
eventually he moved to Vegas to sign autographs all the time,
(24:29):
and that was it. We didn't see Pete after that.
But anyway, rest in peace to Pete Rose. And it's
not a guarantee, even in death that he gets into
the Hall of Fame because of the legalese permanently ineligible
for the Hall of Fame.
