Speaker 1 (00:33):
That funny money it is. The color purple is what
it is. Welcome in the beginning of a brand spankin
new night of the Ben Mahler Show. We are in
the air everywhere, chewing the rag as we boil away
(00:53):
the goo coast, the coast, border.
Speaker 3 (00:56):
To border and beyond all.

Buying should be our lead this hour. We play the
(01:40):
heads mall Man, our play hits. We'll go to Twin
Cities where the juicy Lucies are good. The football's eh,
the baseball eh, and the basketball tanked at the end.
But that is the epicenter, not for baseball, not for basketball.
It's seemed lost to the the Mavericks, but the epicenter
of the football new cycle. The eagle has landed, or
(02:02):
is that the Viking has gotten to the port and.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
Is not leaving.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
And if you did not here by now, maybe you're
just really bad at keeping track of stuff, because the
news has been out there for a while. But maybe
you missed it. Perhaps perhaps you did. We learned the
Minnesota Vikings have locked up and tossed away the key
for Justin Jefferson. He got paid, He got paid. How
(02:28):
much did he get paid? Well, four years. The total
value is up to one hundred and forty million dollars.
But when you break it down, well, just say this
one sentence, Justin Jefferson received the riches of Solomon or
in this case, the Viking ownership group Jefferson now the
highest paid non quarterback in the NFL. He never has
(02:50):
to worry about completing a pass. I don't have to
worry about that. They're huddling up and going over the
plays and all that. He just has to listen to
the quarterback, and I'll go out there and run out
and catch passes. Two point one million dollars per game.
If my math is correct, Signing bonus is about thirty
seven million one of those giant oversized cartoon checks. First year,
(03:12):
he'll make thirty eight million, Year two sixty nine point
nine million dollars, and then in year three ninety five
point seven. All those numbers are number one in the
entire NFL. So the actual value the actual retail value
of guaranteed money, meaning if Justin Jefferson stinks out loud
(03:34):
and smells like the bottom of weed man hippies feet
in South Florida, one hundred and ten million, guarantee one
hundred and ten million.
Speaker 3 (03:46):
The average annual value.
Speaker 1 (03:48):
And I always do this when I compare my money
to like Colin Cowherd or Rob Parker. I was like, Wow,
what's my average annual value? It's thirty five million per year.
That's the average annual value. So let us discuss a
lot of numbers. I was told by a boss early
on in my career, You're never supposed to give out
that many numbers on the radio.
Speaker 3 (04:06):
Bend.
Speaker 1 (04:06):
People are not paying that close attention. I just did
it because I'm.
Speaker 3 (04:10):
Bad at this.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
But the question what do you like and what do
you dislike about the Justin Jefferson extension with the Vikings.
So I've got Bullseye Moss and Biggie Smalls and we
will combine all of these things together.
Speaker 3 (04:27):
We'll throw them against the wall and see what sticks.
Speaker 1 (04:31):
So a the thing that I'll say first is about
the obvious, it's pointed out. Throw this out in the cosmos.
Is that business is booming. Maybe all of us, everyone
who's got a job, Maybe we all work in an
industry that is doing as well as professional football. In
the zeitgeist of America, the NFL is the opium of
(04:54):
the masses. We say it all the times, only getting
more like that. Just about every man, woman and child
who has as a little bit of the sporty gene.
Now not everyone's born with a sporty gene. There's a
lot of people out there in the world that aren't
like us. They're not sports people. They're bad people, as
we call them, bad people. But for everyone that's into
sports even a little bit, you end up hypnotized and
mesmerized by the product and the revenues.
Speaker 3 (05:17):
What do they do? Do they go up or do
they go down?
Speaker 1 (05:21):
It's like a rocket going out to out of space,
but not the vomit comet.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
No.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
No, it's like a rocket going out to out of space.
The Viking franchise, the Minnesota Vikings, are worth almost five
billion dollars. The Minnesota Vikings, yeah, four point six. Now
our guy Femi in Minnesota is starting a gofund that's
chump change to him. He's gonna get a gofund me
(05:46):
by the team, no problem. But now what we don't like.
The thing that we don't like here is that. And
I admit this is an age thing, but my entire
life I was raised watching football that receivers, while important,
are not that important that you can win.
Speaker 3 (06:05):
Kansas City this year won the Super Bowl.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
They had guys they literally took off Craigslist and they
signed him. They signed guys, Hey, you want to play
wide receiver for the Chiefs, and they won the Super Bowl,
and yet here the Minnesota Vikings are and again this
is more of my problem than anything else, But the
Vikings are forking over this amount of money to a
(06:30):
guys out on an island. Now it's a nice island,
it's very rich island. Good for him, But last I checked,
he can't throw himself the ball. He cannot throw himself
the ball, which means this is like shopping at the
bulls eye store. You going to the target, right, you're
going to target how many targets? Let's do some mal
of Matthew. How many targets is justin Jefferson going to
(06:50):
get per game? But we know what he has done.
Jefferson in his career has averaged nine point six targets
per game, so about ten a game, well, round up
ten a game. So you're paying him two million dollars
a little over two million a game, and you're gonna
throw them ball ten times, that's it. Out of roughly
(07:11):
sixty five to seventy five plays, give or take, you're
gonna throw the ball to him ten times. And so
far he's averaged six and a half catches per game.
All right, now, pitchdo is justin Jefferson the rich mine
in the world right now in the NFL outside of quarterbacks.
Speaker 3 (07:28):
Is he worth the money? Is he worth the money? Now?
Speaker 1 (07:32):
I know I just said very negative that I was
raised as a football fan that you should not overvalue
receivers that teams win all the time. Even in this era,
as we said, Kansas City, without having a super nova
at the wide receiver position, Chiefs have won the last two.
They got rid of therefoever wide receiver, the Cheatah, they
(07:53):
kicked him out of Kansas City, and they've won the
last two Super Bowls with guys like Marquez Valdez, Scantling
and that speed racer guy that likes to go really
fast around Dallas, that guy. So to answer the question, though,
is Justin Jefferson worth the money?
Speaker 3 (08:09):
Why?
Speaker 1 (08:09):
I admit I have neurosis when it comes my issue
here with paying a receiver that much money. That's a
me issue, that's my problem, right And Justin Jefferson he
has gone to the publisher and he has revised the
NFL record book and the numbers for that position are
mind boggling. The most receiving yards per game in his
(08:31):
career almost one hundred and ninety eight point three, which
is also an FM rock station in Toledo. You've also
got the youngest player in NFL history to lead the
league in receptions at receiving yards in a season. He
did that in twenty twenty two. Also most receiving yards
through I can go on and on. I mean every
fricking number for a receiver. It's justin Jefferson. But when
(08:53):
you take a couple of steps back, you got to
stare and you might want to get a power washer.
It's all about the moss in, Randy maw straight cash
homie or in this case, maybe a better analogy would
be the Beast Mode and Marshawn Lynch, as he famously said,
take care of you all, chickens. So this is fair
(09:14):
market value. The revenues keep going up. It's a multi
multi billion dollar industry. And good for Jefferson. Mazleta, you're
buying juicy Lucy's for everybody.
Speaker 3 (09:23):
Good for you.
Speaker 1 (09:24):
Now, the last part of this not to be a
negative person, because I am generally Benny Brightside on this show,
mister positive. But I do have to throw a little splash,
a little pinch of reality to this. How long does
this hunting moon one hundred and ten million dollar guaranteed
money hunting moon. How long does this last? For Justin
(09:45):
Jefferson in Minnesota? And as you know, I am a
distant relative of Nostradamus and friend of nostra Denis. I
also own a magic eight ball that was gifted to
me by a fan of the show. So I have
all those things. I am c I have eaten many
fortune cookies. If you know, it was very fat. I
(10:06):
had a lot of fortune cookies. I'm still large, so
I know fortunes. And the answer to the question how
long does this hunting moon period last for Justin Jefferson
in Minnesota is not long at.
Speaker 3 (10:16):
All, Not long at all.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
And I've got to about week seven, week eight of
this year. That's what I've got. Biggie Small's a croon
back years ago that more money, more problems, and that
would be the issue. The thing too, about this is
the idea, the premise, the very premise that if you
(10:40):
pay someone X amount of money, they will then be happy,
no matter what that is. We know that's not true.
That temporarily that is a pacifier, but long term there
are still issues and Jefferson, last I checked, will be
stepping into the black hole. Not the Raiders black hole,
(11:00):
that would be the quarterback room in Minnesota. For illustration
purposes only, I'll use my telestrator here on the radio.
But Justin Jefferson will be catching passes from that's right,
Sam Donald. And if Sam Darnold does not keep the job,
you probably won't the Vikings will go with the great
(11:23):
unknown JJ McCarthy. Yeah, the Sam JJ McCarthy who was
so good at Michigan. They often didn't have him throw
the ball because I know in my experience watching college
football in the modern era, when you have an elite
NFL quarterback, you hide the quarterback from defenses because college defenses, right,
(11:44):
I mean they you don't want to embarrass them. So
you have him throw eight to ten passes a game,
something like that. But that's JJ McCarthy. He's in line
panic picked by the Vikings, but he's in line to
be the quarterback. Now, maybe he'll make us all look
like jackasses and go out there and play well, but
that's not that exciting. If you're Justin Jefferson, you're not
all going ho. But if Minnesota the way I look
(12:05):
at this, kind of obviously, if Minnesota is a middling
team somewhere in that six and eleven, seven and ten area,
in a division with the Lions, who are going to
be good again, and the Packers, who everyone's slobbering all over.
They got their knee pads out for Jordan Love, they're
so excited for him. But we guarantee if the Vikings
(12:29):
are a mid level franchise, the middle class of the NFL,
teetering on the lower end, then Justin Jefferson will be
looking around for that gold plated transfer portal and up,
up and away as soon as possible, right, because life
does come at you fast, even in that tax bracket.
(12:52):
The first person that taught me that money cannot guarantee
happiness is a guy named Kevin Brown. I might not
know who that is.
Speaker 3 (13:01):
You got to be.
Speaker 1 (13:01):
You gotta have a certain age to know that. He's
a baseball player and a very good starting pitcher. The
Dodgers signed this cat to an s load of money,
but he didn't want to play on the West coast.
From Georgia and a nice house there and family's there.
He didn't want to play on the West Coast, But
the Dodgers threw in all these flights so he was
the highest paid pitcher in baseball, a ton of money,
a lot more than everyone else, and the biggest schmuck
(13:24):
in the biggest a hole, hated everyone, treated everyone like crap.
Speaker 3 (13:29):
As I recall and so.
Speaker 1 (13:31):
And he's like the richest guy. Say he hated everything,
He complained about everything. There's a surly schmuck. And so
I was like, if he's not happy, then there you go.
Money does not buy happy, although it certainly helps. It
gets you close. I will say, it does get you close,
and I'd like to have those problems. I would like
to have those problems.

in Boston. He's like, I been to ten thousand Celtic
and Bruined games because he works at the gardens, so
(15:32):
maybe he's been been to those those ten thousand games.
But our lead this hour from the NBA Finals. Now
you're probably thinking, well, there's no way you can do
a male monologue about the NBA Finals.
Speaker 3 (15:43):
There was no NBA.
Speaker 1 (15:43):
Finals game on Monday night, You dummy. I get that
they've got plenty of time to kill, plenty of time
to kill, circumcising the mosquito, as Jerry Jones would say.
But a couple of things caught my attention that I
think are worthy of some conversation. I hope you'll indulge
(16:04):
me and a couple of those things. So I was
seeing some comments about how the Boston fans should handle
their nemesis, as the Celtics and Mavericks will get started
on Thursday, Thursday, sometime in November, I think, or either that.
Speaker 3 (16:22):
Or this Thursday.
Speaker 1 (16:24):
So everything's under the microscope, right, you know that, I
know that we all know that everything's being picked over,
For example, the wisdom that has been dished out on
basketball fan decorum, which I always get a kick out of.
So you didn't see this, maybe not. Former Celtic Kendrick
Perkins has directed the patrons who will be in attendance
(16:46):
at the NBA Finals on Thursday to quote, leave Kyrie
the hell alone. The former Celtic said, you're not the
ones that have to go between those lines. So they
guard this man. The poetic Perkins said, implying. Obviously, even
for the people in the back of the room, like
(17:07):
Toning the Bay Area that are hammered, the implication is
that Irving will be extra motivated by the hecklers and
he'll prove the doubters wrong. All right, So let us
discuss the question the pundits advising the Boston fan to
not boo Kyrie Irving. Is this sound advice? So I've
(17:31):
got skunk taxi and jigsaw puzzle, and we will combine
all of these things together and we are going to
make a flamingo, which they're not.
Speaker 3 (17:45):
You know, they're not pink by birth. They're pink by
what they eat.
Speaker 5 (17:48):
But anyway, number WA.
Speaker 1 (18:02):
So to answer the question, is this sound advice? It
is advice. I would not put it in the sound
category using the mallor microscope, which is a different kind
of microscope. This is both equal parts unreasonable and unnecessary
to say something. You know, I know you have time
to fill. I have four hours a night in a
podcast on the weekend, so I know what it's like
to have time to fill.
Speaker 3 (18:23):
I get it.
Speaker 1 (18:24):
I understand that. But Kendrick Perkins to court our friends
in Australia sounds like a bloody rue is what he
sounds like. Here, tell me you don't know what you're
talking about. Without telling me you don't know what you're
talking about. Well, you can't say that, But Kendrick Perkins
played in the NBA for the Boston Celtics. He knows,
he knows what makes the Celtic fantic. No, that's fine,
(18:47):
congratulations you played in the NBA. But who knows more
about fans than this show where the show buy the
fans for the fans, all about the fans, and that's it, period.
Stop And the reason this is terrible advice, right, this
is personal. This is personal. This goes back years. Kyrie
and the Boston fans have been at loggerheads since he
(19:11):
told season ticket holders at a get together in Boston
that he was going to stay with the Celtics, only
to conspire in the hallways of the All Star Game
with his buddy KD to go to Brooklyn. So this
is personal. This is personal. And Kyrie Irving, who has
(19:31):
been a absolute firebrand. They're having a big garden party
starting on Thursday, and Kyrie is the skunk at the
garden party in this chapter of the book. That's the
way it is and Kendrick Perkins trying to tell the
fans that you shouldn't do this. We're going to inspire
(19:51):
Kyrie Irving is a load of manure, right, They're gonna inspire. Okay,
so that's true perhaps, but it's irrelevant and the reason
is irrelevant. Whoa, it's the NBA Finals. Are you telling
me that Kyrie was going to treat this like a
Wednesday night in November in a matchup against the Rockets.
He's just gonna gotta go through the motions. Come on,
(20:13):
that's silly. That's absolutely silly. Uh. There is a much
better chance, and I've looked into the future and I'm
never wrong about this stuff. There's a much better chance
that Kyrie Irving is so annoyed by the heckling, the
rhythmic chanting by the fan that he snaps. That's much
(20:36):
more of a possibility than Kyrie going out and averaging
forty five points a game and shooting eighty percent.
Speaker 3 (20:43):
From the floor and all that.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
Like, the fans can press his buttons. And we've seen
Kyrie lose his composure and become unglued. He's human, and
this is a volcanic situation, and the molten lava can
go flying out of Kyrie Irving depending on what magic
words are said by the fans in Boston now pays two,
(21:08):
keeping the theme of the malad monologue about Kyrie Irving.
Speaker 3 (21:12):
During the copious amounts of research.
Speaker 1 (21:14):
On this read some comments by Kyrie that I thought
were interesting from the last twenty four hour news cycle,
and this relates to Kyrie's activity in the Commonwealth. As
the Mavericks get ready to go into hostile territory to
take on the Boston basketball team. So Kyrie gave the
fans of the Green the number one number international sign
(21:40):
of love, the bird.
Speaker 3 (21:41):
The bird is the word. The bird is the word.
Speaker 1 (21:43):
Kyrie gave them the one fingered salute after hitting a
jumper in the corner. This was a couple of postseasons ago. Now,
my favorite Kyrie in Boston momon is when Kyrie wiped
his dirty shoe on Lucky the Leprach. That goes back
to twenty twenty one. You cannot mess with mascots. Do
(22:05):
you understand you cannot wipe your dirty, filthy, rotten shoe
on Lucky the Leprechaunt. I stand with mascots. Okay, Now,
Lucky the Leprechaun, good mascot. Not as good as Chuck
the condor my guy with the clips, not as good
as like the Philly Fanatic or Benny the Bull or,
but solid mascot. And Kyrie has such little integrity that
(22:30):
he wiped dirt.
Speaker 3 (22:32):
On Lucky the Leprechaunt.
Speaker 1 (22:34):
Yeah, okay, and we're supposed to be on Kyrie's side,
come on, And he admitted. The reason I bring this
up is because Kyrie admitted that the fans got to
him that he said the crap. He lost his crap
a little bit, although I cleaned that up for some reason,
we say crap. We can say pooh, we can say
I get a bunch of other words, but we can't
(22:55):
say the S word. We probably could, right, I mean
I probably could say the safe harbor. I'm captain of
the safe harbor ship. No is anyone gonna file a
complaint because we say the S word. Really, no one's
gonna do that, no anyway, all right, whatever. So that's
what Kyrie said. He said he lost his crap, if
(23:16):
you will, crap all the manure fertilizer because of the
fans in Boston. He then bragged in the same sound
bite He bragged that he has built for these moments.
He said that he has a healthy relationship with the fans.
He then for some reason talked about being a gladiator
and just winning the crowd over at the garden. So
(23:38):
he was all over the place. So let's discuss the
question on this part of the malamololague Kyrie Irving. Kyrie
Irving says he regrets giving the middle finger to the
fans there a couple of years ago thumbs up or
thumbs down in terms of Kyrie being truthful. So I'm
going to go thumbs down on this one. I am
(23:59):
ag gnostic on this. I'm not a believer. And here's why.
I'll tell you why. Because we believe Kyrie Irving. What
he's been doing the last month or so is performance art.
There's an actor who's been dead for a long time.
They have met a movie about his life years ago.
It was on a very popular TV show, which you
can still find on streaming services somewhere Taxi. This guy
(24:21):
named Andy Kaufman was a comedian and back in the
day he is in my lifetime. Andy Kaufman is. People
in entertainment say that he was the one guy that
never broke character that he was doing stick and whatever
Shticky was doing, he never broke, carried, never folded down.
(24:43):
And I will concede that Kyrie Irving has been able
to walk the line keep his nose clean the last
month and a half or so.
Speaker 3 (24:55):
But we have a lot.
Speaker 1 (24:56):
Of real estate to go, and there's water filled with sharks, uh,
just filled with sharks.
Speaker 6 (25:03):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (25:03):
There's there's all kinds of you know, deadly creatures around there.
And all it takes is one night where Kyrie shoots
two of ten in the first half and the fans
starts serenading him with things, and he gets upset and
then he does something, says something or all of the above.
Speaker 3 (25:22):
And then it's on. And then it is on all right.
Speaker 1 (25:25):
The final point, we moved from Boston to Dallas. That's
Big d where the mav Rags are hanging out on
their way to Boston. Here for the hype train. Now,
former NBA player pretty boy Chandler Parsons. You talk about
guys that got paid a lot of money to do nothing.
Chandler Parsons right up there. Anyway, Now he's getting paid
(25:47):
to give opinions because who wants to who wants to
go out in the world and not know what Chandler
Parsons thinks about things. So Chandler Parson says that no one,
no one likes Christops Porzingis in Dallas. He said, quote,
they do not like Porzingis in Dallas. Luca did not
like playing with him. There is an actual beef there.
(26:08):
Close quote It's like doctor South. I did not like
Green Eggs and Ham. I did not like Christops Porzingis
at all. I did not like.
Speaker 7 (26:18):
Him on the court. I did not like him on
the bench. I did not like him in planes. I
did not like him in automobiles. I did not like
Chris tops Orzingis. I'm a poet and I don't even
know it. So where are you at on this one?
Speaker 1 (26:30):
Where are you at on this story that Christops Porzingis
the unicorn hated in Dallas with his old team, the
mad Rex. So I'm actually gonna buy this one, even
though I just trash Chandler Parsons, I actually think this
is accurate. I think this is absolutely accurate because if
you remember the Jigsaw puzzle just in your in your head,
imagine the jigsaw puzzle. Porzingis was supposed to be the
(26:55):
one that put Luca on the launching pad and they
took off right, just like with Porzingis coming over there.
It's like I remember when the god was like, oh
my god, the Knickerbocker's got rid of Porzingis is unbelievable.
And Porzingis was the puzzle piece that was going to
put everything together, and it just didn't fit. It not
only didn't fit, it got wet and then you dropped
(27:15):
it behind the sofa and your dog ate it. That's
what I'm talking about, right. They were supposed to visit
Casablanca with Porzingis on one side and Luca on the other,
but instead there was this overwhelming cosmic struggle that took place.
And publicly they have played nice and you never believe
(27:36):
what people say in the meeting because they lie all
the time. But privately, I'm going beer and gasoline. Generally speaking,
beer and gasoline do not go well together. When you
also you mix in fireworks, that definitely does not does
not go well.

Speaker 6 (27:55):
Here we go, this is one big Ben gets gral Dal.
Speaker 8 (28:06):
Louke, Justin Kendrick Perkins made a recent TV appearance where
he called Chris Tops Porzingis the most important player in
the finals.
Speaker 1 (28:14):
Beneze right, Well, he's the only one nicknamed the unicorn.
But this is another bad take by Kendrick Perkins. Now,
the most important player in the NBA Finals is Jason Tatum.
He's been shooting the basketball terribly for the Celtics. Tatum,
if he lives up to the regular season player that
he has been the Celtics, there's no way they're going
to lose to the Dallas Maverick. So the Celtics don't
(28:36):
even need Porzinkis and all these talking heads. They gotta
have Perzingis to win the championship. It's bull crap. It's
bull crap, And I wouldn't be shocked that Perzingis goes
out there in Game one and plays five minutes and
gets hurt again.
Speaker 3 (28:47):
Next.
Speaker 8 (28:48):
In a post on his Instagram story, CJ. Stroud listed
his top five quarterbacks in the NFL based off of
last year, and he put himself at number three, after
Patrick Mahomes and Lamar Jackson.
Speaker 3 (28:58):
Ben do you agree with his reign?
Speaker 1 (29:00):
No? I don't because it's is he just basing it
on the regular season. If I'm not mistaken, he had
Dak Prescott in there.
Speaker 3 (29:06):
Dak Prescott Coe.
Speaker 1 (29:08):
He had Dak effing press Scott who puked all over
himself in the player. No, it's a dumb list bad
job by him, and I don't I don't engage in
list radio, Coop, I don't do that. But no, it's
and Lamar Jackson didn't he suck at a time you
cannot suck against the Chiefs as welcome on next.
Speaker 8 (29:26):
Jason Kelcey claimed on X that he never washes his
feet and to not listen to Big Soap.
Speaker 1 (29:33):
Yeah, Bend, you wash your feet occasionally. I've noticed, and
maybe I'm wrong on this. It's almost impossible not to
wash your feet when you're in the shower. It's just
it's impossible. And when you take a bath, it's also impossible.
I believe there was some sarcasm here, Coop by Jason Kelcey.
I think he was just engaging with the troll. Pretty sure. Uh,
(29:56):
he's just mocking Big Big, Big Pharma, Big Soap, is it?
Big Radio?
Speaker 3 (30:02):
Is it? Oh?
Speaker 1 (30:05):
Big trash? Watch out for Big Trash.

(01:40):
heads mall Man, our play hits. We'll go to Twin
Cities where the juicy Lucies are good. The football's eh,
the baseball eh, and the basketball tanked at the end.
But that is the epicenter, not for baseball, not for basketball.
It's seemed lost to the the Mavericks, but the epicenter
of the football new cycle. The eagle has landed, or
(02:02):
is that the Viking has gotten to the port and.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
Is not leaving.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
And if you did not here by now, maybe you're
just really bad at keeping track of stuff, because the
news has been out there for a while. But maybe
you missed it. Perhaps perhaps you did. We learned the
Minnesota Vikings have locked up and tossed away the key
for Justin Jefferson. He got paid, He got paid. How
(02:28):
much did he get paid? Well, four years. The total
value is up to one hundred and forty million dollars.
But when you break it down, well, just say this
one sentence, Justin Jefferson received the riches of Solomon or
in this case, the Viking ownership group Jefferson now the
highest paid non quarterback in the NFL. He never has
(02:50):
to worry about completing a pass. I don't have to
worry about that. They're huddling up and going over the
plays and all that. He just has to listen to
the quarterback, and I'll go out there and run out
and catch passes. Two point one million dollars per game.
If my math is correct, Signing bonus is about thirty
seven million one of those giant oversized cartoon checks. First year,
(03:12):
he'll make thirty eight million, Year two sixty nine point
nine million dollars, and then in year three ninety five
point seven. All those numbers are number one in the
entire NFL. So the actual value the actual retail value
of guaranteed money, meaning if Justin Jefferson stinks out loud
(03:34):
and smells like the bottom of weed man hippies feet
in South Florida, one hundred and ten million, guarantee one
hundred and ten million.
Speaker 3 (03:46):
The average annual value.
Speaker 1 (03:48):
And I always do this when I compare my money
to like Colin Cowherd or Rob Parker. I was like, Wow,
what's my average annual value? It's thirty five million per year.
That's the average annual value. So let us discuss a
lot of numbers. I was told by a boss early
on in my career, You're never supposed to give out
that many numbers on the radio.
Speaker 3 (04:06):
Bend.
Speaker 1 (04:06):
People are not paying that close attention. I just did
it because I'm.
Speaker 3 (04:10):
Bad at this.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
But the question what do you like and what do
you dislike about the Justin Jefferson extension with the Vikings.
So I've got Bullseye Moss and Biggie Smalls and we
will combine all of these things together.
Speaker 3 (04:27):
We'll throw them against the wall and see what sticks.
Speaker 1 (04:31):
So a the thing that I'll say first is about
the obvious, it's pointed out. Throw this out in the cosmos.
Is that business is booming. Maybe all of us, everyone
who's got a job, Maybe we all work in an
industry that is doing as well as professional football. In
the zeitgeist of America, the NFL is the opium of
(04:54):
the masses. We say it all the times, only getting
more like that. Just about every man, woman and child
who has as a little bit of the sporty gene.
Now not everyone's born with a sporty gene. There's a
lot of people out there in the world that aren't
like us. They're not sports people. They're bad people, as
we call them, bad people. But for everyone that's into
sports even a little bit, you end up hypnotized and
mesmerized by the product and the revenues.
Speaker 3 (05:17):
What do they do? Do they go up or do
they go down?
Speaker 1 (05:21):
It's like a rocket going out to out of space,
but not the vomit comet.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
No.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
No, it's like a rocket going out to out of space.
The Viking franchise, the Minnesota Vikings, are worth almost five
billion dollars. The Minnesota Vikings, yeah, four point six. Now
our guy Femi in Minnesota is starting a gofund that's
chump change to him. He's gonna get a gofund me
(05:46):
by the team, no problem. But now what we don't like.
The thing that we don't like here is that. And
I admit this is an age thing, but my entire
life I was raised watching football that receivers, while important,
are not that important that you can win.
Speaker 3 (06:05):
Kansas City this year won the Super Bowl.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
They had guys they literally took off Craigslist and they
signed him. They signed guys, Hey, you want to play
wide receiver for the Chiefs, and they won the Super Bowl,
and yet here the Minnesota Vikings are and again this
is more of my problem than anything else, But the
Vikings are forking over this amount of money to a
(06:30):
guys out on an island. Now it's a nice island,
it's very rich island. Good for him, But last I checked,
he can't throw himself the ball. He cannot throw himself
the ball, which means this is like shopping at the
bulls eye store. You going to the target, right, you're
going to target how many targets? Let's do some mal
of Matthew. How many targets is justin Jefferson going to
(06:50):
get per game? But we know what he has done.
Jefferson in his career has averaged nine point six targets
per game, so about ten a game, well, round up
ten a game. So you're paying him two million dollars
a little over two million a game, and you're gonna
throw them ball ten times, that's it. Out of roughly
(07:11):
sixty five to seventy five plays, give or take, you're
gonna throw the ball to him ten times. And so
far he's averaged six and a half catches per game.
All right, now, pitchdo is justin Jefferson the rich mine
in the world right now in the NFL outside of quarterbacks.
Speaker 3 (07:28):
Is he worth the money? Is he worth the money? Now?
Speaker 1 (07:32):
I know I just said very negative that I was
raised as a football fan that you should not overvalue
receivers that teams win all the time. Even in this era,
as we said, Kansas City, without having a super nova
at the wide receiver position, Chiefs have won the last two.
They got rid of therefoever wide receiver, the Cheatah, they
(07:53):
kicked him out of Kansas City, and they've won the
last two Super Bowls with guys like Marquez Valdez, Scantling
and that speed racer guy that likes to go really
fast around Dallas, that guy. So to answer the question, though,
is Justin Jefferson worth the money?
Speaker 3 (08:09):
Why?
Speaker 1 (08:09):
I admit I have neurosis when it comes my issue
here with paying a receiver that much money. That's a
me issue, that's my problem, right And Justin Jefferson he
has gone to the publisher and he has revised the
NFL record book and the numbers for that position are
mind boggling. The most receiving yards per game in his
(08:31):
career almost one hundred and ninety eight point three, which
is also an FM rock station in Toledo. You've also
got the youngest player in NFL history to lead the
league in receptions at receiving yards in a season. He
did that in twenty twenty two. Also most receiving yards
through I can go on and on. I mean every
fricking number for a receiver. It's justin Jefferson. But when
(08:53):
you take a couple of steps back, you got to
stare and you might want to get a power washer.
It's all about the moss in, Randy maw straight cash
homie or in this case, maybe a better analogy would
be the Beast Mode and Marshawn Lynch, as he famously said,
take care of you all, chickens. So this is fair
(09:14):
market value. The revenues keep going up. It's a multi
multi billion dollar industry. And good for Jefferson. Mazleta, you're
buying juicy Lucy's for everybody.
Speaker 3 (09:23):
Good for you.
Speaker 1 (09:24):
Now, the last part of this not to be a
negative person, because I am generally Benny Brightside on this show,
mister positive. But I do have to throw a little splash,
a little pinch of reality to this. How long does
this hunting moon one hundred and ten million dollar guaranteed
money hunting moon. How long does this last? For Justin
(09:45):
Jefferson in Minnesota? And as you know, I am a
distant relative of Nostradamus and friend of nostra Denis. I
also own a magic eight ball that was gifted to
me by a fan of the show. So I have
all those things. I am c I have eaten many
fortune cookies. If you know, it was very fat. I
(10:06):
had a lot of fortune cookies. I'm still large, so
I know fortunes. And the answer to the question how
long does this hunting moon period last for Justin Jefferson
in Minnesota is not long at.
Speaker 3 (10:16):
All, Not long at all.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
And I've got to about week seven, week eight of
this year. That's what I've got. Biggie Small's a croon
back years ago that more money, more problems, and that
would be the issue. The thing too, about this is
the idea, the premise, the very premise that if you
(10:40):
pay someone X amount of money, they will then be happy,
no matter what that is. We know that's not true.
That temporarily that is a pacifier, but long term there
are still issues and Jefferson, last I checked, will be
stepping into the black hole. Not the Raiders black hole,
(11:00):
that would be the quarterback room in Minnesota. For illustration
purposes only, I'll use my telestrator here on the radio.
But Justin Jefferson will be catching passes from that's right,
Sam Donald. And if Sam Darnold does not keep the job,
you probably won't the Vikings will go with the great
(11:23):
unknown JJ McCarthy. Yeah, the Sam JJ McCarthy who was
so good at Michigan. They often didn't have him throw
the ball because I know in my experience watching college
football in the modern era, when you have an elite
NFL quarterback, you hide the quarterback from defenses because college defenses, right,
(11:44):
I mean they you don't want to embarrass them. So
you have him throw eight to ten passes a game,
something like that. But that's JJ McCarthy. He's in line
panic picked by the Vikings, but he's in line to
be the quarterback. Now, maybe he'll make us all look
like jackasses and go out there and play well, but
that's not that exciting. If you're Justin Jefferson, you're not
all going ho. But if Minnesota the way I look
(12:05):
at this, kind of obviously, if Minnesota is a middling
team somewhere in that six and eleven, seven and ten area,
in a division with the Lions, who are going to
be good again, and the Packers, who everyone's slobbering all over.
They got their knee pads out for Jordan Love, they're
so excited for him. But we guarantee if the Vikings
(12:29):
are a mid level franchise, the middle class of the NFL,
teetering on the lower end, then Justin Jefferson will be
looking around for that gold plated transfer portal and up,
up and away as soon as possible, right, because life
does come at you fast, even in that tax bracket.
(12:52):
The first person that taught me that money cannot guarantee
happiness is a guy named Kevin Brown. I might not
know who that is.
Speaker 3 (13:01):
You got to be.
Speaker 1 (13:01):
You gotta have a certain age to know that. He's
a baseball player and a very good starting pitcher. The
Dodgers signed this cat to an s load of money,
but he didn't want to play on the West coast.
From Georgia and a nice house there and family's there.
He didn't want to play on the West Coast, But
the Dodgers threw in all these flights so he was
the highest paid pitcher in baseball, a ton of money,
a lot more than everyone else, and the biggest schmuck
(13:24):
in the biggest a hole, hated everyone, treated everyone like crap.
Speaker 3 (13:29):
As I recall and so.
Speaker 1 (13:31):
And he's like the richest guy. Say he hated everything,
He complained about everything. There's a surly schmuck. And so
I was like, if he's not happy, then there you go.
Money does not buy happy, although it certainly helps. It
gets you close. I will say, it does get you close,
and I'd like to have those problems. I would like
to have those problems.

in Boston. He's like, I been to ten thousand Celtic
and Bruined games because he works at the gardens, so
(15:32):
maybe he's been been to those those ten thousand games.
But our lead this hour from the NBA Finals. Now
you're probably thinking, well, there's no way you can do
a male monologue about the NBA Finals.
Speaker 3 (15:43):
There was no NBA.
Speaker 1 (15:43):
Finals game on Monday night, You dummy. I get that
they've got plenty of time to kill, plenty of time
to kill, circumcising the mosquito, as Jerry Jones would say.
But a couple of things caught my attention that I
think are worthy of some conversation. I hope you'll indulge
(16:04):
me and a couple of those things. So I was
seeing some comments about how the Boston fans should handle
their nemesis, as the Celtics and Mavericks will get started
on Thursday, Thursday, sometime in November, I think, or either that.
Speaker 3 (16:22):
Or this Thursday.
Speaker 1 (16:24):
So everything's under the microscope, right, you know that, I
know that we all know that everything's being picked over,
For example, the wisdom that has been dished out on
basketball fan decorum, which I always get a kick out of.
So you didn't see this, maybe not. Former Celtic Kendrick
Perkins has directed the patrons who will be in attendance
(16:46):
at the NBA Finals on Thursday to quote, leave Kyrie
the hell alone. The former Celtic said, you're not the
ones that have to go between those lines. So they
guard this man. The poetic Perkins said, implying. Obviously, even
for the people in the back of the room, like
(17:07):
Toning the Bay Area that are hammered, the implication is
that Irving will be extra motivated by the hecklers and
he'll prove the doubters wrong. All right, So let us
discuss the question the pundits advising the Boston fan to
not boo Kyrie Irving. Is this sound advice? So I've
(17:31):
got skunk taxi and jigsaw puzzle, and we will combine
all of these things together and we are going to
make a flamingo, which they're not.
Speaker 3 (17:45):
You know, they're not pink by birth. They're pink by
what they eat.
Speaker 5 (17:48):
But anyway, number WA.
Speaker 1 (18:02):
So to answer the question, is this sound advice? It
is advice. I would not put it in the sound
category using the mallor microscope, which is a different kind
of microscope. This is both equal parts unreasonable and unnecessary
to say something. You know, I know you have time
to fill. I have four hours a night in a
podcast on the weekend, so I know what it's like
to have time to fill.
Speaker 3 (18:23):
I get it.
Speaker 1 (18:24):
I understand that. But Kendrick Perkins to court our friends
in Australia sounds like a bloody rue is what he
sounds like. Here, tell me you don't know what you're
talking about. Without telling me you don't know what you're
talking about. Well, you can't say that, But Kendrick Perkins
played in the NBA for the Boston Celtics. He knows,
he knows what makes the Celtic fantic. No, that's fine,
(18:47):
congratulations you played in the NBA. But who knows more
about fans than this show where the show buy the
fans for the fans, all about the fans, and that's it, period.
Stop And the reason this is terrible advice, right, this
is personal. This is personal. This goes back years. Kyrie
and the Boston fans have been at loggerheads since he
(19:11):
told season ticket holders at a get together in Boston
that he was going to stay with the Celtics, only
to conspire in the hallways of the All Star Game
with his buddy KD to go to Brooklyn. So this
is personal. This is personal. And Kyrie Irving, who has
(19:31):
been a absolute firebrand. They're having a big garden party
starting on Thursday, and Kyrie is the skunk at the
garden party in this chapter of the book. That's the
way it is and Kendrick Perkins trying to tell the
fans that you shouldn't do this. We're going to inspire
(19:51):
Kyrie Irving is a load of manure, right, They're gonna inspire. Okay,
so that's true perhaps, but it's irrelevant and the reason
is irrelevant. Whoa, it's the NBA Finals. Are you telling
me that Kyrie was going to treat this like a
Wednesday night in November in a matchup against the Rockets.
He's just gonna gotta go through the motions. Come on,
(20:13):
that's silly. That's absolutely silly. Uh. There is a much
better chance, and I've looked into the future and I'm
never wrong about this stuff. There's a much better chance
that Kyrie Irving is so annoyed by the heckling, the
rhythmic chanting by the fan that he snaps. That's much
(20:36):
more of a possibility than Kyrie going out and averaging
forty five points a game and shooting eighty percent.
Speaker 3 (20:43):
From the floor and all that.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
Like, the fans can press his buttons. And we've seen
Kyrie lose his composure and become unglued. He's human, and
this is a volcanic situation, and the molten lava can
go flying out of Kyrie Irving depending on what magic
words are said by the fans in Boston now pays two,
(21:08):
keeping the theme of the malad monologue about Kyrie Irving.
Speaker 3 (21:12):
During the copious amounts of research.
Speaker 1 (21:14):
On this read some comments by Kyrie that I thought
were interesting from the last twenty four hour news cycle,
and this relates to Kyrie's activity in the Commonwealth. As
the Mavericks get ready to go into hostile territory to
take on the Boston basketball team. So Kyrie gave the
fans of the Green the number one number international sign
(21:40):
of love, the bird.
Speaker 3 (21:41):
The bird is the word. The bird is the word.
Speaker 1 (21:43):
Kyrie gave them the one fingered salute after hitting a
jumper in the corner. This was a couple of postseasons ago. Now,
my favorite Kyrie in Boston momon is when Kyrie wiped
his dirty shoe on Lucky the Leprach. That goes back
to twenty twenty one. You cannot mess with mascots. Do
(22:05):
you understand you cannot wipe your dirty, filthy, rotten shoe
on Lucky the Leprechaunt. I stand with mascots. Okay, Now,
Lucky the Leprechaun, good mascot. Not as good as Chuck
the condor my guy with the clips, not as good
as like the Philly Fanatic or Benny the Bull or,
but solid mascot. And Kyrie has such little integrity that
(22:30):
he wiped dirt.
Speaker 3 (22:32):
On Lucky the Leprechaunt.
Speaker 1 (22:34):
Yeah, okay, and we're supposed to be on Kyrie's side,
come on, And he admitted. The reason I bring this
up is because Kyrie admitted that the fans got to
him that he said the crap. He lost his crap
a little bit, although I cleaned that up for some reason,
we say crap. We can say pooh, we can say
I get a bunch of other words, but we can't
(22:55):
say the S word. We probably could, right, I mean
I probably could say the safe harbor. I'm captain of
the safe harbor ship. No is anyone gonna file a
complaint because we say the S word. Really, no one's
gonna do that, no anyway, all right, whatever. So that's
what Kyrie said. He said he lost his crap, if
(23:16):
you will, crap all the manure fertilizer because of the
fans in Boston. He then bragged in the same sound
bite He bragged that he has built for these moments.
He said that he has a healthy relationship with the fans.
He then for some reason talked about being a gladiator
and just winning the crowd over at the garden. So
(23:38):
he was all over the place. So let's discuss the
question on this part of the malamololague Kyrie Irving. Kyrie
Irving says he regrets giving the middle finger to the
fans there a couple of years ago thumbs up or
thumbs down in terms of Kyrie being truthful. So I'm
going to go thumbs down on this one. I am
(23:59):
ag gnostic on this. I'm not a believer. And here's why.
I'll tell you why. Because we believe Kyrie Irving. What
he's been doing the last month or so is performance art.
There's an actor who's been dead for a long time.
They have met a movie about his life years ago.
It was on a very popular TV show, which you
can still find on streaming services somewhere Taxi. This guy
(24:21):
named Andy Kaufman was a comedian and back in the
day he is in my lifetime. Andy Kaufman is. People
in entertainment say that he was the one guy that
never broke character that he was doing stick and whatever
Shticky was doing, he never broke, carried, never folded down.
(24:43):
And I will concede that Kyrie Irving has been able
to walk the line keep his nose clean the last
month and a half or so.
Speaker 3 (24:55):
But we have a lot.
Speaker 1 (24:56):
Of real estate to go, and there's water filled with sharks, uh,
just filled with sharks.
Speaker 6 (25:03):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (25:03):
There's there's all kinds of you know, deadly creatures around there.
And all it takes is one night where Kyrie shoots
two of ten in the first half and the fans
starts serenading him with things, and he gets upset and
then he does something, says something or all of the above.
Speaker 3 (25:22):
And then it's on. And then it is on all right.
Speaker 1 (25:25):
The final point, we moved from Boston to Dallas. That's
Big d where the mav Rags are hanging out on
their way to Boston. Here for the hype train. Now,
former NBA player pretty boy Chandler Parsons. You talk about
guys that got paid a lot of money to do nothing.
Chandler Parsons right up there. Anyway, Now he's getting paid
(25:47):
to give opinions because who wants to who wants to
go out in the world and not know what Chandler
Parsons thinks about things. So Chandler Parson says that no one,
no one likes Christops Porzingis in Dallas. He said, quote,
they do not like Porzingis in Dallas. Luca did not
like playing with him. There is an actual beef there.
(26:08):
Close quote It's like doctor South. I did not like
Green Eggs and Ham. I did not like Christops Porzingis
at all. I did not like.
Speaker 7 (26:18):
Him on the court. I did not like him on
the bench. I did not like him in planes. I
did not like him in automobiles. I did not like
Chris tops Orzingis. I'm a poet and I don't even
know it. So where are you at on this one?
Speaker 1 (26:30):
Where are you at on this story that Christops Porzingis
the unicorn hated in Dallas with his old team, the
mad Rex. So I'm actually gonna buy this one, even
though I just trash Chandler Parsons, I actually think this
is accurate. I think this is absolutely accurate because if
you remember the Jigsaw puzzle just in your in your head,
imagine the jigsaw puzzle. Porzingis was supposed to be the
(26:55):
one that put Luca on the launching pad and they
took off right, just like with Porzingis coming over there.
It's like I remember when the god was like, oh
my god, the Knickerbocker's got rid of Porzingis is unbelievable.
And Porzingis was the puzzle piece that was going to
put everything together, and it just didn't fit. It not
only didn't fit, it got wet and then you dropped
(27:15):
it behind the sofa and your dog ate it. That's
what I'm talking about, right. They were supposed to visit
Casablanca with Porzingis on one side and Luca on the other,
but instead there was this overwhelming cosmic struggle that took place.
And publicly they have played nice and you never believe
(27:36):
what people say in the meeting because they lie all
the time. But privately, I'm going beer and gasoline. Generally speaking,
beer and gasoline do not go well together. When you
also you mix in fireworks, that definitely does not does
not go well.
Speaker 2 (27:50):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Meller
Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific.
Speaker 6 (27:55):
Here we go, this is one big Ben gets gral Dal.
Speaker 8 (28:06):
Louke, Justin Kendrick Perkins made a recent TV appearance where
he called Chris Tops Porzingis the most important player in
the finals.
Speaker 1 (28:14):
Beneze right, Well, he's the only one nicknamed the unicorn.
But this is another bad take by Kendrick Perkins. Now,
the most important player in the NBA Finals is Jason Tatum.
He's been shooting the basketball terribly for the Celtics. Tatum,
if he lives up to the regular season player that
he has been the Celtics, there's no way they're going
to lose to the Dallas Maverick. So the Celtics don't
(28:36):
even need Porzinkis and all these talking heads. They gotta
have Perzingis to win the championship. It's bull crap. It's
bull crap, And I wouldn't be shocked that Perzingis goes
out there in Game one and plays five minutes and
gets hurt again.
Speaker 3 (28:47):
Next.
Speaker 8 (28:48):
In a post on his Instagram story, CJ. Stroud listed
his top five quarterbacks in the NFL based off of
last year, and he put himself at number three, after
Patrick Mahomes and Lamar Jackson.
Speaker 3 (28:58):
Ben do you agree with his reign?
Speaker 1 (29:00):
No? I don't because it's is he just basing it
on the regular season. If I'm not mistaken, he had
Dak Prescott in there.
Speaker 3 (29:06):
Dak Prescott Coe.
Speaker 1 (29:08):
He had Dak effing press Scott who puked all over
himself in the player. No, it's a dumb list bad
job by him, and I don't I don't engage in
list radio, Coop, I don't do that. But no, it's
and Lamar Jackson didn't he suck at a time you
cannot suck against the Chiefs as welcome on next.
Speaker 8 (29:26):
Jason Kelcey claimed on X that he never washes his
feet and to not listen to Big Soap.
Speaker 1 (29:33):
Yeah, Bend, you wash your feet occasionally. I've noticed, and
maybe I'm wrong on this. It's almost impossible not to
wash your feet when you're in the shower. It's just
it's impossible. And when you take a bath, it's also impossible.
I believe there was some sarcasm here, Coop by Jason Kelcey.
I think he was just engaging with the troll. Pretty sure. Uh,
(29:56):
he's just mocking Big Big, Big Pharma, Big Soap, is it?
Big Radio?
Speaker 3 (30:02):
Is it? Oh?
