Jerry had a little lamb, and that lamb came up
really small when it mattered. Most welcome in not beginning

(01:20):
told me I'm not gonna be a fake p one.
I'm gonna stay up late because of the weather delay
in Philly. The game ended late, so I'm gonna stay
up late, so we welcome in Spacoli. Who knows that
hey tire rack. For over forty years, ty Iraq has

and where they drive, ship fast end freeback by free
(01:42):
road hazard protection with convenient installation options like multile tire
installation tire i raq dot com the way tire buying
should be. And right off the bat, I've been told
by my crew here they said, you know, you must
address the lunatics, the whack of noodles that are on
social media that are they really think they programmed the show.
(02:06):
They think they programmed the show. So a number of
these nut jobs get very upset. So out of a courtesy,
I will send out if you follow the show on
x it's kind of an interactive situation.
Speaker 3 (02:17):
We do this in real time.
Speaker 1 (02:18):
If your podcast listener just fast forward through this part
even though we're doing this live. So normally what happens
is I will send out right before the show begins.
Speaker 3 (02:26):
I will send out.
Speaker 1 (02:27):
A little menu, you know, the soup of the day,
what we have on the dessert menu today, and I
will send that out as a way for you to
have somebody to look forward to dear like God, it's good,
like you actually look forward to this crap. And then
sometimes I'm so busy I don't have time to do that.
You know, I have staff of thousands that work on
the show, being the overnight guy, so I did not
(02:49):
have a chance to send that out, but I will
do that later.
Speaker 3 (02:51):
I'm efforting. That is that we're supposed to say. Efforting.
I think you're supposed say everything. Yes, yes, according to
my friend Larta, we're efforting to get that out.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
So we will have that out within the hour. If
you're listening in real time and listening live.
Speaker 3 (03:05):
But our lead this hour is from Phildelphia.
Speaker 1 (03:09):
The curtain and the championship banner went up to the rafters.
There was raised the twenty twenty five NFL season. Were
you watching, well, probably probably, I mean just had to
get a really good rating, really good rating. Cowboys were involved,
and so you had Jalen Hurts. We told you yesterday
(03:32):
and one of the many Draft Kings commercials that Jalen
Hurts scoring a touchdown seemed like a good idea to us.
He did not only one, but two touchdowns. So Jalen
Hurts rushing for two scores The Eagles with stood a
rare although not quite as rare as it should be,
weather delay, and they needed a late stop to beat
(03:53):
the Cowboys twenty four to twenty, game ending early in
the overnight hours in philadel For you, there is the
sixty five minute delay. A wild start to the NFL season.
Looked like the game would be in the forties in
the first half. The Eagles led twenty four to twenty
with four forty four to go in the third court.
(04:15):
So fours across the board, fours across the board.
Speaker 3 (04:19):
And then the yeah.
Speaker 1 (04:22):
And then the game was delayed I mentioned for sixty
five minutes because.
Speaker 3 (04:26):
Of lightning in the area. We'll get to that some
point later on in the show around Lincoln Financial Field.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
So the game ended up just after midnight. I love
these people that are used to working during the day.
They get so freaked out.
Speaker 3 (04:37):
Oh my god, Mike Tarico, I thought it was got
have a heart attack. On NBC. He was, Oh my god,
the game in after mid no Oh my god.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
Hey Mike, there's people up overnight, you dope, they work
the overnight shift.
Speaker 3 (04:47):
You're moron.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
You might want to acknowledge the people that drive trucks
and work in factories and make donuts. So when your
fat ass goes to the donut shop, you can eat
a donut in the morning. They're making them overnight. Okay,
So I oh, I can't believe what we ended it
after midnight?
Speaker 3 (05:01):
Holy crap. Anyway, the Cowboys had a chance. They had
multiple chances.
Speaker 1 (05:06):
Now Dak Press got through an incomplete pass on a
fourth down and three. That was the final blow with
one fifty four to go, the last gasp. The better story, though,
is in the losing locker room. The better story is
in the losing locker room.
Speaker 3 (05:19):
We had the.
Speaker 1 (05:20):
Debut of Shatzi or Shady Brian Schottenheimer. He took over
as the coach. He's the latest sock puppet for Jerry Jones.
And there's this story within the story here. If you
saw the game, I believe you know where we're going
with this. So many pointing the finger at CD Lamb
(05:43):
and that's the Dallas pass catcher. In fact, even Ceedee
Lamb was pointing the fingers that who was pounding his
chest like at the end of the game, kind of hey,
blame me, it was my fault.
Speaker 3 (05:51):
Bad job by me.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
He melted down in the fourth quarter of this game
with multiple drop passes and voting a backbreaker for the Cowboys.
Speaker 3 (06:02):
So let us discuss is.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
It inbounds or is it out of bounds to blame
Cedee Lamb for the Cowboys loss. So is it inbounds
to blame Ceedee Lamb for the Cowboys loss or out
of bounds? So my thoughts on this, I've got Marvel Comics, iPhones,
and Hermit Crab and we will combine all of these
things together and we are going to make Cotton Candy,
(06:26):
which is about as tough as the Cowboys defense was
early in that game. Now a better second half for
Dallas defensively, But it's not about that. This is about
the story within the story. Cee d Lamb hole Lee crap.
Speaker 3 (06:41):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
Now, he did have seven catches for one hundred and
ten yards. That's a good stat line if you play
fantasy football. But in terms of the making a play
when it mattered, he did not. Here is the head
coach of the Dallas Cowboys, Brian Schottenheimer. Brian Schottenheimer commenting
on the night of Ceedee Lamb take, I don't.
Speaker 4 (07:02):
Worry about Sea Lamb.
Speaker 5 (07:03):
Cee.
Speaker 4 (07:03):
He's gonna be fine. What a great player.
Speaker 5 (07:06):
Again, Yeah, this was a This.
Speaker 4 (07:08):
Was a team defeat, and we own that. You know,
we understand where we can go as a football team.
We understand. I love the competition. I thought guys competed
their butts off. I thought that was great. But we're
all about winning, and we didn't win tonight, and so
therefore it's not good enough.
Speaker 5 (07:22):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (07:22):
If I was Jerry Jones, I'd fire Shotenheimer right now.
I'd say, all right, you're not allowed to go back
to Dallas.
Speaker 3 (07:27):
You're a dope. Uh No, how about some accountability? How
about your guy, your mister one hundred million dollar man?
Fed up? Why can't we say that?
Speaker 1 (07:38):
Oh my god, what was it gonna rain down lightning
like it did in Philadelphia there when the game was delayed?
If you say that, like this is the stuff about
sports that just drives me insane.
Speaker 3 (07:49):
Like they just think.
Speaker 1 (07:51):
You're a moron. The customer is a dope. You can't
acknowledge what everyone sees. Right, you're the one hundred million
dollar oh man, you're supposed to be the difference maker.
It's like Marvel Comics. I learned this from my friend
Spider Man. With great power comes great responsibility. You're a
(08:11):
one hundred million dollar receiver. That means when the ball's
in the air and it hits your hands in the
fourth quarter, you've got to make the play. You don't
get to play well. I had seven catches for one
hundred and ten yards, card and your coach can defend
your Well, it's a team loss.
Speaker 3 (08:29):
Empty.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
Those are empty calories. They're empty stats by Ceedee Lamb
and Jerry Jones.
Speaker 3 (08:35):
Cowboys.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
They pay this guy to be a special ingredient. Not
everyone is treated the same.
Speaker 3 (08:42):
We know that. Oh, it's a meritocracy. No, it's not.
Everyone's treated a little bit differently. Right. The stars get
a little more wiggle room. This is the thing.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
You get one hundred million dollars that is supposed to
separate you from a guy on the Winnipeg Blue Bombers. Okay,
any Jibbrody can go there and dropped the ball in
crunch time.
Speaker 3 (09:03):
That's not one hundred million dollars receiver. But wait, there's more.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
How about the other receiver George Pickens, who I think
had more success picking buggers out of his nose than
he did in this game. He coming over from Pittsburgh.
Three catches for thirty yards. You know what, that makes
him a jar, just a receiver, and you can find
those guys anywhere also.
Speaker 3 (09:24):
But I want to go back to Cede Lamb.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
Ceede Limb is supposed to be more right, and I
don't want to live in a world you.
Speaker 3 (09:31):
Can't criticize the bone as the team loss. I trust him?
How would you trust him?
Speaker 1 (09:36):
How many times the sports that we've seen when players
get the yips, sometimes they never recover from that.
Speaker 3 (09:42):
That was a yips game. Yepity, yippity yip yip. It
was a yep game.
Speaker 1 (09:46):
Right, don't let that distract you, all right, that the
coaches out there, Sore has a team lot.
Speaker 3 (09:53):
This was Lamb when it mattered. He shrank, right, he shrank.
Speaker 1 (09:59):
He was the guy who was wide open hero down
four touchdown, you have the lead pressure on the Eagles,
and he tripped over his own kid. You know it's
like if you ever go to Times Score, you know
those ripoff spider Man, ripoff characters, like a rip off
spider Man that tripped over his own cape in Times
Square in a photo thing trying to you know, hustle
(10:21):
people for money, like do better be better? That's the
whole job description when you're being paid to be the superhero.
It's like when you make a movie and the movie tanks.
Do you say, well, we all were bad in the movie,
or do you say with the headliner of the movie sucked.
You don't blame the extras in the movie. Like, that's
not how any of this works. Where you it bothers
(10:44):
me when it's money time, poof, poof. This is the Cowboys.
The stars vanished and now it's not all on CD Lamb. Though,
we got to pass the buck over to Dak Prescott.
How did you grade Dak Prescott's performance for the Cowboys?
So he wasn't in the very front of the Vomit comet,
(11:07):
that was Cedee Lamb. However, he was riding shotgun in
the Vomit Comet. Dak Prescott now drops aside he was
an NGE not good enough performer. NNGE not good enough.
This was supposed to be and it is a measuring sticky.
Now we assume the position that the Cowboys are not
(11:30):
going to be a playoff team. They weren't a playoff
team last year. They have a worse team this year
than they did last year. But that's the assumption. You
can change assumptions by your performance. The Eagles and Cowboys
this is an nfcast grudge match which started with one
of the key Eagle defenders ejected for spitting a nice
juicy loogie the direction of Dak Prescott, who had spin
(11:53):
on the ground and some Eagle fans.
Speaker 3 (11:55):
We'll see Derek spit.
Speaker 1 (11:56):
We'll talk more about this later, but Dak spit on
the ground and they I think that's equal to a
loogie being spit by Jalen Carter on Dak Prescott. But
in terms of Dak's performance, I would have rather had
some phlegm in the second and a half.
Speaker 3 (12:10):
That would have done better. Right, And so what Dak?
Speaker 1 (12:14):
If you look at this as a measuring stick in
the second half, he also shriveled, shriveled up.
Speaker 3 (12:20):
Now he didn't get help from cdee Lamb.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
But at halftime, as I was observing, you could say, hey,
Dak was fine.
Speaker 3 (12:27):
I wouldn't say he was great.
Speaker 1 (12:28):
In the first half. Would you say it was great.
I wouldn't say it was great. I thought he was fine.
Speaker 3 (12:32):
Uh, he wasn't terrible.
Speaker 1 (12:34):
He passed the test. You know, the last person that
graduates medical school they call a doctor. You know, they
still call him a doctor. That Dak Prescott wasn't killing
the Cowboys, he wasn't killing the Eagles.
Speaker 3 (12:47):
But then in the second half.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
It was how low can you go? It was how
low can you go? In the second half? How bad
was it? It was cover your eyes bad. Dakota after
halftime was nine of seventeen passing. He completed a little
less than fifty five percent of his passes, averaged three
(13:10):
point five yards per pass. That's I mean cheap, my god.
That is a referendum on Dak Prescott. And this is
one of the arguments that Dak Prescott, you know, he
got paid and Jerry Jones has gotten played because he's
a fraud. Dak Prescott, he's a phony quarterback that puts
up numbers against god awful teams and then went against
better teams. He doesn't elevate people, and he doesn't rise
(13:34):
to the challenge and all that. And that's the argument.
And if you had done a blind side by side
examination and said, okay, here's quarterback A and here's quarterback B,
and their performance in the say and a half, you
would have said, was that Anthony.
Speaker 3 (13:50):
Richardson or I mean that that's Dak Press.
Speaker 1 (13:53):
That's an Anthony Richardson stat line outside of he didn't
quit and take himself out of the game like that
gutlass Anthony Richardson. Or the other thing is he said,
well he didn't turn the ball over. But you know,
Richardson the definition of bad losing your job to Daniel Jones,
but just a scattershot short arming throws, totally lost in
(14:14):
the moment, and Jerry Jones could have gone out and
gotten a guy from the XFL to do all that.
Dak Prescott in the second half, you know, he was like,
if you didn't didn't hear the game or see the game,
Dak was like one of those iPhones, you know, one
of those older iPhones where the battery says forty percent
and then you open up your Instagram app and then
it dies within a second.
Speaker 3 (14:32):
As soon as you open it up. You're like, well,
so he said forty percent, but it died. Why did
it die? It said forty percent supposed to last.
Speaker 1 (14:37):
Well, well, no, it died right away because the battery
is defective, and you're like, what the hell happened here?
Just shut down, Dak. He turned into a pumpkin after halftime,
and he did get some help. Ceedee Lamb did help
him by dropping a pass. But even if that catch
had been made by Cede Lamb, it still was not
a wonderful second half performance by Dak Prescott. Now, last word,
(15:01):
So we had celebrities in the house. NBC, if you
were watching the broadcast, made sure to shove this.
Speaker 3 (15:07):
Down our throats.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
Were you surprised that Michael Jordan, the greatest basketball player ever,
Michael Jordan.
Speaker 3 (15:15):
Was at the Eagles game?
Speaker 5 (15:17):
All right?
Speaker 1 (15:17):
So I was I was surprised. I'm not gonna say
here say I wasn't surprised mj showing up at an
NFL opener. It's kind of like going in your backyard
and seeing a unicorn. You don't expect to see a
unicorn in your backyard. You don't think you'd see a
unicorn because unicorns aren't real, But there's a unicorn in
your backyard. Like this is the living legend, the basketball
(15:39):
equivalent of a five star general, Michael Jordan, And he
doesn't just pop out for any Tom Dick and Harry
sporting Man. And mainly the main reason I'm surprised is
because he's a recluse in terms of the sports world.
He doesn't need to ever leave his mansion, his casa.
Speaker 3 (15:58):
He doesn't need to.
Speaker 1 (15:59):
Like Jordan's about his public as a hermit crab in
a titanium shell. Right, He's richer than rich, He's oligark rich.
And yet here we are. This is MJ's second football
game this week. As he sat through I think he
left at halftime, the Bill Belichick debacle for his Tar
Hills getting squashed flatter than a soda can under a steamroller.
(16:20):
That's two games in one week. You know, the odds
on that, the odds on that. That's like the Pope
making it back to back knights at a dive bar
down the street from the Vatican, Right, you wouldn't expect
to see that either. So Jordan was at the game
as a guest we are told of Jalen Hurts. So
then it makes a little more sense because this wasn't
(16:40):
just MJ saying I got to watch.
Speaker 3 (16:41):
A football game, you know.
Speaker 1 (16:42):
Wasn't that you wouldn't feel nostalgic for some pig skin.
Wasn't that at all? He was there as a Jalen
Hurts vip. It's all part of that Jordan brand.
Speaker 3 (16:52):
Mafia.
Speaker 1 (16:53):
Hurts is a disciple, a disciple of Michael Jordan. And
then with Jalen Hurts hitting the Jordan shrug after one
of the touchdowns that he scored, that was pure Hollywood.
It's almost like that was scripted and made for TV.
You had the NBC cameras drooling like a dog over
at t Bone. They're all excited, all horny because they
get show Jordan. He got a no show job, like
(17:14):
Kawhi has, Jordan will be spewing cliches on NBC when
the basketball season starts here before long man, it's already September,
so the season starts around Halloween, so it'll be here
before you know it. But it was a nod to
the goat by Jalen Hurts there, and that was the moment.

Speaker 3 (18:44):
Of another hour of the Ben Mahlor Show.
Speaker 1 (18:47):
We are in the air everywhere as we stay in touch,
and we think we could be the bomb Digg Diggity
Bomb Coach, Border the Motor and beyond on the mass
and magnificently powerful microphones of FSR am monating live from
(19:10):
the bodega. It's Benny's Bodega for your over the radio
remedies and try that.
Speaker 3 (19:17):
Deli count over there.
Speaker 1 (19:18):
They got the nice cold cuts, some gabbaghool from the
world famous Fox Sports Radio studios. As we do it live,
do it live all night long here hanging out, and
this portion of the Ben Maler Show made possible in
part by our friends at ti raq. That's right, Alf
and Fergdog and Kathy and Madison. For over forty years,
(19:41):
ti Iraq has been helping customers like Jonathan and Delaware
find the right tires for how, what and where they drive,
ship fast and free back by free road hazard protection
with convenient installation options like mobile tire installation. I know
Natron in Nokale likes that tire i Raq the Way
tire buying show.
Speaker 5 (20:04):
Me.
Speaker 1 (20:06):
So I was talking in one of our production meetings.
We have a lot of production meetings. We have a
table read during the day. We don't just show up
here and roll in and do the show. There's a
lot that goes into it. A lot that goes into it,
and I'm so lucky to have a job.
Speaker 3 (20:20):
I'm I'm.
Speaker 1 (20:22):
I guess I'm middle aged, maybe a little older than that.
Now I'm getting older and I have a job where
I talk about people spitting and I get paid for it.
I mean, what a great world we live in. So
I leave this hour is from Philadelphia. The Eagles held
off the Cowboys and they edged the Dallas there Delaware
Valley game that ended after midnight in Philly because of
(20:44):
long delay.
Speaker 3 (20:45):
We'll talk more about that in a minute because of
the lightning.
Speaker 1 (20:48):
But the story within the story happened before the first
snap from scrimmage. So if you saw this or we're
listening to it on the radio, if you're blind, you
didn't see it, but you heard about on the radio.
Perhaps you though if you were not paying attention. So
Eagles defensive tackle Jalen Carter. Didn't this guy have a
reputation in college of being a hothead. Well, he's been
(21:08):
a boy scout for the most part in the NFL,
but not on this night. Jalen Carter, the Eagles defensive tackle,
he did not play a down, not a down before
he was ejected get out of here, Go take a shower.
Speaker 3 (21:21):
You're done, go right now.
Speaker 1 (21:25):
This happened during an injury time out injury timeout after
the kickoff, one of the Eagles special teams players was
all mangled and messed up. I mean, what a way
to start the year. And the Cowboys offense was on
the field. They were huddled up. When Jalen Carter went
over there, there was an interaction with Dakota Prescott. Carter
ended up being caught on candid camera spatting a loogie,
(21:49):
a big juicy lougie right at Cowboy quarterback dak Prescott,
before turning and leaving the scene of the crime. Now,
Prescott motioned to the official who was stick right there
and flagged and immediately throughout Jalen Carter. You must protect
quarterbacks from lugi's at all costs. Well, later on there
(22:10):
was a bruder film like coverage, frame by frame breakdowns,
and it turns out there was a second spinner. There
was a second spinner, and that spitter was Dakota Prescott.
Speaker 3 (22:22):
MG. So dak Scott, we came to learn after the fact.
Speaker 1 (22:26):
He had spit some phlegm, not a full lougie, more
phlem right there. On the ground in front of Jalen Carter.
Now that led to some Sicka Fhan to derange the
members of the Philadelphia fandom who may or may not
be related to Fats in Philadelphia who lit himself on
fire for our show during the pandemic.
Speaker 3 (22:48):
They said, well, the refs overreacted.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
This was a spit versus spit, eye for an eye,
spit for a spit, Lugi for alugi. This guy should
not have been should not have been ejected. It's a
bad job by the referees. So that's a good jumping
off point. Let us discuss now the question did did the.
Speaker 3 (23:09):
Eagles defensive tackle Jaalen Carter.
Speaker 1 (23:12):
Deserve to be kicked out of the NFL opener for
spitting on the Cowboys quarterback?
Speaker 3 (23:19):
So I have my observations. I've got weird science.
Speaker 1 (23:23):
Arcade and burpies, okay, and we'll combine all of these
things together and we are gonna make your Babushka's favorite
sugar cookies is what we're going to make. Absolutely, So
before we get fully into this, let's get some flavor.
We have some audio postgame audio from the scene of
the crime there in Philadelphia on a rainy night in
(23:45):
the City of Brotherly Love. Let's start out with Nick Sirianni.
Everyone's got a take.
Speaker 3 (23:49):
On this logie.
Speaker 1 (23:51):
So here is Eagles coach Nick Sirianni. I'm sure he's
gonna rip Jalen Carter, but here's the Eagles coach, his
take on what happened.
Speaker 3 (23:57):
Take a listen.
Speaker 8 (23:58):
Yeah, I'm gonna keep all our conversation and all my
disciplinary things in house.
Speaker 3 (24:03):
Oh we got to do to fix it as coaches?
Speaker 5 (24:05):
Is it something where you might take disciplinary.
Speaker 8 (24:08):
Action against jail again. I will keep everything in house
and we will we will. Uh, you won't ever get
that from me. We'll all, we will. Everything will always
be handled in house, just like private conversations that I
have with players. None of that, none of that will
ever be out to you guys. I'm sorry.
Speaker 3 (24:25):
Of course it's unless it's on NFL films and then
it'll be broadcast. But we can't do that anymore.
Speaker 1 (24:30):
They've ruined, they've ruined hard knocks and things like that
because the players are so soft and the coach is
apparently soft too. That's not like a soft coach to me.
A real doesn't a real leader, doesn't a real leader
come out and say this is embarrassing. I'm gonna you know,
this guy's I'm gonna punish his ass, not Nick Sirianni,
what a coward. All right, here's Dak Prescott. We learned
he was the first spitterer. Here's the code of Prescott's
(24:52):
take on Spitgate. Take a listen.
Speaker 9 (24:54):
I'll probably spent a thousand times throughout the game. I
mean especially game that maybe even in general and something
I guess I'm not proud of. But in that case,
he was trolling. I guess you could say, trying to
mess with Tyler Booker. I was just looking at him.
I was right here about the two linemen, and I
guess I needed to spit and I wouldn't gonna spend
on my liman, and I just spit ahead. But I
would say he was back there where Joelry was in
(25:15):
that sense, and he asked, or he goes, you're trying.
Speaker 3 (25:18):
To spin on me.
Speaker 9 (25:19):
And at that point, I mean, I felt like like
like he was insulting me, like I don't I wouldn't
spend on somebody. I'm damn su You're not trying to
spin on you, like we're about to play a game.
Speaker 1 (25:28):
So that was his way of saying, I'm a better
person than that other guy because I don't spit on people.
Speaker 3 (25:32):
That guy spin on me. Let's do the math on that.
How about this?
Speaker 1 (25:36):
Dak Prescott says he spits a thousand times a day,
So three hundred and sixty five days a year. That
means Dak Prescott spits three hundred and sixty five thousand
dollars three and sixty five thousand times.
Speaker 3 (25:47):
Not dollars he gets paid that probably.
Speaker 1 (25:49):
Per day, but three hundred and sixty five thousand loogies
per day per year, that's a lot.
Speaker 3 (25:54):
That's a lot. All right. Let's hear from the man
of the hour though, a player that.
Speaker 1 (25:58):
Was ejected before the first play from scrimmage, Jalen Carter,
what do you have to say for yourself?
Speaker 10 (26:05):
I heard the rough talking and then I heard him
say this is a tosson ball offense or something like that,
and that's when I know, did you have a conversation
with Nick and ex with the what kind of message
did he y? I know I didn't have a conversation yet,
I know we're going to have that conversation. They had
to focus on the game. Still, I don't want to
be strapping from the game. You know, are you worried
about the new people?
Speaker 3 (26:26):
Uh?
Speaker 10 (26:26):
I get you know that text what I call and
a lot of conversation that Will had as now you know,
I walked off to feel calmly.
Speaker 3 (26:33):
I was not mad. That's pretty much.
Speaker 10 (26:35):
I couldn't really do nothing else, you know.
Speaker 3 (26:36):
The REP decision is the rough decision on the situation.
Speaker 10 (26:39):
When things started to come out and you started seeing
things that if you can go off that, but I
don't got nothing to say about it, you know.
Speaker 3 (26:45):
All right, I got a lot a lot of ambient
noise there in the locker room from Jalen Carter.
Speaker 1 (26:50):
So again the question that we jumped off on was
eagle defensive tackle jailing Carter? Did he deserve to be
kicked out considering that he retaliate after Dak Prescott spit first.
So absolutely, one thousand percent, Jalen Carter deserved to be
kicked out. You cannot do that in twenty twenty five.
(27:10):
It is not nineteen seventy five. Back when I was younger,
I used to watch these NFL films documentaries back when
they were good. Was a mom and pop operation, and
there were guys gouging player's eyes, twisting face mask, leg
whipping was going on, tripping, spitting hell. Some of them
were practically biting each other's fingers off. Back then, it
(27:31):
was thunderdome. Today, it's weird science. Today, it's where it suns.
Everything is under the PC microscope of your corporate overlords
at the NFL. There are cameras in every crevice of
the field and your body. Dak Prescott did spit, but
he spat on the ground. Spoiler alert. That is allowed.
(27:53):
It is allowed. Dirt is fair game. Now someday there'll
be a lawyer that represents dirt and will sue and say, well,
dirt has feelings. You can't spin on dirt. And then
some other dumb people will support the lawyer who supports
the dirt, and then there'll be a fund of money
to pay for the dirt.
Speaker 3 (28:13):
But we're not at that point yet. Give us a
few years.
Speaker 1 (28:15):
So Dak Prescott spit first, but he who spits second
gets caught. Plus, you can't be out there hawking loogies
on people like you're a caveman.
Speaker 3 (28:29):
Right.
Speaker 1 (28:29):
It's disgusting, it's inconsiderate, it's rude. You're not the hawk
to a girl. Stop it, knock it off. What's wrong
with you?
Speaker 5 (28:37):
You're gonna get in that hawk? Dude spin on that day.
Speaker 1 (28:41):
Yeah, nobody wants to see that on the field. Now,
maybe in some other environments they want to see that,
but not on the field. Okay, nobody wants to hear
that sound on the field either. That man makes your
skin crawl. And I don't know what they're teaching today,
but when I was in kindergarten, kindergarten, I was taught.
I was taught, now, keep your bodily fluids to yourself.
This is the NFL opener. It's not some middle school
(29:03):
locker room, Pop Warner All Star team or anything like that.
Speaker 3 (29:06):
It's Neanderthal stuff.
Speaker 1 (29:08):
You got seventy thousand whatever fans there in Philadelphia, millions
of people pretending to pay attention, watching on television, and
Jalen Carter decides it's time to unload his sinuses onto
another human being.
Speaker 3 (29:20):
Now.
Speaker 1 (29:20):
Now, there was cartoon I sed to like called the Flintstones.
You're not Fred Flintstone there spitting off the side of
a dinosaur crane.
Speaker 3 (29:27):
You're not doing that. It's the NFL.
Speaker 1 (29:29):
Everyone's watching in high def everyone's watching. And again the
whole neanderthal thing, stop acting like Captain Caveman. It's gross,
it's stupid, and chose a complete lack of understanding of
what you can and cannot do. And also like the
whole opponent thing and sportsmanship and all that. Now, listen,
(29:50):
if you want to be a tough guy, go out.
Speaker 3 (29:52):
There and just dominate the line of scrimmage.
Speaker 1 (29:55):
But hawking a loogie does not necessarily work. And who
in their right mind thinks they're gonna be able to
get away with that? Right?
Speaker 3 (30:02):
And then who thinks that's a power move power move
power move to do that. It's not very intimidating, it's not.
It's it's kind of like, you know, back when I
was playing in the in the sandbox, you know, you're
you're throwing sand in the sandbox when you don't get
your way.
Speaker 1 (30:17):
Well, that's not good either. You're not supposed to do that.
You're not supposed to throw sand in the sandbox. You
shouldn't accept this sandbox. The NFL sandbox is different. The
sandbox does not have fifteen thousand cameras, replay officials, one
hundred million dollar broadcast deals attached to it. So Jalen Carter,
keep your flem to yourself all right now, page two. So,
(30:39):
how how should coach Nick Sirianni? Mister, I'm gonna keep
it in the house. I'm not gonna say anything. How
should coach Nick Sirianni be feeling about the Eagles after
they won this game? Cowboys won the statu sheet, Eagles
won the game. So on my scorecard, I wrote down
concerned capital c concern capital.
Speaker 3 (31:01):
See if I'm the Eagles here, you can be in denials.
Oh we're the champs. Man be a total meathead fan
and not live in the real world. But I live
in the real world, and as an objective voice of
reason overnight, there are problems in Philadelphia.
Speaker 1 (31:16):
There are problems with that Philadelphia Eagle team. And let
me tell you why. I'll explain how I came to
that conclusion. Dallas is a middling football team. Is that
an accurate statement? I'm nodding my head, yes, I think
you're nodding your head. Yes, dud Dallas is not expected
to be a playoff team, and yet it took their
(31:36):
one hundred million dollars wide out ceedee Lamb to have
multiple dunderhead plays where he could have made a play
and should have made a play for one hundred million
dollar receiver, and he blew it. That is not what
a Super Bowl contender looks like. Barely beating a team
(31:58):
like the Cowboys right in the arcade the Birds, If
you go into the arcade, the Birds played like a
bunch of undisciplined, angry birds. Jalen Carter getting tossed for
spitting is the Dictionary definition of self. Sabatine well, duck
dude a first, okay, Nolan Smith taunting penalty that happened later,
the roughing the passer call, same story.
Speaker 3 (32:19):
Emotion, the raw emotion, boiling over without control. Playing with
fire is good. We all like that.
Speaker 1 (32:25):
It's more fun when our athletes play with fire. Playing
like a wildfire, generally speaking is bad.
Speaker 2 (32:31):
But what do I know.
Speaker 3 (32:32):
I just do the Overnight show.
Speaker 1 (32:34):
It's like the Eagles went out there and said, how
many dumb ways can we try to hand this game
back to Dallas? And they almost did it. They almost
did it. And Nick Sirianni, that dope. Sirianni's standing over
there chewing his gum like it's just another walkthrough at
Eagles practice on a Wednesday or something like that. Like, dude,
(32:54):
you're you're either coaching that crap to happen or you're
allowing it to happen. And based on the way Siriani
carries himself in some of his interactions, I'm guessing he's
coaching them to play like that, right.
Speaker 3 (33:07):
It's none that he's allowing it to happen.
Speaker 1 (33:09):
He's coaching them to play like that, undisciplined, reckless, and
they got lucky, right, And that's generally not a great
recipe for long term success against a average to below
average Dallas Cowboy football team with Shatzi as the coach,
Brian Schottenheimer. Now, final point, let's get to the weather
report in the corner.
Speaker 9 (33:30):
Of the room.
Speaker 1 (33:31):
What did you make of the sixty five minute lightning
delay during the Eagle Cowboy.
Speaker 3 (33:38):
Game that caused the game to end up after after
midnight in Philly. So I'm of the mindset here. I'll
get into this.
Speaker 1 (33:49):
I realize this is not new, it's been happening for
a number of years now, but it's still I'm of
the age where it still annoys me. I wrote down
burpies on this one. I wrote down burpies as in
the skyburn It's okay, the sky burped. There was lightning
within six miles, and suddenly it becomes a hostage situation
on the concourse at the stadium there in Philadelphia.
Speaker 3 (34:11):
Your fans are running and trying to duck for cover.
Speaker 1 (34:14):
And we know why this happens. We've been through this before.
It's all because of the lawyers. It's always because of
the lawyers, right, the NFL. They they've got more liability
clauses the NFL than there are plays in that West
Coast offense.
Speaker 3 (34:27):
You think Roger Goodell's really worried about players safety, No.
Speaker 1 (34:31):
Right, he's not worried about that. What Goodell, and more importantly,
what the lawyers are worried about. They're worried about Tommy
the tank, the four hundred and fifty pound person sitting
in section three twelve getting zapped, getting charbroiled by lightning,
and then his family because he'll be dead, his family
suing the NFL for eighty million dollars in a share
(34:53):
of the television revenue.
Speaker 3 (34:55):
That's what they're worried about. They're not worried about the
person getting hit by lightning. They're worried about the lawsuit.
Speaker 1 (35:00):
So the shield, which when it was a mom and
pop thing, you know what times change and all that.
No one wants to get hit by lightning. We don't
want anyone to get by lightning. But it is quite
the juxtaposition that is taking place in my lifetime. Like
when it was a mom and pop business, it was
like gritty. It was I gotta get the game in,
Gotta get the game in. And it was neither snow
nor rain nor gloom of night. It was the postal creed,
(35:24):
either snow nor rain nor gloom of night. And the
NFL seemed to adopt that for a long time. At
lambeau Field in December, Soldier Field in a blizzard. Gotta
play the game. Gotta play the game. You know, Buffalo
Lake effect storm, Gotta play the game. Gotta play the game.
Speaker 3 (35:41):
Guys playing with Frostbite concussions, Gotta play the game. Gotta
play the game.
Speaker 1 (35:45):
Now. Now it's let's go grab some snacks and we'll
wait and we'll see what the doppler thing looks like,
and then we'll be in good shape.
Speaker 3 (35:53):
We'll check the doppler.
Speaker 2 (35:54):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Meller
Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific. We go,
Here we go.
Speaker 3 (36:02):
How about that? To the third degree?
Speaker 2 (36:05):
This is one big ben gets grilled.
Speaker 11 (36:09):
Here we go cool. Joe Burrow spoke with the media
on Wednesday, and he said that he believes that the
narrative surrounding the Bengals has shifted, implying that they're no
longer seen as contenders.
Speaker 5 (36:20):
Is he right?
Speaker 3 (36:22):
So he thinks now the Bengals are back to being
also rams? Is that what he's saying is that?
Speaker 11 (36:26):
How I that they're under I mean, I think he's
trying to say that they're underdogs, that they're nobody believes.
Speaker 1 (36:32):
The Bengals are actually a popular pick that bounce back.
Joe Burrow was the betting favorite to be the Most
Valuable Player. So he's blowing smoke if that's his position,
he's full of crap because there's a lot of people
like the Bengals are going to be better this year.
They almost made the playoffs. Last year they got off
to a terrible start. They're gonna better, So I disagree
with that.
Speaker 3 (36:48):
Next.
Speaker 11 (36:49):
Lamar Jackson was asked this week about Josh Allen winning
MVP over him last season. He said, quote the voters
chose who they wanted to pick. Yes, not really sure
what that's usually what happens, Ben, Do you think it
was a case of voter fatigue last season?
Speaker 3 (37:05):
So here's the thing.
Speaker 1 (37:06):
If you go by the Nerd stats, if you just
look at the raw Nerd numbers as well, Lamar Jackson
had better numbers. Lamar Jackson's your MVP. I had no
problem with Josh Allen winning. I thought Josh Allen was
the MVP because it's more than just the stats. It's
more that goes into it than that.
Speaker 3 (37:23):
It is a factor. We see it in all the sports.
Speaker 1 (37:25):
When you win a lot of awards, people get tired
of you winning. It's just human nature, that's how it works,
and they got to knock you down a little bit.
So voter fatigue is definitely an element in the stew.
Speaker 11 (37:37):
Next, Tyreek Hill spoke out about not being named a
captain by the Dolphins and said, I don't need a
title to be able to lead, Ben, how long do
you expect Tyreek.
Speaker 5 (37:48):
To be on his best behavior?
Speaker 3 (37:50):
Well, are there any women in the room. I don't know. Listen, listen,
Tyree Scott. You got some problems, you know, let's call
like it is here, and that's a good quote. That's
a good quote. I don't know why the Dolphins didn't
trade him.
Speaker 1 (38:02):
He will be on his best behavior till the end
of the game on Sunday against the Colts, when something
goes wrong and Tyreek doesn't get targeted.
Speaker 3 (38:09):

Speaker 11 (45:30):
Yes, I agree, and I mean it's so it's it
takes I mean, it's not really like a sequel, but
it takes place in the same the same universe. Uh,

Oscar Martinez from the office from dunder Mifflin. He is
(45:54):
in this new show working at this dying Ohio newspaper
in till lead up.

to Lowest and it is a new Spike Lee joint
(46:44):
and Spike Lee reunites with Denzel Washington for the first
time in nearly two decades.
Speaker 3 (46:49):
And it is If I told you my Spike Lee story, Coop,
I was in an elevator the Colisseum in LA with
Spike Lee. It was me and him, Rick Fox and
the elevator operator. And when those doors are the elevator closed,
Spike Lee looked, he thought I was gonna kill him.
He looked at me. I was I was much bigger.
Speaker 5 (47:04):
I was just gonna say, is it because you're like
four times in size exactly?
Speaker 1 (47:08):
He gave me this look like, please don't kill me.
I said, Spike, I'm not going to kill you.
Speaker 3 (47:12):
It's okay.
Speaker 11 (47:14):
You know that's actually that's hilarious that you brought up
that story, because do you know who is in this movie?
Speaker 5 (47:21):
Highest to lois No, Rick Fox?
Speaker 3 (47:25):
Are you kidding?
Speaker 5 (47:25):
I swear to god, that's funny.
Speaker 3 (47:28):
Yeah, they were hanging out back when Pete Carroll was
coaching a twenty years ago. They were they were buddy buddy.
They would go to the games together. Rick was I
think he was still playing in the NBA at the
time too.
Speaker 11 (47:36):
Yeah, that's that's funny. Apparently they're they're buddies. But yeah,
Denzel Washington leads the cast. Jeffrey Wright asap Rocky is
in it, and Ice spiceand yes, Ice Spice.
Speaker 5 (47:50):
Is also in it, and Rick Fox.
Speaker 11 (47:53):
So yeah, it is a crime thriller and Denzel plays
a wealthy music mogul who is targeted by a kidnapping
for ransom plot.
Speaker 3 (48:03):
Hmm, wonder how that's gonna end.
Speaker 5 (48:05):
Yes, and since I'm running a long time, I am
going to skip ahead to.
Speaker 3 (48:10):
This in the broad We now move ahead in the broadcast. Yes.
Speaker 11 (48:14):
On Wednesday on Netflix, we have a documentary called a
k A. Charlie Sheen and it is oh okay, Yes,
Charlie Sheen documentary in his own words.
Speaker 3 (48:28):
And he lives up in up the hill here in
Sherman Oaks, right, I believe he did. I don't know
if he moved.

So he documents his riase to superstardom and then his uh,
his fall scandals.
Speaker 5 (48:41):
Yes, I used to.
Speaker 3 (48:42):
See when Charlie had that breakdown. I don't know which
which time. It was about ten years ago maybe yeah.
Speaker 5 (48:48):
Maybe more than that, the Tiger Blood.
Speaker 1 (48:50):
And yeah, like he would drive around, he would drive
around our studios. He had these really expensive sports cars.
He'd drive around overnight, like really fast.
Speaker 3 (48:59):
Around this studio, zooming around us.

Yeah.
Speaker 3 (49:02):
Yeah, and then and he's driving around and like, dude,

(02:06):
They think they programmed the show. So a number of
these nut jobs get very upset. So out of a courtesy,
I will send out if you follow the show on
x it's kind of an interactive situation.
Speaker 3 (02:17):
We do this in real time.
Speaker 1 (02:18):
If your podcast listener just fast forward through this part
even though we're doing this live. So normally what happens
is I will send out right before the show begins.
Speaker 3 (02:26):

what we have on the dessert menu today, and I
will send that out as a way for you to
have somebody to look forward to dear like God, it's good,
like you actually look forward to this crap. And then
sometimes I'm so busy I don't have time to do that.
You know, I have staff of thousands that work on
the show, being the overnight guy, so I did not
(02:49):
have a chance to send that out, but I will
do that later.
Speaker 3 (02:51):
I'm efforting. That is that we're supposed to say. Efforting.
I think you're supposed say everything. Yes, yes, according to
my friend Larta, we're efforting to get that out.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
So we will have that out within the hour. If
you're listening in real time and listening live.
Speaker 3 (03:05):
But our lead this hour is from Phildelphia.
Speaker 1 (03:09):
The curtain and the championship banner went up to the rafters.
There was raised the twenty twenty five NFL season. Were
you watching, well, probably probably, I mean just had to
get a really good rating, really good rating. Cowboys were involved,
and so you had Jalen Hurts. We told you yesterday
(03:32):
and one of the many Draft Kings commercials that Jalen
Hurts scoring a touchdown seemed like a good idea to us.
He did not only one, but two touchdowns. So Jalen
Hurts rushing for two scores The Eagles with stood a
rare although not quite as rare as it should be,
weather delay, and they needed a late stop to beat
(03:53):
the Cowboys twenty four to twenty, game ending early in
the overnight hours in philadel For you, there is the
sixty five minute delay. A wild start to the NFL season.
Looked like the game would be in the forties in
the first half. The Eagles led twenty four to twenty
with four forty four to go in the third court.
(04:15):
So fours across the board, fours across the board.
Speaker 3 (04:19):
And then the yeah.
Speaker 1 (04:22):
And then the game was delayed I mentioned for sixty
five minutes because.
Speaker 3 (04:26):
Of lightning in the area. We'll get to that some
point later on in the show around Lincoln Financial Field.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
So the game ended up just after midnight. I love
these people that are used to working during the day.
They get so freaked out.
Speaker 3 (04:37):
Oh my god, Mike Tarico, I thought it was got
have a heart attack. On NBC. He was, Oh my god,
the game in after mid no Oh my god.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
Hey Mike, there's people up overnight, you dope, they work
the overnight shift.
Speaker 3 (04:47):
You're moron.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
You might want to acknowledge the people that drive trucks
and work in factories and make donuts. So when your
fat ass goes to the donut shop, you can eat
a donut in the morning. They're making them overnight. Okay,
So I oh, I can't believe what we ended it
after midnight?
Speaker 3 (05:01):
Holy crap. Anyway, the Cowboys had a chance. They had
multiple chances.
Speaker 1 (05:06):
Now Dak Press got through an incomplete pass on a
fourth down and three. That was the final blow with
one fifty four to go, the last gasp. The better story, though,
is in the losing locker room. The better story is
in the losing locker room.
Speaker 3 (05:19):
We had the.
Speaker 1 (05:20):
Debut of Shatzi or Shady Brian Schottenheimer. He took over
as the coach. He's the latest sock puppet for Jerry Jones.
And there's this story within the story here. If you
saw the game, I believe you know where we're going
with this. So many pointing the finger at CD Lamb
(05:43):
and that's the Dallas pass catcher. In fact, even Ceedee
Lamb was pointing the fingers that who was pounding his
chest like at the end of the game, kind of hey,
blame me, it was my fault.
Speaker 3 (05:51):
Bad job by me.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
He melted down in the fourth quarter of this game
with multiple drop passes and voting a backbreaker for the Cowboys.
Speaker 3 (06:02):
So let us discuss is.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
It inbounds or is it out of bounds to blame
Cedee Lamb for the Cowboys loss. So is it inbounds
to blame Ceedee Lamb for the Cowboys loss or out
of bounds? So my thoughts on this, I've got Marvel Comics, iPhones,
and Hermit Crab and we will combine all of these
things together and we are going to make Cotton Candy,
(06:26):
which is about as tough as the Cowboys defense was
early in that game. Now a better second half for
Dallas defensively, But it's not about that. This is about
the story within the story. Cee d Lamb hole Lee crap.
Speaker 3 (06:41):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
Now, he did have seven catches for one hundred and
ten yards. That's a good stat line if you play
fantasy football. But in terms of the making a play
when it mattered, he did not. Here is the head
coach of the Dallas Cowboys, Brian Schottenheimer. Brian Schottenheimer commenting
on the night of Ceedee Lamb take, I don't.
Speaker 4 (07:02):
Worry about Sea Lamb.
Speaker 5 (07:03):
Cee.
Speaker 4 (07:03):
He's gonna be fine. What a great player.
Speaker 5 (07:06):
Again, Yeah, this was a This.
Speaker 4 (07:08):
Was a team defeat, and we own that. You know,
we understand where we can go as a football team.
We understand. I love the competition. I thought guys competed
their butts off. I thought that was great. But we're
all about winning, and we didn't win tonight, and so
therefore it's not good enough.
Speaker 5 (07:22):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (07:22):
If I was Jerry Jones, I'd fire Shotenheimer right now.
I'd say, all right, you're not allowed to go back
to Dallas.
Speaker 3 (07:27):
You're a dope. Uh No, how about some accountability? How
about your guy, your mister one hundred million dollar man?
Fed up? Why can't we say that?
Speaker 1 (07:38):
Oh my god, what was it gonna rain down lightning
like it did in Philadelphia there when the game was delayed?
If you say that, like this is the stuff about
sports that just drives me insane.
Speaker 3 (07:49):
Like they just think.
Speaker 1 (07:51):
You're a moron. The customer is a dope. You can't
acknowledge what everyone sees. Right, you're the one hundred million
dollar oh man, you're supposed to be the difference maker.
It's like Marvel Comics. I learned this from my friend
Spider Man. With great power comes great responsibility. You're a
(08:11):
one hundred million dollar receiver. That means when the ball's
in the air and it hits your hands in the
fourth quarter, you've got to make the play. You don't
get to play well. I had seven catches for one
hundred and ten yards, card and your coach can defend
your Well, it's a team loss.
Speaker 3 (08:29):
Empty.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
Those are empty calories. They're empty stats by Ceedee Lamb
and Jerry Jones.
Speaker 3 (08:35):
Cowboys.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
They pay this guy to be a special ingredient. Not
everyone is treated the same.
Speaker 3 (08:42):
We know that. Oh, it's a meritocracy. No, it's not.
Everyone's treated a little bit differently. Right. The stars get
a little more wiggle room. This is the thing.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
You get one hundred million dollars that is supposed to
separate you from a guy on the Winnipeg Blue Bombers. Okay,
any Jibbrody can go there and dropped the ball in
crunch time.
Speaker 3 (09:03):
That's not one hundred million dollars receiver. But wait, there's more.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
How about the other receiver George Pickens, who I think
had more success picking buggers out of his nose than
he did in this game. He coming over from Pittsburgh.
Three catches for thirty yards. You know what, that makes
him a jar, just a receiver, and you can find
those guys anywhere also.
Speaker 3 (09:24):
But I want to go back to Cede Lamb.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
Ceede Limb is supposed to be more right, and I
don't want to live in a world you.
Speaker 3 (09:31):
Can't criticize the bone as the team loss. I trust him?
How would you trust him?
Speaker 1 (09:36):
How many times the sports that we've seen when players
get the yips, sometimes they never recover from that.
Speaker 3 (09:42):
That was a yips game. Yepity, yippity yip yip. It
was a yep game.
Speaker 1 (09:46):
Right, don't let that distract you, all right, that the
coaches out there, Sore has a team lot.
Speaker 3 (09:53):
This was Lamb when it mattered. He shrank, right, he shrank.
Speaker 1 (09:59):
He was the guy who was wide open hero down
four touchdown, you have the lead pressure on the Eagles,
and he tripped over his own kid. You know it's
like if you ever go to Times Score, you know
those ripoff spider Man, ripoff characters, like a rip off
spider Man that tripped over his own cape in Times
Square in a photo thing trying to you know, hustle
(10:21):
people for money, like do better be better? That's the
whole job description when you're being paid to be the superhero.
It's like when you make a movie and the movie tanks.
Do you say, well, we all were bad in the movie,
or do you say with the headliner of the movie sucked.
You don't blame the extras in the movie. Like, that's
not how any of this works. Where you it bothers
(10:44):
me when it's money time, poof, poof. This is the Cowboys.
The stars vanished and now it's not all on CD Lamb. Though,
we got to pass the buck over to Dak Prescott.
How did you grade Dak Prescott's performance for the Cowboys?
So he wasn't in the very front of the Vomit comet,
(11:07):
that was Cedee Lamb. However, he was riding shotgun in
the Vomit Comet. Dak Prescott now drops aside he was
an NGE not good enough performer. NNGE not good enough.
This was supposed to be and it is a measuring sticky.
Now we assume the position that the Cowboys are not
(11:30):
going to be a playoff team. They weren't a playoff
team last year. They have a worse team this year
than they did last year. But that's the assumption. You
can change assumptions by your performance. The Eagles and Cowboys
this is an nfcast grudge match which started with one
of the key Eagle defenders ejected for spitting a nice
juicy loogie the direction of Dak Prescott, who had spin
(11:53):
on the ground and some Eagle fans.
Speaker 3 (11:55):
We'll see Derek spit.
Speaker 1 (11:56):
We'll talk more about this later, but Dak spit on
the ground and they I think that's equal to a
loogie being spit by Jalen Carter on Dak Prescott. But
in terms of Dak's performance, I would have rather had
some phlegm in the second and a half.
Speaker 3 (12:10):
That would have done better. Right, And so what Dak?
Speaker 1 (12:14):
If you look at this as a measuring stick in
the second half, he also shriveled, shriveled up.
Speaker 3 (12:20):
Now he didn't get help from cdee Lamb.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
But at halftime, as I was observing, you could say, hey,
Dak was fine.
Speaker 3 (12:27):
I wouldn't say he was great.
Speaker 1 (12:28):
In the first half. Would you say it was great.
I wouldn't say it was great. I thought he was fine.
Speaker 3 (12:32):
Uh, he wasn't terrible.
Speaker 1 (12:34):
He passed the test. You know, the last person that
graduates medical school they call a doctor. You know, they
still call him a doctor. That Dak Prescott wasn't killing
the Cowboys, he wasn't killing the Eagles.
Speaker 3 (12:47):
But then in the second half.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
It was how low can you go? It was how
low can you go? In the second half? How bad
was it? It was cover your eyes bad. Dakota after
halftime was nine of seventeen passing. He completed a little
less than fifty five percent of his passes, averaged three
(13:10):
point five yards per pass. That's I mean cheap, my god.
That is a referendum on Dak Prescott. And this is
one of the arguments that Dak Prescott, you know, he
got paid and Jerry Jones has gotten played because he's
a fraud. Dak Prescott, he's a phony quarterback that puts
up numbers against god awful teams and then went against
better teams. He doesn't elevate people, and he doesn't rise
(13:34):
to the challenge and all that. And that's the argument.
And if you had done a blind side by side
examination and said, okay, here's quarterback A and here's quarterback B,
and their performance in the say and a half, you
would have said, was that Anthony.
Speaker 3 (13:50):
Richardson or I mean that that's Dak Press.
Speaker 1 (13:53):
That's an Anthony Richardson stat line outside of he didn't
quit and take himself out of the game like that
gutlass Anthony Richardson. Or the other thing is he said,
well he didn't turn the ball over. But you know,
Richardson the definition of bad losing your job to Daniel Jones,
but just a scattershot short arming throws, totally lost in
(14:14):
the moment, and Jerry Jones could have gone out and
gotten a guy from the XFL to do all that.
Dak Prescott in the second half, you know, he was like,
if you didn't didn't hear the game or see the game,
Dak was like one of those iPhones, you know, one
of those older iPhones where the battery says forty percent
and then you open up your Instagram app and then
it dies within a second.
Speaker 3 (14:32):
As soon as you open it up. You're like, well,
so he said forty percent, but it died. Why did
it die? It said forty percent supposed to last.
Speaker 1 (14:37):
Well, well, no, it died right away because the battery
is defective, and you're like, what the hell happened here?
Just shut down, Dak. He turned into a pumpkin after halftime,
and he did get some help. Ceedee Lamb did help
him by dropping a pass. But even if that catch
had been made by Cede Lamb, it still was not
a wonderful second half performance by Dak Prescott. Now, last word,
(15:01):
So we had celebrities in the house. NBC, if you
were watching the broadcast, made sure to shove this.
Speaker 3 (15:07):
Down our throats.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
Were you surprised that Michael Jordan, the greatest basketball player ever,
Michael Jordan.
Speaker 3 (15:15):
Was at the Eagles game?
Speaker 5 (15:17):
All right?
Speaker 1 (15:17):
So I was I was surprised. I'm not gonna say
here say I wasn't surprised mj showing up at an
NFL opener. It's kind of like going in your backyard
and seeing a unicorn. You don't expect to see a
unicorn in your backyard. You don't think you'd see a
unicorn because unicorns aren't real, But there's a unicorn in
your backyard. Like this is the living legend, the basketball
(15:39):
equivalent of a five star general, Michael Jordan, And he
doesn't just pop out for any Tom Dick and Harry
sporting Man. And mainly the main reason I'm surprised is
because he's a recluse in terms of the sports world.
He doesn't need to ever leave his mansion, his casa.
Speaker 3 (15:58):
He doesn't need to.
Speaker 1 (15:59):
Like Jordan's about his public as a hermit crab in
a titanium shell. Right, He's richer than rich, He's oligark rich.
And yet here we are. This is MJ's second football
game this week. As he sat through I think he
left at halftime, the Bill Belichick debacle for his Tar
Hills getting squashed flatter than a soda can under a steamroller.
(16:20):
That's two games in one week. You know, the odds
on that, the odds on that. That's like the Pope
making it back to back knights at a dive bar
down the street from the Vatican, Right, you wouldn't expect
to see that either. So Jordan was at the game
as a guest we are told of Jalen Hurts. So
then it makes a little more sense because this wasn't
(16:40):
just MJ saying I got to watch.
Speaker 3 (16:41):
A football game, you know.
Speaker 1 (16:42):
Wasn't that you wouldn't feel nostalgic for some pig skin.
Wasn't that at all? He was there as a Jalen
Hurts vip. It's all part of that Jordan brand.
Speaker 3 (16:52):
Mafia.
Speaker 1 (16:53):
Hurts is a disciple, a disciple of Michael Jordan. And
then with Jalen Hurts hitting the Jordan shrug after one
of the touchdowns that he scored, that was pure Hollywood.
It's almost like that was scripted and made for TV.
You had the NBC cameras drooling like a dog over
at t Bone. They're all excited, all horny because they
get show Jordan. He got a no show job, like
(17:14):
Kawhi has, Jordan will be spewing cliches on NBC when
the basketball season starts here before long man, it's already September,
so the season starts around Halloween, so it'll be here
before you know it. But it was a nod to
the goat by Jalen Hurts there, and that was the moment.

Speaker 3 (18:44):
Of another hour of the Ben Mahlor Show.
Speaker 1 (18:47):
We are in the air everywhere as we stay in touch,
and we think we could be the bomb Digg Diggity
Bomb Coach, Border the Motor and beyond on the mass
and magnificently powerful microphones of FSR am monating live from
(19:10):
the bodega. It's Benny's Bodega for your over the radio
remedies and try that.
Speaker 3 (19:17):

ship fast and free back by free road hazard protection
with convenient installation options like mobile tire installation. I know
Natron in Nokale likes that tire i Raq the Way
tire buying show.
Speaker 5 (20:04):
Me.
Speaker 1 (20:06):
So I was talking in one of our production meetings.
We have a lot of production meetings. We have a
table read during the day. We don't just show up
here and roll in and do the show. There's a
lot that goes into it. A lot that goes into it,
and I'm so lucky to have a job.
Speaker 3 (20:20):
I'm I'm.
Speaker 1 (20:22):
I guess I'm middle aged, maybe a little older than that.
Now I'm getting older and I have a job where
I talk about people spitting and I get paid for it.
I mean, what a great world we live in. So
I leave this hour is from Philadelphia. The Eagles held
off the Cowboys and they edged the Dallas there Delaware
Valley game that ended after midnight in Philly because of
(20:44):
long delay.
Speaker 3 (20:45):
We'll talk more about that in a minute because of
the lightning.
Speaker 1 (20:48):
But the story within the story happened before the first
snap from scrimmage. So if you saw this or we're
listening to it on the radio, if you're blind, you
didn't see it, but you heard about on the radio.
Perhaps you though if you were not paying attention. So
Eagles defensive tackle Jalen Carter. Didn't this guy have a
reputation in college of being a hothead. Well, he's been
(21:08):
a boy scout for the most part in the NFL,
but not on this night. Jalen Carter, the Eagles defensive tackle,
he did not play a down, not a down before
he was ejected get out of here, Go take a shower.
Speaker 3 (21:21):
You're done, go right now.
Speaker 1 (21:25):
This happened during an injury time out injury timeout after
the kickoff, one of the Eagles special teams players was
all mangled and messed up. I mean, what a way
to start the year. And the Cowboys offense was on
the field. They were huddled up. When Jalen Carter went
over there, there was an interaction with Dakota Prescott. Carter
ended up being caught on candid camera spatting a loogie,
(21:49):
a big juicy lougie right at Cowboy quarterback dak Prescott,
before turning and leaving the scene of the crime. Now,
Prescott motioned to the official who was stick right there
and flagged and immediately throughout Jalen Carter. You must protect
quarterbacks from lugi's at all costs. Well, later on there
(22:10):
was a bruder film like coverage, frame by frame breakdowns,
and it turns out there was a second spinner. There
was a second spinner, and that spitter was Dakota Prescott.
Speaker 3 (22:22):
MG. So dak Scott, we came to learn after the fact.
Speaker 1 (22:26):
He had spit some phlegm, not a full lougie, more
phlem right there. On the ground in front of Jalen Carter.
Now that led to some Sicka Fhan to derange the
members of the Philadelphia fandom who may or may not
be related to Fats in Philadelphia who lit himself on
fire for our show during the pandemic.
Speaker 3 (22:48):
They said, well, the refs overreacted.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
This was a spit versus spit, eye for an eye,
spit for a spit, Lugi for alugi. This guy should
not have been should not have been ejected. It's a
bad job by the referees. So that's a good jumping
off point. Let us discuss now the question did did the.
Speaker 3 (23:09):
Eagles defensive tackle Jaalen Carter.
Speaker 1 (23:12):
Deserve to be kicked out of the NFL opener for
spitting on the Cowboys quarterback?
Speaker 3 (23:19):
So I have my observations. I've got weird science.
Speaker 1 (23:23):
Arcade and burpies, okay, and we'll combine all of these
things together and we are gonna make your Babushka's favorite
sugar cookies is what we're going to make. Absolutely, So
before we get fully into this, let's get some flavor.
We have some audio postgame audio from the scene of
the crime there in Philadelphia on a rainy night in
(23:45):
the City of Brotherly Love. Let's start out with Nick Sirianni.
Everyone's got a take.
Speaker 3 (23:49):
On this logie.
Speaker 1 (23:51):
So here is Eagles coach Nick Sirianni. I'm sure he's
gonna rip Jalen Carter, but here's the Eagles coach, his
take on what happened.
Speaker 3 (23:57):
Take a listen.
Speaker 8 (23:58):
Yeah, I'm gonna keep all our conversation and all my
disciplinary things in house.
Speaker 3 (24:03):
Oh we got to do to fix it as coaches?
Speaker 5 (24:05):
Is it something where you might take disciplinary.
Speaker 8 (24:08):
Action against jail again. I will keep everything in house
and we will we will. Uh, you won't ever get
that from me. We'll all, we will. Everything will always
be handled in house, just like private conversations that I
have with players. None of that, none of that will
ever be out to you guys. I'm sorry.
Speaker 3 (24:25):
Of course it's unless it's on NFL films and then
it'll be broadcast. But we can't do that anymore.
Speaker 1 (24:30):
They've ruined, they've ruined hard knocks and things like that
because the players are so soft and the coach is
apparently soft too. That's not like a soft coach to me.
A real doesn't a real leader, doesn't a real leader
come out and say this is embarrassing. I'm gonna you know,
this guy's I'm gonna punish his ass, not Nick Sirianni,
what a coward. All right, here's Dak Prescott. We learned
he was the first spitterer. Here's the code of Prescott's
(24:52):
take on Spitgate. Take a listen.
Speaker 9 (24:54):
I'll probably spent a thousand times throughout the game. I
mean especially game that maybe even in general and something
I guess I'm not proud of. But in that case,
he was trolling. I guess you could say, trying to
mess with Tyler Booker. I was just looking at him.
I was right here about the two linemen, and I
guess I needed to spit and I wouldn't gonna spend
on my liman, and I just spit ahead. But I
would say he was back there where Joelry was in
(25:15):
that sense, and he asked, or he goes, you're trying.
Speaker 3 (25:18):
To spin on me.
Speaker 9 (25:19):
And at that point, I mean, I felt like like
like he was insulting me, like I don't I wouldn't
spend on somebody. I'm damn su You're not trying to
spin on you, like we're about to play a game.
Speaker 1 (25:28):
So that was his way of saying, I'm a better
person than that other guy because I don't spit on people.
Speaker 3 (25:32):
That guy spin on me. Let's do the math on that.
How about this?
Speaker 1 (25:36):
Dak Prescott says he spits a thousand times a day,
So three hundred and sixty five days a year. That
means Dak Prescott spits three hundred and sixty five thousand
dollars three and sixty five thousand times.
Speaker 3 (25:47):
Not dollars he gets paid that probably.
Speaker 1 (25:49):
Per day, but three hundred and sixty five thousand loogies
per day per year, that's a lot.
Speaker 3 (25:54):
That's a lot. All right. Let's hear from the man
of the hour though, a player that.
Speaker 1 (25:58):
Was ejected before the first play from scrimmage, Jalen Carter,
what do you have to say for yourself?
Speaker 10 (26:05):
I heard the rough talking and then I heard him
say this is a tosson ball offense or something like that,
and that's when I know, did you have a conversation
with Nick and ex with the what kind of message
did he y? I know I didn't have a conversation yet,
I know we're going to have that conversation. They had
to focus on the game. Still, I don't want to
be strapping from the game. You know, are you worried
about the new people?
Speaker 3 (26:26):
Uh?
Speaker 10 (26:26):
I get you know that text what I call and
a lot of conversation that Will had as now you know,
I walked off to feel calmly.
Speaker 3 (26:33):
I was not mad. That's pretty much.
Speaker 10 (26:35):
I couldn't really do nothing else, you know.
Speaker 3 (26:36):
The REP decision is the rough decision on the situation.
Speaker 10 (26:39):
When things started to come out and you started seeing
things that if you can go off that, but I
don't got nothing to say about it, you know.
Speaker 3 (26:45):
All right, I got a lot a lot of ambient
noise there in the locker room from Jalen Carter.
Speaker 1 (26:50):
So again the question that we jumped off on was
eagle defensive tackle jailing Carter? Did he deserve to be
kicked out considering that he retaliate after Dak Prescott spit first.
So absolutely, one thousand percent, Jalen Carter deserved to be
kicked out. You cannot do that in twenty twenty five.
(27:10):
It is not nineteen seventy five. Back when I was younger,
I used to watch these NFL films documentaries back when
they were good. Was a mom and pop operation, and
there were guys gouging player's eyes, twisting face mask, leg
whipping was going on, tripping, spitting hell. Some of them
were practically biting each other's fingers off. Back then, it
(27:31):
was thunderdome. Today, it's weird science. Today, it's where it suns.
Everything is under the PC microscope of your corporate overlords
at the NFL. There are cameras in every crevice of
the field and your body. Dak Prescott did spit, but
he spat on the ground. Spoiler alert. That is allowed.
(27:53):
It is allowed. Dirt is fair game. Now someday there'll
be a lawyer that represents dirt and will sue and say, well,
dirt has feelings. You can't spin on dirt. And then
some other dumb people will support the lawyer who supports
the dirt, and then there'll be a fund of money
to pay for the dirt.
Speaker 3 (28:13):
But we're not at that point yet. Give us a
few years.
Speaker 1 (28:15):
So Dak Prescott spit first, but he who spits second
gets caught. Plus, you can't be out there hawking loogies
on people like you're a caveman.
Speaker 3 (28:29):
Right.
Speaker 1 (28:29):
It's disgusting, it's inconsiderate, it's rude. You're not the hawk
to a girl. Stop it, knock it off. What's wrong
with you?
Speaker 5 (28:37):
You're gonna get in that hawk? Dude spin on that day.
Speaker 1 (28:41):
Yeah, nobody wants to see that on the field. Now,
maybe in some other environments they want to see that,
but not on the field. Okay, nobody wants to hear
that sound on the field either. That man makes your
skin crawl. And I don't know what they're teaching today,
but when I was in kindergarten, kindergarten, I was taught.
I was taught, now, keep your bodily fluids to yourself.
This is the NFL opener. It's not some middle school
(29:03):
locker room, Pop Warner All Star team or anything like that.
Speaker 3 (29:06):
It's Neanderthal stuff.
Speaker 1 (29:08):
You got seventy thousand whatever fans there in Philadelphia, millions
of people pretending to pay attention, watching on television, and
Jalen Carter decides it's time to unload his sinuses onto
another human being.
Speaker 3 (29:20):
Now.
Speaker 1 (29:20):
Now, there was cartoon I sed to like called the Flintstones.
You're not Fred Flintstone there spitting off the side of
a dinosaur crane.
Speaker 3 (29:27):
You're not doing that. It's the NFL.
Speaker 1 (29:29):
Everyone's watching in high def everyone's watching. And again the
whole neanderthal thing, stop acting like Captain Caveman. It's gross,
it's stupid, and chose a complete lack of understanding of
what you can and cannot do. And also like the
whole opponent thing and sportsmanship and all that. Now, listen,
(29:50):
if you want to be a tough guy, go out.
Speaker 3 (29:52):
There and just dominate the line of scrimmage.
Speaker 1 (29:55):
But hawking a loogie does not necessarily work. And who
in their right mind thinks they're gonna be able to
get away with that? Right?
Speaker 3 (30:02):
And then who thinks that's a power move power move
power move to do that. It's not very intimidating, it's not.
It's it's kind of like, you know, back when I
was playing in the in the sandbox, you know, you're
you're throwing sand in the sandbox when you don't get
your way.
Speaker 1 (30:17):
Well, that's not good either. You're not supposed to do that.
You're not supposed to throw sand in the sandbox. You
shouldn't accept this sandbox. The NFL sandbox is different. The
sandbox does not have fifteen thousand cameras, replay officials, one
hundred million dollar broadcast deals attached to it. So Jalen Carter,
keep your flem to yourself all right now, page two. So,
(30:39):
how how should coach Nick Sirianni? Mister, I'm gonna keep
it in the house. I'm not gonna say anything. How
should coach Nick Sirianni be feeling about the Eagles after
they won this game? Cowboys won the statu sheet, Eagles
won the game. So on my scorecard, I wrote down
concerned capital c concern capital.
Speaker 3 (31:01):
See if I'm the Eagles here, you can be in denials.
Oh we're the champs. Man be a total meathead fan
and not live in the real world. But I live
in the real world, and as an objective voice of
reason overnight, there are problems in Philadelphia.
Speaker 1 (31:16):
There are problems with that Philadelphia Eagle team. And let
me tell you why. I'll explain how I came to
that conclusion. Dallas is a middling football team. Is that
an accurate statement? I'm nodding my head, yes, I think
you're nodding your head. Yes, dud Dallas is not expected
to be a playoff team, and yet it took their
(31:36):
one hundred million dollars wide out ceedee Lamb to have
multiple dunderhead plays where he could have made a play
and should have made a play for one hundred million
dollar receiver, and he blew it. That is not what
a Super Bowl contender looks like. Barely beating a team
(31:58):
like the Cowboys right in the arcade the Birds, If
you go into the arcade, the Birds played like a
bunch of undisciplined, angry birds. Jalen Carter getting tossed for
spitting is the Dictionary definition of self. Sabatine well, duck
dude a first, okay, Nolan Smith taunting penalty that happened later,
the roughing the passer call, same story.
Speaker 3 (32:19):
Emotion, the raw emotion, boiling over without control. Playing with
fire is good. We all like that.
Speaker 1 (32:25):
It's more fun when our athletes play with fire. Playing
like a wildfire, generally speaking is bad.
Speaker 2 (32:31):
But what do I know.
Speaker 3 (32:32):
I just do the Overnight show.
Speaker 1 (32:34):
It's like the Eagles went out there and said, how
many dumb ways can we try to hand this game
back to Dallas? And they almost did it. They almost
did it. And Nick Sirianni, that dope. Sirianni's standing over
there chewing his gum like it's just another walkthrough at
Eagles practice on a Wednesday or something like that. Like, dude,
(32:54):
you're you're either coaching that crap to happen or you're
allowing it to happen. And based on the way Siriani
carries himself in some of his interactions, I'm guessing he's
coaching them to play like that, right.
Speaker 3 (33:07):
It's none that he's allowing it to happen.
Speaker 1 (33:09):
He's coaching them to play like that, undisciplined, reckless, and
they got lucky, right, And that's generally not a great
recipe for long term success against a average to below
average Dallas Cowboy football team with Shatzi as the coach,
Brian Schottenheimer. Now, final point, let's get to the weather
report in the corner.
Speaker 9 (33:30):
Of the room.
Speaker 1 (33:31):
What did you make of the sixty five minute lightning
delay during the Eagle Cowboy.
Speaker 3 (33:38):
Game that caused the game to end up after after
midnight in Philly. So I'm of the mindset here. I'll
get into this.
Speaker 1 (33:49):
I realize this is not new, it's been happening for
a number of years now, but it's still I'm of
the age where it still annoys me. I wrote down
burpies on this one. I wrote down burpies as in
the skyburn It's okay, the sky burped. There was lightning
within six miles, and suddenly it becomes a hostage situation
on the concourse at the stadium there in Philadelphia.
Speaker 3 (34:11):
Your fans are running and trying to duck for cover.
Speaker 1 (34:14):
And we know why this happens. We've been through this before.
It's all because of the lawyers. It's always because of
the lawyers, right, the NFL. They they've got more liability
clauses the NFL than there are plays in that West
Coast offense.
Speaker 3 (34:27):
You think Roger Goodell's really worried about players safety, No.
Speaker 1 (34:31):
Right, he's not worried about that. What Goodell, and more importantly,
what the lawyers are worried about. They're worried about Tommy
the tank, the four hundred and fifty pound person sitting
in section three twelve getting zapped, getting charbroiled by lightning,
and then his family because he'll be dead, his family
suing the NFL for eighty million dollars in a share
(34:53):
of the television revenue.
Speaker 3 (34:55):
That's what they're worried about. They're not worried about the
person getting hit by lightning. They're worried about the lawsuit.
Speaker 1 (35:00):
So the shield, which when it was a mom and
pop thing, you know what times change and all that.
No one wants to get hit by lightning. We don't
want anyone to get by lightning. But it is quite
the juxtaposition that is taking place in my lifetime. Like
when it was a mom and pop business, it was
like gritty. It was I gotta get the game in,
Gotta get the game in. And it was neither snow
nor rain nor gloom of night. It was the postal creed,
(35:24):
either snow nor rain nor gloom of night. And the
NFL seemed to adopt that for a long time. At
lambeau Field in December, Soldier Field in a blizzard. Gotta
play the game. Gotta play the game. You know, Buffalo
Lake effect storm, Gotta play the game. Gotta play the game.
Speaker 3 (35:41):
Guys playing with Frostbite concussions, Gotta play the game. Gotta
play the game.
Speaker 1 (35:45):
Now. Now it's let's go grab some snacks and we'll
wait and we'll see what the doppler thing looks like,
and then we'll be in good shape.
Speaker 3 (35:53):
We'll check the doppler.
Speaker 2 (35:54):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Meller
Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific. We go,
Here we go.
Speaker 3 (36:02):
How about that? To the third degree?
Speaker 2 (36:05):
This is one big ben gets grilled.
Speaker 11 (36:09):
Here we go cool. Joe Burrow spoke with the media
on Wednesday, and he said that he believes that the
narrative surrounding the Bengals has shifted, implying that they're no
longer seen as contenders.
Speaker 5 (36:20):
Is he right?
Speaker 3 (36:22):
So he thinks now the Bengals are back to being
also rams? Is that what he's saying is that?
Speaker 11 (36:26):
How I that they're under I mean, I think he's
trying to say that they're underdogs, that they're nobody believes.
Speaker 1 (36:32):
The Bengals are actually a popular pick that bounce back.
Joe Burrow was the betting favorite to be the Most
Valuable Player. So he's blowing smoke if that's his position,
he's full of crap because there's a lot of people
like the Bengals are going to be better this year.
They almost made the playoffs. Last year they got off
to a terrible start. They're gonna better, So I disagree
with that.
Speaker 3 (36:48):
Next.
Speaker 11 (36:49):
Lamar Jackson was asked this week about Josh Allen winning
MVP over him last season. He said, quote the voters
chose who they wanted to pick. Yes, not really sure
what that's usually what happens, Ben, Do you think it
was a case of voter fatigue last season?
Speaker 3 (37:05):
So here's the thing.
Speaker 1 (37:06):
If you go by the Nerd stats, if you just
look at the raw Nerd numbers as well, Lamar Jackson
had better numbers. Lamar Jackson's your MVP. I had no
problem with Josh Allen winning. I thought Josh Allen was
the MVP because it's more than just the stats. It's
more that goes into it than that.
Speaker 3 (37:23):
It is a factor. We see it in all the sports.
Speaker 1 (37:25):
When you win a lot of awards, people get tired
of you winning. It's just human nature, that's how it works,
and they got to knock you down a little bit.
So voter fatigue is definitely an element in the stew.
Speaker 11 (37:37):
Next, Tyreek Hill spoke out about not being named a
captain by the Dolphins and said, I don't need a
title to be able to lead, Ben, how long do
you expect Tyreek.
Speaker 5 (37:48):
To be on his best behavior?
Speaker 3 (37:50):
Well, are there any women in the room. I don't know. Listen, listen,
Tyree Scott. You got some problems, you know, let's call
like it is here, and that's a good quote. That's
a good quote. I don't know why the Dolphins didn't
trade him.
Speaker 1 (38:02):
He will be on his best behavior till the end
of the game on Sunday against the Colts, when something
goes wrong and Tyreek doesn't get targeted.
Speaker 3 (38:09):
