Show podcast on this Tuesday, the second day of September.
What are your takeaways from Bill Belichick's college football debut
at North Carolina as it was blow out city TCU
(00:27):
getting her done in a large domination situation. Also, how
would you describe the job that Belichick and his staff
did in his North Carolina coaching debut And what did
you make of Belichick's tone in his postgame comments after
a historically horrific debacle in Chapel Hill or Chapel Bill,
(00:49):
We'll get to all of that and a whole lot
more right now here. It is our number one.
Speaker 1 (00:58):
All dressed up and ready to There was no party.
Speaker 3 (01:02):
Welcome in the beginning of another night of the Ben
Mahler Show. We are in the air every wares we
chatter away coast to coast, border the border in beyond.
On the mast and lavishly powerful microphones of fast stars.
(01:24):
We get jiggy with it, emanating lives from the thermometer
as you and I we take the temperature in the
room from the world famous Fox Sports Radio Studios, as
approved by Spacoli, who lives in Chapel Hill and works
with the Dreaded day Shift, now a former.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
Nocturnal listener but now working in the Dreaded day Shift.
And this portion of the Ben Malers show made possible
in part by our friends at tire Rack. That's right, Alpha,
I see nodding your head. Alf the alien of Pinter
and ferg Dog. They they love these tire rack spots.
For over forty years, tyer Rack has been helping customers
find the right tires for how, what and where they drive,
(02:06):
ship fast and free back by free road hazard protection
with convenient installation options like mobile tire installation, tire iraq
dot com the way tire buying should be. So one
of the bosses around here over the years like to say,
you got to play the hits, mo man, play the hit.
So our lead this hour is the hour of Belichick.
The Hour of Belichick has upon us, Oh my god,
(02:30):
not worth about more than sixty seconds after what we witness.
But that's where we're going to start, and we'll see
where we go. But the Hour of Belichick. Our lead
is from North Carolina, where Bill Belichick made his much
anticipated much talked about coaching debut at the college level
all those years in the NFL. Here's Bill Belichick on
(02:52):
a random Labor day in twenty twenty five. Out there
all the buzz. North Carolina sold out all of their tickets,
all the season tickets, sold them out the power of hyperbolee.
Speaker 1 (03:05):
So they sold them all out.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
They raised the prices of the tickets and single game
seeds for the season. Everything was up up and they
sold them all. They all had their Carolina blue on
and ready to celebrate. And don't if you watch the
game or not, it got a lot of attention. Perhaps
you missed it. We watched so you would not have to.
(03:26):
We're happy to report that you didn't miss anything. You
did not miss anything of you did not watch. You
did not miss a damn thing. Let me explain, hay smokers,
Bill Belichick. His first run as a college coach at
North Carolina started fast. Opening drive sliced up TCU. They
(03:46):
get a touchdown, only to end up in an epic blowout.
After scoring on the first drive, North Carolina's football team,
the tar Hills, watched the horn Frogs scored forty one
answer unanswered points in one stretch forty one unanswered points
in one stretch, forty eight to fourteen. It could have
(04:07):
been worse than that. It was a laugher. North Carolina
on defense watching as TCU was driving the ball down
the field with a few seconds to go in the game,
and then they started taking knees there. Otherwise it would
have been double nickels. But forty eight to fourteen the final.
By the end, TCU had scored multiple defensive touchdowns. They
had a special teams touchdown in this game. And North
(04:30):
Carolina Tarhill fans acting like they were at Dodgers Stadium
as they left early. They left in the third quarter,
some leaving even before that. That stadium was mostly empty
by the time we got to the fourth quarter. How
bad was it? It was so bad Kirk Kerbstreet allowed
his dog to broadcast the game. Herbstreet allowed his dog
(04:52):
to broadcast the game because the game was for the dogs.
It was covered in fleas. Extended Garbaire's time. But let
us discuss the question with that as the backdrop. What
are your takeaways from Bill Belichick's maiden voyage his college football.
Speaker 1 (05:10):
Debut at North Carolina.
Speaker 2 (05:12):
So I've got biblical a bugs life and m behold,
and we will combine all of these things together, and
we are going to make some delicious deep fried cheese curds,
is what we're gonna make, Because that would have been better.
Just eating cheese curds would have been better than watching
this holy crap. At least they got paid for it, plausibly,
(05:34):
pay me to watch this crap, so I can come
in here and tell you about the crap that I watched.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
So hey, we'll start with this North Carolina.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
North Carolina football pulled off what I call and they
call this in Hollywood too, they fake out opening.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
Now, back in the day, there used to be these
things called movies.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
People would actually pay money to go to a movie theater,
believe it or not, back in the Stone Age, and
they'd buy like popcorn and snacks and they'd go watch
the movies. Right. Ah, man, it was a big thing
back in the old days. But humanity has evolved since then.
Nobody goes to the movies anymore. But imagine, if you will,
going to the movies back in the old Stone As
when people use Back in the day, they had payphones
and horse and buggy. So you go down to the
(06:11):
movie theater and there's a lot of hype for the movie,
and the first five.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
Minutes you're hooked, right, you are in.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
You're like, yes, it lived up to the hype and
your big car chase, huge explosion. Within the first five minutes,
You're like, this is gonna be a good one.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
Right.
Speaker 2 (06:28):
You're sitting there thinking, oh, baby, buckle up man, Finally
Hollywood made a good movie. Right, this is gonna be awesome, awesome,
And then for the rest of the movie, you know,
another hour and twenty five minutes or more, there's two
people just mumbling in some coffee shop about their feelings
(06:51):
for the next hour and twenty five minutes. It's like,
come on, I want a car crash. Well we got
a car crash. But it was supposed to be excitement,
huge explosions and all that stuff. Total bait and switch,
total bait and switch for North Carolina. And that's what
Bill Belichick in North Carolina pulled off that openly drive
seven plays, eighty three yards touchdown, Tarhells ow Man and
(07:16):
the Tarhels. They were fast and furious right there. Slicing
up the opening credits. There was like vin Diesel. The
whole package, however, turned out to be a mirage. It
was just an hallucination. A desert oasis is what it turned.
Speaker 1 (07:31):
Out to be.
Speaker 2 (07:31):
The real movie for North Carolina. That was a low budget,
I mean real low budget horror flick. And Bill Belichick,
he starred as the clueless babysitter that had no idea
as the horn Frogs appropriate a guy who's Belichick, very horny,
would lose to a team called the horn Frogs. Now
the first drive, the first drive, that was the trailer.
(07:55):
That was the trailer to the movie. The real product.
What followed was not so much football. It was biblical
in nature. It's a biblical flood, is what happened.
Speaker 1 (08:05):
Again.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
We mentioned forty one point avalanche, a forty one point
avalanche before the tar Hills would score again. And you
cut to Belichick and staring blankly with his cutoff sleeves
there on the hoodie, and that's the look there as
TCU hangs another touchdown, and another and another and another
(08:26):
and another and another touchdown. We're talking about an emasculation
situation to the highest order, fifth ring of Hell Dante's
Inferno type stuff. For North Carolina, TCU rolled into town.
They were the uninvited house guests. They were the interlopers.
They raided the fridge, they ripped the flat screen TV
(08:48):
off the wall, and they set the place on fire
with arson, is what they did. So Texas Christian turned
Bill Belichick and his debut in collegiate football into a
straight to DVD production, and.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
They don't even really make dvs anymore.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
All right now, page two, So how would you describe
the overall coaching job by Bill Belichick and his staff
in the Belichick debut at North Carolina. He might know
that he has his nepo baby as the defensive coordinator
for the Tarios, the Brownie James of defensive coordinators.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
There Belichick's son. So there's really no sugarcoating this.
Speaker 2 (09:25):
I have two words to describe, two words to describe
Bill Belichick and the job that his coaching staff did
for North Carolina. Coaching malpractice. Those are the two words.
That was malfeasance is what that was. If you want
a third word, pure and uncut. Pure and uncut. Forget
the raw talent and all that. Oh my god, forget
about all that. It's not about that. It's about the
(09:48):
central components of football, the building blocks. So yeah, Belichick,
he said well, in the NFL all those years, he
had teams that were not that talented, but he always
had Tom Brady for the Patriot run until the last
couple of years, and so you look at that, well,
that's the great equalizer and all that. And in Cleveland
he did actually have some teams that overachieved when he
(10:10):
was coaching the Cleveland Rounds way back, you know, thirty
something years ago, back back in the day. But the
basics for North Carolina, which is it doesn't matter how
much talent you have, it's simple blocking and tackling. If
you block and tackle the fundamentals, the bedrock of football,
you don't get smashed the way North Carolina got smashed.
(10:32):
And the line, which I believe in is you're either
coaching it. You're either coaching it or you're allowing it
to happen if you're the Belichick coaching staff, and either way,
it's on you. It's on Bill Belichick here and Belichick's
boys looked like lambs being led to the slaughter after
that opening drive there, and it was like watching as
(10:52):
the team was thirsty. North Carolina was thirsty, so they
got in front of the fire hydrant and the fire
hydrant was spraying at full blast and North Carolina's football
players were trying to get a drink, but they had
they were trying to sip. They had a little one
of those little bendy straws and they were trying to
drink from the bendy straw. You can't. You cannot drink
out of a fire hydrant with a bendy straw. Just
(11:13):
the math on that does not it does not work. Impossible.
But this was it was a bugs life. It was
a bugs life for the coaching staff in North Carolina because,
as we know, sometimes you're the windshield and sometimes you're
the bug.
Speaker 1 (11:27):
Splat. Yeah, they were splattered, They were splattered.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
And now it is a full on Bellichickian dog pile,
dog pile, dog pile, dogpile.
Speaker 1 (11:38):
It is right.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
He's being mocked, teased, humiliated, all of that. The hoodie
who once tortured, absolutely tortured rookie quarterbacks and when he
had extra time to prepare, you never wanted to bet
against ever ever, Bill Belichick, and he punked out all
of these quarterbacks and all these coaches for a generation.
(12:01):
And now he is being emotionally waterboarded on national TV,
on social media, the matrix, all that stuff they're just
unloading on Bill Belichick. I don't feel bad for Belichick
per se. I don't know that it's completely justified for
Bill Belichick, because when I listen to Tom Brady talk,
I hear a lot of the crap that Belichick says,
(12:23):
like Belichick influenced what Tom Brady became. Now, you could
argue that Brady did it better. Fine, I think that's
been proven since they went their separate ways. But it's
not like Tom Brady is not using BELICHICKI in lines
when he discusses his outlook on football, those are things
he learned from Bill Belichick, and he's just repeating the
(12:43):
dogma of Bill Belichick.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
So I think that's important to note here for all
the people's see it was all Tom Brady.
Speaker 2 (12:52):
Okay, okay, fine, But he's using a lot of the
material he learned from Bill Belichick. And so the hoodie
gets tortured there and waterboarded.
Speaker 1 (13:03):
And all that stuff.
Speaker 2 (13:04):
And the lesson is sometimes you're the maestro and sometimes
you're the kazoo player. And in this scene, in this
scene of the show, Bill Belichick is stuck playing the
kazoo while TC how do you do the marching band
blasts him off the field, get out of here, Belichick,
(13:26):
you're a bom. That guy's a bom. Now it's not
all bad. So I determined I had an epiphany. As
I was driving in, making the long drive in from
the north Woods here to the Mothership, I had an epiphany.
And the epiphany was that Bill Belichick will be getting
a call from Madison Avenue first thing in the morning
here as the people on Madison Avenue say, hey, Bill, Well,
(13:47):
I guess they'll call this little floozy girlfriend there and
she's like the business person, so she'll call. They'll call
him her and say, hey, we want Bill to do
a commercial. So what's the commercial for. What's it's an airline?
What airline?
Speaker 1 (13:58):
Is it? Delta is No, it's not America, It's not
Delta Way airline, is it?
Speaker 2 (14:01):
Well, it's Southwest. We want to do a new commercial.
They want to get away? Fair because that was a
want to get away situation, and most North Carolina fans
got away.
Speaker 1 (14:10):
They got out of there. I'm not staying at the
end of his crap.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
No way, all right, Last week we have some post
game Bill Belichick. Belichick post games sound always good to play,
Bill Belichick post game sound.
Speaker 1 (14:24):
Let's get a little taste, then we'll react.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
Here's Belichick commenting about this scene, the aura, the vibrations
there in Chapel Hill.
Speaker 1 (14:32):
Take a listen.
Speaker 4 (14:33):
Oh well, it was a great, you know, great atmosphere
here for the game tonight. You know, fans are tremendous
injury energy with the walk and you know we played
competitively but then just couldn't sustain.
Speaker 1 (14:45):
Obviously, we have a lot of work to do.
Speaker 4 (14:48):
You know, we need to do a better job all
the way around, coaching, playing all three phases of the game.
Just it wasn't up to what it needs to be.
And I know we're a lot better than that. So
we'll need to you know, need to work on those
things and show it on Saturday and quick turnaround. But
get TCU credit that came in. It did a good job,
and they were clearly the better team tonight. You know,
(15:11):
they deserve to win and they did it decisively.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
All right, So those are some opening comments by Bill
Belichick there. I liked that how he had said, hey,
we just couldn't keep it up. That there was one
drive North Carolina looked good like one drive one drive
and that's it, all right. So what do you make
of Bill Belichick in the tone the postgame comments of
Bill Belichick? To me, the quote that stood out is,
(15:37):
I know we're a lot better than that. To me,
that's the money quote. So I felt like all of
this was watered down. I watched it. It was about
thirteen minutes or so. I saw the news coms.
Speaker 1 (15:49):
It was. It was watered down.
Speaker 2 (15:51):
It was, and behold, numb little bug, a numb little
bug by Bill Belichick.
Speaker 1 (15:56):
Just numb.
Speaker 2 (15:57):
Just felt enough like it's a little of everything. Belichick.
You know, he knew he had to do it. He's
done this a million times after losses, and he's like
he's just kind of hanging by a thread there, Belichick,
and you got to survive it.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
And he did.
Speaker 2 (16:12):
And some of that sounded similarly to some of the
undertones he had when he was coaching the Patriots back
in the day. Some of the commentary there not quite
as sharp. I thought, the I know we're a lot
better than that. That's a bit of a stepping stone,
a bit of a stepping stone. I don't recall him
saying that very often coaching the Patriots.
Speaker 1 (16:31):
Of course, he didn't have to. They won most of
the games.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
They certainly won most of the big games with the Patriots,
So I don't recall him saying that bright side Bill
by Bellachick standards, that's bright side Bill and just the
statistical domination. The eyeball test said this was ridiculous. The
numbers back it up. North Carolina had ten first nouns,
most of those in garbage time. They went a couple
(16:54):
hours without completing a forward pass, and TCU had first downs.
They had nineteen more first downs TCU. Rushing yards. TCU
had two hundred and eight more rushing yards in the
North Carolina two hundred and eight more rushing yards. And
but wait, there's more. Overall yardage. The TCU horned frogs
(17:16):
got real horny. They had five hundred and forty two yards.
The tar Hills had two hundred and twenty two. My
computer like brain tells me that is a minus three
hundred and twenty for North Carolina plus three twenty for TCUs.
Speaker 1 (17:30):
So it was bad.
Speaker 2 (17:31):
So the question also is will it get any better?
Is this going to be how it goes all season
for Bill Belichick? Is this going to be a one
and done situation? Will he run out of coaching and
that's it and see you later. And that guy, Mike
Lombardi will go back and do bad podcasts, and these
guys will run off as carpetbaggers and go somewhere else.
(17:53):
You don't want to overreact. It's one stinking game, right
And the problem is it's how you make that first impression.
People are gonna remember that first impression. And this is
the first impression for Bill Belichick as a college coach,
and people are not gonna be paying that close attention.
They're gonna be on TV a lot because of Belichick,
but the most of the games are not gonna get
(18:14):
the attention. This was an island game on a holiday,
there was no NFL. It was his college debut, and
they allowed his team forty eight points, the most he's
ever allowed as a head coach. That is el Stinko.
It is the Ben Mahler Show. You want to come
in on any of this. We got an open board,

the Hour of Belichick. As North Carolina. Have you ever
stepped on a snail when you were a kid. That
was what TCU did to North Carolina. Not good. Hoop goofed.
(20:51):
I've got to know you're talking about that to fall out.
There is a celebration the demise of Bill Belichick, one
of the wonders of the modern world. With the Patriots
not anymore eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox the

(21:15):
FSR Tech Queen and Kopet Bronco fan. Your comments can
and we'll be used against you in the court of
sports radio. So I act accordingly the kangaroo court, and
now back to it. Back to it, spocks Weed writes
in from the Oregon Trail. He says, appreciatively channeling the
great Brian Wheeler, Bill Belichick's tar Hills were shock, stunned
(21:39):
and schlonged, losing the TCU can't wait to hear the
better story in Losing Locker Room. Well, the late great
Brian Wheeler, who was a friend of mine, one of
the iconic play by.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
Play voices in the NBA. Brian Wheeler wheels with the
Trailblazers back in the day.
Speaker 2 (21:54):
And if he was describing Brian Wheeler, if he was
describing this, he would have said that the performance of
North Carolina left Bill Belichick bemused, bewildered, and bedeviled. That's
the way that Wheeler would describe what happened in that one.
Speaker 1 (22:12):
Holy you know what?
Speaker 2 (22:15):
Yikes, yikes, yikes, yikes, yikes, yikes. Larry de says, put
your seat in the upright position, buckle up, and get
ready for another smooth takeoff on the Malor Show. Let's
see here, Nature boy, you have a problem. Nature boy
answering the call of the wild, says, who knew the
North Carolina points spread? Will it almost be as high
(22:36):
as the age difference between Bill and jor Dawn.
Speaker 1 (22:39):
It's a joke that many have had.
Speaker 2 (22:43):
Super Marcus Steve says, as a radio host who used
to do shows with Bella, your dog rest in peace
sitting next to you. And referencing her during the show.
I wonder why you hate Kurt Herbstreet. You misspelled Herbstreet's
name his dog being on the broadcast. Oh, the dog's
name is Ben, and you hate another Ben on TV
(23:04):
while you're not and it's a dog. Well, that's bad
knowledge by you, supermarket Steve, because shame on you. You're
referencing a dead dog. Ben, the dog is dead. You
just talked about a dead dog. And the channel of
the Great Casey case I'm sick and tired. Come in
here on an upbeat song, and I gotta do a
(23:26):
death dedication about a dog, a family dog, a dead dog.
Speaker 1 (23:31):
You know that whole thing. A lie's a live.
Speaker 2 (23:35):
One of the five greatest radio rants of all time.
But that's bad dog knowledge. Herbstreet's dog died. Ben So
his new dog.
Speaker 1 (23:42):
That was Peter. That was Peter the dog.
Speaker 2 (23:45):
The new Golden Retriever named Peter following the death of
Ben the dog. So got an update. If you're gonna
try to talk trash, you low brow troll, at.
Speaker 1 (23:57):
Least get it right. At least get it right now.
Speaker 2 (24:00):
Speaking of trolls, Marked the full name guy very active.
He says, never ever was it all Tom Brady. That
is some real happy horse bleep, unless you want to
count all the favorable refereeing and get Brady all the credit.
Speaker 1 (24:15):
Go right ahead.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
The Giants with two mediocre teams beat the Patriots twice
with less pass rush. Well, it's also Mark, don't forget
that bogus bullcrap call which was not a catch when
Eli Manning was in the grasp and the David tyree
they called it a helmet catch. Was with bullcrap, He says.
Mark also marked the full name guy who had a birthday,
(24:36):
but is still as bitter and jaded as always. He says,
never ever was it all Tom Brady? He said, And
he goes on to say, after overreacting for the first
game loss by a non football school, you say you
don't want to overreact. Haha, you really want to head
your hyperbole.
Speaker 1 (24:54):
No, I'm not.
Speaker 2 (24:55):
And Belichick when he's there, that's a football school. Belichick
is there, that's a football school. Don from Duluth, very
positive Minnesota, nice and beautiful Duluth where I enjoyed a
nice day years ago and had a great time going
on on the lake there. I went to the Costco
(25:15):
in Duluth, I've been to the costco into Luth, Minnesota.
Speaker 1 (25:18):
Do they have better samples? It's the same. That's the same.
Speaker 2 (25:23):
Vancouver is the only costco that I've been to that
has different stuff. Oh yeah, that was very nice, Don says,
great monologue. Attilo says, poor Bill forget to feed his
I forgot to feed his team the barbecue gabba ghoul tilla.
He loves to hear the word gabba ghoul on the radio.
(25:43):
And he says, Mark all Marks, Mark's really just carpet
bombing me, Marked, the full name guy. He's really got
a lot to say. He says, like all the hullaballoo
over arch Manning versus Ohio State, only ninety five passed
attempts before the game.
Speaker 1 (26:00):
Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. Okay again, Mark,
you could just shut your bag.
Speaker 2 (26:05):
They don't tell me to wait till the end of
the college football season. And once the NFL gets going,
we'll forget all about Belichick with North Carolina, We'll forget
all about arch.
Speaker 1 (26:14):
Manning at Texas. We'll just focus on the NFL.
Speaker 2 (26:17):
So we have a couple more days to go, and
then it's all NFL all the time. King Roy says,
I wouldn't be surprised if TCU let North Carolina score
first so they could prove provide rather a false hope
for the Tar Hills. There is nothing like spoiling the
debut of a highly anticipated head coach at their home opener,
(26:39):
especially in the college level. That seems outrageous. That's tinfoil
hat stuff, King Roy. I gotta tell you though, I did.
I was in a text chain with a couple of
people who are like, the way North Carolina came out
and just sliced up TCU and then the way they
played the rest of the game is like, what's going
on here? Remember the All Star Game? Baseball All Star Game?
(26:59):
Who is the pitcher that admitted to grooving a pitch?
I think it was for Derek Jeter in the All
Star Game because a couple of years ago he was like,
I don't remember the exact I think it was a
Cardinal pitcher. If you remember, let me know. I know
you guys love to correct the host, but I remember
doing a monologu about it. I think it was a
guy with the Cardinals and he said something he wasn't
supposed to say about how they groove to pitch to
(27:19):
Jeter in his final All Star Game. Late Night Drug
tester says, I was hoping Bill would have just said
the said at the postgame presser, I'm getting too old
for this Bullpucky.
Speaker 1 (27:30):
Too old for this blank man. By the way I'm talking.
Speaker 2 (27:34):
Adam Wainwright was the guy that admitted he groove to
pitch to Derek Jeter in the All Star Game. There,
your voice of my head might not have been justin Cooper,
Uh said that?
Speaker 1 (27:42):
What else do we have?
Speaker 2 (27:44):
Eileen and San Francisco says, worst beat down by Christians
since the Crusades. All right, we're now, we're getting into
deep into the weeds.
Speaker 1 (27:54):
Let the games begin.
Speaker 2 (27:55):
Femi, the number one uber eat driver in Minnesota, says
the humiliate was beyond believement. What exactly was Coach Belichick
looking for? He's got the check, he's got millions in
the bank. He's supposed to be working overnight with you
on the radio. Yeah, I'd love to see Belichick hoost
the show. There'd be nothing but dead air. He's like
(28:17):
one lines pause. Yeah, all right, Firk Dogs is rest
in peace to Ben the dog is what he has
to say. All Right, it is the Ben Mahlashow. It's
the hour of Bill Belichick. We're reacting to the beatdown
by TCU and among the things that took place in
(28:39):
that game on Monday night, it was a starry night
as Michael Jordan, the greatest basketball player of all time,
along with the greatest defensive player.
Speaker 1 (28:48):
Of all time in the NFL, Lawrence Taylor. They were there.
Speaker 2 (28:52):
Julius Peppers, he was there, Roy Williams, Gollie g Roy
Williams there. He showed up, the North Carolina coaching legend,
basketball coaching legend. I did think it was amusing though,
that Belichick's twenty four year old girlfriend, Jordaan Hudson, was
spotted watching the debut of her Sugar Dadday watching the
(29:16):
debut there alongside Randy Moss. It was appropriate. You see,
Randy Moss is forty eight years old, the exact age
gap between Jordan Hudson and Bill Belichick.
Speaker 1 (29:26):
So of all the.
Speaker 2 (29:27):
People to hang out with, yes, I mean, just cut
the middle right there. He's forty eight, she's twenty four.
The come on, man, why not? What the heck?
Speaker 1 (29:38):
Go for it? Yeah, I mean, it's just what's happening nowadays.
You see so many young women who are dating older
general your grandfather's yeah, best friend. Well this is not
I don't think it's new though. I don't think it's new.
Speaker 2 (29:51):
I think it's always happened because there's always a certain percentage.
I'm gonna now say for the women, there's a certain
percentage of women who were like, Hey, this is a
fast pass.
Speaker 1 (30:02):
I can get.
Speaker 2 (30:03):
The pot of gold, I can do it on OnlyFans,
or I can date with Bill Belichick.
Speaker 1 (30:08):
Why would the man want that? I don't under I don't.
Speaker 2 (30:12):
I don't know what what does she have that Belichick
would want?
Speaker 1 (30:15):
I have no idea. I mean I can think of
a couple of things.
Speaker 2 (30:18):
His age, no sensible, probably less drama filled.
Speaker 1 (30:25):
I don't know. She's not trying to market a brand
called gold Digger.
Speaker 6 (30:29):
Like when you're that old, you've got you don't like,
how much time do you have left? You really care
about any of that. I just want to go out
with a bang. Literally, Yes, I wonder.
Speaker 1 (30:40):
If he's got blue shoe.
Speaker 2 (30:42):
I think he's got every product we sell on overnight radio.
He's bought all of them, every every single enhancement product
we do commercials for Belichick's he's got stocking them. Well,
the good thing is all that Belichick crap they're making
with all his slogans.
Speaker 1 (30:55):
You can buy it ross dress for less. Soon.
Speaker 2 (30:57):
I mean it'll all be on the discount racket, Marshalls
and all that stuff. You'll be able to buy all that,
all that discounted. My goodness, Holy.
Speaker 1 (31:05):
Holy Man, alive, men alive.
Speaker 2 (31:08):
And the sports books apparently made a killing as North
Carolina got a lot of hype some of the numbers.
This was a couple hours before the game. North Carolina
got seventy five percent of the bets at one of
the books that released their information, sixty two percent of
the money, so they were only a three and a
(31:28):
half I think it was three and a half point underdog,
so it didn't come close to obviously covering the spread.
So that means that based on that the that particular
book took in a sixty two percent well not sixty
two percent profit, but they they ended up coming out
way ahead, way ahead.
Speaker 1 (31:46):
Let's go to the phones.
Speaker 2 (31:47):
A Big Balls Bob is in Lost Wages, Nevada. Hello,
Big Balls Bob.

make the playoffs?
Speaker 1 (32:11):
Playoffs? Playoffs?
Speaker 2 (32:13):
No? Actually, North Carolina is tanking for the number one pick.
Somebody has to explain to Belichick there is no number
one pick in college football.
Speaker 7 (32:21):
To kind of watching the game was kind of like
watching a Bears game when they had sexy Rex Grossman
and Jake Cutler and it was just like agony.
Speaker 2 (32:32):
It was pure, pure agony there. It was a disaster. Yeah,
it was not good.
Speaker 1 (32:38):
They didn't have sexy Wrexy. They don't even coach the Bears.
What are you talking about?
Speaker 7 (32:41):
No? No, when he was a quarterback, good sexy.
Speaker 2 (32:44):

my head and you can't stop saying it, you know.
I do like the word hutzba. I like that word.
Speaker 7 (33:37):
That's a good word, right, huts close to someone when

Show podcast on this Tuesday, the second day of September.
What are your takeaways from Bill Belichick's college football debut
at North Carolina as it was blow out city TCU
(00:27):
getting her done in a large domination situation. Also, how
would you describe the job that Belichick and his staff
did in his North Carolina coaching debut And what did
you make of Belichick's tone in his postgame comments after
a historically horrific debacle in Chapel Hill or Chapel Bill,
(00:49):
We'll get to all of that and a whole lot
more right now here. It is our number one.
Speaker 1 (00:58):
All dressed up and ready to There was no party.
Speaker 3 (01:02):
Welcome in the beginning of another night of the Ben
Mahler Show. We are in the air every wares we
chatter away coast to coast, border the border in beyond.
On the mast and lavishly powerful microphones of fast stars.
(01:24):
We get jiggy with it, emanating lives from the thermometer
as you and I we take the temperature in the
room from the world famous Fox Sports Radio Studios, as
approved by Spacoli, who lives in Chapel Hill and works
with the Dreaded day Shift, now a former.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
Nocturnal listener but now working in the Dreaded day Shift.
And this portion of the Ben Malers show made possible
in part by our friends at tire Rack. That's right, Alpha,
I see nodding your head. Alf the alien of Pinter
and ferg Dog. They they love these tire rack spots.
For over forty years, tyer Rack has been helping customers
find the right tires for how, what and where they drive,
(02:06):
ship fast and free back by free road hazard protection
with convenient installation options like mobile tire installation, tire iraq
dot com the way tire buying should be. So one
of the bosses around here over the years like to say,
you got to play the hits, mo man, play the hit.
So our lead this hour is the hour of Belichick.
The Hour of Belichick has upon us, Oh my god,
(02:30):
not worth about more than sixty seconds after what we witness.
But that's where we're going to start, and we'll see
where we go. But the Hour of Belichick. Our lead
is from North Carolina, where Bill Belichick made his much
anticipated much talked about coaching debut at the college level
all those years in the NFL. Here's Bill Belichick on
(02:52):
a random Labor day in twenty twenty five. Out there
all the buzz. North Carolina sold out all of their tickets,
all the season tickets, sold them out the power of hyperbolee.
Speaker 1 (03:05):
So they sold them all out.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
They raised the prices of the tickets and single game
seeds for the season. Everything was up up and they
sold them all. They all had their Carolina blue on
and ready to celebrate. And don't if you watch the
game or not, it got a lot of attention. Perhaps
you missed it. We watched so you would not have to.
(03:26):
We're happy to report that you didn't miss anything. You
did not miss anything of you did not watch. You
did not miss a damn thing. Let me explain, hay smokers,
Bill Belichick. His first run as a college coach at
North Carolina started fast. Opening drive sliced up TCU. They
(03:46):
get a touchdown, only to end up in an epic blowout.
After scoring on the first drive, North Carolina's football team,
the tar Hills, watched the horn Frogs scored forty one
answer unanswered points in one stretch forty one unanswered points
in one stretch, forty eight to fourteen. It could have
(04:07):
been worse than that. It was a laugher. North Carolina
on defense watching as TCU was driving the ball down
the field with a few seconds to go in the game,
and then they started taking knees there. Otherwise it would
have been double nickels. But forty eight to fourteen the final.
By the end, TCU had scored multiple defensive touchdowns. They
had a special teams touchdown in this game. And North
(04:30):
Carolina Tarhill fans acting like they were at Dodgers Stadium
as they left early. They left in the third quarter,
some leaving even before that. That stadium was mostly empty
by the time we got to the fourth quarter. How
bad was it? It was so bad Kirk Kerbstreet allowed
his dog to broadcast the game. Herbstreet allowed his dog
(04:52):
to broadcast the game because the game was for the dogs.
It was covered in fleas. Extended Garbaire's time. But let
us discuss the question with that as the backdrop. What
are your takeaways from Bill Belichick's maiden voyage his college football.
Speaker 1 (05:10):
Debut at North Carolina.
Speaker 2 (05:12):
So I've got biblical a bugs life and m behold,
and we will combine all of these things together, and
we are going to make some delicious deep fried cheese curds,
is what we're gonna make, Because that would have been better.
Just eating cheese curds would have been better than watching
this holy crap. At least they got paid for it, plausibly,
(05:34):
pay me to watch this crap, so I can come
in here and tell you about the crap that I watched.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
So hey, we'll start with this North Carolina.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
North Carolina football pulled off what I call and they
call this in Hollywood too, they fake out opening.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
Now, back in the day, there used to be these
things called movies.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
People would actually pay money to go to a movie theater,
believe it or not, back in the Stone Age, and
they'd buy like popcorn and snacks and they'd go watch
the movies. Right. Ah, man, it was a big thing
back in the old days. But humanity has evolved since then.
Nobody goes to the movies anymore. But imagine, if you will,
going to the movies back in the old Stone As
when people use Back in the day, they had payphones
and horse and buggy. So you go down to the
(06:11):
movie theater and there's a lot of hype for the movie,
and the first five.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
Minutes you're hooked, right, you are in.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
You're like, yes, it lived up to the hype and
your big car chase, huge explosion. Within the first five minutes,
You're like, this is gonna be a good one.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
Right.
Speaker 2 (06:28):
You're sitting there thinking, oh, baby, buckle up man, Finally
Hollywood made a good movie. Right, this is gonna be awesome, awesome,
And then for the rest of the movie, you know,
another hour and twenty five minutes or more, there's two
people just mumbling in some coffee shop about their feelings
(06:51):
for the next hour and twenty five minutes. It's like,
come on, I want a car crash. Well we got
a car crash. But it was supposed to be excitement,
huge explosions and all that stuff. Total bait and switch,
total bait and switch for North Carolina. And that's what
Bill Belichick in North Carolina pulled off that openly drive
seven plays, eighty three yards touchdown, Tarhells ow Man and
(07:16):
the Tarhels. They were fast and furious right there. Slicing
up the opening credits. There was like vin Diesel. The
whole package, however, turned out to be a mirage. It
was just an hallucination. A desert oasis is what it turned.
Speaker 1 (07:31):
Out to be.
Speaker 2 (07:31):
The real movie for North Carolina. That was a low budget,
I mean real low budget horror flick. And Bill Belichick,
he starred as the clueless babysitter that had no idea
as the horn Frogs appropriate a guy who's Belichick, very horny,
would lose to a team called the horn Frogs. Now
the first drive, the first drive, that was the trailer.
(07:55):
That was the trailer to the movie. The real product.
What followed was not so much football. It was biblical
in nature. It's a biblical flood, is what happened.
Speaker 1 (08:05):
Again.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
We mentioned forty one point avalanche, a forty one point
avalanche before the tar Hills would score again. And you
cut to Belichick and staring blankly with his cutoff sleeves
there on the hoodie, and that's the look there as
TCU hangs another touchdown, and another and another and another
(08:26):
and another and another touchdown. We're talking about an emasculation
situation to the highest order, fifth ring of Hell Dante's
Inferno type stuff. For North Carolina, TCU rolled into town.
They were the uninvited house guests. They were the interlopers.
They raided the fridge, they ripped the flat screen TV
(08:48):
off the wall, and they set the place on fire
with arson, is what they did. So Texas Christian turned
Bill Belichick and his debut in collegiate football into a
straight to DVD production, and.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
They don't even really make dvs anymore.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
All right now, page two, So how would you describe
the overall coaching job by Bill Belichick and his staff
in the Belichick debut at North Carolina. He might know
that he has his nepo baby as the defensive coordinator
for the Tarios, the Brownie James of defensive coordinators.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
There Belichick's son. So there's really no sugarcoating this.
Speaker 2 (09:25):
I have two words to describe, two words to describe
Bill Belichick and the job that his coaching staff did
for North Carolina. Coaching malpractice. Those are the two words.
That was malfeasance is what that was. If you want
a third word, pure and uncut. Pure and uncut. Forget
the raw talent and all that. Oh my god, forget
about all that. It's not about that. It's about the
(09:48):
central components of football, the building blocks. So yeah, Belichick,
he said well, in the NFL all those years, he
had teams that were not that talented, but he always
had Tom Brady for the Patriot run until the last
couple of years, and so you look at that, well,
that's the great equalizer and all that. And in Cleveland
he did actually have some teams that overachieved when he
(10:10):
was coaching the Cleveland Rounds way back, you know, thirty
something years ago, back back in the day. But the
basics for North Carolina, which is it doesn't matter how
much talent you have, it's simple blocking and tackling. If
you block and tackle the fundamentals, the bedrock of football,
you don't get smashed the way North Carolina got smashed.
(10:32):
And the line, which I believe in is you're either
coaching it. You're either coaching it or you're allowing it
to happen if you're the Belichick coaching staff, and either way,
it's on you. It's on Bill Belichick here and Belichick's
boys looked like lambs being led to the slaughter after
that opening drive there, and it was like watching as
(10:52):
the team was thirsty. North Carolina was thirsty, so they
got in front of the fire hydrant and the fire
hydrant was spraying at full blast and North Carolina's football
players were trying to get a drink, but they had
they were trying to sip. They had a little one
of those little bendy straws and they were trying to
drink from the bendy straw. You can't. You cannot drink
out of a fire hydrant with a bendy straw. Just
(11:13):
the math on that does not it does not work. Impossible.
But this was it was a bugs life. It was
a bugs life for the coaching staff in North Carolina because,
as we know, sometimes you're the windshield and sometimes you're
the bug.
Speaker 1 (11:27):
Splat. Yeah, they were splattered, They were splattered.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
And now it is a full on Bellichickian dog pile,
dog pile, dog pile, dogpile.
Speaker 1 (11:38):
It is right.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
He's being mocked, teased, humiliated, all of that. The hoodie
who once tortured, absolutely tortured rookie quarterbacks and when he
had extra time to prepare, you never wanted to bet
against ever ever, Bill Belichick, and he punked out all
of these quarterbacks and all these coaches for a generation.
(12:01):
And now he is being emotionally waterboarded on national TV,
on social media, the matrix, all that stuff they're just
unloading on Bill Belichick. I don't feel bad for Belichick
per se. I don't know that it's completely justified for
Bill Belichick, because when I listen to Tom Brady talk,
I hear a lot of the crap that Belichick says,
(12:23):
like Belichick influenced what Tom Brady became. Now, you could
argue that Brady did it better. Fine, I think that's
been proven since they went their separate ways. But it's
not like Tom Brady is not using BELICHICKI in lines
when he discusses his outlook on football, those are things
he learned from Bill Belichick, and he's just repeating the
(12:43):
dogma of Bill Belichick.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
So I think that's important to note here for all
the people's see it was all Tom Brady.
Speaker 2 (12:52):
Okay, okay, fine, But he's using a lot of the
material he learned from Bill Belichick. And so the hoodie
gets tortured there and waterboarded.
Speaker 1 (13:03):
And all that stuff.
Speaker 2 (13:04):
And the lesson is sometimes you're the maestro and sometimes
you're the kazoo player. And in this scene, in this
scene of the show, Bill Belichick is stuck playing the
kazoo while TC how do you do the marching band
blasts him off the field, get out of here, Belichick,
(13:26):
you're a bom. That guy's a bom. Now it's not
all bad. So I determined I had an epiphany. As
I was driving in, making the long drive in from
the north Woods here to the Mothership, I had an epiphany.
And the epiphany was that Bill Belichick will be getting
a call from Madison Avenue first thing in the morning
here as the people on Madison Avenue say, hey, Bill, Well,
(13:47):
I guess they'll call this little floozy girlfriend there and
she's like the business person, so she'll call. They'll call
him her and say, hey, we want Bill to do
a commercial. So what's the commercial for. What's it's an airline?
What airline?
Speaker 1 (13:58):
Is it? Delta is No, it's not America, It's not
Delta Way airline, is it?
Speaker 2 (14:01):
Well, it's Southwest. We want to do a new commercial.
They want to get away? Fair because that was a
want to get away situation, and most North Carolina fans
got away.
Speaker 1 (14:10):
They got out of there. I'm not staying at the
end of his crap.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
No way, all right, Last week we have some post
game Bill Belichick. Belichick post games sound always good to play,
Bill Belichick post game sound.
Speaker 1 (14:24):
Let's get a little taste, then we'll react.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
Here's Belichick commenting about this scene, the aura, the vibrations
there in Chapel Hill.
Speaker 1 (14:32):
Take a listen.
Speaker 4 (14:33):
Oh well, it was a great, you know, great atmosphere
here for the game tonight. You know, fans are tremendous
injury energy with the walk and you know we played
competitively but then just couldn't sustain.
Speaker 1 (14:45):
Obviously, we have a lot of work to do.
Speaker 4 (14:48):
You know, we need to do a better job all
the way around, coaching, playing all three phases of the game.
Just it wasn't up to what it needs to be.
And I know we're a lot better than that. So
we'll need to you know, need to work on those
things and show it on Saturday and quick turnaround. But
get TCU credit that came in. It did a good job,
and they were clearly the better team tonight. You know,
(15:11):
they deserve to win and they did it decisively.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
All right, So those are some opening comments by Bill
Belichick there. I liked that how he had said, hey,
we just couldn't keep it up. That there was one
drive North Carolina looked good like one drive one drive
and that's it, all right. So what do you make
of Bill Belichick in the tone the postgame comments of
Bill Belichick? To me, the quote that stood out is,
(15:37):
I know we're a lot better than that. To me,
that's the money quote. So I felt like all of
this was watered down. I watched it. It was about
thirteen minutes or so. I saw the news coms.
Speaker 1 (15:49):
It was. It was watered down.
Speaker 2 (15:51):
It was, and behold, numb little bug, a numb little
bug by Bill Belichick.
Speaker 1 (15:56):
Just numb.
Speaker 2 (15:57):
Just felt enough like it's a little of everything. Belichick.
You know, he knew he had to do it. He's
done this a million times after losses, and he's like
he's just kind of hanging by a thread there, Belichick,
and you got to survive it.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
And he did.
Speaker 2 (16:12):
And some of that sounded similarly to some of the
undertones he had when he was coaching the Patriots back
in the day. Some of the commentary there not quite
as sharp. I thought, the I know we're a lot
better than that. That's a bit of a stepping stone,
a bit of a stepping stone. I don't recall him
saying that very often coaching the Patriots.
Speaker 1 (16:31):
Of course, he didn't have to. They won most of
the games.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
They certainly won most of the big games with the Patriots,
So I don't recall him saying that bright side Bill
by Bellachick standards, that's bright side Bill and just the
statistical domination. The eyeball test said this was ridiculous. The
numbers back it up. North Carolina had ten first nouns,
most of those in garbage time. They went a couple
(16:54):
hours without completing a forward pass, and TCU had first downs.
They had nineteen more first downs TCU. Rushing yards. TCU
had two hundred and eight more rushing yards in the
North Carolina two hundred and eight more rushing yards. And
but wait, there's more. Overall yardage. The TCU horned frogs
(17:16):
got real horny. They had five hundred and forty two yards.
The tar Hills had two hundred and twenty two. My
computer like brain tells me that is a minus three
hundred and twenty for North Carolina plus three twenty for TCUs.
Speaker 1 (17:30):
So it was bad.
Speaker 2 (17:31):
So the question also is will it get any better?
Is this going to be how it goes all season
for Bill Belichick? Is this going to be a one
and done situation? Will he run out of coaching and
that's it and see you later. And that guy, Mike
Lombardi will go back and do bad podcasts, and these
guys will run off as carpetbaggers and go somewhere else.
(17:53):
You don't want to overreact. It's one stinking game, right
And the problem is it's how you make that first impression.
People are gonna remember that first impression. And this is
the first impression for Bill Belichick as a college coach,
and people are not gonna be paying that close attention.
They're gonna be on TV a lot because of Belichick,
but the most of the games are not gonna get
(18:14):
the attention. This was an island game on a holiday,
there was no NFL. It was his college debut, and
they allowed his team forty eight points, the most he's
ever allowed as a head coach. That is el Stinko.
It is the Ben Mahler Show. You want to come
in on any of this. We got an open board,
Abra cadabra, hocus pocus pressta.

Bill Miller. It is the Ben Mahler Show. The Red
Eye flight has taken off. We have not reached our
cruising altitude yet. As we moloviate all night long. It's
the Hour of Belichick. As North Carolina. Have you ever
stepped on a snail when you were a kid. That
was what TCU did to North Carolina. Not good. Hoop goofed.
(20:51):
I've got to know you're talking about that to fall out.
There is a celebration the demise of Bill Belichick, one
of the wonders of the modern world. With the Patriots
not anymore eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox the
call in number old school overnight talk radio. Also on
X at Ben Mahler. That's at Ben Maler saleo to Lorrain,
(21:15):
FSR Tech Queen and Kopet Bronco fan. Your comments can
and we'll be used against you in the court of
sports radio. So I act accordingly the kangaroo court, and
now back to it. Back to it, spocks Weed writes
in from the Oregon Trail. He says, appreciatively channeling the
great Brian Wheeler, Bill Belichick's tar Hills were shock, stunned
(21:39):
and schlonged, losing the TCU can't wait to hear the
better story in Losing Locker Room. Well, the late great
Brian Wheeler, who was a friend of mine, one of
the iconic play by.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
Play voices in the NBA. Brian Wheeler wheels with the
Trailblazers back in the day.
Speaker 2 (21:54):
And if he was describing Brian Wheeler, if he was
describing this, he would have said that the performance of
North Carolina left Bill Belichick bemused, bewildered, and bedeviled. That's
the way that Wheeler would describe what happened in that one.
Speaker 1 (22:12):
Holy you know what?
Speaker 2 (22:15):
Yikes, yikes, yikes, yikes, yikes, yikes. Larry de says, put
your seat in the upright position, buckle up, and get
ready for another smooth takeoff on the Malor Show. Let's
see here, Nature boy, you have a problem. Nature boy
answering the call of the wild, says, who knew the
North Carolina points spread? Will it almost be as high
(22:36):
as the age difference between Bill and jor Dawn.
Speaker 1 (22:39):
It's a joke that many have had.
Speaker 2 (22:43):
Super Marcus Steve says, as a radio host who used
to do shows with Bella, your dog rest in peace
sitting next to you. And referencing her during the show.
I wonder why you hate Kurt Herbstreet. You misspelled Herbstreet's
name his dog being on the broadcast. Oh, the dog's
name is Ben, and you hate another Ben on TV
(23:04):
while you're not and it's a dog. Well, that's bad
knowledge by you, supermarket Steve, because shame on you. You're
referencing a dead dog. Ben, the dog is dead. You
just talked about a dead dog. And the channel of
the Great Casey case I'm sick and tired. Come in
here on an upbeat song, and I gotta do a
(23:26):
death dedication about a dog, a family dog, a dead dog.
Speaker 1 (23:31):
You know that whole thing. A lie's a live.
Speaker 2 (23:35):
One of the five greatest radio rants of all time.
But that's bad dog knowledge. Herbstreet's dog died. Ben So
his new dog.
Speaker 1 (23:42):
That was Peter. That was Peter the dog.
Speaker 2 (23:45):
The new Golden Retriever named Peter following the death of
Ben the dog. So got an update. If you're gonna
try to talk trash, you low brow troll, at.
Speaker 1 (23:57):
Least get it right. At least get it right now.
Speaker 2 (24:00):
Speaking of trolls, Marked the full name guy very active.
He says, never ever was it all Tom Brady. That
is some real happy horse bleep, unless you want to
count all the favorable refereeing and get Brady all the credit.
Speaker 1 (24:15):
Go right ahead.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
The Giants with two mediocre teams beat the Patriots twice
with less pass rush. Well, it's also Mark, don't forget
that bogus bullcrap call which was not a catch when
Eli Manning was in the grasp and the David tyree
they called it a helmet catch. Was with bullcrap, He says.
Mark also marked the full name guy who had a birthday,
(24:36):
but is still as bitter and jaded as always. He says,
never ever was it all Tom Brady? He said, And
he goes on to say, after overreacting for the first
game loss by a non football school, you say you
don't want to overreact. Haha, you really want to head
your hyperbole.
Speaker 1 (24:54):
No, I'm not.
Speaker 2 (24:55):
And Belichick when he's there, that's a football school. Belichick
is there, that's a football school. Don from Duluth, very
positive Minnesota, nice and beautiful Duluth where I enjoyed a
nice day years ago and had a great time going
on on the lake there. I went to the Costco
(25:15):
in Duluth, I've been to the costco into Luth, Minnesota.
Speaker 1 (25:18):
Do they have better samples? It's the same. That's the same.
Speaker 2 (25:23):
Vancouver is the only costco that I've been to that
has different stuff. Oh yeah, that was very nice, Don says,
great monologue. Attilo says, poor Bill forget to feed his
I forgot to feed his team the barbecue gabba ghoul tilla.
He loves to hear the word gabba ghoul on the radio.
(25:43):
And he says, Mark all Marks, Mark's really just carpet
bombing me, Marked, the full name guy. He's really got
a lot to say. He says, like all the hullaballoo
over arch Manning versus Ohio State, only ninety five passed
attempts before the game.
Speaker 1 (26:00):
Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. Okay again, Mark,
you could just shut your bag.
Speaker 2 (26:05):
They don't tell me to wait till the end of
the college football season. And once the NFL gets going,
we'll forget all about Belichick with North Carolina, We'll forget
all about arch.
Speaker 1 (26:14):
Manning at Texas. We'll just focus on the NFL.
Speaker 2 (26:17):
So we have a couple more days to go, and
then it's all NFL all the time. King Roy says,
I wouldn't be surprised if TCU let North Carolina score
first so they could prove provide rather a false hope
for the Tar Hills. There is nothing like spoiling the
debut of a highly anticipated head coach at their home opener,
(26:39):
especially in the college level. That seems outrageous. That's tinfoil
hat stuff, King Roy. I gotta tell you though, I did.
I was in a text chain with a couple of
people who are like, the way North Carolina came out
and just sliced up TCU and then the way they
played the rest of the game is like, what's going
on here? Remember the All Star Game? Baseball All Star Game?
(26:59):
Who is the pitcher that admitted to grooving a pitch?
I think it was for Derek Jeter in the All
Star Game because a couple of years ago he was like,
I don't remember the exact I think it was a
Cardinal pitcher. If you remember, let me know. I know
you guys love to correct the host, but I remember
doing a monologu about it. I think it was a
guy with the Cardinals and he said something he wasn't
supposed to say about how they groove to pitch to
(27:19):
Jeter in his final All Star Game. Late Night Drug
tester says, I was hoping Bill would have just said
the said at the postgame presser, I'm getting too old
for this Bullpucky.
Speaker 1 (27:30):
Too old for this blank man. By the way I'm talking.
Speaker 2 (27:34):
Adam Wainwright was the guy that admitted he groove to
pitch to Derek Jeter in the All Star Game. There,
your voice of my head might not have been justin Cooper,
Uh said that?
Speaker 1 (27:42):
What else do we have?
Speaker 2 (27:44):
Eileen and San Francisco says, worst beat down by Christians
since the Crusades. All right, we're now, we're getting into
deep into the weeds.
Speaker 1 (27:54):
Let the games begin.
Speaker 2 (27:55):
Femi, the number one uber eat driver in Minnesota, says
the humiliate was beyond believement. What exactly was Coach Belichick
looking for? He's got the check, he's got millions in
the bank. He's supposed to be working overnight with you
on the radio. Yeah, I'd love to see Belichick hoost
the show. There'd be nothing but dead air. He's like
(28:17):
one lines pause. Yeah, all right, Firk Dogs is rest
in peace to Ben the dog is what he has
to say. All Right, it is the Ben Mahlashow. It's
the hour of Bill Belichick. We're reacting to the beatdown
by TCU and among the things that took place in
(28:39):
that game on Monday night, it was a starry night
as Michael Jordan, the greatest basketball player of all time,
along with the greatest defensive player.
Speaker 1 (28:48):
Of all time in the NFL, Lawrence Taylor. They were there.
Speaker 2 (28:52):
Julius Peppers, he was there, Roy Williams, Gollie g Roy
Williams there. He showed up, the North Carolina coaching legend,
basketball coaching legend. I did think it was amusing though,
that Belichick's twenty four year old girlfriend, Jordaan Hudson, was
spotted watching the debut of her Sugar Dadday watching the
(29:16):
debut there alongside Randy Moss. It was appropriate. You see,
Randy Moss is forty eight years old, the exact age
gap between Jordan Hudson and Bill Belichick.
Speaker 1 (29:26):
So of all the.
Speaker 2 (29:27):
People to hang out with, yes, I mean, just cut
the middle right there. He's forty eight, she's twenty four.
The come on, man, why not? What the heck?
Speaker 1 (29:38):
Go for it? Yeah, I mean, it's just what's happening nowadays.
You see so many young women who are dating older
general your grandfather's yeah, best friend. Well this is not
I don't think it's new though. I don't think it's new.
Speaker 2 (29:51):
I think it's always happened because there's always a certain percentage.
I'm gonna now say for the women, there's a certain
percentage of women who were like, Hey, this is a
fast pass.
Speaker 1 (30:02):
I can get.
Speaker 2 (30:03):
The pot of gold, I can do it on OnlyFans,
or I can date with Bill Belichick.
Speaker 1 (30:08):
Why would the man want that? I don't under I don't.
Speaker 2 (30:12):
I don't know what what does she have that Belichick
would want?
Speaker 1 (30:15):
I have no idea. I mean I can think of
a couple of things.
Speaker 2 (30:18):
His age, no sensible, probably less drama filled.
Speaker 1 (30:25):
I don't know. She's not trying to market a brand
called gold Digger.
Speaker 6 (30:29):
Like when you're that old, you've got you don't like,
how much time do you have left? You really care
about any of that. I just want to go out
with a bang. Literally, Yes, I wonder.
Speaker 1 (30:40):
If he's got blue shoe.
Speaker 2 (30:42):
I think he's got every product we sell on overnight radio.
He's bought all of them, every every single enhancement product
we do commercials for Belichick's he's got stocking them. Well,
the good thing is all that Belichick crap they're making
with all his slogans.
Speaker 1 (30:55):
You can buy it ross dress for less. Soon.
Speaker 2 (30:57):
I mean it'll all be on the discount racket, Marshalls
and all that stuff. You'll be able to buy all that,
all that discounted. My goodness, Holy.
Speaker 1 (31:05):
Holy Man, alive, men alive.
Speaker 2 (31:08):
And the sports books apparently made a killing as North
Carolina got a lot of hype some of the numbers.
This was a couple hours before the game. North Carolina
got seventy five percent of the bets at one of
the books that released their information, sixty two percent of
the money, so they were only a three and a
(31:28):
half I think it was three and a half point underdog,
so it didn't come close to obviously covering the spread.
So that means that based on that the that particular
book took in a sixty two percent well not sixty
two percent profit, but they they ended up coming out
way ahead, way ahead.
Speaker 1 (31:46):
Let's go to the phones.
Speaker 2 (31:47):
A Big Balls Bob is in Lost Wages, Nevada. Hello,
Big Balls Bob.
Speaker 7 (31:53):

other pay I'm okay with being inc This is big
balls Bob, and it's big balls Bob world.
Speaker 7 (32:07):
Yeah. Right. Does this mean that they're not going to
make the playoffs?
Speaker 1 (32:11):
Playoffs? Playoffs?
Speaker 2 (32:13):
No? Actually, North Carolina is tanking for the number one pick.
Somebody has to explain to Belichick there is no number
one pick in college football.
Speaker 7 (32:21):
To kind of watching the game was kind of like
watching a Bears game when they had sexy Rex Grossman
and Jake Cutler and it was just like agony.
Speaker 2 (32:32):
It was pure, pure agony there. It was a disaster. Yeah,
it was not good.
Speaker 1 (32:38):
They didn't have sexy Wrexy. They don't even coach the Bears.
What are you talking about?
Speaker 7 (32:41):
No? No, when he was a quarterback, good sexy.
Speaker 2 (32:44):
Rex Okay, Rex Roseman, the Great. I confused my sexy wrexies.
I thought you were talking about the guy with the
foot fetish. I thought you were talking.

my head and you can't stop saying it, you know.
I do like the word hutzba. I like that word.
Speaker 7 (33:37):
That's a good word, right, huts close to someone when
they say it.
