It's free. Enjoy the pod.

Speaker 2 (00:26):
But here in our number one, we're hearing that Eagles
coach Nick Sirianni and quarterback Jalen Hurst's relationship isn't a
great place in fact?

Speaker 1 (00:33):
That came from Jalen Hurst? Do you believe it? Also,
what did you make of.

Speaker 2 (00:38):
The now viral video of Panthers quarterback Bryce Young getting
absolutely cooked for walking into camp the way he did.
We'll talk about that. And Arizona Cardinals coach Jonathan Gannon
was unable to prove that momentum is real? How did
that story hit you? We'll go there and a whole

(01:01):
lot more. Right now, it's our number one on this Thursday,
and here it.

Speaker 1 (01:06):
Is displaying that brotherly love.

Speaker 2 (01:11):
Welcome in the beginning of.

Speaker 1 (01:15):
Another night of the Ben Malor Show.

Speaker 2 (01:18):
We are in the air everywhere, old friends.

Speaker 1 (01:24):
As we say, try it, you'll like it.

Speaker 2 (01:26):
We're here all night, coast to coast, border the border
and beyond on the vast and irresistibly powerful microphones of
fsre ammating live from the wave. I hope you're ready
the title wave of hot takes. We're broadcasting live from

the poke pokey guy. I think he spent about ten

(02:08):
grand on a la getaway at the Universal, so.

Speaker 1 (02:12):
He was having a grand time.

Speaker 2 (02:13):
Anyway, our lead this hour from the NFC East. It
is not about the Dallas colvi Hes probably thought it
was not, but that is where the Eagles ran out
of gas in twenty twenty three. Were talked about this
in a previous episode of the show, The Life and
Times of One Jalen Hurts, and the fact that Sequon Barkley,

(02:36):
the big pick up for the Birds, came out and
gave a ringing endorsement, a full throated endorsement of his quarterback.

Speaker 1 (02:45):
That's my quarterback. Now.

Speaker 2 (02:46):
As a result of the Eagles having issues, they whacked
a bunch of coaches, but not the head coach. Nick
Sirianni survived the insurrection in Philadelphia. But the rock Key
Road was there and continues to be there. And if
you haven't heard the latest on this, and maybe not
as training camps get going around the United States. Here

(03:08):
Jalen Hurts, the man in the middle. Jalen Hurts said
at the start of training camp that his relationship with
Nick Sirianni is in a quote great place.

Speaker 1 (03:21):
Quotes quote and quote continues that he has.

Speaker 2 (03:25):
Faith that he's the right person to lead the Birds
talking about his coach. So let us discuss the question.
Jalen Hurts, the quarterback of the Eagles, singing the praises
of Eagles coach Nick Sirianni and their relationship in.

Speaker 1 (03:39):
A great place. Do you believe it?

Speaker 2 (03:44):
So I've got elementary school, Disneyland, and manure, and we'll
combine all of these things together and we are going
to await your appetite with more hot takes. All right,
So a this is a misleading statement. It's misleading. That
is by word misleading because you take it with a

(04:07):
grain of salt. Here's why, what did you expect Jalen
Hurst to say? Could you imagine if Jalen had come
out and said, oh, yeah, Nick Siriani, I mean, he
can't even follow a recipe to make dinner, how's he
gonna coach an NFL team? This was a stark answer.
All right, Now, let's see how it plays out. The
real test is in September, and it's kind of like

(04:28):
elementary school. I was a terrible student. I barely got
out of school. But you start out the first day
of school, the teachers all seem kind of cool. You
don't have a lot of work to do. The first day,
it's kind of get to know you. Everyone's getting along.
And then as the days pile up, you figure out
if this is actually a really good situation or if

(04:50):
it was all a mirage. When you start getting the
homework and when the Eagles start losing games, and they
will lose games, what happens then, So until proven otherwise,
the Eagles with coach Nick Sirianni and quarterback Jalen Hurts
both are to be determined, right they're show ponies. They're
front running show ponies who don't handle adversity particularly well.

(05:15):
Now Nick Siriana's going around, he's inciting fans when the
Eagles are winning, and when they're losing, he looks completely
clueless and has no idea how to stop it. That
part of the story is and open and shutcase. Now
page two, we head to the Carolinas by demand, by
demand the video which so many of you, when I
say so many, like four four people wanted me to

(05:37):
talk about. So the Panthers not a good team, in fact,
the worst team in the NFL last two years. The
veteran players reported to training camp this week, as they
did everywhere else, and that led to the standard cliche
social media posts of name brand players strutting into the
team headquarters. I don't know why anyone likes this, but

(05:58):
they seem to enjoy it.

Speaker 1 (06:00):
It's a staple of this time of the year.

Speaker 2 (06:01):
And now the video of Bryce Young went viral, guarded
a lot of attention, a lot of attention more than
the rest. Now, what did you make of the Panther
quarterback Bryce Young getting absolutely cooked for a video of
him walking into camp?

Speaker 1 (06:21):
So my first thought is on this.

Speaker 2 (06:23):
It was expected, it was expected, and the video it's
hard to fight back with the video. I mean, the
video is pretty emasculating. Social media is going to do
what social media is gonna do. But to be fair,
the whole thing looked like a comic strip of him
walking in like the quarterback. It's supposed to be a
quarterback of an NFL team, big burly guy. We know

(06:44):
he's not, but he walks into the team facilities wearing
a comically large backpack, like way too big. He's probably
a grown up backpack and not a kid backpack, and
it was strapped over his show. He's very cartoonish and
now he's not as annoying Bryce Young as Kyler Murray
alligator arms at Arizona. However, he did fall out of

(07:06):
the same kind of a spider web with the itsy
Bitsy spider.

Speaker 1 (07:11):
He's very diminutive, not out of central casting.

Speaker 2 (07:14):
And unless you work at Disneyland, then these guys are great.
In the NFL, not so much, right, Historically these type
of quarterbacks have not done very well, the smaller quarterback,
but at Disneyland.

Speaker 1 (07:26):
It's a small world, after all.

Speaker 2 (07:27):
It's a small small world now as always, all that
matters with all of these stories is wins and losses,
wins in blankety blank losses.

Speaker 1 (07:36):
And if Bryce Young actually looks.

Speaker 2 (07:38):
Like he knows what he's doing, which he didn't last
year as a rookie, and he comes out and plays well,
hits the ground running all that, then he will be
celebrated and they'll romanticize his pocket sized appearance. And then
if he flops, strike up the band. We know how
that's going to go. Now I mentioned alligator arms, Kyler Murray.

(07:59):
We now had the last word. We head to Arizona.
Now we don't normally talk about the Cardinals other than
to bash Kyler Murray. But this is not This is
not going to be a bash of Kyler Murray. It's
not because instead the content machine has been filled by
Jonathan Gannon. You might not know who that is. Why
would you. He's not a name that people would know.

(08:21):
A casual person would not know. He's the coach of
the Cardinals.

Speaker 1 (08:24):
Not for long.

Speaker 2 (08:25):
That's always a temp job. You don't last that long
when you're coaching the Cardinals. It's kind of a starter job.
You get that job and then if you do good,
you go somewhere else. If you do bad, you become
the offensive coordinator of the Washington Commanders. It's kind of
how that goes. But many players in Arizona have had
checkered pass But Jonathan Gannon actually looked like he knew

(08:45):
a little bit of what he was doing last year. Now,
the reason I bring his name up here is because
the Cardinals coach Jonathan Gannon revealed this week that he
and several members of the coaching staff did a deep dive.
They went deep into the weeds investigating momentum during the

(09:07):
off season. Now, coach claimed that they went all the
way back to studying wars in the eighteen hundreds. Tell
me you don't have a life without telling me you
don't have a life. Now, after all of that research, right,
all of that research going down Wikipedia holes and all that,
does momentum exist? Gannon said, quote perhaps I have no

(09:31):
idea close quote. So, Cardinals coach Jonathan Gannon unable unable
to prove momentum, Unable to prove momentum is real. How
did this story hit you? Well, it hit me like, hey,
mister stupid over there, what are you doing? Could have

(09:52):
saved him some time? Downloaded this podcast, this radio show
for years, for years, have been behind these very powerful
microphones at Fox Sports Radio, preaching from the bully pulpit.
Momentum is manure in sports. It is period stop right.

(10:13):
I didn't need to go back to the eighteen hundreds.
And I don't believe he actually went back to the
eighteen hundreds. He probably clicked on like one Wikipedia page
and it's been twenty five hours over several weeks, going
through momentum.

Speaker 1 (10:26):
I don't believe that. But he's embellishing.

Speaker 2 (10:29):
But here's the thing, right, there is no way to
quantify momentum. You can't see it, you can't touch it,
you can't buy it, you can't sell it. It doesn't
exist in sports. Nobody can predict. Here's the thing that
dead do, what dead give what? Nobody can predict. One
momentum is going to keep the team doing well, right,

(10:51):
keep the team going they've got momentum. Or when it
shifts away from the team and the other team does better,
why would that happen? Because it doesn't exist. It is
merely something that scribes latched onto in the heyday of
newspapers and baseball report is mainly but momentum is an
after the fact explanation for the outcome of a game.

(11:12):
It is ignored when the team that has all the
momentum goes out there and loses. It's that motivational speaker
type stuff. It's pseudo science type content. Is what it is.

Speaker 1 (11:25):
Momentum. But yet here we are.

Speaker 2 (11:27):
An NFL head coach going down that rabbit hole, although
I don't think he went all the way down. Jonathan Gannon,
who could not prove momentum, could not prove because you
can't prove it. There's no way to prove it in sports.
It doesn't exist in sports. All right, is the Ben
Malor Show. If you would like to be part, you

Speaker 1 (15:36):
These things are legendary.

Speaker 2 (15:37):
The one we did in southern California there was an
all night party.

Speaker 1 (15:41):
It was at a hotel.

Speaker 2 (15:42):
There was a restaurant associated with a hotel, and from
what I heard, the party lasted into the wee hours.

Speaker 1 (15:49):
Of the morning.

Speaker 2 (15:50):
The Midnight Walker writes in from New York. He says
Nick Sirianni and Jalen Hurts are having a love fest.
Jalen Hurts contends that Iriani is just the best. Let's
wait till the Eagles lose a few games. It's just
around the bend, and when the ship be sinking, that is.

Speaker 1 (16:09):
When the love fest ends. Yeah, you're not kidding.

Speaker 2 (16:14):
Shane from des Moin writes and he says, alf has
the social media Benny locked down right now, cut that
alien his check. Well, Alf is on the payroll, and
that's just the reality. We payment pickles. That's a fun thing.
We payment pickles. We don't have to pay them the money.

Speaker 1 (16:31):
None of us, none of us like pickles, so we
just send alf the You know, I love pickles. Pickles. Yeah,
I'm not looking at it. It's terrible now, slimy, disgusting. Anyway, Yeah,

(17:01):
thank you.

Speaker 2 (17:02):
Shane Yaphoemi is with us on the live show tonight,
he says in Chicago, he says, Mallard a plus and
a Casey's Gas Station pizza. On the monologue, little Bryce
look like he was on the first day of school.
Big thanks to David Tepper for handing the first pick
to du Bears. Yeah, that was tremendous leadership by the

(17:25):
Carolina football team.

Speaker 1 (17:27):
Outstanding.

Speaker 2 (17:29):
Yes, HL, who is a momentum Truther, says, you can
say the same thing about love and gravity, Ben, but
we both know that they exist. Why don't gravity exist?
I don't know about love, I mean maybe it does.
Momentum in sports is a psychological plus. HL says that

(17:50):
if a team or just one person believes they have it,
then it exists, but who knows for how.

Speaker 1 (17:55):
Long it doesn't exist. Hl, I know you grew up
with this. I understand. I get it.

Speaker 2 (18:00):
You don't want to push back on something you learned
when you were younger. But it doesn't exist in sports.

Speaker 1 (18:06):
It doesn't.

Speaker 2 (18:07):
I snowball down the hill that exists right, collecting more snow.

Speaker 1 (18:12):
That is reality.

Speaker 2 (18:14):
Chris and de Woye says, why does Joe Burrow look
like a bad guy in an Indiana Jones movie? Yeah,
he needs glasses, got to complete the look there. That's
easier maintenance. So that hair is much easier maintenance, So
he'll cut down on the time that he needs to
worry about.

Speaker 3 (18:30):
That.

Speaker 2 (18:30):
Doesn't Burrow go to bed at like eight o'clock at night?
Didn't we learn that a couple of years ago that
Joe Burrow goes to bed at a ridiculous early time.
Yea Eugene in Chicago says, Ben the NBA tells TNT. No,
the NBA basically thinks streaming is the future, not cable,
So no to U TNT. We'll talk more about that later.

(18:51):
I don't well, I guess I kind of have some
skin in the game. NBC got a bunch of the
NBA rights, so I have done some work in the
past for them. So uh yeah, I mean I'm gonna
I'm gonna miss inside the NBA.

Speaker 1 (19:03):
Who's not.

Speaker 2 (19:03):
I mean, I would rather watch that than most of
the regular season games. But Adam Silver said, screw you.
We don't want any part of TNT. We want to
hang out in the Amazon. The diamond Man Wright says,
this Happy Clayton Kershaw Day to all who celebrate and
to honor him. Malard gets twenty two per each Mallard monologue.

Speaker 1 (19:24):
Tonight, well thank you.

Speaker 2 (19:26):
Yeah, Clayton Kershaw back to dominate the regular season, and
then when the playoffs start, he will urinate down his leg.
Maybe he'll even vomit. Maybe he'll even vomit. Speaking of
speaking of vomit, the romit comet. We go to philadel
fi Egals camp. We talked about Jalen Hurts and Nick Siriati.
It is a staple of this time of the year

(19:48):
as well. A former New York Jet first round pick,
Mackai Beckton, big burly man, Mackay Beckden. Yeah, so he's
in Philly now. He's one of the offensive lineman for
the Eagles, and we're being told that the first Eagle
practice did not go so well at camp on.

Speaker 1 (20:10):
A very steamy day, the.

Speaker 2 (20:13):
Kind of day where you can take a breath and
actually bite into the air. If you say, the humidity,
you know that? Man, that's one thing. I'm happy and
we're living on the West Coast. I don't have to
deal with humidity too much. But anytime I go visit
you people on the East Coast, my god, what a frickin'
nightmare the humidity is. Anyway, this guy Becton Makai Beckman,

(20:33):
he won a prize he was the first Eagles player
to puke at training camp. But not only that, the
Philly Voice tells us whatever that is that he threw
up ten times? Ten heaves from Mackay Beckton. Yeah, now,

(20:55):
is that that's that's got to be like water, right,
That's not if you throw ten times, you need to go.

Speaker 6 (21:01):
I wouldn't say by the time you get to four
or five, there's it's nothing.

Speaker 1 (21:05):
It's three is bile?

Speaker 6 (21:06):
The dry heaves there bile?

Speaker 1 (21:08):
Yeah, when's the last time you barf? I haven't barfed
in a long time.

Speaker 6 (21:11):
It's been a while for me as well.

Speaker 1 (21:13):
Yeah, oh really that long?

Speaker 2 (21:17):
I almost had to call out a couple of months
ago because I got sick.

Speaker 1 (21:20):
Yeah, last time you had a pickle you probably threw up.

Speaker 6 (21:22):
That would have made me barf.

Speaker 2 (21:24):
Yeah, exactly, Coop, last time you threw up? When was it, Coop,
last barf session?

Speaker 1 (21:32):
I don't know, it's been a while. I try to
avoid barfing at all costs. Well, yeah, obviously. Yeah, everyone,
it's that simple. Yeah.

Speaker 5 (21:41):
Some people are just like, oh, I'm just gonna do
it because I'm gonna feel better afterwards, and that might
be true, but I'm just I'm still gonna avoid it.

Speaker 1 (21:46):
I hate I hate it. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (21:48):
My wife's she says that, oh, yeah, I throw up,
but it's not you know, I do that all she's
I it's just part of who I am.

Speaker 1 (21:53):
I don't throw up. I don't. I don't want to
feel bad.

Speaker 7 (21:56):
I don't.

Speaker 1 (21:56):
Sometimes I've even stopped myself from throwing up.

Speaker 2 (21:59):
You know how you kind of get some in the
back of your throat like you're gonna barf, and then
you stop it. You use your internal strength to hold
it and bring the barf back down into your guts.
All right, I've done you.

Speaker 1 (22:09):
I had a girl on the school bus in elementary school.
Try to teach me how to swallow that.

Speaker 6 (22:12):
Yeah, well there's a drop.

Speaker 1 (22:16):
We have saw so many.

Speaker 2 (22:18):
Yeah, there are a lot of potential drops. But potential
is not real either. So anyway, all right, don't get
me started on that as well. Matt the Warrior Raider
fan writes in He's part of the wrong side of history,
the pro pickle people. He says, I knew that Loraina
was good people, and then he praises pickles. A saw
man in Mississippi says, finally a voice of reason on

(22:40):
the Mallor Show, fried dill pickles, get the ranch delicacy.

Speaker 1 (22:46):
Yes, Oh my gosh, these are my people.

Speaker 2 (22:48):
So I'm so disappointed. I came into work today. Come on,
saw man, what's wrong with you people? You guys in Mississippi?
I thought you ate good Southern food, fried pickles with
ranch dressing, a delicate See's let's combine two of the
worst things that that Americans eat and we'll put them together.

Speaker 1 (23:05):
Why don't we do that? What's wrong with you man?
All right? Anyway, it is the Ben Mahlor Show.

Speaker 2 (23:12):
As we roll on, we'll take some of these amazing
phone calls that are lined up.

Speaker 1 (23:17):
We'll get to that.

Speaker 2 (23:18):
In NFLGM talking about idiots. He wants you to know
all about idiots. We'll get to that, but right now,
let's get over to the sports newsroom and we.

Speaker 1 (23:30):
Say hello too. Games of note garci yah.

Speaker 6 (23:36):
Yes, that's right. And a man who is standing arm
in arm in solidarity with Ben Maller on his stance
on pickles. We don't do that.

Speaker 1 (23:42):
All COmON ground. We have common rinds.

Speaker 6 (23:44):
We don't do this often, but we are in one
hundred percent agreement on.

Speaker 1 (23:47):
We're in lockstep on this.

Speaker 6 (23:48):
Yeah, we'll start with news from the NFL. Training camps
are underway and different strategies with different people looking for contracts.
You got those saying I'm not showing up. The holdouters
that would be include Dallas Cowboys star wide receiver CD
lamb It did not report the training camp, as was reported.
Hassan Radick, linebacker the Jets. Also forty nine Ers offensive

(24:08):
tacklelled Trent Williams. Apparently those guys don't care about being
fined or they feel like that'll be swept under the
rug once they signed. Meanwhile, there are the hold inders
that would be the guys who have reported the camp
but are not full participants.

Speaker 1 (24:20):
Slow down strike it. Yeah, we determined that the slow
down strike.

Speaker 6 (24:23):
Packers quarterback Jordan Love, Dolphins quarterback to a tongue by
Low and forty nineerreds wide receiver. They do not want
to get fined.

Speaker 2 (24:30):
What would be like us showing up to work and say, well,
I'm only gonna do one update an hour, I'll do
one monologue. I'll take the next hour off. You know
that kind of thing. Yeah, that's the equivalent of that
a sit in.

Speaker 6 (24:40):
Yeah, interesting that that they can get away with that,
but apparently they can't.

Speaker 1 (24:43):
How would management handle that us?

Speaker 6 (24:45):
You know, I'm fire ar ass immediately, I would say,
which is what should happen?

Speaker 1 (24:49):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (24:49):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Meller
Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific.

Speaker 2 (24:55):
Let's have some fun here we go, five five five fun.
And I met to that Yankee Mets game game started
by the man with the richest contract ever handed to
a starting pitcher, Garrett Cole. Garrett Cole's kryptonite is the Metropolitans.
What is my evidence on that he has made two
starts this year against the Mets and he sees mister

(25:18):
met and he's a nightmares Garrett Cole finishes the year
with an ERA of over eleven against the Mets, and
he allowed in his two starts not one, not two,
not three, not four, not five, not six? How about
seven home runs to the Mets.

Speaker 1 (25:35):
Seven? Wow, that is my fun fact.

Speaker 2 (25:38):
So Garrett Cole two starts against the Mets, the Yankees lose,
I believe both games, and Cole finished with an ERA
of over eleven and allowed seven home runs in those
two starts. Now, I didn't play in the major leagues,
but I don't think that's particularly good.

Speaker 1 (25:56):
I don't anyway, Let's go to the phones.

Speaker 2 (25:58):
We'll say hello to Jed who fled, Who's somewhere in
the swamp lands of Florida.

Speaker 1 (26:04):
Hello, Jed who fled?

Speaker 7 (26:06):
My sister and I are kind of having a little
bit of a family tip right now, and we have
a family get together at my mom and dad the
every Tuesday night. And she got there, lady, and I
didn't realize that she's going to make some sort comment
about them, you know, the baked potato I was eating
after you out there, and she don't realize that close
I want the inducing myself into vomiting on the hood
of her car thinking about vomiting. I mean, she wants to.

Speaker 1 (26:23):
Start that it was wrong, what was wrong with the
baked potato.

Speaker 7 (26:27):
She didn't want be eating it, and she wanted to
make a comment about it after a scheck. I got
that right now, and this is why, this is why
her son's in the hostel. And know what I'm saying.
I was like, we've got bigger fishy from that's all.
I mean, I probably deserve some of the things. And
when you started arguing with me, I mean, don't don't
bring it to like the level five if you don't
think you can handle level five got insults back to
your wife as the manipual looked at adgive person, what

(26:48):
verse in that you? I mean she was trying to
get up on me, like on my person and be
like that's crazy, that's taking it your stupid you know,
a quiet and everything and want me to react like
what are you doing. I'm like, I've been I've seen it,
saying all my wife's and you're not gonna that's not
gonna happen. Find to work on me, like I know
pastoral dress when I see it. But it was something
almost made me through over the day. I was gonna
start the listening fronds on this very show to try

(27:08):
to get out to Vegas. But when my probation officer
knocked on my my daughter the month of verification, the
very you know, the resident's verification. It was an old
probation officer replaced me as the one I thought, I
you know, had been not coasting them with but you know,
been talking, you know, like you like that about sports
or what not. Things were okay, and I had good news.
It's the person, the lady who violated the last time
I servation was violated. It's her. I'm going back to

(27:30):
her now. And so I'm a little gun shop I
maybe taking the trip out to Vegas.

Speaker 2 (27:35):
Question question for the back of the room. How long
are you on probation for?

Speaker 7 (27:42):
In fact, I got early term, I did the early
term next year, but you know, I mean I got
took fore. I got a lot of restitution to handle
in that term and that during that duration, so probably
more like close of the twenty twenty seven.

Speaker 1 (27:51):
So you stole a lot of stuff.

Speaker 7 (27:53):
Know that the Department of Justice, as you know, as
they'll do it to a certain even even you're very
very prominent figures in they'll overcharge you and scare the
crap out of you. And I didn't think. I told
my people. I was like, look there, they're gonna change
on the day if it was a jury selection day
when I when I went and they were they.

Speaker 8 (28:10):
Came down with, oh well let me get edunication with her.

Speaker 7 (28:12):
And if you suggest to give you, you know, your probation,
it's hard out to take that. And then they like
to hit you with like the bait and Switzerland. But
you got you know, you got touch just thousand dollars
of restitution. It's like the Friday saying like damn, but
it's you know, I don't want to convict the telling
thing on my status, I believe it or not. I
have been able to avoid all this time. Earlier in
the show, dude, you said tell me, you show me,

(28:34):
tell me you don't have a life without telling me,
without telling me I have a life. And I want
to be like I wait on a hold a lot
and taking it in the callers to the show or
listen of the show, enjoy my police, dude, I think
that might be what it is. Yeah, okay, Eddie, Eddie,
and you.

Speaker 1 (28:47):
No enough, you're not done. You wait, but wait, there's more.
But wait, there's more from jed Hu.

Speaker 7 (28:52):
Fled you and Edie one Annix some sort of company
or some sort of country the other night. Dude, I
need a good strong United States dollar's praying and then
I'm not able to do. George that the way I'm
gonna all.

Speaker 2 (29:10):
Right, Yes, we want we want to add more states.
I know, all right, thank you? All right, there he's
finally done. Art Puffin says, uh, the evil pickle Queen
of hearts, Lorena.

Speaker 6 (29:25):
She's earned that.

Speaker 1 (29:27):
Yeah, right there, there's there's Eddie's pink pickle.

Speaker 2 (29:31):
Eloy writes. In from Compton, he says, here's your favorite.
Eddie is a pickle dill pickle moon pie. The salsa
Danny writes, and he says, in Texas fried pickles with
ranch dressing, thumbs up. Now, heck, yeah, sounds like a
grand Take it to Texas. And let me tell you something.
That text Mex sucks. Text Mes is terrible. It is horrible.

Speaker 1 (29:56):
No I do mean it.

Speaker 2 (29:57):
No, it's it's a blasphemy text disgusting, disgusting, disgusting, disgusting.
Matthew Warrior Raider fan writes, and he says, flashback to
when I lost a twenty two year vomit streak. The
current vomit streak is only since January fifteenth, twenty twenty two,
when I was battling a nasty stomach flu the morning

(30:18):
the Raiders lost to the ben Gals in the AFC
Wild Card. Oh yeah, I remember that. That was a Derek
Carr game. And yeah, twenty two years without vomiting. That's
a pretty good run, right, that's a solid run. Let's
say hello to Andre, who is in the Commonwealth, and
will this be the night that we hear from his dog?

Speaker 3 (30:41):
There? He is?

Speaker 1 (30:43):
There, he is, there's Andre.

Speaker 8 (30:45):
Yes, indeed again, there's not gonna be an appearance from
Willis Man.

Speaker 1 (30:52):
Come on, Willis killing me? Willis, You're killing me? Willis
et set to go.

Speaker 8 (30:57):
We went out actually had a men's league game, you
know what I mean. So, uh, I got to do
the rest ice compression and elevation that I'm not as
young as I used to, you know what I mean. So,
but in normal nights we would get out for like,
you know, I kick him out before you know, you know,
I call into the show. But then we go for
like a walk and then he's good time.

Speaker 1 (31:17):
You're making you're making excuses. The dog's either there, the
dog's not there. The dog is not there, so we
move on.

Speaker 2 (31:23):
The conspiracy continues that Andre does not have an actual dog,
it's a stuffed animal dog. Until we hear that dog,
people will have questions the deep state.

Speaker 1 (31:35):
Andre will wonder what's going on?

Speaker 8 (31:38):
Okay, And in response to said conspiracy theories, I will
allow them to be perpetuated. But I said, he's a Malano,
He's got the high i Q. He's a police dog,
you know K nine, you know, war dog. So we're
going into training emly for him to regard the training immediately,
for him to be able to bark on command, which
he doesn't know now, but he will be able to
learn soon, so that we can get of some of

(32:01):
the speculations. I would come on air. I would be
how could I be a part of the Malar militia
if I'm telling Tall Dales, Okay.

Speaker 7 (32:08):
It's that's right.

Speaker 2 (32:09):
We are truth tellers on this show, absolutely truth tellers.

Speaker 8 (32:12):
Except that Okay, yeah, it takes the entire honor and
the entire preceige, everything that I've worked for that I
would get to this point of being a private and
then I would just throw it all the way and
squander it. So we're going into training on that. But
back to the world of sports. You're talking about the Eagles,
Nick Sarianni Jalen Hurts. Listen, I think the biggest threat
to the Philadelphia Eagles this year, and I'm gonna say

(32:34):
it is the Dallas Cowboys and if they can finally
get their dog one act together. I think Dak Prescott's
gonna have a resurgent year because why he's going through
the contract situation. They botched it once again. They should
have paid Dak early the first time. They're gonna wait again.
He's gonna end up getting all his money at the
end of the day, but the disrespected having to go

(32:54):
through the process. I think Dak's gonna be on his
p's and q's. I think Ceedee Lam's gonna be in
on his p's and q's as well. Philadelphia Eagles, they
had the one good year and they had to sophomore
slump last year. Being from the great state of New Jersey,
that's where I was born, I have the respect for Philadelphia,
but I think they got to get it together and
get back to the top of the NFT East or
they're gonna be a flash japant I E you know

(33:17):
what I mean. I don't want them to be a no.

Speaker 1 (33:19):
But here's the problem to listen.

Speaker 2 (33:20):
I you know that you crafted to take your craftsman
with the take Andre, But the problem with that is
it's a suckers game. Believing in the Dallas Cowboys and
I don't doubt that Dak Prescott during the regular season
against subpar opponents will be great. But the ultimate test
is in the playoffs. The only playoff game where Dak
Prescott has been great was against the sub five hundred
Tampa Bay team that ran out of gas and had

(33:43):
a like seventy year old Tom Brady playing quarterback on
the other side.

Speaker 1 (33:46):
That's it. Other than that, he has sucked in every
big game.

Speaker 2 (33:49):
He's had garbage time stats in the second half of
some games, like last year or this past year against
the Packers, He's terrible in the first half, gave the
game away, the game was over at halftime, and then
the second half in the fourth quarter, good stats, look good, solid,
all that all right. I gotta leave it there on
dere but thank you, uh hopefully we'll we'll hear from
before Willis moves up to the Pearly Gates and Doggie Heaven. Yeah,

(34:13):
where's where's our our friend in the big cowboy fan
Cowboy Dan?

Speaker 1 (34:18):
Well, I guess we'll have to wait for the first
week of the year. Hey is Cowboy Dan? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (34:22):
Yeah, Brandon Bean, who you know that is? That is
the GM of Andy the Comic Book Guy, and Bill's
Monster and Felexus's Buffalo Bills. So Brandon Bean was asked
about an anonymous NFL executive calling Josh Allen overrated? Over right,
and so what did Brandon Bean say? He said, quote,

(34:45):
there are idiots everywhere, is what he said. They are
idiots everywhere, including in the front office of NFL teams.

Speaker 1 (34:56):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (34:57):
Now, when you say anonymous NFL executive, it could have
been Brandon Mean, it could have.

Speaker 1 (35:02):
Been the GM of the Buffalo Bills. Now.

Speaker 2 (35:05):
I love the word overrated. I don't use it enough.
But the word overrated does not mean bad. It just
means not as good as people think you are. And
that would be a proper analysis of Josh Allen. Right,
He's good, but not as good as people think he is.
Therefore he is overrated. I don't think that's a wrong
position to have.

Speaker 1 (35:23):
We will have the who am I?

Speaker 3 (35:24):
Game?

Speaker 1 (35:25):
Right now here we go. Let's go to who am I? Game?

figure out who I am? Let's see? Does anyone know
the answer?

Speaker 2 (37:02):
Cowboy Killer going with the Hamburglar as his answer, Donkey
Sausage going with JJ Blee Day.

Speaker 1 (37:13):
I think I don't know who that is. Who else

Speaker 2 (37:15):
Chomper guessed by Ferg Dog, the Vlassic pickle stock from
Milkman Mike in Colorado, Jose Uribe giant legend from the
eighties from mister nice Guy. That's his answer, Charles Sennaselfie,
Thank you, Charles. Who else we have? Matthew Warrior Raider,

Tom Brady roast fan cheated just like when he eats pickles.
Late Night Drug Tester says, you are Bryce Young, who
is twenty three today? Who else do we have? He sapped?
CHOI from Eke in Roseville, Minnesota. Page down. Milkman Mike
says it is a Lorraineaus favorite liquor store. That would
be the Pickle Liquors is the answer. Joe Injury from

(38:00):
the King Rory page down. Shane from the Mooyes says
Iowa state coach Matt Campbell, although he misspelled the name.
Bad job by you, Yaphimi, says Andre in the Commonweals.
Fake Dog Robin Minnesota says Disco. Danny ford Elloy from
Compton says Dirk Diggler.

Speaker 1 (38:21):

Tim Flannery guests by Double O Mexican in San Diego.
George Orda from James Mike in Dodge going with Bobby
Witt Junior of his Kansas City Royals. Eddie, do you
have an answer? It's not mister Padre. Tony Gwyn guests
by Patrick D. J.

Speaker 1 (38:42):
Spin.

Speaker 6 (38:43):
I feel strongly that it's former Texas Rangers All star
third baseman Hank Blaylock.

Speaker 2 (38:48):
It's a great name, Eddie. See you're back. I had
to punish you yesterday and used Larina, but now you're
back at hey.

Speaker 1 (38:53):
Good drop by you. That's a terrible answer. We love that.

Speaker 2 (38:55):
The correct answer the shortstop of the New York Metropolitans,
Francisco Lindon.

Speaker 1 (39:04):
That's great. A lot of stats, and the Mets have

Speaker 2 (39:07):
Been lousy, lousy, a lot of home runs, a lot
of steels, lousy baseball.
