Ding dong. It's our number two, our number two. How
new you knew in.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
Our number two?
Speaker 1 (00:10):
So the Thursday night NFL game, Upset City, what even close?
Eagles shutout in the second half, Giants win going away.
It's a laugher for the New York Giants over the
supposed to the champion team in the NFL. So what's
the temperature in the Eagle locker room around Jalen Hurts
after that stinker? Also, is the hype warranted for Jackson
(00:32):
Dart and Cam Skataboo, the young players for the Giants?
They are the toast of New York now after that
game in Jersey last night, So we will discuss that. Also,
do you feel the agony of fans calling for the
tush push ban after the Eagles ran it four times
in a row in the second quarter? And what does
the tush push mean in the big picture for Jalen
(00:56):
Hurts of the Eagles. All that and more right now
we serve it up piping hot on this Friday. It's
our number two. Fly Eagles fly right into the ground.
Welcome in the beginning of another hour of the Ben
Mahlor Show. We are in the air everywhere incoats as
(01:23):
we stay away from mental disineration. Coast to coast, border
to border in beyond on the mass and splashly powerful
microphones of fs.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
Are am monating live.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
From the Goose the Wild Goose Chase, that is overnight
talk radio from the world famous Fox Sports Radio studios,
as approved by the Crazy Crab. That's right. This portion
of the Ben Malor Show on Fox made possible in
part by our friends at ti Iraq. For over forty years,
ti Iraq has been helping customers like nice Guy and
(02:01):
Jonathan in Delaware find the right tires for how, what
and where they drive. Mister Irrigation says, that's cool, ship
fast and free back by free road hazard protection with
convenient installation options like mobile tire installation tire rack dot
com the way that tire buying should be. So we
(02:22):
discussed the wacky wacky world of Major League Baseball last hour.
The Dodgers victorious and the Chicago Cubs victorious as well.
So they both have advanced well, the Dodgers advanced, the
Cubs advanced to a game five on Saturday in baseball.
But while those things were going on, mostly the Cub
(02:44):
Brewer game, we had We had ash in the NFL
a Thursday Night special. Al Michaels was there, Kirk Herbstreet, Herbie.
They had to call in the Amazon as they were
calling that game. And that's going to lead this hour
from New Jersey the reigning Super Bowl champion Eagles traveling party.
They went up I ninety five to take on the Giants.
(03:06):
I don't know if you were watching, maybe you're watching
the baseball or not. The theme of the night with
was youth be served as rookie Cam Scataboo running wild,
running and stumbling for not one, not two, but three
three touchdowns and fellow rookie quarterback Jackson Dart had one
rushing score and another passing. The New York Giants Wake
(03:30):
up the Echoes. The Giants beat the Eagles thirty four
seventeen to the final in the Thursday Night game. And
so with that, it was less than a week ago
that the Eagles had not lost the game in forever,
and now they've lost two games in just a few days.
The Broncos got them, and now the Giants knocked them
(03:50):
down a couple more pegs here. The better story is
in that losing locker room. So let us discuss the question,
what is the temperature. Let's do a temperature check. What
is the temperature in the Eagles locker room around Jalen
hurts at this point.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
So my observations on this.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
I've got Smorgasborg, Smuckers and Tony Stark, and we will
combine all of these things together, all of them, and
we're gonna play doctor Jekyl mister Hyde, because Philadelphia in
many ways is a doctor Jekyl mister Hyde operation of
the football team. And put all this together, and we're
(04:30):
gonna make your Babushka's favorite choked cheese steak. Now, the
Phillies ate the choke cheese steak in many ways. The
Eagles did as well. But Number I said number one,
all right, So if the Eagles locker room temperature is
a gauge, it's redlining right now. It's redlining. It's a
(04:51):
tender box. It is what's in the box. It's a
tinder box. At this point, less than a week ago,
the Eagles were sitting pretty as a We're not winning
by a lot, but we're winning and that's all that matters.
And I did a monologue say there's some some issues
there in Philadelphia, and of course immediately got the blowback.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
You just though, that's why you're doing overnight, Fatty.
Speaker 1 (05:13):
I love that so much. It's so good, and so
I get that kind of feedback. And here we are
ten days later. The Eagles have now lost twice, and
so they were one of the last unbeaten.
Speaker 2 (05:25):
Teams in the NFL.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
But now the trap door has opened up and they've
fallen into a Pitavanaconda's.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
At this point here, things are not going particularly well.
Speaker 1 (05:34):
The Eagles scored as many points in the second half
as the Fox Sports radio football team. Yes, bupkiss, Let's
hear from Jalen Hurts, the Eagles quarterback, on what exactly
were you doing in the second half? Take a listen.
Speaker 3 (05:50):
That's a third straight game.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
You guys didn't score second half point?
Speaker 4 (05:54):
What's going on?
Speaker 3 (05:54):
Half of the half?
Speaker 4 (05:56):
I gotta be better, Gotta be better. Take on the
shift for you know, a lot of a lot of
autonomy and a lot of opportunity there with the ball
in my hands and giving those situations, I have to
be a wiser and more detailed with it. So I
always looking in with first, you know, looking in with
(06:18):
on the things that I can control. And you know,
I see a lot of opportunity in this.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
Okay, Yes, you're at a fork in the road and
it's either you put the thing back on the tracks
here or that's it.
Speaker 5 (06:31):
Now.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
Shut out in the second half by a Giants defense
which came in ranked twenty second in scoring defense twenty
sixth in total defense, handed a game away last week
to the New Orleans Saints on offense with five turnovers,
and yet they made Jalen Hurts look like he was
trying to throw a medicine ball in the second and a half.
Now here's the part that should make Eagle fans have heartburn,
(06:55):
make them really, really nervous. You know this, if you're
a real Egle fan, cut you open and cheese steak
comes out.
Speaker 2 (07:03):
I'm talking.
Speaker 1 (07:04):
I'm not talking cheese whiz. I'm talking the cheese steak
with the pro boloan. They just call this steak sam
which in Philadelphia, that locker room has a smell.
Speaker 2 (07:13):
You know that smell.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
You smell that that's the oh, that's the oh smell. Yeah,
you've got divas to the right, divas to the left.
In the wide receiver room. You've got your quarterback with
an underthrow to the right, an overthrow to the left,
misreading the defense in the middle, AJ Brown giving everything
(07:35):
side eye on the sidelines, you've got DeVante Smith starting
to stare off into the void. And then they just
heard from Jalen Hurts. You know, mister Joe cool right
now and all that. You know, just gotta flush it away.
And but he does play like a guy who's pressing.
There was a lot of behind the scenes drama in
(07:56):
Philadelphia this week with reports of a me between kind
of a peace meeting between the quarterback and.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
The receivers, and they went at it.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
And so this is not the same group that walked
into stadiums last year and was a juggernaut. Not right now,
they're not. They look tight, they're detached. And it's not
always sunny in Philadelphia. That's false advertised always cloudy. It's
always cloudy there. And the Eagles have all the ingredients necessary,
all of them to cook up a Smorgsborg of disaster,
(08:30):
a total Smorgesborg of disaster. If you check the cabinets,
they've got the ingredients. You've got diva wide receivers, you've
got the disease of me with AJ Brown and Devonte
Smith saying they're not getting the ball enough. Javonte We
mentioned Jalen Hurts with the wild throws. Sequon Barkley, he
has been a cookie cutter running back. This year he
was a super nova. He's now a dime store running back.
(08:54):
The defense has regressed. It's a middle of the pack defense.
It's all the ticking time bomb and the chick rry
on top. You've got a head coach who's not exactly
a calming presence. Nick Sirianni, one of the great front
runners of our time. Does anyone disagree with that? When
things are going well, he's pounding his chest and running around,
(09:15):
you know, chest bumping him, naval gazing, all that stuff.
And when things aren't going well, uh, not so good.
Here's Nick Sirianni, the Eagles head coach, commenting on the
lack of offense.
Speaker 2 (09:28):
There was none in the second half for his.
Speaker 6 (09:30):
Team, obviously, you know anytime, you know, I think there
were some some good moments in the run game today.
Got ourselves behind the sticks a little bit in the
second half on some of some of some of the
runs there. So we'll we'll look at everything right there,
you know, we we know we we know we have
the guys up front to be able to do that. Obviously,
(09:52):
we gotta we got to do a good job putting
them in positions to succeed, and then we got to
go execute.
Speaker 1 (09:59):
Okay, I guess we had to cut off the word execute,
but that was a breach of etiquette. A breach of
etiquette there the way the Eagles were playing. And so
the second part is, let's go to the Giants. We'll
go back to the Eagles, but let's go to the
Giants right now. So the question on the Giants the
winning locker room, which is not as good as story.
The winning locker room is just not it's just not
as good a story as the losing locker room. But
we'll go there now. So the question is a lot
(10:21):
of lot of pumping the tires on the young players
for the Giants, right, A lot of pumping the tires
on this is so it is the hype warranted for
Jackson Dart and Cam Skataboo, the quarterback running back combination.
It is already over the top. So I thought they
(10:42):
both looked good. I don't know how you couldn't make
that statement that they both look good. But I would
pump the brakes on having a parade down the Canyon
of heroes for Jackson Dart and Camscataboo. Based on social
media only, these guys have now squared the circle. They
have absolutely scar the circle. I guess we'll forget about
(11:02):
the fact that they gave a game away to the
New Orleans Saints a few days ago, but.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
We'll just come on.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
So it's it's great. It's one night, one night only,
that's it. And yeah, on this night, we do this.
We do the talk show daily and so right now,
you know, each night. And they were Cam Scataboo and
Jackson Dart were smuckers, uncrustables, right, peanut butter and jelly,
perfectly packaged sweet in the middle, snack sized football heroes
(11:30):
they were. However, to say that this is now going
to be a thing is a classic overreaction. Right, you
sentence yourself to prison. You're now in the the jail cell,
prisoner of the moment. And Jackson Dart was out there
looking like a shaw Day, a smooth operator, throwing the
(11:51):
ball around and fired up. And it's very weird to
see the Giants with someone playing quarterback that looks like
they know what they're doing. Haven't had that in a
long time. And then you've got Cam Skataboo, who we
saw in college, became a cult hero in his college
days briefly and wasn't drafted very high. And he ran
through the Eagles defense like it was a kid running
(12:11):
through sprinklers out on a park somewhere in a hot
summer afternoon. And yeah, that was fun. I'm not a
Giants fan, but for those of you that do partake
in the Giants, it was loud, it was great, a
little razzle dazzle. When's the last time they had razzle dazzle?
And it was probably already know, I know, is the
peak the right word? I don't know if peaks the
(12:31):
right word, but this was like a revival tan. It
was like a religious experience for the Giant fans who've
been in a football coma, in a malaise for so
many years here. But I go back to the question
is is this permanent? Well, no, it's premature to say
that it's See. The problem is I actually kind of
(12:53):
liked these two guys. And what's gonna happen is the
New York overhype machine's gonna get it craked up, and
I'm gonn start hate both of them.
Speaker 2 (13:01):
I know this always happens.
Speaker 1 (13:04):
Right now, It's fun to watch camp scatterboy bump heads
and run through people and not care about his long
term health. And Jackson Dart looks really like an exciting
young quarterback. And yet I know I'm going to hate
them because this is what always happens with New York athletes.
You just get it shoved down your throat and you
(13:24):
begin to despise them. At least I do. Maybe you don't,
all right, final point, So I'll go back to the
Philadelphia side of things. One of the storylines in this game,
if you're watching it in the second quarter, fans were
spitting mad, spitting mad neutral fans because the Philadelphia Eagles
tush push took over the game.
Speaker 2 (13:44):
So during the second quarter, Philadelphia was in.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
The red zone and they needed a couple more yards
to reach the end zone. So not only did they
attempt the touch push, but they did it four times
in a row. Touch push, tush pushed bush bush, touch
buch touchy touchy touch. Hey, that's what they did, and
they did score. Jalen Hurts eventually scored. The reaction though
(14:08):
there was a visceral reaction to that second quarter stretch
where they ran the four Tousch pushes and.
Speaker 2 (14:15):
The repetition of it.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
People very upset, demanding it be outlawed, saying that the
replays yet again showed that there were Eagle linemen who
jumped off sides.
Speaker 2 (14:25):
It was not called.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
So the question is, do you feel the agony of
the fan calling out the Toush push saying it must
be banned. It must be banned after the Eagles ran
it four times their rapid fire in the second quarter. So,
as American IDOL judge back in the day, Randy Jackson
(14:46):
would say, Yeah, that's gonna be a no for me. Dog,
that's gonna be a no. Now, the Eagles, I might
be wrong with this. I believe they lost the game,
and I don't think this is a crime against you,
vanity that they continue to run the Toush push, right,
that just calm down now. As for the pearl clutching,
(15:07):
which is going on call the fall start call the penalty.
Uh yeah, there were penalties.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
They were not called.
Speaker 1 (15:16):
And so you're you're saying letter of the law around
I'm a spirit of the law guy, not letter of
the law guy. Every offensive lineman in the league twitches
a little bit before the snap, right. You only notice
it because you're like, well, it's the slow motion replay
on it.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
It's one of those things you can call a penalty
on every play if you want and all that.
Speaker 1 (15:36):
And if I was Nick Sirianni and I had this play,
I would never stop bringing it. I would run it
twenty times a game. I'm shocked they don't run it more.
If it's fourth and one, toush push, third and inches,
tush push. If it's you're at a wedding and you're
(15:57):
walking someone down the aisle, tush push right down the aisle.
But it's ugly. It's not a football player. It's ugly. Okay,
football's not pretty anymore. See if Martha Stewart's still around,
I don't know track her DAWs. She'll make it look better.
But it's not the Eagles job to make the game
(16:19):
pretty for you. It's not. And the NFL could have
gotten rid of it, they didn't have enough votes, And
I'm okay with it. This is one of those things
that drives me nuts. I've gotten on my soapbox here
at the Bully pulpit, and I've I've said, listen, in baseball,
they shouldn't have gotten rid of the shift. There's an
easy way to solve the shift, just bunt. Use you
(16:41):
choke up on the bat, hit the ball the other
way and the shift will go with But baseball, of course,
god forbid you. I'll make the players self regulate. So
they got.
Speaker 2 (16:50):
Rid of it, although it's still kind of there.
Speaker 1 (16:52):
They just there's this imaginary line near second base and
then this is the same situation, right, it works. If
you want it banned, it's because you're just admitting you're
a loser and you can't beat It's just like, stop whining.
You don't even understand how bad it sounds. You just
sound weak. And you know the as far as like
(17:13):
the referees and all that, well, the NFL referees have
been incompetent my entire life. And the point is either
two things. Stop the play or run the play. Yourself says,
if you can't stop it, why would anyone else be
able to stop it. It's it's the job to score touchdowns.
It's not to say, oh, we got to score, but
(17:34):
we got to do a certain way. No. Now, the
other question I had quickly the other question, what does
the tush push mean to Jalen Hurts? Right watching him
play in the second half the ugly truth, the naked truth.
And every time I watch Jalen Hurts more and more
I think the same thing, and I get very I
(17:55):
get very angry people sending me messages, Well, you don't
know what you're talking about. I don't understand what you
keep saying that you.
Speaker 2 (18:00):
Really don't know ball.
Speaker 1 (18:03):
And maybe I'm the only one I could be the
When I watch Jalen Hurts play quarterback, I think this
guy is a jag, just a guy, not a Jacksonville
jack just a guy, right that if you take this
play away and the way things are going at some
point here in the next couple of years, the tush
push will be be outlawed. When I watched Jalen Hurts though,
(18:24):
it's like, if you take that play away, it's the
only thing that he does at a super level, it
would be like Tony Stark having the Iron Man suit
taken away from Without the suit, He's just a rich
guy with some nice facial hair. That's it, right. Without
the tush push, Jalen Hurts turns into what Kyler Murray
(18:46):
without the video game addiction. Right, Kyler Murray in a
bad Thursday night game. He's not flying around, he's grounded.
It's Jalen Hurts. Is Kyler Murray with better body language,
without the toush push. Now with it, you can win
a super Bowl. They just did. They're the reigning super
Bowl champions. Congratulations. And in any short yardage situation, and
(19:07):
it's it's amazing how many times during the course of
the game it ends up being third down and one
or fourth down and one. And in those situations it's
an unstoppable super nova. And so if you take that
away and you had to do things the other way,
how would that turn out?
Speaker 2 (19:25):
Tumble down more times than not.
Speaker 1 (19:29):
It is the.

(23:12):
let you know we have reached our cruising altitude. So
we are we are good to go, good to go
on that? And what do we have Late night drug
tester says Philly just needs to get used to this dysfunction.
Jalen Hurts is there until twenty twenty eight. Nick Sirianni
is there until twenty thirty. This could be a better
watch than Jerry and the Cowboys, says Late Night Drug tester. Well,
(23:36):
it depends. It's really whether or not the uh the
Toush push is banned, because then that becomes much interesting,
much more interesting. Can Jalen Hurts find something else? Can
he be successful? Is he just going to be mister
average without the Toush push? Yeah, Sports Plus says wondering uh.
(24:03):
He says he enjoys the media ripping the Dodger fans
to the the meatheads from Philadelphia media that are showing up.
That showed up to LA. Of course they left a
losers and they were complaining about the empty seats at
the Dodger game. I don't think people. People don't literally
have well listen, I don't think you understand how dumb
(24:26):
it is to play a playoff game at three o'clock.
Speaker 2 (24:28):
It is physically impossible.
Speaker 1 (24:29):
The ballpark questions just stupid people. Dodger Stadium is built
on a hill overlooking downtown Los Angeles. It's near the
one ten Freeway, which is the oldest Freeway. That part
of the one ten, the oldest highway in all of America.
It was the first highway. It's like the auto bon
(24:51):
when I say it's the auto ban, the on ramps.
And I used to live right over there. I live
right near Dodger Stadium, and it is a crap show.
You are literally a daredevil getting on that Avenue forty
six and those avenues up through that area of LA
And three o'clock game on a Thursday, which is a
(25:12):
day of business. I know not everyone's back in the
office five years after the pandemic, but there's still a
lot of people working in there. And you think that
the stadium's gonna be packed at three o'clock. No, that
was played at three o'clock because the Eagles played a
game at five o'clock and they were trying to get
as much of the audience in Philadelphia. They didn't want
(25:34):
to split the audience, so they wanted to play the
game at three o'clock. And it's not because of the travel,
because they have a day off for travel. It's because
they were trying to It was for the TV. That's
why they did it. So that's that. What else we
have to see page down here, we'll skip over that
we have slunk rights in Oh you wanted to know
(25:57):
if we fix money thing?
Speaker 5 (25:59):
Was?
Speaker 1 (26:00):
That was the answer. I'll get to that in a minute.
Ferg Dog says, I'm replying to.
Speaker 2 (26:04):
The monologue out of order.
Speaker 1 (26:06):
But wasn't it kind of weird seeing the Dodgers mob
Andy Paez after his weak tapper. Wouldn't have made more
sense to mob the Phillies pitcher literally giving them the win.
You know, it's one of the iconic photos, one of
the iconic photos you could possibly have in sports. And
(26:30):
I was gonna bring this up later, but I'll bring
it up right now. So the game ends, the Dodgers
and the Phillies game ended, right, and the Dodgers went
out in the field. They're all excited, right, They're going
on to the next round. And the Philadelphia Phillies pitcher,
the numb nuts who cost the Phillies the game, right
because he can't feel his position or Ryan Kirking or
(26:51):
Kirkering is his name, Ryan Kokering. I will say a
bad word if I say that.
Speaker 5 (26:59):
Five.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
So he's slumped over and he's like, oh man, I
have just for the rest of my life, I have
given shame to my name and for our blind listener.
So he's he's slumped over now he's not on the ground,
but he's he's got yeah, yeah, he's got his hands.
His hands are kind of on his knees. He's leaning over.
He's contemplating the time space continuum. He's wondering if time
(27:23):
travel is real because he'd like to go back in
time and get away from this. And as he's leaning
over now, the Dodgers have just won, so they're running
out of the dugout to celebrate behind him, as Ferg
Dog mentioned, to celebrate with Andy pye as who hit
a two hopper to the mount. And you see in
(27:44):
the shot Mookie Betts show Hail Tani and Freddie Freeman
having to run around Ryan Kirking or Kirkering had to
run around the Phillies pitcher to get to the celebration.
So I did some malor math on that, and that is,
if my math is correct, and it's malor math, that's
(28:07):
one point two billion dollars in salary that is running
around running around O Ryan Kirking Kirkering to get to
the celebration. Mookie bet signed a three hundred million dollar
contract with the Dodgers. Freddy Freeman's made about two hundred million,
and Shoe Hail Tani by the time he's done, will
be at seven hundred and forty million dollars to play baseball.
(28:32):
My god, Alf the Alien ol piny ride Sin says,
I know how much you appreciate a good temperature update
weather with Roberto in the greater Springfield area, possibly in Worcester,
twenty nine degrees right now, twenty nine degrees, and I
see Alf has the on Star services in his car.
(28:56):
He's got WiFi and h trailer lights as well, so
he's got all that, but twenty nine degrees.
Speaker 2 (29:04):
And Alf knows what he's doing here.
Speaker 1 (29:05):
Alf's what he's going to do is inspire other people
to say, well, it's colder where I am. It's like
when somebody says the gas is really cheap here, then
other people have to say another, gas is cheaper where
I am. I said, well, no, you don't need to
say that, and what are you.
Speaker 2 (29:22):
Doing all Let's go to the phones. Let's say hello
to eeny meenie miney moe.
Speaker 1 (29:27):
We'll say hello to Andrew in Bakersfield. Hello, Andrew, welcome.
Speaker 5 (29:37):
I'd like to comment on the Eagles. Okay, I don't
think the problem is Jalen Hurts. He's been good ever since.
He should he never should have been pulled out in
the Alabama game. But I think the Eagles it's on Saquon. Okay,
I agree with LeVar Arrington who says that it was
a mistake for Saquon not to go for the rushing
(29:59):
record last year, and I think it's hanging over their heads.
What do you think.
Speaker 1 (30:05):
I think that's one of the dumbest takes I've ever heard.
You say.
Speaker 3 (30:09):
Wow, well, well.
Speaker 1 (30:10):
Yeah, I know you're blind, so I can't say have
you watched the games because you haven't watched the games.
But I mean the Eagles passing offense is pathetic, like like,
what are you doing? He's the quarterback, like he's the
he's the guy. So you're admitting but by admitting that
Barkley is the problem, you're admitting that Jalen Hurts is
(30:33):
a fraud. Do you understand that? Do you understand that
you're admitting that the only reason the Eagles won the championship?
And I agree with you if that's your take. I
think that's a great take. The Eagles won because as Kwan.
Barkley had a career year and was amazing and was
wonderful and all that, and he carried Jalen Hursts to
the super Bowl. Now you can say, well, Jalen Hurts
played better than the super Bowl. Okay, fine, but doesn't matter.
(30:54):
Barkley led them to the Promised Land. I would agree
with that take. I'd say that's a good take. I'd
give you an am that ticke. I' say that's an
a take. But you're trying to tell me that there's
no culpability for Jalen Hurts when the main job of
the quarterback is to be the guy that leads the
passing offense. And Philadelphia after this game now is twenty
eighth in the NFL. There are thirty two teams. They
(31:16):
have the twenty eighth ranked passing offense. They're barely better
than the Jets, barely better than Cincinnati, Arizona and Tennessee's.
Speaker 2 (31:25):
Way back, but they're in the same group.
Speaker 1 (31:27):
Their neighbors are the Jets, Bengals, and the Arizona Cardinals.
Speaker 5 (31:33):
All I'm saying is Jalen Hurts is used to having
the balance of a good running game, and that might
be a big part of the problem. I'm not saying either.
Speaker 1 (31:44):
Again, so just for the record, you're doubling down on
the bad take. You're doubling down on the bad take.
Is that correct? You said, I like the bad take,
I want the bad take. I'm going to double down
on the bad take. Okay?
Speaker 2 (31:56):
Is that the way we're doing this?
Speaker 3 (31:57):
Yere?
Speaker 1 (31:57):
Is that correct?
Speaker 5 (31:59):
Take it how you want. But I'm saying that Jalen
Hurts did better when he had a good running game.
Speaker 1 (32:06):
Okay, obviously, don't you think every quarterback would do better
with a good running game. Don't you think that's the
kind of obvious? Like why does that need to be said?
Why are you saying that You shouldn't need to say that.
Speaker 5 (32:16):
Why do you say that it is if they're a
good team, they have good play caller. All right, I'll
let you get to others.
Speaker 1 (32:25):
Andrew, Uh, Andrew's growing on me kind of like a
like a mole, you know, like get that removed. I know, right,
Like his Dodger takes are legendarily bad. You'd think he'd
have a Dodger take here, but no, he wanted to
(32:45):
talk about the Eagles and the Giants. But then he
kind of repackaged the levard take and he didn't want to.
He didn't want to own the take, so you like
blamed LeVar Arrington for the take, which was it's kind
of like a weird d Jalen Hurts after the first
quarter in that game was really bad. I can crunch
(33:06):
the numbers. I'll do it later.
Speaker 2 (33:07):
I don't I don't have the Malard math right now.
Speaker 1 (33:09):
And there's other people that want to talk. Let's go
to Danny DeVito, America's favorite trash man in Boston. We
have Mallard of the third degree coming up. Hello Danny DeVito.
Hey Danny, did you watch the game on Thursday? By
the way, were you watching?
Speaker 9 (33:21):
I watched these games then, especially have money on them.
So it was a decent night. Was I got the
Giant So.
Speaker 1 (33:28):
Yeah, I watched that. Did you notice the viral moment?
Did you notice the viral moment?
Speaker 3 (33:34):
What was that?
Speaker 1 (33:36):
So Jackson Dart high five the referee that yeah, yeah, yeah,
yeah five. It was like a comedy bit on Saturday
Night Live or something like Cam Scattaboo scored the touchdown
and Jackson Dart high five the referee. You know, you know, now, Danny,
(33:57):
you know if if the Giants actually do become a
good team and they start getting calls, or it's perceived
that they're getting calls from the referees. That is going
to be repackaged every Giants game. They're gonna make that
a gift online and it'll be Jackson start high fiving
the referee and every time they get a call. I
would agree with that.
Speaker 9 (34:17):
And that's one of the reasons why I'm calling is, uh,
I've vent the Giants finally found himself a guy bearing
Jackson Doe. I like what I see. That could be
a star coming there. I like what I see, and
that is one of the reasons why I'm calling. The
other reason why I'm calling is mister Belichick. Ben he
run his name. I mean this guy really, I'm not
(34:40):
talking about the woman I'm miss talking about him in general.
As far as his coaching ability is. He I shot
down now, I stepped down from what he was back
in like I don't know, twenty oh seven, twenty twelve.
Speaker 1 (34:55):
Yeah, people are gonna they're gonna block It's kind of
like a car accident, you block it out. What Belichick's
doing right now is it's an eighteen car pile up
on the interstate. You're just going to forget about it,
and you'll remember him with the Patriots, and you know,
as time goes on. I don't I don't think this
is going to stick with him unless there's something else
that we don't know about that that comes out. You
(35:16):
say you wanted to coach again. He went to the
only people that would hire him is North Carolina and
it's not a football school, and he's done a terrible
job and.
Speaker 9 (35:24):
He wants out of there, have been too Now.
Speaker 1 (35:27):
Well I suppose we'll see. We'll see whether you want
his little puppet there and body he wants out of
there too, so fat.
Speaker 9 (35:37):
And then the last thing I want to say, is, uh,
what's his name? There? The guy who just got him
drawing a blank? Now the guy who just got in
trouble of beating up? This guy has everything going for
him and he goes out there and beats up an
old man overnight. Uh the announcey there.
Speaker 1 (35:59):
March Ben?
Speaker 9 (36:03):
What is she thinking?
Speaker 1 (36:04):
Ben?
Speaker 9 (36:04):
He's got everything going for him and he's helt do
win strits? Is that drugs?
Speaker 3 (36:08):
Though? Is that?
Speaker 9 (36:10):
I can't believe.
Speaker 1 (36:12):
I have No, we.
Speaker 2 (36:14):
Don't know the whole story. And there is obviously more
to the story.
Speaker 1 (36:16):
I mean, that's not normal human behavior to just get
into that situation. I don't know. I mean, if there
is a trial, it'll all come out in the trial.
Speaker 2 (36:24):
I have a feeling there won't be a trial. I
have a feeling that they'll just be some kind of
out of.
Speaker 1 (36:28):
You know, he's obviously based on based on yeah, based
on what we know, he's gonna be.
Speaker 2 (36:35):
I gotta let you go.
Speaker 1 (36:36):
I gotta leave some time for the thirty But thank
you the great Danny DeVito time now though, for the
inch to trivia well, he mentioned Jackson Dart of the Giants.
Jackson Dart joined Blank as the only rookie quarterbacks to
defeat the defending Super Bowl champions in prime time over
the last twenty seasons of NFL football. Jackson Dart joined
Blank the only rookie quarterbacks to defeat the defending Super
(36:59):
Bowl champions and a primetime Island game Sports with Coleman

Jackson Dart Giants quarterback Joined Blank is the only rookie
quarterbacks to defeat the defending Super Bowl champion in primetime
(39:01):
in the last twenty seasons. That's an island game. I
know the moving man in Boston's excited about that. Let's see,
does anyone know the answer? On the X machine, we
go to the Great Unwashed here and all the funny names.
Bailey Zappy from Alf Kurt Cobain guessed by Bobby in Florida,
Rod the Ambassador of Bakersfield, the Cheater. He got it right,
(39:24):
so did Andy. Russ Francis from Aileen in San Francisco.
Speaker 2 (39:28):
That's a good name. Who else do we have?
Speaker 1 (39:29):
Troy Tulwhisky is forty one today from the Late Night Rugchester.
Tony Romo Sexual from Just Josh and Cincinnati. Well you
changed it up, Josh.
Speaker 2 (39:38):
All right, that's probably enough. We have time for it.
Speaker 1 (39:40):
Do you have an answer? Lorena.
Speaker 2 (39:41):
It's not Will.
Speaker 1 (39:42):
Will levis the one and only Errington. That was each guest.
Speaker 2 (39:46):
No, it's not LeVar Arrington. It's incorrect.
Speaker 1 (39:48):
The correct answer is r G three exact what the
team called the Washington Redskins against that?
Speaker 2 (39:56):
Yeah, I guess the Giants that was twenty twelve.
Speaker 1 (39:59):
That was apparently. Yeah, this is one big Ben gets.
Speaker 2 (40:06):
Grilled as like an elementary skill cope.
Speaker 3 (40:09):
Ben.
Speaker 10 (40:09):
Leading up to the Broncos game against the Jets in London,
bo Nicks kind of pushed back on the idea that
it's a trap game.
Speaker 1 (40:16):
Instead, trap games don't really exist.
Speaker 10 (40:18):
He said, I think in the league, quite honestly, it's
a little dispectful, disrespectful to consider anybody a trap team.
They're an NFL team, You're gonna have some really good players.
It's not a trap game.
Speaker 1 (40:27):
Ben.
Speaker 10 (40:27):
Do you agree with him?
Speaker 1 (40:29):
Now?
Speaker 2 (40:29):
Bo Knicks is a dope.
Speaker 1 (40:30):
I've been handicapping NFL games and even before I started
listening to people that are older than me, this is
a thing. It is absolutely think Historically, if you look
at the gambling trends, it happens teams underperform after a
big win when they're playing a suck bag team it
happens next.
Speaker 10 (40:47):
There are some of the NFL community that believe Panthers
coach Dave Canalis could bench Bryce Young for Andy Dalton
again sooner rather than later. Ben Do you think Young
gets bench the season?
Speaker 1 (40:56):
Bryce Young? Two things are true. Bryce Young sucks and
he will not be benched because if he gets bench, Dave
Canals is out.
Speaker 10 (41:02):
Next, Steelers are linked to upgrades at wide receiver. Some
of the names are Jalen Waddle and Jacoby Myers. Do
you think they could make a move from.
Speaker 1 (41:08):
One of these guys? Yes, yeah, Jacoby Myers, although I
knowing the Steelers will probably just like sign Odell Beckham
because he's friends with Aaron Rodgers. How did we do?
I won, hollering James
Ding dong. It's our number two, our number two. How
new you knew in.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
Our number two?
Speaker 1 (00:10):
So the Thursday night NFL game, Upset City, what even close?
Eagles shutout in the second half, Giants win going away.
It's a laugher for the New York Giants over the
supposed to the champion team in the NFL. So what's
the temperature in the Eagle locker room around Jalen Hurts
after that stinker? Also, is the hype warranted for Jackson
(00:32):
Dart and Cam Skataboo, the young players for the Giants?
They are the toast of New York now after that
game in Jersey last night, So we will discuss that. Also,
do you feel the agony of fans calling for the
tush push ban after the Eagles ran it four times
in a row in the second quarter? And what does
the tush push mean in the big picture for Jalen
(00:56):
Hurts of the Eagles. All that and more right now
we serve it up piping hot on this Friday. It's
our number two. Fly Eagles fly right into the ground.
Welcome in the beginning of another hour of the Ben
Mahlor Show. We are in the air everywhere incoats as
(01:23):
we stay away from mental disineration. Coast to coast, border
to border in beyond on the mass and splashly powerful
microphones of fs.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
Are am monating live.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
From the Goose the Wild Goose Chase, that is overnight
talk radio from the world famous Fox Sports Radio studios,
as approved by the Crazy Crab. That's right. This portion
of the Ben Malor Show on Fox made possible in
part by our friends at ti Iraq. For over forty years,
ti Iraq has been helping customers like nice Guy and
(02:01):
Jonathan in Delaware find the right tires for how, what
and where they drive. Mister Irrigation says, that's cool, ship
fast and free back by free road hazard protection with
convenient installation options like mobile tire installation tire rack dot
com the way that tire buying should be. So we
(02:22):
discussed the wacky wacky world of Major League Baseball last hour.
The Dodgers victorious and the Chicago Cubs victorious as well.
So they both have advanced well, the Dodgers advanced, the
Cubs advanced to a game five on Saturday in baseball.
But while those things were going on, mostly the Cub
(02:44):
Brewer game, we had We had ash in the NFL
a Thursday Night special. Al Michaels was there, Kirk Herbstreet, Herbie.
They had to call in the Amazon as they were
calling that game. And that's going to lead this hour
from New Jersey the reigning Super Bowl champion Eagles traveling party.
They went up I ninety five to take on the Giants.
(03:06):
I don't know if you were watching, maybe you're watching
the baseball or not. The theme of the night with
was youth be served as rookie Cam Scataboo running wild,
running and stumbling for not one, not two, but three
three touchdowns and fellow rookie quarterback Jackson Dart had one
rushing score and another passing. The New York Giants Wake
(03:30):
up the Echoes. The Giants beat the Eagles thirty four
seventeen to the final in the Thursday Night game. And
so with that, it was less than a week ago
that the Eagles had not lost the game in forever,
and now they've lost two games in just a few days.
The Broncos got them, and now the Giants knocked them
(03:50):
down a couple more pegs here. The better story is
in that losing locker room. So let us discuss the question,
what is the temperature. Let's do a temperature check. What
is the temperature in the Eagles locker room around Jalen
hurts at this point.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
So my observations on this.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
I've got Smorgasborg, Smuckers and Tony Stark, and we will
combine all of these things together, all of them, and
we're gonna play doctor Jekyl mister Hyde, because Philadelphia in
many ways is a doctor Jekyl mister Hyde operation of
the football team. And put all this together, and we're
(04:30):
gonna make your Babushka's favorite choked cheese steak. Now, the
Phillies ate the choke cheese steak in many ways. The
Eagles did as well. But Number I said number one,
all right, So if the Eagles locker room temperature is
a gauge, it's redlining right now. It's redlining. It's a
(04:51):
tender box. It is what's in the box. It's a
tinder box. At this point, less than a week ago,
the Eagles were sitting pretty as a We're not winning
by a lot, but we're winning and that's all that matters.
And I did a monologue say there's some some issues
there in Philadelphia, and of course immediately got the blowback.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
You just though, that's why you're doing overnight, Fatty.
Speaker 1 (05:13):
I love that so much. It's so good, and so
I get that kind of feedback. And here we are
ten days later. The Eagles have now lost twice, and
so they were one of the last unbeaten.
Speaker 2 (05:25):
Teams in the NFL.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
But now the trap door has opened up and they've
fallen into a Pitavanaconda's.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
At this point here, things are not going particularly well.
Speaker 1 (05:34):
The Eagles scored as many points in the second half
as the Fox Sports radio football team. Yes, bupkiss, Let's
hear from Jalen Hurts, the Eagles quarterback, on what exactly
were you doing in the second half? Take a listen.
Speaker 3 (05:50):
That's a third straight game.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
You guys didn't score second half point?
Speaker 4 (05:54):
What's going on?
Speaker 3 (05:54):
Half of the half?
Speaker 4 (05:56):
I gotta be better, Gotta be better. Take on the
shift for you know, a lot of a lot of
autonomy and a lot of opportunity there with the ball
in my hands and giving those situations, I have to
be a wiser and more detailed with it. So I
always looking in with first, you know, looking in with
(06:18):
on the things that I can control. And you know,
I see a lot of opportunity in this.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
Okay, Yes, you're at a fork in the road and
it's either you put the thing back on the tracks
here or that's it.
Speaker 5 (06:31):
Now.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
Shut out in the second half by a Giants defense
which came in ranked twenty second in scoring defense twenty
sixth in total defense, handed a game away last week
to the New Orleans Saints on offense with five turnovers,
and yet they made Jalen Hurts look like he was
trying to throw a medicine ball in the second and a half.
Now here's the part that should make Eagle fans have heartburn,
(06:55):
make them really, really nervous. You know this, if you're
a real Egle fan, cut you open and cheese steak
comes out.
Speaker 2 (07:03):
I'm talking.
Speaker 1 (07:04):
I'm not talking cheese whiz. I'm talking the cheese steak
with the pro boloan. They just call this steak sam
which in Philadelphia, that locker room has a smell.
Speaker 2 (07:13):
You know that smell.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
You smell that that's the oh, that's the oh smell. Yeah,
you've got divas to the right, divas to the left.
In the wide receiver room. You've got your quarterback with
an underthrow to the right, an overthrow to the left,
misreading the defense in the middle, AJ Brown giving everything
(07:35):
side eye on the sidelines, you've got DeVante Smith starting
to stare off into the void. And then they just
heard from Jalen Hurts. You know, mister Joe cool right
now and all that. You know, just gotta flush it away.
And but he does play like a guy who's pressing.
There was a lot of behind the scenes drama in
(07:56):
Philadelphia this week with reports of a me between kind
of a peace meeting between the quarterback and.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
The receivers, and they went at it.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
And so this is not the same group that walked
into stadiums last year and was a juggernaut. Not right now,
they're not. They look tight, they're detached. And it's not
always sunny in Philadelphia. That's false advertised always cloudy. It's
always cloudy there. And the Eagles have all the ingredients necessary,
all of them to cook up a Smorgsborg of disaster,
(08:30):
a total Smorgesborg of disaster. If you check the cabinets,
they've got the ingredients. You've got diva wide receivers, you've
got the disease of me with AJ Brown and Devonte
Smith saying they're not getting the ball enough. Javonte We
mentioned Jalen Hurts with the wild throws. Sequon Barkley, he
has been a cookie cutter running back. This year he
was a super nova. He's now a dime store running back.
(08:54):
The defense has regressed. It's a middle of the pack defense.
It's all the ticking time bomb and the chick rry
on top. You've got a head coach who's not exactly
a calming presence. Nick Sirianni, one of the great front
runners of our time. Does anyone disagree with that? When
things are going well, he's pounding his chest and running around,
(09:15):
you know, chest bumping him, naval gazing, all that stuff.
And when things aren't going well, uh, not so good.
Here's Nick Sirianni, the Eagles head coach, commenting on the
lack of offense.
Speaker 2 (09:28):
There was none in the second half for his.
Speaker 6 (09:30):
Team, obviously, you know anytime, you know, I think there
were some some good moments in the run game today.
Got ourselves behind the sticks a little bit in the
second half on some of some of some of the
runs there. So we'll we'll look at everything right there,
you know, we we know we we know we have
the guys up front to be able to do that. Obviously,
(09:52):
we gotta we got to do a good job putting
them in positions to succeed, and then we got to
go execute.
Speaker 1 (09:59):
Okay, I guess we had to cut off the word execute,
but that was a breach of etiquette. A breach of
etiquette there the way the Eagles were playing. And so
the second part is, let's go to the Giants. We'll
go back to the Eagles, but let's go to the
Giants right now. So the question on the Giants the
winning locker room, which is not as good as story.
The winning locker room is just not it's just not
as good a story as the losing locker room. But
we'll go there now. So the question is a lot
(10:21):
of lot of pumping the tires on the young players
for the Giants, right, A lot of pumping the tires
on this is so it is the hype warranted for
Jackson Dart and Cam Skataboo, the quarterback running back combination.
It is already over the top. So I thought they
(10:42):
both looked good. I don't know how you couldn't make
that statement that they both look good. But I would
pump the brakes on having a parade down the Canyon
of heroes for Jackson Dart and Camscataboo. Based on social
media only, these guys have now squared the circle. They
have absolutely scar the circle. I guess we'll forget about
(11:02):
the fact that they gave a game away to the
New Orleans Saints a few days ago, but.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
We'll just come on.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
So it's it's great. It's one night, one night only,
that's it. And yeah, on this night, we do this.
We do the talk show daily and so right now,
you know, each night. And they were Cam Scataboo and
Jackson Dart were smuckers, uncrustables, right, peanut butter and jelly,
perfectly packaged sweet in the middle, snack sized football heroes
(11:30):
they were. However, to say that this is now going
to be a thing is a classic overreaction. Right, you
sentence yourself to prison. You're now in the the jail cell,
prisoner of the moment. And Jackson Dart was out there
looking like a shaw Day, a smooth operator, throwing the
(11:51):
ball around and fired up. And it's very weird to
see the Giants with someone playing quarterback that looks like
they know what they're doing. Haven't had that in a
long time. And then you've got Cam Skataboo, who we
saw in college, became a cult hero in his college
days briefly and wasn't drafted very high. And he ran
through the Eagles defense like it was a kid running
(12:11):
through sprinklers out on a park somewhere in a hot
summer afternoon. And yeah, that was fun. I'm not a
Giants fan, but for those of you that do partake
in the Giants, it was loud, it was great, a
little razzle dazzle. When's the last time they had razzle dazzle?
And it was probably already know, I know, is the
peak the right word? I don't know if peaks the
(12:31):
right word, but this was like a revival tan. It
was like a religious experience for the Giant fans who've
been in a football coma, in a malaise for so
many years here. But I go back to the question
is is this permanent? Well, no, it's premature to say
that it's See. The problem is I actually kind of
(12:53):
liked these two guys. And what's gonna happen is the
New York overhype machine's gonna get it craked up, and
I'm gonn start hate both of them.
Speaker 2 (13:01):
I know this always happens.
Speaker 1 (13:04):
Right now, It's fun to watch camp scatterboy bump heads
and run through people and not care about his long
term health. And Jackson Dart looks really like an exciting
young quarterback. And yet I know I'm going to hate
them because this is what always happens with New York athletes.
You just get it shoved down your throat and you
(13:24):
begin to despise them. At least I do. Maybe you don't,
all right, final point, So I'll go back to the
Philadelphia side of things. One of the storylines in this game,
if you're watching it in the second quarter, fans were
spitting mad, spitting mad neutral fans because the Philadelphia Eagles
tush push took over the game.
Speaker 2 (13:44):
So during the second quarter, Philadelphia was in.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
The red zone and they needed a couple more yards
to reach the end zone. So not only did they
attempt the touch push, but they did it four times
in a row. Touch push, tush pushed bush bush, touch
buch touchy touchy touch. Hey, that's what they did, and
they did score. Jalen Hurts eventually scored. The reaction though
(14:08):
there was a visceral reaction to that second quarter stretch
where they ran the four Tousch pushes and.
Speaker 2 (14:15):
The repetition of it.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
People very upset, demanding it be outlawed, saying that the
replays yet again showed that there were Eagle linemen who
jumped off sides.
Speaker 2 (14:25):
It was not called.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
So the question is, do you feel the agony of
the fan calling out the Toush push saying it must
be banned. It must be banned after the Eagles ran
it four times their rapid fire in the second quarter. So,
as American IDOL judge back in the day, Randy Jackson
(14:46):
would say, Yeah, that's gonna be a no for me. Dog,
that's gonna be a no. Now, the Eagles, I might
be wrong with this. I believe they lost the game,
and I don't think this is a crime against you,
vanity that they continue to run the Toush push, right,
that just calm down now. As for the pearl clutching,
(15:07):
which is going on call the fall start call the penalty.
Uh yeah, there were penalties.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
They were not called.
Speaker 1 (15:16):
And so you're you're saying letter of the law around
I'm a spirit of the law guy, not letter of
the law guy. Every offensive lineman in the league twitches
a little bit before the snap, right. You only notice
it because you're like, well, it's the slow motion replay
on it.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
It's one of those things you can call a penalty
on every play if you want and all that.
Speaker 1 (15:36):
And if I was Nick Sirianni and I had this play,
I would never stop bringing it. I would run it
twenty times a game. I'm shocked they don't run it more.
If it's fourth and one, toush push, third and inches,
tush push. If it's you're at a wedding and you're
(15:57):
walking someone down the aisle, tush push right down the aisle.
But it's ugly. It's not a football player. It's ugly. Okay,
football's not pretty anymore. See if Martha Stewart's still around,
I don't know track her DAWs. She'll make it look better.
But it's not the Eagles job to make the game
(16:19):
pretty for you. It's not. And the NFL could have
gotten rid of it, they didn't have enough votes, And
I'm okay with it. This is one of those things
that drives me nuts. I've gotten on my soapbox here
at the Bully pulpit, and I've I've said, listen, in baseball,
they shouldn't have gotten rid of the shift. There's an
easy way to solve the shift, just bunt. Use you
(16:41):
choke up on the bat, hit the ball the other
way and the shift will go with But baseball, of course,
god forbid you. I'll make the players self regulate. So
they got.
Speaker 2 (16:50):
Rid of it, although it's still kind of there.
Speaker 1 (16:52):
They just there's this imaginary line near second base and
then this is the same situation, right, it works. If
you want it banned, it's because you're just admitting you're
a loser and you can't beat It's just like, stop whining.
You don't even understand how bad it sounds. You just
sound weak. And you know the as far as like
(17:13):
the referees and all that, well, the NFL referees have
been incompetent my entire life. And the point is either
two things. Stop the play or run the play. Yourself says,
if you can't stop it, why would anyone else be
able to stop it. It's it's the job to score touchdowns.
It's not to say, oh, we got to score, but
(17:34):
we got to do a certain way. No. Now, the
other question I had quickly the other question, what does
the tush push mean to Jalen Hurts? Right watching him
play in the second half the ugly truth, the naked truth.
And every time I watch Jalen Hurts more and more
I think the same thing, and I get very I
(17:55):
get very angry people sending me messages, Well, you don't
know what you're talking about. I don't understand what you
keep saying that you.
Speaker 2 (18:00):
Really don't know ball.
Speaker 1 (18:03):
And maybe I'm the only one I could be the
When I watch Jalen Hurts play quarterback, I think this
guy is a jag, just a guy, not a Jacksonville
jack just a guy, right that if you take this
play away and the way things are going at some
point here in the next couple of years, the tush
push will be be outlawed. When I watched Jalen Hurts though,
(18:24):
it's like, if you take that play away, it's the
only thing that he does at a super level, it
would be like Tony Stark having the Iron Man suit
taken away from Without the suit, He's just a rich
guy with some nice facial hair. That's it, right. Without
the tush push, Jalen Hurts turns into what Kyler Murray
(18:46):
without the video game addiction. Right, Kyler Murray in a
bad Thursday night game. He's not flying around, he's grounded.
It's Jalen Hurts. Is Kyler Murray with better body language,
without the toush push. Now with it, you can win
a super Bowl. They just did. They're the reigning super
Bowl champions. Congratulations. And in any short yardage situation, and
(19:07):
it's it's amazing how many times during the course of
the game it ends up being third down and one
or fourth down and one. And in those situations it's
an unstoppable super nova. And so if you take that
away and you had to do things the other way,
how would that turn out?
Speaker 2 (19:25):
Tumble down more times than not.
Speaker 1 (19:29):
It is the.

(23:12):
let you know we have reached our cruising altitude. So
we are we are good to go, good to go
on that? And what do we have Late night drug
tester says Philly just needs to get used to this dysfunction.
Jalen Hurts is there until twenty twenty eight. Nick Sirianni
is there until twenty thirty. This could be a better
watch than Jerry and the Cowboys, says Late Night Drug tester. Well,
(23:36):
it depends. It's really whether or not the uh the
Toush push is banned, because then that becomes much interesting,
much more interesting. Can Jalen Hurts find something else? Can
he be successful? Is he just going to be mister
average without the Toush push? Yeah, Sports Plus says wondering uh.
(24:03):
He says he enjoys the media ripping the Dodger fans
to the the meatheads from Philadelphia media that are showing up.
That showed up to LA. Of course they left a
losers and they were complaining about the empty seats at
the Dodger game. I don't think people. People don't literally
have well listen, I don't think you understand how dumb
(24:26):
it is to play a playoff game at three o'clock.
Speaker 2 (24:28):
It is physically impossible.
Speaker 1 (24:29):
The ballpark questions just stupid people. Dodger Stadium is built
on a hill overlooking downtown Los Angeles. It's near the
one ten Freeway, which is the oldest Freeway. That part
of the one ten, the oldest highway in all of America.
It was the first highway. It's like the auto bon
(24:51):
when I say it's the auto ban, the on ramps.
And I used to live right over there. I live
right near Dodger Stadium, and it is a crap show.
You are literally a daredevil getting on that Avenue forty
six and those avenues up through that area of LA
And three o'clock game on a Thursday, which is a
(25:12):
day of business. I know not everyone's back in the
office five years after the pandemic, but there's still a
lot of people working in there. And you think that
the stadium's gonna be packed at three o'clock. No, that
was played at three o'clock because the Eagles played a
game at five o'clock and they were trying to get
as much of the audience in Philadelphia. They didn't want
(25:34):
to split the audience, so they wanted to play the
game at three o'clock. And it's not because of the travel,
because they have a day off for travel. It's because
they were trying to It was for the TV. That's
why they did it. So that's that. What else we
have to see page down here, we'll skip over that
we have slunk rights in Oh you wanted to know
(25:57):
if we fix money thing?
Speaker 5 (25:59):
Was?
Speaker 1 (26:00):
That was the answer. I'll get to that in a minute.
Ferg Dog says, I'm replying to.
Speaker 2 (26:04):
The monologue out of order.
Speaker 1 (26:06):
But wasn't it kind of weird seeing the Dodgers mob
Andy Paez after his weak tapper. Wouldn't have made more
sense to mob the Phillies pitcher literally giving them the win.
You know, it's one of the iconic photos, one of
the iconic photos you could possibly have in sports. And
(26:30):
I was gonna bring this up later, but I'll bring
it up right now. So the game ends, the Dodgers
and the Phillies game ended, right, and the Dodgers went
out in the field. They're all excited, right, They're going
on to the next round. And the Philadelphia Phillies pitcher,
the numb nuts who cost the Phillies the game, right
because he can't feel his position or Ryan Kirking or
(26:51):
Kirkering is his name, Ryan Kokering. I will say a
bad word if I say that.
Speaker 5 (26:59):
Five.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
So he's slumped over and he's like, oh man, I
have just for the rest of my life, I have
given shame to my name and for our blind listener.
So he's he's slumped over now he's not on the ground,
but he's he's got yeah, yeah, he's got his hands.
His hands are kind of on his knees. He's leaning over.
He's contemplating the time space continuum. He's wondering if time
(27:23):
travel is real because he'd like to go back in
time and get away from this. And as he's leaning
over now, the Dodgers have just won, so they're running
out of the dugout to celebrate behind him, as Ferg
Dog mentioned, to celebrate with Andy pye as who hit
a two hopper to the mount. And you see in
(27:44):
the shot Mookie Betts show Hail Tani and Freddie Freeman
having to run around Ryan Kirking or Kirkering had to
run around the Phillies pitcher to get to the celebration.
So I did some malor math on that, and that is,
if my math is correct, and it's malor math, that's
(28:07):
one point two billion dollars in salary that is running
around running around O Ryan Kirking Kirkering to get to
the celebration. Mookie bet signed a three hundred million dollar
contract with the Dodgers. Freddy Freeman's made about two hundred million,
and Shoe Hail Tani by the time he's done, will
be at seven hundred and forty million dollars to play baseball.
(28:32):
My god, Alf the Alien ol piny ride Sin says,
I know how much you appreciate a good temperature update
weather with Roberto in the greater Springfield area, possibly in Worcester,
twenty nine degrees right now, twenty nine degrees, and I
see Alf has the on Star services in his car.
(28:56):
He's got WiFi and h trailer lights as well, so
he's got all that, but twenty nine degrees.
Speaker 2 (29:04):
And Alf knows what he's doing here.
Speaker 1 (29:05):
Alf's what he's going to do is inspire other people
to say, well, it's colder where I am. It's like
when somebody says the gas is really cheap here, then
other people have to say another, gas is cheaper where
I am. I said, well, no, you don't need to
say that, and what are you.
Speaker 2 (29:22):
Doing all Let's go to the phones. Let's say hello
to eeny meenie miney moe.
Speaker 1 (29:27):
We'll say hello to Andrew in Bakersfield. Hello, Andrew, welcome.
Speaker 5 (29:37):
I'd like to comment on the Eagles. Okay, I don't
think the problem is Jalen Hurts. He's been good ever since.
He should he never should have been pulled out in
the Alabama game. But I think the Eagles it's on Saquon. Okay,
I agree with LeVar Arrington who says that it was
a mistake for Saquon not to go for the rushing
(29:59):
record last year, and I think it's hanging over their heads.
What do you think.
Speaker 1 (30:05):
I think that's one of the dumbest takes I've ever heard.
You say.
Speaker 3 (30:09):
Wow, well, well.
Speaker 1 (30:10):
Yeah, I know you're blind, so I can't say have
you watched the games because you haven't watched the games.
But I mean the Eagles passing offense is pathetic, like like,
what are you doing? He's the quarterback, like he's the
he's the guy. So you're admitting but by admitting that
Barkley is the problem, you're admitting that Jalen Hurts is
(30:33):
a fraud. Do you understand that? Do you understand that
you're admitting that the only reason the Eagles won the championship?
And I agree with you if that's your take. I
think that's a great take. The Eagles won because as Kwan.
Barkley had a career year and was amazing and was
wonderful and all that, and he carried Jalen Hursts to
the super Bowl. Now you can say, well, Jalen Hurts
played better than the super Bowl. Okay, fine, but doesn't matter.
(30:54):
Barkley led them to the Promised Land. I would agree
with that take. I'd say that's a good take. I'd
give you an am that ticke. I' say that's an
a take. But you're trying to tell me that there's
no culpability for Jalen Hurts when the main job of
the quarterback is to be the guy that leads the
passing offense. And Philadelphia after this game now is twenty
eighth in the NFL. There are thirty two teams. They
(31:16):
have the twenty eighth ranked passing offense. They're barely better
than the Jets, barely better than Cincinnati, Arizona and Tennessee's.
Speaker 2 (31:25):
Way back, but they're in the same group.
Speaker 1 (31:27):
Their neighbors are the Jets, Bengals, and the Arizona Cardinals.
Speaker 5 (31:33):
All I'm saying is Jalen Hurts is used to having
the balance of a good running game, and that might
be a big part of the problem. I'm not saying either.
Speaker 1 (31:44):
Again, so just for the record, you're doubling down on
the bad take. You're doubling down on the bad take.
Is that correct? You said, I like the bad take,
I want the bad take. I'm going to double down
on the bad take. Okay?
Speaker 2 (31:56):
Is that the way we're doing this?
Speaker 3 (31:57):
Yere?
Speaker 1 (31:57):
Is that correct?
Speaker 5 (31:59):
Take it how you want. But I'm saying that Jalen
Hurts did better when he had a good running game.
Speaker 1 (32:06):
Okay, obviously, don't you think every quarterback would do better
with a good running game. Don't you think that's the
kind of obvious? Like why does that need to be said?
Why are you saying that You shouldn't need to say that.
Speaker 5 (32:16):
Why do you say that it is if they're a
good team, they have good play caller. All right, I'll
let you get to others.
Speaker 1 (32:25):
Andrew, Uh, Andrew's growing on me kind of like a
like a mole, you know, like get that removed. I know, right,
Like his Dodger takes are legendarily bad. You'd think he'd
have a Dodger take here, but no, he wanted to
(32:45):
talk about the Eagles and the Giants. But then he
kind of repackaged the levard take and he didn't want to.
He didn't want to own the take, so you like
blamed LeVar Arrington for the take, which was it's kind
of like a weird d Jalen Hurts after the first
quarter in that game was really bad. I can crunch
(33:06):
the numbers. I'll do it later.
Speaker 2 (33:07):
I don't I don't have the Malard math right now.
Speaker 1 (33:09):
And there's other people that want to talk. Let's go
to Danny DeVito, America's favorite trash man in Boston. We
have Mallard of the third degree coming up. Hello Danny DeVito.
Hey Danny, did you watch the game on Thursday? By
the way, were you watching?
Speaker 9 (33:21):
I watched these games then, especially have money on them.
So it was a decent night. Was I got the
Giant So.
Speaker 1 (33:28):
Yeah, I watched that. Did you notice the viral moment?
Did you notice the viral moment?
Speaker 3 (33:34):
What was that?
Speaker 1 (33:36):
So Jackson Dart high five the referee that yeah, yeah, yeah,
yeah five. It was like a comedy bit on Saturday
Night Live or something like Cam Scattaboo scored the touchdown
and Jackson Dart high five the referee. You know, you know, now, Danny,
(33:57):
you know if if the Giants actually do become a
good team and they start getting calls, or it's perceived
that they're getting calls from the referees. That is going
to be repackaged every Giants game. They're gonna make that
a gift online and it'll be Jackson start high fiving
the referee and every time they get a call. I
would agree with that.
Speaker 9 (34:17):
And that's one of the reasons why I'm calling is, uh,
I've vent the Giants finally found himself a guy bearing
Jackson Doe. I like what I see. That could be
a star coming there. I like what I see, and
that is one of the reasons why I'm calling. The
other reason why I'm calling is mister Belichick. Ben he
run his name. I mean this guy really, I'm not
(34:40):
talking about the woman I'm miss talking about him in general.
As far as his coaching ability is. He I shot
down now, I stepped down from what he was back
in like I don't know, twenty oh seven, twenty twelve.
Speaker 1 (34:55):
Yeah, people are gonna they're gonna block It's kind of
like a car accident, you block it out. What Belichick's
doing right now is it's an eighteen car pile up
on the interstate. You're just going to forget about it,
and you'll remember him with the Patriots, and you know,
as time goes on. I don't I don't think this
is going to stick with him unless there's something else
that we don't know about that that comes out. You
(35:16):
say you wanted to coach again. He went to the
only people that would hire him is North Carolina and
it's not a football school, and he's done a terrible
job and.
Speaker 9 (35:24):
He wants out of there, have been too Now.
Speaker 1 (35:27):
Well I suppose we'll see. We'll see whether you want
his little puppet there and body he wants out of
there too, so fat.
Speaker 9 (35:37):
And then the last thing I want to say, is, uh,
what's his name? There? The guy who just got him
drawing a blank? Now the guy who just got in
trouble of beating up? This guy has everything going for
him and he goes out there and beats up an
old man overnight. Uh the announcey there.
Speaker 1 (35:59):
March Ben?
Speaker 9 (36:03):
What is she thinking?
Speaker 1 (36:04):
Ben?
Speaker 9 (36:04):
He's got everything going for him and he's helt do
win strits? Is that drugs?
Speaker 3 (36:08):
Though? Is that?
Speaker 9 (36:10):
I can't believe.
Speaker 1 (36:12):
I have No, we.
Speaker 2 (36:14):
Don't know the whole story. And there is obviously more
to the story.
Speaker 1 (36:16):
