Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello and welcome. It's our num burd too as we
try to avoid the motorized dandruff in our two. Charles
Barkley making some headlines in our little sporting world.
Speaker 2 (00:16):
Probably hurt over the weekend, but maybe not.
Speaker 1 (00:18):
How likely is Charles Barkley to follow through and retire
from NBA broadcasting?
Speaker 2 (00:26):
He said he was going to do it after one
more year.
Speaker 1 (00:28):
JJ Reddick, the podcaster, completed his interview for the Laker job.
What chance do you give him of getting the gig?
We'll talk about that and why is Bronnie James unlikely
to work out for any other teams after visiting the Lakers?
And the Suns will go there as well. It's all
coming your way right now here. It is our number two.
(00:54):
Has the good Time blimp been grounded? Welcome in the
big of another.
Speaker 2 (01:02):
Hour of the Benmather Show.
Speaker 3 (01:04):
We are in the air everywhere, burning the clock as
we take the checkered flag coast to coast, border to border.
Speaker 1 (01:15):
And beyond on the vast and vivaciously powerful microphones of
fsre emmading live from the dome, the heat dome over
the microphone as we're broadcasting live from the Tyraq Dot
com Studios. Tyract dot com will help you get there
in unmatched selection, fast free shipping, free road hazard protection,
(01:39):
and over ten thousand recommended it installers. Calligan, Tim and
Michigan's counting that high right now. Tyre raq dot com
the way tire buying.
Speaker 2 (01:49):
Shoe be in our lead.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
This hour from broadcasting one oh one. He might think
the weekend's coming gone here we move on to what's next.
But we had a rather large dump news dump, not
a real dump that might have been a real dump,
a rather large news dump that happened in our little
(02:13):
world on Friday night after the Dallas basketball team electrocuted
the Boston basketball team in a random game. As the
Mavericks were making an omelet out of the Shamrocks, they
were doing the Shamrock Shake, the round mound of rebound
and gas Baggerie.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
He dropped some info and it seemed like kind of
a big deal.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
Got a fair amount of attention, but it was over
the weekend, and so here we are left to pick
up the pieces as we're hanging out together on this
this money. But if you didn't see it, Charles Barkley
revealed in the late night hours when very few people
are watching that he has had conversations with multiple TV networks,
(03:00):
but he is not, I repeat, not leaving TNT. Instead,
Barkley claimed that he will play out next season, even
though it's not the final year on his contract. He'll
play out next season. Then he will retire. He'll hang
up the microphone after what will be twenty five years
of commentary on NBA games for Turner, Barkley claiming that
(03:24):
he will exit stage left just when Ernie Johnson leaves
as well.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
And that's it. That's turn out. The last the parties over.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
So let us discuss the question how likely is Charles
Barkley to actually do it. It's one thing to say
you're going to do it, but how likely is Charles
Barkley to actually retire from broadcasting NBA games. So I've
got Ozzy Osbourne, horse play and drawing class, and we
(03:53):
will combine all of these things together and we are
going to make a long walk to the vending machine,
which Eddie Garcia is doing right now. What will he
buy from the vending machine? Will he buy candy? Will
he buy chips? What will Eddie buy? I don't know,
maybe soda, possibly a carbonated beverage will find out. But
Eddie is on his way right now to the vending machine.
(04:14):
We can report to all the affiliates down the line.
Speaker 2 (04:17):
So number what.
Speaker 1 (04:22):
So answer the question how likely is Charles Barkley to
retire from broadcasting? He is not going anywhere. He is
not going anywhere, And I'm never wrong about these things.
I am a distant relative of Redama's friend of Nostradina's.
Charles Barkley is full of pooh when it comes to this.
He's not retiring. He's not retiring tomorrow. The day after
(04:43):
he's not retired, they're gonna have to rip the earpiece
and the microphone.
Speaker 2 (04:48):
Out of his wardrobe.
Speaker 1 (04:50):
Do you understand, okay, Charles bok I'll tell you why
Barkley loves being Charles Barkley. You can't beat Charles Barkley
with the same viomen if you are not broadcasting NBA games.
Now I get it. This is an emotional time. Charles
Barkley is really upset with the NBA. He's upset with
Turner and all the muckety MUCKs, all the big wigs,
(05:13):
the money people who could not figure out a compromise.
And they've been at Loggerheads for months and it didn't
work out, and Charles Barkley wants the status quo. He
wants to keep the band together. He and Kenny Smith
and Ernie Johnson and Shaquille O'Neil and all the production
staff to put the show together behind the scenes, to
make the magic on television. He wants that it ain't happening.
(05:34):
He knows it and I know it. So we pivot.
We advanced the story. TNT was out bit they did
not meet the price. They were given the opportunity to
match from what we were told, but Amazon and BC
they ended up coming up with more money. So Charles
(05:54):
Barkley right now is doing something that he often does.
He's speaking in puffer, is what he's doing. I remember
Charles Barkley said he was going to become the governor
of the state of Alabama. And also Barkley said he
was going to retire. Nobody wanted to hear somebody give
takes when they're past the age of sixty. Well, Barkley's
passed the age of sixty. He's still giving takes. He's
(06:15):
still giving takes. But Barkley's acting like Ozzy Osborne. I
remember years ago I've been famous musician. At the time
Ozzy Osbourne announced his retirement in nineteen ninety two, he said,
that's it. I'm done. I have a nice house, I
have a nice car. I don't see it in my house.
I don't get to see my car. I'm retired and
I'm tired of being on the road. I'm not going
(06:36):
to perform on the road anymore, Ozzy Osborne said, And
then he quickly changed his mind because he realized retirement sucks,
and it wasn't too long before he started back on
the road. Right and Charles Barkley, he's already got one
foot in leisure world, right, TN T TNT work. It's
(06:58):
like you're kind of retired any It's like a part
time job, you know. It's like people in my family
get a job at like the Walmart, you know, san
Hello to people, or Costco on the weekends, a little
part time work there. That's essentially what Charles Barkley. It's
not like he doesn't watch the games, doesn't and I
don't want him to. Barkley is there for comedic relief.
(07:20):
He's there to bust balls. That's what he does. And
the other Comodo Dragon in the room when it comes
to Charles Barkley. Even if you think I'm wrong, and
you say, well, Barkley, he can beat Charles Barkley without
being on television. Even if you think I'm wrong on
that take, I promise you that I'm not wrong about
my other take. And the main reason that Charles Barkley
(07:40):
cannot walk away from broadcasting he has a major gambling addiction.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
And it's only.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
A problem when you don't win, which, by the way,
you don't, You just consistently do not win. And so
Charles Barkley is a prolific gambler. And from what I've
been told, unless I got bad information, it's not like
he's slowed down. He's still doing the stuff he's been
doing here, and the money he makes from broadcasting these
(08:10):
games on TNT and all the other stuff that he does,
the commercials that helps cover the stench of the gambling losses.
So he ain't gonna go anywhere cause unless he stops gambling.
And there's a better chance, there's a better chance that
we have a peace in the world than Charles Barkley
(08:33):
stops camping. Okay, page two. Here to the coaching carousel,
we go round and round and round and round the
coaching carousel. Noted podcaster and pompous a hold JJ Reddick
interviewed for the Laker coaching job over the weekend. What
chance do you give JJ Reddick of getting the big
(08:54):
chair in Lakerland?
Speaker 2 (08:57):
So malor sportsbook.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
Odds on JJ Reddick, I have the odds at minus
eight hundred. They hire a podcaster to coach the team,
there is an eighty percent chance, eighty percent chance that
this happens. And here's why. Okay, it is horseplay. What's
going on there? The Lakers have a tightwad owner, Jeanie Boss.
They've got skinny jeans Rob Polenka, who doesn't know what
(09:20):
he's doing as the GM even though he's he's really
the GM by proxy. Lebron's the real GM and he's
just kind of fill in the chair. But that aside,
are that aside? This is horseplay because JJ Reddick is
the chalk horse at this point, and back before computers
at the track, they would write the favorite there in
(09:41):
chalk at the very top the term chalk horse.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
That's what that means.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
But anyway, that's Lebron's handpicked preferred option at coach. It's
a package deal the Lakers. From when I've heard from
people over there in Lakerland, they're so paranoid that Lebron's
gonna leave that whatever Lebron wants, they're going to do
to pacify within reason when it comes to the coach
and things like that. And so all you have to
do is hire his pompous a hole schmucky podcast partner, okay,
(10:10):
and then Lebrono will stay and all those idiots in
Hollywood will keep buying everything. But I don't get that.
Here's why, Like the Lakers have, they don't have fans,
they have his stories. They're idiots, right, and they'll buy
those tickets and luxury boxes and all that, no matter
how embarrassing the product is on the court.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
So what's the point. I don't get that part of it.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
But they are convinced they have to keep everything together
and all that stuff. And man, well the key thing now,
the finals will end on Monday night tonight, so that'll
be done, so Redik will be free to be hired
as Laker coach by the end of the week. I
would assume he'll be hired by the end of the week.
Keep an eye on the usual idiots, the useful idiots
(10:50):
in the media that the Lakers plant stories to and
they feed stories about what we see more propaganda about
JJ Reddick being you know, great at this, that and
the other thing. Modern marvel of coaching, right prodigy pat
Riley like, are those stories gonna pop up?
Speaker 2 (11:06):
Stay tuned, all right?
Speaker 1 (11:07):
Final point, We are now, believe it or not, nine days.
Oh wait, we are nine days away from the draft.
Can you feel the buzz in the air. No, there's
no buzz. There's no buzz in the air. The Atlanta
Hawks are on the board. The Atlanta Hawks are on
the clock. They have the first pick in the twenty
(11:28):
twenty four NBA Draft. Everyone is focused on a player
who shouldn't even be drafted.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
The spawn of bron.
Speaker 1 (11:36):
Is what we're talking about here now, Scrownie Bronni James again.
The focus over the weekend. The story a couple weeks
back was the Bron's kid was only gonna work out
for the Lakers and Suns. And then the agent's like, well, nah,
there's been some other teams he works out for. Well,
after meeting with La and Phoenix, it turns out that's
(11:57):
all she wrote. According to the agent, Why is Bronnie James.
Why is Bronnie James unlikely to work out after initially
saying no and then saying yes his agent. Why is
Bronnie James unlikely to work out for any other teams
after visiting the Lakers and the Suns? And so this
(12:18):
is drawing class is what This is, the little drawing class.
It is the family business. We know how this works.
It's the family business. Here father son Combo Lebron talked
about this years ago. He wants it to happen. Why
wouldn't he want it to happen? It makes sense? Why
would you not want that to happen? And Lebron though,
he's the one calling the shots here, not the agent.
(12:39):
Come on, Lebron's the one calling the shots. And this
is an audible audible audible omaha, omaha, omaha. Or in
this case, Scottsdale, Scottsdale, Scottsdale.
Speaker 2 (12:49):
That's it.
Speaker 1 (12:50):
They're redrawing the district it's drawing class, and they're redrawing
the districts. It's market manipulation. It's wild that this is
actually happening when you consider that Scrownie Bronni averaged less
than five points a game on a bad sc basketball
team the old Pac twelve conference, back when that was
(13:13):
the thing. I'm barely remember that when that was around,
and Scrownie Bronny was a backup on a sub five
hundred basketball team. And yet he's the one we're to
believe that is deciding where he will play and where
he will not play.
Speaker 2 (13:26):
And watch Lebron right if the.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
Sun's end up taking him, I could see Lebron saying, Okay,
you know that's a forty five minute flight from Sky
Harbor Airport in Phoenix to the Van Eys Airport where
all the rich people fly into LA and don't fly
to Lax because why would you fly into Lax.
Speaker 2 (13:43):
If you got money, you don't have to fly into Lax.
So keep an eye on it.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
It is the Ben Mahler Show if you'd like to
comment on any of this. Also, the epic choke job
in North Carolina at the US Open has Roy McElroy.
I'll gago and then it'll take off. Oh and leaving

all that. Now he was gone. He was out of

until like I'm sixty four or something like that, and
I'm done. Oh, I have no plan. I keep talking.
What would you retire from a job like this is
an easy job. I mean, it's you know, all you
have to do show up, which, by the way, Coop didn't.
By the way, but thanks to Patrick who is here
(16:34):
doing a great job. And I know that's the worst
when you the guy that's supposed to be here, doesn't
show up and then Patrick has to stay and hang around.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
You probably had plans, Patrick.
Speaker 1 (16:42):
You were supposed to do something or I mean the
only extra plan was maybe an extra hour slate.
Speaker 5 (16:47):
But hey, you know what sleeps for the week.
Speaker 2 (16:49):
I'm here.
Speaker 5 (16:49):

You really had no choice, right, I mean you were
told to stay.
Speaker 8 (16:58):
I mean honestly, and I mean listen, if I'm gonna
be staying, a little extra were better than staying with
you guys.
Speaker 2 (17:07):
You missed a spot. I think you missed that. See
that's respect right there from Patrick. You guys are entertaining.
I like it, all right. Mark de Walker says, replace
your tires already.
Speaker 5 (17:16):
All right?
Speaker 1 (17:17):
Fine, Brian says, Celtics better get it done tonight and
clinch at home, or these Mallard clone Boston fans will
riot and turn on each other and be quite the
site there and be everything's fine. Yeah, because fans never
fight after drinking for three hours. They never fight the show.
King Rory rights and says, how I see it, Charles
(17:39):
Barkley has two choices. He joined the NHL on TNT broadcast.
Yeah and boost the ratings, say yeah, you know he
loves hockey and all that, it says, boost the ratings,
says King Rory with comedy relief or just like Ozzie
Star in his own reality show. I think those are
still a thing. Who wouldn't want to watch which Barkley
(18:00):
live his daily life? Well, Charles Barkley would not want that.
Why would Barkley want that?
Speaker 2 (18:06):
No way, So we not. Let's go on the phones
and we'll say hello to let's hear ee miney Moe.
Let's pick a call.
Speaker 1 (18:14):
Let's say hello to weed Man, Hippie, who's back. He
was not there talking about not showing up to work.
Weed Man, we're not paying you for last week. Weed
Man in Miami.
Speaker 2 (18:26):
We're not paying it.
Speaker 9 (18:26):
So I'm so sorry I was in jail.
Speaker 2 (18:30):
Not again.
Speaker 9 (18:32):
Unbelievable.
Speaker 2 (18:33):
You know what, what what what happened? What were you
in jail for this time.
Speaker 9 (18:37):
We're sleeping exactly where I've been sleeping for a year.
Speaker 1 (18:42):
So all of a sudden they decided that that's it,
we got to send you to the to the jail.
Speaker 9 (18:47):
Unbelievable, unbelievable. Like, I'm wow, man, you know where I
am now? I'm literally on the beach.
Speaker 1 (18:55):
Okay, well, some people would say that's a great place
to sleep. You're sleeping on the beach. It's right there
in Miami, beautiful real estate right there.
Speaker 9 (19:03):
Yeah, no, it's really really nice and wet.
Speaker 7 (19:08):
Man.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
If you got to go to the bathroom, you just
top in the ocean. Boom, you got a toilet right there.
You're ready to go. I for the oh.
Speaker 1 (19:19):
I called you, and I kept calling you, and I thought,
but what a loser I am. I'm calling this guy
up and he's not answering his phone. I thought maybe
your phone had gotten stolen again. I didn't know what
had happened. But but there you are, Okay, all right,
it's fine. Try, it's not your fault.
Speaker 2 (19:32):
Weat man.
Speaker 1 (19:32):
Just try. You know, you don't have anywhere to go.
You're you're not like you're you're not trying to cause problems. Right,
you're just trying to live your life.
Speaker 9 (19:38):
Oh man, I know you really are.
Speaker 1 (19:42):
Celtics man, right, longtime SEALTI fan, clearly, Yeah, I know.
Speaker 9 (19:47):
Good for you, Good for you.
Speaker 1 (19:50):
I want to be wait toten the way I look
at these things, weed, Man, I'm a Clipper fan, but
I look at these things. I don't hate the Celtics obviously.
I like them because it annoys Laker historians. When the
Celtics win, the Laker historians get all upset, and I
like that them getting all ruffled and all that.
Speaker 2 (20:04):
They get annoyed, and you know it's not right. You
stay at jail at least Thursday and a Friday. Can
you stay at jail possible?
Speaker 9 (20:12):
Yeah? Yeah, I'll definitely be here for joke.
Speaker 1 (20:16):
You know, if you got if you get arrested, tell
the guard whoever's at the jail, just tell them to
have your call.
Speaker 2 (20:21):
In anyway, and just how to use the jail phone.
Speaker 9 (20:23):
Okay, that would work out, That would really work out?
Speaker 2 (20:26):
Sure? That mean that'd be fun. How's the food in jail?
Is the food all right?
Speaker 9 (20:31):
Oh? Oh terrible? Everything's terrible.
Speaker 2 (20:35):
You don't have to pay for it though, it's free,
right they give you free food.
Speaker 9 (20:38):
That's true, that's true.
Speaker 4 (20:40):
You can eat.
Speaker 2 (20:42):
Have you complained?
Speaker 1 (20:42):
We bet if you said you'd like better food, if
you said, listen, I'd like I'd like a steak.
Speaker 2 (20:46):
I don't know why you're giving me this slop.
Speaker 9 (20:50):
And you know, Ben what you know Bron James screw him?
Speaker 2 (20:57):
Well you can't. I won't. But if you want more
power to you, you know.
Speaker 9 (21:03):
I mean, he goes to La. He turns his back
on Miami. It's like, hey.
Speaker 1 (21:11):
We man, I gotta tell you. I think you do
better homeless in LA. I don't think LA cares about
any of the homeless year. They let you do whatever
you want. In Miami seems to be cracking down on
the homes. I think you should move to LA. They'll
get you like a place to stay, like on the
street or something like that. I mean, you can, you
can try Venice Beach. How about that.
Speaker 9 (21:28):
Weed, man, that would be great. They really are kicking
people out of Miami. They don't want homeless people here.
Speaker 1 (21:35):
Yeah, I saw shocking that city would not want homeless
people in their town.
Speaker 2 (21:40):
What kind of leadership is that? My god? You know what,
I love it. He's got such a great sense of humor.
The guy's been how long you've been homeless? Weed man?
How man? How many years you been homeless?
Speaker 10 (21:54):
A long time?
Speaker 2 (21:54):
I don't know, yeah, a long time, long time. You
still laugh that you got your sense of humor. I
love that about you. Yeah, I love you. All right,
hanging there, we men, don't go back to jail. Okay,
thank you?
Speaker 1 (22:05):
All right, I'll hang up, go away all right. You
imagine that they're trying to crack down a home. It's
just come to California. It's whatever you want.
Speaker 2 (22:14):
You're good to go, Good to go.
Speaker 1 (22:16):
Art Puffin Rights Sin says, the whole JJ Redass situation
is annoying and it's just another part of Lebron's circus,
Extravag's poop show. I'm ashamed at the Laker Keystone Cop
front office for the handling of this off season. Bring
back Phil Hire, Charles Barkley, anyone but red Ass.
Speaker 2 (22:37):
Phil living like a shack in Montana or something? Phil Jackson.

the grid, there, Phil Jackson, it is the Ben Mauch Show.

and all of a sudden in the middle of the game,
we get interrupted because Hall of Fame running back. He
never did find a real killers, by the way, Oh J.
Speaker 1 (23:39):
Simpson decided that's not true, Big Sean.

your life, right, this was I remember blew me.
Speaker 2 (24:16):
Wait, but you have an NBA Finals game.
Speaker 1 (24:18):
And you do the boxing box. What's up with that?
You can't do the boxing box. They did the boxing box,
and they did.
Speaker 10 (24:23):
The boxing box. We didn't have phones, we had no cellular.
The bike back then in the old school box in
the box.
Speaker 1 (24:29):
I know, it's not right what they did to us.
They made us watch the basketball in the small box
and the OJ Chase was on the big box.
Speaker 2 (24:34):
Were part of that.
Speaker 5 (24:35):
It's not all right, but there was more than the
basketball game though.
Speaker 2 (24:39):
Well you hate basketball, Eddie, So that's.

Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Meller
Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific.
Speaker 5 (26:39):
Back to Baseball.
Speaker 7 (26:40):
Probably don't remember this unless you're an Astros fan, but
pitcher Renel Blanco threw a no hitter earlier this season. Well, Sunday,
he had a no note through seven innings and they
pulled him out of the game after ninety four pitches.
Speaker 1 (26:52):
Yes, baseball, Big Baseball has determined they know how to
prevent injuries, and yet yeah, they all get hurt.
Speaker 2 (26:57):
Anyway, what's the point. It's so stupid.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
It is He's are the disposed of the smartest of
the smart the people in baseball, and they are complete
dufices when it comes to this. And all the old timers.
Speaker 2 (27:10):
You're just a boomer. You don't know what you're doing.
Speaker 1 (27:13):
They every one of them I've talked to over this,
they all said, you got to throw the more, not less,
don't cut, don't limit things, and they do, and it's
so ridiculous. So they limit the innings, they limit the appearances,
and they still get hurt.
Speaker 2 (27:25):
So what are you accomplishing teams?
Speaker 7 (27:27):
I'm not that smart, Eddie, nothing, okay, but in the
process they're also you know, like ruining the baseball. Could
have got some headlines today if he throws another no hitter.
Dave Roberts does this all the time. Clayton Kershaw.
Speaker 1 (27:39):
Remember Kershaw was ing a perfect game against the Twins,
and we gotta sell, we gotta protect him, and we've
been selfish to throw a perfect game only for him
to get hurt anyway and the Dodgers to lose in
the first round of the playoffs. But we saved Kershaw.
Speaker 2 (27:56):
Idiots not fun at all, No, but this is fun.
Fun fact. Are you familiar with a player by the
name of Royce Lewis? You know who that is?
Speaker 5 (28:07):
Former Royce Lewis.
Speaker 10 (28:10):
Never heard him?
Speaker 1 (28:11):
No, he was a former number one overall pick. Bad
knowledge on the Minnesota Twins. By the way, he's plays
for the Minnesota Twins.
Speaker 5 (28:18):
I remember Royce Clayton.
Speaker 2 (28:20):
I remember him too because I'm old.
Speaker 5 (28:21):
I remember Darren Lewis.
Speaker 1 (28:23):
So Royce Lewis is a third baseman for the Minnesota Twins.
He has now played eighty one career games in the
Twin Cities. And he is his on pace numbers now,
Eddie after eighty one games, number one overall, pick his
on pace average one hundred. Over one hundred and sixty
two games, he'd averaged forty six home runs, one hundred
(28:45):
and thirty two runs batted in, and a three eighteen
batting average hundred and two runs scored. Guys, good player.
I don't know what those uniforms were the twins were
wearing on Sunday. I guess that's some City Connect puke
that they were wearing.
Speaker 2 (28:59):
But it was ugly. But this guy's a total stud.
Robbie the Mariner fan.
Speaker 1 (29:03):
Says Patrick, just don't say you know everything about the
show's history and then get quizzed on it and you'll
be fine.
Speaker 2 (29:12):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (29:12):
I vaguely remember there was somebody that is that attempted
that and said what a big fan of they were
of the show, and then I asked five questions and
didn't did not get one right.
Speaker 5 (29:22):
Well after that, we've asked Patrick to leave it.
Speaker 2 (29:25):
It was on. It was unfortunate. Patrick has has exited
the building. He's now free to go to bed DJ's
DJ Spin in San Diego says he's enjoying the fifth
hour podcast.
Speaker 1 (29:40):
Well think I was down San Diego away kind of
del Marstall, as you know, del Marstial about twenty five
thirty miles north of San Diego proper. But every time
I drive to San Diego in that direction, I look
at the street signs and for the different towns, and
I remember Hacksaw, who I interned for, and I think
he just drove down and wrote down all the names
(30:02):
like Cardiff by the Sea, in all the little towns
on the way from LA to San Diego, and he
just all right, let's call the phones, let's say hello
to I think this is Mark, the full name guy,
but it says Mark from Oregon, because Patrick's not familiar
with their show.
Speaker 2 (30:22):
Yes you were. You were on my board as Mark
from Oregon.
Speaker 9 (30:27):
You know I'm ready for you to apologize. You don't last.
Speaker 2 (30:31):
Why would Why would I apologize? What if I? What
have I done? It's worthy of that? There's no need
for an apology?
Speaker 5 (30:36):
Did something that was worthy and apology? He's not gonna.
Speaker 1 (30:38):
Why would I apology? There's nothing I did that's worthy
of an apology.
Speaker 2 (30:41):
Certainly not to you.
Speaker 9 (30:45):
Oh, certainly not.
Speaker 4 (30:46):
You mean.

Speaker 1 (31:29):
We we cut off the sound effects just for you
to call me a schmuck?
Speaker 2 (31:32):
What are you getting?
Speaker 5 (31:35):
Did you hang up?
Speaker 2 (31:36):
I think he? I think he's gone.
Speaker 5 (31:37):
Did we ever figure out what he was about?
Speaker 8 (31:40):
No?
Speaker 2 (31:41):
He very so he went to the dentist.
Speaker 1 (31:44):
Office, has four four teeth pulled out, and then we
don't know the rest of it because we played funny sound.
Speaker 7 (31:51):
Well, apparently you were to blame for him getting his
teeth bowled. It's all your fault, yeah.
Speaker 1 (31:56):
Or the teeth are rotting because of his diet. I
mean that's possible, right, It's conceivable, that's what happens. So
the tabloid's burning up over the weekend here and I
always get my news related to sports from the tabloids
Life and Style.
Speaker 2 (32:10):
You're a big reader of Life and Style. Probably not.

of these others I'm not really familiar. They had a
bunch of names on there. I don't know who those

Speaker 4 (37:02):
This is one big gets grail all right.
Speaker 8 (37:06):
Approval ben former Defensive Player of the Year and former
All Pro Steffan Gilmour. Earlier this offseason, he was talking
about potentially being done with the NFL, retiring, but now
he's saying he's kind of just waiting for the right
opportunity to come his way. Do you think any opportunity
will come his way?
Speaker 2 (37:24):
No, that's what you say when your phone's not ringing.
Speaker 1 (37:27):
In the reality of the situation is if Stefan Gilmour
was of value, he would have had multiple offers. Training
gam starts in a month. NFL teams are mostly shut
down between now and training camp. People go on vacation
this time of the year and then they come back
and they start the season and the whole thing. So no,
I mean, if somebody gets hurt he'll get a call,
but his phones there's no text messages.
Speaker 8 (37:49):
Next, so the Oriderals will only a game and a
half behind the Yankees, but they may be in danger
of losing a third starting pitcher. They put Kyle Bradish
on the il the UCL sprain. Then do you think
they can weather this storm?
Speaker 1 (38:04):
Yes, because the baseball's marginalized starting pitchers. The Dodgers yacht,
they lost Yamamoto over the weekend to another injury. The
Orioles that they got injuries teams. The pitchers are so fragile.
Why would you ever pay any of these guys.
Speaker 2 (38:17):
But yeah, the.
Speaker 1 (38:17):
Oriels, they got a lot of time to go before
the clubs and the trade deadline is in late July,
so you can add more pitching to get hurt.
Speaker 8 (38:24):
Next, So Tiger Wood said he failed to make the
cut at the US Open. He said it may or
may not be his last.
Speaker 2 (38:32):
Is it his last?
Speaker 4 (38:33):
No?
Speaker 1 (38:34):
Because Tiger Woods has to hang around, right, He's got
the lifetime exemption is going to be coming his way,
and they can't disappear.
Speaker 2 (38:41):
He'll be at the majors. How do we go passes?
Speaker 1 (38:43):
That is a way you can put on the
Hello and welcome. It's our num burd too as we
try to avoid the motorized dandruff in our two. Charles
Barkley making some headlines in our little sporting world.
Speaker 2 (00:16):
Probably hurt over the weekend, but maybe not.
Speaker 1 (00:18):
How likely is Charles Barkley to follow through and retire
from NBA broadcasting?
Speaker 2 (00:26):
He said he was going to do it after one
more year.
Speaker 1 (00:28):
JJ Reddick, the podcaster, completed his interview for the Laker job.
What chance do you give him of getting the gig?
We'll talk about that and why is Bronnie James unlikely
to work out for any other teams after visiting the Lakers?
And the Suns will go there as well. It's all
coming your way right now here. It is our number two.
(00:54):
Has the good Time blimp been grounded? Welcome in the
big of another.
Speaker 2 (01:02):
Hour of the Benmather Show.
Speaker 3 (01:04):
We are in the air everywhere, burning the clock as
we take the checkered flag coast to coast, border to border.
Speaker 1 (01:15):
And beyond on the vast and vivaciously powerful microphones of

Michigan's counting that high right now. Tyre raq dot com

Speaker 2 (01:49):
Shoe be in our lead.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
This hour from broadcasting one oh one. He might think
the weekend's coming gone here we move on to what's next.
But we had a rather large dump news dump, not
a real dump that might have been a real dump,
a rather large news dump that happened in our little
(02:13):
world on Friday night after the Dallas basketball team electrocuted
the Boston basketball team in a random game. As the
Mavericks were making an omelet out of the Shamrocks, they
were doing the Shamrock Shake, the round mound of rebound
and gas Baggerie.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
He dropped some info and it seemed like kind of
a big deal.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
Got a fair amount of attention, but it was over
the weekend, and so here we are left to pick
up the pieces as we're hanging out together on this
this money. But if you didn't see it, Charles Barkley
revealed in the late night hours when very few people
are watching that he has had conversations with multiple TV networks,
(03:00):
but he is not, I repeat, not leaving TNT. Instead,
Barkley claimed that he will play out next season, even
though it's not the final year on his contract. He'll
play out next season. Then he will retire. He'll hang
up the microphone after what will be twenty five years
of commentary on NBA games for Turner, Barkley claiming that
(03:24):
he will exit stage left just when Ernie Johnson leaves
as well.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
And that's it. That's turn out. The last the parties over.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
So let us discuss the question how likely is Charles
Barkley to actually do it. It's one thing to say
you're going to do it, but how likely is Charles
Barkley to actually retire from broadcasting NBA games. So I've
got Ozzy Osbourne, horse play and drawing class, and we
(03:53):
will combine all of these things together and we are
going to make a long walk to the vending machine,
which Eddie Garcia is doing right now. What will he
buy from the vending machine? Will he buy candy? Will
he buy chips? What will Eddie buy? I don't know,
maybe soda, possibly a carbonated beverage will find out. But
Eddie is on his way right now to the vending machine.
(04:14):
We can report to all the affiliates down the line.
Speaker 2 (04:17):
So number what.
Speaker 1 (04:22):
So answer the question how likely is Charles Barkley to
retire from broadcasting? He is not going anywhere. He is
not going anywhere, And I'm never wrong about these things.
I am a distant relative of Redama's friend of Nostradina's.
Charles Barkley is full of pooh when it comes to this.
He's not retiring. He's not retiring tomorrow. The day after
(04:43):
he's not retired, they're gonna have to rip the earpiece
and the microphone.
Speaker 2 (04:48):
Out of his wardrobe.
Speaker 1 (04:50):
Do you understand, okay, Charles bok I'll tell you why
Barkley loves being Charles Barkley. You can't beat Charles Barkley
with the same viomen if you are not broadcasting NBA games.
Now I get it. This is an emotional time. Charles
Barkley is really upset with the NBA. He's upset with
Turner and all the muckety MUCKs, all the big wigs,
(05:13):
the money people who could not figure out a compromise.
And they've been at Loggerheads for months and it didn't
work out, and Charles Barkley wants the status quo. He
wants to keep the band together. He and Kenny Smith
and Ernie Johnson and Shaquille O'Neil and all the production
staff to put the show together behind the scenes, to
make the magic on television. He wants that it ain't happening.
(05:34):
He knows it and I know it. So we pivot.
We advanced the story. TNT was out bit they did
not meet the price. They were given the opportunity to
match from what we were told, but Amazon and BC
they ended up coming up with more money. So Charles
(05:54):
Barkley right now is doing something that he often does.
He's speaking in puffer, is what he's doing. I remember
Charles Barkley said he was going to become the governor
of the state of Alabama. And also Barkley said he
was going to retire. Nobody wanted to hear somebody give
takes when they're past the age of sixty. Well, Barkley's
passed the age of sixty. He's still giving takes. He's
(06:15):
still giving takes. But Barkley's acting like Ozzy Osborne. I
remember years ago I've been famous musician. At the time
Ozzy Osbourne announced his retirement in nineteen ninety two, he said,
that's it. I'm done. I have a nice house, I
have a nice car. I don't see it in my house.
I don't get to see my car. I'm retired and
I'm tired of being on the road. I'm not going
(06:36):
to perform on the road anymore, Ozzy Osborne said, And
then he quickly changed his mind because he realized retirement sucks,
and it wasn't too long before he started back on
the road. Right and Charles Barkley, he's already got one
foot in leisure world, right, TN T TNT work. It's
(06:58):
like you're kind of retired any It's like a part
time job, you know. It's like people in my family
get a job at like the Walmart, you know, san
Hello to people, or Costco on the weekends, a little
part time work there. That's essentially what Charles Barkley. It's
not like he doesn't watch the games, doesn't and I
don't want him to. Barkley is there for comedic relief.
(07:20):
He's there to bust balls. That's what he does. And
the other Comodo Dragon in the room when it comes
to Charles Barkley. Even if you think I'm wrong, and
you say, well, Barkley, he can beat Charles Barkley without
being on television. Even if you think I'm wrong on
that take, I promise you that I'm not wrong about
my other take. And the main reason that Charles Barkley
(07:40):
cannot walk away from broadcasting he has a major gambling addiction.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
And it's only.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
A problem when you don't win, which, by the way,
you don't, You just consistently do not win. And so
Charles Barkley is a prolific gambler. And from what I've
been told, unless I got bad information, it's not like
he's slowed down. He's still doing the stuff he's been
doing here, and the money he makes from broadcasting these
(08:10):
games on TNT and all the other stuff that he does,
the commercials that helps cover the stench of the gambling losses.
So he ain't gonna go anywhere cause unless he stops gambling.
And there's a better chance, there's a better chance that
we have a peace in the world than Charles Barkley
(08:33):
stops camping. Okay, page two. Here to the coaching carousel,
we go round and round and round and round the
coaching carousel. Noted podcaster and pompous a hold JJ Reddick
interviewed for the Laker coaching job over the weekend. What
chance do you give JJ Reddick of getting the big
(08:54):
chair in Lakerland?
Speaker 2 (08:57):
So malor sportsbook.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
Odds on JJ Reddick, I have the odds at minus
eight hundred. They hire a podcaster to coach the team,
there is an eighty percent chance, eighty percent chance that
this happens. And here's why. Okay, it is horseplay. What's
going on there? The Lakers have a tightwad owner, Jeanie Boss.
They've got skinny jeans Rob Polenka, who doesn't know what
(09:20):
he's doing as the GM even though he's he's really
the GM by proxy. Lebron's the real GM and he's
just kind of fill in the chair. But that aside,
are that aside? This is horseplay because JJ Reddick is
the chalk horse at this point, and back before computers
at the track, they would write the favorite there in
(09:41):
chalk at the very top the term chalk horse.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
That's what that means.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
But anyway, that's Lebron's handpicked preferred option at coach. It's
a package deal the Lakers. From when I've heard from
people over there in Lakerland, they're so paranoid that Lebron's
gonna leave that whatever Lebron wants, they're going to do
to pacify within reason when it comes to the coach
and things like that. And so all you have to
do is hire his pompous a hole schmucky podcast partner, okay,
(10:10):
and then Lebrono will stay and all those idiots in
Hollywood will keep buying everything. But I don't get that.
Here's why, Like the Lakers have, they don't have fans,
they have his stories. They're idiots, right, and they'll buy
those tickets and luxury boxes and all that, no matter
how embarrassing the product is on the court.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
So what's the point. I don't get that part of it.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
But they are convinced they have to keep everything together
and all that stuff. And man, well the key thing now,
the finals will end on Monday night tonight, so that'll
be done, so Redik will be free to be hired
as Laker coach by the end of the week. I
would assume he'll be hired by the end of the week.
Keep an eye on the usual idiots, the useful idiots
(10:50):
in the media that the Lakers plant stories to and
they feed stories about what we see more propaganda about
JJ Reddick being you know, great at this, that and
the other thing. Modern marvel of coaching, right prodigy pat
Riley like, are those stories gonna pop up?
Speaker 2 (11:06):
Stay tuned, all right?
Speaker 1 (11:07):
Final point, We are now, believe it or not, nine days.
Oh wait, we are nine days away from the draft.
Can you feel the buzz in the air. No, there's
no buzz. There's no buzz in the air. The Atlanta
Hawks are on the board. The Atlanta Hawks are on
the clock. They have the first pick in the twenty
(11:28):
twenty four NBA Draft. Everyone is focused on a player
who shouldn't even be drafted.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
The spawn of bron.
Speaker 1 (11:36):
Is what we're talking about here now, Scrownie Bronni James again.
The focus over the weekend. The story a couple weeks
back was the Bron's kid was only gonna work out
for the Lakers and Suns. And then the agent's like, well, nah,
there's been some other teams he works out for. Well,
after meeting with La and Phoenix, it turns out that's
(11:57):
all she wrote. According to the agent, Why is Bronnie James.
Why is Bronnie James unlikely to work out after initially
saying no and then saying yes his agent. Why is
Bronnie James unlikely to work out for any other teams
after visiting the Lakers and the Suns? And so this
(12:18):
is drawing class is what This is, the little drawing class.
It is the family business. We know how this works.
It's the family business. Here father son Combo Lebron talked
about this years ago. He wants it to happen. Why
wouldn't he want it to happen? It makes sense? Why
would you not want that to happen? And Lebron though,
he's the one calling the shots here, not the agent.
(12:39):
Come on, Lebron's the one calling the shots. And this
is an audible audible audible omaha, omaha, omaha. Or in
this case, Scottsdale, Scottsdale, Scottsdale.
Speaker 2 (12:49):
That's it.
Speaker 1 (12:50):
They're redrawing the district it's drawing class, and they're redrawing
the districts. It's market manipulation. It's wild that this is
actually happening when you consider that Scrownie Bronni averaged less
than five points a game on a bad sc basketball
team the old Pac twelve conference, back when that was
(13:13):
the thing. I'm barely remember that when that was around,
and Scrownie Bronny was a backup on a sub five
hundred basketball team. And yet he's the one we're to
believe that is deciding where he will play and where
he will not play.
Speaker 2 (13:26):
And watch Lebron right if the.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
Sun's end up taking him, I could see Lebron saying, Okay,
you know that's a forty five minute flight from Sky
Harbor Airport in Phoenix to the Van Eys Airport where
all the rich people fly into LA and don't fly
to Lax because why would you fly into Lax.
Speaker 2 (13:43):
If you got money, you don't have to fly into Lax.
So keep an eye on it.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
It is the Ben Mahler Show if you'd like to

What would you retire from a job like this is
an easy job. I mean, it's you know, all you
have to do show up, which, by the way, Coop didn't.
By the way, but thanks to Patrick who is here
(16:34):
doing a great job. And I know that's the worst
when you the guy that's supposed to be here, doesn't
show up and then Patrick has to stay and hang around.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
You probably had plans, Patrick.
Speaker 1 (16:42):
You were supposed to do something or I mean the
only extra plan was maybe an extra hour slate.
Speaker 5 (16:47):
But hey, you know what sleeps for the week.

you guys.
Speaker 2 (17:07):

Fine, Brian says, Celtics better get it done tonight and
clinch at home, or these Mallard clone Boston fans will
riot and turn on each other and be quite the
site there and be everything's fine. Yeah, because fans never

(17:39):
Barkley has two choices. He joined the NHL on TNT broadcast.
Yeah and boost the ratings, say yeah, you know he
loves hockey and all that, it says, boost the ratings,
says King Rory with comedy relief or just like Ozzie
Star in his own reality show. I think those are
still a thing. Who wouldn't want to watch which Barkley
(18:00):
live his daily life? Well, Charles Barkley would not want that.
Why would Barkley want that?
Speaker 2 (18:06):
No way, So we not. Let's go on the phones
and we'll say hello to let's hear ee miney Moe.
Let's pick a call.
Speaker 1 (18:14):
Let's say hello to weed Man, Hippie, who's back. He
was not there talking about not showing up to work.
Weed Man, we're not paying you for last week. Weed
Man in Miami.
Speaker 2 (18:26):
We're not paying it.
Speaker 9 (18:26):
So I'm so sorry I was in jail.
Speaker 2 (18:30):
Not again.
Speaker 9 (18:32):
Unbelievable.
Speaker 2 (18:33):
You know what, what what what happened? What were you
in jail for this time.
Speaker 9 (18:37):
We're sleeping exactly where I've been sleeping for a year.
Speaker 1 (18:42):
So all of a sudden they decided that that's it,
we got to send you to the to the jail.
Speaker 9 (18:47):
Unbelievable, unbelievable. Like, I'm wow, man, you know where I
am now? I'm literally on the beach.
Speaker 1 (18:55):
Okay, well, some people would say that's a great place
to sleep. You're sleeping on the beach. It's right there
in Miami, beautiful real estate right there.
Speaker 9 (19:03):
Yeah, no, it's really really nice and wet.
Speaker 7 (19:08):
Man.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
If you got to go to the bathroom, you just
top in the ocean. Boom, you got a toilet right there.
You're ready to go. I for the oh.
Speaker 1 (19:19):
I called you, and I kept calling you, and I thought,
but what a loser I am. I'm calling this guy
up and he's not answering his phone. I thought maybe
your phone had gotten stolen again. I didn't know what
had happened. But but there you are, Okay, all right,
it's fine. Try, it's not your fault.
Speaker 2 (19:32):
Weat man.

Speaker 1 (19:50):
I want to be wait toten the way I look
at these things, weed, Man, I'm a Clipper fan, but
I look at these things. I don't hate the Celtics obviously.
I like them because it annoys Laker historians. When the
Celtics win, the Laker historians get all upset, and I
like that them getting all ruffled and all that.
Speaker 2 (20:04):
They get annoyed, and you know it's not right. You
stay at jail at least Thursday and a Friday. Can
you stay at jail possible?
Speaker 9 (20:12):
Yeah? Yeah, I'll definitely be here for joke.
Speaker 1 (20:16):
You know, if you got if you get arrested, tell
the guard whoever's at the jail, just tell them to
have your call.
Speaker 2 (20:21):
In anyway, and just how to use the jail phone.
Speaker 9 (20:23):
Okay, that would work out, That would really work out?
Speaker 2 (20:26):
Sure? That mean that'd be fun. How's the food in jail?
Is the food all right?
Speaker 9 (20:31):
Oh? Oh terrible? Everything's terrible.
Speaker 2 (20:35):
You don't have to pay for it though, it's free,
right they give you free food.
Speaker 9 (20:38):
That's true, that's true.
Speaker 4 (20:40):
You can eat.
Speaker 2 (20:42):
Have you complained?
Speaker 1 (20:42):
We bet if you said you'd like better food, if
you said, listen, I'd like I'd like a steak.
Speaker 2 (20:46):
I don't know why you're giving me this slop.
Speaker 9 (20:50):
And you know, Ben what you know Bron James screw him?
Speaker 2 (20:57):
Well you can't. I won't. But if you want more
power to you, you know.
Speaker 9 (21:03):
I mean, he goes to La. He turns his back
on Miami. It's like, hey.
Speaker 1 (21:11):
We man, I gotta tell you. I think you do
better homeless in LA. I don't think LA cares about
any of the homeless year. They let you do whatever
you want. In Miami seems to be cracking down on
the homes. I think you should move to LA. They'll
get you like a place to stay, like on the
street or something like that. I mean, you can, you
can try Venice Beach. How about that.
Speaker 9 (21:28):
Weed, man, that would be great. They really are kicking
people out of Miami. They don't want homeless people here.
Speaker 1 (21:35):
Yeah, I saw shocking that city would not want homeless
people in their town.
Speaker 2 (21:40):
What kind of leadership is that? My god? You know what,
I love it. He's got such a great sense of humor.
The guy's been how long you've been homeless? Weed man?
How man? How many years you been homeless?
Speaker 10 (21:54):
A long time?
Speaker 2 (21:54):
I don't know, yeah, a long time, long time. You
still laugh that you got your sense of humor. I
love that about you. Yeah, I love you. All right,
hanging there, we men, don't go back to jail. Okay,
thank you?
Speaker 1 (22:05):
All right, I'll hang up, go away all right. You
imagine that they're trying to crack down a home. It's
just come to California. It's whatever you want.
Speaker 2 (22:14):
You're good to go, Good to go.
Speaker 1 (22:16):

Speaker 4 (26:33):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Meller
Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific.
Speaker 5 (26:39):
Back to Baseball.
Speaker 7 (26:40):
Probably don't remember this unless you're an Astros fan, but
pitcher Renel Blanco threw a no hitter earlier this season. Well, Sunday,
he had a no note through seven innings and they
pulled him out of the game after ninety four pitches.
Speaker 1 (26:52):
Yes, baseball, Big Baseball has determined they know how to
prevent injuries, and yet yeah, they all get hurt.
Speaker 2 (26:57):
Anyway, what's the point. It's so stupid.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
It is He's are the disposed of the smartest of
the smart the people in baseball, and they are complete
dufices when it comes to this. And all the old timers.
Speaker 2 (27:10):
You're just a boomer. You don't know what you're doing.
Speaker 1 (27:13):
They every one of them I've talked to over this,
they all said, you got to throw the more, not less,
don't cut, don't limit things, and they do, and it's
so ridiculous. So they limit the innings, they limit the appearances,
and they still get hurt.
Speaker 2 (27:25):
So what are you accomplishing teams?
Speaker 7 (27:27):
I'm not that smart, Eddie, nothing, okay, but in the
process they're also you know, like ruining the baseball. Could
have got some headlines today if he throws another no hitter.
Dave Roberts does this all the time. Clayton Kershaw.
Speaker 1 (27:39):
Remember Kershaw was ing a perfect game against the Twins,
and we gotta sell, we gotta protect him, and we've
been selfish to throw a perfect game only for him
to get hurt anyway and the Dodgers to lose in
the first round of the playoffs. But we saved Kershaw.
Speaker 2 (27:56):
Idiots not fun at all, No, but this is fun.
Fun fact. Are you familiar with a player by the
name of Royce Lewis? You know who that is?
Speaker 5 (28:07):
Former Royce Lewis.
Speaker 10 (28:10):
Never heard him?
Speaker 1 (28:11):
No, he was a former number one overall pick. Bad
knowledge on the Minnesota Twins. By the way, he's plays
for the Minnesota Twins.
Speaker 5 (28:18):
I remember Royce Clayton.
Speaker 2 (28:20):
I remember him too because I'm old.
Speaker 5 (28:21):
I remember Darren Lewis.
Speaker 1 (28:23):
So Royce Lewis is a third baseman for the Minnesota Twins.
He has now played eighty one career games in the
Twin Cities. And he is his on pace numbers now,
Eddie after eighty one games, number one overall, pick his
on pace average one hundred. Over one hundred and sixty
two games, he'd averaged forty six home runs, one hundred
(28:45):
and thirty two runs batted in, and a three eighteen
batting average hundred and two runs scored. Guys, good player.
I don't know what those uniforms were the twins were
wearing on Sunday. I guess that's some City Connect puke
that they were wearing.
Speaker 2 (28:59):
But it was ugly. But this guy's a total stud.
Robbie the Mariner fan.
Speaker 1 (29:03):
Says Patrick, just don't say you know everything about the
show's history and then get quizzed on it and you'll
be fine.
Speaker 2 (29:12):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (29:12):
I vaguely remember there was somebody that is that attempted
that and said what a big fan of they were
of the show, and then I asked five questions and
didn't did not get one right.
Speaker 5 (29:22):
Well after that, we've asked Patrick to leave it.
Speaker 2 (29:25):
It was on. It was unfortunate. Patrick has has exited
the building. He's now free to go to bed DJ's
DJ Spin in San Diego says he's enjoying the fifth
hour podcast.
Speaker 1 (29:40):
Well think I was down San Diego away kind of
del Marstall, as you know, del Marstial about twenty five
thirty miles north of San Diego proper. But every time
I drive to San Diego in that direction, I look
at the street signs and for the different towns, and
I remember Hacksaw, who I interned for, and I think
he just drove down and wrote down all the names

Approval ben former Defensive Player of the Year and former
All Pro Steffan Gilmour. Earlier this offseason, he was talking
about potentially being done with the NFL, retiring, but now
he's saying he's kind of just waiting for the right
opportunity to come his way. Do you think any opportunity
will come his way?
Speaker 2 (37:24):
No, that's what you say when your phone's not ringing.
Speaker 1 (37:27):
In the reality of the situation is if Stefan Gilmour
was of value, he would have had multiple offers. Training
gam starts in a month. NFL teams are mostly shut
down between now and training camp. People go on vacation
this time of the year and then they come back
and they start the season and the whole thing. So no,

may not be his last.
