Speaker 1 (00:00):
Boom, shaka laka.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
It's our number two. The sound of silence in our
number two Steelers wide receiver DK.
Speaker 1 (00:09):
Metcalf, as we talk about on the Ben Maler Show.
Speaker 2 (00:12):
DK Metcalf keeping his lips sealed on the kerfluffle with
Lions fans of one in particular. Is this an overreaction
or smart silence? As Metcalf is back in Pittsburgh, also,
Colts owner Carly Urs Gordon says, the sense of urgency
for GM Chris Ballard and coach Shane Steichen has never
(00:35):
been higher.
Speaker 1 (00:37):
How do you translate this?
Speaker 2 (00:38):
And speaking of indie, former Colts quarterback Philip Rivers believes
he can be a head coach in the NFL, what
is your read on that situation?
Speaker 1 (00:47):
Will go there as well.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
Right now here, it is clear the way for our
number two. My lips are seal, said one NFL player.

Speaker 1 (02:41):
The crown.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
Is yours, so lead this hour from Western Pa pet
Spurg to be exact, the confluence where the Ohio River
is born. The relationship right there they make they make
sweet love there and the Ohio River is born. So
thanks to the idiot kicker for Baltimore doing the loop
(03:04):
de loop the chip shot field goal which got shanked. Well,
the Black and Yellow, Black and Yellow, Black and Yellow
are in the playoffs, Pittsburgh a.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
Home game on Monday night.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
They'll take on the Houston Texans and the playoff card
there and they're getting their star player back, their offensive dynamo.
Speaker 1 (03:24):
I know you're excited to hear what he had to say. No,
all right, maybe not. We got you.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
So Steelers wide receiver DK Metcalf he is back and
better than ever. Dk Metcalf was away from the team
for a couple of games because he got into a
rhubarb with a Lion fan at Ford Field in Detroit.
Two game suspension served. He is now eligible to return
(03:53):
as the postseason gets going. So what did dk Metcalf
have to say, Well, he get he asked a lot
of questions, he was peppered a lot.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
Of questions, and well here's how he handled the line
of questions.
Speaker 4 (04:05):
Can you explain to us what happened in Detroit.
Speaker 1 (04:07):
You had to be the one to ask him. No,
I can't.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
Was there anything recess like as far as the appeals
and talking with the NFL?
Speaker 5 (04:15):
Just how can you walk us through that process?
Speaker 1 (04:17):
I can't walk out do nothing to happen?
Speaker 6 (04:18):
Were surprised if the appeal was about Yeah, but that's
all I say.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
I respect that you don't and can't really go into
a lot of it.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
Is there anything you would like to clarify about misinformation?
Speaker 6 (04:32):
Right now?
Speaker 1 (04:32):
I can't say nothing about what happened.
Speaker 6 (04:35):
Is that because there's honor.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
I can't say anything about what happened for the fifth time.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
Okay, there, I can't say anything that happened for that
fifth time. Now, metcalf as you heard there, He did
say he was surprised. Later on he said he was
surprised the appeal did not work. His suspension appeal was denied,
and he was upset by that.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
He says, excited to be back, blah blah blah blah
blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. All right, So
that's that's a good jumping off point.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
Let us discuss the question Steelers wide receiver DK Metcalf
kept his lips completely.
Speaker 1 (05:09):
Sealed on his curf fluffel with a Lions fan.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
Is this an overreaction by DK Metcalf or smart silence?
So I've got seagulls, looney Tunes, and leftovers, and we
will combine all of these things together and we're gonna
make mac and cheese. You can't just have mac. You
(05:36):
can't have cheese. But you can't have mac without the cheese.
You gotta have the cheese with the max. We'll have
that all right now.
Speaker 7 (05:42):
Number One, what DK Metcalf did here was he went
to full monastery mode.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
Is what he did? Silent? It was a monk mode
if you want to call it that.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
There a it's not confusion. This was legal counsel legal
we obviously right, I mean, did that not sound like
someone that had a little pow wow with some lawyers
and said, Okay, what can I say? What can I
not say? Well, don't say this that or the other thing.
And if you talk about the do hickey, that'll be
a problem. The thing of a jig and you can't
(06:18):
talk about that. Now, maybe you can talk about to
what you might call it, but probably not. Probably can't
talk about the watch McAll. This is not an overreaction,
all right, not an overreaction. This is calculated silence is
what this was. And this is a guy who has
been handed DK Metcalf the legal version of the red
Challenge flag. And at this point anything he says can
(06:42):
and will be used against him via replay assist. They'll
pull out a dusty VHS machine in the courtroom and
all right, I saw you said this, okay, all right,
when in doubt, I learned this at iHeart College. Win
in doubt, leave it out, win in doubt, leave it out. Important.
Now this smells like lawyers whispering. Yeah, and yeah, they're
(07:06):
whispering sweet nothings into into his ear. DK Metcalf say nothing,
do nothing, sign nothing, think nothing, and then be very careful.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
How you blank blank blank blank blank blank blank.
Speaker 2 (07:21):
Why, Well, it's rather obvious if you you've seen what's
going on here, paid attention, if you've heard what's going
on with the Lions fan. Even Stevie Meatballs knows the
blue haired guy, the Lions fan. Yeah, he's a lawyered up.
And if you look at the clips that are bouncing
around online and all that, he's lawyered up like a
(07:42):
used car salesman with a class action coupon, and he's
he's all about it.
Speaker 1 (07:47):
There.
Speaker 2 (07:48):
Now you've got ambulance chasers who are circling like seagulls
at a landfill.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
Hey, oh this is great.
Speaker 2 (07:58):
And we checked with the opttrist on these lawyers and
the attorneys.
Speaker 1 (08:04):
If you look at their eyes, they're not the blue.
They're not brown. No no, no, no, no.
Speaker 2 (08:11):
They are They look like dollar signs. They're green with
dollar signs right in the eyes there. And so this
isn't about justice. It's not about justice. It's about turning
DK Metcalf's bank account into a penyata, a penyata. So
DK hits the mute button and he saves some of
(08:34):
his four oh one k. He saves that and lives
to fight another down, which is the smart thing.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
It's not fun.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
It'd be much more fun if DK Metcalf came out
O that guy with the blue hair. What a loser,
What a loser that guy was, Oh, my total schmuck.
Douche nozzle. That's his nickname in the locker room, douche nozzle.
He didn't say any of that, right, And so he
saved some money and all that and the silence, and
this case is not weakness.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
It is a.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
Financial defense play, and it is the prevent defense, preventing
the loss of more funds. Now, page two, we go
to Indianapolis, where the owner of the Colts made some headlines.
The question on this one Colts owner. The owner there,
Carle ers Gordon. She's the woman that walked around the
(09:24):
sidelines with the dress on, and she was the smartest
woman in the NFL for the first eight games and
then the dumbest woman in the NFL the final part
of the NFL regular seasons the Colts fell apart. She says,
this is from Colts owner carlely ERSA.
Speaker 1 (09:38):
Gordon.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
She said, this sense of urgency there is now for
GM Chris Bald. There's a big sense of urgency for
Chris bal of the GM and coach Chaine Steichen. It's
never been higher, she said, never been higher. They are
going to keep the Colts, both the GM and the
coach after the historical free fall, the biggest oak job
(10:00):
in NFL history. And so how do you translate this?
How do you translate this? So it reads like alarm bells,
smoke and Colt's chaos. Even who's your bill is concerned
except nobody's really running.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
There's no running.
Speaker 2 (10:19):
Indy is talking tough and this woman Carly Ursa Gordon
talking tough while sitting on the hands. There the smoke
detectives got dead batteries and that's it.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
That's it now.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
The Great General George Patten said that say what you
mean and mean what you say that That was.
Speaker 1 (10:41):
The quote there.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
This cult franchise is it must be something about Indian Like. Look,
I think of the Pacers. I know they were in
the finals last year, but I think of the Pacers
as like the definition of average in the NBA, Like
there were always a round five hundred. They're never that
much over five hundred. They're never that much under five hundred.
It's always like average. And I think the Colts the
same way, Like the Colts are just kind of an
(11:03):
average team. The usually right around eight wins or so.
It seems like they're kind of in that area. And
then that's it, right, They just they keep saying the
right things, the Colts, but doing next to nothing, doing
next to nothing, and its urgency.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
Theater is what it is. It's it's urgency theater.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
High School drama club stuff is what You've got a
lot of Shakespearean level drama.
Speaker 1 (11:31):
And early in the.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
Year they were there, they flirted with relevance. The Indianapolis Colts.
They had Daniel Jones who looked like he had dropped
down manna from heaven. And then at one moment he
woke up and realized, wait a minute, my name is
Daniel Jones. I'm a Mama luke. And he started playing like, well,
(11:55):
Daniel Jones a Mama luke.
Speaker 1 (11:57):
And then he got hurt, and the.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
Injuries piled up, and the the Colts like a bad
nineteen eighties comedy, They called up Philip Rivers in the
Boon Docks and said, hey, how would you like to
play quarterback for the Colts?
Speaker 1 (12:09):
He said, ah, sure, why not? Why not? What the hell?
Speaker 2 (12:14):
So that all went down and the Colts did this
cartoon barrel roll right off the cliff think Looney Tunes,
the y League Coyote pause and then splat just like that,
and Shane Stiken plausibly higher to make sure that didn't happen.
(12:36):
Shane Styken could not stop it, couldn't do it. No parachute,
no soft landing, no eject button.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
They went right in there.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
That was a Kamakazi mission to close out the ear
and just a lot of crush dreams and broken hearts
and scattered all over the turf there, And what a
choke job that was. INDI's operating manual for the Colts
now reads like the classic Marine slogan embraced suck. Shane
Steikeen a losing record as a head coach in Indianapolis.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
Ballard the GM.
Speaker 2 (13:06):
His teams have averaged seven and a half wins per
year and he's been there a while. That's not exactly progress.
That is the treadmill of mediocrity is what that is.
And then you look at Shane Steichen a little deeper.
He's coached twenty two games against teams that are above
five hundred and lost seventeen of the twenty two. I
(13:27):
don't think that's good, but what do I know. I
just do the Overnight show, and two of ten against
divisional opponents I believe is Shane Steichen's record. I saw
that number bouncing around, and yet nobody is losing their job.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
But we're gonna have more urgency. That's what we're gonna do.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
Yeah, the only plausible explanation for the GM ballard keeping
his job is that he's got some incriminating photos of
certain people with zoo animals. And that's about it. But
we thought that might be Jim Mercy, but he's not
around anymore. Must be somebody else.
Speaker 1 (14:02):
It's hr approved concern, is what it is all right now.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
Final point staying with the horseshoes, and we mentioned Philip
Rivers coming out of the backwoods and going zero to
three as the Colts quarterback. Well, Philip Rivers says that
he could, that's what we is the word could be
a head coach in the NFL someday, just not right now.
He is returning to Alabama and he'll hang out there
(14:26):
coach his son, one of his many kids in his
senior year, and then that's it. After that, who knows,
who knows what he will be doing, but he will not.
He will not be doing that after next year, most likely.
And so he's talking about being a head coach. But
he is back in the you know, off the Winter
(14:46):
Muckle Road, if you will, If that went all the
way down to a suburb, it's actually a suburb of mobile.
It's in this nice looking bay which is really nice
until the big storms come in. The probably looks so
nice anymore. All right, So the question former Colts quarterback
Philip Rivers, the guy with the Bolo tie, believes he
can be a head coach in the NFL. What's your
(15:10):
read on this, sitch Way, Shannon, that's the question. So
did anyone, by the way, expect Philip Rivers to come
out and say, oh, no, I can't coach in the NFL.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
Those guys are so good, they are so good.
Speaker 2 (15:21):
I couldn't handle it. I can't do it. Na, I'm
not good enough, of course not. This is classic Jack
Hubris is what this is. Former players never think the
latter's too high.
Speaker 1 (15:33):
They never do.
Speaker 2 (15:34):
They think it's broken and they should be allowed to
jump the line. And I gotta tell you there have
been some real dumb dums who have been head coaches
in the NFL.
Speaker 1 (15:43):
I'm not that bright. I think I could do the job.
I don't know much. I believe that.
Speaker 2 (15:49):
There's so many bad coaches in the NFL. It's wild,
it really is. And so whether or not you jump
in line or not, I mean, the coaching pipeline is
a mess.
Speaker 1 (16:01):
It is a hot mess. Here.
Speaker 2 (16:02):
You see the same assistance Robert Salah, who failed miserably
with the Jets, is up for.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
Coaching jobs again. Brian Floores who failed with the Dolphins.
Speaker 2 (16:12):
Stefanski who just the body's not even cold yet after
he sucked with the Browns.
Speaker 1 (16:17):
His name's being floated around. It's the same names.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
It's the recycled resumes, same flotsam and jets them that
get recycled. Here the teams higher, the normal higher. Well,
he's got the nice resume and all that stuff, and
you end up getting these rather blob results. Vanilla ice
cream results is what you get. And it's running on fumes,
(16:40):
running on fumes like a lawnmower, and you yanking the cord,
praying it turns on and it is not turning on
and all that stuff, and so you see it. The assistance,
the buzzwords are the same. The stale bubblegum is what
it is under the desk and rivers. He would certainly
(17:02):
be different. It would be non traditional, It would be
unconventional to go that direction. Coloring outside the lines, which
can be good everyone so on, not with crayon using
a sharpie, got to use that sharpie coloring outside the lines,
And is anything intimate no, it's a thought.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
You file the thought away, and.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
Then a year from now, it's Philip Rivers calling people
up saying, hey, how would you like to have Philip
Rivers as the head coach.
Speaker 1 (17:29):
I'm available.
Speaker 2 (17:31):
He's absolutely trying to cut in line. He's planting the seed,
and sometimes you end up cutting in line because the
line stinks. And that would be the case right now.
This would take an owner, some random NFL aristocrat who's
wired a little bit sideways, just a little bit sideways,
(17:52):
and someone who looks at the coaching menu and says,
I'd like to order on the secret menu.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
It's like some people go.
Speaker 2 (17:58):
To in and out Burger and they get the cheese
burger and the double cheeseburger in the fries, and then
some people get the animal style right. Some people just
take they take the regular onions, but people know that
you can ask for the grilled onions, which tastes better
than the regular onions. So you should ask for the
grilled onions. It takes all kinds, so high risk, high noise,
all that stuff, high volume. But Philip Rivers, imagine him,
(18:19):
if you will, in that little cartoon bubble above your head,
as a head coach. It would kind of be like
eating leftovers. You've forgotten the fridge, you know, always a
little questionable.
Speaker 1 (18:29):
You're hungry. That thing you put in the back of
the fridge.
Speaker 2 (18:31):
You're not sure what it was, but it was right there,
and it's kind of tempting as it looks okay. And
then look at that bad doesn't have freezer, burner or refrigerator.
You know, a kind of damage done there, and it's tempting,
and so you wouldn't ignore it. Now you don't ignore it.
I stare at a little bit and move your fork around.
You go, I see what's you know, the backside looks
on it and all that stuff, and maybe you take
(18:52):
a bite, take a bite.
Speaker 1 (18:53):
That's it.
Speaker 2 (18:54):
And it would obviously take a whack a doodle a
whack a doodle head coach, and I would say Carly
Ursa Gordon micro managing the Colts would be on that
short list. Jimmy Haslam, who famously drafted Johnny Manziel because
a homeless person told them to draft Johnny Minzel.
Speaker 1 (19:10):
I would say he's on the spectrum.
Speaker 2 (19:12):
And then how about my guy Mark Davis, who knows
nothing about football, knows nothing about football? And just likes
eating the orange chicken at PF Chang's and he loves that,
and just hired Tom Brady and said, Tom, do what
everything you want. So Tom hired the oldest coach in
NFL history and a quarterback that can't play because Mark
Davis said, I don't know what I'm doing, So just
(19:33):
hired and Tom said, I don't know what I'm doing either,
but I look better. I've got more money, and people
kiss my ass because I'm Tom Brady. It's okay, there
you go. It is the Bane Mallor Show. If you'd
like to be part now, we do have a big

We don't have any big imaging. There's like no opening
to this. It's just old school. For the first time,
I didn't think you show up. I've not heard from

So the good news is management tells me that the
price we're paying you is the perfect price for content.
So yes, you're you're very affordable, weed Man, and you
will pay you that same amount of money as long
as you want.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
We will never pay you a dollar less.
Speaker 5 (22:54):
Appreciate it.
Speaker 2 (22:55):
I guess we paid your dollar less. You'd have to
pay us, I think would be the way that would work.
Speaker 1 (22:59):
Yeah, that would be.
Speaker 5 (23:00):
That would be.
Speaker 1 (23:01):
That would be awkward.
Speaker 2 (23:03):
Yes, Hi, do you have any opening thoughts here you'd
like to share or you want to get right to
the questions.
Speaker 5 (23:09):
I want to shage the world. I want I want
to I want to fuse it to be much better
than it's been in the past. And I think we
can do that.
Speaker 1 (23:17):
All right.
Speaker 2 (23:17):
Well, Mike writes in on the email from Philadelphia and
says that the world's always changing.
Speaker 1 (23:26):
He says, so what are you what are you talking about?
We man? He is always changing.
Speaker 5 (23:31):
It's still a violent world.
Speaker 6 (23:33):
I want to rough your skull away.
Speaker 5 (23:35):
I want to be happy, all right.
Speaker 2 (23:38):
Well, some people The problem is the problem is a
certain percentage of people seem to be happy, like beating
people up. That seems to be the problem anyway. Ferg
Dog writes in. He says, hey, weed Man, while Benny
was away. Did you listen to any of his old
podcasts from nine years ago? That's from ferg Dog. No,
but you were probably on those podcasts from nine years ago.
(23:59):
We'd and you were likely part of that.
Speaker 5 (24:02):
No, because you don't only get your monologues. You don't
get you don't get callers.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
No, No, the nine year old the whole show is archived.
Speaker 2 (24:09):
It goes back nine years. It has the callers on there.
You just have to fast forward through the monologues because I.
Speaker 1 (24:14):
Know you don't care about the monologues. It's all about you.
It's all about Billy. You just want to hear your
phone calls. I know what's going on. You don't care
about what I say? All right, to hear it all.
Speaker 2 (24:26):
I know it's all there. It's all there on YouTube.
It's just the monologues. Andy in Linel Lakes, Minnesota, says Billy.
Any New Year's aspirations like setting up an email, buying
a new pipe, getting a new pair of socks. I
love this segment, says Andy in Linel Lakes.
Speaker 5 (24:45):
I got a new pipe that I got.
Speaker 1 (24:47):
Yeah, you made sure to do that email. No pipe, Yes.
Speaker 9 (24:51):
No, you realize if you set up an email, you
might be able to buy ten pipes because people would
send you gifts.
Speaker 1 (24:58):
Oh that's good point, wo really good monetary gift.
Speaker 2 (25:01):
Yeah, yeah, it's but it's too hard, right, the whole
email thing, it's it's I.
Speaker 5 (25:06):
Try, I tried doing you have an email. It's not
even my name. Those not glads.
Speaker 2 (25:11):
All right, But we we've talked about the fact that
we we're willing. I can send an email up for
you about five minutes and I can send it to you.
Speaker 1 (25:18):
Are you going to remember it though?
Speaker 5 (25:20):
Yeah, that'd be great, that'd be great. I love that.
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (25:24):
All right.
Speaker 2 (25:25):
We said this the last time we talked, and it
never happened. King Rory writes in he says, would weed
Man rather be the president of Venezuela or Greenland?
Speaker 1 (25:34):
It's a great question. There's warm point, and.
Speaker 9 (25:39):
You would have all that oil and diamonds and stuff.
We want those.
Speaker 2 (25:43):
But isn't the Greenland is mostly ice? Or it's false
advertising They say it's Greenland, but it's like Iceland should
be called Greenland, and Greenland should.
Speaker 1 (25:52):
Be called Iceland, opposites. It's bad joby. We changed the name,
you know, we changed the.
Speaker 9 (25:57):
Golf of Mexico.
Speaker 1 (25:58):
Well we did, but the.
Speaker 2 (25:59):
Golf in like course, we had the Charlotte Hornets became
the Charlotte Bobcats, and then they were reborn as the
Charlotte Hornets. So we could do a switcher root. We
could do a trade once. Once America takes over Greenland,
we'll just switch it with Iceland, and then we'll have
Iceland and.
Speaker 5 (26:15):
Then hey, then what happened to is Ion Williamson?

Tammy in Vegas, Christian ponder, Why would you even ponder passing?
Speaker 1 (36:58):
From King Rory? Who else do we have a page down?
Speaker 2 (37:02):
Kwame Brown from Nature Boy answering the call the wild
Junior Brown from Mister Irrigation. Aaron Rodgers gets by Johnny Q.
Shader Sanders from JT the wing Man just outside Knoxville.
Mickey Donovan from Ryan in San Diego.
Speaker 1 (37:18):
That's enough. We don't have to talk. Oh the Rain.
I was gonna go with Cheach, Cheach, not Shong, but cheats.
Speaker 2 (37:23):
No, it is ya Feme's favorite quarterback, Caleb Williams.
Speaker 1 (37:27):
Caleb Williams is the correct answer. He lost four hundred
four yards because a drop passage.
Speaker 6 (37:33):
Here we got.
Speaker 8 (37:37):
Degree Yep, this is one big fan gets grilled.
Speaker 1 (37:42):
Cooper Loop.
Speaker 4 (37:44):
So on Sunday, Cam Little hit a sixty seven yard
field goal to set a new record for longest outdoor
field goal. He already set the record for the longest
field goal overall earlier in the season. Yeah, but do
you think kickers are becoming more valuable?
Speaker 1 (37:56):
Well, here's what I think it's gonna happen, Coop.
Speaker 2 (37:57):
First of all, they're making these ridiculus his kicks pretty
much every weekend in the NFL.
Speaker 1 (38:02):
So what's gonna happen is the.
Speaker 2 (38:03):
Rules committee is gonna step and they change the rules
to make it easier for kickers. They get to massage
their balls all week and all that, and so which
guys do anyway, but the kickers had the special kicking balls,
and so they're gonna change the rules.
Speaker 1 (38:16):
Mark my words, Cooop there.
Speaker 2 (38:18):
This is not great for the sport to see all
these long field goals and they will change the rules,
but they are valuable right now until those.
Speaker 1 (38:25):
Rules are changed.
Speaker 4 (38:25):
Next there are reports that the Chiefs are looking to
bring back former offensive coordinator Eric b Enemy. Do you
think a return to the past can fix what's wrong
with Kansas City?
Speaker 1 (38:35):
Now?
Speaker 2 (38:35):
They need better players. They need better players is what
they need. And the Enemy went out on his own.
He wanted to prove people that he could do things
on his own. He was an abject failure. Everywhere he went.
He sucked. Andy Reid is so hands on. When you
look at the Chiefs anyway, it sounds like Kelsey's gonna retire.
Speaker 1 (38:53):
We're going to talk about him more. He's got a
big offer coming his way.
Speaker 2 (38:56):
And Mahomes is going to be out at least half
of next season. So the Chiefs, whether the Enemy's there
or not. Andy Reid's the hand on guy, hands on
guy and all that stuff. They got to find a
way to get some more impact players on that offense
because it seemed like they had those guys, but they
didn't live up to expectations.
Speaker 4 (39:14):
Right next, former Texas quarterback Quinn You were, as told
reporters of the Weekend that he turned down a huge
nil offer to go pro and he did it because
he didn't want to tarnish the legacy and relationships he
had built in Texas to chase money elsewhere.
Speaker 1 (39:27):
Are you buying that? Wait?
Speaker 2 (39:29):
Isn't he the guy that went to Ohio State first
and took the bag from Ohio State and then went
to Texas.
Speaker 1 (39:34):
So you've already tarnished everything. You just like signed, I
want to.
Speaker 4 (39:38):
Be a long Hoard.
Speaker 1 (39:39):
I want to play in Austin.
Speaker 2 (39:41):
No, you already went to Ohio State and then you
left Ohio State to go play for the long Hoart.
Speaker 1 (39:47):
No.
Speaker 2 (39:47):
I mean, do you see there's four thousand, almost like
one third I think it is of all college football
players in the transfer portal.
Speaker 1 (39:55):
It's insane. It's fine boggling. That's a. That's a I'm
not terrible. Yeah, it's pretty bad.
Speaker 8 (40:01):
How do we go?
Speaker 2 (40:03):
My guy, I won Jeromed Charleston. I won Jerome and
Charleston
Boom, shaka laka.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
It's our number two. The sound of silence in our
number two Steelers wide receiver DK.
Speaker 1 (00:09):
Metcalf, as we talk about on the Ben Maler Show.
Speaker 2 (00:12):
DK Metcalf keeping his lips sealed on the kerfluffle with
Lions fans of one in particular. Is this an overreaction
or smart silence? As Metcalf is back in Pittsburgh, also,
Colts owner Carly Urs Gordon says, the sense of urgency
for GM Chris Ballard and coach Shane Steichen has never
(00:35):
been higher.
Speaker 1 (00:37):
How do you translate this?
Speaker 2 (00:38):
And speaking of indie, former Colts quarterback Philip Rivers believes
he can be a head coach in the NFL, what
is your read on that situation?
Speaker 1 (00:47):
Will go there as well.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
Right now here, it is clear the way for our
number two. My lips are seal, said one NFL player.
Welcome in the beginning of another.

Speaker 2 (02:43):
Is yours, so lead this hour from Western Pa pet
Spurg to be exact, the confluence where the Ohio River
is born. The relationship right there they make they make
sweet love there and the Ohio River is born. So
thanks to the idiot kicker for Baltimore doing the loop
(03:04):
de loop the chip shot field goal which got shanked. Well,
the Black and Yellow, Black and Yellow, Black and Yellow
are in the playoffs, Pittsburgh a.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
Home game on Monday night.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
They'll take on the Houston Texans and the playoff card
there and they're getting their star player back, their offensive dynamo.
Speaker 1 (03:24):
I know you're excited to hear what he had to say. No,
all right, maybe not. We got you.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
So Steelers wide receiver DK Metcalf he is back and
better than ever. Dk Metcalf was away from the team
for a couple of games because he got into a
rhubarb with a Lion fan at Ford Field in Detroit.
Two game suspension served. He is now eligible to return
(03:53):
as the postseason gets going. So what did dk Metcalf
have to say, Well, he get he asked a lot
of questions, he was peppered a lot.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
Of questions, and well here's how he handled the line
of questions.
Speaker 4 (04:05):
Can you explain to us what happened in Detroit.
Speaker 1 (04:07):
You had to be the one to ask him. No,
I can't.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
Was there anything recess like as far as the appeals
and talking with the NFL?
Speaker 5 (04:15):
Just how can you walk us through that process?
Speaker 1 (04:17):
I can't walk out do nothing to happen?
Speaker 6 (04:18):
Were surprised if the appeal was about Yeah, but that's
all I say.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
I respect that you don't and can't really go into
a lot of it.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
Is there anything you would like to clarify about misinformation?
Speaker 6 (04:32):
Right now?
Speaker 1 (04:32):
I can't say nothing about what happened.
Speaker 6 (04:35):
Is that because there's honor.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
I can't say anything about what happened for the fifth time.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
Okay, there, I can't say anything that happened for that
fifth time. Now, metcalf as you heard there, He did
say he was surprised. Later on he said he was
surprised the appeal did not work. His suspension appeal was denied,
and he was upset by that.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
He says, excited to be back, blah blah blah blah
blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. All right, So
that's that's a good jumping off point.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
Let us discuss the question Steelers wide receiver DK Metcalf
kept his lips completely.
Speaker 1 (05:09):
Sealed on his curf fluffel with a Lions fan.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
Is this an overreaction by DK Metcalf or smart silence?
So I've got seagulls, looney Tunes, and leftovers, and we
will combine all of these things together and we're gonna
make mac and cheese. You can't just have mac. You
(05:36):
can't have cheese. But you can't have mac without the cheese.
You gotta have the cheese with the max. We'll have
that all right now.
Speaker 7 (05:42):
Number One, what DK Metcalf did here was he went
to full monastery mode.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
Is what he did? Silent? It was a monk mode
if you want to call it that.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
There a it's not confusion. This was legal counsel legal
we obviously right, I mean, did that not sound like
someone that had a little pow wow with some lawyers
and said, Okay, what can I say? What can I
not say? Well, don't say this that or the other thing.
And if you talk about the do hickey, that'll be
a problem. The thing of a jig and you can't
(06:18):
talk about that. Now, maybe you can talk about to
what you might call it, but probably not. Probably can't
talk about the watch McAll. This is not an overreaction,
all right, not an overreaction. This is calculated silence is
what this was. And this is a guy who has
been handed DK Metcalf the legal version of the red
Challenge flag. And at this point anything he says can
(06:42):
and will be used against him via replay assist. They'll
pull out a dusty VHS machine in the courtroom and
all right, I saw you said this, okay, all right,
when in doubt, I learned this at iHeart College. Win
in doubt, leave it out, win in doubt, leave it out. Important.
Now this smells like lawyers whispering. Yeah, and yeah, they're
(07:06):
whispering sweet nothings into into his ear. DK Metcalf say nothing,
do nothing, sign nothing, think nothing, and then be very careful.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
How you blank blank blank blank blank blank blank.
Speaker 2 (07:21):
Why, Well, it's rather obvious if you you've seen what's
going on here, paid attention, if you've heard what's going
on with the Lions fan. Even Stevie Meatballs knows the
blue haired guy, the Lions fan. Yeah, he's a lawyered up.
And if you look at the clips that are bouncing
around online and all that, he's lawyered up like a
(07:42):
used car salesman with a class action coupon, and he's
he's all about it.
Speaker 1 (07:47):
There.
Speaker 2 (07:48):
Now you've got ambulance chasers who are circling like seagulls
at a landfill.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
Hey, oh this is great.
Speaker 2 (07:58):
And we checked with the opttrist on these lawyers and
the attorneys.
Speaker 1 (08:04):
If you look at their eyes, they're not the blue.
They're not brown. No no, no, no, no.
Speaker 2 (08:11):
They are They look like dollar signs. They're green with
dollar signs right in the eyes there. And so this
isn't about justice. It's not about justice. It's about turning
DK Metcalf's bank account into a penyata, a penyata. So
DK hits the mute button and he saves some of
(08:34):
his four oh one k. He saves that and lives
to fight another down, which is the smart thing.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
It's not fun.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
It'd be much more fun if DK Metcalf came out
O that guy with the blue hair. What a loser,
What a loser that guy was, Oh, my total schmuck.
Douche nozzle. That's his nickname in the locker room, douche nozzle.
He didn't say any of that, right, And so he
saved some money and all that and the silence, and
this case is not weakness.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
It is a.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
Financial defense play, and it is the prevent defense, preventing
the loss of more funds. Now, page two, we go
to Indianapolis, where the owner of the Colts made some headlines.
The question on this one Colts owner. The owner there,
Carle ers Gordon. She's the woman that walked around the
(09:24):
sidelines with the dress on, and she was the smartest
woman in the NFL for the first eight games and
then the dumbest woman in the NFL the final part
of the NFL regular seasons the Colts fell apart. She says,
this is from Colts owner carlely ERSA.
Speaker 1 (09:38):
Gordon.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
She said, this sense of urgency there is now for
GM Chris Bald. There's a big sense of urgency for
Chris bal of the GM and coach Chaine Steichen. It's
never been higher, she said, never been higher. They are
going to keep the Colts, both the GM and the
coach after the historical free fall, the biggest oak job
(10:00):
in NFL history. And so how do you translate this?
How do you translate this? So it reads like alarm bells,
smoke and Colt's chaos. Even who's your bill is concerned
except nobody's really running.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
There's no running.
Speaker 2 (10:19):
Indy is talking tough and this woman Carly Ursa Gordon
talking tough while sitting on the hands. There the smoke
detectives got dead batteries and that's it.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
That's it now.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
The Great General George Patten said that say what you
mean and mean what you say that That was.
Speaker 1 (10:41):
The quote there.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
This cult franchise is it must be something about Indian Like. Look,
I think of the Pacers. I know they were in
the finals last year, but I think of the Pacers
as like the definition of average in the NBA, Like
there were always a round five hundred. They're never that
much over five hundred. They're never that much under five hundred.
It's always like average. And I think the Colts the
same way, Like the Colts are just kind of an
(11:03):
average team. The usually right around eight wins or so.
It seems like they're kind of in that area. And
then that's it, right, They just they keep saying the
right things, the Colts, but doing next to nothing, doing
next to nothing, and its urgency.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
Theater is what it is. It's it's urgency theater.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
High School drama club stuff is what You've got a
lot of Shakespearean level drama.
Speaker 1 (11:31):
And early in the.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
Year they were there, they flirted with relevance. The Indianapolis Colts.
They had Daniel Jones who looked like he had dropped
down manna from heaven. And then at one moment he
woke up and realized, wait a minute, my name is
Daniel Jones. I'm a Mama luke. And he started playing like, well,
(11:55):
Daniel Jones a Mama luke.
Speaker 1 (11:57):
And then he got hurt, and the.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
Injuries piled up, and the the Colts like a bad
nineteen eighties comedy, They called up Philip Rivers in the
Boon Docks and said, hey, how would you like to
play quarterback for the Colts?
Speaker 1 (12:09):
He said, ah, sure, why not? Why not? What the hell?
Speaker 2 (12:14):
So that all went down and the Colts did this
cartoon barrel roll right off the cliff think Looney Tunes,
the y League Coyote pause and then splat just like that,
and Shane Stiken plausibly higher to make sure that didn't happen.
(12:36):
Shane Styken could not stop it, couldn't do it. No parachute,
no soft landing, no eject button.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
They went right in there.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
That was a Kamakazi mission to close out the ear
and just a lot of crush dreams and broken hearts
and scattered all over the turf there, And what a
choke job that was. INDI's operating manual for the Colts
now reads like the classic Marine slogan embraced suck. Shane
Steikeen a losing record as a head coach in Indianapolis.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
Ballard the GM.
Speaker 2 (13:06):
His teams have averaged seven and a half wins per
year and he's been there a while. That's not exactly progress.
That is the treadmill of mediocrity is what that is.
And then you look at Shane Steichen a little deeper.
He's coached twenty two games against teams that are above
five hundred and lost seventeen of the twenty two. I
(13:27):
don't think that's good, but what do I know. I
just do the Overnight show, and two of ten against
divisional opponents I believe is Shane Steichen's record. I saw
that number bouncing around, and yet nobody is losing their job.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
But we're gonna have more urgency. That's what we're gonna do.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
Yeah, the only plausible explanation for the GM ballard keeping
his job is that he's got some incriminating photos of
certain people with zoo animals. And that's about it. But
we thought that might be Jim Mercy, but he's not
around anymore. Must be somebody else.
Speaker 1 (14:02):
It's hr approved concern, is what it is all right now.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
Final point staying with the horseshoes, and we mentioned Philip
Rivers coming out of the backwoods and going zero to
three as the Colts quarterback. Well, Philip Rivers says that
he could, that's what we is the word could be
a head coach in the NFL someday, just not right now.
He is returning to Alabama and he'll hang out there
(14:26):
coach his son, one of his many kids in his
senior year, and then that's it. After that, who knows,
who knows what he will be doing, but he will not.
He will not be doing that after next year, most likely.
And so he's talking about being a head coach. But
he is back in the you know, off the Winter
(14:46):
Muckle Road, if you will, If that went all the
way down to a suburb, it's actually a suburb of mobile.
It's in this nice looking bay which is really nice
until the big storms come in. The probably looks so
nice anymore. All right, So the question former Colts quarterback
Philip Rivers, the guy with the Bolo tie, believes he
can be a head coach in the NFL. What's your
(15:10):
read on this, sitch Way, Shannon, that's the question. So
did anyone, by the way, expect Philip Rivers to come
out and say, oh, no, I can't coach in the NFL.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
Those guys are so good, they are so good.
Speaker 2 (15:21):
I couldn't handle it. I can't do it. Na, I'm
not good enough, of course not. This is classic Jack
Hubris is what this is. Former players never think the
latter's too high.
Speaker 1 (15:33):
They never do.
Speaker 2 (15:34):
They think it's broken and they should be allowed to
jump the line. And I gotta tell you there have
been some real dumb dums who have been head coaches
in the NFL.
Speaker 1 (15:43):
I'm not that bright. I think I could do the job.
I don't know much. I believe that.
Speaker 2 (15:49):
There's so many bad coaches in the NFL. It's wild,
it really is. And so whether or not you jump
in line or not, I mean, the coaching pipeline is
a mess.
Speaker 1 (16:01):
It is a hot mess. Here.
Speaker 2 (16:02):
You see the same assistance Robert Salah, who failed miserably
with the Jets, is up for.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
Coaching jobs again. Brian Floores who failed with the Dolphins.
Speaker 2 (16:12):
Stefanski who just the body's not even cold yet after
he sucked with the Browns.
Speaker 1 (16:17):
His name's being floated around. It's the same names.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
It's the recycled resumes, same flotsam and jets them that
get recycled. Here the teams higher, the normal higher. Well,
he's got the nice resume and all that stuff, and
you end up getting these rather blob results. Vanilla ice
cream results is what you get. And it's running on fumes,
(16:40):
running on fumes like a lawnmower, and you yanking the cord,
praying it turns on and it is not turning on
and all that stuff, and so you see it. The assistance,
the buzzwords are the same. The stale bubblegum is what
it is under the desk and rivers. He would certainly
(17:02):
be different. It would be non traditional, It would be
unconventional to go that direction. Coloring outside the lines, which
can be good everyone so on, not with crayon using
a sharpie, got to use that sharpie coloring outside the lines,
And is anything intimate no, it's a thought.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
You file the thought away, and.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
Then a year from now, it's Philip Rivers calling people
up saying, hey, how would you like to have Philip
Rivers as the head coach.
Speaker 1 (17:29):
I'm available.
Speaker 2 (17:31):
He's absolutely trying to cut in line. He's planting the seed,
and sometimes you end up cutting in line because the
line stinks. And that would be the case right now.
This would take an owner, some random NFL aristocrat who's
wired a little bit sideways, just a little bit sideways,
(17:52):
and someone who looks at the coaching menu and says,
I'd like to order on the secret menu.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
It's like some people go.
Speaker 2 (17:58):
To in and out Burger and they get the cheese
burger and the double cheeseburger in the fries, and then
some people get the animal style right. Some people just
take they take the regular onions, but people know that
you can ask for the grilled onions, which tastes better
than the regular onions. So you should ask for the
grilled onions. It takes all kinds, so high risk, high noise,
all that stuff, high volume. But Philip Rivers, imagine him,
(18:19):
if you will, in that little cartoon bubble above your head,
as a head coach. It would kind of be like
eating leftovers. You've forgotten the fridge, you know, always a
little questionable.
Speaker 1 (18:29):
You're hungry. That thing you put in the back of
the fridge.
Speaker 2 (18:31):
You're not sure what it was, but it was right there,
and it's kind of tempting as it looks okay. And
then look at that bad doesn't have freezer, burner or refrigerator.
You know, a kind of damage done there, and it's tempting,
and so you wouldn't ignore it. Now you don't ignore it.
I stare at a little bit and move your fork around.
You go, I see what's you know, the backside looks
on it and all that stuff, and maybe you take
(18:52):
a bite, take a bite.
Speaker 1 (18:53):
That's it.
Speaker 2 (18:54):
And it would obviously take a whack a doodle a
whack a doodle head coach, and I would say Carly
Ursa Gordon micro managing the Colts would be on that
short list. Jimmy Haslam, who famously drafted Johnny Manziel because
a homeless person told them to draft Johnny Minzel.
Speaker 1 (19:10):
I would say he's on the spectrum.
Speaker 2 (19:12):
And then how about my guy Mark Davis, who knows
nothing about football, knows nothing about football? And just likes
eating the orange chicken at PF Chang's and he loves that,
and just hired Tom Brady and said, Tom, do what
everything you want. So Tom hired the oldest coach in
NFL history and a quarterback that can't play because Mark
Davis said, I don't know what I'm doing, So just
(19:33):
hired and Tom said, I don't know what I'm doing either,
but I look better. I've got more money, and people
kiss my ass because I'm Tom Brady. It's okay, there
you go. It is the Bane Mallor Show. If you'd
like to be part now, we do have a big

to it all right, Well, back to it we go.
Speaker 2 (21:48):
We don't have any big imaging. There's like no opening
to this. It's just old school. For the first time,
I didn't think you show up. I've not heard from
this guy in a couple of weeks, but there he
is in South Flow Hollywood floor.
Speaker 1 (22:01):
We go to Hollywood.

We want to make the world a beautiful place to
live for everybody.
Speaker 2 (22:27):
Okay, I did not know that we had the budget
to bring you back in twenty twenty six.
Speaker 1 (22:31):
I know there's a lot of cost cutting going on
in radio.
Speaker 2 (22:34):
So the good news is management tells me that the
price we're paying you is the perfect price for content.
So yes, you're you're very affordable, weed Man, and you
will pay you that same amount of money as long
as you want.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
We will never pay you a dollar less.
Speaker 5 (22:54):
Appreciate it.
Speaker 2 (22:55):
I guess we paid your dollar less. You'd have to
pay us, I think would be the way that would work.
Speaker 1 (22:59):
Yeah, that would be.
Speaker 5 (23:00):
That would be.
Speaker 1 (23:01):
That would be awkward.
Speaker 2 (23:03):
Yes, Hi, do you have any opening thoughts here you'd
like to share or you want to get right to
the questions.
Speaker 5 (23:09):
I want to shage the world. I want I want
to I want to fuse it to be much better
than it's been in the past. And I think we
can do that.
Speaker 1 (23:17):
All right.
Speaker 2 (23:17):
Well, Mike writes in on the email from Philadelphia and
says that the world's always changing.
Speaker 1 (23:26):
He says, so what are you what are you talking about?
We man? He is always changing.
Speaker 5 (23:31):
It's still a violent world.
Speaker 6 (23:33):
I want to rough your skull away.
Speaker 5 (23:35):
I want to be happy, all right.
Speaker 2 (23:38):
Well, some people The problem is the problem is a
certain percentage of people seem to be happy, like beating
people up. That seems to be the problem anyway. Ferg
Dog writes in. He says, hey, weed Man, while Benny
was away. Did you listen to any of his old
podcasts from nine years ago? That's from ferg Dog. No,
but you were probably on those podcasts from nine years ago.
(23:59):
We'd and you were likely part of that.
Speaker 5 (24:02):
No, because you don't only get your monologues. You don't
get you don't get callers.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
No, No, the nine year old the whole show is archived.
Speaker 2 (24:09):
It goes back nine years. It has the callers on there.
You just have to fast forward through the monologues because I.
Speaker 1 (24:14):
Know you don't care about the monologues. It's all about you.
It's all about Billy. You just want to hear your
phone calls. I know what's going on. You don't care
about what I say? All right, to hear it all.
Speaker 2 (24:26):
I know it's all there. It's all there on YouTube.
It's just the monologues. Andy in Linel Lakes, Minnesota, says Billy.
Any New Year's aspirations like setting up an email, buying
a new pipe, getting a new pair of socks. I
love this segment, says Andy in Linel Lakes.
Speaker 5 (24:45):
I got a new pipe that I got.
Speaker 1 (24:47):
Yeah, you made sure to do that email. No pipe, Yes.
Speaker 9 (24:51):
No, you realize if you set up an email, you
might be able to buy ten pipes because people would
send you gifts.
Speaker 1 (24:58):
Oh that's good point, wo really good monetary gift.
Speaker 2 (25:01):
Yeah, yeah, it's but it's too hard, right, the whole
email thing, it's it's I.
Speaker 5 (25:06):
Try, I tried doing you have an email. It's not
even my name. Those not glads.
Speaker 2 (25:11):
All right, But we we've talked about the fact that
we we're willing. I can send an email up for
you about five minutes and I can send it to you.
Speaker 1 (25:18):
Are you going to remember it though?
Speaker 5 (25:20):
Yeah, that'd be great, that'd be great. I love that.
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (25:24):
All right.
Speaker 2 (25:25):
We said this the last time we talked, and it
never happened. King Rory writes in he says, would weed
Man rather be the president of Venezuela or Greenland?
Speaker 1 (25:34):
It's a great question. There's warm point, and.
Speaker 9 (25:39):
You would have all that oil and diamonds and stuff.
We want those.
Speaker 2 (25:43):
But isn't the Greenland is mostly ice? Or it's false
advertising They say it's Greenland, but it's like Iceland should
be called Greenland, and Greenland should.
Speaker 1 (25:52):
Be called Iceland, opposites. It's bad joby. We changed the name,
you know, we changed the.
Speaker 9 (25:57):
Golf of Mexico.
Speaker 1 (25:58):
Well we did, but the.
Speaker 2 (25:59):
Golf in like course, we had the Charlotte Hornets became
the Charlotte Bobcats, and then they were reborn as the
Charlotte Hornets. So we could do a switcher root. We
could do a trade once. Once America takes over Greenland,
we'll just switch it with Iceland, and then we'll have
Iceland and.
Speaker 5 (26:15):
Then hey, then what happened to is Ion Williamson?
Speaker 1 (26:18):
How is he fat?
Speaker 8 (26:21):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (26:21):
Let's say, let's say hello to uh Old, I mean
lucky you lock you in. Lucky Tony in the Bay
Areas is calling in, Hello, Lucky Tony.
Speaker 1 (26:30):
You're on ask a weed Man, Hey Tony Ben.
Speaker 5 (26:34):
Hey Ben? And weed Man, weed Man, I got a
question for you. Yeah.
Speaker 6 (26:37):
So then those older podcasts used to be the straight
up D and I understand why people make those jokes
about you, But what what change.
Speaker 5 (26:45):
Would make you actually a halfway decent guy?
Speaker 6 (26:47):
Bears?
Speaker 5 (26:49):
I've always been a decent nights.
Speaker 1 (26:54):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (26:55):
Well, he says you were a dev were you a
D back in the day, Well, you got very upset
with me. I remember there was one. Oh yeah, I
guess Tony was done. He hung up on himself. There,
my god.
Speaker 1 (27:05):
Yeah, but there was a point we had. We've had
a couple of fights over these. You know, we're married.
We're a married couple, weed man. Me and you and
oh we've.
Speaker 2 (27:12):
Been together a long time and not as long as
you and Lisa is Lisa leir By the way, Hello Lisa,
are you there? Lee?
Speaker 6 (27:17):
She's not there.
Speaker 2 (27:18):
She's big timing us. Huh, what's up with that? I
don't know, all right, Benito the long suffering. By the way,
these are actual questions by actual listeners. You can send
them in care of hashtag ask a weed man. You
can call up at eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox,
or just tag me at Ben Maller on ex. Benito says,
(27:40):
ask weedman, should I cheat on my wife with my secretary?
That's from Benito? No, no, don't, don't do that is
to stay away from that.
Speaker 9 (27:51):
Yeah, I think it's a great idea.
Speaker 2 (27:53):
Lorraine's like, well, Lorena's asking how hot she is? She
wants to know.
Speaker 1 (27:57):
I did not have relationships with that one. I don't
know who that who that is? All right?
Speaker 2 (28:01):
Freddie writes in He says, weed man, what are you
looking to accomplish or what goals do you have in
twenty twenty six.
Speaker 1 (28:10):
All right, I want I want.
Speaker 6 (28:11):
A TV show?
Speaker 1 (28:13):
You want to that's a reasonable goal. What what you know?
Speaker 2 (28:16):
You could but you could get on YouTube. You have
a global platform. You could do it yourself. Get sponsors,

the question. What is the answer? Shane in de Moyes says,
Tammy in Vegas, Christian ponder, Why would you even ponder passing?
Speaker 1 (36:58):
From King Rory? Who else do we have a page down?
Speaker 2 (37:02):
Kwame Brown from Nature Boy answering the call the wild
Junior Brown from Mister Irrigation. Aaron Rodgers gets by Johnny Q.
Shader Sanders from JT the wing Man just outside Knoxville.
Mickey Donovan from Ryan in San Diego.
Speaker 1 (37:18):
That's enough. We don't have to talk. Oh the Rain.
I was gonna go with Cheach, Cheach, not Shong, but cheats.
Speaker 2 (37:23):
No, it is ya Feme's favorite quarterback, Caleb Williams.
Speaker 1 (37:27):
Caleb Williams is the correct answer. He lost four hundred
four yards because a drop passage.
Speaker 6 (37:33):
Here we got.
Speaker 8 (37:37):
Degree Yep, this is one big fan gets grilled.
Speaker 1 (37:42):
Cooper Loop.
Speaker 4 (37:44):
So on Sunday, Cam Little hit a sixty seven yard
field goal to set a new record for longest outdoor
field goal. He already set the record for the longest
field goal overall earlier in the season. Yeah, but do
you think kickers are becoming more valuable?
Speaker 1 (37:56):
Well, here's what I think it's gonna happen, Coop.
Speaker 2 (37:57):
First of all, they're making these ridiculus his kicks pretty
much every weekend in the NFL.
Speaker 1 (38:02):
So what's gonna happen is the.
Speaker 2 (38:03):
Rules committee is gonna step and they change the rules
to make it easier for kickers. They get to massage
their balls all week and all that, and so which
guys do anyway, but the kickers had the special kicking balls,
and so they're gonna change the rules.
Speaker 1 (38:16):
Mark my words, Cooop there.
Speaker 2 (38:18):
This is not great for the sport to see all
these long field goals and they will change the rules,
but they are valuable right now until those.
Speaker 1 (38:25):
Rules are changed.
Speaker 4 (38:25):
Next there are reports that the Chiefs are looking to
bring back former offensive coordinator Eric b Enemy. Do you
think a return to the past can fix what's wrong
with Kansas City?
Speaker 1 (38:35):
Now?
Speaker 2 (38:35):
They need better players. They need better players is what
they need. And the Enemy went out on his own.
He wanted to prove people that he could do things
on his own. He was an abject failure. Everywhere he went.
He sucked. Andy Reid is so hands on. When you
look at the Chiefs anyway, it sounds like Kelsey's gonna retire.
Speaker 1 (38:53):
We're going to talk about him more. He's got a
big offer coming his way.
Speaker 2 (38:56):
And Mahomes is going to be out at least half
of next season. So the Chiefs, whether the Enemy's there
or not. Andy Reid's the hand on guy, hands on
guy and all that stuff. They got to find a
way to get some more impact players on that offense
because it seemed like they had those guys, but they
didn't live up to expectations.
Speaker 4 (39:14):
Right next, former Texas quarterback Quinn You were, as told
reporters of the Weekend that he turned down a huge
nil offer to go pro and he did it because
he didn't want to tarnish the legacy and relationships he
had built in Texas to chase money elsewhere.
Speaker 1 (39:27):
Are you buying that? Wait?
Speaker 2 (39:29):
Isn't he the guy that went to Ohio State first
and took the bag from Ohio State and then went
to Texas.
Speaker 1 (39:34):
So you've already tarnished everything. You just like signed, I
want to.
Speaker 4 (39:38):
Be a long Hoard.
Speaker 1 (39:39):
I want to play in Austin.
Speaker 2 (39:41):
No, you already went to Ohio State and then you
left Ohio State to go play for the long Hoart.
Speaker 1 (39:47):
No.
Speaker 2 (39:47):
I mean, do you see there's four thousand, almost like
one third I think it is of all college football
players in the transfer portal.
Speaker 1 (39:55):
It's insane. It's fine boggling. That's a. That's a I'm
not terrible. Yeah, it's pretty bad.
Speaker 8 (40:01):
How do we go?
Speaker 2 (40:03):
My guy, I won Jeromed Charleston. I won Jerome and
Charleston
