Speaker 1 (00:00):
Dilly dilly, it's our number two, our number two, And
what did you make of Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers a
diplomatic response to Hall of Famer Terry Bradshaw telling him
to go chew on bark? Also does anything stand out
about Aaron Rodgers yapping loquaciously about his new bride Britney
(00:24):
even though no one's seen Brittany. An emotional Nicola jokicchen
Basketball went viral over the weekend, reacting with the raw
emotion after watching one of his horses win a race
in his native Serbia while he was stoic when the
Nuggets won their NBA championship a couple of years ago.
What gives all of that?
Speaker 2 (00:45):
And more? Right now here?
Speaker 1 (00:46):
It is our number two, offering the old Aaron Rodgers
peace pipe.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
Welcome in the beginning of another hour of the Ben Mathers.
Speaker 1 (01:00):
We are in the air everywhere adjacent as we find
the unknown coast to coast, port of the border and
beyond on the vast and sizeably powerful microphones of fsre
emmadinating live from the wash the mouthwash of gas baggery,
(01:22):
as we hang out together here from the Fox Sports
Radio Studios, as approved by mister Irrigation in Houston. This
portion of the Ben Maler Show on Fox made possible
in part by our friends at ty Iraq. For over
forty years, ty Iraq has been helping customers find the
right tires for how, what and where they drive, ship
(01:43):
fast and freeback by free road hazard protection with convenient
installation options like mobile tire installation tire iraq dot com
the way tire buying should be. So our lead this
hour is from Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, PA. We have a follow
up to the follow up, follow up to the follow up. Now,
what does the follow up to the follow up? You asked,
(02:05):
will he follow up to the follow up? You might
remember Terry Bradshaw, not that long ago. Terry Bradshaw. Yes,
the four time Super Bowl champ, the NFL on Fox Royalty,
who's been doing that forever and ever and ever and
ever and ever. So, Terry Bradshaw. He went on a
radio show in Arkansas and said Aaron Rodgers should chew
(02:29):
on bark, just chew on bark, go ahead now over
the weekend. Rogers responded, he did. He responded to that,
not if he saw this or not or missed it.
So Rodgers with our guy Kyle Brandt, who used to
work here part of the Fox Sports Radio Alumni Association.
Speaker 2 (02:48):
And here is Aaron Rodgers.
Speaker 1 (02:50):
Giving his rebuttal to what Terry Bradshaw had to say.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
Take a Liz.
Speaker 3 (02:54):
I've known Terry for a long time being a part
of Fox. Terry's a legend. He's an absolute legend. He
went for Super Bowls, He's had a legendary career in
the media. But Terry, like a lot of people, doesn't
know me, and so he's got an idea of what
he thinks about me based on what I've done, the documentary,
(03:15):
what I've said, Darkness Retreat, whatever the hell you want
to talk about.
Speaker 2 (03:20):
I'd love to get to know Terry on a deeper level.
Speaker 3 (03:22):
And I feel like if he gave me a chance
to get to know him, they would have a good friendship.
Because for me, I have nothing but the utmost amount
of respect and deference for what the greats have done,
because they laid the foundation for us to be able
to play in this great game, to be paid like kings,
and to carry on the tradition of excellence that guys
(03:43):
like the Bradshaws of the world in the seventies, and
Bart Starr in the sixties, and Lombardy and Joe Montana
and Steve Young and Troy Aikman, Brett.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
Farb I got youall.
Speaker 1 (03:53):
The main part of that is, he said, Terry's a legend,
and I'd love to get to know him. And he
doesn't know me, and he just knows me from the
documentary and he knows me from this, that and the
other thing. He said, I think we'd be friends. So
let us discuss the question what did you make of
the rand? We played most of it? What did you
make of the rant? Of Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers very diplomatic, right,
(04:15):
very diplomatic response to the Hall of Famer Terry Bradshaw
telling him to go chew on bark. All right, So
I've got the spectrum, mannequin, and post office, and we
will combine all of these things together and we are
going to make.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
Lunch with Terry.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
Actually followed Lunch with Terry years ago, a classic LA
radio show. Terry Bradshaw did a talk show for one
hour day and it was well, if you heard it,
you know it was an all timer back in the day.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
So number one, I said, Number one.
Speaker 1 (04:52):
This is so on brand for Aaron Rodgers. He's so
perfect for Aaron Rodgers.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
Here.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
This is a guy who essentially li his life at
this point, like he's inside some kind of sundance documentary
and the whole thing. He mentioned a lot of it, right,
he mentioned the Darkness Retreat. I don't think he mentioned ayahuasca.
Speaker 2 (05:13):
Later on. We'll get to the mystery wife that's out
there as well.
Speaker 1 (05:16):
And so now he's trying to emotionally connect to Terry Bradshaw.
He spoiler alert, spiler, Hey, Aaron, hate to tell you there,
Terry told you to go gnaw on a tree. He
would like you to find a nice tree out in
the woods and start chewing. Okay, not come over to
have some tea with crystals. I don't think that was
(05:39):
the approach that Bradshaw took. Now, Ry Aaron Rogers continues
to be great for talk radio. He's also on the
spectrum this weird bizarro spiritual sitcom thing.
Speaker 2 (05:52):
That's going on here.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
And I'll go back to the fact that he's got
a wife no one has seen, and this has been
been a while now, and who knows, maybe she lives
in an igloo or something like that.
Speaker 2 (06:05):
I don't know, and now he's trying to build.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
Bridges Rogers with people who have mocked him, like Terry Bradshaw,
and listen, it's it's definitely weak by Aaron Rodgers. And
he might be watching, and we all might be watching
the NFL's version of just an emotionally available quarterback.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
Normally they're not that way.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
But if you take a step back, right Aaron Rodgers,
who's now trying to make it go one last run,
one last moment in the sun in Pittsburgh, we would
not be shocked if next week, not this week, but
next week Aaron Rodgers shows up in some kind of
hemp poncho and offers Terry Bradshaw one of those forgiveness
(06:51):
you know, circle things at a retreat in Sedona. They
can just all go together, all expenses paid, and go
hang out in Sedona and have a time. So again,
buckle up. We know there's a lot of Steeler fans
insert fans, Buckle up. This is the Aaron Rodgers full experience.
It's gonna be a long wild ride with Aaron Rodgers.
(07:12):
And I'm there for it. Listen, I'm there. It's a
page turner, every single page. I'm in I'm in Now
for US, page number two, speaking of Aaron Rodgers. Now,
we mentioned that Aaron Rodgers has a mystery wife, and
he talked about that.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
He went on the record kind of kind of in
that same.
Speaker 1 (07:30):
Interview we got a little more insight, just a little
bit more, and he's speaking to state sponsored NFL media
at the Steeler training camp.
Speaker 2 (07:41):
Rogers opened up about his marriage. Do we have that?
I don't know if we have that.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
I guess we don't have that, all right, So he said,
quote when you meet the right one and you're with
the right one, your.
Speaker 2 (07:52):
Whole world changes.
Speaker 1 (07:53):
In a second, Rogers said of the mystery woman, supposedly
named Brittany, he said, and to have that person that
unconditionally loves you behind the scenes, there's no better feeling
in the world. Rogers said, And I have the most
incredible wife close quote all right, So does anything stand out?
(08:15):
Is there anything here that stands out about Aaron Rodgers
yapping loquaciously about his mystery wife Brittaney? So yes, yeah,
I guess the whole thing, the whole damn thing is
it's ridiculous, Rogers saying that he's got the most incredible
(08:36):
wife and yet we still have no there's no background info,
there's no photo, there's no nothing, there's no there there,
there's no there there, and not one paparazzo. Rogers lives
in the off season in Malibu. He is surrounded by
paparazzo and nobody has a photo.
Speaker 2 (08:55):
So what is going on?
Speaker 1 (08:58):
It's like she doesn't exist, Like seriously, like this supposed
woman named Brittany does not exact. You're telling me that
this guy, Aaron Rodgers, who's been in the public eye
for years and your starting quarterback in the NFL, and
there's not one photo out, not one, not a.
Speaker 2 (09:17):
Friend of a friend of a friend of a friend
of a friend's.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
Gardener that said, Hey, I saw so and so and
I know who it is.
Speaker 2 (09:25):
Right, you realize that in the.
Speaker 1 (09:27):
Times we live in, if you sneeze, right, if you sneeze,
TMC's got five different angles slow mo, five different angles
slow mo. It's twenty twenty five. That's how the world
works in twenty twenty five, right, this one not a
single shot, not a single shot. It's like we can't
even get one of those grainy Bigfoot esque You know
(09:49):
that the images of Bigfoot, which.
Speaker 2 (09:51):
You're always kind of weird, and it's like it's not.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
Really a clean photo of Bigfoot, and it's like, what's
going on with that?
Speaker 2 (09:55):
You know? It's that kind of deal. It's it's that
kind of deal.
Speaker 1 (09:59):
So Aaron Rodgers has been going down this anti mainstream
pseudo science like rabbit hole thing for for a long
time with all the stuff we've talked about here, the ayahuasca,
that darkness retweets and all that stuff, and so so
now is there a chance that she's a ghost, that
(10:19):
Britney's a ghost from the haunted mansion at Disneyland, and
that he married a ghost from the haunted mansion at Disneyland.
It's possible, right, she might be imaginary. You can't totally
rule it out, right, you cannot totally rule it out.
And it's a small percentage chance, but you can't really
rule it out. The odds are low, but the odds
are not zero. The odds are not zero for Aaron
(10:39):
Rodgers Man, this is another level.
Speaker 2 (10:43):
It really is.
Speaker 1 (10:44):
I mean, an incredible wife, but she I just wants
to keep a low profile. Okay did she even say yes?
Speaker 2 (10:54):
Who knows? Could she could a ghost say yes? Could it?
I don't know, that's another level of bizarro, just another
level of bizarro.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
And it's like, hey, uh.
Speaker 2 (11:08):
Did did he marry a mannequin?
Speaker 1 (11:10):
Did he find her in a display case somewhere and
then took her to a ceremony in Missoula, Montana to
get married?
Speaker 2 (11:19):
Because there's no one, no one in Montana.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
And uh, it's like she's under the witness protection program
or she's under house arrest if she's real. Are they
not living together? Is that what's going on? Like what,
what's what's the deal on this? Yet he's walking around
and letting people know they trust me.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
It's like it's like.
Speaker 1 (11:38):
Trust me, bro, She's really amazed, trust me bro. Uh yeah,
you know what it sounds like back when I was
in high school and there'd be the everyone had a
friend who had a girlfriend, but she went to a
different school.
Speaker 2 (11:51):
She went to a different school, and.
Speaker 1 (11:53):
You know, you wouldn't know her never came around, you know,
you know, didn't even lying they didn't have a girlfriend
and didn't go another school.
Speaker 2 (12:00):
He's made it up.
Speaker 1 (12:02):
So anyway, well see someone will come out here and
we'll have a different song to sing at that particular point.
But geez, there was also that movie about ten twelve
years ago called called Her, which was not a great movie,
not a great movie. But it is possible that he
(12:23):
is falling in love Rogers with an operating system. I
think that was a Scarlet Johansson film, if I remember correctly.
So it's possible that is the case. All right, now, final,
final point. We now go to Europe. That's right, we're
classing up the jouint We're going to Europe. And that
is where viral video popped up over the weekend of
a very emotional he was verklemped.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
Who is he?
Speaker 1 (12:46):
Nikola Jokic, the joker? The Kole Jokic went viral over
the weekend, reacting with raw emotion, raw emotion after watching
one of his horses win a race in his native Serbia.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
He was about as happy as you could possibly be.
Speaker 1 (13:04):
Now keep in mind when the Nuggets won the NBA
Championship a couple of years ago, he was about as
stoic as you could possibly be. There was no real emotion,
So what gives, right, what gives on that? So why
did we get happy horse Nikola Jokic? And then we
got when the Nuggets won? We just got the blah stoic,
(13:27):
nikoliokch what gives on that?
Speaker 2 (13:28):
So this is kind of obvious. This is not the
first time this has popped up.
Speaker 1 (13:33):
After a minutes long malor investigation, we have determined that
the NBA is a side hustle. That this is what
it is for Nikola Yukic. It's a side hustle. And
the fact that he's won a couple of MVP Awards
and he's got an NBA championship and he's decorated and
considered one of the top players is fine, and he's
(13:53):
not upset by that.
Speaker 2 (13:54):
But it really just funds. It's an ends to a mean.
Speaker 1 (13:57):
It funds nikolay Ok to buy livestock, to buy horses,
to go to horse auctions and buy horses. He's definitely
more invested in the ponies. He's definitely more invested in
the thoroughbreds than he is Jamal Murray pick and roll, right,
who cares about that. I'm much more involved in the
(14:19):
horses and Jokic. Remember he called winning the NBA title
good we can go home now, is what he said.
That was the famous quote when the Nuggets won. Good
we can go home now? Like it was really slowing
him down because he wanted to get back to Serbia and.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
Hang out with his horses.
Speaker 1 (14:37):
And he treats his basketball career like he's going to
the DMV on a Tuesday afternoon. It's wild when someone
shows up and and and gives you that kind of approach.
It's like that old quote when someone tells you who
they are.
Speaker 2 (14:54):
Believe them.
Speaker 4 (14:55):
Right.
Speaker 1 (14:56):
When you give Jokic a muddy race track in Belgrade,
he's out there crying like he's he's watching the movie Rudy, right,
the fighting Irish Rudy.
Speaker 2 (15:09):
Whah rah rah rah.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
That's real passion, that is raw emotion. As I said,
that's love. That is what he has. The NBA, that's
like a government job. The NBA is the kind of
job where you punch the clock. It's the nine to five.
You're just getting the pay check there. But if you
want to get down to the essence, down to the soul,
you've got to go to the horses. That's where you
(15:32):
got to go. And the NBA to him, it's it's
shocking to say this, but it's clear that Nicola Joag's
playing in the NBA is like he's working at the
post office. It's like he's in the back of the
post office and it's like, oh, we delivered the packages today.
Speaker 2 (15:46):
Okay, that's cool.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
I'm gonna I'm gonna go home and hang out with
my stallion named named Carrot or whatever it's named. And
we love it, right because weirdly, there's something that I
should like about it.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
It's it's honest, it's pure right, Like so many of
these guys.
Speaker 1 (16:05):
We talk about these NBA players all the time, and
a lot of them are living this double life. He's
not living a double life. He's not pretending. He's not
playing for the cameras. Nikola Jokic. Nikola Jokic. Does he
want to win? Sure, he'd like the Nuggets to win.
I don't doubt that at all. He wants to see
good basketball in the court with the Denver Nuggets. He
(16:25):
really wants to win on the track. That is what's
more important.
Speaker 4 (16:29):
Right.
Speaker 2 (16:29):
It's kind of amazing.
Speaker 1 (16:32):
That there's this little bit of a weird bubble in
the years that we live in now where it's just
next level celebrity for these NBA players, and you look
at all these guys trying to build the brand.
Speaker 2 (16:47):
It's all about the brand. Or if you've built the brand,
you've got to keep the brand up, people like Lebron
and Steph Curry.
Speaker 1 (16:53):
And then you've juxtaposed that with Nikola jokicch who's like
brand maybe the series, the brand Cereal, that's about it.
Speaker 2 (17:02):
I brand cattle. I'm into that. That's my thing here.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
And Jokic is he not the first NBA superstar. Now,
they've been players in the NBA that have had other interest,
but I'm talking about next level star, one of the
all time greats. And that's what NIKOLEA. Jokic is at basketball.
And yet he sees the NBA as a second job,
that it's not his first job and it's not his dream.
(17:31):
He was the fat kid, right, fat Kid's not supposed
to make the NBA. And it's not his passion. It's
not a passion play for Nikole Jokicic to be in
the NBA pays really well, pays really really well, which
is great, and it allows him to have his hand
in all these other things that he would not be
able to do if he wasn't good at basketball, if
he didn't have that good side hustle. It is the

So act accordingly and now back to it all, right,
back to it we go. King Roy says, I am
shocked in this day and age. Like you said, no
one has seen Aaron Rodgers wife. Don't you worry though,
I do believe I have one of those rare photos
of Aaron Rodgers and his wife.
Speaker 2 (20:39):
Well that's a great photo. She's a lovely lady.
Speaker 1 (20:41):
On My Apologies Tour, Inca Terra says I would take
the real Britney problems and all over an invisible one, okay.
Jay Scoop says Britney is short for brittle knee. Aaron
Rodgers married his own body part mysterylad mystery solved. According
(21:02):
to Jay's Scoop, it is wow. See, I I want
to know what's going because listen Lorena as a woman
on the show here, don't you think if if one
of your friends one of your girlfriends married a famous
athlete or something like that. Somebody would spill the beans.
Don't you think somebody would spill the beans to m Ben?
Speaker 8 (21:23):
I think it is absolutely impossible not to leak at
least one of the beans out of the can you
know what I'm saying? Like how can no one see
you together? You never are seen going home to her?
Or like does she stay inside a cage all day?
Speaker 2 (21:38):
She blow up doll?
Speaker 1 (21:39):
I need to know is she really I'm fascinated by
this story. He lives in Malibu where there are paparazzi everywhere,
the part that didn't burn down, there's paparazzi all over
the place there and no photos.
Speaker 8 (21:52):
I just I'm curious how he sneaks her in and
out of the house if.
Speaker 2 (21:56):
She ever leaves.
Speaker 1 (21:57):
Yeah, and you know the tabloids the way work. If
the first one to get the photo of Rogers' wife,
that's like a big get in the tabloid world.
Speaker 2 (22:06):
So there's a lot of money you.
Speaker 8 (22:07):
Get Luckness Monster.
Speaker 2 (22:11):
There's more photos of the Luckness Monster, though.
Speaker 1 (22:13):
Robbie the Mariner fans is Aaron Rodgers is on my
top five favorite quarterbacks of all time.
Speaker 2 (22:19):
Big board.
Speaker 1 (22:19):
But I'm one hundred percent convinced his wife is actually AI.
That could be AI action there possibly. Let's see what
else do we have here. I can't read that. Let's
see man well and Guardina checked in.
Speaker 2 (22:35):
Very nice.
Speaker 1 (22:36):
Jeremy the Trailblazer fan says Aaron Rodgers is the new
Manti Teoo because no way a star athlete can hide
their wife and a wedding without someone taking a picture. Well,
the wedding part you could hide if you just a lobe.
There's no record in this. Another thing in the courthouse,
(22:57):
you you have to file papers. It's a legal contract
when you get married to somebody, so you have to
file papers. And to my knowledge, there's no no evidence
of any in any state that maybe got married somewhere
else outside of the states, you know, no record of
them getting married. Mister irrigation says Aaron already choose on
tree bark.
Speaker 2 (23:17):
Yeah he has. Then he named a bunch there are
Oh yeah, let's go to the phones.
Speaker 1 (23:22):
Let's say a lot of hollering James, who's in Minneapolis, Minnesota?
Speaker 2 (23:26):
Hello, hollering James.
Speaker 9 (23:29):
I think Aaron Rodgers has got a wife like Ray
mystereo it's very mysterio and listic on how no one
has seen or heard beyond reasons from beyond his wife.
Speaker 1 (23:48):
James, you should take a page out of Rogers playbook
and you should say that you have a wife as well.
Speaker 2 (23:54):
What would your what would your fake wife's name be? James?
If you had a fake wife, what would her name
be from?
Speaker 9 (24:00):
Can't?
Speaker 2 (24:03):
James? Are you stupid? I said, what would your fake
wife's name be? That's what I said.
Speaker 1 (24:08):
Not you're not, I said, fake wife.
Speaker 2 (24:14):
Well, I guess you broke up.
Speaker 9 (24:15):
I guess you just passed.
Speaker 1 (24:18):
Really, James, I told you you're supposed to say you
thirty one, not sixty one. Remember you gotta be in
the demo. Come on being the demo A long time listener, Benny, Well,
the reason you have not wanted, the reason you have
not want to hold take a breath?
Speaker 2 (24:39):
All right?
Speaker 1 (24:40):
You should have won a benny for the time you
fell asleep and won the game show nuts.
Speaker 2 (24:46):
I thought you did. Didn't he win a benny for that?
I thought that? I mean that was Dad'd be the
game show cool? I mean the guy fell asleep and

Speaker 2 (27:14):
I think I asked for the song and they made it.
Speaker 1 (27:16):
I thought that would be perfect because you told us
you take thirty six pills in the morning and thirty
six pills at night.
Speaker 2 (27:21):
That's an easy song parody, you know.
Speaker 1 (27:24):
Instead of hitting right on team you know what They
really hitching the fields, don't you.
Speaker 2 (27:29):
They hate right in the fields that.
Speaker 9 (27:31):
My favorite mascot, Trunch used to do the back clips
and dumps off the stirtle round tampallin and he was
my timmate Goldie. You're not putting Goldbie up there for
the Minnesota.
Speaker 2 (27:43):
Goldie, Nah, Goldies. I would put Goldie in.
Speaker 1 (27:47):
I would put the Golden Golfer mascot in over louse
Seal if you missed it, big news here Hall of
Fame Weekend. Louse Seal the giants mascot put in the
Hall of Fame embarrassing. It really tarnishes every other great
mascot in the Hall of Fame.
Speaker 2 (28:04):
When you put lou Seal in the hall, that's a joke.
Speaker 9 (28:09):
Head around like he was, uh, some kind of possessed

Speaker 11 (28:57):
Hello to all my fans and all my constituous Uh,
Aaron Rodgers just want to stay, you know, out there
saying something because he already know he's not gonna play good.
Come on now, forty two years of babe.
Speaker 1 (29:12):
That don't make no sense to just if you just average,
the Steelers are gonna win nine ten games just being average.
Speaker 2 (29:19):
They always win nine or ten games being average.
Speaker 11 (29:22):
Where they might win more than where they got a
good defense and they might win more.
Speaker 1 (29:25):
Than allegedly that's the allegations they have a good defense,
but they actually have to play like that.
Speaker 2 (29:29):
That's the problem.
Speaker 11 (29:30):
Yeah, yeah, And Nkoli, he's just there, man. You know
some folks they have all luck. I wish I had
to keep playing sports if they get paid like they
getting paid today.
Speaker 2 (29:39):
Ben and whine and you know, now, what was you?
What was your sports? Big daddy? Back in the.
Speaker 11 (29:44):
Day, I played a little baseball, you know, and a little
football in my abs and slowed me down from both
of those.
Speaker 1 (29:49):
Yeah, well, if you got to ask me, I think
baseball be the way to go, because it's not too much.
Speaker 11 (29:53):
It would have been that ball. Shoot the way they
throwing that ball. Man, sometimes you might not be get Wait, you.
Speaker 2 (30:01):
Gotta you got a glove though, yeah, catch it.
Speaker 11 (30:04):
And another thing I didn't like. Now, let me get
up there and better. I don't want to be a.
Speaker 2 (30:13):
I don't know what the context you're getting at here,
but I hear you. I hear you.
Speaker 5 (30:16):
But what does that mean.
Speaker 11 (30:20):
When you're from both sides of the other?
Speaker 2 (30:23):
Oh, you're like ambidextrous something.
Speaker 11 (30:27):
I definitely don't know what that is.
Speaker 2 (30:30):
That's the same, the same thing.
Speaker 11 (30:32):
It's all right, Okay, I got to start reading a
little bit more. I'm waiting. I'm waiting on your Lebron,
you know.
Speaker 2 (30:40):
Oh, I'll do that right now.
Speaker 1 (30:41):
So, so the Lebron, now Lebron James. There's a photo
that has been making the rounds here Lebron in the
south of France, and he's on a yacht, because well,
what else would you do if you're in the south
of France. So Lebron's on a yacht, and he's on
a yacht, and he's with the Koli Jokic's agent, and
(31:03):
there's a there's some chatter that Jokic and Lebron are
going to team up.
Speaker 2 (31:07):
This is on the gram.
Speaker 1 (31:10):
Agent posted a photo of him, the agent, with Lebron,
James and the guy riding Lebron James coattails Maverick Carter
and had a caption that said, the summer of twenty
twenty five the perfect time to make big plans for
the fall of twenty twenty six.
Speaker 2 (31:31):
All massive.
Speaker 1 (31:32):
Oh man, holy crap. I don't see Lebron going to
Denver though? Do you think Lebron would play in Denver?
I don't see that.
Speaker 2 (31:41):
Yo're gonna give him the best deal. Jokic isn't gonna
go to the Lakers.
Speaker 1 (31:45):
So they're gonna meet somewhere else, meet in the middle,
somewhere else. Who knows that's where Ben. It's a juicy
lucy is what that is? Which is the burger I
had when I met Hollering James as a cheeseburger with
cheese in the middle, so they have actual cheese in
the middle.
Speaker 2 (32:01):
It's beauty. That sounds intense. That's great there, that's like
stuff crust, but burger the signature version of the food
in Minnesota. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (32:09):
Solid, not good for your gut and your your arteries
and all that, but it's it's delicious, absolutely delicious.
Speaker 2 (32:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (32:15):
So that's the Lebron chatter. Lebron's got his eye on
the mountains or does.
Speaker 2 (32:19):
He have his eye in the mountains?
Speaker 1 (32:21):
And so the agent someone I've never heard of in on.
Speaker 2 (32:26):
Social media, but there there is people sent us me.
You see did you see what Jok's agent said? Oh
my god, oh man, that's gonna that's gonna lead a speculation.
Of course that's what they want. They want the speculation.
So I don't see Lebron.
Speaker 1 (32:41):
I don't see a world Lebron ends up in Denver,
So it would have to be Jokic and Lebron going
somewhere else.
Speaker 2 (32:47):
YadA, YadA, YadA. Right, it is the.

This is a job for Carmen sand all right, so
she can she can uncover the mystery so that we

show talking about baseball. Listen, I have to say one thing, okay,
because baseball they just had the Hall of Fame induction,
all right, and baseball is a real Hall of Fame.
It's a real where they have standards and you know,
(34:59):
they they make you wait. All I have to say
is four out of the five, no, three out of
the five. But CEC. I respect CC, but it was
kind of close. Are coming from the Classic Baseball Era Committee.
You know, this is like a stickler point, you know
for some baseball folks.
Speaker 9 (35:16):
So they like it's like.
Speaker 12 (35:17):
Their tenth ballots and they're getting in, you know. And
it's all I have to say is that I'm happy
for everybody.
Speaker 1 (35:23):
Well, listen, Andre, the Hall of Fame's of business. They
got to get people in there every year. They gotta
have people coming to Cooperstown, New York every year. So
you gotta have people in the Hall of Fame. You
gotta you gotta bring in different, you know.
Speaker 2 (35:35):
Generations of players. That's why they do it.
Speaker 1 (35:38):
But yeah, like even like Billy Wagner who was on
the ballot forever and then his last year of eligibility,
he gets in the Hall of Fame. I am gonna
yap more about the Hall of Fame next hour. In
the monologue all rant about that as each row is
very entertaining as he Yet we'll leave it there, but

That is the question. What is the answer? Let's see

(38:06):
Fozzy from alf the Alien Opiner shaneon moingoing with Ichi
ro Manu Genobili who is forty eight today from Late

Speaker 1 (38:30):
Edgar Martinez from Robbie the Mariner, Fan Ham Porter, guest
by Big Greg and Iowa, Christian and Karnacione from Andy

JT the Wingman, says Maxwell Klinger of the Toledo mud Hens.
Speaker 2 (38:49):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (38:49):
Listener from Ohio sent me Jta a mud Hens hat.
I think of Clinger when I wear that. All right,
do you have an answer, Lorraine?
Speaker 2 (38:56):
Yes.
Speaker 8 (38:57):
One of my favorites from two thousand and two is
Hurston waldrip.
Speaker 2 (39:00):
Ben Okay, No, that is incorrect.
Speaker 1 (39:03):
The highest flyball rate of any player with at least
one thousand play appearances since twenty oh two, that's when
they first started tracking the data. That would be White
Sox legend, the Big Hurt Frank Thomas.
Speaker 2 (39:14):
Frank Thomas is the answer here.
Speaker 11 (39:17):
We got Mallard, how about that?
Speaker 2 (39:20):
The three guys this.
Speaker 6 (39:23):
Is one Big Ben gets grilled.
Speaker 5 (39:26):
Cripple, Adam Schefter reported on Saturday that Jill Mixon will
remain on the Texans non football injury list for an
extended period and will be evaluated closer to the season.
That leaves the Texans with the shell of Nick Chubb
and a bunch of nobody's in the backfield. Ben Is
this going to be a problem for the Texans?
Speaker 2 (39:43):
No, I do not believe it's going to be a problem.
Here's the way I look at this.
Speaker 1 (39:46):
The Texans underachieved last year considering the expectations going into
the year. They were up and down last season. And
then if you're gonna have an injury, the running back
position is.
Speaker 2 (39:58):
Where you want to have it. That is an inner
change Jebel position.
Speaker 1 (40:01):
It's not ideal that Nick Chubb is out, and uh,
you know that's that's that's not you know, Joe Mixon
is out. You got Nick Chobb, You've got other people there.
You should If the offensive line's good and the cornerback
play from CJ. Stratus pretty good, you can interchange that position,
so they'll be all right next.
Speaker 5 (40:20):
Evan Ingram set in an interview over the weekend that
it was easy being first in the building or kind
of got a theme here this weekend.
Speaker 2 (40:25):
Yes, yes, first in the building and the quarterback of
the Titans. Yes.
Speaker 5 (40:29):
But Evan Ingram, the former tight end of the Jaguars
current tenant of the Broncos, that it was easy being
first in the building with the Jaguars, but it's tough
to do with the Broncos. Ben, do you think this
says more about the Jaguars players or the way Doug
Peterson ran the team.
Speaker 1 (40:41):
I am so sick of hearing first in the building.
I want to bang my head against the wall to
the bled schoop. Okay, I don't care if you're first
in the building. You got to get the working Okay,
I don't care your first in the building. All it's
like a you know what measuring contest coop first in
the building.
Speaker 2 (40:57):
It's a ridiculous.
Speaker 1 (40:58):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (40:58):
You know.
Speaker 1 (40:59):
The Jags have their problems, but it doesn't matter if
they show up earlier or not.
Speaker 2 (41:02):
They're not good.
Speaker 5 (41:03):
Next steph Curry sett in a recent podcast that he
thinks NBA playlot players are underpaid and that they always
will be until the CBA allows for them to participate
in the rise of equity of the teams.
Speaker 2 (41:13):
Then do you think that will ever happen. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (41:15):
I also think overnight sports talk radio hosts are underpaid.
Also yeah, shocking. You ask anyone they think they're underpaid.
Who's gonna say they're not underpaid. It's never gonna happen.
It's owner versus employee. Stop, how do we do he
passes on the back or won the game. Oh?
Speaker 2 (41:35):
I think they actually fix this well
