It's our number two, our number two on this Friday,
and it's back to Michaeh. Parsons one more time. The story.
Everyone's talking about it. We were yapping all night about it.
What do you make of Micah Parsons removing the Cowboys
logo from his bio on social media? In a brew
haha with Jerry Jones, We'll use some psychobabble on that. Also,

(00:25):
quarterback Matthew Stafford practice again. The Rams head coach Sean
McVay is giddy. He said, no restrictions, looks like the
stud We know what is your read on that quote
and what are your impressions on the NFL looking to

Speaker 1 (00:44):
That's a big story this week as well. We'll go
there here.

Speaker 2 (00:46):
It is our number two, the old scrubb a dub dub.
Welcome in the beginning of another.

Speaker 1 (00:56):
Hour of the Ben Malor Show.

Speaker 3 (00:58):
We are in the air everywhere, Viva Las Vegas, fellow denizens,
as we race a mile a minute coast the coast, border,
the border, and beyond.

Speaker 2 (01:11):
On the vast and nourishingly powerful microphones of fs are
amminating live from the beast as we unleash the beast
of banter here from the Fox Sports Radio studios.

Speaker 1 (01:25):
Somewhere kind of near Fremont Street. That's all we're saying.

Speaker 2 (01:29):
Secret location, secret location, as approved by Rob in Vegas.
Who knows Rob expected to be at the malve meet
and greet as a social media star expected to be there,
and he knows that this show made possible in part
by our friends at ti i rak.

Speaker 1 (01:44):
For over forty years, ti Iraq.

Speaker 2 (01:47):
Has been helping customers find the right tires for how,
what and where they drive, ship fast and free back
by free road hazard protection with convenient installation options like
mobile tire installation, tire i act dot com. That's right,
I see over there alf tirerac dot com. The way
tire buying show'd be so our lead. This hour, we

(02:10):
continue our in depth team coverage of the story that
everyone's talking about here. The it's on the social network,
so that is where the temperature is rising around Micah Parsons,
the great drama orama of our times in the NFL,
the story feeding the content machine. We continue around the clock, breathless,

(02:31):
breathless attention to this story. So last hour, if you
were listening thank you. If you weren't listening, bad job
by you.

Speaker 1 (02:38):
Where were you?

Speaker 2 (02:39):
But last hour we talked about the verbal sparring between
Jerry Jones and Micah Parson's agent, and I think you
know where we're going now, but maybe not so the
latest turn of events, the latest turn events between Michah
Parsons and Jerry Jones.

Speaker 1 (02:55):
It was a curveball. It was a curveball, right? What
is that? For some? Now?

Speaker 2 (03:01):
For others it was the most expected thing, as it
is a paint by number situation.

Speaker 1 (03:06):
So Michael Parsons good to the point.

Speaker 2 (03:08):
Michael Parsons made some changes to his personal social media
accounts on Thursday night.

Speaker 1 (03:16):
And what did you do? So he started on X.

Speaker 2 (03:20):
Now, as you know, X used to be known as Twitter,
and then Elon Musk got it and he said, wow,
we're gonna call it X. And then some people still
call it Twitter, but there are a lot of people
now call it X and I call it AX. But
then it's a weird thing because you call it X
but you still send tweets out. But how could you
send tweets out? Because it's not Twitter anymore, so wouldn't
it be x's But you can't send x's out because

(03:40):
that's somebody used.

Speaker 1 (03:42):
To day anyway, So it started on X.

Speaker 2 (03:44):
Micah Parsons removed the Cowboys from his bio o MG,
and he replaced the phrase t b D.

Speaker 1 (03:55):
He put that in there. That was the replacement.

Speaker 2 (03:56):
So instead of the cowboy yeah, oh my god, oh
it's a who done it? He replaced his profile photo
with a Bible verse.

Speaker 4 (04:08):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (04:09):
Oh man, oh, this is like a murder mystery, crime mystery.

Speaker 1 (04:14):
It's got religious overtones.

Speaker 2 (04:16):
So on his Instagram account, his personal Instagram account, Michael
Parsons also gave the old boot said bye bye to
the Dallas Cowboys from his bio as well.

Speaker 1 (04:28):
So I said, that's it, We're done. I did see
like a Penn State photo was on there and whatnot.

Speaker 2 (04:34):
But anyway, so let us discuss the question what do
you make of Micah Parsons removing the Cowboys logo from
his social media pages in this brew haha with Jerry Jones.
So my views on this, I've got Barnes and Noble
Monster Truck and Red Beret and we'll connect all of

(04:57):
these things together and we're going to make a one
arm bandit where they make the most you know in
Vegas here they make the most money off those penny slots.
They make more money off penny slots. That is a
suckers game. Do you ever walk into a casino and
you see all those slot machines. There's a reason for it.
They make more money off those than anything else. All right, Now,

(05:18):
my first thought on this though, Michael Parsons did not
just scrub the Cowboys from his bio. He took a
Brillo pad to the star, a Brillo pad to the star,
the brand, the badge, the very idea, the very idea
of Dallas, to the soul. One minute, he's the face

(05:39):
of the Cowboy Defense, Michael Parsons face of the franchise.
The next T B D, T B D, and he's
posting scripture and peace signs like he's entering the Monk
era of his life. You know how like musicians go
through different eras, right, they're lovers.

Speaker 1 (05:58):
Of the devil and they love God and then they
do other stuff.

Speaker 2 (06:00):
And so to football players like Michael Barsons is now, well,
now I'm in my spiritual monk era of my career.

Speaker 1 (06:08):
Now.

Speaker 2 (06:08):
In NFL jargon, okay, in NFL jargon, it is a
digital middle finger. The bird is the word, but it
is raped nicely. It is rapped nicely in a Bible verse.
So he's got that. But really, what happened here, I'm
gonna I'm gonna break it down for you, okay, And
we do things a little differently around these parts. We're
not one of those daytime shows. So what happened here

(06:32):
is Michael went to Barnes and Noble. Are there any
other national book chains other than Barnes and Noble. It's like,
it's not a lot, right because people don't really read
books anymore. You're all on your phone, you know, that's
all you're Anyway, Michaeh went to just play with me,
Just just go with me.

Speaker 1 (06:48):
So so Michaeh went.

Speaker 2 (06:50):
With with his buddy, a guy named Phil. They went
to Barnes and Noble. He purchased a cliff notes for
the book, An Idiot's Guide to Athletes unf following teams
on social media, and Parsons bought the book. He highlighted
every chapter and posted the receipts. Chapter one, edit, chapter two, erase,

(07:11):
chapter three, disassociate, good afternoon, good evening, and good night.
It is the Athlete's version of ghosting your ex while
you're still living in the same house.

Speaker 1 (07:21):
House.

Speaker 2 (07:22):
That's what it is, right, It's like, you know, I'm
not with that person anymore.

Speaker 1 (07:25):
I'm gonna ghost them, but I'm still living there.

Speaker 2 (07:28):
In the age of the digital breadcrumb, every deletion, every
deletion of a cowboy logo is a declaration. The scrub
is the scream. The unfollow is the ultimatum. Am I
being too dramatic? I've got to talk show to do. Michaeh.
Parsons is telling the Dallas Cowboys pay me, respect my

(07:49):
agent or trade me, but don't pretend we're still good,
because we're not good anymore. And the social media cleanse
was so thorough, it was so thorough it could have
been sponsored by mister Clean, right, mister Clean could have
been the corporate sponsor. That was a digital Molotov cocktail

(08:11):
thrown right at Jerry's yacht, his ten gazillion dollar yacht.
That's what that was. So we'll see what happens next.
I maintain my position. I maintain my position that the
deal will get done at the eleventh hour, that we'll
get some Jay Glazer report on the NFL on Fox
pregame show.

Speaker 1 (08:28):
This is juston Jerry Jones.

Speaker 2 (08:31):
Secretly reached out to the agent and there was a
deal done behind closed doors and Mike is going to
sign the contract and all that. Now turning the page.
Another story that we've been following here and back in
LA and that is the Rams and their coach, Sean McVay.
Sean McVay is out there, out of your saw. He's

(08:53):
puffing his chest out like a rooster about Matthew Stafford.
So Matthew Stafford practiced again, and that's big news. You
know things are not going great when just the fact
that your quarterback practiced for a couple of days in
a row, that's like exciting Anyway, McVeigh said, here's the

(09:13):
money quote, no restrictions, No restrictions. Looks like the stud
We know what's your read on that quote? What's your
read on that quote from Sean McVay. So I give
this one some side eye. I give this one some sidy,
Like it's nice that Stafford looks good in August wearing
one of those red jerseys.

Speaker 1 (09:35):
It says, do not touch. I've got the cooties. Do
not touch. They got the cooties.

Speaker 2 (09:39):
And while the you know, they're rushing two hand touch
flag football while you're throwing the throwing.

Speaker 1 (09:46):
The ball like in the NFL.

Speaker 2 (09:47):
I know it's not as violent as it was back
in my day when I was a kid and they
used human torpedoes. But the NFL every snap is a
monster truck edition of Demolition Derby, Monster Truck Edition Demolition Derby.

Speaker 1 (10:02):
And I didn't watch the ram Prejdice.

Speaker 2 (10:05):
But from what I understand, and maybe I'm wrong on this,
maybe he was out there. I didn't see the Niners.
I didn't see the Niners Nick Bosa breathing, breathing down
Matthew Savage's neck.

Speaker 1 (10:14):
I didn't see that.

Speaker 2 (10:16):
I don't think Leonard Williams of the Seahawks was running
around and trying to impress our friend JJ from written,
I don't think that was going on. He wasn't like, well, no,
Streudinas might be watching. I better go get a second
because he wasn't there. And while what Sean McVay said
may be true, I was like, well, there's the stud
we thought he would be.

Speaker 1 (10:36):
That's great.

Speaker 2 (10:37):
It's important to remember that it doesn't change the big picture.
The big picture continues to be that Matthew Stavord's back
is a tender box, but not the dating app. It's
a tinder box, and the guy is one bad twist
away from being dun Skies and the Rams, and as

(10:57):
I think the Rams will, we find during the regular season,
even if Stafford goes down, down down for the count,
the issue is long along down the line. In the playoffs,
you got to get that problem. And the division is
not very good. Set's Seattle's pretty much thrown in the
towel with Sam Darnold. That guy blows and they've got
alligator Arms Murray down there in Arizona, so they're not

(11:19):
really trying. And the forty nine Ers paid brock Purty,
which means they're not really trying to win either. So
the Rams by default are still in good position even
without a quarterback, even without a Quebec Seattle and have
a quarterback. Arizona doesn't have quarterback, and the forty nine Ers.

Speaker 1 (11:32):
Don't really have a quarterback.

Speaker 2 (11:34):
So the Rams are hanging their entire season on Matthew
Stafford's spine holding up and Jimmy g Not sneezing the
wrong way. So it is a house of cards situation
is what it is and that's right.

Speaker 1 (11:49):
All right?

Speaker 2 (11:49):
Now final thought to the rules police. We go go
to the rules police. So I thought this was interesting,
and I don't know if you saw it or not.
The NFL officiating rules and Walt Anderson, who I think
is a thousand years old now. So Walt Anderson discussed
players celebrations and he said the league wants to crack

(12:09):
down on inappropriate celebrations.

Speaker 1 (12:11):
Uh oh, what whoe?

Speaker 2 (12:14):
And he gave a couple of statistics in the process
or process. Now, you gotta understand that we like statistics
because we do the who Am I Game and the
instant trivia, But statistics are the easiest thing in the
world to manipulate and twist around. That being said, here
is the quote from Walt Anderson representing the NFL. He said,

(12:37):
from the standpoint of our taunting, he said it was
up I believe about fifty five percent last year.

Speaker 1 (12:43):
There was fifty five percent more taunting.

Speaker 2 (12:45):
He said, unsportsmanlike gestures, whether they were simulating or brandishing
a gun or inappropriate gestures like a throat slash. Well,
you don't want to you want to cut somebody's head off.
You don't want to behead them or he said unfortunate
sexual gestures that were made. Those were up almost one

(13:06):
hundred and thirty three percent, according to Walt Anderson.

Speaker 1 (13:09):
So I can go on and on here, get to
the point please.

Speaker 2 (13:12):
So the point is that this is now a point
of emphasis for the NFL.

Speaker 1 (13:17):
The NFL is going in. The season begins in less
than two weeks.

Speaker 2 (13:20):
Now, forget these fugazy exhibition games like the real season,
and so this is where they're emphasizing, emphasizing the focus.
So question for the esteem panel, what are your impressions
on the NFL looking to crack down on players celebratory gyrations,
because that's really what this is about. So the NFL

(13:41):
owners are pulling out the red beret. It's a little
bit of a data reference. But there was this classic
TV show back in the day, which is still on
in streaming. You can watch the show and whatnot. There
was a character named Rerun who had this red beret
right and a show I it was called What's Happening
or whatever.

Speaker 1 (13:57):
That's what this is a rerun. This is a rerun.
So here we go again.

Speaker 2 (14:00):
The NFL's back in business, baby, they're back. They're heading
down No Fun Highway. No fun league is returning. You
can't have that scary throat slash because that will encourage someone.

Speaker 1 (14:11):
You know, somebody will watch that.

Speaker 2 (14:13):
I say, well, I never wanted to cut somebody's throat,
but now I saw an NFL player pretend to cut
somebody's throat, so now I want to cut somebody's throat.
We cannot have a guy pretending to shoot a finger
gun because somebody might decide to go out and buy
a gun because they saw somebody in the NFL shoot
a finger gun.

Speaker 1 (14:27):
We all know that's how violence begins.

Speaker 2 (14:29):
And we cannot have a little hip thrust because if
somebody scores a touchdown, little Johnny, who probably sees that
fifty times worse on his phone, cannot see that. And
we certainly cannot have any bumping and grinding in the
air by an NFL player because we know that will
of course lead to people who are not engaging in
adult activities to go out and engage in adult activities anyway. Listen,

(14:53):
Roger Goodell is now the sheriff again. He's the gesture sheriff.
He's the moral police sees all that, and so wide
receivers better not do that. You know that wrong nose,
white thing. You can't do that. You can't pretend like
you're snorting coke. You can't do that. And the other
thought I had when I was coming into the studio
here was how great this is for John Moran.

Speaker 1 (15:16):
Oh, are you talking about Joe Buran start a football player.
You're stupid. That's why you're doing overnights. You don't know
that Jo Buran plays basketball. Yes, I do, stupid.

Speaker 2 (15:24):
The reason I bring up John Morant we did several
monologues on John Morant because he kept getting in trouble
for fake Molotov cocktails, lobbing, fake hand grenades, all that stuff.
So John Morant is now officially to for my purposes,
and you can call up and disagree, but for my purposes,
he is the first NBA player to inspire the NFL

(15:46):
to enforce a rule, because you know, the NFL's.

Speaker 1 (15:48):
Like, well, John Moran was doing it.

Speaker 2 (15:49):
And these these Jabbroni's in the NFL, they love basketball,
so they're gonna they're gonna try to be like John Morant.

Speaker 1 (15:55):
And he's not because of how he plays. It's because
he made a lot.

Speaker 2 (15:59):
He was very good at finger guns, and that's you know,
taboo in the NFL is now banning it and all
that stuff, and so what's next. You know, it got
a guy playing air guitar and he didn't play it
the right way. Maybe I did a little a wrong
move with his hips. I mean, throw a fifteen yard penalty.
If a lineman flexes too hard, that's a problem. And

(16:20):
it reminds me years ago there was one of the
one of the funniest pits we did on the show.
There was this guy named Cam Newton was playing with
Carolina and Cam Newton. I think it was against the
Tennessee Titans, because I remember it was back when so
long ago newspapers were still a big deal, right, And
so some woman in Nashville sent a letter to the
editor complaining that she was at a Titans game.

Speaker 1 (16:43):
I'm pretty sure it was.

Speaker 2 (16:44):
I think I have this story right as I remember,
and she said she was either kids or whatever.

Speaker 1 (16:50):
And Cam Newton scored a touchdown and he.

Speaker 2 (16:53):
Had pelvic thrusts and arrogant struts, and she was very upset.
She was very upset by his pelvic throat and arrogant struts.
So the NFL now is wait a minute, we got
to go back to that standard. You cannot have pelvic
thrust and arrogant struts. You cannot do it. And on
this one I wanted to who complain. I sent some
messages out during the day. I was like, hey, you

(17:15):
need to complain on this, because you don't all of
a sudden change this and some Unless someone complained, that's
got power.

Speaker 1 (17:21):
So as I was an owner, I mean, there's some
new owners now.

Speaker 2 (17:25):
Some of these owners have croaked, so you got the
next generation that's taken over.

Speaker 5 (17:30):
So was it one of them or the other possibility
is it some sponsor from a part of the world
that's a little more buttoned up than we are, and
they're like, you can't be doing that because we're spending
our money or we're going to spend our money.

Speaker 2 (17:43):
And so I'm not sure. I'm imagining that will come out.
I'm imagining that will come out in the next couple
of days. We'll find out. You know, someone will say, well,
this person was upset and that's why this happened, and
we'll see.

Speaker 1 (17:56):
Cannot wait.

Speaker 2 (17:57):
Cannot wait for your favorite NFL player to score a
touchdown and then do the old pelvic thrust and fifteen
yard penalty fifteen yard penalty. That's it, that's all right.
It is the Ben Malord Show. We're doing it live

and you like, like a good small.

Speaker 1 (23:36):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, of course yeah. So
I don't know if you'll be there.

Speaker 2 (23:40):
I've not heard from Mouthwashed Mike, the star of last
year's mal Or Meat Greed in Vegas. But we we
are here hanging out in Vegas. Will be at the
big event tomorrow. And Jay Dot from Utah, it's gonna
be there. How about that Jay Dot? So we got
Jay Dot. That's a big star. J Dot's the guy
that got into a dust up at a hotel in

(24:00):
Salt Lake.

Speaker 1 (24:01):
And remember he was facing like some serious.

Speaker 2 (24:04):
Jail time and then somehow he only had to go
to jail for like a little bit and he got
back out. But he was giving us legal updates. He
was giving us. It was like a crime true crime
mystery on the show. Jay Dot was giving us updates
of his legal drama and not normally something that people
advise you to do, to give out details of your
legal case on a radio show while it's going on.

Speaker 4 (24:26):
But he did.

Speaker 2 (24:27):
He didn't is he did it? And Jadeat's actually driving
out from Utah. You know, Salt Lake's not that far away,
well it is actually pretty far, but he's driving down
from Utah.

Speaker 1 (24:37):
He'll be here hanging out with us, and so there
you go. It'll be great.

Speaker 2 (24:42):
Chances Jadatt oversleeps and doesn't make it to the meet
and greet pretty good. Chances are pretty good that Jay
Dot will oversleep and not make it to the meet
and greet. So we'll see how that goes. Bill, who's
your bill rights in? Says hot Dog vendor outside. What
are the odds of that ban? And what are the odds?
He says, I don't know what you're getting at with that?

(25:05):
What else do we have to see? Page don I
can't read that on their Bill's monster is up in Buffalo.

Speaker 1 (25:10):
He's listing, he says.

Speaker 2 (25:12):
The NFL says they're cracking down on excessive celebrations. Meanwhile,
John Morant is out there doing live action GTA and
Harry Styles is selling out stadiums in feather balls. I'm
not sure the real threat to society is a wide
receiver gritty ing for too long. Yeah, now I'm there.
My whole thing is the only rule I would have

(25:34):
is if you're down by a gazillion points, you probably
should not be doing it. You probably shouldn't be doing it. Yeah,
But other than that, I don't care. It's like it
makes for funny stuff on the internet and all that.
So that's that's fine. Anyway, we'll get to the calls
here coming up as you. You've been been in Vegas
for a few hours, Lorendi, you've been around hanging out.

Chipping the queues rights and says eight plus on the
Moullain monologue, Dallas needs to get rid of Micah parses.
Why can't these athletes negotiate without crybabying out loud online
and to the meaning?

Speaker 1 (27:00):

the afternoon in West Holly.

Speaker 1 (27:39):
What were you talking for in the morning? You get
arrested for that?

Speaker 2 (27:42):
Come on, you're walking under West West. In fact, you
have too many clothes on. They kick you out of
West Hollywood.

Speaker 10 (27:46):
What honestly, bathing suits are less than that.

Speaker 1 (27:49):
Yeah, the boots were you were wearing boots. That's a
nice touch.

Speaker 10 (27:52):
I'm going to tell you what my lawyer told me.

Speaker 1 (27:54):
Oh you have you have a lawyer. Yeah.

Speaker 10 (27:56):
I got arrested in Long Beach one time. Really yeah, okay, yeah,
there was a little bit too much. They got something
into my system.

Speaker 9 (28:01):
And my my lawyer said, listen, everyone does drugs sometimes
and things happen. They don't want to make you a criminal.
So I hope little nas X is okay after this,
and this is just a stunt for him.

Speaker 10 (28:14):
I hope they call his grandpa. And now his grandpa
calls him and says, what were you doing? What were
you thinking? Yeah, and really, you know, puts one in
on him.

Speaker 1 (28:22):
What do we know what drugs he was doing? You
know what drugs makes you dance on the street?

what happened here?

Speaker 1 (28:48):
Well, after that he was arrested for battery.

Speaker 2 (28:50):

that that the walking in the underwear was to try
to get out of the battery.

Speaker 9 (28:59):
Well said that he did that stunt and then got
hospitalized for possible OD and then later after I said
that he got arrested.

Speaker 2 (29:08):

all right?

Speaker 2 (29:22):
He says, I don't want to have the radio on
fifty to hear.

Speaker 1 (29:26):
You, Is that right? I mean, I don't understand we
have great studios, do we not? We have solid studios
in Sherman Oaks.

Speaker 10 (29:34):
We turn them up a bit.

Speaker 2 (29:35):
No, no, no, he's no. Douglas is saying I sound
great right now? That whatever Mary, I think that's Douglas
is taking a shot at ulerange that Mary is doing
a great job at the levels. And I also let
the record show that I have done something on this
night that I have not done since I was probably
nineteen years old working at COGO in San Diego. I

(29:56):
didn't really work that worked at the mighty sixth ninety,
but they were a sister station and I was hired
to run the board for San Diego State men's basketball.
I did a couple of games back then, and I'm
sitting at the board here in Vegas and Lorena came
in and we were able my expertise as a former
radio engineer, I was able to find the microphone and
I turned the microphone.

Speaker 10 (30:17):
On and without doing it over the live broadcast.

Speaker 2 (30:20):
Yeah, did not get on the air, and also put
you an audition so you could talk off there with Mary.

Speaker 1 (30:25):
Thank you for that. There you go.

Speaker 2 (30:27):
So if the talk if the talk show thing doesn't
work out, I will end up going back to hitting
buttons out.

Speaker 1 (30:35):
No, No, not bad at all.

Speaker 2 (30:37):
Let's see Keith Ocho, Texas says, make sure to go
to the corner of Flamingo and caval Uh pour out
some liquor.

store and they had rock candy. As possible that they
had that. Let's go to the phones and let's say
hello to any meanie miny mode. Let's go now to
Charlie who's in Wisconsin. Hello Charlie. Welcome back to Charlie.

Speaker 1 (31:40):
How how are you doing, Charlie? If I was any better,
I'd be gambling right now. But I'm not. I'm talking
to you.

Speaker 11 (31:48):
Yeah, you are. I was going to say, I think
I got a little bit of a problem with the
show right now.

Speaker 2 (31:56):
Yeah, why is that my problem? That's your problem, that's
your problem. That's not my problem. I don't have a
problem with the show.

Speaker 1 (32:03):
You've got a problem, don't make your problem.

Speaker 10 (32:05):
Everyone else is a problem.

Speaker 1 (32:06):
Why are you gotta share your business with everyone, Charlie yourself?
What's up with that? Charlie?

Speaker 2 (32:10):
You think the world wants to hear your problems. Everyone's
got their own problems, Charlie. There's guys right now that
have no money. There's guys that they got bad knees,
there's guys you have medical issues that can't and yeah,
we got to worry about your problem, Charlie.

Speaker 11 (32:24):
Well, I'm trying to make this show better. So if
if I tell you my problem, you know you can
probably fix it, you know.

Speaker 2 (32:31):
Oh, so you know I have all the answers because
I have headphones and a microphone, so I can answer
the question. Interesting, Now, are you doing this on your
own or is this a scripted bit? You have been accused, Charlie.
There are people in them, not listen. There are people
in the militia that claim that you are a co
conspirator with the Leprechaun, and you guys cook up bits

(32:54):
for the show, and they often don't go, well, how
do you how do you plead to that?

Speaker 1 (32:57):
Charlie?

Speaker 11 (32:59):
I'm good, I'm gonna go now.

Speaker 1 (33:04):
Bye, Okay, thanks, there you go. That's it. I thought
that's it. Charlie folded. You see that right there?

Folded like a house of cards right there came tumbling down.

Speaker 1 (33:15):
Yeah, I knew it, he says, she's Charlie's got that.

Speaker 2 (33:18):
He's at that nice Midwestern thing where he doesn't once
you call him on his crap, he doesn't know what
to do.

Speaker 1 (33:24):
He's like, oh man, you got me? What am I
gonna do?

Speaker 4 (33:27):

Speaker 4 (34:30):
You're better than that?

Speaker 1 (34:31):
Aren't you better than that? You're better thing? You should
be better than that.

Speaker 2 (34:35):
Didn't the Marriors get squashed when they went to Philadelphia?
By the way, Didn't the Phillies kick the Mariner's ass
all the way across the Delaware Valley and kick them
back out of out of Philadelphia?

Speaker 1 (34:44):
Didn't that happen?

Speaker 4 (34:46):
That did happen?

Speaker 1 (34:47):
That did happen?

Speaker 2 (34:48):
Right? I mean, it was like that looked like, I know,
they look like the Mariners. I know they played that
little league game on Sunday night against the Mets.

Speaker 1 (34:56):
They looked like they.

Speaker 2 (34:56):
Were little league players against the Phillies.

Speaker 4 (35:00):
Hey, we're one half.

Speaker 1 (35:05):
Let me I'm gonna do a baseball monologue next hour.

Speaker 2 (35:08):
There is a move that the cheating Astros made which
is amazing, all right, A.

Speaker 1 (35:12):
Great sign, wonderful sign for the Mariners.

Speaker 2 (35:16):
They sign They signed a guy who's completely washed up
the Astros for their bullpen, which is a sign they're panicking.

Speaker 1 (35:24):
That is a sign they're panic.

Speaker 2 (35:25):
And I know there's not that many games left, about
a month and some change left in the baseball season.
Cal Raley is on pace for fifty nine homers. They're
projecting him in another twelve home runs, twelve more home
runs this season, which makes you very excited.

Speaker 1 (35:42):
What's that.

Speaker 4 (35:43):
It's gonna be tough for him to get them, but
I think he might do sixteen and be a be
a boy of sixty.

Speaker 1 (35:52):
Yeah, well yeah sixty.

Speaker 2 (35:54):
And it's still it's not the cal I will say,
cow's in the league. Cal Raley for the m v
P at this point, and if the Mayors have to
win the division.

Speaker 4 (36:05):
Completely.

Speaker 2 (36:06):
You shut up, shut up there, shut up, shut up,
shut up.

Speaker 1 (36:13):
All right, you are so annoying. Were you born annoying
or did you become annoying? Which one was it? You've
been annoying.

Speaker 2 (36:23):
Okay, at least you have self awareness. You're self aware,
all right, I gotta go, thank.

Speaker 1 (36:28):
You, go away.

Speaker 2 (36:30):
There's the great Jackson in Seattle, and you think he's
got a shrine to cal rally.

Speaker 1 (36:37):
In his in his home, in his room.

Speaker 2 (36:39):
There, he's got the cal rally fat head and all
that nature. Boy answering the Call to the Wild says,
you scared Charlie away. Rob the goat Man says, bring
back the real Charlie.

Speaker 1 (36:54):
The romo sexual. Yeah, well that guy was fun.

Speaker 2 (36:57):
We had a guy, the guy in Dallas this is
he was a cowboys. You're a big cowboy fan of
the Rain, and so you know they had a quarterback
named Tony Romo.

Speaker 10 (37:04):
Heck yeah, I dode and with Troy Aikman.

Speaker 1 (37:07):
Unless he didn't.

Speaker 2 (37:07):
But I was a big fan of Romo and used
to praise him. And then the boys were very upset
that I like Tony Romo, and so they called me
a romo sexual, is what they said.

Speaker 1 (37:21):
I was a romo sexual on.

Speaker 2 (37:22):
That And yeah, exactly, Bill, who's your bills? Really hammered
and keeps sending messages, He says, this nerd Charlie pathetic.
He says he kills it on Rob Parker Show.

Allen Opiner, lou Brock from mister Irrigation, mister wonderful Paul
Orndorf from Robin, Vegas, who was expected to be at
the malled meet and greet tomorrow, Board Hop Benny from

Speaker 7 (40:30):
Course?

Speaker 10 (40:30):
Is Mickey mansell back?

Speaker 4 (40:32):
No?

Speaker 1 (40:32):
What's up?

Speaker 2 (40:33):
Hanley Ramirez is the answer. Hanley Ramirez is the answer?

Speaker 9 (40:38):
All right?

Speaker 3 (40:39):
Ed, get here we go, Here we go, Here we go?

Speaker 1 (40:42):
All right? And the one and only Ian Roddy. What
do we got Ian? What do we have here?

Speaker 12 (40:48):
The Ryans start with this one. Miles Garrett spoke with
the media on Wednesday and refused to address the speeding
ticket he got earlier this month for going one hundred
miles per hour in a sixty Yeah, it was Garrett's
eighth speeding ticket. It's since being drafted. And is this
a big deal or no deal at all?

Speaker 4 (41:03):
Of you?

Speaker 2 (41:04):
Well, so we all like to go over the speed limits,
So I'd say it's it's it's not a big deal.
But the fact that he almost killed himself a couple
of years ago and he's still driving, like because like
usually what happens, You got an accident and then I've
been in a few accidents and you drive a lot slower.
Like it seems like he has not stopped driving. So
it's not a big deal. It's not no deal. It's

(41:24):
it's a little deal. It's a little deal.

Speaker 12 (41:26):
Next I had a new Insider reports suggests that despite
the love affair between Pete Carroll and Gino Smith, that
this is a quote trial season for Gino as his
contract doesn't really bind him to the Raiders for more
than just this season. So Ben, do you think he'll
do enough to be the starter next season as well?

Speaker 1 (41:43):
Uh No, I don't know if you noticed yet. I'm
not a Gino Smith fan.

Speaker 2 (41:48):
I've been sparring with Gino Smith since back in his
day when he when he was playing with the UH
with with West Virginia Zo he won and done next,
hurry up next.

Speaker 12 (41:58):
In the day, since Daniel Jill was named the cult
starting QB, many have speculated that Richardson could be traded. Ben,
Who do you think would actually deal for Anthony richards.

Speaker 2 (42:06):
So Winnipeg Blee bombers Ian the or the team in
Vancouver in British Columbia. I could see him in the
CFL there it is Mallard of the third degree.
