at a benching for quarterback to a tongue of balla

Speaker 2 (00:29):
Yes, we will spin the malor wheel of speculation. And
what are the chances that Sibby as the motes Tony
Romo during the NFL seasons? Some chatter online that Romo
is more worried about golfing than he is broadcasting. Go
there as well, settle in on this Wednesday. It's our
(00:50):
number two. The South Beach benching, Well, not quite a benching,
but we're headed that direction. Welcome in the beginning of
another hour of the Ben Mather Show.
Speaker 1 (01:05):
As we are bed fellows who.
Speaker 2 (01:09):

powerful microphones of FSR booming all around this little blue
marble emanating live from the hog as we have a

season is over. The Knicks have won the championship. They
gave out T shirts and hats and all the merch
and they're gonna raise a banner. So all you guys
freaking out about, oh my god, the NBA season is
going to go on forever.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
No, it's not. They just gave a championship. You can't
keep playing when you give out a championship.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
But our lead this hour from South Beach, and we
have a mantra on this show, bad sports makes good
sports radio. And so, after getting molly wopped in Pittsburgh
by the weather, not by the Steelers by the weather
as they turned into teal popsicles, and the Dolphins now
being decommissioned from the playoff race in the AFC, so
(03:30):
head coach Mike McDaniel hinting that a change under center
is coming down the pike. And if you didn't hear this,
perhaps not. He was somewhat vague about it. However, the
tone is important Here here is the very well spoken
head coach of the Dolphins.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
You hear the question and the answer.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
Here's Mike McDaniel being asked about a possibility of making
a change under center take a list.
Speaker 3 (03:57):
Are you considering a quarterback change this week?
Speaker 4 (04:00):
Well, I think the quarterback play uh last night was
not good enough and so for me, everything's on the table.
Speaker 5 (04:09):
And who would you consider going to if you make
a change?
Speaker 4 (04:13):
Well, I think that. You know, we're in the process
of game planning for the Cincinnati Bengals. So in that process,
we're trying to determine who'll give us the best chance
to win. And I'll probably give you more clarity on
that tomorrow. As we are I think fourteen hours removed
(04:35):
from the game.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
Well not anymore. We're doing the overnight show, so we're
more than fourteen hours. But I always that was a
SoundBite there. And does anyone say and awe more than
Mike McDaniel, Is there anyone I play a lot of
these coaching sound bites from different coaches.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
I don't know anyone. One of my.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
Favorite radio shows when I was a kid, they used
to goof on the um and Oz the athletes had
said the um and the OZ and this guy would
have had the old guy used to listen.
Speaker 1 (04:59):
To the radio, had a few day with Mike McDaniels.
So again you heard it.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
He was asked point blank whether the Dolphins would make
a quarterback change, and he said the quarterback play last
night meeting in the Monday night game was not good enough.
So everything is on the table. That is a good
jumping off point. Let us get into this and discuss
the question for the esteem panel.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
What do you read in? What do you read.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
Into the Dolphins head coach hinting at a benching on
the horizon for two a tongue of Ayilawa. So my observations,
I've got thoroughbred racehorse, magic eraser and the mench on
the bench, and we will combine all of these things
(05:43):
together and we are going to have a Smorgasborg is
what we're going to have.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
Unbelievable. So number.
Speaker 2 (05:52):
Number the benching seed has been planted.
Speaker 1 (05:59):
If you've ever done any gardening, you plant the seed.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
Now not every time you plant the seed does the
seed turn in to profit.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
Got a lot of farmers.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
I've met you guys over the years, a lott of
you in the Midwest are working on farms, getting up early,
doing the things you have to do, and I do
appreciate that. That day when it was Minnesota's, a really
nice couple was there and they had farmers, they had
a family farm, and they were like the last in
the generation, and the kids wanted nothing to do with it.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
And so I don't know what. I haven't heard for
them in a while.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
It's been a couple of years, but I remember having
a very nice conversation. But the point is, if you farm,
if you're a farmer and you plant the seed. In
our little world of sporty talk, when you plant the seed,
and that's been planted in South Florida, once the seed
hits the soil in this case, the nice beaches and
the Sandy Beach is there in South Beach, the quarterback
(06:52):
is already halfway into the transfer port at that point,
and they're going to give that quarterback the.
Speaker 1 (06:59):
Tools of it.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
Ignoran, It's a clipboard and a headset, and then that's it.
Speaker 1 (07:04):
And over my.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
Couple of years, you give or take a couple of
years doing this job, this becomes a self fulfilling prophecy.
When you get this kind of a vague statement. The
moment you talk about the possibility of benching the big
money quarterback, the clock starts ticking louder than a microwave
(07:29):
just after three in the morning. This chapter, it's not
a great chapter, but this chapter of the Dolphins has
been a boone doggle with a capital B, big B
boone doggle. The Dolphins, for reasons beyond comprehension, handed to
(07:50):
a tongue of Aila two hundred and twelve million US dollars.
And now they're looking back at that. Ras in Miami
is looking back at that, and they're looking at the receipt.
Speaker 1 (08:04):
And they're like, wait a minute. I mean, we.
Speaker 2 (08:06):
Thought we bought a racehorse, a thoroughbred racehorse, and it
turns out we got a horse that has bad legs.
Speaker 1 (08:16):
That's what we got. Look at the cold hard.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
Numbers for Tua the last nine games, that's more than
half the season. Tua ten touchdowns, eleven interceptions, a passer
rating of eighty one. That is your two hundred million
dollar quarterback. That is not elite. That is a Kale
Smoothie is what that is. That's Kille Smoothie football. Nobody
(08:40):
wants kill Smoothie football. That's what that is. Miami eliminated
from playoff consideration and so the season is a wrap.
Speaker 1 (08:49):
Now.
Speaker 2 (08:49):
The plan B, which Mike McDaniel didn't want to mention
because everyone would have started laughing. The Plan B in
this boondoggle would be Jets cast off Zach Wilson. Yep,
that Zach Wilson. Zach Wilson. Which is when you have
Zach Wilson or what TUA is giving you, it's kind
of like choosing do I want to go to the
(09:09):
electric chair or would I'd rather have a nice lethal injection?
Speaker 1 (09:13):
Which one would be better for me? Yeah? Sure?
Speaker 2 (09:15):
Now, Now Zach Wilson his camp, and I've heard this
from a couple of people.
Speaker 1 (09:19):
I deal with who are in that world.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
The belief among the people around Zack Wilson is he
is going to ride the coattails of Daniel Jones, that
he's his playing. The people around him they're going to
campaign for him to be the Daniel Jones of twenty
twenty six. Daniel Jones went to Minnesota for a little
bit after the Giants fired him, and then he went
to Indianapolis and played well for about seven games and
(09:43):
then fell apart after that and then got hurt.
Speaker 1 (09:46):
But he wants to be that, right.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
Daniel Jones for a couple of games became Indiana Jones,
a folk hero in the Hoosier State Redemption Avenue. It
was all there, It was all there, and even that
pipe dream of ended because Daniel Jones forgot to pray
and he ended up going to the Temple of Doom
and his season was over. But now the Dolphins, they
(10:09):
never used the word bench. They didn't use the word bench.
They didn't say, hey, we're gonna bench Tua certainly whispered it.
The implication was made by Mike McDaniel. And the whispers
get louder, and they go faster, louder and faster the whispers.
And so this is also keep in mind another nail
(10:30):
in the coffin. If the Dolphins do this, it is
another nail in the coffin for Boy Wonder, the coffee
Drinking Mike podcast hosting aman a coach, the Umanah coach,
Mike McDaniel, who was brought in as the whiz kid,
the offensive genius Boy Wonder from the forty nine ers,
(10:50):
and then he was gonna.
Speaker 1 (10:51):
Scheme up to h and the Dolphins were gonna let the.
Speaker 2 (10:54):
Good times roll, the good times, and I'm gonna go
to a higher level.
Speaker 1 (10:59):
And how's that working out?
Speaker 6 (11:02):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (11:02):
Not good?
Speaker 6 (11:02):
All right now?
Speaker 2 (11:03):
Now staying in Miamy Page two, though, we stay in Miami.
And whether he's benched now or later, I have a
feeling we'll be talking about this a lot these next
couple of shows this week is you know, this is
our Wednesday show, and we've got a couple of shows
left in the week, and this will be a story
that we revisit. But that makes that whether he's benched
immediately or they wait another week to bench to a
(11:24):
it's all but carved in stone that he will be
exiting stage left from South Beach, which begs the question.
And here it is, if to a tongue of I
LOA is truly d O and E with the Dolphins,
where does he end up next? So I wrote on
(11:46):
the back of a napkin while watching the NBA Cup,
because I'm a loser, I wrote on the back of
a napkin. There that the people around to here's how
you sell to it. He's twenty eight years young, he's
not even thirty. He's still got prime years left in
his football career. He led the NFL on passing yards
(12:09):
a couple of years ago with the Dolphins, he led
the NFL and completion percentage another season in Miami. All
that jazz, all that jive, right, all that jib. He
just needs a change of scenery. They'll say, like you
just put them in a different set of laundry, and
all of a sudden, it's like a magic eraser and
(12:29):
abra cadabra, hocus pocus. We're on our way. We're on
our way there. Good luck on that.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
Of course, the spin doctors have their version.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
Now we live in a little town called Realityville, and
the whispers point out that Tua has got popcorn problems.
They keep popping up here to his arm strength is
a flatter than week old soda, So good luck on that.
And a lot a lot of ducks. He loves ducks.
He loves throwing wounded ducks. The interception to a through
(13:02):
in the Monday night game against the Steelers was example
one of the examples of that.
Speaker 1 (13:06):
It was just not good.
Speaker 2 (13:08):
There a lot of floaters, a lot of floaters, and
you don't like to see those in the toilet.
Speaker 1 (13:13):
And you know what I'm saying, anyway. So it's just bad.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
It's bad, bad, bad, bad, bad bad bad, And the
vibe Tua has settled in to being the last couple
of years dependably boring, is what he's now. I am
the mayor of Realityville. Tua is the mayor of Dolesville.
It's a little town next to Realityville. It's called Dolesville.
(13:37):
And once the temperature dips below forty degrees in Dolesville,
forget about it. The what you ma call it does
not work. It just doesn't. The whole system freezes. It's
like a busted vending machine, is what it is. And
so where does he land? Where does Tua land? You
know how we decide these things. The Malor wheel of
(13:59):
spec Yeah, we're gonna spin the malar wheel.
Speaker 1 (14:01):
Of specular round round, big money, big money, big money,
No webbies.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
Stop, all right, the Malor wheel of speculation. Now, if
you look at it right now, and the wheel stop
right you can see it because it's on the radio.
Speaker 1 (14:11):
Oh you can't see it because the raid.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
So the wheel is stopped, and you look at this,
and Tua packing his bags right now, he's getting fitted
for some new merch as the magic Malar wheel of
speculation says warm weather only is what it says, warm
weather only. That's what it says on the magic malar
wheel of speculation. Here that means Saints Raiders, Cardinals, Rams.
(14:37):
Oh no, not the Rams. Climate controlled football. The malar
wheel of speculation is never wrong. It is never very wrong.
The malar wheel of speculation, it is not so cold
weather teams need not apply.
Speaker 1 (14:51):
We are talking limited.
Speaker 2 (14:52):
It's like back in the old days in baseball they
had the American League had the designated hitter and the
National League had the pitcher hitting. So if you were
a designated it or you were limited to about half
the teams in baseball. If you're TUA, you can't play
in any cold weather environment. Not that the Patriots need
a quarterback, but Baltimore, the Patriots, the Jets, the Giants,
(15:12):
they're out right. You can't go there. You can't go
to Cleveland because it's too cold there in the wintertime.
So you could go to like Detroit because they've got
a dome where you could go to Minnesota somewhere like that.
But I'm gonna go Saints Raiders, Cardinals, Rams, Climate controlled
of Football. Tua's next chapter is not about upside, it's
about sunshine.
Speaker 1 (15:32):
It's about such and a dome. We'll take a dome.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
You play a dome anyway, all right, final point to
the boom tube. We go what we're talking boobs the
boob tube. So let's start with the apparent grassroots. So
I got one of the big fans of the show
is in the Boston area.
Speaker 1 (15:52):
His name is Mike. I don't mention his name right.
Speaker 2 (15:55):
Everybody sends me stories and I usually don't right back
because I'm a douche. But he sent me a story
about people have been very upset with Tony Romo. So
I fell down this rabbit hole, and it does appear
there's a grassroots movement to boot Tony Romo from the
number one.
Speaker 1 (16:13):
Chair on CBS.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
Now a few media pundits have gone scorched earth on
mister Romo that he has regressed as a broadcaster. He's regressed.
Claims have been made that he has spent more time
golfing working on his putting than he has on his
preparation for the television job.
Speaker 1 (16:33):
So there's also been some support for J. J. Watt.
Speaker 2 (16:38):
Yes that JJ Watt of Houston, Texans Fame to be
promoted to the top chair on those broadcasts. So the
question becomes, what are the chances that CBS.
Speaker 1 (16:52):
Demotes Tony Romo.
Speaker 2 (16:55):
During this NFL season? There's three weeks ago, and then
CBS has got a bunch of playoff games, So what
are the chances that Romo gets demoted?
Speaker 1 (17:04):
All right? So I'm when I when I saw this.
Speaker 2 (17:07):
I was like, Okay, this is really and then I
kept reading about it and I was learning more about it,
and I was just laughing inside.
Speaker 1 (17:12):
I'm laughing. I'm not laughing outside. By inside, I'm laughing.
I'm coughing up confetti.
Speaker 2 (17:18):
Is what I'm doing here as a proud back in
the day Romo sexual when Tony played for the Dallas
Cowboys and we had a talk show to do on
a daily basis back in his Dallas days. Let's let's
check in on the Mallards Sportsbook the odds of Tony
Romo being demoted by CBS during the season. Barring some
(17:41):
kind of Sharon Moore type scandal, we are going to
go Malard Sportsbook odds zero point zero zero, as in
squad douche bumpkis.
Speaker 1 (17:57):
Okay, that's what we're going with.
Speaker 2 (17:58):
Goose Egg donut, no frosting, nothing extra on the doughnut.
Speaker 1 (18:04):
That's what we're going with.
Speaker 2 (18:07):
That's a great sound bite that's from those days, that
comes from that era of the Ben Malers Show. We
had so many great callers back then, and there's only
a couple of them on the left, like Blind Scott
some other guys that were part of that era on
the show. So a little birdie with a very big beak,
A little birdie with a big beak tells me. The
bosses at the Columbia Broadcasting Systems, better known by their
(18:30):
gangster name CBS, are smitten kittens with Tony Romo. Tony
Romo described as the mench on the Bench. No, he's
not Jewish, the mench on the bench, Prince Charming of
the telestrator.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
He is bewitching to those that he's around.
Speaker 2 (18:50):
And even if he wasn't all of those things, even
if he was a schmuck like Bill Belichick. Right, here's
the killer to the grassroots movement. BBS is paying, for
better or worse, Tony Romo eighteen million dollars per season.
He is signed through twenty thirty. So if you do
(19:12):
the math and if you demote him, that's fine, you
still have to pay him. CBS would have to pay
Romo to be a number two or number three broadcaster
or unemployed seventy two million to go away. There's not
enough barbecue sauce in the entire state of Texas because
real barbecue doesn't need sauce. I've tried to explain that
to my wife. She says, no, you need sauce. I said, no,
(19:34):
you don't go to Kansas City, Great Barbecue, Gris Barbecue Town.
Speaker 1 (19:37):
I've been to. It's Kansas City. They don't have sauce.
They don't need the sauce. I mean, it's optional, you
don't have to have it. But anyway, they're not going
to demote him. That's the point. They're not going to
demote Romo.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
It's not happening, not now, and has Romo's act on stale.
Speaker 1 (19:53):
I haven't noticed.
Speaker 2 (19:54):
I flip around a lot, even I know they do
usually their island game there. I really haven't noticed. He
sounds the same to me. I don't hang on Tony
Romo's every word. I'm an adult. I form my own opinions,
so I don't really care what he's saying. But I
know when Romo came onto the scene. He was like
a stick of dynamite. And now people are saying he's
like a sparkler, and I get it. He's been around
(20:16):
for a few years. It's the same jokes every night,
the same props. It's like Carrot Top doing comedy in Vegas,
doing a residency in Vegas, and it's great. You go
see him, you're on vacation from Minnesota. And then next
year you come out he's doing the same bits. Well,
who wants to see that. You've already seen the act.
You know, this is the NFL. But once the way
(20:37):
this normally works, with very few exceptions, once you are in,
it's like the mob. Once you're in, there's only one
way to get out, and it's not you know, it's
not what you think.
Speaker 1 (20:48):
So that's it. I mean, you look around.
Speaker 2 (20:51):
They pretty much super glued to the chair, outside of
Emmett Smith, who was so bad they got rid of
him Ontana. People forget because that was a million years ago.
He tried broadcasting wholely crap did he suck? Drew Brees
has been terrible. He's now back. He got a gig
at Fox. I'm assuming he still blows. I've not seen
any games that he's done yet. It's essentially a no
(21:13):
show job. And as far as like jj Watt, when
did he become God's gift to meathead sportscasting? I don't
when did that happen? There's no guarantee. There is no
guarantee that he's going to be Ribbi, and it's more
likely he'll just be some louder chop liver. It is
the Ben Maler Show. Will take a bunch of these calls.
Eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox is the number
(21:37):
eight seven seven nine nine six six three sixty nine.
If you'd like to be part. Later this hour we

Tony Romo on that broadcast. Robbie the Mariner fan says
Tony Romo has never been good at TV. His eh, No,

(25:25):
let's see here page Dan. I can't read that.
Speaker 5 (25:29):
I only realized recently that I dislike Tony Romo only
when he's calling games that my team is in, because do.
Speaker 1 (25:38):
You think he rips the Broncos or something like that.
Speaker 5 (25:40):
It's just like, I don't know, not he does not
even ripping the Broncos. I just found myself many times
throughout the game being like, oh, shut up. And but
then the other when it's two teams that I don't
care about, I'm I barely even notice him.

I didn't ask how you're doing. Did anyone ask how
you're doing? Nobody asked how you're doing?
Speaker 1 (30:09):
You think why would we care how you're doing?
Speaker 6 (30:12):
You know what I used to do back in the day,
Me and my friend would go to Atlantic City, right,
and then on the way home, we'd wash our hands
in the sink and say, you played basketball. So man,
MAM's gonna kid us.
Speaker 1 (30:27):
Are you bothered that so many people hate you?
Speaker 2 (30:29):
Are you troubled by the fact there's a lot of
people that hate you, Like.
Speaker 1 (30:32):
Blind Scott can't stand you? Are you bother?
Speaker 6 (30:35):
I can't care a blind Scott?
Speaker 1 (30:38):
All right? Hold on a second, I mean put you on.
Hold on.
Speaker 2 (30:40):
Let's see blind Scott. He does not care that you
do not like e dog, Blind Scott. He's not worried
about you.
Speaker 3 (30:46):
Oh yeah, this guy's to more on. Let me tell
you the theory behind I have Behind the dog. He
goes to recovery meetings during the day. This is why
I don't go to meetings anymore, a couch of people
like dogs. He's saying names of women that speak at
meetings and pretending that's his girlfriend.
Speaker 2 (31:01):
Hold is that true, he dog, Blind Scott's claiming that
you're using the names of women from rehab and pretending
like they're in a relationship with you.
Speaker 6 (31:11):
Definitely not. Once again, Scott doesn't know what he doesn't
know what he's talking about. You know, you know, I
got him, I got Helen, I got all right.
Speaker 2 (31:25):
I think those are all names from a song by Scott.
He's now quoting song song lyric explains, Hey.
Speaker 3 (31:37):
I got a question here, does he dog get to
go to the holidays? Like my family won't bring me
the holidays because I'll say something outrageous and I got
to talk to the leper said him straight next hour two.
Speaker 1 (31:46):
Real preflight dog? Are you in the good graces?
Speaker 2 (31:50):
Blind Scott has been excommunicated from his family because of
some decision.
Speaker 6 (31:57):
I'll tell you what. It's a good idea that you
know they do it to him because he's a nuisance.
Speaker 2 (32:02):
Okay, all right, blind Scott, you've been called the nuisance
by dog.
Speaker 1 (32:07):
What are your thoughts on that?
Speaker 3 (32:09):
Hey, you know what Irony told me when Dog came
out of his mother's things. He tried to push your
back in.
Speaker 1 (32:14):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (32:15):
All right, and by the way, blind Scott, just between
us here, can you not that I don't need a
sugar daddy because I don't.
Speaker 1 (32:21):
But can you just tell people I don't don't do that?
I was going to do it, but all right, thank you.
Speaker 2 (32:26):
I don't need I don't need that, uh a dog?
Any final thoughts?
Speaker 1 (32:29):
He dog? In response, you want to finish the song lyrics?
He dog?
Speaker 6 (32:33):
No, I just want to say this. I'm a prognosticator.
I'm not Brian Scott. Is that there's stepper and we
all know that. And no girls like him. They never
liked him. He's stupid. He's a loser and a good piece.
Speaker 2 (32:46):
All right, Blind Scott, he called you a loser and
a no good piece.
Speaker 3 (32:51):
Tell I gotta tell Mike something when he comes up.
But I'm gay, so I don't want woman to like
be that my friend.
Speaker 1 (32:56):
Okay, all right, there you go. What's dog?
Speaker 6 (33:01):
Then he's show us a straight man and I'm straight.
I'm not gay.
Speaker 1 (33:04):
Okay, all right, nobody cares. All right, I think we'll
end it there. Thank you.
Speaker 2 (33:10):
Whatever great, Yeah, Joe the ghost Hunter writes, and he says,
what's with E Dog in Late Night Drug Tester?
Speaker 1 (33:22):
Very odd?
Speaker 2 (33:23):
He is still the worst caller? Are you still there?
Speaker 1 (33:25):
E Dog? Joe the ghost hunder says, you're the worst caller.
Speaker 6 (33:28):
Well, I want to bring Joe Dog into the equation
because this.
Speaker 1 (33:32):
Is this is Joe the ghost Hutter, not Joe Dog.
Speaker 6 (33:34):
I know, but when Joe Dog calls, we'll say the truth.
The truths will come out of you.

the Fox Sports Radio stalking ba humbug is what he says.
Speaker 6 (34:06):

hang off anyone to add.

Yes, Jed wrong, he's the enunciator, fabricator. Dude, you have
to swear ouse when you got those meetings to not

All right, Uh, what's going on here?
Speaker 1 (34:44):
He dog?
Speaker 2 (34:45):
They're claiming that you took an oath. You violated the oath.

McDavid has tallied at least three points in each of
his last four road games against the Penguins. Now Blank

Speaker 5 (40:36):
With the Chargers improving to ten and four despite a
plethora of injuries, there now seems to be a ground
swellow support for Jim Harbaugh to be named coach of
the year.
Speaker 1 (40:43):
Does he deserve it? I love Jim Harbaugh. He has
no chance.
Speaker 2 (40:47):
It's Mike Rabel's award. Mike Rabel is your coach of
the Year for the Patriots. If not Mike Rabel, dare
I say Liam Cohne Duval County in Jacksonville, Harbaugh's not
winning it.
Speaker 1 (40:58):
Next.
Speaker 5 (40:58):
As we approach the end of the regular season in
the NFL, if you were to redo the twenty twenty
five draft, who would you take number one?
Speaker 1 (41:04):
Overall? All right?
Speaker 2 (41:05):
So the draft, if you look at the first round,
it was horrific. I mean, there's hardly anybody making any
kind of impact. The only one that really stands out
is Ted McMillan of the Carolina Panthers as your offensive
Rookie of the year. Cam Ward is to quote himself
here ask for the Tennessee Titans.
Speaker 1 (41:23):
So I think it's it's him. McMillan is the guy.
Speaker 2 (41:27):
I don't know that I drafted number one, but there's
nobody else that's having any real impact.
Speaker 1 (41:31):
Next.
Speaker 5 (41:32):
Cardinals coach Jonathan Gannon was asked about his job security
on Monday. He first tried to sidestep the question, then said,
I believe in myself and I believe in our team.
He said, they're gonna get out of this dipped ben
is Gannon cooked.
Speaker 2 (41:43):
Well, the Cardinals will get out of the fun dip
they're in right now. I promise you they will be
good again. He will not be coaching them when they're
good again. So that's the answer. Coup, how did we
do you pass?
Speaker 1 (41:53):
I won again.
Speaker 2 (41:54):
I believe though Mike in Tucson I want to gain,
Yet I won
Boom shaka Laca.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
It's our number two, our number two. It is a
quarterback shake up on the horizon, some four shocks out
of Miami developing hot dot dot dot. What do you
read in to the Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel hinting, hinting
at a benching for quarterback to a tongue of balla
(00:22):
Also if to a tongue of our loa is truly
d O n E with the Dolphins?
Speaker 1 (00:28):
Where does he end up next?
Speaker 2 (00:29):
Yes, we will spin the malor wheel of speculation. And
what are the chances that Sibby as the motes Tony
Romo during the NFL seasons? Some chatter online that Romo
is more worried about golfing than he is broadcasting. Go
there as well, settle in on this Wednesday. It's our
(00:50):
number two. The South Beach benching, Well, not quite a benching,
but we're headed that direction. Welcome in the beginning of
another hour of the Ben Mather Show.
Speaker 1 (01:05):
As we are bed fellows who.
Speaker 2 (01:09):
Are hanging out here together and enjoying all the crunchy
goodness we provide on an hourly basis, coast to coast,

So we got through the basketball, We survived that no
one died. Last hour as the Knicks congratulations, the NBA
season is over. The Knicks have won the championship. They
gave out T shirts and hats and all the merch
and they're gonna raise a banner. So all you guys
freaking out about, oh my god, the NBA season is
going to go on forever.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
No, it's not. They just gave a championship. You can't
keep playing when you give out a championship.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
But our lead this hour from South Beach, and we
have a mantra on this show, bad sports makes good
sports radio. And so, after getting molly wopped in Pittsburgh
by the weather, not by the Steelers by the weather
as they turned into teal popsicles, and the Dolphins now
being decommissioned from the playoff race in the AFC, so
(03:30):
head coach Mike McDaniel hinting that a change under center
is coming down the pike. And if you didn't hear this,
perhaps not. He was somewhat vague about it. However, the
tone is important Here here is the very well spoken
head coach of the Dolphins.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
You hear the question and the answer.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
Here's Mike McDaniel being asked about a possibility of making
a change under center take a list.
Speaker 3 (03:57):
Are you considering a quarterback change this week?
Speaker 4 (04:00):
Well, I think the quarterback play uh last night was
not good enough and so for me, everything's on the table.
Speaker 5 (04:09):
And who would you consider going to if you make
a change?
Speaker 4 (04:13):
Well, I think that. You know, we're in the process
of game planning for the Cincinnati Bengals. So in that process,
we're trying to determine who'll give us the best chance
to win. And I'll probably give you more clarity on
that tomorrow. As we are I think fourteen hours removed
(04:35):
from the game.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
Well not anymore. We're doing the overnight show, so we're
more than fourteen hours. But I always that was a
SoundBite there. And does anyone say and awe more than
Mike McDaniel, Is there anyone I play a lot of
these coaching sound bites from different coaches.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
I don't know anyone. One of my.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
Favorite radio shows when I was a kid, they used
to goof on the um and Oz the athletes had
said the um and the OZ and this guy would
have had the old guy used to listen.
Speaker 1 (04:59):
To the radio, had a few day with Mike McDaniels.
So again you heard it.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
He was asked point blank whether the Dolphins would make
a quarterback change, and he said the quarterback play last
night meeting in the Monday night game was not good enough.
So everything is on the table. That is a good
jumping off point. Let us get into this and discuss
the question for the esteem panel.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
What do you read in? What do you read.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
Into the Dolphins head coach hinting at a benching on
the horizon for two a tongue of Ayilawa. So my observations,
I've got thoroughbred racehorse, magic eraser and the mench on
the bench, and we will combine all of these things
(05:43):
together and we are going to have a Smorgasborg is
what we're going to have.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
Unbelievable. So number.
Speaker 2 (05:52):
Number the benching seed has been planted.
Speaker 1 (05:59):
If you've ever done any gardening, you plant the seed.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
Now not every time you plant the seed does the
seed turn in to profit.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
Got a lot of farmers.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
I've met you guys over the years, a lott of
you in the Midwest are working on farms, getting up early,
doing the things you have to do, and I do
appreciate that. That day when it was Minnesota's, a really
nice couple was there and they had farmers, they had
a family farm, and they were like the last in
the generation, and the kids wanted nothing to do with it.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
And so I don't know what. I haven't heard for
them in a while.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
It's been a couple of years, but I remember having
a very nice conversation. But the point is, if you farm,
if you're a farmer and you plant the seed. In
our little world of sporty talk, when you plant the seed,
and that's been planted in South Florida, once the seed
hits the soil in this case, the nice beaches and
the Sandy Beach is there in South Beach, the quarterback
(06:52):
is already halfway into the transfer port at that point,
and they're going to give that quarterback the.
Speaker 1 (06:59):
Tools of it.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
Ignoran, It's a clipboard and a headset, and then that's it.
Speaker 1 (07:04):
And over my.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
Couple of years, you give or take a couple of
years doing this job, this becomes a self fulfilling prophecy.
When you get this kind of a vague statement. The
moment you talk about the possibility of benching the big
money quarterback, the clock starts ticking louder than a microwave
(07:29):
just after three in the morning. This chapter, it's not
a great chapter, but this chapter of the Dolphins has
been a boone doggle with a capital B, big B
boone doggle. The Dolphins, for reasons beyond comprehension, handed to
(07:50):
a tongue of Aila two hundred and twelve million US dollars.
And now they're looking back at that. Ras in Miami
is looking back at that, and they're looking at the receipt.
Speaker 1 (08:04):
And they're like, wait a minute. I mean, we.
Speaker 2 (08:06):
Thought we bought a racehorse, a thoroughbred racehorse, and it
turns out we got a horse that has bad legs.
Speaker 1 (08:16):
That's what we got. Look at the cold hard.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
Numbers for Tua the last nine games, that's more than
half the season. Tua ten touchdowns, eleven interceptions, a passer
rating of eighty one. That is your two hundred million
dollar quarterback. That is not elite. That is a Kale
Smoothie is what that is. That's Kille Smoothie football. Nobody
(08:40):
wants kill Smoothie football. That's what that is. Miami eliminated
from playoff consideration and so the season is a wrap.
Speaker 1 (08:49):
Now.
Speaker 2 (08:49):
The plan B, which Mike McDaniel didn't want to mention
because everyone would have started laughing. The Plan B in
this boondoggle would be Jets cast off Zach Wilson. Yep,
that Zach Wilson. Zach Wilson. Which is when you have
Zach Wilson or what TUA is giving you, it's kind
of like choosing do I want to go to the
(09:09):
electric chair or would I'd rather have a nice lethal injection?
Speaker 1 (09:13):
Which one would be better for me? Yeah? Sure?
Speaker 2 (09:15):
Now, Now Zach Wilson his camp, and I've heard this
from a couple of people.
Speaker 1 (09:19):
I deal with who are in that world.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
The belief among the people around Zack Wilson is he
is going to ride the coattails of Daniel Jones, that
he's his playing. The people around him they're going to
campaign for him to be the Daniel Jones of twenty
twenty six. Daniel Jones went to Minnesota for a little
bit after the Giants fired him, and then he went
to Indianapolis and played well for about seven games and
(09:43):
then fell apart after that and then got hurt.
Speaker 1 (09:46):
But he wants to be that, right.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
Daniel Jones for a couple of games became Indiana Jones,
a folk hero in the Hoosier State Redemption Avenue. It
was all there, It was all there, and even that
pipe dream of ended because Daniel Jones forgot to pray
and he ended up going to the Temple of Doom
and his season was over. But now the Dolphins, they
(10:09):
never used the word bench. They didn't use the word bench.
They didn't say, hey, we're gonna bench Tua certainly whispered it.
The implication was made by Mike McDaniel. And the whispers
get louder, and they go faster, louder and faster the whispers.
And so this is also keep in mind another nail
(10:30):
in the coffin. If the Dolphins do this, it is
another nail in the coffin for Boy Wonder, the coffee
Drinking Mike podcast hosting aman a coach, the Umanah coach,
Mike McDaniel, who was brought in as the whiz kid,
the offensive genius Boy Wonder from the forty nine ers,
(10:50):
and then he was gonna.
Speaker 1 (10:51):
Scheme up to h and the Dolphins were gonna let the.
Speaker 2 (10:54):
Good times roll, the good times, and I'm gonna go
to a higher level.
Speaker 1 (10:59):
And how's that working out?
Speaker 6 (11:02):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (11:02):
Not good?
Speaker 6 (11:02):
All right now?
Speaker 2 (11:03):
Now staying in Miamy Page two, though, we stay in Miami.
And whether he's benched now or later, I have a
feeling we'll be talking about this a lot these next
couple of shows this week is you know, this is
our Wednesday show, and we've got a couple of shows
left in the week, and this will be a story
that we revisit. But that makes that whether he's benched
immediately or they wait another week to bench to a
(11:24):
it's all but carved in stone that he will be
exiting stage left from South Beach, which begs the question.
And here it is, if to a tongue of I
LOA is truly d O and E with the Dolphins,
where does he end up next? So I wrote on
(11:46):
the back of a napkin while watching the NBA Cup,
because I'm a loser, I wrote on the back of
a napkin. There that the people around to here's how
you sell to it. He's twenty eight years young, he's
not even thirty. He's still got prime years left in
his football career. He led the NFL on passing yards
(12:09):
a couple of years ago with the Dolphins, he led
the NFL and completion percentage another season in Miami. All
that jazz, all that jive, right, all that jib. He
just needs a change of scenery. They'll say, like you
just put them in a different set of laundry, and
all of a sudden, it's like a magic eraser and
(12:29):
abra cadabra, hocus pocus. We're on our way. We're on
our way there. Good luck on that.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
Of course, the spin doctors have their version.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
Now we live in a little town called Realityville, and
the whispers point out that Tua has got popcorn problems.
They keep popping up here to his arm strength is
a flatter than week old soda, So good luck on that.
And a lot a lot of ducks. He loves ducks.
He loves throwing wounded ducks. The interception to a through
(13:02):
in the Monday night game against the Steelers was example
one of the examples of that.
Speaker 1 (13:06):
It was just not good.
Speaker 2 (13:08):
There a lot of floaters, a lot of floaters, and
you don't like to see those in the toilet.
Speaker 1 (13:13):
And you know what I'm saying, anyway. So it's just bad.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
It's bad, bad, bad, bad, bad bad bad, And the
vibe Tua has settled in to being the last couple
of years dependably boring, is what he's now. I am
the mayor of Realityville. Tua is the mayor of Dolesville.
It's a little town next to Realityville. It's called Dolesville.
(13:37):
And once the temperature dips below forty degrees in Dolesville,
forget about it. The what you ma call it does
not work. It just doesn't. The whole system freezes. It's
like a busted vending machine, is what it is. And
so where does he land? Where does Tua land? You
know how we decide these things. The Malor wheel of
(13:59):
spec Yeah, we're gonna spin the malar wheel.
Speaker 1 (14:01):
Of specular round round, big money, big money, big money,
No webbies.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
Stop, all right, the Malor wheel of speculation. Now, if
you look at it right now, and the wheel stop
right you can see it because it's on the radio.
Speaker 1 (14:11):
Oh you can't see it because the raid.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
So the wheel is stopped, and you look at this,
and Tua packing his bags right now, he's getting fitted
for some new merch as the magic Malar wheel of
speculation says warm weather only is what it says, warm
weather only. That's what it says on the magic malar
wheel of speculation. Here that means Saints Raiders, Cardinals, Rams.
(14:37):
Oh no, not the Rams. Climate controlled football. The malar
wheel of speculation is never wrong. It is never very wrong.
The malar wheel of speculation, it is not so cold
weather teams need not apply.
Speaker 1 (14:51):
We are talking limited.
Speaker 2 (14:52):
It's like back in the old days in baseball they
had the American League had the designated hitter and the
National League had the pitcher hitting. So if you were
a designated it or you were limited to about half
the teams in baseball. If you're TUA, you can't play
in any cold weather environment. Not that the Patriots need
a quarterback, but Baltimore, the Patriots, the Jets, the Giants,
(15:12):
they're out right. You can't go there. You can't go
to Cleveland because it's too cold there in the wintertime.
So you could go to like Detroit because they've got
a dome where you could go to Minnesota somewhere like that.
But I'm gonna go Saints Raiders, Cardinals, Rams, Climate controlled
of Football. Tua's next chapter is not about upside, it's
about sunshine.
Speaker 1 (15:32):
It's about such and a dome. We'll take a dome.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
You play a dome anyway, all right, final point to
the boom tube. We go what we're talking boobs the
boob tube. So let's start with the apparent grassroots. So
I got one of the big fans of the show
is in the Boston area.
Speaker 1 (15:52):
His name is Mike. I don't mention his name right.
Speaker 2 (15:55):
Everybody sends me stories and I usually don't right back
because I'm a douche. But he sent me a story
about people have been very upset with Tony Romo. So
I fell down this rabbit hole, and it does appear
there's a grassroots movement to boot Tony Romo from the
number one.
Speaker 1 (16:13):
Chair on CBS.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
Now a few media pundits have gone scorched earth on
mister Romo that he has regressed as a broadcaster. He's regressed.
Claims have been made that he has spent more time
golfing working on his putting than he has on his
preparation for the television job.
Speaker 1 (16:33):
So there's also been some support for J. J. Watt.
Speaker 2 (16:38):
Yes that JJ Watt of Houston, Texans Fame to be
promoted to the top chair on those broadcasts. So the
question becomes, what are the chances that CBS.
Speaker 1 (16:52):
Demotes Tony Romo.
Speaker 2 (16:55):
During this NFL season? There's three weeks ago, and then
CBS has got a bunch of playoff games, So what
are the chances that Romo gets demoted?
Speaker 1 (17:04):
All right? So I'm when I when I saw this.
Speaker 2 (17:07):
I was like, Okay, this is really and then I
kept reading about it and I was learning more about it,
and I was just laughing inside.
Speaker 1 (17:12):
I'm laughing. I'm not laughing outside. By inside, I'm laughing.
I'm coughing up confetti.
Speaker 2 (17:18):
Is what I'm doing here as a proud back in
the day Romo sexual when Tony played for the Dallas
Cowboys and we had a talk show to do on
a daily basis back in his Dallas days. Let's let's
check in on the Mallards Sportsbook the odds of Tony
Romo being demoted by CBS during the season. Barring some
(17:41):
kind of Sharon Moore type scandal, we are going to
go Malard Sportsbook odds zero point zero zero, as in
squad douche bumpkis.
Speaker 1 (17:57):
Okay, that's what we're going with.
Speaker 2 (17:58):
Goose Egg donut, no frosting, nothing extra on the doughnut.
Speaker 1 (18:04):
That's what we're going with.
Speaker 2 (18:07):
That's a great sound bite that's from those days, that
comes from that era of the Ben Malers Show. We
had so many great callers back then, and there's only
a couple of them on the left, like Blind Scott
some other guys that were part of that era on
the show. So a little birdie with a very big beak,
A little birdie with a big beak tells me. The
bosses at the Columbia Broadcasting Systems, better known by their
(18:30):
gangster name CBS, are smitten kittens with Tony Romo. Tony
Romo described as the mench on the Bench. No, he's
not Jewish, the mench on the bench, Prince Charming of
the telestrator.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
He is bewitching to those that he's around.
Speaker 2 (18:50):
And even if he wasn't all of those things, even
if he was a schmuck like Bill Belichick. Right, here's
the killer to the grassroots movement. BBS is paying, for
better or worse, Tony Romo eighteen million dollars per season.
He is signed through twenty thirty. So if you do
(19:12):
the math and if you demote him, that's fine, you
still have to pay him. CBS would have to pay
Romo to be a number two or number three broadcaster
or unemployed seventy two million to go away. There's not
enough barbecue sauce in the entire state of Texas because
real barbecue doesn't need sauce. I've tried to explain that
to my wife. She says, no, you need sauce. I said, no,
(19:34):
you don't go to Kansas City, Great Barbecue, Gris Barbecue Town.
Speaker 1 (19:37):
I've been to. It's Kansas City. They don't have sauce.
They don't need the sauce. I mean, it's optional, you
don't have to have it. But anyway, they're not going
to demote him. That's the point. They're not going to
demote Romo.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
It's not happening, not now, and has Romo's act on stale.
Speaker 1 (19:53):
I haven't noticed.
Speaker 2 (19:54):
I flip around a lot, even I know they do
usually their island game there. I really haven't noticed. He
sounds the same to me. I don't hang on Tony
Romo's every word. I'm an adult. I form my own opinions,
so I don't really care what he's saying. But I
know when Romo came onto the scene. He was like
a stick of dynamite. And now people are saying he's
like a sparkler, and I get it. He's been around
(20:16):
for a few years. It's the same jokes every night,
the same props. It's like Carrot Top doing comedy in Vegas,
doing a residency in Vegas, and it's great. You go
see him, you're on vacation from Minnesota. And then next
year you come out he's doing the same bits. Well,
who wants to see that. You've already seen the act.
You know, this is the NFL. But once the way
(20:37):
this normally works, with very few exceptions, once you are in,
it's like the mob. Once you're in, there's only one
way to get out, and it's not you know, it's
not what you think.
Speaker 1 (20:48):
So that's it. I mean, you look around.
Speaker 2 (20:51):
They pretty much super glued to the chair, outside of
Emmett Smith, who was so bad they got rid of
him Ontana. People forget because that was a million years ago.
He tried broadcasting wholely crap did he suck? Drew Brees
has been terrible. He's now back. He got a gig
at Fox. I'm assuming he still blows. I've not seen
any games that he's done yet. It's essentially a no
(21:13):
show job. And as far as like jj Watt, when
did he become God's gift to meathead sportscasting? I don't
when did that happen? There's no guarantee. There is no
guarantee that he's going to be Ribbi, and it's more
likely he'll just be some louder chop liver. It is
the Ben Maler Show. Will take a bunch of these calls.
Eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox is the number
(21:37):
eight seven seven nine nine six six three sixty nine.
If you'd like to be part. Later this hour we

you a Romo sexual? The great quote, Hey Jeb from
Tony Romo on that broadcast. Robbie the Mariner fan says
Tony Romo has never been good at TV. His eh, No,
(25:00):
Jim has been annoying from day one. Jj Watt truly
would be better. And he's not fantastic either, Okay, so
why bother? If he's not fantastic? Who cares? It's a
here and also Nature Boy says two words for the
Dolphins for next year, George Pickens. Well, he would be perfect,
he would be absolutely perfect. Yeah, there you go. All right,
(25:25):
let's see here page Dan. I can't read that.
Speaker 5 (25:29):
I only realized recently that I dislike Tony Romo only
when he's calling games that my team is in, because do.
Speaker 1 (25:38):
You think he rips the Broncos or something like that.
Speaker 5 (25:40):
It's just like, I don't know, not he does not
even ripping the Broncos. I just found myself many times
throughout the game being like, oh, shut up. And but
then the other when it's two teams that I don't
care about, I'm I barely even notice him.
Speaker 1 (25:54):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (25:55):
Yeah, they most of these guys annoyed me so much.
Speaker 1 (25:59):
I like Kevin.
Speaker 2 (26:00):
There's a few broadcasters i'll listen to it be like,
oh that that's pretty good, and I admit it. Ol
Michaels is one of them. On Thursday Night, Kevin Harlan.
I don't mind Joe Buck and Aikman, They're okay. I'll
listen to Tarico and Collinsworth A kind of goof on
him because Collinsworth is very goofable. But like other than that,
(26:21):
I usually just heye, they have the sound down, or
I'm flipping around, so I'm not really paying attention.
Speaker 1 (26:25):
To what they're saying. Steve Wright said.
Speaker 2 (26:26):
He says Ben, the all night security guards who listen
to and then he mentioned a competitor of ours, what's
the over under? And how many times they heard the
Pittsburgh Miami score fifty plus? Thank god for the Ben
Maler show. It reminds all night security guards they are
not alone. That's right, Endry this show. No Ai, we're

Speaker 1 (30:09):
You think why would we care how you're doing?
Speaker 6 (30:12):
You know what I used to do back in the day,
Me and my friend would go to Atlantic City, right,
and then on the way home, we'd wash our hands
in the sink and say, you played basketball. So man,
MAM's gonna kid us.
Speaker 1 (30:27):
Are you bothered that so many people hate you?
Speaker 2 (30:29):
Are you troubled by the fact there's a lot of
people that hate you, Like.
Speaker 1 (30:32):
Blind Scott can't stand you? Are you bother?
Speaker 6 (30:35):
I can't care a blind Scott?
Speaker 1 (30:38):
All right? Hold on a second, I mean put you on.
Hold on.
Speaker 2 (30:40):
Let's see blind Scott. He does not care that you
do not like e dog, Blind Scott. He's not worried
about you.
Speaker 3 (30:46):
Oh yeah, this guy's to more on. Let me tell
you the theory behind I have Behind the dog. He
goes to recovery meetings during the day. This is why
I don't go to meetings anymore, a couch of people
like dogs. He's saying names of women that speak at
meetings and pretending that's his girlfriend.
Speaker 2 (31:01):
Hold is that true, he dog, Blind Scott's claiming that
you're using the names of women from rehab and pretending
like they're in a relationship with you.
Speaker 6 (31:11):
Definitely not. Once again, Scott doesn't know what he doesn't
know what he's talking about. You know, you know, I
got him, I got Helen, I got all right.
Speaker 2 (31:25):
I think those are all names from a song by Scott.
He's now quoting song song lyric explains, Hey.
Speaker 3 (31:37):
I got a question here, does he dog get to
go to the holidays? Like my family won't bring me
the holidays because I'll say something outrageous and I got
to talk to the leper said him straight next hour two.
Speaker 1 (31:46):
Real preflight dog? Are you in the good graces?
Speaker 2 (31:50):
Blind Scott has been excommunicated from his family because of
some decision.
Speaker 6 (31:57):
I'll tell you what. It's a good idea that you
know they do it to him because he's a nuisance.
Speaker 2 (32:02):
Okay, all right, blind Scott, you've been called the nuisance
by dog.
Speaker 1 (32:07):
What are your thoughts on that?
Speaker 3 (32:09):
Hey, you know what Irony told me when Dog came
out of his mother's things. He tried to push your
back in.
Speaker 1 (32:14):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (32:15):
All right, and by the way, blind Scott, just between
us here, can you not that I don't need a
sugar daddy because I don't.
Speaker 1 (32:21):
But can you just tell people I don't don't do that?
I was going to do it, but all right, thank you.
Speaker 2 (32:26):
I don't need I don't need that, uh a dog?
Any final thoughts?
Speaker 1 (32:29):
He dog? In response, you want to finish the song lyrics?
He dog?
Speaker 6 (32:33):
No, I just want to say this. I'm a prognosticator.
I'm not Brian Scott. Is that there's stepper and we
all know that. And no girls like him. They never
liked him. He's stupid. He's a loser and a good piece.
Speaker 2 (32:46):
All right, Blind Scott, he called you a loser and
a no good piece.
Speaker 3 (32:51):
Tell I gotta tell Mike something when he comes up.
But I'm gay, so I don't want woman to like
be that my friend.
Speaker 1 (32:56):
Okay, all right, there you go. What's dog?
Speaker 6 (33:01):
Then he's show us a straight man and I'm straight.
I'm not gay.
Speaker 1 (33:04):
Okay, all right, nobody cares. All right, I think we'll
end it there. Thank you.
Speaker 2 (33:10):
Whatever great, Yeah, Joe the ghost Hunter writes, and he says,
what's with E Dog in Late Night Drug Tester?
Speaker 1 (33:22):
Very odd?

Speaker 1 (33:25):
E Dog? Joe the ghost hunder says, you're the worst caller.
Speaker 6 (33:28):
Well, I want to bring Joe Dog into the equation
because this.
Speaker 1 (33:32):

Yes, Jed wrong, he's the enunciator, fabricator. Dude, you have
to swear ouse when you got those meetings to not
say people's names. I don't care if these people fix
for real. They're embarrassed by beating.

All right, Uh, what's going on here?
Speaker 1 (34:44):
He dog?
Speaker 2 (34:45):
They're claiming that you took an oath. You violated the oath.
Jed who fled just took a shot at you.

Well, let me explain some of you. When I go
to these meetings, okay, yeah, okay, I don't go there
to get girls. Okay, I go there for's sobriety.

his last four road games against the Penguins. Now Blank

With the Chargers improving to ten and four despite a
plethora of injuries, there now seems to be a ground
swellow support for Jim Harbaugh to be named coach of
the year.
Speaker 1 (40:43):
Does he deserve it? I love Jim Harbaugh. He has
no chance.
Speaker 2 (40:47):
It's Mike Rabel's award. Mike Rabel is your coach of
the Year for the Patriots. If not Mike Rabel, dare
I say Liam Cohne Duval County in Jacksonville, Harbaugh's not
winning it.
Speaker 1 (40:58):
Next.
Speaker 5 (40:58):
As we approach the end of the regular season in
the NFL, if you were to redo the twenty twenty
five draft, who would you take number one?
Speaker 1 (41:04):
Overall? All right?
Speaker 2 (41:05):
So the draft, if you look at the first round,
it was horrific. I mean, there's hardly anybody making any
kind of impact. The only one that really stands out
is Ted McMillan of the Carolina Panthers as your offensive
Rookie of the year. Cam Ward is to quote himself
here ask for the Tennessee Titans.
Speaker 1 (41:23):
So I think it's it's him. McMillan is the guy.
Speaker 2 (41:27):
I don't know that I drafted number one, but there's
nobody else that's having any real impact.
Speaker 1 (41:31):
Next.
Speaker 5 (41:32):
Cardinals coach Jonathan Gannon was asked about his job security
on Monday. He first tried to sidestep the question, then said,
I believe in myself and I believe in our team.
He said, they're gonna get out of this dipped ben
is Gannon cooked.
Speaker 2 (41:43):
Well, the Cardinals will get out of the fun dip
they're in right now. I promise you they will be
good again. He will not be coaching them when they're
good again. So that's the answer. Coup, how did we
do you pass?
Speaker 1 (41:53):
I won again.
Speaker 2 (41:54):
I believe though Mike in Tucson I want to gain,
Yet I won
