Speaker 1 (00:00):
Ding Dong. It's our number two, hour two of the
original Recipe podcast. Now try the fifth hour podcast that's
on the weekend. But here in our number two Alabama.
Alabama fans are panicking after a disastrous news conference from
coach Kaitlin de Boor in factions of the base calling

(00:21):
for John Gruden to replace him on the sidelines. How
much credence do you give this story about the Crimson Tide?
Also in the NFL Tight End, TJ. Hockinson recently compared
Viking quarterback JJ McCarthy says he's a lot like Matthew Stafford,
a little like Kirk Cousins and does all that sound
to you? And the Chicago Bears being completely left off

(00:44):
the NFL's top one hundred player list is a big
talking point. Are you surprised? We'll go there as well?
Here it is our number two The Bama Wamma Welcome
in the being of another hour of the Ben Malor Show.
We are in the air eyware blathering into the abyss

(01:11):
is well, we try to cook up some awesome sauce.
We'll see if we can do that or not. Coast
to coast, border the border and beyond on the mast
and earic catchingly powerful microphones of fs are ammunating live
from the seat as we are back seat driving from
the world famous Fox Sports Radio studios, as approved by

(01:33):
Anthony in Anaheim, who used to call the show but
now he sold out for these redded day shifts. Bad
job by him. This portion of the show made possible
by our friends at tire Rack. For over forty years,
tire Rack has been helping customers find the right tires
for how, what and where they drive ship fast and free,
which our buddy Fried Daddy likes a lot back by

(01:56):
free road hazard protection with convenient installation options like mobile
tire installation. Just Josh shines off on that tire iraq
dot com the way tire buying should be. So we'll
get back to the spicy conversation about Micah Parsons and
all that. But or leave this out from TUSCA loose
we go where the news of the day takes us

(02:17):
and coaches say the darnedess things Department. Coaches say the
Darness Things Department update. So the embattled in battled collegiate
football coach Klin de Boor is under siege after the
latest misstep. So if you didn't hear about this, Perhaps
I think we have some audio were gonna play. So

(02:38):
Kaylen de Boor, who came to Alabama from Washington, he
attempted to address the pathetic Crimson Tide performance over the
weekend you sought against the seminoles of Florida State and
was asked what the hell happened because he had claimed
a week prior he gave the standard coaching cliche that

(02:59):
they had a really good week of practice at Alabama,
and that's generally a dad giveaway that you're gonna play
well in the game. When the coach says we had
a really good week of practice, that is usually an
indication the coach believes the team is prepared for the
game and they're going to play well. So a reporter
dared bring that up, and Kaitlin de Boor, well, he

(03:23):
was surprised, tike A.

Speaker 2 (03:24):
Lis, you mentioned the great week before the game. Just
how much do you self scout the preparation before games
and other times as a coach where maybe you noticed
during the week that things might not be going the
way that you.

Speaker 3 (03:34):
Want them to. You said, what do you mean, great week?

Speaker 2 (03:37):
A great week? He said, A great week of preparation
for this week. You're saying sorry for going.

Speaker 1 (03:42):
Up to the without a florist. Say, before that game,
I said that, you said that, Yeah, oh yeah, okay,
all right. I was like, oh boy, that's a that's
a tough listen. All right. So and that led gets
even better. So that has led to now they've moved

(04:02):
on from Nick Saban already coming back to Alabama. So
now they've positioned former NFL coach the greatness of the Raiders,
John Gruden. Yeah, so let us discuss the question Alabama
fans panicking panic at the disco after a disastrous back

(04:25):
and forth there kaylend Bor And that's just a little sample.
There are other weird moments there, and there are factions
of the Bama booster base calling for John Gruden to
replace Kaylin de Boor on the sidelines at that sec power.
How much credence do you give the possibility of any

(04:46):
of that happening. So I have carrot cake kettering, Banjo Society,
and burger king and we will combine all of these
things together and we are going to make your Babushka's
favorite twice baked potato, not one time twice baked potato. Yeah,
as approved by sports with Coleman so number. So the

(05:11):
way I look at this, the amount of credence I
give this is gigabytes bandwidth. That's what I give this.
Here Internet chatter, chata chata chatter. So let's start with
the body language of Kailin de Boor. Now, I realize
if you're like blind Scott or blind em It or

(05:32):
any of the legion of the Blind Wing of the
Maltham Militia, you cannot see this Inka terror. Here's the deal,
Kayland bor his body language on this. It looked like
we were watching a man who got caught shoplifting some
peanuts from a pigley wiggly. I said, did I do that?

(05:53):
I don't. I said, that really okay? And so I
love a good meltdown. I love an entitled fan base
that melts down. And Alabama's an entitled fan base. They've
had years and years of Nick Saban, great success and
all that, and you got this Kalin the Boor guy
who's from the Midwest, but he's perceived as a West

(06:15):
Coast guy because he coached in Seattle at Washington and
all that stuff. And it's just great. And so now
they want John Gruden to ride in like a night
in shining armor to save the day. Of course they do.
John Gruden like the shiny toy. It's been sitting on
the Southeastern Conference shelf for a decade, just waiting for

(06:38):
an opportunity, right, waiting. Of course, he did have the
Raider job, and then that went away because of the
email thing. It's like football fried chicken. If you will,
it's greasy, it's probably bad for you. And man, does
it smell good? Boy? Does that smell good? And you're desperate,
you need something, you go for it? Why not? And

(06:58):
let's not forget through the math on this. Kalin Debor's
buyout is north of sixty million. We talked about this
in a previous episode of the show. So if you
do the math on that, they not only got to
pay him that money, but it's one hundred and twenty
million dollar pyramid because you have to pay sixty plus

(07:18):
million to Debor, and then whoever is the next coach
is hopefully not going to be a Bore or a Dbore,
and you're gonna have to pay that coach another sixty
plus million. So it's over one hundred and twenty million
dollar pyramid, and Bama has a game show network problem,
like they're trying to get out of one show that's

(07:40):
that's no one's watching, and now they got to pay
for the next show, but they can't. It's like wheel
of Fortune and then it meets deal or no deal
is essentially what we've got here. So this is what
Alabama fans don't get, is that you can't just pass
around the collection plate on Sunday Service and say all right,

(08:02):
everyone put a couple of bucks in there, and then
we got one hundred and twenty million, boom done. That's it.
You need again, a high falutin nice southern gentleman an
oil baron is what you need with really really deep
Alabama roots, you know, just goes back generations and deep

(08:22):
pockets and all of that. Because right now, and again
I'm not there, I'm just observing from thirty thousand feet,
and from thirty thousand feet it's like, hey, this guy
is Kaylin de Boor. He's into that warm fuzzy stuff.
We don't do warm fuzzy, all right. He's got that
hacuona matada. He's got that vibe right, sunshine and lollipops
and all that stuff and don't worry, we'll get him

(08:44):
next week. And no, they want rage yuh. They want
someone bench, they want someone to lose their scholarship more
than one person. They want a table flip. They want
Nick Saban smashing a headset, throwing it down, very cantankerous
Nick Sabe. That's what they want. So they're not buying

(09:05):
what Klin the Boar is selling at this point. That
made that clear. He's essentially shown up to the tailgate.
They're having a barbecue tailgate in Tuscaloosa, and he's the
guy that said, Hey, I got some good carrot cake
at the tailgate barbecue. So if you want some carrot cake,
I've got that. I'm serving that. And well, no, Kaitlin,
we don't want that. We want barbecue ribs. We'd like

(09:27):
some corn bread, maybe some mac and cheese, some sweet tea.
That's what we would like. We don't want the carrot cake.
We don't. I'm sorry we don't, but I make really
good carrot cake. We don't want that, and I just
I can't. I love the part of the people melting
down like a toddler at a grocery stores. I've already
mentioned Pigley Wiggy, how about a wind Dixie? Had a

(09:47):
wind Dixie? And then they're on the floor and they're crying,
I want my cereal, I want my Coco puffs. Now
you can't have your cocoa. Ba Well, I want Captain Crutch.
You can't have Captain Crutch.

Speaker 2 (10:02):
Now.

Speaker 1 (10:02):
Gruden is a long shot, but not a no shot.
John Grud is a long shot, not a no shot.
If they really want him, Alabama could get him. They could.
Gruden's suing the NFL, and unless they work out some
kind of backroom deal and Cruden gets an NFL coaching
job and ends the lawsuit, that's not gonna happen anytime soon.

(10:22):
So if Alabama really really wants, they can get what
their heart desires here. But there is again very tricky
math on this, and some serious boosters with massive egos
have to get involved to make this work. And until
then the moaning and groaning will not stop. And that's

(10:42):
Alabama football right now. You better win, and if you
stub your toe again and lose again, holy crap. At
least look angry, give the illusion of anger, make it
seem like this really bothers you. Because Kilyn de Bor
he's got the body language will be fine. No no

(11:03):
no no no no no no. All right, Now we
go to the NFL to Minnesota, talk last hour about
the Green Bay Packers and Micah Parsons. Now we have
equal time in broadcasting. We going down of Minnesota where
tight End TJ. Hockinson continues to fill up the content
machine as we pull apart cannibalize a recent interview that

(11:24):
Hockinson did. The tight end recently compared Viking quarterback JJ McCarthy. Yes,
the guy that hasn't started a regular season NFL game,
compared JJ McCarthy to who he said, He's a lot
like Matthew Stafford and a little like Kirk Cousins. And

(11:45):
those are quarterbacks Hockinson has played with in his career,
with the Lions and the Vikings. So how does that
sound to you? How does that send you? So I
know that on the internet the Viking cheerleaders and mister
Irrigation's my advice here. He's a big fan of the
Viking cheerleaders. There. They've gone viral for some very emasculating
reasons recently, the Viking cheerleaders. But it's nice that TJ.

(12:08):
Hockinson is supporting the cheerleaders because it sounds to me
like he's got some purple pom poms for JJ McCarthy,
and it's that's my quarterback. That's my quarterback, and that
is what these guys do. This is one of my
issues with all these comps. And you're doing old man radio.
Let me explain. All right, I'm gonna make my elevator pitch.

(12:28):
I want to see if you agree or disagree with
me on this because it's been a pet peeve of
mine for years. This has been a pet peeve of mine.
So these guys live in the bubble of optimism. They
do bubble of optimism. It's the halo effect. And what
I mean by that is that the player, the young player,
spins nice throw in practice, has one really good skill,

(12:54):
and suddenly it's if Joe Montana and Tom Brady had
a love child, if the science worked out like that,
this would be the quarterback. They never ever compare these
guys to stiffs, like, no one's ever saying if Hawkins
said had come out. I think JJ McCarthy's kind of
reminds me of Christian ponder. Why would you even ponder?
Passing right? And they never say, hey, that guy reminds

(13:16):
me of Tavaris Jackson, that you know, great Viking quarterback.
Remember I remember I was doing this job when he
was there. Oh he sucked. And because that would actually
be honest, you don't do honest, you don't. It's like
every time there's a new band and he's, oh, that's
the next Beatles. They used to say that all the time.

(13:36):
Not so much anymore because Beatles are long in the past,
but they used to, Oh, that's the next Beatles. And
then you'd listen and you'd be like, well, you know,
that's more like smash Mouth. It's a cover band for
smash Mouth. And they're playing at the Kettering Banjo Society gig.
They're warming up and opening up and the only one
in the crowd is justin in Cincinnati. That's it. That's all.

(13:59):
And so Stafford is a Super Bowl champ, whether you
like it or not. He's a Hall of Famer, and
Kirk Cousins is the Scrooge McDuck Hall of Famer, as
he is swimming in piles and piles of guaranteed money.
He's finagled so much money out of these NFL owners,
and you've got McCarthy, who has not thrown a real
pass in a real game in the NFL yet, and

(14:23):
so many people are so horny to find a franchise
quarterback in Minnesota. They're treating McCarthy like he's the second Coming,
the Messiah, the Great Savior. And for now I have
this file as clear clear optimism bias. I do again.
You take one thing and you say, well, that's pretty

(14:43):
polished there, and then maybe he's got some leadership and
suddenly he's stafford or cousins and all that. But in reality,
in Realityville, and I am the mayor of Realityville, he's
far more likely to end up the next Jake Locker,
remember him. Yeah, it's the it's kind of like the
movie trailers where they get on the you're eating your

(15:08):
popcorn if you still go to the movies, and the
movie trailer comes on and they say the best film
since Shaw Shank Redemption. You're, oh, man, that's that was
a good movie, and uh and he's all, that's all
I gotta see that. And you know, darn Tuton, you
know darn Tutin that it's going to be a straight
to Netflix stinker is is what it's going to be.

(15:28):
Starring Adam Sandler and all of his celebrity friends wearing wigs.
That's what it's going to be, right, And you wait,
wake me up and I'll be here. I mean, I'll
be sleeping during the day, but wake me up during
the day. Let me know when McCarthy actually does something
of note, as Eddie used to say in the NFL,
Until then, the comps are Viking fan fiction. Will this

(15:52):
be the weekend he goes out there as a great
opening act as the Viking quarterback in his first game
after a red shirt injury season. Now fine, point to
the propaganda department of the NFL. We go quick, right now,
we'll go click. We're gonna go quick. So the propagated
department of the NFL outrage, outrage, fallout, outrage, fallout. Lucky

(16:15):
Tony not happy, and other Chicago Bear fans like Yaphomian
Tree in Chicago and Phase. They're not happy because follow
up to the top one hundred list made by Terry
in England actually made by NFL players. So five teams
got blank nothing, the Colts, the Titans, the Panthers, the

(16:37):
Saints and Dumb Bears. Now Chicago being completely left off.
The NFL's top one hundred player list. That is the
big talking point. How could they do that? The Bears?
They won the offseason last year. I don't understand. Are
you surprised? Are you surprised the Bears did not end

(16:57):
up with one player on the list. So this thing
is the annual fast food menu of a football filler,
because you're really just trying to fill time and you
come up with a list. I don't need to go
through my rant why people are because a lizard brain

(17:20):
are preconditioned to answer and respond to a list. But
that aside the Bears. If you consider this a fast
food menu of football greatness. The Chicago Bears pulled up
to the drive through at Burger King and they got
a truth whopper that is two slices of bread and

(17:40):
you wish you had some meat on your roster, which
kind of like a wish sandwich. But they got an
empty bag, they got what's in the back, They got nothing, right,
not even a packet of ketchup and a napkin and
some salt. They didn't even get that. Zero for the
Chicago Bears on the top one hundred of the NFL. Now,
we are not surprised and the reason we're not surprised

(18:02):
is because we're very cynical and we know the naked truth.
The naked truth is you are what your record says
you are. And the Chicago Bears played seventeen games and
lost twelve of them last season. Where I come from
in the old country, that blows, and that is a
soggy French fry. Nobody I know wants a soggy French fry.

(18:22):
They don't want that. They want a fresh hot, a
little crisp to the fry. That's what they want. And
this is all opinion based anyway, And so that's the point.
It's opinion based, and it's based on last season and
the production of last season, not the preseason hype machine.
And who would you even put on for Chicago. I

(18:43):
was saying about that, I was making my long drive
in here from the north Woods. It's like, well, Caleb Williams,
that was the number one overall pick and he put
up mostly empty cat real football people know he was
very good last year. Caleb Williams. The stat sheet the
equivalent of eating a whole bag of dorito, and yet
you're still hungry when you finish the bag of Dorito's.

(19:03):
You don't quite understand why because it looked like a
big bag of Dorito's, but you still you're hungry. That's
watching Kidler Wims. He was the twenty fourth ranked quarterback
in the NFL. And that's that's not very good. That's
not very good. And the harsh reality is the Chicago Bears.
They're not the Jags, but they kind of are. They
got a lot of just a guy type players on

(19:25):
that particular team. And the NFL has seven hundred and
forty or seven hundred and four the math, so it's
thirty two teams, eleven starters on offense and defense. So
the math works out to seven hundred and four starters
if you count every position, but don't count the special
teams don't count especially sure, Chicago's got a lot of

(19:47):
Italian sausage filler. There's a lot of Italian sausage filler.
And here's the thing, if you build it, he will come.
I love sausage, by the way, If you build it,
the accolades will start coming in. That's the way. This
word's not that complicated, it's not that hard. It's just sport.
You know that the Bears have the pen in their hand,

(20:07):
and they have the new coach, Ben Johnson. Show me
you're Johnson. They can rewrite the menu, right, rewrite the
menu and all that stuff, But until then, the Bears
get squad douche is what they get. It is the

would be determined to be a bad word. But it's
just a cookie. But it's not a bad cookie. It's
like not low on the cookie scale.

Speaker 4 (24:36):
We're gonna call it a basic bee.

Speaker 1 (24:38):
It's no look the sugar cookie, the fun fetti cookie,
it's not as good as like. To me, I like
the traditional chocolate chip. I'm a traditionalist when it comes
to the cookie. The traditional chocolate chip. I like that.
The cinnamon ones I've been making have him pretty good.
Those have been solid, the cinnamon roll stuff, and that's
not bad.

Yeah, those are pretty good. I'll make those again. Those
are not too hard to make anyway. You don't really
care about that, So yeah, Late Night Drug Tester says

in the top one hundred. I'm sure they will have
plenty of players involved in Pro Bowl twenty twenty six.
Tic Tac Tall they can knock themselves out there have

(25:21):
a great time. Terry in England writes, and he says,
thanks man. We do morning a morning show in England,
not an overnight show. We're on mornings in England. Terry,
one of our UK listeners says, thanks Ben for your
list analysis monologues on list two days in a row.
You've changed, Ben, You've changed. What are you quoting? Russeph?
Now the last time Justin and Cincinnati opened Bodies hit

(25:45):
the floor. There you go. Justin also says pound for
pound smash Mouth a better band than the Beatles. That's
according It's a hot take from Justin in Cincinnati, who
does not listen to music. All he does is listen
to sports talk radio. He actually listens to Fox Sports
Radio more than our bosses here at Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 5 (26:06):
Was that an actual tweeter? Is that one of your interpretations?

Speaker 1 (26:10):
What are you talking? I don't know, he said. Right here,
Justin said smash Mouth is pound for pound a better
band than the Beatles. That is what Justin said. He's
trying to react. No, I don't think he's I don't
think he I think he's being very honest there. That's
the way he looks at things. I did get an
email from a guy the other day which I don't
quite understand. He says, how can I join the malin

Gary Cheff were Odder ninety nine, Gamestani to ninety four.

Speaker 2 (38:07):
Big Ben gets grailled.

Speaker 5 (38:09):
Krubalu Ben last season the NFC North was the best
division in football, with all four teams finishing the season
with a plus forty or better point differential. Ben, do
you think they will be the best division again this season?

Speaker 2 (38:21):
No?

Speaker 1 (38:21):
I do not. I'm gonna go with the AFC North.
You've got Cincinnati's gonna be better here, and unlike popular
Aaron Rodgers is going to be slightly better than what
they've had at quarterback. You still have the Ravens in
that division.

Speaker 3 (38:35):
Now.

Speaker 1 (38:35):
The problem is you've got the Browns. So that's see,
that's the ugly redheaded stepchild, the Cleveland resident, in this case,
the orange step child. But no, because the Lions are
gonna be a little worse. The Vikings will be a
little worse. So and the Bears, I still I don't
think they're that good.

Speaker 5 (38:49):
So next, An MLB insider said this week that quote,
spending even one second arguing that Kyle Schwarber deserves MVP
over Otani is a massive waste of time.

Speaker 1 (38:58):
Ben, Is he right? No, it's not, And I like Otani.
He's likely gonna win the MVP. But Sworber is much
better offensively than Otani this year. All right, So let's
be called like and Otani hasn't been that great as
a pitcher, So I mean, what are we doing next, Brooklyn?
Next forward?

Speaker 5 (39:14):
Michael Porter Junior said in a recent live stream that
he believes he is the second best shooter in the NBA,
behind Steph Curry, that no one is clearly ahead of him.
What do you think?

Speaker 1 (39:23):
Well, I actually believe I'm the tooth Fairy. And if
I believe I'm the tooth fairy coople loop, then I'm
the damn tooth Fairy. So that's what I believe. If
you believe it, it must be true. And I think
I'm the tooth Fairy. How did we do? Win? Good job,
cop More cookies coming, more cookies. That's the win. I
got it right,
