who shut down the Dodgers. We'll talk about that. Also
some football news. Can you unravel what cowboy quarterback Dak
(00:24):
Prescott is getting at with his quote about wide receiver
George Pickens. Also the Falcons quarterback for now Kirk Cousins
slamming his own team claiming that he was missiled by
the atl after they drafted another quarterback shortly after they
signed him, Michael Pennox Junior.
Speaker 1 (00:43):
How does that sound to you? We'll take a look at.
Speaker 2 (00:46):

Speaker 1 (02:02):
So our lead this hour is from Milwaukee.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
Now not your normal milk toast kind of a game
in baseball. There's some wild finishes we mentioned at the
end of last hour, the Giants winning on a three
run walk off home run by a catcher, tremendous outfield
defense by the Philadelphia Phillies. They should buy those old
Tom Amanski videos How to Play Baseball Baseball fund Most anyway,
(02:27):
this is about what happened in Brewtown.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
Big time pitching.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
You had the old versus the new honorary All Star,
that token All Star appearance for Clayton Kershaw, for La
versus the next big thing after the next big thing
to you. The next big thing is Paul Skeens in Pittsburgh.
But then after that, this other guy is the next week.
I think you know what I'm talking about. Maybe not so.
(02:53):
Jacob Miserawski, that's what we're talking about here. And he
had a tough outing his last time out against the
New York Metros, but he came back with Gusto for
the brew Crew. He did allow a lead off our
run to show hey, o'toni, but he ended up striking
out not one, not two, not three, and not four,
not five, not six, not seven. At eight twelve twelve,
(03:17):
helpless Dodger batters. As the Dodgers are going through a
rough patch right now, and the Milwaukee Brewers, the Brew
Crew defeat the Blue Crew seats the Brew Crew over
the Blue Crew three to one in a random game
on a Tuesday night the NL West, leading the top
(03:37):
team in the National League. The Dodgers have now lost
five straight five straight games. Now, for me, the story
here is on the match. I watched this game. Now,
I was flipping around and I watched a little bit
of the Red Sox game, but they're playing the Rockies.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
Watched some of the Yankee game. There was a rain
delay in that one.
Speaker 2 (03:55):
Some of the Phillies giants, you know, they're flipping in
the background. I had the TV on while I was
getting ready for the show, and it's kind of cool because.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
I can watch random games, so I'm flipping around.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
But I did focus in on the Brewers and the
Giants because I wanted to see this guy. I'd seen
him pitch earlier the Miz and I honest see how
this all went down. So what are your impressions. What
are your impressions of the Brewers starter Jacob Misaraski and
how he did against the Dodgers after that starts. So
my observations. I've got anaconda, packing peanuts and sledgehammer man.
(04:29):
We will combine all of these things together and we
will put the biscuit in the basket. All right, So
number what I said, Number, what a maze this guy?
Speaker 1 (04:42):
Twenty three years old?
Speaker 2 (04:44):
If you could buy stock in how much this cat's
gonna make twenty three years old, six foot seven, built
like a coat rat guy, and not a lot of
meat on the bone there. I guess he'll fill out
as he gets older. He does have the rocket launcher
in the arm there. Now it is a small sample size,
only made five stars.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
Don't be a prison of a moment, Ben.
Speaker 2 (05:06):
But wowsers, Man, is this guy good? Holy crap, I mean,
this guy is really good. He throwing You talk about
throwing the.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
Heat, but he's not.
Speaker 2 (05:15):
Just it's people get all excited to get a horny
because he throws one hundred miles an hour. However, he
did show signs of actually knowing how to pitch, and
I'm sure the nerds will take over and make sure you.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
Don't ever do that. Just throw it, throw you throw
a hundred miles an hour, don't throw a slider. What's
the curveball? What's wrong with you?
Speaker 2 (05:30):
So he had twelve strikeouts, and if the math is
right on this, he had seven strikeouts came on the curveball.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
Oh, the analytics are not good. They're not gonna like that.
What is wrong with you?
Speaker 3 (05:42):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (05:42):
He had one on a slider, one on a change up.
So nine of the twelve strikeouts, we're not on the fastball.
We're not on the fastball. And so he's proven. Listen,
he is a flamethrower and all that stuff, but on
on the Mounta he's more of like a surgeon, a
little surgeon action going out there on the mount. So
I was saying about this and the object like the Dodgers.
(06:04):
I think Dodgers, they should get back to the World Series,
should win it, and unless the Astros get the trash
cans out again and all that stuff. But if Milwaukee
doesn't botch this, and there's a hot take coming, I
hope you're prepared.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
You might want to fasten your seat. But there's a
hot take coming.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
So if Milwaukee doesn't screw this up, and I'm talking
about innings limits and oh, we're gonna shut them down,
I have an abundance of caution.
Speaker 1 (06:29):
We're gonna shut them is down.
Speaker 2 (06:31):
Okay, this is gonna be a magic carpet ride, is
what it's gonna be.
Speaker 1 (06:37):
I am Benny bright Side. I am Benny bright Side.
Speaker 2 (06:41):
On Jacob MAZASKI he is fearsome, like a barracuda and lethal,
I said, giant anaconda.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
On the mount. He's the kind of a talent. Here's
the hot take.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
If you gave me a thousand dollars dollars of funny money,
Ted Day, and you said, who's got more of a
chance of beating the Dodgers on the National League side
of the bracket, I would say the Milwaukee Brewers rather
than like the Mets or the Phillies or the Podres
of some of the other teams that are the top
teams and the Nactually, I would take the Milwaukee Brewers.
(07:18):
And here's why, all right to me, they are more
of a threat. And I'll tell you why. We start
with them. With Jacob Mizerowski. This guy has the the
Genni siquah if you will. He's got the razzled out dazzle,
he's got the or. But more importantly, he's good right.
He just looks like he knows what he's doing. He's
the kind of guy if he can back that up
in the plus and listen, some guys get tight. Took
his syndrome in the playoffs and they can't get it
(07:39):
done in big games. One of them is named Clayton Kershaw.
But assuming he's not like that, assuming that Jacob Mizerowski
is able to perform in the playoffs, then I would
drink the brew Crew kool aid. I would put my
money on Milwaukee there, and they're a legit dark horse
(07:59):
threat on the National League side of the bracket to
the Mighty Dodgers down the line. In October and Pat Murphy,
who I kind of liked this guy, you know, if
I'm not mistaken, I was watching.
Speaker 1 (08:10):
The game they had.
Speaker 2 (08:11):
They had an in game interview on Turner with Pat Murphy,
and I'm pretty sure that he said a bad word
while there were One of the Brewers hitters hit a
fly ball that looked like it might be a home run,
but it landed kind of short of the warning track,
and he said the S word, which I think we
should be allowed to say, but you're not technically allowed
to say the S word. So I liked that guy,
(08:32):
Pat Murphy. I know he's been around forever as a
college manager and all that stuff. We don't talk college
baseball other than like maybe once a year at the
College World Series. But I like this guy. And so
he gave the money quote about the miss. He said,
he's just coming out of the egg all arms and legs,
still got gooey stuff coming off of him.
Speaker 1 (08:52):
That's what he said.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
Just gooey stuff sounds good, right, Gooey stuff sounds pretty good.
So that is not a diss, that is not a
shot fired. Obviously, the guy's the manager is an advocate
for his player. That's more of a warning that this
is a dinosaur that Jacob misser USSI. The guy's a dinosaur.
Uh and he hasn't fully formed into t rex yet.
(09:15):
It hasn't hasn't happened now, so keep an eye. And
the reason to be optimistic, to be bullish rather than
embarrashed on the Brewers is you figure with Jacob Mizerowski
in the playoffs in a seven game series, the Brewers bullpens. Okay,
it's come around after a tough start. So in a
seven game series, he's gonna start two to three of
(09:36):
those seven. If it goes seven, I'll start three unless
he's a woos and then they'll start maybe one. But
let's say he starts two. Then you've got all star
Freddy Peralta, and you've got Brandon Woodriff who's pretty pretty good.
Speaker 1 (09:50):
He's been hurt and he came back.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
So those would be your three starting pitchers, I believe,
if I'm not mistaken there in the playoffs, and so
as the Larry Day David would say, that's.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
Pretty deep, pretty deep.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
Pretty good, I would say pretty good. All right, Now
we pivot away from that and we go to the NFL.
We are closing in on the start of training camp.
It's not that exciting, not that exciting, but that But
there was some interesting commentary coming out of Jerry's world.
That's right, the obligatory mention of the Dallas Cowboys. So
(10:25):
Dak Prescott waxing poetic recently about his receiving corps in Dallas. Now,
the quote that stood out to us was what he
had to say about George Pickens. That stood out to us.
So Dak made a declaration, gave a statement, do we
have this all?
Speaker 1 (10:44):
I think we have this. Let's see if we have
the idea.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
This is Dak Prescott going on a little bit of
hyperbole on his new wide receiver, George Pickens, Tikeles.
Speaker 4 (10:55):
That's two guys that I want the other guy to
succeed just as much, saying it firsthand. Them to hanging
out and me the Bystanderd, I go in the house,
you know, purposely for a little bit. You know, I'm
just preaking at him. They love each other, they love
each other's company, they love each other's game. To be
the guy that gets to get them the ball. It's
exciting as hell because you can turn on Ota tapes
and one of the guys the ball's in there and
(11:16):
the other one's got his hands up celebrating already.
Speaker 5 (11:19):
All right.
Speaker 2 (11:19):
So he was talking in that cut, he was talking
about Pickens and Ceedee Lamb. In the cut that I
want I would like to focus in on, he said
he was talking about George Pickens. He said, you turn
on that guy's tape talking about George Pickens.
Speaker 1 (11:32):
He's getting separation.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
He's got separation even when he's not getting the ball
at times, and when he doesn't have separation, he's still
making the catches. Prescott said, for me, it's about getting
the ball near that guy and letting him.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
Go be George Pickens close. All right, So can you
unravel all of this?
Speaker 2 (11:51):
Can you unravel what Dak Prescott was getting at with
the quote that I just read there, the one about
George Pickens. So I've got Dak gibberish is what i got,
Dak gibberish.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
That's how that's how I unravel that quote. I do.
Speaker 2 (12:11):
So. He said, Pickens is open when he's not open.
He's catching balls when he's not catching balls. So that
must mean, using deductive reasoning, that George Pickens is a
wide receiver who is actually some kind of quantum particle.
(12:33):
I think I think that's what he was getting at
with that with that line.
Speaker 1 (12:37):
Now, is he.
Speaker 2 (12:38):
Both open and is covered until observed? Inquiring minds would
like to know. So this is another jem a diamond
in the rough from Dakota. Now his superpower is not
playing quarterback for the Dallas Cowboys.
Speaker 1 (12:54):
No no, no, no, no no. This this is what dak
is good at hot air.
Speaker 2 (13:01):
He is Jerry Jones should frame this that particular quote,
the one I read about what he said about George
Pickens here and go over to the louver because Jerry's power.
Round his yacht somewhere near the Louver and and put
it right next to the Mona Lisa. I just find
the Mona Lisa and then you put a label on top.
You can write it if you want, you can make
it professionally done. The art of the vague compliment. Dakota Prescott.
Speaker 1 (13:27):
That's it.
Speaker 2 (13:27):
So, dak Prescott's the kind of speaking reminds me of
in a previous generation, Derek Jeter. Derek Jeter was like
this where the fanboys would get all excited anytime Derek
Jeter talked, and he's oh man, that was a great
quote by Derek Jeter.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
And I'd be like, he didn't say anything.
Speaker 2 (13:43):
Dak Prescott could give a keynote address at a company
event and he can go on and on about the
nutritional value of packing peanuts. Keynote address by Dak press
Ball at packing pe nuts are really good for you
and just wonderful, and the crowd would applaud.
Speaker 1 (14:04):
They just wait to go Dak, I mean outstanding, and
they would not.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
Know a single, a single thing more than when they
sat down to listen to what Dak was saying. So
he has really missed his calling. But he's done playing
for the Cowboys. He can become a future White House
press secretary. He's got that. That is future, and he
has mastered the cornerback version of corporate speak. He has
(14:31):
done that. And the undisputed, undefeated, unchallenged heavyweight champion of
the world at saying absolutely nothing in a thirty second
sound bite, Dakota Prescott, He's done it yet again. He's
the guy. He could be asked what time all right,
what time is it? And he would respond, well, time
(14:53):
is a construct, Dak would say, And we're just we're
just trying to make the most of the moments that
we're given. We don't have that much of it, and
you just going on. So it's not really that he's
dodging anything, because he's not that good at dodging sacks.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
He's not dodging anything. He's he's just like waltzing around.
You know, he's dancing.
Speaker 2 (15:13):
He's guy's tuxedo on. He's dancing around. The cliches and
all that stuff. And yeah, we'd like a little more
meat on the bone, but there we know we're not
going to get that. And you're supposed to talk that
way if you're the quarterback, and we like a little
more spice, little pepper. There's not a lot of pepper there.
It's just a word salad and a side dish, a
(15:34):
little basket of hot air, little basket of hot air.
All right, now, final point to the atl we go,
great airport, bad sports, Great airport, bad sports. So the
Falcons quarterback for now Kirk Cousins slamming.
Speaker 1 (15:50):
His own team. Oh my god, did you see?
Speaker 2 (15:52):
This is all part of that Netflix show which is
out here, that quarterback thing that's out now. So Kirk
Cousins slamming the Falcons and claimed that he was missiled.
His word, not my word, missile after they drafted Michael
Pennix Junior. And how does that sound to you? How
(16:15):
does that sound to you? So cousins, for all the
flak that he gets says he's a diminishing asset, at
this particular point, he absolutely has a right.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
To be ticked off.
Speaker 2 (16:26):
Like I don't know how you could argue against that
being dirty pool by the Falcons.
Speaker 1 (16:34):
I don't know that.
Speaker 2 (16:35):
I would use the word missile. I would go stronger
than that. I mean, this is the definition of the
blind Side a franchise over the years. The Falcons they
cannot they couldn't spell the word stability at the Atlanta Falcons.
If you spotted in the first six letters of the word,
they'd still f it up. I mean, they don't know
what they're doing. And it does make you wonder there's
(16:58):
something going on in that that water supply in the
state of Georgia.
Speaker 1 (17:03):
There.
Speaker 2 (17:05):
Tommy in Atlanta might know you didn't listen. He can't
call because his evil boss won't let him call anymore.
But I met him a while back at the mallor
Meet and greet there in the South and he listens
every night to the show. He cannot interact with us
because he's a camera on him and he's driving around
his truck. The schmuck's over there at the company oors were,
but he knows right when it comes to poor decision
(17:25):
making and broken promises. The Atlanta and Georgia's sports teams
have mastered that. Now the Falcons, we'll talk about them.
So they signed Kirk Cousins and then a couple months
later drafted in the first round a quarterback. Before Cousins
had even played a game, they drafted a quarterback. And
(17:46):
so the Falcons were operating. If you go back in
the hot Top time machine, they were operating like that.
There's some kind of bizarre like psyop thing, like a
roster confusion. And Cousins, I assume moving down to Atlanta,
he thought he was building a house and the Falcons
(18:06):
are like, hey, listen, it's not a hot We're handing
you a sledgehammer, and we actually are doing demo. We
used to have a demo guy that would call the
show from Minnesota. We're handing you a sledgehammer. We want
you to do some demo.
Speaker 1 (18:18):
That's it.
Speaker 2 (18:20):
And he even said like if he had known that,
he would have stayed with the Vikings. He's like because
they drafted a quarterback, but he's like, I like Minnesota.
He liked to like the people there, like the town,
the whole thing, and then he just would have stayed
in Minnesota rather than go to Atlanta. So yeah, the
Falcons they did him dirty, they did. So how does
a front office though in spin of cause they knew
he had an injury, Like it wasn't like a secret.
(18:42):
They knew Cousins was hurt when they signed him. But
how do you go from we believe in you, we
are going to give you a cartoon check for like
one hundred eighty million dogs? How do you go from
that to we're hedging our bets like you're some kind
of shady black jack dealer guy in Atlantic.
Speaker 1 (19:02):
Like it's very odd.
Speaker 2 (19:04):
It's very odd, and it's moufeas it's I would say,
and it's worked out, then we don't know if it's
worked out. Neither of us know whether Michael Pennock Junior
is good or not. Now you wow, Cousins isn't any good?
And the argument is Cousins is done and maybe that
will be true. He will be playing for someone other
than the Falcons, though, whether he gets traded now or
(19:25):
training camp or early in the season before the trade deadline, obviously,
but that is the kind of organizational dysfunction signing a
quarterback then drafting a quarterback. It's like the Cleveland Browns.
It makes them look like they know what they're doing,
the Cleveland Browns. And so that was totally a slap
right across the schnaz for Kirk Cousins. And you know,
(19:49):
it's even like more of like the atomic elbow to
the schnaz is what that was there. And so again
the Falcons they burned a hundred and was it one
hundred and eighty million I believe was the number an
investment with Kirk Cousins, and they treated him like a
some kind of scratch off ticket that sir scratch off
as in Arkansas and just kind of hoping it pays
(20:10):
off anyway.
Speaker 1 (20:11):

Bronco Fan that's a Bronco ven.
Speaker 2 (21:40):
Your comments canon will be used the engine in the
Court of sports radio back to it.
Speaker 1 (21:46):
Well, it's funny. Bill brought this up at one of
the all time great talk radio calls.
Speaker 2 (21:51):
I think it was twenty nineteen. Early twenty nineteen. The
Athletic had broken behind a paywall that the Astros were cheating,
and Chris and Houston called up. He was the resident
astro apologist.
Speaker 6 (22:13):
Of the Houston.
Speaker 1 (22:15):
Besides, yeah, that's the great will be by play.
Speaker 2 (22:18):
But he called up and and he swore that he
said it was fake news.
Speaker 1 (22:26):
Didn't happen. He said it was like Ai, I remember this.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
Was like six years ago, Like gay I is a
big deal right now, but back then it wasn't as
big a deal. And so he had this whole mapped
out and and there were hundreds of videos on YouTube
of the trash Cats being banged on and the Astro's
hitting a home run or a double or fake news. Yeah,
(22:49):
I'll never forget that call. That's the all time great calls. So,
holy crap, was that a terrible call, but it was anyway,
we started this out with the miz I'm on board.
I am I'm in you know, just like the sausage
race there in Milwaukee. I'm in it, man, I am
in it. We also talked about the Cowboys and the
Vikings or slash Falcons there. King Roy says, I love
(23:12):
your optimism on my Brewers. Unfortunately, pitching isn't the issue
for the Brewers in the playoffs.
Speaker 1 (23:17):
It's their bats.
Speaker 2 (23:18):
The Brewers need to buy the trade deadline to get
a bat or we will not see the Maze pitch
too many games in October, especially with Milwaukee. Yeah, during
the regular listen, that is an issue that Brewers do
not have a dynamic lineup, but they have a lot
of pesky hitters that can cause you problems assuming you're
not giving up four and five runs a game in
(23:39):
the playoffs, if the games are close and it's four
runs or less.
Speaker 1 (23:44):
Yeah, he got a shot. I got a shot.
Speaker 2 (23:47):
Just Josh in Cincinnati says, in honor of Tony, it's
a no breaks hot take.
Speaker 1 (23:54):
From Malor. You all better buckle up.
Speaker 2 (23:57):
That's right, Yes, buckle up absolutely, Ryan says, going to Vegas,
Ryan and San Diegos is going to Vegas on Monday.
Who is the one ace you would bet on risking
the Malor mansion? Well, Ryan, normally I do not bet
aces unless you get some line value.
Speaker 1 (24:19):
I generally try.
Speaker 2 (24:20):
To avoid like the bubonic plague, laying minus two hundred
minus two twenty numbers like that in baseball because of
the fragility of pitchers in baseball, and that if you
put a lot of money.
Speaker 1 (24:33):
Down you should win most of them.
Speaker 2 (24:36):
One of my famous gambling stories years ago, I with
my gambling buddy, we decided we were gonna bet every
number one start. This was back when you had Randy
Johnson in baseball, Pedro Martinez Hall of Fame pitchers, Hall
of Fame pitchers, and we were just gonna bet on
those guys because they won, the team would win most
of the time.
Speaker 1 (24:56):
Those guys pitch.
Speaker 2 (24:57):
And we had lost are bankroll by May first, because
they kept they'd have the.
Speaker 1 (25:05):
Lead, they'd leave with the lead.
Speaker 2 (25:08):
Yeah, so I try to find some some value spots.
So I know I'm giving a generic answer like Dak
Prescott Ryan, but it depends on the individual matchups.
Speaker 6 (25:16):
There.
Speaker 1 (25:16):
Are you sure he's not talking about a Las Vegas
Ace players.
Speaker 2 (25:23):
No, Now, Ryan's a real man. He's not watching the
w NBA at all. Owen says, is there anything which
would lead me to believe that the hoodie is not
a world class creep.
Speaker 6 (25:36):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (25:37):
I've never met, you know, in one on one Bill Belichick.
I do know Belichick lo loved overnight talk radio. Years ago,
I sat next to a guy named Joe Beningo at
a Mets game in the press box and he was
a talk shows to WFN, and he told the story
how he was doing. He did the overnight show at
(25:58):
the fan for years. I think he's back on my
way and he's like old guy. Now, this was years ago,
and he said that he became pen pals with Bill Belichick.
Speaker 1 (26:07):
Belichick used to listen when he was a coach with
the Jets to overnight.
Speaker 2 (26:10):
Sports talk radio and became friends like email correspondence with
this guy Joe Beningo, and they he went on and
of course coached the Patriots. We know what happened to him. Anyway,
Scot to the phones. Now, I mentioned the malord Paloser
is coming up here in a couple of weeks and
to give the gift the joy a real legitimate prize
(26:32):
because the company doesn't give us any kind of a budget.
Speaker 1 (26:34):
Here, mister Irrigation stepping up. He's in Houston. Hello, mister Irrigation,
old bull.
Speaker 6 (26:43):
You know that's cool, but like so, uh the show
last night, I don't call him.
Speaker 1 (26:54):
You know, you don't call him because your phone's usually
pretty bad. That's why.
Speaker 5 (26:58):
It might be.
Speaker 6 (26:59):
And I see so uh.
Speaker 1 (27:02):
Oh boy, I missed.
Speaker 2 (27:04):
I can't. You're cutting out, mister irrigation. This is very
unfortunate timing of your phone cutting out here. I know, yes,
I can, go go ahead, I can. It's like a
commercial for Verizon. I can hear you now, Yes, go ahead.
Speaker 6 (27:19):
So anyway, you talked about the name and all, you
can call me the koy boy. I don't mind that.
I would consider it a term of endearment, you know.
Speaker 1 (27:32):
Miss and mister mister truck if you get koy boy.
Speaker 2 (27:37):
I don't know what he said. I can't understand. I
you got you gotta call that, mister irrigation. The phones,
I can't. It's choppy. We think you might have said
something that might need to be dumb, but we're not
sure because we couldn't really hear it.
Speaker 1 (27:49):
And uh, but we need you to we need you
to call back. I'm sorry.
Speaker 2 (27:53):
I know you were on hole for a long time
and you did make some rings and I wanted to
talk about that, and unfortunately Uh, he's two choppies bad time,
So now he's gonna be all upset. Hey, Tammy in Vegas,
but her heart is in Wisconsin says I loved remember Tammy.
Speaker 1 (28:09):
We met Tammy at the Mala in Vegas. Very nice one.
Speaker 2 (28:12):
Works her ass off there. She says, I loved hearing
you give the brew Cruse some props. I'm excited about
the mis and seeing what he will do. Yeah, something
that looks it looks pretty solid, pretty solid, and we'll
see whether that happens or not. Jay Scoop says, this
was my favorite Chris and Houston call I remember that.
Speaker 1 (28:32):
Yeah, A big, big tennis guy.
Speaker 2 (28:35):
Fred in Nebraska right, since says I believe Minnesota also
told kirk Cousins.
Speaker 1 (28:40):
They were going to draft the quarterback.
Speaker 2 (28:42):
So him saying, if I knew Atlanta was going to
draft the quarterback, I would have never left Minnesota.
Speaker 1 (28:46):
It is Pierre Fowley.
Speaker 2 (28:47):
Fred and Nebraska says that is one reason he left
Minnesota in the first thing. No, what he's saying, though,
Fred is all things being equal, if he knew whether
he stayed in Minnesota or went to Atlanta, kirk Cousins
was going to have to deal with a rookie quarterback.
Speaker 1 (29:01):
He would have just stayed stayed in Minnesota. He wouldn't
have left.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
Let's go back to the phones and Andre and his
dog Willis are in the Commonwealth.
Speaker 1 (29:14):
Hello, Andre, good evening.
Speaker 5 (29:18):
Ben's nice to be with you. Willis and I most
certainly here in the Commonwealth. We got these passing through
the te storms had been coming through, so Willis.
Speaker 2 (29:28):
Willis is fired up. Baby Willis is fired up on
the overnight and.
Speaker 5 (29:33):
We had a good fourth Uh. You know, my heart
goes out to all the tours that were vacating the
Cape and island. They had to wait in the bridge traffic,
you know. But the fourth was a wonderful weekend. But
now we got tea storms throughout the week.
Speaker 6 (29:47):
So I'm up.
Speaker 5 (29:48):
You know, Willis and I we might not be able
to go for the same walk because the trench will downpour,
but we're We're hanging in there. Bett and you started
off talking about the NBA. Frankly, we're talking about having
it up. But I'm already get excited for Benny versus Penny.
I tell you that right now, I'm already you know,
doing my analysis, you know, my top quarterback. You know, one, two,
and three, and four. Its is kind of hotly contested
(30:09):
on that point. I just because we're gonna talk, we're
gonna get in the NBA really quickly been. But relative
to Benny versus the Penny, listen the Chiefs and their
search for the eighth uh you know, eight AFC Championship
game breaking through to another Super Bowl. Then we talked
about it that you were able to do your thing,
chef it up in the kitchen, you know. But you
watch your calories, even though I think you work so
(30:30):
hard you're gonna burn those calories off anyway, but you
watch the calories. My point here is Patrick Mahomes has
been spotted with quite the dad got in his summer pictures.
He's been spotted. You know, he's out there, he's having
a good time. I don't have anything against the dad bot. Okay,
for going on it.
Speaker 2 (30:44):
Does it sounds like your anti dad body. It sounds
to me like you've.
Speaker 1 (30:50):
Taken a strong position against the dad body.
Speaker 5 (30:53):
Negative negative, No, I I nor will it's have anything
against the dad bot. All I'm saying is that Patrick
Mahomes has been getting some shape. I don't think he
deserves it. Okay, he's a guy, Patty Mahome. You neither
a super Bowl or butt for him, okay, but he's
been spotted having a good time, you know, his family
out there, and I think it was a New York
post that, you know, when people were in Kansas City
were getting upset with him. And I'm just saying again,
(31:16):
there's no issue. If you're making super Bowls, you can
roll up there harever you want to, right, Bave Ruth.
You know, he was a portly gentleman, okay, but still
greatest of all times. So I just think myself for
myself and Willis people, I am totally even though myself
then I'm looking forward to getting some of the pizza
and some of the cookies at a Mallard meet and greet,
looking forward, but I do need to do an extra
ship push up or sit up here and there. I'm
(31:37):
just putting it out there.
Speaker 1 (31:38):
Guyah.
Speaker 2 (31:38):
Well, as we like to say the rare and appropriate, well,
you don't do it all the time, but you can
enjoy yourself. And you know you only live once, you
might as well enjoy it. Right, it'd be over before
you know it, right, Willis agrees. I heard Willis agree
Willis's agree with that.
Speaker 5 (31:53):
Take Greece, Yeah, you got out, the callers lined up.
Let's pick it back over to the NBA because Nicola
Jocis at one point he did have a dead okay,
but then he got his he got on his game,
you know, and then he started winning MVP. It's all
a dance right now.
Speaker 6 (32:05):
Okay.
Speaker 5 (32:06):
So is he gonna sign is He's not gonna sign
Al Warford? Possibly to the Warriors. You know, I think
there's another power move that will take place this summer
because I think Giannis is where he ends up. It
might not for sure in Milwaukee, okay, but relative to Denver,
they've done everything to put him in position to win
a championship as far as I'm concerned, bringing in Cam Johnson,
(32:27):
bringing back Boost Brown, Valentunis in the mix. So I
don't think Joki is going anywhere. I think he's just
playing out the string. But they're in good stead in Denver. Boston,
who knows what the heck we're doing giving away Drew
holiday and championship aspirations, But Denver's where they need to be.
Golden State possibly maybe trying to steal Al Warford, which
might line up making it better for Giannis to go there.
Speaker 6 (32:49):
There's some shoes to.
Speaker 5 (32:50):
Be falling going forward from me and willis no need
to be ashamed of the dad body. Okay, just do
a pushing for sit up here or there. You know,
walk a little bit extra. You're gonna off heavy back,
just like you were in your twenties and thirties, better
than ever been. Thanks for taking it all.
Speaker 1 (33:04):
Right, there you go, he's the daddy. Mahomes starts being terrible.
Speaker 2 (33:09):
I didn't play that great last year, but they were
in the freaking super Bowl, so it's hard to rip
the Chiefs. When Mahomes was the offense, they didn't have much,
but he was what they had and they got to
the super Bowl. So if he starts vanishing, then we
revisit them. We'll circle back to that. Mister Irrigation says
he's in Livingston on the overnight tonight. He's thinks he
(33:30):
thinks the phone connection there, the cell reception in Livingston,
Texas not not particularly good. So so close to living
the bambino lifestyle. Livy done the internet celebrity there, very
iconic if you're into like TikTok and all that stuff.
She also happens to have a pretty pretty famous there
(33:53):
boyfriend there, that's the pitcher for the pirates. Well, she
revealed that she put a bid all on Babe Ruth's
old apartment in Manhattan. You see this, no, all right?
So the Bambino, the greatest of all time, he lived
in a three bedroom Upper West Side co op with
(34:15):
his second wife and their adopted daughter between nineteen twenty
and nineteen forty, so twenty years bab Ruth lived there.
Speaker 1 (34:24):
His residence was at.
Speaker 2 (34:25):
Three forty five West eighty eighth Street, and it became available,
and so internet celebrity Libby done. She put a bit
on it and she offered a cash just under one
point six million.
Speaker 1 (34:38):
They hit the market.
Speaker 2 (34:39):
She offered it the full amount, and she was about
to get the property. However, turns out that they you
know co op in New York, you talk about homeowners
association and all that. The co op board decided, the
people that live in the building decided that she was
not worthy of living in their building. They did not
(35:02):
want her as a neighbor because she's like a TikTok star.
Speaker 1 (35:06):
And all that. They didn't want to deal with that crap.
Speaker 2 (35:08):
So they turned her down. Even though she offered the
proper amount. She had the right amount of money to
buy Babe Bruce's old apartment. She said she had lined
up people to redecorated the whole thing, the greatest Yankee
of all times. That would been her first real estate purchase,
but she was denied. What a SOB story? What a
(35:28):
sob story. Imagine just because you're a hot check and
you're on the internet, you can have one point six
million to buy a co op apartment in New York.
Speaker 1 (35:38):
Unbelieve?
Speaker 2 (35:39):
All right, Well, good for her, but not good for
her because of her TikTok career did not quite work
out anyway.
Speaker 5 (35:44):
It is the.
Speaker 2 (35:44):

Speaker 2 (38:01):
Is the insta trivia in blank blank the only player
in baseball history to play all one hundred and sixty
two games and not ground into a double play.
Speaker 1 (38:12):
That is the question. What is the answer?
Speaker 2 (38:16):
Malaprop guy says it's mister irrigation Keith Ocho Texto.
Speaker 1 (38:21):
Got it right.
Speaker 2 (38:23):
He's probably banging on trash can while he was doing that.
Daniel San from Bobby in Florida Banana cream Pie ice
cream down the road there at UMass That sounds good.
Jim Tomay from Andy and Lino Lakes, Minnesota. Teddy higera
guest by JT the Wingman. Who else do we have?
Speaker 1 (38:42):
Page down?
Speaker 2 (38:43):
Jay Scoop says it's Benny the Bopper that that is
the answer. That's a great clip. We gotta bring that
back to the show. All right, Do you have an
answer to the ring?
Speaker 1 (38:52):
Mister pac Man, mister.
Speaker 2 (38:54):
Pac Man, not missus pac Man, mister pac Man. No,
it's none other than Craig Bigio.
Speaker 1 (39:00):
He played so long ago they were They weren't the
cheating ash fills when he played, Here we go, Here
we go. How about that?
Speaker 3 (39:07):
To the third degree, this is one big that gets
Grail cool.
Speaker 8 (39:14):
So the Chiefs requested an extension from the state of
Kansas on their offer to build a team a new
stadium if they move over to the Kansas side of
Kansas City, and they were granted that extension until June
of twenty twenty six. The team will have to decide
if they want to play in a renovated Arrowhead in
Missouri or a new domed stadium in Kansas.
Speaker 1 (39:32):
Which do you think they'll go with them?
Speaker 2 (39:34):
Well, I don't understand what the hull of the I
thought Arrowhead was cool because I it's nostalgia when I
was a kid.
Speaker 1 (39:39):
I went there last November.
Speaker 2 (39:41):
That was really great experience because I grew up watching
games at arrow at big games.
Speaker 1 (39:44):
But Kansas is like literally down the street.
Speaker 2 (39:47):
The road one of the roads in Kansas City goes
right through Missouri and Kansas, So to me, it doesn't matter.
Speaker 1 (39:52):
But I think they I think eventually they'll just build
a Dolm in Kansas. I think that's where to go next.
Speaker 8 (39:56):
Patrick Mahomes made a recent podcast appearance where he said
that he thinks this is the deepest group of weapons
that he has had around him on the Chiefs.
Speaker 1 (40:03):
Ben, do you think that's true?
Speaker 2 (40:04):
I feel like he says this every other year, Mahomes,
how about to be determined? I'll see, I'll believe it
when these guys get through training camp not hurt.
Speaker 8 (40:13):
Next Raiders under Mark Davis was reflecting on his father
on what would have been his ninety sixth birthday. He said,
IL loved Vegas and would love seeing the Raiders where
they are now. You wanted to say that Vegas is
the sports and entertainment capital of the world, Ben, Is
he right?
Speaker 1 (40:26):
Well?
Speaker 2 (40:26):
Al would have loved the fact that Vegas bent over
and gave the Raiders everything they wanted, But in terms
of market size, it would have been better if they
stayed in La It's a bigger market. So there it
is malardly third degree
Playball.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
It's our number two, our number two, and we begin
with a phenom on the mound. What are your impressions
after the latest dominating appearance by Brewers starter Jacob Misowski
who shut down the Dodgers. We'll talk about that. Also
some football news. Can you unravel what cowboy quarterback Dak
(00:24):
Prescott is getting at with his quote about wide receiver
George Pickens. Also the Falcons quarterback for now Kirk Cousins
slamming his own team claiming that he was missiled by
the atl after they drafted another quarterback shortly after they
signed him, Michael Pennox Junior.
Speaker 1 (00:43):
How does that sound to you? We'll take a look at.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
All that and more right now. Buckle up for our
number two, the new whiz kid of baseball. Welcome in
the beginning of another hour of Ben Mahler Show. We
are in the air eywhere writing the radio waves says
(01:09):
we are your spirit animal, unless we're not coast to coast,
sport of the border and beyond. On the mast and
blisteringly powerful microphones of fsre amm neating live from.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
The slinger as we are just cheap talk slingers.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
Under the cover of darkness from the Fox Sports Radio
Studios as approved by mister Irrigation and this portion of
the Ben Mahler Show on Fox made possible by our
friends in part over a tire rack.

freeback by, free road hazard protection with convenient installation options
like mobile tire installation tire raq dot Com the Way
tire By show.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
So our lead this hour is from Milwaukee.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
Now not your normal milk toast kind of a game
in baseball. There's some wild finishes we mentioned at the
end of last hour, the Giants winning on a three
run walk off home run by a catcher, tremendous outfield
defense by the Philadelphia Phillies. They should buy those old
Tom Amanski videos How to Play Baseball Baseball fund Most anyway,
(02:27):
this is about what happened in Brewtown.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
Big time pitching.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
You had the old versus the new honorary All Star,
that token All Star appearance for Clayton Kershaw, for La
versus the next big thing after the next big thing
to you. The next big thing is Paul Skeens in Pittsburgh.
But then after that, this other guy is the next week.
I think you know what I'm talking about. Maybe not so.
(02:53):
Jacob Miserawski, that's what we're talking about here. And he
had a tough outing his last time out against the
New York Metros, but he came back with Gusto for
the brew Crew. He did allow a lead off our
run to show hey, o'toni, but he ended up striking
out not one, not two, not three, and not four,
not five, not six, not seven. At eight twelve twelve,
(03:17):
helpless Dodger batters. As the Dodgers are going through a
rough patch right now, and the Milwaukee Brewers, the Brew
Crew defeat the Blue Crew seats the Brew Crew over
the Blue Crew three to one in a random game
on a Tuesday night the NL West, leading the top
(03:37):
team in the National League. The Dodgers have now lost
five straight five straight games. Now, for me, the story
here is on the match. I watched this game. Now,
I was flipping around and I watched a little bit
of the Red Sox game, but they're playing the Rockies.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
Watched some of the Yankee game. There was a rain
delay in that one.
Speaker 2 (03:55):
Some of the Phillies giants, you know, they're flipping in
the background. I had the TV on while I was
getting ready for the show, and it's kind of cool because.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
I can watch random games, so I'm flipping around.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
But I did focus in on the Brewers and the
Giants because I wanted to see this guy. I'd seen
him pitch earlier the Miz and I honest see how
this all went down. So what are your impressions. What
are your impressions of the Brewers starter Jacob Misaraski and
how he did against the Dodgers after that starts. So
my observations. I've got anaconda, packing peanuts and sledgehammer man.
(04:29):
We will combine all of these things together and we
will put the biscuit in the basket. All right, So
number what I said, Number, what a maze this guy?
Speaker 1 (04:42):
Twenty three years old?
Speaker 2 (04:44):
If you could buy stock in how much this cat's
gonna make twenty three years old, six foot seven, built
like a coat rat guy, and not a lot of
meat on the bone there. I guess he'll fill out
as he gets older. He does have the rocket launcher
in the arm there. Now it is a small sample size,
only made five stars.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
Don't be a prison of a moment, Ben.
Speaker 2 (05:06):
But wowsers, Man, is this guy good? Holy crap, I mean,
this guy is really good. He throwing You talk about
throwing the.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
Heat, but he's not.
Speaker 2 (05:15):
Just it's people get all excited to get a horny
because he throws one hundred miles an hour. However, he
did show signs of actually knowing how to pitch, and
I'm sure the nerds will take over and make sure you.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
Don't ever do that. Just throw it, throw you throw
a hundred miles an hour, don't throw a slider. What's
the curveball? What's wrong with you?
Speaker 2 (05:30):
So he had twelve strikeouts, and if the math is
right on this, he had seven strikeouts came on the curveball.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
Oh, the analytics are not good. They're not gonna like that.
What is wrong with you?
Speaker 3 (05:42):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (05:42):
He had one on a slider, one on a change up.
So nine of the twelve strikeouts, we're not on the fastball.
We're not on the fastball. And so he's proven. Listen,
he is a flamethrower and all that stuff, but on
on the Mounta he's more of like a surgeon, a
little surgeon action going out there on the mount. So
I was saying about this and the object like the Dodgers.
(06:04):
I think Dodgers, they should get back to the World Series,
should win it, and unless the Astros get the trash
cans out again and all that stuff. But if Milwaukee
doesn't botch this, and there's a hot take coming, I
hope you're prepared.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
You might want to fasten your seat. But there's a
hot take coming.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
So if Milwaukee doesn't screw this up, and I'm talking
about innings limits and oh, we're gonna shut them down,
I have an abundance of caution.
Speaker 1 (06:29):
We're gonna shut them is down.
Speaker 2 (06:31):
Okay, this is gonna be a magic carpet ride, is
what it's gonna be.
Speaker 1 (06:37):
I am Benny bright Side. I am Benny bright Side.
Speaker 2 (06:41):
On Jacob MAZASKI he is fearsome, like a barracuda and lethal,
I said, giant anaconda.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
On the mount. He's the kind of a talent. Here's
the hot take.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
If you gave me a thousand dollars dollars of funny money,
Ted Day, and you said, who's got more of a
chance of beating the Dodgers on the National League side
of the bracket, I would say the Milwaukee Brewers rather
than like the Mets or the Phillies or the Podres
of some of the other teams that are the top
teams and the Nactually, I would take the Milwaukee Brewers.
(07:18):
And here's why, all right to me, they are more
of a threat. And I'll tell you why. We start
with them. With Jacob Mizerowski. This guy has the the
Genni siquah if you will. He's got the razzled out dazzle,
he's got the or. But more importantly, he's good right.
He just looks like he knows what he's doing. He's
the kind of guy if he can back that up
in the plus and listen, some guys get tight. Took
his syndrome in the playoffs and they can't get it
(07:39):
done in big games. One of them is named Clayton Kershaw.
But assuming he's not like that, assuming that Jacob Mizerowski
is able to perform in the playoffs, then I would
drink the brew Crew kool aid. I would put my
money on Milwaukee there, and they're a legit dark horse
(07:59):
threat on the National League side of the bracket to
the Mighty Dodgers down the line. In October and Pat Murphy,
who I kind of liked this guy, you know, if
I'm not mistaken, I was watching.
Speaker 1 (08:10):
The game they had.
Speaker 2 (08:11):
They had an in game interview on Turner with Pat Murphy,
and I'm pretty sure that he said a bad word
while there were One of the Brewers hitters hit a
fly ball that looked like it might be a home run,
but it landed kind of short of the warning track,
and he said the S word, which I think we
should be allowed to say, but you're not technically allowed
to say the S word. So I liked that guy,
(08:32):
Pat Murphy. I know he's been around forever as a
college manager and all that stuff. We don't talk college
baseball other than like maybe once a year at the
College World Series. But I like this guy. And so
he gave the money quote about the miss. He said,
he's just coming out of the egg all arms and legs,
still got gooey stuff coming off of him.
Speaker 1 (08:52):
That's what he said.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
Just gooey stuff sounds good, right, Gooey stuff sounds pretty good.
So that is not a diss, that is not a
shot fired. Obviously, the guy's the manager is an advocate
for his player. That's more of a warning that this
is a dinosaur that Jacob misser USSI. The guy's a dinosaur.
Uh and he hasn't fully formed into t rex yet.
(09:15):
It hasn't hasn't happened now, so keep an eye. And
the reason to be optimistic, to be bullish rather than
embarrashed on the Brewers is you figure with Jacob Mizerowski
in the playoffs in a seven game series, the Brewers bullpens. Okay,
it's come around after a tough start. So in a
seven game series, he's gonna start two to three of
(09:36):
those seven. If it goes seven, I'll start three unless
he's a woos and then they'll start maybe one. But
let's say he starts two. Then you've got all star
Freddy Peralta, and you've got Brandon Woodriff who's pretty pretty good.
Speaker 1 (09:50):
He's been hurt and he came back.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
So those would be your three starting pitchers, I believe,
if I'm not mistaken there in the playoffs, and so
as the Larry Day David would say, that's.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
Pretty deep, pretty deep.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
Pretty good, I would say pretty good. All right, Now
we pivot away from that and we go to the NFL.
We are closing in on the start of training camp.
It's not that exciting, not that exciting, but that But
there was some interesting commentary coming out of Jerry's world.
That's right, the obligatory mention of the Dallas Cowboys. So
(10:25):
Dak Prescott waxing poetic recently about his receiving corps in Dallas. Now,
the quote that stood out to us was what he
had to say about George Pickens. That stood out to us.
So Dak made a declaration, gave a statement, do we
have this all?
Speaker 1 (10:44):
I think we have this. Let's see if we have
the idea.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
This is Dak Prescott going on a little bit of
hyperbole on his new wide receiver, George Pickens, Tikeles.
Speaker 4 (10:55):
That's two guys that I want the other guy to
succeed just as much, saying it firsthand. Them to hanging
out and me the Bystanderd, I go in the house,
you know, purposely for a little bit. You know, I'm
just preaking at him. They love each other, they love
each other's company, they love each other's game. To be
the guy that gets to get them the ball. It's
exciting as hell because you can turn on Ota tapes
and one of the guys the ball's in there and
(11:16):
the other one's got his hands up celebrating already.
Speaker 5 (11:19):
All right.
Speaker 2 (11:19):
So he was talking in that cut, he was talking
about Pickens and Ceedee Lamb. In the cut that I
want I would like to focus in on, he said
he was talking about George Pickens. He said, you turn
on that guy's tape talking about George Pickens.
Speaker 1 (11:32):
He's getting separation.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
He's got separation even when he's not getting the ball
at times, and when he doesn't have separation, he's still
making the catches. Prescott said, for me, it's about getting
the ball near that guy and letting him.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
Go be George Pickens close. All right, So can you
unravel all of this?
Speaker 2 (11:51):
Can you unravel what Dak Prescott was getting at with
the quote that I just read there, the one about
George Pickens. So I've got Dak gibberish is what i got,
Dak gibberish.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
That's how that's how I unravel that quote. I do.
Speaker 2 (12:11):
So. He said, Pickens is open when he's not open.
He's catching balls when he's not catching balls. So that
must mean, using deductive reasoning, that George Pickens is a
wide receiver who is actually some kind of quantum particle.
(12:33):
I think I think that's what he was getting at
with that with that line.
Speaker 1 (12:37):
Now, is he.
Speaker 2 (12:38):
Both open and is covered until observed? Inquiring minds would
like to know. So this is another jem a diamond
in the rough from Dakota. Now his superpower is not
playing quarterback for the Dallas Cowboys.
Speaker 1 (12:54):
No no, no, no, no no. This this is what dak
is good at hot air.
Speaker 2 (13:01):
He is Jerry Jones should frame this that particular quote,
the one I read about what he said about George
Pickens here and go over to the louver because Jerry's power.
Round his yacht somewhere near the Louver and and put
it right next to the Mona Lisa. I just find
the Mona Lisa and then you put a label on top.
You can write it if you want, you can make
it professionally done. The art of the vague compliment. Dakota Prescott.
Speaker 1 (13:27):
That's it.
Speaker 2 (13:27):
So, dak Prescott's the kind of speaking reminds me of
in a previous generation, Derek Jeter. Derek Jeter was like
this where the fanboys would get all excited anytime Derek
Jeter talked, and he's oh man, that was a great
quote by Derek Jeter.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
And I'd be like, he didn't say anything.
Speaker 2 (13:43):
Dak Prescott could give a keynote address at a company
event and he can go on and on about the
nutritional value of packing peanuts. Keynote address by Dak press
Ball at packing pe nuts are really good for you
and just wonderful, and the crowd would applaud.
Speaker 1 (14:04):
They just wait to go Dak, I mean outstanding, and
they would not.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
Know a single, a single thing more than when they
sat down to listen to what Dak was saying. So
he has really missed his calling. But he's done playing
for the Cowboys. He can become a future White House
press secretary. He's got that. That is future, and he
has mastered the cornerback version of corporate speak. He has
(14:31):
done that. And the undisputed, undefeated, unchallenged heavyweight champion of
the world at saying absolutely nothing in a thirty second
sound bite, Dakota Prescott, He's done it yet again. He's
the guy. He could be asked what time all right,
what time is it? And he would respond, well, time
(14:53):
is a construct, Dak would say, And we're just we're
just trying to make the most of the moments that
we're given. We don't have that much of it, and
you just going on. So it's not really that he's
dodging anything, because he's not that good at dodging sacks.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
He's not dodging anything. He's he's just like waltzing around.
You know, he's dancing.
Speaker 2 (15:13):
He's guy's tuxedo on. He's dancing around. The cliches and
all that stuff. And yeah, we'd like a little more
meat on the bone, but there we know we're not
going to get that. And you're supposed to talk that
way if you're the quarterback, and we like a little
more spice, little pepper. There's not a lot of pepper there.
It's just a word salad and a side dish, a
(15:34):
little basket of hot air, little basket of hot air.
All right, now, final point to the atl we go,
great airport, bad sports, Great airport, bad sports. So the
Falcons quarterback for now Kirk Cousins slamming.
Speaker 1 (15:50):
His own team. Oh my god, did you see?
Speaker 2 (15:52):
This is all part of that Netflix show which is
out here, that quarterback thing that's out now. So Kirk
Cousins slamming the Falcons and claimed that he was missiled.
His word, not my word, missile after they drafted Michael
Pennix Junior. And how does that sound to you? How
(16:15):
does that sound to you? So cousins, for all the
flak that he gets says he's a diminishing asset, at
this particular point, he absolutely has a right.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
To be ticked off.
Speaker 2 (16:26):
Like I don't know how you could argue against that
being dirty pool by the Falcons.
Speaker 1 (16:34):
I don't know that.
Speaker 2 (16:35):
I would use the word missile. I would go stronger
than that. I mean, this is the definition of the
blind Side a franchise over the years. The Falcons they
cannot they couldn't spell the word stability at the Atlanta Falcons.
If you spotted in the first six letters of the word,
they'd still f it up. I mean, they don't know
what they're doing. And it does make you wonder there's
(16:58):
something going on in that that water supply in the
state of Georgia.
Speaker 1 (17:03):
There.
Speaker 2 (17:05):
Tommy in Atlanta might know you didn't listen. He can't
call because his evil boss won't let him call anymore.
But I met him a while back at the mallor
Meet and greet there in the South and he listens
every night to the show. He cannot interact with us
because he's a camera on him and he's driving around
his truck. The schmuck's over there at the company oors were,
but he knows right when it comes to poor decision
(17:25):
making and broken promises. The Atlanta and Georgia's sports teams
have mastered that. Now the Falcons, we'll talk about them.
So they signed Kirk Cousins and then a couple months
later drafted in the first round a quarterback. Before Cousins
had even played a game, they drafted a quarterback. And
(17:46):
so the Falcons were operating. If you go back in
the hot Top time machine, they were operating like that.
There's some kind of bizarre like psyop thing, like a
roster confusion. And Cousins, I assume moving down to Atlanta,
he thought he was building a house and the Falcons
(18:06):
are like, hey, listen, it's not a hot We're handing
you a sledgehammer, and we actually are doing demo. We
used to have a demo guy that would call the
show from Minnesota. We're handing you a sledgehammer. We want
you to do some demo.
Speaker 1 (18:18):
That's it.
Speaker 2 (18:20):
And he even said like if he had known that,
he would have stayed with the Vikings. He's like because
they drafted a quarterback, but he's like, I like Minnesota.
He liked to like the people there, like the town,
the whole thing, and then he just would have stayed
in Minnesota rather than go to Atlanta. So yeah, the
Falcons they did him dirty, they did. So how does
a front office though in spin of cause they knew
he had an injury, Like it wasn't like a secret.
(18:42):
They knew Cousins was hurt when they signed him. But
how do you go from we believe in you, we
are going to give you a cartoon check for like
one hundred eighty million dogs? How do you go from
that to we're hedging our bets like you're some kind
of shady black jack dealer guy in Atlantic.
Speaker 1 (19:02):
Like it's very odd.
Speaker 2 (19:04):
It's very odd, and it's moufeas it's I would say,
and it's worked out, then we don't know if it's
worked out. Neither of us know whether Michael Pennock Junior
is good or not. Now you wow, Cousins isn't any good?
And the argument is Cousins is done and maybe that
will be true. He will be playing for someone other
than the Falcons, though, whether he gets traded now or
(19:25):
training camp or early in the season before the trade deadline, obviously,
but that is the kind of organizational dysfunction signing a
quarterback then drafting a quarterback. It's like the Cleveland Browns.
It makes them look like they know what they're doing,
the Cleveland Browns. And so that was totally a slap
right across the schnaz for Kirk Cousins. And you know,
(19:49):
it's even like more of like the atomic elbow to
the schnaz is what that was there. And so again
the Falcons they burned a hundred and was it one
hundred and eighty million I believe was the number an
investment with Kirk Cousins, and they treated him like a
some kind of scratch off ticket that sir scratch off
as in Arkansas and just kind of hoping it pays
(20:10):
off anyway.
Speaker 1 (20:11):

Speaker 1 (21:39):
Bronco Fan that's a Bronco ven.
Speaker 2 (21:40):
Your comments canon will be used the engine in the
Court of sports radio back to it.
Speaker 1 (21:46):
Well, it's funny. Bill brought this up at one of
the all time great talk radio calls.
Speaker 2 (21:51):
I think it was twenty nineteen. Early twenty nineteen. The
Athletic had broken behind a paywall that the Astros were cheating,
and Chris and Houston called up. He was the resident
astro apologist.
Speaker 6 (22:13):
Of the Houston.
Speaker 1 (22:15):
Besides, yeah, that's the great will be by play.
Speaker 2 (22:18):
But he called up and and he swore that he
said it was fake news.
Speaker 1 (22:26):
Didn't happen. He said it was like Ai, I remember this.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
Was like six years ago, Like gay I is a
big deal right now, but back then it wasn't as
big a deal. And so he had this whole mapped
out and and there were hundreds of videos on YouTube
of the trash Cats being banged on and the Astro's
hitting a home run or a double or fake news. Yeah,
(22:49):
I'll never forget that call. That's the all time great calls. So,
holy crap, was that a terrible call, but it was anyway,
we started this out with the miz I'm on board.
I am I'm in you know, just like the sausage
race there in Milwaukee. I'm in it, man, I am
in it. We also talked about the Cowboys and the
Vikings or slash Falcons there. King Roy says, I love
(23:12):
your optimism on my Brewers. Unfortunately, pitching isn't the issue
for the Brewers in the playoffs.
Speaker 1 (23:17):
It's their bats.
Speaker 2 (23:18):
The Brewers need to buy the trade deadline to get
a bat or we will not see the Maze pitch
too many games in October, especially with Milwaukee. Yeah, during
the regular listen, that is an issue that Brewers do
not have a dynamic lineup, but they have a lot
of pesky hitters that can cause you problems assuming you're
not giving up four and five runs a game in
(23:39):
the playoffs, if the games are close and it's four
runs or less.
Speaker 1 (23:44):
Yeah, he got a shot. I got a shot.
Speaker 2 (23:47):
Just Josh in Cincinnati says, in honor of Tony, it's
a no breaks hot take.
Speaker 1 (23:54):
From Malor. You all better buckle up.
Speaker 2 (23:57):
That's right, Yes, buckle up absolutely, Ryan says, going to Vegas,
Ryan and San Diegos is going to Vegas on Monday.
Who is the one ace you would bet on risking
the Malor mansion? Well, Ryan, normally I do not bet
aces unless you get some line value.
Speaker 1 (24:19):
I generally try.
Speaker 2 (24:20):
To avoid like the bubonic plague, laying minus two hundred
minus two twenty numbers like that in baseball because of
the fragility of pitchers in baseball, and that if you
put a lot of money.
Speaker 1 (24:33):
Down you should win most of them.
Speaker 2 (24:36):
One of my famous gambling stories years ago, I with
my gambling buddy, we decided we were gonna bet every
number one start. This was back when you had Randy
Johnson in baseball, Pedro Martinez Hall of Fame pitchers, Hall
of Fame pitchers, and we were just gonna bet on
those guys because they won, the team would win most
of the time.
Speaker 1 (24:56):
Those guys pitch.
Speaker 2 (24:57):
And we had lost are bankroll by May first, because
they kept they'd have the.
Speaker 1 (25:05):
Lead, they'd leave with the lead.
Speaker 2 (25:08):
Yeah, so I try to find some some value spots.
So I know I'm giving a generic answer like Dak
Prescott Ryan, but it depends on the individual matchups.
Speaker 6 (25:16):
There.
Speaker 1 (25:16):
Are you sure he's not talking about a Las Vegas
Ace players.
Speaker 2 (25:23):
No, Now, Ryan's a real man. He's not watching the
w NBA at all. Owen says, is there anything which
would lead me to believe that the hoodie is not
a world class creep.
Speaker 6 (25:36):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (25:37):
I've never met, you know, in one on one Bill Belichick.
I do know Belichick lo loved overnight talk radio. Years ago,
I sat next to a guy named Joe Beningo at
a Mets game in the press box and he was
a talk shows to WFN, and he told the story
how he was doing. He did the overnight show at
(25:58):
the fan for years. I think he's back on my
way and he's like old guy. Now, this was years ago,
and he said that he became pen pals with Bill Belichick.
Speaker 1 (26:07):
Belichick used to listen when he was a coach with
the Jets to overnight.
Speaker 2 (26:10):
Sports talk radio and became friends like email correspondence with
this guy Joe Beningo, and they he went on and
of course coached the Patriots. We know what happened to him. Anyway,
Scot to the phones. Now, I mentioned the malord Paloser
is coming up here in a couple of weeks and
to give the gift the joy a real legitimate prize
(26:32):
because the company doesn't give us any kind of a budget.
Speaker 1 (26:34):
Here, mister Irrigation stepping up. He's in Houston. Hello, mister Irrigation,
old bull.
Speaker 6 (26:43):
You know that's cool, but like so, uh the show
last night, I don't call him.
Speaker 1 (26:54):
You know, you don't call him because your phone's usually
pretty bad. That's why.
Speaker 5 (26:58):
It might be.
Speaker 6 (26:59):
And I see so uh.
Speaker 1 (27:02):
Oh boy, I missed.
Speaker 2 (27:04):
I can't. You're cutting out, mister irrigation. This is very
unfortunate timing of your phone cutting out here. I know, yes,
I can, go go ahead, I can. It's like a
commercial for Verizon. I can hear you now, Yes, go ahead.
Speaker 6 (27:19):
So anyway, you talked about the name and all, you
can call me the koy boy. I don't mind that.
I would consider it a term of endearment, you know.
Speaker 1 (27:32):
Miss and mister mister truck if you get koy boy.
Speaker 2 (27:37):
I don't know what he said. I can't understand. I
you got you gotta call that, mister irrigation. The phones,
I can't. It's choppy. We think you might have said
something that might need to be dumb, but we're not
sure because we couldn't really hear it.
Speaker 1 (27:49):
And uh, but we need you to we need you
to call back. I'm sorry.
Speaker 2 (27:53):
I know you were on hole for a long time
and you did make some rings and I wanted to
talk about that, and unfortunately Uh, he's two choppies bad time,
So now he's gonna be all upset. Hey, Tammy in Vegas,
but her heart is in Wisconsin says I loved remember Tammy.
Speaker 1 (28:09):
We met Tammy at the Mala in Vegas. Very nice one.
Speaker 2 (28:12):
Works her ass off there. She says, I loved hearing
you give the brew Cruse some props. I'm excited about
the mis and seeing what he will do. Yeah, something
that looks it looks pretty solid, pretty solid, and we'll
see whether that happens or not. Jay Scoop says, this
was my favorite Chris and Houston call I remember that.
Speaker 1 (28:32):
Yeah, A big, big tennis guy.
Speaker 2 (28:35):
Fred in Nebraska right, since says I believe Minnesota also
told kirk Cousins.
Speaker 1 (28:40):
They were going to draft the quarterback.
Speaker 2 (28:42):
So him saying, if I knew Atlanta was going to
draft the quarterback, I would have never left Minnesota.
Speaker 1 (28:46):
It is Pierre Fowley.
Speaker 2 (28:47):
Fred and Nebraska says that is one reason he left
Minnesota in the first thing. No, what he's saying, though,
Fred is all things being equal, if he knew whether
he stayed in Minnesota or went to Atlanta, kirk Cousins
was going to have to deal with a rookie quarterback.
Speaker 1 (29:01):
He would have just stayed stayed in Minnesota. He wouldn't
have left.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
Let's go back to the phones and Andre and his
dog Willis are in the Commonwealth.
Speaker 1 (29:14):
Hello, Andre, good evening.
Speaker 5 (29:18):
Ben's nice to be with you. Willis and I most
certainly here in the Commonwealth. We got these passing through
the te storms had been coming through, so Willis.
Speaker 2 (29:28):
Willis is fired up. Baby Willis is fired up on
the overnight and.
Speaker 5 (29:33):
We had a good fourth Uh. You know, my heart
goes out to all the tours that were vacating the
Cape and island. They had to wait in the bridge traffic,
you know. But the fourth was a wonderful weekend. But
now we got tea storms throughout the week.
Speaker 6 (29:47):
So I'm up.
Speaker 5 (29:48):
You know, Willis and I we might not be able
to go for the same walk because the trench will downpour,
but we're We're hanging in there. Bett and you started
off talking about the NBA. Frankly, we're talking about having
it up. But I'm already get excited for Benny versus Penny.
I tell you that right now, I'm already you know,
doing my analysis, you know, my top quarterback. You know, one, two,
and three, and four. Its is kind of hotly contested
(30:09):
on that point. I just because we're gonna talk, we're
gonna get in the NBA really quickly been. But relative
to Benny versus the Penny, listen the Chiefs and their
search for the eighth uh you know, eight AFC Championship
game breaking through to another Super Bowl. Then we talked
about it that you were able to do your thing,
chef it up in the kitchen, you know. But you
watch your calories, even though I think you work so
(30:30):
hard you're gonna burn those calories off anyway, but you
watch the calories. My point here is Patrick Mahomes has
been spotted with quite the dad got in his summer pictures.
He's been spotted. You know, he's out there, he's having
a good time. I don't have anything against the dad bot. Okay,
for going on it.
Speaker 2 (30:44):
Does it sounds like your anti dad body. It sounds
to me like you've.
Speaker 1 (30:50):
Taken a strong position against the dad body.
Speaker 5 (30:53):
Negative negative, No, I I nor will it's have anything
against the dad bot. All I'm saying is that Patrick
Mahomes has been getting some shape. I don't think he
deserves it. Okay, he's a guy, Patty Mahome. You neither
a super Bowl or butt for him, okay, but he's
been spotted having a good time, you know, his family
out there, and I think it was a New York
post that, you know, when people were in Kansas City
were getting upset with him. And I'm just saying again,
(31:16):
there's no issue. If you're making super Bowls, you can
roll up there harever you want to, right, Bave Ruth.
You know, he was a portly gentleman, okay, but still
greatest of all times. So I just think myself for
myself and Willis people, I am totally even though myself
then I'm looking forward to getting some of the pizza
and some of the cookies at a Mallard meet and greet,
looking forward, but I do need to do an extra
ship push up or sit up here and there. I'm
(31:37):
just putting it out there.
Speaker 1 (31:38):
Guyah.
Speaker 2 (31:38):
Well, as we like to say the rare and appropriate, well,
you don't do it all the time, but you can
enjoy yourself. And you know you only live once, you
might as well enjoy it. Right, it'd be over before
you know it, right, Willis agrees. I heard Willis agree
Willis's agree with that.
Speaker 5 (31:53):
Take Greece, Yeah, you got out, the callers lined up.
Let's pick it back over to the NBA because Nicola
Jocis at one point he did have a dead okay,
but then he got his he got on his game,
you know, and then he started winning MVP. It's all
a dance right now.
Speaker 6 (32:05):
Okay.
Speaker 5 (32:06):
So is he gonna sign is He's not gonna sign
Al Warford? Possibly to the Warriors. You know, I think
there's another power move that will take place this summer
because I think Giannis is where he ends up. It
might not for sure in Milwaukee, okay, but relative to Denver,
they've done everything to put him in position to win
a championship as far as I'm concerned, bringing in Cam Johnson,
(32:27):
bringing back Boost Brown, Valentunis in the mix. So I
don't think Joki is going anywhere. I think he's just
playing out the string. But they're in good stead in Denver. Boston,
who knows what the heck we're doing giving away Drew
holiday and championship aspirations, But Denver's where they need to be.
Golden State possibly maybe trying to steal Al Warford, which
might line up making it better for Giannis to go there.
Speaker 6 (32:49):
There's some shoes to.
Speaker 5 (32:50):
Be falling going forward from me and willis no need
to be ashamed of the dad body. Okay, just do
a pushing for sit up here or there. You know,
walk a little bit extra. You're gonna off heavy back,
just like you were in your twenties and thirties, better
than ever been. Thanks for taking it all.
Speaker 1 (33:04):
Right, there you go, he's the daddy. Mahomes starts being terrible.
Speaker 2 (33:09):
I didn't play that great last year, but they were
in the freaking super Bowl, so it's hard to rip
the Chiefs. When Mahomes was the offense, they didn't have much,
but he was what they had and they got to
the super Bowl. So if he starts vanishing, then we
revisit them. We'll circle back to that. Mister Irrigation says
he's in Livingston on the overnight tonight. He's thinks he
(33:30):
thinks the phone connection there, the cell reception in Livingston,
Texas not not particularly good. So so close to living
the bambino lifestyle. Livy done the internet celebrity there, very
iconic if you're into like TikTok and all that stuff.
She also happens to have a pretty pretty famous there
(33:53):
boyfriend there, that's the pitcher for the pirates. Well, she
revealed that she put a bid all on Babe Ruth's
old apartment in Manhattan. You see this, no, all right?
So the Bambino, the greatest of all time, he lived
in a three bedroom Upper West Side co op with
(34:15):
his second wife and their adopted daughter between nineteen twenty
and nineteen forty, so twenty years bab Ruth lived there.
Speaker 1 (34:24):
His residence was at.
Speaker 2 (34:25):
Three forty five West eighty eighth Street, and it became available,
and so internet celebrity Libby done. She put a bit
on it and she offered a cash just under one
point six million.
Speaker 1 (34:38):
They hit the market.
Speaker 2 (34:39):
She offered it the full amount, and she was about
to get the property. However, turns out that they you
know co op in New York, you talk about homeowners
association and all that. The co op board decided, the
people that live in the building decided that she was
not worthy of living in their building. They did not
(35:02):
want her as a neighbor because she's like a TikTok star.
Speaker 1 (35:06):
And all that. They didn't want to deal with that crap.
Speaker 2 (35:08):
So they turned her down. Even though she offered the
proper amount. She had the right amount of money to
buy Babe Bruce's old apartment. She said she had lined
up people to redecorated the whole thing, the greatest Yankee
of all times. That would been her first real estate purchase,
but she was denied. What a SOB story? What a
(35:28):
sob story. Imagine just because you're a hot check and
you're on the internet, you can have one point six
million to buy a co op apartment in New York.
Speaker 1 (35:38):
Unbelieve?
Speaker 2 (35:39):
All right, Well, good for her, but not good for
her because of her TikTok career did not quite work
out anyway.
Speaker 5 (35:44):
It is the.
Speaker 2 (35:44):

two games and not ground into a double play.
Speaker 1 (38:12):

Speaker 2 (38:16):
Malaprop guy says it's mister irrigation Keith Ocho Texto.

answer to the ring?
Speaker 1 (38:52):
Mister pac Man, mister.
Speaker 2 (38:54):
Pac Man, not missus pac Man, mister pac Man. No,
it's none other than Craig Bigio.
Speaker 1 (39:00):
He played so long ago they were They weren't the
cheating ash fills when he played, Here we go, Here
we go. How about that?
Speaker 3 (39:07):
To the third degree, this is one big that gets
Grail cool.
Speaker 8 (39:14):
So the Chiefs requested an extension from the state of
Kansas on their offer to build a team a new
stadium if they move over to the Kansas side of
Kansas City, and they were granted that extension until June
of twenty twenty six. The team will have to decide
if they want to play in a renovated Arrowhead in
Missouri or a new domed stadium in Kansas.
Speaker 1 (39:32):
Which do you think they'll go with them?
Speaker 2 (39:34):
Well, I don't understand what the hull of the I
thought Arrowhead was cool because I it's nostalgia when I
was a kid.
Speaker 1 (39:39):
I went there last November.
Speaker 2 (39:41):
That was really great experience because I grew up watching
games at arrow at big games.
Speaker 1 (39:44):
But Kansas is like literally down the street.
Speaker 2 (39:47):
The road one of the roads in Kansas City goes
right through Missouri and Kansas, So to me, it doesn't matter.
Speaker 1 (39:52):
But I think they I think eventually they'll just build
a Dolm in Kansas. I think that's where to go next.
Speaker 8 (39:56):
Patrick Mahomes made a recent podcast appearance where he said
that he thinks this is the deepest group of weapons
that he has had around him on the Chiefs.
Speaker 1 (40:03):
Ben, do you think that's true?
Speaker 2 (40:04):
I feel like he says this every other year, Mahomes,
how about to be determined? I'll see, I'll believe it
when these guys get through training camp not hurt.
Speaker 8 (40:13):
Next Raiders under Mark Davis was reflecting on his father
on what would have been his ninety sixth birthday. He said,
IL loved Vegas and would love seeing the Raiders where
they are now. You wanted to say that Vegas is
the sports and entertainment capital of the world, Ben, Is
he right?
Speaker 1 (40:26):
Well?
Speaker 2 (40:26):
Al would have loved the fact that Vegas bent over
and gave the Raiders everything they wanted, But in terms
of market size, it would have been better if they
stayed in La It's a bigger market. So there it
is malardly third degree
