Speaker 1 (00:00):
Boom shaka laka.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
It's our number two, our number two, and an ownership change,
ownership change in the NFL. What is your verdict on
the transition of powers? As the daughters of Jim Er say,
he passed away recently, so his daughters will be taking
over the ownership of the Colts. We'll talk about that also.
(00:23):
Anthony Richardson has a bumed shoulder. The Colts said, initially
things were fine, he'll be okay. Well, now he's going
to seek another opinion from noted surgeon of the Sports Stars,
Neil elatrosh later this week in La How does that
sound to you? And the Green Bay Packers have fired
defensive back Jaiir Alexander. Question is is he cooked or
(00:46):
is he ready to cook with his next team. We'll
talk about that and more here. It is our number two,
throwing horseshoes and hoping for the best. Well come in
the beginning of another hour of the Ben Balor Show.
Speaker 3 (01:06):
We are in the air awhere, denizens, as we are
millions and millions of miles away unless we're right in
your head right now, coast to coast, border, the border
and beyond on the mast and scorchingly powerful microphones of FSR.
Speaker 2 (01:30):
Amminating live from the Hammer the Sledgehammer as we are
the Sledgehammer Squad from the Fox Sports Radio Studios, as
approved by Jonathan and Delaware, and this portion of the
Ben Maler Show made possible in bart by our friends
at tire Rack.
Speaker 1 (01:47):
For over forty years.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
Forty years, tire Rack has been helping customers find the
right ties for how, what and where they drive, tip
fast and free, backed by free road hazard protection with
convenient installation options like mobile tire installation tire rack dot Com.
Speaker 1 (02:04):
The way tire buying should be.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
So our lead this hour is from Indianapolis, The Changing
of the Guard. Now we're not gonna go to the
NBA Finals because they're on hiatus. Can't work too hard
in a basketball life. Gotta have a lot of time off.
Otherwise the players bitch and we don't want them complaining.
So obviously traveling by stagecoach between Oklahoma and Indiana, but.
Speaker 1 (02:30):
We'll stay with the theme.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
The Indianapolis football team, the pro football team in town,
making some news on a random day in relatively early June.
Relatively early June, you might have seen this, maybe not.
The Colts have gone from having one owner to having
not one, not two, but three three owners. Now, Jim
(02:57):
Mercede died dropped dead there in late May.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
He was a young young man.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
For most people say sixty five, you should live longer
than that, but he was sixty five and had a
hard life and he checked out. So Ersay, Jim Irsay
done and the NFL franchise announcing that the chain of
command the official transition phase as they go from the
(03:24):
Gilded Age to a different gilded age. Jim Irsay's three daughters,
which sounds like a reality show, are going to take
over now. We talked about this in a previous episode
of the show, but it is now reality. The triumvirent
is going to be Carly Ursay, Gordon, Casey Foyt, and
(03:44):
Kaylin Jackson. They will all have leadership roles with the
Indianapolis Colts and that continues the Ursay bloodline, fifty plus
years of ownership. And boy, nobody loves Ersay more than
the people of Baltimore and what he did for their
fine set of the old man, you know, Jim Irsay's dad.
Speaker 1 (04:04):
So that's where we are now.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
We're told Carly Ursay Gordon, who's forty four will assume
the title as the CEO and principal owner.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
However, however, you know.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
If you've got siblings, you know that there will be
a sibling rivalry in play. The other sisters will be
involved and they will have a say in the eyes
of the NFL. The oldest one, Carli Ersay Gordon, will
be the one that is the owner. I'll see how
this plays out. So let us discuss the question for
the Esteem panel. What is your verdict on this transition
(04:42):
of Colts ownership from jim Irsay.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
Who died to the three daughters.
Speaker 2 (04:48):
So I've got olive garden, Pokemon cards, and silverware, and
we will combine all of these things together and we
are going to make the surf and turf at Saint
Elmo's Steakhouse there in Indianapolis, where we're always They always
get on TV because the broadcasters they love going there
and getting the surf and turf at the steakhouse there
(05:09):
in Indianapolis. But my thought on this, my first thought,
which as we know, is number one. The circus is
officially in town. Come one, come all fun for all
ages under the big top we go in Indianapolis. Yeah, now,
not the kind of circus with the cotton candy and
(05:32):
the clown on the little bicycle and the parade of
elephants they used to have back and they not that. No, No,
this particular circus is the Jim Ersay Legacy clown Show.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
Which will be taking over there in Indianapolis.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
Starring the next generation. We mentioned the Gilded Age, but
the next generation of the football hierarchy there the Ersay
daughters take over. And let's break this down. So the
line of secession appears to be a line of regression.
(06:08):
Not that Jim Mersay was the greatest owner in the world.
He did care. He loved being Jim Irsay and being
the guy that didn't really do anything to own the team,
just being born into it. Now the daughters take over,
so it's the third generation. And as we have preached
about from our knightly sermons here on the Bully pulpit,
(06:31):
we have mentioned many times that when you have the
family passing on the franchise to the next generation, they
give the keys to the franchise to the next line,
the trust fund group that takes over. It just doesn't
go all that well. Right, It's like, all right, we're
(06:52):
gonna hand the franchise over, the keys to the franchise there,
to the trust fund, beach house there in the Hamptons
or South Beach wherever.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
And just knock yourself out.
Speaker 2 (07:02):
Now we're heading into the third generation, if my math
is correct, the third generation of URSA ownership.
Speaker 1 (07:07):
It's a family business.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
And unlike your mom and pop Pizzeriha, which gets handed
down to the next generation, it's an NFL franchise worth
four point eight billion. Four point eight billion. Good luck, seriously,
good luck to the cole fans. You're supposed to sit
there and just pretend that this is some kind of
beautiful sentimental moment and just tugs at the heartstrings and
(07:34):
so like the next chapter and some kind of rich person's.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
Fairy tale, and how amazing.
Speaker 2 (07:40):
Of course, I would argue, give me a bleep and
break on that, right, I mean, what are we doing here.
You're watching your franchise get passed around like it's a
breadstick there at Olive Garden. There's only one left in
the basket and everyone's trying to grab it and all
that stuff. And so I know, in sports, there's the
thought that if you have in baseball, if you have
two left fielders you don't have one. That was the flawed.
(08:02):
Now the nerds think you need to have five left fielders,
but for a long time it was if you have
two left fielders, you don't have one. If you've got
two quarterbacks, you don't have one. So if you have
three owners, you don't really have one. Isn't that the
way it works? Like the mindset and all.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
That that too many chefs spoil the broth. I've heard
that along the way. We'll find out, we'll find out.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
In the coming days and whatnot there, and generally speaking,
old family money, three headed ownership nightmare, old family money,
treating the team like an ATM machine, And there's a
lot of money you need, petty cash.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
There's a lot of cash there.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
If your family happens to own an NFL team, it
just doesn't go well. My examples, my evidence Genie Buss
with the Lakers, horrible owner, most embarrassing owner in basketball
right now. How about Mark Davis with the Raiders not
exactly lighting the world on fire there, And there's a
bunch of other examples now page two. So we stay
with the team in Indianapolis, but we go to the
(09:00):
injury tent because there was a new development that came out.
If we saw this or not. Despite some early positive
reports that everything was gonna be okay, we were skeptical.
And it turns out that a little ounce of skepticism
pays off in the end. We've learned of a setback,
a setback for the great bust of Indianapolis, and not
(09:25):
a Hall of Fame bust, just a bust in the
quarterback there.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
Is it true?
Speaker 2 (09:32):
Is it true that Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson, who should
have been drafted in the sixth or seventh round but
was picked in the first round because jimmers they had
a bug up his took us and wanted to take him.
That Anthony Richardson has a bum shoulder, and despite those
initial reports, despite those initial reports of optimism, that Anthony
(09:53):
Richardson will seek a second opinion from surgeon to the
Stars Neil elatrosh later this week in Los Angeles. How
does that sound to you? So I will I will
tackle this before you tackle this. So this is a brochure.
It is a brochure for a nice vacation to the
(10:15):
land of trouble, is what it is?
Speaker 1 (10:18):
Right?
Speaker 2 (10:18):
It sounds to me like someone that does not trust
the medical staff there in Indianapolis. If you trusted the
Colts doctors, you would not be going out and getting
a second opinion on your shoulder.
Speaker 1 (10:31):
That's what it sounds like.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
He's taking outside counsel Anthony Richardson, which would.
Speaker 1 (10:37):
Be a dead giveaway.
Speaker 2 (10:39):
That he thinks there's something more going on and he
doesn't believe the team doctor there with the Colts, and
Anthony Richardson is collecting second opinions and maybe they'll go
third and the fourth opinion like Pokemon cards. He's collecting
second and third opinions and all this stuff. And doctor
Elatrash who replaced doctor Job, who was the legendary doctor
that came up with the Frankenstein and like Tommy John surgery,
(11:01):
it's not called the Frank Job surgery, it's called the
Tommy John surgery.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
Anyway, Doctor la Trash replaced.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
Him and as the surgeon to the sports stars and
all that stuff. And he's the guy that operated on
Richardson back in twenty twenty three on his shoulder. And
so that adds another layer of curiosity here. And I'll
tell you why, okay, because it was previously again tossed
(11:27):
out by the Colts and people around the Colts that
there was no structural damage to Anthony Richardson's shoulder, that
they had a scan that was performed and it was okay.
So if there's lingering inflammation, if this is an inflammation
situation and soreness and all that two years, two years
(11:48):
after the surgical procedure, that means ding ding ding ding ning.
Alarm bells, alarm bells.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
Going woo wooooo. That's what it sounds like. Whoo those
are alarm bells. You hear them. I can hear them.
You get woo alarm bells right there.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
Now I cannot wait for the third opinion because the
smart money says, now, if Anthony Richardson visited the doctor
of the Sports Stars, doctor latrosh in Los Angeles, you
know who else is in LA doctor Nick Riviera from
the Simpsons, So he can visit doctor.
Speaker 1 (12:23):
Nick Riviera there.
Speaker 2 (12:24):
And when he's in LA and they write the Simpsons episodes,
they make them somewhere else, but they write them in
LA and so he can go there and then boom,
you're good.
Speaker 1 (12:31):
All right.
Speaker 2 (12:32):
Now, final point. We head now to the frozen tundra
where it's not so frozen these days. The Green Bay
Packers have said bye bye. They have fired Jaire Alexander,
a team captain. Hey going, JayR Alexander? He has cooked?
Speaker 1 (12:49):
Or is he? That's the question.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
So this guy pretty popular player, one of the highest
ranked defensive players at his position in the NFL in
the last five.
Speaker 1 (13:00):
Or six years or so.
Speaker 2 (13:02):
So the Packers have fired Jayir Alexander, defensive back. Is
he cooked or ready to cook? Is he cooked or
ready to cook? That's the question. He will find a
new team, someone will sign him, someone will give him
a big bag of money. But is he cooked, JayR Alexander?
(13:25):
Or is he ready to cook? So my advice is
to get the silverware out, to set the table, put
the tablecloth down, put the napkins out. Because he's cooked,
all right, He's cooked. That's it. He's got the name,
not the game. Got the name not the game. Seen
a lot of that. And of course I'm concerned because
my Rams are one of the teams that is supposedly
(13:48):
interested in Jaii Alexander, because you can never have enough
a quarter of defensive backs that are teetering on the
brink of falling off the map. And he's a diminished asset.
Now we have seen players have a career renaissance when
they change teams. The Packers, though, determined that they didn't
want to pay him the contract, which means he was
(14:10):
not earning the contracts in their opinion, So they said, hey,
why don't we give you a pay cut? And he said,
go pound sand which I don't have a problem with him.
If you don't want to play for that salary, go
somewhere else. He feels confident he can go somewhere else.
Now Green Bay also had him on the auctioning block.
He was in the flea market and nobody was bidding.
(14:32):
No bidders, no, no, no, no, no, nobody want So
the cheese heads were like, ah, no, well we're good,
take a hike.
Speaker 1 (14:40):
We tried to trade to nobody wanted to.
Speaker 2 (14:42):
You don't want to take a pay cut, get the
heck out of here, and don't let the state of
Wisconsin state line kick your ass when you leave her.
So the big reason why after a minutes long malar
investigation is the bugaboo, the injury bug and durabil significant concern,
(15:03):
significant concern. There is no durability and Alexander has missed
twenty games over the last two seasons. Now, I didn't
play in the NFL, and I'm not some former coach.
I'm just a gas bag. Don't think that's good.
Speaker 1 (15:15):
Don't. Oh, you're being mean, Ben, I know I'm a
shock jock.
Speaker 2 (15:20):
Missing twenty days of work when you only play seventeen
a year is not particularly good over a two year period.
Speaker 1 (15:29):
You're such a hater. You're a player hater. Okay, I know.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
Anyway, he has had back problems, shoulder problems, other injuries.
Played only seven games each of the last two years,
and Jaira is twenty.
Speaker 1 (15:43):
Eight, which is not old. Not old.
Speaker 2 (15:46):
However, we know what happens when you get close to thirty,
or you cross over thirty, and the injuries start piling up, up, up,
like laundry when you don't do the laundry for a
day or two and it piles up, or you don't
do the issues, and then you get to like the
flies hovering around and they're eating like that that tomato
sauce that's on the plate from the spaghetti that you had,
(16:07):
and it's disgusting, and they're picking at the mac and
cheese and they get the lids. Just terrible so you
got to take care of this stuff. And so he
will find a job. We don't doubt that. But generally
these guys get slow, they get soft, and they they're
cooked at that point.
Speaker 1 (16:24):
And we'll see.
Speaker 2 (16:26):
We would be surprised if here Alexander has a career
renaissance in some other laundry. But we'll find out. I'm
assuming he'll get a job here pretty soon. Training camps
open up in about a month and a half from
most teams in the NFL, so he's got a little
bit of time to play with. He's got again, he's
got a name. People know who he is. Not a
(16:47):
lot of defensive players, you know who they are, but
even a casual NFL fan would know that name. To
hear Alexander, it is the Ben Mahler Show, if you'd
like to be part eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox.
That's eight seven seven nine nine six six three six nine.
Also on the X Machine at Ben Mahller. That's at
Ben Maller. So we'll do some arithmetic here. This is
(17:09):
not a riddle. It is not a The riddle is next. Now,
this is not a riddle. So what do exotic cars,
lavish steak and table side flames have in common with sports?
Speaker 1 (17:25):
What do they have in common? We'll get to that
and we will do it next.
Speaker 4 (17:33):

Coop at a Bronco fan Mallard of the third Degree coming.
Speaker 1 (18:22):
Up later in the hour. Back to it All, right,
back to it we go, and.
Speaker 2 (18:27):
As we began here with a NFL themed Mallard monologue.
Milkman Mike all right, since his great take on the
complexity of the new Colts ownership. But that's his way
of saying it was not a great take. I believe
you're not giving them enough credit. When Pat Boldman passed
(18:50):
away and his kids took over the Broncos, things ran great.
They got along and we won multiple championships unless we didn't.
Speaker 1 (18:59):
All right, it's almost never.
Speaker 2 (19:01):
I mean, there are I'm sure some examples of teams
that the owner died and the kids took.
Speaker 1 (19:05):
Over and it went well.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
You always want the people that got the money to
buy the team and earned it, and not just because
they won the genetic lottery.
Speaker 1 (19:18):
And they have the right DNA and they.
Speaker 2 (19:20):
Were born with the old silver spoon. As the line goes,
like just you don't have the passion, you know. You
think all these tech billionaires that we have now, like
Elon Musk and Zuckerberg and all these gazillionaires, right, and
they have kids, and eventually the kids will take over
these businesses and it will be a disaster. This is
(19:42):
always a disaster. That's usually the way it goes. And
so the sequel is not the equal at all.
Speaker 1 (19:52):
It's not there.
Speaker 2 (19:53):
You go, let's see supermarket seem says Jim Irsay made
all his daughter's work in every level of.
Speaker 1 (20:00):
The colts c U L T.
Speaker 2 (20:03):
S He says, is that a cult organization from janitor
and concession clerk all the way up to the front office,
just like his father made him do in order to
be part of the colts. A fat chance he had
his daughter's scrubbing toilet, so probably not.
Speaker 1 (20:18):
Probably not.
Speaker 2 (20:18):
All right, let's go to the phone. We did have
a guy with the golden ticketm but he hung up.
So let's say hello to e Dog who's in New York.
What's going on? Dog on Long Island?
Speaker 5 (20:28):

Speaker 6 (21:20):

Speaker 5 (21:48):

Speaker 2 (21:55):
And you have roommates that you like and they're good people,
and you know one of your roommates I'm doing.
Speaker 5 (22:01):
I got to tell you a story, all right, man?
And he goes like this. When I was living in Melville, Okay,
I went next door. It was in my friend Joe.
It was another Joe. That's Joe dog No.
Speaker 2 (22:12):
So that's not because I thought it was Joe. When
you say the name Joe, I think Joe dog No,
another Joe.
Speaker 5 (22:19):
I looked in the refrigerator, and when I looked on
the refrigerator, it was his sister who went underfeeder for
Quinipiac College in Tennis. So Joe, my friend Joe goes
to me, Oh, Eric.
Speaker 6 (22:32):
My money is on you.
Speaker 5 (22:33):
Maybe my money is on you. And also when I
went next door, I went next door to see Joe
and his mother was home by herself, and she goes,
come on in and she and then she said sit down.
So I sat down.
Speaker 6 (22:46):
And then she's like, oh, you gotta leave.
Speaker 5 (22:49):

Speaker 7 (25:32):
Was a jockey and uh it's June third, nineteen twenty
three at Belmont. He won a race and he died.
He crossed the finish line as the winner.
Speaker 6 (25:46):
Now, then that's spectacular.
Speaker 7 (25:50):
I don't think that feat will ever happen again, never again.
Speaker 1 (25:54):
Yeah, Well, the thing like that, And I've heard I
don't know the name.
Speaker 2 (25:58):
I've heard the story of the jockey the horse one
without the jockey because the jockey died and in the race.
Speaker 1 (26:05):
I don't know the name.
Speaker 2 (26:06):
But here's the thing I mean that can only be matched,
that can't you can't break. That's an unbreakable record. You
can tie the record, but no one's gonna die. Well,
I say, no one's gonna die twice. But then we
had Holiday who did die twice. He had two heart
attacks and you had to be brought back twice. But
generally speaking, if you're a jockey and you die at
the second quarter part, you're you're not gonna Yeah, that's it.
Speaker 1 (26:29):
You can. Yeah.
Speaker 7 (26:30):
What the mascot for the militia is actually the horse
sweet Kiss, because I believe you know, when you see
all those other jockeys looking at that horse's ass and
love him, I mean, that's just that's just the best.
I'm gonna put that on the ring. It's gonna have
(26:52):
a number one with a horse's ass everywhere.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
That's right.
Speaker 2 (26:58):
You go there some the rings bling bling, some blingal well,
if it looks good, you know, I want to be
listening to pop. You The last rings you made were
amazing years ago, and they were great. Everyone loved them,
and so I'm excited I I did see them.
Speaker 6 (27:13):
I want to give everybody.
Speaker 1 (27:16):
Oh how about that, everyone that wins a Benny's gonna
get a ring. That's cool.
Speaker 2 (27:20):
That is going to crank up the We are gonna
have so many people in the Bennies we might have
to do it over two days.
Speaker 1 (27:25):
They're gonna have that many people. It's wild.
Speaker 7 (27:28):
I think that's a great idea.
Speaker 1 (27:29):
So thank you all right, buddy that they're great.
Speaker 2 (27:34):

Take it easy, thank you.
Speaker 2 (34:14):
It is the Ben Mahler Show. And straight ahead, we
are going to have Mallor to the third degree. But first,
here's the instant trivia. Blank is the only player to
lead his team and hits doubles, home runs, runs scored, RBIs,
and stolen bases through sixty five team games in a
(34:34):
season and do it three times in his career. No
other MLB player has done it more than once. Again,
Blank the only player to lead his team and hits doubles,
home runs, run scored rbies and stolen bases through sixty
five team games in a season, do it three times
in his career. No one else in baseball history and
(34:55):
live ball era has done it more than one time.
That is the instant ah trivia. The answer, and we
will get to Mallard of the third degree, and we
will do it next.
Speaker 4 (35:06):
Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in
the nation. Catch all of our shows at foxsports Radio

time now for the Insta trivia. We're have Mallard of
the third degree. But here's the Insta trivia. Blank is
the old only player to lead his team and hits doubles,
(36:02):
home runs, run scored RBIs, and stolen bases through sixty
five team games. In a season three times in his career.
No other MLB player has done that more than once
in the live ball era. That's since nineteen twenty, so
one hundred and twenty five years of baseball.
Speaker 1 (36:20):
That is the question. What is the answer.
Speaker 2 (36:24):
Scrooge is going with the iconic San Diego Chicken, which
was originally a radio mascot in San Diego.
Speaker 1 (36:30):
Ferg dog is. I think he's out on vacation tonight.
Speaker 2 (36:34):
He's going with Emilio Estevez yet again, he's given up
mister irrigation, says the sweet Kiss Mala Militia mascot. A
horses took us. Jim Ers from Femi, the number one
uber each driver Downtown, Freddie Brown from Shane in Des Moines,
Lawrence Welk from Milkman Mike in Colorado, Eric Lindros from
(36:56):
alf the alien O Piner could get there.
Speaker 1 (36:59):
Who else do we have?
Speaker 2 (37:00):
Maxwell Klinger from King Rory, former Red Spitcher, Scott Scudder
from Bay City, Tony. That's his is Bobby Hill from
Mason and Huntington Beach. All right, do you have an answer?
Speaker 1 (37:13):
Please? Lorena? Yes, I'm gonna go with Greg Maddox.
Speaker 2 (37:17):
Bet Greg Maddocks, all right, by big, prolific home run
hitter back and they a lot of doubles, a lot
of RBIs no, The correct answer is Jose Ramirez of
the Cleveland formerly known Indians, butnagas.
Speaker 1 (37:27):
They're named after a bridge in Cleveland, the bridges. Here
we go, Here we go.
Speaker 4 (37:34):
To the three we go. This is one gets qrail
all right?
Speaker 1 (37:41):
Cool.
Speaker 8 (37:42):
WWE superstar Seth Rollins has some hot NFL takes and
a recent podcast appearance, Rolin says that he thinks Caleb
Williams will have a better season than Jayden Daniels this year.
He signed better coaching for Williams and a sophomore slump
for Daniels. Now, Ben Williams being better than Daniels might
be ridiculous, but Daniels will have a sophomore slump.
Speaker 2 (38:02):
Well, the team formerly knows the Redskins are gonna be
playing a tougher schedule and all that, So.
Speaker 1 (38:09):
You move your mic. By the way, the issue here
is whether or not they can get back to the
NFC title game. No, I would not think Washington is
getting back to the NFC title game.
Speaker 2 (38:16):
So by that account, they will have a worse season
in year two than he did in year one. I'm
not taking my takes from Seth Ronds. I'm skeptical about
Camble Williams still the lot. There's a lot he's got
to improve in a short amount of time.
Speaker 8 (38:30):
Next, Craig Kimberl made a very brief return to the
Atlanta Braves, being called up Friday and then sent back
down on Saturday. Braves coach Brian Snicker called Kimberle's scoreless
outing lucky. Now, that's not nice. I know it seems
Kimberl's major league career maybe nearing its end. Is he
a Hall of Famer?
Speaker 5 (38:50):
No?
Speaker 1 (38:51):
I mean the issue is the same numbers. He was
a Rookie of the Year.
Speaker 2 (38:54):
He's made a bunch of all start But if you
go by just the pure numbers, yes, he didn't look
like a Hall of Famer, though, I vote no.
Speaker 1 (39:01):
Next.
Speaker 8 (39:01):
Before Kershaw helped lead the Dodgers to a win over
the Cardinals on Sunday, Redbirds attempt to control Kershaw by
showing the three on run home run he gave up
in the twenty fourteen NLDS.
Speaker 1 (39:10):
After the game, Kershaw called it bush league? Was it
bush league?
Speaker 8 (39:13):
Ben?
Speaker 1 (39:13):
No, It's hilarious.
Speaker 2 (39:15):
Don't give up home runs like that Carshaw, you run
ten years of my.
Speaker 1 (39:18):
Life, Larious, that's a win. I'll hold up the b
Boom shaka laka.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
It's our number two, our number two, and an ownership change,
ownership change in the NFL. What is your verdict on
the transition of powers? As the daughters of Jim Er say,
he passed away recently, so his daughters will be taking
over the ownership of the Colts. We'll talk about that also.
(00:23):
Anthony Richardson has a bumed shoulder. The Colts said, initially
things were fine, he'll be okay. Well, now he's going
to seek another opinion from noted surgeon of the Sports Stars,
Neil elatrosh later this week in La How does that
sound to you? And the Green Bay Packers have fired
defensive back Jaiir Alexander. Question is is he cooked or
(00:46):
is he ready to cook with his next team. We'll
talk about that and more here. It is our number two,
throwing horseshoes and hoping for the best. Well come in
the beginning of another hour of the Ben Balor Show.
Speaker 3 (01:06):
We are in the air awhere, denizens, as we are
millions and millions of miles away unless we're right in
your head right now, coast to coast, border, the border
and beyond on the mast and scorchingly powerful microphones of FSR.
Speaker 2 (01:30):
Amminating live from the Hammer the Sledgehammer as we are
the Sledgehammer Squad from the Fox Sports Radio Studios, as
approved by Jonathan and Delaware, and this portion of the
Ben Maler Show made possible in bart by our friends
at tire Rack.
Speaker 1 (01:47):
For over forty years.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
Forty years, tire Rack has been helping customers find the
right ties for how, what and where they drive, tip
fast and free, backed by free road hazard protection with
convenient installation options like mobile tire installation tire rack dot Com.
Speaker 1 (02:04):
The way tire buying should be.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
So our lead this hour is from Indianapolis, The Changing
of the Guard. Now we're not gonna go to the
NBA Finals because they're on hiatus. Can't work too hard
in a basketball life. Gotta have a lot of time off.
Otherwise the players bitch and we don't want them complaining.
So obviously traveling by stagecoach between Oklahoma and Indiana, but.
Speaker 1 (02:30):
We'll stay with the theme.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
The Indianapolis football team, the pro football team in town,
making some news on a random day in relatively early June.
Relatively early June, you might have seen this, maybe not.
The Colts have gone from having one owner to having
not one, not two, but three three owners. Now, Jim
(02:57):
Mercede died dropped dead there in late May.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
He was a young young man.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
For most people say sixty five, you should live longer
than that, but he was sixty five and had a
hard life and he checked out. So Ersay, Jim Irsay
done and the NFL franchise announcing that the chain of
command the official transition phase as they go from the
(03:24):
Gilded Age to a different gilded age. Jim Irsay's three daughters,
which sounds like a reality show, are going to take
over now. We talked about this in a previous episode
of the show, but it is now reality. The triumvirent
is going to be Carly Ursay, Gordon, Casey Foyt, and
(03:44):
Kaylin Jackson. They will all have leadership roles with the
Indianapolis Colts and that continues the Ursay bloodline, fifty plus
years of ownership. And boy, nobody loves Ersay more than
the people of Baltimore and what he did for their
fine set of the old man, you know, Jim Irsay's dad.
Speaker 1 (04:04):
So that's where we are now.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
We're told Carly Ursay Gordon, who's forty four will assume
the title as the CEO and principal owner.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
However, however, you know.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
If you've got siblings, you know that there will be
a sibling rivalry in play. The other sisters will be
involved and they will have a say in the eyes
of the NFL. The oldest one, Carli Ersay Gordon, will
be the one that is the owner. I'll see how
this plays out. So let us discuss the question for
the Esteem panel. What is your verdict on this transition
(04:42):
of Colts ownership from jim Irsay.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
Who died to the three daughters.
Speaker 2 (04:48):
So I've got olive garden, Pokemon cards, and silverware, and
we will combine all of these things together and we
are going to make the surf and turf at Saint
Elmo's Steakhouse there in Indianapolis, where we're always They always
get on TV because the broadcasters they love going there
and getting the surf and turf at the steakhouse there
(05:09):
in Indianapolis. But my thought on this, my first thought,
which as we know, is number one. The circus is
officially in town. Come one, come all fun for all
ages under the big top we go in Indianapolis. Yeah, now,
not the kind of circus with the cotton candy and
(05:32):
the clown on the little bicycle and the parade of
elephants they used to have back and they not that. No, No,
this particular circus is the Jim Ersay Legacy clown Show.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
Which will be taking over there in Indianapolis.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
Starring the next generation. We mentioned the Gilded Age, but
the next generation of the football hierarchy there the Ersay
daughters take over. And let's break this down. So the
line of secession appears to be a line of regression.
(06:08):
Not that Jim Mersay was the greatest owner in the world.
He did care. He loved being Jim Irsay and being
the guy that didn't really do anything to own the team,
just being born into it. Now the daughters take over,
so it's the third generation. And as we have preached
about from our knightly sermons here on the Bully pulpit,
(06:31):
we have mentioned many times that when you have the
family passing on the franchise to the next generation, they
give the keys to the franchise to the next line,
the trust fund group that takes over. It just doesn't
go all that well. Right, It's like, all right, we're
(06:52):
gonna hand the franchise over, the keys to the franchise there,
to the trust fund, beach house there in the Hamptons
or South Beach wherever.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
And just knock yourself out.
Speaker 2 (07:02):
Now we're heading into the third generation, if my math
is correct, the third generation of URSA ownership.
Speaker 1 (07:07):
It's a family business.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
And unlike your mom and pop Pizzeriha, which gets handed
down to the next generation, it's an NFL franchise worth
four point eight billion. Four point eight billion. Good luck, seriously,
good luck to the cole fans. You're supposed to sit
there and just pretend that this is some kind of
beautiful sentimental moment and just tugs at the heartstrings and
(07:34):
so like the next chapter and some kind of rich person's.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
Fairy tale, and how amazing.
Speaker 2 (07:40):
Of course, I would argue, give me a bleep and
break on that, right, I mean, what are we doing here.
You're watching your franchise get passed around like it's a
breadstick there at Olive Garden. There's only one left in
the basket and everyone's trying to grab it and all
that stuff. And so I know, in sports, there's the
thought that if you have in baseball, if you have
two left fielders you don't have one. That was the flawed.
(08:02):
Now the nerds think you need to have five left fielders,
but for a long time it was if you have
two left fielders, you don't have one. If you've got
two quarterbacks, you don't have one. So if you have
three owners, you don't really have one. Isn't that the
way it works? Like the mindset and all.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
That that too many chefs spoil the broth. I've heard
that along the way. We'll find out, we'll find out.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
In the coming days and whatnot there, and generally speaking,
old family money, three headed ownership nightmare, old family money,
treating the team like an ATM machine, And there's a
lot of money you need, petty cash.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
There's a lot of cash there.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
If your family happens to own an NFL team, it
just doesn't go well. My examples, my evidence Genie Buss
with the Lakers, horrible owner, most embarrassing owner in basketball
right now. How about Mark Davis with the Raiders not
exactly lighting the world on fire there, And there's a
bunch of other examples now page two. So we stay
with the team in Indianapolis, but we go to the
(09:00):
injury tent because there was a new development that came out.
If we saw this or not. Despite some early positive
reports that everything was gonna be okay, we were skeptical.
And it turns out that a little ounce of skepticism
pays off in the end. We've learned of a setback,
a setback for the great bust of Indianapolis, and not
(09:25):
a Hall of Fame bust, just a bust in the
quarterback there.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
Is it true?
Speaker 2 (09:32):
Is it true that Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson, who should
have been drafted in the sixth or seventh round but
was picked in the first round because jimmers they had
a bug up his took us and wanted to take him.
That Anthony Richardson has a bum shoulder, and despite those
initial reports, despite those initial reports of optimism, that Anthony
(09:53):
Richardson will seek a second opinion from surgeon to the
Stars Neil elatrosh later this week in Los Angeles. How
does that sound to you? So I will I will
tackle this before you tackle this. So this is a brochure.
It is a brochure for a nice vacation to the
(10:15):
land of trouble, is what it is?
Speaker 1 (10:18):
Right?
Speaker 2 (10:18):
It sounds to me like someone that does not trust
the medical staff there in Indianapolis. If you trusted the
Colts doctors, you would not be going out and getting
a second opinion on your shoulder.
Speaker 1 (10:31):
That's what it sounds like.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
He's taking outside counsel Anthony Richardson, which would.
Speaker 1 (10:37):
Be a dead giveaway.
Speaker 2 (10:39):
That he thinks there's something more going on and he
doesn't believe the team doctor there with the Colts, and
Anthony Richardson is collecting second opinions and maybe they'll go
third and the fourth opinion like Pokemon cards. He's collecting
second and third opinions and all this stuff. And doctor
Elatrash who replaced doctor Job, who was the legendary doctor
that came up with the Frankenstein and like Tommy John surgery,
(11:01):
it's not called the Frank Job surgery, it's called the
Tommy John surgery.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
Anyway, Doctor la Trash replaced.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
Him and as the surgeon to the sports stars and
all that stuff. And he's the guy that operated on
Richardson back in twenty twenty three on his shoulder. And
so that adds another layer of curiosity here. And I'll
tell you why, okay, because it was previously again tossed
(11:27):
out by the Colts and people around the Colts that
there was no structural damage to Anthony Richardson's shoulder, that
they had a scan that was performed and it was okay.
So if there's lingering inflammation, if this is an inflammation
situation and soreness and all that two years, two years
(11:48):
after the surgical procedure, that means ding ding ding ding ning.
Alarm bells, alarm bells.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
Going woo wooooo. That's what it sounds like. Whoo those
are alarm bells. You hear them. I can hear them.
You get woo alarm bells right there.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
Now I cannot wait for the third opinion because the
smart money says, now, if Anthony Richardson visited the doctor
of the Sports Stars, doctor latrosh in Los Angeles, you
know who else is in LA doctor Nick Riviera from
the Simpsons, So he can visit doctor.
Speaker 1 (12:23):
Nick Riviera there.
Speaker 2 (12:24):
And when he's in LA and they write the Simpsons episodes,
they make them somewhere else, but they write them in
LA and so he can go there and then boom,
you're good.
Speaker 1 (12:31):
All right.
Speaker 2 (12:32):
Now, final point. We head now to the frozen tundra
where it's not so frozen these days. The Green Bay
Packers have said bye bye. They have fired Jaire Alexander,
a team captain. Hey going, JayR Alexander? He has cooked?
Speaker 1 (12:49):
Or is he? That's the question.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
So this guy pretty popular player, one of the highest
ranked defensive players at his position in the NFL in
the last five.
Speaker 1 (13:00):
Or six years or so.
Speaker 2 (13:02):
So the Packers have fired Jayir Alexander, defensive back. Is
he cooked or ready to cook? Is he cooked or
ready to cook? That's the question. He will find a
new team, someone will sign him, someone will give him
a big bag of money. But is he cooked, JayR Alexander?
(13:25):
Or is he ready to cook? So my advice is
to get the silverware out, to set the table, put
the tablecloth down, put the napkins out. Because he's cooked,
all right, He's cooked. That's it. He's got the name,
not the game. Got the name not the game. Seen
a lot of that. And of course I'm concerned because
my Rams are one of the teams that is supposedly
(13:48):
interested in Jaii Alexander, because you can never have enough
a quarter of defensive backs that are teetering on the
brink of falling off the map. And he's a diminished asset.
Now we have seen players have a career renaissance when
they change teams. The Packers, though, determined that they didn't
want to pay him the contract, which means he was
(14:10):
not earning the contracts in their opinion, So they said, hey,
why don't we give you a pay cut? And he said,
go pound sand which I don't have a problem with him.
If you don't want to play for that salary, go
somewhere else. He feels confident he can go somewhere else.
Now Green Bay also had him on the auctioning block.
He was in the flea market and nobody was bidding.
(14:32):
No bidders, no, no, no, no, no, nobody want So
the cheese heads were like, ah, no, well we're good,
take a hike.
Speaker 1 (14:40):
We tried to trade to nobody wanted to.
Speaker 2 (14:42):
You don't want to take a pay cut, get the
heck out of here, and don't let the state of
Wisconsin state line kick your ass when you leave her.
So the big reason why after a minutes long malar
investigation is the bugaboo, the injury bug and durabil significant concern,
(15:03):
significant concern. There is no durability and Alexander has missed
twenty games over the last two seasons. Now, I didn't
play in the NFL, and I'm not some former coach.
I'm just a gas bag. Don't think that's good.
Speaker 1 (15:15):
Don't. Oh, you're being mean, Ben, I know I'm a
shock jock.
Speaker 2 (15:20):
Missing twenty days of work when you only play seventeen
a year is not particularly good over a two year period.
Speaker 1 (15:29):
You're such a hater. You're a player hater. Okay, I know.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
Anyway, he has had back problems, shoulder problems, other injuries.
Played only seven games each of the last two years,
and Jaira is twenty.
Speaker 1 (15:43):
Eight, which is not old. Not old.
Speaker 2 (15:46):
However, we know what happens when you get close to thirty,
or you cross over thirty, and the injuries start piling up, up, up,
like laundry when you don't do the laundry for a
day or two and it piles up, or you don't
do the issues, and then you get to like the
flies hovering around and they're eating like that that tomato
sauce that's on the plate from the spaghetti that you had,
(16:07):
and it's disgusting, and they're picking at the mac and
cheese and they get the lids. Just terrible so you
got to take care of this stuff. And so he
will find a job. We don't doubt that. But generally
these guys get slow, they get soft, and they they're
cooked at that point.
Speaker 1 (16:24):
And we'll see.
Speaker 2 (16:26):
We would be surprised if here Alexander has a career
renaissance in some other laundry. But we'll find out. I'm
assuming he'll get a job here pretty soon. Training camps
open up in about a month and a half from
most teams in the NFL, so he's got a little
bit of time to play with. He's got again, he's
got a name. People know who he is. Not a
(16:47):
lot of defensive players, you know who they are, but
even a casual NFL fan would know that name. To
hear Alexander, it is the Ben Mahler Show, if you'd
like to be part eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox.
That's eight seven seven nine nine six six three six nine.
Also on the X Machine at Ben Mahller. That's at
Ben Maller. So we'll do some arithmetic here. This is
(17:09):
not a riddle. It is not a The riddle is next. Now,
this is not a riddle. So what do exotic cars,
lavish steak and table side flames have in common with sports?
Speaker 1 (17:25):
What do they have in common? We'll get to that
and we will do it next.

Speaker 1 (18:22):
Up later in the hour. Back to it All, right,
back to it we go, and.
Speaker 2 (18:27):
As we began here with a NFL themed Mallard monologue.
Milkman Mike all right, since his great take on the
complexity of the new Colts ownership. But that's his way
of saying it was not a great take. I believe
you're not giving them enough credit. When Pat Boldman passed
(18:50):
away and his kids took over the Broncos, things ran great.
They got along and we won multiple championships unless we didn't.
Speaker 1 (18:59):
All right, it's almost never.
Speaker 2 (19:01):
I mean, there are I'm sure some examples of teams
that the owner died and the kids took.
Speaker 1 (19:05):
Over and it went well.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
You always want the people that got the money to
buy the team and earned it, and not just because
they won the genetic lottery.
Speaker 1 (19:18):
And they have the right DNA and they.
Speaker 2 (19:20):
Were born with the old silver spoon. As the line goes,
like just you don't have the passion, you know. You
think all these tech billionaires that we have now, like
Elon Musk and Zuckerberg and all these gazillionaires, right, and
they have kids, and eventually the kids will take over
these businesses and it will be a disaster. This is
(19:42):
always a disaster. That's usually the way it goes. And
so the sequel is not the equal at all.
Speaker 1 (19:52):
It's not there.
Speaker 2 (19:53):
You go, let's see supermarket seem says Jim Irsay made
all his daughter's work in every level of.
Speaker 1 (20:00):
The colts c U L T.
Speaker 2 (20:03):
S He says, is that a cult organization from janitor
and concession clerk all the way up to the front office,
just like his father made him do in order to
be part of the colts. A fat chance he had
his daughter's scrubbing toilet, so probably not.
Speaker 1 (20:18):
Probably not.
Speaker 2 (20:18):
All right, let's go to the phone. We did have
a guy with the golden ticketm but he hung up.
So let's say hello to e Dog who's in New York.
What's going on? Dog on Long Island?

Speaker 5 (22:19):

the refrigerator, it was his sister who went underfeeder for
Quinipiac College in Tennis. So Joe, my friend Joe goes
to me, Oh, Eric.
Speaker 6 (22:32):
My money is on you.
Speaker 5 (22:33):
Maybe my money is on you. And also when I
went next door, I went next door to see Joe
and his mother was home by herself, and she goes,
come on in and she and then she said sit down.
So I sat down.
Speaker 6 (22:46):
And then she's like, oh, you gotta leave.

Speaker 7 (25:22):
What I have come up with? The perfect malard Militia maspop.
Speaker 6 (25:28):
Okay, Frank.
Speaker 7 (25:32):
Was a jockey and uh it's June third, nineteen twenty
three at Belmont. He won a race and he died.
He crossed the finish line as the winner.
Speaker 6 (25:46):
Now, then that's spectacular.
Speaker 7 (25:50):
I don't think that feat will ever happen again, never again.
Speaker 1 (25:54):
Yeah, Well, the thing like that, And I've heard I
don't know the name.
Speaker 2 (25:58):
I've heard the story of the jockey the horse one
without the jockey because the jockey died and in the race.
Speaker 1 (26:05):
I don't know the name.
Speaker 2 (26:06):
But here's the thing I mean that can only be matched,
that can't you can't break. That's an unbreakable record. You
can tie the record, but no one's gonna die. Well,
I say, no one's gonna die twice. But then we
had Holiday who did die twice. He had two heart
attacks and you had to be brought back twice. But
generally speaking, if you're a jockey and you die at
the second quarter part, you're you're not gonna Yeah, that's it.
Speaker 1 (26:29):
You can. Yeah.
Speaker 7 (26:30):
What the mascot for the militia is actually the horse
sweet Kiss, because I believe you know, when you see
all those other jockeys looking at that horse's ass and
love him, I mean, that's just that's just the best.
I'm gonna put that on the ring. It's gonna have
(26:52):
a number one with a horse's ass everywhere.

It is the Ben Mahler Show. And straight ahead, we
are going to have Mallor to the third degree. But first,
here's the instant trivia. Blank is the only player to
lead his team and hits doubles, home runs, runs scored, RBIs,
and stolen bases through sixty five team games in a

other MLB player has done it more than once. Again,
Blank the only player to lead his team and hits doubles,
home runs, run scored rbies and stolen bases through sixty
five team games in a season, do it three times
in his career. No one else in baseball history and
(34:55):
live ball era has done it more than one time.
That is the instant ah trivia. The answer, and we
will get to Mallard of the third degree, and we
will do it next.

the third degree. But here's the Insta trivia. Blank is
the old only player to lead his team and hits doubles,
(36:02):
home runs, run scored RBIs, and stolen bases through sixty
five team games. In a season three times in his career.
No other MLB player has done that more than once
in the live ball era. That's since nineteen twenty, so
one hundred and twenty five years of baseball.
Speaker 1 (36:20):
That is the question. What is the answer.
Speaker 2 (36:24):
Scrooge is going with the iconic San Diego Chicken, which
was originally a radio mascot in San Diego.
Speaker 1 (36:30):
Ferg dog is. I think he's out on vacation tonight.

He's going with Emilio Estevez yet again, he's given up
mister irrigation, says the sweet Kiss Mala Militia mascot. A
horses took us. Jim Ers from Femi, the number one
uber each driver Downtown, Freddie Brown from Shane in Des Moines,
Lawrence Welk from Milkman Mike in Colorado, Eric Lindros from
(36:56):

Mason and Huntington Beach. All right, do you have an answer?
Speaker 1 (37:13):
Please? Lorena? Yes, I'm gonna go with Greg Maddox.
Speaker 2 (37:17):
Bet Greg Maddocks, all right, by big, prolific home run
hitter back and they a lot of doubles, a lot
of RBIs no, The correct answer is Jose Ramirez of
the Cleveland formerly known Indians, butnagas.
Speaker 1 (37:27):

Speaker 8 (37:42):
WWE superstar Seth Rollins has some hot NFL takes and
a recent podcast appearance, Rolin says that he thinks Caleb
Williams will have a better season than Jayden Daniels this year.
He signed better coaching for Williams and a sophomore slump
for Daniels. Now, Ben Williams being better than Daniels might
be ridiculous, but Daniels will have a sophomore slump.
Speaker 2 (38:02):
Well, the team formerly knows the Redskins are gonna be
playing a tougher schedule and all that, So.
Speaker 1 (38:09):
You move your mic. By the way, the issue here
is whether or not they can get back to the
NFC title game. No, I would not think Washington is
getting back to the NFC title game.
Speaker 2 (38:16):
So by that account, they will have a worse season
in year two than he did in year one. I'm
not taking my takes from Seth Ronds. I'm skeptical about
Camble Williams still the lot. There's a lot he's got
to improve in a short amount of time.
Speaker 8 (38:30):
Next, Craig Kimberl made a very brief return to the
Atlanta Braves, being called up Friday and then sent back
down on Saturday. Braves coach Brian Snicker called Kimberle's scoreless
outing lucky. Now, that's not nice. I know it seems
Kimberl's major league career maybe nearing its end. Is he
a Hall of Famer?
Speaker 5 (38:50):
No?
Speaker 1 (38:51):
I mean the issue is the same numbers. He was
a Rookie of the Year.
Speaker 2 (38:54):
He's made a bunch of all start But if you
go by just the pure numbers, yes, he didn't look
like a Hall of Famer, though, I vote no.
Speaker 1 (39:01):
Next.
Speaker 8 (39:01):
Before Kershaw helped lead the Dodgers to a win over
the Cardinals on Sunday, Redbirds attempt to control Kershaw by
showing the three on run home run he gave up

Speaker 1 (39:10):
After the game, Kershaw called it bush league? Was it
bush league?
