Speaker 1 (00:00):
Here we go.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
Welcome, it's our number three, our number three, and we
head to Georgia where the Falcons say they are comfortable
moving forward with forty million dollars back up Kirk Cousins
behind Michael Pennix Junior next season.
Speaker 1 (00:17):
How do you catalog this one?
Speaker 3 (00:20):
Also, the Raiders are whacking GM Tom to LESCo. That
is blank. The Raiders' decision to get rid of Tom
Telesco is blank. Also where you at on former Jets
coach Robert Salah drawing lots of interest in the coaching marketplace.
Speaker 1 (00:39):
We'll go there as well.
Speaker 3 (00:40):
All of it right now here it is make way
for our number three. You think I'm worried about that money,
I'm not worried about that money.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
Well come in.
Speaker 3 (00:52):
The beginning of another hours we tumble over.
Speaker 1 (00:58):
We are in the air everywhere.
Speaker 3 (01:01):
Cheek the cheek, as we are your pit stop for
reliable sports talk coast to coast, border to mortar and
beyond on the vast and majestically powerful microphones of FSR,
ambinating live from the sauce this sauce isle.

fact that ti rak has ten thousand.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
Recommended in stars. Big fan of that. So our lead
this hour is.
Speaker 3 (02:03):
From well, that would be from below the Mason Dixon
Line as we get ready for the playoffs this weekend.
A team that had a chance to get into the
playoffs but choked at the very end. That would be
the Atlanta Falcons, and they're making news here. They failed
to get an invite to the invitation only party. The
(02:25):
business was not taken care of, so Atlanta's on the
naughty list and now they're making some headlines. You didn't
hear about this, perhaps not the GM in Georgia. Terry Fonto, well,
he said that the Falcons are all in on Kirk Cousins.
Just to approve I'm not making this up. Let's go
(02:45):
to the audio tape.
Speaker 4 (02:47):
We're very comfortable moving forward with him as a backup.
He's handled himself extremely well through the entire process, from start.
Speaker 1 (02:54):
To finish, from when he came in the building.
Speaker 4 (02:56):
And you know, in these adverse situations, that's when you
show your true character. Kirks great man, and he's been
great support for my great teammate, great support for everybody
in the building. So we're very comfortable moving forward with
him as the backup.
Speaker 3 (03:09):
Okay, So that's Serry final, very comfortable, he said of
Cousins being the backup to Michael Pennex Junior, who will
be heading into his sophomore season. So let us discuss
as you just heard. That is the GM of the
falcon Sterry Fonto saying he's comfortable moving forward with Kirk
Cousins as the backup behind Michael Pennex Junior next season.
(03:33):
How do you catalog this one? How do you catalog
this one? So I have Masquerade Ball, Picture Perfect, and
shaw Day and we will combine all of these things
together and we will say hello friends. All right, So
first of all, you take this with a pinch of salt.
(03:55):
You gotta remember now we are here every day. We
do the show today, so we have talk radio to
do right now. I gotta worry about this hour of
the show.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
This moment.
Speaker 3 (04:04):
This is the most important moment of the show that
we are going to do until the next moment of
the show, and then that'll be more important.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
But in this moment in time, we're talking about this.
But we understand. We look at the calendar here, it's.
Speaker 3 (04:18):
January right early, kind of early mid January twenty twenty five,
if you look at the date on your smartphone. This
is the first chapter in a long, long novel. The offseason.
We have a lot of pages to turn, the books
all bound up, a lot of pages to turn before
this is all decided. Now, I maintain the smart money,
(04:40):
and I always go where the smart money is. Now
you go with the dumb money. I go with the
smart man. So the smart money, says the Falcons GM.
Terry Fontina is dancing at the masquerade ball right.
Speaker 1 (04:51):
He's posturing to.
Speaker 3 (04:53):
Trade Kirk Cousins before the middle of March. There's a
point of demarcation. The Atlanta football team must cut Kirk
Cousins before March seventeenth, or they have to write one
of those oversized cartoon checks, which our friend Alf the
alien ol Pinter loves so much, for ten million dollars.
So why would you cut a check for ten million
(05:15):
dollars to your backup quarterback. You wouldn't do that. So
let's call the spade a spade. The fact that the
GM said, hey, you know, we're comfortable, Well, you can
also be comfortable saying bye bye, bye bye to Kirk Cousins, right,
you could be comfortable with that. If Atlanta traded him,
the team would be on the hook for like thirty
(05:38):
seven and a half million, thirty seven and a half
million dollars. But Cousin's going to side where he ends
up because he's got a no trade clause. If they
trade him, they got to pay thirty seven and a
half million, but that's less than the other scenarios, and
the team that acquires him will have to pay Cousins
twenty seven and a half million dollars.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
So either way, the.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
One that is fat and happy, the one smiling from
ear to ear, is Kirk Cousins. He's the one that
wins this, and he's got the money. He's got the
money right now. Secondly, we head to Lost Wages, Nevada,
where the gambling is good and the football is bad.
The Raiders have fired GM. Tom Telesco. Bye Bye, Tom,
(06:26):
Telesco is out after only one season at the Helm,
one year as the GM of the Raiders, the move
coming just a couple of days after the Raiders excommunicated
the man that was bred and born to be a Raider,
Antonio Pierce, who loved the Raiders more than anything, after
his first full season as the coach. So the GM
(06:49):
the big kahuna the Raiders front office. There, let's talk
about this.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
The Raiders are.
Speaker 3 (06:52):
Whacking Tom te LESCo. That is blank, Phil in the blank?
Is the the Raiders whacking GM. Tom Telesco is blank?
So I have picture perfect is what I have?
Speaker 1 (07:07):
Right?
Speaker 3 (07:08):
Hit the bulls eye. If you fire the coach, you
fire the GM. They are tied together at the hip.
Speaker 1 (07:18):
Now. We questioned the Raiders.
Speaker 3 (07:19):
The other day when they got rid of Antonio Peers
because they kept Tom Tellsco.
Speaker 1 (07:24):
So this is the right move. T LESCo did a.
Speaker 3 (07:25):
Poor job in building the roster through veteran NFL players.
He put together a roster that belonged in a toilet
and then was surprised when it didn't work out, setting
up Antonio Piers to fail and really setting himself up
to fail as well. There was this approach by Telesco.
(07:46):
I guess he is obtuse because he acted like he
had five years to build up the franchise.
Speaker 1 (07:53):
La la la la la La La La La La
la La twiddle my thumbs.
Speaker 3 (07:57):
When the NFL has always been a not for long situation.
You got to get her done right. If you don't
get her done right away, that's it the acronym not
for long. And so there was no sense of urgency,
like we got to.
Speaker 1 (08:10):
Be competitive, none of that.
Speaker 3 (08:12):
The only thing that he got right was the first
round traff pick, the parting gift that will last many
years after Tom Pelesko's out of the NFL and he's
selling insurance or real estate or cars. The parting gift
are working for Hedge Fund. The Raiders were given the
tight end brock Bowers. Now, brock Bowers is a total stud.
(08:35):
He's already a top five tight end in the NFL.
Some of those numbers are empty numbers because he played
on a bad Raider team. But brock Bowers is a
stud and figures to be a top level tight end
by the time the Raiders are good, if they.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
Can ever get good again. And the Raiders over.
Speaker 3 (08:54):
The last generation have the most coaches, and I think
the most losses right now.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
Final fall.
Speaker 3 (09:02):
We now head to the Bay Area where the forty nine.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
Ers making some news here.
Speaker 3 (09:08):
As we pushed forward, the Niners interviewed Robert Salah. Yeah,
that's the same Robert Sala that was the coach of
the Jets. Suck, suck, suck, and always seemed happy as
a clam while the Jets were losing. So Robert Salap
interviewed for the defensive coordinator position.
Speaker 1 (09:27):
That is a job he had.
Speaker 3 (09:28):
He led the Niners defense from twenty seventeen to twenty twenty.
He might remember because every NFL broadcast that did a
forty nine Er game smothered Robert Sala with love. They
loved his gyrations on the sideline. They couldn't get enough
of Robert Sala future coach. So he finally got a
job with the Jets and was whacked as coach of
the Jets, got off to a two and three start,
(09:49):
fired back in October. So we are also hearing that
not only are the Niners interested, but Robert Sala is
getting some head coaching interest from the Raiders and the Jaguars,
making you think the NFL is just a pyramid scheme
for these coaches. So where are you at on former
Jets coach, Former Jets coach Robert Salah draw interest, okay,
(10:13):
drawing interest from multiple NFL teams all over the coaching marketplace,
from Seed to Shining Sea. It is the word is befuddling,
another word bewildering under any reasonable, any reasonable measurement.
Speaker 1 (10:31):
Robert Salah was a failure with the Jets. He was now.
He talked to.
Speaker 5 (10:37):
Talk talk Talk Talk Talk Talk Talk Talk Talk Talk
Talk twalk. He talked to talk, he did. The problem
was he was unable to walk the walk right. He
talked that he can walk it. And if you look
at Robert Salam, what is he like as a coach?
Speaker 1 (10:54):
What is he like? He must be a big fan
of shah Day because he is a smooth operator.
Speaker 3 (11:02):
Is what He talked to talk and all that, and
again he couldn't get any He's charismatic, he's charming.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
He's the kind of guy I would hire in.
Speaker 3 (11:12):
A minute as a keynote speaker at one of those
airport motivational get rich quick scam seminars. I would hire
him right away, right away, because Robert Salad, he would
go back to his happy place of giving cute quotes
and all that. And I think he should just go
back to the Niners because that's also his happy place
(11:34):
because he can hide as the defensive coordinator and Shanahan
will pump him up and say how.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
Great he is. And then eventually the Niners will get
good again.
Speaker 3 (11:42):
Well maybe not because of Rock Purty, but eventually, at
some point they'll be good again. And then Robert Salad
will go back to the very top. They'll say it's
not his fault, it's the Jets, not his fault. He's
you know, the team was better with the Jets. It's
always the Jets. Yeah, blah blah blah blah. Al Right,
It is the.

Mallard riddle of the day. Okay, here it is the

Speaker 1 (15:48):
Ragtag Bill Miller.
Speaker 3 (15:51):
Let me point out though, behind the scenes here, behind
the making of the live radio program, behind the making
of the live radio program, as you attend to answer
the malar riddle of the day, So there's pie being consumed. Me,
I'm fasting, of course, I don't eat over and I
eat once a day because I'm a loser.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
That's what I did. I ate like ten meals a
day for many, many years. So I feel like even.
Speaker 3 (16:14):
By only eating one meal a day, I'm still not
gonna Maybe I'll come out even in the end, but
probably not.
Speaker 1 (16:19):
Because I ate so much when I was younger.
Speaker 3 (16:22):
But Lorena, there was a delicious pie here. What kind
of pie were you you and Coop munching on there?
Speaker 1 (16:29):
What kind of pie was that? Lorena?
Speaker 8 (16:31):
It was a pecan pie.
Speaker 1 (16:33):
Pecan pie, pecan pi?
Speaker 3 (16:34):
And was this a gift from a listener of this
pecan pie from Parito.
Speaker 1 (16:39):
Well, thank you, Purito. Very kind of you to.
Speaker 8 (16:41):
Send say Purrito and I say Barrito.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
Now I say Purrito. But thank you Purito for sending
that in. I appreciate that.
Speaker 3 (16:48):
Very kind of you to do that thinking of us
with pecan pieh Also.
Speaker 8 (16:52):
Those candy pecans and the chocolate pecans.
Speaker 3 (16:55):
See I like the candy pecan so you are to
save some of those of the side.
Speaker 8 (16:58):
And I'm crying Ben, I'm I'm trying, Lorena.
Speaker 1 (17:01):
I'm trying, Lorena. Yeah, save a.
Speaker 3 (17:04):
Little, save some, don't and not. When I say some,
I'm not. I'm not talking one or two. I'm not
talking one or two. I want a fair amount. I
want I would like a fair amount.
Speaker 1 (17:14):
I need to put them away. Oh yeah, you do,
you do so, uh we're gonna pay off the mallet
real here. But this is I'm not. I don't do this.
Speaker 3 (17:23):
You know, Terry in England knows I don't do this,
and Alf knows that, and Ferg dog. I would never
do a list ever, never ever do a list, but
I will do big Ben's big board so big Ben's
big boarder pies Big Ben's big Boarder pies.
Speaker 1 (17:37):
And if if you look at the big board here,
there's a graphic.
Speaker 3 (17:40):
You look at the audio strader, not a tellustrator because
we're on radio, and an audio strader.
Speaker 1 (17:44):
So if you look at the big board here, and
it's really just the top three.
Speaker 3 (17:48):
And I have apple Pie as my number three, not
my number two, not my number one. I have apple
Pie as my my number three, number two. Two is
the pecan Pie. The Pecan Pie is my new that's
a change. The Pecan Pi a couple of years ago,
not even on the list, but now they're number two
(18:10):
and number one number is anything?
Speaker 1 (18:16):
All right over there, jump the gun. You got fat fingers?
You don't have fat fingers. That's something fun about it.
Speaker 9 (18:21):
Was actually just really curious about what your previous number
two was.
Speaker 3 (18:26):
Well, but before it was Apple, Apple was number two.
Now it's number three, so Apple's gone.
Speaker 10 (18:31):
He had, you know, a number three, so naturally before
pecan Pie that would have been.
Speaker 8 (18:37):
Oh, so then what was your previous number three?
Speaker 3 (18:40):
Yeah, understands how this game works. Lorraine is a little
slow on how how the game game actually works.
Speaker 1 (18:50):
Lemon Moraine, Lemon Moraine, top of those. Yeah, it's very good.
I don't need it very often.
Speaker 3 (18:58):
But the new number is number one, still number one,
number one. That would be the king of all pies.
Banana cream pie. Yeah, that's my big board, not a list.
Do you have a big board? Do you have Loraina's
big board?
Speaker 1 (19:11):
A pie?
Speaker 9 (19:13):
Yeah, I guess I have my favorite pies. Banana cream pie.
It has always been my number one.
Speaker 3 (19:18):
It's every anyone that doesn't anyone that understands the greatness
of Plye would say banana cream is the greatest pie.
If you have proper banana cream pie, it's the greatest pie.
Speaker 5 (19:27):
Right.
Speaker 9 (19:27):
Also, I'm a big fan of cherry pie, and I
know it's disgusting because it's usually like pre made cherries
and there. Yeah, but no, I love cherry pie. And
I also like sweet potato pie.
Speaker 1 (19:42):
Your list sucks. The first one's good.
Speaker 3 (19:44):
Coop quickly big Coop's big board to pie, big board
a pie from Cooper Loop.
Speaker 10 (19:48):
So it wasn't until I started working here that banana
cream pie became my number one.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
Sure, so number banana cream.
Speaker 10 (19:57):
Pie is now number one on my list. Uh number two.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
It's tough up. It is a pie.
Speaker 10 (20:07):
It's it's like like I got I got pumpkin and pecan,
like right there, right there, pumpkin.
Speaker 1 (20:15):
But pumpkin is a seasonal pie.
Speaker 10 (20:17):
That's true.
Speaker 1 (20:18):
That is true. So pumpkin is.
Speaker 3 (20:20):
It drops down because it's a seasonal pie. You only
needed a Halloween and Thanksgiving.
Speaker 10 (20:24):
But I would argue that you only have pecan pie
in like the fall and winter.
Speaker 1 (20:28):
Also, I would disagree. I think pecan pie is a pie.
Speaker 3 (20:30):
That you can eat in July, you can eat it
in April, you can eat it anytime you want.
Speaker 1 (20:34):
Pecan pi, it's a beautiful pie.
Speaker 10 (20:36):
I keelon pie as well.
Speaker 1 (20:38):
Ke Pie is a solid pie. I like keon pie.
Speaker 8 (20:42):
Chocolate silk pie is also nah.
Speaker 10 (20:44):
Nah, that's way down on the you.
Speaker 8 (20:46):
Know what, way down, You're way down on my list.
Speaker 1 (20:49):
Oh you want to take out? Take it outside, man.
Speaker 3 (20:54):
Anyway, it is the Ben Malor Show. Let's say hello
to who do we have here? Let's go to I
see Bobby is in Florida. Hello, Bobby, welcome.
Speaker 1 (21:04):
You were on the Mallor Show here on Fox. Hello Bobby,
good morning Ben.
Speaker 11 (21:11):
I know it sounds cliche, but a longtime listener, first
time caller, log.
Speaker 3 (21:15):
Time listener, first time caller, I love it, Bobby, thank you.
Speaker 1 (21:19):
How long are been listening?
Speaker 11 (21:20):
You guys are making me hungry with all that pie talk.
Lorraina's pie sounds delicious. You know. So you mentioned earlier
how the moving of the game kind of torpedoed Benny
versus a Penny this week on Peacock.
Speaker 3 (21:36):
Yes, yes, it destroyed it because we had just I
finished the recording of the show and then we found
out like an hour or two later that they.
Speaker 1 (21:43):
Had moved the game.
Speaker 11 (21:44):
So yeah, what did that do to the line, if
I could ask?
Speaker 3 (21:48):
Yeah, so it didn't move with that much. It depends
on which book you went to with. The Rams were
an underdog at home, they were like a one to
one and a half point underdog. The Vikings favored by
one to one and a half, and I think consensus
now as Minnesota is up to a two and a
half point favorite.
Speaker 1 (22:03):
So it's like a one or one and a half
point move.
Speaker 3 (22:06):
In favor of Minnesota, which I I don't think it's
gonna matter. The crowd's not going to matter there. It
wasn't going to help the Rams in La. It's not
going to hurt the Rams in Arizona. So I think
it's if you like the rams before, you should still
like the Rams.
Speaker 11 (22:21):
Well, to my to my original point, why I called in,
I thought the line would have moved a little bit more,
but it would have been a double slap in the
face for Southern California. I hope all of your family
friends loved ones. Everybody's safe out there. But the NFL,
what's the naming rights for the new stadium? They just
moved to the game too?
Speaker 1 (22:40):
Oh well the corporate name I don't know.
Speaker 3 (22:43):
Yeah, yeah, and they don't they don't pay me, they don't,
I think, yeah, State Farm, they don't, but they don't
pay me.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
Yeah.
Speaker 11 (22:50):
Yeah. So if you go back and look, four to
six months ago, State Farm, one of the largest insurers
in the country, decided they weren't going to issue new
policies to Southern California homeowners because of the fire and
earthquake risk. Then about one or two months after that,
they decided they were just going to start canceling policies
for all those families.
Speaker 1 (23:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 11 (23:08):
So you mentioned at the top of the show that
you got over a billion dollars worth of damage there,
and and the NFL is taking this game, and well
the farmers benefiting from it.
Speaker 3 (23:18):
There is some irony from there is some mind, But
I don't usually mention the corporate names of state.
Speaker 1 (23:23):
I mean I do with so FI because that's what's
known as.
Speaker 3 (23:25):
Nobody knows it by any other name, But I generally
try to avoid that.
Speaker 1 (23:29):
But you bring up a good point.
Speaker 3 (23:30):
I mean you could counter argue that and say the
insurance companies knew better than the politicians in California that
there was a major catastrophe about to happen and they
bailed out, which we can have a different conversation, probably
not here, Bobby, about insurance companies in general, how they
loved it.
Speaker 1 (23:45):
It's kind of like a bookie that loves to take
your money. But then if you win a bet and
you need, you know, the payout, they don't want to
pay out. It's kind of a problem. So yeah, anyway,
all right, thank you, I thank thank you. Guys.
Speaker 3 (23:55):
Of course this is bigger because you're messing with people's life,
their whole life. I'll saleo to Robert in Minneapolis. It
is the ben Malis. You're gonna pay off the mallet
riddle of the day here in a minute. Otherwise Stevie
Meebol will punch me. Yes, yes, what's going.
Speaker 7 (24:10):
On, Robert, I am going. I'm leaving Monday, Monday morning
for Phoenix. My dad's coming up from Yuma and we're
gonna go to the game. There's a lot of Viking fans,
let me tell you, so it makes It's gonna make
a difference. It really will make a difference. I think
(24:30):
moving the game to Phoenix, I mean the last time
they were down there, the Huge Skull Camp. I mean,
it's it's big down there.
Speaker 3 (24:39):
Well, yeah, Robbie, you're gonna be yeah, you will have
There will be more people from Minnesota there than the
Ram fans. But it would have been the same thing
in if the game had been played in LA, there
would have been more Viking fans in LA than there
would have been Ram fans at the game.
Speaker 1 (24:52):
The Rams a.
Speaker 7 (24:53):
Couple of years ago, they were in San Diego when
they were playing at that little stadium and saying in
Lah yeah, Charter, Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (25:03):
No, it's gonna it's gonna be the same.
Speaker 3 (25:04):
The funny about that is, if the NFL really wanted
to help the Rams out, they would have moved the
game to Vegas because that's like a suburb of LA.
But instead they went to Phoenix. So it'll be the
Viking fans. And now, were you planning on going to
l A and or did you change it?
Speaker 1 (25:19):
You want?
Speaker 7 (25:19):
No? No, my parents winter and Uma, so it's only
a three hour drive for my dad. So I told him,
I said, I got tickets. I'm getting tickets if they
move it, and you all you got to do is
drive up.
Speaker 3 (25:30):
So wow, So your your parents now Yuma, Arizona not
a not a vacation destination, right, but they winter down there.
Speaker 1 (25:42):
Interesting of all the there, No, I got it.
Speaker 3 (25:47):
Why did they picked? Why did they pick Yuma though
that's an odd place to pick.
Speaker 7 (25:50):
They were habitu for the first few years of the retirement,
and now that they went down to Yuma one one
winter and they just absolutely love it.
Speaker 1 (25:59):
Huh. That's interesting. I remember that they used.
Speaker 7 (26:01):
To have come back in April.
Speaker 3 (26:04):
The Padres used to have spring training in Yuma and
the players hated it.
Speaker 1 (26:08):
They complained about it. Like Uma. But I haven't been
there in years, but I will enjoy the trip.
Speaker 7 (26:16):
He got an team, and I just I just don't see.
I don't know. I think Sam he's gonna come out
and lay one known.
Speaker 11 (26:25):
I just he's.
Speaker 7 (26:26):
Played well out here. You know he la laid and
again Detroit, But I just I don't see him doing
a two games in a row like this. They lost
the two games in five days against Yeah.
Speaker 1 (26:39):
Well I would listen.
Speaker 3 (26:40):
I would feel the same way if I was making
the trip to Arizona to watch the Vikings play that
there's no way he's going to fall apart. But I've
watched Sam Darnold since he was in college, and this
guy poops his pants in every big moment, so I
would be stunned if he plays well.
Speaker 1 (26:53):
So but maybe I'll be wrong. All right, Thank you,
enjoy your trip to Arizona. Enjoyed the game.
Speaker 3 (26:58):
I'll see TV there, Robert, I'll be I'll be watching,
be checking it out. Let's say, hello, I think helmet

You know.

I was, uh Penn State game, man, that was a
great ending, Well it was.

to Arizona.
Speaker 7 (30:31):
So what if they change their mind?
Speaker 3 (30:45):

Thank you weed Man with that lame Jokes of the

Here we go.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
Welcome, it's our number three, our number three, and we
head to Georgia where the Falcons say they are comfortable
moving forward with forty million dollars back up Kirk Cousins
behind Michael Pennix Junior next season.
Speaker 1 (00:17):
How do you catalog this one?
Speaker 3 (00:20):
Also, the Raiders are whacking GM Tom to LESCo. That
is blank. The Raiders' decision to get rid of Tom
Telesco is blank. Also where you at on former Jets
coach Robert Salah drawing lots of interest in the coaching marketplace.
Speaker 1 (00:39):
We'll go there as well.
Speaker 3 (00:40):
All of it right now here it is make way
for our number three. You think I'm worried about that money,
I'm not worried about that money.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
Well come in.
Speaker 3 (00:52):
The beginning of another hours we tumble over.
Speaker 1 (00:58):
We are in the air everywhere.
Speaker 3 (01:01):
Cheek the cheek, as we are your pit stop for
reliable sports talk coast to coast, border to mortar and
beyond on the vast and majestically powerful microphones of FSR,
ambinating live from the sauce this sauce isle.

Speaker 3 (01:48):
B And we know that I forty ian enjoys the
fact that ti rak has ten thousand.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
Recommended in stars. Big fan of that. So our lead
this hour is.
Speaker 3 (02:03):
From well, that would be from below the Mason Dixon
Line as we get ready for the playoffs this weekend.
A team that had a chance to get into the
playoffs but choked at the very end. That would be
the Atlanta Falcons, and they're making news here. They failed
to get an invite to the invitation only party. The
(02:25):
business was not taken care of, so Atlanta's on the
naughty list and now they're making some headlines. You didn't
hear about this, perhaps not the GM in Georgia. Terry Fonto, well,
he said that the Falcons are all in on Kirk Cousins.
Just to approve I'm not making this up. Let's go
(02:45):
to the audio tape.
Speaker 4 (02:47):
We're very comfortable moving forward with him as a backup.
He's handled himself extremely well through the entire process, from start.
Speaker 1 (02:54):
To finish, from when he came in the building.
Speaker 4 (02:56):
And you know, in these adverse situations, that's when you
show your true character. Kirks great man, and he's been
great support for my great teammate, great support for everybody
in the building. So we're very comfortable moving forward with
him as the backup.
Speaker 3 (03:09):
Okay, So that's Serry final, very comfortable, he said of
Cousins being the backup to Michael Pennex Junior, who will
be heading into his sophomore season. So let us discuss
as you just heard. That is the GM of the
falcon Sterry Fonto saying he's comfortable moving forward with Kirk
Cousins as the backup behind Michael Pennex Junior next season.
(03:33):
How do you catalog this one? How do you catalog
this one? So I have Masquerade Ball, Picture Perfect, and
shaw Day and we will combine all of these things
together and we will say hello friends. All right, So
first of all, you take this with a pinch of salt.
(03:55):
You gotta remember now we are here every day. We
do the show today, so we have talk radio to
do right now. I gotta worry about this hour of
the show.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
This moment.
Speaker 3 (04:04):
This is the most important moment of the show that
we are going to do until the next moment of
the show, and then that'll be more important.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
But in this moment in time, we're talking about this.
But we understand. We look at the calendar here, it's.
Speaker 3 (04:18):
January right early, kind of early mid January twenty twenty five,
if you look at the date on your smartphone. This
is the first chapter in a long, long novel. The offseason.
We have a lot of pages to turn, the books
all bound up, a lot of pages to turn before
this is all decided. Now, I maintain the smart money,
(04:40):
and I always go where the smart money is. Now
you go with the dumb money. I go with the
smart man. So the smart money, says the Falcons GM.
Terry Fontina is dancing at the masquerade ball right.
Speaker 1 (04:51):
He's posturing to.
Speaker 3 (04:53):
Trade Kirk Cousins before the middle of March. There's a
point of demarcation. The Atlanta football team must cut Kirk
Cousins before March seventeenth, or they have to write one
of those oversized cartoon checks, which our friend Alf the
alien ol Pinter loves so much, for ten million dollars.
So why would you cut a check for ten million
(05:15):
dollars to your backup quarterback. You wouldn't do that. So
let's call the spade a spade. The fact that the
GM said, hey, you know, we're comfortable, Well, you can
also be comfortable saying bye bye, bye bye to Kirk Cousins, right,
you could be comfortable with that. If Atlanta traded him,
the team would be on the hook for like thirty
(05:38):
seven and a half million, thirty seven and a half
million dollars. But Cousin's going to side where he ends
up because he's got a no trade clause. If they
trade him, they got to pay thirty seven and a
half million, but that's less than the other scenarios, and
the team that acquires him will have to pay Cousins
twenty seven and a half million dollars.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
So either way, the.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
One that is fat and happy, the one smiling from
ear to ear, is Kirk Cousins. He's the one that
wins this, and he's got the money. He's got the
money right now. Secondly, we head to Lost Wages, Nevada,
where the gambling is good and the football is bad.
The Raiders have fired GM. Tom Telesco. Bye Bye, Tom,
(06:26):
Telesco is out after only one season at the Helm,
one year as the GM of the Raiders, the move
coming just a couple of days after the Raiders excommunicated
the man that was bred and born to be a Raider,
Antonio Pierce, who loved the Raiders more than anything, after
his first full season as the coach. So the GM
(06:49):
the big kahuna the Raiders front office. There, let's talk
about this.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
The Raiders are.
Speaker 3 (06:52):
Whacking Tom te LESCo. That is blank, Phil in the blank?
Is the the Raiders whacking GM. Tom Telesco is blank?
So I have picture perfect is what I have?
Speaker 1 (07:07):
Right?
Speaker 3 (07:08):
Hit the bulls eye. If you fire the coach, you
fire the GM. They are tied together at the hip.
Speaker 1 (07:18):
Now. We questioned the Raiders.
Speaker 3 (07:19):
The other day when they got rid of Antonio Peers
because they kept Tom Tellsco.
Speaker 1 (07:24):
So this is the right move. T LESCo did a.
Speaker 3 (07:25):
Poor job in building the roster through veteran NFL players.
He put together a roster that belonged in a toilet
and then was surprised when it didn't work out, setting
up Antonio Piers to fail and really setting himself up
to fail as well. There was this approach by Telesco.
(07:46):
I guess he is obtuse because he acted like he
had five years to build up the franchise.
Speaker 1 (07:53):
La la la la la La La La La La
la La twiddle my thumbs.
Speaker 3 (07:57):
When the NFL has always been a not for long situation.
You got to get her done right. If you don't
get her done right away, that's it the acronym not
for long. And so there was no sense of urgency,
like we got to.
Speaker 1 (08:10):
Be competitive, none of that.
Speaker 3 (08:12):
The only thing that he got right was the first
round traff pick, the parting gift that will last many
years after Tom Pelesko's out of the NFL and he's
selling insurance or real estate or cars. The parting gift
are working for Hedge Fund. The Raiders were given the
tight end brock Bowers. Now, brock Bowers is a total stud.
(08:35):
He's already a top five tight end in the NFL.
Some of those numbers are empty numbers because he played
on a bad Raider team. But brock Bowers is a
stud and figures to be a top level tight end
by the time the Raiders are good, if they.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
Can ever get good again. And the Raiders over.
Speaker 3 (08:54):
The last generation have the most coaches, and I think
the most losses right now.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
Final fall.
Speaker 3 (09:02):
We now head to the Bay Area where the forty nine.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
Ers making some news here.
Speaker 3 (09:08):
As we pushed forward, the Niners interviewed Robert Salah. Yeah,
that's the same Robert Sala that was the coach of
the Jets. Suck, suck, suck, and always seemed happy as
a clam while the Jets were losing. So Robert Salap
interviewed for the defensive coordinator position.
Speaker 1 (09:27):
That is a job he had.
Speaker 3 (09:28):
He led the Niners defense from twenty seventeen to twenty twenty.
He might remember because every NFL broadcast that did a
forty nine Er game smothered Robert Sala with love. They
loved his gyrations on the sideline. They couldn't get enough
of Robert Sala future coach. So he finally got a
job with the Jets and was whacked as coach of
the Jets, got off to a two and three start,
(09:49):
fired back in October. So we are also hearing that
not only are the Niners interested, but Robert Sala is
getting some head coaching interest from the Raiders and the Jaguars,
making you think the NFL is just a pyramid scheme
for these coaches. So where are you at on former
Jets coach, Former Jets coach Robert Salah draw interest, okay,
(10:13):
drawing interest from multiple NFL teams all over the coaching marketplace,
from Seed to Shining Sea. It is the word is befuddling,
another word bewildering under any reasonable, any reasonable measurement.
Speaker 1 (10:31):
Robert Salah was a failure with the Jets. He was now.
He talked to.
Speaker 5 (10:37):
Talk talk Talk Talk Talk Talk Talk Talk Talk Talk
Talk twalk. He talked to talk, he did. The problem
was he was unable to walk the walk right. He
talked that he can walk it. And if you look
at Robert Salam, what is he like as a coach?
Speaker 1 (10:54):
What is he like? He must be a big fan
of shah Day because he is a smooth operator.
Speaker 3 (11:02):
Is what He talked to talk and all that, and
again he couldn't get any He's charismatic, he's charming.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
He's the kind of guy I would hire in.
Speaker 3 (11:12):
A minute as a keynote speaker at one of those
airport motivational get rich quick scam seminars. I would hire
him right away, right away, because Robert Salad, he would
go back to his happy place of giving cute quotes
and all that. And I think he should just go
back to the Niners because that's also his happy place
(11:34):
because he can hide as the defensive coordinator and Shanahan
will pump him up and say how.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
Great he is. And then eventually the Niners will get
good again.
Speaker 3 (11:42):
Well maybe not because of Rock Purty, but eventually, at
some point they'll be good again. And then Robert Salad
will go back to the very top. They'll say it's
not his fault, it's the Jets, not his fault. He's
you know, the team was better with the Jets. It's
always the Jets. Yeah, blah blah blah blah. Al Right,
It is the.

you're gonna have to answer this very quick and then
I'll give you some time. I'll come back to the
malar riddle of the day later on. So here's the
Mallard riddle of the day. Okay, here it is the
(14:43):
malar riddle of the day. Former NFL punter Sean Landetta
was upset with a Philly radio station because he was
they asked.
Speaker 1 (14:54):
Him about blank. Again. This is the Mallard riddle of
the day.
Speaker 3 (14:58):
Former NFL hunter Sean Landetta was upset a Philly radio
station asked him about blank. That is the Mallor riddle
of the day. You can answer the riddle of the day.
I know some of the boys very upset that they're
annoyed by those whatever.

(15:44):
I hate Bill Miller.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
Ragtag Bill Miller.
Speaker 3 (15:51):
Let me point out though, behind the scenes here, behind
the making of the live radio program, behind the making
of the live radio program, as you attend to answer
the malar riddle of the day, So there's pie being consumed. Me,
I'm fasting, of course, I don't eat over and I
eat once a day because I'm a loser.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
That's what I did. I ate like ten meals a
day for many, many years. So I feel like even.
Speaker 3 (16:14):
By only eating one meal a day, I'm still not
gonna Maybe I'll come out even in the end, but
probably not.
Speaker 1 (16:19):
Because I ate so much when I was younger.
Speaker 3 (16:22):
But Lorena, there was a delicious pie here. What kind
of pie were you you and Coop munching on there?
Speaker 1 (16:29):
What kind of pie was that? Lorena?
Speaker 8 (16:31):
It was a pecan pie.
Speaker 1 (16:33):
Pecan pie, pecan pi?
Speaker 3 (16:34):
And was this a gift from a listener of this
pecan pie from Parito.
Speaker 1 (16:39):
Well, thank you, Purito. Very kind of you to.
Speaker 8 (16:41):
Send say Purrito and I say Barrito.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
Now I say Purrito. But thank you Purito for sending
that in. I appreciate that.
Speaker 3 (16:48):
Very kind of you to do that thinking of us
with pecan pieh Also.
Speaker 8 (16:52):
Those candy pecans and the chocolate pecans.
Speaker 3 (16:55):
See I like the candy pecan so you are to
save some of those of the side.
Speaker 8 (16:58):
And I'm crying Ben, I'm I'm trying, Lorena.
Speaker 1 (17:01):
I'm trying, Lorena. Yeah, save a.
Speaker 3 (17:04):
Little, save some, don't and not. When I say some,
I'm not. I'm not talking one or two. I'm not
talking one or two. I want a fair amount. I
want I would like a fair amount.
Speaker 1 (17:14):
I need to put them away. Oh yeah, you do,
you do so, uh we're gonna pay off the mallet
real here. But this is I'm not. I don't do this.
Speaker 3 (17:23):
You know, Terry in England knows I don't do this,
and Alf knows that, and Ferg dog. I would never
do a list ever, never ever do a list, but
I will do big Ben's big board so big Ben's
big boarder pies Big Ben's big Boarder pies.
Speaker 1 (17:37):
And if if you look at the big board here,
there's a graphic.
Speaker 3 (17:40):
You look at the audio strader, not a tellustrator because
we're on radio, and an audio strader.
Speaker 1 (17:44):
So if you look at the big board here, and
it's really just the top three.
Speaker 3 (17:48):
And I have apple Pie as my number three, not
my number two, not my number one. I have apple
Pie as my my number three, number two. Two is
the pecan Pie. The Pecan Pie is my new that's
a change. The Pecan Pi a couple of years ago,
not even on the list, but now they're number two
(18:10):
and number one number is anything?
Speaker 1 (18:16):
All right over there, jump the gun. You got fat fingers?
You don't have fat fingers. That's something fun about it.
Speaker 9 (18:21):
Was actually just really curious about what your previous number
two was.
Speaker 3 (18:26):
Well, but before it was Apple, Apple was number two.
Now it's number three, so Apple's gone.
Speaker 10 (18:31):
He had, you know, a number three, so naturally before
pecan Pie that would have been.
Speaker 8 (18:37):
Oh, so then what was your previous number three?
Speaker 3 (18:40):
Yeah, understands how this game works. Lorraine is a little
slow on how how the game game actually works.
Speaker 1 (18:50):
Lemon Moraine, Lemon Moraine, top of those. Yeah, it's very good.
I don't need it very often.
Speaker 3 (18:58):
But the new number is number one, still number one,
number one. That would be the king of all pies.
Banana cream pie. Yeah, that's my big board, not a list.
Do you have a big board? Do you have Loraina's
big board?
Speaker 1 (19:11):
A pie?
Speaker 9 (19:13):
Yeah, I guess I have my favorite pies. Banana cream pie.
It has always been my number one.
Speaker 3 (19:18):
It's every anyone that doesn't anyone that understands the greatness
of Plye would say banana cream is the greatest pie.
If you have proper banana cream pie, it's the greatest pie.
Speaker 5 (19:27):
Right.
Speaker 9 (19:27):
Also, I'm a big fan of cherry pie, and I
know it's disgusting because it's usually like pre made cherries
and there. Yeah, but no, I love cherry pie. And
I also like sweet potato pie.
Speaker 1 (19:42):
Your list sucks. The first one's good.
Speaker 3 (19:44):
Coop quickly big Coop's big board to pie, big board
a pie from Cooper Loop.
Speaker 10 (19:48):
So it wasn't until I started working here that banana
cream pie became my number one.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
Sure, so number banana cream.
Speaker 10 (19:57):
Pie is now number one on my list. Uh number two.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
It's tough up. It is a pie.
Speaker 10 (20:07):
It's it's like like I got I got pumpkin and pecan,
like right there, right there, pumpkin.
Speaker 1 (20:15):
But pumpkin is a seasonal pie.
Speaker 10 (20:17):
That's true.
Speaker 1 (20:18):
That is true. So pumpkin is.
Speaker 3 (20:20):
It drops down because it's a seasonal pie. You only
needed a Halloween and Thanksgiving.
Speaker 10 (20:24):
But I would argue that you only have pecan pie
in like the fall and winter.
Speaker 1 (20:28):
Also, I would disagree. I think pecan pie is a pie.
Speaker 3 (20:30):
That you can eat in July, you can eat it
in April, you can eat it anytime you want.
Speaker 1 (20:34):
Pecan pi, it's a beautiful pie.
Speaker 10 (20:36):
I keelon pie as well.
Speaker 1 (20:38):
Ke Pie is a solid pie. I like keon pie.
Speaker 8 (20:42):
Chocolate silk pie is also nah.
Speaker 10 (20:44):
Nah, that's way down on the you.
Speaker 8 (20:46):
Know what, way down, You're way down on my list.
Speaker 1 (20:49):
Oh you want to take out? Take it outside, man.
Speaker 3 (20:54):
Anyway, it is the Ben Malor Show. Let's say hello
to who do we have here? Let's go to I
see Bobby is in Florida. Hello, Bobby, welcome.
Speaker 1 (21:04):
You were on the Mallor Show here on Fox. Hello Bobby,
good morning Ben.
Speaker 11 (21:11):
I know it sounds cliche, but a longtime listener, first
time caller, log.
Speaker 3 (21:15):
Time listener, first time caller, I love it, Bobby, thank you.
Speaker 1 (21:19):
How long are been listening?
Speaker 11 (21:20):
You guys are making me hungry with all that pie talk.
Lorraina's pie sounds delicious. You know. So you mentioned earlier
how the moving of the game kind of torpedoed Benny
versus a Penny this week on Peacock.
Speaker 3 (21:36):
Yes, yes, it destroyed it because we had just I
finished the recording of the show and then we found
out like an hour or two later that they.
Speaker 1 (21:43):
Had moved the game.
Speaker 11 (21:44):
So yeah, what did that do to the line, if
I could ask?
Speaker 3 (21:48):
Yeah, so it didn't move with that much. It depends
on which book you went to with. The Rams were
an underdog at home, they were like a one to
one and a half point underdog. The Vikings favored by
one to one and a half, and I think consensus
now as Minnesota is up to a two and a
half point favorite.
Speaker 1 (22:03):
So it's like a one or one and a half
point move.
Speaker 3 (22:06):
In favor of Minnesota, which I I don't think it's
gonna matter. The crowd's not going to matter there. It
wasn't going to help the Rams in La. It's not
going to hurt the Rams in Arizona. So I think
it's if you like the rams before, you should still
like the Rams.
Speaker 11 (22:21):
Well, to my to my original point, why I called in,
I thought the line would have moved a little bit more,
but it would have been a double slap in the
face for Southern California. I hope all of your family
friends loved ones. Everybody's safe out there. But the NFL,
what's the naming rights for the new stadium? They just
moved to the game too?
Speaker 1 (22:40):
Oh well the corporate name I don't know.
Speaker 3 (22:43):
Yeah, yeah, and they don't they don't pay me, they don't,
I think, yeah, State Farm, they don't, but they don't
pay me.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
Yeah.
Speaker 11 (22:50):
Yeah. So if you go back and look, four to
six months ago, State Farm, one of the largest insurers
in the country, decided they weren't going to issue new
policies to Southern California homeowners because of the fire and
earthquake risk. Then about one or two months after that,
they decided they were just going to start canceling policies
for all those families.
Speaker 1 (23:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 11 (23:08):
So you mentioned at the top of the show that
you got over a billion dollars worth of damage there,
and and the NFL is taking this game, and well
the farmers benefiting from it.
Speaker 3 (23:18):
There is some irony from there is some mind, But
I don't usually mention the corporate names of state.
Speaker 1 (23:23):
I mean I do with so FI because that's what's
known as.
Speaker 3 (23:25):
Nobody knows it by any other name, But I generally
try to avoid that.
Speaker 1 (23:29):
But you bring up a good point.
Speaker 3 (23:30):
I mean you could counter argue that and say the
insurance companies knew better than the politicians in California that
there was a major catastrophe about to happen and they
bailed out, which we can have a different conversation, probably
not here, Bobby, about insurance companies in general, how they
loved it.
Speaker 1 (23:45):
It's kind of like a bookie that loves to take
your money. But then if you win a bet and
you need, you know, the payout, they don't want to
pay out. It's kind of a problem. So yeah, anyway,
all right, thank you, I thank thank you. Guys.
Speaker 3 (23:55):
Of course this is bigger because you're messing with people's life,
their whole life. I'll saleo to Robert in Minneapolis. It
is the ben Malis. You're gonna pay off the mallet
riddle of the day here in a minute. Otherwise Stevie
Meebol will punch me. Yes, yes, what's going.
Speaker 7 (24:10):
On, Robert, I am going. I'm leaving Monday, Monday morning
for Phoenix. My dad's coming up from Yuma and we're
gonna go to the game. There's a lot of Viking fans,
let me tell you, so it makes It's gonna make
a difference. It really will make a difference. I think
(24:30):
moving the game to Phoenix, I mean the last time
they were down there, the Huge Skull Camp. I mean,
it's it's big down there.
Speaker 3 (24:39):
Well, yeah, Robbie, you're gonna be yeah, you will have
There will be more people from Minnesota there than the
Ram fans. But it would have been the same thing
in if the game had been played in LA, there
would have been more Viking fans in LA than there
would have been Ram fans at the game.
Speaker 1 (24:52):
The Rams a.
Speaker 7 (24:53):
Couple of years ago, they were in San Diego when
they were playing at that little stadium and saying in
Lah yeah, Charter, Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (25:03):
No, it's gonna it's gonna be the same.
Speaker 3 (25:04):
The funny about that is, if the NFL really wanted
to help the Rams out, they would have moved the
game to Vegas because that's like a suburb of LA.
But instead they went to Phoenix. So it'll be the
Viking fans. And now, were you planning on going to
l A and or did you change it?
Speaker 1 (25:19):
You want?
Speaker 7 (25:19):
No? No, my parents winter and Uma, so it's only
a three hour drive for my dad. So I told him,
I said, I got tickets. I'm getting tickets if they
move it, and you all you got to do is
drive up.
Speaker 3 (25:30):
So wow, So your your parents now Yuma, Arizona not
a not a vacation destination, right, but they winter down there.
Speaker 1 (25:42):
Interesting of all the there, No, I got it.
Speaker 3 (25:47):
Why did they picked? Why did they pick Yuma though
that's an odd place to pick.
Speaker 7 (25:50):
They were habitu for the first few years of the retirement,
and now that they went down to Yuma one one
winter and they just absolutely love it.
Speaker 1 (25:59):
Huh. That's interesting. I remember that they used.
Speaker 7 (26:01):
To have come back in April.
Speaker 3 (26:04):
The Padres used to have spring training in Yuma and
the players hated it.
Speaker 1 (26:08):
They complained about it. Like Uma. But I haven't been
there in years, but I will enjoy the trip.
Speaker 7 (26:16):
He got an team, and I just I just don't see.
I don't know. I think Sam he's gonna come out
and lay one known.
Speaker 11 (26:25):
I just he's.
Speaker 7 (26:26):
Played well out here. You know he la laid and
again Detroit, But I just I don't see him doing
a two games in a row like this. They lost
the two games in five days against Yeah.
Speaker 1 (26:39):
Well I would listen.
Speaker 3 (26:40):
I would feel the same way if I was making
the trip to Arizona to watch the Vikings play that
there's no way he's going to fall apart. But I've
watched Sam Darnold since he was in college, and this
guy poops his pants in every big moment, so I
would be stunned if he plays well.
Speaker 1 (26:53):
So but maybe I'll be wrong. All right, Thank you,
enjoy your trip to Arizona. Enjoyed the game.
Speaker 3 (26:58):
I'll see TV there, Robert, I'll be I'll be watching,
be checking it out. Let's say, hello, I think helmet
man is called back. Hello helmet Man.
Speaker 6 (27:10):

Former NFL punter Sean Lendetta was upset with a Philly
radio station when he was asked about blank. He was
asked about Blank. Now, some of the answers that we
have here on the Mallord Riddle of the Day. Let's

upset by the lack of stuffed pretzels. That's so I
asked you, helmet man, what is the answer to the
Mallor Riddle of the day. Sean Lendetta upset a Philly

Landetta did some male grooming of his under regions in
the sauna.
Speaker 8 (29:16):
He did, it's a good place as.
Speaker 1 (29:24):
Anyndetta denied it. He said, it's not true.

What's on your mind? How's the OJ trial going? Who's
winning that trial?
Speaker 6 (29:33):

The defense is winning. So you think OJ is going
to get off on that trial? He's not going to
be convicted.

Yeah, he's gonna get off.
Speaker 7 (29:43):
You know.
Speaker 4 (29:44):
I was, uh Penn State game, man, that was a
great ending, Well it was.
Speaker 3 (29:52):
If you had Notre Dame winning the game, it wasn't great.
And if you're a Penn State fan, it sucked. Yeah.
Speaker 9 (29:58):

Speaker 3 (30:00):
Think I gonna be upset.

to Arizona.
Speaker 7 (30:31):
So what if they change their mind?
Speaker 3 (30:45):
All right, well, I that's nobody else has that take,
helmet man. Maybe the NFL will change their mind. But
thank you, helmet man. I I'm gonna hang hang up
on you. Parito says I mispronounced his name, but he
says he has made me an honorary Lincoln Heights home boy.
