Speaker 1 (00:00):
Dingdong.

Speaker 2 (00:01):
It's our number three talking foot ball Here an hour
number three, The Indianapolis Colts are trying to extend quarterback
Daniel Jones contract.

Speaker 1 (00:12):
Does that make sense? Does that make sense? Also?

Speaker 2 (00:16):
How do you decode the Cleveland Brown coaches giving an
evasive answer about the status of Shedur Sanders and when
he will play, if he will play. Also, we have
a transactional move in the NFL. Veteran longtime Seahawk wide
receiver Tyler Lockett was fired by Tennessee. He's now joined
the Raiders. What does Tyler Lockett bring to Pete Carroll's Raiders.

(00:39):
We'll talk about that and more here. It is our
number three. If the horse shoe fits, you gotta pay
the guy. What welcome In the beginning of another hour
of the Ben Mahler Show. We are in the air

(00:59):
a everywhere.

Speaker 1 (01:03):
As we hold a conclave. You and I let me
tell you something.

Speaker 2 (01:07):
We have the freshest takes every single time Pipe and
Hot doesn't get any fresher coast to coast, border, the
border and beyond on the vast and immeasurably powerful microphones
of fsre ammnating live from the War The War of
words from the world famous Fox Sports radio studios, which

(01:33):
are made.

Speaker 1 (01:33):
Possible in part by our friends at ti Iraq.

Speaker 2 (01:35):
For over forty years, ti Iraq has been helping customers
like mister nice Guy and our friends in Minnesota, including
the aforementioned hollering games, help them find the right tires

back by free road hazard protection with convenient installation options

(01:58):

that tire buying should be. This portion of Ben Malae

So the big story here is the baseball. We'll talk
about that in a minute. We'll get into a little
bit longer. The game went eighteen innings. We were an

(02:39):
hour in to the Ben Malaso. You know how often
we get a live sporting event. Something has to go
terribly wrong for us to be on the radio when
there's a live sporting event. NBA game goes triple overtime,
a baseball game goes eighteen innings, eighteen innings, and Freddie
Freeman into the night eighteen inning Freddie Freeman walk off

(03:01):
home run as the Dodgers have won Game three of
the World Series and so they're up two games to one.
And the twenty eighteen eighteen inning game I was at
that game lasted seven hours and twenty minutes. The twenty
twenty five version, which just ended about an hour ago,
lasted six hours and thirty nine minutes. So that means

(03:23):
the game I was at lasted longer. So no, no, no, no,
no no.

Speaker 1 (03:28):
I was at the longer game.

Speaker 2 (03:29):
In your face, you and your little six hour and
thirty nine minute little baseball game, I was at the
seven hour, twenty minute game. Get back to me, Get
back to me when you cross the seven hour mark.
So anyway, the most improbable thing not sho hail tany
reaching base nine times. No, the most improbable thing was

(03:50):
the Dodger bullpen allowing one run over was eleven innings.
Holy crap, The Blue Jay should be eliminated, eliminated from
the postseason, from the World Series. Playing like that against
the Dodger bullpen, My god, horrible. Anyway, that's not the lead.
A lead this hour is from Indianapolis. We are now

(04:14):
eight weeks in the last game was played on Monday
Night for Week eight. Cansas City tied at halftime, took
a can of whoop pass and sprayed it all over
the Commanders in the second half. But the story here
is the team that is currently pacing the big bad NFL.
If you look at your NFL standings, and you've got

(04:36):
your division standings, you've got your conference standings, if you
look at the overall big board, there is one team
that is seven and one, and that team is the
Indianapolis Colts. The Horseshoes are leading the entire NFL in
wins and losses, wins and blankety blank losses. As we
now are done with eight weeks of football, and they

(04:59):
are dreaming big in Indianapolis. Now what are they dreaming of?
If you have not heard, maybe not, we have learned
that the Colts are feeling so giddy, they're feeling a
little tingle and they would like to sign Daniel Jones. Yes,
that Daniel Jones. Yes, the guy that I've goofed on
for years. They want to pay Daniel Jones a long

(05:22):
term contract. And he's had a big year Indianapolis obviously
playing at a very high level in this NFL season.
So state sponsored NFL media tells us that Indianapolis would
like to keep Daniel Jones well beyond this season. The
Colts are interested in signing him to a long term contract.

(05:43):
They would like to get that done as soon as possible.
That is a good jumping off point. So let us
discuss the question for the esteem panel, the Colts trying
to extend quarterback Daniel Jones contract.

Speaker 1 (06:00):
Does it make sense? Does it make sense?

Speaker 2 (06:03):
So on this one, I've got punk, rock, vegetarian, and bobbleheads,
and we will combine all of these.

Speaker 1 (06:11):
Things together and we are going to.

Speaker 2 (06:13):
Make a nice crying towel for the blue Jay fiance
who seemed to be very upset that their team could
not get it done against the worst bullpen this side
of Jamaica.

Speaker 1 (06:25):
My god. All right, So, first of all, in terms.

Speaker 2 (06:29):
Of the Colts and what they should do professional overnight
talk radio advice, do not fall for the hunting moon phase.
Don't fall for the hunting moon phase. Don't do it.
The Colts want to lock up Indiana Jones. He's got
the cute nickname now used to be called Danny Dimes
and Vanilla Vick.

Speaker 1 (06:48):
Now he's Indiana Jones, and they want to wrap him up.

Speaker 2 (06:52):
And it's like they feel like they've discovered the holy grail.
They've been searching for that quarterback ever since Andrew Luck
quit on the team like a coward right before the season,
and they've been trying to find a quarterback in Indianapolis,
and so they think they finally found the Great Hope
Diamond and they're excited about that. Now I would say

(07:13):
slow your route is what I would say, take a breath.
The word for this is premature, with a capitol peak.
We sell pill for that little premature. It's like proposing,
like you date kind of like fours and fives, and
then you get a ten because she's blind or whatever,
and she dates you like a ten and you're like,
oh my, I'm gonna propose, but I'm not gonna propose

(07:35):
because she's a ten. I'm gonna propose because on the
third date I had the most delicious coconut shrimp appetizer.

Speaker 1 (07:42):
And so that's a sign.

Speaker 2 (07:44):
I saw the sign, and so I'm gonna propose, no,
Daniel Jones, is he playing well?

Speaker 1 (07:48):
I will concede.

Speaker 2 (07:49):
Obviously, what am I dummy? Of course he's playing well.
Now does this continue? That's the question. No one is
denying that in a situation where Daniel Jones has played
all season, he has played a high level of quarterback
in the NFL.

Speaker 1 (08:07):
However, we have a long body of work.

Speaker 2 (08:10):
We have watched Daniel Jones stumblebum version of Daniel Jones
for so many years. It's something that's going to end.
I feel like it's similar to Sam Donald. Sam Donald
last year was really good in Minnesota. All my friends
who are Viking fans were all horny, all excited for
Sam Donald, and sure enough he broke your heart. The

(08:33):
real Sam Donald return at the end of the year,
the no show Sam the final game against the Lions
in the regular season and then a neutral sight playoff
game against the Rams. Sam Donald looked like he'd never
played quarterback before in his life. Now he's playing well
again this year in Seattle, Sam Donald. Some people who
have said, well, the Vikings don't really have a quarterback.
They don't know what they've had with JJ McCarthy, and
so they're like, Okay, should have kept Sam Donald. Well, no,

(08:56):
the Vikers didn't trust him. They got as much out
of him as they could. If I'm the Bolt, I
look at this the same way. I would not rush
to sign Daniel Jones to a big time contract. I
wouldn't do not fall for the magic carpet ride. It's
a cool thing to look at the magic carpet ride
and maybe take it once or twice, but don't fall

(09:17):
for the magic carpet ride. Daniel Jones currently is a
top ten quarterback in the NFL. He is and pigs
are flying. Pigs are flying right now. The offense is humming.
They're doing very well there.

Speaker 1 (09:28):
They're great.

Speaker 2 (09:29):
In fact, I believe they have the number one offense
in the entire NF. Jonathan Taylor is cooking. We talked
about him in Mallard of the Third Degree. He's the
top running back in football. Last year it was Saquon
Barkley and Derreck Henry. This year is Jonathan Taylor. He's
the top guy, and they're drawing up I guess the
parade route down Monument Circle there in Indianapolis. They're all

(09:50):
fired up?

Speaker 1 (09:50):
Why not?

Speaker 2 (09:52):
Regardless at his DNA, my position maintains. I maintained my
position that he still dimes, and I admit I formed
my opinion on Daniel Jones. Once you form an opinion,
it's very tough to change your opinion. And I have
PTSD flashbacks of Daniel Jones attempting to play quarterback at

(10:13):
a high level for the Giants and stinking up the
joint in Jersey and everywhere else the Giants went. And
so it's like you can queue the punk rock classic
the Clashes. I thought the Law and the Law one. Now,
that song not about this, but in many ways it is.
It's the law of small numbers. I fought the Law

(10:37):
and the Law one. And if you look at the
full body of work, you'd say, well, Daniel Jones is
playing well right now, but he's not that good. However,
being stuck in the bubble, you'd say, oh, man, he's great.
But that's the fallacy of insufficient sample size.

Speaker 1 (10:55):
You don't have enough to go on.

Speaker 2 (10:57):
And so the law of small numbers we have seen, guys,
flash Sam Donald last year we saw to a tongue
of I low in Miami. They gave him big money
and they've regretted it ever since they signed the contract.
Trevor Lawrence is a stiff in Jacksonville. Brock Purty's turning
out to be a bust in the Bay Area. So

(11:17):
it happens every year. Sometimes it happens twice a year.
And it doesn't mean that you hand Daniel Jones a
blank check and you say here you go da da yeah.
No again, I go back to my statement, the honey
moon face. Do not fall for the honey moon face,
the puppy dog eyes. Everyone loves the puppy dog guys

(11:39):
playing foot seat under the table. All that stuff's cool
and it's a lot of fun and you look forward
to it. However, this is the point where the smart
teams hold the line. The cougars are coming the cougar.
That's a commercial, but no, it's an old commercial. You've
gotta hold on here, and don't don't get drunk in

(12:01):
the moment. Don't be drinking the kool aid of the
moment and be a prisoner of the moment. There, Daniel Jones,
is there a dimension in the multiverse where he does
turn out to be an established good player the rest
of his career. Sure he could age well now and
it was all the giants and it was not him
and all that. However, it could also blow up like
bad tattoos. Now, when I was younger, everyone I knew

(12:26):
was getting those the wire fence tattoos, you know I'm
talking about. They're all getting those things, right, Yeah, and
they didn't really age that well. I still have friends
all run into every once in a while, and I
don't normally see them without their shirts on. But every
once in a while though, where like during the summer
though we're shirts they have, like you show.

Speaker 1 (12:44):
Their arms and I'll see it.

Speaker 2 (12:45):
I'm like, oh, yeah, I remember when everyone was getting
those tattoos.

Speaker 1 (12:49):
I remember that. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (12:50):
So either way, right now, I would say, way too soon,
way too soon. And would there be a story where
the culture like we have no plans of trying to
extend Daniel Jones, Like that wouldn't happen either, Like you're
not gonna get that sort now. Secondly, speaking of the
quarterback shuffle, we going out of Cleveland, where Brown's head
coach Kevin Stefanski was asked, what's going on? Do you

(13:12):
have no quarterback Dylan Gabriel sucks. Why will you not
play the other guy? Why will you not start Shouldeur Sanders? Why?

Speaker 1 (13:23):
So, here's what he said. He said quote.

Speaker 2 (13:25):
This is a quote from Kevin Stefanski, head coach of
You're Cleveland Browns. He said, my focus is where we
are right now. That's not my focus. Quotes quote, not question.
How do you decode the Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski

(13:46):
and his evasive answer about Shader Sanders and his playing
status going forward for the Cleveland football team.

Speaker 1 (13:54):
So I did not know this.

Speaker 2 (13:56):
I'm pretty sure I'm right about this based on this answer, Parson,
the words of Kevin Stefanski, I think you'll agree that
even blind Emmett can see that Kevin Stefanski is a vegetarian.
He's serving up a nice word salad. The word what
is the word? The word salad?

Speaker 3 (14:17):
There.

Speaker 2 (14:18):
That's not my focus. That was his quote. That's not
my focused translation. We have done our due diligence, and
we truly believe that Shadur Sanders right now is a bum.

Speaker 1 (14:30):
The guy's a bum, all right.

Speaker 2 (14:32):
However, we don't want to say that part out loud,
so instead we're just gonna not even talk about it.
And there was some Morse code. There was a bit
of Morse code here, dots and dashes, dot dot dot
dot dash Dasher. There were some dotson dashers. If he
thought he, being the coach of the Browns, thought that
Shudeur Sanders could play at a high level and could

(14:52):
turn out to be something good, why would you not
play him Unless there's some kind of grand conspiracy involved
in this. You don't keep a Ferrari, a cherry red
Ferrari in the garage when you're trying to win a
race and you're currently running the race with a broken
down golf cart. That's what the Colts have a quarterback.
Everyone else, not everyone, but teams are trying to play

(15:14):
with a nice cherry red Ferrari, and the Browns are
sending out a broken down golf cart. They're trying to
win the Daytona five hundred in a broken down golf cart,
and its salt.

Speaker 1 (15:25):
In the wound is what it is here.

Speaker 2 (15:28):
Because the Browns are stuck between the hammer and the anvil.
That's what they're stuck with. At quarterback. You have a
bad offense on one side. You've got the third string quarterback,
who's making some noise, who's more of a hashtag than
anything else at this particular point. And as we know,

(15:49):
as we know from dabbling in the matrix, we are
well aware, we are well aware that the whole Shadur
Sanders story, whatever that is, it's definitely not about football.
It's the algorithm, is what it is. Schaudure gets traction. Now,

(16:13):
is that real? A lot of this stuff is fake.
It's the matrix. Is it real?

Speaker 1 (16:17):
Traction? Are there really a lot.

Speaker 2 (16:19):
Of Shudur Sanders fans out there? Are these all just
bought accounts and dummy accounts and all that stuff. Well,
only a few people know the answer to that. But
we do know that if you're a media member and
you want to make money and you want to monetize,
you have to get traction on social media. You have
to do it. You have to play that game. So
it's engagement farming, it's absolutely part of it. People aren't

(16:40):
asking about Shudur Sanders because he's great in practice, not
a game.

Speaker 1 (16:47):
Not a game.

Speaker 2 (16:47):
We' here talking about practice. They're asking because he gets clicks,
He trends well on social media. And if Stefanski thought again,
if the coach thought the guy was good. He said,
the fancy's a boob. Okay, fine, the guys at Dingleberry.
That doesn't change the point in theory. Again, we have
to approach these things like they're on the up and

(17:08):
up and not professional wrestling. That if the coach thinks
the player is not a real solution and is not
ready to play, and his immature and all that stuff, okay,
then they wouldn't play him. If the Browns, I do
know this, whoever's playing quarterback, the Browns are filled with constipation.
They are really clogged up there. They've got hemorrhoids. It's

(17:29):
a mess. All right, final thought, quick, right, we go
to Vegas, the high speed sports wire blowing up the Raiders.
The Raiders adding wide receiver Tyler Lockett. Yeah, that guy,
he used to be good. Of course, we all used
to be good. At one point, Las Vegas announcing they
had signed Lockett off the waiver wire, the transaction wire.

(17:49):
He was fired by the Tennessee Titans. So reunited and
it feels so good with Pete Carroll and quarterback Gino Smith.
The band is back to get from those mediocre Seattle
football teams. Question, what if anything what if anything, does
Tyler Lockett bring to the Raiders. So this is known

(18:14):
as the power of a friendly face. The power of
a friendly face. Lockett is thirty three. He was dumped
by the worst team in football, the Tennessee Titans, the
NFL's bottom shelf. Okay of the bargain bin, very bottom,
right down there. Pete Carroll's out here playing this is

(18:37):
your life. The Seattle addition, Let's go down memory lane,
not the fast lane, not the slow lane. It's slower
than the slow lane. It's memory lane is where we're
going there. And so someone needs to send Maybe Andrea
can send Pete Carroll a farmer's almanac and let him
know that it's twenty eighteen right now. It is not

(18:58):
or it's twenty twenty five. Eighteen is what I'm trying
to say. It's not twenty eighteen. It's twenty twenty five.
If you had Tyler Lockett seven years ago, you'd be like,
oh man, we're in good shape here.

Speaker 1 (19:08):
This is amazing.

Speaker 4 (19:09):
Now.

Speaker 1 (19:10):
Lockett is not just slowing down, right, it's not just
slowing down.

Speaker 2 (19:14):
He recently provided the lights on but Nobody's Home type
performance with the Tennessee football team So what exactly does
he bring Tyler Lockett?

Speaker 1 (19:26):
What does he bring here?

Speaker 2 (19:27):
So Tyler is like a nice blanky, He's like a nice,
warm blanket for Pete Carroll is what he is. He's
a comfort sighting signing. You know how you have comfort food,
Like you have a bad day at work, or you
get dumped by somebody and you go out and eat
a tray of brownies, or you go get a nice
doughnut with the pink frosting on it, or an apple

(19:48):
of ice apple fritter, a cup of ice cream, bond
bonds or whatever.

Speaker 1 (19:52):
It might be. Maybe you're a cupcake person.

Speaker 2 (19:56):
You do that, you feel better, you know, you get
a little sugar drug in you.

Speaker 1 (19:59):
You're good to go on that way to go. So
that's what it is.

Speaker 2 (20:02):
This is a warm and fuzzy situation for Pete Carroll.
It's all about the comfort. That's what it's about. Pete
Carroll's collecting at this point, he's collecting former Seattle Seahawk
players like their bobbleheads. The one guy he will never
add is Russell Wilson because Russell Wilson tried to get
him fired in Seattle. The dark side of Russell Wilson
if you believe internet legend, and it's fair to say

(20:24):
considering that Pete has had options. He could have signed
Russell Wilson in the offseason, decided to pass, could have
acquired Russell Wilson here be a trade, decided not to
do it. So he's passed on him a couple of
times because Russ tried to get Pete fired. But that's
a different conversation. So you're as far as Lockett. You're
not signing Tyler Lockett because you think he's gonna go

(20:45):
out there and catch seven or eight passes and get
one hundred yards and all that stuff.

Speaker 1 (20:49):
You're signing him because it's sign a friend.

Speaker 2 (20:53):
You know the guy, You trust him, and even though
he's slow and he's getting older by football standards, you
know that he's a way of how to run the
right route or route as Friy Daddy would say.

Speaker 1 (21:05):
And so he's like, hey, listen, the Raiders.

Speaker 2 (21:07):
They get a nice facility over there in Vegas, right,
and Henderson I believe it is. And you go over
there to the Raiders' facility and it's like a retirement
home for old Seahawk players. You got Geno Smith, you
got Pete Carroll, You got Tyler Lockett. There's some other
guys that did time in Seattle that are there now.
Now we got to get Marshawn Lynch. Get him over there.
He loves Vegas. He can give you skittles at halftime.

(21:30):
And Lockett is not exactly moving the needle. All right,
is the Ben Mahlor Show. If you would like to
be part, you can join us right now eight seven,
seven ninety nine on Fox again. Big headline here, the
Dodgers beat the Toronto Blue Jays in Game three of
the World Series. They are two wins away from winning
the entire thing in an eighteen inning game, eighteen inning game,

(21:54):
and the Dodger bullpen does the improbable, the unimaginable. They
had their own shutout now, not the entire bullpen, but
they will explain as we go through the overnight here
what that's all about. We have pushed back ask a
weed man. We pushed that back to the final hour
of the show because the World Series game was going

(22:17):
on and on and on and on and would not
in time now though for the Mallor riddle of the day,
And here's the Mallard riddle of the day. Giants running
back Cam Scataboo received a visit in the hospital from
the Eagles chief of security, Big Dom, who brought a
care package of blank. Again, injured Giants running back Cam

(22:40):
Scataboo received a visit in the hospital from the Eagles
chief of security, the notorious Big Dom, and Big Dom
brought him a care package of blank. That is the
malor riddle of the day. The answer, We'll get to
it and we will do it it.

Lorena is here, so loo to her. Hi, Now we'll
talk to me FSR Tech queen. And also Cooper Loop
at a Bronco fan Wow.

Speaker 1 (24:29):
And now back to the talk.

Speaker 2 (24:33):
I'm actually on the live air.

Speaker 1 (24:35):
No, no, we're on the dead air.

Speaker 2 (24:38):
So this guy Will Clinb no relation to Lee Klein
who I used to do radio with back in the day.

Speaker 1 (24:43):
So Will CLEINB.

Speaker 2 (24:47):
This season didn't pitch all that much, did not get
in that many opportunities to have success with the Dawyers.

Speaker 1 (24:57):
And I guess he made up for that.

Speaker 2 (24:59):
Will Klein who was a drafted by the Canza City
Royals and he has played for the Royals, the Athletics
back when they were in Oakland and now the Doyers.
He appeared in all of fourteen games during the twenty
twenty five season, pitched fifteen in a third innings, which means,

(25:20):
if you do the malor math on that that twenty
percent of Will Klein's pitches during the twenty twenty five
season were just thrown in Game three of the World Series.
And he was marvelous, absolutely great, just wonderful all the
way around. So eighteen inning game, classic Freddie Freeman getting

(25:42):
it done, getting it done here for the Doyers, proving
that that was not a fluke what he did to
the Yankees last year. And Shohil Tani, who has now
played the last two postseason games at Dodger Stadium, that
crazy game against the Brewers and now this game where
he was on base nine times thanks to the general
of the Toronto pitching staff. Otani's last two postseason games

(26:04):
at Chavez Ravine, he's seven for seven with two doubles,
five home runs, six runs batted in, six runs scored,
six walks, and he's also pitched six innings.

Speaker 1 (26:17):
I'm told that's good.

Speaker 2 (26:18):
Let's go to the phones and now with the cosmic
look at what happened, as only she can do because
she's the astrology insider.

Speaker 1 (26:26):
Who is she?

Speaker 2 (26:28):
Our friend Andrea from Berkeley standing by with the low down,
the inside skinny. The planets aligned, Andrea, the planets aligned?

Speaker 7 (26:39):
Yes, how you doing?

Speaker 8 (26:40):
Ben?

Speaker 2 (26:40):
If I was any better, I'd be a jay, but
not a blue jay because they lost.

Speaker 7 (26:44):
Yeah, No, that was amazing. I've seen a lot of
baseball games in my time, and that one that was
just epic. And you know, here's a cosmic coincidence for
you to begin. The game began with a Virgo Tyler
Glass now August twenty third, and ended with a Ago
Freddie Freeman hitting the walk off home run. He's September fifteenth.

Speaker 2 (27:05):
It's Virgo gone wild, Vergo gone wild.

Speaker 7 (27:08):
Right, And just so you know, when you mentioned Pete Carroll,
I looked him up. He's a Virgo too. He said,
to send him a Farmer's Alfman hack.

Speaker 2 (27:16):
Well, yes, because Pete wants to recreate the twenty eighteen,
twenty nineteen twenty twenty, twenty twenty one Seahawks. He wants
to bring those teams back, and the problem is those
guys are all older. Now it's not working out Here's
now this old thing a little bit I know you're
still an AS fan.

Speaker 1 (27:29):
Even though they're not in Oakland anymore.

Speaker 5 (27:31):
Right?

Speaker 2 (27:31):
Will kleinb began the season he went to spring training,
I believe with the Athletics. So I read that correctly
and was traded. Oh, he began the year with property
the Athletics roster. He was traded for international slot money
in that exciting you love that international slide?

Speaker 1 (27:49):
Do you get to play a slot machines with that money?

Speaker 7 (27:51):
What does that mean? Exactly? Like? Not for a lot
of money?

Speaker 2 (27:54):
No, no, no, I I did a slot machine joke.
But what it is is you get money to sign
Internet national players. They cap how much you can spend,
so you're able to trade players and get a little
extra money to pay pay off agents from the Dominican
republican Oh wherever?

Speaker 1 (28:09):
Hey, you wherever they're finding players these days? Who knows?

Speaker 7 (28:12):
Yeah? Well, you and I both know. The A's trading
off their players is nothing new.

Speaker 1 (28:17):
Unfortunately, that is a staple.

Speaker 2 (28:19):
Like the Swallows returned to Capistrano the as near the
trade deadline, unloading players.

Speaker 1 (28:24):
That is all that they do it every year every
year they do.

Speaker 7 (28:27):
Right, and we're hoping who knows when they have a
better stadium in Las Vegas. They'll have more money. Maybe
they won't do that, but.

Speaker 1 (28:33):
Be that as it makes way better.

Speaker 7 (28:35):
Man.

Speaker 2 (28:35):
You can't be putting carrot Top out there in Vegas.
You got to do better than carrat Top, you know
what I'm saying.

Speaker 7 (28:40):
Yes, I too, but really that was just an epic
World Series game. And you know he's a Pisce, he's
not a Virgo. But nice to see you know, Kirk.
Very nice to see him pitch, which might be his
last game or two. So that was.

Speaker 2 (29:01):
I beg to disagree on that one, but that's fine. Listen, Andrew,
get some sleep. Yes, all right, we thank you and
you're on. Good to have you back a couple of
times this week already. It's a good job by you
on X at Virgo in service at Virgo and Service.
Thank you so much, a lovely lady. My apologies too.

Speaker 1 (29:19):
Let's go do.

Speaker 2 (29:20):
Mike the Leprechaun in Boston, Hello, Mike the Leprechaun.

Speaker 4 (29:24):
You could tell Andrea I'm an intense scorpion scorpio.

Speaker 1 (29:27):
Sorry, yes, you are a scorpion.

Speaker 4 (29:33):
When you're the guy on the highway yesterday going two
hundred plus miles on the motorbike. Did you see that?

Speaker 1 (29:38):
Well, didn't that guy get smashed? And that's it?

Speaker 5 (29:40):
Is that.

Speaker 4 (29:42):
Of the car?

Speaker 1 (29:43):
Well, yes, that's usually what happens when you go two
hundred miles.

Speaker 9 (29:46):
Actually, what I saw was an off duty officer was
the one who rammed him into the side.

Speaker 2 (29:50):
Oh really, okay, yeah, that was it though, Right, that's
a game.

Speaker 4 (29:54):
Going to the game.

those this week. Right, we had the guy on the
one all was it one ten? And I decided to
get out, that's right?

Speaker 9 (30:03):
And then he hopped the border right into an oncoming car.

Speaker 1 (30:06):
I don't say they call it the border.

Speaker 9 (30:08):
I don't know the median. Sorry, he hopped the media.
It was the border to the other.

Speaker 4 (30:13):
Side, into the ditch, into the ditch.

Speaker 9 (30:16):
No, he wished he went into the ditch. He would
be alive.

Speaker 2 (30:19):
That move on the motorcycle that works on the video game, right,
but not in real life. Apparently that that move does
work on the video game. But not interesting.

Speaker 4 (30:28):
But then I went to the concert. I went to
the hard part before. You can't believe how many people
know your.

Speaker 1 (30:35):

and anyway, so that we got talking. Even the cop,
I was setting up a cop on the inside.
