Limited commercial interruption here an hour number three. How embarrassing
is it for Dak Prescott and Cede Lamb that they
failed to convince Cooper Cup to play in Dallas even
though they contacted him and gave the recruiting spiel. Also

(00:26):
explain where this Micah Parsons contract extension story with the
Cowboys is headed. And what do you make of an
NFL coach saying that Daniel Jones and the Colts are
a quote perfect match.

Speaker 3 (00:39):
What does that even mean? We'll go there as well.
It's all coming your way right now. Settle in and
enjoy our number three. The pitch was made? And how
did that go? Welcome?

Speaker 2 (00:54):
In the beginning of another hour of The Ben Mahler Show.
We are in the air everywhere, arm in arm as

Speaker 3 (01:46):
I know Danny and Nashville.

Speaker 2 (01:48):
Who's now in Miami, is impressed by that tireraq dot
Com The Way tire Buying show. I'd be so our
lead this hour, it's a story out of Texas. Then
across my radar, I thought this was pretty good. So
our lead is actually kind of in the Dallas metroplex.

Speaker 3 (02:06):
Area there, I guess not kind of it is.

Speaker 2 (02:08):
So the Cowboys have not been providing great content the
sports talk radio this offseason.

Speaker 3 (02:14):
Bad job by Jerry Jones.

Speaker 2 (02:15):
But the Cowboys did make a couple of token moves.
Nothing to get you all Jones up and all excited
this offseason. So Jerry Jones somewhere out deep in the
Atlantic Ocean, Jerry's on his mega yacht cruising around the Atlantic,

(02:36):
and the Dallas Cowboys are stagnant. The roster for the
most part is stagnant. However, we have learned that there
was an effort made by the Cowboys Now what was
the effort Jerry Jones, He sent out some of his
missionaries if you didn't see this, in an effort to

(02:58):
bring a former Super Bowl MVP to the Cowboys.

Speaker 3 (03:03):
Now what is this all about?

Speaker 2 (03:04):
That would be none other than Cooper Cup, who can
no longer ram it all day and ram it all night.
So the story goes like this, A little Birdie trip
trip Trip, Trip trip. A little Birdie says that Dak
Prescott and Cde Lamb played tag, phone tag, text tag,
all of that reached out, reached out together to Cooper

(03:29):
Cup and they were given the motombo.

Speaker 3 (03:33):
They were blocked.

Speaker 2 (03:33):
They were blocked from partaking, and Cooper Cup said, thanks
for contacting me, go pound sand, I'm not going to Texas.
So let us discuss the question for the esteem panel.
How embarrassing is it for Dak Prescott and Cedee Lamb

(03:54):
that they failed They failed to convince Cooper Cupp to
play in Down and Cooper Cup chose to play in
Seattle and Seattle's going nowhere and they got a suck
back quarterback and Sam Darnold. So I've got ac DC
wheelbarrow and celebrity row and we will combine all of

(04:16):
these things together.

Speaker 3 (04:18):
And we are going to give you a.

Speaker 2 (04:20):
Migraine headache unless we don't. We're gonna attempt to not
give you a migraine headache. But first of all, it's
a bad look all the way roun. Now, I'm gonna
include Jerry Jones in this little exercise, but no one
is smelling all that good around the Dallas Cowboys. Now
I'm not being too dramatic here. Let me make my

(04:40):
elevator pitch. Why this is We have long preached behind
the microphones of Fox Sports Radio, the bully pulpit here,
that recruiting pitches by players is dumb. It's always dumb.
It's el lamo, is what it is. And this is
a great example.

Speaker 3 (04:58):
The only thing you gain from the social media or
phone contact with a player is a little bit of
cloud online.

Speaker 2 (05:10):
You get a little bit of cloud low information. Fans
get all excited. They give you a little shoulder rub.
They're like, oh man, you were going above and beyond
the collar. Dude, he's trying to recruit player X to
come to our team. And it's a waste of breath.
Though the reason it's a waste of breath, It's like
the ac DC song. Money talks. That's what it's all about.

(05:33):
All this other stuff is just filler. It's all filler.
Money is what matters. Cooper cup can talk about going
back to Seattle and he's from the Pacific Northwest and
all that it's bull crap. Seattle's paying him was a
fifteen million dollars a year. That's why he went to Seattle.
If the Patriots paid him that of the Cowboys paid him,
that he'd be playing for one of those teams and

(05:54):
singing the praises. It has nothing to do, nothing to
do with players reaching out and recruiting. Sure, it makes
you feel good, but it's about the tailored suits, the
chauffeured cars. It's the the fine hotels, those big cigars.

Speaker 3 (06:08):
Just like the song, it's all.

Speaker 2 (06:09):
About that, and those things are much more important than
some random text chain with Dak Prescott and Ceed Lamb.
I'd love to see how that went. Hey, it's it's Dak.
How would you like to play wide receiver for the Cowboys? Yeah,
I'm good. I got some white walls over here. I

(06:30):
gotta sell my God and Jerry Jones. My favorite part
of the story is not just that Dak Prescott and
Ceedee Lamb reached out to Cooper Cup. But then you
you dig a little deeper below the surface. Normally we
just deal with the surface. Talk radio, we just deal
with the surface. But when you dig a little deeper,
you realize that the cowboys were interested in Cooper Cup

(06:55):
until they found something out about Cooper Cup. What do
you think that will? Yeah, the plot thickens. Yeah, Jerry
Jones was interested until he learned the asking price. And
once he learned the asking price of what Cooper Cup wanted,
Jerry how masculating he had deputized Dak and Ceedee Lamb.

(07:16):
And then he finds out how much these guys want
and he got sticker shock, Am good, I'm good now,
I do believe that's the right call. Cooper Cupp showing
signs of decline. The last several years, Sean McVeigh was
begging de Vonte Adams to come to the Rams. The
Rams had decided that this was a diminishing asset Cooper Cup.

(07:39):
They had to get rid of him. And Sean McVay
is very wrong, very rarely wrong. Mcvay's very rarely wrong
about those type of moves. And it's always funny though,
the Cowboys, who I'm pretty sure if you go into
the bowels of the Death Star in Jerry's world, that
Jerry has the Federal Reserve printing press somewhere in the

(08:01):
bowels of the Death Star, and yet he's Nicolin diming
things like I wouldn't pay Cooper Cup, but Jerry Jones
can afford to do it, and Jerry's got to do
something to keep the natives from going nuts here.

Speaker 3 (08:13):
Now.

Speaker 2 (08:13):
Secondly, staying with the theme of the hour, there was
a lot of chatter. You might have seen some of
this during the day here. Some published reports saying that
the Cowboys had discussed a potential long term contract with
Micah Parsons, their defensive star, and not only was it conversed,

(08:34):
supposedly the deal was about.

Speaker 3 (08:36):
To be finalized.

Speaker 2 (08:38):
There were some Internet sleuths who looked at comments made
by Micah Parson's relatives and determined that a deal was imminent. Okay, well,
that story was conflicted by state sponsored NFL media.

Speaker 3 (08:55):
The prov the news service of the NFL.

Speaker 2 (08:57):
A longtime confidant of Jerry Jones, who often licks his boots,
came out and said that no, in fact, there have
not been any meaningful talks between Mike and Parsons and
the Dallas Cowboys. So you had all day reports that
Michael Parsons was about to get an extension with the
Cowboys and he'll be like forty million dollars a year,

(09:18):
like all these other cats are getting these contracts. And
then the story was no, no, no, no, no, that's
bull crap.

Speaker 3 (09:25):
That hasn't happened. So the question on this.

Speaker 2 (09:29):
One right, explain where this Micah Parsons contract extension with
the Cowboys storyline is headed. So I know where it's
And we've seen this. We saw this with in recent years.
We saw this with Dakota Prescott. We're seeing a repeat here.
And Jerry Jones right now is pushing a wheelbarrow. The

(09:51):
wheelbarrow is filled with a pile of procrastination, that's what
it's filled with, filled with. I mean, it's a Sunday
drive for Jerry Jones. Jerry loves to take his time
with this kind of stuff because he knows it's a
store and every day there's a bunch of ink stained
wretches who are cowboy beat writers who have to come

(10:14):
up with a different angle to the Cowboys every day.

Speaker 3 (10:17):
And this is a pretty good fallback story Micah Parsons.

Speaker 2 (10:20):
Will he get paid, he's got one year left, does
he not get paid, and all that stuff. But ultimately
we know that Jerry Jones, he's got this business model,
as he likes us his own words, he says, when
things get slow around here with the Cowboys, he will
stir it up. And so he's got this Micah Parsons story.
But I would imagine it would go down to we

(10:42):
get close to training camp, if not after training camp,
and then in the eleventh hour, like a great spy
movie where they cut the cord on the dynamite just
before it's about to explode, Jerry will then agree to
an extension with Michah Barsons. And Michah loves playing of
the Cowboys, all the perks, Everyone kisses your ass, you

(11:03):
need to do a crappy podcast, you get a lot
of people excited about it, and all that stuff. And
he is really the on brand Cowboy player because if
you were saying, what is the defensive equivalent of what
Dak Prescott does on the offensive side for the for
the Cowboys, that would be Michael Parsons, Like Michaeh Parsons

(11:25):
on defense has some pretty good numbers. Most of the time,
there are a lot of empty calories, a lot of
empty calories from Michael Parsons.

Speaker 3 (11:33):
All right, now, final fuck, we head to Indianapolis we go,
and another one of these anonymous NFL coach stories, which
are always good, whether they're made up or not, they're fun
to talk about. So an anonymous NFL coach was waxing
loquacious about Daniel Jones. That's right, Danny Dimes, the Vanilla

(11:58):
Vick of the NFL.

Speaker 2 (12:00):
So what do you make of this NFL anonymous coach
saying that Daniel Jones and the Colts are a quote
perfect match, close quote perfect match.

Speaker 3 (12:13):
So the argument is that Indy is a sleepy po
dunk town side by side with.

Speaker 2 (12:23):
New York City, even though I know the Giants played
in Jersey and they still play in Jersey.

Speaker 3 (12:29):
But you get the whole point. So that's the argument.
The argument is, if you listen between the words, it's like, well,
it's a perfect match because it's just a slower way
of life in Indianapolis than New York City.

Speaker 2 (12:43):
But Daniel Jones, the way I interpret it, whoever this
unnamed anonymous coach is is really saying Daniel Jones is
a turd, and Daniel Jones cannot handle the pressure. Pressure, pressure, pressure,
can't handle it. And as a result of not being

(13:05):
able to handle pressure, he needs to go somewhere like
the Horseshoe City that's got you know, the Hoosier State's
got a slower pace of life. It's just he's got
to do it. So it's really a left handed compliment,
is what it is. Uh, And the only way it's perfect.
I was saying, like, how could you say this is perfect?

(13:27):
Based on what I have seen of Daniel Jones playing
quarterback in the NFL, he does have a pretty good
future in a big market.

Speaker 3 (13:40):
The problem is that big market's Kroger.

Speaker 2 (13:43):
I think he could work with some of you boys
that are working at the groceries.

Speaker 3 (13:48):
I think he could do it. Mister a nice guy,
and we.

Speaker 2 (13:52):
Had a call earlier from one of our guys in Memphis,
Big Daddy, right, help you out there. That's the big
market work. I don't think he's qualified to work at
Pigley Wiggley. I don't think you can go to Pickwigy.
Now Kroger, I think you can do Kroger. I think
you can do it and if you can't handle the pressure,
Am I wrong to think?

Speaker 3 (14:12):
I don't know, what do I know? I just do
the Overnight Show?

Speaker 2 (14:14):
But am I wrong to think that if you can't
handle pressure as a quarterback, that's problematic and that you
have to hide because ultimately, at some point, if you
actually end up turning things around, you're going to play
in a pressure game and what's gonna happen. You're gonna
need diapers, is what you're going to need, because it's
gonna be a problem, and under any reasonable measurement, any

(14:35):
reasonable measurement, Danny Dimes plays like Tracy Morgan sitting on
celebrity row at a Knickerbocker game. It is a sandwich,
a puke sandwich is what you get. The only way
it's a perfect match is the fact that the quarterback
room has on one side Anthony Richardson, who I'm pretty

(14:57):
sure would be like a second line and Pop Warner
the way he's played in the NFL. And then on
the other side you've got Daniel Jones. So as Forrest Gump,
that's an old movie taught me years ago. Stupid is
as stupid does, and that would be the Indianapolis Colt
Front Office. Stupid is as stupid does. It is the
Ben Mahlor Show, and we are just warming up for

(15:21):

Speaker 2 (15:51):
We also have too much or not enough coming up

(16:11):
so from right now. Time now for the Mallard Riddle
of the Day. And here is the Mallor Riddle of
the day.

Speaker 3 (16:19):
Now.

Speaker 2 (16:20):
Normally we try to do sports sporty malar. If there's
no good sporty riddle. We don't have to do sports.
We're not destined to have to be sporty, Mallar. We
can do other things. For example, here is the malor
riddle of the day. The astronauts here, these astronauts were
stuck in space for months, like eight months or something

(16:42):
like that.

Speaker 3 (16:43):
It was a long time. In fact, it was nine months.
It's actually nine months.

Speaker 2 (16:48):
So the astronauts who were stranded in outer space for
nine months were greeted by a blank during their splashdown
in the goal of America's it's being called now. So
astronauts stranded in space for nine months came crashing back down,

(17:10):
and they were greeted by a blank. That is the
malor riddle of the day. The answer, we'll get to it.
We will do it.

Time to pay off the Mallor riddle of the day.
And here it is.

Speaker 2 (19:07):

Speaker 2 (19:30):
By an army of langeliers from Lady Sideburns a spring
break party, from Late Night drug tester see here, medicinal purposes,
something with medicinal purposes from Stevie Meatball's telemarketers asking about
their expired auto insurance from Donkey Sausage page down, Sharks

(19:53):
in the water forming the words the cowboys still suck?
That is from from Shay Who else? Do we have
a lot lizard? Guessed by Mason in Huntington Beach. I
had no idea what a lot lizard was until I
met our friend from Boston, Matt, who drives the truck.

(20:13):
I had no idea that never never heard of that phrase.
Ferg dog, let's see your page down, he says. An
air friar from Iowa Sam that he tossed out in
the ocean, but I barelyer. I think he worked on
the show for like a day, Iowa Seam. I think
it was like one day. King Roy says, A bottle
of garlic flavored vodka is the answer. Sawman says, A

(20:37):
raft of refugees is what they found out there somewhere
in the ocean.

Speaker 3 (20:41):
Who else?

Speaker 2 (20:42):
Robin Minnesota says a Hunter Biden, apologizing for his father
Hawaiian hula dancers from JT. The Wingman Kanye Flipper West
guessed by Milkman Mike in Colorado. Digital Space Monkey says
midget wrestlers is the answer. Ozzie was going with that

(21:04):
iconic line from the long forgotten movie, A bunch of
hookers and cocaine is the answer? All right, the question
one more time. This is the riddle of the day,
the mallor riddle of the day. The astronauts who were
stranded in outer space for nine months, they came back to.

Speaker 3 (21:22):
Planet Earth and they were greeted by.

Speaker 2 (21:24):
A blank and Mary Mack, do you have the answer,
Mary Mack, do you know the answer?

Speaker 3 (21:29):
A group of pirates, A group of pirates.

Speaker 2 (21:34):
No, certainly not Pittsburgh pirates. The correct answer. They were
greeted on their return to Earth by a pod of dolphins.
A pod of dolphins. Yeah, pretty cool. I've gone whale
watching a bunch, but almost always see dolphins.

Speaker 3 (21:56):
I don't see very many whales.

Speaker 2 (21:58):
One time I was out in a bus out in
the middle of nowhere and they were like a thousand dolphins.
It was the coolest thing, The biggest group of dolphins
I've ever seen in my life. Was so cool awesome,
And of course we paid for whale watching. We didn't
see any whales, but we did see a lot of dolphins,
and they seem to be having a great time. And

(22:19):
the dolphins like their showoff dolphins. They're like these spinner
dolphins out here and they'll put on a showy. They
love to have everyone look at him, razzle dazzle. That
whole thing is the Ben Maler show.

Speaker 3 (22:33):
And Eini meani miny mo. Let's say a little big
E real quick. Then we'll get to the game. Big
E is in h down what's going on? Big ee? Welcome?

Speaker 1 (22:42):
All right, big man? How you doing tonight?

Speaker 2 (22:44):
If I was any better, I'd be a too a
but not al touve because.

Speaker 3 (22:50):
He's not playing right well in the outfield. Come on, man,
you're talking to the wrong guy on that. I haven't
forgiven you for twenty seventeen on your mind.

Speaker 1 (23:01):
Hey, I'm a first time caller, but I want to
say I'll listen to your show all the time. A guy,
have enough mirror to call you tonight because I just
wanted to ask your point of view on something. And
I hang up and listen to which the response is.
But me and the guys we were having a couple
of drinks the other night and we were talking about
the Hall of Fame election committee, you know for different

(23:24):
sports to the NBA, NFL or whatever MLB, and I
was telling him that once a player breaks the all
time record, maybe even cracks the top three of all
time records, he ships have to wait five years to
get in the Hall of Fame or whatever it is.

(23:45):
If you break the all time record, I think you
are to be able to get in that next year.
Are even the same year. Yeah, So you just wanted
to know what you thoughts were on that that would
be a good way to shake up the Hall of Fame.
Into the Hall of Fame selection committee.

Speaker 3 (24:02):
Yeah, well there's a million there's the problem.

Speaker 2 (24:05):
Well, thank you very much for getting the intentional fortitude,
big Ee, to call it. Most people never call these shows.
They listened, but they never call you had you had
the court, you had the you know, you got guts,
big Ee, you got guts, and.

Speaker 3 (24:20):
I thank you for that.

Speaker 1 (24:21):
I just wanted to hear your response.

Speaker 3 (24:23):
All right, I'll tell you all all right, listen. Uh.

Speaker 2 (24:28):
The reason the Hall of Fames do not agree with you,
and I'm fine with it. I've evolved my position. I
used to be like, for example, the whole steroid ear
in baseball, I was like, these guys shouldn't get in
the Hall of Fame.

Speaker 3 (24:41):
And then because I covered baseball.

Speaker 2 (24:43):
I was a kid, I was a young, young punk
in the nineties, and I covered baseball and I know
that guys are in the Hall of Fame right.

Speaker 3 (24:49):
Now that we're using steroids. So I was like, all right,
will let them all in.

Speaker 2 (24:53):
But the reason the Hall of Fame will not follow
your lead their big Ee, they're so paranoid that so
one's gonna sat an all time record and then like
a year later they're gonna go O J and chop
a couple of people's heads off, and they're gonna be
in the Hall of Fame.

Speaker 3 (25:09):
And they don't know they're.

Speaker 2 (25:09):
They're you gotta like you have all this other stuff
involved with all of itame.

Speaker 3 (25:13):
But I hear what you're saying. The Hall of Fame
is a business.

Speaker 2 (25:16):
Though it's ultimately a business and it's a it's about,
you know, getting people show up every year and all
that stuff. But uh yeah, I think if you said
an all time record in a sport, you shouldn't have
to wait. Now, they do wave it every once in
a while. Usually if you're on your deathbed or something
like that, they'll wave it. They've done a few times
in different sports where they waive the waiting period.

Speaker 3 (25:37):
But I don't think that's a terrible, terrible I d biggie.

Speaker 2 (25:39):
But they're they're afraid about the morality part of it,
very very moral, these Hall of Fames.

Speaker 3 (25:45):
Oh, let's get to the game. Here we go hit
that too much or not enough enough? Already too much
or not enough. Let's play the game right now. We
walk them in Richie the bartender in the Bay Area. Hello, Richie,
the bartenders.

Speaker 4 (26:01):
How are we doing?

Speaker 2 (26:02):
Welcome in, Richie. How's bartending going for you?

Speaker 3 (26:07):
All right?

Speaker 1 (26:07):
Way, tails and a bunch of stuff the restaurant.

Speaker 3 (26:09):
Do everything?

Speaker 2 (26:10):
You do everything, man, You're like a Swiss army knife.
You do a little bit of everything.

Speaker 3 (26:15):
Something like that. Yeah, all right, there, I got you. Well,
good luck to you.

Speaker 1 (26:19):
Here.

Speaker 2 (26:19):
We're gonna play the game too much or not enough.
I'll ask you a series of questions. You have to
get three right to win the game. Get all five right,
and I'll give you two golden tickets. But you only
have to get three right to win a golden ticket.
Are you ready, Richie, Yes, sir, all right, question number one.

Speaker 3 (26:34):
Here we go.

Speaker 2 (26:35):
Cad Cunningham, that's a basketball player for the Pistons, has
at least six field goals made and at least four
assists in all thirty three of his road games this
season to begin this season. That is the longest streak
the start of season since the merger. The next longest

(26:55):

Oh, you know what if they're willing, if they're not committed,
if they are not in a married relationship. There is
no technical lines on that. So if they want to
leave their thing and play with you for a bit,
who who are? Who are you to stop it? And
that sounds a little toxic, but relationships can be that something.

move on the other person and not feel bad.
