Speaker 1 (00:00):
He we go.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
It's our number three, our number three, the rare and appropriate,
rare and appropriate look at the track horse racing, where
do you fall on the great debate? Is the quick
turnaround from the Derby to the Preakness outdated? There's a
grassroots movement to add another week between those races, or
(00:25):
does it add to the challenge that makes the Triple
Crown special?
Speaker 3 (00:31):
We'll discuss that.
Speaker 2 (00:32):
Also talks in baseball, as the Dodgers suffering another injury,
how concerned should the Dodgers be about Tiascar Hernandez and
his injury groin injury. He'll be out for a fair
amount of time, And should the Dodgers' medical staff face
questions about the volume of injuries The Dodgers lead major
(00:52):
League Baseball with players on the injured list.
Speaker 3 (00:55):
Here in twenty twenty five, we'll talk about all that
and more. Right now here, it is our number three.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
Get this, you're listening to Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 2 (01:09):
It is just horse plates, all horse plants, all it
is welcome in the beginning of another.
Speaker 3 (01:17):
Hour of the Ben Malar Show. We are in the air.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
Emwhere as we keep talking and talking and talking and talking,
we're just touching bases. All we're doing, we're just touching bases.
We ripple through the night, coast to coast, border the
motor and beyond on the mast and wonderfully powerful microphones
of fs are emminating live from the rounds the Championship
(01:47):
rounds of verbal pugilism the Fox Sports radio studios, as
approved by Kathy and Madison and Fried Daddy in Pennsylvania.
As we roll on this portion of the Ben Mallors
made possible in part by ti Iraq.
Speaker 3 (02:02):
That's Roight, our friend. We love ti Iraq.
Speaker 2 (02:04):
For forty years, ty Iraq has been helping customers find
the right tires for how, what and where they drive.
Ship fast and free back by free road hazard protection
with convenient installation options, which Ferg Dog smiles every time
he hears that I have mobile tire installation. Mister nice
guy likes that tire iraq dot Com the way tire
(02:26):
buying should be, so we're gonna change it up. The
NBA Playoffs have been going on. We've had good games.
Normally we come in here every sports talk radio guy
comes here in the bitches about how bad the games are.
But the game has been wonderful. It's it's fun, it's good.
There's nothing to complain about. But I just don't want
to spend the entire night talking about these games. There's
another story that's right in my wheelhouse, which is rare
(02:47):
and appropriate. We're gonna talk about I don't normally talk
about the this kind of story, but this was red
meat in the talk show host den and right there.
Speaker 3 (02:56):
So we're gonna talk about the ponies. Why are you
gonna talk about the pony race? This weekend? Calm down?
Speaker 2 (03:02):
We had record setting, record setting television ratings. Who watched
the run for the Roses, which was correctly predicted by
our horse prognosticator Lorraina, who picked the winning horse in
the Kentucky Derby. But we've learned now, yes you are congratulations,
So not that you watched the racer could name any
(03:22):
hortes anyway, it was really muddy. There was a muddy,
rainy day there in Kentucky. And so we have the
second leg of the Triple Crown, which will be going
off without the Kentucky Derby winner. You see, sovereignty, The
horse that won the derby will not be racing in
the Preakedness States, which are a week from Saturday not
(03:45):
going to.
Speaker 3 (03:46):
Happen on May seventeenth. That horse will not show up.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
In fact, of the nineteen horses that ran in the
big race there in Louisville. Of the nineteen horses, only
Journal and American Promise are considering running in the Preakness.
Speaker 3 (04:05):
That's it.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
So I assume you know where I'm going with this,
but maybe not. There has been a growing drum beat,
a grassroots movement, if you will, that the Triple Crown
is outdated. They need to change the schedule. There needs
to be some tweaking, not the kind that jedu Fled likes.
I'm just some tweaking to the schedule to ensure that
(04:29):
the top horses are able to compete in the Preakness
and the Belmont, and that it's just not fair the
way it is right now.
Speaker 3 (04:38):
It's not fair.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
So the belief is by modifying the schedule and moving
the dates of the Preakness and the Belmont moving back
one week. Each race moved back one week, in theory,
you would give the horses enough time to recover from
the Kentucky Derby and then from the Preakness to run
in the Belmont, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. They
(05:00):
could run all three horses, all three horse races and
everything would be good. That all you need to do
is little extra time.
Speaker 3 (05:07):
We're good to go.
Speaker 2 (05:09):
So let us discuss. Let us discuss the question where
do you fall on the great debate? If you will,
is the quick turnaround from the Kentucky Derby to the
Preakness outdated like some naysayers are pointing out these days,
or or does it add to the challenge that makes
(05:30):
the Triple Crown a special event? So I'm going to
go with mind virus, Flowtilla and WWE, and we will
combine all of these things together, and we're going to
make some peacan pie delicious PEACMPI. For years I didn't
(05:51):
eat peacan pie, and then I had it one years
in a few years back, and what I missed out
on peacan pi. I didn't realize how good peacan pie was.
I was like, there's two things in my life that
I didn't eat for a long time. I started eating
an adult deep dish Chicago pizza and pecan pi. Love them both,
love them both, just wonderful. All right, now, let's get
(06:13):
to the question. All right, So where again where do
you fall great debate, blah blah blah blah blah, quick
turn around from the Derby to the Preakness, said to
be outdated, or does it actually add a to the challenge.
It adds to the excitement and makes the Triple Crown special. So,
first of all, the fact that we're even having this conversation,
(06:35):
the fact that this has come to my attention in
the middle of the night, here is a sign of
the times. It is a sign of times, and it's
an one of those things that you just like shake
your head at and you're like, you know, I know,
I'm getting older. I'm not as old as the Triple Crown.
The Triple Crown races started in eighteen seventy five. Okay,
(06:58):
not nineteen seventy five. Eighteen seventy five, it's one hundred
and fifty years ago. And all of a sudden, after
one hundred and fifty years of the racing is well,
maybe it's not that long. It was more like nineteen nineteen. Well, no,
it started and it became more of a bigger deal.
The first Triple Crown winner was in nineteen nineteen. But
(07:21):
the grueling schedule, it's too hard, Oh, it's so hard.
Speaker 3 (07:27):
It's part of the mystique. Okay, it's part of the mistique,
isn't it. Am I wrong?
Speaker 2 (07:32):
I'm the old guy now, it's part of the mystique.
It's supposed to be difficult, is it not? Like maybe
I was taught wrong. I mean I thought all these things,
like you got people bitching because Steph Curry's hurt for
the Warriors and you have these guys hurt for Cleveland
and basketball playoffs, like, oh, it's not right.
Speaker 3 (07:52):
That's part of the deal. Injury is part of it.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
And changing the schedule in the Triple Crown Race would
cheapen the historical significance. Much like in basketball they're like,
well we should only play sixty five games. The players
are such wusses they can't handle it, essentially what they're saying.
Speaker 3 (08:13):
But it changes everything, right, changed the whole dynamic. And
no matter.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
How low you go, there will always be people that
say that's not low enough. Meaning if you give an
extra week in the horse racing, they'll say, well, we
really need two extra weeks or three actual weeks. Just
like in basketball you say, well everyone's going to play
every game of its sixty five games.
Speaker 3 (08:33):
Bull crap.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
No, they'll just say, well, sixty five's a lot, so
we really only want to play like fifty five, and
then if you make it fifty five, they'll be, well,
fifty five's a lot. I think we have an advantage
if we only play like forty five.
Speaker 3 (08:45):
You see how it works. You see how the game works.
The horse racing thing blows me.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
Like you could say, in basketball or in you know,
different various sports, people are like, well, the athletes are complaining.
The athletes don't complain. In horse race, they don't talk.
They do not talk. The horses have never complained. They've
never complained about the.
Speaker 3 (09:07):
Races, none of them.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
But if you change the schedule, you might as well
put an asterisk if you have a Triple Crown winner.
The challenge of facing fresh horses in the Preakness is
what makes the Triple Crown a special event. I'm no
horse racing guy. I go to track a couple times
a year, and I talk about horse racing usually only
once a year. Unless there's a Triple Crown, then we'll
(09:32):
talk about it three times a year.
Speaker 3 (09:34):
That's about it.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
But what this is is the NBA mind virus of
load management has affected every other sport, every other It
started with that weasel Greg Popovich who sent a bunch
of players home on Southwest airlines in the NBA, and
it has slowly grown. And David Stern, the old commissioner
of the NBA, said this is a problem. We need
to stop this. And people laughed at David Stern, they said,
(09:58):
you're just a boomer, the old commissioner of the.
Speaker 3 (10:00):
NBA, and he's dead. But he was right.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
He was absolutely right. Try to nip it in the
bud and all that. And again, the horses do not care.
They do not care. This is a business decision. The
only reason that horses do not run in the Preakness,
in the Belmont from the Kentucky Derby is because they
are trying to preserve The people that own the horses
are trying to preserve the horse's value, and that horses
get hurt a lot, right, It's pretty crazy running these races,
(10:27):
and so the owners the reason they don't race the
horses in these other races now is because of the
fact that they're trying to keep their pile of money.
That financially, you keep the horses healthier, they have longer careers,
but more.
Speaker 3 (10:41):
Importantly a top thoroughbred horse.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
You know what happens, right, you win a big race
like the Kentucky Derby, you are set up. Sovereignty will
spend the rest of its life earning millions of dollars
by stooping other horses. Yes, they will be hanging out
to the stud fees, they call him. So anyway, all right,
(11:06):
we'll go over to baseball. I did want to rant
about that. The Dodgers announced that ti Oscar Hernandez. Dodger
manager Dave Roberts I liked him in that spot. Dave
Roberts announced that Tiascar Hernandez is headed to the We
used to call the d L, now they call the
IL because the Wolkesh's got involved in baseball. A Grade
one abductor strain. Grade one abductor strain. So what does
(11:29):
that mean? In layman's terms, that means that it's a
fancy way of saying he hurt his twigging berries, rather
than say you have a strain drawing you.
Speaker 3 (11:40):
It's a strained abductor, which is the big part of
the anatomy there. You can check that out.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
Now, how concerned here's the question, how concerned should the
Dodgers be about ti Oscar hernandez injury situation. So on
the patented Malard scale of concern one to ten, I'm
only at a six point five. I'm not that worried
about it because we're in May, the playoffs.
Speaker 3 (12:08):
Playoffs are not.
Speaker 2 (12:09):
Until October, and it's said to be a grade one
Recovery time from a grade one groinstrain typically is one
to three weeks. With baseball, you always bet the over.
You always bet the over, So that's he's gonna be
out a month. And here's the thing, though, ti Oscar Hernandez.
You look at the Dodgers, despite having the three Musketeers
(12:32):
of most valuable players in baseball with Mookie bats, Freddie
Freeman and Shoheo Tani, it has been t O who
has been the locomotive who has been leading the Dodger
due drue train. In fact, at the time of his injury,
he was unpaced it forty nine doubles, forty four home runs,
and drive in one hundred and sixty six runs on
(12:53):
pace is a weasel term. Now his season is in
suspended animation until he's able to come back from the injury,
and the Dodgers without him, will have a lack of
panache ti Oscar had brought it. They did lose somehow
to Lamarlins in extra innings, for whatever that's worth. And
so does this small problem become a bigger problem.
Speaker 3 (13:17):
For the Dodgers.
Speaker 2 (13:19):
Are they in danger of somehow missing the plus No,
they're not in danger of missing the playoffs? And all
that to major League baseball players in general are the
least tough athletes outside of the major sports leagues, right,
They're the least tough. And the Dodgers, though, have this
flotilla of extra or even without the panache of ti
(13:42):
Oscar Hernandez that they've got some other guys that have that.
Or now James Outman, what a terrible name for a
baseball player. Outman, James Outman called up again from Triple
A Oklahoma City, and he will replace ti Oscar Hernandez
in the Mighty Dodger Blue line up there, and so
he'll get the first chance. And some of these auxiliary
guys have really sucked this year for the Dodgers, mainly
(14:03):
Michael Confordo, who was hitting in the one forties one
forties uh and was on paste at nine home runs
and strike out one hundred and seventy six times for.
Speaker 3 (14:14):
The Dodgers, which I don't think is good. You know,
I don't think that's particularly good.
Speaker 2 (14:18):
All right, final thought, So should the Dodgers' medical staff
face the music, if you will, about the volume of injuries.
Speaker 3 (14:30):
So the answer on this is y es, yeah.
Speaker 2 (14:33):
I mean, obviously, the Dodgers talked a good game about
we're going to get to the bottom of this. We're
going to figure out why these guys keep getting hurt,
and they can't seem to figure it out.
Speaker 1 (14:43):
Now.
Speaker 3 (14:43):
I have my own.
Speaker 2 (14:44):
Theories, which I'll share with you in a second. But
the Dodgers led by nerd Army, and hey, it's working.
They're in the World Series every couple of years they
win the World Series. Of course, they spend the most money.
You could have no Nerds there, and you spend the
most money, they'll probably be okay. But the all high
end mighty Dodger nerd Army there, smartest guys in the room,
(15:04):
smartest guys in the room. And yet when it comes
to the injuries that are out there, the injury bug,
they are like a classic w WE wrestler hornswaggled. They
are hornswaggled by the injuries.
Speaker 3 (15:20):
How bad is it? It's so bad.
Speaker 2 (15:22):
The Dodgers are number one in baseball when it comes
to players that have been on the what we used
to call the disabled list. This year they've had sixteen
players who have been put on the DL or the
IL or all that.
Speaker 3 (15:37):
Now.
Speaker 2 (15:37):
In twenty twenty four, the Dodgers won the World Series
with a rag tag, weather beaten, broken down pitching staff.
They were third in baseball in uses of the injured
list in twenty twenty four. The Dodgers have consistently been
a top five team for years when it comes to
players being put on the injured list, and they keep
(16:00):
saying they're gonna figure it out. They're reviewing everything. Here's
the rub, though. The Dodgers spend more money than anybody.
The Dodgers coddle their players, they spoil their players, and
as a result of that, my belief is these guys
get soft. Baseball players are soft anyway. They're all making
(16:22):
ridiculous money, and it's even more insane.
Speaker 3 (16:24):
With the Dodgers.
Speaker 2 (16:25):
And it's kind of like if you have to, if
you have to go out and sing for your supper,
you're gonna make sure. Your voice is pretty good, right,
if you don't really have to sing for your supper,
You've already got your supper taking care of.
Speaker 3 (16:36):
Yeah, you want to take you in an extra time there?
Speaker 2 (16:38):
I mean I could play, but I don't really need
to play, and I out of an abundance of caution,
and we're going to put you on the injury list.
Speaker 3 (16:46):
Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah.
Speaker 2 (16:49):
It is the Ben Maler Show. If you'd like to
comment on that or anything else, you can join us
right now.
Speaker 3 (16:54):

Speaker 2 (17:32):
Jaguars rookie Travis Hunter rejected his fiance's gift of a blank,
saying that he wanted a boat instead. Again, Jacksonville rookie
Travis Hunter from Colorado rejected his fiance's gift of a blank,
saying that he wanted a boat instead.
Speaker 3 (17:54):

Big morning show producer, How lucky are we?

Speaker 2 (19:07):
Lead a lap earlier, the better let's take I'll take
this anytime on ex lead a lap and now back
to it. We're gonna pay off at Mallory the other day.
I just I probably shouldn't talk about this on the air,
but I'm gonna talk about it, Okay, So do it
all right. So I've had a lot of ridiculous things
that have happened in my time here at Fox Sports Radio,
but this is one of the more ridiculous things that
(19:29):
it has taken.
Speaker 3 (19:29):
I think you'd agree, right, Loraina, Lee Flopper Gas. Yeah,
there was a there was a situation. Some people came by.
Speaker 2 (19:38):
Some a friend of the show that I've known for
many years came by and was invited them in a
very happy situation and so visited for a little bit,
very cordial like, nothing was awkward at all. Everything was fine,
and we took a photo. Normally people come in studio,
we take photos. That's normally how it goes. That's a
normal protocol. Normally those photos get posted on social media.
(19:59):
That happened, and normally no one has a problem with
it because that's just what normal people do, they post
photos on social media. But for some reason, I get
like a threatening message that government agents, government governing bodies
violation of rights.
Speaker 3 (20:20):
What all right?
Speaker 2 (20:22):
So I'm gonna delete the photo. Okay, I'm never going
to talk to the person again. I'm going to delete
the photo. I'm ready to think of in it, right,
what do you I mean?
Speaker 4 (20:29):
Yeah? Or you could just blur out their face.
Speaker 3 (20:32):
I could, that's true. I couldn't blur out face.
Speaker 2 (20:35):
Oh that's a good idea. You know what, that's a
great idea. You're so smart at social media. So I'm
gonna I'm gonna keep the photo, but I'll cover their face, okay,
that way, and then just untag them.
Speaker 3 (20:48):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (20:49):
Well I think they untagged themselves on that. So I'm
gonna go and I'll do that.
Speaker 4 (20:53):
So these threats were after you already untagged.
Speaker 3 (20:57):
I didn't they were tagged, but I guess they were
on they were untagged. There's an interesting situation for me.
Oh very good.
Speaker 2 (21:04):
There's a change, all right, So I'm gonna have to edit.
I don't think I can do this right now and
talk at the same time, so I think there's some
editing involved, and then I'll just like add a like
a smiley face type like thing here. I don't know
if I can do that, though, maybe I might have
to delete.
Speaker 4 (21:18):
You send me the photo.
Speaker 5 (21:20):
I will add the smiley face over the photo, send
it back to you, and then you can repost it.
Speaker 3 (21:25):
Okay, Oh that's a good idea. You can't get it.
Speaker 4 (21:29):
Can be petty about it, yeah, yeah, petty Ben.
Speaker 3 (21:31):
I mean this is right up there.
Speaker 2 (21:32):
I mean this is you know, when I did my website,
I got I got like a stack of cease and
desist letters, which.
Speaker 3 (21:39):
I thought was funny. You know.
Speaker 2 (21:40):
It's like there was one college of basketball coach that
was in the NCAA tournament that had three lawyers sending
me messages threatening my existence and it was wonderful.
Speaker 4 (21:50):
Anyway, when you were in your sports.
Speaker 2 (21:53):
What's it called the blogs fear, Yes, I was in
the blogsphere.
Speaker 3 (21:57):
It was one of the early bloggers back in the
day before a social.
Speaker 4 (22:00):
Media I mean trash talker.
Speaker 2 (22:02):
No, no, I just like a gossip website thing, all right. Anyway,
here we have the Queen of hearts coming up. Get
those questions in and time Now for the malor riddle
of the day, And here it is. Jacksonville rookie Travis
Hunter rejected his fiance's gift of a blank, saying he
wanted a boat instead.

Yeah, so I took one. He said, you just got
to get battery for it. The batteries are dead, but
you're good.
Speaker 3 (25:12):
So I guess he wore them until they wore the
battery died, and.
Speaker 4 (25:14):
Then he's getting well, who really collect watches.
Speaker 5 (25:16):
I was at a watch shop the other day and
this man, I thought he already got three of them fixed.
Speaker 4 (25:21):
He kept pulling more out of his pockets.
Speaker 3 (25:23):
Oh really, yeah, just watch people like shoe people. You know,
whatever you're thinking, whatever you think.
Speaker 2 (25:29):
There's people collect shoes. That guy bow Boll on the radio.
He used to I don't does he work here anymore?
I don't.
Speaker 3 (25:35):
I don't see him anymore. No, he pops in everyone. Well,
but is he upstairs? Kg LHU down the road?
Speaker 2 (25:39):
Oh, down the road? So Bobo, he has like big
shoe collection, doesn't Uh? Is Rob Parker a shoe guy.
He's a shoe guy too, Robes. I've gotten shoes for
Rob before I went. I went through Rob to get
shoes and they should say he didn't give you the
sho No, well, no Rob giving you the shoes. He
probably urge me more.
Speaker 3 (26:00):
He'll direct you. Yes, and they're definitely out of the
back of a Trump. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (26:05):
Yeah, Rob's he knows the guy you know you got.
He needs people that know a guy. Yeah. The key
I've learned is I've gotten older. You got to know
people that have a guy. You know, you gotta have
you know, a guy for watches, a guy for shoes,
you gotta have a guy. You just need a guy
that just That's the key to life is you need
a lot of people that are like experts in certain areas.
Speaker 3 (26:24):
All Right, anyway, what do we have you Let's see
any Meenie money Moe. Should we play the game? I
think we should play the game. What do you think
hit that? If it's time, I believe it is time
to play the game, Ben Maller game. We've endured too
many of these? Is it too much or not enough?
All right, let's play too much or not enough. We
have Daniel in Michigan who's going to play.
Speaker 2 (26:43):
Hello, Daniel, welcome, Hey, he.
Speaker 3 (26:48):
First time caller, unbelieva. What are the odds? What are
the odds? There are actually other people listening that are
first time callers. Amazing? And what part of Michigan are
you in there? Daniel?
Speaker 1 (26:58):
Uh in Michigan, little town near Greenville, Brand Rapids area.
Speaker 2 (27:02):
I go, okay, all right, very cool. I have some
family up in the Upper Peninsula there in Michigan.
Speaker 3 (27:08):
So wait, truck.
Speaker 1 (27:10):
I just got back from Indiana.
Speaker 3 (27:12):
Okay, very cool? All right, Well, good luck to you here.
Speaker 2 (27:15):
And all you have to do is get three questions, right, Daniel,
drive in the tow truck and we always start out
with question number one. Now, remember the great thing about
this game, Daniel. There's a guy named Hollering James who
won this game. Waal fast asleep one of the great
moments in the history of the show. Waal fast asleep,
he won, He won the game. So that's just wild,
(27:36):
absolutely wild.
Speaker 3 (27:37):
Anyway.
Speaker 2 (27:38):
Question number one, only four teams have come back from
seven or more points down in the final minute of
playoff games in the play by play era.
Speaker 3 (27:47):
Is that too much or not enough.
Speaker 2 (27:52):
Enough?
Speaker 3 (27:53):
You say not enough?
Speaker 2 (27:54):
Is that right? Let's find out. No, it's actually too
much and it's the numbers three. The Warriors swept the
Blazers thanks to an overtime Game four to reach the
fifth straight NBA Finals.
Speaker 3 (28:07):
But the answer is is three. The answers three?
Speaker 1 (28:11):
All right?
Speaker 3 (28:12):
Question number two? Six teams, six teams.
Speaker 2 (28:18):
Yeah, the Pacers are Pacers over the Calves and the Pacers, Yeah,
Pacers of the Calves, Pacers over the Bucks, Warriors over
the Blazers, and the unfortunately the Thunder over the Clippers.
We're trying to forget that, but that was we made
one of those up. Anyway, all right?
Speaker 3 (28:31):
Question number two.
Speaker 2 (28:33):
Six teams set to unveil new helmets, including the Steelers, Chargers, Brown, Steelers, Saints,
and Bucks in the the new alternative uniforms of the NFL.
Is that too much or not enough?
Speaker 4 (28:48):
Too much.
Speaker 2 (28:50):
That is correct, All right, good cheat by you. The
Buccaneers will have no new alternative this season. Well, they've
got that Bucko Bruce one. They don't need anything other
than that. Right, that's the greatest.
Speaker 3 (29:05):
I like the Lions black uniform. You enjoyed that. Yeah,
but what about the Bucko Bruce.
Speaker 2 (29:09):
Well you're in Michigan though, But the Bucko Bruce with
the knife and the they ripped off.
Speaker 3 (29:13):
Robin hood and they made it a logo.
Speaker 2 (29:16):
All right, Question number three for our friend Daniel driving
a tow truck.
Speaker 3 (29:21):
He's back in Michigan.
Speaker 2 (29:23):
Jacob de Gram made a Major League Baseball history as
the Rangers pitcher, becoming the fastest in the modern era
to sixteen hundred career strikeouts? Is that too much.
Speaker 3 (29:35):
Or not enough?
Speaker 4 (29:39):
Not enough?
Speaker 3 (29:40):
Let's find out that is correct.
Speaker 2 (29:42):
Seventeen seventeen hundred strikeouts and the Gram is just the
thirteenth active pitcher to reach that milestone, not seventeen thousand.
Speaker 3 (29:50):
That would be impressive. Yeah, that would be.
Speaker 2 (29:52):
That would be that would be impressive. What you did
is you did coop map on that. That's what we
call coop map on that. Yeah, all right, too right?
One more right, answer. You win the game, Dan, you'll
get You'll get yourself a golden ticket. Here we go,
Question number four.
Speaker 3 (30:06):
Here we go.
Speaker 2 (30:07):
The San Francisco Giants began playing in eighteen eighty three.
There are ten runs in the eleventh inning in the
game that was played on Tuesday night, were the most
in an extra inning game in franchise history.
Speaker 3 (30:26):
Is that too much or not enough?
Speaker 4 (30:29):
Too much?
Speaker 3 (30:31):
Okay, let's find out this is for the win that.
Speaker 2 (30:34):
Time the game.
Speaker 3 (30:37):
You want the guy too.

Speaker 3 (33:19):
Hump Okay, yeah? Is I really? I thought it meant
something else.
Speaker 1 (33:23):
I didn't.
Speaker 4 (33:24):
I didn't realize any day this week you might as
well do.
Speaker 3 (33:27):
Today's the day.
Speaker 4 (33:28):
Today's the day.
Speaker 3 (33:30):
Oh see, I thought it meant something else.
Speaker 2 (33:31):
I didn't realize it meant that you're supposed to stoop
I didn't realize that.
Speaker 4 (33:34):
I didn't know that was a stupid day.
Speaker 2 (33:37):
It's a day designed for the stoopid. Okay, very nice,
and you were here to answer all the questions any
of them, many of them. People have questions, BP writes
in hashtag Queen of Hearts on x BP says, best
place to go on a first date besides dinner?
Speaker 3 (33:54):
Besides dinner? All right, very important? Where do you go
on a first day? Where do you want?
Speaker 5 (33:59):
Well, you know, it's good to be original, and they
used to have that dating show right where you would
go on like five different first dates, and that would
give some really good ideas.
Speaker 4 (34:07):
You could go golf.
Speaker 5 (34:08):
Karting, you could go mini golfing, you could go skydiving,
you could I don't even you could just take her
shopping for the first time.
Speaker 4 (34:16):
Don't just go to dinner.
Speaker 5 (34:17):
Obviously, feed the girl because they want to be fed
all the time. They're going to be in a better
mood if you feed them first.
Speaker 3 (34:24):
So food is the key that you go to the heart,
you go through the stomach.
Speaker 4 (34:31):
Is that exactly? Almost like almost like a man, but
a little bit.
Speaker 5 (34:34):
Different, a little bit okay, yeah, all right, but always
include food and your shenanigans.
Speaker 3 (34:40):
So I want to go back to that.
Speaker 2 (34:41):
This is not a question from a listener, but we
had a story earlier. Aaron Rodgers was spotted at the
Kentucky Derby. It looked like he had a wedding ring
on wedding, but people don't think he got married. Some
people think it's some kind of social experiment like the
Seinfeld show back in the day. So, Lorena, can you
explain the positives and the negatives of not being married
(35:02):
but wearing a wedding ring?
Speaker 1 (35:04):
Right?
Speaker 4 (35:04):
So, a lot of people do it as a deterrent
so that people don't try to hit on them.
Speaker 3 (35:08):
That would be the women.
Speaker 4 (35:10):
Yes, women usually do that, not men.
Speaker 1 (35:13):
Men.
Speaker 5 (35:14):
Men usually take off their wedding rings. I mean, maybe
I'm just you know, I've seen a lot of movies
and that's what happens. But I tend to see men
taking them off, not putting on fake ones. So yeah,
that is a little odd that he would do that. Yeah,
and like you said, everyone knows he's not married as.
Speaker 3 (35:30):
Far as we know. Maybe he got like a secret
he got.
Speaker 4 (35:33):
A ring that only fits on that one specific finger.
Speaker 3 (35:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (35:38):
Maybe, hmmm. Where do you think he got the ring?
You think about it like a pawn shop or something
like that, or maybe maybe yeah, hmm, interesting, Maybe it's
a promise ring. Maybe he's marrying an alien from another
part of the You see that story this week. There's
like three alien bases on Earth, according to the story.
Oh stop it, Yeah, Alaska, somewhere in south of Erica.
Speaker 3 (36:00):
Yeah, they're living a.
Speaker 4 (36:01):
Month, one in the middle of the ocean, right, they're supposedly.
Speaker 2 (36:03):
One in the ocean. Yeah, fg Dog, you're not a believer.
Bad job by you, ferg Dog writes and says Queen Hearts.
Is it okay to break up with someone because they
have really bad gas?
Speaker 4 (36:16):
Yes?
Speaker 5 (36:16):
If you cannot stand the way they smell all the time, Lee,
then yes, you can totally break up with someone over that.
Speaker 3 (36:24):
Yeah, or just have them eat different foods because you
depends what you say.
Speaker 4 (36:28):
People do not want to be told what to eat.
Speaker 5 (36:31):
Really, they don't want to change their lifestyles at all
if they're not gonna Yeah, no, all.
Speaker 3 (36:34):
Right, I believe Hollering James has a question for you. Hello,
hollering James. You have a question, Hollering James.
Speaker 4 (36:42):
Yeah, the arena.
Speaker 5 (36:43):
I had a question for you.
Speaker 3 (36:44):
I'm sorry I got your name wrong the first time.
Speaker 4 (36:47):
That's okay, man, what's up?
Speaker 3 (36:48):
You know?
Speaker 2 (36:49):
My question is it is very important.
Speaker 1 (36:50):
They're better to love and lost than never loved.
Speaker 5 (36:54):
At all, well, I fall in love like seven times
a week, so I would definitely say to love and
lose is better than to never love it all. Imagine
being a lower and never loving anyone. Oh no, no,
I didn't say making love everyone.
Speaker 3 (37:11):
What about your manners?
Speaker 1 (37:13):
James?
Speaker 3 (37:13):
My god? I go, I thank you, you're not. Let's
go to what a question? Myke guy?
Speaker 2 (37:20):
Mike the Leprechaun writes in he says, what would you do,
Lorena if the uber driver was hitting on you even
with your boyfriend in the car?
Speaker 3 (37:28):
Interesting?
Speaker 5 (37:29):
Why would the uber driver be hitting on me when
my boyfriend's in the car? If the uber driver is dropping.
Speaker 4 (37:34):
Off my food?
Speaker 3 (37:35):
I have no idea. I don't know. He just brought
that question. JT.
Speaker 2 (37:38):
The Wingman says, to make myself look like a better
catch on a trip to the East Coast, should I
introduce her to Marcel or to the Leprechaun?
Speaker 4 (37:50):
Ah, Marcel for sure?
Speaker 2 (37:53):
Street cred in Brooklyn, lactose intolerant, writes in Lactose in
t Or he recalls in Hello Lactose, say a little
Loraina quickly, Hey Loraina.
Speaker 3 (38:03):
The question for my for you? So I lost Ben
Mallard's mounting the money way back when, and I.
Speaker 2 (38:08):
Feel like I brought shame to the family. How can
I make my mom.
Speaker 5 (38:11):
Love me again?
Speaker 4 (38:12):
You're gonna have to play again, bring it back. Make
sure you have practiced ball.
Speaker 3 (38:17):
I don't know baseball, I don't know any sports.
Speaker 4 (38:19):
And look at me. I'm on here every day. Do better,
shoot for the stars.
Speaker 3 (38:24):
Make your MoMA proud and stay away.
Speaker 2 (38:26):
You're lactose intolerance, so the only need any of those
foods that will cause you problems there and right, spoil
your mom, right, yeah, definitely spoil your moms the greatest.
Speaker 3 (38:34):
You got to take care of your mom, right, enjoy
your mom.
Speaker 4 (38:37):
If you're lactose intoller, does that mean you have bad gas?
Speaker 3 (38:41):
I'll get I'll get a chart out and then show
you what happens if you you
He we go.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
It's our number three, our number three, the rare and appropriate,
rare and appropriate look at the track horse racing, where
do you fall on the great debate? Is the quick
turnaround from the Derby to the Preakness outdated? There's a
grassroots movement to add another week between those races, or
(00:25):
does it add to the challenge that makes the Triple
Crown special?
Speaker 3 (00:31):
We'll discuss that.
Speaker 2 (00:32):
Also talks in baseball, as the Dodgers suffering another injury,
how concerned should the Dodgers be about Tiascar Hernandez and
his injury groin injury. He'll be out for a fair
amount of time, And should the Dodgers' medical staff face
questions about the volume of injuries The Dodgers lead major
(00:52):
League Baseball with players on the injured list.
Speaker 3 (00:55):
Here in twenty twenty five, we'll talk about all that
and more. Right now here, it is our number three.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
Get this, you're listening to Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 2 (01:09):
It is just horse plates, all horse plants, all it
is welcome in the beginning of another.
Speaker 3 (01:17):
Hour of the Ben Malar Show. We are in the air.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
Emwhere as we keep talking and talking and talking and talking,
we're just touching bases. All we're doing, we're just touching bases.
We ripple through the night, coast to coast, border the
motor and beyond on the mast and wonderfully powerful microphones
of fs are emminating live from the rounds the Championship
(01:47):
rounds of verbal pugilism the Fox Sports radio studios, as
approved by Kathy and Madison and Fried Daddy in Pennsylvania.
As we roll on this portion of the Ben Mallors
made possible in part by ti Iraq.
Speaker 3 (02:02):
That's Roight, our friend. We love ti Iraq.
Speaker 2 (02:04):
For forty years, ty Iraq has been helping customers find
the right tires for how, what and where they drive.
Ship fast and free back by free road hazard protection
with convenient installation options, which Ferg Dog smiles every time
he hears that I have mobile tire installation. Mister nice
guy likes that tire iraq dot Com the way tire
(02:26):
buying should be, so we're gonna change it up. The
NBA Playoffs have been going on. We've had good games.
Normally we come in here every sports talk radio guy
comes here in the bitches about how bad the games are.
But the game has been wonderful. It's it's fun, it's good.
There's nothing to complain about. But I just don't want
to spend the entire night talking about these games. There's
another story that's right in my wheelhouse, which is rare
(02:47):
and appropriate. We're gonna talk about I don't normally talk
about the this kind of story, but this was red
meat in the talk show host den and right there.
Speaker 3 (02:56):
So we're gonna talk about the ponies. Why are you
gonna talk about the pony race? This weekend? Calm down?
Speaker 2 (03:02):
We had record setting, record setting television ratings. Who watched
the run for the Roses, which was correctly predicted by
our horse prognosticator Lorraina, who picked the winning horse in
the Kentucky Derby. But we've learned now, yes you are congratulations,
So not that you watched the racer could name any
(03:22):
hortes anyway, it was really muddy. There was a muddy,
rainy day there in Kentucky. And so we have the
second leg of the Triple Crown, which will be going
off without the Kentucky Derby winner. You see, sovereignty, The
horse that won the derby will not be racing in
the Preakedness States, which are a week from Saturday not
(03:45):
going to.
Speaker 3 (03:46):
Happen on May seventeenth. That horse will not show up.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
In fact, of the nineteen horses that ran in the
big race there in Louisville. Of the nineteen horses, only
Journal and American Promise are considering running in the Preakness.
Speaker 3 (04:05):
That's it.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
So I assume you know where I'm going with this,
but maybe not. There has been a growing drum beat,
a grassroots movement, if you will, that the Triple Crown
is outdated. They need to change the schedule. There needs
to be some tweaking, not the kind that jedu Fled likes.
I'm just some tweaking to the schedule to ensure that
(04:29):
the top horses are able to compete in the Preakness
and the Belmont, and that it's just not fair the
way it is right now.
Speaker 3 (04:38):
It's not fair.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
So the belief is by modifying the schedule and moving
the dates of the Preakness and the Belmont moving back
one week. Each race moved back one week, in theory,
you would give the horses enough time to recover from
the Kentucky Derby and then from the Preakness to run
in the Belmont, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. They
(05:00):
could run all three horses, all three horse races and
everything would be good. That all you need to do
is little extra time.
Speaker 3 (05:07):
We're good to go.
Speaker 2 (05:09):
So let us discuss. Let us discuss the question where
do you fall on the great debate? If you will,
is the quick turnaround from the Kentucky Derby to the
Preakness outdated like some naysayers are pointing out these days,
or or does it add to the challenge that makes
(05:30):
the Triple Crown a special event? So I'm going to
go with mind virus, Flowtilla and WWE, and we will
combine all of these things together, and we're going to
make some peacan pie delicious PEACMPI. For years I didn't
(05:51):
eat peacan pie, and then I had it one years
in a few years back, and what I missed out
on peacan pi. I didn't realize how good peacan pie was.
I was like, there's two things in my life that
I didn't eat for a long time. I started eating
an adult deep dish Chicago pizza and pecan pi. Love them both,
love them both, just wonderful. All right, now, let's get
(06:13):
to the question. All right, So where again where do
you fall great debate, blah blah blah blah blah, quick
turn around from the Derby to the Preakness, said to
be outdated, or does it actually add a to the challenge.
It adds to the excitement and makes the Triple Crown special. So,
first of all, the fact that we're even having this conversation,
(06:35):
the fact that this has come to my attention in
the middle of the night, here is a sign of
the times. It is a sign of times, and it's
an one of those things that you just like shake
your head at and you're like, you know, I know,
I'm getting older. I'm not as old as the Triple Crown.
The Triple Crown races started in eighteen seventy five. Okay,
(06:58):
not nineteen seventy five. Eighteen seventy five, it's one hundred
and fifty years ago. And all of a sudden, after
one hundred and fifty years of the racing is well,
maybe it's not that long. It was more like nineteen nineteen. Well, no,
it started and it became more of a bigger deal.
The first Triple Crown winner was in nineteen nineteen. But
(07:21):
the grueling schedule, it's too hard, Oh, it's so hard.
Speaker 3 (07:27):
It's part of the mystique. Okay, it's part of the mistique,
isn't it. Am I wrong?
Speaker 2 (07:32):
I'm the old guy now, it's part of the mystique.
It's supposed to be difficult, is it not? Like maybe
I was taught wrong. I mean I thought all these things,
like you got people bitching because Steph Curry's hurt for
the Warriors and you have these guys hurt for Cleveland
and basketball playoffs, like, oh, it's not right.
Speaker 3 (07:52):
That's part of the deal. Injury is part of it.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
And changing the schedule in the Triple Crown Race would
cheapen the historical significance. Much like in basketball they're like,
well we should only play sixty five games. The players
are such wusses they can't handle it, essentially what they're saying.
Speaker 3 (08:13):
But it changes everything, right, changed the whole dynamic. And
no matter.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
How low you go, there will always be people that
say that's not low enough. Meaning if you give an
extra week in the horse racing, they'll say, well, we
really need two extra weeks or three actual weeks. Just
like in basketball you say, well everyone's going to play
every game of its sixty five games.
Speaker 3 (08:33):
Bull crap.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
No, they'll just say, well, sixty five's a lot, so
we really only want to play like fifty five, and
then if you make it fifty five, they'll be, well,
fifty five's a lot. I think we have an advantage
if we only play like forty five.
Speaker 3 (08:45):
You see how it works. You see how the game works.
The horse racing thing blows me.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
Like you could say, in basketball or in you know,
different various sports, people are like, well, the athletes are complaining.
The athletes don't complain. In horse race, they don't talk.
They do not talk. The horses have never complained. They've
never complained about the.
Speaker 3 (09:07):
Races, none of them.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
But if you change the schedule, you might as well
put an asterisk if you have a Triple Crown winner.
The challenge of facing fresh horses in the Preakness is
what makes the Triple Crown a special event. I'm no
horse racing guy. I go to track a couple times
a year, and I talk about horse racing usually only
once a year. Unless there's a Triple Crown, then we'll
(09:32):
talk about it three times a year.
Speaker 3 (09:34):
That's about it.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
But what this is is the NBA mind virus of
load management has affected every other sport, every other It
started with that weasel Greg Popovich who sent a bunch
of players home on Southwest airlines in the NBA, and
it has slowly grown. And David Stern, the old commissioner
of the NBA, said this is a problem. We need
to stop this. And people laughed at David Stern, they said,
(09:58):
you're just a boomer, the old commissioner of the.
Speaker 3 (10:00):
NBA, and he's dead. But he was right.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
He was absolutely right. Try to nip it in the
bud and all that. And again, the horses do not care.
They do not care. This is a business decision. The
only reason that horses do not run in the Preakness,
in the Belmont from the Kentucky Derby is because they
are trying to preserve The people that own the horses
are trying to preserve the horse's value, and that horses
get hurt a lot, right, It's pretty crazy running these races,
(10:27):
and so the owners the reason they don't race the
horses in these other races now is because of the
fact that they're trying to keep their pile of money.
That financially, you keep the horses healthier, they have longer careers,
but more.
Speaker 3 (10:41):
Importantly a top thoroughbred horse.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
You know what happens, right, you win a big race
like the Kentucky Derby, you are set up. Sovereignty will
spend the rest of its life earning millions of dollars
by stooping other horses. Yes, they will be hanging out
to the stud fees, they call him. So anyway, all right,
(11:06):
we'll go over to baseball. I did want to rant
about that. The Dodgers announced that ti Oscar Hernandez. Dodger
manager Dave Roberts I liked him in that spot. Dave
Roberts announced that Tiascar Hernandez is headed to the We
used to call the d L, now they call the
IL because the Wolkesh's got involved in baseball. A Grade
one abductor strain. Grade one abductor strain. So what does
(11:29):
that mean? In layman's terms, that means that it's a
fancy way of saying he hurt his twigging berries, rather
than say you have a strain drawing you.
Speaker 3 (11:40):
It's a strained abductor, which is the big part of
the anatomy there. You can check that out.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
Now, how concerned here's the question, how concerned should the
Dodgers be about ti Oscar hernandez injury situation. So on
the patented Malard scale of concern one to ten, I'm
only at a six point five. I'm not that worried
about it because we're in May, the playoffs.
Speaker 3 (12:08):
Playoffs are not.
Speaker 2 (12:09):
Until October, and it's said to be a grade one
Recovery time from a grade one groinstrain typically is one
to three weeks. With baseball, you always bet the over.
You always bet the over, So that's he's gonna be
out a month. And here's the thing, though, ti Oscar Hernandez.
You look at the Dodgers, despite having the three Musketeers
(12:32):
of most valuable players in baseball with Mookie bats, Freddie
Freeman and Shoheo Tani, it has been t O who
has been the locomotive who has been leading the Dodger
due drue train. In fact, at the time of his injury,
he was unpaced it forty nine doubles, forty four home runs,
and drive in one hundred and sixty six runs on
(12:53):
pace is a weasel term. Now his season is in
suspended animation until he's able to come back from the injury,
and the Dodgers without him, will have a lack of
panache ti Oscar had brought it. They did lose somehow
to Lamarlins in extra innings, for whatever that's worth. And
so does this small problem become a bigger problem.
Speaker 3 (13:17):
For the Dodgers.
Speaker 2 (13:19):
Are they in danger of somehow missing the plus No,
they're not in danger of missing the playoffs? And all
that to major League baseball players in general are the
least tough athletes outside of the major sports leagues, right,
They're the least tough. And the Dodgers, though, have this
flotilla of extra or even without the panache of ti
(13:42):
Oscar Hernandez that they've got some other guys that have that.
Or now James Outman, what a terrible name for a
baseball player. Outman, James Outman called up again from Triple
A Oklahoma City, and he will replace ti Oscar Hernandez
in the Mighty Dodger Blue line up there, and so
he'll get the first chance. And some of these auxiliary
guys have really sucked this year for the Dodgers, mainly
(14:03):
Michael Confordo, who was hitting in the one forties one
forties uh and was on paste at nine home runs
and strike out one hundred and seventy six times for.
Speaker 3 (14:14):
The Dodgers, which I don't think is good. You know,
I don't think that's particularly good.
Speaker 2 (14:18):
All right, final thought, So should the Dodgers' medical staff
face the music, if you will, about the volume of injuries.
Speaker 3 (14:30):
So the answer on this is y es, yeah.
Speaker 2 (14:33):
I mean, obviously, the Dodgers talked a good game about
we're going to get to the bottom of this. We're
going to figure out why these guys keep getting hurt,
and they can't seem to figure it out.
Speaker 1 (14:43):
Now.
Speaker 3 (14:43):
I have my own.
Speaker 2 (14:44):
Theories, which I'll share with you in a second. But
the Dodgers led by nerd Army, and hey, it's working.
They're in the World Series every couple of years they
win the World Series. Of course, they spend the most money.
You could have no Nerds there, and you spend the
most money, they'll probably be okay. But the all high
end mighty Dodger nerd Army there, smartest guys in the room,
(15:04):
smartest guys in the room. And yet when it comes
to the injuries that are out there, the injury bug,
they are like a classic w WE wrestler hornswaggled. They
are hornswaggled by the injuries.
Speaker 3 (15:20):
How bad is it? It's so bad.
Speaker 2 (15:22):
The Dodgers are number one in baseball when it comes
to players that have been on the what we used
to call the disabled list. This year they've had sixteen
players who have been put on the DL or the
IL or all that.
Speaker 3 (15:37):
Now.
Speaker 2 (15:37):
In twenty twenty four, the Dodgers won the World Series
with a rag tag, weather beaten, broken down pitching staff.
They were third in baseball in uses of the injured
list in twenty twenty four. The Dodgers have consistently been
a top five team for years when it comes to
players being put on the injured list, and they keep
(16:00):
saying they're gonna figure it out. They're reviewing everything. Here's
the rub, though. The Dodgers spend more money than anybody.
The Dodgers coddle their players, they spoil their players, and
as a result of that, my belief is these guys
get soft. Baseball players are soft anyway. They're all making
(16:22):
ridiculous money, and it's even more insane.
Speaker 3 (16:24):
With the Dodgers.
Speaker 2 (16:25):
And it's kind of like if you have to, if
you have to go out and sing for your supper,
you're gonna make sure. Your voice is pretty good, right,
if you don't really have to sing for your supper,
You've already got your supper taking care of.
Speaker 3 (16:36):
Yeah, you want to take you in an extra time there?
Speaker 2 (16:38):
I mean I could play, but I don't really need
to play, and I out of an abundance of caution,
and we're going to put you on the injury list.
Speaker 3 (16:46):
Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah.
Speaker 2 (16:49):
It is the Ben Maler Show. If you'd like to
comment on that or anything else, you can join us

Speaker 2 (17:32):
Jaguars rookie Travis Hunter rejected his fiance's gift of a blank,
saying that he wanted a boat instead. Again, Jacksonville rookie
Travis Hunter from Colorado rejected his fiance's gift of a blank,
saying that he wanted a boat instead.
Speaker 3 (17:54):

We'll get to it. We'll do it next.

I'll get to that coming up here in a moment.
You can interact with the Live Show, the Live Show

Speaker 2 (19:07):
Lead a lap earlier, the better let's take I'll take
this anytime on ex lead a lap and now back
to it. We're gonna pay off at Mallory the other day.
I just I probably shouldn't talk about this on the air,
but I'm gonna talk about it, Okay, So do it
all right. So I've had a lot of ridiculous things
that have happened in my time here at Fox Sports Radio,
but this is one of the more ridiculous things that
(19:29):
it has taken.
Speaker 3 (19:29):
I think you'd agree, right, Loraina, Lee Flopper Gas. Yeah,
there was a there was a situation. Some people came by.
Speaker 2 (19:38):
Some a friend of the show that I've known for
many years came by and was invited them in a
very happy situation and so visited for a little bit,
very cordial like, nothing was awkward at all. Everything was fine,
and we took a photo. Normally people come in studio,
we take photos. That's normally how it goes. That's a
normal protocol. Normally those photos get posted on social media.
(19:59):
That happened, and normally no one has a problem with
it because that's just what normal people do, they post
photos on social media. But for some reason, I get
like a threatening message that government agents, government governing bodies
violation of rights.
Speaker 3 (20:20):
What all right?
Speaker 2 (20:22):
So I'm gonna delete the photo. Okay, I'm never going
to talk to the person again. I'm going to delete
the photo. I'm ready to think of in it, right,
what do you I mean?
Speaker 4 (20:29):
Yeah? Or you could just blur out their face.
Speaker 3 (20:32):
I could, that's true. I couldn't blur out face.
Speaker 2 (20:35):
Oh that's a good idea. You know what, that's a
great idea. You're so smart at social media. So I'm
gonna I'm gonna keep the photo, but I'll cover their face, okay,
that way, and then just untag them.
Speaker 3 (20:48):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (20:49):
Well I think they untagged themselves on that. So I'm
gonna go and I'll do that.
Speaker 4 (20:53):
So these threats were after you already untagged.
Speaker 3 (20:57):
I didn't they were tagged, but I guess they were
on they were untagged. There's an interesting situation for me.
Oh very good.
Speaker 2 (21:04):
There's a change, all right, So I'm gonna have to edit.
I don't think I can do this right now and
talk at the same time, so I think there's some
editing involved, and then I'll just like add a like
a smiley face type like thing here. I don't know
if I can do that, though, maybe I might have
to delete.
Speaker 4 (21:18):
You send me the photo.
Speaker 5 (21:20):
I will add the smiley face over the photo, send
it back to you, and then you can repost it.
Speaker 3 (21:25):
Okay, Oh that's a good idea. You can't get it.
Speaker 4 (21:29):
Can be petty about it, yeah, yeah, petty Ben.
Speaker 3 (21:31):
I mean this is right up there.
Speaker 2 (21:32):
I mean this is you know, when I did my website,
I got I got like a stack of cease and
desist letters, which.
Speaker 3 (21:39):
I thought was funny. You know.
Speaker 2 (21:40):
It's like there was one college of basketball coach that
was in the NCAA tournament that had three lawyers sending
me messages threatening my existence and it was wonderful.
Speaker 4 (21:50):
Anyway, when you were in your sports.
Speaker 2 (21:53):
What's it called the blogs fear, Yes, I was in
the blogsphere.
Speaker 3 (21:57):
It was one of the early bloggers back in the
day before a social.
Speaker 4 (22:00):
Media I mean trash talker.
Speaker 2 (22:02):
No, no, I just like a gossip website thing, all right. Anyway,

Speaker 4 (24:08):
Answer, blue suede shoes.
Speaker 2 (24:10):

Speaker 3 (24:19):
Oh my gosh, I don't get the watch thing.
Speaker 2 (24:27):
Pat O'Brien when he worked here, Pob was a big
sportscaster at CBS. He had Yeah, he had a lot
of money. And I did some shows with Pat and
I love Pat was you know, he busted my chops
and we had a good time. But Pat he looked.
One time I was in doing a show with him
and I had no watch on, and whatever, he is,
you need a watch, and so I'll get your watch
(24:50):
and he went out. He had a plastic bag filled
with like high end watches that were just fit like
tons of just pick something you want.
Speaker 3 (24:59):
Gave me what?
Speaker 4 (25:00):
Yeh got a bag of watches.
Speaker 3 (25:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (25:03):
I don't think they were like roll exes, but they
were like high end watching, like nice one designer watches.
Speaker 3 (25:07):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (25:08):
Yeah, so I took one. He said, you just got
to get battery for it. The batteries are dead, but
you're good.
Speaker 3 (25:12):
So I guess he wore them until they wore the
battery died, and.
Speaker 4 (25:14):
Then he's getting well, who really collect watches.
Speaker 5 (25:16):
I was at a watch shop the other day and
this man, I thought he already got three of them fixed.
Speaker 4 (25:21):
He kept pulling more out of his pockets.
Speaker 3 (25:23):
Oh really, yeah, just watch people like shoe people. You know,

Speaker 3 (26:24):
All Right, anyway, what do we have you Let's see
any Meenie money Moe. Should we play the game? I
think we should play the game. What do you think
hit that? If it's time, I believe it is time
to play the game, Ben Maller game. We've endured too
many of these? Is it too much or not enough?
All right, let's play too much or not enough. We
have Daniel in Michigan who's going to play.
Speaker 2 (26:43):
Hello, Daniel, welcome, Hey, he.
Speaker 3 (26:48):
First time caller, unbelieva. What are the odds? What are
the odds? There are actually other people listening that are
first time callers. Amazing? And what part of Michigan are
you in there? Daniel?
Speaker 1 (26:58):
Uh in Michigan, little town near Greenville, Brand Rapids area.
Speaker 2 (27:02):
I go, okay, all right, very cool. I have some
family up in the Upper Peninsula there in Michigan.
Speaker 3 (27:08):
So wait, truck.
Speaker 1 (27:10):
I just got back from Indiana.
Speaker 3 (27:12):
Okay, very cool? All right, Well, good luck to you here.
Speaker 2 (27:15):
And all you have to do is get three questions, right, Daniel,
drive in the tow truck and we always start out
with question number one. Now, remember the great thing about
this game, Daniel. There's a guy named Hollering James who
won this game. Waal fast asleep one of the great
moments in the history of the show. Waal fast asleep,
he won, He won the game. So that's just wild,
(27:36):
absolutely wild.
Speaker 3 (27:37):
Anyway.
Speaker 2 (27:38):
Question number one, only four teams have come back from
seven or more points down in the final minute of
playoff games in the play by play era.
Speaker 3 (27:47):
Is that too much or not enough.
Speaker 2 (27:52):
Enough?
Speaker 3 (27:53):
You say not enough?
Speaker 2 (27:54):
Is that right? Let's find out. No, it's actually too
much and it's the numbers three. The Warriors swept the
Blazers thanks to an overtime Game four to reach the
fifth straight NBA Finals.
Speaker 3 (28:07):
But the answer is is three. The answers three?
Speaker 1 (28:11):
All right?
Speaker 3 (28:12):
Question number two? Six teams, six teams.
Speaker 2 (28:18):
Yeah, the Pacers are Pacers over the Calves and the Pacers, Yeah,
Pacers of the Calves, Pacers over the Bucks, Warriors over
the Blazers, and the unfortunately the Thunder over the Clippers.
We're trying to forget that, but that was we made
one of those up. Anyway, all right?
Speaker 3 (28:31):
Question number two.
Speaker 2 (28:33):
Six teams set to unveil new helmets, including the Steelers, Chargers, Brown, Steelers, Saints,
and Bucks in the the new alternative uniforms of the NFL.
Is that too much or not enough?
Speaker 4 (28:48):
Too much.
Speaker 2 (28:50):
That is correct, All right, good cheat by you. The
Buccaneers will have no new alternative this season. Well, they've
got that Bucko Bruce one. They don't need anything other
than that. Right, that's the greatest.
Speaker 3 (29:05):
I like the Lions black uniform. You enjoyed that. Yeah,
but what about the Bucko Bruce.
Speaker 2 (29:09):
Well you're in Michigan though, But the Bucko Bruce with
the knife and the they ripped off.
Speaker 3 (29:13):
Robin hood and they made it a logo.
Speaker 2 (29:16):
All right, Question number three for our friend Daniel driving
a tow truck.
Speaker 3 (29:21):
He's back in Michigan.
Speaker 2 (29:23):
Jacob de Gram made a Major League Baseball history as
the Rangers pitcher, becoming the fastest in the modern era
to sixteen hundred career strikeouts? Is that too much.
Speaker 3 (29:35):
Or not enough?
Speaker 4 (29:39):
Not enough?
Speaker 3 (29:40):
Let's find out that is correct.
Speaker 2 (29:42):
Seventeen seventeen hundred strikeouts and the Gram is just the
thirteenth active pitcher to reach that milestone, not seventeen thousand.
Speaker 3 (29:50):
That would be impressive. Yeah, that would be.
Speaker 2 (29:52):
That would be that would be impressive. What you did
is you did coop map on that. That's what we
call coop map on that. Yeah, all right, too right?
One more right, answer. You win the game, Dan, you'll
get You'll get yourself a golden ticket. Here we go,
Question number four.
Speaker 3 (30:06):
Here we go.
Speaker 2 (30:07):
The San Francisco Giants began playing in eighteen eighty three.
There are ten runs in the eleventh inning in the
game that was played on Tuesday night, were the most
in an extra inning game in franchise history.
Speaker 3 (30:26):
Is that too much or not enough?
Speaker 4 (30:29):
Too much?
Speaker 3 (30:31):
Okay, let's find out this is for the win that.
Speaker 2 (30:34):
Time the game.

Speaker 3 (33:19):
Hump Okay, yeah? Is I really? I thought it meant

Speaker 1 (33:23):
I didn't.
Speaker 4 (33:24):
I didn't realize any day this week you might as
well do.
Speaker 3 (33:27):
Today's the day.
Speaker 4 (33:28):
Today's the day.
Speaker 3 (33:30):

Speaker 2 (33:31):
I didn't realize it meant that you're supposed to stoop
I didn't realize that.
Speaker 4 (33:34):
I didn't know that was a stupid day.
Speaker 2 (33:37):
It's a day designed for the stoopid. Okay, very nice,
and you were here to answer all the questions any
of them, many of them. People have questions, BP writes
in hashtag Queen of Hearts on x BP says, best
place to go on a first date besides dinner?
Speaker 3 (33:54):
Besides dinner? All right, very important? Where do you go
on a first day? Where do you want?
Speaker 5 (33:59):
Well, you know, it's good to be original, and they
used to have that dating show right where you would
go on like five different first dates, and that would
give some really good ideas.
Speaker 4 (34:07):
You could go golf.
Speaker 5 (34:08):
Karting, you could go mini golfing, you could go skydiving,
you could I don't even you could just take her
shopping for the first time.
Speaker 4 (34:16):
Don't just go to dinner.
Speaker 5 (34:17):
Obviously, feed the girl because they want to be fed
all the time. They're going to be in a better
mood if you feed them first.
Speaker 3 (34:24):
So food is the key that you go to the heart,
you go through the stomach.
Speaker 4 (34:31):
Is that exactly? Almost like almost like a man, but
a little bit.
Speaker 5 (34:34):
Different, a little bit okay, yeah, all right, but always
include food and your shenanigans.
Speaker 3 (34:40):
So I want to go back to that.
Speaker 2 (34:41):
This is not a question from a listener, but we
had a story earlier. Aaron Rodgers was spotted at the
Kentucky Derby. It looked like he had a wedding ring
on wedding, but people don't think he got married. Some
people think it's some kind of social experiment like the
Seinfeld show back in the day. So, Lorena, can you
explain the positives and the negatives of not being married
(35:02):
but wearing a wedding ring?
Speaker 1 (35:04):
Right?
Speaker 4 (35:04):
So, a lot of people do it as a deterrent
so that people don't try to hit on them.
Speaker 3 (35:08):
That would be the women.
Speaker 4 (35:10):
Yes, women usually do that, not men.
Speaker 1 (35:13):
Men.
Speaker 5 (35:14):
Men usually take off their wedding rings. I mean, maybe
I'm just you know, I've seen a lot of movies
and that's what happens. But I tend to see men
taking them off, not putting on fake ones. So yeah,
that is a little odd that he would do that. Yeah,
and like you said, everyone knows he's not married as.
Speaker 3 (35:30):
Far as we know. Maybe he got like a secret
he got.
Speaker 4 (35:33):
A ring that only fits on that one specific finger.
Speaker 3 (35:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (35:38):
Maybe, hmmm. Where do you think he got the ring?
You think about it like a pawn shop or something
like that, or maybe maybe yeah, hmm, interesting, Maybe it's
a promise ring. Maybe he's marrying an alien from another
part of the You see that story this week. There's
like three alien bases on Earth, according to the story.
Oh stop it, Yeah, Alaska, somewhere in south of Erica.
Speaker 3 (36:00):
Yeah, they're living a.
Speaker 4 (36:01):
Month, one in the middle of the ocean, right, they're supposedly.
Speaker 2 (36:03):
One in the ocean. Yeah, fg Dog, you're not a believer.
Bad job by you, ferg Dog writes and says Queen Hearts.
Is it okay to break up with someone because they
have really bad gas?
Speaker 4 (36:16):
Yes?
Speaker 5 (36:16):
If you cannot stand the way they smell all the time, Lee,
then yes, you can totally break up with someone over that.
Speaker 3 (36:24):
Yeah, or just have them eat different foods because you
depends what you say.
Speaker 4 (36:28):
People do not want to be told what to eat.
Speaker 5 (36:31):
Really, they don't want to change their lifestyles at all
if they're not gonna Yeah, no, all.
Speaker 3 (36:34):
Right, I believe Hollering James has a question for you. Hello,
hollering James. You have a question, Hollering James.
Speaker 4 (36:42):

Speaker 5 (36:43):

Speaker 3 (36:44):
I'm sorry I got your name wrong the first time.
Speaker 4 (36:47):
That's okay, man, what's up?
Speaker 3 (36:48):
You know?
Speaker 2 (36:49):
My question is it is very important.
Speaker 1 (36:50):
They're better to love and lost than never loved.
Speaker 5 (36:54):
At all, well, I fall in love like seven times
a week, so I would definitely say to love and
lose is better than to never love it all. Imagine
being a lower and never loving anyone. Oh no, no,
I didn't say making love everyone.
Speaker 3 (37:11):
What about your manners?
Speaker 1 (37:13):
James?
Speaker 3 (37:13):
My god? I go, I thank you, you're not. Let's
go to what a question? Myke guy?
Speaker 2 (37:20):
Mike the Leprechaun writes in he says, what would you do,
Lorena if the uber driver was hitting on you even
with your boyfriend in the car?
Speaker 3 (37:28):
Interesting?
Speaker 5 (37:29):
Why would the uber driver be hitting on me when
my boyfriend's in the car? If the uber driver is dropping.
Speaker 4 (37:34):
Off my food?
Speaker 3 (37:35):
I have no idea. I don't know. He just brought
that question. JT.
Speaker 2 (37:38):
The Wingman says, to make myself look like a better
catch on a trip to the East Coast, should I
introduce her to Marcel or to the Leprechaun?
Speaker 4 (37:50):
Ah, Marcel for sure?
