Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello and welcome.

Speaker 2 (00:02):
It's our number four and a happy Tuesday to you,
a day we've all been looking forward to, the fifth
day of November. A random Tuesday in early November, and
we say bye bye to an NFL head coach. Dennis
Allen was whacked as coach in New Orleans. Does that
make sense? Also, how would you rate the Saints head

(00:24):
coaching job? It's available if you want it. And what
is your take on DJ Moore giving up the middle
of a play. On the middle of a play, rather
giving up for the Bears, he walked off the field
wild video from the NFL Weekend. He also gave a
tepid comment about the coach in Chicago. We'll talk about
all that and more right now. Have a wonderful Tuesday.

(00:47):
And here it is our number four, the bye you,
bye bye welcome. In the beginning of another hour of
the show.

Speaker 3 (01:00):
We are in the air em rewhere head on as
we are radio war daddies, unless we're not coast to coast,
bort to Moter and beyond on the mast and ferociously
powerful microphones of fsr.

Speaker 2 (01:22):
M monating live from the polls. The only poll that
counts is on election day. Unless it's not. We're broadcasting
live from the tyraq dot com studios tyraqt dot com.
We'll help you get there an unmatched selection, fast, free shipping,
free road hazard protection at over ten thousand recommended installers

(01:44):
tiraq dot com. The Way tire buying should be. That's
from Larry Dean. I just want you to know I
am sacrificing a donut because I believe Lee is going
to take a donut that I want, and I'm going
to lose out on a donut by doing this monologue.
But I'm dedicating my love of you, the lister losing

(02:04):
the delicious doughnut, which I'm okay with Donut Darren, the
donut benefactor. But our lead this hour is from the
Cajun State. That is where the coaching carousel started spinning.

Speaker 1 (02:17):
Round and round and round and round.

Speaker 2 (02:19):
Now I actually started on Sunday the Raiders whacked their
offensive coordinator, but early on Monday. If you have not
heard now we're into Tuesday, maybe you missed it. Dennis Allen,
Dennis the Menace, has been ejected from the coaching room. There,
Dennis Allen has become the second coach to be whacked

(02:40):
this NFL season, in a move that became inevitable less
than twenty four hours after being emasculated in a loss
to the NFL's worst team the last couple of years.
That would be the Carolina Panthers, who were the worst
team in the NFL prior to that game. So he's
out special teams coordinator someone named Darren Rizzy. They got

(03:04):
the Rizzi. Darren Rizzy will take over as the interim coach.
Rizzy said the team would reevaluate everything after losing seven
straight games, like they weren't already doing that, So what
changes are coming?

Speaker 1 (03:15):
Here's what we know. The new interim coach.

Speaker 2 (03:18):
Rizzy said that the coordinator, Joe Woods will call the
defensive players like that will matter, and he said Allen
had been the de facto play call the defensive coordinator.

Speaker 1 (03:30):
That worked out well.

Speaker 2 (03:31):
Derek Carr will remain the starting quarterback because that's also
working out very well. So let us discuss the question
Dennis Allen whacked as the coach in New Orleans? Does
this make sense? So I've got Sammy Hagar, jigsaw puzzle
and insubordination, and we will combine all of these things

(03:54):
together and we are going to make the Baba ganoosh
is what we're going to make. So to kick off here,
Dennis Allen confirmed that every once and again, the fan
is right. We often hear from these people in sports
that the fan doesn't know what they're talking about, and
listen quite a bit.

Speaker 1 (04:15):
They're right.

Speaker 2 (04:16):
The people that are just consumers of the product don't
really know what goes into the product. But this is
an example, a shining example, that you the fan. Every
once in a while you nail it. And this is
one I remember when Dennis Allen was elevated to the
head coaching position and just about every man, woman and

(04:39):
child at the time was scratching their head. This dufus
is a head coach again in the NFL. Did people
not watch the Oakland Raiders? Why would you ever promote
Dennis Allen to be the head coach? Have you lost
your bloody mind? You bloody roue?

Speaker 1 (04:54):
As they say in Australia.

Speaker 2 (04:56):
It was a weak move at the very beginning by
the Saints and Sean Payton had vacated the post he
was done in New Orleans, but rather than hire someone qualified,
they decided, you know what, we want Sprinkles the clown
to be our head coach and that's what they got.
And as Sammy Hagar krooned, you get what you pay for.

(05:18):
The Saints hired a stiff as a coach, and they
got a stiff as a coach. And I will say
this for Dennis Allen, no false advertising. We knew he
couldn't coach as a head coach, and he proved again.
He doubled down. And for all the talk, Mickey Loomis
and the other big shots in New Orleans were like, well,
Bill Belichick sucked the first time as he was a coach,
and just give more time. It's not as well, don't

(05:40):
judge him by wins and losses. Okay, okay, Well, I
guess someone judged him by wins and losses. That is
a poorly coached team, often overwhelmed, overwhelmed the Saints. They're consistent.
They stink on both sides of the ball. They've all
got cooties any anyway, The offense has racked up eleven touchdowns.

(06:04):
The first two games of the year, they had eleven touchdowns.
They have scored eleven touchdowns since the first two games
the year. The last seven they have eleven touchdowns. The
defense is number twenty eight in the NFL, twenty eight
out of thirty two teams. They're allowing twenty eight point
six points per game. Now, I never played in the NFL.
All I do is host an overnight show. But that sucks,

(06:26):
and they ranked last in yards per play. I got
plenty of numbers here per rush and per game. Now
that said, I do love the common denominator. Now what
is the common denominator? Dennis Allen, who in many ways
is responsible for the demise of the Oakland Raiders because

(06:47):
he oversaw some absolute crap bag Raider teams and then
eventually that led to the relocation of the Raiders to
Sin City.

Speaker 1 (06:55):
But his quarterback in Oakland was who ding Ding Ding
ding Ding. He's the common denominator.

Speaker 2 (07:02):
The coach Keller, the coach Keller from Fresno State, Derek
Carr getting Dennis Allen fired twice. It's like in my business,
if you're a program director of radio station and you
have a talk show host who's so bad, so terrible,
he gets you fired. You then get another job in
another city as a carpetbagger, and you bring in that

(07:24):
same talk show host and he gets you fired. Also,
that's essentially what has happened now. Furthermore, you are the headhunter.
You are in charge. Your job is to find candidates
for the New Orleans job. How would you rate the
New Orleans Saints head coaching job?

Speaker 1 (07:44):
So, after a.

Speaker 2 (07:44):
Minutes long mallor review, it is a C job. It's
not an A job. It's not a B job, not
a D job, not enough job. Now a lot of
people say it's a D job or enough job. But
I can't go lower than a C minus. And here's why.
It's pretty simple. You make a ridiculous amount of money

(08:05):
if you're a head coach in the NFL. Okay, the
NFL is the only game in town in the Bayo.
There's no other professional sports other than basketball, but nobody
watches that. So it's only the New Orleans Saints that matter.
Basketball team doesn't matter. They're named the Pelicans. How can
you really take any team named the Pelicans?

Speaker 1 (08:23):
Series?

Speaker 2 (08:24):
But the Saints make your same joke about that. But
they've been there a long time, they won a Super
Bowl and all that. There's a love affair. The roster sucks,
The salary cap situation is not ideal. The Saints are
a jigsaw puzzle that is missing several pieces that you

(08:45):
will never find because your dog ate them.

Speaker 1 (08:48):
That is the Saints. But I'm a salary cap truther.

Speaker 2 (08:51):
You can work it out, and I guarantee you the
Saints will have a roster filled with the full allotment
of players.

Speaker 1 (08:58):
They're not going to.

Speaker 2 (08:59):
Play with ten players on the field rather than eleven
to save money. They will have a full roster. Now,
you gotta find some diamonds in the rough. You gotta
go out and find some diamonds.

Speaker 1 (09:07):
In the rough.

Speaker 2 (09:08):
And that's hard, but it's possible to do it. The
Rams were said to be dead after they won the
Super Bowl, and they found some diamonds in the rough.
Puka Nakua for example. Diamond in the rough, pretty good player.
A couple other guys they found that nobody thought would
be all that good middle rounds and they've turned out
to be pretty productive players. And the Rams are in

(09:30):
contention for a playoff spot in the NFC West. But
the Saints as a whole, it's like a bowl of
gumbo and then it's covered in fungus, and they'll figure
it out. You'd just roll up your sleeves. You hire
somebody that knows a thing or two about player development.
I just give you a list of names on who

(09:51):
they're gonna hire. It's just gonna be somebody that's either
coached for let's see here, Sean McVay or Kyle Shanahan, one.

Speaker 1 (10:00):
Of those two.

Speaker 2 (10:00):
Somebody from the McVeigh tree or the Shanahan tree. More
likely than not. Now, they could always go unorthodox and
hire like Vrabel, the old Titans coach, but unlikely. Unlikely
it's some analytically driven whiz kid will be the head coach.

Speaker 1 (10:17):
Now.

Speaker 2 (10:17):
Last thing trouble is a bruin in Sweet Home Chicago.
We talked about yesterday the lack of development for Caleb Williams,
who's not plateaued. He's getting worse as the Bears forever quarterback. Well,
how about this wide receiver, DJ Moore, the great DJ

(10:38):
Moore of Carolina Fame back in the day b DJ
Moore with the Bears. Now he walked off the sidelines
in the middle of a play. Now, I was unaware
of this. On Sunday.

Speaker 1 (10:49):
I try to watch everything, but you can't get everything.

Speaker 2 (10:52):
But the video has gone viral here in the day
after the NFL card was played, so I'll describe it
for the those of you that are blind or haven't
seen the video. So the playing question was in the
first half, DJ Moore just gave up. He walked off
the sidelines in the middle of the play. Caleb Williams
was still scrambling around with the ball. In the first half.

(11:14):
Chicago had gone to lose a non competitive game. Didn't
show up. They were a wall against the Cardinals. Now,
Moore was asked on a radio interview on the score
in Chicago.

Speaker 1 (11:27):
We used to be on the score. We get kicked
off that because of Doc Mike.

Speaker 2 (11:30):
But anyway, so he was asked on the local radio
station there if coach Matt Eberfluse had lost the team.

Speaker 1 (11:41):
And I don't know.

Speaker 2 (11:42):
We have this, we have this all right. Well listen,
let's just play the beginning of this, but listen closely.
This is this is a no brainer question. There's only
one answer to.

Speaker 4 (11:51):
This, right.

Speaker 1 (11:51):
But well, he didn't say the thing he was supposed
to say. That's take a list.

Speaker 5 (11:55):
Wonder from the outside, has Matt Eberflus lost his football team?
So I'll ask you, has Matt Everfluch lost his football team?

Speaker 6 (12:03):
I don't want to say no.

Speaker 2 (12:07):
It sounded like he said, I don't want to say no,
or I want to say no.

Speaker 1 (12:12):
Let's play it again.

Speaker 5 (12:14):
To ask you, has Matt Everfluse lost his football team?

Speaker 4 (12:19):
I want to say no?

Speaker 2 (12:22):
Speeper were saying, he said, I want to say no.
It's it sounded like I don't.

Speaker 1 (12:27):
Want to say it. Definitely sounds like you said I
don't want to say no.

Speaker 2 (12:30):
So he that he's am I correcting my hypothesis. He's
confirming that he doesn't want to say no because the
coach has lost the team.

Speaker 1 (12:40):
Well, would that be what he's saying? How else will
you interpret that?

Speaker 7 (12:44):
I feel like the NFL players in general have had
a history of double negatives and not really understanding.

Speaker 2 (12:49):
Are you saying he's stupid? Is that what you're saying
He's a moron?

Speaker 4 (12:52):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (12:53):
I'm giving him the band for the doubt he's He
was asked a question. The question was play it again?
Play it again?

Speaker 2 (12:59):
He was He was asked the question twice. He gave
the answer, He's an adult. I assume he knows what
he's talking about, playing again, playing again.

Speaker 5 (13:07):
Wonder from the outside, has Matt Eberflus lost his football team?

Speaker 1 (13:11):
To ask you.

Speaker 5 (13:11):
Has Matt Eberflus lost his football team?

Speaker 4 (13:15):
I don't want to say no.

Speaker 2 (13:18):
Also, is he with his cat? Didn't it sound like
a kiddie can? Did that sound like there was a
there's a lot going on, there's.

Speaker 5 (13:25):
A lot outside. Has Matt Eberflus lost his football team?

Speaker 2 (13:29):
Yeah, there's a cat. There's a Kendy ca that's a cat.
That's a cat. Play it again, Play it.

Speaker 5 (13:35):
Again from the outside. Has Matt Eberflus lost his football team?

Speaker 8 (13:39):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (13:39):
My god, it's a cat. Maybe he's getting mulled by
a cat. That's why he said it. Oh so good.

Speaker 2 (13:49):
When I did a daytime show, believe it or not,
before I became a mister Overnight guy, and I used
to have to do those horrible those interviews are so bad.

Speaker 1 (13:56):
My god, daytime radio.

Speaker 2 (13:57):
Interviews suck, but I have to adead of those guys
on and the athletes were the worst. They never wanted
to do it and they were always distracted. My favorite
one of all time there was a guy named Derek
Bell I believe is his name. He was an outfielder
and we interviewed him and he was at his hotel

(14:18):
and I'll never forget it. Like he said, Hey, there's
somebody at the door. Give me a second. I heard
a female voice. He put us on hold. He never
came back to the phone.

Speaker 1 (14:27):
He just left us at all though.

Speaker 2 (14:28):
That was great anyway, as far as this is concerned,
what is your take on DJ Moore not only giving
up on the middle of a play for the Bears,
but then asked if coach Matt eberflussis lost the team said,
I don't want to say no.

Speaker 1 (14:43):
All right, so this is a fireable offense. It is.

Speaker 2 (14:47):
For a normal employee, this would be a fireble offense.
Dereliction of duties. It is right. This is not just
poor performance, it's insubordination. I don't want to say no
on the coach. Losing the team is next level. That's
a that's a softball question. So I can't say that,

(15:07):
I listen, I support the coach. Blah blah blah blah blah.

Speaker 1 (15:10):
That's high crimes and misdemeanors.

Speaker 2 (15:12):
It is now because of the contract, we realize the
trade deadlines. Today this afternoon, when I wake up, I'll
look at all the trades. I'll be sleeping. But the
Bears are not going to trade him. They just gave
him a new content. But this is a tinderbox. Matt
Eberflus disaster right, doesn't know what he's doing quarterbacks, regressing

(15:33):
offensive coiaters, sucks, DJ mores, quitting on plays. It is
a highly combustible situation. Now, I'm telling you, if the
Bears do the impossible, if they somehow go out this
weekend loose to the Patriots, then Matt Ebraflus has to
be fired. I know the owner of the Bears is
like one hundred and thirty, but they still have to
fire Matt Eberflus. It is the Bean Maeler Show You

Let's go any meaning I think I do here, we go.
Let's say hello to h we have the Angry Bill.
Now Angry Bill balances things out here. Hello angry Bill.

Speaker 11 (22:02):
Well, how you doing Finally, Ben, it's nice to talk
to you.

Speaker 1 (22:06):
It's great to talk to you, Angry Bill.

Speaker 11 (22:08):
It was. I want to finish up with the World Series.
As we know, the bullpen game won the game for
the Dodgers.

Speaker 2 (22:18):
Actually lost that game. That's the only game they lost
was the bullpen game.

Speaker 11 (22:22):
No, No, the last game, Ben.

Speaker 2 (22:24):
They lost the the the actual game they designed to
be a bullpen game.

Speaker 11 (22:28):
They lost design.

Speaker 1 (22:30):
There's no design there is.

Speaker 2 (22:32):
I know you're not that I know you're not that smart,
but that was actually designed that way.

Speaker 11 (22:36):
We want to talk about smart with baseball, was you, Ben?
Now what about your great great cy Young Award winner Cole?
Tell me about him? You want to.

Speaker 2 (22:44):
Yeah, one hundred and forty four million dollars, That's what
I'm gonna tell you about one hundred and forty five.

Speaker 11 (22:50):
I found out the deep secret on why he didn't
cover first base. He didn't cover first base because they
didn't put extra money in his contract. He didn't know yet.

Speaker 2 (22:59):
Well that first actually, see we can agree. You're probably
right on that if they had put a pile of
money at first base, he.

Speaker 1 (23:05):
Would have hustled the first base. That's the problem.

Speaker 2 (23:07):
They should have They should have put they should have
gold plated first base, and then Cole would have run
over there to cover the bag.

Speaker 11 (23:17):
I'm glad no.

Speaker 2 (23:21):
But you know, he's so this is so funny about
Garrett Cole, so like he's like, well, the Yankees will
give me an extra thirty six million, and the Yankees
called this bluff, and he's so paranoid, he's so worried
about not playing for the Yankees that he agreed to
stay with the Yankees. That'll give more money eventually, but
for now they're not giving him more money.

Speaker 1 (23:37):
I'm actually glad you got this.

Speaker 11 (23:38):
I told you.

Speaker 1 (23:40):
He's gonna get more money eventually. Yes, cool, I'm glad
you guys brought this this up because.

Speaker 7 (23:45):
Never ever, so I know, Garrett Cole should have covered
first base obviously, thank you, Lorena.

Speaker 1 (23:57):
But would you like Rizzo would have got him out
as well? Right, Rizzo's a slow He should be a
dh Rizzo.

Speaker 7 (24:05):
Like if he charged the ball and ran over the
first base, he would have beat him to the bag.

Speaker 2 (24:10):
No, it would have been bang bang. Mookie was hustling
because the Dodgers know the Yankees. They knew going to
as Joe Kelly said, he said the quiet part outline.
Joe Kelly said, the Dodgers knew that the Yankees are
a bad defensive team. They don't hustle. They got a
bunch of dogs, and so that's how they approached it.
And and that fifth inning that was the masterpiece. That
was the Mona Lisa for the Dodgers, and that fifth

(24:32):
inning of the game where they won the World Series.
All right, are you done?

Speaker 1 (24:36):
Angry bills at it? You have nothing else that you're
out of material? Is that all? Yeah? I got all
right here on that would be a sign he's out
of materia.

at the World Series. Hello Andrea, Hello, how are you?
If I was any better? I don't think I could
be better. I got tons of food here, I got
some shirts. That's got Michael and Rhode Island hooked us
up big time. There, so very nice, sick of that,

(25:31):
very cool.

Speaker 12 (25:32):
Yes, cars like they're good food and uh good clothes.

Speaker 2 (25:36):
So thanks thanks to Michael. I'm not pulling my favorite
high school football team.

Speaker 1 (25:40):
This is his kid EJ. Left guard.

Speaker 2 (25:43):
By the way, Andrea, this this kid Michael, his kid EJ,
left guard, starting left guard for Bishop Hendrickton Hendrick and Chicken.

Speaker 1 (25:54):
I said chicken. I think I said, yeah you did.
Maybe I'm thinking about chicken. But that's the see that's
school right now. I'm holding up there. Oh yes, it
does say hydro chickens. No, it doesn't say hydra chickens.

Speaker 2 (26:08):
It is an h it's Hendricken hen Dricken like Ken Drincken,
like chicken, right am, I correct?

Speaker 1 (26:15):
Yeah, the hen Drincken Chickens. I hope that's what their
names are. Anyway, you didn't call about that, Andrew. How
can we help?

Speaker 2 (26:20):
Oh?

Speaker 12 (26:21):
No, I just wanted to share some insights. I agree
with what you were saying about the Yankees' meltdown in
the fifth inning. I'll tell you, I've seen a lot
of baseball in my day, and that was really, really incredible.

Speaker 2 (26:34):
And uh, you know what reminded me of the remember
the Cubs and Marlins and the NLCS when things completely
went upside down.

Speaker 1 (26:43):
That was the Steve Bartman game. But it wasn't.

Speaker 2 (26:46):
But it wasn't just the Bartman play. There were a
bunch of other plays the Cubs butchered in that game.
But people only remember the Bartman play. But I remember
correctly there were some other other plays they butchered.

Speaker 12 (26:56):
Yeah, well, the Yankees butchered like five. It was the
beginning of the And with Aaron Judge, he well, yeah,
was Tommy Edmund the line drive and has played that.
And then Cole Fellow Virgo believe me, he's, you know,
beating himself up left and right. He's September eighth, nineteen

(27:17):
ninety and Virgos have really high standards and they can
be really critical and hard on themselves. And he just
spaced out. I mean pictures fielding practice, right, PfP. That's like,
you know, basic stuff they teach you in spring training
and beyond.

Speaker 1 (27:33):
Yeah, well he must have been busy that day.

Speaker 2 (27:34):
He was meeting with his financial planner that day, so
you couldn't cover first base, I guess, and all that.

Speaker 12 (27:40):
Having some Saturn transits. I wanted to shed some astrologicals.

Speaker 2 (27:44):
Sping of Saturn transits. The Athletics are having a transit
to Sacramento. How stupid is it? They will not use
the name Sacramento are They're so embarrassed. I'm embarrassed for
them just to say you're the Sacramento Athletics for a
couple of years. It's not going to kill you. You'll
sell Actually a lot of jerseys. The people that live
in that areial by jerseys and then go on to Vegas.

Speaker 1 (28:03):
Why is this so hard? They're idiots?

Speaker 12 (28:06):
I know, it's so sad. Ben I have to look
at their chart. I mean, it's like whatever they say
and do, it's like the wrong thing at the wrong
time and alienates what's left of their fan base. And
I heard that obviously I'm in the Bay Area. It's like, wait,
what you know? They just chancer.

Speaker 1 (28:23):
They're going to be there for likely three or four
years at the minimum.

Speaker 2 (28:28):
Right at the minimum, So you can't say you're the
Sacramento A's for three or four years.

Speaker 1 (28:32):
God forbidding me struck by lightning.

Speaker 12 (28:35):
Yeah, I mean, it's the only reason they're playing in
Sacramento waiting for the Las Vegas Ballpark, and you know
they'll be in Sutter Health Park. I don't know what
the problem is with just not being the Sacramento A's,
but you know, be that as it may. You know,
it's just another challenge that they seem to be efficiently

(28:58):
dropping Oakland from their AI, which is just alienating even more.
What slept to the fan beast?

Speaker 1 (29:04):
Yeah, no, for sure. All right, Andrew, thank you. I
know we'll talk soon.

Speaker 2 (29:08):
I have a wonderful day and enjoy care.

Speaker 1 (29:12):
Goes our friend Andrea checking him.

Speaker 2 (29:15):
So I've done some opposition researcher on Bishop Hendrick in
high school. It's in Warwick, Rhode Island, and the famous alumni,
the most famous alumni is the current manager of the
Minnesota Twins, Rock Gobald Delhi is the manager and he
went there. Will Blackman, I've heard that name Will Blackman

(29:37):
right back in the I think play anymore. But he
played played for a number of years in the NFL.
We'll safety will Blackman. Remember that name? A pitcher for
the patter Michael King, who pitched pretty well for the Padres,
went to that high school. So you say, I just
did say. And I guess Joel Missoula would be the

(29:57):
biggest name. Joe Missoula, the head coach of the Celtics.
How did I bury the lead?

Speaker 1 (30:01):
My man? You bury the lead?

Speaker 2 (30:03):
