the NFL. And what a dot of a knight at
absolute DoD of a knight. We had last night doubleheader
(03:02):
action Monday night football no show by the Cincinnati Bengals.
How bad was it? It was so bad that Jamar
Chase after the game said it didn't look like the
Bengals wanted it. Thank you, Captain Obvious. And you had
the Jets one of three winless teams and they played
a winless Dolphin team and they're still winless and mostly
(03:24):
non competitive performance by the Jets. And despite the fact
that media loves Aaron Glenn, they love the positivity, the
results are not there. And Aaron Glenn heard screaming and
banging on the wall in the Jets locker room after
they played more pathetic football against the Dolphins, who lost
Tyreek Hill for the season and possibly for the career
(03:45):
as his leg was twisted into bits by the tackle
or lack thereof of tackling against the Jets. But our
lead this hour from Philadelphia. The Eagles are four and zero.
Fly Eagles Fly on the road to bor ring football.
There four and zero and there's some internal drama. Now,
(04:08):
this is a follow up, follow up to some conversation
we had in a previous episode of the show. The
follow up is about Nick Sirianni, who has now entered
the chat. Sirianni was asked about AJ Brown. We talked
about this in a previous episode, a cryptic social media
post following the game on Sunday, and Sirianni said he
(04:29):
believes that AJ Brown wants to remain in Philadelphia. All right, now,
we'll play a little bit of it. I'll see if
we'll play the whole thing. We'll see if I'm entertained
by this or not. This is Nick Sirianni, the man
that famously would challenge players that wanted to be drafted
by the Eagles to rock paper scissors. Here's Nick Sirianni
(04:49):
his take on Aj Brown. Take a listen. Is it
your understanding that Aj still wants to be here?
Speaker 2 (04:56):
Yeah, obviously Aj is very important to this football team.
I know he wants to contribute and you know, do
the things that he's capable of doing. And yeah, I
mean so again, he wants to contribute into these wins,
and he's had a couple of games where he hasn't
been able to for different reasons of why we haven't
(05:19):
in these games. So I question nothing about his desire
to play great football's desire of being a good teammate.
I'm his desire to be here.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
He's just going through the bullet points at that particular point. Now,
bron did not talk to the media. Why would you? Instead,
he posted that quote from the Bible where he said,
if you're not welcome, not listened to, quietly withdraw, don't
make a scene, shrug your shoulders and be on your way,
which I think is the Irish goodbye. I didn't know
that was in the Bible, but I think that's the
(05:49):
Irish goodbye, right when you just make a quick exit. Yeah,
I think that's it, all right, So let us discuss
the question Eagles coach Nick Sirianni downplay. As you heard
the clear bitterness that AJ Brown has for Jalen Hurts
and the Eagles offense. Can you put this into context?
So I've got Hindenberg, Pink Floyd, and Cottinell and we
(06:13):
will combine all of these things together as we normally
do and make the Gaba gool. We're gonna make the
Gabba guls what we're gonna make, all right, So to
kick off here, AJ Brown is using the diva playbook. However,
he added a new wrinkle. It's like, Bam, add some
spice on topp will quote the Bible, which is like
(06:34):
a new wrinkle to it. It is right. We this
is a tale as old as time. And I got
a message from Fry Daddy, who's an Eagles fan in Pennsylvania,
and he's like, this is the same old thing.
Speaker 3 (06:45):
Man.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
We had the same old thing. But I have a
talk show to do. And when a white out doesn't
get his stats, normally, if they get their money, they're okay.
In this case, AJ Brown got paid and feels like
he's getting played by the goals. He's not happy about that.
And so if you're not getting the status you want,
you start sulking, check that box, you start pouting, check
(07:08):
that box, you post cryptic garbage online, check Jack Jack
Jack deck. And and then you've got the coach Siriani
like the coach who has to play therapist. And he's
you know, sitting down there like a shrink and not
not the game planner. He's just got a massage the ego.
And Sirianni is out there essentially saying, I mean, we
(07:30):
played some of the audio, but he's essentially saying, don't worry, Aj,
Everything's gonna be okay, Everything's gonna be all right. This
guy's committed. He loves being here. Polly's yeah, yeah, okay. Uh.
This is to say this is not going well for
the player. It's kind of like saying the Hindenburg was
just a just a rough landing. Just this just a
(07:53):
tough you know, kaboom. Uh yeah all right. So he's
he's spinning it. It's obvious he's he's the spokes and
for the Eagles, you're spinning it because you know, deep down,
AJ Brown's not happy and the fact that the Eagles
won the Super Bowl and he didn't seem very happy
after that, and now here we are, four games in
twenty five percent into the twenty five percent into the
new season. He's still not happy. And this is what
(08:17):
the devil wide receiver does, and the coach of the
devil wide receiver, this is what they do here. You downplay,
you sugarcoat, you minimize what's going on. You act like
it's all rainbows, and in this case, delicious cheese steak,
just delicious. I guess if I'm the Patriots or the Chargers,
I'm like, what's it going to take to get aj Brown?
(08:39):
It's gotta be a scenario. The age is not yet
at the full douche mode, but there is a douche
mode where the Eagles are like, we got to get
rid of this guy. We're better without him then with him.
I don't care if you're four or zero or not.
And you got one hundred million dollar ball player who's
posting Bible versus about him not being welcomed. It's going
to a higher power. So generally that's a bad side. Oh,
(09:03):
you're just being a negative talk show host. No, it's
a bad side, all right. That's a bad sign. And
the wide receiver, the diva, it's in the DNA of
a wide receiver and defensive backs and you need touches.
You need it. You need it like oxygen. And so
that's it. And so you know, don't get fed. They
become miserable, and AJ Brown appears to be miserable. It's
(09:25):
a lot of cardio. You're doing a lot of blocking
and you're running and you're not getting the ball. And yeah,
the winning thing clouds everything. That puts a fog over it.
It's just clunky. Uh, they're rolling, that's fine. And I
say rolling, they're winning games that are ugly. And if
AJ Brown is getting his stats, then he's obviously not
(09:49):
going to Bible versus the quote and all that stuff.
And this is the way tinderbox, which is fascinating because
normally you're four and oh, it's like everything's good here,
there's nothing to worry about four and oh and yeah,
it's a tinderbox waiting to explode. And eventually the Eagles
are going to lose some games. They're not going to
go seventeen and oh, they're going to lose their games.
(10:10):
And then you're like, okay, so what happens. Let's do
a little down the line talk radio. So the Eagles
are four and zero, and they play the Broncos this weekend.
That's conceivable. That's a game they could lose. It's in Philadelphia,
but that's not out of the question that they could
lose that game. Then they have a divisional game with
the Giants after that. Those divisional games are often close
(10:32):
and generally not blowouts, and so they'll say they lose
the next couple of games. They're sitting at four and
two after the next couple of games, and then what happens.
Everything goes sideways real quick. It's like, what happened. That's
a whirlwind? How did that happen? All right? Now, furthermore
to Chicago, we go where Bears coach Ben Johnson the
(10:53):
viral video and I didn't think this was that big
a deal. I didn't bring it up. I saw the
video over the weekend. I thought that's not really any
or anything like that was more of a visual thing
than an audio thing. But anyway, Ben Johnson said he
had regrets. He didn't necessarily apologize, but he said he
had regrets over how the halftime interview during the game
with Vegas went in week four. Now, to set this up,
(11:17):
the Bears were trailing fourteen to nine at halftime, and
Ben Johnson was asked by some female report I don't
know who this woman is for CBS, asked about his
message to the players after Chicago had scored only six
points off three turnovers in the first half. So that
(11:37):
was the story. And then Ben Johnson he got a
little snippy with the reporter because he she didn't put
a word in there, or he thought she didn't put
a word in there. Anyway, it went somewhat viral, and
here is Ben Johnson the follow up to the follow
up take a list.
Speaker 4 (11:54):
In the moment, I honestly, I didn't think too much
of it. I'm kind of in game mode.
Speaker 1 (12:00):
Yeah, me too.
Speaker 4 (12:00):
But then when I look back at it, you know,
I am a little bit disappointed with what that looks like.
You know, I didn't hear very well, and that's not
an excuse. But when I thought I argued it, but
that was not a question, but that I needed to
make some changes. I didn't take that very well. So
I'll do a better job with those going forward.
Speaker 1 (12:23):
Yeah, well, we'll break down what that means. But he
said the word but which means he retracted the previous statement.
So the question what stands out about the Bears head
coach Ben Johnson and his regrets over the viral halftime
clip where he got a little snippy with the reporter.
So this is an absolute basic move. One of the
(12:47):
great waste of our time as sports fans in game interviews.
Is there anything more useless in all of being a
sports fan than the in game interview? Seriously, you imagine
how much time is wasted by the people doing the
interviews those of us consuming the interviews. One out of
(13:09):
five thousand does something happen. Literally, one out of five
thousand does something happen. And the reason that nothing happens
is by design. It's all by design. Every NFL coach
knows the sideline interview drill. It's kindergarten, is what it is.
It's smile, shake your head, be polite, philibuster, spout a
(13:36):
couple of cliches, and walk back to the sidelines. Period. Stop.
That's it. Something like we gotta play our brand of football,
Gotta play our brand of football, one play at a time,
gotta finish drives. I like my team, we're gonna come
back and win the game. Something like that. Done. That's
the gig. That's literally all you have to do it
(13:56):
is pink Floyd one oh one, it's your lips moved.
But I cannot hear what you're saying. Is what it is.
It is perfunctory. It is just gibberish nonsense. It's the
TV networks think they're getting some kind of big revelation
by doing this, and it's a complete nothing burger except
(14:17):
for one out of five thousand. And you just do
it and that's it because you have to do it
now because you want to do it, and that's that's all.
And maybe you want to have a career in media,
so you'll you'll jazz it up a little bit and
give some good quotes, and that's it, and you just
survive it. And yet Ben Johnson, now they're treating the
question like a pop quiz that he did not study
for and just gave a snarky response. And it's like,
(14:41):
I don't know, you think so so that that's what
they call him Tennis an unforced error. He made himself.
He interjected himself into the story, which is the one
thing that you're not supposed to do that you shouldn't do.
He did. It's like it's like dropping an ice cream cone.
(15:04):
Before you even get to lick the ice cream cone.
Like that's that's an unforced error. No, everyone knows the rule.
You get the ice cream cone, you do a quick lick.
That's what you're supposed to do right away to make
sure you get that first lick in. But Ben Johnson,
you know going how viral this is. I saw it,
but I see a lot of stupid stuff, and I
didn't think it was that big a deal. And it's
(15:25):
like the simplest pass fail test in football media, one
on one, and he funked. And here's the part that
really really got me worked up into a ladder. He
then shows up on Monday and he's like he admitted,
like he had regret. He didn't apologize. We played the sound,
(15:46):
but I didn't apologize. But he admitted he had regret,
which only adds to the clown show. It only adds
to the clown show. Like you don't apologize for blowing
the halftime small talk? All right? I mean he shrug
it off and it's it. You move on and it works.
It works as a double negative and you bring it back.
It's like a double whammy, all right. Now, last thing
(16:07):
to Vegas we go where the Bears played the Raiders.
Raiders made sure the Bears felt good about that, as
they screwed up the special teams and ended up allowing
the Bears to win a game that the Raiders had
set up for victory. But that's not the story here.
The story We mentioned this early, but I circle back
to it. Ashton Genty, the running back who for some reason,
this is one of those things that I look at,
(16:28):
Hi'm like, really, are we that desperate that we need
to bring this up? And as like this is something,
but as I'm like, it's nothing, but what is it?
So Ashton Genty returned to his stand up straight in
the backfield he had been. He changed the way he
had run the football prior to the snap. He wasn't
playing the way he did at Boise State. So he
(16:50):
returned to standing up straight in the backfield, which got
approved by Pete Carroll, and of course everyone's all excited.
He had I think it was a sixty yard run.
Over sixty yards. Ashton Genty against the Bears ended up
with one hundred and thirty eight yard season high, NFL
career high. Because he's a rookie. On twenty one, carries
a Genty altering his stance. When he got to the NFL,
he changed it by request to the coaching staff, and
(17:11):
then he sucked for three games, and so he went
back to what he had done in college. Pe Carroll said,
I loved it. So is this Here's the reason I'm
bringing this up because I've seen this a version of
the story multiple times. Is this straight up stance the
secret to unlocking the magic of the Raider running back
Ashton Genty? Because I've been seeing versions of that headline,
(17:35):
versions of that story bouncing around the echo chamber, and
my response is are you kidding me? Right? Well, what's next?
The magic of Ashton Genty? He went back to tying
his left foot before his right foot, and when he
got to the NFL, for some reason, he thought to
tie his right foot before his left foot. But now
he's gone back to tying the left foot first, and
that has unlocked a higher power that because he now
(18:00):
is the left shoe like he was back at Boise State,
He's now having success. Yeah, It's like, is everyone stupid?
Is everyone a dummy?
Speaker 3 (18:12):
Like?
Speaker 1 (18:12):
Seriously? Like the reason he had a good game until
proven otherwise is the opponent the Bears their defense at times.
Now they they're very spotty, the Chicago Bears, but they
are the human equivalent of soaking wet cottonell toilet paper. Okay,
(18:32):
it's not good. It's not good. You brush up against
it and it just disintegrates, and it's that over reactionary
crap hole. It was like, you're just just so horny
for this guy to be good. You're like, it's got
it has to be good. He's gotta be a good player. Well, no,
he sucked for three games, but now he's gonna be good.
He had a good game. Well yeah, but they played
They played the Bears, and the Bears are good. It
(18:53):
doesn't matter. It's because of the stance. He stood up straight.
That's right. He was not that that's right. All right, Well,
we'll see what happens to The Raiders play the Indianapolis Coles,
who I saw in person. They don't have much of
a defense. They suck, And then they play the Tennessee Titans,
who also suck. So there's a couple of tomato cans
(19:13):
for the Raiders to get some good stats. With Ashton
Genty coming up here, and as far as Pete Carroll
and all that, he's everything, he loves everything. He's mister Sunshine,
Pete Carroll, and so come on and Pete Carroll could
get a speeding ticket and say how great the police
officer was that gave him the speeding ticket was really
polite and just just wonderful. And he wrote a little
(19:35):
smiley face on the ticket and that made me happy,
and so I'm happy about that. I'm very very happy.

(22:03):
name on It was very odd down the street from
the studio. But even that, I misspell, I misspell when
I go And now Koper Loop a Bronco fan. He's
in a good mood because the Broncos had an extra
bye week thanks to the Cincinnati Bengals deciding not to
play competitive football. Pathetic.
Speaker 7 (22:20):
They're going to give the Eagles their first loss.
Speaker 1 (22:24):
Yeah, we'll see. We'll see about that. Eagles have been
teetering though, they've been even playing with some fire.
Speaker 5 (22:31):
Right, What I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (22:34):
That's they're plump for the beating there. They certainly seem
like they are in that area. Well, they're getting ready
to lose, and then then what's a J. Brown going
to do? U can't read that on the air. Let's
see page down. Mister Irrigation's still yapping and complaining about
(22:55):
the Texans. They still don't they still have not reached
out to me for a right out at running back.
But considering Number twenty seven's performance on Sunday, the Texas
no doubt think their running back worries are over. Of course,
none of this would matter if Joe Mixon was back.
There you go. Okay, that ends the Houston Texans minute
(23:15):
on the show.
Speaker 8 (23:17):
That was a great minute.
Speaker 1 (23:18):
Thank you for that. JJ from written is sending out?
Is that from Antonio Brown? Or is that your photo?
I don't know. I don't even know what that. I
don't know comment on that. Flo Let's go to Blake,
who's in Arkansas. Hello, Blake, it's been a minute. Blake
hadn't called in a while. What's going on, Blake? Welcome.
Speaker 9 (23:34):
I'm betting my life, man.
Speaker 1 (23:36):
Don't don't bet you No, don't do it.
Speaker 9 (23:39):
On the reds Tonight Hometown Hero coming Back, Sherman Oaks.
There's a little part of you, just a little part
of you want I want the Dodgers to implode, Snail
to implode, Roberts do something stupid and the Reds take
this series.
Speaker 1 (23:54):
I'm not going to sit here and pretend that I don't.
I don't agree with you, because listen, the Dodgers gave
me the royal screw job, and would he killed me
if they lost? It wouldn't kill me if they lost.
I don't think they deserve to win. They're underachievers. There
were ten games under where they were supposed to be.
They're bullpen's horrific. Let's score a bunch of runs, and
(24:17):
so that's that's the problem. You bet against them. They're
gonna score runs against anybody, and they're gonna have to
keep They're gonna have to keep scoring though. That's the
problem because their bullpen. If it's a close game in
the eighth or ninth, Didny, they're gonna lose.
Speaker 9 (24:28):
Well, the Reds have no business meeting the Dodgers. But
I do really enjoy watching Ellie della Cruz. He is
wildly talented.
Speaker 1 (24:37):
Okay, so you're betting the mortgage on the Reds tonight,
that's the best, not the mortguan.
Speaker 9 (24:43):
It's a little sad bet for Ellie to hit a
home run at like plus seven hundred, still a base
at plus four fifty and the Reds to win.
Speaker 1 (24:51):
Oh you can hit one three, all right, Dodgers? What
are they like? One to ninety or something on the
money line there on the games tonight.
Speaker 9 (24:59):
I think some don't like that. Depends on where you
get it. I don't like bet and baseball, but you know,
a little bit just to keep me up, like, no,
I got you.
Speaker 1 (25:07):
Yeah, I don't mind. I'm not full Pete Rose, but
I would bet, like usually like first five innings or something.
If it's a good starting pitcher. You can't do anything
past that because the bullpens will just give you heartache,
absolute heartache, these bullpens. And how about that Red Sox
Yankee Gabe. That's a good game, Yankee Crochet and Max
Reed at Yankee Stadium. That's a good mashup. That's a
(25:29):
solid I'm gonna to watch that tonight. I guess I'm
supposed to watch all the games, aren't I Blake? Isn't
that part of the job I have to watch?
Speaker 9 (25:36):
I don't know how you do it? Just when do
you sleep? These guys are going before you. I don't
know how they ever do anything? Like how do you
guys even talk about this? You're up at three o'clock
in the morning. When do you sleep?
Speaker 1 (25:45):
I don't, I don't know. I just gid it's not
that hard. They are worse problems to have, you know.
Speaker 9 (25:49):
Yeah, well that make the big money, so I guess
I can get up.
Speaker 1 (25:52):
I don't know they're making the big money. But all right,
thank you, Blake, big money, good good, And let me
know what your new hustlers play. Always got a good hustle,
all right, send me imagine Blake. Blake got into that.
He was one of the early guys that got into
that Amazon return hustle. Oh stop. Yeah, Like he'd buy
crates of Amazon products return. He opened a warehouse in
(26:14):
Arkansas and sold the stuff, you know, like Amazon bins.
Have you you've been to the stories where they have
like the five dollars bin to ten dollars.
Speaker 8 (26:20):
Bin whatever it is, two dollars one by my house. Yeah,
that's where I got the toilet sents for the bathroom
and the dude wipes for you guys.
Speaker 1 (26:26):
Yeah, so Blake's into that hustle. He told me about it,
like I could have gotten in on and of course
I screwed up like everything else I fought.
Speaker 8 (26:32):
You know, he could have got in on it and
the next time next time, because he told.
Speaker 1 (26:36):
Me about it, there were none of them in La.
I could have been like one of the first people
in LA to do it. Yeah, you would have been
my hookup.
Speaker 8 (26:42):
I'd been like, Ben, let me know what.
Speaker 1 (26:44):
That's not even the worst though. I had a chance.
I had a chance to get bitcoin. Yeah, yeah, hey Ben.
Speaker 7 (26:49):
Next time it's like somebody in one of the listeners
like tells you, hey, invest in this, yeah, and let
you know yeah, and you're like sketch about and don't
want to do it. Just tell me and I'll get it,
and that'll be the one that's that's.
Speaker 1 (27:01):
One time it doesn't work. Yeah, yeah, No, I like,
is that still a thing though? Is that still popular?
Those Amazon stories where it's just returned because a lot
of people buy stuff and they don't need and they
don't even open it those time.
Speaker 8 (27:13):
Time I go to one of those bins, there are
dozens of people rummaging through. It is like literally the
coolest lost and found you've ever.
Speaker 1 (27:21):
Yeah, well, Blake said, the thing is you when you
the gimmick, you don't know what you're getting on the palettes.
They send it in palettes and I think I'm paraphrasing.
I'm probably getting it wrong, but he said, the first
day you charge like ten bucks, and then each progressed
because if people picked through it.
Speaker 8 (27:36):
Before the next shipment comes, that's what you make everything
super cheap.
Speaker 1 (27:39):
Yeah, exactly. All right, let's go to the phones. Let's
say hello to whoopye Pie Blair. Who's in the great
state of Maine. Hello, whoopee Pie Blair? Welcome?

Stay off the cocaine.
Speaker 3 (28:03):
But man, no, it's TikTok road.

Yeah, it's the same thing, Blair. It's it's it's a
you know, the whole social media game is they design
ways for you to not leave social media. It's like
a fund.

You know, you're like you that love me, And that's right.
Speaker 1 (28:32):
The thing over and I'm like your big brother me

people knew who you were, Blair. But when you lived
in southern California before you move to Maine, and we went.
We have a connection. People don't know this about me
and Blair. We have walked the same streets together. We
have been to the iconic Saddleback College together. Well not together,
but you went there, right, I was there. Boom, Look

of a game that is.
Speaker 1 (29:31):
Well, I want the Cubs to win, but I believe
the Podres will win. So to answer the question, I think.
Speaker 3 (29:35):
Oh, yeah, I'm saying the Cubs, yeah too.
Speaker 1 (29:38):
No, but I believe the Potters are gonna win. I
want the Cubs to win. I'll be pulling for the Cubs,
but I believe the Potters are going to win.
Speaker 3 (29:43):
It is at Regularly Field, so I sure hope at
regularly Field they upset them big time. All right?
Speaker 1 (29:51):
Can you stay off the tico? Can you stay off
the TikTok? Get addicted to overnight talk radio? That's the key.

Speaker 1 (30:01):
Have your eyebrows grown back?

Do you regret shaving off your eyebrows because someone on TikTok?
Speaker 3 (30:10):
I'm not doing that again?
Speaker 1 (30:13):
What are you going to next? What's the next TikTok
trend that you'll do? Like?
Speaker 3 (30:17):
Is there nothing stupid like that?
Speaker 1 (30:19):
Nothing like that?
Speaker 3 (30:20):
Stupid again?
Speaker 1 (30:21):
All right?
Speaker 3 (30:22):
Doing that?
Speaker 1 (30:23):
If you had any luck finding if you had any
luck finding a girlfriend on there, Blair, have you?
Speaker 3 (30:27):
I'm not going to find a girlfriend.
Speaker 1 (30:29):
On You're not not a real girlfriend. Maybe a fake girlfriend,
but not probably got I got too much of a
work life, and Blair, I beg of you as a
as a role model in your life. Blair, I beg
of you. Do not spend any money on OnlyFans, please, Blair.
Do not spend any.
Speaker 3 (30:44):
Money non on social media at all. Well, that's a
different kind of sociates are going out doing it at
like Walmart or.
Speaker 8 (30:53):
You know it is a great place to find a
husband or a wife.
Speaker 1 (30:59):
Really stopping? All right, I thank you, thank you, you

the real star of the North End, not like that imposter.
Speaker 9 (31:19):
Ben.
Speaker 3 (31:20):
I want to talk about the Dallas Green Bay game
the other night, forty to forty. He seemed broke their hump.
They put forty points up on the border piece.
Speaker 9 (31:29):
And they go home with a tie and nothing to
show forward.
Speaker 1 (31:33):
When is the NFL going to wake up and go
to the two point conversions?
Speaker 3 (31:38):
Like college?
Speaker 9 (31:39):
There is no reason why there should be a tie
in any freaking sport at all.
Speaker 1 (31:44):
You tell him, But you know what, you know what?
Speaker 9 (31:46):
I would expect this from a league that gets Bad
Bunny for the halftime show.
Speaker 1 (31:53):
Yeah, I don't. I don't really care about the halftime show.
I'm not at whatever. But who cares about bad Bundy?
But I'm not going to watch it. Even if Taylor
Swift did it, I wouldn't watch the halftime show, so
it doesn't really affect me at all. Now we got
bad Yeah, yeah exactly.
Speaker 7 (32:06):
I feel like you would have had to watch the
halftime show if it was Taylor, but I don't have
to with bad Bunny, right, No, definitely not.
Speaker 1 (32:12):
That's well, that's not going to be a trending topic.
Will he dress as a waiter like he did in
the Adam Samdler Netflix thing. He's gonna wear a skirt, Well,
that'll go over very well. If he wears a skirt,
that'll be no blowback on that. Yeah, okay, well, good
for him. Let's say hello to Eenie Meenie Miney Moe,
Mike the Leprechaun, Hello, Mike the lepreca on.

an Irish show. I miss it. Hold on, let me
hit the rim shot.
Speaker 7 (32:46):
I was just talking about Lucky Charms earlier today.
Speaker 1 (32:48):
Why are we talking about lucky charms? Dude? What about
looking well?
Speaker 7 (32:50):
During the Broncos game, there was a commercial for for
Lucky Charms, and then I was like, is Lucky Charms
a top five cereal? And I determined it's not. It
is not top five, but it's but it's great. It's
not top five though.
Speaker 8 (33:03):
I like to save all the marshmallows till the end
when they're soggy.

Actually, I don't know, do you what do you actually own?
Red Sox?
Speaker 9 (33:25):
The New York Yankees are blocking ticket sales to people
from Massachusetts, and that's the fact.
Speaker 1 (33:31):
Yeah, so let's go buy them on this they're making
you buy them on the secondary mark. Don't don't the
Red Sox do the same thing when the Yankees come. Yeah,
they've done this for years.
Speaker 3 (33:41):
It's not the playoffs anyway.
Speaker 1 (33:43):
They don't usually play in the playoffs very often.
Speaker 9 (33:45):

That's expresspros dot com. So our lead this hours from
the NFL. And what a dot of a knight at
absolute DoD of a knight. We had last night doubleheader
(03:02):
action Monday night football no show by the Cincinnati Bengals.
How bad was it? It was so bad that Jamar
Chase after the game said it didn't look like the
Bengals wanted it. Thank you, Captain Obvious. And you had
the Jets one of three winless teams and they played
a winless Dolphin team and they're still winless and mostly
(03:24):
non competitive performance by the Jets. And despite the fact
that media loves Aaron Glenn, they love the positivity, the
results are not there. And Aaron Glenn heard screaming and
banging on the wall in the Jets locker room after
they played more pathetic football against the Dolphins, who lost
Tyreek Hill for the season and possibly for the career
(03:45):
as his leg was twisted into bits by the tackle
or lack thereof of tackling against the Jets. But our
lead this hour from Philadelphia. The Eagles are four and zero.
Fly Eagles Fly on the road to bor ring football.
There four and zero and there's some internal drama. Now,
(04:08):
this is a follow up, follow up to some conversation
we had in a previous episode of the show. The
follow up is about Nick Sirianni, who has now entered
the chat. Sirianni was asked about AJ Brown. We talked
about this in a previous episode, a cryptic social media
post following the game on Sunday, and Sirianni said he
(04:29):
believes that AJ Brown wants to remain in Philadelphia. All right, now,
we'll play a little bit of it. I'll see if
we'll play the whole thing. We'll see if I'm entertained
by this or not. This is Nick Sirianni, the man
that famously would challenge players that wanted to be drafted
by the Eagles to rock paper scissors. Here's Nick Sirianni
(04:49):
his take on Aj Brown. Take a listen. Is it
your understanding that Aj still wants to be here?
Speaker 2 (04:56):
Yeah, obviously Aj is very important to this football team.
I know he wants to contribute and you know, do
the things that he's capable of doing. And yeah, I
mean so again, he wants to contribute into these wins,
and he's had a couple of games where he hasn't
been able to for different reasons of why we haven't
(05:19):
in these games. So I question nothing about his desire
to play great football's desire of being a good teammate.
I'm his desire to be here.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
He's just going through the bullet points at that particular point. Now,
bron did not talk to the media. Why would you? Instead,
he posted that quote from the Bible where he said,
if you're not welcome, not listened to, quietly withdraw, don't
make a scene, shrug your shoulders and be on your way,
which I think is the Irish goodbye. I didn't know
that was in the Bible, but I think that's the
(05:49):
Irish goodbye, right when you just make a quick exit. Yeah,
I think that's it, all right, So let us discuss
the question Eagles coach Nick Sirianni downplay. As you heard
the clear bitterness that AJ Brown has for Jalen Hurts
and the Eagles offense. Can you put this into context?
So I've got Hindenberg, Pink Floyd, and Cottinell and we
(06:13):
will combine all of these things together as we normally
do and make the Gaba gool. We're gonna make the
Gabba guls what we're gonna make, all right, So to
kick off here, AJ Brown is using the diva playbook. However,
he added a new wrinkle. It's like, Bam, add some
spice on topp will quote the Bible, which is like
(06:34):
a new wrinkle to it. It is right. We this
is a tale as old as time. And I got
a message from Fry Daddy, who's an Eagles fan in Pennsylvania,
and he's like, this is the same old thing.
Speaker 3 (06:45):
Man.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
We had the same old thing. But I have a
talk show to do. And when a white out doesn't
get his stats, normally, if they get their money, they're okay.
In this case, AJ Brown got paid and feels like
he's getting played by the goals. He's not happy about that.
And so if you're not getting the status you want,
you start sulking, check that box, you start pouting, check
(07:08):
that box, you post cryptic garbage online, check Jack Jack
Jack deck. And and then you've got the coach Siriani
like the coach who has to play therapist. And he's
you know, sitting down there like a shrink and not
not the game planner. He's just got a massage the ego.
And Sirianni is out there essentially saying, I mean, we
(07:30):
played some of the audio, but he's essentially saying, don't worry, Aj,
Everything's gonna be okay, Everything's gonna be all right. This
guy's committed. He loves being here. Polly's yeah, yeah, okay. Uh.
This is to say this is not going well for
the player. It's kind of like saying the Hindenburg was
just a just a rough landing. Just this just a
(07:53):
tough you know, kaboom. Uh yeah all right. So he's
he's spinning it. It's obvious he's he's the spokes and
for the Eagles, you're spinning it because you know, deep down,
AJ Brown's not happy and the fact that the Eagles
won the Super Bowl and he didn't seem very happy
after that, and now here we are, four games in
twenty five percent into the twenty five percent into the
new season. He's still not happy. And this is what
(08:17):
the devil wide receiver does, and the coach of the
devil wide receiver, this is what they do here. You downplay,
you sugarcoat, you minimize what's going on. You act like
it's all rainbows, and in this case, delicious cheese steak,
just delicious. I guess if I'm the Patriots or the Chargers,
I'm like, what's it going to take to get aj Brown?
(08:39):
It's gotta be a scenario. The age is not yet
at the full douche mode, but there is a douche
mode where the Eagles are like, we got to get
rid of this guy. We're better without him then with him.
I don't care if you're four or zero or not.
And you got one hundred million dollar ball player who's
posting Bible versus about him not being welcomed. It's going
to a higher power. So generally that's a bad side. Oh,
(09:03):
you're just being a negative talk show host. No, it's
a bad side, all right. That's a bad sign. And
the wide receiver, the diva, it's in the DNA of
a wide receiver and defensive backs and you need touches.
You need it. You need it like oxygen. And so
that's it. And so you know, don't get fed. They
become miserable, and AJ Brown appears to be miserable. It's
(09:25):
a lot of cardio. You're doing a lot of blocking
and you're running and you're not getting the ball. And yeah,
the winning thing clouds everything. That puts a fog over it.
It's just clunky. Uh, they're rolling, that's fine. And I
say rolling, they're winning games that are ugly. And if
AJ Brown is getting his stats, then he's obviously not
(09:49):
going to Bible versus the quote and all that stuff.
And this is the way tinderbox, which is fascinating because
normally you're four and oh, it's like everything's good here,
there's nothing to worry about four and oh and yeah,
it's a tinderbox waiting to explode. And eventually the Eagles
are going to lose some games. They're not going to
go seventeen and oh, they're going to lose their games.
(10:10):
And then you're like, okay, so what happens. Let's do
a little down the line talk radio. So the Eagles
are four and zero, and they play the Broncos this weekend.
That's conceivable. That's a game they could lose. It's in Philadelphia,
but that's not out of the question that they could
lose that game. Then they have a divisional game with
the Giants after that. Those divisional games are often close
(10:32):
and generally not blowouts, and so they'll say they lose
the next couple of games. They're sitting at four and
two after the next couple of games, and then what happens.
Everything goes sideways real quick. It's like, what happened. That's
a whirlwind? How did that happen? All right? Now, furthermore
to Chicago, we go where Bears coach Ben Johnson the
(10:53):
viral video and I didn't think this was that big
a deal. I didn't bring it up. I saw the
video over the weekend. I thought that's not really any
or anything like that was more of a visual thing
than an audio thing. But anyway, Ben Johnson said he
had regrets. He didn't necessarily apologize, but he said he
had regrets over how the halftime interview during the game
with Vegas went in week four. Now, to set this up,
(11:17):
the Bears were trailing fourteen to nine at halftime, and
Ben Johnson was asked by some female report I don't
know who this woman is for CBS, asked about his
message to the players after Chicago had scored only six
points off three turnovers in the first half. So that
(11:37):
was the story. And then Ben Johnson he got a
little snippy with the reporter because he she didn't put
a word in there, or he thought she didn't put
a word in there. Anyway, it went somewhat viral, and
here is Ben Johnson the follow up to the follow
up take a list.
Speaker 4 (11:54):
In the moment, I honestly, I didn't think too much
of it. I'm kind of in game mode.
Speaker 1 (12:00):
Yeah, me too.
Speaker 4 (12:00):
But then when I look back at it, you know,
I am a little bit disappointed with what that looks like.
You know, I didn't hear very well, and that's not
an excuse. But when I thought I argued it, but
that was not a question, but that I needed to
make some changes. I didn't take that very well. So
I'll do a better job with those going forward.
Speaker 1 (12:23):
Yeah, well, we'll break down what that means. But he
said the word but which means he retracted the previous statement.
So the question what stands out about the Bears head
coach Ben Johnson and his regrets over the viral halftime
clip where he got a little snippy with the reporter.
So this is an absolute basic move. One of the
(12:47):
great waste of our time as sports fans in game interviews.
Is there anything more useless in all of being a
sports fan than the in game interview? Seriously, you imagine
how much time is wasted by the people doing the
interviews those of us consuming the interviews. One out of
(13:09):
five thousand does something happen. Literally, one out of five
thousand does something happen. And the reason that nothing happens
is by design. It's all by design. Every NFL coach
knows the sideline interview drill. It's kindergarten, is what it is.
It's smile, shake your head, be polite, philibuster, spout a
(13:36):
couple of cliches, and walk back to the sidelines. Period. Stop.
That's it. Something like we gotta play our brand of football,
Gotta play our brand of football, one play at a time,
gotta finish drives. I like my team, we're gonna come
back and win the game. Something like that. Done. That's
the gig. That's literally all you have to do it
(13:56):
is pink Floyd one oh one, it's your lips moved.
But I cannot hear what you're saying. Is what it is.
It is perfunctory. It is just gibberish nonsense. It's the
TV networks think they're getting some kind of big revelation
by doing this, and it's a complete nothing burger except
(14:17):
for one out of five thousand. And you just do
it and that's it because you have to do it
now because you want to do it, and that's that's all.
And maybe you want to have a career in media,
so you'll you'll jazz it up a little bit and
give some good quotes, and that's it, and you just
survive it. And yet Ben Johnson, now they're treating the
question like a pop quiz that he did not study
for and just gave a snarky response. And it's like,
(14:41):
I don't know, you think so so that that's what
they call him Tennis an unforced error. He made himself.
He interjected himself into the story, which is the one
thing that you're not supposed to do that you shouldn't do.
He did. It's like it's like dropping an ice cream cone.
(15:04):
Before you even get to lick the ice cream cone.
Like that's that's an unforced error. No, everyone knows the rule.
You get the ice cream cone, you do a quick lick.
That's what you're supposed to do right away to make
sure you get that first lick in. But Ben Johnson,
you know going how viral this is. I saw it,
but I see a lot of stupid stuff, and I
didn't think it was that big a deal. And it's
(15:25):
like the simplest pass fail test in football media, one
on one, and he funked. And here's the part that
really really got me worked up into a ladder. He
then shows up on Monday and he's like he admitted,
like he had regret. He didn't apologize. We played the sound,
(15:46):
but I didn't apologize. But he admitted he had regret,
which only adds to the clown show. It only adds
to the clown show. Like you don't apologize for blowing
the halftime small talk? All right? I mean he shrug
it off and it's it. You move on and it works.
It works as a double negative and you bring it back.
It's like a double whammy, all right. Now, last thing
(16:07):
to Vegas we go where the Bears played the Raiders.
Raiders made sure the Bears felt good about that, as
they screwed up the special teams and ended up allowing
the Bears to win a game that the Raiders had
set up for victory. But that's not the story here.
The story We mentioned this early, but I circle back
to it. Ashton Genty, the running back who for some reason,
this is one of those things that I look at,
(16:28):
Hi'm like, really, are we that desperate that we need
to bring this up? And as like this is something,
but as I'm like, it's nothing, but what is it?
So Ashton Genty returned to his stand up straight in
the backfield he had been. He changed the way he
had run the football prior to the snap. He wasn't
playing the way he did at Boise State. So he
(16:50):
returned to standing up straight in the backfield, which got
approved by Pete Carroll, and of course everyone's all excited.
He had I think it was a sixty yard run.
Over sixty yards. Ashton Genty against the Bears ended up
with one hundred and thirty eight yard season high, NFL
career high. Because he's a rookie. On twenty one, carries
a Genty altering his stance. When he got to the NFL,
he changed it by request to the coaching staff, and
(17:11):
then he sucked for three games, and so he went
back to what he had done in college. Pe Carroll said,
I loved it. So is this Here's the reason I'm
bringing this up because I've seen this a version of
the story multiple times. Is this straight up stance the
secret to unlocking the magic of the Raider running back
Ashton Genty? Because I've been seeing versions of that headline,
(17:35):
versions of that story bouncing around the echo chamber, and
my response is are you kidding me? Right? Well, what's next?
The magic of Ashton Genty? He went back to tying
his left foot before his right foot, and when he
got to the NFL, for some reason, he thought to
tie his right foot before his left foot. But now
he's gone back to tying the left foot first, and
that has unlocked a higher power that because he now
(18:00):
is the left shoe like he was back at Boise State,
He's now having success. Yeah, It's like, is everyone stupid?
Is everyone a dummy?
Speaker 3 (18:12):
Like?
Speaker 1 (18:12):
Seriously? Like the reason he had a good game until
proven otherwise is the opponent the Bears their defense at times.
Now they they're very spotty, the Chicago Bears, but they
are the human equivalent of soaking wet cottonell toilet paper. Okay,
(18:32):
it's not good. It's not good. You brush up against
it and it just disintegrates, and it's that over reactionary
crap hole. It was like, you're just just so horny
for this guy to be good. You're like, it's got
it has to be good. He's gotta be a good player. Well, no,
he sucked for three games, but now he's gonna be good.
He had a good game. Well yeah, but they played
They played the Bears, and the Bears are good. It
(18:53):
doesn't matter. It's because of the stance. He stood up straight.
That's right. He was not that that's right. All right, Well,
we'll see what happens to The Raiders play the Indianapolis Coles,
who I saw in person. They don't have much of
a defense. They suck, And then they play the Tennessee Titans,
who also suck. So there's a couple of tomato cans
(19:13):
for the Raiders to get some good stats. With Ashton
Genty coming up here, and as far as Pete Carroll
and all that, he's everything, he loves everything. He's mister Sunshine,
Pete Carroll, and so come on and Pete Carroll could
get a speeding ticket and say how great the police
officer was that gave him the speeding ticket was really
polite and just just wonderful. And he wrote a little
(19:35):
smiley face on the ticket and that made me happy,
and so I'm happy about that. I'm very very happy.
All right. It is the Ben Mahler Show. If you'd

(22:03):
name on It was very odd down the street from
the studio. But even that, I misspell, I misspell when
I go And now Koper Loop a Bronco fan. He's
in a good mood because the Broncos had an extra
bye week thanks to the Cincinnati Bengals deciding not to
play competitive football. Pathetic.
Speaker 7 (22:20):
They're going to give the Eagles their first loss.
Speaker 1 (22:24):
Yeah, we'll see. We'll see about that. Eagles have been
teetering though, they've been even playing with some fire.
Speaker 5 (22:31):
Right, What I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (22:34):
That's they're plump for the beating there. They certainly seem
like they are in that area. Well, they're getting ready
to lose, and then then what's a J. Brown going
to do? U can't read that on the air. Let's
see page down. Mister Irrigation's still yapping and complaining about
(22:55):
the Texans. They still don't they still have not reached
out to me for a right out at running back.
But considering Number twenty seven's performance on Sunday, the Texas
no doubt think their running back worries are over. Of course,
none of this would matter if Joe Mixon was back.
There you go. Okay, that ends the Houston Texans minute
(23:15):
on the show.
Speaker 8 (23:17):
That was a great minute.
Speaker 1 (23:18):
Thank you for that. JJ from written is sending out?
Is that from Antonio Brown? Or is that your photo?
I don't know. I don't even know what that. I
don't know comment on that. Flo Let's go to Blake,
who's in Arkansas. Hello, Blake, it's been a minute. Blake
hadn't called in a while. What's going on, Blake? Welcome.
Speaker 9 (23:34):
I'm betting my life, man.
Speaker 1 (23:36):
Don't don't bet you No, don't do it.
Speaker 9 (23:39):
On the reds Tonight Hometown Hero coming Back, Sherman Oaks.
There's a little part of you, just a little part
of you want I want the Dodgers to implode, Snail
to implode, Roberts do something stupid and the Reds take
this series.
Speaker 1 (23:54):
I'm not going to sit here and pretend that I don't.
I don't agree with you, because listen, the Dodgers gave
me the royal screw job, and would he killed me
if they lost? It wouldn't kill me if they lost.
I don't think they deserve to win. They're underachievers. There
were ten games under where they were supposed to be.
They're bullpen's horrific. Let's score a bunch of runs, and
(24:17):
so that's that's the problem. You bet against them. They're
gonna score runs against anybody, and they're gonna have to
keep They're gonna have to keep scoring though. That's the
problem because their bullpen. If it's a close game in
the eighth or ninth, Didny, they're gonna lose.
Speaker 9 (24:28):
Well, the Reds have no business meeting the Dodgers. But
I do really enjoy watching Ellie della Cruz. He is
wildly talented.
Speaker 1 (24:37):
Okay, so you're betting the mortgage on the Reds tonight,
that's the best, not the mortguan.
Speaker 9 (24:43):
It's a little sad bet for Ellie to hit a
home run at like plus seven hundred, still a base
at plus four fifty and the Reds to win.
Speaker 1 (24:51):
Oh you can hit one three, all right, Dodgers? What
are they like? One to ninety or something on the
money line there on the games tonight.
Speaker 9 (24:59):
I think some don't like that. Depends on where you
get it. I don't like bet and baseball, but you know,
a little bit just to keep me up, like, no,
I got you.
Speaker 1 (25:07):
Yeah, I don't mind. I'm not full Pete Rose, but
I would bet, like usually like first five innings or something.
If it's a good starting pitcher. You can't do anything
past that because the bullpens will just give you heartache,
absolute heartache, these bullpens. And how about that Red Sox
Yankee Gabe. That's a good game, Yankee Crochet and Max
Reed at Yankee Stadium. That's a good mashup. That's a
(25:29):
solid I'm gonna to watch that tonight. I guess I'm
supposed to watch all the games, aren't I Blake? Isn't
that part of the job I have to watch?
Speaker 9 (25:36):
I don't know how you do it? Just when do
you sleep? These guys are going before you. I don't
know how they ever do anything? Like how do you
guys even talk about this? You're up at three o'clock
in the morning. When do you sleep?
Speaker 1 (25:45):
I don't, I don't know. I just gid it's not
that hard. They are worse problems to have, you know.
Speaker 9 (25:49):
Yeah, well that make the big money, so I guess
I can get up.
Speaker 1 (25:52):
I don't know they're making the big money. But all right,
thank you, Blake, big money, good good, And let me
know what your new hustlers play. Always got a good hustle,
all right, send me imagine Blake. Blake got into that.
He was one of the early guys that got into
that Amazon return hustle. Oh stop. Yeah, Like he'd buy
crates of Amazon products return. He opened a warehouse in
(26:14):
Arkansas and sold the stuff, you know, like Amazon bins.
Have you you've been to the stories where they have
like the five dollars bin to ten dollars.
Speaker 8 (26:20):
Bin whatever it is, two dollars one by my house. Yeah,
that's where I got the toilet sents for the bathroom
and the dude wipes for you guys.
Speaker 1 (26:26):
Yeah, so Blake's into that hustle. He told me about it,
like I could have gotten in on and of course
I screwed up like everything else I fought.
Speaker 8 (26:32):
You know, he could have got in on it and
the next time next time, because he told.
Speaker 1 (26:36):
Me about it, there were none of them in La.
I could have been like one of the first people
in LA to do it. Yeah, you would have been
my hookup.
Speaker 8 (26:42):
I'd been like, Ben, let me know what.
Speaker 1 (26:44):
That's not even the worst though. I had a chance.
I had a chance to get bitcoin. Yeah, yeah, hey Ben.
Speaker 7 (26:49):
Next time it's like somebody in one of the listeners
like tells you, hey, invest in this, yeah, and let
you know yeah, and you're like sketch about and don't
want to do it. Just tell me and I'll get it,
and that'll be the one that's that's.
Speaker 1 (27:01):
One time it doesn't work. Yeah, yeah, No, I like,
is that still a thing though? Is that still popular?
Those Amazon stories where it's just returned because a lot
of people buy stuff and they don't need and they
don't even open it those time.
Speaker 8 (27:13):
Time I go to one of those bins, there are
dozens of people rummaging through. It is like literally the
coolest lost and found you've ever.
Speaker 1 (27:21):
Yeah, well, Blake said, the thing is you when you
the gimmick, you don't know what you're getting on the palettes.
They send it in palettes and I think I'm paraphrasing.
I'm probably getting it wrong, but he said, the first
day you charge like ten bucks, and then each progressed
because if people picked through it.
Speaker 8 (27:36):
Before the next shipment comes, that's what you make everything
super cheap.
Speaker 1 (27:39):
Yeah, exactly. All right, let's go to the phones. Let's
say hello to whoopye Pie Blair. Who's in the great
state of Maine. Hello, whoopee Pie Blair? Welcome?

in southern California before you move to Maine, and we went.
We have a connection. People don't know this about me
and Blair. We have walked the same streets together. We
have been to the iconic Saddleback College together. Well not together,
but you went there, right, I was there. Boom, Look
(28:54):
at that, I'm believing.
Speaker 3 (28:55):
Yeah, I helped out with football, and that's right.
Speaker 1 (28:59):

the Podres will win. So to answer the question, I think.
Speaker 3 (29:35):
Oh, yeah, I'm saying the Cubs, yeah too.
Speaker 1 (29:38):
No, but I believe the Potters are gonna win. I
want the Cubs to win. I'll be pulling for the Cubs,
but I believe the Potters are going to win.
Speaker 3 (29:43):
It is at Regularly Field, so I sure hope at
regularly Field they upset them big time. All right?
Speaker 1 (29:51):
Can you stay off the tico? Can you stay off
the TikTok? Get addicted to overnight talk radio? That's the key.
Speaker 3 (29:56):
Now, I don't know about that one. I'll try for.
Speaker 1 (30:01):
Have your eyebrows grown back?
Speaker 3 (30:04):

Do you regret shaving off your eyebrows because someone on TikTok?
Speaker 3 (30:10):
I'm not doing that again?
Speaker 1 (30:13):
What are you going to next? What's the next TikTok
trend that you'll do? Like?
Speaker 3 (30:17):
Is there nothing stupid like that?
Speaker 1 (30:19):
Nothing like that?
Speaker 3 (30:20):
Stupid again?
Speaker 1 (30:21):
All right?
Speaker 3 (30:22):
Doing that?
Speaker 1 (30:23):
If you had any luck finding if you had any
luck finding a girlfriend on there, Blair, have you?
Speaker 3 (30:27):
I'm not going to find a girlfriend.
Speaker 1 (30:29):
On You're not not a real girlfriend. Maybe a fake girlfriend,
but not probably got I got too much of a
work life, and Blair, I beg of you as a
as a role model in your life. Blair, I beg
of you. Do not spend any money on OnlyFans, please, Blair.
Do not spend any.
Speaker 3 (30:44):
Money non on social media at all. Well, that's a
different kind of sociates are going out doing it at
like Walmart or.
Speaker 8 (30:53):
You know it is a great place to find a
husband or a wife.
Speaker 1 (30:59):
Really stopping? All right, I thank you, thank you, you
were Yeah, let's go to Mark. My dad met his
wife at Lomar Mark's on the North End. Hello Mark,
Yes to the original, the original may not the fraudster,
the real star of the North End, not like that imposter.
Speaker 9 (31:19):
Ben.
Speaker 3 (31:20):
I want to talk about the Dallas Green Bay game
the other night, forty to forty. He seemed broke their hump.
They put forty points up on the border piece.
Speaker 9 (31:29):
And they go home with a tie and nothing to
show forward.
Speaker 1 (31:33):
When is the NFL going to wake up and go
to the two point conversions?
Speaker 3 (31:38):
Like college?
Speaker 9 (31:39):
There is no reason why there should be a tie
in any freaking sport at all.
Speaker 1 (31:44):
You tell him, But you know what, you know what?
Speaker 9 (31:46):
I would expect this from a league that gets Bad
Bunny for the halftime show.
Speaker 1 (31:53):
Yeah, I don't. I don't really care about the halftime show.
I'm not at whatever. But who cares about bad Bundy?
But I'm not going to watch it. Even if Taylor
Swift did it, I wouldn't watch the halftime show, so
it doesn't really affect me at all. Now we got
bad Yeah, yeah exactly.
Speaker 7 (32:06):
I feel like you would have had to watch the
halftime show if it was Taylor, but I don't have
to with bad Bunny, right, No, definitely not.
Speaker 1 (32:12):
That's well, that's not going to be a trending topic.
Will he dress as a waiter like he did in
the Adam Samdler Netflix thing. He's gonna wear a skirt, Well,
that'll go over very well. If he wears a skirt,
that'll be no blowback on that. Yeah, okay, well, good
for him. Let's say hello to Eenie Meenie Miney Moe,
Mike the Leprechaun, Hello, Mike the lepreca on.
Speaker 3 (32:34):
Top in the morning. You should invest in lucky Charms.
Speaker 1 (32:36):
Then it's it's an Irish joke right there. That's that's
an Irish show. I miss it. Hold on, let me
hit the rim shot.
Speaker 7 (32:46):
I was just talking about Lucky Charms earlier today.
Speaker 1 (32:48):
Why are we talking about lucky charms? Dude? What about
looking well?
Speaker 7 (32:50):
During the Broncos game, there was a commercial for for
Lucky Charms, and then I was like, is Lucky Charms
a top five cereal? And I determined it's not. It
is not top five, but it's but it's great. It's
not top five though.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
