Oh maha, oh maha.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
Omas our number four, our number four, And we go
to the mouth and parts the words of New Orleans
Saints defensive end Cameron Jordan, who says the NFL rule
change request he would have bring back taunting. He wants
five seconds of taunting in the NFL allowed. Is this
(00:23):
inbounds or out of bounds? We'll talk about that. Also,
we're hearing that Daniel Jones has taken a quote significant
lead over Anthony Richardson in the quarterback battle to be
the Week one starter in Indianapolis. How do you digest
this one? And we'll go to basketball again, where the
Celtics have acquired shooting guard Anthony Simmons and two second
(00:47):
round picks from the Trailblazers in exchange for point guard
Drew Holiday. How do you grade that trade? We'll talk
about that as well. Have a wonderful Tuesday, enjoy the
day here. It is our number four. All you need,
just five seconds, That's all you need. Welcome in the
beginning of another hour of the Ben Malors Show.
Speaker 3 (01:10):
We are in the air everywhere fireside chatting as we
are just a bunch of cart jockeys here coast to coast, border,
the border and beyond on the vast and monumentally powerful
microphones of FSR am monating live from the wave the microwave.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
Of hot takes as we're hanging out here at the
Fox Sports Radio studios. As approved by the demonic Daggers,
I have to throw some of those at Far Out Day.
This portion of the Ben Mallory Show made possible by

buying show.
Speaker 1 (02:11):
So our lead this hour.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
And I'll look to apologize those that were listening. Last
hour there was a saboteur far Out Dave, who's now
banned from the show. We're going to send him to
Guantanamo Bay for sabotaging the integrity of a game show.
You cannot do that. That is high crimes and misdemeanors.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
But we'll move on.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
We'll pretend that didn't happen, but you know the legitimate contestant,
that's an easy win. But our lead this hour is
from the NFL. We start in the Bayou where Cam Jordan,
who's been around for a very long time. NFL seasons
are like dog years. One year is like seven, so
he's been there fifteen years. But you can do the math.
(02:52):
It's much more than that. With the New Orleans Saints.
So during a recent appearance at the Fanatics event in
New York's, how much you think Fanatics spent to fly
in all of those headline athletes. I would love to
know the cost of travel and accommodations and appearance fees
(03:12):
that Fanatics spent. You think they could have lowered the
prices of some of that stuff if they had not
done that.
Speaker 4 (03:19):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
I'm just saying anyway.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
Cam Jordan was there at that event and he was
asked what he would pick as the dumbest rule in
the modern NFL, something that has happened since he has
joined the NFL.
Speaker 1 (03:35):
So in the last fifteen years, did you hear what
he said?
Speaker 2 (03:38):
You did?
Speaker 5 (03:38):
Not?
Speaker 1 (03:39):
Good?
Speaker 4 (03:39):
All right?
Speaker 2 (03:39):
So Cam Jordan of the Saints said the excessive celebration,
he said, for fans, a success to celebration, he thinks,
he says, if you don't let them celebrate. They scored
a touchdown, they dragged three defenders on their back, I
got a sack of the quarterback. Give me five seconds,
Cam Jordan said, he wants a five second chance to celebrate.
(04:03):
He said, let us celebrate. He said, it's okay to taunt.
Bring back taunting. Let me talk my s word. It's
a word we should be allowed to say, but for
some reason we're not allowed.
Speaker 1 (04:15):
To say anyway.
Speaker 2 (04:17):
So for years, the NFL has been cracking down on
those kind of celebrations. A couple of years back, it've
been about four or five years now. They really went
next level in the no taunty mctaunt in the NFL.
And if guilty, it's been this way for four or
five years. Your team is penalized fifteen yards. So you
(04:40):
score a touchdown, you celebrate, and you do too much
celebration fifteen yard penalty. The offending player often gets fined.
And that's how it goes. So let us discuss the
question for the esteem panel. The New Orleans Saints defensive
end Cam Jordan he's implied here the NFL rule change.
He would like, bring back taunting, Bring back taunting. Is
(05:03):
this inbounds or is this out of bounds?
Speaker 1 (05:07):
That is the question. What is the answer.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
So I've got church, picnic, wonderbread, and jazz club and
we will combine all of these things together and we're
gonna wrestle an alligator, is what we're going to do.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
So to kick off.
Speaker 2 (05:22):
Upon a booth review, we did a malord show booth review,
an expedited booth review to use NFL jargon. This is
in mas inbound. I like the idea. I like it
five seconds. How bad could the taunting be in five seconds?
(05:44):
Five seconds of pure bliss?
Speaker 1 (05:47):
I like it.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
And here's why I like it. Taunting is raw, right,
It's real. It's emotion. We need more emotion. It's competition.
In recent years, the NFL aristocrats, the people that run
the NFL, you're the owners and whatnot, they have tried
to water down the product. They've tried to sterilize the product,
(06:10):
stripped away a very human ingredient to the recipe.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
Here, pride, right, taunting is a lot of It's pride.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
You've done something great, you want to celebrate you're proud
of what you've done, you want to celebrate with a
little taunt in the NFL like no, and last I
checked it, maybe I'm wrong on this. I don't think
this is like a Sunday school church picnic where you're
just out there. A lot of them have a sandwich
and some chips, and no, it's it's pro football, right,
it's pro football and all that stuff. Some of my
(06:42):
fondest memories growing up watching the NFL are outlawed.
Speaker 1 (06:47):
They're not allowed. They're a boat in these days in
the NFL.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
You imagine how many people would have a heart attack
if Dion Sanders did the things that he was doing
back in his day, backpedaling or whatever in the end zone,
or a player did the river or the chick dance,
any of those dance routines, Like, well, you're gonna have
the choreographed celebration, but that would be making it all
about you or t O running out and dancing on
the star and all that.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
Oh my god, somebody had have a heart attack.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
So Cam Jordan, a guy's been around a long time
and a lot, but he's not just talking about show
boating like the way I interpreted it, and I have
the malor of Rosetta Stone. So the way I interpreted it,
he's talking about letting players show passion right without the laundry,
the flag coming down and all that stuff, So like,
(07:34):
what's wrong with it? I don't think he's saying this
needs to be like professional wrestling and go that level.
And there is a fine thin NFL shield line if
you will here, if you want to go that direction.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
But it used to be obvious.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
Even back in the day.
Speaker 1 (07:51):
It was like obvious, well that was a little too far.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
Now it's anything that makes the other person feel bad.
You can't feel bad. It's like, come on, it's a
bunch of baloney. And it's the game of football. You
play once a week, right, most of your time you're
practicing and all that stuff.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
But you can't make the other person feel bad. Let
them chirp five seconds?
Speaker 2 (08:12):
What could possibly be run five set a timer, put
a sponsor on it, Slap a sponsor on it, five seconds,
the five seconds celebration. Let them chirp blah blah blah blah.
You can go on and on and on, and when
you take that away, and the NFL has done that
in recent years to some degree, you're not really protecting
(08:34):
the integrity of the game, you're draining it of a
bit of its lifeblood those extra celebratory moments. Now, I
would also put a rule in there, like if if
you're going to do that, it's always really funny when
the team's down by thirty points, like the Titans, and
then some Jabroni gets a sack and then they do
a dance. That's always ridiculous. But outside of that is
(08:56):
a close game within reasonable reaching a striking distance. Come on, now,
furthermore to the Horseshoe City we go, and we're hearing
now some reports over the weekend and into the week
here saying that Daniel Jones, that's right, Vanilla Vick, Daniel
Jones has taken a quote significant lead, a significant lead
(09:20):
over Anthony Richardson in the Quarterback Battle Royale to be
the week number one starting in Indianapolis. So question, how
do you digest that one? That Daniel Jones has a
significant lead to be QB one in Indy. So the
(09:44):
first thought I have is, isn't this rather obvious? Richardson
is hurt, He's not, There's no way he can do anything.
Yet again, his superpower is getting hurt. It's impressing scouts
with his raw athletic ability and then not doing on
the field and tapping out of games because he's tired.
(10:04):
You know that those are a supercars. But here's the thing.
Like the way I digest this one, I digest it
like someone eating a loaf of wonderbread who has a
gluten allergy. I want to breakout in a rash unless
Daniel Jones has had a great epiphany, a renaissance if
(10:24):
you will, and you've transplanted someone with a brain that
knows football into his body and suddenly he morphed in
even like Matthew Stafford, like that kind of quarterback with wheels. Okay, Otherwise,
this is a giant red flag that is on top
(10:45):
of Lucas Oil Stadium in downtown Indianapolis. And I don't
want to hear the spoon fed optimism from the pr
hacks in Indianapolis and all that that's being peddled by
some around the culture, Like you look that quarterback when
we talked about this in previous episodes, or about a
month away from training camp opening up in the NFL,
(11:06):
and this is one of those quarterback battles where you
are stuck between the devil and the deep blue sea.
You've got either Daniel Jones or Anthony Richardson.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
There's no getting out alive.
Speaker 2 (11:21):
And this is another example Indianapolis is continuing to try
to navigate their way out of a hole.
Speaker 1 (11:27):
They have been a quarterback how would I describe it?
Speaker 2 (11:30):
Since Andrew Locke quit right before the season years ago,
the Colts have been a Bermuda triangle for quarterbacks. Now
it's not as bad as the Cleveland Browns, but it's
a hellscape nonetheless for the Indianapolis football team. And so
now they have a Schmendrick and a dingle Berry. Those
(11:51):
are the options. Do we go with the Schmendrick or
the dingle Berry to be QB one. It is the
stuff of if you like that, teams like a nightmare
situation is what it is.
Speaker 6 (12:02):
Not.
Speaker 2 (12:02):
Last thing we moved to the and B A. We
had a Monday night trade. Now the draft is tomorrow
tomorrow the NBA it's a two day thing, right they
have the first round on one day and then the second.
Does anyone at the NBA realize we don't want that,
but they're gonna do it over to day. So first
round in the second round and all that stuff. So
(12:24):
we had a trade. The Celtics starting to break apart
the championship roster. Say it ain't so holy, Joe mizzoula batman. Yeah,
the Celtics have acquired shooting guard Anthony Simon's and two
second round picks from the Trailblazers, and in exchange, they
(12:46):
have sent down the Oregon trail point guard Drew Holiday.
It is no longer a holiday in Boston. Drew Holiday
is gone. So how do you grade the trade of
Anthony Simons going to Boston with a couple of second
round picks and then Drew Holliday going back over to
(13:07):
the team in Oregon. So for Boston I had on
the Mallard scorecard a B minus, a B minus, and
for Portland I gave them an F. I gave them
an F. And here's why this is being celebrated by
many in the I don't see the block is fair.
(13:27):
This is more of the matrix social media. It's being
celebrated at all. What a great move, A feather in
the cap of Brad Stevens and all that stuff. It's
a salary dump. It's a salary dump with a fresh
coat of paint. That's what it is. And they traded
a guy that they brought in to be the final
piece to a championship, and Drew Holliday, a defensive minded
(13:48):
player who's a glue guy, a tough player, a guy
that can grind out a defensive stop late in the game,
doesn't need the ball, and in return they got some
flash and they got a younger player. And who cares
about the second round pick, but it is a move
or two second round picks, But it's a move that
saves Boston money because it's all about the apron. They
(14:11):
have to get under the second apron, and that trade,
with some other moves that Celtics are gonna make, will
put them in position to get underneath that. That's why
they made the trade. They didn't make the trade for
the player they got. They didn't make the trade because
they didn't want Drew Holliday.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
They made the trade for financial reasons. That's it. And
supposed to be the championship wind.
Speaker 2 (14:32):
Knowing all that, and Brad Stevens had to manipulate things
as well. It's all over now because Jason Tatum's gonna
be out pretty much all of next year and so
this now messes up the roster balance. Drew Holliday was
one of the few guys that didn't need the ball
in his hands. And let's not sit here and pretend,
because I get the sense that many who are I
(14:55):
gets to call the Green teamers in Boston there many
of the people there are pretending like that Simons is
walking in is a proven commodity.
Speaker 1 (15:03):
And look at the numbers he put up.
Speaker 2 (15:05):
He's all you know, he's not a winner, like the
Blazers have been terrible for years. And he played in
Portland and scored a fair amount of points. But doing
that on a bad team. And I know firsthand because
I back in my early days, I was around bad
teams a lot, and I witnessed guys put up great stats.
Because somebody's gonna lead the team in scoring. Every bad
(15:28):
team still scores over one hundred points. Someone's gonna put
up points. So the guy played Anthony, who's named after
Penny Hardaway by his first name name. His parents are
from Florida, like the Orlando Magic. When Penny Hardwood put there.
Speaker 1 (15:41):
Anyway, Simons in Portland put up some numbers.
Speaker 2 (15:44):
It's like being the headliner at a jazz club, and
it's an empty jazz club. The only people listening are
the ghosts in the jazz club.
Speaker 1 (15:53):
That's it.
Speaker 2 (15:54):
There are no actual people there. Very smooth performance, but
no one's watching.
Speaker 1 (15:58):
So does it really count? Thinks? And who cares about
the numbers?
Speaker 2 (16:02):
Anyway, you're off the grid, you're on a dog food
team and all that. And he's got the chance to
change the script and he has, they say. The other
argument is what he hasn't played on a good team.
He hasn't a chance. Okay, fine, so Simons will do that.
He's an unproven commodity. And the Celtics they got younger
as much younger they traded an older player. Did they
(16:23):
actually get better though? Yeah? Oh Brad Stevens, what a genius.
Oh man, he's playing chess. You know everyone else is
playing checkers all that stuff. For Portland, I gave them
an f They've already.
Speaker 1 (16:35):
Had Drew Holliday.
Speaker 2 (16:37):
The Trailblazers really wanted the player. They wanted to reacquire
drewe Holiday, which is odd to me. He's thirty five
years old by the time they they even if everything
works and the Trailblazers end up a contender again, in
the West, right, all the pieces come together. My mass
says Drew Holliday, will be about fifty five years old,
(16:58):
so about twenty years from now, so he's just still
gonna be playing when he's fifty five. I'm gonna go no,
I'm gonna go no. All right, it is the Ben
Mahlor Show. If you'd like to comment on any of that,

He was a paratrooper of World War Two.
Speaker 1 (20:40):
Oh wow, that's awesome.
Speaker 2 (20:41):
Yeah. Yeah, we have a lot of guys. I mean,
people have been very nice. I've got a lot of
emails from people either we're in the military or relatives
in the military, and the front ends of the show.
Speaker 1 (20:49):
So it's it's cool to hear from everybody nice.
Speaker 4 (20:51):
And I was very proud of Bree, who says you
knew how to spell.
Speaker 1 (20:59):
Let me see, Yes, she smelled it right.
Speaker 8 (21:01):
Of course the soprano.
Speaker 2 (21:03):
Did you google it though? Did you watch soprano?
Speaker 1 (21:06):
I love the sopranos too. I don't think it holds
up though. Does it hold up?
Speaker 4 (21:10):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (21:10):
I think it holds out?
Speaker 9 (21:11):
Really?
Speaker 10 (21:11):
But did you watch it with subtitles like whenever you
watched it?
Speaker 2 (21:15):
No? Okay, Well, I did, so.
Speaker 1 (21:17):
I don't want to read. I want to watch. I
don't want to read it booth.
Speaker 4 (21:21):
Hey, they filmed a lot of those episodes before I
grew up at Nork in New Jersey.
Speaker 1 (21:27):
I'll tell you a funny story till I don't know
it's funny.
Speaker 2 (21:29):
So one of my first trips to Boston, this guy Vinnie,
who used to call the show. So I lost a
bet and Vinnie. I had to buy pizza for Vinnie
and all his But it's just he's actually was a
Giants fan. When the damn Patriots lost that stupid Super
Bowl of the Giants great, it was terrible, so I
had to go.
Speaker 1 (21:48):
I went to Boston. I bought him like pizza.
Speaker 2 (21:49):
I went to this order a pizzas famous pizza place
in East Boston. So but Vinnie, like he rolled out
the red carpet right. He took me around Boston. It
was great, and he he took me to some chop
shop in shady part. It wasn't in Boston proper, it
was like outside Boston. And I gotta be careful because
I don't know thin guy might be listening. But the
guy then he's like, oh yeah. One of the writers
(22:12):
of the Sopranos based it on this this guy that
ran this chop shop. Part of it was based on
this guy in Boston, and he wrote the became the Sopranos.
Speaker 4 (22:21):
Yeah, so that's a that's a little known fact. Very good,
you know. And one last thing I got.
Speaker 2 (22:31):
Was that was that the I have another fun factor
later that was not the fun fact of the hour, yea,
But what else did?
Speaker 1 (22:35):
What do you got buddy? Quickly? I like that.
Speaker 4 (22:37):
I got James Gandolfini's autograph. And I worked for Sprint.
I was a supervisor and they sent us to Nashville
in the hotel for some supervisor conference. Coming out and
here's James Gandelphini getting into his limo and I said, listen,
get an autograph. And he gave me this look like
oh man, and I said, listen, I'm sorry. I'm I'm
a Jersey boy, I said, I grew up in Newark.
So he says, okay, So he signed it. He said
(22:58):
what's your name? I said A Tilio. He looked at
me and says, that was my grandfather's name.
Speaker 2 (23:02):
So there you got cool and we were it was,
you know, James Gandel Finniy abtually left weight, left us
too soon, left us mortal coil.
Speaker 9 (23:11):
Right.
Speaker 1 (23:11):
We would add like, how many soprano movies would they
have made? Two or three or four?
Speaker 2 (23:15):
It would have been a bunch of soprano movies.
Speaker 1 (23:17):
But you can't.
Speaker 2 (23:18):
You can't make a Sopranos movie without Tony Soprano.
Speaker 1 (23:21):
That was the whole the whole thing, exactly.
Speaker 4 (23:22):
Yeah, that's why I went to his son. It's not
the same.
Speaker 1 (23:25):
Yeah, all right, well, thank you, all right, go get
some gobbabool. All right, there you go, honorary plies on.
Look at that out stand. Let's go to who do
we have here?
Speaker 2 (23:35):
Blind?
Speaker 1 (23:36):
Scott is on. He's been on hold the entire show,
the entire show. You've been on hold, line Scott. How's
the show so far?
Speaker 11 (23:43):
Oh it's pretty good. I give it an A plus.
The best left fielder of all time is Barry Bonds.
The second best is Man.
Speaker 2 (23:51):
No no, no, no, no, no no no, that's incorrect.
Those guys are not good. The question that the exercise
was good. Defensive left fielder Barry Bond's most famous moment
other than steroids is being unable to throw out Sid
Breen from left field, who was about as fast as
I am with the Pirate the.
Speaker 11 (24:10):
Most games that left field, and that's what AI.
Speaker 2 (24:13):
But he's not and that's what a okay, oh my god.
Speaker 11 (24:15):
All right, but here's another thing.
Speaker 2 (24:18):
And maybe Ramirez, what was his claim to fame with
the Red Sox urinating in the Green Monster between innings?
That was his good.
Speaker 11 (24:25):
People are still talking about that all week in Nick
Kurt Schwing had really good audio too. I don't know
if you heard him on in Nashville. I mean, I
love Kurt Show, and I got to say I'm on
his side again.
Speaker 4 (24:35):
I heard what he said.
Speaker 6 (24:36):
He just goes off the cuff.
Speaker 11 (24:38):
He says stuff about himself that he doesn't you know
that that he doesn't relate to personal experience, and he
makes it like it's fact. And I think it's great
for sports radio. I think Boston should put him back
on sports radio at any type of drive. And you
know what one thing I got to say is the
phone company last week, man, I hate those guys. When
the phones were out, I googled some stuff that was
(24:59):
like one of the things I googled was is it
better to live in the apartment by yourself or in
a mental hospital? Just to see what AI would say.
It was tough man. Without the phones working, dude, you still.
Speaker 2 (25:10):
Got way my way, you said it with stuff, you
still got through. You were one of the only people
that kept getting through. We don't know how you got through.
We think you cheated somehow, like maybe you put all
the other phone lines down, but then you called the.
Speaker 1 (25:20):
Police because the phone lines went down, so you probably
didn't do that.
Speaker 11 (25:23):
I could still get through, So the problem was I
was still getting through, but the calls weren't that cooks.
Speaker 9 (25:27):
There was pressure.
Speaker 11 (25:28):
It was the only line, so you had to go
to me right away, and like I was ready, but
the mood gets all messed up, and you know, I
dislike myself just as much as everybody else. But I'm
not gonna listen to it all the time because I
am one of the biggest times I get talking about
the mafia. I am the mafia. You know, I could
talk about it all day long. I'm trying to figure
out how I'm gonna make two hundred dollars today as
(25:50):
this guy from Florida who's reliving his Jersey boy moving
because he grew up in New Wark.
Speaker 2 (25:56):
Now you're ripping it. How dare you how you did.
Speaker 5 (25:59):
I mean, he did it pretty good call.
Speaker 11 (26:00):
But he don't call often, and when he does, it's
the same call. We like it once a quarter, you
know what I mean?
Speaker 2 (26:06):
All right, right, I gotta go plug Fred Touch plug
the Fred Toucher Morning Show and I'll hang up. But
go ahead, plug it. Toucher and Hardy.
Speaker 11 (26:15):

worried what I was going to do when he was gone.
You know, it's affected me. My mom told me to
get some help.
Speaker 2 (26:24):

Speaker 6 (31:36):
Man, are you how no one would watch this series?
And twenty people watch the watch the end of it.
Speaker 2 (31:43):
Hey, it wasn't. It wasn't twenty million, It was sixty million.
Speaker 1 (31:46):
And it was the.
Speaker 2 (31:47):
Lowest rated finals in eighteen years overall, eighteen years, eighteen years,
eighteen years, twenty oh seven.
Speaker 5 (32:00):
It was the World champions again.
Speaker 6 (32:03):
Listen, listen to me, Caruso. Caruso was fantastic. Man took
down that idiot Lebron James thing.
Speaker 11 (32:11):
Did you see that?
Speaker 6 (32:12):
He said?
Speaker 2 (32:12):
The real He wondered, Well, I did? I did enjoy that?
Speaker 12 (32:15):
He pointed.
Speaker 2 (32:16):
He pointed out it was a Mickey Mouse ring. It
wasn't Mickey Mouse Ring.
Speaker 5 (32:20):
Championship with the Suns or not had a fighting championship
with the Bakers. Man, I mean if you can't get that.
We're one of the all time greatest teams ever.
Speaker 6 (32:32):
We're gonna come for the Bulls Wind record next year.
Man oh man, but you got it.
Speaker 5 (32:40):
You got it it. Then you you hate having to
talk about it.
Speaker 4 (32:45):
I know it.
Speaker 2 (32:45):
I don't have to talk about it anymore. It's over with.
It's done.
Speaker 1 (32:49):
That's it. We're done.
Speaker 5 (32:50):
Yeah, that's right, it's over.
Speaker 4 (32:52):
But you love it.
Speaker 6 (32:53):
You love the Caruso the Lakers championship doesn't.
Speaker 2 (32:57):
Well, that was legit and that ends all debate. It
ends all debate. I know it's great nose. Laker historians
have nothing. It's all over there done twenty twenty, the
most fraudulent championship of all time, and a guy on
the team, Alex Caruso, admitted it. He let the secret out.
This is as big a revelation as when a member
(33:19):
of the cheating Astros explained how they were cheating. Mister
fires there breaking news.
Speaker 6 (33:26):
Man, Caruso has just become my all time favorite pro
pro basketball player in history. A guy who's on the
Bakers literally has the ring and says it's totally fraudulent.
Speaker 1 (33:41):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (33:42):
In fact, I heard a rumor that Caruso is going
to trade the Mickey Mouse ring. He wants two Goofy
rings and a Donald Duck ring is what he would like.
So he's trying to get that. So all right, I
gotta go, thank you, go away. Let's say a load
to Stanley, who's in the Commonwealth. Hello, Stanley, welcome, Hey,
how you doing in Stanley?
Speaker 5 (34:02):
Uh?
Speaker 8 (34:03):
Working up the job.
Speaker 5 (34:04):
And then you know, raising raising my son.
Speaker 2 (34:08):
I got you all right, Well you're on the air now.
We don't have a lot of time, but it's all yours.
Speaker 5 (34:12):
Go ahead, okay, okay, I'll keep I'll keep it sure,
I'll keep it short.
Speaker 8 (34:15):
The red talks. Uh, the move just trained at the
mean of twenty twenties, the modern day bay booth trade,
I mean curse. The second thing is Adam Silver ruined basketball.
When I say Adam Silver ruined basketball, this second aprin nonsense,
I'm not getting. I can't even get it with a
sack that we train to win one of our assets
that helped us win a championship. And the only person
(34:37):
we can blame on this is the owner of the
owner of the.
Speaker 2 (34:42):
Well you you well, Adam Silver allowed it. But it's
all the small or mid sized teams all voted for it.
They all they were out. They outnumbered the big market teams.
But they're gonna change it eventually because the ratings, even
though the game seven did okay, the overall ratings for
the worse than seventeen years. If that happens again next year,
(35:03):
they'll be panic at the disco on Fifth Avenue in Manhattan,
at the NBA offices, they'll freak out.
Speaker 1 (35:09):
They'll change it.
Speaker 8 (35:09):
You think six finals against Dallas, Now, this is.
Speaker 2 (35:14):
The worst cit the set it was seven. It's twenty
twenty five. So seven Spurs swept the Cadavers in Lebron.
Speaker 1 (35:22):
That was the seven finals.
Speaker 8 (35:24):
So oh that was that was a terrible finals day.
I'm gonna say that the more than nine and a
half wins this year, we're gonna win our division. That's
all I'm gonna take.
Speaker 2 (35:34):
All right, you've said it, now go away, thank you,
all right, I'm glad to hear from you.
