Speaker 3 (03:02):
The crown.
Speaker 2 (03:04):
Is yours and our lead story this hour not from
the Monday night game. It did go to overtime. Jalen
Hurts had not one, not two, not three, not four?
How about five turnovers in the game, four interceptions including
a game sealing interceptions. Philadelphia down by a field goal
in overtime, they matriculated the ball down deep in Charger territory.
Speaker 3 (03:24):
They were on their.
Speaker 2 (03:25):
Way to scoring a touchdown until Jalen Hurts sealed the
game for the Jim Harbaugh Chargers.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
As the Lightning Bolts get the win.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
But our lead this hour is from Bolt to Moore.
Another team that was supposed to be good that is
not good. A team that was supposed to be good
that is not good. That would be the Baltimore football team.
The Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson having a devil of a time,
Devil of a time recently in Baltimore. That led to
former NFL defensive back turned Amazon broadcaster Richard Sherman implying
(04:02):
there's some funny business going on with Lamar Jackson and
that there's an unspecified injury that Lamar is dealing with.
Speaker 3 (04:12):
So there's something going on.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
The Ravens, who started the year like crap played okay
for a few weeks and now are back to being
crapola as they lose to the Pittsburgh Steelers and made
Aaron Rodgers look like he knew what he was doing,
something that hasn't happened very often this year in Pittsburgh.
So that's the story. It's good jumping off point. Let
us discuss the question for the class. As we discuss
(04:39):
Richard Sherman hinting that there's something going on with Lamar
Jackson and the Ravens, So how do you digest this one?
So I've got Gap, Dungeon Master, and the coasters, and
we will combine all of these things together and we're
(05:00):
gonna make a Smorgasborg. We've got Goba Ghoul to the
right and we've got Baba Gnooche to the left, and
we'll throw in the middle.
Speaker 3 (05:09):
There we're gonna throw some delicious pastrami sandwiches, all right.
Speaker 2 (05:13):
So to lead off here, how do you digest the
story where Richard Sherman's saying there's an injury here.
Speaker 3 (05:22):
So there's definitely something going on. We know that.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
And Lamar looks like the shell of shells right now.
And he had been the spark plug for the Baltimore
football team. You watch the Ravens.
Speaker 3 (05:37):
These days and he's like a damp box of matches.
He's just it's not real good.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
It's a mess, and he's no longer a spark blog.
And John Harbaugh is at a fork in the road,
and the Ravens are at a fork in the road
right now because neither lane is pretty.
Speaker 3 (05:56):
He got two lanes. There's a lot of traffic on
one lane. The other lane there's not as much traffic,
but there's a lot.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
Of cliffs and it's a slippery road and you might
fall off the cliff and the game over.
Speaker 4 (06:08):
That's it.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
So that's about lay number one, number one, Lay number
one one.
Speaker 3 (06:14):
You've got.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
You've got the Ravens who are hiding an injury. They're
using gamesmanship that Lamar's hurt. They're in classic NFL cloak
and dagger stuff as oh, we can't say the injury, okay.
Lay number two is Lamar has just been tossed around
so much like a pinball on the Coney Island arcade
circuit that he's just completely messed up. All the dings,
(06:39):
the dens, the booboos, the chiropractic disasters of playing football,
the way Lamar plays football are finally catching up to him.
And the lifestyle that he's lived and the you know,
up all night doing everything and all that.
Speaker 3 (06:54):
It catches up to you eventually. And Lamar we knew
coming in.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
They said, well, Lamar, if he's good, you know he's
he's gonna be here for a good time, not a
long time. Like this is not gonna be a ballplayer
that plays until his forties. This is gonna be a
guy that you get a lot out of for a
few years and then kind of fades away. So the
concern is that's already started, that it's lay number two
that's already started, and it's the NFL's erosion tax is
(07:21):
what it is. Last five games. Last five games, Lamar
has two touchdowns and four interceptions, is averaging less than
seven yards per pass. Attempt and has a passer rating
of seventy. None of those numbers are good, Not a
single one of those numbers are good. And lately Lamar
he was the mister MVP guy, and lately he's been
(07:43):
the gap, as in generic average player. That's what he is.
He's the gap lately, generic average player. And it's a problem.
It's not a drop off. It's like a freight elevator
plunging to the basement from the thirteenth floor. Is what's
going going on right now and the last month, Lamar
Jackson is the thirty sixth ranked quarterback in the NFL,
(08:06):
behind Tyrod Taylor of the Jets, Marcus Mariota of the
Washington football team, and Kirk Cousins, who I think is
on one leg might be on like a leg and
a half.
Speaker 3 (08:19):
But either way, it's not good. It's not good.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
So that you know what that is for Lamar Jackson,
That is your face in the bowl of spaghetti that
you just passed out and faced down in the bowl
of spaghetti. Now, we are believers in the Iceberg theory.
Speaker 3 (08:34):
You know the Iceberg theory.
Speaker 4 (08:35):
You know that.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
Yeah, of course you're shaking your head, yes, or nodding
your head, Yes, you know what the Iceberg theory is.
So the Iceberg theory is that any information that we get,
it's like ten percent of what's actually going on and
ninety percent beneath the surface. It's called the Iceberg theory.
And whatever's underwater with Lamar Lamar Jackson, it's the part
(08:59):
that sinks ships. Because the Ravens, much like the Chiefs,
are in serious stranger danger of missing the playoffs. And
it's pretty wild.
Speaker 4 (09:10):
Man.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
You look at Baltimore and Kansas City and the situations
they're in right now, and it's like, Wow, these are
supposed the heavyweight teams in the AFC and in danger
of not making the postseason.
Speaker 4 (09:21):
Now.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
Furthermore, speaking of one of the teams is also not
going to make the playoffs. It looks like in Dallas
by what a missed opportunity by the Cowboys, What a
missed opportunity by the Dallas Cowboy. Philadelphia is trying to
give away the division and nobody wants it. Nobody wants
the NFC East. You look around, the Giants aren't even trying.
The Washington Commanders were one hit wonders. They're frauds that
(09:43):
run last year was a fraud. Jaden Daniels sucks. They're
not playing well in any phase of the game in
Washington and the only hope would be the Dallas Cowboys.
And how's that going. It was good for a couple
of weeks, but that's it. Well, now there's some new
information out see this Oneorge Pickens. So, George Pickens is
feeding the days of our lives drama O rama in Dallas. Yes,
(10:09):
coach Brian Schottenheimer shoddy. Brian Schottenheimer said that he did
have a conversation with mister Pickens the wide receiver after
his social media attack on Richard Sherman. The aforementioned Richard Sherman,
(10:29):
the former NFL defensive back you might remember on the
Amazon Richard Sherman claimed claimed that Pickens was, let's just say,
dogging it our Yeah, he was not giving full effort
in the loss to the Lions, called Pigins quote uninterested
(10:52):
and quote disengaged.
Speaker 3 (10:55):
I think the word apathy would apply.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
So Pickins caught five passes five passes in that game
for thirty seven yards in the loss to the MotorCity kiddies.
And he then responded the day after in a since
deleted social media post. Reminder, you cannot delete social media post.
It's still there. So Pickins responded to that, and I'm
(11:23):
gonna repeat here these are the words of one of
the great orders of our time, one of the great
speakers of our time, George Pickens, a real scholar, a
poet and a scholar, a gentlemanly man. So here is
what Pickens had to say. He responded to Sherman's by saying,
and it's funny because I thought former players would know
(11:43):
that such a pussy willow ass Richard Sherman, who, by
the way, he said, btw eight sh without the legion
of boom, all right. So to that, Brian Schottenheimer responded.
He said, I did talk to George about a lot
(12:03):
of things. I'm gonna keep it between George and I.
Schottenheimer said, I love watching the guy play football. I'll
just kind of leave it at that. I think the
guy has more fun playing football than most people. I
think when we do that, I think that's usually a
recipe when you're a talent as talented as he is.
That's why he can impact games. Blah blah blah blah blah.
(12:25):
So that was a whole lot of words. That was
like a word.
Speaker 3 (12:29):
Buffet and there's really not a lot there.
Speaker 4 (12:31):
He gave me.
Speaker 3 (12:31):
Go to the buffet, and it's like, well, where's the
good food.
Speaker 2 (12:33):
Well, we don't have the good food, but I want
the good food. But it's we're making money because we're
selling you the cheap food. We can't sell you the
good food. We'd have to charge you more. But I
want the good food, but you got to pay more
for that. So here's the question on this one coach
Cowboys coach Brian Schottenheimer admitting he had a conversation implying
it was about George Pickens and his social media dust
(12:55):
up with Richard Sherman.
Speaker 3 (12:57):
So how do you think this went?
Speaker 2 (12:59):
Yeah, well, based on the response of Schottenheimer saying, it's.
Speaker 3 (13:02):
All about fun. We want to have fun.
Speaker 2 (13:06):
Based on that, it went over about as well as
an ice storm in Texas, right that this was not
some hard nosed drill sergeant moment in the cartoon bubble
to the right side of my head, there's a cartoon
bubble and shot, he's not that guy.
Speaker 3 (13:26):
You're not that guy. Pal, You're not that guy. He's
not that guy. And so the way I look at it.
He's more like the guidance counselor Brian Schottenheimer. Players coach
right players coach.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
He's like, hey, George, buddy, maybe you know, don't call
Richard Sherman a pussy willow on social media. Real backbone stuff,
real backbone stuff. So Shottenheimer pretends that he's the dungeon Master,
the dungeon master. However, he's actually running.
Speaker 3 (14:01):
A day spa.
Speaker 2 (14:02):
He's in the dungeon and he's got a couple of jacuzzis,
he's got a steam room. There's people doing hot yoga
off to the left. His discipline, I imagine the Cowboys
discipline for George Pickens is uh, Hey, George, I got
I gotta punish you. I don't want to do it,
but I gotta punish you. Well, what are you gonna do, Coach, Well,
we've decided, after meeting with my assistant coaches, we've decided
(14:22):
we're gonna punish you and we're gonna cut you down
to one pack of Twizzlers a day. But Coach, I
like two packs a day. I know, I hate to
be the bad guy, but you can only have one
pack of Twisters. I know you like your candy George
in fact, you know what, I'll give you some some
mic and heights, but I don't like mike and heights.
Speaker 3 (14:39):
But it's just another candid.
Speaker 2 (14:41):
It's just for a couple of days, and then I
can say I can tell the media I punished you
and we kept it in the house.
Speaker 3 (14:46):
Okay, I'll take the one box of twisters. That's it.
I'm good.
Speaker 2 (14:50):
That's it. Real devastating, absolutely devastating. And Pickings is He's
a walking highlight reel of unforced errors.
Speaker 3 (15:00):
He just is.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
You know, the story came out last week, missing team busses,
late the team meetings, sleepwalking in the Detroit game, and
then hitting Sherman with the cyber sledgehammer right right from
the very top, just down and not exactly the John Wooden.
Speaker 3 (15:16):
Period of period. What is it the pyramid of success?
Speaker 2 (15:19):
Remember the UCLA coach had that pyramid of success used
to be a big thing back in the day. It's
more like George Pickens, the sinkhole of self sabotage from
George Pickens.
Speaker 3 (15:29):
And he's okay, He's okay for now.
Speaker 2 (15:32):
Remember the malor math, the malor math on players like
George Pickens. As long as the production outweighs the aggravation,
you keep him. When the aggravation outweighs the production, you
pun him away. Like the Pittsburgh Steelers, George Pickens was
not very productive compared to what they expected, and so
they punted on him because he wasn't worth the headache.
(15:54):
And when that does happen, like this series, they got
rid of him. And that's how that works. This scale
right now is it's still wobbling, wobble, wobble, wobble. It's
wobbling like a bad carnival ride for George Pickens. And
life does come at you fast, and Pickens is acting lately.
Like the Steelers version, he still got the numbers for
(16:15):
the most part. You give him the Lions Cowboys game
as an outlier. See you take that off the table
right now. Last thing, we go to Cleveland, Ohio, the
Mistake by the Lake. We're following a big statistical game.
The news came out the Browns have decided that even
though we benched our quarterback for the two point good version,
(16:38):
he's our guy, we stand by our man. Okay, So
question Brown's head coach Kevin Stefanski. He's announced that Shadeur
Sanders who was the top athlete in America. Trending on
the Google this year that Shadeur Sanders will be the
starting quarterback for the rest of the twenty twenty five season,
(17:02):
the final four weeks of the regular season. So what
does this mean, Well, it means that the Factory of
Sadness is fired up and they're gonna they're they're they're
opening up a new wing. It's the experimental wing of
the Factory of Sadness. That's what they're doing here. Think
of it like Frankenstein's lab, if you will. This the
(17:26):
rest of this year is a dummy run capital D
for dummy. It's a dummy run. Is a test flight
over Lake Erie airspace. That's what the Browns are doing here,
and the Browns they obviously want to see if shad
Ear Sanders can be kind of like that Arizona State
mascot Sparky, and is he capable of jump starting the
(17:46):
morbid Cleveland Browns offense here without burning the entire neighborhood
down around the stadium. Time will tell regarding that queue
up the coasters, yackety yack, and you don't walk back,
because that's what this is, right, you should have Sanders
had a big game against the worst team in football
coming into Tennessee Titans, and a lot of that I
(18:07):
think it was two hundred and sixty yards came on
yards after catch the Yakay Act, and some people are
killing him.
Speaker 3 (18:14):
If it works, that's mine.
Speaker 4 (18:16):
You know.
Speaker 2 (18:16):
Joe Montana through a lot of short passes to Jerry
Rice and it turned out pretty good. Tom Brady through
a lot of short passes to Wes Welker and Julian
Edelman and Rob Gronkowski and those turned out to be
big plays.
Speaker 3 (18:32):
So I don't have a problem with the Yakay Act. Yeah,
you do have to have the ability.
Speaker 2 (18:36):
To do other stuff, and if you don't have that,
you're absolutely porked. That's the problem. And so the Browns are.
Speaker 3 (18:43):
If you look at.
Speaker 2 (18:44):
Their situation, right, Stefanski's essentially telling Shuder Sander's like, hey, listen,
should go out there and grab the brass ring. Of course,
in this case, it's more like a brown ring. And
I don't know what that brown is, but it's a
brown ring. And the Browns barreling towards a top five
pick get again in the twenty twenty six NFL Draft.
Speaker 3 (19:05):
It's a Berth right there there. Every year, the Browns
right now would have.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
The number four pick number in the twenty twenty six draft,
and lurking in the shadows like a horror movie cameo appearance,
Deshaun Watson. He's back, allegedly, he'll be back next year.
A lot of guaranteed money. So guaranteed money and all
Deshaun Watson will be back. And that's the deck. That's
(19:31):
the deck of cards that the Browns have right now.
And as Cleveland is preparing to shuffle the cards, something
they do all the time, like a Vegas blackjack dealer
drinking a lot of red bull. So this is Schadur's audition,
this is the table read, this is it, and it's
his tryout and his mallor mystery theater moment.
Speaker 3 (19:55):
Will he succeed or will he fail? Inquiring mine want
to know, but you got to show them something or
else or now. There's also the problem that these games
are totally meaningless in terms of they're like exhibition games
to the Browns. The Browns They're done, that's it. They're
not going anywhere. Like always, the Browns are the personification,
(20:18):
the epitome of a bad, bad football team. That's what
they are.
Speaker 2 (20:24):
And so you look at the Browns, they're three and
ten right now, they've got the Bears, Bills, Steelers, and
Ben Goals to close out the year. Now, the Bears
and the Bills are playoff teams, so those are big
time opponents. You can play the role of spoiler. The
Steelers are also at the moment a playoff team because
of the division. And then you got the Ben gals
who are just.
Speaker 3 (20:45):
Kind of hanging out and it's like, we're getting paid
to play football, so we're gonna play football.
Speaker 2 (20:49):
We're not that good. Well, it's the Battle of Ohio.

song is the thirty six pills in the morning, thirty
(26:14):
six pills at night.
Speaker 3 (26:15):
No, No, that's elsewhere. Oh, that's elsewhere. Okay, all right,
thank you Rick. This great Rick and Mary. Let's go
to Alame de lou, a fan favorite in the Bay
Area at the famous bar or the is it the
Kingfisher Bar? They get that right. It's in Oakland. I
think the Kingfish, Kingfish, Kingfish, the Kingfish Pub. Where's it at?
Speaker 9 (26:38):
Oakland, California.
Speaker 3 (26:39):
Beautiful Oakland, California, very safe community. Yeah, okay, we don't
even owned by Tim Salmon.
Speaker 9 (26:46):
It is not owned by Tim Salmon.
Speaker 4 (26:48):
Justin Oh okay.
Speaker 10 (26:50):
So I want to actually.
Speaker 9 (26:51):
Include Ben, if you'll allow me, everybody on the show
right now. Should Notre Dame have made the playoff?
Speaker 3 (27:01):
Yes, that's from Ben. I don't. I don't watch college football.
Speaker 4 (27:06):
I have no idea.
Speaker 9 (27:07):
Oh okay, never mind. Notre Dame not making the college
football playoffs is something that is like so confounding to me,
and I'm not you see you agreeing with me about something.
Speaker 3 (27:18):
Well, my my positions.
Speaker 2 (27:19):
I would have put them in because it's a TV
show and they're good television, so I would have put
them in. However, they did lose head to head with
my I understand the rationale, like they lost to Miami.
That's always been the first tiebreaker. Alime to lou Is,
you lose on it head to head. You're not but like,
what do we need?
Speaker 1 (27:36):
You know?
Speaker 2 (27:36):
The problem is you we we gotta James Madison in,
you know, we gotta put these these I'm on the
same page.
Speaker 9 (27:43):
As you right now, and I think we're having a moment.
Speaker 2 (27:45):
Are we having a moment? Oh my god, we're having
them on Ben and Alameda. Lou I sucked in the
third person having a moment.
Speaker 9 (27:51):
You big cookie loving contrarian.
Speaker 7 (27:53):
You. I just.
Speaker 9 (28:01):
On the rushes for minus four yards and has three
losses and Notre Dame doesn't get in.
Speaker 3 (28:10):
Yeah, well, there's an there's obviously an sec le.
Speaker 2 (28:14):
The people in college football are bothered by the fact
that Notre Dame does it on their own.
Speaker 9 (28:19):
You know that, Like, no, I completely agree. It likes
to be I'm happy that I'm calling into a Fox
program right now, because if it was ESPN, you would
have to toe the company line.
Speaker 3 (28:30):
Oh god, yeah, I would be terrible. I would hate
to do that. I'm not good at that. I wish
I was good.
Speaker 9 (28:35):
I'd have such a I would have such a better
work for an ESPN program.
Speaker 3 (28:38):
I don't I don't think he just doesn't watch college football.
Speaker 4 (28:43):
He's not.
Speaker 3 (28:43):
That's not his and I I watch. I don't talk
about it a lot, but I'll watch on Saturday. I
got the TV on. I'm watching the big couple of
big games every day.
Speaker 9 (28:50):
I watched Notre Dame on NBC, and I don't give
a dame about the SEC.
Speaker 3 (28:55):
Okay, all right, there's I was just gonna follow up
by saying no, but I was gonna up without me, Loui.
Speaker 2 (29:00):
He wanted to end the call. And I know you're
still listening to you turned on the radio to hear
yourself on the radio. But my point would be, yet
Notre Dame should have been in however, to not go
to a ball game as a douche.
Speaker 3 (29:10):
Move, So like, what are you doing? You know, it's like,
come on, I'm taking my ball and going home.
Speaker 4 (29:16):
It's weak.
Speaker 3 (29:17):
You know who's not weak? Frank the Tank Guy's never weak.
He's Frank the Tank.
Speaker 10 (29:22):
Hello, Frank, Oh Bill Miller.
Speaker 2 (29:26):
Frank, if I was any better, I'd be a Hawkeye,
but not an Iowa Hawkeye because their offense still sucks.
Speaker 10 (29:33):
Yeah, they ought to get rid of a coach. Parents.
Speaker 3 (29:36):
He has got a life he's a tenured professor. He
can't get rid of a tenured professor.
Speaker 10 (29:42):
Well that's their problem. And the only thing good about
that that Iowa City is the hospital there. I'd be
about it.
Speaker 3 (29:52):
So save the hospital, get rid of everything else.
Speaker 10 (29:55):
Yeah, I want to know. We ain't saying they should
keep should bench ja J McCarthy and start Cartson wins
the rest of the season, Well that would be.
Speaker 3 (30:08):
That would be.
Speaker 2 (30:09):
You know, this is why people love sports talk radio.
So you're advising the Minnesota Vikings to start Carson Wentz
and bench JJ McCarthy. Of course, this after JJ McCarthy
just absolutely sliced up the Washington football team and you're
calling and oh, by the way, Carson Wentz is out
(30:29):
for the year. So this is you're oer for two
on your takes. That's oh for that's like the worst
take ever on a sports radio show. You're calling up
to say a guy who had three touchdown passes and
no interceptions and a thirty one to zero win should
be benched for a.
Speaker 3 (30:46):
Guy who's in rehab.
Speaker 2 (30:48):
Right now that no one else has this content other
than sports talk radio, we're the only ones.
Speaker 10 (30:55):
That's true.
Speaker 3 (30:56):
Do you have any other talks. But would you like
to see that?
Speaker 1 (31:00):
You want to do you want to?
Speaker 3 (31:01):
I said, you want the Timberwolves to bench Karl Anthony Towns.
Speaker 10 (31:05):
Are you going in New York?
Speaker 7 (31:07):
Now?
Speaker 3 (31:07):
Okay, just check it.
Speaker 2 (31:10):
Now the now the Minnesota, Minnesota, the Minnesota Twins. Now
is it true you think the Minnesota Twins should.
Speaker 4 (31:18):
Put speak of that?
Speaker 10 (31:20):
Speaking of it?
Speaker 3 (31:21):
I was gonna even get my line out.
Speaker 10 (31:22):
Go ahead, Yah, what the owner? The owners, the owner,
the owners, the owner's they exactly from West the Moyes.
Speaker 4 (31:30):
Actually, you know what that is.
Speaker 2 (31:33):
That's a fun fact. That's a Ben Mather Show fun
fact from in Iowa.
Speaker 10 (31:38):
Carl, the late Carl Poland is actually from West ones.
Speaker 3 (31:42):
I will brag about that. The way the Twins franchises
has had no success, you know a long time.
Speaker 10 (31:49):
His son, actually his son actually took over the franchise.
Speaker 2 (31:52):
I thought they were going to sell the team. Why
don't you buy the Twins? You can buy the Twins.
Speaker 10 (31:57):
I wish I could.
Speaker 3 (31:58):
Why don't you don't be lazy, Let's go ahead and
buy the Twins.
Speaker 5 (32:01):

Speaker 3 (32:02):
Go fund me to buy the Twins.
Speaker 10 (32:04):

You're not you're not a fan of Iowa. You live there,
You've always been Frank from Iowa.
Speaker 10 (32:11):

Speaker 3 (32:14):
You know you don't like it though, you know.
Speaker 10 (32:17):
Iowa was really a Cubs Cubs country, really, yeah, they really? Yeah,
because the Triple A affiliate is not that far from
here there on Scott Street.
Speaker 3 (32:28):
We're learning everything about Iowa. Everything about that's right.
Speaker 10 (32:32):
They're known for tender loins and all kind of food here.
Speaker 3 (32:37):
You can get that pretty At some point, we gotta
go to Iowa for a meet and greet. We gotta Cary.
Speaker 2 (32:41):
I used to do this show with a woman named
Karen Kay, and the local station flew Karen in for
a meet and greet. She went to an Iowa state
Iowa state football.
Speaker 10 (32:49):
Game games, So it's be a half hour wine from here.
And then yeah, and she Larry Cotler case he passed
away a couple of years ago.
Speaker 3 (32:59):
Oh did he Larry was behind that? Yeah? Yeah, I remember.
Speaker 10 (33:02):
That's the way. A couple of years ago he got
drownded in a in a rainstorm. If I remember, Craig.

Speaker 12 (33:40):
Did you stay for the overtime?
Speaker 3 (33:43):
No? I I had to leave early because of traffic
to get out of there. I did leave early to.
Speaker 4 (33:50):
On the radio, Right I did.
Speaker 3 (33:51):
I did listen on the radio, and I enjoyed listening
on the radio. I like listening to NFL games on
the radio. It's fine.
Speaker 5 (33:58):
Did rated?
Speaker 10 (33:58):
I didn't? Coop got my songs on the email, so
he should send them.
Speaker 11 (34:02):
Along to the rainer.
Speaker 3 (34:04):
I tried to play them today. I thought about it.
I thought about it twice. No, you're not going to
play We didn't think about them.
Speaker 11 (34:11):
We did.
Speaker 10 (34:11):
They were in our line.
Speaker 3 (34:12):
You were complaining with rain and we don't have enough songs,
so we need all the songs we can get. Wes
two songs? Are they any good?
Speaker 1 (34:20):
My thing?
Speaker 3 (34:20):
Is the Lepton makes.
Speaker 9 (34:22):
Brilliant top hits.
Speaker 3 (34:24):
Anyway, Well you're not, You're not biased at all.
Speaker 11 (34:28):
No, but well my kids taught me edit them, so
they're probably better than what they were. It's cold here.
Speaker 10 (34:33):
It's twelve degrees.
Speaker 7 (34:34):
It's sub zero.
Speaker 2 (34:36):
Okay, so this is breaking news. It's cold in Massachusetts
in December. This never happens.
Speaker 11 (34:43):
It's the coldest December we've had for years. And even
my rabbits are have quotes on outside today. I can't
believe it. I have a theory today. I didn't. That
wasn't even a joke. It's for real, not to day.
I didn't cause them to be not picked. I know why,
because they're spoiled brats. They want to go home to
(35:05):
their families. No, they're doing their fact they're doing their
finals this week anyways, and they can be home with
their families and watch football. I mean, they don't have
to go to a book.
Speaker 3 (35:15):
I'm pretty sure they're not going to watch football. I'm
pretty sure they're gonna be on like video games and
TikTok and all that stuff.
Speaker 11 (35:22):
The right phone. And I again, Ben, you're wrong about
the soccer theory.
Speaker 3 (35:26):
I'm not wrong about the soccer series. That's a bad Joe,
don't question my take.
Speaker 11 (35:31):
The take it well, the fact is Hatter had the
World Cup and it was one hundred and something degreased
and that's the first time they introduced the water breaks.
The ads on the sidelines have been running for about
fifteen years now.
Speaker 3 (35:45):
The reason they're doing this here in the state, it
doesn't get as hot here as it does in the Middle.
Speaker 10 (35:49):
East, so well probably in Mexico.
Speaker 11 (35:51):
Mexico probably will.
Speaker 3 (35:53):
Yeah, Okay, they're doing it, Mike because of advertising, because
television has been complaining they don't have enough spots. That's
why they're They're just claiming it's for player safety. It's
not for player safety. It's because they want to put
more commercials in the game. That's why they're doing it.
And that's it. Let's go to Dick in Dayton. Hello, Dick,
sy're welcome, Dick.

Speaker 3 (03:02):
The crown.
Speaker 2 (03:04):
Is yours and our lead story this hour not from
the Monday night game. It did go to overtime. Jalen
Hurts had not one, not two, not three, not four?
How about five turnovers in the game, four interceptions including
a game sealing interceptions. Philadelphia down by a field goal
in overtime, they matriculated the ball down deep in Charger territory.
Speaker 3 (03:24):
They were on their.
Speaker 2 (03:25):
Way to scoring a touchdown until Jalen Hurts sealed the
game for the Jim Harbaugh Chargers.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
As the Lightning Bolts get the win.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
But our lead this hour is from Bolt to Moore.
Another team that was supposed to be good that is
not good. A team that was supposed to be good
that is not good. That would be the Baltimore football team.
The Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson having a devil of a time,
Devil of a time recently in Baltimore. That led to
former NFL defensive back turned Amazon broadcaster Richard Sherman implying
(04:02):
there's some funny business going on with Lamar Jackson and
that there's an unspecified injury that Lamar is dealing with.
Speaker 3 (04:12):
So there's something going on.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
The Ravens, who started the year like crap played okay
for a few weeks and now are back to being
crapola as they lose to the Pittsburgh Steelers and made
Aaron Rodgers look like he knew what he was doing,
something that hasn't happened very often this year in Pittsburgh.
So that's the story. It's good jumping off point. Let
us discuss the question for the class. As we discuss
(04:39):
Richard Sherman hinting that there's something going on with Lamar
Jackson and the Ravens, So how do you digest this one?
So I've got Gap, Dungeon Master, and the coasters, and
we will combine all of these things together and we're
(05:00):
gonna make a Smorgasborg. We've got Goba Ghoul to the
right and we've got Baba Gnooche to the left, and
we'll throw in the middle.
Speaker 3 (05:09):
There we're gonna throw some delicious pastrami sandwiches, all right.
Speaker 2 (05:13):
So to lead off here, how do you digest the
story where Richard Sherman's saying there's an injury here.
Speaker 3 (05:22):
So there's definitely something going on. We know that.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
And Lamar looks like the shell of shells right now.
And he had been the spark plug for the Baltimore
football team. You watch the Ravens.
Speaker 3 (05:37):
These days and he's like a damp box of matches.
He's just it's not real good.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
It's a mess, and he's no longer a spark blog.
And John Harbaugh is at a fork in the road,
and the Ravens are at a fork in the road
right now because neither lane is pretty.
Speaker 3 (05:56):
He got two lanes. There's a lot of traffic on
one lane. The other lane there's not as much traffic,
but there's a lot.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
Of cliffs and it's a slippery road and you might
fall off the cliff and the game over.
Speaker 4 (06:08):
That's it.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
So that's about lay number one, number one, Lay number
one one.
Speaker 3 (06:14):
You've got.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
You've got the Ravens who are hiding an injury. They're
using gamesmanship that Lamar's hurt. They're in classic NFL cloak
and dagger stuff as oh, we can't say the injury, okay.
Lay number two is Lamar has just been tossed around
so much like a pinball on the Coney Island arcade
circuit that he's just completely messed up. All the dings,
(06:39):
the dens, the booboos, the chiropractic disasters of playing football,
the way Lamar plays football are finally catching up to him.
And the lifestyle that he's lived and the you know,
up all night doing everything and all that.
Speaker 3 (06:54):
It catches up to you eventually. And Lamar we knew
coming in.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
They said, well, Lamar, if he's good, you know he's
he's gonna be here for a good time, not a
long time. Like this is not gonna be a ballplayer
that plays until his forties. This is gonna be a
guy that you get a lot out of for a
few years and then kind of fades away. So the
concern is that's already started, that it's lay number two
that's already started, and it's the NFL's erosion tax is
(07:21):
what it is. Last five games. Last five games, Lamar
has two touchdowns and four interceptions, is averaging less than
seven yards per pass. Attempt and has a passer rating
of seventy. None of those numbers are good, Not a
single one of those numbers are good. And lately Lamar
he was the mister MVP guy, and lately he's been
(07:43):
the gap, as in generic average player. That's what he is.
He's the gap lately, generic average player. And it's a problem.
It's not a drop off. It's like a freight elevator
plunging to the basement from the thirteenth floor. Is what's
going going on right now and the last month, Lamar
Jackson is the thirty sixth ranked quarterback in the NFL,
(08:06):
behind Tyrod Taylor of the Jets, Marcus Mariota of the
Washington football team, and Kirk Cousins, who I think is
on one leg might be on like a leg and
a half.
Speaker 3 (08:19):
But either way, it's not good. It's not good.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
So that you know what that is for Lamar Jackson,
That is your face in the bowl of spaghetti that
you just passed out and faced down in the bowl
of spaghetti. Now, we are believers in the Iceberg theory.
Speaker 3 (08:34):
You know the Iceberg theory.
Speaker 4 (08:35):
You know that.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
Yeah, of course you're shaking your head, yes, or nodding
your head, Yes, you know what the Iceberg theory is.
So the Iceberg theory is that any information that we get,
it's like ten percent of what's actually going on and
ninety percent beneath the surface. It's called the Iceberg theory.
And whatever's underwater with Lamar Lamar Jackson, it's the part
(08:59):
that sinks ships. Because the Ravens, much like the Chiefs,
are in serious stranger danger of missing the playoffs. And
it's pretty wild.
Speaker 4 (09:10):
Man.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
You look at Baltimore and Kansas City and the situations
they're in right now, and it's like, Wow, these are
supposed the heavyweight teams in the AFC and in danger
of not making the postseason.
Speaker 4 (09:21):
Now.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
Furthermore, speaking of one of the teams is also not
going to make the playoffs. It looks like in Dallas
by what a missed opportunity by the Cowboys, What a
missed opportunity by the Dallas Cowboy. Philadelphia is trying to
give away the division and nobody wants it. Nobody wants
the NFC East. You look around, the Giants aren't even trying.
The Washington Commanders were one hit wonders. They're frauds that
(09:43):
run last year was a fraud. Jaden Daniels sucks. They're
not playing well in any phase of the game in
Washington and the only hope would be the Dallas Cowboys.
And how's that going. It was good for a couple
of weeks, but that's it. Well, now there's some new
information out see this Oneorge Pickens. So, George Pickens is
feeding the days of our lives drama O rama in Dallas. Yes,
(10:09):
coach Brian Schottenheimer shoddy. Brian Schottenheimer said that he did
have a conversation with mister Pickens the wide receiver after
his social media attack on Richard Sherman. The aforementioned Richard Sherman,
(10:29):
the former NFL defensive back you might remember on the
Amazon Richard Sherman claimed claimed that Pickens was, let's just say,
dogging it our Yeah, he was not giving full effort
in the loss to the Lions, called Pigins quote uninterested
(10:52):
and quote disengaged.
Speaker 3 (10:55):
I think the word apathy would apply.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
So Pickins caught five passes five passes in that game
for thirty seven yards in the loss to the MotorCity kiddies.
And he then responded the day after in a since
deleted social media post. Reminder, you cannot delete social media post.
It's still there. So Pickins responded to that, and I'm
(11:23):
gonna repeat here these are the words of one of
the great orders of our time, one of the great
speakers of our time, George Pickens, a real scholar, a
poet and a scholar, a gentlemanly man. So here is
what Pickens had to say. He responded to Sherman's by saying,
and it's funny because I thought former players would know
(11:43):
that such a pussy willow ass Richard Sherman, who, by
the way, he said, btw eight sh without the legion
of boom, all right. So to that, Brian Schottenheimer responded.
He said, I did talk to George about a lot
(12:03):
of things. I'm gonna keep it between George and I.
Schottenheimer said, I love watching the guy play football. I'll
just kind of leave it at that. I think the
guy has more fun playing football than most people. I
think when we do that, I think that's usually a
recipe when you're a talent as talented as he is.
That's why he can impact games. Blah blah blah blah blah.
(12:25):
So that was a whole lot of words. That was
like a word.
Speaker 3 (12:29):
Buffet and there's really not a lot there.
Speaker 4 (12:31):
He gave me.
Speaker 3 (12:31):
Go to the buffet, and it's like, well, where's the
good food.
Speaker 2 (12:33):
Well, we don't have the good food, but I want
the good food. But it's we're making money because we're
selling you the cheap food. We can't sell you the
good food. We'd have to charge you more. But I
want the good food, but you got to pay more
for that. So here's the question on this one coach
Cowboys coach Brian Schottenheimer admitting he had a conversation implying
it was about George Pickens and his social media dust
(12:55):
up with Richard Sherman.
Speaker 3 (12:57):
So how do you think this went?
Speaker 2 (12:59):
Yeah, well, based on the response of Schottenheimer saying, it's.
Speaker 3 (13:02):
All about fun. We want to have fun.
Speaker 2 (13:06):
Based on that, it went over about as well as
an ice storm in Texas, right that this was not
some hard nosed drill sergeant moment in the cartoon bubble
to the right side of my head, there's a cartoon
bubble and shot, he's not that guy.
Speaker 3 (13:26):
You're not that guy. Pal, You're not that guy. He's
not that guy. And so the way I look at it.
He's more like the guidance counselor Brian Schottenheimer. Players coach
right players coach.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
He's like, hey, George, buddy, maybe you know, don't call
Richard Sherman a pussy willow on social media. Real backbone stuff,
real backbone stuff. So Shottenheimer pretends that he's the dungeon Master,
the dungeon master. However, he's actually running.
Speaker 3 (14:01):
A day spa.
Speaker 2 (14:02):
He's in the dungeon and he's got a couple of jacuzzis,
he's got a steam room. There's people doing hot yoga
off to the left. His discipline, I imagine the Cowboys
discipline for George Pickens is uh, Hey, George, I got
I gotta punish you. I don't want to do it,
but I gotta punish you. Well, what are you gonna do, Coach, Well,
we've decided, after meeting with my assistant coaches, we've decided
(14:22):
we're gonna punish you and we're gonna cut you down
to one pack of Twizzlers a day. But Coach, I
like two packs a day. I know, I hate to
be the bad guy, but you can only have one
pack of Twisters. I know you like your candy George
in fact, you know what, I'll give you some some
mic and heights, but I don't like mike and heights.
Speaker 3 (14:39):
But it's just another candid.
Speaker 2 (14:41):
It's just for a couple of days, and then I
can say I can tell the media I punished you
and we kept it in the house.
Speaker 3 (14:46):
Okay, I'll take the one box of twisters. That's it.
I'm good.
Speaker 2 (14:50):
That's it. Real devastating, absolutely devastating. And Pickings is He's
a walking highlight reel of unforced errors.
Speaker 3 (15:00):
He just is.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
You know, the story came out last week, missing team busses,
late the team meetings, sleepwalking in the Detroit game, and
then hitting Sherman with the cyber sledgehammer right right from
the very top, just down and not exactly the John Wooden.
Speaker 3 (15:16):
Period of period. What is it the pyramid of success?
Speaker 2 (15:19):
Remember the UCLA coach had that pyramid of success used
to be a big thing back in the day. It's
more like George Pickens, the sinkhole of self sabotage from
George Pickens.
Speaker 3 (15:29):
And he's okay, He's okay for now.
Speaker 2 (15:32):
Remember the malor math, the malor math on players like
George Pickens. As long as the production outweighs the aggravation,
you keep him. When the aggravation outweighs the production, you
pun him away. Like the Pittsburgh Steelers, George Pickens was
not very productive compared to what they expected, and so
they punted on him because he wasn't worth the headache.
(15:54):
And when that does happen, like this series, they got
rid of him. And that's how that works. This scale
right now is it's still wobbling, wobble, wobble, wobble. It's
wobbling like a bad carnival ride for George Pickens. And
life does come at you fast, and Pickens is acting lately.
Like the Steelers version, he still got the numbers for
(16:15):
the most part. You give him the Lions Cowboys game
as an outlier. See you take that off the table
right now. Last thing, we go to Cleveland, Ohio, the
Mistake by the Lake. We're following a big statistical game.
The news came out the Browns have decided that even
though we benched our quarterback for the two point good version,
(16:38):
he's our guy, we stand by our man. Okay, So
question Brown's head coach Kevin Stefanski. He's announced that Shadeur
Sanders who was the top athlete in America. Trending on
the Google this year that Shadeur Sanders will be the
starting quarterback for the rest of the twenty twenty five season,
(17:02):
the final four weeks of the regular season. So what
does this mean, Well, it means that the Factory of
Sadness is fired up and they're gonna they're they're they're
opening up a new wing. It's the experimental wing of
the Factory of Sadness. That's what they're doing here. Think
of it like Frankenstein's lab, if you will. This the
(17:26):
rest of this year is a dummy run capital D
for dummy. It's a dummy run. Is a test flight
over Lake Erie airspace. That's what the Browns are doing here,
and the Browns they obviously want to see if shad
Ear Sanders can be kind of like that Arizona State
mascot Sparky, and is he capable of jump starting the
(17:46):
morbid Cleveland Browns offense here without burning the entire neighborhood
down around the stadium. Time will tell regarding that queue
up the coasters, yackety yack, and you don't walk back,
because that's what this is, right, you should have Sanders
had a big game against the worst team in football
coming into Tennessee Titans, and a lot of that I
(18:07):
think it was two hundred and sixty yards came on
yards after catch the Yakay Act, and some people are
killing him.
Speaker 3 (18:14):
If it works, that's mine.
Speaker 4 (18:16):
You know.
Speaker 2 (18:16):
Joe Montana through a lot of short passes to Jerry
Rice and it turned out pretty good. Tom Brady through
a lot of short passes to Wes Welker and Julian
Edelman and Rob Gronkowski and those turned out to be
big plays.
Speaker 3 (18:32):
So I don't have a problem with the Yakay Act. Yeah,
you do have to have the ability.
Speaker 2 (18:36):
To do other stuff, and if you don't have that,
you're absolutely porked. That's the problem. And so the Browns are.
Speaker 3 (18:43):
If you look at.
Speaker 2 (18:44):
Their situation, right, Stefanski's essentially telling Shuder Sander's like, hey, listen,
should go out there and grab the brass ring. Of course,
in this case, it's more like a brown ring. And
I don't know what that brown is, but it's a
brown ring. And the Browns barreling towards a top five
pick get again in the twenty twenty six NFL Draft.
Speaker 3 (19:05):
It's a Berth right there there. Every year, the Browns
right now would have.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
The number four pick number in the twenty twenty six draft,
and lurking in the shadows like a horror movie cameo appearance,
Deshaun Watson. He's back, allegedly, he'll be back next year.
A lot of guaranteed money. So guaranteed money and all
Deshaun Watson will be back. And that's the deck. That's
(19:31):
the deck of cards that the Browns have right now.
And as Cleveland is preparing to shuffle the cards, something
they do all the time, like a Vegas blackjack dealer
drinking a lot of red bull. So this is Schadur's audition,
this is the table read, this is it, and it's
his tryout and his mallor mystery theater moment.
Speaker 3 (19:55):
Will he succeed or will he fail? Inquiring mine want
to know, but you got to show them something or
else or now. There's also the problem that these games
are totally meaningless in terms of they're like exhibition games
to the Browns. The Browns They're done, that's it. They're
not going anywhere. Like always, the Browns are the personification,
(20:18):
the epitome of a bad, bad football team. That's what
they are.
Speaker 2 (20:24):
And so you look at the Browns, they're three and
ten right now, they've got the Bears, Bills, Steelers, and
Ben Goals to close out the year. Now, the Bears
and the Bills are playoff teams, so those are big
time opponents. You can play the role of spoiler. The
Steelers are also at the moment a playoff team because
of the division. And then you got the Ben gals
who are just.
Speaker 3 (20:45):
Kind of hanging out and it's like, we're getting paid
to play football, so we're gonna play football.
Speaker 2 (20:49):
We're not that good. Well, it's the Battle of Ohio.
It's the Battle of Ohio. It is the Ben Mahlor Show.

Speaker 3 (24:28):
Well, not everyone can do that. Some people want to
perform live. Do it live.

Speaker 3 (25:43):
All right. There it is Rich Rich in Maryland with
his spin on all of this and he signed it.
You see what he did there, Lorraine at the end.
That was his signature. It started off. I was like, oh,
I don't know what we're doing here.
Speaker 2 (25:54):
I actually you enjoyed that. So that will be in
the system, that will be in the rotation. Yeah, maybe
that's enough. That's enough. That is a you'll never hear
that again. That was a one time performance. And Lorraine
is saying, I Am not putting that in the city.
You know that's going to go where the Hollering James
song is the thirty six pills in the morning, thirty
(26:14):
six pills at night.
Speaker 3 (26:15):
No, No, that's elsewhere. Oh, that's elsewhere. Okay, all right,
thank you Rick. This great Rick and Mary. Let's go
to Alame de lou, a fan favorite in the Bay
Area at the famous bar or the is it the
Kingfisher Bar? They get that right. It's in Oakland. I
think the Kingfish, Kingfish, Kingfish, the Kingfish Pub. Where's it at?
Speaker 9 (26:38):
Oakland, California.
Speaker 3 (26:39):
Beautiful Oakland, California, very safe community. Yeah, okay, we don't
even owned by Tim Salmon.
Speaker 9 (26:46):
It is not owned by Tim Salmon.
Speaker 4 (26:48):
Justin Oh okay.
Speaker 10 (26:50):
So I want to actually.
Speaker 9 (26:51):
Include Ben, if you'll allow me, everybody on the show
right now. Should Notre Dame have made the playoff?
Speaker 3 (27:01):
Yes, that's from Ben. I don't. I don't watch college football.
Speaker 4 (27:06):
I have no idea.
Speaker 9 (27:07):
Oh okay, never mind. Notre Dame not making the college
football playoffs is something that is like so confounding to me,
and I'm not you see you agreeing with me about something.
Speaker 3 (27:18):
Well, my my positions.
Speaker 2 (27:19):
I would have put them in because it's a TV
show and they're good television, so I would have put
them in. However, they did lose head to head with
my I understand the rationale, like they lost to Miami.
That's always been the first tiebreaker. Alime to lou Is,
you lose on it head to head. You're not but like,
what do we need?
Speaker 1 (27:36):
You know?
Speaker 2 (27:36):
The problem is you we we gotta James Madison in,
you know, we gotta put these these I'm on the
same page.
Speaker 9 (27:43):
As you right now, and I think we're having a moment.
Speaker 2 (27:45):
Are we having a moment? Oh my god, we're having
them on Ben and Alameda. Lou I sucked in the
third person having a moment.
Speaker 9 (27:51):
You big cookie loving contrarian.
Speaker 7 (27:53):
You. I just.
Speaker 9 (28:01):
On the rushes for minus four yards and has three
losses and Notre Dame doesn't get in.
Speaker 3 (28:10):
Yeah, well, there's an there's obviously an sec le.
Speaker 2 (28:14):
The people in college football are bothered by the fact
that Notre Dame does it on their own.
Speaker 9 (28:19):
You know that, Like, no, I completely agree. It likes
to be I'm happy that I'm calling into a Fox
program right now, because if it was ESPN, you would
have to toe the company line.
Speaker 3 (28:30):
Oh god, yeah, I would be terrible. I would hate
to do that. I'm not good at that. I wish
I was good.
Speaker 9 (28:35):
I'd have such a I would have such a better
work for an ESPN program.
Speaker 3 (28:38):
I don't I don't think he just doesn't watch college football.
Speaker 4 (28:43):
He's not.
Speaker 3 (28:43):
That's not his and I I watch. I don't talk
about it a lot, but I'll watch on Saturday. I
got the TV on. I'm watching the big couple of
big games every day.
Speaker 9 (28:50):
I watched Notre Dame on NBC, and I don't give
a dame about the SEC.
Speaker 3 (28:55):
Okay, all right, there's I was just gonna follow up
by saying no, but I was gonna up without me, Loui.
Speaker 2 (29:00):
He wanted to end the call. And I know you're
still listening to you turned on the radio to hear
yourself on the radio. But my point would be, yet
Notre Dame should have been in however, to not go
to a ball game as a douche.
Speaker 3 (29:10):
Move, So like, what are you doing? You know, it's like,
come on, I'm taking my ball and going home.
Speaker 4 (29:16):
It's weak.
Speaker 3 (29:17):
You know who's not weak? Frank the Tank Guy's never weak.
He's Frank the Tank.
Speaker 10 (29:22):
Hello, Frank, Oh Bill Miller.
Speaker 2 (29:26):
Frank, if I was any better, I'd be a Hawkeye,
but not an Iowa Hawkeye because their offense still sucks.
Speaker 10 (29:33):
Yeah, they ought to get rid of a coach. Parents.
Speaker 3 (29:36):
He has got a life he's a tenured professor. He
can't get rid of a tenured professor.
Speaker 10 (29:42):
Well that's their problem. And the only thing good about
that that Iowa City is the hospital there. I'd be
about it.
Speaker 3 (29:52):
So save the hospital, get rid of everything else.
Speaker 10 (29:55):
Yeah, I want to know. We ain't saying they should
keep should bench ja J McCarthy and start Cartson wins
the rest of the season, Well that would be.
Speaker 3 (30:08):
That would be.
Speaker 2 (30:09):
You know, this is why people love sports talk radio.
So you're advising the Minnesota Vikings to start Carson Wentz
and bench JJ McCarthy. Of course, this after JJ McCarthy
just absolutely sliced up the Washington football team and you're
calling and oh, by the way, Carson Wentz is out
(30:29):
for the year. So this is you're oer for two
on your takes. That's oh for that's like the worst
take ever on a sports radio show. You're calling up
to say a guy who had three touchdown passes and
no interceptions and a thirty one to zero win should
be benched for a.
Speaker 3 (30:46):
Guy who's in rehab.
Speaker 2 (30:48):
Right now that no one else has this content other
than sports talk radio, we're the only ones.
Speaker 10 (30:55):

play We didn't think about them.
Speaker 11 (34:11):
We did.
Speaker 10 (34:11):
They were in our line.
Speaker 3 (34:12):

they're probably better than what they were. It's cold here.
Speaker 10 (34:33):
It's twelve degrees.
Speaker 7 (34:34):
It's sub zero.
Speaker 2 (34:36):
Okay, so this is breaking news. It's cold in Massachusetts
in December. This never happens.
Speaker 11 (34:43):
It's the coldest December we've had for years. And even
my rabbits are have quotes on outside today. I can't
believe it. I have a theory today. I didn't. That
wasn't even a joke. It's for real, not to day.
I didn't cause them to be not picked. I know why,
because they're spoiled brats. They want to go home to
(35:05):
their families. No, they're doing their fact they're doing their
finals this week anyways, and they can be home with
their families and watch football. I mean, they don't have
to go to a book.
Speaker 3 (35:15):
I'm pretty sure they're not going to watch football. I'm
pretty sure they're gonna be on like video games and
TikTok and all that stuff.
Speaker 11 (35:22):
The right phone. And I again, Ben, you're wrong about
the soccer theory.
Speaker 3 (35:26):
I'm not wrong about the soccer series. That's a bad Joe,
don't question my take.
Speaker 11 (35:31):
The take it well, the fact is Hatter had the
World Cup and it was one hundred and something degreased
and that's the first time they introduced the water breaks.
The ads on the sidelines have been running for about
fifteen years now.
Speaker 3 (35:45):
The reason they're doing this here in the state, it
doesn't get as hot here as it does in the Middle.
Speaker 10 (35:49):
East, so well probably in Mexico.
Speaker 11 (35:51):
Mexico probably will.
Speaker 3 (35:53):
Yeah, Okay, they're doing it, Mike because of advertising, because
television has been complaining they don't have enough spots. That's
why they're They're just claiming it's for player safety. It's
not for player safety. It's because they want to put
more commercials in the game. That's why they're doing it.
