Speaker 1 (00:00):
Here we go. It's our dumber four, our number four,
ready to go. And here in our number four we
start out in Dallas. How do you read George Pickens
and his future with the Cowboys. There's some new reporting
on that. We'll read and react and Troy Aikman, speaking
of the Cowboys, broadcaster Troy Aikman said he would entertain
(00:22):
opportunities to run an NFL franchise. What do you read
on that? What's you read on that? Story? Is Aikman
again flirting with the idea of leaving an underwhelming broadcasting
career and going back to an NFL front office? And
what's the takeaway from Philip Rivers return delivering the biggest
local television viewership in Indianapolis for the Colts in years?
(00:47):
In five years they've had never had rating suspic since
he last played for the team. That and more right,
now ready to go, we leave no man behind. Have
a great weekend. Fifth hour podcas cast kicks off later today.
But here's our number four. Is it by George or not? Welcome?
(01:11):
In the beginning of another hour of the Ben Malor Show.
As we Squeeze on in As We Are Together yet again,
the unstoppable object continues in the overnight here, as we
are fellow shareholders, as we bum a ride coast the coast, border,
the border, and beyond on the vast and planetarily powerful
(01:37):
microphones of FSR amminating live from the Snug As we
are as snug as a bug in the Rug from
the world famous Fox Sports Radio studios, as we come
together and tap dance on the slippery slope. Now Danny
(01:59):
and Bashville reminds us that this hour made possible by
our friends at tire Rack. It's the genuine article. For
over forty years, ti Iraq has been helping customers find
the right tires for how, what and where they drive,
ship fast and free back by free road hazard protection
with convenient installation options like mobile tire installation. Tire iraq
(02:24):
dot com is the way to go, the way tire
buying should be. And Danny DeVito, America's favorite trash man
in the Green Bay Gobbler, remind me what about DraftKings.
This show is sponsored by DraftKings sportsbook on official sports
betting partner of the NFL and NBA. Right now, use

clam your special offer at DraftKings again, that's promo code
mallor at DraftKings, the crown is yours. We had a zany,
very controversial, it smells kind of ending in the NFL
on Thursday night. The Seattle Seahawks given a two point conversion.
(03:11):
They did not score, very odd never seen anything like
this in the NFL. Just gave Seattle two points in
the fourth quarter, a two point conversion which fell incomplete.
The players stopped playing, and then the ram Seahawks. Both
teams stopped playing. Play was whistled dead, and then one
of the Seattle players casually walked over and picked up
(03:31):
the football, and the NFL determined that was worthy of
a two point conversion to tie the game. So rather
than the game ending in regulation at thirty to twenty eight,
it went to overtime and some very interesting officiating. The
officials on the field called it right. The replay guys said, no,
(03:53):
I we'll just give Seattle two points. It's a little
whacker doodle. It's not completely Oh sure it's not. And
I'm sure there'll be much more about that as the
days go forward. To Seattle, though, ended up getting a
two point conversion, that three two point conversion. The math
on that isn't said because they really only got two.
The one they didn't get was the one that the
NFL gave them the message to Puka Nakoula, you trash
(04:18):
the officials, we'll pay you back, Pale. But our lead
this hour is from Dallas. Why because we know where
the ratings are. The Cowboys wide receiver George Pickens, who
has had an up and down up and down. Currently
he's on the downside in a contract year now. He
has shown some flashes of greatness he has he's also
(04:41):
looked like he needed a nap and he wanted to
put his pajamas on and take a nap during the game.
And this has increased the speculation about where he is
going to go in twenty six. Since the Cowboys are
all but eliminated, that is much of the chatter. Now.
We're hearing that Jerry Jones, according to the streets, the
(05:01):
streets are talking, Jerry Jones is leaning one way one way.
Now which way would that be? Have you heard?
Speaker 2 (05:07):
No?
Speaker 1 (05:08):
Well, the people that are supposedly embedded boots on the
ground with the Cowboys, the insiders believe the team will
give him the franchise tag. That's right, George Pickens aboard
the Jerry train for another season. Now, Pickens is expected,
if that happens, to have an absolute conniption fit, meaning
(05:30):
he'll miss the offseason workouts and training camp because he's got,
you know, in terior motives and I want to get
out of here. I want to get paid. What's up
with that? Blah blah blah. So it's good jumping all point.
Let us discuss the question, how do you read the
latest reporting that George Pickens and his future with the
Dallas Cowboys is looking like it's going to be a
(05:52):
franchise situation. So my take on this, I've got Aspirin,
wreck It, Ralph and Monaco, three things that have never
ever been put together, and we're going to have a
feast for a tillow in Florida. We're gonna have the
Gobbagoo and then we're gonna have the Baba Gonousian. We're
(06:12):
gonna throw in some potato loccus and some jelly donuts
at the same time. It's gonna be what an amazing
meal that is going to be. So to kick off here,
to kick things off, George Pickens' future with the Cowboys
is a playground game that goes back to ancient times,
but it's run by a billionaire, meaning Jerry Jones is
(06:34):
going to show up one day. He's going to brave
the elements. He's going to have designer sneakers on. He's
going to blow the whistle and yell tag you're it,
George Pickens, tag you're it. Franchise tag will then be
slapped on Pickens like branding a cattle and or more
(06:55):
like a sticky wristband at a kid's carnival. And keep on.
This is not a marriage. It is more of a
booty call. It's a lease. It's a one year deal.
It's like a car, a high mileage lease, no warranty.
And George Pickens is He's a headache, is what he is.
But he's a talented, talented headache, the kind you pop
(07:17):
aspirin for and more than one. Because you said, well
the upside, we're gonna be the ones to unlock the
higher level. The Cowboys thought they were Pattinson on the back.
We got fireworks. He was die no mite, George Pickens
for a few games, and Mark Tommlins said, okay, sweet.
Eventually he's going to take a cat nap. Eventually it's
(07:38):
going to happen, And sure enough the disappointment was delivered
Capital D for disappointment from George Pickens the last couple
of weeks where he's looked exactly like he's back in
a Steeler uniform. The Cowboys they want stability, right, they
want stability, supposedly, they want also, uh more than stability,
they want engagement. And you know, George, George, George, George, George, George.
(08:04):
Keep him with the football. You gotta give him the ball, right,
you feed him the ball, keep him involved, and keep
him chasing. The targets are like a nice little snack,
like an appetizer. The touchdowns are the main course. The
yards are nice as well. And what is he chasing? Well,
you play with the Cowboys. You get a lot of
primetime games because the Cowboys get ratings. You get extra
(08:26):
endorsement money you don't deserve, because you know you can
photo bomb everything. They'll pay it. The illusion that if
you behave and are a good soldier, the vault might
open up, and dangling over everything is the riches not
of Solomon, the riches of Jerry's world, and Will Pickens
throw a hissy fit. One thousand percent, right, one thousand percent.
(08:50):
He's not gonna write out the storm. No, no, no, no,
He's going to be the storm. He's going to be.
This is a known quantity, not an unknown quantity. It's
a known quantity. Thousand percent on that. All right, that's it,
and it's baked into the cake. It is a smart,
smart movie. And actually we have a lot of time,
and we're still in the NFL season and all that stuff,
(09:10):
and Jerry's got money to burn, and so it makes
sense to go on this player year to year. And
you don't promise anything. You don't hug them, you know,
don't hug it out. Just produce. And it's not cruel.
It's just how the Cowboys should operate. Now. Furthermore, speaking
of the Cowboys, to TV Lane we go and former
(09:31):
Dallas Cowboy longtime television broadcaster at Fox and ab See,
Troy Aikman is again, yet again daydreaming of running an
NFL front office. Aikman was years ago supposed to gonna
leave television and become a broadcaster. He has wavered on
and off interest in becoming an executive running the football
(09:53):
ops department of an NFL team. So in twenty nineteen,
I remember we did monologues about this for the Pandemic
and Aikman was like, hey, I'd like to be a
general manager. Toss it out and the fish were not biting.
Kind of reminds me of Kenny Smith. What happened, by
the way, to that show? Is that on anymore? Did
(10:14):
they cancel inside the NBA and not tell anybody like
Charles Barkley and Kenny Smith? I feel like that show's
not on anymore. Did they cancel it and they didn't
tell anybody anyway? Kenny Smith wanted to be an executive.
He interviewed with the Knicks and some other teams and
nobody hired. So now Aikman is he did an interview
and he's like, hey, recent interview. Aikman said he would
(10:34):
not totally close the door to running a front office
in the NFL. He said, will it come along at
some point? Maybe I doubt it, but maybe so. Maybe
he's a weasel word. Doubt it's a weasel phrase. So
that's what he used. Okay, it's not a quiz question.
(10:55):
Troy Aikman says he would entertain the opportunity to run
an NFL franchise. What is your read on this one?
So it's he said this in the past as we
put it out. But let me decode this Jive Turkey,
which is a restaurant in Vegas from corporate speak to English.
(11:17):
So this is not about Aikman trying to speak this
into existence. This is not that he's not looking at
thirty two NFL job saying I want one of those
thirty two. No, no, no, this is about one job.
It's about number one job, one star, one helmet, one
(11:39):
oil painting hanging in the back of Jerry's clown mansion,
the funhouse of Jerry Joe's. Aikman doesn't think he's going
to go to Jacksonville or Cleveland or somewhere like that.
He's not thinking about going to Arizona. He's fantasizing about
writing in like a Knight in shining armor, galloping down
(11:59):
I thirty five to save an owner in distress, to
rescue Jerry Jones from himself. And this is the cowboy
only delusion. Lifetime member of the Star Club, Troy Aikman
never wore another NFL uniform in a game. Lives in
(12:19):
the Dallas area and in Santa Barbara, but he spends
a lot of time in the Dallas area. Breeze. The
air of Dallas, eats Dallas like it's barbecue, brisket at
a booster event for the Cowboys, some kind of picnic.
But ultimately, the goal is to be the wrecked Ralph sidekick,
not to be wrecked Ralph because Jerry Jones's wrecked Ralph.
(12:40):
The goal is to be the sidekick fix at Felix.
Get that kind of energy, Let me grab my little
hammer and my little hammer and I'm gonna go in
there and I'm gonna fix the broken window at Jerry's world.
I'm gonna do it. I'm gonna do it. He's fifty
seven now, aikman. He's never been a scout, he's never
negotiated the salary cap. He's not a big analytics guy.
(13:02):
He's never run the draft. Blah blah blah blah blah
blah blah blah blah blah blah. The funny thing about this,
I know it's not moneyball. It's a nostalgia thing. If
Jim Ursay hadn't dropped dead, this is the kind of
guy that Ersay would bring in. But he didn't play
for the Colts. That's the problem, and Apman wants the
cowboy job. If Jerry ever did step aside, and there's
(13:23):
one way he ultimately will step aside, we will all
step aside the same way. Troy would love though, to
come in there and be waiting in the tunnel, star polished.
I got the cape ready to go because all superheroes
need capes and thinking, no, it's my turn, and that
tells him he's there. He's thinking he's got his head
in the game. Now, last thing to Indianapolis we go.
(13:47):
More details on Grandpa Grandpa Rivers. Philip Rivers returned and
his team lost to the Seattle football team, but Rivers
delivered the big bigest local television audience for the Colts
in five years since he last played for the team. Wow. Question,
(14:12):
what is the takeaway? What is your takeaway from Philip
Rivers returning delivering the biggest local television viewership for the
Colts in many, many years. So my take on this,
it's obvious curiosity killed the cat. It also juiced the
Nielsen ratings. And absolutely this was not about fruit ball.
(14:32):
This was a county fair side show. It was the
sword Swallower. It's the lay on a bed of nails.
It's the woman with a mustache. It's that. And you
tuned in, and I watched more of this game than
I was expecting. You tune in, You don't expect to
see excellence. You tune in to see the edge of disaster. Hey,
(14:55):
what's what's on the other side? You had a middle
aged daddy with what nine kids, jogging out of the
Alabama backwoods like he missed a PTA meeting.
Speaker 3 (15:10):
And it's a.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
Tight rope walk. Watching this guy play a lot of
why you want to watch this guy plays. He's forty
four years old. He was just in Alabama coaching high
school football. That is a tight rope walk without the net.
And it's windy, it's downhill skiing on ice. It's Monaco
hairpin turns at one hundred and ninety miles an hour.
(15:32):
You're watching because something might go horribly wrong. Something might
go horribly wrong. Rivers is the human check engine light
is what he is. And the thing's it's kind of blinking,
the dew hickeys blinking. It's beeping the what you McCall it?
And you still drive to work? Right? So I got
to go to work. I don't have time to go
(15:53):
get the car. Looked at it, so wow, okay, but
the car might might not work. Well okay, that's fine,
but I need to get to work, so I'll do
that later. And that's what this is. Indianapolis fans were transfixed, clearly,
not because of hope fascination fascination. Can rivers still spin
the ball? Will the arm fall off midplay? Is this
(16:14):
the snap where it all collapses? It all ends, the
storybook story goes away. Totally relatable. It's relatable to the
rank and file. Every forty something dude watching. It's like,
well listen, he's out there. Maybe I still got some game.
I got game stealed, midlife crisis with a hellet. And again,
(16:38):
it wasn't about winning. It was not about winning. It
was about watching the slow motion wreck and nearly not
being able to look away, not being able to look away.
That's what this was about. It is the Ben Mahlor Show.

(19:57):
at FSR Tech Queen and Cooper Loop Bronco fan. Your
comments can and will be used against you in the
court of sports radio. Will please act according back to
it we go And the the big story Ram Seahawk game,
the two point conversion that didn't count, but then the
(20:20):
NFL gave it to Seattle. The Rams had five hundred
and eighty one yards of offense, the most in a
loss in almost a decade. Twenty sixteen. Christmas Eve twenty sixteen,
Buffalo had five hundred and eighty nine yards of total
offense and lost to Miami. And now the Rams five
hundred and eighty one yards of offense and they lose. Well,
(20:42):
referees kind of helped. Now. Then Pooka went on social
media after the game and said, can you say I
was wrong? Appreciate you Stripes for the contribution, he said, lol,
and then he deleted the comment, which of course has
been saved for posterity sake. And then Sean mcvah after
the game. I saw some of his news conference. He
(21:02):
played dumb dumb, du dumb, dumb dumb. And there are
some reports here overnight, by the way, outside of that
game that later today the Kansas City Chiefs are going
to announce they are leaving the state of Missouri and
going a few miles away into Kansas. A couple of
reports out that that is going to happen, and we'll
(21:23):
see if that. I think the announcement would happened today
because why would you announce it next week. Everyone's kind
of away from work and all that stuff, so we'll
see if that happens. Which, if you're not from that area,
sounds like a big deal, and if you're from that area,
it's like, well, it's just a few miles away, so
it's a big deal. Who cares whether they play here
or not. It's like the Jets and the Giants playing
technically in New Jersey, but it's like right across the
(21:46):
way there from from New York. It's called geography. It's
an amazing thing. Let's say hello to Dorko the comedian.

Speaker 7 (29:49):
I got a good joke for you.
Speaker 1 (29:50):
I want to know if I told you I need
I don't have time. I need you to toss the coop.
I'm up against the clock here. I need you to say.

York and for all your entertainment, here's Coople.
Speaker 4 (30:02):
Loop yep, And I got a joke with She's just.
Speaker 1 (30:11):
His brain doesn't work. Who would win him? If we
did a battle of I don't know what we call it,
Dorco and E Dog. Who would win that matchup? And Marcel?
Would Marcell be the third man in?
Speaker 3 (30:23):
We would all lose brain suck. Well, Dorco is putting
on an act, so I mean.
Speaker 1 (30:28):
Dorko's a smart guy, but he's doing a character.
Speaker 3 (30:31):
I guess.
Speaker 1 (30:31):
All right, Well, very good, let's go coop a loop. Hollywood,
Big weekend ahead? Are the Christmas blockbusters out?
Speaker 6 (30:38):
Yet?
Speaker 3 (30:39):
Well, we do have a number of big time movies
releasing this weekend that some of them you might get
excited about. The first one, Uh, it's a big movie.
It's Avatar, Fire and Ash. This is the third installment
of the Avatar series. At this point, I I don't
(30:59):
really care, but I say that, and yet I'm probably
gonna go see it in theaters.
Speaker 1 (31:05):
Well, you have a movie pass, don't you.
Speaker 3 (31:07):
That's true, that's true, but you have to pay a
little you have to pay a little upgrade fee if
you want to see things in imax, which I mean,
if you're not seeing this in imax, what's the point.
That's that's it's all about the visuals to me at
this point, because.
Speaker 1 (31:20):
The point is to avoid the up charge, that's the point.
Speaker 3 (31:23):
Yeah, yeah, but the story is like, there's only so
many times you can see you know, animated three D
fer and Gully. But moving on. Also out this weekend
is the SpongeBob movie.
Speaker 1 (31:36):
Oh, this is big Ferg Dog. Keep your pants on,
Ferg Dog.
Speaker 3 (31:39):
Come on, well, this is the SpongeBob movie. Search for
square pants.
Speaker 1 (31:43):
Oh my god, that's right. MG, Holy crap.
Speaker 3 (31:47):
It's gotten eighty five percent from Metacritic, right so far,
So you.
Speaker 1 (31:52):
Know that's just Ferg Dog and his bots. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (31:55):
Probably. And last, but certainly not least, this week weekend
is the release of the movie The Housemaid, and this
movie stars none other than Sidney Sweeney. Oh and Amanda sef.
Speaker 1 (32:10):
You're a fan of her work, you appreciate her skills? Yes,
very top tell she's a lovely lady and my apologies
to her.
Speaker 3 (32:16):
Yes, but Amanda Seafried also pretty pretty great actress herself.
And this is a wildly entertaining thriller starring Sidney Sweeney
and Amanda Sefreed, based on the best selling book. And
Sidney Sweeney accepts a job as a living housemaid for
the wealthy Nina, who is played by Seafreed, and what
begins as a dream job quickly unravels into something more dangerous,
(32:40):
a sexy, seductive game of secrets, scandal, and power. Oh yes, intriguing.
We'll see if this one flops like her last movie.
I don't think it will. The last movie was about
a female boxer.
Speaker 1 (32:55):
Now, Lorain is actually gonna see this movie right when
the Cowboy Game kicks off.
Speaker 3 (32:58):
He's gonna go, Yes, probably if she's not at Disneyland.
But I'll be wearing my jersey with the upside down
Cowboys symbol.
Speaker 1 (33:10):
Because you're cool. You're a cool person, all right, So
I want to cool people.
Speaker 3 (33:13):
Do hit A couple of things on the TV side
here real quick. First, is this kind of new experimental
cartoon that they're doing it. It's called Adult Swims. The
Elephant and it premiered on adults well, it will premiere
on Adult Swim at eleven pm tonight. It's also available
on HBO Max for streaming. And so it's a one
(33:35):
off experiment where they have four different animators, the guy
from Adventure Time, a couple other famous animators, and they
don't know what it is they're working on. And each
animator is responsible for one of the show's three acts,
but they were given virtually no information about the other
two parts, and so they kind of are working together
(33:57):
to create a cohesive story for different and animation styles.
Should be should be interesting. That's available on HBO Max.
And then last, but certainly not least, Here we Go,
Here we Go on Wednesday, December twenty o No, no, no,
I'm sorry, I'm wrong. It is Monday. It's on Monday money.
Speaker 1 (34:16):
I was gonna say, no, really, they don't release stuff
on Christmas Eve.
Speaker 3 (34:19):
Cool Pit on Monday, December twenty second, a new Netflix documentary.
Uh huh, l Way, that's right.
Speaker 1 (34:30):
Oh boy, now, Coop, are you gonna buy your next
car from the Lway dealership? Because he's got doesn't he
still have those car dealerships?
Speaker 3 (34:37):
I didn't don't. Does he still have them. I don't
know if he does anymore.
Speaker 1 (34:40):
No, he got rude.
Speaker 3 (34:41):
I know he still has the uh the steakhouse.
Speaker 7 (34:45):
No he does.
Speaker 3 (34:46):
He does still have the dealerships.
Speaker 1 (34:48):
There's a lot of money, and if you own a
car dealership, there is a lot. I don't know how
they make so much money, but there's a ton of
money in that. I had a buddy of mine used
to work in the car business and said, dude, that
they're loaded. You can get in even if you own
a part of a car.
Speaker 3 (35:00):
Do they used car dealerships where it's at right, that's
where that's where all the money is.
Speaker 1 (35:04):
I was told they make most of their money on
the service. That's where they really that's where they really
stick it to. That's really It's kind of like when
you remember the old thing with printer's coop, where you
buy the printer, they give you the printer because the
ink would cost a fortune. Oh, I know it. I
used to Yes, that was your game. That's right, that
was your game. You were in that racket. Yeah, yeah,
that's right.
Speaker 3 (35:23):
Anyway, get your popcorn ready for that lwait documentary. I'm

welcome you to our contestants.
Speaker 4 (38:19):
We have.
Speaker 1 (38:20):
One of our contestants is for Gayzy. Hello for Gayzy,
Welcome Merry Christmas.
Speaker 2 (38:26):
Guy.
Speaker 1 (38:27):
What's going on? You're up early? What are you up
to this morning? For Gayzy?
Speaker 6 (38:31):
Ah just dropped somebody off at the airport on my
way to work.
Speaker 1 (38:36):
There you go, all right, very nice. Well you're gonna
be one of our contestants and you will be going
against Lorena picked one or two, Lorena one or two
number two. Okay, you have picked Chris in Boston. Good morning, Chris,
Welcome Americ Christmas, you too, Mary Christmas. Happy Holliays, the
whole thing, a wonderful, happy New Year, the whole, the
(38:57):
whole deal. You are going against for game. The categories
are gentlemen. We have not like that and I think
that's the only category. So let's just play that category
here we go. Not like that. These athletes were all
on the wrong side of a controversial call. Your name
is your Buzzer, Good luck, gentlemen, for two hundred dollars.
(39:18):
Nearly eleven years after this NFC Divisional playoff game between
the Cowboys and Packers, people still debate whether or not
this wide receiver's overturned catch was actually a game winning
touchdown or not. Whose who Gayzy does? Brian? That is correct,
as Bryant, it was a catch, but they didn't call
(39:41):
it like that. My friend says. The NFL does what
they want, when they want, how they want, and that's it.
Four hundred dollars the Raiders. This Raiders defensive back forced
off fumble in the AFC Divisional playoffs, but the play
was overturned and ruled an incomplete path and what would
become part of NFL lore known as the tuk rule.
(40:04):
Game for Geisey for Gezy, Charles woods look at you
for Gayzy? Two for two? That is correct. Charles Woodson
was the Raider defensive back who made the play. You're
listening to Sports Jeopardy on the Bed Mather Show. Six
hundred dollars. This legendary power forward was on the wrong
side of what many believed to be a disportionate. It's
(40:28):
just on a bogus foul call in favor of the
Lakers in Game six of the two Western Conference Finals
in what became known as the Tim Donahey Game. Now,
he is probably more famous for calling a time out
his college team did not have.
Speaker 6 (40:50):
Weber.
Speaker 1 (40:51):
There you go, all right? Eight hundred dollars. Chris, is
your buzzer working.
Speaker 7 (40:55):
Chris, My buzz is working.
Speaker 6 (40:57):
I'm just out of way.
Speaker 1 (40:58):
How's the show sound? Does it sound all right? Yeah?
Speaker 6 (41:01):
Great?
Speaker 1 (41:01):
Great? Thank you good? All right? Eight hundred dollars. This
former small forward and millions of broken hearted Utah Jazz
fans believe Michael Jordan fouled him by pushing off in
his famous NBA clinching shot NBA Finals clinching shot. I
know his first name, you don't know his last name. Yeah,
(41:25):
it's been twenty has been thirty years since this something
like that? Almost thirty years. Yeah, I can't believe it's
been almost thirty years. Uh, nobody, nobody, nobody, Chris, Chris.
That's all I got nothing. Brian Russell, Brian Russell, all right, well,
last one thousand dollars, umpire. Jim Joyce actually cried. He
(41:45):
apologized to this picture for incorrectly calling a runner safe
that would have been the final out of a perfect
game for the Detroit Canner.
Speaker 7 (41:52):
Picture for crazy Armando Galraga.
Speaker 1 (41:56):
There you go for gayzy domination situation. Have a great
way a get everybody unbelievable. Look at you for Daisy
Here we go. It's our dumber four, our number four,
ready to go. And here in our number four we
start out in Dallas. How do you read George Pickens
and his future with the Cowboys. There's some new reporting
on that. We'll read and react and Troy Aikman, speaking
of the Cowboys, broadcaster Troy Aikman said he would entertain
(00:22):
opportunities to run an NFL franchise. What do you read
on that? What's you read on that? Story? Is Aikman
again flirting with the idea of leaving an underwhelming broadcasting
career and going back to an NFL front office? And
what's the takeaway from Philip Rivers return delivering the biggest
local television viewership in Indianapolis for the Colts in years?
(00:47):
In five years they've had never had rating suspic since
he last played for the team. That and more right,
now ready to go, we leave no man behind. Have
a great weekend. Fifth hour podcas cast kicks off later today.
But here's our number four. Is it by George or not? Welcome?
(01:11):
In the beginning of another hour of the Ben Malor Show.
As we Squeeze on in As We Are Together yet again,
the unstoppable object continues in the overnight here, as we
are fellow shareholders, as we bum a ride coast the coast, border,
the border, and beyond on the vast and planetarily powerful
(01:37):
microphones of FSR amminating live from the Snug As we
are as snug as a bug in the Rug from
the world famous Fox Sports Radio studios, as we come
together and tap dance on the slippery slope. Now Danny
(01:59):
and Bashville reminds us that this hour made possible by
our friends at tire Rack. It's the genuine article. For
over forty years, ti Iraq has been helping customers find
the right tires for how, what and where they drive,
ship fast and free back by free road hazard protection
with convenient installation options like mobile tire installation. Tire iraq
(02:24):
dot com is the way to go, the way tire
buying should be. And Danny DeVito, America's favorite trash man
in the Green Bay Gobbler, remind me what about DraftKings.
This show is sponsored by DraftKings sportsbook on official sports
betting partner of the NFL and NBA. Right now, use

clam your special offer at DraftKings again, that's promo code
mallor at DraftKings, the crown is yours. We had a zany,
very controversial, it smells kind of ending in the NFL
on Thursday night. The Seattle Seahawks given a two point conversion.
(03:11):
They did not score, very odd never seen anything like
this in the NFL. Just gave Seattle two points in
the fourth quarter, a two point conversion which fell incomplete.
The players stopped playing, and then the ram Seahawks. Both
teams stopped playing. Play was whistled dead, and then one
of the Seattle players casually walked over and picked up
(03:31):
the football, and the NFL determined that was worthy of
a two point conversion to tie the game. So rather
than the game ending in regulation at thirty to twenty eight,
it went to overtime and some very interesting officiating. The
officials on the field called it right. The replay guys said, no,
(03:53):
I we'll just give Seattle two points. It's a little
whacker doodle. It's not completely Oh sure it's not. And
I'm sure there'll be much more about that as the
days go forward. To Seattle, though, ended up getting a
two point conversion, that three two point conversion. The math
on that isn't said because they really only got two.
The one they didn't get was the one that the
NFL gave them the message to Puka Nakoula, you trash
(04:18):
the officials, we'll pay you back, Pale. But our lead
this hour is from Dallas. Why because we know where
the ratings are. The Cowboys wide receiver George Pickens, who
has had an up and down up and down. Currently
he's on the downside in a contract year now. He
has shown some flashes of greatness he has he's also
(04:41):
looked like he needed a nap and he wanted to
put his pajamas on and take a nap during the game.
And this has increased the speculation about where he is
going to go in twenty six. Since the Cowboys are
all but eliminated, that is much of the chatter. Now.
We're hearing that Jerry Jones, according to the streets, the
(05:01):
streets are talking, Jerry Jones is leaning one way one way.
Now which way would that be? Have you heard?
Speaker 2 (05:07):
No?
Speaker 1 (05:08):
Well, the people that are supposedly embedded boots on the
ground with the Cowboys, the insiders believe the team will
give him the franchise tag. That's right, George Pickens aboard
the Jerry train for another season. Now, Pickens is expected,
if that happens, to have an absolute conniption fit, meaning
(05:30):
he'll miss the offseason workouts and training camp because he's got,
you know, in terior motives and I want to get
out of here. I want to get paid. What's up
with that? Blah blah blah. So it's good jumping all point.
Let us discuss the question, how do you read the
latest reporting that George Pickens and his future with the
Dallas Cowboys is looking like it's going to be a
(05:52):
franchise situation. So my take on this, I've got Aspirin,
wreck It, Ralph and Monaco, three things that have never
ever been put together, and we're going to have a
feast for a tillow in Florida. We're gonna have the
Gobbagoo and then we're gonna have the Baba Gonousian. We're
(06:12):
gonna throw in some potato loccus and some jelly donuts
at the same time. It's gonna be what an amazing
meal that is going to be. So to kick off here,
to kick things off, George Pickens' future with the Cowboys
is a playground game that goes back to ancient times,
but it's run by a billionaire, meaning Jerry Jones is
(06:34):
going to show up one day. He's going to brave
the elements. He's going to have designer sneakers on. He's
going to blow the whistle and yell tag you're it,
George Pickens, tag you're it. Franchise tag will then be
slapped on Pickens like branding a cattle and or more
(06:55):
like a sticky wristband at a kid's carnival. And keep on.
This is not a marriage. It is more of a
booty call. It's a lease. It's a one year deal.
It's like a car, a high mileage lease, no warranty.
And George Pickens is He's a headache, is what he is.
But he's a talented, talented headache, the kind you pop
(07:17):
aspirin for and more than one. Because you said, well
the upside, we're gonna be the ones to unlock the
higher level. The Cowboys thought they were Pattinson on the back.
We got fireworks. He was die no mite, George Pickens
for a few games, and Mark Tommlins said, okay, sweet.
Eventually he's going to take a cat nap. Eventually it's
(07:38):
going to happen, And sure enough the disappointment was delivered
Capital D for disappointment from George Pickens the last couple
of weeks where he's looked exactly like he's back in
a Steeler uniform. The Cowboys they want stability, right, they
want stability, supposedly, they want also, uh more than stability,
they want engagement. And you know, George, George, George, George, George, George.
(08:04):
Keep him with the football. You gotta give him the ball, right,
you feed him the ball, keep him involved, and keep
him chasing. The targets are like a nice little snack,
like an appetizer. The touchdowns are the main course. The
yards are nice as well. And what is he chasing? Well,
you play with the Cowboys. You get a lot of
primetime games because the Cowboys get ratings. You get extra
(08:26):
endorsement money you don't deserve, because you know you can
photo bomb everything. They'll pay it. The illusion that if
you behave and are a good soldier, the vault might
open up, and dangling over everything is the riches not
of Solomon, the riches of Jerry's world, and Will Pickens
throw a hissy fit. One thousand percent, right, one thousand percent.
(08:50):
He's not gonna write out the storm. No, no, no, no,
He's going to be the storm. He's going to be.
This is a known quantity, not an unknown quantity. It's
a known quantity. Thousand percent on that. All right, that's it,
and it's baked into the cake. It is a smart,
smart movie. And actually we have a lot of time,
and we're still in the NFL season and all that stuff,
(09:10):
and Jerry's got money to burn, and so it makes
sense to go on this player year to year. And
you don't promise anything. You don't hug them, you know,
don't hug it out. Just produce. And it's not cruel.
It's just how the Cowboys should operate. Now. Furthermore, speaking
of the Cowboys, to TV Lane we go and former
(09:31):
Dallas Cowboy longtime television broadcaster at Fox and ab See,
Troy Aikman is again, yet again daydreaming of running an
NFL front office. Aikman was years ago supposed to gonna
leave television and become a broadcaster. He has wavered on
and off interest in becoming an executive running the football
(09:53):
ops department of an NFL team. So in twenty nineteen,
I remember we did monologues about this for the Pandemic
and Aikman was like, hey, I'd like to be a
general manager. Toss it out and the fish were not biting.
Kind of reminds me of Kenny Smith. What happened, by
the way, to that show? Is that on anymore? Did
(10:14):
they cancel inside the NBA and not tell anybody like
Charles Barkley and Kenny Smith? I feel like that show's
not on anymore. Did they cancel it and they didn't
tell anybody anyway? Kenny Smith wanted to be an executive.
He interviewed with the Knicks and some other teams and
nobody hired. So now Aikman is he did an interview
and he's like, hey, recent interview. Aikman said he would
(10:34):
not totally close the door to running a front office
in the NFL. He said, will it come along at
some point? Maybe I doubt it, but maybe so. Maybe
he's a weasel word. Doubt it's a weasel phrase. So
that's what he used. Okay, it's not a quiz question.
(10:55):
Troy Aikman says he would entertain the opportunity to run
an NFL franchise. What is your read on this one?
So it's he said this in the past as we
put it out. But let me decode this Jive Turkey,
which is a restaurant in Vegas from corporate speak to English.
(11:17):
So this is not about Aikman trying to speak this
into existence. This is not that he's not looking at
thirty two NFL job saying I want one of those
thirty two. No, no, no, this is about one job.
It's about number one job, one star, one helmet, one
(11:39):
oil painting hanging in the back of Jerry's clown mansion,
the funhouse of Jerry Joe's. Aikman doesn't think he's going
to go to Jacksonville or Cleveland or somewhere like that.
He's not thinking about going to Arizona. He's fantasizing about
writing in like a Knight in shining armor, galloping down
(11:59):
I thirty five to save an owner in distress, to
rescue Jerry Jones from himself. And this is the cowboy
only delusion. Lifetime member of the Star Club, Troy Aikman
never wore another NFL uniform in a game. Lives in
(12:19):
the Dallas area and in Santa Barbara, but he spends
a lot of time in the Dallas area. Breeze. The
air of Dallas, eats Dallas like it's barbecue, brisket at
a booster event for the Cowboys, some kind of picnic.
But ultimately, the goal is to be the wrecked Ralph sidekick,
not to be wrecked Ralph because Jerry Jones's wrecked Ralph.
(12:40):
The goal is to be the sidekick fix at Felix.
Get that kind of energy, Let me grab my little
hammer and my little hammer and I'm gonna go in
there and I'm gonna fix the broken window at Jerry's world.
I'm gonna do it. I'm gonna do it. He's fifty
seven now, aikman. He's never been a scout, he's never
negotiated the salary cap. He's not a big analytics guy.
(13:02):
He's never run the draft. Blah blah blah blah blah
blah blah blah blah blah blah. The funny thing about this,
I know it's not moneyball. It's a nostalgia thing. If
Jim Ursay hadn't dropped dead, this is the kind of
guy that Ersay would bring in. But he didn't play
for the Colts. That's the problem, and Apman wants the
cowboy job. If Jerry ever did step aside, and there's
(13:23):
one way he ultimately will step aside, we will all
step aside the same way. Troy would love though, to
come in there and be waiting in the tunnel, star polished.
I got the cape ready to go because all superheroes
need capes and thinking, no, it's my turn, and that
tells him he's there. He's thinking he's got his head
in the game. Now, last thing to Indianapolis we go.
(13:47):
More details on Grandpa Grandpa Rivers. Philip Rivers returned and
his team lost to the Seattle football team, but Rivers
delivered the big bigest local television audience for the Colts
in five years since he last played for the team. Wow. Question,
(14:12):
what is the takeaway? What is your takeaway from Philip
Rivers returning delivering the biggest local television viewership for the
Colts in many, many years. So my take on this,
it's obvious curiosity killed the cat. It also juiced the
Nielsen ratings. And absolutely this was not about fruit ball.
(14:32):
This was a county fair side show. It was the
sword Swallower. It's the lay on a bed of nails.
It's the woman with a mustache. It's that. And you
tuned in, and I watched more of this game than
I was expecting. You tune in, You don't expect to
see excellence. You tune in to see the edge of disaster. Hey,
(14:55):
what's what's on the other side? You had a middle
aged daddy with what nine kids, jogging out of the
Alabama backwoods like he missed a PTA meeting.
Speaker 3 (15:10):
And it's a.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
Tight rope walk. Watching this guy play a lot of
why you want to watch this guy plays. He's forty
four years old. He was just in Alabama coaching high
school football. That is a tight rope walk without the net.
And it's windy, it's downhill skiing on ice. It's Monaco
hairpin turns at one hundred and ninety miles an hour.
(15:32):
You're watching because something might go horribly wrong. Something might
go horribly wrong. Rivers is the human check engine light
is what he is. And the thing's it's kind of blinking,
the dew hickeys blinking. It's beeping the what you McCall it?
And you still drive to work? Right? So I got
to go to work. I don't have time to go
(15:53):
get the car. Looked at it, so wow, okay, but
the car might might not work. Well okay, that's fine,
but I need to get to work, so I'll do
that later. And that's what this is. Indianapolis fans were transfixed, clearly,
not because of hope fascination fascination. Can rivers still spin
the ball? Will the arm fall off midplay? Is this
(16:14):
the snap where it all collapses? It all ends, the
storybook story goes away. Totally relatable. It's relatable to the
rank and file. Every forty something dude watching. It's like,
well listen, he's out there. Maybe I still got some game.
I got game stealed, midlife crisis with a hellet. And again,
(16:38):
it wasn't about winning. It was not about winning. It
was about watching the slow motion wreck and nearly not
being able to look away, not being able to look away.
That's what this was about. It is the Ben Mahlor Show.

(19:57):
at FSR Tech Queen and Cooper Loop Bronco fan. Your
comments can and will be used against you in the
court of sports radio. Will please act according back to
it we go And the the big story Ram Seahawk game,
the two point conversion that didn't count, but then the
(20:20):
NFL gave it to Seattle. The Rams had five hundred
and eighty one yards of offense, the most in a
loss in almost a decade. Twenty sixteen. Christmas Eve twenty sixteen,
Buffalo had five hundred and eighty nine yards of total
offense and lost to Miami. And now the Rams five
hundred and eighty one yards of offense and they lose. Well,
(20:42):
referees kind of helped. Now. Then Pooka went on social
media after the game and said, can you say I
was wrong? Appreciate you Stripes for the contribution, he said, lol,
and then he deleted the comment, which of course has
been saved for posterity sake. And then Sean mcvah after
the game. I saw some of his news conference. He
(21:02):
played dumb dumb, du dumb, dumb dumb. And there are
some reports here overnight, by the way, outside of that
game that later today the Kansas City Chiefs are going
to announce they are leaving the state of Missouri and
going a few miles away into Kansas. A couple of
reports out that that is going to happen, and we'll
(21:23):
see if that. I think the announcement would happened today
because why would you announce it next week. Everyone's kind
of away from work and all that stuff, so we'll
see if that happens. Which, if you're not from that area,
sounds like a big deal, and if you're from that area,
it's like, well, it's just a few miles away, so
it's a big deal. Who cares whether they play here
or not. It's like the Jets and the Giants playing
technically in New Jersey, but it's like right across the
(21:46):
way there from from New York. It's called geography. It's
an amazing thing. Let's say hello to Dorko the comedian.

Speaker 7 (29:49):
I got a good joke for you.
Speaker 1 (29:50):
I want to know if I told you I need
I don't have time. I need you to toss the coop.
I'm up against the clock here. I need you to say.

York and for all your entertainment, here's Coople.
Speaker 4 (30:02):

His brain doesn't work. Who would win him? If we
did a battle of I don't know what we call it,
Dorco and E Dog. Who would win that matchup? And Marcel?
Would Marcell be the third man in?
Speaker 3 (30:23):
We would all lose brain suck. Well, Dorco is putting
on an act, so I mean.
Speaker 1 (30:28):
Dorko's a smart guy, but he's doing a character.
Speaker 3 (30:31):
I guess.
Speaker 1 (30:31):
All right, Well, very good, let's go coop a loop. Hollywood,
Big weekend ahead? Are the Christmas blockbusters out?
Speaker 6 (30:38):
Yet?
Speaker 3 (30:39):
Well, we do have a number of big time movies
releasing this weekend that some of them you might get
excited about. The first one, Uh, it's a big movie.
It's Avatar, Fire and Ash. This is the third installment
of the Avatar series. At this point, I I don't
(30:59):
really care, but I say that, and yet I'm probably
gonna go see it in theaters.
Speaker 1 (31:05):
Well, you have a movie pass, don't you.
Speaker 3 (31:07):
That's true, that's true, but you have to pay a
little you have to pay a little upgrade fee if
you want to see things in imax, which I mean,
if you're not seeing this in imax, what's the point.
That's that's it's all about the visuals to me at
this point, because.
Speaker 1 (31:20):
The point is to avoid the up charge, that's the point.
Speaker 3 (31:23):
Yeah, yeah, but the story is like, there's only so
many times you can see you know, animated three D
fer and Gully. But moving on. Also out this weekend
is the SpongeBob movie.
Speaker 1 (31:36):
Oh, this is big Ferg Dog. Keep your pants on,
Ferg Dog.
Speaker 3 (31:39):
Come on, well, this is the SpongeBob movie. Search for
square pants.
Speaker 1 (31:43):
Oh my god, that's right. MG, Holy crap.
Speaker 3 (31:47):
It's gotten eighty five percent from Metacritic, right so far,
So you.
Speaker 1 (31:52):
Know that's just Ferg Dog and his bots. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (31:55):
Probably. And last, but certainly not least, this week weekend
is the release of the movie The Housemaid, and this
movie stars none other than Sidney Sweeney. Oh and Amanda sef.
Speaker 1 (32:10):
You're a fan of her work, you appreciate her skills? Yes,
very top tell she's a lovely lady and my apologies
to her.
Speaker 3 (32:16):
Yes, but Amanda Seafried also pretty pretty great actress herself.
And this is a wildly entertaining thriller starring Sidney Sweeney
and Amanda Sefreed, based on the best selling book. And
Sidney Sweeney accepts a job as a living housemaid for
the wealthy Nina, who is played by Seafreed, and what
begins as a dream job quickly unravels into something more dangerous,
(32:40):
a sexy, seductive game of secrets, scandal, and power. Oh yes, intriguing.
We'll see if this one flops like her last movie.
I don't think it will. The last movie was about
a female boxer.
Speaker 1 (32:55):
Now, Lorain is actually gonna see this movie right when
the Cowboy Game kicks off.
Speaker 3 (32:58):
He's gonna go, Yes, probably if she's not at Disneyland.
But I'll be wearing my jersey with the upside down
Cowboys symbol.
Speaker 1 (33:10):
Because you're cool. You're a cool person, all right, So
I want to cool people.
Speaker 3 (33:13):
Do hit A couple of things on the TV side
here real quick. First, is this kind of new experimental
cartoon that they're doing it. It's called Adult Swims. The
Elephant and it premiered on adults well, it will premiere
on Adult Swim at eleven pm tonight. It's also available
on HBO Max for streaming. And so it's a one
(33:35):
off experiment where they have four different animators, the guy
from Adventure Time, a couple other famous animators, and they
don't know what it is they're working on. And each
animator is responsible for one of the show's three acts,
but they were given virtually no information about the other
two parts, and so they kind of are working together
(33:57):
to create a cohesive story for different and animation styles.
Should be should be interesting. That's available on HBO Max.
And then last, but certainly not least, Here we Go,
Here we Go on Wednesday, December twenty o No, no, no,
I'm sorry, I'm wrong. It is Monday. It's on Monday money.
Speaker 1 (34:16):
I was gonna say, no, really, they don't release stuff
on Christmas Eve.
Speaker 3 (34:19):
Cool Pit on Monday, December twenty second, a new Netflix documentary.
Uh huh, l Way, that's right.
Speaker 1 (34:30):
Oh boy, now, Coop, are you gonna buy your next
car from the Lway dealership? Because he's got doesn't he
still have those car dealerships?
Speaker 3 (34:37):
I didn't don't. Does he still have them. I don't
know if he does anymore.
Speaker 1 (34:40):
No, he got rude.
Speaker 3 (34:41):
I know he still has the uh the steakhouse.
Speaker 7 (34:45):
No he does.
Speaker 3 (34:46):
He does still have the dealerships.
Speaker 1 (34:48):
There's a lot of money, and if you own a
car dealership, there is a lot. I don't know how
they make so much money, but there's a ton of
money in that. I had a buddy of mine used
to work in the car business and said, dude, that
they're loaded. You can get in even if you own
a part of a car.
Speaker 3 (35:00):
Do they used car dealerships where it's at right, that's
where that's where all the money is.
Speaker 1 (35:04):
I was told they make most of their money on
the service. That's where they really that's where they really
stick it to. That's really It's kind of like when
you remember the old thing with printer's coop, where you
buy the printer, they give you the printer because the
ink would cost a fortune. Oh, I know it. I
used to Yes, that was your game. That's right, that
was your game. You were in that racket. Yeah, yeah,
that's right.
Speaker 3 (35:23):

(39:18):
Nearly eleven years after this NFC Divisional playoff game between
the Cowboys and Packers, people still debate whether or not
this wide receiver's overturned catch was actually a game winning
touchdown or not. Whose who Gayzy does? Brian? That is correct,
as Bryant, it was a catch, but they didn't call
(39:41):
it like that. My friend says. The NFL does what
they want, when they want, how they want, and that's it.
Four hundred dollars the Raiders. This Raiders defensive back forced
off fumble in the AFC Divisional playoffs, but the play
was overturned and ruled an incomplete path and what would
become part of NFL lore known as the tuk rule.
(40:04):
Game for Geisey for Gezy, Charles woods look at you
for Gayzy? Two for two? That is correct. Charles Woodson
was the Raider defensive back who made the play. You're
listening to Sports Jeopardy on the Bed Mather Show. Six
hundred dollars. This legendary power forward was on the wrong
side of what many believed to be a disportionate. It's
(40:28):
just on a bogus foul call in favor of the
Lakers in Game six of the two Western Conference Finals
in what became known as the Tim Donahey Game. Now,
he is probably more famous for calling a time out
his college team did not have.

Speaker 6 (41:01):

Speaker 1 (41:01):
Great? Thank you good? All right? Eight hundred dollars. This
former small forward and millions of broken hearted Utah Jazz
fans believe Michael Jordan fouled him by pushing off in
his famous NBA clinching shot NBA Finals clinching shot. I
know his first name, you don't know his last name. Yeah,
(41:25):
it's been twenty has been thirty years since this something
like that? Almost thirty years. Yeah, I can't believe it's
been almost thirty years. Uh, nobody, nobody, nobody, Chris, Chris.
That's all I got nothing. Brian Russell, Brian Russell, all right, well,
last one thousand dollars, umpire. Jim Joyce actually cried. He
(41:45):
apologized to this picture for incorrectly calling a runner safe
that would have been the final out of a perfect
game for the Detroit Canner.
