Pizza, Pizza. It's our number four, our number four, talking
some pro football this hour on this Labor day, the
first of September. So what does this reporting on Micah
Parsons being egotistical and self centered? That story came out
over the weekend, What does that signal to you? Also,
Dak Prescott said he was glad a solution was reached
(00:23):
with Micah Parsons. What does that say about Dak Prescott's
place in the Cowboy power structure? And how concerned should
the Raiders be with the conditioning of wide receiver Amari
Cooper after a viral video over the weekend. We'll talk
about all that and more right now here. It is
our number four. Have a great holiday, taking some carry
(00:46):
on baggage with you as you leave town. Welcome. In
the beginning of another hour of the Ben Malors Show.
We are in the air everywhere as we are Hot
on the case and trying not to wheeze and freeze
coast to coast, border to border and beyond on the
(01:08):
vast and abundantly powerful microphones of FSR.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
Amminating live from the wave.
Speaker 1 (01:17):
The title wave of Hot takes the world famous Fox
Sports Radio Studios as signed off on by not a burner,
he signs off on it. Our lead this hour from
the Chatter, from the Chatter and a story.
Speaker 2 (01:32):
Over the weekend.
Speaker 1 (01:34):
As we've been yapping away here mostly about college football,
believe it or not, don't tell anyone.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
It's a holiday, its Labor day, so why not.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
But over the weekend story came out fallout from the
Green Bay Packers deal with the Dallas Cowboys to bring
Micah Parsons to northern Wisconsin the frozen tundra. So if
you didn't see this, and maybe maybe you missed it,
over the weekend, you're watching college football, watching arch Manning
Puke call over himself and all these other games that
(02:05):
were of note. As our old friend Eddie used to say,
so from what we read Micah Parsons.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
On his way out.
Speaker 1 (02:13):
Now the Cowboys have led a couple of stories out.
One of them said that the podcast that Micah Parsons
has been doing the last couple of years created issues
in the Cowboy locker room that are said to have
gone all the way up to dak Prescott. Parsons also
reportedly was viewed by some of his Cowboy teammates as
(02:35):
being egotistical self centered and also just a schmuck that
was prior to the trade of the Packers. So let
us discuss the question, what does the latest reporting over
the weekend indicating that Micah Parsons was egotistical and self centered,
(02:55):
what does that signal to you? All Right, So on
this one, we have Joseph Stalin. We've also got the
Bubble and also Modello, and we'll combine all of these
things together and we are gonna make the Gabba goool.
We're gonna make the Gobba goool, all right, So to
(03:16):
kick off the festivities here, don't hate the player, right,
hate the game. Don't hate the player, hate the game.
You trade a star player. I was actually texting some
buddies of mine. I said, I guarantee you the minutes
after the Micah parsonstred, I said.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
This is what's gonna happen this weekend, and it happened.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
You trade a star player. You don't just ship the
player out of town and say good luck. You don't
say thanks for the memories. No, no, no, no no.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
You leak.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
You spin spin, spin, spin, spin spin. You become a doctor.
A spin doctor is what you do. You channel Joseph
Stalin in the nineteen thirties. Right, you go, Joseph Stalin,
use a systemic effort to a race individuals from history.
All right, And this player, this player is a good player.
(04:05):
It was a popular player, but he's no longer working
for you, And so we're gonna manipulate the photos and
censorship and all that stuff.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
It's not personal. It's pr warfare.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
It is you got to soften the body blow body
blow for the rank of file. So Micah Parsons had
a podcast. I don't know anyone that listened to it.
We talked about it sometimes, but only because somebody sent
us clips. We wouldn't actually listen to that. My god,
there's too many jock podcasts as it is. Holy crap,
these things are terrible. Anyway, Micah's podcast Shenanigans. That was
(04:40):
being positioned now by according to the cowboy people, they
leaked to their useful.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
Idiots in the media that it was a It was
a tactical nuke designed to blow up. Over that. It
blew up a little bit.
Speaker 1 (04:55):
It wasn't as big a deal over the weekend as
you would have thought it would have been.
Speaker 2 (04:59):
But this is the oldest trick in the book. It
really is right.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
You don't trade someone who is a popular player. You
assassinate the myth of the player on the way out
of time. It's like breaking up with someone and telling
your friends, oh, yeah, they were bad in bed.
Speaker 2 (05:17):
You know, it's like, okay, well are you with them?
Well well I don't know.
Speaker 1 (05:20):
Yeah, But you need the moral high ground, you need
the moral It's like, we had to do it, We
had to do it that We.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
Did it because we had to do it. And and
you know, he was toxic.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
Micah Parsons and this thing and the list calling Micah
Parsons and.
Speaker 2 (05:37):
I think he's overrated. We said it while he was
with the Cowys.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
But calling Michaeh Parsons egotistical and self centered, isn't that
just about every headline player in the NFL.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
They're all like that.
Speaker 1 (05:50):
You can name maybe one or two that's not like that,
but they're almost all like that. Now, that's another way
of describing though. When you say a player is egotistical
and they're lack self centered and all that stuff.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
It's like coachability. That's another buzzword, coachability. When you get
rid of a player, well, they're not coachable. We got
to get rid of a player.
Speaker 1 (06:09):
That's a magic word, magic phrase, coachability.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
It's very vague. It's a good phrase because it's vague.
It's damning on.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
The person that you're getting rid of, and it's really
impossible to disprove because it's someone's opinion.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
It's like the coach's opinion. Well, they never say.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
It on the record, so it's an off the record
quote that so and so is he's lacking coachability.
Speaker 2 (06:32):
But what does that really mean?
Speaker 1 (06:34):
Is that just because the owner didn't want to pay
the player and all that stuff, but he slapped that
label on a player and it's radio active.
Speaker 2 (06:42):
It's like, we had to trade that player he was
he was uncoachable, right, And not a winner, that's another one.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
Not a winner, not a leader, all those things, not
committed to the process or process. The translation is, we
didn't really want to pay the player, and so we
didn't want to want to play it. We didn't think
it was worth the money and so, but the fans
eat it up. Now, maybe not you, but those other
people eat this stuff up. When your team trades, when
you say bye bye to a star player, the league
(07:10):
start flying like shrapnel right in the air everywhere. And
it's not personal. It's business. It's spin, it's damage control,
and it's as predictable as a drunk person calling this show.
And we get it whether we want it or not,
that's what we get and we don't really control it.
It just kind of happens. And the same thing there
(07:31):
with Micah Parson's any star player. I remember when Manny
Ramirez got traded from the Red Sox. They said, Manny, well,
he's a got into it with the traveling secretary and this.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
Guy and that guy.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
He just buried the guy they went to La Battt
like five hundred because he was on He's on estrogen,
all right.
Speaker 2 (07:48):
Now, furthermore, we stay in Dallas.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
The Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott, Now Dak Prescott did not
He made some comments every weekend. He said he didn't
think Michah Parsons would be traded. He said, but the
move to the Packers, he said, did not surprise him either.
So if you didn't think he was going to be traded,
wouldn't that surprise you that the player was traded?
Speaker 2 (08:14):
That makes no sense.
Speaker 1 (08:16):
Prescott said he was glad A quote solution was reached
with Micah Parsons. So question, what does this say about
Dak Prescott's place with the Dallas Cowboys. So to me,
it is very very telling. Dak Prescott, based on the
contract that he got from Jerry Jones, He's supposed to
(08:40):
be the man. But how can you be the man
when you're not in the loop? Right, You're supposed to
be the franchise quarterback and we in here having a
conversation about not being aware of what's going on with
Michaeh Parsons.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
You're supposed to be.
Speaker 1 (08:54):
The guy like Roberto driving the bus, the bus driver, right,
our old buddy Roberto, who left the magic of radio
to drive a bus. You're supposed to drive the bus,
face of the franchise, cornerstone, all that.
Speaker 2 (09:07):
Crap, right, all that stuff.
Speaker 1 (09:10):
And yet when it came to an opportunity for Micah Parsons,
would he stay?
Speaker 2 (09:15):
Would he go?
Speaker 1 (09:16):
Dak Prescott's I was surprised by this, But then I
wasn't surprised by this one, Okay, But when it came
to Micah Parsons, Dak Prescott, was he in the twilight zone?
Is that where he was no influence? It shows you
he does not have a seat at the table. He's
essentially sitting at the kids table. Dak Prescott when it
comes to the Cowboys, if you're the franchise quarterback, now
(09:38):
you're the franchise quarterback, you're supposed to have a voice
in the room, and it sounds it sounds like he's
anywhere near that. Tom Brady had some say, Maholmes has
some say right now, Peyton Manning had some say back
back in the day. And Dak Prescott, we don't. We
know he's not that good a player. Yet the perception
(10:00):
is based on the amount of money that he's paying.
He is that kind of cowards you're paying him that
he's that kind of player. But Dak Prescott, he's the
guy that shows up to the company meeting and doesn't
even know the agenda. That's Dak Prescott, right, or better
way to say it, Like there's a carnival going on
in Jerry Jones. He's making trade, you know, he's running
the carnival in Jerry's world. And then you've got Dak
(10:21):
Prescott who's buying a corn dog at the carnival. That's
what you've got, and we get he's not a franchise quarterback. Right,
But this is rather obviously everyone, this little exercise, that
he's more of a tenant in Dak Prescott's kind of
renting space there in Jerry's world, and it's it's one
of those things where Jerry's the landlord.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
He's always been the landlord, and at any.
Speaker 1 (10:43):
Moment he can jack up the rent on Dak Prescott,
raise up the rent and all that stuff, toss you
the eviction notice and tell you you got to pack
your stuff.
Speaker 2 (10:51):
Get out of here. I get out of here.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
If you're the true franchise quarterback, if you're supposed to
be the franchise quarterback, then you supposed to be the
one with the keys to the building. And Dak Prescott,
I don't think he even knows where the spare key is,
where it's hidden. I don't think he knows that at
this particular point. So, now, what does that tell us?
That tells me, I'll go first. That tells me that
(11:16):
the Cowboys they don't trust Dak Prescott, they don't believe
in Dak Prescott all of that. They like him, don't
get me wrong. They like Dak Prescott. They paid him
a lot of money and he puts up numbers against
bad teams. He's a stat bandito and it's fine. But
when it comes to actual power, so this was a chance,
(11:39):
this was a chance to have actual power. Not in
the bubble, not in the bubble of trust. Not in
the bubble of trust, forget about it. Jerry Jones does
not view Dak Prescott as some kind of superstar quarterback
that he's a partner with. Where if Mahomes was in Dallas,
(11:59):
you gotta think it would be different, right, Or there's
a few other Joe Burrow, Josh Allen, someone along those lines.
But Jerry's like, well, you know, he keeps us competitive
and that's fine. We pay him a lot of money.
And he's an employee. He's not part of the upper
management team. He's a good partner, good employee, not a partner,
(12:21):
good employee, you know, not a partner all right now,
Dak good enough to hang around and put up some
empty stats. And the Cowboys are somewhat relevant. They weren't
last year. He got hurt and they'll sell a few jerseys.
Speaker 2 (12:34):
And that's that. And it's not in the inner circle.
Speaker 1 (12:38):
He's not in the bubblo trust, as we've said, and
he's the prom date, not the not the bride, not
the bride. All right, now, last thing, we go to Vegas, baby,
We go to Vegas. And that is where the Raiders.
At the end of last week, the Raiders went out
and added Amari Cooper, who last played for the team
when they were in Oakland before they lost their so
(13:01):
and so Amari Cooper wide receiver, went there last week
and thinking they were bringing back this sleek Ferrari, Amari Cooper,
who's put up some good numbers in his career, and
he was all excited there. Everyone's, oh, we got a
good receiver here, and instead they might have just pulled
off what looks.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
To be little more than a used minivan.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
They added a used minivan with a couple of dents
on the side and the tires got a lot of
wear and tear on it, and the check engine light
is currently flickering on the dashboard.
Speaker 2 (13:35):
So there was a video get to the point, please.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
So there was a video over the weekend that went
viral that some are making the declaration that they the
Raiders got hoodwinked. They were led astray that Amari Cooper
is out of shape, based on a second long video
clip that made the rounds, so question how concerned should
(13:59):
the Raiders be with the conditioning of wide receiver. Amari
Cooper certainly did not look in tip top physical condition,
and doing overnight talk radio, I know tiptok physical condition.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
So I looked at the video clip a couple.
Speaker 1 (14:15):
Of times of Amari Cooper, and after several minutes of deliberation,
I have determined that we should pump the brakes right here.
Pump the brakes on this. Amari is not for those
of you that are blind. He is not a blubber
guts out there waggling around like he's auditioning for a
(14:36):
role in a sumo movie or.
Speaker 2 (14:38):
Something like that.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
He's not that he's a few pounds over where he
needs to be for his fighting weight. It would appear,
and at worst he looks Amari Cooper. The Raiders looks
like a guy prepared to crack open a medello and
PLoP down on a lazy boy recliner, take a power nap,
and have some games play in the background. He's got
(15:01):
the dad body. The dad body's creeping in. But on
the Mallard scale of panic, the mal Of scale of
panic from Zen yoga retreat being a ten to dumpster
fire at a fireworks factory, being a being a one,
being a one. Here I'm hovering around a six. I'm
(15:23):
around a six, which is like a neighborhood grill caught
on fire. Neighborhood grill caught on fire. It's contains really
no drama or anything like that. It's a little concerning, sure,
but hardly worth sending in the fire trucks and all that.
Football players I don't think are swimsuit models.
Speaker 2 (15:42):
Maybe they are, now I don't know. I don't think
they are, and they don't.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
They don't have to look These football players don't have
to look like they just stepped off the cover of
Men's Health. Now, you'd like them to be in tip
top physical shape. But what matters is whether Amari Cooper
can still brought on crisp routes or roots, depending how
you look at it. And can he separate? The key
thing is separation. Can you separate from defenders and not
(16:09):
keel over in the fetal position and start sucking your
thumb and like you just had Thanksgiving dinner and you're
tired and you need a nap and all this stuff.
Speaker 2 (16:17):
But if he's sluggish the Raiders.
Speaker 1 (16:20):
They end up with a very expensive couch potato instead
of a chain moving addition to the offense.
Speaker 2 (16:28):
Right, but more likely than not, a Mari Cooper.
Speaker 1 (16:31):
Based on the second long video clip, it's a guy
shaking off the offseason Russ.
Speaker 2 (16:37):
He did not go to training camp. He was signed
late at the very last minute.
Speaker 1 (16:41):
The season begins in a couple of days, and Mary
Cooper agreed to a contract at the end of last year.
And so rather than the viral panic which is out there,
it's nothing more than a social media mirage, is what
it is. Right, It's a hallucination in Sin City there
and a Cooper does not need to win some kind
(17:01):
of Mister Universe contest or anything like that. He just
needs to win third down and that's it.
Speaker 3 (17:06):
Now.
Speaker 2 (17:06):
I don't trust him.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
He's had some issues with his hands and some some
fumble problems and some drop problems and stuff. But if
the dad body shows up three weeks from now, then
we've got something. I've heard a couple of weeks working
out here, he'll be ready to go. As long as
he's got the footwork down, he'll be in good ship.
Speaker 2 (17:24):
It is the.

His wisdom unless he's not.
Speaker 1 (20:37):
Yeah you do, Larry de says, Blair is eating peppers

We'll say hello to Eenie Meenie miney Moe.
Speaker 1 (21:08):
Let's say hello to moving man Matt, who's in Boston.
Speaker 2 (21:13):
Hello, moving man, Matt. Welcome.
Speaker 5 (21:16):
What's going on? Is again hopeful beginning of the week
with football around the corner here, the real football, not
that college craft that everyone gets.
Speaker 7 (21:25):
Off on up on.
Speaker 1 (21:26):
No, Well, this was a big weekend for college football.
But now we can get now we can settle in, Matt.
Speaker 5 (21:32):
Yeah, because there was no NFL. That's why it was
a big weekday.
Speaker 2 (21:36):
Yeah. Well, starting Thursday, Thursday night, it's on.
Speaker 5 (21:41):
Their game kind of lost this luster. Although the Cowboys,
you know, day Giants, man, it's always straight. When the
Cowboys just something self implode. Cherry is so consistent with
being a terrible GM. It's great, really great.
Speaker 1 (22:01):
Well, he's a great businessman, So whether he's a bad
gym or not, he's a hell of a businessman. The
Cowboys are there. Jerry's a maestro at creating headlines. So
it works out. Your Giants don't get the headlines. I
know you're a Giants fan. They don't get the headlines.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
Well, it's I.
Speaker 5 (22:18):
Would also appeal to the rest of the Giants fans
out there, all three of them that listen to your show,
A pump the breaks. They call it a rebuild for
a reason.
Speaker 1 (22:32):
That's a scam. You know, rebuilds a scam term. You
know that it's a scam term.
Speaker 5 (22:37):
I will pay seven wins, six wins. I will pay
that because that's progress.
Speaker 1 (22:42):
You have been beaten down. You have been beaten down,
Matt by terrible giant football teams. What are you going
to do when Daniel Jones goes out and leads the
NFL and passing.
Speaker 2 (22:51):
Yards this year?
Speaker 5 (22:51):
All stop it?
Speaker 1 (22:56):
He leads the cults of the playoffs. Daniel Jones, Danny Dimes,
that's not happened. That shouldn't That shouldn't happen. I don't
think you have to worry about that happening.
Speaker 5 (23:08):
They are actually doing the right thing with and I
don't know. I rest Russell Wilson wants the right But
Britain veterans draft the young guy that you perceived to
be your future and and bring him along instead of
throwing them into the fire. I agree with it all so.
Speaker 2 (23:26):
All right.
Speaker 1 (23:26):
You do realize, though, the fail rate is just as
much when you don't play them right away.
Speaker 2 (23:31):
As when you play them right away.
Speaker 1 (23:32):
It's it's not like the people think, well, if you
don't play the quarterback right away, you're going to have
this great success.
Speaker 2 (23:37):
Now they usually suck to you. Just don't play.
Speaker 5 (23:40):
I want it, though, So.
Speaker 1 (23:41):
I don't believe that you wanted Jackson Dart. I don't
believe that.
Speaker 5 (23:45):
Oh I got. I have receipts. I wanted dark and
scant of or. I was very vocal and I wanted
to have to cut. They drafted exactly how I wanted
the draft.
Speaker 1 (23:54):
Good so when they when they fail, we can blame you. Yeah,
all right, man, be safe. Well, yeah back home? Are
you going back on the road.
Speaker 5 (24:03):
I had my one day consugle visit home and okay,
I will be out there by the end of the
next week.
Speaker 2 (24:10):
Oh are you coming back out to the West coast?
Speaker 7 (24:12):
Huh?
Speaker 3 (24:12):
All right?
Speaker 5 (24:12):
Will I have a delivery in Marino Valley and I
will be in LA with a delivery.
Speaker 2 (24:17):
