Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello and welcome. It's our name Bear four Hour four
Ready to go, and we start with a crazy tale
from the shores of the Mississippi Rover, the New Orleans
Saints legend Drew Brees saying that he could no longer
throw right handed. No longer throw right handed? Your thoughts
(00:22):
on that, also, knowing what we know now, did Drew
Brees make a mistake in continuing his NFL career going
back all the way to twenty six? And Roger Goodell
is excited. In an interview, he said he's excited for
Travis Kelcey sleeping with Taylor Swift that relationship. What is
(00:43):
your position on the NFL converting swifties into football fans.
We'll talk about that as well. Have a wonderful thanks, Gevan.

this is actually happening on Thanksgiving. We are in the

Way Tire Buying Show. Be harleave this hour coming from
(02:05):
the Bayou. And that is where a former NFL star
revealed a rather shocking development. And you talk about Adam
left Field. Now you know the story by the way
outa left field. I probably shouldn't go down this road,
but what the hell, it's Thanksgiving. My bosses aren't listening.
So the term out of left field comes from the
legend as it comes from Chicago. And I heard this
(02:28):
years ago and I believe it to be true. It
could be completely wrong, but the legend is and I
think this was at Wrigleyfield. It might have been at
the stadium before Wriggleyfield, but I think it was at
wrigley Field. And there was a mental hospital out behind
the outfield wall. It was like a couple streets behind
left field, and people that stood in left field at
(02:50):
the ballpark it was in Chicago, and they heard people
screaming from the mental hospital. So the term out in
left field is actually it started as a baseball Anyway,
this story, boy, that came out of note that's what's
known as a non sequitor. Kids. Yeah, all right, So anyway,
the story that I did not expect to be talking
about here involving Drew Brees is Drew Brees making a comeback,
(03:15):
the former Sants quarterback. That would be no. How about
the opposite that he revealed that his arm is broken.
His right arm is broken. Say what? Yeah, Speaking on
some radio show recently, Drew Brees said, quote, I'll let
you in on a little fact. I don't throw with
my right arm anymore, said the future Hall of Fame quarterback.
(03:39):
He said, my right arm does not work. That's a
direct quote. My right arm does not work. Now, when
this is. Quote continues, when I throw in the backyard
right now, I throw left handed. Oh, look at that.
He could pitch man. There have been a few pictures
that have done that. None of them have been all
that good. Anyway, he continues, He says, I can play pickleball. Guy,
(04:02):
he's playing pickleball. How old is he? Ninety? He says,
I can play pickleball because it's below the waist. But
anything above my shoulders I have a hard time with close.
Quote Now, why does Brees have a hard time? For
those that don't recall, Drew Brees suffered a catastrophic shoulder injury. Snap,
crackle pop. He was playing for the old San Diego Charged. Yep,
(04:24):
San Diego used to have an NFL team and they
were loved. They had so many great fans. They had
a cool ballpark in Mission Valley. Man was at a
good time. But you know that was that was another life.
So this is back almost a generation ago in twenty
oh five New Year's Eve twenty oh five and Breeze
(04:44):
was injured and that's when this all began. So let
us discuss the question. Drew Brees Saints Lenchend Drew Brees
saying that he can no longer throw right handed. Your
thoughts on this development. So I've We've got pept Bridge Farm, Pharmaceuticals,
and Meteoror and we will combine all of these things
(05:07):
together and we are going to make a wonderful, wonderful brisket,
which is actually we were having a production meeting early
and I pointed out, I think the plan today is brisket,
not turkey brisket. All right, So to kick off here,
my first thought on Drew Brees saying that he can
(05:27):
no longer throw right handed, is are we getting the
whole story? I was actually texting, not that you really
care what I'm doing, but I was texting some friends
of mine that have worked in the media, and a
buddy of mine's like, ah, I think he's exaggerating. So
is this being imbellished? Now Here's what I said when
I was asked that, we said it's being embellished, it's
(05:48):
not legit. I had an Aha moment. I had an
AHA moment, the great awakening, and I realized I've interviewed
Drew Brees a few times over the years, and he
is a choir boy. He is a guy that is
he just doesn't lie. We all know people like that.
(06:09):
Maybe you're like, maybe you're like that, but realizing what
he's like. He is not the Artistan of the Bullpucky.
He's not like that like our friend Jay Scoop who's
celebrating Thanksgiving in the Ukraine today. And then I pivoted.
My next thought was at tuscal Loose. I thought about
tuscal Loose, and I thought, I said, somewhere in Alabama.
(06:32):
In tuscal Loose, Alabama, Nick Saban at a very large mansion,
very large mansion, probably on a hill in front of
a lake. Nick Saban has a pie eating grin as
he chows down on his little Debbie cakes. Because this
is a pet fridge farms remembers type molment. Do you
remember when Nick Saban was the head football coach of
(06:54):
the Miami team and he wanted Drew Brees. But what happened?
The Dolphins medical staff said no, they put the kebash
on that, they rejected it. Why did the Miami Dolphins
medical people say you can't sign this guy? They advised
Nick Saban not to sign him. The reason why the
Miami Dolphins medical team, You go back and look this up.
(07:15):
I'm not making it up. They told Drew Brees that
his shoulder was too messed up. It was a career
ending injury. He had to retire. He was not gonna
be able to come back and be successful. Now, obviously
he came back and was a Hall of Famer, So
that part of it's true. But this latest development certainly
changes the story. It changes the story a ton that
they weren't totally wrong like Drew Brees in this respect.
(07:38):
He went to Miami, he talked to the doctors. They
said no. But the Dolphins people have been vindicated almost
twenty years later, that this has happened. Now furthermore, as
we continue to unpack the story, knowing what we know now,
knowing what we have learned, now, did Drew Brees make
a mistake by continuing his career? He said his right
(08:03):
arm does not work. So I am shaking my head. No,
he did not make a mistake. And it's it's like life,
as somebody wiser than me told me when I was
a kid, Life's just a bunch of choices, right, each
choice you make, and then it's like a game. You're
playing a video game. Every choice you make is another choice.
(08:25):
Right you decided, maybe you're working today, and so you
agreed to work, or you were told to work, but
you made that decision to go up to work. So
you show up to work, and then you have to
decide when you get to work if you're gonna actually
be a hard worker or be lazy. So then you
have to make that decision. And then you're like, everything's
a decision. And anyway, he had a decision. He was
at a fork in the road and Drew Brees at
(08:48):
he was twenty six years old in twenty six. Twenty
six year old Drew Brees in twenty oh six, he
had played four plus years in the NFL. At this
point he had earned about thirteen million. Now, with proper
financial investment, you should be fine on thirteen million. You
invest that in a nice portfolio, you should be okay. Now,
(09:08):
thirteen million in real world terms is probably about five
and a half million after taxes, and you pay your
agent and all that, but still five and a half
million dollars at age twenty six. You buy some some
Wall Street investments on some stock options that pay dividends.
You also get some rental properties. You're good to go.
But the doctor said, hey, retire, So Drew Brees. What
(09:31):
he did. He opened up a bag of pharmaceuticals, much
like Jim Orsay. It was what we call the matrix moment,
one of the great lines in cinema. You take the
blue pill, the story ends. The dolphin teen doctor said,
take the blue pill. The story's gonna end. You'll wake
up in your bed, your shoulder's gonna work. Okay, you
(09:51):
live a normal life. You've got the five and a
half six million dollars. You take the red pill. You
stay in Wonderland, which is in the Bayou, and you
see how far down the rabbit hole you want to go.
And Drew Brees took the red pill, and in exchange,
here's the deal. It's a Faustian bargain. Drew Brees, here's
(10:12):
what he got. He got the riches of Solomon. Right,
he had a ton of money. He can't raise his
right arm above his head, which if you know he's
we don't think he lies, so we think this is true.
But he got a pile of pesos. And how much
money are we talking about it? He had Again at
the time we told you there was a pivot point.
Drew Brees had earned five and a half about five
(10:33):
and a half six million after taxes. Now we don't
know what he's made after taxes in New Orleans, but
we do know he has been paid before taxes two
hundred and fifty six million dollars. So I ask you,
in your life, I don't know how old you are.
Maybe you're a young person, maybe you're older, maybe you're
middle aged. I don't know. But at this point in
your life, I told you that in fifteen years, part
(10:54):
of your body's going to stop working, like your arm,
but in exchange for that, you're going to have two
hundred and fifty six million dollars. Would you take that deal?
The answer is yes, And you said, well, no, when
you have the bad arm, you wouldn't. Yeah, at the
time you have the bad arm, you don't take the deal.
But before that you take the deal. All right, Party Show.
We're gonna pivot away from the Drew Brees story because
(11:15):
Roger the Dodger, Roger Goodell making headlines this Thanksgiving week.
The NFL Commissioner gave his rubber stamp of approval on
Travis Kelcey noodling with Taylor Swift. I know you're very
concerned about it. What other business does the boss comment
on a casual dating relationship. But here we are, so
(11:38):
Roger Goodell doing a television interview. He explained why their
relationship he said, is quote great for the league, and
he gave the usual listen, they're happy. He was smiling,
Roger Goodell. He said, they seem to be enjoying their relationship.
That's great in and of itself. But by the way,
(12:01):
what do we always say about the word butt? You remember?
Come on, you remember everything before the word butt is
a lie. So everything I just said Goodell was lying.
And here's the key part of the quote. He said,
but it has connected more fans of Taylor's and more
fans of the NFL in some ways to see that
(12:21):
they have a connection. Goddell opined, Now they have a
connection to our game and to Taylor close quote. So
what is your position on the NFL converting the swifties
and air quotes into hart O football fans? So I
am giving this one a little bit of side ee.
I am the NFL, and I realized it's a big deal.
(12:43):
And trust me, I do this TV show every weekend.
My producers by my guy Vinnie and Boston, the guys
at NBC Sports Boston. They want me to work Taylor
Swift in the show. Why why not?
Speaker 2 (12:54):
Right?
Speaker 1 (12:54):
It's good for ratings because maybe some loser is flipping
through the channels and here's Taylor Swift name or Caesar
photo and they keep watching. So far it hasn't happened,
but maybe it'll. Maybe this will be the weekend it happened.
I don't know. But the NFL, well, it's great for publicity.
And they probably sold a bunch of Kelsey jerseys and
(13:16):
whatever shirt Taylor Swift wears with the Chief's logo on it.
So it's a short term marketing boom. So it's shirt
short term gain for long term net zero like long
term methinks, not so much like these swifties. It's like
(13:37):
a meteor, a meteor passing. It's like a meteor passing
through the NFL and then dissolving into the darkened night sky. Yeah,
it's kind of cool and stuff, but you know it's
eventually going to disappear. As Andrea the astrology Lady would
say off in the distance. So if Taylor Swift dumps
(14:00):
Travis Kelcey today todday, Okay, if that happens, and let's
just say since we're living in the twilight zone. Let's
say Taylor Swift, like in Argentina, meets a badminton player.
What do you think happens? Because here's what I think happened.
Taylor Swift meets the most famous badminton player who also
has to work seven jobs because who pays badminton players?
(14:22):
And the Swift these all of a sudden become fans
of the shuttlecock. All right. There, they're running out to
buy shuttlecocks because they love badminton all of a sudden,
because Taylor Swift is dating a badminton player. But then
that doesn't last either because who wants to own a
shuttle cock?
Speaker 3 (14:36):
All right?
Speaker 1 (14:37):
It is the Ben Mahlor Show. If you'd like to

Now let's get back to the hot Talk jubilee with
(16:47):
big band.
Speaker 1 (16:49):
Rolling on through the overnight hours here and let's see
page down. People are still ranting about a Barry Sanders
rant that we had earlier in the overnight. Let's see
here age down. Here's what it says. A strange event
happened tonight or this morning. I decided to watch the
(17:10):
Barry Sanders story on Amazon. However, I turned it off
after the Redskins Lions playoff game nineteen eighty nine. My
memory of Sanders does not match up to the interpretation presented. Well,
they did use editorial freedom, they had the final cut.
(17:32):
Yeah that was I have not seen it, so I'll
have to check it out. But Barry Sanders had some
amazing runs, but he also had some terrible I mean
not everyone. You'll only remember the good stuff as the
time goes on. Let's go to the folks, we'll say
hello to here's a guy wrought off a milk carton,
Andy the comic book guy who went into hiding, and
(17:54):
it just happened to coincide with the Buffalo Bills falling apart.
But now he is back. Hello, Andy the comic book guy.
Speaker 7 (18:02):
You know I knew you were going to say that,
but you know, I just got really busy the last
two weeks. I've been going to bed at nine point thirty,
falling asleep when I tucking the kid. You know what happens.
But Happy Thanksgiving, Ben, and Thanksgiving Eve.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
You know that's you made. You made the Bill's Mafia
look bad. Andy the comic book And you got your wish,
You got your pound of flesh. Doorsy's gone, You got
your your guys gone. Yeah, And what happened?
Speaker 7 (18:26):
What happened the following week?
Speaker 1 (18:28):
They played the Jets. That's what happened. They played the Jets.
Speaker 7 (18:30):
Let's not like the Jets defense is a wash. Okay,
come on, come on, let's be legit here all.
Speaker 8 (18:36):
Rightly annihilated the Jets defense. So anyway, I'm here to
issue a happy Thanksgiving Eve and the filling crew. You
guys are great, you guys do a great job.
Speaker 7 (18:46):
It is the day before Thanksgiving.
Speaker 8 (18:48):
Though, as I haven't gone to bed yet, so it
is that is incorrect.
Speaker 1 (18:52):
You at a bad take by you, just like you
were wrong about the Buffalo Bills.
Speaker 7 (18:57):
Just I think it's.
Speaker 2 (18:59):
Well, you know, all right, hey, let's not talk about
the Bill's.
Speaker 7 (19:01):
Talk about something that's objective, like, you know, the Miami
Dolphins not beating a winning team in over a calendar
year or.
Speaker 9 (19:10):
So.
Speaker 7 (19:11):
You know what, could I wish one more piece of thanks?
Speaker 1 (19:13):
I'd like, oh, hold on, hold on, hold on a sake.
I'm getting the vibe from Andy, the comic book guy
who I like, and you hosted your great comic book shop,
hosted the last Malor meet and greet we did in
selling Toughy. But I get the vibe that you hate
the Dolphins more than you love the Bills. That's the
vibe I'm getting.
Speaker 7 (19:29):
I just don't understand all the praise for a team
that hasn't accomplished anything in over two decades. I just
don't get it. Or a quarterback that hasn't completed a
full season ever in his career.
Speaker 2 (19:41):
I just don't understand.
Speaker 7 (19:43):
But anyway, Ben, yes, I would like to wish thanks
to Poppy's commercial casting director of the Buffalo Bills commercial,
which clearly never became his actual casting director, as I
don't think Poppy got the Russo thank you to that person.
That would have been terrible for everybody.
Speaker 1 (20:02):
Well, I don't know what it is. That's a that's
a former caller, no longer a caller, so I don't
know who that is.
Speaker 7 (20:08):
Oh well, interesting because I was gonna say, you know,
I have a gift for him, but I could give
it directly to the person who's actually intended for. I've
got a pair of chicken knee pads that's gonna give
him to Poppy to give to Mason the Millennial for
the next time they're hanging out, and you know, Mason's
looking at Poppy pop.
Speaker 1 (20:27):
I assue what you did there? All right, Well, very
funny Andy. I don't know if that made it on
the air, but thank you. There you go, Andy the
comic book guy hanging out. Let's say hello, who's next
year Edie Meanie, Miney Moe. Well, let's say hello to
Dad Gummet. What better fun to have on a Thanksgiving
morning than Dad Gummet. Hello, Dad gummt In Arkansas, big.

Then?

A roadkill right now?
Speaker 2 (23:43):
Picked up me a big old possum. I'm gonna take.
Speaker 1 (23:53):
Some people go to Walmart to buy a turkey. Our
our friend Dad Gumt just drives around the backwoods of
Arkansas looking for roadkill. He's like, I got thrilling it
up on his engine right now. We're talking.

I don't know? Oh, man alive?
Speaker 5 (24:33):
All right?
Speaker 1 (24:33):
Is the Ben Mallard Show.
Speaker 11 (24:35):
As we continue on here and for the final time
for me on this Thanksgiving, let's get you caught up
on everything going on with a man who.
Speaker 1 (24:48):
Is stuck in yesterday. I've seen horse and buggy as
a possibility for your nickname antiquated met night. Do you
even know what that means?
Speaker 3 (24:58):
Mednight Night? I've never heard that term.
Speaker 1 (25:02):
The men Knights live in Pennsylvania and.
Speaker 3 (25:04):
Ohio or men in Knights.
Speaker 1 (25:06):
Yeah, yeah, we're the ones that don't believe in technology.
They're stuck in the past. Aish no it's it's not
like Amish. It's different. It's a different branch, like they're.
Speaker 3 (25:16):
The same tree kind of idea.
Speaker 1 (25:18):
Though, notice that is incorrect. Men knights will be offended
if you call them amish, and amish people will be
offended if you say their men night.
Speaker 3 (25:24):
All right.
Speaker 1 (25:25):
Of course I might be talking on my ass. I
don't know, but I believe that to be true.
Speaker 6 (25:28):
Thankfully, it's unlikely they're listening, since I don't think they
have radios or believed.
Speaker 1 (25:32):
No, no, we are allowed to rip the hearing impaired and
the people that men knights that don't listen to radio.
Speaker 3 (25:37):
There we go.
Speaker 1 (25:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (25:39):
Anyway, we did have a full slate of NBA action
on Wednesday night, a big battle out East between the
Bucks and the Celtics, with Boston coming out one nineteen
one sixteen to move to twelve and three on the season.
They're perfect at home, still six and oh at TD Garden.
Jalen Brown with twenty six points and eight assists. Timberwolves
over the seventy six is one twelve to ninety nine minutes.
(26:00):
Soda is now eleven and three on the season. Some
late scores out West, Lakers clawed themselves back from down
twenty and even took the lead with a minute to go.
But then Kyrie Irving just putting.
Speaker 1 (26:13):
Dad as a Laker fanboy, I mean, Mike, I mean
when I say the Dallas Mavericks, Kyrie Irving the lead,
Uncle Drew and barely get out. You know, he's kept
his nose clean for a little bit, Kyrie. I'm waiting
racist or anything. I don't. I mean, wow, pretty impressive.
Speaker 3 (26:29):
I mean, I'm surprised every sign him at all. But uh,
I'm just.
Speaker 1 (26:33):
How many how many you know, for people to have out,
you know, drinking problems, drug pubs, Like how many days
you've been sober? For Kyrie, it's how many? How many
days have you've not done something to piss people off?
Speaker 6 (26:41):
Right?
Speaker 1 (26:41):
And I think he's all right. I think he's going okay.
Speaker 6 (26:43):
Yeah, I'm just curious to know which team implodes first,
the Clippers of the Mavericks.
Speaker 1 (26:48):
James Kyrie is involved in this? Your fanboy is? I
mean both are fanboy internal attackular fashion boy internal.
Speaker 3 (26:55):
That's actually a very objective take, right there?
Speaker 1 (26:58):
Are we doing another twenty minute? Yes, it's just the
game burg address yet again? Is that what we're doing?
Here four score and I know, I know. Anyway, it's
a you know what you should do. You should become
like a like a preacher doing a sermon, is what
you have.
Speaker 6 (27:11):
To be, like a teleg Yeah, television, national television, preaching
on every Sunday morning on every.
Speaker 1 (27:19):
People with the wheelchairs, and all of a sudden you
hit them on the shoulder and they can stand up
and work. Yes, yeah, that's realistic. That happened. Sure, why not?
Speaker 3 (27:25):
Faith healer? Is that what they call those? I don't know.
Speaker 1 (27:29):
Back in the old Country we call them con men?
But yeah, you know, whatever works.
Speaker 6 (27:32):
For I'm trying to be very uh let's just say
uh politically correct in regards to saying that.
Speaker 3 (27:39):
So anyway, Oh you're.
Speaker 1 (27:41):
Worried, Samuel, get upset? Yeah, people get upset about everything.
Who cares you? Chill out, go read a book. No

Speaker 6 (28:13):
Moving on Clippers over the Spurs one oh nine, one
oh two, with Greg Popovitch grabbing the microphone and flooring
his fans to not boot Kawhi Leonard saying, this is
not who we are.
Speaker 1 (28:24):
I said there, don't be classless, but the Spurs fans
are classless. They are and so is Popovich.
Speaker 6 (28:29):
Boot him even louder after that, and Kawhi Leonard responded
with twenty six points as the Clippers have now won
three games in a row after a five game losing streak.
Speaker 1 (28:39):
What a hot detrot team. The Clips are, man, they
are sexy on the.

The Ben Mawer Show. Okay, and you have a problem
with with that person talking.
Speaker 6 (29:15):
Well, if you want me to go only ninety seconds,

Speaker 1 (29:19):
Really, how about you don't pause every ten minutes? How
about that I don't pause.
Speaker 3 (29:23):
You interrupt and then I respond and I have.

Anyway forever Thanksgiving football games. The Packers have ruled out
Aaron Jones. He will not play today against the Lions,
Pete Carroll saying though tonight Gino Smith should take the
field against the forty nine Ers after he missed most
of the fourth quarter against the Rams last Sunday with
a shoulder injury.
Speaker 1 (30:18):
Back to you, big man, all right, hell Heloijah, Hell Helojah.
Are we good on this mark? Do I need to
promote insurance? I think we're good on that. Yes, good.
But he's debating. Oh, he says we're good, not that
I don't love, not that I don't love our our
friends do insurance. Now, David is the fry Daddy, and
he is in Pennsylvania, and he knows all about the
(30:39):
men Knights and the Amish. She says, we should be
living like these people in the past. The fry Daddy says.
He says technology is destroying the human race. Whooh, that's deep.
I don't think that's destroying it. To you, well, I
mean I think he likes radio, I guess, but he
doesn't like any of the new so he doesn't like
(31:01):
what he doesn't like. Well, everyone's like that. And trust me, Sha,
you're a young guy. But when you become uh a
bitter middle aged guy and an old, bitter old guy,
if you're lucky enough, you'll you'll hate everything that comes
after this. That's the way the world. Man it's it's
it's like the same crap happens over and over, like
you know, my grant. My parents probably hated the crap
that I liked when I was younger, and mine their
(31:22):
their parents hated the crap that they liked, swearing emails
and stuff like that. Well, back then you had to
swear and like that. You had to write it out
with your cursive writing or typewriter or something. They don't
even teach that in school anymore. I know I learned
how to cursive write and what typewriting you should you
should need because I didn't. I did not learn that.
But I learned cursive in fourth grade. Yeah, I learned.
(31:45):
I was not good at cursive, but I had to
do it a lot. And now you don't even have
to watch people even know have to son their name.
They just put an X. That's it. It is the
Bed Made show. Us take some calls here on a

Saints legend Drew Brees saying that he could no longer

Brees make a mistake in continuing his NFL career going
back all the way to twenty six? And Roger Goodell

Travis Kelcey sleeping with Taylor Swift that relationship. What is

and whimsically powerful microphones of fs are amm nating live
from the Pumpkin the Pumpkin Pie in the audio sky.
(01:45):
We are broadcasting live from the tire rack dot Com
studios tire ract dot Com. Well help you get there
and unmatched selection, fast, free shipping, free road hazard protection
and over ten thousand recommended in tyrack dot Com The
Way Tire Buying Show. Be harleave this hour coming from
(02:05):
the Bayou. And that is where a former NFL star
revealed a rather shocking development. And you talk about Adam
left Field. Now you know the story by the way
outa left field. I probably shouldn't go down this road,
but what the hell, it's Thanksgiving. My bosses aren't listening.
So the term out of left field comes from the
legend as it comes from Chicago. And I heard this
(02:28):
years ago and I believe it to be true. It
could be completely wrong, but the legend is and I
think this was at Wrigleyfield. It might have been at
the stadium before Wriggleyfield, but I think it was at
wrigley Field. And there was a mental hospital out behind
the outfield wall. It was like a couple streets behind
left field, and people that stood in left field at
(02:50):
the ballpark it was in Chicago, and they heard people
screaming from the mental hospital. So the term out in
left field is actually it started as a baseball Anyway,
this story, boy, that came out of note that's what's
known as a non sequitor. Kids. Yeah, all right, So anyway,
the story that I did not expect to be talking
about here involving Drew Brees is Drew Brees making a comeback,
(03:15):
the former Sants quarterback. That would be no. How about
the opposite that he revealed that his arm is broken.
His right arm is broken. Say what? Yeah, Speaking on
some radio show recently, Drew Brees said, quote, I'll let
you in on a little fact. I don't throw with
my right arm anymore, said the future Hall of Fame quarterback.
(03:39):
He said, my right arm does not work. That's a
direct quote. My right arm does not work. Now, when
this is. Quote continues, when I throw in the backyard
right now, I throw left handed. Oh, look at that.
He could pitch man. There have been a few pictures
that have done that. None of them have been all
that good. Anyway, he continues, He says, I can play pickleball. Guy,
(04:02):
he's playing pickleball. How old is he? Ninety? He says,
I can play pickleball because it's below the waist. But
anything above my shoulders I have a hard time with close.
Quote Now, why does Brees have a hard time? For
those that don't recall, Drew Brees suffered a catastrophic shoulder injury. Snap,
crackle pop. He was playing for the old San Diego Charged. Yep,
(04:24):
San Diego used to have an NFL team and they
were loved. They had so many great fans. They had
a cool ballpark in Mission Valley. Man was at a
good time. But you know that was that was another life.
So this is back almost a generation ago in twenty
oh five New Year's Eve twenty oh five and Breeze
(04:44):
was injured and that's when this all began. So let
us discuss the question. Drew Brees Saints Lenchend Drew Brees
saying that he can no longer throw right handed. Your
thoughts on this development. So I've We've got pept Bridge Farm, Pharmaceuticals,
and Meteoror and we will combine all of these things
(05:07):
together and we are going to make a wonderful, wonderful brisket,
which is actually we were having a production meeting early
and I pointed out, I think the plan today is brisket,
not turkey brisket. All right, So to kick off here,
my first thought on Drew Brees saying that he can
(05:27):
no longer throw right handed, is are we getting the
whole story? I was actually texting, not that you really
care what I'm doing, but I was texting some friends
of mine that have worked in the media, and a
buddy of mine's like, ah, I think he's exaggerating. So
is this being imbellished? Now Here's what I said when
I was asked that, we said it's being embellished, it's
(05:48):
not legit. I had an Aha moment. I had an
AHA moment, the great awakening, and I realized I've interviewed
Drew Brees a few times over the years, and he
is a choir boy. He is a guy that is
he just doesn't lie. We all know people like that.
(06:09):
Maybe you're like, maybe you're like that, but realizing what
he's like. He is not the Artistan of the Bullpucky.
He's not like that like our friend Jay Scoop who's
celebrating Thanksgiving in the Ukraine today. And then I pivoted.
My next thought was at tuscal Loose. I thought about
tuscal Loose, and I thought, I said, somewhere in Alabama.
(06:32):
In tuscal Loose, Alabama, Nick Saban at a very large mansion,
very large mansion, probably on a hill in front of
a lake. Nick Saban has a pie eating grin as
he chows down on his little Debbie cakes. Because this
is a pet fridge farms remembers type molment. Do you
remember when Nick Saban was the head football coach of
(06:54):
the Miami team and he wanted Drew Brees. But what happened?
The Dolphins medical staff said no, they put the kebash
on that, they rejected it. Why did the Miami Dolphins
medical people say you can't sign this guy? They advised
Nick Saban not to sign him. The reason why the
Miami Dolphins medical team, You go back and look this up.
(07:15):
I'm not making it up. They told Drew Brees that
his shoulder was too messed up. It was a career
ending injury. He had to retire. He was not gonna
be able to come back and be successful. Now, obviously
he came back and was a Hall of Famer, So
that part of it's true. But this latest development certainly
changes the story. It changes the story a ton that
they weren't totally wrong like Drew Brees in this respect.
(07:38):
He went to Miami, he talked to the doctors. They
said no. But the Dolphins people have been vindicated almost
twenty years later, that this has happened. Now furthermore, as
we continue to unpack the story, knowing what we know now,
knowing what we have learned, now, did Drew Brees make
a mistake by continuing his career? He said his right
(08:03):
arm does not work. So I am shaking my head. No,
he did not make a mistake. And it's it's like life,
as somebody wiser than me told me when I was
a kid, Life's just a bunch of choices, right, each
choice you make, and then it's like a game. You're
playing a video game. Every choice you make is another choice.
(08:25):
Right you decided, maybe you're working today, and so you
agreed to work, or you were told to work, but
you made that decision to go up to work. So
you show up to work, and then you have to
decide when you get to work if you're gonna actually
be a hard worker or be lazy. So then you
have to make that decision. And then you're like, everything's
a decision. And anyway, he had a decision. He was
at a fork in the road and Drew Brees at
(08:48):
he was twenty six years old in twenty six. Twenty
six year old Drew Brees in twenty oh six, he
had played four plus years in the NFL. At this
point he had earned about thirteen million. Now, with proper
financial investment, you should be fine on thirteen million. You
invest that in a nice portfolio, you should be okay. Now,
(09:08):
thirteen million in real world terms is probably about five
and a half million after taxes, and you pay your
agent and all that, but still five and a half
million dollars at age twenty six. You buy some some
Wall Street investments on some stock options that pay dividends.
You also get some rental properties. You're good to go.
But the doctor said, hey, retire, So Drew Brees. What
(09:31):
he did. He opened up a bag of pharmaceuticals, much
like Jim Orsay. It was what we call the matrix moment,
one of the great lines in cinema. You take the
blue pill, the story ends. The dolphin teen doctor said,
take the blue pill. The story's gonna end. You'll wake
up in your bed, your shoulder's gonna work. Okay, you
(09:51):
live a normal life. You've got the five and a
half six million dollars. You take the red pill. You
stay in Wonderland, which is in the Bayou, and you
see how far down the rabbit hole you want to go.
And Drew Brees took the red pill, and in exchange,
here's the deal. It's a Faustian bargain. Drew Brees, here's
(10:12):
what he got. He got the riches of Solomon. Right,
he had a ton of money. He can't raise his
right arm above his head, which if you know he's
we don't think he lies, so we think this is true.
But he got a pile of pesos. And how much
money are we talking about it? He had Again at
the time we told you there was a pivot point.
Drew Brees had earned five and a half about five
(10:33):
and a half six million after taxes. Now we don't
know what he's made after taxes in New Orleans, but
we do know he has been paid before taxes two
hundred and fifty six million dollars. So I ask you,
in your life, I don't know how old you are.
Maybe you're a young person, maybe you're older, maybe you're
middle aged. I don't know. But at this point in
your life, I told you that in fifteen years, part
(10:54):
of your body's going to stop working, like your arm,
but in exchange for that, you're going to have two
hundred and fifty six million dollars. Would you take that deal?
The answer is yes, And you said, well, no, when
you have the bad arm, you wouldn't. Yeah, at the
time you have the bad arm, you don't take the deal.
But before that you take the deal. All right, Party Show.
We're gonna pivot away from the Drew Brees story because
(11:15):
Roger the Dodger, Roger Goodell making headlines this Thanksgiving week.
The NFL Commissioner gave his rubber stamp of approval on
Travis Kelcey noodling with Taylor Swift. I know you're very
concerned about it. What other business does the boss comment
on a casual dating relationship. But here we are, so
(11:38):
Roger Goodell doing a television interview. He explained why their
relationship he said, is quote great for the league, and
he gave the usual listen, they're happy. He was smiling,
Roger Goodell. He said, they seem to be enjoying their relationship.
That's great in and of itself. But by the way,
(12:01):
what do we always say about the word butt? You remember?
Come on, you remember everything before the word butt is
a lie. So everything I just said Goodell was lying.
And here's the key part of the quote. He said,
but it has connected more fans of Taylor's and more
fans of the NFL in some ways to see that
(12:21):
they have a connection. Goddell opined, Now they have a
connection to our game and to Taylor close quote. So
what is your position on the NFL converting the swifties
and air quotes into hart O football fans? So I
am giving this one a little bit of side ee.
I am the NFL, and I realized it's a big deal.
(12:43):
And trust me, I do this TV show every weekend.
My producers by my guy Vinnie and Boston, the guys
at NBC Sports Boston. They want me to work Taylor
Swift in the show. Why why not?
Speaker 2 (12:54):
Right?
Speaker 1 (12:54):
It's good for ratings because maybe some loser is flipping
through the channels and here's Taylor Swift name or Caesar
photo and they keep watching. So far it hasn't happened,
but maybe it'll. Maybe this will be the weekend it happened.
I don't know. But the NFL, well, it's great for publicity.
And they probably sold a bunch of Kelsey jerseys and
(13:16):
whatever shirt Taylor Swift wears with the Chief's logo on it.
So it's a short term marketing boom. So it's shirt
short term gain for long term net zero like long
term methinks, not so much like these swifties. It's like
(13:37):
a meteor, a meteor passing. It's like a meteor passing
through the NFL and then dissolving into the darkened night sky. Yeah,
it's kind of cool and stuff, but you know it's
eventually going to disappear. As Andrea the astrology Lady would
say off in the distance. So if Taylor Swift dumps
(14:00):
Travis Kelcey today todday, Okay, if that happens, and let's
just say since we're living in the twilight zone. Let's
say Taylor Swift, like in Argentina, meets a badminton player.
What do you think happens? Because here's what I think happened.
Taylor Swift meets the most famous badminton player who also
has to work seven jobs because who pays badminton players?
(14:22):
And the Swift these all of a sudden become fans
of the shuttlecock. All right. There, they're running out to
buy shuttlecocks because they love badminton all of a sudden,
because Taylor Swift is dating a badminton player. But then
that doesn't last either because who wants to own a
shuttle cock?
Speaker 3 (14:36):
All right?
Speaker 1 (14:37):
It is the Ben Mahlor Show. If you'd like to

Now let's get back to the hot Talk jubilee with
(16:47):
big band.
Speaker 1 (16:49):
Rolling on through the overnight hours here and let's see
page down. People are still ranting about a Barry Sanders
rant that we had earlier in the overnight. Let's see
here age down. Here's what it says. A strange event
happened tonight or this morning. I decided to watch the
(17:10):
Barry Sanders story on Amazon. However, I turned it off
after the Redskins Lions playoff game nineteen eighty nine. My
memory of Sanders does not match up to the interpretation presented. Well,
they did use editorial freedom, they had the final cut.
(17:32):
Yeah that was I have not seen it, so I'll
have to check it out. But Barry Sanders had some
amazing runs, but he also had some terrible I mean
not everyone. You'll only remember the good stuff as the
time goes on. Let's go to the folks, we'll say
hello to here's a guy wrought off a milk carton,
Andy the comic book guy who went into hiding, and
(17:54):
it just happened to coincide with the Buffalo Bills falling apart.
But now he is back. Hello, Andy the comic book guy.
Speaker 7 (18:02):
You know I knew you were going to say that,
but you know, I just got really busy the last
two weeks. I've been going to bed at nine point thirty,
falling asleep when I tucking the kid. You know what happens.
But Happy Thanksgiving, Ben, and Thanksgiving Eve.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
You know that's you made. You made the Bill's Mafia
look bad. Andy the comic book And you got your wish,
You got your pound of flesh. Doorsy's gone, You got
your your guys gone. Yeah, And what happened?
Speaker 7 (18:26):
What happened the following week?
Speaker 1 (18:28):
They played the Jets. That's what happened. They played the Jets.
Speaker 7 (18:30):
Let's not like the Jets defense is a wash. Okay,
come on, come on, let's be legit here all.
Speaker 8 (18:36):
Rightly annihilated the Jets defense. So anyway, I'm here to
issue a happy Thanksgiving Eve and the filling crew. You
guys are great, you guys do a great job.
Speaker 7 (18:46):
It is the day before Thanksgiving.
Speaker 8 (18:48):
Though, as I haven't gone to bed yet, so it
is that is incorrect.
Speaker 1 (18:52):
You at a bad take by you, just like you
were wrong about the Buffalo Bills.
Speaker 7 (18:57):
Just I think it's.
Speaker 2 (18:59):
Well, you know, all right, hey, let's not talk about
the Bill's.
Speaker 7 (19:01):
Talk about something that's objective, like, you know, the Miami
Dolphins not beating a winning team in over a calendar
year or.
Speaker 9 (19:10):
So.
Speaker 7 (19:11):
You know what, could I wish one more piece of thanks?
Speaker 1 (19:13):
I'd like, oh, hold on, hold on, hold on a sake.
I'm getting the vibe from Andy, the comic book guy
who I like, and you hosted your great comic book shop,
hosted the last Malor meet and greet we did in
selling Toughy. But I get the vibe that you hate
the Dolphins more than you love the Bills. That's the
vibe I'm getting.
Speaker 7 (19:29):
I just don't understand all the praise for a team
that hasn't accomplished anything in over two decades. I just
don't get it. Or a quarterback that hasn't completed a
full season ever in his career.
Speaker 2 (19:41):
I just don't understand.
Speaker 7 (19:43):
But anyway, Ben, yes, I would like to wish thanks
to Poppy's commercial casting director of the Buffalo Bills commercial,
which clearly never became his actual casting director, as I
don't think Poppy got the Russo thank you to that person.
That would have been terrible for everybody.
Speaker 1 (20:02):
Well, I don't know what it is. That's a that's
a former caller, no longer a caller, so I don't
know who that is.
Speaker 7 (20:08):
Oh well, interesting because I was gonna say, you know,
I have a gift for him, but I could give
it directly to the person who's actually intended for. I've
got a pair of chicken knee pads that's gonna give
him to Poppy to give to Mason the Millennial for
the next time they're hanging out, and you know, Mason's
looking at Poppy pop.
Speaker 1 (20:27):
I assue what you did there? All right, Well, very
funny Andy. I don't know if that made it on
the air, but thank you. There you go, Andy the
comic book guy hanging out. Let's say hello, who's next
year Edie Meanie, Miney Moe. Well, let's say hello to
Dad Gummet. What better fun to have on a Thanksgiving
morning than Dad Gummet. Hello, Dad gummt In Arkansas, big.

Then Biden and Satan, you're you got all right? Well

It's not political radio. By the way, are you eating?
Is it true? Shade just told me that you're eating
roadkill today? Is that true? Is that your Thanksgiving?
Speaker 5 (23:41):
Then?
Speaker 1 (23:41):
A roadkill right now?
Speaker 2 (23:43):
Picked up me a big old possum. I'm gonna take.
Speaker 1 (23:53):
Some people go to Walmart to buy a turkey. Our
our friend Dad Gumt just drives around the backwoods of
Arkansas looking for roadkill. He's like, I got thrilling it
up on his engine right now. We're talking.
Speaker 2 (24:07):
Possum. It's crazy. You can't.
Speaker 1 (24:11):
What about raccoon? Can you eat raccoon? Can you Let's
go through all the animals you could possibly eat and
see see what's good and what's not good. I gotta go,
thank you, all right, leave me, leave me alone. So
what about honey badger? Could you eat a honey badger?
I don't know? Oh, man alive?
Speaker 5 (24:33):
All right?
Speaker 1 (24:33):
Is the Ben Mallard Show.
Speaker 11 (24:35):
As we continue on here and for the final time
for me on this Thanksgiving, let's get you caught up
on everything going on with a man who.
Speaker 1 (24:48):
Is stuck in yesterday. I've seen horse and buggy as
a possibility for your nickname antiquated met night. Do you
even know what that means?
Speaker 3 (24:58):
Mednight Night? I've never heard that term.
Speaker 1 (25:02):
The men Knights live in Pennsylvania and.
Speaker 3 (25:04):
Ohio or men in Knights.
Speaker 1 (25:06):
Yeah, yeah, we're the ones that don't believe in technology.
They're stuck in the past. Aish no it's it's not
like Amish. It's different. It's a different branch, like they're.
Speaker 3 (25:16):
The same tree kind of idea.
Speaker 1 (25:18):
Though, notice that is incorrect. Men knights will be offended
if you call them amish, and amish people will be
offended if you say their men night.
Speaker 3 (25:24):
All right.
Speaker 1 (25:25):
Of course I might be talking on my ass. I
don't know, but I believe that to be true.
Speaker 6 (25:28):
Thankfully, it's unlikely they're listening, since I don't think they
have radios or believed.
Speaker 1 (25:32):
No, no, we are allowed to rip the hearing impaired and
the people that men knights that don't listen to radio.
Speaker 3 (25:37):
There we go.
Speaker 1 (25:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (25:39):
Anyway, we did have a full slate of NBA action
on Wednesday night, a big battle out East between the
Bucks and the Celtics, with Boston coming out one nineteen
one sixteen to move to twelve and three on the season.
They're perfect at home, still six and oh at TD Garden.
Jalen Brown with twenty six points and eight assists. Timberwolves
over the seventy six is one twelve to ninety nine minutes.
(26:00):
Soda is now eleven and three on the season. Some
late scores out West, Lakers clawed themselves back from down
twenty and even took the lead with a minute to go.
But then Kyrie Irving just putting.
Speaker 1 (26:13):
Dad as a Laker fanboy, I mean, Mike, I mean
when I say the Dallas Mavericks, Kyrie Irving the lead,
Uncle Drew and barely get out. You know, he's kept
his nose clean for a little bit, Kyrie. I'm waiting
racist or anything. I don't. I mean, wow, pretty impressive.
Speaker 3 (26:29):
I mean, I'm surprised every sign him at all. But uh,
I'm just.
Speaker 1 (26:33):
How many how many you know, for people to have out,
you know, drinking problems, drug pubs, Like how many days
you've been sober? For Kyrie, it's how many? How many
days have you've not done something to piss people off?
Speaker 6 (26:41):
Right?
Speaker 1 (26:41):
And I think he's all right. I think he's going okay.
Speaker 6 (26:43):
Yeah, I'm just curious to know which team implodes first,
the Clippers of the Mavericks.
Speaker 1 (26:48):
James Kyrie is involved in this? Your fanboy is? I
mean both are fanboy internal attackular fashion boy internal.
Speaker 3 (26:55):
That's actually a very objective take, right there?
Speaker 1 (26:58):
Are we doing another twenty minute? Yes, it's just the
game burg address yet again? Is that what we're doing?
Here four score and I know, I know. Anyway, it's
a you know what you should do. You should become
like a like a preacher doing a sermon, is what
you have.
Speaker 6 (27:11):
To be, like a teleg Yeah, television, national television, preaching
on every Sunday morning on every.
Speaker 1 (27:19):
People with the wheelchairs, and all of a sudden you
hit them on the shoulder and they can stand up
and work. Yes, yeah, that's realistic. That happened. Sure, why not?
Speaker 3 (27:25):
Faith healer? Is that what they call those? I don't know.
Speaker 1 (27:29):
Back in the old Country we call them con men?
But yeah, you know, whatever works.
Speaker 6 (27:32):
For I'm trying to be very uh let's just say
uh politically correct in regards to saying that.
Speaker 3 (27:39):
So anyway, Oh you're.
Speaker 1 (27:41):
Worried, Samuel, get upset? Yeah, people get upset about everything.
Who cares you? Chill out, go read a book. No
one's listening anyway, It's fine, exactly. I mean what time
it is. It's it's five thirty in the morning on Thanksgiving.
Speaker 3 (27:56):
Hey, gotta get up and get that turkey ready early,
don't I mean.
Speaker 1 (28:00):
Put the turkey in the night before, and is making
mashed potatoes right now?
Speaker 8 (28:04):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (28:05):
Aink it there? Does he know what he's putting in
those different thcause he's got a gift he does.
Speaker 3 (28:12):
We love him anyway.
Speaker 6 (28:13):
Moving on Clippers over the Spurs one oh nine, one
oh two, with Greg Popovitch grabbing the microphone and flooring
his fans to not boot Kawhi Leonard saying, this is
not who we are.
Speaker 1 (28:24):
I said there, don't be classless, but the Spurs fans
are classless. They are and so is Popovich.
Speaker 6 (28:29):
Boot him even louder after that, and Kawhi Leonard responded
with twenty six points as the Clippers have now won
three games in a row after a five game losing streak.
Speaker 1 (28:39):
What a hot detrot team. The Clips are, man, they
are sexy on the.
Speaker 6 (28:43):
Catwalk, still waiting for that train wreck to happen in
spectacular fashion later this season.
Speaker 3 (28:49):
Thunder Beat the not negative. I'm actually I take a
lot of joy in that.
Speaker 1 (28:53):
You're right? Is this still going on?
Speaker 3 (28:57):
Oay?
Speaker 1 (28:58):
Is this thing still going on? Shay? Ninety seconds? Man, No,
We're way past ninety seconds.
Speaker 6 (29:02):
I mean I talked has probably been ninety seconds with
interrupting me in long eats.
Speaker 1 (29:08):
What is the name? What is the name of the show,
The Ben Mawer Show. Okay, and you have a problem
with with that person talking.
Speaker 6 (29:15):
Well, if you want me to go only ninety seconds,
then the less you talk, the quicker it can go.
Speaker 1 (29:19):
Really, how about you don't pause every ten minutes? How
about that I don't pause.
Speaker 3 (29:23):
You interrupt and then I respond and I have.
Speaker 1 (29:26):
To catch up your work. It's like, you know, I'm like,
I'm much a Corman.
Speaker 3 (29:30):
I'm the Corman.
Speaker 5 (29:32):
I'm going to Norman.
Speaker 1 (29:33):
And I got a shoddy carpenter, okay. And I don't
want the I don't want the city to come and
inspect the shoddy work. Okay. And I got to clean
up the shoddy work.
Speaker 3 (29:43):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 1 (29:43):
And it's not easy to be the foreman on the
I'm on a construction crow, is what I am doing
here and now doing heavy lifting. We're talking about overpaid
athletes and.
Speaker 3 (29:51):
Now we're giving plus in. So that's that's the uh,
that's what comes.
Speaker 1 (29:56):
This is still going, yes, Mark, This is still going Mark.

Anyway forever Thanksgiving football games. The Packers have ruled out
Aaron Jones. He will not play today against the Lions,
Pete Carroll saying though tonight Gino Smith should take the
field against the forty nine Ers after he missed most
of the fourth quarter against the Rams last Sunday with
a shoulder injury.
Speaker 1 (30:18):
Back to you, big man, all right, hell Heloijah, Hell Helojah.
Are we good on this mark? Do I need to
promote insurance? I think we're good on that. Yes, good.
But he's debating. Oh, he says we're good, not that
I don't love, not that I don't love our our
friends do insurance. Now, David is the fry Daddy, and
he is in Pennsylvania, and he knows all about the
(30:39):
men Knights and the Amish. She says, we should be
living like these people in the past. The fry Daddy says.
He says technology is destroying the human race. Whooh, that's deep.
I don't think that's destroying it. To you, well, I
mean I think he likes radio, I guess, but he
doesn't like any of the new so he doesn't like

their parents hated the crap that they liked, swearing emails
and stuff like that. Well, back then you had to
swear and like that. You had to write it out
with your cursive writing or typewriter or something. They don't
even teach that in school anymore. I know I learned
how to cursive write and what typewriting you should you
should need because I didn't. I did not learn that.
But I learned cursive in fourth grade. Yeah, I learned.
(31:45):

do it a lot. And now you don't even have
to watch people even know have to son their name.
