Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello and welcome. It's our dber far and oh it
hurts so good.

Speaker 2 (00:07):
Jalen Hurts. Jalen Hurts says, ninety five percent of the
Eagles offense is brand spankin new they put it in
this offseason. Are you surprised by this? Is this newsworthy? Also,
where are you at on Lamar Jackson who compared Fox
Sports commentator Nick Wright to a monkey with a massive

(00:27):
nose because Nick Wright had the hutzba to not rank
Lamar Jackson as a top five quarterback. And what are
your thoughts on NFL players being told not to wear
green in Brazil? It's actually happening, even though the Eagles
and Packers are going to play in Brazil. We'll get
to all that and more right now, have a great weekend.

(00:48):
Remember the fifth hour podcast available for you today tomorrow Sunday.
All new podcasts all weekend long on that And here
we go, hour number four. It hurts, It hurts so good,
unless it doesn't. Well come in the beginning of another.

Speaker 1 (01:09):
Hour of the Ben Malor Show. We are in the
air ywhere that's right.

Speaker 2 (01:19):
We are hanging out here Polka pals having an unforgettable
night and now morning coast to coast, border, the border
and beyond on the mast and show stoppingly powerful microphones
of fsre ammating live from the piano, the dueling piano

(01:42):
audio bar as we are broadcasting live for the tire
rak dot com studios.

Speaker 1 (01:46):
Tyrac dot com will help you get there.

Speaker 2 (01:48):

as our friend Spaccoli got donuts when he came to
the studio, and then I met him at the mallor
meet and greet we did in South Carolina a couple
weeks back. Tire rack dot com The Way Tire Buying

(02:09):
Show be headline from the NFL. We'll get back to
the finals later. Not much of a talker. The Celtics
came out like Gangbusters. The team from Texas was curb
stopped in the first quarter and yah, it was pretty
much it. The Mavericks got within eight, okay, and then

(02:31):
the Celtics went on an eleven nothing run and so
they won the game.

Speaker 1 (02:34):
They just had to play keep away.

Speaker 2 (02:35):
They played keep away for the rest of the game,
and so Boston now three wins away from the title
and We've been overwhelmed with Mavrec fans over the last
week or so, and I don't think we took a
call from a single Maverick fan.

Speaker 1 (02:52):
Maybe maybe one, maybe one all night but early this
hour is from the NFL.

Speaker 2 (02:56):
Why I am contractually obligated to provide content at least
once a night. So things bubbling up in Philadelphia. The
winds of change are howling in the city of brother
of Love. No, if you did not hear, and maybe not,
maybe you're not paying attention because you're like, I don't

(03:16):
care about football. I don't have to worry about football
until September when the season begins.

Speaker 1 (03:19):
All right, so listen.

Speaker 2 (03:21):
Jalen Hurts has told the Fourth Estate in the Delaware
Valley that the Eagles have changed ninety five percent of
their playbook this offseason. Now, Philly was in the Super
Bowl and actually had the lead midway through the game
against Kansas City in the Valley of the Sun two

(03:44):
years ago. They made the playoffs this season, only to
lose in the first playoff game they appeared. But they
made it, and now they're changing almost everything on the menu, all.

Speaker 1 (04:00):
Of it except five percent.

Speaker 2 (04:02):
Now, Hurts put a positive spin on the situation as
you would expect a player who's making that kind of
money to do, saying the process has been fun to
learn the new playbook, So let us discuss. That's what
I want to talk with you about. I'm curious about
this one. So Jalen Hurt says, ninety five percent of
the Eagles offense is brand spankin.

Speaker 1 (04:23):
New Are you surprised by this? Are you surprised by this?

Speaker 2 (04:28):
So I've got John Travolta nerve damage and snooze, alarm
and tongues will be wagging when we combine all these
things together. That's what we're gonna do right now. So
to lead off here, I am shaking my head. No,
I'm shaking my head. No, No, what did you think

(04:50):
What's going to happen in Philadelphia?

Speaker 1 (04:52):
Let's look at the scenario here. Okay, let's look at
the scenario.

Speaker 2 (04:55):
The trapdoor opened up and the entire Eagle roster dropped
into a pit.

Speaker 1 (05:03):
Of hungry crocodiles. Okay, not hungry hippos, hungry crocodiles. And
they had the taste of blead.

Speaker 2 (05:13):
And the Eagles sucked at a time you cannot suck,
kind of like the Dallas Mavericks in the NBA Finals game.

Speaker 1 (05:20):
They sucked at a time you cannot suck. This is a.

Speaker 2 (05:23):
John Travolta classic, the movie Grease or Go the Squeaky
Wheel Cats the Grease. The Eagles offense was inefficient. They
were ineffective. They underachieved, and the Eagles blew out their
offensive coordinator and they brought.

Speaker 1 (05:39):
In Kellen Moore. Hello, Kellen Moore, you play to win
the game.

Speaker 3 (05:45):
Now.

Speaker 2 (05:45):
At one point Kellen Moore was boy wonder you remember that.
I remember that with the Dallas Cowboys and that cowboy
marketing machine where they were pumping him up.

Speaker 1 (05:54):
This guy's a mensa. My god, he's not a meat had.
This guy's at jayus kell More with the Cowboys. Then
he went to the Chargers.

Speaker 2 (06:04):
He had a falling out, went to the Chargers, and
that thing went upside down. He lasted one year, and
now he's in Philadelphia and he was hired to reinvent
the Eagle offense, to reimagine what they can be. We
assume the five percent that they kept was the tushy pushy, right,

(06:24):
the tush push and they got rid of everything else.
If I was being hired in Philadelphia, that's what I
would do.

Speaker 1 (06:29):
It's like, all right, we're going to keep.

Speaker 2 (06:30):
The brotherly shove, tush, push all that, but everything else.

Speaker 1 (06:35):
Gone, and who knows if that's even gonna work.

Speaker 3 (06:37):
Right.

Speaker 2 (06:37):
He was a fool proof play But the guy that
was responsible for it in the middle of the Eagles
offensive line is now a podcaster because you know he's
on TV. Also because his brother's hanging out with a
famous rockstar. I don't want to upset the Swifties, so
I won't say her name. But really, when you when
you think about it, you pond why do you even
ponder this story? When I ponder the story about the

(06:59):
Eagles change their playbook, this is a referendum on Jalen Hurts.
It is an indictment of Jalen Hurts. Why is it
an indictment of Jalen Hurts. I'll tell you the Eagles
are making this move to try to salvage their investment.

Speaker 4 (07:13):
Now.

Speaker 1 (07:13):
I don't want to go full Jerome.

Speaker 2 (07:15):
And Charleston and all that, because this guy's been calling
up the last couple of weeks. That guy, Jalen Hurts
is Tim Tebow. He's not that bad. He's not great, though,
and certainly he hasn't performed like a guy who's one
hundred and seventy nine million dollar quarterback, which is what
he got paid and guaranteed money on hundred and seventy nine.

Speaker 1 (07:32):
Million so far.

Speaker 2 (07:34):
It's an example of a guy who got paid and
the team got played. Jalen Hurts for reference, just to
illustrate my point, Jalen Hurts was statistically worse than Gino
Smith last season from Seattle, and only slightly better than

(07:54):
Joe Flacco who was driving his lawnmower and he got
a call from the Browns, Hey, how would you like
to play quarterback in Cleveland?

Speaker 1 (08:03):
And Gino Smith you know he's a stiff.

Speaker 2 (08:06):
Jalen Hurts was was worse than Gino Smith and only
slightly better than Joe Flack.

Speaker 1 (08:13):
All right. Furthermore, we now pivot to Boltt Moore.

Speaker 2 (08:16):
We go where the seafood is fresh and the football
team not so much in the playoffs. That is where
that is where you will find Lamar Jackson, who made
headlines on the social networks by comparing Fox Sports.

Speaker 1 (08:31):
Gas bag Nick Right Nick Right to a.

Speaker 2 (08:34):
Monkey with a massive nose for not ranking him as
a top five quarterback on some fugazy list.

Speaker 1 (08:44):
Nick Wright is.

Speaker 2 (08:45):
The see I don't do this here, I don't. Nick
Wright loves list and people react to list. People go crazy.
Lamark Jackson got upset over a list. So the question here,
where are you at on this right? We asked the
question where you add on Lamar Jackson's reaction to not
being ranked as a top five quarterback. Clearly he thinks

(09:08):
this is hillatious and this is the worst of the worst.
On the surface, you would say, well, this is just
playful fun. It's just playful fun. It's Lamar was goofing around.
He was in the matrix. That's what you do in
the matrix. When in social media you act like our
friends in Australia at bloody rue, you just become a

(09:28):
bloody rue.

Speaker 1 (09:29):
But upon further review, we went under the hood. Upon
further review, nerve damage. As the great Sigmund.

Speaker 2 (09:38):
Freud suggested before I was around, there is a grain
of truth in every joke. So nick Wright touched a nerve.
This is a major feather in the cap for nick Wright.
That his dopey list his I think he spends all
of his time coming up with this, His dopey list
triggered a multi time MVP quarterback, right, And it's actually

(10:05):
not that outragency would touch a nerve because the reason
it would touch a nerve is because he was accurate.
I didn't see it because I don't really watch Nick show,
But from what I was told, he didn't put Lamar
Jackson on there because of Lamar's performance in the playoffs. Well, okay,
what happens to the player. Lamar gets cooked in the postseason.
He's very easy to defend in big games. He doesn't

(10:26):
play well in big games. He does during the regular season,
but in the playoffs not so much.

Speaker 1 (10:32):
So there's really no lives detected, all.

Speaker 2 (10:34):
Right, last thing, we have a follow up follow up
Headline Park Avenue, NFL headquarters. That is where the news
has made its way out of that building and bounced
around NFL locker rooms. Green Bay Packer running back Josh Jacobs,
a former Raider. Josh Jacobs, confirmed that the NFL has

(10:57):
told the players that they are not allowed to wear
green to their Week one game against the Philadelphia Eagles
in San Paulo, Brazil. Now, why is that? If you
miss this, we talked about it in a previous episode
of the show. There is a rivalry between a couple
of soccer teams as we call it here in America.

(11:18):
In other countries they call it footy or footboard or
foot bowl, but we called soccer. So there's a rivalry
and it got so bad like people were beat up.

Speaker 1 (11:28):
I think some people died.

Speaker 2 (11:30):
And so the stadium that the NFL has repurposed for
their product, which is normally a soccer stadium, they have
outlawed anyone from wearing the color green because that is
the color of the other team that the people have
a beef with, a beef with and get they get triggered.

Speaker 1 (11:49):
They get triggered when they see the color green. So
it's been outlawed.

Speaker 2 (11:52):
It's for boten, can't have it because of soccer hoodlums
from rival teams.

Speaker 1 (11:57):
So what are your.

Speaker 2 (11:57):
Thoughts on NFL players being told they can't.

Speaker 1 (12:00):
Wear green in Brazil?

Speaker 2 (12:03):
In Brazil for the Eagle Packer game to kick off
Week one, I think.

Speaker 1 (12:07):
That game is on Friday. I believe I think it's
on Friday. So my reaction is, who goofed? I've got
to know.

Speaker 2 (12:13):
I want to know names the NFL a multi billion
dollar cog in the industrial complex of sports, big sporting
who goofed the NFL clearly hit the snooze button. And
I love this story so much that with the Interweb
and all of the technology that we have, there's still

(12:34):
a bunch of a bunch of dumbasses at the NFL, right,
a bunch of donkeys over there. So you're telling me
that you picked a venue in Brazil where it is
easily available on the Internet to look up the rules
of engagement for that stadium, a place that has an

(12:55):
issue with the color green. You had a ninety percent
chance of getting this right, and you got it one
hundred percent wrong.

Speaker 1 (13:05):
Do you realize if you look.

Speaker 2 (13:07):
Around the NFL, ninety point six percent of NFL teams
do not have green as a primary color.

Speaker 1 (13:15):
Ninety point six percent.

Speaker 2 (13:16):
Yet the NFL hierarchy decided these mensas at the NFL,
let's pick two of the three teams in the entire
sport where they have green primary jerseys, and we'll play there.

Speaker 1 (13:33):
Why not?

Speaker 5 (13:34):
Right?

Speaker 1 (13:34):
Why not? Now?

Speaker 2 (13:39):
Clearly the NFL was not thinking, they were thinking about
all the other green they were going to get from
the people of Brazil to play this game in that country.
So how does this work for the fans, And how
does it work for the helmets because you think about
the Eagles, right, they've got green help none of the

(14:00):
packers have mostly yellow helmets, but they've got a lot
of green on there as well. So are they not
allowed to wear their helmets? Are they gonna wear leather
helmets instead? Are they gonna go back to that? And
what about I assume thousands of people from America or
ex pats that live in Brazil who are fans of
the team. But let's say you've got people traveling from

(14:20):
I don't know, Appleton, Wisconsin or somewhere in the Delaware
Valley or somewhere along those side, and they want to
visit Brazil. They want to get in touch with the
local culture and all that, and they want to wear
their team gear. You can't wear your team gear. It's
almost like the NFL didn't do any due diligence.

Speaker 1 (14:41):
And I love it. I love it. I love it,
I love it. I love it.

Speaker 2 (14:44):
Are they gonna have them wear special Brazilian uniforms where
they were blue instead of their green? I wouldn't put
it past the NFL. It is the Ben Mallard Show.

Angry your doddy off?

Speaker 3 (17:43):
There?

Speaker 1 (17:43):
You get him off here. Let's go to Jerome and Charleston.

Speaker 3 (17:45):
Hello, Jerome, welcome, Hey, hey Ben, you know what the
Mavericks played? Like those basketball shoes? Kyrie uvering wares and
there right says you know what, Kyrie, this is a
good look for you. Why don't you wear HEA's in
the playoffs? Don't something you put on your little five
year old girl? Okay, golt and players, alloway, you have.

Speaker 1 (18:10):
An issue with Kyrie Irving's footwear? Are you? Are you
a model? Are you like an expert on clothing? What
is it?

Speaker 3 (18:18):
Look? I'm not an expert on clothing because hey man,
I bought the cheapest clothes I can buy. All right,
but there ain't nowhere in the hell draw me wrong?
Wear no sussy balls shoes, basketball shoes passing around like
taker bell on near So you you.

Speaker 2 (18:35):
Think that is there a direct correlation between Kyrie Irving
who sucked. I know many pundits were very upset. He
was the iceman. He was ice cold for the team
from Dallas there and I loved every second of it.
And you the footwear is responsible for that's well.

Speaker 3 (18:54):
No, no, but I just noticed that. But I'm ridging.
Ain't the way in the wall I'm wearing that?

Speaker 2 (18:59):
Look like, by the way, now, Jerome before you, Jerome Hall,
I may say, by the way, but didn't you say
that the Mavericks there, they were were going to get
screwed over by the officials. Did you think they got
screwed over by the officials? Because I didn't think they
got screwed over by the officials.

Speaker 3 (19:14):
They screwed each other over because they looked like crap.
If they won the game in this series, you know what,
if they won the game in this series, there needs
to be an FBI investigation. They're investigating some problems SUPERD
documents got down there Florida. By the way, I worked
with classified documents for eight years in the military, so

(19:34):
I know how to store stuff like that.

Speaker 2 (19:37):
Look, yeah, yeah, isn't everything in government classified?

Speaker 1 (19:41):
I mean this is classic. This is classic.

Speaker 2 (19:44):
Yeah, there's the amount of classified documents is insane.

Speaker 1 (19:47):
It's it's ridiculous.

Speaker 3 (19:48):
And yes, what if they won a game? There needs
to be an FBI investigation of the NBA.

Speaker 2 (19:55):
Okay, you're old, Jerome, you're over Jerome, you're over Yeah, listen, wrong,
the Celtics should win.

Speaker 1 (20:01):
They had the Mavericks didn't play well. They had a
bad game. Fine, I get.

Speaker 3 (20:04):
That, by the way, against them, against the Mavericks. By
the way, Bet McAfee, no talents, bum put your FPN.
He makes sevent team million a year. Make a year, man,
it's in that.

Speaker 1 (20:23):
It's in that ballpark, you know, depending on how big
of depending how I mean, it's got to be a
big ballpark.

Speaker 2 (20:30):
It's gotta be a it's got to be a big ballpark.

Speaker 1 (20:35):
Right, thank you.

Speaker 2 (20:39):
He's so upset with McAfee and he calls me to
complain about him. I mean, he's like, okay, and he
goes from zero to eighty five miles an hour, just
like that. Let's say hello to Oh, we've got legends
legends on the show.

Speaker 1 (20:56):
Let's say hello to Marcel in Brooklyn.

Speaker 2 (20:59):
Hello, Rsel, Happy Friday, Ben and the guys how was
newby night? Oh yeah, yeah, the other night it was great.
I was all choked up there was. It was wonderful. Yeah.

Speaker 5 (21:11):
Oh well, get back to the legends. Hoh way, shall
we let me.

Speaker 2 (21:16):
Let me let me measure this thoughiness Jerome brought up
all of a sudden, he doesn't think that the Mavericks
are going to win a game because they played poorly
in Game one, and I picked the Celtics to win.

Speaker 1 (21:27):
But the line is out for the game on Sunday,
It's been out for a few hours, and.

Speaker 2 (21:33):
The Boston Celtics opened up a seven and a half
point favorite in Game two Sunday night at the Garden
there over Dallas. It is already down to seven that even, Yes,
that is because of the wise guys, the professionals, the.

Speaker 1 (21:54):
There's a bit of it is now.

Speaker 2 (21:55):
You remember the other day, everyone in their their mother
was betting on the man Evericks in Game one and
that didn't work out so well. The public is now
betting more on the Celtics. That's the the gambler's fallacy.
Do you know what the gamblers fallacy is, Marcel.

Speaker 5 (22:12):
The gambler's policy. That's the problem. That is the problem.

Speaker 1 (22:17):
No fallacy, the gambler's fallacy.

Speaker 5 (22:19):
Oh, the gamblers policy.

Speaker 1 (22:21):
Huh yeah, what do you think that is?

Speaker 5 (22:24):
That is a crime, a true, true crime for the
gambler's fallacy.

Speaker 1 (22:29):
Okay, all right.

Speaker 2 (22:30):
It's either that or someone who thinks just because they
watched the team win, they're never going to lose again
and they bet all the money on that team.

Speaker 5 (22:38):
There, sir.

Speaker 8 (22:39):
No, yeah, okay, No, gambling is wrong, isn't it.

Speaker 5 (22:43):
Marcel, Eddie, gambling is definitely illegal.

Speaker 2 (22:49):
Yeah, okay, all right, Marcel, can you hold on a second.

Speaker 1 (22:52):
Marcel. Let's get over to Eddie right now.

Speaker 2 (22:54):
And Marcel, you you want those WNBA scores? Yes, Marcia's
shaking his head, Yes, Marcell, let's get over there.

Speaker 1 (23:02):
Liberty fan, giant fan, Eddie.

Speaker 2 (23:04):
I remember before Eddie was woke years ago and now
he's sold. You remember that too Big Broadcasting Eddie Garcia
just a shill for the company.

Yeah, why does the company care?

Speaker 9 (23:13):

Speaker 1 (24:03):
But depends how cheap the franchise is.

Speaker 2 (24:06):

anytime you say.

Speaker 8 (29:19):
The word what change your mind.

Speaker 10 (29:21):
Well. I was looking when I you know, when I
was prepping for Coop Scoop and Entertainment. I was looking
at the reviews for this and the critics are kind
of kind of ho hum on it. They give it
like a sixty six percent, but the audience score is
at ninety eight percent. What now, I know.

Speaker 1 (29:41):
More people that reviewed it. I don't know.

Speaker 10 (29:45):
I read some of the reviews and the early you know,
the early reaction is is pretty good. So I don't know,
I might have to check it out if there's nothing
else going on in the weekend. Uh, but other than
Bad Boys Ride or Yeah, we also have a new
M Night Shyamalan movie.

Speaker 1 (30:05):

becomes trapped alongside three strangers that are watched and stalked
by mysterious creatures in the night. Oh it starts Dakota Fanning.

I believe.

Speaker 9 (30:40):

Speaker 10 (30:41):
The reviews on this are not good, not good at all,
twenty two percent from the critic.

he can obviously hit a home run with number one,
but I have you.

Know this city, When you get a name in Hollywood,
you're pretty well.

Speaker 8 (30:54):
But he's made a lot of pretty bad movies.

Speaker 10 (30:56):
He hit like he hit like three home runs, that's
all you got to do at the beginning of his career,
and then since then it's kind of been okay, kind
of been strikeouts.

Speaker 1 (31:07):
Coop can't knock him because he wants him to make
Liar Liar too. He's waiting for that.

Speaker 10 (31:11):
Oh yeah, the Big the Horror, the Horror Movie edition
of of.

Speaker 1 (31:16):
That would be an interesting twist on who whatever it
takes to have the movie made.

Speaker 10 (31:20):
That's true, that's true, that's true. But no, I mean
the the sixth Sense, the Village and signs Yes, signs.
