The Mallard Meet and Greet first one of twenty twenty six, Newport, Kentucky,
(00:43):
April twenty fifth, two to five at Strong's Brickoven Pizzeria.
Well here in hour number four GM, Howie Roseman said
the Eagles go directly to the player if they have
an issue with said player, like Jalen Hurtz. How believable
is this story? In Stephen Jones, the son of Jerry says,
(01:06):
nobody has tried to trade for Cowboys franchise wide receiver
George Pickens. How does this echo through the NFL? And
also why did this Dexter Laurence story get leaked by
the Giants that they're at impass and which is likely
leading up to a trade before the draft. We'll go
there as well. All of it's coming your way right
(01:27):
now here we go. It's our number four. Have a
wonderful Wednesday. It hurts so bad. Why welcome in the
beginning of another hour of the Ben Mallor Show. We
(01:49):
are in the air ev rewhere as you and I
side by side, here flying the friendly audio skies, as
we have life changing sports takes unless we don't, unless
we don't coast to coast, border the border and beyond
(02:09):
on the mast and blow tortially powerful microphones of fs
are ammunating live from the straw as we grasp at
straws from the amazing world famous Fox Sports Radio Stewis.
We are guaranteed human, of course, and the one and
(02:31):
only Mark, the full name Guy reminds us this hour
made possible by ty Iraq. For over forty years, ty
Iraq has been helping customers like JJ in Renton and

Moving man Mark says, hey, it's the way tire buying
should be, which is a very very important thing. And
so then I got this message and I said, well,
I don't know what's that name there? And I said, well,
(03:12):
that's Rick and Maryland. Well why is Rick reaching out
to me? Because you wanted to say morning time? And

me sit up here properly here good posture is very important.
I don't want to get in trouble with Matt Patricia.
So all right, our lead this hour from Philadelphia. We
(03:55):
start out in the City of Brotherly Love in Philadelphia
with the GM Howie Roseman. Lead up to next week's
draft was asked mostly very boring questions about who the
Eagles are going to pick in the draft. However, there
were a handful of questions that were not deemed bing.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
Now.
Speaker 1 (04:14):
One of them was about Jalen Hurts and his current
situation with the franchise. As you might remember, recently, there
was a story some call it a hatch of job,
other tell others say it was an intentional story that
was planted by the team, and it referenced the rocky
(04:35):
road that Hurts has head that he's.
Speaker 3 (04:39):
Not not improving, things are stuck in a holding pattern,
and the yabbut crowd says yeah but yeah, but yeah,
but he won the Super Bowl, Yeah but yeah, but yeah, yeah, okay,
the Yabbot rabbit.
Speaker 1 (04:52):
And while that is true, and the Eagles have held
a bunch of games, there was still a story that
painted the picture of a let's call it a murky
murky relationship. The water, very cloudy, very cloudy there. So
if you didn't hear what Howie Roseman had to say,
perhaps not regarding Jalen Hurts, he said, quote, if we
(05:14):
have an issue with any of our players. He was
regarding he was asked about the story, which unloaded on Hurts,
especially being uncoachable and unwilling to change his ways, very stubborn.
He said, when we have an issue with the player,
we talked to them directly, and he named the coach,
he named the owner of the whole thing, and went
on and on. He said, we're not hiding behind anything.
(05:36):
We talked to our players directly. I think that it's unfair,
he said of the story. So it's good, Jomy all point.
Let us discuss the question. Is this so the GM
Howie Roseman saying, the Eagles go directly to the player
if they have an issue with said player, like quarterback
Jalen Hurts. How believable is this story? So I've got
(06:02):
DC Comics, Vacuum Sealed, and turtles, and we will combine
all of these things together and we're gonna give you
a mile high stack of gobba goool. We're gonna pile
up the gobba goool. And then if you want a
(06:22):
little extra, we've got some babaganosh. We'll give you that,
all right. So to lead off here, I think of
this like, if you know, dating, I don't have Tinder
is still the thing I know is years ago, and
so it's about as believable that the you know, they
call you back, or I'll text you back after a
(06:44):
bad date. You know, you get that I'll get back
to Yeah, yeah, I sure you will. And two things
can be true at the same time. The Eagles can,
as Howie Roseman said, if they have a problem, they
go directly to the player. And if they have a
problem and they go to the player and I don't know,
it doesn't get resolved. They could also go to some
(07:05):
useful idiot, a stool pigeon in the media. That happens
all the time, right, it happens all the time. So
on this side of the microphone, the side of the
microphone I'm on in the magic radio box, Howie Roseman's
denial to me, it sounds like it's confirmation that the
team did use the media to send the message shame
(07:29):
and blame, shame and blame Philadelphia style. It's the classic
public accountability. Nudge, not a bump, not a bumpety bump,
a nudge, just a little nudge, that's all, Just a
little nudge. You send a message to Jalen Hurtz through
the media, because whether he sees it or not, you
know that his friends and family will see it and
(07:52):
they'll bring it up to them. And then you have
to act shocked, gobsmacked when people connect the dots. Now,
if the Eagles truly only hired these things, or only
took care of these things, handled these things, said the
man in the in the in the microphone room, if
they handle these things only internally, then it doesn't get out.
(08:15):
It stays in the vault, and it's locked in the vault.
What's in the vault we don't know because it's locked.
We can't get in, and we're not we don't have
a key to the vault. We're not allowed. We're just outsiders.
We're interlopers, is what we are. And so that's the case,
right So that you say, well it would just stay there,
it didn't, And that is a dead, dead dear what
(08:35):
it is. It's a dead giveaway. This was not a leak.
It was a trail of cookie crumbs, which led to
a dusty old DC comic and this is going full
DC comics. Howie Roseman thinks he's the invisible kid, not
just unseen, but unheard and untouchable, like the whispers that
(09:00):
can't be traced back to the source. Now spoiler alert again,
everyone hears everything. Everyone hears it translation. The Eagles like
Jalden Hurts.
Speaker 2 (09:08):
They do.
Speaker 1 (09:09):
I don't think they hate Jailor Hursts. They like Jalalen Hurts.
They just assumed the position that he was going to
get better than he is. They believe he's plateaued, and
they think the reason he's plateaued is because he will
not accept their brilliant coaching and he's the coach killer.
That's why they keep changing offensive coordinators year after year
and year. So they like him. They don't fully trust
(09:29):
Jalen Hurts. Is what the person's trying to say. Now,
will it work? Do you think it's gonna work this
motivation or will it be seen as resentment by the player?
Time to bring back Benny versus the penny see will
it be a situation where it's resented or will it
be used as motivation? Well, very similar to what we've
(09:53):
seen from guys like Sean Payton, Bill Belichick back in
the day, or you have some buddies in the media,
you leaked the story out and all that stuff. The
real question did they underestimate how obvious in Philadelphia this looks?
Or did they want this to be obvious? Did they
want this thing to be obviously out there? Because it's
pretty obviously. Anybody has paid any attention who's got an
(10:15):
IQ above forty understands what's going on now. Furthermore, speaking
of low IQ, we go to we go to the
Cowboys in Dallas where the Cowboys put the twenty seven
point two million dollars franchise tag on wide receiver George
Slim Pickens. So George Pickens is the franchise player in Dallas,
and we learned per Steven Jones, they have not received
(10:40):
a single offer. No one wants to trade for George Pickens. Nobody,
nobody wants George Pickens. And that's according to Stephen Jones. Now,
Pickens was not signed to a long term extension, so
he was given the tag. As we mentioned there, he
has not had what we understand, no dialogue to work
(11:03):
out a long term extension. This is not something the
Cowboys are doing. They've not chosen to go that direction,
so they're not anywhere close to an agreement. Normally have
to talk. That's I didn't play in the NFL or
work in the NFL. Generally I don't have contracts, and
normally there's a brief negotiation, which pretty much means we're
not giving you any more money, sign the contract, or
(11:25):
you're out. That's usually how those negotiations go. It's typically
how that goes. Now, the question Stephen Jones saying that
nobody has tried to trade for the Cowboys franchise wide
receiver George Pickens, By George, how does this echo through
(11:45):
the NFL? And how's it echo for you?
Speaker 4 (11:49):
All right?
Speaker 1 (11:49):
So for me, either Jerry Jones kid is bluffing like
a riverboat gambler, or by George George Pickens was the
football equivalent of bad news. And he's got the has
Matt label stamped on his helmet. Has Matt picked your poison?
(12:15):
So it's another episode of the seasonal show. It's not
on all year, it's only on during the during the
off season. The Cowboys traveling Circus. This is where the
drama gets cranked up, and if Pickens were a can't miss,
no brainer franchise wide receiver and he had a clean
(12:36):
rap sheet and everything was good to go on that
the phones would be melting. You know, a text here,
text there, text everywhere. They're not silence and deafening sound.
If you believe Stephen Jones. That's not a marketition. Now,
it is possible that Stephen Jones is tossing this out
there for two reasons. The first reason would be to
(12:59):
convince George Pickens that nobody else wants him, so signed
the contract. The other possibility is Steven Jones tossed this
out there to try to convince some dumb dumb executive
or owner to go try to get George Pickens so
the Cowboys could trade him, just like they traded last
year their star defensive player Micah Parsons to the Frozen Thunder.
(13:23):
So keep an eye on that. And Pickens is a
highlight reel vacuum sealed in a headache, So yeah, the
highlights are there. You're sealed with a headache, you got
a migraine, And it does actually make sense. This is
something the Cowboys got right. They rarely do anything properly,
but this is something they got right. The Cowboys going
year to year is the smart move. The Malor think
(13:48):
tank recognized this was the move, and the Cowboys have
done it. They're trying to do it. They're attempting to
do it. And so it's year to years, not at
it's more risk management. Everyone's risk adverse, adversive and and
all that. So it's it's a case where Pickens is
(14:10):
he a misunderstood artisan of the catch or a pyromaniac
arsonist for the locker room. And at this point we
do the show right now. At this point, teams see
the fireworks and they smell the smoke, and nobody's rushing
(14:31):
to say where where that? Where the matches? We need
to go find the matches. No one's doing that, all right,
Last thing, we go to Jersey. We have a status update.
Typically at the NFL Draft there are multiple quasi star
players who are relocated. Now it is anticipated that aj
(14:52):
Brown will be one of those players out of Philadelphia.
Another one hanging by the their fingernails would be Dexter Lawrence.
So we are now told the Giants and defensive tackle
Dexter Lawrence have been talking about a new big money
contract extension to keep him in New York slash New Jersey.
(15:14):
But yep, you know what that means. They have reached Impass.
They are at not ass Impass. Slightly different, slightly different
there now, the state funded NFL media Ian Rappaport tells
us the Giants have engaged with teams on a potential
trade and that is going to continue in the days
(15:37):
up until the NFL Draft, as that's where everything the
rubber meets the road. NFL Draft first round a week
from tomorrow as today obviously Wednesday, so that would mean
tomorrow would be Thursday, and then a week from today
tomorrow that's the first round of the NFL Draft. It's
amazing how that works, all right. So the question on
(15:59):
this one, why I did this Dexter Lawrence story get
leaked by the Giants? Now? Why did it get leaked?
All right? So this story, it didn't just leak. It
was painted like a yard sign during an open house.
There were signs down the block, turn here, then turn there,
(16:22):
and then go down and make a U turn and teta,
you're at the open house. The New York Giants are
shopping the narrative and it's like they're trying to stir
up some bidding. They would like you to make an offer,
whether you're an NFL team or the Winnipeg Blue Bombers
or one of these other outfits, and they want to
(16:44):
get a bidding war for Dexter Lawrence, who pretty much
picked a goose egg and a rather important start for
a defensive player last year. Now, this is negotiating one
oh one. It is. You use the media, just like
the boys with their situation with George Pickens the Giants
doing the same thing. You use this as a Times
(17:06):
Square billboard. What's on the billboard. Look, we've got this
dominant defensive tackle. Supplies are limited and he can be yours.
If a price is right, come on down. So if
you're the Chiefs.
Speaker 5 (17:22):
Or the Patriots, the Rams or the Seahawks, knock on
the door, say hey, what would the price be on
that I'd like that item?
Speaker 1 (17:33):
Well, how much are you willing to pay? I don't
know how much I'm willing to play at pay what
is the price on that item? So meanwhile, behind the curtain,
both sides are acting like turtles, and as always it's
about money, and they are the Loggerhead turtle at logger
Heads and don't kid yourself. Do not kid yourself. This
(17:57):
is about it's not about culture. I know that Dexter
Lawrence being upset with the Giants not about culture. It's
not about leadership. He hasn't even played a day for
Harball John Harbaugh, who's the new coach of the Giants.
He hadn't played a day for him. He's not even
given him a fair shake. And the reason Dexter Lawrence
is not giving him a fair shake, this is about
securing the bag. What's in the bag money, money, money,
(18:21):
a lot of money, a lot of gold bars. And
he's trying to refinance his career is what he's trying
to do. And he's not chasing a Lombardi. He's essentially
chasing compound interest is what he's chasing, Dexter Lawrence. And
so the Giants offered a contract and Lawrence gave it
(18:42):
side eye. He countered asking. I think he asked for
his extra pension and then some stock options, and he'd
like a nice vacation home for the weekend in the summer. Yeah,
he wants that beachfront property. Oh why do you want that? Well,
I can't ask for anything. Maybe they'll give it to me.

getting mollywopped at work? And how bad is it? Well,
the other night, the Baltimore Orioles, that is a baseball
(22:52):
team that have been good recently. Who knows, So the
Orioles manager Craig Albernaz took a lone mine drive right
off the face SAPA during a game against Arizona. We
have a injury update. Injury update on getting molly wopped
by a baseball? Is it true? Is it true that
(23:16):
the Orioles manager revealed how many how many fractured, slashed
broken bones he had as a result. All right, so
let's go around the room. I know the answer. No chating,
Do not chaate, Do not chaate? All right, here we go.
You can play as well as you're listening. All right, Lorena,
(23:38):
take a guess how many broken bones did the Orioles manager,
Craig Albernaz suffer when hit by a baseball in the
head against the diamondbacks. No bones, no bones were okay,
cartilage all right? Interesting, interesting way to answer the question.
(24:00):
A loop. Okay, he got hit in the head, Yes,
hit in the head. He revealed the damage to his face. Yeah,
I'm going to say you listen to our live coverage.
We've gone round robin here. Four you think he broke
four bones? All right? Reveal answers. It turns out that
(24:22):
the Orioles manager claims that he broke as do the
math on this, he says he has at least seven
fractures in his cheek area and a broken jaw, meaning
he broke eight bones.
Speaker 3 (24:37):
Eight.
Speaker 1 (24:38):
That's not how that works, Yeah, it is. Yeah, you
have four. I looked it up. You have fourteen bones
in your in your face, there are, but so he
has seven fractures he has in there are on different bones.
He said he has seven, yes, seven fractures there. You
get your nasal bones. You've got a bunch of bones.
I can't even pronounce because I don't know how to
(24:59):
say them. They're weird medical terms. But you have there's
a total of fourteen bones in your face. He's claiming
that he's got seven fractures, and then the broken jaw,
which is different. You've got the lower jaw and those
that's a single bone and then so there's two side separate.
But he said so fifty seven percent of the bones
(25:20):
he broke in his in his face. That's what he's claiming.
You think he's lying. He says he has to He
says he now has to eat only You can only
eat baby food for six weeks. Oh jeez, yeah, you
can eat mashed potato. I had a boyfriend who did
that one. I ate baby food. Did you think that
was cool?
Speaker 6 (25:35):
Well?
Speaker 1 (25:35):
He he was doing a gainer off of the bleachers
at school and he hit his job. It's like where
you do a running backflip. Okay, yeah, and he hit
his job. You always like those. You like those bad boys,
don't you learn? You like the You like the trouble makers.
Don't you like the bad boys do running backflips? Trying
to like the daredevil crowd?
Speaker 7 (25:52):
Right?
Speaker 1 (25:53):
Killed one? You like the daredevil crowd? Right? Yeah? Favorite.
My idea of being a daredevil is sitting on the
couch flipping to game the game. That's my favorite flavor
of baby food. If you had to only eat baby food,
what would your favorite flavor of baby food be I
(26:14):
would do bananas. Ah see, okay, everyone goes bananas, but
you got you got the main go it really good apple?
Come on. I used to do the jarred baby food
all the time with my daughter and we just yeah,
I would.
Speaker 3 (26:27):
I would.
Speaker 1 (26:27):
I was told by my mom and she had You know,
she's not with us anymore, so she can't fight back
on this that I like the apple cinnamon when I
was a kid, and I still like the apple cinnamon
as it had grown up. How about that I didn't change.
I was a little baby and I loved apple cinnamon
a little kid. Suppose them. Yeah, I don't know that.
I've had the pear blueberry, and I bet that's good too.
We should get some baby foods and try them. I'm good.
(26:49):
I definitely didn't like the carrots or the the pee
squash stuff. I didn't like that. That's not that's not
my thing anyway. Right. It is the Bane Madler Show.
Let's go to the phones and let's say hello to Andrea.
She's in Berkeley and she's our astrology insider. Hello Andrea,
and we also have password the word Game of the
(27:10):
Stars coming up in a few minutes. Hello, Andrea, Hello, Ben,
how are you? If I was any better, I'd be
a Met, but not a New York Met. They've now
lost seven games in a row.
Speaker 4 (27:22):
I know it's gotten really challenging, but you know, you
gotta believe lost.
Speaker 1 (27:28):
Mets fans know, well, you gotta believe the team stinks,
is what you gotta believe right now, because they get
now scored by sixteen runs in this seven game losing
most of these. This last night was close against the Dodgers,
but most of these games have not been closed.
Speaker 4 (27:42):
No, they're definitely in a tough stretch. And oh, first
thing first, the full moon, Dan is actually May first.
Speaker 1 (27:51):
No, we got some time, We got.
Speaker 4 (27:54):
Some times because she mentioned it feels like the full moon.
Speaker 1 (27:57):
Oh good, I will not be traveling. I'll be traveling
in mid April, which is far enough away from the
full moon. I do not have to worry about any
kind of cosmic problem, as you know, because we've talked
about the full moon effects happened a week before to
a weekends, right, yeah, corrects like two weeks.
Speaker 4 (28:14):
And mercury is not retrograde. And your birthday is coming up.
We got the sun and taurists coming upon okay, so
a lot to look forward to. And that said, we
have six planets and ares, So for all your listeners
out there, especially aries, know that it's a really intense time.
Edwin Diaz. I looked at his chart and he's, you know,
(28:40):
it was like unexplained. He said, something didn't quite feel right.
And what's interesting, he's March twenty sixth. Let's see nineteen
ninety four. And when you have a transit like that,
you feel, you know, Neptune is confusions like a fog
(29:00):
sended Saturn, however, been wells a skeletal system, bones, knees, teeth, joints, back.
So it's interesting to see what we'll transpire there. So
we'll keep an eye out to see what happens with him.
And I just had to with all to talk about
(29:21):
Diana Rose Tut and Mike Grabel. You know, before my
sports astrology ni's Ben I had a relationship astrology focus,
you know, like compatibility is another one of my specialty.
And this is interesting Ben, since we'll get a kick
out of his opposite to tract. Diana Rossini February eleven,
(29:47):
nineteen eighty three. She's a freedom loving aquarius, likes the
disrupt the status quo eccentric and my Rabel is a

April twenty fifth, two to five at Strong's Brickoven Pizzeria.
Well here in hour number four GM, Howie Roseman said
the Eagles go directly to the player if they have
an issue with said player, like Jalen Hurtz. How believable
is this story? In Stephen Jones, the son of Jerry says,
(01:06):
nobody has tried to trade for Cowboys franchise wide receiver
George Pickens. How does this echo through the NFL? And
also why did this Dexter Laurence story get leaked by
the Giants that they're at impass and which is likely
leading up to a trade before the draft. We'll go
there as well. All of it's coming your way right
(01:27):
now here we go. It's our number four. Have a
wonderful Wednesday. It hurts so bad. Why welcome in the
beginning of another hour of the Ben Mallor Show. We
(01:49):
are in the air ev rewhere as you and I
side by side, here flying the friendly audio skies, as
we have life changing sports takes unless we don't, unless
we don't coast to coast, border the border and beyond
(02:09):
on the mast and blow tortially powerful microphones of fs
are ammunating live from the straw as we grasp at
straws from the amazing world famous Fox Sports Radio Stewis.
We are guaranteed human, of course, and the one and
(02:31):
only Mark, the full name Guy reminds us this hour
made possible by ty Iraq. For over forty years, ty
Iraq has been helping customers like JJ in Renton and
remember that guy Danny DeVito used to call from Boston.
He quit the show. But helping those guys find the
right tires for how, what and where they drive ship
(02:52):
fast and freeback by free road hazard protection with convenient
installation options like mobile tire installation tire iraq dot com
Moving man Mark says, hey, it's the way tire buying
should be, which is a very very important thing. And
so then I got this message and I said, well,
I don't know what's that name there? And I said, well,
(03:12):
that's Rick and Maryland. Well why is Rick reaching out
to me? Because you wanted to say morning time? And
then Paul and Ottawa agreed that we need to talk

com slash disclosures. So our lead story this hour, let
me sit up here properly here good posture is very important.
I don't want to get in trouble with Matt Patricia.
So all right, our lead this hour from Philadelphia. We
(03:55):
start out in the City of Brotherly Love in Philadelphia
with the GM Howie Roseman. Lead up to next week's
draft was asked mostly very boring questions about who the
Eagles are going to pick in the draft. However, there
were a handful of questions that were not deemed bing.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
Now.
Speaker 1 (04:14):
One of them was about Jalen Hurts and his current
situation with the franchise. As you might remember, recently, there
was a story some call it a hatch of job,
other tell others say it was an intentional story that
was planted by the team, and it referenced the rocky
(04:35):
road that Hurts has head that he's.
Speaker 3 (04:39):
Not not improving, things are stuck in a holding pattern,
and the yabbut crowd says yeah but yeah, but yeah,
but he won the Super Bowl, Yeah but yeah, but yeah, yeah, okay,
the Yabbot rabbit.
Speaker 1 (04:52):
And while that is true, and the Eagles have held
a bunch of games, there was still a story that
painted the picture of a let's call it a murky
murky relationship. The water, very cloudy, very cloudy there. So
if you didn't hear what Howie Roseman had to say,
perhaps not regarding Jalen Hurts, he said, quote, if we
(05:14):
have an issue with any of our players. He was
regarding he was asked about the story, which unloaded on Hurts,
especially being uncoachable and unwilling to change his ways, very stubborn.
He said, when we have an issue with the player,
we talked to them directly, and he named the coach,
he named the owner of the whole thing, and went
on and on. He said, we're not hiding behind anything.
(05:36):
We talked to our players directly. I think that it's unfair,
he said of the story. So it's good, Jomy all point.
Let us discuss the question. Is this so the GM
Howie Roseman saying, the Eagles go directly to the player
if they have an issue with said player, like quarterback
Jalen Hurts. How believable is this story? So I've got
(06:02):
DC Comics, Vacuum Sealed, and turtles, and we will combine
all of these things together and we're gonna give you
a mile high stack of gobba goool. We're gonna pile
up the gobba goool. And then if you want a
(06:22):
little extra, we've got some babaganosh. We'll give you that,
all right. So to lead off here, I think of
this like, if you know, dating, I don't have Tinder
is still the thing I know is years ago, and
so it's about as believable that the you know, they
call you back, or I'll text you back after a
(06:44):
bad date. You know, you get that I'll get back
to Yeah, yeah, I sure you will. And two things
can be true at the same time. The Eagles can,
as Howie Roseman said, if they have a problem, they
go directly to the player. And if they have a
problem and they go to the player and I don't know,
it doesn't get resolved. They could also go to some
(07:05):
useful idiot, a stool pigeon in the media. That happens
all the time, right, it happens all the time. So
on this side of the microphone, the side of the
microphone I'm on in the magic radio box, Howie Roseman's
denial to me, it sounds like it's confirmation that the
team did use the media to send the message shame
(07:29):
and blame, shame and blame Philadelphia style. It's the classic
public accountability. Nudge, not a bump, not a bumpety bump,
a nudge, just a little nudge, that's all, Just a
little nudge. You send a message to Jalen Hurtz through
the media, because whether he sees it or not, you
know that his friends and family will see it and
(07:52):
they'll bring it up to them. And then you have
to act shocked, gobsmacked when people connect the dots. Now,
if the Eagles truly only hired these things, or only
took care of these things, handled these things, said the
man in the in the in the microphone room, if
they handle these things only internally, then it doesn't get out.
(08:15):
It stays in the vault, and it's locked in the vault.
What's in the vault we don't know because it's locked.
We can't get in, and we're not we don't have
a key to the vault. We're not allowed. We're just outsiders.
We're interlopers, is what we are. And so that's the case,
right So that you say, well it would just stay there,
it didn't, And that is a dead, dead dear what
(08:35):
it is. It's a dead giveaway. This was not a leak.
It was a trail of cookie crumbs, which led to
a dusty old DC comic and this is going full
DC comics. Howie Roseman thinks he's the invisible kid, not
just unseen, but unheard and untouchable, like the whispers that
(09:00):
can't be traced back to the source. Now spoiler alert again,
everyone hears everything. Everyone hears it translation. The Eagles like
Jalden Hurts.
Speaker 2 (09:08):
They do.
Speaker 1 (09:09):
I don't think they hate Jailor Hursts. They like Jalalen Hurts.
They just assumed the position that he was going to
get better than he is. They believe he's plateaued, and
they think the reason he's plateaued is because he will
not accept their brilliant coaching and he's the coach killer.
That's why they keep changing offensive coordinators year after year
and year. So they like him. They don't fully trust
(09:29):
Jalen Hurts. Is what the person's trying to say. Now,
will it work? Do you think it's gonna work this
motivation or will it be seen as resentment by the player?
Time to bring back Benny versus the penny see will
it be a situation where it's resented or will it
be used as motivation? Well, very similar to what we've
(09:53):
seen from guys like Sean Payton, Bill Belichick back in
the day, or you have some buddies in the media,
you leaked the story out and all that stuff. The
real question did they underestimate how obvious in Philadelphia this looks?
Or did they want this to be obvious? Did they
want this thing to be obviously out there? Because it's
pretty obviously. Anybody has paid any attention who's got an
(10:15):
IQ above forty understands what's going on now. Furthermore, speaking
of low IQ, we go to we go to the
Cowboys in Dallas where the Cowboys put the twenty seven
point two million dollars franchise tag on wide receiver George
Slim Pickens. So George Pickens is the franchise player in Dallas,
and we learned per Steven Jones, they have not received
(10:40):
a single offer. No one wants to trade for George Pickens. Nobody,
nobody wants George Pickens. And that's according to Stephen Jones. Now,
Pickens was not signed to a long term extension, so
he was given the tag. As we mentioned there, he
has not had what we understand, no dialogue to work
(11:03):
out a long term extension. This is not something the
Cowboys are doing. They've not chosen to go that direction,
so they're not anywhere close to an agreement. Normally have
to talk. That's I didn't play in the NFL or
work in the NFL. Generally I don't have contracts, and
normally there's a brief negotiation, which pretty much means we're
not giving you any more money, sign the contract, or
(11:25):
you're out. That's usually how those negotiations go. It's typically
how that goes. Now, the question Stephen Jones saying that
nobody has tried to trade for the Cowboys franchise wide
receiver George Pickens, By George, how does this echo through
(11:45):
the NFL? And how's it echo for you?
Speaker 4 (11:49):
All right?
Speaker 1 (11:49):
So for me, either Jerry Jones kid is bluffing like
a riverboat gambler, or by George George Pickens was the
football equivalent of bad news. And he's got the has
Matt label stamped on his helmet. Has Matt picked your poison?
(12:15):
So it's another episode of the seasonal show. It's not
on all year, it's only on during the during the
off season. The Cowboys traveling Circus. This is where the
drama gets cranked up, and if Pickens were a can't miss,
no brainer franchise wide receiver and he had a clean
(12:36):
rap sheet and everything was good to go on that
the phones would be melting. You know, a text here,
text there, text everywhere. They're not silence and deafening sound.
If you believe Stephen Jones. That's not a marketition. Now,
it is possible that Stephen Jones is tossing this out
there for two reasons. The first reason would be to
(12:59):
convince George Pickens that nobody else wants him, so signed
the contract. The other possibility is Steven Jones tossed this
out there to try to convince some dumb dumb executive
or owner to go try to get George Pickens so
the Cowboys could trade him, just like they traded last
year their star defensive player Micah Parsons to the Frozen Thunder.
(13:23):
So keep an eye on that. And Pickens is a
highlight reel vacuum sealed in a headache, So yeah, the
highlights are there. You're sealed with a headache, you got
a migraine, And it does actually make sense. This is
something the Cowboys got right. They rarely do anything properly,
but this is something they got right. The Cowboys going
year to year is the smart move. The Malor think
(13:48):
tank recognized this was the move, and the Cowboys have
done it. They're trying to do it. They're attempting to
do it. And so it's year to years, not at
it's more risk management. Everyone's risk adverse, adversive and and
all that. So it's it's a case where Pickens is
(14:10):
he a misunderstood artisan of the catch or a pyromaniac
arsonist for the locker room. And at this point we
do the show right now. At this point, teams see
the fireworks and they smell the smoke, and nobody's rushing
(14:31):
to say where where that? Where the matches? We need
to go find the matches. No one's doing that, all right,
Last thing, we go to Jersey. We have a status update.
Typically at the NFL Draft there are multiple quasi star
players who are relocated. Now it is anticipated that aj
(14:52):
Brown will be one of those players out of Philadelphia.
Another one hanging by the their fingernails would be Dexter Lawrence.
So we are now told the Giants and defensive tackle
Dexter Lawrence have been talking about a new big money
contract extension to keep him in New York slash New Jersey.
(15:14):
But yep, you know what that means. They have reached Impass.
They are at not ass Impass. Slightly different, slightly different
there now, the state funded NFL media Ian Rappaport tells
us the Giants have engaged with teams on a potential
trade and that is going to continue in the days
(15:37):
up until the NFL Draft, as that's where everything the
rubber meets the road. NFL Draft first round a week
from tomorrow as today obviously Wednesday, so that would mean
tomorrow would be Thursday, and then a week from today
tomorrow that's the first round of the NFL Draft. It's
amazing how that works, all right. So the question on
(15:59):
this one, why I did this Dexter Lawrence story get
leaked by the Giants? Now? Why did it get leaked?
All right? So this story, it didn't just leak. It
was painted like a yard sign during an open house.
There were signs down the block, turn here, then turn there,
(16:22):
and then go down and make a U turn and teta,
you're at the open house. The New York Giants are
shopping the narrative and it's like they're trying to stir
up some bidding. They would like you to make an offer,
whether you're an NFL team or the Winnipeg Blue Bombers
or one of these other outfits, and they want to
(16:44):
get a bidding war for Dexter Lawrence, who pretty much
picked a goose egg and a rather important start for
a defensive player last year. Now, this is negotiating one
oh one. It is. You use the media, just like
the boys with their situation with George Pickens the Giants
doing the same thing. You use this as a Times
(17:06):
Square billboard. What's on the billboard. Look, we've got this
dominant defensive tackle. Supplies are limited and he can be yours.
If a price is right, come on down. So if
you're the Chiefs.
Speaker 5 (17:22):
Or the Patriots, the Rams or the Seahawks, knock on
the door, say hey, what would the price be on
that I'd like that item?
Speaker 1 (17:33):
Well, how much are you willing to pay? I don't
know how much I'm willing to play at pay what
is the price on that item? So meanwhile, behind the curtain,
both sides are acting like turtles, and as always it's
about money, and they are the Loggerhead turtle at logger
Heads and don't kid yourself. Do not kid yourself. This
(17:57):
is about it's not about culture. I know that Dexter
Lawrence being upset with the Giants not about culture. It's
not about leadership. He hasn't even played a day for
Harball John Harbaugh, who's the new coach of the Giants.
He hadn't played a day for him. He's not even
given him a fair shake. And the reason Dexter Lawrence
is not giving him a fair shake, this is about
securing the bag. What's in the bag money, money, money,
(18:21):
a lot of money, a lot of gold bars. And
he's trying to refinance his career is what he's trying
to do. And he's not chasing a Lombardi. He's essentially
chasing compound interest is what he's chasing, Dexter Lawrence. And
so the Giants offered a contract and Lawrence gave it
(18:42):
side eye. He countered asking. I think he asked for
his extra pension and then some stock options, and he'd
like a nice vacation home for the weekend in the summer. Yeah,
he wants that beachfront property. Oh why do you want that? Well,
I can't ask for anything. Maybe they'll give it to me.

getting mollywopped at work? And how bad is it? Well,
the other night, the Baltimore Orioles, that is a baseball
(22:52):
team that have been good recently. Who knows, So the
Orioles manager Craig Albernaz took a lone mine drive right
off the face SAPA during a game against Arizona. We
have a injury update. Injury update on getting molly wopped
by a baseball? Is it true? Is it true that
(23:16):
the Orioles manager revealed how many how many fractured, slashed
broken bones he had as a result. All right, so
let's go around the room. I know the answer. No chating,
Do not chaate, Do not chaate? All right, here we go.
You can play as well as you're listening. All right, Lorena,
(23:38):
take a guess how many broken bones did the Orioles manager,
Craig Albernaz suffer when hit by a baseball in the
head against the diamondbacks. No bones, no bones were okay,
cartilage all right? Interesting, interesting way to answer the question.
(24:00):
A loop. Okay, he got hit in the head, Yes,
hit in the head. He revealed the damage to his face. Yeah,
I'm going to say you listen to our live coverage.
We've gone round robin here. Four you think he broke
four bones? All right? Reveal answers. It turns out that
(24:22):
the Orioles manager claims that he broke as do the
math on this, he says he has at least seven
fractures in his cheek area and a broken jaw, meaning
he broke eight bones.
Speaker 3 (24:37):
Eight.
Speaker 1 (24:38):
That's not how that works, Yeah, it is. Yeah, you
have four. I looked it up. You have fourteen bones
in your in your face, there are, but so he
has seven fractures he has in there are on different bones.
He said he has seven, yes, seven fractures there. You
get your nasal bones. You've got a bunch of bones.
I can't even pronounce because I don't know how to
(24:59):
say them. They're weird medical terms. But you have there's
a total of fourteen bones in your face. He's claiming
that he's got seven fractures, and then the broken jaw,
which is different. You've got the lower jaw and those
that's a single bone and then so there's two side separate.
But he said so fifty seven percent of the bones
(25:20):
he broke in his in his face. That's what he's claiming.
You think he's lying. He says he has to He
says he now has to eat only You can only
eat baby food for six weeks. Oh jeez, yeah, you
can eat mashed potato. I had a boyfriend who did
that one. I ate baby food. Did you think that
was cool?
Speaker 6 (25:35):
Well?
Speaker 1 (25:35):
He he was doing a gainer off of the bleachers
at school and he hit his job. It's like where
you do a running backflip. Okay, yeah, and he hit
his job. You always like those. You like those bad boys,
don't you learn? You like the You like the trouble makers.
Don't you like the bad boys do running backflips? Trying
to like the daredevil crowd?
Speaker 7 (25:52):
Right?
Speaker 1 (25:53):
Killed one? You like the daredevil crowd? Right? Yeah? Favorite.
My idea of being a daredevil is sitting on the
couch flipping to game the game. That's my favorite flavor
of baby food. If you had to only eat baby food,
what would your favorite flavor of baby food be I
(26:14):
would do bananas. Ah see, okay, everyone goes bananas, but
you got you got the main go it really good apple?
Come on. I used to do the jarred baby food
all the time with my daughter and we just yeah,
I would.
Speaker 3 (26:27):
I would.
Speaker 1 (26:27):
I was told by my mom and she had You know,
she's not with us anymore, so she can't fight back
on this that I like the apple cinnamon when I
was a kid, and I still like the apple cinnamon
as it had grown up. How about that I didn't change.
I was a little baby and I loved apple cinnamon
a little kid. Suppose them. Yeah, I don't know that.
I've had the pear blueberry, and I bet that's good too.
We should get some baby foods and try them. I'm good.
(26:49):
I definitely didn't like the carrots or the the pee
squash stuff. I didn't like that. That's not that's not
my thing anyway. Right. It is the Bane Madler Show.
Let's go to the phones and let's say hello to Andrea.
She's in Berkeley and she's our astrology insider. Hello Andrea,
and we also have password the word Game of the
(27:10):
Stars coming up in a few minutes. Hello, Andrea, Hello, Ben,
how are you? If I was any better, I'd be
a Met, but not a New York Met. They've now
lost seven games in a row.
Speaker 4 (27:22):
I know it's gotten really challenging, but you know, you
gotta believe lost.
Speaker 1 (27:28):
Mets fans know, well, you gotta believe the team stinks,
is what you gotta believe right now, because they get
now scored by sixteen runs in this seven game losing
most of these. This last night was close against the Dodgers,
but most of these games have not been closed.
Speaker 4 (27:42):
No, they're definitely in a tough stretch. And oh, first
thing first, the full moon, Dan is actually May first.
Speaker 1 (27:51):
No, we got some time, We got.
Speaker 4 (27:54):
Some times because she mentioned it feels like the full moon.
Speaker 1 (27:57):
Oh good, I will not be traveling. I'll be traveling
in mid April, which is far enough away from the
full moon. I do not have to worry about any
kind of cosmic problem, as you know, because we've talked
about the full moon effects happened a week before to
a weekends, right, yeah, corrects like two weeks.
Speaker 4 (28:14):
And mercury is not retrograde. And your birthday is coming up.
We got the sun and taurists coming upon okay, so
a lot to look forward to. And that said, we
have six planets and ares, So for all your listeners
out there, especially aries, know that it's a really intense time.
Edwin Diaz. I looked at his chart and he's, you know,
(28:40):
it was like unexplained. He said, something didn't quite feel right.
And what's interesting, he's March twenty sixth. Let's see nineteen
ninety four. And when you have a transit like that,
you feel, you know, Neptune is confusions like a fog
(29:00):
sended Saturn, however, been wells a skeletal system, bones, knees, teeth, joints, back.
So it's interesting to see what we'll transpire there. So
we'll keep an eye out to see what happens with him.
And I just had to with all to talk about
(29:21):
Diana Rose Tut and Mike Grabel. You know, before my
sports astrology ni's Ben I had a relationship astrology focus,
you know, like compatibility is another one of my specialty.
And this is interesting Ben, since we'll get a kick
out of his opposite to tract. Diana Rossini February eleven,
(29:47):
nineteen eighty three. She's a freedom loving aquarius, likes the
disrupt the status quo eccentric and my Rabel is a
Leo needs the attention. It's fourteen, nineteen seventy five. So
Leo is like the king of the Zodiac, so needs
a lot of attention and affection and need to feel special.
(30:12):
So opposites a tract. But they can also repel.
Speaker 1 (30:15):
Well, they did attract right now they're repelling. And I
believe I looked at Diana Rassini star Charge. She likes
scoops for some reason. I don't know why, but anyway,
all right, well, thank you, Andrea, very good Andrea in Berkeley.
