number four, how do you process the Buffalo Bills GM
Brandon Bean saying that younger gms are playing Madden and
that's why we've had so many trades. The rash of
trades is because they grew up playing Madden, and that's
what that's all about. Also, does Shadur Sanders even want
to play for the Browns? There's some in Cleveland media
(00:48):
saying he doesn't seem to want to play in the
NFL even though he's on the team. And is there
a deeper meaning to the Jags up selling Jacoby Myers
on his superpower not dropping passes. We'll go there as well.
All of it and more right now, and it's yours
in our number four, have a great Thursday, but we
(01:10):
now know why there have been so many trades in
recent years in the NFL. Yeah, believe it or not.
Welcome in the beginning of another hour of the Ben
Malor Show. We are in the air avywhere Chin Wagon
(01:31):
as we provide pure bliss in every single take unless

moating live from the Zilla as we try to tame
(01:53):
the almighty, all powerful omnipresent take Zilla from the world
famous Fox Sports Radio Studios, as approved by Eloy from
Compton and Noah in Austin. And Noah told me, he said, Ben,

what about what about that DraftKings thing? I'll tell you
(02:58):
a big rig Rob. This show is sponsored also by
DraftKings sportsbook. That's right, an official sports betting partner of
the NFL and NBA. Bill in Korea Town knows that
right now, if you use the promo code mallor that's
m A l l e R to claim your special
offer at DraftKings, you can help us out on that.
And again that's promo code malor m A l l
(03:22):
e R at DraftKings. The crown is yours, so our
lead this hour is from the NFL, and we go
where the Buffalo Roam. Well it's actually Orchard Park, but
close enough to Buffalo. The post mortem post mortem. On
the twenty twenty five trade deadline, the Buffalo Bills among
(03:46):
the teams that decided to not do anything of note.
There was a lot of movement in the NFL, just
not everyone wanted to get involved in the dance party.
So the Bill's mafia seems to be pretty upset about this.
This is the window of opportunity for Josh Allen, and
the front office in Buffalo decided that they would rather
(04:07):
tread water. Tread water with what they had. They didn't
want to make any kind of a move, certainly on
a splash move, so there was no lake effect blizzard
at the trade deadline. Now did you hear how the
front office in Buffalo under these circumstances, how they handled
the negative attention that they're getting for not doing their
(04:28):
job taking a hard line the other direction? So you didn't,
perhaps not? Perhaps not?
Speaker 3 (04:35):
So.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
The Bill's GM, Brandon Bean, is his name, and plausibly
his job is to make transactions to help the football
team in Buffalo get to a championship level. So he
decided that, hey, all these trades, let me explain something.
I'm gonna tell you why there are so many trades
(04:55):
that are happening these days. And then he also explained
kind of why the Bills didn't do anything. Let's go
to the audio tape here. He is the general management
of Buffalo, Brandon Bean, and I think.
Speaker 4 (05:05):
There's definitely a faction of you know, the gms are
coming in younger, and there's more of played true fantasy
football and stuff like that, and they're growing up in
a world of trades.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
Yeah, so a world of trades there, he went on
to say. He mentioned the Madden thing, also mentioned fantasy football.
When asked why he did not make any trades, he said,
ninety nine percent of the players are available for a price,
he said, but it's not fantasy football, all right. So
that's all a good jumping off point. Let us discuss
(05:40):
the question how do you process Bill's GM Brandon Bean
saying younger gms, younger gms playing Madden, are to blame
for the rash of NFL trades, all right, So on
this one, I've got yellow raincoat, iPad and sticks of margarine,
(06:03):
and we will combine all of these things together and
we are going to jockey in position into position as
a jockey. That's what we're going to do now. To kickoff.
The word I will use for this is a word
that starts with a D. It's called deflection, capital D. Deflection.
(06:24):
That's what this answer was by Brandon. Being the GM
in Buffalo, your job is to improve the team. Your
job is to not just sit there and be a
spectator and watch Josh Allen play, ride the coattails of
Josh Allen and eat, drink and be merry, for he's
a jolly good fellow. For he's a jolly goodfellow. No,
(06:44):
that's what Lucky Tony would say in the Bay Area.
So anyway, now he's upset because the Bills fans are upset.
This is the way I read the room. This way
I read the room. So the Bills fans are upset.
They're like, We've only got a couple more years of
Josh Allen's prime. Before you know it, he's going to
be past his prime. What are we doing? The Patriots
appear to be pretty good, although they haven't played anybody
(07:06):
other than us, and beating anybody other than us, that's
any good. But nonetheless, hey, if you're in Buffalo, are
you just gonna fuss away this opportunity? You know, roasting
snow in a furnace? What are you doing? And so
the Bills gm there, He's like, Okay, well people are
upset with me, so I'm gonna call everyone else immature
(07:26):
and rather than me, because I'm I'm not really improving
the team, but I didn't give up any of those
draft picks being you know what he sounds like. He
sounds like the new mascot for Morton Salt. You know
that Morton Salt girl. You know that famous logo on
the if you buy the salt. There. They got the
yellow raincoat coat, Yeah, yellow raincoat. You got the umbrella up,
(07:49):
the salt pouring all over the place. He's he's salty.
The GM of the Bills is salty. You could have
probably should have traded for Trey Hendrickson of the Cincinnati
ben Gals or Max Crosby of the Raiders and just
loaded up on defense, gone out and gotten a wide
receiver like Jacobe Myers, who we're going to talk about
(08:10):
in a couple of minutes, but somebody that could have
actually enhanced the roster and giving you a better chance
of improving instead in terms of impact players. In terms
of impact players, the Buffalo Bills did. Squadush is what
they did. And for the record, for the record, Howie
Roseman like him or hate him, the pompous, arrogant general
(08:32):
manager of the Philadelphia Eagles. I'm pretty sure he did
not grow up playing Madden Football. And he makes outraise
his trades all the time, like it's his bodily function
to make trades, his place in the universes to make trades.
He's fifty years old. He didn't grow up with Madden.
He's older than the general manager in Buffalo. So the
(08:56):
young Madden GM thing total nonsense, total nonsense. Right, It's
a classic bold strategy, Cotton defense. That's a bold strategy, Cotton.
When you get caught sitting on your hands, you had
one job and one job only, and you're sitting there
(09:17):
and you're biting your fingernails, then you blame the kids
in their video games, you kids in your video games.
And so if the entire league is playing Madden and
you're not playing Madden, are you the good guy or
the bad guy? And what exactly is the BILLSGM doing?
Is he playing like stratamatic football? Is that what he's doing?
(09:38):
Pulled out the strata matic? All right? Furthermore to Cleveland,
we go bad football, good talk radio. Another day, another
story out of Cleveland. So some long time media hawks,
honk honk honk, media hawks in Cleveland questioning if backup
quarterback Shetur Sanders actually wants to play for the brown
(10:00):
what well. The report says that they're questioning the legitimacy
of the injury. There is a story in Arizona, for example,
this week, where most people seem to think the Cardinals
and Kyler Murray are full of crap. That popular opinion
is he's not actually hurt, he's just his pride has hurt.
His small pride. He had, not big pride, because he's
(10:22):
a little fella. But he's upset because he got benched,
and he's sad and he just wants to play call
of duty for the next month. And the Cardinals are like, okay,
play call of duty for the next month, will bury
you on the injury list. Well, in Cleveland, it's a
bit of a different situation. The questions are being asked,
how could Shoulder Sanders have not one, not to but
three different injuries without playing? I am playing this year
(10:46):
and he's already had three different injuries? Question, does should
Sanders even want to play for the Browns? So we're
not in the mind of shouldar Sanders a talk show
to do? It sounds like gobblede gook when you first
hear it. Why would you not want to play? It
makes no sense to not want to play yet when
(11:08):
you pull back the brown curtain, how do you how
do you have three different injuries when you haven't really
played much at all and you practice, but you really
haven't done much at practice? Like what exactly did he do?
Did Shader Sanders pull a muscle when he bent down
to pick up his iPad? And maybe he dropped the
(11:29):
tablet on the floor and he went to grab it
and he pulled his back out like Dion's get when
you juxtaposed what he was like in college, he held
the ball for too long and got sacked a ton right,
kid was a crash test dummy at Colorado. I think
he was sacked fifty times in a season if I
remember correctly. I don't have it off the top of
(11:49):
my head, but I believe that was it. So he
kept getting hit and he kept getting up and now
suddenly not playing, just being a practice roster span player.
We're supposed to believe that Shadhu Sanders is now made
out of glass, that in Colorado getting hit all over
the place, he needed a juice box because he was
(12:11):
so beaten up. But he kept playing and all that stuff.
So it's things that make you go hmm, things that
make you go hmm, like, come on, Either these are
phantom injuries made up out of fin air, or the
other possibility is that Schaduur knows if he goes in,
(12:33):
he will suck, he will get clobbered, it will be bad,
and then the myth of Shoudar Sanders goes away. There's
a mythical element to this. He's like Johnny Appleseed or
something like that. It's it's the greatest gig. You're the
backup you don't play. Think how much more time should
Sanders has for social media because he's not playing. He's
(12:55):
got a lot of time there and everyone loves the
backup quarterback. Think of this like, there's a military term
for it. It's called malingering. Lingering pretending you're hurt so
you don't have to do your job in the military,
your tour of duty, whatever. Except in this case, he's
dodging a defensive line instead of a draft, and it's
(13:18):
very like his back's probably sore. It's sore not from playing,
from carrying around all the different camera lenses and all
the lighting and all that stuff. It's like, it's the
prime legacy episode you got to have all the right lighting.
And when you look at Jador Sanders and the scouting report,
it doesn't say great passer. It doesn't say that he's
(13:39):
a wonderful leader, It doesn't say that he's a great teammate.
It says that his power is as a social media
influencer wearing shoulder pads. That's it all right, now, last thing,
speaking of superpowers. We go to Jacksonville, Florida. Bad football
makes good talk radio. So someone named James Gladstone, someone
(14:01):
named James Gladstone. We are told that that is the
general manager of the team in Jacksonville. Take that for
what it's worth. So he scrapped together a couple of
moves that the deadline. Some people are hopping on the bandwagon.
Other people are like, what did you do? But the
big one, if you want to call it big all
Buffalo slipped into vacation mode, and the Patriots did as well.
(14:23):
Jacksonville went out made a trade with the Raiders for
wide receiver Jacoby Myers. The law firm Jacoby and Myers,
and so Jacoby Myers. According to James Gladstone, he said,
the player I just traded for from the Raiders has
a superpower now, what is his superpower? Does he have
X ray vision? Can he leap tall buildings in a
(14:43):
single mound? What is it? Is he bulletproof? Well, it
turns out that his superpower is his hands. He doesn't
drop past this Myers coming over from Vegas at the deadline.
He's not the greatest receiver. He's not the worst receiver
in the world. But according to the GM there, it's
(15:04):
all about the hand. Oh my hands. I have such
good hands. Look at my hand. You can't see my hand.
Look at that hand. That's a great hand. All right. Now,
the question is there a deeper meaning to the Jaguars
up selling Jacoby Myers and his superpower of not dropping passes?
(15:27):
So I use the malor Rosetta stone to translate. I've
been using it a lot lately. And this is not
an innocuous comment. This is not a benign comment. There's
a message in there. It's a two for one daily
double daily double, daily double, daily double, two for one
daily double. The first part is the general manager celebrating
(15:49):
the general manager, making it all about him, like I
did this. I traded for this guy. He doesn't drop
any passes. He's got a superpower. I might as well
have traded for Captain America or Batman, Oh my God,
or spider Man. This is big. His superpower Jacoby Myers
is he doesn't drop passes. And he didn't go to
(16:10):
the Steelers. He didn't go back to the Pages. He
came to Jacksonville. So that's the first part. The other
is the message. And when you're celebrating the new guy
for having a superpower of not dropping passes, you're also
taking a backhanded shot at Brian Thomas Junior BTJ, and
(16:33):
you're like, hey, hey, Brian, I know it's a popular
candy bar. Can you please not be a endorser of
butterfingers during the game, please? When you're playing football? Nine
drop passes for the former first round draft of Brian
Thomas Junior. Nine of them his hands. Unlike Jacoby Myers,
(16:53):
who if you look at him, according to the GM,
there has a superpower. If you look at the other guy,
the receiver here BTJ, Brian Thomas Jr. His hands are
like sticks of margarine in the Florida sun. That's what's like.
You don't go out of your way to celebrate catching
the football unless the rest of the room cannot do it,
(17:14):
and so this is absolutely a referendum on the entire
receiving group. The Jaguars lead the NFL. Congratulations twenty one
twenty one dropped passes twenty one of them. That you
cannot run a functioning offense with that many drop passes.
And it's not just the receivers that are screwing up.
(17:38):
Trevor Lawrence has been throwing what is often called the
hospital ball. Now, that's the type of throw that's high
or laid or over the middle, and the receiver has
to jump over the middle and put their body in
harm's way, thus likely ending up on a gurney and
(17:58):
being taken to the hospital in an ambulance. So he
throws a lot of hospital balls, and he's practically signing
the injury waifer for these guys at this point. Now,
regardless when your general manager is talking about the new
guy not dropping passes as a superpower. That's like bragging
that your car starts when you turn the key. I say, oh,
(18:20):
you want It's like texting your wife. You will not
believe this. I turned the car on and I hit
the little button. I didn't even turn the key because
it's got the button feature and it turned right on.
It's so good. If catching is a superpower, that's how
bad Jacksonville is. Well, when Jacoby Myers gets it, you
(18:40):
want to Betty drops two passes in the next game.
Here two passes in his next game for the Jags,
because that's kryptonite. Things are getting spicy in Douaal County.
A little passive, aggressive press conference energy from the general
manager there, and that's when you know that you're teetering
on the brink. You're tiptoeing on the brink. The whole
(19:02):
thing's going to come apart. And when they start giving
out compliments that sound like veiled threats, that is not
not a healthy team. That is a distress signal, is
what that is. It is the Ben Mahlor Show. If

But then when I'm ready to shine, I go out,
you stand up comedy and I celebrate. And people actually
do like to give me money. They like to give

People will give me money because of it because I
post about it all the time. So I'm actually good

embarrassed by me. Because I got you.

being rage baited as a professional athlete with a massive
amount of money coming away and being motivated because somebody
was trash talking. We take it out of the NBA
Spider Mitchell Donovan's Mitchell of the Cleveland Cavaliers revealed, Now
(28:04):
he went out, he had a massive game last night.
There were twelve people watching, but he had a massive
forty six point game against the Sixers. And so he's like, well,
you've been around a long time, it's a regular season game.
You know, you're a good player and all that, But
what the hell happened there? Like, what was that all about?
And he said that he was motivated. He spent a
(28:26):
couple of hours in the afternoon. Imagine how tough, what
a tough life this is. So your professional athlete and
you have so much free time that you have hours
to play NBA two K, and he's on there and
some he don't know whether it's a young person or
old person, somebody is calling him washed up, and essentially
(28:48):
the guy's at bumm, you know that kind of thing.
And so he was going back and forth. He told
the stories, like going back to this guy's trolling him,
and he went out and so I'm gonna show this guy.
And then he scored forty six points. And it's not
one hundred points, so it's not eighty points, but forty
(29:09):
six is a pretty good amount of points to score
in an NBA game. And it's it's always amusing to
me these guys, the amount of money that they make.
Like Mitchell's on a one hundred and fifty million dollar
contract with the Cleveland Cavaliers, and yet he's motivated by
some Dodo bird playing NBA two K in the afternoon.
(29:30):
It's just it's it's wild. So if I was the
coach of the Cavaliers, what I would do is I
would just go every afternoon, I would go on NBA
two K, and I would then harass Spider Mitchell. I'd
be like, all right, Donovan, you're a douche. You're Donovan
the douche and just go through that and all the
guy's made almost two hundred million dollars playing basketball and
(29:52):
he's motivated by some dope on on the the X Machine. Anyway,
it is the Ben Maler Shows. Go down to a
man who's been very patient, and it has a lot
to say regarding the quarterbacks. Paul in Ottawa, Hello, Paul, Welcome, Paul,
Hey Ben.
Speaker 3 (30:07):
First, I should tip my hat to your LA Dodgers
for defeating our Blue Jays up here. I think we
can agree though that it was a memorable series, quite competitive.
Speaker 2 (30:20):
And that was great. It was great. Bud just had
the Dodgers on the ropes they did.
Speaker 3 (30:25):
But as far as the quarterbacks, for some reason, when
I think about guys like Kyler Murray and Deshaun Watson
and they get all this money, and it makes me
angry that they then become I'm kind of indifferent and
kind of they kind of disappear and it interests me.
(30:46):
I don't know their full answer to this, but some
guys get paid like Patrick Mahomes and he just he
plays every game as though he's trying out for the team,
and he If you don't saw the Buffalo Kansas City game,
and it's almost as though he got hit on every play.
He throws the ball and gets hit and he lands
(31:08):
and I don't know how he gets out of bed
on Monday morning. But it takes me back to a
movie I saw in the nineteen eighties. I think it
was called All American or something, and Dennis Quaid plays
a running back who wins the Heisman in college. Then
he gets to the pros and he has a more
difficult time, But at the end of his career he says,
(31:30):
you know, I didn't play this game for money, and
didn't play for this or for that. I played because
I loved it.
Speaker 2 (31:39):
And I think, well, that definitely that works in the movies.
It doesn't work in real life, though. See that's the
problem you've got. As you know, Paul, human beings are
involved in all that. The other factor with a lot
of these guys is they were never that good. It's
just teams have this fomo. It's fear of missing out.
They're like they, yeah, the Dolphins, the Dolphins knew that
(31:59):
too was not great. The Cardinals knew that Kyler Murray
wasn't the guy. But they're like, well, we gotta pay
him because someone else is gonna pay him. And then
what if we let Kyler Murray go and he goes
to like the you know, the Cowboys and lights the
world on fire or something. Well, we'll never be we'll
never be forgiven. And so that's Trevor Lawrence is a
great example. Trevor Lawrence was supposed to be good. He's
(32:21):
never been that good in the NFL. But Jacksonville they like,
we have to keep him. He's going to be fine.
They've gone through coaches and teammates and the guy stinks
whoever he plays with. So anyway, Ig, yeah, that's it,
Thank Youboud. Let's go to Cowboy John Brad. We stay
in Canada. We go to Windsor, Ontario, Canada, and a
(32:42):
fine Canadian lad, Cowboy John Brad.
Speaker 7 (32:45):
Oh Hi Ben Well nineteen sixties singer PJ. Proby's eighty
seven today and forty four years ago today. Heavyweight champion
Larry Holmes was seventy six on Monday. They got about

(33:05):
challenger Ronaldo's Nights in the eleventh round, and Holmes had
done the very same thing the seventh round knockdown and
rising to stop on the late Ernie Shavers to retain
the heavyweight title. September twenty eighth, nineteen seventy nine, yesterday,
Herman Hermott's frontman with seventy eight Peter Noon, Herman Hermit's
(33:32):

are you all right? If I was any better, I
would be a Leprechaun, but not Mike the Leprechaun, as
(38:07):
you know. So yeah, all right, let's play the game.
Here we go three stories. Figure out which the three
is not true, separating fiction from fact. Story number one,
number one, So saus Gardner was traded to the Colts
this week and a video went viral. A young fan
said that he was so upset to the little kid.
He cried, had a hissy fit, and he said he's
(38:28):
switching to the Colts as his favorite team. Well, Gardner
reposted the video response he had a response. He thanked
the young fan and said that he will be sending
them the two kids a couple of signed Colts jerseys.
Story number two Sydney Sweeney and planning Hall of Fame
boxer Christy Martin in an upcoming biopich he's currently doing
(38:50):
a lot of promotion for the film, and in fact,
she's actually going to be training in trade for the Walls.
She'll get into the ring for real and face offing
his former mmas our page Van van Zandt unless she's not.
And Story number three show Hey Otani well the fan
authenticating the ball, the second bomb being auctioned off, the
(39:13):
fan who came up with the ball in center field.
Concourses now had to write a Affidavid and undergo a
polygraph test in order to authenticate the ball to sell
it all right, real quick, let's go rapid fire. Daniel
one to or three Daniel cow all right, James one
too or three, James number one, Steve one to or three,
(39:36):
Steve number Mike the Leprechaun. Yeah no, we're out of
the match, out of the show. It's number number two
was the fake shore number two was the faker this week. Sorry,
mat number two
Here we go.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
Going off the deep end. In our number four, The
Ben Maler Show, don't forget about Benny versus the Penny.
It is available for your listening, audio needs and video
needs throughout the day today on YouTube. Help us out
do us a solid The Thursday preview Raiders and Broncos
exclusively a global exclusive on YouTube. Everyone's yeah watching it.
I want you to watch it as well as subscribe
(00:25):
to that channel at Benny Vspenny. And here in our
number four, how do you process the Buffalo Bills GM
Brandon Bean saying that younger gms are playing Madden and
that's why we've had so many trades. The rash of
trades is because they grew up playing Madden, and that's
what that's all about. Also, does Shadur Sanders even want
to play for the Browns? There's some in Cleveland media
(00:48):
saying he doesn't seem to want to play in the
NFL even though he's on the team. And is there
a deeper meaning to the Jags up selling Jacoby Myers
on his superpower not dropping passes. We'll go there as well.
All of it and more right now, and it's yours
in our number four, have a great Thursday, but we
(01:10):
now know why there have been so many trades in
recent years in the NFL. Yeah, believe it or not.
Welcome in the beginning of another hour of the Ben
Malor Show. We are in the air avywhere Chin Wagon
(01:31):
as we provide pure bliss in every single take unless
we don't. Coast to coast, border to border and beyond
on the mast and hellaciously powerful microphones of FSR am
moating live from the Zilla as we try to tame
(01:53):
the almighty, all powerful omnipresent take Zilla from the world
famous Fox Sports Radio Studios, as approved by Eloy from
Compton and Noah in Austin. And Noah told me, he said, Ben,
what's going on with those tires? Well, I'll tell you, Noah.
It's all about tire Rack. For over forty years, ty
Iraq has been helping customers like mister nice guy find
(02:14):
the right tires for how, what and where they drive,
ship fast and free back by free road hazard protection
with convenient installation options like mobile tire installation, tire rack
dot Com. The way tire buying should be. Lance the
bus driver says, what about that employment place. I'll tell
you Lance, getting a new job can be so much
(02:36):
easier with Express Employment Professionals. With Express you'll have a
local connection to the job market. Get started at expresspros
dot com to find the location near you. That's www
dot expresspros dot com. I know, and big Rig Rob says, Hey,
what about what about that DraftKings thing? I'll tell you
(02:58):
a big rig Rob. This show is sponsored also by
DraftKings sportsbook. That's right, an official sports betting partner of
the NFL and NBA. Bill in Korea Town knows that
right now, if you use the promo code mallor that's
m A l l e R to claim your special
offer at DraftKings, you can help us out on that.
And again that's promo code malor m A l l
(03:22):
e R at DraftKings. The crown is yours, so our
lead this hour is from the NFL, and we go
where the Buffalo Roam. Well it's actually Orchard Park, but
close enough to Buffalo. The post mortem post mortem. On
the twenty twenty five trade deadline, the Buffalo Bills among
(03:46):
the teams that decided to not do anything of note.
There was a lot of movement in the NFL, just
not everyone wanted to get involved in the dance party.
So the Bill's mafia seems to be pretty upset about this.
This is the window of opportunity for Josh Allen, and
the front office in Buffalo decided that they would rather
(04:07):
tread water. Tread water with what they had. They didn't
want to make any kind of a move, certainly on
a splash move, so there was no lake effect blizzard
at the trade deadline. Now did you hear how the
front office in Buffalo under these circumstances, how they handled
the negative attention that they're getting for not doing their
(04:28):
job taking a hard line the other direction? So you didn't,
perhaps not? Perhaps not?
Speaker 3 (04:35):
So.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
The Bill's GM, Brandon Bean, is his name, and plausibly
his job is to make transactions to help the football
team in Buffalo get to a championship level. So he
decided that, hey, all these trades, let me explain something.
I'm gonna tell you why there are so many trades
(04:55):
that are happening these days. And then he also explained
kind of why the Bills didn't do anything. Let's go
to the audio tape here. He is the general management
of Buffalo, Brandon Bean, and I think.
Speaker 4 (05:05):
There's definitely a faction of you know, the gms are
coming in younger, and there's more of played true fantasy
football and stuff like that, and they're growing up in
a world of trades.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
Yeah, so a world of trades there, he went on
to say. He mentioned the Madden thing, also mentioned fantasy football.
When asked why he did not make any trades, he said,
ninety nine percent of the players are available for a price,
he said, but it's not fantasy football, all right. So
that's all a good jumping off point. Let us discuss
(05:40):
the question how do you process Bill's GM Brandon Bean
saying younger gms, younger gms playing Madden, are to blame
for the rash of NFL trades, all right, So on
this one, I've got yellow raincoat, iPad and sticks of margarine,
(06:03):
and we will combine all of these things together and
we are going to jockey in position into position as
a jockey. That's what we're going to do now. To kickoff.
The word I will use for this is a word
that starts with a D. It's called deflection, capital D. Deflection.
(06:24):
That's what this answer was by Brandon. Being the GM
in Buffalo, your job is to improve the team. Your
job is to not just sit there and be a
spectator and watch Josh Allen play, ride the coattails of
Josh Allen and eat, drink and be merry, for he's
a jolly good fellow. For he's a jolly goodfellow. No,
(06:44):
that's what Lucky Tony would say in the Bay Area.
So anyway, now he's upset because the Bills fans are upset.
This is the way I read the room. This way
I read the room. So the Bills fans are upset.
They're like, We've only got a couple more years of
Josh Allen's prime. Before you know it, he's going to
be past his prime. What are we doing? The Patriots
appear to be pretty good, although they haven't played anybody
(07:06):
other than us, and beating anybody other than us, that's
any good. But nonetheless, hey, if you're in Buffalo, are
you just gonna fuss away this opportunity? You know, roasting
snow in a furnace? What are you doing? And so
the Bills gm there, He's like, Okay, well people are
upset with me, so I'm gonna call everyone else immature
(07:26):
and rather than me, because I'm I'm not really improving
the team, but I didn't give up any of those
draft picks being you know what he sounds like. He
sounds like the new mascot for Morton Salt. You know
that Morton Salt girl. You know that famous logo on
the if you buy the salt. There. They got the
yellow raincoat coat, Yeah, yellow raincoat. You got the umbrella up,
(07:49):
the salt pouring all over the place. He's he's salty.
The GM of the Bills is salty. You could have
probably should have traded for Trey Hendrickson of the Cincinnati
ben Gals or Max Crosby of the Raiders and just
loaded up on defense, gone out and gotten a wide
receiver like Jacobe Myers, who we're going to talk about
(08:10):
in a couple of minutes, but somebody that could have
actually enhanced the roster and giving you a better chance
of improving instead in terms of impact players. In terms
of impact players, the Buffalo Bills did. Squadush is what
they did. And for the record, for the record, Howie
Roseman like him or hate him, the pompous, arrogant general
(08:32):
manager of the Philadelphia Eagles. I'm pretty sure he did
not grow up playing Madden Football. And he makes outraise
his trades all the time, like it's his bodily function
to make trades, his place in the universes to make trades.
He's fifty years old. He didn't grow up with Madden.
He's older than the general manager in Buffalo. So the
(08:56):
young Madden GM thing total nonsense, total nonsense. Right, It's
a classic bold strategy, Cotton defense. That's a bold strategy, Cotton.
When you get caught sitting on your hands, you had
one job and one job only, and you're sitting there
(09:17):
and you're biting your fingernails, then you blame the kids
in their video games, you kids in your video games.
And so if the entire league is playing Madden and
you're not playing Madden, are you the good guy or
the bad guy? And what exactly is the BILLSGM doing?
Is he playing like stratamatic football? Is that what he's doing?
(09:38):
Pulled out the strata matic? All right? Furthermore to Cleveland,
we go bad football, good talk radio. Another day, another
story out of Cleveland. So some long time media hawks,
honk honk honk, media hawks in Cleveland questioning if backup
quarterback Shetur Sanders actually wants to play for the brown
(10:00):
what well. The report says that they're questioning the legitimacy
of the injury. There is a story in Arizona, for example,
this week, where most people seem to think the Cardinals
and Kyler Murray are full of crap. That popular opinion
is he's not actually hurt, he's just his pride has hurt.
His small pride. He had, not big pride, because he's
(10:22):
a little fella. But he's upset because he got benched,
and he's sad and he just wants to play call
of duty for the next month. And the Cardinals are like, okay,
play call of duty for the next month, will bury
you on the injury list. Well, in Cleveland, it's a
bit of a different situation. The questions are being asked,
how could Shoulder Sanders have not one, not to but
three different injuries without playing? I am playing this year
(10:46):
and he's already had three different injuries? Question, does should
Sanders even want to play for the Browns? So we're
not in the mind of shouldar Sanders a talk show
to do? It sounds like gobblede gook when you first
hear it. Why would you not want to play? It
makes no sense to not want to play yet when
(11:08):
you pull back the brown curtain, how do you how
do you have three different injuries when you haven't really
played much at all and you practice, but you really
haven't done much at practice? Like what exactly did he do?
Did Shader Sanders pull a muscle when he bent down
to pick up his iPad? And maybe he dropped the
(11:29):
tablet on the floor and he went to grab it
and he pulled his back out like Dion's get when
you juxtaposed what he was like in college, he held
the ball for too long and got sacked a ton right,
kid was a crash test dummy at Colorado. I think
he was sacked fifty times in a season if I
remember correctly. I don't have it off the top of
(11:49):
my head, but I believe that was it. So he
kept getting hit and he kept getting up and now
suddenly not playing, just being a practice roster span player.
We're supposed to believe that Shadhu Sanders is now made
out of glass, that in Colorado getting hit all over
the place, he needed a juice box because he was
(12:11):
so beaten up. But he kept playing and all that stuff.
So it's things that make you go hmm, things that
make you go hmm, like, come on, Either these are
phantom injuries made up out of fin air, or the
other possibility is that Schaduur knows if he goes in,
(12:33):
he will suck, he will get clobbered, it will be bad,
and then the myth of Shoudar Sanders goes away. There's
a mythical element to this. He's like Johnny Appleseed or
something like that. It's it's the greatest gig. You're the
backup you don't play. Think how much more time should
Sanders has for social media because he's not playing. He's
(12:55):
got a lot of time there and everyone loves the
backup quarterback. Think of this like, there's a military term
for it. It's called malingering. Lingering pretending you're hurt so
you don't have to do your job in the military,
your tour of duty, whatever. Except in this case, he's
dodging a defensive line instead of a draft, and it's
(13:18):
very like his back's probably sore. It's sore not from playing,
from carrying around all the different camera lenses and all
the lighting and all that stuff. It's like, it's the
prime legacy episode you got to have all the right lighting.
And when you look at Jador Sanders and the scouting report,
it doesn't say great passer. It doesn't say that he's
(13:39):
a wonderful leader, It doesn't say that he's a great teammate.
It says that his power is as a social media
influencer wearing shoulder pads. That's it all right, now, last thing,
speaking of superpowers. We go to Jacksonville, Florida. Bad football
makes good talk radio. So someone named James Gladstone, someone
(14:01):
named James Gladstone. We are told that that is the
general manager of the team in Jacksonville. Take that for
what it's worth. So he scrapped together a couple of
moves that the deadline. Some people are hopping on the bandwagon.
Other people are like, what did you do? But the
big one, if you want to call it big all
Buffalo slipped into vacation mode, and the Patriots did as well.
(14:23):
Jacksonville went out made a trade with the Raiders for
wide receiver Jacoby Myers. The law firm Jacoby and Myers,
and so Jacoby Myers. According to James Gladstone, he said,
the player I just traded for from the Raiders has
a superpower now, what is his superpower? Does he have
X ray vision? Can he leap tall buildings in a
(14:43):
single mound? What is it? Is he bulletproof? Well, it
turns out that his superpower is his hands. He doesn't
drop past this Myers coming over from Vegas at the deadline.
He's not the greatest receiver. He's not the worst receiver
in the world. But according to the GM there, it's
(15:04):
all about the hand. Oh my hands. I have such
good hands. Look at my hand. You can't see my hand.
Look at that hand. That's a great hand. All right. Now,
the question is there a deeper meaning to the Jaguars
up selling Jacoby Myers and his superpower of not dropping passes?
(15:27):
So I use the malor Rosetta stone to translate. I've
been using it a lot lately. And this is not
an innocuous comment. This is not a benign comment. There's
a message in there. It's a two for one daily
double daily double, daily double, daily double, two for one
daily double. The first part is the general manager celebrating
(15:49):
the general manager, making it all about him, like I
did this. I traded for this guy. He doesn't drop
any passes. He's got a superpower. I might as well
have traded for Captain America or Batman, Oh my God,
or spider Man. This is big. His superpower Jacoby Myers
is he doesn't drop passes. And he didn't go to
(16:10):
the Steelers. He didn't go back to the Pages. He
came to Jacksonville. So that's the first part. The other
is the message. And when you're celebrating the new guy
for having a superpower of not dropping passes, you're also
taking a backhanded shot at Brian Thomas Junior BTJ, and
(16:33):
you're like, hey, hey, Brian, I know it's a popular
candy bar. Can you please not be a endorser of
butterfingers during the game, please? When you're playing football? Nine
drop passes for the former first round draft of Brian
Thomas Junior. Nine of them his hands. Unlike Jacoby Myers,
(16:53):
who if you look at him, according to the GM,
there has a superpower. If you look at the other guy,
the receiver here BTJ, Brian Thomas Jr. His hands are
like sticks of margarine in the Florida sun. That's what's like.
You don't go out of your way to celebrate catching
the football unless the rest of the room cannot do it,
(17:14):
and so this is absolutely a referendum on the entire
receiving group. The Jaguars lead the NFL. Congratulations twenty one
twenty one dropped passes twenty one of them. That you
cannot run a functioning offense with that many drop passes.
And it's not just the receivers that are screwing up.
(17:38):
Trevor Lawrence has been throwing what is often called the
hospital ball. Now, that's the type of throw that's high
or laid or over the middle, and the receiver has
to jump over the middle and put their body in
harm's way, thus likely ending up on a gurney and
(17:58):
being taken to the hospital in an ambulance. So he
throws a lot of hospital balls, and he's practically signing
the injury waifer for these guys at this point. Now,
regardless when your general manager is talking about the new
guy not dropping passes as a superpower. That's like bragging
that your car starts when you turn the key. I say, oh,
(18:20):
you want It's like texting your wife. You will not
believe this. I turned the car on and I hit
the little button. I didn't even turn the key because
it's got the button feature and it turned right on.
It's so good. If catching is a superpower, that's how
bad Jacksonville is. Well, when Jacoby Myers gets it, you
(18:40):
want to Betty drops two passes in the next game.
Here two passes in his next game for the Jags,
because that's kryptonite. Things are getting spicy in Douaal County.
A little passive, aggressive press conference energy from the general
manager there, and that's when you know that you're teetering
on the brink. You're tiptoeing on the brink. The whole
(19:02):
thing's going to come apart. And when they start giving
out compliments that sound like veiled threats, that is not
not a healthy team. That is a distress signal, is
what that is. It is the Ben Mahlor Show. If

like I feel like I got butterflies flying in my
stomach right now. You know what I'm saying is a
coffee to express those two energy drinks like an a
bong hit, like while I was on.

hold nine hours a day sometimes to do bits on
the radio. You know, sometimes I wait on hold months
to do bits in the radio.

Well, that is very very productive. It's very productive.
Speaker 5 (22:25):
And I'm I'm uh, you know, me and you we've
been friends for a long time. You know what I'm saying. Uh,
we like support each other. Dude. I got to tell
you one thing that Sarch scratch off call that was scary.
Like I used to not be intimidated by these truck drivers,
but recent news events with truck drivers man, and interacted
with some of these truckers on the show like I
(22:48):
had like a mental health EPITI last month and I
was maybe pushing it a little too far. I was
searching out beefs and some of these truck does, Man,
I will never beef with them. If you could hear
what sirch Scratch up with saying that, the anger in
his voice you know that driving is not easy and
being in the car all the time like that, you
know what I'm saying, Like that was scary, Like that
(23:09):
was a scary call. It made me kind of afraid.
Like didn't it make you guys scared?
Speaker 2 (23:15):
No, I've heard worse than that.
Speaker 5 (23:18):
You're not afraid. You're not afraid of You're never afraid
of people Like I walk around outside. I put my
cane down the sewer by mistake. The other day, I
broke two canes last month. This blind guy confronted me
and he said he said they shouldn't break. And we
stubbled it with Croc on the Twitter there and Greg said,
carbon fiber snaps really easy, dude. I had the fundraiser
(23:39):
because of my Snap benefit the social I shut it down.
People send me like so much money, Like this government
shutdown is unbelievable.
Speaker 2 (23:47):
Really, are you right now? I should have people send
me money. That's a good one.
Speaker 5 (23:51):
You never good twenty four dollars a month and Snap
benefits and you know, with the fundraiser became like eight
hundred dollars, you know what I'm saying.

I can just coming through coffee.
Speaker 2 (24:28):
I think you make I think you'd make more money
on government benefits and working for.
Speaker 6 (24:35):
True that that didn't make me curious, though, What was
the last job that you had, Scott, like an actual paycheck?
Speaker 5 (24:43):
I worked in the mail room for like seven and
a half years. But you had a couple of jobs
that they paid me those gift cards, those Amazon gift cards.
But I I like, I don't think I could actually
work because I got such fatter tity. I like to
stay near my home. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (24:59):
I will when you get a remote. You can get
a remote j I wn't work from your house or
something like that.
Speaker 5 (25:04):
You know, here's the problem. I have such a bad temper.
I will lash out with somebody, I will turn everybody
in the workforce against you.
Speaker 2 (25:10):
Every you have a bad temper, no way. I mean,
I have a stack of email from you saying the
most foul things I've human beings ever said to another
human being. I can't believe that you have a temper
like that. It blows me away.
Speaker 5 (25:24):
I gotta be careful, so like I can't. I don't
want to be arrested, you know what I'm saying. And
I want to have a prosperous life, So I got
to shelter myself. So do like an isolation type of thing.
But then when I'm ready to shine, I go out,
you stand up comedy and I celebrate. And people actually
do like to give me money. They like to give
me money. People do I do that because I talk
a lot on social media?
Speaker 2 (25:45):
You know, it's like you're getting getting only fans, that's
what everyone you know.
Speaker 5 (25:51):
No, I do I sell videos, thirty dollars videos, dude,
you know, I imagine people like to see my life
is so bad. It's like a crash course in life.
People will give me money because of it because I
post about it all the time. So I'm actually good
by that. But my family won't speak to me at
all for whatever reason, because they don't want to be
embarrassed by me. Because I got you.
Speaker 2 (26:11):
Are you very long? When you're not pausing? You know,
if you pause, I'm going to go away. But I
stopped you anyway because I would you just bogart the
rest of the show. To thank you the life and
times of blind Scott, who has said some really nasty
things over you. S let's go to hollering James in Minneapolis.
(26:32):
Me and us all to Hello, Hollering James.
Speaker 5 (26:35):
Tell chill, blind Scott. I want to make you a
loan for a grand I want to grant out of
blind Scott.
Speaker 2 (26:43):
What does that? What does that even mean? I don't
even know what you mean by that.
Speaker 5 (26:46):
That means a thousand dovers?
Speaker 2 (26:50):
Okay, I'll call him right now. You want to give
him a thing?
Speaker 1 (26:53):
You know what?
Speaker 5 (26:56):
Tom, Mike de Lepper, Loser Khan.
Speaker 2 (26:58):
I like what he said, Mike the loser. His name
is the Loser con that's his name.
Speaker 3 (27:07):
It is.
Speaker 6 (27:10):
Man.
Speaker 5 (27:10):
I have a question for you, what did you really
think about coming out of the wings.
Speaker 2 (27:17):
Well, he came out of the wings. You got to
call him by his real name. When he plays. His
name is nine. His name is nine. Yeah, yeah, that's right, James.
I'm assuming you want to be part of Factor fiction.
Is that correct, James? You always like to be part
of that, right, all right, I'll put you I'm gonna
(27:39):
put you on hold. All right, I'll put you on hold.
We'll get back to you later. Factor Fiction. So imagine
being rage baited as a professional athlete with a massive
amount of money coming away and being motivated because somebody
was trash talking. We take it out of the NBA
Spider Mitchell Donovan's Mitchell of the Cleveland Cavaliers revealed, Now
(28:04):
he went out, he had a massive game last night.
There were twelve people watching, but he had a massive
forty six point game against the Sixers. And so he's like, well,
you've been around a long time, it's a regular season game.
You know, you're a good player and all that, But
what the hell happened there? Like, what was that all about?
And he said that he was motivated. He spent a
(28:26):
couple of hours in the afternoon. Imagine how tough, what
a tough life this is. So your professional athlete and
you have so much free time that you have hours
to play NBA two K, and he's on there and
some he don't know whether it's a young person or
old person, somebody is calling him washed up, and essentially
(28:48):
the guy's at bumm, you know that kind of thing.
And so he was going back and forth. He told
the stories, like going back to this guy's trolling him,
and he went out and so I'm gonna show this guy.
And then he scored forty six points. And it's not
one hundred points, so it's not eighty points, but forty
(29:09):
six is a pretty good amount of points to score
in an NBA game. And it's it's always amusing to
me these guys, the amount of money that they make.
Like Mitchell's on a one hundred and fifty million dollar
contract with the Cleveland Cavaliers, and yet he's motivated by
some Dodo bird playing NBA two K in the afternoon.
(29:30):
It's just it's it's wild. So if I was the
coach of the Cavaliers, what I would do is I
would just go every afternoon, I would go on NBA
two K, and I would then harass Spider Mitchell. I'd
be like, all right, Donovan, you're a douche. You're Donovan
the douche and just go through that and all the
guy's made almost two hundred million dollars playing basketball and
(29:52):
he's motivated by some dope on on the the X Machine. Anyway,
it is the Ben Maler Shows. Go down to a
man who's been very patient, and it has a lot
to say regarding the quarterbacks. Paul in Ottawa, Hello, Paul, Welcome, Paul,
Hey Ben.
Speaker 3 (30:07):
First, I should tip my hat to your LA Dodgers
for defeating our Blue Jays up here. I think we
can agree though that it was a memorable series, quite competitive.
Speaker 2 (30:20):
And that was great. It was great. Bud just had
the Dodgers on the ropes they did.
Speaker 3 (30:25):
But as far as the quarterbacks, for some reason, when
I think about guys like Kyler Murray and Deshaun Watson
and they get all this money, and it makes me
angry that they then become I'm kind of indifferent and
kind of they kind of disappear and it interests me.
(30:46):
I don't know their full answer to this, but some
guys get paid like Patrick Mahomes and he just he
plays every game as though he's trying out for the team,
and he If you don't saw the Buffalo Kansas City game,
and it's almost as though he got hit on every play.
He throws the ball and gets hit and he lands
(31:08):
and I don't know how he gets out of bed
on Monday morning. But it takes me back to a
movie I saw in the nineteen eighties. I think it
was called All American or something, and Dennis Quaid plays
a running back who wins the Heisman in college. Then
he gets to the pros and he has a more
difficult time, But at the end of his career he says,
(31:30):
you know, I didn't play this game for money, and
didn't play for this or for that. I played because
I loved it.
Speaker 2 (31:39):
And I think, well, that definitely that works in the movies.
It doesn't work in real life, though. See that's the
problem you've got. As you know, Paul, human beings are
involved in all that. The other factor with a lot
of these guys is they were never that good. It's
just teams have this fomo. It's fear of missing out.
They're like they, yeah, the Dolphins, the Dolphins knew that
(31:59):
too was not great. The Cardinals knew that Kyler Murray
wasn't the guy. But they're like, well, we gotta pay
him because someone else is gonna pay him. And then
what if we let Kyler Murray go and he goes
to like the you know, the Cowboys and lights the
world on fire or something. Well, we'll never be we'll
never be forgiven. And so that's Trevor Lawrence is a
great example. Trevor Lawrence was supposed to be good. He's
(32:21):
never been that good in the NFL. But Jacksonville they like,
we have to keep him. He's going to be fine.
They've gone through coaches and teammates and the guy stinks
whoever he plays with. So anyway, Ig, yeah, that's it,
Thank Youboud. Let's go to Cowboy John Brad. We stay
in Canada. We go to Windsor, Ontario, Canada, and a
(32:42):
fine Canadian lad, Cowboy John Brad.
Speaker 7 (32:45):
Oh Hi Ben Well nineteen sixties singer PJ. Proby's eighty
seven today and forty four years ago today. Heavyweight champion
Larry Holmes was seventy six on Monday. They got about
the cambus of the seventh round right hand and stopped
(33:05):
challenger Ronaldo's Nights in the eleventh round, and Holmes had
done the very same thing the seventh round knockdown and
rising to stop on the late Ernie Shavers to retain
the heavyweight title. September twenty eighth, nineteen seventy nine, yesterday,
Herman Hermott's frontman with seventy eight Peter Noon, Herman Hermit's
(33:32):
being a British invasion band from the sixties like the Beatles,
because they were a lot was successful of course, and
Bill Walton would have been seventy three yesterday. And on

We don't mind it where he goes, the one on
only cowboy John Brad calling talk radio since the nineteen sixties.
