How do you do it? Will fire the cannons? Here
an hour number four, Hour number four. Does Joe Burrow
sound like a guy who's about to quit the NFL?
Some audio of Burrow and it did not sound very
happy on his twenty ninth birthday? Also, could he end
(00:20):
up with the Rams? We'll talk about that. Speaking of
the Rams, do you believe Davante Adams is going to
retire from the La Rams if Matthew Stafford does at
the end of the year and the NFL draft is
chopping time down between first round picks? Is this a
big deal, a little deal or no deal? We're going
to answer that for the NFL right now. Have a

(03:18):
crown is yours. So the biggest scandal going today is
in college football at Michigan, Sharon Moore had a really
bad day, a really bad day. He woke up as
the coach of the Michigan Wolverines. By the end of
the day he had been fired for cause, likely losing
out on fourteen million dollars. He also ended up in
(03:39):
police custody. Yeah, that's that's a day. That's a data
remember or a data forget. We'll circle back to that later.
But our lead this hour is from Cincinnati, where the
Chile is supposedly good, although Justin in Cincinnati tells me
it's not. And the football we know is bad, bad, bad, bad,
(04:03):
bad to the bone. So the Ben Goals are not
heading to the playoffs. However, they are creating some content
which is more important their content creators, the Ben Gals.
If you've not heard, perhaps not not his birthday week
for their quarterback. Twenty ninth birthday for Joe Burrow. The
(04:23):
Ben Gals quarterback Joe Burrow, and he decided to do
some self reflection on the sad sack Bengals. He was
asked about everything going on and things aren't going that
great during his weekly news conference in Burrow was in
a very reflective state of mind on the vibe that
he has and what's been going on this year. And
(04:45):
so rather than me just read the quotes of Joe Burrow,
we have the audio tape. So let's go to the
audio tip. Here's Joe Burrow looking deep, deep into the
inner part of his mind.
Speaker 4 (04:59):
I don't keep doing this. I have to have fun
doing it. You know, I've been through a lot and
if it's not fun.
Speaker 5 (05:05):
Then what am I doing?
Speaker 1 (05:05):
It for all right, Short and sweet, Short and sweet,
Play again, pay, I'm gonna hear one more time, play
again play.
Speaker 4 (05:12):
I do want to keep doing this. I have to
have fun doing it.
Speaker 6 (05:15):
You know.
Speaker 4 (05:16):
I've been through a lot and if it's not fun,
then what am I doing it for?
Speaker 1 (05:19):
All Right? So you here Joe Burrow. There the tone.
He had some other things to say, but that's the
money quote. So some fans are thinking, well, that sounded
like a guy that's at the very end of his
rope and is on the verge of retiring at the
end of the year, just like Andrew Luck, and he's
just gonna leave. Of course, Andrew Luck quit two weeks
before the season. If Joe Burrow retires at the end
(05:41):
of the year, that's fine. I don't want to play
football anymore, that's fine. That's a good jumping off point.
You don't wait two weeks before next season to retire, Okay,
don't do the Andrew Luck. That's a that's a dick move,
all right, So let us discuss the question. Does Joe
Burrow sound like a guy who's about to quit the NFL?
So I've got flea market, cheesy Gordita and plastic surgery.
(06:07):
And we're gonna combine all of these things together and
we're gonna make a doggy bag of baba ganoosh and
in another doggy bag, it's more of like a Chinese
takeout box. Uh, And we're gonna have the gaba Ghul,
which is odd because it's Italian, but we're gonna just
just go with it. Just go with it, all right,
not to kick off here. Based on a minutes long
(06:27):
deliberation of the available audio of Joe Burrow and the
tone and all that, I have determined that this is
grade A Diva, Grade A DIVA capital D diva soul searching.
We are talking about land O Lakes emotional buttered churning,
(06:48):
So we should get the world's smallest violin out and
all that stuff. It's not supposed to be fun. That's
why they call it work. Now, you're lucky enough to
have an NFL job, and even if you're bad and
the Bengals are bad, it's still better than most jobs. Right,
you took the bag. The other thing is he took
(07:10):
a bag was an orange bag two hundred and seventy
five million dollars. That's monopoly money. You knew everyone knew,
every man, woman and child knew that Cincinnati is a
roach motel of a franchise. That is how they have operated.
They're a roach motel, and that's how they do things.
(07:31):
You check in with hope, and you check out with
regret covered in cockroaches. And after again a brief deliberation
and investigation, we connected the dots here and here's what
I came up with. And I workshop this and I
want to see if you agree with me or not.
So it sounds to me like Joe Berry, he's not
going to retire. You don't walk away from that kind
(07:53):
of dough. You don't do that. Only a dummy would
do that, right, So it sounds like Joe Burrow wants
out with saying he wants out now. Remember he played
GM by proxy. He was out there campaigning demanding that
the Bengals pay t Higgins. They paid T Higgins. You
gotta pay Jamar Chase. They paid Jamar Chase. You gotta
(08:14):
do this. So they did almost everything he wanted. And
the team in pirate terminology, you'd say their she blues
Joe Burrow, who's right in the middle of his athletic prime.
I don't believe he's retiring. He's planting a seed. He's planting.
(08:35):
See he's a farmer. He is fed up, and he said,
I want to win. Everyone says they want to win.
He doesn't want to plot away in the Twilight Zone
with the Bengals. So if you look in to the
Malar crystal ball, and you look into that crystal ball,
and we purchased it from a flea market on Rodeo Drive,
(08:55):
they've never had those before. They just had him flea
market on Rodeo Drive. And what I'm feeling is the
big T energy, not Big D energy, Big T energy
as in trade capital T trade. In the multiverse, there
is a world here. There is a world I know.
(09:15):
No Stradinas is not gonna like this, and some of
these other clowns are gonna get all upset. Terry and
England will be annoyed, or Nesto in the Bay will
not be happy. Here's the Alome to lose. Is not
gonna like this either. There's a world where Joe Burl
he's not gonna leave the NFL because there's so much
money that he's got coming to him. However, in the multiverse,
(09:39):
who's to say he doesn't force his way on the
LA Rams. Who says, no, how about Joe Burrow wearing
a Ram uniform next year? Now, Matthew Stafford, this Ram
team as good as anyone to win the Super Bowl.
This year is the RAM team rides into the Super
Bowl in the Bay Area there and rides off Stafford,
a champion, into the sunset and fade to block. That's it.
(10:00):
LA has not won but two first round picks. And
by the way, the Atlanta Falcons pick is a top
ten pick in the draft. So that's the foundation of
a pretty big trade. So Stafford leaves Sean McVay wants
a new shiny toy at quarterback, although he's been around
for a while. And Joe Burrow can have fun because
(10:22):
he'll win because the Rams are winners, not losers like
the Bengals. So you go to the Rams, and if
I'm the LA Rams, I would say fm picks, I
would trade both first round picks this year. I'd say
I'd trade a third first round pick and two second
round picks. I trade five picks to get Joe Burrow
and I'd have him as my quarterback going forward after
(10:43):
this year. Who would not do that? The Bengals would
probably do that because they'd save money and then they
could trade Jamar Chase and t Higgins. Also, furthermore, speaking
of those Rams wide receiver Devonte Adams, he said, but
it was kind of a joke, kind of series. That
is when he recently told quarterback Matthew Stafford that he's
(11:05):
going to quit football whenever Mat Oh, do we have
gremlins here on site today? Gremlins? Ben?
Speaker 7 (11:19):

Speaker 1 (11:21):

Speaker 6 (11:24):

this show eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox, also
on ex at Ben Mallor that's at Ben Maller. You
(13:25):
can say a lood to Lorena FSR Tech Queen high Bell,
do not talk to me. I told you that. And
Cooper Loop at a Bronco fan And there was some
erroneous reports that the gremlins attack the remote studio. I
am happy to report that I am bunkered in the
remote studio. The gremlins did not attack. I heard everything
that happened all the new the gremlins, and it was
(13:47):
on the side of the main studio that was attacked,
not here, And we think it was the cockroaches. Ferg
Dog says it wasn't. If it wasn't for the gremlins,
I think you were well on your way to winning
a Marconi you were on a roll man. Well, I
did work at a station. One of my nicknames is
Marconi Maler. I did work on a station that did
(14:10):
win the Marconi Award years ago. Justin in Cincinnati says,
that's what you get for that ridiculous Joe Burrow monologue.
That's not ridiculous, Ryan says, La Rams trade for Joe
Burrow two first round picks, a third in next year's draft,
a fourth, and twenty twenty eight at first round in
twenty forty five. Joe Burrow Andrew Whitworth has been on
(14:34):
the phone with Joe. He says, there you go, all right,
very nice. I did want to rant for a couple
of minutes. I was going to get to this and
I was rudely interrupted by the gremlins, and I don't
like that. It saw very nice of them. So I
saw this thing about the NFL Draft. The Giants are
on the clock. They as of now, would have the
number one overall pig in the twenty twenty sixth draft,
(14:58):
which is of course subject to change. If the Chants
were to win a game this weekend, that would mess
things up. So the draft, which is also subject to change.
We learned the NFL will reduce the first round draft
pick time from ten minutes to eight minutes in twenty
twenty six Now. The goal they claim is to shorten
(15:20):
the overall length of the product, cause just like everything else,
people's attention spans are not are not there, and so
they they're worried about their East Coast audience and people
leaving the draft because those picks that pick twenty eight,
twenty nine, thirty thirty one, and thirty two are so important,
(15:41):
all right, so important. So the initial reaction on this
has been largely positive, right to streamline draft experience and
all that. So the question here is the NFL draft
chopping time between the first round picks. Is this a
big deal, a little deal, or no deal? And so
(16:01):
the NFL, I just want to ran about this for
a minute, because the NFL wants you to believe, based
on what I was consuming, that this is some kind
of radical reform that shaving two minutes off the first
round each first round pick is like, it's like a
moon landing moment that the NFL's come up with. And
(16:21):
it's just ridiculous to me. It's no deal. It's not
even a tiny deal. This is the NFL trimming its
eyebrows and announcing that they had some plastic surgery. Well,
you didn't have plastic surgery, had your eyebrows trimmed? And
here's the dirty little cigaret. The NFL they hope that
you They don't want you to mention this, certainly not
(16:44):
on sports radio. The entire draft, and I learned this
a number of years ago. The entire draft experience exists
in a parallel dimension. Well, what are you talking about?
What is the illuminati involved. To me, explain, So we
now know that the draft goes on at one speed
and the broadcast goes on on another speed, meaning teams
(17:06):
have already made their picks way in advance of the
pick being announced on television. The insiders already know the picks,
and they're told because they work for the broadcast partners,
they're under the NFL umbrella. They're not allowed to talk
about it. So your television, your precious portal into the
(17:27):
full football multiverse. There, it's usually a couple of picks behind,
a couple of picks behind, operating onto delay big enough
to drive the malormobile through. And this isn't a sporting
event obviously, it's just a bunch of people calling names out.
But remember it's a loosely scripted TV shows choreographed like
(17:47):
a halftime Red Panda routine. The woman on the tricycle
or whatever it is, there's not tric she's very talented,
but the fake suspense baked into it, the artificial drug,
the Roger Goodell hugging the high fives? What are they wearing?
Behind the green room A bunch of oversized human beings
(18:10):
greeting their long lost relatives that will then beg them
for money the next five to ten years. You made
that NFL money. Remember your aunt, pay your aunt, pay
your uncle. Remember that seventh cousin cousin you have. You
got to pay that person too. And so I would
like the real chaos plane. I would like the real
cast plan, the mald plant. How about just ninety seconds.
(18:33):
Ninety seconds. Make the general managers and the nerds with
all their computer models and all that stuff, make them
try to catch the l It's like trying to catch
the if you're ever in at Costco on a Saturday
afternoon and they've got the tray of those little taquitos
that are cut in half, and it's like piranha with
(18:58):
blood in the water. Gotta be very quick to get
that sample before that tray runs dry. And if you're
not quick, you get nothing. You get nothing. That would
be a great cliffhanger. And until then, the NFL just
kind of cutting paper with kind of like justin in
Cincinnati does it night, you know, kindergarten scissors, and you
know calling that some kind of innovation, it's not some
(19:20):
kind of innovation, it's just it's kind of silly. It's
kind of silly is what that is. That's just the
reality of the situation. Super Marcus Steeves says, I cannot
believe Ben, you want Joe Burrow on the Rams. Why
would that be so he can get hurt and miss
half the season. Then again, you were the guy who
(19:41):
was trumpeting a Kawhi Leonard to the Clippers, so there
you must love people that need time up. Well, the
Clippers did make the Final Four with Kawhi Leonards. So
the greatest moment in Clipper history happened. Let's go to
the phones and we'll say hello to Blind Scott. Who's next?
He low, Blind Scott, Welcome on the North end of Boston.
Speaker 4 (20:01):
Hey, what's going on? Yeah, that's a pretty good story,
that Joe Burrows story. I heard that it's a pretty
good place to see a game in Cincinnati, So like,
maybe I would go there for a meet and greet.
If I al burned my security team with medel to
protect me when I'm there.
Speaker 1 (20:16):
You're not gonna go to since then every time we
have a meet and greet, you call up, I'm gonna go.
I got we were in Vancouver, I got flights, we
were in Vegas. I'm gonna go to Vegas. You never go.
The only ones we go. The only time you go
to a meet and greet Scott is when I'm literally
across the street from your home at Bova's Bakery. That's it.
Speaker 9 (20:34):
Yeah, that was great.
Speaker 6 (20:35):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (20:36):
So I talked to them at Bova and told them
they were overcharging me, and they said they're going to
help me out. And you know, things are getting cheaper,
and that's good because you can overcharge me. But dude,
I have my whole Christmas album of singing that I
did like yesterday actually, and I have all these other
great things I've been doing. I went like all these
(20:57):
bits on the radio that have been going really well
for me. I've been taking this new medication actually just
kicking in now. It's working really good. But I'll go
like a wikiped stomach cake. So I'm feeling pretty good.
I got a new I started a new job today.
I feel like dog crap, I've been away time.
Speaker 1 (21:12):
You getting a job? Really? What kind of job you work?
Speaker 10 (21:16):
Well?
Speaker 4 (21:16):
I mean I just posted the YouTube chats, so now
you know, like like you know, like a YouTube chat,
but yeah, touch and how you show I post in that?
I don't think it pays nothing.
Speaker 1 (21:28):
But one guess on my YouTube channels, you should do
that too.
Speaker 4 (21:31):
Yeah, I won't do that. I thought about that. I
just got into so I just learned how to post
on YouTube just in the past and lay So I've
been posting the YouTube chat every day. I touched how
you and I've seen some of your fans in there,
and with this guy named Big Wayne from Colorado was
in there. You know what I mean, dude, So I
see your YouTube too, but you don't have the chat
(21:51):
underneath where we can all talk amongst each other. You know.
Speaker 1 (21:54):
Well, it's not a live Yeah, it's not live, but
there's some chatter. Maybe next year there'll be something live.
Who knows.
Speaker 4 (22:01):
You know, it's tough for this bunch here because we
all don't get along. So we're gonna learn how to
get along and live with each other. But it's hard
because I'm the biggest star on this show and I
got passed over by a homeworks guy. And I don't
mind doing in problem with homeo hippy guys that smoke
crack and do dope their whole bites and lose their
teeth and they come on here and think they live
(22:21):
in Miami. And I gotta give people a fight.
Speaker 1 (22:24):
Are you biing mean? You're big mean again? What's wrong
with you?
Speaker 4 (22:27):
I did enjoy the mic the leper Chaun song, though,
that put me into Christmas period, you know.
Speaker 1 (22:32):
Like, what are you going to send your songs in?
Scott will play your blind Scott Christmas songs?
Speaker 4 (22:38):
They're on, They're on. I just did him yesterday. They're
touch and hardy play them at eight am.
Speaker 1 (22:43):
There was like three we don't we don't want recycled bits.
We want our own bits. We don't want you know, respect.
Speaker 4 (22:50):
I had to have a stand into them, like for me,
you know what I mean, because I was too stressed
in the studio. I got real stressed out, you know,
and then it doesn't seem like anybody wants to talk
to me on a personal level outside of you know,
the old weight on. Hold real quick, we'll get right
back to your type of deal.
Speaker 11 (23:10):
You know.
Speaker 1 (23:10):
Yeah, you're looking for an emotional connection on a radio show,
is what you're looking for?
Speaker 4 (23:16):
It was, oh, yeah, you're not supposed to do that. Actually,
like do not. I've been giving out parenting advice to
people on the network on the radio, and it's actually
not going that great, and I've been told actually the stuff,
but I think I can give out good parent advice.
And I hurt from my dad. I hadn't heard from
him in like six years since we did that fight.
And I tried to throw the brick through his cardwood
(23:37):
and rip up all his plants, and I went, you know,
just nut to fuck Wilder. And then the police they
had one tough on me, and they were trying to
hard time me down and everything. And you know, glad
those days are in the past.
Speaker 1 (23:47):
And should you should have been able to run faster,
that's your probably didn't run faster. I got to go.
Thank you, blind Scot. Let's say hello to supermarket Steve.
Who's next, Hello, Supermarket Steve. Welcome.
Speaker 8 (23:57):
So the other yesterday you brought a I was trying
to accuse LeVar or anything stealing something from Marcel.
Speaker 1 (24:05):
You accused you accused LaVar Arrington of stealing the chicken
parmesana line.
Speaker 8 (24:11):
He did not, he said.
Speaker 4 (24:13):
With the extra pharmigan and the.
Speaker 8 (24:16):
Way he said it, it sounded a little like love Marcel.
And I'm not trying to start a feud. I'm not
like like that. I actually kind of you.
Speaker 1 (24:24):
You've always been like that. You've always been a trouble maker.
Speaker 7 (24:27):
Oh no.
Speaker 8 (24:27):
The only one I ever tried to start a few
was was with with with Fast, say, because he's a
d bag and Lvar seems like an actually decent guy,
like and and a hard working man, and Fast he
just seems like a loser who I can't stand there
talking about how how us people at night aren't worth it.
Speaker 1 (24:46):
Well he's not.
Speaker 10 (24:47):
He's not.
Speaker 1 (24:47):
He's not a loser. He's just you know, he's so
far up the Dodgers tuckas he can't see the sun.
That's the problem.
Speaker 8 (24:54):
So yeah, I mean and and and when you had
that job, but you never did that, And that's why
you don't have my job anymore, because that's true.
Speaker 1 (25:01):
I would I really screwed up. So if I actually
was critical And you're never supposed to do that on
a postgame show. You're only supposed to sell sunshine. You
sell sunshine, rainbows, lollipops and puppy dogs. Uh and and
that's all those postgames. I don't even consume that stuff
because it's all crap. It's all just Propaganda's what it is.
I don't need that.
Speaker 8 (25:23):
Weren't you doing that during the Frank McCord.
Speaker 1 (25:27):
No, actually, no, well he no, I did it when
I was actually there when O'Malley sold the team to
to Fox uh and they owned it. So yeah, I.
Speaker 8 (25:40):
Was I was gonna give you credit for getting rid
of that loser too, but I guess no, I'm sorry, Okay.
Speaker 1 (25:46):
Hang up on you. So I did. Frank McCourt when
he was losing control of the Dodgers, he dragged me
into his office. I'd never been in the owner's office
at Dodgers Stadium, and he made this case about how
he's a good owner, and you know, he gave all
these like charitable things and this other crap that he'd done.
And I I listened to it and I walked out
(26:08):
and that was it. Anyway, I's go back the phones.
Let's see what do we have her any meany miny moe.
Let's say hello to helm mit man, Hello, helmet man, Welcome.
Speaker 12 (26:21):

I never been. I don't know if I'll ever get there.
Maybe I will, maybe I won't, who knows, probably not
you never. Now let's go to Mojo Rising. Hello Mojo
Rising in the Bay Area. Check in, Hello Mojo A.
Speaker 9 (29:48):
Break calm through to the ben mallor show. The words
will always slow. So here we go, Oh great creator
of being granted one more hour to perform our heart
and perspect our lives. You live, you diet? That's not
in kid? Why hello, mister Ben, Happy holidays to you
and the lovely Loraina the gym that she is. And
Coop the Loop, the Broncos fan, who hey, his Broncos
(30:09):
are way better than advertised. I mean they're on to
take a winning streak. They got the best record in
the NFL. Like I told him when he answered the phone,
I really believe they have a legitimate chance to actually
go to the Super Bowl and win it all, you know,
unlike the Creddy Creuddy Raiders. Which I thought then that
the Raiders had the first pick overall, but you just
said earlier that it's the Giants, So.
Speaker 1 (30:31):
What's Yeah, the Giants. Raiders would have the number two
pick based on the the winning opponents winning percentage, The
Tybery Giants would be one, Vegas would be two, and
Tennessee would be number three.
Speaker 9 (30:44):
Well here's the thing, mister Ben. In a couple of
weeks we actually play the Giants head to head, So
I guess that's going to determine everything, isn't it That
game will be.
Speaker 1 (30:54):
That game will be three three, nothing will be that game,
It'll be three nothing.
Speaker 9 (30:58):
Well, there you go. And if the Raiders get the
first overall pick, which you're a knowledge of a preffler
of knowledge, I know you know this. The last time
the Raiders had the first overall pick, they had Jibustis Russell,
who set the Raiders franchise back ten years. I mean,
like I said, I've said it before on air, mister Benn,
that the Raiders have the worst. They don't even have
a home field advantage every team, just like last week,
(31:18):
all you see was a sea orange in Vegas. It
is a true disgrace as a Raider fan, a lifetime
Raider fan, to see this. You know, when the Autumn
Wind used to be in Oakland, when they literally had
a home field advantage. The black Hole. The craziest fans
in the world, really, the diasard fans in the world.
You know, I believed Silver and sweat black. So I mean,
it's just crazy, man. But anyway, one other thing I'd
(31:40):
like to address real fast too, been is the Warriors.
They this window that they think they have was Jimmy
Jimmy Buckston, Curry and Draymond. It's over many. They're not
going to win this this this year. You know, It's like,
come on, Draymond is a turnover machine. I hate to
say it.
Speaker 5 (31:53):
Now.
Speaker 9 (31:53):
The Kurr Steve Kerr is not a great coach anymore.
He's got this problem with kaminga which I don't know,
Like he's a young kids, like the only good player
they have, but he just wants to constantly be in
the doghouse.
Speaker 4 (32:04):
I don't know what it does.
Speaker 1 (32:06):
Peer, it doesn't appear right now, Mojo Rising. This is
all just Oklahoma City. It's just like light years ahead
of everyone. So, like, what are we doing here? I
watched the Thunder played the Suns. I had that on
because there were only two games, and I had something
on the background. I was watching that game and the
Thunder were up by like forty something points in the
(32:30):
third quarter. It was insane. It by fifty at one point.
It was crazy.
Speaker 9 (32:35):
So they're obviously going to break the record. I say,
they only lose no more than maybe seven games, and
I think they absolutely will repeat.
Speaker 1 (32:45):
Well assuming that so, assuming SGA doesn't get hurt or
something like that. But yeah, A thank you the great
mojo rising from the Bay area there checking in. We
thank him on that calling in. I saw that Mike Rabol,
your Patriots coach, is this is like a big storyline,
the Patriots underdogs at home against the Buffalo Bills, and
(33:09):
oh my god, this is like the great injustice of
the world. And based on the line I'm looking at now,
they've adjusted the line and it does appear that that
game's a pick them, which is still not great, but
it's a pick them in anyone's game and all that. So,
(33:31):
but remember people don't understand that aren't gamblers. The sports
book sets the opening line. It's the public, the gambling public,
that establishes the final line. And in theory, if everything's kosher,
which it apparently is not with people fixing outcomes of events,
but assuming it is on the up and up, then
(33:52):
the house will win. As long as there's even money
on both sides. They'll take the juice, the vague they
call it, and they'll smile and make their money and
that's it. And if the action is not balanced, they
will adjust it. But in a perfect world, the sportsbooks
would have no interest in who wins the game or
(34:12):
who loses and all that. They wouldn't sweat the results
at all, because it's all about the viig and that's
how you earn your profits. And that's it. And vig
is short for vigoroush or. People call the juice the
house edge that is baked into that which is supposed
to be less than five percent, although sometimes these days
(34:33):
it is much higher than that spat job by them.
I need some judges. We are gonna have fact or fiction.
And I promise you, if the Patriots beat the Bills
on Sunday, it's gonna be they didn't believe in us,
We were the underdogs, and disrespect and all that. Of course,
if the Patriots lose to the Buffalo Bills, we won't
(34:53):
hear anything about it. If you want to be one
of my judges for factor fiction, call right now. Eight
seven seven nine six six three six nine. That's the number.
We are gonna have it. In a moment, fact or fiction.
We'll get to that. We'll do it next.
