Speaker 1 (00:00):
Holy cow. As we play hide and seek in our
number fall.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
Hour number four is at your audio door, And oh
what a finish it was between the Lions and the Steelers.
Speaker 1 (00:16):
Came down to the very end.
Speaker 2 (00:17):
Detroit looked like they had scored a game winning touchdown,
but there was a penalty, in fact, a couple of
penalties to end that game. What were Dan Campbell's Lions
thinking at the end of their loss to Pittsburgh? Speaking
of the Steelers, they get to win. Wide receiver dk
Metcalf went viral. He took a swipe at a Lions
fan during the game. How do you appraise that one?
(00:41):
And Brown's quarterback Sheer Sanders snapping back at a reporter
for trying to pin him against head coach Kevin Stefanski.
Is that what this was about? We'll discuss that as well,
and a whole lot more right here, right now, it's
out work number four.
Speaker 1 (01:01):
Have a wonderful, wonderful Monday. Here it is.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
Well, it looked good for a while, It looked good
for a while. Wel come in the beginning of another.
Speaker 1 (01:16):
Hour of The Ben Mallard Show.
Speaker 2 (01:17):
As we are in the air emy where.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
I gotta hit this watch McAll it say, I gotta
hit this. I'm gonna do this right here as.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
We are the Musketeers, the Mallard Musketeers of.
Speaker 1 (01:32):
The Overnight is what we are. That's right. What is
a Mallard musketeer? I don't really know what a Mallard
musketeer is.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
But we are coast to coast, border to border and
beyond on the vast and colossally powerful microphones of fs
are Emma Nating live from the Iron, the grid Iron
of the Overnight, on the world famous Fox Sports Radio Studios. Now,
Sir scratch Off says, can you tell me about tire Rack? Yes,
I can scratch off in Arkansas. For over forty years,
(02:03):
tyre Rack has been helping customers like just Josh and
Jayscoop find 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
tireak dot com.
Speaker 1 (02:25):
The way tire buying should be. Now.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
The black irishman who lives in Omaha, he's the guy
that sent me that nice Creighton blue Jay's hat, unless
I'm still waiting for that, but he knows that it's
all about Haleyon and I also saw over the weekend
of the Fifth Hour podcast.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
I believe at some point we got a message from
from our guy at Fergdog who's a big fan of Haleion.
Speaker 2 (02:45):
But every goal starts with an assist on and off
the field. That's why Haleyon and US Soccer are launching
for the Assist, a celebration of everyday acts of support
that help people achieve their goals with iconic brands like Centinni, Toms,
voltaan Anville, and Syndrome. To learn more, go to haleyon

(03:26):
Crown is.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
Yours and our lead store. Lead story this.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
Hour from Motown where the Detroit football team they were
this close a couple of years ago from going to
the Super Bowl. They had the lead in the second
half and then it all went away. It all went
away against the forty nine ers, and they assumed their
window was wide open. You know what happened When you assume,
(03:53):
sometimes you find out you're in the boonies and they're
in the booties right now. And that is where we
go finishing the day. If you saw it, you know
what I'm talking about. If not Jared Goff, it looked
like he had thrown the pass to win the game,
and no it did not. And then afterwards Jared Goff
and Dan Campbell refusing to blame the referees as the
(04:15):
Lions were penalized not once but twice in the final
twenty two seconds of what turned out to be at
twenty nine to twenty four loss to the Insurers from Pittsburgh,
PA in the Game of the Day on Sunday, with
each flag the gating what would have been the go
ahead touchdown. Now, Dan Campbell gave the rather generic response postgame,
(04:39):
he said, we we Well, rather let me tell you
what he said.
Speaker 1 (04:43):
Let's go to Dan Campbell. Here's Dan Campbell in his
own words.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
I was gonna do my cosplay as Dan Campbell, but
let's hear from the man of the hour.
Speaker 1 (04:50):
Here's the coach of the Lions.
Speaker 3 (04:52):
I mean I don't even want to get into it,
you know, because it's not gonna change anything. We still lost,
you know, it's you know, I mean, look, do you
think you score, you don't score, and then you know,
you think you're going to have another play, replay it
or back it up and one more shot, and it doesn't.
And that's just I guess that's the way it's written
in a rule book. So that's frustrating. But there again,
(05:16):
it should never come to that. We had our opportunities.
We weren't able to put it in before that play.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
All right, so we weren't able to close it out essentially,
is what he said. This is good jumping off point.
Jared Golf also had similar comments. They must have consulted
with each other post game.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
So let's discuss the question what were Dan Campbell's Lions
thinking at the end of this game? Like seriously, like
what was going on here at the end of this game?
So on this one, we've got flow right at blender
(05:53):
Blender and in addition to that, if that was not
enough for you, barbed wire and we will combine all
of these things together for that magical moment.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
It's going to be a magical moment.
Speaker 2 (06:05):
Now to lead off here the Lions, I'm using my
psycho babble that I've learned from years of doing overnight
talk radio. The Lions thought they were playing hoops, not basketball.
That's my theory, right, because in the NBA, what is
always the case in the NBA, late game mayhem. It
(06:25):
comes with a hush order silence. The referee is supposed
to swallow the whistle. They're supposed to cross their arms
and let stars decide the ending of games.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
It's like it's an.
Speaker 2 (06:39):
Indie film festival or something like that. The NFL is
a whole different carnival. The Zebras don't mind meddling.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
If you don't believe me.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
Ask Pooka Nakool. He'll tell you right there, Pooka. They
thrive on it.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
Detroit went full pickup run at the end of this game.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
They had to pick here a nudge there. He's a
tesla said he's a rookie.
Speaker 1 (07:03):
Good name, although it's not. It's an extra like a
in there.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
But he set a screen like he was like freeing
up a shooter in the NBA got penalized for that.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
I'm on ross.
Speaker 2 (07:15):
Saint Brown gave a little shove, not much of a shove,
but a little shove.
Speaker 1 (07:18):
Nothing egregious, nothing scandalous.
Speaker 2 (07:21):
But the referee said, wait a minute, we can't have that,
and no blink, no mercy, no let them play, Let
the players decide the game. The referees went flow Rider.
They that's an old school song. They cranked up the
whistle song to max volume. Is what they did there.
And Campbell took the blame. As you heard, we played
the sound bite there, which is a noble thing to do,
(07:43):
very on brand for Dan Campbell, who looked like he
had a some kind of nose. His nose was very red.
He was like Rudolph the red nose reindeer. There is
he actually a reindeer and we don't know about it,
and he's going to be working for Santa.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
He's going to go up to the North Pole and.
Speaker 2 (07:58):
He's the he could be a very bright red nose.
After the game, I don't know what happened with that.
I hope he's all right anyway. This was not about
grit or execution. This was about a bad assumption in
the NFL. Hope is a house of cards. The officials
are standing there with a leaf blower and they love
(08:20):
throwing flags.
Speaker 1 (08:21):
They love it, love it, love it, love it, love it.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
You better not mess with the referees though, on Dan Campbell,
he didn't go full pookin to cool because if you
mess with the referees, they'll just give the other team
two points like they gave Seattle to get back at Pooka.
Speaker 1 (08:34):
All right, now, furthermore, we head now.
Speaker 2 (08:37):
To the story within the story, that would be Steelers
wide receiver and former Seahawk DK Metcalf, who was involved
in a ruckus a rhuebarb in altercation with a fan
at Ford Field during the second quarter of the game.
Speaker 1 (08:54):
Now, I did enjoy how Jim Nance you're looking live? Well,
actually I screwed that up. That's Musburger. Jim Nance is.
Speaker 2 (09:02):
He's a hello friends, So Jim Nance on CBS and
we just happened to catch Dk Metcalf and interaction he
had with the fan. So Metcalf during the game. During
the game in the second quarter, he's talking to a
Lions fan with a blue wig on, because you know,
(09:22):
that's a good decision.
Speaker 1 (09:23):
What could possibly go wrong? So the fans hanging over
the first.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
Row railing and in an angle that was on CBS,
and there were some others on Instagram.
Speaker 1 (09:33):
Metcalf walked up to the fan. He grabbed him.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
By his shirt collar during the game to pull him
in closer, then forcefully shoved him back. And the fan,
who threw his hands up after Metcalf made contact with him,
appeared to have a yellow jersey in his hands. But
it's out he's a Lions fan. He had a blue
wig on Metcalf. You think he talked to reporters. Hell no, Oh,
(10:00):
he exited the locker room without talking, and he ran away.
If only he had done that with the fan, this
wouldn't have been an issue. But he ran out of
the locker room like a coward, not talking to reporters.
And Mike Tomlin he wasn't going there either, tom I
ain't talking about that. He played the old dumb card.
I haven't seen it. I heard about it, but I
haven't seen it. Hey, coach, here's my phone. You want
(10:22):
to watch it. I've watched it in seventeen different angles.
Speaker 1 (10:24):
Coach, I love. I haven't seen it. I've heard about it.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
See that is a dated get out of jail free
card that used to work, but now that highlights are
all over the phones. It literally tells people that you're lying.
Either A you're lying or B you're just lazy, or
a little bit of both, or a little bit of both.
So neither one of them talked Metcalf or Tomlin. Now,
the fan did talk to a reporter from a Detroit newspaper.
(10:49):
Apparently there's one newspaper left in Detroit, and the reporter
tracked down the fan and the fan said, here's what
he called DK Metcalf.
Speaker 1 (10:58):
Have you heard this?
Speaker 2 (11:00):
No, okay, do you think he called them a really
bad word, like like some kind of race bomb or
something like that.
Speaker 1 (11:06):
No, uh No, he didn't. Uh. The fan claims, and
again this is his story.
Speaker 2 (11:11):
The fan told the reporter that he called DK Metcalf
declin Zicharius Metcalf. He called him Decaylin Zicharius Metcalf, and
that prompted DK Metcalf to drag the fan down and
throw a punch at him. Fan said, quote, I called
him that, and then he grabbed me and ripped my shirt.
(11:34):
Kennedy told the Detroit Free Press.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
They've been around for a while.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
I'm a little shocked. The woe begone fan said, like
everyone's talking to me, I'm a little rattled, but I
just want the Lions to win.
Speaker 1 (11:47):
Baby.
Speaker 2 (11:49):
The fan was not removed from the game. His apparently
calling players by their name their legal name is not
a crime, although check the NFL Code of Conduct, it'll
be changed.
Speaker 1 (12:01):
Now the question DK Medcalf.
Speaker 2 (12:04):
Taking a swipe trying to throw a body blow body
blow at the Lions fan.
Speaker 1 (12:09):
How do you appraise this one?
Speaker 2 (12:12):
So this one is not complicated, I would imagine by
the time the sun rises that that Lions fan will
be hooked up with a nice ambulance chasing attorney who
will put this guy in a neck roll and have
him in front of the cameras. Oh my god, I
can never go to another NFL game again. My entire
like my kids. I don't even have kids, but I'm
(12:33):
gonna pretend I do. Their whole life's messed up because
dk Metcalf interacted with me during the game. Oh my god,
I need I need about two million dollars plus legal
fees and I'll be good.
Speaker 1 (12:45):
I'll be good. I promise I'll be good. My neck
and my back, my neck and my back.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
Anyway, DK Metcalf acted like a complete Dingleberry at Ford Field.
Speaker 1 (12:54):
Now I don't.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
I'm not getting all worked off. I might get on
my soapbox and do a whole You know.
Speaker 1 (12:59):
I'm better than you. How dare you? I know, stuff happens.
But what are you doing? Dude?
Speaker 2 (13:04):
You're built like a Greek statue, dk metcalf. You're making
twenty million dollars a year, whatever it is.
Speaker 1 (13:10):
And what are you.
Speaker 2 (13:11):
Doing going down to the fans level? You're grabbing a fan?
How is that possibly going to help you? And the
dude's wearing a blue rig who wears a blue wig?
Speaker 1 (13:21):
Like that? My god? Dangling over the railing. It's like
a circus prop or something like that.
Speaker 2 (13:27):
Stay away, stay stay in your lane, Stay away from
the grain unwashed? What is it about Detroit and this
kind of interaction? What is it that you can swipe
at a teammate, you can swipe at a coach.
Speaker 1 (13:44):
You can't swipe at a fan. You can't do it.
We all know that. And by the way, you can't
hit a fan if you're not near the fan. Isn't
that amazing? Oh my god, that's so deep. If you're
not near the bleachers, you can't punch a fan. Your
arms aren't that long. You're not elastic man. You're not
plastic man. It's like putting your hand in a blender
(14:07):
and then blaming the blender. Well, doctor, what happened? Well,
doc ask whatever, Well, my.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
Hand I'd put it in the blender and then the
blender it chopped off my thumb and my little finger.
But why did you put it in the blend? Well,
it's the blender's fault, the blender. It was his fault,
the blender.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
And this he called me by my government name. Nonsense. Again,
there's threes we understand. There's three sides of the story.
There is the fan side, which he gave to the
reporter from Detroit. There's dk Metcalf side he chose not
to give, and then there's the truth.
Speaker 2 (14:41):
So if hearing your government name, Dekalin Zicharius Metcalf flips
your breaker, wait until you get on social media, like
who does he think he is? Rod our test which
happened in the Detroit area. There the malice at the
Palace back in the day, one of the great knights
(15:01):
I've ever done talk radio was here all night and
we were on in the Pacer station and the Piston station,
and we talked about that the entire show was great
fond memories of that show.
Speaker 1 (15:12):
But here's the tell. The fact that DK metcalf postgame.
Speaker 2 (15:18):
Was gone, like the wind got out of there and
Mike Tomlin went radio silent.
Speaker 1 (15:22):
That is a dead do what that?
Speaker 2 (15:27):
And the fact the fan was not tossed. That is
the blinking red light here that if there was some.
Speaker 1 (15:34):
Kind of like n BOM.
Speaker 2 (15:37):
Or something like that, don't you think that would have
been brought up, that the Steelers would have really leaned
into that and said, oh, Dk, he snapped, But he
snapped because this guy, you know, he used the magic word.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
You can't say that word, and he had to defend
his honor.
Speaker 2 (15:50):
They didn't say that, so that tells you that that
likely didn't happen. Otherwise they would have immediately said that
the fan would have been kicked out. It was just
bad judgment, bad optics, bush league behavior. And you're paid
to catch football as you paid very well. You're not
auditioning for WrestleMania. You act like you've been there before.
Don't be a Schmendrick. It's not that hard. You can
(16:11):
paid a lot of money. You only play for a
few more years, then you can just live the life
of Riley and good for you, and he will be
getting called into the principal's office at some point over
the next couple of days.
Speaker 1 (16:23):
All right, last thing, the Cleveland we go why the
Browns suck? But Shadur Sanders was number one among all
and n five the most searched athlete, Shader Sanders.
Speaker 2 (16:36):
So the Browns rookie quarterback went out there and had
another blah blah type performance, and he did get a
little testy with a reporter over one of the questions
that was asked postgame at put him in an awkward
situation regarding coach Kevin Stefanci. So you likely did not
watch the Bills Browns game unless you're the Bills monster
(16:58):
or for Lexus in Buffalo. But for the rest of
us here, they didn't watch the game. I guess Strip Club,
John and Ohio they probably watched the.
Speaker 1 (17:06):
Game, they admit, maybe maybe Dick and Dayton.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
So with five oh eight left in the fourth quarter,
the Browns went for it on fourth and two. However,
should Ur Sanders was sacked, he gave the ball back
to the Bills. So a reporter asked Shoulder Sanders post
game if he thought that was a good decision and that.
Speaker 1 (17:26):
Led to a hullaballoo. Here's the audio tape, A great decision,
no fort on fourth to two.
Speaker 4 (17:35):
I know you can't be asking me that question, man,
come home, man, we can't. We can't see that. That's
like the thing like if we want to change, if
we want to change the Nirwang, change the franchise, if
we want to like help, we got to speak those
type of things is like separate us like a lot
a lot of the players like get these type of
questions and then we want to be working with y'all.
(17:55):
We want to be proactive. But like when you ask questions,
when questions are asked to us players, and it's like
you pining stuff against each other. It's like come on now,
you know, it's like it's like a thing in the
locker room, like you know, we're not gonna be able
to talk to him for we're not gonna be able
to give them what they need, like because that separates
the team. That don't that don't that don't that don't
(18:18):
help anything. They don't help anything in any situation no
matter how you answer it.
Speaker 1 (18:25):
All right, so the question here there you hear the responts.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
So Shouldur Sanders snapping back giving a lecture to a
reporter trying to pin.
Speaker 1 (18:35):
Him against Kevin Stefanski. Is that what this is about?
Speaker 2 (18:40):
So I love the fact that Shouldur Sanders is now
training the media.
Speaker 1 (18:43):
On how to do their job.
Speaker 2 (18:45):
Does he realize that the reporters, not all of them
work for Cleveland Brown Sunshine dot com.
Speaker 1 (18:50):
They don't work for that.
Speaker 2 (18:51):
Like Sanders took offense, he also took the cheese, the big, bright,
fluorescent orange cheese. And once you bite it, the mouse
trap always snaps. This wasn't about fourth and two. It
wasn't about analytics, courage or Kevin Stefanski's laminated place sheet.
Speaker 1 (19:09):
What about any of that? What about any of that?
Speaker 2 (19:12):
This was about the content machine, and the machine won
again and Shoulder Sanders took the bait. He doesn't even
realize it. The reporter lob the slow pitch softball wrapped
in barbed wire, and do you think going for it
was the right call? That is journalism's version of yelling
fight in a crowded bar and then backing away and
(19:32):
smiling and watching what happens. Sirder Sanders, he swung away, right,
But if the Browns are that broken. If the players
are that stupid, they don't know how to answer questions
like just give them sportscliche dot Com and tell them
just repeat the cliches.
Speaker 1 (19:49):
Just do that.
Speaker 2 (19:50):
And instead of giving standard issue responses like, hey, that's
the coach's called. Whatever the coach wants, we support the coach,
right next question, right next question. Sanders turned this into
like a ted talk on the media and narratives and
unity and locker room and media responsibility, which is a
noble sentiment.
Speaker 1 (20:10):
It is a absolutely atrocious strategy.
Speaker 2 (20:14):
That's how you turn a sack into a headline at
a news conference, and that thing turns into a bonfire.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
And this is everywhere.
Speaker 2 (20:21):
This had nothing to do with pinning Sanders against Kevin Stevanski.
That's just the wrapping paper, all right, That's just the
wrapping paper. The gift inside was the controversy, clicks and
engagement farming, and Sanders fed the beast instead of starving,
you starving it and all that. I mean, you gave it,
You give it food, you give it water. And again
(20:44):
it goes back to the way that the landscape is.
Now you're trying to get a reaction and you're trying
to get the player to respond. And if the players
are that obtuse that they're unaware of this, then that's
on them.
Speaker 1 (20:57):
But it's not the media's.
Speaker 2 (20:59):
Job to not ask softball questions to shoot at Sanders
because apparently his teammates are a bunch of rubes and
they do not answer the question. And by the way,
every team, whether it's the Vikings, the Broncos, the Patriots,
the Rams, the Seahawks, the Texans, the Falcons, it doesn't matter,
they all get asked similar questions. But you guys are
so stupid you answer them. And the job is not
(21:23):
to not ask the question. The job is for you
to know how to answer the question. All right, it
is the Ben Malshaw.
Speaker 1 (21:29):
I'll take you. I'll give you my media training.
Speaker 2 (21:31):
We'll do that maybe next week, maybe not. Anyway, we'll

making comments, goofing on different stuff. So that's on the
Facebook page and also the Instagram pagers say, well, I

those are. But if you don't know what those are
(24:35):
for some reason, because you're I don't know what you're
You're not paying attention.
Speaker 1 (24:38):
We do promote these from time to time. We use X.
Speaker 2 (24:40):
Mostly during the show. During the live show, we normally
use X. But the Facebook page and the Instagram page.
On Facebook, if you want to see the photos, it's
Ben Mahler's show. Follow the Facebook page and on Instagram
it's Ben Mahler on Fox. All right, back to it

seven ninety nine on Fox, Dorkoh the Comedian is called back.
He's the hottest comedian in the entire state of Hawaii

Speaker 2 (25:39):
Have you ever end up in Honolulu at a comedy club?
Ask for Dorkoh. That's what I say. Hello, Dorkoh, BLI.

would be wonderful. Do you have any merch Dorko. Can
people buy Dorko hats or Dorco shirts or anything like that?
Speaker 11 (26:42):
You're not the merchandise. We have a couple of ideas,
but that's all set for twenty twenty six.
Speaker 2 (26:49):
That sounds like that sounds like me, Dorko. I'm the
same thing. I had a guy a couple of months ago, Dorko.
He reached out to me via email. He said, listen,
I do T shirts and hats. I want to hook
you up. I said, that's great love. I'm a radio guy.
I love I love hookups. And we were going back
and forth. We had a couple ideas, and then the
guy vanished, what's up with that, Dorko. That's not very nice.
Speaker 11 (27:09):
I don't know he was a flak.
Speaker 2 (27:11):
Oh that's right, yes, right, Dorco, he's a fla. That's
your cousin Flaco. That's the problem, Dorko, your cousin, your
cousin Flaco.
Speaker 11 (27:19):
It wasn't my cousin, Fco. He's just super flake, super flake,
super flaking.

they don't pay attention to the media, they don't watch
the media.
Speaker 1 (35:07):
A lot of guys like to do that, right.
Speaker 2 (35:09):
So take Jacksonville head coach Liam Cohne. The team goes
to Denver and spanks the Broncos, dominates that game, and
he takes a little subtle shot at Sean Payton because
Sean Payton had made some comments in the lead in
to this game.
Speaker 1 (35:27):
In preparation for the game.
Speaker 2 (35:29):
He said, it's a smaller market, but you see a
real good team, was the quote from Sean Payton. So
Liam Cohne after the game, decided to have some fun
with Sean Payton, and he responded by saying that the
team was grateful, or he was grateful that a small
(35:49):
market team like us can come into a place like
Mile High and get it done, which obviously, there you
go means, hey, uh, I heard what you said. I
heard what you said. I'd file that away. The Jags
are all about us against the world.
Speaker 1 (36:06):
They love that. So many teams go with that, and
they're going with it right now as well.

Hour number four is at your audio door, And oh

Speaker 1 (00:16):
Came down to the very end.
Speaker 2 (00:17):
Detroit looked like they had scored a game winning touchdown,
but there was a penalty, in fact, a couple of
penalties to end that game. What were Dan Campbell's Lions
thinking at the end of their loss to Pittsburgh? Speaking
of the Steelers, they get to win. Wide receiver dk
Metcalf went viral. He took a swipe at a Lions
fan during the game. How do you appraise that one?
(00:41):
And Brown's quarterback Sheer Sanders snapping back at a reporter
for trying to pin him against head coach Kevin Stefanski.
Is that what this was about? We'll discuss that as well,

The black irishman who lives in Omaha, he's the guy
that sent me that nice Creighton blue Jay's hat, unless
I'm still waiting for that, but he knows that it's
all about Haleyon and I also saw over the weekend
of the Fifth Hour podcast.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
I believe at some point we got a message from
from our guy at Fergdog who's a big fan of Haleion.
Speaker 2 (02:45):
But every goal starts with an assist on and off
the field. That's why Haleyon and US Soccer are launching
for the Assist, a celebration of everyday acts of support
that help people achieve their goals with iconic brands like Centinni, Toms,
voltaan Anville, and Syndrome. To learn more, go to haleyon

Yours and our lead store. Lead story this.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
Hour from Motown where the Detroit football team they were
this close a couple of years ago from going to
the Super Bowl. They had the lead in the second
half and then it all went away. It all went
away against the forty nine ers, and they assumed their
window was wide open. You know what happened When you assume,
(03:53):
sometimes you find out you're in the boonies and they're
in the booties right now. And that is where we
go finishing the day. If you saw it, you know
what I'm talking about. If not Jared Goff, it looked
like he had thrown the pass to win the game,
and no it did not. And then afterwards Jared Goff
and Dan Campbell refusing to blame the referees as the
(04:15):
Lions were penalized not once but twice in the final
twenty two seconds of what turned out to be at
twenty nine to twenty four loss to the Insurers from Pittsburgh,
PA in the Game of the Day on Sunday, with
each flag the gating what would have been the go
ahead touchdown. Now, Dan Campbell gave the rather generic response postgame,
(04:39):
he said, we we Well, rather let me tell you
what he said.
Speaker 1 (04:43):
Let's go to Dan Campbell. Here's Dan Campbell in his
own words.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
I was gonna do my cosplay as Dan Campbell, but
let's hear from the man of the hour.
Speaker 1 (04:50):
Here's the coach of the Lions.
Speaker 3 (04:52):
I mean I don't even want to get into it,
you know, because it's not gonna change anything. We still lost,
you know, it's you know, I mean, look, do you
think you score, you don't score, and then you know,
you think you're going to have another play, replay it
or back it up and one more shot, and it doesn't.
And that's just I guess that's the way it's written
in a rule book. So that's frustrating. But there again,
(05:16):
it should never come to that. We had our opportunities.
We weren't able to put it in before that play.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
All right, so we weren't able to close it out essentially,
is what he said. This is good jumping off point.
Jared Golf also had similar comments. They must have consulted
with each other post game.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
So let's discuss the question what were Dan Campbell's Lions
thinking at the end of this game? Like seriously, like
what was going on here at the end of this game?
So on this one, we've got flow right at blender
(05:53):
Blender and in addition to that, if that was not
enough for you, barbed wire and we will combine all
of these things together for that magical moment.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
It's going to be a magical moment.
Speaker 2 (06:05):
Now to lead off here the Lions, I'm using my
psycho babble that I've learned from years of doing overnight
talk radio. The Lions thought they were playing hoops, not basketball.
That's my theory, right, because in the NBA, what is
always the case in the NBA, late game mayhem. It
(06:25):
comes with a hush order silence. The referee is supposed
to swallow the whistle. They're supposed to cross their arms
and let stars decide the ending of games.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
It's like it's an.
Speaker 2 (06:39):
Indie film festival or something like that. The NFL is
a whole different carnival. The Zebras don't mind meddling.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
If you don't believe me.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
Ask Pooka Nakool. He'll tell you right there, Pooka. They
thrive on it.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
Detroit went full pickup run at the end of this game.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
They had to pick here a nudge there. He's a
tesla said he's a rookie.
Speaker 1 (07:03):
Good name, although it's not. It's an extra like a
in there.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
But he set a screen like he was like freeing
up a shooter in the NBA got penalized for that.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
I'm on ross.
Speaker 2 (07:15):
Saint Brown gave a little shove, not much of a shove,
but a little shove.
Speaker 1 (07:18):
Nothing egregious, nothing scandalous.
Speaker 2 (07:21):
But the referee said, wait a minute, we can't have that,
and no blink, no mercy, no let them play, Let
the players decide the game. The referees went flow Rider.
They that's an old school song. They cranked up the
whistle song to max volume. Is what they did there.
And Campbell took the blame. As you heard, we played
the sound bite there, which is a noble thing to do,
(07:43):
very on brand for Dan Campbell, who looked like he
had a some kind of nose. His nose was very red.
He was like Rudolph the red nose reindeer. There is
he actually a reindeer and we don't know about it,
and he's going to be working for Santa.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
He's going to go up to the North Pole and.
Speaker 2 (07:58):
He's the he could be a very bright red nose.
After the game, I don't know what happened with that.
I hope he's all right anyway. This was not about
grit or execution. This was about a bad assumption in
the NFL. Hope is a house of cards. The officials
are standing there with a leaf blower and they love
(08:20):
throwing flags.
Speaker 1 (08:21):
They love it, love it, love it, love it, love it.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
You better not mess with the referees though, on Dan Campbell,
he didn't go full pookin to cool because if you
mess with the referees, they'll just give the other team
two points like they gave Seattle to get back at Pooka.
Speaker 1 (08:34):
All right, now, furthermore, we head now.
Speaker 2 (08:37):
To the story within the story, that would be Steelers
wide receiver and former Seahawk DK Metcalf, who was involved
in a ruckus a rhuebarb in altercation with a fan
at Ford Field during the second quarter of the game.
Speaker 1 (08:54):
Now, I did enjoy how Jim Nance you're looking live? Well,
actually I screwed that up. That's Musburger. Jim Nance is.
Speaker 2 (09:02):
He's a hello friends, So Jim Nance on CBS and
we just happened to catch Dk Metcalf and interaction he
had with the fan. So Metcalf during the game. During
the game in the second quarter, he's talking to a
Lions fan with a blue wig on, because you know,
(09:22):
that's a good decision.
Speaker 1 (09:23):
What could possibly go wrong? So the fans hanging over
the first.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
Row railing and in an angle that was on CBS,
and there were some others on Instagram.
Speaker 1 (09:33):
Metcalf walked up to the fan. He grabbed him.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
By his shirt collar during the game to pull him
in closer, then forcefully shoved him back. And the fan,
who threw his hands up after Metcalf made contact with him,
appeared to have a yellow jersey in his hands. But
it's out he's a Lions fan. He had a blue
wig on Metcalf. You think he talked to reporters. Hell no, Oh,
(10:00):
he exited the locker room without talking, and he ran away.
If only he had done that with the fan, this
wouldn't have been an issue. But he ran out of
the locker room like a coward, not talking to reporters.
And Mike Tomlin he wasn't going there either, tom I
ain't talking about that. He played the old dumb card.
I haven't seen it. I heard about it, but I
haven't seen it. Hey, coach, here's my phone. You want
(10:22):
to watch it. I've watched it in seventeen different angles.
Speaker 1 (10:24):
Coach, I love. I haven't seen it. I've heard about it.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
See that is a dated get out of jail free
card that used to work, but now that highlights are
all over the phones. It literally tells people that you're lying.
Either A you're lying or B you're just lazy, or
a little bit of both, or a little bit of both.
So neither one of them talked Metcalf or Tomlin. Now,
the fan did talk to a reporter from a Detroit newspaper.
(10:49):
Apparently there's one newspaper left in Detroit, and the reporter
tracked down the fan and the fan said, here's what
he called DK Metcalf.
Speaker 1 (10:58):
Have you heard this?
Speaker 2 (11:00):
No, okay, do you think he called them a really
bad word, like like some kind of race bomb or
something like that.
Speaker 1 (11:06):
No, uh No, he didn't. Uh. The fan claims, and
again this is his story.
Speaker 2 (11:11):
The fan told the reporter that he called DK Metcalf
declin Zicharius Metcalf. He called him Decaylin Zicharius Metcalf, and
that prompted DK Metcalf to drag the fan down and
throw a punch at him. Fan said, quote, I called
him that, and then he grabbed me and ripped my shirt.
(11:34):
Kennedy told the Detroit Free Press.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
They've been around for a while.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
I'm a little shocked. The woe begone fan said, like
everyone's talking to me, I'm a little rattled, but I
just want the Lions to win.
Speaker 1 (11:47):
Baby.
Speaker 2 (11:49):
The fan was not removed from the game. His apparently
calling players by their name their legal name is not
a crime, although check the NFL Code of Conduct, it'll
be changed.
Speaker 1 (12:01):
Now the question DK Medcalf.
Speaker 2 (12:04):
Taking a swipe trying to throw a body blow body
blow at the Lions fan.
Speaker 1 (12:09):
How do you appraise this one?
Speaker 2 (12:12):
So this one is not complicated, I would imagine by
the time the sun rises that that Lions fan will
be hooked up with a nice ambulance chasing attorney who
will put this guy in a neck roll and have
him in front of the cameras. Oh my god, I
can never go to another NFL game again. My entire
like my kids. I don't even have kids, but I'm
(12:33):
gonna pretend I do. Their whole life's messed up because
dk Metcalf interacted with me during the game. Oh my god,
I need I need about two million dollars plus legal
fees and I'll be good.
Speaker 1 (12:45):
I'll be good. I promise I'll be good. My neck
and my back, my neck and my back.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
Anyway, DK Metcalf acted like a complete Dingleberry at Ford Field.
Speaker 1 (12:54):
Now I don't.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
I'm not getting all worked off. I might get on
my soapbox and do a whole You know.
Speaker 1 (12:59):
I'm better than you. How dare you? I know, stuff happens.
But what are you doing? Dude?
Speaker 2 (13:04):
You're built like a Greek statue, dk metcalf. You're making
twenty million dollars a year, whatever it is.
Speaker 1 (13:10):
And what are you.
Speaker 2 (13:11):
Doing going down to the fans level? You're grabbing a fan?
How is that possibly going to help you? And the
dude's wearing a blue rig who wears a blue wig?
Speaker 1 (13:21):
Like that? My god? Dangling over the railing. It's like
a circus prop or something like that.
Speaker 2 (13:27):
Stay away, stay stay in your lane, Stay away from
the grain unwashed? What is it about Detroit and this
kind of interaction? What is it that you can swipe
at a teammate, you can swipe at a coach.
Speaker 1 (13:44):
You can't swipe at a fan. You can't do it.
We all know that. And by the way, you can't
hit a fan if you're not near the fan. Isn't
that amazing? Oh my god, that's so deep. If you're
not near the bleachers, you can't punch a fan. Your
arms aren't that long. You're not elastic man. You're not
plastic man. It's like putting your hand in a blender
(14:07):
and then blaming the blender. Well, doctor, what happened? Well,
doc ask whatever, Well, my.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
Hand I'd put it in the blender and then the
blender it chopped off my thumb and my little finger.
But why did you put it in the blend? Well,
it's the blender's fault, the blender. It was his fault,
the blender.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
And this he called me by my government name. Nonsense. Again,
there's threes we understand. There's three sides of the story.
There is the fan side, which he gave to the
reporter from Detroit. There's dk Metcalf side he chose not
to give, and then there's the truth.
Speaker 2 (14:41):
So if hearing your government name, Dekalin Zicharius Metcalf flips
your breaker, wait until you get on social media, like
who does he think he is? Rod our test which
happened in the Detroit area. There the malice at the
Palace back in the day, one of the great knights
(15:01):
I've ever done talk radio was here all night and
we were on in the Pacer station and the Piston station,
and we talked about that the entire show was great
fond memories of that show.
Speaker 1 (15:12):
But here's the tell. The fact that DK metcalf postgame.
Speaker 2 (15:18):
Was gone, like the wind got out of there and
Mike Tomlin went radio silent.
Speaker 1 (15:22):
That is a dead do what that?
Speaker 2 (15:27):
And the fact the fan was not tossed. That is
the blinking red light here that if there was some.
Speaker 1 (15:34):
Kind of like n BOM.
Speaker 2 (15:37):
Or something like that, don't you think that would have
been brought up, that the Steelers would have really leaned
into that and said, oh, Dk, he snapped, But he
snapped because this guy, you know, he used the magic word.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
You can't say that word, and he had to defend
his honor.
Speaker 2 (15:50):
They didn't say that, so that tells you that that
likely didn't happen. Otherwise they would have immediately said that
the fan would have been kicked out. It was just
bad judgment, bad optics, bush league behavior. And you're paid
to catch football as you paid very well. You're not
auditioning for WrestleMania. You act like you've been there before.
Don't be a Schmendrick. It's not that hard. You can
(16:11):
paid a lot of money. You only play for a
few more years, then you can just live the life
of Riley and good for you, and he will be
getting called into the principal's office at some point over
the next couple of days.
Speaker 1 (16:23):
All right, last thing, the Cleveland we go why the
Browns suck? But Shadur Sanders was number one among all
and n five the most searched athlete, Shader Sanders.
Speaker 2 (16:36):
So the Browns rookie quarterback went out there and had
another blah blah type performance, and he did get a
little testy with a reporter over one of the questions
that was asked postgame at put him in an awkward
situation regarding coach Kevin Stefanci. So you likely did not
watch the Bills Browns game unless you're the Bills monster
(16:58):
or for Lexus in Buffalo. But for the rest of
us here, they didn't watch the game. I guess Strip Club,
John and Ohio they probably watched the.
Speaker 1 (17:06):
Game, they admit, maybe maybe Dick and Dayton.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
So with five oh eight left in the fourth quarter,
the Browns went for it on fourth and two. However,
should Ur Sanders was sacked, he gave the ball back
to the Bills. So a reporter asked Shoulder Sanders post
game if he thought that was a good decision and that.
Speaker 1 (17:26):
Led to a hullaballoo. Here's the audio tape, A great decision,
no fort on fourth to two.
Speaker 4 (17:35):
I know you can't be asking me that question, man,
come home, man, we can't. We can't see that. That's
like the thing like if we want to change, if
we want to change the Nirwang, change the franchise, if
we want to like help, we got to speak those
type of things is like separate us like a lot
a lot of the players like get these type of
questions and then we want to be working with y'all.
(17:55):
We want to be proactive. But like when you ask questions,
when questions are asked to us players, and it's like
you pining stuff against each other. It's like come on now,
you know, it's like it's like a thing in the
locker room, like you know, we're not gonna be able
to talk to him for we're not gonna be able
to give them what they need, like because that separates
the team. That don't that don't that don't that don't
(18:18):
help anything. They don't help anything in any situation no
matter how you answer it.
Speaker 1 (18:25):
All right, so the question here there you hear the responts.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
So Shouldur Sanders snapping back giving a lecture to a
reporter trying to pin.
Speaker 1 (18:35):
Him against Kevin Stefanski. Is that what this is about?
Speaker 2 (18:40):
So I love the fact that Shouldur Sanders is now
training the media.
Speaker 1 (18:43):
On how to do their job.
Speaker 2 (18:45):
Does he realize that the reporters, not all of them
work for Cleveland Brown Sunshine dot com.
Speaker 1 (18:50):
They don't work for that.
Speaker 2 (18:51):
Like Sanders took offense, he also took the cheese, the big, bright,
fluorescent orange cheese. And once you bite it, the mouse
trap always snaps. This wasn't about fourth and two. It
wasn't about analytics, courage or Kevin Stefanski's laminated place sheet.
Speaker 1 (19:09):
What about any of that? What about any of that?
Speaker 2 (19:12):
This was about the content machine, and the machine won
again and Shoulder Sanders took the bait. He doesn't even
realize it. The reporter lob the slow pitch softball wrapped
in barbed wire, and do you think going for it
was the right call? That is journalism's version of yelling
fight in a crowded bar and then backing away and
(19:32):
smiling and watching what happens. Sirder Sanders, he swung away, right,
But if the Browns are that broken. If the players
are that stupid, they don't know how to answer questions
like just give them sportscliche dot Com and tell them
just repeat the cliches.
Speaker 1 (19:49):
Just do that.
Speaker 2 (19:50):
And instead of giving standard issue responses like, hey, that's
the coach's called. Whatever the coach wants, we support the coach,
right next question, right next question. Sanders turned this into
like a ted talk on the media and narratives and
unity and locker room and media responsibility, which is a
noble sentiment.
Speaker 1 (20:10):
It is a absolutely atrocious strategy.
Speaker 2 (20:14):
That's how you turn a sack into a headline at
a news conference, and that thing turns into a bonfire.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
And this is everywhere.
Speaker 2 (20:21):
This had nothing to do with pinning Sanders against Kevin Stevanski.
That's just the wrapping paper, all right, That's just the
wrapping paper. The gift inside was the controversy, clicks and
engagement farming, and Sanders fed the beast instead of starving,
you starving it and all that. I mean, you gave it,
You give it food, you give it water. And again
(20:44):
it goes back to the way that the landscape is.
Now you're trying to get a reaction and you're trying
to get the player to respond. And if the players
are that obtuse that they're unaware of this, then that's
on them.
Speaker 1 (20:57):
But it's not the media's.
Speaker 2 (20:59):
Job to not ask softball questions to shoot at Sanders
because apparently his teammates are a bunch of rubes and
they do not answer the question. And by the way,
every team, whether it's the Vikings, the Broncos, the Patriots,
the Rams, the Seahawks, the Texans, the Falcons, it doesn't matter,
they all get asked similar questions. But you guys are
so stupid you answer them. And the job is not
(21:23):
to not ask the question. The job is for you
to know how to answer the question. All right, it
is the Ben Malshaw.
Speaker 1 (21:29):
I'll take you. I'll give you my media training.
Speaker 2 (21:31):
We'll do that maybe next week, maybe not. Anyway, we'll

So many of you people are very curious, some to
a stalker level, so you can check. Even blind Scott's looking.
He can't even see, but he's like he's looking. He's
making comments, goofing on different stuff. So that's on the
Facebook page and also the Instagram pagers say, well, I

those are. But if you don't know what those are
(24:35):
for some reason, because you're I don't know what you're
You're not paying attention.
Speaker 1 (24:38):
We do promote these from time to time. We use X.

Mostly during the show. During the live show, we normally
use X. But the Facebook page and the Instagram page.
On Facebook, if you want to see the photos, it's
Ben Mahler's show. Follow the Facebook page and on Instagram
it's Ben Mahler on Fox. All right, back to it
we go, and the Moxie was the star of the
show with my dog Masha.

She was so cute in her jammies.
Speaker 1 (25:03):
He looked great in the jamies. Yes, was wonderful and
he gets matched apart.
Speaker 3 (25:10):
Well.
Speaker 1 (25:10):
I don't know that that was not intentional. That was
not intentional. But did have blue she had blue pajamas.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
On situational awareness, We'll get to that coming up in
a little bit. Let's go to the phones. At eight seven,
seven ninety nine on Fox, Dorkoh the Comedian is called back.
He's the hottest comedian in the entire state of Hawaii
and we've got him on retainer on the overnight show.
Speaker 1 (25:36):
I just made that up, but it's Dorko the comedian.
Speaker 11 (25:39):
Right.
Speaker 2 (25:39):
Have you ever end up in Honolulu at a comedy club?
Ask for Dorkoh. That's what I say. Hello, Dorkoh, BLI.
Speaker 11 (25:47):
Ben, thanks for that grade in introduction. Thee days tell
Christmas when Santa Fiden and he's gonna be in the
air everywhere. Has you got a chance to sit on
his lap them all yet?
Speaker 1 (26:01):
No, I've missed that opportunity, Darko, have you? I did?
Speaker 11 (26:06):
And I asked for a Kirk goat chains, shined autograph
cars and the Willie Mays to say hey kids, and
and of course Jordan's Michael Jordan. Yeah, of the goats,
he's a bit of goat.
Speaker 1 (26:23):
I got you. Yeah. Well, so I'm sure Sande will
take care of you, right, so I'll hook you up.
Speaker 11 (26:26):
Yes, I think so. My brother said that the chances
are I get the Kirk coat chain one for sure?
Speaker 1 (26:33):
Maybe, Well that would be great, That would be that
would be wonderful. Do you have any merch Dorko. Can
people buy Dorko hats or Dorco shirts or anything like that?
Speaker 11 (26:42):
You're not the merchandise. We have a couple of ideas,
but that's all set for twenty twenty six.
Speaker 2 (26:49):
That sounds like that sounds like me, Dorko. I'm the
same thing. I had a guy a couple of months ago, Dorko.
He reached out to me via email. He said, listen,
I do T shirts and hats. I want to hook
you up. I said, that's great love. I'm a radio guy.
I love I love hookups. And we were going back
and forth. We had a couple ideas, and then the
guy vanished, what's up with that, Dorko. That's not very nice.
Speaker 11 (27:09):
I don't know he was a flak.
Speaker 2 (27:11):
Oh that's right, yes, right, Dorco, he's a fla. That's
your cousin Flaco. That's the problem, Dorko, your cousin, your
cousin Flaco.
Speaker 11 (27:19):
It wasn't my cousin, Fco. He's just super flake, super flake,
super flaking.
Speaker 1 (27:24):
Now all right, any gigs coming up? Drko? You adn't
want to promote here? Anything coming up?
Speaker 11 (27:32):
I don't know, but I was gonna print some Ben
Mallard Benjamin's one hundred dollars Christmas coupons, and well that
would be great about who put the coupons floor and stuff?
Speaker 2 (27:45):
So well, if you want, you want to send money
as a donation, we it's not tax deductible, but it
will certainly help us pay bills.
Speaker 1 (27:51):
Definitely.
Speaker 11 (27:51):
I heard you mentioned zig Zag Zunika. He was, he
was in our high school. The crowd went creasy, just
like they did. Vote for Pedro and he won.
Speaker 1 (28:04):
Oh is that right? Okay, look at that?
Speaker 5 (28:06):
All right?
Speaker 1 (28:06):
All right, dork?
Speaker 2 (28:07):

they don't pay attention to the media, they don't watch
the media.
Speaker 1 (35:07):
A lot of guys like to do that, right.
Speaker 2 (35:09):
So take Jacksonville head coach Liam Cohne. The team goes
to Denver and spanks the Broncos, dominates that game, and
he takes a little subtle shot at Sean Payton because
Sean Payton had made some comments in the lead in
to this game.
Speaker 1 (35:27):
In preparation for the game.
Speaker 2 (35:29):
He said, it's a smaller market, but you see a
real good team, was the quote from Sean Payton. So
Liam Cohne after the game, decided to have some fun
with Sean Payton, and he responded by saying that the
team was grateful, or he was grateful that a small
(35:49):
market team like us can come into a place like
Mile High and get it done, which obviously, there you
go means, hey, uh, I heard what you said. I
heard what you said. I'd file that away. The Jags
are all about us against the world.
Speaker 1 (36:06):
They love that. So many teams go with that, and
they're going with it right now as well.
