Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello and welcome. It's our number fall. We go to
the NFL and a conspiracy theory making the rounds in
the NFL. How do you process an NFL referee being
accused of futzon around with these games for the Chiefs
(00:20):
because they were hanging out with Taylor.
Speaker 2 (00:22):
Swift possibly fixing a game.
Speaker 1 (00:25):
Also, why is the FBI investigating that Patrick Maholmes Travis
Kelce breaking incident? Their homes burglarized this past week? And
what do you make of Mike Tyson Iron Mike? Some
punnits believe Mike Tyson is in danger entering the ring.
Is he making a mistake? We'll talk about all that
(00:46):
and more right now make way for our number four.
Have a great Thursday here it is the deep state
having a field day, the deep state of football that
is well. In the beginning of another hour of the
Benmathers Show.
Speaker 3 (01:06):
We are in the air everywhere, partners in crime, as

(01:55):
so our lead this hour is from football the Dynasty.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
Of the NFL. Right now, it is the game of
the year.
Speaker 1 (02:04):
In the National Football League, the Buffalo Bills and the
Cana City Chiefs. And for all of the focus, all
of the noise being on that game, it is the
regular season super Bowl. If somehow Kansas City can win,
they are an underdog in that game. This is by
(02:24):
far their toughest schedule spot. So if the Chiefs win
this game, there is a pretty pretty good shot that
they will end up undefeated going to that Week eighteen
game against Denver, and then it's up to Andy Reid
whether or not he wants to play his guys. I
believe he will to have a chance at going seventeen
to no So there's a lot at stake historically for
(02:47):
Kansas City. But I want to go back to a
game I was lucky enough to attend the game that was.
I was trying to say, like, I've been away better
regular season NFL game. I'm into too many NFL games
because I live in Los Angeles. There were no NFL
teams in LA for most of my adult life until
about ten years ago. So I gotta think that is
(03:07):
the in terms of regular season. That's got to be it.
That's that's got to be it. I mean, that was
just some other crazy things I was at the game.
Carson Wentz got hurt in I was outside the Eagle
locker room against the Rams, and they were they felt
like their season was over because they had to go
the stiff named Nick Foles to play quarterback. And that
turned out to be pretty good. That turned out to
(03:28):
be pretty good. But in terms of raw drama, the
Broncos running out the clock setting up a chip shot
field goal to win the game.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
They were down by two field goal wins the game.
Speaker 1 (03:39):
I still remember looking down and seeing Sean Payton calling
the time out with you know what, one second winner
on the clock, because you that's all that games gonna
be won right here, and then it wasn't. But there
are conspiracy theorists that have had a field day with
that particular game, and just Kansas City in general that
(04:01):
if it wasn't for the Guardian Angel looking out for
the Chiefs, they would have lost multiple games this year.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
So if you haven't been following that part of the story,
maybe not, maybe you've ignored it.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
Been reading a lot about this since I got back
into the watchtower, the watchtower overlooking sports. So reading about
this NFL referee Sarah Thomas, do you.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
Know who that is? Now you're not familiar with her game.
Speaker 1 (04:28):
So Sarah Thomas is an official, not the lead official,
but she's on the crew. And several of you sent
me this story upset that I did not talk about it.
But I was not here Sunday into Monday, so I
could not have talked about it Sunday in the Monday.
But here's the deal. So this woman named Sarah Thomas
is a official. What a generic name to be an official?
(04:49):
Sarah Thomas. Anyway, she met, we are told, met up
briefly with someone rather important, Taylor Swift, prior to the
game at Arrowhead on Sunday, and not only that, asked
for a photo slash FaceTime just to prove that she
(05:10):
was actually near Taylor Swift.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
He wanted her family to see it.
Speaker 1 (05:16):
It turns out that she was doing her own version
Sarah Thomas of a malor meet and greet, but there
were no chicken fingers named after her at the landing
over there in Liberty. But details about the interaction are
pretty limited, pretty limited. We don't know a lot about it,
but it has been reported. Take this for what it's worth.
It has been reported that the meeting occurred as Swift
(05:39):
made her way with a gaggle of Meathead security guards
to her luxury box at Arrowhead prior to the game.
So there's no footage of it. I haven't seen it,
and it's been several days since this took place, so
there's no footage of this encounter, which means I love it.
We are allowed to interpret this like a painting at
(06:00):
at the love We are able to interpret what we
take away from this reporting because there's no video of it.
So let us discuss the question, how do you process
the obvious implication? How do you process that the reverree
was schmoozing with Taylor Swift before the Chiefs game. Here
and people saying, well, the fix is in and all that.
(06:22):
So I've got chow ice box and hippo and we
will combine all of these things together and we're going
to make barbecue burnt ends. Which Mark, you looked them up, right, Mark,
you looked up the bird and see what they look like.
They looked pretty good, right, They're not bad? No, not
now you think? All right? To lead off here, the
(06:43):
obvious thing is perception is reality, and the perception on this,
the optics on this are terrible. Bad job by you, right,
bad luck, bad look and all this was likely benign,
it was likely harmless. She's just fangirling, big fan of
(07:05):
Taylor Swift. But who goofed? I've got to know, And
the answer is this Sarah Thomas character. It's a conflict
of interest. It's just common sense. And I know common
sense is not that common. But you're the referee. You're
supposed to be one of the last bastions of integrity,
and it's bad decorum to be doing a FaceTime call
(07:27):
for your friends, your family with the girlfriend of a
athlete you are going to be adjudicating as an official
in just hours.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
Before the game.
Speaker 1 (07:40):
Bad job by you, right, So, but really what this
is is chow it's hoow is what it is. Because
you're feeding the fire breathing dragon is.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
What you're doing. You're feeding it. The grind, conspiracy of
it all.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
This is all scripted reality that everything's set up for
the Chiefs, and it helps fuela bele eat belief that.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
The Chiefs get all the calls. It's so blatant.
Speaker 1 (08:04):
It's much like lebron manipulating the NBA for Bronnie James
to only play home games in the G League, well
in the NFL. So I don't even hide it. I'm like, no, Sarah,
you're one of the referees. Go go to FaceTime with
Taylor Swift. Yeah, that's fine.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
It also helps add to the legend of this year.
And I remember the Patriots there were some funny stuff
that happened. People in New England get all upset about
that because, oh, so the Chiefs are not quite at
that level yet.
Speaker 2 (08:32):
Well, they're kind of in the middle of it. They're
in the middle of it right now. Mahomes ain't going away.
Speaker 1 (08:36):
I mean, you're guaranteed if your Chiefs at this point,
you're guaranteed at least the AFC Championship Game.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
And at that point It's a fifty to fifty shot. Right.
Speaker 1 (08:45):
If I told you right now the Chiefs are going
to be in the AFC Championship game, would you say
yes or no?
Speaker 2 (08:51):
Of course you say yes.
Speaker 1 (08:52):
Right Look around Baltimore not playoff tested. Lamar Jackson disappears
in the playoffs. Buffalo will see what happens on Sunday.
But I would take the Chiefs over them in a
playoff matchup, for sure. But it adds to the mythology,
the myth of the Chiefs that the referees are hanging
out with the girlfriends and the players and Mahomes and
(09:14):
Andy Reid and all that they have that old Buffalo
Wild Wings button thing where they have a direct line
to the NFL League office. The officials are in the bag.
What's in the bag? The referees?
Speaker 2 (09:25):
All right.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
Furthermore, staying with the theme of the hour, Cannes City, the.
Speaker 2 (09:31):
FBI, the FEDS. Did you see this?
Speaker 1 (09:34):
The FEDS have now joined the investigation of those burglaries.
The home of Travis Kelsey and Patrick Mahomes were violated
by some criminals. Now TMZ tells us that the FBI
has been assisting local law enforcement in those towns Mahomes
and Kelsey live in where the break ins took place
(09:56):
in the spin of about a day, right twenty four
hours or so, back to back days. So question, why
why is the NFL did they make the call? Is
the NFL the one that made the call? Why is
the FBI investigating? Why is the FBI investigating Patrick Mahomes
and the Travis kelce incidents here?
Speaker 2 (10:19):
It's a local store, it's local crime. Why are they investigating? Well?
Speaker 1 (10:23):
Is it because football people made calls and said, these
are important people.
Speaker 2 (10:30):
This is Patrick Mahomes. You cannot touch Patrick Momes. And
this is Travis Kelcey. He's got multi million dollar podcasts.
This is a big deal.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
No, A little birdie tells me that the FBI's involvement
in this is because they believe it is an organized
crime syndicate that is targeting celebrities all over the country
and it just happened that Mahomes and Kelsey their number
came up, and the organized crime crossing state lines, crossing
(11:00):
state lines.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
So the other part of this is we've learned that Travis.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
Kelcey has the nicest ice box you could possibly have,
And how do we know that he had twenty thousand
dollars that was taken in cold hard cash, just laying
around his house. Twenty Gee's gone, Wawser's wowsers. Yeah, now,
(11:28):
we don't know. I didn't see Maybe maybe it was announced.
I didn't see what it was taken for Mahome's house.
But twenty thousand lost at Patrick mahomes house. That's a
lot of dough it takes. You can't just go to
the bank and get twenty thousand dollars out of the bank.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
That's hard to do.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
All right, Now, last thing to boxing, we go my
fascination with Iron Mike Tyson, the baddest man on the planet.
He had a sparring match, a public sparring match, and
looked to be in pretty good shape based on the video.
Was fifty eight years old, and he had a packed house.
(12:01):
Iron Mike kept packing the house there in Irving, Texas.
People were loving it. Getting ready for that fight with
that punk YouTuber Jake Paul that's going to take place
on Friday.
Speaker 2 (12:13):
Now.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
Some pundits believe that Mike Tyson Iron Mike is.
Speaker 2 (12:18):
In danger, danger danger danger.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
Entering the ring at age fifty eight, thirty one year
age gap between Tyson and Jake Paul, who's an amateur
pretending to be a professional. So is Mike Tyson making
a mistake? I will engage those that are very concerned
about the wellness of Mike Tyson. Is Mike Tyson making
a mistake? And my answer is n plus zh no.
(12:45):
That is my answer. And here's why, plausibly the doctors
have cleared him. I assume the doctors have cleared Tyson.
He will not be allowed in the ring unless he
is medically checked out. So there is that. I also
believe in live and let Live, and this is something
that because Mike Tyson licked up a frog a toad,
and then the toad connected him with God, and then
God told Tyson to go out and beat this guy,
(13:09):
Jake Paul. Because of all of those things happening, this
is what Mike Tyson wants to do. So live and
let live. And that's fine. It's Mike Tyson's life. And
if he wants to go in there and something goes
wrong and it turned sideways and it gets ugly, that's
on him.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
He made the decision. One's forced him to do it.
He doesn't need the money.
Speaker 1 (13:28):
From what we've been told, Tyson is a gazillionaire based
on weeds, just a little weed.
Speaker 2 (13:35):
So he's not hurting for money. He's not hurting for money.
So there's that. Now. My takeaway is from what I
saw the video of.
Speaker 1 (13:42):
Him sparring, there were a couple of things that caught
my attention. The first thing is the statue of Liberty
is alive and well, because he had all these people
standing around Mike Tyson who was doing his sparring match,
and it looked like every single fan that was there,
(14:04):
they were holding their phones up in the air right
like I'll share it now. You can't see because it's radio,
but I'm holding you hold the phone up like the
statue like Lady Liberty, you know. And they're trying to
document everything that's going on like Lady Liberty. They're holding
their phone up documenting everything. They're not actually soaking in
what was going on with their own eyes. And the
other thing that I noticed Mike Tyson, he looked slow.
(14:31):
It was applotting Mike Tyson. It did not It was
like a mix. To put it in the video game context,
it was like if you combined Class Joe with King Hippo.
It was a combination of those two like intertwined, intertwined.
There not only will he'd be taking on Jake Paul
(14:53):
Mike Tyson, but he's also obviously be fighting fatigue at
age fifty eight.
Speaker 2 (14:57):
Like he's gonna win.
Speaker 1 (14:58):
He probably went early in the fight unless the fix
is in and it doesn't matter. But the thing about
as we mentioned this in a previous episode of the show,
it is absolutely bonkers how.
Speaker 2 (15:09):
Many people are going to watch this.
Speaker 1 (15:12):
The boombox is out, crank up the volume all the
way to eleven and beyond. Because of the power of Netflix,
this is going to be the most viewed fight, certainly
in the modern era and all time. There will never
have been a fight that had more people watching than
Mike Tyson versus an annoying YouTuber. But that's only a
(15:36):
byproduct of the reach of Netflix and the bully pulpit
that they have to get the message across and let
people know anyway, it is the Ban Mahlor Show.
Speaker 2 (15:50):
If you would like to be part, you can join
us here.
Speaker 1 (15:52):
The lines are open at eight seven seven ninety nine
on Fox. That's eight seven seven nine nine six six
three six nine. And a listener wrote and said, what
happened to hollering James, I'm not his mother. I don't
know what I mean. He calls in when he calls in,
and we're here, whether he calls it or not, I
don't know why anyone would ask for him to call in.
But I don't know. A record breaker, a record breaker.
(16:21):
We'll get to that. And also you might want to
meet in the middle. You might want to meet in
the middle. We'll go there as well. We'll get to
all of it, and we will do it next.
Speaker 4 (16:34):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Miller
Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific on
Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
It is your announcer, Bill Miller. We'll get back to
Ben Maller in a minute. And hey, we need you
to support the nonsense of it all. Now, what is
the nonsense of it all? Well, let's see behind the scenes.
Most people never do anything with this show. They just listen,
which is fine. But if you want to be part
(17:03):
of it, follow Ben. He's over there on Facebook at
Ben Mahlor and on Instagram Ben Mahlor On Fox and
interact with the show.
Speaker 2 (17:16):
You can contribute content.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
See photos of the great expedition to Kansas City, never
before seen photos available right there.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
But right now, let's get back to to Big Ben.
All right, thank you Bell, Thanks Bell.
Speaker 1 (17:33):
All right there it is, yes, amazing, shocking and all that.
As we continue on here, take your calls coming up
in a minute. As we begin this hour with the
grad and conspiracy, the official hanging out with Taylor Swift
for at least a few seconds prior to the game.
Speaker 2 (17:54):
And that's that.
Speaker 1 (17:55):
Ike in Roseville, Minnesota says, Ben, you forgot from Bakersfield,
home of Rod's ribs.
Speaker 2 (18:03):
In your barbecue ranking.
Speaker 1 (18:04):
Yeah, Rod brought some ribs in Those were good and
all that back in the Day's done that a few times.
Were gonna get Rodd, the ambassador of Bakersfield back in here.
But that next level there in Cans City, it's like
a whole different situation. Not that Rod isn't good and
you get a smoker. You can make it at your
own house and make amazing barbecue and save yourself a
(18:27):
lot of money. You can absolutely do that. So I
tease this, and if you tease something, you're supposed to
pay it off. That's the rules of engagement. Those are
the rules of engagement.
Speaker 2 (18:37):
So record breaking.
Speaker 1 (18:38):
Now Jake Paul entering the ring on Friday as the favorite,
the betting favorite. Last we saw the line was minus
two ten minus two ten.
Speaker 2 (18:50):
The line. If you're not familiar.
Speaker 1 (18:52):
With the way the gambling works, if you look at
the outs based on one hundred dollars wager, so minus
two what does that get you?
Speaker 2 (19:02):
So minus two ten at.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
One hundred dollars a wager that would pay out one
hundred and forty seven dollars and sixty two cents, you
would win less than fifty bucks out of one hundred,
one hundred dollars.
Speaker 2 (19:15):
Bet Yeah.
Speaker 1 (19:16):
However, it implies the implied odds are that Jake Paul
has almost a seventy percent chance to win, almost a
seventy percent chance. Because the implied odds are sixty seven
over sixty seven.
Speaker 2 (19:29):
Percent, that's a pretty big advantage.
Speaker 1 (19:33):
At one of the big offshore books, bet mgm Tyson
is at plus one seventy. However, is it true that
if you look at where the money is, both the
public and the sharps agree. Both the public and the
sharps agree that the wrong person is favored Mike Tyson
(19:57):
as the majority of the money and the tickets and
the public the number of tickets wagered and Tyson's at
seventy six percent of the tickets. And as far as
the money, which often refers to the sharp money, almost
sixty percent of the money leaning towards Iron Mike Tyson
(20:19):
in the fight on Friday, and we are told that
the betters obviously think Tyson's going to dominate this fight
and win, and Tyson's an underdog and all that, but
they also pointed out that the sports books will be
pulling for Jake Paul because there's so.
Speaker 2 (20:37):
Much makes me want to put my entire mortgage on
Jake Paul.
Speaker 1 (20:40):
I know, right, when you see that the sportsbooks support
Jake Paul, that tells you that this usually who they
support wins more.
Speaker 2 (20:47):
Times than not.
Speaker 1 (20:49):
They're not in the business of losing money. But yeah,
that's the that's the story. So the books are rooting
for Jake Paul to win even though he's the favorite.
That's how lopsided the money is. All right, is the
Ben Malord Show. Let's go to the phones and we'll
say hello to Steve who's in Manhattan. Hello Steven Manhattan.
Speaker 5 (21:12):
Eight eight two minute rounds. Ben Distinguished panel, expanding audience,
welcome to hell. Yeah yeah, now let me. I gotta
apologize everybody because I haven't been able to call in
and I got I big usk. You have me on
an over five hours final mind. But the thing is,
(21:33):
on election night, I was on hold right for a
sports sports show, and when I was on hold, folks,
they called Pennsylvania. So I knew as soon as they
called Pennsylvania the show was over. So I went on
the air and we called the election. It was the
first time ever in America.
Speaker 1 (21:49):
Hey, yeah, hey, Steve, Steve, Now, can you get off
the speakerphone, Steve, can you pick the phone up? I
want to hear. I want to hear what you have
to say there, Steve. I want to hear every word
that you have to save. It sounds like you're on
a speakerphone.
Speaker 5 (22:00):
Be you here better now? Ye?
Speaker 2 (22:01):
A little better? Yeah?
Speaker 6 (22:02):
Go ahead, all right, great?
Speaker 5 (22:04):
Great? No. I was on hold on election night for
a sports show and they called Pennsylvania, and I knew
that as soon as Pennsylvania was called, the show was over.
So when I went on the air in a few
minutes after that, I called the election on the sports
shows the first time ever. A sports show, was the
first one ever to call a presidential election. And then
(22:25):
the host goes to me, well, what does that mean?
I said, what does that mean? You just pulled the
biggest event of the year on your show. Your knuckle ahead.
But the thing with Tyson, now, if you turn back
the clock and all your tech, he's going through your
time machines. When Mike Tyson was the heavyweight champ and
he fired Kevin Rooney, who at the time was one
of the best trainers on the planet, the word on
(22:46):
the street was within two years Mike Tyson would be
the doorman at trum TWA. Now listen this guy, Jake
Poll what everything is. I don't know where all his
winds come from. Ten wins are they stay, including the
school yard. But the thing is, I remember now he's
changing professions. He's going from being a YouTube street fighter
(23:06):
or whatever he is the profession.
Speaker 6 (23:08):
To be in a boxer.
Speaker 5 (23:09):
That's unheard of.
Speaker 2 (23:10):
Well, money, it's a money grab, is what it is.
He found a way to get some money and.
Speaker 1 (23:13):
He's good for him. He's making a lot of money.
There's a lot of dumb money. As they say on
Wall Street, this is dumb money. In sports. You know,
it's a sham and he's doing it and people are
buying into it enough people are supposedly buying the do it. Oh,
this isn't even a pay per view fight, so who cares?
Netflix is they're the ones footing the bill on this.
Speaker 5 (23:31):
Right and fourteen ounce gloves folks, you know what that
means is basically a pillar fight and too many rounds.
Tyson could mug him, he could job with him, grab him,
hold him for a couple of minutes and the round
is over.
Speaker 6 (23:45):
I wouldn't bet on either one of these.
Speaker 5 (23:46):
Guys right now, and Pluz, I don't ever predict anything
on the radio because why make a prediction? Big money shifts.
Speaker 6 (23:53):
Okay, so I'm not.
Speaker 5 (23:54):
Going to do it.
Speaker 1 (23:54):
Yes, yes, I've heard that when Steven Manhattan says who's
going to win?
Speaker 2 (23:59):
And oh my god.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
The guys that run the casinos, so they're they're very nervous.
They start biting their fingernails, like, oh my god, what
are we going to do?
Speaker 2 (24:07):
We have no chance?
Speaker 5 (24:09):
Man, The boys in the casinos they run for the
hills when I make predictions. But anyway, I just the
bills have there. I mean, they really cut out for
them the next four games. They're playing some big time
talent there. And don't bet against Mahomes.
Speaker 2 (24:25):
We know that.
Speaker 5 (24:26):
But you know why. He has a hell of a
coach there, and he has a hell of a defensive
coordinator and that's all you need in the NFL is
the one sport where the coach really means a lot.
And Andy Reid has done a great job.
Speaker 1 (24:38):
Yeah, there's more Mahomes than Andy Reid.
Speaker 2 (24:43):
All right, that's a slower, a slow yer role.
Speaker 5 (24:47):
Yes, Tom Brady, we know that. But if you have let's.
Speaker 1 (24:51):
Let's put it this way, if you had Andy Reid
coaching Mac Jones, it would be about as good as
Bill Belichick coaching Mac Jones. You know what I'm saying,
And it's not good, not a not a pretty purser. Yeah,
all right, we'll go call your other shows. All right,
Steve go away. There's a Steven Manhattan they're checking and
it is the Ben Maucher.
Speaker 2 (25:09):
We have a fun fact. Fun fact. Fun fact, fun fact,
fun fact, fun fact.
Speaker 1 (25:15):
All right, So this weekend is it kicks off later today,
a pretty good matchup NFC East matchup. You've got Washington
in Philadelphia kicking off the Week eleven card in the NFL.
But on Sunday Night on and me see, the Chargers
will take on Joe Burrow and the Bengals. And the
Chargers have held all of their opponents to less than
(25:37):
twenty one points, and if they do that this weekend.
Speaker 2 (25:41):
They will make NFL history.
Speaker 1 (25:43):
They do it again on Sunday Night against Joe Burrow
and the Bengals hold them to twenty one points or less,
they have a chance to be the first team since
nineteen ninety, a generation plus ago and the Giants of
nineteen ninety the Bill Parson Giants to hold their first
ten opponents to less than twenty one points.
Speaker 2 (26:05):
And so that's.
Speaker 1 (26:06):
Something that's a feather in the cap to Jim Harbaugh
and is on the line heading into this weekend. Now,
another game that is being played here. The Houston Texans,
supposedly a good team. They lost in the Lions on
Sunday night, or I was a hot mess. Well, the
the Texans are having some issues, shall we say. They
(26:28):
held a player's only meeting on Monday, and they also
had one on Sunday night after the loss, and they
likely will have another player's only meeting in the coming days.
Speaker 2 (26:43):
So if you're keeping short home, that's.
Speaker 1 (26:45):
One week and three players only meetings for the Houston Texans. Now,
the good news is, and I think we'll be talking
about this game. We'll be doing the TV show later
today over at Universe, and I believe we're talking about
this Cowboy game they play Monday night, the Texans.
Speaker 2 (27:03):
And the Cowboys.
Speaker 1 (27:05):
If Houston can't beat Dallas in that Monday night game,
that is a fireable offense the way the Cowboys are playing.
Does anyone disagree with that? Does anyone disagree with that?
If you can't the Cowboys, they don't have a defense.
They have a very weak quarterback, right Cooper Rush not good,
(27:28):
not good, bad, bad, bad, bad, lacking all the things
you need, mobility, pinpoint accuracy, field vision, all of those
things on the short side. On the short side just
not not particularly good.
Speaker 2 (27:46):
And so if the Cowboys arena anything, they're gonna do like.
Speaker 1 (27:48):
Gadget plays and crap like that, try to stir things up.
The good news is the sun will not be a
problem because the sun will have set by the time
they kick off in the greater Dallas area there in Arlington,
So you want to have to deal with that. But
the Texans three players only meetings, which I love, and
I point this out all the time. There is no
(28:08):
need for a player's only meeting. The only reason you
do a player's only meeting is to make it seem
like you're trying to do something to fix the problem.
Players only meetings. It is a staple of every single
team that has hit a rough patch my entire life,
the summit in the locker room, they get together, the
(28:29):
chit chat that's going to change everything. And it's no
different as I have spent all I've spent my time
telling you over the years when these things come up,
the player's only meeting is no different than an office meeting,
where the whole point of it is to get it
over with as.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
Fast as possible and to not ask any questions.
Speaker 1 (28:46):
But the fact that professional sports teams who spend all
their time together during the season. They travel together, they
stay at the hotel together, they eat meals together, even
when the NFL teams only travel on the weekends and
they only travel eight or nine times a year plus
the playoffs.
Speaker 2 (29:01):
But here's the thing.
Speaker 1 (29:03):
NFL teams hang out, they eat together at the training facility,
they're they're around each other all the time, so there's
no need to have a designated players only meeting. It
happens all the time. So when I see these stories,
I just roll my eyes. I'm like, this is ridiculous.
All right, anyway, it is the Ben Malo sho. Let's
go to Blind Scott on the North end of Boston. Hello,
(29:24):
Blind Scott, Ben.
Speaker 6 (29:26):
I was trying to call you and I called the
Sports Hub by mistake, and the call screen our answers.
I think it's Ryan Beaton. I don't know if you
know him, so I think he's Coop. I'm talking to Mike.
He's Coop. I love that station, the Sports tib Man.
They really like you too. I just think it's great.
I've been reading these FBI files all morning. I don't
know if you know this guy, Alan Jackson. He's from
(29:46):
Los Angeles. But I was reading these FBI files and
then I saw my cousin's name in one of them,
and it made me so happy. Man. One other things,
bet you were.
Speaker 1 (29:55):
You were You're very happy that your cousin was on
an FBI file.
Speaker 6 (30:00):
He's a police chief in Dover, so he was like
one of the people that gave like the tips you know.
Speaker 2 (30:05):
Oh he he sung like a canary.
Speaker 6 (30:10):
You remember op and Anthony show they used to be
on in Boston.
Speaker 1 (30:13):
I do remember well. They were a syndicated show, a
morning show, Opie and Anthony. They competed against Stern back
when Stern had his fastball, not as junk pitch as
he has now.
Speaker 4 (30:23):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (30:24):
Yeah. They had a famous like Thomas Menino bit where
they played where they said that May had died in
the morning and everybody thought he was dead. You gotta
do a radio bit like that, Ben, that's a great idea.
Speaker 2 (30:34):
Let's do a bit.
Speaker 1 (30:35):
I guess the FBI involved Pete and Pittsburgh, your nemesis
called up Stern one time and had the FBI knocking
at his door over something he said on the air.
Speaker 6 (30:44):
Yeah, I had it with It happened to be with
Rush Limbaugh. I called a bomb threat into the studio
before and they contacted me after I looked up.
Speaker 2 (30:53):
Why would you do that? By the way, would you
think that's a good idea?
Speaker 6 (30:58):
Man? He was such a jerk to me, like like
like us. They don't get fans after you, man, they
get your number, your address, they call you up. You
know what I mean? These people are crazy, you know
what I mean? Yeah, they like I have people contacting
me now on fake social media accounts just to tell
me to drop dead. You know how they are. They
do it to you too, Oh they do.
Speaker 2 (31:17):
I do get it all the time. I enjoy that
very much. The bought account.
Speaker 6 (31:22):
Me and you, Big Star.
Speaker 2 (31:23):
Yeah, we're very similar, me and you. Blind Scott. Yeah, absolutely,
there's quite no question.
Speaker 7 (31:27):
He's in a two pie's in a pod. Yeah, out
in front of both, standing out in front of both
of Hey, I got a good idea a sports radio
show that plays in country music at the same time.
So you just try that in Boston. I was standing
there with Mickey. He said he loved it.
Speaker 6 (31:41):
You know, it only made it three months.
Speaker 7 (31:42):
Though, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (31:43):
Yeah, Well that's the problem. You gotta be in the
right location for that. All right.
Speaker 1 (31:47):
Well, thank you, blind Scott. There's a blind Scott. We've
learned something new about blind Scott. He claimed he called
the Limbaugh Show with a bomb front. Well, that's that's
just absolutely perfect, unless it's not. So there is He's
a conspiracy, not a football conspiracy, a golf conspiracy. There's
a claim being made that the PGA of America sold
(32:08):
Writer Cup tickets directly to the secondary market.
Speaker 2 (32:13):
People are pointing this out.
Speaker 1 (32:14):
Because the prices for the Writer Cup have gone through
the roof, and so the belief is they went right
to the middleman. They didn't cut out the middle man.
They just said, all right, rather than sell the tickets
to Joe Schmoe and have them put the tickets on
the secondary market, we'll just put them on the secondary
market and then we'll make our money. And so that's
(32:37):
whether that's true or not. People believe it's true. When
the legend becomes the fact, you go with the legend.
What else did I say? I saw that the Doctor Phil,
believe it or not, had a deal that was voided
with the Professional bull Riders Association. Apparently the Cooper, a
big bull writing guy. He loves bull writing.
Speaker 2 (32:56):
Coopy.
Speaker 1 (32:57):
He told me the bull riding kicking off on Friday,
and they had a media deal with Doctor Phil's company,
and it's open Friday night in Tucson. But the deal
is done, so how will bull riding go on? I
was in Vegas one time they had the bull Writing Championship,
the Super Bowl of bull Riding, and I remember being
(33:20):
there and it was like there was so many dudes
in cowboy hats and you know, the jeans, and I
mean it was.
Speaker 2 (33:26):
Rooms are expensive that week. Yeah, I was at Mandalay Bay.
Speaker 1 (33:29):
I remember was the state of Mandalay Bay, and it
was it was packed, man, and there's like a bunch
of dudes from like Colorado, Wyoming, you know, real cowboy people,
not the fake cowboys, you know, not the fake Now.
I know in NASCAR, some of the NASCAR people complain
the good old Southern boys that there are people from
too many people from California and places that aren't NASCAR
country in bull riding. Are there people that are in
(33:54):
bull riding who are from like non traditional cowboy states.
I have no idea. I have no idea. I just
know that it didn't seem like it when I saw
those dudes who were with.
Speaker 2 (34:06):
The bull rids.

All right, three stories? Figure out where the three isn't true?
Story number one. The election is over, but the aftermath continues.
Not long after Nick Bosa was fine for showing off
a MAGA hat in the postgame interview, there was a
wave of touchdown celebrations across college in the NFL, and
and it was they were.
Speaker 2 (38:54):
Impersonating the Trump dance well.
Speaker 1 (38:57):
The NFL has issued a league wide memo to players
telling them they will be analyzed for doing the Donald
and story number two it's.
Speaker 2 (39:04):
All about the extra protection.
Speaker 1 (39:06):
Ahead of his own matchup with Iron, Mike, Jake Paul
went out and got himself a couple of diamond and
cruston ear covers just in case Tyson gets hungry again.
The ear covers cost one hundred thousand dollars apiece. And
story number three again relates to Tyson and Paul to
fight the nerd bar on Fremont Street in Vegas, becoming
(39:27):
the micro Square Garden. They hosted the fight between two
little people dressed up as Mike Tyson and Jake Paul
look alikes. The little Tyson came.
