Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello and welcome. It's our number four, our four. You
smell that deadline day for franchise tag players in the NFL.
How ugly are things going between Josh Jacobs and the Raiders?
Does Sequon Barkley smoke the peace pipe with the Giants
(00:21):
before the deadline? And why was Evan Ingram able to
get a deal done in Jacksonville while nobody else at
this point has been able to do it. We'll talk
about all that. Have a wonderful start to your week
here on a Monday. Thank you, Thank you, thank you
for downloading and subscribing and making it a habit here
it is our number four. Enjoy The music is about
(00:47):
to stop for certain football players today. Welcome, in the
beginning of another hour of the Ben Mathers Show. We
are in the air, every side by side. We live
under the same roof, coast to coast, border, the border
and beyond on the mast and thunderously powerful microphones of
(01:12):
fsre emmating live from the cookwear as we keep the
pot boiling all night long. We are broadcasting live from
the tire rack dot com studios. Tyer rack dot Com
will help you get there in unmatched selection, fast, free
shipping free, road hazard protection, over ten thousand recommended installars,
(01:35):
tyer rack dot com, the way tire buying shite, and
we are back in the audio Dojoe Our lead this
hour comes from the NFL roster shuffle. We talked earlier
in the overnight about DeAndre Hopkins spurning the Patriots, saying,
screw you, Bellacheck, I ain't going to play for the
(01:55):
pats I'm out of here, you Patsy's and he's instead
going to play for the Tennessee Titans. Did a monologue
on that. It'll be available for download at the end
of this hour, but we can talk more about that
if you want. But the focus here with training camp
sent to open up around the NFL this week, we
are just days away. In fact, I think some teams
(02:16):
start to report to training camp tomorrow tomorrow tomorrow. But
for those fans that are wondering about the franchise tag,
those who are looking at the football on this thing,
what's going on with that franchise tag, Well, today's a
big day. You either get a deal done by this
afternoon or you are locked in purgatory. Of course, rich purgatory.
(02:38):
You paid a lot of money, so one of the
franchise tag players has agreed to a long term deal
just before the deadline. And if you have not heard,
maybe not, maybe you're not paying that close attention because
you actually had stuff to do this weekend. We have
been informed the tight end, Evan Ingram of the Jaguars,
has agreed to a three year contract for forty one
(02:59):
million dollars. But it's really twenty four million guaranteed. And
he would have made eleven point three million. How would
he have gotten by a lot of soup kitchen, a
lot of Ramen noodles. But instead he'll be able to
live the life of Riley. Twenty four million guaranteed and
that's what he's going to get now over the next
(03:19):
couple of years. While Ingram got the long term contract,
he got paid. It's not going to happen. It would appear,
based on the noise around the NFL for the franchise
tag running backs that Josh Jacobs with the Raiders, Sakwon Barkley,
and Tony Pollard, all of them are not going to
(03:40):
get paid. Here specifically, we'll talk about Jacobs here. A
report from Vegas indicated that he and the Raiders are
way to a part to get a deal done. Now,
Jacobs has made some noise that he is not going
to go quietly, So let us discuss the question how
ugly here are things about to get between Josh Jacobs,
(04:02):
the former Alabama or running back, and his pro football
employer are Raiders. So I've got GPS, Campfire, and Q
tips and we will combine all of these things together
and we are gonna make baba Ganoosh is what we're
gonna make because you can eat babag nooge very cost effectively.
(04:24):
It's just eggplant, Just eggplant. You can eat that, no problem.
Now to kick off here Josh Jacobs. I don't know
the guy. I assume you don't know him either, But
based on what we have observed from the watchtower here
from the cat bird seat, Josh Jacobs is spitting mad.
He's spitting loogi's all over the place there. Based on
(04:44):
social media noise, he's ready to dig in his heels
and he's not happy. He's looking to change history. I
always like when guys want to change history. Good luck
with that. And the thoroughbred has bolted off into the prairie,
has left the barn. You can now close the barn door.
But the horse is out there running them up, bolting away.
(05:10):
Not a prudent strategy. Now, why the deadline is passing?
This afternoon? The deadline passes, and you are at that
point if you're Josh Jacobs, your sol as I understand.
If you don't agree to a new contract, you are
sorry out of luck in terms of getting that contract.
(05:30):
You either play for the franchise tag or you are
not going to play. But you're not going to get
a new contract. Doesn't matter. If you cry, shout out
and pound the table, it does not matter. And here
we are, so Josh Jacobs at loggerheads with the Raiders.
His GPS is set for war path. He is on
(05:54):
the war path, Josh Jacobs, foaming at the mouth, working
himself into a nice lather, and he needs to be
talked down from the ledge on top of the bellagio.
He's out there looking at the fountains debating whether or
not to jump into the fountains at the bolagio. Now,
why is that? Why is that ten point one million dollars?
(06:18):
That is the salary he will have to settle for.
That's the scratcher ticket that he's gonna have to settle
for the consolation prize. If he doesn't get a new deal,
you should be able to set yourself up. I'm not
a financial maven, but I would think for ten point
one million dollars after taxes, maybe that's only four million dollars,
but you should be okay, all right. Based on game checks,
(06:40):
he's gonna get over five hundred and fifty thousand dollars
per game check from the Raiders. Now, furthermore, as we
move to another running back who's not happy, and that
would be in the New York tri state area, they're
actually in New Jersey. Does Saquon Barkley smoke the peace
pipe with the Giant? So I'm gonna go I'm gonna go. Yes.
(07:06):
In terms of him playing for the Giants, He's not
gonna get a contract, so I'm not going that far.
But in terms of him ending up actually on the
Giants this year and not missing Week one against the
Cowboys to try to send some kind of message, even
though he's made a lot of money, he's not getting
the contract his heart desires. But if you look around,
ultimately we are betting that Barkley does show up to
(07:30):
the New York locker room there before he gets docked
a game check, and he'll sit around with Vanillovic. They'll
hold hands around the campfire and they will sing Kumbaya
and it'll be magical. It'll be a spiritual experience. Now,
why is that? Because Barkley does very, very well for
(07:53):
himself from supplemental income. That supplemental income is dependent on
you playing for the Giants. So Saquon can enjoy the
side hustle as a huckster and pitchman to the stars.
Why not playing in the Big Apple. It is estimated
that Barkley makes around five million dollars extra at least
(08:16):
per year hoaring himself out to Madison Avenue. And we're
talking about endorsements for headphones, for donuts, for Nike, Pepsi, Toyota, Visa,
streaming services, all that. So it's not only the money
you'd get from the Giants, it's also all the other goodies,
all the other perks that you get. So why would
(08:37):
you mess around with that? You wouldn't mess around with that.
So eventually they will work things out. But I wouldn't
be worried about getting there at the beginning of training
camp because that's busy body works. So who cares about that.
You just wait a little bit. He's in shape anyways, trees.
His legs are like tree trunks. So so be it. Now,
parting shot. Why let's go over to Jacksonville. Why was
(08:59):
Evan in were I'm able to get a deal done
with the Jags while the running backs were not able
to get anything done. They just had to put it
in their fanny pack and walk away. So he had
a competitive advantage, Evan Ingram. It's all about property values. Location, location, location,
(09:23):
the neighborhood, the schools, the restaurants, the bars, the amenities,
all of that. The transit, the public transit. All of
it was good. The roads were good. All of this
better if you are a tight end. We all know
that at this point running backs are living on the
hard scrabble streets. I say that, of course, metaphorically, because
ten million dollars. If I got paid ten million, or
(09:45):
you got ten paid ten million dollars, we would call
all of our friends and anyone we ever went to
high school with and say I just got ten million dollars,
Holy crap, And people would be impressed by that. But
if you're running back making ten million dollars, it's like, oh, man,
I'm a loser. I'm a loser. But that's the thing, right,
running Backs, by NFL standards, reside in shantytown, and you
(10:09):
are easily replaced. You're like Q tips. You're like a
nice Q tip if you're a running back, and you're
very valuable. If you've ever had your ear all jammed
up with gunk and you need a Q tip to
clean it out a little bit. There the little cotton
swab and you get all that gunk got there, that
orange gou out of your ear, and you feel better
a little bit. You look at it, you're like, well,
(10:29):
that's disgusting. You throw it away, You toss it aside,
and then you get another one and it gets a
nice burial at a landfill to be named later. But
it should be pointed out. It should be pointed out
to you if you're interested in these kind of things.
Teams that draft players in the first and second round,
you were expected to get a starting player in the
first and second round of the NFL draft. And it
(10:51):
is interesting to know the Jacksonville, with their second round pick,
the sixty first overall selection in the twenty twenty three
college draft, drafted tight end Brenton Strange, which is strange, strange, strange,
and then some from Penn State, the Penn State Happy
Valley in the second round. So you drafted a tight
(11:12):
end in the second round of the draft, and you're
now still paying Evan Ingram, not just for this year,
but you're giving him guaranteed money, an extra thirteen million
large over the next three years. Something smells a little off,
maybe a little strange, shall we say, a little strange there.
(11:33):
And of course there's plenty of running backs. They grow
on trees, I believe, so you don't have to pay
a running back. There's also a fair amount of tight ends,
and the Jags have decided to pay their tight end
even though they drafted another tight end. It is the

Fox Sports Radio Studios. It's Ben Maller and.
Speaker 1 (14:00):
We roll on. Coming up later this hour, we will
have the Mallar Militia feud. The Mallar militia feud that'll
be coming up later on in the hour. Got some
big name callers lined up ready to go. So exciting,
unbelievable the content, and you'll, of course be the judge
(14:21):
of that. Ferg Dog says, in response to your chocolate
chip cookie Mallard monologue from earlier, do your cookies pair
well with vanilla ice cream or are they better eaten
by themselves? Well, Ferg Dog, it's a great question. That's
the kind of content we need on sports radio. Forget
the sports, just talk about cookies. So here's the way
(14:42):
I would answer that the perfect dessert, and I came
to the age of reason. I figured this out. The
perfect dessert is two chocolate chip cookies and then a
double scoop of vanilla ice cream slammed in between them.
That is perfect. And don't shake your head no in
(15:02):
the other room, that is perfection is the greatest dessert.
Now my cookies are I did not design these to
be paired with vanilla ice cream in terms of that regard,
because I could have made them thicker, but these cookies
are are thin, lean, and mean for rapid consumption.
Speaker 4 (15:21):
I have to disagree with you, Ben. I believe the
ultimate way to enjoy the combination of ice cream and
cookie is the uh, the pizza cookie style. Because Kuzuki, yes,
that is correct. I think that one's like trademarks.
Speaker 1 (15:39):
You're Italian heritage coop.
Speaker 4 (15:40):
But no, I'm telling you, no, no, no, listen, listen to me.
There's there's logic behind this, and and I'm gonna explain
to you why you're wrong. In order to have the
like chocolate chip cookie ice cream sandwich, yep, those cookies
need to be firm enough to hold the ice cream.
Speaker 1 (15:55):
That's correct.
Speaker 4 (15:55):
But the ultimate cookie is the one that's kind of
like medium medium rare cookie where it's a little bit
under baked. And so if you get the pizza cookie,
you got the deep dish to where the center's kind
of still under baked, but it's hot enough you can
still keep it hot to wear the ice cream kind
of melting with it, and then you just got this gooey,
delicious mess with the ice cream sandwich. The cookie can't
(16:17):
be like straight out of the oven. It's gotta be
cooled down and it's gotta be more firm. It's just
it's not the proper way to enjoy ice cream and cooking.
Speaker 3 (16:26):
Well, it's a well thought out argument.
Speaker 1 (16:27):
That's not a great take, But listen, I'm not pazuki.
I want the record to show I love the pazuki,
and I've eaten many puzukis in my day. In fact,
I got fat in part because of my love of pazukies.
So there's that. But I'm telling you two delicious chocolate
chip cookies on a warm day, see the pazuki. You
(16:48):
gotta eat it. The warm chocolate chip on a warm day.
It doesn't quite worry the ice cream yet to eat
it fast? The ice cream melts, the cookie sandwich. You
can take your time. You don't have to be in
a rush. You take a couple of bites, You look
at the grass grow, You go back, You take a
couple more bites. You're good to go.
Speaker 4 (17:08):
Let us know who's right, Melan Melissia.
Speaker 1 (17:10):
Yeah, I'll I'll put a poll up. No, we don't
need you. All right, let's go to the phones. David
is in sale of Morgan. What's going on? David? Welcome?
Speaker 5 (17:23):
Hey, Ben, it's good to be with you. I have
a question for you, Ben. Okay, So AI has taken
over so many different things the music industry. We have
a local radio talk show host, a female out here
that was being supplemented by artificial intelligence that was covering her.
How do we know in the future we're not going
to get an artificial intelligence?
Speaker 1 (17:45):
Ben Mallard, Well, the good news is this show has
no intelligence, so that would be the only intelligence. If
you had artificial intelligence, that would be it. So you
don't worry about that. And I promise you this company
is working on artificial intelligence. They will not waste in
the middle of the night though. That will be daytime.
That is not overnight. That is daytime. Content is what
(18:06):
that is.
Speaker 5 (18:07):
Hey been You're a lot of fun. I listened to
you every night. You and Coop and and David.
Speaker 1 (18:13):
Answer the question, stop sucking up? David answer the question.
Pazuki or ice cream sandwich with two thick chocolate chip
cookies with vanilla ice cream in the middle.
Speaker 5 (18:25):
I'm going with the the sandwich.
Speaker 1 (18:28):
Yeah, you lose, Coop. Thank you, David, very kind, go away.
Speaker 4 (18:33):
David doesn't even know what a perzuki is. You described
you just went to great detailing.
Speaker 1 (18:39):
You did a ven diagram on a pazuki? Is what
you did? You You talk more about a perzuki than
the people that sell the pazuki. Seriously, what's that restaurant.
I'm trying to think of the name of it, the DJs. Yes,
is that that's a national change? Yeah, I believe, Yeah,
they have the pazuki. It's a good deal. Absolutely. Let's
go to the phones again. Let's go because I'm a
(18:59):
glutton for punishment. Let's say hello to the raigning caller
of the Year from Cincinnati. Even though his team has
fallen on hard times, all of a sudden you got
the dexter. Dick, Hi, Dick, Hey, how are you well?
If I was any better, I'd be a Red, but
(19:20):
not a Cincinnati Red. What happened? What happened? You read?
Speaker 6 (19:23):
So it was last night.
Speaker 7 (19:26):
I tried to call.
Speaker 6 (19:27):
Everybody was sort of they were mad about Buddy Bell.
But if the Bats were silent, weren't they I didn't
understand that they just collapsed?
Speaker 1 (19:37):
Why were they mad at Buddy Bell?
Speaker 6 (19:41):
Some call at some call that he didn't like, and
they ejected him, and everybody was complaining about he should
be he made such a scene. But I'm telling him,
they've got an eight game stand, Ben, and if they
lose like seven or eight in a row, they're going
to roll up there.
Speaker 1 (19:59):
Because well, but Buddy Bell, he's like in the front
office for the Reds. Right, He's not managing the team anymore, right,
he's the.
Speaker 6 (20:06):
Front Oh man, he's just a team.
Speaker 1 (20:10):
You know, he's the general, he's not the manager. Yeah,
but I just wanted to say, yeah, David Bell, But yeah,
all those bells are the same, right, Yeah, yeah, I
know they're all the same. You here one bell? How
many bells you heard over the years? I've heard so
many bells, Yeah, a lot of bells.
Speaker 7 (20:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (20:29):
Any advice you want to give the Reds here, Dick
and how they can turn this around. They're two games
back now in the in the National League Central and
you look at the wild card standings and now a
tough weekend for the Reds and they're two games back
in the wild card base.
Speaker 6 (20:42):
But they just have to come back to the way
they were playing, I guess, because well, no next Monday,
you know, they got a ten game homestand and everybody's
building them up hopefully, but curse. I've been phoning the
Guardigans a little bit. They're still in first place, though
they're doing pretty good.
Speaker 1 (20:59):
Are you cheating on the Reds? You go out to
the Guardians? Yeah, you are, believe. Now state it's state fair.
It's a county fair, state fair season. Now we're in
the summertime. Any appearances at the local county or state fair,
Dick and Dayton, not like.
Speaker 6 (21:15):
We were when excuse me, Jack was there?
Speaker 1 (21:18):
Oh Jack, Eddie Jack was there?
Speaker 6 (21:21):
Yeah, Jack had left. We played everywhere the last ten years.
We used to go to the dark county fair. We go.
Speaker 1 (21:33):
Now, do you like fair food, Dick and Dayton?
Speaker 6 (21:36):
I like pizza.
Speaker 1 (21:38):
That's a drop. Well, we don't do drops anymore.
Speaker 7 (21:40):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (21:41):
Now, I made some garlic parmesan twists this weekend which
were to die for. I think it's the greatest thing
I've ever put in my mouth, just amazing. No, I
won't be a drop because there's no drugs. He told me,
no drops, Eddie. Have you ever had garlic parmesan twist?
Speaker 6 (21:56):
Dick and Dayton, No, I bet they're good, though.

that sucks, and I have one coming up. And when
I took the job, I took it for him. Uh
(26:15):
but I don't think it's they're tough. They're tough moves
and uh so I want to be there and be
a part of that. So that's why I'm doing what
I'm doing.
Speaker 1 (26:23):
All right, Well, that's it's a good thing. It's a
terrible situation when that happens. But we're glad you're there.
Moving man, Matt, my man, be safe on the on
the highways. Thanks for the photo. I will let you
know what management says. Hopefully they do not fire me
for that photo. But we thank you and thank you.

Speaker 1 (26:52):
Okay, thank you all. I gotta go. Let's go to
Marcel in Brooklyn. Hello Marcel top in the morning.
Speaker 9 (26:59):
Ben and Mark and Koop do you look good to
see you on this Monday morning?
Speaker 1 (27:05):
Are you looking at me? You stalker? No? So check
this out. MESSI price gouging. Marcel inter Miami welcomed Messi.
You know who that is, by the way, Yes, he
plays for the Marlins. He's a left handed specialist out
of the bullpen for the Marlins. Messi. So enter Miami
(27:29):
welcomed Messi. They had this big gallow welcome over the
weekend and they were price gouging. You want to take
a guess how much they were charging for a hot
dog at the time, all the time, how much do
you think they were charging for a hot dog?
Speaker 9 (27:47):
Never cost never cost.
Speaker 1 (27:49):
Anything, never cost that. See, this is why Marcel is
the caller of the Year in the past. Here this
calls liked it from Eddi. You want to take a
guess how much were they charging for a hot dog
at the Messia event there?
Speaker 9 (28:01):
Oh, that's from Loan Depole Park. That's where Miami is.
Speaker 1 (28:07):
That's Messi's a left handed pitcher for the Marlins out
of the bullpen. We learned that from Marcel yesterday.
Speaker 3 (28:12):
Yeah, I'll go. You know, I'm really good at these games.
Let's go ten.
Speaker 1 (28:17):
Dollars, ten dollars, ten dollars. Okay, you agree with that, Marcel.
Speaker 9 (28:22):
I do agree with Eddie and everyone.
Speaker 1 (28:25):
Mark Oh no, we're not doing that. The answer is
that's too low. They charged fourteen to seventy five for
a hot dog?
Speaker 9 (28:35):
Are you serious? Are you siious?
Speaker 1 (28:41):
Well I am on sirious XM satellite rader right now,
But the answer is yes, fourteen seventy five. Now I
can go to Costco get a hot dog and a
drink for a dollar fifty. But in Miami they were
gouging the soccer fans. They're fourteen to seventy five. If
you want to buy a Messy jersey, that'll set you
back two hundred dollars.
Speaker 9 (29:00):
In a minute. I don't say Leon Liona Messi is
not playing for the Marlins in Miami.
Speaker 1 (29:05):
He's not.
Speaker 9 (29:06):
He is AMFT right now inter Ma law into Miami.
That's the same.
Speaker 1 (29:13):
So he's no longer pitching for the Marlins. No, Sir,
I thought Messi was a tight end for the Dolphins.
He telling me he's not playing.
Speaker 9 (29:20):
That's the Dolphins set, you know.
Speaker 1 (29:22):
Yeah, all right, anyway, that's five seventy five for a
Bavarian pretzel.
Speaker 7 (29:27):
Oh my's not that bad dollars.
Speaker 1 (29:29):
That's that's that's that's a reasonable price. Yeah, but still
it's not the dos not that much. I love those,

Yeah, you're a pussy.
Speaker 7 (36:16):
All right.

Speaker 7 (38:25):
Kevin
Hello and welcome. It's our number four, our four. You
smell that deadline day for franchise tag players in the NFL.
How ugly are things going between Josh Jacobs and the Raiders?
Does Sequon Barkley smoke the peace pipe with the Giants
(00:21):
before the deadline? And why was Evan Ingram able to
get a deal done in Jacksonville while nobody else at
this point has been able to do it. We'll talk
about all that. Have a wonderful start to your week
here on a Monday. Thank you, Thank you, thank you
for downloading and subscribing and making it a habit here
it is our number four. Enjoy The music is about
(00:47):
to stop for certain football players today. Welcome, in the
beginning of another hour of the Ben Mathers Show. We
are in the air, every side by side. We live
under the same roof, coast to coast, border, the border
and beyond on the mast and thunderously powerful microphones of
(01:12):
fsre emmating live from the cookwear as we keep the
pot boiling all night long. We are broadcasting live from
the tire rack dot com studios. Tyer rack dot Com
will help you get there in unmatched selection, fast, free
shipping free, road hazard protection, over ten thousand recommended installars,
(01:35):
tyer rack dot com, the way tire buying shite, and
we are back in the audio Dojoe Our lead this
hour comes from the NFL roster shuffle. We talked earlier
in the overnight about DeAndre Hopkins spurning the Patriots, saying,
screw you, Bellacheck, I ain't going to play for the
(01:55):
pats I'm out of here, you Patsy's and he's instead
going to play for the Tennessee Titans. Did a monologue
on that. It'll be available for download at the end
of this hour, but we can talk more about that
if you want. But the focus here with training camp
sent to open up around the NFL this week, we
are just days away. In fact, I think some teams
(02:16):
start to report to training camp tomorrow tomorrow tomorrow. But
for those fans that are wondering about the franchise tag,
those who are looking at the football on this thing,
what's going on with that franchise tag, Well, today's a
big day. You either get a deal done by this
afternoon or you are locked in purgatory. Of course, rich purgatory.
(02:38):
You paid a lot of money, so one of the
franchise tag players has agreed to a long term deal
just before the deadline. And if you have not heard,
maybe not, maybe you're not paying that close attention because
you actually had stuff to do this weekend. We have
been informed the tight end, Evan Ingram of the Jaguars,
has agreed to a three year contract for forty one
(02:59):
million dollars. But it's really twenty four million guaranteed. And
he would have made eleven point three million. How would
he have gotten by a lot of soup kitchen, a
lot of Ramen noodles. But instead he'll be able to
live the life of Riley. Twenty four million guaranteed and
that's what he's going to get now over the next
(03:19):
couple of years. While Ingram got the long term contract,
he got paid. It's not going to happen. It would appear,
based on the noise around the NFL for the franchise
tag running backs that Josh Jacobs with the Raiders, Sakwon Barkley,
and Tony Pollard, all of them are not going to
(03:40):
get paid. Here specifically, we'll talk about Jacobs here. A
report from Vegas indicated that he and the Raiders are
way to a part to get a deal done. Now,
Jacobs has made some noise that he is not going
to go quietly, So let us discuss the question how
ugly here are things about to get between Josh Jacobs,
(04:02):
the former Alabama or running back, and his pro football
employer are Raiders. So I've got GPS, Campfire, and Q
tips and we will combine all of these things together
and we are gonna make baba Ganoosh is what we're
gonna make because you can eat babag nooge very cost effectively.
(04:24):
It's just eggplant, Just eggplant. You can eat that, no problem.
Now to kick off here Josh Jacobs. I don't know
the guy. I assume you don't know him either, But
based on what we have observed from the watchtower here
from the cat bird seat, Josh Jacobs is spitting mad.
He's spitting loogi's all over the place there. Based on
(04:44):
social media noise, he's ready to dig in his heels
and he's not happy. He's looking to change history. I
always like when guys want to change history. Good luck
with that. And the thoroughbred has bolted off into the prairie,
has left the barn. You can now close the barn door.
But the horse is out there running them up, bolting away.
(05:10):
Not a prudent strategy. Now, why the deadline is passing?
This afternoon? The deadline passes, and you are at that
point if you're Josh Jacobs, your sol as I understand.
If you don't agree to a new contract, you are
sorry out of luck in terms of getting that contract.
(05:30):
You either play for the franchise tag or you are
not going to play. But you're not going to get
a new contract. Doesn't matter. If you cry, shout out
and pound the table, it does not matter. And here
we are, so Josh Jacobs at loggerheads with the Raiders.
His GPS is set for war path. He is on
(05:54):
the war path, Josh Jacobs, foaming at the mouth, working
himself into a nice lather, and he needs to be
talked down from the ledge on top of the bellagio.
He's out there looking at the fountains debating whether or
not to jump into the fountains at the bolagio. Now,
why is that? Why is that ten point one million dollars?
(06:18):
That is the salary he will have to settle for.
That's the scratcher ticket that he's gonna have to settle
for the consolation prize. If he doesn't get a new deal,
you should be able to set yourself up. I'm not
a financial maven, but I would think for ten point
one million dollars after taxes, maybe that's only four million dollars,
but you should be okay, all right. Based on game checks,
(06:40):
he's gonna get over five hundred and fifty thousand dollars
per game check from the Raiders. Now, furthermore, as we
move to another running back who's not happy, and that
would be in the New York tri state area, they're
actually in New Jersey. Does Saquon Barkley smoke the peace
pipe with the Giant? So I'm gonna go I'm gonna go. Yes.
(07:06):
In terms of him playing for the Giants, He's not
gonna get a contract, so I'm not going that far.
But in terms of him ending up actually on the
Giants this year and not missing Week one against the
Cowboys to try to send some kind of message, even
though he's made a lot of money, he's not getting
the contract his heart desires. But if you look around,
ultimately we are betting that Barkley does show up to
(07:30):
the New York locker room there before he gets docked
a game check, and he'll sit around with Vanillovic. They'll
hold hands around the campfire and they will sing Kumbaya
and it'll be magical. It'll be a spiritual experience. Now,
why is that? Because Barkley does very, very well for
(07:53):
himself from supplemental income. That supplemental income is dependent on
you playing for the Giants. So Saquon can enjoy the
side hustle as a huckster and pitchman to the stars.
Why not playing in the Big Apple. It is estimated
that Barkley makes around five million dollars extra at least
(08:16):
per year hoaring himself out to Madison Avenue. And we're
talking about endorsements for headphones, for donuts, for Nike, Pepsi, Toyota, Visa,
streaming services, all that. So it's not only the money
you'd get from the Giants, it's also all the other goodies,
all the other perks that you get. So why would
(08:37):
you mess around with that? You wouldn't mess around with that.
So eventually they will work things out. But I wouldn't
be worried about getting there at the beginning of training
camp because that's busy body works. So who cares about that.
You just wait a little bit. He's in shape anyways, trees.
His legs are like tree trunks. So so be it. Now,
parting shot. Why let's go over to Jacksonville. Why was
(08:59):
Evan in were I'm able to get a deal done
with the Jags while the running backs were not able
to get anything done. They just had to put it
in their fanny pack and walk away. So he had
a competitive advantage, Evan Ingram. It's all about property values. Location, location, location,
(09:23):
the neighborhood, the schools, the restaurants, the bars, the amenities,
all of that. The transit, the public transit. All of
it was good. The roads were good. All of this
better if you are a tight end. We all know
that at this point running backs are living on the
hard scrabble streets. I say that, of course, metaphorically, because
ten million dollars. If I got paid ten million, or
(09:45):
you got ten paid ten million dollars, we would call
all of our friends and anyone we ever went to
high school with and say I just got ten million dollars,
Holy crap, And people would be impressed by that. But
if you're running back making ten million dollars, it's like, oh, man,
I'm a loser. I'm a loser. But that's the thing, right,
running Backs, by NFL standards, reside in shantytown, and you
(10:09):
are easily replaced. You're like Q tips. You're like a
nice Q tip if you're a running back, and you're
very valuable. If you've ever had your ear all jammed
up with gunk and you need a Q tip to
clean it out a little bit. There the little cotton
swab and you get all that gunk got there, that
orange gou out of your ear, and you feel better
a little bit. You look at it, you're like, well,
(10:29):
that's disgusting. You throw it away, You toss it aside,
and then you get another one and it gets a
nice burial at a landfill to be named later. But
it should be pointed out. It should be pointed out
to you if you're interested in these kind of things.
Teams that draft players in the first and second round,
you were expected to get a starting player in the
first and second round of the NFL draft. And it
(10:51):
is interesting to know the Jacksonville, with their second round pick,
the sixty first overall selection in the twenty twenty three
college draft, drafted tight end Brenton Strange, which is strange, strange, strange,
and then some from Penn State, the Penn State Happy
Valley in the second round. So you drafted a tight
(11:12):
end in the second round of the draft, and you're
now still paying Evan Ingram, not just for this year,
but you're giving him guaranteed money, an extra thirteen million
large over the next three years. Something smells a little off,
maybe a little strange, shall we say, a little strange there.
(11:33):
And of course there's plenty of running backs. They grow
on trees, I believe, so you don't have to pay
a running back. There's also a fair amount of tight ends,
and the Jags have decided to pay their tight end
even though they drafted another tight end. It is the

chip cookie Mallard monologue from earlier, do your cookies pair
well with vanilla ice cream or are they better eaten
by themselves? Well, Ferg Dog, it's a great question. That's
the kind of content we need on sports radio. Forget
the sports, just talk about cookies. So here's the way
(14:42):
I would answer that the perfect dessert, and I came
to the age of reason. I figured this out. The
perfect dessert is two chocolate chip cookies and then a
double scoop of vanilla ice cream slammed in between them.
That is perfect. And don't shake your head no in
(15:02):
the other room, that is perfection is the greatest dessert.
Now my cookies are I did not design these to
be paired with vanilla ice cream in terms of that regard,
because I could have made them thicker, but these cookies
are are thin, lean, and mean for rapid consumption.
Speaker 4 (15:21):
I have to disagree with you, Ben. I believe the
ultimate way to enjoy the combination of ice cream and
cookie is the uh, the pizza cookie style. Because Kuzuki, yes,
that is correct. I think that one's like trademarks.
Speaker 1 (15:39):
You're Italian heritage coop.
Speaker 4 (15:40):
But no, I'm telling you, no, no, no, listen, listen to me.
There's there's logic behind this, and and I'm gonna explain
to you why you're wrong. In order to have the
like chocolate chip cookie ice cream sandwich, yep, those cookies
need to be firm enough to hold the ice cream.
Speaker 1 (15:55):
That's correct.
Speaker 4 (15:55):
But the ultimate cookie is the one that's kind of
like medium medium rare cookie where it's a little bit
under baked. And so if you get the pizza cookie,
you got the deep dish to where the center's kind
of still under baked, but it's hot enough you can
still keep it hot to wear the ice cream kind
of melting with it, and then you just got this gooey,
delicious mess with the ice cream sandwich. The cookie can't
(16:17):
be like straight out of the oven. It's gotta be
cooled down and it's gotta be more firm. It's just
it's not the proper way to enjoy ice cream and cooking.
Speaker 3 (16:26):
Well, it's a well thought out argument.
Speaker 1 (16:27):
That's not a great take, But listen, I'm not pazuki.
I want the record to show I love the pazuki,
and I've eaten many puzukis in my day. In fact,
I got fat in part because of my love of pazukies.
So there's that. But I'm telling you two delicious chocolate
chip cookies on a warm day, see the pazuki. You
(16:48):
gotta eat it. The warm chocolate chip on a warm day.
It doesn't quite worry the ice cream yet to eat
it fast? The ice cream melts, the cookie sandwich. You
can take your time. You don't have to be in
a rush. You take a couple of bites, You look
at the grass grow, You go back, You take a
couple more bites. You're good to go.
Speaker 4 (17:08):
Let us know who's right, Melan Melissia.
Speaker 1 (17:10):
Yeah, I'll I'll put a poll up. No, we don't
need you. All right, let's go to the phones. David
is in sale of Morgan. What's going on? David? Welcome?
Speaker 5 (17:23):
Hey, Ben, it's good to be with you. I have
a question for you, Ben. Okay, So AI has taken
over so many different things the music industry. We have
a local radio talk show host, a female out here
that was being supplemented by artificial intelligence that was covering her.
How do we know in the future we're not going
to get an artificial intelligence?
Speaker 1 (17:45):
Ben Mallard, Well, the good news is this show has
no intelligence, so that would be the only intelligence. If
you had artificial intelligence, that would be it. So you
don't worry about that. And I promise you this company
is working on artificial intelligence. They will not waste in
the middle of the night though. That will be daytime.
That is not overnight. That is daytime. Content is what
(18:06):
that is.
Speaker 5 (18:07):
Hey been You're a lot of fun. I listened to
you every night. You and Coop and and David.
Speaker 1 (18:13):
Answer the question, stop sucking up? David answer the question.
Pazuki or ice cream sandwich with two thick chocolate chip
cookies with vanilla ice cream in the middle.
Speaker 5 (18:25):
I'm going with the the sandwich.
Speaker 1 (18:28):
Yeah, you lose, Coop. Thank you, David, very kind, go away.
Speaker 4 (18:33):
David doesn't even know what a perzuki is. You described
you just went to great detailing.
Speaker 1 (18:39):
You did a ven diagram on a pazuki? Is what
you did? You You talk more about a perzuki than
the people that sell the pazuki. Seriously, what's that restaurant.
I'm trying to think of the name of it, the DJs. Yes,
is that that's a national change? Yeah, I believe, Yeah,
they have the pazuki. It's a good deal. Absolutely. Let's
go to the phones again. Let's go because I'm a
(18:59):
glutton for punishment. Let's say hello to the raigning caller
of the Year from Cincinnati. Even though his team has
fallen on hard times, all of a sudden you got
the dexter. Dick, Hi, Dick, Hey, how are you well?
If I was any better, I'd be a Red, but
(19:20):
not a Cincinnati Red. What happened? What happened? You read?
Speaker 6 (19:23):
So it was last night.
Speaker 7 (19:26):
I tried to call.
Speaker 6 (19:27):
Everybody was sort of they were mad about Buddy Bell.
But if the Bats were silent, weren't they I didn't
understand that they just collapsed?
Speaker 1 (19:37):
Why were they mad at Buddy Bell?
Speaker 6 (19:41):
Some call at some call that he didn't like, and
they ejected him, and everybody was complaining about he should
be he made such a scene. But I'm telling him,
they've got an eight game stand, Ben, and if they
lose like seven or eight in a row, they're going
to roll up there.
Speaker 1 (19:59):
Because well, but Buddy Bell, he's like in the front
office for the Reds. Right, He's not managing the team anymore, right,
he's the.
Speaker 6 (20:06):
Front Oh man, he's just a team.
Speaker 1 (20:10):
You know, he's the general, he's not the manager. Yeah,
but I just wanted to say, yeah, David Bell, But yeah,
all those bells are the same, right, Yeah, yeah, I
know they're all the same. You here one bell? How
many bells you heard over the years? I've heard so
many bells, Yeah, a lot of bells.
Speaker 7 (20:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (20:29):
Any advice you want to give the Reds here, Dick
and how they can turn this around. They're two games
back now in the in the National League Central and
you look at the wild card standings and now a
tough weekend for the Reds and they're two games back
in the wild card base.
Speaker 6 (20:42):
But they just have to come back to the way
they were playing, I guess, because well, no next Monday,
you know, they got a ten game homestand and everybody's
building them up hopefully, but curse. I've been phoning the
Guardigans a little bit. They're still in first place, though
they're doing pretty good.
Speaker 1 (20:59):
Are you cheating on the Reds? You go out to
the Guardians? Yeah, you are, believe. Now state it's state fair.
It's a county fair, state fair season. Now we're in
the summertime. Any appearances at the local county or state fair,
Dick and Dayton, not like.

You know who that is, by the way, Yes, he
plays for the Marlins. He's a left handed specialist out
of the bullpen for the Marlins. Messi. So enter Miami
(27:29):
welcomed Messi. They had this big gallow welcome over the
weekend and they were price gouging. You want to take
a guess how much they were charging for a hot
dog at the time, all the time, how much do
you think they were charging for a hot dog?
Speaker 9 (27:47):
Never cost never cost.
Speaker 1 (27:49):
Anything, never cost that. See, this is why Marcel is
the caller of the Year in the past. Here this
calls liked it from Eddi. You want to take a
guess how much were they charging for a hot dog
at the Messia event there?
Speaker 9 (28:01):

Speaker 1 (28:07):

Mark Oh no, we're not doing that. The answer is
that's too low. They charged fourteen to seventy five for
a hot dog?

Well I am on sirious XM satellite rader right now,
But the answer is yes, fourteen seventy five. Now I
can go to Costco get a hot dog and a
drink for a dollar fifty. But in Miami they were
gouging the soccer fans. They're fourteen to seventy five. If
you want to buy a Messy jersey, that'll set you
back two hundred dollars.
