Speaker 1 (00:01):
Well, it's our numbber for our number four. And here

the Dolphins, bad football, good talk radio. Yet again, yet
again a quarterback unhinged, quarterback unhinged? How did you read?
Dolphins quarterback to a tongue of bay Loa, admitting he's

(00:23):
too short and unable to see over the Dolphins offensive line.
Thus he was unable to complete passes to Jalen Wattle
in the last game, even though Wattle was open. And
how much stalk do you put into the Bengals saying
they have no intention of trading Trey Hendrickson currently they tried.

(00:45):

I leave this hour from South Florida. Some malor math

(03:14):
as we try not to mince our words here, malar
math still mallar algebra. Bad football equals good talk radio
to infinity and beyond. I'm telling you the Miami Dolphins
that is a football team, not a good one. The
Dolphins are currently swimming into the chat. So one week

(03:36):
after Tua let the world know Tua Tongue of Bai
Loa that his teammates were lazy, laggerts and don't show
up to team meetings. They skip meetings, he then was
forced to apologize, Well, he's back with another hum dingger,
a mouthwatering hum ninger from a starting quarterback in the NFL.

Speaker 2 (03:55):
If you did not hear this.

Speaker 1 (03:56):
Perhaps not Dolphins quarterback Tua Tongue trying to explain why
he was unable to find wide receiver Jalen Wattle more
than just a few times. More than just a few times.
He was only targeted four times against the Cleveland Browns. Now,
Tua explained the reason he couldn't get the ball to

(04:19):
Jalen Waddle is because he couldn't see Jalen Wattle, because
he couldn't see over the offensive line or the defensive line.

Speaker 2 (04:29):
Now, I'm not making this up. I'm being serious here.
I'm being serious.

Speaker 1 (04:33):
So Jalen Wattle was only targeted four times, he caught
just one pass for fifteen yards, and Tua I guess
it wasn't important enough for the editing department here to
get it.

Speaker 2 (04:45):
But Tua revealed that his height now he's.

Speaker 1 (04:48):
Listed at six feet tall kept him for being able
to get the ball over the line because he couldn't
see He said, quote, I'm not the tallest guy back there.
Sometimes when that happens, you don't want to just throw
it blindly. All right, it's a good jumping off point.
So let us discuss the question, how do you read

(05:12):
into two A tongue of I looa admitting that he's
too short and unable to see over the Dolphins offensive line.

Speaker 2 (05:21):
That's why he couldn't get the receiver of the ball.
All right, so this is this is next level yet
again my take on it.

Speaker 1 (05:28):
I've got signature shoe Plato and Charlie Chaplin, and we'll
combine all of these things together and we are going
to make the Baba Gadoosh, We're gonna make the barba
now the lead off this and I wish we had
to sound but it's really good.

Speaker 2 (05:45):
I guess I have to send everything in. But anyway,
it was great because.

Speaker 1 (05:49):
Two is like totally calm and all that stuff. He's
totally losing I chill out and all that stuff. And
uh and then it's like he just doesn't seem to
realize like the value we haven't all right, aparently we
have it, all right, let's play it and then.

Speaker 2 (06:02):
Listen listen out.

Speaker 1 (06:03):
He's just like, oh, yeah, I can't really see over
the offensive line, so it's probably not a gooday to
throw it.

Speaker 2 (06:07):
Take a list.

Speaker 3 (06:08):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (06:08):
I think with that some of it has to do
with being able to see guys with their guys also
up front and our guys and I'm not the tallest
guy in the back there either, so being able to
see and then you know, sometimes when that happens, you
don't want to just throw it blindly, and you got
to progress. So I think that that had some merit

(06:29):
to reasons as to why that happened for a while.

Speaker 1 (06:33):
Okay, so there you go. I couldn't see, you can
get him the ball. And this is a very calm
about it.

Speaker 2 (06:37):
So again, how do you read into that?

Speaker 1 (06:38):
Well, this reads like a great American myth that I
was told in elementary school. Tua is the George Washington
of quarterbacks. Bring in the cherry tree. I cannot tell
a lie. It's the Tua Unplugged comedy Tour. He's unfiltered
and unplugged coming to a city near year. Now, normally

(06:59):
guys throw out out all kinds of white lies and
all that. They'll spin it. They'll make excuses about coverage
or the defense did this, or I'm meant to not
throw the ball that way because of X, Y and Z,
But not my manta truth and broadcasting.

Speaker 2 (07:16):
The word I will use here, and I think it's
the proper word is apathetic.

Speaker 1 (07:19):
That he straight up is at the point now he's
like listen, I got my money. I'm good. I don't
want to lie. I'm not gonna lie. He's like, yeah,
I couldn't see my own white out. I couldn't see him.
Tongue Baila is. He's gonna get his own signature shoe.
I on whether it's Nike's gonna give it to him
for somebody else, but he's gonna get his own signature shoe.

(07:40):
And it's going to be a shoe where they slap
the swoosh on platform cleats.

Speaker 2 (07:46):
He'll be the first NFL quarterback to wear platform cleats.

Speaker 1 (07:49):
And then Kyler Murray's gonna get some, and several other
quarterbacks who are fun sized, we'll get them.

Speaker 3 (07:57):
Now.

Speaker 2 (07:57):
Each order, each order of.

Speaker 1 (08:00):
The Swoosh, I'll call him Nike Shoes Swosh platform cleats.
Each order will come with a booster seat with your
favorite team logo on it, so you'll get that, and
you'll get a little soap box like a little step
you can stand on.

Speaker 2 (08:14):
Now, this is what happens. This is what happens when
you give a guy.

Speaker 1 (08:18):
Two hundred and twelve million dollars before he proves he
can elevate an NFL team. They were so excited to
give two of the money they had their forever quarterbacks.

Speaker 2 (08:30):
The two got paid and the Miami.

Speaker 1 (08:33):
Dolphins got played. It's kind of like dodgeball. That is
a bold strategy, Cotton. The deal is paying off like
you spend all the mon like Sir scratch Off who
used to call the show regularly buying thousands of lottery
tickets and then thinking he was gonna get rich when
he just blew thousands of dollars. Now furthermore to Cincinnati

(08:57):
we go, where the streets are talking and insider reports
say the Bengals have quote no intention, no intention of
trading defensive star Trey Hendrickson. The trade deadline is coming
up a week from Tuesday. So the question how much
stalk do you put into the Bengals claiming they have

(09:19):
no intention of trading their star Trey Hendrickson, and at
least currently so words are a big deal and all
trades are surprised. It's very similar to the comments we
talked about with the Raiders and their situation. In fact,
I think the wordage, the verbiage was very similar to

(09:42):
what the Raiders did.

Speaker 2 (09:43):
They said, we have no intention.

Speaker 1 (09:45):
Could you imagine if the opposite had happened. So yeah,
we absolutely would love to unload this dope's ass and
get him as far away from our team as possible.

Speaker 2 (09:59):
They'll never do that. The words that matter on this
one are no intention.

Speaker 1 (10:06):
That is a That is a tell classic NFL front
office weasel verbiage. It is a dog whistle saying we're
not trading him, but if you make us a really
sexy offer, we'll do it. To paraphrase, it's like me
saying I have no intention of eating that cupcake. I'm

(10:27):
not going to eat the cupcakes. I know it's got
the nice white frosting. I know it's got the sprinkles
on top, and it's really good frosting and it's fresh,
and I'm not going to eat it. I'm just gonna
leave it on the counter. I'm not going to eat that.

Speaker 2 (10:38):
Delicious cupcake with the white frosting on it and the sprinkles.

Speaker 1 (10:41):
I'm not gonna do it. Ten minutes later, it's in
my belly, it's gone. Intentions changed, That's the point, right,
Intentions change. You might intend to eat a pastromi sandwich
for lunch and then you end up eating a taco.

Speaker 2 (10:54):
It just kind of happens.

Speaker 1 (10:56):
It's a soft serve statement. It's like play though it's pliable, pliable.
No intention means we want someone to call us and
give us the Godfather offer.

Speaker 2 (11:08):
You know what else?

Speaker 1 (11:09):
Has no intention Cincinnati paying paying Trey Hendrickson. They have
no intention of paying Trey Hendrickson. The Bengals are not
planning on giving him money many and they're not planning
on doing it.

Speaker 2 (11:23):
So if they're not gonna pay him, the doomsday clock
is ticking. You can almost hear it if you turn
up the volume. Just like there.

Speaker 1 (11:34):
It is so amazing, right, absolutely amazing. So Cincinnati finds
themselves at.

Speaker 2 (11:40):
A fork in the road. Are they gonna go right?
Are they gonna go left? Are they gonna go right
up the gut? What are they gonna do? If someone
offers a premium pick?

Speaker 1 (11:50):
And the Bengals have no intention of paying this guy
because they paid all their money to t Higgins and
Jamar Chase, And no, why not send.

Speaker 2 (11:57):
Him packing right, pack his bags and he'll be gone.
That's it. Next day of delivery. The Bengals. What I'm
trying to tell you, They left the door wide open.

Speaker 1 (12:07):
They left it wide open. And that's what no intention
really means. Using Google Translate, it says, make us an offer.
Make us an offer is what it says. All right,
last thing here, so we stay in the Queen City.
The life of a foot ball hobo talking about Joe Flacco.

(12:31):
And this guy's been bouncing all over the place, the
great journeyman, Garrison Baltimore.

Speaker 2 (12:36):
For years and ever since he left the Ravens. Spends
a year here, a year there, a year everywhere, bouncing around.
In fact, next year he's going to play on the
Dusty Winnemuck Road. Fascinating.

Speaker 1 (12:49):
So why do I bring up Joe Flacco Because Flacco
as the traveling man the highways and byways of North America.
He left the Browns to go play for the Bengals.
He was traded a couple of weeks back. And he's
also left his family behind. His wife and kids, got
five kids. They live in Jersey, and he's fletching around

(13:11):
in Ohio and he's been alone since he got to Cincinnati.

Speaker 2 (13:15):
He's by himself there and his early forties. He's kind of.

Speaker 1 (13:18):
Hanging out and people when they're alone, and sometimes some
people can't handle being alone.

Speaker 2 (13:24):
They just can't deal with it.

Speaker 1 (13:25):
But it does have, according to Joe Flacco, some advantages
he talked about some I don't know do we have
this audio.

Speaker 2 (13:32):
I don't know if we have this audio or no
we have it.

Speaker 1 (13:33):
Okay, here's a Joe Flacco waxing poetic about the things
that are good about not having anyone to have a
nice meal with.

Speaker 2 (13:41):
Take a list.

Speaker 5 (13:42):
I used to see guys sitting at a bar by
themselves or you know, just sitting by themselves eating and
grabbing a little meal out. Like, man, I feel so
bad for that guy. He almost want to go join them.
And now I realize, like that dude was in heaven.

Speaker 1 (13:55):
Yeah I was cut out, but he said heaven at
the end is what he said there, all right, So
that it's the money quote. Flacco's paarently going out eating
by himself and enjoying himself. This is the second straight
day we've had a quarterback eating story. Yesterday was Lamar
Jackson that was enjoying some late night Chinese food and
looked like about as happy as you could be and

(14:15):
looked about as stoned as you could be, according to
the internet video. Now we've got Joe Flacco, who's just
going to all the different restaurants with Justin in Cincinnati.
I bet Justin sits by himself at the bar, not
just Josh. But I bet Justin's by himself eater, eating
that delicious Skyline chili which he loves so much. So
the question where are you at on Bengals quarterback Joe

(14:37):
Flacco singing the praises of eating alone, singing the praises
of being alone. So I am in lockstep with him
one hundred percent.

Speaker 2 (14:48):
Now I eat alone a lot.

Speaker 1 (14:50):
The wife works during the week and she leaves, and
I am eating by myself most of the week.

Speaker 2 (14:55):
Here's the thing, It's not nineteen eighty five. It's not right.

Speaker 1 (14:59):
Nobody nobody's sitting around the table.

Speaker 2 (15:02):
Hey, did you see the nightly news? Did you see
what's going on?

Speaker 1 (15:06):
No, you're not passing the mashed potatoes with the gravy
debating what the front page was on the newspaper, because
no one's reading the newspaper.

Speaker 2 (15:17):
And what happens.

Speaker 1 (15:19):
Whether you're alone or whether you're at a table with
all of your if married with kids and all that.
Everyone around the table, everyone's just colluded to their phones.
Like family, you go to Applebee's family dinner at Applebee's.
It's like a Charlie Chaplin silent film. The only sound
you'll hear is the forks hitting the plate.

Speaker 2 (15:38):
That's it.

Speaker 1 (15:39):
In twenty twenty five, you're never actually alone. You're always
right next to someone. It's a device. Even when you
are alone, you're not all right and honestly being alone,
For like Flacco, it sounds like it's just better Flacco.
In my head, he's probably sitting around the dinner and
his kids are they've got brain rot from TikTok and

(16:00):
all that stuff, and doesn't have to worry about hearing
about the middle school dance recital or while enjoying Mazzarella
sticks with Marinara sauce or whatever.

Speaker 2 (16:11):
So just enjoy a.

Speaker 1 (16:12):
Steak, have a beer, and have silence and your futs
around on your phone.

Speaker 2 (16:18):
And so for Joe Flacco, he's like, oh, that's power.

Speaker 1 (16:21):
That is part And it has been said eating alone
you boost creativity at lower stress.

Speaker 2 (16:27):
There's no small talk, there's no fake smiles or anything
like that.

Speaker 1 (16:30):
So Flacco, what I read into it is he's not lonely.
He's like this is great. He's like I didn't realize
when I was younger, like these guys by themselves are
like this. I think the long the time you get
by yourself times usually when you're on the toilet, and
it's like I can go to a restaurant by myself.
There you go, all right, So it's a new new thing.
I love the fact that Flacco, just like Lamar Jackson,

(16:50):
these guys make gazillions and gazillions of dollars. They're very wealthy,
and yet they I want to go ahead, get my food.
I want to go out and get my food. Yeah,
my wife has institute.

Speaker 2 (17:04):

I gotta go, Mike, but you to feel better, get
out of the hospital. I'm glad you're doing better. That's awesome.
There you go, our buddy, Mike.

Speaker 1 (27:36):
Check that box to the old oath in a hospital,
and we've checked the box. Let's go to John in
South Carolina, where my niece lives. Hello, John, Welcome, what's
going on? John has hung up, so we'll say hello
to Art in San Diego?

Speaker 2 (27:54):
Hello?

Speaker 10 (27:54):
Art?

Speaker 2 (27:55):
What's going on?

Speaker 3 (27:55):
Art? Oh? I'm just doing the graveyard ship. It sucks,
but I want to ask you two questions.

Speaker 2 (28:02):
What does why does it suck? By the way, what's
wrong with the great?

Speaker 3 (28:05):
No one bothers you again? To get up there?

Speaker 9 (28:08):
Like, well, first of all, I'm driving airport employees. Half
of them aren't getting paid. Guys are not getting paid.
They're not they're not a good move flight attendant.

Speaker 3 (28:19):
They're like because they're always that.

Speaker 10 (28:21):
It's a long story, but it's just flight.

Speaker 9 (28:24):
Have a big circle at the Sanio International Airport, go
do this, he too is brand new.

Speaker 3 (28:32):
It's opened, So come on fly to San Diego. But
there you go.

Speaker 1 (28:37):
That's great advice, coach, because the the San Diego Airport
one of the more scary airports is the planes fly
right over downtown San Diego to land.

Speaker 2 (28:45):
It's a little dicey.

Speaker 3 (28:46):
Yeah, oh yeah.

Speaker 9 (28:48):
Ask any pilot they'll tell you, like, dude, this is
the scariest airport to land in two.

Speaker 2 (28:53):
I'm surprised they haven't built it.

Speaker 1 (28:54):
I'm surprised they've never built a new I know it's expensive,
but you think they built one out in the.

Speaker 3 (28:59):
East Countys under construction.

Speaker 9 (29:01):
It's only a construction, like you're tearing down the old
P two to build another T two.

Speaker 3 (29:07):
Hey yeah, I hear you.

Speaker 2 (29:09):
All right, but we have we have serious stuff to
get to here. Art, we have things we need to
break down. We need sports talk is what we.

Speaker 9 (29:16):
Need, Okay, I want to know who you want for
the Padres manager.

Speaker 3 (29:19):
Who should they get?

Speaker 1 (29:21):
I think they should bring back Chris Win, Tony's brother,
Chris Win. I think they should hire him.

Speaker 3 (29:27):
Really he did, I did.

Speaker 1 (29:33):
Tony's not available unfortunately, but I actually did radio with
Chris Win years ago.

Speaker 2 (29:37):
He's I think he's working as a scout or something
like all these guys get scouting jobs. He does radio. Yeah,
yeah he did. He didn't want to yea. Yeah, he
does the broadcasting. Yeah yeah, I hear you. Who do
you want art?

Speaker 9 (29:52):
His radio show is horrible because I'm looking to.

Speaker 2 (30:00):
So they supposed there's no other team to talk about.
Everyone left, There's no one left to talk about.

Speaker 3 (30:07):
Nobody lists. They can't even.

Speaker 2 (30:11):
See.

Speaker 1 (30:12):
When I worked in San Diego radio way, the Chargers
going to the obviously the ads texts they had Marshall
Fulk when I was there was like a stud running
back that was a total beast in San Diego.

Speaker 3 (30:23):
I sign job as the Limo drive Jove Marshall.

Speaker 2 (30:26):
Oh that's good, that's good.

Speaker 9 (30:28):
See yeah, he's a financial advisor now as long as
also doing the running back thing for Eon Sanders.

Speaker 2 (30:34):
Oh that's cool. Nice we'll hustle, all right, let's anyway,
who do you want?

Speaker 3 (30:40):
What about? I gotta go with Minnesota or Charters?

Speaker 2 (30:42):
Who you got Benny versus the Penny? It's on YouTube
right now.

Speaker 1 (30:46):
I took Minnesota plus the three points, so I got
I gotta go, Thank you, buddy.

Speaker 2 (30:51):
But you can find out all about that on YouTube.
Let's go to Nick in Berkeley. Who's next?

Speaker 1 (30:56):
Hello?

Speaker 2 (30:56):
Nick? Welcome?

Speaker 10 (30:59):
Yeah, graves man. I would go with Bruce Bolki then,
but that's just me. But how do you like those
Niners and Warriors?

Speaker 3 (31:06):
Vance?

Speaker 10 (31:07):
The Rams ain't going nowhere, buddy. We're half game up
on you to the half game.

Speaker 2 (31:11):
It's a blessed the season.

Speaker 1 (31:12):
Everyone knows that whoever is a half game up heading
in the week eight, it is all over and the
team that's trailing has no chance to win. You are
absolutely right, Nick, that's good football knowledge. We've never seen
teams fall apart at all. Now the Niners better win
Nick in Houston because Houston blows on offense. You gotta
win that game this weekend.

Speaker 10 (31:32):
Hey, hey, MATC Jones is on fire. I don't even
know if Berdy gonna be back this year. I'm not
even sifting it, scot you know, it is what it is,
turf till you've got you gotten careful with that. But
I just want to say, being that we've been playing
with house money so far, man, I mean, we've lost
a lot of money, so the house money might get
a little low, but there's nothing plays because where we

(31:53):
get it, we're not even healthy without even full boy yet.
So if we pick up another linebacker for me to
either Cincinnati or it's gonna be problems for the rest
of these Cats.

Speaker 2 (32:02):
Man, Well, just touch up and a second, don't get
the Warriors.

Speaker 1 (32:08):
You know, these guys are all gonna get hurt by
the time the playoffs come around, so they look great.

Speaker 2 (32:11):
Yeah, no one's ever healthy. That's my point.

Speaker 1 (32:14):
The point I want to make Nick the brilliant point.
No one ever is healthy by the time they get
to the playoffs. The Niners are already dinged up, their
weather beaten.

Speaker 4 (32:22):
You know.

Speaker 1 (32:22):
The Warriors, they're they're they're not the oldest team. I
think the Clippers are the oldest team, but like half
these guys are gonna be out. So yeah, if Jimmy
Butler's healthy and Steph Curry and oh man, they're being great,
but it's twisted ankle here.

Speaker 2 (32:36):
There'll be some kind of foot injury over there. Twist twisted.
Neeli Givens said the whole thing. All right, thank you, Nick,
I appreciate it.

Speaker 1 (32:45):
Everyone else on hold, if you would like to be
part of the bit we've got coming up, you are
more than welcome there. You know, I just realized Andrea
called up. She said, there's a new moon and we've
had a zany show. We had the call her Corbin
with his dad. Now we've got Mike in Tucson with

(33:07):
his wife in the hospital. It's it has been a
zany night here on there on the show.

Speaker 2 (33:14):
You're gonna want to hear, right, I mean, what is happening.
It's not a full moon though, it's not that. It's
just is it that shadow period that she's talking about.

Speaker 1 (33:25):
Yeah, it's like, I don't know, a lot of people
don't believe in that, Like they think it's like mumbo jum.

Speaker 2 (33:30):
I'll get emails. I don't believe in that astrology stuff.
I don't know if that's it.

Speaker 1 (33:34):
But I'm just telling you from boots on the ground
doing this job over the years, when there's some kind
of cosmic thing that it's like that the Doors song
people are strange, or the ohio Al version.

Speaker 2 (33:46):
It's just it's just wacky, all right.

Speaker 1 (33:49):
By the way, Louke Garrick's Last Yankee Home Jersey sold
Old Laundry two point seven million at auction two point
seven million, and Sean Payton denied that he criticized Russell
Wilson even though he criticized Russell Wilson.

Speaker 2 (34:03):
We have fact or fiction. I'm gonna let it breathe.
