Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello and welcome. It's our numberfall in a big day
on the calendar. If you're a fan of hoops. As
the pro basketball season begins in America, how do you
classify the Yannis Adenta Coombo contract extension with the Bucks
just before opening night? How will that play out in Milwaukee?
(00:23):
And now with the Greek freak signed up, which NBA
stars will be replacing Giannis in feeding the internet clickbait
on changing teams next? And what is your level of
interest in the curtain going up on the NBA regular season.
We'll talk about all that and more right now here.
It is our number four. Have a wonderful Tuesday. The
(00:47):
buck stops here, No, literally, the buck stops Welcome. In
the beginning of another hour of the Ben Malors Show.
We are in the are everywhere partners in crime. As
we know, our message reverberates to the corridors of darkness coast,
(01:09):
the coast, border, the border, and beyond. On the vast
and uncontrollably powerful microphones of fs are emmating live from
the world, a virtual audio world where we escape from
the dystopian real world. We are broadcasting live from the
Tyraq dot Com studios tyraq dot com. We'll help you
(01:32):
get there and unmatched selection, fast, free shipping, free road
hazard protection, and over ten thousand recommended installers. Ty rack
dot com. The way tire buying should be our lead.
This hour coming from pro Bouncy Ball. As the flag
is up on the twenty twenty three to twenty twenty
(01:52):
four NBA season. We'll get to the baseball and the
football coming up in a minute. But between tonight the
beginning of the NBA regular season and eight fourteenth, mark
that on your calendars. That is when the regular season
will have its final games played. So there will be
eighty two regular season games played in one hundred and
seventy three nights. That means that each team will have
(02:15):
ninety one nights off. Nobody plays double headers, so you
have ninety one days off over the course of the season.
Of course, we know that's not enough. Our favorite Hoop
Gladiators still need load management. Cannot expect them to play
eighty two games in one hundred and seventy three days.
It's just too much. So the big story, though, before
(02:38):
we get into that. The big story is from the
Cream City and a nice creamsicle for the hometown team
there in Milwaukee. If you haven't heard yet, maybe not.
On the eve of the NBA regular season beginning, we
have learned the Milwaukee Bucks are gonna continue to get freaky,
as in the Greek freak. Giannis at Denta Koombo has
(03:02):
agreed to a three year contract extension for one hundred
and eighty six million dollars. He would have gotten more,
but he chose to sign the extension. Now, so let
us discuss the question, the question on this one, how
do you classify Giannis Identa Cuombo's contract with the Bucks.
So I've got Bubblegum, the masked singer and QC. Are
(03:27):
you down with me? And we'll get to all that
and we will throw it all against the wall and
we'll see what sticks. And that's what we're gonna go with.
So to tip off, as they say in basketball, the
tip off the festivities. Yannis is a renaissance man. He's
a man of the world. Yannis Denta Cooombo. He talked
(03:47):
to talk and there were multiple stories in I think
it was GQ magazine, a couple other publications where was
Rolling Stone, I believe I forget they were not usual
sports publications. But Yannis dent to Coombo. It doesn't really matter.
He made comments that implied he had a wandering eye
(04:08):
and he was considering what's off in the wild blue
yonder away from Milwaukee, and he essentially issued the Bucks
an ultimatum, you either do what I want or else,
and then, surprise, surprise, surprise, he not only talked to talk,
(04:28):
Giannis walked the walk A dent to Coombo has long
maintained very publicly here this is the last couple of
months that he wanted to be in a situation where
he can contend annually for an NBA title. And consider
this particular act not a statement, not a statement. We're
talking about an action. Actions are more important than statements,
(04:50):
and so his action indicates that he is content that
he believes that the cheese Kurds in Milwaukee are going
to be better than the nice pasta in Miami. All right,
considering that he signed the extension, this is what's known
as a bubble gum situation, or go double mint gum,
(05:13):
double your pleasure, double your fund, because as the Milwaukee
Bucks pay the man the money when they made the
decision to acquire Dame Lillard and the Blazers signed off
on it. That was the ace in the whole. We
all know that right. That was as in the will,
convinced the Greek freak that the franchise is in it
(05:34):
to win it, and it's a discount deal for Milwaukee.
I'd like to give the company here, I work for
a discount deal. They pay me one hundred day three million.
I will not ask for one hundred eighty four one
hundred eighty five million. So Yannis would have been able
to get even more money on the next contract if
he had waited another year, but he decided that he
(05:55):
didn't want to do that, and the old bird in
a hand situation. So he got that and he's good
to go. Now, furthermore, the headline and now from the
transfer portal with Giannis adentakoombo, you can cross his name
out with the markers. So Yiannis is off the board.
He's staying in Milwaukee, and he stays there for a
(06:19):
couple of more seasons, three years to be exact, which
lines up with the Dame Lillard contract. Lillard's Contract's got
three more years and then he's gone. So which NBA stars,
I'm gonna play the merry go round, round and round
and round and round goes to the Merry go round. So
which NBA stars will be replacing Yannis in feeding the
(06:41):
clickbait machine. There's one thing about pro bouncy ball. The
regular season games are not very good, but the conversation,
the gossip, the speculation is on point in the NBA.
And so the last couple of months, Giannis's name had
been out there, Jannis to the Knicks or the Lakers
or the warrior of the Miami here team X. And
(07:04):
now that that is gone for the short term, let's
spin the wheel of speculation. Which NBA stars are now
going to be replacing Jannis in feeding the clickbait, And
round and round and round and round the wheel of
speculation goes. And so this is like an episode of
the Masked Singer. We are going to now unmask. There
(07:27):
are two names on the malor wheel of speculation that
will replace Gianni sidentakoombo to feed the clickbait, click any
click to feed the clickbait in the NBA world for
shams and Woje and those type of cats. And the
first name is Joel and Beid now in beads name
(07:47):
has already been out there. This will only enhance Joel
Embiid's name being tossed out. The other one caa Luka
doncik Right? Is Luca really happy in Dallas? Is he
looking around? Does he want to go somewhere else? Does
he trust Mark Cuban? Does Joel Embiid suddenly have an
(08:10):
appetite for something other than cheese steak and tasty cakes
and Philadelphia? And then you have Spider Spider Mitchell just
to stop over in Cleveland? Is he exiting to the
Big Apple? The rumor from years ago? And should this
man put down the fork in the bayou? Zion Williams
(08:31):
when he plays, he puts up twenty five points ten
rebounds a game. The problem is he just doesn't play
that much because he's fiddling around with strippers and whatever
and the all you can eat buffets. So if he
changes that around, then Zion becomes a prime name on
the trading block. Now the parting shot on this NBA
heavy monologue, the big opening Night Festivus of bouncy Ball
(08:55):
with two games on tap? What is your level? We
asked this question every year. It's like the swallows returning
to Capistrata. The same question gets asked every year. The
answer is always different. So the question is what is
your level of interest in the twenty twenty three twenty
twenty four NBA regular season as it begins just hours
(09:16):
from now. So on the Malord scale of interest, one
to ten, with ten being as excited as when you
were a little kid, whether it was Christmas or Honeko
or some holiday where you got gifts, that level of excitement.
So that is the measuring tool that we are using.
One to ten. I am at a three.
Speaker 2 (09:41):
I'm excited.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
Yeah, I'm only on a I'm only on a three.
I'm a triton. I am I'm a triton. And here's
why do I have interest in the storylines in the invasure?
Do I? I? Am I curious how Dame Liller is
gonna play with the Greek freaking Milwaukee. Yes, am I
wondering what's gonna happen in bas with Drew Holliday and
Chris Dops porzingis trying to mold together with Jason Tatum
(10:06):
and Jalen Brown. Sure, absolutely is there a bit of
curiosity if Bradley Beal can actually play well on a
decent team after playing well on a crap team in
Washington all these years. Yeah, of course, will Victor Wembanyama
be as advertised and not just a highlight guy on
social media? Will he actually be a player that leads
(10:29):
a team to the playoff. All of those are decent stories.
All of them have some level of interest in my head. However,
you and I both know and every man, woman and
child who pays attention to pro bouncy ball knows that
the NBA regular season products thinks it's terrible. It's been
(10:50):
this way for years. It's only gotten worse. The people
that run the NBA, Adam Silver and the other management
people have enabled this. They are now trying to to
reel it back in. They're trying to put the toothpaste
back in the tube. Good luck on that. They have
terrible QC in the NBA, as in quality control. The
(11:11):
QC in the NBA is atrocious. The star players do
not care about the regular season, the teams don't care
about the regular season, but the fans are expected to
compare compare notes about what's important in the regular season. Now,
the NBA says they are cracking down on this. We
snicker at that. We don't believe it, But the proof
(11:34):
will be in the performance and I will watch and
see if this happens. And of course what's going to
renevily happen If players do avoid load management, now they'll
get hurt. They always get hurt, and then people say
it's because the NBA got rid of load management. It's
that Adam Silver's fault. If we had load management, player
X would not get hurt because we know that's bull crap. Right,
(11:56):
there's no way to avoid certain things. You can't do
it unless you just stay in the fetal position sucking
your thumb in the corner of the locker room. But
even there, you got to get to the locker room,
so it's problematic, which means you have to take planes,
trains and automobiles to get there. Good luck it is
the band Maoschell. Congratulations to the champions of the American League,
(12:19):
the Texas Rangers, as they have won the pennant. The
Rangers are going to the World Series as they will
take on a team to be named later A Dallas
Garcia your a LCS MVP. It's a great day for
American sport. The biggest scumbags on the planet have been eliminated.
How wonderful, how sweet it is to say goodbye to
(12:41):
the a holes from Houston. That little punk will never
taste the Hall of Fame any meal at the Hall
of Fame, he won't be in by there. That little
loser jose Alkove. What a loser that Hey, check it
for the buzzer. Yeah, he's out. And the Fighting Phills
have screwed this thing up and they are playing with
They're playing with acid. They are playing with acid right
(13:04):
now as they take on the Diamondbacks in a game seven,
winner take all, Game seven. That is what I will
be watching. That'll be on my big TV, on the
small TV, will be the NBA Opening Night. We'll take
your calls if you want to be part of this.
The board is wide open, wide open right now, so
(13:27):
speak easy rules to apply, which means if you want
to call up, screams, shout, yell, all about, you can
do that. Just give us a buzz. We have operators
standing by. We'll take your phone calls. Later this hour.
We have Sight the Bite, the great sports radio mystery.
We also have from Saint to Center and starting Quarterback?
Is it true? Starting quarterback in the NFL gets a
(13:49):
vote of no confidence in Week seven. Week seven of
the NFL season, a starting quarterback has been given a
vote of no confidence. We'll get to that, and we
will do it next.
Speaker 3 (14:04):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Maller
Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific on
Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 4 (14:13):
There's a widespread problem of boring sports talk. The Ben
Mallor Show offers a solution. Under the cover of darkness.
We are twenty five percent more effective at delivering zany
hot takes than our competitors. We'd love for you to
help us grow the audience with a personal Endorsmith just
mentioned our show and tag along with us on Twitter, Instagram,
and Facebook. We are growing the Maller Militia, one new
member at a time. At outline from the Tirat dot
(14:35):
Com Fox Sports Radio Studios, It's Ben Maller.
Speaker 1 (14:39):
We'd like to congratulate the Las Vegas Raiders Josh McDaniels
offensive genius Josh McDaniels. We are told that the twenty
twenty three Raiders the first team in over a deck. Actually,
it's been about fifteen years since the team went their
first seven games without scoring any offensive points. In a
(15:02):
game they saw Now, the Raiders did have twenty one
points against the Patriots, but they were given two of
those points via a safety by mac Jones, so they
only offense did not generate those points. That was courtesy
of mac Jones. So congratulations to the Raiders. The great
moments in Raider football. Josh McDaniels, what a genius. If
(15:24):
I owned the Raiders, I would have fired him after
the game against the Bears. Nice, that would have been it.
But he continues on because Mark Davis does not want
to pay multiple coaches, and he's not sure how much
he's going to have to pay John Gruden if John
Gruden wins that lawsuit, So that becomes a problemo, a
problemo from Saint to Center. Big Day on the arrest
(15:48):
the police blotter in the NFL A multiple NFL players
arrested someone named Justin Ross of the Chiefs. I'm not
I'm not sure who it is, but he was arrested
for destroying twenty five thousand dollars of property criminal damage
charge for Justin Ross with a y What.
Speaker 4 (16:12):
Do he said? Something on fire? How do you destroy
that much property?
Speaker 1 (16:15):
Well, you know, you could take a baseball bat and
all that and do it the details. Twenty five thousand dollars, Yeah,
more than twenty five thousand dollars. Apparently he was booked
into jail without a bond set as of early mund
I assume he's got NOTT, but I have not seen
any other details on that. And then we had a
(16:36):
aggressive driving situation Chris Olive of the Saints. Right, he
got popped there driving thirty five miles an hour over
the speed limit, which is a reckless operation of a
motor vehicle. So there's two. And these things come in
(16:58):
threes like in Hollywood. And I saw the former coach
of Texas A and m mister Sumlin. Yeah he got
pig you got for a little DUI situation also, so
there's there's three rights. Although he's not a he's not
an NFL player, but too two NFL arrests. Yeah, I
(17:18):
was gonna say, Christal, Yes, Iowa Sam thirty five over
like in the in the uh spectrum of NFL or
just pro sports athletes, wide wide receivers, whatever it may be,
speeding and driving recklessly thirty five over seems we had
Jordan Addison in the what Yeah, Jordan Addison now Minnesota,
I got a speeding ticket in Minnesota. Cops in Minnesota
(17:38):
are ridiculous with the speeding tickets. A bad job by them.
Five you know when they should be seventy. But no,
it's ridiculous. The speed limit in Minneapolis is too slow. Yeah,
he was going one hundred and forty miles an hour.
If you're going to get a speeding ticket, go one forty.
Don't go just thirty five over. Now you should not speed, right,
I'm not recommending, but if you were going to speed.
Uh Now, sometimes have you ever had this happen when
(17:59):
you're you're you're your self speeding, you're maybe going you know,
I always go like seventy nine. That's like the fastest
I go because I don't get a tickea every night.
But you go seventy nine and then somebody passes you
like you're going about five miles an hour. Isn't that amazing?
That feeling when you're you feel like you're going pretty fast,
you're going around eighty miles an hour, and somebody zooms
(18:20):
past you like you're not even moving, like they're on
the autobahn. No, it's what it makes me angry. I mean,
it's just like where's the fire, dude? Just just slow
down your time and your safe. My time and my
safety it's just as important as yours, because one little mistake,
it's boom physics. The faster you go, the less control
you have of your vehicle. NASCAR drivers can tell you that,
(18:43):
Oh is that right? Yeah, you you were a NASCAR driver. No,
you came here, you were now I I've just been
told about a NASCAR drivers. Is the Iowa minute prepared
for later this week or we ready for the IO?
It will be, It will be, absolutely, it's getting there.
The good news is the Iowa teams don't score that much,
so you don't spend too much time worrying about.
Speaker 2 (19:02):
Getting got screwed. Oh my god.
Speaker 1 (19:05):
The rivalry game, though, I needed you yesterday with the
squaring off with Brady. I needed you really because he
was he was giving me a hard time because I
was upset about that.
Speaker 2 (19:16):
He was probably just pushing your buttons.
Speaker 1 (19:21):
I would hope that he didn't think that was the
right call, because it was the wrong call. But that's
officiating college for college, college and pro football officiating is
always a great go to an NFL game. A guy's
a half yard short of the first down. I saw
that too, and that was egregious. Yeah, no gamepid.
Speaker 2 (19:39):
I admit he did not get that first down.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
Invalid I'm not blind or validated. Yeah, but like what
other how do you how do you you're the referee, right,
everyone sees it. How do you market a first down
when he's clearly short of the first down mark? How
do you do?
Speaker 2 (20:00):
I mean he must I guess he didn't see the knee.
Speaker 1 (20:05):
That's his job. I don't work for the NFL. It
should be looked at immediately, like these guys should be
looking at it the second it's over. Anyway, football officiating
is the most filled with the most ambiguity.
Speaker 2 (20:17):
I mean that, I mean that does happen?
Speaker 4 (20:20):
What have you ever seen a punt returner like waving
off the guys and then they call that a.
Speaker 2 (20:30):
Nonsense? That is nonsense.
Speaker 1 (20:32):
Let's go to the phone. Let's say alor to Jed
who fled. He's somewhere in Florida running from the authorities
as we speak right now. Hello, Jed who fled?
Speaker 5 (20:42):
Have you ever have you ever thought about having a
bonus segmentin like baby's pickle versus the nickel, and like
having a personified version of your of your paintings.
Speaker 1 (20:52):
Well, wow, I didn't think of that. I don't know.
I know you're fascinated, you're fascinated by that, but uh yeah,
I don't know.
Speaker 5 (21:06):
Any day rim shot so doesn't talking about do it's
shire this guy talk radio? I just our kids are
I'm thinking. I'm thinking, you know, maybe positively. Uh. It's
just like biblical biblical scholars ben have have been. They
don't know what tactly what race Adam was that the genisis?
Do they know he wasn't black? And the reason was
(21:27):
no black man has ever given away a real I said,
I'm aster. Wow, that's good. Hey, listen, what what j
Why are.
Speaker 1 (21:37):
You calling us? You should be doing stand up comedy
and chuckles comedy club? Why are you wasting this material
on our show? That's wrong with you?
Speaker 6 (21:46):
Home Coming?
Speaker 5 (21:47):
Wait and fam you I was there. It's just semester
that Barack Obama was running for president got elected a
little more intestid usual. They're Homecoming week, got crap, you know,
man chicken watermelon and all.
Speaker 1 (22:00):
Right, he's on a bender here. I like, I was looked.
I only heard parts of that, but it sounded did
I can't I can't. It was racist, racist, but it
was like mumble, mumble, chicken and watermelon, Barack Obama mumble,
I just repeat it. You want to yell. How about
(22:22):
we all pause and you repeat it. What are you
stupid myself? Well, you did, you said.
Speaker 7 (22:34):
But I didn't put any He said, some of you.
It's clearly not what I did.
Speaker 1 (22:46):
Just to clarify what he said, let me repeat it.
The thing you can't say, Let me repeat it. He
didn't say anything you can't say. He just said loaded.
There depends, you know, it depends if you want to
get that phone call. I was saying. I try to
avoid the phone call at all costs. Eddie, do you
want that phone call when you wake up? I don't
want that phone call. Coop, do you want that phone
call when you wake up? I don't want that? You're good, right?
(23:08):
So how about this, We'll make a deal. Anybody in
management upset? Contact Iowa Sam, No, Paul, Iowa Sam. Because
he obviously knows what was said. He repeated it. I
didn't hear what was said. He was repeated the key
part some food, and I heard our former president. That's
what I said, you guys, yeah, yeah, it's our fault.
(23:28):
We're the bad guys. We're the bad guys. It's like
a child, like their parents say the F word and
then the kid repeats it. Right, What are you doing?
I was just trying to make sense of what he said.
There's no seat. Never makes any sense. Why don't even
put him on the air? He never makes sense. This
all starts to I don't scream the he gets screened.
I put him on the air. He's on whole I
(23:50):
put him on the air. He's on hold for the
whole show.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
He is entertaining those times at times, yeah.
Speaker 1 (23:55):
Yeah, like eight percent of the time. No, he's a
great So is Anthrax. But you know I don't want it. No, no, no,
it didn't work. No anthrax, no anthrax anyway it Avoid
the white powder, avoid the pop. I can tell you that.
Avoid the powder at all. Well, it might end up
like him if you don't avoid the powder. Avoid the powder,
Avoid that powder.

Speaker 2 (24:35):

On the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get

Speaker 2 (24:50):
You're gonna say something, Ben.
Speaker 1 (24:51):
So Wow, I was just gonna measure it. The pitching
matchup tonight, Eddie, I don't think you said that. Rangers
Ranger swar left hander, he's for the pills and Brandon
fought fat. I did a show with Dutch, did a
show with Vic the Brick who called him fat. But
it's fought actually, but I don't think it was BacT
to me. Yeah. But the the gambling market, Eddie, the
(25:11):
Phillies a minus one seventy favorite and all of the
sharp money is on the fight and Phills to win
Game seven, so we'll see if it holds up. There
was a lot of money on the Astros in Game
seven and that didn't turn out so well, so was
it sharp? Was it sharp money? Ve that's the professional Yeah,
(25:33):
when did Vegas think about the as Yeah? Well, the
early money. I don't know what happened. A lot of
people probably bet right before the game. But the night
before it was on Christian Xavier who went one thirty.
He had a Kershaw start Christian Xavier, although he was
actually better than Kershaw because he didn't give up as
many runs.
Speaker 4 (25:49):
But yeah, first ever game seven in the Philadelphia.
Speaker 1 (25:53):
Love that fun fact. Fact, Such a fun fact.
Speaker 2 (25:56):
So some tight took uses.
Speaker 4 (25:57):
I would guess in Philadelphia coming up to one, they
are the favorites.
Speaker 2 (26:00):
They fall early.
Speaker 1 (26:01):
You can see how embarrassing would that they're sucked out
of the citizens. Now, that would be more embarrassing than
the Dodgers losing to the Diamondbacks. Because the Dodgers lost
a five game series. This is a seven game series.
You had to lose four times to the Diamondbacks. That's
more embarrassing. I use malor math. That's true.
Speaker 2 (26:20):
It's fishy math.
Speaker 1 (26:20):
It's not fishy mash. It's malor math, fishing math. Turn
your mic off, start your vacation right now. It is

Pizza belongs for rats anyway.
Speaker 1 (27:15):
Delicious, not that greaty. I agree with you, Joe. Have
you been to Joe's Pizza in New York. That's pretty good.
Tried Joe's pizzas, but I don't like the Brooklyn pizza
you like. You like the thick Chicago style, I do.
I love Chicago Chicago, and I never ate it for
years because I didn't Why did they put the tomato
sauce on top? It's so stupid, But then it's amazing. Yeah,

I was like, what the what is that?
Speaker 1 (28:09):
Expanding his like a like a chicken carcass at first, Well,
that was from Marcelo in the morning, as you know,
Breakfast Champions. All right, it is the Ben Mouch Show.
Let's go to actually let me pay that star up.
So in New York, I did mention New York Brian Dable,
causing outrage in the Big Apple because he did not
commit to Daniel Jones as the starting quarterback. Giants snapped
(28:33):
the skid beat the Commanders in a low scoring game.
Tyrod Taylor was playing quarterback and there's some chatter about
Daniel Jones coming back, and Taylor actually played pretty well,
and Brian Dabeles asked whether or not there is an
argument for Taylor to remain the starter even when Jones
becomes healthy. Dables answer was, I'll just try. I'll just
(28:55):
say Tyrod had a good game, this game, he's a
true pro. I'm glad, glad we got him. Was the quote,
but it's open to interpretation. But here's the Tyrod Taylor
should be playing quarterback and not the other guy. Danny
dies because Danny Dimes sucks. And all these people that
fat team the offensive line, they blame the offensive line forever.
(29:17):
There's always the offensive line's fault for this, that and
the other thing. Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
blah blah blah blah blah blah. Tyrod Taylor was sacked
four times. That's a reasonable amount of sacks. If if
Daniel Jones had been playing against the Commanders, he would
have been sacked fifteen times against the Washington defense. Let's
go to the phones and we'll say a lord to
(29:38):
cowboy John Braddon Winsor, Ontario Cowboys quarter Hello cowboy.
Speaker 6 (29:45):
Ben. Oh, by the way, you can sure tell that
no one thing, at least he's not anyway. On fourth,
nineteen seventy two, Jackie Robinson fifty fi two died of
a heart attack and is one hundred and one year
old widow. Professor Emeritus Rachel Eisen Robinson is the one
(30:08):
person I would both like to meet, and he spoke
about Brady Quinn. Somebody did a little earlier. Well, he'll
be forty nine on Friday. He was born fifty years
and one day after my late maternal uncle Ronald Turner,
who passed away August twenty fifth, twenty twenty one. Uncle
Ronald had one with came here, but he actually died
(30:30):
of very pneumonia. And a year before Jackie Robinson died.
On October twenty fourth, nineteen seventy one, the Lion's wide receiver,
Chuck Cues was twenty eight, lapsed on on the field,
was taken off the field and died a couple of
hours later at Detroit henry Ford Hospital. He had a
(30:52):
heart condition, has a heart of about an eighty year old.
Speaker 1 (30:55):
He got a left little bit.
Speaker 6 (30:57):
They were dying on the field NFL game. A century
before that October twenty fourth, eighteen seventy one, in a
spasm of sinophobia in San Francisco, eighteen Chinese men and
boys were lynched by a mob. And this place called
Negro Alley in San Francisco. I'm sure Jedi fled. The
(31:19):
web has seen that, and Shuri Robertson fifty one, who
was Calvin Griffith's younger brother. I think he also worked
for him mesday and as a front office man for
the Sight of a Car, Cry and Okay awful. If
you ever watched The Honeymooners a rerun to that, Joyce
(31:41):
Randolph was ninety nine Saturday, a full surviving member of
the Honeymooner. She played Ed Norton's wife, Selma Trixie Norton.
I'll speak to people fromorrow morning. And you got to
be a boy to be a cowboy.
Speaker 1 (32:00):
So I spoke to Cowboy briefly off the air. He
told me that he went to a chili cookout in
Windsor and the chili did not agree with him. So
he's been dealing with some chili issues. And yeah, I
don't go to chili cookouts for that very reason. I
don't want to have the after effects. That's the actual
sound of Cowboy as he was trying to recover from
(32:22):
the chili. Yeah, I signed Doma con Sioue is supposedly
going to get a meet and greet with the Ravens.
He's talked to the Ravens about joining Baltimore's defensive front there.
I'll have to warn my guy's Sports with Coleman not
to report that Indama Kan Sue is about to sign
with the Ravens, or he might block him like he
(32:45):
did me when he was about to sign with the Rams.
Who's Sports with Coleman? Baltimore media mogul, Jerry Coleman. He's
a friend of mine, radio buddy of mine. He's a
Baltimore Media Coleman and not the old Padre announcer he's dead.
This is Jerry the right an act Toode. But your

If it was, that would be shocking. Cowboy. Avoid the chili, Cowboy,
Thank you? Go all right, there you go. Let's see
your first clue. This born was born to a librarian
mother in Atlanta. Well that that's a good clue. That's
a great clue. Yes, Uncle Mo, caller three, Uncle Mo,

let's go rangers.
Speaker 9 (35:50):
Good morning, Ben.

Is that Tiki Barber? No, but thanks was a legitimate answer.
We're shocked by that. We're not used to that. But
thank you, and we'll hang up on you. This is
the next clue. Second player in NFL history to score
six rushing touchdowns in a single game. Second player score,
that's a lot. Let's go to Steve in Kansas City
for the Wayne Steve color five.
Speaker 5 (36:39):
Is it?
Speaker 1 (36:45):
No, it was Alvin Kamara. Alvin Kamara was the answer.
Beat job by you sneez I, dare you guy ruined
the bank? That's a good bet. The guy ruined the bed.
Second he ruined the ben
Hello and welcome. It's our numberfall in a big day
on the calendar. If you're a fan of hoops. As
the pro basketball season begins in America, how do you
classify the Yannis Adenta Coombo contract extension with the Bucks
just before opening night? How will that play out in Milwaukee?
(00:23):
And now with the Greek freak signed up, which NBA
stars will be replacing Giannis in feeding the internet clickbait
on changing teams next? And what is your level of
interest in the curtain going up on the NBA regular season.
We'll talk about all that and more right now here.
It is our number four. Have a wonderful Tuesday. The
(00:47):
buck stops here, No, literally, the buck stops Welcome. In
the beginning of another hour of the Ben Malors Show.
We are in the are everywhere partners in crime. As
we know, our message reverberates to the corridors of darkness coast,

This hour coming from pro Bouncy Ball. As the flag
is up on the twenty twenty three to twenty twenty
(01:52):
four NBA season. We'll get to the baseball and the
football coming up in a minute. But between tonight the
beginning of the NBA regular season and eight fourteenth, mark
that on your calendars. That is when the regular season
will have its final games played. So there will be
eighty two regular season games played in one hundred and
seventy three nights. That means that each team will have
(02:15):
ninety one nights off. Nobody plays double headers, so you
have ninety one days off over the course of the season.
Of course, we know that's not enough. Our favorite Hoop
Gladiators still need load management. Cannot expect them to play
eighty two games in one hundred and seventy three days.
It's just too much. So the big story, though, before
(02:38):
we get into that. The big story is from the
Cream City and a nice creamsicle for the hometown team
there in Milwaukee. If you haven't heard yet, maybe not.
On the eve of the NBA regular season beginning, we
have learned the Milwaukee Bucks are gonna continue to get freaky,
as in the Greek freak. Giannis at Denta Koombo has
(03:02):
agreed to a three year contract extension for one hundred
and eighty six million dollars. He would have gotten more,
but he chose to sign the extension. Now, so let
us discuss the question, the question on this one, how
do you classify Giannis Identa Cuombo's contract with the Bucks.
So I've got Bubblegum, the masked singer and QC. Are
(03:27):
you down with me? And we'll get to all that
and we will throw it all against the wall and
we'll see what sticks. And that's what we're gonna go with.
So to tip off, as they say in basketball, the
tip off the festivities. Yannis is a renaissance man. He's
a man of the world. Yannis Denta Cooombo. He talked
(03:47):
to talk and there were multiple stories in I think
it was GQ magazine, a couple other publications where was
Rolling Stone, I believe I forget they were not usual
sports publications. But Yannis dent to Coombo. It doesn't really matter.
He made comments that implied he had a wandering eye
(04:08):
and he was considering what's off in the wild blue
yonder away from Milwaukee, and he essentially issued the Bucks
an ultimatum, you either do what I want or else,
and then, surprise, surprise, surprise, he not only talked to talk,
(04:28):
Giannis walked the walk A dent to Coombo has long
maintained very publicly here this is the last couple of
months that he wanted to be in a situation where
he can contend annually for an NBA title. And consider
this particular act not a statement, not a statement. We're
talking about an action. Actions are more important than statements,
(04:50):
and so his action indicates that he is content that
he believes that the cheese Kurds in Milwaukee are going
to be better than the nice pasta in Miami. All right,
considering that he signed the extension, this is what's known
as a bubble gum situation, or go double mint gum,
(05:13):
double your pleasure, double your fund, because as the Milwaukee
Bucks pay the man the money when they made the
decision to acquire Dame Lillard and the Blazers signed off
on it. That was the ace in the whole. We
all know that right. That was as in the will,
convinced the Greek freak that the franchise is in it
(05:34):
to win it, and it's a discount deal for Milwaukee.
I'd like to give the company here, I work for
a discount deal. They pay me one hundred day three million.
I will not ask for one hundred eighty four one
hundred eighty five million. So Yannis would have been able
to get even more money on the next contract if
he had waited another year, but he decided that he
(05:55):
didn't want to do that, and the old bird in
a hand situation. So he got that and he's good
to go. Now, furthermore, the headline and now from the
transfer portal with Giannis adentakoombo, you can cross his name
out with the markers. So Yiannis is off the board.
He's staying in Milwaukee, and he stays there for a
(06:19):
couple of more seasons, three years to be exact, which
lines up with the Dame Lillard contract. Lillard's Contract's got
three more years and then he's gone. So which NBA stars,
I'm gonna play the merry go round, round and round
and round and round goes to the Merry go round. So
which NBA stars will be replacing Yannis in feeding the
(06:41):
clickbait machine. There's one thing about pro bouncy ball. The
regular season games are not very good, but the conversation,
the gossip, the speculation is on point in the NBA.
And so the last couple of months, Giannis's name had
been out there, Jannis to the Knicks or the Lakers
or the warrior of the Miami here team X. And
(07:04):
now that that is gone for the short term, let's
spin the wheel of speculation. Which NBA stars are now
going to be replacing Jannis in feeding the clickbait, And
round and round and round and round the wheel of
speculation goes. And so this is like an episode of
the Masked Singer. We are going to now unmask. There
(07:27):
are two names on the malor wheel of speculation that
will replace Gianni sidentakoombo to feed the clickbait, click any
click to feed the clickbait in the NBA world for
shams and Woje and those type of cats. And the
first name is Joel and Beid now in beads name
(07:47):
has already been out there. This will only enhance Joel
Embiid's name being tossed out. The other one caa Luka
doncik Right? Is Luca really happy in Dallas? Is he
looking around? Does he want to go somewhere else? Does
he trust Mark Cuban? Does Joel Embiid suddenly have an
(08:10):
appetite for something other than cheese steak and tasty cakes
and Philadelphia? And then you have Spider Spider Mitchell just
to stop over in Cleveland? Is he exiting to the
Big Apple? The rumor from years ago? And should this
man put down the fork in the bayou? Zion Williams
(08:31):
when he plays, he puts up twenty five points ten
rebounds a game. The problem is he just doesn't play
that much because he's fiddling around with strippers and whatever
and the all you can eat buffets. So if he
changes that around, then Zion becomes a prime name on
the trading block. Now the parting shot on this NBA
heavy monologue, the big opening Night Festivus of bouncy Ball
(08:55):
with two games on tap? What is your level? We
asked this question every year. It's like the swallows returning
to Capistrata. The same question gets asked every year. The
answer is always different. So the question is what is
your level of interest in the twenty twenty three twenty
twenty four NBA regular season as it begins just hours
(09:16):
from now. So on the Malord scale of interest, one
to ten, with ten being as excited as when you
were a little kid, whether it was Christmas or Honeko
or some holiday where you got gifts, that level of excitement.
So that is the measuring tool that we are using.
One to ten. I am at a three.
Speaker 2 (09:41):
I'm excited.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
Yeah, I'm only on a I'm only on a three.
I'm a triton. I am I'm a triton. And here's
why do I have interest in the storylines in the invasure?
Do I? I? Am I curious how Dame Liller is
gonna play with the Greek freaking Milwaukee. Yes, am I
wondering what's gonna happen in bas with Drew Holliday and
Chris Dops porzingis trying to mold together with Jason Tatum
(10:06):
and Jalen Brown. Sure, absolutely is there a bit of
curiosity if Bradley Beal can actually play well on a
decent team after playing well on a crap team in
Washington all these years. Yeah, of course, will Victor Wembanyama
be as advertised and not just a highlight guy on
social media? Will he actually be a player that leads
(10:29):
a team to the playoff. All of those are decent stories.
All of them have some level of interest in my head. However,
you and I both know and every man, woman and
child who pays attention to pro bouncy ball knows that
the NBA regular season products thinks it's terrible. It's been
(10:50):
this way for years. It's only gotten worse. The people
that run the NBA, Adam Silver and the other management
people have enabled this. They are now trying to to
reel it back in. They're trying to put the toothpaste
back in the tube. Good luck on that. They have
terrible QC in the NBA, as in quality control. The
(11:11):
QC in the NBA is atrocious. The star players do
not care about the regular season, the teams don't care
about the regular season, but the fans are expected to
compare compare notes about what's important in the regular season. Now,
the NBA says they are cracking down on this. We
snicker at that. We don't believe it, But the proof
(11:34):
will be in the performance and I will watch and
see if this happens. And of course what's going to
renevily happen If players do avoid load management, now they'll
get hurt. They always get hurt, and then people say
it's because the NBA got rid of load management. It's
that Adam Silver's fault. If we had load management, player
X would not get hurt because we know that's bull crap. Right,
(11:56):
there's no way to avoid certain things. You can't do
it unless you just stay in the fetal position sucking
your thumb in the corner of the locker room. But
even there, you got to get to the locker room,
so it's problematic, which means you have to take planes,
trains and automobiles to get there. Good luck it is
the band Maoschell. Congratulations to the champions of the American League,
(12:19):
the Texas Rangers, as they have won the pennant. The
Rangers are going to the World Series as they will
take on a team to be named later A Dallas
Garcia your a LCS MVP. It's a great day for
American sport. The biggest scumbags on the planet have been eliminated.
How wonderful, how sweet it is to say goodbye to
(12:41):
the a holes from Houston. That little punk will never
taste the Hall of Fame any meal at the Hall
of Fame, he won't be in by there. That little
loser jose Alkove. What a loser that Hey, check it
for the buzzer. Yeah, he's out. And the Fighting Phills
have screwed this thing up and they are playing with
They're playing with acid. They are playing with acid right
(13:04):
now as they take on the Diamondbacks in a game seven,
winner take all, Game seven. That is what I will
be watching. That'll be on my big TV, on the
small TV, will be the NBA Opening Night. We'll take
your calls if you want to be part of this.
The board is wide open, wide open right now, so
(13:27):
speak easy rules to apply, which means if you want
to call up, screams, shout, yell, all about, you can
do that. Just give us a buzz. We have operators
standing by. We'll take your phone calls. Later this hour.
We have Sight the Bite, the great sports radio mystery.
We also have from Saint to Center and starting Quarterback?
Is it true? Starting quarterback in the NFL gets a
(13:49):
vote of no confidence in Week seven. Week seven of
the NFL season, a starting quarterback has been given a
vote of no confidence. We'll get to that, and we
will do it next.
Speaker 3 (14:04):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Maller
Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific on
Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 4 (14:13):
There's a widespread problem of boring sports talk. The Ben
Mallor Show offers a solution. Under the cover of darkness.
We are twenty five percent more effective at delivering zany
hot takes than our competitors. We'd love for you to
help us grow the audience with a personal Endorsmith just
mentioned our show and tag along with us on Twitter, Instagram,
and Facebook. We are growing the Maller Militia, one new
member at a time. At outline from the Tirat dot
(14:35):
Com Fox Sports Radio Studios, It's Ben Maller.
Speaker 1 (14:39):
We'd like to congratulate the Las Vegas Raiders Josh McDaniels
offensive genius Josh McDaniels. We are told that the twenty
twenty three Raiders the first team in over a deck. Actually,
it's been about fifteen years since the team went their
first seven games without scoring any offensive points. In a
(15:02):
game they saw Now, the Raiders did have twenty one
points against the Patriots, but they were given two of
those points via a safety by mac Jones, so they
only offense did not generate those points. That was courtesy
of mac Jones. So congratulations to the Raiders. The great
moments in Raider football. Josh McDaniels, what a genius. If
(15:24):
I owned the Raiders, I would have fired him after
the game against the Bears. Nice, that would have been it.
But he continues on because Mark Davis does not want
to pay multiple coaches, and he's not sure how much
he's going to have to pay John Gruden if John
Gruden wins that lawsuit, So that becomes a problemo, a
problemo from Saint to Center. Big Day on the arrest
(15:48):
the police blotter in the NFL A multiple NFL players
arrested someone named Justin Ross of the Chiefs. I'm not
I'm not sure who it is, but he was arrested
for destroying twenty five thousand dollars of property criminal damage
charge for Justin Ross with a y What.
Speaker 4 (16:12):
Do he said? Something on fire? How do you destroy
that much property?
Speaker 1 (16:15):
Well, you know, you could take a baseball bat and
all that and do it the details. Twenty five thousand dollars, Yeah,
more than twenty five thousand dollars. Apparently he was booked
into jail without a bond set as of early mund
I assume he's got NOTT, but I have not seen
any other details on that. And then we had a
(16:36):
aggressive driving situation Chris Olive of the Saints. Right, he
got popped there driving thirty five miles an hour over
the speed limit, which is a reckless operation of a
motor vehicle. So there's two. And these things come in
(16:58):
threes like in Hollywood. And I saw the former coach
of Texas A and m mister Sumlin. Yeah he got
pig you got for a little DUI situation also, so
there's there's three rights. Although he's not a he's not
an NFL player, but too two NFL arrests. Yeah, I
(17:18):
was gonna say, Christal, Yes, Iowa Sam thirty five over
like in the in the uh spectrum of NFL or
just pro sports athletes, wide wide receivers, whatever it may be,
speeding and driving recklessly thirty five over seems we had
Jordan Addison in the what Yeah, Jordan Addison now Minnesota,
I got a speeding ticket in Minnesota. Cops in Minnesota
(17:38):
are ridiculous with the speeding tickets. A bad job by them.
Five you know when they should be seventy. But no,
it's ridiculous. The speed limit in Minneapolis is too slow. Yeah,
he was going one hundred and forty miles an hour.
If you're going to get a speeding ticket, go one forty.
Don't go just thirty five over. Now you should not speed, right,
I'm not recommending, but if you were going to speed.
Uh Now, sometimes have you ever had this happen when
(17:59):
you're you're you're your self speeding, you're maybe going you know,
I always go like seventy nine. That's like the fastest
I go because I don't get a tickea every night.
But you go seventy nine and then somebody passes you
like you're going about five miles an hour. Isn't that amazing?
That feeling when you're you feel like you're going pretty fast,
you're going around eighty miles an hour, and somebody zooms
(18:20):
past you like you're not even moving, like they're on
the autobahn. No, it's what it makes me angry. I mean,
it's just like where's the fire, dude? Just just slow
down your time and your safe. My time and my
safety it's just as important as yours, because one little mistake,
it's boom physics. The faster you go, the less control
you have of your vehicle. NASCAR drivers can tell you that,
(18:43):
Oh is that right? Yeah, you you were a NASCAR driver. No,
you came here, you were now I I've just been
told about a NASCAR drivers. Is the Iowa minute prepared
for later this week or we ready for the IO?
It will be, It will be, absolutely, it's getting there.
The good news is the Iowa teams don't score that much,
so you don't spend too much time worrying about.
Speaker 2 (19:02):
Getting got screwed. Oh my god.
Speaker 1 (19:05):
The rivalry game, though, I needed you yesterday with the
squaring off with Brady. I needed you really because he
was he was giving me a hard time because I
was upset about that.
Speaker 2 (19:16):
He was probably just pushing your buttons.
Speaker 1 (19:21):
I would hope that he didn't think that was the
right call, because it was the wrong call. But that's
officiating college for college, college and pro football officiating is
always a great go to an NFL game. A guy's
a half yard short of the first down. I saw
that too, and that was egregious. Yeah, no gamepid.
Speaker 2 (19:39):
I admit he did not get that first down.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
Invalid I'm not blind or validated. Yeah, but like what
other how do you how do you you're the referee, right,
everyone sees it. How do you market a first down
when he's clearly short of the first down mark? How
do you do?
Speaker 2 (20:00):
I mean he must I guess he didn't see the knee.
Speaker 1 (20:05):
That's his job. I don't work for the NFL. It
should be looked at immediately, like these guys should be
looking at it the second it's over. Anyway, football officiating
is the most filled with the most ambiguity.
Speaker 2 (20:17):
I mean that, I mean that does happen?
Speaker 4 (20:20):
What have you ever seen a punt returner like waving
off the guys and then they call that a.
Speaker 2 (20:30):
Nonsense? That is nonsense.
Speaker 1 (20:32):
Let's go to the phone. Let's say alor to Jed
who fled. He's somewhere in Florida running from the authorities
as we speak right now. Hello, Jed who fled?

Speaker 2 (24:50):
You're gonna say something, Ben.
Speaker 1 (24:51):
So Wow, I was just gonna measure it. The pitching
matchup tonight, Eddie, I don't think you said that. Rangers
Ranger swar left hander, he's for the pills and Brandon
fought fat. I did a show with Dutch, did a
show with Vic the Brick who called him fat. But
it's fought actually, but I don't think it was BacT
to me. Yeah. But the the gambling market, Eddie, the
(25:11):
Phillies a minus one seventy favorite and all of the
sharp money is on the fight and Phills to win
Game seven, so we'll see if it holds up. There
was a lot of money on the Astros in Game
seven and that didn't turn out so well, so was
it sharp? Was it sharp money? Ve that's the professional Yeah,
(25:33):
when did Vegas think about the as Yeah? Well, the
early money. I don't know what happened. A lot of
people probably bet right before the game. But the night
before it was on Christian Xavier who went one thirty.
He had a Kershaw start Christian Xavier, although he was
actually better than Kershaw because he didn't give up as
many runs.
Speaker 4 (25:49):
But yeah, first ever game seven in the Philadelphia.
Speaker 1 (25:53):
Love that fun fact. Fact, Such a fun fact.
Speaker 2 (25:56):
So some tight took uses.
Speaker 4 (25:57):
I would guess in Philadelphia coming up to one, they
are the favorites.
Speaker 2 (26:00):
They fall early.
Speaker 1 (26:01):
You can see how embarrassing would that they're sucked out
of the citizens. Now, that would be more embarrassing than
the Dodgers losing to the Diamondbacks. Because the Dodgers lost
a five game series. This is a seven game series.
You had to lose four times to the Diamondbacks. That's
more embarrassing. I use malor math. That's true.
Speaker 2 (26:20):
It's fishy math.
Speaker 1 (26:20):
It's not fishy mash. It's malor math, fishing math. Turn

Oh, congratulations, got pizza. Probably you don't have to actually
just drop the pizza down. The rats will come screwing.
Speaker 2 (27:12):
Pizza belongs for rats anyway.
Speaker 1 (27:15):
Delicious, not that greaty. I agree with you, Joe. Have
you been to Joe's Pizza in New York. That's pretty good.
Tried Joe's pizzas, but I don't like the Brooklyn pizza
you like. You like the thick Chicago style, I do.
I love Chicago Chicago, and I never ate it for
years because I didn't Why did they put the tomato
sauce on top? It's so stupid, But then it's amazing. Yeah,
(27:38):
it's a pie. It's like a lasagna. All styles of pizza,
yeah are great.
Speaker 2 (27:45):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (27:45):
You want that, you want that celestizza with marcell You
got shot out on that.
Speaker 2 (27:49):
Oh god, I saw the pictures Marcella.
Speaker 1 (27:53):
LORDI how is Marcello thirty years old? And my guys,
he saw the breakfast picture.
Speaker 2 (28:01):
Where's That's what I'm talking about? The cereal breakfast sandwich.
I was like, what the what is that?
Speaker 1 (28:09):
Expanding his like a like a chicken carcass at first, Well,
that was from Marcelo in the morning, as you know,
Breakfast Champions. All right, it is the Ben Mouch Show.
Let's go to actually let me pay that star up.
So in New York, I did mention New York Brian Dable,
causing outrage in the Big Apple because he did not
commit to Daniel Jones as the starting quarterback. Giants snapped
(28:33):
the skid beat the Commanders in a low scoring game.
Tyrod Taylor was playing quarterback and there's some chatter about
Daniel Jones coming back, and Taylor actually played pretty well,
and Brian Dabeles asked whether or not there is an
argument for Taylor to remain the starter even when Jones
becomes healthy. Dables answer was, I'll just try. I'll just
(28:55):
say Tyrod had a good game, this game, he's a
true pro. I'm glad, glad we got him. Was the quote,
but it's open to interpretation. But here's the Tyrod Taylor
should be playing quarterback and not the other guy. Danny
dies because Danny Dimes sucks. And all these people that
fat team the offensive line, they blame the offensive line forever.
(29:17):
There's always the offensive line's fault for this, that and
the other thing. Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
blah blah blah blah blah blah. Tyrod Taylor was sacked
four times. That's a reasonable amount of sacks. If if
Daniel Jones had been playing against the Commanders, he would
have been sacked fifteen times against the Washington defense. Let's
go to the phones and we'll say a lord to
(29:38):
cowboy John Braddon Winsor, Ontario Cowboys quarter Hello cowboy.
Speaker 6 (29:45):
Ben. Oh, by the way, you can sure tell that
no one thing, at least he's not anyway. On fourth,
nineteen seventy two, Jackie Robinson fifty fi two died of
a heart attack and is one hundred and one year
old widow. Professor Emeritus Rachel Eisen Robinson is the one
(30:08):
person I would both like to meet, and he spoke
about Brady Quinn. Somebody did a little earlier. Well, he'll
be forty nine on Friday. He was born fifty years
and one day after my late maternal uncle Ronald Turner,
who passed away August twenty fifth, twenty twenty one. Uncle
Ronald had one with came here, but he actually died
(30:30):
of very pneumonia. And a year before Jackie Robinson died.
On October twenty fourth, nineteen seventy one, the Lion's wide receiver,
Chuck Cues was twenty eight, lapsed on on the field,
was taken off the field and died a couple of
hours later at Detroit henry Ford Hospital. He had a
(30:52):
heart condition, has a heart of about an eighty year old.
Speaker 1 (30:55):
He got a left little bit.
Speaker 6 (30:57):
They were dying on the field NFL game. A century
before that October twenty fourth, eighteen seventy one, in a
spasm of sinophobia in San Francisco, eighteen Chinese men and
boys were lynched by a mob. And this place called
Negro Alley in San Francisco. I'm sure Jedi fled. The
(31:19):
web has seen that, and Shuri Robertson fifty one, who
was Calvin Griffith's younger brother. I think he also worked
for him mesday and as a front office man for
the Sight of a Car, Cry and Okay awful. If
you ever watched The Honeymooners a rerun to that, Joyce
(31:41):
Randolph was ninety nine Saturday, a full surviving member of
the Honeymooner. She played Ed Norton's wife, Selma Trixie Norton.
I'll speak to people fromorrow morning. And you got to
be a boy to be a cowboy.
Speaker 1 (32:00):
So I spoke to Cowboy briefly off the air. He
told me that he went to a chili cookout in
Windsor and the chili did not agree with him. So
he's been dealing with some chili issues. And yeah, I
don't go to chili cookouts for that very reason. I
don't want to have the after effects. That's the actual
sound of Cowboy as he was trying to recover from
(32:22):
the chili. Yeah, I signed Doma con Sioue is supposedly
going to get a meet and greet with the Ravens.
He's talked to the Ravens about joining Baltimore's defensive front there.
I'll have to warn my guy's Sports with Coleman not
to report that Indama Kan Sue is about to sign
with the Ravens, or he might block him like he
(32:45):
did me when he was about to sign with the Rams.
Who's Sports with Coleman? Baltimore media mogul, Jerry Coleman. He's
a friend of mine, radio buddy of mine. He's a
Baltimore Media Coleman and not the old Padre announcer he's dead.
