Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello and welcome. It's our name or four hour four
the show. We'll talk from NFL football. John Morrow, the
Giants owner, with an amusing comment about Brian dabele bono
or bono or bozo? I should say, is there a
hidden message here for Brian Dable. We'll talk about that.
How did you digest the words of praise from ownership

(00:21):
for Danny Dimes? And we'll turn the page. Is Meek
Mill meddling? Is he tampering with NFL transactions? We'll talk
about that and more right now here it is. Have
a great weekend. It's our number four some giant advice. Welcome.
In the beginning of another hour of the Ben Maller Show.

(00:45):
We are in the air everywhere. Teammates as we are
climbing the ladder, coast to coast, border, the border and
beyond on the mast and devilishly powerful microphones of fs
are emanating live from the elephant and how do you
eat an elephant? One byte at a time. Everyone knows

(01:08):
that we are broadcasting live from the ti iraq dot
com studios ti iraq dot com. We'll help you get
there and unmatched selection, fast free shipping, free road hazard
protection and over ten thousand recommended installers ti iraq dot
com the way tire buying should be. So I lead

(01:28):
this hour coming from football. We'll go back to the
baseball and the viral moment from Major League Baseball and
we will discuss that. But we will begin the festivals
year with little football talk. The story that caught my
attention and it comes out of the NFL owners shindig.
The Giants owner John Mara, who's technically the co owner

(01:53):
because there's other people involved, but he's the face of
the ownership group. So John Mara does not does not
want his head coach, Brian Dable to get all fat
and happy. He's already fat. He don't want to be happy.
Now if he didn't hear this, and maybe it skipped
past your sonar this week. So the Giants owner recently

(02:13):
popped up on state sponsored NFL radio on Sirius XM,
where you can also find the Ben Maller Show and
Fox Sports Radio and all that. So John Mara issued
a message to the NFL's Coach of the year. Coach
of the Year, and what was that message? As Warner

(02:35):
Wolf would say, let's go to the audio tape right now,
he's Bono walking around on New York City. But I've
told him, I said, in this business, it doesn't take
long ago from Bono to Bozo. Don't get your head
too big there, you go from Bono to Boza. That's
a good line. I like that line, all right. So

(02:56):
let's discuss the question. Is there a hidden message from
the Giants owner for Brian Dable? And I am nodding
my head, Yes, I am nodding my head. Yes. I've
got comic strip, Kittykat, ice Hot or Icy Hot, and
digital paper trail. And we'll put all these things together

(03:17):
and we'll throw them into a pot and we'll let
the pot simmer for about ten minutes and we'll see
what comes out of the pot. What's in the pot?
All right? So to kick off here, I get that
this was like lighthearted and the Giants owner was having
a good time and all that. But John mar is
in the bottom percentile of being interesting. He does not

(03:41):
stir the pot. He does not stir the pot. We're
putting all that stuff in the pot. He does not
stir the pot. He is exciting, He's about as exciting
as milk toast. He's humdrum grading mara on that scale
by his standard, this particular sound bite is an atomic elbow.
Brian Dable, the now beloved coach of the Giants. He

(04:03):
has been getting public bubble bass all around New York City.
Not the kind of Deshaun Watson massages where you have
the happy baby pose, the happy baby yoga pose, and
not the Robert Kraft Orchids of Asia Days bab massages.
But I'm talking about going to New York Ranger games
at the Garden, the Mecca and having standing ovation. He's

(04:27):
the toast of the town. I know the Giants are back.
They won a playoff game against the Vikings. Being worshiped,
He's been turned into a godlike figure everywhere he goes
the Giant fan Genuflex. The message from ownership is rather obvious.
It was telegraphed in a comedic fashion, but it's there

(04:49):
that the owner of the team does not want the
coach of the Giants to become like a comic strip kittycat.
Garfield fat and hat right, he's already fat. Don't want
to be too happy there. That tasty of lasagna that
Garfield the eats is baked in rat poison. And by
the way, Bozo the Clown. From Bono to Bozo. Bozo

(05:12):
very popular in terms of clowns. Can you name five
clowns more popular than Bozo the Clown? I would argue
Ronald McDonald, for me, Krusty the Clown, But Bozo the
Clown is in the conversation and there aren't five clowns
in the world that are more famous than Bozo the Clown.

(05:34):
Now furthermore so, the Giants owner John Mara also took
time out of his busy schedule to give a tongue
bath to his quarterback. Did you hear that sound bite?
Maybe not. We've got the audio tape. We've got a
lot of little toys here. We've got a lot of audio.
But this is the Giants owner here commenting on the

(05:55):
makeup and the work ethic of Daniel Jones. Let's go
to the audio tape. We have a lot of confidence
in Daniel and just to see his work ethic and
his commitment get rewarded like that was a pretty cool thing.
And you know, as I said yesterday to the media,
I think there's no limit as to how high he
can climb if we just put the right pieces around him.

(06:15):
Because he has the type of makeup and personality and
mentality and work ethic to be a very successful quarterback
in this league. What kind of makeup he's wearing. It's
very impressive. So that was John Marra on his quarterback.
So how do you digest these words of praise for
Danny Dimes? So the first thought is, obviously, by the book,

(06:37):
the Giants owner is gonna he's gonna need to buy
some icy hot because he's likely pulling a muscle in
his back. He's indirectly patting himself on the back. When
you're the owner of the team and you're praising Daniel Jones,
you are celebrating yourself. What do I mean by that?

(06:59):
Because this was a very risky move. Vanilla Vic which
is one of his nicknames, he has been maggoty for years.
He's germ ridden, providing vile play most of his career
with the Giants, and last season there's this perception that
he was amazing. It's one of the great examples of

(07:19):
why when you win as a team, it lifts everyone
up right. A rising tide lifts all boats, A winning
football team lifts all players. And this is a textbook example,
and the perception is that Danny Dimes figured things out,
and that's why the Giants gave him a four year,
one hundred and sixty million dollars deal, which is really

(07:42):
a ninety two million dollars guarantee in new money for
Danny Dimes. But what if I told you last season
Daniel Jones had a grand total of fifteen passing touchdowns.
Fifteen passing touchdowns, which would have been great in nineteen
seventy five, not so much in the modern era. And

(08:03):
what have I also told you? The Giants passing offense
out of thirty two teams, ranked twenty sixth in the NFL.
That teams that either didn't have a quarterback or threw
out a quarterback that was inexperience, like the Texans, the Steelers,
and the Colts with all of their issues, still ranked
higher in terms of passing offense. Then the team that

(08:25):
made the playoffs and won all of those close games
the Giants. So that is why Robert mara is rubbing
the belly of Danny Dimes and patting his head with approval.
Now turning the pitch going down. The last point I
wanted to make talking some football here. Two weeks after

(08:47):
he was fired from the Dallas Cowboys. Running back zeke
Elliott is still unemployed. You might remember about eight days
ago as the crow Flies, Adam Schefter had a breaking
news report that it was down to three teams for
ze Kelly and he opened to decide by Friday. That
was last Friday. And no one is texting, no one

(09:12):
is calling zee Kellyott saying we would like to have
you on the team. In terms of actual NFL front offices,
but Philadelphia Eagle fans and some players are trying. The
team's not trying the people that work in the front office,
but some other people have social media please have been
coming in, including Meek Mill. Yeah, Philadelphia born Meek Mill

(09:38):
and Eagles offensive tackle Lane Johnson also involved in recruiting.
And I saw Travis Kelsey had said that, he said,
that's crazy. He was he was kidding around. He said, hey,
that's tampering. And this is now the second time that
Meek Mill has been dabbling in NFL transactions. Now I

(10:03):
realized that Kelsey had his tongue in his cheek. However,
when you combine this by meek Mill and what also
happened with the other NFL team in the Northeast, they're
up ninety five in Boston. Thumbs up or thumbs down.
Is Meek Mill meddling, crossing the line tampering in NFL business?

(10:29):
So I am going thumbs up on this. I'm going
thumbs up. Travis Kelsey, I realized he was joking, but
as Sigmund Freud said, there's a little bit of truth,
little grain of truth in every joke. And not involving
the Meek Mill, Zeke Elliott connection, that's pocket change. It's

(10:50):
the Lamar Jackson story. The NFL had sent out a
memo saying you cannot talk to non certified people regarding
Lamar Jackson. There was a guy, a business partner, going
around trying to get teams to offer Lamar Jackson all
this money. Meek Mill is not an NFL employee. What

(11:11):
Meek Mill is is a friend to aristocrats. He's friends
to the rich people. He's also not a certified agent.
So we have a digital paper trail of tears that
connect him to the crime scene in the form of
text messages to Robert Kraft. How do we know that

(11:32):
Robert Kraft bragged about it? The Patriot's owner. By the
letter of the law, that is a rules violation. When's
the memo coming out? When is the memo coming out?
At the very worst, At the very worst, you need
to kickets around and is it gonna happen now, No,
it's not gonna happen because the NFL they got a

(11:53):
guy who's friends with ownership and so they're like, yeah,
you know, Meek Mill's buddies with these guys. He hangs
out with him, so we'll give him a pass. But
somebody who's not in that circle, forget about it. I'd
forget about it. It is the Ben Maller Show, and
hopefully you won't forget about us. Don't forget that. Not
only is this show going to be up in the
podcast format with some hot baseball talk earlier. That'll be

(12:15):
up for you in a little bit when we're done
this hour, and you can hear all four hours if
you miss the beginning of the show because you actually
we're sleeping, you can hear all four hours. And also
today the fifth Hour podcast will be up and away
on the Fifth Hour Podcast, and you're not gonna want
to miss the Friday podcast, especially if you are a

(12:36):
fan of the postgame coaches meltdown. And we are big,
big supporters of the postgame coaches meltdown and that's all
I'll say. But you can hear that on the podcast,
The Fifth Hour Podcast, which will also be up a
little bit later. It's a spinoff only available spinoff of
this show, which is only available in the podcast format.

(13:41):
now live from the Tirerock dot com Fox Sports Radio Studios.
It's Ben Maller. We had a few viral moments on
opening day in baseball. We can do a little round
robin here. Even Eddie watched a little baseball game, he admitted,
did he watch some of the A's Angels game with
his wife? Was your wife watching that, Eddie? Were you

(14:02):
in the other room? We flipped over to it after
the King's okay. So there are two things that's probably
more than that. The in Houston, the Astros had Megan
the Stallion throw out the first pitch, right she threw
out theirs And I've read all over the internet this

(14:24):
was one of the great first pitches of all time,
and I disagree. I listen, I hear that. You know,
she's easy on the eyes, she's got a nice but donka,
donkan all that. That's let's be honest here, boys, this
was not you know, staring at her is fine, but
it's not like the greatest first pitch of all time.
Did I miss something? I don't know? Like the guy

(14:48):
who caught the ball is pretty happy. Well, yeah, he
got the hugger. He was very happy about that. But
like she stood on the mind, like with you know,
with her, you know, took us facing home play, which
is fine. And she knows she knows the moneymaker. But still,
I mean, you know, come on out, there's that. And

(15:09):
then at Dodger Stadium last night, in the Dodger Diamondback game,
a video that has gone viral. Coop directed me to this,
and I've seen a bunch of the stories on it.
So some dude jumps out of the pavilion, which is
the outfield seats at Dodger Stadium, out in left field.
The dude jumps out on the field. He's wearing a
Mookie Betch jersey. He goes on the grass, let's say,

(15:32):
about ten fifteen feet from the warning track. He then
turns around to the pavilion. He gets on a knee,
he pulls out a ring. He's it certainly appears he's
proposing marriage. He's proposing marriage here. And as he is
proposing the marriage, what happens next? The guy gets absolutely trucked.

(15:57):
He gets blindsided by the Dodgers Stadium security guard. And
when I say the guy got tackled, you will not
see as violent a tackle at at an NFL gate.
It was a Goldberg like spear. Oh my god, it
was insane. So will ay, will there be a lawsuit?

(16:22):
I'm gonna go I'm gonna go no, because he did trespass.
It did look pretty bad. I don't think there'll be
a lawsuit. And well, like, what do you think did
he expect to be able to run out on the
field and then just nothing would happen? I want to
know if he got the ring back, because the ring
goes flying when he gets tackled. He still got it
in his hand when he's getting just demolished and it

(16:44):
goes flying out of his hand onto the field. But
then he's getting put in in you know, cuffs or
zip ties or whatever. So I mean, what happened to
the ring? Now? Here's the other thing. Was this a
legitimate situation or was this just just to try to
get a viral video on tick? Was he actually proposing? Yeah,
it was that legit or he's like, hey, I'll run
out there and this you know? Yeah, I wonder that

(17:05):
also because like there's a point where I don't know
the one that I sent you the camerangle, he like
turns the phone around to look for whoever it is
he's proposing too, And none of those women look like
that are being proposed to. So I don't know if
he just didn't see the I don't know. Maybe he
was proposing to all of the women in the crowd.
One of them would say, yes, some beautiful women at

(17:29):
the Dodger game tonight, maybe one of them would want
to marry me. Maybe that will happen. Oh man, Uh, well,
if that was legit, he's he's I can see he
can't win a Darwin Award because he had a die
to win a Darwin Award. But that's impressive. That's a
that's next level, especially if his tickets were so expensive. Yeah,

(17:51):
I wish I had seen that earlier. You could attracked
the guy down. He's probably already at a jail. We
had that. We had the little teenage girl that ran
out in the field with Bellinger a couple of years ago.
We had her on the show and like they let
her go right away to her mom and all that.
But this guy's older. He looks a little older, so
they probably let him sit around for a little longer.
And speaking of odd moments of the ballpark, the Tampa

(18:12):
Bay Rays are being called out. What did the Tampa
Bay Rays do? Do you see what the Rays did here? Roberto?
Do you see this? Yes, the Tampa Bay Rays have
joined the Indianapolis Colts in the class banner. Yeah, yeah, Eddie,
they did a one of those runner up type banners situations.

(18:35):
What are they doing? The Rays unveiled a twenty twenty
two wild card banner. Yeah, how very clippers, How very
clippers of them? Well, the Clippers. By the way, they're
moving into arena that the Intuit dome that will have

(18:58):
the most toilets in the NBA. They're gonna leave all
of the NBA. And you say that doesn't matter, Eddie,
but trust me, appropriate if you've got a bowel issue
or you're an issue, if you got the runs, you're
gonna be very happy there. But I'm looking at the
photo here, twenty twenty two wild card right next to
their Al East twenty twenty one championship banner. So they

(19:21):
just like desk. They must be just desk. We gotta
put a lot of banners off because that. I've never
been to that stadium, but it looks like an absolute dump.
And I've had friends that have gone there and it
looks horrific. They tell me it's bad too. They the
people that have been another thing you were we were
talking about the times of the games off the air. Yes,
what are the what are the owners are gonna do
about a lot? They're gonna lose some revenue there thirty minutes.
Let's ye, that's eating and drinking. So yeah, yeah, But

(19:45):
the revenue they're worried about is the TV revenue, because
the TV people are like, you got to get these
games shorter. They're like, these games are too long. That's
the probably. Let's let's do a wellness check with Tony
in the bay. Hello Tony, he was on earlier. Hello Tony. Yeah, man,
everything good. You're feeling better, Tony. You've been on all night.
You've been on the show all night. You've been listening
to the whole thing. Everything good. Oh, the show is good.

(20:09):
I'm you know, I'm here. What are you doing? There's
some ambient noise in the background there, Tony? Everything? Okay,
what do you got going on there that you want
to ask that? I'm just driving. I'm not causing any
problems right now. Oh you're driving? Where are you driving to?
That's on a need to know basis, sir, huh Eddie

(20:30):
wants to know? Uh no, I don't all right. It
sounds good, thank you? All right? Okay, how's everything over there.
Do you care? Yeah? I do? Do you really care?
Are you really concerned? Are you? I need to know?

(20:53):
All right? Hit that button, Robertally, that button right there?
You hit that button for some reason? Hit the button?
Where'd the button go? Where's the button? That button? There
we go? All right? Every time you're on, Tony, there's
a there's a glitz of the matrix. Are you messing
with my equipment? Tony? Are you sending some kind of
cosmic message to screw up my studio? Is that what

(21:14):
you're doing? Well? I should clean the clocks over there,
because you told me it would be a half hour.
It's been about two hours. I just wanted to point
that out. You know, that's a bad job by you. Ben.
That's that's on Coop. That's justin Cooper Executive. You can
conta send me an email. I'll give you a Coop's
home number if you want his address, I'll give you that.
Whatever you need for Coop, he's the producer. Would you

(21:37):
guys like to hear the funny story? Do we have
a choice? Yeah, you can tell me the f off
and I guess so take that for what it is worth. Yeah, No,
I think we need to hear a story from Tony
in the Bay Area driving around. Go ahead, Tony, give
us a story that's about my friend Anthony. So he

(22:02):
got in a bad mood a couple of months ago
and decided to have a few shots at tequila for
breakfast and go to a place where he knew he
could find someone to meet up with. So he got there,
but the guy he wanted to see wasn't there, so
he wounded up getting another little shout at tequila and

(22:23):
lo and behold, the guy shows up. So Anthony goes
outside and says, hey, man, you need to get going.
The guy is, you know, gives him a little song
and dance. Hey man, I don't got no problem with you.
This then the other. So after about the second morning,
Anthony decided to throw a punch. You threw a punch.
The guy didn't even move. Now, to point it out,

(22:43):
Anthony's about five nine, one hundred and forty pounds. This
guy was about five ten, two hundred and thirty pounds,
So I could see why the guy didn't even move.
But the funny part of the story is he called
the person back at the house later on and said, hey,
what's wrong with that guy? And the person was like, Hey,
you know, that's just the way he is. And he says,
I think I need to go to the hospital. That's

(23:07):
quite the You're a real story teller. You got a future.
You do have a future. You should do books on tape.

Though this the movie as long as the game is it?
Is it a very long novel. It's a it's two
hours and fourteen minutes. You know, so all but surprisingly
it's got it's got really good reviews. Uh. It's got

I guess it's I guess it's fun. Lead the Lap

who Lead a Lap is? He does? Yes, Um. Moving
over to television, we have this new show on Amazon
Amazon Prime. It's called The Power and it is a

(27:31):
sci fi drama series ten part ten part series. Uh.
Takes place in an alternate world where all teenage girls
and only girls suddenly gained the power to electrocute people
at will. Which you know, I think that's real life
because when I was a teenager, the teenage girls tried

(27:51):
to electrocute, giving me the Evil Eye and all that.
So I think they've already had that power coup. Well,
so naturally this, uh, this has a major impact on
the balance of power in every society on the planet.
And so the series takes place in a number of
different global locations London, Nigeria, Seattle. Uh. And it has

(28:13):
an all female writing staff, all female directing staff. Uh.
And so yeah, this is was supposed to come out
several years ago, but you know, pandemic delays, and so
now it's finally coming out. The cast is led by
Tony Collette, who is a fantastic actress. John Leguizamo is
also a regular not okay, um, yes, moving on. Also

(28:39):
that is available today, by the way, on Amazon Prime Video.
And also available today is a new original movie from
Apple TV plus. Uh. This is called Tetris and it
is it is about It is about the famous video game. Uh.
It is basically, it's a it's a fictionalized verse version

(29:00):
of how the creation of Tetris happened and how an
entrepreneur played by tarn Enterton. Uh maybe he just made
it up and said, all right, we'll make a movie.
I think it's like based on actual events, but but
you know, fictionalized but but the actual invention invention of
Tetris was probably really boring, so they said, let's create
make it more exciting. Yeah. So basically what this guy

(29:22):
has to do is he has to make a trip
to the Soviet Union in nineteen eighty eight to help
the inventor of Tetris being bring Tetris to the world. Uh,
you know, obviously the Soviets. You don't don't want that
to have. I don't know. It looks good. It looks good.
And I like Taron Edgerton. He's he's he's pretty good.
If you got a bad guy, they're the bad guys,
the Russians, you guys, the good guys, perfect bad guys,

(29:44):
good guys. You gotta have a heel. You gotta have
the hero, the whole thing. That's right. Yeah, and then
