Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello and welcome.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
It's our number three, our three of our radio program.
It's on the podcast, on the podcast, limited commercial interruption,
talking food Ball. Lamar Jackson was welcome back to the
Ravens Nest as he agreed and signed his contract in Baltimore.
What is your viewpoint on the Ravens celebratory Lamar Jackson
(00:27):
news conference. Is it true that Baltimore gave Lamar Jackson
an NFL draft ultimatum to get the deal done? And
Lamar Jackson said that he is looking to pass for
six thousand yards? That is blank. That is blank. We'll
answer all of that, plus lame jokes of the week.
(00:49):
It's coming your way right now here in our number three,
back in the Nest. Well, come in the Big Denny,
another hour of the Ben Malors Show.
Speaker 1 (01:02):
We are in the air everywhere hob.

Tyre ract dot com, the way tire buying shoeb in
our lead this hour coming from Baltimore, where the bullshoy
(01:51):
was in the air everywhere, the Ravens rolling out the
red carpet, a gala media freeloaders event there for Lamar
jacks say, what if you didn't see this?
Speaker 1 (02:04):
Maybe not?
Speaker 2 (02:05):
Lamar Jackson crossed the t's and doted the ies on
that five year, two hundred and sixty million dollar contract.
All that money guaranteed, a lot of it is, So
how do you do, Lamar Jackson? We are told the
deal set records for signing bonus and also the most
(02:29):
money in the first three years of an agreement one
hundred and fifty six million the average per season. Lamar
will take home fifty two million dollars, which pretty good
considering he usually doesn't play the full year because of injury.
Jackson also received a no franchise tag clause and a
no trade.
Speaker 1 (02:45):
Clause in the deal.
Speaker 2 (02:47):
Keep in mind this happened after being at Loggerheads for
over two years. Jackson ended his contract still mate with
a massive windfall a bonanza, and he was welcome back
with the metaphorical cake and balloons.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
Hey I'm back. I'm back. Yes, everyone love me, Everyone
love me. I'm back.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
All right, So let us discuss the question what is
your viewpoint on the Ravens having a partiy with Lamar
Jackson and the contract extension news comerce. So I've got
Tommy Lee Jones, Rattlesnake, and theatric and we will connect
all of these things together. We're gonna play Connect three
(03:38):
is what we're gonna do. So, first of all, this
event went as expected. Now I was sleeping when it happened,
but thanks to that YouTube, I was able to go
back and watch it, and so it had a little
little flare at it on top from Lamar. Lamar Jackson
was on his best behavior. Both sides were Both sides
(04:01):
were spitting out niceties, following the etiquette of the day,
very polite, right. The Ravens buried the hatchet with one
of those cartoon sized checks seventy two point five million,
the signing bonus seventy two point five million. Of course,
after the Capitol, after different taxes, the federal taxes and on.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
You're not getting that much but sill. They were willing
to let byguns be byguns.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
And regardless of that, my favorite part of this was
the level of fertilizer. The level of fertilizer being laid
out at this shindick. For example, right Lamar Jackson, he
bragged that he didn't really care for other teams.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
He wanted to be rare.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
In fact, we actually have that audio. Listen you'll hear
the question and the answer. Listen to Lamar spin the
Dradal when talking about the very famous request to exit
Baltimore in.
Speaker 3 (05:00):
March, he tweeted out chats a month later, you signed,
you know, a record deal?
Speaker 4 (05:07):
What changed through that time, mister Jamison?
Speaker 5 (05:10):
You know what today, We're gonna keep it about the future.
You know, I'm not really worried about what happened in
the past. We're gonna keep it about these next five
years and keep it about you know what's going on today.
You know, it's a great day, great day. Just signed
with the guys up here that so I don't focus
on right now.
Speaker 1 (05:30):
Doesn't that sound like somebody that that sounds like somebody
in the ravens PR depart are here. You're gonna be
I guarantee you lamor somebodys gonna ask you about the
trade request. So here's what you do.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
You mumble that your you're you don't want to look
at the past, you want to look forward and all
that stuff. But the line he had where you didn't
really care for other teams and all that, like that
is one of those records scratch moments because back you know,
as you heard in early March, Lamar penned a he
literally wrote a farewell letter to the fans of the Ravens.
He said, on March second, I request a trade from
(06:02):
the Ravens organization.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
So who ghofed I've got to know.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
It's like Lamar Jackson is Tommy Lee Jones aka Agent
K the Great Men in Black Movies with his neuralizer
and the Ravens. And it's not just Lamar, it's the
Ravens pr staff also, they're like they're trying to wipe
the mind of any anything involving the trade request. You
(06:26):
see the flash, just like that, I'm gonna use the flash.
And then Lamar scrambled to create an alternative story to
replace the erased memories and all that. But every man,
woman and child know that Lamar would have absolutely gone
to play for the Falcons or the Colts or the
Dolphins of the Texans if they had paid him. I
(06:47):
could see a scenario, can't you where Lamar goes in
that little cartoon bubble over your over your head, Lamar.
Imagine if you will, a world where Lamar goes to
the Falcons and they work out a trade, and Lamar introduced.
He says, well, one of my inspirations growing up was
Michael Vick. And then he goes to the Colts and
he says, oh, I always loved watching Peyton Manning play
(07:09):
or Miami.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
And let me tell you something.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
When I've grown up, my parents taught me about Dan
Marino and the Dolphins and I'm Florida guy and I'm
coming home.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
And then the Texans. It would have been let me
tell you something. The food in Houston is amazing, the
people are great, and I love following Deshaun Watson. Boy
is that great?
Speaker 2 (07:30):
So all of that would have been said, but instead
he goes back to the Raves. Now, second, is it
true that the Ravens coerced Lamar Jackson into signing on
the dotted line when he did so?
Speaker 1 (07:47):
I am nodding my head. Yes, the streets in Maryland
are talking now.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
A big bird chirping to me, informing me that Baltimore
was prepared.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
To cross the Rubicon.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
To cross the Rubicon, they were going to burn the boats,
knock down the ladder. And is it also true that
the Ravens turned to Rattlesnake Venom to get this contract signed?
Speaker 1 (08:19):
How did they do that? The U word ultimatum? The
ultimatum was given.
Speaker 2 (08:26):
We are told from sources that would know that, our
friends of the show that the Ravens' front office informed
Lamar and the matriarch of the Jackson family, Mama, his mom,
who is his agent acting as his agent. They informed
the mom and Lamar that if a contract was not
(08:49):
agreed to buy the start of the Thursday NFL Draft,
they were going to do what they had to do,
whether it be via a trade or.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
Just keeping the pick that they had.
Speaker 2 (09:01):
They were planning on drafting a quarterback as a replacement
for Lamar Jackson. They twisted his arm. It worked as
we had suspected. We have been given confirmation. Lamar flinched
and he had nobody nibbling. There were no other offers
and It's a good problem to have, because Lamar Jackson
(09:25):
it get the seventy plus million dollar check right off
the bat. That's a good kind of ultimatum to get.
But the Baltimore football team keeps their quarterback, Lamar gets paid,
and upward and onward we go. Final thought, So Lamar
Jackson issued what we call the money quote from this
hooton Nanny and so I'm gonna go to cut three here, Roberto.
(09:48):
But it's the one clip that you have to save
in the archives. It's setting a lofty goal. There was
a number of yards tossed out. The Ravens made some
additions to the wide receivers room, and that led to
the quote of the day from Lamar Jackson.
Speaker 1 (10:06):
Let's go to the audio tape. Take a listen.
Speaker 5 (10:11):
I mean, I want to throw for like six thousand
yards with the weapons we have, you know. And I'm
not an individual war type of stat watcher, you know.
I just want to do that, you know, because no
one ever done, and I feel like we have the
weapons to do it.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
Okay, sure, why not, Hey Lamar Jackson, Let's discuss Lamar
Jackson saying he's looking at over six thousand yards passing
in the upcoming NFL season is blank. So I've got
theatric I've got I've got that as a start.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
I love it. Actually, I think this is hilarious.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
When I saw this, I like, oh boy, I pointed that.
I was watching on my computer, Like, I pointed.
Speaker 1 (10:52):
Oh, that's it. That's it. That's a quote. That's a
quote shoot.
Speaker 4 (10:55):
For the moon.
Speaker 1 (10:56):
It's like that old casey case of mine, keep your
feet on the ground and reach the stars.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
And that's what he's doing. Lamar is being a hype man. Blustery,
puffery is what he's doing. It's tolling the virtues of
Lamar's accent. I think it's hilarious. He's rhapsodizing his talent
and those in Baltimore. And of course most people would say,
rather than six thousand yards, rather than five thousand yards,
(11:21):
how about four thousand yards? You see, he's never even
gotten there. How about thirty five hundred yards. He's never
even sniffed that. Lamar Jackson has yet to get passed
thirty two hundred yards passing in a single season. And
so let's also address the Komodo dragon in the room.
(11:41):
Are the Baltimore receivers top notch. The Ravens have signed
Odell Beckham Junior and Nelson Aguilar in free agency. They
also drafted somebody named Zay Flowers with the number twenty.
Speaker 1 (11:56):
Two overall pick.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
So to answer the question of how good the Ravens
receivers are, they're marginally better. And here's why I can
go point by point. Odell Beckham is damaged goods until
proven otherwise. He did not play last year. And my
favorite is Nelson Agilar, the ex Eagle. You know what
(12:18):
his claim to fame is. I always with the Patriots
more recently, but you know what Agilar's claim to fame
is in the NFL dropping passes. One of the funniest
things we've done on It's not our show, but one
of the funniest things we played on this show was
from a random guy in Philadelphia several years ago.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
You remember this story.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
So there was a house on fire in Philly and
this homeless guy comes over and the house was engulfed
in flames, and so they were like these kids, It
was a really scary situation. There were kids in the
house the second story and so I think it was
the second story.
Speaker 1 (12:51):
So they had to.
Speaker 2 (12:52):
Drop the kids out of the burning house in Philadelphia
to save these little kids. And this homeless guy was
the hero of the day and he saved so many
kids because they dropped the kids out of the window
and they caught them. And the local TV station in
Philadelphia went up to this cat. They interviewed him right
after this happened. He had just saved babies from a
(13:15):
burning building by catching them, and he's lined to the
local TV station in Philadelphia was the following, Take a listen.
Speaker 3 (13:24):
My man just start throwing babies out the window. We
was catching them, unlike Agilar.
Speaker 1 (13:33):
Unlike unlike Agalar, unlike Agalar. The line of lines and that's.
Speaker 2 (13:39):
That's the guy that Lamar Jackson thinks is gonna help
him get to six thousand yards. Oh my god, oh boy. Okay,
And then I don't know, I'd say Flowers could be good.
I don't you known't with a rookie wide receiver, who
the hell knows. I mean, sometimes these guys are great,
and then.
Speaker 1 (13:52):
There's like a fifty to fifty shot on that. Good luck,
good luck. And plus Beckham and Agilar are not exactly
the ironman in the NFL. Of course, neither is neither's
Lamar Jackson. But that is that is just wonderful.

Speaker 2 (17:10):
Veteran NBA player, one of my favorite Clippers, the Blue Guy,
Patrick Beverley. He's not with the clips anymore, but he says,
fifty percent of the NBA players do not blank. I
had a feeling we get some good answers, and you
have not disappointed me. You do not disappoint me with this,
so so.
Speaker 1 (17:30):
Good, so good. I love it. All right, what else
we have here?
Speaker 2 (17:34):
Pap Beverly said, as Jay Dot in Utah, a buddy,
Jay Dot says Pap Beverley said fifty percent of players
do not eat pie bean.
Speaker 1 (17:43):
Boot Maker Bob says do not pee sitting down. Wow,
they enjoy the worm in their tequila. Yes by late night.
Speaker 2 (17:53):
Drug tester Rod the Ambassador of Bakersfield got it right.
Speaker 1 (18:01):
How dare you have to get rawed down here again sometime?
If he's able to have him come down hang out with.
Speaker 2 (18:07):
A malaprop Guy says fifty of NBA players do not
believe that basketball is around. They are members of the
flat ballers Society. Milkman Mike says, watch out, Tony in
the bay is watching you. Saw Man says fifty percent
of NBA players do not floss regularly.
Speaker 1 (18:29):
Page down, page down. Justin in the enchanted for says
that hookers are people too Beverly according to Rocket Vicky
got it right, bad job by you. Who else do
we have? Page down?
Speaker 2 (18:43):
The Funhouse account said fifty NBA players do not wash
their jockstrap after a game, and Black Steve the Second
in North Carolina says they do not tip their tip
at restaurants, so that would be cool. Let's see, do
not wash behind their ears. Just Josh do not like
short people or little dogs guess by Stevie Meatballs in Florida.
Speaker 1 (19:07):
Let's see, he can't read that on you. That was funny,
but we can't read that.
Speaker 2 (19:11):
Alf the alien ol pinter says that they do not
admit that Sean Kemp is actually their father. Do not
celebrate sinko demayo. That was guessed by Ike in Roseville, Minnesota.
Let's he can't read that. Ricardo says fifty players don't
love the game or Lebron's hairline. That was his answer.
Do not like fruit roll ups guessed by Fudgie. Do
(19:33):
not tie their own shoes guessed by Pizza. This is
pretty good. Andy the comic book guy says, gamble in
the facility is the answer, Chip and the cues going
with wipe their own tushes.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
Brian, do you have an answer to the Mallard riddle
of the day, Ben Ben?
Speaker 6 (19:50):
The correct answer is fifty of NBA players do not
brush their teeth. That is actually true.
Speaker 2 (19:55):
That would not be right, is incorrect. The correct answer
fifth thy percent of NBA players do not love basketball,
according to bad That Beverly, and he said, there are
some really ef and good ones.
Speaker 1 (20:11):
The most skilled players. He said, it's the Wild's playing on.
I totally believe.
Speaker 2 (20:16):
I think Anthony Davis does not love basketball. Kawhi Leonard
love basketball. I'm convinced of it.
Speaker 7 (20:24):
And yeah, yeah, obvious one is Kyrie Irving.
Speaker 2 (20:29):
Right, and Kyrie I think Lebron does. I rip Lebron,
but I think he does. I think he truly loves basketball.
But but yeah, it's it's. We talked about this the
other day.
Speaker 1 (20:39):
On the show.
Speaker 2 (20:39):
And I've had coaches, We've had coaches from NFL coaches
that worked here over the years that have told me
that a lot of guys that they coached, they just
happened to be really good and it was a way
to improve their situation financially and for their families, and
they they could ride this as far as the NFL
would take them, but they didn't really love it. They
didn't really of it. So let just go to the
(21:01):
phones and eenie meenie miney mo. Let's say hello to
sir scratch Off, who is hanging out in Arkansas. Hello,
sir scratch Off.
Speaker 8 (21:10):
Hey, you know I want to tell you something. You
hadn't figured this out on the thing, but you got
some real talent out there, and that big Josh man,
you needn't get him on talent. Now his lafet dinner
and start saying a bunch of stuff. He got some
he got some good posts out there, man, him and
over ups milk. Man, you got some talent. You don't
give them enough time. Brother, you don't give enough time.
(21:32):
But I'm ready for that talent show. I got my
song worked up, and I'm more dedicated to all mad
militia because this is Andy.
Speaker 1 (21:39):
So you're already prepared. Well, here we are in early May,
and you're already prepared to celebrate the talent show, which
will happen all Star Week in Major League Baseball. You're
prepared for that.
Speaker 8 (21:51):
I mean, I've been standing around a piano fifty seven years,
around my dad, my five rother sister. I'm gona take
you something right now. When I got prepared, I used
to listen to it forever, and when I was back
in my drinking days, and I get out to eat
McDonald fries and Drake Beard and listen to this song
about one hundred times.
Speaker 2 (22:06):
I'm all right, Well listen. The Mallard Palooza will be
back this summer. Anyone that would like to enter. We
had some amazing talents in years past, and if you
have a song, if you want to dance, whatever you
want to do, and we'll have that coming up in
the summer time. It's our biggest event of the summer,
and it really is the most important event in all
of sports talk radio during the summer.
Speaker 8 (22:27):
It's fun. It's fun too. But some of them, some
of the people I would say, just like stay, you know,
just sit there and listening toself in a mirror something
before they sing this. I crafts terrible.
Speaker 2 (22:36):
But anyways, many of those people also think you should
listen to yourself before.
Speaker 1 (22:41):
You call in. So it is a mutual feeling. It
is shared by others.
Speaker 8 (22:47):
Hang your names in there being man, I'm telling you're
gonna be proud of the song. Buddy. Okay, Oh dude,

That's his guy. He was all in on him.
Speaker 1 (23:50):

You're off the show.
Speaker 2 (25:37):
Listen to the Polly and Tony Fusco Show on the
iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcast or wherever you get your podcasts.
Let's go back to the phones and we'll say hello
to Alamida Lou who's hanging out in the bay. Did
not call up after the Warriors took it on the
chin right away, but he's here today.
Speaker 1 (25:57):
Hello, alam me to Lou.
Speaker 9 (26:00):
You know me Ben the Bandwagoner when you introduced me
on the Verbal Octagon, and you know, might as well
call in during a win.
Speaker 8 (26:08):
Thanks so Ben, Uh.
Speaker 9 (26:10):
Apparently there's a Mallard Talent show and I've been ruminating
on that and i want to throw my hat into
the ring and I'm gonna write a song that would be.
Speaker 1 (26:20):
Great like it is a town show.
Speaker 9 (26:22):
It is almost heaven, Ben Mallor, I'll save the rest
for later. Good win by the Warriors tonight, Just amazing
what happens when the referees aren't giving the Lakers twenty
three twenty three points?
Speaker 2 (26:38):
Yeah, So can you explain you're you're of course impartial
alomy to Lou from the very area. So I pointed
this out the other day, and and people.
Speaker 1 (26:48):
Are you're you're an idiot, you don't know what jab.
Speaker 8 (26:53):
On Twitter?
Speaker 2 (26:54):
Here Ben, Wait, wait, Lou, but but Blue if it
just stare with me, hold on, take a breath.
Speaker 1 (26:58):
But but Lou, am I not mistake in that?
Speaker 2 (27:00):
Game two verified and validated the take that if the
game is officiated evenly the Warriors win by twenty five plus.
Speaker 4 (27:07):
Points, you're absolutely mistaken. In fact, you just continue to
sound dumb.
Speaker 9 (27:11):
Okay, Coop, relax, right, I wasn't talking to you, Luke.
Speaker 8 (27:16):
You're more or less right.
Speaker 9 (27:18):
I mean, nobody wants to be the guy that blames
the whistle, like I said to you. But Game one
was pretty egregiously officiated, and the Warriors blew him out
of the building tonight.
Speaker 1 (27:26):
It was an Injustice. Game one was an Injustice.
Speaker 7 (27:29):
It was a scared hey hey, hey dudeis why don't
you why don't you look at the game the look
at the points in the paint, the first the first
look at the points in the paint the first game
compared to this game.
Speaker 2 (27:41):
But Coop, your your hypothesis was Golden State's a jump
shooting team?
Speaker 3 (27:45):
Yes?
Speaker 4 (27:46):
Correct?
Speaker 1 (27:47):
So, uh, you don't even realize how stupid you sound
right now?
Speaker 4 (27:51):
Really tell me why realize? Tell me why.
Speaker 1 (27:53):
Don't don't understand simple basketball.
Speaker 4 (27:57):
I'm waiting for you to tell me why.
Speaker 1 (27:59):
Fascinating to me you're taking away.
Speaker 7 (28:01):
From the Okay, so so you so you don't have
any idea why?
Speaker 1 (28:05):
You can just send me lou? Would you like to
be drown?
Speaker 4 (28:09):
I dropped, Lou.
Speaker 7 (28:10):
So let's let's hang up on our of me to look.
So let's let's so let's hear why I want. I'm
waiting for an explanation. You're so smart about basketball.
Speaker 1 (28:19):
The game coople, it was officiated the proper way.
Speaker 2 (28:22):
How so if they wanted, there were plenty of fouls
to be called in that game, but they did not
call them because they let the game. They let the
players on the court decide the game, which is good officiating.
That's the way you officiated. You don't understand that. I
can't explain it to you on the radio because you're
it's clearly old.
Speaker 7 (28:41):
You can't explain it because you have no explanation.
Speaker 4 (28:45):
It's just all you do. You're like an It comes.
Speaker 1 (28:48):
To this, it's unbelievable.
Speaker 4 (28:51):
No, you are like a like a five year old.
Speaker 7 (28:52):
If if the Lakers ever win, it's always some it's
always for some other reason the league wants it to happen.
Speaker 4 (28:58):
But if the Lakers lose.
Speaker 8 (28:59):
I think.
Speaker 1 (29:03):
Is lified, it is certified.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
They're ridiculous, bonafide that what happened in Game one was ridiculous,
all right, and real basketball. In fact, during your in fact,
during your monologue, shoals should be crucified.
Speaker 4 (29:21):
Look at look at the game. You didn't watch the game.
Speaker 7 (29:26):
The Warriors had more points in the game this game
than the Lakers did.
Speaker 2 (29:29):
My god, Cooper Loop, you are so misguided. It could
there were plenty of fouls when the Warriors were setting screens.
The Lakers are setting screens. You can call fouls every
single possession in the NBA if you want to, You
can call a foul because there's okay.
Speaker 7 (29:43):
So then so they play the games. Why do they
even play the games? Why don't even watch? According to you,
referees jokes, According to this guy, decide every single game.
Speaker 2 (29:56):
If they decide the games, where they're unbalanced with the
calls this game when they let the players decided gold
Stay twenty seven points better than the Lakers.
Speaker 1 (30:04):
They allowed the game to bread.
Speaker 4 (30:06):
That's so dumb.
Speaker 1 (30:07):
It's not dumb at all.
Speaker 4 (30:09):
No, according to you, they should just know. They should
just never call a foul.
Speaker 7 (30:12):
If the Lakers are getting fouled in the paint, they
shouldn't call it.
Speaker 2 (30:16):
Listen, Coople, I know you're dissatisfied with what happened, and
I would be too.
Speaker 4 (30:20):
I don't care. Story, I don't care.
Speaker 1 (30:22):
I said, they sound like someone that cares cool.
Speaker 7 (30:24):
No, I'm just pointing out to the ridiculous you are
that you SI just pointing out how you know.
Speaker 4 (30:30):
Knowing about basketball. That's what I'm joining out by this.
I said, Lakers in five and guess what. In order
for that to happen, they have to lose the game.
So we're still on.
Speaker 2 (30:40):
You are taking away from the marvelous, miraculous.
Speaker 4 (30:44):
Yes, I'm not sure that.
Speaker 2 (30:48):
With Laker propaganda, and nobody wants to hear Laker propaganda.
Speaker 4 (30:51):
Okay, Lakers in five.
Speaker 2 (30:55):
Okay, listen, you're stealing, I said, Warriors, if you're stealing
my material, so you must know the NBA is going
to help the Lakers out.
Speaker 4 (31:02):
With oh yeah, see yeah, and you're setting up your excuse.
Speaker 1 (31:05):
That's what you're doing again. If you if you take
the foul shooting.
Speaker 7 (31:09):
Away, the Warriors foul shooting away, because that's biased to
the Lakers, to the Lakers because the.
Speaker 2 (31:20):
Old bag right now, the n b A has been rigged.
David Stern and the NBA Joe Commissioner rigged it and
they realized they can make a lot of money. And
idiots like you would say, it's not rigged, it's just
it's just good to frustrating when the Lakers get every
freaking call.
Speaker 1 (31:37):
It's a total it's nonsense. It's unbelievable. It's totally just
honest of you to say such things. And what was
wrong with you?
Speaker 8 (31:45):
How dare you the Clippers.
Speaker 1 (31:52):
I was waiting for that volcano from Coop, and I mean.

lame jokes of the week shortened by the Kogodoos
Hello and welcome.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
It's our number three, our three of our radio program.
It's on the podcast, on the podcast, limited commercial interruption,
talking food Ball. Lamar Jackson was welcome back to the
Ravens Nest as he agreed and signed his contract in Baltimore.
What is your viewpoint on the Ravens celebratory Lamar Jackson
(00:27):
news conference. Is it true that Baltimore gave Lamar Jackson
an NFL draft ultimatum to get the deal done? And
Lamar Jackson said that he is looking to pass for
six thousand yards? That is blank. That is blank. We'll
answer all of that, plus lame jokes of the week.
(00:49):
It's coming your way right now here in our number three,
back in the Nest. Well, come in the Big Denny,
another hour of the Ben Malors Show.

Tyre ract dot com, the way tire buying shoeb in
our lead this hour coming from Baltimore, where the bullshoy
(01:51):
was in the air everywhere, the Ravens rolling out the
red carpet, a gala media freeloaders event there for Lamar
jacks say, what if you didn't see this?
Speaker 1 (02:04):
Maybe not?
Speaker 2 (02:05):
Lamar Jackson crossed the t's and doted the ies on
that five year, two hundred and sixty million dollar contract.
All that money guaranteed, a lot of it is, So
how do you do, Lamar Jackson? We are told the
deal set records for signing bonus and also the most
(02:29):
money in the first three years of an agreement one
hundred and fifty six million the average per season. Lamar
will take home fifty two million dollars, which pretty good
considering he usually doesn't play the full year because of injury.
Jackson also received a no franchise tag clause and a
no trade.
Speaker 1 (02:45):
Clause in the deal.
Speaker 2 (02:47):
Keep in mind this happened after being at Loggerheads for
over two years. Jackson ended his contract still mate with
a massive windfall a bonanza, and he was welcome back
with the metaphorical cake and balloons.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
Hey I'm back. I'm back. Yes, everyone love me, Everyone
love me. I'm back.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
All right, So let us discuss the question what is
your viewpoint on the Ravens having a partiy with Lamar
Jackson and the contract extension news comerce. So I've got
Tommy Lee Jones, Rattlesnake, and theatric and we will connect
all of these things together. We're gonna play Connect three
(03:38):
is what we're gonna do. So, first of all, this
event went as expected. Now I was sleeping when it happened,
but thanks to that YouTube, I was able to go
back and watch it, and so it had a little
little flare at it on top from Lamar. Lamar Jackson
was on his best behavior. Both sides were Both sides
(04:01):
were spitting out niceties, following the etiquette of the day,
very polite, right. The Ravens buried the hatchet with one
of those cartoon sized checks seventy two point five million,
the signing bonus seventy two point five million. Of course,
after the Capitol, after different taxes, the federal taxes and on.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
You're not getting that much but sill. They were willing
to let byguns be byguns.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
And regardless of that, my favorite part of this was
the level of fertilizer. The level of fertilizer being laid
out at this shindick. For example, right Lamar Jackson, he
bragged that he didn't really care for other teams.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
He wanted to be rare.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
In fact, we actually have that audio. Listen you'll hear
the question and the answer. Listen to Lamar spin the
Dradal when talking about the very famous request to exit
Baltimore in.
Speaker 3 (05:00):
March, he tweeted out chats a month later, you signed,
you know, a record deal?
Speaker 4 (05:07):
What changed through that time, mister Jamison?
Speaker 5 (05:10):
You know what today, We're gonna keep it about the future.
You know, I'm not really worried about what happened in
the past. We're gonna keep it about these next five
years and keep it about you know what's going on today.
You know, it's a great day, great day. Just signed
with the guys up here that so I don't focus
on right now.
Speaker 1 (05:30):
Doesn't that sound like somebody that that sounds like somebody
in the ravens PR depart are here. You're gonna be
I guarantee you lamor somebodys gonna ask you about the
trade request. So here's what you do.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
You mumble that your you're you don't want to look
at the past, you want to look forward and all
that stuff. But the line he had where you didn't
really care for other teams and all that, like that
is one of those records scratch moments because back you know,
as you heard in early March, Lamar penned a he
literally wrote a farewell letter to the fans of the Ravens.
He said, on March second, I request a trade from
(06:02):
the Ravens organization.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
So who ghofed I've got to know.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
It's like Lamar Jackson is Tommy Lee Jones aka Agent
K the Great Men in Black Movies with his neuralizer
and the Ravens. And it's not just Lamar, it's the
Ravens pr staff also, they're like they're trying to wipe
the mind of any anything involving the trade request. You
(06:26):
see the flash, just like that, I'm gonna use the flash.
And then Lamar scrambled to create an alternative story to
replace the erased memories and all that. But every man,
woman and child know that Lamar would have absolutely gone
to play for the Falcons or the Colts or the
Dolphins of the Texans if they had paid him. I
(06:47):
could see a scenario, can't you where Lamar goes in
that little cartoon bubble over your over your head, Lamar.
Imagine if you will, a world where Lamar goes to
the Falcons and they work out a trade, and Lamar introduced.
He says, well, one of my inspirations growing up was
Michael Vick. And then he goes to the Colts and
he says, oh, I always loved watching Peyton Manning play
(07:09):
or Miami.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
And let me tell you something.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
When I've grown up, my parents taught me about Dan
Marino and the Dolphins and I'm Florida guy and I'm
coming home.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
And then the Texans. It would have been let me
tell you something. The food in Houston is amazing, the
people are great, and I love following Deshaun Watson. Boy
is that great?
Speaker 2 (07:30):
So all of that would have been said, but instead
he goes back to the Raves. Now, second, is it
true that the Ravens coerced Lamar Jackson into signing on
the dotted line when he did so?
Speaker 1 (07:47):
I am nodding my head. Yes, the streets in Maryland
are talking now.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
A big bird chirping to me, informing me that Baltimore
was prepared.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
To cross the Rubicon.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
To cross the Rubicon, they were going to burn the boats,
knock down the ladder. And is it also true that
the Ravens turned to Rattlesnake Venom to get this contract signed?
Speaker 1 (08:19):
How did they do that? The U word ultimatum? The
ultimatum was given.
Speaker 2 (08:26):
We are told from sources that would know that, our
friends of the show that the Ravens' front office informed
Lamar and the matriarch of the Jackson family, Mama, his mom,
who is his agent acting as his agent. They informed
the mom and Lamar that if a contract was not
(08:49):
agreed to buy the start of the Thursday NFL Draft,
they were going to do what they had to do,
whether it be via a trade or.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
Just keeping the pick that they had.
Speaker 2 (09:01):
They were planning on drafting a quarterback as a replacement
for Lamar Jackson. They twisted his arm. It worked as
we had suspected. We have been given confirmation. Lamar flinched
and he had nobody nibbling. There were no other offers
and It's a good problem to have, because Lamar Jackson
(09:25):
it get the seventy plus million dollar check right off
the bat. That's a good kind of ultimatum to get.
But the Baltimore football team keeps their quarterback, Lamar gets paid,
and upward and onward we go. Final thought, So Lamar
Jackson issued what we call the money quote from this
hooton Nanny and so I'm gonna go to cut three here, Roberto.
(09:48):
But it's the one clip that you have to save
in the archives. It's setting a lofty goal. There was
a number of yards tossed out. The Ravens made some
additions to the wide receivers room, and that led to
the quote of the day from Lamar Jackson.
Speaker 1 (10:06):
Let's go to the audio tape. Take a listen.
Speaker 5 (10:11):
I mean, I want to throw for like six thousand
yards with the weapons we have, you know. And I'm
not an individual war type of stat watcher, you know.
I just want to do that, you know, because no
one ever done, and I feel like we have the
weapons to do it.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
Okay, sure, why not, Hey Lamar Jackson, Let's discuss Lamar
Jackson saying he's looking at over six thousand yards passing
in the upcoming NFL season is blank. So I've got
theatric I've got I've got that as a start.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
I love it. Actually, I think this is hilarious.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
When I saw this, I like, oh boy, I pointed that.
I was watching on my computer, Like, I pointed.
Speaker 1 (10:52):
Oh, that's it. That's it. That's a quote. That's a
quote shoot.
Speaker 4 (10:55):
For the moon.
Speaker 1 (10:56):
It's like that old casey case of mine, keep your
feet on the ground and reach the stars.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
And that's what he's doing. Lamar is being a hype man. Blustery,
puffery is what he's doing. It's tolling the virtues of
Lamar's accent. I think it's hilarious. He's rhapsodizing his talent
and those in Baltimore. And of course most people would say,
rather than six thousand yards, rather than five thousand yards,
(11:21):
how about four thousand yards? You see, he's never even
gotten there. How about thirty five hundred yards. He's never
even sniffed that. Lamar Jackson has yet to get passed
thirty two hundred yards passing in a single season. And
so let's also address the Komodo dragon in the room.
(11:41):
Are the Baltimore receivers top notch. The Ravens have signed
Odell Beckham Junior and Nelson Aguilar in free agency. They
also drafted somebody named Zay Flowers with the number twenty.
Speaker 1 (11:56):
Two overall pick.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
So to answer the question of how good the Ravens
receivers are, they're marginally better. And here's why I can
go point by point. Odell Beckham is damaged goods until
proven otherwise. He did not play last year. And my
favorite is Nelson Agilar, the ex Eagle. You know what
(12:18):
his claim to fame is. I always with the Patriots
more recently, but you know what Agilar's claim to fame
is in the NFL dropping passes. One of the funniest
things we've done on It's not our show, but one
of the funniest things we played on this show was
from a random guy in Philadelphia several years ago.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
You remember this story.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
So there was a house on fire in Philly and
this homeless guy comes over and the house was engulfed
in flames, and so they were like these kids, It
was a really scary situation. There were kids in the
house the second story and so I think it was
the second story.
Speaker 1 (12:51):
So they had to.
Speaker 2 (12:52):
Drop the kids out of the burning house in Philadelphia
to save these little kids. And this homeless guy was
the hero of the day and he saved so many
kids because they dropped the kids out of the window
and they caught them. And the local TV station in
Philadelphia went up to this cat. They interviewed him right
after this happened. He had just saved babies from a
(13:15):
burning building by catching them, and he's lined to the
local TV station in Philadelphia was the following, Take a listen.
Speaker 3 (13:24):
My man just start throwing babies out the window. We
was catching them, unlike Agilar.
Speaker 1 (13:33):
Unlike unlike Agalar, unlike Agalar. The line of lines and that's.
Speaker 2 (13:39):
That's the guy that Lamar Jackson thinks is gonna help
him get to six thousand yards. Oh my god, oh boy. Okay,

Speaker 1 (17:06):
Malor riddle of the day. The malor Riddle of day.
Speaker 2 (17:10):
Veteran NBA player, one of my favorite Clippers, the Blue Guy,
Patrick Beverley. He's not with the clips anymore, but he says,
fifty percent of the NBA players do not blank. I
had a feeling we get some good answers, and you
have not disappointed me. You do not disappoint me with this,
so so.
Speaker 1 (17:30):
Good, so good. I love it. All right, what else
we have here?
Speaker 2 (17:34):
Pap Beverly said, as Jay Dot in Utah, a buddy,
Jay Dot says Pap Beverley said fifty percent of players
do not eat pie bean.
Speaker 1 (17:43):
Boot Maker Bob says do not pee sitting down. Wow,
they enjoy the worm in their tequila. Yes by late night.
Speaker 2 (17:53):
Drug tester Rod the Ambassador of Bakersfield got it right.
Speaker 1 (18:01):
How dare you have to get rawed down here again sometime?
If he's able to have him come down hang out with.
Speaker 2 (18:07):
A malaprop Guy says fifty of NBA players do not
believe that basketball is around. They are members of the
flat ballers Society. Milkman Mike says, watch out, Tony in
the bay is watching you. Saw Man says fifty percent
of NBA players do not floss regularly.
Speaker 1 (18:29):
Page down, page down. Justin in the enchanted for says
that hookers are people too Beverly according to Rocket Vicky
got it right, bad job by you. Who else do
we have? Page down?
Speaker 2 (18:43):
The Funhouse account said fifty NBA players do not wash
their jockstrap after a game, and Black Steve the Second
in North Carolina says they do not tip their tip
at restaurants, so that would be cool. Let's see, do
not wash behind their ears. Just Josh do not like
short people or little dogs guess by Stevie Meatballs in Florida.
Speaker 1 (19:07):
Let's see, he can't read that on you. That was funny,
but we can't read that.
Speaker 2 (19:11):
Alf the alien ol pinter says that they do not
admit that Sean Kemp is actually their father. Do not
celebrate sinko demayo. That was guessed by Ike in Roseville, Minnesota.
Let's he can't read that. Ricardo says fifty players don't
love the game or Lebron's hairline. That was his answer.
Do not like fruit roll ups guessed by Fudgie. Do
(19:33):
not tie their own shoes guessed by Pizza. This is
pretty good. Andy the comic book guy says, gamble in
the facility is the answer, Chip and the cues going
with wipe their own tushes.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
Brian, do you have an answer to the Mallard riddle
of the day, Ben Ben?
Speaker 6 (19:50):
The correct answer is fifty of NBA players do not
brush their teeth. That is actually true.
Speaker 2 (19:55):
That would not be right, is incorrect. The correct answer
fifth thy percent of NBA players do not love basketball,
according to bad That Beverly, and he said, there are
some really ef and good ones.
Speaker 1 (20:11):
The most skilled players. He said, it's the Wild's playing on.
I totally believe.
Speaker 2 (20:16):
I think Anthony Davis does not love basketball. Kawhi Leonard
love basketball. I'm convinced of it.
Speaker 7 (20:24):
And yeah, yeah, obvious one is Kyrie Irving.
Speaker 2 (20:29):
Right, and Kyrie I think Lebron does. I rip Lebron,
but I think he does. I think he truly loves basketball.
But but yeah, it's it's. We talked about this the
other day.
Speaker 1 (20:39):
On the show.
Speaker 2 (20:39):
And I've had coaches, We've had coaches from NFL coaches
that worked here over the years that have told me
that a lot of guys that they coached, they just
happened to be really good and it was a way
to improve their situation financially and for their families, and
they they could ride this as far as the NFL
would take them, but they didn't really love it. They
didn't really of it. So let just go to the
(21:01):
phones and eenie meenie miney mo. Let's say hello to
sir scratch Off, who is hanging out in Arkansas. Hello,
sir scratch Off.
Speaker 8 (21:10):
Hey, you know I want to tell you something. You

he got some good posts out there, man, him and
over ups milk. Man, you got some talent. You don't
give them enough time. Brother, you don't give enough time.
(21:32):
But I'm ready for that talent show. I got my
song worked up, and I'm more dedicated to all mad

I mean, I've been standing around a piano fifty seven years,
around my dad, my five rother sister. I'm gona take
you something right now. When I got prepared, I used
to listen to it forever, and when I was back

McDonald fries and Drake Beard and listen to this song
about one hundred times.
Speaker 2 (22:06):
I'm all right, Well listen. The Mallard Palooza will be

had some amazing talents in years past, and if you
have a song, if you want to dance, whatever you
want to do, and we'll have that coming up in
the summer time. It's our biggest event of the summer,
and it really is the most important event in all
of sports talk radio during the summer.
Speaker 8 (22:27):
It's fun. It's fun too. But some of them, some
of the people I would say, just like stay, you know,
just sit there and listening toself in a mirror something
before they sing this. I crafts terrible.
Speaker 2 (22:36):
But anyways, many of those people also think you should
listen to yourself before.
Speaker 1 (22:41):
You call in. So it is a mutual feeling. It
is shared by others.
Speaker 8 (22:47):
Hang your names in there being man, I'm telling you're

curse on the air. What's wrong with you?
Speaker 8 (23:38):

That's his guy. He was all in on him.
Speaker 1 (23:50):

This is Roberto because he picked in the pick him
this week, one of these hot Dodger suspects who went
out and barfed all over the mound.

chin right away, but he's here today.
Speaker 1 (25:57):
Hello, alam me to Lou.
Speaker 9 (26:00):
You know me Ben the Bandwagoner when you introduced me
on the Verbal Octagon, and you know, might as well
call in during a win.
Speaker 8 (26:08):
Thanks so Ben, Uh.
Speaker 9 (26:10):
Apparently there's a Mallard Talent show and I've been ruminating
on that and i want to throw my hat into
the ring and I'm gonna write a song that would be.
Speaker 1 (26:20):
Great like it is a town show.
Speaker 9 (26:22):
It is almost heaven, Ben Mallor, I'll save the rest
for later. Good win by the Warriors tonight, Just amazing
what happens when the referees aren't giving the Lakers twenty
three twenty three points?
Speaker 2 (26:38):
Yeah, So can you explain you're you're of course impartial
alomy to Lou from the very area. So I pointed
this out the other day, and and people.
Speaker 1 (26:48):
Are you're you're an idiot, you don't know what jab.
Speaker 8 (26:53):
On Twitter?
Speaker 2 (26:54):
Here Ben, Wait, wait, Lou, but but Blue if it
just stare with me, hold on, take a breath.
Speaker 1 (26:58):
But but Lou, am I not mistake in that?
Speaker 2 (27:00):
Game two verified and validated the take that if the
game is officiated evenly the Warriors win by twenty five plus.
Speaker 4 (27:07):
Points, you're absolutely mistaken. In fact, you just continue to
sound dumb.
Speaker 9 (27:11):
Okay, Coop, relax, right, I wasn't talking to you, Luke.
Speaker 8 (27:16):
You're more or less right.
Speaker 9 (27:18):
I mean, nobody wants to be the guy that blames
the whistle, like I said to you. But Game one
was pretty egregiously officiated, and the Warriors blew him out
of the building tonight.
Speaker 1 (27:26):
It was an Injustice. Game one was an Injustice.
Speaker 7 (27:29):
It was a scared hey hey, hey dudeis why don't
you why don't you look at the game the look
at the points in the paint, the first the first
look at the points in the paint the first game
compared to this game.
Speaker 2 (27:41):
But Coop, your your hypothesis was Golden State's a jump
shooting team?
Speaker 3 (27:45):
Yes?
Speaker 4 (27:46):
Correct?
Speaker 1 (27:47):
So, uh, you don't even realize how stupid you sound
right now?
Speaker 4 (27:51):
Really tell me why realize? Tell me why.
Speaker 1 (27:53):
Don't don't understand simple basketball.
Speaker 4 (27:57):
I'm waiting for you to tell me why.
Speaker 1 (27:59):
Fascinating to me you're taking away.
Speaker 7 (28:01):
From the Okay, so so you so you don't have
any idea why?
Speaker 1 (28:05):
You can just send me lou? Would you like to
be drown?
Speaker 4 (28:09):
I dropped, Lou.
Speaker 7 (28:10):
So let's let's hang up on our of me to look.
So let's let's so let's hear why I want. I'm
waiting for an explanation. You're so smart about basketball.
Speaker 1 (28:19):
The game coople, it was officiated the proper way.
Speaker 2 (28:22):
How so if they wanted, there were plenty of fouls
to be called in that game, but they did not
call them because they let the game. They let the
players on the court decide the game, which is good officiating.
That's the way you officiated. You don't understand that. I
can't explain it to you on the radio because you're
it's clearly old.
Speaker 7 (28:41):
You can't explain it because you have no explanation.
Speaker 4 (28:45):
It's just all you do. You're like an It comes.
Speaker 1 (28:48):
To this, it's unbelievable.
Speaker 4 (28:51):
No, you are like a like a five year old.
Speaker 7 (28:52):
If if the Lakers ever win, it's always some it's
always for some other reason the league wants it to happen.
Speaker 4 (28:58):
But if the Lakers lose.
Speaker 8 (28:59):
I think.
Speaker 1 (29:03):
Is lified, it is certified.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
They're ridiculous, bonafide that what happened in Game one was ridiculous,
all right, and real basketball. In fact, during your in fact,
during your monologue, shoals should be crucified.
Speaker 4 (29:21):
Look at look at the game. You didn't watch the game.
Speaker 7 (29:26):
The Warriors had more points in the game this game
than the Lakers did.
Speaker 2 (29:29):
My god, Cooper Loop, you are so misguided. It could
there were plenty of fouls when the Warriors were setting screens.
The Lakers are setting screens. You can call fouls every
single possession in the NBA if you want to, You
can call a foul because there's okay.
Speaker 7 (29:43):
So then so they play the games. Why do they
even play the games? Why don't even watch? According to you,
referees jokes, According to this guy, decide every single game.
Speaker 2 (29:56):
If they decide the games, where they're unbalanced with the
calls this game when they let the players decided gold
Stay twenty seven points better than the Lakers.
Speaker 1 (30:04):
They allowed the game to bread.
Speaker 4 (30:06):
That's so dumb.
Speaker 1 (30:07):
It's not dumb at all.
Speaker 4 (30:09):
No, according to you, they should just know. They should
just never call a foul.
Speaker 7 (30:12):
If the Lakers are getting fouled in the paint, they
shouldn't call it.
Speaker 2 (30:16):
Listen, Coople, I know you're dissatisfied with what happened, and
I would be too.
Speaker 4 (30:20):
I don't care. Story, I don't care.
Speaker 1 (30:22):
I said, they sound like someone that cares cool.
Speaker 7 (30:24):
No, I'm just pointing out to the ridiculous you are
that you SI just pointing out how you know.
Speaker 4 (30:30):
Knowing about basketball. That's what I'm joining out by this.
I said, Lakers in five and guess what. In order
for that to happen, they have to lose the game.
So we're still on.
Speaker 2 (30:40):
You are taking away from the marvelous, miraculous.
Speaker 4 (30:44):
Yes, I'm not sure that.
Speaker 2 (30:48):
With Laker propaganda, and nobody wants to hear Laker propaganda.
Speaker 4 (30:51):
Okay, Lakers in five.
Speaker 2 (30:55):
Okay, listen, you're stealing, I said, Warriors, if you're stealing
my material, so you must know the NBA is going
to help the Lakers out.
Speaker 4 (31:02):
With oh yeah, see yeah, and you're setting up your excuse.
Speaker 1 (31:05):
That's what you're doing again. If you if you take
the foul shooting.
Speaker 7 (31:09):
Away, the Warriors foul shooting away, because that's biased to
the Lakers, to the Lakers because the.
Speaker 2 (31:20):
Old bag right now, the n b A has been rigged.
David Stern and the NBA Joe Commissioner rigged it and
they realized they can make a lot of money. And
idiots like you would say, it's not rigged, it's just
it's just good to frustrating when the Lakers get every
freaking call.
Speaker 1 (31:37):
It's a total it's nonsense. It's unbelievable. It's totally just
honest of you to say such things. And what was
wrong with you?
Speaker 8 (31:45):
How dare you the Clippers.
Speaker 1 (31:52):
I was waiting for that volcano from Coop, and I mean.
Speaker 2 (31:54):
