Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello and welcome. It's our name too, our two of
the radio show. And Corey Dylon remember that name. If
you do, you're old. He was a star back in
the late nineties, early two thousands, twenty some years ago.
But Corey Dillon is upset with the Ben Gals Ring
(00:20):
of Honor selection process. He says it's not right the
fans vote. Does he have a point? Also, DeAndre Hopkins
says he'll retire when he's not a thousand yard receiver.
Do you actually believe the free agent whiteout DeAndre Hopkins.
Also in Tampa, defensive back Carlton Davis says post Tom
(00:43):
Brady's Bucks will wreck Blank this season. He used a
bad word, says the NFL is in for a rude awakening.
How concerned should the NFL be with Tampa in twenty
twenty three? We'll talk about that and much more here.
It is our number two, He's our running back. Wel come.
(01:07):
In the beginning of another hour of the Ben Malors Show.
We are in the air everywhere besides one another as
we jab and blab a coast stunt coast, border, the
motor and beyond on the mast and unreasonably powerful microphones
(01:27):
of fsre ammating live from the game, playing the blame
game under the cover of darkness. We are broadcasting live
from the tire rack dot Com studios. Tyre rack dot
com will help you get there in unmatched selection, fast
free shipping, free road hazard protection and over ten thousand
(01:49):
recommended installers. Tyer rack dot com the way tire buying
show me in our lead this hour coming from the
Bengal Roar. Yes, from the NFL, a former running back
is fed up and he can't take stit no more.
(02:10):
With the honors that go out to former NFL players,
now we're talking about Corey Dillon. If you didn't see this,
it is quite the story and it's good talk radio.
He was a big star back in the day's drafted
in the late nineties, played a fair amount of time
in Cincinnati think he was there for seven seasons, played
with the Patriots also, and bounced around the NFL a
(02:30):
little bit after that. But now he snapped. We all
have our breaking point, and Corey Dillon had his breaking point.
And if you didn't see this, and perhaps you actually
don't obsess about the sporting news all this, you would
have missed it. The former Bengal runner Corey Dillon is
so frustrated with the franchise that he is now blowing
(02:54):
the whistle. All right, he is blowing the whistle on this.
He is very upset that he has not been inducted
into the Ring of Honor. Yeah, he said. Quote it's
damn near criminal what the Bengal Ring of Honor voters
are pulling off. To be honest with you, Dylan belly
ach behind a paywall on the Athletic Now. Corey Dillon
(03:16):
is upset with the process or process depending on how
you were raised, that features votes from season ticket holders
and the people that own the suites in Cincinnati that
rent them can vote on who gets into the Ring
of Honor for the Bengals. He said that is garbage
(03:38):
and that the selection should be done directly by the
front office or a special committee.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
Quote.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
This ain't a popularity contest. Garbage, Dylan moaned. This is football.
You are going to put in somebody who is more
popular than somebody who got stats. Dylan pine, He said,
though the Bengals are smart in a sarcastic way. He said.
(04:05):
I added the sarcastic part. He says, I give it
to them. We will put it in the hands of
the season ticket holders so they don't have to take
the backlash over who the voters are picking. That's bull pucky,
that's manure. I gotta clean this up. Should come straight
from the team. Half the assistant ticket holders never saw
(04:27):
us play close quote, So let us discuss now. Dylan
also says he should be in the Pro Football Hall
of Fame. Okay, so let's discuss the question. Though, Corey
Dylon upset with the Bengal Ring of Honor selection process.
Does he have a point. So I've got Bruce Banner,
Brooklyn and building Code, and we'll combine all of these
(04:51):
things together and we are going to make some Skyline chili,
which our friend Andy Furman, who lives in the greater
Cincinnati area loves he works here at Fox Radio and
Justin in Cincinnati says is disgusting. Although he's bitter and upset,
he he's sucking his thumb in the corner there. He's
re upset. Two guys. Don's complaining because he's upset that
(05:13):
I ripped a Twitter. So all right, Corey, Corey Dillon
upset Bengals Ring of Honor selection process? Does he have
a point. So number one, we appreciate the passion that
Corey Dillon has on this topic. I will feel the
same day. Some I will feel the same way someday
if I could talk that. I will feel the same
(05:34):
way someday when Fox Sports Radio has a ring of
honor and I am not elected, but Rich Herrera is elected,
I will be very upset by that. I will be
so annoyed when that happens. Now, well, if he gets in,
forget about it. That will lose all credibility. If they
put Tom Looney in the Fox Sports Radio Ring of honor,
forget about it, okay. And if they you know, if
(05:54):
Bob Golick goes in there, it's oh and Craig Sheman,
you gotta be joke right instead of me? No way, no, wow,
fn way right, come on, now, what are we doing here?
I know, I know it would be shocking. But here's
the problem with the Dylan rant. Get to the point, police,
it's misguided, like getting hot and bothered over a ring
(06:18):
of honor, the vortex of outrage, and it's wild and
it's kind of like a stump speech from a politician.
It's dull. Right. The point he was making is dull,
Corey Dillon turning into Bruce Banner and flipping into the
incredible Hulk with the veins bulging and the spittle flying,
(06:42):
and as the Hulk says, you wouldn't like me when
I'm angry. And where Corey Dillon is wrong is by
ripping the fact that season ticket with holders in Cincinnati
get to vote. I think that's wonderful. On this side
of the microphone, I think that's that's amazing. I didn't
know that happened, no idea. But ultimately, the Ring of
(07:02):
Honor is for the fans. It's a fan thing. It
ain't for the players. It's for the fans.
Speaker 3 (07:08):
Now.
Speaker 1 (07:08):
It's a great honor if you get in there as
a player, but it's for the people that loved the team,
that worship the team like a religion for the great unwashed.
You don't need some blue ribbon panel of people with
all great credentials and all that to put people in
to the Ring of Honor. Let the fans vote. And
here's what you should do. Here's what Corey doing should do.
(07:29):
Rather than have a hissy fit and raise Holy Hell
and huff and puff and blow the whole house down,
may we recommend diplomacy, and I would advise Corey Dillon
to start convesting around and canvassing the landscape there in Ohio,
to go all the way. And it was called polling right,
meet the go out and shake hands, kiss babies and
(07:50):
all that, take photos, sign autographs, campaign for votes, go
to Bengals games and be an ambassador and say hey,
vote for me? What about me? All right now? Page two,
de Andrea Hopkins has popped up on our radar. He
has said recently that he will retire when he is
(08:12):
no longer a thousand yard receiver. Do you believe DeAndre
Hopkins when he says he'll retire if he's no longer
a thousand yard receiver? So I am shaking my head
now now. And my position on this is he's living
in a neighborhood under the Manhattan Bridge in Brooklyn. That neighborhood,
(08:36):
if you ever been to Brooklyn, is called Dumbo. That's
the name of the neighborhood. I'm not making that up.
It's named Dumbo. It's a neighborhood in Brooklyn. Like, what
are we doing on this one? DeAndre Hopkins? Here's the
reason we know he's full of crap. He has failed
to get one thousand yards in the last two seasons combined.
He has less than thirteen hundred yards the last two years.
(08:57):
By the way, why would any receiver, whether it's DeAndre
Hopkins or whoever your favorite receiver is, why would any
receiver use one thousand yards as a measuring stick? A
serious question. Let's do some back of the napkin mat.
If the NFL plays seventeen regular season games, each team
plays seventeen regular season games starting in September and going
(09:18):
to late December early January, seventeen games. If you get
to one thousand yards, that means you are averaging fifty
nine yards per game? Does that make you a breakaway star?
Speaker 4 (09:35):
And in.
Speaker 1 (09:37):
I don't get it, I really don't get it. I'm
asking for a friend. DeAndre Hopkins will retire when he
cannot find work in the NFL. Then he'll retire. Until
then he'll keep going. And right now he's still out
of the NFL. He has the same NFL contract that
you have and I have. He has none. And maybe
the Patriots will give him one day, or the Titans
(09:59):
or whoever, but he had none right now. Fun a point,
So let's move to Tampa. There's someone there that is
named Carlton Davis. You ever heard of that? Guy? Said? No,
He said, defensive back is his His name's Carlton Davis.
I know I never heard of him either, but this
guy was. He was really going for it. He says,
(10:20):
the Buccaneers are going to be amazing without Tom Brady.
Without Tom Brady, Davis won on a soapbox rant recently.
As the team gets ready for training camp, which starts
in less than two weeks, he said, we're about to
do it to him. Davis opined. He says, anybody who
feels we've lost Tom and lost something is going to
(10:43):
be in for a rude awakening. A rude awakening. The
buccaneer defensive back shouted. He says, we still have those components,
and he says he's only getting better. And then he's
predicting the defense in Tampa is going to dominate. He said,
we're going to wreck blank like wreck blank, of course,
(11:07):
not a blank. He said a bad word retracted. I
guess this is what I should say rather than blank.
He said, interceptions, turnovers, plays will be made. I will
say plays will be mate now, Carlton then took a
shot at the Carolina Panthers, New Orleans Saints and the
Atlanta Falcons. He said, our fin division is worse than
(11:28):
what it was before. So we run through the division.
Davis said, we get to the playoffs, We run through
the playoffs, and it's the super Bowl in lost wages, Nevada. Okay,
all right, So Carlton Davis, let's discuss this. One says
the NFL is in for a rude awakening. How concerned
(11:50):
should the rest of the NFL be with Tampa? So
I'll answer this, watch out for the ricochet, right because
it's gonna come right back in your face. Now, the Buccaneers,
I'm looking at this roster, and they violate the building code.
They they're gonna have to deal with code enforcement. This
is not a well built football team. Now they have
a chance to make the playoffs because of the division,
(12:12):
but that doesn't mean they're good. And by the way,
might I point out that Tampa went eight and nine
last season, They had a losing record, and if you
saw their playoff game against the Cowboys, they were so
bad they made Dak Prescott look good. And then when
Dak played a real team the next week, a good team.
(12:34):
DAK was back to playoff DAC and so now the
Buccaneers are gonna roll out Baker Mayfield, who talks the
talk but rarely walks the walk, not since he was
in Norman, Oklahoma. It is a cautionary tale. Now, I
understand that you're supposed to be confident in Carlton Davis,
which he supposed to say We're gonna suck. You can't
really do that, but I will warn you for the
(12:55):
Buccaneers and their dreams of being a good team, you
can get it. The playoffs is a bad team in
the NFL. That's a flaw the NFL has to correct.
They haven't done it yet. But there's a very large woman,
not Lizo, but a fat lady who's starting to warm
up her vocal cords. And the Buccaneers haven't even reported
to training camp yet. Yeah, I'm not exaggerating, No, it
(13:19):
just sounds like I'm exaggerating. It is the Ben Malor Show.

It is pain free and easy to do. Just follow
your host on Twitter. He's at Ben Mallor and you
can tweet at and follow our executive producer. He is
back from Vegas. He is the man who answers the phones,
but he's more than just a call screener. He is

of Poker. Coming up with the final hour of the
show and now live from the Tyrock dot Com Fox
Sports Radio Studios, It's Ben Maller.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
Lean Night, Drug Tester Rights and it says, I'm sure
that Bengo fans would vote in Corey Dillon unless their
standards are players that got the most points in NFL
book him just Josh in Cincinnati. Rights since says I
remember seeing that bomb ass Corey Dillon on a cold
Thursday night in Cincinnati break the rookie rushing record and
(15:39):
then proceed to give us the finger on the rebuild
with Marvin Lewis and Carson Palmer. That guy could kiss
my ass. Who Day?
Speaker 4 (15:49):
Right?
Speaker 1 (15:50):
Who Day?
Speaker 3 (15:50):
They?
Speaker 1 (15:50):
Who Day? Bengals. Yeah, yeah, that's that's a great point.
I should have mentioned that in the monologue. Generally, when
you say screw the team, I want to play somewhere
else else, that does not go over with the fan base.
But what do I know. I just do the Overnight show.
Maybe there are fans that love when the star players
says screw you. I would like to go play somewhere else.
(16:12):
I don't want to play for you anymore. Big mouth,
Big belly says, a valid point that you missed. DeAndre
Hopkins is looking for a contract. Of course he is
going to whisper sweet. Nothing's like a thousand yard seasons
into the Patriots in Titan's years. That's not one thousand
yards is not that good? A thousand yard rusher is
(16:34):
not that good? Is that an outrageous take to say
that that's not impressive. You're a headline player in the
n If you're a good player, you should be over
a thousand yards because they play an extra game now,
and it's come on, Matthew Warrior Raider fan formerly an
A's fan, says Corey Dillon put up decent but not
(16:54):
spectacular numbles. Numbers were awful Bengal teams. The Bengals went
thirty four and seven eight in seven years with Corey
Dillon played there. When he played there and never made
the playoffs, I'm not sure the franchise is eager to
honor anyone from that year. What's the season ticket? People? Yeah?
There you go? All right? Who else do we have?
(17:15):
Page down? Page down? The k C. Car Haller writes
and says, if Mallard gets into the Fox Sports Radio
Ring of Honor before Eddie, all credibility is lost. Will
screw you? Casey car Haller.
Speaker 4 (17:26):
You like us on Facebook, Facebook, dot Com, slash podcast.
Speaker 1 (17:30):
Oh boy, let's go to the phones. We'll say hello
to Paul in Rhode Island. He's got the Shamrock shake
going on right now. Hello, Paul, Hi, Ben Mallen.
Speaker 5 (17:41):
How am I doing two days in a row?
Speaker 3 (17:43):
That's not so bad? Huh.
Speaker 1 (17:44):
That's a lot of Paul and Rhode Island back to
back days. I'm not used to that.
Speaker 5 (17:48):
Paul is not used to that because I worked different chips.
But it's okay, Well.
Speaker 1 (17:53):
You Paul, you're retiring. You told me yesterday and so yeah.
Speaker 5 (17:59):
A couple of months. Yet, yes, you know he's a
word of his man. Yeah, we're gonna well you touch
on Hopkins, but let's let's just say this. I'll say
Britney spears for last. Hopkins has no choice but to
come here because Robert Kraft said he wants a seventh
(18:20):
super Bowl. That's not gonna happen. Can we just get
on first base and just say can we just win
and go to the playoffs? Now, our division is pretty loaded.
Everybody else is loading. Roberto, It's time for you to
cough up what you did in the past because because
(18:47):
you know what's gonna happen on mac Jones is that
he's got Billy O'Brien for insurance. Now mac Jones is
not worth forty million dollars next year, but guess what, Yes,
who's gonna be worth forty million dollars the next two years?
Speaker 3 (19:07):
Me?
Speaker 1 (19:07):
I'm gonna be worth forty million dollars. How about that?
Speaker 5 (19:11):
Well, here's the deal. Two years down the line. You
didn't say, no, I have Robert, and you're gonna have
Belichick going upstairs. Maybe maybe Billy O and Rabel might
come down here, and that's so that's going to be
the change. But Belichick never go away.
Speaker 1 (19:34):
What's going on? What's going on sports? What's what's going
on at the casino?
Speaker 5 (19:40):
Casino? Is this okay casino? You got you're in the
public eye. You know what when Jules Irving came here,
when uh what's his name? Oh my god, quarterbacks that
(20:00):
came here. So they are what I'm saying is they
all got his coorted. Because you can't trust who walks
into a casino. So this thing with Britney Spears, what
I'm getting at is the reaction from a security They
just react differently. You can't you don't have time to judge.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
Okay, the security Britney Spears is an American treasure. How
dare you wait a minute?
Speaker 3 (20:27):
Wait?
Speaker 5 (20:27):
Wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait. What
I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (20:33):
You can't mess with Britney Spears.
Speaker 5 (20:36):
But in the spur of the moment that gentleman black
or white, oh my god, to react as a security racist,
you can't judge. You cannot judge the public when in
a casino, all walks of life walks in a casino
and you're there to protect uh those people.
Speaker 1 (20:59):
That's an a reaction, it's an overreactions.
Speaker 5 (21:03):
You must understand it's a casino, whether you're going.
Speaker 1 (21:07):
I'm aware it happened at a casino. I know. I've
been to casinos. There's cameras everywhere. There's more cameras there
than at.
Speaker 5 (21:15):
The Pentagon cameras fifteen hundred cameras. They can they can
look in your ear if they have to.
Speaker 1 (21:22):
I hope they don't. They should look in my ear
because I have a swimmer's here. My right ear is
all messed up, so maybe they can get some plus
out of my right ear.
Speaker 5 (21:31):
But if a woman approaches approaches you with a glass
with with sunglasses, you don't know who she is, right,
so you automatically security is going to react.
Speaker 1 (21:42):
Okay, so women, those five five, those middle aged blonde
women are very dangerous. I agree with you.
Speaker 5 (21:50):
You don't know the public eye.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
Listen I do. Let me tell you something. I look
at Britney Spears. I'm a little scared. I am. I
get to sir, But if.
Speaker 5 (22:00):
She ben mall respect me. If she has a glass,
sunglasses on and somebody approaches somebody. You don't you don't know.
Speaker 1 (22:09):
What about the British accent? There's where there's a report
she was speaking with a British accent. What about that, Paul,
that's a bigger crime than the glasses.
Speaker 5 (22:17):
Correct, But you must understand if this woman grabs any
person baseball players, football players, anybody that comes and wants
to play cards, all the all the machines, you have
to understand security does not have time to react.
Speaker 1 (22:35):
All right, Well, okay, I want Britney Spears to know
she can tap me on the shoulder anytime she wants
and oops identity. All right, I'm bored. I got them go.
Thank you. Probably too much time. I would argue you
had way too much time.
Speaker 5 (22:51):
A song by White Snaker says, here I go alone.
Speaker 1 (22:56):
Yes, just think when he retires, we're gonna get him.
Every night you'll call in he's got nothing else to do,
I'll call the show. How amazing is that going to be?
My God, it would be so lucky. The ratings will
be through the roof. Yeah, it'll be just stunning.

Speaker 4 (23:49):
Did you see this? I don't think we talked about
this history, but there was a was a wild throw
in the Yankee game that went into the camera. Well
and yeah, a cameraman know they carted him off and uh,
the update is in fractured orbital bone for this guy.
How do you get hit in the face.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
When you're laughing that? The guy had a say, well,
I mean.
Speaker 4 (24:09):
He's you've seen those big cameras that they have.
Speaker 1 (24:11):
Have you seen the clip? The clips all over the internet.
The guy was doing his job. He was behind the
first base bag. He had his head placed looking through
the lens of.
Speaker 4 (24:21):
That's what I'm saying. How do you get hit in
the eye when you because.
Speaker 1 (24:23):
The throw was so bad it threw it hit perfectly
over the camera and hit him right in the top
of the head and the eye, the top of the eye.
Speaker 4 (24:32):
Well, he couldn't hit the first basement, but his placement
was perfect to hit that guy in the face.
Speaker 1 (24:36):
And somewhere Chuck Knoblock saying, see, I'm not the only
guy you see that. Yeah, look at that right there.
Speaker 4 (24:42):
Didn't he didn't not block hit Keith Oberman's mom at
a game one time.
Speaker 1 (24:45):
Was that fous legendary story? Yeah, that was the legendary story.
Was that before Oberman went full whack of doodle?
Speaker 7 (24:51):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (24:52):
Yeah, that was when I worked with him and he
was only partial whack doodle.
Speaker 1 (24:55):
Yeah. I I sat next to ober And at Dodger Stadium.
We talked baseball all the entire night and it had
a very pleasant time. Is nice whatever, And I don't
know he's gone out there, But what happens, It happens,
I guess, not not to me yet, but maybe we
have that to look forward to. It'll happen to everybody.

reconsidering a show? Hey Otani? Trade? Report out of the
tabloids in New York saying even though the Angels all
(25:40):
season have said Otani is not available, Otani is not available,
they have they've changed their position lately. Now Ardi Marino,
the owner, has been against a trade of Otani, not
interested in that. But now the verbiage coming out of
Anaheim is we'll know a little more. Give us two
(26:05):
or three weeks, we'll know a little more. We'll know
a little more in the next two or three weeks,
which lines up to an eleventh hour decision for the Angels,
right down to the trade deadline. Because if you look
at the calendar here and you say, all right, it's
the July seventh, the MLB trade deadlines in the very
(26:25):
early part of August, So two to three weeks would
leave about a week to work out a trade for Otana.
Let's go to our Angel insider, Justin Cooper yay or
nay on the Otani trade.
Speaker 7 (26:39):
Like, what do I want or what do I think
is going to happen?
Speaker 1 (26:43):
Either way?
Speaker 7 (26:43):
Coop, you can't trade him. No, no, true, And my
other angel fan friends will disagree with me on this.
Speaker 1 (26:53):
But yeah, but if you know he's not going to
stay there, well.
Speaker 7 (26:57):
Of course, I mean, I mean, yeah, but you don't know,
and you're not gonna know.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
He's not gonna like what if he's told you I
don't want to play here.
Speaker 7 (27:02):
Then yes, absolutely trade him. But he's not gonna say
that because that's a bad business decision on his part.
Speaker 1 (27:09):
Really might not be bad. Get traded to uh, you know,
the Yankees or the Mets or something like that, and
the Dodgers for the last couple of months of the season.
Speaker 7 (27:18):
Yeah, but no matter what, you're not gonna you're not
gonna like, I don't know. I just don't think you're
gonna get Well, they.
Speaker 1 (27:23):
Should, they're gonna trade him. They should have traded him
last year, but they didn't do that. So now you're
in an awkward spot because everyone's a faux contender in
baseball and there's only like three or four teams that
aren't really in the race to be at least a
wild Guard team.
Speaker 7 (27:38):
I hate baseball.
Speaker 1 (27:40):
That's a good take, Coop, thank you for that. I
appreciate that. Uh, let's go to the phones. We'll say
hello to Andre, who's in the Commonwealth. He does not
hate baseball. Hello, Andre, are you doing Ben?
Speaker 8 (27:53):
Listen, I'm a I'm a big baseball fan. Since you
bring it up, I go to as many K League
Baseball games as I can, even though that's not the
tradition I'm from. I'm from the basketball tradition.
Speaker 3 (28:03):
But with the Cape League, you.
Speaker 8 (28:05):
Know what I mean, we got like a high percentage
of Major League Baseball All Stars.
Speaker 1 (28:09):
The movie Who's the Biggest Player That's come out of
that league recently that you saw.
Speaker 8 (28:16):
Yeah, I'm gonna have to say, Mookie, Uh that's pretty good.
Speaker 1 (28:19):
Rookie bets pretty good.
Speaker 8 (28:20):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, Judge as well. Judge had the Brooke
the home run record. So it's like a who's who
of the stars of tomorrow and baseball. Even though, like
I said, I'm coming from the basketball tradition, and uh,
you know, so the youth basketball circuit right now is
based in South Carolina where the Nike Peach Jam is
going on. And so you saw Lebron is down at
(28:42):
Peach Jam coaching his son, and that's where the who's
who of the stars of tomorrow. And in basketball, you
love that.
Speaker 1 (28:50):
You like that? Aa you action, You're all about that.
Speaker 8 (28:53):
Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah. The grass the grassroots, you aau,
whichever one you want to call. We actually have the
number one freshman in the nation here in the Commonwealth,
gentleman by the name of aj De Bantsa. So that's
we're proud of that. Planning for team expressions. He's actually
gonna transfer out. He's gonna be out in your neck
of the woods at a prolific prep school on the
West coast. But nonetheless his home. He's from the city
(29:15):
of Champions, Ben, that's what we call Brockton, home of
Rocky Marciano and also marvelous Marvin Hagler. So really excited
about that. But again, I know the basketball tradition where
folks are down in South Carolina and some other destinations.
Right now, baseball, I go to the K League games
because I'm a sports fan. Ben, I enjoy it, but
I have no idea who these folks are. Maybe I'll
(29:35):
get an autograph and in sometime it'll be worth some money.
But Ben, I got to conclude you were talking about
mister Wembayama in the situation with Brittain Spears. First of all, Ben,
what the heck is Brittain Spears doing speaking with a
British accent? For why is she running up behind you?
Does he know he's from France? Okay, that's in the
first place. Okay, if you would have used you know what,
if you would have said France, you know what I mean,
(29:55):
Like my name is Andre. You know, if you would
have used a French name, maybe we wouldn't have had
the situation. So Brittany first and foremost, Okay, know who
you're dealing with. I know you know. I like your
old school hits. Oops, I did it again, but you
started off on the wrong foot with the British accent
and that's why you ended up getting boughs in the face. Brittany. Okay,
so learn that lesson and the next time, Brittany.
Speaker 5 (30:14):
You gotta do better.
Speaker 8 (30:15):
Ben, as always, thanks for giving me all.
Speaker 1 (30:17):
Right, there you go. Better. Question is what are the
chances that Victor Weinbanyama even knows who Britney Spears is.
He's nineteen years old.
Speaker 7 (30:26):
That's a little before his time at this point.
Speaker 1 (30:28):
Right, like she's some old woman that used to be
famous for him and he didn't grow up here.
Speaker 7 (30:33):
I just need to parse one thing from Andre from
what I'm taking away from his call.
Speaker 4 (30:37):
The problem was is that Britney presented herself as British.
Speaker 1 (30:42):
Well that's it. Yeah, that's his claim there. Okay. So
if she had come out and said se la vi
or something like that, would that have been better?
Speaker 7 (30:50):
Maybe she did like a German acting spreckens zadoutsche.
Speaker 1 (30:53):
She could have done that. Yeah, let's keep it going
on the phones. We'll say hello to Mark the full
name guy in Medford, Oregon. Hello, Mark the full name guy.
Speaker 3 (31:03):
Ban mallord, So I heard you're dropping a reference to
the fat lady. You know, I think you and the
fat lady have had this ongoing relationship for quite a while. Then, Mallard,
your your trips to the losing locker room. You and
(31:25):
that fat lady really gets things going on, don't you.
Speaker 1 (31:29):
Well you have a do you have a problem with
fat women? I have no problem with fat women.
Speaker 3 (31:35):
I don't have a problem with bat women women too.
I'm not going to say what I was thinking about. Yeah,
that's first fash some body parts that are still quite
functional with Wow.
Speaker 1 (31:53):
Okay, calm down the cowboy.
Speaker 3 (32:00):
Land just a little bit.
Speaker 1 (32:01):
All right, keep your pants on please, yes, okay, thank you?

Bimbo Coles guest by courtesy Flesher, Brad and Montana, going
(34:55):
with Ronald Acuno Jr. Freddy Krueger from Nick in Wisconsin,
who took some out of context video of me throwing axes.
Bad job by him, the Fendley fanatic account obviously a

Dallas comogies.
Speaker 1 (37:05):
Uh No, that's not it. I did say a CJ
from DC at the airport there. He loves Andre and
the Commonwealth calls. But the answer is the ant man,
Anthony Edwards of your Minnesota. Tim It's Mallard. How about that?
Speaker 2 (37:23):
To the third degree? This is one big Ben gets grilled.
Speaker 7 (37:31):
Cornerback Jerry Jacobs believes that the Lions are ready to
shock the world in Week one versus the Chiefs. It's
time to show what Detroit is made of. That is
what Jacob said, Ben. But the Lions shocked the world
by beating the Chiefs in the opener.
Speaker 1 (37:43):
No, it's a one game. It's there are seven point under.
Does I'll Pobb be betting on the Lions plus seven
at Arrowhead? But the Lions the Chiefs are getting their
Super Bowl rings. The Lions will shock the world if
they get to the playoffs and win a couple of
games in the playoffs that would shock the word being
the chiefs of the opener mild surprise.
Speaker 7 (38:00):
Next, Ben, a Nuts manager Dave Martinez was upset with
Cincinnati Reds phenom Ellie de la Cruz for show voting.
His bat was checked and he hit a mammoth dinger.
Martinez says, I didn't like his antics after he hit
the homer. Ben, what do you make of Dave Martinez's gripe?
Speaker 1 (38:17):
All right? So he sounds like Eddie Ebenezer Scrooge here, right,
I mean, what are you doing here? Martinez dabbled in gamesmanship.
I had no problem with I thought it was great.
And you know what, we only need two questions today?
Could we don't need three questions? We only need two?
How did we do?
Speaker 7 (38:33):
I guess that's a pass.
Speaker 1 (38:35):
See I only needed two. I didn't need the third question.
Hello and welcome. It's our name too, our two of
the radio show. And Corey Dylon remember that name. If
you do, you're old. He was a star back in
the late nineties, early two thousands, twenty some years ago.
But Corey Dillon is upset with the Ben Gals Ring
(00:20):
of Honor selection process. He says it's not right the
fans vote. Does he have a point? Also, DeAndre Hopkins
says he'll retire when he's not a thousand yard receiver.
Do you actually believe the free agent whiteout DeAndre Hopkins.
Also in Tampa, defensive back Carlton Davis says post Tom
(00:43):
Brady's Bucks will wreck Blank this season. He used a
bad word, says the NFL is in for a rude awakening.
How concerned should the NFL be with Tampa in twenty
twenty three? We'll talk about that and much more here.
It is our number two, He's our running back. Wel come.
(01:07):
In the beginning of another hour of the Ben Malors Show.
We are in the air everywhere besides one another as
we jab and blab a coast stunt coast, border, the
motor and beyond on the mast and unreasonably powerful microphones
(01:27):
of fsre ammating live from the game, playing the blame
game under the cover of darkness. We are broadcasting live
from the tire rack dot Com studios. Tyre rack dot
com will help you get there in unmatched selection, fast
free shipping, free road hazard protection and over ten thousand
(01:49):
recommended installers. Tyer rack dot com the way tire buying
show me in our lead this hour coming from the
Bengal Roar. Yes, from the NFL, a former running back
is fed up and he can't take stit no more.
(02:10):
With the honors that go out to former NFL players,
now we're talking about Corey Dillon. If you didn't see this,
it is quite the story and it's good talk radio.
He was a big star back in the day's drafted
in the late nineties, played a fair amount of time
in Cincinnati think he was there for seven seasons, played
with the Patriots also, and bounced around the NFL a
(02:30):
little bit after that. But now he snapped. We all
have our breaking point, and Corey Dillon had his breaking point.
And if you didn't see this, and perhaps you actually
don't obsess about the sporting news all this, you would
have missed it. The former Bengal runner Corey Dillon is
so frustrated with the franchise that he is now blowing
(02:54):
the whistle. All right, he is blowing the whistle on this.
He is very upset that he has not been inducted
into the Ring of Honor. Yeah, he said. Quote it's
damn near criminal what the Bengal Ring of Honor voters
are pulling off. To be honest with you, Dylan belly
ach behind a paywall on the Athletic Now. Corey Dillon
(03:16):
is upset with the process or process depending on how
you were raised, that features votes from season ticket holders
and the people that own the suites in Cincinnati that
rent them can vote on who gets into the Ring
of Honor for the Bengals. He said that is garbage
(03:38):
and that the selection should be done directly by the
front office or a special committee.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
Quote.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
This ain't a popularity contest. Garbage, Dylan moaned. This is football.
You are going to put in somebody who is more
popular than somebody who got stats. Dylan pine, He said,
though the Bengals are smart in a sarcastic way. He said.
(04:05):
I added the sarcastic part. He says, I give it
to them. We will put it in the hands of
the season ticket holders so they don't have to take
the backlash over who the voters are picking. That's bull pucky,
that's manure. I gotta clean this up. Should come straight
from the team. Half the assistant ticket holders never saw
(04:27):
us play close quote, So let us discuss now. Dylan
also says he should be in the Pro Football Hall
of Fame. Okay, so let's discuss the question. Though, Corey
Dylon upset with the Bengal Ring of Honor selection process.
Does he have a point. So I've got Bruce Banner,
Brooklyn and building Code, and we'll combine all of these
(04:51):
things together and we are going to make some Skyline chili,
which our friend Andy Furman, who lives in the greater
Cincinnati area loves he works here at Fox Radio and
Justin in Cincinnati says is disgusting. Although he's bitter and upset,
he he's sucking his thumb in the corner there. He's
re upset. Two guys. Don's complaining because he's upset that
(05:13):
I ripped a Twitter. So all right, Corey, Corey Dillon
upset Bengals Ring of Honor selection process? Does he have
a point. So number one, we appreciate the passion that
Corey Dillon has on this topic. I will feel the
same day. Some I will feel the same way someday
if I could talk that. I will feel the same
(05:34):
way someday when Fox Sports Radio has a ring of
honor and I am not elected, but Rich Herrera is elected,
I will be very upset by that. I will be
so annoyed when that happens. Now, well, if he gets in,
forget about it. That will lose all credibility. If they
put Tom Looney in the Fox Sports Radio Ring of honor,
forget about it, okay. And if they you know, if
(05:54):
Bob Golick goes in there, it's oh and Craig Sheman,
you gotta be joke right instead of me? No way, no, wow,
fn way right, come on, now, what are we doing here?
I know, I know it would be shocking. But here's
the problem with the Dylan rant. Get to the point, police,
it's misguided, like getting hot and bothered over a ring
(06:18):
of honor, the vortex of outrage, and it's wild and
it's kind of like a stump speech from a politician.
It's dull. Right. The point he was making is dull,
Corey Dillon turning into Bruce Banner and flipping into the
incredible Hulk with the veins bulging and the spittle flying,
(06:42):
and as the Hulk says, you wouldn't like me when
I'm angry. And where Corey Dillon is wrong is by
ripping the fact that season ticket with holders in Cincinnati
get to vote. I think that's wonderful. On this side
of the microphone, I think that's that's amazing. I didn't
know that happened, no idea. But ultimately, the Ring of
(07:02):
Honor is for the fans. It's a fan thing. It
ain't for the players. It's for the fans.
Speaker 3 (07:08):
Now.
Speaker 1 (07:08):
It's a great honor if you get in there as
a player, but it's for the people that loved the team,
that worship the team like a religion for the great unwashed.
You don't need some blue ribbon panel of people with
all great credentials and all that to put people in
to the Ring of Honor. Let the fans vote. And
here's what you should do. Here's what Corey doing should do.
(07:29):
Rather than have a hissy fit and raise Holy Hell
and huff and puff and blow the whole house down,
may we recommend diplomacy, and I would advise Corey Dillon
to start convesting around and canvassing the landscape there in Ohio,
to go all the way. And it was called polling right,
meet the go out and shake hands, kiss babies and
(07:50):
all that, take photos, sign autographs, campaign for votes, go
to Bengals games and be an ambassador and say hey,
vote for me? What about me? All right now? Page two,
de Andrea Hopkins has popped up on our radar. He
has said recently that he will retire when he is
(08:12):
no longer a thousand yard receiver. Do you believe DeAndre
Hopkins when he says he'll retire if he's no longer
a thousand yard receiver? So I am shaking my head
now now. And my position on this is he's living
in a neighborhood under the Manhattan Bridge in Brooklyn. That neighborhood,
(08:36):
if you ever been to Brooklyn, is called Dumbo. That's
the name of the neighborhood. I'm not making that up.
It's named Dumbo. It's a neighborhood in Brooklyn. Like, what
are we doing on this one? DeAndre Hopkins? Here's the
reason we know he's full of crap. He has failed
to get one thousand yards in the last two seasons combined.
He has less than thirteen hundred yards the last two years.
(08:57):
By the way, why would any receiver, whether it's DeAndre
Hopkins or whoever your favorite receiver is, why would any
receiver use one thousand yards as a measuring stick? A
serious question. Let's do some back of the napkin mat.
If the NFL plays seventeen regular season games, each team
plays seventeen regular season games starting in September and going
(09:18):
to late December early January, seventeen games. If you get
to one thousand yards, that means you are averaging fifty
nine yards per game? Does that make you a breakaway star?
Speaker 4 (09:35):
And in.
Speaker 1 (09:37):
I don't get it, I really don't get it. I'm
asking for a friend. DeAndre Hopkins will retire when he
cannot find work in the NFL. Then he'll retire. Until
then he'll keep going. And right now he's still out
of the NFL. He has the same NFL contract that
you have and I have. He has none. And maybe
the Patriots will give him one day, or the Titans
(09:59):
or whoever, but he had none right now. Fun a point,
So let's move to Tampa. There's someone there that is
named Carlton Davis. You ever heard of that? Guy? Said? No,
He said, defensive back is his His name's Carlton Davis.
I know I never heard of him either, but this
guy was. He was really going for it. He says,
(10:20):
the Buccaneers are going to be amazing without Tom Brady.
Without Tom Brady, Davis won on a soapbox rant recently.
As the team gets ready for training camp, which starts
in less than two weeks, he said, we're about to
do it to him. Davis opined. He says, anybody who
feels we've lost Tom and lost something is going to
(10:43):
be in for a rude awakening. A rude awakening. The
buccaneer defensive back shouted. He says, we still have those components,
and he says he's only getting better. And then he's
predicting the defense in Tampa is going to dominate. He said,
we're going to wreck blank like wreck blank, of course,
(11:07):
not a blank. He said a bad word retracted. I
guess this is what I should say rather than blank.
He said, interceptions, turnovers, plays will be made. I will
say plays will be mate now, Carlton then took a
shot at the Carolina Panthers, New Orleans Saints and the
Atlanta Falcons. He said, our fin division is worse than
(11:28):
what it was before. So we run through the division.
Davis said, we get to the playoffs, We run through
the playoffs, and it's the super Bowl in lost wages, Nevada. Okay,
all right, So Carlton Davis, let's discuss this. One says
the NFL is in for a rude awakening. How concerned
(11:50):
should the rest of the NFL be with Tampa? So
I'll answer this, watch out for the ricochet, right because
it's gonna come right back in your face. Now, the Buccaneers,
I'm looking at this roster, and they violate the building code.
They they're gonna have to deal with code enforcement. This
is not a well built football team. Now they have
a chance to make the playoffs because of the division,
(12:12):
but that doesn't mean they're good. And by the way,
might I point out that Tampa went eight and nine
last season, They had a losing record, and if you
saw their playoff game against the Cowboys, they were so
bad they made Dak Prescott look good. And then when
Dak played a real team the next week, a good team.
(12:34):
DAK was back to playoff DAC and so now the
Buccaneers are gonna roll out Baker Mayfield, who talks the
talk but rarely walks the walk, not since he was
in Norman, Oklahoma. It is a cautionary tale. Now, I
understand that you're supposed to be confident in Carlton Davis,
which he supposed to say We're gonna suck. You can't
really do that, but I will warn you for the
(12:55):
Buccaneers and their dreams of being a good team, you
can get it. The playoffs is a bad team in
the NFL. That's a flaw the NFL has to correct.
They haven't done it yet. But there's a very large woman,
not Lizo, but a fat lady who's starting to warm
up her vocal cords. And the Buccaneers haven't even reported
to training camp yet. Yeah, I'm not exaggerating, No, it
(13:19):
just sounds like I'm exaggerating. It is the Ben Malor Show.

show and now live from the Tyrock dot Com Fox
Sports Radio Studios, It's Ben Maller.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
Lean Night, Drug Tester Rights and it says, I'm sure
that Bengo fans would vote in Corey Dillon unless their
standards are players that got the most points in NFL
book him just Josh in Cincinnati. Rights since says I
remember seeing that bomb ass Corey Dillon on a cold
Thursday night in Cincinnati break the rookie rushing record and
(15:39):
then proceed to give us the finger on the rebuild
with Marvin Lewis and Carson Palmer. That guy could kiss
my ass. Who Day?
Speaker 4 (15:49):
Right?
Speaker 1 (15:50):
Who Day?
Speaker 3 (15:50):
They?
Speaker 1 (15:50):
Who Day? Bengals. Yeah, yeah, that's that's a great point.
I should have mentioned that in the monologue. Generally, when
you say screw the team, I want to play somewhere
else else, that does not go over with the fan base.
But what do I know. I just do the Overnight show.
Maybe there are fans that love when the star players
says screw you. I would like to go play somewhere else.
(16:12):
I don't want to play for you anymore. Big mouth,
Big belly says, a valid point that you missed. DeAndre
Hopkins is looking for a contract. Of course he is
going to whisper sweet. Nothing's like a thousand yard seasons
into the Patriots in Titan's years. That's not one thousand
yards is not that good? A thousand yard rusher is
(16:34):
not that good? Is that an outrageous take to say
that that's not impressive. You're a headline player in the
n If you're a good player, you should be over
a thousand yards because they play an extra game now,
and it's come on, Matthew Warrior Raider fan formerly an
A's fan, says Corey Dillon put up decent but not
(16:54):
spectacular numbles. Numbers were awful Bengal teams. The Bengals went
thirty four and seven eight in seven years with Corey
Dillon played there. When he played there and never made
the playoffs, I'm not sure the franchise is eager to
honor anyone from that year. What's the season ticket? People? Yeah?
There you go? All right? Who else do we have?
(17:15):
Page down? Page down? The k C. Car Haller writes

Speaker 1 (17:30):
Oh boy, let's go to the phones. We'll say hello
to Paul in Rhode Island. He's got the Shamrock shake
going on right now. Hello, Paul, Hi, Ben Mallen.
Speaker 5 (17:41):
How am I doing two days in a row?
Speaker 3 (17:43):
That's not so bad? Huh.
Speaker 1 (17:44):
That's a lot of Paul and Rhode Island back to
back days. I'm not used to that.
Speaker 5 (17:48):
Paul is not used to that because I worked different chips.
But it's okay, Well.
Speaker 1 (17:53):
You Paul, you're retiring. You told me yesterday and so yeah.
Speaker 5 (17:59):
A couple of months. Yet, yes, you know he's a
word of his man. Yeah, we're gonna well you touch
on Hopkins, but let's let's just say this. I'll say
Britney spears for last. Hopkins has no choice but to
come here because Robert Kraft said he wants a seventh
(18:20):
super Bowl. That's not gonna happen. Can we just get
on first base and just say can we just win
and go to the playoffs? Now, our division is pretty loaded.
Everybody else is loading. Roberto, It's time for you to
cough up what you did in the past because because
(18:47):
you know what's gonna happen on mac Jones is that
he's got Billy O'Brien for insurance. Now mac Jones is
not worth forty million dollars next year, but guess what, Yes,
who's gonna be worth forty million dollars the next two years?
Speaker 3 (19:07):
Me?
Speaker 1 (19:07):
I'm gonna be worth forty million dollars. How about that?
Speaker 5 (19:11):
Well, here's the deal. Two years down the line. You
didn't say, no, I have Robert, and you're gonna have
Belichick going upstairs. Maybe maybe Billy O and Rabel might
come down here, and that's so that's going to be
the change. But Belichick never go away.
Speaker 1 (19:34):
What's going on? What's going on sports? What's what's going
on at the casino?
Speaker 5 (19:40):
Casino? Is this okay casino? You got you're in the
public eye. You know what when Jules Irving came here,
when uh what's his name? Oh my god, quarterbacks that
(20:00):
came here. So they are what I'm saying is they
all got his coorted. Because you can't trust who walks
into a casino. So this thing with Britney Spears, what
I'm getting at is the reaction from a security They
just react differently. You can't you don't have time to judge.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
Okay, the security Britney Spears is an American treasure. How
dare you wait a minute?
Speaker 3 (20:27):
Wait?
Speaker 5 (20:27):
Wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait. What
I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (20:33):
You can't mess with Britney Spears.
Speaker 5 (20:36):
But in the spur of the moment that gentleman black
or white, oh my god, to react as a security racist,
you can't judge. You cannot judge the public when in
a casino, all walks of life walks in a casino
and you're there to protect uh those people.
Speaker 1 (20:59):
That's an a reaction, it's an overreactions.
Speaker 5 (21:03):
You must understand it's a casino, whether you're going.
Speaker 1 (21:07):
I'm aware it happened at a casino. I know. I've
been to casinos. There's cameras everywhere. There's more cameras there
than at.
Speaker 5 (21:15):
The Pentagon cameras fifteen hundred cameras. They can they can
look in your ear if they have to.
Speaker 1 (21:22):
I hope they don't. They should look in my ear
because I have a swimmer's here. My right ear is
all messed up, so maybe they can get some plus
out of my right ear.
Speaker 5 (21:31):
But if a woman approaches approaches you with a glass
with with sunglasses, you don't know who she is, right,
so you automatically security is going to react.
Speaker 1 (21:42):
Okay, so women, those five five, those middle aged blonde
women are very dangerous. I agree with you.
Speaker 5 (21:50):
You don't know the public eye.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
Listen I do. Let me tell you something. I look
at Britney Spears. I'm a little scared. I am. I
get to sir, But if.
Speaker 5 (22:00):
She ben mall respect me. If she has a glass,
sunglasses on and somebody approaches somebody. You don't you don't know.
Speaker 1 (22:09):
What about the British accent? There's where there's a report
she was speaking with a British accent. What about that, Paul,
that's a bigger crime than the glasses.
Speaker 5 (22:17):
Correct, But you must understand if this woman grabs any
person baseball players, football players, anybody that comes and wants
to play cards, all the all the machines, you have
to understand security does not have time to react.
Speaker 1 (22:35):
All right, Well, okay, I want Britney Spears to know
she can tap me on the shoulder anytime she wants
and oops identity. All right, I'm bored. I got them go.
Thank you. Probably too much time. I would argue you
had way too much time.
Speaker 5 (22:51):
A song by White Snaker says, here I go alone.
Speaker 1 (22:56):
Yes, just think when he retires, we're gonna get him.
Every night you'll call in he's got nothing else to do,
I'll call the show. How amazing is that going to be?
My God, it would be so lucky. The ratings will
be through the roof. Yeah, it'll be just stunning.

Hey, I'm Doug Gottlieb. The podcast is called All Ball.

Speaker 4 (23:49):
Did you see this? I don't think we talked about
this history, but there was a was a wild throw
in the Yankee game that went into the camera. Well
and yeah, a cameraman know they carted him off and uh,
the update is in fractured orbital bone for this guy.
How do you get hit in the face.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
When you're laughing that? The guy had a say, well,
I mean.
Speaker 4 (24:09):
He's you've seen those big cameras that they have.
Speaker 1 (24:11):
Have you seen the clip? The clips all over the internet.
The guy was doing his job. He was behind the
first base bag. He had his head placed looking through
the lens of.
Speaker 4 (24:21):
That's what I'm saying. How do you get hit in
the eye when you because.
Speaker 1 (24:23):
The throw was so bad it threw it hit perfectly
over the camera and hit him right in the top
of the head and the eye, the top of the eye.
Speaker 4 (24:32):
Well, he couldn't hit the first basement, but his placement
was perfect to hit that guy in the face.
Speaker 1 (24:36):
And somewhere Chuck Knoblock saying, see, I'm not the only
guy you see that. Yeah, look at that right there.
Speaker 4 (24:42):
Didn't he didn't not block hit Keith Oberman's mom at
a game one time.
Speaker 1 (24:45):
Was that fous legendary story? Yeah, that was the legendary story.
Was that before Oberman went full whack of doodle?
Speaker 7 (24:51):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (24:52):
Yeah, that was when I worked with him and he
was only partial whack doodle.
Speaker 1 (24:55):
Yeah. I I sat next to ober And at Dodger Stadium.
We talked baseball all the entire night and it had
a very pleasant time. Is nice whatever, And I don't
know he's gone out there, But what happens, It happens,
I guess, not not to me yet, but maybe we
have that to look forward to. It'll happen to everybody.
It is the Ben Mallor Show. As we continue on,

reconsidering a show? Hey Otani? Trade? Report out of the
tabloids in New York saying even though the Angels all
(25:40):
season have said Otani is not available, Otani is not available,
they have they've changed their position lately. Now Ardi Marino,
the owner, has been against a trade of Otani, not
interested in that. But now the verbiage coming out of
Anaheim is we'll know a little more. Give us two
(26:05):
or three weeks, we'll know a little more. We'll know
a little more in the next two or three weeks,
which lines up to an eleventh hour decision for the Angels,
right down to the trade deadline. Because if you look
at the calendar here and you say, all right, it's
the July seventh, the MLB trade deadlines in the very
(26:25):
early part of August, So two to three weeks would
leave about a week to work out a trade for Otana.
Let's go to our Angel insider, Justin Cooper yay or
nay on the Otani trade.
Speaker 7 (26:39):
Like, what do I want or what do I think
is going to happen?
Speaker 1 (26:43):
Either way?
Speaker 7 (26:43):
Coop, you can't trade him. No, no, true, And my
other angel fan friends will disagree with me on this.
Speaker 1 (26:53):
But yeah, but if you know he's not going to
stay there, well.
Speaker 7 (26:57):
Of course, I mean, I mean, yeah, but you don't know,
and you're not gonna know.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
He's not gonna like what if he's told you I
don't want to play here.
Speaker 7 (27:02):
Then yes, absolutely trade him. But he's not gonna say
that because that's a bad business decision on his part.
Speaker 1 (27:09):
Really might not be bad. Get traded to uh, you know,
the Yankees or the Mets or something like that, and
the Dodgers for the last couple of months of the season.
Speaker 7 (27:18):
Yeah, but no matter what, you're not gonna you're not
gonna like, I don't know. I just don't think you're
gonna get Well, they.
Speaker 1 (27:23):
Should, they're gonna trade him. They should have traded him
last year, but they didn't do that. So now you're
in an awkward spot because everyone's a faux contender in
baseball and there's only like three or four teams that
aren't really in the race to be at least a
wild Guard team.
Speaker 7 (27:38):
I hate baseball.
Speaker 1 (27:40):
That's a good take, Coop, thank you for that. I
appreciate that. Uh, let's go to the phones. We'll say
hello to Andre, who's in the Commonwealth. He does not
hate baseball. Hello, Andre, are you doing Ben?
Speaker 8 (27:53):
Listen, I'm a I'm a big baseball fan. Since you
bring it up, I go to as many K League
Baseball games as I can, even though that's not the
tradition I'm from. I'm from the basketball tradition.
Speaker 3 (28:03):
But with the Cape League, you.
Speaker 8 (28:05):
Know what I mean, we got like a high percentage
of Major League Baseball All Stars.
Speaker 1 (28:09):
The movie Who's the Biggest Player That's come out of
that league recently that you saw.
Speaker 8 (28:16):
Yeah, I'm gonna have to say, Mookie, Uh that's pretty good.
Speaker 1 (28:19):
Rookie bets pretty good.
Speaker 8 (28:20):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, Judge as well. Judge had the Brooke
the home run record. So it's like a who's who
of the stars of tomorrow and baseball. Even though, like
I said, I'm coming from the basketball tradition, and uh,
you know, so the youth basketball circuit right now is
based in South Carolina where the Nike Peach Jam is
going on. And so you saw Lebron is down at
(28:42):
Peach Jam coaching his son, and that's where the who's
who of the stars of tomorrow. And in basketball, you
love that.
Speaker 1 (28:50):
You like that? Aa you action, You're all about that.
Speaker 8 (28:53):
Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah. The grass the grassroots, you aau,
whichever one you want to call. We actually have the
number one freshman in the nation here in the Commonwealth,
gentleman by the name of aj De Bantsa. So that's
we're proud of that. Planning for team expressions. He's actually
gonna transfer out. He's gonna be out in your neck
of the woods at a prolific prep school on the
West coast. But nonetheless his home. He's from the city
(29:15):
of Champions, Ben, that's what we call Brockton, home of
Rocky Marciano and also marvelous Marvin Hagler. So really excited
about that. But again, I know the basketball tradition where
folks are down in South Carolina and some other destinations.
Right now, baseball, I go to the K League games
because I'm a sports fan. Ben, I enjoy it, but
I have no idea who these folks are. Maybe I'll
(29:35):
get an autograph and in sometime it'll be worth some money.
But Ben, I got to conclude you were talking about
mister Wembayama in the situation with Brittain Spears. First of all, Ben,
what the heck is Brittain Spears doing speaking with a
British accent? For why is she running up behind you?
Does he know he's from France? Okay, that's in the
first place. Okay, if you would have used you know what,
if you would have said France, you know what I mean,
(29:55):
Like my name is Andre. You know, if you would
have used a French name, maybe we wouldn't have had
the situation. So Brittany first and foremost, Okay, know who
you're dealing with. I know you know. I like your
old school hits. Oops, I did it again, but you
started off on the wrong foot with the British accent
and that's why you ended up getting boughs in the face. Brittany. Okay,
so learn that lesson and the next time, Brittany.
Speaker 5 (30:14):
You gotta do better.
Speaker 8 (30:15):
Ben, as always, thanks for giving me all.
Speaker 1 (30:17):
Right, there you go. Better. Question is what are the
chances that Victor Weinbanyama even knows who Britney Spears is.
He's nineteen years old.
Speaker 7 (30:26):
That's a little before his time at this point.
Speaker 1 (30:28):
Right, like she's some old woman that used to be
famous for him and he didn't grow up here.
Speaker 7 (30:33):
I just need to parse one thing from Andre from
what I'm taking away from his call.
Speaker 4 (30:37):
The problem was is that Britney presented herself as British.
Speaker 1 (30:42):
Well that's it. Yeah, that's his claim there. Okay. So
if she had come out and said se la vi
or something like that, would that have been better?
Speaker 7 (30:50):
Maybe she did like a German acting spreckens zadoutsche.
Speaker 1 (30:53):
She could have done that. Yeah, let's keep it going
on the phones. We'll say hello to Mark the full
name guy in Medford, Oregon. Hello, Mark the full name guy.
Speaker 3 (31:03):
Ban mallord, So I heard you're dropping a reference to
the fat lady. You know, I think you and the
fat lady have had this ongoing relationship for quite a while. Then, Mallard,
your your trips to the losing locker room. You and
(31:25):
that fat lady really gets things going on, don't you.
Speaker 1 (31:29):
Well you have a do you have a problem with
fat women? I have no problem with fat women.
Speaker 3 (31:35):
I don't have a problem with bat women women too.
I'm not going to say what I was thinking about. Yeah,
that's first fash some body parts that are still quite
functional with Wow.
Speaker 1 (31:53):
Okay, calm down the cowboy.
Speaker 3 (32:00):

what Jacob said, Ben. But the Lions shocked the world
by beating the Chiefs in the opener.
Speaker 1 (37:43):
No, it's a one game. It's there are seven point under.
Does I'll Pobb be betting on the Lions plus seven
at Arrowhead? But the Lions the Chiefs are getting their

the homer. Ben, what do you make of Dave Martinez's gripe?
