Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello and welcome.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
It's our num Bird two and we begin our two
with a reality TV show theme. How concerned should Bengal
backers be?
Speaker 1 (00:15):
With Joe Burrow said to be.
Speaker 2 (00:18):
Signed up to do a quarterback documentary show? Is he
going to be lost in the sauce? Our rock Parties
training camp interception something or nothing for the forty nine ers?
And what did you make of the viral video of
to a Tongue of Iloa and the Miami Dolphins play call.
(00:39):
We'll discuss all of these things and a whole lot more.
And you're writing shotgun with us here in our number
two here it.
Speaker 1 (00:48):
Is ready for the boob tube.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
Well gome in the beginning of another hour of the show.
We are in the air everywhere, blathering as we are
a cardboard cutout unless we're not coast to coast, border
the border and beyond on the mast and stratipherically powerful

(01:41):
the way tire buying, shoot me and our lead this
hour coming from a mix of reality television and the
sporting world. Combining these two things, ergo the critically acclaimed
Quarterback documentary TV series on Netflix.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
Check that out or not.
Speaker 2 (02:04):
But if you didn't see the show, apparently many people did,
and those.
Speaker 1 (02:08):
That did see it liked it. That's what we're hearing. Anyway.
Speaker 2 (02:11):
It featured behind the scenes in the life, what it's like,
how do you make the hot dogs for Patrick Mahomes,
Kirk Cousins, and Marcus Mariota. So the formula you have
a headliner Mahomes, you have a middle of the road
quarterback Cousins, and you have a stiff Marcus Mariota. So
(02:34):
that was the formula. So I like to repeat that formula.
There's been a lot of debate over who is going
to be showcased in season two because the show did well,
so they're going to bring back the show. So who's
going to be on in season number two?
Speaker 1 (02:48):
Now?
Speaker 2 (02:48):
Publicly a number a number of quarterbacks have rejected the show,
including Joe Burrow. He said, no, Jalen Hurts, are you
kidding me?
Speaker 1 (03:00):
Come on?
Speaker 2 (03:00):
Trevor Lawrence. I don't think so, Dakota Prescott, come on, well,
we have a change here. If you've not heard the latest,
maybe not. We're now hearing that one of the quarterbacks
who said no has had a change of heart, Joe Burrow.
(03:21):
Joe Burrow now planning, not official, but planning on taking
part in the season long behind the scenes documentary that
according to Peter King and others who are reporting that
Joe Burrow is on board, Burrow had said he would
like to do it at some point, he just didn't
want to do it this year. Well apparently that is
(03:41):
that is not the position he has at this point.
This says, of course, led to what what do you
think has happened? So this is bouncing around that Burrow
has decided he wants to do the show.
Speaker 3 (03:51):
So of course the pearl clutching, the grabbing of the
pearls and holding them tight, trying to get blood out
of them has happened, and they're concern.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
There is concern among Cincinnati backers that their signal caller
is making a horrible decision and this will have a
negative impact on the Cincinnati football team. So let us
discuss the question how concerned should ben Gal fans be
(04:23):
with Joe Burrow doing this quarterback documentary? So I have
County Fair, Saint Joseph, and Rosetta Stone, and we will
put all of these things together and we are going
to make twinkies, is what we're going to make.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
I haven't had one a long time? Why not? So
n Burrow one.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
Yeah, we give this Joe Burrows story that there's people
upset there, they have little heartburn because Joe Burrow is
considering doing this TV show.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
We give this side eye right, like, what are we
doing it?
Speaker 2 (05:01):
It's a stupid show. It's produced by the NFL. It's
not a hit piece. It's not a hatchet job. On
the Malard scale of concern time tested Malard scale of
concern for Joe Burrow one to ten, with ten being
your quarterback has a broken leg before the Super Bowl.
We are going to give that story a two on
(05:22):
the Malard scale of concern. Here's why you think they're
gonna come out there and show Joe Burrow enjoying hookers
and cocaine on the first episode of the new season
of The Quarterback Show.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
I methinks not so much. Right.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
This documentary is a trip to the County Fair. It's cotton, candy,
light and fluffy sugar.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
That's what it is.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
And by the way, that's what it's supposed to be.
It's produced by the NFL people. That's how it's supposed
to work. Patrick Mahomes did not seem to be handicapped
by the documentary last I checked.
Speaker 1 (05:56):
And maybe I'm wrong on this. What do I know?
Speaker 2 (05:59):
But I think unless somehow I dreamt it, the Chiefs
won another Super Bowl with Mahomes. This story is a
microcosm of these psychonic people looking for trivial things to
be worried about.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
In the big picture, what do you do? You're living
a great life.
Speaker 2 (06:19):
You're worried about a guy going on a TV show
that's going to affect your football team. Now, secondly, let's
move on to San Francisco. Second consecutive day that we
have been sucked into the headline about a quarterback who
has been throwing the ball with generosity to the other
team and the beacon.
Speaker 1 (06:40):
Of light not shining on brock party. Say what? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (06:44):
People losing their mind about this too. If you didn't
see it, maybe you missed it.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
We're told that.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
Brock Purty is thrown not one, not two, not three,
not four, not five, not six.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
Naz he has thrown ten interceptions ten in four ni
training camp. Oh my god, Holy Connoy.
Speaker 2 (07:04):
Yeah, I had two more on Wednesdays Niners practice, and
there was another one that was supposedly dropped according to
the forty nine er Beat writers.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
Which I love.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
I love that the Football Beat writers are documenting every
training camp throw. Man is that entertaining content? That's the
content I need. I don't know about you, but man,
is that fun content.
Speaker 1 (07:24):
So this has of.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
Course led the reporting on brock Purty falling apart here
has led to cynics who are saying that Purdy is
being exposed, that he's lyn Sanity, he's the Newlynsanity's Remember
Jeremy Lynn if you're old, Ugh, remember Jeremy Lynn, lotle
guard for the Knickerbockers, who was not supposed to be
anything and turned out.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
To be great.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
I'll never forget the coach Mike D'Antoni was coaching the
Knicks at the time, and they next came in. They
just picked up Jeremy Lynn. He had not started Lin Sanity.
They're playing the Lakers. It was a Sunday night game
Nixon Lakers and one of the beat writers for the Knicks.
After this scrum, the media scrim had edited ask Mike
(08:09):
D'Antoni said, what do you think of this guy Lynn?
And he pretty much D'Antoni said, listen, he's just roster filler.
He's not gonna you know, we don't expect any of
him to do anything. And he then lit the world
on fire for a couple of months. But anyway, the
point is nobody knows anything but our Brock Parties, training
camp interceptions, our Brock Parties training camp interceptions, something or nothing.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
So I have this in the nothing category.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
As a great philosopher of years gone by said, we
ain't here talking about practice, not a game, not a game.
We in here talking about practice. Practice is about experimentation.
The fact that the stats from training camp are being
dragged down, being reported on in a meaningful way is
(08:58):
fascinating to me. It is It's like judging a baseball
player on how many Cactus League dingers they hit and
then deciding they're going to lead the American League in
home runs because they had a bunch of home runs
in Tempee or you know, your favorite outpost in the
valley of the set. It's meaningless dribble. Now, what is
(09:18):
my evidence? I'm talking about this yesterday with Jimmy Garoppolo.
But I'll bring up a great example, my favorite example
of the absurdity of training camp interception reporting. We take
you to Saint Joseph as in Saint Joseph, Missouri, the
site of the twenty eighteen Kansas City Chiefs training camp,
(09:41):
where there was a false alarm that was sent. Text
messages went out incoming warheads go down, go down for
cover the headline and it's still on the internet.
Speaker 1 (09:55):
You can google it.
Speaker 2 (09:57):
Patrick Mahomes had seven inner in his first six practices.
Oh m J Yeah, that was the the headline. Now,
Mahomes was a first year starter at that time. Things
worked out pretty.
Speaker 1 (10:17):
Big good because who cares if you puke.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
Out your guts in practice as long as you don't
hit rock bottom when the game start.
Speaker 1 (10:30):
Final point.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
So let's go to Miami, Miami, Miami, Miami. The Dolphins quarterback,
to a tongue of by law, tempted a little flex here,
was trying to brag about the degree of difficulty and
Mike McDaniel's offense there in Miami to a. He had
a little interaction with reporters. He gave the media an
opportunity to hear a play. He was gonna give a
(10:52):
play like he does in the huddle, and then he
was going to give them the chance to repeat it.
And rather than me just go through the whole thing,
let's go to the audio. Hey, listen to Tua here
as he recites one of the Dolphins plays.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
Listen, give you.
Speaker 4 (11:06):
Guys a play, and then if you guys want to
repeat it after me, as if you guys are in
the hudder, you guys can all right, Okay, should I
go once or twice saying it?
Speaker 1 (11:15):
Yeah? Just do it once? All right?
Speaker 4 (11:16):
We got north right clamp south Fox h top past
thirty eight top gunny xp sweat Let's go anyone sounds yes,
it sounds like a pre snap penalty to me, Oh
my gosh.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
Oh man, alright, alright, so he said, north right clamp,
south Fox h Top past thirty eight top.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
Gumby something something sweat.
Speaker 2 (11:43):
All right, So listen, what did you make of that
little That thing went viral? That thing went viral. So
it's obviously a strike a pose, a strike a pose situation.
Mike McDaniel clearly does not follow the Navy's kiss method.
Speaker 1 (11:58):
Keep it simple, stupid.
Speaker 2 (12:00):
And I've always thought that it's gonna keep get dumb
it down a little bit. You don't have to throw
in the big words and mix all that stuff together.
It's a lot of gibberish, but it's also not that
impressive because it's like anything. I'm fascinated by by magic. Right,
I know it's not real, but I'm fascinated by magic.
(12:21):
But I remember hearing a magician talk about how they're
so amazing at these illusions, and it's like they practice
all day every day to do a card trick. And
if you're a quarterback in the NFL, you specialize. That's
your secret ingredient specialization. You spend hours and hours, eight
(12:42):
hours a day, give or take ten thousand hours. You're
way past ten thousand hours by time.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
You get to the NFL.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
And so you're studying the Rosetta Stone of football and
you end up mastering the language and you get paid
a lot of money for it.
Speaker 1 (13:01):
That's what's supposed to happen, and it's.
Speaker 2 (13:03):
So great and everyone's got their own individual skill. I
have no skill other than just being verbose.
Speaker 1 (13:13):
That's it. I have no sale. I have nothing I
can sell.
Speaker 2 (13:18):
Like I'm always impressed by people that can fix crap
because to me, that's something you can always people are always
gonna need somebody to fix something, or you know, do
outdoor work guarding things like that. Well you actually do
physical labor, you know, triving a truck. That's a skill, right,
Not everyone can do it. You gotta get a special license.
You got to dedicate your life. You're on the road
a lot, you know, it's a pain in the ass.
Speaker 5 (13:39):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (13:39):
So everyone's got their own skill, but the key is
you master. So it's like all these media guys are
like all like, oh my god, their tongues are wagging.
They're like, I can't believe to it knows that he
said gumby.
Speaker 1 (13:50):
H Top South Fox, all.
Speaker 2 (13:52):
That nonsense, and uh, it's like, okay, anyway, it is

Straight ahead, a starting quarterback, one of the highest paid
players in pro football, snapped at a reporter very upset
(14:38):
with something. A reporter said to him, who is the quarterback?
What was said? We'll get to that. We'll take your
calls and we will do it next. I don't know
what kind of ben foolery is going on.
Speaker 6 (14:51):

Just follow your host on Twitter. He's at Ben Mallor
and you can tweet at and follow our executive producer.
(15:21):
He is manning the phones, but he is more than
just the call screener. He's the liar, liar and the
menace of the Fox Sports Radio network. It's the coop,
the loop Justin Cooper and he's at u H Bronco fan.
Speaker 8 (15:34):
K Cobu komoting.
Speaker 7 (15:38):
A Bronco fan NLI from the tyrac dot com Fox
Sports Radio Studios. It's Ben Mallor.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
I missed that guy, the drop guy. He called it
a lot of these guys call for a little while.
He disappear. You know, he called back. I mean he moved.
He moved to Florida, I remember correctly, and then his
life changed a little bit. He stopped calling it show.
Speaker 6 (16:00):
But that's Cobu commoting.
Speaker 1 (16:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (16:05):
And if you're new to the show, or you haven't
been listening and you or maybe you forgot that guy.
He's the guy that called up and got very upset
with me. He was angry because I did a commercial
on the ad copy said bouncy or it was it
was a bouncy ball or something like that, and he
(16:26):
got upset. And so anyway we bounce here, bouncey or
bounce here. That's what he got upset with the bounce here.
And so from that point forward, almost all the time
I mentioned in the NBA as a tribute to that guy,
I see a pro bouncy ball as a tribute just
to because it kind of annoyed him. So that was
my that was my move, I know, very exciting. Anyway,
(16:49):
we'll take some calls. We began this hour ranting about
Joe Burrow not official official, but Peter King indicating that
Joe Burrow is gonna do that quarterback show, so he
will be the headliner. Who's the mediocre quarterback? Would that
be like Derek Carr? And then who's the bad quarterback?
Who would that be?
Speaker 1 (17:07):
Sam Darnell something like that. Yeah, I don't know. Mayor
Parker the snow.
Speaker 2 (17:12):
Dog says, Uh.
Speaker 1 (17:15):
It's Dion Sanders' son.
Speaker 2 (17:18):
Is the answer you or you're already answering the question
we haven't even given yet.
Speaker 1 (17:22):
Uh interesting.
Speaker 2 (17:23):
Art Puffin says a plus on the Mally Monologue for
mentioning my Miami Dolphins, d minus for hating on the
next AFC East Champs head coach Mike mcdange. No, I
have nothing against Mike McDaniel. He's a good SoundBite. I'm
in the sound by business. He's a good sound bite.
So I'm I'm all for that. I'm all for it. Milkman,
Mike and Colorado says an exclusive extensive, rather extensive investigation
(17:46):
of the Maui Fire has concluded that it was caused
by a fiery crash by an idiot going down a
hill by.
Speaker 1 (17:54):
The name of Trash. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (17:57):
I don't know that guy was named Maui though, And
you know what happened. He just stopped calling. He teased
us for a couple of months, and then and then.
Speaker 1 (18:04):
That was it. It was all over.
Speaker 2 (18:07):
Oh, I see Parker the snow Dog now representing Arizona State.
I did not know park of the snow Dog was
an Arizona State alumni.
Speaker 7 (18:14):
You know who's gonna be upset about that? Who's that
coach Prime?
Speaker 1 (18:18):
Oh?
Speaker 7 (18:19):
Yeah, you gotta get a Park of the snow Dog
and some buff skiar.
Speaker 2 (18:23):
I could totally see Dion Sanders saying, you know what,
we've got those buffalo Why don't we put Park of
the snow Dog behind the buffalo on that little cart
thing and then we can make magic.
Speaker 7 (18:34):
Right.
Speaker 2 (18:34):
No, wouldn't that be great? Be amazing, combine the worlds
of the legend. And with all due respect to Deon Sanders,
the guy's a big deal. But in Colorado, Park of
the Snow Dog gets much more play on local news,
the TV news.
Speaker 1 (18:50):
They love Park of the snow Dog.
Speaker 7 (18:52):
Did you see any of the videos of the Parker
Palooza of the past, there I have not. He's flying
in on a helicopters, people waiting for him. Unbelievable.
Speaker 2 (19:01):
He's like the mayor of a small town in Colorado.
That's a freaking mayor and he listens to this show.
We got to get Parker back in studio. Now we're
in the new studio across the building.
Speaker 1 (19:11):
We got to get Parker.
Speaker 2 (19:12):
Back in the Park of the snow Dog. And and friend,
the keeper of Parker the snow Dog, has to has
to make the true I don't think Parker will walk
here on its own.
Speaker 1 (19:21):
I don't think that will happen. Let's go to the phones.
Speaker 2 (19:24):
It is a call in show, and let's say hello
to blind Emmett, the Seahawks fan.
Speaker 1 (19:29):
Hello, blind Emmett.
Speaker 8 (19:31):
Hello Big Ben. Have you been taking some garlic lately?
Speaker 1 (19:35):
All week? My man? All week, I've been sucking raw garlic.
It's wonderful.
Speaker 8 (19:41):
Have you had to do it during the commercial breaks yet?
Speaker 1 (19:44):
No, it hasn't gotten that bad.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
And fortunately I think I nipped it right before it
got really bad, So I think I'm all right. I
think I'm past the big problem part of it.
Speaker 8 (19:55):
So, yeah, it's so weirdo in Maine that gave it
to you clearly.
Speaker 2 (20:00):
Yeah, somebody in the north, maybe New Hampshire, I don't know,
possibly Rhode Island people there. Yeah, maybe you know, my
wife made me go to this this breakfast place in
paw Tucket because she saw she said, had good reviews
on Yelp.
Speaker 1 (20:14):
It was terrible, by the way, but I might have
gotten it there.
Speaker 2 (20:17):
That might have been. Where and where have you been?
By the way, where where have you been? Blind in
at the Seahawks fan We have not heard from you
in some time here.
Speaker 8 (20:25):
I've been doing a lot of things, you know. I
was in Oregon for a couple of weeks seeing family,
so it was right after my birthday and then, oh,
I've been doing a lot. Yeah, thank you. In July
I was doing a lot of swimming too. You know,
it's ninety seven, Ben, and I know, you know, weather
with Roberto was a thing. We still worked on the show.
It's like it was one hundred degrees yesterday, like ninety
seven today. And I don't know, I don't know if
(20:48):
anybody knows, but nobody in western Washington has ac So
like when you guys, when it's one hundred, for you,
it's nothing, but for us it's forged. It's super hot.
Speaker 1 (20:58):
It's a dry heath. Though as long as as long
as is not human, it's okay.
Speaker 5 (21:02):
But talk about.
Speaker 8 (21:05):
This whole quarterback thing, and you're talking about brock Perdy
throwing ten interceptions in training camp, and you beat me
to it that this whole false alarm with Patrick Mahomes
because I remember, and I probably wouldn't a minitt this
on national radio, but here we go. I mean, and
my friends were like, oh, he's throwing cheven interceptions and practice,
you know, he's trash, and oh look at him now
with the best quarterback in the NFL. So like, do
(21:27):
I think that's the case for every quarterback?
Speaker 1 (21:28):
Of course not.
Speaker 8 (21:29):
You know, like there's a lot of busts out there
that you got. You got guys like Peterman, you know,
I mean, it's just what it is.
Speaker 2 (21:35):
But Peter Peterman must be a great quarterback in camp,
in practice. He's got to be an All Star, an
All American. Was watching the Bears exhibition game. I was
stuck on a plane. He was playing for the Bears.
In the second half of their exhibition game against Carolina,
so he's still in the NFL.
Speaker 1 (21:52):
It's crazy.
Speaker 8 (21:53):
It's also too it's hilarious how people are just so
quick to just say screw you, Trey Lance. And I
honestly think Rock Purdy is going to be the guy,
even though he's sarting ten interceptions in camp. I think
that's just kind of talk him on the.
Speaker 2 (22:06):
Mets will be And you've been listening a long time now,
blind you know, I will be the first one to
sound the alarm bells. And I'm not against shocking all radio, but.
Speaker 1 (22:15):
You have to do it.
Speaker 2 (22:16):
You have to do it, not just one game. You
got to do it in a couple of games in
the regular season. And then I'm like, Okay, this guy's
is stiff.
Speaker 1 (22:23):
But I don't care.
Speaker 2 (22:24):
You could throw interceptions every single pass in practice and
I don't give a rats ass. They don't charge money
for practice.
Speaker 1 (22:31):
Who cares.
Speaker 8 (22:33):
And everyone on Twitter, they like are x or whatever
you call it, they must be so bored just because
everyone's overreacting about this Trey Lant stuff.
Speaker 1 (22:40):
And then well, that's what people do. That's that's what
everyone does with everything.
Speaker 8 (22:43):
Guys in the media like you're saying don't freak out
after week one of the preseason. Then you proceed to
do it. And I know we gotta get to Eddie.
But one last thing. I mean, I don't listen to
Jim Rome, but I can probably assure you since he
takes phone calls, I'd rather listen to him from nine
to noon than a funk I heard.
Speaker 1 (23:00):
So Oh, thank you for that.
Speaker 2 (23:01):
I'm glad you got that. Thanks for saying that. I
appreciate that. Thanks for the company, appreciates that.

over there in Australia, New Zealand. And when that happens,
heads have got to roll head coach. But oh head
coach Vlatko and Deernofsky.

Speaker 2 (24:25):
I'm old enough to remember, Eddie. Team USA women's soccer
dominated the world. Yeah not anymore?
Speaker 6 (24:32):
Though?
Speaker 1 (24:33):
Is it over yet? Is that thing still going on?
Speaker 7 (24:35):
It's the final? Is I believe this weekend?
Speaker 1 (24:40):
Hallelujah? Yeah? You know who's in the final?
Speaker 7 (24:42):
I do? It's uh Spain against England.
Speaker 1 (24:46):
Oh Sweden, didn't me?
Speaker 7 (24:47):
Sweden is in the third place game, which I'm sure
is going to be against Australia. So I guess the
AUSSI like the n I T or something. Consolation prize?
Speaker 1 (24:56):
Yeah, consolation all.
Speaker 2 (24:58):
Right, Well, thank you for that is the Ben Mahler Show.
This fortunate show brought to you by Progressive Insurance. Progressive

Progressive dot com. So a nemesis on this show, the
creepy quarterback Deshaun Watson, the highest paid quarterback, highest paid player.
Speaker 1 (25:21):
In the NFL guaranteed money.
Speaker 2 (25:23):
Deshaun Watson got a little testy a radio gas bag
pointing out that Deshaun Watson was overmatched by the Philadelphia
Eagles defense and they had joint practices, they being the
Browns and the Eagles.
Speaker 1 (25:39):
This week, Watson did not get.
Speaker 2 (25:42):
The job done, and the reporter pointed out the radio
guy said he was effective, only effective in seven on seven,
but not eleven on eleven. Watson, who still to this day,
you would think he would learn his lesson after all
the things he's been doing that you would not search
your name, but Deshaun Watson did just that again. And
(26:04):
because he was not tagged, he was not tagged in
this comment on x slash Twitter. But Watson responded to
that commentary with l ol cap l ol cap the
cap emoji.
Speaker 1 (26:22):
Kids call a liar.
Speaker 2 (26:24):
And I am fascinated by this because I had a
similar interaction with DeShawn before. He back when he was
considered an Eagle scout not a pervert, back in those days.
Speaker 1 (26:35):
You know, the Golden boy out of Clemson.
Speaker 2 (26:37):
You know, I'm gonna fix the world and all that,
and he's just trying to fix some massage therapist. But anyway, whatever,
So Watson got upset with me and he blocked me.
He called me a clown, I believe also if I
remember correctly, and so he blocked me. But now he's
still searching his name. And I didn't even tag him
then either. He he loves searching his I mean, you
(26:58):
think with all the off of him in the baby
yoga pose and all the other poses, that he might
avoid doing that, But no, no, he's still.
Speaker 1 (27:10):
He's still going for it.
Speaker 2 (27:11):
And one of his great fans, and I actually the
biggest Deshaun Watson fan that we have. And I would
also like to put out that that Watson against the
Eagles through three interceptions, I think two of them against that,
two of them to the same guy. But anyway, one
of the great Deshaun Watson supporters that we have so much,
so we think he might be related to Deshaun Watson,
or maybe he has a cousin who's I don't know,
(27:34):
Andre in the Commonwealth. Hello, Andre, welcome.
Speaker 5 (27:41):
Thanks for taking How are you doing, Ben? Can you
hear me? I think I switched over?
Speaker 1 (27:47):
You switched over? All right? Yeah, I can hear you.
I can hear Yes, I can hear you.
Speaker 5 (27:51):
I wasn't sure. I wasn't sure a lead off, but
I'm not going to be tied to Deshaun Watson in
terms of what's going on in year two, all right.
I backed him just and that was in terms of
Philip my philosophy not to use multiple syllable words, uh,
you know, in terms of the legal situation, you know,
versus ciminal uh for civil versus criminal. That that that
(28:11):
was where I kind of chimed in under Shawn. But
how we performed last year, granted he set out the
beginning of the season. Point of fact, is this looking
at the AFC North here, Baltimore resurgent. Cincinnati's going to
handle the situation with Burrow, then the Steelers. I'm jumping
on the Vandwagon early. I don't know if you saw
Mike Tomlin had a one of those kind of inspirational
(28:33):
quotes that kind of went viral on I forget that
because I don't care Elon Musk or forty four billion
that you spent on the company. By the way, quick aside,
I didn't realize.
Speaker 8 (28:41):
Elon Musk has ten kids.
Speaker 5 (28:42):
So that's you know, Elon Musk, is that right?
Speaker 2 (28:45):
Well, when you have that kind of dough, you can, uh,
not only can you have a lot of kids. Apparently
women just will do whatever you want because you're you
got the money. So it's it's almost like going to Walmart.
I guess when you have that kind of money, if
you want a kid, just you know, certain percentage of
women will be like, Okay, we're good, I'm in.
Speaker 5 (29:06):
Here, you ben.
Speaker 1 (29:07):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (29:07):
I got to push back on that. That's why seventy
percent of NBA players and NFL players end up broke
five years after they play okay because of his whole
baby mama drama. So Elon you're not removed from that.
I think the reason he might be wanting to fight
Mark Zuckerberg in the coliseum is because he might be
starting to feel the pinch, you know what I mean.
You know our friend over there, Jeff Bezos, who was
(29:27):
the richest man in the world. He had some it's
not baby Mama drama because him and Mackenzie were together
from the beginning and so a little bit different. She
built that company. I gotta give Mackenzie Bezos a lot
of credit, but after his divorce he had to split
that one hundred and twenty more billion to sixty some
more billions. So Elon, you're not removed quick aside, Ben
shout out to Mackenzie Bezos, who's giving away like eight
billion dollars to charity and no end in sight, you know,
(29:51):
speaking of these people that are very.
Speaker 1 (29:53):
Dou Yeah, you know, you know who I would be pissive.
I was one of the kids. I'd be like, what
about me?
Speaker 2 (29:58):
You know, come on, bans and billions, it's great, but it's.
Speaker 5 (30:05):
Fall Listen to show.
Speaker 2 (30:06):
By the way, when these people, when these people die,
like Elon Musk when he's dead, it's not like in
Egypt where they bury you with the money you're you know,
it all vanishes when you're dead, so it all goes away.
Speaker 5 (30:17):
You might as well see it. You might as well.
See it go to good cars. But I got it.
You know, I was a little surprised. I didn't really
have too much. You know, Elon, you made money in
your successful I don't like what you've done with Twitter,
but ten kids, I was like, wow, you know that's
you got to get that. You gotta get that.
Speaker 1 (30:28):
And is it I don't know, I mean, who cares.
I don't know. It's his business.
Speaker 2 (30:31):
But isn't it like some of them are just they're not.
There was multiple women. He's like the Antonio Cormarti of
the tech people.
Speaker 8 (30:39):
Right, he might be, and I'm telling you you can't.
Speaker 5 (30:44):
We saw what happened with this whole Game of Throne situation.
Elon's you know, you have the issues in your in
your personal life set out the Game of Thrones, right.
That was a good opening scene when Circes goes to
see the suit sayer you know, and says, you're gonna
have three kids, but he's gonna have like you know,
Roberts had like a fifth teen and it ends up
leading to his downfall. So hopefully it gets himself in order.
With Elon musk back the football. Then, look, Deshaun Watson
(31:06):
supported you I supported you in terms of the situation.
You know, you had a lot of civil suits and
very few criminal suits. This year. With this foolishness in
the AFC North, the Browns will make the playoffs again.
I already owe you money. Maybe that that's why I
didn't get a chance to see when you came to comment.
Speaker 1 (31:21):
Ah.
Speaker 2 (31:21):
You know that could be you also didn't email me.
If you'd email me, I would have made a ring.
Speaker 5 (31:26):
And I tried. You know, I had to find the email.
I reached out on social media. I reached out. But
that's a bad job set. I gotta be intrepid and
find what you said email. I went to social media.
Such a bad job by me. But I also owe
you money, so that might be another reason why I
didn't get it.
Speaker 2 (31:39):
Could and that would be a good reason, because when
I owe people money, I I suddenly go into hiding.
Speaker 1 (31:43):
I do the same thing. Anyway, I gotta go, I
gotta go right.
Speaker 2 (31:47):
Thank you a great friend, Andre from the common very polarizing,
polarizing call. We have Mallard the third degree that is
currently warming up in the hot take microwave. But here's
the instad trivia and hear it, blank is the only

Super Bowls in three different decades with the same team. Again, Blank,
the only player in the history of the NFL to

Speaker 2 (33:01):
And Mallard of the Third Degree coming up momentarily. Here
is the insta trivia. Blank the only player in NFL
history who have played in Super Bowls in three different
decades with the same team. That's the key part of that.
With the same team, and do you know the answer?
Let's see does anyone know the answer? We go to
the social media to find out.
Speaker 1 (33:24):
A lot of random names.
Speaker 2 (33:25):
We get more random names than any show Daytime, Nighttime.
Kevin Butler guess by Sean in Portland. Matt the Warrior
Raider fan cheated, he got it right?
Speaker 1 (33:37):
Don King from The Cowboy Killer. Who else do we have?
Speaker 2 (33:40):
Page Down, Matt Gay guess by Miguel on Fire Dbo
got it right?
Speaker 1 (33:46):
Bad job by him? A Riek got it right, Antoine
Randall l from The Late Night.
Speaker 2 (33:52):
Drug Tester, Ty Law tossed out by Nick in Wisconsin,
John Madden from Jimmy from Maine.
Speaker 1 (33:59):
Who else do we have?
Speaker 2 (34:00):
John Pretzel, Pizzulo from Fergcat, Adam ven Teri Yes by
Eke and Roseville, Minnesota, Jim Otto from Wally in Florida.
Cortes Kennedy good name, Fields of Green, Mercury Morris righting
the Mountaintop there skiing from Art Puffin, John Brody from

Steve the Misplaced San Diegan, Gordie Howe tossed out by
Calligan Tim in Michigan. Adam Venitaria also guessed by Hobby Bobby,
Gary Anderson from Chip in the Ques Matthews going with
bobblehead Scott Mitchell.
Speaker 1 (34:41):
Well, that's actually Bredman Matt.
Speaker 2 (34:42):
Going with bobblehead Scott Mitchell, it's the the great How
can I screw that up?
Speaker 1 (34:46):
Bredman Matt from Flint? Bad job by me? Who else?
Do we have?
Speaker 2 (34:50):
Page down? I can't read that, Eddie. Do you have
an answer ready?
Speaker 1 (34:54):
Please?
Speaker 7 (34:55):
Uh sure, let's go with you.
Speaker 1 (34:57):
You could get right, Maybe I can't get this.
Speaker 7 (35:00):
Let's go with former Green Bay Packer offensive tackle Forrest
Greg Forrest.
Speaker 2 (35:05):
Greg a fine name, not a good coach, but that
is incorrect. The correct the answer This guy I remember
more as the head of the NFL Players Association, Jane Upshaw.
Gene Upshaw did it with the old Oakland Raiders back
and also Gene Upshaw he went to the doctor and
(35:28):
he was so sick by the time he went to
the doctor.
Speaker 1 (35:30):
I think he died in a week or something like.
It was like really sick, but he didn't know it. Anyway,
Here we go on that depressing note. Strike up the band.
It's maller.
Speaker 6 (35:38):
How about that to the third degree? This is one
big Ben gets.
Speaker 10 (35:44):
Grill the Coop Dalu justin Coop been Last season the
Ravens didn't have a receiver reached the thousand yard milestone
as their leading receiver was tight end Mark Andrews with
eight hundred and forty seven. Defensive back Marlon Humphrey thinks
that Baltimore will I have two thousand yard receivers this season? Ben,
do you think it can happen?
Speaker 8 (36:04):
So?
Speaker 2 (36:04):
Can it happen? Yes, it can happen. The odds say
it can happen. Will it happen? I'm going no, And
I have to see a sea change from Lamar Jackson.
Lamar his crutch has been when there's any coverage on
the wide receivers, he immediately goes to his safety blanket,
Mark Andrews, the tight end, right, that's his guy. And
(36:26):
so I don't expect that to drastically change, even with
the new offense, and even with Lamar's scouring social media
to come up with plays and all that. But you
look at the wide receiver room in Baltimore. Odell Beckham's
a name, Nelson Aguilar, not a great name, but you
know he's had some success in the NFL. Rashad Bateman,
(36:46):
Zay Flowers. They're hyping that guy up. So those those
are upgrades. That's a pretty good wide receiver room. But
I still I don't buy that two of them will
go over a thousand yards because a couple of those
guys will get hurt and crap happens, all right.
Speaker 10 (37:01):
Next, Ryan Day is forty five and six as the
Ohio State head coach, but Joel Klatt still thinks he
is under immense pressure this season due to losing the
Michigan the last two years in a row. Ben, do
you think Day's job security could hinge on one game?
Speaker 1 (37:15):
Yes, yes, that's how it worked.
Speaker 2 (37:17):
I don't think Ryan Day, and I'm not I'm not
in I don't have a dog in the fight when
it comes to Ohio State football. But from the outside
I did. I don't get the sense that Ryan Day,
with all those wins, that he is beloved by the
buck Guy fan base. And maybe I'm wrong on that,
maybe he is. I just don't get the sense that
there's this love connection between him and the alumni at
(37:41):
that school, which is obviously a big thing. But the
bigger thing is that Ohio State got absolutely crushed.
Speaker 1 (37:48):
They just lose to Michigan last year.
Speaker 2 (37:49):
They got destroyed by Michigan, and so yeah, all it
takes at these schools, a handful of boosters complain and
they don't. They said, we're not gonna pay you money
to the school, and then the coach is gone.
Speaker 1 (38:01):
Next.
Speaker 10 (38:02):
Internet golf personality page Sporadic took to social media Tuesday
to say that the PGA Tour should relax their dress
code and allow golfers to wear shorts. But that was
something that Live Golf allowed. Do you think changes like
that are imminent?
Speaker 2 (38:15):
Well, the Saudis are running the PGA. Now, they're bankrolling
the PGA, so it's possible. I would not bet on it, though.
I think what they should do is if it's over
the heat index is over one hundred and fifty, they
should let them walk around naked and golf is what
they should do, right.
Speaker 1 (38:30):
I think that's what they should do. I think they
do that in the military. It's too I how do
we do kubalou he passes that is a way player
on the park won the game. I won the game.
Hello and welcome.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
It's our num Bird two and we begin our two
with a reality TV show theme. How concerned should Bengal
backers be?
Speaker 1 (00:15):
With Joe Burrow said to be.
Speaker 2 (00:18):
Signed up to do a quarterback documentary show? Is he
going to be lost in the sauce? Our rock Parties
training camp interception something or nothing for the forty nine ers?
And what did you make of the viral video of
to a Tongue of Iloa and the Miami Dolphins play call.
(00:39):
We'll discuss all of these things and a whole lot more.
And you're writing shotgun with us here in our number
two here it.
Speaker 1 (00:48):
Is ready for the boob tube.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
Well gome in the beginning of another hour of the show.
We are in the air everywhere, blathering as we are
a cardboard cutout unless we're not coast to coast, border
the border and beyond on the mast and stratipherically powerful
(01:15):
microphones of FSR emmating live from under the light the

get there and unmatched selection, fast free shipping, free road
hazard protection over ten thousand recommended in Stallars, tyraq dot com,
(01:41):
the way tire buying, shoot me and our lead this
hour coming from a mix of reality television and the
sporting world. Combining these two things, ergo the critically acclaimed
Quarterback documentary TV series on Netflix.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
Check that out or not.
Speaker 2 (02:04):
But if you didn't see the show, apparently many people did,
and those.
Speaker 1 (02:08):
That did see it liked it. That's what we're hearing. Anyway.
Speaker 2 (02:11):
It featured behind the scenes in the life, what it's like,
how do you make the hot dogs for Patrick Mahomes,
Kirk Cousins, and Marcus Mariota. So the formula you have
a headliner Mahomes, you have a middle of the road
quarterback Cousins, and you have a stiff Marcus Mariota. So
(02:34):
that was the formula. So I like to repeat that formula.
There's been a lot of debate over who is going
to be showcased in season two because the show did well,
so they're going to bring back the show. So who's
going to be on in season number two?
Speaker 1 (02:48):
Now?
Speaker 2 (02:48):
Publicly a number a number of quarterbacks have rejected the show,
including Joe Burrow. He said, no, Jalen Hurts, are you
kidding me?
Speaker 1 (03:00):
Come on?
Speaker 2 (03:00):
Trevor Lawrence. I don't think so, Dakota Prescott, come on, well,
we have a change here. If you've not heard the latest,
maybe not. We're now hearing that one of the quarterbacks
who said no has had a change of heart, Joe Burrow.
(03:21):
Joe Burrow now planning, not official, but planning on taking
part in the season long behind the scenes documentary that
according to Peter King and others who are reporting that
Joe Burrow is on board, Burrow had said he would
like to do it at some point, he just didn't
want to do it this year. Well apparently that is
(03:41):
that is not the position he has at this point.
This says, of course, led to what what do you
think has happened? So this is bouncing around that Burrow
has decided he wants to do the show.
Speaker 3 (03:51):
So of course the pearl clutching, the grabbing of the
pearls and holding them tight, trying to get blood out
of them has happened, and they're concern.
Speaker 2 (04:02):
There is concern among Cincinnati backers that their signal caller
is making a horrible decision and this will have a
negative impact on the Cincinnati football team. So let us
discuss the question how concerned should ben Gal fans be
(04:23):
with Joe Burrow doing this quarterback documentary? So I have
County Fair, Saint Joseph, and Rosetta Stone, and we will
put all of these things together and we are going
to make twinkies, is what we're going to make.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
I haven't had one a long time? Why not? So
n Burrow one.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
Yeah, we give this Joe Burrows story that there's people
upset there, they have little heartburn because Joe Burrow is
considering doing this TV show.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
We give this side eye right, like, what are we
doing it?
Speaker 2 (05:01):
It's a stupid show. It's produced by the NFL. It's
not a hit piece. It's not a hatchet job. On
the Malard scale of concern time tested Malard scale of
concern for Joe Burrow one to ten, with ten being
your quarterback has a broken leg before the Super Bowl.
We are going to give that story a two on
(05:22):
the Malard scale of concern. Here's why you think they're
gonna come out there and show Joe Burrow enjoying hookers
and cocaine on the first episode of the new season
of The Quarterback Show.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
I methinks not so much. Right.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
This documentary is a trip to the County Fair. It's cotton, candy,
light and fluffy sugar.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
That's what it is.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
And by the way, that's what it's supposed to be.
It's produced by the NFL people. That's how it's supposed
to work. Patrick Mahomes did not seem to be handicapped
by the documentary last I checked.
Speaker 1 (05:56):
And maybe I'm wrong on this. What do I know?
Speaker 2 (05:59):
But I think unless somehow I dreamt it, the Chiefs
won another Super Bowl with Mahomes. This story is a
microcosm of these psychonic people looking for trivial things to
be worried about.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
In the big picture, what do you do? You're living
a great life.
Speaker 2 (06:19):
You're worried about a guy going on a TV show
that's going to affect your football team. Now, secondly, let's
move on to San Francisco. Second consecutive day that we
have been sucked into the headline about a quarterback who
has been throwing the ball with generosity to the other
team and the beacon.
Speaker 1 (06:40):
Of light not shining on brock party. Say what? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (06:44):
People losing their mind about this too. If you didn't
see it, maybe you missed it.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
We're told that.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
Brock Purty is thrown not one, not two, not three,
not four, not five, not six.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
Naz he has thrown ten interceptions ten in four ni
training camp. Oh my god, Holy Connoy.
Speaker 2 (07:04):
Yeah, I had two more on Wednesdays Niners practice, and
there was another one that was supposedly dropped according to
the forty nine er Beat writers.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
Which I love.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
I love that the Football Beat writers are documenting every
training camp throw. Man is that entertaining content? That's the
content I need. I don't know about you, but man,
is that fun content.
Speaker 1 (07:24):
So this has of.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
Course led the reporting on brock Purty falling apart here
has led to cynics who are saying that Purdy is
being exposed, that he's lyn Sanity, he's the Newlynsanity's Remember
Jeremy Lynn if you're old, Ugh, remember Jeremy Lynn, lotle
guard for the Knickerbockers, who was not supposed to be
anything and turned out.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
To be great.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
I'll never forget the coach Mike D'Antoni was coaching the
Knicks at the time, and they next came in. They
just picked up Jeremy Lynn. He had not started Lin Sanity.
They're playing the Lakers. It was a Sunday night game
Nixon Lakers and one of the beat writers for the Knicks.
After this scrum, the media scrim had edited ask Mike
(08:09):
D'Antoni said, what do you think of this guy Lynn?
And he pretty much D'Antoni said, listen, he's just roster filler.
He's not gonna you know, we don't expect any of
him to do anything. And he then lit the world
on fire for a couple of months. But anyway, the
point is nobody knows anything but our Brock Parties, training
camp interceptions, our Brock Parties training camp interceptions, something or nothing.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
So I have this in the nothing category.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
As a great philosopher of years gone by said, we
ain't here talking about practice, not a game, not a game.
We in here talking about practice. Practice is about experimentation.
The fact that the stats from training camp are being
dragged down, being reported on in a meaningful way is
(08:58):
fascinating to me. It is It's like judging a baseball
player on how many Cactus League dingers they hit and
then deciding they're going to lead the American League in
home runs because they had a bunch of home runs
in Tempee or you know, your favorite outpost in the
valley of the set. It's meaningless dribble. Now, what is
(09:18):
my evidence? I'm talking about this yesterday with Jimmy Garoppolo.
But I'll bring up a great example, my favorite example
of the absurdity of training camp interception reporting. We take
you to Saint Joseph as in Saint Joseph, Missouri, the
site of the twenty eighteen Kansas City Chiefs training camp,
(09:41):
where there was a false alarm that was sent. Text
messages went out incoming warheads go down, go down for
cover the headline and it's still on the internet.
Speaker 1 (09:55):
You can google it.
Speaker 2 (09:57):
Patrick Mahomes had seven inner in his first six practices.
Oh m J Yeah, that was the the headline. Now,
Mahomes was a first year starter at that time. Things
worked out pretty.
Speaker 1 (10:17):
Big good because who cares if you puke.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
Out your guts in practice as long as you don't
hit rock bottom when the game start.
Speaker 1 (10:30):
Final point.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
So let's go to Miami, Miami, Miami, Miami. The Dolphins quarterback,
to a tongue of by law, tempted a little flex here,
was trying to brag about the degree of difficulty and
Mike McDaniel's offense there in Miami to a. He had
a little interaction with reporters. He gave the media an
opportunity to hear a play. He was gonna give a
(10:52):
play like he does in the huddle, and then he
was going to give them the chance to repeat it.
And rather than me just go through the whole thing,
let's go to the audio. Hey, listen to Tua here
as he recites one of the Dolphins plays.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
Listen, give you.
Speaker 4 (11:06):
Guys a play, and then if you guys want to
repeat it after me, as if you guys are in
the hudder, you guys can all right, Okay, should I
go once or twice saying it?
Speaker 1 (11:15):
Yeah? Just do it once? All right?
Speaker 4 (11:16):
We got north right clamp south Fox h top past
thirty eight top gunny xp sweat Let's go anyone sounds yes,
it sounds like a pre snap penalty to me, Oh
my gosh.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
Oh man, alright, alright, so he said, north right clamp,
south Fox h Top past thirty eight top.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
Gumby something something sweat.
Speaker 2 (11:43):
All right, So listen, what did you make of that
little That thing went viral? That thing went viral. So
it's obviously a strike a pose, a strike a pose situation.
Mike McDaniel clearly does not follow the Navy's kiss method.
Speaker 1 (11:58):
Keep it simple, stupid.
Speaker 2 (12:00):
And I've always thought that it's gonna keep get dumb
it down a little bit. You don't have to throw
in the big words and mix all that stuff together.
It's a lot of gibberish, but it's also not that
impressive because it's like anything. I'm fascinated by by magic. Right,
I know it's not real, but I'm fascinated by magic.
(12:21):
But I remember hearing a magician talk about how they're
so amazing at these illusions, and it's like they practice
all day every day to do a card trick. And
if you're a quarterback in the NFL, you specialize. That's
your secret ingredient specialization. You spend hours and hours, eight
(12:42):
hours a day, give or take ten thousand hours. You're
way past ten thousand hours by time.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
You get to the NFL.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
And so you're studying the Rosetta Stone of football and
you end up mastering the language and you get paid
a lot of money for it.
Speaker 1 (13:01):
That's what's supposed to happen, and it's.
Speaker 2 (13:03):
So great and everyone's got their own individual skill. I
have no skill other than just being verbose.
Speaker 1 (13:13):
That's it. I have no sale. I have nothing I
can sell.
Speaker 2 (13:18):
Like I'm always impressed by people that can fix crap
because to me, that's something you can always people are always
gonna need somebody to fix something, or you know, do
outdoor work guarding things like that. Well you actually do
physical labor, you know, triving a truck. That's a skill, right,
Not everyone can do it. You gotta get a special license.
You got to dedicate your life. You're on the road
a lot, you know, it's a pain in the ass.
Speaker 5 (13:39):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (13:39):
So everyone's got their own skill, but the key is
you master. So it's like all these media guys are
like all like, oh my god, their tongues are wagging.
They're like, I can't believe to it knows that he
said gumby.
Speaker 1 (13:50):
H Top South Fox, all.
Speaker 2 (13:52):

Straight ahead, a starting quarterback, one of the highest paid
players in pro football, snapped at a reporter very upset
(14:38):
with something. A reporter said to him, who is the quarterback?
What was said? We'll get to that. We'll take your
calls and we will do it next. I don't know
what kind of ben foolery is going on.
Speaker 6 (14:51):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Mallor
Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific on
Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.

contribute content. You can join that small fraternity of p
ones on the Ben Maler Show. It's painless and simple.
Just follow your host on Twitter. He's at Ben Mallor
and you can tweet at and follow our executive producer.
(15:21):
He is manning the phones, but he is more than
just the call screener. He's the liar, liar and the
menace of the Fox Sports Radio network. It's the coop,
the loop Justin Cooper and he's at u H Bronco fan.
Speaker 8 (15:34):
K Cobu komoting.
Speaker 7 (15:38):
A Bronco fan NLI from the tyrac dot com Fox
Sports Radio Studios. It's Ben Mallor.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
I missed that guy, the drop guy. He called it
a lot of these guys call for a little while.
He disappear. You know, he called back. I mean he moved.
He moved to Florida, I remember correctly, and then his
life changed a little bit. He stopped calling it show.
Speaker 6 (16:00):
But that's Cobu commoting.
Speaker 1 (16:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (16:05):
And if you're new to the show, or you haven't
been listening and you or maybe you forgot that guy.
He's the guy that called up and got very upset
with me. He was angry because I did a commercial
on the ad copy said bouncy or it was it
was a bouncy ball or something like that, and he
(16:26):
got upset. And so anyway we bounce here, bouncey or
bounce here. That's what he got upset with the bounce here.
And so from that point forward, almost all the time
I mentioned in the NBA as a tribute to that guy,
I see a pro bouncy ball as a tribute just
to because it kind of annoyed him. So that was
my that was my move, I know, very exciting. Anyway,
(16:49):
we'll take some calls. We began this hour ranting about
Joe Burrow not official official, but Peter King indicating that
Joe Burrow is gonna do that quarterback show, so he
will be the headliner. Who's the mediocre quarterback? Would that
be like Derek Carr? And then who's the bad quarterback?
Who would that be?
Speaker 1 (17:07):
Sam Darnell something like that. Yeah, I don't know. Mayor
Parker the snow.
Speaker 2 (17:12):
Dog says, Uh.
Speaker 1 (17:15):
It's Dion Sanders' son.
Speaker 2 (17:18):
Is the answer you or you're already answering the question
we haven't even given yet.
Speaker 1 (17:22):
Uh interesting.
Speaker 2 (17:23):
Art Puffin says a plus on the Mally Monologue for
mentioning my Miami Dolphins, d minus for hating on the
next AFC East Champs head coach Mike mcdange. No, I
have nothing against Mike McDaniel. He's a good SoundBite. I'm
in the sound by business. He's a good sound bite.
So I'm I'm all for that. I'm all for it. Milkman,
Mike and Colorado says an exclusive extensive, rather extensive investigation
(17:46):
of the Maui Fire has concluded that it was caused
by a fiery crash by an idiot going down a
hill by.
Speaker 1 (17:54):
The name of Trash. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (17:57):
I don't know that guy was named Maui though, And
you know what happened. He just stopped calling. He teased
us for a couple of months, and then and then.
Speaker 1 (18:04):
That was it. It was all over.
Speaker 2 (18:07):
Oh, I see Parker the snow Dog now representing Arizona State.
I did not know park of the snow Dog was
an Arizona State alumni.
Speaker 7 (18:14):
You know who's gonna be upset about that? Who's that
coach Prime?
Speaker 1 (18:18):
Oh?
Speaker 7 (18:19):
Yeah, you gotta get a Park of the snow Dog
and some buff skiar.
Speaker 2 (18:23):
I could totally see Dion Sanders saying, you know what,
we've got those buffalo Why don't we put Park of
the snow Dog behind the buffalo on that little cart
thing and then we can make magic.
Speaker 7 (18:34):
Right.
Speaker 2 (18:34):
No, wouldn't that be great? Be amazing, combine the worlds
of the legend. And with all due respect to Deon Sanders,
the guy's a big deal. But in Colorado, Park of
the Snow Dog gets much more play on local news,
the TV news.
Speaker 1 (18:50):
They love Park of the snow Dog.
Speaker 7 (18:52):
Did you see any of the videos of the Parker
Palooza of the past, there I have not. He's flying
in on a helicopters, people waiting for him. Unbelievable.
Speaker 2 (19:01):
He's like the mayor of a small town in Colorado.
That's a freaking mayor and he listens to this show.
We got to get Parker back in studio. Now we're
in the new studio across the building.
Speaker 1 (19:11):
We got to get Parker.
Speaker 2 (19:12):
Back in the Park of the snow Dog. And and friend,
the keeper of Parker the snow Dog, has to has
to make the true I don't think Parker will walk
here on its own.
Speaker 1 (19:21):
I don't think that will happen. Let's go to the phones.
Speaker 2 (19:24):
It is a call in show, and let's say hello
to blind Emmett, the Seahawks fan.
Speaker 1 (19:29):
Hello, blind Emmett.
Speaker 8 (19:31):
Hello Big Ben. Have you been taking some garlic lately?
Speaker 1 (19:35):
All week? My man? All week, I've been sucking raw garlic.
It's wonderful.
Speaker 8 (19:41):
Have you had to do it during the commercial breaks yet?
Speaker 1 (19:44):
No, it hasn't gotten that bad.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
And fortunately I think I nipped it right before it
got really bad, So I think I'm all right. I
think I'm past the big problem part of it.
Speaker 8 (19:55):
So, yeah, it's so weirdo in Maine that gave it
to you clearly.
Speaker 2 (20:00):
Yeah, somebody in the north, maybe New Hampshire, I don't know,
possibly Rhode Island people there. Yeah, maybe you know, my
wife made me go to this this breakfast place in
paw Tucket because she saw she said, had good reviews
on Yelp.
Speaker 1 (20:14):
It was terrible, by the way, but I might have
gotten it there.
Speaker 2 (20:17):
That might have been. Where and where have you been?
By the way, where where have you been? Blind in
at the Seahawks fan We have not heard from you
in some time here.
Speaker 8 (20:25):
I've been doing a lot of things, you know. I
was in Oregon for a couple of weeks seeing family,
so it was right after my birthday and then, oh,
I've been doing a lot. Yeah, thank you. In July
I was doing a lot of swimming too. You know,
it's ninety seven, Ben, and I know, you know, weather
with Roberto was a thing. We still worked on the show.
It's like it was one hundred degrees yesterday, like ninety
seven today. And I don't know, I don't know if
(20:48):
anybody knows, but nobody in western Washington has ac So
like when you guys, when it's one hundred, for you,
it's nothing, but for us it's forged. It's super hot.
Speaker 1 (20:58):
It's a dry heath. Though as long as as long
as is not human, it's okay.
Speaker 5 (21:02):
But talk about.
Speaker 8 (21:05):
This whole quarterback thing, and you're talking about brock Perdy
throwing ten interceptions in training camp, and you beat me
to it that this whole false alarm with Patrick Mahomes
because I remember, and I probably wouldn't a minitt this
on national radio, but here we go. I mean, and
my friends were like, oh, he's throwing cheven interceptions and practice,
you know, he's trash, and oh look at him now
with the best quarterback in the NFL. So like, do
(21:27):
I think that's the case for every quarterback?
Speaker 1 (21:28):
Of course not.
Speaker 8 (21:29):
You know, like there's a lot of busts out there
that you got. You got guys like Peterman, you know,
I mean, it's just what it is.
Speaker 2 (21:35):
But Peter Peterman must be a great quarterback in camp,
in practice. He's got to be an All Star, an
All American. Was watching the Bears exhibition game. I was
stuck on a plane. He was playing for the Bears.
In the second half of their exhibition game against Carolina,
so he's still in the NFL.
Speaker 1 (21:52):
It's crazy.
Speaker 8 (21:53):
It's also too it's hilarious how people are just so
quick to just say screw you, Trey Lance. And I
honestly think Rock Purdy is going to be the guy,
even though he's sarting ten interceptions in camp. I think
that's just kind of talk him on the.
Speaker 2 (22:06):
Mets will be And you've been listening a long time now,
blind you know, I will be the first one to
sound the alarm bells. And I'm not against shocking all radio, but.
Speaker 1 (22:15):
You have to do it.
Speaker 2 (22:16):
You have to do it, not just one game. You
got to do it in a couple of games in
the regular season. And then I'm like, Okay, this guy's
is stiff.
Speaker 1 (22:23):
But I don't care.
Speaker 2 (22:24):
You could throw interceptions every single pass in practice and
I don't give a rats ass. They don't charge money
for practice.
Speaker 1 (22:31):
Who cares.
Speaker 8 (22:33):
And everyone on Twitter, they like are x or whatever
you call it, they must be so bored just because
everyone's overreacting about this Trey Lant stuff.
Speaker 1 (22:40):
And then well, that's what people do. That's that's what
everyone does with everything.
Speaker 8 (22:43):
Guys in the media like you're saying don't freak out
after week one of the preseason. Then you proceed to
do it. And I know we gotta get to Eddie.
But one last thing. I mean, I don't listen to
Jim Rome, but I can probably assure you since he
takes phone calls, I'd rather listen to him from nine
to noon than a funk I heard.
Speaker 1 (23:00):
So Oh, thank you for that.
Speaker 2 (23:01):
I'm glad you got that. Thanks for saying that. I
appreciate that. Thanks for the company, appreciates that.

Well, Ben, as you well know, the US women's national
soccer team came up small in the Women's World Cup
over there in Australia, New Zealand. And when that happens,
heads have got to roll head coach. But oh head
coach Vlatko and Deernofsky.
Speaker 1 (24:05):
That's just like his mama said, Yes.
Speaker 7 (24:07):
Has submitted his resignation. You need a fall guy in shame,
in shame, and he sha out as head coach of
the He.
Speaker 1 (24:14):
Walked out with tail between his legs. Eddy, he was
that just devastated by that.
Speaker 7 (24:19):
Andronofsky me going, how.
Speaker 1 (24:22):
Will we ever get a respectful coach for t US?
Speaker 2 (24:25):
I'm old enough to remember, Eddie. Team USA women's soccer
dominated the world. Yeah not anymore?
Speaker 6 (24:32):
Though?
Speaker 1 (24:33):
Is it over yet? Is that thing still going on?
Speaker 7 (24:35):
It's the final? Is I believe this weekend?
Speaker 1 (24:40):
Hallelujah? Yeah? You know who's in the final?
Speaker 7 (24:42):
I do? It's uh Spain against England.
Speaker 1 (24:46):
Oh Sweden, didn't me?
Speaker 7 (24:47):
Sweden is in the third place game, which I'm sure
is going to be against Australia. So I guess the
AUSSI like the n I T or something. Consolation prize?

creepy quarterback Deshaun Watson, the highest paid quarterback, highest paid player.
Speaker 1 (25:21):
In the NFL guaranteed money.
Speaker 2 (25:23):
Deshaun Watson got a little testy a radio gas bag
pointing out that Deshaun Watson was overmatched by the Philadelphia
Eagles defense and they had joint practices, they being the
Browns and the Eagles.
Speaker 1 (25:39):
This week, Watson did not get.
Speaker 2 (25:42):
The job done, and the reporter pointed out the radio
guy said he was effective, only effective in seven on seven,
but not eleven on eleven. Watson, who still to this day,
you would think he would learn his lesson after all
the things he's been doing that you would not search
your name, but Deshaun Watson did just that again. And
(26:04):
because he was not tagged, he was not tagged in
this comment on x slash Twitter. But Watson responded to
that commentary with l ol cap l ol cap the
cap emoji.
Speaker 1 (26:22):
Kids call a liar.
Speaker 2 (26:24):
And I am fascinated by this because I had a
similar interaction with DeShawn before. He back when he was
considered an Eagle scout not a pervert, back in those days.
Speaker 1 (26:35):
You know, the Golden boy out of Clemson.
Speaker 2 (26:37):
You know, I'm gonna fix the world and all that,
and he's just trying to fix some massage therapist. But anyway, whatever,
So Watson got upset with me and he blocked me.
He called me a clown, I believe also if I
remember correctly, and so he blocked me. But now he's
still searching his name. And I didn't even tag him
then either. He he loves searching his I mean, you
(26:58):
think with all the off of him in the baby
yoga pose and all the other poses, that he might
avoid doing that, But no, no, he's still.
Speaker 1 (27:10):
He's still going for it.
Speaker 2 (27:11):
And one of his great fans, and I actually the
biggest Deshaun Watson fan that we have. And I would
also like to put out that that Watson against the
Eagles through three interceptions, I think two of them against that,
two of them to the same guy. But anyway, one
of the great Deshaun Watson supporters that we have so much,
so we think he might be related to Deshaun Watson,
or maybe he has a cousin who's I don't know,
(27:34):
Andre in the Commonwealth. Hello, Andre, welcome.
Speaker 5 (27:41):
Thanks for taking How are you doing, Ben? Can you
hear me? I think I switched over?
Speaker 1 (27:47):
You switched over? All right? Yeah, I can hear you.
I can hear Yes, I can hear you.
Speaker 5 (27:51):
I wasn't sure. I wasn't sure a lead off, but
I'm not going to be tied to Deshaun Watson in
terms of what's going on in year two, all right.
I backed him just and that was in terms of
Philip my philosophy not to use multiple syllable words, uh,
you know, in terms of the legal situation, you know,
versus ciminal uh for civil versus criminal. That that that
(28:11):
was where I kind of chimed in under Shawn. But
how we performed last year, granted he set out the
beginning of the season. Point of fact, is this looking
at the AFC North here, Baltimore resurgent. Cincinnati's going to
handle the situation with Burrow, then the Steelers. I'm jumping
on the Vandwagon early. I don't know if you saw
Mike Tomlin had a one of those kind of inspirational
(28:33):
quotes that kind of went viral on I forget that
because I don't care Elon Musk or forty four billion
that you spent on the company. By the way, quick aside,
I didn't realize.
Speaker 8 (28:41):
Elon Musk has ten kids.
Speaker 5 (28:42):
So that's you know, Elon Musk, is that right?
Speaker 2 (28:45):
Well, when you have that kind of dough, you can, uh,
not only can you have a lot of kids. Apparently
women just will do whatever you want because you're you
got the money. So it's it's almost like going to Walmart.
I guess when you have that kind of money, if
you want a kid, just you know, certain percentage of
women will be like, Okay, we're good, I'm in.
Speaker 5 (29:06):
Here, you ben.
Speaker 1 (29:07):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (29:07):
I got to push back on that. That's why seventy
percent of NBA players and NFL players end up broke
five years after they play okay because of his whole
baby mama drama. So Elon you're not removed from that.
I think the reason he might be wanting to fight
Mark Zuckerberg in the coliseum is because he might be
starting to feel the pinch, you know what I mean.
You know our friend over there, Jeff Bezos, who was
(29:27):
the richest man in the world. He had some it's
not baby Mama drama because him and Mackenzie were together
from the beginning and so a little bit different. She
built that company. I gotta give Mackenzie Bezos a lot
of credit, but after his divorce he had to split
that one hundred and twenty more billion to sixty some
more billions. So Elon, you're not removed quick aside, Ben
shout out to Mackenzie Bezos, who's giving away like eight
billion dollars to charity and no end in sight, you know,
(29:51):
speaking of these people that are very.
Speaker 1 (29:53):
Dou Yeah, you know, you know who I would be pissive.
I was one of the kids. I'd be like, what
about me?
Speaker 2 (29:58):
You know, come on, bans and billions, it's great, but it's.
Speaker 5 (30:05):
Fall Listen to show.
Speaker 2 (30:06):
By the way, when these people, when these people die,
like Elon Musk when he's dead, it's not like in
Egypt where they bury you with the money you're you know,
it all vanishes when you're dead, so it all goes away.
Speaker 5 (30:17):
You might as well see it. You might as well.
See it go to good cars. But I got it.
You know, I was a little surprised. I didn't really
have too much. You know, Elon, you made money in
your successful I don't like what you've done with Twitter,
but ten kids, I was like, wow, you know that's
you got to get that. You gotta get that.
Speaker 1 (30:28):
And is it I don't know, I mean, who cares.
I don't know. It's his business.
Speaker 2 (30:31):
But isn't it like some of them are just they're not.
There was multiple women. He's like the Antonio Cormarti of
the tech people.
Speaker 8 (30:39):
Right, he might be, and I'm telling you you can't.
Speaker 5 (30:44):
We saw what happened with this whole Game of Throne situation.
Elon's you know, you have the issues in your in
your personal life set out the Game of Thrones, right.
That was a good opening scene when Circes goes to
see the suit sayer you know, and says, you're gonna
have three kids, but he's gonna have like you know,
Roberts had like a fifth teen and it ends up
leading to his downfall. So hopefully it gets himself in order.
With Elon musk back the football. Then, look, Deshaun Watson
(31:06):
supported you I supported you in terms of the situation.
You know, you had a lot of civil suits and
very few criminal suits. This year. With this foolishness in
the AFC North, the Browns will make the playoffs again.
I already owe you money. Maybe that that's why I
didn't get a chance to see when you came to comment.
Speaker 1 (31:21):
Ah.
Speaker 2 (31:21):
You know that could be you also didn't email me.
If you'd email me, I would have made a ring.
Speaker 5 (31:26):
And I tried. You know, I had to find the email.
I reached out on social media. I reached out. But
that's a bad job set. I gotta be intrepid and
find what you said email. I went to social media.
Such a bad job by me. But I also owe
you money, so that might be another reason why I
didn't get it.
Speaker 2 (31:39):
Could and that would be a good reason, because when
I owe people money, I I suddenly go into hiding.
Speaker 1 (31:43):
I do the same thing. Anyway, I gotta go, I
gotta go right.
Speaker 2 (31:47):
Thank you a great friend, Andre from the common very polarizing,

Speaker 1 (34:41):
Well, that's actually Bredman Matt.
Speaker 2 (34:42):
Going with bobblehead Scott Mitchell, it's the the great How
can I screw that up?
Speaker 1 (34:46):
Bredman Matt from Flint? Bad job by me? Who else?

Speaker 2 (34:50):
Page down? I can't read that, Eddie. Do you have
an answer ready?
Speaker 1 (34:54):
Please?
Speaker 7 (34:55):
Uh sure, let's go with you.
Speaker 1 (34:57):
You could get right, Maybe I can't get this.
Speaker 7 (35:00):
Let's go with former Green Bay Packer offensive tackle Forrest
Greg Forrest.
Speaker 2 (35:05):
Greg a fine name, not a good coach, but that
is incorrect. The correct the answer This guy I remember
more as the head of the NFL Players Association, Jane Upshaw.
Gene Upshaw did it with the old Oakland Raiders back
and also Gene Upshaw he went to the doctor and
(35:28):
he was so sick by the time he went to
the doctor.
Speaker 1 (35:30):
I think he died in a week or something like.
It was like really sick, but he didn't know it. Anyway,
Here we go on that depressing note. Strike up the band.
It's maller.
Speaker 6 (35:38):
How about that to the third degree? This is one
big Ben gets.
Speaker 10 (35:44):
Grill the Coop Dalu justin Coop been Last season the
Ravens didn't have a receiver reached the thousand yard milestone
as their leading receiver was tight end Mark Andrews with
eight hundred and forty seven. Defensive back Marlon Humphrey thinks
that Baltimore will I have two thousand yard receivers this season? Ben,
do you think it can happen?
Speaker 8 (36:04):
So?
Speaker 2 (36:04):
Can it happen? Yes, it can happen. The odds say
it can happen. Will it happen? I'm going no, And
I have to see a sea change from Lamar Jackson.
Lamar his crutch has been when there's any coverage on
the wide receivers, he immediately goes to his safety blanket,
Mark Andrews, the tight end, right, that's his guy. And
(36:26):
so I don't expect that to drastically change, even with
the new offense, and even with Lamar's scouring social media
to come up with plays and all that. But you
look at the wide receiver room in Baltimore. Odell Beckham's
a name, Nelson Aguilar, not a great name, but you
know he's had some success in the NFL. Rashad Bateman,
(36:46):
Zay Flowers. They're hyping that guy up. So those those
are upgrades. That's a pretty good wide receiver room. But
I still I don't buy that two of them will
go over a thousand yards because a couple of those
guys will get hurt and crap happens, all right.
Speaker 10 (37:01):
Next, Ryan Day is forty five and six as the
Ohio State head coach, but Joel Klatt still thinks he
is under immense pressure this season due to losing the
Michigan the last two years in a row. Ben, do
you think Day's job security could hinge on one game?
Speaker 1 (37:15):
Yes, yes, that's how it worked.
Speaker 2 (37:17):
I don't think Ryan Day, and I'm not I'm not
in I don't have a dog in the fight when
it comes to Ohio State football. But from the outside
I did. I don't get the sense that Ryan Day,
with all those wins, that he is beloved by the
buck Guy fan base. And maybe I'm wrong on that,
maybe he is. I just don't get the sense that
there's this love connection between him and the alumni at
(37:41):
that school, which is obviously a big thing. But the
bigger thing is that Ohio State got absolutely crushed.
Speaker 1 (37:48):
They just lose to Michigan last year.
Speaker 2 (37:49):
They got destroyed by Michigan, and so yeah, all it
takes at these schools, a handful of boosters complain and
they don't. They said, we're not gonna pay you money
to the school, and then the coach is gone.
Speaker 1 (38:01):
Next.
Speaker 10 (38:02):
Internet golf personality page Sporadic took to social media Tuesday
to say that the PGA Tour should relax their dress
code and allow golfers to wear shorts. But that was
something that Live Golf allowed. Do you think changes like
that are imminent?
Speaker 2 (38:15):
Well, the Saudis are running the PGA. Now, they're bankrolling
the PGA, so it's possible. I would not bet on it, though.
I think what they should do is if it's over
the heat index is over one hundred and fifty, they
should let them walk around naked and golf is what
they should do, right.
Speaker 1 (38:30):
I think that's what they should do. I think they
do that in the military. It's too I how do
we do kubalou he passes that is a way player
on the park won the game. I won the game.
