Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello and welcome. It's our name Birth three. We start
out in South Florida. A historical effort by the Miami
football team. Does the Dolphins scoring seventy points say more
about the Miami offense or the Denver defense? Also, Sean
(00:20):
Payton says he's at a loss for words. What does
that even mean? How much blame? We'll talk about some
of the other stories as well. How much blame does
Ron Rivera get for the Commanders being roasted by the
Bills on a rainy day in Landover, Maryland? And how
did the Saints, with supposedly a pretty good defense allow
the Packers to come back? Does Derek Carr's absence derail
(00:44):
know Leans. We'll talk about all of those angles and
many many more right now here. It is our number three.
Sometimes you are the fire hydrant, Sometimes you are the
dog the Denver NACo's got a life lesson about that? Well.
Come in the beginning of another hour of the Ben
(01:09):
Maler Show. We are in the air everywhere, serving up
a word buffet as we are bare bones coast to coast,
border the border and beyond on the mast and imposingly
powerful microphones of fsre ammating live from the song as

we sing for our supper. We are broadcasting live from

our lead this hour, coming from South Florida. And oh
(01:55):
what a story. It is the story that people chatting
about all day on Sunday and again throughout at the
beginning of the week. Here did you see what happened
in that Dolphin game? Did you hear about that? No,
you missed it. You were not paying attention. Must ride
with you. Shame on you. A historical performance on both
the side of Denver and the side of Miami as
(02:18):
the running back duo of Raheem Mostart and Devon a
Chain ran wild. They combined for two hundred and eighty
five yards five rushing touchdowns on nine point two yards
per attempt. Remember that old line three yards and a
cloud of dust. How about nine point two yards in
(02:39):
a cloud of dust? And they added another ninety yards
and three touchdowns via eleven receptions as the Dolphins hung
a seventy burger the Miami Dolphins scored seventy points against
the Denver football team, who had all but twenty to
a tongue of by lower three hundred yards per us
(03:00):
passing four touchdowns. Miami improves to three and zero and
Denver drops to a dismal zero to three. The better
story clearly in the losing locker room. All of that
bravado of Sean Payton and all of the arrogance, all
the confidence that Sean Payton supposedly brought to the Denver
(03:22):
football team, and you go out and lose by fifty
points against the Dolphins. So let's discuss the question here.
Does this outcome, the Dolphins scoring seventy points say more
about how electrifying the Miami offense is or more about
how god awful the Denver defenses? And the arrow on
(03:47):
this one is clearly pointing towards the Broncos, and it's
not even close. Miami's got a fine offense, congratulations, But
this is all about the Broncos. That's where the story is.
I've got GQ guys, confectionery and warped, and we will
combine all of these things together and we are going
(04:08):
to make an updated resume, which is what Sean Payton
would be doing now if he was not given a
fully guaranteed contract for roughly twenty million dollars a year.
Otherwise he would be looking for work. They say, you know,
it's not you, it's us. We need to change. You're
out of here. Wow, you do not give up that
(04:30):
many points and that many yards if you're trying. Let's
start with that. And I've heard being around sports enough
over the years, and here's a lot in basketball when
a team loses by thirty or forty points, that you
don't lose by that many points if you're giving an
honest effort. You just don't. And in the NFL, you
(04:50):
don't lose by thirty plus points, in this case fifty
if you're putting a day's work in. The teams are
not separate. Even the the worst team in football and
the top team in football are not separated by fifty
points if they are both putting the effort in. That
is the reality of the NFL. You watch these games
(05:11):
by design, even the bad teams playing the good teams,
with few exceptions, are usually within a couple of scores.
Going to the fourth quarter on a given NFL Sunday,
the Dolphins putting up seven hundred and twenty six yards
of offense and thirty first downs ten touchdowns. These are
(05:32):
video game numbers. These is ridiculous. It is not possible
without an assist. And I hope the Dolphins gave a
game ball to every one of those gutless Denver Bronco
defensive players and they all got paid and the Broncos
got played. But there's a bigger issue here. The bigger
(05:53):
issue is Sean Payton. And this is clearly a team
that doesn't like Sean Payton, doesn't play for Sean Peyton.
And no matter what kind of coaching mumbo jumbo he
tosses out, it's not work, it's not worry. Let's take
a listen to Sean Payton here on his postgame Diet Tribe.
(06:18):
Here he said he just didn't know what to say.
He was totally zonkerd is what he was.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
Take a listen those next two days, we'll have a
lot to look at and discuss. Again. It's disappointing. I mean,
I'm got a loss for words because I've never been
in I've been on the other side of some games
like that, and then every once in a while on
this league, you get your butt whip, but this was
more than that.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
Peyton also talked about the defense a little bit. What defense,
There was no defense. Here's a Sean Payton on that.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
We got a look closely what we were doing. And
you know when someone runs the ball up and down
the field like those guys did and throw it up
and down the field, you know, it's not acceptable.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
Not acceptable, all right. So this is not his first barbecue,
Sean Payton, as he referenced in that particular SoundBite. But
they the Bronco roster right now. I don't know why
this is, but it's just the way it is. They
are filled with a bunch of what we call g
Q guys. You know what GQ guys is in sports
lingo game quitters, And the Broncos have a lot of
(07:23):
game quitters. They have guys that, you know, to the
naked eye, to the untrained eye, they look like they're trying,
but they're not really trying. Little effort, no tackling, matador
defense Olo o leo laole ol monodor. That's the Broncos
gutless football team. The Dolphins absolutely castrated the Broncos with
(07:44):
an assist by Denver. It took their will away from them,
and Peyton got paid to fix this. He talked all
the trash. He was going around, you know, had his
tail up and he was like a peacock with his
feathers out about how great his resume I was and
things were gonna be different, and nothing is different, nothing is.
(08:05):
In fact, it's actually worse. You know. He was goofing
on Nathaniel Hackett, and Nathaniel Hackett deserved to be goofed
on it. You know, these both things can be simultaneously true.
Hackett can be a stiff and Sean Payton can be
right to call out Hackett, and at the same time
Sean Payton can be a boob. All of these things
can be true, and they appear to be true. Now
(08:26):
more on the historical nature of the Denver Miami game,
but we're gonna turn the page briefly because we go
to Landover, Maryland where the Commander's quarterback, Sam Howe. Holy crap,
you see his numbers he had. He had his own
historical performance. He got lost in the shuffle because of
what happened in Miami. But Sam Howe ended up with
(08:48):
four interceptions and nine sacks. The NFL has not seen
that kind of stat line going back to the mid nineties,
been twenty eight eight years. Warren Moon was the last
quarterback to put up that kind of stat line in
the mid nineties. So how much of the blame does
Ron Rivera get for the Commanders being roasted by the
(09:11):
Buffalo Bills. Well, he's got to get the biggest slice
of the blame pie. With a wink and a nod
to Eric Bietemy, the game plan seemed to be out
of sorts. The weather was not particularly good, big storm
here bouncing was bouncing up the Eastern seaboard there on Sundays,
so you had a lot of inclement weather. And the
(09:34):
Washington football team, who had been to and oh granted
a marshmallow soft tow and oh as, Washington had to
come back beat Arizona and then they also beat Denver,
which doesn't impress you at all. But this game for
Washington was a placement test, and the Commanders don't measure
up on any possible level. They don't. You're at home,
(09:58):
You're playing a team that's more talented than you. Can
you compete? Can you hang around? The weather should be
in your favorite you would think the weather would be
in your favor, that the passing attack would not be
that great, so you're going to have to play a
grinded out style of football and all that. And Sam
Howe goes out there, he's only making his fourth start,
(10:19):
and my goodness, what an iesore by Sam Howe as
he opened up the old confection area there and served
up a poop Sunday with a nice big hunk of
pooh right on top of that poop Sunday there. Bonehead
throws just terrible. But ultimately this does come back to
the head coach, Ron Rivera, because as this was a
(10:42):
placement test and Washington ends up being put on the
short bus with Roberto driving the short bus or old
buddy Roberto. But here's the thing, right, Ron Rivera, his
team in zombie mode in this game, just two hundred
and thirty yards of offense, one of nine on three down.
The owner just spent six billion dollars to buy the
(11:04):
Washington football team. You think this is the kind of
performance that's going to inspire confidence to keep Ron river
or is this going to cause the owner Josh Harris
there to say I need to tidy things up and
say bye bye to Ron Rivera. He's a long shot
to keep the job anyway. But any any semblance of
(11:24):
hope here, you would think, is out the window. After this,
now final thought, Let's go to Green Bay where Jordan
Love he ran for a score and he tossed for
a touchdown late in the game, and the Green Bay
football team able to storm back from a seventeen to
nothing deficit and they get a one point win, eighteen
to seventeen over New Orleans. The better story in the
(11:48):
losing locker room. How did the Saints gag away a
three score lead, dominating shutting down the packer offense? How
did they allow this game to get away? How did
it happen? So the one thing that stands out here
is what was supposed to be the essence of the Saints.
(12:11):
I did the essence. The defense did not show up.
They were to quote a delicacy in Louisiana, Paul Boys
on defense. My god, they warped in the fourth quarter,
not even the second half, just the fourth quarter. Jordan Love,
who didn't do much anything for the first part of
(12:32):
the game, and then in the fourth quarter he had
one hundred and twenty six yards of offense, passing and
rushing for a touchdown.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
Packers usually analytics. They went with the analytics, and they
went for two, and they got the lead there. But
Jordan Love getting it done. Now the Saints have the
ultimate trump card of excuses. They'll say, hey, well, we
would have won, we could have won, we should have won.
But Derek Carr got hurt. So does Derek carr shoulder
(13:00):
injury derail the New Orleans season?
Speaker 1 (13:05):
And I'm saying no, we don't know how long Car
is gonna be out. The initial reports are rather optimistic
that car will only miss a limited amount of time,
but this is an unpopular opinion. Derek Carr's not very good.
He's not And Jameis Winston. That's a lateral move going
(13:26):
from Derek Carr to Jameis Winston. Winston's also not very good,
but he's about the same. Like, there'll be stretches where
Jameis Winston will look great and you'll say, Wow, that
guy's awesome, and he's the only thirty thirty guy in
the history of the NFL thirty touchdowns, thirty interceptions, and
then Winston will have some absolute brain farts where he
(13:46):
will just give the football a back to the opponent
multiple times and cause you to lose. But that's pretty
much what Derek Carr does. Derek Carr at stretches looks
really good and you say, this guy knows what he's doing.
And then for other stretches you're like, how did this
guy ever make it in the NFL? Shouldn't he be
selling cars somewhere? What is up with this? I don't
understand it. It is the Ben Mallard Show. If you'd
(14:08):
like to comment about any of the things we just
talked about, and then we talked about earlier in the
show that Dallas Cowboys lose to one of the least
talented teams in football, probably the least talented team in
the NFL. The Chicago Bears lost and are so bad.
They lost by thirty plus points to the Kansas City Chiefs.
The Bears are so bad? How about are they that
they are a home underdog to the Broncos. We talked
(14:29):
about this last hour, who just lost by fifty points?
That is stunning, stunning, stunning, stunning, stunning, stunning. Time Now
for the Mallard Riddle of day. By the way, you
can call up if you want. It's like a speakeasy
thing here. If you find the number calls up, well,
we'll chat with you. But the Mallord Riddle of the day.
And here it is Malar Riddle of the day, and
(14:50):
we go to former NFL receiver Chad Ocho Cinco Johnson
Chad Johnson, who recently disclosed that before his career in
professional football, he worked as a blank. Again, the Mallor
Riddle of the day, Chad Johnson disclosing recently that before
his pro football career he worked as a blank. That
(15:16):
is the Mallor riddle of the day. The answer, We'll
get to it. We'll do it next.
Speaker 4 (15:21):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Maller
Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific on
Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 5 (15:31):
Join the curious world of the Ben Mallor Show online.
It's 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 manning
the phones, but he is more than just a call screener.
He is the liar, liar and the menace of the
Fox Sports Radio network. It's the Coop the Loop Justin
(15:52):
Cooper and he's at uh Bronco Fan and Alive from
the tire rack dot Com, Fox Sports Radio Studios.
Speaker 6 (16:03):
It's pen maalor.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
All Things football. You give us a few minutes, we'll
give you some football nonsense. But right now it is
time for the mallor riddle of the day. And here's
the malary of the day. Former NFL receiver Chad Johnson,
who went by Ocho Cinco for a few years, disclosed
that before his career in pro football, he worked as
(16:28):
a blank. That is the question. What is the answer,
And let's see does anyone know the answer? Late night
drug tester says Dick In Dayton's mandolin stringer is the answer?
Fercat says Adam Sandler's body double, A night of the
round from Asher, A mime from mister nice guy. Who
(16:50):
else do we have that's not a baseball player from
the nineteen seventies or eighties, Batch up by you. Chad
Ocho Singo was a babysitter guest by Freddie page Down,
a Spanish professor at a community college, very specific by
Frank Lingerie shop attendant guests by Ozzy Waz in Western
Australia and Alf the Alien opiner from Springfield, mass says
(17:13):
that Ocho worked as a civil servant as the answer
page down. Justin in Cincinnati says a hooker in Galveston,
Texas is the answer. Robin Minnesota says Chad Johnson worked
as a weatherman that can never get the forecast right
(17:33):
page down. Who else do we have? Bartender at the
Regal Beagle from Paul d Always good to get the
Regal Beagle in there? Who else do we have? Carnival
ride operator guests by Sean in Portland, Eke in Roseville,
Minnesota's probably the hardest job listed. Andy Furman's mailman, he says,
is the answer. Late night trug tester Calm down Eddie,
(17:55):
late night, late night drug test that says the only
thing stopping the Dolphins was in Kelsey's suite in Kansas City.
He says, having the Swifties follow the NFL bigger than
having her play the Super Bowl. That's a non sequitor, Eddie.
Do you have an answer, Eddie, please to the Mallord
riddle of the day.
Speaker 5 (18:13):
Yes, he had a john picking up corpses and then
but he picked up the wrong and then he got fired.
Speaker 1 (18:20):
Yeah, so he started calling overnight radio after that. No,
that's incorrect, the correct answer. Shout out Justin and Cincinnati.
Former NFL receiver Chad Ocho Cinco aka Chad Johnson recently
disclosing that before his career in professional football, he worked
as a male stripper name Twix. That's right. He was
an exotic dancer and his stage name was Twix. What
(18:47):
that's what he said? I don't know. He's lying. I
was Sam, did you ever go to a club and
see a stripper named Twix? No? He did not. All right,
I've not You've missed out on that. Okay, just check
the summer saying we should call X slash Twitter, we
should call it twix. What do you think about that?
Get the X incorporated in there. I don't care what
they call it the candy bar, right, I call it
(19:10):
whatever they want to call it. It doesn't it's just
so bad. It's, you know, whatever, you got a few money.
It's a few money. Elon's got a few money. You
can do whatever you want. You got a few money.
It's making the rest of us miserable. I'd like to
have that few money. I do the same thing. Now
here's a stat a factoid that sums up how incompetence.
Josh McDaniels is his coach for the Raiders, and yeah,
(19:30):
he does not color inside the lines. He colors outside
the lines. Now, the Raiders game against the Steelers last night,
which was a few hours before we came on the air.
The Raiders had the ball, fourth down and four from
their own eight yard line. They were down by eight points,
so a touchdown two point conversion ties it. There's a
couple of minutes left in the game, and Josh McDaniels
(19:51):
decided to kick a field goal since the two point
conversion was adopted, I just saw this. Since the two
point conversion was adopted back in the mid nineties, the
Las Vegas Raiders are the only team in the NFL
to attempt a field goal in the last three minutes
of the fourth quarter. Went down by exactly eight points
(20:11):
with less than five yards to go for a first
down or a touchdown. It had never happened before. Congratulations
to Josh McDaniels and the Raiders. Way to go outstanding.
Let's go to the phones and we'll say hello to
Let's say hello to Chad who is in Dallas what's
(20:32):
going on? Chad? Welcome, Hello, big Dan.
Speaker 7 (20:36):
Hi you Hey. I told my wife that if you
live next door, I would just do your yard for
free because of all the joy you bring to our household.
Speaker 1 (20:45):
But are you very kind? If you'd like, I can
arrange that. Are you good? Are you good at lawn work?
Speaker 8 (20:53):
Like?
Speaker 1 (20:53):
What's your specialty?
Speaker 7 (20:55):
I have about thirty different career fields I've worked in,
so I can get a lot.
Speaker 1 (20:59):
That's a lot like Fletch, that old actor, you know,
the old the movie there. You've done a lot of
different jobs there.
Speaker 7 (21:04):
Yeah. I told my dad earlier tonight you stole my thunder.
You mentioned the thing about toast with the cowboys, and
I told him, I said, remember dad, back in the seventies,
the local statehouses in Texas, if you ordered a t
bone with a baked potato, they it came complementary with
a basket of Texas toast. And yeah, and uh, our coach,
(21:31):
he calls this the Texas Coast Office.
Speaker 1 (21:35):
Oh yes, right, they yeah, they changed. It's not the
West Coast Office. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's right.
Speaker 7 (21:39):
Dallas blows anytime. They played down to the level of
their competition, and today they got their ass handed to them.
It's not Texas Coast, it's Texas toast off there.
Speaker 1 (21:51):
Yeah, that's what it certainly was. But that's hard. I mean,
that's hard. The Cowboys are so much more talented than
the Cardinals. Chad too, No, I I kind of anticipated this.
I was happy with the outcome, but I mean, the
Cardinals play hard. I'll give them that they're not supposed to,
but the Cowboys to be behind the entire game is fascinating.
Speaker 7 (22:11):
Well, remember when Romo was dating Jessica Simpson, we had
more of a stable offense. Do you think if Dack
managed to pull off the Taylor Swift date, if she
was in the box, that we would You know, we
could fare better for the course of the season. But
let me tell you what it's like being a Cowboy
fan for the last twenty seven years since Jimmy Johnson
got run out of town. It'd be like a rehab
(22:36):
that helps recovering addicts, and then they offer the graduates
of the rehab a job lead to the bartending academy
across the street. I mean, it's just ridiculous.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
But it's consistent. It's good for sports radio.
Speaker 6 (22:51):
Chah.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
Think of those of us that do sports radio. It's good, It's.
Speaker 6 (22:54):
Gonna be good.
Speaker 7 (22:55):
Yeah, You've got a lot of material with these clowns.
It's like The Young and the Restless, that soap opera
back in the eighties, which was just unlimited content. Yeah, sure,
over a coffee pot. But what do you think is
going to happen with the Patriots that are coming up
with Zeke on the other side of the ball.
Speaker 1 (23:17):
Oh, that's right, the great return of Zeke Elly, who
actually looked good against the Zeke actually looked pretty good
against the Jets. Shot.
Speaker 7 (23:23):
They've got San Francisco and then we've got the Chargers.
Speaker 1 (23:29):
Well, well, typically, I believe I'm a big believer in
the zig zag theory that you if you're a good
team you have a bad game, you're not gonna have
two bad games in a row. But Bill Belichick knows
a thing or two about defense, so you can mess
with Dak Prescott. I just don't know how the Patriots
are going to be able to score against the Cowboys.
But if Joshua Dobbs is able to score, then I
(23:49):
guess Mac Jones can put some points up. It doesn't
seem likely because I think Jobs is actually better than
Mac Jones at.
Speaker 7 (23:55):
This point about that, Yes, sir, our coaches, uh uh
come back into the league. When he went to the
football barn where he was supposed to have his Vince
Lombardi epiphany. The only thing that's common theme to me
in the barnes, I've been in his manure and rattlesnakes.
(24:16):
So I mean it's.
Speaker 1 (24:17):
Just he definitely brought the manure in this game. All right, well, Chat,
thank you. Thank your wife for putting up with the show.
I thank her so thank you. We will move on,
but I appreciate it.
Speaker 7 (24:28):
Yes, sir, it's a joy to speak to you. Y'all
bring so much joy to our household. You know what,
if we didn't have you to look forward to, we
enjoy your show more than all the other sports broadcasts combined.
Speaker 1 (24:40):
Take that. That's a ringing endorsement right there.
Speaker 7 (24:45):
I mean, what would life be if we didn't have
Big Ben Mallar coming. I mean that's what we.
Speaker 1 (24:50):
Look that's right. I thank you. You're buttering my biscuits.
I thank you. I gotta go. I appreciate it. Wow,
we should play that Jolly Goodfellow song for Chat. It
seems like a proper time to play the Jolly Good
Fellow song from our friend in the Bay Area. He's
a jolly good fellow. We don't have it. Oh, come on,
you gotta turn that stuff around. All right, Let's get
(25:11):
you caught up on everything going on in the overnight.
Wouldn't that have been a perfect time to play that
the Jolly Goodfellow.
Speaker 6 (25:17):
So it would have been a good time.
Speaker 1 (25:21):
I guess it's you know, we use a real the
reel machine and a razor blade edit all the sound here,
So let's get you caught up on everything going on.
And here he is games of note Garcia.
Speaker 6 (25:32):
Yeah, don't make me feel old by reminding me that
I did that.
Speaker 1 (25:36):
I did learned. I got into the radio business just
before they switched to digital, and I learned how to
do editing on a real the reel machine, which is
it's kind of like telling somebody you went to work
on a horse. You know, he's ridiculous.
Speaker 9 (25:55):
So he's a jolly good fello. For he's a jolly
good fello. For he's a jolly get parallel with no one.
Speaker 10 (26:03):
Can to I Sam's mastered late Audio Sam's It takes
a second, you know, I gotta He's on IOWA Island.
Speaker 1 (26:14):
Sam's on a delay, not Iowa time. Yes, Iowa offense
on delay.
Speaker 3 (26:20):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (26:20):
Now you know I gotta cut it, I gotta reel
it together, and I gotta stitch it together. You know
the moment had passed an audio tape, not for Iowa.
Speaker 6 (26:27):

Speaker 8 (27:55):
Excellent? There you go.
Speaker 1 (27:59):
Oh, thank you. I appreciate that. I'd like to thank
NBC Sports Bay Area for playing that every two hours.
Good job by them. A lot of airtime, a lot
of airtime.
Speaker 10 (28:10):
I love that.
Speaker 1 (28:11):
It was great. Yeah, before the pregame, after before the
I saw yes, yeah exactly. It was on before the
Giants game, after the Giants game. Outstanding. Good job by
whoever's programming NBC Sports Bay Area.
Speaker 6 (28:23):
Good job by that.
Speaker 8 (28:24):
Yes, I was happy to see that. And you have
interesting chemistry with Tom And what did you say? He
left to wear a Benny T shirt if he loses.
I thought that was cute.
Speaker 1 (28:36):
That's right, he did it well. He was wearing the
very ugly Penny shirt on this week's edition of Benny
Versus the Penny. But yeah, I told him. And if
I'm gonna win and I am in the running here,
I got a couple of games tonight and if it
goes my way, then I'll win, and then he's gonna
have to wear my shirt.
Speaker 8 (28:51):
Yeah. I really get a kick out of the two
of you together. So yeah, keep up the good work.
And uh well, speaking of keeping up the good work,
not so sure about Jimmy g We got h remember
second nineteen ninety one and it was a couple of
touchdowns but three interceptions and.
Speaker 1 (29:13):
Leads the NFL in interceptions. Now Jimmy Garoppolo the very top.
Speaker 8 (29:17):
Oh wow, that's a dubious distinction. And you know, Scorpios,
he didn't speak to the media after, so, you know,
with all due respect to Koop, he's one of my
favorite scorpios. Scorpios can be secretive and kind of mysterious.
So it was interesting. I mean obviously, like you said,
he said he had a concussion, and you know, we're
(29:37):
not supposed to question that.
Speaker 1 (29:39):
You can't know the media is you're not in the media.
You can question wherever. The teams are not supposed to question, right,
you know, I don't want to face the media, you know, right.
Speaker 8 (29:53):
We have our doubts. Yeah, so yeah, So be that
as it may. You know, he does have that quality
about him, and he does continue to be injury prone,
so it'll be interesting to see what transpires. But again,
Scorpio has that private, mysterious, hidden, deep, complex kind of
(30:14):
psychological power thing going, so it's very hard to figure
them out. So be it as it may, you know,
the truth will be told.
Speaker 1 (30:24):
Now more importantly, what's the salt ratio? How much salt
do we put in there? Because they give you that
big bag of epsom salt, So how much do you
put in the top? Is it a finite a mountain here?
I never know how much to put in.
Speaker 8 (30:36):
Oh yeah, I know, I'm glad here you're taking them.
I use a scoop, so I would say about half
of the scoop, so several tablespoons like half a.
Speaker 1 (30:46):
Scoop, like the only one half a scoop, that's it.
Speaker 8 (30:49):
Yeah, but it's a big scoop.
Speaker 1 (30:51):
It's a big school maybe.
Speaker 8 (30:52):
Five all right.
Speaker 1 (30:55):
And now do you wait till the water's already in
or do you put it in there at the beginning
and then the water fall on top of Oh?
Speaker 8 (31:01):
You put it in the water. And then I put
some oatmeal baths in because sometimes too much epsom salt
can dry the skin. And that said, a little lavender
oil goes a long way, So it's really quite a spa.
Speaker 1 (31:18):
That's right. You write a book about that. You write
a story about that for the athletic. All right, well, Andrew,
I enjoy your bath. Thank you, thank you.
Speaker 8 (31:26):
I love that music.
Speaker 1 (31:27):
There she goes right into the bath. Little known fact.
Speaker 6 (31:32):
You can also fertilize your garden with epsom salt.
Speaker 1 (31:36):
How about that? That's good, Iowa knowledge. That's what you
bring to the show. Do you want to play that
jolly good fellow again? You want to know? You don't
want to? I put it away. You put it away, Okay,
you put it away, Eddie.
Speaker 5 (31:52):
Now that he's got the job full time, is utt.
Speaker 6 (31:56):
A little bit here?
Speaker 1 (31:57):
You got the gig. You don't need any.
Speaker 6 (31:59):
More sense enough to impress anymore.
Speaker 1 (32:01):
Just like the Iowa Hawkeys offense not good anyway. It
is the Ben Malors show we need here.
Speaker 9 (32:12):
He's a jolly for he's a jolly wish No one can.

in the world of sports, this one rather obvious. The
Denver football team gave up seventy points to Miami. Sean Peyton,
(34:10):
who had so many good defensive teams in New Orleans
as the head coach there, and usually around Week three
is when his teams would kick into gear, but the
Broncos lost by fifty points. The Dolphins put up seven
hundred and twenty six yards of offense, thirty first downs,
ten touchdowns. So what advice do you have to Sean Peyton,
(34:32):
head coach of the Denver football team. You're live on

Speaker 1 (37:10):
You suck Line one, you blow screw Line one. I
hate long one. Bad line one.
Hello and welcome. It's our name Birth three. We start
out in South Florida. A historical effort by the Miami
football team. Does the Dolphins scoring seventy points say more
about the Miami offense or the Denver defense? Also, Sean
(00:20):
Payton says he's at a loss for words. What does
that even mean? How much blame? We'll talk about some
of the other stories as well. How much blame does
Ron Rivera get for the Commanders being roasted by the
Bills on a rainy day in Landover, Maryland? And how
did the Saints, with supposedly a pretty good defense allow
the Packers to come back? Does Derek Carr's absence derail
(00:44):
know Leans. We'll talk about all of those angles and
many many more right now here. It is our number three.
Sometimes you are the fire hydrant, Sometimes you are the
dog the Denver NACo's got a life lesson about that? Well.
Come in the beginning of another hour of the Ben
(01:09):
Maler Show. We are in the air everywhere, serving up
a word buffet as we are bare bones coast to coast,
border the border and beyond on the mast and imposingly
powerful microphones of fsre ammating live from the song as

our lead this hour, coming from South Florida. And oh
(01:55):
what a story. It is the story that people chatting
about all day on Sunday and again throughout at the
beginning of the week. Here did you see what happened
in that Dolphin game? Did you hear about that? No,
you missed it. You were not paying attention. Must ride
with you. Shame on you. A historical performance on both
the side of Denver and the side of Miami as
(02:18):
the running back duo of Raheem Mostart and Devon a
Chain ran wild. They combined for two hundred and eighty
five yards five rushing touchdowns on nine point two yards
per attempt. Remember that old line three yards and a
cloud of dust. How about nine point two yards in
(02:39):
a cloud of dust? And they added another ninety yards
and three touchdowns via eleven receptions as the Dolphins hung
a seventy burger the Miami Dolphins scored seventy points against
the Denver football team, who had all but twenty to
a tongue of by lower three hundred yards per us
(03:00):
passing four touchdowns. Miami improves to three and zero and
Denver drops to a dismal zero to three. The better
story clearly in the losing locker room. All of that
bravado of Sean Payton and all of the arrogance, all
the confidence that Sean Payton supposedly brought to the Denver
(03:22):
football team, and you go out and lose by fifty
points against the Dolphins. So let's discuss the question here.
Does this outcome, the Dolphins scoring seventy points say more
about how electrifying the Miami offense is or more about
how god awful the Denver defenses? And the arrow on
(03:47):
this one is clearly pointing towards the Broncos, and it's
not even close. Miami's got a fine offense, congratulations, But
this is all about the Broncos. That's where the story is.
I've got GQ guys, confectionery and warped, and we will
combine all of these things together and we are going
(04:08):
to make an updated resume, which is what Sean Payton
would be doing now if he was not given a
fully guaranteed contract for roughly twenty million dollars a year.
Otherwise he would be looking for work. They say, you know,
it's not you, it's us. We need to change. You're
out of here. Wow, you do not give up that
(04:30):
many points and that many yards if you're trying. Let's
start with that. And I've heard being around sports enough
over the years, and here's a lot in basketball when
a team loses by thirty or forty points, that you
don't lose by that many points if you're giving an
honest effort. You just don't. And in the NFL, you
(04:50):
don't lose by thirty plus points, in this case fifty
if you're putting a day's work in. The teams are
not separate. Even the the worst team in football and
the top team in football are not separated by fifty
points if they are both putting the effort in. That
is the reality of the NFL. You watch these games
(05:11):
by design, even the bad teams playing the good teams,
with few exceptions, are usually within a couple of scores.
Going to the fourth quarter on a given NFL Sunday,
the Dolphins putting up seven hundred and twenty six yards
of offense and thirty first downs ten touchdowns. These are
(05:32):
video game numbers. These is ridiculous. It is not possible
without an assist. And I hope the Dolphins gave a
game ball to every one of those gutless Denver Bronco
defensive players and they all got paid and the Broncos
got played. But there's a bigger issue here. The bigger
(05:53):
issue is Sean Payton. And this is clearly a team
that doesn't like Sean Payton, doesn't play for Sean Peyton.
And no matter what kind of coaching mumbo jumbo he
tosses out, it's not work, it's not worry. Let's take
a listen to Sean Payton here on his postgame Diet Tribe.
(06:18):
Here he said he just didn't know what to say.
He was totally zonkerd is what he was.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
Take a listen those next two days, we'll have a
lot to look at and discuss. Again. It's disappointing. I mean,
I'm got a loss for words because I've never been
in I've been on the other side of some games
like that, and then every once in a while on
this league, you get your butt whip, but this was
more than that.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
Peyton also talked about the defense a little bit. What defense,
There was no defense. Here's a Sean Payton on that.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
We got a look closely what we were doing. And
you know when someone runs the ball up and down
the field like those guys did and throw it up
and down the field, you know, it's not acceptable.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
Not acceptable, all right. So this is not his first barbecue,
Sean Payton, as he referenced in that particular SoundBite. But
they the Bronco roster right now. I don't know why
this is, but it's just the way it is. They
are filled with a bunch of what we call g
Q guys. You know what GQ guys is in sports
lingo game quitters, And the Broncos have a lot of
(07:23):
game quitters. They have guys that, you know, to the
naked eye, to the untrained eye, they look like they're trying,
but they're not really trying. Little effort, no tackling, matador
defense Olo o leo laole ol monodor. That's the Broncos
gutless football team. The Dolphins absolutely castrated the Broncos with
(07:44):
an assist by Denver. It took their will away from them,
and Peyton got paid to fix this. He talked all
the trash. He was going around, you know, had his
tail up and he was like a peacock with his
feathers out about how great his resume I was and
things were gonna be different, and nothing is different, nothing is.
(08:05):
In fact, it's actually worse. You know. He was goofing
on Nathaniel Hackett, and Nathaniel Hackett deserved to be goofed
on it. You know, these both things can be simultaneously true.
Hackett can be a stiff and Sean Payton can be
right to call out Hackett, and at the same time
Sean Payton can be a boob. All of these things
can be true, and they appear to be true. Now
(08:26):
more on the historical nature of the Denver Miami game,
but we're gonna turn the page briefly because we go
to Landover, Maryland where the Commander's quarterback, Sam Howe. Holy crap,
you see his numbers he had. He had his own
historical performance. He got lost in the shuffle because of
what happened in Miami. But Sam Howe ended up with
(08:48):
four interceptions and nine sacks. The NFL has not seen
that kind of stat line going back to the mid nineties,
been twenty eight eight years. Warren Moon was the last
quarterback to put up that kind of stat line in
the mid nineties. So how much of the blame does
Ron Rivera get for the Commanders being roasted by the
(09:11):
Buffalo Bills. Well, he's got to get the biggest slice
of the blame pie. With a wink and a nod
to Eric Bietemy, the game plan seemed to be out
of sorts. The weather was not particularly good, big storm
here bouncing was bouncing up the Eastern seaboard there on Sundays,
so you had a lot of inclement weather. And the
(09:34):
Washington football team, who had been to and oh granted
a marshmallow soft tow and oh as, Washington had to
come back beat Arizona and then they also beat Denver,
which doesn't impress you at all. But this game for
Washington was a placement test, and the Commanders don't measure
up on any possible level. They don't. You're at home,
(09:58):
You're playing a team that's more talented than you. Can
you compete? Can you hang around? The weather should be
in your favorite you would think the weather would be
in your favor, that the passing attack would not be
that great, so you're going to have to play a
grinded out style of football and all that. And Sam
Howe goes out there, he's only making his fourth start,
(10:19):
and my goodness, what an iesore by Sam Howe as
he opened up the old confection area there and served
up a poop Sunday with a nice big hunk of
pooh right on top of that poop Sunday there. Bonehead
throws just terrible. But ultimately this does come back to
the head coach, Ron Rivera, because as this was a
(10:42):
placement test and Washington ends up being put on the
short bus with Roberto driving the short bus or old
buddy Roberto. But here's the thing, right, Ron Rivera, his
team in zombie mode in this game, just two hundred
and thirty yards of offense, one of nine on three down.
The owner just spent six billion dollars to buy the
(11:04):
Washington football team. You think this is the kind of
performance that's going to inspire confidence to keep Ron river
or is this going to cause the owner Josh Harris
there to say I need to tidy things up and
say bye bye to Ron Rivera. He's a long shot
to keep the job anyway. But any any semblance of
(11:24):
hope here, you would think, is out the window. After this,
now final thought, Let's go to Green Bay where Jordan
Love he ran for a score and he tossed for
a touchdown late in the game, and the Green Bay
football team able to storm back from a seventeen to
nothing deficit and they get a one point win, eighteen
to seventeen over New Orleans. The better story in the
(11:48):
losing locker room. How did the Saints gag away a
three score lead, dominating shutting down the packer offense? How
did they allow this game to get away? How did
it happen? So the one thing that stands out here
is what was supposed to be the essence of the Saints.
(12:11):
I did the essence. The defense did not show up.
They were to quote a delicacy in Louisiana, Paul Boys
on defense. My god, they warped in the fourth quarter,
not even the second half, just the fourth quarter. Jordan Love,
who didn't do much anything for the first part of
(12:32):
the game, and then in the fourth quarter he had
one hundred and twenty six yards of offense, passing and
rushing for a touchdown.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
Packers usually analytics. They went with the analytics, and they
went for two, and they got the lead there. But
Jordan Love getting it done. Now the Saints have the
ultimate trump card of excuses. They'll say, hey, well, we
would have won, we could have won, we should have won.
But Derek Carr got hurt. So does Derek carr shoulder
(13:00):
injury derail the New Orleans season?
Speaker 1 (13:05):
And I'm saying no, we don't know how long Car
is gonna be out. The initial reports are rather optimistic
that car will only miss a limited amount of time,
but this is an unpopular opinion. Derek Carr's not very good.
He's not And Jameis Winston. That's a lateral move going
(13:26):
from Derek Carr to Jameis Winston. Winston's also not very good,
but he's about the same. Like, there'll be stretches where
Jameis Winston will look great and you'll say, Wow, that
guy's awesome, and he's the only thirty thirty guy in
the history of the NFL thirty touchdowns, thirty interceptions, and
then Winston will have some absolute brain farts where he
(13:46):
will just give the football a back to the opponent
multiple times and cause you to lose. But that's pretty
much what Derek Carr does. Derek Carr at stretches looks
really good and you say, this guy knows what he's doing.
And then for other stretches you're like, how did this
guy ever make it in the NFL? Shouldn't he be
selling cars somewhere? What is up with this? I don't
understand it. It is the Ben Mallard Show. If you'd
(14:08):
like to comment about any of the things we just
talked about, and then we talked about earlier in the
show that Dallas Cowboys lose to one of the least
talented teams in football, probably the least talented team in
the NFL. The Chicago Bears lost and are so bad.
They lost by thirty plus points to the Kansas City Chiefs.
The Bears are so bad? How about are they that
they are a home underdog to the Broncos. We talked
(14:29):
about this last hour, who just lost by fifty points?
That is stunning, stunning, stunning, stunning, stunning, stunning. Time Now
for the Mallard Riddle of day. By the way, you
can call up if you want. It's like a speakeasy
thing here. If you find the number calls up, well,
we'll chat with you. But the Mallord Riddle of the day.
And here it is Malar Riddle of the day, and
(14:50):
we go to former NFL receiver Chad Ocho Cinco Johnson
Chad Johnson, who recently disclosed that before his career in
professional football, he worked as a blank. Again, the Mallor
Riddle of the day, Chad Johnson disclosing recently that before
his pro football career he worked as a blank. That
(15:16):
is the Mallor riddle of the day. The answer, We'll
get to it. We'll do it next.
Speaker 4 (15:21):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Maller
Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific on

Join the curious world of the Ben Mallor Show online.
It's 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 manning
the phones, but he is more than just a call screener.
He is the liar, liar and the menace of the
Fox Sports Radio network. It's the Coop the Loop Justin
(15:52):
Cooper and he's at uh Bronco Fan and Alive from
the tire rack dot Com, Fox Sports Radio Studios.
Speaker 6 (16:03):
It's pen maalor.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
All Things football. You give us a few minutes, we'll
give you some football nonsense. But right now it is
time for the mallor riddle of the day. And here's
the malary of the day. Former NFL receiver Chad Johnson,
who went by Ocho Cinco for a few years, disclosed
that before his career in pro football, he worked as
(16:28):
a blank. That is the question. What is the answer,
And let's see does anyone know the answer? Late night
drug tester says Dick In Dayton's mandolin stringer is the answer?
Fercat says Adam Sandler's body double, A night of the
round from Asher, A mime from mister nice guy. Who
(16:50):
else do we have that's not a baseball player from
the nineteen seventies or eighties, Batch up by you. Chad
Ocho Singo was a babysitter guest by Freddie page Down,
a Spanish professor at a community college, very specific by
Frank Lingerie shop attendant guests by Ozzy Waz in Western
Australia and Alf the Alien opiner from Springfield, mass says
(17:13):
that Ocho worked as a civil servant as the answer
page down. Justin in Cincinnati says a hooker in Galveston,
Texas is the answer. Robin Minnesota says Chad Johnson worked
as a weatherman that can never get the forecast right
(17:33):
page down. Who else do we have? Bartender at the
Regal Beagle from Paul d Always good to get the
Regal Beagle in there? Who else do we have? Carnival
ride operator guests by Sean in Portland, Eke in Roseville,
Minnesota's probably the hardest job listed. Andy Furman's mailman, he says,
is the answer. Late night trug tester Calm down Eddie,
(17:55):
late night, late night drug test that says the only
thing stopping the Dolphins was in Kelsey's suite in Kansas City.
He says, having the Swifties follow the NFL bigger than
having her play the Super Bowl. That's a non sequitor, Eddie.
Do you have an answer, Eddie, please to the Mallord
riddle of the day.
Speaker 5 (18:13):
Yes, he had a john picking up corpses and then
but he picked up the wrong and then he got fired.
Speaker 1 (18:20):
Yeah, so he started calling overnight radio after that. No,
that's incorrect, the correct answer. Shout out Justin and Cincinnati.
Former NFL receiver Chad Ocho Cinco aka Chad Johnson recently
disclosing that before his career in professional football, he worked
as a male stripper name Twix. That's right. He was
an exotic dancer and his stage name was Twix. What
(18:47):
that's what he said? I don't know. He's lying. I
was Sam, did you ever go to a club and
see a stripper named Twix? No? He did not. All right,
I've not You've missed out on that. Okay, just check
the summer saying we should call X slash Twitter, we
should call it twix. What do you think about that?
Get the X incorporated in there. I don't care what
they call it the candy bar, right, I call it
(19:10):
whatever they want to call it. It doesn't it's just
so bad. It's, you know, whatever, you got a few money.
It's a few money. Elon's got a few money. You
can do whatever you want. You got a few money.
It's making the rest of us miserable. I'd like to
have that few money. I do the same thing. Now
here's a stat a factoid that sums up how incompetence.
Josh McDaniels is his coach for the Raiders, and yeah,
(19:30):
he does not color inside the lines. He colors outside
the lines. Now, the Raiders game against the Steelers last night,
which was a few hours before we came on the air.
The Raiders had the ball, fourth down and four from
their own eight yard line. They were down by eight points,
so a touchdown two point conversion ties it. There's a
couple of minutes left in the game, and Josh McDaniels
(19:51):
decided to kick a field goal since the two point
conversion was adopted, I just saw this. Since the two
point conversion was adopted back in the mid nineties, the
Las Vegas Raiders are the only team in the NFL
to attempt a field goal in the last three minutes
of the fourth quarter. Went down by exactly eight points
(20:11):
with less than five yards to go for a first
down or a touchdown. It had never happened before. Congratulations
to Josh McDaniels and the Raiders. Way to go outstanding.
Let's go to the phones and we'll say hello to
Let's say hello to Chad who is in Dallas what's
(20:32):
going on? Chad? Welcome, Hello, big Dan.
Speaker 7 (20:36):
Hi you Hey. I told my wife that if you
live next door, I would just do your yard for
free because of all the joy you bring to our household.
Speaker 1 (20:45):
But are you very kind? If you'd like, I can
arrange that. Are you good? Are you good at lawn work?
Speaker 8 (20:53):
Like?
Speaker 1 (20:53):
What's your specialty?
Speaker 7 (20:55):
I have about thirty different career fields I've worked in,
so I can get a lot.
Speaker 1 (20:59):
That's a lot like Fletch, that old actor, you know,
the old the movie there. You've done a lot of
different jobs there.
Speaker 7 (21:04):
Yeah. I told my dad earlier tonight you stole my thunder.
You mentioned the thing about toast with the cowboys, and
I told him, I said, remember dad, back in the seventies,
the local statehouses in Texas, if you ordered a t
bone with a baked potato, they it came complementary with
a basket of Texas toast. And yeah, and uh, our coach,
(21:31):
he calls this the Texas Coast Office.
Speaker 1 (21:35):
Oh yes, right, they yeah, they changed. It's not the
West Coast Office. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's right.
Speaker 7 (21:39):
Dallas blows anytime. They played down to the level of
their competition, and today they got their ass handed to them.
It's not Texas Coast, it's Texas toast off there.
Speaker 1 (21:51):
Yeah, that's what it certainly was. But that's hard. I mean,
that's hard. The Cowboys are so much more talented than
the Cardinals. Chad too, No, I I kind of anticipated this.
I was happy with the outcome, but I mean, the
Cardinals play hard. I'll give them that they're not supposed to,
but the Cowboys to be behind the entire game is fascinating.
Speaker 7 (22:11):
Well, remember when Romo was dating Jessica Simpson, we had
more of a stable offense. Do you think if Dack
managed to pull off the Taylor Swift date, if she
was in the box, that we would You know, we
could fare better for the course of the season. But
let me tell you what it's like being a Cowboy
fan for the last twenty seven years since Jimmy Johnson
got run out of town. It'd be like a rehab
(22:36):
that helps recovering addicts, and then they offer the graduates
of the rehab a job lead to the bartending academy
across the street. I mean, it's just ridiculous.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
But it's consistent. It's good for sports radio.
Speaker 6 (22:51):
Chah.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
Think of those of us that do sports radio. It's good, It's.
Speaker 6 (22:54):
Gonna be good.
Speaker 7 (22:55):
Yeah, You've got a lot of material with these clowns.
It's like The Young and the Restless, that soap opera
back in the eighties, which was just unlimited content. Yeah, sure,
over a coffee pot. But what do you think is
going to happen with the Patriots that are coming up
with Zeke on the other side of the ball.
Speaker 1 (23:17):
Oh, that's right, the great return of Zeke Elly, who
actually looked good against the Zeke actually looked pretty good
against the Jets. Shot.
Speaker 7 (23:23):
They've got San Francisco and then we've got the Chargers.
Speaker 1 (23:29):
Well, well, typically, I believe I'm a big believer in
the zig zag theory that you if you're a good
team you have a bad game, you're not gonna have
two bad games in a row. But Bill Belichick knows
a thing or two about defense, so you can mess
with Dak Prescott. I just don't know how the Patriots
are going to be able to score against the Cowboys.
But if Joshua Dobbs is able to score, then I
(23:49):
guess Mac Jones can put some points up. It doesn't
seem likely because I think Jobs is actually better than
Mac Jones at.
Speaker 7 (23:55):
This point about that, Yes, sir, our coaches, uh uh
come back into the league. When he went to the
football barn where he was supposed to have his Vince
Lombardi epiphany. The only thing that's common theme to me
in the barnes, I've been in his manure and rattlesnakes.
(24:16):
So I mean it's.
Speaker 1 (24:17):
Just he definitely brought the manure in this game. All right, well, Chat,
thank you. Thank your wife for putting up with the show.
I thank her so thank you. We will move on,
but I appreciate it.
Speaker 7 (24:28):
Yes, sir, it's a joy to speak to you. Y'all
bring so much joy to our household. You know what,
if we didn't have you to look forward to, we
enjoy your show more than all the other sports broadcasts combined.
Speaker 1 (24:40):
Take that. That's a ringing endorsement right there.
Speaker 7 (24:45):
I mean, what would life be if we didn't have
Big Ben Mallar coming. I mean that's what we.
Speaker 1 (24:50):
Look that's right. I thank you. You're buttering my biscuits.
I thank you. I gotta go. I appreciate it. Wow,
we should play that Jolly Goodfellow song for Chat. It
seems like a proper time to play the Jolly Good
Fellow song from our friend in the Bay Area. He's
a jolly good fellow. We don't have it. Oh, come on,
you gotta turn that stuff around. All right, Let's get
(25:11):
you caught up on everything going on in the overnight.
Wouldn't that have been a perfect time to play that
the Jolly Goodfellow.
Speaker 6 (25:17):
So it would have been a good time.
Speaker 1 (25:21):
I guess it's you know, we use a real the
reel machine and a razor blade edit all the sound here,
So let's get you caught up on everything going on.
And here he is games of note Garcia.
Speaker 6 (25:32):
Yeah, don't make me feel old by reminding me that
I did that.
Speaker 1 (25:36):
I did learned. I got into the radio business just
before they switched to digital, and I learned how to
do editing on a real the reel machine, which is
it's kind of like telling somebody you went to work
on a horse. You know, he's ridiculous.
Speaker 9 (25:55):
So he's a jolly good fello. For he's a jolly
good fello. For he's a jolly get parallel with no one.
Speaker 10 (26:03):
Can to I Sam's mastered late Audio Sam's It takes
a second, you know, I gotta He's on IOWA Island.
Speaker 1 (26:14):
Sam's on a delay, not Iowa time. Yes, Iowa offense
on delay.
Speaker 3 (26:20):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (26:20):
Now you know I gotta cut it, I gotta reel
it together, and I gotta stitch it together. You know
the moment had passed an audio tape, not for Iowa.
Speaker 6 (26:27):
At least I got it.
Speaker 7 (26:29):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (26:30):
Yeah, maybe be sure to catch live editions of The
Ben Meller Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific.
Speaker 11 (26:37):

Of course, you know us as the host of the
number one rated show and all the sports talks, the
Paully and Tony Fusco Show. Now, the suits at Fox
Sports Radio gave us this ad time because they wanted
us to tell you how.
Speaker 1 (26:52):
Great our show is.
Speaker 4 (26:53):
Why.
Speaker 11 (26:54):
Yeah, instead of us doing that, let's just let our
millions of fans do the talking.
Speaker 4 (26:59):
Yeah, played it. Hey, you don't know crap about own
this CRAPAOAOA. That's the wrong tape, wrong tape. Just forget that.
Speaker 11 (27:08):
Look, listen to the Paully Tony Pusco Show on the
iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts.
Speaker 1 (27:16):
Yeah, we got back back to the phones. We go
now to the Bay Area. She's got her start chart

Speaker 8 (27:45):
Perfect timing. I just get ahead, and how are you okay?
Speaker 1 (27:50):
All right? We got you just before the bath I
got you all right, very good. What's on your mind there, Andrey?
What do you have for before I forget?
Speaker 8 (27:55):
Excellent? There you go.
Speaker 1 (27:59):
Oh, thank you. I appreciate that. I'd like to thank
NBC Sports Bay Area for playing that every two hours.
Good job by them. A lot of airtime, a lot
of airtime.
Speaker 10 (28:10):
I love that.
Speaker 1 (28:11):
It was great. Yeah, before the pregame, after before the
I saw yes, yeah exactly. It was on before the
Giants game, after the Giants game. Outstanding. Good job by
whoever's programming NBC Sports Bay Area.
Speaker 6 (28:23):
Good job by that.
Speaker 8 (28:24):
Yes, I was happy to see that. And you have
interesting chemistry with Tom And what did you say? He
left to wear a Benny T shirt if he loses.
I thought that was cute.
Speaker 1 (28:36):
That's right, he did it well. He was wearing the
very ugly Penny shirt on this week's edition of Benny
Versus the Penny. But yeah, I told him. And if
I'm gonna win and I am in the running here,
I got a couple of games tonight and if it
goes my way, then I'll win, and then he's gonna
have to wear my shirt.
Speaker 8 (28:51):
Yeah. I really get a kick out of the two
of you together. So yeah, keep up the good work.
And uh well, speaking of keeping up the good work,
not so sure about Jimmy g We got h remember
second nineteen ninety one and it was a couple of
touchdowns but three interceptions and.
Speaker 1 (29:13):
Leads the NFL in interceptions. Now Jimmy Garoppolo the very top.
Speaker 8 (29:17):
Oh wow, that's a dubious distinction. And you know, Scorpios,
he didn't speak to the media after, so, you know,
with all due respect to Koop, he's one of my
favorite scorpios. Scorpios can be secretive and kind of mysterious.
So it was interesting. I mean obviously, like you said,
he said he had a concussion, and you know, we're
(29:37):
not supposed to question that.
Speaker 1 (29:39):
You can't know the media is you're not in the media.
You can question wherever. The teams are not supposed to question, right,
you know, I don't want to face the media, you know, right.
Speaker 8 (29:53):
We have our doubts. Yeah, so yeah, So be that
as it may. You know, he does have that quality
about him, and he does continue to be injury prone,
so it'll be interesting to see what transpires. But again,
Scorpio has that private, mysterious, hidden, deep, complex kind of
(30:14):
psychological power thing going, so it's very hard to figure
them out. So be it as it may, you know,
the truth will be told.
Speaker 1 (30:24):
Now more importantly, what's the salt ratio? How much salt
do we put in there? Because they give you that
big bag of epsom salt, So how much do you
put in the top? Is it a finite a mountain here?
I never know how much to put in.
Speaker 8 (30:36):
Oh yeah, I know, I'm glad here you're taking them.
I use a scoop, so I would say about half
of the scoop, so several tablespoons like half a.
Speaker 1 (30:46):
Scoop, like the only one half a scoop, that's it.
Speaker 8 (30:49):
Yeah, but it's a big scoop.
Speaker 1 (30:51):
It's a big school maybe.
Speaker 8 (30:52):
Five all right.
Speaker 1 (30:55):
And now do you wait till the water's already in
or do you put it in there at the beginning
and then the water fall on top of Oh?
Speaker 8 (31:01):
You put it in the water. And then I put
some oatmeal baths in because sometimes too much epsom salt
can dry the skin. And that said, a little lavender
oil goes a long way, So it's really quite a spa.
Speaker 1 (31:18):
That's right. You write a book about that. You write
a story about that for the athletic. All right, well, Andrew,
I enjoy your bath. Thank you, thank you.
Speaker 8 (31:26):
I love that music.
Speaker 1 (31:27):
There she goes right into the bath. Little known fact.
Speaker 6 (31:32):
You can also fertilize your garden with epsom salt.
Speaker 1 (31:36):
How about that? That's good, Iowa knowledge. That's what you
bring to the show. Do you want to play that
jolly good fellow again? You want to know? You don't
want to? I put it away. You put it away, Okay,
you put it away, Eddie.
Speaker 5 (31:52):
Now that he's got the job full time, is utt.
Speaker 6 (31:56):
A little bit here?
Speaker 1 (31:57):
You got the gig. You don't need any.
Speaker 6 (31:59):
More sense enough to impress anymore.
Speaker 1 (32:01):
Just like the Iowa Hawkeys offense not good anyway. It
is the Ben Malors show we need here.
Speaker 9 (32:12):
He's a jolly for he's a jolly wish No one can.
Speaker 6 (32:18):
The Iowa offense sucks.
Speaker 1 (32:22):
You want to play it again or you're.
Speaker 6 (32:24):
Good, you'll play one another seconds.
Speaker 1 (32:27):
You'll play right before I I turned the mic off.
He'll play it right right. I'm about to, you know,
hit the alight h for.
