Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello and welcome. It's our numb berth three, our three
ready to go, And what better topic of conversation than
Dion Sanders. Now, Dion has gone on the record saying
that he is not not thinking about jumping ship and
riding a buffalo to Texas to take over the Texas
A and M job. But are they thinking about him
(00:23):
at Texas A and M And what's that all about? Also,
tell me the latest on Chip Kelly as he's on
the hot seat at UCLA. How's his career coaching arc
looking at this point? And how good a job is
that UCLA gig? And now that the judge has ruled,
how should Oregon State and Washington State handle being the
(00:44):
PAC twelve orphans the last two standing officially? We'll talk
about that and more right now here. It is our
number three. Is it a prime move? Well? Gome In
beginning of another hour of the Ben Mahlor Show.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
We are in the air everywhere with bull dust as
we are the fresh take maker coast Duck coast border
to borter In beyond all the mast and wicked powerful
microphones of fsr AMM nating live from the house, the boisterous,
(01:27):
rowdy Roughhouse we are broadcasting live from the tyrack dot
com studios.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
Tyraq dot com will help you I get there and
unmatch selection, fast free shipping, free road hazard protection and
over ten thousand recommended installers. Tyer rack dot com the
Way tire buying shoeb in our lead this hour the
(01:53):
rare and appropriate college football malamalog. Now, I am not
going to break down the weekly update on who the
top teams are according to the College Football Committee and
all that. I don't find that all that interesting. Maybe
I'm a bad talk show host. I don't obsess over that.
(02:13):
Maybe you do. That's fine, I don't. Georgia has moved
back up, but I'm more interested in the other side dishes.
If you will headline headline from Boulder, Colorado? Could it
be one and done for coach Prime say it ain't
(02:34):
so well if you've heard the latest scuttle But depends
on who you believe. The Colorado head coach Deon Sanders,
attempting to distance himself from the very widespread speculation that
Dion is being recruited to come to Texas. A and
(02:54):
M big money job is open. Jimbo got paid forever
money to go away. Well, Dion was asked about this,
and here's what he said. He said, quote, I want
to win a game, he said. He told the assembled media.
You think I sit down and think about that kind
(03:15):
of stuff, Come on, he said, I'm good now. Sanders
also issued a prepared statement via social media in that
he pointed out that his mamou, his sister, his dog,
his daughter, and his three sons are all in Colorado.
(03:35):
He said that he gets his mail in that state,
and he pays his taxes in Colorado. So let us
it's Dion Sander statement. End the Texas and M noise?
Does it end the noise? And the answer is N
(03:55):
plus zero equos. That's right. No, no, no no. So
I've got WC. Fields, liberty, and speed dating. We will
combine these things together and we are going to make
a shoe string budget, which is what Colorado has in
(04:15):
comparison to Texas, A and M. They have a shoe
string budget. That is why this story still has legs.
So deon Sanders Hot Commodity Colorado is the wheels have
fallen off as the season has gone on for the Buffalo,
but he's still got the rasmatask. He's still good television
he's still in demand. Television ratings are great, and many
(04:39):
national pundits who are forced in the month of November,
usually late November, to talk about the coaching carousel, they
can only name five or ten coaches. So if you
have a segment on a TV show and you have
to come up with a coaching candidate for Texas, A
and M, and you only know five to ten coaches,
(05:02):
you're going to name one of the five to ten
coaches that you know. And Deon Sanders is on that
short list. And as much as he's denied it, and
I would agree it's not a good fit, it's not.
But the denial is worthless. I'm old enough to remember
when Nick Saban told the media in Miami that he
(05:23):
was not going to be the head football coach at Alabama.
I remember that, and then a couple days later got
on a private flight to Tuscaloosa, never to be heard
from again in South Florida. But the main reason that
denials from Dion Sanders and others, you take these with
a grain of salt. I'll tell you why. W. C.
(05:44):
Field said it best never give a sucker an even break.
It's in the DNA of coaches they will look you
right in the eye. They'll look you right in the eye,
and they're gonna lie right to your face. They're gonna
lie to you right to your face. What they're gonna
do all the A and M gig is a golden
hammer job. The timing is not particularly great for Dion.
(06:05):
He's got to do one more year in Boulder, and
that would be the greatest path to follow if you
look at the map. His kids then leave for the NFL,
and then he leaves for the NFL. So the possibility
now Dion said, I don't want to coach in the NFL,
blah blah blah blah blah blah. But again, coaches lie
all the time. They never give a sucker and even break.
(06:25):
So the fact that he said that is irrelevant. And
the idea that he could take the Falcon job, they're
gonna pull Ox Arthur Smith in Atlanta. See the headline
Dion Sanders saves the Falcons and he gets like two
percent of all lumber sales at home depot to coach
the Falcons. Now. Secondly, headline from the coaching carousel, A
(06:47):
non Wizard of Westwood department, non Wizard of Westwood department.
We have learned that you see, hell, hey, those cutting
little bruins are very likely to fire. There wrotund coach
Chip Kelly, proving it again the power of Bill Plashk.
Bill Plashky the other day said that UCLA has to
(07:12):
fire Chip Kelly. And it's a shocking that Bill. And
I know Bill and all that I disagree with most
things he says, but it's shocking that he still has
that kind of power when nobody is reading the La Times,
nobody is reading that newspaper, but he still has enough
juice among the sports people. And I guess you could
(07:33):
argue that the alumni, the powerful boosters at UCLA, his
opinion still matters. So with that and the repoort is
barring an upset over USC and that'll just push off
the inevitable. It'll just push off the inevitable and chips out.
So tell me about how Chip Kelly's career coaching arch
is looking. So Chip is a testimonial to something that
(07:57):
we've said a lot over the years on this show
that it's the man who shot liberty balance. Yeah, that's
the thing. When the legend becomes the fact, you go
with the legend and chip Kelly made his legend with
the Ducks. Quack quack quack quack quack. When the legend
becomes the fact, you go with the legend and going
(08:18):
all the way back many many years to when he
was Oregon and they were the most exciting team, the
greatest show on turf, the Oregon Ducks. There. What an
amazing offense they had. It was unlike anything anyone had
ever seen before. And now everyone's running that same style
of love is. But because of that, chip Kelly's reputation
has preceded him and he is known for that fast
(08:41):
paced offense, the supposed innovative play calling. The reality is,
since he left Oregon, he's been stinky, he's been flatulence.
Since leaving Eugene, chip Kelly has coached the NFL's Philadelphia Eagles,
the forty nine Ers, and UCLA. And in the time
(09:05):
he has coached at these other institutions of either semi
pro football, which UCLA is, or pro football, chip Kelly
has a four to eighty one winning percentage. And what
about that high power UCLA offense. Well, UCLA this season
they're forty first, not even in the top forty forty
first in total offense, behind such offensive powers as South
(09:27):
Alabama and Toledo and Ucla. Speaking of Toledo, the last
great coach Uclia had was Bob Toledo a million years ago.
But UCLA is eighty fifth in scoring offense behind perdub
I'm sick and tired of losing to Purdue in the
scoring offense, as the late Bobby Knight would say. Also,
Bowling Green, the Great Bowling Green, has a better offense
(09:51):
this year than UCLA, and Chip Kelly has been just
terrible against good teams. He's won a fair amount of games.
He's thirty three and thirty three UCLA coach, which has
plup that around. It's the sign of the devil. But
how good a job is the UCLA job? It's a
I have it in the shadows departments. In the shadows,
it pays pretty well, not great, but pays pretty well.
(10:13):
You get to live in La go to the beach
all the time. The problems are headed to the Big ten,
and you're gonna be stuck in the middle. Stuck in
the middle. You don't want to be stuck in the
mid and that's where Ucla inevitably will end up in
the Big ten. They'll win a couple of games in
the Big Ten, they'll lose to some teams they shouldn't
lose to, and anytime they play a cold weather game
late in the year. I mean that the Bruins over
(10:34):
the years have always struggled in places like Seattle and Eugene, Oregon,
in places like that. Can you imagine when they're heading
into Ohio or Michigan or Iowa in the winter. Good
luck that will go well, but that will really go well?
All right? Final fick headline, Speaking of the PAC twelve,
what's left of it? Headline from the courtroom Whitman County.
(10:56):
We're told that's in Washington, Whitman County. A superior court
judge there has granted the Washington State Cougars and Oregon
State Beaver's request they file some legal papers for a
preliminary injunction. Now, what does that mean in Layman's terms?
It means that those two schools will be the lone
(11:16):
governing body of the PAC twelve in terms of voting members.
So even though it's the PAC twelve, that decision was
in response to a lawsuit. There's a lot of legal
mumbo jumble. We don't need to get in all that.
But the PAC twelve board can invite, the Board of
two can invite the other ten members to future meetings.
They are all allowed to take in meetings and make suggestions. However,
(11:38):
the only schools that have voting power are Washington State
and Oregon State. So how should Oregon State and Wazoo
handle being packed twelve orphans? So this is all about
the light switch, which is will the last school left
in the PAC twelve please turn out the lights when
you're leaving? But gone is and Stanford. Next year they're
(12:01):
going to the Atlantic Coast Conference. Because when you think
of the Atlantic Coast Conference, you think of Northern California, Utah, Arizona,
Arizona State, and Colorado are all going to the Big twelve.
And then you've got USC UCLA in the Big ten
along with Washington and Oregon. So that means that the
(12:22):
Beavers and the Cougars are coming. The cougars are coming.
They need to go speed dating. Now. Here's why. They
have to either find ten schools willing to leave their
conference and fill in the blank spots, or they have
to sell the PAC twelve name. And I don't even
(12:43):
know who owns the PAC twelve name, but they have
to sell it and convince the Mountain West Conference, for example,
instead of being called the Mountain West, We're just gonna
call you the PAC twelve and we'll add We'll move
some teams around, but we'll add Oregon State and Washington
State because it makes some logical sense from a naming
(13:05):
branding standpoint. The PAC twelve name does have some cachet,
certainly has more cachet than the Mountains, not enough to
save the conference from dying, but UNLV, San Diego State,
Fresno State, schools like that put them in that what
would be the newly imagined PAC twelve. It is the
Ben Malor Show. If you would like to comment on

Speaker 1 (16:06):
Pressing on all night long. We go thank you, thank
you thinking at the Iowa Minute coming up later this hour,
the greatest thirty six minutes in all of overnight talk radio.
Get the grain prices, you get the soybeans, pork bellies,
all that, But time now for the mallor riddle of
(16:26):
the day. And here it is Detroit Lyons head coach
Dan Campbell, quite the character, says, he tells certain family
members to blank before some games. That is the mallor
riddle of the day. Does anyone know the answer? We'll
go to the calls in a minute. Fudgie in Boston,
says Dan Campbell recommends that his family members enjoy three
(16:50):
servings of fried kneecaps. Okay, what else do we have?
Page down? To lock the door and not answer it
for anyone, not even himself, Freddy says. Dan Campbell tells
his family to watch Benny Versus the Penny to see
the picks. That's a great advice from Dan Campbell. Every
one should do that before watching the NFL games. Who
(17:13):
says no? Alf the alien opiner says. He tells them
to do some online shopping for a cat hat. Wow,
that's quite the quite the infomercial item you found there, Alfa,
Who else do we have page down? Page down? He says,
smash their ear with the UFC title belt, just like
(17:33):
John Jones did to Stevie. Oh, who else do we
have page down. Scott and Rhode Island says, to get
naked and blank blank, that's his answer. Rory says he
tells them if the Lions lose, they have to drink
water from Flint, Michigan. Wow, shots shots fired there. Eke says,
(17:54):
shower with Irish spring soap. That's the way to do
I you pray to do it. Sean also said watch
Benny versus the petty double Ow Mexican says, to smoke
a joint, that's his answer. Robin Minnesota says test for
colon cancer. Take a dump guessed by courtesy Flusher page
down a matth. The Warrior Raider fan says. Dan Campbell
(18:15):
tells some family members to wear Sean Payton's grandma glasses
before certain gives you those are not good looking glasses.
I mean I don't have good looking glasses, but those
are not good looking glasses. Joe and Okanawa says. He
tells Dan Campbell his family to download listen to the
Malard podcast for inspiration. For inspiration, no stradinas, says Campbell says,
(18:36):
lay the points chip in the cue says, pray a
whole lot. Kyle got it right, obviously cheating, Eddie, do
you have an answer to the mallor riddle of the day?
Dan Campbell, Lions coach, says he tells some family members
to blank before certain games.
Speaker 5 (18:53):
Avoid the Iowa minute, avoid.
Speaker 1 (18:55):
The Iowa min. It all costs sound coaching advice, but
unfortunately that is incorrect. The correct answer is to wear
a diaper. He tells some family members to wear a
diaper before a game. Now, Eddie, you go to these games.
Do you ever wear a diaper when you go to
these games at all?
Speaker 6 (19:14):
Do not?
Speaker 1 (19:15):
You did not? And what do you think of people
that would wear a diaper to prevent having to go
to the bathroom. That seems like a very extreme measure. Uh,
the comfort would not be there. There's a lot of
smell that would also not be good. I would think, right.
Speaker 5 (19:29):
Yeah, I would advise them to get a life.
Speaker 1 (19:32):
Yeah, I would think you want to hold off on
the diapers as long as you can, because if you
live long enough, if you're lucky enough to live a
long time, you're eventually going to need yes, so try
to try to avoid it.
Speaker 5 (19:45):
So yeah, anyway, there are commercials, I mean I understand
is it because of the Lions football so exciting you're
not gonna be able to hold your your bodily saw him.
Speaker 1 (19:56):
You were at the Charge your Alliance games.
Speaker 5 (19:58):
It was an exciting game, But I never I thought
I was, oh my god, I'm gonna crap my pants.
Speaker 7 (20:02):
Maybe it's like there's so much scoring back and forth
that like you're gonna miss something.
Speaker 8 (20:06):
There's don't even go to the bathroom.
Speaker 5 (20:09):
There's also a pause button on your TV.
Speaker 4 (20:10):
You know.
Speaker 1 (20:11):
The other thing I've noticed that I don't think a
lot of people notice is when I used to just
used to surprise me back in the day when the
announcers would get the call right like, wow, how did
he know that call? But usually when there's a penalty,
like right away everyone in the stadium, if you if
you're watching the right official, you know exactly who the
penalty is on and likely what it is. But yet
(20:31):
on television, they they often make it very dramatic. Are
gonna wait for the officials to sort this out? And
very often do they not. Once they throw the flag
and they decide there's a penalty, they very rarely take
it back. You know what I'm saying. You're feeling me
on that, Sure, let's go to Keg drinking Steve. Who
is next? Hello, Keg drinking Steve.
Speaker 9 (21:03):
Let me say, you, man, you're the number one professional
player hater sports radio. What what what you got against
Aaron Rodgers? He's a manly the old man you should?
Speaker 1 (21:18):
What what if I said? I have I even mentioned
Aaron Rodgers name on the show. I don't recall mentioning
the name.
Speaker 9 (21:25):
Luke warm about his great comeback. He's not.
Speaker 4 (21:29):
He's not.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
He's not. If he held take a breath, you drunk, listen,
if he had listen to me all right, if he
had the injury that he said he had, if he
if he said the correct injury, there is no way
he comes back and plays this season.
Speaker 9 (21:48):
No way you should. You're like becoming the old man
of the law.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
Why why could tell my old man on the lawn?
Speaker 9 (21:57):
Why what couldn't you be happy for? What can't you mean?
Speaker 1 (22:01):
Because he's pulling everyone's shane and it's dumb people that
believe he's going to come back. Anybody with any common
sense says, if Aaron Rodgers had the injury that we
all think he had, right, if he had that, actually
he's not going to play this season. It's a six
month minimum rehab. It's not three months. It's six months.
That's it, and usually it's a lot longer than that.
Speaker 9 (22:24):
Just put him out there, man, if you're if you're
in the yeah, I agree.
Speaker 1 (22:29):
Put him out of it. Put him in, put him
in a wheelchair, have him run around and make sure
it's an electric wheelchair. And you can put the Jets logo. No,
you put the Jets logo on it, and that's good.
You're good to go.
Speaker 9 (22:40):
See. I don't understand why you gotta. You know, he's
gonna set a record for the greatest comeback for this
injury ever. You need to appreciate him, you need he's
a hero.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
I can ask a hero. Yes, he's a patriot. They
should have it. They should have a day for Aaron
where we all get a day off from work to
celebrate air and lodge.
Speaker 10 (23:02):
Good.
Speaker 9 (23:03):
Let me tell you that he's looking. He's a good
looking man. He's a Hey. I think you're threatened by
he's such a good looking guy.
Speaker 1 (23:14):
You know, hey, I am inciminated by his his masculine
good looks, his debonair approach to life. I cannot handle that.
Speaker 9 (23:23):
Oh man, I think that there's got something to do
with that? Why you hate all these good looking players?
You know?
Speaker 1 (23:30):
Hey, I only like I only like the ugly players.
I don't not like anyone who's charismatic.
Speaker 9 (23:36):
And I heard you. Did you hear this girl from
the Doctor Phil Show made eighteen million in one month?
Then a man, Barbie Man, she's making eight hundred thousand
dollars a month, not only fans man.
Speaker 1 (23:52):
Yeah, that's right, because she sells a product that has
always and will always have a market. What she's selling TNA,
people have stayed for TNA. That's undefeated.
Speaker 9 (24:08):
What Aaron Rodgers sells hope and America. And you hate
hope you.
Speaker 1 (24:17):
I know, I do know. I hate all hope porn and.
Speaker 9 (24:20):
You love porn. You don't love hope, and you don't
love America. You love porn.
Speaker 1 (24:26):
Yes, I'm looking at some right now. Yes, because your
call is boring?
Speaker 10 (24:31):
You love?
Speaker 1 (24:32):
So all right, I go away.
Speaker 3 (24:35):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Meller
Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific.
Speaker 5 (24:41):
This note from the World of Hockey. UH British police
arrested Matt Petgrave. He is the player who skate cut
the throats of former Pittsburgh Penguins player Adam Johnson in
an English League game over there. He's been charged with manslaughter.
This is this is a great name to Detective Chief
Superintendent Beck's Horsefall of the South Yorkshire Police Department told
(25:05):
the BBC Fall quote, We've been carrying out an extensive
inquiries to piece together the events that led to the
loss of Adam and these unprecedented circumstances. We've been speaking
to highly specialized experts in their field to assistance and
inquiries and continue to work closely with the Health and
Safety Department of Sheffield City Council, which is supporting our
ongoing investigation.
Speaker 8 (25:25):
End quote.
Speaker 5 (25:25):
If you don't remember, Adam Johnson died on October the
twenty eighth after he was hitting the throat by Matt
Petgraves skate and so he's been charged with manslaughter.
Speaker 1 (25:37):
Yeah, and I saw there is a there was a
meeting I was reading about where they're trying to figure
out if they should put more protective gear on the
neck area, Like how would that work? Would they put
would players have to wear a chain link?
Speaker 5 (25:50):
No, it's it's there are some NHL players that are
wearing these now and some of the different leagues are
now mandating it's it's kind of like a turtleneck, but
it's made out of like kevlar or something.

Speaker 3 (26:29):
It's another Ben Mallard game.
Speaker 5 (26:31):
We've endured too many of these.
Speaker 1 (26:32):
Is it too much or not enough enough? Already? Well,
welcome in man making that soul food from Milwaukee. He's
got Brewer fever because they got a new manager, Artes
in Milwaukee. Hello Artes?
Speaker 3 (26:46):
What's up?
Speaker 6 (26:47):
What are you doing?
Speaker 1 (26:49):
Artes? If I was any better, I'd be a Milwaukee Buck.
But not Damian Lillard, who has not played as well
as I expected. What's going on with that?
Speaker 9 (26:56):
Hey?
Speaker 1 (26:56):
Man?
Speaker 3 (26:57):
Look?
Speaker 6 (26:57):
I mean when you give up a point guard like Holiday,
you lose a little bit on defense. That's what he
was good for Damian Litler, ain't got no D but
they should still be okay.
Speaker 1 (27:10):
Yeah, well he's had some terrible shooting games to begin
the year.
Speaker 6 (27:14):
I mean he shoot jumpers. That's gonna happen anyway, he
shoot jumpers.
Speaker 1 (27:17):
Of course he don't have well, yeah, but three of
seventeen the other night. That anyway, our tests are yeah,
here we go that I would think, so all right,
I would hope, all right, here we go. Too much
or not enough? You gotta get three right to win
the game? Get all five right? You were a total stud.
Here we go. Josh Allen has at least a share
of the league lead in both passing, touchdowns and interceptions.
(27:39):
That's the fifth time since the merger that a quarterback
has led the league in both through ten weeks or
later in the season. Is that too much or not enough?
Speaker 6 (27:51):
I think that's too much?
Speaker 1 (27:53):
Is he right? No? Not enough? It's the seventh time
none of the prior sixth were able to make the
playoffs with their respective teams. Question number two for Artes
in Milwaukee, there were eight NFL games, one with a
field goal as time expired in regulation this past weekend.
Is that too much or not enough?
Speaker 9 (28:18):
Enough?
Speaker 1 (28:18):
Artes is you say, not enough? Artes alright, let's find out.
Is he correct here? Oh my god? All for two?
All for two? Too much? That there were six? I mean,
you gotta remember there were some teams that didn't play
Kansas City, Philadelphia, Miami, teams like that Rams didn't play.
So there weren't a full allotment of games, but there
were six that were decided by game winning field goals.
(28:39):
Question number three. The Chargers forty one to thirty eight
loss to the Detroit football team was their tenth loss
by three or fewer points since the team drafted Justin
Herbert in twenty twenty? Is that too much or not enough?
Not enough? You say, okay, let's find out. Not enough, Hey,

Speaker 10 (32:15):
Like you give a damn now presenting the most up

and gentlemen, cows and pigs. It's the Iowa minute. Here's
Iowa sair.
Speaker 7 (32:29):
Uh so good to have Eddie back for those additional
sound effects.
Speaker 1 (32:32):
There lacking last week? Is that what you're saying, Iowa
saying that the greatest thirty six minutes in radio was
short shorthanded?
Speaker 7 (32:40):
Eddie puts a little extra manure on top of this
nice Iowa minute, and you know what it was. It
was definitely lacking.
Speaker 1 (32:46):
So a shot at the party, understand completely.
Speaker 8 (32:49):
I don't. I don't know if he was listening. I did.
Speaker 7 (32:50):
I did enjoy my Iowa minute last week. I thought
it was pretty good. But uh, definitely good to have
Eddie back. He does, he's just playing whatever. Sometimes when
he's here he does not listen, No, but he's just
randomly hitting livestock sound effects to, you know, help enhance
the ioa minute. Ben at some point, Yes, monkeys, monkeys
on my farm, at some.
Speaker 1 (33:11):
Other monkeys in Iowa.
Speaker 7 (33:12):
I don't know, maybe in like a petting zoo, I
don't know, like or you know, like Joe Exotic, you
know that kind of thing that was in Oklahoma.
Speaker 1 (33:20):
But I understand.
Speaker 7 (33:21):
Yeah, Ben, at some point we won't start the is
a minute with a harvest report. But that point is
not now, because the harvest just keeps going and going.
Why is it taking so long?
Speaker 1 (33:34):
What It's like a battery commercial, keeps going and going
and going and going quickly quickly?
Speaker 7 (33:41):
Yes, well, according to my research, this year's harvest is
actually ahead of schedule, ten days ahead of schedule, to
be exact.
Speaker 1 (33:47):
Did you check the Farmer's Almanac.
Speaker 7 (33:50):
I have a special website that I go to that
is very handy.
Speaker 8 (33:53):
It gets me.
Speaker 1 (33:54):
People from Iowa are allowed at that website.
Speaker 8 (33:57):
How many people are allowed?
Speaker 1 (33:58):
No, I said, only people from Iowa.
Speaker 7 (34:00):
Yes, yes, I have to enter special credentials, log in
a double double factor authentication, something like that. But we
are approaching the finish line of that harvest, and the
soybean harvest is nearly complete according to my detailed notes,
and about ninety four percent of the state's corn harvest
is in the bin. In the bin ben ben Mallard,
(34:20):
the ben that's a farming term. In the bin Ben Mallard,
the Ben Maller. I don't know what that means. Who
bin Mallard. But Ben, can you guess approximately how much
six percent of the remaining corn crop is is in
terms of acres?
Speaker 1 (34:37):
I'm gonna say that, say like, I'm gonna say eight
hundred acres more more more, way more. Ben can keep going,
I don't know, eight thousand acres more more? Really, Oh,
this is a good get Ben.
Speaker 8 (34:54):
One more? Guess right, and I'll reveal.
Speaker 1 (34:57):
Eighty thousand acres. Final answer.
Speaker 7 (35:00):
You're going in the right direction there, But it's seven
hundred and fifty thousand acres of corn remaining. Americans eat
a lot of corn. Well, a lot of that goes
to uh, you know, animals. They eat the corn that
fattens them up, and then we eat those animals.
Speaker 1 (35:16):
It's called the circle of life.
Speaker 8 (35:18):
Circle of yes, cash crops.
Speaker 1 (35:21):
Uh.
Speaker 7 (35:21):
No pork belly prices today because we know how that ended.
I stumbled, and Eddie, you didn't. You didn't hear this.
But I stumbled into a livestock auction last week. And
now I got filthy animals living in my apartment and
I haven't told my landlord yet.
Speaker 8 (35:34):
I'm in some trouble.
Speaker 1 (35:36):
It was a dark moment in the history of the
Iowa Minute.
Speaker 7 (35:38):
But I do have a lot of fresh eggs, too
many to count. Oh right, pressing on scores Scores, Scores, galores, scores,
Benador's Drake. Drake can bake baby now seven to ozer
in the Pioneer Like. Oh, Coop just walked in the
room here he was trying to skip out on the iron.
Speaker 1 (35:55):
Mine didn't realize he walked out of the room. I
had no idea.
Speaker 8 (35:58):
Yes he uh, he went to ghost I didn't even
see him. He wanted to go away from this Iowa minute.
Speaker 1 (36:02):
But he's back to here the most new He can
go away and walk over to burbank and walk back. Yes,
you still have time. That's the beauty of the Iowa minute.
Speaker 7 (36:10):
Four hours of walking. That's how long it takes. Drake
is now seven to zero in the Pioneer League. It's
the power and the magic of the Iowa minute. I
think in all Iowa minute, power and magic is ever
so gratefully brought to you by.
Speaker 3 (36:25):
Up to the minute grain prices always.
Speaker 7 (36:28):
Drake Edge is not Lutheran, not Episcopalian, not Southern Baptists,
but Presbyterian sixteen to fourteen. Up next, closing out the

Speaker 1 (36:46):
Cool, Jackie Celec Tom Selick's mom.
Speaker 8 (36:49):
Butt and Jackie.
Speaker 7 (36:50):
But and Jackie sound like some callers of yours they
would call in for a game, you know, like a
jack the judge.
Speaker 1 (36:57):
Oh my god, that's how that sounds about.
Speaker 4 (36:59):
Right.
Speaker 7 (36:59):
So a Bud and Jackie Selex sounds like a nice couple.
They got a football stadium named after them, all right.
Northern Iowa.
Speaker 8 (37:05):
Shame, shame, shame.
Speaker 7 (37:06):
Ben Panthers got mauled and eaten by the Bears of
Missouri State thirty five to sixteen. And this isn't the
This isn't a particularly good Missouri State team. The Bears
moved up to just three and four in the Missouri
Valley Football Conference after the win. Up next for Northern
Iowa closing the season out at home against number nine
North Dakota State the Buys and godspeed with that.
Speaker 1 (37:28):
Watch out for that. That's a tough one.
Speaker 7 (37:30):
Iowa State made a trip to Provo, Utah to take
on BYU, and despite their lovely, lovely home fans showering
the visiting cycling fans with the gifts of food.
Speaker 8 (37:42):
Iowa State took no prisoners.

He's not a little voice a little lower there. Big showdown,
big showdown, a night game. They'll pack the jack as
number seven Texas comes to aimes this weekend. Texas currently
atop the Big twelve Longhorns more than a touchdown favorite
in that game. All right, Finally, Ben, we closed with
now number sixteen n Island.
Speaker 1 (38:28):
We stay had another ten minutes here? What are you
talking about?
Speaker 8 (38:30):
Well, we actually have just one more minute. I better
hurry up.
Speaker 1 (38:33):
You're saying we have a hard network out.
Speaker 7 (38:35):
We might just to end this IO a minute, and
I had, you know, other stuff planned. But for the
first time all season, Iowa eclipsed four hundred yards.
Speaker 8 (38:41):
Of total offense.
Speaker 7 (38:43):
Big Day, Iowa shuts out Rutgers twenty two to nothing.
Speaker 8 (38:47):
And here's a little taste of that victory pie.
Speaker 1 (38:50):
He'll end the gun. Here we go one setback, that's Patterson.
Speaker 8 (38:53):
He's going to get the call, left or right?

Move fighting for the goal line? Is he over?

Speaker 9 (39:36):
Wh
Hello and welcome. It's our numb berth three, our three
ready to go, And what better topic of conversation than
Dion Sanders. Now, Dion has gone on the record saying
that he is not not thinking about jumping ship and
riding a buffalo to Texas to take over the Texas
A and M job. But are they thinking about him
(00:23):
at Texas A and M And what's that all about? Also,
tell me the latest on Chip Kelly as he's on
the hot seat at UCLA. How's his career coaching arc
looking at this point? And how good a job is
that UCLA gig? And now that the judge has ruled,
how should Oregon State and Washington State handle being the
(00:44):
PAC twelve orphans the last two standing officially? We'll talk
about that and more right now here. It is our
number three. Is it a prime move? Well? Gome In
beginning of another hour of the Ben Mahlor Show.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
We are in the air everywhere with bull dust as
we are the fresh take maker coast Duck coast border

Way tire buying shoeb in our lead this hour the
(01:53):
rare and appropriate college football malamalog. Now, I am not
going to break down the weekly update on who the
top teams are according to the College Football Committee and
all that. I don't find that all that interesting. Maybe
I'm a bad talk show host. I don't obsess over that.
(02:13):
Maybe you do. That's fine, I don't. Georgia has moved
back up, but I'm more interested in the other side dishes.
If you will headline headline from Boulder, Colorado? Could it
be one and done for coach Prime say it ain't
(02:34):
so well if you've heard the latest scuttle But depends
on who you believe. The Colorado head coach Deon Sanders,
attempting to distance himself from the very widespread speculation that
Dion is being recruited to come to Texas. A and
(02:54):
M big money job is open. Jimbo got paid forever
money to go away. Well, Dion was asked about this,
and here's what he said. He said, quote, I want
to win a game, he said. He told the assembled media.
You think I sit down and think about that kind
(03:15):
of stuff, Come on, he said, I'm good now. Sanders
also issued a prepared statement via social media in that
he pointed out that his mamou, his sister, his dog,
his daughter, and his three sons are all in Colorado.
(03:35):
He said that he gets his mail in that state,
and he pays his taxes in Colorado. So let us
it's Dion Sander statement. End the Texas and M noise?
Does it end the noise? And the answer is N
(03:55):
plus zero equos. That's right. No, no, no no. So
I've got WC. Fields, liberty, and speed dating. We will
combine these things together and we are going to make
a shoe string budget, which is what Colorado has in
(04:15):
comparison to Texas, A and M. They have a shoe
string budget. That is why this story still has legs.
So deon Sanders Hot Commodity Colorado is the wheels have
fallen off as the season has gone on for the Buffalo,
but he's still got the rasmatask. He's still good television
he's still in demand. Television ratings are great, and many
(04:39):
national pundits who are forced in the month of November,
usually late November, to talk about the coaching carousel, they
can only name five or ten coaches. So if you
have a segment on a TV show and you have
to come up with a coaching candidate for Texas, A
and M, and you only know five to ten coaches,
(05:02):
you're going to name one of the five to ten
coaches that you know. And Deon Sanders is on that
short list. And as much as he's denied it, and
I would agree it's not a good fit, it's not.
But the denial is worthless. I'm old enough to remember
when Nick Saban told the media in Miami that he
(05:23):
was not going to be the head football coach at Alabama.
I remember that, and then a couple days later got
on a private flight to Tuscaloosa, never to be heard
from again in South Florida. But the main reason that
denials from Dion Sanders and others, you take these with
a grain of salt. I'll tell you why. W. C.
(05:44):
Field said it best never give a sucker an even break.
It's in the DNA of coaches they will look you
right in the eye. They'll look you right in the eye,
and they're gonna lie right to your face. They're gonna
lie to you right to your face. What they're gonna
do all the A and M gig is a golden
hammer job. The timing is not particularly great for Dion.
(06:05):
He's got to do one more year in Boulder, and
that would be the greatest path to follow if you
look at the map. His kids then leave for the NFL,
and then he leaves for the NFL. So the possibility
now Dion said, I don't want to coach in the NFL,
blah blah blah blah blah blah. But again, coaches lie
all the time. They never give a sucker and even break.
(06:25):
So the fact that he said that is irrelevant. And
the idea that he could take the Falcon job, they're
gonna pull Ox Arthur Smith in Atlanta. See the headline
Dion Sanders saves the Falcons and he gets like two
percent of all lumber sales at home depot to coach
the Falcons. Now. Secondly, headline from the coaching carousel, A
(06:47):
non Wizard of Westwood department, non Wizard of Westwood department.
We have learned that you see, hell, hey, those cutting
little bruins are very likely to fire. There wrotund coach
Chip Kelly, proving it again the power of Bill Plashk.
Bill Plashky the other day said that UCLA has to
(07:12):
fire Chip Kelly. And it's a shocking that Bill. And
I know Bill and all that I disagree with most
things he says, but it's shocking that he still has
that kind of power when nobody is reading the La Times,
nobody is reading that newspaper, but he still has enough
juice among the sports people. And I guess you could
(07:33):
argue that the alumni, the powerful boosters at UCLA, his
opinion still matters. So with that and the repoort is
barring an upset over USC and that'll just push off
the inevitable. It'll just push off the inevitable and chips out.
So tell me about how Chip Kelly's career coaching arch
is looking. So Chip is a testimonial to something that
(07:57):
we've said a lot over the years on this show
that it's the man who shot liberty balance. Yeah, that's
the thing. When the legend becomes the fact, you go
with the legend and chip Kelly made his legend with
the Ducks. Quack quack quack quack quack. When the legend
becomes the fact, you go with the legend and going
(08:18):
all the way back many many years to when he
was Oregon and they were the most exciting team, the
greatest show on turf, the Oregon Ducks. There. What an
amazing offense they had. It was unlike anything anyone had
ever seen before. And now everyone's running that same style
of love is. But because of that, chip Kelly's reputation
has preceded him and he is known for that fast
(08:41):
paced offense, the supposed innovative play calling. The reality is,
since he left Oregon, he's been stinky, he's been flatulence.
Since leaving Eugene, chip Kelly has coached the NFL's Philadelphia Eagles,
the forty nine Ers, and UCLA. And in the time
(09:05):
he has coached at these other institutions of either semi
pro football, which UCLA is, or pro football, chip Kelly
has a four to eighty one winning percentage. And what
about that high power UCLA offense. Well, UCLA this season
they're forty first, not even in the top forty forty
first in total offense, behind such offensive powers as South
(09:27):
Alabama and Toledo and Ucla. Speaking of Toledo, the last
great coach Uclia had was Bob Toledo a million years ago.
But UCLA is eighty fifth in scoring offense behind perdub
I'm sick and tired of losing to Purdue in the
scoring offense, as the late Bobby Knight would say. Also,
Bowling Green, the Great Bowling Green, has a better offense
(09:51):
this year than UCLA, and Chip Kelly has been just
terrible against good teams. He's won a fair amount of games.
He's thirty three and thirty three UCLA coach, which has
plup that around. It's the sign of the devil. But
how good a job is the UCLA job? It's a
I have it in the shadows departments. In the shadows,
it pays pretty well, not great, but pays pretty well.
(10:13):
You get to live in La go to the beach
all the time. The problems are headed to the Big ten,
and you're gonna be stuck in the middle. Stuck in
the middle. You don't want to be stuck in the
mid and that's where Ucla inevitably will end up in
the Big ten. They'll win a couple of games in
the Big Ten, they'll lose to some teams they shouldn't
lose to, and anytime they play a cold weather game
late in the year. I mean that the Bruins over
(10:34):
the years have always struggled in places like Seattle and Eugene, Oregon,
in places like that. Can you imagine when they're heading
into Ohio or Michigan or Iowa in the winter. Good
luck that will go well, but that will really go well?
All right? Final fick headline, Speaking of the PAC twelve,
what's left of it? Headline from the courtroom Whitman County.
(10:56):
We're told that's in Washington, Whitman County. A superior court
judge there has granted the Washington State Cougars and Oregon
State Beaver's request they file some legal papers for a
preliminary injunction. Now, what does that mean in Layman's terms?
It means that those two schools will be the lone
(11:16):
governing body of the PAC twelve in terms of voting members.
So even though it's the PAC twelve, that decision was
in response to a lawsuit. There's a lot of legal
mumbo jumble. We don't need to get in all that.
But the PAC twelve board can invite, the Board of
two can invite the other ten members to future meetings.
They are all allowed to take in meetings and make suggestions. However,
(11:38):
the only schools that have voting power are Washington State
and Oregon State. So how should Oregon State and Wazoo
handle being packed twelve orphans? So this is all about
the light switch, which is will the last school left
in the PAC twelve please turn out the lights when
you're leaving? But gone is and Stanford. Next year they're
(12:01):
going to the Atlantic Coast Conference. Because when you think
of the Atlantic Coast Conference, you think of Northern California, Utah, Arizona,
Arizona State, and Colorado are all going to the Big twelve.
And then you've got USC UCLA in the Big ten
along with Washington and Oregon. So that means that the
(12:22):
Beavers and the Cougars are coming. The cougars are coming.
They need to go speed dating. Now. Here's why. They
have to either find ten schools willing to leave their
conference and fill in the blank spots, or they have
to sell the PAC twelve name. And I don't even
(12:43):
know who owns the PAC twelve name, but they have
to sell it and convince the Mountain West Conference, for example,
instead of being called the Mountain West, We're just gonna
call you the PAC twelve and we'll add We'll move
some teams around, but we'll add Oregon State and Washington
State because it makes some logical sense from a naming
(13:05):
branding standpoint. The PAC twelve name does have some cachet,
certainly has more cachet than the Mountains, not enough to
save the conference from dying, but UNLV, San Diego State,
Fresno State, schools like that put them in that what
would be the newly imagined PAC twelve. It is the

Here from the tire rack dot Com, Fox Sports Radio Studios,
it's Ben Mallor.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
Pressing on all night long. We go thank you, thank
you thinking at the Iowa Minute coming up later this hour,
the greatest thirty six minutes in all of overnight talk radio.
Get the grain prices, you get the soybeans, pork bellies,
all that, But time now for the mallor riddle of
(16:26):
the day. And here it is Detroit Lyons head coach
Dan Campbell, quite the character, says, he tells certain family
members to blank before some games. That is the mallor
riddle of the day. Does anyone know the answer? We'll
go to the calls in a minute. Fudgie in Boston,
says Dan Campbell recommends that his family members enjoy three
(16:50):
servings of fried kneecaps. Okay, what else do we have?
Page down? To lock the door and not answer it
for anyone, not even himself, Freddy says. Dan Campbell tells
his family to watch Benny Versus the Penny to see
the picks. That's a great advice from Dan Campbell. Every
one should do that before watching the NFL games. Who
(17:13):
says no? Alf the alien opiner says. He tells them
to do some online shopping for a cat hat. Wow,
that's quite the quite the infomercial item you found there, Alfa,
Who else do we have page down? Page down? He says,
smash their ear with the UFC title belt, just like
(17:33):
John Jones did to Stevie. Oh, who else do we
have page down. Scott and Rhode Island says, to get
naked and blank blank, that's his answer. Rory says he
tells them if the Lions lose, they have to drink
water from Flint, Michigan. Wow, shots shots fired there. Eke says,
(17:54):
shower with Irish spring soap. That's the way to do
I you pray to do it. Sean also said watch
Benny versus the petty double Ow Mexican says, to smoke
a joint, that's his answer. Robin Minnesota says test for
colon cancer. Take a dump guessed by courtesy Flusher page
down a matth. The Warrior Raider fan says. Dan Campbell
(18:15):
tells some family members to wear Sean Payton's grandma glasses
before certain gives you those are not good looking glasses.
I mean I don't have good looking glasses, but those
are not good looking glasses. Joe and Okanawa says. He
tells Dan Campbell his family to download listen to the
Malard podcast for inspiration. For inspiration, no stradinas, says Campbell says,
(18:36):
lay the points chip in the cue says, pray a
whole lot. Kyle got it right, obviously cheating, Eddie, do
you have an answer to the mallor riddle of the day?
Dan Campbell, Lions coach, says he tells some family members
to blank before certain games.
Speaker 5 (18:53):
Avoid the Iowa minute, avoid.
Speaker 1 (18:55):
The Iowa min. It all costs sound coaching advice, but
unfortunately that is incorrect. The correct answer is to wear
a diaper. He tells some family members to wear a
diaper before a game. Now, Eddie, you go to these games.
Do you ever wear a diaper when you go to
these games at all?
Speaker 6 (19:14):
Do not?
Speaker 1 (19:15):
You did not? And what do you think of people
that would wear a diaper to prevent having to go
to the bathroom. That seems like a very extreme measure. Uh,
the comfort would not be there. There's a lot of
smell that would also not be good. I would think, right.
Speaker 5 (19:29):
Yeah, I would advise them to get a life.
Speaker 1 (19:32):
Yeah, I would think you want to hold off on
the diapers as long as you can, because if you
live long enough, if you're lucky enough to live a
long time, you're eventually going to need yes, so try
to try to avoid it.
Speaker 5 (19:45):
So yeah, anyway, there are commercials, I mean I understand
is it because of the Lions football so exciting you're
not gonna be able to hold your your bodily saw him.
Speaker 1 (19:56):
You were at the Charge your Alliance games.
Speaker 5 (19:58):
It was an exciting game, But I never I thought
I was, oh my god, I'm gonna crap my pants.
Speaker 7 (20:02):
Maybe it's like there's so much scoring back and forth
that like you're gonna miss something.
Speaker 8 (20:06):
There's don't even go to the bathroom.
Speaker 5 (20:09):
There's also a pause button on your TV.
Speaker 4 (20:10):
You know.
Speaker 1 (20:11):
The other thing I've noticed that I don't think a
lot of people notice is when I used to just
used to surprise me back in the day when the
announcers would get the call right like, wow, how did
he know that call? But usually when there's a penalty,
like right away everyone in the stadium, if you if
you're watching the right official, you know exactly who the
penalty is on and likely what it is. But yet
(20:31):
on television, they they often make it very dramatic. Are
gonna wait for the officials to sort this out? And
very often do they not. Once they throw the flag
and they decide there's a penalty, they very rarely take
it back. You know what I'm saying. You're feeling me
on that, Sure, let's go to Keg drinking Steve. Who
is next? Hello, Keg drinking Steve.
Speaker 9 (21:03):
Let me say, you, man, you're the number one professional
player hater sports radio. What what what you got against
Aaron Rodgers? He's a manly the old man you should?
Speaker 1 (21:18):
What what if I said? I have I even mentioned
Aaron Rodgers name on the show. I don't recall mentioning
the name.
Speaker 9 (21:25):
Luke warm about his great comeback. He's not.
Speaker 4 (21:29):
He's not.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
He's not. If he held take a breath, you drunk, listen,
if he had listen to me all right, if he
had the injury that he said he had, if he
if he said the correct injury, there is no way
he comes back and plays this season.
Speaker 9 (21:48):
No way you should. You're like becoming the old man
of the law.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
Why why could tell my old man on the lawn?
Speaker 9 (21:57):
Why what couldn't you be happy for? What can't you mean?
Speaker 1 (22:01):
Because he's pulling everyone's shane and it's dumb people that
believe he's going to come back. Anybody with any common
sense says, if Aaron Rodgers had the injury that we
all think he had, right, if he had that, actually
he's not going to play this season. It's a six
month minimum rehab. It's not three months. It's six months.
That's it, and usually it's a lot longer than that.
Speaker 9 (22:24):
Just put him out there, man, if you're if you're
in the yeah, I agree.
Speaker 1 (22:29):
Put him out of it. Put him in, put him
in a wheelchair, have him run around and make sure
it's an electric wheelchair. And you can put the Jets logo. No,
you put the Jets logo on it, and that's good.
You're good to go.
Speaker 9 (22:40):
See. I don't understand why you gotta. You know, he's
gonna set a record for the greatest comeback for this
injury ever. You need to appreciate him, you need he's
a hero.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
I can ask a hero. Yes, he's a patriot. They
should have it. They should have a day for Aaron
where we all get a day off from work to
celebrate air and lodge.
Speaker 10 (23:02):
Good.
Speaker 9 (23:03):
Let me tell you that he's looking. He's a good
looking man. He's a Hey. I think you're threatened by
he's such a good looking guy.
Speaker 1 (23:14):
You know, hey, I am inciminated by his his masculine
good looks, his debonair approach to life. I cannot handle that.
Speaker 9 (23:23):
Oh man, I think that there's got something to do
with that? Why you hate all these good looking players?
You know?
Speaker 1 (23:30):
Hey, I only like I only like the ugly players.
I don't not like anyone who's charismatic.
Speaker 9 (23:36):
And I heard you. Did you hear this girl from
the Doctor Phil Show made eighteen million in one month?
Then a man, Barbie Man, she's making eight hundred thousand
dollars a month, not only fans man.
Speaker 1 (23:52):
Yeah, that's right, because she sells a product that has
always and will always have a market. What she's selling TNA,
people have stayed for TNA. That's undefeated.
Speaker 9 (24:08):
What Aaron Rodgers sells hope and America. And you hate
hope you.
Speaker 1 (24:17):
I know, I do know. I hate all hope porn and.
Speaker 9 (24:20):
You love porn. You don't love hope, and you don't
love America. You love porn.
Speaker 1 (24:26):
Yes, I'm looking at some right now. Yes, because your
call is boring?
Speaker 10 (24:31):
You love?
Speaker 1 (24:32):
So all right, I go away.
Speaker 3 (24:35):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Meller
Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific.
Speaker 5 (24:41):
This note from the World of Hockey. UH British police
arrested Matt Petgrave. He is the player who skate cut
the throats of former Pittsburgh Penguins player Adam Johnson in
an English League game over there. He's been charged with manslaughter.
This is this is a great name to Detective Chief
Superintendent Beck's Horsefall of the South Yorkshire Police Department told
(25:05):
the BBC Fall quote, We've been carrying out an extensive
inquiries to piece together the events that led to the
loss of Adam and these unprecedented circumstances. We've been speaking
to highly specialized experts in their field to assistance and
inquiries and continue to work closely with the Health and
Safety Department of Sheffield City Council, which is supporting our
ongoing investigation.
Speaker 8 (25:25):
End quote.
Speaker 5 (25:25):
If you don't remember, Adam Johnson died on October the
twenty eighth after he was hitting the throat by Matt
Petgraves skate and so he's been charged with manslaughter.
Speaker 1 (25:37):
Yeah, and I saw there is a there was a
meeting I was reading about where they're trying to figure
out if they should put more protective gear on the
neck area, Like how would that work? Would they put
would players have to wear a chain link?
Speaker 5 (25:50):
No, it's it's there are some NHL players that are
wearing these now and some of the different leagues are
now mandating it's it's kind of like a turtleneck, but
it's made out of like kevlar or something.

Speaker 5 (26:31):
We've endured too many of these.
Speaker 1 (26:32):
Is it too much or not enough enough? Already? Well,
welcome in man making that soul food from Milwaukee. He's
got Brewer fever because they got a new manager, Artes
in Milwaukee. Hello Artes?
Speaker 3 (26:46):
What's up?
Speaker 6 (26:47):
What are you doing?
Speaker 1 (26:49):
Artes? If I was any better, I'd be a Milwaukee Buck.
But not Damian Lillard, who has not played as well
as I expected. What's going on with that?
Speaker 9 (26:56):
Hey?
Speaker 1 (26:56):
Man?
Speaker 3 (26:57):
Look?
Speaker 6 (26:57):
I mean when you give up a point guard like Holiday,
you lose a little bit on defense. That's what he
was good for Damian Litler, ain't got no D but
they should still be okay.
Speaker 1 (27:10):
Yeah, well he's had some terrible shooting games to begin
the year.
Speaker 6 (27:14):
I mean he shoot jumpers. That's gonna happen anyway, he
shoot jumpers.
Speaker 1 (27:17):
Of course he don't have well, yeah, but three of
seventeen the other night. That anyway, our tests are yeah,
here we go that I would think, so all right,
I would hope, all right, here we go. Too much
or not enough? You gotta get three right to win
the game? Get all five right? You were a total stud.
Here we go. Josh Allen has at least a share
of the league lead in both passing, touchdowns and interceptions.
(27:39):
That's the fifth time since the merger that a quarterback
has led the league in both through ten weeks or
later in the season. Is that too much or not enough?
Speaker 6 (27:51):
I think that's too much?
Speaker 1 (27:53):
Is he right? No? Not enough? It's the seventh time
none of the prior sixth were able to make the
playoffs with their respective teams. Question number two for Artes
in Milwaukee, there were eight NFL games, one with a
field goal as time expired in regulation this past weekend.
Is that too much or not enough?
Speaker 9 (28:18):
Enough?
Speaker 1 (28:18):
Artes is you say, not enough? Artes alright, let's find out.
Is he correct here? Oh my god? All for two?
All for two? Too much? That there were six? I mean,
you gotta remember there were some teams that didn't play
Kansas City, Philadelphia, Miami, teams like that Rams didn't play.
So there weren't a full allotment of games, but there
were six that were decided by game winning field goals.
(28:39):
Question number three. The Chargers forty one to thirty eight
loss to the Detroit football team was their tenth loss
by three or fewer points since the team drafted Justin
Herbert in twenty twenty? Is that too much or not enough?
Not enough? You say, okay, let's find out. Not enough, Hey,
(29:00):
you didn't get all three of a wrong not enough
the thirteenth loss by three or les since drafting Justin Herbert,
So not enough? Question four? He's still alive? Question for
Dak Prescott now has nine career games with four hundred
passing yards and a seventy percent completion rate. Is that
too much or not enough for the Cowboys quarterback? Too much,
(29:28):
he says, too much to stay alive. Let's find out.
Right again, he's on the comeback trail, the comeback kid,
our test. Can't he complete it? It comes down to
the moment of the truth, the seminal moment. Here we go.
Are you ready our test? How much more cooking do
you have to do tonight?
Speaker 6 (29:49):
I just got a s prep up the chicken and.
Speaker 1 (29:53):
A little chicken. I got you? All right? Here we go.
LSU quarterback Jaden Daniels. This guy's he's a stud. He
became the fourth player in FBS history to have ten
thousand career passing yards and three thousand career rushing yards.
Is that too much or not enough for those Bengal Tigers?
Speaker 9 (30:13):
Uh?
Speaker 6 (30:16):
Not?
Speaker 1 (30:18):
You sure about that?
Speaker 9 (30:22):

Iowa sair.
Speaker 7 (32:29):
Uh so good to have Eddie back for those additional
sound effects.
Speaker 1 (32:32):
There lacking last week? Is that what you're saying, Iowa
saying that the greatest thirty six minutes in radio was
short shorthanded?
Speaker 7 (32:40):
Eddie puts a little extra manure on top of this
nice Iowa minute, and you know what it was. It
was definitely lacking.
Speaker 1 (32:46):
So a shot at the party, understand completely.
Speaker 8 (32:49):
I don't. I don't know if he was listening. I did.
Speaker 7 (32:50):
I did enjoy my Iowa minute last week. I thought
it was pretty good. But uh, definitely good to have
Eddie back. He does, he's just playing whatever. Sometimes when
he's here he does not listen, No, but he's just
randomly hitting livestock sound effects to, you know, help enhance
the ioa minute. Ben at some point, Yes, monkeys, monkeys
on my farm, at some.
Speaker 1 (33:11):
Other monkeys in Iowa.
Speaker 7 (33:12):
I don't know, maybe in like a petting zoo, I
don't know, like or you know, like Joe Exotic, you
know that kind of thing that was in Oklahoma.
Speaker 1 (33:20):
But I understand.
Speaker 7 (33:21):
Yeah, Ben, at some point we won't start the is
a minute with a harvest report. But that point is
not now, because the harvest just keeps going and going.
Why is it taking so long?
Speaker 1 (33:34):
What It's like a battery commercial, keeps going and going
and going and going quickly quickly?
Speaker 7 (33:41):
Yes, well, according to my research, this year's harvest is
actually ahead of schedule, ten days ahead of schedule, to
be exact.
Speaker 1 (33:47):
Did you check the Farmer's Almanac.
Speaker 7 (33:50):
I have a special website that I go to that
is very handy.
Speaker 8 (33:53):
It gets me.
Speaker 1 (33:54):
People from Iowa are allowed at that website.
Speaker 8 (33:57):
How many people are allowed?
Speaker 1 (33:58):
No, I said, only people from Iowa.
Speaker 7 (34:00):
Yes, yes, I have to enter special credentials, log in
a double double factor authentication, something like that. But we
are approaching the finish line of that harvest, and the
soybean harvest is nearly complete according to my detailed notes,
and about ninety four percent of the state's corn harvest
is in the bin. In the bin ben ben Mallard,
(34:20):
the ben that's a farming term. In the bin Ben Mallard,
the Ben Maller. I don't know what that means. Who
bin Mallard. But Ben, can you guess approximately how much
six percent of the remaining corn crop is is in
terms of acres?
Speaker 1 (34:37):
I'm gonna say that, say like, I'm gonna say eight
hundred acres more more more, way more. Ben can keep going,
I don't know, eight thousand acres more more? Really, Oh,
this is a good get Ben.
Speaker 8 (34:54):
One more? Guess right, and I'll reveal.
Speaker 1 (34:57):
Eighty thousand acres. Final answer.
Speaker 7 (35:00):
You're going in the right direction there, But it's seven
hundred and fifty thousand acres of corn remaining. Americans eat
a lot of corn. Well, a lot of that goes
to uh, you know, animals. They eat the corn that
fattens them up, and then we eat those animals.
Speaker 1 (35:16):
It's called the circle of life.
Speaker 8 (35:18):
Circle of yes, cash crops.
Speaker 1 (35:21):
Uh.
Speaker 7 (35:21):
No pork belly prices today because we know how that ended.
I stumbled, and Eddie, you didn't. You didn't hear this.
But I stumbled into a livestock auction last week. And
now I got filthy animals living in my apartment and
I haven't told my landlord yet.
Speaker 8 (35:34):
I'm in some trouble.
Speaker 1 (35:36):
It was a dark moment in the history of the
Iowa Minute.
Speaker 7 (35:38):
But I do have a lot of fresh eggs, too
many to count. Oh right, pressing on scores Scores, Scores, galores, scores,
Benador's Drake. Drake can bake baby now seven to ozer
in the Pioneer Like. Oh, Coop just walked in the
room here he was trying to skip out on the iron.
Speaker 1 (35:55):
Mine didn't realize he walked out of the room. I
had no idea.
Speaker 8 (35:58):
Yes he uh, he went to ghost I didn't even
see him. He wanted to go away from this Iowa minute.
Speaker 1 (36:02):
But he's back to here the most new He can
go away and walk over to burbank and walk back. Yes,
you still have time. That's the beauty of the Iowa minute.
Speaker 7 (36:10):
Four hours of walking. That's how long it takes. Drake
is now seven to zero in the Pioneer League. It's
the power and the magic of the Iowa minute. I
think in all Iowa minute, power and magic is ever
so gratefully brought to you by.
Speaker 3 (36:25):
Up to the minute grain prices always.
Speaker 7 (36:28):
Drake Edge is not Lutheran, not Episcopalian, not Southern Baptists,
but Presbyterian sixteen to fourteen. Up next, closing out the

would call in for a game, you know, like a
jack the judge.
Speaker 1 (36:57):
Oh my god, that's how that sounds about.
Speaker 4 (36:59):
Right.
Speaker 7 (36:59):
So a Bud and Jackie Selex sounds like a nice couple.
They got a football stadium named after them, all right.
Northern Iowa.
Speaker 8 (37:05):
Shame, shame, shame.
Speaker 7 (37:06):
Ben Panthers got mauled and eaten by the Bears of

Valley Football Conference after the win. Up next for Northern

You're saying we have a hard network out.
Speaker 7 (38:35):
We might just to end this IO a minute, and
I had, you know, other stuff planned. But for the
first time all season, Iowa eclipsed four hundred yards.
Speaker 8 (38:41):
Of total offense.
Speaker 7 (38:43):
Big Day, Iowa shuts out Rutgers twenty two to nothing.
Speaker 8 (38:47):
