Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello and welcome. Here we go, it's our number four.
The time has come. The court of Malor, the kangaroo
court of the overnight has been called, and we will
be firing an NFL head coach. You now own the commanders.
You make the call. What do you do with Ron
(00:20):
Rivera after a stunner ten point favorites losing at home
to Tommy DeVito and the Giants? Also, should the Lions
be concerned with Jared Goff? Yeah, they beat the Bears,
but Jared Goff throwing a bunch of interceptions in that game.
And how do you digest this latest stinky performance by
Bryce Young in the Carolinas. We'll talk about all that
(00:41):
and more right now here it is. Have a wonderful
start to your week. Here it's Thanksgiving week. Ah My crazy,
isn't it? Here we go, it's our number four. A
fight song back in the day for a certain NFC
team was Hail to victory. Now it's hail too stinkage.
Wel come, in the beginning of another hour of the
(01:08):
Ben Malor Show. We are in the a everywhere in
the passengers seat as we provide an audio compass coast
the coast, border, the border and beyond on the mast
and strappingly powerful microphones of fsre mminating live from the park,
(01:32):
the trailer park of the audio schedule overnights, we are
broadcasting live from the tire rack dot com studios. Tyraq
dot com will help you get there in unmatched selection,

thousand recommended installers tyrat dot com. The way tire buying
should be. Sunday night game, We're not gonna lead with that.
(01:53):
It goes to the Denver Broncos. A late drive touchdown
pass by Russell Wilson as Denver offensively only scored twelve
points without the benefit of turnovers. The vikings that Bronco's
on a burner right now as the other team very generous.
So the Broncos have the longest winning streak in the
NFL and they are sneaking their way back into playoff
(02:14):
contention in the AFC. There's also a story we'll see
how big this gets out of New York tabloids in
New York New York Post reporting that they're naming names
here guy accusing NFL legend Joe Namath of Joe paternal
like activity that story developing on a Sunday night in
the overnight. We'll see if that story has legs today.
(02:36):
But a person naming names saying that Joe Namath at
a football camp fifty one years ago should have known
that there was some untort things, some terrible things that
were going on. So we'll see ivanning comes to that.
But are lead this hour coming out of Washington, outside
the Beltway, Outside the Beltway, the Giants and the Commanders
(03:00):
East Donnybrook. This game not expected to be much of
a game at all. The oddsmakers had the Washington football
team a double digit favorite. By the time the game
kicked off. It was at nine and a half. That's
a massive points, but yet many did not think it
was big enough. Why have you seen the Giants? Have
(03:21):
just seen the Giants recently? My god? So how did
that work out? Well, if you didn't watch it, obviously
we're talking about it. The Giants third string quarterback Tommy DeVito,
who looked like he should be working at a movie
theater selling popcorn. Tommy DeVito performed like a competent quarterback,
like he was back at Illinois, throwing touchdown passes against Indiana.
(03:45):
It was ridiculous thirty one to nineteen up Set City
as the Washington football team, an almost double digit favorite,
lose by twelve points. De Vito completed eighteen PA of
a two hundred and forty six yards, three touchdowns, no interceptions.
He was sacked nine times and still had three touchdowns
(04:09):
no interceptions. The better story is in the losing locker room, though,
in reports circling all night here in the overnight as
we keep track of these things, that there is a
coaching change pending that Ron Rivera is about to exit. Now,
I hadn't been fired as far as we know, at
least we haven't seen it yet. If it has happened,
these are the kind of things that normally happened at
(04:30):
the crack of the sunrise. We're not quite there yet.
So anyway, Ron Rivera under siege. He is under siege,
and it could be the second coach fired after Josh
mcdummy was let go by the Las Vegas football team.
So let us discuss the question. You now own, through
(04:51):
the powers invested to me, the powers invested in me
by the radio gods, you now own the Washington Commanders. Congratulations,
we're in the twilight zone. You now own the Washington Commanders.
You make the call, do you fire Ron Rivera today
(05:12):
or do you keep and the kangaroo court will be
activated here, the kangaroo court of mal I've got employee handbook,
DeLorean and rubbers stamp. Employee handbook, DeLorean and rubber stamp,
and we'll tie all of these things together and we're
going to make an honest politician, which does not exist.
(05:33):
They don't by definition. Politician and honest don't exist. And
if you live in DC, you know what I'm talking about.
So all right, so to kick off here to answer
the question, I'm now the commissioner of the NFL, I'm
now the owner of the Washington football team and all that,
and it's my decision. I've activated the kangaroo court of
(05:54):
the Malad militia. And the only reasonable thing to do
here is to get out a guillotine, a coaching guillotine,
and bye bye, see you later, get out of here
right now. Rivera's coached a long time in the NFL,
was in Carolina for a number of years, and now
(06:14):
he's he's in Washington, and people seem to like Ron Rivera.
It's pretty smooth with the media, but This is a
no brainer. This is open and shut. The jury is in.
We are surprised that he hasn't already been fired yet
we're to fighting him right after the game. Say hey, Ron,
don't come back to work tomorrow. We're good because if
(06:35):
you look at the employee handbook for every NFL team,
by this case Washington. You look at that employee handbook
for the Washington football team, he's already committed at least
two fireable offenses. What has Ron Riverra done, all right?
The first thing he checks all the boxes there poor
work performance. Look at his all time record as coaching Washington,
(06:57):
poor work performance. The other one is in some ordination,
and that would be turning Tommy de Vito into a
successful NFL quarterback, doing the impossible, not just a little
bit better, light years better. And so that is what's
known as disrespectful behavior. Is what it is. It's disrespectful behavior.
(07:20):
If you look at the body of work. The Commanders
have lost seven of their last nine games, seven to
the last nine games. They started the season two and zero,
but they've lost seven of the last nine. Washington has
only been able to beat one team with a above
five hundred record. That was the Atlanta Falcons who are
now under five hundred. You understand what I'm saying. So
(07:44):
we advise Ron Rivera to pick up the Manila envelope
with his name on it from HR and there'll be
further instructions on how to pick up his severance and
where to leave his belongings and all of that. And
it's just ready. It's just ready to be made here
now because you get rid of you got a new owner.
You get rid of Rivera, and you slide up Eric Benemy.
(08:07):
Now I don't know whether b Enemy can be a
head coach or not. Who knows. He's been passed over
by every team in the NFL multiple times, it seems.
But Eric Benemy, who was in Kansas City and now
he's in Washington and all that, you can give him
an opportunity for the final six weeks of the NFL
season to be the interim head coach and see whether
you like the guy or not. If not, you bring
somebody else in, like Bill Belichick. But that's the move
(08:29):
to make. That is the move to make. If you're
the Washington football team, you get rid of Ron Vera.
The Malar Kangaroo Court has voted Now furthermore, we pivot
to Detroit and the boo birds were a chirpin' Is
this the first time, first time recently anyway, that Jared
Goff has been serenaded with boo flat? The Lions quarterback
(08:51):
throwing three interceptions in this game and then eventually was
able to rally the Detroit football team past the woebegone
Fedech Chicago Bears thirty one to twenty six. He come
from behind win as the bad news Bears go down
on the losing side. Now even in victory, though even
in victory for the Lions, the quarterback play shaky. So
(09:15):
the question is should the Lions be concerned with Jared Goff?
Are we at the part of the story where there's
legitimate concern for Jared Goff? And I am nodding my head. Yes,
I admit that I have a little Jared Goff PTSD
from his days with the Rams, and he played much
(09:37):
better than I ever imagined with the Lions. But Detroit
fancies themselves a heavyweight contender in the NFC. Now, whether
that's true or not, that's up for debate. The Eagles
currently of the number one team, But should the Eagles
lose to the Kansas City football team. Then I'll shake
things up a little bit, and you look around, Niners
lost three games in a row, but they're back now,
(09:58):
They've got their guys back. So system quarterbacks, mister perfect.
You look around and say, but Jared Goff is regressing.
Is whether you like the guy or not, Jared Goff
is regressing. And if you take a spin in the
DeLorean from Back to the Future, you go into the Dolorean.
This particular game, from what I saw of it was
(10:19):
a throwback because Jared Goff had three interceptions in this game,
first time since he was a RAM in twenty nineteen,
first time since he was a RAM in twenty nineteen,
and he threw picks on the first two possessions. Now,
the Jared Goff apologisis say, well, you know, the first interception,
it was a tip pass tight end Sam Laporta. Is
(10:41):
that really the fault of Jared Goff? But there were
also a couple of interceptions the Bears defenders dropped that
were just perfect interceptions. And so it continues a recent
pattern the last month for Jared Goff, a wobbly quarterback play.
What is my evidence the last four weeks Jared Goff
(11:05):
has been averaging six point four yards per pass, which
is not good seven's average, and has as many touchdowns
as he does interceptions, and a passer rating of below
eighty two rememb one hundred's good. Eighty below eighty two
is not good. That's not championship level quarterback play from
Jared Donn's not now. Is this just merely a couple
(11:26):
of bad games? Or is this the return of the
guy who we thought he was and the reason the
Rams traded him in multiple draft picks to get rid
of him, to get Matthew Stavords so they could win
a Super Bowl, and they gotta find a out. Obviously,
they got to bring him up to code. If you're
the Lions, you got to bring him up to code.
But you got to do better and be better. Our
(11:47):
parting shot, we head to down the road from the
Great Smoky Mountains, well several miles down the road the
NFL's worst team. Who are they? That would be the
Carolina Panthers, who were char broiled by the Dallas Cowboys
thirty three to ten. The game was supposed to be
a route and it lived up to the billing, as
(12:08):
the Panthers were getting a bunch of points. Now, I
did take the Panthers, and I look like an idiot,
But the I thought the Cowboys going into Thanksgiving week before,
they're not as good on the road. And Dak Prescott
didn't play particularly great. He didn't. I dink and dunk
Dak a lot of that, didn't average a bunch of yards.
(12:29):
But in comparison, Bryce Young, number one and the number
one pick in the draft, he had his worst game.
Yet he's not getting better. One hundred and twenty three
yards passing one two three as easy as ABC one
two three, one hundred and twenty three yards passing sacked
the season I seven times. No pocket awareness for Bryce Young,
(12:50):
no internal clock, none of that. And so how do
you digest the latest stinky performance by the number one
pick for the Panthers, Bryce Young. So this is what's
known as a rubber stamp, A rubber stamp. Give now,
what is a rubber stamp game? Bryce Young continues to
rubber stamp, which means validate that he should not have
(13:15):
been the number one pick. And the Panthers got absolutely hornswoggled.
They did, And I have not seen him look good
in one game this season I have not. And this
continues and he's not getting better, he's getting worse. He's
getting worse. And this is a total boondoggle of a
(13:36):
situation for the Panthers who put all their chips into
the Bryce Young basket. And he can't play like he
just sucks. And there's no light at the end of
the tunnel. If there is, it's a train on coming
and you're tied to the tracks. That's what it is.
I mean, here, here's a guy that should be selling concessions.
Get you not jog, Get you not Joe. Here we
(13:58):
go hot, not jog. Peanuts, peanut huh, pretzels saft pretzels, salt,
no salt, sft pretzels. But geez. Now, keep in mind
Frank Wright, the head coach, demoted himself a few weeks ago,
gave the offensive coordinator to play calling duties, came back
as the play caller for this game. Now, that tells
(14:20):
us that they're at the part of the story where
they're just throwing spaghetti against the wall seeing if any
of the spaghetti sticks. It's like, well, this isn't working,
so let me trust some other spaghetti. Let me bring
back the old spaghetti. Maybe we'll trust some fetuccini and
see what sticks. Maybe we'll throw ravioli up there and
see if that'll stick. I don't know. It is the
Ben Mahler Show. If you'd like to comment on any
of that, you can join us. Your lines are open,
(14:41):
speakeasy rules to apply, but we'd love to talk to you.
That would be great, That would be really really cool.
We have the mother of all stats. We'll also tell
you why Joe Buck and Troy Aikman are not happy,
not happy heading into the Monday night game, the game.
Speaker 2 (14:57):
Of the year.
Speaker 1 (14:58):
They're not happy, and there are things looking we'll get
to this later in the hour. For the top of
the NFL Draft. We had the Giants winning, they were
right up there. We had a couple other surprises. So
how's it looking at the very top of the twenty
twenty four NFL Draft. We'll get to all that, and
we will do it.

(16:58):
So who's moving on off? But who's moving down? The
NFL draft? Everyone about the tank. It's all about the tank.
And I'm disappointing in Moving Man Matt, one of our
great listeners, the man that put the Mallard name on
the back of moving trucks out of Boston. Haven't heard
from him much recently, but he's a big Giants fan,
even though he's in Boston. Loves the New York Giants,
(17:18):
and he's upset. He wanted me to unload on the
Giants because they beat the Washington football team and they're
supposed to lose. Well, the Giants do move down a
couple of slots, and as of right now, here's the
big board. The big board the top six picks in
the NFL draft. Tennessee is number six at three and seven.
(17:40):
They've lost three in a row, so they're doing good.
They're really blowing it. The Giants with that win dropped down.
They're three and eight and they drop behind the Bears,
who are also three in it. So the Bears would
have the number four pick. They have the same record,
but it's based on strength. The schedule in Chicago has
had a weaker list of opponents than the Giants have.
(18:04):
And then after that, with the number three pick. Right now,
your New England Patriots not playing that. They're a solid
two and eight and they've lost three in a row,
and should they continue to lose here, and if Arizona
can win one more game with Kyler Murray, then New
England would then move on up. Right now, Arizona's the
number two team and the number one team is Carolina,
(18:24):
but that pick goes to Chicago as the Panthers are
the one win team. Let's call the phones and we'll
say hello to Let's say hi to eeny meenie Mineum,
let's go to Dick, who's in Dayton.
Speaker 6 (18:37):
Hello, Dick, good, Ben and c Are.
Speaker 1 (18:41):
If I was any better, I'd be Jimmy Donovan, But no,
I will not because he was back. Is that correct? Yeah,
Jimmy Donovan you got a buddy of mine, my friend,
Bobby radio guy. He said, Dick and Dayton's gonna be happy.
Jimmy Donovan's back.
Speaker 7 (18:56):
Yeah, bum Tevin needs a Browns defense. Look pretty good,
didn't they.
Speaker 1 (19:00):
Yeah? Yeah, they looked all right?
Speaker 8 (19:02):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (19:03):
How about that?
Speaker 5 (19:03):
How about that?
Speaker 1 (19:03):
How about that quarterback? Though?
Speaker 7 (19:05):
Oh I liked that quarterback. But I thought at the
end that he was going to throw an interception. But
he used to cock pretty good, didn't he?
Speaker 6 (19:13):
I thought, do you think.
Speaker 1 (19:15):
He's the guy? He's in the next Bernie d t r?
What do you think?
Speaker 6 (19:18):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (19:18):
I think so, the next Eddie, the next Bernie. Kochar
tweet that out Coople, We'll put that on the Fox
Sports Radio twitter feed. That's nobody else has that take.
That's an original Dick and Dayton take. Yeah, that's a
great take right there. Dorian Thompson Robinson the next Bernie.
Speaker 6 (19:36):
How about the kicker?
Speaker 1 (19:38):
Actually, I think he's the next Bernie Fratto? I think,
is that?
Speaker 8 (19:41):
What's that?
Speaker 1 (19:42):
The kicker? Dustin Hopkins?
Speaker 9 (19:43):
Yes, yeah, Oh, I was good to tell you something.
Mostly I didn't know, but I listened to John Michaels
and Brad Daughery on the K I didn't know they
were on, but boy, they looked good.
Speaker 7 (19:54):
They were making their shots. I can't think of that
one guy. They got all those points. But he is
even saying to everybody there, he says, it's a good data.
He said, to be a Cleveland fan.
Speaker 1 (20:07):
Yeah, it wasn't every day to be a good day
to be a Cleveland fan. For you. You love being a
Cleveland fan. You're old, buddy, And have you have you
continued to mourn the loss of the Bengals season? Are
you getting over that Joe Burrow.
Speaker 6 (20:19):
Out the year two guy?
Speaker 7 (20:21):
I think this new guy, let's say you got what
Let's see next week. It's going to be close, but
I'll think they'll end up maybe I'm saying right now,
maybe eight, eight or nine, maybe two or three more,
but not so.
Speaker 1 (20:35):
You think the Browns are the Bengals rather actually win
games with Jake Browning as quarterback?
Speaker 6 (20:40):
Yeah, but they're not. I don't think you are, Dick, And.
Speaker 1 (20:43):
You're a cock eyed optimist is what you are.
Speaker 6 (20:45):
I am hard.
Speaker 7 (20:46):
Yeah, I always There's a guy in Cleveland that I
call every day and he says, every time I call
people in the morning, Dick, your predictions, He said, Dick
have been eighty per saying good. I mean, there's nobody
can predict in your your How do you?
Speaker 1 (21:05):
How are you so good at this? Dick?
Speaker 7 (21:08):
All I do is I I'll tell him during the week.
But I just make a prediction. And I think I
was off in one of the Browns games. But I've
just got that psychedelic memory. I guess right, let's.
Speaker 5 (21:20):
And maybe we should do a dick pic segment on
the Ben Malor Show. But me, I said, maybe we
should do a dick pic segment on the Ben Malor Show.
Speaker 7 (21:28):
Yeah yeah, And I hope Timmy Donovan.
Speaker 1 (21:30):
Calls because uh Eddie would definitely be in to that segment.
He would show up to work that day. I know that.
Speaker 7 (21:35):
I wanted to tell you, though, Ben, do you know
what happened to me? For two days? I got a
little I had a real bad it was going around
and I stayed home with a couple. It was it
was just real weak calling. It was a real bad
I went to a.
Speaker 1 (21:51):
Little Oh.
Speaker 6 (21:56):
Yeah yeah, but I no.
Speaker 7 (22:00):
Darn darn Codan helped me. But I never felt so bad.
Speaker 1 (22:04):
Were you wait, were you a drugged up dick.
Speaker 6 (22:07):

Speaker 1 (22:08):
Yeah? All right, well there you go. All right, Well listen, Dick,
we love you. I'm so happy you called us and

Speaker 9 (22:15):
Yes, Whatsgiving day.
Speaker 1 (22:18):
I'll be on leading into Thanksgiving, so I will be
here Thanksgiving morning. So yeah, well that's when we started
our friendship years ago.
Speaker 8 (22:25):
When you.
Speaker 1 (22:27):

been calling me to twenty I can't believe it.
Speaker 8 (22:31):
Man.
Speaker 1 (22:32):
We love you too. All right, thank you, Dick, bye bye. Yeah.
I was doing a Thanksgiving show and Dick called up
to brag that he had Thanksgiving dinner. This is twenty
years ago for like five dollars. Wow.
Speaker 5 (22:43):
He just doesn't get any better than Dick and Turkey.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
You're on the edge. I like that, d your shock jock.
You know. I think that's what Sam was having a
heart attack. Yeah, oh yeah, Sam would have dumped all that.
But I think that's a good idea. We could have,
you know, Dick and Dayton pick games. We call it
the Dick Pic of the Day, and I think that's
a wonderful idea.
Speaker 5 (23:04):
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (23:04):
That's it. We should do it. And I promote that
we should make a promo.
Speaker 5 (23:08):

They misspelled my name though, Eddie, Oh, they misspelled my name.
About twenty plus years of LA radio, I got a

intern misspelled my name. They put an extra A instead
of an E in there at the end, malaw mallor
(23:49):
or malaar malar.
Speaker 5 (23:50):
That's a that's a new one.
Speaker 1 (23:52):
Yeah. So I told, uh, what's his name? Uh? Lead
a lap Lead deals with the Rams, and so I said, op,
so the Rams, like I check my email, there was nothing.
They send these things out via email, so there was
no pratt and then no press passing. So I realized
what they misspelled my name? That was the problem. I mean,
you know, it's a hard name to spell. Apparently, well
(24:12):

All right there, All right, Marcell is going. We got

Speaker 5 (28:00):
Hollo, doc, you got the doc.
Speaker 8 (28:02):
Yeah, you knew I was going to call today and
my poor radio wife. We got to put away all
the sharp objects in Minnesota. Holy smokes. Yeah, they burned
in the last minute.
Speaker 1 (28:14):
How's that? How's that marriage going between you and Regina?
Are you guys going strong there?
Speaker 8 (28:19):
Oh yeah, I'm going to be going up to Minnesota
on these days.
Speaker 1 (28:23):
I got to a strong marriage. If you're going to
go visitor, well.
Speaker 8 (28:27):
Thank you very much for closing, uh, closing that game
out in Minnesota.
Speaker 1 (28:32):
That's right, we were there, We were hanging out. There's
no doubta clearly, Mariano Rivera.
Speaker 8 (28:39):
When when are you going to get the suits over
their fat asses and get a affiliate here in Chicago?
We got six million rabbits.
Speaker 2 (28:49):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (28:49):
We have a bunch of people that call from Chicago.
Now you used to be the only guess you did. Yeah,
you got we do, phoebe.
Speaker 2 (28:59):
Uh.
Speaker 8 (28:59):
Yeah, we have a little radio station near Juliet has
a triple A battery.
Speaker 1 (29:05):
It's actually it's actually a double A battery, not a
triple I get it right. It's a double A battery. Yes,
we spend a lot of money on batteries. We go
down to Costco and buy a big packed batteries to
keep that thing on the air.
Speaker 8 (29:16):
Okay, what seems to be the problem. Okay, we got
ESPN here. We got to score all those bust outs
over there. Okay, we need Fox here and.
Speaker 1 (29:28):
We're there, Doc. You just don't use modern technology, that's
the problem. You can hear the show in Chicago on
the iHeartRadio app, on satellite radio. There's a bunch of
ways you can hear the show.
Speaker 8 (29:39):
Why does Milwaukee have an affiliate in this little town.
I think it's key.
Speaker 1 (29:44):
I don't work in that depart What do you want
me to say, Doc, I don't know. How about you
buy a radio station in Chicago and put us on.
How about that they're selling cheap these days. Anyway you
can get one for like fifty bucks. Buy a radio station,
put us on.
Speaker 8 (29:58):
I'm being at the school.
Speaker 1 (30:00):
I didn't say the score by some other station.
Speaker 8 (30:04):
You're a band too.
Speaker 1 (30:06):
Because of you, we killed by association, Doc. We've been
banned for like fifteen years.
Speaker 8 (30:15):
We don't want to talk about epileptics and diabetics, you know.
Speaker 1 (30:19):
Dotez on a sports station. A. I got it, thank you.
I gotta leave time because we have Malard Militia feud.
By the way, the mother of all stats, Tommy DeVito,
Tommy DeVito has more multi touchdown games in his career
than Kenny Pickett. Tommy DeVito, Tommy fan de Veto. Yeah,
(30:44):
that's true. I'm making that that is the mother of
all stats.
Speaker 5 (30:47):
But Kenny Picketts win loss records better than him.
Speaker 1 (30:50):
That's not a quarterback stat.
Speaker 5 (30:51):
Yes it is, No, it is.
Speaker 1 (30:53):
That is incorrect, And I think the fact that the
Cleveland Browns won a game where their quarterback had a
passer rating of fifty proves it's not a quarter they
want in spite of the quarterback, not because of the quarterback.
All right, is the Ben Malor Show. If you would
like to play eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox
will have a quick game with the Maler Militia feud.
We'll get to that. We'll do it next.

Hundred people name sports teams associated with losing.

Forty points.
Speaker 3 (32:09):
It's maler militia fute.
Speaker 1 (32:14):

I go one for.
Speaker 8 (32:26):
One and you guys already kicked me off the show.
Speaker 1 (32:28):
No, no, no, no, we had to dump you earlier
because you've got a dirty mouth. Tony. But hold on,
you'll play the game. And we have Paul in North Carolina.
Good morning, Paul, Thank you, morning Ben.
Speaker 8 (32:39):
How are you?
Speaker 1 (32:40):
If I was any better, I'd be a doc, But
not Doc Mike because he was already on the air
and we're done with him. So are you ready to
go here?
Speaker 8 (32:47):
Paul?
Speaker 1 (32:47):
Yes, all right, very exciting. Here we go. Uh, let's
see one, two or three? Cold? What do you think here? One,
two or three? Which category will we pick? Inquiring minds
would like to know. Yeah, all right, he's debating, he's
thinking about it. He's deciding one, two or three? Number two?
All right, name an excuse. One hundred people surveyed name
(33:10):
an excuse that bosses are probably tired of hearing for
late employees. Your name is your buzzy. You want to
go first, Tony, Paul, anybody who wants in Paul, Yes, Paul,
what's the answer? Traffic? Is that?
Speaker 3 (33:25):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (33:26):
That is the number one answer, Yes, slow traffic. All right,
you go again, Paul. Top four answers on the board.
Now the top three answers are left. Name an excuse
that bosses are probably tired of hearing from late employees.
Speaker 2 (33:41):
Family emergencation.
Speaker 1 (33:43):
No, that is not on this strike one. We'll go
over to Tony in the bay. Name an excuse that
bosses are probably tired of hearing from late employees. Hold on, Tony,
what even on the air? Oh now, wow, we lost Paul.
What the hell's got on here? My god, Tony, Go ahead, Tony.
(34:04):
Car problems, car problems? That yeah, that is on there.
Car problems. You got that one right, fourteen points. Go
ahead again, Tony. Name an excuse that bosses are probably
tired of hearing from late employees. We have slow traffic.
That was guessed by Paul, and car trouble.
Speaker 8 (34:22):
Uh stillness, Yes.
Speaker 1 (34:25):
That is also on there. Good job by you. That
was the number two answer. Wasn't feeling well. One answer
left name an excuse that bosses are probably tired of
hearing from late employees.
Speaker 8 (34:36):
A appointment huh not appointment.
Speaker 1 (34:40):
No, that is incorrect, Paul. You are back quickly, Paul.
What's the next answer? Last one, I didn't know the schedules.
Oh okay, the answer was alarm didn't go off. The
alarm didn't go off. But you win, Paul, because you
got the higher answer,
Hello and welcome. Here we go, it's our number four.
The time has come. The court of Malor, the kangaroo
court of the overnight has been called, and we will
be firing an NFL head coach. You now own the commanders.
You make the call. What do you do with Ron
(00:20):
Rivera after a stunner ten point favorites losing at home
to Tommy DeVito and the Giants? Also, should the Lions
be concerned with Jared Goff? Yeah, they beat the Bears,
but Jared Goff throwing a bunch of interceptions in that game.
And how do you digest this latest stinky performance by
Bryce Young in the Carolinas. We'll talk about all that
(00:41):
and more right now here it is. Have a wonderful
start to your week. Here it's Thanksgiving week. Ah My crazy,
isn't it? Here we go, it's our number four. A
fight song back in the day for a certain NFC
team was Hail to victory. Now it's hail too stinkage.
Wel come, in the beginning of another hour of the
(01:08):
Ben Malor Show. We are in the a everywhere in
the passengers seat as we provide an audio compass coast
the coast, border, the border and beyond on the mast
and strappingly powerful microphones of fsre mminating live from the park,
(01:32):
the trailer park of the audio schedule overnights, we are
broadcasting live from the tire rack dot com studios. Tyraq
dot com will help you get there in unmatched selection,
fast free shipping, free road hazard protection and over ten
thousand recommended installers tyrat dot com. The way tire buying
should be. Sunday night game, We're not gonna lead with that.
(01:53):
It goes to the Denver Broncos. A late drive touchdown
pass by Russell Wilson as Denver offensively only scored twelve
points without the benefit of turnovers. The vikings that Bronco's
on a burner right now as the other team very generous.
So the Broncos have the longest winning streak in the
NFL and they are sneaking their way back into playoff
(02:14):
contention in the AFC. There's also a story we'll see
how big this gets out of New York tabloids in
New York New York Post reporting that they're naming names
here guy accusing NFL legend Joe Namath of Joe paternal
like activity that story developing on a Sunday night in
the overnight. We'll see if that story has legs today.
(02:36):
But a person naming names saying that Joe Namath at
a football camp fifty one years ago should have known
that there was some untort things, some terrible things that
were going on. So we'll see ivanning comes to that.
But are lead this hour coming out of Washington, outside
the Beltway, Outside the Beltway, the Giants and the Commanders
(03:00):
East Donnybrook. This game not expected to be much of
a game at all. The oddsmakers had the Washington football
team a double digit favorite. By the time the game
kicked off. It was at nine and a half. That's
a massive points, but yet many did not think it
was big enough. Why have you seen the Giants? Have
(03:21):
just seen the Giants recently? My god? So how did
that work out? Well, if you didn't watch it, obviously
we're talking about it. The Giants third string quarterback Tommy DeVito,
who looked like he should be working at a movie
theater selling popcorn. Tommy DeVito performed like a competent quarterback,
like he was back at Illinois, throwing touchdown passes against Indiana.
(03:45):
It was ridiculous thirty one to nineteen up Set City
as the Washington football team, an almost double digit favorite,
lose by twelve points. De Vito completed eighteen PA of
a two hundred and forty six yards, three touchdowns, no interceptions.
He was sacked nine times and still had three touchdowns
(04:09):
no interceptions. The better story is in the losing locker room, though,
in reports circling all night here in the overnight as
we keep track of these things, that there is a
coaching change pending that Ron Rivera is about to exit. Now,
I hadn't been fired as far as we know, at
least we haven't seen it yet. If it has happened,
these are the kind of things that normally happened at
(04:30):
the crack of the sunrise. We're not quite there yet.
So anyway, Ron Rivera under siege. He is under siege,
and it could be the second coach fired after Josh
mcdummy was let go by the Las Vegas football team.
So let us discuss the question. You now own, through
(04:51):
the powers invested to me, the powers invested in me
by the radio gods, you now own the Washington Commanders. Congratulations,
we're in the twilight zone. You now own the Washington Commanders.
You make the call, do you fire Ron Rivera today
(05:12):
or do you keep and the kangaroo court will be
activated here, the kangaroo court of mal I've got employee handbook,
DeLorean and rubbers stamp. Employee handbook, DeLorean and rubber stamp,
and we'll tie all of these things together and we're
going to make an honest politician, which does not exist.
(05:33):
They don't by definition. Politician and honest don't exist. And
if you live in DC, you know what I'm talking about.
So all right, so to kick off here to answer
the question, I'm now the commissioner of the NFL, I'm
now the owner of the Washington football team and all that,
and it's my decision. I've activated the kangaroo court of
(05:54):
the Malad militia. And the only reasonable thing to do
here is to get out a guillotine, a coaching guillotine,
and bye bye, see you later, get out of here
right now. Rivera's coached a long time in the NFL,
was in Carolina for a number of years, and now
(06:14):
he's he's in Washington, and people seem to like Ron Rivera.
It's pretty smooth with the media, but This is a
no brainer. This is open and shut. The jury is in.
We are surprised that he hasn't already been fired yet
we're to fighting him right after the game. Say hey, Ron,
don't come back to work tomorrow. We're good because if
(06:35):
you look at the employee handbook for every NFL team,
by this case Washington. You look at that employee handbook
for the Washington football team, he's already committed at least
two fireable offenses. What has Ron Riverra done, all right?
The first thing he checks all the boxes there poor
work performance. Look at his all time record as coaching Washington,
(06:57):
poor work performance. The other one is in some ordination,
and that would be turning Tommy de Vito into a
successful NFL quarterback, doing the impossible, not just a little
bit better, light years better. And so that is what's
known as disrespectful behavior. Is what it is. It's disrespectful behavior.
(07:20):
If you look at the body of work. The Commanders
have lost seven of their last nine games, seven to
the last nine games. They started the season two and zero,
but they've lost seven of the last nine. Washington has
only been able to beat one team with a above
five hundred record. That was the Atlanta Falcons who are
now under five hundred. You understand what I'm saying. So
(07:44):
we advise Ron Rivera to pick up the Manila envelope
with his name on it from HR and there'll be
further instructions on how to pick up his severance and
where to leave his belongings and all of that. And
it's just ready. It's just ready to be made here
now because you get rid of you got a new owner.
You get rid of Rivera, and you slide up Eric Benemy.
(08:07):
Now I don't know whether b Enemy can be a
head coach or not. Who knows. He's been passed over
by every team in the NFL multiple times, it seems.
But Eric Benemy, who was in Kansas City and now
he's in Washington and all that, you can give him
an opportunity for the final six weeks of the NFL
season to be the interim head coach and see whether
you like the guy or not. If not, you bring
somebody else in, like Bill Belichick. But that's the move
(08:29):
to make. That is the move to make. If you're
the Washington football team, you get rid of Ron Vera.
The Malar Kangaroo Court has voted Now furthermore, we pivot
to Detroit and the boo birds were a chirpin' Is
this the first time, first time recently anyway, that Jared
Goff has been serenaded with boo flat? The Lions quarterback
(08:51):
throwing three interceptions in this game and then eventually was
able to rally the Detroit football team past the woebegone
Fedech Chicago Bears thirty one to twenty six. He come
from behind win as the bad news Bears go down
on the losing side. Now even in victory, though even
in victory for the Lions, the quarterback play shaky. So
(09:15):
the question is should the Lions be concerned with Jared Goff?
Are we at the part of the story where there's
legitimate concern for Jared Goff? And I am nodding my head. Yes,
I admit that I have a little Jared Goff PTSD
from his days with the Rams, and he played much
(09:37):
better than I ever imagined with the Lions. But Detroit
fancies themselves a heavyweight contender in the NFC. Now, whether
that's true or not, that's up for debate. The Eagles
currently of the number one team, But should the Eagles
lose to the Kansas City football team. Then I'll shake
things up a little bit, and you look around, Niners
lost three games in a row, but they're back now,
(09:58):
They've got their guys back. So system quarterbacks, mister perfect.
You look around and say, but Jared Goff is regressing.
Is whether you like the guy or not, Jared Goff
is regressing. And if you take a spin in the
DeLorean from Back to the Future, you go into the Dolorean.
This particular game, from what I saw of it was
(10:19):
a throwback because Jared Goff had three interceptions in this game,
first time since he was a RAM in twenty nineteen,
first time since he was a RAM in twenty nineteen,
and he threw picks on the first two possessions. Now,
the Jared Goff apologisis say, well, you know, the first interception,
it was a tip pass tight end Sam Laporta. Is
(10:41):
that really the fault of Jared Goff? But there were
also a couple of interceptions the Bears defenders dropped that
were just perfect interceptions. And so it continues a recent
pattern the last month for Jared Goff, a wobbly quarterback play.
What is my evidence the last four weeks Jared Goff
(11:05):
has been averaging six point four yards per pass, which
is not good seven's average, and has as many touchdowns
as he does interceptions, and a passer rating of below
eighty two rememb one hundred's good. Eighty below eighty two
is not good. That's not championship level quarterback play from
Jared Donn's not now. Is this just merely a couple
(11:26):
of bad games? Or is this the return of the
guy who we thought he was and the reason the
Rams traded him in multiple draft picks to get rid
of him, to get Matthew Stavords so they could win
a Super Bowl, and they gotta find a out. Obviously,
they got to bring him up to code. If you're
the Lions, you got to bring him up to code.
But you got to do better and be better. Our
(11:47):
parting shot, we head to down the road from the
Great Smoky Mountains, well several miles down the road the
NFL's worst team. Who are they? That would be the
Carolina Panthers, who were char broiled by the Dallas Cowboys
thirty three to ten. The game was supposed to be
a route and it lived up to the billing, as
(12:08):
the Panthers were getting a bunch of points. Now, I
did take the Panthers, and I look like an idiot,
But the I thought the Cowboys going into Thanksgiving week before,
they're not as good on the road. And Dak Prescott
didn't play particularly great. He didn't. I dink and dunk
Dak a lot of that, didn't average a bunch of yards.
(12:29):
But in comparison, Bryce Young, number one and the number
one pick in the draft, he had his worst game.
Yet he's not getting better. One hundred and twenty three
yards passing one two three as easy as ABC one
two three, one hundred and twenty three yards passing sacked
the season I seven times. No pocket awareness for Bryce Young,
(12:50):
no internal clock, none of that. And so how do
you digest the latest stinky performance by the number one
pick for the Panthers, Bryce Young. So this is what's
known as a rubber stamp, A rubber stamp. Give now,
what is a rubber stamp game? Bryce Young continues to
rubber stamp, which means validate that he should not have
(13:15):
been the number one pick. And the Panthers got absolutely hornswoggled.
They did, And I have not seen him look good
in one game this season I have not. And this
continues and he's not getting better, he's getting worse. He's
getting worse. And this is a total boondoggle of a
(13:36):
situation for the Panthers who put all their chips into
the Bryce Young basket. And he can't play like he
just sucks. And there's no light at the end of
the tunnel. If there is, it's a train on coming
and you're tied to the tracks. That's what it is.
I mean, here, here's a guy that should be selling concessions.
Get you not jog, Get you not Joe. Here we
(13:58):
go hot, not jog. Peanuts, peanut huh, pretzels saft pretzels, salt,
no salt, sft pretzels. But geez. Now, keep in mind
Frank Wright, the head coach, demoted himself a few weeks ago,
gave the offensive coordinator to play calling duties, came back
as the play caller for this game. Now, that tells
(14:20):
us that they're at the part of the story where
they're just throwing spaghetti against the wall seeing if any
of the spaghetti sticks. It's like, well, this isn't working,
so let me trust some other spaghetti. Let me bring
back the old spaghetti. Maybe we'll trust some fetuccini and
see what sticks. Maybe we'll throw ravioli up there and
see if that'll stick. I don't know. It is the
Ben Mahler Show. If you'd like to comment on any
of that, you can join us. Your lines are open,
(14:41):
speakeasy rules to apply, but we'd love to talk to you.
That would be great, That would be really really cool.
We have the mother of all stats. We'll also tell
you why Joe Buck and Troy Aikman are not happy,
not happy heading into the Monday night game, the game.
Speaker 2 (14:57):
Of the year.
Speaker 1 (14:58):
They're not happy, and there are things looking we'll get
to this later in the hour. For the top of
the NFL Draft. We had the Giants winning, they were
right up there. We had a couple other surprises. So
how's it looking at the very top of the twenty
twenty four NFL Draft. We'll get to all that, and
we will do it.

(16:58):
So who's moving on off? But who's moving down? The
NFL draft? Everyone about the tank. It's all about the tank.
And I'm disappointing in Moving Man Matt, one of our
great listeners, the man that put the Mallard name on
the back of moving trucks out of Boston. Haven't heard
from him much recently, but he's a big Giants fan,
even though he's in Boston. Loves the New York Giants,
(17:18):
and he's upset. He wanted me to unload on the
Giants because they beat the Washington football team and they're
supposed to lose. Well, the Giants do move down a
couple of slots, and as of right now, here's the
big board. The big board the top six picks in
the NFL draft. Tennessee is number six at three and seven.
(17:40):
They've lost three in a row, so they're doing good.
They're really blowing it. The Giants with that win dropped down.
They're three and eight and they drop behind the Bears,
who are also three in it. So the Bears would
have the number four pick. They have the same record,
but it's based on strength. The schedule in Chicago has
had a weaker list of opponents than the Giants have.
(18:04):
And then after that, with the number three pick. Right now,
your New England Patriots not playing that. They're a solid
two and eight and they've lost three in a row,
and should they continue to lose here, and if Arizona
can win one more game with Kyler Murray, then New
England would then move on up. Right now, Arizona's the
number two team and the number one team is Carolina,
(18:24):
but that pick goes to Chicago as the Panthers are
the one win team. Let's call the phones and we'll
say hello to Let's say hi to eeny meenie Mineum,
let's go to Dick, who's in Dayton.
Speaker 6 (18:37):
Hello, Dick, good, Ben and c Are.
Speaker 1 (18:41):
If I was any better, I'd be Jimmy Donovan, But no,
I will not because he was back. Is that correct? Yeah,
Jimmy Donovan you got a buddy of mine, my friend,
Bobby radio guy. He said, Dick and Dayton's gonna be happy.
Jimmy Donovan's back.
Speaker 7 (18:56):
Yeah, bum Tevin needs a Browns defense. Look pretty good,
didn't they.
Speaker 1 (19:00):
Yeah? Yeah, they looked all right?
Speaker 8 (19:02):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (19:03):
How about that?
Speaker 5 (19:03):
How about that?
Speaker 1 (19:03):
How about that quarterback? Though?
Speaker 7 (19:05):
Oh I liked that quarterback. But I thought at the
end that he was going to throw an interception. But
he used to cock pretty good, didn't he?
Speaker 6 (19:13):
I thought, do you think.
Speaker 1 (19:15):
He's the guy? He's in the next Bernie d t r?
What do you think?
Speaker 6 (19:18):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (19:18):
I think so, the next Eddie, the next Bernie. Kochar
tweet that out Coople, We'll put that on the Fox
Sports Radio twitter feed. That's nobody else has that take.
That's an original Dick and Dayton take. Yeah, that's a
great take right there. Dorian Thompson Robinson the next Bernie.
Speaker 6 (19:36):
How about the kicker?
Speaker 1 (19:38):
Actually, I think he's the next Bernie Fratto? I think,
is that?
Speaker 8 (19:41):
What's that?
Speaker 1 (19:42):
The kicker? Dustin Hopkins?
Speaker 9 (19:43):
Yes, yeah, Oh, I was good to tell you something.
Mostly I didn't know, but I listened to John Michaels
and Brad Daughery on the K I didn't know they
were on, but boy, they looked good.
Speaker 7 (19:54):
They were making their shots. I can't think of that
one guy. They got all those points. But he is
even saying to everybody there, he says, it's a good data.
He said, to be a Cleveland fan.
Speaker 1 (20:07):
Yeah, it wasn't every day to be a good day
to be a Cleveland fan. For you. You love being a
Cleveland fan. You're old, buddy, And have you have you
continued to mourn the loss of the Bengals season? Are
you getting over that Joe Burrow.
Speaker 6 (20:19):
Out the year two guy?
Speaker 7 (20:21):
I think this new guy, let's say you got what
Let's see next week. It's going to be close, but
I'll think they'll end up maybe I'm saying right now,
maybe eight, eight or nine, maybe two or three more,
but not so.
Speaker 1 (20:35):
You think the Browns are the Bengals rather actually win
games with Jake Browning as quarterback?
Speaker 6 (20:40):
Yeah, but they're not. I don't think you are, Dick, And.
Speaker 1 (20:43):
You're a cock eyed optimist is what you are.
Speaker 6 (20:45):
I am hard.
Speaker 7 (20:46):
Yeah, I always There's a guy in Cleveland that I
call every day and he says, every time I call
people in the morning, Dick, your predictions, He said, Dick
have been eighty per saying good. I mean, there's nobody
can predict in your your How do you?
Speaker 1 (21:05):
How are you so good at this? Dick?
Speaker 7 (21:08):
All I do is I I'll tell him during the week.
But I just make a prediction. And I think I
was off in one of the Browns games. But I've
just got that psychedelic memory. I guess right, let's.
Speaker 5 (21:20):
And maybe we should do a dick pic segment on
the Ben Malor Show. But me, I said, maybe we
should do a dick pic segment on the Ben Malor Show.
Speaker 7 (21:28):
Yeah yeah, And I hope Timmy Donovan.
Speaker 1 (21:30):
Calls because uh Eddie would definitely be in to that segment.
He would show up to work that day. I know that.
Speaker 7 (21:35):
I wanted to tell you, though, Ben, do you know
what happened to me? For two days? I got a
little I had a real bad it was going around
and I stayed home with a couple. It was it
was just real weak calling. It was a real bad
I went to a.
Speaker 1 (21:51):
Little Oh.
Speaker 6 (21:56):
Yeah yeah, but I no.
Speaker 7 (22:00):
Darn darn Codan helped me. But I never felt so bad.
Speaker 1 (22:04):

Yeah? All right, well there you go. All right, Well listen, Dick,
we love you. I'm so happy you called us and
blessed us with his phone call.
Speaker 9 (22:15):
Yes, Whatsgiving day.
Speaker 1 (22:18):
I'll be on leading into Thanksgiving, so I will be
here Thanksgiving morning. So yeah, well that's when we started
our friendship years ago.
Speaker 8 (22:25):
When you.
Speaker 1 (22:27):
Yeah, it has been twenty half. Can you believe you've
been calling me to twenty I can't believe it.
Speaker 8 (22:31):
Man.
Speaker 1 (22:32):
We love you too. All right, thank you, Dick, bye bye. Yeah.
I was doing a Thanksgiving show and Dick called up
to brag that he had Thanksgiving dinner. This is twenty
years ago for like five dollars. Wow.
Speaker 5 (22:43):
He just doesn't get any better than Dick and Turkey.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
You're on the edge. I like that, d your shock jock.
You know. I think that's what Sam was having a
heart attack. Yeah, oh yeah, Sam would have dumped all that.
But I think that's a good idea. We could have,
you know, Dick and Dayton pick games. We call it
the Dick Pic of the Day, and I think that's
a wonderful idea.
Speaker 5 (23:04):
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (23:04):
That's it. We should do it. And I promote that
we should make a promo.
Speaker 5 (23:08):
I mean he's he's excellent. He all these games.
Speaker 1 (23:11):
No other show breaks it down. No other sports radio
show gives out Dick pics of the day, No one,
No one does.
Speaker 3 (23:17):
Only be sure to catch live editions of The Ben
Mellor Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific.
Speaker 5 (23:24):
Rams score ten points in the fourth quarter rally pass
Seahawks seventeen sixteen.
Speaker 1 (23:28):
You can ram it out, that's right. You can ram
it all day. You can ram it all night. Free
loading at the RAM game, though, I had a good time.
They misspelled my name though, Eddie, Oh, they misspelled my name.
About twenty plus years of LA radio, I got a
TV show. Now they don't need the RAMPR department. Some
intern misspelled my name. They put an extra A instead
of an E in there at the end, malaw mallor
(23:49):
or malaar malar.
Speaker 5 (23:50):
That's a that's a new one.
Speaker 1 (23:52):
Yeah. So I told, uh, what's his name? Uh? Lead
a lap Lead deals with the Rams, and so I said, op,
so the Rams, like I check my email, there was nothing.
They send these things out via email, so there was
no pratt and then no press passing. So I realized
what they misspelled my name? That was the problem. I mean,
you know, it's a hard name to spell. Apparently, well
(24:12):
the company they.
Speaker 5 (24:14):
Have everyone even the first name doesn't seem hard.
Speaker 1 (24:17):
But they call me Bill Miller. That was the famous blooper.

Hollo, doc, you got the doc.
Speaker 8 (28:02):
Yeah, you knew I was going to call today and
my poor radio wife. We got to put away all
the sharp objects in Minnesota. Holy smokes. Yeah, they burned

How's that? How's that marriage going between you and Regina?
Are you guys going strong there?
Speaker 8 (28:19):
Oh yeah, I'm going to be going up to Minnesota
on these days.
Speaker 1 (28:23):
I got to a strong marriage. If you're going to
go visitor, well.
Speaker 8 (28:27):
Thank you very much for closing, uh, closing that game
out in Minnesota.
Speaker 1 (28:32):
That's right, we were there, We were hanging out. There's
no doubta clearly, Mariano Rivera.
Speaker 8 (28:39):
When when are you going to get the suits over
their fat asses and get a affiliate here in Chicago?
We got six million rabbits.
Speaker 2 (28:49):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (28:49):
We have a bunch of people that call from Chicago.
Now you used to be the only guess you did. Yeah,
you got we do, phoebe.
Speaker 2 (28:59):
Uh.
Speaker 8 (28:59):
Yeah, we have a little radio station near Juliet has
a triple A battery.
Speaker 1 (29:05):
It's actually it's actually a double A battery, not a
triple I get it right. It's a double A battery. Yes,
we spend a lot of money on batteries. We go
down to Costco and buy a big packed batteries to
keep that thing on the air.
Speaker 8 (29:16):
Okay, what seems to be the problem. Okay, we got
ESPN here. We got to score all those bust outs
over there. Okay, we need Fox here and.
Speaker 1 (29:28):
We're there, Doc. You just don't use modern technology, that's
the problem. You can hear the show in Chicago on
the iHeartRadio app, on satellite radio. There's a bunch of
ways you can hear the show.
Speaker 8 (29:39):
Why does Milwaukee have an affiliate in this little town.
I think it's key.
Speaker 1 (29:44):
I don't work in that depart What do you want
me to say, Doc, I don't know. How about you
buy a radio station in Chicago and put us on.
How about that they're selling cheap these days. Anyway you
can get one for like fifty bucks. Buy a radio station,
put us on.
Speaker 8 (29:58):
I'm being at the school.
Speaker 1 (30:00):
I didn't say the score by some other station.
Speaker 8 (30:04):
You're a band too.
Speaker 1 (30:06):
Because of you, we killed by association, Doc. We've been
banned for like fifteen years.
Speaker 8 (30:15):
We don't want to talk about epileptics and diabetics, you know.
Speaker 1 (30:19):
Dotez on a sports station. A. I got it, thank you.
I gotta leave time because we have Malard Militia feud.
By the way, the mother of all stats, Tommy DeVito,
Tommy DeVito has more multi touchdown games in his career
than Kenny Pickett. Tommy DeVito, Tommy fan de Veto. Yeah,
(30:44):
that's true. I'm making that that is the mother of
all stats.
Speaker 5 (30:47):
But Kenny Picketts win loss records better than him.
Speaker 1 (30:50):
That's not a quarterback stat.
Speaker 5 (30:51):
Yes it is, No, it is.
Speaker 1 (30:53):
That is incorrect, And I think the fact that the
Cleveland Browns won a game where their quarterback had a
passer rating of fifty proves it's not a quarter they
want in spite of the quarterback, not because of the quarterback.
All right, is the Ben Malor Show. If you would
like to play eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox
will have a quick game with the Maler Militia feud.
We'll get to that. We'll do it next.

Yes?
Speaker 1 (33:26):
That is the number one answer, Yes, slow traffic. All right,
you go again, Paul. Top four answers on the board.
Now the top three answers are left. Name an excuse
that bosses are probably tired of hearing from late employees.
Speaker 2 (33:41):
Family emergencation.

No, that is not on this strike one. We'll go
