Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello and welcome. It's our number four, our four, ready
to go, and it's all about the NFL here in
our number four, the forty nine Ers forty nine is
not showing any urgency with wide receiver Brandon Iowk's contract talks.
What does that tell you? And Damian Harris, a former

(00:22):
New England running back, says mac Jones is not responsible
for his failure with the Patriots. What's your viewpoint on
that one? And Viking coaches planning to take it slow
in quotes with quarterback JJ McCarthy, Where do you stand
on McCarthy and the slow road in Minnesota? All of

(00:44):
that and you never know what else. It's all come
your way right now, here we go. It's our number four.
Have a wonderful Monday, sitting around and playing the waiting game. Welcome.
In the beginning of another hour of the Ben Malors Show,

(01:07):
we are in the air everywhere, fellow townspeople, as we
have a thick ear, actually two thick ears, coast to coast, border,
the border, and beyond all themast and boldly powerful microphones
of fs are emmating live from the splish, the splish splash.

(01:33):

big number for Calligantim and Michigan. Tyraq dot com the
way tire buying shoes being are they This hour is

(01:57):
from football we so he can see that the NBA
Finals A lot of people into that, although judging by
the calls we've gotten here not the most entertaining, the
most compelling NBA Finals. The Mavericks the darlings of many
leading into the NBA Finals. The Celtics have won two
games last night. The game Sunday night was right there,

(02:17):
just easy for the Mavericks to take, and they didn't
take it. They didn't take they blew it. The Celtics
were shooting six of thirty from three point range to
begin the festivities the first three quarters and still even
with Jason Tatum sucking at a time he cannot suck
the Mavericks, who had more sucked than that, they end
up going down. But our lead this hour is from

(02:39):
the Pigskin World. Will work our way back to basketball.
Coming up a little bit later, all was quiet on
the Pigskin front. And that's not necessarily good news if
you're looking for a new contract. Some murmurs outside of
the Bay Area there not from not from the Kingfish
where our friend Alamy dlu Ten's bar. But I see it.

(03:00):
We learned over the weekend negotiations between the forty nine
Ers and Brandon Auk, the wide receiver who's looking to
get paid, well, they have not intensified. Oh, I know
you're devastating. You're very concerned about another person's money. To
the situation. Now, the two sides are not close to
getting a deal done. There had been some chatter that

(03:22):
something was going to be worked out. The forty nine
Ers were contemplating a trade of Deebo Samuel around the draft.
They didn't end up trading him, so well, they didn't
trade him. They'll let's ride it out this year. But
Deebo Samuel is going to be gone after this season.
There's an out in his contract, and so the forty
nine Ers then must pay Ayuk. Well, I didn't happen.

(03:43):
He's going to play out his rookie deal and the
Niners did pick up the fifth year option, so let's
discuss the question the forty nine ers not showing any urgency,
no urgency with Brandon IoK's contract talks. What does that
tell you? I'll go first. So I've got station Wagon,
George Nori, and Walmart, and we will combine all of

(04:07):
these things together and we are going to make some
fried potatoes. Who doesn't like fried potatoes? All right? So
to kick off here the San Francisco front office, in
my head, that little cartoon bubble over my head. They
are just twiddling their thumbs on this particular story here.
If this was a priority, And one thing I know

(04:29):
from years in the radio business, and I know it's
not the film, but one thing I've learned over the
years in this business, and I think it's true in
any business. If something is a priority, you get it done.
If it's important to you, you'll get it done. If
it's not important to you, you will not get it done.
And that goes for anything that goes for your day

(04:49):
to day chores around your house, Like if the laundry
is important enough, you'll get it done. If the dishes
being dirty are important enough, you'll wash them and they
won't be dirty anymore because they'll be put away, and
the numbers are only going up, up, up and away.
And Brandon Brandon, IOKU. I don't think he's that great,
He's okay, but thirty plus million dollars, that's the talk

(05:14):
of the town that you're gonna pay him thirty plus million.
Everyone in this situation has gotten into the station wagon,
and the forty nine ers is now, well, you sit
in the back seat. You're in the very back of
the station wagon right now. It's not a priority. It's
just not a priority. And reading the tea leaves on
this situation. The niners and IOK, they're not close to

(05:38):
getting anything done here. And if you look at the
calendar app on your phone, they have not one, not two,
not three, not four, but roughly six weeks as the
crow flies, six weeks to hammer out an agreement, get
it sign sealed, notarized, and delivered through the DOCU sign.
And if that doesn't happen, then it gets really interesting.

(06:00):
Have the franchise tag, so they could always franchise tag
and they really don't have to do anything. But rarely
do teams that don't have to do anything actually do nothing.
All right, Furthermore, we pivot to an ongoing drama O
rama the fallout from Foxborough. Former running back of the

(06:20):
New England Football team, Damien Harris has chimed in on
what went wrong with the last great quarterback was supposed
to be the last great quarterback for the Patriots, Mac
Jones two years with the Patriots and El suco in
those two years as Patriot quarterbacks. So Harris says that

(06:43):
mac jones collapse, his downfall with the New England Football
team was not his fault. Say what yeah, Instead, Harris
is blaming the Patriot coaching staff, not Bill Belichick. No, no, no, well,
directly Bill Belichick. He's playing Matt Patricia and Joe Judge

(07:05):
that those two guys, dumb and dumber, are responsible for
the downfall of mac Jones. And he praised he currently
unemployed Josh McDaniels for his guidance his leadership in year one.
The former Patriot running back Damien Harris, though, saying that
Mac Joe's not responsible for his poor play on the

(07:27):
field and his absolute failure with the Patriots last season.
What is your viewpoint on this one? So I saw
these comments, I thought, well, I don't know. I talked
about Yeah, I'll talk about it, because this is right
in my wheelhouse. And when you get a batting practice
fastball right down the middle, you don't want to miss it.
You want to connect on it. You want to get
full extension, and you want to hit the ball to

(07:49):
the moon is what you want to do. And these
are the kind of stories I roll my eyes out
because it's like an episode of my guy, George Nory's
Coast to Coast and he parks right near me here
in the parking lot at the Premiere Networks building. But George,
you know, he'll talk a lot about shape shifters and
they can change their appearance and all that on Coast

(08:10):
to Coast the shape shifters, But in this case, it's
a spin off, a cousin of the shape shifter, the
blame shifter, and I hate the blame shifter passing the block.
The buck mac Jones last I checked, is grown up
kind of although I did see some photos over the
weekend that would make me question that. But the coaching
was it great? No, coaching was not great. Did mac

(08:33):
Jones make things better? No he did not. Was he
a beacon of light in the darkness? No, he was
the one that was kicking the light and making sure
the ball burned out is what he was doing. And
he sucked at a time you cannot suck. And Mac
Patricia and Joe Judge. It's fun to goof on those guys,

(08:53):
I get it, But they attempted to help Mac Jones. However,
Mac Jones was unable to show anything. That's the thing
about you said, Well, the coaching wasn't great, And I
get it's big part of football. I understand. I'm not
naive to that. But even in the darkest of times,

(09:14):
mushrooms grow in the mud at the bottom and it's
just terrible. But Mac Jones, there was no growth. There
was no growth here all right. Now, last thing here
we head to Minnesota. We are told the Viking coaches
want to quote take it slow with quarterback JJ McCarthy

(09:36):
this coming season. I saw, I saw this over the
weekn and cut my attention. So Sam Darnell, that we
were told has taken all of the first team reps
in OTA's with the Minnesota football team. So the Vikings
coaching staff their plays to slow walk their first round
draft pick. JJ McCarthy, Where do you stand on that one?

(10:00):
I'll tell you where I stand. I give this one
a shoulder shrug is what I do. And this comes
up all the time. We've talked about this a couple
of times already, and here we are in June and
we're still talking about this because why would you draft again,
riddle me this, batman, Why would you draft a guy
and he's in the first round and he's not ready

(10:20):
to play? And there's this this mishia. Guys, right, that's
sorry word this neurosis, that's the right word, This neurosis
where you're like, well, if you set up player, who's
going to be Patrick Mahomes, Okay, maybe he turns out
to be Jake Locker. There's no correlation, none between if
a player sits for a year and then comes out

(10:42):
and plays, they're going to be better. This is a
frailty of the human condition where people think, well, Patrick
Mahomes sat for a year or so, that's the way. No,
it's not. You remember that, but you don't remember the
ones that sat and then got an opportunity to play,
and we're terrible. And there are plenty of examples of
those that are out there, just as many as the

(11:03):
ones that turn out to be good. So the answer
to the question, Minnesota is loaded. They're absolutely loaded with playmakers.
You've got Justin Jefferson, signed, sealed and delivered. You've got
Jordan Addison, who was a stud in college and looked
really good in the NFL this past year. And now
the Vikings are visiting Walmart. They're going to Walmart, they're

(11:26):
getting some of that Gerber butternut squash whatever it is,
baby food, and they're like, well, let's just feed JJ
McCarthy baby food. McCarthy, you're telling me he's gonna stand
on the sidelines holding the clipboard there and watching Sam
Darnald week one for Minnesota. That would be demoralizing Sam Darnald.

(11:50):
The man saw ghosts Sam Darnald. But based on the
information that we have now, barring a Baffo Saco training
camp and really barring Sam Darnald just playing like Sam Donald,
then McCarthy's going to be the backup, and even Donald
should have some success. You would think with those playmakers

(12:11):
in Minnesota, that's a mess. It is the Ben Mahlor Show.

has decided not to wear the white Sox hat anymore,
even though they did snap their losing skid over the weekend.

Speaker 1 (14:25):
But they are bad. Actually burned it. D he burned
he told me off there he burned it. I bet
it's still burning. It's still burning. At this point, it's
like and I'll.

Speaker 5 (14:38):
Live from the tire act dot Com, Fox Sports Radio Studios.

Speaker 1 (14:40):
It's Ben Mallard. Team's bad. The announcers sucks. Is there
anything good about the White Sox? No, uniforms are still good.
You like the uniforms, but I miss those ones that
had the Sox across the middle, like the mid was
that mid eighties? Yeah, early eighties? Yeah, red white? They
were red white and blue back in the day.

Speaker 6 (15:02):
You want to hear a funny story involving a bad
baseball team, the Chicago Whites.

Speaker 1 (15:05):
Actually the Angels. This must be about the Angel. It
is about the Angel. Okay, what about the age?

Speaker 6 (15:09):
So as you know I said, I'm I'm boycotting the Angels.

Speaker 1 (15:12):
Yes, Kooper Loup was a big Angels fan. And then
when o'tani went to the Dodgers, that was a that
was a blow to you could not handle that, right, Coop,
that was traumatic event for you.

Speaker 6 (15:21):
That's right, And I'm taking like you know, I still
there's still my there's still my team. But I am
no longer financially supporting them until already Marino sells.

Speaker 7 (15:31):
That.

Speaker 6 (15:31):
Being said, I was kind of forced to go to
the game on site, went to a game. It was
my kind of kind of Yes. It was my nephew's
first ever baseball game, and so the whole family was going.

Speaker 1 (15:47):
Why why not take him to a Dodger game so
you could see a real.

Speaker 6 (15:49):
Team because my sister and her husband live close to
Angel Stadium.

Speaker 7 (15:55):
Right.

Speaker 6 (15:56):
But I went to the game, and I didn't buy
the tickets, so I'm still I feel like I'm still,
you know, supporting the boycott here.

Speaker 1 (16:03):
Did you buy any food? Oh? Cool? You supporting Arnie Marina?

Speaker 6 (16:11):
Is it though? Because it was one of those it
was like the cookie van things, so it's not like
it wasn't like an Angel stadium in that stadium, I
all right. Well, anyway, as I've mentioned on the show before,
I have not gone to an Angel's game where the
Angels have won in probably like three plus years. That's

(16:32):
I am just a cursed person.

Speaker 1 (16:35):
Well they haven't won in three plus years, so that's why.

Speaker 6 (16:37):
Well, so on Sunday we left, like my my nephews
like you know, yeah, yeah, and so we left like
the seventh.

Speaker 1 (16:46):
Inning and the Angels were losing.

Speaker 6 (16:48):
The Angels were losing. They tied it in the eighth
and then hit a walk off home run to win
in the bottom of the night.

Speaker 1 (16:55):
And you were pulling up your house about that time.

Speaker 6 (17:02):
Figures.

Speaker 1 (17:03):
Yeah, they technically did win, though not while you were there,
but they did right.

Speaker 6 (17:08):
They were losing when I laughed, and then as soon
as I laughed, the things turned around.

Speaker 1 (17:15):
All right, let's go to the phones and we'll say
hello to Angry Bill, who's in Florida. Hello, Angry Bill
in Florida.

Speaker 7 (17:27):
Good morning, gentlemen. I haven't had a chance to chime
in on this timy thing. If anybody thinks that this
guy was not involved in any way in this gambling,
Santa Claus is bringing presents to your house tonight. Okay,
the FEDS and the Major League Baseball Ben, how quickly

(17:48):
do you put this to bed?

Speaker 1 (17:50):
Oh, you think I'm gonna argue with you. I'm not
arguing with you. I think here's some funny guessess going on.
I think there was something going on. I don't know why,
but I don't think everything's Coach.

Speaker 7 (17:59):
Sure, it's impossible for seventeen million dollars to go loose
and goodbye. And you know where is the forty two
dollars that went for something else? Oh it's a joke.
It's a complete joke. I'm a Pete Rose reinstated. This
is a complete cover up.

Speaker 1 (18:15):
So this is all about ultimately, this is about Pete rosefied.
It's not about Altani. You don't really care about ATONI.
This is about Pete Rose.

Speaker 7 (18:21):
Do you know can you tell me? Can you tell me?
Under the wildly dreams? Okay, well, how quickly this went?
Number two? That this man didn't know that this guy's
taking money out of his account.

Speaker 1 (18:37):
Anybody with any IQ points would say that it's seemingly impossible,
especially knowing how bookies operate. Not that I would know,
of course, Angry Bill, because that would be wrong and
that would be illegal. But generally to get that kind
of bank roll, you're not getting that. The interpreter for Atan,
he's not making that much money, you know what I'm saying.

Speaker 7 (19:00):
I do know how bookies operat because I did them
with the New Jersey Bookies. It was every week you
got done on a Sunday night, Monday morning. They were
collecting their money or they were paying you your money. Okay,
this is this is no bad.

Speaker 1 (19:16):
Oh, listen, we don't disagree. Something was going on there
and they got swept under the rug. And but that's
what baseball does. Your guy Rob Manford Angry Bill with
the Astros, they were cheating people. Teams complained to Major
League Baseball thes was were treating. In the twenty seventeen
they investigated. They said, no, not that thing's good. While

(19:36):
they were banging on trash cans, they said everything.

Speaker 7 (19:39):
Major League Baseball knew they were going to have to
not only deal with Otani's lawyers, they were gonna have
to deal with the Japanese nation. This country is so
much behind them, Japanese people are so loyal to each other.
They were gonna have to deal with the nation of Japan.

Speaker 1 (19:56):
Well that's that's part of it. But it's also financially.
O Tiny's worth a lot lot of money to baseball.
So if they can do anything they can to help
all tany out, they would do it because he makes
them a lot of money.

Speaker 7 (20:08):
Complete cover up, all right, it could be.

Speaker 1 (20:11):
All right, thank you, thank you, way, hang up with yourself.
Let's say hello to Dave who is in upstate New York. Hello, Dave, welcome.

Speaker 8 (20:20):
Hey, good morning, cry baby.

Speaker 1 (20:21):
Ben Cribe, what are you talking about? What's that every
time you lose your cry? Well, hey, I don't lose
and b I think you might want to go to
the year doctor, because there's no crying that goes on here.
If I remember correctly, Dave, you embarrassed? Didn't you embarrass
yourself on one of these games? If I remember correctly, Dave,
is that what you're upset about?

Speaker 9 (20:42):
Yeah?

Speaker 8 (20:42):
I did imburse myself pretty bad. And I did drop
the fom uh yell on the full moon night, so yeah,
it was a rough night.

Speaker 1 (20:51):
You're blaming the full You're blaming the full moon? Is
that what you're doing here? Your cop that's her cop out,
that's her alibi day.

Speaker 8 (20:57):
It's definitely it's definitely your full bed because you do cry.

Speaker 1 (21:01):
There's no crying, jerk, there's no crying, you jackass.

Speaker 8 (21:06):
You're crying now, Ben, But I'm not crying.

Speaker 1 (21:10):
Show you cry. I'll show you crying. What's that?

Speaker 7 (21:13):
That's the way I'm calling. No, I want to take
the mellor oath.

Speaker 1 (21:16):
Well, I don't feel like giving you the oath. How
about that. Oh well, okay, I gave up just like that.
See that the guy gave up edy, just like that.
I said, No, he gave up. He is not.

Speaker 7 (21:31):
I'm not going to argue with your Ben.

Speaker 1 (21:34):
All right, how about you kiss the ring. I'll give
you the oath. How about that.

Speaker 7 (21:38):
I'm not kissing.

Speaker 1 (21:39):
Kiss that ring, Kiss that ring.

Speaker 9 (21:42):
I'm not kissing nothing.

Speaker 1 (21:43):
Kiss pucker up, buttercup, kiss the ring.

Speaker 7 (21:47):
Not happening him, buddy, do it right now.

Speaker 1 (21:50):
No oath. I'll do the oath if you kiss the ring.

Speaker 8 (21:54):
I'm not kissing nothing, Ben.

Speaker 1 (21:56):
No oath. Okay, I'm hanging up on you. Go away.

Speaker 6 (22:03):
Well.

Speaker 1 (22:04):
See now he's begging. Now he's begging. See now you're begging.
Why are you begging me? That sounded like Mark says,
that's a beg. What's the deal?

Speaker 8 (22:12):
I'm making a deal with you. You go one month
without calling the Clippers of the people Team, I will
kiss the ring and I will take deal.

Speaker 1 (22:25):
No, see, you want me to lie. The Clippers are
the People's Team day they represent the common man, the
working class. The Lakers are the elitists. That's what that's
the reality.

Speaker 7 (22:36):
No, Ben, you're wrong, Now you're wrong.

Speaker 1 (22:38):
I'm hanging go away board with you, sailo to Dick
and Dayton. Never board with Dick in date at all.
Hello Dick and day I announced it my my full Hello.

Speaker 9 (22:55):
Dixter, good morning.

Speaker 10 (22:57):
Where those people made you mad, didn't they?

Speaker 1 (23:00):
Yeah, but you don't make me mad.

Speaker 10 (23:02):
Hey, I can't believe the Reds have come on on
a little street here, and it's going to be interesting
because they play the Guardigans the Indians, as I know,
they're going to play them Tuesday and Wednesday, and they
might I know the Guardigans are doing well. They're about

(23:23):
twenty over five hundred, but this is going to be
a true test. But they went from last to I
think their second place now.

Speaker 1 (23:33):
Well the Reds well, and they're still under five hundred though. Yeah,
that's the problem. And I can't really get too excited
when you're under five hundred. You know that as a
season baseball officionato. But the Reds right now are tied
for the final wildcards two games under five hundred, and
your Reds are, as you know, are tied with the
Giants and Cubs and Cardinals. There's three or four teams

(23:56):
all a couple of games under five hundred.

Speaker 10 (24:00):
Yeah, they were talking about Jill Burrow.

Speaker 7 (24:04):
I don't know.

Speaker 10 (24:05):
I haven't been I've been busy with the playing music.
But they were saying something about him and Zach Taylor
didn't get along too good. And I'm when I called
the last time, when I talked to one of my
associates in Cleveland, account so they asked me about Watson
this year, and I think Watson will be okay, but

(24:30):
I think they need another quarterback, like I don't know
why that black who ever left, you know, he directed
them last year. But I'm thinking they'll do good this year.

Speaker 1 (24:42):
Well, as long as Deshaun gets his massages, I think
he'll be all right.

Speaker 10 (24:45):
Yeah, I think it'd be okay. I've been been playing
a lot of music.

Speaker 1 (24:49):
Benh Yeah, you've been in the summertime. Weather's good here
in June, July, August. There's a time for music in Dayton, Ohio.
And they have a bubbling up music scene in Dayton,
do they not. I mean it's a lot going on.

Speaker 7 (25:03):
Yeah, yeah, all.

Speaker 1 (25:05):
Right, well, thank you, Dick, bye bye. All right, there
it goes Dick and Dayton.

Speaker 5 (25:10):
Do you think he has any idea what you're talking
about with the Deshaun Watson thing.

Speaker 1 (25:13):
No, no chance, no, no, he's worried about going to like,
you know, the discount store, the one in whatever, a
dime store. What's the name of the old dime store
used to go to? You remember the name? He used
to say it.

Speaker 5 (25:28):
I just remember you'd go to like the he.

Speaker 1 (25:30):
Went to Goodwill another name of a store somewhere in
Dayton he would go to. I forget the name. Anyway, Yeah,
he's worried about finding some Cleveland brown sweater at a
store for like two bucks or something like that, which
I get, I understand. I'm worried about that. Anything older
than that.

Speaker 5 (25:50):
In tennis, we had twenty one year old Carlos Alcarez,
the youngest man to win Grand slams on three different services.
He was twenty one years old if won the French
Open on on Sunday. That went along with his twenty
twenty two Open US Open win on hardcourt and then
last year's Wimbledon victory on grass. Scotty Scheffler wins a
memorial for his fifth PGA Turtle title win. He has

(26:13):
won five of his last eight starts, and that is
the most since the Tiger Woods did that in two
thousand and seven, two thousand and eight.

Speaker 1 (26:21):
Is that it, Eddy? Are you done?

Speaker 7 (26:23):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (26:24):
All right?

Speaker 5 (26:24):
That's why you got fun facts.

Speaker 1 (26:25):
Well, yeah, I think this is fun all right Kyrie
Irving For those that missed it earlier, Kyrie Irving through
two games of the Finals, averaging fourteen points, two and
a half rebounds, four assists, two and a half turnovers
per game, and his true shooting percentage is thirty seven percent,
which is another way of saying he sucks. He absolutely sucks.

(26:51):
And he's now lost twelve straight games against the Boston
basketball team since he left the Celtics. Twelve straight losses
for Kyrie Irving personally against his own, his old team
back back in the day. And this portion of the

Guy, Luka don check this guy. He hit the reason
why the dabts Maverick sucks so bad. I found this out.
He has a radio station, guy body, Luka, doncick. He
looks like a guy that should be doing radio. You
don't look like a basketball player, you know what I mean?
And then I'm going by this guy, how would you,
by the way.

Speaker 1 (27:53):
How would you know that, Scott? You're blind?

Speaker 7 (27:55):
Oh?

Speaker 9 (27:56):
I've been following this all weekend, like non stuff. I've
seen Kyrie Irvan walking around the street to Boston. I
was like, i'm's going to pull a nights out and
say give me all your money because he thinks he's
respected here in Boston. I don't want him to think that.
Then last week I had gone to concussion. Before that
verbal octagon, I was like, not running at one hundred percent.
I had smashed the top of my head right in
right into like the arm of a bacco on the street.

Speaker 1 (28:16):
You know, even wounded? Was that your was that your
Willis Reid moment? Was that your flu game? Was that
your concussion game? Even short handed? You still won?

Speaker 9 (28:27):
And I like that guy texteds. Jack two is a
nice guy, you know what I mean. He sounds like
a good guy.

Speaker 1 (28:33):
Well, you like him because he made you look good
even with a concussion. He made you look good because
he pretty much gave up. He just said, that's it.
I can't can't beat this.

Speaker 7 (28:40):
It was it was easy.

Speaker 9 (28:41):
I just said a couple of things, made a few jokes,
you know, and then I was all done. But I
liked the Dodgers fans. They went to New York City
this weekend. There was five thousand of them. They had
to be escorted out of Yankee Stadium by the police.

Speaker 10 (28:55):
They were so routed.

Speaker 1 (28:56):
They had escorted Indian They got escorted Indian Yankee Stadium
by the They're like, there's a parade, bullies.

Speaker 9 (29:02):
Yeah, they met at Billy's at this far before. They
were all lined out on the street like all day long.
And then they yeah, it was I don't like to
see that around here, you know what I mean. It's
happening over at Friederally to John, John Henry said, the
Red Sox can't win championships because the fans I have
too high of expectations. They only win every thirty years.
That's not that ain't cool, you know what I mean.

(29:23):
I'm thinking that you should come here and go number
two on his boat and sink it.

Speaker 1 (29:26):
It's over here, right on the sho If I took
a number two in John Henry's boat, I can sink
this boat. That's a pretty big boat. I've seen photos
of the boat. It's a pretty large boat there. Scut.

Speaker 9 (29:36):
Yeah, it's right over here though. It's you know, I'm
having this big shuit in my neighborhood right now. It's
me versus all these old people. I've been leaving dog
poop around and they've been chasing after me, and I've
been saying, well, what do you want me to do
about it? You're harassing me? And then I asked them
what their names are, and they don't identify themselves. One
of them even threatened the police with me. I said, well,
you know, the police aren't going to do nothing about that.

Speaker 1 (29:56):
It's distinct Hatfields and the McCoy's blind. Scott is his
neighbors there on the north end of Boston. All right, well, Scott,
thank you. I must go hang up on you. Let's
say hello to let see you put them on on.
Our friend Andrea is in Berkeley. Hello Andrea. She's Virgo
in service on X formerly known as Twitter, and she

(30:17):
is chiming in here, and what will she enlighten us with?
Hello Andrea?

Speaker 11 (30:21):
Hello Ben?

Speaker 10 (30:22):
How are you?

Speaker 1 (30:23):
If I was any better, I'd be a MAV, but
not a MAV wreck because things are not going well.

Speaker 11 (30:29):
Oh yeah, I've been following that as well. And Luca
don Chick February twenty eight, nineteen ninety nine. Quite interesting,
but not quite as interesting to me as Caitlin Clark
being left off the Olympic roster. So I wanted to
put in my two cents about.

Speaker 1 (30:47):
Eddie's been all over that story. Yeah, he's our WNBA guy.

Speaker 11 (30:51):
Yeah. And she born January twenty second, two thousand and two.
She's a young in five planets in Aquarius, so she
has that kind of humanitarian aquarian very Could could it.

Speaker 1 (31:07):
Be, Andrea that there's some pettiness going on? Could that
possibly be going on?

Speaker 11 (31:12):
You hit the nail on the head. She has a
Pluto transit in Aquarius, and that's kind of a double
ed sword. Pluto is power, so it'll obviously transformed into
a position of great intense and powerful energy self expression
her life direction, but it can also attract power struggles,

(31:34):
people testing just how powerful you think you are. So
that is kind of like, you know, the ups and
the downs. Can't have the rainbow without the rain so
while it's.

Speaker 1 (31:46):
A time of imp don't have the rose without the thorns.

Speaker 11 (31:50):
Yes, yes, I like see that.

Speaker 1 (31:52):
Come on, yeah, Mark like that, Mark in agreement on that.

Speaker 2 (31:55):
Yeah, no that I like that.

Speaker 11 (31:57):
Analogy. Yeah, that'll work. So, you know, it's really personal
empowerment and regeneration and a lot of purpose and authenticity
that she's bringing to the game. But it is, you know,
rubbing some people the wrong way. And she you know,
Pluto can also be power struggles. So people are testing her.

(32:19):
And she got left off the Olympic roster and she
said something like, you know, she took the high robin.
But then she said, hey, coach, they woke a monster.
When speaking to the Fever's head coach, they said that
Clark told her, hey coach, they woke a monster.

Speaker 1 (32:38):
So when I wake up, I'm also a monster wake mind. Yes, exactly, absolutely,
I will very good. Andrea Virgo in service on X.

hello to her. She's got all the star charts out.
