Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello and welcome. It's our nub burfour, our four, ready
to go. It's knocking at the door. Don't bear the lead,
my man, don't bear the lead. We're not going to
bury the lead as we are rooted to the ground
here and Monty Williams, he is not rooted to the ground.
(00:20):
He is free to enter the transfer portal. He is
a one and done coach for the Detroit basketball team.
Reports say that Monty Williams was blindsided by the Pistons dismissal.
Is that how you see it? We'll discuss that. Also,
what is your takeaway from Charlotte Hornets guard Grant Williams
(00:40):
celebrating in the Celtic locker room after they had won
the championship. I know he used to play in Boston,
but what are we doing? And we'll go to golf.
Is there more to Tiger Woods being given a special
PGA Tour exemption for exceptional lifetime achievement than meets the eye?
We'll go there as well. That everything else, all of it.
(01:03):
Ready to go, have a wonderful Thursday, enjoy the twentieth
day of June. And here is our number four. Another
one bites the dust. Well, come in the beginning of
another hour. It's the Ben Malors Show. We are in
(01:25):
the air everywhere as we huddle up and close the
loop coast to coast, port of the border and beyond
on the bast and thunderously powerful microphones of FSR am
monnating live from the ribs. Let me tell you these
(01:46):
sports takes that we're serving stick to your ribs. We're
broadcasting live from the tire act dot Com studios. Tire
act dot com well help you get there in unmatched selection,
fast free shipping, free road hazard protection and over ten
thousand recommended installers. So our guy Calligan Tim and Michigan
(02:09):
loves that ten thousand tireraq dot com the way tire
buying show me. And speaking of Calligan Tim in Michigan,
that is where our lead comes from. The carousel, the
coaching carousel. And you could add another casualty of high
expectations and low results to the top of the pile.
(02:32):
I assume you've heard by now, but maybe not a
neutron bomb financially from pro Bouncy Ball. Monty Williams given
the full Monty, as he has been dismissed. His duties
are no longer needed as coach of the Detroit basketball team.
That is, one season after he was hired to a
(02:54):
job he did not even want. Williams finagled a six year,
set eight and a half million dollars deal to join
the Pistons last summer and his first season. If you
were to compare it to an event in history of
the world, it was like Chernobyl the reactor at Chernobyl.
(03:18):
The way the Pistons played a year ago, Detroit finished
last in the Eastern Conference. They won a measly fourteen games.
That's it had a record setting twenty eight game losing streak.
They were radioacting, and let's discuss the end of this
coaching run. So the question the reports are saying that
(03:39):
Monty Williams was quote blindsided by the Piston's dismissal, is
that how you see it? So I've got Dusty Rhodes,
mathematics and camouflage, and we'll combine all of these things
together and we're going to give you a lot of jibber.
(04:00):
Jabber is what we're going to give you. So to
kick off here, I am shaking my head. No, if
you can see me, you're a stalker. Although there was
a camera here in the studio. Monty Williams was only
blind sided. If he's been with Aaron Rodgers at a
darkness retreat, Okay, it has been whispered. We talked about it.
(04:23):
If I know about it, and I'm doing the lowly overnighter,
if I'm aware that Monty Williams is not guaranteed to
come back, how on God's green Earth is he not
aware of that? Come on? It had been talked about
in hush tones that this was a possibility. This was
a premeditated move by the Piston's owner. Before pulling the trigger,
(04:46):
they tossed it out to see what the public thought.
The fan base, all seven of the Piston fans that
are around, and they're like, would people like this? Would
people be excited about it? And the guy that owns
the Pistons, Tom Gores, He's a Michigan State guy and
that's his name. Blowing money is his game. Gores is
worth nine billion and he lives not far from what
(05:09):
we broadcast here, although it's over hill in Beverly Hills.
But he made his money in a private equity operation'
that's his playground. He's a guru in private equity and
he is putting his faith in Trajan Langdon, the old
the dookie from back in the day, Trajan Langdon. Imagine
(05:31):
the bill of goods that Langdon had to sell the owner. Yeah,
I think we should fire Monty Williams. And you've got
to cut a check and pay him all this money.
And so that's where his faith is now. As for
the full Monty Monty Williams, you gotta think somewhere at
a mansion. He's got a Cheshire cat smile from ear
(05:52):
to ear, from ear to ear. He never wanted the job.
He didn't And this is a great life lesson. If
somebody doesn't want to work for you, or somebody doesn't
want to date you, move on. It doesn't end well.
The Pistons were like, we got to get money is
(06:12):
no object. Will make you a godfather offer, and they did.
They made Monty Williams a godfather offer where he's like,
well I don't really want to coach your team, I
don't want.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
To live there. I'll do it.
Speaker 1 (06:22):
And now they have to pay the bounty, and ohe
what a bounty it is. And he's already off the island.
He's voted off the island. He's on the off ramp.
The numbers on this are just insane, as you are
probably going to work, many of you this hour, going
to work, getting up early to beat the traffic, some
of you at work, others of you coming home from
work after working the late night shift. But Monty Williams
(06:46):
for one season and fourteen wins, still has sixty five
million dollars on his contract from Detroit. But wait, there's more.
Now we believe that Monty Williams is I understand it
has another twenty million dollars that is going to be
paid out by the Suns. That money is bigger than
(07:07):
the Powerball lottery, the Mega Millions lottery now not combined.
Powerball last I checked was like forty five million. Mega
Millions was sixty one million. But those are the jackpots
as we are talking right now in real time, and
larger than every state lottery. Monty Williams is the new
Dusty Rhodes. He's living the American dream. He is the
(07:30):
American dream and of the rainbow stuff, pot of gold,
slice spread with Jimbo Fisher. Congratulations. You can have dinner
with Jimbo and you can tell stories about all the
money that you got. I remember years ago, I did
a rant about Larry Brown, Larry Brown's old basketball coach,
not the guy from the website, but Larry Brown, the
basketball coach. He got hired the coach the Knicks and
(07:55):
didn't last very long, and they ended up paying him
a ton of money. He's like, well, that's the dream,
and in comparison, what Jimbo Fisher is getting and Monty
Williams will now get, Trump's that and it's not even close.
Speaker 3 (08:08):
All right.
Speaker 1 (08:08):
Furthermore, we go to Boston by request. It has now
been several days. I want to point out that our
friend Alf, the Celtic opiner, tells us that the Celtics
are back in Boston. They only spent a day and
a half in Miami. But a former Celtic forward creating
quite the hullabaloo. He's being roasted for something that he
(08:29):
did following that confetti party the other night. If you
missed it, we mentioned it briefly. We were covered up
in Boston. I don't know why, but a bizarre moment
occurred as the Celtics were spraying the champagne, the confetti
was coming down. Everyone was hugging each other and saying,
we proved the doubters wrong. That is when former Celtic
Grant Williams popped up in the locker room partying it up,
(08:55):
having a grand old time at the Sawdust bar all teammates.
So the reaction has been overwhelmingly negative. But what is
your takeaway from the Hornets Grant Williams, that's what he
plays with now, celebrating in the Celtic locker room. So
it is the big e. It is emasculating. The rules
(09:17):
are rather obvious. I think it goes without saying that
if you're winning the title, you celebrate. If you're not
on the team, you don't celebrate. Over the last three years,
I have been fortunate enough, after an entire career of
radio never going to the Super Bowl, the last three
years I have gone to the Super Bowl. Now not
the actual game, but I go to the radio row
(09:40):
and that kind of thing. And we have interviewed a
number of athletes, some of them on the podcast, some
of them off the air, didn't even make the air,
and universally, every one of the athletes we talk to,
he said, oh, who do you like in the Super Bowl?
And are you gonna go to the No, they don't
go to the game. Unless they're in the game. You're
in the game. You don't go if you're not in
(10:01):
the game, unless you're Grant Williams, unless what are you doing?
The Celtics won, and that's great for them, but that's
not great for Grant Willams. And he's actually a testimonial
to his failures in Boston. If you follow the mathematics here,
Grant Williams is the common denominator. He was dumped by
(10:22):
both the Celtics and the Mavericks, who traded him after
signing him to a sizeable contract to the Charlotte basketball team,
and his claim to fame with the Ce's was a
great night of sports radio when he famously said I'll
make them both and then, well we know what happened.
Talking to talk, not walking the walk. And now he's
(10:44):
playing for the Hornets. And while we love the play
by play guy for the Hornets because he's part of
the Fox Sports Radio Alumni Association, they're not winning anything anytime.
And he brought a couple of his teammates with.
Speaker 3 (10:57):
Him, Hey, what are you doing?
Speaker 1 (10:59):
You want to see what it looks like when a
team wins a championship, Come on it. We'll put you
in the locker room. It's your VP all access pass.
All right, last thing, we now pivot to the world
of golf. Say why yeah? Bear with me. The PGA,
the Professional Golfers Association, recently made a big announcement that
(11:23):
Tiger Woods has been given a golden ticket for life
and Tiger Woods has been given a lifetime exemption to
all the signature events within the ecosystem of the PGA Tour.
They cited exceptional they said, exceptional lifetime achievement. Tiger Woods
(11:44):
would not have qualified otherwise for those events. But now
he's fine. He's good to go, and he may not
even participate in a lot of them, but he's allowed
if he wants to. So is there more to the
story that meets the eye? Is there more to Tiger
Wood's being given a special PGA Tour exemption because of
(12:05):
his exceptional lifetime achievement? And the answer is yes. The
answer is yes. And my advice to you is to
not be a room. I'm reading stories being written by
golf writers and they're like, oh, this is such a
kind thing and so wonderful out of the goodness of
the heart of the PGA Tour, And what a load
(12:28):
of manure. What a load of manure. Look behind the camouflage,
forget the smoke screen. The PGA Tour did this as
a hail Mary. They're not doing very well over there.
They need Tiger Woods, the ghost of Tiger Woods. And
he sucks at golf now, but the ghost of Tiger
(12:50):
Woods is enough to get people to watch at least
a few more people. And in those events, right, they
need anything. They get the signature events of the PGA,
the Saudi's Pilford, all the other stars just about and
so people have They have a disinterest in a starless
(13:10):
PGA Tour. And the TV ratings have been atrocious. And
that's the measuring stick to how you're doing in that business.
That's the thermometer that takes the temperature. And Tiger Woods,
for better or worse, is the only player, the only
name that gets the casuals. A little Tingling, a little
Tingley there, good luck. He rarely even makes the cut.
(13:34):
If they really want to give Tiger a special award,
a lifetime achievement, they should say he no longer will
ever miss the cut. He will guaranteed make it into
the Saturday and the Sunday and he's good fun fact.
I believe I'm correct, my math is right on this.
(13:55):
I think I'm right on this. But the last eight
Majors Tiger Woods has been in, if my math is correct,
he did not make the cut in three of them,
he withdrew because of injury in three of them, and
he finished, if not in last place, right near last place,
like a suburb of last place the two other times.
(14:17):
That's the current status of tiger Woods legend of the game.
But to use an analogy, we talked about the passing
of Willie Mays, and they talked about baseball. People talked
about Willie Mays with the Mets at the end of
his career and how that didn't go so well. And yeah,
all right. It is the Ben Mahlor Show. If you

But I'm dropped the plain No.
Speaker 1 (18:12):
You you're you're complaining by by saying you're not complaining,
you're complaining. Do you understand by by bringing it up,
you're complaining. That's a complain. That's a subtle complaint. That's

Speaker 1 (19:00):
Don't you kind of get the message, though, James, that
it's not really working out here.
Speaker 5 (19:06):
I'm just looking for a friend.
Speaker 1 (19:11):
I've heard stories about that, but I don't know. Sometimes,

you should shock.
Speaker 1 (20:17):
We have to wait. We have to wait for the Benny's.
We just had a Benny Awards show a couple of
months ago. But it would be very difficult for someone
to pass you by, very difficult.
Speaker 5 (20:27):
I know that if there was a serious moment of
the panel, I think Wardocia would be putting me number one.
Speaker 1 (20:38):
He would I think that guy Dave in upstate New
York is your biggest competition right now. That guy he's
he's a he's a dick. And Dayton is what he is.
He really is, rookie caller of the Year.
Speaker 5 (20:55):
No chance, remember he showed up.
Speaker 1 (21:01):
All right, you're mumbling I gotta go, thank you. Hang up.
Speaker 2 (21:03):
I'm pretty I'm pretty sure he's not meant, yeah, I
don't think that is almost never left the state of Ohio. Yeah,
he said, dick, shout up to the Mallard meet and greet.
Speaker 1 (21:14):
Well, there were, there were.
Speaker 3 (21:22):
Multiple dicks, and yes.
Speaker 1 (21:24):
We had a full house, but there were that was
not uh, you know, typically the only women that show
up with these things are dragged by the men. That's
normally how this works, right, They're normally the only women
that they're uh, they're just good sports.
Speaker 2 (21:43):
Laradas did for such a rude.
Speaker 1 (21:47):
We're gonna have them. We're gonna have a security guard
for Lareda. I want pepper spray on me as well.
Do not mess with me. I will bring my fish
gutter that I keep in my car.
Speaker 2 (21:56):
Okay, all right, love my taser.
Speaker 1 (22:02):
My taser is so cool. Yeah all right, well, so yeah,
that's let's sello to Keg drinking Steve. It only gets better, Eddie,
Hello Keg Drinking Steve.
Speaker 3 (22:12):
Welcome the Hour of the Legends.
Speaker 5 (22:15):
I'll tell Benny's full of it man. Listen, listen, ball
game Boston, Benny, what is the point of trashing crippled
tiger woods Man? You you are the ultimate I've figured
out you're the ultimate player. Raider because you know that
you're better than some of these guys that are making

nine million dollars a year of these morning jet shows.
But you got to get that that Benny and the
penny renewed, so so you can start climbing, climbing the
pole man?
Speaker 1 (22:47):

Speaker 1 (22:51):
What am I? What am I supposed to do here? Steve?
You want me to lie? Is how you you're asking

Tweet this out, Coop or send this on next key drinking.
Steve wants me to lie. He wants me to ignore.
You're the liar. I'm not the liar. You're the liar.
Please you lie about the Edmonton apologize that you lie
(23:13):
about the Edmonton Oilers. Apologize right now, all of your
rage is transferred towards decent kind players like Tiger World. Yes,
a classy man who would never do anything untoward. Yes,
of course, listen, Roy McElroy on.
Speaker 5 (23:33):
He has a lifetime exemption once you wins twenty twenty tournaments. Anyway,
so Tiger, they're trying to get Tiger over the Hub
for the all time record, that's what they're.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
Okay, what are you gonna. You're gonna You're gonna give
him a twenty stroke lead before every tournament. That's about
the only way he's going to That's the only way
he's going to get the record. Do you understand he
is d O and he done?
Speaker 5 (23:58):
Then, Benny, all he's gotta do is in one tournament.
Speaker 1 (24:03):
All right, all right? So here's what they do. How
about this? They move instead of the Masters in Augusta,
how about they play it in Myrtle Beach. I was
just in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. That is the miniature
golf capital of the world, at least America. So why
don't they just have a major that'll move the Masters
to a miniature golf course in Myrtle Beach. How about that?
Speaker 2 (24:27):
Just give them the record?
Speaker 1 (24:28):
Then, well, why don't you just wipe? Why do you
wipe the brown stuff off your nose and clean your nose?
How about that? He is the greatest of Oh my god,
they want the.
Speaker 2 (24:44):
Win?
Speaker 1 (24:46):
Man, Ah right, get get out of here. What is
this the hour of the stupid? Thank you.
Speaker 2 (24:54):
Now?
Speaker 1 (24:54):
Our guy David, the fried Daddy, he writes, and he
had a lot to say about some of the things
we've talked about overnight. He says, as far as Monty Williams,
what are you talking about? It'll never end well. Looks
like it ends well for Monty. Signed for six, worked
for one. I would be happy as hell. They should
have just let him have one more year to see
if he could improve at all. He says. Also, this
(25:18):
NFL lawsuit, which is sounding like it's not going well
for the plaintiffs, and instead the NFL is looking like
they're doing pretty well in that lawsuit, says David says.
The judge is corrupt. You know, he got a thick envelope,
is what he said, getting messages that people are impressed
that we're doing hot Tiger Woods talk on the radio. Yeah,
(25:40):
well it was either that or the WNBA, and we
chose tiger Woods out of an abundance of caution. We
chose tiger Woods. Well, we'll have a double dose of Eddie.
We're gonna have punck the world with the Edmonton Euler hater,
the man somebody talking about hate in greatness, Connor McDavid,
who just oozes goodness and Eddie spits a loogie at him.
(26:02):
But let's get over to Eddie right now. Wow, Eddie
that was on the air. Are you a lama? Which
one spits?
Speaker 2 (26:15):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (26:16):
I think they both do. The lama's known more colloquial
as a spider. That was also the nickname that Mikey Adams,
Boston radio legend, gave to pow Gasol. He said he
looked like a lama, and he did kind of look
like a lama.
Speaker 2 (26:32):
Could you imagine having the nickname the spitner? Well, it
depends what a lot of work, all right?
Speaker 1 (26:45):
Then?
Speaker 2 (26:46):
Hey, NBA news, NBA News. The Dred Piston's firing their
head coach Monti Williams after one season. They do it
just over two months after the end of the regular season.
I guess they had what do they have to think
about it?
Speaker 1 (26:59):
They were awful.
Speaker 2 (27:00):
Fourteen and sixty eight was the record.
Speaker 1 (27:02):
They didn't want to be at rational Yeah, of course
not no.
Speaker 2 (27:05):
No rash decisions after that. But the one reason why
they maybe should have kept him around was it, well,
they still owned sixty five million dollars, so maybe you
haven't earned some of that money. But no, the are
going to get another coach. And still if you're money Williams.
Speaker 1 (27:20):
If you're money Williams, right, you never coach again. You've
won the lottery, he'll coach again. No, why would you?
Speaker 2 (27:27):
Because see it's what he does. He'll still get paid.
Speaker 1 (27:31):
He's fifty two, Eddie, He's around our age, Eddie. He
could live the life of luxury for the next twenty
five years if he lives long enough and not have
to worry about work, and he's got enough money. I mean,
enjoy it.
Speaker 2 (27:44):
I didn't do it, but I don't think you will.
I don't think you will.
Speaker 1 (27:48):
It's not like a radio job, which is difficult, which
I will never give up.
Speaker 2 (27:50):
Eddy.
Speaker 1 (27:51):
I love my radio jow Ye.

Well, if you want fun, I'm the fun fat guy.
Speaker 3 (28:03):
Yeah. Yes, they're fun fact.
Speaker 1 (28:06):
Yeah. Question whether or I have a fun fact? Absolutely so.
The Seattle Mariners. Things did not go well for the
Mariners in their game on Wednesday. In one player, in particular,
JP Crawford, was ejected. There were consecutive pitches that were
outside the strike zone, high up and outside the strike zone,
but they were called strikes. He got upset. He let
(28:27):
the umpire know his thoughts. He got ejected. But later on,
here's the fun part of the fact. A random Seattle
Mariner fan had a pizza delivered to Progressive Field where
they were playing the game, and the directions were to
be delivered to the visitors clubhouse. So JP Crawford could
enjoy a nice pizza pie in the clubhouse. So that
(28:49):
is the fun fact of the hour. JP Crawford that
that reminds me. It wasn't fried chicken like the Red
Sox chicken and beer they're famous the pitchers who weren't pitching.
They were eating and fried chicken and drinking beer and
playing video games and all that. It wasn't that. But yeah, no, pizza,
not that. And pizza's the only thing I really I
don't like leftovers. But the one food I will eat
(29:10):
leftovers is pizza. Oh we are hungry and we are
hungry for more. I go big on the pizza. Love
the pizza.
Speaker 2 (29:16):
I love pizza.
Speaker 1 (29:17):
Leftover. Yeah, solid pizza is a leftover is a way
to go. Just put that in the air fire for
a couple of misput in the off and you're good
to go. Hey, are you ready for a new job

(29:37):
world right now.
Speaker 2 (29:41):
To a man who does not appreciate greatness, Eddie Yards
alright man. The Stanley Cup Finals still going on the
Florida Panthers against the Evans and Oilers. When we last
left you in our last Pucked the World episode, Florida
had a two oh series lead, winning games one and
two on home ice. They then took Game three four
to three on the verge of a sweep, but behind
superstar Conor McDavid, The Oilers have won the last two games,
(30:04):
taking Game four eight to one. In Game five five three,
McDavid hosting back to back four point games, first player
in NHL Finals history to do that. Game six and
Edmonton on Friday, and if necessary, Game seven Monday in
Florida on mon Enny.
Speaker 1 (30:18):
When the Oilers win, Eddie on Monday into Tuesday, I
will do an entire hockey monologue dedicated to my ed
mcton Oilers.
Speaker 2 (30:26):
Yeah, well, that's not gonna happen. So I guess you
should have one about the Florida Panthers, but I guess
you're boring. Not boring, But anyway, if the Oilers win,
it would be their sixth Stanley Cup title, first since
nineteen ninety and the first for Canadian teams it ninety three.
If the Panthers win, it would be their first ever
title in franchise history. Who doesn't want that? We're there
are a couple of notes as far as trades from
(30:47):
Wednesday to are You killing?
Speaker 1 (30:48):
You did not mention Connor McDavid the first player is
Stanley Cup history? Back to back four point games?
Speaker 2 (30:53):
Am we mention that thanks for listening, dummy, I wasn't
listening well. First couple of We had a couple of
trades on Wednesday, the La King shipped out disappointing forward
Peer luth tu Baugh and the remaining seven years and
eight point five million per season on his contract of
the Washington Capitals in exchange for veteran goalie Darcy Kemper.
Speaker 1 (31:09):
That's a bad trade. That's a bad trade, Eddie. That's
a bad trade for Washington. No, it's a bad trade
for the King. He's in his mid thirties. He's washed
up and overpaid. Bad job.
Speaker 2 (31:20):
Lightinga was in his twenties and he sacks and he's
making eight job five million.
Speaker 1 (31:24):
You trade. Don't let a fall in goaltender fall on you, Eddie.
Speaker 2 (31:27):
You don't care about who're getting bad contract? The hockey guy, Eddie,
You're an idiots. There's a bad contract the Kings just
got rid of and he didn't have to retain any
of the salary.
Speaker 1 (31:36):
You're just eating ridiculous, ridiculous.
Speaker 2 (31:40):
Thank you Washington, Thank you job for hands.
Speaker 1 (31:44):
Bad job.
Speaker 2 (31:44):
New Jersey Devil's acquired goalie Jacob Markstrom from the Calgary
Flames in exchange for a first round pick in twenty
twenty five and player Kevin Ball. Flames are going to
retain four point one two five million on marks from salary.
Vancouver Canucks side defendsment Philip Ronic to an eight year
contract extension. He gets seven point two five million annually,
and forward Patrick Lainey has asked to be traded by
the Columbus Blue Jackets. The team says it will try
(32:05):
to accommodate his request. Alexander Steen is in line to
become the first Swedish NHL general manager after the Saint
Louis Blues announced their front office succession. Plan Steen was
named special assistant to general manager Doug Armstrong with the
intent of taking over for Armstrong in twenty twenty six.
Then we've also came with Armstrong getting a three year
extension as president of hockey Operations through twenty twenty nine.
(32:27):
Columbus Blue Jackets fired their head coach Pascal Vincent, for
less than one season on the job, got to the
Blue Jackets to a twenty seven forty three to twelve record.
They finished with the fewest points in the Eastern Conference.
Columbus has now gone through three head coaches in the
last fourteen months, Bratt Larsen, Mike Babcock and Pascal Vincent.
Speaker 1 (32:44):
And I'm actually going to be coaching them in a
couple months.
Speaker 2 (32:46):
At wow, that's what bottom My god, I'm.
Speaker 1 (32:49):
A hockey guy. After my analysis of the Edmonton Oily.
Speaker 2 (32:51):
Fowuh yeah, it's the worst coach in NHL history. Ben
Maller San Jose Shark's promoted assistant Ryan Warsofski to head coach.
Thirty six year old, now the youngest NHL in the NHL.
I was an assistant for two years in San Jose
gets promoted. Sharks had the worst record in the NHL
nineteen fifty four and nine and an NHL low forty
seven points. Carolina Hurricanes are sticky with Eric Toulski as
(33:13):
their general manager. They remove the interim tag after the
departure of Donwaldell to Columbus. Toulski holds a PhD in
chemistry from cal and conduct a two year post doctoral
study at the Naval.
Speaker 1 (33:26):
Research advertisyty how does that help the hockey?
Speaker 2 (33:28):
He holds twenty seven US patents according to his team
Bio worked in the tech industry for a dozen years
and managed research teams for nanotechnology areas. I don't know
how how does that help you run a hockey team?
I don't know, but apparently he's smart. The sale of
the Arizona Coyotes franchise to Utah Jazz owners has been finalized.
Team will officially be known as the Utah Hockey Club
(33:50):
for next season until they figure out the nickname. But
the color scheme has been released. It looks good rock black,
which represents both the darkness of night in the mountain
in the volcanic rock of the Utah Desert.
Speaker 1 (34:01):
That's some pr hacks salt whites.
Speaker 2 (34:04):
That illustrates both the snow of Utah's peaks and they're
famous salt flats.
Speaker 1 (34:08):
And what whatj dot does on the weekend? Yes, and when.
Speaker 2 (34:11):
Mountain Blue, which represents the team's winter sports history and
it's clear skies for two hundred and thirty days out
of the year.
Speaker 1 (34:17):
That So you see did you see where the Ducks
uniforms of the new Dunk Oh, my god, they look
like gritty.
Speaker 2 (34:25):
They're gritty like orange. You like that?
Speaker 5 (34:27):
Wow?
Speaker 1 (34:29):
Other option?
Speaker 2 (34:30):
My god?
Speaker 1 (34:30):
What are they trying to be the Philadelphia Flyers? What
are you doing.
Speaker 2 (34:34):
Trying to be like Clemson orange? Orange? Man?
Speaker 1 (34:38):
I mean that clearly somebody colorblind came up with those uniforms.
Speaker 2 (34:42):
My god, least favorite color orange.
Speaker 1 (34:44):
I don't know if it's my least favorite color, but
it ain't. They don't look good. I saw a photo
somebody sent me a photo like that. Those are pretty ugly.
Speaker 2 (34:52):
Well, it does match their franchise, which is an ugly
They gotta.
Speaker 1 (34:56):
Go back to when I covered the Ducks Eddy they
had the purple that back.
Speaker 2 (34:59):
In the All Day they called it egg plants, the
egg plan.
Speaker 1 (35:02):
That's what they got to go.
Speaker 2 (35:03):
Back then they need to disband that franchise and just
you know, send.
Speaker 1 (35:06):
Them any Eddie wants one less hockey team. That's the world. Oh, Mike,
did you not give the NHL propaganda Eddie.
Speaker 2 (35:17):
That whole thing propaganda?
Speaker 3 (35:18):
No?
Speaker 1 (35:19):
No, no, no. The NBA ratings went down, but according
to the NHL, I'm sure they didn't spend these numbers
at all. They claim that across North America, the twenty
twenty four Stanley Cup Final Game five saw an increase
of sixty one percent from last year's Game five, and.
Speaker 2 (35:37):
Across the polist game on Earth and.
Speaker 1 (35:39):
Across North America, the Stanley Cup Final is averaging seven
point two million viewers. That is up sixty four percent
from last year's Stanley Cup Final across North America. Of
course they are spinning a lot of numbers.
Speaker 2 (35:53):
It's also on you know, ABC, so I'm sure that
didn't hurt.
Speaker 1 (35:56):
Well, no, but it's not. They don't in Canada though,
it's it's not on AB.
Speaker 2 (36:00):
See, they don't understand that we're talking about the United States.
You're not talking about Canadian teen ratings.
Speaker 1 (36:04):
No we are. They're including the Canadian television ratings, is
what they're doing. They're not just doing the ABC ratings.
They're including the CBC and whatever channels in Canada broadcast
the Stanley Cup Final. So they're spinning the numbers, is
what they're doing. But that's fine anyway, all right, we're
spinning something else here. It is the Ben Maler Show.

Hopefully Jack the judges doing all right, but both hear

that's say hello to Milkman Mike in Colorado. Hello, Milkman, good.
Speaker 5 (37:35):
Morning fan, great show at away.

talented and personator. You got the weed Man, you got Leslie.
Hold on, Milkman, Mike. We have Eddie and Charlotte. Thumbs up,
thumbs down, Eddie, we hadn't played that game in a while.
Hello Eddie, Hey, Ben, have to hanging.
Speaker 5 (37:59):
I gotta.
Speaker 4 (38:01):
Do gifts for you.
Speaker 1 (38:02):
All right, Well, I'll be here on the fourth of July,
so we can do that or before it if you want,
because I'm sure Eddie probably won't be here on the fourth
of July. All right, Eddie, hold lot of second. All right, buddy,
you're gonna be one of my judges. We have Flexus
in Buffalo. Hello, America's favorite drag queen caller. I I
want to answer range something. We don't have time. We
(38:23):
don't have time, we don't have to all right, three
stories figure out which the three isn't true. Story number one,
it's all over the field. Well, if you couldn't get
enough of Netflix docu series Quarterback, then you are in luck.
A follow up of the popular show, a spinoff new
series Receiver in July. It'll show Justin Jefferson, DeVante, Adams,
(38:44):
I'm on Ross, Saint Brown, Deebo, Samuel and George Kittle
unless it won't. And story number two The Mets All
about that purple drink. The Mets may have finally lost
after Grimace throughout the first pitch, but McDonald's isn't ready
to end the relationship. New York area Donald's Restaurants now
offering a Mets meal deal featuring a quarter powder with cheese,
(39:05):
medium fry, and of course, the return of the Grimace Shake,
but only in New York. And story number three almost
perfect The Chiefs super Bowl Ring full of diamonds, a
sea of diamonds inside, though there was a small mistake
the seating number of the dolphins was incorrect. Who goofed?
I've got to know, all right, real quick, milkman Mike
(39:27):
one to or three? Milkman number two? All right? Ednie
one two or three?
Speaker 3 (39:33):
Ednie number one, number one.
Speaker 1 (39:37):
How about you. Felexus one tour three. Felexus number number three.
All right, believe it or not, it is number two,
number two. The Grimmace Shake is not back in New York.
It is not
Hello and welcome. It's our nub burfour, our four, ready
to go. It's knocking at the door. Don't bear the lead,
my man, don't bear the lead. We're not going to
bury the lead as we are rooted to the ground
here and Monty Williams, he is not rooted to the ground.
(00:20):
He is free to enter the transfer portal. He is
a one and done coach for the Detroit basketball team.
Reports say that Monty Williams was blindsided by the Pistons dismissal.
Is that how you see it? We'll discuss that. Also,
what is your takeaway from Charlotte Hornets guard Grant Williams
(00:40):
celebrating in the Celtic locker room after they had won
the championship. I know he used to play in Boston,
but what are we doing? And we'll go to golf.
Is there more to Tiger Woods being given a special
PGA Tour exemption for exceptional lifetime achievement than meets the eye?
We'll go there as well. That everything else, all of it.
(01:03):
Ready to go, have a wonderful Thursday, enjoy the twentieth
day of June. And here is our number four. Another
one bites the dust. Well, come in the beginning of
another hour. It's the Ben Malors Show. We are in
(01:25):
the air everywhere as we huddle up and close the
loop coast to coast, port of the border and beyond
on the bast and thunderously powerful microphones of FSR am
monnating live from the ribs. Let me tell you these
(01:46):
sports takes that we're serving stick to your ribs. We're
broadcasting live from the tire act dot Com studios. Tire
act dot com well help you get there in unmatched selection,
fast free shipping, free road hazard protection and over ten
thousand recommended installers. So our guy Calligan Tim and Michigan
(02:09):
loves that ten thousand tireraq dot com the way tire
buying show me. And speaking of Calligan Tim in Michigan,
that is where our lead comes from. The carousel, the
coaching carousel. And you could add another casualty of high
expectations and low results to the top of the pile.
(02:32):
I assume you've heard by now, but maybe not a
neutron bomb financially from pro Bouncy Ball. Monty Williams given
the full Monty, as he has been dismissed. His duties
are no longer needed as coach of the Detroit basketball team.
That is, one season after he was hired to a
(02:54):
job he did not even want. Williams finagled a six year,
set eight and a half million dollars deal to join
the Pistons last summer and his first season. If you
were to compare it to an event in history of
the world, it was like Chernobyl the reactor at Chernobyl.
(03:18):
The way the Pistons played a year ago, Detroit finished
last in the Eastern Conference. They won a measly fourteen games.
That's it had a record setting twenty eight game losing streak.
They were radioacting, and let's discuss the end of this
coaching run. So the question the reports are saying that
(03:39):
Monty Williams was quote blindsided by the Piston's dismissal, is
that how you see it? So I've got Dusty Rhodes,
mathematics and camouflage, and we'll combine all of these things
together and we're going to give you a lot of jibber.
(04:00):
Jabber is what we're going to give you. So to
kick off here, I am shaking my head. No, if
you can see me, you're a stalker. Although there was
a camera here in the studio. Monty Williams was only
blind sided. If he's been with Aaron Rodgers at a
darkness retreat, Okay, it has been whispered. We talked about it.
(04:23):
If I know about it, and I'm doing the lowly overnighter,
if I'm aware that Monty Williams is not guaranteed to
come back, how on God's green Earth is he not
aware of that? Come on? It had been talked about
in hush tones that this was a possibility. This was
a premeditated move by the Piston's owner. Before pulling the trigger,
(04:46):
they tossed it out to see what the public thought.
The fan base, all seven of the Piston fans that
are around, and they're like, would people like this? Would
people be excited about it? And the guy that owns
the Pistons, Tom Gores, He's a Michigan State guy and
that's his name. Blowing money is his game. Gores is
worth nine billion and he lives not far from what
(05:09):
we broadcast here, although it's over hill in Beverly Hills.
But he made his money in a private equity operation'
that's his playground. He's a guru in private equity and
he is putting his faith in Trajan Langdon, the old
the dookie from back in the day, Trajan Langdon. Imagine
(05:31):
the bill of goods that Langdon had to sell the owner. Yeah,
I think we should fire Monty Williams. And you've got
to cut a check and pay him all this money.
And so that's where his faith is now. As for
the full Monty Monty Williams, you gotta think somewhere at
a mansion. He's got a Cheshire cat smile from ear
(05:52):
to ear, from ear to ear. He never wanted the job.
He didn't And this is a great life lesson. If
somebody doesn't want to work for you, or somebody doesn't
want to date you, move on. It doesn't end well.
The Pistons were like, we got to get money is
(06:12):
no object. Will make you a godfather offer, and they did.
They made Monty Williams a godfather offer where he's like,
well I don't really want to coach your team, I
don't want.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
To live there. I'll do it.
Speaker 1 (06:22):
And now they have to pay the bounty, and ohe
what a bounty it is. And he's already off the island.
He's voted off the island. He's on the off ramp.
The numbers on this are just insane, as you are
probably going to work, many of you this hour, going
to work, getting up early to beat the traffic, some
of you at work, others of you coming home from
work after working the late night shift. But Monty Williams
(06:46):
for one season and fourteen wins, still has sixty five
million dollars on his contract from Detroit. But wait, there's more.
Now we believe that Monty Williams is I understand it
has another twenty million dollars that is going to be
paid out by the Suns. That money is bigger than
(07:07):
the Powerball lottery, the Mega Millions lottery now not combined.
Powerball last I checked was like forty five million. Mega
Millions was sixty one million. But those are the jackpots
as we are talking right now in real time, and
larger than every state lottery. Monty Williams is the new
Dusty Rhodes. He's living the American dream. He is the
(07:30):
American dream and of the rainbow stuff, pot of gold,
slice spread with Jimbo Fisher. Congratulations. You can have dinner
with Jimbo and you can tell stories about all the
money that you got. I remember years ago, I did
a rant about Larry Brown, Larry Brown's old basketball coach,
not the guy from the website, but Larry Brown, the
basketball coach. He got hired the coach the Knicks and
(07:55):
didn't last very long, and they ended up paying him
a ton of money. He's like, well, that's the dream,
and in comparison, what Jimbo Fisher is getting and Monty
Williams will now get, Trump's that and it's not even close.
Speaker 3 (08:08):
All right.
Speaker 1 (08:08):
Furthermore, we go to Boston by request. It has now
been several days. I want to point out that our
friend Alf, the Celtic opiner, tells us that the Celtics
are back in Boston. They only spent a day and
a half in Miami. But a former Celtic forward creating
quite the hullabaloo. He's being roasted for something that he
(08:29):
did following that confetti party the other night. If you
missed it, we mentioned it briefly. We were covered up
in Boston. I don't know why, but a bizarre moment
occurred as the Celtics were spraying the champagne, the confetti
was coming down. Everyone was hugging each other and saying,
we proved the doubters wrong. That is when former Celtic
Grant Williams popped up in the locker room partying it up,
(08:55):
having a grand old time at the Sawdust bar all teammates.
So the reaction has been overwhelmingly negative. But what is
your takeaway from the Hornets Grant Williams, that's what he
plays with now, celebrating in the Celtic locker room. So
it is the big e. It is emasculating. The rules
(09:17):
are rather obvious. I think it goes without saying that
if you're winning the title, you celebrate. If you're not
on the team, you don't celebrate. Over the last three years,
I have been fortunate enough, after an entire career of
radio never going to the Super Bowl, the last three
years I have gone to the Super Bowl. Now not
the actual game, but I go to the radio row
(09:40):
and that kind of thing. And we have interviewed a
number of athletes, some of them on the podcast, some
of them off the air, didn't even make the air,
and universally, every one of the athletes we talk to,
he said, oh, who do you like in the Super Bowl?
And are you gonna go to the No, they don't
go to the game. Unless they're in the game. You're
in the game. You don't go if you're not in
(10:01):
the game, unless you're Grant Williams, unless what are you doing?
The Celtics won, and that's great for them, but that's
not great for Grant Willams. And he's actually a testimonial
to his failures in Boston. If you follow the mathematics here,
Grant Williams is the common denominator. He was dumped by
(10:22):
both the Celtics and the Mavericks, who traded him after
signing him to a sizeable contract to the Charlotte basketball team,
and his claim to fame with the Ce's was a
great night of sports radio when he famously said I'll
make them both and then, well we know what happened.
Talking to talk, not walking the walk. And now he's
(10:44):
playing for the Hornets. And while we love the play
by play guy for the Hornets because he's part of
the Fox Sports Radio Alumni Association, they're not winning anything anytime.
And he brought a couple of his teammates with.
Speaker 3 (10:57):
Him, Hey, what are you doing?
Speaker 1 (10:59):
You want to see what it looks like when a
team wins a championship, Come on it. We'll put you
in the locker room. It's your VP all access pass.
All right, last thing, we now pivot to the world
of golf. Say why yeah? Bear with me. The PGA,
the Professional Golfers Association, recently made a big announcement that
(11:23):
Tiger Woods has been given a golden ticket for life
and Tiger Woods has been given a lifetime exemption to
all the signature events within the ecosystem of the PGA Tour.
They cited exceptional they said, exceptional lifetime achievement. Tiger Woods
(11:44):
would not have qualified otherwise for those events. But now
he's fine. He's good to go, and he may not
even participate in a lot of them, but he's allowed
if he wants to. So is there more to the
story that meets the eye? Is there more to Tiger
Wood's being given a special PGA Tour exemption because of
(12:05):
his exceptional lifetime achievement? And the answer is yes. The
answer is yes. And my advice to you is to
not be a room. I'm reading stories being written by
golf writers and they're like, oh, this is such a
kind thing and so wonderful out of the goodness of
the heart of the PGA Tour, And what a load
(12:28):
of manure. What a load of manure. Look behind the camouflage,
forget the smoke screen. The PGA Tour did this as
a hail Mary. They're not doing very well over there.
They need Tiger Woods, the ghost of Tiger Woods. And
he sucks at golf now, but the ghost of Tiger
(12:50):
Woods is enough to get people to watch at least
a few more people. And in those events, right, they
need anything. They get the signature events of the PGA,
the Saudi's Pilford, all the other stars just about and
so people have They have a disinterest in a starless
(13:10):
PGA Tour. And the TV ratings have been atrocious. And
that's the measuring stick to how you're doing in that business.
That's the thermometer that takes the temperature. And Tiger Woods,
for better or worse, is the only player, the only
name that gets the casuals. A little Tingling, a little
Tingley there, good luck. He rarely even makes the cut.
(13:34):
If they really want to give Tiger a special award,
a lifetime achievement, they should say he no longer will
ever miss the cut. He will guaranteed make it into
the Saturday and the Sunday and he's good fun fact.
I believe I'm correct, my math is right on this.
(13:55):
I think I'm right on this. But the last eight
Majors Tiger Woods has been in, if my math is correct,
he did not make the cut in three of them,
he withdrew because of injury in three of them, and
he finished, if not in last place, right near last place,
like a suburb of last place the two other times.
(14:17):
That's the current status of tiger Woods legend of the game.
But to use an analogy, we talked about the passing
of Willie Mays, and they talked about baseball. People talked
about Willie Mays with the Mets at the end of
his career and how that didn't go so well. And yeah,
all right. It is the Ben Mahlor Show. If you
would like to be part, you can join us here.
(14:38):
Speakeasy rules are in effect, but there are lines open
and you can fill them up right now. Also on
X at Ben Mahlor, that is at Ben Mahlor, we
will punk Bewell with a guy that disrespected Connor McDavid
and my Edmonton oilers, and he's going to be eating
crow shortly. We'll have park World with Eddie and we'll
(15:01):
get to that. We will do it next.

The grocery business his entire life, and he's the guy.
He's the grocery cart whisper is what he is? Berg
Doug says, Ben, I hope you are going to fact
check Eddie's puck the world in real time. We all
know it's going to be full of Florida panther propaganda.
It's up to you, Ben to keep the show fair
and malluch. I will do my darnness. I will absolutely
(17:27):
do everything in my power to not allow Eddie Garcia
to boulguard the content. Donut Kelly writes in and she
responds to something Lorraina said earlier. She says, Britney Spears
is my spirit animal. There you go. Yes, so all
you girls that when Britney Spears was big. Now you're
all women now, but when she was big, that was
your your go to? Is that correct? Such a queen? Okay,
(17:52):
all right, I got you. That's the timeline. All right,
let's go to the phones and let's see who do
you have your eenie meeting money? Both say lo to
hollering James in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Hello, hollering James, you don't.
Speaker 5 (18:07):
Have many times I got dropped, but don't drop me down.
But I'm dropped the plain No.
Speaker 1 (18:12):
You you're you're complaining by by saying you're not complaining,
you're complaining. Do you understand by by bringing it up,
you're complaining. That's a complain. That's a subtle complaint. That's
a passive aggressive complaint. I'm always in passive aggressive.

No, man, it ain't worth it. Why should I change around?
Speaker 1 (19:00):
Don't you kind of get the message, though, James, that
it's not really working out here.
Speaker 5 (19:06):
I'm just looking for a friend.
Speaker 1 (19:11):
I've heard stories about that, but I don't know. Sometimes,
you know, you shouldn't tell potential friends that they're full
of themselves. Oh maybe that's why you have no friends?
Speaker 5 (19:20):
Oh with Lorena.
Speaker 2 (19:33):

Bet you got to give me that Benny. I mean,
you should shock.
Speaker 1 (20:17):
We have to wait. We have to wait for the Benny's.
We just had a Benny Awards show a couple of
months ago. But it would be very difficult for someone
to pass you by, very difficult.
Speaker 5 (20:27):
I know that if there was a serious moment of
the panel, I think Wardocia would be putting me number one.
Speaker 1 (20:38):
He would I think that guy Dave in upstate New
York is your biggest competition right now. That guy he's
he's a he's a dick. And Dayton is what he is.
He really is, rookie caller of the Year.
Speaker 5 (20:55):
No chance, remember he showed up.
Speaker 1 (21:01):
All right, you're mumbling I gotta go, thank you. Hang up.
Speaker 2 (21:03):
I'm pretty I'm pretty sure he's not meant, yeah, I
don't think that is almost never left the state of Ohio. Yeah,
he said, dick, shout up to the Mallard meet and greet.
Speaker 1 (21:14):
Well, there were, there were.
Speaker 3 (21:22):
Multiple dicks, and yes.
Speaker 1 (21:24):
We had a full house, but there were that was
not uh, you know, typically the only women that show
up with these things are dragged by the men. That's
normally how this works, right, They're normally the only women
that they're uh, they're just good sports.
Speaker 2 (21:43):
Laradas did for such a rude.
Speaker 1 (21:47):
We're gonna have them. We're gonna have a security guard
for Lareda. I want pepper spray on me as well.
Do not mess with me. I will bring my fish
gutter that I keep in my car.
Speaker 2 (21:56):
Okay, all right, love my taser.
Speaker 1 (22:02):
My taser is so cool. Yeah all right, well, so yeah,
that's let's sello to Keg drinking Steve. It only gets better, Eddie,
Hello Keg Drinking Steve.
Speaker 3 (22:12):
Welcome the Hour of the Legends.
Speaker 5 (22:15):
I'll tell Benny's full of it man. Listen, listen, ball
game Boston, Benny, what is the point of trashing crippled
tiger woods Man? You you are the ultimate I've figured
out you're the ultimate player. Raider because you know that
you're better than some of these guys that are making
(22:36):
nine million dollars a year of these morning jet shows.
But you got to get that that Benny and the
penny renewed, so so you can start climbing, climbing the
pole man?
Speaker 1 (22:47):
What what?
Speaker 5 (22:48):
What benfit is?
Speaker 1 (22:51):
What am I? What am I supposed to do here? Steve?
You want me to lie? Is how you you're asking
me to lie? Keg drinking, Steve, let the records are
Tweet this out, Coop or send this on next key drinking.
Steve wants me to lie. He wants me to ignore.
You're the liar. I'm not the liar. You're the liar.
Please you lie about the Edmonton apologize that you lie
(23:13):
about the Edmonton Oilers. Apologize right now, all of your
rage is transferred towards decent kind players like Tiger World. Yes,
a classy man who would never do anything untoward. Yes,
of course, listen, Roy McElroy on.
Speaker 5 (23:33):
He has a lifetime exemption once you wins twenty twenty tournaments. Anyway,
so Tiger, they're trying to get Tiger over the Hub
for the all time record, that's what they're.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
Okay, what are you gonna. You're gonna You're gonna give
him a twenty stroke lead before every tournament. That's about
the only way he's going to That's the only way
he's going to get the record. Do you understand he
is d O and he done?
Speaker 5 (23:58):
Then, Benny, all he's gotta do is in one tournament.
Speaker 1 (24:03):
All right, all right? So here's what they do. How
about this? They move instead of the Masters in Augusta,
how about they play it in Myrtle Beach. I was
just in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. That is the miniature
golf capital of the world, at least America. So why
don't they just have a major that'll move the Masters
to a miniature golf course in Myrtle Beach. How about that?
Speaker 2 (24:27):
Just give them the record?
Speaker 1 (24:28):
Then, well, why don't you just wipe? Why do you
wipe the brown stuff off your nose and clean your nose?
How about that? He is the greatest of Oh my god,
they want the.
Speaker 2 (24:44):
Win?
Speaker 1 (24:46):
Man, Ah right, get get out of here. What is
this the hour of the stupid? Thank you.
Speaker 2 (24:54):
Now?
Speaker 1 (24:54):
Our guy David, the fried Daddy, he writes, and he
had a lot to say about some of the things
we've talked about overnight. He says, as far as Monty Williams,
what are you talking about? It'll never end well. Looks
like it ends well for Monty. Signed for six, worked
for one. I would be happy as hell. They should
have just let him have one more year to see
if he could improve at all. He says. Also, this
(25:18):
NFL lawsuit, which is sounding like it's not going well
for the plaintiffs, and instead the NFL is looking like
they're doing pretty well in that lawsuit, says David says.
The judge is corrupt. You know, he got a thick envelope,
is what he said, getting messages that people are impressed
that we're doing hot Tiger Woods talk on the radio. Yeah,
(25:40):
well it was either that or the WNBA, and we
chose tiger Woods out of an abundance of caution. We
chose tiger Woods. Well, we'll have a double dose of Eddie.
We're gonna have punck the world with the Edmonton Euler hater,
the man somebody talking about hate in greatness, Connor McDavid,
who just oozes goodness and Eddie spits a loogie at him.
(26:02):
But let's get over to Eddie right now. Wow, Eddie
that was on the air. Are you a lama? Which
one spits?
Speaker 2 (26:15):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (26:16):
I think they both do. The lama's known more colloquial
as a spider. That was also the nickname that Mikey Adams,
Boston radio legend, gave to pow Gasol. He said he
looked like a lama, and he did kind of look
like a lama.
Speaker 2 (26:32):
Could you imagine having the nickname the spitner? Well, it
depends what a lot of work, all right?
Speaker 1 (26:45):
Then?
Speaker 2 (26:46):
Hey, NBA news, NBA News. The Dred Piston's firing their
head coach Monti Williams after one season. They do it
just over two months after the end of the regular season.
I guess they had what do they have to think
about it?
Speaker 1 (26:59):
They were awful.
Speaker 2 (27:00):
Fourteen and sixty eight was the record.
Speaker 1 (27:02):
They didn't want to be at rational Yeah, of course
not no.
Speaker 2 (27:05):
No rash decisions after that. But the one reason why
they maybe should have kept him around was it, well,
they still owned sixty five million dollars, so maybe you
haven't earned some of that money. But no, the are
going to get another coach. And still if you're money Williams.
Speaker 1 (27:20):
If you're money Williams, right, you never coach again. You've
won the lottery, he'll coach again. No, why would you?
Speaker 2 (27:27):
Because see it's what he does. He'll still get paid.
Speaker 1 (27:31):
He's fifty two, Eddie, He's around our age, Eddie. He
could live the life of luxury for the next twenty
five years if he lives long enough and not have
to worry about work, and he's got enough money. I mean,
enjoy it.
Speaker 2 (27:44):
I didn't do it, but I don't think you will.
I don't think you will.
Speaker 1 (27:48):
It's not like a radio job, which is difficult, which
I will never give up.
Speaker 2 (27:50):
Eddy.
Speaker 1 (27:51):
I love my radio jow Ye.
Speaker 3 (27:52):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Maller
Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific.
Speaker 2 (27:58):
Is it time for another Ben Mallow fun Fact?
Speaker 1 (28:01):
Well, if you want fun, I'm the fun fat guy.
Speaker 3 (28:03):
Yeah. Yes, they're fun fact.
Speaker 1 (28:06):
Yeah. Question whether or I have a fun fact? Absolutely so.
The Seattle Mariners. Things did not go well for the
Mariners in their game on Wednesday. In one player, in particular,
JP Crawford, was ejected. There were consecutive pitches that were
outside the strike zone, high up and outside the strike zone,
but they were called strikes. He got upset. He let
(28:27):
the umpire know his thoughts. He got ejected. But later on,
here's the fun part of the fact. A random Seattle
Mariner fan had a pizza delivered to Progressive Field where
they were playing the game, and the directions were to
be delivered to the visitors clubhouse. So JP Crawford could
enjoy a nice pizza pie in the clubhouse. So that
(28:49):
is the fun fact of the hour. JP Crawford that
that reminds me. It wasn't fried chicken like the Red
Sox chicken and beer they're famous the pitchers who weren't pitching.
They were eating and fried chicken and drinking beer and
playing video games and all that. It wasn't that. But yeah, no, pizza,
not that. And pizza's the only thing I really I
don't like leftovers. But the one food I will eat
(29:10):
leftovers is pizza. Oh we are hungry and we are
hungry for more. I go big on the pizza. Love
the pizza.
Speaker 2 (29:16):
I love pizza.
Speaker 1 (29:17):
Leftover. Yeah, solid pizza is a leftover is a way
to go. Just put that in the air fire for
a couple of misput in the off and you're good
to go. Hey, are you ready for a new job

(29:37):
world right now.
Speaker 2 (29:41):
To a man who does not appreciate greatness, Eddie Yards
alright man. The Stanley Cup Finals still going on the
Florida Panthers against the Evans and Oilers. When we last
left you in our last Pucked the World episode, Florida
had a two oh series lead, winning games one and
two on home ice. They then took Game three four
to three on the verge of a sweep, but behind
superstar Conor McDavid, The Oilers have won the last two games,
(30:04):
taking Game four eight to one. In Game five five three,
McDavid hosting back to back four point games, first player
in NHL Finals history to do that. Game six and
Edmonton on Friday, and if necessary, Game seven Monday in
Florida on mon Enny.
Speaker 1 (30:18):
When the Oilers win, Eddie on Monday into Tuesday, I
will do an entire hockey monologue dedicated to my ed
mcton Oilers.
Speaker 2 (30:26):
Yeah, well, that's not gonna happen. So I guess you
should have one about the Florida Panthers, but I guess
you're boring. Not boring, But anyway, if the Oilers win,
it would be their sixth Stanley Cup title, first since
nineteen ninety and the first for Canadian teams it ninety three.
If the Panthers win, it would be their first ever
title in franchise history. Who doesn't want that? We're there
are a couple of notes as far as trades from
(30:47):
Wednesday to are You killing?
Speaker 1 (30:48):
You did not mention Connor McDavid the first player is
Stanley Cup history? Back to back four point games?
Speaker 2 (30:53):
Am we mention that thanks for listening, dummy, I wasn't
listening well. First couple of We had a couple of
trades on Wednesday, the La King shipped out disappointing forward
Peer luth tu Baugh and the remaining seven years and
eight point five million per season on his contract of
the Washington Capitals in exchange for veteran goalie Darcy Kemper.
Speaker 1 (31:09):
That's a bad trade. That's a bad trade, Eddie. That's
a bad trade for Washington. No, it's a bad trade
for the King. He's in his mid thirties. He's washed
up and overpaid. Bad job.
Speaker 2 (31:20):
Lightinga was in his twenties and he sacks and he's
making eight job five million.
Speaker 1 (31:24):
You trade. Don't let a fall in goaltender fall on you, Eddie.
Speaker 2 (31:27):
You don't care about who're getting bad contract? The hockey guy, Eddie,
You're an idiots. There's a bad contract the Kings just
got rid of and he didn't have to retain any
of the salary.
Speaker 1 (31:36):
You're just eating ridiculous, ridiculous.
Speaker 2 (31:40):
Thank you Washington, Thank you job for hands.
Speaker 1 (31:44):
Bad job.
Speaker 2 (31:44):
New Jersey Devil's acquired goalie Jacob Markstrom from the Calgary
Flames in exchange for a first round pick in twenty
twenty five and player Kevin Ball. Flames are going to
retain four point one two five million on marks from salary.
Vancouver Canucks side defendsment Philip Ronic to an eight year
contract extension. He gets seven point two five million annually,
and forward Patrick Lainey has asked to be traded by
the Columbus Blue Jackets. The team says it will try
(32:05):
to accommodate his request. Alexander Steen is in line to
become the first Swedish NHL general manager after the Saint
Louis Blues announced their front office succession. Plan Steen was
named special assistant to general manager Doug Armstrong with the
intent of taking over for Armstrong in twenty twenty six.
Then we've also came with Armstrong getting a three year
extension as president of hockey Operations through twenty twenty nine.
(32:27):
Columbus Blue Jackets fired their head coach Pascal Vincent, for
less than one season on the job, got to the
Blue Jackets to a twenty seven forty three to twelve record.
They finished with the fewest points in the Eastern Conference.
Columbus has now gone through three head coaches in the
last fourteen months, Bratt Larsen, Mike Babcock and Pascal Vincent.
Speaker 1 (32:44):
And I'm actually going to be coaching them in a
couple months.
Speaker 2 (32:46):
At wow, that's what bottom My god, I'm.
Speaker 1 (32:49):
A hockey guy. After my analysis of the Edmonton Oily.
Speaker 2 (32:51):
Fowuh yeah, it's the worst coach in NHL history. Ben
Maller San Jose Shark's promoted assistant Ryan Warsofski to head coach.
Thirty six year old, now the youngest NHL in the NHL.
I was an assistant for two years in San Jose
gets promoted. Sharks had the worst record in the NHL
nineteen fifty four and nine and an NHL low forty
seven points. Carolina Hurricanes are sticky with Eric Toulski as
(33:13):
their general manager. They remove the interim tag after the
departure of Donwaldell to Columbus. Toulski holds a PhD in
chemistry from cal and conduct a two year post doctoral
study at the Naval.
Speaker 1 (33:26):
Research advertisyty how does that help the hockey?
Speaker 2 (33:28):
He holds twenty seven US patents according to his team
Bio worked in the tech industry for a dozen years
and managed research teams for nanotechnology areas. I don't know
how how does that help you run a hockey team?
I don't know, but apparently he's smart. The sale of
the Arizona Coyotes franchise to Utah Jazz owners has been finalized.
Team will officially be known as the Utah Hockey Club
(33:50):
for next season until they figure out the nickname. But
the color scheme has been released. It looks good rock black,
which represents both the darkness of night in the mountain
in the volcanic rock of the Utah Desert.
Speaker 1 (34:01):
That's some pr hacks salt whites.
Speaker 2 (34:04):
That illustrates both the snow of Utah's peaks and they're
famous salt flats.
Speaker 1 (34:08):
And what whatj dot does on the weekend? Yes, and when.
Speaker 2 (34:11):
Mountain Blue, which represents the team's winter sports history and
it's clear skies for two hundred and thirty days out
of the year.
Speaker 1 (34:17):
That So you see did you see where the Ducks
uniforms of the new Dunk Oh, my god, they look
like gritty.
Speaker 2 (34:25):
They're gritty like orange. You like that?
Speaker 5 (34:27):
Wow?
Speaker 1 (34:29):
Other option?
Speaker 2 (34:30):
My god?
Speaker 1 (34:30):
What are they trying to be the Philadelphia Flyers? What
are you doing.
Speaker 2 (34:34):
Trying to be like Clemson orange? Orange? Man?
Speaker 1 (34:38):
I mean that clearly somebody colorblind came up with those uniforms.
Speaker 2 (34:42):
My god, least favorite color orange.
Speaker 1 (34:44):
I don't know if it's my least favorite color, but
it ain't. They don't look good. I saw a photo
somebody sent me a photo like that. Those are pretty ugly.
Speaker 2 (34:52):
Well, it does match their franchise, which is an ugly
They gotta.
Speaker 1 (34:56):
Go back to when I covered the Ducks Eddy they
had the purple that back.
Speaker 2 (34:59):
In the All Day they called it egg plants, the
egg plan.
Speaker 1 (35:02):
That's what they got to go.
Speaker 2 (35:03):
Back then they need to disband that franchise and just
you know, send.
Speaker 1 (35:06):
Them any Eddie wants one less hockey team. That's the world. Oh, Mike,
did you not give the NHL propaganda Eddie.
Speaker 2 (35:17):
That whole thing propaganda?
Speaker 3 (35:18):
No?
Speaker 1 (35:19):
No, no, no. The NBA ratings went down, but according
to the NHL, I'm sure they didn't spend these numbers
at all. They claim that across North America, the twenty
twenty four Stanley Cup Final Game five saw an increase
of sixty one percent from last year's Game five, and.
Speaker 2 (35:37):
Across the polist game on Earth and.
Speaker 1 (35:39):
Across North America, the Stanley Cup Final is averaging seven
point two million viewers. That is up sixty four percent
from last year's Stanley Cup Final across North America. Of
course they are spinning a lot of numbers.
Speaker 2 (35:53):
It's also on you know, ABC, so I'm sure that
didn't hurt.
Speaker 1 (35:56):
Well, no, but it's not. They don't in Canada though,
it's it's not on AB.
Speaker 2 (36:00):
See, they don't understand that we're talking about the United States.
You're not talking about Canadian teen ratings.
Speaker 1 (36:04):
No we are. They're including the Canadian television ratings, is
what they're doing. They're not just doing the ABC ratings.
They're including the CBC and whatever channels in Canada broadcast
the Stanley Cup Final. So they're spinning the numbers, is
what they're doing. But that's fine anyway, all right, we're
spinning something else here. It is the Ben Maler Show.
