another hour of the ben Mallor show. We are in
the air everywhere in Alliance, as we say, five nights
a week is all we ask.
Speaker 1 (01:35):
That's it.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
And a couple of podcasts on the weekend coast coast,

(02:20):
Buying SHOWTB. In our headline this hour, I've got Carolina
on my mind. Why let me explain so our lead
this hour from the gutter of the NFL. Now, the
gutter of the NFL is the tukis is in Charlotte
(02:41):
right now.
Speaker 1 (02:42):
Back to back terrible seasons?
Speaker 3 (02:44):
What have had? Back to back?
Speaker 1 (02:46):
Number one overall.
Speaker 2 (02:48):
Pick didn't quite work out that way. He made a
trade with the Chicago Bears. Anyway, The team known as
the Panthers that does not have much of a bite.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
They're at least good at this.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
They're good at providing us with content, and that's important.
It's the little things alive and that they are helping
us out here. So I don't know if you heard
the latest faux pas. You might have missed it. Some
recently unearthed video from behind the scenes how they make
the hot dogs in Charlotte, and it has gone viral.
(03:26):
In the video, I'll describe for Inca Terror and our
other blind listeners. In the video, it shows someone named
Nicole Tepper. We're told that is the wife of the
Carolina Panthers owner David Tepper, meddling with the draft, advising
(03:47):
the team or thoughts on who they should draft.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
Inside the he's called the war room. So this is
what I want to talk to you about.
Speaker 2 (03:55):
The question is how do you dissect this viral clip
of the Panther owner David Tepper's wife similarly assisting in
a senior advisory role on who Carolina should have drafted.
So I've got the Bronx Zoo motel and powder room,
(04:20):
and we will combine all of these things together and
we are.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
Going to have a cup of Joe.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
Now, I don't drink coffee, but I am around people
that love the coffee. So to kick off here, I
want you to know the Malor investigative arm was activated
even here on the fourth of July, and I had
a minutes long Mallor investigation. In the video clip, you
could see Nicole Tepper whispering. You could hear what she
(04:50):
was saying in the clip as she's giving advice to
Dave Canalis. We're told that is the head coach of
the team, although he hasn't coached the game yet. The
whole thing was the seaword, not that seaword cringeworthy.
Speaker 3 (05:03):
Was the sea word.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
All ten, maybe even eleven Panther fans were spitting mad, right,
And I get it, Like I totally get it. It's
not ideal to have the spouse of the boss meddling
and caught on candid camera. It's not what you're looking for.
You're not exactly living the dream here.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
Now. That's say, if.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
You spent billions with a capital B billions on a
professional sports team, don't you think you're gonna.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
Stick your nose into every nook and cranny.
Speaker 2 (05:40):
I would Why wouldn't you now this is different though
you said, well, it's not David Tepper. He's done this,
but this is his why So this is like another
layer to the cake. This is some new blood getting involved.
All of these sports teams are they just these teams
are toys for aristocrats.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
That's what they are.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
And this particular chapter, you know what it reminds me of.
It reminds me of the Bronx Zoo back in the
salad days of George Steinbrenner was an owner long ago,
the drill sergeant George Steinbrenner, the Boss, they called him
the Boss.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
As he was known, and they had a player named
Oscar Gamble.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
I don't know who that is, old baseball player playing
for the Yankees at the time, and it was the
Bronx Zoo and he gave a quote to describe what
it's like playing for the Yankees, and that quote applies.
Speaker 1 (06:35):
To the Carolina Panthers right now.
Speaker 2 (06:37):
The quote from Oscar Gamble was they don't think it
be like it is, but it do.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
That was his quote.
Speaker 2 (06:44):
Carolina is right now at disfunction junction?
Speaker 1 (06:49):
What is your function? Real talk? I mean, I'll give
you a rit not the caller. He's gone real talk.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
The bums that they picked the last couple of years
couldn't be any worse.
Speaker 1 (07:03):
I mean, I don't know she knows anything about football.
I have no idea. I've never heard of her. I
don't know anything about her.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
But they've had people seemingly who knew what they were doing,
who picked bad players.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
So how bad could it be?
Speaker 3 (07:17):
All right?
Speaker 2 (07:17):
Now, furthermore, we head up I ninety five, We head
now to Jersey and the question here is what message
What message did the Giants general manager Joe Shane and
his candid hard knocks comments on not wanting to pay
Daniel Jones forty million dollars to hand the ball off
(07:40):
to a twenty seven million dollar running back to Kwan Barkley.
What message did the Giants GM say? All right, So
here and this was another clip that bounced around. We're
in that early July period. We still have a couple
of weeks ago before training camp. So this is the
content that we have to break down football wise. So
(08:01):
he was picked up by camera and microphone, just like
the Carolina Panthers wife of the owner was picked up.
Speaker 1 (08:09):
And it's rather obvious here that on this one the.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
Giants general manager is putting Danny Dimes in the crosshairs,
and anyone that is honest and not an a hole
and kind of gets it, knows that Daniel Jones the
last couple of years has been a dog with fleas.
(08:33):
He needed a flea bath e bezzling money and now
he's got reservations at the Last Chance Motel. No room
service at the Last Chance Motel. The vending machine is broken,
there's water leaking in the bathroom. The roaches are parachuting
down from the ceiling.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
We know what that's like now.
Speaker 2 (08:55):
In a separate clip, Joe Shane the GM there in
New York, the Giants. He also indicated that he did
not think that Sequon Barkley would find a big payday. Now,
some Philadelphia Eagle fans are implying that this is a
sign the Giants GM doesn't know what he's doing. But
I would argue this point, here's my position on this.
(09:18):
So he said it, questioning how much money Saquon Barkley
was worth on the open market, and all that whether
or not he would get a big pay day, which
either makes the Philadelphia Eagles look like donkeys, that they're
the village idiot, or it will end up making the
Giants GM look bad. It really is outcome determined, right,
(09:39):
that is to be determined based on how Saquon Barkley
does in Philadelphia. He's built like Adonnis, but will he
play like that? Now, last thing here we stay in
the East. We go back down to Baltimore where Sports
with Coleman rules the roost.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
Radio buddies. Now he's a hip podcaster.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
So Fox Sports commentator Mark Schlayreth stink. Mark Schlayrith doubled
down on recent comments he had made about Lamar Jackson.
And if you miss those comments, I'll give you the
thumbnail recap. So his comment, Mark Slayrith, this comment was
that Lamar Jackson is under tremendous pressure out with the
(10:26):
pressure in Baltimore to prove that he doesn't suck in
the playoffs, that he can actually win games and be
the top quarterback in playoff game. So that was the
point that Mark Schlayrith made that he doubled down on
Lamar Jackson's under tremendous pressure. He's got to win the playoffs.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
Do you believe it or not?
Speaker 2 (10:48):
So, while in a perfect reality that would be true,
I don't believe it. I don't stink is living in
an alternative reality that is not the world I live in,
not now. Maybe it's the world you live in. I
live in the twilight zone. It's a very delicate issue.
I know from past commentary about Lamar Jackson that the
(11:10):
people that support him, the Lamar Jackson Marching and Chowder Society,
do not allow any any criticism of Lamar. And for
the regular season, with all of the accolades, all the
trophies that Lamar has picked up, he still has this
soft underbelly. In big games, he goes to a very deep,
(11:32):
dark place and there's no way to spin it.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
Jackson.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
He goes into the powder room, so he's inside the
powder room, he takes off his Iron Man suit and
he just becomes generic Tony Stark.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
That's it.
Speaker 2 (11:47):
At a cocktail party, he defecates all over himself. In
big games, six playoff games, that's a fair sample. Some
players don't even get six playoff games, and they're good quarterbacks.
Lamar Jackson six playoff games teams two and four. Okay,
that's a team record.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
How's Lamar doing?
Speaker 2 (12:08):
Six touchdown passes, six interceptions, six fumbles.
Speaker 1 (12:12):
That's six six six. The side of the devil.
Speaker 3 (12:18):
Do do Do Do Do Doo.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
That's called patternicity. By the way, what I did right
there is patternicity. But yeah, he's got six touchdowns, six
interceptions and six fumbles. Now, despite all of that, Lamar
Jackson got paid, all right, he got paid. He's got
a human firewall protecting him from criticism.
Speaker 1 (12:40):
And you know what it is.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
It's the yeah but band, Yeah but yeah but yeah
but yeah but yeah but yeah but yeah but the
yeah but band. Yeah but two time MVP, Yeah but
two time all Pro. Yeah but this guy got hurt.
Yeah but that guy got hurt.
Speaker 1 (12:51):
Yeah but yeah but yeah, yeah but yeah but yeah.
It's a yeah but band, Yeah but band passing the buck.
That's what it is.
Speaker 2 (12:59):
Play the blame game, and you gotta have a fall guy.
You gotta have a fall guys. What you gotta have
It is the Ben Mallor Show. If you would like
to be my fall guy, you can call it right now. Scream, shout, yell,
all of that.
Speaker 1 (13:18):
We'll take your phone calls.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
At eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox. Speakeasy rules
have been relaxed because it is the fourth of July,
which in Canada is just another day, but here it
is our big day here in the States to celebrate,
celebrate good times. I didn't want to mention this before
I forget for the third straight hour. So there is
an NFL player who is a former NFL player is
(13:42):
being used as a political pond. That would be Marshawn Lynch.
Beast Mode is now becoming political mode. You might have
seen the story, maybe not, And it'll actually broadcast where
this show is heard on iHeart. But Marshawn Lynch has
put his name as a co host to a podcast,
(14:03):
but not your normal jock podcast. You see, Marshawn Lynch
his new podcast we called Politiken and it'll feature his agent,
Doug Hendrickson.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
That's not that big a deal.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
It's gonna launch in eleven days, and there was a
news release sent out. But the reason it's interesting is
because the podcast will feature the governor of California, the
guy that's literally burning California up with his decisions. There,
Gavin Newsom, the political leader who's allowing people to steal
(14:39):
whatever they want and commit crimes and not be punished.
That guy's gonna host a podcast with Marshawn Lynch Man
and we know why he's doing it right.
Speaker 1 (14:51):
Gavin Newsom has eyes on the White House.
Speaker 2 (14:53):
Who knows, in the next couple of weeks he might
end up running and replacing the president. This is not
political one man. I'm just saying, but it's it's clear
that Marshawn Lynch is being dragged into this. And I
don't know whether Marshaw Lynch is political or not. He
probably isn't, but maybe he is. But either way, I mean,
you put your name out there. That is a that
is a rocky road when you go down that road,
that is a rocky, rocky road. But he's being used
(15:17):
as a pawn by Gavin Newsom to make him seem cooler,
to make the governor of California, who people don't like.
Most people don't like, even the people that support him
a support and politic don't like him.
Speaker 1 (15:30):
And so now Marshawn Lynch is like, okay, I'm there.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
So from my perspective, I'm okay with it because I'm
in the content business and I'm I guarantee you Marshawn
Lynch is going to say some stupid things and the
governor is going to do stupid things, and they're all
We'll get content out of it right now. Gavin Newsom
claimed that the podcast would have no politics. Yeah, but
(15:54):
everything is political these days, right everything, Everything is political anyway,
it is the best n Malar Show. Will take a
bunch of calls as we celebrate the fourth of July.
Also will have pucked the world with Eddie.
Speaker 1 (16:07):
We'll get to that and we will do it next.

Speaker 1 (17:24):
I get the theme.
Speaker 3 (17:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (17:26):
It took me all night, but yeah, that's fine.
Speaker 2 (17:30):
Let's go to the phones. Here's a blast in the past.
Let's say hello to Matt, who's in the Valley of
the Sun.
Speaker 3 (17:36):
Now.
Speaker 2 (17:36):
For a while Matt was a regular caller, but not recently.
Hello Matt in Phoenix. What's going on?
Speaker 3 (17:42):
Matt?
Speaker 4 (17:42):
You doing? Ben? Huge fan in the air everywhere here
in Phoenix.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
Welcome in, Matt family. You'll be happy to know that
my relatives. I have cousins who live in Phoenix and
they actually I just had dinner with them. I'm to
talking about that on my podcast this weekend. They leave Phoenix,
Matt in July and August because it's too hot for them.
Speaker 6 (18:05):
Even though they it's a little warm here.
Speaker 4 (18:08):
It's a little warm. You get used to it though.
Speaker 6 (18:10):
It's a dry well.
Speaker 1 (18:11):
They've lived there for a long time.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
I don't think they've ever gotten used to it because
they leave every every July and August.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
It's pretty fair.
Speaker 4 (18:17):
I wanted to get your take on the Arizona Cardinals
Kyler Murray. My take is I never liked him from
the first pick, and I think he's too short, can't
see over the line. But I'm hoping that Marvin Harrison
will come through with a huge Pitgerald fan for many,
many years, and you think he can replace fits.
Speaker 1 (18:40):
Yeah, he is great.
Speaker 2 (18:41):
He's got all the ingredients, but you still have to
do it. But the whole you know, are you are
you pulling my chane here? I have had I have
had battles.
Speaker 1 (18:51):
With Cardinal fans over Kyler Murray over the years here
they have. They've been very upset. Your your local newspaper there,
which I guess is still around, Matt.
Speaker 4 (18:59):
The Republic, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (19:00):
The Republic has written uh angry stories. When I pointed
out what a what a goofball? He's a gadget player
Kyler Murray and he's not. He can't trust him in
big spots. I'm not a Kyler Murray guy and all that.
Speaker 1 (19:14):
And the Cardinals. Cardinals just kind of it's just not
very good. They're just kind of they're a middling team
at this particular point.
Speaker 2 (19:22):
Uh, you know that division. Seattle is also a middling team.
The Rams are a little better than that than the
Niners are really good. So that's that's where we are. Yeah,
but having have a gray fourth, Matt, I gotta go,
I gotta go think, Matt. Let's let's say hello to
the It says the Myth in Atlanta, and I'm told
he's very upset with my hot takes.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
He's annoyed, he's he's very upset. Hello is your name? Myth? M? Hello?
Speaker 4 (19:53):
What?
Speaker 6 (19:56):
That's what it is?
Speaker 1 (19:58):
I can't hear you. What do you you?
Speaker 2 (20:00):
You were mumbling what mephistophiles mesistophiles?
Speaker 1 (20:06):
Yeah, congratulations, all right, that's great.
Speaker 6 (20:10):
So man, I used to listen to you like three
years ago, and I was hoping for Bernie Frado tonight,
but then I remembered, it's not Friday, or it's not
what you can What do you call it? Because I'm pissed.
Look what do you what do you look? Do you
(20:32):
think about the Dallas Mavericks, Like, think about it? Who
did they do?
Speaker 1 (20:39):
Why do I have to think about the Dallas Mavericks?
Speaker 6 (20:41):
What do you man? They just got the best three
point drainer that is going to stand on the perimeter
and drain threes and that why why are you hating
on that?
Speaker 2 (20:56):
I'm not hate he's washed up. I helped make some
three point shots, but he's he's a shell. He's a
shell of what he had been. Listen you you your delusion.
Speaker 6 (21:05):
That's fine seeing him to do with Kyrie and Luca
is to stand on the PERI and Draane three.
Speaker 2 (21:13):
So yeah, So I don't think you understand the falling
star in sports. I think you think these guys just
continue forever and they never get old, and they never
have injuries, and they never fall apart.
Speaker 1 (21:25):
I sense you're not. I feel like your naive.
Speaker 2 (21:27):
I feel like you haven't watched him play the last
couple of years, or.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
You would you wouldn't sound so stupid to make these statements.
Speaker 6 (21:35):
I am not stupid.
Speaker 2 (21:37):
I'm not saying you what you sound stupid though you'd
admit that, right. I mean Klay Thompson last year, back
when Klay Thompson was at his peak of his superpowers.
Speaker 1 (21:46):
He was not just a one trick spot up shooter,
but he was not. He was a guy. Let me explain.
Let me explain, because I clearly you know that.
Speaker 2 (21:54):
So Klay Thompson would would headfake and blow past defenders
and and dunk you know what he dunks he had
last year for the Warriors all season two two all
season Do you he has no explosion?
Speaker 6 (22:08):
Watch if you watch some Mavericks this year, you would
know all we need is somebody to stand on.
Speaker 3 (22:15):
You know this.
Speaker 2 (22:16):
You know this was a fluke crun and they're not
going to do it again. So that's why I thank
you for the call, and thank you for not cursing.
I thought you were going to curse. Let's say, hello,
now it's a holiday. It's officially a holiday because we
have Dick and Dayton.
Speaker 1 (22:30):
Hello.
Speaker 3 (22:31):

despite all of these different songs that are out there,
the basic building blocks of music, all of these songs,
all of them, right, all of them. There are twenty
(25:42):
two million songs a year, and there are only twelve
notes that are available. That's it, twelve notes. There's even
less doing gas baggery, even less. Let's get over again,
a double dose Eddie. But right now, let's get you
caught up on everything going on in the overnight, and
we'll have a fun fact as well, fun fact.
Speaker 1 (26:00):
But here he is games of note Garcia.
Speaker 3 (26:04):
Yeah, all right, thank you man.
Speaker 5 (26:06):
We start with the NBA news where the LA Lakers
and start Lebron James agree on a two year, one
hundred and four million dollars max deal. The second year
as a player option, includes a no trade clause. Meanwhile,
Lebron James Junior, better known as Brownie, he gets a
four year deal with the Lakers on the same day,
worth seven point nine million. This ufter being drafted in
the second round. Last month. In baseball, you had the
Phillies over the Cups five to three. Philadelphia now major
(26:26):
league best fifty seven and twenty nine.
Speaker 3 (26:28):
On the year.
Speaker 5 (26:29):
Orioles down the Mariners four to one. Ryan o'hearne homer
drove in three of the four runs for Baltimore, who's
now won six of seven and has a two game
lead on the Yankees for first in the AL East.
Yankees lose to the Reds three to two. Astros beat
the Blue Jays nine to two. Houston now nineteen and
nine since June, first best record in the American League
over that span, and they're just two games back of
Seattle for first in the AL West. Now, Guardians lose
(26:50):
to the White Sox eight to two, Dodgers Faull of
the Diamondbacks twelve to four. Couple of homers for Christian
Walker for Arizona. Brewers shut off the Rockies three to nothing.
Milwaukee started Colin Ray seven shutout innings in the win.
Speaker 3 (27:02):
Twins fall to the Tigers nine to two.
Speaker 5 (27:04):
Minnesota did it a home run for the twenty first
straight game, but Detroit hit four of them, including grand
slam from Carston. Kelly Braves over the Giants three to one.
Atlanta starter Chris sil gets his eleventh one of the year.
He's tied with Kansas City Seth Lugo for the Major
League lead. Royals beat the Rays four to two, while
the Red Sox down the Marlin seven too. So Kenzondy's
still holding a half game lead on Boston for the
final wildcard spot. In the American League, Padres beat the
(27:26):
Rangers six to four, while the Cardinals lose to the
Pirates Pittsburgh with the five to four walk off win
in ten innings. So we got the All Star Game
coming up. The starters have been announced in both the
NL and the AL. In the National League, you've got
William Contrerez of the Brewers, your catcher, Bryce Harper of
the Phillies, Alex Baum and Trey Turner also with the Phillies.
Your first third and short stops. Second baseman is Katel
(27:49):
Marte of the Diamondbacks. You're outfielders Christian Yellwich are the Brewers,
Jerkson Profar of the Patres, and Fernando de East Junior
of the Padres. And you're designated hitter at show Hey
Tani American League All Stars at Lee Schman as your
catcher for the oriol Vladimir Greer Junior, the Blue Jays

Jose Ramirez, the Guardians at third. You've got your outfield

(28:11):
Soto the Yankees. Stephen Kwan is there as well. Actually,
Gunner Henderson is the short stop. Stephen Kuan's it out
fold there, and Jordan Alvarez of the Astros is your
designated hitter. Those are your All Star starters a right
for Major League Baseball's All Star Game.
Speaker 2 (28:24):
The top vote getter was Aaron Judge from what I read,
and I think it makes sense. Bryce Harper was the
top guy in the National League. Well, movie bets got hurt?
What happened to al Tania? I thought Otani would get
all the votes. I don't know I would have bet
on that.
Speaker 3 (28:40):
Oh, I see what you did.

selection San Jose Sharks taking Mecklin Celebrini with the number
one overall pick, the first Hobe Baker Award winner the
Hockey Heisman as the top college player, and he also
goes number one overall.
Speaker 3 (31:15):
That had never happened before.
Speaker 5 (31:16):

Boston University for a sophomore season or turn pro. Go
pro school was boring, Gore in your living. Every draft
has a controversial player, Thank you. Every draft as a
controversial player, and there was in this draft as well.
His name is Trevor Connelly. Supposed to be a top
ten pick. He fell in nineteen taken by the Vegas
(31:36):
Golden Knights. He had posted some pictures on social media
or a picture that had a swastika on it. Also
alleged to have used a racial slur that was never proven,
but some office issues there, but he dropped, but he
still was taken in the.
Speaker 3 (31:51):
First round of the top twenty.
Speaker 5 (31:52):
There nothing makes me feel old like seeing players I
watched have their kids get drafted. Saku Koivu, Miroslabsha, Tam
Michael Samuelson, Derek plant Eurite Fisher all NHL players whose
kids got drafted. The most notable though, tej Iginla, the
son of Hall of Famer Jerome Aginla. Team was taken
by Utah with their that's right, yeah, he actually got
(32:15):
drafted before his dad did so. Bragging rights to him.
Draft usually dominated by Canadians and Americans, but you've also
got Russians, Swedes, Finns, and some guys from the Czech Republic.
But ever every once in a few other countries kind
of emerged, Switzerland, Germany, Slovakia.
Speaker 3 (32:28):
But this year was Norway. The first two Norwegian.
Speaker 5 (32:32):
Players ever selected in the first round we had in
this draft, So we'll see if Norway is an emerging
hockey country.
Speaker 1 (32:37):
There, Dorway or Norway.
Speaker 3 (32:40):
That's very good, yes, thank you.
Speaker 5 (32:42):
On Monday, we had the start of free agency and
the Nashville Predators were the big winners. They land former
Lightning captain at two times Stanley Cup winner Steven Stamcos.
They get former Golden Knights playoff MVP Jonathan Marchiso, as
well as Covenant defenseman Brady Say.
Speaker 3 (32:55):
A lot of teams would have been happy with one
of those guys. They got three of them.
Speaker 5 (32:58):
The NHL was gonna allow re former Blackhawks executives to
now seek employment in the league.
Speaker 3 (33:03):
They had been banned in twenty.
Speaker 5 (33:05):
Twenty one after an investigation of how they handled a
sexual assault involving a player and a coach. Back in
twenty ten, stan bowman Al mc isaac and Joela Quinnville
can now seek employment.
Speaker 2 (33:16):
Now Quinnville I interviewed back in the day and he's
coached a bunch of teams around the Nahoy's been.
Speaker 5 (33:20):
Roun Yeah, had won Stanley Cupps. All those guys that
are part of Stanley Cup winners in Chicago. Bowman already
being mentioned for the vacant GM john and Edmonton where
Ken Hollands suddenly left, and there is one head coaching
vacancy with the Columbus Blue Jackets to see if they're
interested in Quinnville. Seattle, Kracken made history. They hired the
first female assistant coach, Jessica Campbell, who had been an
assistant on Dan Biles with staff in the minor leagues,
(33:43):
joins him in Seattle as he gets promoted to be
head coach.
Speaker 3 (33:46):
So first female.
Speaker 5 (33:47):
Assistant coach, Nathan McKinnon of the Avalanche is your MVP.
You had Winnipeg Jets net miner Connor Hellibuck winning the
Vesnan Trophy as the top goaligue, Quinn Hughes the Vancouver
Conductor Norris Trophy, top defenseman Connor Madard of the Blackhawks
the Calder Trophy as Rookie of the Year. Finally, the
Florida Panthers had their Stanley Cup victory parade on Sunday.
It was the usual mix of drunkenness and naughty language.
(34:08):
Uh you had Panther players shouting F bombs, but one
in particular, though, yelled an F bomb at a professional golfer.
Apparently earlier this season, Brooks Kopka, who is a golf
star and a Panther superfan, was videotaped at a game
shouting at Panthers defenseman Aaron ed Pladd, saying that he
sucked and was a pylon.
Speaker 3 (34:30):
They Kepka had a few drinks as well, it appeared
so f Plaid.
Speaker 5 (34:34):
Took the stage at the victory valley, held an orange
cone over his head and screamed to the microphone, F
you brooks Kopka.
Speaker 3 (34:44):
He didn't just say, he said the other thing.
Speaker 1 (34:46):
Well, of course, yeah, I.
Speaker 3 (34:47):
Lit a revenge on Brooks the world, Paddy.
Speaker 1 (34:50):
I actually have two hockey stories.
Speaker 2 (34:52):
All right, All right, now, you didn't mention this because
you hate the Ducks.
Speaker 1 (34:56):
Do you see who they drafted? Did you see they
drafted a Seneke? Is that his name?
Speaker 4 (35:02):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (35:03):
I did see that. His reaction had a very good
You know his.
Speaker 2 (35:06):
Mom is no, his mom, I read this on the internet,
must be true a longtime hd TV host. Yes, his
mom is Candice Olsen, who hosted a show called Divine Design.
Speaker 1 (35:21):
I don't think I.
Speaker 2 (35:22):
Ever saw that show, but she also she hosted a
couple of different shows for HGTV.
Speaker 1 (35:28):
And her kid was drafted by the Ducks with a
third pick in the draft.
Speaker 5 (35:32):
He had a very stunned reaction at being taken number three.
He was completely stupefied.
Speaker 3 (35:36):
It was. It was pretty fun.
Speaker 1 (35:38):
Edie out of the main event.
Speaker 2 (35:39):
All the Internet believes the new nickname for the Utah Hockey.
Speaker 3 (35:44):
Clu that's been leaked.
Speaker 1 (35:45):
Oh yes, Bill.
Speaker 5 (35:48):
Bill Armstrong's the general manager of the team.
Speaker 2 (35:51):
The GM of the team was discussing the two new
selections for the team, the general manager and in the
statement when he talked about the two players that they picked,
and he said, that's when we knew he would be
He's sorry about the number five pick. He would be
a Utah Here we.
Speaker 1 (36:17):
Go, Yeady, here we go. Yes, that Bill Armshaw.
Speaker 2 (36:23):
People think he leaked the nickname that he knows they're
going to be called the Yetti and he screwed up
and he's gonna.
Speaker 3 (36:29):
Be ian Is like, why does Lorena care about this?
Speaker 1 (36:33):
He's going to get in.
Speaker 5 (36:35):
We heard a prediction of what the name would be,
and Lorena said Yeti before anyone else. She was ahead
of everyone, Lorain. If it's the YETI, I will buy
her a yetti jersey.
Speaker 3 (36:45):
That's right, it's we're a step closer. She should have
angled for like a YETI cooler or something that would
have been a wow.
Speaker 1 (36:52):
I don't camp, and I'm really bad with coolers. I
don't empty him out so they get all moldy and
gross on the inside.
Speaker 3 (36:56):
Great.

fact or fiction.

Buying SHOWTB. In our headline this hour, I've got Carolina
on my mind. Why let me explain so our lead
this hour from the gutter of the NFL. Now, the
gutter of the NFL is the tukis is in Charlotte
(02:41):
right now.
Speaker 1 (02:42):
Back to back terrible seasons?
Speaker 3 (02:44):
What have had? Back to back?
Speaker 1 (02:46):
Number one overall.
Speaker 2 (02:48):
Pick didn't quite work out that way. He made a
trade with the Chicago Bears. Anyway, The team known as
the Panthers that does not have much of a bite.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
They're at least good at this.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
They're good at providing us with content, and that's important.
It's the little things alive and that they are helping
us out here. So I don't know if you heard
the latest faux pas. You might have missed it. Some
recently unearthed video from behind the scenes how they make
the hot dogs in Charlotte, and it has gone viral.
(03:26):
In the video, I'll describe for Inca Terror and our
other blind listeners. In the video, it shows someone named
Nicole Tepper. We're told that is the wife of the
Carolina Panthers owner David Tepper, meddling with the draft, advising
(03:47):
the team or thoughts on who they should draft.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
Inside the he's called the war room. So this is
what I want to talk to you about.
Speaker 2 (03:55):
The question is how do you dissect this viral clip
of the Panther owner David Tepper's wife similarly assisting in
a senior advisory role on who Carolina should have drafted.
So I've got the Bronx Zoo motel and powder room,
(04:20):
and we will combine all of these things together and
we are.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
Going to have a cup of Joe.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
Now, I don't drink coffee, but I am around people
that love the coffee. So to kick off here, I
want you to know the Malor investigative arm was activated
even here on the fourth of July, and I had
a minutes long Mallor investigation. In the video clip, you
could see Nicole Tepper whispering. You could hear what she
(04:50):
was saying in the clip as she's giving advice to
Dave Canalis. We're told that is the head coach of
the team, although he hasn't coached the game yet. The
whole thing was the seaword, not that seaword cringeworthy.
Speaker 3 (05:03):
Was the sea word.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
All ten, maybe even eleven Panther fans were spitting mad, right,
And I get it, Like I totally get it. It's
not ideal to have the spouse of the boss meddling
and caught on candid camera. It's not what you're looking for.
You're not exactly living the dream here.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
Now. That's say, if.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
You spent billions with a capital B billions on a
professional sports team, don't you think you're gonna.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
Stick your nose into every nook and cranny.
Speaker 2 (05:40):
I would Why wouldn't you now this is different though
you said, well, it's not David Tepper. He's done this,
but this is his why So this is like another
layer to the cake. This is some new blood getting involved.
All of these sports teams are they just these teams
are toys for aristocrats.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
That's what they are.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
And this particular chapter, you know what it reminds me of.
It reminds me of the Bronx Zoo back in the
salad days of George Steinbrenner was an owner long ago,
the drill sergeant George Steinbrenner, the Boss, they called him
the Boss.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
As he was known, and they had a player named
Oscar Gamble.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
I don't know who that is, old baseball player playing
for the Yankees at the time, and it was the
Bronx Zoo and he gave a quote to describe what
it's like playing for the Yankees, and that quote applies.
Speaker 1 (06:35):
To the Carolina Panthers right now.
Speaker 2 (06:37):
The quote from Oscar Gamble was they don't think it
be like it is, but it do.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
That was his quote.
Speaker 2 (06:44):
Carolina is right now at disfunction junction?
Speaker 1 (06:49):
What is your function? Real talk? I mean, I'll give
you a rit not the caller. He's gone real talk.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
The bums that they picked the last couple of years
couldn't be any worse.
Speaker 1 (07:03):
I mean, I don't know she knows anything about football.
I have no idea. I've never heard of her. I
don't know anything about her.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
But they've had people seemingly who knew what they were doing,
who picked bad players.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
So how bad could it be?
Speaker 3 (07:17):
All right?
Speaker 2 (07:17):
Now, furthermore, we head up I ninety five, We head
now to Jersey and the question here is what message
What message did the Giants general manager Joe Shane and
his candid hard knocks comments on not wanting to pay
Daniel Jones forty million dollars to hand the ball off
(07:40):
to a twenty seven million dollar running back to Kwan Barkley.
What message did the Giants GM say? All right, So
here and this was another clip that bounced around. We're
in that early July period. We still have a couple
of weeks ago before training camp. So this is the
content that we have to break down football wise. So
(08:01):
he was picked up by camera and microphone, just like
the Carolina Panthers wife of the owner was picked up.
Speaker 1 (08:09):
And it's rather obvious here that on this one the.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
Giants general manager is putting Danny Dimes in the crosshairs,
and anyone that is honest and not an a hole
and kind of gets it, knows that Daniel Jones the
last couple of years has been a dog with fleas.
(08:33):
He needed a flea bath e bezzling money and now
he's got reservations at the Last Chance Motel. No room
service at the Last Chance Motel. The vending machine is broken,
there's water leaking in the bathroom. The roaches are parachuting
down from the ceiling.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
We know what that's like now.
Speaker 2 (08:55):
In a separate clip, Joe Shane the GM there in
New York, the Giants. He also indicated that he did
not think that Sequon Barkley would find a big payday. Now,
some Philadelphia Eagle fans are implying that this is a
sign the Giants GM doesn't know what he's doing. But
I would argue this point, here's my position on this.
(09:18):
So he said it, questioning how much money Saquon Barkley
was worth on the open market, and all that whether
or not he would get a big pay day, which
either makes the Philadelphia Eagles look like donkeys, that they're
the village idiot, or it will end up making the
Giants GM look bad. It really is outcome determined, right,
(09:39):
that is to be determined based on how Saquon Barkley
does in Philadelphia. He's built like Adonnis, but will he
play like that? Now, last thing here we stay in
the East. We go back down to Baltimore where Sports
with Coleman rules the roost.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
Radio buddies. Now he's a hip podcaster.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
So Fox Sports commentator Mark Schlayreth stink. Mark Schlayrith doubled
down on recent comments he had made about Lamar Jackson.
And if you miss those comments, I'll give you the
thumbnail recap. So his comment, Mark Slayrith, this comment was
that Lamar Jackson is under tremendous pressure out with the
(10:26):
pressure in Baltimore to prove that he doesn't suck in
the playoffs, that he can actually win games and be
the top quarterback in playoff game. So that was the
point that Mark Schlayrith made that he doubled down on
Lamar Jackson's under tremendous pressure. He's got to win the playoffs.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
Do you believe it or not?
Speaker 2 (10:48):
So, while in a perfect reality that would be true,
I don't believe it. I don't stink is living in
an alternative reality that is not the world I live in,
not now. Maybe it's the world you live in. I
live in the twilight zone. It's a very delicate issue.
I know from past commentary about Lamar Jackson that the
(11:10):
people that support him, the Lamar Jackson Marching and Chowder Society,
do not allow any any criticism of Lamar. And for
the regular season, with all of the accolades, all the
trophies that Lamar has picked up, he still has this
soft underbelly. In big games, he goes to a very deep,
(11:32):
dark place and there's no way to spin it.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
Jackson.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
He goes into the powder room, so he's inside the
powder room, he takes off his Iron Man suit and
he just becomes generic Tony Stark.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
That's it.
Speaker 2 (11:47):
At a cocktail party, he defecates all over himself. In
big games, six playoff games, that's a fair sample. Some
players don't even get six playoff games, and they're good quarterbacks.
Lamar Jackson six playoff games teams two and four. Okay,
that's a team record.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
How's Lamar doing?
Speaker 2 (12:08):
Six touchdown passes, six interceptions, six fumbles.
Speaker 1 (12:12):
That's six six six. The side of the devil.
Speaker 3 (12:18):
Do do Do Do Do Doo.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
That's called patternicity. By the way, what I did right
there is patternicity. But yeah, he's got six touchdowns, six
interceptions and six fumbles. Now, despite all of that, Lamar
Jackson got paid, all right, he got paid. He's got
a human firewall protecting him from criticism.
Speaker 1 (12:40):
And you know what it is.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
It's the yeah but band, Yeah but yeah but yeah
but yeah but yeah but yeah but yeah but the
yeah but band. Yeah but two time MVP, Yeah but
two time all Pro. Yeah but this guy got hurt.
Yeah but that guy got hurt.
Speaker 1 (12:51):
Yeah but yeah but yeah, yeah but yeah but yeah.
It's a yeah but band, Yeah but band passing the buck.
That's what it is.
Speaker 2 (12:59):
Play the blame game, and you gotta have a fall guy.
You gotta have a fall guys. What you gotta have
It is the Ben Mallor Show. If you would like
to be my fall guy, you can call it right now. Scream, shout, yell,
all of that.
Speaker 1 (13:18):
We'll take your phone calls.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
At eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox. Speakeasy rules
have been relaxed because it is the fourth of July,
which in Canada is just another day, but here it
is our big day here in the States to celebrate,
celebrate good times. I didn't want to mention this before
I forget for the third straight hour. So there is
an NFL player who is a former NFL player is
(13:42):
being used as a political pond. That would be Marshawn Lynch.
Beast Mode is now becoming political mode. You might have
seen the story, maybe not, And it'll actually broadcast where
this show is heard on iHeart. But Marshawn Lynch has
put his name as a co host to a podcast,
(14:03):
but not your normal jock podcast. You see, Marshawn Lynch
his new podcast we called Politiken and it'll feature his agent,
Doug Hendrickson.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
That's not that big a deal.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
It's gonna launch in eleven days, and there was a
news release sent out. But the reason it's interesting is
because the podcast will feature the governor of California, the
guy that's literally burning California up with his decisions. There,
Gavin Newsom, the political leader who's allowing people to steal
(14:39):
whatever they want and commit crimes and not be punished.
That guy's gonna host a podcast with Marshawn Lynch Man
and we know why he's doing it right.
Speaker 1 (14:51):
Gavin Newsom has eyes on the White House.
Speaker 2 (14:53):
Who knows, in the next couple of weeks he might
end up running and replacing the president. This is not
political one man. I'm just saying, but it's it's clear
that Marshawn Lynch is being dragged into this. And I
don't know whether Marshaw Lynch is political or not. He
probably isn't, but maybe he is. But either way, I mean,
you put your name out there. That is a that
is a rocky road when you go down that road,
that is a rocky, rocky road. But he's being used
(15:17):
as a pawn by Gavin Newsom to make him seem cooler,
to make the governor of California, who people don't like.
Most people don't like, even the people that support him
a support and politic don't like him.
Speaker 1 (15:30):
And so now Marshawn Lynch is like, okay, I'm there.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
So from my perspective, I'm okay with it because I'm
in the content business and I'm I guarantee you Marshawn
Lynch is going to say some stupid things and the
governor is going to do stupid things, and they're all
We'll get content out of it right now. Gavin Newsom
claimed that the podcast would have no politics. Yeah, but
(15:54):
everything is political these days, right everything, Everything is political anyway,
it is the best n Malar Show. Will take a
bunch of calls as we celebrate the fourth of July.
Also will have pucked the world with Eddie.

Speaker 3 (17:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (17:26):
It took me all night, but yeah, that's fine.
Speaker 2 (17:30):
Let's go to the phones. Here's a blast in the past.
Let's say hello to Matt, who's in the Valley of
the Sun.
Speaker 3 (17:36):
Now.
Speaker 2 (17:36):
For a while Matt was a regular caller, but not recently.
Hello Matt in Phoenix. What's going on?
Speaker 3 (17:42):
Matt?
Speaker 4 (17:42):
You doing? Ben? Huge fan in the air everywhere here
in Phoenix.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
Welcome in, Matt family. You'll be happy to know that
my relatives. I have cousins who live in Phoenix and
they actually I just had dinner with them. I'm to
talking about that on my podcast this weekend. They leave Phoenix,
Matt in July and August because it's too hot for them.
Speaker 6 (18:05):
Even though they it's a little warm here.
Speaker 4 (18:08):
It's a little warm. You get used to it though.
Speaker 6 (18:10):
It's a dry well.
Speaker 1 (18:11):
They've lived there for a long time.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
I don't think they've ever gotten used to it because
they leave every every July and August.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
It's pretty fair.
Speaker 4 (18:17):
I wanted to get your take on the Arizona Cardinals
Kyler Murray. My take is I never liked him from
the first pick, and I think he's too short, can't
see over the line. But I'm hoping that Marvin Harrison
will come through with a huge Pitgerald fan for many,
many years, and you think he can replace fits.
Speaker 1 (18:40):
Yeah, he is great.
Speaker 2 (18:41):
He's got all the ingredients, but you still have to
do it. But the whole you know, are you are
you pulling my chane here? I have had I have
had battles.
Speaker 1 (18:51):
With Cardinal fans over Kyler Murray over the years here
they have. They've been very upset. Your your local newspaper there,
which I guess is still around, Matt.
Speaker 4 (18:59):
The Republic, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (19:00):
The Republic has written uh angry stories. When I pointed
out what a what a goofball? He's a gadget player
Kyler Murray and he's not. He can't trust him in
big spots. I'm not a Kyler Murray guy and all that.
Speaker 1 (19:14):
And the Cardinals. Cardinals just kind of it's just not
very good. They're just kind of they're a middling team
at this particular point.
Speaker 2 (19:22):
Uh, you know that division. Seattle is also a middling team.
The Rams are a little better than that than the
Niners are really good. So that's that's where we are. Yeah,
but having have a gray fourth, Matt, I gotta go,
I gotta go think, Matt. Let's let's say hello to
the It says the Myth in Atlanta, and I'm told
he's very upset with my hot takes.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
He's annoyed, he's he's very upset. Hello is your name? Myth? M? Hello?
Speaker 4 (19:53):
What?
Speaker 6 (19:56):
That's what it is?
Speaker 1 (19:58):
I can't hear you. What do you you?
Speaker 2 (20:00):
You were mumbling what mephistophiles mesistophiles?
Speaker 1 (20:06):
Yeah, congratulations, all right, that's great.
Speaker 6 (20:10):
So man, I used to listen to you like three
years ago, and I was hoping for Bernie Frado tonight,
but then I remembered, it's not Friday, or it's not
what you can What do you call it? Because I'm pissed.
Look what do you what do you look? Do you
(20:32):
think about the Dallas Mavericks, Like, think about it? Who
did they do?
Speaker 1 (20:39):
Why do I have to think about the Dallas Mavericks?
Speaker 6 (20:41):
What do you man? They just got the best three
point drainer that is going to stand on the perimeter
and drain threes and that why why are you hating
on that?
Speaker 2 (20:56):
I'm not hate he's washed up. I helped make some
three point shots, but he's he's a shell. He's a
shell of what he had been. Listen you you your delusion.
Speaker 6 (21:05):
That's fine seeing him to do with Kyrie and Luca
is to stand on the PERI and Draane three.
Speaker 2 (21:13):
So yeah, So I don't think you understand the falling
star in sports. I think you think these guys just
continue forever and they never get old, and they never
have injuries, and they never fall apart.
Speaker 1 (21:25):
I sense you're not. I feel like your naive.
Speaker 2 (21:27):
I feel like you haven't watched him play the last
couple of years, or.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
You would you wouldn't sound so stupid to make these statements.
Speaker 6 (21:35):
I am not stupid.
Speaker 2 (21:37):
I'm not saying you what you sound stupid though you'd
admit that, right. I mean Klay Thompson last year, back
when Klay Thompson was at his peak of his superpowers.
Speaker 1 (21:46):
He was not just a one trick spot up shooter,
but he was not. He was a guy. Let me explain.
Let me explain, because I clearly you know that.
Speaker 2 (21:54):
So Klay Thompson would would headfake and blow past defenders
and and dunk you know what he dunks he had
last year for the Warriors all season two two all
season Do you he has no explosion?
Speaker 6 (22:08):
Watch if you watch some Mavericks this year, you would
know all we need is somebody to stand on.
Speaker 3 (22:15):
You know this.
Speaker 2 (22:16):
You know this was a fluke crun and they're not
going to do it again. So that's why I thank
you for the call, and thank you for not cursing.
I thought you were going to curse. Let's say, hello,
now it's a holiday. It's officially a holiday because we
have Dick and Dayton.

Speaker 1 (23:45):

In the playoffs?
Speaker 7 (23:49):

despite all of these different songs that are out there,
the basic building blocks of music, all of these songs,
all of them, right, all of them. There are twenty
(25:42):
two million songs a year, and there are only twelve
notes that are available. That's it, twelve notes. There's even
less doing gas baggery, even less. Let's get over again,
a double dose Eddie. But right now, let's get you
caught up on everything going on in the overnight, and
we'll have a fun fact as well, fun fact.
Speaker 1 (26:00):
But here he is games of note Garcia.
Speaker 3 (26:04):
Yeah, all right, thank you man.
Speaker 5 (26:06):
We start with the NBA news where the LA Lakers
and start Lebron James agree on a two year, one
hundred and four million dollars max deal. The second year
as a player option, includes a no trade clause. Meanwhile,
Lebron James Junior, better known as Brownie, he gets a
four year deal with the Lakers on the same day,
worth seven point nine million. This ufter being drafted in
the second round. Last month. In baseball, you had the
Phillies over the Cups five to three. Philadelphia now major
(26:26):
league best fifty seven and twenty nine.
Speaker 3 (26:28):
On the year.
Speaker 5 (26:29):
Orioles down the Mariners four to one. Ryan o'hearne homer
drove in three of the four runs for Baltimore, who's
now won six of seven and has a two game
lead on the Yankees for first in the AL East.
Yankees lose to the Reds three to two. Astros beat
the Blue Jays nine to two. Houston now nineteen and
nine since June, first best record in the American League
over that span, and they're just two games back of
Seattle for first in the AL West. Now, Guardians lose
(26:50):
to the White Sox eight to two, Dodgers Faull of
the Diamondbacks twelve to four. Couple of homers for Christian
Walker for Arizona. Brewers shut off the Rockies three to nothing.
Milwaukee started Colin Ray seven shutout innings in the win.
Speaker 3 (27:02):
Twins fall to the Tigers nine to two.
Speaker 5 (27:04):
Minnesota did it a home run for the twenty first
straight game, but Detroit hit four of them, including grand
slam from Carston. Kelly Braves over the Giants three to one.
Atlanta starter Chris sil gets his eleventh one of the year.
He's tied with Kansas City Seth Lugo for the Major
League lead. Royals beat the Rays four to two, while
the Red Sox down the Marlin seven too. So Kenzondy's
still holding a half game lead on Boston for the
final wildcard spot. In the American League, Padres beat the
(27:26):
Rangers six to four, while the Cardinals lose to the
Pirates Pittsburgh with the five to four walk off win
in ten innings. So we got the All Star Game
coming up. The starters have been announced in both the
NL and the AL. In the National League, you've got
William Contrerez of the Brewers, your catcher, Bryce Harper of
the Phillies, Alex Baum and Trey Turner also with the Phillies.
Your first third and short stops. Second baseman is Katel
(27:49):
Marte of the Diamondbacks. You're outfielders Christian Yellwich are the Brewers,
Jerkson Profar of the Patres, and Fernando de East Junior
of the Padres. And you're designated hitter at show Hey
Tani American League All Stars at Lee Schman as your
catcher for the oriol Vladimir Greer Junior, the Blue Jays

(28:11):
Soto the Yankees. Stephen Kwan is there as well. Actually,
Gunner Henderson is the short stop. Stephen Kuan's it out
fold there, and Jordan Alvarez of the Astros is your
designated hitter. Those are your All Star starters a right
for Major League Baseball's All Star Game.
Speaker 2 (28:24):
The top vote getter was Aaron Judge from what I read,
and I think it makes sense. Bryce Harper was the
top guy in the National League. Well, movie bets got hurt?
What happened to al Tania? I thought Otani would get
all the votes. I don't know I would have bet
on that.
Speaker 3 (28:40):
Oh, I see what you did.

Thank you. It was a busy week in the NHL.
Speaker 5 (30:59):
You the NHL Draft at the Sphere in Las Vegas
this past Friday and Saturday. No surprises with the first
selection San Jose Sharks taking Mecklin Celebrini with the number
one overall pick, the first Hobe Baker Award winner the
Hockey Heisman as the top college player, and he also
goes number one overall.
Speaker 3 (31:15):
That had never happened before.
Speaker 5 (31:16):
Still hasn't decided if he's going to go back to
Boston University for a sophomore season or turn pro. Go
pro school was boring, Gore in your living. Every draft
has a controversial player, Thank you. Every draft as a
controversial player, and there was in this draft as well.
His name is Trevor Connelly. Supposed to be a top
ten pick. He fell in nineteen taken by the Vegas
(31:36):
Golden Knights. He had posted some pictures on social media
or a picture that had a swastika on it. Also
alleged to have used a racial slur that was never proven,
but some office issues there, but he dropped, but he
still was taken in the.
Speaker 3 (31:51):
First round of the top twenty.
Speaker 5 (31:52):
There nothing makes me feel old like seeing players I
watched have their kids get drafted. Saku Koivu, Miroslabsha, Tam
Michael Samuelson, Derek plant Eurite Fisher all NHL players whose
kids got drafted. The most notable though, tej Iginla, the
son of Hall of Famer Jerome Aginla. Team was taken
by Utah with their that's right, yeah, he actually got
(32:15):
drafted before his dad did so. Bragging rights to him.
Draft usually dominated by Canadians and Americans, but you've also
got Russians, Swedes, Finns, and some guys from the Czech Republic.
But ever every once in a few other countries kind
of emerged, Switzerland, Germany, Slovakia.
Speaker 3 (32:28):
But this year was Norway. The first two Norwegian.
Speaker 5 (32:32):
Players ever selected in the first round we had in
this draft, So we'll see if Norway is an emerging
hockey country.
Speaker 1 (32:37):
There, Dorway or Norway.
Speaker 3 (32:40):
That's very good, yes, thank you.
Speaker 5 (32:42):
On Monday, we had the start of free agency and
the Nashville Predators were the big winners. They land former
Lightning captain at two times Stanley Cup winner Steven Stamcos.
They get former Golden Knights playoff MVP Jonathan Marchiso, as
well as Covenant defenseman Brady Say.
Speaker 3 (32:55):
A lot of teams would have been happy with one
of those guys. They got three of them.
Speaker 5 (32:58):
The NHL was gonna allow re former Blackhawks executives to
now seek employment in the league.
Speaker 3 (33:03):
They had been banned in twenty.
Speaker 5 (33:05):
Twenty one after an investigation of how they handled a
sexual assault involving a player and a coach. Back in
twenty ten, stan bowman Al mc isaac and Joela Quinnville
can now seek employment.
Speaker 2 (33:16):
Now Quinnville I interviewed back in the day and he's
coached a bunch of teams around the Nahoy's been.
Speaker 5 (33:20):
Roun Yeah, had won Stanley Cupps. All those guys that
are part of Stanley Cup winners in Chicago. Bowman already
being mentioned for the vacant GM john and Edmonton where
Ken Hollands suddenly left, and there is one head coaching
vacancy with the Columbus Blue Jackets to see if they're
interested in Quinnville. Seattle, Kracken made history. They hired the
first female assistant coach, Jessica Campbell, who had been an
assistant on Dan Biles with staff in the minor leagues,
(33:43):
joins him in Seattle as he gets promoted to be
head coach.
Speaker 3 (33:46):
So first female.
Speaker 5 (33:47):
Assistant coach, Nathan McKinnon of the Avalanche is your MVP.
You had Winnipeg Jets net miner Connor Hellibuck winning the
Vesnan Trophy as the top goaligue, Quinn Hughes the Vancouver
Conductor Norris Trophy, top defenseman Connor Madard of the Blackhawks
the Calder Trophy as Rookie of the Year. Finally, the
Florida Panthers had their Stanley Cup victory parade on Sunday.
It was the usual mix of drunkenness and naughty language.
(34:08):
Uh you had Panther players shouting F bombs, but one
in particular, though, yelled an F bomb at a professional golfer.
Apparently earlier this season, Brooks Kopka, who is a golf
star and a Panther superfan, was videotaped at a game
shouting at Panthers defenseman Aaron ed Pladd, saying that he
sucked and was a pylon.
Speaker 3 (34:30):
They Kepka had a few drinks as well, it appeared
so f Plaid.
Speaker 5 (34:34):
Took the stage at the victory valley, held an orange
cone over his head and screamed to the microphone, F
you brooks Kopka.
Speaker 3 (34:44):
He didn't just say, he said the other thing.
Speaker 1 (34:46):
Well, of course, yeah, I.
Speaker 3 (34:47):
Lit a revenge on Brooks the world, Paddy.
Speaker 1 (34:50):
I actually have two hockey stories.
Speaker 2 (34:52):
All right, All right, now, you didn't mention this because
you hate the Ducks.
Speaker 1 (34:56):

drafted a Seneke? Is that his name?
Speaker 4 (35:02):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (35:03):
I did see that. His reaction had a very good
You know his.
Speaker 2 (35:06):
Mom is no, his mom, I read this on the internet,
must be true a longtime hd TV host. Yes, his
mom is Candice Olsen, who hosted a show called Divine Design.
Speaker 1 (35:21):
I don't think I.
Speaker 2 (35:22):
Ever saw that show, but she also she hosted a
couple of different shows for HGTV.
Speaker 1 (35:28):
And her kid was drafted by the Ducks with a
third pick in the draft.
Speaker 5 (35:32):
He had a very stunned reaction at being taken number three.
He was completely stupefied.
Speaker 3 (35:36):
It was. It was pretty fun.
Speaker 1 (35:38):
Edie out of the main event.
Speaker 2 (35:39):
All the Internet believes the new nickname for the Utah Hockey.

Speaker 1 (35:45):
Oh yes, Bill.
Speaker 5 (35:48):

selections for the team, the general manager and in the

Speaker 1 (36:33):
He's going to get in.
Speaker 5 (36:35):
We heard a prediction of what the name would be,
and Lorena said Yeti before anyone else. She was ahead
of everyone, Lorain. If it's the YETI, I will buy
her a yetti jersey.
Speaker 3 (36:45):
That's right, it's we're a step closer. She should have
angled for like a YETI cooler or something that would
have been a wow.
Speaker 1 (36:52):
I don't camp, and I'm really bad with coolers. I
don't empty him out so they get all moldy and
gross on the inside.
