garbage time was not that close to the drama O
Rama Ceedee Lamb got paid and he also got into
(00:22):
the face of Dak Prescott, who also got paid. On
the Cowboys sidelines something or nothing. Also, d Marcus Lawrence
says the Cowboys will be fine once they stopped playing
little league football?
Speaker 2 (00:37):
Is it that simple?
Speaker 1 (00:38):
And Jerry Jones says the Cowboys couldn't afford Derrick Henry.
How does that one hit you? We'll get to all
of that and more right now here. It is our
number two, putting the capital D on drama. Welcome. In
the beginning of another hour of the Ben Mahlor Show.

Speaker 1 (01:45):
Should be an o supermarket Steve who somehow did not
make it into the mass photograph we took at the
Mallard Meeting meet, the last one we did in Vegas,
and he and his wife were there, but they did
not make the photo.
Speaker 2 (01:59):
Bad job by them.
Speaker 1 (02:01):
And there were other people that did not make the
photo either that we were surprised somehow did not make
it in. But our lead this hour coming from deep
in the heart of Texas, and we go where the
news of the day, Texas. And this is our post
mortem on Week three of the NFL with two two
games to go tonight, two games on the card, doubleheader
(02:21):
Monday night football action. But as we continue our in
depth frame by frames of Bruder film style breakdown a
week three, a humdinger, humdinger of a story. Now Derreck
Henry was on a rampage for the Ravens, the Poets
no longer the Dead Poets Society, the Ravens waking up
(02:43):
their one hundred and fifty one yards from Derreck Henry,
and not one, but two touchdowns. Lamark Jackson picking a
part the Dallas Cowboy defense selectively, he had a couple
of scores. The Ravens jumped out to a massively the
final score miss leading. Baltimore ends up winning twenty eight
to twenty five. The game was not that close. It
(03:05):
was not that close. So the Ravens get to win
and the congratulations they're no longer winless one in two
now Baltimore. But the better story, as it almost always
is in the losing locker room. That is where the
finger pointing is underway. Now, last week, before we get
to the latest drama o rama, last week, Micah Parsons
(03:28):
pointed out that the Cowboy defense didn't play hard. Now,
that flustered Zimmer and McCarthy, the coach's defensive coordinator, head coach,
and they came out and said, oh no, they played hard.
They played hard, because that's like taboo for a coach.
You can't say you didn't play hard. That's like the no, no,
you can't say that because that's on you anyway. Nonetheless,
so that was what happened last week. You had Micah
(03:50):
Parsons saying the defense didn't play hard. Now this week,
big money big money, big money in no way may
stop wide receiver C. D.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
Lamb.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
He underscored the day, say he highlighted the day, how
every want to say, first half red zone from mall
inside the ten yard line, and that haunted the Cowboys
as they attempted to frantically come back, which just amounted
to a lot of garbage time stats. The issue was
(04:19):
not just the fumble, It was the pouty face. It
was the pouty face. He had terrible body language, and
the body language tells a lot of the story. A
lot of the stories the body language and so terrible
body language. He also got into a verbal brew ha ha,
a sideline rubar with Dak Prescott and longtime offensive lineman
(04:44):
Zach Martin was also.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
Involved at one point. So there's a lot going on.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
Then after the game, Ceedee Lamb, was he man enough
to go out and face the cameras and the microphones. No,
he took the cowardly road and high tail it out
of the locker room when the reporters entered, like you
expected and to actually be there, Come on, what's wrong
with you?
Speaker 2 (05:04):
All right? So let us discuss the question.
Speaker 1 (05:07):
Ceedee Lamb is Ceedee Lamb getting into it with Dak
Prescott of the Cowboys something or nothing?
Speaker 2 (05:17):
Is this just a one or two day stories. There's
something more going on here.
Speaker 1 (05:20):
So I've got Hasbro, Washington, Irving and Uk and we
will combine all of these things together and we will
go for a test drive.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
Is what we're going to do now.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
Num Burn Right, the arrow is pointing towards something, and
it's something delicious. If you happen to be a gas
bag or a blowheart, boys, this a great story. Just
soak it all up right, all the flavors, all the juices.
What a wonderful story this is because anarchy on the
(05:55):
Cowboy ship. If you were hear the Cowboys coming apart
of the seams in week two, Micah Parsons and the
coaching staff in week three, Ceedee Lamb and Dak Prescott. Wow,
how great is this? How great is now? Jerry Jones,
who is the maestro of the drama O Rama, Jerry
(06:16):
Jones did it again? Jerry because he suffers from fomo
fear of missing out. God forbid Dak Prescott go to
another team and lose in the first round every year,
or Ceedee Lamb go somewhere else and flop in big games. No, no, no, no,
you got to keep the band together, right, So we
kept the band together, this iconic group of abject failures.
The worst you think about. The Cowboy's not gonna win
(06:38):
anything this year. And this will be the record. This
is going to beat the record for the longest run
of incompetence by a quarterback with one team not getting
to a championship game, a conference championship game. Dak Prescott's
gonna have that record. So that you got Dak on
one side, ceedee lamb on it. These guys both got
(07:00):
they both got paid their loggerheads. You've got the rotn
Mike McCarthy, clueless Mike on the sidelines, lame duck head coach,
dazed and confused. All this is going on defense garbage
garbage defense. Right generally speaking, the Cowboys are you know
(07:21):
what they are? They're a Hasbro team. The star players
are there there Hasbro guys. It's a spin off of
My Pony. I know Brian, Brian over there loves my Pony.
It's a spin off of My Pony. It's the show Pony.
It's a show pony because ceedee lamb. When you do
what he did. You're a show pony, that's the way
(07:42):
to describe it, right, You're you're there when you know,
when the things are.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
Going well, you're out in front.
Speaker 1 (07:47):
Like is it true that had the Cowboys won that
game and Ceedee Lamb had a massive statistical game, he
would have been out there doing a pirouet on the
catwalk if Dallas had won, of course, of course, but
they lost, and so you know, kind of rhetorical question.
Speaker 2 (08:01):
They lost, and.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
So he hops, skips and jumps out of there when
the media is there rather than taking questions. And he
can't even pretend, at least Dak Prescott pretends Dak's terrible too.
But Dak could just gives some tired cliches, is what
he does. But ceedeo am he doesn't show up to camp,
he gets paid, and then when the going gets tough,
(08:22):
he high tails it out of there and makes his
teammates have to answer questions because he can't.
Speaker 2 (08:26):
Be bothered with that.
Speaker 1 (08:28):
That's what we call a bad teammate, kids, all right now,
Page two saying in Dallas, more of the rhetoric. You
have veteran edge rusher DeMarcus Lawrence, who told the media
that he believes the Cowboys haven't been playing to the
best of their abilities. Really you think so, But they'll
get back on track.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
He said. Quote, here's the money quote, once we.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
Get out of playing little league football. I thought it
was Paul Border. He said, little league football and get
back to playing pro football. We'll be all right, the
Cowboy defensive players, said de Marcus Lawrence, saying the Cowboys
will be fine once they stopped playing little league football.
Speaker 2 (09:08):
Is it that simple? So I'm gonna shake my head
no on this.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
It is not that simple because you have deep rooted
fundamental issues on both sides of the ball, as we
have documented here with Ceedee Lamb and his issues Dak
Prescott going back and forth there. But you also have
the defense where Baltimore and New Orleans treated them like
(09:33):
Plato and manipulated them in the words that hit are
the words of the late Washington Irving, a classic, the
legend of sleepy Hollow, because that would sum up the
Dallas Cowboys that they're sleepy and they're hollow. They don't
show up on defense in the week two, according to
(09:54):
Michael Parsons, in Week three, they're just hollow, just hollow,
and you you checked, as the kids like to say,
check the receipts.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
There and it's not good. Not good? All right? Now?
Speaker 1 (10:06):
Final point after the loss, Cowboys owner Jerry Jones was
asked why why he did not pursue Derrick Henry in
free agency and his answer was short and sweet. In fact,
he said all of four words. He said, we couldn't
afford Derrick Henry is what he said.
Speaker 2 (10:27):
Close quote.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
Then he gives some weird analogy about like a house,
like he already had a house, but they didn't really
have a house because they added Zeke Elliots, so it's
not like they actually had a house, not a good house.
It was more like a like a shanty townhouse situation anyway,
all right, so Jerry Jones again, Jerry Jones says, the
Cowboys could not afford Derrick Henry. How does that one
(10:50):
hit you? How does that one hit you?
Speaker 4 (10:53):
So?
Speaker 1 (10:54):
Right out of the UK? Terry and England can back
me up on this. I haven't seen a lot of
trash talk from Terry and England. He's a forty nine
er fan. I guess he's keeping quiet.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
I don't blame him. I'd hide too if I was
a forty nine er fan, that's pretty embarrassing. My god, rams.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
Missing two offensive linemen, two wide receivers, a couple of
guys on defense and they beat the forty nine as well. Anyway.
Jerry Jones again, Jerry Jones saying, hey, it's we didn't
have the money and all that stuffuldnt afford him. But
it is out of the UK's called there's a term
they use in the UK's called porky pies, which are lies. Right,
It's a version of the truth, as we like to say,
(11:28):
just not the whole truth and definitely not nothing but
the truth.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
That's the reality here.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
The salary cap, as we have learned, I had the
epiphany years ago, the pifhany years ago. The reality is
that we are salary cap truthers. The salary cap is
something very easily to manipulate. It's a myth. It's a
fiction that is used. It has been weaponized by NFL
(11:53):
teams if they want to get rid of an unwanted
player salary cap, if they don't want to spend money
on a play salary cap. But we know because we've
seen it. The voodoo economics, the voodoo bugaloo economics of
it all that you simply restructure some contracts. You move
roster bonuses around into signing bonuses, You add voidable years,
(12:16):
et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. You renegotiate certain deals,
and all of a sudden, you can sign whoever you
want to your heart's desire. Where there's a will, there's
a way. And Jerry Jones did not have any motivation.
If I remember correctly, Derrick Henry essentially said the Cowboys
never made him an offer. He wanted to play for
(12:37):
the Cowboys, but they didn't want it. Now, it's yet
to be determined how this story ends with Derrick Henry
does have a lot of miles on the odometer, and
typically running backs when they get to a certain point,
their production goes.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
Down, down, down, down, down, does limbo? How low can
you go?
Speaker 1 (12:50):
However, you and I both know that Derek Henry looked
amazing for the most part against the Cowboys on Sunday. Now,
how much of that is the Cowboys defense and how
much of that is Derek Henry, Well, that's to be determined.
But that's where we are right now. It is the
Bane Maler Show. We thank you for hanging out with us.
We know you have options, not good ones, but we're
here for you all night, five nights a week, and
(13:11):
then really eight days a week because I do the

up and running. I even got a TV show now,
it's crazy. Maybe not after this week and more mediocre
picks against the spread. I'm waiting for my big Baffosaco weekend.
This could be it now. I mentioned Dak Prescott and
Cedeu am getting into it. Well, Dak has issued a
(13:33):
bit of a manifesto. I don't know if that's the
right word for It's a small manifesto, but Dak Prescott
has a warning. What is Dak Prescott's warning to cowboy fans?
Speaker 2 (13:46):
Did you see this? Do you hear about this?
Speaker 4 (13:47):
No?
Speaker 1 (13:47):
You didn't, arguod I'll fill you in on that. We'll
get to it, and we will do it next.

Justin and Cincinnati says, is the David Bell Monologue Hour three? No,
I think that's our chances that Dick and Dayton realize
the Reds got rid of David Bell or manager. Probably
not really high, probably not really high A. So I
did want to say before I forget here. This guy
lived a long life. He was actually an influence on me.
(15:07):
Al McCoy, the voice of the Phoenix Suns for years.
He died over the weekend too his nineties. Had been
the voice of the Suns for like fifty years, and
I met him several times over the years and tell
some of these stories on the podcast. But he was
a very nice a very nice guy. To me and
a long time. I think it's the longest tenured NBA

a positive. Ed He's not here. We don't have to
hear the score. Good, all right.

Nosterdina says it's glorious watching the train wrecks that are
the Cowboys and forty nine ers. It's the Seahawks rising time.
Oh you just wait, No streudenas you just wait? Oh yeah, reality,
you got Geno Smith.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
Good luck, good luck. There are limits.
Speaker 1 (16:13):
It's like restrict your plate racing when you have Geno
Smith as your quarterback. Benito the Cowboy fan, long suffering
Cowboy fan, says, you're right about the Cowboys. Bro, it's
been a clown show these last two games. Enjoyable clown
show for show. Let's go to the phones with say
hello to Eenie Meenie miney mo. Let's say hello to
Angry Bill, who's in Florida. Hello Angry Bill, Good morning

Speaker 2 (17:21):
Yeah, there he is right there. Hi James, Yeah, yeah,

Speaker 1 (17:34):
He said didn't he say he said something? He said

Speaker 2 (18:07):

Speaker 4 (18:09):
This is my love hands on my.
Speaker 2 (18:14):
Sleep talk.
Speaker 1 (18:21):
Did he say something about a fish stick? I thought
he said something about love or something. It's like very bizarre. Yeah,
I don't know. All right, Well, thank you. I'm glad
we took that call. Good old James, he never disappoints. Well,
(18:41):
Dak Prescott, he has a warning for you, cowboy fan. Yeah,
you talking to you, Benito, the long suffern cowboy fan
and all the others. Dak Prescott as he was sashating
his way off the field following yet another gutless effort
by the Dallas Cowboys, something that Dak has become accustomed
two over the years. Well, he was wandering through the
(19:04):
bottles of Jerry's world, and he has said but now,
but before we get to the statement, I don't want
to hear any of these idiots say, well, the Cowboys
almost came back, they almost won the that was garbage time.
It was twenty eighth to six going to the fourth quarter.
Twenty eight to six going to the fourth quarter. Game
was over over, over over, and so congratulations Dak. Has
(19:28):
anyone had better numbers in the fourth quarter of blowout
games than Dak Prescott.
Speaker 2 (19:34):
He did it again.
Speaker 1 (19:35):
Dak Prescott had one hundred and eighty seven yards passing
in two touchdowns in the fourth quarter alloon in the
fourth quarter. He had those that the stats. I'm not
making that up. You can double check. One hundred and
eighty seven yards and two touchdowns in the fourth quarter
for Dak Prescott, very similar to what he did against
the Green Bay Packers in that playoff game where he
(19:57):
had the final numbers didn't look quite as bad because
he had a out of Garber's temps says, anyway, get
to the point, please, all right, here's the point. So
Dak Prescott had a five word warning as he was
walking off the field the Ravens dominating the Cowboys, and
what did he say? Dak Prescott said, quote jump off
(20:19):
if you want quotes. Quote jump off if you want
what exactly you jumping off? The vomit comment? Is that
where you're jumping off? Like, hey, Dak, spoiler alert, spoiler alert,
You guys blow that's the reality, Dak.
Speaker 2 (20:39):
Come on, it's ridiculous, jump it all.
Speaker 1 (20:43):
What do you what are you afraid of. If you're
a Cowboy fan, you clearly are not to jump off type, right.
I mean, the Cowboys have sucked for a generation in
terms of playoff performance. Think about the teams that have
had a couple of good years now and again that
have won Super Bowls and the Dallas Cowboys, who for
the most part have had decent regular season teams and
(21:06):
going back a generation over, actually a generation's giving them
credit because the generation is twenty five years.
Speaker 2 (21:14):
It's longer than that.
Speaker 1 (21:16):
Now it's a generation plus where the Dallas Cowboys have
been blah and Dak Prescott's say, oh yeah.
Speaker 2 (21:23):
This, I'm warning, jump off, jump off if you want.
Speaker 1 (21:30):
Yeah, mass max mass eccidents of Cowboy fans guess.
Speaker 2 (21:37):
Me, I'm out, I'm done, I'm out of here. Co
later and uh yeah.
Speaker 1 (21:43):
But here's the odd thing, and this is an unpopular opinion,
it's a developing take, but for the Cowboys to truly
ever get good again, there has to be a fan revolt.
You canna say the fans don't matter, but all I
know is that as a Dodger fan, the Dodgers were
(22:04):
very mediocre. They had this guy named Frank McCourt. This
parking weasel who owned the team and was a tightwad
and didn't know what he was doing, and so the
people stopped showing up. The Dodgers have always either led
baseball or been number two or number three in a
tenants and usually they leave baseball in at ten. Used
to be the Cardinals, but the Dodgers for the most
part of lead baseball in attens. And there was about
(22:25):
a four year period where the fans stopped showing up,
they stopped watching the games on TV, and Bud Selick
was the Commissioner of Baseball and freaked out. And the
people at Baseball like, wait a minute, this is our
cash cow. We're killing our cash cow. What is going on?
And so they forced this guy, Frank McCourt to sell
the team. And then after that the Dodgers have been
(22:50):
in the playoffs every year. They had this one World Series,
and they'll win another one. Maybe not this year, but
they'll win another one. Glory times for the Dodgers every year.
This is what I'm trying to get Angels fans to do,
but the Angels aren't. I'm telling you it works, but yeah,
but they're not as important to baseball as the Dodgers.
That is true, but you had the ultimate You had
(23:10):
the ultimate f you from your owner. He said, I'm
gonna sell the team. Sich, aren't Marina the only I'm
gonna sell the team? Just kidding suckers. Were they against
for worst team of the year or from all time?
Speaker 2 (23:23):
Right?
Speaker 1 (23:24):
Well, the the White Sox are far and away. The
worst team is the Chicago White Sox, but the Angels
are and then even the second one, like the Marlins
are the second worst, but they're at the bottom. They're boring,
just a bad franchise. Yeah, boring, boring boy.
Speaker 2 (23:39):
Anyway, it is the Ben Malord Show.
Speaker 1 (23:42):
As we are continuing on chopping down these overnight hours,
it will take some more of these amazing phone calls.
Oh my god, sleeping WNBA, talk my god. This is
the scraping the bottom of the barrel. But right now,
speaking of that, let's get over to these sports new
the desk right now and a man who was wearing
(24:02):
free clothing that he picked up at different sporting events,
A had and a shirt.
Speaker 6 (24:06):
We say, yeah, when I was working at the US Open,
I was an MC on court seventeen Flushing Meadows.
Speaker 2 (24:11):
They gave me these these shirts.
Speaker 1 (24:13):
Flushing Meadows.
Speaker 2 (24:14):
Do you know where that's from? Yeah, the toilet, the
rug rats where they sent Grandpa.
Speaker 6 (24:20):
Really, that's the city in New York. Stop at Flushing Meadows.
Speaker 1 (24:24):
You're lying, You're you're on the air, Lorena, Loraina.
Speaker 2 (24:28):
People listening. Have you never been to New York?
Speaker 1 (24:32):
Lorena.
Speaker 6 (24:32):
It's right near the Mets Stadium, by the way.
Speaker 1 (24:35):
It's I was about to say it was. It was
a type of hole, but it's it's not the greatest place.
A lot of chop shops. Well, it used to be.
They when the Mets played at Chase Stadium, there was
all chop shops around here.
Speaker 2 (24:47):
I don't know if it's still like that anymore. But
usually I don't go out that way, you know.
Speaker 1 (24:51):
I try to avoid LaGuardia, you know, you know when
you're finding it, even in the Kennedy you have to
drive by that area to get into the city.
Speaker 6 (24:58):
So, yeah, when was a lot time you were there?
Ben in New York?
Speaker 2 (25:02):
Uh, two years ago somewhere.
Speaker 1 (25:05):
My brother lives there, So okay, every so often, got it? Yeah,
I got to Boston more. I go there more.
Speaker 6 (25:13):
Usually I was thinking, like you and I could do
like a malur fanatic group meet and greet. Do you
want to do that or like, so my people with
my people and your people? Who are your people? They
are in the underworld, the undercurrent of the social media
landscape of.
Speaker 2 (25:30):
Twitter, and they named some of them. Well, I think
you know who is at the top of the list.
Speaker 6 (25:35):
Theres uh ferg Dog is.
Speaker 1 (25:40):
It has been told to me by Larina off there
that we think that that is actually you, that that
is your That's what she told me off here, that
you are actually running a burner account as fer Dog,
and you pull it off really well.
Speaker 6 (25:54):
Not as well as Jonas pulls it off on the
weekends with his burner accounts.
Speaker 2 (25:58):

a jack ass by going out and beating your forty
nine ers, but so'll be it.

Speaker 1 (29:44):
Just just for the record, at the time I said
that I was accurate. At the time I said it
was accurate, So I was accurate. Now, when you think
of fall, yes, you think I think of football. I
think of like leaves turning colors. That doesn't happen where
we are, but leaves turning.
Speaker 2 (30:01):
Colors, right, I think of that, Yes, Mike.
Speaker 1 (30:03):
My friend Arnie, Arnie says, I have to go to
Vermont when the leaves change the colors there.

I got I gotta go there.
Speaker 1 (30:10):
Everything dies in the in winter, so changed nice color
like orange and all that, and then having drops dead.

I grew up in New York and I love the
leaves and you know, we actually drove down to New
Hampshire one year or many moons ago when I was
a kid, and it was even more beautiful there.
Speaker 2 (31:05):
So yeah, that's what Arnie. Arnie says. I mean, he's
in Vermont, but he says, you got to go. There's
one road.
Speaker 1 (31:10):
That's why they filmed the New Beetle Juice up in
his neck of the woods there in Vermont.
Speaker 4 (31:14):
Yeah, no, it's I mean, we're you know, I still
see some really beautiful leaves here in the Bay Area.
But you know, new York was great. My dad used
to mail me leaves from New York. What I was like,
missed them?
Speaker 1 (31:27):
Wow, that's the next level, Dad, What are gonna mail
your daughter leaves? I know, leaves, leaves?
Speaker 2 (31:36):
Did they survive the trip?
Speaker 4 (31:37):
Oh? Yeah. People who weren't from these didn't quite understand
the fascination with leaves. I lived in a student co
op and I put them all around my room, And
to this day, if I see a leaf, I'll think,
you know, my dad favorite world.

Brutus the Barber beefcake from Rob in Vegas, Tim Wallack
Expo legend from mister nice Guy, Hayden Fox from Andy
of Lion o' Lakes Minnesota, Vincent Kay McMahon from Alf
the Alien Opineer classic photo. There a couple of legends
unless they're not. Who else do we have a page down?
(34:29):
Joe Diffy from Eric Mick Cronin guessed by Ferg Dog
of Finley's Burner account right there?
Speaker 2 (34:36):
Who else do we have?
Speaker 1 (34:38):
Justin in Cincinnati Sis He sent one with Brian Finley's
pee wee coach as his answer. Fudgie went with some
kind of Brian Finley, Doll, Chuck Pagano, guests by Ike
in Roseville, Minnesota, Jim Mora from Miguel on Fire. All right,
what say you quick guy? Yeah, Admiral Ackbar the correct
(34:59):

work out, so well, here we go, here we go.
How about that?
Speaker 5 (35:09):
To the third degree, this is one big gets grail.
Speaker 7 (35:16):
At only twenty two years old, Red Star Elie de
la Cruz became the first shortstop in NLB history to
have a twenty five homer sixty five steal season. Afterwards,
he told the media that he is eyeing the newly
created fifty to fifty club and do you.
Speaker 1 (35:29):
Think he could achieve that? Yes, because if you if
you're motivating, he plays at ballpark where it's easy to
hit home runs, he obviously can steal. He's as fast
as anybody in baseball. So yeah, that's your motivation, of course,
if your desire. We've seen it now. Well, this is
the first time with Otani, but we we had last year.
Akudo came close.
Speaker 7 (35:50):
Next, Paul George made a podcast appearance over the weekend
where by George he was asked what player under twenty
five he would build a franchise around, and he was
not allowed to pick Luka Donzik, Anthony Edwards or Victor
win Benyama. Paul George went with Pallo Benchero.
Speaker 2 (36:05):
Who would you make Ben?
Speaker 1 (36:08):
I haven't thought about the NBA since last season, Coop,

What's wrong with you? My gud
Hello and welcome. It's our number two. You put the
capital D on drama. You put the capital D on Dallas.
The Ravens dominate the Cowboys of the final score and
garbage time was not that close to the drama O
Rama Ceedee Lamb got paid and he also got into
(00:22):
the face of Dak Prescott, who also got paid. On
the Cowboys sidelines something or nothing. Also, d Marcus Lawrence
says the Cowboys will be fine once they stopped playing
little league football?
Speaker 2 (00:37):
Is it that simple?
Speaker 1 (00:38):
And Jerry Jones says the Cowboys couldn't afford Derrick Henry.
How does that one hit you? We'll get to all
of that and more right now here. It is our
number two, putting the capital D on drama. Welcome. In
the beginning of another hour of the Ben Mahlor Show.

Should be an o supermarket Steve who somehow did not
make it into the mass photograph we took at the
Mallard Meeting meet, the last one we did in Vegas,
and he and his wife were there, but they did
not make the photo.
Speaker 2 (01:59):
Bad job by them.
Speaker 1 (02:01):
And there were other people that did not make the
photo either that we were surprised somehow did not make
it in. But our lead this hour coming from deep
in the heart of Texas, and we go where the
news of the day, Texas. And this is our post
mortem on Week three of the NFL with two two
games to go tonight, two games on the card, doubleheader
(02:21):
Monday night football action. But as we continue our in
depth frame by frames of Bruder film style breakdown a
week three, a humdinger, humdinger of a story. Now Derreck
Henry was on a rampage for the Ravens, the Poets
no longer the Dead Poets Society, the Ravens waking up
(02:43):
their one hundred and fifty one yards from Derreck Henry,
and not one, but two touchdowns. Lamark Jackson picking a
part the Dallas Cowboy defense selectively, he had a couple
of scores. The Ravens jumped out to a massively the
final score miss leading. Baltimore ends up winning twenty eight
to twenty five. The game was not that close. It
(03:05):
was not that close. So the Ravens get to win
and the congratulations they're no longer winless one in two
now Baltimore. But the better story, as it almost always
is in the losing locker room. That is where the
finger pointing is underway. Now, last week, before we get
to the latest drama o rama, last week, Micah Parsons
(03:28):
pointed out that the Cowboy defense didn't play hard. Now,
that flustered Zimmer and McCarthy, the coach's defensive coordinator, head coach,
and they came out and said, oh no, they played hard.
They played hard, because that's like taboo for a coach.
You can't say you didn't play hard. That's like the no, no,
you can't say that because that's on you anyway. Nonetheless,
so that was what happened last week. You had Micah
(03:50):
Parsons saying the defense didn't play hard. Now this week,
big money big money, big money in no way may
stop wide receiver C. D.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
Lamb.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
He underscored the day, say he highlighted the day, how
every want to say, first half red zone from mall
inside the ten yard line, and that haunted the Cowboys
as they attempted to frantically come back, which just amounted
to a lot of garbage time stats. The issue was
(04:19):
not just the fumble, It was the pouty face. It
was the pouty face. He had terrible body language, and
the body language tells a lot of the story. A
lot of the stories the body language and so terrible
body language. He also got into a verbal brew ha ha,
a sideline rubar with Dak Prescott and longtime offensive lineman
(04:44):
Zach Martin was also.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
Involved at one point. So there's a lot going on.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
Then after the game, Ceedee Lamb, was he man enough
to go out and face the cameras and the microphones. No,
he took the cowardly road and high tail it out
of the locker room when the reporters entered, like you
expected and to actually be there, Come on, what's wrong
with you?
Speaker 2 (05:04):
All right? So let us discuss the question.
Speaker 1 (05:07):
Ceedee Lamb is Ceedee Lamb getting into it with Dak
Prescott of the Cowboys something or nothing?
Speaker 2 (05:17):
Is this just a one or two day stories. There's
something more going on here.
Speaker 1 (05:20):
So I've got Hasbro, Washington, Irving and Uk and we
will combine all of these things together and we will
go for a test drive.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
Is what we're going to do now.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
Num Burn Right, the arrow is pointing towards something, and
it's something delicious. If you happen to be a gas
bag or a blowheart, boys, this a great story. Just
soak it all up right, all the flavors, all the juices.
What a wonderful story this is because anarchy on the
(05:55):
Cowboy ship. If you were hear the Cowboys coming apart
of the seams in week two, Micah Parsons and the
coaching staff in week three, Ceedee Lamb and Dak Prescott. Wow,
how great is this? How great is now? Jerry Jones,
who is the maestro of the drama O Rama, Jerry
(06:16):
Jones did it again? Jerry because he suffers from fomo
fear of missing out. God forbid Dak Prescott go to
another team and lose in the first round every year,
or Ceedee Lamb go somewhere else and flop in big games. No, no, no, no,
you got to keep the band together, right, So we
kept the band together, this iconic group of abject failures.
The worst you think about. The Cowboy's not gonna win
(06:38):
anything this year. And this will be the record. This
is going to beat the record for the longest run
of incompetence by a quarterback with one team not getting
to a championship game, a conference championship game. Dak Prescott's
gonna have that record. So that you got Dak on
one side, ceedee lamb on it. These guys both got
(07:00):
they both got paid their loggerheads. You've got the rotn
Mike McCarthy, clueless Mike on the sidelines, lame duck head coach,
dazed and confused. All this is going on defense garbage
garbage defense. Right generally speaking, the Cowboys are you know
(07:21):
what they are? They're a Hasbro team. The star players
are there there Hasbro guys. It's a spin off of
My Pony. I know Brian, Brian over there loves my Pony.
It's a spin off of My Pony. It's the show Pony.
It's a show pony because ceedee lamb. When you do
what he did. You're a show pony, that's the way
(07:42):
to describe it, right, You're you're there when you know,
when the things are.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
Going well, you're out in front.
Speaker 1 (07:47):
Like is it true that had the Cowboys won that
game and Ceedee Lamb had a massive statistical game, he
would have been out there doing a pirouet on the
catwalk if Dallas had won, of course, of course, but
they lost, and so you know, kind of rhetorical question.
Speaker 2 (08:01):
They lost, and.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
So he hops, skips and jumps out of there when
the media is there rather than taking questions. And he
can't even pretend, at least Dak Prescott pretends Dak's terrible too.
But Dak could just gives some tired cliches, is what
he does. But ceedeo am he doesn't show up to camp,
he gets paid, and then when the going gets tough,
(08:22):
he high tails it out of there and makes his
teammates have to answer questions because he can't.
Speaker 2 (08:26):
Be bothered with that.
Speaker 1 (08:28):
That's what we call a bad teammate, kids, all right now,
Page two saying in Dallas, more of the rhetoric. You
have veteran edge rusher DeMarcus Lawrence, who told the media
that he believes the Cowboys haven't been playing to the
best of their abilities. Really you think so, But they'll
get back on track.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
He said. Quote, here's the money quote, once we.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
Get out of playing little league football. I thought it
was Paul Border. He said, little league football and get
back to playing pro football. We'll be all right, the
Cowboy defensive players, said de Marcus Lawrence, saying the Cowboys
will be fine once they stopped playing little league football.
Speaker 2 (09:08):
Is it that simple? So I'm gonna shake my head
no on this.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
It is not that simple because you have deep rooted
fundamental issues on both sides of the ball, as we
have documented here with Ceedee Lamb and his issues Dak
Prescott going back and forth there. But you also have
the defense where Baltimore and New Orleans treated them like
(09:33):
Plato and manipulated them in the words that hit are
the words of the late Washington Irving, a classic, the
legend of sleepy Hollow, because that would sum up the
Dallas Cowboys that they're sleepy and they're hollow. They don't
show up on defense in the week two, according to
(09:54):
Michael Parsons, in Week three, they're just hollow, just hollow,
and you you checked, as the kids like to say,
check the receipts.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
There and it's not good. Not good? All right? Now?
Speaker 1 (10:06):
Final point after the loss, Cowboys owner Jerry Jones was
asked why why he did not pursue Derrick Henry in
free agency and his answer was short and sweet. In fact,
he said all of four words. He said, we couldn't
afford Derrick Henry is what he said.
Speaker 2 (10:27):
Close quote.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
Then he gives some weird analogy about like a house,
like he already had a house, but they didn't really
have a house because they added Zeke Elliots, so it's
not like they actually had a house, not a good house.
It was more like a like a shanty townhouse situation anyway,
all right, so Jerry Jones again, Jerry Jones says, the
Cowboys could not afford Derrick Henry. How does that one
(10:50):
hit you? How does that one hit you?
Speaker 4 (10:53):
So?
Speaker 1 (10:54):
Right out of the UK? Terry and England can back
me up on this. I haven't seen a lot of
trash talk from Terry and England. He's a forty nine
er fan. I guess he's keeping quiet.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
I don't blame him. I'd hide too if I was
a forty nine er fan, that's pretty embarrassing. My god, rams.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
Missing two offensive linemen, two wide receivers, a couple of
guys on defense and they beat the forty nine as well. Anyway.
Jerry Jones again, Jerry Jones saying, hey, it's we didn't
have the money and all that stuffuldnt afford him. But
it is out of the UK's called there's a term
they use in the UK's called porky pies, which are lies. Right,
It's a version of the truth, as we like to say,
(11:28):
just not the whole truth and definitely not nothing but
the truth.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
That's the reality here.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
The salary cap, as we have learned, I had the
epiphany years ago, the pifhany years ago. The reality is
that we are salary cap truthers. The salary cap is
something very easily to manipulate. It's a myth. It's a
fiction that is used. It has been weaponized by NFL
(11:53):
teams if they want to get rid of an unwanted
player salary cap, if they don't want to spend money
on a play salary cap. But we know because we've
seen it. The voodoo economics, the voodoo bugaloo economics of
it all that you simply restructure some contracts. You move
roster bonuses around into signing bonuses, You add voidable years,
(12:16):
et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. You renegotiate certain deals,
and all of a sudden, you can sign whoever you
want to your heart's desire. Where there's a will, there's
a way. And Jerry Jones did not have any motivation.
If I remember correctly, Derrick Henry essentially said the Cowboys
never made him an offer. He wanted to play for
(12:37):
the Cowboys, but they didn't want it. Now, it's yet
to be determined how this story ends with Derrick Henry
does have a lot of miles on the odometer, and
typically running backs when they get to a certain point,
their production goes.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
Down, down, down, down, down, does limbo? How low can
you go?
Speaker 1 (12:50):
However, you and I both know that Derek Henry looked
amazing for the most part against the Cowboys on Sunday. Now,
how much of that is the Cowboys defense and how
much of that is Derek Henry, Well, that's to be determined.
But that's where we are right now. It is the
Bane Maler Show. We thank you for hanging out with us.
We know you have options, not good ones, but we're
here for you all night, five nights a week, and
(13:11):
then really eight days a week because I do the
podcast on the weekends, the Fifth Hour podcast, which is
up and running. I even got a TV show now,
it's crazy. Maybe not after this week and more mediocre
picks against the spread. I'm waiting for my big Baffosaco weekend.
This could be it now. I mentioned Dak Prescott and
Cedeu am getting into it. Well, Dak has issued a
(13:33):
bit of a manifesto. I don't know if that's the
right word for It's a small manifesto, but Dak Prescott
has a warning. What is Dak Prescott's warning to cowboy fans?
Speaker 2 (13:46):
Did you see this? Do you hear about this?
Speaker 4 (13:47):
No?
Speaker 1 (13:47):
You didn't, arguod I'll fill you in on that. We'll
get to it, and we will do it next.

Speaker 1 (14:44):
Justin and Cincinnati says, is the David Bell Monologue Hour three? No,
I think that's our chances that Dick and Dayton realize
the Reds got rid of David Bell or manager. Probably
not really high, probably not really high A. So I
did want to say before I forget here. This guy
lived a long life. He was actually an influence on me.
(15:07):
Al McCoy, the voice of the Phoenix Suns for years.
He died over the weekend too his nineties. Had been
the voice of the Suns for like fifty years, and
I met him several times over the years and tell
some of these stories on the podcast. But he was

There forever masshole.
Speaker 1 (15:33):

Cowboy fan, says, you're right about the Cowboys. Bro, it's

At least he's got the show on. I can hear.
I had the clown show there in the background. Been

Speaker 1 (17:17):
Right now sounds like he's not breathing at all.
Speaker 2 (17:21):
Yeah, there he is right there. Hi James, Yeah, yeah,

Speaker 1 (17:34):

I know whoa James. You're a stallion. Calm down, James, Please, whoa.
Speaker 2 (18:07):

Speaker 4 (18:09):
This is my love hands on my.
Speaker 2 (18:14):
Sleep talk.
Speaker 1 (18:21):
Did he say something about a fish stick? I thought
he said something about love or something. It's like very bizarre. Yeah,
I don't know. All right, Well, thank you. I'm glad
we took that call. Good old James, he never disappoints. Well,
(18:41):
Dak Prescott, he has a warning for you, cowboy fan. Yeah,
you talking to you, Benito, the long suffern cowboy fan
and all the others. Dak Prescott as he was sashating
his way off the field following yet another gutless effort
by the Dallas Cowboys, something that Dak has become accustomed
two over the years. Well, he was wandering through the
(19:04):
bottles of Jerry's world, and he has said but now,
but before we get to the statement, I don't want
to hear any of these idiots say, well, the Cowboys
almost came back, they almost won the that was garbage time.
It was twenty eighth to six going to the fourth quarter.
Twenty eight to six going to the fourth quarter. Game
was over over, over over, and so congratulations Dak. Has
(19:28):
anyone had better numbers in the fourth quarter of blowout
games than Dak Prescott.
Speaker 2 (19:34):
He did it again.
Speaker 1 (19:35):
Dak Prescott had one hundred and eighty seven yards passing
in two touchdowns in the fourth quarter alloon in the
fourth quarter. He had those that the stats. I'm not
making that up. You can double check. One hundred and
eighty seven yards and two touchdowns in the fourth quarter
for Dak Prescott, very similar to what he did against
the Green Bay Packers in that playoff game where he
(19:57):
had the final numbers didn't look quite as bad because
he had a out of Garber's temps says, anyway, get
to the point, please, all right, here's the point. So
Dak Prescott had a five word warning as he was
walking off the field the Ravens dominating the Cowboys, and
what did he say? Dak Prescott said, quote jump off
(20:19):
if you want quotes. Quote jump off if you want
what exactly you jumping off? The vomit comment? Is that
where you're jumping off? Like, hey, Dak, spoiler alert, spoiler alert,
You guys blow that's the reality, Dak.
Speaker 2 (20:39):
Come on, it's ridiculous, jump it all.
Speaker 1 (20:43):
What do you what are you afraid of. If you're
a Cowboy fan, you clearly are not to jump off type, right.
I mean, the Cowboys have sucked for a generation in
terms of playoff performance. Think about the teams that have
had a couple of good years now and again that
have won Super Bowls and the Dallas Cowboys, who for
the most part have had decent regular season teams and
(21:06):
going back a generation over, actually a generation's giving them
credit because the generation is twenty five years.
Speaker 2 (21:14):
It's longer than that.
Speaker 1 (21:16):
Now it's a generation plus where the Dallas Cowboys have
been blah and Dak Prescott's say, oh yeah.
Speaker 2 (21:23):
This, I'm warning, jump off, jump off if you want.
Speaker 1 (21:30):
Yeah, mass max mass eccidents of Cowboy fans guess.
Speaker 2 (21:37):
Me, I'm out, I'm done, I'm out of here. Co
later and uh yeah.
Speaker 1 (21:43):
But here's the odd thing, and this is an unpopular opinion,
it's a developing take, but for the Cowboys to truly
ever get good again, there has to be a fan revolt.
You canna say the fans don't matter, but all I
know is that as a Dodger fan, the Dodgers were
(22:04):
very mediocre. They had this guy named Frank McCourt. This
parking weasel who owned the team and was a tightwad
and didn't know what he was doing, and so the
people stopped showing up. The Dodgers have always either led
baseball or been number two or number three in a
tenants and usually they leave baseball in at ten. Used
to be the Cardinals, but the Dodgers for the most
part of lead baseball in attens. And there was about
(22:25):
a four year period where the fans stopped showing up,
they stopped watching the games on TV, and Bud Selick
was the Commissioner of Baseball and freaked out. And the
people at Baseball like, wait a minute, this is our
cash cow. We're killing our cash cow. What is going on?
And so they forced this guy, Frank McCourt to sell
the team. And then after that the Dodgers have been
(22:50):
in the playoffs every year. They had this one World Series,
and they'll win another one. Maybe not this year, but
they'll win another one. Glory times for the Dodgers every year.
This is what I'm trying to get Angels fans to do,
but the Angels aren't. I'm telling you it works, but yeah,
but they're not as important to baseball as the Dodgers.
That is true, but you had the ultimate You had
(23:10):
the ultimate f you from your owner. He said, I'm
gonna sell the team. Sich, aren't Marina the only I'm
gonna sell the team? Just kidding suckers. Were they against
for worst team of the year or from all time?
Speaker 2 (23:23):
Right?
Speaker 1 (23:24):
Well, the the White Sox are far and away. The
worst team is the Chicago White Sox, but the Angels
are and then even the second one, like the Marlins
are the second worst, but they're at the bottom. They're boring,
just a bad franchise. Yeah, boring, boring boy.
Speaker 2 (23:39):
Anyway, it is the Ben Malord Show.
Speaker 1 (23:42):
As we are continuing on chopping down these overnight hours,
it will take some more of these amazing phone calls.
Oh my god, sleeping WNBA, talk my god. This is

A lot of chop shops. Well, it used to be.
They when the Mets played at Chase Stadium, there was
all chop shops around here.

you're motivating, he plays at ballpark where it's easy to
hit home runs, he obviously can steal. He's as fast
as anybody in baseball. So yeah, that's your motivation, of course,
if your desire. We've seen it now. Well, this is
