Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello and welcome. It's our number four, and here a
hour four on this Thursday, the third day of October,
a day where later on we'll be recording Benny Versus
the Penny, episode number five for the regular season episode
number five. They'll be recorded later today, they'll start airing tomorrow.

(00:22):
But here in hour number four, how much stalk do
you put in the Jets being the favorite for DeVante
Adams of the Raiders. Also, Cowboys owner Jerry Jones showed
up to the team's Wednesday practice in a helicopter and
landed it on the field. What do you make of that?
And the Patriots and they're considering benching Remandre Stevenson. We'll

(00:45):
talk about that. Also, all the other storylines around the NFL.
You don't know what's gonna pop up here. It is
our number four. Have a wonderful, wonderful day. The waiting
game continues for one unhappy NFL star. I know you're

(01:08):
very concerned about that. Welcome, in the beginning of another
hour of the Benmahlor Show. We are in the air everywhere.

Speaker 2 (01:23):
Think of us as sleeping over as we go with
the flow coast to coast, border, the border and beyond
on the bast in here poppingly powerful microphones of FSR
step up, young and old, eminating live from the fresh aisle,
as our takes are always fresh, never frozen. We're broadcasting

(01:46):
live from the tyrack dot com studios. Tyrect dot com
will help you get there and unmatched selection, fast, free shipping,
free road hazard protection and over ten thousand recommended in stars.
Tyrect dot com tire buying.

Speaker 1 (02:00):
Should be I know ed Fremmaine approves that number ten thousand.
So our lead this hour is from Sin's City. We'll
get back to the baseball later. We're down to one
game left in the wild card round. More on that
to come. We'll tell you where the gambling money is
overnight and whatnot. Mets and Brewers the last game left,
but our lead from Sin City, as mentioned er go

(02:25):
the epicenter of I'm not happy, I ain't playing of this.
I get traded, bro. Consider this our obligatory Mallard monologue
on the job transfer request by one DeVante Adams. He
can be yours if you give the Raiders what they want.

(02:45):
So if you have not been paying attention, probably not.
Why would you? A one team has already established themselves
as head and shoulders above the other teams. According to
our friends over DraftKings Sportsbook, the odds, how about Davonte
Adams going to the j e ts Suck, Suck, suck.

(03:07):
The odds makers have the Jets as a favorite the
leader in the clubhouse to land DeVante Adams ahead of
the November fifth trade deadline. The Saints also probably mentioned
a number of other high profile teams odds posted for them,
but the Jets are at the very top. So this
is what I want to talk to you about, the question,
how much stalk are you going to invest into the

(03:30):
Jets being the favorite of DeVante Adams and a trade
with the Raiders. So I have trousers, character, and kitchen sponge,
and we will combine all of these things together and
we are going to make you a brand new jacuzzi,
is what we're going to do. So to kick off here,

(03:51):
we talked about the gambling numbers quite a bit on
this show. We like to gamble. I do a TV
show we'll be taking that later today about gambling and
betting on the NFL not So I do like it,
and so we value the gambling market. That said, while
they do have skin in the game. The odds are
always manipulated based on liability. So that's the thing. The

(04:16):
final market is set by the public. The opening numbers
are set by the house. They're anticipating can we get
money on each of these teams, and so we don't
have that much liability, and so it's a science of
manipulating the numbers to avoid liability and in the media
reports and getting people joned up and whatnot. Aaron Rodgers

(04:38):
if it is true, if it is true that Aaron
Rodgers is omnipresent with the Jets, if he's calling the
shots and he's the GM by proxy, then it makes
sense that the Jets would be the team. Adams loves Rogers.
There's a bromance there. He would immediately in theory partner

(04:59):
with Garrett Wilson and they would have a dynamic duo,
at least in theory. Whether that's reality is another story.
Rogers's body is starting to fall apart. It's only week
number five now. That said, it is my belief and
I got into an argument with a friend of mine
about this, that the Raiders are the ones who ultimately
wear the trousers in this little relationship, meaning that Davonte

(05:22):
can say, hey, I want to play only for the
Jets or I only want to play for the Saints,
and he can try to crack the whip if you will.
But Vegas and Antonio Pierce are in the catbird seat
unless DeVante is willing to go a lunatic and leave
money on the table. If you're the Raiders. I'll mention

(05:44):
this in a previous episode of the show, but you
open this thing up. There are so many teams out
there that need that one last receiver in theory to
push them over the very top of the mountain. And
the Bills, the Ravens, the Steelers, we mentioned Kansas City
and the Chargers, but expecting this story to fester. I

(06:05):
would also like to point out that one of our
big Raider fans in the Bay Area, Matt the Warrior
Raider Tom Brady roast fan, He's like, I don't want
to I'm not here for the drama. I'll just I'm
ready to watch Antonio Pierce coach, and I want to
I want to watch Devontae Adams play on Sunday in Denver.
Spoiler alert, Spiderlert, Yeah, spoiler alert. Turns out, if you

(06:28):
think Devonte Adams is playing against the Broncos on Sunday.
You are a loser. He's gonna miss that game. Oh
my aching hemmy, oh my hammy. It went whammy. Now
other people seem to believe that this was a business
decision by Devontae Adams and he's choosing not to play.

(06:48):
He could play if he was wearing a Jets uniform
or some uniform he wanted to play for, but he's
with the Raiders and said, I'm gonna sit this one out,
all right. Furthermore, we head now deep in the heart
of Texas to Dallas. Sitting at two and two, a
little bit of extra rest, playing rather blah football. Cowboys
owner Jerry Jones said, you know what I need. I

(07:09):
need a dopamine hit. And how am I going to
get a dopamine hit? Here's what I'm gonna do. Jerry
Jones showed up to Wednesday's practice as the Cowboys play
an island game the Island Life. Another island game against
Pennsburg Steelers will be the highest rated TV NFL broadcast
this weekend. Anyway, Jerry Jones shows up to Wednesday's practice.

(07:30):
Did you see how he showed up? Was it a chariot. No.
Was it a Indy five hundred stock car. No, it
was not a NASCAR car. No. Was it a horse
and buggy? No. Jerry Jones showed up in style to
Wednesday's Cowboy practice on a helicopter. While the team was

(07:51):
on the field working out. Jerry Jones landed his helicopter
on the field. Now, it was just off to the
side of the field, but it was on the field.
Everyone's there documenting everything. So what do you make of
Jerry Jones and his grand entrance. So my first thought is,
it's good to be the king. It's good to be
the king. And Jerry continues to be a character of himself, cartoonish.

(08:16):
God bless him. We're all gonna miss Jerry Jones when
he's gone. Now, there was a character in baseball that
used to move the needle when I first got into
radio named George Steinbrenner. He's been dead for a while. Boy,
his kids suck, right, They're just boring, And I feel
like the same thing's gonna happen to the cowboy. Stephen
Jones does not have that showman, over the top carnival

(08:39):
approach like Jerry does. Nobody does but he's combined Richie
Rich and Daddy Warbucks and you got Micah Parsons out.
Brandon Cooks has heard DeMarcus Lawrence is out for the Cowboys.
Things are not looking good, and so Jerry Jones is
pleading for attention, said, don't forget about us. We're the Cowboys.

(09:00):
Don't forget about us. Right, it's a franchise charter. What
is the franchise charter. I'll tell you what. The franchise
charter is the franchise charter. And Jerry Jones does not
care what is said. Just keep talking about the Cowboys.
That's all that matters, right, even if it's a dopey
helicopter landing, that's what it's all about. Wouldn't it be
nice to have a helicopter, assuming there's no fog, and

(09:22):
just take the helicopter around. Wouldn't that be great? All right? Now?
Last thing to Houston we Go and Buffalo the st
Fawn Digs matchup of the Ages, the Fawn Digs and
the Texas taking on his old team now. Buffalo looking
to bounce back this week after being eviscerated by Derek
Henry and the Ravens in that profile high Profile Island

(09:46):
game on Sunday night, and now they go against their
old buddy. So Josh Allen was saying nothing but niceties
about his former teammates, singing the praise of his old buddy,
saying that he has a lot of love first the
Fawn Diggs and then CJ. Stroud, the current quarterback who
clearly likes Nico Collins more than the aforementioned Stefon Diggs.

(10:08):
But he was like, well, you know, Stefan got a
bad rap. He got a bad rap. So how do
you evaluate all of this? The words we parse the
words of the quarterbacks, all right, So I'll I'll go
first on this one. So Josh Allen is just desperate
to be liked by everybody. He just don't lie to us.

(10:28):
We know he didn't like Stefan Diggs as a play.
Maybe you like them to hang out and go to
the bar in Buffalo and eat chicken wings, But in
terms of actually working with the guy, you were done.
You didn't want the drama orama anymore. Now, how do
I know that you are the franchise quarterback of the
Buffalo Bills. What that means is if you had gone
to the front off and said don't ball it. Do

(10:49):
not trade this guy. I date this guy. He's my
safety bugget. He'd still be there. Okay, So it's all
just empty gibberish. It's empty rhetoric. He didn't advocate for
Stefan Diggs. Otherwise Stefan DAGs would.

Speaker 3 (11:04):
Have been there.

Speaker 1 (11:05):
And by the way, it's the right decision. I'm not
ripping Josh Allen. That's the right decision. The bills are.
But even though they got smoked by the poets, it's
still the right decision. Had he spoken up, Diggs would
have been with the Bills. And so you can have
a lot of love for people. So yeah, you like
people as you know, not as co workers, but as people.
You're like, oh that's a good person. I don't want

(11:26):
to work with that person. They don't have good work
ethic and they're whatever. And so as far as the
other part of it, Digs is fifteen hundred miles away
from Buffalo in Houston. So as for CJ. Stroud, and
he says Stefan Diggs got a bad rap. But here's
the problem. He made his own bed of nails, like
Stefan Diggs, like so many of his predecessors, as the

(11:50):
wide receivers. They love the attention and he's all about
that action boss. He is the quintessential classic Devo wide
rest Stefon digs and if things aren't just right, then
he's going to blow a gasket. It's the way it is,
and he's an acquired taste, and it's kind of like

(12:11):
I would compare Stefon digs to a kitchen sponge. A
kitchen sponge is very useful when you're doing I'm the
dishwasher at the house and I wash the dishes and
you need to have that sponge. But every so often,
maybe every month or every other month, you got to
replace the sponge. It gets dirty. I don't care how
many times you wash it, you put in a dishwasher,
it gets dirty. So you got to replace the kitchen

(12:32):
sponge and Stefon digs, whether it's the vikings, the bills,
and eventually it'll be the Texans. He's like a kitchen sponge.
He needs to be replaced after a certain amount of
time and get a new sponge in there and send
your old sponge somewhere else to be recycled. It is
the Ben Maler Show. If you'd like to comment on that,
We are more than welcome. You can join us here.
Speakeasy rules are in effect. Also, later on this hour,

(12:53):
Edie will have put in the world. We'll have that
for you coming up. Also, sometimes moms don't make the
best decisions. We'll get to that as well. We tease
that earlier. And What's in the Box? There's a box here,
What's in the box? We'll play What's in the Box.
It's a fun game. Lorraine is excited. Although she did

(13:14):
not allow us to play What's in the box. And
she got a box, but she did not allow us
to play What's in the Box.

Speaker 4 (13:19):
Me and Coop played it.

Speaker 1 (13:20):
Did not do it, did not do it on the air.
You wasted an opportunity to play What's in the Box.
We didn't get to play What's in the Box. I
wanted to play What's in the Box. We didn't get
to play What's in the next time, all right, anyway,
we will get to puck World. We'll get to all
that with Eddie and What's in the Box and all that.
But we'll do it. We'll do it next.

Speaker 1 (14:11):
We'll play a game. What's in the box. We'll get
to that. Coming up. Let's say hello to Ed in Arlington.
He's one of my baseball guys. Hello Ed in Arlington.

Speaker 6 (14:21):
Hello Ben.

Speaker 7 (14:22):
Well, that didn't take too long in the wild card
playoffs there for the astutes to get ahead.

Speaker 6 (14:28):
Coming to him.

Speaker 1 (14:29):
Now, you gotta sing, you gotta sing the song No
Na goodbye, see a light of losers, your cheaters haha,
love it.

Speaker 7 (14:39):
Yeah, that's that's too good.

Speaker 1 (14:42):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (14:42):
But uh, the Rangers.

Speaker 6 (14:45):
I have to say the Rangers are still alive in
the World Series of the Mind because the way you
play that is you look at how your team. In
this case, the Rangers did in the regular season against
the teams remaining in the playoffs and in the American League.
For now, the Rangers took four to seven from the Tigers,

(15:10):
and they took five to two from the Royals.

Speaker 1 (15:13):
So well, I figure out whatever whatever allows you to sleep,
whenever you sleep, whatever whatever works for you on that. Now,
we got a game tonight ed in the National League,
the New York Metropolitans. They start schedule to start left
hander Jose Guintana, and then the Brewers are starting a

(15:34):
rookie in an elimination game, Tobias Myers, and yeah, and
their favor the Brewers are favored. And I'm looking at
the gambling numbers that I have overnight in the Brewers
a MIAs one to twenty five favorite. The sharps are
betting on the brew Crew. They think the Mets are
going to implode in games.

Speaker 7 (15:54):
That's a modest tilt towards the Brewers.

Speaker 1 (15:58):
So it is a modest in the law. But the
money is almost eighty percent of the sharp money is
on the Brewers, so they're loading up here. So whatever
that means.

Speaker 9 (16:09):
Yeah, yeah, So I think in that one, the Rangers.
I believe the Rangers are the Mets playing this year.
I'm not sure how how they did, so I'll have
to look that up.

Speaker 1 (16:20):
But I'm upset. The Rangers need to improve here ed
because we need to keep these cheating a holes out
of the playoffs altogether. And I looked at the I
look around the nationally West. The Mariners are just committed
to be mediocre. The Angels aren't even trying. The athletics.
They're not trying, so it's by default the a holes
have an advantage every year. We need the Rangers. They're

(16:42):
the hope if they actually get good again to keep
Houston out of the playoffs.

Speaker 7 (16:47):
Well, I got it along the lines of making that happen,
I got a deal for you.

Speaker 6 (16:54):
I don't think the Rangers season next year is going
to be a whole lot different from this year if
they don't find a replacement for their Josh Hamilton Adrian
Beltray glory days. Incidentally, I noticed you were off from
your radio duties while Adrian Beltray was being conducted into

(17:15):
the Hall of Fame this year.

Speaker 7 (17:17):
I figured you has.

Speaker 6 (17:18):
Just snuck out of town to go get our front
row seat to watch that.

Speaker 1 (17:22):
But you must have been sleeping. I thought it was here.
We talked about it a little bit on the on
the air. I had no problem. He was with the
Dodgers and he sucked with the Dodgers until his last year,
got paid a lot of money from the Mariners. He
sucked with the Mariners, went to the Red Sox, and
I remember him sucking in Boston and then he found

(17:43):
himself later on, so good for him.

Speaker 6 (17:45):
Yeah, he went in with the Rangers cap on, so that.

Speaker 1 (17:48):
Was well, that's fine. I mean, yeah, that's good.

Speaker 6 (17:50):
But anyway, along the lines of making the Rangers more
challenging to the Astros next year, I think the Rangers
need to back up that brings truck to the Toronto
blue Jays and do what it takes to get Leddy
Junior away from the blue Jays.

Speaker 1 (18:09):
Well, I listened, that's your big name. People know who
he is. I'm all for that. And blue Jays mediocre.
They're gonna make some changes there in Toronto, I'm all for.
I gotta leave it there, ed, but great to hear you.
And it's your month October baseball. Let's go to legally
blind Christopher who's in Charlotte, North Carolina. Or adjacent. Hello,

(18:30):
legally blind Christopher.

Speaker 8 (18:33):
Well, at least.

Speaker 7 (18:33):
Somebody allows me to get onto the internet and talk again.

Speaker 6 (18:37):
Elton must hate blind people. I can't get on to
Twitter and talk to you for the last five years,
so I guess I.

Speaker 8 (18:49):
We're trying to talk about exces early in the morning.

Speaker 1 (18:51):
But anyhow, man, yes, I see that's a blind that's
a blind joke. What he did right, there was a
blind joke. That's blind humor.

Speaker 7 (18:58):
You know, there we go. My best.

Speaker 6 (19:00):
It's five thirty in the morning.

Speaker 7 (19:01):
I gotta try and stay away now listen.

Speaker 9 (19:03):
Then I got a question for you.

Speaker 6 (19:06):
What does cheating Michigan and champions all haven't common?

Speaker 1 (19:12):
What would that be? Hey, you're work for Michigan cheated,
they got a national championship.

Speaker 7 (19:19):
We've got a cheating baseball.

Speaker 6 (19:20):
Coach and the Tigers. We're gonna win a championship. Now
if I can convince Dan Campbell to cheat, well ran
an NFL title.

Speaker 8 (19:28):
What do you think?

Speaker 1 (19:29):
Well, who's a We gotta hire Belichick? Right, he's known
for the like the cheater.

Speaker 10 (19:33):
All that's not gonna work why not?

Speaker 8 (19:37):
Why not?

Speaker 1 (19:38):
But you said you want to you have to hire
a cheater to win, and Belichick is known, and you
know I'm pushing the envelope, gamesmanship and all that.

Speaker 8 (19:47):
It's just not gonna work. Man.

Speaker 10 (19:48):
I just I can't have it.

Speaker 8 (19:49):
I gotta transform Dan Campbell.

Speaker 1 (19:51):
Into a chat. This call is proof yet again. You
can take the Michigan the boy from Michigan out of Michigan,
but you can't take the Michigan out of boy from Michigan.
You're you're loyal to your Michigan michiganers.

Speaker 8 (20:04):
Yeah when you still remember me?

Speaker 4 (20:06):
Man, I can't believe you do.

Speaker 1 (20:07):
But hey, all right, love you big hugs? All right there,
he goes, amazing, How lucky are we that he called
our show of all the shows to call? Ken is
in Minneapolis, where the NFL top quarterback right now, Sam

(20:27):
Donald plays football?

Speaker 5 (20:28):
What?

Speaker 1 (20:29):
Hello? Ken? Welcome?

Speaker 9 (20:31):
Hey?

Speaker 8 (20:31):
How are you doing?

Speaker 1 (20:32):
If I was any better, I'd be a twin, But
not a Minnesota twin because they're not in the playoffs.

Speaker 8 (20:38):
Oh, don't get on them. It's sorry to be a twin, San.
I don't even want to talk to them. But what
do you think about Sam Donald? Here?

Speaker 1 (20:47):
So far, Oh, so far, so good. I do I
believe that's going to continue, know, but enjoy it while
it lasts. At some point, I believe you return. There's
a Russian to the mean and uh, yeah, when that happens, Uh,
who knows? But I don't. I don't trust him. But yeah,
he's played well, he's done a good job.

Speaker 8 (21:09):
If he continues on the way he's going and he
has uh, you know, the one year contract ten million
or whatever, is he going to turn into the next
Baker Mayfield and just get paid at the end of
the year. I mean with JJ, you know, with the tar.

Speaker 1 (21:24):
Well, here's the do the vikings A. Do they make
the playoffs? They're not guaranteed even at four and oh
to make the playoffs, But they make the playoffs. Do
they win a playoff game? There's a lot of variables
to this, but if they make the playoffs and they
win a playoff game, they have to bring Sam Darnold back, right,
even even with recinativism and and you know, decline and

(21:46):
relapse or all averting the bad habits, they have to
bring him back if they win a playoff game.

Speaker 7 (21:50):
So yeah, and then what do you offer him?

Speaker 8 (21:53):
Three years, you know, sixty million or and then does
he would he.

Speaker 1 (21:58):
Want to stay there even maybe because but they have
to trade JJ McCarthy. Would they trade him after not
playing a single regular season game?

Speaker 8 (22:06):
And there's been boss about it around here.

Speaker 10 (22:09):
But yeah, I don't know what you get for him,
you know.

Speaker 1 (22:12):
Bag of potato chips and some like a juicy lucy
to be named later you can throw that actually, gotcha?

Speaker 8 (22:20):
Yeah, I don't know. We beat cham Francisco Green Bay
And then another thing I wanted to touch on too. Did
you watch the Packers Vikings game?

Speaker 1 (22:28):
I did a lot of garbage time offense from the
Green Bay Packers there in the fourth quarter to sneak
back into it kind of.

Speaker 10 (22:36):
Why did they go for two when it was what
twenty to twenty eight and they went for two to
make it twenty two to twenty eight, and then they
Vikings scored the field goal and then it was thirty
one two.

Speaker 1 (22:48):
And then got Because there are people running our sports
that are idiots, they are highly educated moron. So the
Seattle Seahawks did the same thing. They were down by two,
there were down by set what was it? They scored
a touchdown against the Lions they would have been down
by seven. They went for two and they didn't make it,
so they instaid they were down by eight, so then

(23:10):
they had to go for two a game, but it
didn't really matter because the Lions kept scoring. It's ridiculous,
and no matter how many people scream it's ridiculous and
how stupid it is, these people have been brainwashed. No
matter how many times it backfires and the unwonted repercussions
of their nerd ball, they continue to continue to.

Speaker 5 (23:30):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Meller
Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific.

Speaker 3 (23:36):
Some notes from the NFL. Couple of players done for
the year, Dolphins defensive and Jalen Phillips with a knee injury,
and Patriots center David Andrews he's going to need shoulder surgery.
And a couple of quarterback notes. Aaron Rodgers.

Speaker 1 (23:47):
So the Patriots, who did not have an offensive line,
lost one of the offensive linemen that we'd heard of.

Speaker 3 (23:52):
That's accurate. Yeah, Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers eliminated practice with
a knee issue. Jets are playing the Vikings in London.
And Colts quarterback Tony Richardson also limited to practice with
hip issues culture play playing the Jaguars.

Speaker 1 (24:05):
Jaguars up bye week for the Charges this week. So
what do you do on a bye weekend? You guys
go on vacation. It's a week off there, Like, what's.

Speaker 3 (24:13):
We're gonna park it on the couch and watch football.
Oh That's what I'll be doing.

Speaker 1 (24:17):
WHOA, yeah, all right, thank you. It is the Ben
Mather Show. And sometimes mama does not know best turns out.
An NFL player you've heard of is the son of
a pirate. Do you see this story? This is quite
the story. Rashie Rice speed racer. His mother has been

(24:39):
accused of being a porch pirate. Well is it a
porch pirate? If it's apartment building? What are they? Is
it the same concept? Uh TMC has the video. You
want to check it out. Rashie Rice's mother accused of
taking a package containing some records.

Speaker 4 (24:57):
Or door caper what was it? Corridor caper or caper?

Speaker 1 (25:01):
Maybe that's it? Yeah, right from her neighbor's porch. This
is just hours after her son was injured in that
game against the Chargers. There's ring camera footage of what
this resident in Texas claimed shows the mother of Rashie
Rice walking by the doorway, looking right into the camera

(25:24):
before walking down the hall and then grabbing said package. Now,
a lot of good police work went into this. She
was wearing a number four Chiefs jersey that said Mama
Rice on it. Wow. Oh man, at least she couldn't

(25:45):
have changed out of that. I mean, what are you doing?

Speaker 4 (25:49):
This has got to be like one of those things
that like.

Speaker 1 (25:52):
She smiled and waved at the camera like his teammates like,
can't give him crap for this, right, it's like an
off limits thing because that's embarrassing.

Speaker 4 (26:02):
Mama.

Speaker 1 (26:03):
No, Mama Rice, right there, number four in your program,
but number one is stealing your packages right out of
you said.

Speaker 3 (26:09):
She smiled into the camera.

Speaker 1 (26:11):
Well, I'm looking at a photo of her smiling here.
I guess i's some Instagram, But we did your mother.
She was looking at the but you know she was
looking If you see the videos on TMC, you can
see the video she's like looking right at the camera,
like she knows there's a camera there. If you know
there's a camp, Like what are you doing? You know
you're you're on camera? There's no I don't get it.

Speaker 3 (26:30):
But you have one of those ring cameras on your phone.

Speaker 1 (26:33):
I don't, do you you have?

Speaker 9 (26:34):
No?

Speaker 3 (26:35):
Seems like kind of a good idea.

Speaker 1 (26:36):
Though, maybe I'll get one. Anybody have a ring camera?

Speaker 4 (26:40):
No, I've wanted one.

Speaker 3 (26:42):
Why do you hate him, Lorena do?

Speaker 4 (26:45):
Yeah? They're just annoying. So what if I'm trying to
sneak someone in my house?

Speaker 1 (26:50):
Ah, you sneak people in the house living with your
mother or something?

Speaker 4 (26:56):
Saying if I live with my cousin and if and
if I did want to people, No, but it would
notify her that I have people cutting.

Speaker 1 (27:04):
What do you care? You're a grown ass woman exactly.
That's why I care. Okay, greatest, you should get this
right away, Eddie, greatest sports figure captured on a ring camera,
Bill Belichick leaving the booty call, which turned out to
be his new girlfriend in Rhode Was it Rhode Island
or something like that or Nantucket? He was leaving his

(27:25):
shirt off, memory was shipped outside. It was great that guy,
and somebody leaked that on the anyway, all right, it
is any Ben Malor show, and hey there's imaging, so
Eddie's all excited.

Speaker 5 (27:37):
He was fuck this, fuck all of it. It's pucked
the world with Eddy Garcia.

Speaker 3 (27:47):
We are one day away from the start of the
NHL season. Oh my god, the first game of the year.
It's one of those overseas games that we've seen leagues
do lately. In Prague in the check Repubble on October
the fourth, New Jersey Devils against the Buffalo Sabers. It's Friday,
two pm Eastern.

Speaker 1 (28:05):
Time here, and that would be tomorrow.

Speaker 3 (28:07):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (28:07):
Yeah, I just looked at my phone. Tomorrow.

Speaker 3 (28:09):
Yeah, what I just said, one day away. The first
North American regular season games will be next week.

Speaker 1 (28:15):
On October the eighth. October eighth, if plain that night,
will you be out at the arena in skid Roaddown.

Speaker 3 (28:23):
They're opening up on a seven game road trip.

Speaker 1 (28:25):
Really, who else a long road trip? I think going
back to East it's better to get.

Speaker 3 (28:29):
There they are, they started off in Buffalo.

Speaker 1 (28:31):
No, it's good to get the East Coast road games
out before the weather tern is nasty. That's good, that's fair.

Speaker 3 (28:36):
The NHL and NHL Players Association expected to begin talks
on a new collective bargaining agreement early in twenty twenty five.
Commissioner Gary Bedman says the NHL salary cap for next
season expected to be around ninety two point five million.
That's up four point five million from the eighty eight
million this season. Contracts stand up Boss.

Speaker 1 (28:53):
Yeah story in Boston.

Speaker 3 (28:54):
Yeah pulled out Jeremy Swayman, reaching a new level of
contentious they went public. Bruins president Cam Neely said it
a press conference. I know I have sixty four million
reasons why I'd be.

Speaker 1 (29:06):
Playing right now talking about I'll take I'll take.

Speaker 3 (29:09):
Swamon's agent to Lewis Grosse took to social media say
that that sixty four million was never offered Bruins and
reportedly offered him a sixty two point four million while
he's looking for sixty eight million. So they're closed. You
think they'll get it done, but they already said the
Bruins have said. Jonas Corposolo is they are going to
starting goalie for the beginning of the season, so it's

(29:29):
going to extend into the regular season. He will not
be ready to go. Columbus Blue Jackets, of course, lost
star player Johnny gudrou in the offseason tragic accident, killed
by a drunk driver while he was biking with his brother.
One of the financial realities is now that the Blue Jackets,
his old team doesn't have that nine point seventy five
million cap hit because of Drew, so they're actually under

(29:49):
the sixty five million dollar salary cap floor. So they
he had players to reach the four all they do
and because of that, the NHL and the NHLPA told
the team they did not have to comply reaching the
salur cap floor once the season starts, which all the
other teams have to do. So they're giving him a
rare special exemption and appropriate for sure. La King's veteran defencement,

(30:12):
Drew Dowdy gonna be out ten to fourteen weeks after
a ankle surgery for the ankle went awkwardly into the
boards in a preseason game against Vegas. Montreal Canadians Ward
Patrick Lione escaped a serious knee injury ne on knee
collision in a game against the may Poleice, but he's
still going to be out two to three months. His
teammate David Ryan Bucker gonna miss five to six months

(30:33):
after knee searchery.

Speaker 1 (30:34):
Do you have your standard bet? With Andy the comic
book guy and the Sabers making.

Speaker 3 (30:38):
The playoffs, he still needs to pay off his bet
from last year. He has failed to do that yet.

Speaker 1 (30:41):
Thirteen straight seasons, right, they haven't made the playoffs something,
it's fourteen and fourteen, so many San.

Speaker 3 (30:47):
Jose Sharks forward and number one overall pick Maclin Celebrini
picked up a scare in a preseason game, went down
crashing the boards, but they're saying he escaped any serious
injury day to day lower body injury, so he's fine.
Speaking of Andy the comic book guy, I'm sure he
cares about this. Buffalo Savers named Rasmus Doleen as their
new captain for this coming season. And since it's the

(31:08):
final puck the World report before the step of the season,
it's time for my NHL predictions.

Speaker 1 (31:14):
Njum prediction. Coop's excited.

Speaker 3 (31:22):
Doing her dance moves a lot.

Speaker 1 (31:25):
Oh my god, are we lucky to be alive?

Speaker 3 (31:28):
Mark it down and then forget if I'm wrong. Your
Stanley Cup finals will feature Toronto. No, no, god, no,
the Dallas Stars.

Speaker 1 (31:36):
Come on, and you don't suck up those.

Speaker 3 (31:38):
Against the New York Rangers.

Speaker 1 (31:41):
Not a range. We don't need the Rangers in there.

Speaker 3 (31:43):
Come on, Stanley Cup winners, the Dallas Stars.

Speaker 1 (31:46):
I'm going Vancouver Canucks versus the Toronto Maple Leafs. That's
what I'm going with right there, bool done.

Speaker 3 (31:51):
Huh well, we would would be assured of having a
Canadian Cup winner for the first time.

Speaker 1 (31:54):
That's the only way we need two Canadians Edmonton or whoever.
I don't get two Canadian teams.

Speaker 4 (31:59):
I think it's gonna be the YETI the YETI.

Speaker 3 (32:02):
Yes, goy, get lorrain of that jersey once it officially
comes out, and that's your puck the World Report.

Good morning. It was it a tag in the buck.

Speaker 1 (36:55):
I think that's all we have time for. Sorry number one,
figure out which of these stories isn't completely true. Former
President Donald Trump making a recent appearance at a rally
in Ohio, and he brought up the passing of Pete Rose.
Trump told the crowd, when he is elected back into
the White House, he will do everything in his power
to make sure that Pete Rose gets into the Hall

(37:17):
of Fame. Storry number two, Gordon Hayward, remember him? He
asked his retirement from the NBA, He's already well into
his next chapter of his career. Hayward has a film
production company called Whiskey Creek Productions, which just released its
first movie, ironically called Notice to Quit and Story number three.
Lamar Odom about to turn forty five according to tmz

(37:39):
Otum recently got a salmon. According to Cooper, salmon's sperm
treatment done to his face. Yeah. The procedure consists of
micro needling the skin with the salmon product. There costs
around thirty two hundred dollars. So one of those, unless
we made that up, one of these stories is not true.

(37:59):
Set great fiction from fact, Leslie one, two or three,
Leslie Brighton's and Free number three. Yes, you would never
do that, right, let you you don't need to do that.

Speaker 6 (38:58):
Number three?

Speaker 1 (38:59):
Number three, the lamar odom salmon sperm DNA story. Well,
believe it or not, he did hang out with the Kardashians,
so that is actually true. The fake story the Donald
Trumps or Trump did not say if elected president, he
will get Pete Rose into the Hall of Fame. So
