It's our Nu Bird two, Our two ready to go.
We go to Viva Las Vegas, where Raiders owner Mark
Davis has denied that Max Crosby is on the trading block.
How much stalk do you put into the Raiders owner's
statement about Max Crosby, also saying with the silver and black,

(00:25):
Antonio Pierce downplayed the loss of DeVante Adams, saying, next
man up, move on?

Speaker 1 (00:31):
Is it that simple?

Speaker 2 (00:32):
And Steelers wide receiver George Pickens recently called Lions wide receiver.
I'm on Ross Saint Brown, a slot merchant. What jumps
out to you about this one? We'll talk about all
that and more right now as we travel across the
Serengetti on our number two. So you're saying there's a chance,

(00:55):
or are you saying there's a chance? Welcome in the
big game of another hour of the Benmaalor Show. We
are in the air everywhares we talk continuously. It's what
we're supposed to do. They pay us to do that.

(01:57):
this hour. Play the Itsmaey, we'll leave base We'll get
back to baseball later. Let's go to football. And the
trading is underway. The flag is up and we had
Devonte Adams traded to the Jets. More on that later
we saw the Buffalo Bills acquire Amari Cooper that samare As.
He comes over from the Cleveland football team. Our lead

(02:20):
this hour, though, is from Viva Las Vegas. That is
where the Raiders. The post mortem on the departure of
one Devonte Adams is the talk. And now what do
you think happened? So Devonte Adams is traded to the Jets.
So now the buzzards are out circling around the Raider
facility there in Henderson.

Speaker 1 (02:41):
Nevada, and they're like, Hey, what can we get?

Speaker 2 (02:43):
What can we pick away. The boss attempted to put
the kibosh.

Speaker 1 (02:50):
On the noise.

Speaker 2 (02:51):
There has been a growing drum beat that the other
star on the Raiders could be entering the transfer portal shrift.
You've been following along or not? Maybe not, But Raiders
owner Mark Davis, he's the guy with the funny hair.
Mark Davis tried to end the rampant speculation, not just

(03:12):
a grassroots movement, but the speculation regarding the future of
Max Crosby when he told reporters that Max Crosby will
not be going anywhere. He called the noise not true.
That's a quote not true. Said, it's just not happening
from the owner's mouth, Mark Davis, who was in the

(03:36):
right genetic lottery. He happened to be born to al
and now he runs the Raiders. So let us discuss
the question.

Speaker 1 (03:45):
For those of you a little slow.

Speaker 2 (03:47):
The Raiders owner Mark Davis has denied that Max Crosby
trade rumors are based in reality. How much stalk do
you put in this? I've got Surge, party City and Tuxedo.
Put all these things together and take a helicopter ride
now n burn. So Mark Davis was not very convincing

(04:12):
on this side of the microphone. I don't know about
where you sit, but on this side, not too convincing.
And here's why, right, Max Frosby, you'd say, this is
the guy should play for the Raiders' entire career and
all that. And you know he's got the whole persona.
He's got that raider thing down pack, like he was

(04:32):
born to be a raider right out of Central Casting, right,
he's down to the tattoos, the whole thing. But regardless
of that, Mark Davis not convincing because it just the tone.

Speaker 1 (04:44):
There's something about the Toronto and play it for you.

Speaker 2 (04:46):
We didn't hear you didn't hear it, but trust me,
the vibe I got the aura from Mark.

Speaker 1 (04:51):
Davis was well, I'm saying there's a shot here.

Speaker 2 (04:54):
You know, everyone's got a price and if the price
is right, we'll make something happen, right, And I do
believe no one's untradeable, right, the idea that no one,
you know, there's anyone in the NFL that cannot be
trade as well, mahomes will never be traded and all that.
And you say, well, that's the one guy, but everyone
else is in play there and all that. But at
some point Mahomes gets a little older and injuries start

(05:16):
piling up, it wouldn't be impossible to see a scenario
where he ends up getting traded. But in this part
of the book, all right, Max Crosby, he's twenty seven,
so he's based on the average life expectancy of domination
as an NFL player, he's got about five years or
so of sustained success, and so that makes him a

(05:37):
bigger commodity. And it's not Dino Might. It's dynamic pricing,
also known as surge pricing. The surge pricing so the
Raiders could automatically raise their price tag because hey, the
demand is high, there's not a lot available.

Speaker 1 (05:54):
And if it is true that Tom Brady is.

Speaker 2 (05:58):
Going to be meddling with the Raiders, wouldn't Brady want
to put his own mark on the Raiders? And that
means drafting a whole new crop of players. And the
way this works, you don't get full credit if the
team turns things around and you did it with the
leftover players, you don't get the full amount of credit.

(06:21):
And that if you're the Lions, though, this is your time,
This is your time, and my entire life the Lions
were a joke and now they're actually relevant, and who
knows how long this is gonna last.

Speaker 1 (06:36):
You've got to go for it. You gotta go all in,
all right.

Speaker 2 (06:40):
The Lions are in that winning window at this particular point,
and if they want Crosby make the Godfather offer, who cares?
You have draft picks to reinforce and try to win
championships and all that stuff. And it's they're just they're
a renewable resource. You can get rid of them. And
a lot of people might not know this, but Max

(07:00):
Crosby was born in Michigan and attended Eastern Michigan, so
he's got family there. And I know he spent some
time living in Texas as well, but there's there's some
family in the state of Michigan. So there's there's a
chance Eastern Michigan local boy comes.

Speaker 1 (07:16):
Home, does well? All right? Now?

Speaker 2 (07:17):
Page two Here, staying with the Raiders theme, Antonio Pierce,
the head coach of the Raiders. He was asked about
the trade of Devonte Adams. Did he say A were parked?
Be no comment or c next man up?

Speaker 1 (07:36):
All right?

Speaker 2 (07:37):
The answer, by the way, Antonio Pierce downplaying the loss
of Devonte Adams said, next man up, move on. Is
it that simple? Is it that simple? And so I'm
not in my head. Yes, I mean the Raiders have
become a bad team. There was a shot early on
where they beat the Ravens, and then the game that

(07:58):
the whole thing went to hell was to lose the
Caroline at home. That is an unforgivable sin and that
was the point of demarcation for the Raiders. That's where
they were at the fork of the road and they
gagged up a game they were at home against a
terrible Carolina team and allowed Andy Dalton to tear them up.
And now the season's gone to tatters just like that.

(08:19):
But I'm not in my head. I agree with Antonio
Pierce because what is he supposed to do?

Speaker 1 (08:24):
Here? A serious question, like what are you supposed to do?

Speaker 2 (08:27):
What do you go down to party city there and
get some balloons and you have no other options? You
have a pity party. The chew Chu trade keeps moving
and it's a grueling adventure marathon the NFL season and
all that. Devonte Adams is just another disgruntled employee and
so they got rid of me. He didn't want to
play there and he was guilty of embellishing a hamstring injury.

(08:48):
It would appear, based on the evidence that we have
to expedite the trade to the Jets.

Speaker 1 (08:52):
And sure looks that way considering that.

Speaker 2 (08:54):
He got traded, and now he's going to play in
the game on Sunday where he missed the last couple
of Raider games. Oh hammy, the hammy went whammy. But
all of a sudden, he's good to go. So if
you're the Raiders, like somebody else will have an opportunity.
One door closes, the one opens up, all these cliches
and all that, and somebody will have an opportunity to
lead the Raiders in receiving. Right, take the ball from

(09:16):
Devonte Adams and go on your way, although you do
have a turd, and Aidan O'Connell throw you the football
for now. All right, final point. We go now to
the burg. We go to the burg? Why because that
is where Steeer wide receiver George Pickens continues to feed
the content machine for those of us who are in

(09:37):
the world of gas baggery, the wizardry of gas baggery.
So George Pickens spoke on some FS one show. I
don't know what and they changed the name of all
these shows. He was popped up on FS one this week,
George Pickens, and he was talking about slot receivers, So
there's not about that and receivers who can rack up

(09:58):
really gaudy fans as he stats, right, really gotta gotti
fantasy stats. And well, rather let me tell you what
George Pickens said. Let's go to the audio tape.

Speaker 1 (10:09):
Stematically is the biggest is the biggest thing.

Speaker 3 (10:11):
You know football, that's how you get I'm and Ross
Saint Brown's you know, slot merchants. You know that's schematically
getting get fed the ball.

Speaker 1 (10:20):
Right, So that's the money quote right there, slot merchant slot.
Oh my god, that's so offensive. He called me a
slot merchant. Yeah, that's the money quote. So we'll react
to that.

Speaker 2 (10:34):
George Pickens, the guy with the funny riding on his EyeBlack, says, Hey,
George Pickens, I'm on Ross Saint Brown, slot merchant. What
jumps out at you about that quote? What jumps out
at you about that quote?

Speaker 1 (10:48):
All right? So I will go first here because I
don't see you, I don't hear you, So I'm gonna
go first.

Speaker 2 (10:52):
So Pickins in the cartoon bubble above my head to
the right of my head.

Speaker 4 (10:58):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (10:58):
Pickens is wearing a tuck and he wants to have
a nice dance at the haters ball, right, But it's
bigger than that.

Speaker 1 (11:06):
This is the green eyed monster, is what it is.

Speaker 2 (11:09):
That George Pickens' statistics blow compared to the top receivers
in the NFL.

Speaker 1 (11:15):
And it chills him. Right, He's a diva with a
capital D.

Speaker 2 (11:20):
And it drives him insane that he thinks he's better
than I'm on around say Brown and all these guys,
and yet they have better numbers. And so he's obviously
jealous and he's like, well, he's just a slot merchant
and all that. But what he's ultimately saying is he's
upset with the offensive coaching staff in Pittsburgh. George Pickens
that he wants to be a slot merchant at He

(11:43):
would like to be the guy that gets all the
catches and all that stuff. If it's that easy, why
didn't he do it right? And why is it Pittsburgh
not using George Pickens in that way? And you can
argue they don't have a quarterback, so it doesn't matter
with the two stiffs that they have there, and Russell Wilson,
who's likely going to play this weekend, and Justin Fields.
But I'm on Ross Saint Brown though. If he's a

(12:05):
slot merchant, good for him. You talk about cashing in
as a slot merchant. Picked up seventy seven million dead
presidents this past offseason from the Lions, and that that's
guaranteed money. So the Lions are like, hey, we be
your stat stuffing and compiling stats and all that, but

(12:27):
it we like that, we'll pay you a lot of
money for that. It is the Ben Maler Show. If

Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Maler
Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific on

Speaker 5 (13:34):
The great silent majority of listeners to The Ben Malor
Show sit on the sidelines, never having their opinions heard.
You're invited to break the glass ceiling by taking up
gigabytes with the Ben Maler Show. Just follow your host
on x He's at Ben Maller and you can post
at and follow our executive producer. He is manning the
phones if you want to get on the show. He's
the man you gotta get through. But he's more than

(13:55):
just a call screener. He is the liar, liar and
the menace of the Fox Sports Radio network. It's the
Coop the Loop Justin Cooper and he's at u H.
Bronco Fan.

Speaker 1 (14:05):
Wow, Patny, it's a bas package I've ever seen.

Speaker 5 (14:07):
Yeah, I've heard that before at Ali from the tyrack
dot Com. Fox Sports Radio Studios. It's Ben Mallor.

Speaker 2 (14:13):
Late Night Drug Tester writes in as we began this
hour with the stylings of Max Crosby Antonio Pierce commentary
about his former receiver Devonte Adams, a hodgepodge of things
to discuss. Late Night Drug Tester says, also the great
quote by George Pickens that Aman Ross Saint Brown is

(14:35):
a slot merchant. Late Night Drug Tester says, I got
to disagree with the second hour mal monologue. If a
local boy comes back, he says to the hometown, it
isn't too good. It usually is to borrow money from
any family that is left. Sounds like that touch to
nerve Late Night Drug Tester. A lot of relatives coming back. Yeah,

(14:59):
ke I've been rightes In from Florida says, I call
draft picks the Maltese falcon because they're the stuff that
dreams are made of. Quote from the movie. They don't
like to assume you know that. How dare you, Kevin?

Speaker 1 (15:12):
How dare you?

Speaker 2 (15:13):
But that is a good line, and I call them
scratch your tickets. It's a renewable resource. It's like imagine
being a farmer in Iowa or Nebraska somewhere right. You
work your ass off on the farm or wherever, any
of those places where they a lot of farming and
you see work your ass off, and then you're like,
I love the crop so much.

Speaker 1 (15:31):
I don't want to cut it down. I don't want
to do it. It's so the corn is so perfect.
I just want to hold on to it. I don't
want to know. Nope. But the whole point is, do
we need to make money?

Speaker 2 (15:41):
And you can guess what, you can have more crop,
more corn grow next year, shocking. Firk Dog says Ben,
I took my pants off for the ti Iraq Live read.

Speaker 1 (15:55):
You didn't tell me to keep them on. I understandable,
understand them.

Speaker 2 (16:00):
Art puffin og Art Puffett says, Ben, you must redeem
yourself and apologize for saying Walker Mueller sucks.

Speaker 6 (16:07):
Do it?

Speaker 2 (16:07):
No, No, the man made sixteen starts in the regular season,
had an ERA of five and a half, and he
didn't even make it five innings in this game against
the Mets. Now, hey, good job he got through it. Fine,
I'm not gonna I don't apologize. Why do I apologize
for telling you the truth? Who apologizes for telling the truth?

Speaker 4 (16:27):
Man?

Speaker 1 (16:27):
You jobs the Dodgs win a game. I got Andy,
the comic book nerd over there.

Speaker 2 (16:32):
He said, oh, you should apologize to Dave Roberts. Then
they went out and lost the next game because of
the bullpen nonsense. And I didn't hear anything from him.
And now this stop, stop, stop the madness. Please, all
right is the Ben Malich? 't's go the phones, Jerome
in Charleston, bring it home, Jerome, Hey.

Speaker 7 (16:53):

How long you go keep Skimes? You couldn't keep Garrett.

Speaker 8 (18:22):
Cold very long?

Not very long, not very long? How long ago they
can keep him for as soon as he becomes a
free agent. Else? Well, no, but that's seven that's like
seven years.

Speaker 2 (18:34):
So you got you got him for another six years
because he's so you can't be you can't leave as
a free agent for like seven years.

Speaker 1 (18:39):
The team controls him for seven years. Seven years.

Speaker 2 (18:42):
Yes, you start the arbitration process after a couple of years,
and then you're not technically a free agent till after
seven years.

Speaker 7 (18:48):
Hey, I got asked you about that, Andrew Reef.

Speaker 2 (20:36):
Let's say hello to Kyle who is in Connecticut. Kyle, Welcome,
It's the Ben Maler Show and you are on the air.

Speaker 1 (20:46):
Are in the air everywhere. What's up?

Speaker 6 (20:48):
Hey?

Speaker 9 (20:48):
Hey, thanks Ben maller Man, first time caller.

Speaker 8 (20:51):
Man, I appreciate you.

Speaker 9 (20:52):
I listened to you every night while I'm at work.

Speaker 1 (20:54):
Man, thank you. What kind of work did you?

Speaker 8 (20:57):
Twelve?

Speaker 3 (20:57):
Oh?

Speaker 4 (20:58):
Nice?

Speaker 1 (20:58):
Just around Connecticut. Are all over the place.

Speaker 9 (21:01):
Uh, just about Connecticut. The father that go is Rhode Island,
probably like three days of week.

Speaker 8 (21:06):
Okay, I got you, I gotta I got a question
for you.

Speaker 9 (21:11):
And this is not you know, this is not something
I heard.

Speaker 7 (21:14):
It just you know, just a thought.

Speaker 9 (21:16):
So Tom Brady is supposedly taking over the Raiders, you know,
oh operations, right, yeah, is that what they say?

Speaker 2 (21:27):
Well, well he's he owns a very small percent of
the Raiders, but they're supposedly going to allow him to
run things.

Speaker 1 (21:37):
That's the room.

Speaker 9 (21:37):
Yeah, so you know, draft draft players most likely bringing
the most likely when you once you start.

Speaker 8 (21:44):
Doing something like that, you want your own people, you know,
in house.

Speaker 2 (21:48):
So yeah, but they can't. Here's the here's the problem.
They can't bring Josh McDaniels back. They already had him
there and they fired him, so they can't.

Speaker 9 (21:54):
Really bring that. But but what about this, what do
you think about this. Do you think he might bring
in a Bill Belichick?

Speaker 2 (22:04):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (22:04):
I know that's bouncing around.

Speaker 2 (22:05):
People are tossing that out, and it makes sense to
throw the rumor out because, like Brady, if if you
ask Brady said, hey, do you want Bill Belichick if
be a coach, he can't say no, right because that
would be like, oh my god, you don't like Belichick
and that would be a whole no. But why Belichick
can get a better job, So why would he want
the Raider job?

Speaker 8 (22:21):
Yeah, he could definitely get a better I could see
him being in you know, New.

Speaker 9 (22:25):
York or Dallas or Philly or something like that.

Speaker 1 (22:28):
Yeah, yeah, Bill, Yeah, Like if you'r bell.

Speaker 9 (22:30):
Cowboy fan, I'm a cowboy fan myself.

Speaker 1 (22:33):
Mike Doolen right now, can you play now? Can you
play defense, Kyle? Because they need help on defense? Can
you tackle someone?

Speaker 9 (22:41):
Pretty good linebacker? But I'm fifty one years old. I'll
take my time is up.

Speaker 1 (22:44):
I don't know about that.

Speaker 2 (22:45):
I don't know the right right cocktail of steroids. Put
you back out there, no problem, man, We'll say my knees.

Speaker 9 (22:51):
Ain't the same.

Speaker 8 (22:52):
Man.

Speaker 9 (22:53):
I got you everything I.

Speaker 1 (22:54):
Got right now, I hear you man, Yeah, I hear you,
all right, well.

Speaker 4 (22:59):
Yeah, yeah, no.

Speaker 2 (23:00):
I mean Bellie Brady can say, hey, I want I
want Beligian, But Brett Bellis is not going to take
that job because he's too close to Schula and that's
not going to get him where he wants to go.

Speaker 1 (23:11):
I'd be safe out there. Call me more often.

Speaker 2 (23:13):
The great Kyle in Connecticut driving around well speaking of
he's a cowboy fan. But the team that plays down
the road from him, up the way a little bit
there in Foxborough, the Patriots. Congratulations. Another Patriot player has
been arrested. Christian Barmore arrested during a traffic stop and

(23:36):
he claimed for racism. He claimed he is the second
Patriot player to be arrested. And I think this is
the last two weeks, if I'm not mistaken, right, the
player that was arrested in a domestic situation prior to
the trip across.

Speaker 1 (23:52):
The way there to London.

Speaker 2 (23:54):
And now this there is body cam footage that TMZ
has of the Patriot defensive ten Christian Barmore in Providence
and he, of course we're upset with the police and
all that. He's twenty five years old. This guy was
a second round pick of the Patriots. He got pulled
over about one thirty in the morning, right around one

(24:19):
of them. I because he sent some comment out about
attacking the police and all that, and then but they
released the footage and seems like he's it's kind of
a little bit of an overreaction. He was driving around
a jeep Grand Cherokee, got pulled over right around one
in the morning in Providence. He immediately says, I'm a

(24:42):
football player. I ain't here for none of that.

Speaker 1 (24:46):
Well, I'm happy to report it didn't work for him,
much like when I got pulled over by a cop
one time and I was like, oh, he said, where
are you going? I said, I'm going to the radio station.
You know, maybe he'd give me a break. You had
no idea who I was. You want to know where
Petros was big afternoon. Never heard of me, no idea
that was it.

Speaker 2 (25:06):
But anyway, so they turned they pulled the guy over
and turned out the vehicle he was driving is not registered.
Not that it's not registered in Connecticut, it's not registered anywhere.
How do you even get a car, I thought, to
leave the lot. You have to have the paperwork filed
the register.

Speaker 1 (25:27):
How does one leave.

Speaker 5 (25:29):
I guess he didn't get it from a lot.

Speaker 1 (25:31):
Okay, But like every time I've had to deal with cars,
and I don't buy new cars anymore, you know, because
I make all that money. Like Jerome said, but when
I get a car, you always have to do all
the paperwork right away, right.

Speaker 5 (25:40):
They don't like just leave it. I'm guessing he probably
skipped the paperwork as well.

Speaker 2 (25:44):
Think so all right, Well, who knows, but he of
course dropped the R word racism there and did not
based on what I said, unless I didn't see something, maybe.

Speaker 1 (25:53):
I missed part of the video was I didn't see
anything that was untoored. I think if anyone gets pulled
over and their car's not registered, the car is going
to get told. I think it's normally normally how that works.

Speaker 4 (26:03):

differently than that, but he would like Chris to come. Well,
Chris sold out. Chris sold out for the dreaded day shift.
He took the money and ran, and I haven't heard
from much anymore. He used to call every once in
a while.

Speaker 1 (26:45):
Not so much.

Speaker 2 (26:46):
Eke in Roseville, Minnesota says Bill Belicheck would never take
the Las Vegas job because his girlfriend is too young
to get into the casinos. But hey, lame jokes are
on Friday. Yeah, did you see the Daily Mail? The
great tabloid in London this week said that Bill Belichick

(27:06):
is heading towards marriage.

Speaker 1 (27:07):

Speaker 1 (27:39):
I underested would you date Belichick if he was interested. No,
you would not. Why not?

Speaker 5 (27:46):
No, not your old farts heed love to Lorena.

Speaker 1 (27:49):
Yeah, old guys needed no, not for you? All right?

Speaker 2 (27:54):
Well this what's your name? Jordan Hudson? That's like the
if you're looking for a sugar daddy that you hit
the lottery on that one.

Speaker 10 (28:01):
Right, come on, I bet she went hunting for a while.
They usually linger at bars?

Speaker 1 (28:06):
Is that the move there?

Speaker 2 (28:07):
What's the where do these sugar is it called? They're
called sugar babies? Right, they're looking for the sugar day,
So where do they? There's websites for this though, right,
you can go on.

Speaker 10 (28:15):
Website sugar daddy for me dot com is a good one.

Speaker 1 (28:17):
You knew that right off the top of your head. Interesting.

Speaker 5 (28:19):
Yeah, do they still have that candy bar? Sugar daddy?
That's still a thing.

Speaker 1 (28:25):
I don't think so, No, I don't know is it?

Speaker 7 (28:28):
Yeah?

Speaker 8 (28:29):
Is it?

Speaker 1 (28:30):
Let me let me check here, sugar daddy? Never heard
of that Ben candy mister? Oh yeah, now, I look
at Yeah, that wasn't my I didn't really like that.

Speaker 5 (28:40):
And I'm sure I'm real hard. Probably got four of
those in your jack o' lantern.

Speaker 1 (28:48):
Control of mister good mister goodbar you know that was
my thing, mister.

Speaker 5 (28:52):
Good that's a very different That's a chocolate.

Speaker 6 (28:53):
I know.

Speaker 1 (28:54):
I'm more of a chocolate guy.

Speaker 5 (28:55):
You know.

Speaker 1 (28:56):
I don't hate the other candy, but I'm more of
a chocolate guy. All right, Let's say let's say hello
to any meenie money Moe Trucker don is driving around
somewhere in Louisiana.

Speaker 3 (29:12):
Amen, I just wanted to say good morning to you.
First of all, good morning. I want to get your comment.
Let me put this thing in park.

Speaker 1 (29:26):
Where are we at right now? Where we we're in Louisiana.
Where in Louisiana? Where we at here?

Speaker 3 (29:31):
I'm being Shreeport, Louisiana.

Speaker 1 (29:33):
Beautiful Shreeport Louisiana. All right, all right?

Speaker 3 (29:38):
But anyway, you had brought up uh John Sayton, and
they we said Russell Wilson head but there in Denver
and all of that money send him away.

Speaker 9 (29:52):
And my point or my thoughts to you is, do
you think they just.

Speaker 3 (29:59):
Want to find out that Russell Wilson have anything left
in the tank? Because I think they have a somewhat
aby a four and two record with Justin Fields, and
I don't know if Lemon they could do that right now.

Speaker 2 (30:18):
Yeah, But their argument is they're foreign too, and they
it's not because of the quarterback that they're foreign too,
that there's other mitigating factors.

Speaker 1 (30:27):
Do I think that Russell Wilson's good?

Speaker 2 (30:29):
No, I don't, But they obviously don't think Justin Fields
is the guy, or else they wouldn't be doing this.
And the idea that you can't lose your job to
injury is it's a statement. Well, you can lose your
job to injury. Two of the greatest takeovers in it
and you know this Trucker Don Kurt Warner and Saint
Louis with the Rams back in the day, right Trent

(30:51):
Green got hurt, never got his job back, Tom Brady
and Drew Bledsel. So if Justin Fields was that good,
he would absolutely have kept the job. But that Mike
Tomlin doesn't trust him. And I haven't watched every second
of every Steeler game, but from what I've seen, I
haven't been overly impressed. He looks like the same guy
he was in Chicago, where he's inconsistent up and down

(31:12):
and all that. And the Steelers passing offense is ranked
twenty eighth in the NFL, which isn't very good.

Speaker 3 (31:18):
But I agree with that. I just don't know if yeah,
well yeah.

Speaker 2 (31:24):
At how about this that game is I think Sunday Night.
I think that's the Sunday Night game the Jets and
the Steelers, and so they'll both play. I'll bet you
they both end up playing in the game that they'll
go back and forth between them.

Speaker 3 (31:37):
I agree with that. I feel neither one of I'm
gonna get through your Baltimore, but I still would like
to find out.

Speaker 1 (31:44):
Yeah, all right, well that'll be safe.

Speaker 2 (31:46):
This sounds like there's a lot of activity, Don, a
lot of things going on there at the truck yard.

Speaker 1 (31:52):
All right there he goes truck or Don.

Speaker 2 (31:56):
Freeport, Louisian. Sounds like there's a lot a lot of
guys with trucks, a lot of big trucks. It is

Speaker 2 (35:59):
The the correct answer from the New York Football Giants
Darius Slaton seven drop passes, Amari Cooper and Alan Lazard
are tied for second.

Speaker 1 (36:14):
It's Mallard. How about that?

Speaker 4 (36:15):
To the third degree, this is one big fan gets grilled.

Speaker 1 (36:21):
Coop dal Loop.

Speaker 6 (36:23):
Joe Burrow is on track to set career highs in
numerous categories and is playing some of the best football
of his career.

Speaker 1 (36:29):
However, he's got the eighth best odds to win MVP.

Speaker 5 (36:32):
Now.

Speaker 6 (36:32):
The last quarterback to win MVP playing for a team
that finished with less than eleven wins was John Elway.

Speaker 1 (36:37):
Back in eighty seven.

Speaker 6 (36:38):
Ben If the Bengals finished with a winning record and
Burrow continues his pace, could he win?

Speaker 2 (36:44):
Uh? Well, he could have a seat to watch Mahomes
or Derrek Henri. Derek Henry's like Lamar Jackson. No, he's
not going to win. You have to be on a
good team. He is not on a good team that
is not going And I love Joe Joe Burrow. To me,
I know the numbers look good and all that. The
eyeball test does not look all that good for Joe Burrow.

Speaker 8 (37:05):
So no.

Speaker 6 (37:06):
Next, that's being reported that the Colts expect Anthony Richardson
to start this week. Does he give the team a
better chance to win than Joe Flacco.

Speaker 1 (37:13):
God, no, no, you know the as it was an
obvious question.

Speaker 2 (37:16):
Coup Anthony Richardson. I would not want him on my
flag football team. He's that bad at throwing the ball.
He's everything bad people thought he was going to be
coming out of Florida. Joe Flacco gives you a better
chance to win. Richardson's a disaster in every way and
he gets hurt every other game.

Speaker 1 (37:33):
Next.

Speaker 6 (37:33):
Ryan Day is in his sixth season as head coach
at Ohio State, and he has delivered double digit wins
every single season except the COVID shortened season. However, he's
now only two and six in games against teams ranked
in the top five.

Speaker 1 (37:44):
Do you think his seat could be warming up? Yes,
it's Ohio State, right.

Speaker 2 (37:48):
They don't have any patients at Ohio State, and the
losses to the Michigan Now, Michigan's falling off the map now,
so it's a little bit easier.

Speaker 1 (37:54):
But yeah, he's absolutely on the hot seat. How do
we know you passes? That is a win? I want
the game, dot yawn, Eddie. I wanted to get no yawning, Eddie,

Are You A Charlotte?

In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
