Speaker 4 (02:52):
Shoreb Our lead this hour from so Col so Far Stadium,
as our friend Helmet Man calls it, better known to
everyone Else's Sofi Stadium in the hood in Inglewood. That
was the ballroom for the Pigskin Sore, a dance party
(03:13):
that kicked off.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
Week number eight of the NFL season. Justin Jefferson and
the Big Bad Minnesota Vikings after that great start, they
did lose back on Sunday to the Lions, but trying
to get back in the win column a short week
and Justin Jefferson going against Cooper Cup remember him, Yeah,
he used to be good and now he's playing again.
(03:37):
He hadn't played in some time, but he's back. And
you had Al Michaels driving down from Brentwood down the
four h five over to Inglewood and call the game.
Kirk herb Street flew in and they had to call
on Amazon. Now, I'm not sure if you watch this
game or not. It was really much else to watch,
so maybe you watched nothing. I don't know, but we
(03:59):
watched so you would not have to. And Cooper Cup
delivered as.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
He had a touchdown.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
In his return and Poka Nakua also played and he
didn't get in the end zone, but he had one
hundred and six yards on seven catches in the Rams
surprise the Vikings thirty to twenty the final in the
Thursday night game, Matthew stafford his name in trade rumors
the last couple of days, two hundred and seventy nine
yards passing four touchdowns. He had the obligatory interception, and
(04:33):
the Rams get out of last place in the NFC West.
They are three and four on the season, as they're
a game under five hundred. That terrible Ram team, very
similar to last year, got off to a bad start.
Now they're working their way back into contention. Or are
they working their way back into contention? So the better story, though,
(04:57):
is in the losing locker room. The previous unbeaten Viking
I have now lost two games in the span of
a couple of days. So let us discuss the question
who gets the blame for Sam Donald's Vikings stumbling and
bumbling and stubbing their toe against the Rams. So I've
gotten clock, weather forecast, and remote control, and we will
(05:24):
tie all of these things together and we are going
to make a pinata, which is what the Vikings were
in this game, a pinata, and the Rams were at
the kids' base, at the baseball bat, the kids party.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
They were swinging away, all right.
Speaker 2 (05:37):
So to answer the question, we love playing the blame game,
who gets the blame? Juicy Lucy for Sam Donald and
the Minnesota Vikings. Well, the Viking ship. I studied the
Vikings when I was the Viking ship would stink from
the quarterback down.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
You read that in all the educational books, from the
quarterback down. So we'll start.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
Where was Sam Donald who came out. He saw the
beginning of the game, and he was weaving magic at
the beginning of the It looked like he was back
at San Clemente High School in the OC or at
usc taking on Oregon State or Stanford the way that
Donald was just torching the ram defense, cooking with gas
(06:21):
in the first quarter. Now, I finished with ninety seven
yards in the first quarter, two touchdowns, no interceptions. And
I had people that I know in my circle who
are I call them a holes. They're called trolls, and
they were texting me as I was enjoying the game,
and they were trying to bust my balls at Sam
Donald blows or the Rams blow and Donald's great.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
And blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. Anyway, So something.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
Happened though, and I know when it happened. I don't
know why it happened. I'm not sure how it happened,
but it happened at the end of the first intermission,
the first intermission, that is when Sam Donald became punched
the clock guy, and he just punched the clock. And
(07:08):
it was a minimum day, a minimum day for Sam Dartal.
How do we know it's a minimum day because Donald
was the Jets version of Sam Donald the rest of
the game. Now, what do I mean by that? He
sucked at a time you cannot suck. He did the
bare minimum. The Vikings only scored six points a couple
(07:29):
of field goals after that first quarter onslot and the
evidence is overwhelming. It's direct evidence. Darnald attempted seventeen passes
after the first quarter final forty five minutes of the game.
He was ten of seventeen, no touchdowns, no interceptions, a
passer rating of eighty six point one. And if you
look at the last three weeks and Sam Donald now,
(07:53):
the numbers have not been there, they have not been there.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
And this is a spot for the Vikings. I know
it's a short week, I trust me.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
I watched every Ram game and the Rams have a
bunch of Mattadors on defense, Ole ole ole, Ole, twenty
fifth in scoring defense, come into this game twenty sixth
in total defense, and they bottled up the Vikings after
the first quarter.
Speaker 1 (08:19):
That should not happen. I'm happy it did, but that
should not happen now.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
On the other hand, as we continue to unravel what
took place in this game, what the hell happened to
Brian Flores in the Viking defense? Statistically a handicap a
game like this, and in many key defensive categories, the
Vikings had a top ten defense in some categories, they
had a top five defense statistically coming into this game. Well,
(08:45):
what happened was a shot to the solar plexus, a
gut punch. Because the Rams got their guys back, Cooper
Cup and Puka Deakua and Minnesota, they had the Island
Life Blue short week travel all the excuses. What was
me they were the B word bedraggled is what they were.
(09:09):
Right short week weather weather forecast has changed. The magic
wand has been lost in Minnesota, and they are right now.
If you look at the weather forecast in the Twin
Cities for the Vikings, there's a lot of purple haze
over the Vikings.
Speaker 1 (09:24):
They were rattled.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
It was a slack jawed performance. Nine penalties and the
Rams ended up getting extra five first downs by penalty.
Speaker 1 (09:37):
Now, some of you seemed convinced that this is.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
All rigged and that the NFL wanted the Rams to
win in the Vikings to lose, And we'll get to
this more later.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
I'm not gonna do right now.
Speaker 2 (09:50):
But the face mask called the Vikings were down by eight,
Sam Donald was clearly the Roland Ram players tackle them
in the end zone for safety. But it was a
a face mass penalty that the three blind referees did
not see. But that would not If you think Sam
Darnold was going to lead the Vikings down after sucking
for the entire rest of the game and not only
(10:12):
get a touchdown but then a two point conversion, you
are bonkers. Okay, you're a loser. You're a loser. And
but to me, the story here is the Viking defense.
The Rams got their guys back, and that was like
a bad navy. They gave up yards by land, by air,
and by sea. Kyrone Williams, who's a really good running back,
the Rams got him in the middle rounds out of
Notre Dame ninety seven yards on the ground. Matthew Stafford
(10:35):
averaged over eight yards per pass attempt. I mean he
did have an interception, but he always has one. It
was an all around frazzled effort by Minnesota. Now the
other side, how does this win change things for Sean McVay.
Speaker 1 (10:50):
And the Rams?
Speaker 2 (10:52):
So this is a massive I don't think we can
understate this. And I don't want to be the shock jock,
And why would I want to be that. Those guys
get paid a lot of money.
Speaker 1 (10:59):
I don't. But here's my position on this.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
Okay, the Rams, How does this win change things for
Sean mcvay's Rams. They grab the remote control, Okay, they
grab the imaginary remote control and they hit the pause button.
Speaker 1 (11:12):
They pause live TV is what they're doing.
Speaker 2 (11:15):
Okay, Because here's why we are eleven days away from
the musical chairs stopping the game of musical chairs, and
the music will stop in eleven days.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
That's the trade deadline, right.
Speaker 2 (11:27):
The Rams in this game look like a legit NFC contender.
They had Cooper Cup, they had Pookin de Coula, and
this sets up the showdown in Seattle week nine. If
the Rams can muster up a win over a pretty
(11:49):
mediocre Seattle team and get back to five hundred, then
the move here for the Rams would be to abstain.
Speaker 1 (11:58):
From trading Cooper Cup or.
Speaker 2 (12:00):
Matthew Stafford or any of these guys. You never throw
away a season, especially not now, especially not now.
Speaker 1 (12:08):
If you look out at the serengetti in.
Speaker 2 (12:11):
The NFC and all the wide open land there, the
forty nine ers are bleary eyed and their weather beaten.
The Vikings appear to be bush whacked or should I
say darnald whack. The last couple of games, Seattle's got
Geno Smith. To any team with Gino Smith you cannot
take seriously.
Speaker 1 (12:28):
The Eagles, you have to say, there's something there, but
they still have a glitch. The Falcons you're not really
feeling it because of Kirk Cousins and the Packers okay,
maybe the packers, but you feel like there's still some
fungus there on the cheese. There's still something rotting with
(12:50):
the packers. It is the Ben Malord Show.

So there's some interesting scuttle bud around the show. And
(13:34):
I think it has happened again, something that happens every
so often. It's like once in a blue moon has
happened again. It's a behind the scenes story that nobody
else has. None of our competitors have it. We're the
only show that has this story. We will give you
the details on this. It is a shocking story and
(13:56):
you're you're not gonna believe what I'm gonna tell you
because it's wild and crazy on every level.
Speaker 1 (14:04):
And we will investigate that.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
Also an NFL head coach using some old Mississippi slang.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
What is that all about? We'll get to it and
we will do it next.
Speaker 5 (14:18):

Speaker 1 (14:53):
Thank you Manzi. As we are rolling through the wee
hours of the morning here be here all night into
the World Series. Very funny.
Speaker 2 (15:05):
Then as much momentum as the the padres. Because I'm
not I think I saw this correct. I was looking
at some photos on social media and Fernando Tatis had
a lot of momentum when he was going into the
water there swimming.
Speaker 1 (15:20):
He was doing a cannon ball had a lot of
momentum there.
Speaker 2 (15:22):
And Manny Machado, Oh, man, Manny, he was actually he
was throwing a coconut. He was at an exotic island.
He was throwing a coconut like he was thrown at
Dave Roberts. It was it was interesting. It hopped, it hopped.
It wasn't a great throw by Machado, but it's pretty
nice there. Matt the Warrior Raider Tom Brady rose Fan
says the Rams were in the driver's seat for the wind,
(15:44):
but holy hell, that missed face mask robbed.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
The Fightings of a chance to come back.
Speaker 2 (15:50):
All right, Well, Matt's just a troll. He's absolutely a troll.
And this is a great tell. And I like it
because anybody that is reaching out to me saying, oh,
the Vikings had a great chance to come back and
win the game, you clearly don't either. Maybe you're blind
and death and all that, and you're just just stupid.
Speaker 1 (16:13):
I mean it's possible, you know, dumb, all those things,
stupid questions, just stupid people. Let's see here.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
Sam Donald at the end of the first quarter stopped playing.
I think he went down to San Clemente to go surfing,
do a little night surfing in San Clemente. He stopped playing,
so the Vikings took over. After a forty one yard punt,
Minnesota started first and ten at their own five yard line,
(16:41):
so they had to go. If my math is correct here,
I'm using a mal of math, they'd go ninety five yards.
There was a minute forty six on the clock and
there were no timeouts. Okay, so first pass incomplete, so
it's second down and ten. Donald gets sacked in the
end zone. They did have his face mask and they
(17:01):
call the safety. So at that point it was one
for two on the clock. Vikings would have had the ball.
What the twenty yard line, fifteen yard penalty, twenty yard
line still needing a touchdown and the two point.
Speaker 1 (17:15):
I mean, there's no debate that the game is over.
Speaker 2 (17:18):
Sam Darnold was die die diarrhea after the first quarter.
Speaker 1 (17:23):
Let's just call like it is here. Yeah, well, slim
Tim checks in from the Oregon Trail. He says, blazing
one up at work, Ben, I missed your voice last night.
Glad you were back. Thank you, Yeah, thank you. Tim.
Speaker 2 (17:36):
Dad Gummett the schmuck checks in. He's listening Derek in
Buffalo the Bill's Monster. Part of Bill's Mafius is the
Rams winning helped the Buffalo Bills they stay relevant and
don't trade Cooper Cup to the Chiefs, well, not yet.
If they lose to Seattle, watch out. One other note
(17:57):
from Bill's Monster Derek. He says, who will play more
in the NBA this season? Kawhi Leonard or Bronnie James.
Speaker 1 (18:05):
Yeah, Kawhi Leonard has sucked the joy that I once
had for the NBA out of my life. That is
the power.
Speaker 2 (18:14):
I spent my entire childhood, my adult life enjoying NBA basketball.
Speaker 1 (18:21):
I watch it now more for.
Speaker 2 (18:23):
Work than anything else. I do not fight it appealing.
I do not fight it exciting. I do not find
it dramatic. I find it painful.
Speaker 1 (18:31):
Okay, do you understand I think, Manzi, you would agree
with me, right, I hear you.
Speaker 7 (18:35):
Laughing because I understood it so much.
Speaker 1 (18:39):
Yes, I was so I was so excited, Moncy, when
the Clippers got Kawhi Leonard, I said, my dreams have
come true. No, They've got the superstar.
Speaker 2 (18:48):
And it has been nothing but him using mouthfeasance since
he got to the Clippers.
Speaker 1 (18:53):
It is unbelievable. And they signed him to another contract.
It's like they can't get rid of him. And I
don't understand if he was if he was in the military,
they'd use Article eighty three for malingering and he'd be
kicked out of the military. But he got a new contract.
Speaker 7 (19:11):
Yeah, no, Ben, I don't get it. But you know what,
I'm the stupid one. I'm the stupid one.
Speaker 1 (19:15):
Hope.
Speaker 6 (19:15):
No, still so stupid.
Speaker 1 (19:18):
No, can't do it being a Clippers fan.
Speaker 6 (19:21):
Maybe you're right, thank you this, that's what you chime in,
Thank you for that.
Speaker 7 (19:25):
Yeah, I just still have hope. I still have hope,
and I'm the stupid one.
Speaker 2 (19:30):
Well, I would like to point out that all those
idiot trolls, the Purple and Gold trolls, the historians, well
the Clippers.
Speaker 1 (19:36):
Have no one's gonna be there. There's no Clipper fans.
I don't know. I saw a packed arena with something
a Clipper fan, right, I mean, i'd say pretty good, right.
I don't know where they all come from, zi where
they all paid actors? And then you don't know.
Speaker 7 (19:48):
Those are real fans because I wasn't going to Englewood
on night number one. You know what, I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (19:52):
No, no, no. I considered it actually had a lea too.
Speaker 7 (19:55):
I considered it.
Speaker 1 (19:58):
Like a head cold. I'll go on a night when
they play like Sacramento and no one cares. Yeah like that.
Speaker 2 (20:03):
Yeah, because Sacramento is no fans, So I'd do something
like that, you know, that would be my move. But yeah,
Kawi Leonard thing just it just drives me nuts.
Speaker 6 (20:11):
Man.
Speaker 1 (20:12):
This is this is.
Speaker 2 (20:13):
Like the curse. You know, be careful what you ask for,
Be careful what you ask for. They get the guy
they wanted, and it's just been bungled ever since. Got
to hate that bait.
Speaker 1 (20:23):
It sucks in my opinion, that suck. That's right, coach Moore.
Speaker 2 (20:26):
Eugene in Chicago rights since says Ben, why did your
rams grab Sam Donald's helmet like that?
Speaker 1 (20:32):
Donald could have had whiplash after that. Take that, Eugene.
It's not powderpuff football. Eugene.
Speaker 2 (20:37):
You're you're in Chicago. You're supposed to be a tough guy.
Thought guys in Chicago would tough.
Speaker 1 (20:41):
Come out you just you're.
Speaker 2 (20:41):
A troll masshole. Mickey writes in from the Commonwealth. He says,
you lied after your trip to Boston. You said you
had no days off. Nonetheless, welcome back. I did say that,
and that was not a scheduled day off. That was
called the sick day, which I never take. By the way,
I have like ten years of sick time. I could
get sick and sick for ten years and I would
(21:02):
the company would have to pay me.
Speaker 1 (21:03):
I don't take share.
Speaker 6 (21:04):
I know.
Speaker 7 (21:05):
I was just say, you share sick days.
Speaker 1 (21:07):
Yeah, I'll give you some. I don't care a couple
of bucks. I'll give you some sick days.
Speaker 2 (21:10):
But no, I mean I had, I had. I'll explain
it all on my podcast. How about that.
Speaker 1 (21:15):
I there's there's a tease on my play Now, speaking
of drama, here, the streets are talking, and there is
some show drama here. We're trying to figure.
Speaker 2 (21:24):
Out, like Eddie's not here, he's not sick, He's perfectly fine.
Eddie's perfectly fine. So is there some kind of rebellion?
Like I was sick, I I'll explain the garlic and
all that. I had some other things going on, so
I had a legitimate reason. And I told my wife,
I said, I don't want to take a sick day
even though I'm sick. She said, what's the place that
(21:44):
sick day, I said, I don't want to do it.
I never take sick.
Speaker 1 (21:48):
I work.
Speaker 2 (21:48):
I've had laryngitis, I've done the show. I burned my
tongue a couple of weeks ago. I did the show
a couple of years ago. I remembery, I didn't burn
my toe. Well, actually I burned my tongue couple weeks so.
I bit my tongue a couple of weeks ago. My
tongue a couple of years ago. I had a lisp, but
I still did. I still did the show because no
one listens. I did the show with laryngitis. I did
the show with a lisp.
Speaker 1 (22:07):
So I figured, Okay, I can do the show with
like a head cold and all that. But I chose
I like.
Speaker 8 (22:12):
When I lose my voice A sexy voice, right, you
know it's all sexy. Last year I sang a Christmas
song with it like that.
Speaker 7 (22:18):
Oh yeah nice.
Speaker 2 (22:19):
Oh it drives me nuts, man, because I go up
and down with my voice, and if my voice is
not strong, I can't go up and down.
Speaker 1 (22:25):
And I feel like I feel like such a loser,
and I hate it.
Speaker 2 (22:29):
I cannot say now I do like it when I
have just that little Tinge where I like when I
did the Autumn Wind as a Raider, I was coming
off a little bit of an illness, and it made
me sound very masculine, and I sounded like, you know,
a man among men, you know, head and shoulders by bread,
and so that made me feel good. But I don't
normally sound like that. It sucks and so but anyway,
(22:51):
I'll get to that more later, but get.
Speaker 1 (22:53):
To the news here.
Speaker 2 (22:54):
This is wild the Naked City, right, more tales from
the Naked City.
Speaker 1 (22:59):
And a little Birdie told me.
Speaker 2 (23:02):
Is it true that a certain certain Fox Sports radio
employee who I will not name. I will not name,
took a night off from the radio show to attend
a random regular season NHL game between two crap bag
(23:23):
teams and failed to mention that's why this person did
not show up to work developing hot dot dot dot.
I will not say the guilty. The initials may be EG.
That's all I will say. That's all I will say.
Man Man Alive.

The hockey year he won, his King's won. They beat
the Sharks three to too.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
And you get did he actually get to play for
the Kings? Is that why he took the night off?
Was he a net for the Kings?
Speaker 7 (24:05):

Speaker 6 (24:06):
There is a Jets team that is undefeated that happens

of my old radio.

appeared on sports radio in Winnipeg, which is the largest
city in Manitoba. Fun fact, the more you know, Yeah,
but he doesn't do right, he got let go, so
he's out of radio now.
Speaker 1 (24:56):
My friend Rick. I don't know what he's doing now,
but he's no longer in the business.
Speaker 2 (24:59):
And it's a long time ago. But not a lot
going on in Winnow fire cheap hotels though. You can
get a hotel for like a hundred bucks, you know,
a good hotel for a hundred bucks. In Wenesday they
have some museums there. I've never been to Winnipeg, but
I wouldn't mind going. I mean, i'd be okay with that.
Would you want to go to Winnipeg?
Speaker 7 (25:15):
Sure, I've never been to Canada at all. No, so
I just I want to get there for sure.
Speaker 1 (25:20):
I've been back riding, Yeah, fake Canada. I was in
Niagara Falls, which is across you know that you've been,
like in Buffalo, they have Niagara Falls. You cross, there's
a bridge and you're in Canada. So I walked over
and I was like, this is the same as America,
except they used different money.
Speaker 2 (25:36):
And then when I was in a few months ago
and I was doing stuff for the TV show, we
were in Boston. We drove up to see Arnie in Burlington, Vermont,
and we were going to go to Montreal, which is
like Arnie lives like an hour and a half from Montreal,
which was like like not even really Canada's like being
in France or something.
Speaker 1 (25:50):
But I didn't have my passport.
Speaker 2 (25:52):
I don't have a passport, so I have to I
have to update my passport, so I couldn't go.
Speaker 7 (25:55):
Oh that sucks.
Speaker 1 (25:56):
Yeah, it was a bummer.
Speaker 6 (25:57):
You're supposed to like new year passport, like a year
before it expires.
Speaker 1 (26:02):
Yeah, it's been a lot longer than that. I'm not. Yeah,
I looked that you're an international traveler. I know you
go to Oakland. I did that, which is very.
Speaker 7 (26:14):
Yes, we did. We had a good time.
Speaker 2 (26:16):
Was it like, were you sitting Shiva? Were you like,
was it the nine days of Morning? Were you were
you an A's fan?
Speaker 6 (26:21):
No, we just wanted to see, you know, the Oakland
Coliseum and one game before the A's were moved, and I.
Speaker 7 (26:27):
Like, we had a good time. We had a good time.
Speaker 1 (26:29):
Yeah, I saw the video.
Speaker 6 (26:30):
Yeah, I thought we were gonna be the only fans there,
but there there was some fans. I thought I was
gonna be able to like yell at Julio Rodriguez, you know,
and that he was going to hear me. But it
wasn't like that.
Speaker 1 (26:38):
That was quite the That stadium terrible.
Speaker 6 (26:41):
Yes, I thought it was a little homie, you know, dated, dated,
but I liked it.
Speaker 8 (26:47):
I like, yeah, Dodger Stadium like girl, though, So how
did it compare in reality?
Speaker 7 (26:52):
I mean, no, Dodger Stadium's the best.
Speaker 6 (26:54):
Is the third oldest stadium in baseball. You wouldn't even
be able to tell that, you know what I mean.
Speaker 7 (26:58):
Like, it's there's so much cheese, so it's just it's different.
I just thought it was homie and I was like, oh,
it's cute, you know.
Speaker 1 (27:05):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (27:05):
The worst stadium I was ever in, not that I've
been to Oakland before, but the worst.
Speaker 1 (27:09):
One was Shase Stadium. That was a absolute turd bowl.
Chase Stadium, My god, was that place terrible and that
fortunately it's gone now so they don't have it where
they got a new years ago, they got a new
stadium anyway.
Speaker 3 (27:21):
Fun fact, fun fact, fun fact, fun fact, fun fact,
fun fact, fun fun fact.
Speaker 2 (27:27):
Now you know it's not my style, as Tony Bruno
used to say, to pile on anybody, but Russell Westbrook. Now,
my friend Monzi said that Westbrook wasn't that bad. But
I'm gonna give you the rest of the story Russell
Westbrook and his Nuggets day.
Speaker 1 (27:39):
I guess not his debut, right, this is the second game?
Speaker 7 (27:41):
Was this the second game? First game?
Speaker 1 (27:44):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (27:45):
Yeah, it was a first game, all right. So he
played twenty one minutes. He took ten shots, he was
two of ten. While he was on the court, the
Nuggets were outscored by twenty four points.
Speaker 1 (27:55):
That's my fun fact right there, Russell Westbrook. They lost
the game by fifth team points. While he was out there,
they routes. He had the worst plus minus on the
entire team. And someone named Julian Strather. I have no
idea who that is. I had never heard of that
person before.
Speaker 7 (28:12):
Yes, Julian Strather, Yes, I see him from.
Speaker 1 (28:15):
I don't know who that is. Yeah, apparently, I'm told
he's an NBA player. I have no idea who.
Speaker 9 (28:21):
Had a worst debut, Russell Westbrook with the Nuggets or
Chris Paul with the Spurs.
Speaker 1 (28:27):
Oh, CP three, we see now, Manzi is going to
get defensive.
Speaker 7 (28:29):
Now I am going to get defensive.
Speaker 1 (28:31):
He loves CP three, but yes I do. He's a heartbreaker, MONSI.
He broke your heart. He broke my heart.
Speaker 2 (28:37):
I was there when he against the Rockets, when they
blew that a fourteen point lead in the fourth quarter
of Game five.
Speaker 1 (28:44):
I think it was.
Speaker 7 (28:44):
I think that's I think it was Game five. Oh,
I remember the game.
Speaker 2 (28:47):
I think James harden't even play in the freaking fourth
quarter that game for the Rockets.
Speaker 1 (28:51):
He was a top player.
Speaker 2 (28:52):
It was Corey Brewer and Josh Smith. I will never
forget the names Corey Brewer and Josh Smith. But CP
three didn't play well.
Speaker 9 (29:00):
It's pretty close as to who was worse for in
their debut. It is pretty close because CP three it
was minus minus twenty one plus minus.
Speaker 1 (29:08):
That's not good.
Speaker 9 (29:09):
He played more minutes than Westbrook, but he was He
was one for six from the field with three points,
but he had eight assists.
Speaker 7 (29:17):
Westbrook didn't really seven rebounds too for CP three.
Speaker 9 (29:20):
Okay, yeah, so I mean.
Speaker 7 (29:22):
Yeah, that plus minus can be deceiving. Okay, let me
tell you.
Speaker 1 (29:27):
Let me let me tell you something here. The way
it works here is if it helps your argument, you
use it. Of course, it doesn't help your argument you
don't use exactly.
Speaker 6 (29:33):
So that's why I am going to tell you it's
not good because it's.
Speaker 2 (29:37):
All exactly like all statistics, right, you just if it
helps your argument, you go with it, and if it
doesn't help your argument, you.
Speaker 1 (29:43):
Throw it out exactly. And you can come up with
a stat for anything. That's the beauty of it.
Speaker 7 (29:47):
That is the beauty of it.
Speaker 2 (29:48):
So you played a sound bite that caught my attention, Monsie.
It was from Sean McVeigh talking about Puka Nakula play.
Speaker 1 (29:55):
Can you play that again?
Speaker 9 (29:57):
Here?
Speaker 1 (29:58):
Yes?
Speaker 4 (29:59):
Here?
Speaker 7 (29:59):
It is the winningest coach. Now, by the way, for.
Speaker 1 (30:02):
The round, Holy John Robbinson. That man man all right,
he had shown that he was ready for that performance.
And this guy's mindset, his mentality. He's a war daddy.
He's a still Yeah, that's it right there, war daddy.
I love. But I like that. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (30:17):
So I was like, I'd heard that before. I'd heard
that in years of war daddy. And I looked it
up and that is according to what I found. I
love history of words and phrases, and so war daddy
is a phrase that goes back to the nineteen fifties
to a daddy, you're like a junior college football coach
(30:37):
in Mississippi, Harold T. White supposedly coined the phrase war daddy.
Speaker 1 (30:44):
Interesting. I like that. I'm gonna use that. I'm gonna
I'm gonna use war daddy. Still, I'm gonna get that in.
I could throw that in my lexicon of Andy's while
that guy's a ward daddy. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (30:53):
Yeah, I'll get more better ratings in the South, you know,
below the Mason Dixon line.
Speaker 1 (30:58):
We'll get better ratings, downloads and it'll be it'll be great.
Speaker 2 (31:02):
And congratulations to all my friends, Lance the bus driver, Ernestco,
all the guys in the Bay Area, because San Francisco
is now home to the last place team in the
NFC West. Congratulations to the forty nine ers. They are
in last place in the NFC West.
Speaker 1 (31:20):
Isn't that a shame in that? Man? What a bummer?
Hate it? Hate it? Hate it? And the Green Bay Packers.
Speaker 2 (31:28):
Now, if the Packers win this weekend, they play Jacksonville,
they are favored on the road. If the Packers win
that game, the Vikings will move down another spot.
Speaker 1 (31:38):
They'll be behind both the Lions.
Speaker 2 (31:40):
And the Packers, assuming the Lions don't, you know, poop
the bed and all that, but the Vikings will move
down further in your NFC North standings.
Speaker 1 (31:50):
Do you like them? Yeah? Very dramatic, yes, all right?
Ton out for the who am I? Game? And here
we go. You can answer this on X at Bay

Nature Boy says, count me in as a Clipper fan,
since there will be a time soon when Lebron will
nuke the Lakers and cause them to be the worst
NBA team in town. When the Lakers have been the
worst NBA team they won a championship since Kobe Bryant
played there, They've been the worst team in LA over
the last decade. Everyone knows Basketball knows that absolutely. Fox
(33:41):
spocks Weed writes in from Morgan.
Speaker 2 (33:42):
He says, I spent eleven years in the Army, and
I was an officer who should know these things. However,
I have not ever heard article eighty three until Ben
just mentioned it. Kudos to Ben for his knowledge of
the Uniform Code of the Military Justice.
Speaker 1 (33:57):
Yes, well, I looked that up years ago. Go and
that's that's about. If you don't ask me any other
questions about military justice. That's the only article I know.
That's it. I know nothing else about military justice. That's
all I know. Who else do I? Let's see Jason says, wait,
Chris Paul is still in the NBA. I'm doing load
management from the NBA right now, eh. I I'll watch
(34:19):
if there's nothing else going on. But there was a
football game, so I watched that. I flipped over once
the football game ended.
Speaker 2 (34:26):
I didn't want to hear what Richard Sherman had to
say and those other boobs on Amazon. So I went
over to the basketball and watched it, and I.
Speaker 1 (34:33):
Was not entertained. I was not And see, all right,
here's the who am I game? Again? For those of
you late to the party, going back to three, that's
basically a generation to go.
Speaker 2 (34:43):
I am the NFL's most profitable coach for gamblers against
the spread on extended rest, meaning coming off a bye week.
Speaker 1 (34:52):
That is the question. What's the answer?
Speaker 2 (34:54):
Dustin's going with Pete Rose Bud Kilmer from og Art
Puffin Nature Boy says it's Bob Costas red Eye that
that is the answer. Basketball Hall of Fame super fan
Spike Lee is the answer. Did my guy Clipper Darryl
I think they put a plaque.
Speaker 1 (35:13):
Of him up at the Basketball Hall of Fame. Somebody
told me that. That's what I heard. Yeah, we're like
a photo of him or something like that. I don't
think he's in the Hall of Fame, but they put
like a photo of him fans.
Speaker 7 (35:23):
Yeah, it's like a fan section.
Speaker 1 (35:25):
Something like that. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (35:26):
MC Hammer from Cowboy Killer, that's the relevant name. Man
among men from Green Bay Gobbler. Who else do we have?
Ward Daddy Mallor from Malor Property. Yeah, that's a see
that's good. A little too much gray in the beard there,
but I like that Ward Daddy Malord. I might have
to save that photo. Very nice of you to come
up with that. Who else we have?
Speaker 1 (35:46):
Katy Perry who is forty today? No kidding, not Katy
Perry forty. Who else you have? Eddie?
Speaker 2 (35:50):
That's some my Late Night drug tester Eddie Montana from

from David in Ohio, although his love is in Pittsburgh.
The Nancy from Nightmare on Elm Street guests by Milkman

Speaker 1 (36:11):

Speaker 2 (36:15):
All time favorite NFL coach Dave Campbell. You remember Dave
Campo Lorraino when he was coaching.
Speaker 7 (36:21):
Oh yeah, he's one of my favorite coaches.
Speaker 1 (36:23):
What team did he coach?
Speaker 7 (36:24):
The one with the balls?
Speaker 2 (36:26):
Yes, they all had balls, a lot of balls, big balls.
Speaker 1 (36:30):

Joe he killed two people?
Speaker 2 (36:46):
I ah see here, MONSI, do you have an answer
again to who am I game? Going back to three
on the NFL's most profitable coach for gamblers against the
spread coming off extended rest, not.
Speaker 7 (36:58):
Even a little bit. But my guess is Bill Belichick?
Speaker 1 (37:01):
Bill Belichick? All right?
Speaker 5 (37:02):
Is it?
Speaker 1 (37:02):
Bill Belichick? Is that the answer? No, it is incorrect.
Speaker 2 (37:06):
The correct answer is the rotn coach of one Lorena's
favorite NFL team.
Speaker 1 (37:12):
You know who the coach of the Cowboys is, right, Lorena?
Speaker 7 (37:14):
Oh yeah, it's that Jeff guy.
Speaker 1 (37:16):
That's right. Mike McCarthy, that's right, Mike McCarthy.
Speaker 9 (37:20):
Is it?
Speaker 1 (37:20):
Answer? Now?
Speaker 2 (37:26):
Keep in mind most of that was with Aaron Rodgers
and the Green Bay Packers. But thirty eight, twenty three
and three against the spread. That is the top record
in the NFL since three The Cowboys are coming off
of bye week, but they are playing the forty nine

Speaker 4 (02:52):
Shoreb Our lead this hour from so Col so Far Stadium,
as our friend Helmet Man calls it, better known to
everyone Else's Sofi Stadium in the hood in Inglewood. That
was the ballroom for the Pigskin Sore, a dance party
(03:13):
that kicked off.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
Week number eight of the NFL season. Justin Jefferson and
the Big Bad Minnesota Vikings after that great start, they
did lose back on Sunday to the Lions, but trying
to get back in the win column a short week
and Justin Jefferson going against Cooper Cup remember him, Yeah,
he used to be good and now he's playing again.
(03:37):
He hadn't played in some time, but he's back. And
you had Al Michaels driving down from Brentwood down the
four h five over to Inglewood and call the game.
Kirk herb Street flew in and they had to call
on Amazon. Now, I'm not sure if you watch this
game or not. It was really much else to watch,
so maybe you watched nothing. I don't know, but we
(03:59):
watched so you would not have to. And Cooper Cup
delivered as.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
He had a touchdown.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
In his return and Poka Nakua also played and he
didn't get in the end zone, but he had one
hundred and six yards on seven catches in the Rams
surprise the Vikings thirty to twenty the final in the
Thursday night game, Matthew stafford his name in trade rumors
the last couple of days, two hundred and seventy nine
yards passing four touchdowns. He had the obligatory interception, and
(04:33):
the Rams get out of last place in the NFC West.
They are three and four on the season, as they're
a game under five hundred. That terrible Ram team, very
similar to last year, got off to a bad start.
Now they're working their way back into contention. Or are
they working their way back into contention? So the better story, though,
(04:57):
is in the losing locker room. The previous unbeaten Viking
I have now lost two games in the span of
a couple of days. So let us discuss the question
who gets the blame for Sam Donald's Vikings stumbling and
bumbling and stubbing their toe against the Rams. So I've
gotten clock, weather forecast, and remote control, and we will
(05:24):
tie all of these things together and we are going
to make a pinata, which is what the Vikings were
in this game, a pinata, and the Rams were at
the kids' base, at the baseball bat, the kids party.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
They were swinging away, all right.
Speaker 2 (05:37):
So to answer the question, we love playing the blame game,
who gets the blame? Juicy Lucy for Sam Donald and
the Minnesota Vikings. Well, the Viking ship. I studied the
Vikings when I was the Viking ship would stink from
the quarterback down.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
You read that in all the educational books, from the
quarterback down. So we'll start.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
Where was Sam Donald who came out. He saw the
beginning of the game, and he was weaving magic at
the beginning of the It looked like he was back
at San Clemente High School in the OC or at
usc taking on Oregon State or Stanford the way that
Donald was just torching the ram defense, cooking with gas
(06:21):
in the first quarter. Now, I finished with ninety seven
yards in the first quarter, two touchdowns, no interceptions. And
I had people that I know in my circle who
are I call them a holes. They're called trolls, and
they were texting me as I was enjoying the game,
and they were trying to bust my balls at Sam
Donald blows or the Rams blow and Donald's great.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
And blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. Anyway, So something.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
Happened though, and I know when it happened. I don't
know why it happened. I'm not sure how it happened,
but it happened at the end of the first intermission,
the first intermission, that is when Sam Donald became punched
the clock guy, and he just punched the clock. And
(07:08):
it was a minimum day, a minimum day for Sam Dartal.
How do we know it's a minimum day because Donald
was the Jets version of Sam Donald the rest of
the game. Now, what do I mean by that? He
sucked at a time you cannot suck. He did the
bare minimum. The Vikings only scored six points a couple
(07:29):
of field goals after that first quarter onslot and the
evidence is overwhelming. It's direct evidence. Darnald attempted seventeen passes
after the first quarter final forty five minutes of the game.
He was ten of seventeen, no touchdowns, no interceptions, a
passer rating of eighty six point one. And if you
look at the last three weeks and Sam Donald now,
(07:53):
the numbers have not been there, they have not been there.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
And this is a spot for the Vikings. I know
it's a short week, I trust me.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
I watched every Ram game and the Rams have a
bunch of Mattadors on defense, Ole ole ole, Ole, twenty
fifth in scoring defense, come into this game twenty sixth
in total defense, and they bottled up the Vikings after
the first quarter.
Speaker 1 (08:19):
That should not happen. I'm happy it did, but that
should not happen now.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
On the other hand, as we continue to unravel what
took place in this game, what the hell happened to
Brian Flores in the Viking defense? Statistically a handicap a
game like this, and in many key defensive categories, the
Vikings had a top ten defense in some categories, they
had a top five defense statistically coming into this game. Well,
(08:45):
what happened was a shot to the solar plexus, a
gut punch. Because the Rams got their guys back, Cooper
Cup and Puka Deakua and Minnesota, they had the Island
Life Blue short week travel all the excuses. What was
me they were the B word bedraggled is what they were.
(09:09):
Right short week weather weather forecast has changed. The magic
wand has been lost in Minnesota, and they are right now.
If you look at the weather forecast in the Twin
Cities for the Vikings, there's a lot of purple haze
over the Vikings.
Speaker 1 (09:24):
They were rattled.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
It was a slack jawed performance. Nine penalties and the
Rams ended up getting extra five first downs by penalty.
Speaker 1 (09:37):
Now, some of you seemed convinced that this is.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
All rigged and that the NFL wanted the Rams to
win in the Vikings to lose, And we'll get to
this more later.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
I'm not gonna do right now.
Speaker 2 (09:50):
But the face mask called the Vikings were down by eight,
Sam Donald was clearly the Roland Ram players tackle them
in the end zone for safety. But it was a
a face mass penalty that the three blind referees did
not see. But that would not If you think Sam
Darnold was going to lead the Vikings down after sucking
for the entire rest of the game and not only
(10:12):
get a touchdown but then a two point conversion, you
are bonkers. Okay, you're a loser. You're a loser. And
but to me, the story here is the Viking defense.
The Rams got their guys back, and that was like
a bad navy. They gave up yards by land, by air,
and by sea. Kyrone Williams, who's a really good running back,
the Rams got him in the middle rounds out of
Notre Dame ninety seven yards on the ground. Matthew Stafford
(10:35):
averaged over eight yards per pass attempt. I mean he
did have an interception, but he always has one. It
was an all around frazzled effort by Minnesota. Now the
other side, how does this win change things for Sean McVay.
Speaker 1 (10:50):
And the Rams?
Speaker 2 (10:52):
So this is a massive I don't think we can
understate this. And I don't want to be the shock jock,
And why would I want to be that. Those guys
get paid a lot of money.
Speaker 1 (10:59):
I don't. But here's my position on this.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
Okay, the Rams, How does this win change things for
Sean mcvay's Rams. They grab the remote control, Okay, they
grab the imaginary remote control and they hit the pause button.
Speaker 1 (11:12):
They pause live TV is what they're doing.
Speaker 2 (11:15):
Okay, Because here's why we are eleven days away from
the musical chairs stopping the game of musical chairs, and
the music will stop in eleven days.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
That's the trade deadline, right.
Speaker 2 (11:27):
The Rams in this game look like a legit NFC contender.
They had Cooper Cup, they had Pookin de Coula, and
this sets up the showdown in Seattle week nine. If
the Rams can muster up a win over a pretty
(11:49):
mediocre Seattle team and get back to five hundred, then
the move here for the Rams would be to abstain.
Speaker 1 (11:58):
From trading Cooper Cup or.
Speaker 2 (12:00):
Matthew Stafford or any of these guys. You never throw
away a season, especially not now, especially not now.
Speaker 1 (12:08):
If you look out at the serengetti in.
Speaker 2 (12:11):
The NFC and all the wide open land there, the
forty nine ers are bleary eyed and their weather beaten.
The Vikings appear to be bush whacked or should I
say darnald whack. The last couple of games, Seattle's got
Geno Smith. To any team with Gino Smith you cannot
take seriously.
Speaker 1 (12:28):
The Eagles, you have to say, there's something there, but
they still have a glitch. The Falcons you're not really
feeling it because of Kirk Cousins and the Packers okay,
maybe the packers, but you feel like there's still some
fungus there on the cheese. There's still something rotting with
(12:50):
the packers. It is the Ben Malord Show.

happened again. It's a behind the scenes story that nobody
else has. None of our competitors have it. We're the
only show that has this story. We will give you
the details on this. It is a shocking story and
(13:56):
you're you're not gonna believe what I'm gonna tell you
because it's wild and crazy on every level.
Speaker 1 (14:04):
And we will investigate that.
Speaker 2 (14:06):

Speaker 1 (14:53):
Thank you Manzi. As we are rolling through the wee
hours of the morning here be here all night into
the World Series. Very funny.
Speaker 2 (15:05):
Then as much momentum as the the padres. Because I'm
not I think I saw this correct. I was looking
at some photos on social media and Fernando Tatis had
a lot of momentum when he was going into the
water there swimming.
Speaker 1 (15:20):
He was doing a cannon ball had a lot of
momentum there.
Speaker 2 (15:22):
And Manny Machado, Oh, man, Manny, he was actually he
was throwing a coconut. He was at an exotic island.
He was throwing a coconut like he was thrown at
Dave Roberts. It was it was interesting. It hopped, it hopped.
It wasn't a great throw by Machado, but it's pretty
nice there. Matt the Warrior Raider Tom Brady rose Fan
says the Rams were in the driver's seat for the wind,
(15:44):
but holy hell, that missed face mask robbed.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
The Fightings of a chance to come back.
Speaker 2 (15:50):
All right, Well, Matt's just a troll. He's absolutely a troll.
And this is a great tell. And I like it
because anybody that is reaching out to me saying, oh,
the Vikings had a great chance to come back and
win the game, you clearly don't either. Maybe you're blind
and death and all that, and you're just just stupid.
Speaker 1 (16:13):
I mean it's possible, you know, dumb, all those things,
stupid questions, just stupid people. Let's see here.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
Sam Donald at the end of the first quarter stopped playing.
I think he went down to San Clemente to go surfing,
do a little night surfing in San Clemente. He stopped playing,
so the Vikings took over. After a forty one yard punt,
Minnesota started first and ten at their own five yard line,
(16:41):
so they had to go. If my math is correct here,
I'm using a mal of math, they'd go ninety five yards.
There was a minute forty six on the clock and
there were no timeouts. Okay, so first pass incomplete, so
it's second down and ten. Donald gets sacked in the
end zone. They did have his face mask and they
(17:01):
call the safety. So at that point it was one
for two on the clock. Vikings would have had the ball.
What the twenty yard line, fifteen yard penalty, twenty yard
line still needing a touchdown and the two point.
Speaker 1 (17:15):
I mean, there's no debate that the game is over.
Speaker 2 (17:18):
Sam Darnold was die die diarrhea after the first quarter.
Speaker 1 (17:23):
Let's just call like it is here. Yeah, well, slim
Tim checks in from the Oregon Trail. He says, blazing
one up at work, Ben, I missed your voice last night.
Glad you were back. Thank you, Yeah, thank you. Tim.
Speaker 2 (17:36):
Dad Gummett the schmuck checks in. He's listening Derek in
Buffalo the Bill's Monster. Part of Bill's Mafius is the
Rams winning helped the Buffalo Bills they stay relevant and
don't trade Cooper Cup to the Chiefs, well, not yet.
If they lose to Seattle, watch out. One other note
(17:57):
from Bill's Monster Derek. He says, who will play more
in the NBA this season? Kawhi Leonard or Bronnie James.
Speaker 1 (18:05):
Yeah, Kawhi Leonard has sucked the joy that I once
had for the NBA out of my life. That is
the power.
Speaker 2 (18:14):
I spent my entire childhood, my adult life enjoying NBA basketball.
Speaker 1 (18:21):
I watch it now more for.
Speaker 2 (18:23):
Work than anything else. I do not fight it appealing.
I do not fight it exciting. I do not find
it dramatic. I find it painful.
Speaker 1 (18:31):
Okay, do you understand I think, Manzi, you would agree
with me, right, I hear you.
Speaker 7 (18:35):
Laughing because I understood it so much.
Speaker 1 (18:39):
Yes, I was so I was so excited, Moncy, when
the Clippers got Kawhi Leonard, I said, my dreams have
come true. No, They've got the superstar.
Speaker 2 (18:48):
And it has been nothing but him using mouthfeasance since
he got to the Clippers.
Speaker 1 (18:53):
It is unbelievable. And they signed him to another contract.
It's like they can't get rid of him. And I
don't understand if he was if he was in the military,
they'd use Article eighty three for malingering and he'd be
kicked out of the military. But he got a new contract.
Speaker 7 (19:11):
Yeah, no, Ben, I don't get it. But you know what,
I'm the stupid one. I'm the stupid one.
Speaker 1 (19:15):
Hope.
Speaker 6 (19:15):
No, still so stupid.
Speaker 1 (19:18):
No, can't do it being a Clippers fan.
Speaker 6 (19:21):
Maybe you're right, thank you this, that's what you chime in,
Thank you for that.
Speaker 7 (19:25):
Yeah, I just still have hope. I still have hope,
and I'm the stupid one.
Speaker 2 (19:30):
Well, I would like to point out that all those
idiot trolls, the Purple and Gold trolls, the historians, well
the Clippers.
Speaker 1 (19:36):
Have no one's gonna be there. There's no Clipper fans.
I don't know. I saw a packed arena with something
a Clipper fan, right, I mean, i'd say pretty good, right.
I don't know where they all come from, zi where
they all paid actors? And then you don't know.
Speaker 7 (19:48):
Those are real fans because I wasn't going to Englewood
on night number one. You know what, I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (19:52):
No, no, no. I considered it actually had a lea too.
Speaker 7 (19:55):
I considered it.
Speaker 1 (19:58):
Like a head cold. I'll go on a night when
they play like Sacramento and no one cares. Yeah like that.
Speaker 2 (20:03):
Yeah, because Sacramento is no fans, So I'd do something
like that, you know, that would be my move. But yeah,
Kawi Leonard thing just it just drives me nuts.
Speaker 6 (20:11):
Man.
Speaker 1 (20:12):
This is this is.
Speaker 2 (20:13):
Like the curse. You know, be careful what you ask for,
Be careful what you ask for. They get the guy
they wanted, and it's just been bungled ever since. Got
to hate that bait.
Speaker 1 (20:23):
It sucks in my opinion, that suck. That's right, coach Moore.
Speaker 2 (20:26):
Eugene in Chicago rights since says Ben, why did your
rams grab Sam Donald's helmet like that?
Speaker 1 (20:32):
Donald could have had whiplash after that. Take that, Eugene.
It's not powderpuff football. Eugene.
Speaker 2 (20:37):
You're you're in Chicago. You're supposed to be a tough guy.
Thought guys in Chicago would tough.
Speaker 1 (20:41):
Come out you just you're.
Speaker 2 (20:41):
A troll masshole. Mickey writes in from the Commonwealth. He says,
you lied after your trip to Boston. You said you
had no days off. Nonetheless, welcome back. I did say that,
and that was not a scheduled day off. That was
called the sick day, which I never take. By the way,
I have like ten years of sick time. I could
get sick and sick for ten years and I would
(21:02):
the company would have to pay me.
Speaker 1 (21:03):
I don't take share.
Speaker 6 (21:04):
I know.
Speaker 7 (21:05):
I was just say, you share sick days.
Speaker 1 (21:07):
Yeah, I'll give you some. I don't care a couple
of bucks. I'll give you some sick days.
Speaker 2 (21:10):
But no, I mean I had, I had. I'll explain
it all on my podcast. How about that.
Speaker 1 (21:15):
I there's there's a tease on my play Now, speaking
of drama, here, the streets are talking, and there is
some show drama here. We're trying to figure.
Speaker 2 (21:24):
Out, like Eddie's not here, he's not sick, He's perfectly fine.
Eddie's perfectly fine. So is there some kind of rebellion?
Like I was sick, I I'll explain the garlic and
all that. I had some other things going on, so
I had a legitimate reason. And I told my wife,
I said, I don't want to take a sick day
even though I'm sick. She said, what's the place that
(21:44):
sick day, I said, I don't want to do it.
I never take sick.
Speaker 1 (21:48):
I work.
Speaker 2 (21:48):
I've had laryngitis, I've done the show. I burned my
tongue a couple of weeks ago. I did the show
a couple of years ago. I remembery, I didn't burn
my toe. Well, actually I burned my tongue couple weeks so.
I bit my tongue a couple of weeks ago. My
tongue a couple of years ago. I had a lisp, but
I still did. I still did the show because no
one listens. I did the show with laryngitis. I did
the show with a lisp.
Speaker 1 (22:07):
So I figured, Okay, I can do the show with
like a head cold and all that. But I chose
I like.
Speaker 8 (22:12):
When I lose my voice A sexy voice, right, you
know it's all sexy. Last year I sang a Christmas
song with it like that.
Speaker 7 (22:18):
Oh yeah nice.
Speaker 2 (22:19):
Oh it drives me nuts, man, because I go up
and down with my voice, and if my voice is
not strong, I can't go up and down.
Speaker 1 (22:25):
And I feel like I feel like such a loser,
and I hate it.
Speaker 2 (22:29):
I cannot say now I do like it when I
have just that little Tinge where I like when I
did the Autumn Wind as a Raider, I was coming
off a little bit of an illness, and it made
me sound very masculine, and I sounded like, you know,
a man among men, you know, head and shoulders by bread,
and so that made me feel good. But I don't
normally sound like that. It sucks and so but anyway,
(22:51):
I'll get to that more later, but get.
Speaker 1 (22:53):
To the news here.
Speaker 2 (22:54):
This is wild the Naked City, right, more tales from
the Naked City.
Speaker 1 (22:59):
And a little Birdie told me.
Speaker 2 (23:02):
Is it true that a certain certain Fox Sports radio
employee who I will not name. I will not name,
took a night off from the radio show to attend
a random regular season NHL game between two crap bag
(23:23):
teams and failed to mention that's why this person did
not show up to work developing hot dot dot dot.
I will not say the guilty. The initials may be EG.
That's all I will say. That's all I will say.
Man Man Alive.
Speaker 5 (23:45):
Be sure to catch live editions of the Ben Meller

Speaker 7 (23:56):
The hockey year he won, his King's won. They beat
the Sharks three to too.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
And you get did he actually get to play for
the Kings? Is that why he took the night off?
Was he a net for the Kings?
Speaker 7 (24:05):
I hope so? And guess what.
Speaker 6 (24:06):
There is a Jets team that is undefeated that happens
to be on the ice. The Jets beat the Crack
in forty three and overtime, So those Jets are seven ms.
Speaker 7 (24:15):
So at least there's that.
Speaker 1 (24:17):

Oh?
Speaker 6 (24:22):
Yes, yes, the Seattle Crack. Incorrect, And isn't it the
Winnipeg Jets. Winnipeg Jets there?
Speaker 1 (24:29):
Fun fact? Do you know which province of Canada?
Speaker 7 (24:32):
Of course I don't.
Speaker 1 (24:35):
Fun fact that is in beautiful Manitoba. And my one
of my old radio.
Speaker 2 (24:39):
Friends, I used to do a radio spot in Toronto
and he got an afternoon show in Winnipeg. So I
appeared on sports radio in Winnipeg, which is the largest
city in Manitoba. Fun fact, the more you know, Yeah,
but he doesn't do right, he got let go, so
he's out of radio now.
Speaker 1 (24:56):
My friend Rick. I don't know what he's doing now,
but he's no longer in the business.
Speaker 2 (24:59):
And it's a long time ago. But not a lot
going on in Winnow fire cheap hotels though. You can
get a hotel for like a hundred bucks, you know,
a good hotel for a hundred bucks. In Wenesday they
have some museums there. I've never been to Winnipeg, but
I wouldn't mind going. I mean, i'd be okay with that.
Would you want to go to Winnipeg?
Speaker 7 (25:15):
Sure, I've never been to Canada at all. No, so
I just I want to get there for sure.
Speaker 1 (25:20):
I've been back riding, Yeah, fake Canada. I was in
Niagara Falls, which is across you know that you've been,
like in Buffalo, they have Niagara Falls. You cross, there's
a bridge and you're in Canada. So I walked over
and I was like, this is the same as America,
except they used different money.
Speaker 2 (25:36):
And then when I was in a few months ago
and I was doing stuff for the TV show, we
were in Boston. We drove up to see Arnie in Burlington, Vermont,
and we were going to go to Montreal, which is
like Arnie lives like an hour and a half from Montreal,
which was like like not even really Canada's like being
in France or something.
Speaker 1 (25:50):
But I didn't have my passport.
Speaker 2 (25:52):
I don't have a passport, so I have to I
have to update my passport, so I couldn't go.
Speaker 7 (25:55):
Oh that sucks.
Speaker 1 (25:56):
Yeah, it was a bummer.
Speaker 6 (25:57):
You're supposed to like new year passport, like a year
before it expires.
Speaker 1 (26:02):
Yeah, it's been a lot longer than that. I'm not. Yeah,
I looked that you're an international traveler. I know you
go to Oakland. I did that, which is very.
Speaker 7 (26:14):
Yes, we did. We had a good time.
Speaker 2 (26:16):
Was it like, were you sitting Shiva? Were you like,
was it the nine days of Morning? Were you were
you an A's fan?
Speaker 6 (26:21):
No, we just wanted to see, you know, the Oakland
Coliseum and one game before the A's were moved, and I.
Speaker 7 (26:27):
Like, we had a good time. We had a good time.
Speaker 1 (26:29):
Yeah, I saw the video.
Speaker 6 (26:30):
Yeah, I thought we were gonna be the only fans there,
but there there was some fans. I thought I was
gonna be able to like yell at Julio Rodriguez, you know,
and that he was going to hear me. But it
wasn't like that.
Speaker 1 (26:38):
That was quite the That stadium terrible.
Speaker 6 (26:41):
Yes, I thought it was a little homie, you know, dated, dated,
but I liked it.
Speaker 8 (26:47):
I like, yeah, Dodger Stadium like girl, though, So how
did it compare in reality?
Speaker 7 (26:52):
I mean, no, Dodger Stadium's the best.
Speaker 6 (26:54):
Is the third oldest stadium in baseball. You wouldn't even
be able to tell that, you know what I mean.
Speaker 7 (26:58):
Like, it's there's so much cheese, so it's just it's different.
I just thought it was homie and I was like, oh,
it's cute, you know.
Speaker 1 (27:05):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (27:05):
The worst stadium I was ever in, not that I've
been to Oakland before, but the worst.
Speaker 1 (27:09):
One was Shase Stadium. That was a absolute turd bowl.
Chase Stadium, My god, was that place terrible and that
fortunately it's gone now so they don't have it where
they got a new years ago, they got a new
stadium anyway.
Speaker 3 (27:21):
Fun fact, fun fact, fun fact, fun fact, fun fact,
fun fact, fun fun fact.
Speaker 2 (27:27):
Now you know it's not my style, as Tony Bruno
used to say, to pile on anybody, but Russell Westbrook. Now,
my friend Monzi said that Westbrook wasn't that bad. But
I'm gonna give you the rest of the story Russell
Westbrook and his Nuggets day.
Speaker 1 (27:39):
I guess not his debut, right, this is the second game?
Speaker 7 (27:41):
Was this the second game? First game?
Speaker 1 (27:44):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (27:45):
Yeah, it was a first game, all right. So he
played twenty one minutes. He took ten shots, he was
two of ten. While he was on the court, the
Nuggets were outscored by twenty four points.
Speaker 1 (27:55):
That's my fun fact right there, Russell Westbrook. They lost
the game by fifth team points. While he was out there,
they routes. He had the worst plus minus on the
entire team. And someone named Julian Strather. I have no
idea who that is. I had never heard of that
person before.
Speaker 7 (28:12):
Yes, Julian Strather, Yes, I see him from.
Speaker 1 (28:15):
I don't know who that is. Yeah, apparently, I'm told
he's an NBA player. I have no idea who.
Speaker 9 (28:21):
Had a worst debut, Russell Westbrook with the Nuggets or
Chris Paul with the Spurs.
Speaker 1 (28:27):
Oh, CP three, we see now, Manzi is going to
get defensive.
Speaker 7 (28:29):
Now I am going to get defensive.
Speaker 1 (28:31):
He loves CP three, but yes I do. He's a heartbreaker, MONSI.
He broke your heart. He broke my heart.
Speaker 2 (28:37):
I was there when he against the Rockets, when they
blew that a fourteen point lead in the fourth quarter
of Game five.
Speaker 1 (28:44):
I think it was.
Speaker 7 (28:44):
I think that's I think it was Game five. Oh,
I remember the game.
Speaker 2 (28:47):
I think James harden't even play in the freaking fourth
quarter that game for the Rockets.
Speaker 1 (28:51):
He was a top player.
Speaker 2 (28:52):
It was Corey Brewer and Josh Smith. I will never
forget the names Corey Brewer and Josh Smith. But CP
three didn't play well.
Speaker 9 (29:00):
It's pretty close as to who was worse for in
their debut. It is pretty close because CP three it
was minus minus twenty one plus minus.
Speaker 1 (29:08):
That's not good.
Speaker 9 (29:09):
He played more minutes than Westbrook, but he was He
was one for six from the field with three points,
but he had eight assists.
Speaker 7 (29:17):
Westbrook didn't really seven rebounds too for CP three.
Speaker 9 (29:20):
Okay, yeah, so I mean.
Speaker 7 (29:22):
Yeah, that plus minus can be deceiving. Okay, let me
tell you.
Speaker 1 (29:27):
Let me let me tell you something here. The way
it works here is if it helps your argument, you
use it. Of course, it doesn't help your argument you
don't use exactly.
Speaker 6 (29:33):
So that's why I am going to tell you it's
not good because it's.
Speaker 2 (29:37):
All exactly like all statistics, right, you just if it
helps your argument, you go with it, and if it
doesn't help your argument, you.
Speaker 1 (29:43):
Throw it out exactly. And you can come up with
a stat for anything. That's the beauty of it.
Speaker 7 (29:47):
That is the beauty of it.
Speaker 2 (29:48):
So you played a sound bite that caught my attention, Monsie.
It was from Sean McVeigh talking about Puka Nakula play.
Speaker 1 (29:55):
Can you play that again?
Speaker 9 (29:57):
Here?
Speaker 1 (29:58):
Yes?
Speaker 4 (29:59):
Here?
Speaker 7 (29:59):
It is the winningest coach. Now, by the way, for.
Speaker 1 (30:02):
The round, Holy John Robbinson. That man man all right,
he had shown that he was ready for that performance.
And this guy's mindset, his mentality. He's a war daddy.
He's a still Yeah, that's it right there, war daddy.
I love. But I like that. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (30:17):
So I was like, I'd heard that before. I'd heard
that in years of war daddy. And I looked it
up and that is according to what I found. I
love history of words and phrases, and so war daddy
is a phrase that goes back to the nineteen fifties
to a daddy, you're like a junior college football coach
(30:37):
in Mississippi, Harold T. White supposedly coined the phrase war daddy.
Speaker 1 (30:44):
Interesting. I like that. I'm gonna use that. I'm gonna
I'm gonna use war daddy. Still, I'm gonna get that in.
I could throw that in my lexicon of Andy's while
that guy's a ward daddy. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (30:53):
Yeah, I'll get more better ratings in the South, you know,
below the Mason Dixon line.
Speaker 1 (30:58):

football game, so I watched that. I flipped over once
the football game ended.
Speaker 2 (34:26):
I didn't want to hear what Richard Sherman had to
say and those other boobs on Amazon. So I went
over to the basketball and watched it, and I.

Was not entertained. I was not And see, all right,

up with that. Who else we have?

again to who am I game? Going back to three
on the NFL's most profitable coach for gamblers against the

Is it?
Speaker 1 (37:20):
Answer? Now?
Speaker 2 (37:26):
Keep in mind most of that was with Aaron Rodgers
and the Green Bay Packers. But thirty eight, twenty three
and three against the spread. That is the top record
in the NFL since three The Cowboys are coming off
of bye week, but they are playing the forty nine
Ers this weekend. And as my friend Dick Stocked and

doing a crap bag game on Fox, Stat's tell you
