Here we go. Welcome, It's our nuber three and.

Speaker 2 (00:06):
It is the hour of the Cowboys. They suck, but
they are good for our purposes here doing radio. And
Dak Prescott went on the record recently he wants Mike
McCarthy to remain Cowboys head coach, saying he wholeheartedly believes
in him. How much weight does the endorsement from Dak

(00:27):
Prescott have? And what's your position on Jerry Jones, who continues.

Speaker 1 (00:32):
To tap dance around.

Speaker 2 (00:33):
He's left the door open for Mike McCarthy to return,
but hasn't given him a new contract.

Speaker 1 (00:38):
And we'll go over.

Speaker 2 (00:39):
To college football where Georgia quarterback Carson Beck says that
he doesn't like watching football. Why would he say that
he's an NFL draft prospect. Why would he say he
doesn't like watching football. We'll get to that as well.
We'll do it all and also the Queen of Hearts
will make her appearance this hour.

Speaker 1 (00:57):
It's our number three. That's my quarterback. Well, come in
the beginning of another hour of the Ben Malor Show.

be So our lead this hour is from That's my

(02:27):
quarterback and that's my coach. Our lead, this hour from
Jerry's world. Now the football is bad. The sports talk radio.

Speaker 1 (02:35):
Content machine is good. It is really good. And that's
what I'm worried about. I have four hours.

Speaker 2 (02:41):
A blank canvas every single night to come in and
do talk radio, and I go where the story isn't
much like the news business. If it bleeds, it leads well.

Speaker 1 (02:51):
In football. If it's bad, it's at the very top.
And a lot of noise.

Speaker 2 (02:56):
This week, the Cowboys play the Ben Goals in the
Monday Night game, which is only on Monday Night because
of Bart Simpson. The NFL could not get rid of
that game because they had spent too much time putting
the Simpsons together to a split broadcast. Anyway, a lot
of noise this week has been about the future of
the head coach of the in battled Dallas football team.

Speaker 1 (03:18):
They didn't win on Thanksgiving.

Speaker 2 (03:20):
That if you have been following this subplot, maybe you
have maybe you have it.

Speaker 1 (03:24):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (03:26):
Cowboy quarterback Dak Prescott, who is walking gingerly because of
a medical procedure. Now he believes that coach Mike McCarthy,
the leadership of Mike McCarthy is enough enough where well,
he essentially endorsed Mike McCarthy as they head coached rather

(03:46):
than me tell you what he said, let's go to
the audio tape.

Speaker 1 (03:49):
Here we go.

Speaker 3 (03:50):
I believe in them wholeheartedly. I think he definitely deserves
a chance another another contract. And I had a chance
to coach this team amongst and and kind of I
guess you can say more influence on his terms. Uh
maybe maybe be a good way to say it. But
but I wholeheartedly believe in him. The guys who won

(04:11):
a Super Bowl. I know Jerry's attested to that. There's
not many guys or coaches who have done that, and
to have one that can do it from experience, and
I know how valuable he's been for me.

Speaker 1 (04:23):
Okay, well, that's not no implication. He said it. I hole,
I'm with him wholeheartedly, wholeheartedly deserves a chance another contract.
He said it. I didn't say it. He said it.
There was no implication he said it. There was some
other stuff in there if you parse the words that
we'll get to in a second. But that's the money quote.

(04:45):
So here we go.

Speaker 2 (04:46):
Let's discuss the question as you just heard, Dakota Prescott
wants Mike McCarthy to remain Cowboys head coach, saying he
wholeheartedly believes in him and wants him to have another contract.

Speaker 1 (04:58):
How much weight does this have?

Speaker 2 (04:59):
So I've got at Latin Drama one oh one and
Emmy Winner, and we will combine all of these things
together and we are going to make a delicious honey
mustard sauce. The proper honey mustard wonderful, goes with chicken,
goes with pretzels, just a delicious dip the honey mustard.

Speaker 1 (05:23):
Didn't like it when I was a kid, but I
like it now now.

Speaker 2 (05:25):
My first thought on this to answer the question, how
much weight does Dak Prescott's endorse me of Mike McCarthy carry.
So I did the math on this, and I used
Malard math. So it's about four thousand, five hundred pounds. Now,
how did I come up with four five hundred pounds
of weight? I did the Malo math. That is roughly

(05:45):
how much two hundred and forty million dollars and one
hundred dollars bills would weigh four thousand, five hundred dollars
if you were to get in one hundred dollar bills
two hundred and forty million, which also happens to be
the amount of money that Dak Prescott is getting on
his current contract with the Dallas football team. Now, Jerry Jones,

(06:06):
he forked over the cash he paid the man. Dak
Prescott is injury prone, he is aging, and he is rich.

Speaker 1 (06:16):
Good for him. But when you take a couple of
steps back, and we played the audio for you. You
could hear what Dak Prescott said when you when you
take a couple of steps back. Dak Prescott was speaking Latin.
There's a Latin term.

Speaker 2 (06:29):
Called pro forma, all right, pro forma, which it's a
matter of form, all right.

Speaker 1 (06:35):
And so what is he you mentioned?

Speaker 2 (06:38):
If Dak Prescott had come out and said, well, oh,
this Mike McCarthy's a boob, you know, I'd want him
in an eating contest. I wouldn't want him coaching. Oh man,
Mike McCarthy, he looked really good on television. No, he wouldn't.
He's fat, he'd be bad. Imagine he said that. Imagine, No,
you can't say this. So you got to play it
by the boy. Now, you didn't have to go over
the top. He definitely went over the top. And there

(06:59):
is fear of the unknown.

Speaker 1 (07:01):
For all the shortcomings of Mike McCarthy, there's a phrase
that many of us have learned over our time on
this planet. Better the devil that you know.

Speaker 2 (07:11):
So you know, Mike McCarthy, You make a change, and
things could be better. They could also be much worse
because the new coach might not like Dak Prescott, Sam,
I am, and then what do you do now? The
other part that Dak said that I thought was fascinating,
and he was giving his doors and he said wholeheartedly,
you know, new contract and all that, and then he

(07:33):
said an influence on his terms, which sounds to me
like a shot at Jerry Jones.

Speaker 1 (07:43):
That's what it sounds like to me. I'm parsing the
words here.

Speaker 2 (07:45):
But when Dak's talking about influence on his terms, the
implication is that Mike McCarthy does not have enough power
that things he wanted to do he could not do
because of the GM. Who the GM, Ding Ding ding
dany date? Now, speaking of the GM, staying with that
school of thought, what is your position on Jerry Jones

(08:09):
continuing to keep the door open for Mike McCarthy's return,
but yet not going there. So this is for those
of you in the back of the room, This is drama.
One oh one is what This is the art of
making the insignificant significant. And Jerry Jones is following that

(08:33):
same old screenplay with the Cowboys. And He's talked about
this many times how popular the NFL is because of
the soap opera every day three hundred and sixty five
days a year, and Jerry has said he said this
recently a couple months back. He said, when things are
slow around here, I will stir it up.

Speaker 1 (08:52):
That's what he said. I didn't say it. He said it.

Speaker 2 (08:55):
So in my head, I have that cartoon bubble. You
know what I'm talking about. I have a cartoon bubble
atop of my head. Is on the right side of my.

Speaker 1 (09:04):
Head, there's a cartoon bubble. You can't see me, but
it's I'm trying to show you where it is.

Speaker 2 (09:10):
And in that cartoon bubble, Jerry Jones with a cocktail
in one hand, and with the other hand he's holding
the cocktail and with the other hand he's he's standing
over a boiling cauldron and he's stirring with his right
hand the witch's brew. So he's got the drink in
his in his left hand and then with the right

(09:31):
hand he's.

Speaker 1 (09:32):
Stirring the witch's brew. Is what he's doing here.

Speaker 2 (09:34):
And even though Jerry Jones has said multiple times it
wouldn't be crazy to think that Mike McCarthy could return
for a sixth season, where.

Speaker 1 (09:43):
Has the time gone?

Speaker 2 (09:45):
H And even more after that, he's continued to be
a lame duck twisting in the wind.

Speaker 1 (09:51):
Has not given him the contract. Jerry's the GM, he's
the owner.

Speaker 2 (09:54):
If he wants today, he gets out of bed, he
goes and goes to the shower, he does what he does.

Speaker 1 (10:00):
I don't know. He has a cocktail in the morning.
Whatever he happens to do there, Jerry, I have no idea.

Speaker 2 (10:05):
Maybe he circumcises a mosquito and goes and finds some
glory whole and all that, and then I'll pay Mike McCarthy.
All right, final fun. We now pivot to the rare
and appropriate. Rare and appropriate college football story. What's kind
of an NFL story, but it's a college story. Several

(10:26):
of you who live below the Mason Dixon line wanted
my thoughts on the viral video from Southern Fried Football
Land sec Land.

Speaker 1 (10:37):
In the clip, Georgia quarterback Carson Beck.

Speaker 2 (10:42):
Recently and this guy is considered an NFL prospect, recently
said that he doesn't like watching football. Doesn't like watching football.
He made some comment of it about it being stressful. So,
but anything stressful, you really don't want to do it? Yeah,
just I mean it's stressful, it's you don't want to

(11:04):
do it. No, no, no no. He said that he
can't watch football for fun because it's stressful. And the
way he phrased it, it sounded.

Speaker 1 (11:17):
Like he just doesn't want to watch film.

Speaker 2 (11:20):
So why would he say this? Why would he say so?
It's a great question. Why would you say this? And
I would like to tell Carson Beck, congratulations. You are
an Emmy winner as in mental error, all right. That's
they call him the football Emmy, all right, and so

(11:40):
more it's more of a tennis play unforced error. And
this part likely explains why if you have kept track
of the upcoming NFL Draft, which I do not want
to talk about right now, but I do keep an
eye on this because I know that most of my
life between February and April will be about the NFL Draft,

(12:00):
the same storylines every year, rinse, wash, repeat, and so
I try to get ahead of that by keeping an
eye on the different scouting reports for the top players,
and mostly the quarterbacks, because we pretty much just talk
about quarterbacks and a few receivers and maybe a running
back and offensive lineman, but it's mostly quarterback. And so
if you read the scouting report prior to twenty twenty four,

(12:23):
Carson Beck was projected as a first round pick, some
even said a top ten quarterback in the NFL draft
right now, not in the first round, despite having the
prototypical size, the pocket presence, the skill set of a
first round quarterback. You don't get to Georgia if you're
a stiff and play quarterback. But Beck right now is

(12:44):
not projected to be a first round pick based on
his body of work at Georgia. And it was very
Kyler Murray esque of Carson Beck. Maybe he likes a
call of duty. He could be like Blake Snell. Maybe
you know he's futsing around on the twitch.

Speaker 1 (13:04):
I don't know. But Carson Beck at this point.

Speaker 2 (13:09):
Is projected to be a late second round pick, third
round pick, maybe even a fourth round pick, depending on
how things go after the college football season. But that's
an interesting tale. You didn't have to say that. We
like his honesty, right yeah. He said, I avoid watching
football in my free time. And the ugly truth is

(13:34):
a lot of football players don't like football. They're good
at it. This's been that way for a long time.
We've had some coaches pass through here over the years.
Dennis Green he's dead, but he worked here. Jim Mora,
a couple of other head coaches have passed through Fox Sports
radios hallowed hallways over the years, and a lot of
these guys have said, I mean, there's a long time
ago and there's oh yeah, you know a lot.

Speaker 1 (13:54):
Of our guys they don't necessarily love football. They just
happen to be good at And you know, it was
a way for them, ends to a means right that
they knew they could make a lot of money. They
were in a bad situation possibly, you know, they grew up,
didn't have a lot of money and it was a
way to escape that life and make a lot of money.
And they did it, but they didn't really enjoy it,

(14:18):
and they just did it for the cash. And the
arguments always been you try to find the guys that
are really good and actually like football, because that's what
separates those that get to the next level and succeed
in those that don't. But I digress.

Speaker 2 (14:35):
It is the Ben Mahlord Show. If you like to
comment on anything we just said, anything we talked about earlier,
the reaction heard around the NFL to the punishment, the
adjudication three games suspension, type about earlier did a full
malle monologue. Podcast will be up, but Texans linebacker Aziz
al Shire suspended three games for the hit to Trevor Lawrence.

(14:58):
A full body of work, and Tom Brady made some
comments appearing on Cowhard Sure Show and talked about whether
the NFL should change the punishment for quarterbacks.

Speaker 1 (15:13):
And there you know the way they.

Speaker 2 (15:17):
Approach these these slides and the implication about them sliding
late and whatnot changing the punishment rather than just punishing
defensive players. Eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox Now,

Speaker 1 (22:30):
They only made ten of them. They were selling Batmobile.

Speaker 5 (22:38):
The slaves land of clothes.

Speaker 2 (22:40):
What does one do with a three million dollar batmobile
that you can't actually legally drive on the street. Now,
it is Burrow such a big deal that in Ohio
they'll probably allow him to drive because he's Joe Burrow.

Speaker 7 (22:55):
Well, my thought is, if you have enough money to
waste on one of these. You probably have a can
have property to where you could just drive it around
on your property, right.

Speaker 1 (23:05):
Yeah, yeah, if you're not on the roads, you can
do whatever you want.

Speaker 2 (23:08):
I saw a photo of this. It's he doesn't have
it yet, he's gotta wait. They're making it.

Speaker 1 (23:13):
It's pretty cool, though, I mean there's things, you know,
what if it is as good as what the video,
the clip I saw online, it's it's awesome. Oh, I'd
buy it. You got that kind of cash, you know.

Speaker 5 (23:26):
I mean if I if I did.

Speaker 1 (23:27):
If they had the if you had the money, you
would you would go for it. Yeah, I don't know.
I guess it's a good conversation starter. What you buy.
I bought the batmobile.

Speaker 7 (23:38):
Can I tell you a an old acting story?

Speaker 1 (23:42):
Do you have a batmobile story?

Speaker 5 (23:44):
So story time.

Speaker 7 (23:47):
When I was kind of in the you know, final
stages of auditioning for Liar Liar, they had to have
me meet up with Jim Carrey to make sure that
I got along with him and that he liked me
before or they officially hired me for the role.

Speaker 1 (24:02):
He had a sign off on yes exactly.

Speaker 7 (24:05):
So I went to one of his houses to meet him.
And when I got there, you know, we're doing the
introductions everything, and he asked me, he goes, he goes,
you want to see something really cool? And I was
like yeah, and he's like, I have the Batmobile in
my backyard like in the And I was like what,
because you know he was in Batman Forever, played The Riddler.

Speaker 1 (24:27):
Yeah, and I was like.

Speaker 5 (24:28):
Yeah, I want to see it.

Speaker 1 (24:30):
That's awesome.

Speaker 7 (24:31):
And so we go to his backyard into his like
pool house, which I'm expecting is like you know, some
extra garage, and I go in and it's it's one
of those like kmart twenty five cent batmobile.

Speaker 5 (24:46):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (24:46):
Wow. There was a place over off the one old
one near the Hollywood Bowl, right near barm I don't
think it's there anymore, but it was a lot of
these studios used that to use to make the weird cars,
like if I remember, somebody told me is like night
Writer the original Batmobile, Like they had some of those
cars out in front of the shop. I don't think

(25:09):
it's there anymore, though, I think he moved somewhere else.

Speaker 2 (25:11):
But yeah, the like the original Batman, this Joe Burrows
buying the new updated Batmobile.

Speaker 1 (25:15):
Yeah, for three mili. He's not buying that old nineteen
sixties version of the Batmobile. He's buying the real deal.

Don't look it up.

Speaker 1 (26:25):
All right, Uh, let's see, I'm assuming the A's one.
You're in the Bay area or are you an A's
fan one? They won Man nineteen seventies.

Speaker 9 (26:38):
A's seventy two.

Speaker 1 (26:40):
I've never even heard of this person. Oh really, is
it a backup or something? I mean, I can finish
you guys on it's not a backup.

Speaker 8 (26:48):
Oh he looked it up.

Speaker 1 (26:50):
Yeah, I looked it up. You know, you don't ready know.

Speaker 8 (26:55):
What to know? Wait, the Reds who days? It wasn't
the relief picture of the Reds wanted because Sparky's pictures
all went down in the playoffs and he had minor
league pictures.

Speaker 1 (27:09):
I don't think that. I don't think that's about that.
That's not true, I mean not according to this anyway.
It was the internet. Gene Tennis. Oh, I've heard of
Gene Tennis. Well you are you? You asked the question
that's like the worst trivia question. I mean, what do
you gotta know the answer?

Speaker 8 (27:29):
I'm killing What are you doing?

Speaker 4 (27:31):
Ma?

Speaker 1 (27:31):
I mean, mar, what are you doing? I mean you
gotta know the answer.

Speaker 8 (27:34):
You're gonna call up with a question here?

Speaker 1 (27:36):
I mean I wouldn't have gotten Gene Tennis I would
I would not hold hold, I take a break. I
would have gone like.

Speaker 8 (27:43):
What it was, Bench, he was taken from the back
catcher position and put it first base because he froze
up because of Johnny Bench. He couldn't he had no
move to first and he couldn't get anything.

Speaker 1 (27:54):
But you said some relief picture from the Reds won
the m v P. The A.

Speaker 8 (28:00):
I thought one.

Speaker 1 (28:03):
I know you thought that, But you called up like Bradby,
like you knew me. I mean, come on, that's terrible.
I mean, I love you, but that's a bad job
by you. Come on now. So that's before my time.
But I think the A's in the American League and

(28:24):
the Reds in that period, the big red machine of
the nineteen seventies in the athletics. I guess I'm reading
here that Reggie Jackson Oakland played the series without Reggie
Jackson injured his hamstring and they won without him. Who knew?
I did not know that? Sam? I am all right, Well,
thank you or asking a trivia question you did not

(28:46):
know the answer to. I love that.

Speaker 2 (28:48):
Say hello to blind Scott, and I guess we're gonna
blow off the game. I'm determined we don't have a contestant,
so we'll just blow off the game and we'll do
the game some other time and then we'll have time
for the rain.

Speaker 1 (28:58):
But blind Scott, what's going on? Blind Scott?

Speaker 9 (29:00):
Hey, what's up?

Speaker 1 (29:01):
Ject?

Speaker 9 (29:01):
That was an amateur sports radio called then that guy.
You know, because you do all the trivia, it attracts
people to do stupid stuff like give you trivia, you.

Speaker 3 (29:09):
Know what I mean?

Speaker 9 (29:09):
And that guy was like two sheets to the wind,
so you didn't even know. But dude, I didn't feel
safe last hour when Scratchhof called off. If you got
to go back to the podcast, scratch Off was threatening
someone's life. Like we condemn those people silently on the show,
and we don't give them attention and just encourages them
to do it more. But it's pretty funny, dude. I

(29:30):
turned for you two and I bet Ozzy Osbourne. We
got sober together, me and Ozzy Osbourne. I didn't know
with him though, because they didn't tell me, and he
tried to interact with me and Kramer and I shunned
him because he's like such a dog lover and he
didn't follow the rules. But that's my Oh yeah, one
other thing, too.

Speaker 1 (29:47):
Like wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, time out time. I
assume you went to AA in the Boston area, right, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 9 (29:56):
Because he loves history and that he had a guy
that would bring him around, so he would stay in
Boston like to get away from everybody. So we would
go to the same meeting at the church on the hill.
Ringo Star was there too, and you know they would
say he was there either you never.

Speaker 1 (30:10):
Know, I never you never saw Ringo Star there?

Speaker 9 (30:13):
No, I never seen him, but I know he was there,
and people said it's telling an Ozzie calls himself John,
that's his first name too, and he's wicked tiny, like, uh,
he's a short well, I mean I'm six for two,
so he's like Coop. He's like probably Paul's Coop, but
he's like a Fred. He's frail at tell though. You
can pick him up, you know.

Speaker 1 (30:31):
Yeah, Well you're a big guy, Blant, you know you
you're a big person. You can pick him up. Yeah.

Speaker 9 (30:36):
But the I've been I was going to change my
gender market to X, but I'm worried that they might
be checking id's at the restroom, so I might hold
off on that because there's no X restroom you know
what I mean.

Speaker 1 (30:47):
Yeah, I don't know. I really don't know what you mean.
That guy Slash worked in our building. He wasn't very tall.

Speaker 9 (30:54):
He I know too. I read you know him?

Speaker 1 (30:57):
You you don't know read?

Speaker 9 (30:59):
Remember, dude, I'm interviewed today to be on the Jennifer
Hudson Show. I have like a small group in Autorize
that I travel with to talk about being blind now
and they want to have us on that show, and
I might do that. We might do like the Christmas

Connecticut where you work.

Speaker 2 (31:14):

I used to eat at Bobby V's restaurant there in Stanford,
so funny. I don't eve it's still there. But he
was the mayor I think of Stanford at one point.
Bobby Valentine.

Speaker 9 (31:26):
Yeah, they won't let me, they won't let me call. Yeah,
I know, I know. He invented the sandwich. I have
that sandwich idea for the blind, Mallee sandwich that doesn't
get on your shirt and you can eat while.

Speaker 1 (31:36):
Oh yeah, we got I gotta contact my guy. I
ikes a Mallard militia. Guy owns this big sandwich chain
around the country. He's a fan of the show.

Speaker 9 (31:42):
Can you give me a phone number. I'd like to
chat with him about the show. Like it usually goes
well when I chat with Listen.

Speaker 1 (31:48):
Yeah, I think guy, Well, if you're a long as
you're on your meds, it goes well. But when you
go off the meds, it's a problem. I I gotta
leave it there, but thank you, Blind Scott. It is
