Speaker 1 (00:00):
Here we go.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
Welcome to the second day of January, this Thursday, and
here in our number four. Where are you at on
the Bear's front office, said to be at Loggerheads, worried
about Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson pulling a power play
if you were to get the Chicago gig and use
surp the GM's power. Also, Caleb Williams says the Bears
(00:24):
offensive line isn't bad and many of the sacks are
on him. Many are pooh pooing that. Give me your
school of thought. And Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford had cops
and NFL security inspect his home for week spots in
the many burglaries of star players. Your thoughts on that
as well. We'll get to all of it and more.
(00:46):
Right now here it is. I have a wonderful Thursday.
It's our number four. Time to bear down, if you will,
welcome in the big game of another hour of the
Ben Malar Shows, our first live show of the new year.
(01:09):
As we are beginning yet again in the air everywhere
close by, as we are floating on a cloud, coast
to coast, border to border and beyond, on the vast
and fashionably powerful microphones of fsre ammating live from the
(01:32):
navigation as we circumnavigate the sporting globe. We're broadcasting live
from the tyraq dot Com studios. Tyraq dot com. We'll
help you get there and unmatched selection, fast, free shipping,
free road hazard protection, and over ten thousand recommended in
stars and oh random. Ryan in Carolina impressed by that
(01:56):
tireraq dot com the way tire buying show be. So
I lead this out. We'll get back to the college
football later. We had a route or route depending on
how you learned the word growing up as Ohio State.
The Buckeyes came out and put a can of whoop
(02:16):
ass on Oregon in the one hundred and eleven the
Rose Bowl game in Pasadena. We actually had a competitive
game between Arizona State. They came back late against Texas
but losing in double over the dime despite dominating the stats.
But our lead from the NFL the second city and
(02:37):
we're getting ready to turn out the lots the parties
over on the NFL season. Now for the Bears. I
am old enough to remember. I don't know if you're
as old as I am, but I'm old enough to
remember when the Chicago Bears won the offseason MVP with
their their draft and the front office. The whole thing
was great. Everyone loved the Bears. They were the darlings.
(02:57):
They were set up. They returned to glory for the
Chicago Bears. Wake up the echoes, where have you gone?
Mike Ditka and Walter Payton and the great Chicago Bears
of the past. Well, and then they had to play
the games, and the Bears spent a lot of time
in the front row first class on the vomit comet,
and they fired their coach, Matt Eberflus. So it's been
(03:19):
a lot of noise about who's going to get the
job next. You might have paid some attention to this,
maybe not. The coaching Tara Sel normally starts getting going
in the next couple of weeks or so once the
regular season ends. So a lot of chatter around the Bears.
They think it's the top job in the NFL, and
they have their eye on this hot shot Lions offensive coordinator.
(03:42):
If you haven't been paying attention to that. So if
you have not, the story goes that Lions offensive coinator
Ben Johnson, Ben Johnson, It's tough name. Ben Johnson would
like the Bears job. He wants the Bears job. There
is said to be mutual interests by different factions with
(04:02):
the Bears. But problem. Oh, here's where the drama comes in.
The Bears General manager Ryan Poles has some doubts whether
or not he wants to go down that road. Now,
what are those reservations, you ask? So the story in
the reporting is rather interesting. The GM of the Bears
is concerned that Ben Johnson has gained so much power
(04:26):
despite not being a head coach, that the Lions offensive
coordinator who turned down the Washington job last year, the
former Redskins job now a Ben Johnson. He has so
much control over the next job that he gets that
he will force out the Chicago GM say what, Yeah,
(04:49):
that Ben Johnson has his eye on an entire staff
that he wants to come in, and he has his
eye on a Washington Commander's general manager assistant GM him
someone named Lance Newmark. We don't know who that is,
but apparently he's been around the NFL for a few years,
and Ryan Poles would rather go with someone a little
(05:12):
more reliable in terms of UH. There's a history like
Brian Flores, the Viking defensive coordinator, for example, his name
has been mentioned. So let us discuss the question where
are you at on the Chicago Bears front office said
to be worried about the Lions offensive for enator Ben
(05:33):
Johnson pulling a power play power play if he got
the Bears coaching job. So I've got Ghostbusters, Jack in
the Box, and medieval and we will combine all of
these things together and we will unlock the key to
(05:53):
your mind. Do do do do do do do do?
So to lead off here the analysis, the hypothesis, if
you will, it actually makes some sense. Everything is political,
and much like in the political world is when you
have we have a changing of the guard at the
White House, right, So people are worried about having jobs
(06:16):
and they're concerned about what this all means for them.
Everyone's looking out for themselves. Well, in sports, the normal
protocol is what if you get rid of the coach,
you get rid of the GM that hired the coach.
Unless the GM is an absolute mensa, then you would
keep the GM because the GM knows what he's doing,
and that's the only acceptable route in this case. At
(06:41):
this point in the story, it really is a page turner.
So if you look at the Bears right, the McCaskey
ownership group. The McCaskey ownership Group is trying to combine
the hat Fields and the McCoys, is what they're trying
to do here. And you've got the GM. Ryan Poles
has been there for a few years in Chicago. He
(07:02):
would prefer to hire a friend when in doubt, hire
a friend, or at least rent a friend. That would
be the way to go, right, Rent a friend and
all that. Now, Brian Flores, I don't care how many
stories I read, how many insiders are throwing his name out.
Both Brian Flores and John Gruden are on the natty
list for different reasons because they have active lawsuits against
(07:25):
the NFL. And I know from working in broadcasting, and
I've worked with people that have sued broadcasting companies, they
don't get hired by those broadcasting companies. It's hard for
me to imagine a world where the NFL would give
a head coaching to I realized Brian Flores is already
working in the NFL. But the head coaching thing is
a little bit different, especially a lot different than being
(07:45):
a coordinator. So but my point is this doesn't mean
you can't find somebody else that you know right that
there's another confidant that you can track down. Everyone's friends
with everyone, everyone's in bed with everyone in the end
NFL andmbring somebody in that you trust a little bit more,
and you really have to follow the breadcrumbs. So I
(08:07):
did a minutes long mallor investigation and according to what
I was able to uncover Ryan Poles, the Jam of
the Bears. His agent is Trace Armstrong, a former defensive
player in the NFL. Trace Armstrong also represents Mike McCarthy,
whose contract is up in Dallas after this weekend. Also
(08:28):
Lincoln Riley of SC. That's a tough sell, Lincoln Riley,
but he did coach the hot shot quarterback of the Bears,
Caavib Williams at SC and at Oklahoma. So there's a
bit of a connection that Brian Kelly of LSU from
Baton Rouge with his fake Southern accent. He's available. And
(08:49):
normally what happens is you have an agent, the Jam
has an agent, they hire the coach who has the
same agent. You scratch my back, I'll scratch your back.
And there's a bunch of other scattered around the NFL
as for the issue at hand, the HeLa monster in
the room. If you will here, now, we don't know
(09:10):
if Ben Johnson is going to be a good coach
or not, and you don't know. You might think you know,
but you don't know. And it's obviously much different story
here a coordinator. There have been plenty of coordinators who
have failed as head coaches, many of them with the
Chicago Bears over time. Regardless of that, my advice here
unsolicited professional wisdom, provided free of charge through the airwaves
(09:36):
or the mighty powerful Fox Sports Radio. My advice the
Bears ownership class should follow Egon's wisdom from Ghostbusters. Don't
cross the streams. Do not cross the streams. If you're
held bent on hiring Ben Johnson, just get rid of
Ryan Poles, say bye bye, get out of here. We'll
(09:59):
see you later. Send him in the transfer portal and
start fresh with Ben Johnson and some other Jabbroni as
the GM Now furthermore, staying in the Windy City. Now,
there's a story that caught my attention involving the former
number one pick in the NFL draft, Caleb Williams. And
there's all kinds of stories that have popped up in
(10:19):
recent days about how many times he's been sacked sixty
seven times, So it's more likely than not. The Bears
wrap up their season with the Packers this weekend that
Green Bay will get at least three secs. So he's
going to be in the seventy sack club, the seventy
sack club, Caleb Williams after this weekend. Now the chatter
has been much of it. It's not his fault. He's
(10:42):
just the victim. Caleb Williams is the victim wallowing in victimhood.
It's all the offensive line's fault. The fat guy's fat taming.
It's the offensive line in Chicago, mind you. The Bears
offensive line, if you look at some of the preseason rankings,
was ranked either in the middle or higher up. They
were not considered a bad offensive line. But the numbers
(11:04):
are just horrible. Now. Caleb Williams said that he's the
one that deserves a lot of the blame and that
he said, the stupid connotation behind my offensive line is
a quote. My offensive line being bad is not the truth.
Caleb Williams stated, I've taken a good amount of sacks
that have been my fault. William said, Now, Williams went
(11:28):
on to state that he hates seeing the offensive line
take the blame because of mistakes that he has made
now that has not stopped the noise. So Caleb Williams says,
the Bears offensive line is not bad. Despite the sixty
seven sacks, they're not bad, and many of the sacks
are on him. So give me your school of thought
on this one, all right, So I say, bravo is
(11:52):
what I say. Bravo is what I say. Now you
might dismiss this and say, well, he's just being polite,
that Kayleb Williams is just being the nice guy and
all that, and it's just nonsense. He doesn't really believe that.
That's just what you're supposed to say. And he's following
the guide how to play quarterback for idiots, and he's
just following that. But I say, this is a jack
(12:15):
in the box situation. If you're one of those people,
right as in the old actor Jack Nicholson, who's retired
now living as a recluse in Malibu, that you can't
handle the truth. You cannot handle truth. It's one of
my pet peeves and I have ranted about this sporadically
over the years, but it really does annoy me the
(12:36):
lack of knowledge that football fans have when it comes
to the sack. And I hear it all the time
on this job doing sports radio, and we take calls
and social media and all that that the low information fan,
the uneducated fan, they're the ones that think that the
sack is completely on the offensive line. And we all
(12:59):
agree that the same is worse than an incompletion. But
sacks are a quarterback statistic. They have been that way
for some time. They've always been that way, that the
sack rate ultimately reflects what it reflects the skill set
of the quarterback, meaning right, meaning if you have a
(13:19):
quarterback that makes quick decisions, reads the defense, gets rid
of the football, they will have a moderate or low
sack total. Read the defense, recognize where the ball needs
to go, get rid of it, treat the football like
a hot potato or a live hand grenade, and just
throw the thing and get it out of your hands.
(13:41):
And a lot of times it doesn't mean these offensive
line ratings are bull crap because we've seen this in
years past. I think it was the Indianapolis Colts Andrew
Lucke was getting sacked a lot and if I remember correctly,
it's a few years ago. Obviously hadn't played in a while.
And then they made some light adjustments with Andrew Lucky,
(14:01):
got rid of the ball quicker, same crap bag offensive line.
Suddenly they were one of the highest rated offensive lines
in the NFL because Andrew Luck had made some adjustments. Shocking, right, shocking.
It's amazing how that was all right. Now, last thing
here we head now to the crime blutter. Several stories
while I was away from my post at the watchtower
overlooking the sports landscape, recent wave of burglaries that have
(14:25):
occurred at the home of a high falutant professional athletes.
Now with that said, I read recently that Rams quarterback
Matthew Stafford taking nothing for granted, the Rams quarterback trying
to protect his home. He is invited this happened recently,
(14:46):
invited the cops over and NFL security to go over
his mansion and seeing the weak spots around the mansion
to protect the family home. Now a Rams quarterback, Matthew
Stafford having police and NFL security inspectus home. Your thoughts
on that development, So it's not like shocking or anything like.
(15:10):
You have the resources you would pursue that it makes
a lot of sense. It is a tourism issue though, right,
isn't this what this is all about. The story is
that this is a booming industry in the US over
recent years, that you've got this burglary tourism where people
are coming here and they're you know, gangs or whatever,
(15:32):
and they're targeting people that have money and like to
brag about their money, like professional athletes and whatnot. And
so this is what happens here. But Stafford, he certainly
makes enough money and he's been one of the highest
paid players in NFL history, Matthew Stafford that when he's
playing and he's on the road, he can hire armed
guards outside his palatial estate. There. Now, I recommend these
(15:56):
guys go old school. The greatest thing before guns were around,
the greatest defense system. Let's go back to the medieval times, right,
the medieval times, batting down the hatches. So how did
you protect your home back in the medieval times? All right?
You put up a drawbridge, and the drawbridge goes over
(16:20):
a moat, and in the moat it is filled with crocodiles.
That's medieval security. And very rarely did anyone dare go
in to the moat with the crocodiles, and if they did,
you never heard about it, because the crocodiles had them
for breakfast or lunch or possibly dinner, and that will
(16:41):
certainly be a deterrent for the curse. I just fill
it with like bears and alligators and that would be that,
all right. It is the Ben at Mallard Show. If

Speaker 1 (22:51):
That's well, he.
Speaker 2 (22:52):
Could beat the Lions. The Lions defense. I think you could.
You can throw a couple of touchdowns against the Lions.
Speaker 5 (23:00):
University is a chance to get a Frank pistrip all
the way up to not play them during until section
the third round.
Speaker 2 (23:07):
Well, all the Vikings will do if they win against
the Lions on Sunday is guarantee they will not lose
on wild card weekend. That's the only thing because if
you win, you're the number number line number. If you lose,
you go all the way down to the number five seed.
Speaker 5 (23:25):
I think they're what they're number one seed. So that's the.
Speaker 2 (23:27):
Rest of Wait, now that nobody else has that take,
So you think the Minnesota Vikings would like the number
one seed to have the buy? Nobody else has that.
You're the only one with that take. That's is that
original take?
Speaker 5 (23:38):
I don't know if it's original, but you know she
can't be the first out.
Speaker 2 (23:43):
That's a bold take. The Yeah, amazing.
Speaker 5 (23:47):
Why you know why? I think they're the dirk Horse.
I think they're really not.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
Wouldn't they be the dark Viking? Not the dark Horse?
They're a Viking.
Speaker 5 (23:56):
I think everybody's written them off. I think everybody's written
sure on Donald fact and every.
Speaker 2 (24:10):
Okay, any other Minnesota what about the Twins, any of
the Twins, propaganda, Timberwolves propaganda player that player players the
guy they traded the cups? What guys?
Speaker 5 (24:23):

Just because they have people with them does not make
them not blind.

No, but they have it easier.

This is a roots found should hear? I mean, Lorina,
I see way more like I talked to so many
other fans.
Speaker 6 (27:58):
I don't think you can see anything.
Speaker 2 (28:01):
I can't verify. I've met Scott multiple times of the
year at no Vision.
Speaker 4 (28:05):
I guarant the last Malar meat Grid, I had to
carry my guy dog to the Mallard meat Great because
you didn't want to go.
Speaker 2 (28:11):
That's rather pathetic that your dog would not want to
go to a Mallard meet and greed. That's that's bad.
I know it was raining and stuff, but still.
Speaker 4 (28:19):
But people want to know who this Bill Miller guy is?
Then who is the Philli Bill guy? I go, it's
the same dude, and they no.
Speaker 2 (28:26):
It's not the same guy. This is a profession on
six hundred radio station. You think this is some amateur
show would use the same guy?
Speaker 4 (28:32):
Come on, somebody told me the secret. Take the secret
to the bet show. See Ben is a great host.
It took me years to figure this out, but he
captured you. He's very loud and entertaining all the When
you were on vacation, I got to report that somebody
almost drove off the road into the woods and died.
Speaker 2 (28:46):
Again, Oh, that's unfortunate. Am I taking blame for that?
That somebody drove off the road? That's now? Do you
blas Scott? Do you watch Benny Versus The Penny?
Speaker 1 (28:55):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (28:55):
I did.
Speaker 4 (28:55):
Actually I catched it.
Speaker 2 (28:56):
You guys watch watches Benny versus the Petty Mom?
Speaker 1 (29:01):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (29:01):
I got Tom type of food he said. I said
to Tom, these are two guys that love each other
that are not gay. And I think you can bring
Loraina and just get rid of Tom. That I actually
going to send you anybail about it. Cut Tom out
of the picture.
Speaker 2 (29:16):
Loraina, would you like to replace Looney on the TV show?
Speaker 5 (29:18):
Oh?
Speaker 6 (29:19):
You know, I don't. I don't want to get any
bad blood with.
Speaker 4 (29:22):
Looney rain Do you know about the boob lady that Campbell's.
There's these two ladies that Campbell's. One is the boob
lady and the other is the other lady. They find
it out on Instagram.
Speaker 1 (29:29):
It's great.
Speaker 2 (29:31):
How are you on Instagram? You can't see anything? I
gotta thank you, all right. There's a blind Scott checking
in from the north end.
Speaker 6 (29:37):
I wonder about that too, Ben. Do you think Instagram
reads to them?
Speaker 2 (29:41):
There is a blind Twitters, so there must be blind Instagram.
Speaker 6 (29:44):
I was curious about that too, because yes.
Speaker 2 (29:47):
It's got to be that we don't know, because we don't.
Speaker 6 (29:49):
We're not Did you like my post? How do you
know what I said?
Speaker 2 (29:53):
But if we were in that world, there's different I
think they have different options you can have for those
that are lacking vision. So to'll explain everything. There's the
booty model shaking her booty's down all around right there,
and there's another one and another one no one, all right,
(30:15):
so changing planes, dj Reed? This is kind of funny.
So dj Reed is a defensive back for the Jets,
and this week he admitted he didn't play dumb. He
admitted he does not want to play for the Jets
next year. Now, normally the proper decorum is to pretend
like you do want to play for the team next
year and you're not sure what the fuge rows. But
(30:36):
DJ reads, I just admitted I don't want to be
here next year. I want to go play somewhere else.
Now the tipping tip tip tip tip. Jalen Milroe, the
quarterback for Alabama, had a terrible game in the Crimson
tized loss to Michigan. It was you get a turnover,
you get a turnover, you get a turnover, A lot
of mistakes, a lot of poor throws. And now the
(30:58):
claim is that the reason he sucked at a time
he cannot suck the Alabama quarterback is because he was
tipping the plays that the Alabama quarterback. This always annoys me.
This happens mostly in baseball. A pitcher, starting pitcher will
go out and just get lit off as it always
tipping the pitches. And while that does happen, and it
(31:19):
is legal unless you're the cheating a holes and you
use video equipment things like that, it's just it just
leaves a bad taste in my mouth. And I want
to go back to the Jets. For a second. I
mentioned that DJ Reid admitted he doesn't want to return
to the team. How about Garrett Wilson who claimed all
(31:39):
that noise about him being at loggerheads with Aaron Rodgers
not true, not true? He says, do not believe social media? Okay,
should we believe Keg drinking Steve. Let's find out, Hello
Keig drinking Steve. He is up next on the Ben

Speaker 4 (38:49):
I just want to say then, real quick.
Speaker 1 (38:51):
I was born in Winsense and you know me more
as mocked the Yankees fans from.
Speaker 2 (38:56):
I remember that. I remember you.
Speaker 1 (38:59):
Yeah, feel bad. So you know blind Scott because he's
blind and everything. But man, that guy is full of
himself and real people from the North End do not
act like that.
Speaker 2 (39:09):
Okay, he's a pretender. He's a pretender on all right.
I think that's all we have time for story number one.
Here we go, Well, Matthew said, we told you earlier
in the show. Matthew Stafford's home inspected by cops after
a recent burglary of NFL players. Well, the FBI recently
issued a warning the athletes to guard their homes wall
on the road. FBI says the culprits appear to be
(39:30):
an organized gang from South America. And story number two,
Lebron spreading holiday joy the one hundred and thirty six
annual Rose Parade. Lebron James the lighting fans in Pasadena,
and you got up early to watch the Rose Parade
on his own float along with his son, Bronni James.
How cute is that? And story number three. Normally quarterbacks
(39:51):
give offensive lineman gifts if they're on the same team.
But Daniel Jones was let go by the Giants. He's
still now he's a backup in Minnesota, but he gave
his former Giant lineman expensive bottles of tequila. Those are
the three stories. Which of the three is not true? Quickly,
judges start out with Leslie and Jack the judge one
(40:13):
tour three number two, Oh Jack number two, All right,
you go with that is the fake story. Thank you,
you have a great weekend. Doyle one Tour three Doyle
the poker guy quickly number two And is Lorraine all right?
Wayne quickly? Wayne one tour three? Wayne all right? Mark,
(40:34):
what's the answer? Markets? Actually number two, number two was
the fake story. See Cooper, you got to pick up
Doyle and talk poker with Doyle on one No
Here we go.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
Welcome to the second day of January, this Thursday, and
here in our number four. Where are you at on
the Bear's front office, said to be at Loggerheads, worried
about Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson pulling a power play
if you were to get the Chicago gig and use
surp the GM's power. Also, Caleb Williams says the Bears
(00:24):
offensive line isn't bad and many of the sacks are
on him. Many are pooh pooing that. Give me your
school of thought. And Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford had cops
and NFL security inspect his home for week spots in
the many burglaries of star players. Your thoughts on that
as well. We'll get to all of it and more.
(00:46):
Right now here it is. I have a wonderful Thursday.
It's our number four. Time to bear down, if you will,
welcome in the big game of another hour of the
Ben Malar Shows, our first live show of the new year.
(01:09):
As we are beginning yet again in the air everywhere
close by, as we are floating on a cloud, coast
to coast, border to border and beyond, on the vast
and fashionably powerful microphones of fsre ammating live from the
(01:32):
navigation as we circumnavigate the sporting globe. We're broadcasting live
from the tyraq dot Com studios. Tyraq dot com. We'll
help you get there and unmatched selection, fast, free shipping,
free road hazard protection, and over ten thousand recommended in
stars and oh random. Ryan in Carolina impressed by that
(01:56):
tireraq dot com the way tire buying show be. So
I lead this out. We'll get back to the college
football later. We had a route or route depending on
how you learned the word growing up as Ohio State.
The Buckeyes came out and put a can of whoop
(02:16):
ass on Oregon in the one hundred and eleven the
Rose Bowl game in Pasadena. We actually had a competitive
game between Arizona State. They came back late against Texas
but losing in double over the dime despite dominating the stats.
But our lead from the NFL the second city and
(02:37):
we're getting ready to turn out the lots the parties
over on the NFL season. Now for the Bears. I
am old enough to remember. I don't know if you're
as old as I am, but I'm old enough to
remember when the Chicago Bears won the offseason MVP with
their their draft and the front office. The whole thing
was great. Everyone loved the Bears. They were the darlings.
(02:57):
They were set up. They returned to glory for the
Chicago Bears. Wake up the echoes, where have you gone?
Mike Ditka and Walter Payton and the great Chicago Bears
of the past. Well, and then they had to play
the games, and the Bears spent a lot of time
in the front row first class on the vomit comet,
and they fired their coach, Matt Eberflus. So it's been
(03:19):
a lot of noise about who's going to get the
job next. You might have paid some attention to this,
maybe not. The coaching Tara Sel normally starts getting going
in the next couple of weeks or so once the
regular season ends. So a lot of chatter around the Bears.
They think it's the top job in the NFL, and
they have their eye on this hot shot Lions offensive coordinator.
(03:42):
If you haven't been paying attention to that. So if
you have not, the story goes that Lions offensive coinator
Ben Johnson, Ben Johnson, It's tough name. Ben Johnson would
like the Bears job. He wants the Bears job. There
is said to be mutual interests by different factions with
(04:02):
the Bears. But problem. Oh, here's where the drama comes in.
The Bears General manager Ryan Poles has some doubts whether
or not he wants to go down that road. Now,
what are those reservations, you ask? So the story in
the reporting is rather interesting. The GM of the Bears
is concerned that Ben Johnson has gained so much power
(04:26):
despite not being a head coach, that the Lions offensive
coordinator who turned down the Washington job last year, the
former Redskins job now a Ben Johnson. He has so
much control over the next job that he gets that
he will force out the Chicago GM say what, Yeah,
(04:49):
that Ben Johnson has his eye on an entire staff
that he wants to come in, and he has his
eye on a Washington Commander's general manager assistant GM him
someone named Lance Newmark. We don't know who that is,
but apparently he's been around the NFL for a few years,
and Ryan Poles would rather go with someone a little
(05:12):
more reliable in terms of UH. There's a history like
Brian Flores, the Viking defensive coordinator, for example, his name
has been mentioned. So let us discuss the question where
are you at on the Chicago Bears front office said
to be worried about the Lions offensive for enator Ben
(05:33):
Johnson pulling a power play power play if he got
the Bears coaching job. So I've got Ghostbusters, Jack in
the Box, and medieval and we will combine all of
these things together and we will unlock the key to
(05:53):
your mind. Do do do do do do do do?
So to lead off here the analysis, the hypothesis, if
you will, it actually makes some sense. Everything is political,
and much like in the political world is when you
have we have a changing of the guard at the
White House, right, So people are worried about having jobs
(06:16):
and they're concerned about what this all means for them.
Everyone's looking out for themselves. Well, in sports, the normal
protocol is what if you get rid of the coach,
you get rid of the GM that hired the coach.
Unless the GM is an absolute mensa, then you would
keep the GM because the GM knows what he's doing,
and that's the only acceptable route in this case. At
(06:41):
this point in the story, it really is a page turner.
So if you look at the Bears right, the McCaskey
ownership group. The McCaskey ownership Group is trying to combine
the hat Fields and the McCoys, is what they're trying
to do here. And you've got the GM. Ryan Poles
has been there for a few years in Chicago. He
(07:02):
would prefer to hire a friend when in doubt, hire
a friend, or at least rent a friend. That would
be the way to go, right, Rent a friend and
all that. Now, Brian Flores, I don't care how many
stories I read, how many insiders are throwing his name out.
Both Brian Flores and John Gruden are on the natty
list for different reasons because they have active lawsuits against
(07:25):
the NFL. And I know from working in broadcasting, and
I've worked with people that have sued broadcasting companies, they
don't get hired by those broadcasting companies. It's hard for
me to imagine a world where the NFL would give
a head coaching to I realized Brian Flores is already
working in the NFL. But the head coaching thing is
a little bit different, especially a lot different than being
(07:45):
a coordinator. So but my point is this doesn't mean
you can't find somebody else that you know right that
there's another confidant that you can track down. Everyone's friends
with everyone, everyone's in bed with everyone in the end
NFL andmbring somebody in that you trust a little bit more,
and you really have to follow the breadcrumbs. So I
(08:07):
did a minutes long mallor investigation and according to what
I was able to uncover Ryan Poles, the Jam of
the Bears. His agent is Trace Armstrong, a former defensive
player in the NFL. Trace Armstrong also represents Mike McCarthy,
whose contract is up in Dallas after this weekend. Also
(08:28):
Lincoln Riley of SC. That's a tough sell, Lincoln Riley,
but he did coach the hot shot quarterback of the Bears,
Caavib Williams at SC and at Oklahoma. So there's a
bit of a connection that Brian Kelly of LSU from
Baton Rouge with his fake Southern accent. He's available. And
(08:49):
normally what happens is you have an agent, the Jam
has an agent, they hire the coach who has the
same agent. You scratch my back, I'll scratch your back.
And there's a bunch of other scattered around the NFL
as for the issue at hand, the HeLa monster in
the room. If you will here, now, we don't know
(09:10):
if Ben Johnson is going to be a good coach
or not, and you don't know. You might think you know,
but you don't know. And it's obviously much different story
here a coordinator. There have been plenty of coordinators who
have failed as head coaches, many of them with the
Chicago Bears over time. Regardless of that, my advice here
unsolicited professional wisdom, provided free of charge through the airwaves
(09:36):
or the mighty powerful Fox Sports Radio. My advice the
Bears ownership class should follow Egon's wisdom from Ghostbusters. Don't
cross the streams. Do not cross the streams. If you're
held bent on hiring Ben Johnson, just get rid of
Ryan Poles, say bye bye, get out of here. We'll
(09:59):
see you later. Send him in the transfer portal and
start fresh with Ben Johnson and some other Jabbroni as
the GM Now furthermore, staying in the Windy City. Now,
there's a story that caught my attention involving the former
number one pick in the NFL draft, Caleb Williams. And
there's all kinds of stories that have popped up in
(10:19):
recent days about how many times he's been sacked sixty
seven times, So it's more likely than not. The Bears
wrap up their season with the Packers this weekend that
Green Bay will get at least three secs. So he's
going to be in the seventy sack club, the seventy
sack club, Caleb Williams after this weekend. Now the chatter
has been much of it. It's not his fault. He's
(10:42):
just the victim. Caleb Williams is the victim wallowing in victimhood.
It's all the offensive line's fault. The fat guy's fat taming.
It's the offensive line in Chicago, mind you. The Bears
offensive line, if you look at some of the preseason rankings,
was ranked either in the middle or higher up. They
were not considered a bad offensive line. But the numbers
(11:04):
are just horrible. Now. Caleb Williams said that he's the
one that deserves a lot of the blame and that
he said, the stupid connotation behind my offensive line is
a quote. My offensive line being bad is not the truth.
Caleb Williams stated, I've taken a good amount of sacks
that have been my fault. William said, Now, Williams went
(11:28):
on to state that he hates seeing the offensive line
take the blame because of mistakes that he has made
now that has not stopped the noise. So Caleb Williams says,
the Bears offensive line is not bad. Despite the sixty
seven sacks, they're not bad, and many of the sacks
are on him. So give me your school of thought
on this one, all right, So I say, bravo is
(11:52):
what I say. Bravo is what I say. Now you
might dismiss this and say, well, he's just being polite,
that Kayleb Williams is just being the nice guy and
all that, and it's just nonsense. He doesn't really believe that.
That's just what you're supposed to say. And he's following
the guide how to play quarterback for idiots, and he's
just following that. But I say, this is a jack
(12:15):
in the box situation. If you're one of those people,
right as in the old actor Jack Nicholson, who's retired
now living as a recluse in Malibu, that you can't
handle the truth. You cannot handle truth. It's one of
my pet peeves and I have ranted about this sporadically
over the years, but it really does annoy me the
(12:36):
lack of knowledge that football fans have when it comes
to the sack. And I hear it all the time
on this job doing sports radio, and we take calls
and social media and all that that the low information fan,
the uneducated fan, they're the ones that think that the
sack is completely on the offensive line. And we all
(12:59):
agree that the same is worse than an incompletion. But
sacks are a quarterback statistic. They have been that way
for some time. They've always been that way, that the
sack rate ultimately reflects what it reflects the skill set
of the quarterback, meaning right, meaning if you have a
(13:19):
quarterback that makes quick decisions, reads the defense, gets rid
of the football, they will have a moderate or low
sack total. Read the defense, recognize where the ball needs
to go, get rid of it, treat the football like
a hot potato or a live hand grenade, and just
throw the thing and get it out of your hands.
(13:41):
And a lot of times it doesn't mean these offensive
line ratings are bull crap because we've seen this in
years past. I think it was the Indianapolis Colts Andrew
Lucke was getting sacked a lot and if I remember correctly,
it's a few years ago. Obviously hadn't played in a while.
And then they made some light adjustments with Andrew Lucky,
(14:01):
got rid of the ball quicker, same crap bag offensive line.
Suddenly they were one of the highest rated offensive lines
in the NFL because Andrew Luck had made some adjustments. Shocking, right, shocking.
It's amazing how that was all right. Now, last thing
here we head now to the crime blutter. Several stories
while I was away from my post at the watchtower
overlooking the sports landscape, recent wave of burglaries that have
(14:25):
occurred at the home of a high falutant professional athletes.
Now with that said, I read recently that Rams quarterback
Matthew Stafford taking nothing for granted, the Rams quarterback trying
to protect his home. He is invited this happened recently,
(14:46):
invited the cops over and NFL security to go over
his mansion and seeing the weak spots around the mansion
to protect the family home. Now a Rams quarterback, Matthew
Stafford having police and NFL security inspectus home. Your thoughts
on that development, So it's not like shocking or anything like.
(15:10):
You have the resources you would pursue that it makes
a lot of sense. It is a tourism issue though, right,
isn't this what this is all about. The story is
that this is a booming industry in the US over
recent years, that you've got this burglary tourism where people
are coming here and they're you know, gangs or whatever,
(15:32):
and they're targeting people that have money and like to
brag about their money, like professional athletes and whatnot. And
so this is what happens here. But Stafford, he certainly
makes enough money and he's been one of the highest
paid players in NFL history, Matthew Stafford that when he's
playing and he's on the road, he can hire armed
guards outside his palatial estate. There. Now, I recommend these
(15:56):
guys go old school. The greatest thing before guns were around,
the greatest defense system. Let's go back to the medieval times, right,
the medieval times, batting down the hatches. So how did
you protect your home back in the medieval times? All right?
You put up a drawbridge, and the drawbridge goes over
(16:20):
a moat, and in the moat it is filled with crocodiles.
That's medieval security. And very rarely did anyone dare go
in to the moat with the crocodiles, and if they did,
you never heard about it, because the crocodiles had them
for breakfast or lunch or possibly dinner, and that will
(16:41):
certainly be a deterrent for the curse. I just fill
it with like bears and alligators and that would be that,
all right. It is the Ben at Mallard Show. If

he could beat the Lions.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
That's well, he.
Speaker 2 (22:52):
Could beat the Lions. The Lions defense. I think you could.
You can throw a couple of touchdowns against the Lions.
Speaker 5 (23:00):
University is a chance to get a Frank pistrip all
the way up to not play them during until section
the third round.
Speaker 2 (23:07):
Well, all the Vikings will do if they win against
the Lions on Sunday is guarantee they will not lose
on wild card weekend. That's the only thing because if
you win, you're the number number line number. If you lose,
you go all the way down to the number five seed.
Speaker 5 (23:25):
I think they're what they're number one seed. So that's the.
Speaker 2 (23:27):
Rest of Wait, now that nobody else has that take,
So you think the Minnesota Vikings would like the number
one seed to have the buy? Nobody else has that.
You're the only one with that take. That's is that
original take?
Speaker 5 (23:38):
I don't know if it's original, but you know she
can't be the first out.
Speaker 2 (23:43):
That's a bold take. The Yeah, amazing.
Speaker 5 (23:47):
Why you know why? I think they're the dirk Horse.
I think they're really not.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
Wouldn't they be the dark Viking? Not the dark Horse?
They're a Viking.
Speaker 5 (23:56):
I think everybody's written them off. I think everybody's written
sure on Donald fact and every.
Speaker 2 (24:10):
Okay, any other Minnesota what about the Twins, any of
the Twins, propaganda, Timberwolves propaganda player that player players the
guy they traded the cups? What guys?

fake the frauds. They have family, they have kids. They're
not real blind people. They call themselves legally blind. That's
like saying like, Yo, I'm I'm legally educated. You know
what I mean if you're legally blind. You know, if
you say you're legally blind and then you go legally
blind and I'm going to Hilton Head in the same sentence,
(25:00):
that's not a blind person. I got to tell you
because you can see, man, a blind person want to
be like I'm headed to Hilton Head for the holidays.
You know, my feelings were extremely hurt last month when
legally Blind Chris made a joke about me being blind
and said like, oh, I'll use blind Scott as my agent. Listen,
blind people can be agents. That's how you can tell.
(25:21):
That's a fake blind person.
Speaker 2 (25:22):
I feel you're jealous. You you're jealous of the attention
these other blind people are getting here, and you feel like, hey,
what about me? Yeah, absolutely all right, I nailed it.
Speaker 4 (25:31):
Hey, Ben, did you know my cousin plays for Notre Dame.
Nobody no other blind team posts cousins play for Notre Dame.

Vincent Junior, number sixty two. He's been playing most of
the year. He's done. His family's down there getting ready

(25:52):
Look at a photo over me, looks.
Speaker 2 (25:54):
Joe Vincey Fins. It just says Joevid. It doesn't say ju.
He's the long snapper.

the wrong number.
Speaker 3 (26:10):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 4 (26:11):
They don't talk to me. You know, my family does
no contact with me.
Speaker 2 (26:13):
So I really getting pride of Westwood, mass But there's
the police chief of Dover, Massachusetts.
Speaker 4 (26:21):
Police chiefs.
Speaker 2 (26:21):
You know, he's the number three long snapping prospect and

be that's a that's wild to me. Dude.
Speaker 4 (26:32):

You know, look at me. Anybody raise your hands, any
blind people, anybody raising their guy in Indy remember the
guy that called hum last week? That guy's yeah blind.
Speaker 4 (27:11):
That guy was awesome. But he's a fraud because he
has kids and he has a wife.
Speaker 2 (27:15):
So when you have if you're blind, you're still able
to have kids, right, unless you've got some other problems.
Speaker 4 (27:20):
But here's the thing they see for you.
Speaker 5 (27:22):
They see for you, so.
Speaker 6 (27:23):
You don't have that is not fair.
Speaker 2 (27:26):
Do not question a blind person.
Speaker 6 (27:28):
Just because they have people with them does not make
them not blind.
Speaker 2 (27:32):
No, but they have it easier.
Speaker 6 (27:34):
You have a seeing eye dog sometimes, So when you
have a seeing eye dog, does that make you not
blind anymore?
Speaker 2 (27:39):
Emotional support? But Scott's wandering around Boston, there bad weather ice.

He wants to be the only blind person.
Speaker 2 (27:48):
Ben Well, he consider himself the king of the blind. Right, Yes,
I got it.
Speaker 4 (27:52):
This is a roots found should hear? I mean, Lorina,
I see way more like I talked to so many
other fans.
Speaker 6 (27:58):
I don't think you can see anything.
Speaker 2 (28:01):
I can't verify. I've met Scott multiple times of the
year at no Vision.
Speaker 4 (28:05):
I guarant the last Malar meat Grid, I had to
carry my guy dog to the Mallard meat Great because
you didn't want to go.
Speaker 2 (28:11):
That's rather pathetic that your dog would not want to
go to a Mallard meet and greed. That's that's bad.
I know it was raining and stuff, but still.
Speaker 4 (28:19):
But people want to know who this Bill Miller guy is?
Then who is the Philli Bill guy? I go, it's
the same dude, and they no.
Speaker 2 (28:26):
It's not the same guy. This is a profession on
six hundred radio station. You think this is some amateur
show would use the same guy?
Speaker 4 (28:32):
Come on, somebody told me the secret. Take the secret
to the bet show. See Ben is a great host.
It took me years to figure this out, but he
captured you. He's very loud and entertaining all the When
you were on vacation, I got to report that somebody
almost drove off the road into the woods and died.
Speaker 2 (28:46):
Again, Oh, that's unfortunate. Am I taking blame for that?
That somebody drove off the road? That's now? Do you
blas Scott? Do you watch Benny Versus The Penny?
Speaker 1 (28:55):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (28:55):
I did.
Speaker 4 (28:55):
Actually I catched it.
Speaker 2 (28:56):
You guys watch watches Benny versus the Petty Mom?
Speaker 1 (29:01):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (29:01):
I got Tom type of food he said. I said
to Tom, these are two guys that love each other
that are not gay. And I think you can bring
Loraina and just get rid of Tom. That I actually
going to send you anybail about it. Cut Tom out
of the picture.
Speaker 2 (29:16):
Loraina, would you like to replace Looney on the TV show?
Speaker 5 (29:18):
Oh?
Speaker 6 (29:19):
You know, I don't. I don't want to get any
bad blood with.
Speaker 4 (29:22):
Looney rain Do you know about the boob lady that Campbell's.
There's these two ladies that Campbell's. One is the boob
lady and the other is the other lady. They find
it out on Instagram.
Speaker 1 (29:29):
It's great.
Speaker 2 (29:31):
How are you on Instagram? You can't see anything? I
gotta thank you, all right. There's a blind Scott checking
in from the north end.
Speaker 6 (29:37):
I wonder about that too, Ben. Do you think Instagram
reads to them?
Speaker 2 (29:41):
There is a blind Twitters, so there must be blind Instagram.
Speaker 6 (29:44):
I was curious about that too, because yes.
Speaker 2 (29:47):
It's got to be that we don't know, because we don't.
Speaker 6 (29:49):
We're not Did you like my post? How do you
know what I said?
Speaker 2 (29:53):
But if we were in that world, there's different I
think they have different options you can have for those
that are lacking vision. So to'll explain everything. There's the
booty model shaking her booty's down all around right there,
and there's another one and another one no one, all right,
(30:15):
so changing planes, dj Reed? This is kind of funny.
So dj Reed is a defensive back for the Jets,
and this week he admitted he didn't play dumb. He
admitted he does not want to play for the Jets
next year. Now, normally the proper decorum is to pretend
like you do want to play for the team next
year and you're not sure what the fuge rows. But
(30:36):
DJ reads, I just admitted I don't want to be
here next year. I want to go play somewhere else.
Now the tipping tip tip tip tip. Jalen Milroe, the
quarterback for Alabama, had a terrible game in the Crimson
tized loss to Michigan. It was you get a turnover,
you get a turnover, you get a turnover, A lot
of mistakes, a lot of poor throws. And now the
(30:58):
claim is that the reason he sucked at a time
he cannot suck the Alabama quarterback is because he was
tipping the plays that the Alabama quarterback. This always annoys me.
This happens mostly in baseball. A pitcher, starting pitcher will
go out and just get lit off as it always
tipping the pitches. And while that does happen, and it
(31:19):
is legal unless you're the cheating a holes and you
use video equipment things like that, it's just it just
leaves a bad taste in my mouth. And I want
to go back to the Jets. For a second. I
mentioned that DJ Reid admitted he doesn't want to return
to the team. How about Garrett Wilson who claimed all
(31:39):
that noise about him being at loggerheads with Aaron Rodgers
not true, not true? He says, do not believe social media? Okay,
should we believe Keg drinking Steve. Let's find out, Hello
Keig drinking Steve. He is up next on the Ben
Maler Show. Hello Steve O for the first time in

Year's Eve? Dick's been dawned for a while.
Speaker 1 (32:39):

because that dude is a good look.
Speaker 2 (32:49):
How about this Dick Clark. This is not a fun fact,
but Dick Clark, entertainment icon, died thirteen years ago. About that, Oh.

like a long time, and all the crazies are back.
How lucky am I? How lucky are you? It's amazing. Anyway,

it is the the Ben male Show, and I need
some judges. We're gonna have fact or fiction. I need
a panel of judges, and this is your chance. I'll
