Speaker 1 (00:00):
Here we go. It's our number four, our number four.
All about the NFL Draft. To begin our number four
by or Sell the Tennessee Titans being locked in on
Miami quarterback cam Ward as the top pick in the
twenty twenty five draft. Also, do you believe the stories
(00:22):
that Travis Hunters now ranked as both the top wide
receiver and defensive back in the draft by the New
England Patriots. And what do you make of reports that
Tom Brady's Raiders could it's a weasel word target wide
receivers Stefawn Diggs. We'll talk about all that and more
right now, have a wonderful Tuesday opening day in baseball.
(00:46):
Here it is our number four. Now what ward are
you in?
Speaker 2 (00:52):
Welcome in the beginning of another hour of the Ben
Maler Show.
Speaker 3 (00:58):
We are in the a We're everywhere taking the early
morning hours head on as we draw a line in
the sand, coast to coast, border, the border and beyond.
Speaker 1 (01:12):
On the mast and ear poppingly powerful microphones of fs
are emminating live from the voyage as we are your
verbal voyage all night, every night, every day. The talk
does not stop. We're broadcasting live from the tire rack

Speaker 4 (01:43):
James in Minnesota loves that number ten thousand.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
Tire rack dot com the way tire buying showy. So
our lead this hour with fireworks going on. We're about
an hour away from the start of the baseball season. Yeah,
I know, what are you talking about. You can't play baseball. Yeah,
they're gonna play a real game. Baseball sold some games
to Tokyo and they're also selling two hundred and fifty
(02:08):
dollars jerseys and all kinds of other nickknacks and crap
for a lot of money. It is a major, major
money making operation. They're the Dodgers and Cubs will kick
off the season. And I know Eugene in Chicago's all
excited about the Cubs, and then once they play, he
will no longer be excited.
Speaker 4 (02:25):
But anyway, that's the matchup an hour from now.
Speaker 1 (02:27):
But our lead this hour is from the butt, the
scuttle butt, not baseball, no, no, no.
Speaker 4 (02:34):
Football gossip. That's where it's at.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
NFL draft style and in Nashville. They are on the clock,
on the clock in Nashville, the very top of the draft.
Speaker 4 (02:45):
If you've not.
Speaker 1 (02:45):
Been following, maybe not the story the latest developments as
they warrant. From what we're hearing about the draft, from
what I was reading over the last few hours, the
buzz is the Tennessee Titans. That's a football team, not
a good one because they have the number one overall pick.
The Tennessee Titans have quote grown pretty comfortable with Miami
(03:10):
quarterback cam Ward cam Ward, and at this particular moment
in time we do the show today, at this particular
moment in time, cam Ward is likely going to be
the number one overall pick, and that they are mostly
done with the whole pre draft process. There's maybe some
(03:32):
more meetings, but that's about it. So let us discuss
the question for you by or sell, By or Sell
the Tennessee Titans being locked in on cam Ward with
the top pick in the twenty twenty five college draft.
So I've got cartoon sized tractor supply and black and yellow,
(03:58):
and we will combine all of these things.
Speaker 4 (04:00):
Together and we are going to make a delicious pulled barbecue.
Speaker 1 (04:06):
Chicken sandwich which will just be wonderful, the proper barbecue
sauce and all.
Speaker 4 (04:11):
It'll just be great, all right.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
So to kick off though, now these type of stories,
I have had a running commentary with a couple of
my buddies that do radio shows in different cities, and
we go back and forth, and much of the conversation
on the draft is dependent on whether there's other stuff
like this. Aaron Rodgers' story has been a buzzkill because
(04:34):
the latest talk we did a monologue on and earlier,
and Rodgers is like debating whether or not he wants
to wait and maybe to the draft to make a decision.
Speaker 4 (04:41):
That's the latest story.
Speaker 1 (04:42):
But it's pretty much dependent on what else is going on.
If it's a slow football news day, these guys have
to come up with something. So it's like this guy's
rising up the draft board, this guy's falling down the
draft board, which is all of course subjective, and you know,
you can get a million different versions of what's going on.
As far as the Tennessee Titans. I do not buy
(05:04):
what's going on. I'm gonna sell this store. I don't
buy it. I don't believe it. I think it's a nonsense.
Tennessee has been very ambiguous. That's the word I will
use in it's messaging here. But generally speaking, the vibe
I get is it's all just posturing. It's all posturing,
(05:24):
and it's all about market power and trying to work
out a trade.
Speaker 4 (05:29):
And people have pointed.
Speaker 1 (05:30):
Out, this is the longest we've had every team hold
on to the first round draft pick. No one has
traded a first round draft pick in the twenty twenty
five draft, and it's.
Speaker 4 (05:39):
Been since the early nineties.
Speaker 1 (05:42):
That's like thirty years ago, before our friend Mary Mack,
who's working here, was even alive. The last time they
traded a first round went this far without trading a
first round pick, So it's been it's been a minute.
So I just think it's negotiating tactics by the Tennessee Titans,
and they're setting up the cartoons eyes mouse trap. The
Titans are their front office, and they're putting a big
(06:04):
piece of Wisconsin cheddar cheese, that really good Wisconsin cheese.
They're putting it down there and they're just waiting for
the Browns or the Giants or the Raiders to bite.
Speaker 4 (06:16):
The cheese, right to eat the cheese, and.
Speaker 1 (06:19):
Then it is on and the Tennessee wants a bunch
of picks, and the way you get a bunch of
picks is to trade the very top pick in the draft,
and then you get a bunch of picks. And you
know that cam Ward if you look at his scouting profile,
which is not always right. It's not always right. It's
all we have to go with. And I've read a
(06:40):
number of these things. I've done it for your purposes
so you don't have to. And the general consensus of
the draftnicks is that cam Wore's not bad. He's just
not your prototypical top pick in the draft. In fact,
his draft grade is as of a late first round
or second round pick, which.
Speaker 4 (07:00):
Is actually higher than it was.
Speaker 1 (07:01):
Initially it was like a late second third round pick,
but it's now late first round or early second round.
And the reason he's got three strikes against him. Strike
number one ball security. It does not secure the football.
That is a problem. Strike number two is accuracy, which
is the most important thing, is accuracy. It's not arm
(07:22):
strength or speed, it's accuracy. The late great Mike Leach
used to advocate for that, used to preach about that.
And sack avoidance, which is a major problem for a
bunch of quarterbacks in the NFL these days, they just
don't they don't have an ability to avoid pressure, and
they don't have this internal clock.
Speaker 4 (07:39):
We see it all over the place.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
And you know, dumb fans, low information fans, the low
IQ fans always blame the fat guys on the offensive line,
when often it's the quarterback who's just got to treat
that football like a hot potato and get rid of it.
And they hold the ball for too long and they
turn they get sacked a lot, and people blame the
offensive line.
Speaker 4 (07:57):
It's not the offensive line's fault most sacks.
Speaker 1 (08:00):
It's a quarterback statistic, not an offensive line statistic most
of the time. So he's got all that. I listen
at Tennessee. I don't think they're going to take him.
You look at the top of the draft board, there's
really only one supposedly generational player at the very top,
and that is the stud defender from Penn State. Other
(08:23):
than that, you know players, some of them will turn
out to be good and some of them might turn
out to be great, but based on what we have
to work with, it's.
Speaker 4 (08:32):
Not looking that great now. Furthermore, speaking of the draft,
to New England.
Speaker 1 (08:36):
We go, as the Patriots have a swung and missed
early and often, and the draft is now thirty seven
days away. We have thirty seven days away from the
NFL Draft, which always sounds alike a lot of fun.
And then once we get past, like the first ten
picks of the draft, I just checked my phone every
so often to see who's drafted, but.
Speaker 4 (08:57):
The first like ten picks or so, I'm kind of
into it. And then after that.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
Anyway, so there are some whispers coming out of patriot
Land that the Patriots are smitten kittens. They love Colorado's
Heisman winner, Travis Hunter. He is the top ranked player
supposedly if you believe the latest reporting on their draft
board regarding defensive back and wide.
Speaker 4 (09:24):
Receiver, he's at the very top. He's a number one
King of the Hill.
Speaker 1 (09:29):
Now, if New England did use the number four overall
pick on the Heisman Trophy winner, then it is the
assumption is based on the noise out there, is that
they would use him as a receiver primarily, not a
defensive back. Now, the reason that would be is because
(09:49):
they have other they have other defensive backs. They don't
need another defensive back.
Speaker 5 (09:54):
Soul.
Speaker 1 (09:55):
Do you believe that Travis Hunter is actually ranked at
the top of both the wide receiver and defensive back
big boards for the New England football team?
Speaker 4 (10:06):
And no, I am not.
Speaker 1 (10:09):
I'm not buying that. Now here's a good player. I
enjoyed Washington play at Colorado. Colorado. God knows, they got
a lot of television time. You couldn't avoid Colorado football.
Even when they sucked, they still got on TV because
they for a while got ratings because of the Deon
Sanders effect and all that.
Speaker 4 (10:24):
But here's what I believe.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
I believe that Travis Hunter and the people that are
advocating for Travis Hunter are really good cornerhype men. They're
really good hype men for Travis Hunter. They went down
to track their supply and they purchased a big package
of seeds. Now I'm not talking about tomato seeds. I'm
(10:45):
not talking about cucumbers or peppers or carrots. I'm talking
about the seed of razzle Dazzle. And they got the
messaging out and it was they planted it and now
it's come to harvest and they're getting all this positive
attention for Travis Hunter, and some people are taking it
hook line and sinker in the media. Now, the truth
(11:06):
will come out on draft I remember about a month
full over a month ago.
Speaker 4 (11:09):
Before the NFL drafts. We'll find out at that time.
Speaker 1 (11:12):
But the secondary is not that big a deal for
the Patriots because even though they're a bad football team,
they have what they consider pretty good starting defensive backs
Christian Gonzales on one side, and they're paying on the
other side, mister Davis. I think he's eighteen million dollars
a year, Carlton Davis. So he's making a bunch of
money on the other side. So if're making that kind
of money, you're not going to get replaced by somebody
(11:33):
the draft, and they do need a receiver they have
Nobody wants to go there and play receiver, is it
Josh McDaniels, Is it?
Speaker 4 (11:39):
Is it Trake may Or? People are avoiding that.
Speaker 1 (11:42):
They'd rather have the wubonic plague then go play for
the Patriots as a wide receiver.
Speaker 4 (11:47):
They had.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
Strike one was Chris Godwin didn't want to play there.
Strike two was dk Metcalf who they didn't end up
trading for. He went to Pittsburgh. And Strike three was
Cooper cup who went to Seattle so three strikes are
out and so now they have to settle for somebody
in the draft or trade for some other.
Speaker 4 (12:04):
JABBRONI who's out there now?
Speaker 1 (12:05):
Last thing, we head to free agency lands speaking of
players that are still out there, and there is a
player you've heard of, We've talked about on this show
multiple times over the years because he's good talk radio.
Bad for the locker room, but good talk radio. What
do you make of reports that Tom Brady's Raiders are
(12:27):
going to target wide receivers Stefon Diggs?
Speaker 4 (12:30):
Remember him? Oh? Yeah, you know, you know what I'm
talking Stefan. Oh yeah, that's the same guy.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
Yeah, all right, So I give the idea that this
is something that's important Stefan Diggs to the Raiders. I
give this a super duper eye roll, not just a
regular eye roll, A super duper ie roll, is what
I give it. Stefan Diggs has been the iceman so
far this offseason. All these players have changed teams, and
there's been a lot of player movement and a bunch
(12:58):
of teams that need wide receivers. And from what we
have been told, there have been zero, zero visits. Nobody
has contacted Stefan dis said, hey, come on, we gotta
really meet with you. We want to sign you, we
want to whine in Dina, we want to publicly court you.
None of that has happened. Even the desperate wide receiver
(13:18):
teams like the Charges we just talked about, the Patriots
also that are horny to get a wide receiver, none
of them have contacted this guy and said, hey, we
want to we want to add you to our team.
They haven't reached out. Now, why is that right? You
got to read the very clear. I wear glasses, but
even I can see this, the black and yellow warning label,
(13:39):
the black and yellow warning label which is right there,
and it says biohazard, do not touch, biohazard, do not touch.
Speaker 4 (13:45):
You need a respirator, you need goggles, you.
Speaker 1 (13:47):
Need protective clothing required around this particular player. And Diggs
is entering his age thirty two season. He's coming off
a shredded a a shreded ACL. He also has been
tagged with asbestis with the Vikings, with Buffalo and Houston.
(14:10):
So that's I think. Also, three strikes are out right,
the strike one, strike two, strike three, and yet he
is still going to demand whatever team he plays for,
a heavy heavy diet of pigskin. Give me the damn ball,
Give me the damn ball.
Speaker 4 (14:25):
Good luck.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
So yeah, could Digs go to the Raiders or some
other team on a prove it type deal like the
Cowboys or something like that, sure unapproved deal. But Tom
Brady is anyone having a worse offseason than Tom Brady.
Tom Brady wanted Matthew Stafford to be the Raiders quarterback.
Stafford they met in a clandestine meeting in Montana and
Stafford said, go pound say it.
Speaker 4 (14:46):
I don't want to play for you. I respect you,
I don't want to play for you.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
Tom Brady thought he was going to get Ben Johnson
from the Lions to be his head coach. He could
not get Ben Johnson to agree. Ben Johnson went to
the Chicago Bears. So Tom Brady he has recreated the
twenty twenty three Seattle Seahawks. Oh my god, what are
you doing? Tom? Tom terrific? He is again Michael Jordan
(15:12):
as a GM. He got the oldest coach in the NFL.
He got a suckbag quarterback in Geno Smith. They don't
have any receivers. It is a disaster. And because he's
Tom Brady, no one's ripping him, no one's giving him
a hard time.
Speaker 4 (15:27):
It's bad. It is ug lee for the Raiders.
Speaker 1 (15:31):
In fact, I believe it's so bad that Mark Davis,
who controls because of his dad and the DNA, the
majority interest in the Raiders, ought to just hire one
of the people that serve food at PF. Chang's because
they could also recreate the twenty twenty three Seattle Seahawks
or the twenty twenty two Seattle Seahawks. They didn't need
to bring Tom Brady in for that. It is the

I gotta ask Mary mc a question. Mary Matt, You, ay,
guys with salt beards that just have straight salt beards,
like they don't die their beard. It just turns on
gray and they call it salt.
Speaker 4 (20:32):
Well, it would be salt. If it was a white beard,
it would be pepper.
Speaker 1 (20:36):
If it was it was both, it be salt and pepper.
Speaker 4 (20:39):
And you're blind, so it doesn't matter. All beards are
the same.
Speaker 6 (20:42):
Fifty years old and you're putting on a salt beard.
You're not attracting like a twenty three year old Jordan
like Bill. So Bill and his girlfriend Jordia on the beach.
You know, no why anybody's attractive. But Bill and his
girlfriend Jordan were on the beach in Jubert, Floyd. They're
getting married at the end of the year, the two
of them. It's news everybody know encircled.
Speaker 4 (21:01):

tough guy and now he's older and he's just a
complete simp for this, for this one in Jordan, he's
going to give her all his money. He's completely lost.
Speaker 1 (21:28):

of old dudes do. They fiked up with a younger
woman and they're smitten and they give all their lives
riches away.

Speaker 6 (23:09):
Me from the studio, Like, why do you think I'm
not allowed to year? I don't want to go anyway
to typer. I don't like leave in the North End.
I don't feel comfortable.
Speaker 1 (23:17):
You hate. You always complain about the North End. You
think you know, you rip everyone that lives there. You
think they're all a bunch of schmucks.
Speaker 6 (23:24):
I love the North End so much I never want
to leave to I love it.
Speaker 4 (23:27):
Oh my god, all right, I don't. I gotta go.
Speaker 1 (23:31):
For two weeks you were ripping them.
Speaker 6 (23:32):
You wait, a guy called up I hated here to
it at the same time, it really sucks here out
my guy dog taken away. They took a petition around
the neighborhood and called up guy Dog schools.
Speaker 4 (23:43):
I mean people here, Okay, I gotta go.
Speaker 1 (23:45):
I thank you, go go go away. All right, I
got a fun Do we have that fun fact? That
fun fact, sound effect or whatever I get? I get
a fun fact. This is exciting fun fact. Fun fact.
So about how half an hour the Major League Baseball
season will begin. I can't think of a better way
to get buzzed than play your first game at six
(24:05):
in the morning on the East coast and three in
the morning on the West coast. But sure enough, it's
gonna happen in Tokyo. The Dodgers will take on the
Cubs and Max Munsey. Now, if he gets a hit
in either the game today or tomorrow for the Doyers.
He has at least one hit in the US, Canada, Mexico,
and South Korea. So if he gets a hit in Japan,
(24:28):
Max Munsey, the Dodgers will join the very small list
of players that have gotten a hit in five countries
and or territories. That list it's more of a big
board than the list Terry in England. It includes ed
Gardo Alfonso. There's a fun name from the past at
Guardo Alfonso, Paul Goldschmid Goldie of the New York Yankees,
(24:50):
and the current San Diego Padre in former Red Sox
Xander Bogart. So Max Munsey can become the fourth player
in baseball history to get at least one hit in
five different countries and or territories. If he's able to
get a hit over the next couple of days, and
if he doesn't get a hit, the Dodgers should release him.
Speaker 4 (25:10):
They should absolutely list him.

Speaker 1 (29:43):
You're not only a professional athlete, you are also a barista,
a age old staple of what would you call it?
There's not like trolling. It's a right of passage. Call
it a right of passage for Major League Baseball. The
latest team to take and the rite of passage the
Boston Red Sox, who a couple of Red Sox rookies
(30:05):
were forced to buy and deliver seventy six different coffee
orders in one trip. And right now there are a
bunch of dudes and dudets that work and deliver food
that are like, what's the big deal?
Speaker 4 (30:18):
I do that every night.
Speaker 1 (30:20):
I don't understand. I don't get it. But a Red
Sox rookie, a rookie named Rome and Anthony, made the
mistake of was apparently talking about coffee with former Dodger
Walker Buehler and whatnot, and another rookie someone named Marcelo Mayer,
(30:41):
and the next day they ended up having to take,
buy and deliver seventy six different orders of coffee for
the entire Red Sox organization. Can't they buy their own
coffee machine and just put that in the clubhouse? No,
apparently not seventy six orders? There you go, So they
I guess they went over to the Starbucks and loaded up,
(31:04):
just just went for it, said why not, We're gonna.

Here we go. It's our number four, our number four.
All about the NFL Draft. To begin our number four
by or Sell the Tennessee Titans being locked in on
Miami quarterback cam Ward as the top pick in the
twenty twenty five draft. Also, do you believe the stories
(00:22):
that Travis Hunters now ranked as both the top wide
receiver and defensive back in the draft by the New
England Patriots. And what do you make of reports that
Tom Brady's Raiders could it's a weasel word target wide
receivers Stefawn Diggs. We'll talk about all that and more
right now, have a wonderful Tuesday opening day in baseball.
(00:46):
Here it is our number four. Now what ward are
you in?
Speaker 2 (00:52):
Welcome in the beginning of another hour of the Ben
Maler Show.
Speaker 3 (00:58):
We are in the a We're everywhere taking the early
morning hours head on as we draw a line in
the sand, coast to coast, border, the border and beyond.
Speaker 1 (01:12):

Speaker 4 (01:43):
James in Minnesota loves that number ten thousand.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
Tire rack dot com the way tire buying showy. So
our lead this hour with fireworks going on. We're about
an hour away from the start of the baseball season. Yeah,
I know, what are you talking about. You can't play baseball. Yeah,
they're gonna play a real game. Baseball sold some games
to Tokyo and they're also selling two hundred and fifty
(02:08):
dollars jerseys and all kinds of other nickknacks and crap
for a lot of money. It is a major, major
money making operation. They're the Dodgers and Cubs will kick
off the season. And I know Eugene in Chicago's all
excited about the Cubs, and then once they play, he
will no longer be excited.
Speaker 4 (02:25):
But anyway, that's the matchup an hour from now.
Speaker 1 (02:27):
But our lead this hour is from the butt, the
scuttle butt, not baseball, no, no, no.
Speaker 4 (02:34):
Football gossip. That's where it's at.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
NFL draft style and in Nashville. They are on the clock,
on the clock in Nashville, the very top of the draft.
Speaker 4 (02:45):
If you've not.
Speaker 1 (02:45):
Been following, maybe not the story the latest developments as
they warrant. From what we're hearing about the draft, from
what I was reading over the last few hours, the
buzz is the Tennessee Titans. That's a football team, not
a good one because they have the number one overall pick.
The Tennessee Titans have quote grown pretty comfortable with Miami
(03:10):
quarterback cam Ward cam Ward, and at this particular moment
in time we do the show today, at this particular
moment in time, cam Ward is likely going to be
the number one overall pick, and that they are mostly
done with the whole pre draft process. There's maybe some
(03:32):
more meetings, but that's about it. So let us discuss
the question for you by or sell, By or Sell
the Tennessee Titans being locked in on cam Ward with
the top pick in the twenty twenty five college draft.
So I've got cartoon sized tractor supply and black and yellow,
(03:58):
and we will combine all of these things.
Speaker 4 (04:00):
Together and we are going to make a delicious pulled barbecue.
Speaker 1 (04:06):
Chicken sandwich which will just be wonderful, the proper barbecue
sauce and all.
Speaker 4 (04:11):
It'll just be great, all right.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
So to kick off though, now these type of stories,
I have had a running commentary with a couple of
my buddies that do radio shows in different cities, and
we go back and forth, and much of the conversation
on the draft is dependent on whether there's other stuff
like this. Aaron Rodgers' story has been a buzzkill because
(04:34):
the latest talk we did a monologue on and earlier,
and Rodgers is like debating whether or not he wants
to wait and maybe to the draft to make a decision.
Speaker 4 (04:41):
That's the latest story.
Speaker 1 (04:42):
But it's pretty much dependent on what else is going on.
If it's a slow football news day, these guys have
to come up with something. So it's like this guy's
rising up the draft board, this guy's falling down the
draft board, which is all of course subjective, and you know,
you can get a million different versions of what's going on.
As far as the Tennessee Titans. I do not buy
(05:04):
what's going on. I'm gonna sell this store. I don't
buy it. I don't believe it. I think it's a nonsense.
Tennessee has been very ambiguous. That's the word I will
use in it's messaging here. But generally speaking, the vibe
I get is it's all just posturing. It's all posturing,
(05:24):
and it's all about market power and trying to work
out a trade.
Speaker 4 (05:29):
And people have pointed.
Speaker 1 (05:30):
Out, this is the longest we've had every team hold
on to the first round draft pick. No one has
traded a first round draft pick in the twenty twenty
five draft, and it's.
Speaker 4 (05:39):
Been since the early nineties.
Speaker 1 (05:42):
That's like thirty years ago, before our friend Mary Mack,
who's working here, was even alive. The last time they
traded a first round went this far without trading a
first round pick, So it's been it's been a minute.
So I just think it's negotiating tactics by the Tennessee Titans,
and they're setting up the cartoons eyes mouse trap. The
Titans are their front office, and they're putting a big
(06:04):
piece of Wisconsin cheddar cheese, that really good Wisconsin cheese.
They're putting it down there and they're just waiting for
the Browns or the Giants or the Raiders to bite.
Speaker 4 (06:16):
The cheese, right to eat the cheese, and.
Speaker 1 (06:19):
Then it is on and the Tennessee wants a bunch
of picks, and the way you get a bunch of
picks is to trade the very top pick in the draft,
and then you get a bunch of picks. And you
know that cam Ward if you look at his scouting profile,
which is not always right. It's not always right. It's
all we have to go with. And I've read a
(06:40):
number of these things. I've done it for your purposes
so you don't have to. And the general consensus of
the draftnicks is that cam Wore's not bad. He's just
not your prototypical top pick in the draft. In fact,
his draft grade is as of a late first round
or second round pick, which.
Speaker 4 (07:00):
Is actually higher than it was.
Speaker 1 (07:01):
Initially it was like a late second third round pick,
but it's now late first round or early second round.
And the reason he's got three strikes against him. Strike
number one ball security. It does not secure the football.
That is a problem. Strike number two is accuracy, which
is the most important thing, is accuracy. It's not arm
(07:22):
strength or speed, it's accuracy. The late great Mike Leach
used to advocate for that, used to preach about that.
And sack avoidance, which is a major problem for a
bunch of quarterbacks in the NFL these days, they just
don't they don't have an ability to avoid pressure, and
they don't have this internal clock.
Speaker 4 (07:39):
We see it all over the place.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
And you know, dumb fans, low information fans, the low
IQ fans always blame the fat guys on the offensive line,
when often it's the quarterback who's just got to treat
that football like a hot potato and get rid of it.
And they hold the ball for too long and they
turn they get sacked a lot, and people blame the
offensive line.
Speaker 4 (07:57):
It's not the offensive line's fault most sacks.
Speaker 1 (08:00):
It's a quarterback statistic, not an offensive line statistic most
of the time. So he's got all that. I listen
at Tennessee. I don't think they're going to take him.
You look at the top of the draft board, there's
really only one supposedly generational player at the very top,
and that is the stud defender from Penn State. Other
(08:23):
than that, you know players, some of them will turn
out to be good and some of them might turn
out to be great, but based on what we have
to work with, it's.
Speaker 4 (08:32):
Not looking that great now. Furthermore, speaking of the draft,
to New England.
Speaker 1 (08:36):
We go, as the Patriots have a swung and missed
early and often, and the draft is now thirty seven
days away. We have thirty seven days away from the
NFL Draft, which always sounds alike a lot of fun.
And then once we get past, like the first ten
picks of the draft, I just checked my phone every
so often to see who's drafted, but.
Speaker 4 (08:57):
The first like ten picks or so, I'm kind of
into it. And then after that.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
Anyway, so there are some whispers coming out of patriot
Land that the Patriots are smitten kittens. They love Colorado's
Heisman winner, Travis Hunter. He is the top ranked player
supposedly if you believe the latest reporting on their draft
board regarding defensive back and wide.
Speaker 4 (09:24):
Receiver, he's at the very top. He's a number one
King of the Hill.
Speaker 1 (09:29):
Now, if New England did use the number four overall
pick on the Heisman Trophy winner, then it is the
assumption is based on the noise out there, is that
they would use him as a receiver primarily, not a
defensive back. Now, the reason that would be is because
(09:49):
they have other they have other defensive backs. They don't
need another defensive back.
Speaker 5 (09:54):
Soul.
Speaker 1 (09:55):
Do you believe that Travis Hunter is actually ranked at
the top of both the wide receiver and defensive back
big boards for the New England football team?
Speaker 4 (10:06):
And no, I am not.
Speaker 1 (10:09):
I'm not buying that. Now here's a good player. I
enjoyed Washington play at Colorado. Colorado. God knows, they got
a lot of television time. You couldn't avoid Colorado football.
Even when they sucked, they still got on TV because
they for a while got ratings because of the Deon
Sanders effect and all that.
Speaker 4 (10:24):
But here's what I believe.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
I believe that Travis Hunter and the people that are
advocating for Travis Hunter are really good cornerhype men. They're
really good hype men for Travis Hunter. They went down
to track their supply and they purchased a big package
of seeds. Now I'm not talking about tomato seeds. I'm
(10:45):
not talking about cucumbers or peppers or carrots. I'm talking
about the seed of razzle Dazzle. And they got the
messaging out and it was they planted it and now
it's come to harvest and they're getting all this positive
attention for Travis Hunter, and some people are taking it
hook line and sinker in the media. Now, the truth
(11:06):
will come out on draft I remember about a month
full over a month ago.
Speaker 4 (11:09):
Before the NFL drafts. We'll find out at that time.
Speaker 1 (11:12):
But the secondary is not that big a deal for
the Patriots because even though they're a bad football team,
they have what they consider pretty good starting defensive backs
Christian Gonzales on one side, and they're paying on the
other side, mister Davis. I think he's eighteen million dollars
a year, Carlton Davis. So he's making a bunch of
money on the other side. So if're making that kind
of money, you're not going to get replaced by somebody
(11:33):
the draft, and they do need a receiver they have
Nobody wants to go there and play receiver, is it
Josh McDaniels, Is it?
Speaker 4 (11:39):
Is it Trake may Or? People are avoiding that.
Speaker 1 (11:42):
They'd rather have the wubonic plague then go play for
the Patriots as a wide receiver.
Speaker 4 (11:47):
They had.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
Strike one was Chris Godwin didn't want to play there.
Strike two was dk Metcalf who they didn't end up
trading for. He went to Pittsburgh. And Strike three was
Cooper cup who went to Seattle so three strikes are
out and so now they have to settle for somebody
in the draft or trade for some other.
Speaker 4 (12:04):
JABBRONI who's out there now?
Speaker 1 (12:05):
Last thing, we head to free agency lands speaking of
players that are still out there, and there is a
player you've heard of, We've talked about on this show
multiple times over the years because he's good talk radio.
Bad for the locker room, but good talk radio. What
do you make of reports that Tom Brady's Raiders are
(12:27):
going to target wide receivers Stefon Diggs?
Speaker 4 (12:30):
Remember him? Oh? Yeah, you know, you know what I'm
talking Stefan. Oh yeah, that's the same guy.
Speaker 1 (12:36):
Yeah, all right, So I give the idea that this
is something that's important Stefan Diggs to the Raiders. I
give this a super duper eye roll, not just a
regular eye roll, A super duper ie roll, is what
I give it. Stefan Diggs has been the iceman so
far this offseason. All these players have changed teams, and
there's been a lot of player movement and a bunch
(12:58):
of teams that need wide receivers. And from what we
have been told, there have been zero, zero visits. Nobody
has contacted Stefan dis said, hey, come on, we gotta
really meet with you. We want to sign you, we
want to whine in Dina, we want to publicly court you.
None of that has happened. Even the desperate wide receiver
(13:18):
teams like the Charges we just talked about, the Patriots
also that are horny to get a wide receiver, none
of them have contacted this guy and said, hey, we
want to we want to add you to our team.
They haven't reached out. Now, why is that right? You
got to read the very clear. I wear glasses, but
even I can see this, the black and yellow warning label,
(13:39):
the black and yellow warning label which is right there,
and it says biohazard, do not touch, biohazard, do not touch.
Speaker 4 (13:45):
You need a respirator, you need goggles, you.
Speaker 1 (13:47):
Need protective clothing required around this particular player. And Diggs
is entering his age thirty two season. He's coming off
a shredded a a shreded ACL. He also has been
tagged with asbestis with the Vikings, with Buffalo and Houston.
(14:10):
So that's I think. Also, three strikes are out right,
the strike one, strike two, strike three, and yet he
is still going to demand whatever team he plays for,
a heavy heavy diet of pigskin. Give me the damn ball,
Give me the damn ball.
Speaker 4 (14:25):
Good luck.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
So yeah, could Digs go to the Raiders or some
other team on a prove it type deal like the
Cowboys or something like that, sure unapproved deal. But Tom
Brady is anyone having a worse offseason than Tom Brady.
Tom Brady wanted Matthew Stafford to be the Raiders quarterback.
Stafford they met in a clandestine meeting in Montana and
Stafford said, go pound say it.
Speaker 4 (14:46):
I don't want to play for you. I respect you,
I don't want to play for you.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
Tom Brady thought he was going to get Ben Johnson
from the Lions to be his head coach. He could
not get Ben Johnson to agree. Ben Johnson went to
the Chicago Bears. So Tom Brady he has recreated the
twenty twenty three Seattle Seahawks. Oh my god, what are
you doing? Tom? Tom terrific? He is again Michael Jordan
(15:12):
as a GM. He got the oldest coach in the NFL.
He got a suckbag quarterback in Geno Smith. They don't
have any receivers. It is a disaster. And because he's
Tom Brady, no one's ripping him, no one's giving him
a hard time.
Speaker 4 (15:27):
It's bad. It is ug lee for the Raiders.
Speaker 1 (15:31):
In fact, I believe it's so bad that Mark Davis,
who controls because of his dad and the DNA, the
majority interest in the Raiders, ought to just hire one
of the people that serve food at PF. Chang's because
they could also recreate the twenty twenty three Seattle Seahawks
or the twenty twenty two Seattle Seahawks. They didn't need
to bring Tom Brady in for that. It is the

guys with salt beards that just have straight salt beards,
like they don't die their beard. It just turns on
gray and they call it salt.
Speaker 4 (20:32):
Well, it would be salt. If it was a white beard,
it would be pepper.
Speaker 1 (20:36):
If it was it was both, it be salt and pepper.
Speaker 4 (20:39):
And you're blind, so it doesn't matter. All beards are
the same.
Speaker 6 (20:42):
Fifty years old and you're putting on a salt beard.
You're not attracting like a twenty three year old Jordan
like Bill. So Bill and his girlfriend Jordia on the beach.

I thank you, go go go away. All right, I
got a fun Do we have that fun fact? That
fun fact, sound effect or whatever I get? I get
a fun fact. This is exciting fun fact. Fun fact.
So about how half an hour the Major League Baseball
season will begin. I can't think of a better way
to get buzzed than play your first game at six
(24:05):
in the morning on the East coast and three in
the morning on the West coast. But sure enough, it's
gonna happen in Tokyo. The Dodgers will take on the
Cubs and Max Munsey. Now, if he gets a hit
in either the game today or tomorrow for the Doyers.
He has at least one hit in the US, Canada, Mexico,
and South Korea. So if he gets a hit in Japan,
(24:28):
Max Munsey, the Dodgers will join the very small list
of players that have gotten a hit in five countries
and or territories. That list it's more of a big
board than the list Terry in England. It includes ed
Gardo Alfonso. There's a fun name from the past at
Guardo Alfonso, Paul Goldschmid Goldie of the New York Yankees,
(24:50):
and the current San Diego Padre in former Red Sox
Xander Bogart. So Max Munsey can become the fourth player
in baseball history to get at least one hit in
five different countries and or territories. If he's able to
get a hit over the next couple of days, and
if he doesn't get a hit, the Dodgers should release him.
Speaker 4 (25:10):
They should absolutely list him.

There's not like trolling. It's a right of passage. Call
it a right of passage for Major League Baseball. The
latest team to take and the rite of passage the
Boston Red Sox, who a couple of Red Sox rookies
(30:05):
were forced to buy and deliver seventy six different coffee
orders in one trip. And right now there are a
bunch of dudes and dudets that work and deliver food
that are like, what's the big deal?
Speaker 4 (30:18):
I do that every night.
Speaker 1 (30:20):
I don't understand. I don't get it. But a Red
Sox rookie, a rookie named Rome and Anthony, made the
mistake of was apparently talking about coffee with former Dodger
Walker Buehler and whatnot, and another rookie someone named Marcelo Mayer,
(30:41):
and the next day they ended up having to take,
buy and deliver seventy six different orders of coffee for
the entire Red Sox organization. Can't they buy their own
coffee machine and just put that in the clubhouse? No,
apparently not seventy six orders? There you go, So they
I guess they went over to the Starbucks and loaded up,
