fifth hour podcast coming up later today.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
But this hour number four.
Speaker 1 (00:15):
The Cowboys have redrawn the blueprint now to include getting
Texas quarterback Arch Manning. Believe it or not, that's the
new conspiracy. Also, what did you take away from Jerry
Jones admitting and he was embellishing his interest in keeping
Micah Parsons. Talk about that and what has happened to
(00:37):
the Dallas professional sports scene that was once high for
louton here in twenty twenty five.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
Not good, not good. We'll get to all that and
more right now here it is. Have a great weekend.

Buying show b so our lead this hour, our in
depth coverage continues all night long.
Speaker 2 (02:24):
We've been talking about it. Play the hits. Mom.
Speaker 1 (02:26):
Man, we don't like doing this when there's this one story,
but this is such a massive deal in our little
world that it's a warrance conversation and there's a lot
of different angles to it.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
But we now go to the illuminati of football.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
The fallout continues from the Parsons trade Micah Parsons, the
trade heard around the football world here. Parsons supposedly a
generational once in a lifetime pass rusher who goes to
the Green Bay Packers. Yes, the Packers, who never do
this kind of thing, just did this kind of thing.
And two first round draft picks and defensive tackle Kenny
(03:07):
Clark go outbound to Dallas.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
So now what now?
Speaker 3 (03:13):
What?
Speaker 1 (03:13):
Now? What do the Cowboys do? And do they do?
They have something up their sleeve?
Speaker 2 (03:17):
Here? You hear the chatter, you hear the noise. Maybe not.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
So.
Speaker 2 (03:23):
Franchise legend Dez Bryant.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
Is already out there like the prophet in the desert
des Bryant, and he's putting on social media that Arch Manning,
who will play on the big Fox game of the
weekend there Ohio State and Texas tomorrow, the game everyone's
yapping about in college football. But Arch Manning will have
a star on his helmet. Nobody can tell.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
Me different, does Bryant said?
Speaker 1 (03:51):
Now, does that mean he's going to have like a
star sticker that someone's gonna put on, They're gonna buy
at a store somewhere, a craft store and put that
on his helmet or does he mean he must mean
the Cowboy star?
Speaker 2 (04:01):
Now he's not alone. He's not alone.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
That is not just random speculation that is apparently the
gospel in Cowboy country. So let us discuss the Cowboys
have redrawn.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
That's what they do in politics. They've redrawn the map.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
They've turned the blueprint upside down, and they now put
a target on Texas quarterback Arch Manning.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
Believe it or not? Do you believe it or not?
So I have Reptilian trench coat and.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
Tapwater, and let's go to the deli counter and we're
gonna order a pound of the Gobba ghoul.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
We're gonna get a pound of the Gobba goul.
Speaker 1 (04:43):
Is what we're gonna get. So to lead off on
this one, I am a true believer.
Speaker 2 (04:50):
I believe it or not. I believe it.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
Went down to the haberdasherie and I got fitted for
a size eight fitted tinfoil cap. Now even a seven
year old child can tell you that this trade gives
the Cowboys the stockpile of picks to manipulate to finagle
the NFL Draft. And so even if they're not bad
(05:15):
enough to end up with the.
Speaker 2 (05:17):
Top pick, it's unlikely that'll be the case.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
They will have an opportunity to trade up in the
twenty twenty six April NFL Draft to get the Golden Arch.
The Cowboys now hold the draft day dynamite, multiple first
round picks plus their own first round picks, so that
they have some of those and they can blow up
the board, blow up the board, leap frog a bunch
(05:40):
of other crappy teams. It's dumb and dumber logic. So
you're telling me there's a chance, Yes, Lloyd, I'm telling
you there's a chance. Plus here's the key thing. You say, Well, Ben,
if they have the draft picks, the team that has
the pick still is going to have to give up
the pick, you know, give up the player. And why
would they trade arch Manning if he supposedly is good
and who knows he can out there and throw five interceptions.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
Against Ohio State and end up in a ditch.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
Well, let's just assume the position that he does not
arch man and get a tongue lashing because he sucks
in the game on Saturday, ends up having a good
year and ends up going to the draft, and all
those things happen real quick.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
All those things happen in a winking a nod.
Speaker 1 (06:20):
It takes place so that he's in the draft and Isabelle.
Let's just say for s and giggles. The Arizona Cardinals
have a horrific year and they end up with the
top pick in the draft, and what happens that we're
to fork in the road.
Speaker 2 (06:33):
The key part of this for the Cowboys is.
Speaker 1 (06:37):
The reptilian Manning family, the royal family.
Speaker 2 (06:42):
Of football, because they'll being coode.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
You think the Cowboys are going to have a problem
convincing Archie Manning. Oh yeah, I'd like your kid to
come play here in Dallas. Now, the Manning family, the
power brokers behind that, would be in cahoots on that plan.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
Plus, if you look at the.
Speaker 1 (06:59):
Track record, all is fair in love war and the
NFL Draft. They just did this years ago with Eli Manning.
The Manning family screwed over the old San Diego Chargers
and said, well, we don't want to play in San Diego,
and then Manning ended up with the Giants.
Speaker 2 (07:15):
Was a five hundred quarterback.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
But doyn't pull whatever strings, whatever strings they have to
to hand deliver my you know, the player in this case,
arch Manning to whatever team they want him to go to.
And if they get the Cowboys have the picks now
from the Micah Parsons trade to make that happen. Now
everything's bigger in Texas. Can you imagine the Cowboys trading
(07:40):
Dak Prescott and two first round picks and a second
round pick to whoever the Browns or you name your
bad team to pick Arch Manning. You don't draft Arch,
you negotiate with the Vatican, right, you don't scout him.
You send envoys in there. It's the royal bloodline and
all that. Furthermore, the Cowboy general manager and owner Jerry Jones,
(08:05):
he was asked about the many comments indicating that he
did not want to trade Michaeh Parsons because that had
been the storyline for a while.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
And I think we have the audio on this.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
Here is Jerry Jones commenting on the fact that a
lot of people thought he did not want to trade
Micah Parsons, which happened last night.
Speaker 2 (08:26):
Take you listen.
Speaker 4 (08:27):
Do you really think if I wanted someone to be
interested in him, that I would say, oh, I'm going
to trading.
Speaker 5 (08:32):
It's the opposite.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
It's the opposite, of course. Man, I thank you for
writing it.
Speaker 5 (08:39):
I really did it.
Speaker 2 (08:41):
Yeah, okay, well you're welcome. I didn't write it. I
talked about it.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
So question, what did you take away from that sound
by what do you take away from Jerry Jones and
the admission that he was embellishing his level of interest
in keeping Michaeh Parson.
Speaker 2 (08:55):
So I actually liked this. To me, this is a
bigger deal a lot of people. So it was you
can deal. What's wrong with you? You don't know what
you're talking about.
Speaker 1 (09:03):
Let me explain, because Jerry Jones on this side of
the microphone, Jerry Jones just straight up admitted that when
he kept saying we're not trading Micah Parsons, We're not
trading him, he was essentially playing the role of the
guy on the street corner trying to sell you a
Rolex out of his trench coat. Right. Uh, spoiler alert,
(09:23):
the Rolex ain't real and Jerry's not being real here now,
Jerry is saying the quiet part out loud.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
He's saying the quiet part. He's basically giving you a webinar.
Speaker 1 (09:35):
Or a master class on the art of the con
because it's the art of the con. If if you're
into this kind of then you pay attention to the
sound bites. They make your mouth water. It's kind of
like buying a used car and you go in there
and the salesman tells you, oh man, this car, what
a steal, what an absolute steal. It was owned by
(09:57):
this little old lady and she only drove it to
te on Sunday and the church was only a couple
blocks away.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
And that's it, that's all she drove.
Speaker 1 (10:06):
Meanwhile, you get in the car and the odometers rolling
over like the national debt clock in Times Square. And
here's the thing, this is, this is why sports talk
radio still matters. This is why we have our fifteen
minutes of fame and all that. It does matter because
the GM speak, the coach speak. It's all a carnival
(10:27):
of lies. These guys are Pinocchio's and polos is what
they are. Their noses grow every news conference.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
And Jerry just admitted it. We've known it in most
educated people know it. It's all bull crap.
Speaker 1 (10:42):
These guys will smile and they'll shake your hand and
tell you everything and whisper sweet nothings, and they'll look
you in the eye and they'll spit a loogie on
your cupcake and tell you that it's frosting. They say, oh, yeah,
that's frosting, but no, it's a lugi. No, No, No,
that's that. That's a new kind of frosting. It's got
no calories in it. But no, it's a you just
spit that.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
Out of your mouth. I don't care.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
It's just put to eat the cupcake. You can't even
hate Jerry. You can hate Jerry Jones for a lot
of things, you can't hate him for this. Can't do it.
And you know why he's not wrong right again, it's
it's all part of the deal. You don't go out
in the open market and tell people that your house
has termites.
Speaker 2 (11:23):
You're like, oh, yeah, my house is covered in termites. No,
you talk about the open floor plan.
Speaker 1 (11:29):
You don't say your car's transmission is shot. You highlight
the new paint job on the car. You don't highlight
the transmission being destroyed. And Jerry inflated the value of
the size of the you know, the size of his
desire to keep the player the prize race horse, whatever
you want to say, and then ends up sending the
(11:49):
auction anyway. And Jerry gave you the playbook and he'll
do it again, and he told you how the game's played,
the game within the game, and.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
All that and tinue on and you get away with it.
Speaker 1 (12:01):
No matter how bad the Cowboys are, they're still getting
great ratings because he's Pt Barnaby's Vincent Van, He's Dana White,
He's all that.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
And that's how it goes.
Speaker 1 (12:08):
Now, last thing, lastly, what has happened to the professional
sports scene deep in the heart of Texas in Dallas?
Speaker 2 (12:21):
Holy crap, Welcome to Dante's Inferno.
Speaker 1 (12:28):
That is time for the local sports talk guys in
Dallas to put a billboard up that says, will the
last person who's a star athlete leaving Dallas turn out
the lights?
Speaker 2 (12:41):
The parties over the Mavericks started the bonfire. They did.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
They gave away Luka Dncik, the hardwood Houdini. They got
rid of him, and he was just handed to the
Lakers for peanuts that still had the shell on them.
Right that dufis Coe Harrison, the head dingle Berry pulled
the trigger and it was like a guy that was
was trying to hit the doorbell and hit the fire alarm.
Speaker 2 (13:08):
Well, no, you're supposed to hit the You were supposed
hit the doorbell.
Speaker 1 (13:10):
I hit the fire alarm. That's not what you're supposed
to do. And Luca didn't ask out. He just didn't
miss dinner time, and that upset Nico Harrison, and he
didn't hold the franchise hostage. Nico was not held hostage
by Lucas saying I want out.
Speaker 2 (13:27):
He just got ghosted, That's what happened.
Speaker 1 (13:30):
And then you got the Rangers. You talk about a
lukewarm soup. The Texas Ranger port ed and Arlington, a
team built on the brittle bones of old pitchers who
spent more time in rehab than a rock band back
in the old days, back in the eighties and the nineties, right,
And they're not bad enough to tank the Rangers. They're
(13:52):
not good enough to actually contend. They're like a fox contend.
Speaker 2 (13:55):
They're just kind of floating around the Rangers in baseball.
Speaker 1 (13:58):
Purgatory, waiting for the next Tommy John surgery to hit
like a meteor. Now, they haven't traded, to my knowledge,
they haven't traded a household name on that team yet.
I'd be very concerned if I was Corey Seeger and
he might be out. And then, of course, as we've
talked about all night long, here the Dallas Cowboys saying
bye bye to Michaeh Parsons because his agent was a douche.
Speaker 2 (14:22):
That's essentially why the trade happened.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
Jerry Jones had a deal and then the agent's like, no,
that's not a deal because I wasn't involved in it. Well,
Michael Parsons said it was a deal, but it doesn't matter.
Speaker 2 (14:33):
I'm the agent. I have to get the deal.
Speaker 1 (14:35):
And so then Michaeh Parsons, he defended his agent, said
all right, you got to negotiate with my agent. Jerry
said no, and that's it. So I'm determined, after several
minutes of deliberation, this clear breach.
Speaker 2 (14:49):
Of decorum by the Mavericks and the Cowboys and.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
To some degree the Rangers, that there's extra flooride in
the tap water in the Dallas area, that this isn't
just a bad sporty year.
Speaker 2 (15:03):
There's bad years and good years and all that.
Speaker 1 (15:05):
No, no, what's happened in the last however many months.
It's been Luca traded for nothing and Micah Parsons traded
for a couple scratcher tickets, which is essentially nothing.
Speaker 2 (15:17):
It is a sporty apocalypse, is what it is. And Dallas,
they didn't just lose stars.
Speaker 1 (15:23):
They lost guys in their prime, not even yet fully
in their athletic prime. They lost their identity, the swag,
all that stuff, and it's like they got cursed by
some vengeful sports deity somewhere and maybe they did something
they weren't supposed to do. It a tailgate or so.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
I don't know. And there's a photo that several of
you have sent.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
Me, and for our blind listeners, I'll describe what the
photo is, but it's really the photo that sums up
the entire year for the Cowboys and Dallas and.
Speaker 2 (15:55):
Also the Mavericks. Side by side is a swap. On
one side, you have.
Speaker 1 (16:03):
Micah Parsons holding up smiling, holding up a Luca Dallas
Mavericks jersey autograph. On the other side of the photo,
you have Micah Parsons his buddy there, Luca holding up
a Micah Parsons Cowboys jersey also autograph. They exchange jerseys
and now they're gone. So what's next? Are the Dallas
(16:27):
Stars gonna go back to Minnesota and become the North
Stars again? Is Dirk unretiring to join Luca with the Lakers?
Speaker 2 (16:32):
What do we got? Jerry Jones launching.
Speaker 1 (16:34):
A new podcast called How to Piss Off Star Players
in ten Days or Less? Guaranteed, and we'll see the
hits just keep coming, baby, one after another. And these
are self inflicted wounds, self inflicted wounds.

Ozzi Waz got one of those cool rings from mister
Irrigation all the way down in Australia.
Speaker 2 (19:53):
That's pretty neat.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
And I don't do shout outs, so I'm not going
to say good morning strippers, because strippers are not up
at this hour. They're going to bed at this hour,
meaning they're not waking up. Well, strippers are not waking
up at this hour. A real stripper is going to
bed at this hour.
Speaker 2 (20:07):
They're not, They're not. I don't think they're going to
bed yet. Yeah, not yet, not yet.
Speaker 1 (20:12):
What about what I like on the East Coast, though,
we're going to bed right five thirty in the morning.
Speaker 7 (20:16):
Yeah, yeah, but that's the West Coast. Ones are still
working right now.
Speaker 5 (20:20):
They still they're.
Speaker 1 (20:22):
Still working and making that money. As Poppy would say,
that bling bling. And when I when I first started
working at Fox Sports Radio, I worked the weekend overnight shift.
Speaker 2 (20:32):
It was one of my first shifts. And I was
a single guy.
Speaker 1 (20:35):
And my guy, my producer, this guy named Julio. We
would go down to the Denny's on Se Palvida, it's
right down the street from the studio, and we'd go
there right after the show, be early in the morning,
and it was like a boxing match, like a Mike
Tyson boxing match. You had the pimps and the hose
(20:55):
at the at the Denny's and it was wild.
Speaker 8 (20:58):
Man.
Speaker 1 (20:58):
We saw fights, we saw people get arrested. It was
it was so entertaining. The food was I guess it's
gotten better. But the food then was terrible. But we
didn't go for the food. We went to see the show.
It was like it was like dinner in a show,
or in this case, it was breakfast in the show.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
And now I have no signature thrown. Oh it was wild.
I have so many fond memories.
Speaker 1 (21:21):
I could wax poetic, but we don't have time for that.
So let's get back to the calls and we'll say
hello to Eenie Meenie miney mode. Let's say hello to
j Dot in Utah. Hello, jay Dot, we saw him

Well said, well said. This guy's a master artist.
Speaker 1 (21:57):

hours or did you get right back to you tell

Speaker 9 (22:01):
No, no, no, no no, I said, at my Holy.
Speaker 10 (22:04):
Bird's house, we did some microshrooms and hit that tree.
Speaker 2 (22:20):
You know, some people would some people would filter what
they say.
Speaker 1 (22:23):
Some people would say, I'm not going to talk about
going doing shrooms. Not you.
Speaker 2 (22:26):
That's the beauty of jay Dot.
Speaker 1 (22:28):
You're like, listen, I'm an open book, baby, I'm an
open book right.

Speaker 1 (23:47):
All right, take a breath. So Slug had a big
bend and and the side. I don't want to embellish
this because you know on radio, the drink that Slug
had was about the size of the Pacific Ocean and uh,
it was unbelievable and uh and so I mean, my god,
if you had five of those, holy crap. Anyway, all right,

Speaker 12 (30:41):
That segment was terrible of callers right there. You had
a bunch of drug addicts come on, and then just
a bunch of complete losers that have no social skills whatsoever.
Speaker 1 (30:50):
But but you're also a loser, so you're right in
line with everyone else.
Speaker 2 (30:54):
It's the segment of losers. I'm a loser, you're a loser.
We're all losers.
Speaker 12 (30:58):
Could you could you describe that to again? That tore
me up, I cried, I used four tishes and blew
my nose. That was like a real special moment. You
got that photo with Luca and Micah. You know you've
been talking about Michael Parsons. I don't know who Michah
Parson is. But I'm on hold for a thousand hours
this year on this show.
Speaker 2 (31:14):
Let's me to congratulations.
Speaker 1 (31:16):
You always remember when you crossed the rubicon of a
thousand hours on hold for an overnight talk show. Life
is going really well for you when you've been on
hold for an overnight talk radio show.
Speaker 12 (31:26):
Yeah, but here Michael Parsons, I would have no idea
who this guy is. That was such a beautiful moment.
The two guys, they're holding up their jerseys, Luca, Micah.
You'll never see two blind people doing that ever. You know,
you'll never see two blind people.
Speaker 2 (31:41):
Up there, Yeah, because they're blind. You know you'll never
see it because you.
Speaker 12 (31:45):
Know, But but I lost my eyesight on this show.
Listening to this show, you know you did.
Speaker 1 (31:51):
I when I first when I first started having conversations
with Lion Scott, you were able to see yeah, yeah.
Speaker 12 (31:57):
And everything was going pre rolls, laughing at the other
blind people I was like, Ben, you know I might
be going blind. I have like a real aggressive eye
of these like they say, I'm going to go blind
pretty fast. So I did like yeah, but then it happened.
Speaker 1 (32:09):
I remember that you so you know what I look
like because you saw photos of me kind of before
your vision went away.
Speaker 2 (32:15):
Yeah, but I was fat, so I lost some weight.
I don't look like that anymore. I lost Yeah, this
is what you used to look like.
Speaker 12 (32:20):
I mean, your faith was like your cheeks were like
in front of your whole faith, and the top of
your head look kind of small. And you're younger.
Speaker 2 (32:29):
I never never looked like that. You're lying, you're making
that up. I never looked like that, even at my fattest.
Speaker 12 (32:38):
Yeah, you have like your crew cup with Ben. I
met Ben when he was twenty five on the radio
and Ben would complain like about life and I loved
it so much because I loved him plaining and I
always think that my life sucks. That's why nobody talks
to me. I just calling the radio all the time.
So it was like, well, you.
Speaker 1 (32:55):
You always have the great thing about blind Scott is
I've known you over the years, is you always have
someone to talk to you. You have your other personalities you
can talk to, so there's always someone there for you
to talk to.
Speaker 12 (33:05):
Oh yeah, I have all these ideas. I'm coming up
and I planned a whole event at LAP Boston for
the show. We're going to destroy that comedy club in
West Hollywood. I'm gonna tell it right now. How you
can do something like that. Like, here's the thing, though,
you could do what if you want in those comedy clubs.
Speaker 10 (33:19):
I used to.
Speaker 12 (33:19):
I took a shot at them. You can become more
famous on this show than in those clubs. If nobody
knows who you are, trust me. I used to go
in those clubs in Boston. It's not really a thing
anymore though that this bank. You know, most of them
close down, So it's good to go to those.
Speaker 1 (33:33):
Yeah, support your clubs are still still a thing here
in La anyway.
Speaker 2 (33:37):
There's a bunch of commedies.
Speaker 12 (33:38):
Those are the callers we need. If we need callers,
we need those people need to call here. We don't
need those clowns calling. If you want good callers, you
need those they can get who can give them the
warm line. Blind Emmitt has the warm line. You know
who can give some people the warm line, some of
the good callers.
Speaker 2 (33:55):
You know, I don't think we're not allowed to get.
Speaker 12 (33:57):
To where he told me blind EMMTT told me you
gotta you gotta kick flying off Marster.
Speaker 2 (34:02):
Marcel's by the way, Marcel's not on hold. I put
up Marcel.
Speaker 4 (34:05):
He's hey, where yay?
Speaker 12 (34:07):
Where did he go?
Speaker 10 (34:08):
What do you think that?
