Talking Bay's ball. It's our numb berd two, our number two.
The final four underway. The Ben Malers Show continues with
this hour of the podcast, Happy Monday to you, and
we start out in Canada. All the Mariners fell behind early,
(00:20):
but they end up taking Game one of the American
League Championship Series Toronto starred Vladimir Guerrero Junior said the
Jays loss, He said of it, quote, we just didn't hit.
Does this explanation work for you? Also, how do you
process cal Raley and Seattle winning game numb ber one?
(00:41):
We'll discuss that. And in the world of college football,
Packers defensive end Micah Parson says James Franklin quote deserved
better after Penn State's dismissal over the weekend. Is that
based in any reality. We will examine the evidence and
we will decide right now here. It is our number two.
(01:04):
A little Mariner magic. North of the Border. Welcome in
the beginning of another hour of the Ben Mahler Show.
We are in the air everywhere a consortium as we

(02:14):
the tire Buying Show be So I lead this hour
from baseball as the final four underway in Toronto, the
curtain going up on Game number one of the American
League Championship Series. There baseball the spotlight not to its
(02:35):
own because they start well. The Sunday night NFL game
is going on, but it's the beauty of Rob Manford
and the geniuses at Major League Baseball. God forbid you
start on a Tuesday when you have the stage to yourself,
but I digress. So the Mariners opening things up in
Canada and a surprise as Bryce Miller starting the game.
(02:56):
A couple of days after the Seattle baseball team played
a fifteen our thriller over the Detroit baseball team and
Bryce Miller six sharp innings and Jorge Polanco getting it
done there yet again. He had the go ahead ribby
single in the sixth inning, the Mariners getting it done
a domination situation after falling behind early, and the Blue
(03:20):
Jays had the brief one nothing lead, but the Mariners
end up winning it three to one as they returned
to the American League Championship Series Seattle for the first
time in twenty four years. Once a generation, the Mariners
get to the League Championship Series. Cal Rolly adding the
tying solo home run, the second home run he's had
here in the postseason led baseball with sixty homewerns. Did
(03:43):
Aaron judge at a home run in the Ales? No,
he did not. Oh he didn't play in the Ale,
but he did rub some suntan lotionan onto the Bahamas,
so he's got that going for him, Aaron Judge. So anyway,
the Blue Jays will be right back at it. Game
two will be the early game, five o'clock eastern, two
o'clock in the West against the Mariners, who will start
(04:05):
Logan Gilbert in that game. He threw thirty four pitches
in the fifteen inning game the other night. But the
better story is in the losing locker room. So let
us discuss the question here. Toronto star Vladimir Guerrero, who
did bupkiss in this game? Vladimir Guerrero said of Toronto's loss,
(04:27):
he said, quote, we just didn't hit close. Quote Does
that explanation work for you? Short and sweet? Four words?
Vladimir Guerrero said, we just didn't hit all right. So
my observations, I got drug store, MythBusters and cartoon size,
and we will combine all of these things together and
(04:49):
we are going to say hello to Krusty the k
clown is what we're going to do, all right? So
number one? All right? Number one? So I'm shaking my head. No,
I do not approve the explanation, while it is factually correct.
From Vladimir Guerrero Junior. The Toronto offense was flatter than
a pancake in Saskatoon, A nice diner there in Saskatoon.
(05:12):
That is accurate. This was supposed to be the Honky
Tonk Jubilee for the Toronto baseball team. You look at
that scene there in Toronto. The game was on Fox
and you look at the building there. The ballpark was
absolutely buzzing. You got that cheating a hole George Springer,
forever tainted as a cheat from the twenty seventeen cheating Astros.
(05:37):
George Springer hits a leadoff moonshot bang. Bang must have
been a home run because it was a bang on
the trash can and the place was louder than a
rush concert. And then they had to play the rest
of the game, and then they had to play the
rest of the game and nothing. Absolutely Crickets Crickets, zip Bow,
(05:58):
the baseball team from Canada, had one hit in twenty
eight at bats. One for twenty eight. Now that works
out to an thirty six batting average, which I'm told
is not good. That was their offense. It was like
a tax ride off one for twenty eight. The rest
of the game. The Jays house man was not was
(06:19):
not Drake. They did not have Drake. They had Limp Biscuit.
Keep part of that limp, because the Toronto Blue Jays
very limp their total buzzkill for the Toronto side of
things on this one. After the Springer home run, it
was an early Christmas carol, even before Halloween, a silent night.
They had that going for them. So the Blue Jays,
you look at this offense, and they were really flexing
(06:41):
against the Yankees, right they for the most part, even
the games they lost, exception maybe one, they had a
really good offense going really good in that ballpark. The
accusations had been made that Toronto was up to some
funny business because they've been so much better at home
offensively than on the road, and so they're using some
kind of special cameras to spy and do they know
(07:03):
something we don't know. Anyway, in this game, the Blue Jays,
they needed to go down to the drug store right
across the street from the ballpark there, go to the
pharmacy at the drug store and pick up the bottle
that there's a prescription for them. It's a little bottle
of blue pills. Because they did not rise to the occasion.
They did not rise to the occasion. Here you only
(07:24):
get one opportunity. I might be wrong with this but
I think I'm right. You only get one opportunity to
make an opening impression in the American League Championship Series.
You get one opportunity here, and how did that go?
Let's see you set the tone they what kind of
tone did they set? Alarm bells? Yeah? Not good? And
(07:45):
so so much for planting the flag. The Mariners were
the team that planted the flag. The Blue Jays, they
tripped across the border is what they did there. And
as for Vladimir Guerrero and his quote saying about the offense,
we just didn't hit. That was his quote, right, we
just didn't which is again no kidding, Sherlock. I understand.
I watched the game understanding you didn't hit. All right,
(08:07):
we all saw that you did not hit. You did
not do much of anything. It was very boring to
watch you attempt to do anything, kind of like Wayne
Gretzky coming out and saying, oh, we just didn't score
enough goals. You think you think now? I prefer the
Mike Tomlin approach to these things. I always go with
Mike Tomlin. Went in doubt, throw Mike Tomlin quote out.
When the Steelers don't play well, tom will come out
(08:28):
with some over the top quote. For example, Tomlin's quote.
I think it was last year when things were not
going well for the Steelers, and he said, we make
no excuses. He said, we seek no comfort. We didn't
play well. Coach well, period, hardstop, boom done. That's it.
That's all. That's all you need right there. That should
be carved in to the Toronto Blue Jays dugout right there,
(08:53):
just a nude. Okay, I get it. Now. The good
news for Toronto and the bad news for Seattle is
there is no such thing as momentum. It just doesn't exist.
There is no momentum. So you don't have to worry
about this some kind of spillover a situation that you
just put the baby to bed and then's Game two
is brand new game and we'll see what you got
now on the winner side of things, winners on the
(09:16):
winter side of things not as good as story. How
do you process the big dumper cal Raley and Seattle
winning Game one with Gusto? All right, so on this one,
this is a myth buster specially, it's one of the
things I love. The media narrative gets slashed apart because
we're not part of the mainstream. I don't get paid
like mainstream media. We do the thing overnight. Here, we're
(09:38):
not mainstream. Mainstream is six am to six pm. Anything
after that is not mainstream. So we're on the fringes
in the shadows. Do Do Do Do Do Do Doo.
But this was a myth Busters October edition. It really
was right because remember all the handwringing and the gas baggery.
(10:00):
I don't if you paid any attention to Maybe you weren't.
You were watching football a weekend. But if you're a
baseball person, the story was, oh my god, the Mariners
are porked. They have no chance. Right they played fifteen innings,
two hundred pitches against the Tigers on Friday. Now they
have to fly across North America and play right away
(10:21):
on Sunday. There's no chance they can win. Of course,
the problem with that is they discounted. They discounted the
fact that they were not traveling by stage coach from
Washington to Ontario. They were not doing that. Here it
turns out that when you travel and you stay at
five star hotels, you have chartered flights, private air travel,
(10:42):
you have police escorts. You're not exactly taking the Oregon Trail.
You don't have to worry about getting dysentery. Nobody died
of dysentery from the Manners traveling party on their way
to Toronto. So the Mariners didn't just survive. They obviously
flourished in this situation. Here they showed up and after
that early kick to the shins by the Toronto baseball team,
(11:05):
the rest of the way it was bigfoot, heavily caffeinated,
holding a Louisville slugger and just going for here. There
was a surgical game on the mound in the American
League Championship Series. Now, I don't know how much of
this is Toronto just being bad. I don't have Bryce
Miller on my really good card. Should I have him
on there? I don't have him on there. I don't
(11:26):
have him. Not a list. I have like a big
board card thing, not a list. Terry Neway, but Bryce Miller.
I look at him. I was like, you know, okay, fine,
average major league starting pitcher, nothing over the top grade.
You good during the regular season, hadn't been all that
great in the playoffs, unless I'm maybe my TV was
broken again vintage though not Jamie Mooy. It was like
(11:47):
Jamie Moyer with more gusto, a few extra ticks on
the gun there for the Mariners. They're slicing up, slicing
and dicing the Toronto Blue Jays. There was six innings
of one run ball and painting the strike zone like
he was Bob Ross with the paint brush there, and
good job by him and the big dumper doing big
(12:09):
dumper things, sitting a home run there, boom, yachtse longball,
ding dong, whatever you want to say. Their home run
for him. So there you go, just like that home
field advantage gone. Although we do know since the Mariners
are like an honorary Canadian team, right because so many
people from Vancouver come down to watch the Mariners, and
(12:29):
there'll be a lot of Canadians that make their way
down across the border there when they get back to Seattle.
But there's a game again in Toronto later on this afternoon,
but no home field advantage. And it was supposed to
be the party, as we said, supposed to be a
party there Ballpark formerly known as the sky Gnome back
in the day. Now it's got a corporate name, but buzzing.
(12:50):
The fans showed up early there. They had the blue.
That's a lot of powder blue jerseys. When they showed
the crowd and ready to scream their lungs out, and
there were just a handful of mayors, not many, not many,
and how did that go?
Speaker 2 (13:04):
Well?
Speaker 1 (13:05):
That did not go well for the home team at all.
And so very savvy performance for the Mariners. They're a
good start, very un Mariner like, I would say, not
very un Mariner like. There it's a team that's like, well,
that's a nice little story out of the Pacific Northwest,
and it's not approaching it that way, not exactly approaching
(13:26):
it that way here after falling behind early, coming back
and monster mashing here and so there you go. They
took the early punch and bounced right back. And that's
where we are now we move ahead in the broadcast.
We'll get back to the baseball. But I did want
to go to college football. We had a very high
profile shakeup in college football while the NFL was being played,
(13:50):
and then later on baseball we had a little wackety
whack as a prominent head coach has been decommissioned pre season,
top five and all of college football fired before Halloween.
Hard to do, It's hard to do. But it happened.
James Franklin gone, Nana, Ana, good bye, I see you later. Hey,
(14:16):
going Franklin out. Now, that led to condemnation from some
powerful alumni, you believe it or not, of Penn State.
You'd think after what is transpired here in the last
couple of years, that this would not be something to
be upset about. But there we saw it. The question
(14:36):
on this one packer's defensive end and a former player
for James Franklin, Micah Parsons says, James Franklin quote deserved
better close quote after Penn State dismissed him. So the
question is, is that based in any kind of reality,
did James Franklin get a raw deal from Penn State?
(15:02):
All right, So with all honor, with all due respect,
Michael Parsons is out of his bloody mind. Okay, he
got the utmost James Franklin respect. Do you understand when
you're at one of these power schools. I think we
all know this, whether you're a fan of Penn State.
I'm not a Penn State fan by any means, but
(15:23):
I know watching college football casually, I don't talk about
it much because it's not as popular as the NFL,
but watching the big time schools, the power, the elite
of the elite, the top of the power conferences and
Notre name which is not in a conference, but Notre
name se Michigan, Georgia, Alabama, Penn State, Ohio State. That
(15:46):
pedigree of school. It's how you do against the top teams.
It's how you do in the made for TV matchups.
That is what separates and twenty five games against top
ten teams, or James Franklin and at Penn State four
and twenty one, four and twenty one against top ten teams.
(16:06):
How about the top five? One in fifteen, one and
fifteen against top five teams, And you can't have that
record and then claim somehow there's some kind of mistreatment.
It's just not true. In fact, I would argue that
James Franklin got the ultimate, the ultimate celebration. This is
(16:30):
one of the great things in his life, James Franklin,
because he was failing, he was drowning as coach at
Penn State, and they rewarded him with one of those
cartoon sized lottery checks. You know those giant oversized checks
when you win the lottery. This was there. I want
one of those Pennsylvania Lottery. They're pretty cool. He left
(16:54):
with forty nine million dollars. Penn State will be paying
him through twenty thirty one. Forty nine million dollars for
them minute not to work. Now you should be I realized,
after taxes and all that, it's probably like twenty two
million or something like that. But still you should not
ever have to work again. You should be set for life.
(17:16):
If he wants to coach, he can coach. But this
is not a sad thing. This is the ultimate to
think that you suck so much that somebody wrote a check,
some booster. Now, the rumors are that Adidas, who's got
a big deal with Penn State, they're the ones. I
don't know if that's true or not. I read that
on the internet. I read a lot of things. I
don't know whether that's accurate or not. But the rumor
is that Penn State so embarrassed and they've got the money.
(17:38):
They're like, they need Penn State to be good because
they want to sell overpriced athletic gear and no one's
going to buy overpriced gear with Penn State's logo on it,
with the Adidas logo if they blow and right now
they blow. They lost a winless UCLA. Now you see
LA came back and kick the snot out of Michigan
State over the weekend. But my gut, but you look
(18:00):
at that and also the Northwestern loss this weekend. So
no pity party and all that. Uh, this was this
was a platinum handshake that James Franklin got. It was
he was given handcuffs, golden handcuffs. He got golden handcuffs.
He didn't just get left on the tarmac, right, He's not.
He didn't show up drunk like Steve Sarkis in at
(18:22):
usc and get a rude departure Lane Kiffin on the tarmac.
None of that stuff, right, he got. If the math
is right on this, James Franklin the second largest go away,
don't come back. Check this side of Jim bow Fisher.
He got the Jimbo. He got the Jimbo. And he
(18:45):
deserves better. How does he deserve better? He'll he'll end
up these guys, these coaches are cockroaches. He'll end up
somewhere else at a medium sized program, and then he'll
have a couple of good years in some power five
school or top power five school, will bring James Strankln back.
But the ones that deserve better were the players at
Penn State. The people that watch Penn State football. To
(19:07):
lose to again UCLA look like they were't gonna win
a game, and they kicked your ass on offense up
and down the field. They scored whenever they wanted to
and lowly Northwestern. I mean, that's embarrassing. I'm and you
have a roster that was a top five roster before
the year, and Mike is playing the loyalty card from
(19:28):
the bottom of it was I get I understand he
likes Michaeh. Parsons. He played for James Franklin. He obviously
has an allegiance to James Franklin. Franklin went out and
recruited him. Micah Parsons makes a lot of money now
he believes he would not apparently have made that much
money if he had not run into James Franklin. I
get it, fine, whatever that being said, Let's not pretend
(19:50):
this is some kind of Shakespearean betrayal by Penn State. No,
it's big boy football. It's semi professional. In fact, the
amount of money being paid to Penn State is professional football.
And you're getting a big boy, check to go away,
and I'll tell you what. Right now, I've been at
this company for like twenty five years. Fox Sports Radio,
been here a long time. If they wrote me a
(20:11):
check today for forty nine million dollars, I would never
say a bad word about them, and I would go
away smiling, and I'd be very happy, and you would
be too. Wherever you work, I don't care how long
you've worked at that company. If they cut one of
those giant checks, you never have to work again. You'd
be like oh man, and you fail to live up
to expectations in a results based industry, that's what happens.
(20:32):
It is the Ban Malo Show. Will take your calls
eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox. I've been warned.
I don't think this is actually gonna happen, but I've
been warned that we're gonna be overwhelmed with Mariner fans
on KJR, that we're just gonna be overwhelmed our home
in Seattle. So we'll see see whether that's the case
or not. But we will press on here. We'll take
your calls the whole thing. If you would like to
(20:54):
be part again. Eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox
that's eight seven, seven, nine, six three sixty nine. If
you want to be part of the program. It was
a speechless kind of an afternoon. We'll get to that. Also,

to all that and we will do it next.

(24:23):
magic of radio is this conversation you not a previous conversation.

the Paths. Is that right?
Speaker 1 (24:51):
Yes? That was much more of the type of football
you expect from the Chiefs. Yes.
Speaker 6 (24:56):
Yeah, And so you're like, wow, you know, I think
I might put some money on the chief You can
say the same thing about you can say the same
thing about U c l A.
Speaker 7 (25:04):
Wow, that's the whole that's that's a whole different team.
Speaker 2 (25:07):
All of a sudden, are.
Speaker 1 (25:08):
You you want you think those things are similar?
Speaker 6 (25:12):
Well, in a degree, you know, I'll tell I'll tell
you that if you have if you f C and
you see LA played today, I would take you c
l A right now, not UFC.
Speaker 1 (25:23):
Okay, you're a prisoner of the moment here, Hugh. Don't
be a prisoner. That's about job.
Speaker 6 (25:27):
Well I'm saying today, I'm not saying. I'm not saying
at the.
Speaker 2 (25:30):
End of the season.
Speaker 1 (25:32):
Well, you see, I looked the way they looked the
first three or four games of the year like they
were never going to win a game. It looked like
it looked like they'd never played football before.
Speaker 6 (25:41):
And then they dropped the head off of the whole program.
And then all of a sudden, there's a new head
of the program and it's whoa, that's a whole different organization.
Speaker 1 (25:51):
Okay, So what is your point.
Speaker 6 (25:54):
Well, I think it's similar to the Chiefs that.
Speaker 1 (25:57):
Who did they did they fire Andy Reid? Why did
you not take you didn't tell me? Coop they fired
Andy Raid. You didn't tell me that. Why was he
Why was he on the sidelines? Why was Spagnolo on
the sidelines? Why were they all there? I don't understand.
Speaker 3 (26:11):
I don't know.
Speaker 6 (26:11):
Maybe they put something different in the kool aids.
Speaker 1 (26:14):
Yes, they spiked it. They spiked it with steroids, Yes,
filled with steroids. Just kidding you, you understand you. I
know you're trying to mold this call around because you
know I was not talking Ucile football. And you're little,
you're a little horny because you say has won a
couple of games. Yes, you're kind of excited.
Speaker 3 (26:34):
You them? What brought them up?
Speaker 1 (26:37):
Because I brought him up because of James Franklin, because
that was what began the demise of James Franklin. Well, actually,
all those losses the top ten teams is what did
in Jim.
Speaker 6 (26:48):
Frank I'm not making any point for you.
Speaker 1 (26:52):
I am not making anybody, does it, Loraino? Does it
sound like I'm making a point for this guy?
Speaker 2 (26:57):
Absolutely?
Speaker 1 (26:58):
On the five? Come on, did you lose? Exactly? What's
wrong with you? You? And by the way, I know
Rick new Heeisel's kid is at ucl A. New Heel's
on in t you know, TV Land at CBS or whatever,
and people love New Heisel. But can we slow down
a little bit here? I mean this, my god, Megan,
it seemed like New Isel's kids, the second coming of Lombardi. Relax.
Speaker 6 (27:19):
He's he's pretty cute.
Speaker 1 (27:21):
Though, you know, not my type. But you know, whatever
you like, you know, you go, Franklin.
Speaker 6 (27:28):
Who else are they going to get?
Speaker 1 (27:30):
Penn State?
Speaker 6 (27:31):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (27:32):
Well, they got a lot of money. It's a power school.
It's a big state school. What's that?
Speaker 6 (27:39):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (27:39):
Yeah, yeah, good luck? All right? Are you doing anybody
in any of the UCLA propaganda?
Speaker 6 (27:45):
Do you have any questions for me?
Speaker 1 (27:47):
Let me check? Is it is that? How this works?
Am I supposed to ask?
Speaker 2 (27:50):
To call?
Speaker 1 (27:50):
This question be? What's what do you have for lunch?
Speaker 2 (27:56):
What did I have for lunch?
Speaker 6 (27:58):
I had a a Peter Fanily Okay, well, yeah, I
gotta hang up on you on that note.
Speaker 1 (28:03):
Thank go away. I don't want to hear about it.
Peter Sandwich. My god, all right, let's see here. Oh
my my guy in Houston hung up. I was he
was in the on deck circle. He hung up. Bad
job by David Houston. He was gonna be right there,
but he did not stay online. Let's say hello to
the King of Kurds. Hello, King of Kurds.
Speaker 2 (28:25):
Well, say, David Houston.
Speaker 1 (28:28):
Wasn't Yes, he was an ass one one thousand and two,
one thousand hole.
Speaker 2 (28:37):
Oh, I didn't do Sorry, I don't. I don't know
how to talk to the garbage can. But also we
need to do a Dodgers brewer's butt.
Speaker 1 (28:47):
Okay, all right, what would you like to lose? What
do you want to lose?
Speaker 2 (28:52):
I mean, I'm assuming we're gonna lose.
Speaker 1 (28:55):
Yeah, But that's that's the proper way. That's a proper
way to approach this.
Speaker 2 (29:01):
I'm just happy. The Rams won, the Broncos won, the
Packers won. Roberto's Raiders one like Eddie's white in the
San Diego Chargers.
Speaker 1 (29:14):
Everyone won, everyone won. Yes, everyone's everyone's happy.
Speaker 7 (29:18):
Everyone's except the Jets.
Speaker 1 (29:20):
Well, no one's a Jets fan on this show, though. Well,
the Jets, they got closer to the number one pick
in the draft, so they when the Jets lose, win
So and if you, if if you look at your
big board, I know chie's of courage, you study the
NFL draft. The Jets at oh and six would have
(29:40):
the number one pick. Cleveland would have the number two pick.
Baltimore would be at number three.
Speaker 2 (29:45):
That obviously the Browns they get the number two pick.
Speaker 1 (29:50):
Well, they would get the number two pick. It's based
on strength of schedule. The way the formula works the
opponents using all seventeen opponents current record, the Browns would
be second, followed by Baltimore, Miami, New Orleans, Tennessee.
Speaker 2 (30:06):
So Brown's always dropping a duce on the league. Nonetheless,
Brewers Dodgers, We're probably gonna lose. But I feel like
I'm the name of sandwich after you.
Speaker 1 (30:15):
Oh okay, all right, well listen now you now you've
got my Now you got my attention. Now you got
my damn attention. Okay, We're in this now. I what
what what can I get? I can give you, like
multiple golden tickets. I can give you that. What else
can I give this guy? I don't know.
Speaker 2 (30:29):
I already got to do.
Speaker 1 (30:31):
You don't want a golden ticket? All right? I mean
I love what else would you? What would you like?
What can I provide you? What can I do for you?
Speaker 2 (30:39):
I don't know? You set the boundaries. I would love
to be catering to the mount of militia and letting
it out. But I just feel like it's very odd
that the Dodgers And.
Speaker 1 (30:51):
Now can I can I design the sandwich? Am I
allowed to design the sandwich? Can I come up with
the ingredients of Okay?
Speaker 2 (30:58):
I posted on instagrams Take on or not coops take
my take on the dunnerl ledges based on his bias.
Speaker 1 (31:06):
Yeah, all right, Mine will have a lot of cheese
and a lot of meat my sandwich, and it'll it'll
be the number It'll be the number one. This is
like a real restaurant here. This is not some fraud operation, right,
This is a legitimate operation.
Speaker 2 (31:20):
Oh, there's multiple legit operations. And I will even make
a Michelin staresque dish.
Speaker 1 (31:27):
Oh look at that. Now we're talking. Now, this is
gonna be big for the Wisconsin meat and greet that
we're gonna do here. This is gonna be mass I
told you, I told you, I know I'm in man. Listen,
be great. I can see I, me, my brother hang out,
you hang out with all the fans of the show.
Would be wonderful. Now, I think it needs to be
a Michelin style chicken strip meal. No, no, no, no, no,
(31:47):
I like that like, what about like a deconstructed chicken
strip or the breadings on the side. That's the stupidest
thing you've ever said, your mike off. In fact, do
fifteen push ups right now, do some burpies right now.
Come on, she's actually doing something.
Speaker 7 (32:09):
Wind springs down the hall?
Speaker 1 (32:11):
Yeah, go down?
Speaker 7 (32:13):
What's what? What was Russell Wilson doing on the plane?
Speaker 1 (32:19):
What's that? King occurs? What's that? Buddy?
Speaker 2 (32:22):
I would love to just do a little challenge with
not because I haven't called in the wife and.
Speaker 1 (32:29):
Listen if you want to the Brewer, if the Brewer,
if the Brewers win, we'll we'll, we'll, we'll do something.
How about that.
Speaker 2 (32:37):
Wine? Can we do a meet and greet over weekend
of your choice? If the Dodgers, Yeah, I mean, we'll
do it.
Speaker 1 (32:49):
Do you want me to come in out in the
winter though, I don't know. Don't you want to come on?
The weather's nice? Three bars Friday, Saturday, Sunday, three bars
Friday Saturday, so the whole So I have to take
off some show son night and the Monday, so i'd
have to take that out.
Speaker 2 (33:02):
We'll do a podcast from him and everything.
Speaker 1 (33:05):
You okay, all right, I'll we'll make it happen. I
thank you. I gotta go here, but there there you go.
So I feel like we're either way, I'm gonna win.
I feel like this is not like a loss for me,
and there's a win wind flues like a sandwich named
after me. We get a Mallard meet and greet in Wisconsin.
I think that's a win win. You put on your sandwich,
bro I haven't thought about it, you know, bro Ed,
(33:27):
I gotta think about it. This is a very serious thing.
I take this stuff seriously. Does your sandwich? I have
been gifted uh in the great honors and other people
win Marconi Awards, Coward gets paid seventeen million dollars a year, whatever.
But my reward is food named after you. Yeah, that's
my my reward. It is the Ben Mahler Show. As
(33:48):
we navigate the overnight hours and amazing. This is like
a baseball injury. So Anthony Richardson the Colts had be
taken to the hospital. He fractured the orbital bone. That
sounds very painful. No pregame warm ups. He was warming
up with one of those elastic bands and snap and
(34:08):
he snap right in the old eye. There they claim
it was it malfunctioned. I think you think obviously, oh
my goshding me. This is why you should not work
out with those bands because every once in a while they.
Speaker 7 (34:26):
Yeah the resistance bans, yeah, bush them too hard?
Speaker 1 (34:29):
Yeah, right in your eye. Oh but to do that
to your orbital bone, how much.
Speaker 7 (34:34):
That must I know?
Speaker 6 (34:34):
Right?
Speaker 1 (34:35):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (34:36):
Yeah yeah.
Speaker 1 (34:36):
So he had to go to the hospital and be
out for for a while. So the Colts had a
different backup quarterback as they came back to beat the
Cardinals in their game, and the speechless that would be
none other than Jerry Jones. I'm talking more about the Cowboys. Later,
Cowboys lost to lowly Carolina and Jerry Jones skipping the
postgame media session so embarrassed. Normally, Jerry didn't care when
(35:00):
the Cowboys lose because just more people talk about the Cowboys,
but he was so humiliated by that loss that he
took the cowardly root Jerry Jones and did not talk
to the media. Which makes you wonder whether or not
someone's losing their job in Dallas where there's gonna have
a human sacrifice like the Aztecs for one of the
assistant coaches there. It is the Ben Mahler Show, We've
(35:21):
got Mallard of the third degree. Here is the Insta trivia.
Seattle's Bryce Miller became the first pitcher to allow a
leadoff homer and complete six or more innings without allowing
another run in a postseason game since blank. Again the Mariners.
Bryce Miller the first pitcher to allow a leadoff homer
(35:41):
and complete six plus innings without allowing another run in
a postseason game since blank. That is the Insta trivia.
The answer, We'll get to it. We'll do it next.

we'll get the Mallor of the third degree and the Mariners.
Bryce Miller became the first pitcher to allow a leadoff
home run and complete six plus innings without allowing another
run in a postseason game. Since blank, that is the question.
What is the answer? And let's see does anyone know
the answer?
Speaker 6 (38:09):
Me?
Speaker 1 (38:10):
Gene Oakland mean Gene from Rob in Vegas? Who else
do we have? Page down ervin Santana from Andy and
Lino Lakes, Comrade blind someone from FEMI. I don't know
who that person is. Ryan is going with Dave Steve
is his answer. Joseph McCarthy from King Rory bo Bolinsky
(38:33):
from Eke and Roseville, Minnesota. Hank Basket from Shane in
Des Moines. The Specialist cheated, bad job by him, Tim Belcher,
Dodger Legend from slug Everybody in Vegas, Dennis Oilcanboyd from
JT the Wingman in Knoxville. Ryan and San Diego going
with Dave Steve. He misspelled it. Nurse Jockey going with
(38:53):
Molly Fingers is his answer. Annie Hall from Kathy in Madison.
What say you, Lorraine? I'm going with ralphie Ben Ralphie
care Ralphie. Unfortunately, no, it's not. Also not Brad Ratty.
Guess by the other ben The correct answer would be
David Price with the Red Sox way back in twenty eighteen,
(39:14):
and it was in the World Series Game five, the
World Series. It's Mallard, how about that?
Speaker 3 (39:20):
To the third degree?
Speaker 7 (39:21):
Hi you Ray?
Speaker 5 (39:23):
This?
Speaker 3 (39:23):
Yeah? Is gets great?
Speaker 1 (39:25):
Where we have here a coup?
Speaker 8 (39:27):
Then it was reported over the weekend that Brian Dayball
is under investigation, a joint investigation between the NFL and
NFL Players Association on whether or not he violated the
least concussion Protocol by appearing into you know, yell at
the team doctor.
Speaker 7 (39:41):
What do you think is gonna come of this investigation?
Speaker 1 (39:43):
Oh, they'll reprimand him and they'll find him and then
that'll be that. And it's it's a real big tell
though that Russell Wilson sucks so much that Brian day
Ball tried to like he was like wreck Itt Ralph
who used to work here. He tried to make his
way in the injury tent to make sure that that
Dart came back, because we had no chance to win
(40:04):
if Dart wasn't on the field.
Speaker 8 (40:05):
Next a League insider also recently said that he believes
Howie Roseman will try to move a J.
Speaker 1 (40:11):
Brown.
Speaker 7 (40:13):
What team do you think is a realistic destination for agent?
Speaker 1 (40:15):
Well, the obviously won't be the Chargers, right. The Chargers
need a number one receiver, they need the top guy
they've got. You know, that's not the type of the
Chargers normally make. But that's the team that pops right
at the very top there, that stands out next.
Speaker 8 (40:29):
Over the weekend, Kendrick Perkins basically pleaded with Lebron James
to retire after this season.
Speaker 7 (40:34):
Do you think he'll do it?
Speaker 1 (40:35):
Yes, Lebron is gonna key, He's gonna retire Because Kendrick
Perkins publicly to try to get clicks and get people
watching his stupid TV stuff, said, Lebron, you should retire? Yeah?
Is Lebron gonna sell more whiskey? That hennessy? That's what
I want to know. How do we do ku passes?
I've won Homeless Mike
Talking Bay's ball. It's our numb berd two, our number two.
The final four underway. The Ben Malers Show continues with
this hour of the podcast, Happy Monday to you, and
we start out in Canada. All the Mariners fell behind early,
(00:20):
but they end up taking Game one of the American
League Championship Series Toronto starred Vladimir Guerrero Junior said the
Jays loss, He said of it, quote, we just didn't hit.
Does this explanation work for you? Also, how do you
process cal Raley and Seattle winning game numb ber one?
(00:41):
We'll discuss that. And in the world of college football,
Packers defensive end Micah Parson says James Franklin quote deserved
better after Penn State's dismissal over the weekend. Is that
based in any reality. We will examine the evidence and
we will decide right now here. It is our number two.
(01:04):
A little Mariner magic. North of the Border. Welcome in
the beginning of another hour of the Ben Mahler Show.
We are in the air everywhere a consortium as we
are Barrakudahs of the night, Coast to coast, border, the
border and beyond on the vast and scorchingly powerful microphones
(01:29):
of FSR am monating live from the read as the
read and react of Sports Talk rated Right here we
read and re react from the world famous Fox Sports
Radio studios, as approved by Bennett the Comedian, Yafim, Robbie
the Mariner fan, No streadenis JJ from Renton, and your
(01:52):
neighbor Fred in all of them. This portion of the

(02:14):
the tire Buying Show be So I lead this hour
from baseball as the final four underway in Toronto, the
curtain going up on Game number one of the American
League Championship Series. There baseball the spotlight not to its
(02:35):
own because they start well. The Sunday night NFL game
is going on, but it's the beauty of Rob Manford
and the geniuses at Major League Baseball. God forbid you
start on a Tuesday when you have the stage to yourself,
but I digress. So the Mariners opening things up in
Canada and a surprise as Bryce Miller starting the game.
(02:56):
A couple of days after the Seattle baseball team played
a fifteen our thriller over the Detroit baseball team and
Bryce Miller six sharp innings and Jorge Polanco getting it
done there yet again. He had the go ahead ribby
single in the sixth inning, the Mariners getting it done
a domination situation after falling behind early, and the Blue
(03:20):
Jays had the brief one nothing lead, but the Mariners
end up winning it three to one as they returned
to the American League Championship Series Seattle for the first
time in twenty four years. Once a generation, the Mariners
get to the League Championship Series. Cal Rolly adding the
tying solo home run, the second home run he's had
here in the postseason led baseball with sixty homewerns. Did
(03:43):
Aaron judge at a home run in the Ales? No,
he did not. Oh he didn't play in the Ale,
but he did rub some suntan lotionan onto the Bahamas,
so he's got that going for him, Aaron Judge. So anyway,
the Blue Jays will be right back at it. Game
two will be the early game, five o'clock eastern, two
o'clock in the West against the Mariners, who will start
(04:05):
Logan Gilbert in that game. He threw thirty four pitches
in the fifteen inning game the other night. But the
better story is in the losing locker room. So let
us discuss the question here. Toronto star Vladimir Guerrero, who
did bupkiss in this game? Vladimir Guerrero said of Toronto's loss,
(04:27):
he said, quote, we just didn't hit close. Quote Does
that explanation work for you? Short and sweet? Four words?
Vladimir Guerrero said, we just didn't hit all right. So
my observations, I got drug store, MythBusters and cartoon size,
and we will combine all of these things together and
(04:49):
we are going to say hello to Krusty the k
clown is what we're going to do, all right? So
number one? All right? Number one? So I'm shaking my head. No,
I do not approve the explanation, while it is factually correct.
From Vladimir Guerrero Junior. The Toronto offense was flatter than
a pancake in Saskatoon, A nice diner there in Saskatoon.
(05:12):
That is accurate. This was supposed to be the Honky
Tonk Jubilee for the Toronto baseball team. You look at
that scene there in Toronto. The game was on Fox
and you look at the building there. The ballpark was
absolutely buzzing. You got that cheating a hole George Springer,
forever tainted as a cheat from the twenty seventeen cheating Astros.
(05:37):
George Springer hits a leadoff moonshot bang. Bang must have
been a home run because it was a bang on
the trash can and the place was louder than a
rush concert. And then they had to play the rest
of the game, and then they had to play the
rest of the game and nothing. Absolutely Crickets Crickets, zip Bow,
(05:58):
the baseball team from Canada, had one hit in twenty
eight at bats. One for twenty eight. Now that works
out to an thirty six batting average, which I'm told
is not good. That was their offense. It was like
a tax ride off one for twenty eight. The rest
of the game. The Jays house man was not was
(06:19):
not Drake. They did not have Drake. They had Limp Biscuit.
Keep part of that limp, because the Toronto Blue Jays
very limp their total buzzkill for the Toronto side of
things on this one. After the Springer home run, it
was an early Christmas carol, even before Halloween, a silent night.
They had that going for them. So the Blue Jays,
you look at this offense, and they were really flexing
(06:41):
against the Yankees, right they for the most part, even
the games they lost, exception maybe one, they had a
really good offense going really good in that ballpark. The
accusations had been made that Toronto was up to some
funny business because they've been so much better at home
offensively than on the road, and so they're using some
kind of special cameras to spy and do they know
(07:03):
something we don't know. Anyway, in this game, the Blue Jays,
they needed to go down to the drug store right
across the street from the ballpark there, go to the
pharmacy at the drug store and pick up the bottle
that there's a prescription for them. It's a little bottle
of blue pills. Because they did not rise to the occasion.
They did not rise to the occasion. Here you only
(07:24):
get one opportunity. I might be wrong with this but
I think I'm right. You only get one opportunity to
make an opening impression in the American League Championship Series.
You get one opportunity here, and how did that go?
Let's see you set the tone they what kind of
tone did they set? Alarm bells? Yeah? Not good? And
(07:45):
so so much for planting the flag. The Mariners were
the team that planted the flag. The Blue Jays, they
tripped across the border is what they did there. And
as for Vladimir Guerrero and his quote saying about the offense,
we just didn't hit. That was his quote, right, we
just didn't which is again no kidding, Sherlock. I understand.
I watched the game understanding you didn't hit. All right,
(08:07):
we all saw that you did not hit. You did
not do much of anything. It was very boring to
watch you attempt to do anything, kind of like Wayne
Gretzky coming out and saying, oh, we just didn't score
enough goals. You think you think now? I prefer the
Mike Tomlin approach to these things. I always go with
Mike Tomlin. Went in doubt, throw Mike Tomlin quote out.
When the Steelers don't play well, tom will come out
(08:28):
with some over the top quote. For example, Tomlin's quote.
I think it was last year when things were not
going well for the Steelers, and he said, we make
no excuses. He said, we seek no comfort. We didn't
play well. Coach well, period, hardstop, boom done. That's it.
That's all. That's all you need right there. That should
be carved in to the Toronto Blue Jays dugout right there,
(08:53):
just a nude. Okay, I get it. Now. The good
news for Toronto and the bad news for Seattle is
there is no such thing as momentum. It just doesn't exist.
There is no momentum. So you don't have to worry
about this some kind of spillover a situation that you
just put the baby to bed and then's Game two
is brand new game and we'll see what you got
now on the winner side of things, winners on the
(09:16):
winter side of things not as good as story. How
do you process the big dumper cal Raley and Seattle
winning Game one with Gusto? All right, so on this one,
this is a myth buster specially, it's one of the
things I love. The media narrative gets slashed apart because
we're not part of the mainstream. I don't get paid
like mainstream media. We do the thing overnight. Here, we're
(09:38):
not mainstream. Mainstream is six am to six pm. Anything
after that is not mainstream. So we're on the fringes
in the shadows. Do Do Do Do Do Do Doo.
But this was a myth Busters October edition. It really
was right because remember all the handwringing and the gas baggery.
(10:00):
I don't if you paid any attention to Maybe you weren't.
You were watching football a weekend. But if you're a
baseball person, the story was, oh my god, the Mariners
are porked. They have no chance. Right they played fifteen innings,
two hundred pitches against the Tigers on Friday. Now they
have to fly across North America and play right away
(10:21):
on Sunday. There's no chance they can win. Of course,
the problem with that is they discounted. They discounted the
fact that they were not traveling by stage coach from
Washington to Ontario. They were not doing that. Here it
turns out that when you travel and you stay at
five star hotels, you have chartered flights, private air travel,
(10:42):
you have police escorts. You're not exactly taking the Oregon Trail.
You don't have to worry about getting dysentery. Nobody died
of dysentery from the Manners traveling party on their way
to Toronto. So the Mariners didn't just survive. They obviously
flourished in this situation. Here they showed up and after
that early kick to the shins by the Toronto baseball team,
(11:05):
the rest of the way it was bigfoot, heavily caffeinated,
holding a Louisville slugger and just going for here. There
was a surgical game on the mound in the American
League Championship Series. Now, I don't know how much of
this is Toronto just being bad. I don't have Bryce
Miller on my really good card. Should I have him
on there? I don't have him on there. I don't
(11:26):
have him. Not a list. I have like a big
board card thing, not a list. Terry Neway, but Bryce Miller.
I look at him. I was like, you know, okay, fine,
average major league starting pitcher, nothing over the top grade.
You good during the regular season, hadn't been all that
great in the playoffs, unless I'm maybe my TV was
broken again vintage though not Jamie Mooy. It was like
(11:47):
Jamie Moyer with more gusto, a few extra ticks on
the gun there for the Mariners. They're slicing up, slicing
and dicing the Toronto Blue Jays. There was six innings
of one run ball and painting the strike zone like
he was Bob Ross with the paint brush there, and
good job by him and the big dumper doing big
(12:09):
dumper things, sitting a home run there, boom, yachtse longball,
ding dong, whatever you want to say. Their home run
for him. So there you go, just like that home
field advantage gone. Although we do know since the Mariners
are like an honorary Canadian team, right because so many
people from Vancouver come down to watch the Mariners, and
(12:29):
there'll be a lot of Canadians that make their way
down across the border there when they get back to Seattle.
But there's a game again in Toronto later on this afternoon,
but no home field advantage. And it was supposed to
be the party, as we said, supposed to be a
party there Ballpark formerly known as the sky Gnome back
in the day. Now it's got a corporate name, but buzzing.
(12:50):
The fans showed up early there. They had the blue.
That's a lot of powder blue jerseys. When they showed
the crowd and ready to scream their lungs out, and
there were just a handful of mayors, not many, not many,
and how did that go?
Speaker 2 (13:04):
Well?
Speaker 1 (13:05):
That did not go well for the home team at all.
And so very savvy performance for the Mariners. They're a
good start, very un Mariner like, I would say, not
very un Mariner like. There it's a team that's like, well,
that's a nice little story out of the Pacific Northwest,
and it's not approaching it that way, not exactly approaching
(13:26):
it that way here after falling behind early, coming back
and monster mashing here and so there you go. They
took the early punch and bounced right back. And that's
where we are now we move ahead in the broadcast.
We'll get back to the baseball. But I did want
to go to college football. We had a very high
profile shakeup in college football while the NFL was being played,
(13:50):
and then later on baseball we had a little wackety
whack as a prominent head coach has been decommissioned pre season,
top five and all of college football fired before Halloween.
Hard to do, It's hard to do. But it happened.
James Franklin gone, Nana, Ana, good bye, I see you later. Hey,
(14:16):
going Franklin out. Now, that led to condemnation from some
powerful alumni, you believe it or not, of Penn State.
You'd think after what is transpired here in the last
couple of years, that this would not be something to
be upset about. But there we saw it. The question
(14:36):
on this one packer's defensive end and a former player
for James Franklin, Micah Parsons says, James Franklin quote deserved
better close quote after Penn State dismissed him. So the
question is, is that based in any kind of reality,
did James Franklin get a raw deal from Penn State?
(15:02):
All right, So with all honor, with all due respect,
Michael Parsons is out of his bloody mind. Okay, he
got the utmost James Franklin respect. Do you understand when
you're at one of these power schools. I think we
all know this, whether you're a fan of Penn State.
I'm not a Penn State fan by any means, but
(15:23):
I know watching college football casually, I don't talk about
it much because it's not as popular as the NFL,
but watching the big time schools, the power, the elite
of the elite, the top of the power conferences and
Notre name which is not in a conference, but Notre
name se Michigan, Georgia, Alabama, Penn State, Ohio State. That
(15:46):
pedigree of school. It's how you do against the top teams.
It's how you do in the made for TV matchups.
That is what separates and twenty five games against top
ten teams, or James Franklin and at Penn State four
and twenty one, four and twenty one against top ten teams.
(16:06):
How about the top five? One in fifteen, one and
fifteen against top five teams, And you can't have that
record and then claim somehow there's some kind of mistreatment.
It's just not true. In fact, I would argue that
James Franklin got the ultimate, the ultimate celebration. This is
(16:30):
one of the great things in his life, James Franklin,
because he was failing, he was drowning as coach at
Penn State, and they rewarded him with one of those
cartoon sized lottery checks. You know those giant oversized checks
when you win the lottery. This was there. I want
one of those Pennsylvania Lottery. They're pretty cool. He left
(16:54):
with forty nine million dollars. Penn State will be paying
him through twenty thirty one. Forty nine million dollars for
them minute not to work. Now you should be I realized,
after taxes and all that, it's probably like twenty two
million or something like that. But still you should not
ever have to work again. You should be set for life.
(17:16):
If he wants to coach, he can coach. But this
is not a sad thing. This is the ultimate to
think that you suck so much that somebody wrote a check,
some booster. Now, the rumors are that Adidas, who's got
a big deal with Penn State, they're the ones. I
don't know if that's true or not. I read that
on the internet. I read a lot of things. I
don't know whether that's accurate or not. But the rumor
is that Penn State so embarrassed and they've got the money.
(17:38):
They're like, they need Penn State to be good because
they want to sell overpriced athletic gear and no one's
going to buy overpriced gear with Penn State's logo on it,
with the Adidas logo if they blow and right now
they blow. They lost a winless UCLA. Now you see
LA came back and kick the snot out of Michigan
State over the weekend. But my gut, but you look
(18:00):
at that and also the Northwestern loss this weekend. So
no pity party and all that. Uh, this was this
was a platinum handshake that James Franklin got. It was
he was given handcuffs, golden handcuffs. He got golden handcuffs.
He didn't just get left on the tarmac, right, He's not.
He didn't show up drunk like Steve Sarkis in at
(18:22):
usc and get a rude departure Lane Kiffin on the tarmac.
None of that stuff, right, he got. If the math
is right on this, James Franklin the second largest go away,
don't come back. Check this side of Jim bow Fisher.
He got the Jimbo. He got the Jimbo. And he
(18:45):
deserves better. How does he deserve better? He'll he'll end
up these guys, these coaches are cockroaches. He'll end up
somewhere else at a medium sized program, and then he'll
have a couple of good years in some power five
school or top power five school, will bring James Strankln back.
But the ones that deserve better were the players at
Penn State. The people that watch Penn State football. To
(19:07):
lose to again UCLA look like they were't gonna win
a game, and they kicked your ass on offense up
and down the field. They scored whenever they wanted to
and lowly Northwestern. I mean, that's embarrassing. I'm and you
have a roster that was a top five roster before
the year, and Mike is playing the loyalty card from
(19:28):
the bottom of it was I get I understand he
likes Michaeh. Parsons. He played for James Franklin. He obviously
has an allegiance to James Franklin. Franklin went out and
recruited him. Micah Parsons makes a lot of money now
he believes he would not apparently have made that much
money if he had not run into James Franklin. I
get it, fine, whatever that being said, Let's not pretend
(19:50):
this is some kind of Shakespearean betrayal by Penn State. No,
it's big boy football. It's semi professional. In fact, the
amount of money being paid to Penn State is professional football.
And you're getting a big boy, check to go away,
and I'll tell you what. Right now, I've been at
this company for like twenty five years. Fox Sports Radio,
been here a long time. If they wrote me a
(20:11):
check today for forty nine million dollars, I would never
say a bad word about them, and I would go
away smiling, and I'd be very happy, and you would
be too. Wherever you work, I don't care how long
you've worked at that company. If they cut one of
those giant checks, you never have to work again. You'd
be like oh man, and you fail to live up
to expectations in a results based industry, that's what happens.
(20:32):
It is the Ban Malo Show. Will take your calls
eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox. I've been warned.
I don't think this is actually gonna happen, but I've
been warned that we're gonna be overwhelmed with Mariner fans

or not. But we will press on here. We'll take
your calls the whole thing. If you would like to
(20:54):
be part again. Eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox

And I got away with it? Okay? So your friend
that's in the phones?
Speaker 1 (24:01):
Hello, Okay, I feel like that's a private conversation. You're
the magic Can I explain? Can I get in my soapbox?
The magical radio? That the only thing the consumer hears
is our conversation. Any other conversations that you have are
off air conversations. Nobody knows what the hell happened. The
(24:23):
magic of radio is this conversation you not a previous conversation.
That doesn't matter. Nobody heard that conversation. That was not
fit for public consumption. This is is fit for public consumption.
Speaker 6 (24:40):
The Chiefs you mentioned earlier that you saw in him
and you thought, wow, that's the Chiefs. That any from
the Paths. Is that right?
Speaker 1 (24:51):
Yes? That was much more of the type of football
you expect from the Chiefs. Yes.
Speaker 6 (24:56):
Yeah, And so you're like, wow, you know, I think
I might put some money on the chief You can
say the same thing about you can say the same
thing about U c l A.
Speaker 7 (25:04):
Wow, that's the whole that's that's a whole different team.
Speaker 2 (25:07):
All of a sudden, are.
Speaker 1 (25:08):
You you want you think those things are similar?
Speaker 6 (25:12):
Well, in a degree, you know, I'll tell I'll tell
you that if you have if you f C and
you see LA played today, I would take you c
l A right now, not UFC.
Speaker 1 (25:23):
Okay, you're a prisoner of the moment here, Hugh. Don't
be a prisoner. That's about job.
Speaker 6 (25:27):
Well I'm saying today, I'm not saying. I'm not saying
at the.
Speaker 2 (25:30):
End of the season.
Speaker 1 (25:32):
Well, you see, I looked the way they looked the
first three or four games of the year like they
were never going to win a game. It looked like
it looked like they'd never played football before.
Speaker 6 (25:41):
And then they dropped the head off of the whole program.
And then all of a sudden, there's a new head
of the program and it's whoa, that's a whole different organization.
Speaker 1 (25:51):
Okay, So what is your point.
Speaker 6 (25:54):
Well, I think it's similar to the Chiefs that.
Speaker 1 (25:57):
Who did they did they fire Andy Reid? Why did
you not take you didn't tell me? Coop they fired
Andy Raid. You didn't tell me that. Why was he
Why was he on the sidelines? Why was Spagnolo on
the sidelines? Why were they all there? I don't understand.
Speaker 3 (26:11):
I don't know.
Speaker 6 (26:11):
Maybe they put something different in the kool aids.
Speaker 1 (26:14):
Yes, they spiked it. They spiked it with steroids, Yes,
filled with steroids. Just kidding you, you understand you. I
know you're trying to mold this call around because you
know I was not talking Ucile football. And you're little,
you're a little horny because you say has won a
couple of games. Yes, you're kind of excited.
Speaker 3 (26:34):
You them? What brought them up?
Speaker 1 (26:37):
Because I brought him up because of James Franklin, because
that was what began the demise of James Franklin. Well, actually,
all those losses the top ten teams is what did
in Jim.
Speaker 6 (26:48):
Frank I'm not making any point for you.
Speaker 1 (26:52):
I am not making anybody, does it, Loraino? Does it
sound like I'm making a point for this guy?
Speaker 2 (26:57):
Absolutely?
Speaker 1 (26:58):
On the five? Come on, did you lose? Exactly? What's
wrong with you? You? And by the way, I know
Rick new Heeisel's kid is at ucl A. New Heel's
on in t you know, TV Land at CBS or whatever,
and people love New Heisel. But can we slow down
a little bit here? I mean this, my god, Megan,
it seemed like New Isel's kids, the second coming of Lombardi. Relax.
Speaker 6 (27:19):
He's he's pretty cute.
Speaker 1 (27:21):
Though, you know, not my type. But you know, whatever
you like, you know, you go, Franklin.
Speaker 6 (27:28):
Who else are they going to get?
Speaker 1 (27:30):
Penn State?
Speaker 6 (27:31):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (27:32):
Well, they got a lot of money. It's a power school.
It's a big state school. What's that?
Speaker 6 (27:39):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (27:39):
Yeah, yeah, good luck? All right? Are you doing anybody
in any of the UCLA propaganda?
Speaker 6 (27:45):
Do you have any questions for me?
Speaker 1 (27:47):
Let me check? Is it is that? How this works?
Am I supposed to ask?
Speaker 2 (27:50):
To call?
Speaker 1 (27:50):
This question be? What's what do you have for lunch?
Speaker 2 (27:56):
What did I have for lunch?
Speaker 6 (27:58):
I had a a Peter Fanily Okay, well, yeah, I
gotta hang up on you on that note.
Speaker 1 (28:03):
Thank go away. I don't want to hear about it.
Peter Sandwich. My god, all right, let's see here. Oh
my my guy in Houston hung up. I was he
was in the on deck circle. He hung up. Bad
job by David Houston. He was gonna be right there,
but he did not stay online. Let's say hello to
the King of Kurds. Hello, King of Kurds.
Speaker 2 (28:25):
Well, say, David Houston.
Speaker 1 (28:28):
Wasn't Yes, he was an ass one one thousand and two,
one thousand hole.
Speaker 2 (28:37):
Oh, I didn't do Sorry, I don't. I don't know
how to talk to the garbage can. But also we
need to do a Dodgers brewer's butt.
Speaker 1 (28:47):
Okay, all right, what would you like to lose? What
do you want to lose?
Speaker 2 (28:52):
I mean, I'm assuming we're gonna lose.
Speaker 1 (28:55):
Yeah, But that's that's the proper way. That's a proper
way to approach this.
Speaker 2 (29:01):
I'm just happy. The Rams won, the Broncos won, the
Packers won. Roberto's Raiders one like Eddie's white in the
San Diego Chargers.
Speaker 1 (29:14):
Everyone won, everyone won. Yes, everyone's everyone's happy.
Speaker 7 (29:18):
Everyone's except the Jets.
Speaker 1 (29:20):
Well, no one's a Jets fan on this show, though. Well,
the Jets, they got closer to the number one pick
in the draft, so they when the Jets lose, win
So and if you, if if you look at your
big board, I know chie's of courage, you study the
NFL draft. The Jets at oh and six would have
(29:40):
the number one pick. Cleveland would have the number two pick.
Baltimore would be at number three.
Speaker 2 (29:45):
That obviously the Browns they get the number two pick.
Speaker 1 (29:50):
Well, they would get the number two pick. It's based
on strength of schedule. The way the formula works the
opponents using all seventeen opponents current record, the Browns would
be second, followed by Baltimore, Miami, New Orleans, Tennessee.
Speaker 2 (30:06):
So Brown's always dropping a duce on the league. Nonetheless,
Brewers Dodgers, We're probably gonna lose. But I feel like
I'm the name of sandwich after you.
Speaker 1 (30:15):
Oh okay, all right, well listen now you now you've
got my Now you got my attention. Now you got
my damn attention. Okay, We're in this now. I what
what what can I get? I can give you, like
multiple golden tickets. I can give you that. What else
can I give this guy? I don't know.
Speaker 2 (30:29):
I already got to do.
Speaker 1 (30:31):
You don't want a golden ticket? All right? I mean
I love what else would you? What would you like?
What can I provide you? What can I do for you?
Speaker 2 (30:39):
I don't know? You set the boundaries. I would love
to be catering to the mount of militia and letting
it out. But I just feel like it's very odd
that the Dodgers And.
Speaker 1 (30:51):
Now can I can I design the sandwich? Am I
allowed to design the sandwich? Can I come up with
the ingredients of Okay?
Speaker 2 (30:58):
I posted on instagrams Take on or not coops take
my take on the dunnerl ledges based on his bias.
Speaker 1 (31:06):
Yeah, all right, Mine will have a lot of cheese
and a lot of meat my sandwich, and it'll it'll
be the number It'll be the number one. This is
like a real restaurant here. This is not some fraud operation, right,
This is a legitimate operation.
Speaker 2 (31:20):
Oh, there's multiple legit operations. And I will even make
a Michelin staresque dish.
Speaker 1 (31:27):
Oh look at that. Now we're talking. Now, this is
gonna be big for the Wisconsin meat and greet that
we're gonna do here. This is gonna be mass I
told you, I told you, I know I'm in man. Listen,
be great. I can see I, me, my brother hang out,
you hang out with all the fans of the show.
Would be wonderful. Now, I think it needs to be
a Michelin style chicken strip meal. No, no, no, no, no,
(31:47):
I like that like, what about like a deconstructed chicken
strip or the breadings on the side. That's the stupidest
thing you've ever said, your mike off. In fact, do
fifteen push ups right now, do some burpies right now.
Come on, she's actually doing something.
Speaker 7 (32:09):
Wind springs down the hall?
Speaker 1 (32:11):
Yeah, go down?
Speaker 7 (32:13):
What's what? What was Russell Wilson doing on the plane?
Speaker 1 (32:19):
What's that? King occurs? What's that? Buddy?
Speaker 2 (32:22):
I would love to just do a little challenge with
not because I haven't called in the wife and.
Speaker 1 (32:29):
Listen if you want to the Brewer, if the Brewer,
if the Brewers win, we'll we'll, we'll, we'll do something.
How about that.
Speaker 2 (32:37):
Wine? Can we do a meet and greet over weekend
of your choice? If the Dodgers, Yeah, I mean, we'll
do it.
Speaker 1 (32:49):
Do you want me to come in out in the
winter though, I don't know. Don't you want to come on?
The weather's nice? Three bars Friday, Saturday, Sunday, three bars
Friday Saturday, so the whole So I have to take
off some show son night and the Monday, so i'd
have to take that out.
Speaker 2 (33:02):
We'll do a podcast from him and everything.
Speaker 1 (33:05):
You okay, all right, I'll we'll make it happen. I
thank you. I gotta go here, but there there you go.
So I feel like we're either way, I'm gonna win.
I feel like this is not like a loss for me,
and there's a win wind flues like a sandwich named
after me. We get a Mallard meet and greet in Wisconsin.
I think that's a win win. You put on your sandwich,
bro I haven't thought about it, you know, bro Ed,
(33:27):
I gotta think about it. This is a very serious thing.
I take this stuff seriously. Does your sandwich? I have
been gifted uh in the great honors and other people
win Marconi Awards, Coward gets paid seventeen million dollars a year, whatever.
But my reward is food named after you. Yeah, that's
my my reward. It is the Ben Mahler Show. As
(33:48):
we navigate the overnight hours and amazing. This is like
a baseball injury. So Anthony Richardson the Colts had be
taken to the hospital. He fractured the orbital bone. That
sounds very painful. No pregame warm ups. He was warming
up with one of those elastic bands and snap and
(34:08):
he snap right in the old eye. There they claim
it was it malfunctioned. I think you think obviously, oh
my goshding me. This is why you should not work
out with those bands because every once in a while they.
Speaker 7 (34:26):
Yeah the resistance bans, yeah, bush them too hard?
Speaker 1 (34:29):
Yeah, right in your eye. Oh but to do that
to your orbital bone, how much.
Speaker 7 (34:34):
That must I know?
Speaker 6 (34:34):
Right?
Speaker 1 (34:35):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (34:36):
Yeah yeah.
Speaker 1 (34:36):
So he had to go to the hospital and be
out for for a while. So the Colts had a
different backup quarterback as they came back to beat the
Cardinals in their game, and the speechless that would be
none other than Jerry Jones. I'm talking more about the Cowboys. Later,
Cowboys lost to lowly Carolina and Jerry Jones skipping the
postgame media session so embarrassed. Normally, Jerry didn't care when
(35:00):
the Cowboys lose because just more people talk about the Cowboys,
but he was so humiliated by that loss that he
took the cowardly root Jerry Jones and did not talk
to the media. Which makes you wonder whether or not
someone's losing their job in Dallas where there's gonna have
a human sacrifice like the Aztecs for one of the
assistant coaches there. It is the Ben Mahler Show, We've
(35:21):
got Mallard of the third degree. Here is the Insta trivia.
Seattle's Bryce Miller became the first pitcher to allow a
leadoff homer and complete six or more innings without allowing
another run in a postseason game since blank. Again the Mariners.

Speaker 8 (39:27):
Then it was reported over the weekend that Brian Dayball
is under investigation, a joint investigation between the NFL and
NFL Players Association on whether or not he violated the
least concussion Protocol by appearing into you know, yell at
the team doctor.
Speaker 7 (39:41):
What do you think is gonna come of this investigation?
Speaker 1 (39:43):
Oh, they'll reprimand him and they'll find him and then
that'll be that. And it's it's a real big tell
though that Russell Wilson sucks so much that Brian day
