Speaker 1 (00:00):
Dinged, Bye bye, it's our number two. Brian Kelly is out.
Big news over the weekend while the NFL was going on,
Brian Kelly whacked as coach in Baton Rouge. Was Brian
Kelly's firing justified or premature at LSU after a blowout
loss to A and M Over the weekend? Also, will
(00:21):
former LSU coach Brian Kelly coach again? We'll discuss that.
Who are some of the candidates that the Bengal Tigers
are going to try to get to replace him as coach?
And what's the word outside of that? In the NFL,
what's the word to describe Falcons backup quarterback Kirk Cousins
and his performance or lack thereof against the Miami Dolphins.
(00:42):
We'll get to that as well, all of it right now.
Settle in as it's the old boys club unless it's not.
We bounce around the pinball machine in our number two,
a Southern Fried firing. Say what well, in the beginning
(01:02):
of another hour of the Ben Malor Show, we are
in the air. Everywhares we huddle up and we have
the late night munchies factor. Coast to coast, border the
border and beyond on the vast and gigantically powerful microphones

Mouthwash Mike in Vegas. We did not see Mouthwash Mike.
I did drive around a little bit. I was in
(01:44):
town last week. I did not see Mouthwashmike. I hope
he's all right. Last time he called, he was not
doing that well, so hopefully he's okay. This portion of

So I lead this. We're gonna change it up. We'll
get back to the NFL in a moment. I wanted
to start with the story in the by you and
I am fascinated. I fully admit you might not care
about this. I am fascinated by these buyouts in college football.
(03:13):
I have been whacked from a number of radio jobs.
I've lost a TV show a couple of times. I've
lost a lot of jobs. I've never been given the
kind of golden parachute that they hand out in college football.
It's fascinating. The people of academia are so stupid. They
hire these football coaches, they give them these massive contracts,
and then they whack them after a few years. It
(03:33):
has happened yet again, big shake up on Sunday while
we were watching the NFL in the shores are right
on the shores of the Mississippi, not far away from that.
If he didn't see, did not hear, maybe not. I
know Tiger Man very happy, he's very happy about this.
But we've learned now that LSU has said bye bye
(03:53):
to Brian Kelly. Now he's in his fourth season, signed
a ten year contract, about one hundred million about one
hundred million dollar contract, four years in turnout the last
the parties over. Now that move comes on the heels
of rhythmic chanting goofing on Brian Kelly. Over the weekend,
(04:16):
you see Texas A and m quyetle the number three,
number three team in college football Texas Center. They won
against LSU forty nine to twenty five. That is a
second consecutive loss, we are told for Louisiana State, third
loss in four games. So LSU finds themselves at five
(04:39):
and three. They're two and three in the South Eastern Conference.
That is a good jumping off point. So let us
discuss people questioning the timing on this. They should have
let it breathe a little bit longer, should have waited.
So the question was Brian Kelly's firing as coach at
LSU justified or was it premature? All Right? So on
(05:02):
this one, I've got Pitt Boss, Rosetta Stone and best
Buy and we will combine all of these things together
and we are going to make some delicious yogurt, which
I believe would have put more of a fight up
a little cup of yogurt than the LSU football team
did for Brian Kelly in the game over the weekend.
(05:23):
So number one is that number one. So this one
is absolutely in the basket that is called justified. It's justified,
is what it is here Brian Kelly. You knew the
moment he got to Battl Rouge that Brian Kelly was
was the clinical term is carpet bagger. That is what
(05:45):
Brian Kelly was when he walked into Baton Rouge. If
you don't know, look it up. He was a carpetbagger.
And the minute he stepped off the plane and went
to that little shin dig there in Baton Rouge with
the family trying to say like he was in the South,
there that phony drawl, I can't even do justice. When
Brian Kelly was trying to pronounce and speak in an accent.
(06:07):
There when he took over as the LS coach, he went,
he flew from South Bend down to Batown Rouge and
somewhere over maybe Arkansas. He picked up this Southern drawl,
which was really bad. This fake accent, this fake Southern
charm and fake connection, trying to connect the people who
are LSU fans. And now he has a fake job
(06:27):
that pays a lot of real money. So Brian Kelly
has a fake job because he's not going to be
doing the job anymore. However, he's got a lot of
real money. So this was not about just the loss
to Texas A and M. That was embarrassing. That was a
emasculating situation. This has been a slow burn, a slow burn.
It's like embers on fire growing into a wildfire. LSU
(06:50):
got passed at home. They gave up I think it
was thirty five straight points at one point in the
second half of that game to Texas A and M. So
that's embarrassing. But even that does not get to the
point where LSU is now going to have to cut
a giant, oversized cartoon check to the old Golden Domer
coach Brian Kelly the boosters reaching into their back pocket,
(07:14):
grabbing their wallet out and starting to say, okay, well
do I give a credit card? Is this direct deposit?
Can I pay in crypto?
Speaker 2 (07:22):
Like?
Speaker 1 (07:22):
What do we have to do? Let's let's have a GoFundMe.
How are we going to handle this year? Imagine being
so incompetent, so underwhelming at your job that the employer
you work for goes out and raises funds to pay
you almost fifty four million dollars to go away. That's
(07:46):
where we are and if you look at the story,
that's where we are in the Brian Kelly story. That
is not firing is all. Brian Kelly was fired as
coach at LSU. No no, no, listen. That is a
luxury cruise for the rest of your life to the
French riviera and as many my ties as you possibly
want to have. You can afford everything. This guy basically worked.
(08:09):
Brian Kelly. The moment he got to LSU, he was
like going down to floor and decor and the golden
parachute which was wrapped in of all things, all things,
a carpetbag right there. He can land anywhere he wants,
So maybe not the French Riviera. Maybe he wants to
(08:29):
go to Hawaii can Coon I hear is nice and
can go to any of those locations. LSU is not
paying that kind of money. What they did is they
found a sugar daddy, is what they did to come
up with the money. That's what we understand. How they
haven't even worked out the final details on the actual payout.
(08:49):
They fired him and they said, well we'll figure it out.
It's rather simple. Unless Brian Kelly is willing to take less.
They got to pay him every single dollar, and as
the old Yukon coach said back in the day, not
a I'm back, not a dime, you know, I want
every dollar, every penny, every nickel, everything. So LSU found somebody,
some old oil baron or some tech mogul to pay
(09:10):
the money, the bulk of it. And he was never
the guy. Brian Kelly was never the guy, never was.
And we're talking about the opening news commerce right from
Jump Street. It was a disaster when he took over
for the LSU Bengal Tigers. He's like a Midwestern politician
coming down from South Bend. If you remember it was
a couple of years ago. He's got the purple blazer
(09:33):
kind of a purple outfit. I think he had a
sweater actually, but he had the purple outfit as I remember,
And he was acting like he was the pit boss
at a Louisiana barbecue joint, even though he'd never eaten barbecue.
He's like, well, it doesn't really make sense, come on,
just never fit in now. Fortunately, nobody died falling off
(09:55):
a tower while he was coaching LSU, like happened at
Notre Dame. So that's good. So baby steps there to
buy you gave Brian Kelly a bronx cheer as they
kicked him out on a pontoon boat down the Mighty
Mississippi River and out to the golf right there. Good
knock yourself out now, page two. So, as the story,
(10:17):
the coaching carousel we'll call it, starts spinning around in
college football, we've seeing high profile removals at places like
Penn State, Oklahoma State. Now LSU's on that short list,
and there's some other places as well that have made
changes that are not UCLA not a high profile job.
So we have a shortage. Now there's a supply chain shortage,
(10:40):
which is a slight issue if you're going to fire
your coach because there are not that many coaches available
that you would hire and excite your fan base. They
just aren't. So the question who is LSU targeting to
replace Brian Kelly? Who are they looking at? Give me
some names? Looked around. As you know, we don't talk
(11:01):
much college football in the show. We mostly talk about
in the NFL. But if you look at this, this
is such a big money deal to pay somebody fifty
million dollars to not coach your team, you must have
somebody really exciting lined up in the on deck circle.
You must have a coach there that everyone's gonna be
happy about. Oh my god, it is so exciting, unless
you don't. So the coaching carousel at LSU is spinning
(11:25):
round and round and round, like going to the waffle
house and looking at the ceiling fan at three in
the morning, Round and round and round and round and
round and round and then so the booster is down
in baffoal Rouge. As we understand it, they want a name,
They want some sizzle. If you're going to cut a
check for fifty million dollars on one side, you better
(11:46):
get something and get you a little tingly. On the
other side, gotta get something little tingly on the other side.
So what is that. Well, if you look around, the
hottest name, the hottest name, the hottest fish, I will
do it like a Southern fish fry. The hottest fish
in the frying pan is not a catfish. No, no, no, no,
it's Lane Kiffin. Lane Kiffin the Old Miss coach. So
(12:12):
Florida they also whacked their coach and Lane Kiffin has
been tied to that job. Now you've got LSU. That
job's open up. The LSU jobs better than the Florida's job.
Rather than going to the to the swamp in Gainesville,
you can go coach in Baton Rouge and do your
thing and all that stuff. So if it's not Lane Kiffen,
and to my knowledge, I might be wrong on this.
(12:32):
Lane can only coach one team at a time. So
either he stays at Old Miss, he runs off to
Florida to Gainesville, or he goes to Louisiana State. But
you only have one of those jobs. So let's assume
he does not will take the position that Lane Kiffn
does not end up taking the gig for LSU. So
that's when the circus just gets cranked. All the way
(12:56):
up because there's nobody else, right, there's nobody else who's bud.
They're obvious there. That brings any kind of muscle, any
kind of juice is just not much there. And you
look around and you've got the reject pile. And who's
on the reject pile? Well, James Franklin. How would that
go over? Well, he was at Vanderbilt. Will hire him.
(13:16):
He knows the South. Okay, that'll go over very well.
The failed Penn State coach has got a terrible record
in big games. We'll hire him. How about Jimbo Fisher.
You can't get anymore baton rouge than jim Bow Fisher.
Although why would Jimbo Fisher want that job when he's
still getting paid aristocrat money, not the coach Texas A
and M. So that doesn't make any sense. He's getting
(13:37):
those giant checks the lottery from A and M. So
don't go there. And Jimbo would be like reheated gumbo
is what he would be. Technically it's edible, Okay, it's edible. However,
you're not gonna really enjoy it, and you'll regret it later,
if you know what I'm saying. All Right, now will
(13:59):
former LSU coach. Now I say former because he just
got whacked. Brian Kelly coach again? What about that? Is
Brian Kelly going to coach again? So he will coach
again if he wants. That's the caveat. And it's great
to be in a position in life. Well, you don't
need a job. You can get a job, but you
(14:21):
don't need a job. That's Brian Kelly right. The days
of him, I will say this, the days of Brian
Kelly getting a big boy job ov er. He's not
going to get one of those bougie bougie bougie type gigs.
That's over and he doesn't need it. He does not
need it. Brian Kelly just got the golden handshake. Congratulations,
(14:44):
you've got the retirement package. Your retirement will be paid
for from Louisiana State University. He's not getting another big
time upper conference blue blood job. That is not happening,
not gonna happen. What about Penn State? Okay, yeah, good
luck on that. Maybe Ucla because he's already getting paid
(15:07):
by Louisiana States. So maybe UCLA and in Oklahoma State
somewhere like that. If he wants to work on his accents,
he can do that as well and just go somewhere
some mid tier job if you want to coach again
and there's low expectations and you can golf a lot,
and the weather's got to be good for golfing. So
that's important in all that. And Brian Kelly, whatever headset
(15:30):
he wears next, I know the logo is either going
to be a FS one logo or an ESPN logo.
We will see Brian Kelly on television breaking down third
down conversions like he's the genius of geniuses there in
between rounds of golf and Palm Beach. That's essentially what
he'll be doing here and cashing checks, not calling plays,
(15:50):
and what a great life that is going to be.
He is the Rosetta Stone of phonies, Phony, funny phony, Yeah,
he is. He mix it, get a little bit of Boston,
little sprinkle of Dixie. I think this should be a
great TV show. By the way, I'm recommending. I'm an
ideas guy, So why not have Brian Kelly, whether it's
(16:12):
f S one or ESPN wherever he ends up one
of these TV gigs, these no show TV jobs where
you show up in SPUW cliches, and everyone thinks you're
the smartest person in the room because people are dumb.
So Brian Kelly shows up there and he gets accents
with Brian Kelly, like we say, you do a little
Boston accent. He can do a little Dixie because he
practiced that down there in Louisiana. He can get that
(16:34):
Fargo flair, that Minnesota Fargo accent and get that going
a little bit there. Boom done, and his future though
much less Death Valley, much less Death Valley than it
is Easy Street. It's like Sesame Street for sunny days
are here again for Brian Kelly there who has been
fired as the coach at SU. Now meanwhile, back to
(16:55):
the NFL, we go back to the NFL, we go
and the news out from Atlanta. We mentioned this game
last hour as to a tongue of Iloa man. He
was great, had a bad eye, woke up, went out
there and sliced up the falcons. He carved him like
a turkey. And it's illegal to do that to a falcon,
but he did it. It's a protected bird, that type
(17:17):
of falcon, but he did it anyway. So Kirk Cousins
went out there replaced and injured Michael Pennex Junior. On
the other side, the backup Kirk Cousins hadn't seen him
play any meaningful football sometime and we still haven't seen
him play any meaningful football. And sometimes Cousins was at
the controls, he had his hand on the throttle and
how did that go? Atlanta totaled eleven first downs in
(17:42):
a sixty minute game. They had two hundred and thirteen
yards of offense in that game, and now under five
hundred men. When they beat Buffalo, all the Falcons have arrived.
Everyone was a horny for the Falcons. How's that working
out for you? Now under five hundred. They lose by
twenty four points to the Dolphins. Dan Marino and the
(18:04):
Miami Dolphins went into Atlanta and dominated a domination situation there.
So the question what is the word we like words
on the Overnight Show? What is the word to describe
Kirk cousins performance or lack thereof? As Miami took them
and took them behind the woodshed, they'd kicked their ass
(18:26):
up and down the field. So on this one, the
word I will use is alarming with a capital A.
Alarming with the capital A. That is the word I
will use to describe this. And here's why. Cousins was
out there looking like a guy that had won a raffle.
So hey, everything goes in the hopper, all the names
go on the hopper, and they pulled his name out
(18:48):
and it's like, okay, Cousins, you get to play quarterback
for the Atlanta Falcons. Congratulations, your name came up in
the hopper. We pulled it out of the raffle. And
howd that work out for you? Everything was bad. The
throws were terrible. The reads it looked like he didn't
know how to read. Bad job by him. He needs
the reading rainbow on how to read defenses. The body
(19:10):
language was not good. There was one clip that went
all over the plays that showed Cousins who was audibling
at the line and he is called the wrong player.
The players didn't know what he called and it was
a big to do it, a big mess and all
that stuff. Anyway, RhE Morris, who was in over his
head as coach of the Falcons. How long before he's whacked?
Here is Rahee Morris pointing out his opinion of Kirk
(19:31):
cousins performance. Take a list, you know tough.
Speaker 3 (19:33):
To discuss anybody's play when you go out and play
that way.
Speaker 1 (19:36):
It was why, why why he sucked something that we
got to fix all together, and we got to go
and get those things done this week. It's not a we,
it's a heat and he sucks. We're gonna watch the tape.
He didn't say watch the tape. He might as well
said watch the tape. So it was a masculating That's
another word you can use to describe this year. My
got everything went kurkfluey. It went kurkfluey for Kirk Cousins.
(20:00):
Everything from soup to nuts was a hot mess there
and breaking the huddle in the third quarter, it was
like a walk of shame. Walk of shame. The loan touchdown,
see the final score was thirty four to ten. The
loan touchdown came in an empty building. There were a
few dozen fans there wearing dolphin gear, and with just
(20:24):
a little time left on the clock, there was a
garbage time touchdown there, garbage time points in the morgue.
The stadium was like a morgue at that point there,
and you can't even spin it. Rahee Morris chose to
talk about we lose as a team. We win as
a team. All that crap, that standard standard coaching one
O one, Right, you deflect, you deflect from the Komodo
(20:46):
drag in the room. How about this, though? The trade
deadline is coming up. It's a week from tomorrow. Week
from tomorrow, Tuesday of next week is the NFL's trade deadline.
So we asked the question, right, whatever price tag the
Falcons thought thought they were getting at the upcoming trade deadline?
(21:08):
Where is that right now? All right? So the Falcons,
it has been chatter they're gonna try to trade Kirk
Cousins here and this was a showcase game for him
to get out there and play. So whatever price they
put on Cousins, all right, whatever it is, you slash
it with a machete. It's like chopping away the brush.
(21:29):
Just chop it away. Imagine if you will. You're at
best Buy now you could buy a brand new refrigerator
and spend thousands and thousands of dollars on it. Or
you can go to the back there and they have
the scratched and dented section of refrigerators and just some
cosmetic damage and you can get that. You'll save save
(21:51):
some money. So do you want it at full prices.
Cousins at this point is like a dented refrigerator. He is.
And the wild thing here's another guy. They just have
so much money in sports, our money. People that buy
tickets and watch games. They take the money and they
just fivolously spend the money. They're as bad as politicians.
Brian Kelly getting the money he got from LSU, Kirk
(22:14):
Cousins getting one hundred million dollars guaranteed from the Atlanta Falcons.
And the crazy thing is Michael Pennix Junior, the regular
quarterback for Atlanta. He isn't all that great. It's not
like he's good. However, side by side with what we
saw from Kirk Cousins, Pennix is a beast, the Beast
(22:36):

Oh brother, okay, I see what did death? Okay, we
had a gardener and uh, because you know, I'm too
busy on big radio start doing overnights to do the gardening.
So we had a gardener and then the lawn like
died in the front. So so then some other gardener
came by and said, I can fix that right away, right,
(25:26):
so we hired that guy. Lawn is still dead, by
the way, do you know what I wonder The guy's like,
oh yeah, I can fix that. No, I know exactly
what's wrong with your lawn? Okay? Sure.
Speaker 4 (25:34):
So that's when they all know each other and he's like,
I'm gonna kill the lawn, so you can come back
and fix the lawn. Okay, double the business.
Speaker 1 (25:41):
Also another racket tree cutting you ever had? You ever
have a big tree? Oh my, I want to scam.
That is a couple of thousand dollars to cut a tree.
I have multiple comments here.
Speaker 5 (25:51):
So first of all, I just had to get multiple
trees removed from my backyard.
Speaker 1 (25:54):
Oh you just getting go down to home people, rent
a chainsaw, coop and go go ramball.
Speaker 5 (25:59):
It was it was a gigantic One of them was
a gigantic tree.
Speaker 1 (26:03):
Why did you have to have it taken out?
Speaker 5 (26:05):
Because the roots has started to knock over the block
wall between me and my neighbor.
Speaker 1 (26:10):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (26:11):
So that was like almost three grand, Actually it was
more than three grand.
Speaker 1 (26:16):
Yeah, oh my gosh, it's like three to four grand.
Speaker 5 (26:19):
And then wild. So I'm also having gardener problems right
now too. So I have a gardener and this guy
just comes by and does, like, you know, just the
mow and blow.
Speaker 1 (26:28):
It's the quick, easy stuff.
Speaker 4 (26:30):
Yeah oh yeah.
Speaker 1 (26:31):
But unfortunately for unfortunately for coop. Not that coud, but
yes it anyway.
Speaker 5 (26:43):
He would do the front and the backyard sc certain
amount per month. But now I got rid of all
of the trees in my backyard. There's no grass back there,
so there's nothing to do. Sam, Right, Well, I just
I can't really he's there when I'm sleeping to fire him,
and then he doesn't reply to my text message because
he doesn't speak any English.
Speaker 1 (27:04):
So I you gotta change gardens.
Speaker 5 (27:09):
Just you're right, you're right, because I'm gonna be hey,
you're not You're not needed for the backyard anymore.
Speaker 1 (27:14):
Yeah. But by the way, with so many gardener says,
oh yeah, I know exactly what's wrong with your law,
and I can get you know, they're lying, they're lying, okay, liars.
So now I gotta find another gardener. So now I'm
gonna be on my third gardener, and then that's gonna
annoy the other. Like I think there's a whole garfia,
like a gardener mafia, Like all these guys know each
other and they're gonna get upset that I went to

I think you could figure it out though. No, no,
it was it was a Clippers. I'm right.
Speaker 2 (28:23):
Yeah, I'll tell you who it is.
Speaker 3 (28:25):
It's run t mc wrong, get it.
Speaker 1 (28:31):
That's all you came up. But you've been on a
whole for a while. That's what you came with. Well,
I'll tell you this.
Speaker 2 (28:38):
Yeah, I did date a girl from Malay College and
she was a beautiful girl.
Speaker 1 (28:43):
Congratulations, Does Melissa know about this?
Speaker 4 (28:46):
Are you sure she was a girl?
Speaker 2 (28:49):
Yeah, well her name was Tracy. But yeah, that's why that.
Speaker 1 (28:55):
Tracy is one of those names that could you know,
we could go either way, right, the name Tracy, that
is like a multi dimensional name. No, I don't care
what I'm just saying that name. I'm not saying that
anything other than them, but that name could go either way.
Speaker 4 (29:10):
I used to have a male manager whose name was Tracy.
Speaker 1 (29:13):
That's right. There's some names that could go any like Pat.
Pat's another name. Aaron's another name. Aaron could go way anyway. Yes,
Bobby G is mad at me. Why would Bobby G
be mad at you?
Speaker 2 (29:25):
What did you do well?
Speaker 1 (29:27):
The Jets one and the Giants laws. Did you see
that Jet game? Yes, I was on the wrong side
of that game. I'd like to thank the Bengals for
stop playing, to stop playing in the fourth court. Very
impressive by Cincinnati. Total frauds. If I owned the Bengals,
I would fire the entire coaching staff. Holy crap, you
(29:47):
lost to the Jet. You blew a two touchdown lead
to the Jets, and you lost on a gimmick play
a touch Oh my god, a touchdown passed by the
running back. I was in the Giant I was watching
the Giant game.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
Frank Keith comes in the room and he's like the
Jets one.
Speaker 3 (30:03):
I'm like, yeah, sure, yeah right, And.
Speaker 1 (30:05):
I turned on the television ship the jerk game and
they won. Unbelievable. Well anyway, it is unbelievable. It's embarrassing
for the Cincinnati Banks. And I flipped off that game.
They were up down a bit. We're not talking about Dallas,
stay focused, but the Jets they were down by two touchdowns,
like Cincinnati at home. You know, they did a sizable lead.
(30:30):
I turned the game off. It was in fact, it
was thirty eight twenty four in the fourth corner, in
the fourth court. You're up by two touchdowns on the
fourth corner, and you lost the game to the Jets.
Fire we won this time. Lorraine isn't satisfied no more.
Speaker 4 (30:47):
Okay, I'm glad you got jokes.
Speaker 1 (30:49):
Thank you. He dog's got a lot. You're not even
a dad, are you eat dog? But you have dad jobs?
I probably, I probably am, But well you would have
to have had relations with women to be all right.
Thank you? Wow, all right, thank you. Let's go to
Let's go to Dave. Who's in Maine. What's going on?
Speaker 2 (31:06):
Dave?
Speaker 3 (31:06):
Welcome day, Good morning, guys.
Speaker 1 (31:08):
Hello Dave. How can we help you, Bill.
Speaker 3 (31:11):
Bill, Ben, Lorena Coop, everybody, especially Steve, you know, Steve
the Sager, he's the man.
Speaker 1 (31:18):
He's working. He's working hard over there, Steve Man.
Speaker 3 (31:21):
Hey, Lorena, thanks for the bumpers.
Speaker 2 (31:22):
They're always killing.
Speaker 3 (31:24):
Not quickly, quickly quickly.
Speaker 1 (31:26):
Quig light Weigly.
Speaker 3 (31:28):
Blair from Maine absolutely cannot be the only from Maine
representative of the Malimo period.
Speaker 1 (31:36):
Okay, all right, we used to We used to have
a lot of people from Maine the show.
Speaker 3 (31:39):
I don't know what happened, but he shaved his eyebrowts dude,
he lost his respect.
Speaker 1 (31:43):
Well, but he did that. But he did it for Cloud, Dave.
He did it for Cloud on TikTok. Come on, man,
he did it for Cloud.
Speaker 3 (31:50):
Backfired, Yeah, totally backfired on him anyway. Drake may look,
he's not you know, he's fun to watch. He's not
the second Coming. I'm not going to christen him yet,
but look for that kid's already breaking record killer.
Speaker 1 (32:01):
Well he's doing what you're supposed to do, beating up
tomato cans. It would be it would be quite troubling
if he was playing poorly against the schedule. My god,
have the Patriots been given a gift from the They're
gonna win twelve games or something like that, and you're
gonna be like, are they really that good?
Speaker 3 (32:18):
Because because yeah, I was listening to someone last night.
They were talking about the stat where I know, you know,
basically it's called what is it? How did I don't
know the stat?
Speaker 1 (32:27):
Are you talking about the opponents? Yeah? Strength of Yeah,
strength of schedule? That's right. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (32:32):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (32:32):
Anyway, so I know they've got some tomato cans and
that's good, and uh, maybe I think they'll get in,
but I don't know.
Speaker 1 (32:39):
You know, the Patriots opponent's strength of schedule is three
fifty four three three fifty four. It's not I don't
think any of them.
Speaker 3 (32:52):
Other teams are playing five seven hundreds, you know, I know, I.
Speaker 1 (32:55):
Know, no, I no, I'm looking. I don't see anyone
else below four hundred in the entire NFL, and they're
seriously I'm looking. I have this schedule in front of me.
Speaker 3 (33:06):
Oh wow, yeah, yeah, so that's a gift and we'll see,
you know, great.
Speaker 1 (33:12):
I don't even know who's saying. And they're all kind
of similar, except the Patriots are like, by themselves, you
made a ven diagram the Patriots, the Patriots of the outlier.
They're off to the side like everyone else is kind
of bunched up in the middle, and then the Patriots
are It's wild. H all right, listen to Dave. I'm
glad you called. We do need oh lasting last sec
(33:32):
last se Joe, Joe fla jump ball to jump all Joe.
Speaker 3 (33:36):
I want to know if it feels as heavenly as
it did last week sitting at the Borrolan after losing
to the freaking Jets. Didn't that?
Speaker 1 (33:43):
Yeah, okay, that's right. I are a little shot there. Hey, listen,
I defend I think it is powerful. And I'm married.
I don't have to really worry about that. When I
was singing, I was singing for a long time. I
didn't get married till my mid thirty, so I was
I was out by myself a lot. I didn't mind it,
you know, it's fine whatever, the power of being alone.
How about the Bengals defense given up five hundred yards
(34:03):
of offense to the Jets five hundred and Joe Flacco.
The numbers were not not terrible, not terrible, but not
not great, not great, and he played terribly in the
fourth quarter. Oh, that's the problem. It just sucked. Didn't
close the game out. It's a bad job by him.
(34:24):
It is the Ben Mahler Show. We'll press on. We'll
take some more of these calls coming up here. Actually
we have Mallardly third degree, so we're gonna get to
that straight ahead Mallardly third degree and we'll push back
the inside or outside time now though for the inch
dock trivia, and it is a doozy a hum dinger
in that aforementioned Bengal Jets game that our buddy for
Maine was talking about there at the end with Joe Flacco,
(34:46):
the Jets running back and Breshall is his name, Breese Hall.
He became the fourth non quarterback since nineteen point fifty
with a game winning touchdown pass in the final two
minutes of the fourth quarter or overtime, the first person
to do it since Blank. Again, Jets running back Breasee
(35:06):
Hall became the fourth non quarterback since nineteen fifty with
a game winning touchdown pass in the final two minutes
of the fourth quarter or overtime, and the first to
do it since Blank. That is the insta trivia. The
answer and Mallard of the third degree. We'll get to it,
and we will do it next.

up and away back to it, right back to it
(37:04):
we go. Time now though for the payoff on the
install trivia, and then we will get back to have
mallor to the third degree. But we'll start with this.
So Jets running back Brice Hall became the fourth non
quarterback since nineteen fifty seventy five years of football with
the game winning touchdown pass and the final two minutes
how embarrassing for the Bungals in the fourth quarter overtime.
(37:29):
First time that has happened since Blank. Again, Brice Hall
fourth non quarterback since nineteen fifty with a game winning
touchdown pass in the final two minutes of the fourth
quarter or overtime, and the first since blank. Let's see,
does anyone know the answer, we go to the great
Unwashed here the American Nightmare Cody Rose from Rob the Ambassador.
(37:52):
Well he's not the Ambassador. He's just robbed the poker
player in Vegas. I got my robs mixed up. Who
else do we have? Alf? The Alien Opiner says, your
froze was an iPhone that you left in the fridge.
Thank you, Alf, Yes, I've done that. I couldn't find
my phone and then I realized that I had put
it somehow in the refrigerator on ice. Who else you have?
Page down? Mister irrigation. I don't know what that is?
(38:13):
Darth Vader guest by Femi in Minnesota. The Top Uber
eats Driver master Chief from King Rory in Wisconsin. Seneca
Wallace guest by Sheen in Des Moines. Lonzo Ball, who
is twenty eight today from Late Night Drug tester Kent
Hrbeck Herbie from Freeman with a great Twins of All Time?
Who else do you have? Page down? Randy super freak
(38:34):
Moss see that there? Tucker Kraft, Green Bay's very talented
tight End from Tammy in Vags. I what say you, Lorena?
Speaker 4 (38:42):
I gotta go with ghost face Ben.
Speaker 1 (38:44):
No, it is Rod Gardner, Rod Gardner, the old Washington
Redskins back in three twenty two years ago, racist routines.
Year here we go gets grilled.
Speaker 5 (39:03):
But after the Ravens win on Sunday, linebacker Rokwan Smith
that it's the start of something special. The Ravens are
actually favored to win the division on most sports books.
Speaker 1 (39:12):
Do you think that's gonna happen?
Speaker 3 (39:15):
No?
Speaker 1 (39:16):
Their defense is terrible. You wouldn't know the way the
Bears played. I'm not there yet. They have a lot
to fix on defense. I'll give you this because of
the division. No one's taken advantage of the generosity of
the Ravens losing all those games earlier in the year.
Mathematically they're still in good shape. And Lamar is supposed
to come back on Thursday and all that. I wouldn't.
I don't trust him. How about that, I don't trust him? Next?
Speaker 5 (39:36):
But over the weekend, it was reported that Steve Sarkisian's
representatives have let it be known to NFL teams that
he'd be willing to make the jump to the NFL.
Speaker 1 (39:44):
Do you think there will be interest?
Speaker 2 (39:47):
No?
Speaker 1 (39:47):
I don't think he's a very good college coach. Why
would you bring him to the NFL. I think he's
a mid level college coach, and of course he did
everything he could deny the story. He's got one of
the most powerful agents in all of the NF. Well,
I think there's something there. I just don't think anyone's
gonna go out of their way to hire Steve Sarkisan
because he's not that great a coach.
Speaker 5 (40:06):
Next, then Bill Belichick in North Carolina came close to
upsetting Number sixteen Virginia in overtime.
Speaker 1 (40:12):
Yes, is this a glimmer of hope? Not just close? Count? Coop?
Does that you do you get anything like you get
a little gold star? No glimmer? No, no, no, no,
no no. How do we do, Coop? You passed the Senate,
went put it on the bar. I won the game
to start the week.
