(03:08):
The crown is yours and our lead this hour from
the aforementioned NFL, we start out in Philadelphia, a domination situation.
The Birds are back. The Birds are back as sig
Kwon Barkley ran for one hundred and fifty yards. He
had a majestic sixty five yard run for the touchdown,

(03:32):
and he caught one of Jalen Hurts, not one, not two,
not three four. Jalen Hurts had four touchdown passes. The Eagles, Hey,
gee l Ees Eagles. They put the dart on the
Giants thirty eight to twenty the final game on Sunday
there now Philly. It is interesting to node at Philly

(03:53):
won that game without wide receiver AJ Brown.

Speaker 2 (03:58):
My aching hammy, the hammy went whammy and AJ Brown
was not there.

Speaker 1 (04:03):
Now, Jalen Hurts said following the win, he said that
he doesn't think there's quote anything that the Eagles can't do.

Speaker 2 (04:12):
Shocking.

Speaker 1 (04:13):
He then said, here's the key part, the money part
of the quote. Jalen Hurts said, quote it's a matter
of working. He said, it's a matter of working the
right way. That's what he's a matter of working the
right way. So that's a good jumping off on. Let
us discuss the question is there's something more nefarious going on?
Can you read and listen between the words of Jalen

(04:36):
Hurts and his comments when he said the Eagles can
do anything they want working the right way clothes quote?
All right, So on this one, I've got velvet, alkaline
and rewards program, and we will combine all of these
things together and we are going to make a steak sandwich.

(04:57):
The rest of the world calls it a cheese steak sandwich.
But when you're in Philadelphia, this call a stak sandwich.
Can I get a steak sandwich?

Speaker 2 (05:02):
Sure? Why not? All right?

Speaker 1 (05:03):
So to kick off here to answer the questions. There's
something more nefarious involving Jalen Hurts and his quote that
the Eagles can accomplish anything working the right way. Of
course there is, and I'm not reaching on this one.
Let me make my elevator pitch.

Speaker 2 (05:20):
Why I believe.

Speaker 1 (05:21):
I'm gonna tell you why I believe there's more to
this story. So I love this. You know, if you
check your hands, and I'm talking about the hands of
Jalen Hurts, you check his hands right there, and Jalen
Hurts is using what I call the velvet glove approach.
It's the velvet glove punch right to the ribs, right

(05:41):
to the ribs of the Eagles teammate A. J. Brown, Well,
you're just making that up.

Speaker 2 (05:48):
No, I'm not. Let me make my elevator pitch.

Speaker 1 (05:50):
Like I said, you don't drop right way, meaning if
we do things the right way in a news conference,
in an interview, if you're jialing Hurts, if there's no
issue right unless there's a wrong way, you're doing things
the wrong way, is what I'm trying to say.

Speaker 2 (06:08):
And so you come out and said.

Speaker 1 (06:09):
Well, we do things the right way, you wouldn't need
to say that unless you have been doing things the
wrong way. Hello, it's kind of bobbies. That's code. That's
the quarterback. Passive aggressive verbage, passive aggressive verbige from the quarterback.

Speaker 2 (06:27):
That's saying.

Speaker 1 (06:28):
I like how it looked without the headache in the huddle.
I enjoyed that. I like that very much. Now, Philly was.

Speaker 2 (06:37):
A smooth operator. They little Harvard boat race.

Speaker 1 (06:40):
They jumped out ahead of the Giants and they never
looked back there once they got control. That was all
she wrote. And the Eagles do this without their star
wide receiver. That's not nothing. It's not nothing. And AJ
Brown has been sulking. They know it, we know it,

(07:02):
and Jalen Hurts knows it. And essentially what he said
was either you buy in if you're Aj Brown, or
the train is leaving the station due dysfunction junction. That
is not where we're gonna stop. We're gonna move on
from dysfunction junction. And that's it now. After some much
needed tough love on the radio show where we called

(07:23):
it like it is and pointed out the frailties of
Jalen Hurts as a quarterback and the lack of ability
as a big time passer and we use the bully
pulpit properly, properly well, Jalen Hurts bounce back, and he
has been cooking with gas ever since. We did a
couple of male monologues goofing on Jalen Hurts. The last
two weeks, seven touchdown passes, zero interceptions for Jalen Hurts,

(07:46):
seven touchdown passes, zero interceptions, a passer rating of a
buck fifty five, which I'm told is good.

Speaker 2 (07:53):
I'm told is good.

Speaker 1 (07:54):
Feasting on the suddenly lowly Minnesota Vikings defense and the
New York Giants hid and miss defense which took place
this past weekend. So reading the room, when you read
the room here, this wasn't some accidental quote by Jalen Hurts.
I don't believe it was. This was a quarterback marking

(08:16):
his territory and letting everyone know in a subtle way
that we haven't been doing things the right way. We've
been doing things the wrong way, and so I want
to keep doing things the right way.

Speaker 2 (08:30):
And so you're marking your territory.

Speaker 1 (08:31):
And Jaleen Hurts is saying that AJ Brown, without naming him,
has either again got to get with the program or
he's on the way out. The trade deadline is coming up.
The Eagles certainly look like more of a symphony than
a rock band this week, as they did against the
Minnesota formally Purple People Eaters in the previous game.

Speaker 2 (08:51):
There's no drama. It's worked the right way. We must
all work together, we must work the right way, etc.
Et cetera.

Speaker 1 (08:58):
Translation translation, less noise, more points. I was a talk
showst I want the noise. I'm all about the noise.
Bring on those demons. Oh, I'm all about the noise
all right now. Furthermore so, the story here for the
Giants headline Scataboo boo. Another photo I do not need
to see again. Another video clip I don't need to

(09:19):
see again. We were told the Giants' locker room was devastated.
They were beating and broke. Not because they got their
ass kicked by the Philadelphia Eagles. No, no, no, because
during this game one of the breakout stars for the
new revelation of Giant Nation. There one of the stars,
running back Cam Scataboo, suffered a Halloween like, gruesome season

(09:43):
ending ankle injury, the kind of an injury where the
foot is pointed one way and the leg is pointed
the other direction and it was not an intentional act.
And so one of the Giants offensive linemen I would
say the name, but you can't name a Giants offensive lineman.
So one of the Giants' offensive linemens said, quote of Scattaboo,

(10:03):
He's irreplaceable. Cam Scataboo is irreplaceable. So that's the jumping
off point on this one. The question does running back
Cam Scataboo fall into the quote irreplaceable category for the Giants?
So this is a police situation with a capitol P.

(10:25):
I'm not there yet. I love the player. It's a
nice story. Nobody thought he could make it. Played at
Arizona State, nobody thought he could make it in the NFL,
and he established himself. But this is not exactly Patrick
Maholmes breaking a toe or Josh Allen getting a concussion
and being out for two months or something like that.

Speaker 2 (10:43):
This is not it.

Speaker 1 (10:44):
It's a running back, and as good and as impactful
as Scataboo has been, we live in the year twenty
twenty five and we all know the NFL treats running
backs like a styrofoam coffee cup that you might enjoy.
Call now I don't drink coffee. You might enjoy coffee,
and you use that styrofoam cup and then when you're

(11:06):
done with it, you toss it away and you get
another cup if you want another cup of coffee. That's
how the NFL treats running backs. And it stings. Absolutely,
It absolutely stings. And Scataboo gave them some juice that
he was a guy that didn't take snaps off and
played through the whistle and all those hokey things that

(11:28):
you talk about, the type of player that he had been.
Let's not turn this into some kind of Greek tragedy.
It sucks that he got hurt. He's gonna be out
for a long time. Who knows if he'll come back
and be the same player. He had an operation in
Philadelphia last night. But you look around and the one
thing you cannot fake. The Giants will have another running back.

(11:50):
They'll plug and play. Somebody else will be in there.
They'll add somebody. That's what the NFL does. You get hurt,
next man up.

Speaker 2 (11:57):
That's it.

Speaker 1 (11:58):
You can't fake the and you can get a running back.
The Scataboo thing, though, he's like, the nickname should be
Alkaline because cam'scatted with a human version of a twenty
four pack of Triple A batteries. And it's not bad bunny,
it's energizer Bunny. This guy's like the energizer Bunny, and
he's gone. You can't replicate that. You can get production,

(12:22):
you're not gonna get that.

Speaker 2 (12:22):
Obviously. While that does matter, and that is a factor,
you don't.

Speaker 1 (12:29):
Build your game plan completely around the guy just because
he's gonna be bouncing off players. Even if he's stopped
short of the line, he's still bouncing off players and
all that. So, as long as you can get some
yards out of the running game, get some production, some touchdowns,
and most importantly blocking, then you'll figure out a way.
You'll figure out away the giants. Here's what they will do.

(12:52):
They will hold a pity party. They'll blow out some
candles on the cake, and then by next week Player
X will be at to the running back room and
he'll be ripping off five yard carries and people say,
I wish we had Scataboo. Where did Scataboo go? He's
not here. That's the NFL. The NFL is a monster
truck rally. That's what the NFL is. And somebody gets

(13:14):
run over, Just scrape off the bumper and the show
must go on and get another truck out there and
the obstacle course and see what you got now. Last
thing to Foxborough we go, where Patriots quarterback Drake May
was serenaded with MV pete, MV pete.

Speaker 2 (13:34):
Chance. He threw for two hundred and eighty two yards
and not one, not two, but three touchdowns, all of them,
I believe in the third quarter. If I have that correct,
I believe I do. I was watching this game. The
very good job there.

Speaker 1 (13:45):
Second half adjustments, halftime adjustments, which are bull crap. Anyway,
that's not the story. The Patriots beat off the lowly
Cleveland Browns. They enjoyed Browntown, paying a visit there, and
so the Patriots get a nice, comfortable win. The question
is this, is Patriots quarterback Drake May a legitimate contender

(14:12):
for the Most Valuable Player of the Year award.

Speaker 2 (14:15):
Now keep in mind his name is being floated.

Speaker 1 (14:18):
If you look ahead to MVP candidates for the twenty
twenty five NFL season, he is prominently mentioned.

Speaker 2 (14:26):
The fans having a great time.

Speaker 1 (14:28):
The game was lopsided, so they started serenading him with
MVP MVP. Here's the question and the answer here is
Drake May commenting on the interaction of the fans and
propping him up there talking about MVP chance.

Speaker 3 (14:43):
Drake, after your long run, the crowd started channing MVP, MVP.
Next play for the thirty nine yard touchdown, paston to
Kashawan more of the same.

Speaker 4 (14:51):
Did you hear it?

Speaker 3 (14:52):
What's your reaction to it?

Speaker 2 (14:53):
No, I didn't hear it.

Speaker 5 (14:54):
Oh Scott making fun of me about my slide back
in the huddle on the long run, So I didn't hear.
But the fans have been awesome all seasons for best
fans in the league, and they continue to show out
every week.

Speaker 1 (15:04):
So you want to write to sports clichede dot com?

Speaker 2 (15:07):
Was he wearing earplugs?

Speaker 6 (15:08):
Like?

Speaker 1 (15:09):
How do you not hear if it's coming on the
TV broadcast and I'm fussing around with my remote control
and it's popping up on my TV, how can he
not hear it? Bull crap. It's eplable. But as far
as the question get down to the meat of the matter.
Here is Patriot quarterback Drake May a legit contender in
the MVP race. So on this one, I am at

(15:31):
the part of the story where we pump the brakes.
I'm gonna pump the brakes on this. I'm not gonna
be Anny bright Side. Not that Drake May does not
deserve kudos for putting up monster numbers here. And to
quote the late great Danny Green, who briefly worked here
at Fox Sports, rate if you want to crowd his asked,
go ahead and crown him. But he is who he

(15:51):
thought he was, and we let him off the hook
and all that stuff. He's He's in the conversation but
not a contender. Does that make sense that Drake May
is the MVP conversation but not a contenter, Like he's
the person that sneaks behind the velvet ropes into the
VIP section. But he's not the star of the party.

(16:12):
He was not invited to the party. He's an interloper.
As of today, we.

Speaker 2 (16:18):
Have to worry about the show right now.

Speaker 1 (16:19):
As of today, Drake May is in the honorary mentioned
category through no fault of his own. The issue is
that he did start a game that the Pacers lost
to the Raiders, which is embarrassing, very very embarrassing, tremendously embarrassing,
and also you've beaten up bad defensive teams. You're doing

(16:43):
what you're supposed to do. You don't get MVP credit
for that. You're putting yourself in the honorary mentioned category.
That's what you're doing here. And it's like Mike Rabel's
team is cashing in on the Hostess rewards program. If
you've looked at the Patriots schedule here, they're on a burner.
As the kids say, they've beaten Twinkies, they've beaten ding Dongs,

(17:04):
donuts and zingers, and they've got ho hose up next.
So that's quite the schedule. Titans, Browns, Panthers, Saints talk
about a murderer's row unless it's not. That's like a
clearance aisle. Is what that is now? It is confidence boosting.
You think you're good, gives you the illusion that you're
better than you are. Beating up these bad teams, stat padding,

(17:26):
all that stuff now may fattening up against the flotsam
and jetsam of the NFL. Nevertheless, you can you cannot ignore,
cannot know it, cannot ignore the six and two record,
the five game winning streak. Right now, that's not nothing.
It's not nothing for Drake May and there is no

(17:49):
clear ENVP. Mahomes is playing tonight. The Chiefs have Washington
the old Redskins who changed their name, so that'll be tonight.
And Mahomes is loosely on top, but only because somebody
has to be on top. Dak Prescott went out there.
People were pumping him up. He went out there and
had another stinker for the Cowboys against the Broncos, So
you downgrade him. Baker Mayfield not a great stat line

(18:12):
for Tampa in a win.

Speaker 2 (18:14):
What a gift there? How bad are the Saints? Holy crap?

Speaker 1 (18:17):
So anyway, listen, the point is that Drake may is
an interloper in this conversation. He's on the campaign trail
with a granola bar and a bottle of water, but
not a serious contender in the room, but not at
the head of the table.

Speaker 2 (18:34):
In the room, but not at the head of the table.

Speaker 1 (18:37):
Now, if he keeps on moving up and no one
else takes advantage of this, we can revisit this conversation.
Generally speaking, though, it's very difficult to win an MVP
when your competition is the bottom feeders of bottom feeders
in the NFL, the hungry hushpuppies, of pro football.

Speaker 2 (18:55):
It is the Ben Mahler Show.

Speaker 2 (21:55):
I was over the weekend.

Speaker 1 (21:56):
I was in Vegas and we were in the hotel
and we had there was there was a show on
talking about things that happened around the new moon. Oh,
and it was on like the Discovery. You're one of
those channels I forget, which they're all the same to me.
Don't ask me why I was in my hotel room
watching TV, but for some reason I was.

Speaker 2 (22:15):
But yeah, it came up.

Speaker 8 (22:16):
So oh that's cool. Yeah, we're getting a lot more. Yeah,
it's very popular now. It's not so unusual.

Speaker 1 (22:24):
Well, and it's like it's the waves, It's everything on
the planet acts a little differently, right, right, the.

Speaker 8 (22:29):
Full moon is actually yeah, the gravitational pull of the
universe and the waves and so on, so I'm glad
people are tuning in more. That's good.

Speaker 1 (22:39):
Yes, of course here do we have anything we need
to be aware of here?

Speaker 8 (22:43):
At this point I heard your voice going a Rogers
yeah and Rogers yeah.

Speaker 2 (22:49):
Nice job by him in the second half. Holy crap.

Speaker 8 (22:51):
Yeah right, I just wanted to put in a quick call.
He's December two, nineteen eighty three, two fifty pm, Chico, California.
I have his birth time. He's really into astrology. In fact,
he has an astrology tattoo. I don't know if anyone knows.

Speaker 2 (23:09):
Oh yeah, where's this astrology? Listen?

Speaker 1 (23:11):
What part of his body is the astrology tattoo? I'm
going to say the left ask cheek?

Speaker 2 (23:16):
What about you? I was also thinking of booty cheek.
You know, I'll go with the tramp stamp in stack.

Speaker 1 (23:22):
That would be impressive. Coop, where do you think Aaron
Rodgers astrology tattoo is?

Speaker 2 (23:26):
What do you think on his ankle? Ankle? All right,
do we know? Do you know where the tattoo? What
part of the body the tattoos on?

Speaker 8 (23:33):
No? No, I thought I thought you knew in an
article and it said he's very into astrology. You know,
teaches webinars along with his teacher, even as an astrology tattoo.
So they didn't wear, but they didn't mention.

Speaker 1 (23:47):
Are we sure that's a real tattoo and not a
henna tattoo? You know it kind of come off after
a while. Yeah, it might be that.

Speaker 2 (23:52):
Who knows.

Speaker 8 (23:53):
You didn't specify, but you know you now.

Speaker 1 (23:56):
Have you seen his wife and all, my gosh, he
was all over TV last night?

Speaker 8 (24:00):
Oh yeah, who did you see?

Speaker 2 (24:02):
It was the imaginary girl. You're gonna say, no, way,
that was not your top sub jack.

Speaker 1 (24:08):
She's a lovely lady if I ever saw my apologies
to her. Steve Stevine Meatballs thinks she's beautiful.

Speaker 2 (24:14):
But he's blind.

Speaker 8 (24:15):
You know, he's a free spirit. You know, it's hard
to kind of, you know, get him to settle down.
Let's say that Sagittarius very much a free spirit and
the Scorpio moon, I mean, uh, you know, Lorena and
Coop know that they said something about a revenge game,
but it never came to that. But he does have
that in him. Just so you know, when I look

(24:36):
at his chart.

Speaker 1 (24:38):
Yeah, of course he's a human unless he's a lizard person.
Other than that, he's gonna be you want revenge. That's
how it works, right, exactly.

Speaker 9 (24:46):
So he did.

Speaker 8 (24:47):
And he also has Taurus rising, which makes him very determined.
We know Taurus energy.

Speaker 1 (24:52):
Yeah, that's right, baby, Watch out the door. The bull,
the bull. You can't stop the bull.

Speaker 2 (24:57):
All right, Andrew? I love that you call a big fan.
And how can people find you? Virgo? You used to
same axicon, right Virgo and service? Yes, yes, correct, all right,
very good.

Speaker 1 (25:07):
We'll have a wonderful bath. Thank you so much, thank you.
All right, the great this is he's a rockstar. Andrea
from Berkeley. Let's go to the international line. A man
that left the country, used to be called used to
be a regular caller on this show from North Carolina,
but he has moved to London. We welcome in legally
blind Christopher. Hello, legally blind Christopher.

Speaker 3 (25:30):
Well, mister Maller, as I try and get my VPN
to protect me from the British government of monitoring everything
I say and do, I have heard now that my
Michigan contacts have decided to stick their fingers and their
hands into some illegal booty, as we say here in London.
So the issue that I'm wondering, mister Mallers mister Rosier,

(25:51):
a former University of Michigan basketball player, mister Billups, a
former Kriston and the relationship of how Michigan seems to
constantly be involved in some sort of money laundering or gambling.
I remember the day of when Michigan basketball was involved
in this. So what my question is, as the FBI

(26:11):
and DJ continue this massive investigation, who do you think
is really involved at the top level besides the mafia?

Speaker 2 (26:20):
Well, how would I know.

Speaker 1 (26:22):
I'm not involved in it, but I would say the
mafia is the one controlling it. They probably this is
one of the great hustles, So like, all right, we'll
get these athletes, we'll give them a cut of money,
and we'll get all these fanboys and they'll show up
and they'll you know, pay a lot of money to
play poker with these guys. But I think that the
like I said earlier, the bigger issue is the prop bets.

(26:43):
Terry Rose here, and there's some rumors that Chauncey was
involved in that. Nothing I read the other day it
was it was not in the FBI report, But was
that the annoying podcast guy.

Speaker 2 (26:53):
That's ratting everyone out? The guy Pablo Torres or whatever.
I think that's his name.

Speaker 1 (26:57):
Yeah he He referenced possibility chance you might have involved
in some funny business there from what I read. More importantly,
forget about that. Don't bury the lead here, Chris. How's
London treating you? Are you staying there long term? You're
coming back to the States.

Speaker 3 (27:12):
I'm coming back and forth, mister Maller. I'm closing on
my house here in another two or three months.

Speaker 1 (27:18):
Oh, well, you're moving, You're buying a house. You're not
coming back. If you're buying a house, you're staying there.

Speaker 3 (27:23):
Well, no, no, no, no no, I have to from
the standpoint of residency. It takes me three years to
become a British citizen.

Speaker 1 (27:30):
You're you're becoming a British citizen. You're leaving you you
can become a dual citizen or leaving the States.

Speaker 2 (27:36):
Mark, yes, sir, okay, dual citizen. I got it.

Speaker 1 (27:40):
So what does that mean? You get to pay ridiculous
taxes in both countries? Is that what that means?

Speaker 6 (27:43):
Like?

Speaker 2 (27:44):
What benefit do you get out?

Speaker 3 (27:45):
So very much?

Speaker 6 (27:46):
So?

Speaker 3 (27:46):
And on top of that, I have to pass which
is great for me. I have to pass three different
levels of competency.

Speaker 4 (27:52):
I have to prove my job.

Speaker 3 (27:54):
I have to prove my retirement. I have to prove
the sale of my house, and on and on and on.
So even if I decide to get remarried, as I
pray to God, that doesn't happen again. The issue that
relates is to become a citizen, you have to live
in the country for a total of two hundred and
seventy days and can only go back to the United

(28:17):
States for that other period.

Speaker 9 (28:19):
If you go over that.

Speaker 3 (28:20):
Your count starts over again. You are not allowed to
have a visa to go back and forth. So right
now I'm traveling back and forth from London to North Carolina.
Taking care of business is necessary because you can do
that for two years with no restrictions. It's just to
become a citizen you have to go through that whole
three year process and pass three different exams.

Speaker 2 (28:42):
So that sounds like a different in the way they.

Speaker 3 (28:44):
Enjoy football here when the American teams come over, it's
completely different.

Speaker 1 (28:50):
Well, yeah, I've seen I've seen photo, i I've seen
videos and stuff that they are people wearing all kinds
of different jerseys of these games in London, like they
don't really care. They're not just there for the team.
It's like there's just out of sorts. All right, it's
good to hear you're alive. Number one, call anytime you want.
We're here, Chris legally blind, Chris there, Christopher in London.

(29:11):
Is it relocated? Obviously? Are there a lot of people
that retire to I know Florida. People retire to Florida,
they retire in Arizona.

Speaker 2 (29:19):
I don't know. Bud London.

Speaker 1 (29:21):
Dave in Houston, who's had a lot of changes over
the years. Hello, Dave, Welcome Dave Man.

Speaker 9 (29:27):
I know Lorena considers herself to be the number one
expert on love, but actually the number one expert on
women would be me.

Speaker 2 (29:38):
So how do you determine that you're the number one
expert on women?

Speaker 9 (29:42):
Well, I'm just going to give you an example of
my knowledge. So this is something your audience should know.
How do you determine the quality of a woman's orgasms?
So here's the answer. If it's mediocre, she says, oh my,
oh my, oh my. If it's really good, she says,
oh god, oh god, oh God. And if she's having

(30:04):
none at all, she says, oh Ben, oh Ben.

Speaker 1 (30:08):
Now darn ho there, you schmuck, you loser.

Speaker 2 (30:14):
I used to like you, you fraud. I dare you.

Speaker 9 (30:18):
Oh well, by the way, you only hit George Springer
twice in the last game. You're gonna have to do
better than that.

Speaker 1 (30:25):
The rumor is the Dodgers think he's cheating again, so
they once a cheat, are always a cheater. You would
know that living in the Houston area, so you know
all about that. And wait till tonight they are gonna
be all over Springer. I cannot wait the pregame introduction.

Speaker 2 (30:39):
Cheat cheat, This could be.

Speaker 9 (30:44):
Awesome human interest. Nothing like it.

Speaker 2 (30:48):
Go go write some more bad dad jokes. Okay, go away,
thank you as there is.

Speaker 1 (30:52):
Let's say hello to eeny meeny miny mode. Let's go

Speaker 5 (34:05):
Bro?

Speaker 2 (34:06):
Hey Bro? What's going on?

Speaker 6 (34:08):
Bro?

Speaker 4 (34:09):
Two things as soon as possible. One thing bumping off
of Andrea.

Speaker 2 (34:18):
Andrea, yes, Andreas she was just on.

Speaker 4 (34:20):
It reminded a lot of things from as I get older.
I'm reminded of things from a while back. Jimmy Patrix
had his third album, names after his recording studio, and
that's random on it. It had a song called Moon
turns Its High Gently Away, which is really cool because

(34:43):
they're all related, aren't they. But my thing I said
to Coop de Loup was October fourteenth, nineteen seventeen, a
little bit of trivia. We've all heard of John Heisman,
right of whom the Heisman Trophy was named after. It

(35:06):
was the highest scoring college football game ever. And you
know what the score was.

Speaker 1 (35:13):
Let's see it was Georgia Tech, right, Georgia Tech was well,
I forget I know this, but I don't what.

Speaker 2 (35:19):
Was the score?

Speaker 4 (35:22):
Yeah, and they let off on them.

Speaker 1 (35:25):
And the great thing about that if that happened today,
there would be a congressional investigation for running up the score.
There would be people demanding the coach get fired, and
that the school stopped playing football.

Speaker 2 (35:37):
If that happened today back then, nobody can crap.

Speaker 4 (35:41):
Hey one more thing?

Speaker 2 (35:42):
Yeah, what's that?

Speaker 4 (35:44):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (35:45):
One more thing?

Speaker 4 (35:46):
Just because just because I'm a graduate and I love
the Yellow Jackets or the the.

Speaker 2 (35:53):
Rambling Wreck of Georgia.

Speaker 4 (35:56):
Yeah, eight right now, and they're ranked number eighth.

Speaker 1 (36:00):
There's some propaganda. Kevin, get some sleep, man, you sound tired.
Get some rest, alright, buddy, go to bed. All right,
go ahead, there you go, the great Kevin in Florida.
You enjoyed his call, Yes, Mike the leprecaun. You thought
that was good.

Speaker 6 (36:13):
Yeah, it was fine.

Speaker 9 (36:15):
I had two hours sleep.

Speaker 6 (36:16):
I was at Bright Adams last night along with all
the old farts.

Speaker 2 (36:19):
No congratulations, all right, he was at Brian Ams whatever
he said there? Yeah, all right.

Speaker 1 (36:26):
We will have the Mallord Militia feud, the Mallord Militia
feud if you'd like to take.

Speaker 2 (36:32):
Yeah, excited about that.

Speaker 1 (36:34):
And people calling for the NFL, by the way, to
punish the Philadelphia Eagles and one player in particular. They
said it was a dirty tackle against Cam Scatterboo that
got him injured. So they're demanding NFL justice could look
for that, and Miles Garrett five sacks and lost the game.
First time that's ever happened. He gets five sacks and

(36:54):
losing game by more than like I think it was
like three or four points or something like that. So
that's how bad the Brown. We'll get to the Mallard
Militia feud and we will do it next.
