(00:58):
Mallor is always fun. But we are at the beginning
of the NBA season and I know you are mister NBA.
Oh Man, I don't know what topic you want to
talk about. We got all kinds of stuff going on.
Speaker 4 (01:14):
I have so many hot takes on all these things. Man,
it's amazing.
Speaker 3 (01:17):
Maybe we just you know, I'll set it up, you
knock them down. You know, you'd be the alley oop guy,
just toss it down on someone's neck, you know. How
about the new one to it.
Speaker 4 (01:27):
Thom Oh, Yeah, great to see the Clippers, Chris, and
that with a loss seems appropriate, right.
Speaker 5 (01:33):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (01:33):
And they you know, they they led you on a
little bit. KD hit a jumper, forced overtime and you're
still thinking, hey, the Clippers have a shot. No, they lost,
they did not win the game.
Speaker 4 (01:44):
But this is the NBA where the biggest story is
the players who are not playing well.
Speaker 3 (01:49):
Yeah, I mean that, that's yeah, that's part of it.
No Kawhi, no zion, you know. But we did have stars.
We had stars on the court across the association. On Wednesday, Eddie,
I actually was. I'm here randomly in Portland. I'm trying
to clean out my storage unit.
Speaker 4 (02:07):
You know that sounds like fun.
Speaker 3 (02:09):
It's an awesome time, let me tell you, But I was.
Speaker 4 (02:12):
I would enjoy that more than watching that NBA game though.
Speaker 3 (02:15):
That now, Eddie, that cuts deep right there? Is that
a true statement? Because I feel like it is you
would rather clean out a storage unit then watch high
flying NBA basketball. That's what you're saying.
Speaker 4 (02:30):
Yeah, at least I'll be getting like some exercise. There'd
be something positive coming out of it.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
You have to lift a bookshelf for something, you know,
move around a bedroom set.
Speaker 4 (02:39):
And maybe I find something I didn't Well, I didn't
know what happened to that.
Speaker 3 (02:43):
Wow, my many helmets. I forgot about this.
Speaker 4 (02:46):
Great, that's something valuable.
Speaker 3 (02:49):
This was a portion of how it sounded on ESPN.
The wall not like a Game of Thrones? Are you
a Game of Thrones fan?
Speaker 5 (02:56):
Eddie with the wall?
Speaker 4 (02:57):
I'm not, but I should be. It's kind of something
that it's been. It was something I didn't get into
and then I was like, oh, I don't want to
go back.
Speaker 3 (03:06):
And you know what, yeah, just a little late.
Speaker 4 (03:08):
Yeah, one day maybe when I retire, that'll be my
big thing. I'll go back and watch Game of Thrones.
Speaker 3 (03:15):
That'll be it. Huh. Yeah, Well they had the wall
on Game of Thrones. I don't know if that's what
inspired this thing for the Clippers, but it's just a
wall of fans that are abnormally close to the action
to the floor right there. And this was a portion
of how it sounded like this is Tim Legler doing
the color for the game on ESPN.
Speaker 4 (03:37):
It's definitely a different look than anything you're going to
see in an NBA arena of what that end looks like.
And clearly road tunes are gonna be shooting into down
the second.
Speaker 6 (03:48):
Half of the night.
Speaker 3 (03:49):
Yeah, KD of course. Kevin Durant, he said it's probably
the best arena he's ever been in. Gave a shout
out to Steve Balmer right there using his own money.
How about Eddie using his own cash to build the
Intuit Dome, And yes they are zero and one.
Speaker 4 (04:05):
I believe he could buy a championship.
Speaker 3 (04:07):
That's right, but it is supposed to be majestic over there.
Probably the funniest thing from Wednesday the Pistons with six
players on the court accidentally against the Pacers and that
resulted in a technical file right there. So the Pistons
not off to a great start, Eddie, as they lost
Game one as well, and they don't have a shock
into arena.
Speaker 4 (04:28):
Considering that that, you know they're a contender this year.
Speaker 3 (04:31):
Yeah, yeah, we're striving for the number one overall pick
is what I ran exactly right, Yeah, striving toward maybe
twenty wins, but hopefully a number one overall pick is
what they're looking for right there. I was at the
Blazers game earlier, Eddie. I saw the Warriors just smack
around poor Portland. But it was good to be there
for Opening night.
Speaker 5 (04:51):
You know, it's fine.
Speaker 4 (04:51):
I hope you got a hookup.
Speaker 3 (04:53):
I did good, good, Yeah, shout out to my guy.
Chad Dowing does a local radio here in Portland, and
he looked it up. I I went there last week.
They invited me in and I did an hour on
their show. It was always great to see him and
Dwight James does a local radio two. And Chad said, yeah,
I might have some extra tickets for the Blazer game,
(05:15):
and so I texted him. I'm like, hey man, you
have those tickets and he's like, let me check. Then
he hit me up. He's like, actually, we're going to
put you in the suite. I was in a freaking
so sweet like old school NWOS Scott Hall. You know
I was in the suite.
Speaker 4 (05:29):
You don't know that, but sure, gimme you know that, Eddie.
Come on, I don't know that.
Speaker 3 (05:34):
You have to you were not into nWo. You weren't
into that era. No, no, sorry, my goodness, Eddie, gosh,
I thought you would have you liked wrestling at all?
Speaker 4 (05:45):
Eh No, not really. It was one of those things
like when you were a kid, because all your friends
were kind of into it, you just kind of had
to absorb some of the knowledge of it.
Speaker 3 (05:56):
But uh, huh.
Speaker 4 (05:57):
Yeah, I'm not saying I never watched it, but I
would not say I was really into it.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
Yeah, man, I loved the nWo era. I know other
people love their other eras of wrestling. I wasn't into
a ton of it, but yeah, I love the nWo
era that was. That was a lot of fun. No,
no era for you though, Huh. No restling, not really No, sorry, man,
doesn't break my heart. Okay, so you're off to a
(06:22):
flying grinch start over here, Eddie. I gotta be honest.
You'd rather clean out a storage unit than watch an
NBA game. No Game of Thrones, And uh didn't get
down with any pro wrestling whatsoever, you know.
Speaker 4 (06:37):
Yeah. Other than that, though, everything's great.
Speaker 3 (06:40):
Barrel of laughs. Yeah, how's everything in the in your
life going?
Speaker 5 (06:44):
Everything good?
Speaker 4 (06:46):
Yeah, everything's good. We uh we had some mice. I
talked about that on yesterday's show, and well, we were
we had a flood in my uh in my kitchen
about a year ago and they are finally getting around
to fixing it now because of dealing with insurance companies
and whatnot, and so like the workers would leave the
garage door open and the and the door from the
(07:07):
garage and the house open, and then we surmised that
that's how the mice decided, hey, let's go check out
this place. And uh, you know, we saw the evidence
of them getting into certain things and the cupboards and whatnot,
and all of the stuff in our kitchen is is out.
You know, it's not that that would prevent them from
getting to it, to be, I guess, just because it
(07:27):
was in the cupboard. But anyway, so we had to
set traps all over the house. And uh, it's it's
it's good. We're told Halloween chick or treat, it will
all be finished. So we got all we got a
dead mice we can decorate for Halloween. But it's okay,
everything's good.
Speaker 3 (07:44):
Complete the decorps right there. So how many dead mice
are we talking over the last.
Speaker 4 (07:48):
Year, over the last year, No, this is just I mean,
it's it's all been. It's because Okay, the repairs just
started a couple of weeks ago. God, so that's when
this all. We noticed the evidence of a lot of
a lot of mouse poop.
Speaker 3 (08:03):
Oh yeah, we got that going on.
Speaker 4 (08:05):
So I would say we've had about eight to ten
dead mice at this.
Speaker 3 (08:10):
Point growing family over here.
Speaker 4 (08:12):
Well, I'm told they travel in packs, so yeah.
Speaker 3 (08:15):
Wow.
Speaker 7 (08:16):
Now I talked about decorating with these mice, which makes
me think about like mouse taxidermy. Right, yeah, have you
seen those cute little figurines of stuffed mice and stuff girls?
And you can do all sorts of stuff.
Speaker 4 (08:32):
Wow. This reminds me of our friend Petros who joined
the show after this one and talking about his daughter's
hamster dying in them, considering they might stuff the stuff it.
Apparently they stuff it through the outdoor. There only only
fifteen dollars, Brian to get your pet hamster stuffed professionally.
Speaker 3 (08:53):
Wow, that's very affordable.
Speaker 4 (08:55):
Who knew, right?
Speaker 7 (08:56):
I show you these pictures though, they're pretty creative.
Speaker 3 (08:59):
Which show was PetroSA on? Ed?
Speaker 4 (09:01):
He was on the Two Pros and a Cup of
Joey's weekly appearance on that fine program?
Speaker 5 (09:05):
Cool?
Speaker 3 (09:05):
Yeah, that's great.
Speaker 4 (09:06):
That's great.
Speaker 3 (09:08):
Does he do what is it like a college football
type thing?
Speaker 4 (09:11):
You know with Petros, it's a cornucopia of interesting events.
It's it's the kind of it's then the usually I
think it's in the final hour, get like an l
a flavor, right, yeah, yea, I think it's going out
here in Los Angeles. And you know they talked about
Petros Petros, Uh, you talk a little college football, you
know there'll be an la feel to it. Though he
talked about Fernando Elnezuela, the Lebron James ridiculous thing with
(09:33):
his kid.
Speaker 3 (09:34):
Oh, I'm sure that brought a tear to your eye, Eddie.
Speaker 4 (09:36):
Oh my god. I threw up in my mouth a
little bit, to be honest with you. But really, thankfully
Petros is on board with with the reality about stupid
that is.
Speaker 3 (09:44):
But oh it disgusted him as well. Oh god, I
mean I liked Lebron's tweet. I didn't physically like it,
you know, but I saw it. Well, not because I
didn't actually see it, I just saw a screenshot of it,
but just about yeah, yeah, with Lebron and his son
Bronny being on the court at the same time NBA
History on Tuesday night, and I mean it's chill. You
(10:09):
can hear the violin music in the background. And he
tweeted Lebron did Hollywood couldn't write a better script, so
we helped them write it and brought it to them.
Speaker 5 (10:21):
History was made. Huh.
Speaker 4 (10:23):
He sure helped him, all right, he helped him for one.
Speaker 3 (10:29):
For two you gotta yeah, you got it was like
a tip shot missed that, but yeah, I got a board,
got a board, Coop.
Speaker 5 (10:37):
Did it bring a tear to your eye?
Speaker 8 (10:38):
You know you have a heart. I wouldn't say about
a tear to my eye. I thought it was cool,
But you know, I'm just one of those people like, look,
yeah he didn't earn it.
Speaker 5 (10:52):
Do I care?
Speaker 8 (10:55):
Like it was still cool? It's a cool moment, Like yeah,
I don't. I just don't know how you can deny that, but.
Speaker 4 (11:01):
I would like it's easy, really easy.
Speaker 8 (11:04):
Look, it's something that you've never seen before and might
probably never see again.
Speaker 4 (11:08):
It's great if it's legitimate, But if it's manufactured, how
I don't. I don't see how that's great. Look because
it's Ken and Ken Free Senior was great because they
both deserve to be in the major leagues and then
playing on the field at the same time. That was amazing.
And if Lebron's kid deserved to be in the NBA
because he was a really good player, that would be cool.
(11:29):
I would say that's cool. But he doesn't, and.
Speaker 3 (11:31):
It's not okay. So Eddie, I know your answer, and
I disagree with your answer.
Speaker 4 (11:37):
Let me just not smart.
Speaker 3 (11:39):
But that's okay, okay, all right, man low blow, all right,
can keep the punches up, like Mills Lane once said, Eddie.
Speaker 4 (11:46):
But hell, you're in for Ben. You know we can't
get along.
Speaker 3 (11:49):
No, it's okay, it's all right. I get it. I
know that you think he didn't deserve it, which I
agree with. So in your mind, that basically nullifies any
cool part of this story, right, Like that would be
your stance, right because I.
Speaker 5 (12:08):
Agree he didn't.
Speaker 3 (12:09):
Ronnie did not earn this, but he's there and for
this to be the first time in NBA history that
a father and son have been in the league together
at the same time, let alone on the same team
on the same court. Even though he didn't deserve it
or earn it, that moment is still cool to me.
But in your book, no, because he didn't earn it.
No coolness.
Speaker 4 (12:30):
It's the opposite of cool for me. It's like offensive
that that they would allow this to happen. You know,
you can't really play, but we're going to pay you
to be on the team because your dad has Look,
that's it'd be no but no.
Speaker 9 (12:42):
But it's not completely the truth though, because it's it'd
be one thing if the guy couldn't play basketball at all,
I mean he was, now you just put a qualifier
now at that level.
Speaker 4 (12:54):
Well, it is professional basketball. What are we talking about here?
Speaker 5 (12:57):
Yeah, but there's lots of but they allow it.
Speaker 9 (13:00):
There's lots of people that him at USC, there were
there have been lots of people over the course of
the end the history of the NBA that have made
it to the NBA that didn't belong there.
Speaker 3 (13:09):
It's true.
Speaker 5 (13:11):
What about that?
Speaker 4 (13:12):
Like who what I mean?
Speaker 5 (13:14):
Like who? Tons of Like j R.
Speaker 3 (13:16):
Smith's brother, he didn't belong there.
Speaker 2 (13:19):
J R.
Speaker 4 (13:19):
Smith's brother.
Speaker 3 (13:20):
Yeah, he was a you know, benchwarmer for a little while.
Speaker 4 (13:23):
Did they sign him just because he was his brother?
Speaker 3 (13:25):
Pretty much?
Speaker 4 (13:25):
Yeah, thats stupid too.
Speaker 3 (13:27):
Well, yeah, it's true, but coops, right, it has happened before, and.
Speaker 5 (13:31):
Adam Morrison I mean, he was in all real wrong college,
but he sucked in the NBA.
Speaker 4 (13:38):
Okay, but he deserved to get a chance to suck
in the NBA. Yeah, But I mean, so we're just
like Bron's kid wasn't even good at USC. We're so like,
we're but heart about him playing for three minutes.
Speaker 9 (13:50):
Like I don't I don't know. Yes, we heard about
him being in the league who was missing opportunity was
better than him. I doubt that. I doubt that.
Speaker 4 (14:04):
I really think that there's no guy in the G
League or D League or whatever it's called that is
it better than Lebron's kid that should be playing out there,
should be sitting on the bench.
Speaker 3 (14:13):
There's zero doubt about that. There's no doubt about that.
Speaker 5 (14:16):
I get it.
Speaker 3 (14:17):
Hey, I understand that where that shouldn't be his spot.
I totally understand that. But even with that awesome moment,
it's not awesome.
Speaker 8 (14:28):
It's standing.
Speaker 6 (14:32):
Fraud.
Speaker 5 (14:33):
I don't care. I don't care, do not care.
Speaker 3 (14:36):
I don't care because why it's Lebron James and his
kid on the court at the same time, And are
we talking about a difference maker from the G league?
Speaker 5 (14:44):
I mean, what are we talking about here.
Speaker 3 (14:46):
Okay, so he's better than Bronny, but he's gonna get
maybe two minutes a night, maybe on average.
Speaker 5 (14:52):
Exactly exactly right.
Speaker 4 (14:55):
I have fabricated moments are awesome. I don't get it.
What a low are of what is awesome in sports
these days.
Speaker 3 (15:03):
I mean, hey, I get your position.
Speaker 8 (15:05):
I'm not saying awesome, I'm saying cool. Yeah, there's definitely
a difference there.
Speaker 4 (15:10):
Yeah, say real headshaker for me. Go ahead, guys, Hey,
enjoy your cool moment.
Speaker 3 (15:15):
No problem, Eddie, anything that gets you fired up. I
mean that was an NBA strong opinion. Right, that's beautiful
right there. He got you to care about a product
that you don't care about whatsoever.
Speaker 5 (15:29):
How can that be all?
Speaker 4 (15:30):
That's an interesting spin on it. But okay, right, I
wouldn't say he got me to care. He got me
to He got you. You know what he did. He
did something that I was surprised that he got me
to actually dislike the NBA even more than I already
disliked it. So kudos to him.
Speaker 3 (15:46):
He got you to feel good, James. Yeah, the James's
got you to feel and I like this. Uh lebron
closed out his tweet hashtag James Gang. You gotta love
that as well.
Speaker 9 (15:59):
Can I make a couple of comments about stuff that
you talked about a little bit earlier in the in
the segment, but.
Speaker 3 (16:04):
You have some hard hitting NBA points of view here, Coop.
Speaker 4 (16:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (16:08):
Well, first of all, I just want to you know,
I want to get this out of the way because
many people are gonna call me and ask me and
tweet me and ask me and so so before you
do that, I'm just want to let you know that
Ben is not in tonight because he was so embarrassed
that the Clippers lost the first game of the season
and the Lakers won their first game of the season.
So he just it screwed up his mojo. He didn't
(16:29):
have a monologue, and I believe that's what happened.
Speaker 2 (16:32):
Uh.
Speaker 8 (16:33):
And then second of all, Steve Bamber is just the
biggest dork of all times and it is not endearing
at all.
Speaker 5 (16:42):
He's got passion so cool.
Speaker 9 (16:44):
So cool, it's so cool, it's great. How is that toilets?
He's such a doufish.
Speaker 3 (16:52):
If he was the Lakers guy instead, you'd be like,
this guy has passed.
Speaker 4 (16:58):
Are you saying money can't buy coolness?
Speaker 8 (17:01):
If he was the Lakers owner, I'd be happy because
we'd have deep pockets.
Speaker 5 (17:05):
But I would still be saying, how much of a
ef and Doorky is?
Speaker 4 (17:09):
No way?
Speaker 3 (17:09):
I don't buy a no chance whatsoever. You'd be like
this guy. If every team owner could have the passion,
like one tenth of the passion that Steve Balmer has,
the league would be in better hands. That's what you'd
be saying. If he was the Lakers.
Speaker 4 (17:23):
No, I wouldn't.
Speaker 3 (17:24):
You would. It'd be a complete one eighty. I see
right through you, Koop and your clippers hatred right there.
I will not stand for it, will not. We got
a lot to do this evening slash early morning. Feel

at Eddie on Fox Moron, and maybe if you listen

So that's a lie, all right, Ben, We'll prepare for

of the show and now live from the tyrak dot
Com Fox Sports Radio studios. In for Ben Mallor, it is.
Speaker 3 (18:57):
Brian now thank you. Ed so off the air. Love
talking to Lorena and Coop. And I just posed a
random question to Coop because Lorena was playing some Lincoln
Park music that you just heard right there, and I
just simply asked, would you have raged at a Lincoln
Park show, you know, years ago? And Coop quote unquote
(19:20):
just went bleep, Yeah, he was into it. Would you
have gone? And ye I know you're a concert guy,
Eddie that would you have just gone? Would you have
gone and been like heavy into a Lincoln Park show?
Speaker 4 (19:33):
Hmm, that's an interesting question. I I'm not a big
as big a fan of their music, you know when
they were all together to probably buy a ticket to go,
But if someone offered a ticket, I think I would
probably go and I would have a good time. Kind
of that kind of thing.
Speaker 3 (19:53):
Fair enough. Yeah, they've got a new female singer right now.
Speaker 4 (19:57):
Oh is that right? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (19:58):
They do.
Speaker 7 (19:59):
I think she was the that they could get to
sounding like Chester.
Speaker 4 (20:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (20:03):
That's tough. That's such a signature voice, right, I don't know.
Speaker 7 (20:06):
Yeah, it's hard to duplicate.
Speaker 4 (20:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (20:08):
Well, so they were my introduction to heavy music.
Speaker 7 (20:12):
Because they're like PG thirteen exactly.
Speaker 8 (20:14):
Well, no, I mean, that's exactly why my mom would
not let me listen to a lot of music.
Speaker 3 (20:21):
You're like, Mom, I want to listen to Slayers.
Speaker 4 (20:24):
Turn into a Serial killer?
Speaker 3 (20:25):
Right, yeah?
Speaker 8 (20:26):
Yes, But Lincoln Park didn't have any cussing, and so
I was allowed to listen to it. So that was
my introduction to heavy music, and so there's always a
place in my heart for them. But I only know
the first three albums.
Speaker 4 (20:38):
You might find this interesting coup. The very studio in
which we are recording from back in the day was
rock Line, and one of the cooler people they had
in performing live was Lincoln Park.
Speaker 5 (20:49):
Oh wow, Okay, can you think I could find that
on YouTube?
Speaker 4 (20:53):
I don't know if YouTube existed back then.
Speaker 8 (20:55):
I mean, I mean you can find videos of Woodstock
on YouTube.
Speaker 4 (20:59):
Well okay, fair enough, But I mean I don't know
that they were they were, you know, filming it back then,
is what I'm saying, because that wasn't the thing like
now it would be totally a thing rock Line, rock.
Speaker 3 (21:08):
Line, Yeah, yeah, Chester, I.
Speaker 4 (21:14):
Tell you brand these young kids I'm working with.
Speaker 3 (21:16):
I know it. No appreciation for Yeah, no appreciation for
true music, Eddie, right, that sort of thing, little punks. Yeah,
but Mark Morton, you know, that was one of the
bands Coop might have wanted to get into, right, heavy
metal band. The mom might have said no. But Mark Morton,
one of the guitarists from Lamb of God, did a
(21:38):
song with Chester Bennington while he was still with us,
and pretty good song. Pretty good single with those two.
I think it's cross off might be the song, but
not bad. You might dig that one, Coop if you
check that one out. Pretty good job. The other thing
that Coop said he had other bad news from me, Eddie.
This is the thing I have to tell you. So
(22:00):
Coop has gotten me into this evil confidence pool. We've
done this for years now.
Speaker 4 (22:06):
So is this the ben Ma show one?
Speaker 3 (22:08):
No, it's a different one. Yeah. But you pick every
game against the spread, and then you put a number
of confidence points on each game.
Speaker 4 (22:17):
Oh. Interesting, a hybrid of a couple of different things.
Speaker 5 (22:20):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (22:20):
So like this NFL week Week eight, there are sixteen
total games, So the game you feel most confident on
you would put sixteen points, and then fifteen fourteen and
so on. And so I had a horrible Week seven,
and I was telling Koble like, oh dude, I just
glanced at my phone. My record socked. I threw my
phone down and I'm like, I don't even want to
(22:41):
see it. I'm terrible in this thing this year, Eddie
horrible And Coop said, oh yeah, I saw you've almost
finished in last place. I'm like, are you serious?
Speaker 5 (22:49):
It was that bad?
Speaker 3 (22:50):
He was like, yeah, not this week, another week, not
even So I almost finished in last in another week
and was dreadful this past week in this confidence bool,
I've been terrible.
Speaker 8 (23:01):
Well, so there are there are two hundred and twenty
six people total in this confidence pool, oh Man and
Brian for the season season long standings is in one
hundred and ninety first place.
Speaker 5 (23:13):
I'm not the two hundred's baby.
Speaker 3 (23:15):
I was just bracing for the two hundreds right.
Speaker 4 (23:18):
There, who gambles regularly.
Speaker 3 (23:21):
Yeah, and not a good mixture. But but that's the thing,
Eddie is there are so many different ways to gamble
with prop bets and the total like the over under
the game. There are so many different ways where I
don't bet a whole lot of sides, like do you
have the Packers minus three or the Titans or the
Texans plus three? That sort of thing, right, I've stayed
(23:44):
away from the sides, mostly doing props. I do a
lot of props and totals and in game stuff. I
do a lot of in game bettings.
Speaker 5 (23:52):
So you're such a degenerate I am.
Speaker 3 (23:55):
I've a full fledged coop. I was life betting the
Warriors and Blazers while I was at the game.
Speaker 8 (24:00):
You know, I love all that stuff too, But I
feel like I do drastically worse when I start doing
props than when I just pick the games.
Speaker 3 (24:14):
Hey, man, it's tricky no matter what. The NFL is
not an easy league to bet on in profit consistently.
But my record should not be this bad, Eddie. It's
it's dreadfully bad picking sides in that confidence pool. Or
the Sunday Morning Show, right countdown to kickoff, we have
Bill Krackenberger on the show. He's a professional andy capper. Yeah,
(24:37):
and we do the Crack Challenge. So that's you pick
five games against the crack challenge. Yeah, but you pick
this is a different version, right, you pick five games
against the spread ten minutes before the early kickoff time.
And that's when the lines are as sharp as they
(25:00):
can be, right, as nuanced as they can be. And
Jeff Schwartz and I both went over fifty percent last year,
and so Crack is like, you can't do it again,
can't do it again this season? And my record is
freaking disgusting in that thing, Eddie. I need to pick
it up because it's embarrassing. It's just not good. It
shouldn't be that bad.
Speaker 4 (25:19):
I'm embarrassed for you.
Speaker 3 (25:21):
Yeah, but hey, you know what is the key to
turning it around? This's gonna sound strange. I believe the
key is Puck the world in the final hour of
the show. Yes, that is the missing Jujui.
Speaker 4 (25:33):
I gotta get you betting on the NHL. Can I
Can I make that happen somehow? I know you don't
need much of a push probably to bet on anything.
Speaker 3 (25:41):
But absolutely, Eddie, I'm not opposed to betting on NHL.
Speaker 4 (25:45):
Action actually have There's a certain listener in Cincinnati who
will ask me questions occasionally and I will give him
advice and he's done pretty well. Actually really, oh.
Speaker 9 (25:54):
Yeah, this is something that could get me to like
start watching NHL. There you go, if there's like a
solid consistent like you know, if you're good enough to
where I can tail your picks, Eddie, and right and cash.
Speaker 5 (26:06):
I will watch those games.
Speaker 3 (26:08):
I will to Eddie if you give me some winning picks.
Speaker 4 (26:11):
Oh man, you guys are getting all excited about that.
Speaker 3 (26:13):
Just text me from time to time, like, I take
this guy to score a goal, just do it, check
it off the picks. Yeah, Loreina, you're a genius pucking picks.
You know whatever, Do something like that.
Speaker 2 (26:28):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Mellor
Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific.
Speaker 3 (26:33):
That's kind of weird with your NHL only one game
after a full slate yesterday. We can't have like three
or four games. It's kind of weird, right.
Speaker 4 (26:41):
Well, I mean they don't. They don't want a lot
of teams playing on back to back nights, and I
guess they can avoid it, but it was I was
a special NHL thing, kind of a gimmicky thing, trying
to get people to hey, look at us. Everybody's playing
on this one night. It's the only time we're gonna
do it all season long.
Speaker 3 (26:55):
And so okay, I'd say let's get a couple of games,
you know, a little double header action. It's just weird
for the league. I don't like it. I vote thumbs
down on that idea myself. But hey, what do I know.
Let's go out to the militia here eight seven seven
ninety nine on Fox is your number? Our guy hollering
James up first, let's hear from hollerin what's going on?
Speaker 5 (27:16):
James? You're on Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 4 (27:20):
He he's awake.
Speaker 3 (27:20):
What's up?
Speaker 5 (27:21):
Hollerin?
Speaker 3 (27:22):
How are they?
Speaker 4 (27:23):
That's some of his finest work right there, James, Do
you know that that's you? That that sound effect we
play is you snoring?
Speaker 6 (27:32):
The best?
Speaker 4 (27:34):
Like this playing for Lorena? This is you James listening,
This is you?
Speaker 5 (27:45):
Thank you?
Speaker 7 (27:45):
Actually a sound by it.
Speaker 3 (27:48):
James.
Speaker 4 (27:49):
I thought I thought he might be embarrassed by that,
but apparently he does not. He's not embarrassed.
Speaker 3 (27:54):
I thought that was you like crop dusting the first time?
Speaker 4 (27:57):
Yeah, it does d sound like that. I don't know
what he said, Well, what's.
Speaker 5 (28:02):
Going on with green Bay?
Speaker 6 (28:03):
Holleren only embarrassed? I know events in Wisconsin and that's
my near Green Bay.
Speaker 3 (28:09):
That's right, that's right. They're still looking up at you
in the standings there, hollering, hey, man, with me and.
Speaker 6 (28:15):
The standards, what are my Dodgers doing to get those Yankees.
Speaker 4 (28:20):
Whoa when did you become a Dodgers fan? This is
his news boy, the.
Speaker 6 (28:24):
Brand new white Dodger's head today at Royal Tobacco. I
got three hats for fifty bucks. What a deal, you know,
jackin the meet and Beat when Ben saw me, I
don't mean to bring Ben him as a picture, but
when Ben saw me at the Mermaids, when I had
the big Jack bean with Jack and get out my
hands and knees the Jack and and his wife to
(28:45):
bring me to the Mermaids to see Ben so he
can meet Holleren James.
Speaker 3 (28:53):
There was a lot going on right there, Holloweren, I
gotta be honest with you.
Speaker 4 (28:56):
He met Ben. Ben was in Minnesota a few years
back and he got to meet the great Hollowy James.
And what an amazing moment that was in Ben's.
Speaker 5 (29:04):
Life, touching.
Speaker 3 (29:05):
What was it like Lebron and Brownie on the court
at the same time.
Speaker 4 (29:07):
Nothing could be as wonderful as that. Oh no, it
wasn't that good, But yeah close, I got you.
Speaker 6 (29:12):
Oh canomical cot my hiding made a gumming about Bets
Webb about Dancy when her she looks.
Speaker 4 (29:19):
So good you dance with Ben's, My goodness, what a
special night for you.
Speaker 6 (29:28):
That was a very special night. And meet him with
Jack to bring me to see Big Ben.
Speaker 3 (29:35):
Hey, by the way, Halloween, what are your Vikings gonna
do tomorrow night against the Rams?
Speaker 6 (29:40):
Oh? They better keep Madgine Stafford and check that deep.
Better step up to the forefront and playing solid defense.
Those linebackers better move up to the Latis village. Drop
back in the coverage. But isn't TJ. Hockinson making his
debut after injury?
Speaker 4 (29:58):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (29:59):
I think he will be back.
Speaker 6 (30:02):
Vegas has That did shake off some of the coverage
on Justin Jefferson.
Speaker 4 (30:08):
Broken down hardcore Viking talk there from hollering.
Speaker 6 (30:11):
James, I bought a new Viking tad.
Speaker 4 (30:14):
Oh my god, you are just uh, I mean you're
a hat master. Yeah, it's too many hats, I think.
Speaker 6 (30:25):
And I got my Vikings had with my Raiders Raiders.
Speaker 4 (30:28):
What are you doing with the Raiders hat on?
Speaker 6 (30:31):
I did that for the Monte Adams, And I was
hoping he come to the Vikings like Aaron Rodgers, but
that didn't happen.
Speaker 4 (30:39):
You thought if he bought a Raiders at he would
come to Minnesota. Interesting.
Speaker 5 (30:44):
By the way, what's the hat look like?
Speaker 3 (30:45):
Holler? And I'm curious because you see this on the
sidelines that has like the logo on it, and it's
a lot of different colors, almost looks plaid.
Speaker 5 (30:53):
Is it one of those or something else?
Speaker 6 (30:55):
No, it's black as silver and just those Raiders on it.
Speaker 3 (30:59):
Right, I was must say Vikings on it. What do
you mean it says Raiders on it?
Speaker 6 (31:03):
No, the Viking cat is slack and purple.
Speaker 3 (31:10):
Okay, all right? So wait, well you got a two
and one, You got a Raiders hat and the Vikings
had You got a Dodgers hat too.
Speaker 2 (31:16):
There was the Super Bowl, kids, Stabler and Dave CatSper kicked.
Speaker 6 (31:21):
The ball into the Enzo and scored when Ray Guy
hit a pump block by Fred McNeil or Matt Blair
to turn that Super Bowl around, And the Vikings in
the blues in sixteen to six and nigteens and seven?
Speaker 4 (31:40):
Were you alive?
Speaker 6 (31:41):
Then?
Speaker 1 (31:42):
You know?
Speaker 3 (31:43):
I didn't even think about that, Eddie. His guys lost
to your guys. Steelers beat the Vikings like sixteen to well.
Speaker 4 (31:49):
To be fair, a lot of teams beat the Vikings
in the Super Bowl.
Speaker 6 (31:52):
The four.
Speaker 4 (31:55):
That's right, that's right.
Speaker 3 (31:56):
Yeah, you don't have to take that hollering. You can
talk trash to head.
Speaker 2 (31:59):
And what.
Speaker 4 (32:05):
I can only give you half a hard time. My
dad used to eat. I was not turned onto that
we had enough yet. Yeah, yeah, yeah, thank you. I
(32:26):
was waiting for you to actually to a preemptive strike there.
Speaker 3 (32:29):
But yeah, I mean, I just I needed to get them.
Speaker 4 (32:31):
We'll just let him go on forever.
Speaker 5 (32:33):
Just he's dobbly snoring when I.
Speaker 3 (32:38):
Fair so he was awake, you know, he had to
get every last drop of you know, hollering. James goodness there, Okay,
eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox is the number
more from the militia coming up. It seems like there's
a Bomber take and the not too distant future very
interested about that. Will you agree with and say Bomber's
(33:01):

Speaker 3 (33:46):
Well, thank you, Eddie. As promised, we go straight out
to the militia. We'll get to the NFL players new faces,
so to speak here at the top of the hour.
But hearing from the militia. I'm curious about this because
Coop Coop to some some cheap shots at a Clippers
team owner Steve Balmer, calling him a dork, you know
that sort of thing, and Pierre yeah, And I'm curious
(34:10):
what Pierre has to say. He's got a bomber point
of view to share with us. Pierre, what's up man,
You're on Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 10 (34:16):
Hey guys, how are you doing tonight.
Speaker 5 (34:18):
Good.
Speaker 6 (34:20):
Oh so yeah.
Speaker 10 (34:21):
First thing, I got in my car and I turned
on the radio and I was listening to you guys,
and I was hearing I mean, it was already tough
watching that Clippers game and seeing that loss, and going
there tonight, it was a really it was a good time.
And just hearing the bashing about Bomber, there's I mean,
there's no reason to hate. You know, we made we
(34:42):
made space for the Lakers and their you know, new home,
I mean in their old home, and we have our
own home. And I don't know, I think Steve Bomber
is the greatest owner in the NBA and just like
everyone's just like you guys said, if every owner was
that way, the league would be great. I mean, just
seeing his like it felt like a playoff game tonight,
(35:05):
seeing his like face, his reactions to the game. He like,
he really connects with the fans. You know, that's literally
how I start watching the game tonight, all nervous shaking.
We know we don't have the best team, but we
all have hope, and I feel like he gives us
I hope for Clipper fands, not many of us around, but.
Speaker 5 (35:26):
Yeah, Pierre, Pierre, Yeah, okay, buddy, Yeah, all right, we're good.
Speaker 6 (35:33):
We're good. Are you crying?
Speaker 10 (35:39):
It's just another season for us Clipper fans. But at
least we got our new stadium and Bomber is the
greatest owner, that's right.
Speaker 8 (35:47):
And if you need to go to the bathroom, there's
a toilet right around the corner.
Speaker 3 (35:51):
No, that that's just a cheap shot from a lake though. No,
it's true that that's just that's Laker hatred right there.
Speaker 6 (35:58):
I count.
Speaker 10 (35:59):
I'll count out, count every toiler in there, and let
you know I'm to there.
Speaker 3 (36:06):
I do love that drop from bomb toilets.
Speaker 5 (36:09):
That's the guy's got enthusiasm.
Speaker 3 (36:12):
I don't know if he's the greatest team owner in
the NBA, but uh, he definitely has enthusiasm. I'll put
it this way. He's great for the NBA. I mean,
there's no denying that. That's great. You want someone that
makes you fall asleep like most of the team owners do,
or are these guys that you don't even know what
their names are? No, I'd take Balmber every timely.
Speaker 10 (36:34):
Yeah, it's it's hard to get those fans. He's trying,
you know, it's hard to get those fans and they
especially when they're all on the Lakers.
Speaker 3 (36:41):
But yeah, hey, no doubt he's fighting the fight. Thank you, Pierre,
good stuff. You agree with that, there, Eddie greatest team owner, balmber.
Speaker 4 (36:50):
No, I would not. You would not agree with that. Look.
I appreciate his enthusiasm. I appreciate that he seems to
care about his team. There are certainly owners in different
sports that don't. And but he is kind of dorky.
It's hard to say he's not dorky.
Speaker 3 (37:08):
It's a blend of both apparently. Okay, all right, we
got some new NFL faces. We shall explain

(00:58):
Mallor is always fun. But we are at the beginning
of the NBA season and I know you are mister NBA.
Oh Man, I don't know what topic you want to
talk about. We got all kinds of stuff going on.
Speaker 4 (01:14):
I have so many hot takes on all these things. Man,
it's amazing.
Speaker 3 (01:17):
Maybe we just you know, I'll set it up, you
knock them down. You know, you'd be the alley oop guy,
just toss it down on someone's neck, you know. How
about the new one to it.
Speaker 4 (01:27):
Thom Oh, Yeah, great to see the Clippers, Chris, and
that with a loss seems appropriate, right.
Speaker 5 (01:33):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (01:33):
And they you know, they they led you on a
little bit. KD hit a jumper, forced overtime and you're
still thinking, hey, the Clippers have a shot. No, they lost,
they did not win the game.
Speaker 4 (01:44):
But this is the NBA where the biggest story is
the players who are not playing well.
Speaker 3 (01:49):
Yeah, I mean that, that's yeah, that's part of it.
No Kawhi, no zion, you know. But we did have stars.
We had stars on the court across the association. On Wednesday, Eddie,
I actually was. I'm here randomly in Portland. I'm trying
to clean out my storage unit.
Speaker 4 (02:07):
You know that sounds like fun.
Speaker 3 (02:09):
It's an awesome time, let me tell you, But I was.
Speaker 4 (02:12):
I would enjoy that more than watching that NBA game though.
Speaker 3 (02:15):
That now, Eddie, that cuts deep right there? Is that
a true statement? Because I feel like it is you
would rather clean out a storage unit then watch high
flying NBA basketball. That's what you're saying.
Speaker 4 (02:30):
Yeah, at least I'll be getting like some exercise. There'd
be something positive coming out of it.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
You have to lift a bookshelf for something, you know,
move around a bedroom set.
Speaker 4 (02:39):
And maybe I find something I didn't Well, I didn't
know what happened to that.
Speaker 3 (02:43):
Wow, my many helmets. I forgot about this.
Speaker 4 (02:46):
Great, that's something valuable.
Speaker 3 (02:49):
This was a portion of how it sounded on ESPN.
The wall not like a Game of Thrones? Are you
a Game of Thrones fan?
Speaker 5 (02:56):
Eddie with the wall?
Speaker 4 (02:57):
I'm not, but I should be. It's kind of something
that it's been. It was something I didn't get into
and then I was like, oh, I don't want to
go back.
Speaker 3 (03:06):
And you know what, yeah, just a little late.
Speaker 4 (03:08):
Yeah, one day maybe when I retire, that'll be my
big thing. I'll go back and watch Game of Thrones.
Speaker 3 (03:15):
That'll be it. Huh. Yeah, Well they had the wall
on Game of Thrones. I don't know if that's what
inspired this thing for the Clippers, but it's just a
wall of fans that are abnormally close to the action
to the floor right there. And this was a portion
of how it sounded like this is Tim Legler doing
the color for the game on ESPN.
Speaker 4 (03:37):
It's definitely a different look than anything you're going to
see in an NBA arena of what that end looks like.
And clearly road tunes are gonna be shooting into down
the second.
Speaker 6 (03:48):
Half of the night.
Speaker 3 (03:49):
Yeah, KD of course. Kevin Durant, he said it's probably
the best arena he's ever been in. Gave a shout
out to Steve Balmer right there using his own money.
How about Eddie using his own cash to build the
Intuit Dome, And yes they are zero and one.
Speaker 4 (04:05):
I believe he could buy a championship.
Speaker 3 (04:07):
That's right, but it is supposed to be majestic over there.
Probably the funniest thing from Wednesday the Pistons with six
players on the court accidentally against the Pacers and that
resulted in a technical file right there. So the Pistons
not off to a great start, Eddie, as they lost
Game one as well, and they don't have a shock
into arena.
Speaker 4 (04:28):
Considering that that, you know they're a contender this year.
Speaker 3 (04:31):
Yeah, yeah, we're striving for the number one overall pick
is what I ran exactly right, Yeah, striving toward maybe
twenty wins, but hopefully a number one overall pick is
what they're looking for right there. I was at the
Blazers game earlier, Eddie. I saw the Warriors just smack
around poor Portland. But it was good to be there
for Opening night.
Speaker 5 (04:51):
You know, it's fine.
Speaker 4 (04:51):
I hope you got a hookup.
Speaker 3 (04:53):
I did good, good, Yeah, shout out to my guy.
Chad Dowing does a local radio here in Portland, and
he looked it up. I I went there last week.
They invited me in and I did an hour on
their show. It was always great to see him and
Dwight James does a local radio two. And Chad said, yeah,
I might have some extra tickets for the Blazer game,
(05:15):
and so I texted him. I'm like, hey man, you
have those tickets and he's like, let me check. Then
he hit me up. He's like, actually, we're going to
put you in the suite. I was in a freaking
so sweet like old school NWOS Scott Hall. You know
I was in the suite.
Speaker 4 (05:29):
You don't know that, but sure, gimme you know that, Eddie.
Come on, I don't know that.
Speaker 3 (05:34):
You have to you were not into nWo. You weren't
into that era. No, no, sorry, my goodness, Eddie, gosh,
I thought you would have you liked wrestling at all?
Speaker 4 (05:45):
Eh No, not really. It was one of those things
like when you were a kid, because all your friends
were kind of into it, you just kind of had
to absorb some of the knowledge of it.
Speaker 3 (05:56):
But uh, huh.
Speaker 4 (05:57):
Yeah, I'm not saying I never watched it, but I
would not say I was really into it.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
Yeah, man, I loved the nWo era. I know other
people love their other eras of wrestling. I wasn't into
a ton of it, but yeah, I love the nWo
era that was. That was a lot of fun. No,
no era for you though, Huh. No restling, not really No, sorry, man,
doesn't break my heart. Okay, so you're off to a
(06:22):
flying grinch start over here, Eddie. I gotta be honest.
You'd rather clean out a storage unit than watch an
NBA game. No Game of Thrones, And uh didn't get
down with any pro wrestling whatsoever, you know.
Speaker 4 (06:37):
Yeah. Other than that, though, everything's great.
Speaker 3 (06:40):
Barrel of laughs. Yeah, how's everything in the in your
life going?
Speaker 5 (06:44):
Everything good?
Speaker 4 (06:46):
Yeah, everything's good. We uh we had some mice. I
talked about that on yesterday's show, and well, we were
we had a flood in my uh in my kitchen
about a year ago and they are finally getting around
to fixing it now because of dealing with insurance companies
and whatnot, and so like the workers would leave the
garage door open and the and the door from the
(07:07):
garage and the house open, and then we surmised that
that's how the mice decided, hey, let's go check out
this place. And uh, you know, we saw the evidence
of them getting into certain things and the cupboards and whatnot,
and all of the stuff in our kitchen is is out.
You know, it's not that that would prevent them from
getting to it, to be, I guess, just because it
(07:27):
was in the cupboard. But anyway, so we had to
set traps all over the house. And uh, it's it's
it's good. We're told Halloween chick or treat, it will
all be finished. So we got all we got a
dead mice we can decorate for Halloween. But it's okay,
everything's good.
Speaker 3 (07:44):
Complete the decorps right there. So how many dead mice
are we talking over the last.
Speaker 4 (07:48):
Year, over the last year, No, this is just I mean,
it's it's all been. It's because Okay, the repairs just
started a couple of weeks ago. God, so that's when
this all. We noticed the evidence of a lot of
a lot of mouse poop.
Speaker 3 (08:03):
Oh yeah, we got that going on.
Speaker 4 (08:05):
So I would say we've had about eight to ten
dead mice at this.
Speaker 3 (08:10):
Point growing family over here.
Speaker 4 (08:12):
Well, I'm told they travel in packs, so yeah.
Speaker 3 (08:15):
Wow.
Speaker 7 (08:16):
Now I talked about decorating with these mice, which makes
me think about like mouse taxidermy. Right, yeah, have you
seen those cute little figurines of stuffed mice and stuff girls?
And you can do all sorts of stuff.
Speaker 4 (08:32):
Wow. This reminds me of our friend Petros who joined
the show after this one and talking about his daughter's
hamster dying in them, considering they might stuff the stuff it.
Apparently they stuff it through the outdoor. There only only
fifteen dollars, Brian to get your pet hamster stuffed professionally.
Speaker 3 (08:53):
Wow, that's very affordable.
Speaker 4 (08:55):
Who knew, right?
Speaker 7 (08:56):
I show you these pictures though, they're pretty creative.
Speaker 3 (08:59):
Which show was PetroSA on? Ed?
Speaker 4 (09:01):
He was on the Two Pros and a Cup of
Joey's weekly appearance on that fine program?
Speaker 5 (09:05):
Cool?
Speaker 3 (09:05):
Yeah, that's great.
Speaker 4 (09:06):
That's great.
Speaker 3 (09:08):
Does he do what is it like a college football
type thing?
Speaker 4 (09:11):
You know with Petros, it's a cornucopia of interesting events.
It's it's the kind of it's then the usually I
think it's in the final hour, get like an l
a flavor, right, yeah, yea, I think it's going out
here in Los Angeles. And you know they talked about
Petros Petros, Uh, you talk a little college football, you
know there'll be an la feel to it. Though he
talked about Fernando Elnezuela, the Lebron James ridiculous thing with
(09:33):
his kid.
Speaker 3 (09:34):
Oh, I'm sure that brought a tear to your eye, Eddie.
Speaker 4 (09:36):
Oh my god. I threw up in my mouth a
little bit, to be honest with you. But really, thankfully
Petros is on board with with the reality about stupid
that is.
Speaker 3 (09:44):
But oh it disgusted him as well. Oh god, I
mean I liked Lebron's tweet. I didn't physically like it,
you know, but I saw it. Well, not because I
didn't actually see it, I just saw a screenshot of it,
but just about yeah, yeah, with Lebron and his son
Bronny being on the court at the same time NBA
History on Tuesday night, and I mean it's chill. You
(10:09):
can hear the violin music in the background. And he
tweeted Lebron did Hollywood couldn't write a better script, so
we helped them write it and brought it to them.
Speaker 5 (10:21):
History was made. Huh.
Speaker 4 (10:23):
He sure helped him, all right, he helped him for one.
Speaker 3 (10:29):
For two you gotta yeah, you got it was like
a tip shot missed that, but yeah, I got a board,
got a board, Coop.
Speaker 5 (10:37):
Did it bring a tear to your eye?
Speaker 8 (10:38):
You know you have a heart. I wouldn't say about
a tear to my eye. I thought it was cool,
But you know, I'm just one of those people like, look,
yeah he didn't earn it.
Speaker 5 (10:52):
Do I care?
Speaker 8 (10:55):
Like it was still cool? It's a cool moment, Like yeah,
I don't. I just don't know how you can deny that, but.
Speaker 4 (11:01):
I would like it's easy, really easy.
Speaker 8 (11:04):
Look, it's something that you've never seen before and might
probably never see again.
Speaker 4 (11:08):
It's great if it's legitimate, But if it's manufactured, how
I don't. I don't see how that's great. Look because
it's Ken and Ken Free Senior was great because they
both deserve to be in the major leagues and then
playing on the field at the same time. That was amazing.
And if Lebron's kid deserved to be in the NBA
because he was a really good player, that would be cool.
(11:29):
I would say that's cool. But he doesn't, and.
Speaker 3 (11:31):
It's not okay. So Eddie, I know your answer, and
I disagree with your answer.
Speaker 4 (11:37):
Let me just not smart.
Speaker 3 (11:39):
But that's okay, okay, all right, man low blow, all right,
can keep the punches up, like Mills Lane once said, Eddie.
Speaker 4 (11:46):
But hell, you're in for Ben. You know we can't
get along.
Speaker 3 (11:49):
No, it's okay, it's all right. I get it. I
know that you think he didn't deserve it, which I
agree with. So in your mind, that basically nullifies any
cool part of this story, right, Like that would be
your stance, right because I.
Speaker 5 (12:08):
Agree he didn't.
Speaker 3 (12:09):
Ronnie did not earn this, but he's there and for
this to be the first time in NBA history that
a father and son have been in the league together
at the same time, let alone on the same team
on the same court. Even though he didn't deserve it
or earn it, that moment is still cool to me.
But in your book, no, because he didn't earn it.
No coolness.
Speaker 4 (12:30):
It's the opposite of cool for me. It's like offensive
that that they would allow this to happen. You know,
you can't really play, but we're going to pay you
to be on the team because your dad has Look,
that's it'd be no but no.
Speaker 9 (12:42):
But it's not completely the truth though, because it's it'd
be one thing if the guy couldn't play basketball at all,
I mean he was, now you just put a qualifier
now at that level.
Speaker 4 (12:54):
Well, it is professional basketball. What are we talking about here?
Speaker 5 (12:57):
Yeah, but there's lots of but they allow it.
Speaker 9 (13:00):
There's lots of people that him at USC, there were
there have been lots of people over the course of
the end the history of the NBA that have made
it to the NBA that didn't belong there.
Speaker 3 (13:09):
It's true.
Speaker 5 (13:11):
What about that?
Speaker 4 (13:12):
Like who what I mean?
Speaker 5 (13:14):
Like who? Tons of Like j R.
Speaker 3 (13:16):
Smith's brother, he didn't belong there.
Speaker 2 (13:19):
J R.
Speaker 4 (13:19):
Smith's brother.
Speaker 3 (13:20):
Yeah, he was a you know, benchwarmer for a little while.
Speaker 4 (13:23):
Did they sign him just because he was his brother?
Speaker 3 (13:25):
Pretty much?
Speaker 4 (13:25):
Yeah, thats stupid too.
Speaker 3 (13:27):
Well, yeah, it's true, but coops, right, it has happened before, and.
Speaker 5 (13:31):
Adam Morrison I mean, he was in all real wrong college,
but he sucked in the NBA.
Speaker 4 (13:38):
Okay, but he deserved to get a chance to suck
in the NBA. Yeah, But I mean, so we're just
like Bron's kid wasn't even good at USC. We're so like,
we're but heart about him playing for three minutes.
Speaker 9 (13:50):
Like I don't I don't know. Yes, we heard about
him being in the league who was missing opportunity was
better than him. I doubt that. I doubt that.
Speaker 4 (14:04):
I really think that there's no guy in the G
League or D League or whatever it's called that is
it better than Lebron's kid that should be playing out there,
should be sitting on the bench.
Speaker 3 (14:13):
There's zero doubt about that. There's no doubt about that.
Speaker 5 (14:16):
I get it.
Speaker 3 (14:17):
Hey, I understand that where that shouldn't be his spot.
I totally understand that. But even with that awesome moment,
it's not awesome.
Speaker 8 (14:28):
It's standing.
Speaker 6 (14:32):
Fraud.
Speaker 5 (14:33):
I don't care. I don't care, do not care.
Speaker 3 (14:36):
I don't care because why it's Lebron James and his
kid on the court at the same time, And are
we talking about a difference maker from the G league?
Speaker 5 (14:44):
I mean, what are we talking about here.
Speaker 3 (14:46):
Okay, so he's better than Bronny, but he's gonna get
maybe two minutes a night, maybe on average.
Speaker 5 (14:52):
Exactly exactly right.
Speaker 4 (14:55):
I have fabricated moments are awesome. I don't get it.
What a low are of what is awesome in sports
these days.
Speaker 3 (15:03):
I mean, hey, I get your position.
Speaker 8 (15:05):
I'm not saying awesome, I'm saying cool. Yeah, there's definitely
a difference there.
Speaker 4 (15:10):
Yeah, say real headshaker for me. Go ahead, guys, Hey,
enjoy your cool moment.
Speaker 3 (15:15):
No problem, Eddie, anything that gets you fired up. I
mean that was an NBA strong opinion. Right, that's beautiful
right there. He got you to care about a product
that you don't care about whatsoever.
Speaker 5 (15:29):
How can that be all?
Speaker 4 (15:30):
That's an interesting spin on it. But okay, right, I
wouldn't say he got me to care. He got me
to He got you. You know what he did. He
did something that I was surprised that he got me
to actually dislike the NBA even more than I already
disliked it. So kudos to him.
Speaker 3 (15:46):
He got you to feel good, James. Yeah, the James's
got you to feel and I like this. Uh lebron
closed out his tweet hashtag James Gang. You gotta love
that as well.
Speaker 9 (15:59):
Can I make a couple of comments about stuff that
you talked about a little bit earlier in the in
the segment, but.
Speaker 3 (16:04):
You have some hard hitting NBA points of view here, Coop.
Speaker 4 (16:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (16:08):
Well, first of all, I just want to you know,
I want to get this out of the way because
many people are gonna call me and ask me and
tweet me and ask me and so so before you
do that, I'm just want to let you know that
Ben is not in tonight because he was so embarrassed
that the Clippers lost the first game of the season
and the Lakers won their first game of the season.
So he just it screwed up his mojo. He didn't
(16:29):
have a monologue, and I believe that's what happened.
Speaker 2 (16:32):
Uh.
Speaker 8 (16:33):
And then second of all, Steve Bamber is just the
biggest dork of all times and it is not endearing
at all.
Speaker 5 (16:42):
He's got passion so cool.
Speaker 9 (16:44):
So cool, it's so cool, it's great. How is that toilets?
He's such a doufish.
Speaker 3 (16:52):
If he was the Lakers guy instead, you'd be like,
this guy has passed.
Speaker 4 (16:58):
Are you saying money can't buy coolness?
Speaker 8 (17:01):
If he was the Lakers owner, I'd be happy because
we'd have deep pockets.
Speaker 5 (17:05):
But I would still be saying, how much of a
ef and Doorky is?
Speaker 4 (17:09):
No way?
Speaker 3 (17:09):
I don't buy a no chance whatsoever. You'd be like
this guy. If every team owner could have the passion,
like one tenth of the passion that Steve Balmer has,
the league would be in better hands. That's what you'd
be saying. If he was the Lakers.
Speaker 4 (17:23):
No, I wouldn't.
Speaker 3 (17:24):
You would. It'd be a complete one eighty. I see
right through you, Koop and your clippers hatred right there.
I will not stand for it, will not. We got
a lot to do this evening slash early morning. Feel
free to check you in eight seven seven ninety nine

at Eddie on Fox Moron, and maybe if you listen

my weekly NHL segment, in the final hour of the show.
I don't know, are we still doing my stick right

Speaker 3 (18:45):
There's nothing I want more than a little Puck the world.
Speaker 4 (18:48):
So that's a lie, all right, Ben, We'll prepare for
that and have Pucked the World in your final hour
of the show and now live from the tyrak dot
Com Fox Sports Radio studios. In for Ben Mallor, it is.
Speaker 3 (18:57):
Brian now thank you. Ed so off the air. Love
talking to Lorena and Coop. And I just posed a
random question to Coop because Lorena was playing some Lincoln
Park music that you just heard right there, and I
just simply asked, would you have raged at a Lincoln
Park show, you know, years ago? And Coop quote unquote
(19:20):
just went bleep, Yeah, he was into it. Would you
have gone? And ye I know you're a concert guy,
Eddie that would you have just gone? Would you have
gone and been like heavy into a Lincoln Park show?
Speaker 4 (19:33):
Hmm, that's an interesting question. I I'm not a big
as big a fan of their music, you know when
they were all together to probably buy a ticket to go,
But if someone offered a ticket, I think I would
probably go and I would have a good time. Kind
of that kind of thing.
Speaker 3 (19:53):
Fair enough. Yeah, they've got a new female singer right now.
Speaker 4 (19:57):
Oh is that right? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (19:58):
They do.
Speaker 7 (19:59):
I think she was the that they could get to
sounding like Chester.
Speaker 4 (20:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (20:03):
That's tough. That's such a signature voice, right, I don't know.
Speaker 7 (20:06):
Yeah, it's hard to duplicate.
Speaker 4 (20:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (20:08):
Well, so they were my introduction to heavy music.
Speaker 7 (20:12):
Because they're like PG thirteen exactly.
Speaker 8 (20:14):
Well, no, I mean, that's exactly why my mom would
not let me listen to a lot of music.
Speaker 3 (20:21):
You're like, Mom, I want to listen to Slayers.
Speaker 4 (20:24):
Turn into a Serial killer?
Speaker 3 (20:25):
Right, yeah?
Speaker 8 (20:26):
Yes, But Lincoln Park didn't have any cussing, and so
I was allowed to listen to it. So that was
my introduction to heavy music, and so there's always a
place in my heart for them. But I only know
the first three albums.
Speaker 4 (20:38):
You might find this interesting coup. The very studio in
which we are recording from back in the day was
rock Line, and one of the cooler people they had
in performing live was Lincoln Park.
Speaker 5 (20:49):
Oh wow, Okay, can you think I could find that
on YouTube?
Speaker 4 (20:53):
I don't know if YouTube existed back then.
Speaker 8 (20:55):
I mean, I mean you can find videos of Woodstock
on YouTube.
Speaker 4 (20:59):
Well okay, fair enough, But I mean I don't know
that they were they were, you know, filming it back then,
is what I'm saying, because that wasn't the thing like
now it would be totally a thing rock Line, rock.
Speaker 3 (21:08):
Line, Yeah, yeah, Chester, I.
Speaker 4 (21:14):
Tell you brand these young kids I'm working with.
Speaker 3 (21:16):
I know it. No appreciation for Yeah, no appreciation for
true music, Eddie, right, that sort of thing, little punks. Yeah,
but Mark Morton, you know, that was one of the
bands Coop might have wanted to get into, right, heavy
metal band. The mom might have said no. But Mark Morton,
one of the guitarists from Lamb of God, did a
(21:38):
song with Chester Bennington while he was still with us,
and pretty good song. Pretty good single with those two.
I think it's cross off might be the song, but
not bad. You might dig that one, Coop if you
check that one out. Pretty good job. The other thing
that Coop said he had other bad news from me, Eddie.
This is the thing I have to tell you. So
(22:00):
Coop has gotten me into this evil confidence pool. We've
done this for years now.
Speaker 4 (22:06):
So is this the ben Ma show one?
Speaker 3 (22:08):
No, it's a different one. Yeah. But you pick every
game against the spread, and then you put a number
of confidence points on each game.
Speaker 4 (22:17):
Oh. Interesting, a hybrid of a couple of different things.
Speaker 5 (22:20):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (22:20):
So like this NFL week Week eight, there are sixteen
total games, So the game you feel most confident on
you would put sixteen points, and then fifteen fourteen and
so on. And so I had a horrible Week seven,
and I was telling Koble like, oh dude, I just
glanced at my phone. My record socked. I threw my
phone down and I'm like, I don't even want to
(22:41):
see it. I'm terrible in this thing this year, Eddie
horrible And Coop said, oh yeah, I saw you've almost
finished in last place. I'm like, are you serious?
Speaker 5 (22:49):
It was that bad?
Speaker 3 (22:50):
He was like, yeah, not this week, another week, not
even So I almost finished in last in another week
and was dreadful this past week in this confidence bool,
I've been terrible.
Speaker 8 (23:01):
Well, so there are there are two hundred and twenty
six people total in this confidence pool, oh Man and
Brian for the season season long standings is in one
hundred and ninety first place.
Speaker 5 (23:13):
I'm not the two hundred's baby.
Speaker 3 (23:15):
I was just bracing for the two hundreds right.
Speaker 4 (23:18):
There, who gambles regularly.
Speaker 3 (23:21):
Yeah, and not a good mixture. But but that's the thing,
Eddie is there are so many different ways to gamble
with prop bets and the total like the over under
the game. There are so many different ways where I
don't bet a whole lot of sides, like do you
have the Packers minus three or the Titans or the
Texans plus three? That sort of thing, right, I've stayed
(23:44):
away from the sides, mostly doing props. I do a
lot of props and totals and in game stuff. I
do a lot of in game bettings.
Speaker 5 (23:52):
So you're such a degenerate I am.
Speaker 3 (23:55):
I've a full fledged coop. I was life betting the
Warriors and Blazers while I was at the game.
Speaker 8 (24:00):
You know, I love all that stuff too, But I
feel like I do drastically worse when I start doing
props than when I just pick the games.
Speaker 3 (24:14):
Hey, man, it's tricky no matter what. The NFL is
not an easy league to bet on in profit consistently.
But my record should not be this bad, Eddie. It's
it's dreadfully bad picking sides in that confidence pool. Or
the Sunday Morning Show, right countdown to kickoff, we have
Bill Krackenberger on the show. He's a professional andy capper. Yeah,
(24:37):
and we do the Crack Challenge. So that's you pick
five games against the crack challenge. Yeah, but you pick
this is a different version, right, you pick five games
against the spread ten minutes before the early kickoff time.
And that's when the lines are as sharp as they
(25:00):
can be, right, as nuanced as they can be. And
Jeff Schwartz and I both went over fifty percent last year,
and so Crack is like, you can't do it again,
can't do it again this season? And my record is
freaking disgusting in that thing, Eddie. I need to pick
it up because it's embarrassing. It's just not good. It
shouldn't be that bad.
Speaker 4 (25:19):
I'm embarrassed for you.
Speaker 3 (25:21):
Yeah, but hey, you know what is the key to
turning it around? This's gonna sound strange. I believe the
key is Puck the world in the final hour of
the show. Yes, that is the missing Jujui.
Speaker 4 (25:33):
I gotta get you betting on the NHL. Can I
Can I make that happen somehow? I know you don't
need much of a push probably to bet on anything.
Speaker 3 (25:41):
But absolutely, Eddie, I'm not opposed to betting on NHL.
Speaker 4 (25:45):
Action actually have There's a certain listener in Cincinnati who
will ask me questions occasionally and I will give him
advice and he's done pretty well. Actually really, oh.
Speaker 9 (25:54):
Yeah, this is something that could get me to like
start watching NHL. There you go, if there's like a
solid consistent like you know, if you're good enough to
where I can tail your picks, Eddie, and right and cash.
Speaker 5 (26:06):
I will watch those games.
Speaker 3 (26:08):
I will to Eddie if you give me some winning picks.
Speaker 4 (26:11):
Oh man, you guys are getting all excited about that.
Speaker 3 (26:13):
Just text me from time to time, like, I take
this guy to score a goal, just do it, check
it off the picks. Yeah, Loreina, you're a genius pucking picks.
You know whatever, Do something like that.
Speaker 2 (26:28):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Mellor
Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific.
Speaker 3 (26:33):
That's kind of weird with your NHL only one game
after a full slate yesterday. We can't have like three
or four games. It's kind of weird, right.
Speaker 4 (26:41):
Well, I mean they don't. They don't want a lot
of teams playing on back to back nights, and I
guess they can avoid it, but it was I was
a special NHL thing, kind of a gimmicky thing, trying
to get people to hey, look at us. Everybody's playing
on this one night. It's the only time we're gonna
do it all season long.
Speaker 3 (26:55):
And so okay, I'd say let's get a couple of games,
you know, a little double header action. It's just weird
for the league. I don't like it. I vote thumbs
down on that idea myself. But hey, what do I know.
Let's go out to the militia here eight seven seven
ninety nine on Fox is your number? Our guy hollering
James up first, let's hear from hollerin what's going on?
Speaker 5 (27:16):
James? You're on Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 4 (27:20):
He he's awake.
Speaker 3 (27:20):
What's up?
Speaker 5 (27:21):
Hollerin?
Speaker 3 (27:22):
How are they?
Speaker 4 (27:23):
That's some of his finest work right there, James, Do
you know that that's you? That that sound effect we
play is you snoring?

Better step up to the forefront and playing solid defense.
Those linebackers better move up to the Latis village. Drop
back in the coverage. But isn't TJ. Hockinson making his

come to Minnesota. Interesting.

Speaker 3 (33:46):
Well, thank you, Eddie. As promised, we go straight out
to the militia. We'll get to the NFL players new faces,
so to speak here at the top of the hour.
But hearing from the militia. I'm curious about this because
Coop Coop to some some cheap shots at a Clippers
team owner Steve Balmer, calling him a dork, you know
that sort of thing, and Pierre yeah, And I'm curious
(34:10):
what Pierre has to say. He's got a bomber point
of view to share with us. Pierre, what's up man,
You're on Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 10 (34:16):
Hey guys, how are you doing tonight.
Speaker 5 (34:18):
Good.
Speaker 6 (34:20):
Oh so yeah.
Speaker 10 (34:21):
First thing, I got in my car and I turned
on the radio and I was listening to you guys,
and I was hearing I mean, it was already tough
watching that Clippers game and seeing that loss, and going
there tonight, it was a really it was a good time.
And just hearing the bashing about Bomber, there's I mean,
there's no reason to hate. You know, we made we
(34:42):
made space for the Lakers and their you know, new home,
I mean in their old home, and we have our
own home. And I don't know, I think Steve Bomber
is the greatest owner in the NBA and just like
everyone's just like you guys said, if every owner was
that way, the league would be great. I mean, just
seeing his like it felt like a playoff game tonight,
(35:05):
seeing his like face, his reactions to the game. He like,
he really connects with the fans. You know, that's literally
how I start watching the game tonight, all nervous shaking.
We know we don't have the best team, but we
all have hope, and I feel like he gives us
I hope for Clipper fands, not many of us around, but.
Speaker 5 (35:26):
Yeah, Pierre, Pierre, Yeah, okay, buddy, Yeah, all right, we're good.
Speaker 6 (35:33):
We're good. Are you crying?
Speaker 10 (35:39):
It's just another season for us Clipper fans. But at
least we got our new stadium and Bomber is the
greatest owner, that's right.
Speaker 8 (35:47):
And if you need to go to the bathroom, there's
a toilet right around the corner.
Speaker 3 (35:51):
No, that that's just a cheap shot from a lake though. No,
it's true that that's just that's Laker hatred right there.
Speaker 6 (35:58):
I count.
Speaker 10 (35:59):
I'll count out, count every toiler in there, and let
you know I'm to there.
Speaker 3 (36:06):
I do love that drop from bomb toilets.
Speaker 5 (36:09):
That's the guy's got enthusiasm.
Speaker 3 (36:12):
I don't know if he's the greatest team owner in
the NBA, but uh, he definitely has enthusiasm. I'll put
it this way. He's great for the NBA. I mean,
there's no denying that. That's great. You want someone that
makes you fall asleep like most of the team owners do,
or are these guys that you don't even know what
their names are? No, I'd take Balmber every timely.
Speaker 10 (36:34):
Yeah, it's it's hard to get those fans. He's trying,
you know, it's hard to get those fans and they
especially when they're all on the Lakers.
Speaker 3 (36:41):
But yeah, hey, no doubt he's fighting the fight. Thank you, Pierre,
good stuff. You agree with that, there, Eddie greatest team owner, balmber.
Speaker 4 (36:50):
No, I would not. You would not agree with that. Look.
I appreciate his enthusiasm. I appreciate that he seems to
care about his team. There are certainly owners in different
sports that don't. And but he is kind of dorky.
It's hard to say he's not dorky.
Speaker 3 (37:08):
It's a blend of both apparently. Okay, all right, we
got some new NFL faces. We shall explain
