Speaker 1 (00:00):
Dingdong. The chatterbox is on.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
It's our Number two, the original Recipe podcast, and it's
all about the phenom the Heisman winner Travis Hunter.
Speaker 1 (00:11):
He is convinced that he.
Speaker 2 (00:12):
Can be a two way player one hundred percent of
the time in the NFL. The question will he get
the chance? We'll discuss that. Also, Travis Hunter says it's
super important for him to be the number one overall
pick in that NFL draft. What are the chances he
gets that as well? And what message will the New
(00:33):
Orleans New Orleans Saints be sending if they bring back
quarterback Derek Carr. It's all pixelated in your ears right
now here. It is our number two. It's the old
two for one special. Welme in the beginning of another
(00:55):
hour of the Ben Mahlor Show. We are in the
air every whares we drop in for a radio side chat,
and we are market fresh.
Speaker 1 (01:08):
Doesn't get any fresher than that. It's amazing.
Speaker 2 (01:11):
I notice you're shocked by that coast to coast border,
the border and beyond on the vast and tremendously powerful

Speaker 1 (01:44):
Com the way that tire buying show.
Speaker 3 (01:48):
Be.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
I know our man inca terror out there in Rochester,
big fan of the number ten thousand. He's traveling ten
thousand miles all over the place anyway. So our lead
this hour is from the scouting Combine in Indianapolis. Things
heating up, the Underwear Olympics, the Underwear Olympics underway, and
so much fun. A three cone drill, the forty yard dash,
(02:13):
man in their underwear running around.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
Who doesn't like that?
Speaker 2 (02:16):
So the Heisman winner has created some level of excitement.
He's filled the content kitty on the Ben Malors Show.
If you did not hear, maybe not as anticipated. Colorado's
star player now former Colorado player and a great soldier
for Fortune, Travis Hunter. Travis Hunter believes he can play
(02:38):
cornerback and wide receiver at the next level. Now stunner
of stunners. He gave this quote at the scouting combine.
He said, I want to play both. That's not my
job to figure it out. He said, I like to
play both sides of the ball. If they give me
the opportunity to play both sides of the ball, I
(02:59):
will play both sides of the ball. He later on
said when asked whether or not he could handle the
rigors of playing the amount of snaps that one would
have to play, of course, he said yeah, that he
can be a.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
Two way player one hundred percent of the time.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
So that is the money quote that Travis Hunter gave
at the combine. So let us discuss the question for
the Estean panel. Travis Hunter is convinced that we didn't
know he already was. But Travis Hunter is convinced that
he can be a two way player one hundred percent
of the time in the NFL.
Speaker 1 (03:37):
Will he get the chance?
Speaker 2 (03:40):
So I've got Inspector, Gadget, Cosplay, and SpongeBob SquarePants, and
we're gonna combine all of these things together and we
are going to make the Ben Mallard chicken fingers, which
are on the menu when you go to Kansas City, Liberty, Missouri.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
Been there.
Speaker 2 (04:01):
Had a big Mallard meet and greet last year during
football season early November. It was great Ben Mallar Chicken
figures all right. So, first of all, to answer the question,
will Travis Hunter get the chance to play both sides
of the ball in the NFL and a semi regular clip, I.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
Am nodding my head yes. I am nodding my head yes.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
And I look at his attitude as the R word
refreshing in the age of works, work smarter, not harder,
do the bare minimum. Travis Hunter is not running from
the grind. He's running towards the grind. He wants to
be part of the grind. He wants to play with perseverance.
(04:43):
He wants to play every snap and I respect that,
and he should be given the opportunity. He wants to
follow through with what he did in college, and most
NFL teams are going to reject out of an abundance
of caution these paranoid peats, paranoid about tigue, and a
fewer snabs would, in theory, reduce the injury risk. After all,
(05:05):
a Hunter is trying to become the first player to
play both sides of the ball regularly since Chuck bed
Nerrick a great name if you're a football historian, goes
back to the nineteen sixties.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
Now, opinions are mixed. Opinions are mixed.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
Brian Callahan, that's the coach of the Titans, probably not
for long the way things are going there. But Callahan
the coach in Tennessee, and they have the number one,
so he said, hey, I think this guy Hunter will
be a defensive back in the NFL. And then you've
got Andrew Barry, who's a general manager, also not for
(05:44):
long in Cleveland, although he must have compromising photos of
Brown's ownership, otherwise how do you keep his job? So
Andrew Berry has the second pick in the draft, and
he has pretty much come out and said that that
Hunter is primarily.
Speaker 1 (05:58):
A receiver, So you have pull their opposite views here.
Speaker 2 (06:03):
Nevertheless, all it takes is one team to open that door.
And if you look into the crystal ball, and we've
got one. We bought it on Timu before the Tariffs.
We see Travis Hunter as an inspector gadget type guy,
close to full throttle starting defensive back, playing roughly forty
(06:27):
to fifty percent of offensive snaps, as a slot receiver,
a lethal slot receiver.
Speaker 1 (06:33):
And it's gonna be go go gadget with this cat.
So that's the way we see it now.
Speaker 2 (06:39):
Second, Travis Hunter also says that it is super important
for him to be the number one in the NFL draft,
that pick being held by the Titans, who are on
the clock right now. So what are the chances that
Travis Hunter ends up getting that number one.
Speaker 1 (06:59):
Slot in the draft. So the chances are not great.
Speaker 2 (07:03):
It's kind of like going to Churchill Downs to watch
four horse.
Speaker 1 (07:07):
Rays and the Hunter is third. About a twenty percent chance.
Speaker 2 (07:13):
We'll see what happens because we are coming down the
stretch and as you know, horse races are one down
the stretch oftentimes. So the question becomes, can Hunter, the
Heisman winner, close the gap? Can he close the gap?
So you got what you do here is you got
to hit the campaign trail. He actually started that this week.
(07:34):
He hit the campaign trail. That was a stump speech,
is what it was. And yep, you gotta play off this.
It's really cosplay. He's dressed up as a unicorn. The
key for Travis Hunter is branding, advertising and marketing. It
is show business. The buzz is already there. The buzz
(07:57):
is already there. Now, we saw some clips from the
combine and the video does not lie. They had a
bunch of the draft players in a media get together
like a big big I can think it was one
of the hotels. Actually I didn't think this was at
the stadium, but a giant conference room. Just imagine a
(08:18):
giant conference room. And so Hunter is on one side,
everyone else's kind of spread out around the room and
they were ten to twelve deep in media dopes.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
That were trying to hear what Travis Hunter had to say.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
And most of the other players that were at the
combine were sitting around.
Speaker 1 (08:38):
And they were, you know, they were playing tittley winks.
There was nothing. They're being ignored. So that tells you
he's got the panache, Travis Hunter. He did win the Heisman.
You got to have a little rasmataz to win.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
The Heisman, and so he would be good for business,
the business side of football. You would bring a little
bit of clout. God knows, the Tennessee Titans needs some.
They don't have any.
Speaker 1 (09:01):
At this particular point. And the Cleveland Browns they don't
have much of that either.
Speaker 2 (09:06):
All right, now, final thought, we head to the Bayou
and the news out this week, and if you believe
the big cheeses there in New Orleans, they are claiming that,
despite reports to the contrary, they will be keeping the
status quo, the status quo at the quarterback position. So
(09:30):
what message will the Saints? What message will these Saints
be sending if they bring back quarterback Derek Carr.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
For another run around? Another run around there in Louisiana.
Speaker 2 (09:46):
So what they are saying, right, The message they are
saying if they do bring back Derek Carr is they
are saying, Hey, we love SpongeBob square Pants and we
want to.
Speaker 1 (09:58):
Throw the sponge in.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
We're gonna throw this monein New Orleans will treat the
twenty twenty five season as a throwaway, disposable season. Bring
back the paper bags, bring back the Aints. That's what
they will be saying now. The GM Mickey Loomis, who
has lifetime employment, said he feels the team.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
Can win with Derek Carr.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
Also comments somewhat recently, Kellen Moore, the new coach in
New Orleans, said the Saints feel fortunate to have Carr,
although Kellen Moore did not give a ringing, ringing endorsement
of Derek Carr. All right, so niceties aside, niceties put
him over here and put them over here. Nice he's
(10:42):
over there. So that aside, we live in the real world, right,
we have a caller nam real talk, and Derek Carr
is a quarterback and a calamity waiting to happen.
Speaker 1 (10:52):
Now.
Speaker 2 (10:52):
I still believe there's about a forty percent chance that
Car hits the open market and he will be playing
of the second wave of free agency, although the math
on this would indicate that if the Saints are going
to cut the cord, they're gonna have to do it
much sooner than that.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
The deadline is fast approaching.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
Cars due to get a ten million dollar roster bonus.
Do you imagine randomly getting a ten million dollar bonus
when you're not at work and just kind of hanging
out on the beach somewhere. Well, that's the NFL world.
These guys, the same players that complained about not getting
proper seats on airlines and the three meals a day
and the shoulder rubs and the toes tickled, they get
(11:37):
these massive bonuses. So Car gonna get ten million, and
that will open up an amazing, amazing factoid. Once he
receives that money, Derek Carr, he will become the answer
to an amazing who am I game question, and I'm
gonna give you the answer right now because you will
(11:58):
end up hearing this at some point, I promise you,
because once Car gets that that ten million dollars, assuming
that happens, he will then have made and crossed over
the rubicon two hundred million dollars in his career. And
if that happens, or I should say, when it happens,
Derek Carr, we are told, will become the first player
in NFL history to have earned over two hundred million
(12:21):
dollars and have zero playoff wins. The show for it,
bupkis nothing, zip bo. Yes, there have been fourteen quarterbacks
in NFL history who have earned at least two hundred
million dollars on field earnings in their career. All of
them have at least one playoff win. Derek Carr does
(12:46):
not played in one playoff game, lost to the Cincinnati
Bengals a couple of years back, and that was with
the Raiders.
Speaker 1 (12:55):
And that's it. So he is about to become the.
Speaker 2 (12:58):
Most overpaid quarterback, not that he hasn't already been overpaid,
but when you look at the body of his work,
holy man, holy crap, holy crap, how bad has he
been in games against better opponents.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
And last year it was really a two game season.
Speaker 2 (13:16):
I think Carl only played ten games, so he played
about half the games, and for two weeks New Orleans
was the toast of the NFL. They beat up Carolina
in Dallas and then they had to play the rest
of their schedule and it was turnout.
Speaker 1 (13:28):
The last the parties over.
Speaker 2 (13:31):
Yeah, it was not not very good, not very good
at all. It is the Ben Mahlor Show, which well,
you'll be the judge whether it's good or bad. You'll
decide that, and you can be part of it though
you can make it better. If you think the show sucks,

until I heard you say SpongeBob. That perked me right
up and I thoroughly enjoyed the rest. Well, thank you, Shane,
(16:57):
and de Moyes says Miles. Garrett is not open to
a contract extension with the Cleveland Browns. This is as
shocking as an awful call from Sir scratch Off. Well,
fortunately we've not heard from Sir scratch Off in a while,
so I think we're good. I think he's taken a
break from the show Milkman, Mike and Colorado, right, since
Hays once again a monologue for the ages. Travis Hunter
(17:17):
is much like blind Scott as he also likes.
Speaker 1 (17:22):
Going both ways.
Speaker 2 (17:23):
Wow, a Hunter should get the opportunity to prove himself
and then let the rest dictate his future. Also, wasn't
primed the last to play both ways? Well, Dion Sanders
did play both ways, but not full time. Chuck Bednarrick
was the last player to play full time offensive and
(17:43):
defensive side of the football.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
So it's been a long time.
Speaker 2 (17:47):
You're gonna go back to the early nineteen sixties, the
last time that happened. Now, I'd take some phone calls
here in Eenie meenie miney mo. Let's say hello to
Let's go to Bud. Bud's gone all right, screw Budd.

Speaker 2 (19:48):
I'm gonna talk about the Ravens later because I did
see a story about the Ravens where Eric DaCosta.
Speaker 1 (19:53):
You know who Eric the Costa is never heard of him?
Speaker 2 (19:56):
Okay, big Ravens fan, that's the GM of the Ravens,
all right. So so Eric DaCosta said that he's taking input
from the quarterback Lamar Jackson on which player's dad. And
I believe he was being disingenuous is the word I
will use, disingenuous.
Speaker 1 (20:13):
How's the OJ trial though, Helmet Man? Is that over
with now? Have you moved on from the OJ trial?
Speaker 7 (20:17):

on your desk. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (22:54):
I had a buddy of mine that was a sports
writer back in the day. He had all the mini
helmets and he'd set up the matchups for the week
and he'd.
Speaker 1 (23:03):
Have him on his on his desk. Yeah, matchups there,
he's ready to go.
Speaker 6 (23:06):
Why don't you do that, Ben?
Speaker 1 (23:09):
They're expensive.
Speaker 6 (23:10):
You could get all creative. You can make a little
dashboard in front of you for every show.
Speaker 2 (23:14):
Yeah, I would like to have the like the old
school helmets. I don't like the Buccaneers helmets now I
don't like. I like the old school of Bucks with
the pirate with the knife.
Speaker 6 (23:25):
And the some more vintage.
Speaker 1 (23:26):
You want the vintage one? Yeah, Like I don't need
to You're not new school for sure.
Speaker 2 (23:30):
Definitely school Houston oilers, like the Washington redskins.
Speaker 6 (23:34):
You want the old stuff.
Speaker 2 (23:35):
That's right, Yes, exactly, That's that's what I need. Let's
go back to the phone, all right. I lied when
I said I didn't want to talk to Bud, because
now I want to. I didn't want to talk to
Bud before, but now I want to talk to Bud. Hello, Bud,
Welcome Bud.
Speaker 5 (23:51):
Why do you say screw me?
Speaker 3 (23:54):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (23:54):
No, I was I was just kidding, you know, I
was just I thought you were stopped listening. So I
would never I would never say that I by someone
that called the show me what is wrong?
Speaker 1 (24:03):
What is the world coming to? My goodness? What's up, budd?
Speaker 3 (24:07):
No, my phone was just disconnectedday. Listen. You made that
remark about Derek Carr, which, yeah, he may be overpaid,
you know, just constantly getting paid, not winning any playoff games.
But the one you spoke about in particular, that Bengals game.
We all know that that was the phantom whistle game.
I mean everyone remembers the referee was going to whistle
(24:28):
when all of the players stopped and Joe Burrow through
the pass into the end zone out who was that?
Speaker 7 (24:33):
Who called the t Higgins?
Speaker 3 (24:34):
And someone caught the pass and the referee still called
it good. In the NFL, anytime they're the whistle blown,
whether it's inadvert or not, the player's supposed to be dead.
They huddled together. The referee called it good because the
call came from upstairs, from the from the big guys.
Whoever doesn't want to see the raiderst organization be successful.
They called that a touchdown. And what people don't know
(24:56):
is is that game was the twenty year anniversary to
the tuck rule. So to me as a Raider fan,
that is the phantom whistle game. So yeah, I understand
Derek Carr. He has some blimishes on his record, but
just to that game in particular, man, that is a
phantom whistle game. Now, had he had they called that
(25:17):
play dead and the Raiders were still up bleeding, then
all he had to do is drive the team down
the field to get that touchdown, which, in his perspective,
he did take the team down the field. He just
threw the ball.
Speaker 2 (25:29):
And you know what I love about you, Bud, But
that game was in twenty twenty one, and you were
still better.
Speaker 1 (25:34):
It's twenty twenty five. I love that. I love that
you were holding onto that.
Speaker 2 (25:39):
I appreciate that because I'm actually holding onto something longer
than that, the twenty seventeen World Series when the Astros
were cheating and they got away with it because the
Commissioner's got no backbone.
Speaker 1 (25:51):
So I understand what it's like to hold the grudge.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
But what about the other what Car's been playing eleven years,
so the other ten years in his career, what about
the other ten years.
Speaker 3 (26:00):
Well, I mean I just was talking about that game,
and yeah, that cheating Astros because I'm an open A's fan,
so they started cheating against the open As those Astros.
But if anything, I'm really holding on to I'm holding
on to that Tuck rule. I mean just just as
a Raider fan period.
Speaker 1 (26:15):
Well that goes even back, that goes back twenty years
the talk.
Speaker 3 (26:18):
Yeah, so I'm holding that grudge.
Speaker 7 (26:21):
Man.
Speaker 2 (26:21):
But I still remember I was listening to Greg Pop
I believe was the Raiders played by play Guy and
and on the call, it was like the Raiders won
that he thought they had won the game.
Speaker 1 (26:31):
They were going they were going.
Speaker 2 (26:33):
To the super Bowl and all, I mean, he was convinced,
but it didn't work out.
Speaker 3 (26:39):
It's still seems to this day.
Speaker 5 (26:40):
Man, it's still see Budd.
Speaker 1 (26:42):
All right, all right, there's the great Bud. You know,
I was just kidding, Bud. You know what I said.
I didn't want to talk.
Speaker 2 (26:48):
To you, sure, No, No, I was just that was
just you know, that was satire. That was no, that
was satire. Yeah, speaking of satire, the power of satire.
So there there's an account on x called NBA Sentel,
which is a ripoff of a real account, which is
(27:08):
NBA Central, which is like a breaking NBA news account,
and a lot of the players follow it. But NBA Centel,
NBA Sentel does parody and they do it really well.
Like a lot of people get fooled. A lot of
people fall for this parody account, the satire account. So
I bring this up because on I guess one them Wednesday,
(27:32):
the account was shut down. The fake news account was
shut down. So just that who cares, you know, it's
a satire account. Nobody's gonna miss it. A bunch of
NBA teams and NBA players sent condolences because the account
was shut down. They were like, this became a thing, right,
(27:54):
it was one of the great parody accounts of our time. Well,
the account came back. Now, Kevin dur supposedly coined the
phrase you got sentel, which means you got punked by
a fake account on social media. But the Houston Rockets,
the Miami Heat, the Orlando Magic, the Pistons, all the
admins on those accounts, they all sent comments in very
(28:17):
prominent media. People sent comments ins you know, rest in
peace Sentel and all that.
Speaker 1 (28:22):
Well, the account came back. Yeah, and it's it's really funny.
Speaker 2 (28:28):
And I actually I have some friends of mine that
I have seen get caught with the fake account. Like
the other day there was a Luca Donzig story that
was on the Sentel account saying that the Mavericks had
banned fans from wearing the Luca Donzig jersey to games,
(28:49):
and so it was it.
Speaker 1 (28:50):
Was fake story. It wasn't real.
Speaker 2 (28:52):
But people I know that have worked in the media
business for a long time got hornswaggle bamboozled by that
fake account. Any power, Yeah, the power of satire, the
power of parody.
Speaker 6 (29:04):
Was it a big name?
Speaker 1 (29:05):
Ben? Uh, that's a pretty big name. Oh okay, why
I mean, there's I'm not saying it on the air.
I know that, Coop. I'll tell you text it. Well,
you'll know you're very familiar with the person's work, very familiar.
Speaker 2 (29:24):
Anyway, let's go back to the calls and why why
not Aenie meanie mine. Uh, Well, they have a lot
of people to check that, actually, but.
Speaker 1 (29:36):
I guess sometimes stuff slips through the cracks.
Speaker 2 (29:38):
Angry Bill is in Florida, will see what he's angry
about right now, Hello Angry Bill.
Speaker 7 (29:46):
Good morning to everybody. Hi, this thing is you know,
I don't can't spend the NBA anymore. But this trade
going over there, what's the named Luco Donnat or some
other going over to uh l A and Lebron James
teaming up just enough time I had. I got a
(30:08):
feeling they're gonna make something real special and they're gonna
win the NBA Championship. These two are gonna team up.
They're gonna get together and play together and pass together
and do all this terrific stuff and they're gonna be
the NBA champs, right, coop, right, Okay, They're gonna have
(30:30):
enough time to do it, and it's just it's gonna
be like a little bit of magic and they're gonna
fight and fight and fight, and they're gonna become the
NBA champs. That's my little self prediction.
Speaker 1 (30:40):
So again, if you.
Speaker 2 (30:41):
If you were listening hoping you'd get the prediction of
a guy that hasn't watched a basketball game in probably
twenty years.
Speaker 1 (30:48):
Uh, you just got it.
Speaker 2 (30:49):
That's the content you wanted. That's that's what you got.
Angry Bill, given the goods right.
Speaker 7 (30:54):
There, I happen to be a genius. Then you haven't
figured it out yet.
Speaker 1 (30:58):
I'm bringing Yes, we're still waiting for you to show that.
We have not had you show that to us.

what he says as the gospel.
Speaker 7 (31:42):
I'm just saying, that's not nice. Ben. I could I'm
hurting pretty good, you know, And I could use one

I wonder if you could look for that on craigslist.
Speaker 7 (32:19):
I want somebody to do it for love. I love money.
Speaker 1 (32:23):
Well, how about you find a nice blind woman. She'd
probably help you out, you know.
Speaker 7 (32:28):
Oh yeah, I can get what's his name? Blind Scott's mother.
A creepy little thing. I'll tell that, creepy little I'm.
Speaker 1 (32:36):
Sure it is all right? You got your shot in?

You want another shots? You would like to take anything else?

All right, thank you? All right, go away, there's angry.
But anyone want to give him a sponge bath? That think?
Speaker 3 (33:00):
We know love?
Speaker 1 (33:01):
A spongebath with love, with love? If you wear a
shirt that says love, does that count as love? Or
does it have to be actual love?
Speaker 4 (33:11):

active streak of consecutive games played in baseball.
Speaker 1 (36:08):
With six hundred and twenty. It is also the twentieth
longest streak in baseball history. That seems kind of cool.
Speaker 2 (36:16):
I've been playing baseball since the eighteen seventies or so.
Speaker 1 (36:21):
So that is the question. What is the answer? And
let's see, does anyone know.
Speaker 2 (36:29):
Marmaduke from Manuel and Guardina Angry Bill from Mallord Property
and that is exactly what angry Bill looks like. I
don't know how you did it. Denny Doyle from BP
unless it's not page down. Mary Lou Henner from I
forty Ian J. D. Martinez guessed by Alfie Allen O Piner.
Speaker 1 (36:51):
They say we suck, so let's go out and suck together.
Speaker 2 (36:54):
Moose Hass one of the great names found by mister
nice guy old pitcher. Moose Hass solid baseball cartoon, no
no hat on his baseball ker. Charlie Blackman from EKE
and that's not racist from EKE and Roseville, Minnesota. Angela
Baby who is thirty six today. I don't know who
is that angel? Do you know who angela Baby is?
Speaker 3 (37:14):
No?
Speaker 1 (37:15):
I have no idea that late Night drug tester Lance Parrish.
I remember that name.
Speaker 2 (37:19):
That's an old baseball of the first baseball game I
ever covered. Lance Parrish was playing for the other team,
Robin Minnesota lead a lap guest by Brendan John Carlos
Stanton from Jeremy and Minnesota. Angry Bill's Bass Sponge guests
by courtesy Flusher.
Speaker 1 (37:35):
All right, what say you, Loraine's That bass punch thing
just got me. I was gonna go with Bobby Mercer Ben, Wow, Okay,
one of my favorites from my childhood, very active. You're
a liar. It's Matt Olson or the Atlanta b Matt
Olsen six. Here we go, Here we go here? How
(37:56):
about that? This is one gets krill? Here we go,
Here we go.
Speaker 6 (38:05):
It was reported Wednesday that top prospect at Duel Carter
has a stress reaction on his right foot and may
need surgery.
Speaker 1 (38:11):
Now.
Speaker 6 (38:11):
While a surgery decision looms, his agent Jew Rosenhouse says,
either way, worst case scenario, we don't expect this to
impact where he is drafted. Ben, do you think it
will impact his draft position?
Speaker 1 (38:21):
All right?
Speaker 2 (38:21):
So, first of all, obviously, what do you expect, through
Rosenhouse to say, right, he's being paid to represent the player.
Speaker 1 (38:27):
He's going to stand up for the player.
Speaker 2 (38:29):
But I actually agree with rosenhause we have seen players
who have had injuries that still get drafted, and this
is one of those things, if you you know what
it is. And I guess they said he doesn't need
surgery now, but he still might down the line.
Speaker 1 (38:40):
But I've been.
Speaker 2 (38:42):
Reading these dopey draft previous He's by far the top player,
at least based on the scouting guys for the draft,
so I think he's still fine.
Speaker 1 (38:50):
If you draft defense, that's the guy you take next.
So good old.
Speaker 6 (38:54):
Brian Winhors made a prediction on Wednesday, saying that the
Suns will trade Kevin Durant this offseason and that Durant
already knows it.
Speaker 1 (39:01):
Ben.
Speaker 6 (39:01):
Do you concur well?
Speaker 2 (39:02):
Brian Windhorse said it, Yeah, Well, I agree with it
because Durance pretty much said that that's not breaking news.
Durant said he turned down Golden State's trade because he
wants to leave Phoenix on his terms. So that's to me,
that's a dead giveaway that he is planning on relocating,
but he wants to do it in the offseason, not
during the season.
Speaker 1 (39:21):
So I believe that is accurate.
Speaker 6 (39:22):
Next Duke freshman Cooper Flagg has been one of the
best players in college basketball this season, and it's caught
the attention of a Hall of Fame coach, Jim boh Beheim.
Beheim called him almost birdlike, Yeah, are you on board
with that comparison?
Speaker 7 (39:35):
Ben?
Speaker 2 (39:36):
Now, does this mean like an actual bird, like big bird,
or like a penguin, which I guess is a bird
but doesn't really fly, or you like a pigeon.
Speaker 1 (39:46):
He's obviously talking about Larry Bird. I'm not there yet.
Speaker 2 (39:49):
I'm not He's a good college player. I gotta see more.
I've seen him play a few times at Duke this year.
Speaker 1 (39:55):
He's solid. I'm not convinced. How do we do you
pass this edition? That is a win? Another win?
Speaker 2 (40:00):
Larader all time wins, King Loraader right here, this guy
right here.
Speaker 1 (40:06):
Thank you,
