But here in our number one is the $100 million guaranteed portion of the contract for defense of back Trent Mcdoffy, a smart business move

3:02or reckless spending by the Rams. They just traded for Mcdoffy last week. Also, does Trent Mcdoffy transform the Rams defense or does he just patch up one hole that they had on that side of the ball? Also, why would the tabloids, led by TMZ, report on Donna Kelsey, the mom of Travis Kelsey getting new windows indoors? This actually became a story. A story that Travis Kelsey and Jason Kelsey's mom got new windows indoors. Why will investigate? We'll get to that right now. Here it is. Our number one. Well, we have our new McMillian's winner and then some welcome in the beginning of another week of the Bay Mallor Show. We are in the air everywhere eating up the clock as we chirp with the parrots, coast to coast, border to border and beyond on the vast end.

4:10Spectacularly powerful. Microphones of FSR and my dating life. Big A, not that big A, the A block of the show as we are just beginning here from the world famous and luxurious Fox Sports Radio studios as approved by the ostrich aunt who's in the injury tent right now and Viva Las Vicki and possibly even Danny in Nashville who's now a daddy. He's all grown up now. This hour made possible by our friends at Tyraq for over 40 years Tyraq has been helping customers like Mallor prop guy out the alien opiner and Ferb dog in the winter wonderland of Fullerton find the right tires for how what and where they drive ship fast and free back by free road hazard protection with convenient installation options like mobile tire installation Tyraq.com So we're a tire buying show be in we survived another weekend and here we are the last couple of days this week.

5:20College basketball everyone that does this for a living in sports talk radio will suddenly become a college basketball expert and will all be Jonesed up because coming up this Sunday is selection Sunday, which means and I don't know I haven't talked to management. I'm speaking out of school here. There'll be some kind of bracket thing of a jig or what you might call it or something like that I would imagine been here a long time we do on every year. So that'll be coming up next week selection Sunday is this Sunday. We're not talking about that. No, no, no. It's our lead this hour from La La land where the L. A. R. I.M.s have paid out a bunch of money here. A lot of money. I don't just saw this or not. A couple days after they got all pro defensive back Trent McDuffy from Kansas City. They have given him a record breaking contract now we had heard through the grapevine. This is going to happen but now we know money money money just how much money so if you didn't see this I'm sure it's very similar to your contract.

6:21Four years 124 million that includes 100 million guaranteed which is bigger than most of the lotteries that are going on right now in individual states. 100 million guaranteed the deal will make McDuffy Trent McDuffy the highest paid defensive back in NFL history holy prime time. Deon yeah well it's all about when you're when you're born that's a big part of the money game and professional sports right. Revis Island all those guys they got paid a lot of money but McDuffy now sets the new standard it comes just days after the Rams trade a traded a bag full to the chiefs of package of picks including the 29 pick in the draft all you draft nerds get all horny for that enjoy that. And so it's good jumping off point let us discuss the question is the 100 million guaranteed given to defense back Trent McDuffy a smart business move or reckless spending by the Rams.

7:27So my thoughts on this I've got British boy man Arby's drive through and cheddar cheese ruffles and we'll put all these together we are going to build a better mouse trap. You like the thinking there's no way to build a better mouth track master but we're going to do we're going to build a better mouth trap. So a let's address the Commodo dragon in the room which would be the sticker shock crowd hyperventilating calm down take deep rest everything's going to be okay. Oh my god the game is the Rams are doing it. They're running the NFL. Oh wait I'm sorry those are the people that upset with the Dodgers yeah the Rams guaranteeing 100 million for Trent McDuffy. People always not the top quarterback quarterback what are you doing now this is basic accounting. And it's basic accounting here so you think of this like an escrow account and when when the Rams made the move to get McDuffy from the chiefs.

8:27The way that they facilitated the trade was they they knew the bill was coming do they were they had to pay the guy. And so they knew they were going to have to pay the money wasn't a surprise they were going to pay them a lot whether it was 30 million a year 31 million which it turned out to be it was a lot it was pre baked into the recipe. So that's already pre baked in there there's nothing you can do they budgeted it like it's a family setting aside cash for property taxes. And let's not pretend the Rams are rummaging through couch cushions stadium. There's so far all you people look no one's going to ram games it's all fans of the other theme. Okay well the Rams are making money either way and stand cranky the largest landowner outside of the federal government in America worth 22 billion. And so the Rams have a license to print cash between so five stadium and L.A. and all the TV in general that they're getting like everyone else but on top of it all that extra revenue plus the NFL salary cap.

9:28I'd like you to step in and I want you to sign up for my webinar. Mathers webinar on the salary cap the salary cap in the NFL is like a British boy band. It's one direction it goes up one direction and here's the kicker. I tremicked off he isn't some stat sheet mirage piling up empty calories. It's not like he was playing for the cowboys or the Cleveland Browns. He's battle tested not one but two Super Bowl appearances with Kansas City bright lights big stage all that and he got it done. And he didn't shrink and he didn't run away and hide and he showed up with brass knuckles. So he has proven unlike the twenty twenty ninth pick in the draft will end up being is not proven is not guaranteed to succeed. Well nothing is totally guaranteed but you'd rather have someone that's actually done it who's had a couple of years under their belt to pay that particular player.

10:29Now page two. So keeping the smooth sound going here question. Does Trent McDuffy transform the Rams defense or does he just patch one hole is this just one little hole. So clearly if you know anything about the economics I think you do you're not a moron that it's not just nice player money. That is what we call NFZ money no flies on no flies on thirty one million a year if my math is correct means that quarterbacks should have to contact the FAA to get clearance to throw in the direction of Trent McDuffy. If you're paying that kind of cash this guy can't just patch a little pot hole can't be that right. It's got a repay of the whole highway and stripe it and all of that that the Rams basically drove to Kansas City.

11:31And they treated arrowhead stadium like it was an Arby's drive through and they said yeah I we need some help in our defense can I'll take one all pro defensive back combo meal. Because your advertising you have the meats so we need some meat in our secondary and they needed it they got it their secondary last year was softer than those delicious bird ends in Kansas City. Not quite as good not close to being as good as the bedmaller chicken fingers at the landing in Liberty Missouri now is this guaranteed to work. No of course not this is not the windmill and the spinning obstacles at the miniature golf course the putt putt golf course this is not that we've seen this movie before. Oh man it's been almost ten years now but I remember when the Rams went shopping in Kansas City and this was eight years ago they got Marcus Peters what the time was considered one of the top defensive backs in the NFL.

12:34The problem was Peter sucked at a time you cannot suck that was the problem and it was worth the risk it didn't work out then McDuffie's legit he's a top ten defensive back great tackler supposedly you got to be the eraser twenty twenty six the Rams. We'll play in the division assuming the sea ox don't lose Jackson Smith and Jigba he'll be there Marvin Harrison Jr. who's hitting miss and then outside the vision ran play the cowboys and CD lamb and at this point the Eagles have AJ Brown will see. But those guys have to be vaporized by the aforementioned Trent McDuffie and you're supposed to build the MDS the missile defense system the plan is to build the missile defense system if balls are still flying over that secondary. Then the Rams they mismanaged their money and they they did not get the lock down defense back and they just paid a hundred million for a fancy bandaid there is the multiverse we do believe in the multiverse so it is conceivable that that outcome happens although we would bet on him being fine at least for a couple years it's four year before your contractor yeah I think that's right so that's a lot that's a lot of cash all right now last word here.

13:55To tabloid village to tabloid village we go so TMZ over the weekend breathlessly reported and I I this was so outrageous that I had to bring this up I could not wait to talk about this. So I don't know if you follow teams are not but TMZ over the weekend report I never seen report like this before my life I thought my god this is the most amazing thing I've ever seen so the people over TMZ reported breaking news apparently Donna Kelsey Donna Kelsey and I it's with a heavy heart that I say this I'm a little embarrassed to bring this up but I think we can all send our thoughts and prayers to Donna Kelsey she's replacing nine windows and six doors. At her home in Orlando let me repeat that that's TMZ big news over the weekend Donna Kelsey is replacing nine windows and six doors at her home in Orlando yeah I know that's the store it's a shocker windows indoors TMZ of course getting roasted for this being called out for reaching a new low and all that's the question.

15:08Why I know this is not for the faint of heart but why would TMZ report on Donna Kelsey getting new windows and doors why would this be a report because we are living inside the AIC what is the AIC the algorithm industrial complex that's why this is content farming with a capital F for farming these bot farms. From Guangzhou China or no joke right you toss the word Kelsey into that digital ocean like chum in shark infested water and the engagement fish start thrashing. Now we here of course in Fox Sports Radio part of the I heart family and guaranteed human that's the new thing right guaranteed human and all that well these are real real humans who scroll right past that but the bots don't right the bots the dummy accounts the engagement farms in Maldova in the matrix they all are they gobble gobble gobble it's like if you've gone to the beach during the summer you drop a cheddar cheese ruffles on the beach and there's a

16:1617 pigeons that come over there and the and the pelicans and everything they're attacking that birds right there on the beach they want to get that cheddar cheese ruffles they wanted so this is the afterglow of Taylor Swift it's the afterglow of Taylor Swift the Kelsey name is like a magic spell online and even the most mundane thing a home depot receipt a home depot receipt golden golden you type it and both your engagement goes through the traffic appears abracadabra now if you listen to the fifth hour podcast over the weekend we had a interesting study on the mail bag we talked about the fact there was a list actually sent this to me I think was on was it switch or something one of the one of the streaming so I forget which one one of the social networks the person that runs it was encouraging people to get dummy views to get the numbers up saying that even good content is not enough which is what I've been preaching from the bully pulpit for some time it's a lot of manipulation is not a

17:29people taking the cleaners but you've got to play the game if you're in that world play the hits mom I have to play the hits is one of our old bosses used to say and today it's Donna Kelsey installing windows tomorrow it's Donna Kelsey getting a manny and a petty next week we understand Donna Kelsey will buy a new toaster will it be a red toaster or will it be a green toaster developing how developing hot dot dot dot and listen here's what because the robots the robots quick and he click and the advertisers pay all right they pay whether they're getting horn swaggle bamboozle led astray by the machine they haven't figured it out yet at some point there will be the great awakening at some point there will be the great awakening that has not happened yet and this is a great example even TMZ is like wait a minute if we just merely say hey this is the mama of Travis Kelsey and Jason Kelsey we can get the box to click on that

18:29and then we can make money on that so everyone else will point fingers and go ha ha and goof on you but it doesn't matter it doesn't matter you come out of head art it is the Ben madder show you would like to be part now you do not have to this is an interactive show we have plenty of things to talk about for the whole entire night here however we are told that since we have no budget to add you know taped interviews like to our competitions all recorded in the can we don't do that here so if you want to be part you can add a little flavor little spice on top there a couple sprinkles 877 99 on Fox is the magic number that's right 877 9966369 now 99% we'll never ever call the show 99% we'll never call it now if you're afraid to call the show I get it you can also hide behind a fake avatar and name on X and send us a message that's at Ben Mallor M-A-L-L-E-R that's at Ben Mallor if you don't know how to spell Ben you

Tech Queen what a bell no talking and a couple loop at a Bronco fan or call in eight seven seven ninety nine on fox all right Ryan in San Diego says i'm not a fan he's a ramp saying i'm not fan of the trade from McDuffie just shows panic and desperation we're going to overpay him yes we need quarterbacks but this just smells of desperation gave up too many pick oh come on right they really gave up a fifth round pick they already have a first-round pick you don't need two first-round pick they had one first-round pick from Atlanta they gave up a fifth round pick and then some other lower picks who cares about those that's uh you want to keep those f them picks f them picks that's what i say f them picks now scrooge in northern california writes in and says uh it was uh twitch the twitch CEO yeah i thought that was right i was you know somebody's podcasting radio shows i didn't even know what to what on he said the twitch CEO desperate for higher views and content to the viewership numbers being

26:00at an all-time low there you go uh i guess a high senet left twitch they'd have falling out so they but it's all of them it's every social media platform it's all in my opinion manipulation and it's just wild how they've been able to get away with it and make a lot of money doing it and you'd think the people that are uh in that world who are advertising would realize that they're getting hornswaggle but they have they have not JC writes in says 10 out of 10 on the mall or monologue my son works at wall greens in the Kansas City area and Donna Kelsey came in a few weeks ago she purchased three different types of antifungals two creams and one powder i have a feeling she and her husband have she or her husband have athletes foot all right cool send that out on the this is according to a source close to the bend mowler show on fox sports radio Donna Kelsey likely has athletics foot athletes foot athletes foot big story there

27:04let's get the scoop on apple larena don't you think that would be worthy of TMZ or the daily male of page six yeah they might as well give her her own feature like mom a Kelsey's cookies every week let us know what she's baking well of course well how do you know she's baking maybe she's so rich now she doesn't need to bake anything she just has everything delivered to her that's possible she made a line of cookies she would make more than the girl scouts no but that I mean she doesn't have a thousand how many how many girl scouts are there in the United States every I can't go to a freaking store and I see these little girls and they want me to pay for the girl scout cookies and I don't want to get fat again so I'm not paying them and I try to avoid them and then they they know I'm walking away and then they try to do the sales pitch and it's really annoying it really bothers me but I can't be buying the cookies there are 2.5 million members in the girl scouts so Donna Kelsey is popular she is could not get 2.5 million little girls to stand outside grocery stores and and do you see in Philadelphia there were people upset because the girls guy this is

28:08brilliant there were selling cookies outside of a dispensary in the greater Philadelphia area and I can't think of a those are smart girls I mean I'm sure their parents taught them taught bottom there but who else is gonna buy more cookies then you walk out of a weed shop and you're gonna buy cookies come on that that's great great reporting by JC just for the record we have no idea to verify whether JC's telling the truth or not but I want to believe that there is some kind of fungus on the feet of Donna Kelsey and her husband and more on that I'm sure later keep us updated JC if she goes back in there to buy something now Yafimi in Chicago says as a connoisseur of egg ball McDuffie is one of the best cornerbacks in football Casey will get letting him go Yafimi also says do I get a refund if it is not a human on FSR oh you'd have to check with the legal department he says also 99% of this app on X is bots talking to bots do the bots pay

29:14for their own check marks I wonder how that works well you can study it if you want there's there's some stuff online about how the bot community works there's like three layers of bots there's your basic bot which is kind of like your basic basic biatch but your basic bot which is easy to tell there's a more advanced bot and then there's the new AI bot which acts human which is very difficult to tell but it is a bot but what I like is some of these people are so sloppy you'll go read some comments there'll be some story that'll pop up normally this is more political than any but it'll pop up and you'll see two or three of the exact same comment word for word from the bots because whoever's running the bot army the convoy of bots they did not set the thing right the the doohickey right and so they're all sending out the same messages verbatim which is a dead get away dead get away my my my my my now no stradinus who's part of the Seattle

30:16Seahawks PR department says this McDuffie deal will blow up in the ram's face mutiny will soon ensue and I have my popcorn ready so so he says uh hey and I have a favor can you help us out on that uh no stradinus will the last person leaving Seattle turn out the lights the parties over the legal tampering period beginning on this monday here and there are reports in the overnight these Seattle Seahawks are on the brink of losing their big pickup at the trade deadline sheed Shaheed gone so I just did say and supposedly gonna head off to lost Vegas go to the raiders there's some chatter overnight he's gonna get a contract averaging 18 million dollars a year sweet baby Jesus 18 million dollars a year for Shaheed Shaheed he's out also Kenneth Walker he's gone uh nobody wants to plan Seattle it would appear that they won the little super bowl

31:19and they realize what what a fluke it was that they got those two points handed them in week 16 that give them home feel otherwise it would have lost and so they realize that can't happen again and they're they're out of there yeah uh late-night drug testers says Rams can spend their money on talent as they see fit just like fox sports radio should pay you for dominating the overnight shift of clearly yeah absolutely i'm sure they're gonna get right on that uh late-night drug tester did we mention gunner gunners excited about the march madness bracket it's the only person I've seen that's tremendously excited about that uh Terry in england writes in sick mcduffy how interesting any report card scores been it's not like you engage in trades in a positive manner uh well Terry I know you're a big fan of the show so you were listening when the trade actually went down last week and we had the full malar report card breaking that trade down framed by frames of brooder film style yeah exactly man alive all right see mr gations as I think I have found

32:26weed man's calling ambassador weed man america's liaison to dolphin world all right uh what else we have to pay i don't know read that on the air see shane into moan says been your take on gino being the worst quarterback in rater history sounds a lot like your take on derrick car so who is literally the worst quarterback it was car a few years ago i think it's still car well no based on small sample sizes gino smith and gino smith got paid 58 million dollars to win two games how does he get worse than that now derrick car haunted the raiders for a number of years because he sucked and he stayed there you know reach the peter principle is what he did uh exactly unbelievable all right uh see what else do we have uh mic writes and says but had been donna and mr kelsi have been divorced for 10 years however jason kelsi paying for servicemen and women who were killed from maran missile attack that's uh for my well mic uh

33:29i clearly you read the tabloids more than me if you're familiar with the donna and donna kelsi divorce and all that i pay attention to that you do though it says more about you than me i would say yes i would be proud of that kind of hide my head if i were you a little bit it's embarrassing nature voices i refuse to believe that all the babes on x that want me to take them are bots oh yeah yeah if you send a lot of messages working overnight you will have every porn bot on x i think you're the hottest person in the world and they all want to send you messages and they are they're really really excited really really excited to send you messages yeah because that that's like real world realities what that is that's how that that's how that works right no that's not exactly how that works okay fair enough i got you all right let's go to the phones and let's say hello we'll go to the undertaker in canza city hello undertaker welcome

34:32uh thanks for taking my call man uh lifelong cheese fan love chimping down peaks uh i believe thirty million dollars a year like outside lockdown corner money uh he's an excellent flop corner but look at look at Dallas game last year picking cd lamb and he's a matchup he gets him he got towards i wish he didn't have to leave but yeah look up stats i'm gonna hang up and uh listen to you thank you all right undertaker yeah i'm gonna use some psycho babel and it sounded to me like with that was from my my my guy the undertakers man that loves the the chiefs he's going through the five stages of grief if you will right the uh you you have the denial you had the anger the bargaining this is

35:33the bargaining part believe that's the bargaining part you're like well remember the came against the cowboys he got torched there you go not worth the money not worth the money there'll be some depression and then undertaker it will finally be acceptance so you have to go through the five stages that the chiefs could have paid mcduffy they didn't want to pay mcduffy and so now mcduffy is playing for the ramps and you got it first time picking your drafted most likely defensive back and then that person will likely torture you and uh subject you to uh mediocre football it's very difficult to actually get these draft picks right when you actually get them right you would like to keep them that's just me what do i know that i am not mr draft guy i'm not i have been burned too many times by the jokers in the draft that have come in there and played like hobgoblins and i am i'm good i don't need my team to draft another goblin i i i'm okay i'm

36:41perfectly fine trading the picks the rams have done what you all said couldn't be done they've pretty much gotten rid of ten years of draft picks and have been consistently a contender they have reached the final four a few times they've reached the super bowl a couple of times and you slime balls like no stradiness said that can't happen that that what you you must value the picks you must hold on to the draft picks the almighty all powerful draft picks oh my god those draft picks yeah well they haven't done that and sure enough they are they're doing okay now i mentioned the Kelsey name it ends up popping up and you get a lot of engagement in the matrix and people love engagement it's popular it's a popular name there's some stories tonight in the overnight that Travis Kelsey will be talking to multiple teams not named not named the chiefs the legal tampering period begins of course these conversations have already taken place a breathless reporting that

37:46Travis Kelsey could quit Kansas City and continue playing for a different team and yeah i'll believe it when it happens i'll believe it when it happens i don't think there's a chance that's gonna have that's all engage but i would be shocked if you left not that he's on the the downside because last couple years have not been good for Travis Kelsey in terms of production his performance his impact has gone down tremendously i just don't fight we have a fun fact you ready for the fun fact we got a fun fact here we go fun fact so fun fact the highest paid defense back in the NFL on a average annual value which is what really is most important for many so tremiguffy past sauce gardener whose number two at 30.1 million with the Indianapolis Colts Derek Stingley of the Texans is number three on the bigboard and JC Horn at number four and then after that you got

38:48the old-timers i say old-timers not old but in football world they're old jail and ramsey who's still bouncing around with the Pittsburgh Steelers and Patrick Sartane is not old either with the Broncos so those are the other guys to round it out but McDuffie now passing gardener and Stingley on the big board money money money money big board big giant board and hoe how wonderful that big board is just go back to the phones will say hello to Paul in Ottawa hello Paul welcome Paul hey man always good to talk with you i was listening to Max Crosby's address to the Raiders fans about two hours ago and he felt like he had let them down and so on but it made me think of what even what your take last week on the Irish goodbye and the Italian goodbye I'd never heard of either one but I guess the Irish is the short and the Italian is the long and

39:48this was the Italian goodbye he I think he was sincere I don't doubt his sincerity but he went on on on and just never ended and I think there's something to be said for the Irish goodbye where you leave people wanting more you don't just keep stuffing them and was it I think it was it 13 minutes Paul I didn't why I'm not sure but it it reminded me too of of kind of an unworked unfortunate development in our culture which predates social media it goes back to the 70s and 80s Christopher Lash wrote a book about it called the culture of narcissism and he talked about how there was a non-slot of celebrity came in to play whereas he used to be more individuals like I'll give you an example at the end of a Rob Reiner film called a sure thing in the mid 80s the young man and the young woman kiss by themselves on top of a

40:50dorm on the roof and fast forward a little bit later and there's a movie with Meg Ryan and Andy Garcia and they're kissing at the end of the movie and then the camera pans out and there's all these people cheering and clapping for them it's it's a kind of almost a celebrity moment instead of an intimate moment and I think it's I just say an unfortunate development I haven't been immune from it myself in life you know the desire for attention but I think it's part of the human condition right and like even I'm an introvert but I occasionally like to get attention I mean we all do it's part of being human you want people it's a communal world communal right we have to be somewhat communal we have to be around other people takes a village to raise people I mean that's just the way we're wired so we that's our default position when we enter end of the world but Paul thank you buddy they good to hear from you the great Paul one of my favorites Paul and Ottawa we love when he calls in time now for the who am I game you can answer this on x at band maler here's the
