Hello and welcome.

It's our number four, hour number four of the show.

And Bill Belichick in the cross airs this hour.

Belichick has always been a no-nonsense, no-excuse guy.

It appears he is changing his ways.

Belichick, is he becoming an excuse-makers?

The Patriots are playing miserable football, just wretched football.

They're wicked bad.

And wait till you hear what Bill Belichick said on talk radio.

We will give you the audio and we will react to it.

That and more here in our number four.

Singing a different tune.

And that is an understatement.

Welcome in the beginning of another hour.

It's the Ben Mallor show.

We are in the air everywhere.

Coast to coast, border to border, and beyond.

As we sermonize the now early morning hours on the vast Fox Sports Radio Network emanating live from inside the magic radio box,

also known as the Geico FSR Studios.

I hope you're doing well.
