  Speaker 1: way to lose a sponsor. You know what I mean? No,
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: I'm not talking about organizing. I'm just talking about knowing
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: the lay of the land, knowing what to do. Oh,
• 3:03

  Speaker 1: a question bone your extensive knowledge of casinos have you
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: ever stepped foot in a casino i've stepped back foot
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: at harrah's cherokee casino yes i've been there before oh
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: you have been yes i spent a weekend there on
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: october of 2009 That's a long time ago. I spent
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: my birthday weekend there. Yes, I've been there before. Any
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: further questions, sir? They have done a ton to it
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: since then, though, right? It's a really cool thing. It's
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: like this small town, but then there's this grand casino
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: in the middle of the town. It's pretty cool. Look
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: at you, Bone. Look at you. Not only have you
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: been to a casino, you've been to Harris specifically. Also,
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: I'm from Connecticut. I've been to casinos there before. They
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: have two massive casinos in Connecticut. My Uncle Augie, famous
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: in those casinos, not allowed in one of them anymore
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: before his death. So, no, I am your guide for
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: this casino trip there. Great people watching, too, by the way,
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: of the old people on the slot machines.
• 4:08
  Speaker 4: Oh, God.
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: That's what you're looking at, the old people? All right, man. Well,
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: I'm looking forward to it, but we've got to— I
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: can't believe you questioned my casino background. I just didn't.
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: It just occurred to me, like, Bone hadn't been to Vegas,
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: hadn't been to— I'm thinking of places I've been to, casinos, Bahamas.
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: I'm like, has Bone been to a casino? This is
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: his home casino right here. I live 20 minutes from
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: Foxwoods in Connecticut. I was there all the time as
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: a kid. But you were like six. What were you doing?
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: I wasn't six. Were you playing the poker? I was 12.
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: There was a giant kid's arcade there.
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: OK.
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: All right. Hey, you know, it's possible that I lived
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: a life before you. Those years, those those days as
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: a 12 year old in the casino. I know it
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: stuns you, but I lived a lengthy life of. debauchery
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: and circumstance before you bone was working at uno table
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: at 12 years old at the casino up there in
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: connecticut go ahead and laugh when you're confused tonight i'll
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: be there i'm confused.
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: Mac is this how you want to treat someone on
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: their birthday Oh, shoot, it's Bone's birthday.
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: Damn, Bone. Thank you. Thank you, Finney. What perfect timing
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: for the casino. Thank you, Finney, for that. I appreciate it. Well,
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: happy birthday, Bone. Thank you, man. Happy birthday, sir. Thank you, man.
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: Glad to spend it with you. Can we talk about
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: Charlotte sports losses? How about we get into that? The
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: Hornets and Charlotte FC both playing last night. I was
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: legit bum, Bone, to find out. I double-checked with you
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: to see if this was the case. I thought every
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: Hornets game was going to be on local TV. I
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: was very bummed to find out last night was not
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: on local TV. Maybe it's best because the Hornets turned
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: it over 30 times last night in an exhibition against Boston.
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: This is where if you were out of town and
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: had the league passed, you would have seen it and
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: we didn't because it was on NBC Sports. Boston had it,
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: but not anything locally.
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't think anybody in the Charlotte area was
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: able to watch this game. Boston, again, wins by 21
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: last night, and the Hornets turned it over a boatload
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: of times in this game. They did hit 16 threes
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: to kind of keep them in it for a while.
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: Boston opened it up from an eight-point lead at the
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: end of three to the 21-point margin bone. We did
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: get the debut of Christian Anderson, hit a couple of threes,
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: scored 10 points, a couple of steals. So it feels
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: like it was a good debut for him. But there
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: were some ugly– There were some ugly numbers, Bone, in
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: this box score. Brandon Miller, 4 of 17 from the
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: field last night. Yeah, if you combine him and Reed,
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: they were 8 for 31 from the field. That's not
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: going to get it done in the regular season, but
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: no need to panic here. Mack, interesting, their opponent last night, Boston,
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: and how are they in the regular season? They're 3-0
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: in the preseason. Remember last year, they didn't have Jason
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: Tatum for most of the year. But with Jalen Brown,
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: they kept on rolling through the regular season. Their system
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: and Joe Missoula kept it running. Are they similar this year?
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: Are they going to keep it rolling just this time
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: with Jason Tatum and no Jalen Brown? Boston seems like
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: they're a machine no matter who's in there. So interesting
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: as we look at the teams in the East, where
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: does Boston fall? I would put them ahead of us, though.
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: I would put them ahead of the Charlotte Hornets. I
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: will say that. They've got Paul George now instead. And
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: a Mitchell Robinson at center, which is big for them defensively.
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: And George scored five points only last night. But as
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: far as the Hornets go, Salon actually... I think a
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: lot of speculation is about Tijon right now. It seems
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: like it's a Tijon versus Patty claps, Connaughton situation as
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: to which one does not make the final roster. They
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: still got to get rid of somebody from this final
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: roster that has the full contract. Tijon 16 points last night,
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: five of nine from the floor, four threes last night,
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: as they tried to decide bone, whether or not he's
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: going to be on the roster. The Hornets only have
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: one exhibition left. That is on Friday night. And I
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: am officially concerned about Kobe White, Conn Knipple, Grant Williams. Hell,
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: even Grayson Allen sat out his second straight game. There
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: was a tweet the other day, Meg. I forgot who
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: it was. I think it was over the weekend. Was it?
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: I forget. It was a while. And they did like
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: a most concerned. It was a national person of the
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: Hornets injuries tweet. the most concerning one to miss the
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: start of the year by percentage. And it was Kobe
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: White that was the most concerning one not to be
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: ready for the first part of the season. Of the
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: Hornets players, you're saying? Yes, of the Hornets guys, of
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: Khan and Grant Williams and Kobe White. I forget. I
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: thought it was Brett Siegel, but maybe I'm wrong, but...
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: They had Kobe White as the most likely to not
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: be there for the start of the regular season. Because
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: his injury occurred weeks after Grant and Khan. Grant and Khan,
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: I would say, were four weeks removed from their hamstring injuries.
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: When we talked to Khan about it, he was already
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: two weeks removed from it. So I think it's been
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: four now total, I feel like, give or take. Whereas
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: the Kobe calf injury is a new one. He has
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: this history of calf injuries recently. So, yeah, I don't
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: think there's any doubt about if you're betting– I think Kobe,
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: I'm almost feeling like, unfortunately, he's probably not going to
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: be there. I hope I reverse-mac curse it. But Khan
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: and Grant, we hadn't heard anything about those guys.
• 9:40
  Speaker 3: No.
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: And Khan seemed pretty insistent at media day that, hey,
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: I play. Like, I play through stuff. But we haven't
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: heard anything. And don't you want to get guys a
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: run out maybe on Friday night before the regular season
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: opener next week? Yeah, it would be nice. Not ideal
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: to go in with guys' first experience. time being in
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: the regular season. Now, the Hornets game last night obviously
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: doesn't mean anything in the big picture being a preseason game.
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: The Charlotte FC game, we cannot say the same about that, Bone.
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: That was a rough one last night. An absolute... Rough one,
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: considering they had only lost one game since the World
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: Cup break and how well they had been playing. That
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: was pretty ugly to see Columbia, Columbia, Columbus. What are
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: they playing in the World Cup? No shame in losing
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: to them. What the hell am I talking about? Hamas
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: Rodriguez out there to see Columbus dominate them the way
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: they did. I mean, playing through our midfield with ease,
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: firing 33 shots, 23 of them in the first half.
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: And if it wasn't for Christian Kalina, this was a
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: 3-1 loss, if y'all didn't know. It could have been
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: a 6-1 loss. Christian Kalina bone was absolutely unbelievable. The
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: fact that this game was a 1-1 tie. when Columbus
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: had 23 shots at halftime, was a miracle. We weren't
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: so lucky in the second half. Yeah, he had an
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: unbelievable sequence. He went Superman at one point and saved
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: the ball. That diving save. Yeah, he dove and then
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: he reacted to the second one. That was ugly. It
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: was also the way that Columbus scored. It was a
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: misplay and a giveaway and an immediate shot. Gave him
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: two goals out of the three. They gave him two
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: goals and the other one was a a basic cross
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: with not a whole lot of real resistance on the
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: shot itself. So, yeah, Bronico gave the first one away, right?
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: And that led to the first goal. And then our
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: guy Westwood misplayed the third one. Right after the second
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: goal of that cross, Westwood misplays one. So, yeah, two
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: of their goals were just– Kind of of the real
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: cheap variety, to be honest with you. Yeah, don't get
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: me wrong. They created a ton for themselves. And again,
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: if it wasn't for Kalina, it would have been a
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: total rout. But yeah, it is disappointing that our midfielders
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: gave away two goals. Our midfielders also were being run through.
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: I mean, just run past. It was not pretty. Couldn't
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: really even get... through their press, much of the game
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: to get the ball to Maxie and Pep BL to
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: create things. The goal we had, it wasn't even some
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: sort of thing that the team created. It was Toklamati
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: snagging the ball off somebody. That was a pretty nifty
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: goal where he caught the goalie flat-footed. Snagged the ball,
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: took the ball off somebody in their end. and went
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: in and cut in on his right foot and scored it.
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: But it wasn't like it was a team effort even
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: to score that goal. That was disappointing, man. By the way, Columbus,
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: not very good either. That's what's disappointing about it, too. No,
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: they're battling for a playoff spot. Yeah, they're 13th in
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: the East right now. They have won now 3 of 4,
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: but yeah, they took it to us, man. Togba Mahdi's
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: hotter than Fitty on a dating app right now. Togo
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: body's been on fire, man. Finney better be off those
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: dating apps now. Well, I mean, he found what on
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: there is what I mean. It's a credit to you
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: that you were scorching hot, found your bebe on the
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: dating app. Do kids call them bebes? By the way,
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: shout out to my bebe, Tara, who will be with
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: us at Harris Casino. You can't spell Harris without Tara.
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: I don't think. All right. We're going to fact check
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: that later on. All right. I do want to mention, Bone,
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: that Philadelphia is on fire. That's who we play on
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: Saturday night. They're now one point behind us. They beat
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: Chicago last night. So if Philly, and we had to
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: go to Philly, if we bring that weak sauce stuff
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: we did last night to Philly, we will get embarrassed
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: and we will be in sixth place in the standings.
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: So we're trying to move up to fourth or third.
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: Don't look now. Right behind us is a hot Philadelphia team.
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: The LSU, I want to mention Will Wade and his
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: LSU eligibility fighters, Bone, were in action yesterday in an exhibition.
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: Do I care about their exhibition? No. But I do
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: want to mention that the big story in college sports
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: right now, Bone, is related to to Will Wade's efforts
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: to try to squeeze out eligibility for guys, including a
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: guy in R.J. Lewis who was with two different NBA teams.
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: The SEC has fired shots yet again at LSU. LSU
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: has put in a motion to have that lawsuit that
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: the SEC filed against them Back when Lane Kiffin was
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: the lead story in this. Now Will Wade is the
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: lead story. Well, the SEC came out swinging in court.
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: They filed a memorandum in opposition to LSU's request to
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: dismiss the lawsuit, Bone. And they said defendants– they called
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: it the defendants' complete lack of institutional control over LSU's–
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: athletic programs. And they also bone used will Wade's own
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: quotes about their strategy and how they're unapologetic in the
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: way they're doing things. They used it against them in
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: this court filing. Gotcha guys. And they are basically like,
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: it's almost like LSU is like, Hey, Lane Kiffin didn't
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: use those players after all we good, right? SEC. And
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: the SEC is like, hell no. Cause you got the
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: basketball version. So it's the SEC is not laying down
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: on this. And Will Wade continues to be shameless. You know, Bone,
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: they suited up three of the guys last night. I
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: don't think they played, but like they were in uniform
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: last night. So I'm not sure, Bone, that Will Wade's
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: going to fare much better than Lane Kiffin did. What
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: do you think, Greg, the pit in Greg Sankey's stomach
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: is like when his phone rings back and it's the
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: 225 Baton Rouge area code that pops up on his phone.
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: Cause he's thinking, what a headache. He's thinking, all right,
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: this is Kiffin. They're like, no, sir. This is about
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: Will Wade. This is Will Wade. No, sir. This is
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: about Kim Mulkey. Every time that phone rings, he's got
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: to be thinking what, my God, what now? Just when
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: you thought it was safe, SEC, they are still pulling crap.
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: They have the, they have basketball Kiffin in their midst, man.
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: A conversation back at the water cooler with Kiffin and
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: Will Wade. Is that the smuggest water cooler conversation of
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: all time? What you got going on? And then Balky
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: rolls in with her attitude and all her damn sequins.
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: That holiday party's got to be something down there, huh? Oh,
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: my God. Because over there in the corner, you got
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: all that young talent stories about winning national titles over
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: there with Joe Burrow, how I brought him in here.
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: We were shucking oysters, and I said, Joe, we need
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: you down there, big boy. We need you to help
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: us win the title. Meanwhile, over there, absolute chaos going on.
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: Edwards-Romack's a great distraction in a room for the other
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: people doing shady work. That should be a reality show.
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: Those three coaches should be a damn reality show, man.
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: I mean, the way they follow teams around for a season,
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: follow the programs, LSU. Today, Kim Mulkey's fighting back against so-and-so.
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: That would be a... By the way, Kim Mulkey's... Today,
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: Kim Mulkey's getting her next designer suit made. She seems
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: mild compared to the other two right now. Not the
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: way she dresses, though. No, no. Is it possible Will
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: Wade could head to the bench bone for the opener
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: in a Kim Mulkey-inspired outfit? Feathers and sequins. Could you
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: see Eddie O'Mac? I believe I saw a girl Kim
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: Mulkey wearing a full zebra the other day on a
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: basketball court. Yeah. Do need to mention we got Duke
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: UNC coming up on Saturday for the victory bell. We
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: got injury questions for both of these teams. Nate Shepard
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: is officially listed on last night's initial availability report as questionable.
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: And I guess on three, sports has a source that
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: says his status is day to day. So that's huge.
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: They're kickers out. The starting kicker bone, Salas, is out.
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: So it'll be the freshman kicking that in a game
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: like this. These two teams play very close games. Could
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: be a huge deal. We had Connor O'Neill on the
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: other day who covers Duke, and he said he expected
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: Sheppard to be on that list there. But the day
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: to day thing is does make you feel a little
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: better that he you would think he's at least going
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: to give it a go in this game. I would think.
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: But we'll see. As far as Carolina goes, their secondary
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: is all kinds of banged up. Trey Miller is out.
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: Caleb Cost is doubtful. And Greg Smith's safety is questionable.
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: So it feels like they're at least going to be
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: without those two corners in Miller and Cost. Greg Smith
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: is clearly their best safety. So we've got some wounds, Bone,
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: which is pretty much the norm. Wait until you hear...
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: The Eagles. Lengthy injury. The Eagles probably would have been
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: shorter bound to just list the players not on the
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: injury report for them. We could read the Declaration of
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: Independence and it's shorter than what the Eagles injury list is.
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: It would take us less time. By the way, Mac,
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: notable thing also here. You mentioned ECU playing UNB tonight.
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: Tomorrow night we get App and Coastal. I wanted to
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: say right now that point spread is only it's at coastal,
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: but it's only a one and a half point spread.
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: The favorites app state only one and a half. So
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: the way we thought about those programs a couple of
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: weeks ago, coastal, not, not much of a home underdog, honestly,
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: in that game compared to what we thought of those teams.
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: Makes me think the folks in Vegas must've watched that
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: ugly nasty team against ODU. Again, I'm hoping that's the
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: outlier bone. That weather was freaking terrible. yes an app
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: wants to be able to throw it around so i'm
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: hoping that's the outlier but tonight we got ecu uh
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: and that uab defense they struggle in offense that defense
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: is pretty damn good at uab so that'll be that'll
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: be an interest are you going to have action on
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: this one in the harris sportsbook tonight Bo? Well, I
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: didn't go for conversation pieces. I went to win. I
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: didn't go there just to hang out and drink brewskis
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: and talk about life. I'm there to win. So that
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: is a yes. Let's see if Tara's going to win. Mrs.
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: Mack has already told me that she would really like
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: it if I did not bet any of our money.
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: She's not there. Whatever happens at Harrah's Resort Casino stays
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: at Harrah's Resort Casino. We come back. Panthers-Eagles injury updates.
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: The Eagles put 24 guys on theirs. We explain if
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: we can't all those. A line shift in Vegas for
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: the Eagles-Panthers game. And Nick Sirianni jumps on the praise
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: of the Bryce Wagon. Sports Radio 92.7 WFNZ.
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: But he had gone through nothing like Sheena just described.
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: And those sorts of things make you realize what's important
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: in life and your family and spending time with them.
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: But he never considered hanging it up. He was asked
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: that a couple of different ways yesterday. He's like, no,
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: you know, like once we determined that three months on
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: blood thinners, you know, don't run into any sharp objects
• 21:13
  Speaker 2: or anything, you know, He's good.
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: And the Panthers need him.
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: I mean, this is a week where Monroe Freeling is
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: looks like he's going to be out or at least
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: has been early in the week. And even if Monroe weren't,
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: I mean, even if he weren't dealing with the knee injury,
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: I think they were sliding Taylor Moten right back into
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: that right tackle spot.
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: Sports Radio 92.7 WFNZ. Mack and Bone with you. That
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: is Joe Person, the athletic. That is him teaming up
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: on the Panthers Collective Podcast. Sheena Quick and Aaron Duncan,
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: Dunk from Dunk On Demand. They do that podcast weekly.
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: It's a good listen. And Joe Person, I think we
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: all seem to have that same feeling. that Taylor Moten's
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: about to be put right back into the lineup on Sunday.
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: And I'm ready for it. I don't think we need
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: to act like it's– I think we need to understand
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: it might not be perfect, but I also think unperfect
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: Taylor Moten could still be a steadying, stabilizing force for
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: our offensive line. And how happy is that guy to
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: get back to football? You have to think of what
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: he was going through And what he described the other day,
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: this is a man who's coughing up blood, and it
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: was a nasty description of Of the blood clots. You
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: talk about a man, Mac, that, you know, football is
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: a barbaric sport, but a man that's happy to get
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: out there and hit other people and protect the quarterback
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: and do what he has to do. Taylor Moten, grateful
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: that he gets his opportunity again. That's a horrible thing
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: to go through. Absolutely. As a matter of fact, Bone,
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: let's hear it from Taylor. You have set us up
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: perfectly for Taylor Moten's comment. Yes, I guess it was
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: two days ago now. I'm losing my mind, right? They
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: didn't practice Wednesday. They didn't work on a work Wednesday bone.
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: And my whole mind is blown, but this was on
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: Tuesday when Taylor Moten, basically he was the guy that
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: broke down. Coach canals had them break down the huddle
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: after him, break down the huddle after practice. And basically
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: his message was one of just appreciating what, what he
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: has and what they have.
• 23:24
  Speaker 5: You know, honestly, it gave me, More gratitude for life
• 23:28
  Speaker 5: in general. You know, like football, yeah, but just past that.
• 23:31
  Speaker 5: You know, I'm just, now I wake up with the
• 23:33
  Speaker 5: new sense of just happy to be able to put
• 23:35
  Speaker 5: my feet.
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: You know, on the side of the earth.
• 23:37
  Speaker 5: You know, because when something like that happens, you see
• 23:40
  Speaker 5: the repercussions of what a pulmonary embolism does for people.
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: It puts that into perspective.
• 23:46
  Speaker 5: You know, as it goes on and having to sit
• 23:48
  Speaker 5: on the sidelines and not being out there definitely makes you,
• 23:51
  Speaker 5: you know, I felt that too last year. But, like,
• 23:54
  Speaker 5: missing an extended amount of time, even through preseason, not
• 23:57
  Speaker 5: being out there with the guys, you feel it.
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: Like, you want to be out there with.
• 24:00
  Speaker 5: Them and what have you.
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: And, you know, so I definitely, like, so the whole P.E.
• 24:06
  Speaker 5: Situation made me appreciate life in general. But, like, yeah,
• 24:09
  Speaker 5: missing football.
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: Since we came back and being around the guys. So
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: I'm glad I can be back to it. I love it.
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: That offensive line room needs his stabilizing ability on the field,
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: but they also need his vibes right now. What did
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: Canalis say they think of him as?
• 24:26
  Speaker 4: Fun uncle.
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: Fun uncle. Yeah, they need the fun uncle back in
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: that room, Boney. Also want to wish Taylor Moten back,
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: as we will now do, like the team does. We
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: will wish Taylor Moten a happy birthday. That's right. Now
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: we're in on the bit. Apparently it's your birthday like
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: every five days over there. They mock your age. Oh,
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: my goodness. But it is literally Bones' birthday. And it's
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: not a bit when we say happy birthday to Bones.
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: Also a fun uncle. I bet you would be, man.
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: Although my nephews often... You know, they bully me quite
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: a bit, but I am a fun uncle. You get
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: bullied by your nephews and your dog. That is what's
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: going on in your life right now. My nephew asked
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: me recently, am I at the age where I— he' s seven.
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: Am I concerned about driving in the dark yet at
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: my age? That's what he asked me the other day.
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: He is aware that old people don't like doing that?
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: And I had to tell him, you know what, it's
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: not a bad question, honestly. I'm having trouble seeing the lines.
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: It is hard to see those lines, Joe. I'm telling you, man.
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: You know, that's not on us. Make the lines brighter
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: for us to see them. By the way, speaking of lines,
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: how about the point spread for Panthers-Eagles? It went from
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: one and a half Philly favorites to Panthers by one
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: and a half right now. So it's this, and this is,
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: this is what has some fans feeling paranoid, right? When
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: people start thinking, oh man. Panthers shouldn't be underdogs. You
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: see what's going on in Philly. You see the high
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: flying Panthers against Detroit. Like that's what scares people when, when, when,
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: when we start expecting things out of Carolina. And this
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: stat is courtesy Mac of Eagles writer, Brandon Lee Gouten.
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: There you go, baby. One of your guys, BL Gouten.
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: There you go. Dating back to 2021, Sirianni and Jalen
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: Hurts combo. are winless, 0-6, when they are home underdogs.
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: There we go. I like that one. I like that trend. Well,
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: guess what, Mr.
• 26:16
  Speaker 3: Gowden?
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: Better update that to 0-7. I like that trend. I
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: said it. I said it loud. I said it proud.
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: So the Panthers put out... No Panther paranoia from Bone here.
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: The Panthers put out their injury report yesterday. Again, it
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: was like a... projection like if we practiced um uh
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: on Wednesday like usual this is what kind of would
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: happen type thing um so Freeling um Corey Dillon we're
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: given the DNP designation uh Corey Thornton right Why do
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: I keep calling him Corey Dillon? No, it's actually A.J. Dillon.
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: A.J.
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: Dillon. Bone did not know which name. I screwed up.
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: My God. A.J.
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: Dillon.
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: That's a double mop situation. Hit that mop again.
• 26:59
  Speaker 4: I screwed up.
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: Just screw up. You tried to clean up and you
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: knocked the bucket down where you were trying to clean up.
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: Limited yesterday, Damian Lewis trying to get him back. Tremble
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: is banged up right now, still from the Lions game.
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: He was limited. Phillips limited. Waller, there's an ankle injury
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: for Waller. Phillips, the hammy. They were both limited. The
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: good news is Coker, Moten, Wharton, you know, full practice.
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: But again, Bone. They didn't really practice yesterday. So I
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: feel like today is kind of an important day. They
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: actually practiced. They put out an injury report. And we
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: kind of get an idea of where these guys are.
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: You said it earlier. The Eagles literally put 24 guys
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: on the injury report. Now, a bunch of these guys
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: were on the injury report with injuries, but did full
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: practice yesterday. Randall Cunningham, Keith Byers, Keith Jackson, Mike Mamoula.
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: It goes on and on here. So many injuries. I
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: don't know where Mike Mimola came from. Who does not
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: belong in this thing? All right, but here are the
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: Eagles that didn't practice. Saquon Barkley, Devontae Smith, edge rusher
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: Jalix Hunt, and then running back Will Shipley. They're all
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: banged up at that running back spot. Center Drew Kendall.
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: Landon Dickerson has not been activated off IR yet. He's
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: been designated to start practicing. He was limited. So I
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: don't know if he's coming back yet. Michael Carter, DB,
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: he didn't practice as well. And then they have a
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: ton of guys, Bone, that were limited as well. So
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: it is a, I mean, again, we're getting better. They
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: are a mess in their own right. Oh, no doubt.
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: And I think when we do the victory formula, one
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: of those names being Saquon Barkley, a huge, massive... deal
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: to the to the panthers and if he's in there
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: obviously his talent and the panthers you know trying to
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: stop him will be a huge deal but if he's
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: not in there that completely alters i think the vibes
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: of this football game dude they ran for 22 yards
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: without him last week 22 yards. And the thing is,
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: I've heard some people say— And Bigsby's out, too. That's
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: not helping either. Shipley, you know, very well could miss.
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: Bigsby is out. I mean, they're down to their fourth
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: running back, essentially, if Barkley can't play. And I've heard
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: people say, Barkley ain't having a good year anyway. 5.1
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: yards to carry. You know, his yardage numbers might not
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: be what you would expect per game, but 5.1 yards
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: a carry. And they're up there saying they want Jalen
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: Hurts to run the ball more. He's running about five
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: times a game for about 22 yards a game. He's
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: got some calf injury. He practices. but he was he's
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: got a calf injury bone that he was on the
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: injury report with last week and he would not give
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: full details on the injury he said it's a unique
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: injury And it's a calf injury. I don't know what
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: that means. So, you know, that could bode well, Bone,
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: as we're trying to contain a mobile quarterback, if he's
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: a little less mobile than usual. What is there? Now,
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: they are not. Tell me if I'm wrong here. They
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: are not push pushing as much anymore, either.
• 30:06
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: No, not that I've noticed anyway. No. And I don't
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: think they're pushing as well when they do do it.
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: They got the new, well, I'm reading right here. They
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: were at the new OC, Sean Mannion. Their young OC
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: doesn't touch push as much as I did previously. So
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: that might be a change in philosophy as well there
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: for them. So we may be seeing a lack of
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: Tush on Sunday. There you go. Jalen Hurts, Tush will
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: go unpushed possibly this weekend. I ain't going to complain
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: about it, man. I'm not going to miss that thing
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: if they choose not to do it. Now, Nick Sirianni
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: had his presser yesterday. Philly on a regular practice schedule.
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: Matter of fact, remember, they're coming back from overseas. But
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: they did practice yesterday. And Nick Sirianni, add him to
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: the list of people around the NFL that are raving
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: about Bryce Young.
• 30:54
  Speaker 4: Man, he's playing really good football. He can get the
• 30:58
  Speaker 4: ball out really quick. He's got a great release. I
• 31:02
  Speaker 4: think he really processes the game fast. You can tell that. He,
• 31:08
  Speaker 4: you know, in some of the RPO game, he has
• 31:10
  Speaker 4: an ability to, I mean, like I said, to get
• 31:12
  Speaker 4: the ball out fast to his playmakers.
• 31:15
  Speaker 3: And he.
• 31:19
  Speaker 4: Is really he's a good athlete to be able to
• 31:21
  Speaker 4: get himself out of trouble. What I see when he
• 31:23
  Speaker 4: gets himself out of trouble when something breaks down is
• 31:27
  Speaker 4: he does a good job of keeping his eyes down
• 31:29
  Speaker 4: the field and making, you know, and finding his receivers.
• 31:32
  Speaker 4: So obviously that's going to be really important that we
• 31:34
  Speaker 4: keep him in the pocket. But I got a lot
• 31:37
  Speaker 4: of respect for him. You know, a guy whose career
• 31:41
  Speaker 4: started off, I would say, slow, right, as watching it
• 31:44
  Speaker 4: from afar and with time. you know, has become a good,
• 31:51
  Speaker 4: solid quarterback. And I got a lot of respect for
• 31:53
  Speaker 4: guys that can do that.
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: Yeah, no doubt. Talking about Bryce Young there, Matt, but
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: I do believe that's not just normal coach. I think
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: Nick Sirianni believes that. I also think Nick Sirianni, Matt,
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: might be applying for a future staff job with the
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: Panthers when it goes awry in Philadelphia and the Panthers
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: have an opening year. Well, When Brad Idzik replaces him
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: in Philly, he would like this job here to be
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: Bryce's OC? Is that what's going on? Yeah, it's also
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: credit to Nick Sirianni. It's hard to speak that well
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: when your backside is literally on fire. They were extinguishing
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: Mac his backside while he was talking. God, and that's
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: the thing, man. We got another text of Panther paranoia, Michael.
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: Or no, not Michael. Michael says it's time to win
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: when we're favored. But IPA Nate says, all this publicity
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: around Bryce Young, and he says, I'm a believer. He says,
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: we're getting set up for a classic drop the ball
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: Panthers game. I'm worried. With that said, go in there.
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: And turn those, it won't take much to turn that
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: fan base against Sirianni and the entire team. Just go
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: in there, start strong, and get that damn nasty Philly
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: fan base turning on their own. Like, if they mess around,
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: let them hang in, let Philly get off to a
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: good start, then I'll start getting paranoid. Like, here we go.
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: We have a texter, Mac Paranoid. He said, there's no
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: way Mac and Bone are driving three hours to go
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: to a casino and a sports book to do a
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: Panther Friday from that location and not pantering up on
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: that Friday. We're not driving up there to say the
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: Eagles win. And this guy is worried about the fallout
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: of all this. You're going to hear me go to
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: the window and get my $ 1, 000 Panther Super Bowl victory
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: ticket live on the air. And Mrs. Mack will be
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: driving her car at the time, and she will crash
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: her car when she hears this moment.
• 33:45
  Speaker 4: Oh, God.
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: That would be hilarious. No, that won't happen. But anyway. Anyway, yeah,
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: it's going to be fun to do the show up
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: at Harris tomorrow. But, yes, I mean, I get the
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: paranoia surrounding this game. I do want to mention a
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: couple of things. The Panthers are improving. They're getting better, obviously.
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: Bryce is so much better, offense better. But we do
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: understand that– The Panthers are not good enough yet to
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: avoid people being paranoid. We're just not there yet. They
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: can prove something. Go on the road. Game that, hey,
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: this team's wounded. This team's fan base hates them. They're
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: demoralized last week. Go in and win a game like this.
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: Start making us less paranoid, Panthers, by proving something. You
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: can go in there and win a game like this.
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: I do want to mention real quick, through the NFC South,
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: Michael Penix is on track to start against the Bears.
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: He practiced yesterday, so it seems like that injury scare
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: is not much of anything. Baker Mayfield, it seems like, Bone,
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: will sit out one more game this week, but you
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: know who he's got next week for his return. That
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: is here in Carolina. against the Panthers, and it's getting
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: juicy in New Orleans. Owner Gail Benson publicly called out
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: the head coach, Kellen Moore, the GM, Mickey Loomis, and
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: herself saying, it is my job ultimately to tell them
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: they need to do better. Well, Gail, I think you
• 35:05
  Speaker 1: just did it in public. And so that's a huge
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: story there with them at one and four, man. Gail,
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: calm down. You're doing just fine. It's the NFC South.
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: This is what you do here. You're right in there.
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: One in four. You got them right where you want them.
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: We know that we were one in three last year.
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: She said, this doesn't set our standard. No, it does perfectly.
• 35:21
  Speaker 1: Settle down, Gail. We come back. It's our weekly installment
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: of you're doing too much. Who in sports, who in life,
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: Mac is doing too much. You're going to hear the
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: story of a coach that got fired in high school
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: because his team is too good. Sports Radio 92.7 WFNZ.
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: Sports Radio 92.7 WFNZ. Mack and Bone with you. Rolling
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: through hour one. There will be obviously tons of Panther
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: talk on this show today. They are back in action
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: on Sunday. And we're on edge. Everybody's a little bit
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: on edge for this one. And we will keep talking through.
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: Going to talk about the defense. who is still for
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: the next month plus without their two starting corners. Going
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: to talk a little defense at 7 o'clock. But right
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: now you heard the music coming in. That means one thing.
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: That means it's time for You're Doing Too Much. Who
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: out there in sports or anywhere in life is doing
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: a little bit too much, and they deserve to be
• 36:33
  Speaker 1: called out on the Mac and Bone show. Boney, who
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: will you start with on this one? Well, this is
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: fitting of the text I just got from my mom
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: that said, happy birthday. I'm listening to the show right now,
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: and she's in Connecticut on a vacation where we're from.
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: My mom's still a diehard UConn fan, loves Mac, her guy,
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: Dan Hurley. Oh, she likes them feisty. Coincidentally, now in
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: this segment, Dan Hurley comes up and you're doing too much.
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: Because in preseason game number one, in talking to the
• 37:03
  Speaker 1: sideline reporter, Dan Hurley had, as he usually does, he
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: had some complaints. He was not happy. What was it about?
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: The officiating, his team? No. Finney, play the audio of
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: what has bothered the now legendary Dan Hurley. I know
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: you're sweating right here.
• 37:20
  Speaker 2: I mean, whatever this is, this is like a wool.
• 37:22
  Speaker 2: It feels like a straight.
• 37:23
  Speaker 4: Jacket that they put me in. I can't believe this
• 37:26
  Speaker 4: is the best that we got to wear tonight.
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: Good thing is it's exhibition game. So you have a
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: lot of time to figure that out. Mackie did not
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: like the quarter zips that they provided him for the game.
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: This is the man that wears the same suit all
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: the time, but the quarter zip is just a bridge
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: too far. He had to find something to complain about, right?
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: My God. How tough must he be to deal with
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: to the people around him that have to make sure
• 37:48
  Speaker 1: everything's okay in his life? Is everything, is anything ever
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: okay with that man? Holy crap. That was classic. I
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: told my mom we're going to talk Dan Hurley. She
• 37:58
  Speaker 1: thought it was going to be a positive thing about
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: Dan Hurley. She thought he was going to get praised? No. Oh, man.
• 38:05
  Speaker 1: But I did see, I think it was one of
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: the Field of 68 guys said, basketball's officially back. Dan
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: Hurley's complaining about something in a damn interview. Anyway, that
• 38:13
  Speaker 1: was during their exhibition against Syracuse the other night. He
• 38:17
  Speaker 1: is in mid-season form already up there in Connecticut. I mean,
• 38:21
  Speaker 1: if we're complaining about quarter zips in October, where is
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: this thing going? And what is Mick Cronin going to
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: counter with? Oh, man. Mick Cronin's been so happy in
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: the preseason. Like, all his quotes are fun and happy.
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: And it's like, just wait until they start playing games.
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: I've got to call out somebody. Don't know any names.
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: Wouldn't share any names. Wouldn't shame anybody. I'm not going
• 38:41
  Speaker 1: to give you any street. Not what you're about. Not
• 38:42
  Speaker 1: going to give me a street address here, but on
• 38:44
  Speaker 1: my way to work in the great town of Indian
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: trail this morning, I saw a house fully decorated for Christmas.
• 38:53
  Speaker 1: You talk about doing too much. We are still over
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: two weeks away from Halloween. I couldn't believe what I
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: was seeing bone fully lit up with Christmas lights, Santa lights,
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: inflatables out in the front yard. This is the epitome
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: of the spirit of you're doing too much. Either you're
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: doing too much, or maybe you're just doing it too
• 39:14
  Speaker 1: early would be the name of this unbelievable bone. If
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: you do, I like, if you did this in a,
• 39:21
  Speaker 1: like before Thanksgiving, I'd probably call you out. You fully
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: decorate the exterior of your home for Christmas two weeks
• 39:29
  Speaker 1: before Halloween. You're doing too much, dang it. That's just
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: not Christmas cream. That's Christmas stalking. That is following Christmas
• 39:38
  Speaker 1: around all year. Finney, did you say that? On the
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: drive up to Harrah's that there's a Christmas town we
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: go through?
• 39:45
  Speaker 3: Yeah, when y'all get close to the casino, when you
• 39:49
  Speaker 3: get into the reservation, you'll go through Santa's Land.
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: Santa's Land.
• 39:52
  Speaker 3: And I think it's nothing more than a cover-up for
• 39:55
  Speaker 3: some illegal activities.
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: You think they're doing too much there in Santa's Land?
• 40:00
  Speaker 3: I've got many questions, Mac. I need this address of
• 40:02
  Speaker 3: the house you drove by today. Because I will go
• 40:05
  Speaker 3: by on my way home.
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: You will know exactly where it is. I'll explain it
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: to you.
• 40:09
  Speaker 3: And I will go out of my way.
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: You have passed this house when driving me before. Okay. Yeah.
• 40:15
  Speaker 3: I will stop in their yard and honk the horn
• 40:19
  Speaker 3: Tony Soprano style. And they will watch me tear down
• 40:22
  Speaker 3: their decorations. You should be arrested. thrown in jail, in prison,
• 40:29
  Speaker 3: if you put up Christmas decorations before Halloween. I don't
• 40:35
  Speaker 3: believe you should decorate before Thanksgiving. I think Thanksgiving is
• 40:38
  Speaker 3: the better of the two holidays. I understand why people
• 40:40
  Speaker 3: do it. But before Halloween, no. You should be putting
• 40:44
  Speaker 3: a psych ward.
• 40:45
  Speaker 1: He's going from jail to a psych ward. People now
• 40:48
  Speaker 1: that live or work in Indian Trail are asking to
• 40:51
  Speaker 1: know where that is. Everybody is going to go to
• 40:52
  Speaker 1: the house and yell stuff now at these poor people. Yes.
• 40:55
  Speaker 1: Do not celebrate too early, family.
• 40:58
  Speaker 3: The only way they can rationalize this, Mac, that crap
• 41:01
  Speaker 3: better be down December 26th. If that crap stays up
• 41:04
  Speaker 3: past the new year.
• 41:06
  Speaker 1: Then no.
• 41:06
  Speaker 3: Something has to be done. This is an epidemic in
• 41:09
  Speaker 3: this country that needs to be addressed.
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: And you're going by there December 26th at about noon.
• 41:15
  Speaker 1: You go give him the morning. You are going to
• 41:17
  Speaker 1: go by and examine. All right, Bone. Who else is
• 41:20
  Speaker 1: doing too much, Bone? Matt, we have a high school
• 41:23
  Speaker 1: football coach in Oregon who was fired right after a
• 41:26
  Speaker 1: 63-0 win in a game that was called at halftime.
• 41:31
  Speaker 1: How did a coach get fired for winning by too much?
• 41:34
  Speaker 1: Marist Catholic High in Eugene, Oregon, fired head coach Zach LaBoy.
• 41:39
  Speaker 1: after the Spartans not only ran up the score against
• 41:42
  Speaker 1: a Cottage Grove high team that only had 16 players,
• 41:46
  Speaker 1: but they also attempted two onside kicks, one of them
• 41:50
  Speaker 1: while up 56-0 with two minutes to go in the
• 41:53
  Speaker 1: first half. Unbelievable. The onside kick failed, but the next
• 41:56
  Speaker 1: play they intercepted a pass to take a 63-0 lead
• 42:00
  Speaker 1: at halftime. Zach LaBoy, you done did too much. You
• 42:03
  Speaker 1: had your team too ready to go, and you didn't
• 42:06
  Speaker 1: know how to freaking turn it off. I have no sympathy.
• 42:09
  Speaker 1: I know some people are going to come on with
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: the tough guy mentality bone. The team's got to stop you.
• 42:15
  Speaker 1: But when you are still when it's high school and
• 42:17
  Speaker 1: especially lower, I mean, being around youth sports, I've seen
• 42:20
  Speaker 1: so much running up the score in youth sports, too,
• 42:22
  Speaker 1: like when they're real little. It's just I'm sorry. Like,
• 42:25
  Speaker 1: I know you think you're auditioning for that job with
• 42:29
  Speaker 1: an NFL team. And if you could just put up 70,
• 42:32
  Speaker 1: an NFL owner is going to call you. But it
• 42:34
  Speaker 1: ain't that deep. Like it just isn't like that stuff's unnecessary.
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: Guarantee you the bebops of the tough guys are going
• 42:41
  Speaker 1: to say, suck it up. Why would this guy do wrong?
• 42:44
  Speaker 1: I remember in a youth soccer game in Winston, it
• 42:48
  Speaker 1: was my rec league team at the time, but we
• 42:50
  Speaker 1: were playing up against them for whatever reason. We were
• 42:53
  Speaker 1: playing against a club. I don't remember what the reason was,
• 42:56
  Speaker 1: but we got beat like 18 to three. I had
• 42:59
  Speaker 1: three goals that game. Look at you, baby. No, no,
• 43:01
  Speaker 1: but listen. Two for my team, one for their team. Oh, okay. Oh,
• 43:05
  Speaker 1: that's okay. That sounded better at first. I accidentally put
• 43:08
  Speaker 1: one in for their team as well, but I still
• 43:12
  Speaker 1: remember that because you know what? It wasn't right. So
• 43:15
  Speaker 1: I agree with this, but the tough guys are going
• 43:17
  Speaker 1: to say, when we were growing up, we got beat
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: 85 to nothing. I'm a better man for it. Yeah,
• 43:23
  Speaker 1: there'll be some of that. Bebop has already chimed in
• 43:26
  Speaker 1: on our theme song for this segment, which is Too Much.
• 43:28
  Speaker 1: by dave matthews band shout out to the texters who
• 43:31

• 44:09
  Speaker 1: would be bebop coaching youth sports man like belichick post
• 44:13
  Speaker 1: spygate just trying to obliterate and embarrass anyway i've got
• 44:17
  Speaker 1: to give kelly clarkson a little bit of a you're
• 44:19
  Speaker 1: doing too much Bone informed me of this thing that
• 44:23
  Speaker 1: is like blowing up in like like Page Six and
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: People magazine and all those type of publications. Pablo Torre
• 44:29
  Speaker 1: went and got surveillance footage from this Brooklyn toy store
• 44:33
  Speaker 1: that Kelly Clarkson threw a social media fit on afterwards.
• 44:36
  Speaker 1: After she had a back and forth with one of
• 44:38
  Speaker 1: the workers in the store, she wanted to buy this
• 44:41
  Speaker 1: like $ 15, 000 mechanical toy bird. There's like two of them
• 44:45
  Speaker 1: in the entire world. We've all been there before. She
• 44:47
  Speaker 1: wanted to buy this thing. And she thought because she
• 44:50
  Speaker 1: was dressed down, right? And like jeans, a t-shirt, a
• 44:52
  Speaker 1: hat on. She thought she was being judged and they
• 44:55
  Speaker 1: were acting like she couldn't afford it. And they didn't
• 44:57
  Speaker 1: know I'm the great Kelly Clarkson. I can afford anything
• 45:00
  Speaker 1: I want to. Um, and she just threw a Karen
• 45:02
  Speaker 1: like hissy fit. And I don't know, maybe I'm, maybe
• 45:05
  Speaker 1: I'm wrong to do this bone. Cause we don't know.
• 45:07
  Speaker 1: All we saw was a surveillance footage. There's no audio
• 45:10
  Speaker 1: of it, but it's kind of like, could you really
• 45:12
  Speaker 1: have been treated that badly that you had to go
• 45:15
  Speaker 1: on there? Like this store bone is getting calls and
• 45:18
  Speaker 1: threats and people are saying nasty stuff about the owner and,
• 45:22
  Speaker 1: It's like, did you really have to use your clout
• 45:24
  Speaker 1: to turn a ton of your fans against this store
• 45:27
  Speaker 1: over whatever this little thing is? This whole thing makes
• 45:30
