- 0:03Speaker 1: When I come on sty oh.
- 0:05Speaker 2: It is you guys are the most entertaining sports program
- 0:11Speaker 2: in the world.
- 0:13Speaker 3: The Bone Gobin, no, no, stop talking. You and I
- 0:15Speaker 3: are a couple eating a lady in the tramp. You're
- 0:18Speaker 3: the lady on the tram. Yeah, come on, come on baby.
- 0:22Speaker 3: I wish I was Boopy Boopy McLean Man. That's a
- 0:25Speaker 3: great name.
- 0:25Speaker 1: Oh the Bud.
- 0:40Speaker 4: Good Monday Morning, Charlotte. Hope everybody had a great weekend.
- 0:43Speaker 4: I'm assuming it wasn't a great between one and four
- 0:46Speaker 4: on Saturday, and we will deal with that today on
- 0:49Speaker 4: this radio show. Uh, But otherwise, we hope you had
- 0:53Speaker 4: a good one. We will discuss in full for better
- 0:56Speaker 4: or worse, the ugly loss in Buffalo for the Carolina Anthers.
- 1:00Speaker 4: We'll talk about it at length here on this show.
- 1:03Speaker 4: We also Bone also has the list the definitive lists
- 1:07Speaker 4: of angry texts from midgame on Saturday.
- 1:11Speaker 1: We will look back.
- 1:12Speaker 4: We will compare how you feel today to how you
- 1:14Speaker 4: felt on Saturday in the middle of the game. We've
- 1:18Speaker 4: got much more to talk about on this show today.
- 1:21Speaker 4: Dallas Cowboys sign a pass rusher I believe we've all
- 1:24Speaker 4: heard of around here.
- 1:25Speaker 1: Last night.
- 1:26Speaker 4: We'll talk about that Hornets make a trade on Friday afternoon.
- 1:30Speaker 4: They went out and got that back up point guard
- 1:32Speaker 4: that we all thought that they needed to add a veteran.
- 1:35Speaker 4: So we will discuss Dennis Shrewder in that edition. We
- 1:40Speaker 4: got college football news, unfortunately, we got injury news from
- 1:43Speaker 4: South Carolina and Clemson. We've got Charlotte FC getting a
- 1:46Speaker 4: dub this weekend. Joey Logano getting another win this weekend too.
- 1:50Speaker 4: In the last four he's getting hot. So there's plenty
- 1:53Speaker 4: to talk about on the show today, but as you
- 1:55Speaker 4: can imagine, it will be heavy about the Carolina Panthers
- 2:00Speaker 4: and something that I feel like we've seen before Bone
- 2:04Speaker 4: a crappy performance in the preseason that leads people to
- 2:08Speaker 4: lose their minds.
- 2:09Speaker 1: What's up, Bone man? How you feeling? Good morning to you, Mac,
- 2:12Speaker 1: back to you.
- 2:12Speaker 3: All you handle all the ill, Let you hand all
- 2:14Speaker 3: the negativity, MAC right back to you.
- 2:16Speaker 1: Good luck today. I'm gonna sit here and just my
- 2:19Speaker 1: my business.
- 2:19Speaker 4: Did you just come in to copy and paste all
- 2:21Speaker 4: the Saturday texts? And now you're you're gonna you're gonna
- 2:24Speaker 4: roll out on me.
- 2:25Speaker 3: Look, there's a there's a fine line here, because yes,
- 2:28Speaker 3: the performance was awful. There's no putting sugar in that
- 2:31Speaker 3: coffee to make it taste better like that was. That
- 2:34Speaker 3: was a nasty performance in a vacuum. But again, I
- 2:38Speaker 3: look at the calendar and it's August seventeenth. So while
- 2:41Speaker 3: the game itself was bad, I do believe some people
- 2:44Speaker 3: MAC may need to take a step back and look
- 2:46Speaker 3: at the date and maybe not freak out to the
- 2:50Speaker 3: levels they are right. But the game itself was bad,
- 2:53Speaker 3: no doubt. But the overreactions that I saw were just.
- 2:56Speaker 3: And I can name you before I looked the guys
- 2:59Speaker 3: that they almost enjoy, they almost enjoy when things go bad.
- 3:03Speaker 3: I can name you the guys that they wanted to
- 3:06Speaker 3: go bad. Their fans I guess they say they are
- 3:09Speaker 3: but they get a lot of jolly off of.
- 3:12Speaker 4: The Panthers not playing well, and it's telling about the
- 3:14Speaker 4: Panthers for a lot of them. It's so that they
- 3:16Speaker 4: could talk trash to us and say, you guys are wrong.
- 3:19Speaker 4: That's really But anyway, we'll get into that. That's eight
- 3:21Speaker 4: o'clock hour.
- 3:22Speaker 1: Bone.
- 3:22Speaker 4: We will save the mid game venom for the eight
- 3:26Speaker 4: o'clock hour. In the meantime, we will see.
- 3:28Speaker 3: He's gonna play the NFL primetime highlight music, and I'm
- 3:31Speaker 3: gonna read them like Chris Burber. Okay, Okay, we go
- 3:34Speaker 3: to goat Bugs eighty one.
- 3:36Speaker 5: In the.
- 3:38Speaker 4: Meantime, we will allow the Texters to create their Monday
- 3:41Speaker 4: morning Panther venom. All right, well, you could create a
- 3:43Speaker 4: whole new batch of venom this morning. The first team
- 3:46Speaker 4: offense is obviously the biggest headline. They play three series,
- 3:52Speaker 4: nine plays and don't get a first down. They look
- 3:56Speaker 4: like they had a first down. I guess it was
- 3:58Speaker 4: actually ten plays, but one of them was the penalty.
- 4:01Speaker 4: Looked like they had a first down bone on a
- 4:03Speaker 4: nicely executed wide receiver screen XL blocking well out front.
- 4:08Speaker 4: Cocher gets the first down, but it was an RPO
- 4:12Speaker 4: and Luke Fortner thought it was going to be a
- 4:13Speaker 4: run play and got himself too far downfield. Other than that,
- 4:18Speaker 4: that was probably the highlight of the day. It was
- 4:22Speaker 4: three three and outs. It was very reminiscent bone of
- 4:26Speaker 4: last year against Houston. That was the second preseason game
- 4:30Speaker 4: the Panthers first team offense did two to two and outs,
- 4:33Speaker 4: and Dave Canalis famously said they did not earn another series.
- 4:38Speaker 4: Fast forward to this game bone three to three and outs,
- 4:42Speaker 4: and Dave Canalis said they did not earn more reps.
- 4:45Speaker 4: So it really does feel a little deja vui from
- 4:49Speaker 4: last years Houston performance.
- 4:51Speaker 1: That's a good call.
- 4:52Speaker 3: It does the difference in this though, Mac in what
- 4:54Speaker 3: we see in the regular season outside of you know,
- 4:58Speaker 3: some of the guys that are playing. Bryce doesn't always
- 5:01Speaker 3: get off the hot starts anyway, most of the time,
- 5:02Speaker 3: either does the offense last year. Bryce in this offense
- 5:06Speaker 3: has the ability to win games late and make up
- 5:09Speaker 3: for when you're playing in the preseason. It's such a
- 5:12Speaker 3: short sample size that what Bryce does this in the
- 5:15Speaker 3: regular season, but he makes up for at a time,
- 5:17Speaker 3: so there was no opportunity to make up for it
- 5:19Speaker 3: in a game like this.
- 5:20Speaker 1: I just like I could. We couldn't come out with
- 5:22Speaker 1: a better feeling at all.
- 5:23Speaker 4: I Mean, the thing is, I see all these texts
- 5:25Speaker 4: coming in during the game about Bryce Young. I mean,
- 5:27Speaker 4: the story of the game is the interior offensive line. Yeah,
- 5:30Speaker 4: it's like, point blank period. I don't understand where all
- 5:33Speaker 4: the Bryce Young takes come from. I mean, I guess
- 5:35Speaker 4: he's the quarterback. Y'all want to blame him for everything,
- 5:38Speaker 4: but you had two backup guards in they did not play.
- 5:42Speaker 4: We knew they weren't playing Damian Lewis. He has been
- 5:45Speaker 4: back in very sparingly in team drill since this calf injury.
- 5:48Speaker 4: It's had him out for a while. Hunt has been
- 5:52Speaker 4: there more, but also they've been kind of resting him
- 5:55Speaker 4: a little bit. So they opted to not play either
- 5:57Speaker 4: of the starting guards that they paid Bone. You know,
- 6:02Speaker 4: a combine hundred and fifty million dollars plus two, and
- 6:05Speaker 4: it obviously showed a Chandler Zavala is far from a
- 6:09Speaker 4: fan favorite as it is Saturday is only gonna hurt
- 6:11Speaker 4: his status with the fan base. He had a miserable outing.
- 6:15Speaker 4: I mean the first play of the game, Bone, they
- 6:17Speaker 4: try to get Jonathan broke. Jonathan Brooks, welcome back to football.
- 6:20Speaker 4: Your left guard completely whipted and you are just bludgeoned
- 6:24Speaker 4: right at the line that you obviously had pass pro
- 6:28Speaker 4: issues with him. Brady Christensen wasn't innocent either that sack.
- 6:32Speaker 4: It looked like he and Zavalla both had issues multiple times.
- 6:35Speaker 4: They had issues with kind of passing off stunts. So
- 6:39Speaker 4: if we end up Bone having to play both of
- 6:42Speaker 4: those guards, if you have injuries to both guards man.
- 6:45Speaker 3: We are in trouble. There's no doubt. There's no doubt
- 6:49Speaker 3: about that. Yeah, it makes it makes you wonder, you know,
- 6:53Speaker 3: in time, depending on how the tackles do and what
- 6:56Speaker 3: happens there when Icky comes back Mack, does he end
- 7:00Speaker 3: up becoming We talked about him being a piece of
- 7:03Speaker 3: the offensive line. Does Icky Mack end up if a
- 7:06Speaker 3: guard goes down and he's ready to go? Does Ikey
- 7:09Speaker 3: step in at some point as just a depth piece
- 7:12Speaker 3: on the offensive line? That's better option than these guys are.
- 7:14Speaker 4: Yeah, the Icky thing is very interesting because they have
- 7:18Speaker 4: given us no time frame on him.
- 7:20Speaker 1: Meanwhile, has he been around it all working anywhere? Have
- 7:22Speaker 1: we seen Nicky anywhere? Yeah, he was out there. He
- 7:25Speaker 1: was out there.
- 7:25Speaker 3: He was dancing. He was actually dancing around the music
- 7:27Speaker 3: the other day. So he's well enough to dance. But
- 7:31Speaker 3: you know, he is not practice yet and they won't
- 7:33Speaker 3: give you a timeframe. Meanwhile, the Bears left tackle suffered
- 7:38Speaker 3: the same torn pateeller tendon injury to his knee on
- 7:41Speaker 3: the exact same day in the playoffs last year. People
- 7:44Speaker 3: in Chicago thought he might miss the entire season. He
- 7:46Speaker 3: was activated yesterday and practicing he's off the pup list.
- 7:49Speaker 4: That's like, does that mean Nicky's closing? And we think
- 7:52Speaker 4: I don't know. But anyway, Yeah, the Ikey thing's an
- 7:55Speaker 4: interesting point. I do think Brady C, like Zavala, is
- 7:58Speaker 4: a guy that I do think if we see more
- 8:00Speaker 4: of this in the preseason, I do feel like there
- 8:03Speaker 4: is gonna be some serious faith lost in him, not
- 8:05Speaker 4: just externally but internally.
- 8:07Speaker 1: But Brady C.
- 8:08Speaker 4: I will give him a little bit of leeway. He's
- 8:10Speaker 4: coming off that torn achilles and he didn't sign bone
- 8:13Speaker 4: until right when we were getting camp going, So I
- 8:16Speaker 4: will give him a little bit of leeway. Maybe he
- 8:18Speaker 4: can work his way up to being a decent option
- 8:20Speaker 4: at guard. Damian Lewis is pretty reliable knock on wood.
- 8:25Speaker 4: He's played sixteen games in like the last four seasons,
- 8:28Speaker 4: so he seems to miss one a year. Robert Hunt,
- 8:31Speaker 4: on the other hand, had the serious injury last year
- 8:34Speaker 4: and has missed more games. So but anyway, we can't
- 8:38Speaker 4: afford to have two guards out one guard out. I
- 8:40Speaker 4: wonder if we can can get away with that, But
- 8:42Speaker 4: I gotta be honest with you. Fortner deserves the business too.
- 8:46Speaker 4: Fortner had the penalty. I just mentioned.
- 8:48Speaker 3: He also was beat for a TfL in the run
- 8:51Speaker 3: game badly, I mean immediately, and Rashid Walker nobody's talking
- 8:55Speaker 3: about him. Rashid Walker got beat on the third down
- 8:58Speaker 3: on the first series where Bryce had to throw the allway.
- 9:01Speaker 3: So it's the offensive line to me was the whole problem.
- 9:06Speaker 3: You couldn't how can you judge Bryce? How can you
- 9:08Speaker 3: judge anything else when the offensive lineatly. I did not
- 9:11Speaker 3: walk away with thoughts of oh my god, Bryce is terrible.
- 9:14Speaker 3: It goes into all you just said about the offensive
- 9:16Speaker 3: line and the defense. Oh, by the way, got carved
- 9:20Speaker 3: up as well. Josh Allen looked like he was in
- 9:23Speaker 3: mid October in his MVP year where he was just
- 9:26Speaker 3: going off.
- 9:27Speaker 1: So what do you call?
- 9:28Speaker 3: And we'll list him off later. I'm sure we go
- 9:31Speaker 3: through the list of problems and what caused this. There
- 9:34Speaker 3: were many problems back that went beyond Bryce. That defense
- 9:37Speaker 3: was also way too much space given for the Buffalo.
- 9:40Speaker 1: There was I.
- 9:41Speaker 3: Still will I will push back a little bit on
- 9:44Speaker 3: people saying the first team defense was terrible. First of all,
- 9:47Speaker 3: it was nowhere near the offense. There's also some things
- 9:51Speaker 3: in there. First of all, I thought the edge rushers
- 9:52Speaker 3: played phenomenal. I mean, I'm talking of Jamien Phillips, Princely, Gibson,
- 9:58Speaker 3: Cam gill In, kumbe got In. Those guys were phenomenal,
- 10:02Speaker 3: and I thought they had a really not yet got
- 10:05Speaker 3: we're dudes wide open?
- 10:06Speaker 1: Hell yeah, they were? Is that ideal? Hell no.
- 10:08Speaker 4: Mike Jackson came out and apologized after the game, said,
- 10:11Speaker 4: I my leverage way was lining up, just gave them
- 10:14Speaker 4: two of those completions. Cherialists also is trying to cover
- 10:18Speaker 4: more and Shakir that's a no no. But so that's
- 10:24Speaker 4: that's something they found out if they didn't know already.
- 10:27Speaker 4: But I will say Bone, I thought the red zone
- 10:29Speaker 4: stop where Phillips and Princely, Princely got the pressure. Phillips
- 10:35Speaker 4: got the sack, and then the play right after that,
- 10:37Speaker 4: Phillips got the pressure on Josh allen forced the incompletion.
- 10:41Speaker 3: Like that's awesome. You're playing against a great offense and
- 10:43Speaker 3: maybe the best quarterback in football. You got you bought
- 10:46Speaker 3: up in the red zone. The second drive, they should
- 10:49Speaker 3: have been off the field. Travis Gibson had a sack,
- 10:53Speaker 3: but he grabbed the face mask. So if they get
- 10:55Speaker 3: off the field there Bone it's three points in two
- 10:58Speaker 3: drives by Josh Allen, one of the best offenses in football.
- 11:01Speaker 3: So you know, by the way, the edge guys didn't
- 11:03Speaker 3: have Derek Brown and there either no keep that in mind.
- 11:06Speaker 3: So yeah, I was talking more about the the secondary
- 11:09Speaker 3: guys and their issues and the Yeah.
- 11:11Speaker 1: I'm not saying it was perfect.
- 11:12Speaker 4: They moved down the field, but again that who we
- 11:15Speaker 4: were playing against. The force out there, and Joe Brady
- 11:17Speaker 4: wasn't messing around like they were scheming guys open, like
- 11:21Speaker 4: they kind of like reminded me of what is it
- 11:22Speaker 4: did last week? Like it wasn't vanilla. It didn't feel
- 11:25Speaker 4: like for Buffalo's offense. So I'm going to defend the
- 11:29Speaker 4: first team defensive bit. I also don't like the way
- 11:32Speaker 4: they subbed out the first team defense in the middle
- 11:34Speaker 4: of that series.
- 11:35Speaker 1: That annoyed.
- 11:36Speaker 4: That annoyed the crap out of me, and I know
- 11:39Speaker 4: a lot of fans are annoyed bone that the first
- 11:41Speaker 4: team offense only got three you know, they didn't they
- 11:44Speaker 4: didn't get any more time than those nine plays. But
- 11:47Speaker 4: the thing that really bothered me was, dude, like they're competing,
- 11:51Speaker 4: like our first team defense is competing with Josh Allen like, yeah,
- 11:55Speaker 4: they're throwing haymakers, but our pass rush is getting after
- 11:58Speaker 4: him too, And I kind of wanted to see what.
- 12:00Speaker 1: Would happen the rest of that drive.
- 12:03Speaker 4: Right after the Gibson sack on third and fifteen that
- 12:06Speaker 4: would have forced a punt, but it was a face mask.
- 12:09Speaker 4: They then Devin Lloyd and the whole secondary come off.
- 12:14Speaker 1: That's weird, Like I didn't like that.
- 12:16Speaker 4: I would have liked to see the first team defense,
- 12:18Speaker 4: y'all keep competing, See if you can make another play
- 12:21Speaker 4: in the backfield and get off the field, you know,
- 12:22Speaker 4: holding to another field goal something like that.
- 12:24Speaker 3: Oh, on the you mentioned him multiple times, but on
- 12:26Speaker 3: the bright spots, I've already fallen in love with Jalen Phillips,
- 12:30Speaker 3: not only mac the the play the other day. If
- 12:33Speaker 3: you saw the piece before the game that WSOC did
- 12:37Speaker 3: on like who he is as a person and getting
- 12:39Speaker 3: to know Jalen Phillips, and he was out at the
- 12:42Speaker 3: Great Wolf Lodge last week with the kids playing basketball,
- 12:45Speaker 3: swimming the whole. It goes into what we talked about
- 12:48Speaker 3: a lot with Dan Morgan and identifying these players. Jalen
- 12:50Speaker 3: Phillips is another dude that is absolutely salt of the earth.
- 12:53Speaker 1: So I am.
- 12:54Speaker 3: I'm already a massive fan of Hand, not only as
- 12:56Speaker 3: a player, but I think this dude could be a
- 12:58Speaker 3: big time fan favorite here. It seems like a great
- 13:00Speaker 3: dude and he got after it.
- 13:02Speaker 5: Man.
- 13:03Speaker 4: And by the way, that third down play is an
- 13:05Speaker 4: example when people talk about, oh, he doesn't get enough sacks,
- 13:08Speaker 4: and I say that disruption is production that third round play.
- 13:11Speaker 4: First of all, most quarterbacks would have gone down. It's
- 13:14Speaker 4: Josh freaking Allen. The guy's an animal. He's the biggest
- 13:17Speaker 4: gigantic mammoth of a quarterback since Cam. But like you
- 13:21Speaker 4: got off the field, a third down pressure that forces
- 13:23Speaker 4: an incompletion.
- 13:25Speaker 1: It is a great play too.
- 13:27Speaker 3: And that's what I'm trying to say when I talk
- 13:29Speaker 3: about about Phillips Princely. Very big bounce back game from Princely.
- 13:33Speaker 3: So we'll talk about the good and the bad. There
- 13:35Speaker 3: was plenty of bad. We will talk about it here
- 13:39Speaker 3: on the show. I do want to mention a couple
- 13:41Speaker 3: of other things here, bone Man. In this first segment.
- 13:45Speaker 3: The Dallas Cowboy, the Dallas Cowboys. The Dallas Cowboys bone
- 13:48Speaker 3: Boys made a move last night. They signed Von Miller,
- 13:52Speaker 3: who was one of those free agent edges out there.
- 13:56Speaker 3: It looks like Zadarius Smith getting signed too. So some
- 13:59Speaker 3: of these free age edges that we're on the market.
- 14:01Speaker 4: Bone that we've been kind of talking about, they're starting
- 14:03Speaker 4: to get picked up. Von Miller, of course, is a
- 14:05Speaker 4: Texas kid, so he said it's a dream to play
- 14:09Speaker 4: for the Cowboys. He also had a couple of amazing quotes.
- 14:12Speaker 4: I can still walk in at eight or ten, eight
- 14:15Speaker 4: to ten sacks now, and that's just walking in. Then
- 14:18Speaker 4: he says, Bone, he is the best teammate in the
- 14:20Speaker 4: history of the National Football League.
- 14:21Speaker 1: Oh he was. He was very humble yesterday. Oh who
- 14:23Speaker 1: said that about him? Sam?
- 14:25Speaker 3: Talking about him for himself. It sounds very much like
- 14:28Speaker 3: something Fitty would say about himself. He fits in with
- 14:31Speaker 3: the Cowboys, doesn't he. They've been talking about the Super
- 14:34Speaker 3: Bowl all damn off season in The one thing that
- 14:38Speaker 3: I like about von Miller on the Dallas Cowboys is
- 14:41Speaker 3: he's a great teammate.
- 14:42Speaker 1: Per von Miller, Just ask him, he'll tell you.
- 14:46Speaker 2: Oh my trying to say I'm not a good teammate.
- 14:48Speaker 3: Didn't say that. But you would also be the first
- 14:50Speaker 3: to tell us you are a great teammate.
- 14:51Speaker 6: Well, we all have something that we got to brag
- 14:54Speaker 6: about somewhere. Oh, I'm the epitome.
- 14:57Speaker 1: Of the great here you go. See when you look up.
- 14:59Speaker 6: Teammate, there's a a picture of my face sitting right Scottie.
- 15:02Speaker 3: Pippenity is Phitty is very selfless. Pitty is very willing
- 15:08Speaker 3: to help. I will say that, But when you listen
- 15:11Speaker 3: to him on the air, he comes across as a delusional,
- 15:14Speaker 3: arrogant fool, you know what I mean. But I'm seriously
- 15:18Speaker 3: it at his heart, like he would help you do anything.
- 15:22Speaker 3: This isn't This isn't saying that you are a part
- 15:24Speaker 3: of that fan base now. But it's easy to see
- 15:27Speaker 3: of why you fitted so well to that, Dallas. Oh
- 15:30Speaker 3: not now you're past that. You moved on. But I
- 15:33Speaker 3: do see where there are elements there where. Yeah, you
- 15:36Speaker 3: it made a lot, It made a lot of sense.
- 15:38Speaker 1: Right, you're not wrong. Wrong.
- 15:42Speaker 6: I also, Mac, when I saw the news yesterday that
- 15:45Speaker 6: the Cowboys were signing Von Miller, I did think back
- 15:49Speaker 6: to like Cowboy Fiddy and was like, I begged for
- 15:51Speaker 6: Jerry to make this move a decade ago. How long
- 15:54Speaker 6: into the year when Dallas is underachieving, where von Miller
- 15:57Speaker 6: starts smoking, pot gets out of shape, and this this,
- 16:00Speaker 6: this is in horrible and in horrible fashion.
- 16:03Speaker 1: He's the greatest teammate ever. He would never let his
- 16:04Speaker 1: teammates down like this.
- 16:06Speaker 2: Never nothing for the Cowboys. They're not gonna win the division.
- 16:09Speaker 2: They might make the playoffs.
- 16:10Speaker 6: But you're making fun of the Bears and all their
- 16:13Speaker 6: their their pre their preseason talk.
- 16:15Speaker 2: Dax's we're talking out of his ass all off season.
- 16:17Speaker 4: Everybody shod he has been talking. So they're all talking
- 16:20Speaker 4: super Bowl. They're all like mini Jerry's. It's like, can
- 16:22Speaker 4: you make the playoffs?
- 16:23Speaker 2: The winner?
- 16:24Speaker 6: Hey make the NFC title game first since nineteen ninety six.
- 16:28Speaker 3: Seriously, man, any please don't talk about my minute Jerry there?
- 16:31Speaker 6: All right?
- 16:31Speaker 3: Please do we have the right to talk about anybody's
- 16:33Speaker 3: football team after what happened on Saturday?
- 16:35Speaker 1: Though, I was so prepared to.
- 16:38Speaker 4: Come in here after Friday night and mock the Falcons
- 16:40Speaker 4: and tuah him fumbling a snap, him telling the whole
- 16:44Speaker 4: world after the game after two scoreless drives, I gotta
- 16:47Speaker 4: be better.
- 16:47Speaker 1: I was terrible.
- 16:49Speaker 3: Uh.
- 16:49Speaker 4: I was gonna laugh at the fact that Pennix there's
- 16:51Speaker 4: now this mean Bone of Pennick stand there behind him
- 16:54Speaker 4: after that rough first series, pointing at him like, man,
- 16:57Speaker 4: this guy sucks nothing he like, but I can because
- 17:00Speaker 4: the Panthers went out there and said, we will see
- 17:02Speaker 4: your Dodo performance. I do want to mention this though, Cowboys,
- 17:06Speaker 4: you can have von Miller because the Hornets have themselves
- 17:09Speaker 4: some Dennis Shrewder ladies and gentlemen. A guy that was
- 17:11Speaker 4: definitely mentioned Bone on this show is a backup point
- 17:14Speaker 4: guard possibility. Seemed like he was a polarizing mention on
- 17:18Speaker 4: the show with the listeners. Some like the idea, some didn't. Well,
- 17:22Speaker 4: now we're gonna find out. Do you like the idea?
- 17:24Speaker 4: Because the Hornets traded Trey Man for him on Friday
- 17:29Speaker 4: Afternoon with Cleveland. It saves Cleveland about seven million dollars
- 17:33Speaker 4: in salary this year. That's what they're looking to do.
- 17:36Speaker 3: As for us, we're looking to get a backup point
- 17:39Speaker 3: guard so we don't have to play sea on there,
- 17:41Speaker 3: and so you can ease Christian Anderson in.
- 17:44Speaker 4: So I think it's a solid move. I'm not gonna
- 17:46Speaker 4: act Bone like he's spectacular. He's not a great shooter.
- 17:50Speaker 4: Some of the advanced metrics are not good.
- 17:52Speaker 3: I will say this, he will get down into stance
- 17:55Speaker 3: and defend you.
- 17:56Speaker 1: Helly, I do like that about him. You know, would
- 17:59Speaker 1: you say.
- 17:59Speaker 3: This move was very shrewd. It is a polarizing move, Mackers.
- 18:06Speaker 3: I liked it a lot. I think it was a
- 18:08Speaker 3: major need entering the season. They could not go in
- 18:11Speaker 3: to the beginning of the year with that backup point
- 18:14Speaker 3: guard situation. As such, He's a guy that always seems
- 18:18Speaker 3: to produce. He's the second most or he is he
- 18:21Speaker 3: is he tied? Or is he the second most traded
- 18:23Speaker 3: guy an NBA history, whatever that numbers. I think he's
- 18:26Speaker 3: now tied. He should have been trading nine times. This
- 18:29Speaker 3: is the Hornets are his twelve team. Yes, but yet
- 18:31Speaker 3: he's always He's always productive. I don't know if he
- 18:33Speaker 3: wears out as welcome or as his contract is tradable,
- 18:36Speaker 3: but I will say this, back that backup guard duo
- 18:40Speaker 3: of Dennis Shrewder and Grayson Allen is going to absolutely
- 18:44Speaker 3: annoy the hell out of opponents.
- 18:45Speaker 1: There you go, baby, I like, how many.
- 18:47Speaker 3: Scrubs are they gonna get us involved in? I don't know,
- 18:50Speaker 3: but I can't wait for that tag team right there.
- 18:51Speaker 3: Oh my god, you talk about annoying people. Grayson Andtruder
- 18:54Speaker 3: together give me all that.
- 18:55Speaker 2: I like it.
- 18:56Speaker 3: Let's bother some folks. Let's bother some folks. Yeah, it
- 18:59Speaker 3: felt like if they want to win this year, and
- 19:03Speaker 3: I'm not saying like, you know, you know, win a championship,
- 19:06Speaker 3: but if they truly do care about this year, it
- 19:10Speaker 3: feels like something they had to do is get a
- 19:12Speaker 3: veteran back up, because seon, we know how that works.
- 19:16Speaker 3: Christian Anderson did not look like he's ready. They could
- 19:18Speaker 3: even send him to Greensboro for a while possibly now.
- 19:21Speaker 3: And what did what did Charles Lee say to us
- 19:24Speaker 3: bone that went a bit viral on Friday when he
- 19:28Speaker 3: was in here with us. I agree with Kobe White,
- 19:31Speaker 3: we're a better team with Alamelomo, we're a better team.
- 19:36Speaker 3: So if you are serious about backing that up, you
- 19:40Speaker 3: had to go out and get it, get a veteran
- 19:42Speaker 3: back up. So anyway, we'll talk about that. We'll have
- 19:45Speaker 3: a discussion at some point this week about the roster also,
- 19:48Speaker 3: and how do they manage this thing. They've got some
- 19:50Speaker 3: moves to make. Deir Mack is it is pat Conaton?
- 19:54Speaker 5: Uh?
- 19:54Speaker 1: Is he going to be on the way out?
- 19:55Speaker 3: Because even though it was a trade, they still have
- 19:57Speaker 3: how many roster spots open up here? They they have to.
- 20:00Speaker 3: They got a lot of guys that can play also
- 20:03Speaker 3: or on paper, it could be part of the rotation
- 20:05Speaker 3: they have to get rid of at least one, if
- 20:07Speaker 3: not two. I'm not sure that. I know a lot
- 20:09Speaker 3: of people said Pat Connaton might be the contract that's easiest.
- 20:12Speaker 3: But that's Patty claps man. I know as the teammate
- 20:15Speaker 3: of the year last year, baby, I know, I know.
- 20:17Speaker 3: When we talked about great teammates, we recapped the rest
- 20:20Speaker 3: of the sport. Like Von Miller, we recapped the rest
- 20:23Speaker 3: of the sports weekend FC wins, Joey Logato getting hot
- 20:27Speaker 3: at the right time. We've got college football news, a
- 20:30Speaker 3: North Carolina, South Carolina, and Clemson, and a familiar face
- 20:34Speaker 3: returns to the state hoops program, Very familiar Sports Radio
- 20:38Speaker 3: ninety two seven WFNZ.
- 20:55Speaker 7: Man, I got so much respect for that place. First
- 20:57Speaker 7: of all, I mean, it's one of the great places
- 21:00Speaker 7: college football play a football game. Man. They they they're
- 21:05Speaker 7: own you from the time you land that at the airport,
- 21:08Speaker 7: I mean it is. And then a night game on
- 21:10Speaker 7: top of it, there's a little juice and in that lemonade,
- 21:14Speaker 7: they they are there, they're waiting on you. So it's
- 21:17Speaker 7: it's awesome. It's one of the again, one of the
- 21:19Speaker 7: great places to play a game. Lane's done an unbelievable job.
- 21:22Speaker 7: I mean, they got they got, they got dudes for dudes,
- 21:25Speaker 7: for dudes. They're all over the place. So be a
- 21:28Speaker 7: be a fun, fun way to kick it off.
- 21:30Speaker 2: Get o Tiger.
- 21:32Speaker 1: There you go.
- 21:32Speaker 4: That is UH Dabo Sweeney talking about UH night game
- 21:37Speaker 4: in Death Valley Week one and the juice bow, the
- 21:40Speaker 4: juice and the lemonade down there for the LSU fans,
- 21:45Speaker 4: all right, you got a lot if Fitny's got a
- 21:48Speaker 4: got arsenal over, there doesn't new for Clemson.
- 21:49Speaker 3: For Clemson talk, You've got sound effects, We've got juice
- 21:52Speaker 3: in lebanade.
- 21:53Speaker 1: We got a lot going on here on a Monday.
- 21:55Speaker 1: Oh man.
- 21:55Speaker 4: Unfortunately, Clemson uh did suffer an injury to a kid.
- 21:59Speaker 4: But there's a freshman that was making some waves by
- 22:04Speaker 4: all accounts in preseason camp, safety Polo Anderson tore his
- 22:07Speaker 4: ACL and he is out for the season. So you're
- 22:13Speaker 4: getting to this point, you're singing the NFL bone. Obviously,
- 22:15Speaker 4: we saw in the Panthers very early, but you're starting
- 22:18Speaker 4: to see it all unfortunately all around the NFL now
- 22:22Speaker 4: with guys dropping. Now you're starting to see it in
- 22:25Speaker 4: college football. So that was certainly that was certainly not
- 22:30Speaker 4: ideal for the Clemson Tigers. And also in the pal
- 22:34Speaker 4: Meadow State, you had two wide receiver injuries, guys that
- 22:38Speaker 4: are done for the season as well. Jaden Gibson is
- 22:41Speaker 4: one of them. But Jaden Sellers, Lenoris's brother, who definitely
- 22:47Speaker 4: flash showed some stuff last year. I thought it could
- 22:49Speaker 4: make a jump this year. So he's out for the season.
- 22:53Speaker 4: So this is an ideal news for either team.
- 22:55Speaker 3: Oh no, and on the South Carolina front, Sellers, yeah,
- 22:59Speaker 3: he was thought to be a much bigger factor this year.
- 23:04Speaker 3: He's a big reason why his brother is still the
- 23:06Speaker 3: quarterback there to play another season with them.
- 23:09Speaker 1: What they can they can make do.
- 23:11Speaker 3: Certainly they've got Nitro Tuggle, great name, the transfer from
- 23:15Speaker 3: Perdue obviously, Nick Harbor, Mazio been and Donovan Murph a sophomore,
- 23:19Speaker 3: was a pretty big recruit for them year ago. But
- 23:22Speaker 3: certainly Sellers completed that room there and then Gibson a
- 23:27Speaker 3: red shirt freshman. So some young guys that are the
- 23:30Speaker 3: future of that wide receiver spot. Aren't gonna be able
- 23:33Speaker 3: to get in there this year again more playing time? Yeah,
- 23:36Speaker 3: so that sucks. And then I saw the tar Heel
- 23:38Speaker 3: twenty four to seven report. Fitty, have you been hearing
- 23:41Speaker 3: that Miles O'Neil has been the best quarterback because Tarhill
- 23:45Speaker 3: twenty four to seven is reporting that he is kind
- 23:48Speaker 3: of seen as the front runner right now for that
- 23:50Speaker 3: Tar Heel starting job even over the Wisconsin transfer. Edwards,
- 23:55Speaker 3: are you are you feeling to say? Are you hearing
- 23:57Speaker 3: the same sort of stuff?
- 23:58Speaker 4: Yeah?
- 23:59Speaker 2: It seems like this is a battle that's neck and neck.
- 24:01Speaker 6: But depending on who you read, Like some days inside Carolina,
- 24:05Speaker 6: we'll tell you it's Billy Edwards who might will be
- 24:07Speaker 6: the starter. The other day, you know, depending Ontario twenty
- 24:10Speaker 6: four to seven, it could be Miles O'Neil. I've thought
- 24:14Speaker 6: all along both playing the opener against TCU not the
- 24:17Speaker 6: ideal situation much for that one quarterback, but everything projecting
- 24:22Speaker 6: for the long term MAC is that this will be
- 24:24Speaker 6: Miles O'Neill's team at some point because he has a
- 24:27Speaker 6: higher upside with his ability to push the football vertically
- 24:30Speaker 6: down on the field.
- 24:31Speaker 2: It's just win.
- 24:32Speaker 6: Do they what do they make that make that a move?
- 24:36Speaker 6: They have two early buys that could really dictate if
- 24:38Speaker 6: they make that move before October.
- 24:40Speaker 3: Now, Lord, O'Neil come from Ford A and M's right, Lord,
- 24:43Speaker 3: So I mean so they both played you know, power
- 24:46Speaker 3: for ball.
- 24:46Speaker 4: They both you know, O'Neil was a pretty big recruit. Right,
- 24:50Speaker 4: here's a former four star, Yeah, four star recruit.
- 24:53Speaker 6: And don't look at it now, but the the freshman
- 24:55Speaker 6: Travis Burgess who's coming off an ac injury last year, Mack.
- 24:59Speaker 6: If if this thing gets sideways and they're like two
- 25:02Speaker 6: and six, there's a chance he could play literalier because
- 25:05Speaker 6: they think he's the future of the room. So there's
- 25:09Speaker 6: a potential that whoever's playing quarterback in the opener might
- 25:13Speaker 6: be you know, QB three in November.
- 25:16Speaker 3: I do I know tar Heel fans say, tell us, well,
- 25:20Speaker 3: some of us join in the negativity, but some of
- 25:22Speaker 3: y'all have said, man, everything's negative with a football I'm
- 25:26Speaker 3: just tired of it.
- 25:26Speaker 1: Whatever.
- 25:27Speaker 3: So that's why we put on the director of Tarheo
- 25:29Speaker 3: Football positivity complainer in chief at the end of the
- 25:32Speaker 3: show to make his case.
- 25:33Speaker 1: Bonent.
- 25:34Speaker 4: But like I'm sorry, I'm gonna do it again. My
- 25:36Speaker 4: feeling is their quarterback situation is one where it's going
- 25:41Speaker 4: to be multiple guys, like, and I'm not saying, I
- 25:44Speaker 4: don't know if I mean that in a good way,
- 25:45Speaker 4: right bone, Like, I don't know if they have a guy.
- 25:48Speaker 5: Now.
- 25:49Speaker 4: I do love Petrino. He is a hell of an
- 25:51Speaker 4: offensive coach, so it's a positive for them. But I
- 25:55Speaker 4: do wonder if it's this guy has a job for
- 25:57Speaker 4: a few games. Oh he had a bad game. Now
- 26:00Speaker 4: this dude's in, like Pitty said, then maybe it's the freshman.
- 26:03Speaker 4: So I hope not.
- 26:05Speaker 1: I hope somebody can grab that job and play well
- 26:07Speaker 1: enough to keep it.
- 26:07Speaker 3: Yeah, it might be half to half for now, like
- 26:09Speaker 3: Pitty's talking about, we may we may see one guy
- 26:12Speaker 3: in the first quarter and a different guy may finish
- 26:14Speaker 3: the game.
- 26:15Speaker 1: They're just gonna ride the hot hand. I do believe Matt.
- 26:18Speaker 3: We did have some news yesterday, but the tweet was
- 26:21Speaker 3: deleted because they said it's unconfirmed. But they're still gonna
- 26:25Speaker 3: stand by what they're saying, but they're gonna wait till
- 26:27Speaker 3: it's official to tweet it again. It was an ECU
- 26:29Speaker 3: podcast that tweeted out their hearing that it'll be ecu
- 26:34Speaker 3: app Week zero next season at the Bank to start
- 26:38Speaker 3: the football season. But then they took it down and
- 26:40Speaker 3: said they're hearing that, but it's not official. But it's unconfirmed,
- 26:44Speaker 3: but there's there's rumors out there ecu app Week zero
- 26:49Speaker 3: at the Bank next year.
- 26:50Speaker 4: We'll see how that would be cool, man, that'd be
- 26:52Speaker 4: very cool. I love the Week zero teams in the
- 26:54Speaker 4: local games. We got a couple this year.
- 26:56Speaker 3: I love it being in Charlotte, So I hope that
- 26:59Speaker 3: ends up being true, no doubt about it. By the
- 27:01Speaker 3: way to tomorrow on the show.
- 27:03Speaker 4: But and we'll have something we're overreacting to the Panthers
- 27:05Speaker 4: bills today. Tomorrow we can overreact to the Apeople because
- 27:09Speaker 4: that comes out at noon today for college football, so
- 27:12Speaker 4: we can all overreact to that on tomorrow's show.
- 27:16Speaker 3: We're also gonna have Fred Siege on tomorrow. Mac He
- 27:19Speaker 3: is the creator of a very popular sports website, Freezing
- 27:23Speaker 3: Cold Takes. They have a new book out on the
- 27:25Speaker 3: worst college football takes of all time. And immediately mag
- 27:29Speaker 3: once I reached out of friend yesterday, he gave me
- 27:31Speaker 3: a follow because I think he realized, oh, there's so
- 27:34Speaker 3: much material with these guys on the Mack and Bone.
- 27:36Speaker 4: I'm glad they hadn't found us yet. Man, we're saved
- 27:38Speaker 4: so far. But yeah, we could give you a whole
- 27:41Speaker 4: other chapter of your book if you're paying attention.
- 27:44Speaker 3: My favorite was the Beno Cook audio that they tweeted
- 27:46Speaker 3: yesterday where Beno Cook in nineteen ninety three said, I
- 27:49Speaker 3: guarantee you Ron Paulus will win two Heisman Trophies, that
- 27:53Speaker 3: Notre Dame and the Fighting Iris will win multiple national
- 27:57Speaker 3: titles with Ron Pollis.
- 28:00Speaker 1: Was a classic. Man, was it two or three? I believe?
- 28:02Speaker 1: Was it? You said totally two? Okay? What as man as?
- 28:04Speaker 2: I thought?
- 28:05Speaker 3: I thought he said three Heismen? But uh yeah, that's
- 28:07Speaker 3: that's that's an all timer right there.
- 28:09Speaker 4: Man, all right, other college football thing or college sports
- 28:14Speaker 4: thing real quick, and then I want to get to
- 28:16Speaker 4: Saturday night. Saturday, we had a little f C at
- 28:18Speaker 4: the bank, We had a little Richmond in the Cup series.
- 28:21Speaker 4: Uh but ven Allen Lubin is back at NC State.
- 28:26Speaker 4: Come on, State fans, loub is that a thing that
- 28:31Speaker 4: should be a thing. Don't don't go outside and yell
- 28:34Speaker 4: out of the street.
- 28:35Speaker 3: Yeah, don't go yell that randomly though, y'all a just
- 28:37Speaker 3: oil change place or basketball games?
- 28:40Speaker 1: You want to yell loubout you were else? I worry
- 28:43Speaker 1: about you.
- 28:43Speaker 4: I saw we had a State fan asking us, our
- 28:45Speaker 4: guy Kyle, asking us how we should feel about this,
- 28:51Speaker 4: and yeah, solid solid big man thirteen and six last year,
- 28:57Speaker 4: not acting like they're getting Patrick Ewing at Georgetown back here,
- 28:59Speaker 4: but good solid veteran players.
- 29:02Speaker 1: So I do uh, I like it. I like it
- 29:05Speaker 1: for Steak.
- 29:06Speaker 3: Will be a very interesting year for State basketball because
- 29:10Speaker 3: while they've added a lot of pieces, it's a new
- 29:12Speaker 3: head coach. Someone the other day from one of the
- 29:14Speaker 3: basketball sites that NC State's going to be sneaky good
- 29:18Speaker 3: this year. But it's hard to read that yet because
- 29:20Speaker 3: there is a lot of unknowns on that roster of
- 29:22Speaker 3: guys that we simply haven't seen play yet in the
- 29:24Speaker 3: AC State. Not Lubin, but guys like Hammin that they've taught.
- 29:28Speaker 3: So to me, that can go either way.
- 29:30Speaker 1: For I don't.
- 29:30Speaker 3: I have no idea how to judge them in Gaines
- 29:32Speaker 3: first year right now, no doubt, no doubt. All right,
- 29:34Speaker 3: so Saturday night, Bone.
- 29:36Speaker 2: Oh you're not gonna mention the UNC basketball news?
- 29:38Speaker 3: Okay, what's that Cata is in America? Is that the news?
- 29:44Speaker 6: That was a big deal over the weekend. Matt Klass
- 29:46Speaker 6: has started that they had to get him here. He
- 29:48Speaker 6: got a cut, you finally got his visa accepted.
- 29:51Speaker 2: So he is here. And it was at Sutton's yesterday
- 29:55Speaker 2: in Chapel.
- 29:55Speaker 6: Hill, less than twenty four hours already dining out of
- 29:58Speaker 6: Franklin Street.
- 29:59Speaker 1: That's big news. Where he ate?
- 30:00Speaker 2: Do you know?
- 30:01Speaker 1: He's his order?
- 30:02Speaker 2: I did not say that order. Hopefully it wasn't chicken
- 30:04Speaker 2: and waffles. That's usually my coach. I'm sorry that his
- 30:08Speaker 2: where he ate?
- 30:08Speaker 5: Did?
- 30:08Speaker 1: He was not on the rundown today. I'm sorry.
- 30:10Speaker 2: I'm just typical wolf pack back behavior bone. He doesn't
- 30:13Speaker 2: give the two just to carry the state. Duke can care.
- 30:16Speaker 1: Y'all signed him. I figured he was gonna play basketball
- 30:18Speaker 1: for you. I wasn't.
- 30:19Speaker 4: I only tracked visas of Charlotte f C signings, all right, that's.
- 30:23Speaker 1: The only visa tracking I do.
- 30:24Speaker 4: You can handle the international basketball player visa signings. Which, oh,
- 30:29Speaker 4: by the way, I think I was trying to segue
- 30:31Speaker 4: to Charlotte f C.
- 30:32Speaker 3: I think I just did it for a second time. Sorry,
- 30:35Speaker 3: Charlotte f C.
- 30:36Speaker 4: Three great teammate though, bone great teammate there completely holding
- 30:40Speaker 4: up the show. We would never bone it. I would
- 30:42Speaker 4: never hold up the show. Fitting was something that would
- 30:45Speaker 4: you know what I mean, it was something that doesn't apply.
- 30:46Speaker 3: I would never just reference aim being no cook take
- 30:49Speaker 3: from thirty three years ago.
- 30:51Speaker 1: No, I guess that's good news fitting.
- 30:52Speaker 3: I hadn't been following the situation, but if they kind
- 30:54Speaker 3: of felt like they had to get him in, I
- 30:56Speaker 3: think it. You know, Biden, we see that for Deadline.
- 30:59Speaker 3: I'm glad they got him for your podcast. Man, That's
- 31:01Speaker 3: your Stuff.

- 31:09Speaker 4: to eat? Okay, all right, anyway, let's go to Charlotte
- 31:12Speaker 4: f C three to one win on on Saturday against Columbus.
- 31:17Speaker 4: Don't look now, Charlotte FC is getting Maxi up to speed.
- 31:22Speaker 4: You can tell bone, especially in that humidity less on
- 31:25Speaker 4: Saturday night.
- 31:26Speaker 1: You can tell. Fitness wise, he's still working progress.
- 31:29Speaker 4: Hadn't played since May, but he played forty five minutes
- 31:33Speaker 4: this time twenty before, so he's ramping his way up
- 31:36Speaker 4: he clearly, you know, is making an impact. That that
- 31:41Speaker 4: third goal that they got in a three to one win.
- 31:43Speaker 4: The great team move started with him cutting inside, beating
- 31:46Speaker 4: his man, drawing more defenders, laying it off to bl
- 31:49Speaker 4: and then they were off and then Pep unselfish pass
- 31:53Speaker 4: will drop off by a loco and then Pep finished
- 31:55Speaker 4: it for an insurance goal. Charlotte scored the Bronico goalbone
- 32:00Speaker 4: Uh from a great pass from Schneg in twenty nine seconds.
- 32:04Speaker 4: They then scored another one before the nine minute mark.
- 32:07Speaker 4: So they jumped out quick about it, drew the pen
- 32:10Speaker 4: put the penalty in, so.
- 32:13Speaker 1: Nice win.
- 32:14Speaker 3: Listen, they didn't have much of the ball, I think
- 32:16Speaker 3: they I think it was you know, thirty percent procession.
- 32:19Speaker 3: They allowed twenty eight shots, but not many dangerous ones
- 32:24Speaker 3: like Charlotte f C. Bone I think had like eight
- 32:26Speaker 3: shots and had five big chances like so they were
- 32:29Speaker 3: creating good chances Columbus. It was a lot of block shots,
- 32:33Speaker 3: a lot of shocks from outside the box. So I
- 32:36Speaker 3: like the way they played. They defend it as a
- 32:38Speaker 3: team on Saturday, scored so fast. I don't know if
- 32:40Speaker 3: you're Willie p was in the building yet, That's how
- 32:42Speaker 3: quickly FC scored the other day. I mean mine, you
- 32:44Speaker 3: talk about uh, you talk about getting things started early,
- 32:49Speaker 3: but I was barely my eyes were on the screen yet.
- 32:51Speaker 3: Uh and it was one nothing you mentioned. Uh you
- 32:54Speaker 3: know the star starting to percolate here, that East is
- 32:57Speaker 3: all jammed up, man from you know, I go on down.
- 33:00Speaker 3: Chicago's in third with thirty two points and all the
- 33:03Speaker 3: way to DC United at nine there's an eight point different.
- 33:06Speaker 3: Charlotte right now is just four points behind third with Chicago.
- 33:11Speaker 3: So they've really uh come out well here after the
- 33:14Speaker 3: break and they find themselves right there in the middle
- 33:17Speaker 3: of a jammed up East.
- 33:18Speaker 4: Yeah, and and Dean's Dean kind of intimated that he
- 33:21Speaker 4: believes another signing is coming to replace Vargas. It does
- 33:25Speaker 4: feel like about a stand.
- 33:26Speaker 3: But I do think there's been an uptick in the
- 33:27Speaker 3: way Abata has been playing.
- 33:29Speaker 1: I think that's been a good sign if.
- 33:31Speaker 3: That give a I know, sometimes we try to come
- 33:34Speaker 3: up with calls for Willie p uh Abada's a he's
- 33:37Speaker 3: got about a boom, right, that's what he says for
- 33:39Speaker 3: about is that? Yeah, the other day in my head
- 33:42Speaker 3: one he hit that pen. I said, what a shot
- 33:45Speaker 3: of bayabatta. You want to pass that along the will
- 33:49Speaker 3: Did you pass it along? Later this week on Wednesday
- 33:51Speaker 3: when we talked to you like a shot you gotta
- 33:55Speaker 3: put your Willie spin on it though you end you
- 33:57Speaker 3: give me a little water shot of Byabata.
- 33:59Speaker 2: Oh what a shot by about you?
- 34:02Speaker 1: By about it? You gotta tell you what to try
- 34:07Speaker 1: to get?
- 34:07Speaker 2: What a shut up about yo? I actually I have
- 34:14Speaker 2: a Willie take.
- 34:15Speaker 6: Did you were you listening to the the the broadcast
- 34:18Speaker 6: on Saturday with the Apple TV footage. I thought our
- 34:21Speaker 6: guy was subdued on on Saturday night. I thought he
- 34:24Speaker 6: was a little low tepolgic, And really it was because
- 34:28Speaker 6: I think he thought doom was coming, because there was
- 34:31Speaker 6: a part there in that second half where it felt
- 34:32Speaker 6: like they were going to give up the equalizer and
- 34:34Speaker 6: then they were able to get up and they're going
- 34:36Speaker 6: to get to the three one victory.
- 34:38Speaker 2: But I thought, Willy p that.
- 34:40Speaker 4: Was kind of a I didn't notice any subdued. I
- 34:42Speaker 4: didn't notice any subdue. Well we will we will hear
- 34:44Speaker 4: first elves. We were listening to the gold calls. Matter
- 34:47Speaker 4: of fact, the one with Bronica. We got to hear
- 34:49Speaker 4: here in the next few minutes, we'll do we'll do it.
- 34:51Speaker 4: We'll do it in sounds of the weekend. But that
- 34:53Speaker 4: must be that must be listened to because that is
- 34:57Speaker 4: his favorite. That just b FF on the team. And
- 35:01Speaker 4: all right, let's real quick. Do you want to mention
- 35:03Speaker 4: Joey Logano don't look now toyotas the Toyota Racing Series
- 35:07Speaker 4: bone they got company. Joey Logano and Fitty actually made
- 35:12Speaker 4: this point Saturday off the air in a break in
- 35:14Speaker 4: our pregame show that these Fords are starting to get
- 35:17Speaker 4: a little racing.
- 35:17Speaker 1: It's not just Blainey. You and you saw it.
- 35:20Speaker 4: You saw it with Logano winning his second race in
- 35:23Speaker 4: four races at Richmond on Saturday. You saw it with
- 35:27Speaker 4: Austin Sindrick, the other Penske car running third. The Ford's
- 35:30Speaker 4: starting to try to get themselves in the mix there.
- 35:33Speaker 4: The Hendrick cars are still just kind of ah, you
- 35:36Speaker 4: know what I mean, not ten though, not enough speed
- 35:40Speaker 4: to really contend to win. It's kind of like just point.
- 35:43Speaker 4: They're gonna have to try to points their way, you know,
- 35:45Speaker 4: in the postseason and not and not have any bad luck,
- 35:48Speaker 4: which for Kyle Larson feels impossible. But anyway, that Uhlegano
- 35:54Speaker 4: and those boys are getting We've seen it before, Fitty,
- 35:57Speaker 4: we seen it before where they get hot late in
- 35:59Speaker 4: the season in annoys, a crap out everybody and they
- 36:01Speaker 4: win a championship.
- 36:02Speaker 3: He was just on the cut line, it seems like
- 36:03Speaker 3: not long ago. Now he's ninth in the standings.
- 36:05Speaker 6: Yeah, he's three hundred points behind Denny Hamlin who leaves.
- 36:08Speaker 6: But we're already talking about could he be a championship
- 36:11Speaker 6: contender as we get closer and.
- 36:12Speaker 2: Closer to the chase.
- 36:13Speaker 6: When it was also mac RFK Racing qualified strong, So
- 36:17Speaker 6: it's not just you know, you got Penske and RFK.
- 36:21Speaker 6: But it's good that it's not just Toyota's dominating week
- 36:24Speaker 6: in week out. I just wish that our Chevy s
- 36:27Speaker 6: that Hendrick Muschports had more competing type speed Like Cha
- 36:30Speaker 6: Selliott was a top five car but never once threatened
- 36:34Speaker 6: to win the race. Yeah, and then you're and your
- 36:36Speaker 6: guy Larson, but he did win the Iowa Nationals.
- 36:39Speaker 1: Is that not insane?
- 36:40Speaker 2: I'm like too at the two fifteen in the morning.
- 36:42Speaker 4: That's that's freaking insane. And it's why I love him
- 36:45Speaker 4: because he's just what they call a racers racer. This
- 36:47Speaker 4: dude will just race anything anywhere, and he still does
- 36:50Speaker 4: so much of a sprint car racing, which is his background. Yeah,
- 36:53Speaker 4: because at the Knoxville National Sprint Car race at Iowa, Bone,
- 36:56Speaker 4: because he had a three hour rain delay, he was
- 36:59Speaker 4: able to finish with a top ten at Richmond and
- 37:05Speaker 4: then fly to Iowa and still competed that race against
- 37:10Speaker 4: the spring car regulars and beat them all.
- 37:13Speaker 1: That's amazing.
- 37:14Speaker 3: I can't even do the round I can't even do
- 37:16Speaker 3: the round about in my neighborhood without when I'm tired.
- 37:20Speaker 4: Wrong, Bone wanted a gold gold star for the rally
- 37:23Speaker 4: trip back and forth.
- 37:24Speaker 1: Imagine this. Imagine if Bone did this.
- 37:27Speaker 3: Logano also to the points thing I was mentioning only
- 37:31Speaker 3: one point behind Larson right now. That's uh, that's happened
- 37:33Speaker 3: rather quickly here in the last couple of weeks. That'll
- 37:35Speaker 3: that'll do it made me catching your guy, Chase, ell
- 37:37Speaker 3: you at some point, FITTI, he's not that far behind
- 37:39Speaker 3: him right now either.
- 37:41Speaker 1: When when when.
- 37:42Speaker 3: The five car Bone has six straight weeks of horrendous luck,
- 37:46Speaker 3: that'll happen.
- 37:46Speaker 1: That'll happen, that is true.
- 37:48Speaker 3: When we come back here on the Mack and Bone
- 37:50Speaker 3: show It Sounds of the weekend. You're gonna hear from
- 37:52Speaker 3: Rice former quarterback Cam Newton with another honest admission about
- 37:57Speaker 3: his career. Kurt Signetti on why can't the Notre name series?
- 38:01Speaker 3: And you have to hear Kylie Kelsey talk about her
- 38:05Speaker 3: courting of her husband back in the day.
- 38:07Speaker 1: Don't miss that. Sports Radio ninety two seven WFNZ.
- 38:23Speaker 3: Bottle upside of the area now back away from goal
- 38:26Speaker 3: for David Steak.
- 38:26Speaker 1: Shnek threw ball toward the Brondigo.
- 38:28Speaker 2: Looked like you might have been off side.
- 38:29Speaker 1: Its cards.
- 38:34Speaker 2: The all wont count for the bear.
- 38:37Speaker 8: Brad Prodigo dust the summer a routine.
- 38:40Speaker 6: In saw the area and the crowd off and running.
- 38:43Speaker 1: Thanks to the bear.
- 38:46Speaker 3: I think it's nine point eight Mickeys. I don't know
- 38:48Speaker 3: what Fitty's talking about. Willy wasn't into it, baby, I
- 38:51Speaker 3: said to the second half eight.
- 38:52Speaker 1: Mickey's right there.
- 38:54Speaker 2: Second half Willie I had I thought he was kind of.
- 38:57Speaker 3: I mean we were we were without the ball for like,
- 39:01Speaker 3: I don't know, five minutes at a time in that half.
- 39:04Speaker 4: But anyway, they get the three to one win. They're
- 39:07Speaker 4: up to fifth. Willie Pete deserves all the love. I
- 39:09Speaker 4: don't care what Fitty says. That is the way he
- 39:13Speaker 4: brings it on a Mayor goal. Brett Bronico's got two
- 39:15Speaker 4: goals here in the last I don't know, three or
- 39:17Speaker 4: four games.
- 39:19Speaker 3: So I don't think there's anything in life that excites
- 39:22Speaker 3: Willie more than a Bronicco goal. Noting is you know,
- 39:26Speaker 3: I'm sure he's happy in marriage, and he should be,
- 39:28Speaker 3: but I don't. I don't know if there's anything in
- 39:30Speaker 3: marriage that makes us happy as a Bronco will wedding
- 39:32Speaker 3: day or Bronco scoring within the first thirty seconds of
- 39:36Speaker 3: a match like you did on Saturday, very close.
- 39:39Speaker 1: Very close. That goal happens so quick.
- 39:41Speaker 3: You talk about Tessa, not Willie's voice immediately during a game,
- 39:44Speaker 3: my war My guy didn't even get warmed up in
- 39:45Speaker 3: the game.
- 39:46Speaker 1: No, he was still throw.
- 39:47Speaker 3: Coating, he was still ready to take it to the
- 39:50Speaker 3: to the Mickey stratosphere. All right, let's do sounds of
- 39:54Speaker 3: the weekend, let's bounce around, let's switch you here. If
- 39:56Speaker 3: people said, including Cam Newton's been very honest bout about
- 40:00Speaker 3: things he regrets from his career, including with the Panthers.
- 40:05Speaker 3: So he's got another honest admission and Kurt Signetti. I
- 40:09Speaker 3: like Kurt Signetti a lot. This whole Notre Dame schedule stuff.
- 40:12Speaker 3: I'm not necessarily on Kurt Signetti's side here, But let's
- 40:15Speaker 3: start with Bryce Young, who is being ripped on the
- 40:20Speaker 3: text line this morning. Bone like he just lost in
- 40:23Speaker 3: week one of the regular season. Bryce Young talking about
- 40:28Speaker 3: the fact that we've got to We've got a big
- 40:30Speaker 3: week with Jacksonville coming up, right, They'll have a Wednesday practice,
- 40:33Speaker 3: joint practice in Jacksonville, and he says, we got to
- 40:36Speaker 3: work on that line of scrimmage being better.
- 40:38Speaker 1: You know, the Lion scrimmage coach talk about in here.
- 40:41Speaker 3: You know, we all want to do a very job,
- 40:42Speaker 3: myself including you know, we all have a part in
- 40:45Speaker 3: the run game getting that work in Obviously, we want
- 40:48Speaker 3: to give grab opportunity to get that first first down
- 40:50Speaker 3: to can start.
- 40:51Speaker 1: Rolling when we got to them. So we all just
- 40:53Speaker 1: take ownership in mata.
- 40:55Speaker 5: We all are.
- 40:56Speaker 1: Some guys are looking in here. I want to do better.
- 40:58Speaker 1: I want to be better, So we're gonna.
- 41:01Speaker 3: I know, Macdad, it wasn't the full offensive line. But
- 41:04Speaker 3: also keep in mind too that this offensive line, while
- 41:07Speaker 3: I think it can be good. They're all outside of
- 41:11Speaker 3: the guards who have been injured here and there, especially Hunt,
- 41:15Speaker 3: they're all new to each other, right, yeah, Walker, he's new,
- 41:19Speaker 3: the center's new. Freeling's new on the other side. So
- 41:22Speaker 3: it's gonna take a little bit of time here. I
- 41:24Speaker 3: think for this particular five man group, that should be
- 41:27Speaker 3: the starters when they're all in there, to Joe a
- 41:29Speaker 3: little bit as well, and then I think, just throw
- 41:31Speaker 3: all these guys in there, and all of a sudden
- 41:32Speaker 3: it works like that.
- 41:33Speaker 4: Well, and then that point too, like who are the anchors?
- 41:36Speaker 4: Who are the guys you can count on. They're supposed
- 41:38Speaker 4: to be hunting Lewis. So you take both those guys out,
- 41:41Speaker 4: put Brady c in, put Zavala in, and it is
- 41:45Speaker 4: a lot of newness. And it showed, man, listen, we
- 41:48Speaker 4: got to be able to run the football. I mean,
- 41:50Speaker 4: I'll defend Bryce Young a lot, but we ain't gonna
- 41:52Speaker 4: go out there and go air Bricey and win twelve games.
- 41:55Speaker 4: They got to run the dang football was great.
- 41:58Speaker 3: See Brooks back and he showed a little bit of
- 42:00Speaker 3: skill on that pass out in the flat Bony to
- 42:03Speaker 3: get nine yards on it. But the running game certainly
- 42:06Speaker 3: has to get better. The run blocking up the gut
- 42:09Speaker 3: has to get better. All right, let's move along here, Bone,
- 42:13Speaker 3: because now we got to get that's the present Panther quarterback.
- 42:16Speaker 3: And by the way, if you're waiting to like here
- 42:19Speaker 3: people being called out for bad performances, us to discuss
- 42:24Speaker 3: what the heck bothered us.
- 42:25Speaker 4: On Saturday, more of that. We opened the show with that.
- 42:29Speaker 4: More of that coming up at seven o'clock here. On
- 42:32Speaker 4: the mac En Bone Show, Cam Newton Cam Newton Bone
- 42:36Speaker 4: last week made an admission about how he should have
- 42:40Speaker 4: set out the full twenty nineteen season. He said he
- 42:43Speaker 4: basically rushed back because Kyle Allen, of all people, was
- 42:46Speaker 4: playing well, and he rushed himself back and he says
- 42:49Speaker 4: he shouldn't well. Now he made another admission Bone talking
- 42:53Speaker 4: on the Pivot podcast. He talked about putting himself in
- 42:57Speaker 4: bad situations. One of them was in New England where
- 43:01Speaker 4: he started real quick and says he basically did not
- 43:04Speaker 4: wasn't comfortable with the offense, but was starting very quickly.
- 43:08Speaker 4: And he has a similar tailbone about his comeback the
- 43:12Speaker 4: second Cam stint with Carolina.
- 43:15Speaker 5: Now, Carolina, I put myself in another step situation. I
- 43:20Speaker 5: will signed on Thursday, I played on Sunday. At what
- 43:25Speaker 5: point did you think you was going to be successful
- 43:28Speaker 5: that next week I started? That's still up under ten
- 43:32Speaker 5: days of you being on a team, and you're still
- 43:34Speaker 5: trying to learn an offense. This is not a receiver,
- 43:37Speaker 5: this is not a safety, this is not a left tackle.
- 43:40Speaker 1: This is a quarterback.
- 43:42Speaker 5: So before I sit up here and allow the narrative
- 43:45Speaker 5: to be made that Cam ain't got it no more,
- 43:47Speaker 5: Cam is taking full responsibility and saying that Cam put
- 43:51Speaker 5: himself in a step situation, which then had a ricocheted
- 43:54Speaker 5: effect to people thinking how you think, which I respect
- 43:59Speaker 5: because we all are and tied it to our opinion.
- 44:01Speaker 5: I don't necessarily have to agree with it, nor do
- 44:03Speaker 5: should you or anybody else who watches this has to
- 44:05Speaker 5: agree with it. But I'm saying I put myself in
- 44:07Speaker 5: a situation thinking that man, I'm cam Bro, I'm booked.
- 44:11Speaker 5: You feel me?
- 44:13Speaker 1: A lot of Cam, a lot of him calling himself
- 44:15Speaker 1: Cam ye. Interesting, interesting perspective there from.
- 44:18Speaker 3: Cam on that I listen, I do think it's uh
- 44:21Speaker 3: and this is we've moved on with our lives. But
- 44:24Speaker 3: Cam's bearing his soul here lately. I do think, yeah,
- 44:27Speaker 3: it was a tough spot. He did play very quickly,
- 44:29Speaker 3: I think that needs to be mentioned, but also physically
- 44:33Speaker 3: that shoulder like it it just felt like it was cooked.
- 44:37Speaker 3: It felt like his ability to sling it downfield bony
- 44:39Speaker 3: which and look at his MVP season, how well he
- 44:42Speaker 3: threw that ball downfield?
- 44:44Speaker 1: You did? It just felt like that was gone from
- 44:47Speaker 1: his game.
- 44:48Speaker 3: He did play quick back, but I'm pretty sure there
- 44:50Speaker 3: was a stammering head coach and also probably tried to
- 44:53Speaker 3: get him in there as quick as possible.
- 44:54Speaker 1: To you. We got to hear cave. You know what
- 44:57Speaker 1: I'm saying. You were great, You're a legid. What do
- 44:59Speaker 1: you do? I'm he was pressured a little bit by
- 45:02Speaker 1: Captain Bumble's there.
- 45:04Speaker 6: I'm sure it was a mutual decision.
- 45:08Speaker 1: There came on that end of it.
- 45:09Speaker 4: All right, Let's get to Kurt Signetti, because he obviously
- 45:13Speaker 4: talks a big game, but he in Indiana canceled their
- 45:17Speaker 4: home and home with Notre Dame. He was on the
- 45:19Speaker 4: Big Ten network bone explaining the conditions by which he
- 45:23Speaker 4: would schedule Notre Dame.
- 45:25Speaker 8: Listen to this, Yeah, I'd like to play Notre Dame.
- 45:28Speaker 8: They got to come to our place twice, and we'll
- 45:30Speaker 8: go up there once since they're not in the conference.
- 45:32Speaker 8: I'd love to playing be a great in state game.
- 45:35Speaker 8: You know. I guess there's a backstory of that. I
- 45:37Speaker 8: don't quite know what it is, so you know it
- 45:40Speaker 8: is what it is. Because schedules predr and tough two.
- 45:44Speaker 4: I don't like Notre Dame and I do like Kurt Signetti,
- 45:48Speaker 4: but I feel like I can't be on Kurt's side.
- 45:51Speaker 4: They've got to come to you twice because they don't
- 45:53Speaker 4: have a conference.
- 45:55Speaker 3: No. This is this is This is on Signetti more
- 45:58Speaker 3: than than on Notre Dame. Kurt, you have done one
- 46:02Speaker 3: of the greatest coaching jobs, if not the greatest coaching
- 46:04Speaker 3: job in college football history, to get IU national champs.
- 46:09Speaker 3: How about you parlay that now into playing people in
- 46:14Speaker 3: the non conference. We went through it a couple of
- 46:16Speaker 3: weeks ago.
- 46:16Speaker 1: MAC.
- 46:17Speaker 3: They have game schedule at twenty thirty two right now.
- 46:20Speaker 3: None of them are big games. North Texas, Howard, Western Kentucky,
- 46:24Speaker 3: Kannessas State, Indiana State, U Mess, Austin, p Miami of Ohio,
- 46:28Speaker 3: Ball State go year by year. They are playing in
- 46:31Speaker 3: an Ara, MAC where we're trying to get bigger games
- 46:34Speaker 3: to start the year, bigger non conference games. Kurt, I'm
- 46:38Speaker 3: gonna go ahead and guess that you probably ultimately don't
- 46:41Speaker 3: want No Dame on the schedule because that does not
- 46:44Speaker 3: fit anything you're doing non conference.
- 46:45Speaker 4: Listen, I don't even give a dang if they don't
- 46:47Speaker 4: want to play, like I'd like to see Indiana play
- 46:50Speaker 4: tougher games because it would be entertaining in the non conference.
- 46:53Speaker 1: But if they don't want to, I don't care.
- 46:54Speaker 3: They won sixteen to Oh, they beat everybody, like you
- 46:56Speaker 3: know what I mean, they want to playoff. But the
- 46:59Speaker 3: Notre Dame thing where they have to come here twice
- 47:03Speaker 3: at what that's playing a home at home, like you
- 47:06Speaker 3: can't sl a home at home. They got to come
