• 1:23
  Speaker 1: win the division we will discuss that on the show
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: as well dave canalis runs down a list of injury
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: updates that I think Panther fans are going to want
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: to hear. So we've got that coming up this hour.
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: Do Duke and Wake Forest really deserve to both be
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: ranked in both polls? Yes. Or is the ACC just
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: a bunch of crybabies?
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: We will tell that too. Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: mean to say it twice. We will discuss that. And
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: we can't get enough of Bryce Young, MVP odds, MVP chance,
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: and the national media buzz. fawning over our little king.
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: It's happening, baby. He is a national darling, y'all. So
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: we got to talk about it all today here on
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: the Mac and Bone Show. Hornets got a preseason game tonight.
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: Hornets also have another injury. We'll tell you about here
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: in a minute. We got Bone. We got Fitty. We
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: got a Detroit montage of misery as they try to
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: deal with their sucky, horrible defense. And we will laugh
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: right here on the Mac and Bone Show. Boney, what
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: do you say today, Boney? What's up, man? What's up,
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: my Tom Brokaw? It's over. It's done.
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: Oh, no.
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: That's it. I'm out. I'm out. See you later. You said,
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: once I go Tom Brokaw, it's over with. So the
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: bros are out.
• 2:37
  Speaker 4: I'm out.
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: I'm out of bros.
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: I'm done.
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: I can't do it anymore. I'm out of bros. I
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: got to go to some slims and some aces and
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: some pals. You could have called them Tom Bros. Or Brews.
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: But here's the thing. No matter. Matt, here's the thing.
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: Would you like him to do it from now on? Actually,
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: broke call sounds really good after I just heard that.
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: It's funny, though, Finney. I thought he was going to
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: try to turn Tom Cruise into one of those two.
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: And I'm like, how's this going to work? It does
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: not rhyme with broke. It doesn't work, but it would
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: have delayed the inevitable. Now are what? Three week bids?
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: Now it's over, so you've got to find something else
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: to do.
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: No, no, no.
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: It's not over. The bros are coming to an end.
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: We're going to move over to some slims and some
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: pals and various things. Charlotte is excited to hear your pivot.
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: We've got a friend of the station, Pal Wallace. Pal Wallace, okay.
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: I'm a big fam guy. All right. A big what? Fam. Fam.
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: What up, fam? All right. We are off to a
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: rousing start here. How about those Falcons, baby? Unbelievable what
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: happened to the Falcons.
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: So it started out, Mac, we thought, well, Tampa will
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: probably be the biggest threat. And they're going by the wayside.
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: Then we thought, oh, look at the Saints. They're off
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: to a pretty good start. Tyler Chuck is rolling. Good
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: start within reason offensively. But now it looks like. The
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: two teams in the NFC South are probably the Panthers
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: and the Falcons. And the Panthers already steamrolled said team
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: that might be their biggest contender.
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: And this is the plot thickens because I did not see.
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: I mean, who saw either of these Falcon Road blowout wins?
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: My goodness. They beat the heck out of the Packers
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: in Lambeau. And then last night they put up 45 points.
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: This is now a high-powered Falcons offense, and the Saints
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: defense has trouble, a ton of injuries, but it's funny.
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: When I hear everybody talk about that, like Aikman and
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: them last night, it's kind of like I don't want
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: to hear... Your injury excuses.
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: No.
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: Because I can't imagine you have had 14 starters miss
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: time so far this season, and that's what the Panthers
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: have dealt with. But the Saints, I think it's like
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: four different guys, Bone, two starting linebackers, a couple D linemen,
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: so four starting guys out. in that front, and it
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: did show because the Falcons ran all over them. And
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: it wasn't just the good Robinson. The mid-Robinson was running
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: all over them as well. Bijon, a 145 rushing, including
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: the big, long touchdown to get things going. And then
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: Brian Robinson had three touchdowns at 62 yards. Man, that
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: was ugly last night.
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: The Saints can't defend right now. They don't run the ball.
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: They can't run the ball. H and is currently out.
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: Kamara is always getting injured. So running in defense, not
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: there for new Orleans. You can see Mac, what they
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: want out of Pennix also, who's been pretty, pretty darn
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: efficient and good in his return there. But with him
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: in the Stefanski offense, it is going to be, we
• 5:39
  Speaker 3: are going to ride out both Robinsons. We are going
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: to use Drake London as much as possible.
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: And that's good. They're not going to put it all
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: on Pennix.
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: How Kyle pits, I think at his third catch of
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: the season, In the game last night, which is kind
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: of crazy to think about.
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: He added two more after that. I'll have you know.
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: He's on fire. It's going to be about Pennix. Don't
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: mess this up for that. Talk about Stefanski. Don't mess
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: this up for us. Speaking of them and then have
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: their running backs just be the dominant forces.
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: That's going to be their strategy. And listen, it's worked
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: the last two weeks. I refuse to believe. I know
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: that they look totally different since Pennix went in and
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: the Panthers dealt with. the law firm of Russian Strand,
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: but I refuse to believe Michael Penix is some sort
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: of division-winning force. Listen, I could end up with egg
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: on my face. Lord knows I've had four egg omelets
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: all over this grill before, just looking like a fool.
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: But I refuse to believe— I watched Michael Penix here, Bone,
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: get his ass shut out 30-0 last year. So I
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: refuse to believe that he is going to— that they
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: are that different of a team with him in there.
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: With that said, the Saints got issues. It's like they
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: have a second-year starting quarterback who has talent, but it's
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: all on him. I mean, they can't pass protect him
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: because they can't run the football. They're one-dimensional. They're still
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: missing Jordan Tyson there. It feels like it's all on
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: Chuck and Alave to do everything. So they're sitting there
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: at one and three. Listen, I guess I should hesitate, Bone,
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: to act like I know where these teams will all
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: be in 10 games. You know, I mean, this thing's
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: just like I said, it's just a drunk division. But
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: it does make the the inconsistencies elsewhere makes me feel
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: even better about the Panthers, because when we get healthier,
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: I think we've got a chance to be NFC South consistent.
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: I'm not talking bone about NFC North consistent or NFC
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: West consistent, but I do think we have a chance
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: to be, and we got to fight for consistency ourselves.
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: We don't want to lose one, all that stuff. But
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: I do think bone, if we can get enough guys healthy,
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: I think we, I think we have a great chance consistently.
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: to be the most consistent team in this division, man.
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: The Falcons back are now going to be in the
• 7:59
  Speaker 3: midst of just a fascinating stretch to figure out, is
• 8:03
  Speaker 3: this really who they are the last two games, or
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: is there going to be a fallback?
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: They have five of the net six not on the road.
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: There's four at home for Atlanta. And one is a
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: game that is one of the international games. But it's Baltimore, Bears, Niners.
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: Three in a row, all in Atlanta. Tampa on the road.
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: Cincinnati is the international game. And then Kansas City is
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: in Atlanta. So it's the.
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: Ravens, the Bears, the Niners, the Bengals, and Kansas City,
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: five of their next six games. Yeah. So we're going
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: to find out. Are they really turning the corner? No.
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: I don't know. We're going to see here.
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: No.
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: No. Yeah, I would not. There's some losses. That's a
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: rough stretch. There's some losses in that stretch. Not that
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: there's not losses in stretches for us. I feel like
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: Michael Penix ends up getting exposed in a few of
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: those games. I agree.
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: Now, they play Baltimore Sunday night football, another primetime game
• 8:58
  Speaker 3: for them.
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: Maybe no Lamar. But Lamar may not play. There you go.
• 9:01
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: I'm not mocking. Who the hell's their coach there? Minter. Yeah.
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: He said yesterday he doesn't think it's going to be
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: one of those long injuries. But as Adam Schefter pointed out, OK,
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: does that does that mean or crazy? He said, don't
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: think it's going to be one of those crazy long injuries. Well,
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: does that mean he's missing some time, but just a little?
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: That's what Schefter was. I think that's a legitimate question.
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: Sounds like maybe he won't play, but there are games
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: after that. I think the Ravens are mid anyway, honestly,
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: with Lamar. But there are games after that on their
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: schedule that there's losses coming. But there's losses coming for
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: everybody in the South.
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: And then after Kansas City, Matt, they're at Minnesota and
• 9:36
  Speaker 3: home for the Lions. They have a brutal.
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: Stretch coming up. They do, man. They do. Although they
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: hate to see it. Although the lions fans on sports
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: talk radio in Detroit yesterday told me bone, they are
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: the worst team in the history of football. God, we
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: all do it. Don't wait. Every fan base, every group
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: of radio hosts. We all, because there's one game a week,
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: we all treat every game like it's the damn super
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: bowl and our complete mood bone is affected by that
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: sunday for the entire next week.
• 10:06
  Speaker 3: Man oh i know can i tell you what might
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: be a good sign look i'm not i'm not proud
• 10:11
  Speaker 3: of myself but i do think it's a good sign
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: that the panthers are turning that corner and we're getting
• 10:18
  Speaker 3: that old vibe back i got involved in a twitter
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: fight with the bryce hater yes no i cannot believe
• 10:23
  Speaker 3: you would spend time well no i i don't really
• 10:26
  Speaker 3: twitter scraps that extended version this went on all afternoon
• 10:31
  Speaker 3: and i i feel kind of bad that i i
• 10:33
  Speaker 3: got involved in something like that at this point but
• 10:35
  Speaker 3: then i realized this doesn't happen When the Panthers are
• 10:39
  Speaker 3: not playing well, when the quarterback is not playing well,
• 10:42
  Speaker 3: it brought me back to 2015 defending camp. There's this guy,
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: Jordan Cork, old Cork. He used to live in my neighborhood,
• 10:49
  Speaker 3: by the way. You know this guy?
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: Oh, yeah.
• 10:50
  Speaker 3: He used to live in my neighborhood. This guy is
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: just the most arrogant, self-entitled. I got to be honest.
• 10:58
  Speaker 3: I can't stand this guy. Was telling me yesterday that
• 11:01
  Speaker 3: he knows football more than all of us because he
• 11:04
  Speaker 3: studied the game at a high level and he learned
• 11:07
  Speaker 3: from the greats of the game. He has friends that
• 11:10
  Speaker 3: have played the game at the highest level, won championships. Mac,
• 11:13
  Speaker 3: he went to bars with players back in the early 2000s.
• 11:18
  Speaker 3: And he has an All-22 subscription. So he thinks he's
• 11:21
  Speaker 3: this football Einstein. He's this genius. I was down in
• 11:26
  Speaker 3: the muck yesterday. But you know what, though? He's talking
• 11:29
  Speaker 3: about how much better– it's a whole thing here. But anyway,
• 11:32
  Speaker 3: it's just– I don't want to get myself back into
• 11:35
  Speaker 3: this right now, but how much better Geno Smith's numbers
• 11:38
  Speaker 3: were against the Lions than what Bryce did against the
• 11:40
  Speaker 3: Lions with Frank Reich as his coach.
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: Listen, if you claim to know ball and you don't
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: think Bryce Young has played good in the first four
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: weeks of the season, I believe you lied about knowing ball.
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: That's all I'm going to say. Also, Bone, you might
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: have wanted to take Murphy for an extra walk instead
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: of getting into that one yesterday.
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: He's acting like he learned in Mr. Miyagi's football dojo.
• 11:59
  Speaker 3: He learned his lessons and his ideals in some weird
• 12:01
  Speaker 3: 2000s basement.
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: Hey, man, we know J.J. Jansen, buddy, and he's coming
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: on today for a special Victory Tuesday Snapchats. Hey, I
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: don't need Jordan Clark. What the heck is his name?
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: Jordan Cork. I don't need that dude to tell me
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: Bryce is good because we got Dan Orlovsky, John Gruden,
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: Chris Sims. We got Ocho Cinco. We got all the
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: luminaries you'll hear from on today's show.
• 12:26
  Speaker 3: He said those guys don't study the game like he does. Well,
• 12:29
  Speaker 3: but he's just a cork hole.
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: Finney is on one today. Finney is feeling good today.
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: Finney's ready to go, baby.
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: All right. We do need to mention the Panthers. We'll
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: give you a little injury news tease because yesterday we
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: got what we wanted. I said, Bone, it's about time
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: for the injury updates on all the guys that are
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: eligible to come back now after four games. And the
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: assembled media and Dave Canales obliged. So we're going to
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: hear the Wharton, the Icky, the Moten and all that stuff.
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: But we'll just we'll just give you this one. Phillips
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: and Freeling, not long term, not neither one long term injury.
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: Phillips hurt his hammy the other night. Freeling his knee.
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: Dave Canales said hopeful that they can be back for
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: the Philly game. But it's certainly no guarantee at this point.
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: So they're rehabbing. They're going to try to get after it.
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: And we'll see. We'll see what ends up happening. But
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: at least those things, Bone, are not long-term injuries. But
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: the Hornets provided us, Bone, with another injury to discuss
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: in Charlotte Athletics.
• 13:31
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it wasn't your day for injury updates, Hornets. We
• 13:33
  Speaker 3: didn't need you yesterday for this. They're like, hey, can
• 13:35
  Speaker 3: we get in?
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: No, no, no. Don't pull or strain anything. Just hang on.
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: We'll get to you. Oh, my God. So now it
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: is Kobe White with a calf strain, and he is
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: going to miss the preseason. Preseason starts tonight, and the
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: game is at the Hive against the Nets, and the
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: game is on 64 here locally, Bone, so you can
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: either get to the arena or watch it. But unfortunately,
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: Kobe White will sit out all four preseason games. So now...
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: We're sweating out Khan and Grant Williams for the start
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: of the season, and now we're sweating out Kobe White
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: for the start of the season.
• 14:08
  Speaker 3: Look, it's not panic mode, but it's not a good
• 14:12
  Speaker 3: sign already that we're dealing with these types of injuries.
• 14:16
  Speaker 3: Didn't appear like he finished the season physically strong, and
• 14:19
  Speaker 3: he starts the year, and he's already got that going on.
• 14:21
  Speaker 3: I'm not losing sleep over it, but it is notable.
• 14:24
  Speaker 3: And then Kobe White, Mac, we said all summer, look,
• 14:26
  Speaker 3: we didn't get the full Kobe White last year. He
• 14:29
  Speaker 3: was dealing with some stuff. Even when we were at
• 14:31
  Speaker 3: the game, Mac, we could see him on the sideline,
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: on the bench, really, you know... the hamstring or the calf,
• 14:36
  Speaker 3: whatever the injury was. Wasn't it a calf injury last year?
• 14:39
  Speaker 3: I believe it was. So are we back to the
• 14:40
  Speaker 3: same calf, I wonder? So that's a little concerning that
• 14:42
  Speaker 3: we're now into the preseason and it's already got something
• 14:45
  Speaker 3: going on. I'm not going to, you know, throw myself
• 14:48
  Speaker 3: into traffic over it, but it is something that is
• 14:50
  Speaker 3: a little bit.
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: mildly concerning right now it's i do wonder if it's
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: the same it just hit me it's like is this
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: the same calf as last year that's with that calf
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: a while i got i use the roller on the
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: bench a lot so i'm not sure now i'm concerned
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: if it's the same calf but anyway somebody just called
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: it hornet straining camp it's straining it really is man
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: i'm telling you the soft tissue injuries right now in
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: this city are unbelievable bone i got hurt walking back
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: from the doghouse to the station the other day i
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: mean now i'm in.
• 15:20
  Speaker 3: It you know no joking aside what a gutty performance
• 15:23
  Speaker 3: in the victory dance yesterday you did injured knee after
• 15:26
  Speaker 3: you were walking back from the doghouse and you still
• 15:29
  Speaker 3: did the dance show me a more show me a
• 15:32
  Speaker 3: more freakish athlete fitting than this guy.
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: Was it's just it's about grit bone it's not about
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: sheer athleticism Not about that. It's about just grip. It's
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: about my will exceeding my skill, actually.
• 15:42
  Speaker 3: How on alert are we back every afternoon that a
• 15:45
  Speaker 3: Hornets injury note could drop at any given moment? Well,
• 15:47
  Speaker 3: you and I were having a conversation about something totally
• 15:49
  Speaker 3: different yesterday.
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: I had to drop it. Oh, by the way, Kobe
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: White just got hurt. I've got to be honest. I
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: let my guard down. The last thing I was thinking
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: about is a Hornets injury. I was all excited. We're
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: in the middle of our conversation. I just got done
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: reading about the preseason opener and looking up, is it
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: on TV? And I was all excited to watch the
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: Hornets tonight, and then Bone drops that one on me.
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: By the way, I saw the weirdest thing last night
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: on SportsCenter after the Falcons got done mollywhomping the Saints.
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: LaMelo Ball in a Timberwolves jersey. The Timberwolves had their
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: preseason opener last night, and LaMelo Ball is out there
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: balling for another team, and it is the oddest sight.
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: It really is. It's weird, man.
• 16:29
  Speaker 3: It didn't count because the whistle blew, but his first
• 16:31
  Speaker 3: shot was a half-court three and it went in. He
• 16:34
  Speaker 3: kind of threw it up when the whistle blew, and
• 16:36
  Speaker 3: it just went in. And I'm thinking, hey, Minnesota, get.
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: Used to that. That might be a shot in the
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: regular season at some point. Yeah, he threw that up
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: because the whistle blew, but he's only going to move
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: in about four feet for many of his threes. I
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: ain't trying to hate on him, man. I wish him
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: the best. I think he is a good-hearted kid. I
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: think he's definitely a knucklehead, but he's a talented knucklehead.
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: So I want this to work out for us both.
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: and for him but it is just one of those
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: things bone that is weird as hell to see as
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: a Charlotte sports fan.
• 17:10
  Speaker 3: You know but as far as we go I think
• 17:11
  Speaker 3: it's going to be um you know we got to
• 17:13
  Speaker 3: get these guys With the Hornets, it's always a question
• 17:16
  Speaker 3: of how many guys are playing at once. But the
• 17:19
  Speaker 3: depth on this team, the style of play, I think
• 17:21
  Speaker 3: this is going to be a very, very fun Hornets team.
• 17:24
  Speaker 3: We'll see what that translates to wins because of the
• 17:27
  Speaker 3: Eastern Conference. But I don't think this team is going
• 17:29
  Speaker 3: to lack Mac for entertaining basketball throughout the season. No,
• 17:32
  Speaker 3: I think they're going to be competitive. They're going to
• 17:33
  Speaker 3: put a lot of points up. They're going to shoot
• 17:34
  Speaker 3: a lot. They're going to compete. I don't think this
• 17:36
  Speaker 3: is going to be one of these years where we're like, oh,
• 17:39
  Speaker 3: my God, how did they get beat 130 to 70?
• 17:40
  Speaker 3: They're going to be an entertaining basketball team.
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: I mean, if they ended up with around the same record,
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: it wouldn't shock me if we were pretty healthy, knock
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: on wood, because remember the hole that we spotted. We
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: had to dig ourselves out of this giant hole. If
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: they don't dig that hole to start— I think they
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: could end up, Bone, in a similar win territory to
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: last year. But the Kobe White thing is very important.
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: I don't want Dennis Schroeder. No offense. He's a good,
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: solid— he' s a decent veteran backup. I don't want him as
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: our starting point guard. No offense.
• 18:09
  Speaker 3: If he was in there for a short stretch of
• 18:11
  Speaker 3: a handful of games, you can get by with that one.
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 18:14
  Speaker 3: You don't want— because then, much like the— Some of the
• 18:18
  Speaker 3: pans are secondary pieces. Then that moves up other guys.
• 18:20
  Speaker 3: There's a lot. Then all of a sudden, Christian Anderson
• 18:23
  Speaker 3: may be getting more early. Then it moves everybody else up.
• 18:26
  Speaker 3: You want Schroeder to be the designated backup point guard. Definitely, definitely.
• 18:31
  Speaker 3: Shout out to the Braves. Big game tonight in Atlanta.
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: This one should be fun. Six o'clock start. What a
• 18:38
  Speaker 3: pitching matchup. Sale versus Yamamoto tonight. Braves fans, good luck
• 18:43
  Speaker 3: to you. Remember, Bone, I last week admitted I'm not
• 18:47
  Speaker 3: a Braves fan. Why did I call myself a Braves fan?
• 18:51
  Speaker 3: When I did that, they went out and lost a
• 18:52
  Speaker 3: playoff game. So I now am just watching from afar, y'all.
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying? Just watching from afar. Baseball, huh? Baseball. Baseball.
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: James Earl Jones voice. Baseball. Baseball. What a sport.
• 19:05
  Speaker 3: I'm not here for sympathy. I'm not here for hugs
• 19:08
  Speaker 3: and hand pounds. But I have to tell you right now,
• 19:10
  Speaker 3: I'm watching that Yankee season slip away right now. But
• 19:12
  Speaker 3: I don't want you guys to get emotional about it.
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: I know.
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: We feel horrible for you. We just want you to
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: have some baseball happiness like we do.
• 19:18
  Speaker 3: I know, Mac, you were focused on the football game
• 19:20
  Speaker 3: last night. And I don't want you to be sad
• 19:22
  Speaker 3: about this. In the first four batters of the game
• 19:24
  Speaker 3: last night, the Yankees committed three errors. in a postseason
• 19:27
  Speaker 3: game what are they.
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: Doing at orioles and they dress it up as the
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: orioles for halloween yeah but you work with the wrong
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: two baseball fans to try to get sympathy for a postseason.
• 19:36
  Speaker 3: I just said i don't want i said i don't
• 19:38
  Speaker 3: want it if you're tempted to give me sympathy for
• 19:40
  Speaker 3: trying to hug me right now although finney's always up
• 19:42
  Speaker 3: for a hug but i that is true i i
• 19:45
  Speaker 3: don't want i want to i want to be by
• 19:46
  Speaker 3: myself right now and think about what's happened here i
• 19:49
  Speaker 3: don't need you hey you know who you call i
• 19:50
  Speaker 3: don't need this to be a pity parade come here
• 19:52
  Speaker 3: give me a hug.
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: Call nick wilson up in cleveland because you guys are
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: both a game away from losing the series uh chicago
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: the white socks beat the indians tampa beat the rays
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: is what bone is referred or tampa the guardians okay
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: whatever y'all i'm saying what i'm saying you guys decipher
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: it out there in listener land because we got to
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: stop talking but anyway it's looking like white socks um
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: who the hell tampa looking like white socks they're called
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: the rays in the american in the american league All right,
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: we come back.
• 20:21
  Speaker 3: Mac's probably going to yell at Fitty here before we
• 20:22
  Speaker 3: go to break, so let's just get out of here
• 20:24
  Speaker 3: while we can. I actually, Fitty, do not have– Mac,
• 20:28
  Speaker 3: I don't have all my stuff pulled up here because
• 20:29
  Speaker 3: I was doing the montage today. Can you send us
• 20:32
  Speaker 3: to break, Mac? Will I get us set up over here?
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah, let me just make six more mistakes on our
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: way out and get 17 buckets and mobs. I just
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: realized I don't have the information. You're going to hear
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: Dave Canales' injury updates on Moten. Icky, Wharton, A-Chan. You're
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: going to get all those updates coming up next. Sports
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: Radio 92.7 WFNZ.
• 21:27
  Speaker 4: We're monitoring those guys right now. I won't be able
• 21:31
  Speaker 4: to give you all the specifics. I really don't want
• 21:32
  Speaker 4: to do that right now. But Jalen's got a hamstring.
• 21:36
  Speaker 4: He's going to be in return to play. We're hopeful
• 21:40
  Speaker 4: for Philly. We'll see. He's got to go through the
• 21:42
  Speaker 4: right progression of it. We'll push him the right way
• 21:45
  Speaker 4: at the right pace based on him. Monroe's knee, he
• 21:48
  Speaker 4: got rolled up on. Again, same type of thing. These
• 21:51
  Speaker 4: guys are well within the window that we think they
• 21:54
  Speaker 4: could make it back. I can't say that that's going
• 21:57
  Speaker 4: to happen for the Eagles game. We have to see.
• 22:00
  Speaker 4: It really is going to be go through this week,
• 22:02
  Speaker 4: treat it, get to next week for the game week
• 22:05
  Speaker 4: to be able to start pushing them and see if
• 22:07
  Speaker 4: they're going to be available.
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: All right, so that is the Coach Canales update on
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: Phillips and Freeling. Obviously, it's a situation that is very fresh, right?
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: And I listen to that, and I'm kind of like,
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: I don't know. It's probably dangerous 12 days out from
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: a game to try to figure out what that means.
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: Maybe you get them both back. Maybe you get one back.
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: Maybe you get none back. But at least there is hope.
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: And I think the key part of that is that
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: neither one is a long-term injury. So I think that
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: is certainly the key part of that. Because dudes are
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: dropping like flies all around the league in terms of
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: long-term injuries.
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: So.
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: The Panthers, knock on wood, avoided a long-term injury this week,
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: unless there's something I don't know about that happened in
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: the game. But that's certainly good news. But I think
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: one of the things we really were curious to hear yesterday, Bone,
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: was the guys that are eligible to come back. after
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: whether it's IR or Pup List or whatever it might be,
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: four games into the season. So those guys include, you know,
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: guys like A-Chan, Moten, and Wharton. And Dave Canales gave
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: you updates on those three.
• 23:17
  Speaker 4: I could say for sure Trevor A-Chan. He'll be coming back.
• 23:21
  Speaker 4: And so that one I know for sure with Timo
• 23:24
  Speaker 4: and with Turk. We need medical clearance. So we're going
• 23:28
  Speaker 4: to be really at the mercy of the evaluations that
• 23:31
  Speaker 4: happen in this next week to see if we can
• 23:33
  Speaker 4: get those guys back. And really, they're physically there. We've
• 23:37
  Speaker 4: pushed them as hard as we can within the confines
• 23:40
  Speaker 4: of their mode to know that they're physically ready to
• 23:43
  Speaker 4: do it. But then there's structural stuff. There's the medical
• 23:46
  Speaker 4: stuff with Timo that we have to we're at the
• 23:49
  Speaker 4: mercy of.
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: So. So HN back for the Philly game, and Wharton
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: and Moten sound like they're pretty dang close, Boney. So
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: we're getting somewhere with injuries. Yeah.
• 24:02
  Speaker 3: We said there would probably be updates on the offensive
• 24:04
  Speaker 3: linemen now with the bye week and their time coming
• 24:08
  Speaker 3: up to open up their window. So it's at least
• 24:10
  Speaker 3: good to hear some timeline of that. Obviously, two completely
• 24:16
  Speaker 3: different things. They're dealing with Icky with the knee and
• 24:19
  Speaker 3: Moten with a– you know, a life altering type thing
• 24:22
  Speaker 3: that you have to worry about, but it's at least
• 24:23
  Speaker 3: good to hear that they're on the path back.
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: Warden's a neck injury. Warden, if people forgot what that was,
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: it's a neck injury. So Warden and Moten, sorry, Moten
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: with the clots. Warden and Moten, we'll get to Icky
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: in a second. Warden and Motenbone are the ones he basically,
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: I don't think he used the word close. Darren Gant
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: did on panthers.com, but you can hear it there. They
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: are physically getting pushed because they can like, They can
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: push them physically. It's just, you got a blood clot
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: in your lung. You're going to need a doctor to
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: sign off on you coming back. And then the same
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: with Wharton, it's the structural neck. It's like, dude, we
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: saw him out there bone during training camp, but we're like,
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: look at him moving around. Look at him hitting the sled.
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: It's one thing bone to do all that stuff. It's
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: another thing to get the clearance to go out there
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: and have a 300 pound man bash your head in
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: when you got a neck injury. So like those are,
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: those are, you know, tenuous things, right? So they got
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: to be careful with them. But it sounds to me
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: like Turk and Moten are getting pretty darn close. And
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: that's freaking awesome. Now, the Icky, you bring up Icky Bone.
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: Icky's a different story. Listen to what Canales said about him.
• 25:29
  Speaker 4: Icky still got a ways. Icky is progressing well. They're
• 25:33
  Speaker 4: pushing him. He's moving.
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: He's jumping.
• 25:35
  Speaker 4: He's doing some different things. But we have to be
• 25:38
  Speaker 4: able to get it to a point where he's getting
• 25:40
  Speaker 4: pushed on and all those things. And that's still in
• 25:43
  Speaker 4: front of us. But he's in great spirits. He's attacking it.
• 25:47
  Speaker 4: They're doing a great job with him in RTP, but
• 25:49
  Speaker 4: he's going to have a little bit of a way still.
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: So Icky is in a different boat than those other
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: two guys, but it still would be interesting, Bone. If
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: you were to get Moten back, let's just say in
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: the next few games, right, next couple few games, it'll
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: be interesting to see who then starts at left tackle. Yeah,
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: and then long-term for the season, if Moten gets back
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: in there– Yeah, I'm sorry. Excuse me. Yes, I was confused. Yeah,
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: you're right. I was getting my sides confused there. You're right.
• 26:19
  Speaker 3: The Walker, Freeling, Icky side, how do they manage that?
• 26:24
  Speaker 3: Do they just roll with Freeling and say, you're the
• 26:27
  Speaker 3: guy going forward. You're the number one pick. Do they
• 26:29
  Speaker 3: go with Icky because he can help us? I'm not
• 26:31
  Speaker 3: sure Icky's. He can help establish the run a little more.
• 26:35
  Speaker 3: Or is Icky more of a depth piece going forward
• 26:38
  Speaker 3: for this season? Sorry, I was backwards on my sides.
• 26:40
  Speaker 3: It sounds like Icky's so far off bone.
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: He's not even in my mind. It becomes then Moten
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: takes the right tackle spot and who plays left tackle,
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: Freeling or Walker? And I'm not going to act like
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: there have not been bone lumps and rookie moments for
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: Monroe Freeling. But Rasheed Walker came in here with a
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: reputation as being a really good pass protector, but not
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: necessarily as good in run blocking. Bone, he had seven pressures.
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: PFF's not the end all and the be all, but
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: it's a guidance. They gave him seven pressures the other night.
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: That would give him 19 pressures allowed for the last
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: three games. And that's supposed to be the strong suit
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: of his game? So like, I have to be honest
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: right now, my, my feeling, if Freeling gets healthy, because
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: of course he has to have an injury too right now,
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: but it doesn't sound like it's going to be long,
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: but if Freeling's healthy, I may just roll him over
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: to the left side.
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 27:37
  Speaker 3: And then that's the stalwart. That's that's who's going to
• 27:40
  Speaker 3: be there anyway. So just roll with it now. Take
• 27:44
  Speaker 3: the good with the bad. And that's going to be
• 27:45
  Speaker 3: your dude. That's that's your that's your Jordan Gross. That's
• 27:49
  Speaker 3: your guy for the next decade plus. So do you
• 27:51
  Speaker 3: make that choice now?
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: And the icky thing, I am really wondering how many
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: snaps he has in a Panther uniform. That's a fair question.
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: I really am. Because like Darren Gant wrote on Panthers.com,
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: they still think he could be back by the end
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: of the season. It's like it's getting pushed back further
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: and further. And it sounds like it's not a certainty now.
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: And then when he comes back, do they throw him
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: right in? I mean.
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: How good is he going to be right away? There's
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: so many questions about Icky, and they clearly, like you
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: just said right there, Bone, they drafted Freeling to be
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: the left tackle long term.
• 28:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it is a best for everybody involved just if
• 28:26
  Speaker 3: Icky doesn't play this year. Icky can spend the whole
• 28:29
  Speaker 3: year getting healthy. The Panthers already have their plans of
• 28:33
  Speaker 3: the future at that spot, so it could be a
• 28:36
  Speaker 3: best for all parties involved if it gets to a
• 28:38
  Speaker 3: certain point in the year instead of bringing Icky back
• 28:40
  Speaker 3: with handful of games to go. It's a, it's a
• 28:44
  Speaker 3: lost season for Ricky, but it may benefit him in
• 28:46
  Speaker 3: the long run as well.
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: I will say this about Walker though, because like I said,
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: the book on him was that the past blocking is good.
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: The run blocking is shaky. Chuba again, Chuba has been
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: doing this all season where off left tackle and left end.
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: where Walker plays, he's been doing damage. Seven carries for
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: 66 yards, either off the left tackle or left end.
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: He has been running really well to that left side.
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: So I will mention that for Walker. All right, let's
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: get to the Caleb Evans situation here, Boney, because he
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: had a day, and I will say this, I was
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: watching the game with Mac Jr. on Sunday night, and
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: I'm sitting there yelling about a Caleb Evans situation. And
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: he keeps saying, I feel so bad for the guy.
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: I really do. So I am very proud of McClain
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: with a heart. I am very proud to say, Bone,
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: that I'm raising a young man that has a good heart. Right.
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: I don't know if I have one. but it was rough.
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: It was rough. Eleven catches, I think PFS final number
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: was 11 for 197 that he allowed. Canales talked about
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: it yesterday and kind of why he did not make
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: a change and why he stuck with Evans the whole
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: night on Sunday night.
• 29:57
  Speaker 4: We want to see. We want to see how he
• 29:58
  Speaker 4: would respond. And I would say, by and large, AK
• 30:01
  Speaker 4: did a really good job. He gave up some big plays.
• 30:03
  Speaker 4: He'd be up here telling you there's a few opportunities
• 30:06
  Speaker 4: that he would love to have back to play differently. And,
• 30:09
  Speaker 4: you know, I was able to connect with him on
• 30:11
  Speaker 4: the sideline and just be like, look, this is a
• 30:13
  Speaker 4: great opportunity. You've given up a few plays. You know
• 30:16
  Speaker 4: they're going to come back here. So just be ready
• 30:18
  Speaker 4: for the next op because you're going to get that.
• 30:21
  Speaker 4: You know, there are games where JC's sitting there and
• 30:24
  Speaker 4: he's like, he's bored. because they're not throwing on that side. Well,
• 30:28
  Speaker 4: like there comes a time when the quarterback's got to
• 30:31
  Speaker 4: make a decision and he's got to go someplace with it.
• 30:34
  Speaker 4: And so it was about opportunity. And it was also
• 30:36
  Speaker 4: about just letting the Caleb be out there and just
• 30:38
  Speaker 4: play the game, you know, and it's different. I think
• 30:41
  Speaker 4: can all, you know, say this about, you know, sometimes
• 30:43
  Speaker 4: when a backup quarterback kind of comes in, in the
• 30:46
  Speaker 4: second half and does really well, but then they go
• 30:48
  Speaker 4: to the next game and they have to start and
• 30:51
  Speaker 4: the team gets to kind of study them and evaluate them,
• 30:53
  Speaker 4: you know? So there's a different mindset and mentality that,
• 30:56
  Speaker 4: that AK had to put himself in. He hadn't really
• 30:58
  Speaker 4: been in a while to come out here, play this
• 31:00
  Speaker 4: entire game from that spot. I expect he'll continue to
• 31:03
  Speaker 4: improve off of this one, and he'll be ready for
• 31:06
  Speaker 4: the challenge.
• 31:07
  Speaker 3: He only had back. PFF put out the tweet yesterday.
• 31:10
  Speaker 3: Evans was only, though, fifth in highest passer rating against
• 31:14
  Speaker 3: this weekend. 142.6 was fifth. Sauce Gardner was targeted. He
• 31:19
  Speaker 3: was a 156.3 this weekend against Washington.
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: There you go, Evans. There you go, baby. Although there's
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: worse out there. I am thinking that 197 yards allowed
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: in his coverage had to be top of the week, though.
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: I'm thinking, unfortunately. So now the question is, what do
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: you do with a Caleb Evans, right? Like, he just
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: explained why they stuck with him last night. Will they
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: stick with him for the Philly game? Will they go
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: outside the organization bone to try to find somebody? I
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: would not mind that at all. Shaw Smith-Wade's an interesting
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: dude because he played 17 coverage snaps in the slot
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: the other night. Most of the slot was Mary. It
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: was a big slot, a lot against tight ends and
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: stuff like that. But Shaw Smith-Wade didn't allow, they didn't
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: throw a target in his coverage. the other night. So like,
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: do you move Shaw Smith Wade outside? I don't know, man,
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: but a Caleb Evans, I'm not sure. I don't want
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: to be heartless about it, bone. I want to take
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: a cue from Mac junior here. I want to be
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: heartless about it because he is thrown into a spot
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: where this, this is not the role they envisioned for him, right?
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: He's a gunner and a backup and a damn good gunner,
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: but it does make you think, shoot, we need about
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: another five games worth of Probably of a different starter.
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: Who the heck is it going to be?
• 32:31
  Speaker 3: And it's an interesting spot, too, because while you try
• 32:36
  Speaker 3: to navigate your way to the point in the year
• 32:39
  Speaker 3: when your main guys come back, the NFL trade deadline, Mac,
• 32:44
  Speaker 3: is not that far away. It's November 10th. So we're
• 32:47
  Speaker 3: actually not that far off. So do they think that
• 32:50
  Speaker 3: they can get by with... Some stopgaps for another month
• 32:54
  Speaker 3: or so with their guys coming back sometime in November,
• 32:58
  Speaker 3: late November? Or do they have to go outside and
• 33:01
  Speaker 3: try to make some sort of deal for somebody? Someone
• 33:03
  Speaker 3: that's out there and also not always easy to find
• 33:06
  Speaker 3: corners to get you by. Those are hot commodities. Jerry
• 33:10
  Speaker 3: Jones also acquires most of the defensive players out there. Well,
• 33:14
  Speaker 3: to that point, the folks in Detroit kept bringing up
• 33:18
  Speaker 3: Porter Jr. over and over again. They were so pissed
• 33:21
  Speaker 3: that they did not make that trade for a corner.
• 33:24
  Speaker 3: And I think we all understand why, Bo, after watching
• 33:26
  Speaker 3: Bryce and T-Mac do work the other night. ESPN's NFL
• 33:31
  Speaker 3: page today, players that may be traded within the next month.
• 33:35
  Speaker 3: Keyshawn Nixon, the corner for the Packers, came up. He's
• 33:39
  Speaker 3: also got return ability. The team that acquires him is
• 33:44
  Speaker 3: on the hook for a prorated portion of his $ 4.
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: 3 million salary. that's something to look at there.
• 33:52
  Speaker 3: Packers are also looking for offensive line help, too, so
• 33:55
  Speaker 3: keep that in mind. But they take a guy named
• 33:57
  Speaker 3: Rasheed Walker back. That's the only cornerback on that particular
• 34:03
  Speaker 3: list there.
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: That's why I brought him up. Let me read a
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: couple of texts here. All Things Carolina says, AK played
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: like he had been shot. Okay, then. He is not
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: following Matt Jr. 's crew of feeling bad for Caleb Evans. Dr.
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: Suave says, did y'all see Troy Pride Jr. said he
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: had a great workout in Charlotte? Oh, my God, I
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: hope not. So he's still at this bone? Because last
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: week he was basically trying to drop hints on social
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: media and Hey, Panthers, I'm a former Panther. I'm available here, baby,
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: if you need me. And then a Panther fan said, no,
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: we good. And then Troy Pride said, you're still not
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: forgetting 2020, are you? So now is he teasing that
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: he might be working out here? Please tell me, Bone,
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: he just like went to the local gym in Charlotte
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: and lifted and did some reps. He got Willie Pete
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: on that tweet. But what are you working out? Willie
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: got him.
• 34:52
  Speaker 3: Right above that, Primetime Carolina says, brother, you were at
• 34:55
  Speaker 3: Planet Fitness.
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: Good job. Okay, so you used the same joke I
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: just did.
• 34:58
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: Right there. You were at the gym.
• 35:01
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: Anyway.
• 35:01
  Speaker 3: Although some people took it serious that he got a
• 35:03
  Speaker 3: workout here. I don't think that's what up. what he
• 35:06
  Speaker 3: was referring to.
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: Willie P was involved in this? Yeah, Willie P said,
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: where was the workout?
• 35:10
  Speaker 3: Meaning like, hey guys, where did he work out in Charlotte?
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: What gym did he work out in? I like to
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: toss up some, I like to toss some weight up
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: myself in a local gym. Maybe we can hook up
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: and I can spot you. You're a fellow banger and clinger.
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: I've been looking for a spotter. I'm known to leg
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: press 220 pounds, yo.
• 35:26
  Speaker 2: Take that, Eric McLean, you Mizzou hater.
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: Was P going off on me and McLean and all
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: the Mizzou haters yesterday? I know KB had to go
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: home because of a family situation. And Bone, the P-Man
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: got the Rolaids Relief Man of the Year Award goes
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: to P-Man here at WFNZ. Was he doing the Mizzou
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: winding thing? Anybody know? fit i assume so again i
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: was involved in my own.
• 35:58
  Speaker 3: Uh fracas yesterday so i uh i wasn't really paying
• 36:01
  Speaker 3: that much attention to what was around me yesterday all
• 36:03
  Speaker 3: right i guess no i was involved in a in
• 36:06
  Speaker 3: a social media scroll it sounds important sounds very important
• 36:09
  Speaker 3: uh i'm guessing this the fact i'm not getting an
• 36:12
  Speaker 3: answer i guess means no one paid attention to poor
• 36:14
  Speaker 3: willie yesterday I.
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: Always pay attention to Willie. I thought Finney would have
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: something for me. Finney just, yeah, it's the first time
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: I couldn't get an answer out of Finney. I was
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: not given any intel. I will do some digging. Okay, okay.
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: I'm going to go out on a limb and say
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: he was whining on behalf of Mizzou.
• 36:30
  Speaker 3: The odds, the Vegas odds say yes. The money's coming
• 36:33
  Speaker 3: in on Willie whining. When we come back, plenty of
• 36:36
  Speaker 3: college sports stuff. ACC Hoops Media Day underway in Charlotte.
• 36:41
  Speaker 3: Dave Doran with praise for Wake Forest. More on the
• 36:44
  Speaker 3: Beamer situation. And why exactly is Portnoy and Barstool gone
• 36:49
  Speaker 3: from the Fox pregame show? Sports Radio 92.7 WFNZ.
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: Do, do, do, do, do, do.
• 37:12
  Speaker 2: Da, da, da, da, da. Da, da, da, da, da.
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: Da, na, na. Okay, okay.
• 37:27
  Speaker 2: I can't.
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: I gotta stop it. I got to stop it. Got
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: a little aggressive there. Got a little aggressive. What a talent.
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: That is James Shrugmaiden's audio message to us this morning
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: with his version of every time we touch the Duke-Cameron
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: Indoor Stadium staple. Somebody is ready for ACC tip-off in Charlotte,
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: which I guess started yesterday, Bone. But a lot of
• 38:06
  Speaker 1: the big dogs locally, including Shire and the Blue Devils,
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: Malone and Carolina and Ganey and NC State will be
• 38:13
  Speaker 1: tomorrow here in Charlotte.
• 38:15
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Boy, you talk about... One talented man, that's James Formaden.
• 38:22
  Speaker 3: He can sing, he can dance, whatever you need from
• 38:25
  Speaker 3: my man, he can do it for you.
• 38:26
  Speaker 1: His Duke basketball text about a recruit that they are
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: looking at for the 2042 class, a kid that is
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: two years old, Boney, that they're like, his information that
• 38:39
  Speaker 1: he sends while we're talking about Panther football or college
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: football is, and no one is talking about Duke basketball
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: class of 2040 is really remarkable.
• 38:48
  Speaker 3: He commits to that daily. Some call it useful information, sir.
• 38:52
  Speaker 3: He's texting to me, by the way. Don't worry about what.
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: He's doing, all right? Y'all don't have a personal Duke
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: 2040 recruiting class line? that you can get on. Hey,
• 39:02
  Speaker 1: they got their latest Australian the other day, Luke Paul,
• 39:05
  Speaker 1: 6'5 guard there. Oh, man. Yeah, that's a big get.
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: That's a big get. James told me all about him.
• 39:10
  Speaker 1: He does kind of educate me, though, so I shouldn't
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: bash him. You know what I mean? It does kind
• 39:13
  Speaker 1: of like.
• 39:14
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: I actually need a Carolina version of him that can
• 39:17
  Speaker 1: keep me up to date on their recruits for 24 hours.
• 39:19
  Speaker 3: You know how they say when certain teams are in sports,
• 39:21
  Speaker 3: that sport's better off for it? When a team is good,
• 39:24
  Speaker 3: that sport is better off for it. When James is
• 39:27
  Speaker 3: involved in the show, we're better off for it.
• 39:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: Everybody agree with that?
• 39:31
  Speaker 3: Whether you admit it or not, this show does its
• 39:33
  Speaker 3: best when James is involved.
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: Put it on the poll, Guillermo. Does everybody agree with that?
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: I kind of agree with Bono. I like when JFM's texting.
• 39:42
  Speaker 1: He's kind of entertaining. James, I think we like you
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: after all.
• 39:45
  Speaker 3: Well, Finney's a college basketball nut, so he does read
• 39:47
  Speaker 3: his text when they come in.
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: That's true. That's true. Hitting the sauce says that James
• 39:52
  Speaker 1: musical performance sounded like a butt dial with a guy
• 39:54
  Speaker 1: driving to work, humming a song. He doesn't know the
• 39:57
  Speaker 1: words to we've all been there before. I feel like,
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: all right, let's get to some college football stuff right now.
• 40:04
  Speaker 1: Dave Doran yesterday had his presser bone to kick off
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: wake week. The lead up to this game will be fun.
• 40:12
  Speaker 1: Deke fans are starting to get frisky and I love it.
• 40:14
  Speaker 1: And you should be with, with that team that you have.
• 40:18
  Speaker 1: And then NC State, I mean, I know I'm going
• 40:20
  Speaker 1: to sound like I'm going to get a Wolfpack Mac
• 40:22
  Speaker 1: as making excuses, but you look at the way NC
• 40:25
  Speaker 1: State has played since the Virginia debacle. And by the way,
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: the Virginia debacle looks worse almost every week because of
• 40:31
  Speaker 1: what Florida State did to them, to the Hoos, and
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: what West Virginia did to the Hoos. But if they bone,
• 40:38
  Speaker 1: if C.J. Bailey simply knows what to do and executes
• 40:41
  Speaker 1: it on that final play, they have a win over
• 40:44
  Speaker 1: Vanderbilt at a conference and they have the win over Louisville.
• 40:48
  Speaker 1: And they're sitting there, Bone, with just one loss. It
• 40:50
  Speaker 1: would feel completely freaking different. It would be a week
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: zero loss, albeit not a good performance. And that is
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: one that you can bury and move on from. But
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: they had trouble burying that because they had a horrible
• 41:04
  Speaker 1: loss along the way that made it see, you know,
• 41:06
  Speaker 1: you've got the two now. You've got the Virginia and
• 41:08
  Speaker 1: the Vanderbilt, right? But they outplayed Vandy. Like, that's the thing. Like, Virginia,
• 41:12
  Speaker 1: they got absolutely smoked. But Vandy, like, they were, I
• 41:15
  Speaker 1: thought they were the better team in that game. So
• 41:18
  Speaker 1: I don't know if Wolfpack fans want to hear this.
• 41:20
  Speaker 1: I understand state fans with Dave Dorn are kind of like, oh,
• 41:23
  Speaker 1: here we go. He's about ready to win seven or
• 41:25
  Speaker 1: eight for us again. But I do like the way
• 41:27
  Speaker 1: they have played Bones since the Virginia game.
• 41:31
  Speaker 3: I have, I'm sorry, I was going to say about
• 41:33
  Speaker 3: Wake Forest real quick. I have questions about how a tarnation,
• 41:36
  Speaker 3: excuse my language, is Wake Forest not a ranked football team?
• 41:41
  Speaker 3: Their one loss is to Miami. I know that Purdue,
• 41:44
  Speaker 3: they had to fight what they won. They found some
• 41:47
  Speaker 3: dominance in some of their wins here. Not only Mac
• 41:50
  Speaker 3: in the... In the coaches poll, they're not ranked. They
• 41:54
  Speaker 3: are behind Oklahoma State, Boise State, and Nebraska in the votes.
• 41:58
  Speaker 3: I'll tell you right now, you line up Wake Forest
• 42:00
  Speaker 3: versus Nebraska right now, Wake Forest is beating Nebraska.
• 42:03
  Speaker 1: What would Coach Rule say about that, though?
• 42:05
  Speaker 2: He'd say, you know, I used to coach in that
• 42:08
  Speaker 2: state there, up there in the mountains, Western Carolina, the Catamounts.
• 42:11
  Speaker 2: I coached the Panthers. Wake Forest, they got the— They
• 42:15
  Speaker 2: got a weird thing going on there. They got a deacon,
• 42:18
  Speaker 2: but he's a demon. It's kind of weird.
• 42:20
  Speaker 1: It's kind of like, oh, you're this good guy, but
• 42:22
  Speaker 1: you're scary. Thank you, Coach. Thank you for that.
• 42:25
  Speaker 3: But I'm just saying that Wake Forest deserves to be
• 42:27
  Speaker 3: a ranked football team. I don't like what they're doing
• 42:30
  Speaker 3: and how they're treating my hometown. I would say save
• 42:32
  Speaker 3: that for 745. I will save it for 745 because
• 42:35
  Speaker 3: I want to get into it then.
• 42:37
  Speaker 1: Duke's in one of the polls ranked, but not in
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: the other. We're going to discuss Duke and Wake. Do
• 42:41
  Speaker 1: they really deserve to be ranked teams? Are they being
• 42:44
  Speaker 1: done wrong here? Also, Kentucky back dropped. This is kind
• 42:47
  Speaker 1: of embarrassing. Kentucky dropped out of the polls after beating
• 42:51
  Speaker 1: South Carolina. I thought they were. Were they not still
• 42:53
  Speaker 1: in one of them? They're in one of them, but
• 42:55
  Speaker 1: the other one, they fell out. Did they really? They
• 42:57
  Speaker 1: were like, you had to go to overtime to beat
• 42:58
  Speaker 1: that team?
• 42:59
  Speaker 3: In the AP poll, they were ranked at the bottom
• 43:01
  Speaker 3: of the top 25.
• 43:02
  Speaker 1: They were out of the top 25. That is funny, man.
• 43:04
  Speaker 1: I think it's a little disrespectful, honestly. That is a trip.
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: Speaking of South Carolina, Brad Crawford was writing an article
• 43:12
  Speaker 1: about the report from the Post and Courier about how
• 43:16
  Speaker 1: like it would cost 40 to 50 million dollars to
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: get rid of beamer and the entire staff and they
• 43:20
  Speaker 1: really don't have people that want to step up and
• 43:22
  Speaker 1: spend the money to do that um and all the
• 43:24
  Speaker 1: reasons that they're cash strapped at south carolina right now
• 43:27
  Speaker 1: um renovation you know all this stuff and he actually
• 43:31
  Speaker 1: said okay he tweeted out i didn't include this in
• 43:33
  Speaker 1: the article because it's not fact it's it's opinion but
• 43:36
  Speaker 1: he said my theory is that south carolina leaked that
• 43:41
  Speaker 1: information and in order as a fundraising effort, in order
• 43:44
  Speaker 1: essentially to get it out there and get the rich
• 43:47
  Speaker 1: South Carolina donors to say, holy crap, if we don't
• 43:50
  Speaker 1: give money, Shane Beamer's going to be here for another season. Ah,
• 43:53
  Speaker 1: chess move. And it's very believable. I'm not going to say, like,
• 43:58
  Speaker 1: we don't know if that's the case, but wouldn't you
• 44:00
  Speaker 1: believe that is possible?
• 44:02
  Speaker 3: Yeah, because, I mean, the way things are going, off
• 44:06
  Speaker 3: of that collapse, for all of a sudden, Matt, there
• 44:09
  Speaker 3: will be articles that Beamer's safe the next morning. Seemed
• 44:12
  Speaker 3: a little bit, wait a minute, how exactly, I understand
• 44:16
  Speaker 3: what the article said about the finances, but the timing
• 44:21
  Speaker 3: of that was very like, oh, they just blew a
• 44:23
  Speaker 3: lead and all of a sudden it comes out that
• 44:24
  Speaker 3: Beamer's safe.
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: Very coincidental, is it not? So I definitely see Crawford's point.
• 44:29
  Speaker 1: I can see it. Are the rich folks not, you know...
• 44:33
  Speaker 1: getting in touch with people down there saying, hey, just
• 44:35
  Speaker 1: tell me what number I put on this check. Get
• 44:37
  Speaker 1: them out of here. Is there not that much of that?
• 44:40
  Speaker 1: And they feel like they've got to stir that up.
• 44:42
  Speaker 1: So that's something interesting. Meanwhile, John Summerall said, John Summerall,
• 44:47
  Speaker 1: the Florida coach, said this South Carolina team they play
• 44:50
  Speaker 1: this week is the most talented team they will have
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: played all season.
• 44:56
  Speaker 3: Anybody buying that load of BS? I believe that John
• 44:59
  Speaker 3: Summerall was playing the coach speak game there.
• 45:01
  Speaker 1: No doubt. Now, Dave Doran said about Wake, he said,
• 45:05
  Speaker 1: I've been here 14 years and State Fair is like,
• 45:07
  Speaker 1: we know. But anyway, he said, I've been here 14 years.
• 45:10
  Speaker 1: This might be the best Wake team I've ever faced.
• 45:13
  Speaker 1: That one I could see. That sounds more believable, although
• 45:16
  Speaker 1: you could certainly debate it, right? you know title game
• 45:20
  Speaker 1: but like um the summer all thing you're right bone
• 45:23
  Speaker 1: that's one where it's like i would do if i
• 45:26
  Speaker 1: was in the presser and i was a media member
• 45:28
  Speaker 1: i go up to him do the larry david look
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: where you think somebody's lying and you just twist your
• 45:32
  Speaker 1: head back and forth and you just stare at it
• 45:34
  Speaker 1: i would do that to john summer really do.
• 45:35
  Speaker 3: You think back the way john summer all is in
• 45:38
  Speaker 3: his coaches meetings this week in private he's thinking boy
• 45:40
  Speaker 3: this team is really special no he's saying we need
• 45:43
  Speaker 3: a bounce back and here's the Here's the team they're
• 45:45
  Speaker 3: going to do it against. Mac, I'm going to speak
• 45:47
  Speaker 3: directly to my longtime friend, Darius Rucker, who I like
• 45:52
  Speaker 3: to call Hootie, who had a group of friends called
• 45:54
  Speaker 3: the Blowfish back in the mid-90s. Hootie, I need you.
• 45:58
  Speaker 3: I know you love South Carolina. I need you to
• 46:00
  Speaker 3: pull up that wagon wheel, man. That wagon wheel you
• 46:03
  Speaker 3: got full of money. And maybe start this buyout for
• 46:06
  Speaker 3: Dave Beamer.
• 46:07
  Speaker 1: Are you going to make me sing my Hootie song again?
• 46:10
  Speaker 2: The Gamecocks make me cry. We are really screwed. Hold
• 46:17
  Speaker 2: my chick. Multiple people pointing out. I never knew that song,
• 46:22
  Speaker 2: by the way, until you told me. I didn't know
• 46:24
  Speaker 2: the dolphins make him cry. I never realized until about
• 46:28
  Speaker 2: three years ago.
• 46:29
  Speaker 3: That is the Miami Dolphins. That is the Miami Dolphins.
• 46:31
  Speaker 3: I thought, oh my gosh, he must love animals at
• 46:34
  Speaker 3: the ocean.
• 46:35
  Speaker 1: He gets so emotional at SeaWorld. Flipper makes him just
• 46:38
  Speaker 1: ball uncontrollably. No, you moron. It's the Miami. Oh, he's
• 46:40
  Speaker 1: a Dolphins fan. Yeah, he's a Dolphins fan. Dolphins fan
• 46:43
  Speaker 1: and Gamecock fan. Hootie, how's your fall going, bro? All right.
• 46:47
  Speaker 1: Let's get to the fact that multiple people are texting us, Bone,
• 46:50
  Speaker 1: and saying, did y'all see Matt Rule's cameo on Lanterns?
• 46:54
  Speaker 1: I actually saw a clip of it. And yes, some
• 46:57
  Speaker 1: of you that are saying, Mac, I know you're not
• 46:59
  Speaker 1: watching this because the superhero show, you're right about that.
• 47:01
  Speaker 1: But Matt Rule sounds like Bone, the executive producer, is
• 47:04
  Speaker 1: a big Husker fan. And, like, they needed a college
• 47:07
  Speaker 1: football coach, like, watching a recruit. So there's Matty Robe, baby,
• 47:11
  Speaker 1: doing some acting.
• 47:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah, he had a comment on it yesterday that I,
• 47:14
  Speaker 3: you know, I really don't think I'm going to be
• 47:15
  Speaker 3: going to Hollywood anytime soon.
• 47:18
  Speaker 1: Imagine him getting an Oscar and giving it an acceptance speech. Oh, man.
• 47:23
  Speaker 1: Real quick.
• 47:24
  Speaker 3: You would just see people in the crowd back. He'd say, oh,
• 47:26
  Speaker 3: you know what I mean? Hey, what's up with you, Chalamet?
• 47:28
  Speaker 1: I like him a lot. Oh, my God. You know
• 47:29
  Speaker 1: what I'm saying? Hey, is Jay-Z here? I know Jay-Z.
• 47:32
  Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying? I had a seven-year plan
• 47:33
  Speaker 1: for this award. You know what I mean?
• 47:34
  Speaker 3: It'd be random.
• 47:35
  Speaker 1: The music would be played forever. Oh, my God. Panther
• 47:37
  Speaker 1: Bo says the lyrics would be, I only want to
• 47:40
  Speaker 1: fire you. That's the Beamer Hootie song right there. Bo
• 47:44
  Speaker 1: was a good one. Panther Bo. Panther Bo, you finally
• 47:47
  Speaker 1: sober up after partying in Charlotte, baby? I saw him
• 47:49
  Speaker 1: out there in his personalized Panther Bo jersey. He was
• 47:52
  Speaker 1: in town for the game the other night. Picked a
• 47:54
  Speaker 1: good one to fly in here for.
• 47:55
  Speaker 3: Man got told to leave his parents' house yesterday morning.
• 48:00
  Speaker 1: Portnoy. We need to mention this real quick. We don't
• 48:02
  Speaker 1: have a lot of time, but we teased it, so
• 48:04
  Speaker 1: I want to make sure I put it in here.
• 48:05
  Speaker 1: So he's done with the— college football pregame show on
• 48:10
  Speaker 1: Fox leading up to the big noon kickoff game. It
• 48:13
  Speaker 1: feels like bone. This was inevitable from the day he
• 48:15
  Speaker 1: was hired. Like this was not going to work long-term.
• 48:18
  Speaker 1: Was it like with the way that he was going
• 48:21
  Speaker 1: to talk trash? It's, it's a face painting Michigan fan
• 48:24
  Speaker 1: that talks all this trash about Ohio state. He believes
• 48:28
  Speaker 1: it was him ticking off Ryan day and the Buckeyes
• 48:31
  Speaker 1: that basically got him to removed. You can't like a
• 48:34
  Speaker 1: guy like that bone. is not going to last on
• 48:38
  Speaker 1: a pregame show of a big-money partner of a conference.
• 48:41
  Speaker 1: You know what I mean?
• 48:42
  Speaker 3: It had a short-shelf life. They probably maxed it out
• 48:46
  Speaker 3: for a year-plus. Andrew Marchand, Mac, the most dialed-in media
• 48:51
  Speaker 3: writer from The Athletic, on his podcast yesterday said, I
• 48:54
  Speaker 3: didn't actually hear the full thing, but I saw his tweet.
• 48:57
  Speaker 3: He did say, yes, it was indeed Ohio State that
• 49:00
  Speaker 3: got Portnoy removed from the game. I believe it does Petty.
• 49:03
  Speaker 3: The Petty State University. But see what Ohio State is
• 49:07
  Speaker 3: going to do now, though. Barstool is going to want that.
• 49:11
  Speaker 3: That's great for Portnoy if Ohio State did remove him
• 49:14
  Speaker 3: because now you're just going to feed into the Barstool
• 49:16
  Speaker 3: way where now Portnoy is going to have that to
• 49:19
  Speaker 3: use against them for whatever reason. he wants hey i'm
• 49:21
  Speaker 3: here for it it was a bad idea to put
• 49:22
  Speaker 3: him on the pregame show probably if you're fox but
• 49:24
  Speaker 3: i'm here portnoy for the damage you did in about
• 49:27
  Speaker 3: a year making fun of nc or nc oh my
• 49:29
  Speaker 3: god what was that ohio state and ryan day i
• 49:32
  Speaker 3: thoroughly enjoyed that When we come back here on the
• 49:36
  Speaker 3: Mac and Bone radio program on this Tuesday, what the
• 49:39
  Speaker 3: bleeps come up at 725. But first, Atlanta routed the
• 49:43
  Speaker 3: Saints last night. The NFC South seems like it might
• 49:46
  Speaker 3: be drunk again. Despite the injuries, should the Panthers be
• 49:49
  Speaker 3: considered the favorites in this very odd, bizarre division? Sports
• 49:54
