- 2:58Speaker 1: it's clearly us man man anyway, short bearded dude, I

- 3:05Speaker 1: for that advice. We're an awful stubborn Should we try
- 3:08Speaker 1: Mike Lacet and strike out. We have two strikes on
- 3:10Speaker 1: this boat. I think we ought to wave the white. Thanks,
- 3:13Speaker 1: but we can't do it right now.
- 3:15Speaker 2: I brought him up on a different phone line. Just
- 3:17Speaker 2: see again, I'm on a different phone line.
- 3:20Speaker 4: Okay, all right, and he said, if it works, we
- 3:22Speaker 4: can go to fifteen.
- 3:23Speaker 2: Okay, let's give it work. We're done. But we're gonna
- 3:25Speaker 2: try it.
- 3:25Speaker 1: All right, let's give it a shot. Eric Krakauer, thank
- 3:27Speaker 1: you for bearing with us. I'm retiring.
- 3:30Speaker 2: Do you have us?
- 3:31Speaker 1: Eric?
- 3:31Speaker 2: Oh oh, you got us lost again? No?
- 3:35Speaker 1: No, no, no, all right, all right, man, sorry, yeah,
- 3:41Speaker 1: all right, that's all right.
- 3:42Speaker 2: Dang, thank you? All right?
- 3:44Speaker 1: Oh man, God, how many owls we got to clean
- 3:47Speaker 1: up today? Bon And this has been the messiest damn
- 3:49Speaker 1: show yet. This is an embarrassing performance for us. And
- 3:51Speaker 1: that's for us. Oh my goodness, I got pooped on
- 3:54Speaker 1: by a dog yesterday.
- 3:55Speaker 2: That's our bad. I'm going to make an executive I
- 3:58Speaker 2: feel the same.
- 3:59Speaker 1: Bone got pooped on by a dog, and that actually
- 4:02Speaker 1: wasn't as bad as this feeling right now of complete
- 4:06Speaker 1: failure of getting a guest on the radio.
- 4:08Speaker 2: I have made an executive I mean, I booked a guess.
- 4:10Speaker 2: I can't.
- 4:10Speaker 1: I can't, I can't manage the phones. Also, I've got
- 4:13Speaker 1: an executive decision. Bone, I made an executive decision. We
- 4:16Speaker 1: are going to refund everybody their money for these two segments. Okay,
- 4:20Speaker 1: we're gonna refund everything you paid. We'll be refunded in
- 4:23Speaker 1: full for the two guest segments that went completely Haywire
- 4:27Speaker 1: and horribly all right, I promise to do that.
- 4:29Speaker 3: There's a movement still, that new that new dog Murphy,
- 4:34Speaker 3: the cords of the of the Fund. No, he's not here,
- 4:37Speaker 3: he's not here. He can't possibly do this from home.
- 4:40Speaker 3: I don't think. Oh my goodness.
- 4:41Speaker 2: All right, So.
- 4:42Speaker 1: Anyway, now what are we gonna do? Yeah, let's call
- 4:44Speaker 1: an audible man. Let's go with this panther topic bone
- 4:47Speaker 1: that I put on the cutting room floor and was
- 4:50Speaker 1: always got a panther topic.
- 4:51Speaker 5: In the change.
- 4:52Speaker 1: It was gonna be tomorrow, but let's just go with it.
- 4:54Speaker 1: We've talked a ton of hornets and we'll probably end
- 4:56Speaker 1: up doing some more hornets now before we get out
- 4:59Speaker 1: of here. I just literally thought, we're going to do
- 5:02Speaker 1: a hornet's call segment next segment instead of the guests.
- 5:05Speaker 1: And then I realized we can't do that either. The
- 5:09Speaker 1: phones what weren't for callers or guests. So anyway, I
- 5:12Speaker 1: will do some hornets here in light of the Miles
- 5:14Speaker 1: Bridge's trade before we get out of here. But let's
- 5:17Speaker 1: talk about this panthers conversation.
- 5:20Speaker 2: Okay. So we had Bryce young.
- 5:22Speaker 1: Bone ranking ninety eighth on the NFL Player's top one
- 5:25Speaker 1: hundred right, which was a surprise to us, but a
- 5:28Speaker 1: very pleasant surprise and indicative of the respect he's earning
- 5:32Speaker 1: with his peers around the league. That's why I liked
- 5:33Speaker 1: it so much. You had Derek Brown and only Derek
- 5:37Speaker 1: Brown make the entire top one hundred. See, there's only
- 5:40Speaker 1: about eight already unveiled or ten, I think from the
- 5:43Speaker 1: top one hundred. With the NFL players list, they're going
- 5:46Speaker 1: down from one hundred to one. Pete Prisco did his
- 5:49Speaker 1: whole list the other day. Miles Garrett number one, by
- 5:51Speaker 1: the way, so his number one player was traded in
- 5:53Speaker 1: the off season, but had Derek Brown ninetieth and had
- 5:58Speaker 1: no other Panthers on the list. And I guess I
- 6:01Speaker 1: could be mad bone, but last year he had no
- 6:03Speaker 1: Panthers and no Derek Brown on the list, which was absurd.
- 6:08Speaker 1: I want to ask you this question, how many Panthers
- 6:11Speaker 1: truly do you think should be on a top one hundred.
- 6:16Speaker 2: Well, I think trying to not.
- 6:17Speaker 1: Go to Homerville on this, which is hard for me,
- 6:20Speaker 1: but like, how many truly do you think should be
- 6:22Speaker 1: top one hundred players? I think Darred Brown definitely at
- 6:27Speaker 1: least four. I gotta be honest, I'm really surprised that
- 6:30Speaker 1: Bryce Young made a Top one hundred. I didn't think
- 6:32Speaker 1: if you would have asked me this a week ago,
- 6:35Speaker 1: I probably would have placed Bryce in there, but he
- 6:37Speaker 1: made it.
- 6:38Speaker 3: But Mac, I would say that j. C. Horn is
- 6:40Speaker 3: definitely a top one hundred player. I think Devin Woyd
- 6:44Speaker 3: is a top one hundred player, and I think Jaylen
- 6:47Speaker 3: Phillips I think is probably on the cusp of that.
- 6:50Speaker 3: I think one of the most underrated players in all
- 6:52Speaker 3: of football is Merrick so I think that he is
- 6:56Speaker 3: right there on the edge of that. But JC Horn
- 6:57Speaker 3: definitely you can make a case for at least four
- 7:00Speaker 3: and that's not even counting team back yet. On offense, well,
- 7:03Speaker 3: I think is gonna be there relatively soon. Yeah, I
- 7:06Speaker 3: mean I'm trying to learn. No, I know that we're
- 7:07Speaker 3: not gonna get that many Panthers on there because of disrespect,
- 7:10Speaker 3: But Horn, to me, is the most obvious one that
- 7:12Speaker 3: should be on that list.
- 7:13Speaker 2: Yeah. I thought that last year too. Merrig Man, he's
- 7:16Speaker 2: something else back there too. Man. I thought that too.
- 7:19Speaker 5: Man.
- 7:20Speaker 1: I thought jac Horns had been on there last year
- 7:22Speaker 1: and he didn't make the Top one hundred. And he
- 7:25Speaker 1: also did not really get a lot of respect when
- 7:27Speaker 1: ESPN went positioned by position and ranked the corners. Like,
- 7:30Speaker 1: let's just put it this way. If you were to
- 7:32Speaker 1: rank the top three Panther players in order, how would
- 7:35Speaker 1: you rank them?
- 7:37Speaker 3: Top three Panther players, Derek Brown won right, Derek Brown
- 7:40Speaker 3: is one, j C two, j C two. We haven't
- 7:46Speaker 3: seen Devinloyd and Jabob Phillips as Panthers yet based off
- 7:51Speaker 3: of the contracts and the pedigree, because the Merrick is
- 7:55Speaker 3: right there too. Man, with those guys, I think, so
- 7:58Speaker 3: it's all on defense.
- 7:59Speaker 1: I think of the top top five players, I would
- 8:02Speaker 1: probably go brown Horn and Jalen Phillips. And I know
- 8:05Speaker 1: some people are out there saying, hey, I'll get an ope,
- 8:07Speaker 1: he don't look at the pressure numbers.
- 8:09Speaker 4: Man.
- 8:09Speaker 2: Now.
- 8:09Speaker 1: The only problem is too Jalen Phillips has had trouble
- 8:12Speaker 1: staying healthy, so that that that that is a true rub.
- 8:16Speaker 3: If I gave you five, I think, just to extended out,
- 8:19Speaker 3: I'd go brown Horn, Lloyd, Phillips, and Merrick all on defense,
- 8:24Speaker 3: and then t macaffter is six.
- 8:26Speaker 2: I'd say. The thing with Lloyd is.
- 8:32Speaker 1: He really I guess you can say the year before
- 8:34Speaker 1: last was pretty improved. You know, last year was obviously
- 8:40Speaker 1: like Jalen Phillips has now had multiple seventy pressure seasons.
- 8:43Speaker 1: Even he's not getting rushed, Jalen Phillips run defense. I'm
- 8:47Speaker 1: telling you something. Panther fans are undervaluing like he is
- 8:51Speaker 1: a complete too, you know, two pronged player. He he will,
- 8:54Speaker 1: he will, he will set the edge for us, which
- 8:57Speaker 1: has been a weakness for us, and he will get
- 8:58Speaker 1: after the quarterback. And if you get him down, he's
- 9:00Speaker 1: gonna pressure him and there's a good chance someone else
- 9:03Speaker 1: is gonna get him down. So I would go Brown,
- 9:06Speaker 1: Horn and Marrick. I don't think Horn had his best
- 9:09Speaker 1: year last year. The metrics actually say that Mike Jackson
- 9:13Speaker 1: was better than j. C. Horn, But I don't think
- 9:16Speaker 1: the metrics tell the whole story. Just look how inactive
- 9:21Speaker 1: Horn has to be a lot of times because people
- 9:23Speaker 1: aren't even you know what I mean. Yeah, Like that's
- 9:25Speaker 1: the thing too, if you're covering someone and they look
- 9:29Speaker 1: that way and don't throw over there. You did your
- 9:31Speaker 1: job on that play. Mike Jackson got a lot more
- 9:33Speaker 1: tested than J. C.
- 9:34Speaker 2: Horn. I do think j. C.
- 9:36Speaker 1: Horn's got a chill with the handsiness. The penalties got
- 9:39Speaker 1: ridiculous at times, and I know, I know, we always
- 9:42Speaker 1: defend him. Hey, he should have got that penalty, but
- 9:45Speaker 1: clearly bone the refs are watching him. So I don't
- 9:47Speaker 1: think it was best year, but I would still put
- 9:49Speaker 1: him at number two. It's on this team. It's like
- 9:53Speaker 1: Fitty at Sweaty Betty's Gentleman's Club. You just got to
- 9:56Speaker 1: keep your hands to yourself there, Fitty.
- 9:57Speaker 4: What's that address for Sweaty Betties? Off the air well belly.
- 10:04Speaker 4: This has been for four years. You can't complain a
- 10:06Speaker 4: lot of people.
- 10:07Speaker 3: A lot of people are saying Mike jack and then
- 10:10Speaker 3: Damian Lewis back, I know a guy that you love getting.
- 10:13Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 10:13Speaker 2: I mentioned Damian Lewis last week. Would he be the
- 10:15Speaker 2: number one offensive guy on the list? Lewis?
- 10:18Speaker 1: Is he our best offensive football player? I think is
- 10:20Speaker 1: the way to phrase that, right, It's either him or
- 10:23Speaker 1: t Matt Robert Hunt. Yeah, right, I think it's in that.
- 10:28Speaker 1: Hopefully those three guys. Hopefully Hunt's going to stay healthy.
- 10:31Speaker 1: Hopefully this season Bryce enters that equation if he has
- 10:34Speaker 1: a big year, should be Hopefully Damian Lewis and Mike
- 10:37Speaker 1: Jackson are two most underrated players, you know, I just
- 10:42Speaker 1: looking at the way they played. Damian Lewis just comes
- 10:44Speaker 1: to work every damn day lunch. Pale doesn't need any
- 10:47Speaker 1: attention and just play some great left guard for us.
- 10:50Speaker 2: Man. He really does.
- 10:52Speaker 1: And I'm not saying I'm not saying he hasn't had
- 10:54Speaker 1: some health issues here and there, but it's been short
- 10:57Speaker 1: term stuff. Robert Hunt obviously longer term. But yeah, I
- 11:01Speaker 1: would say d Lou very well might be our best.
- 11:03Speaker 3: Would you play Merriget in the underrated category as well?
- 11:06Speaker 3: From from a national perspective, I think definitely.
- 11:09Speaker 1: Although Bucky Brooks putting you put him on a list lately,
- 11:11Speaker 1: I'm I'm on a list overload. I think it was.
- 11:14Speaker 1: It was something to the effect of like top ten
- 11:17Speaker 1: Trayvon's I think he's number one on that list. His
- 11:21Speaker 1: ears are another doubt. I hadn't really thought you got
- 11:23Speaker 1: Trayvon Walker, right, Yeah, spelled differently, right, We're not spelled differently.
- 11:29Speaker 4: I don't know.
- 11:29Speaker 1: I don't we got Trevin too, We got a Trevin
- 11:31Speaker 1: you including Trevin's or just Trayvon's.
- 11:33Speaker 2: See, this is what happens when our phone line doesn't work.
- 11:36Speaker 1: Mack and Bone got to talk more and more stupidity
- 11:39Speaker 1: could ensue Fitty.
- 11:40Speaker 3: Any updates on the phones being worked on here at all,
- 11:45Speaker 3: not at this time, just time you give us.
- 11:47Speaker 2: I feel like back.
- 11:48Speaker 3: We're talking to the UH to the duke energy here.
- 11:51Speaker 3: Do you have an estimated time of the phone's return.
- 11:53Speaker 3: They're gonna give us a window, give us a window
- 11:55Speaker 3: to be in your studio.
- 11:57Speaker 4: But momentarily, did DVR Day fix the phone last time?
- 12:01Speaker 3: Didn't he put on his his work at his work belt.
- 12:03Speaker 3: Get on there, DVR Dave, get to work, baby, get
- 12:06Speaker 3: to work. He was on hold with AT and T
- 12:08Speaker 3: for over twenty four hours.
- 12:10Speaker 2: That's a commitment, man. Maybe we should be nicer to
- 12:12Speaker 2: Day than we are Bone, you know what I mean.
- 12:13Speaker 2: Maybe someone should be back in that group chat responding
- 12:16Speaker 2: that group chair pH. Least we could do.
- 12:18Speaker 3: There's a Facebook group chat with myself that was formed
- 12:21Speaker 3: by DVR Dave, myself, Mac Fiddie and Bailey and DVR
- 12:25Speaker 3: Day's been talking to himself for the last four months,
- 12:27Speaker 3: including set up a dinner routing that no one attended.
- 12:31Speaker 1: According to Texters Holland Won Holland, where minds at?
- 12:37Speaker 2: Where my mind's at right now?
- 12:39Speaker 1: Victor Hovelin won the playoff over Scottie Scheffler.
- 12:43Speaker 2: How did that ball not go in? Did you just
- 12:45Speaker 2: see that? Butte? You know it's in slow mo. But
- 12:48Speaker 2: how did that putt not drop? Who's playing it straight
- 12:51Speaker 2: toilet po Scheffler?
- 12:54Speaker 1: Yeah, Hoveland won. So that was Scotty. Yeah, that was Scotty.
- 12:57Speaker 1: So they're gonna be rowing all the way home. Nine
- 13:00Speaker 1: number says Norwegian's going nuts. When are they leaving Boston
- 13:03Speaker 1: or have they relocated permanently? Somebody brought up a great
- 13:08Speaker 1: point earlier about all the European fans that have been
- 13:12Speaker 1: here for the entire World Cup so far, about.
- 13:15Speaker 2: When do they go home? Do they not have jobs
- 13:17Speaker 2: to get home to?
- 13:18Speaker 3: It's like your guy Freddy from Germany, Well yeah, it's
- 13:21Speaker 3: all these salt, Yeah, yeah.
- 13:22Speaker 1: Do they not have? Like now, if I'm not mistaken,
- 13:27Speaker 1: don't over in Europe, don't they have way more off
- 13:30Speaker 1: days and leave than we get here?
- 13:32Speaker 6: Like?
- 13:32Speaker 2: Isn't that a very European thing?
- 13:34Speaker 1: Like they believe in America that we work too many
- 13:37Speaker 1: hours and then it hurts productive productivity. Isn't I believe
- 13:41Speaker 1: that's a like a mindset, at least in some countries.
- 13:43Speaker 1: I mean these people, do they have like summers off
- 13:46Speaker 1: or do they have like I don't know, like eight
- 13:49Speaker 1: weeks vacation or some crazy because they having a time
- 13:52Speaker 1: of their life. It ain't stopping any time.
- 13:54Speaker 3: They got a taste of food with seasoning and they
- 13:56Speaker 3: can't get enough of this stuff. Mag There's a theory
- 13:59Speaker 3: that on Friday show that throwing to be blew out
- 14:02Speaker 3: the phone lines on his PEP talk.
- 14:04Speaker 1: Oh yef, that is possible. That was the last guy
- 14:06Speaker 1: we talked to you I know about don't know about the.
- 14:08Speaker 3: Rest of the This is when we would have MMG
- 14:10Speaker 3: call in and he'd still get through on broken phones.
- 14:13Speaker 1: All right, Yeah, Apparently Scheffler missed the putt that would
- 14:16Speaker 1: have sent it to whole two of the playoff, and
- 14:17Speaker 1: we saw how it missed.
- 14:18Speaker 2: It lipped out.
- 14:19Speaker 1: It was a brutal way to lose for Scottie Scheffler.
- 14:24Speaker 1: Let's see here, this texter says I, this texta says,
- 14:27Speaker 1: I work for a phone company. I will personally drive
- 14:30Speaker 1: over there and fix the phones if you guys will
- 14:33Speaker 1: stop labbin to fill time. I enjoyed this segment, sir,
- 14:39Speaker 1: all right. Enjoyed this segment Cembretty text back. It just says, hey, Bone,
- 14:44Speaker 1: where's sweaty Betty? Sincerely, Phil Nicholson, Carolina. Mike says Europeans
- 14:51Speaker 1: get like twenty weeks of holiday. My god, it's gotta
- 14:53Speaker 1: be an exaggeration, right, but that's what I was saying, Like,
- 14:56Speaker 1: I believe they do get more time off.
- 15:00Speaker 2: Valuation day. This is how we just cornelius rob.
- 15:03Speaker 1: They get way more vacation time, and a lot of
- 15:06Speaker 1: countries have gone four day work week.
- 15:09Speaker 3: Europeans typically receive thirty five to forty three off days
- 15:14Speaker 3: per year.
- 15:14Speaker 1: Okay, so that's it. Maybe they just used the whole
- 15:16Speaker 1: thing right to be here for like a month. I
- 15:18Speaker 1: guess that's what I'm saying. Man, here's the thing though,
- 15:22Speaker 1: I was gonna complain bone about how much we have
- 15:24Speaker 1: to work here in America compared to those folks, but
- 15:28Speaker 1: like we're not gonna get a sympathy. Is this called
- 15:30Speaker 1: If this is called workbone, how many people would sign
- 15:32Speaker 1: up for this?
- 15:33Speaker 2: What has more day?
- 15:33Speaker 3: We do is come here and goof off every day?
- 15:36Speaker 3: What has more off days? The European through our phone lines?
- 15:39Speaker 3: That's close. That is definitely closed. I guess see the
- 15:43Speaker 3: problem I mag and I have without the guests is
- 15:45Speaker 3: we just talked to each other and we don't know
- 15:47Speaker 3: where this is.
- 15:47Speaker 1: Kind of lost the plot on that, damn, because I
- 15:50Speaker 1: was gonna ask where Bryce ranks among panther players.
- 15:52Speaker 3: People realize now the guests break up, you and I
- 15:54Speaker 3: talking to each other. Otherwise we're just gonna talk all
- 15:57Speaker 3: day with China. You guys, Maybe Fitty I should have
- 16:00Speaker 3: fit Daddy. I'm happy to Hey y'all, how's that Wilmington
- 16:02Speaker 3: girl doing?
- 16:03Speaker 2: Fitny? Any updates? She's good.
- 16:08Speaker 3: Promising? How about this that sounded like friend zone? How
- 16:12Speaker 3: about this back for a tease coming up next? We
- 16:15Speaker 3: would have talked to Michael Sett.
- 16:17Speaker 1: How about Finny plays the role Michael set We just
- 16:19Speaker 1: interviewed Fitty. No, that's probably any idea of back we're
- 16:22Speaker 1: doing next, that's probably not good.
- 16:23Speaker 2: We got to get back into the Hornets here, don't we.
- 16:26Speaker 2: I think so.
- 16:26Speaker 1: I feel like we got to That's what we're gonna
- 16:28Speaker 1: do with Mike. Mike was one of those guys that
- 16:31Speaker 1: was he he had to report out Thursday. I think
- 16:33Speaker 1: it was that the Hornets were talking to Jalen Brown.
- 16:37Speaker 1: I guess we could update the whole what's the latest
- 16:39Speaker 1: on the Hornets, Jalen Brown Chat, I guess we could
- 16:42Speaker 1: update that.
- 16:42Speaker 2: You know, yeah, it's coming up next.
- 16:44Speaker 3: Jalen Brown Chatter on Sports Radio ninety two seven WFNZ.
- 16:48Speaker 2: You're home for use. Let's se apping.
- 17:13Speaker 7: You can make it the case about picks and salaries
- 17:15Speaker 7: and all this stuff. I think it really just boiled
- 17:18Speaker 7: down to we watched the playoffs and we just don't
- 17:21Speaker 7: think he can hang at that level, and that those.
- 17:23Speaker 2: Are all fair. Those are all physically or bysally. You guys,
- 17:29Speaker 2: I think the IQ six team playoff games in this guy.
- 17:31Speaker 7: I think you can get over the IQ stuff because,
- 17:33Speaker 7: like you said, I think it trended well last year.
- 17:34Speaker 7: I think being the second, the clear second best guy
- 17:37Speaker 7: on a team is going to really kind of force
- 17:40Speaker 7: him to recalibrate some of the ways he plays. But
- 17:43Speaker 7: I think it's more of the physicality stuff, and I
- 17:46Speaker 7: think that's a completely fair bet for Charlotte. I think
- 17:49Speaker 7: when you combine this trade with the Bridges trade that
- 17:52Speaker 7: happened today that we're gonna talk about, I think Charlotte
- 17:54Speaker 7: has come out looking awesome.
- 17:56Speaker 2: Just to like put those together.
- 17:58Speaker 7: Great work by the Hornets continue to just kill it
- 18:01Speaker 7: under their new regime.
- 18:03Speaker 1: All right, So not every Hornets fans please bone with
- 18:06Speaker 1: the fact they traded LaMelo, certainly, and I still don't
- 18:10Speaker 1: know if I'm really pleased about it. The Miles Bridges
- 18:13Speaker 1: trade less, but still some anger. I think the combination
- 18:17Speaker 1: two with fans, Hey, we finally had this team that
- 18:20Speaker 1: was playing really good ball, and then you trade half,
- 18:22Speaker 1: you know, almost half forty percent of this starting lineup
- 18:25Speaker 1: that was putting up these efficiency numbers.
- 18:27Speaker 2: But it does need to be set. And some of
- 18:30Speaker 2: you are probably screaming at your radio.
- 18:31Speaker 1: I don't care what the national media says, but Zach
- 18:34Speaker 1: low there is telling you how much he loves what
- 18:36Speaker 1: the Hornets did last week.
- 18:37Speaker 2: Also a Hornets fan, the.
- 18:38Speaker 1: National media, Hornet Zach and the national media in general. Like,
- 18:43Speaker 1: I saw four more places bone and it could be more,
- 18:46Speaker 1: but four more places that graded the Bridges trade Bridges
- 18:50Speaker 1: a first in twenty twenty nine. I was surprised at
- 18:53Speaker 1: you a first away, But when you start reading into
- 18:56Speaker 1: it's like the second worst of like four different teams
- 19:00Speaker 1: picks in twenty twenty nine, it's not near as good,
- 19:03Speaker 1: along with a second in twenty twenty seven. It's not
- 19:07Speaker 1: near as good as that unprotected twenty thirty three that
- 19:11Speaker 1: we got. That is a golden asset. What did Sam
- 19:14Speaker 1: Quinny You don't have to use only in twenty thirty three.
- 19:17Speaker 1: By the way, that's something that whatever they want to
- 19:20Speaker 1: do between now and then, he's got that in the
- 19:21Speaker 1: in the holster there. So that is that is as
- 19:24Speaker 1: important as anything going on here. And you get Grayson
- 19:26Speaker 1: Allen and Royce O'Neill. I'm surprised, I will say this,
- 19:30Speaker 1: I'm surprised we hadn't gotten Like we've gotten complaints about
- 19:33Speaker 1: what Jeff Peterson is doing, We've got the threats to
- 19:35Speaker 1: sell season tickets and all this stuff bony, But what
- 19:38Speaker 1: we haven't gotten is Grayson Allen Royce O'Neil involved two
- 19:41Speaker 1: as two wing players that I think are perfect to
- 19:43Speaker 1: come off our bench and shoot the rock as we
- 19:46Speaker 1: are apt to do as a team. I'm surprised bone
- 19:49Speaker 1: that we haven't got a lot of tar heel fans
- 19:53Speaker 1: like I don't want to have to roost for Grayson Allen.
- 19:55Speaker 1: I was anticipating that sort of energy. Are you like,
- 19:58Speaker 1: were you in say you have to deal with that
- 20:01Speaker 1: or not? Really, there's some there's some tripping jokes on there.
- 20:03Speaker 1: But I say this though, though those are good, save
- 20:05Speaker 1: those fours.
- 20:06Speaker 3: I say this though, when Grayson Allen is on your
- 20:09Speaker 3: NBA team and he's out there getting scrappy with other teams,
- 20:12Speaker 3: you're gonna root for him. He's had a pretty good
- 20:14Speaker 3: NBA career. He was at sixteen points per game two
- 20:17Speaker 3: years ago. And Royce O'Neill is a more veteran, better
- 20:20Speaker 3: version of Josh Green. They're both better shooters. The bench
- 20:24Speaker 3: back has the chance to be pretty good, whether it
- 20:26Speaker 3: be the young guys. If these guys stick around in
- 20:28Speaker 3: Vat's ear, uh, these guys are pretty good. Deck beats
- 20:31Speaker 3: his guys that started a lot in Phoenix, Allen and O'Neil.
- 20:35Speaker 1: Grayson Allen. Last year Bone was sixteen point five points
- 20:38Speaker 1: a game. It was his career high. Now, the efficiency dropped,
- 20:41Speaker 1: but he got more usage last year I think the way.
- 20:45Speaker 1: He also was injured too. His three point shooting dropped
- 20:48Speaker 1: to thirty five percent. But the six years before that
- 20:52Speaker 1: forty two over those six years before, dude, that's dead
- 20:56Speaker 1: eye shooting, man.
- 20:58Speaker 2: And then you.
- 20:58Speaker 1: Throw in nas Reed and his point shooting as a
- 21:01Speaker 1: stretch four they get rid of Bridges, who was not
- 21:03Speaker 1: stretching anything out, wasn't causing the defense at all to
- 21:06Speaker 1: come out and respect his shot. All these guys will
- 21:09Speaker 1: come out and respect their shot. Royce O'Neil Bone's a
- 21:12Speaker 1: thirty nine percent career shooter. So it's just so you
- 21:16Speaker 1: see what they're doing, man, just adding more floor spacers
- 21:19Speaker 1: and shooters. Now here's the thing. I do want to
- 21:21Speaker 1: throw this in there.
- 21:22Speaker 3: All these guys are have playoff experience as well that
- 21:25Speaker 3: they're adding to this.
- 21:26Speaker 2: We do have to throw this in here.
- 21:27Speaker 1: I would not bet my life, Bone, wouldn't bet your life,
- 21:30Speaker 1: wouldn't bet Finny's life that both of those guys O'Neill
- 21:34Speaker 1: and Grace Allen definitely play here because as you know,
- 21:37Speaker 1: it is fluid. Is all get out with Jeff Peterson.
- 21:41Speaker 1: Free agency starts tomorrow, though you're allowed to start talking
- 21:44Speaker 1: to free agents tomorrow. Do you have a free eight
- 21:48Speaker 1: Because we talked about Jayalen Brown. I guess the latest
- 21:51Speaker 1: from Michael Scotto is the Hornets and Boston had exploratory
- 21:55Speaker 1: talks about Jaylen Brown. Boston was trying to get nas
- 21:59Speaker 1: reed in the d Other reports have said the Hornets
- 22:02Speaker 1: do not want to trade Nasri, So I don't know
- 22:04Speaker 1: if that's where a thing stopped.
- 22:05Speaker 3: We have an update on Jalen Brown this morning, by
- 22:07Speaker 3: the way, from Vincit is there something else going on?
- 22:09Speaker 3: Vince Goodwill of ESPN, he of the Participation Trophy. Uh,
- 22:13Speaker 3: how can I take this guy to Doude. A week ago,
- 22:16Speaker 3: we mentioned during the show that the Blazers, who have
- 22:18Speaker 3: a lot of young players and assets, are involved for
- 22:21Speaker 3: Jalen Brown. We now had two more Western Conference teams,
- 22:25Speaker 3: the Clippers all in for Jalen Brown and the Denver
- 22:29Speaker 3: Nuggets in for Jalen Brown.
- 22:30Speaker 2: Oh, that's an interesting one there.
- 22:31Speaker 3: So that that would probably involve Aaron Gordon, maybe Jamal
- 22:34Speaker 3: Matt basically Denver said this week and everybody but Jokich's.
- 22:39Speaker 2: Up for grabs.
- 22:39Speaker 3: So yeah, I don't know anyest, You're starting to see
- 22:42Speaker 3: more teams every couple of hours start to get in
- 22:45Speaker 3: there for Jailen.
- 22:45Speaker 1: And that means we're probably less likely. Michael Scotto said,
- 22:49Speaker 1: the talks, the exploratory talks kind of cooled between Charlotte.
- 22:52Speaker 2: You have the most assets. But the one to give
- 22:53Speaker 2: him up though is the questions.
- 22:54Speaker 1: But but that's the thing though, if they want draft picks,
- 22:57Speaker 1: we have a lot of assets. But does Boston want
- 23:01Speaker 1: to like decline severely or do they want to bone
- 23:08Speaker 1: get ballers back in right? Probably where they can just
- 23:12Speaker 1: kind of keep things going. I have to be honest
- 23:15Speaker 1: with you. I have a question here. I know we
- 23:16Speaker 1: got to I want to get into like the fact
- 23:18Speaker 1: that free agent talks can start tomorrow, and you know,
- 23:21Speaker 1: the Hornets have that mid level exception. They also have
- 23:24Speaker 1: fifty million under the luxury tax as well, so they
- 23:27Speaker 1: have cap money, they have assets, so there's there's a
- 23:30Speaker 1: ton that they can do.
- 23:31Speaker 2: So we got to start talking.
- 23:32Speaker 1: About what, you know, what do we think or what
- 23:34Speaker 1: do we want them to do moving forward? But I
- 23:36Speaker 1: have a question, like, yeah, maybe I asked this the
- 23:39Speaker 1: other last week too, what is it with Boston wanting
- 23:42Speaker 1: to trade Jalen Brown? Is it just a personality thing?
- 23:46Speaker 1: Like do they see him as kind of a pain
- 23:47Speaker 1: in the rear end?
- 23:48Speaker 2: I don't.
- 23:49Speaker 3: I don't know the salary. Maybe maybe they feel like
- 23:52Speaker 3: they need to change it up a little bit. Because
- 23:54Speaker 3: I don't I really don't have the answer as to
- 23:58Speaker 3: why I don't. I don't have the answer to that.
- 24:01Speaker 3: I mean as a matter of fact, based off of
- 24:06Speaker 3: what they did last year, Mac that team was not
- 24:10Speaker 3: supposed to be that good last year, and they were.
- 24:13Speaker 3: Why do they Tatum's great?
- 24:15Speaker 2: Right?
- 24:16Speaker 3: Is Tatum that much better than Jalen Brown? They actually
- 24:19Speaker 3: last year because they brought Jason Tatum back. They actually
- 24:23Speaker 3: got worse last year when Jason Tatum came back, not
- 24:25Speaker 3: saying that he didn't like work his way back in there.
- 24:28Speaker 3: But is Jalen Brown?
- 24:29Speaker 6: Like?
- 24:30Speaker 3: Why why build around Tatum and not Brown? I don't
- 24:34Speaker 3: have the answer to that.
- 24:35Speaker 2: Why not keep building around both? I don't know.
- 24:38Speaker 1: I don't know if they like once they tried to
- 24:40Speaker 1: trade him and the honest like, I get it, why
- 24:41Speaker 1: you would trade him in a Yiannis move? Once that
- 24:43Speaker 1: fell through, did they feel like, shoot, we can't keep
- 24:45Speaker 1: them around?
- 24:47Speaker 2: Yeah? I gets awkward. I have no idea.
- 24:49Speaker 1: Anyway, let's stop worrying about the Celtics. Let's worry about
- 24:52Speaker 1: the Charlotte Hornets. Where what is your wish?
- 24:55Speaker 3: Like wit so they find out we have a white
- 24:56Speaker 3: shooter compared to Larry Birder around here?
- 25:00Speaker 1: Yeah, I was waiting for Michael Scotto to say, like
- 25:02Speaker 1: they asked for Khank nipple in the trade.
- 25:04Speaker 2: We did lose bone.
- 25:05Speaker 1: If you want to make big money trades, we did
- 25:07Speaker 1: lose our big salary guide to try to match salaries
- 25:11Speaker 1: in Miles Bridges true. With that said, though we have
- 25:14Speaker 1: a freaking nanny ninety booboo. We have a forty point
- 25:17Speaker 1: eight million dollar trade exception, so we don't need to
- 25:20Speaker 1: match salaries, right, I have a nanny nanny booboo. I
- 25:23Speaker 1: love this text. I forget who sent this in. Somebody said,
- 25:26Speaker 1: I think Mike it's a QC Dylon. Is Michael Scotto
- 25:29Speaker 1: getting his intel from Dwight Trudeau?
- 25:33Speaker 2: I used that.
- 25:33Speaker 1: Same joke last week. Sir, we have great sense of humors.
- 25:36Speaker 1: You are brilliant, brilliant and hilarious. I don't care what
- 25:40Speaker 1: anybody tells you. I don't care if you have a
- 25:42Speaker 1: wife at home that tells you you're not as funny
- 25:44Speaker 1: as you think you are.
- 25:44Speaker 2: All right, yo oh did I just say that on
- 25:46Speaker 2: the air? All right? So who are you putting?
- 25:49Speaker 1: If it's not Jalen Brown bone A lot of people
- 25:51Speaker 1: want Jalen Brown to be next up. We talked about
- 25:54Speaker 1: that a couple hours ago. If it's not Jalen Brown,
- 25:57Speaker 1: I keep coming back to Mitchell Robinson.
- 25:59Speaker 2: It's not a great free agent class, by the way.
- 26:01Speaker 1: So maybe trades are the more likely way to do this.
- 26:04Speaker 1: I keep coming back to Mitchell Robinson. Bone target.
- 26:08Speaker 3: Jalen Duran's restricted, but he may want forty million dollars
- 26:11Speaker 3: a year, by the way, So go ahead and see
- 26:12Speaker 3: you later, Jayalen Duran mac one guy I thought would
- 26:16Speaker 3: fit in as a backup point guard and sort of
- 26:20Speaker 3: give Christian Anderson room to grow. I thought Jose Alvarado
- 26:24Speaker 3: would have been a great backup point guard. He's going
- 26:27Speaker 3: back to the Knicks already, oh is he? But I
- 26:29Speaker 3: thought he'd be a nice once he sobered up from
- 26:31Speaker 3: the party, got in that attitude and toughness that they're
- 26:33Speaker 3: trying to grow on this team. But of course he's
- 26:36Speaker 3: going back to the dam So.
- 26:37Speaker 2: Are you not okay? Because this is what this is?
- 26:38Speaker 1: Maybe the conversation that we have not had Bone's not
- 26:41Speaker 1: a lot of them. What are we missing? We've had
- 26:43Speaker 1: even more out of the dank phone. But anyway, what
- 26:45Speaker 1: are we missing from this team? I would offer up
- 26:48Speaker 1: the reason I say, Mitchell Robinson, I would offer up
- 26:51Speaker 1: rim protection. Yeah, there still is a dearth of rim
- 26:55Speaker 1: protection Musa. Mussa can certainly switch and guard everything, and
- 26:58Speaker 1: Musa can give you some rim.
- 27:01Speaker 2: Obviously, he's limited.
- 27:02Speaker 1: That a bit by his size cock though, that's why
- 27:06Speaker 1: I caught his Yeah, but he's also a Gudes's Yeah,
- 27:10Speaker 1: he's take a little more mobility and he's gonna kind
- 27:12Speaker 1: of just sit back and drop.
- 27:14Speaker 2: But you're right, is he? But he is he more?
- 27:16Speaker 3: Is he gonna slide in? It's more of a backup
- 27:18Speaker 3: center role. I guess probably right, which is fine, but
- 27:21Speaker 3: he's not I don't. I don't know if Cogbrunner is
- 27:23Speaker 3: going to be your starting center at all unless there's injuries, or.
- 27:25Speaker 2: I would still start Musa.
- 27:27Speaker 1: Yeah, if this lineup plays, I would start Musa nas
- 27:30Speaker 1: at the five and four, and then I would have
- 27:31Speaker 1: Calk and Hans at the five, although actually bone Grant
- 27:37Speaker 1: Williams could be the starting four unless he's used in
- 27:40Speaker 1: a deal. And again, nobody is safe other than Conn
- 27:43Speaker 1: and Brandon. I don't think anybody's safe. And last week
- 27:45Speaker 1: this time would have told you. I would have told
- 27:47Speaker 1: you LaMelo was safe. But unless Grant Williams gets used
- 27:50Speaker 1: to the deal, I would almost play Grant at the
- 27:53Speaker 1: four back up four and Hannas back up five? And
- 27:58Speaker 1: is there a world where calks not to direct back up?
- 28:01Speaker 3: I have a I have a name for you. Mac
- 28:03Speaker 3: an unrestricted free agent the time Ward Robert Williams.
- 28:08Speaker 2: Yeah, he's another name I heard walk a name average
- 28:12Speaker 2: two blocks a game at one point.
- 28:13Speaker 1: He's another intriguing him and Mitchell Robinson may be put
- 28:16Speaker 1: on the intrigue list.
- 28:18Speaker 3: Also the owner of great nicknames the time Ward boo
- 28:21Speaker 3: Butt and Loob Williams.
- 28:24Speaker 2: What was the second one? But you know basketball? Do
- 28:27Speaker 2: you know?
- 28:27Speaker 3: Eric Collins gets a lot of you know what? He
- 28:29Speaker 3: mention his nicknames. Basketball Reference lists their nicknames and for
- 28:32Speaker 3: some reason, uh, oh no, yeah, time Ward, boo but
- 28:36Speaker 3: and Loob Williams. Was it boo butt?
- 28:38Speaker 2: Yes? Bo but? What the heck? I need a story
- 28:42Speaker 2: on that one? B B O O b U T
- 28:44Speaker 2: T Eric.
- 28:45Speaker 1: If we signed him, Eric Collins is definitely using that
- 28:48Speaker 1: one slams and oh.
- 28:51Speaker 2: Do you know what his three nicknames were? No, I
- 28:53Speaker 2: go the time Ward, boo Butt and Loob Williams.
- 28:57Speaker 1: Matt in Greensboro says, uh, backup point guard.
- 29:01Speaker 3: That's the guy you're looking for. Though, Mac is a
- 29:02Speaker 3: guy with Robert Williams, Right, that makes some sense. Yeaes
- 29:04Speaker 3: Mitchel Robinson, but Williams is another one. Miles Turner I
- 29:09Speaker 3: would explore, but then you got to take possibly three
- 29:12Speaker 3: years on and he's not exactly a spring chicken, but
- 29:15Speaker 3: he gives you rim protection and outside shooting. Matt in
- 29:18Speaker 3: Greensboro wants Dennis Shrewder as a backup point guard. Said
- 29:21Speaker 3: the German connection would be great for the rookies. So
- 29:24Speaker 3: do you think we need a back we're talking about
- 29:26Speaker 3: what we need yet for this team. Do you think
- 29:29Speaker 3: we need a backup point guard?
- 29:30Speaker 1: Or are you good with I was kind of becoming
- 29:32Speaker 1: resigned to Christian Anderson be in the backup point guard.
- 29:36Speaker 3: I mean, I don't think he and now it goes.
- 29:37Speaker 3: I don't think it hurts, but I don't think it's
- 29:39Speaker 3: like the most pressing of things. Back by the way,
- 29:41Speaker 3: mag I didn't realize this. Bobby Marks did a whole
- 29:45Speaker 3: what free agents should interest what teams article? Yeah, primer,
- 29:48Speaker 3: he's he says team needs. This is from late Saturday night.
- 29:52Speaker 3: Fifty three million dollars to spend team needs, he said,
- 29:56Speaker 3: backward depth free agents who fit the hornet. So it's
- 29:59Speaker 3: right here gives a whole list, Andfredy Simon's Pat Spencer
- 30:04Speaker 3: gave Vincent Colin Sexton. Now this is before yesterday. I
- 30:08Speaker 3: don't forget too so Wuke Canard.
- 30:10Speaker 1: And we've already filled. We've already gotten our second Duke White, Shooter,
- 30:12Speaker 1: Jim Hardaway, Junior, Queen Grimes, and Norman Powell. So I
- 30:15Speaker 1: don't know if that changes with what they order. They
- 30:18Speaker 1: move on from the guys that guy yesterday and go
- 30:20Speaker 1: forward with those guys now Anfrety Simons and Norman Powell
- 30:23Speaker 1: are pretty I think would be pretty pricey guys on
- 30:28Speaker 1: that list, not not like over the top that they're not.
- 30:32Speaker 1: Norman Powell was an All Star year ago. He's still
- 30:34Speaker 1: got some value out there, and Andfrety Simons was twenty
- 30:37Speaker 1: points per game not long ago, so those guys will
- 30:39Speaker 1: get some money. Colin Sexton back on the list, soodn't he?
- 30:42Speaker 1: How about that?
- 30:42Speaker 2: Yeah? I'm gonna go know on Allen.
- 30:44Speaker 1: I feel like maybe that wasn't the perfect match, bone
- 30:46Speaker 1: that wasn't the e harmony match that we were hoping for,
- 30:49Speaker 1: but it brought in Kobe White, So I can't be
- 30:51Speaker 1: mad at it, you know, I can't be mad at
- 30:52Speaker 1: him and all again that is still we got a
- 30:54Speaker 1: first round picking that trade.
- 30:55Speaker 3: Now, if they keep Grayson Allen, I don't know if
- 30:57Speaker 3: those he might be the guy that instead of those guys.
- 31:00Speaker 1: Right, So this this texture says, let's see here seven
- 31:04Speaker 1: oh four number.
- 31:05Speaker 2: I'll tell you what we need.
- 31:06Speaker 1: We need a star that can run an offense, who's
- 31:09Speaker 1: on off offensive split numbers are amazing, who makes everybody
- 31:12Speaker 1: around him better and gets them clean shot. Oh yeah,
- 31:15Speaker 1: we traded him last year last week. In all seriousness, though,
- 31:20Speaker 1: bone we are missing, like and this is where the
- 31:25Speaker 1: Jalen Brown stuff comes from. We'll see what Con and
- 31:30Speaker 1: Brandon develop into. We are I think we are missing
- 31:37Speaker 1: a really big dog though, to go with those two.
- 31:40Speaker 2: Right.
- 31:41Speaker 1: Yeah, but again I don't think Jeff Peterson is really
- 31:44Speaker 1: you know, he probably wasn't convinced in LaMelo's ability to
- 31:46Speaker 1: stay healthy. Maybe they didn't necessarily love LaMelo as a
- 31:50Speaker 1: player with some of the shot selection. Maybe they didn't
- 31:53Speaker 1: fully trust his defense even though it got better. But
- 31:57Speaker 1: like our Brandon and Miller, you're one to two when
- 32:01Speaker 1: you're contending for an Eastern Conference championship down there, Brandon Miller,
- 32:05Speaker 1: Brandon and con are they you're one two.
- 32:10Speaker 2: Or is there another like the guy?
- 32:14Speaker 1: Eventually those assets are being traded for an absolute big dog,
- 32:17Speaker 1: aren't there the guy we haven't mentioned yet still because
- 32:20Speaker 1: we've talked about Jayleen Brown and I know opinions vary,
- 32:23Speaker 1: but you know, Simonis is still a possibility right with
- 32:27Speaker 1: that trade chip, although it doesn't cover him, remember his
- 32:31Speaker 1: salaries too much.
- 32:32Speaker 2: Like I said, it.
- 32:33Speaker 3: Doesn't cover some bonus in that trade chip. Some of
- 32:34Speaker 3: this stuff back is it's so.
- 32:39Speaker 1: So much cleaning up. Every aisle has been cleanup. Take
- 32:43Speaker 1: itself and take it easy on yourself. All right, let's
- 32:45Speaker 1: go this dude, says am I the only one excited
- 32:49Speaker 1: by the fact that Jeff Peterson is so aggressive and
- 32:52Speaker 1: so active and the national media swears for everything he does. No,
- 32:56Speaker 1: I don't think you're the only one. I mean, the
- 32:57Speaker 1: mellow thing is still I'm still you know, I think
- 33:00Speaker 1: that's the one. We're still trying to get over the
- 33:02Speaker 1: bridges thing. Some of y'all love this man way too much.
- 33:05Speaker 1: But yeah, there is an element of excitement that there
- 33:08Speaker 1: is stuff coming, and also the unpredictability. We don't know
- 33:12Speaker 1: what he's gonna do next or something exciting about that.
- 33:15Speaker 2: You know what I mean.
- 33:16Speaker 1: It's like a woman that dates a dangerous man, a
- 33:19Speaker 1: man that is spontaneous and wild, and she gets excited.
- 33:24Speaker 2: That's how I'm describing.
- 33:26Speaker 1: That's none of us, but gets excited Bo because she
- 33:29Speaker 1: doesn't know what's gonna happen next when she's in a
- 33:31Speaker 1: relationship with him. That's kind of Jeff Peterson is kind
- 33:35Speaker 1: of that dangerous man, you know what I mean, There
- 33:37Speaker 1: is something exciting about it.
- 33:38Speaker 2: I agree, Max.
- 33:39Speaker 3: Someone says any interest in Jamal Murray that that doesn't
- 33:43Speaker 3: make a lot of sense. If Kobe didn you're bouncing
- 33:45Speaker 3: Kobe down to the backup. I like Jamal Murray, Kobe
- 33:49Speaker 3: in the deal. I like Jamal Murray a lot. But
- 33:52Speaker 3: I don't know.
- 33:54Speaker 2: I don't.
- 33:55Speaker 3: You just signed Kobe though, so I don't see how
- 33:57Speaker 3: that really works. Yeah, but then again, I will roll
- 33:59Speaker 3: out with Chef Jeff cook It. Chef Jeff cook It
- 34:02Speaker 3: some meals bone I've never tasted before. Chef Jeff, by
- 34:06Speaker 3: the way, traded our phone lines away. Those meals takes
- 34:10Speaker 3: a little better than the MJ. Chow and Mitchell restaurant.
- 34:13Speaker 2: Though. Oh that was uh, that was old cafeteria food.

- 35:25Speaker 3: So does that mean that the bonus could be on
- 35:28Speaker 3: the way though out in the way out there.
- 35:29Speaker 2: Maybe I don't know, we'll see.
- 35:30Speaker 4: He opted in, and so did Fred Van Vliet for
- 35:33Speaker 4: the Houston Rockets twenty five million dollar player option. James
- 35:37Speaker 4: Harden of the Cavaliers declined his forty two million dollar player's.
- 35:41Speaker 3: Actually he's at twenty betties right now, Betty's Uh, we
- 35:46Speaker 3: come back on the Mack and Boato. It's the rap up.
- 35:48Speaker 3: We actually have to give some love to a college
- 35:53Speaker 3: football legend from the state of North Carolina who made
- 35:56Speaker 3: an announcement today of a very sad nature. We'll pay
- 35:58Speaker 3: our tribute to him when we come back Sports Radio seven.
- 36:08Speaker 5: And during real time last night, I did not see
- 36:24Speaker 5: that happen, and I and like I, I don't none
- 36:27Speaker 5: of our teams saw it happened, because I promise you
- 36:29Speaker 5: if that if we would have seen that happen, we
- 36:31Speaker 5: would have had her back. Unfortunately, this type of happens
- 36:35Speaker 5: every single game to her, and the league and the
- 36:38Speaker 5: refs do absolutely nothing about it.
- 36:40Speaker 2: It's been a minute that you got fined on this podcast.
- 36:43Speaker 5: I have.
- 36:43Speaker 6: But then, like you see the videos of like literally
- 36:47Speaker 6: Kning and and cheap shotting see in the throat, Like
- 36:51Speaker 6: if she did that to any of our teammates, we'd
- 36:53Speaker 6: be pissed.
- 36:54Speaker 1: But like they are.
- 36:55Speaker 6: They're definitely targeting her, and the league and the refs
- 36:59Speaker 6: do nothing to protect her.
- 37:02Speaker 3: There's Sophie Cunningham talking about Caitlyn Clark as the New
- 37:05Speaker 3: York butcher Chop cut of the day occasions in Cornelia's
- 37:09Speaker 3: Inland Fort Mile, Belmont, Dilworth and Carrie. Check him out
- 37:13Speaker 3: on Instagram at n why Butcher Wine Bar.
- 37:16Speaker 2: There you go, Mac.
- 37:17Speaker 3: Very interesting stuff there. From to her of the viral
- 37:21Speaker 3: pointing meme bus she talked about that too on this
- 37:23Speaker 3: week's podcast. She said she is like mortified that that
- 37:26Speaker 3: has become a big thing, and she says it's the
- 37:28Speaker 3: dumbest thing she ever did, but it was making Dewana
- 37:31Speaker 3: Bonner angry. She kept she told Sophie, stop you pointing
- 37:35Speaker 3: me so once she realized it was pissing her off.
- 37:38Speaker 3: That was another incident, by the way, That was the
- 37:41Speaker 3: other incident. There were two incidents last week involving Caitlyn
- 37:46Speaker 3: Clark and Phoenix. This was the other one Bone the
- 37:49Speaker 3: first one the pointing. She says she's mortified that that's
- 37:53Speaker 3: now the biggest meme in America. But she did it
- 37:56Speaker 3: just to make the want about her mad because she
- 37:58Speaker 3: was so mad about her pointing. It's freaking hilarious. But
- 38:01Speaker 3: this one is the incident in their second game they
- 38:04Speaker 3: played last week where Alyssa Thomas at least got suspended
- 38:08Speaker 3: after the fact Bone They didn't even review it, They
- 38:10Speaker 3: didn't even stop the game for that as she basically
- 38:15Speaker 3: puts her fist and plants it right in Caitland Clark's
- 38:18Speaker 3: face after the play and then steps over too. There's
- 38:21Speaker 3: no doubt happened to me with a puppy dog this weekend.
- 38:23Speaker 3: There's no doubt that Caitlyn Clark gets treatment that now.
- 38:28Speaker 3: I hate people to turn this into a whole political thing.
- 38:30Speaker 3: You can't talk about Kaitlyn Clark without people like somehow
- 38:33Speaker 3: turning into some political thing. I don't think it has
- 38:36Speaker 3: to be that, but I definitely think Bone they want
- 38:39Speaker 3: to be physical with her, they want to rough her up.
- 38:42Speaker 3: I'm sure there's some resentment of all the hype that
- 38:44Speaker 3: she gets as well. And Sophie Kenningham one hundred percent right.
- 38:48Speaker 3: I have never seen a league bone that does not
- 38:51Speaker 3: go out of their way like the WNBA to stand
- 38:54Speaker 3: up for a cash cow. That woman is the golden
- 38:57Speaker 3: goose for the WNBA. They should be getting her the
- 39:00Speaker 3: Tom Brady treatment, the Lebron treatment, if you will, And
- 39:03Speaker 3: it feels like it's the exact opposite of that. I
- 39:05Speaker 3: don't get it, man, I don't understand the money that's
- 39:08Speaker 3: coming in now on their salaries, the travel that's been changed.
- 39:12Speaker 3: A lot of that is because of her presence, and
- 39:14Speaker 3: it feels like there's more resentment than appreciation for her
- 39:19Speaker 3: being a part of their league. Mac, we got some
- 39:21Speaker 3: sad news this morning on Good Morning America. Former ECU
- 39:26Speaker 3: and Tennessee Titans legend Chris Johnson announced he's battling als
- 39:31Speaker 3: Lou Garrig's disease. He's having to do the thing where
- 39:35Speaker 3: he talks with his eyes. So that's how far along
- 39:38Speaker 3: he is. You talk about a guy that is a
- 39:42Speaker 3: little underrated, because he in two thousand and nine had
- 39:46Speaker 3: one of the great seasons in sports history with two
- 39:49Speaker 3: thousand rushing yards and five hundred receiving yards, an all
- 39:53Speaker 3: time season for that dude. So sad to see men
- 39:56Speaker 3: a guy only forty years old having a battle. Really, honestly,
- 40:00Speaker 3: one of the cruelest, meanest diseases out there.
- 40:03Speaker 1: That's terrible, man, praying for him and his family. That's
- 40:05Speaker 1: absolutely horrible to hear. That is a vicious disease. Man.
- 40:08Speaker 3: I know that there's a lot of vicious diseases out
- 40:11Speaker 3: there that takes a lot of people, but that one,
- 40:13Speaker 3: that one seems like that seems like a really cruel
- 40:17Speaker 3: one does.
- 40:17Speaker 1: It's horrible, horrible man. Sports today, braves are off today,
- 40:22Speaker 1: Brave Sands are saying thank God after losing yet another
- 40:24Speaker 1: series to the Giants, though the Cardinals starting tomorrow, we
- 40:28Speaker 1: got World Cup man knockout round.
- 40:30Speaker 2: We're we're now hitting a point.
- 40:31Speaker 1: We only had one knockout game yesterday, three a day
- 40:34Speaker 1: now for the next few days. Obviously the US on Wednesday,
- 40:37Speaker 1: but we got Brazil Japan at one, Germany Paraguay four
- 40:41Speaker 1: nine o'clock tonight, Netherlands, Morocco. These are some sweet matchups today, man,
- 40:47Speaker 1: sweet matchups. All right, let's see what we have on
- 40:49Speaker 1: the text line, Bone Texter says old Whopper needs a
- 40:54Speaker 1: biscuit or something sounds angry on the show today. I'm
- 40:58Speaker 1: guessing that's Fitty aka Judge Wapper.
- 41:00Speaker 4: Yes, yeah, that was back when you criticized my sports flash.
- 41:04Speaker 4: I thought we could bond over the Yankees getting swept
- 41:06Speaker 4: by the Red Sox. But somehow you got mad.
- 41:09Speaker 1: Baseball's not going well for me. The Orioles kind of stink.
- 41:12Speaker 1: The Braves are starting to stink. I don't know, man,
- 41:16Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 41:17Speaker 3: Let's go by the way, Brian, when Horse said this morning,
- 41:19Speaker 3: give Draymond Green offs out of his contract. That frees
- 41:23Speaker 3: up money for the Warriors to sign Lebron James.
- 41:25Speaker 2: Oh, there you go, there you go. No, but that
- 41:27Speaker 2: wouldn't that be fit?
- 41:28Speaker 3: Wouldn't that be fitting if Lebron steps in and Draymond
- 41:30Speaker 3: has to go, or we're just gonna resign there in
- 41:34Speaker 3: the minimum or.
- 41:34Speaker 1: Song Oh my goodness, all right, we've got somebody says
- 41:37Speaker 1: Sweaty Betty's is also known as Tassels on Route seventy four.
- 41:41Speaker 1: That's cold, man, that's cold. Textter just said, you're talking
- 41:45Speaker 1: about Europeans with a four day work week. In America,
- 41:47Speaker 1: we call that the Frank Garcia schedule.
- 41:49Speaker 2: Four days.
- 41:50Speaker 1: That's cold, baby, That is cold for a four day
- 41:54Speaker 1: work week, and you must get off every day after
- 41:56Speaker 1: a duke loss?
- 41:57Speaker 2: How was Garcia's.
- 41:58Speaker 1: Scheduled a four tournament work week on Oh my God,
- 42:02Speaker 1: someone texted in and said, Mac love what Jeff Peterson
- 42:06Speaker 1: is doing.
- 42:06Speaker 2: Now, let's figure out a way to get rid of
- 42:07Speaker 2: Grayson Allen. Oh that was LORI. That was from LORII.
- 42:11Speaker 2: He can shoot it, though, y'all put your differences aside.
- 42:13Speaker 2: The man. I'm actually a little disappointed, Bone.
- 42:16Speaker 1: I wanted a lot more tarheel fans making tripping jokes
- 42:19Speaker 1: day by Grayson.
- 42:20Speaker 2: I didn't see a lot of that.
- 42:21Speaker 3: It's been a long, strange trip for old Ga.
- 42:24Speaker 1: Look strange strip to get back here in the state
- 42:27Speaker 1: of North Carolina. This texture says, I just told my
- 42:31Speaker 1: sixth grader to go out and shoot hoops and not
- 42:34Speaker 1: come back hen for six hours. I told him there's
- 42:37Speaker 1: a spot on the hornets in twenty thirty three that
- 42:39Speaker 1: he's playing for Mac Gashouse.
- 42:42Speaker 2: Earl is mad at you, by the way, all right,
- 42:44Speaker 2: what did I do?
- 42:44Speaker 1: Earl?
- 42:44Speaker 3: He tried the chicken sandwich from water Burger and said
- 42:47Speaker 3: its bottom tier? What was right? Didn't you say it's great, Bone,
- 42:50Speaker 3: It's incredible. What's wrong with your taste buds?
- 42:53Speaker 2: Earl? Seriously? What's right?
- 42:55Speaker 3: I think there are some guys that are just out
- 42:57Speaker 3: there just to whatever Max said, as they.
- 43:00Speaker 1: Just want to go opposite of that. You think that's
- 43:01Speaker 1: happening that what never happened on this show. Speaking of that,
- 43:04Speaker 1: good afternoon, y have a good one. We got a
- 43:07Speaker 1: text It says Bone versus Murphy the Puppy is as
- 43:10Speaker 1: lopsided a matchup as Notre Dame and Bama in the
- 43:14Speaker 1: National title game years back.
- 43:15Speaker 2: Can I be honest for a second, Mac, I'm afraid
- 43:18Speaker 2: to go home right now. You gotta roll up them sleeves.
- 43:21Speaker 2: Old Mame's made it so easy for you. There's no
- 43:23Speaker 2: way this guy's gonna nap right.
- 43:25Speaker 1: Oh no, he's gonna be chomping at the bit when
- 43:27Speaker 1: you get home, baby, he'll.
- 43:28Speaker 3: Be chomping my bits. He went for those yesterday when
- 43:34Speaker 3: he jumped in the shower with me. All of a sudden,
- 43:36Speaker 3: it's due.
- 43:36Speaker 2: To the shower. You see what Copeland said? What's that?
- 43:40Speaker 1: Glad to hear that Bone's apartment is a dog and
- 43:42Speaker 1: bony show again.
- 43:44Speaker 2: I'm gonna send him after you Cobley show. See what
- 43:47Speaker 2: he did there?
- 43:48Speaker 1: Oh man, all right, we gotta get oh Ron. The
- 43:51Speaker 1: Plumber's concern you're giving coffee to your new puppy. Is
- 43:54Speaker 1: that a thing?
- 43:54Speaker 2: Bone? That might be a brad?
- 43:56Speaker 3: What's not? Believe every tweet you read there, big fella.
- 43:59Speaker 3: He did stick his head in the coffee bug, but
- 44:00Speaker 3: he didn't sit there and guzzle like a watte. When
- 44:03Speaker 3: bone sarcasm goes wrong on Twitter, we gotta get out
- 44:08Speaker 3: of here.
- 44:08Speaker 2: Someone says, Mac, you're tripping.
- 44:09Speaker 1: And I have no idea what that has craw?
- 44:13Speaker 2: Did I not catch that? Maybe they've been making them
- 44:15Speaker 2: all day and they've gone over my head. I don't know.
- 44:17Speaker 1: All right, we're out of here. Good work out of
- 44:19Speaker 1: the bone Man the Fit Dog. Charlotte Sports Today, Colin
