  Speaker 1: twenty first birthday party at the Hooters in Gastonia, does
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: that make you say these guys are too weird for
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: my needs? Because I gotta be honest there, that stuff
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: sounds weird. There.
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: He thought that's what we should lead with. Pitty thought,
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: we just lead with that, and everybody will gather around
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: the old radio, gather out the wfn Z app baby, Oh,
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: my goodness.
• 3:43
  Speaker 6: All right, that was a story from my twenty first
• 3:45
  Speaker 6: birthday party. Taking out of context. Man, I tell you
• 3:48
  Speaker 6: it got crazy. It got crazy. Your twenty first birthday,
• 3:51
  Speaker 6: didn't it?
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: Anyway, My twenty first birthday resulted in me puking in
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: a cop car. But anyway, I ditress.
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: Why is I not the.
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: You got arrested?
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: No need, No, No, I didn't. I got help back
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: to the to the apartment white Kellen Winslow when against
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: the Dolphins, I also lost. I also lost my shoes
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: as well. Or no, it was one shoe. I had one
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: shoe left. He's in the same time period where you
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: napped in the yard. No, no, this is later. I've
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: already said too much. All right, I'm a role model
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: for the kids. Bone, I'm not proud, and he's taking
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: notes from his next open right now. We'll get him
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: back there. I'm not proud. I'm not proud of these things,
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: all right. Anyway, Plus, I have a seventeen year old
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: son right now, so I feel like these stories Bone
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: have to be shelfed. But yes, yes, there's some things
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: that happen at Old Towson State University. All right, anyway,
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: let's let's jump into the big news with your Carolina Panthers.
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: Adam Schefter had it first last night. The Panthers are
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: signing tight end Darren Waller to a one year deal.
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: Waller was with Miami last season, had three separate injuries
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: two separate stints on the injured list, but when he
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: was playing, he did produce. He had twenty four catches
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: in nine games, averaged eleven point eight yards in attempt
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: still pretty good for a tight end. Six touchdowns in
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: nine games as well. He had his biggest game against
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: the Panthers five catches, seventy eight yards and a touchdown
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: in that game for the Dolphins against the Panthers last year.
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: And there's a familiar face for him here. He was
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: with Daryl Bevell, who was the passing game coordinator in
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: Miami last year, so I'm sure that could be part
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: of this move as well. What do you think about
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: this move? There seems to be varying reactions. There seems
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: to be some people that are like, WHOA, this is huge.
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: There are definitely some people that are like, where are
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: you at on this thing?
• 6:01
  Speaker 6: I think it's certainly worth a shot. I ask why not?
• 6:04
  Speaker 6: He did well against the Panthers last year. That was
• 6:06
  Speaker 6: one of his best games. I'm sure that goes into
• 6:09
  Speaker 6: what they were thinking as well. Definitely his bat auditionistically
• 6:12
  Speaker 6: in addition to that nice Bevil note you brought up there, Well,
• 6:15
  Speaker 6: the tight end room needs some help. We like what
• 6:19
  Speaker 6: Tremble does, we like what we think Mitchell Evans can be.
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: But JT.
• 6:24
  Speaker 6: Sanders, who we thought was going to be the guy,
• 6:27
  Speaker 6: has not been anywhere near the guy ever since he
• 6:29
  Speaker 6: got injured as a rookie. He simply has not produced
• 6:33
  Speaker 6: at a level that we thought. So I think it's
• 6:35
  Speaker 6: one of those things where you give it a shot.
• 6:39
  Speaker 6: There's no harm if it doesn't work out, but who knows,
• 6:41
  Speaker 6: Maybe he you know, the body doesn't hold up, but
• 6:44
  Speaker 6: maybe he does the first half of the year give
• 6:46
  Speaker 6: you eight games of production. I think it's one of
• 6:48
  Speaker 6: those ones where whatever Waller can give you just ride
• 6:52
  Speaker 6: it out and see what he has.
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: There's no harm in this move. I like this, definitely
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: no harm in it, and let's be honest with you.
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: Over the next few weeks, what he has to prove
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: is he is better than JT. Sanders. Like it is
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: that simple. He ain't here to do what Tommy Tremble
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: does and what Mitchell Evans do. Those guys are versatile guys.
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: Now they don't necessarily do some of the things he
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: does receiving wise, but.
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: He ain't here to block.
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: He is here, and I think I've seen the reaction
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: on Panthers Twitter. I think everybody feels the same way.
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: He is here, and it ain't good news for JT. Sanders.
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: It is just not JT's airs is my favorite pick
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: in his draft, my favorite pick in his draft. And
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: I know he's had injury, bad injury luck in his
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: own right bone. But even being out there at camp,
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: I think he did have a catch yesterday, But even
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: watching him in the preseason game, he has three catches
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: that are all just little shorties.
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: Last year, that was the problem last year.
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: He averaged six point six yards a catch last year,
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: like this is supposed to be a dude that's an
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: athletic tight end, that's a mismatch that gets downfield, and
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: he didn't even average seven yards to catch. Meanwhile, Darren
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: Waller is a month away from being thirty four. He
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: averaged eleven point eight yards per catch last year and
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: have five deep catches. Sanders had two catches bone that
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: traveled more than nine yards in the air last year,
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: like the young guy's supposed to be the one getting downfield,
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: but last year it wasn't even close between the two
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: of these guys. So I have to be honest with you, man,
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: I think it might be about time. If Darren Waller
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: shows up stays healthy, it's probably tap out time on JT.
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: Sanders. I think personally he's He's a.
• 8:38
  Speaker 6: Moved tight end that just has so much more upside
• 8:41
  Speaker 6: than we've seen with Sanders. I'm with you, and maybe
• 8:43
  Speaker 6: that was the ultimate downfall of Sanders when I bought
• 8:47
  Speaker 6: all his stock as a rookie and then it's been
• 8:49
  Speaker 6: down Whoever since.
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: Then when we both hyped him up, now he should
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: have packed him up.
• 8:53
  Speaker 6: Put that on the last there's another one there for us, No,
• 8:56
  Speaker 6: I mean, I've I've rooted for the guy. I think
• 8:58
  Speaker 6: he got set back by the type of injury he
• 9:01
  Speaker 6: had early on, who was a neck right, he had
• 9:03
  Speaker 6: the neck thing going on and had that nasty fall
• 9:05
  Speaker 6: against Kada said he has not been the same since then. Unfortunately,
• 9:09
  Speaker 6: what I was trying to look at age thirty four
• 9:12
  Speaker 6: and Darren Waller's been through a lot for a thirty
• 9:15
  Speaker 6: four year old in football and in life, injuries, up
• 9:18
  Speaker 6: and down. Nature was a was a late draft choice,
• 9:21
  Speaker 6: then became a pro bowler. Then he had a weird
• 9:23
  Speaker 6: set with the Giants, and then he's resurface. He missed
• 9:26
  Speaker 6: a year, he went through a lot as a teenager.
• 9:28
  Speaker 6: He's been through He's been through hell and back in
• 9:32
  Speaker 6: his wife. He was certainly a guy that has a
• 9:34
  Speaker 6: story and maybe maybe that's a guy in the room
• 9:36
  Speaker 6: that can that can.
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: Also help out the young guys for all he's seen.
• 9:40
  Speaker 6: I was looking back at, you know, trying to figure
• 9:42
  Speaker 6: out comparisons for thirty four year old tight ends and
• 9:45
  Speaker 6: have sort of moved around a lot, and that came
• 9:47
  Speaker 6: up on Jimmy Graham twenty twenty with the Bears. Jimmy
• 9:50
  Speaker 6: Graham played in all sixteen games, had fifty catches for
• 9:54
  Speaker 6: four fifty six and eight touchdowns.
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: Could you imagine sign up for that?
• 9:57
  Speaker 6: Could you imagine if Darren Waller could give you that
• 10:00
  Speaker 6: this offense with all the other things we're excited about
• 10:03
  Speaker 6: with the high end wideouts, the running game, Bryce's development. Man,
• 10:08
  Speaker 6: if you get out a tight end that's anywhere near
• 10:10
  Speaker 6: that stuff, that would be unbelievable and saying he could,
• 10:13
  Speaker 6: but imagine that they could be could and if he
• 10:14
  Speaker 6: stayed healthy, I mean he basically had twenty four catches
• 10:17
  Speaker 6: in half a season, six touchdowns in half a season.
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: So like, if he stays healthy and produces at a
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: similar rate there and again you all he has to
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: do is be better than JT. Sanders. This dude doesn't
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: have to be because I saw some Panther fans on Twitter.
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: Oh he's a hasband. He was in a Pro Bowl
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: in twenty twenty. Like, we're not asking for the Pro
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: Bowl version. Yes, we're asking for a dude that could
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: be a great red zone threat, like he averaged point
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: seven touchdowns a game. Like, give us that give us
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: red zone threat, give us a tight end that still
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: is a mismatch and can get the ball downfield for you,
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: cause Sanders didn't do that last year. So I love it.
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: Like you said, there's no downside to it. If he
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: ends up getting nicked up and you're like, man, I
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: don't know if he can stay healthy, then I guess
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: you stay with JT.
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: Sanders.
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: But this is going to be a battle, an individual
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: battle between Waller and Sanders.
• 11:14
  Speaker 6: Six yards of catch last year for Sanders, what I'm
• 11:16
  Speaker 6: saying one touchdown. His longest catch last year was eighteen yards.
• 11:21
  Speaker 6: You would think a tight end that can roam in
• 11:23
  Speaker 6: the middle of the field could have a catch longer
• 11:25
  Speaker 6: than eighteen yards, especially for an athletic.
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: Guy like that. I said it earlier. Two catches that
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: travel more than nine yards in the air last.
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: Year, it's not gonna get it done.
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: And then what did he do in the preseason game?
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: Three dinks from Kenny Pickett. You know it's like, oh,
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: more of the same. So anyway, let's get it on.
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: Made the best man beat a third tight end, That's
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: the way I look at it. But yeah, JT. Sanders,
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: you deserve some pressure on that heine right now, bro,
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: because it and some of it's not. But we can't
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: blame the injuries man, Like it's like, you know that
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: neck injury that affect him last year downfield nega dreams
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: the year before like, so at some point, man, you
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: got to play. And it's the same thing for the
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: whole twenty twenty four draft. Class y'all got to come
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: to play this year, Excel, come to play. Trevan Wallace,
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: you got taken out of practice with the ones at
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: the end yesterday big move of the balls faced and
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: practice when Xcel had a great touchdown catch by the way,
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: and there's cherlists with the ones. So this conversation has
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: to be had over the next couple of days about
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: this twenty twenty four draft class. It's you know, we've
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: been talking about here and there, but we need to
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: sit down spend a good ten plus minutes on this
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: twenty twenty four draft class, Boney and who we still
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: believe in.
• 12:39
  Speaker 6: Boy do they need Brooks to be what they thought
• 12:41
  Speaker 6: he was right to really really help this class.
• 12:43
  Speaker 5: Mac.
• 12:44
  Speaker 6: You know, it's a six am hour during football season
• 12:49
  Speaker 6: when the one and only Frank Garcia.
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: Is looking for us this morning. Mac on a text
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: to me this morning.
• 12:54
  Speaker 6: Here you go, baby, he's not blaming Sanders. He thinks
• 12:57
  Speaker 6: it's a play calling problem where they're not throwing passes
• 13:01
  Speaker 6: down the field enough for him. The vertical passing game
• 13:04
  Speaker 6: problem per former NFL player Frank Garcia. Yeah, I mean
• 13:07
  Speaker 6: that's I'm sure it's a combination of both.
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: That's true too, that you know, And we'll look out
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: to look up the Sanders numbers in terms of how
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: many there wasn't that many attempts for him downfield either.
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: But yeah, we'll get into that. We'll get into that
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: as the show goes on. I know this. I've been saying,
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: let's get the let's take the kid gloves off Brice
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: and let's let him throw the football downfield. Let's there,
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: there are there. There have been too many games where
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: Dave Canalis had felt like Bone has tried to not
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: lose the game, you know what I mean? Yes, that's
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: got to end that. So to Frank's point, that definitely
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: needs to end Bone.
• 13:40
  Speaker 7: Can you ask Frank if his contact is working on
• 13:43
  Speaker 7: finding me Panther lingerie to dance and this year.
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: Sure, that's a good point there.
• 13:49
  Speaker 3: We'll circle back to Jac's hands.
• 13:52
  Speaker 6: In my career, i'd say, hey, Frank, good to talk
• 13:55
  Speaker 6: to you. Do you have that though on contact for
• 13:57
  Speaker 6: our producer fee? Frank, good football point, But we need
• 14:00
  Speaker 6: some underwear for Fetti without much coverage, all right, is
• 14:05
  Speaker 6: what we're looking for. I want to be the go
• 14:07
  Speaker 6: between he or much like that.
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: I never mind. I was gonna say the go between
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: and the cheekers, but I'm not kidding.
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I don't know.
• 14:13
  Speaker 3: I don't want to be the layer between me and Garcia.
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: K Town Steve says, Garcia's right, it's the play calling.
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: I don't want to make too many excuses for j T. Sanders,
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: though I don't. I don't want to act like j T.
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: Sanders on in somebody else's offense turns into Shannon Sharp, now,
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: you know what I mean? Like, there's gotta be a
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: little give and take here. I wonder how Mack was.
• 14:35
  Speaker 7: Winning downfield for them, even warm throwing him the football
• 14:38
  Speaker 7: down the field.
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying.
• 14:40
  Speaker 3: I mean, I guess when he gets.
• 14:41
  Speaker 7: Some multiwenty two footage, but like, how many times do
• 14:44
  Speaker 7: you think he was winning down the field and it
• 14:46
  Speaker 7: wasn't and Bryces wasn't thrown on the ball.
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: That's that's what I'm saying, Like, do you do you
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: think he's Shannon Sharp?
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: You know what I mean?
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: Like, let's just let's let's meet in the middle at
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: the very least on this.
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: But j T.
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: Sanders should one hundred have somebody coming in saying, bro,
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: I'm going for your job. Be the best man win,
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: Like at the very least that should be happening for
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: him right now. But we'll talk about it as the
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: show continues. Want to let the seven o'clockers wake up
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: and we'll get into it. But that's an interesting point
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: there about Sanders as well. I want to go to
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: the Hornets Bone. We got a couple interesting Hornets things.
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: The TV deal is great news. It is great news
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: in terms of availability for their product. And man, you
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: can go all the way back to the Bobcats and
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: that goofy c set channel that you literally only got
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: if you had Spectrum Cable. I mean, I had never
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: seen That's the dumbest TV deal I've ever seen in
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: my life. Then Bone, what about Live? Then it gets
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: then it gets a I mean, it's better right with
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: what we had recently with you know, the fandel But
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: that's not on every It's on more than one service,
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: but that is far from on every cable and satellite service. Well,
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: now we find out yesterday the Hornet announced every game
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: that's not a national TV game will either be on
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: Channel nine WSOC or Channel sixty four over the air
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: television Bone for all of those games.
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: That is awesome. Yeah, no, that's incredible. It's huge.
• 16:16
  Speaker 6: The biggest complaint about Charlotte basketball besides the obvious over
• 16:22
  Speaker 6: the years where the team wasn't good was people that's
• 16:25
  Speaker 6: saying they couldn't see the game.
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: So get that out of here.
• 16:29
  Speaker 6: Look, it's not gonna make the people that are mad
• 16:31
  Speaker 6: about Wamelo feel any better, but certainly from the business side,
• 16:35
  Speaker 6: from the fan relations standpoint, that is a huge, huge deal.
• 16:40
  Speaker 6: I love that. Also, if you have YouTube TV MAC,
• 16:43
  Speaker 6: we're big. We're big into college basketball. Also, I'm not
• 16:48
  Speaker 6: saying I'm gonna do it all the time, but now
• 16:50
  Speaker 6: it'll be on YouTube TV. You can also multiview at
• 16:53
  Speaker 6: times if you need to. Where before on the DirecTV
• 16:56
  Speaker 6: that I have both, but the DirecTV you couldn't do that.
• 17:00
  Speaker 6: It's to be more manageable when you're on YouTube TV
• 17:02
  Speaker 6: to surf around a little bit rather than have all
• 17:04
  Speaker 6: these different things.
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: Lock at shoebone. Do you need an alternative on your
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: screen rather than the hornets sometimes? Is that what you're
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: telling me?
• 17:11
  Speaker 6: Well, I'm saying maybe when it gets late in a year,
• 17:14
  Speaker 6: like a couple of years ago, and then and then
• 17:16
  Speaker 6: then and maybe they they're they're a little bit down
• 17:19
  Speaker 6: on the Windno, I'm just saying that it's it's it's
• 17:21
  Speaker 6: it's good that it's on YouTube TV on.
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: S OC where you can handle it better on YouTube.
• 17:25
  Speaker 6: Bones wheels are turning, His wheels are turning. Also distracted
• 17:30
  Speaker 6: by one once again, Frank Garcia. He says he has
• 17:33
  Speaker 6: a used Panthers jockstrap for Fitty to wear.
• 17:38
  Speaker 3: Oh, that'll do.
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: You'll, you'll wear a used panther jockstrap. There's one thing,
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: your dances.
• 17:44
  Speaker 7: There's a lot of things that me and Brinson Butler
• 17:46
  Speaker 7: you're not have in common.
• 17:47
  Speaker 5: Mac.
• 17:47
  Speaker 3: I'm not afraid to wear another man's job.
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: That would be a twist. That would be a kind
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: of gross twist on the victory dances. Oh my goodness.
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: So any know, and Garcia is good, try to sell it.
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: That's awesome for Hornets fans over the AIRTV, doesn't matter
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: what service you have over the AIRTV for all their
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: games except the national TV games. And we know this.
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: The full schedule is out today, right BOM.
• 18:14
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I think three pm is the target time full
• 18:16
  Speaker 6: schedule be out today. But we do know that the
• 18:20
  Speaker 6: Hornets will be involved in an NBC quadruple header on
• 18:24
  Speaker 6: President's Day. They will be playing the opening game of
• 18:27
  Speaker 6: that noon on NBC. And why are they on there
• 18:31
  Speaker 6: because it's the LaMelo Ball return to Charlotte on President's
• 18:35
  Speaker 6: Day on NBC. So that'll be a juicy one right there. Man,
• 18:39
  Speaker 6: we could potentially, I don't want to curse this or
• 18:41
  Speaker 6: jinx this. We could potentially have the biggest twenty four
• 18:46
  Speaker 6: hours in Charles Portistory Super Bowl Sunday's Valentine's Day the fourteen,
• 18:51
  Speaker 6: like the way you're thank you watch our Panthers play
• 18:53
  Speaker 6: whoever reps the AFC. Then it's Valentine's Day, so that's
• 18:57
  Speaker 6: going on, and then the hornetsity the next day. You
• 19:01
  Speaker 6: can with Wamelo super Bowl, Panther's Valentine's Day, Wamello's back.
• 19:06
  Speaker 6: Let's have a twenty four hours.
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: Folks there you got super bowls on Valentine's Day this year?
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: Yes, oh my god. The way it's it's getting later
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: and later.
• 19:15
  Speaker 2: Let me apologize to all the women in America on
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: behalf of all the men in America right now. You're
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: Valentine's Day better, Festiviti's better take place on Saturday. All right,
• 19:24
  Speaker 2: that's all I'm going to say.
• 19:25
  Speaker 6: Honey, you don't have twelve roses, but here's twelve wings.
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: Oh man, So anyway, we'll get the full schedule later today.
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: You're right, Darren Waller will catch one hundred yards worth
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: of passes in a Super Bowl win. Bone the day
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: before that, LaMelo visit. It's gonna be a big weekend. Also,
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: want to mention Braves winning last night Mets Fitty. They
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: have shut Mets Fitty up here and maybe for good,
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: maybe for good this season they win six or three
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: last night. How about our guy malley Bone This dude
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: they traded for Tyler Malleye, This dude that they traded
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: Ford that had the five point something era and Braves
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: fans are like, that's the starting picture you gave us
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: at the trade deadline. This dude had his second straight
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: really good start. This time he ends up getting to
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: win six innings, one run, seven ks. So that's good news. Man.
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: I don't know if he can keep it up, but
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: damn he started good.
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: I think. I don't think he gave up a run
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: in his start against the Yanks.
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: Right, No, he did not.
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: That was his first start, right I believe, And he
• 20:28
  Speaker 2: here his first too. He's giving up one run and
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: two starts.
• 20:31
  Speaker 6: No, all of a sudden, Yeah, the Braves fans are
• 20:33
  Speaker 6: released quieted for their complaints right now. We'll see if
• 20:36
  Speaker 6: it continues. But no, that was a good rebound the
• 20:39
  Speaker 6: last couple of days. Therefore, the Braves after the disappointing
• 20:43
  Speaker 6: starts this year.
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: There you go.
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: But Fitty doesn't care bone about the Mets because he
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: is in the process of acquiring a used Panthers jockstrap
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: right now.
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: I wonder what game it's from. Is it the game
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: where he fought where he fought on? Did he fight?
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: Did the late great Chester m'clock din?
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you still got that one Frank where you are
• 21:00
  Speaker 2: ready to throw down with Big Chester. You still got
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: that jockstrap. That would be that would be a historic jockstrap.
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: You gotta pay for those goods.
• 21:07
  Speaker 7: Matt, don't be jealous sharing his caring if you get
• 21:10
  Speaker 7: the point in the year where you want to wear.
• 21:11
  Speaker 6: The jocks thick. Darren Rovel hasn't bought a Frank guards
• 21:16
  Speaker 6: he had jockstrap. Yet he's got Hugh Hefner's viagra pill bottle.
• 21:20
  Speaker 6: I'm surprised he hasn't got to use jockey.
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: Doesn't he look like the type of guy that it
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: would be if he was in a locker room, somebody
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: would take their jockstrap and attach it to his head.
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: Doesn't he look like that sort of guy. He would
• 21:32
  Speaker 2: wear it like God Daniel Son karate kid. Somebody would
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: just put it around his head. There you go, Nerd.
• 21:39
  Speaker 6: When we come back, plenty of Panthers on the table,
• 21:42
  Speaker 6: TMAC and XL have big practices.
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: It's just about go.
• 21:46
  Speaker 6: Time for Jonathan Brooks and it's time we appreciate the
• 21:51
  Speaker 6: other country wide receiver on the Carolina Panthers. Will explain
• 21:55
  Speaker 6: Sports Radio ninety two seven WFND.
• 22:15
  Speaker 5: Well, Jonathan Brooks play this weekend.
• 22:17
  Speaker 8: Absolutely, he's in great shape, he's ready to rock, he's
• 22:19
  Speaker 8: ready to play football. And so now that's just the
• 22:21
  Speaker 8: next part of it. And you know he'll play with
• 22:23
  Speaker 8: the first group, he'll mix in and out with Cuba,
• 22:27
  Speaker 8: and we'll be able to get a good look at
• 22:28
  Speaker 8: those guys, you know, with a couple of drives.
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: There you go. Very good news, very good news. And
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: it's time. It is time for Jonathan Brooks to return
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: to game action. And you heard it there from coach
• 22:46
  Speaker 2: Canalis yesterday after practice. It will happen this week and
• 22:50
  Speaker 2: it will happen with the starters. He said it there.
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: He will work him and Cuba in and out, just
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: kind of like you would bone think they're going to
• 22:58
  Speaker 2: do in the game, you know, in real games this season.
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: So I'm excited to see it. Man. I think they
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: complement each other really well, do different things, have different
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: strong points to their game. So why not get that
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: going right away? And by the way, for people to think, oh, man,
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: Jonathan Brooks is coming back. I saw somebody say, are
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: we rushing them back? Jonathan Brooks is about three months
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: away from not playing in a football.
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: Game for two years. Time.
• 23:30
  Speaker 2: It is a long past time. This dude sat out
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: a whole football season. It is time to play football
• 23:37
  Speaker 2: for him, man, And I just hope the knee holds up. Man,
• 23:39
  Speaker 2: I want to see him cut on it. I want
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: to see him take some hits on I think the
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: cuts are the scarier thing because that's how the injuries
• 23:46
  Speaker 2: happened previously, right, non contact, just cutting.
• 23:49
  Speaker 6: And just the totality and physicality of the NFL, NFL life.
• 23:55
  Speaker 6: How does he bounce back week to week? How does
• 23:57
  Speaker 6: he hold up through an entire season, not just the
• 24:00
  Speaker 6: but really without having played football for a while, it's
• 24:03
  Speaker 6: hard to you know, there are certain players Mac we
• 24:05
  Speaker 6: can put numbers on for expectations of what we want
• 24:09
  Speaker 6: a Seahorks back. We can sit here and talk about, Hey,
• 24:11
  Speaker 6: what do we think Bryce is gonna do? Yardage wise?
• 24:14
  Speaker 6: Jonathan Brooks is a little bit difficult because we have
• 24:17
  Speaker 6: not really seen him in full at this level. So
• 24:20
  Speaker 6: it's hard to say I think he can get this number,
• 24:22
  Speaker 6: this could be his total yards because I was trying
• 24:25
  Speaker 6: to think what would be what would be a great
• 24:28
  Speaker 6: yardage total if you combine him and Cuba. But it's
• 24:32
  Speaker 6: hard to figure out the usage. And it's really hard
• 24:36
  Speaker 6: to put a number on Jonathan Brooks right now until
• 24:38
  Speaker 6: we see him there for a while.
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: He think, I think what he has to do here
• 24:41
  Speaker 2: in this preseason too. It's it's a mental thing very much.
• 24:44
  Speaker 2: He's got to trust it, right, I'm sure he's gonna
• 24:47
  Speaker 2: have some nerves. I mean, had the injury in college
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: bone didn't start the season. Remember his rookie year took
• 24:54
  Speaker 2: him a while until he got in there. So if
• 24:56
  Speaker 2: he's only played a few football games in between two
• 24:59
  Speaker 2: torn eight else, So for him, he's got to cut
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: on it. Feel that thing holding up. He's got to
• 25:06
  Speaker 2: take a shot on it. You know that That's the
• 25:07
  Speaker 2: thing with him is he's got to get to the
• 25:09
  Speaker 2: point mentally where he trusted. So I think that's gonna
• 25:12
  Speaker 2: be a big part. I know this bone. I want
• 25:15
  Speaker 2: the running game to be better nineteenth in the league.
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: It was nineteenth in the league last year in rushing
• 25:20
  Speaker 2: for a team. And listen, sometimes Dave Canalis will abandoned
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: the running game in certain games. I'd like to you know,
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: I'd like to see less of that. But like for
• 25:27
  Speaker 2: a coach that swears I want to run the ball,
• 25:29
  Speaker 2: I want to be stubborn with the running game. They've
• 25:31
  Speaker 2: got to run it better than nineteenth. So I'll just
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: start right there. Those two have to be a tandem
• 25:37
  Speaker 2: that need to be better than that.
• 25:40
  Speaker 5: You know.
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and I think run game at.
• 25:42
  Speaker 6: Least, you know, there's there's the obvious not concern, but
• 25:46
  Speaker 6: the question of Brooks health and Cuba has also got
• 25:50
  Speaker 6: the hell stuff from last year as well. Cuba. To
• 25:52
  Speaker 6: make this whole thing work, it's not just Brooks and
• 25:54
  Speaker 6: it's health. Cuba has to be back to what he
• 25:57
  Speaker 6: was a couple of years ago as well.
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: Definitely, No, you're right, it's a it's a bounce back
• 26:01
  Speaker 2: situation for him. As well. He came on at the
• 26:03
  Speaker 2: end of the year, got his starting job back. But yeah,
• 26:07
  Speaker 2: we need that version from the previous season that went
• 26:10
  Speaker 2: over one thousand yards and earned a contract extension. That's
• 26:13
  Speaker 2: the version we need.
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: Mac.
• 26:14
  Speaker 6: Obviously, Brooks' body has been through a lot with the
• 26:17
  Speaker 6: two acls. But I will say because of the two
• 26:21
  Speaker 6: acls in college and the pros, he doesn't really have
• 26:24
  Speaker 6: a lot of other wear and tear in his body.
• 26:26
  Speaker 6: He didn't really play that many games in college. Oh,
• 26:29
  Speaker 6: here's a lot of tread. A lot of tread the
• 26:31
  Speaker 6: five games its first year, seven to second year, then
• 26:34
  Speaker 6: eleven in the year three that he's missed time here.
• 26:36
  Speaker 6: So if we can get him going and get him
• 26:38
  Speaker 6: like you said mentally right, there's a lot of tread
• 26:41
  Speaker 6: on those tires besides that, Nie, Yeah, when you talk
• 26:43
  Speaker 6: about running back, physical wear and tear, and that's a
• 26:45
  Speaker 6: very good point. And listen, TD, he was a heat
• 26:49
  Speaker 6: seeking missile, was blazing fastbone after three torn ACL. So
• 26:53
  Speaker 6: I'm not going to be on here making any guarantees
• 26:55
  Speaker 6: with Brooks. I wouldn't do it to the poor young
• 26:57
  Speaker 6: man with my track record of jinxing, cursing. But it
• 27:01
  Speaker 6: we've seen it right here in Carolina can be done,
• 27:05
  Speaker 6: and hopefully he can do it. Uh, yesterday, Fitty and
• 27:08
  Speaker 6: I were out there at practice yesterday and a couple
• 27:12
  Speaker 6: of wide receivers had big days. T Mac all over
• 27:17
  Speaker 6: the place deep balls, one on one duels with Mike
• 27:23
  Speaker 6: Jack and it was a give and take. Tea Mac
• 27:24
  Speaker 6: caught some balls on him.
• 27:25
  Speaker 2: Mike Jack had a pick of Bryce diving interception covering
• 27:29
  Speaker 2: Tam Mac. Team at caught a big go ball deep
• 27:31
  Speaker 2: ball as well, and XL xcel with multiple catches XCEL
• 27:36
  Speaker 2: with some toe tapping. I mean, this is something we've
• 27:39
  Speaker 2: started to see in camp that he is starting to do.
• 27:41
  Speaker 3: Now.
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: I got my piggies down there.
• 27:44
  Speaker 6: I don't know why when a on there on that one,
• 27:48
  Speaker 6: you got the imps.
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: In the field, definitely, I don't know what happened, nono.
• 27:58
  Speaker 2: He ended the practice with the with a touchdown catch
• 28:01
  Speaker 2: went up in the air, hands catch grab it. So
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: big days for both of those guys. So let's hear
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: Dave Canalis talk about both of these fellas. Let's start
• 28:10
  Speaker 2: with and it is obvious when you look at t
• 28:13
  Speaker 2: Mac in person, Holy crap, he looks like a damn
• 28:17
  Speaker 2: cyborg like he was thin. It was almost like Aj
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: Green last year the receiver, right, not the power forward
• 28:25
  Speaker 2: for the Lakers, really thin last year. He's put on
• 28:30
  Speaker 2: twenty pounds. Is back to his college playing weight. Holy crap,
• 28:33
  Speaker 2: that was Ac Green by the way back. He's going
• 28:35
  Speaker 2: to be a handful. Oh Ac Green? Okay, AJ Green?
• 28:39
  Speaker 2: Acr plays for the box. Oh okay, So there's a basketball.
• 28:44
  Speaker 6: AJ Green got it to let it go.
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: But I couldn't clean up on asle too. No, probably
• 28:50
  Speaker 2: no one would have even noticed it bone. But that's
• 28:52
  Speaker 2: all right. We got to clean the store up anyway. Okay, anyway,
• 28:56
  Speaker 2: let me get to the point here, Dave Canalis talking
• 28:59
  Speaker 2: of out tm Ac and what is better this year.
• 29:03
  Speaker 8: Yeah, just level of comfort in the system. And you know,
• 29:07
  Speaker 8: he's certainly gotten bigger and stronger over the offseason, making
• 29:10
  Speaker 8: himself more available on some of those you know, tighter
• 29:13
  Speaker 8: contested throws at the line of scrimmage. Just really hasn't
• 29:17
  Speaker 8: had an issue this camp getting off the line. Just
• 29:19
  Speaker 8: with that, he's really translating all the work that he
• 29:21
  Speaker 8: did in the off season, having a plan coming out
• 29:24
  Speaker 8: here just second year in the system, but then also
• 29:26
  Speaker 8: just the physical nature that he's playing with. I'm really
• 29:29
  Speaker 8: excited where.
• 29:29
  Speaker 2: He's at Canallas also talking about Excel and what is
• 29:33
  Speaker 2: better about XL.
• 29:35
  Speaker 8: He looks explosive. He's the same focused guy that I've
• 29:38
  Speaker 8: known for going on three years now. So the intensity
• 29:41
  Speaker 8: and the focus is still there. He's very comfortable in
• 29:45
  Speaker 8: what we're doing. And then what I've seen him do
• 29:47
  Speaker 8: is just make great plays on the boundary back at
• 29:50
  Speaker 8: the end zone. Just some of those spatial plays where
• 29:53
  Speaker 8: he can go attack the ball, find a way to
• 29:55
  Speaker 8: get his feet down, and he's really attacked that part
• 29:57
  Speaker 8: of his game and that's something that I've seen him
• 29:59
  Speaker 8: really improve.
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: So there you go, good good practice for him. Spatially aware,
• 30:05
  Speaker 2: I'll just take aware and that's a good one, you know.
• 30:10
  Speaker 2: I Mean that was not a word we would use
• 30:12
  Speaker 2: to describe him last year. But I have noticed bone
• 30:16
  Speaker 2: there have been a bunch of instances again in practice
• 30:19
  Speaker 2: yesterday of him getting his feet down. It's definitely something
• 30:25
  Speaker 2: that he has worked on and he talked about this yesterday.
• 30:29
  Speaker 2: He talked to XL, talked about sideline catch ability and
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: that's something that he knows he wasn't good at last year.
• 30:38
  Speaker 9: Dave said, You've done a really nice job this summer
• 30:42
  Speaker 9: with spatial awareness can catch us like at the back
• 30:47
  Speaker 9: of the enza along the sideline. Uh is that something
• 30:51
  Speaker 9: that's trickier than many folks like us?
• 30:55
  Speaker 10: And I said, I just hung on. City D says,
• 30:57
  Speaker 10: you know what I'm saying. I had a couple of meshairs.
• 30:59
  Speaker 10: I was stuff on the line, I was out of
• 31:01
  Speaker 10: bounds last year, and I just hand it on details
• 31:03
  Speaker 10: and try to get those nightratt this year.
• 31:06
  Speaker 5: I think you've been trying to take more.
• 31:08
  Speaker 10: Sideline catches the show. At the end of my workhouse,
• 31:13
  Speaker 10: that's what That's the last thing.
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: I work on. So there you go. Details of keeping
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: his feeted bounced.
• 31:18
  Speaker 5: You know.
• 31:19
  Speaker 2: And before I didn't know ever to damnce outline over there.
• 31:21
  Speaker 6: But I've been told that the off season he's had,
• 31:25
  Speaker 6: he's had a really good camp, not too many bad
• 31:27
  Speaker 6: days at all for XL. And I do wonder also
• 31:30
  Speaker 6: you mentioned the mental side for Bruggs, well, the mental
• 31:33
  Speaker 6: side for XL. I wonder also with his role and
• 31:38
  Speaker 6: maybe there maybe he feels less pressure back a little
• 31:41
  Speaker 6: bit as well. There's pressure on it on him to
• 31:44
  Speaker 6: perform to stay in this league. I do wonder with
• 31:48
  Speaker 6: t mac and Coker. Now, I do wonder if there's
• 31:51
  Speaker 6: a little less pressure and he his role could be
• 31:53
  Speaker 6: more defined with what he's comfortable with here in your
• 31:56
  Speaker 6: number three.
• 31:56
  Speaker 2: He's also not the the Brazzle battle is not happening.
• 31:59
  Speaker 2: I hate I hate it for Chris Brazl, But that
• 32:01
  Speaker 2: was that was where the pressure was coming from. Not
• 32:03
  Speaker 2: that there isn't pressure to literally make something out of
• 32:06
  Speaker 2: his career here in Carolina. I think there is. But
• 32:10
  Speaker 2: he's had a good camp so far. Man, let knock
• 32:12
  Speaker 2: on wood. It's training camp. Let's see what he does.
• 32:14
  Speaker 2: But he's gonna be one of those guys we want
• 32:16
  Speaker 2: to watch on Saturday and see what he ends up doing.
• 32:19
  Speaker 2: We're gonna talk about Jimmy Horn. I thought it was
• 32:22
  Speaker 2: quiet from him though bone in practice yesterday. Although he
• 32:26
  Speaker 2: does keep getting matched up with Merriganto one on ones
• 32:30
  Speaker 2: and keeps toasting Merrik. I'm like, I don't know, why
• 32:33
  Speaker 2: are they trying to put merrig against him constantly? Because
• 32:37
  Speaker 2: you wouldn't think he would go one on one against
• 32:39
  Speaker 2: the little you know, quick slot receiver types like it
• 32:42
  Speaker 2: would be against tight ends and stuff like that.
• 32:44
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I don't know that, Yeah, they're trying to torture
• 32:47
  Speaker 6: the man unless it's a way to build the confident
• 32:50
  Speaker 6: of Jimmy Horn. They're like, hey, we know you can
• 32:51
  Speaker 6: toast this guy well, but that doesn't help some good
• 32:54
  Speaker 6: highlights out there.
• 32:55
  Speaker 2: That doesn't help Horn necessarily. I just it's it's unless
• 32:59
  Speaker 2: it's just hey, really challenge you, or they're just kind
• 33:01
  Speaker 2: of looking at him against you know, smaller receivers and
• 33:04
  Speaker 2: trying to figure out if it's something they can do.
• 33:07
  Speaker 2: But you and I were at the at the one
• 33:10
  Speaker 2: practice where I think one on one marriage shut Horn down,
• 33:14
  Speaker 2: and I think since then it's been about eighteen times
• 33:17
  Speaker 2: where Horn has gotten him. So anyway, I just find
• 33:20
  Speaker 2: that that's an interesting matchup that seemed to do over
• 33:22
  Speaker 2: and over again.
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: Mike Jack and.
• 33:26
  Speaker 2: T Mac One on ones was musty TV. Yes, I
• 33:29
  Speaker 2: guess it wasn't TV, though it was. It was very entertaining.
• 33:33
  Speaker 2: Let me just put it that way anyway, should have
• 33:35
  Speaker 2: been on TV, bone, That's what I'm trying to say.
• 33:37
  Speaker 2: Should have put that on TV. All right, let's get
• 33:40
  Speaker 2: to Jimmy Horn WSOC. Let's get to Jimmy Horn, because
• 33:45
  Speaker 2: I think we sleep on the other Southern receiver on
• 33:51
  Speaker 2: the Carolina Panthers. Listen to Jimmy Horn yesterday. Because he
• 33:54
  Speaker 2: doesn't speak as much as XL. I think we forget
• 33:58
  Speaker 2: we got two of them. We got a country five duo,
• 34:00
  Speaker 2: a wide receiver. Listen to Jimmy Horn Florida Natives talk
• 34:04
  Speaker 2: about being on that trip to Mullins with the boys
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: riding horses, and then he talks about his hometown.
• 34:11
  Speaker 4: It was fun, you know what. Mullin's kind of remind
• 34:14
  Speaker 4: you a little bit or where I'm from. But they
• 34:16
  Speaker 4: just they just weighed a little more country. But I
• 34:18
  Speaker 4: used I go down there. I've been down there a
• 34:21
  Speaker 4: couple of times with xper food, Like he invited everybody
• 34:23
  Speaker 4: down there and stuff. So I'm from sound For. That's
• 34:28
  Speaker 4: like thirty minutes from Orlando. Yeah, we call it Boky
• 34:33
  Speaker 4: Muller's Yeah, way way more country, like they got more land.
• 34:38
  Speaker 4: Like you go out to the west where I'm from
• 34:40
  Speaker 4: sound For, like it's country on that side and then
• 34:42
  Speaker 4: the side I'm from. That's why I made that song
• 34:44
  Speaker 4: hood Country is from, Like yeah, Boke Boky b o
• 34:52
  Speaker 4: k e wah.
• 34:55
  Speaker 10: Try out of the Indians.
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: There you go, I like, he's I do we need
• 35:01
  Speaker 2: the Countryfied Duo podcast. What you feel like we need
• 35:05
  Speaker 2: those two just talking about country living on a podcast.
• 35:08
  Speaker 6: Great idea. Or JJ hasn't been doing Has he been
• 35:11
  Speaker 6: doing car talk at all? I've not seen any car
• 35:13
  Speaker 6: talk yet.
• 35:14
  Speaker 7: He's been getting ready bone for Dancing with the Stars
• 35:17
  Speaker 7: because he busted out a couple movies.
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: He was dancing.
• 35:20
  Speaker 6: He was dancing the kids out there yesterday too, working
• 35:23
  Speaker 6: on the he he's trying to build a Manning like
• 35:26
  Speaker 6: dynasty of long snow. I was gonna say JJ in
• 35:30
  Speaker 6: the car, we need both of those. We need the
• 35:32
  Speaker 6: country fried Doo. That would be yeah jets.
• 35:35
  Speaker 2: We gotta tell JJ get those boys together with the
• 35:37
  Speaker 2: with the accents and just talk country stuff. But yes,
• 35:40
  Speaker 2: it was family day yesterday where the kids and the
• 35:44
  Speaker 2: spouses and everybody were out there after practice. They had
• 35:47
  Speaker 2: popsicles out there. I didn't get for the family. Jimmy Horn.
• 35:50
  Speaker 2: Jimmy Horn dropped his popsicle and blamed blamed it on
• 35:53
  Speaker 2: the media, blamed it on the media. But yes, JJ
• 35:57
  Speaker 2: was teaching his kids how to long snow. I think
• 36:00
  Speaker 2: he's gonna try for a Brownie situation bone where he
• 36:03
  Speaker 2: stays there long enough to pass the torch to one
• 36:06
  Speaker 2: of his sons to be the panther long snapper. I
• 36:09
  Speaker 2: also saw the oldest. I hate to do this, JJ.
• 36:12
  Speaker 2: I saw your oldest try to catch some punts out there.
• 36:16
  Speaker 2: It looked like Mack and Bone trying to catch punts
• 36:19
  Speaker 2: out at Charlotte Katholic that one day we went out there.
• 36:23
  Speaker 6: When I took them, took the right to the hand.
• 36:25
  Speaker 6: It's harder than you think. Man, your vision is so
• 36:28
  Speaker 6: cut off by the helmet. But he didn't, Yeah, he didn't.
• 36:31
  Speaker 6: He can't use as an excuse. Oh no, when we
• 36:35
  Speaker 6: come back here on the Mack and Bone show, a
• 36:37
  Speaker 6: lot of college stuff. Dabo is he firing up the
• 36:41
  Speaker 6: rest of y'all? Butts again? And set Trimble is getting
• 36:46
  Speaker 6: just how much to play college basketball next year?
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: How will we go? We'll give you that info Sports
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: Radio ninety two seven WFNZ.
• 37:19
  Speaker 7: Just in the early on field work, as anybody maybe
• 37:21
  Speaker 7: popped out or surprised you in a way in terms
• 37:23
  Speaker 7: of their progression from the spring to the something.
• 37:25
  Speaker 4: Note, no, everybody's just working.
• 37:28
  Speaker 10: There's a bunch of nobody's just we'll see, we'll see
• 37:32
  Speaker 10: if anybody becomes somebody as we play some games.
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: Here we go.
• 37:37
  Speaker 2: It's a bunch of nobodies on the rest of you'll bus.
• 37:40
  Speaker 2: That's day. That comment has made some headlines. It appears
• 37:46
  Speaker 2: bone that Dabbo is boarding that rest of you all
• 37:49
  Speaker 2: bus again, that that could be the message. We won
• 37:54
  Speaker 2: seven games last year, we ain't nothing. We got to
• 37:58
  Speaker 2: go out there and prove they think you're nothing. We
• 38:00
  Speaker 2: had a we got to go out there and prove
• 38:03
  Speaker 2: that we are something this year. And that it feels
• 38:06
  Speaker 2: like that might be the motivational technique he's gone with.
• 38:09
  Speaker 6: Both sounds like he would go to that sometimes during
• 38:12
  Speaker 6: their best years, so that we would laugh and say, really, really,
• 38:18
  Speaker 6: don't mean to go full Willie p there, but no,
• 38:20
  Speaker 6: so it's not shocking that he's going to the bag
• 38:23
  Speaker 6: of tricks and coaches need motivation, so this is what
• 38:26
  Speaker 6: he's gonna go with. But that bus back has never
• 38:29
  Speaker 6: been not an operation. It just was a nicer bus
• 38:32
  Speaker 6: for a while.
• 38:33
  Speaker 2: It is now You're right, though, it was shameless and
• 38:35
  Speaker 2: it came across disingenuous when they were literally the co
• 38:39
  Speaker 2: best team in the country with Alabama for a few
• 38:41
  Speaker 2: years and he would say, oh, we're just little old Clemson.
• 38:44
  Speaker 2: We're just on the rest of y'all bus Alabama, Alabama
• 38:48
  Speaker 2: on that big bus, like it's like, no, you're you're
• 38:50
  Speaker 2: literally standing eyed eye with him. But now I do
• 38:53
  Speaker 2: think now that's an avenue bone that I think he
• 38:57
  Speaker 2: can play, and I think it comes across as more
• 38:59
  Speaker 2: genuine because they are being doubted across the country. There's
• 39:04
  Speaker 2: and and that's I would think that Dabo's probably using
• 39:08
  Speaker 2: It also tells.
• 39:09
  Speaker 6: Me they're reading between the lines. I also think when
• 39:12
  Speaker 6: he does that, I think he I think he likes
• 39:15
  Speaker 6: his team a little bit here when he's trying to
• 39:17
  Speaker 6: downplay it, I think he's saying that because he thinks
• 39:19
  Speaker 6: they're going to be better than what a lot of
• 39:21
  Speaker 6: people are expecting them to be.
• 39:22
  Speaker 1: There you go, So I think he likes it. I
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: think he actually likes this. Yeah, I think he likes
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: his team.
• 39:26
  Speaker 2: I saw somebody on Twitter saying, Manabha must hate these guys.
• 39:30
  Speaker 2: Think it's the it's I think he's feeling frisky.
• 39:33
  Speaker 6: He's feeling frisky. He thinks his team is going to
• 39:35
  Speaker 6: be I don't know if a surprised is the right
• 39:38
  Speaker 6: word when you're Compton, but I think he thinks that
• 39:40
  Speaker 6: he's got something here.
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: That's what that's what I think it is interesting.
• 39:43
  Speaker 2: That would be well, I think really takes there a
• 39:45
  Speaker 2: bunch of nobody, unless he's like, I don't know who
• 39:48
  Speaker 2: these guys are now the back if a guy like
• 39:50
  Speaker 2: Mick Cronin says that in basketball for UCLA, we've got
• 39:53
  Speaker 2: a bunch of nobody's, he probably hates his basketball. But
• 39:55
  Speaker 2: with Debo, you're thinking, maybe it's the opposite. Another fifty
• 40:00
  Speaker 2: player backbone. As long as this appeal does not get overturned.
• 40:05
  Speaker 2: Jamel Johnson cornerback in NC State back, he's a fifth
• 40:08
  Speaker 2: year guy. I don't think he is making the Seth
• 40:12
  Speaker 2: Tremble money though. How about the report of what Seth
• 40:16
  Speaker 2: Tremble is getting to play basketball at Louisville. If the
• 40:20
  Speaker 2: appeal from the NCAA doesn't get this thing overturned and
• 40:23
  Speaker 2: fifth year players are eligible, three million dollars million with
• 40:29
  Speaker 2: an m crab made more ice cream shops?
• 40:32
  Speaker 6: Can he open up movie villa just found three million
• 40:34
  Speaker 6: extra hanging around there in the in the in the
• 40:36
  Speaker 6: nil till here's the thing. Seth Tremble is a good
• 40:40
  Speaker 6: basketball player. He's got good attributes. Fitty went through him
• 40:44
  Speaker 6: yesterday maybe set Back defensively doesn't shoot it that well.
• 40:48
  Speaker 6: That is a lot of money for a good player.
• 40:51
  Speaker 6: What I wouldn't say is a great player. That is
• 40:54
  Speaker 6: a that is a noidary came back. Yeah, well yeah
• 40:57
  Speaker 6: I did. Somebody would you why would you would you
• 40:59
  Speaker 6: rat to play? We have over three million dollars or
• 41:02
  Speaker 6: check my notes here play for the Wizards.
• 41:04
  Speaker 2: I somebody said to me, man, Mac, you're giving set
• 41:07
  Speaker 2: Tremble a hard time. It was yesterday during the show.
• 41:10
  Speaker 2: Someone it texted us, and I didn't mean to come
• 41:13
  Speaker 2: across that way. My my thing is my god. The
• 41:16
  Speaker 2: guy was in summerly, Like I just I'm tired of
• 41:18
  Speaker 2: these guys. Like the eligibility stuff needs to be tightened.
• 41:23
  Speaker 2: But with that said, it's a no brainer for him. Yes,
• 41:27
  Speaker 2: he's no guarantee to make the n NBA roster in
• 41:30
  Speaker 2: Washington whatsoever. He can go make three million dollars and
• 41:33
  Speaker 2: then still try to pursue it next year. So it's
• 41:36
  Speaker 2: a absolute no brainer for him, There's no doubt about it.
• 41:40
  Speaker 2: So I'm not hating the player, I'm just hating the game. Like,
• 41:42
  Speaker 2: at some point we got to get this thing kind
• 41:44
  Speaker 2: of tightened. You know what, I mean, but and apparently Bone,
• 41:48
  Speaker 2: the people in Washington, DC are not really doing the
• 41:51
  Speaker 2: tightening for some re shocking development that do you know,
• 41:54
  Speaker 2: Bone that the first congressional the first talk on Capitol
• 42:00
  Speaker 2: in Washington, d C. In Congress about a college sports
• 42:03
  Speaker 2: bill was six years ago. Ted Cruz three years ago.
• 42:07
  Speaker 2: It's on multiple terms. Ted Cruz three years ago said
• 42:11
  Speaker 2: I promise you this bill is going to pass. It
• 42:14
  Speaker 2: was twenty twenty three when he said that. So they've
• 42:16
  Speaker 2: been trying this for a minute, man, and have not
• 42:19
  Speaker 2: been able to get it done. So I'm not holding
• 42:20
  Speaker 2: my breath necessarily for the Protecting College Sports Act.
• 42:24
  Speaker 1: In reference to.
• 42:25
  Speaker 6: The nil stuff we were talking about as well, there's
• 42:27
  Speaker 6: some hilarious audio out there from George Kittle on Busting
• 42:30
  Speaker 6: with the Boys the other day when he was explaining
• 42:32
  Speaker 6: that when the rookies come in to Niners camp, they
• 42:35
  Speaker 6: do an if it was a tight end room that
• 42:37
  Speaker 6: does I don't know, but they they do an intro
• 42:39
  Speaker 6: thing where'd you play football? That's what all the you
• 42:41
  Speaker 6: see that a hard knock sore from the Kittle said,
• 42:44
  Speaker 6: Now they say what's your signing bonus? And then they
• 42:47
  Speaker 6: asked him what was their nil, and one of the
• 42:49
  Speaker 6: rookies this year stood up and said, Hey, I'm so
• 42:51
  Speaker 6: and so from so and so. My signing bonus was
• 42:54
  Speaker 6: thirty thousand dollars. They all cheered, right, all right, right,
• 42:57
  Speaker 6: what was your nil? Seven hundred thousand dollars? That'll dig
• 43:02
  Speaker 6: And they're like, why are you here? It's a whole
• 43:04
  Speaker 6: new world. They're probably here because their eligibility is out.
• 43:08
  Speaker 2: Well, we think because like Tremble, yes, many many people
• 43:12
  Speaker 2: are realizing it pays to state. That's why I didn't
• 43:15
  Speaker 2: understand things like they saw in some of these other guys.
• 43:18
  Speaker 2: It's like, you don't have to rush out anymore. You
• 43:20
  Speaker 2: can make tons of money, exhaust your eligibility, make tons
• 43:24
  Speaker 2: of millions, and then go for the uncertainty of the
• 43:27
  Speaker 2: next wile. I do want to mention this Jade and
• 43:31
  Speaker 2: Daniels thing with LSU, because I gotta be honest, this
• 43:34
  Speaker 2: is one of the most petty things I've heard about
• 43:36
  Speaker 2: in a long time in sports, and that's saying something.
• 43:40
  Speaker 2: Jaden Daniels has issued a cease and desist order to LSU,
• 43:45
  Speaker 2: saying you can't use my name, image and likeness and okay,
• 43:50
  Speaker 2: so why what the hell what the hell happened there?
• 43:53
  Speaker 2: The Daniels spokesman put out a statement saying, the family
• 43:57
  Speaker 2: is disappointed that lsu is letting cornerback DJ Pickett wear
• 44:03
  Speaker 2: his number five. They are upset by that bone. They
• 44:07
  Speaker 2: think no one should ever wear that number again, and
• 44:10
  Speaker 2: so therefore you can't use my name, image and likeness anymore.
• 44:15
  Speaker 2: This is this is rich Man. Seriously, my got get
• 44:20
  Speaker 2: over you. This is rich This is Richard petty. This
• 44:22
  Speaker 2: is a petty as it gets here, He's also feels
• 44:26
  Speaker 2: he's being treated differently than Joe Burrow. That's part of
• 44:29
  Speaker 2: the storyline here that they're not given out Burrow's number,
• 44:32
  Speaker 2: but they're giving out his.
• 44:34
  Speaker 3: Oh, I wonder why?
• 44:35
  Speaker 1: Oh that's right?
• 44:36
  Speaker 7: Because Joe Burrow had maybe the greatest individual season a
• 44:40
  Speaker 7: quarterback has had on the history of college football and
• 44:43
  Speaker 7: won a national championship.
• 44:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Jane and Daniels, you won a Heisman. How many
• 44:47
  Speaker 2: games they win? Nine to ten?
• 44:50
  Speaker 7: Heisman National Championship? I wonder which one carries more weight?
• 44:56
  Speaker 2: Why do you care about that?
• 44:57
  Speaker 1: Burrow?
• 44:57
  Speaker 2: You guys had a complete flop of the season last
• 44:59
  Speaker 2: year after going to the NFC title game the year before.
• 45:02
  Speaker 2: Why do you care about this. And by the way,
• 45:05
  Speaker 2: the state they the statement says, the Daniels family. I'm
• 45:10
  Speaker 2: watching the Quarterback Show right now. Bone, Mama Daniels is
• 45:18
  Speaker 2: I don't know if I want to say running his life,
• 45:20
  Speaker 2: but my god, she's his manager and like she is everywhere.
• 45:25
  Speaker 2: I mean, this dude goes on dates and I think
• 45:27
  Speaker 2: she's probably sitting there.
• 45:28
  Speaker 6: Yeah, she banned women for a while, right, wasn't that
• 45:30
  Speaker 6: the whole story that he wasn't allowed to date or whatever.
• 45:33
  Speaker 6: It doesn't surprise me believe it was Daniels. Yeah, it
• 45:36
  Speaker 6: doesn't surprise me. But she is omnipresent in his life.
• 45:40
  Speaker 6: So yeah, that's a fair I would I would think
• 45:42
  Speaker 6: that that's a inner circle family situation.
• 45:45
  Speaker 2: How do you care about this? And yeah, Fiddy's right,
• 45:49
  Speaker 2: you want a heisman, you had a great year. You
• 45:51
  Speaker 2: are nowhere on Joe Burrow's uh status of legend at LSU,
• 45:56
  Speaker 2: And why do you give a bleep about that? Think
• 45:58
  Speaker 2: about the right things? Man? That that's that's lame, Like
• 46:02
  Speaker 2: that's just that's just lame as hell. Yes, there was
• 46:04
  Speaker 2: a time there where she now says he's allowed to date.
• 46:07
  Speaker 2: Oh that's nice, though she would not uh she'd go
• 46:10
  Speaker 2: on the dates for a while with that. Oh so
• 46:12
  Speaker 2: I just said, is that why I said that to you?
• 46:14
  Speaker 6: It was the third wheel during events and outings with women,
• 46:17
  Speaker 6: and so that's must be why I made that joke.
• 46:20
  Speaker 2: I must have like remembered that sometimes, like because I
• 46:24
  Speaker 2: literally just made the joke and let alone and behold
• 46:26
  Speaker 2: that that's what happened.
• 46:27
  Speaker 7: Great tex from anam from Harrisburg. Jade and Daniels, you
• 46:30
  Speaker 7: lost to Mike Norvel in Florida State twice.
• 46:33
  Speaker 1: Sit down, Sit down? Oh man, you're the reason Norvel
• 46:39
  Speaker 1: is still hanging around here.
• 46:42
  Speaker 2: Oh wow. I would blame Brian Kelly a lot more
• 46:44
  Speaker 2: for those losses than Jane Daniels. But the point just stands,
• 46:47
  Speaker 2: like there's so many points to be made on why
• 46:49
  Speaker 2: this is ridiculous.
• 46:51
  Speaker 6: When we come back, the Panthers signed a longtime tight end,
• 46:54
  Speaker 6: Darren Waller. What does this mean for the rest of
• 46:58
  Speaker 6: the tight end room and it's a big deal for
• 47:01
  Speaker 6: the offense or not. What's the expectation for Waller? Sports
