• 0:03
  Speaker 1: Oh, Owen's Mac and Bow on your radio. Baby, Come on,
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: ma freeing team Bone, what's the fun.
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: I can't go to work without listening to the Mac
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: and Bone.
• 0:18
  Speaker 3: To do a lot.
• 0:28
  Speaker 4: Ultimately, Charlotte has been as methodical of a team as
• 0:32
  Speaker 4: any trho's been working on the trade margins to improve
• 0:35
  Speaker 4: improve their draft capital. I'm just gonna say this right
• 0:38
  Speaker 4: now because it's not something I think we need to
• 0:40
  Speaker 4: be anticipating anytime soon, but the Hornets are as loaded
• 0:45
  Speaker 4: as any team that could enter a superstar trade frey
• 0:50
  Speaker 4: any given time. They've got as much draft capital as
• 0:53
  Speaker 4: anyone that's had a lot of unprotected picks, and they've
• 0:56
  Speaker 4: got a young pieces. So not to say it's gonna
• 0:59
  Speaker 4: come anytime soon. Again, I don't think Charlotte is involved
• 1:03
  Speaker 4: in Jaylen Brown at all, but next trade deadline, next summer,
• 1:09
  Speaker 4: two years down the line, Charlotte is as positioned as
• 1:13
  Speaker 4: any team to get into a big game hunting superstar
• 1:18
  Speaker 4: trade sweepstakes.
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: That's NBA insider Jake Fisher on a Bleacher Report podcast.
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: So I know what Hornets fans are thinking as they
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: listen to that. Okay, I've heard it. We have so
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: many assets we are poised to pounce and go after
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: a star, go after a superstar. Even so, when the
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: hell are we gonna do that? I know that Hornets
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: fans are Can we do it right now, immediately with
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: Jaylen Brown? Or how many years do we have to weigh?
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: We've been waiting forever for the Hornets to be good.
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: They finally got good at the end of last.
• 1:50
  Speaker 5: Year, and now the news is there's always some scrolling
• 1:53
  Speaker 5: NBA stars, whether it's now trade deadline next year. I
• 1:57
  Speaker 5: know that patience is hard to push, but there's always
• 2:00
  Speaker 5: gonna be mac the next upset start like, there's always
• 2:03
  Speaker 5: gonna be one coming up, and there's.
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: A cycle of them. Right so what cycle are we
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: gonna go? You have to look and see who's who's
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: mad next? Now you got you got Kawhi in this cycle? Hey,
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: should we get involved on the expendables bone? Should we
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: get on the expendables list? If you missed it, the
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: expendables bone are Lebron, James, Anthony Davis, Draymond Green, Draymond
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: They all uh there is There are many reports bone
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: that these dudes could be angling teaming up in Golden State.
• 2:34
  Speaker 5: Porzingis is now back there Porzengis is back there now
• 2:37
  Speaker 5: for forty million dollars.
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: Okay, so throw him on the list as well.
• 2:41
  Speaker 5: Someone's put out the tweet yesterday Mac who could stop
• 2:43
  Speaker 5: this team? And it was all those guys, right, And
• 2:45
  Speaker 5: I said, Oscio Porosis.
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: I saw other time, O the time I was gonna
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: quote Sweet five a time, and I said, I won't
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: do that to poor Steph. But anyway, like, do you
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: want to see all those guys team up in Golden State? Yeah?
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: I do.
• 3:00
  Speaker 5: I kind of just want to. I'm just curious, just
• 3:03
  Speaker 5: for the sake of entertainment. Wise, the goal as they're
• 3:06
  Speaker 5: called them, the old and Olden State's another one they're
• 3:08
  Speaker 5: calling them there.
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: I kind of want to.
• 3:10
  Speaker 5: Just see well, Broad and Steph, even at an advanced age,
• 3:14
  Speaker 5: kind of a kind of a cool.
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: Thing I think to see.
• 3:16
  Speaker 5: I mean, listen, we know, let's be honest, Anthony Davis
• 3:19
  Speaker 5: thowing for Zingis on the same team. They'll be best
• 3:22
  Speaker 5: friends on that bench over there. They'll hang out the
• 3:25
  Speaker 5: infirmary together, no doubt about it.
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: Yeah I do. I think this results in a championship,
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: Hell no, But would it be fascinating to see the unks?
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: It would be fascinating. I got to admit, all right,
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: So here's the and we'll go back to the hornets
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: now on this bony because I don't think the unks
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: will be coming here to Charlotte. Charlotte Old folks homes,
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: you will not need to house these guys. But we
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: got a question yesterday Bone, and we'll talk a little
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: bit more about like free agency and possible hornets targets
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: here in a minute. We got Adam Gold coming up
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: at h one twenty five. We asked the audience for
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: advice from puppy owners present and past. How does Bone
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: cope with this crazy dog that he has adopted. But anyway, I've.
• 4:12
  Speaker 5: Gone from dog owner that had an article about Mabel
• 4:15
  Speaker 5: and the Observer till losing Oklahoma drolls and getting my
• 4:19
  Speaker 5: arms destroyed by a puppy dog. It is a it
• 4:22
  Speaker 5: is an all time dog owner fall from Grace, by
• 4:25
  Speaker 5: the way, in one and a half a year. That
• 4:27
  Speaker 5: was in February, and now I'm getting my asswaped.
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: You went from basically playing in the like Ty Pay
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: Basketball League to playing in the WN or in the NBABA.
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: You have taken a step up, or about seven steps up.
• 4:41
  Speaker 5: My last Nightmack threatened him Irish style fists, had said
• 4:44
  Speaker 5: do you want to go? And then he gave me
• 4:47
  Speaker 5: a shot to the nuts and bit my arm. Because
• 4:49
  Speaker 5: that's not when I say by my arm, I don't
• 4:50
  Speaker 5: mean he's trying to hurt. He just doesn't play Biden.
• 4:53
  Speaker 5: We've bought like anybody like. That's why you're gonna get advice.
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: Bone. You're new to this puppy world. Everybody's had puppies,
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: knows exactly what's going on.
• 5:00
  Speaker 5: The listener, Alley of Vett sort to bite the dog
• 5:02
  Speaker 5: back as we're supposed to fight to talk back.
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: All right, anyway, there's there's your first bit of advice.
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: We'll do that. That's coming up at a forty five. Okay,
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: So we had a text yesterday, say Mac, I've got
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: an honest question. How good do we think? Uh? Okay,
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: here it is? What honestly do we think the goal
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: is for the Hornets for this coming season? Do they
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: want to be good? Do they actually want to go
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: in the playoffs? Or do we want to be playing good?
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: I am actually confused. They re signed Kobe, so they're
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: not tanking, But how good do they want to be?
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: How would you answer? That question Bone and anybody out
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: there listening as a Bugs fan, like, how do you
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: answer that question? How good do we think the organization
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: is trying to be this season?
• 5:47
  Speaker 5: I think I think they want to be good because
• 5:49
  Speaker 5: I don't think this draft is anywhere near as tantalizing
• 5:52
  Speaker 5: as this one or drafts of a couple of years ago.
• 5:56
  Speaker 5: I don't think Mac this this team right now. To me,
• 5:59
  Speaker 5: despite they have so many assets, so many things they
• 6:03
  Speaker 5: can do, I think they can still go be good
• 6:06
  Speaker 5: and not have to have a bad season because they
• 6:08
  Speaker 5: have money, they have things they can spend on. Their
• 6:11
  Speaker 5: next goal is how do they get a star from
• 6:15
  Speaker 5: another team that's established. It's no longer to me right
• 6:19
  Speaker 5: now about hey, who can we tank for go get
• 6:22
  Speaker 5: this guy out of the equation. It's about adding the
• 6:24
  Speaker 5: established piece. So I think they go in with the
• 6:27
  Speaker 5: mindset of we're gonna aim to be good. We'll see
• 6:30
  Speaker 5: what happens. But I don't think this is gonna be
• 6:32
  Speaker 5: a year where they're gonna throw it away and not
• 6:34
  Speaker 5: try to win some ball games. Oh, of course, their
• 6:37
  Speaker 5: goal is to try to attract somebody that wants to
• 6:39
  Speaker 5: play here, and I think by doing that They've got
• 6:42
  Speaker 5: to play at least semi brand of basketball way last years,
• 6:46
  Speaker 5: at least try.
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: People that are saying they are tanking, I just I'm
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: completely not with you. I also saw a tweet from
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: the Big Lead saying that it's a hornet's fire sale.
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: What fire sale? It's two players. We knew. Anybody following
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: paying attention knew that Bridges was probably going to be traded.
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: He could have been traded Bone at any point in
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: the last couple of years. The Lamello's a shaker. There's
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: no doubt that is a pivot. There is no doubt
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: about that. But it's a pivot. It's not some sort
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: of fire sale. It's not some sort of teardown or
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: any of that. Right, we're building around con and Brandon.
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: We're not building around LaMelo because quite frankly, they probably
• 7:22
  Speaker 3: didn't trust him to stay healthy. As far as the
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: answer to the question how good are they trying to be,
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: I'll just say this, I don't think this season's record
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: is their number one priority. Could you agree with that?
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: I think so. If they if this season's records are
• 7:38
  Speaker 3: number one priority, they're not trading LaMelo ball, that makes
• 7:41
  Speaker 3: them a worse team. But I think there unless they
• 7:44
  Speaker 3: go out and and and replace him with some star,
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: and I'm like, okay, crap, they're a better team now.
• 7:50
  Speaker 3: But I don't think like Bone that core from last year,
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: and you could trade Miles Bridge. I'm not including him
• 7:55
  Speaker 3: in the core. But say you did a Fridge Corps,
• 7:58
  Speaker 3: say you've hit the mile Bridge's trade, but you kept LaMelo,
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: You'd still have one unprotected twenty thirty three pick. You
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: would have Grayson Allen and Royce O'Neil and to me,
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: you have Nasri. Well, you would have Nasrid though that's
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: that's the rub. I think you could argue Bone they'd
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: be a better team than last year. They had an
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: has Steinbach as well for the front line. I just
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: they're they. I wanted to pursue fifty wins as a
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: and I think most fans did. I think most fans
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: wanted to keep the bulk of the court together. Miles
• 8:31
  Speaker 3: Bridge is notwithstanding, and try to those big three, try
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: to win fifty plus games with them and see how
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: it goes. And add to that, and I think Bone,
• 8:40
  Speaker 3: if they cared about if the number one thing was
• 8:43
  Speaker 3: how many games do we win this coming season? I
• 8:45
  Speaker 3: think they would have done that. I think they are
• 8:47
  Speaker 3: willing to sacrifice wins in the here and now for
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: the long term good, right.
• 8:53
  Speaker 5: I think they could still be a fifty win basketball
• 8:56
  Speaker 5: fifty wins. I think it's forty five to fifty next year.
• 8:59
  Speaker 5: I think they could, So do you think they can
• 9:00
  Speaker 5: be a bad thing? A telling sign is going to
• 9:03
  Speaker 5: be what do they do with Grayson Allen and Roy O'Neil.
• 9:08
  Speaker 5: Do they keep them on this team to experience guys
• 9:11
  Speaker 5: that have been in playoff games, that have been on
• 9:13
  Speaker 5: winning teams. Do they keep those guys a part of
• 9:16
  Speaker 5: this thing, Because if they do, that tells you that
• 9:19
  Speaker 5: they're trying to win some games with some vets. If
• 9:21
  Speaker 5: they have, say Christian Anderson as the direct backup point guard,
• 9:25
  Speaker 5: and they're playing young guys and Steinbach's playing a ton,
• 9:28
  Speaker 5: that'll tell you their mindset. But they're adding veterans to
• 9:31
  Speaker 5: the mix there. That tells me that their ultimate goal
• 9:34
  Speaker 5: may not be that, but they can still achieve that.
• 9:37
  Speaker 5: I first of all, nas reads an upgrade over Miles Bridges.
• 9:40
  Speaker 5: I agree with that Kobe White is a different player,
• 9:43
  Speaker 5: though mel Ball and I'm not trying to knock Themelow
• 9:46
  Speaker 5: Kobe White is not some scrub he can.
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: We had both last year and we're not the difference
• 9:51
  Speaker 3: we had both lasts and.
• 9:52
  Speaker 5: We're not done yet here. We still don't know what
• 9:54
  Speaker 5: ultimately they may do here.
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: So you think they're gonna make you think they're gonna
• 9:58
  Speaker 3: be a better team next year with outlet they have,
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: they have a chance to be equal in a different,
• 10:02
  Speaker 3: different style. They can be equal or a few wins
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: better than my sick. Does this require like signing Jayleen
• 10:07
  Speaker 3: trading for Jalen Brown? Does this require something mammoth in
• 10:10
  Speaker 3: your opinion, like what get because?
• 10:11
  Speaker 5: Because because I think here's the other thing where we
• 10:16
  Speaker 5: have to remember that we can get elevated games still
• 10:20
  Speaker 5: from Miller in continent. They're not done feeling so there
• 10:23
  Speaker 5: they can still go up a notch. Kobe White, I
• 10:26
  Speaker 5: think is going to be really good. Nods read's better.
• 10:28
  Speaker 5: They got a lot of young players. If they keep
• 10:30
  Speaker 5: Allen and O'Neill as role guys, that'll tell me, Oh,
• 10:33
  Speaker 5: they're trying to do something now rather than just play
• 10:35
  Speaker 5: all these but here.
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: But what I'm saying is they are trying to be
• 10:39
  Speaker 3: competitive now. But I don't believe bone this season is
• 10:43
  Speaker 3: their number one priority. I believe they are willing to
• 10:45
  Speaker 3: take a step back in the short term to take
• 10:49
  Speaker 3: steps forward long term when they finally do cash in
• 10:52
  Speaker 3: those assets. Bone's being called drunk right now on the
• 10:56
  Speaker 3: text line. Command of the league agrees with Bone, agrees
• 10:59
  Speaker 3: with I do agree with your premise, though there are
• 11:03
  Speaker 3: a lot of people that are acting Bone like they're
• 11:05
  Speaker 3: gonna be horrible this year and that I don't see
• 11:08
  Speaker 3: that I do not see. But we need to mention
• 11:10
  Speaker 3: Miami's gonna be better this year. I would think with Giannis,
• 11:13
  Speaker 3: Indiana's gonna be better. With Haliburton back, the East appears
• 11:16
  Speaker 3: to be damn good right now. I just like I
• 11:20
  Speaker 3: have a hard time seeing them better than a playing
• 11:22
  Speaker 3: team personally. But to your point, we got fifty three
• 11:26
  Speaker 3: million dollars before we get to the luxury tax first, Apron,
• 11:30
  Speaker 3: We've got a forty million dollar trade exception. I'm just
• 11:34
  Speaker 3: not sure how aggressive like Drew Holiday that brings us
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: backbone to shopping in free agency when the free agency
• 11:40
  Speaker 3: starts tonight or trade you know, trades or whatever like
• 11:43
  Speaker 3: Drew Holliday would be a move where man, that would
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: be a move that, hey, they want to win. Maybe
• 11:50
  Speaker 3: they are trying to be as good as they were
• 11:52
  Speaker 3: last year, right, But I'm not sure they're gonna make
• 11:54
  Speaker 3: that sort of move. But I don't know. Again, I
• 11:57
  Speaker 3: guess we don't totally know. Jeff Peterson is a bit
• 11:59
  Speaker 3: unpred The one.
• 12:00
  Speaker 5: Thing I'm confident in is that some people are freaking
• 12:02
  Speaker 5: out about, you know, twenty five and thirty wins. I'm
• 12:05
  Speaker 5: not going They're still gonna be. There's still gonna be
• 12:06
  Speaker 5: a good basketball team.
• 12:07
  Speaker 3: I'm not.
• 12:08
  Speaker 5: This is not this is the new regime. This is
• 12:11
  Speaker 5: not the old Rich Chow MJ years. I have no
• 12:14
  Speaker 5: doubt that this team is still moving forward in the
• 12:16
  Speaker 5: right direction. I don't got that at all. Multiple times. No,
• 12:19
  Speaker 5: I'm not in panic mode over this right now. No,
• 12:22
  Speaker 5: and I don't think you should be in panic mode.
• 12:24
  Speaker 5: I think I didn't get me when you start.
• 12:26
  Speaker 3: I think.
• 12:28
  Speaker 5: My panic mode would be. They also signed Kobe White immediately,
• 12:33
  Speaker 5: which tells you that they they had plans if they
• 12:37
  Speaker 5: just drafted Christian Anderson and then Mellows dealt and then
• 12:41
  Speaker 5: they don't sign Kobe White and they just say, hey,
• 12:43
  Speaker 5: he's gone, He's gone to Detroit, and they and Anderson
• 12:47
  Speaker 5: was the guard on the roster right now, I'd say, oh,
• 12:50
  Speaker 5: they're they're not doing much right now, but the fact
• 12:52
  Speaker 5: that they got Kobe White when they did shows me that, hey,
• 12:55
  Speaker 5: they're still in this thing right now.
• 12:56
  Speaker 3: But you and I are in agreement on that. Like
• 12:59
  Speaker 3: I could easily see that team, like I said, being
• 13:01
  Speaker 3: a play in team. And again, we'll see what they do. Man,
• 13:03
  Speaker 3: Jeff Peterson. This dude said, I got no idea what
• 13:05
  Speaker 3: Jeff Peterson's doing. This dude said, will you two just
• 13:08
  Speaker 3: sit back and watch the show. Jeff Peterson is cooking,
• 13:11
  Speaker 3: But is he cooking a meal in the microwave or
• 13:13
  Speaker 3: is he still slow on a slow cooker? You know
• 13:16
  Speaker 3: what I mean? That's the only thing, like when does
• 13:18
  Speaker 3: he I still believe Bone the big move is not
• 13:20
  Speaker 3: gonna happen this offseason, so we got plenty of people
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: text about Jayalen Brece. I still believe we're next off
• 13:27
  Speaker 3: season for the big move, or maybe two off seasons away.
• 13:30
  Speaker 3: I think we have. But we're in agreement that they're
• 13:32
  Speaker 3: not going to be dog Do and that they don't
• 13:34
  Speaker 3: want to be dog Do. But like, I don't think Bone.
• 13:37
  Speaker 3: Their number one party this offseason is how do we
• 13:39
  Speaker 3: take last year's forty four win team and win more
• 13:42
  Speaker 3: games this year. I don't think that's their number one priority.
• 13:44
  Speaker 3: I trust that we have Gordon Ramsey, we have Emerle.
• 13:49
  Speaker 3: We don't have Willie p cooking the meal here. Really,
• 13:54
  Speaker 3: by the way, you and I the center thing. A
• 13:56
  Speaker 3: lot of people are saying they better go get a
• 13:58
  Speaker 3: rim protector first. I think rim protector, back up point guard.
• 14:00
  Speaker 3: Like we talked about yesterday, uh you we we talked
• 14:04
  Speaker 3: about the names Mitchell Robinson and Robert Williams. Those I
• 14:08
  Speaker 3: think those are the two best rim running finish at
• 14:13
  Speaker 3: the rim, Bob Williams, you know, throw the lob, Yeah,
• 14:16
  Speaker 3: throw the lob to them. Protect the rim now if
• 14:20
  Speaker 3: you want free throw shooting, Mitchell Robinson gonna be a
• 14:22
  Speaker 3: little bit of an issue there. But these aren't perfect players.
• 14:26
  Speaker 3: But I do wonder bone if they would go after
• 14:28
  Speaker 3: one of those guys, you know, I do, because again,
• 14:31
  Speaker 3: I think they want to be I don't know. It
• 14:34
  Speaker 3: feels like they're trying to fence straddle right now, and
• 14:36
  Speaker 3: you know what happens when you do that. Sometimes sometimes
• 14:38
  Speaker 3: you get a little pain in you know, sorry, the
• 14:45
  Speaker 3: old undercarriage. But I feel like they're trying to hit
• 14:48
  Speaker 3: that sweet spot of being competitive now. But man, let's
• 14:52
  Speaker 3: not mortgage the future here, you know. So I don't know,
• 14:55
  Speaker 3: but Jeff, people see how it goes. Now.

• 17:47
  Speaker 5: Willie peas custo me on the text, Flaw, what happened?
• 17:50
  Speaker 5: Do say something about Willie? He took a shot.
• 17:52
  Speaker 3: I don't even remember what you said about him. I
• 17:54
  Speaker 3: don't know.
• 17:54
  Speaker 5: I kind of forget what shots I take Sometimes I'm
• 17:57
  Speaker 5: kind of like I'm a cold blooded shooter. Mac from
• 17:59
  Speaker 5: the outside told you to eat bleeps.
• 18:03
  Speaker 3: Not happy. I haven't seen him this bad since last night.
• 18:06
  Speaker 5: We h we were talking soccer and he doesn't really
• 18:09
  Speaker 5: like us in the community right now talking soccer.
• 18:11
  Speaker 3: Yesterday he on text, y'all argue for twenty minutes who
• 18:14
  Speaker 3: was the better athlete in school? And the answer is
• 18:18
  Speaker 3: none of y'all. That was That's what's the answer was.
• 18:21
  Speaker 3: And I'm not acting like I was. Michael Jordan, I'm
• 18:24
  Speaker 3: certainly not acting like that. You know that.
• 18:25
  Speaker 5: And Goldie will notice. I invented the way behind the
• 18:28
  Speaker 5: wall and the free kick move exact when because I
• 18:31
  Speaker 5: was terrified to get hit in the in the boys.
• 18:33
  Speaker 3: Us laid by your teammates and your coach is like,
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: that's a great idea. If they if the wall jumps,
• 18:38
  Speaker 3: you're there. They tried to go under the wall and
• 18:40
  Speaker 3: you're like, oh yeah, I didn't one nearly thinking that
• 18:43
  Speaker 3: I just wanted to hide. That's hilarious. Also, way down
• 18:47
  Speaker 3: for a few minutes, we got to talk some World
• 18:49
  Speaker 3: Cup with Goldie. We could talk some canes off season.
• 18:52
  Speaker 3: There's been that buzz about, like in Nakisha trade. I
• 18:55
  Speaker 3: know they made a deal during the draft Bone to
• 18:57
  Speaker 3: bring in a defenseman. So there's cane stuff that go
• 19:00
  Speaker 3: could help us with as well. Bones worried about John Shire.
• 19:04
  Speaker 3: I know that might come up. So we got a
• 19:05
  Speaker 3: lot of things to do right now with Adam gold
• 19:08
  Speaker 3: ninety nine to nine to fan in Raleigh and most
• 19:10
  Speaker 3: importantly every Tuesday here on the Mac and Bone Show,
• 19:13
  Speaker 3: but even more importantly weeknights on WFNZ at seven o'clock. Goldie,
• 19:18
  Speaker 3: how you do when you enjoined? The soccer? Was yesterday?
• 19:20
  Speaker 3: Not amazing that the World Cup?
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: Man, what an unbelievable tournament this has been. Yesterday was
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: so good. I mean we had Brazil scoring twice in
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: the second half to turn around to one nothing deficit
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: to Japan. Japan. I don't know why they thought they
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: could win that game one nil, but they tried to
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: left their hearts. It was never gonna happen. The way
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: they Brazil packed them in and then back to back penalties.
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: I don't even think the last one was an upset.
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: Morocco looked better than the Netherlands from start to finish.
• 19:57
  Speaker 3: Oh, they took the game too. It Man and Netherlands
• 19:59
  Speaker 3: completely changing what they do and going conservative. They're getting
• 20:02
  Speaker 3: blasted for it and they deserve it. But the games
• 20:06
  Speaker 3: were amazing. The drama, Germany going out on penalties to Paraguay,
• 20:10
  Speaker 3: which there's no way I saw that coming. And by
• 20:13
  Speaker 3: the way, our four to one win over Paraguay just
• 20:16
  Speaker 3: got better, Goldie, how about that? I just got more excited.
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: We can't we can't knock that now Germany.
• 20:22
  Speaker 5: Germany wasn't impressive for who they are. I thought the
• 20:26
  Speaker 5: whole way through their first game they won seven to one,
• 20:28
  Speaker 5: but they to me, I was not impressed with Germany
• 20:32
  Speaker 5: this whole time, except for the one game called you
• 20:34
  Speaker 5: thought the upset may happen. But I've got a vision
• 20:37
  Speaker 5: for these things. Soccer Bone has visions, yes, soccer bones
• 20:40
  Speaker 5: on this.
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: By the way, how about this. Since they last won
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: the World Cup, Italy, Germany and Spain have not won
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: a knockout round match.
• 20:52
  Speaker 3: Is that not insane? That is insane, man, And I.
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: Mean Italy doesn't even go anymore. They don't even make
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: the World Cup anymore, no notes, and Germany does h
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: And yes, although Germany I think missed in like uh
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: eight was fourteen they might have missed him well they
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: were I don't even remember. But yes, all three of
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: those nations have not won a knockout round match since
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: winning the World Cup.
• 21:18
  Speaker 3: It's crazy, man to the top six teams in the
• 21:21
  Speaker 3: world out. Although look to your point, Morocco's number seven
• 21:23
  Speaker 3: in the FIFA rangys that's a damn go team. But Germany, Germany.
• 21:28
  Speaker 3: The saying is that if you get the penalties with Germany,
• 21:32
  Speaker 3: you're done. They had never lost a shootout at the
• 21:35
  Speaker 3: World Cup. They were unbeaten. They only missed one penalty
• 21:39
  Speaker 3: kick before yesterday, and they missed three yesterday. And then
• 21:43
  Speaker 3: the Netherlands. Man, listen, I feel bad for these guys.
• 21:45
  Speaker 3: That team doesn't lose a whole lot in these games.
• 21:47
  Speaker 3: There's so much pressure.
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: They still haven't they have a fifteen match unbeaten run.
• 21:52
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Netherlands, you're right, it still goes down as a draw. Yeah,
• 21:56
  Speaker 3: But like they choked man like a few of those dudes. Oh,
• 22:00
  Speaker 3: there's no the pressure got to a man. But my god, how.
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: About how about Bono getsing so right on Somerville that
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: he didn't even stands up, He just slid over.
• 22:15
  Speaker 3: That was crazy. It's the World Cup has been amazing.
• 22:17
  Speaker 3: The ratings Goalie had been off the hook, the US ratings,
• 22:21
  Speaker 3: but beyond the US ratings, the attendance. They've already said
• 22:24
  Speaker 3: an all time attendance record for a World Cup before
• 22:27
  Speaker 3: they got to the knock.
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: Matches are all in football stadium.
• 22:29
  Speaker 3: The mammoth stadiums, and they're all packed. So it's been
• 22:33
  Speaker 3: a success when a lot of people feel it was
• 22:35
  Speaker 3: going to be a failure. And then you throw in
• 22:37
  Speaker 3: the US, and as excited as we are about them,
• 22:40
  Speaker 3: what do you think, Like we have the bracket now,
• 22:43
  Speaker 3: what's your gut feeling on how far they go in
• 22:47
  Speaker 3: this bracket?
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: Well? I mean, to be honest, they should make too.
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: I think they'll they they'll make the quarterfinals.
• 22:54
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think they can do that.
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: I'm assuming that Belgium advances, and I don't think it's
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: a an absolute certainty that Belgium does. I think Belgium
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: look look, four years ago, Kevin de Bruyne said we're
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: old and he was right four years ago, and Belgium
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: is still old. And I think the US can win
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: that match. I think they'll get to the quarterfinals. I
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: don't think Bosni is gonna be easy. They sat back
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: and absorbed Canada in that opening match and then ended
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: up being one to one. But I think the US
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: should win that match. And I think they've already proven
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: that they've got for the first time in a long time,
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: they've got a lot of attacking options and the wherewithal
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: to get forward, Unlike the way they played under Greg
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: Burhalter and to a certain extent under Bradley. They look
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: like they're ready to get forward and attack and they've
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: got varied weapons. And I think their front really their
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: front five is really really good, especially the way Flow
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: Baligan's playing with you.
• 23:59
  Speaker 5: I think it will finals has to beat a target, man.
• 24:01
  Speaker 5: I think it's gonna be the US and Senegal. That's
• 24:04
  Speaker 5: what I think the matchup is gonna be. It's very
• 24:05
  Speaker 5: positive Belial Tomorrow, it's gonna be a lot like the
• 24:09
  Speaker 5: games yesterday.
• 24:10
  Speaker 3: Maybe penalty cakes. That's gonna be one of those type
• 24:12
  Speaker 3: soccer bone is this another and soccer bone ups?
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: Anyway?
• 24:17
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I know you're you're a Saudiomani guy, so I
• 24:19
  Speaker 3: know you've got a soft spot for Senegal. All right,
• 24:21
  Speaker 3: mister Liverpool, I understand, I understand, and I respect it.
• 24:25
  Speaker 3: I do want to ask I'm going to google that
• 24:26
  Speaker 3: here momentary. Let's ask you about the Canes, Goldie, because
• 24:30
  Speaker 3: we're sitting here all caught up in all these hornets
• 24:32
  Speaker 3: wheeling and dealing and stuff. This has been our world,
• 24:35
  Speaker 3: but then it is wild. But the Canes, like, I
• 24:38
  Speaker 3: don't want to you know what I mean, they're the
• 24:41
  Speaker 3: damn champs. I don't want all of a sudden just
• 24:43
  Speaker 3: be like, oh yeah, I forgot about the Like, I
• 24:46
  Speaker 3: am still very intrigued by what they might do in
• 24:48
  Speaker 3: the off season. There's been talk about the Nikisha trade.
• 24:50
  Speaker 3: They made a deal over Draft weekend right too, as
• 24:53
  Speaker 3: far as bringing in defensive help, and then there's so like,
• 24:57
  Speaker 3: what's going on? What's going on with them?
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: You think, let's let's deal with the trade they made first.
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: They really didn't do anything yet because they traded for
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: somebody who's tomorrow going to be an unrestricted free agent.
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: And now John Carlson is a potential NHL Hall of
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: Famer right shot defenseman, outstanding offensively still even though he's
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: thirty six. But I have a hard time believing that
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: the Hurricanes are going to pay him ten million dollars
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: a year and somebody else will so. And if I
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: were the Hurricanes, I wouldn't give him ten million dollars
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: a year because to me, John Carlson is a luxury
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: to them, not a necessity. So I believe that they'll
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: probably unless they can work out some creative way to
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: lessen that salary cap hit. I think they'll probably just
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: let him walk into free agency, or maybe we'll get
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: a notification today that the Hurricanes have flipped his rights
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: for a fifth round pick. I have no idea, but
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: I don't I don't think John Carlson will be with
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: the team starting tomorrow. I think there's I think Alexander
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: mckeishon will. I think that they will try and hammer
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: out a short bridge contract with Nikeshon. He showed offensive
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: promise last year. He's a little bit of a defensive liability,
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: but he's got upside and if they can get him
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: on the same page defensively, then I think that would
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: be the best case scenario for Carolina. But I don't
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: think they're going to pay him what he would get
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: on an eight year contract right now. I think that
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: because they don't know how good he's going to be.
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: He was no good in the playoffs. He was a
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: complete liability and he didn't even provide offense in the playoffs.
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: So like, it remains to be seen what this guy's
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: gonna be. But I think they do a short term
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: deal and not get him quite the free agency, maybe
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: a year of it, and just kick that can down
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: the road, which is I think to better play anyway.
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: Plus he gives them a little bit of thump on
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: the back end. He's got an elite shot and he
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: does show offensive instinct, So I would have no problem
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: with them bringing nikeishon back. Seth Jarvis is gonna have
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: surgery or had surgery on his shoulder. He's gonna miss
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: their saying the first month of the season. I think
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: he's that he's gonna be out until probably Christmas, which
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: is fine. You only need Seth Jarvis when the games
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: really start to count, so you know, if you missed
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: the Jacob Slavan missed the first half of the season.
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: They didn't get hurt by Jacob Slavan being out half
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: the year, so they can. They can survive without Seth
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: Jarvis for half the season as long as he's back.
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: At the business end of.
• 27:50
  Speaker 5: It, text, you're asking bird Dog BlackBerry's asking about the
• 27:55
  Speaker 5: chances of a Connor Hellbuck trade.
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: I don't it's it's not in there. It's not their style.
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: This this is the team that the philosophy of the
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: Hurricanes has been, you don't need an elite goaltender, you
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: need good goaltending. And they don't believe it is worth
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: the value to pay, you know. And Hella Bucks contract
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: got five more years left on it at eight point
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: five million.
• 28:24
  Speaker 3: That's yeah.
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: Absolutely, And when I saw the headline that the Hurricanes
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: might do that, I went, what the hell is going on?
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: But the you guys just let that go.
• 28:41
  Speaker 3: That's fine.
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: But a half million is not egregious when it comes
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: to a three time Vesnor Trophy winner. But I still
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: think that it's not necessarily Carolina's style. I think that
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: they're very content going into the season with Brandon Bussy
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: and Pyotr Kachekov as a goaltending tandem. They'll have to
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: bring in another goalie they can put in the minor
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: leagues who can play NHL games. I think Frederick Anderson
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: probably either walks into free agency or retires, although I
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: think if I were Freddy, I don't want to play.
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: I just think it's going to be elsewhere, and that's
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: the way I think he'll approach goaltending. But I mean,
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: I've been wrong before with big moves that they've made,
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: so we'll see what they can do.
• 29:29
  Speaker 3: Mag hell bugs your USA goalie there, I don't uh, yeah,
• 29:32
  Speaker 3: I love him for that, but I don't give a
• 29:33
  Speaker 3: hell a buck about this story. For the Canes bussy
• 29:36
  Speaker 3: or bus, baby, I I want to ride that bus
• 29:38
  Speaker 3: that interested.
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: In his career, he has been poor in the postseason.
• 29:44
  Speaker 3: Interesting. Interesting, I want to ride that bussy. Let's do it, baby,
• 29:48
  Speaker 3: all right? So, uh, before you go Goaldie, we got
• 29:53
  Speaker 3: to ask you about this because Bone I don't know
• 29:56
  Speaker 3: if he admits it much publicly, Bone is nervous about
• 30:00
  Speaker 3: John Shire in the NBA. Explain yourself to Goldie here, Bone, Well,
• 30:04
  Speaker 3: it makes sense.
• 30:04
  Speaker 5: Sadly, he and Dusty may both got linked in the
• 30:07
  Speaker 5: process to the Dallas job, and obviously for Shire it's
• 30:11
  Speaker 5: because of Cooper flag. I don't think it's because of
• 30:14
  Speaker 5: Derek Lively. I think it's because of Cooper Flag. And
• 30:16
  Speaker 5: then to my understanding, that was not just thrown out there.
• 30:20
  Speaker 5: There was serious consideration by Shy.
• 30:24
  Speaker 3: No.
• 30:24
  Speaker 5: I know he turned it down, but I that it
• 30:26
  Speaker 5: wasn't just idle chatter that he really had to he
• 30:29
  Speaker 5: had to think about it. So in the future, with
• 30:32
  Speaker 5: all these duke guys in the league, at some point
• 30:35
  Speaker 5: will there be a situation that he's drawn to and
• 30:37
  Speaker 5: he will do Maybe not like right now.
• 30:39
  Speaker 3: The time though, right he's got a lot of work
• 30:41
  Speaker 3: to do, like things he wants to common.
• 30:43
  Speaker 5: Well, he's got to figure out how to close out games.
• 30:45
  Speaker 5: That's number one year. But is that am I? Am
• 30:47
  Speaker 5: I just being a paranoid peede over.
• 30:49
  Speaker 3: This whole thing?
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: Yes? Yes, Look, at some point the entire NBA is
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: just going to be duke players, So it wouldn't be
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: just Dallas that I mean, heck, he can go to
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: the Hornets.
• 31:05
  Speaker 3: Uh.
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: And by the way, I got to feel that Shire
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: is going to stay at Duke until we're all out
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: of canipples. So apparently apparently five brothers. Yes, So the
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: second one, Kagan just committed the duke. I don't know
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: what his name is.
• 31:28
  Speaker 3: We're a cousin, cousin.
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: I love that. It's it's very spicy.
• 31:35
  Speaker 5: He's actually thought of as a higher prospect at this
• 31:38
  Speaker 5: point than con was.
• 31:39
  Speaker 3: He six getting bigger? Yeah, six ten.
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: Well, you know, never mind, there's a joke there somewhere.
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: I'm going to leave alone. Look, I think duke is
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: a different job than just about everywhere else in college.
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: They obviously there's pressure to win, but for a for
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: a school that doesn't bring in a ton of revenue
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: from football, they don't have any wants in basketball. They
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: generate cash in basketball, they can. They are self supporting,
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: and so the you know, the whole idea of well
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: we have to produce forty dollars for our roster. Duke
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: doesn't seem to have an issue with that. And I
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: don't know what they're paying their roster. I'm sure it's
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: not cheap. But I never hear John complain about, well
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: we need this. I never hear him on the rubber
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: Chicken circuit begging for cash they generated. So I'm not
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: really concerned about that for me. You know, Bill Belichick
• 32:49
  Speaker 1: joked about it, or they didn't joke. They were serious
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: about it. Sadly, the thirty third NFL franchise Duke really
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: runs like an.
• 32:57
  Speaker 3: Nbation they do, which makes me wane if eventually could
• 33:01
  Speaker 3: he be the NBA type of coach players coach, but
• 33:04
  Speaker 3: I think it would.
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: Be a long since he's an elite basketball coach, not
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: because he's got a bunch of players.
• 33:08
  Speaker 3: Absolutely absolutely I agree with you on that. All right, Goldie,
• 33:12
  Speaker 3: you rock man. We appreciate all the good Canes, intel,
• 33:16
  Speaker 3: the friendly banter. We'll talk about uh, the USA next week,
• 33:22
  Speaker 3: my god, next week at this time, hopefully we're talking
• 33:24
  Speaker 3: about a quarterfinal matchup. But appreciate you, Goldie, Thanks so much, man.
• 33:29
  Speaker 3: Any time there you go, Adam, go listen to him
• 33:32
  Speaker 3: tonight and every weeknight on w f n Z. People
• 33:35
  Speaker 3: are dying over that moment with Goldie, just completely organic.
• 33:39
  Speaker 3: As he tried to figure out cajor Canipple's name the ladies,
• 33:44
  Speaker 3: he went Coggan Canipple, and then we said no, no,
• 33:47
  Speaker 3: no cajer and he said Cajun Canipple. I hope there's
• 33:52
  Speaker 3: a cousin down there like he was the one. He
• 33:54
  Speaker 3: was born in Louisiana, Bon conceived in Louisiana. He's the
• 33:57
  Speaker 3: one they don't talk a whole lot about. Oh god,
• 34:01
  Speaker 3: that was funny, man. So here they are. We've got Conah,
• 34:05
  Speaker 3: We've got Cagre. We kind of established those two right.
• 34:08
  Speaker 3: Then it's Kinston, then it's Cash and then it's Kidman.
• 34:12
  Speaker 3: So there's three other ones after this. Unbelievable, man, unbelievable.
• 34:16
  Speaker 3: So Cajr Canipple, How old is he? Cagr has one
• 34:20
  Speaker 3: more year of high school to go, so he said,
• 34:23
  Speaker 3: rising scene, rising scene, and he has committed to do
• 34:25
  Speaker 3: all right, let's go.
• 34:26
  Speaker 5: Then we got Kinston, who's in twenty How about this?
• 34:28
  Speaker 5: We have one in twenty seven, one in twenty eight,
• 34:31
  Speaker 5: one in twenty nine, one and thirty Oh my.
• 34:34
  Speaker 3: God, how many of how many will the hornets have simultaneously?
• 34:37
  Speaker 3: Jeff Peterson, I need to know a lot of people
• 34:39
  Speaker 3: want to know when you're gonna use the trade exception.
• 34:41
  Speaker 5: I want to know how many Canipples you look back
• 34:43
  Speaker 5: as as you get older and struggle with names. How
• 34:45
  Speaker 5: are you gonna figure this one out? Along the way,
• 34:47
  Speaker 5: Oh Goldie.
• 34:48
  Speaker 3: We're gonna we're getting you know, we're gonna have to
• 34:49
  Speaker 3: do uh quiz Goldie every year on the new cannipple
• 34:52
  Speaker 3: we can there.
• 34:53
  Speaker 5: Could be I don't think cage is gonna out. There
• 34:55
  Speaker 5: could be four canipples at once, conceivably, Man, that is
• 34:59
  Speaker 5: a whole lot of canipple.

• 37:50
  Speaker 3: He asked the question Bone with LaMelo ball out of Charlotte,
• 37:54
  Speaker 3: who is now the face of Charlotte sports. It warrants
• 37:58
  Speaker 3: a conversation. I think it's a fun conversation. It was
• 38:01
  Speaker 3: a cool column. Check it out in the Charlotte Observer.
• 38:03
  Speaker 3: We'll talk about that and then something that I'm not
• 38:06
  Speaker 3: sure is going to be a fun conversation for sports
• 38:08
  Speaker 3: fans in Charlotte. Bone Brian Murphy wril to talk about
• 38:12
  Speaker 3: Rally's push for major League Baseball, and it is going
• 38:16
  Speaker 3: to exhibit how much further along they are than a
• 38:20
  Speaker 3: Charlotte push for major League baseball. I mean, so much
• 38:24
  Speaker 3: further along. But anyway, they actually have money in a plan.
• 38:27
  Speaker 3: They have money. The folks in the House and Senate
• 38:30
  Speaker 3: are actually entertaining funding as well. So anyway, we'll let
• 38:34
  Speaker 3: you hear that one, and then I'm sure we'll get
• 38:36
  Speaker 3: a bunch of text saying I ain't switching from my
• 38:38
  Speaker 3: team to Rally's team. So I'm sure that'll come up.
• 38:41
  Speaker 3: But in the meantime, this is this is a time
• 38:46
  Speaker 3: to ask the audience. Fitty and I were talking yesterday
• 38:49
  Speaker 3: bone after you left to be with your new puppy, Murphy.
• 38:52
  Speaker 3: We are worried that Murphy will break your will. We
• 38:55
  Speaker 3: need this to work. We need you and Murphy to
• 38:58
  Speaker 3: be a long dog owner dog partnership. But you definitely
• 39:03
  Speaker 3: need to talk to the puppy owners past and present.
• 39:06
  Speaker 3: There definitely needs to be an ask the audience of
• 39:08
  Speaker 3: what are people's tips on how to deal because it
• 39:11
  Speaker 3: sounds like you are dealing with how do I put it,
• 39:14
  Speaker 3: It's like the Carson. It's the Carson host of our puppies,
• 39:19
  Speaker 3: just unrolling and just wreck shop. But he doesn't.
• 39:22
  Speaker 5: Again, I want to reiterate, he is a bulldog terrier mix.
• 39:26
  Speaker 3: He's won.
• 39:27
  Speaker 5: He's already been rehomed once or twice, so he's got
• 39:31
  Speaker 5: and it's only worried about him. Man, He's a good dog.
• 39:33
  Speaker 5: He has his chill moment, so I don't want to
• 39:35
  Speaker 5: make it seem like he's trying to be destructive. He's
• 39:38
  Speaker 5: just such a different dog than what Mabel was he barks,
• 39:43
  Speaker 5: he moves. Mabel Mack wouldn't move for days. I'd have
• 39:46
  Speaker 5: to like snap my fingers and Nike, Hey, you know
• 39:48
  Speaker 5: I have, But you get like Mabel was like the
• 39:50
  Speaker 5: ultimate chill dog. They said on his bio. He very
• 39:54
  Speaker 5: much twice in Netflix and Jill. I'm not really seeing
• 39:57
  Speaker 5: a whole lot of shilling. But he his whole thing
• 40:01
  Speaker 5: is when he plays. It's hard to play with them
• 40:04
  Speaker 5: because he just goes and nibbles right for the arms,
• 40:07
  Speaker 5: like whole arm in the like whole arm in the mouth.
• 40:10
  Speaker 3: And he's not trying to hurt. But I cannot believe
• 40:12
  Speaker 3: the marks he put on your arms.
• 40:14
  Speaker 5: There's one up here. But he's playing, he's making fun.
• 40:16
  Speaker 5: He got up her arm yesterday as each you look
• 40:19
  Speaker 5: like you played in the Netherlands Morocco soccer game. My God,
• 40:22
  Speaker 5: the the but you know what I look like Cam
• 40:24
  Speaker 5: Boozer in that one time will use in the paint.
• 40:26
  Speaker 3: Every bit of pain he inflicts on you like he's
• 40:28
  Speaker 3: having fun playing. He's just got to get the energy out,
• 40:31
  Speaker 3: like that'd be the first thing, Like you gotta walk
• 40:33
  Speaker 3: this dude bony like a ton.
• 40:37
  Speaker 5: Yeah, it seems like he's extremely under took him to
• 40:40
  Speaker 5: the dog park all three days, and he does it
• 40:42
  Speaker 5: for some reason. Two of the mornings on the weekend
• 40:45
  Speaker 5: we went out there. He doesn't move, He just sits there.
• 40:47
  Speaker 5: He doesn't want to. I don't understand like this. I
• 40:50
  Speaker 5: would think that he would like to run, but he
• 40:52
  Speaker 5: just kind of chills.
• 40:53
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 40:54
  Speaker 5: He doesn't do anything. This text he wants to. He
• 40:56
  Speaker 5: wants to terrorize me.
• 40:58
  Speaker 3: This sextra says, I have two boxers, take him to
• 41:01
  Speaker 3: a huge open park and let him have at it.
• 41:04
  Speaker 3: Get him lickpad so he can stimulate himself. Hey, now
• 41:07
  Speaker 3: Fiddy's intrigued by that.
• 41:09
  Speaker 5: I do have water. I do have the water bottle.
• 41:13
  Speaker 5: That's what he calls his old apartment. I have spray
• 41:17
  Speaker 5: bottles on the way today. Maybe that'll help a little bit.
• 41:19
  Speaker 5: So you're gonna like when he does bad, you're gonna
• 41:21
  Speaker 5: spray him that. There's also a chance that he turned
• 41:24
  Speaker 5: around and sprays me in the face.
• 41:25
  Speaker 1: With the water.
• 41:25
  Speaker 3: We always we got trainers now in full disclass. I
• 41:28
  Speaker 3: have one in the works than the Wizard of Pause. Apparently,
• 41:32
  Speaker 3: that's definitely a good idea to get a professional. But
• 41:34
  Speaker 3: the thing is, though You've got to stay vigilant. Our
• 41:37
  Speaker 3: problem as dog owners are we are like softies and
• 41:41
  Speaker 3: not vigilant. So once we get done with the dog
• 41:44
  Speaker 3: training and they're really good, then I don't stay vigilant enough,
• 41:48
  Speaker 3: and then all of a sudden, the dogs are like,
• 41:50
  Speaker 3: oh shoot, I don't need to listen to this dude.
• 41:52
  Speaker 3: We gonna go back to the way it used to be.
• 41:54
  Speaker 3: Stay vigilant. Yeah, man, wizard of pause. Matt just looks
• 41:57
  Speaker 3: at the dogs and it and it helps him out.
• 41:59
  Speaker 5: You just stay Is that him? How good this guy is?
• 42:01
  Speaker 5: Good cause? And looks at the dogs?
• 42:04
  Speaker 3: Yeah? This guy, this guy sounds sounds intimidating. What are
• 42:09
  Speaker 3: your tips for bone in dealing with the rambunctious puppy?
• 42:13
  Speaker 5: So that he tried to join the Mooresville Run Club
• 42:15
  Speaker 5: this morning. Coincidentally, I opened the door to walk them
• 42:18
  Speaker 5: this morning and the Mooresville Run Club was running through
• 42:21
  Speaker 5: the apartment complex, fifteen people, And at four forty five am,
• 42:26
  Speaker 5: he decided today he was going to individually bark at
• 42:29
  Speaker 5: all fifteen people. The whole neighborhood was woken up this morning.
• 42:32
  Speaker 5: He's gonna get me thrown out of here.
• 42:34
  Speaker 3: This dude, says, treats based training is the way to go.
• 42:39
  Speaker 3: So I get, are they saying positive reinforcement instead of
• 42:42
  Speaker 3: the negative, instead of like the water bottle. No, I
• 42:45
  Speaker 3: am a positive reinforcement. I am a long way we were.
• 42:48
  Speaker 3: Our dogs were always trying. I didn't just have Mabel
• 42:51
  Speaker 3: when I was married. We had two dogs and we
• 42:53
  Speaker 3: had them from puppies. But they they were not like
• 42:56
  Speaker 3: the aggressive. This is a different level of of the
• 43:01
  Speaker 3: you have though, Like if you keep comparing yourself to
• 43:03
  Speaker 3: a coach, Mabel was like coaching the dream team, not yeah,
• 43:08
  Speaker 3: the dream team, and now you are coaching the seven
• 43:12
  Speaker 3: win Bobcats, like you just can't get any results now.
• 43:16
  Speaker 3: I mean, Mabel just was made to order man for
• 43:19
  Speaker 3: a dog, a dog owner's dream BoNT.
• 43:22
  Speaker 5: And I and you know, my worries about her were
• 43:24
  Speaker 5: always not behavior but health related, like what's going on?
• 43:27
  Speaker 5: Is she okay? This guy? I mean, do you know
• 43:30
  Speaker 5: Mac yesterday? He I mean, there are so many things
• 43:33
  Speaker 5: that happened yesterday when I got home and I was
• 43:36
  Speaker 5: changing he he also was attached to me already, so
• 43:39
  Speaker 5: like every every step he's there, I couldn't even take
• 43:42
  Speaker 5: my pants off yesterday. He was so up on me,
• 43:45
  Speaker 5: and then he ended up knocking my wallet. He ended
• 43:48
  Speaker 5: up with the wallet and up on the ground, and
• 43:50
  Speaker 5: he started taking the credit cards away. He started walking
• 43:53
  Speaker 5: away with the credit cards. Oh yeah, you got a puppy.
• 43:55
  Speaker 5: All right, man, nothing's safe now. If you know what,
• 43:57
  Speaker 5: it's a white def someone in your house, try to
• 43:58
  Speaker 5: take all your money and your credit cards.
• 44:01
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm married. I definitely got that anyway, Carolina, Mike says,
• 44:06
  Speaker 3: freeze a kung with peanut butter inside it. So that
• 44:10
  Speaker 3: is a treaty's going for. This texture says, when they
• 44:13
  Speaker 3: get worked up, you got to say go to your crate,
• 44:15
  Speaker 3: and you got to get him disciplined enough to where
• 44:17
  Speaker 3: they will go to their crate on their own. Oh,
• 44:19
  Speaker 3: I remember those good old days. Guy said, this is great.
• 44:21
  Speaker 5: It's not easy though. It takes a while. Great advice
• 44:23
  Speaker 5: from this state fan Bone. You have to train him
• 44:25
  Speaker 5: to stop biting you. Yeah, that's what we're trying to
• 44:27
  Speaker 5: do here. Bal thanks for that.
• 44:30
  Speaker 3: This dude said, pop theman the nose with a newspaper.
• 44:32
  Speaker 3: That was like my dad's old school way of doing it,
• 44:34
  Speaker 3: and it works. I don't know, I don't like I'm
• 44:39
  Speaker 3: not as enough of a hard ass to do the
• 44:40
  Speaker 3: old pop in the newspaper. But then again, Rocket acts
• 44:43
  Speaker 3: like he's a one year old right now, So maybe
• 44:45
  Speaker 3: I should have Yeah, maybe I should have done that.
• 44:47
  Speaker 5: Tara saw me yesterday challenge him to a fight. I said,
• 44:52
  Speaker 5: all right, you want to go, we're gonna go. I
• 44:54
  Speaker 5: tried to alpha male this guy. So I'm gonna stand
• 44:56
  Speaker 5: over you and we're gonna have it out here and
• 44:58
  Speaker 5: we're gonna warn some lessons. Both my arms ended up
• 45:00
  Speaker 5: believing that's not really because that's playing. I went, I
• 45:03
  Speaker 5: went Irish style and this guy it ended up being
• 45:08
  Speaker 5: Mike Tyson versus Peter McNeely, and I was not Mike
• 45:10
  Speaker 5: Tyson in this case.
• 45:12
