Mac & Bone Hour 4: HOF Game - What 2 Watch 4 · Mac & Bone Podcast

0:18
Speaker 1: I think they are overrated at twenty three.
0:21
Speaker 2: For fifteen years when these polls come out, I have
0:24
Speaker 2: taken a stance and said there are too many teams
0:28
Speaker 2: and a lot of them played in the SEC. I
0:29
Speaker 2: will admit that, but I have a principle that I
0:32
Speaker 2: will not give up on no matter what conference you're
0:34
Speaker 2: play in.
0:35
Speaker 1: You cannot live just off the brand, and Clemson.
0:37
Speaker 2: Has a rich, storied, successful brand in college football.
0:42
Speaker 1: But they shouldn't deserve the benefit of the doubt.
0:44
Speaker 2: They might be really good and answer some of the
0:47
Speaker 2: questions that we have about them coming into the season,
0:49
Speaker 2: But to just PLoP them in there in the top
0:51
Speaker 2: twenty five because they've won multiple national championships in Davos
0:55
Speaker 2: Sweeney as one of the top coaches in college football,
0:58
Speaker 2: I don't think that's right. They were not very good
1:00
Speaker 2: last year, they were not very good the season before,
1:03
Speaker 2: and they have a ton of questions on this team.
1:06
Speaker 2: I think Clemson at twenty three is overrated at the spot.
1:10
Speaker 2: Make them earn it, show us that you're back to
1:12
Speaker 2: your winning ways before you just PLoP them in there
1:14
Speaker 2: with a number before their name.
1:16
Speaker 3: Danny Canell, who usually will shill for anything in the
1:19
Speaker 3: acc Bone at him to the list of national media
1:23
Speaker 3: members who have said, Clemson, you don't deserve to be
1:26
Speaker 3: number twenty three? What's up with that Mac and Bone
1:30
Speaker 3: show with you? We got to talk a little college football.
1:32
Speaker 3: We will finally get down the business and talk about
1:36
Speaker 3: tonight's Hall of Fame game in Canton. Will start to
1:40
Speaker 3: look at what is worth what and who is worth
1:43
Speaker 3: watching tonight? Bone, All right, we understand. We understand that
1:47
Speaker 3: the vast majority of players you may want to watch.
1:49
Speaker 4: Will be in jumpsuits. Also, just found out there's a
1:52
Speaker 4: big musical act performing in can today before the game.
1:55
Speaker 4: Carolina Mike has has made his way to Canton. He's
1:59
Speaker 4: playing one hundred and fifty thousand dollars somewhere in can Today.
2:02
Speaker 4: Alex Zeloe has the article of about him today, Carolina Mike.
2:06
Speaker 4: The journey continues.
2:07
Speaker 3: So Bryce Young might not be playing, Jalen Phillips might
2:10
Speaker 3: not be playing, but Carolina Mike is playing. Baby can't
2:14
Speaker 3: get him out of the line up. Oh my gosh,
2:17
Speaker 3: what song do you think he's gonna do? Carolina Mike
2:21
Speaker 3: has taken one song? Is there a one? I listen,
2:24
Speaker 3: God bless you. I'm mad at you. He's such a
2:26
Speaker 3: nice guy, two Bone, and he loves the Panthers bleeds
2:30
Speaker 3: black and blue. But has any one hit wonder in
2:33
Speaker 3: the history of music? Taking one song to these great lengths?
2:37
Speaker 3: This is remarkable, man, it is. Can I make a comparison?
2:42
Speaker 4: Is he? Then no Ice? Cuz? Go ahead and mac
2:46
Speaker 4: real quick name another Van no Ice song? Yeah, all right,
2:50
Speaker 4: see there you guys. I yeah, that's that is another conversation. Bone.
2:54
Speaker 3: Maybe we'll save it for next July, since we finally
2:56
Speaker 3: we have football. Now one hit wonders, man, hit one
3:00
Speaker 3: is a good conversation, Carolina.
3:03
Speaker 4: Yeah. I don't know any other Chumbawamba songs either. For
3:05
Speaker 4: that matter, there were what was the throng called thub
3:08
Speaker 4: thub thumping, tub thumb tub thump. Yeah, I got it
3:10
Speaker 4: on there. I get knocked down and I get up again.
3:14
Speaker 4: I never got to keep it down. I get Yeah.
3:16
Speaker 4: Hello that one baby for this season? Yeah baby, we
3:19
Speaker 4: got knocked down with a couple injuries. Well we up again.
3:22
Speaker 3: All right, So Panthers talk coming up at nine twenty five.
3:26
Speaker 4: But let's have some college football talk.
3:27
Speaker 3: So the athletic does this this thing on their college
3:30
Speaker 3: football page, Bone called the hope of meter, or maybe
3:33
Speaker 3: it's supposed to be hopometer.
3:34
Speaker 4: I don't know.
3:34
Speaker 3: That might that might sound smoother, the hopometer. And it
3:38
Speaker 3: is a survey that fans take on behalf of their
3:41
Speaker 3: school and they are trying to find out which fan
3:44
Speaker 3: bases have the most hope, which fan bases don't. They're
3:47
Speaker 3: trying to trying to quantify the hope of college football
3:50
Speaker 3: fans across the country. I want to steal that bit
3:53
Speaker 3: bone for our purposes here and I want to find
3:56
Speaker 3: out from you fans in the Carolinas, of of the
4:00
Speaker 3: local teams in the Carolinas, if we go one to ten,
4:04
Speaker 3: if we go one to ten, and you have to
4:06
Speaker 3: put a number on how hopeful you are for this
4:08
Speaker 3: college football season, I would like y'all to weigh in
4:12
Speaker 3: if we want everybody Charlotte, ECU, app if we can
4:15
Speaker 3: get at least one representative, if not multiple, from all
4:18
Speaker 3: the schools, obviously the power for schools to South Carolina, Clemson, Carolina,
4:24
Speaker 3: Wake State, all.
4:25
Speaker 4: Of them, all of them.
4:26
Speaker 3: I would just be curious if you would put a
4:30
Speaker 3: number on your level of optimism. Duke too, I don't
4:32
Speaker 3: think I mentioned bone your level of optimism for this
4:35
Speaker 3: year's football season, what would it be? Seven oh four, five,
4:40
Speaker 3: seven oh nine, six, ten. For example, bone if I
4:44
Speaker 3: were to do say I was bullish on NC State
4:47
Speaker 3: and was excited about NC State having CJ.
4:50
Speaker 4: Bailey back and having this schedule.
4:52
Speaker 3: They got Okay and Duke Scott in the backfield, I
4:56
Speaker 3: would sound like you're saying, I would say a for
5:00
Speaker 3: NC State. I would say eight out of ten because
5:04
Speaker 3: I'm trying to be fair, Like ten is oh my god,
5:06
Speaker 3: we might win some sort of championship. But I think
5:09
Speaker 3: NC State can have a really good, fun season better
5:14
Speaker 3: than last year. I'm not getting crazy and saying it's
5:16
Speaker 3: Dorn's first ten win season or anything, but if they
5:19
Speaker 3: won nine games, I wouldn't be shot, Like, do you
5:21
Speaker 3: think that's a fair What do you think a.
5:22
Speaker 4: Fair number would be for a state? First of all,
5:25
Speaker 4: for this exercise, I don't know if any teams in
5:27
Speaker 4: our area mac or hitting that nine or a ten
5:29
Speaker 4: years the well, that's a great question. That's a good point.
5:32
Speaker 4: There are some there are some fans of teams not
5:35
Speaker 4: in the area that maybe have a nine or ten.
5:37
Speaker 4: I don't know if that's here, But again, it's the
5:40
Speaker 4: people's views. Of their own team. For State, I don't
5:43
Speaker 4: know if I would go eight, but I probably go,
5:46
Speaker 4: you know, seven point five, seven points some more than Neighborhood.
5:49
Speaker 4: You're close to it. Their quarterback is going to win
5:51
Speaker 4: them a lot of games. They've got the schedule. I
5:53
Speaker 4: think it's about a seven point five for State. I
5:56
Speaker 4: expect e j.
5:57
Speaker 3: Elliott to have a a I think the defense to
5:59
Speaker 3: be better than this year under DJ Eliot next year.
6:01
Speaker 3: But they made a scheme change there and he went
6:05
Speaker 3: through some stuff and I'm sure that affected the performance.
6:08
Speaker 3: We've got a couple of State fans saying eight. This
6:11
Speaker 3: Texter says, as a die hard State fan, I do
6:14
Speaker 3: not want to be optimistic, and I certainly don't want
6:17
Speaker 3: mac optimistic. Yeah, we've tried this before, especially the season
6:22
Speaker 3: they loaded up in the portal and they got Grayson McCall.
6:25
Speaker 4: That was horrible. We'll visit this, let's see how people
6:28
Speaker 4: are feeling about Mac. So South Carolina is a pretty
6:31
Speaker 4: I don't know.
6:31
Speaker 3: I think fans are pretty optimistic at least that it'll
6:35
Speaker 3: that they will bounce back from last year. I don't
6:39
Speaker 3: want to put words in y'all's mouth, y'all text in
6:41
Speaker 3: what would you say, one to ten? What's your hope
6:46
Speaker 3: meter number? I've got eight and a half. Oh so
6:49
Speaker 3: when you've got number, when you've.
6:51
Speaker 4: Got a talent like Sellers on offense, you've got a
6:54
Speaker 4: Stewart on defense. And this is not the normal gauntlet
6:58
Speaker 4: to start a season. It's kent State, it's towsand its
7:01
Speaker 4: Mississippi State. It's Alabama, who's not really Alabama like they
7:06
Speaker 4: used to be. And then it's Kentucky and it's Florida
7:08
Speaker 4: and Tennessee, who I think they can beat. So there's
7:11
Speaker 4: a lot of games off the jump here where I think,
7:14
Speaker 4: for once, I'm looking at the game Cocks not to
7:17
Speaker 4: just have their heads above water, but to actually put
7:20
Speaker 4: up a pretty good record to start the season. Now
7:22
Speaker 4: I don't always say that all the time. I like
7:24
Speaker 4: to go I think they're under a Normally it's taken.
7:26
Speaker 4: They go two and three or three and two and survive.
7:29
Speaker 4: That wouldn't that wouldn't do it. This year, They've got
7:31
Speaker 4: an opportunity here to win four or five games off
7:34
Speaker 4: the jump.
7:35
Speaker 3: Okay, how bout these text from South Carolina fans Carolina
7:38
Speaker 3: Crazy nine point five ice cream sandwich.
7:42
Speaker 4: South Carolina has me at nine point five.
7:45
Speaker 3: Listen today, nine point five would be what you're at
7:48
Speaker 3: least right there in like like you were two years ago,
7:50
Speaker 3: like literally like you're on the edge of the playoff
7:54
Speaker 3: at worst.
7:55
Speaker 4: Right Yeah. I don't know if any people are hyping
7:57
Speaker 4: them up, but when we.
7:58
Speaker 3: Saw the thing in the Athletic where one of the
8:00
Speaker 3: writers picked them as a sleeper playoff team, they're getting
8:03
Speaker 3: some love. Is like, can they be as good as
8:06
Speaker 3: they were? I just I can't imagine the defense. I
8:09
Speaker 3: know they got Stuart and I know they've they've got
8:13
Speaker 3: some players back in that back seven bone. It's hard
8:17
Speaker 3: for me to imagine their defense is going to be
8:18
Speaker 3: as good as that. That defense two years ago was phenomenal,
8:21
Speaker 3: you know it was.
8:22
Speaker 4: Now I'm not gonna go nine because while the front
8:26
Speaker 4: part of the schedule is more doable, they still do
8:30
Speaker 4: have Oklahoma, A and M. There's Georgia, there's Clemson. There
8:35
Speaker 4: is still it's just more backloaded this year.
8:39
Speaker 3: Maybe saying in front with them, gotta win those games early,
8:42
Speaker 3: you know, for the first five or whatever early. Now
8:45
Speaker 3: Clemson fans are all over the board. I've got an
8:47
Speaker 3: eight from a Clemson fans this involves numbers.
8:54
Speaker 4: Oh but.
8:56
Speaker 3: Got them, bone, you got them. Poor Tiger fans, all
8:59
Speaker 3: countries on them. Overrated this week and vote vote has
9:04
Speaker 3: been piling on this. Texter says eight for Clemson. Now,
9:07
Speaker 3: these are not the win totals.
9:08
Speaker 4: I want you to know.
9:09
Speaker 3: That some people are getting confused here. This is a
9:13
Speaker 3: very important instrument called the hopometer. Uh, we're basically stealing
9:17
Speaker 3: this from the athletic. The athletic does is to judge
9:19
Speaker 3: the optimism of fan bases in college football. We want
9:23
Speaker 3: to know one through ten, what number would you put
9:25
Speaker 3: on your hope level? What do you think for Clemson,
9:28
Speaker 3: like a seven out of ten? Like if I don't
9:31
Speaker 3: think they should be as optimistic as State or South Carolina.
9:35
Speaker 4: Well, I don't know.
9:36
Speaker 3: I think they can win eight or nine games too,
9:38
Speaker 3: But then again, it does eight or nine games.
9:41
Speaker 4: Does that equal? What does that equal on the on
9:44
Speaker 4: the hopometer?
9:45
Speaker 3: Because I don't know if like eight wins for NC
9:48
Speaker 3: State is a really good season, for South Carolina's a
9:50
Speaker 3: really good season, eight wins for Dabo Sweeney probably doesn't
9:53
Speaker 3: get y'all in Tiger Nation excited.
9:55
Speaker 4: The thing that may happen with Clemson. Even if fans
9:57
Speaker 4: are excited to start the year. Does that get knocked
10:00
Speaker 4: back early because they're going to the other death valley
10:03
Speaker 4: in LSU. If LSU puts it on them to start
10:06
Speaker 4: week one, does that get the fans in a really
10:10
Speaker 4: negative state to start the year? And then it's Miami
10:13
Speaker 4: not far down the line from that, So mag I
10:16
Speaker 4: think we're gonna find out a lot about Clemson earlier
10:19
Speaker 4: this seaon the first game. And it's not even necessarily
10:23
Speaker 4: about a win or a loss. It's about do they
10:26
Speaker 4: show up against LSU and and not get blown out
10:30
Speaker 4: like Vegas things they're gonna do.
10:32
Speaker 3: Eleven and a half or LSU, I could ease. Does
10:36
Speaker 3: Clemston go in there and show up and put up
10:39
Speaker 3: a good fight?
10:40
Speaker 4: Or are they much more like last year where they're
10:42
Speaker 4: all much of a chance to get to LSU? Last year?
10:45
Speaker 3: I mean last year was I mean they had to
10:48
Speaker 3: lead for a while last year, didn't they? What did
10:51
Speaker 3: the score end up being in that game against elis
10:53
Speaker 3: you obviously they were at home, but I I listen,
10:57
Speaker 3: I think they're losing by double digits. But I don't
10:59
Speaker 3: think that matters bone in terms of the grand scheme
11:02
Speaker 3: of things. I don't think Clemson fans should put too
11:04
Speaker 3: much stock in what happens with LSU. I guess you
11:07
Speaker 3: do get them new scheme. I was seventeen to ten
11:10
Speaker 3: last year, but yeah, it's close game, new scheme, you know,
11:15
Speaker 3: new coach, new regime, a lot of new players. So
11:17
Speaker 3: maybe you're lucky you get them at that point, but
11:19
Speaker 3: you have to play them on the road. I just
11:22
Speaker 3: I would write that game off bone and I would
11:25
Speaker 3: start to look at some of these other games in
11:26
Speaker 3: the ACC. I still think they're good enough with their
11:29
Speaker 3: schedule to win eight or nine football games, but still
11:32
Speaker 3: lose by double ditches to LSU. That's kind of the
11:35
Speaker 3: way I put it. North Carolina fans, A four millionaire
11:38
Speaker 3: says Leonora's Sellers is overrated. All in since seventy nine,
11:44
Speaker 3: says Clemson ten wins, we beat LSU by fourteen.
11:48
Speaker 4: Well, good to know whe're drinking early today. I can't
11:51
Speaker 4: go there, man, I gotta see it. Man.
11:53
Speaker 3: The LSU is you know, Kiffin's got that roster load
11:56
Speaker 3: with talent, even if it's new guys.
11:59
Speaker 4: Yeah from the City says NC State has a better
12:02
Speaker 4: chance of winning the ACC than South Carolina does. The SEC.
12:07
Speaker 4: I don't think South Carolina's winning the SEC. What's fitting
12:09
Speaker 4: from the city. I ask you this, you think NC
12:11
Speaker 4: State has a chance to win the conference? With Miami
12:14
Speaker 4: in this conference? I think NC State is finishing. I
12:17
Speaker 4: think they.
12:17
Speaker 3: I think they're finishing further up in the ACC than
12:20
Speaker 3: South Carolina is in the SEC, and I would think
12:23
Speaker 3: therefore they do have a better chance than South Carolina.
12:26
Speaker 3: No city or to Carolina has got to go through
12:28
Speaker 3: how many top ten teams but there's only one, legit top.
12:31
Speaker 4: Ten teams NC State finished in the SEC. Well that's
12:35
Speaker 4: not I mean, that's not what I'm saying. The point
12:37
Speaker 4: of this was that they have a better chance. Well,
12:40
Speaker 4: you think that the Miami's in their path? There, Fella,
12:43
Speaker 4: that you did you think they're gonna win the a
12:45
Speaker 4: CEC over Miami. But let me tell you who's in
12:47
Speaker 4: your path though, Oklahoma's youth Georgia. But his point's not wrong.
12:58
Speaker 3: Though, if you were to give the percent chances, NC
13:00
Speaker 3: State should get a higher percent, shouldn't they because they
13:03
Speaker 3: don't have to go through that gunt.
13:05
Speaker 4: Are they better than SMU?
13:07
Speaker 3: I'm not saying they are, but I'm just saying, if
13:09
Speaker 3: you did percent chances. You honestly think that South Carolina
13:12
Speaker 3: would have a higher percent chance.
13:13
Speaker 4: But that's about the conference more so than the team. Yeah,
13:17
Speaker 4: that's a big part of it. State.
13:19
Speaker 3: I think if they played a football game on a
13:20
Speaker 3: neutral site, I think you'd be in for a hell
13:22
Speaker 3: of a football game. I think they're very even teams.
13:25
Speaker 3: But I don't know why you're fighting it. The whole
13:26
Speaker 3: point is.
13:27
Speaker 4: That because this guy se versus the SEC, but he
13:30
Speaker 4: but the state has no chance to win the ACC
13:34
Speaker 4: much like SEC at soccer, The SEC has no chance.
13:37
Speaker 4: You're about zero, would you? There's no bet there that's
13:42
Speaker 4: gonna win that one. NC State's not winning the a
13:44
Speaker 4: SEC over Miami. I know, sorry, they're not.
13:46
Speaker 3: I know this C State has a better chance of
13:49
Speaker 3: getting to their conference title game than South Carolina before
13:52
Speaker 3: I know they I'm not saying they have, but I'm again,
13:56
Speaker 3: if you were to do percentages.
13:58
Speaker 4: Yeah, wolpag mac deeply in the house, right, I.
14:00
Speaker 3: Just it's it's crazy to me that you would think
14:02
Speaker 3: it's in the SEC and that South Carolina would have
14:04
Speaker 3: made no chance to get to a title game as
14:06
Speaker 3: as NC State.
14:07
Speaker 4: Yeah but that but but there neither what is doing that.
14:11
Speaker 3: So you're saying zero percent chance NC State gets to
14:13
Speaker 3: a title game. I don't know if it's zero, but
14:17
Speaker 3: I mean, injuries happen, you know, right now. I just
14:21
Speaker 3: I think they win eight or nine games. But I
14:23
Speaker 3: just I don't know. I think you're writing them off
14:25
Speaker 3: too quickly. Here, Uh, North Carolina?
14:27
Speaker 4: Sorry, yeah, NC State it's going to the title game,
14:30
Speaker 4: because that happens all the time.
14:31
Speaker 3: I didn't say they're going to the title game. We're
14:33
Speaker 3: talking about a chance. That's all we're talking about here
14:36
Speaker 3: right Like you could be like a one percent chance.
14:39
Speaker 3: We hired on what you think.
14:41
Speaker 4: Let's read.
14:42
Speaker 3: Let's get some of these other fan bases in here,
14:45
Speaker 3: seven oh four, five, seven oh nine six, Then feel
14:48
Speaker 3: free to argue if you're a South Carolina or NC
14:50
Speaker 3: State fan. Hey, we've got a Carolina fan that says
14:52
Speaker 3: negative one million is my hope A meter number from
14:57
Speaker 3: one to ten. Carolina fan says four. This dude says,
15:01
Speaker 3: I hope the football season goes by fast. I'm a
15:04
Speaker 3: Carolina fan. I don't even I don't even know what
15:07
Speaker 3: to say to Carolina fans. Man, Well, we got us
15:11
Speaker 3: about Carolina this morning. I don't even I don't even know.
15:13
Speaker 4: What to say.
15:14
Speaker 3: And now, yeah, now Steve Belichick is what on on
15:17
Speaker 3: health related leave or whatever.
15:18
Speaker 4: Belichick announced today that his son Steve DC's on medical
15:21
Speaker 4: lead for the time being.
15:22
Speaker 3: So, I mean, that's another blow. I mean it hits

15:28
Speaker 3: a number one through ten on your hope for Carolina,
15:31
Speaker 3: what would you make a fitty three?
15:35
Speaker 4: Yeah?
15:36
Speaker 3: I mean if you I hate to do this because
15:38
Speaker 3: I hate to be the guy that just roots for
15:40
Speaker 3: the coach, you get fired. But if you can just
15:42
Speaker 3: start over and they're willing to invest in football the
15:46
Speaker 3: way they have and they hire an actual, competent, experience
15:49
Speaker 3: college coach, maybe they can bring the hope back that way.
15:53
Speaker 4: You know.
15:56
Speaker 3: Let's see Duke. This guy's mad bone all caught up
16:00
Speaker 3: in an argument about South Carolina. What about his Duke?
16:03
Speaker 4: Boys, I've talked Duke the entire summer. Do you have
16:06
Speaker 4: us as a seven out of ten on the hope meter?
16:10
Speaker 1: Yeah?
16:10
Speaker 4: If I've dive down played them the last two offseasons
16:13
Speaker 4: and I've been wrong about it. H concerned about the
16:17
Speaker 4: drop off in quarterback. But it's a team that that
16:19
Speaker 4: won nine games with the League Murphy a couple of
16:21
Speaker 4: years ago. I think they're a bowl team. I think
16:24
Speaker 4: they can win seven games. I don't think they're gonna
16:27
Speaker 4: get to the nine that they've got to the last
16:30
Speaker 4: couple of years. But I also think that many Das
16:32
Speaker 4: has some them to operate here for the job he's
16:35
Speaker 4: done the last couple of years. So if they don't
16:36
Speaker 4: win eight or nine games, that's not an indictment on
16:39
Speaker 4: anything other than they have to sort of retool with
16:41
Speaker 4: a lot of losses in the offseason, including bark with Mensa.
16:46
Speaker 4: But they have the best running back in the conference
16:48
Speaker 4: in Nate Sheppard, so that's got to mean something.
16:50
Speaker 3: I would think wolf Pack Max says, I like Duke
16:54
Speaker 3: Scott better, But that's a whole note.
16:56
Speaker 4: So I'm just kidding.
16:56
Speaker 3: I'm just kidding, although I might But anyway, I would
17:01
Speaker 3: put them though, at a six, like if we're doing
17:02
Speaker 3: opa meter six out of ten.
17:04
Speaker 4: They can't be up there in the seven range, can they?
17:06
Speaker 4: Though they lost too much. I mean, I'm not but again,
17:09
Speaker 4: I'm not saying he can't that many things can't go
17:11
Speaker 4: seven to five or something like that. But again, he's
17:14
Speaker 4: lost a lot the previous two years, and he seems
17:16
Speaker 4: to manage. So I would say a second.
17:18
Speaker 3: Like, we have no idea if this quarterback could play
17:21
Speaker 3: dead in the Western Well no, like I just said, fellow,
17:24
Speaker 3: we got no idea. Murphy's got talent, though, he's got
17:28
Speaker 3: like arm talent. He was at Texans. Y'all are getting
17:30
Speaker 3: a due from San Jose State.
17:32
Speaker 4: They didn't win nine games though, because I'm lak Murphy.
17:34
Speaker 4: He struggled a lot. Remember he also went out of
17:35
Speaker 4: for few. The defense is great, but I just I
17:38
Speaker 4: don't know. So what is your duke copa meter number?
17:40
Speaker 4: I said? Seven? Seven? All right? Now, they play Illinois
17:44
Speaker 4: in the second game. That's gonna be tough. But again
17:46
Speaker 4: to Lane lost their coach. They play Stanford William and
17:49
Speaker 4: Mary Georgia Tech will not be the same at State,
17:52
Speaker 4: at Miami Clemson. Well, look at the start of the season, though,
17:55
Speaker 4: what game you don't have Louisville or SMU though, what
17:58
Speaker 4: game that's good? I have a question for you. This
18:01
Speaker 4: is not saying they can win them all or will
18:03
Speaker 4: win them all. What game all the way up until
18:07
Speaker 4: and Andy they played in He said, very well. By
18:09
Speaker 4: the way, the last couple of years, what game all
18:12
Speaker 4: the way to November is impossible for them to win? Dulaane, Illinois, Stanford,
18:19
Speaker 4: William Mary, Georgia Tech, Carolina, Virginia, Boston College. They they're
18:23
Speaker 4: they they're, they're, they're chanting all those games. Then he
18:26
Speaker 4: gets tougher after that.
18:27
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean Illinois, I would think they would lose.
18:31
Speaker 4: Well, what they're gonna buy some but they're not. That's
18:33
Speaker 4: not exactly a gault what they're running there either. Jeordia,
18:37
Speaker 4: Teket Virginia might be tough, but it's not like they
18:39
Speaker 4: can't beat those teams. Uh.
18:41
Speaker 3: Captain Bidder says wake Forest demon dieks the annual six
18:44
Speaker 3: point five?
18:46
Speaker 4: Now is that there wins? Hem might be talking win total.
18:48
Speaker 3: We're talking hopa meter, all right, we're talking one out
18:50
Speaker 3: of ten on the hope of media. Oh that's not
18:52
Speaker 3: the annual. They were better than that. Well, yeah, but
18:54
Speaker 3: I think he's talking going into the season. I think
18:57
Speaker 3: he's talking about Yeah, they won nine football games last year.
18:59
Speaker 3: On the biggest surprises in the country. I would say
19:02
Speaker 3: I think they'd be hard. I think they'd be be
19:06
Speaker 3: a hard test to repeat. But I know this, people
19:10
Speaker 3: are hating on Go Lopez. Certainly tar Heel fans are
19:12
Speaker 3: hating on Go Lopez last year. I mean his quarterback situation,
19:16
Speaker 3: Robbie Ashford going into season as his number one, a
19:19
Speaker 3: guy who just looked like he had no arm bone
19:23
Speaker 3: when he was at Auburn and look what they were
19:25
Speaker 3: able to do. So is Jake Dicker the guy you're
19:28
Speaker 3: pumping up Manny Diaz is don't ask to underestimating him?
19:31
Speaker 3: Is Jake Dicker the guy that maybe we shouldn't underestimate either? Again,
19:34
Speaker 3: I'm saying, can they get to a bowl?
19:36
Speaker 4: You know? I think there. I think they end up
19:38
Speaker 4: being a bowl team at least. Yeah, They've got a
19:42
Speaker 4: accurate in Purdue to start the year. Then it's my well,
19:45
Speaker 4: they have a tough stretch here though, Mack. It's it's Miami, Louisville, State,
19:52
Speaker 4: and Cal. Four out of five games that it's at Louisville,
19:55
Speaker 4: at State at CAW. That's gonna be a little tough
19:57
Speaker 4: stretch there for them. When we come back on the
20:00
Speaker 4: Mac and bo Joe, some of the Panthers are playing
20:03
Speaker 4: football tonight. What or who is worth looking out for
20:07
Speaker 4: in the Hall of Fame Game and we have a
20:10
Speaker 4: Panther and Cardinals videos that have gone viral Sports Radio
20:13
Speaker 4: seven WFNZ.
20:39
Speaker 5: I would imagine I wasn't with him for the last
20:42
Speaker 5: couple of years, but I would imagine being on several
20:44
Speaker 5: different teams working with several varieties of the depth chart
20:48
Speaker 5: of wide receivers, tight ends, etc. That he's got experience
20:52
Speaker 5: trying to figure guys out pretty quickly, different body types,
20:55
Speaker 5: different speed, different profiles, and so that's shown up, you know.
20:59
Speaker 5: And he's he's able to and very comfortable playing with
21:02
Speaker 5: anybody and making sure that they understand what we're trying
21:04
Speaker 5: to get done.
21:06
Speaker 4: There you go.
21:07
Speaker 3: That is Dave Kanal is talking about his Super Bowl
21:11
Speaker 3: champion starting quarterback tonight, Kenny Pickett, Ladies and gentlemen, and
21:16
Speaker 3: shout out to eevery. I forget the name of the
21:18
Speaker 3: Texter who pointed out that we are starting a Super
21:20
Speaker 3: Bowl chant because I have worn that out bone you
21:22
Speaker 3: have since he told me.
21:23
Speaker 4: I like you though, to wear out a piece of information,
21:27
Speaker 4: you would never do something such.
21:30
Speaker 3: Is that still because wolf Pack Mack or he still
21:32
Speaker 3: mad at wolf Pack Mac?
21:33
Speaker 4: Is that why you probably I don't remember the last second. Okay,
21:35
Speaker 4: you've moved on.
21:37
Speaker 3: Uh anyway, Mac and Bone show with you would be
21:40
Speaker 3: on the same page. Now, Baby, we are to pay
21:42
Speaker 3: it on the page of two Panther fans excited to
21:45
Speaker 3: watch our first stringers walk around and jumpsuits and our
21:49
Speaker 3: third and four stringers dominate the day to night. It
21:51
Speaker 3: is Kenny Pickett starting. I know Joe person for one,
21:54
Speaker 3: has kind of said his his fee the vibe. He's
21:56
Speaker 3: getting his one or two series for Picket. And then
21:58
Speaker 3: it's Haines King get that arm loose and get the legs.
22:01
Speaker 4: Ready to run. Baby, there would be a lot of you.
22:03
Speaker 3: Carson Beck starts for Arizona and Keaton Slovis is the backup.
22:08
Speaker 3: They're sitting their first two guys out. Jacoby were to
22:11
Speaker 3: tell which ones are their first two guys, I said,
22:14
Speaker 3: I told both Jacobycent and Gardner. Minshew, you pointed out
22:18
Speaker 3: how amusing that is that they they are the first
22:21
Speaker 3: and second stringers.
22:22
Speaker 4: You know you've got a quarterback problem if those are
22:25
Speaker 4: the guys sitting out the preseason game. Gotta protect those
22:28
Speaker 4: two gentlemen. Man, Mac, do you know what you're concerned
22:30
Speaker 4: about Haines King tonight running for his wife and why
22:33
Speaker 4: he may set a preseason record for yardage and running.
22:36
Speaker 4: I'm gonna guess that Stone Forsyth will be in this game, Like.
22:39
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's probably starting right, Like, you gotta figure our
22:41
Speaker 3: depth on the offensive line at tackle with the tackle injuries.
22:45
Speaker 3: We that's got it. I think that's a valid point.
22:47
Speaker 3: That's take the over. What's although the over Haines King
22:50
Speaker 3: yards might be in the fifties, I'm not sure.
22:52
Speaker 4: I don't know. I think that's what valid point. What's is? Uh?
22:56
Speaker 4: Is uh carry total boat for that? You're another good
23:00
Speaker 4: one if you're into betting on the preseason.
23:02
Speaker 3: We're two hours removed bone from me saying you are
23:05
Speaker 3: a degenerate if you bet on preseason football. And now
23:07
Speaker 3: I'm trying to figure out what the best bets are.
23:09
Speaker 3: I'm now thinking of how I can use my seven
23:12
Speaker 3: cents on the night's game. All right, First, but before
23:15
Speaker 3: we get before we get to the discussion of like
23:19
Speaker 3: what or who matters to you tonight, Like I think
23:21
Speaker 3: the first thing that matters is it's football, and it's
23:24
Speaker 3: the Panthers and we're defending a division title and it's
23:28
Speaker 3: just and we've got Luke's big weekend. Like I just
23:30
Speaker 3: think I think we're just excited in general about those things.
23:32
Speaker 3: But when it comes to the game, with so many
23:35
Speaker 3: guys sitting, I asked the question, Panther fans, what or
23:38
Speaker 3: who is worth watching tonight closely seven oh four, five,
23:42
Speaker 3: seven oh nine, six ten. I want to mention, though,
23:44
Speaker 3: we we've gotten a bunch of our salutes to Luke Keighley,
23:49
Speaker 3: our messages of love for one for Luke one mistakenly
23:54
Speaker 3: to Ajclin, but we need more, all right. We're trying
23:57
Speaker 3: to put a good montage together of WFNZ fans, Panther
24:02
Speaker 3: fans listen to the station saluting Luke Keikley. So the
24:05
Speaker 3: way you do it is you go to the wfn
24:07
Speaker 3: Z app, you know, download it if you have to.
24:09
Speaker 3: If you already got it, click on it. At the
24:11
Speaker 3: bottom of that homepage. On the app, you'll see a
24:14
Speaker 3: microphone that will allow you to hit record and record
24:17
Speaker 3: a message. You only got thirty seconds, but give us
24:21
Speaker 3: your best, you know, salute to Luke, what you love
24:24
Speaker 3: about them, your memories. I don't know, maybe twenty four
24:26
Speaker 3: tackles kids New Orleans, something like that. You want to
24:29
Speaker 3: just scream, scream the Luke chant, whatever it is. We're
24:33
Speaker 3: looking to put this together. We're also looking to send
24:35
Speaker 3: it Luke's way and let him hear the love as well,
24:38
Speaker 3: and there will be one winner. We'll do a drawing
24:41
Speaker 3: of everybody that leaves the Luke Salutes and there'll be
24:45
Speaker 3: one winner that will get a pair of tickets to
24:48
Speaker 3: the Houston preseason game. So we'll play. We'll play these tomorrow.
24:51
Speaker 3: But that's why we need y'all to do it today.
24:53
Speaker 3: So wfin z app leave your message and then it'll
24:56
Speaker 3: give you a chance to kind of put your information
24:58
Speaker 3: in there.
25:00
Speaker 4: We ask you Bone.
25:00
Speaker 3: Obviously, everybody knows what we're watching for on Saturday. On Saturday,
25:03
Speaker 3: we can't wait to see Luke and to hear his speech.
25:06
Speaker 3: What do you think Bone about tonight? Like, what what
25:10
Speaker 3: do you feel like or who do you feel like?
25:12
Speaker 3: Condor matters tonight in this game?
25:14
Speaker 4: I think it's the wide receivers aren't going to play tonight.
25:16
Speaker 4: No XL, Right, yeah, no XL. And we already think
25:20
Speaker 4: that Tremaine's gonna make the team. But I'm talking about
25:23
Speaker 4: Jimmy Horn Junior, jessem Reid, and John Metchi because those
25:28
Speaker 4: guys will play tonight and we feel like, are they
25:31
Speaker 4: all vying mac for that that last spot within the
25:35
Speaker 4: wide receiver room depending on the amount that they that
25:38
Speaker 4: they carry. I think that would be very interesting tonight
25:41
Speaker 4: to see who plays the best out of those three guys.
25:45
Speaker 4: And it wouldn't surprise me. Jessem Reid's got a real
25:49
Speaker 4: chance tonight, I think to do something.
25:50
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I think he would be like the first
25:52
Speaker 3: guy I would put on on a list. I think
25:55
Speaker 3: your talk about that position and the guys that are
25:58
Speaker 3: vying for the last spot or two wide receiver are
26:01
Speaker 3: gonna be fun to watch. But you seem read in particular.
26:04
Speaker 3: I'm telling y'all he was on the practice squad last year.
26:06
Speaker 3: He went to San Diego in the Pioneer League, lit
26:09
Speaker 3: it up and was undrafted, was picked up by Cleveland.
26:13
Speaker 3: They let him go and he was on the practice
26:14
Speaker 3: squad the whole year last year. And I heard Joe
26:16
Speaker 3: Person talking about this. The word is he like he
26:21
Speaker 3: held his own like he made it tough on JC
26:22
Speaker 3: and Mike Jack last year in practice.
26:25
Speaker 4: He is doing a great.
26:26
Speaker 3: Job in practice, coming down with everything. He's one of
26:28
Speaker 3: the top guys. I think an easy answer to bone
26:32
Speaker 3: is the quarterbacks and maybe more Haines King like Picket,
26:35
Speaker 3: It's gonna be quick, he's gonna be playing with guys
26:38
Speaker 3: you know that you know are I don't know, maybe
26:41
Speaker 3: third string, but Haines King. I'm very interested in this
26:45
Speaker 3: dude because they did want you know, Canalis has spoke
26:49
Speaker 3: of and Dan Morgan spoke of wanting that young quarterback
26:52
Speaker 3: that can try to develop, that can move and that
26:55
Speaker 3: can run, and that's what he is. I think we
26:58
Speaker 3: start watching him bone and seeing do we have a
27:01
Speaker 3: QB that is worth using a third QB roster spot.
27:05
Speaker 4: I don't I know.
27:05
Speaker 3: Sheena Quick was saying that he's passed, he's thrown the
27:09
Speaker 3: ball better and picking, and she thinks he could win the.
27:11
Speaker 4: Two job at some point.
27:12
Speaker 3: I don't know if I'm going that far, but just
27:14
Speaker 3: could we use the third spot on him because we
27:17
Speaker 3: don't want to expose him to other teams on the
27:18
Speaker 3: practice sque I want to see.
27:20
Speaker 4: We know the stuff with Haynes. We watch enough of
27:23
Speaker 4: him to know what he does well. Right, it's the
27:25
Speaker 4: it's the toughness, it's the running, It's that it's that
27:28
Speaker 4: Baker Mayfield mindset that you're not knocking that dude out
27:31
Speaker 4: of the football game. We know what made him work
27:33
Speaker 4: and really elevating that Georgia Tech program to a higher standard.
27:38
Speaker 4: But it's gonna be about how's he look throwing the football,
27:40
Speaker 4: Because if he can mac figure out a way to
27:43
Speaker 4: be a more accurate passer, that's the kil go with
27:45
Speaker 4: everything else he has, then there's no doubt down the
27:48
Speaker 4: line he I think he would be a very good
27:51
Speaker 4: backup quarterback. And I give you one more guy mack
27:54
Speaker 4: whose name we mentioned a lot, but I think we're
27:56
Speaker 4: gonna see him a lot tonight, and that's Aaron Hall,
28:00
Speaker 4: the defensive end out of Duke. Definitely, definitely is gonna
28:03
Speaker 4: play a lot tonight.
28:04
Speaker 3: Yes, and he's got a chance right with Lebrian Ray retiring,
28:08
Speaker 3: with Wharton hurt. Aaron Hall is a guy that when
28:12
Speaker 3: we I tried not to do the thing I do usually,
28:15
Speaker 3: which is overreact bone to undrafted free agent signings by
28:19
Speaker 3: the Panthers. I've got a long history of acting like
28:22
Speaker 3: guys are going to be Hall of Famers when they're undrafted.
28:25
Speaker 3: But you throw in Dan Morgan having success with undrafted
28:29
Speaker 3: guys recently, and Aaron Hall is a guy that made
28:31
Speaker 3: plays at Duke Now there's an opportunity. He's got a
28:34
Speaker 3: legit chance to make that Rocks guy. I think that's
28:37
Speaker 3: a good one. Guy on defense, the Key Wheatley is
28:39
Speaker 3: another guy that I'm interested in.
28:40
Speaker 4: That's a good that's just trying to figure out guys
28:42
Speaker 4: that we're gonna see tonight.
28:43
Speaker 3: That's a that's a good one say. I mean, I
28:45
Speaker 3: want to see Sam Heckt at center. Hopefully no one
28:48
Speaker 3: does a Cam Jackson to him because that was a
28:49
Speaker 3: rough moment for him in camp the other day. But
28:51
Speaker 3: Sam hex' a guy I think can be our center
28:53
Speaker 3: of the future. Will lead as will Lee playing. There's
28:56
Speaker 3: also I'm also trying to figure out who plays and
28:58
Speaker 3: who doesn't.
29:00
Speaker 4: Like does Mitchell Evans play tonight or not? Because Sanders
29:05
Speaker 4: is her.
29:05
Speaker 3: Kremble's not playing Sanders. Dave wants to play, he said,
29:09
Speaker 3: but doesn't know if he can play because of the
29:11
Speaker 3: ankle injury. Mitchell Evans probably plays, then, don't you think they?
29:15
Speaker 4: But do they view him as a guy that I
29:17
Speaker 4: don't know. It's hard to know who's going to flee
29:20
Speaker 4: Bay Franks and Flip Bay Franks and Kayden uh Uh
29:26
Speaker 4: Preestcorn are the other tight ends on the Ross. Yeah,
29:28
Speaker 4: and James Mitchell he's there too. Oh, James Mitchell too,
29:32
Speaker 4: So maybe they don't have to play Mitch tonight. I
29:36
Speaker 4: what do you think about corners? Like do they play
29:38
Speaker 4: Corey Thornton and Will Lee. I'd love to watch both
29:41
Speaker 4: those guys play football tonight, But like, I'm not sure,
29:44
Speaker 4: whick where's the jumpsuit cut off? Like Princely told us
29:47
Speaker 4: he's looking forward to being a jumpsuit. That made me
29:49
Speaker 4: wonder bone, like, how far does that jumpsuit, you know,
29:54
Speaker 4: list go?
29:55
Speaker 3: But I would like to watch Thornton and Lee, but
29:57
Speaker 3: I don't they might not make the cut.
30:00
Speaker 4: We're going to see Isaiah Simmons that some safety tonight.
30:02
Speaker 4: I guess, yeah, that would be interesting. He's on the
30:04
Speaker 4: third line. That's strong safety.
30:05
Speaker 3: He probably gets to play position football because I think
30:08
Speaker 3: during the season he's pretty much primarily special teams and
30:11
Speaker 3: he's he's freaking great at as you saw in the
30:13
Speaker 3: playoff game.
30:14
Speaker 4: That's special teams Union. By the way, Simmons in Felipe
30:16
Speaker 4: Franks in there. That is some do I know? I

Speaker 3: in me right there, baby. This dude says, I'm a
30:42
Speaker 3: Panther fan. I'm a Panther fan. But do you have
30:44
Speaker 3: a problem with me saying I will watch eight minutes
30:47
Speaker 3: and then turn on something else? Not a football guy.
30:49
Speaker 3: Then that's what Fitty called out. Panther fans just texted
30:53
Speaker 3: that you're not a football not a football guy.
30:57
Speaker 4: Football guys hang for the entire game tonight. If you're
31:00
Speaker 4: Panther fan, don't you have to hang? Have to?
31:03
Speaker 3: Or or are we doing? Not get mad at him?
31:05
Speaker 3: They don't watch the four stringers.
31:06
Speaker 4: If you're not watching Apollo mowatsa later on the night,
31:11
Speaker 4: that I don't want to talk to you, take your
31:12
Speaker 4: Panther card.
31:12
Speaker 3: We're gonna, actually that's what we're gonna do tomorrow, bow
31:14
Speaker 3: and we're gonna send some agents out door to door
31:18
Speaker 3: to collect We're gonna go and find out how much
31:20
Speaker 3: you watch the game. We're gonna collect Panther cards. All right,
31:22
Speaker 3: If you weren't there late in the Fortuna.
31:24
Speaker 4: I have a question about Mowatsa by the way, the
31:26
Speaker 4: uh four string windbacker.
31:29
Speaker 3: Clearly, I know I'm a big big fans. I know
31:32
Speaker 3: that they have to give out a lot of numbers
31:33
Speaker 3: in camp. Do we have to give him Thomas Davis's number?
31:36
Speaker 4: Can we not?
31:37
Speaker 1: Uh?
31:37
Speaker 4: Can we not spare that one here? During camp? It's
31:39
Speaker 4: guy's number fifty eight? It really really kind of bothers
31:42
Speaker 4: me a little bit.
31:43
Speaker 3: Do you think though they give the big numbers, the
31:45
Speaker 3: important numbers like that the guys they know aren't making
31:47
Speaker 3: the team, so they know that he's just borring this
31:49
Speaker 3: number for for like four weeks, three weeks, and then
31:52
Speaker 3: he's gonna give it back. Oh my gosh, just Cam.
31:56
Speaker 3: Someone brot up a good question. Is Cam Jackson play tonight?
31:58
Speaker 3: I'd love to watch Cam Jackson Lee Hunter?
32:00
Speaker 4: I don't think I don't think so. Do they?
32:02
Speaker 3: Just does Lee Hunter play tonight? We know freelings not.
32:06
Speaker 3: But like some of these other rookies that are going
32:08
Speaker 3: to get playing time, where's the where's the jumpsuit cutoffs?
32:12
Speaker 4: Cam Jackson was number one on the depth chart that
32:14
Speaker 4: it's not supposed to matter.
32:15
Speaker 3: Yeah, so he probably. Yeah, he probably doesn't play right
32:17
Speaker 3: one hunter of my play just because he's a rookie
32:19
Speaker 3: and get his feet way. I mean Canallis did say
32:21
Speaker 3: some guys that are battling for starting spots, So I
32:23
Speaker 3: don't know.
32:24
Speaker 4: It's going to be interesting to see. We're going to
32:25
Speaker 4: see a lot of claud and cherl wists and bad
32:27
Speaker 4: more in Scott tonight, though, aren't we. I would think
32:29
Speaker 4: they're going to be yes.
32:30
Speaker 3: I would think they are definitely going to Unfortunately, we
32:32
Speaker 3: saw a lot of them last year.
32:33
Speaker 4: Dude injuries.
32:35
Speaker 6: Here's an interesting one, ice cream sandwich rights in Do
32:37
Speaker 6: they have a backup long snapper?
32:39
Speaker 4: Does j J Janssen get a.
32:41
Speaker 3: This is a regular game for JJJJ Yeah, I feel
32:43
Speaker 3: like JJ gets no reprieve does he doesn't he snap
32:46
Speaker 3: every snap even in preseason.
32:47
Speaker 4: Guys, all the specialists are there's no backup. There's no
32:51
Speaker 4: battle for those guys right now. They're all in trench,
32:54
Speaker 4: so they're all playing to night.
32:55
Speaker 6: I trying to feel bad because I'm getting a vet
32:57
Speaker 6: day for tonight's count on the kickoff show, like I'm
33:00
Speaker 6: not running the broadcast. Smokes fooling it for me and
33:03
Speaker 6: j J can even get a bet day to play
33:05
Speaker 6: the Hall of Fame.
33:05
Speaker 4: What are you busy with tonight? Which guy going on?
33:08

33:18
Speaker 3: pregame show from six to eight tonight, so tune in.
33:24
Speaker 3: We're getting ready for Panther football. This dude says of
33:27
Speaker 3: Mike says that Haines King we better than Malik Willis.
33:29
Speaker 3: I don't know about this version of Malik Willis. That
33:31
Speaker 3: feels starting in the league right now. That feels yeah,
33:35
Speaker 3: we'll see. I'm not as I was bullish on him
33:38
Speaker 3: when he was drafted. I'm not as bullish now as
33:41
Speaker 3: some people are over like a three game sample at
33:44
Speaker 3: the end of last year. But I agree with you
33:46
Speaker 3: saying that Haines King, like you're basically saying Haines King
33:49
Speaker 3: at some point will be good enough to get that
33:51
Speaker 3: contract that.
33:51
Speaker 4: Willis just got with Miami. I don't know.
33:53
Speaker 3: I don't know if I want to call that out,
33:54
Speaker 3: but like, do I want to see is he Bryce's
33:57
Speaker 3: backup material, because it would be nice and I'm sure
34:00
Speaker 3: that's what Dan Morgan was thinking why he wanted a
34:02
Speaker 3: mobile young guy. It would be nice to have a
34:05
Speaker 3: mobile guy eventually as Bryce's backup. I know Picket's not
34:08
Speaker 3: a statue, but it would be nice to be able
34:11
Speaker 3: to do some of the improv stuff Bryce does me.
34:13
Speaker 4: I want some of these I want some of these
34:14
Speaker 4: football guys to let us know text to text in
34:18
Speaker 4: the night that you're so awake when this game ends,
34:20
Speaker 4: will come in the morning. We want them to report

37:59
Speaker 4: take advantage of the next game. Is Bojangles our South Beach?

39:16
Speaker 4: see this, and I would consider these guys friends and
39:20
Speaker 4: football guys a few minutes ago. But we found out
39:24
Speaker 4: today Picante not watching the game tonight, gas House Earl

39:44
Speaker 3: watch the game. Another Texter says, it's preseason football. Calm down,
39:49
Speaker 3: it's pretend football. Gas House where we separate the men
39:53
Speaker 3: from the boys. Tonight gas House Earl says, you can
39:56
Speaker 3: call it what you want, but I'm fifty four freaking
39:59
Speaker 3: years old. I get up at four am every morning,

40:46
Speaker 3: got a controversy there.
40:47
Speaker 4: Uh.
40:48
Speaker 3: People are split on whether or not you are a
40:51
Speaker 3: real diehard Panther fan if you don't watch tonight. This
40:54
Speaker 3: texter says, there is no way Fitty watches the entire
40:58
Speaker 3: game tonight. He'll probably be watching old cow Boy highlights
41:01
Speaker 3: or some Western TV series.
41:05
Speaker 4: But in the fourth quarter, respond, how dare they doubt you,
41:09
Speaker 4: Panther Fitty?
41:10
Speaker 6: Yeah, I'll take a line from Flounder that that texture
41:14
Speaker 6: could kiss me where I branch.
41:16
Speaker 3: He went flound branch, he went flound He gave him
41:19
Speaker 3: the full flound tar heel Udi was fired up earlier.

Speaker 4: talking about the game Cocks and what's the guy's name again,
41:38
Speaker 4: tar Heel?
41:39
Speaker 3: You never mentioned his own football tea ever, not a
41:42
Speaker 3: single time. I think I know why. I have a
41:44
Speaker 3: suspicion why that might be the case. Was it Odie
41:47
Speaker 3: the Garfield's buddy, the dog Garfield. I don't know what
41:54
Speaker 3: the name of that dog was it Odie Odie? Okay, yeah,
41:58
Speaker 3: my Garfield knowledge is not good, real Nah, I did
42:02
Speaker 3: that and I didn't feel it.
42:03
Speaker 4: Man didn't feel it? Now now excoose me kind of garn.
42:09
Speaker 3: Don't like Lasagna, Tommy and King's Mountain says he's a
42:12
Speaker 3: panther guy. He bet forty dollars on Bryce to win

42:18
Speaker 3: I'm not sure you're winning that bet, but I appreciate that.
42:21
Speaker 3: Uh this, Oh I asked earlier, what would be good
42:25
Speaker 3: detective names for Fiddy and Bone when they go investigate
42:28
Speaker 3: that dude that's taken that posting the camera footage, camera
42:32
Speaker 3: phone footage of panther practices, Crockett and tubs.
42:36
Speaker 4: That's still old though I don't have any new one.
42:38

42:41
Speaker 3: bomb in the in the eighties, no doubt about it.
42:44
Speaker 4: Still on to be. You can watch whenever you watch them, Okay, okay,
42:46

42:48
Speaker 4: afternoon and you're hanging out with your new puppy. Maybe

Speaker 4: you watch a few episodes every once in a while.
42:52
Speaker 3: People cleaned up a mass bone I made back in
42:55
Speaker 3: Asle two in hour two of the show. So we
42:58
Speaker 3: got to go back to Aysle too. Mess has been
43:01
Speaker 3: there for two hours. People been stepping in this thing.
43:03
Speaker 3: We got to clean it up. I told the story

Speaker 3: hear that seven forty five. You can hear all this
43:09
Speaker 3: panther talk on the podcast WFNZ dot com or wherever
43:13
Speaker 3: you get your podcasts. But I told the story about
43:15
Speaker 3: the guy who finished last place in his fantasy league
43:18
Speaker 3: and had to go to a golf course and play
43:20
Speaker 3: around the golf without a ball. Literally like, hit your
43:23
Speaker 3: t shot, there's no ball there. Fake ball's in the
43:25
Speaker 3: fairway you swing, You get that. But I did not
43:28
Speaker 3: tell the even better parts of the story. He had
43:31
Speaker 3: to get in a group with strangers and was not
43:35
Speaker 3: allowed to tell them why he was doing this. So
43:38
Speaker 3: they're playing real golf and this dude steps up and
43:41
Speaker 3: is playing fake golf for eighteen full holes and these
43:44
Speaker 3: people have to think he is a lunatic. Oh yeah,
43:46
Speaker 3: that makes it even so. I screwed it up. I
43:48
Speaker 3: didn't even give you the best part of the story.
43:51
Speaker 3: A lot of State fans texting in bringing up Cozel McQueen,
43:55
Speaker 3: who was the center on NC State's national title win
44:00
Speaker 3: Cardiac Cats in nineteen eighty three. Stiffler points out he
