Mac & Bone Hour 2: Belichick's UNC Future & Panthers NFC South Outlook · Mac & Bone Podcast

• 0:15
  Speaker 1: I know some people who would want the job right now,
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: who would probably be on the short list. It's still
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: a desirable position. In fact, it's probably going to be
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: looked at as a position that is really desirable for
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: the first time in a long time, because you flushed
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: some of Slash, a lot of what needed to be
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: flushed out of the athletic department out. I don't mean
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: Bubba Cunningham. I mean the entire mess that prevented him
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: from doing his job effectively. And I think also this
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: was the medicine that was needed. A lot of people
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: needed to have their eyelids staple to the top of
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: their forehead and forced to watch this play out. This
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: is your freak show. Okay, we did it your way
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: and this is what we got. Now we're going to
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: do it the right way and watch what happens. North
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: Carolina can still be a winner. North Carolina is one
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: of I've said it for a long time, and I
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: know it gets old. I've said it about A and
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: M for a long time, and I still believe it.
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: You can win a national championship at this place. It
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: just takes alignment. It's as easy and as complicated as that.
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: It just takes alignment.
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: There you go.
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: I feel like that's uplifting because I do feel bad
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: Bone for Tar Heel fans. I see the look on
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: Fitty's face during these football conversations. I know he's had
• 1:31
  Speaker 3: too many Sloppy Joe's. I more on Sloppy Joe's later
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: on Today's Ship. And I know you feel bad for
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: Tar Heel fans, especially complainter in chiefly.
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: I can't line. I can't sleep at night right now.
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: But this is uplifting right here, That comment from Josh
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: Pate is uplifting, saying, hey, they can win a national
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: time now. I'm sure that's going to be debated. I'm
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: sure you know UNC haters go all right, but here
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: they're just sleeping give for years and all that. But
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: like there's a point there. First of all, he said,
• 2:01
  Speaker 3: I have talked to people in coaching that would love
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: to have that job. His point is that is still
• 2:08
  Speaker 3: going to be a coveted job. The crazy tabloid mess
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: that's going on with Bill and Jordan and Lombardi is
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: not changing that people will still want that job. So
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: to me, Bone, you listen to that right there, that
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: maybe that could get Heels fan through the next handful
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: of months here is that if they do move on.
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: And by the way, I believe what you just heard there,
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: and some Tar Heel fans seem to agree with this,
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: some don't. I think it adds fuel to the fire
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: of what Roy Philpott from ESPN said yesterday. I asked him, like,
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: do you think Heels fans should be rooting for losses
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: just so it leads to a move moving on from
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: this administration? And he said absolutely. And I think if
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: you listen to what Josh Pate said there, if you
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: can move on from this administration now, some Heels fans
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: like Complainer and Chief on the text line want to
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: dig in. And he's still saying Bill Belichick's the goat.
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: But I honestly believe and y'all could tell us Tarheel fans,
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: Fitty and everybody listening and still last forever, like do
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: you like, do you feel does anybody want to dig
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: in like in player and Chief does it on text
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: line and say he's a great coach, just give him
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: time or do you feel like you'd be better off
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: just taking another rough season and cutting your losses? And then,
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: as Josh Pate says, having a demand for this job, Like,
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: I just does it make sense to you bone that
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: tarheel fans would be rooting for losses or are you
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: the type of fan where you just you don't do that?
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: Like what do you think I don't.
• 3:37
  Speaker 4: I don't do that, But in this particular case, I
• 3:40
  Speaker 4: think that you may want to, because if this was
• 3:43
  Speaker 4: just football embarrassing and they were just a bad product
• 3:47
  Speaker 4: and they couldn't figure out how to win games, I'd say, well,
• 3:50
  Speaker 4: you know, give it a little more time. Is Belichick,
• 3:53
  Speaker 4: let him figure it out. But this is also a
• 3:56
  Speaker 4: not the same Belichick that was in the pros and B.
• 3:59
  Speaker 4: This goes beyond football embarrassing. This goes into all the
• 4:03
  Speaker 4: stuff off the field. It goes into the hiring of Lombardi.
• 4:07
  Speaker 4: Belichick seemingly almost distracted in some ways from coaching by
• 4:11
  Speaker 4: Jordan Hudson.
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: I don't even know if he can. I don't even
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: know if he cares.
• 4:14
  Speaker 4: If it was football only, I'd say, hey, relax, when
• 4:17
  Speaker 4: them work this thing out. It's been early on in
• 4:19
  Speaker 4: his tenure. But there's so much other stuff that goes
• 4:22
  Speaker 4: with it. It's football embarrassing, and it's off the field,
• 4:26
  Speaker 4: and when you have combos like that. That's when the
• 4:28
  Speaker 4: fans say, can we just move on and get back
• 4:30
  Speaker 4: to being football embarrassing?
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: Famly?
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: I agree, Spoiled Sportsman is defending. He is defending, he
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: is standing up, and that's what I'm curious. You know
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: what approach y'all will take. Spoiled Sportsman says, it's been
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: one year, and it has And that's the thing is,
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: I normally would not be feeling this way about one
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: year coaching tenure, but it has been such a bleep show.
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: He has hired a horrendous general manager just because they
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: have a personal relationship.
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: I mean, the dude.
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: I was listening Pablo Tory talking about this yesterday. Bill
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: Belichick bought Lombardi a Super Bowl ring when the Patriots
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: won one of their rings. Lombardi got fired bone in
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: the before the season in July, but Bill Belichick wanted
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: him have a ring for that season, so he bought. Like,
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: I don't know what the attachment is. I don't know
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: what like evidence Lombardy has, what photos he has, what
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: videos he has on Bill Belichick, But like Bill Belichick
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: is so loyal to them. He made to him and
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: it doesn't make any sense. To me, did he go
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: to k Jewelers and make the order? I need to
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: know more about it. I need a ring for he
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: got fired and thank you? Kay I just and then Bill,
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: I don't know if he cares. Is he just there
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: to collect thirty million dollars guaranteed money over three years
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: in the first three years of a five year deal.
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: And then this pivot to somebody on the text line
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: and listen. I like the fact that some tar Heel
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: fans are not just piling on that, they're trying to
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: push back like it.
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: Gives us a legit discussion.
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: Seven four number says they had a very good high
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: school recruiting class, and clearly they want to focus on
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: one growing with youth right now and not the portal.
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: But here's the thing in this era bone for you know,
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: Kurt Signetti and many others have proven you help. Jake
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: Dicker won nine games last year in his first year
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: in this portal era. You don't need to wait forever,
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: you know what I mean. You don't need to bring
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: in forty high school recruits and how many of those
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: will still be there when they're juniors. Like I just,
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: I don't think they're going about it the right way.
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: I was listening, Bruce Feldman said during that episode with
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: Pablo I was listening to yesterday. Bruce Feldman said he
• 6:37
  Speaker 3: knows a dad of a recruit that just went on
• 6:40
  Speaker 3: a visit recently with Belichick and you U n C.
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: The kid told his dad that they had such an
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: attitude about them that they made me feel like I
• 6:50
  Speaker 3: was lucky to be on a visit with them. And
• 6:52
  Speaker 3: it's just that's the kind of stuff you hear about
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: their arrogance. I just this is these are the reasons why,
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: to Bone's point, that I have turned on them. Bill Belichick,
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: I don't even recognize him anymore. He lets a twenty
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: four year old girl take over and control many aspects
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: of his life. The Bill Belichick I know, would not
• 7:09
  Speaker 3: let anybody control his life, wouldn't even let Robert Kraft
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: control him. So I just I don't recognize him. It's
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: he's seventy three years old, Bone, and they want to
• 7:18
  Speaker 3: build through high school recruiting.
• 7:21
  Speaker 4: Which initially I don't get it. It was initially it
• 7:23
  Speaker 4: was going to be all about the money in the portal.
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: It was the portal, and by the way, the portal
• 7:27
  Speaker 3: players they got last year.
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: Much like They're weren't a lesson.
• 7:30
  Speaker 4: Much like Michael Jordan, Mack warned as the owner here
• 7:34
  Speaker 4: that your name only goes so far with young people.
• 7:37
  Speaker 4: Remember when we thought, oh, i'mj all these players are
• 7:40
  Speaker 4: going to be attracted to Michael Jordan. They're all going
• 7:41
  Speaker 4: to sign here. MJ's name is on this franchise. Well
• 7:44
  Speaker 4: guess what never materialized?
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: Did it? They didn't care.
• 7:47
  Speaker 4: There were other places. It was a good point where
• 7:49
  Speaker 4: their buddies were going. They where everyone else was going.
• 7:51
  Speaker 4: The name Belichick to college kids in twenty twenty six
• 7:55
  Speaker 4: is not going as far as they thought it was gonna.
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you're right, you're a Felman talked about that last
• 7:59
  Speaker 3: night too, and watch in that podcast, and it's it's obvious.
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: They thought.
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: They thought that they people would be running in droves,
• 8:06
  Speaker 3: tripping over each other to get to that.
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: They're not.
• 8:08
  Speaker 4: The young people are not seeing rings, they're not seeing
• 8:11
  Speaker 4: the masterful jobs that he did coaching wise, they're seeing
• 8:15
  Speaker 4: right now, nothing but embarrassing stories.
• 8:17
  Speaker 3: It's a completely different game though, Like complainer in chief
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: keeps calling him the goat, and it's like, yeah, at
• 8:22
  Speaker 3: NFL coaching, it's a completely different game, and they came
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: in and thought that they could just They completely disrespected
• 8:30
  Speaker 3: the college coaching community. I mean they thought it would
• 8:32
  Speaker 3: be so easy. I mean the thirty third team comment
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: could go down as one of the most embarrassing comments
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: in the history of sports. And that's saying something that
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: includes my takes.
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: You know what I mean.
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: That's bad. Oh my god. Complainer in chief now concedes
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: Bone that they should fire Lombardi, so at least has
• 8:49
  Speaker 3: given in there. Submitted from the city says, you guys
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: act like this is surprising. A lot of us told
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: you Bill would not get along well with college kids.
• 8:58
  Speaker 3: Bone and I were not very big on this higher
• 9:01
  Speaker 3: I said, I think he don't have to adapt himself,
• 9:03
  Speaker 3: but he has it. I didn't like to hire, but
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: this level of dysfunction. Though nobody saw this coming. You know,
• 9:13
  Speaker 3: I did not think we would get here. I didn't
• 9:15
  Speaker 3: think it would be bad enough to affect his all
• 9:18
  Speaker 3: time coaching legacy. And I've always been on the side Mac.
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: We can argue this all we want to.
• 9:22
  Speaker 4: I've always been on the side of it was Belichick's
• 9:26
  Speaker 4: coaching genius that made the Patriots what they were with
• 9:30
  Speaker 4: Tom Brady, but now I look at it as the
• 9:32
  Speaker 4: end of the Patriots run. The way it's gone here,
• 9:35
  Speaker 4: the way it went before Brady got there. I'm now
• 9:39
  Speaker 4: leaning towards it was more on Brady being the all
• 9:42
  Speaker 4: time winner, the best ever, holding that thing together and
• 9:46
  Speaker 4: one of the great what ifs back of all time?
• 9:48
  Speaker 4: Now is this if Moe Lewis doesn't hit Drew Bledsoe
• 9:53
  Speaker 4: the way he did in two thousand and one, and
• 9:55
  Speaker 4: Tom Brady doesn't get in there when he got in there,
• 9:57
  Speaker 4: or maybe he goes somewhere else. I don't know how
• 9:59
  Speaker 4: it he's out, But what is the career like for
• 10:02
  Speaker 4: Bill Belichick if he asked to ride out Drew bled
• 10:05
  Speaker 4: so longer? Because it was not starting that well in
• 10:07
  Speaker 4: the wingland either for him. So I'm starting to side
• 10:10
  Speaker 4: now with man, this can have an effect on his
• 10:12
  Speaker 4: all time legacy.
• 10:13
  Speaker 3: Well, okay, So that's an interesting conversation that we have
• 10:15
  Speaker 3: not had, at least in a while. We might have
• 10:19
  Speaker 3: had it last year, but we haven't had it in
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: a while. Is do y'all think that Bill Belichick? I
• 10:25
  Speaker 3: saw it on a text yesterday. He's tarnishing his legacy?
• 10:29
  Speaker 3: Do you believe that, first of all, Bone, Tom Brady
• 10:32
  Speaker 3: won the breakup when he went to Tampa won a
• 10:35
  Speaker 3: Super Bowl, and Bill Belichick's struggle at the end of
• 10:37
  Speaker 3: his career, Like I believe right then and there it
• 10:39
  Speaker 3: became a parent Okay, Brady stacks over Belichick. Like as
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: far as this though, isn't it a completely different sport?
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: Like I have lost some respect for him in that
• 10:52
  Speaker 3: I thought he was the ultimate, no days off, no distractions,
• 10:56
  Speaker 3: all ball, total focus. And I think he's embarrassed himself
• 11:01
  Speaker 3: with the Jordan thing. Like we've got guys defending him
• 11:04
  Speaker 3: bone basically because she's a hot young woman, and well,
• 11:08
  Speaker 3: what's he to do?
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: What's he to do? Man, we'd all do that.
• 11:13
  Speaker 3: The guy that was the most driven coach, the most
• 11:16
  Speaker 3: no nonsense coach, I'm sorry, should not let his hormones
• 11:20
  Speaker 3: take over at the age of seventy three.
• 11:22
  Speaker 4: Oh, Like I just I think, for god, say, it's
• 11:25
  Speaker 4: your Belichick, not Ric Flair.
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: So it's it.
• 11:26
  Speaker 3: That part's embarrassing, the way you're not Rick Flair, Rick Flair,
• 11:32
  Speaker 3: catch it astray.
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: The whole thing.
• 11:35
  Speaker 3: The attachment to the long line, the attachment to Lombardi
• 11:39
  Speaker 3: is embarrassing. In fact, you thought you and him could do.
• 11:43
  Speaker 3: This is embarrassing, but it doesn't affect his NFL coaching
• 11:46
  Speaker 3: legacy though, does it.
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: I wouldn't think it would.
• 11:50
  Speaker 4: But it also ties into the end of the New
• 11:53
  Speaker 4: England run where he lost it. There he's got the
• 11:55
  Speaker 4: cheating stuff on top of that. Look, he's an all
• 11:58
  Speaker 4: time great coach, there's no doubt. I've always been a
• 12:01
  Speaker 4: huge supporter of Yeah, he's the goat in the NFL,
• 12:05
  Speaker 4: but this has gotten so bad. I wonder now if
• 12:09
  Speaker 4: is overall. Here's the thing, too, Mac, do you hear
• 12:12
  Speaker 4: any of his former players ever come out and stand
• 12:15
  Speaker 4: up for him ever?
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: At all? He coached forever in this league. Does anyone
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: ever from the Giants year to Cleveland to New England?
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: Does anyone has anyone come out back in the last
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: two years and said hold on? And this day and age,
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: when all these former guys have podcasts, they're on radio shows,
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: they can find their way to talk, does anyone from
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: the past ever defend Bill Belichick? I watched Old Timers
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: Day the other day for the Yankees. They absolutely those
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: old players. They can't tell you enough about how much
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: they love Joe Tory. I watched a story the other
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: day about how much the old Spurs players absolutely idolize
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: forever what Greg Pavovitch meant to them. Do you ever
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: hear anybody talk about Belichick and that white from the
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: past ever?
• 12:56
  Speaker 3: No, because I don't think they like him. I don't either,
• 12:58
  Speaker 3: but I don't think. But they're different ways to do it, right,
• 13:01
  Speaker 3: They're different. Like you can't take away the rings in
• 13:03
  Speaker 3: the success. I mean, I guess you can diminish it
• 13:05
  Speaker 3: by pointing out that we think Brady had more to
• 13:08
  Speaker 3: do with it than you. So I guess you can
• 13:11
  Speaker 3: diminish his success. But you don't have to be liked.
• 13:14
  Speaker 3: You have to be respected as a coach, right, Yeah,
• 13:17
  Speaker 3: I get, I do get what you're saying. I will
• 13:19
  Speaker 3: say this, they're not standing up for him now. No
• 13:21
  Speaker 3: one's really seems to be saying, hey, give him a
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: chance and stuff like that. They are laughing at the
• 13:27
  Speaker 3: Jordan stuff. They at least have some of his form players.
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: I don't know. That's an interesting point.
• 13:31
  Speaker 3: What do you guys think is Bill Belichick doing damage
• 13:34
  Speaker 3: to his legacy or is that already set in the
• 13:38
  Speaker 3: NFL and this stuff is just seen as kind of like, well,
• 13:41
  Speaker 3: he tried something different, and he failed. This Texter says,
• 13:45
  Speaker 3: how come Nick Saban's legacy was not damaged when he
• 13:48
  Speaker 3: failed and quit in the NFL. What would you say
• 13:53
  Speaker 3: to that bone.
• 13:54
  Speaker 4: Well, because he went to college and became the best
• 13:57
  Speaker 4: ever there to think about Nick Sabans.
• 13:59
  Speaker 3: But it Bill's the best ever in the provers or
• 14:01
  Speaker 3: at least one of them. By the way, Nick Saban failed,
• 14:04
  Speaker 3: he went six and ten year two. Let's not forget
• 14:07
  Speaker 3: Miami Dolphins have been a laughing stock franchise for about
• 14:11
  Speaker 3: twenty five to thirty years.
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: Nick Saban did.
• 14:13
  Speaker 4: Go nine and seven year number one. He didn't really
• 14:16
  Speaker 4: last long. Obviously, Year two went awry.
• 14:18
  Speaker 3: But you're saying he wasn't Belichick at UNC band nine
• 14:21
  Speaker 3: and seven his first crack at it soo and knowing Saban,
• 14:25
  Speaker 3: I'm guessing he would have figured it out.
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: Guessing he would have figured things out. I believe he.
• 14:32
  Speaker 3: Might have been a to use his word, his first year,
• 14:36
  Speaker 3: his first year in the NFL went much better than
• 14:39
  Speaker 3: what Belichick did. You see, Yeah, your point stand said that,
• 14:42
  Speaker 3: by no means should he be viewed as a failure
• 14:44
  Speaker 3: there to the level at Belichick so far, so far,
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: we might have to retract this. We don't have to
• 14:48
  Speaker 3: give him credit if he can turn it around. But
• 14:51
  Speaker 3: I see what your point is. I personally think Nick
• 14:53
  Speaker 3: Saban was made to coach college football. I don't think
• 14:55
  Speaker 3: he was made to coach guys that are making millions
• 14:57
  Speaker 3: in more than him. I just don't think he could
• 14:59
  Speaker 3: coach same way in the pros, and I think he
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: learned that, you know, so I don't think he would
• 15:04
  Speaker 3: have been near as successful. And there's nothing wrong with
• 15:07
  Speaker 3: that bone. There are plenty of guys. We've seen it
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: in basketball. College coach tries tries the pros like it's there.
• 15:15
  Speaker 3: I firmly believe it's different. They're different games. So I
• 15:18
  Speaker 3: don't judge you as an NFL coach if you are
• 15:21
  Speaker 3: a bleep show as a college coach. What do you
• 15:24
  Speaker 3: think about this fitty are you? Do you think Belichick
• 15:27
  Speaker 3: is damaging his legacy or do you think everybody will
• 15:29
  Speaker 3: just kind of make jokes and laugh this off.
• 15:31
  Speaker 5: No, I don't think when we look back at the
• 15:34
  Speaker 5: legacy that Bill Belichick has in football, we'll talk about
• 15:38
  Speaker 5: what is more than likely going to be a failure
• 15:40
  Speaker 5: at the collegiate level. You remember the championships and all
• 15:44
  Speaker 5: the impact he had at the NFL level, and I
• 15:48
  Speaker 5: think that's that's gonna be that's gonna be the right
• 15:51
  Speaker 5: way to do because we've never seen a coach outside
• 15:54
  Speaker 5: of Jimmy Johnson. How many coaches have conquered both worlds.
• 15:57
  Speaker 5: Pete Carroll, Pete Pete, Pete Carroll. I guess in more
• 16:01
  Speaker 5: modern in the rest of my lifetime, Harball, you saw him.
• 16:05
  Speaker 5: Harball didn't conquer though college football or I'm at the NFL.
• 16:09
  Speaker 5: He never wont to. He never won a championship at that.
• 16:11
  Speaker 3: He in his Super Bowl he he was good.
• 16:15
  Speaker 5: I said conquer, But how about he didn't win. He
• 16:17
  Speaker 5: didn't win a championship.
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: I both.
• 16:18
  Speaker 3: However, someone points out Lou Holtz though Bo Lou Holtz
• 16:21
  Speaker 3: was three and ten with.
• 16:23
  Speaker 5: I don't know it was running the options for Joe.
• 16:25
  Speaker 3: Nat my name being brought up beyond the Green, you
• 16:28
  Speaker 3: don't have no one brings up his NFL failure though
• 16:30
  Speaker 3: no one cares right because of the where he want
• 16:33
  Speaker 3: to title that too, like because but but because everybody
• 16:36
  Speaker 3: realizes it's two separate games.
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: He was bad in the NFL.
• 16:39
  Speaker 3: His legacy is is a great college coach, and that's
• 16:41
  Speaker 3: what I'm saying. I'm saying Belichick's legacy is a great
• 16:48
  Speaker 3: NFL coach. I don't think it's changed by this bleep show.
• 16:51
  Speaker 5: No, I don't think so either, you know, And and
• 16:54
  Speaker 5: I'm not rooting, like I'm not entering the year. I
• 16:56
  Speaker 5: have a very pessimistic outlook for what this year can be.
• 17:02
  Speaker 5: But I'm not going into the year hoping that they
• 17:05
  Speaker 5: like I hope, like I hope against TCU, they either
• 17:09
  Speaker 5: a win the game obviously or be compete at a
• 17:12
  Speaker 5: level that gives that gives me something to believe in
• 17:14
  Speaker 5: for the rest of them.
• 17:15
  Speaker 3: So you're not buying this whole thing from Roy Philpott yesterday,
• 17:18
  Speaker 3: tar heel fans root for losses so you get a
• 17:20
  Speaker 3: new coach. But when you listen to Josh Petough talk
• 17:23
  Speaker 3: about I know guys in a coaching community it would
• 17:26
  Speaker 3: love to have this job, yeah, and that they why
• 17:29
  Speaker 3: don't you then just want to get a real coach
• 17:32
  Speaker 3: like Bubba Cunningham was trying to hire a real coach
• 17:34
  Speaker 3: and John Pryor said, no, we're gonna have this infatuation
• 17:37
  Speaker 3: with Belichick and throw all this money at him, Like,
• 17:40
  Speaker 3: why don't you want to try to get a real coach,
• 17:43
  Speaker 3: and I get you believe he could turn it around.
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: I guess.
• 17:46
  Speaker 5: I mean, I'm still you.
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: Can't allow yourself to root against the gi I.
• 17:50
  Speaker 5: Just don't think that's I can't fan that way. Respect
• 17:55
  Speaker 5: that it's different at the PROSMAC where we're losing, there's
• 17:59
  Speaker 5: value because of half picks. How you can position yourself
• 18:02
  Speaker 5: for the future in college football. If you lose and
• 18:07
  Speaker 5: you and you're not competitive. All these kids that he
• 18:10
  Speaker 5: just recruited, how many them are gonna stick around through
• 18:12
  Speaker 5: a coaching change. And now, granted we've seen it with
• 18:14
  Speaker 5: Indiana and other schools. Yeah, you can flip a roster
• 18:17
  Speaker 5: in an off season. But here's the thing. As long
• 18:20
  Speaker 5: as Carolina has committed financially, and that's the most important
• 18:24
  Speaker 5: aspect of all this, then they'll be able to attract
• 18:27
  Speaker 5: a really good football coach. And as long as the
• 18:30
  Speaker 5: commitment from the chancellor down is where it is when
• 18:33
  Speaker 5: they made the move to go bring in Belichick, then
• 18:35
  Speaker 5: when they move on from Belichick, they'll be able to
• 18:38
  Speaker 5: go get like a guy got my eye on, like
• 18:39
  Speaker 5: Luke Fickle Wisconsin.
• 18:42
  Speaker 4: Tenconsin what's also gonna make Belichick look bad? Is when
• 18:47
  Speaker 4: another championship coach comes in from the pros and Michael
• 18:50
  Speaker 4: Malone and does a nice job right away with the
• 18:52
  Speaker 4: basketball program.
• 18:53
  Speaker 3: He's gonna I think he's gonna be fine. He's gonna
• 18:55
  Speaker 3: come in and he will definitely go'll be better in Belichick.
• 18:58
  Speaker 3: I can tell you that right now. Let's not lose
• 19:01
  Speaker 3: everybody's got an opinion on his Belichick thing. Let's not
• 19:04
  Speaker 3: lose sight of the fact that Derek from Concord sent
• 19:07
  Speaker 3: the most important text during that segment. It says, quick
• 19:10
  Speaker 3: note here fellas, the breakfast of champions is QTS Peaches
• 19:14

  Speaker 5: But you know y'all were too good to take the
• 19:41
  Speaker 5: time to go buy BUCkies.
• 19:43
  Speaker 4: I have an issue with QT. I have an issue
• 19:45
  Speaker 4: with QT, and I've emailed them about it. They have
• 19:47
  Speaker 4: not responded yet. The hot dogs, the actual dog, love it.
• 19:52
  Speaker 4: They're buns though many get they get dried out in
• 19:54
  Speaker 4: that and that they need to send a message. Emailed

  Speaker 4: them and they we've had back and forth about improving
• 20:00
  Speaker 4: their buns.

  Speaker 5: I don't get why they've got to be steaming.
• 20:03
  Speaker 4: They just get dried out. I bring, I bring, I
• 20:06
  Speaker 4: transport the Wiener in the case home, excuse me. And
• 20:10
  Speaker 4: then I use my own buns. I don't use their buns.
• 20:14
  Speaker 4: I take the hot dog home and the plastic case,
• 20:16
  Speaker 4: bring it home and place in my already, but my buds.
• 20:20
  Speaker 3: I trust you are a hero for QT customers everywhere
• 20:23
  Speaker 3: trying to make a change in their bun game.
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 20:25
  Speaker 4: I mean, seriously, maybe it's on the store. They gotta
• 20:29
  Speaker 4: they gotta swap them out more. They leave those buds
• 20:31
  Speaker 4: over there and they crumble and they're so dry that
• 20:34
  Speaker 4: I can't have crumbling buns.
• 20:35
  Speaker 5: Who needs a bun adjustment more? Chris Berman or quick.
• 20:37
  Speaker 3: Trip Chris Burn. Now that's a funny joke right there, fitdie,
• 20:41
  Speaker 3: that's fun. Someone tweeted out yesterday about Chris Berman's pants
• 20:45
  Speaker 3: falling down.
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: His pants good go oh the way gone.
• 20:50
  Speaker 4: When we come back, we tak Panthers schedule. How many
• 20:53
  Speaker 4: wins do the Panthers need in the NFC South? And
• 20:57
  Speaker 4: how about the first four games? How many wins they
• 20:59
  Speaker 4: are do we need? Sports Radio ninety two seven WFNZ.
• 21:32
  Speaker 5: I heard Bryce go over to the defensive coordinator say, hey,
• 21:36
  Speaker 5: when we do this, why are you guys going to
• 21:38
  Speaker 5: this to this coverage.
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: I love that. And I didn't hear that from Bryce
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: last year.
• 21:44
  Speaker 5: And I love hearing that because you can I don't
• 21:47
  Speaker 5: start to see.
• 21:47
  Speaker 6: His clicking.
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: There you go. I love it.
• 21:50
  Speaker 3: Steve Smith talking about what he sees. I mean, you
• 21:53
  Speaker 3: have so many stories of this bone. Yesterday brad Zick
• 21:56
  Speaker 3: was waxing poetic about what Bryce is doing so far
• 22:00
  Speaker 3: in camp pre snap and just how much better.
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: He is pre snap. And that's like you're.
• 22:06
  Speaker 3: Just every day it's someone else Smithy's opinion and brad
• 22:09
  Speaker 3: insac opinion. They know ball those are pretty good opinions.
• 22:12
  Speaker 3: The rest of us, you know, maybe outsiders, but every
• 22:16
  Speaker 3: day you're hearing from people bone of what Bryce is
• 22:20
  Speaker 3: doing better right now. It goes back to the conversation yesterday.
• 22:24
  Speaker 3: We're going to get a different level Bryce. My only
• 22:27
  Speaker 3: question is how hid's that level? Yeah? We are.
• 22:30
  Speaker 4: We ready to see a different form of Bryce. And
• 22:33
  Speaker 4: by that I mean mack not a guy that you
• 22:36
  Speaker 4: could simply win with, but a guy that can nominate
• 22:41
  Speaker 4: and pick up the team and carry them. He does
• 22:43
  Speaker 4: it sometimes in the fourth quarter, he's great late. Can
• 22:47
  Speaker 4: we get that Bryce fully in games the whole way
• 22:50
  Speaker 4: through where he can carry things going forward? That's what
• 22:52
  Speaker 4: we need to see when the receivers aren't having a
• 22:55
  Speaker 4: great day, the running game's not there, bad defensive day.
• 22:58
  Speaker 4: Is there a takeover aspect of Bryce's game?
• 23:02
  Speaker 2: To me? I want to see that more. Yeah, and
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: I'd like to see it, I'll do.
• 23:06
  Speaker 3: I'd like to see it other than the two Falcon
• 23:08
  Speaker 3: games each year because we know it's gonna happen now, but.
• 23:11
  Speaker 2: Keep doing those games, all right?
• 23:13
  Speaker 3: So speaking of the Falcons game, let's talk about let's
• 23:18
  Speaker 3: talk about the couple of different ways to break down
• 23:20
  Speaker 3: the schedule as we are just dying for football, can't
• 23:25
  Speaker 3: wait see starters play against the Bills on Saturday. So
• 23:28
  Speaker 3: you were telling me yesterday Bone you saw the over
• 23:30
  Speaker 3: under numbers for divisional wins and the Panther over underwin
• 23:35
  Speaker 3: number that you can wager on for divisional games. Your
• 23:39
  Speaker 3: six divisional games was three. That's exactly what they won
• 23:44
  Speaker 3: last year. What is and I'm asking everybody out there
• 23:48
  Speaker 3: to Panther fan that wants to chime in on this,
• 23:51
  Speaker 3: what is the number that we want to aim for.
• 23:55
  Speaker 3: I feel like four and two. I feel like winning
• 23:59
  Speaker 3: record in the de Vision with our schedule, you know,
• 24:02
  Speaker 3: as tough as it does look, I think you got
• 24:05
  Speaker 3: to get that winning record in a division that, let's
• 24:07
  Speaker 3: be honest, is not necessarily great.
• 24:10
  Speaker 4: Yeah. Uh, Bus were at three and three and a half.
• 24:12
  Speaker 4: I think where they they were right above the Panthers,
• 24:15
  Speaker 4: if memory serves me, right on their number. I had
• 24:18
  Speaker 4: them at four and two as well, and actually wrote
• 24:20
  Speaker 4: down how they would get to four and two. Obviously
• 24:23
  Speaker 4: there's a different path there. That's fine. I liked, not liked,
• 24:27
  Speaker 4: but what I liked in terms of the projection was
• 24:29
  Speaker 4: split with the Bucks to be fair, split with the Saints,
• 24:33
  Speaker 4: which they didn't do last year. And then I don't
• 24:35
  Speaker 4: think this Atlanta team is going to be very good.
• 24:37
  Speaker 4: I had them sweeping Atlanta, so I had them at
• 24:41
  Speaker 4: four and two. Obviously, I hope they can win them all.
• 24:44
  Speaker 4: Maybe they can sweep the Saints and maybe get to five.
• 24:47
  Speaker 4: I don't know, but if they can get the Falcons
• 24:50
  Speaker 4: two and then put the other ones, that gets them
• 24:53
  Speaker 4: to what we wanted.
• 24:54
  Speaker 3: What we wanted, I have the exact same path that
• 24:57
  Speaker 3: I think is not a Homer path. Right, we've conceded
• 25:01
  Speaker 3: a split with the Bucks and split with the Saints.
• 25:04
  Speaker 3: I gonna be honest with you, bone they should have
• 25:06
  Speaker 3: swept the Bucks last year. Now, the referees played a role,
• 25:09
  Speaker 3: but the Panthers also, I thought didn't come out great
• 25:11
  Speaker 3: to start that second Bucks game, but they could have
• 25:14
  Speaker 3: swept them last year. They I left the Saints games
• 25:18
  Speaker 3: feeling like, my god, we at least should have split
• 25:20
  Speaker 3: with them. So I don't think it's a Homer thing
• 25:25
  Speaker 3: to say. And the Falcons now that first game looks
• 25:29
  Speaker 3: like it's very good chances played with both their edge
• 25:31
  Speaker 3: rushers missing and Kanellis who left in free agency, not
• 25:35
  Speaker 3: a part of that defense. The quarterback situation, I think
• 25:38
  Speaker 3: our Panther defense can take advantage of their quarterback situation.
• 25:42
  Speaker 3: Plus Bryce goes off on those fools like he just
• 25:44
  Speaker 3: seems to own those boys. So I don't think that's
• 25:47
  Speaker 3: a homer thing to say at all. Is give us
• 25:49
  Speaker 3: four and two in the division that way. I thought
• 25:53
  Speaker 3: they should have had a winning record in the division
• 25:55
  Speaker 3: last year. I really did. And I think some of
• 25:57
  Speaker 3: the out of division games bone are so tough that
• 26:01
  Speaker 3: I think you've got to get that winning record in
• 26:04
  Speaker 3: the division.
• 26:05
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and I even thought, you know what, I know
• 26:08
  Speaker 4: that they struggled with them last year, But I mean
• 26:13
  Speaker 4: they could still beat the Saints twice. That's not their
• 26:15
  Speaker 4: own possibility either.
• 26:16
  Speaker 3: Here.
• 26:17
  Speaker 4: We'll see how they do. They do the Saints back
• 26:19
  Speaker 4: continue their solid play towards the end of last year,
• 26:24
  Speaker 4: or is there a drop off with Tyler Schuck. Well,
• 26:26
  Speaker 4: we'll see about that as well. So that's not one
• 26:28
  Speaker 4: where I'm necessarily convinced it'll be a split.
• 26:31
  Speaker 2: I get to the Panthers win have bought those games.
• 26:33
  Speaker 3: Teams will have the benefit of tape on Tyler Shuck.
• 26:38
  Speaker 3: They will have the benefit of more tape now, and
• 26:40
  Speaker 3: I'll be interested to see.
• 26:41
  Speaker 6: Now.
• 26:41
  Speaker 3: The thing is they added some weaponry for Tyler Shuck.
• 26:45
  Speaker 3: That offense, Yeah, could be pretty damn good. But I
• 26:47
  Speaker 3: love my Panther defense too, so I think they could
• 26:49
  Speaker 3: be good battles. But they brought Hn in in the backfield.
• 26:54
  Speaker 3: They brought Jordan Tyson in the draft to go with
• 26:56
  Speaker 3: a love getting rave reviews by the way, So he's
• 26:58
  Speaker 3: having a great camp. So like I think, I think
• 27:01
  Speaker 3: the Saints are are formidable. I do think they lost
• 27:05
  Speaker 3: some pieces on that defense, right. They lost a Lante
• 27:07
  Speaker 3: Taylor who gave the Panthers fits as could not block
• 27:12
  Speaker 3: him off the edge on his blitzes as a corner
• 27:14
  Speaker 3: of all things. And they lost to Mario Davis, who
• 27:17
  Speaker 3: I have so much respect for. I think he was
• 27:19
  Speaker 3: such a good player. So I just I think I
• 27:24
  Speaker 3: think what we're saying, I think is fair. Like I'm
• 27:26
  Speaker 3: not saying we can't, you know, sweep them, but I'm
• 27:30
  Speaker 3: not I'm not trying to act greedy.
• 27:31
  Speaker 2: I'm not trying to be a homer for once.
• 27:33
  Speaker 3: I'm looking at it, and I think that is an
• 27:35
  Speaker 3: honest path to four and two in this division you
• 27:38
  Speaker 3: play in the NFC South, what you added in the offseason,
• 27:43
  Speaker 3: you should be capable of having a winning record in
• 27:45
  Speaker 3: this turn of a division. Just I'm just gonna put
• 27:47
  Speaker 3: it that way, Like you should be at this point
• 27:49
  Speaker 3: in your franchise development that you can have a winning
• 27:52
  Speaker 3: record against the armpit Division. All right, we should be
• 27:57
  Speaker 3: able to win the damn thing again and with a
• 27:59
  Speaker 3: winning record or two. I don't think I'm asking for
• 28:01
  Speaker 3: too much.
• 28:01
  Speaker 4: Know how Monster Energy MAC now sponsors the Big twelve,
• 28:05
  Speaker 4: Old Spice should sponsor the NFC South, the.
• 28:10
  Speaker 2: Old Spice South champions.
• 28:12
  Speaker 3: Fitty, what's your What do you think they need to
• 28:14
  Speaker 3: do out of the or in the division?
• 28:18
  Speaker 5: I think I think four and two is probably where
• 28:20
  Speaker 5: my head is at.
• 28:22
  Speaker 3: Multiple five and one is coming in people. This dude
• 28:25
  Speaker 3: says you're not you're not aiming high enough. I take
• 28:28
  Speaker 3: five and one.
• 28:28
  Speaker 5: I mean five and one would mean that you're sweeping
• 28:31
  Speaker 5: two teams. And I would like to think Mac that
• 28:35
  Speaker 5: they could sweep New Orleans and Atlanta. I think you're
• 28:39
  Speaker 5: just asking too much because of how munch they struggled
• 28:44
  Speaker 5: against Tow Orleans last year, because of course they got
• 28:48
  Speaker 5: swept by the Saints had they're one of the worst
• 28:51
  Speaker 5: offense performances at home against New Orleans a year ago.
• 28:54
  Speaker 5: But if you if you go four and two, I
• 28:57
  Speaker 5: think that puts you in a in a really good
• 28:59
  Speaker 5: spot to stay. He'll get to ten or eleven, I Mack,
• 29:03
  Speaker 5: if you go five and one in the division.
• 29:07
  Speaker 2: Woo you. Yeah, you put yourself in a real good tear.
• 29:10
  Speaker 5: You're flirting with eleven twelve wins dv R.
• 29:14
  Speaker 3: Dave says, why not sweep Tampa? It sounds like the
• 29:16
  Speaker 3: wheels are coming off there. Do you believe that?
• 29:18
  Speaker 2: Bone? Not yet?
• 29:20
  Speaker 4: We have to see him get to the regular season
• 29:22
  Speaker 4: and see what happens. It's not been a great run
• 29:24
  Speaker 4: for Tampa, but I don't know. We'll We'll see now
• 29:27
  Speaker 4: if they get off to a slow star with Todd Bowles,
• 29:29
  Speaker 4: then it really could fall apart because he's on the
• 29:31
  Speaker 4: hot seat.
• 29:31
  Speaker 2: But we have to see how it plays out.
• 29:33
  Speaker 3: Or I felt like they quit on Todd Bowles last year,
• 29:36
  Speaker 3: and it feels like two of their star players Bone
• 29:38
  Speaker 3: are pretty pissed at the organization, So I could see
• 29:40
  Speaker 3: why Dave says that. But I also think you're gonna
• 29:44
  Speaker 3: have chip on the shoulder Baker, like a whole Pringles can.
• 29:47
  Speaker 2: Of chips on his shoulder.
• 29:48
  Speaker 3: Yes, like he will play out of anger towards the organization,
• 29:51
  Speaker 3: Like he will be like literally, I will have a
• 29:54
  Speaker 3: season where you will have to pay me a king's ransom.
• 29:59
  Speaker 3: Or I leave you, you know what I mean, and
• 30:00
  Speaker 3: they'll probably end up just tagging him the.
• 30:02
  Speaker 4: Thing with him to monitor. Also, you know Mac, because
• 30:06
  Speaker 4: he wants that money. That dude's gonna play hurt all
• 30:09
  Speaker 4: year while by the time we get that out of
• 30:10
  Speaker 4: the year, he's he's gonna he's not gonna tell them
• 30:13
  Speaker 4: what's by he is. He may play well, but by
• 30:16
  Speaker 4: the end of the year, that dude, did he just
• 30:18
  Speaker 4: smack himself?
• 30:19
  Speaker 3: If he's bang banged the table back, then he is.
• 30:21
  Speaker 3: He's very, very sorry about Baker Mayfield's body. He is
• 30:25
  Speaker 3: someone just that that's the rub is Baker Mayfield would
• 30:27
  Speaker 3: be motivated if he gets hurt.
• 30:29
  Speaker 2: We saw him last year playing through injury, through it.
• 30:31
  Speaker 4: So someone says, is there construction this morning on the
• 30:34
  Speaker 4: Homer Highway?
• 30:35
  Speaker 2: Where did Mac and Bung go?
• 30:36
  Speaker 3: No, we're on the We're on the Mejor Parkway right now.
• 30:39
  Speaker 3: Let us let us enjoy nice drive today. Yeah, Vin
• 30:41
  Speaker 3: Greasy says, y'all crazy? We going six and oh another Texter,
• 30:44
  Speaker 3: this is the most negative conference, negative conversation. The higher
• 30:47
  Speaker 3: and two clearing the Vegas number on our division win total.
• 30:51
  Speaker 4: At the other division numbers, there's no one higher than four.
• 30:54
  Speaker 4: That the four is like the highest one because Seattle
• 30:57
  Speaker 4: and the Rams are in the same division, so they're
• 30:59
  Speaker 4: not going higher. They play each other. No one's higher
• 31:02
  Speaker 4: than four. It's all in the same relative windows. This
• 31:05
  Speaker 4: is the NFL. This isn't like the Big twelve. This
• 31:07
  Speaker 4: is in Miami in the ACC here necessarily. Now, what
• 31:10
  Speaker 4: do you think about this one fit? We got called
• 31:12
  Speaker 4: out yesterday by a Texter that and I'll paraphrase it
• 31:17
  Speaker 4: because I didn't save it.
• 31:18
  Speaker 2: But so I can't give credit either.
• 31:21
  Speaker 3: Somebody says, I heard you guys talking about how you
• 31:24
  Speaker 3: both downgraded from four and oh starts to the regular season.
• 31:29
  Speaker 2: What goes you at, Fitty?
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: Right?
• 31:30
  Speaker 2: Me and Fitty?
• 31:31
  Speaker 3: What do y'all think the record is now in the
• 31:35
  Speaker 3: first four games? So we we said four and two
• 31:38
  Speaker 3: in the division?
• 31:39
  Speaker 2: What is the.
• 31:40
  Speaker 3: Aim in the first four games? Since we chickened out
• 31:43
  Speaker 3: on four and oh? Like, what do y'all start with?
• 31:46
  Speaker 3: You bone, what would you say?
• 31:47
  Speaker 4: I would say, because Chicago and Detroit are good, Atlanta
• 31:52
  Speaker 4: has got to be a Alana has got to be.
• 31:54
  Speaker 6: A Dub Dub.
• 31:55
  Speaker 4: There's no in Cleveland, right, Yeah? That their situation. The
• 31:58
  Speaker 4: QUDD situation our defense and I'm saying our because I'm
• 32:01
  Speaker 4: going Homer mode our defense verse their situation on offense.
• 32:05
  Speaker 3: That's got to be a win. There's two there, and
• 32:07
  Speaker 3: then split Chicago another two. Don't want to get too greedy.
• 32:11
  Speaker 3: Split one of those. Three and one to me would
• 32:13
  Speaker 3: be ideal, and then we go from there three and one.
• 32:15
  Speaker 3: Then it's a bye week right after that. Yeah, and
• 32:18
  Speaker 3: then it's the real after that. It's really say up
• 32:21
  Speaker 3: Green Bay, Denver in a rows.
• 32:23
  Speaker 4: But you guys to three and one, get to a
• 32:25
  Speaker 4: bye week, reset your mind a little bit, and then
• 32:27
  Speaker 4: go to that stretch three and one. To me, we're
• 32:29
  Speaker 4: doing we're doing jumping ja. I think that's where I'm at.
• 32:31
  Speaker 2: Bone. I like the way you're thinking today.
• 32:33
  Speaker 4: Man.
• 32:33
  Speaker 2: We like sharing a brain today.
• 32:35
  Speaker 3: And some people have said we have one brain between
• 32:37
  Speaker 3: the two, but I thought that was a compliment. But
• 32:40
  Speaker 3: I like that you split somehow in Chicago and Detroit.
• 32:43
  Speaker 3: I have backed off of beating both those teams, so
• 32:47
  Speaker 3: you split in those games both at home too. That
• 32:51
  Speaker 3: Sunday night game, man, those fans are going to be cranked.
• 32:56
  Speaker 3: They are going to be fired up, and then you
• 32:58
  Speaker 3: gotta get the Atlantic Cleve on the road. Now here's
• 33:01
  Speaker 3: the problem. Last year's team, I'll read a Texas Texter
• 33:05
  Speaker 3: brings up a good point seven oh four number. How
• 33:08
  Speaker 3: the hell they gonna go four and oh to start
• 33:10
  Speaker 3: a season. They couldn't win two in a row last year?
• 33:14
  Speaker 3: Last year, Bone, remember the remember what it what? The
• 33:17
  Speaker 3: season became a lot of win one, lose one. They
• 33:21
  Speaker 3: need to find another level of consistency. And I think
• 33:23
  Speaker 3: that would come if Bryce can find his consistency. Bryce
• 33:27
  Speaker 3: needs consistency too. But yeah, I don't want to act
• 33:31
  Speaker 3: like we could take you know, Atlanta and Cleveland back
• 33:33
  Speaker 3: to back, for granted, but I want to three and
• 33:37
  Speaker 3: one start to your point, Bone, If they start two
• 33:40
  Speaker 3: and two or worse and then have to play Philly, Tampa,
• 33:44
  Speaker 3: Green Bay and Denver Man they did have, that's scary.
• 33:48
  Speaker 4: They did have a three game winning streak last year.
• 33:51
  Speaker 4: That's the longest under Canalist. That was the the ric
• 33:54
  Speaker 4: O'Dell portion of the season. That was Miami, Dallas and
• 33:57
  Speaker 4: the Jets where they win three or up. They've only
• 34:00
  Speaker 4: not once though in Canals for two years.
• 34:02
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and then after that it then became they can't
• 34:04
  Speaker 3: they can't win two games in a row, Fitty, where
• 34:07
  Speaker 3: are you at?
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: This?
• 34:08
  Speaker 3: Dude says, Fitty has lost me thought he had some
• 34:13
  Speaker 3: swagger and he backed off his prediction. Why has he
• 34:16
  Speaker 3: mad at Fitty and not me for backing off four?
• 34:18
  Speaker 3: And oh, I don't know what do you think? Somebody
• 34:20
  Speaker 3: called you weenie beans?
• 34:21
  Speaker 2: Fitty?
• 34:22
  Speaker 4: You're you're a big pile of weenie beans? Are you
• 34:25
  Speaker 4: at three and one now?
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: Fitty?
• 34:26
  Speaker 5: Absolutely not four? And oh, I'm back like Michael Jordan
• 34:31
  Speaker 5: when he came out of retirement.
• 34:34
  Speaker 2: You wearing the four or five this morning.
• 34:35
  Speaker 5: The injuries had me somewhat concerned. But look, Chicago suffered
• 34:40
  Speaker 5: a major injury. Caine May's got hurt earlier this week
• 34:43
  Speaker 5: up there for Detroit, and Bryce Shung I think is
• 34:47
  Speaker 5: having the best training camp of his life. And I
• 34:50
  Speaker 5: think he has taken He's taken that next step. I
• 34:54
  Speaker 5: saw a different demeanor from this football team when they
• 34:57
  Speaker 5: were out at FanFest. We'll see the starters on the field.
• 35:00
  Speaker 4: This weekend at.
• 35:02
  Speaker 5: High Mark Stadium, and the high Mark will be this
• 35:05
  Speaker 5: offense marching up and down the field for at least
• 35:08
  Speaker 5: two scoring drives of some capacity. So I'm back, baby,
• 35:13
  Speaker 5: I'm back like I never left. The Panthers are starting
• 35:16
  Speaker 5: the twenty twenty sixth season four and oh home wins
• 35:20
  Speaker 5: over Chicago, home wins over Detroit, Road, wins at Atlanta,
• 35:25
  Speaker 5: road wins at Cleveland.
• 35:27
  Speaker 2: Mac has updated a ten win board.
• 35:29
  Speaker 3: Fitty went from eleven and six, then it got crossed
• 35:33
  Speaker 3: out for scaredy cat. Scaredy cats out of ten sow.
• 35:36
  Speaker 3: Now Fitty's back to eleven and six and mac rode
• 35:39
  Speaker 3: up there, got his balls back not as high as
• 35:44
  Speaker 3: Willie p sixteen to one day, Willy Pea still is
• 35:47
  Speaker 3: sixteen to one if he if he thinks we are
• 35:49
  Speaker 3: misrepresenting him. He had the opportunity the other day when
• 35:51
  Speaker 3: he was in here to change that. He looked at
• 35:53
  Speaker 3: it and said, that works for me. I know ball
• 35:56
  Speaker 3: by the way, Fitty, because I know ball. Thank you, sir,
• 35:59
  Speaker 3: thank you, and I'm gonna need his ball knowing at
• 36:02
  Speaker 3: nine o'clock. Have it explained to me how Charlotte Fz
• 36:05
  Speaker 3: blew that chance yesterday? But I digress, Fitty, don't take
• 36:08
  Speaker 3: it personally. At least you have a set to get
• 36:11
  Speaker 3: back mine or on the nightstand. And my wife still
• 36:15
  Speaker 3: got him in a jar.
• 36:16
  Speaker 5: Oh, they got moved because they were in the pantry.
• 36:17
  Speaker 5: Last time I was at the mcle.
• 36:18
  Speaker 3: House tree the pantry. You can't put them in the pantry.
• 36:21
  Speaker 3: Someone might might mistake it for a snack in there.
• 36:25
  Speaker 3: All right, I'm gonna try to that's, isn't it? Trying
• 36:28
  Speaker 3: to segue to the to the break here. Random Craft's
• 36:30
  Speaker 3: coming up next. We have bad news for parents of
• 36:33
  Speaker 3: college age girls in the South. In a dude in
• 36:38
  Speaker 3: Charlotte makes news for a very embarrassing reason.
• 36:41
  Speaker 2: Do not miss this. Sports Radio ninety two seven WFNZ.
• 36:48
  Speaker 6: Random Crap, random crap. Mac and Boone talk, random crap,
• 36:53
  Speaker 6: random crap, random crap. Mack and Boone talk random crap, random,
• 36:58
  Speaker 6: random crapp, random crap, random crap.
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: De fuck crap, Oh crap.
• 37:08
  Speaker 3: We stink like a baby's blowout infested diaper.
• 37:12
  Speaker 2: They talk about crap that is random.
• 37:14
  Speaker 3: It is the Queen City's favorite morning tandem, Mac and Bone,
• 37:18
  Speaker 3: Random crap.
• 37:19
  Speaker 2: Mac and Bone. All right, let's do it, baby, let's
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: do it.
• 37:26
  Speaker 3: We've got tons of football and fun on today's Showbone.
• 37:30
  Speaker 2: We have food.
• 37:31
  Speaker 3: We have in addition, yeah, in addition to this random
• 37:34
  Speaker 3: crap segment at a forty five, we have to have
• 37:37
  Speaker 3: a discussion about Sloppy Joe's Mike Gullick Junior said something
• 37:41
  Speaker 3: that I believe is going to have us divided. Us divided,
• 37:45
  Speaker 3: and there's a good food conversation in general to have too.
• 37:48
  Speaker 3: So that's coming up at a forty five Panthers in
• 37:51
  Speaker 3: college football in the middle. But right now, let's do
• 37:53
  Speaker 3: some random crap and let's start Bone with the story
• 37:56
  Speaker 3: of Charles Schwartzel and his t shot on a par
• 37:59
  Speaker 3: three bone at Bedminster in on the Live Golf Tour
• 38:02
  Speaker 3: this past week.
• 38:04
  Speaker 2: Hits for the ninety people that watched it live with us.
• 38:07
  Speaker 3: Wait, I figure not many of you saw this, so
• 38:09
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna tell you about it. Ball bounced on the green,
• 38:11
  Speaker 3: rolled off into the water, and a big mouth bass
• 38:16
  Speaker 3: caught the ball in his mouth.
• 38:19
  Speaker 2: I have never seen this before in my life.
• 38:22
  Speaker 3: Now, I don't think it changed anything Bone, because he
• 38:24
  Speaker 3: already was in the water, was already gonna have to
• 38:26
  Speaker 3: take a drop and take a penalty stroke. I don't
• 38:29
  Speaker 3: know if you get an extra do you get two
• 38:31
  Speaker 3: penalty strokes because a fish eats your ball?
• 38:34
  Speaker 2: I'm not sure that's the case. But this amuses the
• 38:37
  Speaker 2: heck out of me.
• 38:38
  Speaker 3: And there is video of it bone because they are
• 38:41
  Speaker 3: on TV, even though nobody knows that or cares. And
• 38:45
  Speaker 3: sure enough they say, it looks like a big mouth
• 38:47
  Speaker 3: bass just taking that golf ball right on down the gullet.
• 38:50
  Speaker 3: You're gonna put my ten foil hat on. Macket say,
• 38:52
  Speaker 3: I don't believe it. I think it's a fake mass
• 38:55
  Speaker 3: that live put out there in the water to try
• 38:57
  Speaker 3: to draw ratings for their tournaments. Oh my god, anything
• 39:01
  Speaker 3: can happen. That's what they had a mediate and said,
• 39:03
  Speaker 3: what can we do to draw eyeballs? We need a
• 39:04
  Speaker 3: big old fake bass to be snatching golf balls out.
• 39:07
  Speaker 2: Of the air.
• 39:08
  Speaker 3: They said, the actual golf won't do it. We heat
• 39:12
  Speaker 3: something that will go back.
• 39:13
  Speaker 4: You can do an event where it's just a bass
• 39:18
  Speaker 4: catching golf balls, and I think that might get more
• 39:20
  Speaker 4: viewers than the lift toward us.
• 39:21
  Speaker 3: They should they should actually give you strokes off if
• 39:24
  Speaker 3: you can put it in the bass's mouth, that would
• 39:26
  Speaker 3: like mini golf.
• 39:26
  Speaker 2: That would be entertaining.
• 39:28
  Speaker 3: Like just try to fly it right into the water,
• 39:29
  Speaker 3: just an air shot right into the mouth of the bass.
• 39:33
  Speaker 2: You get minus five strokes. That would be something bad.
• 39:36
  Speaker 3: Come on live, I can't can you believe that they
• 39:39
  Speaker 3: have a new investor and they're going to try to
• 39:41
  Speaker 3: keep going. What you'd be better off throwing your money
• 39:45
  Speaker 3: into the into a dumpster. You'd be better off lightning
• 39:48
  Speaker 3: on fire. Who is the jabbroni who has not been
• 39:50
  Speaker 3: announced yet?
• 39:51
  Speaker 2: What does he have no regard for his own money?
• 39:53
  Speaker 2: Why would you invest in that? It's probably Phil Miggleson
• 39:56
  Speaker 2: needing money right now. I don't think this is going
• 39:58
  Speaker 2: to help you get money. I think you gonna be
• 40:01
  Speaker 2: throwing it away.
• 40:02
  Speaker 6: All right.
• 40:03
  Speaker 2: Speaking of throwing money away, bone, how about this?
• 40:05
  Speaker 3: Everyone's mad at mac now? Why what's wrong? Big mouth
• 40:08
  Speaker 3: bass is the singing fish from the wall in the nineties.
• 40:11
  Speaker 3: You meet a large mouths large mouth? Oh, I can't
• 40:13
  Speaker 3: call a big mouth'd the mouth is large. Fishing the
• 40:16
  Speaker 3: fishing communities, you can't fish dorks out there, seriously, all right?

  Speaker 2: Let's see where we go. Sure you're a large mouth
• 40:49
  Speaker 2: rides the bass.
• 40:50
  Speaker 3: Oh how about this story, man, I'm sure a lot
• 40:55
  Speaker 3: of dads out there, girl, dads can relate to me
• 40:58
  Speaker 3: on this. Even if you're a fisherman. We can get
• 40:59
  Speaker 3: back together on this one. Wealthy parents are paying upwards
• 41:03
  Speaker 3: of sixty five hundred dollars for Southern sorority rush coaches.
• 41:07
  Speaker 2: Coaches.
• 41:08
  Speaker 3: Rush coaches that specialize in Southern schools like Alabama auburt
• 41:12
  Speaker 3: omss are seeing increased demand, especially for out of state
• 41:16
  Speaker 3: students from Jersey, New York, and Connecticut. They need coaching
• 41:21
  Speaker 3: to get those Yankee women to come down, oh my,
• 41:23
  Speaker 3: and behave themselves. That's what I read into that one.
• 41:27
  Speaker 3: I'm sorry Yankee women anyway. I mean, my mom's a
• 41:30
  Speaker 3: Yankee woman, all right, but anyway, hell my wife is
• 41:35
  Speaker 3: for God's sakes.
• 41:35
  Speaker 2: Anyway.
• 41:36
  Speaker 3: Rush coaches charge three thousand to twelve thousand and offer
• 41:40
  Speaker 3: advice on securing outfits and auditing social media profiles. If
• 41:45
  Speaker 3: my daughter comes to me at some point and says, Dad,
• 41:49
  Speaker 3: I need seven thousand dollars to be coached up to
• 41:52
  Speaker 3: get into a good sorority, I'm going to lose my mind.
• 41:55
  Speaker 4: My goodness, talk about a waste of money. It feels
• 41:59
  Speaker 4: like not worth the money. By the way, this is
• 42:01
  Speaker 4: also what Matt rules next coaching job is gonna be
• 42:03
  Speaker 4: after Nebraska runs out of there. You gotta get you know,
• 42:05

  Speaker 2: Seven year plan.
• 42:10
  Speaker 4: He did monitor employ his profiles on LinkedIn when he's
• 42:12
  Speaker 4: coaching the Panthers.
• 42:14
  Speaker 2: That is that is true.
• 42:16
  Speaker 3: He's afraid to adjust the profile. He's got some online expertise.
• 42:20
  Speaker 2: Bone.
• 42:21
  Speaker 3: I don't know how to do this story out of
• 42:23
  Speaker 3: y'all might have the kiddies in the car. I don't
• 42:25
  Speaker 3: know how to do this story, but you know what
