• 0:03
  Speaker 1: Oh, oh, oh, it's Mac and Bo on your radio, baby.
• 0:07
  Speaker 2: This is my friend, Matt. Posh, come on, Posh.
• 0:10
  Speaker 3: This is my friend, T-Bone.
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: Let's have some fun.
• 0:15
  Speaker 4: I can't go to work without listening to Mac and Bone.
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: Do it live. Sports Radio 92.7 WFNZ. Mac and Bone
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: with you. Having a good time. Cruising through two hours
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: on this radio show. Smoke Ludwig, if you're out there,
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: I take back all I screamed about you losing our
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: remote control. Donald, the king of the building, brought us
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: a replacement remote control, Bone. We are channel surfing. Like
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: there's no tomorrow, baby.
• 0:51
  Speaker 3: We sat here for four days and didn't realize, oh,
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: we work in a building with a TV station. There's
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: got to be remotes hanging out somewhere. Never dawned on us.
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: We were trying to figure out who's going to buy
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: a new one. Apparently, Matt, the TV station's got plenty
• 1:03
  Speaker 3: of remotes.
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: Who knew? Who knew? Also, want to shout out Landon.
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: We're putting ACC Network on right now. Of course, clearly.
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: Want to shout out Landon Dickerson. Everybody knows Bone. He
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: attended Hickory High School before moving to South Caldwell and
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: then graduated from there, has local ties. So a local
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: radio host, Bone, should not call him Landon Dickinson. But
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: it turns out, Bone, we got to clean up aisle three.
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: I've done it again on this radio show. So Landon,
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: get well soon, baby. Get well soon, but not soon
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: enough to play against the Panthers, though. Take another week
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: after this week. I don't think I've messed up yet today,
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: have I? Or have I messed up? I've got you
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: beat 7-0. I think I'm up a touchdown and an
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: extra point. All right, let's bring in somebody that you
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: know will not mess up, Bone, on this radio show.
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: She is the hostess with the mostest on the ACC Network,
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: whether it's ACC Huddle. We're all over the place, including
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: the ACC tip-off coverage here in Charlotte this week. And
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: she is now here with us to talk some ACC football.
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: Taylor Tannenbaum, ACC Network, joins us on the Mac and
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: Bone Show. Taylor, how have you been? What's going on? Hello, boys.
• 2:13
  Speaker 4: I've been great. It's been an awesome week. Weeks full
• 2:17
  Speaker 4: of all the things, and always great to be back
• 2:20
  Speaker 4: in Charlotte, but obviously it's short-lived because we are hopping
• 2:23
  Speaker 4: on a plane and heading to Pittsburgh today.
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: I like it. We talked about that game last hour,
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: and I don't know how many Tar Heel fans are
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: with us on this, but we really believe backup QB
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: making a first start for Pitt. Pitt had an emotional
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: win last week, and Caroline is clearly more competitive. I
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: can see a path to an upset for UNC. How
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: do you feel about that?
• 2:47
  Speaker 4: Absolutely. I mean, when a team loses its starting quarterback,
• 2:50
  Speaker 4: that shifts a little bit of everything. Holding Garner is
• 2:54
  Speaker 4: an inexperienced quarterback. This will be his first career start, right?
• 2:58
  Speaker 4: But he's been around the block. He's played at Auburn,
• 3:01
  Speaker 4: Texas State, so he's seen a lot of ball, but
• 3:03
  Speaker 4: I don't know how much live ball with the ones
• 3:08
  Speaker 4: against a team like Carolina that he's seen, right? So
• 3:11
  Speaker 4: if you stick the dogs on him, You never know
• 3:14
  Speaker 4: what could possibly happen. And then it becomes a low
• 3:18
  Speaker 4: scoring affair. And if you're like Carolina last week, you
• 3:21
  Speaker 4: special teams, use your defense to try to generate some
• 3:24
  Speaker 4: points because offensively for Carolina, while it's been okay, I
• 3:29
  Speaker 4: don't know how great they could fare against this pit
• 3:33
  Speaker 4: defense who will always keep the Panthers in the football game.
• 3:36
  Speaker 4: Like no question about it. But when you lose a
• 3:39
  Speaker 4: starting quarterback, yes, to your point, that's grounds for you
• 3:43
  Speaker 4: to believe that Carolina can certainly pull this off on
• 3:45
  Speaker 4: the road.
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: Taylor, another huge game we can't wait to see on
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: Saturday is Wake and NC State. Let's start with the
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: Wake side of things. How impressed have you been with
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: Jake Dickert through a year and now some change into
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: this year, a month in? And what is it that
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: just makes his style work with Wake Forest where it's
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: not always easy to win there.
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: Like he is right now?
• 4:08
  Speaker 4: Yeah, most wins by a head coach in Wake Forest
• 4:11
  Speaker 4: history in his first two years. Nine wins last year
• 4:15
  Speaker 4: and well on their way to the sky's the limit,
• 4:17
  Speaker 4: to be honest with you, at this point this year.
• 4:20
  Speaker 4: I just think he has guys playing hard, man. And
• 4:24
  Speaker 4: part of being a head coach is putting people in
• 4:27
  Speaker 4: position to succeed. He's hired the correct coordinators. in Scotty
• 4:32
  Speaker 4: Hazleton on one side defensively, which that defense is legit.
• 4:37
  Speaker 4: If you ask any of our guys, our analysts, Eddie Royal,
• 4:40
  Speaker 4: Eric McLean, Jimbo Fisher, they're so impressed, especially what they
• 4:43
  Speaker 4: do with that defensive front. They will confuse the heck
• 4:46
  Speaker 4: out of you. And then offensively with Robbie Zell and
• 4:49
  Speaker 4: pairing him with a quarterback that he had a ton
• 4:51
  Speaker 4: of success with at South Alabama once again. It's been
• 4:54
  Speaker 4: a match made in heaven. And then they have found
• 4:57
  Speaker 4: some pieces playmaker wise that have really stepped up to
• 5:02
  Speaker 4: the plate and Carlos Hernandez and this young big receiver
• 5:06
  Speaker 4: and Jack Foley like they've got some dudes and while
• 5:09
  Speaker 4: they may not be big name guys like they play
• 5:11
  Speaker 4: their role to perfection and they execute and he has
• 5:15
  Speaker 4: them believing like strip the name off the jersey like
• 5:18
  Speaker 4: this football team is legit and for whatever reason throughout
• 5:20
  Speaker 4: the years like even when Dave Clawson was there beyond
• 5:23
  Speaker 4: that Wake Forest just doesn't get the love it deserves
• 5:25
  Speaker 4: for certainly overproducing for what they have on the table. And,
• 5:29
  Speaker 4: and once again, that we're seeing that this year and
• 5:31
  Speaker 4: it's pissing me off to no end, but if they
• 5:34
  Speaker 4: just keep winning, hopefully everything takes care of itself. I
• 5:37
  Speaker 4: know if you follow me on Twitter, you know, like
• 5:38
  Speaker 4: I'm enraged about the wake forest Duke conversation. Um, they
• 5:43
  Speaker 4: should be ranked and talked about more highly. But I
• 5:47
  Speaker 4: just love what Jake Dickard is doing there in Winston-Salem.
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: I didn't even have to bring this up. I was
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: going to tell you that my favorite version of you,
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: Taylor Tannenbaum, is Feisty Taylor. I just love it. I
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: love the way that you stand up because somebody's got
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: to do it, right? Like there are plenty of people
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: to stand up for the 11th SEC team to be ranked.
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: So I'm glad that you are out there to do that.
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: And yeah, I really think The performance by Wake against Miami,
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: I think it opened some eyes nationally, but apparently not enough.
• 6:21
  Speaker 4: Apparently not enough. And look, the SEC is great. Do
• 6:24
  Speaker 4: not get me wrong. I covered that league for years.
• 6:27
  Speaker 4: They are unmatched when it comes to certainly recruiting and
• 6:31
  Speaker 4: then also just environment. It's second to none. You are
• 6:34
  Speaker 4: never going to lose a debate on that. I understand
• 6:39
  Speaker 4: that's where that comes from, but that doesn't mean it
• 6:40
  Speaker 4: can detract from some of the quality of the teams
• 6:44
  Speaker 4: in the ACC. And my problem is if you're going
• 6:47
  Speaker 4: to rank some of these teams the way that you are,
• 6:49
  Speaker 4: like you cannot not be ranking Wake and Duke. Like
• 6:52
  Speaker 4: it's just, it's not logical and it's negligence and you
• 6:56
  Speaker 4: need to be paying better attention. And I understand AP
• 6:59
  Speaker 4: poll voters have a lot to look at and I'm
• 7:01
  Speaker 4: not calling everybody out. There are some incredible voters out
• 7:04
  Speaker 4: there who if you look at their ballots are absolutely
• 7:06
  Speaker 4: correct and they watch a lot of tape and a
• 7:08
  Speaker 4: lot of live ball to know what they're talking about.
• 7:11
  Speaker 4: But there's ones out there who just, like, feel like
• 7:13
  Speaker 4: they're granted the right to do this. And it's a responsibility.
• 7:15
  Speaker 4: It's not just a right. And the people who I know,
• 7:18
  Speaker 4: my friend Mark Packer is one of them, who says
• 7:20
  Speaker 4: the AP poll doesn't matter. I have talked to several
• 7:23
  Speaker 4: head coaches currently, and I ask genuinely speaking, like, does
• 7:26
  Speaker 4: this not matter? Like, they'll stand up at a podium
• 7:28
  Speaker 4: and be like, we don't care about the ranking. Peel
• 7:31
  Speaker 4: back the curtain. It does matter. Multiple coaches. I've talked
• 7:34
  Speaker 4: to two in the last two weeks. who have told
• 7:37
  Speaker 4: me it does matter in terms of internally that your
• 7:40
  Speaker 4: message is being received and everything that's happening on the
• 7:42
  Speaker 4: football field for these young men, it's justification that what
• 7:47
  Speaker 4: they're doing is the right thing. It's also in recruiting,
• 7:51
  Speaker 4: especially in this day and age when maybe you may
• 7:53
  Speaker 4: be a team with a name like Wake Forest or
• 7:56
  Speaker 4: Duke and it doesn't resonate as well. If you have
• 7:57
  Speaker 4: a number next to your name, it does resonate with
• 8:00
  Speaker 4: high schoolers. And just, you know, when you've been working
• 8:04
  Speaker 4: so hard at something to not see it come to
• 8:07
  Speaker 4: fruition can be a little bit of a dagger to
• 8:09
  Speaker 4: the heart. And, you know, just validation is important. So
• 8:13
  Speaker 4: for people who say the AP poll doesn't matter, I
• 8:15
  Speaker 4: understand the CFP will come out later. But internally within
• 8:19
  Speaker 4: a program and with a head coach who's trying to
• 8:21
  Speaker 4: send a message and get his guys to do what
• 8:23
  Speaker 4: he wants them to do, it does matter.
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: Wake played a Friday night game against Miami where the
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: eyes of the college football world, because of that spot,
• 8:32
  Speaker 3: were largely on Wake Forest. If you watch that game closely,
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: it actually– paid attention wake forest pushed miami as far
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: as anybody has this year so it's crazy to think
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: for how good as wake is their best performance and
• 8:45
  Speaker 3: their most notable thing of why they should be ranked
• 8:47
  Speaker 3: taylor as you know is how well they fought and
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: played against miami and they don't get credit for that
• 8:52
  Speaker 3: though yeah.
• 8:53
  Speaker 4: No and apparently people people love a good loss and
• 8:56
  Speaker 4: it is losing to the number four team in the
• 8:58
  Speaker 4: country by 13 points granted if you watched With your
• 9:02
  Speaker 4: own two eyes, there were multiple chances in that fourth quarter.
• 9:04
  Speaker 4: There was a drop in the end zone on fourth down.
• 9:06
  Speaker 4: That would have made it a one-score game, and then
• 9:08
  Speaker 4: we're having a completely different conversation. If you watched, you
• 9:12
  Speaker 4: would have seen, like, that is a great loss to
• 9:14
  Speaker 4: the number four team in the country, where it wasn't
• 9:16
  Speaker 4: just a 13-point loss. It was potentially a one-score game
• 9:20
  Speaker 4: at times in that fourth quarter. So I'm with you.
• 9:23
  Speaker 4: You don't want to get me wound up. Finally, Ashley
• 9:25
  Speaker 4: Strohlein just walked in the car. We are going to
• 9:27
  Speaker 4: a workout right now.
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: Oh, she texted us. How about this? Hey, look, there's
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: our Tuesday guest. How many Mac and Bone guests can
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: we get in the same car? Oh, my goodness. Are
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: you guys meeting us for this workout? Is that what
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: I heard? Yeah, be right over. Be right over. We
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: didn't schedule it during our workout window. What is that window, Bone?
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: Window is... Never to never. Later on today. um all
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: right let's um let's hear this let's throw a straw
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: we got a party going on straw.
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: You know the deal don't say where you're working out
• 9:58
  Speaker 3: though it's because our texters might show up so just you.
• 10:00
  Speaker 4: Know absolutely not.
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: Some of y'all out there, yeah, some of y'all out there,
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: we do not want y'all knowing this damn address. That
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: would involve our texters knowing where the gym is also.
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: Some of y'all have issues out there. So, Taylor, what
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: do you think? We're talking all about Wake and giving
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: them flowers. I love the way C.J. Bailey's playing. I
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: love the way he's responded from the complete mess of
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: the Vanderbilt play. And I love that State got that
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: win against Louisville. The problem is... they're so dang banged
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: up as you know, Taylor on the offensive line, Duke Scott.
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: So like, how do you feel about that game in
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: Raleigh on Saturday?
• 10:39
  Speaker 4: You know, I thought Davion Goss came in and did
• 10:41
  Speaker 4: a great job and not the dude who can, can
• 10:44
  Speaker 4: carry the load. It's just been Duke Scott's role at
• 10:46
  Speaker 4: that running back position. So I anticipate he'll step right
• 10:49
  Speaker 4: in and, and pick up where Duke Scott can't be
• 10:53
  Speaker 4: because he's obviously out for this game. Um, per the
• 10:56
  Speaker 4: report that just came out. I love the way they're playing.
• 10:59
  Speaker 4: There's always an opportunity. For whatever reason, they've had success.
• 11:04
  Speaker 4: They've had success in the scenario. Obviously, Wake is in
• 11:06
  Speaker 4: a different place right now, and they're feeling good. Like, there's...
• 11:10
  Speaker 4: You know, we can say what we want externally, you guys,
• 11:13
  Speaker 4: and rag on them all we want for the fumble
• 11:15
  Speaker 4: in the end zone. But, like, clearly what Dave Doran
• 11:18
  Speaker 4: has internally is working. And they have completely turned the page.
• 11:22
  Speaker 4: You almost forget about what happened at that point. The
• 11:25
  Speaker 4: win over Louisville was great. But, like, I would love,
• 11:28
  Speaker 4: you guys, if they could just, like, close a game.
• 11:30
  Speaker 4: It would be really awesome if they could just not
• 11:33
  Speaker 4: take it to the final second of the fourth quarter
• 11:36
  Speaker 4: like one time this season. I'm not so sure that's
• 11:39
  Speaker 4: what it's going to be just because the way that
• 11:40
  Speaker 4: they're built. But you always have a chance when you
• 11:43
  Speaker 4: have C.J.
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: Bailey.
• 11:44
  Speaker 4: And like you just said, credit to him, man. He
• 11:47
  Speaker 4: could have went one direction or the other, and he
• 11:49
  Speaker 4: chose the right one. And we've been saying he's an
• 11:51
  Speaker 4: NFL talent, right? And he wanted to stay in Raleigh,
• 11:54
  Speaker 4: and it's for reasons like this.
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: Like, look.
• 11:57
  Speaker 4: You can rag on them, but everything's still ahead. This
• 11:59
  Speaker 4: league is crazy, and a one loss in conference play
• 12:03
  Speaker 4: at this point means you still have a shot at Charlotte.
• 12:06
  Speaker 4: So why not NC State?
• 12:07
  Speaker 5: Why not?
• 12:08
  Speaker 3: Okay, I like it. I'm having to explain to texters
• 12:11
  Speaker 3: that you and Stro are friends. Someone thinks that Stro
• 12:14
  Speaker 3: was hitchhiking and you happened to see her and she
• 12:16
  Speaker 3: jumped in the car.
• 12:18
  Speaker 4: Let's go with that. It was planned.
• 12:20
  Speaker 3: It was a planned ride. Stro wasn't like, hey, give
• 12:22
  Speaker 3: me a ride. And Taylor was like, all right, come
• 12:23
  Speaker 3: on in. You guys planned this out. That story is juicier.
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: This texter says these two ladies headed to work out
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: just furthermore embarrasses your lack of general activity. Yeah, I'm
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: not going to argue with that. Is anybody surprised that
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: they are more fit than we are, more active than
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: we are?
• 12:40
  Speaker 3: We're working right now. We can't work out and work
• 12:42
  Speaker 3: at the same– we're doing something here.
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: You're a little busy.
• 12:46
  Speaker 4: That's fair.
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: That's our excuse. And later it's nap time, Taylor, all right?
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: That's my excuse for later on. We got you next year.
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: All right, Taylor. Hey, good to talk with you. I'm
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: glad we did get a little peek at Feisty Taylor.
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: I want you to keep that up. The ACC needs
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: ambassadors like you and EMAC and the whole crew fighting
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: a good fight. We appreciate it. Have a good workout.
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: Thank you, Taylor. Appreciate it.
• 13:06
  Speaker 6: Thank you.
• 13:07
  Speaker 4: And I promise next time I'm here, I'm in the studio.
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: Okay, definitely. Yeah, we got to do that. We got
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: to do that. Let us know. I'll bring Murphy in
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: to meet you. Perfect.
• 13:16
  Speaker 5: Oh, my God.
• 13:16
  Speaker 4: That would be bright in my day.
• 13:18
  Speaker 5: All right.
• 13:18
  Speaker 4: Talk to you guys, too, and have a good workout later.
• 13:20
  Speaker 5: Bye. All right.
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: Be good. Have a good workout later. Someone says our
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: workout window is the drive-thru. What's wrong with that? Oh,
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: that's the way we do fitness, baby. It's a little different.
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: Finito's those lunges, Bone, to reach for the food in
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: the drive-thru window. Those are his lunges.
• 13:36
  Speaker 3: I was watching a TikTok video yesterday where a guy
• 13:38
  Speaker 3: got mad at a drive-thru worker and tried to go— it' s
• 13:40
  Speaker 3: an old one, but he tried to fight him through
• 13:42
  Speaker 3: the window and got stuck.
• 13:43
  Speaker 4: In the window.
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: Those are always glorious. Max, you go to McDonald's today? Yeah,
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: I did. I did. I, when I get, by the
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: time I get to Thursday, I got to cheat a
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: little bit. And, uh, yes, I had some McDonald's bacon, egg,
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: and cheese business. You know what they did though at
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: the McDonald's today? I won't mention the specific McDonald's. I
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: don't need to call out anybody specifically. They gave me
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: Fitty the like white egg that usually is in the
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: McMuffin and not like the yellow bone. You're like, Egg
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: that is usually on a bacon, egg, and cheese biscuit. Okay.
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: I was a little upset by that. A little circular
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: egg that goes on a McMuffin, a little white with
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: the yolk in the middle. Yeah. They gave me that
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: instead of the usual bacon, egg, and cheese egg. So
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: they gave you an egg white, basically, right then, huh?
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: I don't know if it's egg. Whatever it's called. Whatever
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: that is. You know what I'm saying, though. You know
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: the difference. And I prefer the bacon, egg, and cheese egg.
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: that they use oh yeah i got you no i
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: got you everybody follow me out there if you're following
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: me out there you also need to improve your diet
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: if you fully understand this someone asked how disappointed was
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: strode to get in the car and find out oh
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: it's these guys again she just they just wanted to
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: have girl talk strode just wanted to chat you know
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: what i mean and there it is these i thought
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: i was done with them That is pretty funny. By
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: the way, I want to say something about Wake Forest.
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: Feisty Taylor has been really wound up on behalf of them,
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: and I do love it, and I think she's got
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: a great point there. I want to talk about Carlos Hernandez.
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: Everybody talks about Gio Lopez, and that system's perfect for him,
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: and Carolina misused him, and that whole conversation. How tough
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: Gio is, Bo? He's playing injured. He's taking hits. And
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: he's really doing the Bryce thing, taking hits and keeps
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: on ticking. I want to talk about Carlos Hernandez, their
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: wide receiver. I don't think people realize how good this
• 15:19
  Speaker 2: kid is. He has 603 yards, Bone. That is one
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: less yard receiving than Malachi Toney. You would not know that.
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: I guarantee you the national media that doesn't rank Wake
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: would not know that at all. The kid's an absolute baller, man.
• 15:33
  Speaker 3: He came with, he's a Washington State guy also, right?
• 15:36
  Speaker 3: So that's part of that. People are saying Mrs. Mack
• 15:39
  Speaker 3: called McDonald's and said, make sure this guy gets the
• 15:40
  Speaker 3: healthier option. Did I get the healthier? Is that why?
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: So that would be why I didn't like it as much.
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: So you're saying it wasn't egg-cellent. Finney's got dad jokes
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: well before parenthood.
• 15:57
  Speaker 3: Who knows?
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: His current base, he could be one soon. Oh! Settle down.
• 16:02
  Speaker 5: Man!
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: How about that? Is something happening I haven't been told about?
• 16:08
  Speaker 5: Get a break. Bow.
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: She can bow. Anyway, we got to pay for ourselves.
• 16:14
  Speaker 3: When we come back, it's You're Doing Too Much, our
• 16:16
  Speaker 3: weekly segment of people doing too much, saying too much,
• 16:19
  Speaker 3: whatever the case is. This includes Drake May, Stephen A. Smith,
• 16:24
  Speaker 3: and a woman in Mac's neighborhood. That old trio. Sports Radio,
• 16:29
  Speaker 3: 92.7 WFNZ, and a new Panther bop on the way.
• 16:34
  Speaker 7: I drink too much.
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: I want too much. There we go. Shout out to
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: multiple listeners who suggested that this amazing jam from Dave
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: Matthews Band, Too Much, be our lead in song, Bone,
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: to the You're Doing Too Much segment where we think
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: people have gone overboard. And Bone, we have been accused
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: of doing too much.
• 17:09
  Speaker 5: What?
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: I think it was more you than me talking about
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: Fitty's love life on the air. People believe. if there's
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: too much being done there.
• 17:16
  Speaker 3: I didn't say anything.
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: You could be right. I didn't even say anything about it.
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: You could be right. What did I say about it?
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: The thing about fatherhood's coming soon?
• 17:22
  Speaker 6: Oh, yeah, I did.
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: I didn't say that. But you also were dancing during that.
• 17:26
  Speaker 3: I was.
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: I got excited. We also have a text here. I'm
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: just trying to pump our guy up here.
• 17:31
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think he deserves it. God forbid we respect
• 17:34
  Speaker 3: and love Finney like we all should.
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: We have a text here from Massive Human on the
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: text line that says, Mac, they gave you a real
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: egg instead of a frozen liquid egg, and you're upset
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: about it. McDonald's, you're doing too much right now. Yeah,
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: you're doing too much. Just give me the bacon, egg,
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: and cheese regular. Apparently, it's a frozen liquid egg, but apparently,
• 17:56
  Speaker 2: I like it a lot.
• 17:56
  Speaker 3: Can I say something back about it? I think you
• 17:58
  Speaker 3: might agree on this. The bacon, egg, and cheese from McDonald's.
• 18:03
  Speaker 3: Best fast food breakfast item? I think that's... Like a bowl, yeah.
• 18:08
  Speaker 3: No disrespect to Bojangles. They've got a lot of great stuff.
• 18:10
  Speaker 3: Cajun fillets out there. Cajun fillets out there. There's something
• 18:14
  Speaker 3: that just slaps about that. That's my favorite. I'm a bacon, egg,
• 18:18
  Speaker 3: and cheese sandwich connoisseur. I actually make them a lot
• 18:21
  Speaker 3: on weekends. What did you, man?
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: With the little frozen biscuits I put in the air fryer. Oh,
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: my God.
• 18:26
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: But I think McDonald's, among the fast food, has the best.
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: Bojangles is good, too, though. Um, all right. Anyway, we
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: got to refocus here. Food tangent has swept us away
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: yet again. May I start us off with a, a song?
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: So we just played a song. Yeah. Yeah. Who's doing
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: too much. Oh, I don't think this man's doing enough.
• 18:44
  Speaker 3: Our guy should head bar tall Mac diehard Panther fan
• 18:47
  Speaker 3: on Twitter. Go solve the games when things are going well.
• 18:52
  Speaker 3: Shaqued will drop a new song, much like Carolina Mike
• 18:55
  Speaker 3: will do. Shaqued Bartalmak dropped in a new song. I
• 18:59
  Speaker 3: think he freestyled this one directly after the Lions game
• 19:03
  Speaker 3: while he was in his car. This is The Height
• 19:06
  Speaker 3: of Musical Talent by Shakey B.
• 19:10
  Speaker 6: Mountains, coming up the mountains, the Carolina Panthers will destroy
• 19:17
  Speaker 6: your team.
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: And Bryce....
• 19:22
  Speaker 6: Can smoke you like a Carolina Reaper can. And Brady
• 19:30
  Speaker 6: Thicke will call a play that will make you burn
• 19:35
  Speaker 6: your throat. Sweet Caroline, let's go. The Panthers won again, again, again, again.
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: Cry, Dan Campbell, cry. Oh, oh, oh. pro football. You cry, cry, cry.
• 19:55
  Speaker 3: You can drop it there, Freddie, for now. There's two
• 19:58
  Speaker 3: more minutes to go. Two more minutes? He's definitely doing
• 20:00
  Speaker 3: too much. You're going to have to go to your
• 20:02
  Speaker 3: Spotify's and your whatnot's for that.
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: We're not going to play the whole thing. Shakes, you're
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: doing too much, baby. You're doing too much. How about
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: you get that song down to just like maybe, I
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: don't know, 45 seconds. That means they're winning when Shakes
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: is doing that.
• 20:15
  Speaker 5: Come on, man.
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: You didn't like that? I want Carolina Mike, Shaqued, old collab. Okay, okay.
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: Maybe you'll get that sometime. Maybe you'll get that, party people.
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: I enjoyed it. Let's face it. The number one you're
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: doing too much is Stephen A. Smith. I don't know
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: how many of y'all heard this yesterday or saw this
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: on First Take, but Lane Johnson, who, by the way,
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: has battled mental health issues really the last handful of years,
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: has considered retiring because of them, Bone, decides, yeah, four
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: games in. but decides that he needs to take care
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: of his mental health, take care of family issues, and
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: it's more important than football right now. Stephen A. Smith
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: seemed to want to make light of that. Listen to
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: this from first take.
• 20:55
  Speaker 7: And now the brother sat up there, one of the
• 20:58
  Speaker 7: all-time greatest offensive linemen.
• 21:00
  Speaker 2: And what did he do, Shaq? What did he do, Jordan?
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: He went like this. You know what?
• 21:03
  Speaker 5: I'm going to call it quits.
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: Now he calls it quits. Not before season. Not off season. Oh, no, no, no, no, no.
• 21:09
  Speaker 7: After being subjected to this, he said, life is a
• 21:13
  Speaker 7: little bit too short. I need to focus.
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: What did he say?
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: His mental health?
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: Am I making it up? No, you're right. Did he
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: say that? I'm just being short.
• 21:23
  Speaker 7: Four games in to the 20, to the 2026 season.
• 21:27
  Speaker 7: A dude that has been in the league forever sits
• 21:31
  Speaker 7: back and says, I need to focus on my mental
• 21:35
  Speaker 7: health and as an offensive tackle. Lord, you know it's bad.
• 21:39
  Speaker 7: There's no way.
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: You're undefeated.
• 21:42
  Speaker 7: You're winning football games.
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: You're thriving.
• 21:44
  Speaker 7: Everybody's got Super Bowl in their sights.
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: You walk away.
• 21:47
  Speaker 7: You walk away because it's a very, very, very bad situation.
• 21:53
  Speaker 7: And it doesn't look to be getting any better.
• 21:55
  Speaker 6: And this brother say, hey, my life matters.
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: It's time.
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: I'm going to call it quits.
• 22:03
  Speaker 5: My mental health, my mental.
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: Lord, that's trouble for the Philadelphia Eagles.
• 22:08
  Speaker 7: And everybody in the city of brotherly love knows it.
• 22:12
  Speaker 3: That's as misguided as you're ever going to get in
• 22:16
  Speaker 3: a situation. Seriously.
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: His family members, his mom and dad are sick, by
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: the way, Wayne Johnson. The mental health, he's joking around.
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: The mental health has to do with the Philadelphia Eagles.
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: And if they were 4-0, he's had mental health issues
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: that he has been very open about, by the way.
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: And I respect that openness throughout the years. My daughter, Caitlin,
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: would say, that's cringe. Like, it's like hard to listen to.
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: And if you watch the video, Bone, the looks on
• 22:41
  Speaker 2: Kimberly Martin's face, Jordan Rodgers' face, even Mad Dog Russo
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: looks at him and is like, I don't, I'm not
• 22:50
  Speaker 2: comfortable with that. You know what I mean? Like you
• 22:52
  Speaker 2: can just see they're uncomfortable.
• 22:53
  Speaker 3: I know that he runs the operation there, but feel
• 22:55
  Speaker 3: free to step in at some point guys.
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: Also, I was kind of, I was kind of annoyed.
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: You got no.
• 22:59
  Speaker 3: Problem with anybody. You, you, I know you're kind of
• 23:02
  Speaker 3: letting them go there, but, and then of course he
• 23:05
  Speaker 3: comes back a few minutes later and apologizes. And then
• 23:07
  Speaker 3: he goes on his podcast later and tries to clarify Mac.
• 23:11
  Speaker 3: How many times has Stephen A said something on first
• 23:13
  Speaker 3: take and then got on his own podcast? Finney's got a, Finney,
• 23:16
  Speaker 3: what's your theory on, on Stephen A with that podcast?
• 23:19
  Speaker 2: His podcast exists to apologize for all the messed up
• 23:22
  Speaker 2: things he says on first date. That's not true. The
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: thing is, I don't want the podcast to get enough
• 23:27
  Speaker 2: Stephen A. Smith. It wasn't even an apology, though. It
• 23:30
  Speaker 2: was a you misunderstood what I was saying. I wasn't
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: making light of his mental health issues. And it's like, yes,
• 23:35
  Speaker 2: you are, dude. That's not an apology. That would... As
• 23:39
  Speaker 2: a guy that is married, has been married for over
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: 20 years, and knows apologizing is one of the keys
• 23:44
  Speaker 2: to marriage, Bo, that would not... That's not an apology.
• 23:47
  Speaker 2: I know one when I hear one. You wake up saying,
• 23:49
  Speaker 2: I'm sorry, Matt. I'm sorry. Mrs. Matt, I'm sorry. She's like,
• 23:53
  Speaker 2: for what? All the crap I'm going to do today.
• 23:57
  Speaker 3: And Stephen, you've been around for the whole era of
• 24:01
  Speaker 3: recognizing mental health and the importance and what it means.
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: So.
• 24:05
  Speaker 3: Look, man, I'm sure there's a period of time when
• 24:07
  Speaker 3: we would say stuff about concussions and looking back on
• 24:10
  Speaker 3: it now, it's like, yeah, that's... Read the room, man.
• 24:12
  Speaker 3: Now that we know more, it's like, yeah, that's cringe
• 24:15
  Speaker 3: of what we said. But how do you in 2026...
• 24:18
  Speaker 3: Make light of mental health.
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: Sports or life. That makes no sense to me. Zero sense.
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: Captain Caniac says the name of the podcast needs to
• 24:26
  Speaker 2: be changed to Second Take, where he corrects and apologizes
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: for his first take. All right. That's great. You're doing
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: too much, Stephen A. Chill out, bro. You're doing too much.
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: All right, Boehm, give us another one. Who else is
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: doing too much?
• 24:39
  Speaker 3: Mac, I do believe in his wife, Vince McMahon, the former.
• 24:44
  Speaker 2: Owner of.
• 24:46
  Speaker 3: World Wrestling Entertainment, which was the World Wrestling Federation until
• 24:51
  Speaker 3: the early 2000s. What we're seeing now, Mac, is a
• 24:54
  Speaker 3: lot of people with stories on Vince's behavior over the
• 24:57
  Speaker 3: years because he's no longer in power. So people that
• 25:00
  Speaker 3: dealt with Vince no longer have to worry about fallout, retaliation.
• 25:04
  Speaker 3: So you're getting a lot of stories about the Vince McMahon,
• 25:08
  Speaker 3: not even just the The depravity with the women's stuff.
• 25:11
  Speaker 3: I'm talking about just like human being regular day stuff. Matt,
• 25:15
  Speaker 3: Kevin Lee went on a podcast.
• 25:18
  Speaker 2: Earlier this week.
• 25:19
  Speaker 3: He's the former director of programming for TNN, the Nashville Network,
• 25:25
  Speaker 3: which later became Spike TV. They had the rights to
• 25:27
  Speaker 3: Monday Night Raw in that 99 to 2000 range. So
• 25:32
  Speaker 3: he had to deal with Vince McMahon. I don't know
• 25:34
  Speaker 3: why this meeting took place here, but their first meeting...
• 25:37
  Speaker 3: was at Freedom Hall in Louisville, Kentucky, after a Raw show.
• 25:42
  Speaker 3: They met in the men's room for some reason, and
• 25:45
  Speaker 3: Vince McMahon was at the urinal, and Kevin Lee waited
• 25:48
  Speaker 3: for him. Vince McMahon, who did not like executives, Mac,
• 25:51
  Speaker 3: was at the urinal, then peed on his hands, zipped up,
• 25:55
  Speaker 3: and went over to shake.
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: Mr.
• 25:57
  Speaker 2: Kevin Lee's hands. My God, you're doing it. Yeah, that's
• 26:00
  Speaker 2: a little too much. That's a little too much.
• 26:02
  Speaker 3: That's not doing enough washing your hands, and that's doing
• 26:04
  Speaker 3: a little too much pee-peeing on your hands, Vince McMahon.
• 26:06
  Speaker 3: But what kind of human are you to go pee
• 26:08
  Speaker 3: on your hands and then go shake a man's hand?
• 26:10
  Speaker 3: By the way, a man in power, by the way.
• 26:12
  Speaker 3: I mean, that's good for anybody, but you're dealing with
• 26:15
  Speaker 3: someone that has your future in your hands as well,
• 26:18
  Speaker 3: and you pee.
• 26:18
  Speaker 2: On your hands? You do a pee shake? He can't
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: go for the PHA. That's disgusting. And that is he's
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: the respect he has for others. Bone appears to be
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: very minimal, very freaking minimal. That's the man you done
• 26:32
  Speaker 2: did way too much, my friend. Let's go to he's
• 26:35
  Speaker 2: been doing too much for a long time.
• 26:36
  Speaker 3: Would eat a well done steak with black coffee for
• 26:39
  Speaker 3: breakfast every morning.
• 26:40
  Speaker 2: Okay, that's probably too much, too. They're going on as well.
• 26:42
  Speaker 2: Let's get to Drake May, because Drake May, you're doing
• 26:44
  Speaker 2: too much, baby. You are doing too much. You had
• 26:47
  Speaker 2: a good game on the field. I got research. But
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: now you're making headlines off the field. I don't know
• 26:52
  Speaker 2: whether to yell at his teacher's bone in science and
• 26:55
  Speaker 2: math locally in the schools here in the Charlotte area,
• 26:59
  Speaker 2: or if we make fun of UNC education. I don't
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: know what we do here. But listen to Drake May
• 27:04
  Speaker 2: on WEEI.
• 27:06
  Speaker 5: Let's do our final question for Ask Me Anything.
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: Let's take a listen.
• 27:09
  Speaker 8: Hey, Drake, what a game yesterday, buddy. I had faith
• 27:13
  Speaker 8: in you, and I never lost it. My question for
• 27:15
  Speaker 8: you is this. What wild conspiracy theory out there do
• 27:20
  Speaker 8: you actually kind of secretly believe in?
• 27:23
  Speaker 2: What a planet call that is, by the way. Wow.
• 27:26
  Speaker 2: How about that?
• 27:27
  Speaker 5: Let me try not to get too controversial.
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: Let me think.
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: That's a classic Bostonian on that phone on the end
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: of that other line right there. I don't know about
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: the moon.
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: I think I can see.
• 27:41
  Speaker 5: Back in the day of why we would put on
• 27:44
  Speaker 5: the mask if we went there, but I'm not really
• 27:47
  Speaker 5: sure 200% if we went there or not.
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: I wouldn't say I'm leaning one way or the other.
• 27:51
  Speaker 2: I just know I'm a little bit skeptical. Oh, my Lord.
• 27:54
  Speaker 2: Drake May, you're doing too much, baby. You are doing
• 27:56
  Speaker 2: too much. Just say that the Knicks and the Patrick
• 28:00
  Speaker 2: Ewing lottery was rigged. Just go with that one. But
• 28:02
  Speaker 2: why do we have to go to we never landed
• 28:05
  Speaker 2: on the moon? And by the way... He also said,
• 28:08
  Speaker 2: I'm not sure I'm 200% certain on that. Where are
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: your math teachers at, Drake May? Who taught Drake May
• 28:14
  Speaker 2: math in the Charlotte area? You can't be 200% certain
• 28:16
  Speaker 2: about it.
• 28:17
  Speaker 3: That's going to lead to some UNC text coming in
• 28:19
  Speaker 3: on the text line.
• 28:21
  Speaker 2: Too much, baby. The moon landing, the flat earthers.
• 28:26
  Speaker 3: I mean, I know I've got my Bigfoot conspiracies that
• 28:29
  Speaker 3: I live by. I'm also not fully convinced that dinosaurs
• 28:34
  Speaker 3: were real. But still, the moon landing, though, is just.
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: Out of this world. You ride up there with Drake May, then.
• 28:39
  Speaker 2: Maybe you and Drake should hang out and talk conspiracies.
• 28:41
  Speaker 2: Where'd they go, then? They never came back. They just left. Well, supposedly, Bone,
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: there was this meteor that hit the Earth and made
• 28:49
  Speaker 2: them all go away. Supposedly. There you go, Bone. Yeah, allegedly. Bone,
• 28:54
  Speaker 2: I'm with you. I don't think... The way that we
• 28:57
  Speaker 2: see dinosaurs portrayed. Exactly. I don't know if I buy that.
• 29:01
  Speaker 3: There was something going on, but are they what we
• 29:03
  Speaker 3: thought they were? Like Jurassic Park? Look what Drake Mays done.
• 29:08
  Speaker 3: Now you two are doing too much. I just want
• 29:10
  Speaker 3: one more proof. Shocking bone. Who is with Drake May?
• 29:14
  Speaker 2: Bebop. Bebop. The thing about conspiracies. Speaking of dinosaurs. I
• 29:19
  Speaker 2: just feel like we are in such a day and
• 29:21
  Speaker 2: age where people believe whatever the hell they want. And
• 29:24
  Speaker 2: if they don't want to believe something, they call it
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: fake news. I just, we are in a place where like,
• 29:30
  Speaker 2: I just, the, the truth and facts have left the
• 29:33
  Speaker 2: building completely and people just believe anything and then talk
• 29:36
  Speaker 2: about it and spread, the rumors. I'm over the conspiracies
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: right now. Are you convinced we went to the moon? Yes.
• 29:44
  Speaker 2: We got Bebop and Picante don't believe in it. Listen,
• 29:47
  Speaker 2: y'all do what you want, but I believe that and
• 29:49
  Speaker 2: I don't really give much thought to it. Can I
• 29:53
  Speaker 2: do my neighborhood lady bone doing too much? Please do.
• 29:56
  Speaker 2: Because we're running out of time here. And I may
• 29:58
  Speaker 2: be called a jerk for this one. I may be
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: told I'm doing too much by saying this. I was
• 30:04
  Speaker 2: driving in our neighborhood, like on the main road through
• 30:07
  Speaker 2: our neighborhood that kind of connects all the different like
• 30:09
  Speaker 2: kind of, you know, sub areas or whatever. And I'm
• 30:13
  Speaker 2: driving and this woman comes to a complete stop in
• 30:15
  Speaker 2: the middle of this main road in our neighborhood, complete stop.
• 30:19
  Speaker 2: And I'm like, what are we doing? I look up,
• 30:21
  Speaker 2: she is letting an old lady and her dog cross
• 30:25
  Speaker 2: the street. This isn't even a crosswalk bone. This is
• 30:28
  Speaker 2: just the middle of a road, no crosswalk, no designated area.
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: to walk across. And this woman, we're going about 25
• 30:36
  Speaker 2: miles an hour. And this woman comes to complete stop,
• 30:39
  Speaker 2: makes me sit there behind her while this old lady
• 30:42
  Speaker 2: and her dog crossed the street. Maybe you're in the
• 30:46
  Speaker 2: camp of thinking I'm doing too much and I should
• 30:48
  Speaker 2: shut up and I'm a jerk because it was a
• 30:49
  Speaker 2: poor old lady.
• 30:51
  Speaker 5: Boom.
• 30:52
  Speaker 2: Why can we not just keep driving? And seven seconds later,
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: when our two cars pass, then the woman and her
• 30:59
  Speaker 2: dog can walk across the street. Why did we have
• 31:02
  Speaker 2: to stop in the middle of the street where you
• 31:06
  Speaker 2: are not supposed to stop? I don't get it. Mac.
• 31:09
  Speaker 2: I don't get it. I feel like you're doing too
• 31:11
  Speaker 2: much here. Really?
• 31:12
  Speaker 3: An old lady and a dog. Like, the lady was
• 31:14
  Speaker 3: trying to be nice. What were you in a hurry for?
• 31:17
  Speaker 2: Dude, first of all, you stop in the middle of
• 31:21
  Speaker 2: the street, someone can run into you. Right? Someone's not
• 31:24
  Speaker 2: ready to stop in the middle of the street. Secondly, Bone,
• 31:28
  Speaker 2: it saved her, what, six seconds of her day? Did
• 31:33
  Speaker 2: it really... Two cars drive past, she walks right behind us.
• 31:38
  Speaker 2: Why is it necessary to do that? Every second matters, man.
• 31:42
  Speaker 2: Did it really impact your day that much, though? It
• 31:44
  Speaker 2: held me up, like... Because it took damn grandma about
• 31:48
  Speaker 2: 20 seconds to get across the damn street. She's an
• 31:50
  Speaker 2: old lady with... So it held me up for 20
• 31:53
  Speaker 2: damn seconds. Whereas we could have held her up for
• 31:55
  Speaker 2: six or seven seconds, and then she gets across the street.
• 31:58
  Speaker 2: What were you in a rush for? It's not necessarily
• 32:01
  Speaker 2: a rush. It's like... Who does that? Who stops in
• 32:06
  Speaker 2: the middle of the road to let someone walk across
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: in the middle of the crosswalk? Yes. Is it possible?
• 32:11
  Speaker 5: Crosswalk?
• 32:11
  Speaker 2: Yes. Middle of the road. Are they friends? Maybe she
• 32:13
  Speaker 2: knew her. She said, come on across. No, there's not
• 32:16
  Speaker 2: that going on. I'd like to thank Hawaiian ham for
• 32:19
  Speaker 2: saying Mac is right here. Cause these two guys have
• 32:21
  Speaker 2: turned on me. They have not gotten my back in
• 32:24
  Speaker 2: this situation. Well, I had a situation in my roundabout.
• 32:28
  Speaker 2: I'm not getting your back. You didn't get mine.
• 32:31
  Speaker 3: An old lady driving a tank went left in the roundabout.
• 32:36
  Speaker 2: It nearly hit me head on. Didn't even acknowledge my existence.
• 32:40
  Speaker 3: I had to move over as quick as possible because
• 32:42
  Speaker 3: this lady was just not very fast, but no sense.
• 32:47
  Speaker 2: She was older.
• 32:49
  Speaker 3: But how long has this lady been going the wrong
• 32:51
  Speaker 3: way in roundabouts? I'm very concerned I'm going to see
• 32:53
  Speaker 3: her again, by the way.
• 32:53
  Speaker 2: How does she not know the rules of a roundabout
• 32:56
  Speaker 2: if she's been living for a while? I don't get it.
• 32:59
  Speaker 2: I don't know, man. I do not get it.
• 33:00
  Speaker 3: We weren't going very fast, to be honest, because it's
• 33:02
  Speaker 3: a roundabout. And I do have fear that people aren't
• 33:04
  Speaker 3: paying attention in roundabouts. But that was jarring. That lady's
• 33:07
  Speaker 3: face is seared in my head, by the way. That
• 33:09
  Speaker 3: lady not even acknowledging that she's going the wrong way,
• 33:12
  Speaker 3: by the way. That's a way to cause an accident.
• 33:14
  Speaker 3: How has she not wrecked before if she goes left
• 33:16
  Speaker 3: in roundabouts?
• 33:16
  Speaker 2: Do you not see me darting to the right, lady?
• 33:19
  Speaker 2: By the way, Bone, I would like to thank the
• 33:22
  Speaker 2: legions of individuals on the text line, including Monroe Lara,
• 33:26
  Speaker 2: who said she would flip out on this lady if
• 33:28
  Speaker 2: that happened to her. I appreciate your support. Now, somebody
• 33:32
  Speaker 2: did say I'm a heartless ass, so not everybody's agreeing
• 33:36
  Speaker 2: with me, but I do appreciate the support I'm getting.
• 33:37
  Speaker 3: You're getting some people that said that she should have
• 33:39
  Speaker 3: just been ran over and moved on with the day.
• 33:42
  Speaker 2: I should have went Dale Earnhardt on her, rattled her
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: damn cage. Bump and run, man, like Bristol. Maybe a
• 33:47
  Speaker 2: little boost along the way, a little bit. No hurt her,
• 33:49
  Speaker 2: but a little boost.
• 33:51
  Speaker 3: When we come back, do you want Dan Morgan to
• 33:54
  Speaker 3: be aggressive targeting trades and And if so, what position
• 33:59
  Speaker 3: should he look to add? Sports Radio 92.7.
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: When you're in the middle of a game like that,
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: are you aware you're on a heater in a game
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: like that?
• 34:22
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean... You can feel it. The ball just
• 34:27
  Speaker 5: keeps coming to you. I guess good things just happen.
• 34:33
  Speaker 5: It's kind of in that moment.
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: I know receivers on occasion can get vocal. Do you
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: get vocal when you know you're open and you know
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: you're red hot and you want the football?
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: Nah, man. I just work here.
• 34:52
  Speaker 5: That's That's not my job to tell them.
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: What do you mean you just work there? You're working
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: it there. You don't say anything?
• 35:02
  Speaker 2: No, no, no.
• 35:03
  Speaker 5: I let the coordinators and they got people upstairs in
• 35:07
  Speaker 5: the booth watching the game to let everybody know what's
• 35:11
  Speaker 5: going on down there.
• 35:14
  Speaker 2: There you go. That is TMAC. I absolutely love that clip.
• 35:16
  Speaker 2: Absolutely love that clip. I said yesterday, Bone, that we
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: have two uber-talented receivers who don't have one ounce of
• 35:23
  Speaker 2: Diva in them. In a league, Bone, filled with Diva-wide
• 35:26
  Speaker 2: receivers and wide receivers that want the football and don't
• 35:29
  Speaker 2: care about anything else. Listen to TMAC right there, man.
• 35:32
  Speaker 2: That is— I love that dude. I love his attitude. And
• 35:36
  Speaker 2: we just got good guys over there, man. We've got
• 35:38
  Speaker 2: so much egoless— individual over there on this team. I
• 35:43
  Speaker 2: love it, man.
• 35:44
  Speaker 3: We said it for a long time. Dan Morgan identifies,
• 35:47
  Speaker 3: I do believe, what he needs in a player and
• 35:49
  Speaker 3: a person. Because it's not a coincidence that every time
• 35:52
  Speaker 3: we talk to a guy there or hear a story...
• 35:55
  Speaker 3: They come across or we come out saying, oh, that
• 35:57
  Speaker 3: guy's a good dude. That guy's a good dude. He's
• 35:59
  Speaker 3: a good dude. That's not a coincidence that they're all
• 36:02
  Speaker 3: like that. They are identifying players and humans to make
• 36:06
  Speaker 3: this franchise better. And T-Mac is certainly one of them.
• 36:08
  Speaker 2: I love it, man. Guys like that, man. You talk
• 36:11
  Speaker 2: about culture and atmosphere over there. We don't have a
• 36:14
  Speaker 2: lot of me people over there. Except for Jansen. We
• 36:15
  Speaker 2: really don't. Except for Jansen. Except for Jansen, man. All
• 36:18
  Speaker 2: the attention that dude wants. He's got to tell Canales
• 36:20
  Speaker 2: and every referee what the rules are. I mean, yeah,
• 36:23
  Speaker 2: it's a little exhausting, J. How about you doing too much, J.J.?
• 36:26
  Speaker 2: They have to be careful not to upset the locker
• 36:28
  Speaker 2: room with too many guys like Jansen. Let's have the
• 36:30
  Speaker 2: trade conversation, Bone, because we've got, no, definitely not. We've
• 36:35
  Speaker 2: gotten a lot of texts about, for some reason, Dante
• 36:38
  Speaker 2: Jackson's name comes up. I know he's in his last
• 36:41
  Speaker 2: year of the deal in Pittsburgh. I don't know if
• 36:44
  Speaker 2: there was any substance to this or if this just
• 36:47
  Speaker 2: got floated out on social media and people kind of
• 36:49
  Speaker 2: ran with it. The name that I see come up, Bone,
• 36:53
  Speaker 2: because I'm just going to cut to the chase. The
• 36:55
  Speaker 2: only position I would consider trading for if I was
• 36:58
  Speaker 2: Dan Morgan in terms of giving up, precious draft collateral
• 37:01
  Speaker 2: would be corner.
• 37:02
  Speaker 7: Yes.
• 37:03
  Speaker 2: That's the only position I know. Some of you might
• 37:05
  Speaker 2: make the case for other positions. I see a lot
• 37:07
  Speaker 2: of people saying trade for an edge rusher. Doesn't sound
• 37:10
  Speaker 2: like the Phillips injury is going to be that long.
• 37:12
  Speaker 2: Princely is third and pass rush win rate, by the way,
• 37:15
  Speaker 2: this season, give it up for him on that corner
• 37:18
  Speaker 2: would be the one position. Keyshawn Nixon's a guy at
• 37:20
  Speaker 2: green Bay that comes up when you Google search, like
• 37:23
  Speaker 2: the trade articles about who could be available. It's, Not
• 37:27
  Speaker 2: a lot of guys come up, Bone, at the cornerback position.
• 37:30
  Speaker 2: There are a lot of edges. Guys like Josh Sweat.
• 37:37
  Speaker 2: Who the heck else? Now I'm losing it. Khalil Mack,
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: there are guys that come up at the edge position.
• 37:43
  Speaker 2: I don't really see a ton of corners, but how
• 37:48
  Speaker 2: many positions would you look at and say it's worth
• 37:50
  Speaker 2: Dan Morgan trying to dig up a trade for?
• 37:55
  Speaker 3: Only corner, and that is a certain level of corner
• 37:58
  Speaker 3: because those guys are coming back. It's not a matter
• 38:02
  Speaker 3: of when. We'll see, but they will be back for
• 38:05
  Speaker 3: the stretch run, so... You need someone, Matt, that might
• 38:08
  Speaker 3: not be the highest level corner, but someone that's a
• 38:11
  Speaker 3: level above a Caleb Evans that can at least hold
• 38:14
  Speaker 3: it down until those guys get back. So what can
• 38:18
  Speaker 3: they find there value-wise of a guy that can help
• 38:21
  Speaker 3: out in the meantime?
• 38:22
  Speaker 2: That's what I'm looking for.
• 38:24
  Speaker 3: I'm not looking to go giving up a ton, but
• 38:26
  Speaker 3: we do need somebody here to at least help out.
• 38:30
  Speaker 2: See, here's the thing, too. We had a bye week
• 38:32
  Speaker 2: this week. Mike Jackson was called six to eight weeks.
• 38:37
  Speaker 2: It might be about four more games without Mike Jack.
• 38:40
  Speaker 2: And it might be about... Six, maybe, without J.C.? Yeah. So, like,
• 38:44
  Speaker 2: can you hold it down? We've already talked about the Eagles,
• 38:47
  Speaker 2: the Packers, the Bucs. Some of these teams not looking
• 38:51
  Speaker 2: near as dangerous, Bone, as we thought they would be
• 38:54
  Speaker 2: on offense and just all around. So, yeah, I don't
• 38:59
  Speaker 2: know if we need to go out there, Bone, and
• 39:00
  Speaker 2: get somebody's number one damn corner. you know, and give
• 39:04
  Speaker 2: up a King's ransom. I thought when somebody called KB
• 39:07
  Speaker 2: the other day, and I thought Boney that they put
• 39:10
  Speaker 2: it a good way. They said, is there a Cortland
• 39:13
  Speaker 2: Finnegan out there? Like, is there somebody out there in
• 39:16
  Speaker 2: free age? You remember Cortland Finnegan added to the team
• 39:19
  Speaker 2: in 2015 boat? Oh yeah. Like, is there someone like
• 39:22
  Speaker 2: that out there that you can add to the team
• 39:26
  Speaker 2: that can help for the next month or so? That's
• 39:28
  Speaker 2: a veteran like that. Um, I don't know. Maybe that's
• 39:31
  Speaker 2: another thing we need to search is who like are
• 39:33
  Speaker 2: there any free agent corners that are on the street
• 39:35
  Speaker 2: right now? You know, I know we just brought in
• 39:37
  Speaker 2: Marco Wilson. I don't know if that's the answer.
• 39:39
  Speaker 3: One I looked up recently, and I need to see
• 39:41
  Speaker 3: exactly where he is again because I already forgot, was
• 39:44
  Speaker 3: Kenny Moore, the longtime veteran from the Colts, who's a
• 39:47
  Speaker 3: named guy. He's actually– oh, yeah, that's right. He's on
• 39:50
  Speaker 3: the Eagles right now in the practice squad. So there
• 39:52
  Speaker 3: goes that idea for the immediate. Well, you could add
• 39:54
  Speaker 3: him to– you could snatch someone. You could snatch someone, Bone,
• 39:57
  Speaker 3: from a practice squad. You need to look at practice
• 40:00
  Speaker 3: squads too because you can snatch them and put them
• 40:01
  Speaker 3: on your active roster. That's your Finnegan type of a guy. Hey, man,
• 40:04
  Speaker 3: just come in and, you know, just– up the level
• 40:07
  Speaker 3: for now and then be a depth guy when those
• 40:09
  Speaker 3: guys get back but it's a guy like any more
• 40:11
  Speaker 3: yeah that i'd be looking.
• 40:12
  Speaker 2: At so i wonder if they would i don't know
• 40:13
  Speaker 2: the exact fit but that's a name that i wonder
• 40:15
  Speaker 2: if they would try to snag someone off a practice
• 40:17
  Speaker 2: squad and just promote them right to our we've got
• 40:19
  Speaker 2: two spots on the active roster right now just sitting
• 40:22
  Speaker 2: there so i wonder if they would try to do
• 40:24
  Speaker 2: something like that all things carolina said what did cory
• 40:27
  Speaker 2: thornton do in august that has evans playing ahead of
• 40:31
  Speaker 2: him he didn't have a great preseason um there's you
• 40:35
  Speaker 2: know you can't deny it watching him there were more
• 40:37
  Speaker 2: there were some rough moments for him um i would
• 40:40
  Speaker 2: i would look at shaw smith wade and say you
• 40:42
  Speaker 2: know he he played 17 coverage snaps in the slot
• 40:45
  Speaker 2: bone didn't give up one target anything could you try
• 40:49
  Speaker 2: to play him a little bit outside instead of a
• 40:52
  Speaker 2: caleb evans.
• 40:53
  Speaker 3: I mean certainly anything right now was upgrade i'm not
• 40:56
  Speaker 3: trying to to knock the guy too much. We know
• 40:59
  Speaker 3: how bad the performance was, but really anything is an
• 41:00
  Speaker 3: upgrade over Caleb Evans. You can only ride that out
• 41:03
  Speaker 3: for so long and get away with it, right? You
• 41:05
  Speaker 3: did the other day, but there'll be a game soon,
• 41:07
  Speaker 3: I fear, that, oh, that really got us. I don't want,
• 41:11
  Speaker 3: and I know they're not great, but I've said it repeatedly,
• 41:13
  Speaker 3: I don't want a Caleb Evans playing against the Packers
• 41:16
  Speaker 3: because of the way they play.
• 41:17
  Speaker 2: That could be a complete disaster. I don't like, is
• 41:20
  Speaker 2: a Packers offense more dangerous than what we just faced, though?
• 41:23
  Speaker 2: I feel like that could be a Caleb Evans biggest
• 41:26
  Speaker 2: test that just happened. Yeah, I mean, those receivers and
• 41:29
  Speaker 2: that passing game. I don't want to test it out again, though.
• 41:31
  Speaker 2: I think, yeah, I mean, I just think you're going
• 41:34
  Speaker 2: to play, I mean, again, Caleb Evans should probably be replaced.
• 41:37
  Speaker 2: Whether it's Corey Thornton, Shaw Smith-Wade, Marco Wilson, somebody. You know,
• 41:43
  Speaker 2: I feel like he should severely lose his reps. Do
• 41:47
  Speaker 2: we need to make some big trade? For four to
• 41:51
  Speaker 2: six weeks, when I look at our opponents and say,
• 41:53
  Speaker 2: we can play zone, we can try to do a
• 41:56
  Speaker 2: better job of keeping stuff in front of us, because
• 41:58
  Speaker 2: at Caleb Evans' bone, you don't have to do a lot.
• 42:01
  Speaker 2: Keep stuff in front of you. This dude couldn't even
• 42:03
  Speaker 2: keep stuff in front of him in our zones, man.
• 42:05
  Speaker 3: We are asking the audience that question, courtesy of QC Mechanical,
• 42:08
  Speaker 3: your local HVAC experts. Mac, any thoughts on, I'm looking
• 42:12
  Speaker 3: at the practice squad list right now. The Bengals have
• 42:16
  Speaker 3: a corner trick Weezy Bridges. Any thoughts on Trick Wheezy Bridges?
• 42:21
  Speaker 3: Is that a real person, or did you make him up? No,
• 42:22
  Speaker 3: Trick Wheezy Bridges. I'm not familiar with his game, Boney. Yeah,
• 42:26
  Speaker 3: corner name Trick Wheezy, I'm all in.
• 42:27
  Speaker 2: Not familiar with his game.
• 42:29
  Speaker 3: I gotta be honest, Mac, I don't recognize a whole
• 42:31
  Speaker 3: lot of names on these practice squad lists right now.
• 42:34
  Speaker 2: People are, we gotta clean it up again, Boney. I
• 42:36
  Speaker 2: still had Dante Jackson on the Steelers earlier. No, he's
• 42:39
  Speaker 2: in San Diego now. I meant Chargers. Not San Diego.
• 42:42
  Speaker 2: That's on me, baby. Clean it up, Vinny. Are you
• 42:44
  Speaker 2: not on board? Los Angeles. Yeah, you messed it up, too.
• 42:47
  Speaker 2: Are you not on board, Bone, with the Dante Jackson reunion?
• 42:53
  Speaker 2: I mean, I guess it's fine.
• 42:54
  Speaker 3: I was reading an article that he had one of
• 42:58
  Speaker 3: his best years last year. So he's not far removed
• 43:01
  Speaker 3: from that. So, yeah, I mean, I don't know what
• 43:04
  Speaker 3: he would cost. Yeah, I mean, again, that's fine. That
• 43:07
  Speaker 3: might be the level that we're looking at here. So
• 43:09
  Speaker 3: I have no problem with that. Yeah, I mean, it
• 43:10
  Speaker 3: doesn't excite me. I'm not going to act like it
• 43:12
  Speaker 3: excites me. I mean, this coaching regime. None of the
• 43:14
  Speaker 3: names are really, like, breathtaking and exciting.
• 43:17
  Speaker 2: This coaching regime likes physical corners that come up and
• 43:20
  Speaker 2: hit you. and play a role in the, in the,
• 43:22
  Speaker 2: in the run game too. And I'm not necessarily sure
• 43:24
  Speaker 2: he's going to do that. This regime also likes very
• 43:26
  Speaker 2: tall corners. We talked about that earlier. This just in
• 43:30
  Speaker 2: Dante Jackson is about 50s height. So I just, I
• 43:34
  Speaker 2: don't know if I love that idea, but I definitely think,
• 43:38
  Speaker 2: and maybe Marco Wilson is the guy, maybe the shoe
• 43:40
  Speaker 2: thrower bone is their answer to it for the, for
• 43:43
  Speaker 2: the mean, for the, I think it would be different bone.
• 43:47
  Speaker 2: If those guys were out for the year, If those
• 43:50
  Speaker 2: guys were out for the year, I think I'd be
• 43:51
  Speaker 2: on here saying, Dan Morgan, you've got to literally give
• 43:53
  Speaker 2: up day two picks and get a dude that can play.
• 43:56
  Speaker 2: I don't feel quite that way.
• 43:58
  Speaker 3: Eagles have a DB, a corner on the practice squad
• 44:01
  Speaker 3: named Robert Longerbeam. Are you a Longerbeam guy?
• 44:04
  Speaker 2: What are you putting together, an all-corner name team over there?
• 44:08
  Speaker 2: Major Burns is out there. So let's see here. Tredavious White,
• 44:18
  Speaker 2: Marshawn Lattimore are available. Those dudes are old.
• 44:23
  Speaker 3: We also have our own practice squad guy. He's young,
• 44:25
  Speaker 3: but we've got Devontae Smith also at corner on the
• 44:28
  Speaker 3: practice squad from Notre Dame.
• 44:30
  Speaker 2: More of a slot, kind of a slot guy. Yeah,
• 44:33
  Speaker 2: that's true. But I don't know. I mean, I don't know.
• 44:36
  Speaker 2: I would put him down below the names we've been
• 44:39
  Speaker 2: saying on our squad, but I don't know. I don't know.
• 44:43
  Speaker 2: We'll have to see.
• 44:43
  Speaker 3: I'm sure the Panthers are listening intently of our practice
• 44:46
  Speaker 3: squad suggestions.
• 44:47
  Speaker 2: They take this to heart. I think we can manage.
• 44:50
  Speaker 2: I think we can manage and win the NFC South
• 44:53
  Speaker 2: if we don't make a move. But I'm definitely thinking
• 44:56
  Speaker 2: corner is the position you might want. to look into.
• 44:59
  Speaker 2: And I'm sure Dan is, and maybe Marco Wilson is
• 45:01
  Speaker 2: his answer for right now.
• 45:02
  Speaker 3: Trayvon Diggs is on Seattle's practice squad, a guy that's experienced.
• 45:06
  Speaker 3: I know he struggled at the end of the Cowboys run,
• 45:08
  Speaker 3: but again, you're not going to get someone playing high
• 45:10
  Speaker 3: level of great football. So could he hold it down
• 45:14
  Speaker 3: for a couple of weeks? That's an interesting name. I
• 45:16
  Speaker 3: do think our pass rush is better than last year. Now, again,
• 45:20
  Speaker 3: I'm not saying it's lighting the world on fire.
• 45:22
  Speaker 2: We're like 22nd in pressure percentage and we were dead
• 45:25
  Speaker 2: last last year. I think it's better. And I also
• 45:28
  Speaker 2: think the obvious one is our offense scores more points
• 45:30
  Speaker 2: this year. So, you know what I'm saying? Like a
• 45:34
  Speaker 2: game like the other day, you give up 26 points.
• 45:36
  Speaker 2: I'm getting the feeling, Bone, that's going to win a
• 45:37
  Speaker 2: lot of games, the way our offense is playing, you know?
• 45:40
  Speaker 3: Texter said we already have major burns. His name is
• 45:42
  Speaker 3: Caleb Evans.
• 45:42
  Speaker 2: That's not nice. Stop that right now. Damn, that's funny
• 45:47
  Speaker 2: right there. Did you see the Texter talking about T-Mac?
• 45:50
  Speaker 2: How nice. Mac is right. T-Mac is a great guy.
• 45:53
  Speaker 2: Such a great guy that if somebody stopped in the
• 45:56
  Speaker 2: middle of the street to let an old lady pass,
• 45:58
  Speaker 2: he wouldn't bitch about it the next day. Touche. I'm
• 46:02
  Speaker 2: definitely not as nice as T-Mac.
• 46:04
  Speaker 3: Someone's claiming to be that old lady's husband wanting a
• 46:06
  Speaker 3: piece of Mac right now.
• 46:09
  Speaker 2: Oh, man. When we come.
• 46:10
  Speaker 3: Sounds like a Larry David scene where Mac's not going
• 46:12
  Speaker 3: to have to cross the street and get run over
• 46:13
  Speaker 3: by this old lady. When we come back, Jones Angel,
• 46:16
  Speaker 3: Tar Heel Radio Network, talks about the Notre Dame loss
• 46:20
  Speaker 3: and the chances of the Heels against Pittsburgh.
• 46:21
