• 1:25
  Speaker 3: without them.

  Speaker 5: Guys, I'm thirty nine years old. I could drop dead tomorrow.

  Speaker 1: to get through this thing. What what? What is wrong
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: with the with the old sj.
• 2:03
  Speaker 5: I just there's five thousand other things I could think
• 2:06
  Speaker 5: of that I'd rather eat than Sloppy Joe's I could.
• 2:08
  Speaker 5: I'd rather have a hot dog. I'd rather have hamburger.
• 2:11
  Speaker 5: I'd rather have chicken nuggets. I'd rather have raisin canes.
• 2:14
  Speaker 5: I'd rather have something. I'd rather have literally anything else
• 2:17
  Speaker 5: on the planet than Sloppy Joke.
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: That's kind of where I'm at is like there's a
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: lot of good, kind of casual like cheap options.
• 2:27
  Speaker 5: That might be the worst use of ground beef you
• 2:29
  Speaker 5: could possibly find not but there's a bad use for
• 2:32
  Speaker 5: ground beef. But that's probably the worst ground beef. Why
• 2:35
  Speaker 5: don't you take that ground beef.
• 2:36
  Speaker 4: Put it into a.
• 2:37
  Speaker 5: Paddy you and put it on a put it in
• 2:38
  Speaker 5: between two.
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: Buns and make it a burger.
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: Shock yeah, back, yeah, shocking, your elitist mindset is above
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: a slappy Joe.
• 2:44
  Speaker 5: Oh shocking that you're on an island with this one.
• 2:47
  Speaker 4: Bone.
• 2:47
  Speaker 5: Both the other two people in there in the building
• 2:49
  Speaker 5: have told you, Yeah, hell no, we won't go sloppy Joe.
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: We won't go sloppy Joe. Do you think I want
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: to be in an eyehold these two.
• 3:01
  Speaker 4: I'm just saying you could just.
• 3:02
  Speaker 5: Join us all in the you know what, there's other things.
• 3:05
  Speaker 4: That's out there.
• 3:05
  Speaker 5: I'm not I'm not looking down on people who eat
• 3:08
  Speaker 5: the mind.
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: With Bee on an island by myself, suretless leighing in
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: a sand or a beach.
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: That is all sloppy Joe. This dude says, I've always
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: known that these three were elitist, and Bone was the
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: real man of the people. So there you go.
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: I'm a man, I'm a I'm here for the common man.
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: Bone the common.
• 3:27
  Speaker 4: Man, the man of the people.
• 3:29
  Speaker 5: The real man of the people is Kyle Bailey eating
• 3:31
  Speaker 5: Sloppy Joe's or eating us spaghetios every day.
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, there were some Kyle Bailey spaghettio references. Well,
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: I'm sure hopefully eat spaghettios.
• 3:38
  Speaker 5: I'd rather eat spaghettios than than man witch or sloppy Joe's.
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: I would eat spoge I would eat spaghettios over it.
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: And there there here's a text that says, if you
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: have ground beef, make a burger or heck makes make
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: pasta and and have the ground beef in with the pasta.
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah those are better uses. Yeah, those are better uses.
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: All right, anyway, we got we cannot post post this.
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: Dude's this dude says, forget the sloppy Joes. We need
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: FC answers. WILLI was not he was not the manager
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: last night, and he wasn't playing. I just want to
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: point that out. But let's talk about it.
• 4:11
  Speaker 4: Pee.
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: That loss frustrated me. The Maxi conversation will be a
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: fun one because my god, you can just see the
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: difference he's going to make, and he made it last night.
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: But let's just start with the opportunity. They kind of blew, like,
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: how much does that bum you out?
• 4:29
  Speaker 5: It definitely does bum me out when you think about
• 4:31
  Speaker 5: the fact that you're literally a penalty away from potentially
• 4:34
  Speaker 5: advancing to a quarterfinal and a tournament that you've only
• 4:37
  Speaker 5: gotten to the quarterfinal in, and you find yourself potentially
• 4:41
  Speaker 5: two victories away from being in the Contact Champions Cup,
• 4:44
  Speaker 5: which is the most prestigious tournament in this in this
• 4:46
  Speaker 5: country outside of you know, your own league play. It's
• 4:50
  Speaker 5: difficult to swallow. I don't have a problem with Archie
• 4:54
  Speaker 5: Goodwin taking the penalty. You know, you guys know that
• 4:56
  Speaker 5: I study this and from the penalty standpoint, you know,
• 5:00
  Speaker 5: of the options that were out there on the field,
• 5:02
  Speaker 5: you know, Archie's was probably the best option.
• 5:05
  Speaker 4: I know.
• 5:05
  Speaker 5: People will say Westy west unfortunately has missed them as well.
• 5:08
  Speaker 5: From Cheryl Let's see and I chronicle all these things
• 5:11
  Speaker 5: that people are going to ask, you know, whether or
• 5:13
  Speaker 5: not whether or not Maxie should have been the option.
• 5:16
  Speaker 5: Maxie is not really a penalty taker, guys. He's somebody
• 5:19
  Speaker 5: who in his career has not taken a lot of penalties,
• 5:23
  Speaker 5: only three in his career.
• 5:24
  Speaker 4: He's two for three.
• 5:26
  Speaker 5: Westy's six to ten in his career taking penalties. Archie Goodwin,
• 5:30
  Speaker 5: you know, coming into the game last night, had made
• 5:32
  Speaker 5: all five of his previous penalties so in his career.
• 5:35
  Speaker 4: So I had no.
• 5:36
  Speaker 5: Problem with Archie taking a penalty. And as Dean said
• 5:39
  Speaker 5: last night, you know, there are worse players to abyss penalties.
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: There are greater players to abyss penalties.
• 5:45
  Speaker 5: It's not something that is the most preferred option. My
• 5:49
  Speaker 5: whole problem is I don't like how we still have
• 5:51
  Speaker 5: these these errors in the back.
• 5:54
  Speaker 4: Like like you could have played them even.
• 5:56
  Speaker 5: I would not have been as angry about playing them even.
• 6:01
  Speaker 4: And winning in penalties.
• 6:02
  Speaker 5: But the fact that you get nothing out of that
• 6:04
  Speaker 5: match last night, when you know, quite frankly, Pachuca did
• 6:08
  Speaker 5: really threaten a lot in the contest and he feels
• 6:11
  Speaker 5: like you gave them that game.
• 6:13
  Speaker 4: That's incredibly disappointing.
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: I think it's a it's a multifaceted conversation because we
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: could talk about the decision on who kicked the ball,
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: and then there's the execution part of the PK. So
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: I do think that you're right based off the numbers,
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: Archie was the right guy. It was just a it
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: was just a terrible PK. So the the right choice,
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: bad execution on the kick.
• 6:35
  Speaker 5: It was a bad I wouldn't say it was a
• 6:36
  Speaker 5: bad penalty.
• 6:37
  Speaker 4: I just think it was for me to.
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: Say it wasn't It was not far, It was not
• 6:40
  Speaker 3: far enough in the corner. He made it too easy
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: for him and a loco. Why did a loco not
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: try to bend that just curl that thing into the
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: left side of the goal instead of bringing back across
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: the goalie Like a Loco's got so much athletic ability,
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: he's a beast. It's like the technical stuff. Man, is
• 7:00
  Speaker 3: he going to get it? You know, the final the
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: final action? Is he going to get that? Ah?
• 7:07
  Speaker 4: Yeah?
• 7:07
  Speaker 5: As the instaid, you created the two best chances in
• 7:10
  Speaker 5: the game, you know, the penalty chance and and the
• 7:12
  Speaker 5: locos right there at the beginning of the second half,
• 7:14
  Speaker 5: and you don't find a way to win.
• 7:16
  Speaker 4: That's that's kind of that's on you.
• 7:18
  Speaker 6: And and you know, I here's the only other thing
• 7:21
  Speaker 6: that I've just has nothing to.
• 7:22
  Speaker 5: Do with the game, but the amount of jeopardy that
• 7:25
  Speaker 5: you put yourself in this tournament where you know you
• 7:27
  Speaker 5: basically have to win all three and get the right
• 7:30
  Speaker 5: goal differential. I mean, you think about the teams that
• 7:33
  Speaker 5: all were on two wins last night, uh, Cincinnati, Columbus
• 7:37
  Speaker 5: and Charlotte. None of them got maximum points last night.
• 7:40
  Speaker 5: It was it was odd to see the jeopardy that
• 7:43
  Speaker 5: this tournament puts you in.
• 7:44
  Speaker 4: And I just I don't know. I I know that
• 7:48
  Speaker 4: they want to do this thing.
• 7:50
  Speaker 5: They want to do this tournament, and I liked the
• 7:52
  Speaker 5: tournament in concept, but the fact that you have a
• 7:56
  Speaker 5: team that basically has won two games and they don't
• 7:58
  Speaker 5: advance in this tournament, it's just I prob'm feel about
• 8:01
  Speaker 5: it just kind of feels wonky. And you could tell that,
• 8:04
  Speaker 5: you know, the only teams that seem to care about
• 8:05
  Speaker 5: it are you know, the teams.
• 8:07
  Speaker 4: With big Mexican fan bases.
• 8:09
  Speaker 5: Like Pub America and others. I just I really wish
• 8:13
  Speaker 5: they could do it in a way where it feels
• 8:14
  Speaker 5: like people can get behind it, because you look at
• 8:16
  Speaker 5: places across the league that no one's going on these games,
• 8:19
  Speaker 5: which I feel bad about because I just I want
• 8:22
  Speaker 5: to see the tournament work.
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: Can't you make it? Can't can't they make it as
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: part of the season ticket package. I know they're trying.
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: It's a different competition, so they're trying to make money
• 8:31
  Speaker 3: off of it or whatever. One of the games is
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: one of the games. One is, okay, one of the three.
• 8:37
  Speaker 5: The Pumas game this year was the one that was
• 8:38
  Speaker 5: part of the season ticket.
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: I mean, I'm just mad about it all, like the
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: pep bl thing, like I don't know exactly what he
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: said to that referee, but apparently like he doesn't have
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: to kill.
• 8:47
  Speaker 4: The referee, how good of a job he did, which was.
• 8:49
  Speaker 3: Terrible, So okay, So he did criticize the referee, was
• 8:52
  Speaker 3: a smart Alecabaut, like, but does the referee have to
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: literally red cardon which means you can't play in a
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: decisive game. Feels like the referee was was a little
• 8:59
  Speaker 3: sense again.
• 9:01
  Speaker 5: Didn't he didn't curse the referee, which again makes me
• 9:03
  Speaker 5: feel like, okay, this guy got.
• 9:04
  Speaker 4: A little bit over sensitive big time. The whole thing,
• 9:07
  Speaker 4: the whole thing is just.
• 9:09
  Speaker 5: I'm just not a fan of of of anything about it.
• 9:12
  Speaker 4: Some glower back the league.
• 9:13
  Speaker 3: Play, let's talk about and that'll be Saturday night against Columbus.
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: This could be a fun one to be at the bank, y'all.
• 9:17
  Speaker 3: And Matt, I wonder if Maxie gets to start in
• 9:20
  Speaker 3: this one, Willie. How excited I mean, I have to
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: tell you, I was really excited to see him. I
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: was really excited about the signing. I thought there might
• 9:29
  Speaker 3: be a ramp up period, right because he hasn't been
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: active in a while. Holy crap, bone set it earlier.
• 9:35
  Speaker 3: The first touch. It was like three guys on Patchuka
• 9:39
  Speaker 3: smell you later, man, like, dude, he is gonna toast
• 9:42
  Speaker 3: him running back in the open field and they can't catch.
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: He gonna toast some fullbacks, isn't he.
• 9:47
  Speaker 4: I mean, he's he's uh, he's incredible. Man.
• 9:50
  Speaker 5: I just even watching him train, you know, the last
• 9:54
  Speaker 5: couple of days since he's been here, you could tell
• 9:56
  Speaker 5: this that after a little bit of sauce that he
• 9:58
  Speaker 5: brings to the table, and we saw it on the
• 10:00
  Speaker 5: game field for.
• 10:01
  Speaker 4: The first time.
• 10:03
  Speaker 5: It is and it is evident that, you know, from
• 10:05
  Speaker 5: a fitness standpoint, that's probably still a little bit that
• 10:08
  Speaker 5: has to happen before he's able to get ninety minutes fit.
• 10:11
  Speaker 5: Maybe the twenty that he got last night can get
• 10:14
  Speaker 5: him to a point where maybe you get him the
• 10:16
  Speaker 5: close to thirty or forty five potentially for his second
• 10:19
  Speaker 5: half appearance against Columbus. That's the only part of it
• 10:22
  Speaker 5: that I think is a little bit upsetting that he
• 10:26
  Speaker 5: isn't further along. But when he was on the field,
• 10:28
  Speaker 5: he was dynamic. I mean, he did enough to win
• 10:30
  Speaker 5: the penalty, and he's somebody who continues to be that creator.
• 10:34
  Speaker 5: And right now, Charlott of c needs those answers because
• 10:38
  Speaker 5: as you saw before, you know, in the seventy minutes
• 10:40
  Speaker 5: that led up to that, you know, when you don't
• 10:42
  Speaker 5: have pet Bl on the pitch, you are struggling to
• 10:44
  Speaker 5: find a creator.
• 10:45
  Speaker 4: So you know, when you get.
• 10:46
  Speaker 6: Both those guys together, I think the real.
• 10:49
  Speaker 5: Thing, that's when the real thing gets unlocked because you're
• 10:52
  Speaker 5: not gonna be able to commit three bodies to Alan
• 10:54
  Speaker 5: said maximum with pet Bl on the pitch. You're just
• 10:56
  Speaker 5: not because if you do that then then your defense
• 10:59
  Speaker 5: is in peril right now.
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: Big, So how about pet maybe playing him in behind
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: a line. I mean, it's just oh, and I think
• 11:05
  Speaker 3: they can get to Klamati unlocked again together, like I
• 11:07
  Speaker 3: think they can create for him because he needs some
• 11:10
  Speaker 3: service so he can get going. All right, I'm looking
• 11:13
  Speaker 3: forward to with Maxi and we'll have to get over
• 11:15
  Speaker 3: last night. As far as as far as the Panthers go, Uh,
• 11:20
  Speaker 3: p man, what did you?
• 11:22
  Speaker 4: Uh?
• 11:23
  Speaker 3: Did you? What were your Do you have any conclusions
• 11:26
  Speaker 3: from the first preseason game, like are you a part
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: of Haines King Nation officially?
• 11:30
  Speaker 5: Willie Well, I think you gotta find a way to
• 11:32
  Speaker 5: get him on the field, obviously.
• 11:34
  Speaker 4: I think that you know we've we've we've talked.
• 11:36
  Speaker 5: A lot about how the Panthers don't really have a
• 11:39
  Speaker 5: legitimate short yardage option on the team.
• 11:43
  Speaker 6: I think Haynes King could.
• 11:44
  Speaker 4: Be that option.
• 11:45
  Speaker 5: I know you can't probably use him like the battering
• 11:48
  Speaker 5: ram that Taysom Hill does is, but I think there
• 11:50
  Speaker 5: are ways to scheme him into situations where you can
• 11:54
  Speaker 5: you can use him, whether it's a third and two
• 11:56
  Speaker 5: or a third one. I think you feel a heck
• 11:58
  Speaker 5: of a lot better with him seeking the football to
• 12:00
  Speaker 5: you do possibly Bryce Young, and also you put in
• 12:03
  Speaker 5: a package of passes for him too to throw the
• 12:05
  Speaker 5: team off and keep the opposition. Honest, I think it's
• 12:07
  Speaker 5: something that is a nice little wrinkle that that Dave
• 12:10
  Speaker 5: can Allson out to the offense. I also like the
• 12:12
  Speaker 5: fact that we saw some guys step up, like Ja
• 12:14
  Speaker 5: seem Reid, who saw a couple of the you know
• 12:17
  Speaker 5: guys out of the backfield. I don't think those guys
• 12:18
  Speaker 5: necessarily have a chance to lay the football team because
• 12:21
  Speaker 5: the Panther running back room is stacked. I feel bad
• 12:23
  Speaker 5: for aj Dillon, the guy who literally is the Charlotte
• 12:26
  Speaker 5: bucket list guy.
• 12:28
  Speaker 4: I don't know if you keep three.
• 12:29
  Speaker 5: Quarterbacks on the team, if he's somebody who you keep
• 12:32
  Speaker 5: on the team because of your ability to want to
• 12:34
  Speaker 5: keep you know, Brooks an eighth chan So I think
• 12:37
  Speaker 5: it's a I think it was a good first preseason game.
• 12:40
  Speaker 5: I don't think it was a perfect first preseason game.
• 12:42
  Speaker 5: I love love that we're going to get to see
• 12:45
  Speaker 5: a lot of the first team offense, or at least
• 12:48
  Speaker 5: more of the first team offense than we've seen in
• 12:50
  Speaker 5: previous preseasons. The fifteen to twenty plays, I said on
• 12:54
  Speaker 5: Twitter earlier this week when we found that out, that's
• 12:57
  Speaker 5: an incredible step forward for this team because one thing
• 13:00
  Speaker 5: that had been frustrating for each of the last two seasons,
• 13:03
  Speaker 5: it felt like the Panthers had started very, very slow,
• 13:05
  Speaker 5: particularly offensively.
• 13:07
  Speaker 6: And I'm not saying that.
• 13:08
  Speaker 4: You attribute that one for one with.
• 13:10
  Speaker 5: The lack of opportunity and reps during the preseason. But
• 13:13
  Speaker 5: I like that they were at least trying something different
• 13:16
  Speaker 5: outside of you know, getting all that work during the
• 13:18
  Speaker 5: joint practices, which I know is very very helpful, and
• 13:21
  Speaker 5: all the coaches said that that's actually more help than
