Latest / Mac & Bone Podcast / Mac & Bone Hour 3: Are the Panthers WR Being Slept On?
Transcript
- 0:01Speaker 1: There you go, Charles Parker.
- 0:02Speaker 2: That's gonna be music to a lot of mj over
- 0:06Speaker 2: Lebron fans, ears of the Charlotte market. Right there, Lebron
- 0:10Speaker 2: James signs two year, eight billion dollar deal.
- 0:13Speaker 1: It definitely wasn't about the money.
- 0:14Speaker 2: We could say that with the Philadelphia seventy six Ers,
- 0:18Speaker 2: that starting lineup. We're getting ready to do the weekend recap.
- 0:21Speaker 2: We will get to FC getting a huge road wind
- 0:24Speaker 2: that might have been ugly. We are going to get
- 0:27Speaker 2: to Corey Heim. What a young stud this dude is
- 0:31Speaker 2: for the Cup Series. But let's start with Lebron. We
- 0:34Speaker 2: also got to tie it into the Hornets and their
- 0:36Speaker 2: place in the East.
- 0:37Speaker 1: Bony.
- 0:38Speaker 2: What a starting lineup though, that is man, if they
- 0:41Speaker 2: go again, if they can keep em Beid healthy, to
- 0:44Speaker 2: have Maxi and Edgecombe with Lebron, Jalen Brown and Joel Embiid,
- 0:52Speaker 2: Nick's still the favorite in the East.
- 0:54Speaker 1: But the Sixers are pre damn close. Now, don't forget.
- 0:56Speaker 3: They signed twenty point per game guy Anfredy Simons, who's
- 0:59Speaker 3: going to off the bench. They signed Dean Wade from
- 1:02Speaker 3: Cleveland as a role guy. They drafted Filon, They brought
- 1:06Speaker 3: Contavious Caldwell Pope in yesterday. So here's what Philadelphia does.
- 1:11Speaker 3: Even if Embiid magnus his time, or they want to
- 1:14Speaker 3: rest Lebron or just rest Ebid, whatever it may be,
- 1:18Speaker 3: they can now mac load, manage the old guys or
- 1:21Speaker 3: the injured guys like Embiid, and still have a hell
- 1:24Speaker 3: of a year because you've got Maxi, You've got Edgecoe,
- 1:28Speaker 3: We've got Jaylen Brown. They can mix and match throughout
- 1:30Speaker 3: the regular season. They could lose Embid for two weeks
- 1:33Speaker 3: and still have a great foursome. They could lose Lebron
- 1:35Speaker 3: for a couple of weeks and it doesn't matter MAC
- 1:38Speaker 3: in the regular season necessarily. But they can now really
- 1:42Speaker 3: manage the roster and make sure that they're good to
- 1:45Speaker 3: go when they get to the postseason. And once they're
- 1:47Speaker 3: all there, good luck, Yeah, good luck. I'm still that's
- 1:50Speaker 3: a valid point. I'm still skeptical as to what Embiid
- 1:53Speaker 3: will be like by the end of the season. I'm
- 1:56Speaker 3: still skeptical of that Bony, but you do have a
- 1:59Speaker 3: point where they can take it easy on He's the
- 2:01Speaker 3: one I'm worried about. They can they can rest those
- 2:04Speaker 3: guys and not lose a lot of losses per se, Right,
- 2:07Speaker 3: they can still win a lot of games even when
- 2:09Speaker 3: they lose it and beat for they lose it for
- 2:11Speaker 3: a while and they can still go win a lot
- 2:12Speaker 3: of basketball.
- 2:13Speaker 2: Yeah, oh yeah, they got better in that respect, no doubt.
- 2:16Speaker 2: I mean, Jaylen Brown and Lebron in one off season?
- 2:20Speaker 2: Are you freaking kidding me? One thing I noticed he
- 2:22Speaker 2: coach always says the bench is gross.
- 2:24Speaker 1: No it's not.
- 2:25Speaker 3: They've got Simon's and Wade or NBA starters that are
- 2:28Speaker 3: coming off the bench now. Uh in smaller roles. No,
- 2:31Speaker 3: they're they're They're deep beyond.
- 2:33Speaker 2: The start right interior depth, that's issue a question that
- 2:37Speaker 2: may not be done yet.
- 2:38Speaker 1: So we'll see.
- 2:39Speaker 2: I are we seeing sixers bone being born right now?
- 2:44Speaker 2: Just kidd Oh my god, we have straw bone to
- 2:47Speaker 2: the six o'clock and sixers Bone the eight o'clock.
- 2:50Speaker 1: Kidding.
- 2:51Speaker 3: I want to put you in pity city, and that
- 2:53Speaker 3: means I want to take your face and rub in
- 2:55Speaker 3: my arm.
- 2:56Speaker 1: Begon.
- 2:56Speaker 2: I just don't think they're winning the East. I just
- 2:59Speaker 2: think I think is an issue there. But they are
- 3:02Speaker 2: a major threat, there's no doubt about it. I want
- 3:06Speaker 2: to get to the Hornets aspect of this because this
- 3:10Speaker 2: weekend I saw all these different places like cbssports dot
- 3:14Speaker 2: Com ranked their top ten in the East. I was
- 3:19Speaker 2: watching Vson TV and they were putting up the odds
- 3:23Speaker 2: to win the East. The Hornets are not even listed
- 3:27Speaker 2: bone on CBS rankings. It goes ten deep. We are
- 3:29Speaker 2: not there. And then on the Vison was putting up
- 3:33Speaker 2: the the altered the new odds down at Lebron's in
- 3:38Speaker 2: Philly and they're the second choice behind the Knicks. The
- 3:42Speaker 2: Hornets are the eleventh choice in the East. This East
- 3:47Speaker 2: could kick our fanties this year, couldn't it.
- 3:50Speaker 3: It's gonna be bad, and I was I'm optimistic about
- 3:53Speaker 3: the future. But even Chicago Mack with Caleb Wilson, they're
- 3:57Speaker 3: not you know, he's going to be there every night
- 3:59Speaker 3: playing hard. That's gonna be a it's gonna be a
- 4:02Speaker 3: fight against them outside of the Nets in Milwaukee, although
- 4:06Speaker 3: Milwaukee did add quite a lot of NBA guy, so
- 4:09Speaker 3: they may not be a pushover either per se, but
- 4:11Speaker 3: they're just no honest. But outside of really those two,
- 4:14Speaker 3: when it comes to what Vegas is projecting the East
- 4:18Speaker 3: is gonna be, we could do we could have a
- 4:21Speaker 3: good season still for what we think of this organization
- 4:24Speaker 3: and end up right in that eleven spot. It's this
- 4:26Speaker 3: is gonna be It's gonna be a bloodbath in the East.
- 4:29Speaker 2: The Yeah, I mean, I think if we get into
- 4:31Speaker 2: play in, am I surprised, No, if we miss entirely,
- 4:36Speaker 2: am I surprised? No, I'm not because of how deep
- 4:39Speaker 2: this damn East is. And I look at there's two
- 4:45Speaker 2: ways to look at this. The one is bony. Yeah,
- 4:48Speaker 2: it stinks. It does stink. You know that we had
- 4:51Speaker 2: all this momentum and we wanted to see how we
- 4:54Speaker 2: would go if we run that back and we add
- 4:56Speaker 2: something to the core? Is it the worst thing in
- 4:59Speaker 2: the world? Maybe to take a little pause while the
- 5:02Speaker 2: East is loaded like this? Well, Kawhi's probably coming to Toronto.
- 5:06Speaker 2: We'll see how that situation clears up while Lebron's coming
- 5:09Speaker 2: to Philly for a couple of years. Is it the
- 5:12Speaker 2: worst thing in the world, Bone or could we maybe
- 5:15Speaker 2: benefit from pausing for a couple of years then going
- 5:21Speaker 2: all out using assets to acquire pieces and then maybe
- 5:25Speaker 2: some of those teams are dropping back down.
- 5:28Speaker 3: That's been sort of a Twitter thought from Hornet's Twitter
- 5:32Speaker 3: on that. I saw a couple He'll point out, maybe
- 5:34Speaker 3: Jeff Peterson thought, man, even with Mellow, this might be
- 5:38Speaker 3: a difficult year in the Eastern Conference. So I'm going
- 5:41Speaker 3: to let these teams do what they're doing now, sacrifice
- 5:44Speaker 3: a lot of stuff for the future, but we're gonna
- 5:48Speaker 3: be the best set up long term, and not just
- 5:51Speaker 3: for the season or two. We're gonna send up the
- 5:52Speaker 3: Warnets to be up there eventually. Let all those teams
- 5:56Speaker 3: mag go sign all these guys and throw all their
- 5:59Speaker 3: resources at the net. Now we're gonna throw our resources
- 6:02Speaker 3: at the future. So you're liking that thought, yeah, I
- 6:04Speaker 3: think so you can make sense. And again that's not
- 6:06Speaker 3: gonna sit. You're gonna suck for a year or two.
- 6:09Speaker 2: But there's gonna be Hornets fans out there right now
- 6:11Speaker 2: that are angrily typing out a text to me. They
- 6:13Speaker 2: got them thumbs just pumping right now. Max, shut the
- 6:16Speaker 2: hell up, as tam could have won fifty games this year,
- 6:19Speaker 2: like I understand it. And again I wouldn't have made
- 6:22Speaker 2: the LaMelo trade either, but I'm trying to One thing
- 6:25Speaker 2: you have to say is there's a tactful plan to
- 6:28Speaker 2: what Jeff Peterson and this team does, and in the
- 6:31Speaker 2: past there was not always And I'm trying to think
- 6:33Speaker 2: is that part of what they're thinking. We've got to talk.
- 6:37Speaker 2: Did you say we have a tester name pumping thumbs. No,
- 6:39Speaker 2: I'm saying people pump pumping now, that definitely is something
- 6:43Speaker 2: Shoppy can name a text or any minute.
- 6:44Speaker 1: Now. By the way, I am getting coworker.
- 6:48Speaker 2: I am getting harassed for what I said about Nick Scott.
- 6:52Speaker 2: I am not defending Nick Scott's performance against the Rams
- 6:55Speaker 2: in the playoffs. I just want to disassociate myself with
- 6:57Speaker 2: that game. I'm talking about the majority of the season
- 7:00Speaker 2: last year. I just want to throw that out there.
- 7:02Speaker 2: Let's talk about the NASCAR race at the Brickyard yesterday.
- 7:06Speaker 2: Listen it to snoozefest Man. Those cars on that track,
- 7:11Speaker 2: it's so different for what the Indy cars do on
- 7:13Speaker 2: that track. The Indy cars on that track is just epic.
- 7:17Speaker 2: Every year Stock cars well, I shouldn't say that because
- 7:21Speaker 2: there's a strong feeling I know Smoke was texting about yesterday.
- 7:24Speaker 2: Those Infinity cars are more entertaining, but this current Cup
- 7:29Speaker 2: car it's not pretty at all. But I will say
- 7:32Speaker 2: this bone, I think we've got a young star emerging
- 7:35Speaker 2: in this sport, and I think we have two young
- 7:37Speaker 2: talented dudes that flat out hate each other, and I
- 7:41Speaker 2: think we should celebrate those things. Corey Heim can wheel
- 7:44Speaker 2: a race car, that move he made around Hamlet and
- 7:47Speaker 2: then the block that he put on him, and to
- 7:48Speaker 2: have the stones to do it to your boss at
- 7:51Speaker 2: twenty three eleven and not give a damn.
- 7:55Speaker 3: He got something there, man, he got a set on him.
- 7:57Speaker 3: What you know one in San Diego back, I don't
- 8:00Speaker 3: think you were on right after. I think you were.
- 8:02Speaker 3: I think you were cruising right, So we were. I
- 8:04Speaker 3: got back that day and watched the race I want
- 8:06Speaker 3: on the next day. But yeah, but we were talking
- 8:08Speaker 3: about what Junior was saying when he won that race,
- 8:11Speaker 3: that we're seeing the development of a generational talent. And
- 8:15Speaker 3: I did not realize, as a guy that doesn't follow
- 8:17Speaker 3: it as close as you do, I didn't realize that
- 8:20Speaker 3: he was thought of that highly until I heard Junior
- 8:23Speaker 3: talking about him winning that race. And now he wins
- 8:26Speaker 3: two out of three. We could say what we want
- 8:28Speaker 3: about what the brickyard is, but in NASCAR's eyes, he's
- 8:32Speaker 3: won two of their bigger events of the year in
- 8:34Speaker 3: the last three weeks the San Diego you're saying just
- 8:36Speaker 3: because it was this new Yeah, he's what you're saying about.
- 8:40Speaker 2: Listen, and he's show out a showcase event, if you will.
- 8:42Speaker 2: And he's wanted on two different completely type of tracks. Yeah,
- 8:45Speaker 2: this road course, street course and now the brickyard. Can
- 8:49Speaker 2: you accept versatility? He's got too, And bone spoke said it.
- 8:53Speaker 2: There hadn't been a part time driver since nineteen eighty
- 8:55Speaker 2: seven to win two races. This don't normally happened, man,
- 8:59Speaker 2: And now he's in ridiculous Ride twenty three eleven. Those
- 9:03Speaker 2: Toytos are to heat this year. But this dude's got
- 9:05Speaker 2: talent the way he held off Christopher Belt in very
- 9:07Speaker 2: similar Toyota equipment. Like this dude can wheel it. And
- 9:11Speaker 2: the coolest thing about it, Fitty is Carson Josovar is
- 9:15Speaker 2: this other young talent, right, and these two legit hate
- 9:20Speaker 2: each other because what was a truck series right when
- 9:24Speaker 2: him was was going for the title host of ar
- 9:26Speaker 2: Rectum and like this is real, dude, This ain't like
- 9:29Speaker 2: fabricated stuff.
- 9:31Speaker 1: This is real.
- 9:32Speaker 2: So yesterday Carson Josivar was a lap down I think
- 9:36Speaker 2: at the time fit and and time blocked him to
- 9:43Speaker 2: stay in front, keep him a lap down, and jost
- 9:45Speaker 2: of Ar gave him flipped him the bird. Listen to
- 9:49Speaker 2: Corey Him, listen to Corey Heim. Afterwards, be asked about Corsen,
- 9:53Speaker 2: Harris Carson Josivar, who finished ninth, because of course the
- 9:57Speaker 2: media wants these two and they love these two hating
- 9:59Speaker 2: each other O.
- 10:02Speaker 4: Sick. I don't think I heard ever a genre like
- 10:17Speaker 4: He's got a ton of talent and he's gonna win
- 10:19Speaker 4: a lot of races, and I'm focused on myself and
- 10:21Speaker 4: trying to do the same.
- 10:22Speaker 1: Yea, So there you go, man, Uh, it could be fun.
- 10:26Speaker 2: Host of Ar was asked about his middle finger, said,
- 10:28Speaker 2: I was just telling him, I think you're gonna win.
- 10:30Speaker 2: You're gonna finish first. That's the thing too, his host
- 10:33Speaker 2: far as a piece of work, Yes, you know what
- 10:34Speaker 2: I mean. Like, so that could be fun for NASCAR, man,
- 10:38Speaker 2: you know, even if the race itself wasn't very fun.
- 10:41Speaker 3: To expound on what Smoke said about nineteen eighty seven,
- 10:46Speaker 3: there were two drivers that year that did it part
- 10:48Speaker 3: time drivers Dandy Allison, as a rookie, UH stepped in
- 10:52Speaker 3: and ran twenty two of twenty nine races one Rookie
- 10:55Speaker 3: of the Year and Tim Richmond that year cut back
- 10:58Speaker 3: his schedule due to health at year, but still won
- 11:01Speaker 3: a couple of races. So interesting that two guys in
- 11:04Speaker 3: one year in last two ridiculous talents. Man, But this
- 11:07Speaker 3: dude has only won fifteen. He's only run fifteen races.
- 11:10Speaker 3: You're not supposed to have two wins, what they say
- 11:12Speaker 3: on the broadcast. AJ Foyt's the last one to do that.
- 11:15Speaker 3: And he's another all time talent. So yeah, this kid
- 11:18Speaker 3: could be special.
- 11:19Speaker 2: Man. We've got news here, Fitty on Tar Heel Football,
- 11:23Speaker 2: and it's not good news. A matter of fact, Heels
- 11:25Speaker 2: fans are already starting to text in about this and
- 11:28Speaker 2: Heels haters possibly as well.
- 11:30Speaker 1: What's this news? And where are you seeing this at? Fit?
- 11:33Speaker 2: Yeah?
- 11:33Speaker 4: On three Pete Thamil and this was a release from
- 11:36Speaker 4: Carolina itself. Quote, the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill,
- 11:40Speaker 4: has placed Michael Lombardi, general manager for the Carolina football program,
- 11:45Speaker 4: on paid administrative leave, effective immediately.
- 11:49Speaker 1: Mac.
- 11:49Speaker 4: This is four days before they have a training camp.
- 11:52Speaker 4: Fall camp starts Thursday in Chapel Hill ahead of their
- 11:55Speaker 4: opener against TCU and Dublin in Week zero. It's been
- 12:00Speaker 4: a pretty quiet offseason. But the week when it all
- 12:03Speaker 4: really gets started and we get we get we get
- 12:05Speaker 4: ready for college football, Carolina's GM places on administrative.
- 12:09Speaker 1: So what did he and Jordan argue about? Is that
- 12:13Speaker 1: your guest both, I just knows what the.
- 12:15Speaker 4: Heck's going the typewriter somebody's when I heard, who the
- 12:19Speaker 4: heck knows?
- 12:20Speaker 3: Why didn't you get on your your source train there
- 12:22Speaker 3: and see what the what people are saying about this?
- 12:24Speaker 1: Get the scoop on this fit dog.
- 12:28Speaker 2: This is I mean, this is an obvious statement, but
- 12:30Speaker 2: this is the last thing you need. They had things
- 12:33Speaker 2: had finally quieted Downbone on the soap opera front, you
- 12:37Speaker 2: know what I mean, the drama front that we saw
- 12:39Speaker 2: all last year, a lot of it involving Jordan Hudson,
- 12:43Speaker 2: but things and then it was all the different reports
- 12:45Speaker 2: Bone about the discontent behind the scenes and Belichick might
- 12:48Speaker 2: not make it through the season and all that stuff.
- 12:50Speaker 2: Things had actually kind of settled down to where it
- 12:53Speaker 2: was just kind of football over there. And I thought
- 12:55Speaker 2: that was a very critical thing because in New England,
- 12:59Speaker 2: that's that was Belichick would make sure things were just football,
- 13:03Speaker 2: and it was been the opposite of that this first
- 13:05Speaker 2: year there. Well, here we go. Queue the soap opera
- 13:08Speaker 2: music again. Queue the theme for the Damn Young and
- 13:10Speaker 2: the Restless again.
- 13:11Speaker 3: Man to say it never ends, there will be an understatement, right,
- 13:14Speaker 3: there's always something around the corner. Whether it's Hudson, now
- 13:19Speaker 3: it's Lombardi, there's always something happening there that seems to
- 13:24Speaker 3: interrupt the Belichick tenure.
- 13:26Speaker 2: Right seriously, man, So that's brutal. That is brutal for
- 13:30Speaker 2: the tar Heels. That's the last thing fans want to hear.
- 13:32Speaker 2: We'll try to figure out. Pitty will dig around and
- 13:35Speaker 2: see in Flounder, I'm sure well as well, and see
- 13:38Speaker 2: what's going on there.
- 13:39Speaker 1: When we come back.
- 13:40Speaker 3: T Mac says, the wide receiver group is being slept on.
- 13:44Speaker 3: Do we agree? Is it possible this group is better
- 13:47Speaker 3: than we think locally and what people are saying nationally?
- 13:51Speaker 3: Sports Radio ninety two seven w FNZ.
- 13:54Speaker 1: Here you go.
- 13:54Speaker 2: That is t Mac talking about that wide receiver core
- 13:58Speaker 2: thinks it is being left on.
- 14:01Speaker 1: And I think there's two conversations to have here. Bone.
- 14:04Speaker 2: Do we think, like, could this wide receiving core be
- 14:07Speaker 2: better than Panther fans believe it is or could it
- 14:14Speaker 2: be better than the national folks think it is. I
- 14:16Speaker 2: think better than the national folks think it is. Bone,
- 14:19Speaker 2: I think that's easier. Right, We're paying more attention to it.
- 14:22Speaker 2: We're hyped up about Brazzle. You know, I don't know
- 14:27Speaker 2: about Lee Get, but he's had a couple of nice
- 14:29Speaker 2: days of practice and we're following that very closely. Nationally,
- 14:32Speaker 2: there's no doubt Bone that it feels like a low
- 14:35Speaker 2: bar that the receivers have to clear that it always.
- 14:38Speaker 2: It feels like anytimes there's rankings nationally, Bone, they don't
- 14:41Speaker 2: regard our weapons worth a crap.
- 14:43Speaker 1: At all, honestly. Yeah.
- 14:44Speaker 3: I mean if we get plays up to a spot
- 14:46Speaker 3: as the fourth wide out, I mean, that's a former
- 14:50Speaker 3: first round pick that could be your fourth guy, and
- 14:52Speaker 3: then maybe there's a lot of pressure off of him
- 14:54Speaker 3: and it deepens that room. I think locally we're fired up,
- 14:59Speaker 3: especially the first two guys, and then you know, we're
- 15:02Speaker 3: hoping that that brasel becomes that take the top off
- 15:05Speaker 3: the defense guy. I think locally, I don't really hear
- 15:07Speaker 3: many issues with the top end of the Panthers wide
- 15:11Speaker 3: receiver room.
- 15:12Speaker 1: So yeah, you're right.
- 15:13Speaker 3: That's a split discussion of locally we feel one way. Nationally,
- 15:17Speaker 3: does it give team mack at Cocher probably enough runt.
- 15:20Speaker 3: I mean, I'll have to google here some of the
- 15:22Speaker 3: rankings of receivers, but I mean, do we even get
- 15:24Speaker 3: outside the bottom five for those things? No, I mean
- 15:28Speaker 3: we have the rookie of the year at that position,
- 15:30Speaker 3: especially when they cow like overall weapons and the factor
- 15:33Speaker 3: tight ends in two.
- 15:33Speaker 1: Sometimes that doesn't help us out either, not at all.
- 15:35Speaker 2: Here's the thing, bo, because Jalen Cocher. Nationally, there's some
- 15:40Speaker 2: shrewd folks, like I think it was Bleacher Report that
- 15:43Speaker 2: had him literally listed as one of the five most
- 15:45Speaker 2: underrated players in football. But there's a lot of national
- 15:49Speaker 2: media that don't know how good this kid can be,
- 15:52Speaker 2: like because he's been injured, because the overall numbers aren't
- 15:56Speaker 2: that big and that's kind of lame because you saw
- 15:58Speaker 2: him go off on the rams in a playoff game.
- 16:01Speaker 2: But so I'll start right there. I think T mac
- 16:03Speaker 2: is I'll even say T mac on some of these
- 16:06Speaker 2: rankings of wide receivers I thought ended up underrated, like
- 16:10Speaker 2: he was like twenty third in the PFF rankings. There
- 16:12Speaker 2: was one ranking you didn't even get in. And this
- 16:15Speaker 2: dude was eleventh in freaking receiving yards as a rookie
- 16:20Speaker 2: and he's put on twenty pounds back to his college. Wey,
- 16:23Speaker 2: you don't think this dude's going to improve. So I
- 16:25Speaker 2: actually believe the national media bone Hey, I think you
- 16:29Speaker 2: can make a case some of them underrate everybody on
- 16:33Speaker 2: you know, in this receiving well Bill.
- 16:35Speaker 3: Barnwell of ESPN dot com at the end of June,
- 16:39Speaker 3: he did his thing when he ranked the teams based
- 16:42Speaker 3: off wide receivers, tight ends, and running backs, and he
- 16:45Speaker 3: had US twenty eighth in the league of all those guys.
- 16:48Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 16:48Speaker 2: Now, listen, tight ends don't help matters, they don't. Right,
- 16:51Speaker 2: that's running backs either.
- 16:53Speaker 3: He does praise t maca cocher in there, but then
- 16:55Speaker 3: he has US twenty eight because the other spots.
- 16:58Speaker 2: Texter says, this one receiving corps and whether or not
- 17:01Speaker 2: they exceed expectations is gonna come down to two players,
- 17:06Speaker 2: Xavier league Get and Chris Brasel.
- 17:10Speaker 1: Yeah. I think that's fair to say.
- 17:11Speaker 2: I think we feel pretty good in this city, at
- 17:14Speaker 2: least about the top two targets. Those two guys are
- 17:19Speaker 2: uncertainties for different reasons. Right, XL is an uncertainty just
- 17:24Speaker 2: because we have eyeballs and we've been able to watch
- 17:26Speaker 2: football games in which it feels like he's made more
- 17:29Speaker 2: of a negative impact most of the time than a
- 17:31Speaker 2: positive impact. And then Brassel, I think there's still a
- 17:35Speaker 2: skepticism about, oh, he's another Tennessee receiver coming into this league.
- 17:40Speaker 2: Tennessee receivers under Hypell haven't been good. There's also skepticism
- 17:44Speaker 2: does he do more than just run deep?
- 17:47Speaker 1: Although Bone, you and I have talked about it.
- 17:49Speaker 2: You can make an argument if he just makes some
- 17:53Speaker 2: deep plays, takes a safety you.
- 17:55Speaker 3: Know, of me, that thread thread of brasls almost as
- 17:58Speaker 3: important as some of the plays he My man, what's
- 18:00Speaker 3: he gonna do for all the boys underneath? If he
- 18:02Speaker 3: can be that threat and then you got two guys
- 18:04Speaker 3: that can play the slot, and it's very versatile. If
- 18:07Speaker 3: Brazzle becomes an immediate contributor, there's a lot of versatility.
- 18:11Speaker 2: So the backfield underneath too, Your boy Mitch Evans, your
- 18:14Speaker 2: boy Mitchell Palooza, Bone, you see big things for like,
- 18:18Speaker 2: there'll be a lot of underneath room to work.
- 18:20Speaker 1: If Brasel becomes that threat.
- 18:22Speaker 3: We're twenty eighth and ward sharps also, by the way,
- 18:24Speaker 3: for the wide receivers for the what That's what I'm saying,
- 18:26Speaker 3: though tight ends are included there to Okay, so tight
- 18:28Speaker 3: ends probably bring it down a little.
- 18:31Speaker 1: But I don't know where was the text said we're whiners.
- 18:35Speaker 1: I'll pay. I don't know where it is. I'll paraphrase.
- 18:37Speaker 2: Somebody says, here we go again, annual tradition of Mac
- 18:42Speaker 2: whining like a baby that we're not getting enough credit.
- 18:47Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't really, I don't know.
- 18:51Speaker 2: I don't spot any lives there bout CNI mean, I'm
- 18:55Speaker 2: not correct though, sometimes what with my wines Cynthia free
- 18:58Speaker 2: I'm trying to make sure this is dated or not.
- 19:01Speaker 3: Cynthia FreeWin Mac has us Uh oh no, that's the
- 19:04Speaker 3: wrong year, because Robbie, that's Robbie Anderson, Robby Anderson.
- 19:09Speaker 2: I guess we ranked twenty eighth then eighteen? Oh shoot,
- 19:12Speaker 2: how that was? That might have been off the back
- 19:14Speaker 2: to the two thousand yard guys.
- 19:16Speaker 1: Yeah, how did I end up on it? Robbie Anderson?
- 19:19Speaker 2: The year? That's how deev? I'm digging here, this dude said,
- 19:22Speaker 2: I have to be honest. Color me skeptical about the
- 19:25Speaker 2: receiving corps. You guys just said it. There are two
- 19:27Speaker 2: givens on this receiving corps. I think David Moore is
- 19:31Speaker 2: a given. It's just his roles, not sexy, but I
- 19:34Speaker 2: think there will be times bone on third down that
- 19:36Speaker 2: he will move the chains.
- 19:38Speaker 1: With a big catch.
- 19:39Speaker 2: I think, like you said last hour, that just his
- 19:43Speaker 2: you know, tutelage of the young guys, because.
- 19:45Speaker 3: Even the top guys are all young still, so they
- 19:48Speaker 3: need someone in there that you called it the Eudonna's
- 19:51Speaker 3: hazm of the room, and I think that's what I think,
- 19:54Speaker 3: that's what canal it's likes is that hey, they've they've
- 19:56Speaker 3: got a guy that those guys can lean on that's
- 19:58Speaker 3: not a coach and that doesn't matter or we may
- 20:00Speaker 3: not see it from where we stayed, but that does
- 20:03Speaker 3: matter to a football team.
- 20:04Speaker 2: I guess the question has to be asked, like of
- 20:06Speaker 2: all the Panther fans like out there listening, Tea Maac says,
- 20:09Speaker 2: we're being slept on, and we've tried to draw the distinction.
- 20:12Speaker 2: There's you know, two kind of you know, they could
- 20:15Speaker 2: be slept on locally or nationally. Nationally, we seem to
- 20:20Speaker 2: believe that's probably the case. What do y'all expect from
- 20:23Speaker 2: this receiving Corps next year? This Texter says, I am
- 20:28Speaker 2: very hesitant to go all in praising us receiving Corps.
- 20:31Speaker 2: I feel like we all did it last year and
- 20:34Speaker 2: we got halfway through the season and felt like dummies.
- 20:38Speaker 1: What do you think about that? Bone? We were definitely
- 20:41Speaker 1: in last year.
- 20:42Speaker 2: But that was when we thought Feelin was gonna be
- 20:45Speaker 2: on the team. The Renfro thing, I think we all,
- 20:48Speaker 2: in hindsight overrated the addition, right.
- 20:51Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean we were wrong, But again, Renfro went
- 20:55Speaker 3: through a lot. We just misjudged where he was at
- 20:58Speaker 3: the wind was disgruntled, I'd say a little bit. I
- 21:00Speaker 3: don't think we fully counted on him. Maybe not. I
- 21:04Speaker 3: thought he would always be a guy that was, you know,
- 21:07Speaker 3: a team first, that type of player. And apparently he
- 21:10Speaker 3: he didn't want to be here, wanted to go home,
- 21:12Speaker 3: so this and then when he went home, he then
- 21:14Speaker 3: wanted to be traded to a playoff cantell you want
- 21:17Speaker 3: apparently became more difficult than we anticipated.
- 21:20Speaker 1: Know that Renfro.
- 21:22Speaker 3: We thought he could go to the way back with
- 21:24Speaker 3: she'd I feel more comfortable with this group, especially the
- 21:27Speaker 3: first two, than I do with what we saw last year.
- 21:31Speaker 2: This texter says receivers are underrated because they're held back
- 21:34Speaker 2: by Bryce Young. That is CB from the CLT. You
- 21:39Speaker 2: knew that was coming, but this is the guy that
- 21:41Speaker 2: threw the meat the best deep bow in the.
- 21:43Speaker 3: NFL last year. Court pff. Though I have phone must
- 21:46Speaker 3: tax about Bryce. These Bryce robots are I must taxt
- 21:51Speaker 3: hey Bryce comment, I must tax shout me have phone listen.
- 21:54Speaker 2: I'm not going to say Bone that there are quarterbacks
- 21:57Speaker 2: out there that would be better to play with for receiver.
- 21:59Speaker 2: That would be the lunacy to say that, you know,
- 22:04Speaker 2: but I don't know. I feel like cocher t Mac.
- 22:08Speaker 2: I mean, Team Mac won a Rookie of the Year
- 22:09Speaker 2: with Bryce, but he just needs more help. Other guys
- 22:13Speaker 2: bone to where you can't just hone in on tem Mac.
- 22:16Speaker 2: Other guys that can hurt you if you do that.
- 22:19Speaker 2: I just think Coker's got to stay healthy and he's
- 22:21Speaker 2: gonna be that dude.
- 22:21Speaker 3: Man, we have a celebrity email here. Better to be
- 22:26Speaker 3: slept on than slept with Sinsiderably, Mike Rabel.
- 22:31Speaker 2: Mike Rabel's coming up by the way and weekend conclusions. Oh,
- 22:35Speaker 2: Mike Rabel did just one of the most shameless moves
- 22:39Speaker 2: at a press conference. I have ever seen a sports
- 22:42Speaker 2: coach pull off.
- 22:43Speaker 1: Man, are you? And I don't know bone whether I'm
- 22:45Speaker 1: ripping the guy or praising him, I don't know.
- 22:48Speaker 2: I don't. I almost respect it. It's so damn shameless.
- 22:51Speaker 2: So anyway, there's a scene we conclusions.
- 22:54Speaker 3: You don't it's enough, all right, enough with the dog
- 22:58Speaker 3: shout out to Murphy, my puppy.
- 22:59Speaker 2: But well, anyway, I'll get into it during conclusions. We'll
- 23:05Speaker 2: get into it during conclusions. Seven O four five, seven
- 23:08Speaker 2: oh nine six ten.
- 23:09Speaker 1: Uh.
- 23:09Speaker 2: Tim, the sad Jets fan text in and says, be
- 23:14Speaker 2: more specific there, sir, you're not the only one, Sir
- 23:17Speaker 2: quadak like you're the only one. He says, they're just
- 23:20Speaker 2: not sexy wide receivers. Brian says, I agree with the
- 23:25Speaker 2: Texter earlier. The reason why they're slept on is because
- 23:29Speaker 2: Brasel hasn't done anything yet and Excels had two years
- 23:35Speaker 2: and hasn't done anything yet. Yeah, you got to be
- 23:38Speaker 2: deeper than too in this day and age. So I mean,
- 23:40Speaker 2: I guess I understand that who do you have more
- 23:43Speaker 2: faith in Bone, Xcel or Brasel?
- 23:45Speaker 3: This SE's uh, Brasl Brazzle because what you talked about,
- 23:50Speaker 3: Brasel can go out there Mac and the way he plays,
- 23:53Speaker 3: he can Mac not even make necessarily a ton of
- 23:56Speaker 3: catches and still have a bigger impact in XCEL because
- 23:59Speaker 3: of the he plays the game and what he's gonna
- 24:01Speaker 3: be asked to do. So that's why I think Brasel,
- 24:04Speaker 3: what do you think Brazle's presence is huge? What do
- 24:06Speaker 3: you think that having a three point shooter, a knocked
- 24:09Speaker 3: out three point guy hitting space, creating space even if
- 24:12Speaker 3: he's not hitting a ton early when he gets out there,
- 24:16Speaker 3: you got to make sure that you pay attention to him.
- 24:18Speaker 2: That's a good analogy. Who do you you do you
- 24:20Speaker 2: have more faith in Fitti, Brasel or XL? Yeah?
- 24:23Speaker 1: For me, it's Brassel as well.
- 24:24Speaker 4: How many routes macer is he gonna run deep and
- 24:27Speaker 4: then they they're gonna want to push the ball to him,
- 24:29Speaker 4: But how much of that is just gonna to clear
- 24:31Speaker 4: some stuff underneath? For some of the other guys like
- 24:34Speaker 4: XL just doesn't pose that kind of threat. And that
- 24:37Speaker 4: was kind of the thing I was getting to on
- 24:38Speaker 4: Friday when we had our little dust up about Team
- 24:41Speaker 4: Act now being able to make plays down the field.
- 24:43Speaker 4: It's more about like, that's that's Brassle's mo, that's what
- 24:46Speaker 4: he's well, that's that's what they drafted him to do,
- 24:49Speaker 4: where like they drafted him to go clear space to
- 24:52Speaker 4: get tam Ac in those intermediate routes.
- 24:54Speaker 1: They're gonna compliment one another in ways.
- 24:56Speaker 4: I don't think XL has proven or not proven so
- 24:59Speaker 4: far to comp iplement the room.
- 25:01Speaker 2: I just think they have to find a way to
- 25:03Speaker 2: try to play to excel strengths. I think you've got
- 25:06Speaker 2: to get him rumbling on crossers and you've got to
- 25:09Speaker 2: get him the ball with a head of steam.
- 25:11Speaker 1: That's what I think you have to do.
- 25:12Speaker 2: Am I sitting here saying that, I, you know, would
- 25:16Speaker 2: bet my seven cents left in my FanDuel account. You
- 25:19Speaker 2: know that Excel reaches his overs No, I like, and
- 25:23Speaker 2: I see what y'all are saying about Brasel Brazl. Xcel
- 25:27Speaker 2: is in the negative right now in fan currency, right Yes,
- 25:33Speaker 2: he's in the negative. He's got to dig himself out
- 25:35Speaker 2: and prove to us that he can be something that
- 25:37Speaker 2: he hasn't been Brazl's at least starting with a clean slate,
- 25:41Speaker 2: you know. And Brazil does have bone the two greatest
- 25:44Speaker 2: practice catches to ever not.
- 25:46Speaker 1: End up in bounds, you know what I mean. He
- 25:49Speaker 1: does have that.
- 25:49Speaker 3: Going for him, although XCEL can say, hey, if you
- 25:52Speaker 3: don't want to, if you don't want to make plays inbounds,
- 25:55Speaker 3: I got you covered on that one as well.
- 25:57Speaker 1: Mac.
- 25:57Speaker 3: Joe in Raleigh, who seems to be constant pain in
- 26:00Speaker 3: the tuckis whoa what's up with Joe today?
- 26:03Speaker 1: Buddy?
- 26:03Speaker 3: He's questioning us over overvaluing Jayleen Cocher because of he
- 26:10Speaker 3: gets injured in the numbers.
- 26:12Speaker 1: How about this though, but he said he's got to
- 26:14Speaker 1: stay healthy.
- 26:14Speaker 3: Well, Bill Barnwell points out in that article I reference
- 26:17Speaker 3: if he would have played the whole year Mac last
- 26:19Speaker 3: year based off what he did production wise, he willie
- 26:23Speaker 3: p by the way, on the board over here, he's
- 26:25Speaker 3: at thirteen and four now somehow on the wind board.
- 26:28Speaker 2: He's protesting that outside the state and it says it
- 26:31Speaker 2: right here on the board.
- 26:34Speaker 3: I don't know it's on the board. Jaywen Coker. Mac
- 26:36Speaker 3: would have had a thousand yards last year? How many
- 26:38Speaker 3: number two wideouts in the league are also a thousand
- 26:40Speaker 3: yard guys. Potentially, He's just got to stay healthy, right
- 26:44Speaker 3: And I know he did and I know he did it,
- 26:45Speaker 3: but I know.
- 26:46Speaker 2: If people want to say, hey, Ken, he stay healthy.
- 26:49Speaker 2: What's what's up, Willie? I thought we'd be good vibes today,
- 26:52Speaker 2: baby FC with a two nail win on the road.
- 26:54Speaker 1: It's not Wednesday and nine. What are you doing?
- 26:56Speaker 5: I responding to this slender is writing, I see on
- 27:01Speaker 5: this board that I did not say.
- 27:03Speaker 2: I did not say thirteen. I also got tweeted out too,
- 27:06Speaker 2: Who did that? He would simon, I have a guess.
- 27:09Speaker 2: I was here when we came in this morning.
- 27:10Speaker 1: I have a guess I was not.
- 27:12Speaker 3: Here when you got well you didn't give us your
- 27:14Speaker 3: win total because we asked and we just decided we would.
- 27:16Speaker 5: I mean, I am. I am oscillating between nine and ten.
- 27:19Speaker 5: I can't figure out whether I want to know nine
- 27:21Speaker 5: or ten or not. I want I don't well up here,
- 27:23Speaker 5: that's thirteen. I did not say thirty. That's frustrating, though.
- 27:25Speaker 5: Aren't you supposed to be the guy that's way ahead
- 27:27Speaker 5: of us? And no, no, you stop that. I was
- 27:30Speaker 5: one year feedback you're right.
- 27:35Speaker 1: Did I get caught in a lie? I did lie
- 27:38Speaker 1: to you? Did you did lie to me? No one
- 27:40Speaker 1: went with me on it.
- 27:41Speaker 2: I tried to sell it bone that maybe like smoked
- 27:43Speaker 2: it over the weekend or something, and no one got
- 27:45Speaker 2: my back on that does look like.
- 27:47Speaker 1: Very spec definitely not my handwriting.
- 27:49Speaker 5: If if I wrote that, guys, you wouldn't be able
- 27:51Speaker 5: to read it. That's the problem. Because I write cursive.
- 27:55Speaker 5: I have the handwriting of a doctor. See cursive is
- 27:59Speaker 5: something that been like way before you were born.
- 28:02Speaker 2: Speaking of doctors, do you have the handwriting of a
- 28:04Speaker 2: guy that is a lawyer and a doctor?
- 28:06Speaker 1: Ted Grieve and associates everybody. I don't know what.
- 28:08Speaker 2: I don't know how his writing is, but I know
- 28:11Speaker 2: his lawyering's good. Can I say it's pretty? Saying it's Spanish? Yeah,
- 28:14Speaker 2: you're Ted Grieve at when you go Spanish, Willie is amazing.
- 28:17Speaker 1: That's what happens. Man. How many languages you know?
- 28:20Speaker 2: I know parts of three languages, parts of Spanish, Italian,
- 28:24Speaker 2: and English.
- 28:25Speaker 1: Okay, all the Englis should get I'm still working on
- 28:31Speaker 1: How about that? That one took you a while now,
- 28:33Speaker 1: I'm sorry. It's a good dad, joke. So what's the
- 28:35Speaker 1: biggest FC story? The win? And listen. It wasn't pretty
- 28:39Speaker 1: outshot twenty four to three. It wasn't pretty much, but
- 28:42Speaker 1: they end up one on the road since April even
- 28:44Speaker 1: any way they can get it to listen, this is
- 28:45Speaker 1: the back and forth of this league.
- 28:47Speaker 2: Man.
- 28:47Speaker 5: Sometimes you win ugly, sometimes you lose pretty. And it's
- 28:50Speaker 5: better to win ugly than lose pretty. I said it
- 28:52Speaker 5: in the Minute this morning, and I was happy that.
- 28:54Speaker 5: One of the things that the dean said after the game,
- 28:56Speaker 5: he said they played twenty minutes of good football and
- 28:57Speaker 5: seventy minutes of ugly but affective football. I would say
- 29:01Speaker 5: maybe the last half hour was a lot better from them,
- 29:04Speaker 5: because they did have some subs that kind of changed
- 29:06Speaker 5: the game and opened some things up. It wasn't as
- 29:09Speaker 5: singularly ball dominant as Red Bull had been. I think
- 29:12Speaker 5: they played about fifty to fifty the last half hour.
- 29:14Speaker 5: The red card obviously took Red Bull completely out of it,
- 29:17Speaker 5: with an incredibly insane red card from Mamedi, the midfielder
- 29:22Speaker 5: going out there for descent. So from that point on
- 29:24Speaker 5: I think they were all right. Look, I'm not going
- 29:27Speaker 5: to make any bones about a road victory, especially at
- 29:29Speaker 5: a place we've ever won before, So I'm happy about it.
- 29:31Speaker 2: What about the Vargas news, I know there's an ESPN
- 29:34Speaker 2: Brazil report that he could be leaving for that, you know,
- 29:38Speaker 2: brazilient first division team.
- 29:40Speaker 5: These reports have kind of been in the works for
- 29:42Speaker 5: a while, it seems, you know, I'm not going to
- 29:45Speaker 5: sit here and say that I know one hundred percent
- 29:46Speaker 5: that he's played his last game, but the reports have
- 29:49Speaker 5: been kind of oscillating that we're going to have him
- 29:52Speaker 5: play a couple of games on the way back. I
- 29:54Speaker 5: think part of it was they wanted to get Max
- 29:56Speaker 5: Simmons visa sorted. And I don't know if it's necessarily
- 29:59Speaker 5: that's the case yet, but I think that's part of
- 30:01Speaker 5: why we didn't see this go right away before the
- 30:03Speaker 5: start of the resumption to play. I think maybe Vargas
- 30:07Speaker 5: wanted to play a couple of farewell games too as well,
- 30:09Speaker 5: wanted to the bank and wanting against a team that
- 30:11Speaker 5: he's had a lot of success against. But it would
- 30:13Speaker 5: be a big loss, and even Zoran said, you have to,
- 30:17Speaker 5: you know, get rid of guys in order to bring
- 30:19Speaker 5: in guys because they're full up on the rosters, so
- 30:21Speaker 5: if they want to see new faces, some guys have
- 30:23Speaker 5: to go, and I guess fortunately or unfortunately for FC,
- 30:26Speaker 5: it's one of those guys that it makes good sense
- 30:28Speaker 5: from business standpoint, four million dollars for a guy you
- 30:31Speaker 5: pay for a guy you paid two million, four I
- 30:33Speaker 5: mean that's good business.
- 30:34Speaker 1: So we think he stay, will he goes, and a
- 30:37Speaker 1: bot of stays. Now I think it's a level of
- 30:40Speaker 1: the air.
- 30:40Speaker 5: I think I think a lot of it comes down
- 30:42Speaker 5: to what they want to do at the DP spot,
- 30:45Speaker 5: because that's obviously the best way for them to add
- 30:48Speaker 5: somebody if they can find a box to box midfielder
- 30:51Speaker 5: to go in there and be that consistent starter because
- 30:54Speaker 5: it's right now kind of in a musical chairs between
- 30:57Speaker 5: Luca de la Tourre, Jabril Gianni and Bran Bronico, and
- 30:59Speaker 5: that's about next to ash you west. What if they
- 31:01Speaker 5: can find a box to box eight that they can
- 31:03Speaker 5: use as a DP, then I think they sell Abota
- 31:05Speaker 5: and then go get another wing on the on the
- 31:07Speaker 5: right side. But at the same point in time, you know,
- 31:10Speaker 5: they have about a month left to go in this window,
- 31:12Speaker 5: so they can still go and kind of plug and
- 31:13Speaker 5: play in terms of those things. But we always know
- 31:16Speaker 5: that a lot of these deals don't go down until
- 31:18Speaker 5: literally right near the end. So I think they're kind
- 31:21Speaker 5: of with this team now for the next three or
- 31:23Speaker 5: four weeks. The good part about it is you're going
- 31:25Speaker 5: through League's Cup right now after Saturday, so you don't

- 33:45Speaker 2: here on the Monday Bone, take us to your first
- 33:48Speaker 2: weekend conclusion? What do you have?
- 33:50Speaker 1: Mac?
- 33:50Speaker 3: We had Granny Pat part of the round table. U
- 33:53Speaker 3: had the roundtable on Friday's show. Granny sent me a
- 33:57Speaker 3: Facebook message on Friday afternoon, Saturday afternoon. I forget which
- 34:01Speaker 3: day all run together? Granny said, why did I sound
- 34:04Speaker 3: drunk on the air on Friday? Mac?
- 34:08Speaker 1: I would you if you want to analyze this one
- 34:11Speaker 1: for ut please? It's the darknest thing, Granny, Why would
- 34:14Speaker 1: that happen?
- 34:14Speaker 3: I wonder, Grannie. We are going to investigate. It's the
- 34:17Speaker 3: editing tools we have that makes you sound like you're
- 34:20Speaker 3: on moon.
- 34:20Speaker 2: John.
- 34:22Speaker 1: Yeah, it's just it's us, Granny. It's not you.
- 34:25Speaker 2: It's not you, even though every conversation we have with
- 34:28Speaker 2: you ends up taking itself to moonshine.
- 34:31Speaker 3: Grannie, I'm gonna go ahead and guess that there are
- 34:33Speaker 3: conversations you have at times off the air where you
- 34:37Speaker 3: might side a little bit on this.
- 34:40Speaker 1: I'll tell you.
- 34:41Speaker 2: Granny's a star though, Dude, Granny's a star. Like we're
- 34:43Speaker 2: trying to figure out, are there any new Panther fans
- 34:46Speaker 2: that want to be involved in the Panther round tables.
- 34:49Speaker 2: I believe if you pair them with Granny, much like
- 34:52Speaker 2: you said Devin Lloyd will do for Trevin Wallace, I
- 34:55Speaker 2: believe Granny can get the best out of any Panther
- 35:00Speaker 2: on table person with her.
- 35:01Speaker 1: Man, we're hanging on to Granny for dear wife right now.
- 35:06Speaker 2: All right, Granny, Granny, I would say less shine before
- 35:09Speaker 2: your next one, though, if you don't want to sound drunk,
- 35:11Speaker 2: I thought you sounded great.
- 35:12Speaker 1: Though, I've got to call out Mike here.
- 35:15Speaker 2: Man. Mark also sounded like he was on some some stuff,
- 35:17Speaker 2: So what's his excuse? Man, I've got to call out
- 35:21Speaker 2: Mike Rabelbone. This was a shameless move. So shameless. I
- 35:25Speaker 2: might actually respect it. Mike Vrabel. They had a dog
- 35:28Speaker 2: adoption event on Friday, and it coincided with Mike Rabel
- 35:32Speaker 2: doing his Welcome to press conference or welcome to preseason
- 35:36Speaker 2: and training camp press conference. He shows up with an
- 35:39Speaker 2: adorable little puppy wearing Patriots gear at his press conference,
- 35:44Speaker 2: and I mean everybody on social media said the same thing.
- 35:47Speaker 2: Dude took a puppy shield up there, so he was
- 35:50Speaker 2: not grilled about the Diana Rossini stuff.
- 35:53Speaker 1: And it worked.
- 35:54Speaker 2: They didn't ask him anything because I guess they thought
- 35:57Speaker 2: we can't harass this man. He's holding an adorable puppy,
- 36:00Speaker 2: Mike Rabel. That is shameless, but it might be genius
- 36:03Speaker 2: as well, because that big city Boston media.
- 36:06Speaker 1: They they played patty cake with you, just because the
- 36:09Speaker 1: pump was there. Man, you a man. Don't hide behind
- 36:12Speaker 1: your dog. What are you doing?
- 36:14Speaker 2: That dog did not scrape or bite Mike Rabel one time, though.
- 36:18Speaker 2: What if Mike Brabel was holding Murphy up there at
- 36:20Speaker 2: the podium just getting destroyed. This bru the audience can't
- 36:23Speaker 2: seem Wait, this bruise in my arm right now, I'll
- 36:25Speaker 2: tell you you're a battered dog tackling a full back
- 36:29Speaker 2: every day in my life here, oh man, So anyway, Rabel,
- 36:32Speaker 2: I'm onto you, man, you can't do that all sea.
- 36:34Speaker 2: He goes try that all season, but I don't think
- 36:36Speaker 2: that's gonna work for a full season. What if he
- 36:37Speaker 2: just keeps bringing up different dogs? Am I can adoption
- 36:40Speaker 2: here different cute animals to try a different animal each done.
- 36:43Speaker 2: Here's a yack. He's never a yack up there, mag.
- 36:47Speaker 3: I hate to say this, but I am calling for
- 36:49Speaker 3: a show wide boycott of McDonald. You guys in, oh man,
- 36:53Speaker 3: I can't kitty fitty you in had it yesterday. Buy
- 36:57Speaker 3: they come out, well, wait to hear how I was
- 36:58Speaker 3: treated this weekend. I know the narrative is gonna be
- 37:01Speaker 3: bones lazy. Why do you get stuff delivered?
- 37:05Speaker 1: Shut up? I already know that narrative, right, This is
- 37:06Speaker 1: not what this is about Mac. For the sake of
- 37:08Speaker 1: the show.
- 37:09Speaker 3: On Saturday, I said, you know what, I'm going to
- 37:11Speaker 3: order the new honey butter chicken biscuit and the bacon
- 37:15Speaker 3: egg and cheese. I'm gonna sample it from my man Mac.
- 37:18Speaker 3: Then I'm going to text them. I'm gonna let him
- 37:20Speaker 3: know how it is. I'm gonna give the report, and
- 37:22Speaker 3: then it just I was waiting and waiting and waiting,
- 37:26Speaker 3: and then it said, uh, that my order could not
- 37:29Speaker 3: be delivered. I didn't want to put crazy Man back
- 37:32Speaker 3: in his create, so that's why I was getting delivered.
- 37:35Speaker 3: So then I was waiting for the delivery Mac and
- 37:37Speaker 3: it said, your order has been canceled because you picked
- 37:41Speaker 3: it up instead of having it delivered. I said, wait
- 37:43Speaker 3: a minute, how dare they think? I got off my
- 37:46Speaker 3: tooks and went in there and got my order. So
- 37:50Speaker 3: someone went in their MAC and said, I'm Travis. It
- 37:52Speaker 3: took my biscuits. They took my biscuits away from it.
- 37:55Speaker 3: You can't take that on McDonald's, can you. That is
- 37:57Speaker 3: some scoundrel that stole your food. Right, they got a rotect,
- 38:00Speaker 3: the biscuits man. But then yesterday I said, all right,
- 38:04Speaker 3: I'm going to try this again. I went over to
- 38:07Speaker 3: a different food delivery system and I said, I'm going
- 38:10Speaker 3: to get the biscuits. Granted, I got refunded, like it's
- 38:14Speaker 3: all good. But then yesterday I said, I'm gonna before
- 38:16Speaker 3: we go to camp. Yesterday, I'm going to try to
- 38:20Speaker 3: get these things delivered here before I have to get
- 38:23Speaker 3: ready for camp. Right, Well, I was waiting in waiting
- 38:27Speaker 3: and waiting and waiting and waiting my biscuits. Again, Mac
- 38:31Speaker 3: from a different app yesterday did not show up yesterday
- 38:34Speaker 3: refunded by a different app. Ruin driver on this one
- 38:38Speaker 3: stole my biscuits. I'm trying to do work for the
- 38:41Speaker 3: show here. I'm trying to be productive at working on
- 38:45Speaker 3: the weekends here, and I can't get my biscuits.
- 38:47Speaker 1: Man, you had a rough weekend.
- 38:49Speaker 3: Then we need to say no more McDonald's right out
- 38:51Speaker 3: to the figure out how to get these biscuits to me.
- 38:53Speaker 2: I have always wondered about like go we'll go in
- 38:56Speaker 2: and I'll pick up Jersey Mikes right and you can
- 38:59Speaker 2: see all the food just sitting there. Or Chipotle, you know,
- 39:02Speaker 2: we'll go in, they get all the food, just say.
- 39:04Speaker 2: I've always wondered Panera Breads another one, all these places.
- 39:07Speaker 2: I've always wondered, Bone, what's to stop people from just
- 39:09Speaker 2: going in there and saying, I'll grab this order and
- 39:12Speaker 2: walk out.
- 39:14Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't like, do we trust society enough to
- 39:17Speaker 1: make it that accessible? There are services that.
- 39:20Speaker 2: Happened to I guess what I'm saying Bone is, does
- 39:22Speaker 2: that happen to a lot of y'all, because I don't
- 39:24Speaker 2: trust society enough to feel like that doesn't happen a lot.
- 39:28Speaker 1: Maybe not, I don't know.
- 39:29Speaker 3: There's a lot of places in Mooresville where you just
- 39:31Speaker 3: walk in and they don't even question who you.
- 39:33Speaker 1: See what I'm saying.
- 39:34Speaker 2: Are people about that or are people mostly honestly?
- 39:38Speaker 3: One of the sandwich shops that's right at the door,
- 39:40Speaker 3: you can just reach in and grab a bag. I
- 39:43Speaker 3: will say this though, Mac, they don't ask your name either.
- 39:45Speaker 3: You just go in and pick it up. They trust you.
- 39:47Speaker 3: One of the Chinese food restaurants at Morsville, though, one
- 39:50Speaker 3: day they asked me for my ID. They went above,
- 39:52Speaker 3: they went the opposite way. They were not giving up.
- 39:55Speaker 3: They were not giving up the sesame Chicken Mac to anybody.
- 39:58Speaker 1: But there you go. I don't I don't know.
- 40:00Speaker 2: I don't know if people have had bad experiences of that,
- 40:02Speaker 2: but I've always thought that is awful trusting, awful trusting bone.
- 40:06Speaker 2: Darren Gant had a saying that has just stolen some
- 40:11Speaker 2: bow jaguars in his day. Darren Gant has had a
- 40:14Speaker 2: saying that has resonated for years. He would say, Cam
- 40:17Speaker 2: Newton makes people stupid because it would lead to some
- 40:19Speaker 2: ridiculous takes. It would have people acting ridiculous. I believe
- 40:24Speaker 2: we can now apply a new one. Caitlin Clark makes
- 40:27Speaker 2: people stupid. I just I cannot believe Bone. The insanity
- 40:32Speaker 2: and absurdary, the absurdity that surrounds her. I can't believe it.
- 40:36Speaker 2: Whether it's people who are I'm using air quotes here,
- 40:38Speaker 2: fans of hers that when somebody hard fouls her that
- 40:42Speaker 2: she's not even that mad about after the game, they
- 40:45Speaker 2: got to go put racist threats online to that player.
- 40:48Speaker 2: It happens over and over again. It's absurd, seriously ridiculous,
- 40:53Speaker 2: whether it's politicians or political shows using her as a
- 40:57Speaker 2: political tool one way or the other. Whether it is
- 41:00Speaker 2: ridiculous stuff Bone that the USA Today has done in
- 41:03Speaker 2: the last week or so, where Nancy Armour writes this
- 41:06Speaker 2: article about how Caitlyn Clark's actions could have bad ramifications
- 41:11Speaker 2: on black players, and it's like, ok, okay, I understand
- 41:13Speaker 2: what you're saying. Her fans come after them or whatever,
- 41:16Speaker 2: But then you compare it to Emmett Till who was killed,
- 41:21Speaker 2: I just I can't like. And then USA Today reports
- 41:25Speaker 2: Bone the other day, She's skipped the WNBA Orange Carpet
- 41:28Speaker 2: festivities to get her hair done in Iowa. Then the
- 41:32Speaker 2: real story comes out she was getting her hair done
- 41:34Speaker 2: because a charity event was being held in her hometown
- 41:36Speaker 2: in Iowa. I just I'm telling you, does it not apply?
- 41:39Speaker 2: Can we not now say Caitlyn Clark makes people stupid?
- 41:43Speaker 2: Why can't we just enjoy this awesome, fun basketball talent?
- 41:47Speaker 2: Why has it turned into so much nastiness everywhere you
- 41:52Speaker 2: turn surrounding her? It's cray has nothing to do with
- 41:54Speaker 2: her man most of the time. It's crazy for someone
- 41:58Speaker 2: that means so much to us.
- 42:00Speaker 3: It is interesting how the narratives are now that surrounded
- 42:04Speaker 3: It's a wild turn.
- 42:06Speaker 1: I did not see that coming real quick.
- 42:08Speaker 3: By the way, ranch dressing and air conditioner units, apparently,
- 42:12Speaker 3: on a survey, were the two things that the Europeans
- 42:16Speaker 3: were most impressed with when they came over from the
- 42:18Speaker 3: World Cup.
- 42:19Speaker 2: The ranch and the fact that we have AC unit
- 42:21Speaker 2: and they don't have either one of them. No, we
- 42:23Speaker 2: take those two things for granted here, y'all. When we
- 42:26Speaker 2: come back.
