  Speaker 1: Allow me to reintroduce myself my name.
• 0:10
  Speaker 2: Is i'm will pelagic.
• 0:18
  Speaker 3: Bonus completely taken over finney's love life During the break,
• 0:22
  Speaker 3: Bone is explaining to him what he needs to do
• 0:24
  Speaker 3: for day two, and then he says, if it goes well,
• 0:28
  Speaker 3: then we will think about what to do on day three.
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: Are you just planning this out for the Fit Dog?
• 0:34
  Speaker 4: No.
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: Are you the coach and he's the quarterback?
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: I think that he was talking, because he's now got a,
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: the problem is he's done his Mexican restaurant routine, right?
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: Now he's got to plan day two. This is usually
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: when the relationship ends. Which might be a little more
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: out of his comfort zone, not knowing exactly.
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: What to do.
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: He's like, oh crap, I gotta do another one of these?
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: He said, is it activity time? I said, no, you're
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: one or two dates away, I think, from your whatever activity.
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: I think you gotta go one more meal, whether it's
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: lunch or dinner, still establish the foundation of talking, and
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: then maybe after that, you'll see.
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: Look at Coach Bone, baby. I love Coach.
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: What if you're terrible at the activity, and all of
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: a sudden, she's like, look at this loser, he But
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: that can be funny. Go mini-golfing, and if you're terrible,
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: just laugh at yourself. It shows your ability to laugh
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: at yourself.
• 1:16
  Speaker 5: The problem is with mini-golf, it's not that I'm bad
• 1:19
  Speaker 5: at it.
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: We're not ready for that yet. We need one more meal.
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: We're not ready.
• 1:23
  Speaker 5: Bone's not wrong.
• 1:24
  Speaker 6: It's the competitive juices. Can I hide them? I don't
• 1:27
  Speaker 6: want to show that side of me. But I do
• 1:31
  Speaker 6: see it eventually. She'll just let her see it.
• 1:33
  Speaker 5: And that's probably when she'll pack up and leave.
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: Oh no, we need this wedding. We have so many
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: plans for this wedding.
• 1:39
  Speaker 6: I'm thinking three hours at Chili's is where I'm going
• 1:42
  Speaker 6: for day two.
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: Once you get to date four or five, that's when
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: the bone men and Tara swoop in. And then you
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: double day. We'll be there down the line for you.
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: Tara, one of the great communicators ever. And that is
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: a good sign for you down the line.
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: There you go.
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: I can help you out down the line. He's got
• 2:01
  Speaker 3: your whole life. We got to get there first. So
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: what's up? When do they have kids? Explain that to me, too.
• 2:06
  Speaker 5: Are you jealous?
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: How many kids do they have? Are you jealous because
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: he trusts me more than you?
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: No, I don't know if he does trust you more.
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: He does. I mean, he doesn't want me talking about it.
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: I can certainly see that.
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: I am a little schlep rocky.
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: He knows I know what I'm talking about. All right.
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: You don't live this life by not knowing what you're
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: talking about. Eurovision man says, date four, take her to
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: a Bigfoot festival. Now, first of all. Isn't that what
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: you did? That'd be an advice Bone would give. That
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: wasn't date four. That was dating for a year.
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: Oh, man.
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: Anyway, don't ask me. Bone's at least in the dating game.
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: I have not dated in decades. Like, in terms of, like,
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: not being... Yeah, you've been riding.
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: You are dated.
• 2:49
  Speaker 5: Not being... Outdated.
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: Like, going out to dinner with your wife's one thing, but, like,
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: being out there in the dating scene, thank God I
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: ain't on that crazy thing. But anyway, all right, let's...
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: You've been riding out and out for a while. Let's
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: move along here, Coach. Shall we move along, Love Coach?
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: Let's bring in another man that I'm sure has his
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: own advice for Fitty Marlowe. It is Willie P. The
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: P-Man is in the house. We got to talk Charlotte FC.
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: We got a Panthers joint practice just an hour away.
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: He is Will Palachuk, ladies and gentlemen, and he joins
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: us on the Mac and Bone Show. P-Man, what's going on, baby?
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: What's happening?
• 3:24
  Speaker 4: Well, I'm really glad that the show has turned into
• 3:28
  Speaker 4: how do we get Philly beyond day two? This is fantastic.
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: It's like March Madness, but we need to get him
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: to the Sweet 16. How do we get him out
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: of the first weekend, Willie?
• 3:39
  Speaker 4: Well, here's the thing. I've never been really a big
• 3:42
  Speaker 4: fan of the Mexican date on the first date. I
• 3:45
  Speaker 4: think Mexican is a good maybe second or third date
• 3:47
  Speaker 4: thing because I think this is the problem. And Bowen
• 3:51
  Speaker 4: outlined it perfectly. You're now in a position where you
• 3:53
  Speaker 4: have to make one of two pivots. You're either going
• 3:55
  Speaker 4: to have to go to the evening drinks scenario or
• 3:59
  Speaker 4: you're going to have to go, you know, step up
• 4:01
  Speaker 4: in class and go to, you know, a little bit
• 4:03
  Speaker 4: nicer restaurant. You know, I know Bone mentioned Chili's. I
• 4:06
  Speaker 4: don't know if Chili's is either a parallel move or.
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: Well, that was a Flounder reference to his day.
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: That's what that was.
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Flounder spent three hours at a Chili's and was told,
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: don't call me, don't text me.
• 4:19
  Speaker 4: I was unaware of that.
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: Sorry, Flounder.
• 4:23
  Speaker 4: Sad for Pantano. Sorry about that. What's wrong with a
• 4:28
  Speaker 4: little Texas Roadhouse, maybe? A little Texas Roadhouse scenario.
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: That's another 50 staple. That might not be bad. You
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: better get there early, though. You better get there early.
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: Y'all want to do a 2 o'clock date? I think
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: they start eating dinner at the roadhouse at 2. And
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: don't use your gift cards that you have. Save those
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: for down the line. Don't use those.
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: On a date.
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: Oh, my gosh.
• 4:46
  Speaker 5: Anyway.
• 4:47
  Speaker 4: I don't think we're at activity level yet. Put it
• 4:49
  Speaker 4: that way.
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: So you agree. Okay.
• 4:51
  Speaker 4: Fourth or fifth date.
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: You agree. Fourth or fifth.
• 4:54
  Speaker 4: Bro.
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: Might I suggest bowling?
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: But, okay, so that's for fourth or fifth, though. Axe
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: throwing is another one. Do not do axe throwing. You
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: do not want to kill your date, Vinny. Like, something
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: could go wrong. Or if she gets tired of you,
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: she could throw an axe at you. Like, I would
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: not advise. Mac is not taking his wife axe throwing.
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: I know I'm not the love coach here. Yeah, especially
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: with our life insurance policy. If you've got a life
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: insurance policy with a woman, definitely don't take her axe throwing, y'all.
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 5:21
  Speaker 4: If a date falls in the forest and no one's
• 5:24
  Speaker 4: there to see it, does it actually happen?
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: Oh, man. P-Man, what do you think?
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: We're getting ready to take in today's joint practice against
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: the Texans.
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: And we all can read the tea leaves.
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: It feels like the starters will be held out of
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: the preseason game on Friday. So this is very likely
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: the final work for the ones against another team tonight. um,
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: before the bears game, what are the things like, what
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: are the developments that you would kind of like to,
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: to have happened today for the Panthers in this matchup?
• 5:55
  Speaker 4: Well, I'd like to see, you know, some improved play
• 5:57
  Speaker 4: from the secondary. I know that we, you know, we've
• 5:59
  Speaker 4: seen kind of some, uh, some up and down from
• 6:02
  Speaker 4: them during the preseason. I'd like to see Bryce be efficient. Uh,
• 6:05
  Speaker 4: I know that when it comes to running the football,
• 6:07
  Speaker 4: it's a very hard thing to judge because they're not
• 6:09
  Speaker 4: playing full live. They're If you can have some creases
• 6:14
  Speaker 4: open up, that's nice. But I think just being more
• 6:17
  Speaker 4: efficient in the red zone period defensively and also doing
• 6:21
  Speaker 4: a lot better when it comes to just making sure
• 6:23
  Speaker 4: that you're on time with your routes. I want to
• 6:25
  Speaker 4: see some separation maybe gathered. I found that interesting yesterday
• 6:29
  Speaker 4: that Dave Canales said that they might be on a
• 6:31
  Speaker 4: bit of a crunch when it comes to having wide
• 6:33
  Speaker 4: receivers because of the fact that they're probably only going
• 6:35
  Speaker 4: to be able to keep six. I think a lot
• 6:37
  Speaker 4: of that's due to the fact that they want to
• 6:38
  Speaker 4: keep Haynes King on the 53 and also the situation
• 6:41
  Speaker 4: at running back too. So, I think that I want
• 6:45
  Speaker 4: to be able to see maybe some of these roster
• 6:47
  Speaker 4: decisions become a lot clearer for Dave Canals. And also,
• 6:50
  Speaker 4: I think that the biggest thing is improved linebacker play.
• 6:53
  Speaker 4: Because I think, you know, if there's one major disappointment
• 6:55
  Speaker 4: we've seen throughout the preseason, it's that it doesn't seem
• 6:59
  Speaker 4: like there's a clear-cut linebacker, too, alongside Devin Lloyd. And
• 7:04
  Speaker 4: it's made people believe, or at least think and infer,
• 7:07
  Speaker 4: that maybe the person who's pegged for that position is
• 7:09
  Speaker 4: probably not on this roster right now.
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: Willie, there's a report from a Green Bay writer today
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: about the potential interest the Packers have in JT Sanders
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: in a trade. Does moving off JT and getting a
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: six-round pick, a seventh, whatever it may be, does that
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: make sense to you right now?
• 7:30
  Speaker 4: Well, it depends on how Darren Waller looks, and I
• 7:32
  Speaker 4: think that's also one of the big intriguing spots here
• 7:34
  Speaker 4: coming in today because it'll be the first opportunity to
• 7:36
  Speaker 4: see Darren Waller against somebody other than the Panthers' own self.
• 7:41
  Speaker 4: So that's, I think, kind of the little bit of
• 7:45
  Speaker 4: the apple of the eye right now because of the
• 7:46
  Speaker 4: fact that it does solve two questions. It takes away
• 7:51
  Speaker 4: one of the extra tight ends you have to keep
• 7:52
  Speaker 4: on this roster. I think you can get away with having,
• 7:56
  Speaker 4: if it's... Waller, Kremble, Mitchell Evans, and maybe if you
• 8:02
  Speaker 4: want to keep a fourth and keep Felipe Franks on
• 8:04
  Speaker 4: there for special teams, I think that has you work.
• 8:07
  Speaker 4: Maybe you can get James Mitchell on the practice squad.
• 8:09
  Speaker 4: I think that'd be a solid room. I don't think
• 8:12
  Speaker 4: you downgrade the room at all.
• 8:14
  Speaker 5: It'd be hard to.
• 8:15
  Speaker 4: Give up on a guy like Jatavion Sanders that quickly.
• 8:17
  Speaker 4: But for whatever reason, it just doesn't seem like it's
• 8:20
  Speaker 4: really come around for him. If it's a fifth or
• 8:22
  Speaker 4: sixth round pick, I think that's, you know, that's great
• 8:24
  Speaker 4: cutting your losses type price. You're not going to feel
• 8:28
  Speaker 4: good about the fact that you invested a little bit
• 8:30
  Speaker 4: of a bigger round pick on him in that way.
• 8:32
  Speaker 4: But at least you didn't let him go for nothing.
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: We're talking to Willie P.
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: It's Willie's World, ladies and gentlemen, as is customary on
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: Wednesdays at 9 o'clock here on the Mac and Bone Show. P-Man,
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: we got to talk FC. We had the captain, Ashley Westwood,
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: on earlier, and I loved the response.
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: Listen, the first half.
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: It felt like Charlotte FC didn't create anything.
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: It was a slog.
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: The second half, it felt like that DC goal kind
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: of sparked them and woke them up and lit a
• 9:03
  Speaker 3: fire under them. Two set piece goals, a Pep BL goal.
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: What did you think of the surge in the second
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: half on Saturday?
• 9:12
  Speaker 4: First things first, was there a Westie slam this morning
• 9:15
  Speaker 4: or no? Was he polite?
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: No, very polite. Definitely polite. On his best behavior. He's
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: always a kind lad.
• 9:20
  Speaker 3: He knows if he, he didn't want us to yell
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: a car at him because he only, he knows he's
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: up to his limit again, you know?
• 9:27
  Speaker 4: That's also very true I think that's part of the
• 9:29
  Speaker 4: reason why Dean took him out in the second half
• 9:31
  Speaker 4: on Saturday but I did love the response and it
• 9:36
  Speaker 4: very much was just like right from the conceded goal
• 9:39
  Speaker 4: it felt like they had jolted to life almost kind
• 9:40
  Speaker 4: of like a jump start in a car and I
• 9:43
  Speaker 4: hated it took that long for them to get there
• 9:45
  Speaker 4: but They put forth, I think, a very resilient 30-minute performance.
• 9:50
  Speaker 4: The good side of that is they got the result,
• 9:52
  Speaker 4: and they got the result in an unconventional fashion with
• 9:54
  Speaker 4: two set pieces and more credit and I'd say kudos
• 9:59
  Speaker 4: to Carl. Hooper for just being able to draw these
• 10:02
  Speaker 4: things up and get Pet BL the opportunity to put
• 10:05
  Speaker 4: some service in with some able and willing runners and, and,
• 10:08
  Speaker 4: Having talked to him a couple of times, the Charlotte
• 10:10
  Speaker 4: set-piece coach, he has a really unique way of how
• 10:13
  Speaker 4: he views the game and how we view the set-piece
• 10:16
  Speaker 4: as a weapon. We saw Arsenal do it and get
• 10:19
  Speaker 4: themselves to a Premier League title, basically, as the set-piece
• 10:22
  Speaker 4: kings of the Premier League. And Charlotte FC is definitely
• 10:24
  Speaker 4: up there in the MLS ranks as well. The only
• 10:28
  Speaker 4: concerning thing would be is that you had another breakdown
• 10:31
  Speaker 4: defensively that put Charlotte behind the eight ball. I think
• 10:35
  Speaker 4: it's one of those things where this is not the
• 10:37
  Speaker 4: defensive two years ago where Christian Colina was goalkeeper of
• 10:39
  Speaker 4: the year. This is not the defensive last year when
• 10:41
  Speaker 4: they had the best defensive record at the Eastern Conference.
• 10:44
  Speaker 4: They're going to have to be able to score goals.
• 10:46
  Speaker 4: And so being able to do so unconventionally is a
• 10:49
  Speaker 4: good thing, but it's also, as we sit in this big,
• 10:53
  Speaker 4: very hard way to live.
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: Wesley, a huge fan of set piece training.
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: He told us that he gets so bored he looks
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: up at the clouds while this is going on.
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: No one enjoys it.
• 11:05
  Speaker 4: Kind of like J.J. Jansen when the offense and defense
• 11:08
  Speaker 4: are doing team periods.
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: J.J.
• 11:09
  Speaker 3: Needs to teach Westy some long games. Westy might be
• 11:12
  Speaker 3: able to play them during that time.
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: What do you think?
• 11:15
  Speaker 3: Speaking of soccer, and obviously Atlanta on Saturday night is
• 11:19
  Speaker 3: a rival one and a big one, and, man, we
• 11:21
  Speaker 3: could use another road win. But I have to ask you,
• 11:25
  Speaker 3: what do you think about Chelsea Bone? Chelsea Bone came
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: under fire. Chelsea Bone, eh? Chelsea Bone, eh? Adam Gold
• 11:34
  Speaker 3: was not happy that Bone chose Chelsea as his Premier
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: League team.
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: Talking down to me in many ways.
• 11:39
  Speaker 3: What do you think about Bone's choice?
• 11:42
  Speaker 4: Well, I did find it bemused. I was bemused by
• 11:45
  Speaker 4: the fact that you chose Chelsea in part because of
• 11:49
  Speaker 4: the colors. I mean, that's how many people who don't
• 11:52
  Speaker 4: watch sports pick their edge.
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: And my cousin Chelsea. It's on her. Part of the
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: Boudreaux-Boudreaux line.
• 12:01
  Speaker 4: Is that a fact?
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I have a cousin Chelsea, yeah.
• 12:04
  Speaker 4: It's the Boudreaux Boudreaux as opposed to the Boomchay Boomchay.
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: I get that. I admit that. I didn't pick it
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: based off anything. I didn't have knowledge. I wanted a team.
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: I made a choice.
• 12:13
  Speaker 3: What happened to Spurs, though? They used to be your team.
• 12:15
  Speaker 3: You used to root for Willie's team. Finney, why did
• 12:18
  Speaker 3: we leave Tottenham, Finney?
• 12:19
  Speaker 4: I am sad about that.
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he left your team and went across London. Willie
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: harassed us too much about the teams when they were on.
• 12:25
  Speaker 4: I didn't harass you guys about the team at all.
• 12:28
  Speaker 4: I didn't.
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: We were on your side and we were uncomfortable. Honestly,
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: you don't like being on Willie's side. It's just different.
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: It was just my.
• 12:36
  Speaker 4: Here's my big question. And this, this applies to both
• 12:39
  Speaker 4: bone and to Josh, the big test is going to
• 12:41
  Speaker 4: be when football starts, will you be there in seven 30,
• 12:46
  Speaker 4: you know, on a, on a dreary morning when they
• 12:48
  Speaker 4: got to go, you know, play, I don't know if
• 12:51
  Speaker 4: they had to go play whole city, you know, up
• 12:53
  Speaker 4: there in the, in the North or go to South Hampton,
• 12:56
  Speaker 4: you know, Coventry, you know, where are you going to be?
• 12:59
  Speaker 4: Are you going to be there? Or are you going
• 13:00
  Speaker 4: to be falling asleep?
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: Or are you going to be there the other day
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: when they were in the cottage? I was there.
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: It's the perfect On the weekends, it's perfect because I'm
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: already awake. I'm watching like ALF and whatnot. I can
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: put on, I'm going to put on the game. I'll
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: have game day on.
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: The other TV. Early morning sports, you couldn't find a
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: better time.
• 13:19
  Speaker 3: What about 1230 on a Saturday and college football's on, Bo?
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: That's the big.
• 13:26
  Speaker 4: You also pick too good of a team because Chelsea's
• 13:28
  Speaker 4: going to get a lot of those 1230 kicks. They're
• 13:30
  Speaker 4: going to get some of those Sunday 1130 kicks, too.
• 13:33
  Speaker 4: Those are 10.
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: Those are tested. It's what the VCR is for. Not
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: the VCR. It's what the DVR is for.
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: I didn't DVR the games.
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: No, I'm in. I am in. I bought gear.
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: I'm following all the Chelsea media members.
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: I have the schedule on my phone.
• 13:50
  Speaker 4: I'm in.
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: And plus, they're a fun team to watch. They're undefeated
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: since I joined.
• 13:55
  Speaker 4: I just want to know when it goes in the
• 13:57
  Speaker 4: mothballs next to the Cubs hat. That's all I want
• 13:58
  Speaker 4: to know.
• 13:59
  Speaker 3: How about the Spurs hat? Darren Gant gifted you a
• 14:03
  Speaker 3: Spurs hat. And how many games do they play? It's
• 14:05
  Speaker 3: not that long a season, is it?
• 14:06
  Speaker 4: 38.
• 14:06
  Speaker 3: 38 in the Premier League. Then you've got Carabao Cup.
• 14:10
  Speaker 3: You've got FA Cup.
• 14:12
  Speaker 4: You've got the Energy Drink Cup. You've got the FA Cup.
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: What's it end back about?
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: He doesn't have to worry about Europe, though. I will
• 14:20
  Speaker 3: say that. Does it end in December?
• 14:21
  Speaker 4: No.
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: Oh, man.
• 14:25
  Speaker 4: You're all the way to May.
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: And then the season's August to May.
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: Oh my God. I got to admit, I get, how
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: about this? We check in once a month right now.
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: I'm in.
• 14:35
  Speaker 5: Okay.
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: You're good.
• 14:35
  Speaker 5: Okay.
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: Good start for both of y'all's new squad.
• 14:38
  Speaker 4: You're not at the, I want to start a primary
• 14:40
  Speaker 4: league podcast level. You're at the passing fancy level.
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: Now, when they're playing at the same time as NCAA
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: tournament games, we could have a problem on our hands.
• 14:49
  Speaker 3: Chili's fans are mad at you, Willie. They're mad at
• 14:52
  Speaker 3: you for your Chili's slander, sir. This guy says that
• 14:56
  Speaker 3: is a fine second-date place, Fitty. Don't listen to this
• 15:00
  Speaker 3: uppity dude.
• 15:01
  Speaker 4: I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm very anti-chain restaurant, so you're
• 15:04
  Speaker 4: not going.
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: To win me over.
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: Another texter said, who suggested Texas Roadhouse for a date, Fitty?
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: That is a no-go. What is wrong.
• 15:13
  Speaker 4: With Texas Roadhouse?
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: I love it.
• 15:16
  Speaker 3: That is a McLean family celebratory establishment, sir. Now I'm offended, sir.
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: It should win a James Beard award.
• 15:24
  Speaker 4: If I'm going to go to a chain restaurant, that's
• 15:28
  Speaker 4: probably the one chain restaurant, sit-down restaurant that I will
• 15:30
  Speaker 4: go to is Texas Roadhouse.
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: Willie, fans are also fans. Texans are also mad that
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: you used the word bemused. No grown person under the
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: age of 75 uses the word bemused.
• 15:42
  Speaker 4: At least I know that 50 Cent sang into club.
• 15:45
  Speaker 4: So there's that.
• 15:46
  Speaker 6: Oh, my God.
• 15:47
  Speaker 5: Oh, my God.
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: Dang! He came after Hip Hop Bone.
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: That was a texter that said that. No, I mean,
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: you had to get personal on me. We're on the
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: same side here. We're both soccer.
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: Guys right now.
• 15:57
  Speaker 4: You left Spurs and went to Chelsea. We're not on
• 16:00
  Speaker 4: the same side anymore.
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: Do you think you could beat Bone in a Hip
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: Hop challenge?
• 16:06
  Speaker 4: I don't know if I could beat Bone in a
• 16:07
  Speaker 4: hip-hop challenge, but I do most of the questions at
• 16:09
  Speaker 4: Walker Mail. By the way, Walker Mail did a fantastic
• 16:12
  Speaker 4: job on that. He did.
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: He killed it.
• 16:14
  Speaker 4: A long line of great quiz show hosts, the Mack
• 16:17
  Speaker 4: and Bone show.
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: I thought he used too many obscure songs like 50 Cent.
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: He's not obscure.
• 16:28
  Speaker 4: In the club was like song one on Now That's
• 16:31
  Speaker 4: What I Call Music, volume seven or whatever it was.
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: Was that called music? Oh, Philly. Philly, were you a
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: club guy?
• 16:36
  Speaker 4: I was definitely a club guy. 100%.
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: Oh, I need footage. Did you do that bouncy dance
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: in the club?
• 16:45
  Speaker 4: I mean, they, they, they, they, they love the, uh,
• 16:46
  Speaker 4: the popcorn bounce.
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: All right. Let's cook. Let's go.
• 16:51
  Speaker 3: Popcorn bounce.
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 16:56
  Speaker 3: We need to close this down with your uncultured swine
• 17:00
  Speaker 3: of the week.
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: Who is it? P man.
• 17:02
  Speaker 4: It's the NCAA for still not feeling like they have
• 17:05
  Speaker 4: this all settled with the 50-year guys. And I was
• 17:08
  Speaker 4: having this conversation. We had some moving men in our
• 17:11
  Speaker 4: house yesterday putting some stuff into storage. And they said
• 17:14
  Speaker 4: to me, they said, Willie, you think these guys, these
• 17:16
  Speaker 4: 50-year guys are going to get a chance to play?
• 17:17
  Speaker 4: I said, of course they are because they're going to
• 17:19
  Speaker 4: do the same thing. The formula is set. You go
• 17:23
  Speaker 4: get some backwoods judge, some random counsel, you know, that
• 17:27
  Speaker 4: probably has about the same– Skill level instead is Judge Wapner.
• 17:32
  Speaker 4: You get your court order, you get your hardship, and
• 17:34
  Speaker 4: you're going to have a chance to play. And it's like,
• 17:36
  Speaker 4: are we even playing? Is it the NCAA anymore? Like,
• 17:40
  Speaker 4: is there actually any integrity left in this sport? I
• 17:43
  Speaker 4: understand that once we get to the games and we
• 17:46
  Speaker 4: root for the laundry, it's going to be great. But, man, oh, man,
• 17:50
  Speaker 4: the offseason needs to end like five yesterdays ago. I'm so,
• 17:55
  Speaker 4: so done with all this extra gear garbage that surrounds
• 17:59
  Speaker 4: college athletics. I'm so, so done.
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: There you go. P man preach, baby.
• 18:03
  Speaker 3: I love the way these guys are trying to help
• 18:06
  Speaker 3: Willie move. And Willie's got them in a conversation about
• 18:10
  Speaker 3: fifth year eligibility.
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: Oh, they walk. Okay.
• 18:14
  Speaker 4: Okay. Because this is, this is one of the rare
• 18:17
  Speaker 4: situations where I'm dealing with service people who actually know, like,
• 18:21
  Speaker 4: the guys are a great P1 on the radio station.
• 18:23
  Speaker 4: So he like knows, he's like, oh, I know exactly
• 18:25
  Speaker 4: who you are. And I'm like, so, so we're, we're
• 18:27
  Speaker 4: talking about sports.
• 18:28
  Speaker 3: I'm just making sure you're not like, you know, just
• 18:30
  Speaker 3: doing your own radio show for the poor guy while
• 18:32
  Speaker 3: he tries to box stuff up.
• 18:33
  Speaker 4: No, I'm not. No, I was, I was, I was
• 18:35
  Speaker 4: sitting at my table, you know, doing my, my Charlotte
• 18:37
  Speaker 4: FC boards and, you know, he's rapping Peyton's and I'm
• 18:40
  Speaker 4: sitting there and he's saying, Hey, Willie, what do you
• 18:42
  Speaker 4: think about, you know, what do you think about clubs?
• 18:44
  Speaker 4: What do you think about this? And so it was like, okay, fine, whatever.
• 18:47
  Speaker 4: I can, I can, I can play ball a little bit.
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: All right, there you go. Tecate says, Willie's still a
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: club guy. The Mickey Mouse Club. By the way, I think, oh,
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: come on now.
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: Thick Fire says, Willie's definitely a radio edits hip-hop guy only.
• 19:01
  Speaker 3: No cuss words. We are, by the way, Bone, I
• 19:03
  Speaker 3: don't know if you've seen the text. I did not
• 19:05
  Speaker 3: know about this headline about Texas Roadhouse.
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: I had no idea. What they're accused of doing.
• 19:10
  Speaker 3: We may need to not send Fitty there, and I
• 19:12
  Speaker 3: may need to find a new McLean family.
• 19:15
  Speaker 2: Oh, you called it bad? Celebration.
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 19:17
  Speaker 3: I mean, again, it's not good. Again, it's definitely not
• 19:19
  Speaker 3: good what they're alleged to have done. But anyway, we can't.
• 19:24
  Speaker 4: We don't know what happened.
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: Look it up. Look it up. Doesn't sound good. All right, P-Man,
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: you're the man, though, baby.
• 19:30
  Speaker 4: All right, I'll have to find a new place to
• 19:32
  Speaker 4: get steak.
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: There you go. It's B-Man. Anyway, all right.
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: Isn't it funny that the high-class foodie Mac now has
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: to find a new place other than Texas Roadhouse?
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: Unbelievable.
• 19:42
  Speaker 3: Every chain sucks except Texas. They made an exception for
• 19:44
  Speaker 3: the Roadhouse, man. And now they're in trouble, allegedly.
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: Oh, man.
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: All right, when we come back on the Mac and
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: Bone Show, that was fun. Well, on the way back,
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: a national analyst says he believes in BY9 more than
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: CJ Stroud. But are we with the best Panther fans?
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: Sports Radio, 92.7 WFNZ.
• 20:23
  Speaker 3: I love CJ Trout.
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: I'm going to lean towards Bryce Young.
• 20:25
  Speaker 7: And I say this because when you look at what
• 20:28
  Speaker 7: Bryce Young did, he was second in the NFL when
• 20:30
  Speaker 7: it came to fourth quarter comebacks, wins in fourth quarter
• 20:33
  Speaker 7: and overtime.
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: He had six.
• 20:34
  Speaker 7: I think the only person that had more was Bo Nix.
• 20:36
  Speaker 7: He literally at times put that team on his back
• 20:39
  Speaker 7: late in games. Let's not forget in the playoff game,
• 20:41
  Speaker 7: they didn't lose that game because of Bryce Young. They
• 20:43
  Speaker 7: lost it because the MVP, Matt Stafford, went nuclear at
• 20:46
  Speaker 7: the end of the game and decided I'm going to
• 20:48
  Speaker 7: will my team to victory. Bryce Young literally almost talked
• 20:51
  Speaker 7: about the team that everybody thought was the best team
• 20:53
  Speaker 7: in the NFL. So I would say from what we've
• 20:56
  Speaker 7: seen based off of last year alone, I want to
• 20:58
  Speaker 7: preface that, based off of last year alone, a little
• 21:01
  Speaker 7: bit more faith in Bryce Young.
• 21:03
  Speaker 3: How about that one? Dolly Parton, the dulcet tones of
• 21:07
  Speaker 3: awesome Dolly Parton. Rest in peace to an absolute queen
• 21:10
  Speaker 3: and an absolute icon. And Bone said it best. This
• 21:15
  Speaker 3: woman is universally beloved. You can't find anybody anywhere that
• 21:20
  Speaker 3: doesn't have great things to say about Dolly. So that
• 21:23
  Speaker 3: was certainly sad news yesterday. Crossed into all walks of life.
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: Big time. It's amazing for a country artist to do that.
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: Because not everyone's going to like the genre or maybe,
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: you know, whatever.
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: But the fact that she did that, it's amazing. No
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: doubt about it.
• 21:37
  Speaker 5: You know what?
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: To say there'll never be another, we often say that.
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: But I think for her, that's true.
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: Though, right? I don't disagree, man. You know what? I'm
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: thought of.
• 21:47
  Speaker 3: With Dolly Parton, I'm reminded of a quote from the
• 21:50
  Speaker 3: movie Ferris Bueller, and I can't quote it exactly. But
• 21:53
  Speaker 3: do you remember when the woman, is it the receptionist
• 21:56
  Speaker 3: for the principal? When she talks about all the different
• 22:01
  Speaker 3: groups of kids that like Ferris Bueller?
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: They think he's a righteous dude. And it's like, that's
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: what Dolly Parton, every, you know, Eminem.
• 22:09
  Speaker 3: Eminem tweeted out last night a story of a letter
• 22:13
  Speaker 3: she sent to him telling her how impressed she was
• 22:16
  Speaker 3: with him, how she hopes to meet him one day.
• 22:18
  Speaker 3: That's the thing. It's people from all types of music,
• 22:21
  Speaker 3: different parts of life. She stood up and supported and
• 22:25
  Speaker 3: helped out people from all different backgrounds.
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: So anyway, she's just unbelievable.
• 22:32
  Speaker 3: Unbelievable.
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: Edie McClurg, she said... He's very popular.
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: They all adore him. They think he's a righteous dude.
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: And she also, remember, kept pencils in her hair.
• 22:40
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 22:41
  Speaker 2: She said all the different, the dweebs, the whatever. I forget.
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: I forget. But anyway.
• 22:45
  Speaker 3: All right. So before, when we were coming in there,
• 22:49
  Speaker 3: you heard my man. Liget Dusabal, baby. That is one
• 22:54
  Speaker 3: of the most respected NFL analysts out there. Liget Dusabal
• 23:00
  Speaker 3: from CBS Sports HQ.
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: What's your other favorite take that he has, man?
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: Every one.
• 23:05
  Speaker 3: I don't have a problem with any of his takes.
• 23:07
  Speaker 3: But anyway, now Danny Connell disagreed with him.
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: Former player in the league. He did.
• 23:10
  Speaker 4: He did.
• 23:11
  Speaker 3: Danny Connell disagreed with him. But Danny Connell said he
• 23:15
  Speaker 3: would take C.J.
• 23:16
  Speaker 4: Stroud.
• 23:16
  Speaker 3: He believes more in C.J. Stroud just because of the
• 23:19
  Speaker 3: first year that Stroud had was so good. He still
• 23:22
  Speaker 3: believes there's a chance he can get back to those highs. Listen,
• 23:25
  Speaker 3: we're getting ready, Bone, to go over to joint practice.
• 23:28
  Speaker 3: We're getting ready to see both these guys in action.
• 23:31
  Speaker 3: It has now gotten to the point with C.J. Stroud's
• 23:35
  Speaker 3: decline the last two years and with Bryson proving each
• 23:38
  Speaker 3: of the last two years. It has gotten to a
• 23:40
  Speaker 3: point where in their rookie years, no one, No one
• 23:44
  Speaker 3: could have seen this coming. Craig Young, Bryce's dad, I
• 23:47
  Speaker 3: don't think could have seen this coming, Bone, when they
• 23:49
  Speaker 3: were rookies. But we are now to a point, Bone,
• 23:52
  Speaker 3: where it is an open conversation among national media members.
• 23:57
  Speaker 3: Who do we believe in more moving forward? How do
• 24:02
  Speaker 3: you feel about this one, Bone? I don't even want
• 24:04
  Speaker 3: to hear the negative Bryce haters try to act like
• 24:07
  Speaker 3: this is not a conversation. I will read you off
• 24:10
  Speaker 3: a bunch of stats from last year, a bunch of
• 24:12
  Speaker 3: stats over the last two years. Bryce Young has completely
• 24:16
  Speaker 3: flipped this argument around. He has completely made this a
• 24:19
  Speaker 3: legit debate.
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: It's amazing where we were years ago to where we
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: are now to have this discussion because it felt like
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: it was a foregone conclusion as rookies that CJ was going.
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: To end up back.
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: Remember the year after his rookie year? When the NFL
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: quarterback rankings came out, CJ was top five, top six,
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: top seven, and Bryce was way down at the bottom.
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: It felt like, man, how is Bryce ever going to
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: catch this dude? But the fact is he has. Stroud
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: has come back to earth, and Bryce, although he's not
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: moved up to the levels maybe that we thought he
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: would by now, he's certainly moved up enough to be
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: on a Stroud level. I feel more confident in Bryce
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: going forward than I do CJ Stroud. I think Stroud
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: can be all right, but I think Stroud can win
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: some games, but it's at the benefit of maybe the
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: best events in football right now. And that's how Bryce
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: has to win as well. But I just feel more
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: confident going forward that Bryce still has not peaked, has
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: not hit his ceiling yet of what he can be.
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: Stroud may have peaked in his first year in the league.
• 25:21
  Speaker 3: I think the first season, the support system for Stroud
• 25:24
  Speaker 3: was so much better than Bryce that you just can't,
• 25:27
  Speaker 3: it doesn't even mean anything. The gap between the two
• 25:29
  Speaker 3: of them was a gap that was just misleading, completely misleading.
• 25:34
  Speaker 3: And as Canales has come here, as they've added things
• 25:38
  Speaker 3: that are support system, you know, the offensive line has
• 25:41
  Speaker 3: gotten better. You bring in T-Mac last year, you got
• 25:44
  Speaker 3: Coker here. Once you've started increasing his support system, and
• 25:47
  Speaker 3: for whatever reason the benching really had a good effect
• 25:50
  Speaker 3: on him, he's turned the tables on this thing. I'm
• 25:53
  Speaker 3: going to give you some stats, Bone. You look at
• 25:55
  Speaker 3: the last two years, Bryce Young has 48 total TDs,
• 25:59
  Speaker 3: passing and rushing, and 21 interceptions. CJ Stroud has 42
• 26:04
  Speaker 3: and 26. He has less total TDs, more interceptions out
• 26:09
  Speaker 3: of the last two. And then you start getting to
• 26:11
  Speaker 3: all these different PFF numbers. Bryce Young, better big time
• 26:16
  Speaker 3: throw percentage, better turnover worthy play percentage than Stroud. Bryce Young,
• 26:22
  Speaker 3: better grade under pressure, better grade against the Blitz, better
• 26:27
  Speaker 3: deep passing grade than Stroud. Stroud has him in intermediate
• 26:31
  Speaker 3: passing grade. It was probably Bryce's biggest weakness last year. But, like,
• 26:35
  Speaker 3: you start looking at last year's statistical categories, there is
• 26:39
  Speaker 3: a ton of them where Bryce Young played better than C.J.
• 26:43
  Speaker 2: Stroud in.
• 26:44
  Speaker 3: I know we got these fans that act like Bryce
• 26:46
  Speaker 3: Young is the worst quarterback in the history of football.
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: It's disingenuous. It's annoying. It's over the top. It's obnoxious.
• 26:53
  Speaker 3: But if you just look at the numbers, look at
• 26:55
  Speaker 3: the way they played last year, and I would say
• 26:57
  Speaker 3: look at the way they played the last two years.
• 26:59
  Speaker 3: To me, it's at least a coin flip. And to
• 27:02
  Speaker 3: be honest with you, in many of these categories, Bryce
• 27:04
  Speaker 3: was better, man.
• 27:06
  Speaker 2: He was better.
• 27:07
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: And Bryce, I think, has Bryce's gaining confidence as he
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: goes into his career more Stroud is starting to lose
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: that confidence. There's a big difference right now, I think,
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: and now they're approaching attacking the season. That's a good point.
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: And listen, I'm not writing C.J. Stroud off and saying
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: he's doo-doo. What I'm saying is I'm fighting for my guy.
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: It feels to me like a coin flip. I'm taking
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: my guy.
• 27:30
  Speaker 3: I'm not saying I'm, I'm not guaranteeing it that Bryce
• 27:33
  Speaker 3: has a better, I'm not doing any of that stuff,
• 27:35
  Speaker 3: but I'm saying it feels like a dead heat and
• 27:37
  Speaker 3: it feels like last year was advantage Bryce. He's gotten
• 27:40
  Speaker 3: better every year. Canalis said it on a clip we
• 27:43
  Speaker 3: played earlier that we are tailoring the system more and
• 27:47
  Speaker 3: more to Bryce every year. I think the Idzik play
• 27:50
  Speaker 3: calling is going to help him. Like you said, Bryce
• 27:53
  Speaker 3: has the momentum. I'm rolling with him, man. I am
• 27:57
  Speaker 3: rolling with him in this one, and I think it's
• 28:00
  Speaker 3: a tribute to him because, like you said, no one
• 28:03
  Speaker 3: saw this coming three years ago.
• 28:05
  Speaker 2: No one thought it was even possible.
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: Does it crack you up, Mac, that we have these
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: Bryce-obsessed haters? And it's really like five or six. It
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: really is. But yet they spend every waking moment tweeting
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: about the guy that they don't think is very good.
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: But yet their whole life is, if Bryce wasn't here,
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: what would Niners Eddie do? Would he, would it be
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: crazy if Niners Eddie like focused on his own team?
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: That would be amazing. And all these guys, they they
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: never stop talking. They work Bryce into every radio conversation
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: we have. But it's so funny that they hate on him,
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: but they can't stop talking about the guy. He's in
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: your head, man.
• 28:43
  Speaker 3: I also think the Panther fans also think the Panther
• 28:46
  Speaker 3: fans that get obsessed with Bryce. And the second we
• 28:49
  Speaker 3: talk about him, have to tell us how horrible he is.
• 28:51
  Speaker 3: I also think that you're not being like you're being disingenuous. Like,
• 28:56
  Speaker 3: either that or you just don't get ball. Because you
• 28:59
  Speaker 3: cannot seriously analyze the Panthers and act like Bryce Young
• 29:03
  Speaker 3: is the worst thing on the team.
• 29:05
  Speaker 2: You can't. Because I know ball.
• 29:06
  Speaker 3: As I said before, you were in all those close
• 29:08
  Speaker 3: games last year, those one-score games, Bone. You said they
• 29:11
  Speaker 3: were 7-3 in one-score games. Well, in six of them,
• 29:14
  Speaker 3: he had game-winning drives. There's many quarterbacks, Bone, that might
• 29:19
  Speaker 3: have gone 500 in those games. And by the way,
• 29:24
  Speaker 3: how many times over the last two years have we
• 29:26
  Speaker 3: seen him, including the Rams' playoff game, give them a
• 29:29
  Speaker 3: lead late only to have the defense or someone else
• 29:32
  Speaker 3: cause you to lose that game?
• 29:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he's unflappable. You can't flap him in the clutch.
• 29:39
  Speaker 2: You can't flap.
• 29:40
  Speaker 3: Them. So I would just like, there are bigger problems
• 29:44
  Speaker 3: on this team. Do I want to see him keep improving?
• 29:47
  Speaker 3: Do I want to see him take another step before
• 29:49
  Speaker 3: I say the Panthers should pay you, you know, big
• 29:52
  Speaker 3: time dollars?
• 29:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I do.
• 29:54
  Speaker 3: But like the whole over the top, like Bryce Young
• 29:59
  Speaker 3: is worse than an inebriated version of Fitty would be
• 30:02
  Speaker 3: blindfolded playing quarterback. Like that kind of tone about Bryce, that's,
• 30:06
  Speaker 3: y'all don't really believe that.
• 30:08
  Speaker 2: You know, did you have to make him drunk?
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: Ambulance? Just try it for effect. Let me guess. Fitty
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: in seventh grade. Once through for 345 yards with one eye,
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: with an iPad.
• 30:20
  Speaker 6: Any quarterback history fit with no, did not play quarterback.
• 30:24
  Speaker 6: Remember I was the wide receiver in seventh grade. And in, in, in,
• 30:29
  Speaker 6: in grade school football, we played out in the yard
• 30:31
  Speaker 6: during a science class.
• 30:33
  Speaker 5: The teacher called me Hans Marlow.
• 30:35
  Speaker 2: Hans, baby.
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: I'm sure that's why she called you that. You were
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: playing football during science class?
• 30:40
  Speaker 5: He was a football coach.
• 30:42
  Speaker 6: So a lot of times we just went out and
• 30:44
  Speaker 6: played football during science class.
• 30:47
  Speaker 5: Name was Mr.
• 30:48
  Speaker 2: Fullwood.
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: God, that's the life right there, baby. We did that
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: during PE class, not science class.
• 30:52
  Speaker 4: I know.
• 30:52
  Speaker 2: I wish I had that science teacher. Dang, I'm jealous
• 30:55
  Speaker 2: right now.
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: In my fifth year of kindergarten, we learned how to
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: play football during science.
• 30:58
  Speaker 2: Fitty, what do you think? The text line is split
• 31:01
  Speaker 2: on this.
• 31:01
  Speaker 3: I would say the majority have Bryce's. This dude says,
• 31:07
  Speaker 3: can people realize that y'all aren't saying that you trust
• 31:10
  Speaker 3: Bryce Young more than Josh Allen or Pat Mahomes or
• 31:14
  Speaker 3: Joe Burrow? Do some research and look up C.J. Stroud's
• 31:18
  Speaker 3: numbers the last two years, you dummies. What do you say? Like,
• 31:23
  Speaker 3: that's the thing. Another guy says Mack on here one
• 31:26
  Speaker 3: minute says, yeah, I wouldn't pay Bryce Young yet either.
• 31:29
  Speaker 3: He's got some to prove the next minute. Oh, I
• 31:32
  Speaker 3: believe in him more than C.J.
• 31:33
  Speaker 4: Stroud.
• 31:34
  Speaker 3: I think the texter's point is the one I would
• 31:36
  Speaker 3: lean on there. Like, I'm not, they're both guys who have.
• 31:40
  Speaker 2: Not been paid.
• 31:41
  Speaker 3: And somehow CJ Stroud's reportedly asking for $ 70 million a
• 31:43
  Speaker 3: year with a straight face.
• 31:45
  Speaker 2: I don't know how.
• 31:45
  Speaker 3: He ought to put on a ski mask while he
• 31:47
  Speaker 3: does that. What do you think about all this, Fitty?
• 31:51
  Speaker 6: On the surface, you know, you're talking about CJ Stroud,
• 31:54
  Speaker 6: a guy that's won multiple division titles, won multiple playoff games.
• 31:58
  Speaker 6: I can see where Panther fans can be envious of
• 32:02
  Speaker 6: the success that he has had. at the quarterback spot
• 32:07
  Speaker 6: of the NFL. Here's the difference. He inherited a better situation.
• 32:12
  Speaker 6: than what Bryce Young walked into the second he walked
• 32:14
  Speaker 6: into Carolina. Like he had a better head coaching day,
• 32:18
  Speaker 6: one with D'Amico Ryans, a championship caliber defense from the
• 32:22
  Speaker 6: moment that he got there. And I think Bryce Young
• 32:24
  Speaker 6: would have achieved the same types of things in Houston
• 32:27
  Speaker 6: that C.J.
• 32:28
  Speaker 5: Stroud has had.
• 32:29
  Speaker 6: I don't think they've gone any further, but I think
• 32:32
  Speaker 6: Bryce would have the same division titles and they would
• 32:34
  Speaker 6: have gone out in the second round the way they've
• 32:36
  Speaker 6: gone out.
• 32:36
  Speaker 5: I don't think C.J.
• 32:37
  Speaker 6: Stroud would have elevated this organization the way that Bryce
• 32:41
  Speaker 6: Young did last year. And we talk about the six
• 32:43
  Speaker 6: wins being game-winning drives of the eight that they registered
• 32:46
  Speaker 6: last year. And a lot of those, Mac, were with
• 32:48
  Speaker 6: Bryce throwing the football. They were with him having to
• 32:51
  Speaker 6: make plays on third and fourth down in key situations. Like, yeah,
• 32:55
  Speaker 6: there were certain games where we ran the ball to
• 32:57
  Speaker 6: get back into the game. But he had to make
• 32:59
  Speaker 6: throws because that's what this league is all about. So
• 33:02
  Speaker 6: when I project for the long term, I still think
• 33:05
  Speaker 6: Bryce Young, when it's all said and done, has a
• 33:08
  Speaker 6: higher ceiling.
• 33:10
  Speaker 5: Than what C.J. Stroud has to offer at this level.
• 33:13
  Speaker 6: And this is coming from a guy that wanted to
• 33:15
  Speaker 6: draft Stroud over Bryce.
• 33:16
  Speaker 5: I was a Stroud guy over Bryce back during the
• 33:18
  Speaker 5: draft process.
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: Stroud played in two playoff games last year. The first
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: against Pittsburgh, they blew him out. But that defense, it
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: didn't even matter if the Texans scored seven points in
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: that game. Pittsburgh could do nothing on offense. It was 30-6,
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: but that was a largely defensive effort. Stroud threw for 250,
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: one touchdown, one pick. Quarterback rating 86. The next game,
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: where they needed Stroud more against New England... He threw
• 33:43
  Speaker 1: Mack one touchdown, four interceptions. He had a 28 rating.
• 33:47
  Speaker 2: He was horrible.
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: If Bryce Young against the Rams had one touchdown, four INTs,
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: and a 28 rating, what would the narrative be this
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: entire offseason about Bryce Young?
• 33:58
  Speaker 2: Oh, yeah.
• 34:00
  Speaker 3: He wouldn't be getting talked about the same way. He
• 34:02
  Speaker 3: wouldn't have as many defenders as Stroud has. I've got
• 34:04
  Speaker 3: to be honest with you, Bone. The Texters act like
• 34:07
  Speaker 3: Bryce plays that way every game. Some of y'all do.
• 34:10
  Speaker 3: Certainly not the bulk of you, but some of y'all do. Yeah,
• 34:13
  Speaker 3: the playoff game. And how did Bryce play in the
• 34:15
  Speaker 3: playoff game? Had a mistake early, but after that was tremendous.
• 34:19
  Speaker 3: Damn near pulled off a win over one of the
• 34:20
  Speaker 3: best teams in the league. in the playoff game last year.
• 34:24
  Speaker 3: So yeah, I just, I, again, this isn't a battle for,
• 34:27
  Speaker 3: this isn't the two and three best quarterback in the NFL.
• 34:30
  Speaker 3: These are guys that are down, I think around 20,
• 34:32
  Speaker 3: probably last season, but I'm hoping we can get Bryce
• 34:36
  Speaker 3: into that top half.
• 34:37
  Speaker 2: And by the way, a lot of.
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: People, the contract stuff will be interesting too, when it
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: comes to comparisons of these guys as well going forward.
• 34:44
  Speaker 3: A lot of people are pointing out Houston's defense. This
• 34:48
  Speaker 3: guy says Bryce would have 12 wins if he had
• 34:50
  Speaker 3: Houston's defense. Another texter says, how many games did Houston's
• 34:54
  Speaker 3: defense win for CJ Stroud? And those are all points
• 34:58
  Speaker 3: that have to be made, too. You know, like now,
• 35:01
  Speaker 3: if this defense bone is top 10, I'm guessing Bryce's
• 35:05
  Speaker 3: winning percentage goes up this year.
• 35:06
  Speaker 2: It's amazing what people will come up with.
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: I can't compare Bryce Young in a home playoff game
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: to C.J.
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: Stroud in Foxborough. Sorry about that.
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: The bottom line is, in the games that ended their season,
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: Bryce Young showed out, played well against one of the
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: best teams in football.
• 35:24
  Speaker 2: C.J.
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: Stroud, in his playoff game that ended his season, was
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: a huge reason why, if not the biggest reason why,
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: they got their doors blown off.
• 35:33
  Speaker 2: Doors blown off? Their doors blown off by the Patriots.
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: I don't care where the game is played, Danny Almonte hater.
• 35:40
  Speaker 3: I can't believe that's the name of a texter on
• 35:42
  Speaker 3: the text line. Oh, my God. Deep passing, passing under pressure,
• 35:47
  Speaker 3: passing versus the Blitz. Bryce was better at all that stuff, man, statistically,
• 35:52
  Speaker 3: last year.
• 35:53
  Speaker 2: All right. Is that it? Is that our Fit Dog update?
• 35:56
  Speaker 4: No.
• 35:57
  Speaker 3: We used our allotted quota of Fit Dog.
• 35:59
  Speaker 2: When we come back, it's the wrap-up.
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: Braves-Dodgers game two and Blueprint back tonight on the Panthers' feeds.
• 36:06
  Speaker 2: We'll preview that. Sports Radio 92.7 WFNZ. It'll result in
• 36:25
  Speaker 2: a few of these showers and storms popping up mostly across.
• 36:27
  Speaker 6: The north and west, and resulting in the chance for
• 36:31
  Speaker 6: some heavier precipitation, a few bands of storms in some spots.
• 36:36
  Speaker 5: We gotta finish up this weather right now.
• 36:40
  Speaker 4: I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry.
• 36:43
  Speaker 2: I'm so sorry.
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: I'm so sorry.
• 36:46
  Speaker 3: I'm so sorry.
• 36:47
  Speaker 2: I'm so sorry. I have to step up my strength!
• 36:53
  Speaker 2: I've never had this happen before!
• 36:55
  Speaker 4: Oh, jeez!
• 36:55
  Speaker 3: Alright, let me.
• 36:58
  Speaker 2: Get it together real quick! I'm so sorry!
• 37:05
  Speaker 4: You're playing sweet-blooded horror!
• 37:10
  Speaker 2: This is what rain falls like at night! But let's
• 37:13
  Speaker 2: just throw it to the seven days!
• 37:15
  Speaker 3: Oh, my gosh!
• 37:18
  Speaker 2: The 70s and the 80s.
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: Freelanerous coastal spots.
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: Different story, a little cooler.
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: Lord of the 70s, John, please take it.
• 37:31
  Speaker 2: Whatever happened to professionalism, Patrick? Thanks, buddy. Oh, my God.
• 37:37
  Speaker 2: That is Patrick Osborne.
• 37:39
  Speaker 3: He has gone viral, as you might guess, for a
• 37:42
  Speaker 3: weather report that he was giving on WABI in Maine,
• 37:47
  Speaker 3: where he works, Bone. He couldn't stop laughing, but he
• 37:50
  Speaker 3: tried to continue with the weather report. I didn't really
• 37:53
  Speaker 3: understand anything he said, Bone, for about the last 45 seconds. But,
• 37:57
  Speaker 3: my God, that is hilarious to listen to him try
• 38:00
  Speaker 3: to fight through that laugh.
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, it kept going and going. That's the
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: most viral moment ever out of Maine, I think. Since
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: Cooper Flagg High School highlights. It was after a commercial
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: break prank involving a sound effect backfired.
• 38:14
  Speaker 2: And that's what set him off there. You don't hear
• 38:16
  Speaker 2: Al Conklin doing that anywhere, do you? Oh, man.
• 38:20
  Speaker 3: It sounded to me like it was so high pitched.
• 38:22
  Speaker 3: Is that Willie P doing weather? that was my thought
• 38:25
  Speaker 3: really sorry p-man love you baby great segment today great
• 38:28
  Speaker 3: segment anyway that cracked us up and it cracked him
• 38:31
  Speaker 3: up apparently as well so couldn't help ourselves on that
• 38:34
  Speaker 3: one y'all oh gosh uh anyway all right so let's
• 38:38
  Speaker 3: set up what's happening from here bone man we've got
• 38:41
  Speaker 3: the joint practice coming up top of the hour looking
• 38:43
  Speaker 3: forward to headed over there and why and uh taking
• 38:46
  Speaker 3: any action and watching um uh you know a big
• 38:49
  Speaker 3: test especially for that panthers offense big test No.
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: That wasn't Finney crying about the Tar Heels.
• 38:54
  Speaker 2: It was a man laughing. That's Finney when Cormac exited.
• 38:59
  Speaker 2: Sorry about that, guys.
• 38:59
  Speaker 3: Also got Blueprints coming up. It is the training camp
• 39:04
  Speaker 3: edition of Blueprint when they report for camp and the
• 39:07
  Speaker 3: early days of camp. And that drops tonight at 6 o'clock,
• 39:10
  Speaker 3: so that ought to be entertaining to watch. And then
• 39:12
  Speaker 3: Braves-Dodgers game two of their series, Two Bone, is tonight
• 39:16
  Speaker 3: as well.
• 39:16
  Speaker 1: Yeah, can the Braves win three in a row, which
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: would be one over Milwaukee, two over the Dodgers? That
• 39:22
  Speaker 1: would be a big three-game stretch, Matt, considering what they
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: did prior to that, right?
• 39:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 39:26
  Speaker 3: Now they got Smith-Shauver going tonight, so this is clearly
• 39:28
  Speaker 3: going into the series the one. that braves fans probably
• 39:32
  Speaker 3: don't know about they can get this one all of
• 39:35
  Speaker 3: a sudden it's like wow sale yamamoto tomorrow yep Sale
• 39:38
  Speaker 3: just got done with the Miz. He lost to the Miz.
• 39:42
  Speaker 3: And now he goes to Yamamoto. What a stretch for
• 39:45
  Speaker 3: the Braves. But a big win last night. Yeah, it
• 39:47
  Speaker 3: feels like most texters thought it was crying and not laughing.
• 39:51
  Speaker 2: That the weatherman was crying through his weather report. Yeah,
• 39:54
  Speaker 2: they said, why is Matt crying? Matt's not crying.
• 39:56
  Speaker 3: That's me if the Panthers lose. If the Panthers lose
• 40:00
  Speaker 3: to that bleep show to Browns, Boney, that's me right there.
• 40:04
  Speaker 3: That is what I'm going to sound like, weeping.
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: 828 number brings up this fact, Mac, about Dolly partying
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: and the timing of her death. The next hurricane on
• 40:13
  Speaker 1: the chart is Dolly. Hurricane Dolly is the next named hurricane.
• 40:17
  Speaker 2: Oh, man, how about that? How about that?
• 40:19
  Speaker 3: All right, let me read some of these texts here, 7045709610.
• 40:24
  Speaker 3: Let's see what we have going on here. Fitty, what
• 40:27
  Speaker 3: was your science teacher's name?
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: Mr.
• 40:31
  Speaker 3: Fullwood.
• 40:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah, somebody texted in. Hell yeah, Mr.
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: Fullwood.
• 40:34
  Speaker 2: It was Doug the Duke fan. Did he go to
• 40:37
  Speaker 2: your school?
• 40:38
  Speaker 5: Yeah, that's how I know him. We went to sixth
• 40:39
  Speaker 5: and seventh grade together.
• 40:40
  Speaker 2: What was the gentleman's name?
• 40:43
  Speaker 4: Who?
• 40:44
  Speaker 2: The science teacher.
• 40:45
  Speaker 1: Mr.
• 40:45
  Speaker 3: Fullwood.
• 40:46
  Speaker 2: That's a hell of a name, man. Hell of a name.
• 40:49
  Speaker 2: I'm sure no jokes were made at all. No, no.
• 40:52
  Speaker 2: You're behind his back. Y'all didn't say anything at all.
• 40:54
  Speaker 2: All right, anyway.
• 40:56
  Speaker 3: Seems like a fun teacher, though. Seems like a fun teacher.
• 40:58
  Speaker 3: All right, let's see what we have here. We have
• 40:59
  Speaker 3: second date suggestions for Fitty after it went really well
• 41:04
  Speaker 3: last night. This texter says, second date, Maumau's pool, Fitty.
• 41:10
  Speaker 5: Did enter my mind because pool season is winding down.
• 41:13
  Speaker 3: You got to get a pool date in. Maybe a
• 41:14
  Speaker 3: couple more dates and then a pool date.
• 41:16
  Speaker 2: Maybe that's the activity. Maybe it's jumping in the pool. Cannonballs.
• 41:20
  Speaker 1: Hoosier Bobby thought that was Weatherman Mark after taking helium.
• 41:24
  Speaker 2: I would never laugh like that.
• 41:26
  Speaker 3: I thought somebody said, is that DVR Dave doing New
• 41:29
  Speaker 3: England weather?
• 41:31
  Speaker 1: They're now calling him VCR Dave because I messed it up.
• 41:34
  Speaker 3: VCR Dave. Oh, am I allowed to read a Bebop text?
• 41:39
  Speaker 3: Somebody got very triggered, Bone, that we keep reading Bebop's
• 41:42
  Speaker 3: text and mentioning him on the air. He wants his
• 41:44
  Speaker 3: own text read. We never do because it's one of those, like,
• 41:47
  Speaker 3: that just happens. Like, we get a lot of texts.
• 41:50
  Speaker 1: Sometimes people send in conversational texts and sometimes I don't transition.
• 41:53
  Speaker 2: Sometimes you make it, sometimes you don't. Yeah, but this
• 41:56
  Speaker 2: guy gets very, I mean, very upset that... I can't
• 42:00
  Speaker 2: help it.
• 42:00
  Speaker 3: I don't have the willpower to not mention this dude
• 42:03
  Speaker 3: that annoys the living crap out of me. I do
• 42:06
  Speaker 3: not like, I don't know. Many other people do have
• 42:08
  Speaker 3: the willpower. I will say this bone. How many texts
• 42:11
  Speaker 3: do we ignore though? That's the crazy thing.
• 42:14
  Speaker 2: I ignore a lot of the haters. We ignore. Yeah,
• 42:17
  Speaker 2: I've noticed that about you.
• 42:19
  Speaker 3: I would say we ignore 97% of Bob's texts.
• 42:21
  Speaker 2: He sends so many. So anyway, but I'll read one here.
• 42:25
  Speaker 3: Bebop says, Mac will be singing I Will Always Love
• 42:28
  Speaker 3: You at the end of the season when Bryce is
• 42:30
  Speaker 3: not re-signed.
• 42:31
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 42:33
  Speaker 3: I can't wait until he gets that deal, Bob, and
• 42:35
  Speaker 3: you've got to cry.
• 42:36
  Speaker 2: You've got to cry like a damn weatherman.
• 42:38
  Speaker 1: If you don't think we want to go three days
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: without Bob, text her for yourself.
• 42:42
  Speaker 3: Panther Bo says, Finney, you need to find out if
• 42:48
  Speaker 3: your date from last night also loves Taylor Sheridan TV shows, though, Finney.
• 42:52
  Speaker 5: I did think about asking that last night.
• 42:55
  Speaker 2: Second date. Bring that up. You into Taylor Sheridan shows?
• 42:58
  Speaker 2: I hope so.
• 43:00
  Speaker 3: Oh, man.
• 43:01
  Speaker 2: This guy says Chelsea just beat Fullwood the other day
• 43:03
  Speaker 2: in soccer. Fullwood. See, I know that's not their name.
• 43:09
  Speaker 2: There you go. You're on to it now, baby. Let's see.
• 43:12
  Speaker 3: This texter says, if Jatavian Sanders gets traded to the Packers,
• 43:16
  Speaker 3: watch him go ball out. We are the farm team
• 43:19
  Speaker 3: for the entire NFL. Yeah, there is always a paranoia
• 43:23
  Speaker 3: for Charlotte sports fans, Bone. that players will go somewhere else.
• 43:27
  Speaker 3: So Packers reporter is reporting that the Packers have contacted.
• 43:31
  Speaker 2: Ultimately, though, he's their third tight end.
• 43:32
  Speaker 1: Ultimately, though, when they're healthy, though, he's their third tight end.
• 43:34
  Speaker 1: So I don't know. He'll be behind Kraft and Musgrave
• 43:38
  Speaker 1: if they're there. So I don't know if he's going
• 43:39
  Speaker 1: to be out there as much. Maybe to start the year,
• 43:42
  Speaker 1: but I don't think they're getting Sanders for anything. I
• 43:44
  Speaker 1: don't think he's like their long-term tight end fix. They
• 43:47
  Speaker 1: already have two tight ends there, and one's a pro
• 43:49
  Speaker 1: bowler in Tucker Kraft.
• 43:50
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and if he does so be, I mean, I
• 43:52
  Speaker 3: understand the feeling of paranoia, Panther fan paranoia, but I
• 43:56
  Speaker 3: believe if they can get, they can get a sixth
• 43:58
  Speaker 3: round pick. And again, this is a Packers reporter reporting.
• 44:02
  Speaker 3: that the Panthers are shopping Sanders and the Packers have
• 44:04
  Speaker 3: contacted them. We have nothing coming out of Panther insiders,
• 44:08
  Speaker 3: so full disclosure. But if they get a six-round pick
• 44:11
  Speaker 3: for Jadavian Sanders, God bless him. I wish him the best.
• 44:14
  Speaker 3: We won't care. But let Waller take his spot. If
• 44:16
  Speaker 3: Waller and Evans ball out, then we're not going to
• 44:19
  Speaker 3: care that much.
• 44:20
  Speaker 2: No doubt about it.
• 44:20
  Speaker 6: Mac, if I overhear anything at practice today about JT Sanders.
• 44:24
  Speaker 5: I won't say it on the air tomorrow.
• 44:26
  Speaker 2: Oh, they're going to stay so far away from you. Oh,
• 44:28
  Speaker 2: my God. Wait till you see all the writers.
• 44:30
  Speaker 3: When Finney walks up behind him, they all going to
• 44:32
  Speaker 3: walk to the other end of the practice field.
• 44:35
  Speaker 2: Oh, man. All right.
• 44:36
  Speaker 3: We're out of here, y'all. We're headed out to joint practice.
• 44:39
  Speaker 3: We'll talk all about it tomorrow. And you know that
• 44:42
  Speaker 3: we are going to cover it. probably like it's a
• 44:44
  Speaker 3: Super Bowl, the rest of the day, too, here on WFNZ.
• 44:48
  Speaker 3: So keep it right here for Panthers Talk. Tomorrow on
• 44:50
  Speaker 3: the show, you know we've got to do some Week
• 44:52
  Speaker 3: Zero as well with Carolina and State in action. Good
• 44:55
  Speaker 3: work out of the Fit Dog. Congrats on your successful
• 44:58
  Speaker 3: first State 50. Thanks to everybody for hanging out with us,
• 45:01
  Speaker 3: even Bebop. We'll talk to you all tomorrow on the
• 45:03
