Mac & Bone Hour 4: Rodney McLeod & Zach Gelb · Mac & Bone Podcast

• 0:11
  Speaker 1: Oh, man, Zach Gelb going to join us, 925. What
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: does he think of the Panthers? He might have cracked
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: a joke or two about giving up 59 points during
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: last week's Friday appearance. What does he think about the Panthers,
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: the way they put it to the Falcons? And the
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: best I can tell, Bone, the way the Falcons did
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: the Packers last night, I feel like we should be
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: even more proud today of the win, although it did
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: look like Michael Penix might have been an upgrade over
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: Cooper Rush and Jack Strand.
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: Also an example of how quickly things can change from
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: what a team looks like on Sunday to whether it
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: be Thursday or Sunday or next Monday. This league, man,
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: you never know what a team may look like. That's
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: why you can't go 0% in this league. You can't say, oh,
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: there's a 0% chance the Browns beat us.
• 0:55
  Speaker 3: That's crazy talk. That's just asking for trouble, man.
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: Maybe we should ask a guy that played in the
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: league for 12 years and not you and I that, though.
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: You think he knows it better than us?
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: Rodney McLeod, man, what a hard hit in safety he was.
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: Played 13 years in the NFL, included getting a Super
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: Bowl ring with Philly. Also played with the Rams, the Colts,
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: and the Browns. Right now, he is doing a good job.
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: ACC Network analyst, covering games weekly with George Sedano. He's
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: got Virginia, Delaware tomorrow. We've got to talk to him
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: about some of his observations about this conference. and Rodney McLeod,
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: ACC Network, joins us on the Mac and Bone Show. Rodney,
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: what's going on, man? We got somebody that played 13
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: years in it. We just talk about it, man. Much respect, brother.
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: How you doing?
• 1:41
  Speaker 4: I'm doing great. How are you guys doing this morning?
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: We're doing good, man. We are doing good. We love
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: this time of year.
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: And I know you live for this time of year
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: as well, as far as football season goes. What made
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: you want to get into the analyst side of things?
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: It's got to be love of the game, right? I
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: would think.
• 2:00
  Speaker 4: Absolutely. Love of the game is first and foremost. really
• 2:04
  Speaker 4: how do you want to make your contribution to the
• 2:06
  Speaker 4: game right after you leave it? And, you know, there's
• 2:09
  Speaker 4: a number of different ways that you can utilize your knowledge,
• 2:14
  Speaker 4: your expertise, and passion. And so I felt like analysts
• 2:19
  Speaker 4: calling games was probably the closest thing to being a
• 2:23
  Speaker 4: player all over again, outside of being a coach. It's
• 2:26
  Speaker 4: the purest thing to the game. And I just want to–
• 2:29
  Speaker 4: I just really enjoy teaching games. the game of football, right,
• 2:33
  Speaker 4: to the audience and kind of just bringing them into
• 2:37
  Speaker 4: my world, how I see the game, especially from a
• 2:39
  Speaker 4: defensive mindset and viewpoint, and then telling the story of
• 2:44
  Speaker 4: a lot of these young men that are chasing their
• 2:46
  Speaker 4: dreams and trying to end up where I am. So
• 2:49
  Speaker 4: it's been very fulfilling, rewarding. It's been a challenge, but
• 2:54
  Speaker 4: I do enjoy it every Saturday.
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: Rodney, the way NC State lost last week to Vanderbilt
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: became really maybe the most talked about story of the
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: college football weekend last week. In your lengthy football career,
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: had you ever seen a team lose really in that fashion?
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: And how tough might the bounce back be for a
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: team after a loss like that? State plays App State tomorrow.
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: How tough a spot is that for the Pack?
• 3:24
  Speaker 4: Very difficult to overcome. You don't get those games back.
• 3:28
  Speaker 4: You don't get those opportunities back again. And that was
• 3:32
  Speaker 4: a missed moment for NC State, who I felt could
• 3:37
  Speaker 4: be a dark horse team in the ACC, especially under
• 3:41
  Speaker 4: with C.J. Bailey at the helm. He's a talented quarterback
• 3:46
  Speaker 4: that you know, can spin the football all over the field.
• 3:49
  Speaker 4: But that's one area, right, that you expect him to
• 3:54
  Speaker 4: grow into, you know, coming into his junior year. You know,
• 3:57
  Speaker 4: smart football. And in the game, you pretty much have
• 3:59
  Speaker 4: a game seal. You know, any sense of contact, you
• 4:02
  Speaker 4: have to go down there. And that's a missed mark.
• 4:05
  Speaker 4: And like you said, it's going to be hard to
• 4:09
  Speaker 4: recover from games like those. You look back at the
• 4:12
  Speaker 4: end of the season, like, you know, that could have
• 4:14
  Speaker 4: been the game, too. propel us, keep us in the running,
• 4:18
  Speaker 4: or it could have been the game that broke us.
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: Rodney, what do you think about Miami? Miami is the
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: favorite to win this conference, obviously. I will give an
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: attaboy to Wake, though, for competing with them in the
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: second half. Miami's banged up right now, right? They lose
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: backup running back Marty Brown. They lose one of their receivers,
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: Josh Moore. What do you think about this Miami team?
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: How high up do you rank them among national title contenders?
• 4:45
  Speaker 4: Offensively, they have to be one or two. I don't
• 4:49
  Speaker 4: know another offensive personnel or unit that operates as effectively
• 4:56
  Speaker 4: as they do. First, it starts with Darian Mesa, the
• 5:00
  Speaker 4: way he's able to control the game through the air.
• 5:04
  Speaker 4: He has a very good pulse of just the offensive structure.
• 5:09
  Speaker 4: His receivers, of course, Malachi Toney stands out. He's unguardable
• 5:14
  Speaker 4: out there, and they just continue to find a way
• 5:16
  Speaker 4: to get in the football. And then you can hand
• 5:18
  Speaker 4: the ball off to a bruiser and Mark Fletcher. And,
• 5:22
  Speaker 4: you know, when you have those two engines operating at
• 5:26
  Speaker 4: an efficient level, you know, you're dangerous. They look scary
• 5:31
  Speaker 4: to me. I think, to your point, injuries right now
• 5:34
  Speaker 4: is what they're up against. That's one of the crises
• 5:36
  Speaker 4: this year, and how do they maybe– build depth while
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: some of those guys are sitting out to help them
• 5:46
  Speaker 4: later along in the year. So I think this is
• 5:50
  Speaker 4: going to be the first test for them. Can they
• 5:52
  Speaker 4: sustain this level of performance while some of their players
• 5:58
  Speaker 4: work themselves back into the lineup?
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: We're talking to Rodney McLeod, longtime NFL safety, now doing
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: great work with the ACC Network. Rodney, your first game
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: this year was Duke hosting Tulane. So I wanted to
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: ask you, what's your thoughts on where Manny Diaz has
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: this Duke program from a consistency level? And you got
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: to see Nate Shepard up close. What are your thoughts
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: on him as one of the best players in America
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: right now?
• 6:26
  Speaker 4: Manny Diaz, phenomenal leader. Every stop that he's been at,
• 6:32
  Speaker 4: he's made a difference and changed the culture forward. And
• 6:38
  Speaker 4: he's done the same at Duke. They're reigning ACC champions.
• 6:42
  Speaker 4: They didn't do it in the conventional way, but they
• 6:44
  Speaker 4: do have that banner. And that says something about your team,
• 6:48
  Speaker 4: about your leader. And right now, after looking at them
• 6:52
  Speaker 4: over that first game and then in the early part
• 6:56
  Speaker 4: of the season, they found their identity through the run
• 6:59
  Speaker 4: game in Nate Shepard. He's a workhorse. He sees everything
• 7:03
  Speaker 4: that stats speak of. You know, he's really good vision
• 7:08
  Speaker 4: through the hole, good burst, good change of direction. He
• 7:13
  Speaker 4: has the ability to kind of possess all, like, the qualities, quickness, power,
• 7:18
  Speaker 4: and strength. and they're beating on him wholeheartedly. Walker Egan
• 7:24
  Speaker 4: is an experienced quarterback, and so he's doing enough right
• 7:27
  Speaker 4: now for them. They have a really good tight end,
• 7:31
  Speaker 4: and then you pair that with Manny Diaz's defense that
• 7:34
  Speaker 4: has kind of found their way recently. You have to
• 7:39
  Speaker 4: like the position that you put yourself in these first
• 7:41
  Speaker 4: three days of the season.
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: Rodney, what do you think about this Friday night game tonight?
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: Clemson fans got to stay up late tonight, and this
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: one just feels scary to me. First of all, there's
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: a lot of flaws, even with the UNC win. There's
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: a lot of flaws on this Clemson team. Cal's quarterback
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: is freaking legit. I would think you'd think that's a Sunday, dude.
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: You know. What are your thoughts about Clemson Cal tonight?
• 8:08
  Speaker 4: Personally, I give the edge to Cal. I believe in JKS.
• 8:13
  Speaker 4: I believe in the fact that most teams in the ACC,
• 8:18
  Speaker 4: the ones that are succeeding, have an established quarterback. They
• 8:23
  Speaker 4: have a quarterback that they can trust, that they can
• 8:25
  Speaker 4: win the football games, that's not afraid of the moment,
• 8:29
  Speaker 4: and they feel secure about. And I give an edge
• 8:32
  Speaker 4: to Kyle. JKS is an NFL talent. Just his level
• 8:37
  Speaker 4: of just employees in the pocket, He has the great
• 8:41
  Speaker 4: NFL arm talent, you know, whether it's velocity, his touch,
• 8:46
  Speaker 4: sees the game very well. He's just polished beyond his years.
• 8:50
  Speaker 4: And so I like Kyle because of that reason. A
• 8:54
  Speaker 4: lot of other reasons, too. But just looking at Clemson
• 8:58
  Speaker 4: in their early struggles, that gives the edge to Kyle
• 9:02
  Speaker 4: because of that man alone.
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: Roddy, you have Virginia tomorrow coming off the loss here
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: in Charlotte to West Virginia last week, a team you
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: know well in the Virginia Cavaliers where you went to school.
• 9:14
  Speaker 3: What went wrong.
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: For the Cavs against West Virginia? And do you put
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: them on that level below Miami of a team that
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: can still maybe make the championship game in the ACC?
• 9:27
  Speaker 4: Yeah, my Cavs took off last weekend, of course, but
• 9:32
  Speaker 4: I think a few things stood out to me. was, one,
• 9:36
  Speaker 4: the inability to use Padula in the run game. I
• 9:40
  Speaker 4: felt that's a missing component and a component that they
• 9:45
  Speaker 4: need in order to have a strong run game that
• 9:47
  Speaker 4: they possess. But he was non-existent in that football game.
• 9:51
  Speaker 4: And then at some point, the game was in his hands, right?
• 9:57
  Speaker 4: And he struggled to... throw the ball accurately on the
• 10:01
  Speaker 4: outside part of the field. Receiver struggled versus one-on-one coverage
• 10:05
  Speaker 4: once West Virginia started to tighten down and move the block.
• 10:09
  Speaker 4: So that's what Virginia's up against offensively is, you know,
• 10:13
  Speaker 4: can Pervila actually be a passer? can they find a
• 10:19
  Speaker 4: receiver that can win one-on-one matchups like they had last year,
• 10:23
  Speaker 4: guys like Terrell Harris and things of that nature. And
• 10:27
  Speaker 4: then defensively, the worst kind of outing thus far, very surprising.
• 10:34
  Speaker 4: How much they gave up on the run game, Hawkins
• 10:38
  Speaker 4: and Cam Cook had their way. And so there was
• 10:42
  Speaker 4: a lot of characteristics about the defense last week, and
• 10:46
  Speaker 4: they have to go back to the film and they
• 10:48
  Speaker 4: have to tighten it up because the copycat leads. So
• 10:51
  Speaker 4: you do one thing wrong, a team's going to try
• 10:54
  Speaker 4: to exploit that for the following week. They're not up
• 10:56
  Speaker 4: against a running quarterback this week, but later down the line,
• 11:00
  Speaker 4: quarterbacks like Ashton Daniels and such could give Virginia trouble.
• 11:04
  Speaker 3: All right, man.
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: Great to talk to you. Great job. You're doing on
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: the ACC Network. Great job on this interview. And thank
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: you for coming on, Rodney. Enjoy the game tomorrow, man.
• 11:15
  Speaker 3: Thank you.
• 11:16
  Speaker 4: I appreciate you guys.
• 11:18
  Speaker 3: Thanks, Rodney.
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: There you go, Rodney McLeod. He is now with the
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: ACC Network. And somebody texted in, Bone, I didn't bring
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: it up because of time constraints, but someone's like, ask
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: him about his hit on Emmanuel Sanders. I had forgotten
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: about this hit. He comes over, safety over the top.
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: He's playing for the Rams, Sanders for the Broncos. This
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: is back when Peyton Manning was the quarterback. And he
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: just shalama-bams. Sanders and like Sanders is out for a
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: minute there. And like, as he's laying there and you're like.
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: Is he, is he awake? Like zero, the ref throws
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: his hat on top of the manual. Insult to injury, man.
• 11:53
  Speaker 3: Oh no. Insult to damn injury.
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: Oh, man.
• 11:57
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: Keep the text coming about the football weekend, your thoughts
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: on what's going on. He says he gives the advantage
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: to Cal over Clemson. Keep the text coming, 704-570-9610. Doc
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: on the text line said, look at the availability report.
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: We're without a couple defensive tackles this week. So their
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: run defense got gashed by 215, has been terrible. So
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: has their pass defense. And now they've got more injuries
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: up front, man. That is– That's a scary one. That's
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: going to be like, you've got to stay under the
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: covers tonight, Clemson fans watching this. Because I'm telling you,
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: that's a scary little horror film tonight, Bone.
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: Probably by themselves. We now have a— Clemson fans don't
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: have any babes?
• 12:39
  Speaker 3: Have you studied? Is that a study? They like to
• 12:41
  Speaker 3: watch the games. I'm sure alone.
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: Max, speaking of a man, but never alone. Always with
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: us in spirit. That's Weatherman Mark 1-0. on his pep talk,
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: so he gets another week this week. Damn straight he does.
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: He brought the absolute sizzle last week to the radio
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: program for the pep talk. Weatherman Mark back again. Marky,
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: congrats on last week, man. You got the win for us.
• 13:06
  Speaker 5: Yeah, thanks, man.
• 13:07
  Speaker 6: Happy birthday to Granny Pat.
• 13:09
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: Hell yeah, Granny. Happy birthday. All right, Mark, let it rip, baby.
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: You went to levels of fire that we honestly didn't
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: know you had last week. Fire us up. Fire the
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: Panthers up. Give us the pep talk for the Browns game.
• 13:25
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 13:27
  Speaker 6: Panthers going to get it done.
• 13:29
  Speaker 5: They're going to get it done.
• 13:31
  Speaker 6: They're going to get it done. We're going to Cleveland.
• 13:36
  Speaker 6: We're going to get a bunch of frowns when we
• 13:40
  Speaker 6: come to town because we're going.
• 13:43
  Speaker 5: To find them too.
• 13:46
  Speaker 7: You hear that drum?
• 13:48
  Speaker 5: Boom, boom, boom. Keep pounding. Keep pounding. Keep pounding.
• 13:57
  Speaker 6: Those Browns to the ground, baby. We're going to pound
• 14:02
  Speaker 6: them to the ground. Take them to the end and
• 14:05
  Speaker 6: kick that rear end.
• 14:08
  Speaker 3: Boom, boom, boom.
• 14:10
  Speaker 6: We're going to pound them to the ground. Pound the
• 14:14
  Speaker 6: Browns to the ground.
• 14:15
  Speaker 3: Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.
• 14:19
  Speaker 8: Go Panthers.
• 14:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah, baby!
• 14:24
  Speaker 9: I'm ready!
• 14:25
  Speaker 3: Let's go get them, Panthers! Does that not fire y'all up?
• 14:28
  Speaker 3: I'd like to make an adjustment.
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: All right, Mark.
• 14:30
  Speaker 3: Good job, baby. Good job. Panthers by 80. Oh, my God. Oh, God.
• 14:39
  Speaker 3: I didn't know a song was coming. Where does this
• 14:40
  Speaker 3: come from? I didn't know the song was coming this week.
• 14:42
  Speaker 3: We put him on the round table. He doesn't do
• 14:44
  Speaker 3: this stuff. Yeah, he does. He's got some fire and desire.
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: He's got a little.
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: Boom, boom, boom. Gonna beat those Browns. Did he say
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: he's going to run it through their tum-tum at one point?
• 14:53
  Speaker 3: I think that did happen at some point there. If
• 14:56
  Speaker 3: he's gone, we've all seen him back there. I don't know.
• 14:59
  Speaker 3: I don't know if he's going through to Hollywood, dog.
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: I'm not sure. Oh, no, he's going past Hollywood. Oh,
• 15:06
  Speaker 3: the text line. I'm afraid to read the text line, Bo.
• 15:09
  Speaker 3: I'm afraid to read. Oh, my God. Can I have
• 15:12
  Speaker 3: those two minutes back? I don't know. 704 number.
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: I don't know if that's the best moment of my life,

  Speaker 1: Do you think he was doing the instrumental or was
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: he writing the lyrics on Monday? I didn't need to
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: know his process.
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: This guy almost wrecked his car. He's laughing so hard.
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: This guy wants to know if we can somehow give
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: him his two minutes back.
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: This texter says, please, I would pay personally Sirloin $ 100
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: to do the pep talks after hearing that. Sirloin himself
• 15:58

  Speaker 1: doesn't get to do pep talks, he had to scream something,
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: and he posted it on Twitter. It sounded very much
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: like a pep talk, Bone. Woos involved, a lot of
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: screaming involved.
• 16:30
  Speaker 9: He also invited me to go to Tassel's last night.
• 16:32
  Speaker 3: Oh, how about that? Talk about a woo. I couldn't
• 16:35
  Speaker 3: do that, though. I was occupied. Oh, you've got to
• 16:38
  Speaker 3: behave yourself now.
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: But you were out eating a fine steak dinner with
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: your lady, though, Fit.
• 16:43
  Speaker 3: I did. Damn, you got your life coming together, Fit.
• 16:45
  Speaker 3: Did she pay for the birthday meal?
• 16:46
  Speaker 9: She did.
• 16:47
  Speaker 3: Oh, Fit, you got a good one there, Fit. Damn,
• 16:50
  Speaker 3: you got a good one. Boom, boom, boom.
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: Did you order, like, were you respectful of the order,
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: or did you just go all in on this?
• 16:56
  Speaker 9: No, I got just a simple six-ounce steak.
• 16:59
  Speaker 3: Six-ounce?
• 17:00
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you did go respectful. When Flounder bought the night before,
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: did you stick to six ounces? He ordered eight, so
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: I ordered eight.
• 17:08
  Speaker 3: Okay, all right.
• 17:09
  Speaker 9: Because if Flounder would have ordered a six-ounce steak, I
• 17:11
  Speaker 9: would have ordered six. But he ordered first. He ordered eight.
• 17:13
  Speaker 9: I said, well... I'm going to order eight. She wanted
• 17:16
  Speaker 9: to call in and sing happy birthday to me yesterday.
• 17:18
  Speaker 5: Oh, damn.
• 17:19
  Speaker 3: How did we miss out on that?
• 17:20
  Speaker 9: She is terrified of y'all.
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: Oh, yeah. I can see that. Most women are.
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: What's terrifying about this show?
• 17:26
  Speaker 3: Shout out to Weatherman Mark. Boom, boom, boom. Tell her
• 17:29
  Speaker 3: I'll do it. She sings it. I'll do the boom, boom,
• 17:31
  Speaker 3: booms in the background. Oh, God.
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: We got some characters out there listening to this damn show, man.
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: Y'all crack me up.
• 17:44
  Speaker 3: What is that? What's going on over there? Pull yourself together, Bo.
• 17:47
  Speaker 3: You're going to sit at the break now. Pull yourself
• 17:49
  Speaker 3: together over there, kid.
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: Boom, boom, boom.
• 17:52
  Speaker 3: He's sitting at the break, man. All right, I'm going
• 17:55
  Speaker 3: to send it to break here.
• 17:56
  Speaker 6: I beat myself.
• 17:57
  Speaker 5: Bonus.
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: I think I dribbled myself.
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: When we come back, Zach Gelb joins us. I'm not
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: sure he's going to do a music routine with the
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: Boom Booms. What did he think of the Panthers' performance
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: against the Falcons? And we got to ask him, does
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: he think the Packers are absolute dog crap? Like, is
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: that going to stick all season? We'll talk to Zach
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: Gelb about the NFL next. And a little college football.

• 18:42
  Speaker 1: Sports Radio 92.7 WFNZ. How do we, how do we
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: top the last segment, Bone? Weatherman Mark's pep talk turned
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: into some amazing musical extravaganza.
• 18:56
  Speaker 3: It really did, baby. Nicely produced. It really did. It
• 18:58
  Speaker 3: really did.
• 18:59

  Speaker 1: see what he thinks, Bone, about the Panthers. They've got
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: the first dub of the season, beating up on old
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: Cooper Rush and Jack Strand. We also have to have
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: a Packer conversation after last night. And I'm sure we'll
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: work some college football in, some big games in college football.
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: And Tecate's coming up as well, right? Tecate's pick's coming up.
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: He's asked me if he can do a bonus pick.
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: He wants to do four this week. So I told
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: him I'd give him a bonus. pick this week. Yeah,
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: that's fine. Just not 104 like he wrote down. He
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: needs to narrow them down from 100 to three, and
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: it's kind of tough. But let's bring in Gelby right now.
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: Zach Gelb, very cool news that you informed me of, Bone.
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: He's working with NFL Radio now, Compass Media. He's in
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: the studio for these NFL games, including Ravens and Cowboys
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: on Sunday, and we're talking ball with him right now.
• 20:13
  Speaker 3: Zach Gelb. Gelby, what's going on, brother? How you feeling? Guys,
• 20:17
  Speaker 3: I'm doing well.
• 20:18
  Speaker 8: B plus.
• 20:19
  Speaker 7: I forgot about the victory dance video. So I was
• 20:21
  Speaker 7: on hold.
• 20:22
  Speaker 8: I was trying to locate it bone tweets too much.
• 20:24
  Speaker 8: So it took me way too long to find it,
• 20:26
  Speaker 8: but I eventually did. And here's my breakdown. The old
• 20:29
  Speaker 8: geezer in the beginning was a good addition. Bone starting
• 20:33
  Speaker 8: to look a little bit like a woman, a nice
• 20:35
  Speaker 8: backside on him. And Matt, I think you've lost a
• 20:38
  Speaker 8: few pounds.
• 20:39
  Speaker 7: You're looking good, brother.
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: How about that, baby? I'll take it. I'll take it, man.
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: What doubt there's no for your compliment.
• 20:43
  Speaker 8: Also.
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: I think it's a compliment. How's there no comment on Finney.
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: I feel like he was very notable in that dance.
• 20:50
  Speaker 7: Oh, I only got through the first 30 seconds. Did
• 20:52
  Speaker 7: Fitty come.
• 20:52
  Speaker 8: In at the end with the bra on?
• 20:54
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: Actually, you know what? Talk about nice backsides. Actually, close
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: that out right now. We actually have a controversy right
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: now with Fitty, Zach. We'll bring you in real quick.
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: He's got a new girlfriend. She took him out for
• 21:06
  Speaker 2: a birthday. His birthday was yesterday. She took him out
• 21:09
  Speaker 2: to dinner, paid for it. So she was paying for it.
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: So Fitty only ordered... a six ounce steak to be
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: respectful that she was paying for. And our text line
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: is now saying, Finney's not a real man. Real men
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: don't order less than 12 ounce steaks. The guy's getting shredded, Gobi,
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: but he's trying to be a nice guy.
• 21:26
  Speaker 8: <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL>.
• 21:34
  Speaker 3: <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL>.
• 21:35
  Speaker 8: <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL>.
• 21:39
  Speaker 7: <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL>.
• 21:40
  Speaker 8: <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL> <HAL>
• 21:41
  Speaker 8: So get whatever you want. Cause you're going to have
• 21:44
  Speaker 8: to give her so much more through the year. And
• 21:46
  Speaker 8: here's the crazy point.
• 21:47
  Speaker 3: That's a good point.
• 21:48
  Speaker 8: My girlfriend this year took me out for a lovely
• 21:50
  Speaker 8: dinner down at the Jersey shore. My parents called the
• 21:54
  Speaker 8: restaurant and paid for the bill. And they thought they
• 21:56
  Speaker 8: were being nice.
• 21:57
  Speaker 7: I said, guys, you know, wait for another day. This
• 21:59
  Speaker 7: is the one time she actually has to pay.
• 22:01
  Speaker 3: What are we doing here?
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: Oh, she must've loved that. That's hilarious.
• 22:07
  Speaker 3: That's rough. Gelby. That is rough there. Nice parents.
• 22:11
  Speaker 8: It's like being a Falcons fan.
• 22:16
  Speaker 3: Or as being a Packer fan.
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: Even worse, I wonder. Let's start with that and then
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: we'll get to the Panthers. I mean, does Michael Penix
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: make that much of a difference? Like, what did you
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: think of last night's game?
• 22:27
  Speaker 3: And I mean, is Green Bay just horrid? I mean, God,
• 22:30
  Speaker 3: that was brutal.
• 22:32
  Speaker 7: Well, the Packers, they, they can't block.
• 22:35
  Speaker 8: They don't even try to run the football and they
• 22:38
  Speaker 8: can't defend the run. So you can't do those three things.
• 22:40
  Speaker 8: You're not going to win many games in this league. And,
• 22:43
  Speaker 8: you know, in March or April, I said a take
• 22:46
  Speaker 8: people were looking like for bold predictions. And I got,
• 22:47
  Speaker 8: I don't think the Packers are gonna make the playoffs
• 22:49
  Speaker 8: this year. I didn't think it was that bold of
• 22:50
  Speaker 8: a take because they've been teetering.
• 22:52
  Speaker 7: On missing the playoffs the last two years.
• 22:54
  Speaker 8: I didn't know what was going to happen with Josh
• 22:55
  Speaker 8: Jacobs at the time, but Micah Parsons wasn't going to
• 22:58
  Speaker 8: be there to start the season. And I just didn't
• 22:59
  Speaker 8: love what I was seeing with this team. I like,
• 23:03
  Speaker 8: here's the thing. I, and I said this on NFL
• 23:05
  Speaker 8: radio last night, Falcons fans should be excited that they're
• 23:08
  Speaker 8: now back in the mix. Let's see what they do
• 23:09
  Speaker 8: up against the same. So they could even this out
• 23:11
  Speaker 8: to two and two next week, or if they're just
• 23:13
  Speaker 8: going to go to one and three, but I'm not
• 23:15
  Speaker 8: this big believer in Michael Penix jr. But if you
• 23:18
  Speaker 8: just get competent quarterback play and he started off the
• 23:20
  Speaker 8: game poorly through the interception was one to five and
• 23:23
  Speaker 8: then relied on Bijan found Drake London did a nice job,
• 23:27
  Speaker 8: and they were able to get the victory. Last night, yes,
• 23:30
  Speaker 8: it does save the Falcons' season, but I think it's
• 23:32
  Speaker 8: more of an indictment on the Packers than, oh my
• 23:35
  Speaker 8: goodness gracious, the Falcons are this force to.
• 23:37
  Speaker 4: Be reckoned with.
• 23:38
  Speaker 2: As far as the Panthers go, Gelby, quite a different
• 23:42
  Speaker 2: feeling and different vibes right now when we talk Panthers.
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: When you watch this Panthers offense, how sustainable, within reason obviously,
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: but how sustainable do you think this offensive start is
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: for Bryce Young and this offense?
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 23:57
  Speaker 8: I don't think they're going to be scoring 34, 35
• 23:59
  Speaker 8: points each and every week, but this is the continuation
• 24:03
  Speaker 8: of the, of the, just the Bryce young train moving
• 24:05
  Speaker 8: in the right direction. And I know the last year
• 24:08
  Speaker 8: and a half, he's taken some massive strides and now
• 24:11
  Speaker 8: you just want to see the consistency, but offensively the
• 24:15
  Speaker 8: first two weeks, you couldn't ask for much more. I
• 24:16
  Speaker 8: know you would have liked to got the first win
• 24:18
  Speaker 8: to start off the season. And the defense was just horrific,
• 24:21
  Speaker 8: but the two wide receivers and I know Ted one
• 24:23
  Speaker 8: rookie of the year last year, um, are, are playing
• 24:25
  Speaker 8: really well. Uh, Bryce is, is doing what they're asking
• 24:28
  Speaker 8: him to do. And, but the thing is, and I
• 24:30
  Speaker 8: don't know if you guys have this take, um, and,
• 24:33
  Speaker 8: and you guys watch it more intently than me, they
• 24:34
  Speaker 8: got to get more on the ground, uh, rushing the football.
• 24:37
  Speaker 8: They need a little bit more of that balance.
• 24:39
  Speaker 3: Definitely.
• 24:40
  Speaker 8: And that's something that's going to be a work in progress.
• 24:42
  Speaker 8: But through the first two games, just offensively, yeah, you've
• 24:45
  Speaker 8: got to be a pig rolling in doo-doo with the
• 24:48
  Speaker 8: way that their offense is playing.
• 24:49
  Speaker 3: No doubt. I like how Gelb resorts to things that
• 24:51
  Speaker 3: we just relate to. Oh, yeah, take a doo-doo. There
• 24:53
  Speaker 3: you go. You're speaking our language, Gelb. Zach Gelb is
• 24:55
  Speaker 3: with us talking football. I know my target audience.
• 24:57
  Speaker 8: True, very true.
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: Talking football with Gelb as we do every Friday. So, Gelb,
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: I mean, I hesitate to ask this two weeks in,
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: but we've been talking about.
• 25:05
  Speaker 3: Ourselves, so I'm going to bring you in on it.
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: Like, do you feel like, yeah, Bryce is this dude now?
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: Or do you still have part of you that is like,
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: he's been inconsistent. I don't know if he can keep
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: this sort of thing up. Like, how are you viewing
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: what you've seen from him two weeks in?
• 25:23
  Speaker 8: Well, like if you're asking me, should they go pay
• 25:25
  Speaker 8: him 55, $ 60 million a year? And do I feel
• 25:27
  Speaker 8: like he's a 55, $ 60 million a year quarterback? I don't,
• 25:32
  Speaker 8: but he's been good. And that's the thing. Like, there's
• 25:35
  Speaker 8: just a lot of quarterbacks that are just good. You know,
• 25:38
  Speaker 8: in the NFL, like I don't look at Bryce right
• 25:40
  Speaker 8: now and say, oh my God. he's definitely a top
• 25:43
  Speaker 8: 10 quarterback, but could he be eventually a fringe top
• 25:46
  Speaker 8: 10 quarterback? I guess he can be so, but this
• 25:49
  Speaker 8: is a guy that was thrown into a corner. Everyone
• 25:51
  Speaker 8: thought his career was over. Everyone thought he was a
• 25:53
  Speaker 8: bust CJ Stroud's better and he's playing better than, than
• 25:57
  Speaker 8: CJ Stroud right now. And the last year and a half,
• 26:00
  Speaker 8: he saved his career. And I just, as we said, even,
• 26:03
  Speaker 8: you know, at the end of last season, don't give
• 26:05
  Speaker 8: him a contract extension and let's see where we are
• 26:07
  Speaker 8: at the end of this season. But through the first
• 26:09
  Speaker 8: two weeks, Man, what is there really to critique with
• 26:12
  Speaker 8: the individual play of Bryce Young? I don't have much.
• 26:16
  Speaker 2: Zach, how much better do you feel about the defense
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: compared to week one? And where do you think the
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: truth may lie with the defense? Is it somewhere in between?
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: Or do you think this defense can be pretty damn
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: good based off what you saw last week?
• 26:30
  Speaker 7: Speaker 0 5th.
• 26:30
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 26:30
  Speaker 7: It's tough.
• 26:30
  Speaker 8: Cause I know everyone slammed them after the Chicago game.
• 26:33
  Speaker 8: I don't think they were as bad as what they
• 26:34
  Speaker 8: put on performance up against Chicago, but then on the
• 26:37
  Speaker 8: other side with the crappy quarterback that you guys were
• 26:40
  Speaker 8: going up against last week, I don't think that that
• 26:42
  Speaker 8: as dominant as they are.
• 26:44
  Speaker 7: So there's probably somewhere in between.
• 26:47
  Speaker 8: And if this could be, you know, a top 15 defense,
• 26:50
  Speaker 8: you know, maybe they could creep into the top 10.
• 26:51
  Speaker 8: You know, I liked the moves that they They made
• 26:53
  Speaker 8: this off.
• 26:53
  Speaker 7: Season, bringing in Devin Lloyd.
• 26:55
  Speaker 8: Bobby O'Kerrick has been around the league for a while.
• 26:57
  Speaker 8: He's a real solid football player coming over from the giants.
• 27:00
  Speaker 8: And before that being a tackle machine with the Indianapolis Colts,
• 27:04
  Speaker 8: but if they could just get average defensive play, which
• 27:07
  Speaker 8: they're more than capable of doing. And the offense continues
• 27:09
  Speaker 8: to light it up the way that.
• 27:10
  Speaker 4: They have been.
• 27:11
  Speaker 8: Why can't they go nine and eight? Like why can't
• 27:14
  Speaker 8: they go maybe 10 and seven and win this division?
• 27:17
  Speaker 8: Like right now, when I look.
• 27:18
  Speaker 7: At it, the two best teams in this division are are.
• 27:20
  Speaker 8: The saints and, and the Panthers. I picked the saints
• 27:23
  Speaker 8: to win the division before the season started. And I
• 27:26
  Speaker 8: really liked what I'm seeing by Tyler shock. I think
• 27:28
  Speaker 8: I said last night that they were two and oh,
• 27:29
  Speaker 8: and it almost felt like that win week one, that
• 27:32
  Speaker 8: lost week one was a win up against Detroit. But that's,
• 27:36
  Speaker 8: you know, that they're a team that I liked their quarterback.
• 27:38
  Speaker 8: I liked their running backs.
• 27:39
  Speaker 7: They got good wide receivers.
• 27:40
  Speaker 8: Yeah. I know Tyson is out right now and they
• 27:42
  Speaker 8: have a solid defense, but I, it feels like right
• 27:45
  Speaker 8: now it's the saints and the Panthers in this division.
• 27:47
  Speaker 8: I know the Falcons stabilized thing last night, but I'm
• 27:52
  Speaker 8: not still totally bought in on them. And then man,
• 27:55
  Speaker 8: the box, that was a rough one last week up
• 27:56
  Speaker 8: against Cleveland.
• 27:57
  Speaker 3: No doubt.
• 27:57
  Speaker 2: Now. Okay.
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: So the Panthers got Cleveland this week. What, um, how
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: do you view this as like, should we be concerned
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: to Sean Watson actually played a good game last week?
• 28:07
  Speaker 3: How do you think, how do you evaluate Panthers and Browns?
• 28:11
  Speaker 8: Like we just got into the conversation. Are the Panthers
• 28:13
  Speaker 8: a good football team? We'll find out this weekend because
• 28:16
  Speaker 8: good football teams beat up on inferior football teams, specifically
• 28:19
  Speaker 8: when the inferior football team just got this victory and
• 28:23
  Speaker 8: they're going to be riding high. We know Cleveland has
• 28:25
  Speaker 8: a good defense offensively.
• 28:27
  Speaker 5: I have zero.
• 28:28
  Speaker 8: Respect for Deshaun Watson. I know that he won the
• 28:31
  Speaker 8: game last week. you know, I'll give him credit for
• 28:33
  Speaker 8: a week and he could show you some of those
• 28:35
  Speaker 8: old flashes, but I do not think that that's going
• 28:39
  Speaker 8: to be sustainable through the course of a 17 game season.
• 28:42
  Speaker 8: And I believe you'll have more week one Deshaun Watson
• 28:44
  Speaker 8: than week two Deshaun Watson. So if the Panthers are
• 28:47
  Speaker 8: really turning this thing in the right direction. you don't
• 28:50
  Speaker 8: only just beat Cleveland, you beat them comfortably this weekend.
• 28:53
  Speaker 3: I like it, Gelby. I like it, man. Gelby pumping
• 28:56
  Speaker 3: us up a little bit here.
• 28:56
  Speaker 2: We'll be following all your thoughts on social media, on Twitter,
• 29:00
  Speaker 2: at ZachGel. We encourage all the listeners to give you
• 29:03
  Speaker 2: a follow for all your takes. I think they might
• 29:06
  Speaker 2: actually send nice tweets to you. You're talking nice about
• 29:09
  Speaker 2: the Panthers.
• 29:09
  Speaker 3: Kelby. I like this.
• 29:11
  Speaker 8: Here's the thing, Mac, you know, you look like a
• 29:14
  Speaker 8: Vanna white standing next to bone and Fitty in that video.
• 29:18
  Speaker 2: Now we're talking about that. People call me very white. Oh,
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: somebody asked somebody very white.
• 29:26
  Speaker 8: Somebody has asked how my friends at a Lake Norman
• 29:28
  Speaker 8: doing this year. My buddy who I grew up with
• 29:30
  Speaker 8: Spencer Lasker is one of their offensive line coach. I
• 29:33
  Speaker 8: saw their quarterback, Caden craft.
• 29:35
  Speaker 7: Committed to Tennessee. So, you know, isn't.
• 29:38
  Speaker 5: That your school bone?
• 29:39
  Speaker 2: No, Well, it's this, it's the school that is near me.
• 29:42
  Speaker 2: I did not go there. You claim them though. Bone
• 29:44
  Speaker 2: is your favorite or you went off.
• 29:46
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 29:47
  Speaker 3: They're five and Oh, Gelby. They're balling dude.
• 29:50
  Speaker 7: Yeah, and Coach Lasker has him stout up front.
• 29:54
  Speaker 8: And I know this, that quarterback, man, I've been following
• 29:58
  Speaker 8: him the last two years.
• 29:59
  Speaker 7: He's a player. He got a lot of big-time offers,
• 30:02
  Speaker 7: and he ended up going to Tennessee.
• 30:03
  Speaker 2: He's a player. They've won by 47, 28, 49, 41,
• 30:07
  Speaker 2: and then seven last week. Now that I know they're undefeated, Gelby,
• 30:10
  Speaker 2: then they are my team.
• 30:11
  Speaker 3: They beat my son's high school 47-0, Gelby. It was ugly.
• 30:15
  Speaker 5: Good.
• 30:16
  Speaker 2: Good.
• 30:16
  Speaker 7: They should have run up the score a little bit.
• 30:18
  Speaker 4: Oh, my gosh.
• 30:20
  Speaker 7: I used to do these segments and that we would
• 30:24
  Speaker 7: talk about no offenses. Now we've got two teams in
• 30:26
  Speaker 7: town that can't, they keep on scoring the prices going
• 30:29
  Speaker 7: up and up and up.
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: And even 50 scoring now, you know what I mean?
• 30:32
  Speaker 3: There's so much scoring here, baby.
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: I have a late Norman T-shirt at home. There you go.
• 30:36
  Speaker 2: There you go.
• 30:37
  Speaker 3: I Galby enjoy the football brother.
• 30:40
  Speaker 7: You got it, guys.
• 30:41
  Speaker 8: I'll talk to you next week.
• 30:41
  Speaker 3: All right. There you go.
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: Zach Gelb, who even has a favorite high school here
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: in the Charlotte metro area.
• 30:46
  Speaker 3: Imagine that. All right. Fit, did we do your updates?
• 30:51
  Speaker 2: I'm old.
• 30:51
  Speaker 3: We got Picante here. Oh, Picante. Oh, crap. I forgot
• 30:55
  Speaker 3: about Picante, dude.
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: Yep. Oh, man.
• 30:58
  Speaker 3: My bad. That's why I kept talking. He's there, right, Fit?
• 31:01
  Speaker 3: Or he's trying to get them now. He's getting in
• 31:02
  Speaker 3: the line. Oh, that's on me, man.
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: I forgot. I was wondering why you wanted to wrap
• 31:07
  Speaker 2: that up. I was just going to keep talking to
• 31:08
  Speaker 2: Galby about it. Yeah, we mentioned Picante, I don't know,
• 31:11
  Speaker 2: right when that segment started.
• 31:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we did. My memory's horrible, dude. I'm going to
• 31:14
  Speaker 3: tell you something I did yesterday. It's embarrassing.
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: And maybe my mom's memory's really rough right now. I'm
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: afraid I'm headed down the same path. I sat my phone.
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: I went to the bathroom. I sat my phone on
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: the thing that holds the toilet paper. You had a
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: toilet paper holder.
• 31:29
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 31:29
  Speaker 3: I mean, why wouldn't you do that?
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: So I sat my phone on that, went to the
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: bathroom and left and thought, oh yeah, I didn't bring
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: my phone in here with me. When two minutes before
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: I sat it down in the bathroom, I'm like, where
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: is my brain, bro? It must be the IPAs killing
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: the damn brain cells. Haven't you left your phone in
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: the bathroom here a lot? Yeah, about 17 times.
• 31:50
  Speaker 5: Seriously.
• 31:51
  Speaker 9: You left it in here yesterday, and I've got it
• 31:53
  Speaker 9: for you.
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: That's where it was. I, like, thought it was, like, oh, no,
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: that's a separate. I did that twice yesterday. I forgot
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: about that. I left my phone in here, didn't know
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: where it was. Before that, in the morning, I left
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: it in the bathroom, didn't know where it was.
• 32:07
  Speaker 2: We got to get to Picante because he's got to
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: get off the phone line to text us.
• 32:10
  Speaker 3: I'm like Grandpa, bro. All right, Picante's ready now.
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: Let's do it baby let's do it picante gets a
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: bonus pick this week he did have his first losing
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: week last week one and two but we're sticking with
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: this man we believe there is gold to be mined
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: with his picks picante's picks baby what's up picante what's going.
• 32:27
  Speaker 5: On welcome back guys oh my god what a week
• 32:31
  Speaker 5: what a terrible.
• 32:32
  Speaker 3: Week man you had a rough week last week.
• 32:35
  Speaker 5: Oh, man, my personal pick, he was even worse. It
• 32:38
  Speaker 5: was like six out of 17. My wife didn't even cook.
• 32:42
  Speaker 5: It was bad.
• 32:43
  Speaker 3: But you had no money to cook with. You lost
• 32:46
  Speaker 3: it all.
• 32:48
  Speaker 5: I asked her, I was like, so what are you
• 32:50
  Speaker 5: making on Sunday? And she was like, I'm not making
• 32:53
  Speaker 5: any cookies. And I'm like, damn, man.
• 32:55
  Speaker 2: We got to get you back to the big piece
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: of chicken, brother. What's the four picks, Pee?
• 33:01
  Speaker 5: All right, my first one, so we cannot wait for
• 33:03
  Speaker 5: the weekend. It will be Temple today, plus three and
• 33:06
  Speaker 5: a half.
• 33:07
  Speaker 3: Okay. Who are you picking?
• 33:09
  Speaker 5: Temple. Temple against Army, four o'clock, plus three and a half.
• 33:15
  Speaker 5: Temple's playing really well. This is the first game that
• 33:17
  Speaker 5: they're not going to play like a big team. All right.
• 33:23
  Speaker 5: The next one will be Wake Forest and Louisville on
• 33:27
  Speaker 5: the over. He's being magnificent. So I like that game
• 33:34
  Speaker 5: on the over in a shootout. Maybe wait for it.
• 33:36
  Speaker 5: We'll make it close. But I think Luke is a
• 33:39
  Speaker 5: better team. But on the over, 57 and a half.
• 33:42
  Speaker 3: Okay. I like that. I like that.
• 33:45
  Speaker 5: My second one will be my boo, Drew Missmaker. You
• 33:51
  Speaker 5: can't quit him, man. No, no. I mean, he's been great.
• 33:55
  Speaker 5: Come on, guys.
• 33:56
  Speaker 3: That's true.
• 33:57
  Speaker 5: I'm going with another shootout there, 59 and a half.
• 34:01
  Speaker 5: The line went up to 61 and a half, so
• 34:03
  Speaker 5: I'm going to go with 61 and a half on
• 34:05
  Speaker 5: the over.
• 34:06
  Speaker 3: You love yourself some overs, don't you?
• 34:09
  Speaker 2: Are you related to him by some chance?
• 34:14
  Speaker 5: Wait for the last one then. It's going to be
• 34:17
  Speaker 5: the biggest over, though.
• 34:18
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 34:19
  Speaker 5: So my last one will be Oregon against USC over
• 34:23
  Speaker 5: 61 and a half. America cannot live without Oregon being
• 34:29
  Speaker 5: out of the playoff so early. So I believe this
• 34:32
  Speaker 5: is going to be a battle.
• 34:34
  Speaker 3: I like that. Both defenses have issues. I like that one.
• 34:36
  Speaker 3: You have Temple, then you have the Overs.
• 34:38
  Speaker 5: I really put a thought about it. I need to
• 34:40
  Speaker 5: go 4-0 so I can make it next week. But
• 34:43
  Speaker 5: if not, man, it's been great, man. It's been amazing.
• 34:45
  Speaker 3: Hey, we might keep you going, baby. We might not
• 34:47
  Speaker 3: quit on you.
• 34:48
  Speaker 2: So you have Temple and the Overs in Wake, Louisville,
• 34:51
  Speaker 2: Oklahoma State, West Virginia, Oregon, USA.
• 34:54
  Speaker 3: There you go. Wait, wait, wait.
• 34:56
  Speaker 5: Tempo is actually game, plus three and a half.
• 34:58
  Speaker 3: Okay, three and a half. Tempo plus three and a half.
• 35:00
  Speaker 3: There you go. He's the only one that I have
• 35:03
  Speaker 3: in game.
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: We have a texter that's weighing in. He says, we
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: could just save some time and just say, Picante likes
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: every college football over this week.
• 35:15
  Speaker 3: All right, brother. May the points be scored, man. All right.
• 35:18
  Speaker 3: Good luck.
• 35:18
  Speaker 5: All right. Thank you, guys. Thank you so much. All right.
• 35:20
  Speaker 3: There you go.
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: Picante picks, man. Trying to bounce back after last week's
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: one and two.
• 35:24
  Speaker 3: We come back.
• 35:24
  Speaker 2: It's the wrap-up on Sports Radio 92.7 WFNZ.
• 35:39
  Speaker 3: The Browns is the Browns. Browns are going to Browns that.
• 35:48
  Speaker 4: Okay. So the guys took that to heart. Thank you.
• 35:53
  Speaker 3: Thank you. Oh man. Another way.
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: I said earlier in the week bone, one of my
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: goals is to have the Browns fans booing Deshaun Watson.
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: That's that'll be a sign that our defense is all
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: over them.
• 36:04
  Speaker 5: Right.
• 36:04
  Speaker 3: Making them look bad. Not like last week.
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: The other thing I'm looking for is I want to
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: beat the Browns in a way that Mike Tomlin is
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: dropping that line. Again, the Browns is the Browns. That's
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: what I want. I want to see that on Sunday
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: night football. We'll see. It seems like we all, well,
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: Finney went three scores galore. Bone and I seem like
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: we have similar scores. What was your final score, Bone?
• 36:26
  Speaker 2: 20 to 10, but maybe 23 to 10. I'm working
• 36:29
  Speaker 2: on it here.
• 36:29
  Speaker 3: I had 20. What did I have?
• 36:30
  Speaker 2: 24, 13.
• 36:30
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: I couldn't remember where my phone was yesterday. I can't
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: remember my pick. Man, help out old grandpa over here.
• 36:41
  Speaker 3: Am I Salania? Am I freaking Salania?
• 36:43
  Speaker 2: There'll be a segment on the show at some point
• 36:46
  Speaker 2: where we have to ask the audience, do we take
• 36:48
  Speaker 2: Max Keys from him yet?
• 36:52
  Speaker 3: Oh, man. All right. Anyway, looking forward to it.
• 36:55
  Speaker 2: You're not having incontinence problems, are you? What does that mean?
• 36:58
  Speaker 8: What?
• 37:00
  Speaker 3: Incontinence. Like, you're not going to the bathroom, like, in
• 37:02
  Speaker 3: your pants, are you? No, no. My dog has that, though.
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: Rocket keeps pooping. He pooped on the floor yesterday. He
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: just leaves a nugget there, dude.
• 37:09
  Speaker 3: Just a nugget.
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: That's all he leaves. No big piles. But the nugget
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: in my daughter's bed the other night, nugget on the floor.
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: I mean, watch out. If Murphy starts that, you've got
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: a real problem over there, Bone. All right. Let's get
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: to the text, shall we? I think I say we
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: wrap this up. Let someone else do this radio thing.
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: We're getting silly. Thank you. Appreciate everybody here. Appreciate Weatherman
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: Mark with that amazing singing pep talk. Appreciate all of
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: y'all tuning in on this show today. Gelby as well.
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: Lee Sterling for joining us and Rodney McLeod. KB and
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: I will be at Twin Peaks in Fort Mill right
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: by Carowinds. 11 a.m. to 1, getting you ready for
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: the game. Countdown to kickoff. You can hear it on
• 37:48
  Speaker 1: WFNZ or come out and see us live. What's going
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: on in sports tonight? You got Indiana Northwestern at 8.
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: You got Clemson and Cal at 1030. Some good college
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: football tonight, Bone.
• 38:02
  Speaker 3: Ain't bad for a Friday.
• 38:03
  Speaker 2: And then next week starts the baseball postseason for the Braves.
• 38:08
  Speaker 2: We're going to have a guest on the show Tuesday
• 38:10
  Speaker 2: to preview that. So I think the best sports time
• 38:13
  Speaker 2: of the year, Mac, love March Madness and all that.
• 38:16
  Speaker 2: But October, when all of the sports start to converge together,
• 38:19
  Speaker 2: October is my favorite sports month, I think.
• 38:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I would like it.
• 38:24
  Speaker 2: March is right there, too, except when, you know, kind
• 38:27
  Speaker 2: of things end up going, you have a lead, you know.
• 38:30
  Speaker 2: Or in April, sometimes you have a lead and then,
• 38:32
  Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying?
• 38:33
  Speaker 3: I would like October. I get you. I feel you.
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: I would like October more if my team was actually
• 38:37
  Speaker 1: in the baseball playoffs. That'd be a nice twist to things. Well,
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: I just meant all the basketballs right there around the corner.
• 38:43
  Speaker 3: You got hockey. Yeah, I see what you're saying. You
• 38:44
  Speaker 3: got the Canes starting on Tuesday night as well next week.
• 38:46
  Speaker 3: I see what you're saying. We got a big FC
• 38:48
  Speaker 3: game tomorrow, too, at the bank against Chicago. And FC's
• 38:51
  Speaker 3: going this weekend. Let's get some of these. You don't say.

• 39:02
  Speaker 1: I just said I couldn't wait for it. It'll be
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: on the third screen tomorrow night. Don't be sarcastic about that.
• 39:07
  Speaker 1: I don't like that tone. I don't like that tone.
• 39:08
  Speaker 9: They're trying to play for top four positioning, Mac.
• 39:11
  Speaker 3: Thank you. They are, sir.
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: They could move up even higher than that. All right,
• 39:14
  Speaker 1: let's read a couple of texts real quick. Bebop says, amazing.
• 39:17
  Speaker 1: Granny Pat and America both celebrating their 250th birthdays this year.

• 39:53
  Speaker 2: That was a typo by me. With the caramel sauce. Yeah,
• 39:56
  Speaker 2: Bojangles is taste testing mini donuts. They taste like biscuits.
• 40:00
  Speaker 2: In the Charlotte area right now. Yeah, they're pretty good.
• 40:02
  Speaker 2: They're kind of like biscuits, it feels like. With sugar
• 40:04
  Speaker 2: all over them. You dump them in that caramel. That's

  Speaker 2: good stuff. When y'all left, there were still three in
