  Speaker 5: kind of a snooze fant but that's all right. Using

  Speaker 5: Yankee Stadium, which I guess NYCFC uses. Anyway, that's a

  Speaker 5: terrible football football pitch awful it is.
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: It's when Charlotte plays there. I just I hate watch

  Speaker 1: How about that the the the Fenway Sports Group owned
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: Liverpool at Yankee stad That's an interesting twist.
• 2:38
  Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, I'm not even sure who organized the game,
• 2:41
  Speaker 5: that it was all Liverpool fans, but I I almost
• 2:45
  Speaker 5: felt like it was a Wrexham organized game. Yeah, but
• 2:49
  Speaker 5: I don't know. I don't really care. It wasn't It
• 2:52
  Speaker 5: wasn't a fun watch. There were only a couple of moments.
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: It's just like NFL preseason like it just it means
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: the real thing is come and soon. I don't know
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: if you watched any of the MLS All Star Game.
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: We had it in Charlotte obviously last night. The crowd, skills,
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: the crowd was The skills was fun. The crowd was
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: so cool. It was a It was such a diverse crowd,
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: like the three I was telling bone. The three big
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: fan bases were obviously Charlotte FFC fans, Sun fans, I mean,
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: and he ends up scoring two goals and making them
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: go crazy.
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: You would not believe the amount.
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: Of South Korea Spur Spurs or LAFC Sun shirts, and
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: then Mexico fans right national team fans. There were four
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: guys from their national team playing for League Amechis, but
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: also just so many kits of like all the different
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: Mexican club team. It was a very It was a
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: It was a sellout lower Bowl, like every ticket they
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: had they sold.
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: It was a good crowd. It was fun. That was
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: a fun one.
• 3:47
  Speaker 5: I enjoyed the skills competition. Tomas Mueller showed that he
• 3:53
  Speaker 5: is funny as all get out, which took me by surprise. Yeah,
• 3:58
  Speaker 5: it's just it's I was stunned when they asked him
• 4:02
  Speaker 5: about you know, how important the trophy was for the
• 4:06
  Speaker 5: shooting competition, which I think they gave him before Evander
• 4:12
  Speaker 5: tied him.
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: Yes, yes they did, and to give it back and
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: he planned to put the crown back. Yeah yeah as well.
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: That was fun.
• 4:20
  Speaker 5: Crowd dead I found that whole thing hysterical, but it
• 4:25
  Speaker 5: was Sun is a global superstar that we didn't realize
• 4:30
  Speaker 5: here until he came here.
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: Uh.
• 4:32
  Speaker 5: And Tottenham's got a lot of fans. Tottenham's a big club.
• 4:35
  Speaker 5: I know several Tottenham fans, so Darren Geant, I'm sure
• 4:40
  Speaker 5: a friend of your show, friend of my show, huge
• 4:43
  Speaker 5: Spurs fans.
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: He's got a sunny shirt that he wears around. Yeah.
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: Oh yes, he was very excited to be sharing a
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: building with him this week.
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: Adam, there are so many layers to unc right now
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: in the story that broke this week. There's there Lombardi,
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: there's Belichick, there's a program as a whole. We'll start
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: with Lombardi. What's your reaction to the news this week
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: he's on paid leave in the overall celebration of college athletics,
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: that Michael Lombardi is now on paid leave.
• 5:18
  Speaker 5: Not good at his job would be the first thing
• 5:21
  Speaker 5: that would like. I'm not sure he's not been good
• 5:25
  Speaker 5: at this job, but not good at the job that
• 5:29
  Speaker 5: he that is on his resume. I think we all
• 5:32
  Speaker 5: know somebody in our professional travels that was never good
• 5:38
  Speaker 5: but always seem to get another job. And I mean
• 5:42
  Speaker 5: I personally worked for somebody who was so terrible at
• 5:46
  Speaker 5: his job and kept getting other jobs because he once
• 5:50
  Speaker 5: had the job, which begs the question does anybody ever
• 5:56
  Speaker 5: check references? I don't know Lombardi who has really been
• 6:03
  Speaker 5: borderline unsuccessful at every step along the way in his
• 6:07
  Speaker 5: professional journey. I don't understand why he kept getting gigs
• 6:12
  Speaker 5: and he's he's he's like he considers himself a genius.
• 6:16
  Speaker 5: Maybe it's because he has typewriter, he owns typewriters, because
• 6:20
  Speaker 5: I mean.
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: That's yeah what I said the other day.
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: We don't we don't know what he did ag, But
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: did he slide up in some DMS or something using
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: a typewriter.
• 6:31
  Speaker 5: Exactly? He left type, he left typewritten notes, or he
• 6:37
  Speaker 5: used white out, remember the old white out stuff? Yeah,
• 6:41
  Speaker 5: stuff like that. Like, here's the thing about it. I mean,
• 6:44
  Speaker 5: I don't know what the nature of the the HR
• 6:47
  Speaker 5: violation is. It was a former front office employee with
• 6:51
  Speaker 5: North Carolina, so it was a football front office employee
• 6:56
  Speaker 5: that filed the HR complaint. I get. I don't know
• 6:59
  Speaker 5: to what level it is. Did he was he telling
• 7:02
  Speaker 5: dirty jokes? I don't know it was he was he
• 7:05
  Speaker 5: brushing up against somebody in the hallway. I have no idea.
• 7:09
  Speaker 5: You know, they'll let them figure that out. It's embarrassing
• 7:12
  Speaker 5: to Bill because Lombardi didn't do a great job here.
• 7:16
  Speaker 5: Although recruiting got better, the portal job they did got better,
• 7:20
  Speaker 5: but it was such a disaster the year before. And
• 7:23
  Speaker 5: we don't really know how good it's gonna be until
• 7:25
  Speaker 5: we see him on the field. But it doesn't really
• 7:29
  Speaker 5: impact this season because this the roster was already put together.
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but it does. It's another mess, you know what
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: I mean?
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: That hurts the reputation when they do you know, the recruiting,
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: do you I've listened to a lot of national podcast
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: talking about this this week, just kind of curious for
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: the national perspective, and we have definitely noticed there is
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: a joy in a glee nationally about this because of
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: the arrogance that Lombardi and Belichick had when they came
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: to Chapel Hill last year. What's it like locally in
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: the triangle? Like, how do you feel? How do the
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: Heels fans that uta me? We talked to a bunch,
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: But how do the Heels fans you talk to feel?
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: Because nationally they all are convinced that he has done
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: after the season and that it'll be two and through
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: and he might not even make it to the season.
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: Like do you view it that way or not that simple?
• 8:24
  Speaker 5: It all depends on how they play. I mean, the
• 8:26
  Speaker 5: schedule's hard. I looked at the schedule and I'm not
• 8:30
  Speaker 5: a I don't like to go, well, they're gonna lose this,
• 8:34
  Speaker 5: lose this, win this, win this right I don't do
• 8:36
  Speaker 5: that because you just don't know. At the beginning of
• 8:38
  Speaker 5: the season, we have no idea what each team is
• 8:40
  Speaker 5: gonna look like. Hey, somebody gave stan for the first
• 8:43
  Speaker 5: place vote even though they were picked seventeen.
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: Probably probably Lombardi.
• 8:49
  Speaker 5: Somebody, somebody, maybe Andrew Luck voted. Somebody sees value in
• 8:55
  Speaker 5: the Stanford Cardinals. Here's the thing. I looked at their
• 8:59
  Speaker 5: schedule and because if if you flip the home and
• 9:03
  Speaker 5: road splits in the ACC, you can make a case
• 9:07
  Speaker 5: that with a better roster, and I've been told that
• 9:10
  Speaker 5: the roster is better. You can make a case for
• 9:12
  Speaker 5: five or six wins if you flipped the home and road.
• 9:15
  Speaker 5: But we can't do that. They play three incredibly losable
• 9:21
  Speaker 5: non conference games TCU in Ireland, Notre Dame, and at
• 9:26
  Speaker 5: Connecticut for some silly reason in November, playing at Connecticut
• 9:33
  Speaker 5: game and they play I mean they their conference schedule
• 9:41
  Speaker 5: is murderous. If you could have one of those in
• 9:45
  Speaker 5: the Accuh, they play a really, really hard conference schedule.
• 9:51
  Speaker 5: I mean I can see two and ten easy for
• 9:54
  Speaker 5: this group, and one of those wins would be East
• 9:56
  Speaker 5: Tennessee State, so well, I mean, we couldn't figure out
• 10:00
  Speaker 5: a way to get Charlotte back on the schedule.
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: Come on, fellas, Oh my god, all the sudden and
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: they nod their heads, Yeah they did.
• 10:15
  Speaker 5: I used that on the show the other day, so
• 10:17
  Speaker 5: I figured I'd run the joke back. Look, you could
• 10:21
  Speaker 5: make a case for two wins, and if they go
• 10:24
  Speaker 5: to and ten, Uh, there's not going to be a
• 10:27
  Speaker 5: year three. I don't think they have the stomach for it.
• 10:30
  Speaker 5: This has been I fear it has been wasted money.
• 10:34
  Speaker 5: But if they can somehow make some of these losses close,
• 10:41
  Speaker 5: win five games even, which would leave him short of
• 10:44
  Speaker 5: a ball. But against that schedule, Uh, if they compete
• 10:49
  Speaker 5: and they played, you know, even lose some tough games
• 10:52
  Speaker 5: against good competition, I could see the case for letting
• 10:55
  Speaker 5: Bill run it back. I don't think Lombardi's coming back.
• 10:58
  Speaker 5: I think that ship sailed. I think when these types
• 11:01
  Speaker 5: of things don't ever really end up as ah, nothing,
• 11:06
  Speaker 5: nothing of the sort. They wouldn't go through the process of,
• 11:11
  Speaker 5: you know, putting them on a leave of absence paid
• 11:13
  Speaker 5: or otherwise if it wasn't serious enough to ultimately spell
• 11:19
  Speaker 5: his demise. But the overarching point about North Carolina is
• 11:24
  Speaker 5: that last year there was a football fascination that was
• 11:29
  Speaker 5: derailed by everything Jordan Hudson, and this year there has
• 11:34
  Speaker 5: been no football fascination. And the only reason why North
• 11:39
  Speaker 5: Carolina is coming up now is because of Mike Lombardi.
• 11:43
  Speaker 5: Everybody moved on and all those people who are talking
• 11:46
  Speaker 5: about this with glee. I mean, and this is really
• 11:49
  Speaker 5: goes folds back into last year, is that it's Belichick
• 11:53
  Speaker 5: who's in national you know, we can just call him
• 11:56
  Speaker 5: a celebrity, so NFL media is still hyper funocused on
• 12:00
  Speaker 5: what he's doing. I wish last year had gone better,
• 12:04
  Speaker 5: even though they were playing better at the end of
• 12:05
  Speaker 5: last year, if they had won, they had made a
• 12:09
  Speaker 5: bowl game, it would have been a better jumping off point.
• 12:13
  Speaker 5: But yeah, I kind of feel like this is the
• 12:15
  Speaker 5: this is the end of it. But who knows, maybe
• 12:17
  Speaker 5: Bill will surprise U.
• 12:18
  Speaker 3: I lost the futures be because I had Bobby Patrino
• 12:21
  Speaker 3: the first one with an HR violation, not Lombardi.
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: Gosh.
• 12:25
  Speaker 5: I actually heard somebody say the stability after hiring Bobby Patrino,
• 12:31
  Speaker 5: and I went.
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: What are we talking about?
• 12:35
  Speaker 5: But I get it from an offensive standpoint. The guy
• 12:38
  Speaker 5: is the guy can coach.
• 12:39
  Speaker 3: You know, it's a mess, but Patrino was running. Says
• 12:42
  Speaker 3: this place mess alright. Anyway, Goldie, you rock man. We'll
• 12:48
  Speaker 3: talk to you next week.
• 12:49
  Speaker 5: Brother, you gotta feels
