Mac & Bone Hour 4: Bryce's Leap Year · Mac & Bone Podcast

Speaker 1: Oh Man, no practice today for the Panthers. By the way,
0:10
Speaker 1: maybe they need to show a little bit after yesterday,
0:12
Speaker 1: getting feisty off day to day. The two more practices
0:16
Speaker 1: before Friday when they travel to Buffalo starters playing for
0:21
Speaker 1: the Bills. We try to do a show, Bone. I
0:23
Speaker 1: feel like where we are talking about the things that
0:26
Speaker 1: the guys in Charlotte are talking about sports fans, guys
0:29
Speaker 1: in general. And let me tell you about a conversation
0:32
Speaker 1: I just had out in the lobby with one Ed Billick,
0:35
Speaker 1: who does a lot of stuff, savvy radio veteran around
0:38
Speaker 1: these parts, does a lot of stuff for WBT. He
0:41
Speaker 1: says to me, Man, what happened to Chris Berman? Did
0:43
Speaker 1: you see that picture of his butt? Chris Berman's butt
0:47
Speaker 1: is trending. Bone, you talked to me about this this
0:50
Speaker 1: morning when you came in.
0:52
Speaker 2: I didn't think that would be happening. But here we say, yeah,
0:55
Speaker 2: it's disappeared. Then it used to be ginormous. Where's it
0:58
Speaker 2: at the best when someone underneath the comment said Berman
1:02
Speaker 2: has lost that is the best way to put it. Anyway,
1:06
Speaker 2: I guess good for you. Good for you there, Boomer.
1:09
Speaker 2: All right, our next guest signed up for none of this.
1:11
Speaker 3: Bone.
1:11
Speaker 1: He did not know this was going to be the
1:14
Speaker 1: lead in for his segment. Don't know if he has
1:17
Speaker 1: any information as an ESPN employee, but if he has
1:19
Speaker 1: any information about these boomer backside developments, my son here
1:23
Speaker 1: for that. My sense is he'd like to stick to
1:25
Speaker 1: college football, which he knows well, and especially college football
1:30
Speaker 1: into Carolina's man, being a guy down there in the
1:32
Speaker 1: Palmetto State, he knows it well down there. And let's
1:36
Speaker 1: talk some college football with one of ESPN's play by
1:39
Speaker 1: play voices, Roy Philpott, who joins us here on the
1:42
Speaker 1: Mack and Bone Show. Roy, thank you for coming on.
1:45
Speaker 3: Man. How you doing, gentlemen?
1:47
Speaker 4: Doing well? Excited for college football? I have no insider
1:51
Speaker 4: knowledge on the rear end of boom, but I have
1:56
Speaker 4: I have seen the topic trending this morning. It had
1:59
Speaker 4: a good chuckle and just you know, I don't really
2:01
Speaker 4: know him very well, but I'm sure he was probably
2:04
Speaker 4: laughing at himself just knowing it personality.
2:07
Speaker 3: That's hilarious.
2:08
Speaker 2: Well, well, you're here for college football talk, of course,
2:10
Speaker 2: and you know here a want to talk about Clemson
2:13
Speaker 2: in the state of the program. How how do they
2:17
Speaker 2: get back to a level of dominance that they once had,
2:20
Speaker 2: or do you think in this era that that Clemson
2:22
Speaker 2: is no longer that team anymore, that program anymore.
2:26
Speaker 4: Well, I think it's tough for the fun of dominance
2:30
Speaker 4: that the Clemson had playing essentially for what four national championships,
2:35
Speaker 4: winning two and just stockpiling talent, especially at quarterback and
2:39
Speaker 4: on the defensive line. Alabama did it in the last decade.
2:43
Speaker 4: I know, Georgia kind of did it at the early
2:44
Speaker 4: stages of this decade. You know, Ohio State, I would argue, guys'
2:48
Speaker 4: is still kind of doing it. But in this era,
2:51
Speaker 4: it just feels like it's it's hard to build that
2:54
Speaker 4: super team the way maybe that we saw it, you know,
2:57
Speaker 4: eight to ten years ago. So no, I mean, I
2:59
Speaker 4: think it's unlikely that they get back to, you know,
3:01
Speaker 4: competing for national championships every other year. But can they
3:04
Speaker 4: go back to the playoff? Can they make runs in
3:07
Speaker 4: the ACC? Could they make a run in the Atlantic
3:09
Speaker 4: Coast Conference this year?
3:10
Speaker 5: Yeah?
3:10
Speaker 4: I think the answer is yes. Now they're going to
3:12
Speaker 4: have to deal with Miami. But they get Miami at
3:15
Speaker 4: home this season, which I think is helpful, and you know,
3:18
Speaker 4: maybe that's the first of two meetings, or maybe it's
3:20
Speaker 4: SMU's time and Brett Lashley or Louisville or you know,
3:23
Speaker 4: can Virginia build upon what Tony Elliott did last year?
3:27
Speaker 4: So no, I think the road to get back to
3:29
Speaker 4: that level of dominance is really hard to picture and
3:32
Speaker 4: hard to fathom. But can they be a much better
3:36
Speaker 4: version of themselves losing close games the way that they
3:39
Speaker 4: did last year, you know, to Syracuse and to Duke
3:42
Speaker 4: and you know, things like that. Yeah, I think they
3:46
Speaker 4: can be much better than that. And I would think
3:48
Speaker 4: that they're better than that this year. Are they a
3:50
Speaker 4: playoff team this year? I got my doubts, but I
3:52
Speaker 4: think that they could win you know, eight or nine games.
3:54
Speaker 4: That'd be in the conversation by the time we get
3:56
Speaker 4: to November.
3:57
Speaker 1: Roy one of the fascinating things about Clinton and I,
4:00
Speaker 1: I know I'm preaching a choir with with your knowledge
4:02
Speaker 1: of the program and the fan base, but like, you know,
4:04
Speaker 1: fans trying to figure out what's a fair expectation for Dabbo,
4:10
Speaker 1: you know, like and and some maybe they're not being fair.
4:13
Speaker 1: Some are like, hey, let's you get back to where
4:15
Speaker 1: you were. We want to move on. It's a different era.
4:17
Speaker 1: It's a different time in college sports, and he hasn't
4:22
Speaker 1: you know, thrived in it like he did the previous era.
4:24
Speaker 1: So like, what do you think the like what's fair expectations?
4:29
Speaker 1: Like ten and two, nine and three, Like, how do
4:32
Speaker 1: you how would you describe that to fans on what
4:34
Speaker 1: what would be a fair expectation?
4:36
Speaker 5: Now, yeah, well, coming.
4:38
Speaker 4: Off with seven and six, I mean you start with
4:40
Speaker 4: the bottom line of all right, can you get to
4:42
Speaker 4: eight wins? Can you be bad eight wins by the
4:45
Speaker 4: time you get to mid November? But I think really,
4:48
Speaker 4: you know, I would set the bar at nine and three.
4:51
Speaker 4: Like if you were nine and three, maybe you beat
4:53
Speaker 4: a team you weren't supposed to. Maybe that team is Miami, Uh,
4:57
Speaker 4: you know, maybe it's somebody else. If you got to
4:59
Speaker 4: nine and three and you're in the mix to go
5:02
Speaker 4: to Charlotte and go to the ACC Championship and be
5:04
Speaker 4: a playoff consider remember, guys, this year the collegetball playoff
5:07
Speaker 4: is different. The ACC champion the power forour champions all
5:12
Speaker 4: get the automatic invite to the playoffs. So like you
5:15
Speaker 4: do have that free pass if you can just find
5:17
Speaker 4: a way to get back to Charlotte and win that
5:19
Speaker 4: game you're in regardless of win. So I think a
5:21
Speaker 4: if you could get to the playoff no matter how,
5:23
Speaker 4: that would certainly I think you're overachieving this coming season.
5:28
Speaker 4: But if you're in the conversation in November, I think
5:29
Speaker 4: Clemson fans expect to be kind of in that mix.
5:33
Speaker 4: But realistically, I think you'd have to be happy with
5:36
Speaker 4: nine and three, Like if you can somehow find a
5:38
Speaker 4: way to get to nine and three. You know, you
5:41
Speaker 4: don't look hideous in the opener against LSU, you're competitive
5:44
Speaker 4: against Miami, maybe have a chance there. You don't get
5:47
Speaker 4: tripped up against Syracuse or you know some of those
5:49
Speaker 4: other teams that you're massively favored against. To me, just
5:53
Speaker 4: substantial improvement and the optics look substantially better and get
5:57
Speaker 4: close to that nine win number. And I think that
6:00
Speaker 4: would be improved and would shut a lot of people up.
6:02
Speaker 2: That's the voice of Roy Philpott ESPN and serious here
6:06
Speaker 2: on the MAC and bo shoe, Roy, what's the ceiling
6:10
Speaker 2: for this game cock squad? It's a huge year for Beamer,
6:13
Speaker 2: but what's your expectation.
6:15
Speaker 4: Well, they bring back Lenora Sellers and he's got an
6:17
Speaker 4: offensive coordinator that's confident and knows what he's doing in
6:20
Speaker 4: Kendall Brill's and I love that combination, So by default,
6:24
Speaker 4: I think Brile's Sellers the acquisitions that Shane Beemer made
6:29
Speaker 4: on the offensive line, particularly a tackle, gives them much
6:33
Speaker 4: more of an identity and much more confidence coming in
6:35
Speaker 4: the year. So honestly, I think it's similar to Clemson.
6:38
Speaker 4: Now the schedule, You're gonna have to deal with some
6:40
Speaker 4: different things, you know, playing in the SEC. But can
6:44
Speaker 4: you get to eight or nine wins and be in
6:46
Speaker 4: that mix by the time you get to November? And
6:48
Speaker 4: that may sound outrageous for a team that just went
6:51
Speaker 4: four to eight, but I think when you have Lenora Sellers,
6:54
Speaker 4: we've seen him in glimpses two years ago look like
6:58
Speaker 4: a Heisman Trophy not only can and tender, but favorite
7:01
Speaker 4: we saw him look like a first round draft pick
7:03
Speaker 4: at that position. The change in offensive play caller, I
7:06
Speaker 4: think is massive for him and for South Carolina. So
7:10
Speaker 4: you know, to me, I think if Shane can get
7:12
Speaker 4: to eight wins, that also quiets some people in Columbia.
7:15
Speaker 4: That would be my expectation this year, especially if Sellers
7:18
Speaker 4: can stay healthy. But I think his skill set with
7:22
Speaker 4: Kendall Briles building that offense around what he does, you're
7:26
Speaker 4: going to see him, I think, cut loose, and I
7:28
Speaker 4: think he's gonna remind us a lot more of twenty
7:30
Speaker 4: twenty four than what we saw last year when just
7:33
Speaker 4: the offense never got going and couldn't get get you know,
7:36
Speaker 4: get out of its own way. So I think similar
7:38
Speaker 4: to Clemson, I think those are two teams that could
7:41
Speaker 4: be sitting there right around eight and three when they
7:43
Speaker 4: play each other in that season finale in Death Valley
7:46
Speaker 4: the end of November would shock me at all.
7:47
Speaker 2: You called that game two years ago, right, Yeah, yeah,
7:50
Speaker 2: I need you on this year's call. By the way,
7:52
Speaker 2: you're gonna make some calls here.
7:55
Speaker 5: Yeah.
7:56
Speaker 4: Well, look, and look, I'll say one thing about that game.
7:59
Speaker 4: For all the game I've ever called on ESPN and
8:01
Speaker 4: college football watching sellers that day, I don't know that
8:04
Speaker 4: I've ever seen a performance like that, be seeing a
8:07
Speaker 4: game that was arguably the biggest game in the history
8:09
Speaker 4: of that rivalry given the stakes and you know, both
8:12
Speaker 4: teams contending for playoff first at that point in time.
8:15
Speaker 4: So yeah, that left an impression with me, gentlemen that
8:18
Speaker 4: still lingers to this day. I know what he can do,
8:21
Speaker 4: and if he even gets close to that this year
8:23
Speaker 4: in twelve games, they're going to be a very tough team.
8:26
Speaker 1: To be absolutely, man, I'm looking forward to seeing them.
8:28
Speaker 1: I'm also looking forward to Royce and NC State this year.
8:31
Speaker 1: Now they're getting a bit of hype there getting there's
8:35
Speaker 1: some people that are looking at their schedule noticing CJ.
8:39
Speaker 1: Bailey and how good he is and wondering could they
8:42
Speaker 1: be a dark horse in the ACC. You also have
8:44
Speaker 1: NC State fans that when we start hyping up and
8:48
Speaker 1: reading all this hype for their team, they get paranoid, right,
8:51
Speaker 1: because that's when things go badly. It seems like for them,
8:54
Speaker 1: what do you think about them? Could they be a
8:56
Speaker 1: bit of an ACC dark horse?
8:58
Speaker 4: I love me some Dave, right, I mean, he's been
9:01
Speaker 4: there forever. He woke up this morning grumpy going to
9:04
Speaker 4: preseason camp and just you just have to embrace everything
9:08
Speaker 4: that Dave dorn is about. I'm always rooting for him.
9:10
Speaker 4: But I love Bailey obviously, with the skill set and
9:13
Speaker 4: the size and now the experience. I don't know that
9:15
Speaker 4: I love the schedule. The schedule is like sneaky kind
9:19
Speaker 4: of tough, you know, you're not playing in brazila open
9:21
Speaker 4: the season. You still get Virginia up there in Charlottesville.
9:24
Speaker 4: That's a team that was a play away from being
9:26
Speaker 4: a playoff team last year. There are no slouts. You're
9:29
Speaker 4: at Vanderbilt week three. What are the Commodorees now that
9:31
Speaker 4: Diego Pavey has gone. I still think that they're tough.
9:33
Speaker 4: It's on the road in Nashville and then Louisville at home.
9:36
Speaker 4: So those three in the first month of the year
9:40
Speaker 4: is just going to paint the picture for what this
9:42
Speaker 4: team is going to be all about. You lose, Hollywood smuthers,
9:45
Speaker 4: I hate that, but I know that this team is
9:48
Speaker 4: going to compete, and you know that they're going to
9:50
Speaker 4: play with a chip on their shoulder. And when you
9:52
Speaker 4: have a quarterback like CJ. Bailey that came back to Riley,
9:56
Speaker 4: I you know, look, I think you have a chance.
9:58
Speaker 4: Are they contenders? Let me know after what happens in
10:01
Speaker 4: those three games. Let me know what happens after week zero.
10:04
Speaker 4: Doesn't that game tell us everything about what the realistic
10:07
Speaker 4: expectations should be. I mean, I would give in c
10:10
Speaker 4: State the advantage of quarterback in that game, but what
10:13
Speaker 4: does that mean I'm not really sure. I do love Dave.
10:16
Speaker 4: I do love that program. They're always a team that
10:19
Speaker 4: you know, I kind of root for behind the scenes.
10:22
Speaker 4: But that schedule in the first three weeks, those are
10:24
Speaker 4: three games that I look at right now. When you
10:26
Speaker 4: say they're all kind of toss up affairs, that's what
10:28
Speaker 4: it looks like to me. So what happens against Louisville
10:31
Speaker 4: Vanderbilt in Virginia road is going to tell us everything
10:35
Speaker 4: early for State.
10:35
Speaker 2: It's interesting that NC State's the more hyped up team
10:38
Speaker 2: roy but yet Virginia as of now still is five
10:42
Speaker 2: and a half point favorites in that game at home.
10:44
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean I would lean their way. Just there's
10:48
Speaker 4: there's something about what's happened in the last year and
10:51
Speaker 4: a half with Tony Elliott's team. I know, Chandler Morris
10:54
Speaker 4: has gone, They've got some key guys to replace, but
10:57
Speaker 4: last year they became a team until the ACC Championship itself.
11:01
Speaker 4: Last year they became a team that was the best
11:02
Speaker 4: version of themselves, and there was something cooking, you know. Unfortunately,
11:06
Speaker 4: after that terrible tragedy three years ago, it took Tony
11:09
Speaker 4: Ellen and it took that program in that athletic department,
11:12
Speaker 4: you know, a couple of years to turn it around.
11:14
Speaker 4: But since then, you know, they bring an Eli Holstein
11:16
Speaker 4: at quarterback this year. They got Bo Prabula in a
11:19
Speaker 4: quarterback this year. I think that they're going to be
11:22
Speaker 4: very good on the offensive line, which is something nobody
11:25
Speaker 4: is talking about right now. I'll put some stock in
11:28
Speaker 4: what they have in the trenches there in Charlottesville. To me,
11:31
Speaker 4: playing a home that's the reason why they're that slight favorite.
11:33
Speaker 4: That should be a great game. It's going to tell
11:35
Speaker 4: us a lot about the ACC.
11:36
Speaker 2: Really well, Roy, we spent so much of the summer
11:38
Speaker 2: talking about Miami and the ACC and nationally rightfully so,
11:42
Speaker 2: but how good do you think that SMU team could be?
11:45
Speaker 3: Also with Kevin.
11:46
Speaker 4: Jennings, huge fan of r att lashly now he's had
11:50
Speaker 4: to replace both coordinators, which is something I'm curious to
11:54
Speaker 4: see what happens now he's basically running the offense. Casey
11:56
Speaker 4: Woods goes over to Missouri State now is the head
11:58
Speaker 4: coach there for his first head coaching opportunity. But Kevin Jennings,
12:03
Speaker 4: guys makes throws that no other quarterback in college football
12:06
Speaker 4: can make. Now, the good news is if you're an
12:08
Speaker 4: SMU fan, He's going to make plays that keep you
12:10
Speaker 4: in the game and you're like, Wow, how did that happen.
12:13
Speaker 4: He's also been prone with that gunslinger mentality sometimes to
12:16
Speaker 4: turn it over, so that's got to be something I
12:19
Speaker 4: think that he keeps in check. And he's got to
12:20
Speaker 4: stay healthy. Like we've seen him at times, he'll still
12:23
Speaker 4: make the throws, but he can't scramble as well because
12:25
Speaker 4: of lower body jury. So they got to find a
12:27
Speaker 4: way to make sure that he stays healthy. If you
12:29
Speaker 4: tell me right now, he's healthy for twelve games. I've
12:32
Speaker 4: got SMU as the number two team in the ACC
12:35
Speaker 4: and play in Miami for the AEC Championship there in Charlotte.
12:38
Speaker 4: So I very high on the Mustangs. They're well resourced,
12:41
Speaker 4: they're very well coached. I think r At Lashley is
12:44
Speaker 4: happy there in Highland Park at Dallas. Family's kind of
12:46
Speaker 4: growing up and playing high school football. But I'm still
12:49
Speaker 4: a little surprised that somebody has had come in there
12:51
Speaker 4: and tried to extract him and get him maybe to
12:54
Speaker 4: a bigger spot. I would think that happens at some
12:56
Speaker 4: point before the end of this decade. But yeah, very
12:58
Speaker 4: high very high on SMU right now?
13:00
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, Last thing I want to ask you,
13:02
Speaker 1: should Tar Heel fans like And I hate this because
13:06
Speaker 1: I want all the local fan bases to be fired
13:08
Speaker 1: up and be positive, But like, should Tar Heel fans
13:11
Speaker 1: roy just want to take another horrible season? And therefore
13:15
Speaker 1: it leads to them being done with Bill Belichick?
13:17
Speaker 5: Like?
13:18
Speaker 1: Is that what they should? They be that disillusion with
13:21
Speaker 1: Hoodie that they want to just literally have him fail
13:23
Speaker 1: this year?
13:25
Speaker 5: Yes?
13:26
Speaker 4: And I mean I can't believe I'm saying that, but
13:28
Speaker 4: if I'm a Carolina fan, that's exactly how I feel.
13:31
Speaker 4: How many more off the field distractions are we going
13:34
Speaker 4: to be talking about? What about the play on the field?
13:37
Speaker 4: They did get better than the last season, guys, I
13:39
Speaker 4: think that's something that gets lost in the shuffle. But
13:42
Speaker 4: it just feels like everything they're trying to do, the
13:44
Speaker 4: wheels are turning, they're stuck in the mud, and they
13:46
Speaker 4: can't get out of their own way. It's on the
13:48
Speaker 4: field and all. But yet, answer your question, I think
13:51
Speaker 4: that's a great way to frame it. I mean, what
13:53
Speaker 4: could a coach like RTT Lashley do with Chapel Hill?
13:56
Speaker 4: What could some of these other young offensive minds do
13:58
Speaker 4: coming in to just ignore a spark in that fan
14:01
Speaker 4: base in the program. Compared to what we've seen so far,
14:03
Speaker 4: there's amount of evidence that suggests exactly what you said
14:06
Speaker 4: is what is needed. Can they prove that statement or
14:10
Speaker 4: that sentiment wrong. Can they go across upon and compete
14:13
Speaker 4: against TCU. That's how I'm looking at that game.
14:15
Speaker 5: Round.
14:15
Speaker 4: Just don't go over there and get embarrassed. Don't go
14:17
Speaker 4: over there and have the same thing that happened at
14:19
Speaker 4: Keenan Stadium last year to over the year happen again.
14:22
Speaker 4: Have a chance to win in the fourth quarter and
14:23
Speaker 4: show some kind of progress, and then maybe we're seeing
14:26
Speaker 4: a different tune. But the schedule TCU to start, I
14:29
Speaker 4: think that's a very difficult challenge at Clemson, Notre Dame
14:33
Speaker 4: comes to Chapel Hill, at pitt at Duke. You go
14:36
Speaker 4: on down the line, how many guaranteed wins are there?
14:39
Speaker 3: I see two? I see two.
14:40
Speaker 4: So you have to beat some teams you're not supposed
14:42
Speaker 4: to be to make yourself feel good about football again.
14:46
Speaker 4: It just guys, it looks bad and to me, it
14:50
Speaker 4: shows no signs of any kind of significant improvement. You're
14:54
Speaker 4: thinking about next year, What good young coach can we
14:56
Speaker 4: get that brings in his offensive system and quarterback crews
15:00
Speaker 4: in a way we go because right now it just
15:02
Speaker 4: seems like it's stuck in the mud in Chapel.
15:04
Speaker 1: I know, if they're willing to invest the money they
15:06
Speaker 1: did in him and in Nio for him for a
15:09
Speaker 1: coach with actual college success, you know, I'd love to
15:13
Speaker 1: see it. I'd love to see it, all right, Roy? Well, hey,
15:15
Speaker 1: great stuff? As you enjoying this, man, you enjoyed that game?
15:20
Speaker 3: Cock stuff. You've got other teams you can ask about
15:22
Speaker 3: your dude, blue Noot. You could go down all your teams.
15:24
Speaker 3: I got a lot of teams I can ask about.
15:26
Speaker 3: We'll be watching you and Brock Osweiler, a Jury Burris
15:29
Speaker 3: all season.
15:30
Speaker 4: Right, Thank you, Roy, Appreciate you guys anytime.
15:32
Speaker 2: Man, Thank you Be good Roy. Uh in the words
15:35
Speaker 2: he's good man, He's uh. He's really starting to move
15:37
Speaker 2: up to the ESP in the list a little bit
15:39
Speaker 2: because they have twenty five announcing crews right now, he's
15:42
Speaker 2: seventh on that list his crew, and he's he's been
15:44
Speaker 2: moving up more and more by the year.
15:46
Speaker 1: You know what I man, You know what I say
15:47
Speaker 1: don't try to play Roy because.
15:49
Speaker 3: Roy knows ball.
15:51
Speaker 1: That's what I would say. He's great with college football, man.
15:54
Speaker 1: I hear him, really, I hear him sometimes do talk
15:56
Speaker 1: shows to him and our guy Dory Noka. I've heard
15:58
Speaker 1: them do stuff together on the on the satellite radio side.
16:01
Speaker 1: They just he knows ball, he knows southern college football,
16:04
Speaker 1: he knows college football in the Carolinas.
16:06
Speaker 3: So he's a blast.
16:08
Speaker 1: And they go p Man and I will talk to
16:10
Speaker 1: p Man tomorrow, will recap FC's big match tonight against
16:13
Speaker 1: Pachuca from Legua m E. He says they try to
16:16
Speaker 1: advance to the league's Cup quarterfinals. Was I gonna say, oh,
16:22
Speaker 1: tar Heel fans, I gotta be honest, like it seems
16:25
Speaker 1: like Tarhill fans agree. I agree that. Literally, we don't
16:29
Speaker 1: watch that. We are rooting against our team, so we
16:32
Speaker 1: get Bell chick the hell out of here.
16:33
Speaker 2: I don't see him. This did Jeets at the end
16:35
Speaker 2: of basketball season, no fit, you got something to say
16:40
Speaker 2: to the bone man or no, we both.
16:41
Speaker 6: Blew nineteen point leads and then some way tournament.
16:44
Speaker 3: So yeah, further down differently a little bit, where was
16:52
Speaker 3: yours first round?
16:55
Speaker 1: Taro swaf says, can we leave Bill and Jordan in Ireland?
16:59
Speaker 3: Please? Yeah? I hate I hate this because I don't
17:03
Speaker 3: like doing this.
17:03
Speaker 2: We're going to bring them a Barty in the stuffed
17:05
Speaker 2: under the plane.
17:08
Speaker 1: I think they could bring they could bring you know,
17:10
Speaker 1: any Leprechaun back from Ireland. I think he would be
17:13
Speaker 1: a better GM for the program than Michael Lombardi. Seriously,
17:19
Speaker 1: when we know if that's not funny or not, but
17:21
Speaker 1: I think it might be a serious statement. Actually, when
17:23
Speaker 1: we come back, mack Ers, well, first of all, I
17:25
Speaker 1: want to say before I send it to break there,
17:27
Speaker 1: uh panther boas at Chris Berman Walstem.
17:30
Speaker 2: Cheekers I've started as someone grabbed them cheekers and put
17:34
Speaker 2: them somewhere else.
17:35
Speaker 1: I'm so glad that I put cheekers and everybody's vernacular
17:37
Speaker 1: here in Charlotte.
17:38
Speaker 2: Get some.
17:39
Speaker 1: I can't stop thinking about you with cheekers. How many
17:43
Speaker 1: like eight year old boys are out there listening to
17:45
Speaker 1: the radio show with their parents.
17:46
Speaker 2: Yelled out, Jacob. Some kids getting in trouble today for
17:48
Speaker 2: yell and grab them checkers. When we come back, mack dates,
17:51
Speaker 2: its obvious we will see a new Brice this year.
17:54
Speaker 2: Are we with them? Sports Radio ninety two seven WFNZ.
18:31
Speaker 7: Yeah, just being here for the last year and a half,
18:34
Speaker 7: I'd say he's just seems more comfortable. Even from when
18:37
Speaker 7: I first got here to now, he seems more confident
18:40
Speaker 7: in himself and just the way he carries himself. It's
18:42
Speaker 7: definitely he's got more of a presence and you can
18:46
Speaker 7: see that reflecting on the field and just even in
18:48
Speaker 7: the locker room and dropped the building, like you just
18:50
Speaker 7: see he's more you know, Yeah, it's confident. I say,
18:54
Speaker 7: I can tell from when I first got.
18:56
Speaker 5: Here to now.
18:58
Speaker 1: That is Mitchell Evan's tight end for your Carolina Panthers
19:02
Speaker 1: talking about Bryce Young, and it just feels different this
19:07
Speaker 1: training camp. And I understand bone, not everybody's going to
19:11
Speaker 1: agree about this. We're talking football, we're talking Bryce Young.
19:15
Speaker 1: Obviously there is going to be a back and forth here,
19:20
Speaker 1: but I just am curious if other Panther fans are
19:23
Speaker 1: feeling the same way I have.
19:24
Speaker 3: Now.
19:25
Speaker 1: I'll say this, I've been kind of more measured and
19:28
Speaker 1: reserved with Bryce this offseason. I do believe he will
19:31
Speaker 1: make more strides, but I have not necessarily called out
19:36
Speaker 1: lofty destinations. You and Fiddie were bringing up Pro Bowls.
19:40
Speaker 1: Months ago, you guys were saying he is going to
19:43
Speaker 1: be that dude and make that huge jump, So I
19:46
Speaker 1: would guess what I'm saying right now, Bone You'll be like,
19:48
Speaker 1: hey man, thanks for joining the party. But like when
19:51
Speaker 1: I thanks for being a Panther fan again, when I
19:56
Speaker 1: hear and see we've been out three practices, but there's
20:01
Speaker 1: so much more that we're not seeing, and we're just
20:03
Speaker 1: hearing about or seeing highlights of when I see and
20:07
Speaker 1: hear about the way he's throwing the football in training
20:10
Speaker 1: camp and Mike K talked to us last hour about
20:12
Speaker 1: it like it's the best camp of his career. And
20:16
Speaker 1: Mike K just talked about just how comfortable he is
20:19
Speaker 1: and how he appears like he just feels like I
20:22
Speaker 1: got this. And then you hear Mitchell Evans and many
20:25
Speaker 1: others talk about the confidence. We both thought the same
20:28
Speaker 1: thing when we talk to him, right. I don't know
20:29
Speaker 1: what that's worth, but it just felt like, even during
20:32
Speaker 1: an interview, like he feels much more comfortable in his
20:36
Speaker 1: own Panthers starting QB skin, he knows the offense, it's
20:39
Speaker 1: a third year of an offense. He now has a
20:41
Speaker 1: play caller, that is not going to be trying to
20:44
Speaker 1: do two things right head coach and play call at
20:47
Speaker 1: the same time. And then you start hearing about some
20:50
Speaker 1: of the stuff that some of the Texters are calling
20:52
Speaker 1: edgy Bryce right, the cussing out of his teammates when
20:56
Speaker 1: it wasn't good enough during the OTAs, and then yesterday
21:00
Speaker 1: he stands up for Jonathan Brooks. This is his running
21:03
Speaker 1: back bone, that's an X factor on the team. He's
21:05
Speaker 1: coming off to torn Acls and he gets in, he
21:08
Speaker 1: gets in Mike Jack's face, and he doesn't like the
21:10
Speaker 1: shots that were taking at Jonathan Brooks. And I just
21:14
Speaker 1: feel like bone Bryce is a different guy. He's making
21:19
Speaker 1: a jump man. We could debate how big that jump's
21:21
Speaker 1: gonna be, but like, do you, I assume you do
21:25
Speaker 1: believe in the this is a different Bryce.
21:29
Speaker 3: It just feels that way.
21:30
Speaker 2: I think it's a different guy in game and mentality.
21:33
Speaker 2: I also wonder max so much was made when he
21:36
Speaker 2: entered the league about his ability to process and the
21:39
Speaker 2: mental side of the game, the cerebral nets at the
21:43
Speaker 2: line of scrimmage.
21:44
Speaker 3: I do wonder if almost that.
21:46
Speaker 2: Was a detriment early on, that he was overthinking that
21:49
Speaker 2: he was overprocessing that he wasn't just reacting because at Bama, yeah,
21:53
Speaker 2: he could process, but it was all those reactionary plays.
21:56
Speaker 2: It was the Mahomes like escapability, making plays when something
22:00
Speaker 2: wasn't there. I wonder if early on in his career
22:03
Speaker 2: he was almost thinking too much and he wasn't reacting
22:06
Speaker 2: just as an athlete and a quarterback could. Now I'm
22:09
Speaker 2: thinking he now knows it so well he can go
22:12
Speaker 2: play the game and not have to process. Definitely, Well, you,
22:15
Speaker 2: processing is good. I wonder early on though, if it
22:18
Speaker 2: was hindering him a little bit.
22:18
Speaker 1: I'd also think, like, like processing is one of his
22:21
Speaker 1: superpowers that along with the escapability, right, and the improv
22:25
Speaker 1: and also the anticipation. I mean he throws with with
22:29
Speaker 1: what JT. O. Sullivan's calls big a anticipation, right, Like
22:34
Speaker 1: he just that's those are his superpowers. Those are what
22:37
Speaker 1: are gonna make him in this league be a really
22:41
Speaker 1: good quarterback. And I think he's headed on his way
22:43
Speaker 1: to that. But just think about it, if you're not comfortable, right,
22:48
Speaker 1: and obviously how could any quarterback be comfortable in his
22:50
Speaker 1: rookie year? All that mental stuff is gonna be harder, right,
22:55
Speaker 1: You're gonna have a harder time processing when you're just
22:57
Speaker 1: not comfortable, you know. And I just think he's comfortable now.
23:01
Speaker 1: I think now he feels like I got this. The
23:04
Speaker 1: game has slowed down for me. It feels more like
23:06
Speaker 1: it did for me in college all of a sudden,
23:09
Speaker 1: going through my progressions feels easier. And I just I
23:12
Speaker 1: think they're putting more around him. Jonathan Brooks can take
23:15
Speaker 1: the weaponry to another damn level. I think the defense
23:18
Speaker 1: is going to help him because I don't think he's
23:21
Speaker 1: going to have to pull rabbits out of a hat
23:24
Speaker 1: in order for us to get a win this year.
23:25
Speaker 1: I think the defense is going to play so well
23:28
Speaker 1: that we'll go into the fourth quarter up ten points.
23:31
Speaker 2: Seems illegal after last year, but you know, he doesn't
23:34
Speaker 2: have to pull a snake out of his helmet. Shout
23:37
Speaker 2: out an actual story. Shout out to Arkansas high school football.
23:40
Speaker 2: Who's that poor kid by the way, that a snake
23:42
Speaker 2: in his helm?
23:43
Speaker 3: Field?
23:43
Speaker 2: For that kick copper in his helmet? Oh my, I'll
23:46
Speaker 2: get you moving in the pocket. So I just I
23:48
Speaker 2: think we're getting a new price this year. And I
23:51
Speaker 2: just kind of wonder Panther fans do you believe in
23:54
Speaker 2: this stuff? Is it based off of his improvements last year?
23:58
Speaker 2: Is it based off of the training camps? Off this
24:01
Speaker 2: dude said, well, let me not start with a negative
24:03
Speaker 2: one because I get a skip over. Bebo texted in
24:08
Speaker 2: and said, Bone told me I need help. That's the
24:10
Speaker 2: last text time. So he said that, we're now thinking
24:12
Speaker 2: that Bryce is Peyton Manning. He called Haines King, Steve
24:15
Speaker 2: Young five textago. Let me read some of these texts.
24:19
Speaker 2: Big kat Dan says, come on, Matt, Bryce is gonna
24:22
Speaker 2: ball out calling it now, MVP, let's go. I would
24:25
Speaker 2: fall short of that. I would fall short of that,
24:28
Speaker 2: but I just feel like he's a different guy. The swagger,
24:31
Speaker 2: the confidence, the comfortability, and he's just dropping dimes in camp.
24:36
Speaker 5: Uh.
24:37
Speaker 1: This texture says, I am a one percent Bryce believer.
24:42
Speaker 1: I'm a Bama fan. I saw him do it in college,
24:45
Speaker 1: and you can see each year you can see more
24:48
Speaker 1: and more of that appearing. Now I will get to
24:51
Speaker 1: uh truck or t says Bryce up Son, Bryce up,
24:54
Speaker 1: I will get to a negative text.
24:56
Speaker 2: It will not be bebops the one that says Bryce
24:58
Speaker 2: it's short tempered. Now it's a problem. He's too angry.
25:03
Speaker 2: Now I think it was a short joke.
25:05
Speaker 8: Oh, okay, okay, s oh I was too slow for
25:09
Speaker 8: that one seven oh four number says you guys are
25:13
Speaker 8: falling for training camp highlights.
25:16
Speaker 3: Again.
25:17
Speaker 1: Bryce Young had big throws in training camp in the past,
25:21
Speaker 1: and y'all thought it turned him into Joe Willie. Naturally,
25:24
Speaker 1: he almost beat the Rams in the playoffs, so that, Yeah,
25:26
Speaker 1: let's look at carry it's carrying over there, fella.
25:29
Speaker 2: Dare I tell you about the last ten games of
25:31
Speaker 2: twenty twenty four, in the last eight games of twenty
25:33
Speaker 2: twenty five, So he has it in him.
25:35
Speaker 3: He just needs to do it on the regular mac.
25:37
Speaker 3: I have a hanger for some deep for some deep
25:39
Speaker 3: passing numbers.
25:40
Speaker 1: Number one deep passing grade last year. I'm glad you
25:42
Speaker 1: asked bony Fitty, what do you think? Do you now
25:46
Speaker 1: you were? You were calling Bryce a pro bowler in
25:48
Speaker 1: twenty twenty six, long before training camp?
25:51
Speaker 3: Do you does training camp make you even more confident?
25:54
Speaker 5: Like?
25:55
Speaker 3: Where do you fall on on this new Bryce narrative?
25:58
Speaker 5: Yeah?
25:58
Speaker 6: In response to that, with that extra said you were
26:00
Speaker 6: falling for training camp hype. Why is literally every single
26:05
Speaker 6: person that covers the Panthers beat either come on the
26:08
Speaker 6: station or written articles about Bryce Young excelling and having
26:12
Speaker 6: the best training camp so far. If his young NFL career,
26:15
Speaker 6: it's not just hype, it's what's happening out there on
26:19
Speaker 6: the football field.
26:20
Speaker 5: Mack.
26:20
Speaker 6: You know what the Panthers are getting this year in
26:21
Speaker 6: Bryce Young. They're getting the guy they traded for. They're
26:25
Speaker 6: getting the version of the quarterback once Scott Fitterer mortgage
26:28
Speaker 6: the future to go up and get him. It may
26:31
Speaker 6: have taken four years, and it may have taken a
26:34
Speaker 6: little bit of a rollercoaster to get there, him getting bitched,
26:36
Speaker 6: having a bounce back, But the guy that they thought
26:39
Speaker 6: they were getting four years ago, that's who that guy
26:41
Speaker 6: is now. And that's the guy that is poised to
26:44
Speaker 6: win the division for a second straight year. That's the
26:47
Speaker 6: guy that's poised to have the biggest statistical career of
26:50
Speaker 6: his career, and the guy that I think is ready
26:52
Speaker 6: to lead this team on to the playoffs and advance
26:57
Speaker 6: into the playoffs. He almost didn't last year. And I
27:02
Speaker 6: don't want to, you know, talk about losing, but how
27:05
Speaker 6: much confidence did he come away with that loss?
27:08
Speaker 3: Because he could look himself for the.
27:12
Speaker 5: I went I went toe to toe.
27:14
Speaker 6: He could tell himself, I made every f and play
27:16
Speaker 6: I had to make to give my chance, my team
27:18
Speaker 6: a chance to get the MVP.
27:20
Speaker 3: He had a game wasn't like he was in a
27:21
Speaker 3: game winning drive.
27:22
Speaker 1: If the defense finishes, he yet another game winning drive,
27:24
Speaker 1: which he has the most of since he came into
27:26
Speaker 1: the league, by the way.
27:27
Speaker 6: So I just like, I feel like we're finally getting
27:30
Speaker 6: the Brice that you expected to get when you drafted
27:33
Speaker 6: him first. Overall, that's that's the guy I think we're
27:36
Speaker 6: getting this year, and I am excited. I thought all
27:39
Speaker 6: along Mac there was a disconnect between him and Dave
27:42
Speaker 6: Canalis in terms of the play calling. I think him
27:44
Speaker 6: and Brad Isaac are going to have a better marriage,
27:47
Speaker 6: and I think he is going to be poised to
27:48
Speaker 6: put up the types of numbers this fan base has
27:51
Speaker 6: been begging for him to put up on a weekend
27:53
Speaker 6: week out basis, I love it.
27:55
Speaker 3: I love it. Man brings a tear in my eye.
27:57
Speaker 1: Panther, Fitty Baby, I would never doubt pay after that speech.
28:01
Speaker 1: I will never bring up Bone twenty fifteen and Fitty's
28:04
Speaker 1: romo jersey.
28:05
Speaker 3: Never paint askin.
28:09
Speaker 2: While Fitty was bringing that down, man. I got a
28:11
Speaker 2: text from a source that told me what Bryce said
28:14
Speaker 2: back to Mike Jack yesterday, ready for this?
28:16
Speaker 3: What's that? He said?
28:17
Speaker 2: Hey too, do how's it feel to get your cheekers kicked?
28:25
Speaker 2: Jack said, what did.
28:25
Speaker 3: You say to me?
28:26
Speaker 7: I heard?
28:26
Speaker 3: He said, yeah, we whooped your cheekers.
28:29
Speaker 1: I heard he told him he is super upset about
28:32
Speaker 1: the way you all just hit Jonathan broke how many
28:34
Speaker 1: super upset?
28:34
Speaker 2: How many times back did he say super upset during
28:37
Speaker 2: that twenty minute conversation.
28:38
Speaker 3: Now about him saying super excited two words?
28:41
Speaker 6: And does interview with Mike Tomlin last week his very
28:43
Speaker 6: first answer, he told Mike Tomin.
28:45
Speaker 3: I'm super excited. I'm so proud of our guy.
28:48
Speaker 2: He can't quit it, man, That's it, that's his thing.
28:51
Speaker 2: Do you think Mike tom would ever use the word
28:53
Speaker 2: cheekers when he coached.
28:55
Speaker 3: I'm a feeling it literally? He went, maybe, uh with.
28:58
Speaker 2: A different choice, that more grown up choice sew in
29:01
Speaker 2: my head right now. You can't stop, you can't. It
29:03
Speaker 2: was also the fact you say, grabbed the cheeker.
29:05
Speaker 1: You can't clapp talk about the touchbush baby, I was
29:07
Speaker 1: talking about the touchbush. I don't one day dam Darty
29:09
Speaker 1: just a little short yardage football.
29:11
Speaker 2: Sounds like a minor league baseball team, like the Omaha Cheekers.
29:15
Speaker 1: Allis Cheekers. They take on the Making Whoopie in a
29:18
Speaker 1: in a championship game. Yeah, Georgia, Macon, Georgia. Are they
29:24
Speaker 1: still called that? They were at one point called the
29:26
Speaker 1: Making Whoopie? Isn't that amazing? That's tremendous.
29:33
Speaker 3: Over there?
29:34
Speaker 1: If he needs a cold shower over there right now?
29:36
Speaker 1: Oh my goodness. Uh, we have a texture here that says,
29:40
Speaker 1: oh so if it's not Bryce, you're dissing some some
29:43
Speaker 1: panther fan as to Dissa Varrow mac uh a hockey team.
29:47
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's okay, hockey, not baseball. Hockey not baseball.
29:51
Speaker 1: Seven oh four number Mac. It's all great that Bryce
29:54
Speaker 1: is better, But until that defensive coordinator grows some stones,
29:57
Speaker 1: we're gonna continue to go soft late on the defense
30:00
Speaker 1: and blow leads. I'm not sure, bone like, yeah he was.
30:04
Speaker 1: It was a soft defense against New Orleans on the
30:06
Speaker 1: road late. It was a soft defense bone late on
30:10
Speaker 1: that staff Ord game winning drive. But maybe you don't
30:13
Speaker 1: need to send up blitz every down on the final
30:16
Speaker 1: possession when Jalen Phillips is coming off the edge and
30:19
Speaker 1: Devin Lloyd is dropping back to protect the middle of
30:21
Speaker 1: the field rather than Christian rose Boone. That personnel bone
30:25
Speaker 1: is going to is going to make all the differences in.
30:28
Speaker 2: The earthly guys that I look at and say, oh,
30:29
Speaker 2: that's solid acquisition to the roster.
30:32
Speaker 1: No, he's gonna so if because I get it too,
30:35
Speaker 1: like maybe send the blitz or something to Varrow, you know,
30:38
Speaker 1: try to change things up a little bit. But let's
30:41
Speaker 1: face it, personnel was responsible for that failure too. I
30:44
Speaker 1: know everything gets blamed on a Varo defensive. Mean, I
30:46
Speaker 1: don't even know how a Bryce conversation got into a
30:48
Speaker 1: rip of Varro. Finally y'all found a way to turn
30:52
Speaker 1: into to rip the two guys that Panther fans can't
30:55
Speaker 1: stop ripping for whatever reason, Bone together Willy Burners.
31:00
Speaker 3: But like the whole point is, personnel was a problem.
31:04
Speaker 1: Yeah, we couldn't get a pass rush with four don't
31:07
Speaker 1: you think Jalen Phillips will will help that? And yeah
31:10
Speaker 1: we couldn't cover the middle of the field. What's Devin
31:12
Speaker 1: Lloyd here to do? You know exactly?
31:15
Speaker 2: He can only coach up Amaricaly coach up what he
31:18
Speaker 2: has to work with big time, big time, every not
31:20
Speaker 2: every not every coach can make miracles. I mean, we'll
31:23
Speaker 2: go macat to work with every day around here. That's
31:25
Speaker 2: all you're gonna say. I thought trying you to say,
31:27
Speaker 2: look what you have to work with it because we
31:29
Speaker 2: all can make that argument.
31:31
Speaker 3: I like it.
31:32
Speaker 1: I appreciate that one. After Fitty called me panther ass yesterday.
31:35
Speaker 1: I needed that. All right, let's go to the fit
31:38
Speaker 1: Dog with an updates. Do the Hornets finally have a
31:43
Speaker 1: Christmas Day game? Fitty's got the answer. No, JJ doesn't
31:47
Speaker 1: own this Charlotte Cheekers Charlotte Cheekers hockey team.
31:51
Speaker 3: That's funny.
32:00
Speaker 6: While the most of the sports world is getting excited
32:03
Speaker 6: for the start of the football season, this week is
32:06
Speaker 6: like Christmas for Walker Gunderson Males. We're getting the twenty
32:10
Speaker 6: twenty six twenty twenty seven NBA schedule first, Mac. This
32:14
Speaker 6: update is brought to you by the hn S roof
32:16
Speaker 6: again Gutter Company.
32:17
Speaker 3: If something doesn't look right with your.
32:19
Speaker 6: Roof for your gutters doing forray small problems to become
32:21
Speaker 6: a big one, probably HNS Roofing and Gutter Company today
32:24
Speaker 6: for a free estimate seven zero four three three four
32:27
Speaker 6: nine nine three four seven zero four three three four
32:30
Speaker 6: nine nine three four seven zero four three three four
32:34
Speaker 6: nine to nine three four we have the opening night
32:37
Speaker 6: of NBA games. Six Ers will take on the Knicks
32:40
Speaker 6: as the Knicks will hang their banner. We also got
32:42
Speaker 6: the Christmas Day slate and it features the following matchups,
32:46
Speaker 6: a rematch of the finals from last year, the Spurs
32:49
Speaker 6: and the Knicks. Giannis in the Heat will take on
32:52
Speaker 6: the Celtics, the Thunder will take on the Wolves, and
32:57
Speaker 6: the Denver Nuggets will take on the Golden State Warriors.
33:01
Speaker 6: So we don't get the Hornets on Christmas Day, but
33:05
Speaker 6: a former Hornet, Lamello Ball will make us Christmas Day.
33:09
Speaker 3: That's very view.
33:10
Speaker 1: That is some very fitting hornets ish Bone LaMelo leaves
33:14
Speaker 1: and he immediately gets a Christmas Day game.
33:17
Speaker 2: My son, Christmas. What's better? You know you need on Christmas?
33:21
Speaker 2: You need all the balls. Jingle balls.
33:28
Speaker 1: Oh, if they're smart in Minnesota, they'll do a jingle
33:30
Speaker 1: ball promotion all right for LaMelo Ball playing on Christmas. Yes,
33:34
Speaker 1: but here we are, man, and I get it. Jeff
33:37
Speaker 1: Peterson is thinking longer game. Bone not trying to just
33:41
Speaker 1: race to fifty wins, not trying to just race to
33:43
Speaker 1: a Christmas game. But you can't tell me if we
33:46
Speaker 1: didn't bring LaMelo back. I think we were headed towards
33:50
Speaker 1: the first Christmas game franchise Christmas.
33:52
Speaker 3: We better get that day after Thanksgiving, afternoon game.
33:54
Speaker 5: Bough.
33:54
Speaker 2: That's what we want, Bag when we come back. I
33:58
Speaker 2: bet you're earlier in the show. How Rick Flair's always
34:00
Speaker 2: involved in something that gets people talking.
34:02
Speaker 3: I do believe.
34:04
Speaker 2: I do believe that Scottie Pippin also does that on
34:07
Speaker 2: the basketball side. He's got some more comments that made
34:10
Speaker 2: us say, oh no, Scotty, stop talking. You'll hear those
34:13
Speaker 2: next Sports Radio seven w FND.
34:34
Speaker 5: Did you guys golf a lot together or nothing? Never?
34:37
Speaker 5: You guys never go no, So who was he talking
34:40
Speaker 5: about to go golf with them? Rob? Wow? You guys
34:42
Speaker 5: never golf together? No? So when you guys played together?
34:45
Speaker 5: How often was it for you guys have dinner together?
34:48
Speaker 2: I mean we may have black car pregame meal or
34:52
Speaker 2: something like that, but will would it's always a big,
34:56
Speaker 2: big party of people.
34:57
Speaker 5: How many times did just you and Michael dinner in Chicago?
35:01
Speaker 5: Chicago has a lot of great Scotty, stop it, Scotty,
35:05
Speaker 5: stop it. You and Michael never had dinner together one
35:08
Speaker 5: on one?
35:08
Speaker 1: No, that is a rather a dramatic interviewer, stop it
35:18
Speaker 1: on the stop it on the BPD podcast. Just cannot
35:22
Speaker 1: believe what Scotty Pipptt is telling him about Michael Jordan
35:26
Speaker 1: not ever going out one on one uh to dinner
35:29
Speaker 1: when they play together bulls, not ever golfing together.
35:32
Speaker 3: See.
35:32
Speaker 2: I don't find there are datelines sit downs with criminals
35:36
Speaker 2: that are that dramatic.
35:38
Speaker 3: That's so true, Scotty what see.
35:40
Speaker 1: I don't find it that hard to Befitty thinks Scotty's
35:43
Speaker 1: bs and I don't find it that hard to believe.
35:46
Speaker 1: I think it's kind of clear they weren't each other's
35:49
Speaker 1: cup of tea off the court, like how many Like
35:52
Speaker 1: there are plenty of co workers that don't hang out
35:54
Speaker 1: with other co workers, like plenty of plays.
35:56
Speaker 2: That don't hang out with teammates. Y Bailey doesn't mean
35:59
Speaker 2: you can work well together, Mac.
36:02
Speaker 3: You know what I mean? Just what do you do
36:03
Speaker 3: about he was naming everybody?
36:05
Speaker 1: We're just we went to FanFest last week and we
36:08
Speaker 1: went to an FC game like two weeks ago.
36:11
Speaker 5: That's fair.
36:12
Speaker 1: He brought you to watch before, that's true. I do
36:15
Speaker 1: owe them lunch at Noble, so don't rend him bone now.
36:18
Speaker 2: Scotty Pippen also did say that he looks down that
36:21
Speaker 2: Lebron for ring chasing, which chok My notes here on
36:23
Speaker 2: now that's a little rich there. Scottie Pippen did go
36:26
Speaker 2: to Houston with Barkley and a ken didn't work out,
36:28
Speaker 2: and then he went to Portland where pretty sure on
36:30
Speaker 2: that team he was also ring chasing.
36:32
Speaker 1: Just because your ring chasing failed, does it mean you
36:35
Speaker 1: weren't doing it? Oh my gosh. Anyway, JP says, oh
36:40
Speaker 1: the horror, Scottie, stop it that hit. The reaction to
36:43
Speaker 1: being told that whoever that interview was is amazing, so
36:47
Speaker 1: over the top but amazing.
36:49
Speaker 3: Oh man.
36:50
Speaker 1: All right, So the world of sports tonight needs to
36:53
Speaker 1: be mentioned. H Charlotte FC. Looks like we might see
36:57
Speaker 1: a little bit of Allen st Maximum tonight on the wing.
37:00
Speaker 1: We won't see pet Biel Unfortunately it's ridiculous red card
37:03
Speaker 1: because it's a sensitive referee, so we'll see without Pep.
37:07
Speaker 1: I'm a little worried about this match Bone against Pachuca
37:10
Speaker 1: from Legua Amechi's Charlotte FC can make with the win.
37:14
Speaker 1: I mean, it's not official, but it will all but
37:17
Speaker 1: seal their spot in the in the quarterfinals, So I
37:21
Speaker 1: hope they pull it off tonight. Get on out there
37:23
Speaker 1: to the bank. Also, Braves and Mets again the night Braves,
37:25
Speaker 1: can you beat the Mets?
37:26
Speaker 5: Fitty?
37:27
Speaker 3: Was yet?
37:27
Speaker 1: Fitty sounded so arrogant and obnoxious, Bone, I thought the
37:30
Speaker 1: eighty six Mets were back on the field.
37:31
Speaker 2: First time I've seen Mets Fitty since maybe early May.
37:34
Speaker 2: It was it was not ready to get his ground
37:36
Speaker 2: screw outing on again. It was a rare moment, man,
37:39
Speaker 2: all right, Let's get to some of these very Metsight.
37:41
Speaker 2: Does it get hot when none of it matters for you?
37:43
Speaker 3: Right, Fitty? That's true, that's on brand fit.
37:46
Speaker 6: Best record in baseball since the trade deadline.
37:48
Speaker 2: You know, you're still making a run and you're still
37:51
Speaker 2: eighteen and a half hind the Braves.
37:52
Speaker 6: Still cha's behind the Marlins even more depressing.
37:56
Speaker 1: Oh man, all right, let's read some of our text

Speaker 1: unquote hate, this but never misses the opportunity to chuckle
38:38
Speaker 1: AT u N c Or. FITTY i think they made
38:41
Speaker 1: a bad. HIRE i didn't like it when they did.
38:43
Speaker 1: IT i think it's, ridiculous AND i think they're paying
38:45
Speaker 1: the price for. IT i think they should have Let
38:47
Speaker 1: Bubble cunningham make an actual hire rather than let a
38:49
Speaker 1: damn booster or board member do the.
38:52
Speaker 3: Hiring AND i think they're paying the price for right.
38:54
Speaker 3: Now i'm.
38:55
Speaker 1: Sorry they deserve to be mock, man AND i hope
38:58
Speaker 1: THEY i hope he ends up getting out of. Here
39:00
Speaker 1: can they go make a real freaking. Higher i'm not
39:02
Speaker 1: gonna stop. You, bone on the other end once a
39:05
Speaker 1: lifetime contract For Bill belichick in you At Chapel. Hill
39:09
Speaker 1: let's see here a lot Of bryce toss Suggestions bone.
39:12
Speaker 1: TODAY i don't know if they're suggesting if they know
39:17
Speaker 1: that this is a previous short yardage play, suggestion or
39:19
Speaker 1: if everybody else is coming up with it on their
39:21
Speaker 1: own right. Now but, yes The bryce. Toss we have
39:24
Speaker 1: long been proponents of The bryce. Toss today we gave
39:27
Speaker 1: we've talked about Throwing. Bryce what if we did he,
39:31
Speaker 1: WELL i do twist on. It what if we CrowdSurf
39:34
Speaker 1: bryce over the top of the, pile pass him right
39:38
Speaker 1: across like the fans did that Flag bone at Fan.
39:41
Speaker 3: Fest just pass over the top of the.
39:44
Speaker 1: Pile the problem is they pass him right on down
39:46
Speaker 1: in somebody's defensive tackle to take him and throw, soccer
39:49
Speaker 1: throwing him right back into the.
39:51
Speaker 2: Backfield we also have the idea of just how far
39:54
Speaker 2: Could Derek brown Throw bryce.
39:57
Speaker 3: Shot?
39:57
Speaker 1: Put oh, yeah you know shot put form and, everything
39:59
Speaker 1: just fall him up and take him to the shoulder and.
40:01
Speaker 3: Boom. Uh, now some people boa this is when we
40:05
Speaker 3: really need the games to.
40:06
Speaker 5: Time.
40:06
Speaker 1: Now some people took our suggestion Of bryce burrowing under
40:10
Speaker 1: the field in short. Yardage, uh very, seriously because this texter,
40:15
Speaker 1: says how can the how Can bryce burrow under the?
40:18
Speaker 1: Field we have turf but not a grass. Field, oh
40:25
Speaker 1: this dude, says If bryce burrowed under the, field he
40:28
Speaker 1: would not be ruled down because even if his two
40:32
Speaker 1: knees are on the, ground he has to be touched
40:34
Speaker 1: in order to be rolled. Out so that plays back on.
40:37
Speaker 1: Bow that plays back on all, right let's see what
40:41
Speaker 1: else is going on? Here? Uh, oh we got we
40:45
