• 2:44
  Speaker 6: I'm not sure I'm familiar with his work. 30 is
• 2:47
  Speaker 6: an eye-opening age.
• 2:49
  Speaker 4: Like, this one hurts.

  Speaker 2: A little bit. You don't hurt yet. Wait 10 years.
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: Wait 20 years. I feel like, Mac, I've got to
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: grow up.

  Speaker 6: I like to be on the ring.
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: I'm wearing a quarter zip. I'm wearing my jeans today.
• 3:07

  Speaker 2: I've got.
• 3:09
  Speaker 6: To be a 30-year-old man now. I can't be Peter
• 3:13
  Speaker 6: Pan anymore. I have to leave Neverland. It's time for
• 3:17
  Speaker 6: me to grow up. Also, I jokingly told my mama
• 3:20
  Speaker 6: at midnight to come sing to me happy birthday like
• 3:23
  Speaker 6: my parents did to me as I was growing up.
• 3:26
  Speaker 6: That woman at 12 o'clock was in my room. screaming
• 3:30
  Speaker 6: happy birthday to me.
• 3:31
  Speaker 4: And I thought I died.
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: He just told us he's no longer Peter Pan, but
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: Mama came in at midnight. Apparently you don't have to
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: grow up. Your grandma is singing happy birthday to you.
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: What time did Flounder come in? He's already there.
• 3:44
  Speaker 4: Oh, man.
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: Anyway, they went out to dinner last night. You know this? No,
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 3:48
  Speaker 5: Finney now has to stagger his birthday dinners. Flounder has
• 3:53
  Speaker 5: to take him out on birthday eve because now he's
• 3:56
  Speaker 5: got his girlfriend to take him out tonight.
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: Phinney, I'm not saying that Flounder's been right about you
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: being a bad guy all these years, but last week
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: we chronicled the conversation off the air where you told Flounder, hey,
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: where are you taking me for my birthday dinner? Like,
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: it wasn't like Flounder offering to take you out. You
• 4:14
  Speaker 3: were yelling at him, demanding of where he was going
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: to take you for your birthday, like an old married couple.
• 4:19
  Speaker 6: Well, because Flounder's cheap. And I knew he was going
• 4:22
  Speaker 6: to use the girlfriend as an excuse.
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: And you know why I know that? Oh, Flounder wanted
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: out of this duty. I didn't realize this.
• 4:28
  Speaker 6: My parents told me yesterday, you have a girlfriend and
• 4:30
  Speaker 6: we're not getting you crap.
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: Man, even they're using the girlfriend thing to not have to.
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: Everyone is using the girlfriend excuse. It's a way out
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: for everybody involved right now.
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: Will you take a day off for the radio show
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: soon and maybe go apple picking or something?
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: Oh, my goodness.
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: I'm stressed out myself right now because of my roommate
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: Murphy yesterday. My roommate? He's your dog. He's been pretty
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: good lately, but yesterday was, I don't know if it's
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: the rain and I don't know what was going on yesterday.
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: we were having an argument outside while we were walking.
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: And I was like, he was trying to eat his leash.
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: He gets mad and tries to like, she was trying
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: to shoot his leash. And then we have a neighbor.
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: That's like captain dad jokes. He walks by. Hey, there's
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: Murphy and bone. How you doing there? I'm like, we
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: both stand, we both stand at attention. Like we're not fighting.
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: And then he says, hey, it's the fall. Don't trip now.
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: Good to see you, sir. And as soon as this
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: guy walks away, Murphy starts biting my pant legs. We
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: are now that couple in the neighborhood that hides their
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: problems from the other neighbors. Everyone thinks Murphy and I
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: are wonderful.
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: We're great.
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: I am not in a good relationship right now with
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: this dog. Hey, I got one for you, though, man. Rocket,
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: one of my two dogs. Uh, Caitlin, my daughter, she's 13.
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: She's been taking him into bed, uh, to, to let
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: him sleep with her lately. And on like night, he
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: made it to night four on night four. He left
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: a poop nugget in her blanket. She found it like
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: the next night and lost her mind and yelled at him.
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: So he's done bone. He has lost his, uh, bed privileges.
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: I feel better now. All right, there we go. Wait
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: until that happens. Wait until you get Murphy to the
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: poop nugget stage. Oh, this dude will just leave him
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: on the couch too he'll be he'll be laying on
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: the couch next thing you know what the heck's that
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: there for and it's not overly big it's not the
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: full it's not the full no i think he's just
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: squeezing a little bit like a little pest dispenser again
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: pretty much let me get a little bit of room
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: up there and i'm just gonna leave this here anyway
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: have you ever thought back on a long day when
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: you looked over and thought man i hope i didn't.
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: Do that.
• 6:33
  Speaker 5: Oh, man. It's almost like they're animals and maybe they're
• 6:37
  Speaker 5: not meant to be living in houses, but we ain't
• 6:39
  Speaker 5: going to tell anybody about that.
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 6:41
  Speaker 5: Let's talk about the Panthers news bone because there's a
• 6:43
  Speaker 5: lot of it. It started yesterday morning on this show.
• 6:48
  Speaker 5: We always lament the fact that no breaking news happens
• 6:51
  Speaker 5: when we're on the air and then we get this
• 6:52
  Speaker 5: news and it's like we don't want this sort of news.
• 6:55
  Speaker 5: Jonathan Brooks with that groin injury. He's having core muscle surgery.
• 7:00
  Speaker 5: He's going to be out. Dave Canales gave his timeline, said, hey,
• 7:04
  Speaker 5: this is a six- to eight-week injury.
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: We'll know more. That's the estimate. We'll know more after
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: the surgery. He said something interesting.
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: He said, and obviously he's been put on IR because
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: you've got to miss at least four weeks for IR,
• 7:17
  Speaker 3: so that'll give him flexibility. He already announced that Trey
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: Tyus will be brought up from the practice squad this
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: week to be their third running back. He did also say–
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: We worked out Austin Eckler, but nothing has been done
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: there yet. But he said something interesting about Brooks. He said,
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: if we went surgery or non-surgery on this, it would
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: be about the same amount of time, which is interesting
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: to me that he still is choosing surgery. Yeah, because
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: when I was reading off the stuff yesterday, it said
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: the rehab.
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: Way is six weeks. So I guess that does wind
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: up to what he said. So, yeah, I guess it's
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: the same no matter what you do. You consulted your
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: AI physician yesterday, Bo, on the show?
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: No, that was regular Google. That was regular Dr. Google there,
• 8:00
  Speaker 3: not just AI.
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: You WebMD'd it? Yeah. Okay, okay. I'm surprised I haven't
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: had that injury yet, to be honest with you.
• 8:07
  Speaker 5: Why does someone choose surgery when if you don't do surgery,
• 8:11
  Speaker 5: it's the same amount of time?
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: I don't know. I know there's a reason.
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: Or maybe if you rehab it, because I do... Maybe
• 8:19
  Speaker 3: if you rehab it, there's more of a chance that
• 8:22
  Speaker 3: could come back again if you surgery the thing.
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: There's got to be a reason. I'm just kind of curious. Yeah,
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: I'm sure there's something.
• 8:28
  Speaker 5: As somebody that has not consulted WebMD or Dr. AI, Boney,
• 8:32
  Speaker 5: I'm just kind of curious about that. I'm sure they
• 8:34
  Speaker 5: could both answer that question for us.
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: Or I'm just smart medically. That could also be a thing, too.
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: Let's not overlook my medical prowess here.
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: Dr.
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: Bone, Dr. Bone, the doctor will see you now.
• 8:45
  Speaker 3: All right. Anyway, I don't know if that was cool
• 8:47
  Speaker 3: or not. Actually, it probably wasn't. So anyway, no Brooks
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: for this period of time. And A.J.
• 8:54
  Speaker 5: Dillon takes on an added role. Canales talked about that.
• 8:58
  Speaker 5: But also, Bone, it wasn't just the Jonathan Brooks injury
• 9:01
  Speaker 5: news yesterday. It wasn't the only injury news. The injury
• 9:05
  Speaker 5: report came out and there were quite a few names
• 9:09
  Speaker 5: on this list. Now, you've got to kind of filter
• 9:12
  Speaker 5: through it, Bone. There's a couple that are of particular concern.
• 9:16
  Speaker 5: When you see Jalen Phillips and Devin Lloyd on there
• 9:20
  Speaker 5: as DNPs did not practice, that's going to get your attention.
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: Now, it's a Wednesday, right?
• 9:26
  Speaker 5: DNP on Wednesday?
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: I think Coker DNP'd last Wednesday.
• 9:29
  Speaker 5: So did not practice on Wednesday is far from meaning
• 9:33
  Speaker 5: you're not going to play on Sunday. What do they
• 9:34
  Speaker 5: do Thursday? Do they ramp up? Friday's a big practice, too.
• 9:40
  Speaker 5: But they are on that list, and there's a bunch
• 9:42
  Speaker 5: of others as well. The good news is Pat Jones
• 9:45
  Speaker 5: and Bobby Brown full practice. So that bodes well, Bone,
• 9:48
  Speaker 5: to get both those guys back on the defensive front
• 9:51
  Speaker 5: for the Browns game. Coker limited with an ankle. Probably
• 9:55
  Speaker 5: makes sense, right? Rest him during the week, limit his
• 9:58
  Speaker 5: reps during the week. Um, Darren Waller gets his, this
• 10:02
  Speaker 5: is a feature Wednesday vet day. It's a work Wednesday
• 10:05
  Speaker 5: for everybody except Waller.
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: It's a Waller Wednesday. Yeah, Waller Wednesday is not the
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: same as a work Wednesday. Go to Cold Stone Creamery,
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: go to Waffle House, whatever it takes, Waller.
• 10:13
  Speaker 5: And then you got chairless shoulder injury. You've got Nick
• 10:17
  Speaker 5: Scott rib injury. Um, after seeing what happened to the
• 10:21
  Speaker 5: arm there of chairless really wasn't expecting to see him
• 10:25
  Speaker 5: this week.
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: I thought he was out for, I thought that was
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: like season.
• 10:27
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 10:28
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 10:29
  Speaker 5: So anyway, he's still in the active roster, but, um,
• 10:31
  Speaker 5: Nick Scott, I kind of was thinking he may not
• 10:34
  Speaker 5: play this week.
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: It's a rib injury, but he didn't practice either.
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm going to try to do my best not
• 10:40
  Speaker 3: to Wednesday injury-list panic there. Matt, the fact that my
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: takeaway on the Devin Lloyd thing of that was, oh,
• 10:47
  Speaker 3: my goodness, he had an historic game, and he wasn't feeling.
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: Right for half the game.
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: Seriously.
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: What was this guy going to do if he was
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: healthy for the full game? And that's the thing, too.
• 10:56
  Speaker 5: Like, if you're trying to figure out how worried you are,
• 11:00
  Speaker 5: Devin Lloyd got the injury in the first half.
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah.
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: Looked pretty good in the second half. You know, so.
• 11:06
  Speaker 3: He got injured just dragging Falcons around the field.
• 11:10
  Speaker 5: Apparently, yeah. Apparently so. I would have thought it happened
• 11:14
  Speaker 5: on all those return yards. All those runbacks that he
• 11:16
  Speaker 5: was having on those fools. Someone suggested Devin Lloyd be
• 11:19
  Speaker 5: a new return man for us also. Third running back, potentially.
• 11:24
  Speaker 5: So anyway, we'll see. We'll talk about it later as
• 11:26
  Speaker 5: the show goes on. I do want to point, Devin
• 11:28
  Speaker 5: Lloyd himself said, hey, I'm not too concerned about this.
• 11:31
  Speaker 5: I do want to point out, Bone, that it is
• 11:35
  Speaker 5: Thursday Night Football Thursday.
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: Oh, no, hold on.
• 11:37
  Speaker 5: Before we get to that, before we get to the
• 11:38
  Speaker 5: Falcons and what they will do to America's eyeballs tonight,
• 11:42
  Speaker 5: let me mention the roster maneuvering yesterday. So, yeah, no
• 11:48
  Speaker 5: Austin Eckler yet.
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: No signing. Just a workout yesterday.
• 11:52
  Speaker 5: Trey Tyus, Canales says, will be elevated to the active
• 11:55
  Speaker 5: roster as the third running back. With Brooks going in IR,
• 11:58
  Speaker 5: that opened up a spot on the active roster. That
• 12:00
  Speaker 5: goes to Isaiah Simmons, special teams ace. And you have
• 12:06
  Speaker 5: Naimajung Mehta, who was our international pathway player last year.
• 12:10
  Speaker 5: He has been added back to the practice squad, kind
• 12:14
  Speaker 5: of special teams linebacker guy.
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: So he's been added back. to the practice squad.
• 12:19
  Speaker 5: Now we get to talk bone about the joy of
• 12:22
  Speaker 5: Thursday night football tonight, the Packers strong out Michaels, the
• 12:26
  Speaker 5: Packers who, um, had a brutal, brutal, um, uh, loss
• 12:32
  Speaker 5: against Minnesota where the Vikings scored 29 straight points and, uh,
• 12:37
  Speaker 5: and a comeback win over the jets in overtime, uh,
• 12:40
  Speaker 5: They haven't exactly been on fire and they will take
• 12:43
  Speaker 5: on a Falcons team who has their fans lighting themselves
• 12:48
  Speaker 5: on fire. How you feel about this matchup tonight, Boney?
• 12:52
  Speaker 3: Look, the Packers obviously have not looked great, but I
• 12:55
  Speaker 3: would be very surprised. If this game is close, it's
• 13:01
  Speaker 3: the first home game for Green Bay.
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: Short week. Atlanta's a mess.
• 13:06
  Speaker 3: To me, this feels, the NFL's weird, but this feels
• 13:10
  Speaker 3: like a great spot for the Falcons to get blown
• 13:13
  Speaker 3: out again.
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Did you see what the point spread is on
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: this game, though?
• 13:18
  Speaker 7: No.
• 13:19
  Speaker 3: Packers at home, home opener. are favored by four and
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: a half. That is not a lot of trust in
• 13:24
  Speaker 3: the backers. I was thinking this might be like seven, eight,
• 13:26
  Speaker 3: somewhere in the neighborhood.
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: That is... Man, that is... Vegas not impressed with Green Bay.
• 13:31
  Speaker 3: I know that Penix is back, right? So maybe that
• 13:34
  Speaker 3: plays a little... I mean, it's not Cooper Rush. Yeah,
• 13:36
  Speaker 3: it's Penix and Tua. Both those guys come back. But still,
• 13:39
  Speaker 3: I would think that... You know what that tells me, Mac?
• 13:41
  Speaker 3: That people also are losing faith in... the Green Bay
• 13:45
  Speaker 3: Packers as well as not being very good.
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: And they should. They have not looked good. I thought
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: this was a good spot for Green Bay, but that
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: makes me wonder there, won't it? Yeah, it's going to
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: be interesting.
• 13:57
  Speaker 5: We will see. I mean, remember the Falcons played with Pittsburgh.
• 14:00
  Speaker 5: It was a seven-point game. The difference was a T.J.
• 14:02
  Speaker 5: Watt pick six. So, like, that's the thing is, like,
• 14:05
  Speaker 5: we heard a lot of this negative energy from not
• 14:07
  Speaker 5: a lot, but a few folks with the negative energy
• 14:09
  Speaker 5: and negative energy crew as the Falcons were supposed to
• 14:12
  Speaker 5: beat him by 31. Pittsburgh didn't. Now, Pittsburgh's got their
• 14:15
  Speaker 5: own issues. They offensively look terrible in their own right.
• 14:17
  Speaker 5: But Green Bay doesn't look great. So if it was
• 14:19
  Speaker 5: a seven point game or something, a 10 point game,
• 14:22
  Speaker 5: the four and a half is a bit surprising. But anyway,
• 14:26
  Speaker 5: that's what we have tonight. That's the first of three
• 14:28
  Speaker 5: straight weeks of national TV. falcons games mad dog russo
• 14:33
  Speaker 5: was screaming about it on espn.
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: Yesterday what are you doing And I don't blame him.
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: I got to be honest, Bone.
• 14:40
  Speaker 3: Everybody, Stevie Wonder, could see that the Atlanta Falcons were
• 14:44
  Speaker 3: going to be hot garbage.
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: Why are they on primetime? Because of B. John Robinson?
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: Is that why?
• 14:49
  Speaker 5: Because if the Falcons fall behind by two, three scores
• 14:52
  Speaker 5: every primetime game, you ain't going to see B.
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: John Robinson do a whole lot of crap.
• 14:56
  Speaker 3: It's not like they were an offseason darling where all
• 14:59
  Speaker 3: of a sudden they ended up with injuries in training camp.
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: They.
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: What was the draw to them?
• 15:04
  Speaker 3: Is it just Bijan? Do they get intoxicated by their
• 15:09
  Speaker 3: skill position guys?
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: I think so.
• 15:10
  Speaker 5: Because, again, if you have garbage at quarterback, your skill
• 15:12
  Speaker 5: position guys ain't going to touch it. Kyle Pitts has
• 15:14
  Speaker 5: one catch. You know what I mean?
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: Can I guess, Max, something that Mad Dog Russo said also?
• 15:20
  Speaker 3: It means to sit there and tell me I got
• 15:21
  Speaker 3: to take my gummies, I got to go find this
• 15:24
  Speaker 3: damn thing, Amazon, the Amazon channel, I got to find Amazon,
• 15:29
  Speaker 3: and then sit there, make my bets, and watch this garbage.
• 15:33
  Speaker 3: I don't even know where Amazon, the Amazon jungle app
• 15:36
  Speaker 3: even is.
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: They were. That is true. He already doesn't like the
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: fact that these are streaming games. The old unc.
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: When I could call you, you're like a great unc.
• 15:46
  Speaker 3: Al Michaels deserves better than this.
• 15:49
  Speaker 5: He was being bashed on first take yesterday because he
• 15:51
  Speaker 5: showed up with his New York Daily News and his
• 15:53
  Speaker 5: New York Post print edition.
• 15:55
  Speaker 3: They're like, bro, you're the last guy reading those things.
• 15:58
  Speaker 3: He will not give in, man. That is a great
• 16:00
  Speaker 3: hunk that will not give in.
• 16:03
  Speaker 5: We do need to mention a little bit of Hornets news, Boney.
• 16:07
  Speaker 5: ESPN's ranking their top 100 players. Bottom 50 featured Nas
• 16:13
  Speaker 5: Reed and Kobe White. They were kind of bottom 15,
• 16:15
  Speaker 5: I feel like. But Khan Kanipal and Brandon Miller were
• 16:19
  Speaker 5: revealed in the top 50. Khan was, or Brandon was 46.
• 16:24
  Speaker 5: Khan was 48. Jake Fisher the other day said, um
• 16:29
  Speaker 5: that he what he is hearing is that amen thompson
• 16:32
  Speaker 5: type contract basically five years 40 plus 40 41 million
• 16:38
  Speaker 5: he thinks there's a chance miller could get something like
• 16:41
  Speaker 5: that here pretty soon so that's something that that will
• 16:44
  Speaker 5: be uh will.
• 16:45
  Speaker 3: Be tracking basketball writer brett siegel put up a poll
• 16:48
  Speaker 3: overnight that said who would you rather give 200 million
• 16:50
  Speaker 3: dollars to uh durin or brandon miller and 71 percent
• 16:55
  Speaker 3: of replies so far have been on brandon miller's side
• 16:57
  Speaker 3: of that uh that, that, uh, that poll.
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: Oh, nice.
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: Nice.
• 17:01
  Speaker 3: I mean, the only thing I would be slightly worried
• 17:03
  Speaker 3: about is the injuries, you know? Um, but other than that,
• 17:08
  Speaker 3: I mean, I think, I think this is a, if he,
• 17:11
  Speaker 3: if he can, I mean, he was playing bone on
• 17:13
  Speaker 3: a shoulder that would require surgery at the end of
• 17:16
  Speaker 3: the season all year last year. And he played like that,
• 17:18
  Speaker 3: played the best he ever has. So it's like, um, God,
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: if he could just be healthy, man, we got a player.
• 17:24
  Speaker 3: And I think Even more will be on his plate
• 17:26
  Speaker 3: now with LaMelo Ball not there in terms of creating contu.
• 17:31
  Speaker 3: Also wanted to mention, Bo, the Hornets announced all their
• 17:34
  Speaker 3: TV affiliates. They're doing the over-air TV thing in multiple markets.
• 17:38
  Speaker 3: It's not just Charlotte, Raleigh, and Greensboro. Now, they've got
• 17:44
  Speaker 3: the actual, like, I guess it's the MyNet channels.
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: The actual channels.
• 17:49
  Speaker 5: It does look like a lot of the ones in, like,
• 17:51
  Speaker 5: South Carolina and Roanoke, Virginia are, like, the.
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: 1s.
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: Is that, like, the HD? What is that? What's going
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: on with that one? Bounce TV used to be on
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: for WBTV. Yeah, yeah.
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: I don't really.
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: But Raleigh and Greensboro are legit, like, over-the-air channels.
• 18:08
  Speaker 3: Mac, real quick before we get into the– The non-serious
• 18:12
  Speaker 3: sports stuff wanted to send our love, our thoughts and
• 18:14
  Speaker 3: prayers to Daryl Waltrip and the Waltrip family. It was
• 18:17
  Speaker 3: announced yesterday via a release from the family that DW,
• 18:21
  Speaker 3: NASCAR legend, broadcasting legend, will be stepping away from the
• 18:25
  Speaker 3: public eye. He's okay, but he's dealing with FTD, a
• 18:30
  Speaker 3: progressive brain disease. So the NASCAR world all was sending
• 18:34
  Speaker 3: their thoughts to DW yesterday.
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: We certainly do.
• 18:36
  Speaker 3: A guy that we love for who he was as
• 18:39
  Speaker 3: a driver and a broadcaster as well. So all the love, Matt,
• 18:43
  Speaker 3: to a guy I know that you watch forever in DW.
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah, man. Old Jaws. That's sad to hear. That really is.
• 18:49
  Speaker 5: And then we always think of these brain injuries. With
• 18:54
  Speaker 5: football players.
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: Yep.
• 18:56
  Speaker 5: The family statement said that this is complicated by possible CTE,
• 19:01
  Speaker 5: which is likely.
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: From injuries during his racing career. And we know the.
• 19:05
  Speaker 5: Concussions are the mammoth reason why Junior stepped away.
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: Yep.
• 19:10
  Speaker 5: And Carl Edwards. And Carl Edwards, too. So it's a
• 19:14
  Speaker 5: problem with those boys, too, man. So praying for DW
• 19:17
  Speaker 5: and his family. That's horrible.
• 19:18
  Speaker 3: DW, all-time character in the sports world. When we come back,
• 19:22
  Speaker 3: Dave Canales, you're going to hear him talk about the
• 19:25
  Speaker 3: decision about Jonathan Brooks. And we had the chance yesterday
• 19:29
  Speaker 3: to talk to one of the most popular guys in
• 19:31
  Speaker 3: the football world, Scott Hanson of the Red Zone Channel.
• 19:35
  Speaker 3: The thing that people most talked about in the interview
• 19:37
  Speaker 3: was Wait till you hear about how he spends his
• 19:40
  Speaker 3: Sundays eating-wise. What's his routine? You'll be fascinated. Sports Radio,
• 19:44
  Speaker 3: 92.7 WFNZ.
• 20:10
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean, just day to day, see how it feels.
• 20:13
  Speaker 7: It's not really anything that I'm too worried about. Just,
• 20:16
  Speaker 7: you know, want to be smart with it. But it
• 20:18
  Speaker 7: happened in the game sometime like right before halftime popped
• 20:22
  Speaker 7: up and it felt like a bruise at first. But,
• 20:25
  Speaker 7: you know, we just want to be ultra precautious and
• 20:28
  Speaker 7: just make sure that we're taking care of it.
• 20:34
  Speaker 2: There you go.
• 20:34
  Speaker 5: Devin Lloyd trying to make everybody feel calm here. The
• 20:38
  Speaker 5: reigning NFC defensive player of the week. The easiest award
• 20:43
  Speaker 5: bone that they have given out probably in a long time.
• 20:48
  Speaker 5: I believe somewhere around 230, I tweeted out, just hand
• 20:51
  Speaker 5: him the award.
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: And they have.
• 20:54
  Speaker 5: Yeah, you're not going to top that performance on the
• 20:56
  Speaker 5: defensive side of the ball. That might be the defensive
• 20:59
  Speaker 5: player of the week for the year. By the time
• 21:02
  Speaker 5: it's all said and done, unless he wants to top
• 21:04
  Speaker 5: that a couple times.
• 21:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah, he might have won the DPOI the first half
• 21:07
  Speaker 3: the other day, never mind for the week.
• 21:09
  Speaker 5: Man, yeah, that was special, and it kept happening more
• 21:12
  Speaker 5: and more. Here's another play. Here's another interception. And this one,
• 21:15
  Speaker 5: he's running back into the end zone. So anyway, got
• 21:18
  Speaker 5: the calf injury. You heard it there. Late first half.
• 21:23
  Speaker 5: Didn't seem to slow him down, so hopefully this is
• 21:26
  Speaker 5: just a, hey, no need to push it with him.
• 21:29
  Speaker 5: Make sure he's ready to go against the Browns. The
• 21:31
  Speaker 5: Browns injury report, Bone, they've got a bunch of limiteds
• 21:34
  Speaker 5: on there. The DNPs are the ones I really look for,
• 21:38
  Speaker 5: and the only DNP is Tevin Jenkins, their right guard.
• 21:44
  Speaker 5: So that's about it there. Now we'll see if any
• 21:47
  Speaker 5: of those limiteds go in the wrong direction. But right now,
• 21:51
  Speaker 5: it looks like they don't have anything too severe. But
• 21:54
  Speaker 5: they do still have Deshaun Watson at quarterback, though. They
• 21:58
  Speaker 5: should list that on the injury report.
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: We do.
• 22:01
  Speaker 3: And we do have a few days for him to
• 22:02
  Speaker 3: get in trouble also. So we'll see what happens between
• 22:04
  Speaker 3: now and Sunday. Do we have the clip of him, Fit?
• 22:07
  Speaker 5: We should play the clip of him here. Not that
• 22:10
  Speaker 5: we aren't going to talk about him later when we
• 22:12
  Speaker 5: break out. the big victory formula bone. But this is
• 22:16
  Speaker 5: Deshaun Watson talking about playing in front of the home
• 22:19
  Speaker 5: fans for the first time in the regular season. Of course,
• 22:22
  Speaker 5: when he did in the preseason and struggled and they
• 22:24
  Speaker 5: booed him, he made him even more mad by saying,
• 22:27
  Speaker 5: this seems personal. I wonder why they wouldn't like you personally.
• 22:30
  Speaker 5: And it also could be that you've been terrible and
• 22:32
  Speaker 5: a waste of money. But now listen to, he wants
• 22:36
  Speaker 5: it to all be good this week. Happy vibes with
• 22:38
  Speaker 5: the fans this week.
• 22:39
  Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean, the biggest thing, I don't ever try
• 22:42
  Speaker 8: to go at war with the fans. So I think
• 22:44
  Speaker 8: the biggest thing is just, you know, ready for support,
• 22:46
  Speaker 8: ready to feel their energy, ready to get this big
• 22:48
  Speaker 8: dub for the city of Cleveland and, you know, continue
• 22:52
  Speaker 8: this great feeling that we have this week. So that's
• 22:55
  Speaker 8: my motto is just keep pushing forward, find a way
• 22:57
  Speaker 8: to win on Sunday to, you know, take advantage of
• 23:00
  Speaker 8: the opposing team and get a double.
• 23:03
  Speaker 5: So there you got his little muffled little locker room.
• 23:05
  Speaker 5: Although they didn't play ping pong. I noticed in the
• 23:07
  Speaker 5: background of their locker room, but basically he wants everything
• 23:11
  Speaker 5: to be Kumbaya this week.
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: And I will just say it right now.
• 23:14
  Speaker 5: Bone, my first victory formula nugget is going to be
• 23:19
  Speaker 5: just make them boo him. Like literally let's, let's make
• 23:23
  Speaker 5: it two straight weeks of the quarterback getting booed mercilessly.
• 23:26
  Speaker 5: Let's start on defense. Let's pick him early and and
• 23:29
  Speaker 5: let's just turn those vibes. Because I got to tell you, Bone,
• 23:32
  Speaker 5: some of the vibes I'm getting as I listen to
• 23:35
  Speaker 5: Cleveland stuff, and we'll talk to Nick Wilson about it.
• 23:37
  Speaker 5: He's going to join us. He's got a little Nick
• 23:39
  Speaker 5: Wilson reunion at 925 today. But the vibe I get
• 23:43
  Speaker 5: is they feel like they won a playoff game last week.
• 23:46
  Speaker 5: The fact that they went into Tampa and won that game,
• 23:49
  Speaker 5: Deshaun Watson actually played good football. They're flying high. We
• 23:54
  Speaker 5: need to just turn those smiles into frowns real quick.
• 23:59
  Speaker 3: Matt, so many good things happened on Sunday for the Panthers.
• 24:03
  Speaker 3: The Panthers blow out a rival. The Browns beat a
• 24:06
  Speaker 3: division rival. And because of that, the Panthers will now
• 24:10
  Speaker 3: see Deshaun Watson as the starting quarterback in Cleveland, where
• 24:15
  Speaker 3: despite the vibes being good because the Browns won, they're
• 24:19
  Speaker 3: a Devin Lloyd Mack play away. from that crowd turning
• 24:23
  Speaker 3: on deshaun that's what i'm saying that's my number one
• 24:25
  Speaker 3: thing i love the fact they beat the bucks but
• 24:27
  Speaker 3: that also gets them deshaun watson starting at home which
• 24:30
  Speaker 3: could implode any given moment.
• 24:33
  Speaker 5: It could i'm telling they could turn like they all
• 24:35
  Speaker 5: right now riding high man but uh that we can
• 24:38
  Speaker 5: turn that so that's what i'm looking for early on
• 24:41
  Speaker 5: sunday at least that's what i'm hoping for Right now, though,
• 24:44
  Speaker 5: we want you to hear someone else talk, some Carolina Panthers.
• 24:48
  Speaker 5: This is Scott Hanson, the NFL Red Zone host. Each Sunday,
• 24:55
  Speaker 5: bouncing around all the games, all the scores. He does
• 24:58
  Speaker 5: such a great job with that. He's got an amazing
• 25:00
  Speaker 5: story about how hungry he is when he gets done and.
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: What he does.
• 25:05
  Speaker 5: To refuel after his long marathon of NFL football. But
• 25:10
  Speaker 5: the first thing, we wanted to talk to Scott Hanson,
• 25:12
  Speaker 5: who was in town at the Lowe's in Huntersville, representing
• 25:16
  Speaker 5: Duracell yesterday. The first thing was Bryce Young in that
• 25:20
  Speaker 5: Panther offense.
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: It starts right at the top there. I mean, this
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: is why they drafted Bryce Young. This is why he
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: was the player coming out of college. And I know
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: that early on there was a dip in the expectations
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: and saying, oh, man, is he really or isn't he really?
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: We saw that little probably about a month window at
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: the end of last season where it was like, Look,
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: I know some of these games don't matter for some
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: of the opponents that they're playing here, but he's throwing
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: the ball. He can be a high-volume, high-production passer. Obviously,
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: the playoffs last year and then coming back into the season,
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: two games in, he's number two in passing yards in
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: the entire NFL right now, slinging it around. There is
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: real reason for big optimism there. in this team this year.
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: And I know I heard about the Jonathan Brooks here
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: this morning already. That's a tough loss there. I know
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: they're already scrambling to look at some more names to
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: bring into the franchise at the running back position. But yeah,
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: I mean, come on. We know what Ted Arroa McMillan is.
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: Jalen Coker is one of the lesser talked about, but
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: more productive wide receivers in the NFL in 2026 years
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: so far. fun stuff on the offensive side and fun
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: stuff for us on red zone for sure.
• 26:40
  Speaker 3: Scott, where do you think the truth lies on the
• 26:41
  Speaker 3: defensive side? Because it was a horrible start against the bears.
• 26:44
  Speaker 3: They turn around and then Devin Lloyd leads them with
• 26:47
  Speaker 3: one of the best linebacker games, really stat wise ever. Where,
• 26:52
  Speaker 3: where do you think the truth is with that side
• 26:53
  Speaker 3: of the ball though?
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: It's somewhere in between the two. Look, the Bears exploded,
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: caught them. I was like, what are we doing on
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: the defensive line for the Carolina Panthers, the way that
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: the Bears were moving them off the line of scrimmage?
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: And then you look at that Atlanta game. I think
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: it's in between the two, and the reason I say
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: that is because there are new additions, right? I mean,
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: when you look at this team trying to coalesce on
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: the defensive side of the football, it might take a
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: little while now. Devin Lloyd just asserted himself as I
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: think the awards come out today. There's no way he
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: pardoned the double negative. There's no way he won't be
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: an NFC defensive player of the week. Uh, but, um,
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: But yeah, I think the truth lies in between the two.
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: And really, it'll be the ebb and flow of individual
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: games as to what we see out of the defense.
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: Can Bryce Young in the offense give them a touchdown lead,
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: give them a double-digit lead, and then change the dynamic
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: of the type of defense they're going to be able
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: to play in the second half of games? I think
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: that'll prove itself to be true based on the opponent
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: week to week.
• 28:01
  Speaker 5: Scott, I'm telling you right now, if Devin Lloyd were
• 28:03
  Speaker 5: to not get Defensive Player of the Week in the NFC,
• 28:06
  Speaker 5: I would hijack your studio on Sunday. I would tie
• 28:10
  Speaker 5: you up and I would demand the NFL. I'm not
• 28:12
  Speaker 5: letting Hanson out until we get this award. Because, yeah,
• 28:16
  Speaker 5: that was, God, that was filthy, that game.
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: And the most aesthetic defensive play that we might see
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: all year with his interception. And, of course, you have
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: to say which interception we're talking about. Of course, that
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: first one with the stiff arm.
• 28:30
  Speaker 2: Oh, what a run back.
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: And the juke back to the inside. It was a
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: one-handed interception, too, that, like, the TV replay didn't have
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: a real tight iso of it. He stabs it with
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: one hand. He switches the football. stiff arms, my man
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: into the, into the, the, the nether regions. And then
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: now he's not going to, he's not going to, if
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: you watch the end of that, that run back, he's
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: not going to want to run the 40 yard dash
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: at the scouting combine this upcoming year. And he started
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: to run out of gas there at the end, but man,
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: what a play, what a play and what a player.
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: You know, he had a 99 yard pick six last year,
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: the longest play of from scrimmage all season. There was
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: a couple of kick returns that I think were 100 plus,
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: you know, but he had the longest. I mean, he
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: is one of the best pass defending interior linebackers in
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: the sport. and big things ahead for him this year.
• 29:24
  Speaker 3: Scott, do you think this ultimately is a two-team race
• 29:27
  Speaker 3: in the NFC South, Saints, Panthers, or do you think
• 29:31
  Speaker 3: the Bucs can still get back in this thing? It's early,
• 29:33
  Speaker 3: but what do you think is going on with them,
• 29:35
  Speaker 3: and what's your projection of them?
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: Look, let's throw a little bit of bucket of realism
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: on it. here. That NFC South, we have no idea.
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: I mean, tell me what the winning record of the
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: NFC South team is going to be. Is someone going
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: to get the 12 wins in that? I don't think so. So, yeah,
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: I went so early in the year. Right off Baker
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: and the Bucs at your own peril. You know, the Saints,
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: some people in the preseason predicted, hey, you know, I
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: think Tyler Shuck might be a franchise quarterback or at
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: least a viable starting quarterback. That looks like that could
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: be coming true there. But no, I think this race,
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: it'll be... the whole season and depending on if Atlanta
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: can get their quarterback position settled, don't write them off
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: just yet. I think NFC, it won't be, the South
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: won't be decided until around Christmas time. I'm guessing we're later. Yeah.
• 30:29
  Speaker 5: What do you think about that Saints team? I like
• 30:32
  Speaker 5: even the rally and the loss and hell, they might've
• 30:34
  Speaker 5: got screwed out of a touchdown against Detroit in the
• 30:36
  Speaker 5: first half, but even that, that Detroit loss was kind
• 30:39
  Speaker 5: of impressive. The rally at Baltimore, like, what do you
• 30:41
  Speaker 5: think of this Saints team?
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: You know, I look at them, and if you look
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: at the personnel, you're like, okay, where are they getting
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: it from? Now, Chris Olave is elite, elite, right? But
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: he obviously has dealt with an injury history in the past.
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: But it's Tyler Shuck. It's like, really? They got this guy?
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: What was he, third round, fourth round pick? And he
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: seems unflappable in there. He seems to have meshed really
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: well with what Kellen Moore demands out of that position.
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: And they can score with some people now. And then
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: the defense still has pieces, but I think they're playing
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: a little bit above their heads right now or their
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: opponents to this point aren't as impressive as what we thought.
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: Maybe the Detroit Lions aren't what we thought the Detroit
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: Lions would be. But, yeah, no, it's going to be fun.
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: And then when you all go tangle with them twice
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: this year, that's going to be a fun, fun time
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: as well. And it's the South, man. I mean, I
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: know people– In the national scene, they can hate on
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: it and say, yeah, win the division with a sub-500 record.
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: It's competitive football. It's absolutely competitive football. And then even
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: go back to the home playoff game that you all
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: got after winning the division championship last year. Did the
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: Rams come in here and steamroll?
• 31:55
  Speaker 4: No.
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: Heck no. No. I mean, that was– yeah. So, yeah,
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: fun season.
• 32:00
  Speaker 3: Scott, NFC South, we say not for the weak. That's
• 32:03
  Speaker 3: our motto around here. Try to use that on Red
• 32:06
  Speaker 3: Zone Channel.
• 32:06
  Speaker 2: What's up, boy?
• 32:08
  Speaker 3: Speaking of Red Zone Channel, I know you've addressed the
• 32:11
  Speaker 3: not using the bathroom thing a million times.
• 32:13
  Speaker 2: I'm not going to ask you about that.
• 32:14
  Speaker 3: But when I watch you on Red Zone every Sunday,
• 32:17
  Speaker 3: I think, my man, Scott Hanson's got to be hungry.
• 32:20
  Speaker 3: If I was doing that show, I'd have like four
• 32:22
  Speaker 3: orders at my door already from DoorDash. Scott, what's the
• 32:26
  Speaker 3: food like, man? How do you handle Red Zone days eating-wise? Because, man,
• 32:31
  Speaker 3: I don't think I could handle that.
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: Well, do you mean during the show or after the show?
• 32:37
  Speaker 2: Well, kind of both.
• 32:38
  Speaker 3: Obviously, you can't eat during the show. So what do
• 32:40
  Speaker 3: you eat before and after?
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so at the NFL Network headquarters, we have a
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: big cafeteria. The chefs are great there, and they make
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: me the same dense protein, salty breakfast. I get scrambled
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: egg whites, turkey burger patty, no bun, crispy salty bacon,
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: a big muffin for kind of some filler in my gut.
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: I eat a big thing of mixed fruit, and then
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: the secret ingredient is kalamata olives. Right. A little purple
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: Kalamata olives, because I need I need as much sodium
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: inside of me to retain water so that I famously
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: don't take a bathroom break during the show. And that
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: fills me up. I eat that two hours and 45
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: minutes before the show, like clockwork every single Sunday morning.
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: And then I don't eat again. But then at the
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: end of the show.
• 33:31
  Speaker 7: Yes.
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: Uncle Scott's pretty famished at the end of the show
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: for not eating for– it's been probably 10 hours since
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: I had a bite of food in my stomach by
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: the time I get home. And I flip on Sunday
• 33:43
  Speaker 1: night football on my television, and I will– this is
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: kind of a bad confession, but I will order– Postmates
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: and DoorDash, and I let them race to my front door.
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: And I might mix, I want a bacon cheeseburger and
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: I want Chinese. I want a burrito and I want spaghetti.
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: And I will see which one of them can get
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: to my door first. And sometimes they have met in
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: my hallway.
• 34:12
  Speaker 2: Oh, my God. This sounds like something Bone would do, Bone.
• 34:15
  Speaker 2: This is amazing.
• 34:16
  Speaker 3: I've often sent multiple drivers out there, Scott, to see
• 34:19
  Speaker 3: who can get there.
• 34:20
  Speaker 2: First, like a race. What a combination of foods you're ordering.
• 34:24
  Speaker 5: That is remarkable, man. What a Sunday you have, brother.
• 34:27
  Speaker 5: You're eating like that on Sunday night. You get to
• 34:30
  Speaker 5: do for a living, watching all the games, going to
• 34:32
  Speaker 5: this game, going to that game. What a Sunday you have,
• 34:35
  Speaker 5: my friend.
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: I'm a blessed man. I'm a blessed man, and I
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: hope to serve the audience as well as can possibly
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: be done. And here's the great news, guys. We still have,
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: what is it? We still have 16 more Sundays of
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: showing you every touchdown from every game going forward.
• 34:51
  Speaker 5: Man, I want to be at the Hanson home bone
• 34:53
  Speaker 5: for Sunday night football. That sounds like some fun dining
• 34:57
  Speaker 5: going on there.
• 34:58
  Speaker 3: You can watch so much action on the Red Zone channel, Mac,
• 35:01
  Speaker 3: except the Falcons.
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: It's true.
• 35:03
  Speaker 2: Yet to appear on offense. They're not going to be.
• 35:05
  Speaker 3: On for a while either because they're not on there
• 35:06
  Speaker 3: for a while.
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: Yet to appear on offense. That is amazing.
• 35:09
  Speaker 5: God, Panthers, I am so proud that you continue what
• 35:12
  Speaker 5: the Steelers started and did not allow them to have
• 35:14
  Speaker 5: their first red zone possession of the season.
• 35:17
  Speaker 2: That's glorious.
• 35:18
  Speaker 3: When we come back, a lot of college sports stuff,
• 35:21
  Speaker 3: including C.J. Bailey finally talking about the Music City Miscue,
• 35:26
  Speaker 3: and we have a new media controversy involving Arch Manning.
• 35:30
  Speaker 2: At Texas Sports Radio, 92.7 WFNZ. Happy Thursday, everybody. One
• 35:52
  Speaker 2: day closer to the weekend.
• 35:53
  Speaker 5: We'll try to get you through a Thursday morning here
• 35:55
  Speaker 5: on the Mac and Bone Show. Talking so much dang football,
• 35:58
  Speaker 5: Panther football conversation, college football conversation with all these big
• 36:03
  Speaker 5: matchups coming up this weekend.
• 36:07
  Speaker 2: We got you locked in, man. Football and fun, baby.
• 36:09
  Speaker 2: Football and fun.
• 36:10
  Speaker 5: If you don't get those two things while you're listening
• 36:12
  Speaker 5: to the show, contact our customer service rep, Fetty Marlowe.
• 36:16
  Speaker 2: For a refund. Football, fun, and sometimes food. That's true.
• 36:20
  Speaker 2: That's true.
• 36:21
  Speaker 5: And all of that is fun. Food and football is
• 36:24
  Speaker 5: fun there. Let's see here. Did you say somebody was concerned, Bone,
• 36:28
  Speaker 5: about whether or not Scott Hansen will gain weight from.
• 36:31
  Speaker 3: All that eating on Sunday nights? I think Finney was
• 36:33
  Speaker 3: reading it off. It was JP in Mooresville. I'm guessing
• 36:36
  Speaker 3: Uncle Scott has a weight problem. Why? I will say
• 36:41
  Speaker 3: he's not eating that every day of the week, which
• 36:43
  Speaker 3: I think is probably would be a problem.
• 36:44
  Speaker 2: That's true. Like that menu that he read there is
• 36:47
  Speaker 2: what me and Finney eat every day.
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: Of the week.
• 36:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah, right now. Right now, Fitz trying to figure out
• 36:51
  Speaker 2: how do you do that only one day?
• 36:54
  Speaker 3: Yeah, he's talking cheeseburgers and Chinese food. That's my Saturday
• 36:56
  Speaker 3: and Sunday. Not just Sunday. He combined it into one
• 37:00
  Speaker 3: day and one meal specifically. I respect it.
• 37:03
  Speaker 2: I do. All right.
• 37:04
  Speaker 5: I would assume that's his cheat day. I'm going to
• 37:06
  Speaker 5: assume that that's what Sunday should be called. The guy's eating.
• 37:11
  Speaker 3: Whatever kind of olives he's talking about. The guy deserves
• 37:13
  Speaker 3: something there. Yeah, that morning meal is so healthy. I
• 37:15
  Speaker 3: think he deserves that. You know, I do feel that way.
• 37:18
  Speaker 3: All right, let's hit you with a couple of college
• 37:20
  Speaker 3: things here. We will save Will Wade and the eye-rolling
• 37:25
  Speaker 3: audio from Will Wade's presser for later in the show.
• 37:28
  Speaker 3: That will be brought up later in the show as
• 37:30
  Speaker 3: he defends his unconventional methods for roster building.
• 37:35
  Speaker 5: We'll get into it later. We'll blast Will Wade only
• 37:38
  Speaker 5: one time today. I was going to double dip. We'll
• 37:40
  Speaker 5: do it one time. He's in a new segment at 745.
• 37:43
  Speaker 5: He's a prominent feature today. We're going to save him
• 37:45
  Speaker 5: for that. We're going to save him for that premiere edition.
• 37:48
  Speaker 5: Let's go NC State. Let's go current NC State. So C.J.
• 37:52
  Speaker 5: Bailey didn't speak after the game on Saturday afternoon. I
• 37:55
  Speaker 5: can't blame him for not wanting to after he fumbled
• 37:58
  Speaker 5: the football on that ridiculous attempt to take a safety
• 38:02
  Speaker 5: while running clock down.
• 38:03
  Speaker 2: And my God, it's being listed.
• 38:06
  Speaker 3: I saw Stuart Mandelbone list off the three most ridiculous
• 38:09
  Speaker 3: ways to lose he has ever seen in college football.
• 38:13
  Speaker 2: One of them was there. Two of them are ACC recent.
• 38:16
  Speaker 2: One is state.
• 38:17
  Speaker 3: The other one is Mario Cristobal before we started believing
• 38:20
  Speaker 3: in him. When all they had to do is take
• 38:23
  Speaker 3: a knee and he tried to run a play and
• 38:24
  Speaker 3: they fumbled it to Georgia Tech and lost the game.
• 38:28
  Speaker 3: Duke had a bad one, too, in 2015 against Miami
• 38:31
  Speaker 3: on that return where they were down like six different
• 38:34
  Speaker 3: times and they didn't reverse it. on the kick return
• 38:37
  Speaker 3: remember that was a pretty rough one too is that
• 38:39
  Speaker 3: the one they got screwed on yeah yeah yeah i
• 38:41
  Speaker 3: didn't say that but i'm waiting for it i mean
• 38:43
  Speaker 3: even the acc admitted i think after the fact they
• 38:45
  Speaker 3: screwed y'all all right and now fast forward to 2026
• 38:49
  Speaker 3: where miami just screws you directly and takes your players
• 38:52
  Speaker 3: at the last minute anyway um that's just you're three
• 38:55
  Speaker 3: you know you don't need them we'll settle that on
• 38:56
  Speaker 3: the field like men this year that's true All right,
• 38:59
  Speaker 3: so let's get to C.J.
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: Bailey.
• 39:00
  Speaker 5: This is what he had to say to kind of
• 39:03
  Speaker 5: explain the final play and kind of where he's at
• 39:06
  Speaker 5: mentally about it.
• 39:07
  Speaker 9: So, you know, end of the game, you know, I just,
• 39:10
  Speaker 9: you know, was trying to, you know, get all the
• 39:12
  Speaker 9: clock out.
• 39:12
  Speaker 4: You know, that was my thought. And, you know, I'm just,
• 39:16
  Speaker 4: the biggest thing was just hold the ball, bro. That
• 39:18
  Speaker 4: was the biggest thing. And I was just trying to
• 39:19
  Speaker 4: run around, make a play, being competitive. Like, that's who
• 39:22
  Speaker 4: I am. I'm a competitive guy.
• 39:23
  Speaker 9: And I'll just compete until the final second, and it happens.
• 39:27
  Speaker 4: I follow the ball, I'm gonna pick myself up and
• 39:30
  Speaker 4: keep going. What did the coaches tell you to do
• 39:33
  Speaker 4: before the play?
• 39:34
  Speaker 9: It was a lot of communication with the coaches and us,
• 39:37
  Speaker 9: but They told me a lot of things. Like Coach
• 39:42
  Speaker 9: Doran said, we worked the play a couple times, but never.
• 39:46
  Speaker 4: In that situation.
• 39:46
  Speaker 9: That was my first time ever in that situation.
• 39:48
  Speaker 4: It didn't go the way I wanted it to. I
• 39:52
  Speaker 4: found the ball. It is what it is.
• 39:54
  Speaker 2: We've got to move forward.
• 39:56
  Speaker 3: CJ, we know you were trying to make a play.
• 39:58
  Speaker 3: That's part of the issue that happened there was you
• 40:00
  Speaker 3: were trying to make a play.
• 40:01
  Speaker 5: Yeah, it sounds like he was very concerned about trying
• 40:04
  Speaker 5: to run all the clock out. And I don't know
• 40:07
  Speaker 5: if if that was emphasized by the coaching staff, because
• 40:12
  Speaker 5: that doesn't that shouldn't really matter that much. You're probably
• 40:16
  Speaker 5: not going to run all six seconds off. You're probably
• 40:19
  Speaker 5: going to have to squib kick it. But I don't
• 40:22
  Speaker 5: know if he was like told that, hey, try and
• 40:25
  Speaker 5: see if you can get all this time, because that
• 40:27
  Speaker 5: shouldn't have been on his mind. And I I have
• 40:30
  Speaker 5: I have given Bailey the primary blame because because what
• 40:33
  Speaker 5: Dave Doran said, he did tell him, which is run around,
• 40:38
  Speaker 5: go down. Don't let somebody hit you. I have to
• 40:40
  Speaker 5: be honest with you. The best advice is just to
• 40:42
  Speaker 5: run around, go to the back of the end zone.
• 40:44
  Speaker 5: And when someone gets near you, go out, step out
• 40:46
  Speaker 5: the back. So I don't know if the best advice
• 40:50
  Speaker 5: was given to him by the coaching staff.
• 40:52
  Speaker 3: It seems like there's a lot of blame to go
• 40:55
  Speaker 3: around for a very simple, basic, common sense play, right? Hell,
• 41:01
  Speaker 3: offensive lineman, go grab somebody, hold somebody if you have to.
• 41:04
  Speaker 3: Go get a penalty. Just don't drop the ball. I
• 41:08
  Speaker 3: don't even think the offensive lineman blocked anybody.
• 41:10
  Speaker 2: No, they didn't.
• 41:10
  Speaker 5: That was another part of it. It's like, I guess
• 41:12
  Speaker 5: you feel like you don't need to block. But anyway, oh,
• 41:16
  Speaker 5: my God, State.
• 41:17
  Speaker 2: Seriously, State.
• 41:18
  Speaker 3: It's just another notch on the, oh, my God, what
• 41:22
  Speaker 3: did State do belt, right? If you would have told us, Matt,
• 41:24
  Speaker 3: going into the weekend— a team locally will have one
• 41:28
  Speaker 3: of the most talked about horrendous ways to lose. We've
• 41:31
  Speaker 3: ever seen our minds would probably say, we'd say, Oh no,
• 41:36
  Speaker 3: how did they lose to Vanderbilt? Right.
• 41:38
  Speaker 2: It's just the way, the way it is.
• 41:39
  Speaker 3: It's the stadiest play that's ever stated. I mean, seriously,
• 41:43
  Speaker 3: that is the, that is Wolfpack. That's a dictionary definition
• 41:46
  Speaker 3: of Wolfpack. And I think Mac may have been understated
• 41:48
  Speaker 3: when he said that.
• 41:50
  Speaker 2: I was reading.
• 41:51
  Speaker 5: The athletic yesterday and they ranked bone. the top 10
• 41:55
  Speaker 5: most average teams in college football over the years. And
• 42:00
  Speaker 5: nothing sums up what we deal with year to year
• 42:04
  Speaker 5: with college football in the Carolinas than this list. Coming
• 42:07
  Speaker 5: in at number four, the Tar Heels. Coming in at
• 42:12
  Speaker 5: number three, your Gamecocks. And coming in at number one,
• 42:17
  Speaker 5: NC State. I was just like, yes, that's it. It's
• 42:21
  Speaker 5: just kind of, eh, football.
• 42:23
  Speaker 2: You know? Yeah.
• 42:26
  Speaker 5: That's a great promo. Football in the Carolinas. It's just like, eh,
• 42:31
  Speaker 5: maybe a good win here, maybe two bad losses.
• 42:34
  Speaker 2: It's just, oh, my Lord. All right, anyway.
• 42:37
  Speaker 5: But it was pointed out on there that Carolina and
• 42:40
  Speaker 5: South Carolina, they've made coaching changes during this period, right,
• 42:44
  Speaker 5: where they are considered very average.
• 42:46
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 42:47
  Speaker 5: They pointed out NC State has just stuck with a guy.
• 42:50
  Speaker 5: That leads our number one average team in college football.
• 42:54
  Speaker 5: And that is a fact right there that bothers state
• 42:57
  Speaker 5: fans a little bit.
• 42:58
  Speaker 2: You don't want to try for a little bit more
• 43:00
  Speaker 2: than this?
• 43:00
  Speaker 3: This is the biggest game that Beamer's had yet. on
• 43:05
  Speaker 3: Saturday against Bama because they win. He's got to be, right?
• 43:08
  Speaker 3: He's got to find ways to get, I think, multiple
• 43:11
  Speaker 3: wins now of a big nature now that they lost
• 43:14
  Speaker 3: one that we thought entering the season they could get.
• 43:18
  Speaker 3: I mean, if they– this game is huge, Matt, because
• 43:21
  Speaker 3: they have to– They have to show up.
• 43:24
  Speaker 2: They have to look right.
• 43:25
  Speaker 3: You know, going down there and winning is tough, but
• 43:27
  Speaker 3: they can't have one of these games where their offense
• 43:30
  Speaker 3: does nothing. They lose 34-10. I'm not even saying necessarily
• 43:35
  Speaker 3: they have to win the game, but they have to
• 43:37
  Speaker 3: show up like they did a couple years ago at
• 43:39
  Speaker 3: Spamway and at least make it to the football game.
• 43:40
  Speaker 2: I'm hoping. I think they have a chance, but I'm hoping, man.
• 43:43
  Speaker 2: They've got to be competitive against Bama. And you know what?
• 43:45
  Speaker 2: After this game's over, the next one's the most important.
• 43:48
  Speaker 2: He is in a stretch where every game is going
• 43:51
  Speaker 2: to feel like you've got to get this one.
• 43:52
  Speaker 3: Okay, you didn't get last week. You've got to get
• 43:55
  Speaker 3: this one. And even if he gets one, don't have
• 43:57
  Speaker 3: a letdown.
• 43:57
  Speaker 2: Do it again.
• 43:58
  Speaker 5: So, man, the seat is hot. There's no doubt. I
• 44:02
  Speaker 5: wanted to mention this Arch Manning thing real quick. And
• 44:05
  Speaker 5: hopefully the tease there. Didn't alarm people. Well, maybe it
• 44:09
  Speaker 5: did alarm you into listening. Like, what did Arch Manning
• 44:11
  Speaker 5: do again? It's what he's not doing, Bone. His last
• 44:14
  Speaker 5: two press conferences since the Holly Roe, like him joking
• 44:18
  Speaker 5: around about the A.I. and her getting slapped on an A.I.
• 44:21
  Speaker 5: video by Sark and all the media laughing since that
• 44:24
  Speaker 5: whole big to do where he apologized, his his press
• 44:27
  Speaker 5: conference answers. have been ridiculously short. His press conference after
• 44:32
  Speaker 5: the game the other day against UTSA was like six questions,
• 44:36
  Speaker 5: 25 seconds worth of answers. And then the other day, Bone,
• 44:40
  Speaker 5: I don't even know how this is possible. I just
• 44:42
  Speaker 5: read this. I did not hear the full thing. 19
• 44:45
  Speaker 5: questions and like 55 seconds worth of answers.
• 44:50
  Speaker 2: I don't even know how that's possible. Bill Belichick is
• 44:53
  Speaker 2: smiling right now. Bill Belichick said finally. That's my disciple.
• 44:58
  Speaker 2: I finally taught somebody. Is this guy going to enter
• 45:00
  Speaker 2: the portal anytime soon?
• 45:01
  Speaker 1: I'd like to talk to this guy.
• 45:02
  Speaker 5: So the media is mad down there, and people are
• 45:06
  Speaker 5: saying to them, well— When there's outrage over their comments,
• 45:10
  Speaker 5: they're not going to want to talk. So I would
• 45:12
  Speaker 5: like Arch to maybe find a happy medium behind, you know,
• 45:17
  Speaker 5: absolutely horse laughing, Holly Roe getting slapped in an AI
• 45:20
  Speaker 5: video to like just one word answer.
• 45:23
  Speaker 3: Somewhere in the middle might be the happy ground. What
• 45:25
  Speaker 3: if he starts dressing like Chad Powers up there? Like
• 45:27
  Speaker 3: he's not Arch Manning?
• 45:30
  Speaker 5: Chad, if Texas had Chad Powers, I just watched an
• 45:32
  Speaker 5: episode again last night. I have not seen the show,
• 45:34
  Speaker 5: by the way. If Texas had Chad Powers, Bone, they
• 45:36
  Speaker 5: would win the national championship. Chad Powers, way better than
• 45:39
  Speaker 5: Eli Manning. That show gets rave reviews, man. I need
• 45:41
  Speaker 5: to watch that show.
• 45:42
  Speaker 2: I've got one episode left in this season. It's good, man. Yeah,
• 45:45
  Speaker 2: I need to see it. It seems silly.
• 45:46
  Speaker 5: And there's short episodes and there's six-episode seasons.
• 45:50
  Speaker 4: Oh, yeah.
• 45:50
  Speaker 2: You can watch it real quick, man.
• 45:52
  Speaker 1: Oh, yeah.
• 45:52
  Speaker 2: Speaking of good, Bryce Young, good. That sounds like Chad
• 45:56
  Speaker 2: Powers right there.
• 45:57
  Speaker 3: We're going to talk about people talking about Bryce Young.
• 46:01
  Speaker 3: Colin Cowherd, Richard Simmons, Adam Thielen, Richard Sherman.
• 46:06
  Speaker 2: Not Richard Simmons.
• 46:10
  Speaker 3: We're going to do a lot of Bryce Young talk
• 46:12
  Speaker 3: when we come back. Richard Sherman, not Richard Simmons. Sports
• 46:16
  Speaker 3: Radio 92.7 WFNZ. Richard Sherman.
• 46:17
  Speaker 1: Sherm.
