• 0:19
  Speaker 1: Sports Radio, 92.7 WFNZ, 9 o'clockers, welcome aboard. We're rolling
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: into the final hour of the show with some steam.
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: We have finally started to talk about the Falcons. Still
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: talking defense a little bit. Tomorrow we'll be in full tilt.
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: Panther Friday mode about the Falcons. And tomorrow we got
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: some big games involving teams in the Carolinas to talk
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: about tomorrow. And one of them we got to talk
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: about right now. That UNC Clemson game. Very intriguing. Not
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: just us locally. A lot of national folks talking about that.
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: And can Carolina pull the upset? Only around a three
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: and a half point dog at Clemson. Let's talk about it.
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: Let's talk about the performance against ETSU last week, the
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: 35-3 win and the start to the season with Jones Angel,
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: voice of the Tar Heels, who joins us in this
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: hour every Thursday. Jones, how you doing this week, man?
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: What's happening?
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: Well, doing great, guys.
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: Good to talk with you as always.
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: And yeah, very steady win last week for Carolina. Never
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: really threatened in that one, as you would expect against ETSU.
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: And yeah, I think that game, though, is a nice
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: representation of kind of where Carolina is right now. Tar
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: Heels are 2-0. And how have they gotten there? You know,
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: it hasn't been super.
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: Flashy, but it's just been.
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: playing sound football, not turning the ball over a lot.
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: I think they have two through two games. They don't
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: have a ton of penalties. There's eight of them through
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: two games and kind of making the plays when they're there,
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: playing really good defense. This is pretty amazing to me, guys.
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: Since the first two drives of the TCU game where
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: the Horned Frogs kicked a field goal and scored a touchdown,
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: Carolina's only allowed three points on about three and a
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: half yards per play. In the next, I think it's
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: 17 drives against TCU and ETSU. So playing some really
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: good defense in there as well. And they'll need to
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: do all those things this weekend against Clemson for sure.
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: Jones, of the elements where the heels have improved that
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: we've seen so far, what has impressed you the most
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: and what do you think has improved the most with
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: this team?
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: I think it's that fundamentally sound nature of what they're doing. Yeah,
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: Carolina was... And we talked about this a couple weeks ago, guys,
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: about kind of the requirement at the beginning of the
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: season to just, and I don't say this in a
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: snarky way or something, but just to play competent football.
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: Because I think there were times last year where Carolina
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: did not just lose when the Heels were 4-8, not
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: a very good record. But they just didn't play very
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: sound football either. There was just some less-than-desired football out there.
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: And there's a lot of different ways you can measure that.
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: Just in those last two games last year against Duke
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: and State, Carolina was penalized 23 times in those two
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: games for 230 yards of penalty yardage. They gave up
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: well over 500 yards rushing in the last three games
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: last year against Wake, Duke, and State. And so to
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: see those numbers, now there's a long way to go. Shoot,
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: Carolina still has 10 games left. But to be able
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: to just play sound football, don't beat yourself, do the
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: basic things that you're trying to do, and then see
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: where you are, to me, that's a step forward. And
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: it also, guys, who's that sound like? That sounds like
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: a Bill Belichick coach team, right? A team that doesn't
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: make a ton of mistakes, is really solid in what
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: they're doing. And I think you're starting to see his
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: impact more and more on the field, whether it's just
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: because he's been there more than a year. You have
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: guys who are in their second year in the program
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: under Coach Belichick. This team has been together longer than
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: last year's team, certainly leading into the year. And I
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: think all those different things are leading to what you're
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: seeing on the field for Carolina.
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: We're talking with Jones Angel, voice of the Heels, noon
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: on Saturday in Death Valley. Heels and Clemson, 11 a.m. pregame.
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: Of course, WBT, our sister station down the hall, is
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: a Tar Heel Radio Network affiliate. Jones, this game against Clemson,
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: we've all kind of felt like it feels like it's
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: going to be close. It feels like a defensive battle.
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: Do you sense the same sort of thing or no?
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: It's just a lot of storylines going into this one, right?
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: I mean, it's hard not to start with the quarterback
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: spot for Clemson with Tate Reynolds, the true freshman, getting
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: the start. How does he react? And I don't know
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: if anybody knows. That's part of being a true freshman
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: at the college level. Now, he has been in there
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: in Clemson's first two games, and he's gotten plenty of
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: snaps against LSU and Georgia Southern. And he's had some success.
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: He's had some moments that he'd probably like to have back.
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: And that's football, and that's especially a freshman playing football.
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: And so, yeah, how does he react in the situation
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: I think is going to be really important for both teams.
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: He's really talented, but he's also very young. So how
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: does that play out is going to be critical, I think,
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: to who wins this game. for Carolina, I think the
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: Tar Heels are looking to, as I said, continue to
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: do some of the things that they have been doing.
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: And you mentioned a defensive battle. I do think one
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: thing Carolina would like to do is be a little
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: bit more explosive. And I think as you're playing these
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: better teams and you get into conference play and you
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: look at Carolina's schedule and it's Clemson, then it's Notre Dame,
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: and then I think they're at Pittsburgh. So, I mean,
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: there's some legit teams coming up for Carolina, and it's
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: coming pretty consistently. If you have a chance to hit
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: a 40-yard play, and it's hard to make it happen,
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: but if that chance is there, you've got to hit it.
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: And I feel like Carolina's missed some chances in the
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: first couple of weeks. to hit some of those balls
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: down the field. They still have been able to get
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: some big plays, but a lot of those are catch
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: and run. And so I think Carolina, as this year
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: goes on and this week is just the next opportunity,
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: is they've got to be able to loosen that defense
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: up a little bit. They've got to be able to
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: hit some of those shots because I think it's just
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: hard to consistently move the ball down the field six,
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: eight yards at a time, especially when you're getting into
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: playing some of the better teams like Carolina will be.
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: Jones, what's your assessment of Clemson overall as a program
• 6:40
  Speaker 3: and the reason you think they've fallen the way they
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: have the last couple seasons?
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a big question, and there's probably people who
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: cover Clemson closer than I do or know Clemson better
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: than I do that can more eloquently answer the question.
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: You know, I will say in just getting ready for Clemson,
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: you certainly do see a lot of guys who have
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: been in the program for multiple years. And so it's pretty–
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: I mean, and I know what the kind of thumbnail
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: thought on Dabo's thoughts on the transfer portal are, whether
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: those are 100% accurate or not. I know what that
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: perception is out there, although they do have plenty of transfers,
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: for example, in the secondary that are good players. for
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: Clemson this year. Um, you know, the one thing I
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: I'll be interested Clemson's opinion on kind of that quarterback position, because,
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: you know, they were going into this year with, uh,
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: Vassini and, uh, the true freshmen Reynolds. And at least
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: to my knowledge, didn't go after anybody else in the
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: transfer portal at that spot. And that's an interesting decision.
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: And so, um, you know, Dabo and I don't know
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: coach Sweeney very well. I don't know him at all,
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: really personally. Um, But he seems to be a very
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: loyal coach, somebody who believes in you, who wants to
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: grow his guys, who wants to get them better. And
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: so I wonder if that played a role in what
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: they decided to do at the quarterback spot. And that's
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: just such an important position. So Clemson still has a
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: ton of talent. They've got a great fan base. They've
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: got a ton of resources. And they've got a really
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: good coach. And normally, if you have all those things,
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: that equals to success. And so I would assume that
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: Clemson will get this thing figured out and moving back
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: to where they were. But one last thing. I know
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: it's been a long answer. The bar was high. I mean,
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: let's not forget. We're talking about a team that was
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: one of the two, three, four best teams in the
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: country for about seven or eight years straight. That's hard
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: to meet every single year. That doesn't mean you're not
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: trying to do it. But it is hard to meet.
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: And so I do think that that's worth remembering when
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: having this discussion as well.
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: And Dabo's the one that put that bar up there,
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: you know, and had it there. He does deserve credit
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: for that. All right, Jones, you got a fun one
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: to call on Death Valley on Saturday, man. I know
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: you're going to have a blast. I'd love to see
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: it be a big day for the Tar Heels. Thanks
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: for coming on. Appreciate you.
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: Thanks, guys. Always enjoy it.
• 8:59
  Speaker 4: Talk to you soon.
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: All right. There you go. That is Jones Angel, voice
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: of the Heels, 11 a.m. pregame, 12 noon game on
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: the Tar Heel Radio Network, which includes WBT. We had
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: a couple of people, Bone, that wanted questions about the
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: video involving Jones that went viral. Had nothing to do
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: with Jones. Jones was doing his coach's corner. Great questions.
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: How do you segue into that? I, like... They don't
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: teach that in broadcasting school. Amit tried to say, he
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: was a diehard Tar Heel fan, that Jones knows his
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: video with Coach Belichick went viral. Bring it up in...
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: What did he say? In a... What's he... How did
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: he phrase it? Bring it up in a tactful way
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: without bringing up his bosom. Yeah, and that's... How do
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: you bring that up? I don't know. Because I don't know, like.
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: I don't know if he wants to joke about the
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: head football coach of his program. Not someone that has
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: to work with him and tie it into him. I
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: don't think that's gonna so i kind of left it
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: out mac actually matured and did the right thing do
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: you think so how tough was that for you i
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: was hard to show restraint because i like wanted i
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: wanted to do it so bad but here's the thing
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: though doesn't mean we can't tell y'all about it if
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: you missed it so jones and belichick do the coach's
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: corner videos every week sponsored by sponsored by bojangles chicken
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: box sitting right there bone So anyway, UNC Tar Heels
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: account tweeted it out and the Internet quickly noticed. And
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: I'm looking at the responses and I mean, I almost
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: off my chair laughing. Some of these damn responses. Everybody
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: noticed that Bill Belichick appears to be very well endowed
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: in the bosom area. I mean, it is absurd. Almost
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: to the point, Bone, where I thought it was AI.
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: I thought somebody AI'd some man boobs on Belichick. So anyway,
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: it went viral. A lot of people made jokes about it.
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: And I'm sure Jones does, though. A lot of texters
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: making comments. We have some breaking news that involved the
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: Panthers during the last hour per Jordan Schultz. The Browns
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: are expected to sign former Panther wide receiver Jimmy Horn Jr.
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: He reunites with his college teammate Shador Sanders. Of course,
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: they play. Panthers and Browns play next week as well.
• 11:11
  Speaker 4: Oh, no.
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: Jimmy Horn revenge game.
• 11:12
  Speaker 3: Also, Deion Sanders yesterday on his coaching show was asked
• 11:15
  Speaker 3: about the Panthers– releasing jimmy horn jr and he said
• 11:21
  Speaker 3: i've already made some calls about that so now you
• 11:25
  Speaker 3: probably have to think that dion probably called the browns
• 11:27
  Speaker 3: and said are they listening to d i don't know
• 11:29
  Speaker 3: what probably dion the gm of the browns now that
• 11:33
  Speaker 3: that ought to solve things um by the way she
• 11:36
  Speaker 3: door not even the quarterback yet of the browns also
• 11:38
  Speaker 3: keep that he's the backup so what are they gonna
• 11:40
  Speaker 3: run with the twos together i don't know um listen
• 11:42
  Speaker 3: good for jimmy horn i thought they were going to
• 11:44
  Speaker 3: get him back here on the practice squad It's interesting
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: because it sounds like Dave, let's get that clip of
• 11:51
  Speaker 3: Canales talking about why they cut Horn.
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: It sounds like Dave thought they'd be able to get
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: him back. I don't know. I don't get the sense, Bone.
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: I sense that they needed that roster spot and they
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: needed to make sure that Tyrell Dodson, the linebacker that
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: they signed from Miami, does not go elsewhere and somebody
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: was ready to sign him away. So I almost feel
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: like they'd be willing to make that trade. Like we
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: got to keep Dodson and if it costs us Jimmy Horn,
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: so be it. But listen to Dave yesterday. And it's interesting, too,
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: because Mike Kay reported he cleared waivers. Which I thought
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: meant we're in the clear and he's going to end
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: up on the practice squad, but no dice. Listen to
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: Dave yesterday talk kind of about the Horn situation and
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: why they released him.
• 12:33
  Speaker 5: Yeah, the roster spot drove it. But certainly, you know,
• 12:36
  Speaker 5: for Jimmy and we had a great conversation. He and I, Dan,
• 12:39
  Speaker 5: talked about it. Wanted to make sure that he understood, like,
• 12:42
  Speaker 5: we see the progress that he's making.
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: We see the strides.
• 12:44
  Speaker 5: And right now, you know, with what the roster was doing,
• 12:47
  Speaker 5: I didn't want him to go in the tank and
• 12:49
  Speaker 5: be discouraged. We want him to come back. We want
• 12:50
  Speaker 5: him to be here on a practice squad because he
• 12:52
  Speaker 5: brings a lot to what we can do. And this
• 12:55
  Speaker 5: isn't the end of that story. You know, this is
• 12:56
  Speaker 5: just a part of it. And right now we have
• 12:59
  Speaker 5: to make the best decisions. I have to make those
• 13:01
  Speaker 5: hard decisions along with Dan to make sure we get
• 13:03
  Speaker 5: guys out there that we feel confident with. This is
• 13:06
  Speaker 5: an opportunity for John Meche to step up in a
• 13:08
  Speaker 5: role to see how he can help us. And then
• 13:10
  Speaker 5: on top of that, just having the other roster issues
• 13:14
  Speaker 5: with getting Tyrell.
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: So does this bother you, Bone? It definitely seems like
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: they thought they could slip him onto the practice squad.
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: And like we talked about in hour one, maybe we
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: could see him again sometime soon. Does this bother you,
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: the way they play this and that they lose him?
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: It doesn't bother me, but I do think that their
• 13:32
  Speaker 3: plan was, and I think they're going to try to
• 13:34
  Speaker 3: maneuver these offensive pieces at that wideout spot all around.
• 13:38
  Speaker 3: And the Browns already jumped on it. Maybe they didn't
• 13:40
  Speaker 3: consider Mack. The Browns and Shador Sanders as a team,
• 13:45
  Speaker 3: that may... Sign him right away?
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: I don't know.
• 13:48
  Speaker 3: I don't know how the whole thing operated, but certainly
• 13:51
  Speaker 3: I thought he was a guy that deserved to come back.
• 13:53
  Speaker 3: And we haven't seen enough of him yet to fully evaluate. Yes,
• 13:57
  Speaker 3: he had a rough game the other day, but I
• 13:59
  Speaker 3: don't think we're done with the full evaluation.
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: We're just a... a couple weeks removed from talking about
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: what can he do for the offense, a gadget guy,
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: a return man, and now after one game because of
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: your decision and his poor play, you lost him there.
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: I don't think that they thought they were going to
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: lose him to somebody else. Clearly not, and that's what
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: I'm saying. Do you all feel like, oh, this is
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: a mistake? Somebody says, Horn revenge game next week. We're
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: going to see how much we messed up. Here's the thing.
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: I don't want to treat Jimmy Hornbone like he's Jerry Wright.
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: You know what I mean? I don't want to overdo it.
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: And I also at the risk of sounding like I
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: have a personal vendetta against JT Sanders. Allow me to
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: say this again. I would have cut JT Sanders and
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: brought Tyrell Dodson onto the active roster. I would have
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: left Jimmy Horn here. I probably wouldn't have. I definitely
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: wouldn't have let him return kicks this week, but I
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: probably would have kept him because of what he showed
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: in the preseason. I thought there was improvement, thought there
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: was a jump. I do think he's a weapon that
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: can be used. So I probably wouldn't have gave up
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: on him. JT Sanders. I know y'all are tired of
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: hearing it. I've just seen it. I've seen it. He's
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: got the chance. We signed Darren Waller to do what
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: JT Sanders was drafted to do, and he really has
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: not done, which is red zone and downfield plays.
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: I've seen enough. So that's the move I would have
• 15:19
  Speaker 3: made personally. Fans are upset that he's going to give
• 15:21
  Speaker 3: intel to the Browns. That seems like what fans are
• 15:23
  Speaker 3: most upset about. That's another aspect that's not ideal. That's
• 15:26
  Speaker 3: a pretty good point. They're going to go, tell us
• 15:27
  Speaker 3: about that Panther defense, Jimmy.
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 15:30
  Speaker 3: He's going to say, well, you know, I don't really
• 15:32
  Speaker 3: know much about him. When we come back, Jess Charman
• 15:36
  Speaker 3: returns to the show. She'll talk about Charlotte FC and
• 15:39
  Speaker 3: wherever that discussion goes. Jess Charman of Apples next on
• 15:43
  Speaker 3: Sports Radio 92.7 WFNZ.
• 15:44
  Speaker 4: Well, Dale.
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: Just when I thought Bill Belichick's bosom making news, Boney,
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: was rough for Tar Heel fans to deal with, I
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: did not realize that the traffic situation with the players
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: involved C.J. Sadler. That kid is a true freshman baller
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: at wide receiver. Is it Keyon Chapman, Finney? Did they
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: say his name?
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 16:24
  Speaker 3: He was arrested for carrying a concealed handgun. and CJ
• 16:27
  Speaker 3: Sadler was cited for speeding during a traffic stop. Tuesday
• 16:31
  Speaker 3: night in Chapel Hill. Both are out for the Clemson game.
• 16:35
  Speaker 3: This is Sadler's third traffic incident since the beginning of August.
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: I was going to say, it has to be something,
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: because speeding alone is not going to get you.
• 16:42
  Speaker 3: No, it's his third once since the beginning of August.
• 16:43
  Speaker 3: A third something since August. Do you think a Georgia player...
• 16:45
  Speaker 3: I'm sorry, we sent the article. I didn't know you
• 16:47
  Speaker 3: didn't see it.
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: Did you think a Georgia player would get suspended for
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: three traffic violations? No, they'd be upgraded to team captain.
• 16:53
  Speaker 6: That's part of the scholarship requirements in Athens. You have
• 16:55
  Speaker 6: to get a traffic violation.
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: You need to get more NIL money there. Oh, man.
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: That's my bad on that, Mac. I thought you had
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: seen that news. Well, I probably should have. I got
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: to be honest. I just kind of didn't. I didn't
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: really think about it until right now. I didn't know
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: it involved somebody that important. Because they're dying for a
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: second wide receiver to step up. And I actually think
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: that's the kid that is most likely to do it.
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: And he had a good game last week. So that
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: is not good freaking news, man. Not good at all.
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: Real quick before I get to Jess. You had other
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: UNC news, Finney? During the break?
• 17:28
  Speaker 6: Yeah, defensive coordinator Steve Belichick has resigned from his position. Reminder,
• 17:34
  Speaker 6: he's been on medical leave since August the 6th. So
• 17:38
  Speaker 6: he's officially resigned as the D.C.
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: Well, and we know the questions that were being asked
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: from the WRAL report. By the way, Fitty, very happy
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: with WRAL again this morning. We know the questions that
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: were being asked about Steve Belichick, of the people that
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: they were witnesses, that they were in the investigation. They
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: were drug use by Steve Belichick and giving drugs to
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: a player, at least a player, if not more. Now
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: he resigns.
• 18:04
  Speaker 4: So.
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: My God, and that's your son, Bill Belichick. You talk
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: about lack of control. That's your son. Anyway, we've got
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: to control the show. We've got to get to Jessica Charman.
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: And this will lighten it up, by the way. Even
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: if you're a Tar Heel fan, you're going to laugh
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: because we're going to talk about Charlotte FC. We're going
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: to talk about the beautiful game of soccer. Jess has
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: the Charlotte FC-DC United game on Apple. on the road
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: on Saturday evening. But you know we're going to have
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: some laughs, too, because Jess is here. Jessica Charman joins
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: us on the Mac and Bone Show. Jess, what's going on?
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: What's happening?
• 18:38
  Speaker 4: I'm doing very well. You gave me a little bit
• 18:40
  Speaker 4: of a PTSD talking about traffic violations. I got a very,
• 18:44
  Speaker 4: very stupid one like three years ago. And what's crazy
• 18:49
  Speaker 4: in Georgia is they send you a video of you
• 18:52
  Speaker 4: in the mail doing said traffic violation. So you have
• 18:55
  Speaker 4: to scan a QR code and watch yourself make the mistake.
• 18:58
  Speaker 4: It is horrendous.
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: You got to like watch your film. Jess was just
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: coming out of a drive-thru by any chance.
• 19:06
  Speaker 4: I wish it was. Honestly, it would have probably been
• 19:08
  Speaker 4: less embarrassing. Look, I'll be completely honest. This is a
• 19:11
  Speaker 4: bad one. It was a school bus violation, but this
• 19:13
  Speaker 4: is what happened, right? I was five lanes. I was
• 19:16
  Speaker 4: five lanes away from said school bus. Five lanes. There
• 19:20
  Speaker 4: was no center console. And so I guess like five
• 19:23
  Speaker 4: of us probably got the tickets. But you scan the
• 19:25
  Speaker 4: QR code, you watch yourselves, and you're just like, Jess, stop. Jess, stop. No,
• 19:30
  Speaker 4: you haven't stopped. Yeah, it was bad.
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: I am mad.
• 19:33
  Speaker 4: I try not to drive between the hours of school buses.
• 19:37
  Speaker 4: They terrify me.
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: That could have been even worse, Jess. You could have
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: been driving on the other side of the road like
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: in England. At least you got the right side of
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: the road down pat.
• 19:46
  Speaker 4: Soccer. But my dad on a college campus at Clayton state,
• 19:50
  Speaker 4: once was driving on the wrong side of the road,
• 19:52
  Speaker 4: he got pulled over by Andy, tried to get out
• 19:55
  Speaker 4: of the car, tried to get out of the car
• 19:56
  Speaker 4: because in England you get out of the car. And
• 19:58
  Speaker 4: so we're back in the closet. It was terrifying. I'm
• 20:05
  Speaker 4: traumatized from that.
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: Oh, that's hilarious. And so that's interesting. In England, you
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: get out of the car. Yeah, that's a no-no here
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: because they don't know what.
• 20:13
  Speaker 4: People don't have weapons. We don't. Well, I mean, some
• 20:16
  Speaker 4: people do, but they're not meant to have weapons, if
• 20:18
  Speaker 4: you get what I mean. Like, you can't legally have
• 20:20
  Speaker 4: a gun here. So they're like, yeah, get out of
• 20:21
  Speaker 4: the car. So you're fine. Yeah.
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: Okay. Very interesting cultural differences. Poor fat Andy. Poor fat
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: Andy must have not had any idea what he was
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: getting screamed about. All right. Let's talk soccer. What do
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: you think about Charlotte FC right now? Seven unbeaten in
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: their last seven MLS games. I was a little bummed
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: just they didn't hold the lead against Cincinnati the other night,
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: but that's on the road. It's still, I'll take that point.
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: Cincinnati really needed that game. Like, I just, I don't know.
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: I feel good vibes with Charlotte right now. What do
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: you think?
• 20:57
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I feel good vibes too. I think it's really
• 20:59
  Speaker 4: funny when you look at the two road games in
• 21:01
  Speaker 4: a row, right, with Montreal and Cincinnati. Before that run,
• 21:05
  Speaker 4: if you'd have said Charlotte takes four points from two
• 21:07
  Speaker 4: road games, everyone would have been like, yeah, sounds great.
• 21:09
  Speaker 4: I'll take it. The issue was because of the way
• 21:12
  Speaker 4: that Cincinnati match played out and the lead and scoring
• 21:16
  Speaker 4: and showing resilience coming back after conceding early and then
• 21:19
  Speaker 4: being in the lead so late in the game. It
• 21:21
  Speaker 4: was one of those that felt a little bit like
• 21:23
  Speaker 4: Toronto away that I did with two goal leads. And
• 21:26
  Speaker 4: then you ended up in a 3-3 draw as well.
• 21:29
  Speaker 4: So if you're going to be picky, which I think
• 21:32
  Speaker 4: Charlotte fans have a right to be picky with the
• 21:34
  Speaker 4: standard that they're expecting from their squad now, you need
• 21:37
  Speaker 4: to turn that match into three points. But in the
• 21:39
  Speaker 4: same vein, a point still keeps you in and around
• 21:43
  Speaker 4: that chase for the top four, top three spots. I
• 21:47
  Speaker 4: have to say that it has to be top four
• 21:49
  Speaker 4: for Charlotte, right? This is eastern conference is wildly close
• 21:54
  Speaker 4: and you don't want to end up slipping into sixth
• 21:56
  Speaker 4: or seventh and ending up playing against a nashville or
• 22:00
  Speaker 4: into miami realistically in the play no.
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: Way and you want to have that home field although
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: i say that and knowing that we had it last
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: year They got to win. They got to advance in
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: the playoffs. Like I'm with you about four top four
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: and third is there. That's doable. But Chess, they've got
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: to advance in the playoffs, too. They got to make progress.
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: Like it's been great to be in the playoffs because
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: I don't want to take that for granted as a
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: Charlotte sports fan because it's not guaranteed. But don't they
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: have to advance, too?
• 22:30
  Speaker 4: I think that's what's so funny, right? Because obviously now
• 22:32
  Speaker 4: that I work with the league, I pull these numbers
• 22:34
  Speaker 4: for teams and there are teams that have missed playoffs
• 22:36
  Speaker 4: for five, six years straight, right? And Charlotte's only failed
• 22:40
  Speaker 4: to make postseason. I'll call it postseason because of the
• 22:42
  Speaker 4: first year in the play-in game, which people would say,
• 22:45
  Speaker 4: they haven't made playoffs. I mean, they're in the postseason,
• 22:47
  Speaker 4: it counts. They've only ever failed to make it one time.
• 22:50
  Speaker 4: So it has been successful in terms of being in
• 22:54
  Speaker 4: and around the mix of staying alive in the playoffs.
• 22:57
  Speaker 4: The issue is, True progress is progressing, right? And I'm
• 23:00
  Speaker 4: not saying that Charlotte needs to win an MLS Cup
• 23:03
  Speaker 4: in order to be successful this season. It will be
• 23:05
  Speaker 4: a dream come true and the city would really benefit
• 23:09
  Speaker 4: from it. But I do feel like you have to
• 23:12
  Speaker 4: advance in round one playoff I mean, an Eastern Conference
• 23:16
  Speaker 4: final even would be a success. But I do have
• 23:20
  Speaker 4: this opinion where, particularly with the strength of players that
• 23:23
  Speaker 4: are on this squad, with the fact that Dean now
• 23:25
  Speaker 4: has added the consistency, he's been in the managerial position
• 23:29
  Speaker 4: for longer than any other gaffer. It's like, what's next?
• 23:32
  Speaker 4: And I don't think making playoffs is enough right now
• 23:36
  Speaker 4: with the quality of roster and the results that this
• 23:38
  Speaker 4: team has had.
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 23:39
  Speaker 3: Jess, what have you thought of maxi? What he adds
• 23:42
  Speaker 3: to this team and compare and contrast a little bit,
• 23:45
  Speaker 3: this attack with maxi compared to what it looked like
• 23:48
  Speaker 3: with Zaha in there.
• 23:50
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I love him. I think that he's a sort
• 23:53
  Speaker 4: of player as a commentator. That is your dream because
• 23:56
  Speaker 4: he makes you excited. Naturally. Anytime he gets the ball,
• 23:59
  Speaker 4: you kind of shift up. You stand a little closer.
• 24:02
  Speaker 4: You try and, you know, put your head through that
• 24:04
  Speaker 4: glass because you know, something good is going to happen.
• 24:07
  Speaker 4: I think his attitude is brilliant. I enjoy watching him.
• 24:10
  Speaker 4: He seems like he... What's funny is, right, yesterday I
• 24:14
  Speaker 4: was looking back at old highlights of him and he
• 24:15
  Speaker 4: hasn't changed the way he plays. He gets the ball,
• 24:18
  Speaker 4: he shifts, he moves through players. There's something so energetic
• 24:21
  Speaker 4: about the way he dribbles with the ball. Where he's
• 24:23
  Speaker 4: different from Wilfred Zaha, as we saw it with Zaha,
• 24:26
  Speaker 4: is more of a goal scorer and assist bringer. Maxi
• 24:29
  Speaker 4: right now is showing that he cares more about setting
• 24:32
  Speaker 4: up other players. But the biggest thing for me is,
• 24:34
  Speaker 4: I think he's truly a team player. And that's not
• 24:36
  Speaker 4: to say Wilf wasn't a team player, but there were
• 24:39
  Speaker 4: times where Wilfred Zaha would have a choice to take
• 24:41
  Speaker 4: a shot or square and he would go for the shot.
• 24:43
  Speaker 4: I think we're seeing the reason that Max hasn't scored
• 24:45
  Speaker 4: yet is because Alan San Maxime is always looking to
• 24:48
  Speaker 4: make his teammates better. And we've talked a lot about
• 24:51
  Speaker 4: Leo Labada and his improvements. I think that Leo Labada
• 24:55
  Speaker 4: works really hard in the World Cup break and has
• 24:57
  Speaker 4: come back with a great attitude. But I don't think
• 24:59
  Speaker 4: it's a coincidence that Leo Labada looks so much better
• 25:02
  Speaker 4: when Alan San Maxime is on the pitch either.
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: Oh, yeah. You see Maxie cut inside and find Abada
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: over there on that other wing a bunch. And, yeah,
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: Abada's confident now. That's another reason why I feel good
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: about this team. And I have to tell you, I
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: was a Zaha defender, Jess. You know how polarizing he was, right?
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: And when a player is always, like, angry like that, right?
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: You're talking to Jess here. I'm sure she played that way.
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: Fans didn't like that. You know what I mean? That
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: negative stuff.
• 25:34
  Speaker 4: I think the issue with Zaha was at times it
• 25:37
  Speaker 4: took away from the game, right? There's one thing that
• 25:39
  Speaker 4: a player gets angry and look, I learn messy, right?
• 25:43
  Speaker 4: I know there are people that either love him or
• 25:44
  Speaker 4: hate him, but you know, those memes of Leo Messi,
• 25:47
  Speaker 4: when someone upset him in the world cup, like Drew Bellingham,
• 25:50
  Speaker 4: and then his eyes switched and he turned it into
• 25:52
  Speaker 4: a positive thing. Messi knew how to channel his anger.
• 25:55
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 25:56
  Speaker 4: Zaha always channeled his anger and frustration.
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: Good point.
• 25:59
  Speaker 4: There were examples where he did. I remember clear examples
• 26:03
  Speaker 4: where he was fouled and then he went and scored
• 26:05
  Speaker 4: on the team. But there were times where it felt
• 26:07
  Speaker 4: like that frustration took away from the team and unsettled
• 26:10
  Speaker 4: the team. I mean, Don't we still kind of agree
• 26:14
  Speaker 4: that the reason why Charlotte was struggling in that first
• 26:17
  Speaker 4: round of playoffs last year is because he was unavailable?
• 26:19
  Speaker 4: And I'm not saying that all went down on one way.
• 26:22
  Speaker 4: I didn't make Charlotte lose in the playoffs in a
• 26:23
  Speaker 4: round of three, but it didn't help.
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: No, that hurt.
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: That hurt. And you don't get Maxie. You just sense
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: it's all, you know, positive vibes. And my God, he's
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: electric and his passing range, Jess. I didn't know the
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: passing range was that good. He's special. What about a headband?
• 26:39
  Speaker 4: Would you wear a Gucci or Louis Vuitton headband if
• 26:42
  Speaker 4: you could afford one?
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: If I could afford one? Jess knows what we make
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: around here.
• 26:48
  Speaker 4: I know I can't afford one.
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: It works for him. I feel like I would look goofy, Bone.
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: First of all, I'd look goofy playing any sport at
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: this point at 52. But if I tried to rock
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: the headband, I'm not sure it's working. But it works
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: for him, man.
• 27:02
  Speaker 3: Jess, I went through a soccer playing headband phase when
• 27:06
  Speaker 3: I was younger. I looked like Elmer Fudd wearing a
• 27:09
  Speaker 3: headband playing fullback.
• 27:11
  Speaker 4: Were they the thick ones that had like the sweat, like,
• 27:14
  Speaker 4: you know, like a proper sweat headband too? Because I
• 27:17
  Speaker 4: remember trying one of those. I'm like a tomato when
• 27:20
  Speaker 4: I exercise.
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: A tomato?
• 27:22
  Speaker 4: A what?
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: I could be in the best shape.
• 27:25
  Speaker 4: A tomato, a tomato. I could be in the best
• 27:27
  Speaker 4: place of my life. And people, people would still be like,
• 27:31
  Speaker 4: it's so bad. People like Jesse, you're okay. I'm like, yeah,
• 27:34
  Speaker 4: I'm just, you know, I've just been running, but I'm okay.
• 27:37
  Speaker 4: Don't worry about it. People literally think I was going
• 27:39
  Speaker 4: to collapse.
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: You get red face. That's the way my wife is.
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: Like when she, like she gets, and she's passed it
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: on to our kids. Leah, that's a, that's hilarious. So
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: y'all go tomato. Y'all go tomato in England.
• 27:53
  Speaker 4: Yeah, tomato. I then think potato. We say potato, but
• 27:57
  Speaker 4: it's tomato.
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, all right. You don't go potato?
• 28:01
  Speaker 4: Can you imagine? I would like some of those crispy potatoes.
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: That does sound a little bit highfalutin there. Jess, before
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: we let you go, I do need to ask, are
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: there no games in Canada this week? How did you
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: get the assignment in D.C.? Because I have to be honest,
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: whether it's Charlotte, the Montreal game, or whether it's like
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: I'm flipping around on Apple and it's another game, it's
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: in Canada. You, they send you to cat. You have,
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: why are you the designated Canada announcer?
• 28:32
  Speaker 4: It feels like, yeah, I, I have, you want to
• 28:36
  Speaker 4: know it's fun. I do have one more Montreal game
• 28:38
  Speaker 4: this season. It's going to be with Lloyd. I'm going
• 28:41
  Speaker 4: to get to commentate again with Lloyd Sam in October.
• 28:44
  Speaker 4: But no, that's it. I believe I'm done with Canadian assignments.
• 28:48
  Speaker 4: Maybe they put me in D.C. back to back weeks
• 28:50
  Speaker 4: because they know maybe my citizenship exam might finally be scheduled.
• 28:53
  Speaker 4: So I'm walking around and doing some research for my
• 28:56
  Speaker 4: test while I'm there. I'm like, oh, that's the monument.
• 29:00
  Speaker 4: Did you know museums in D.C. are free because of
• 29:02
  Speaker 4: the taxes as well? So you just walk in and
• 29:04
  Speaker 4: you're like, I'm trying to learn about the U.S. and
• 29:07
  Speaker 4: be very patriotic while I'm over there.
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: You keep going to Canada, you might get dual citizenship there.
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: There you go. I'm going to have triple.
• 29:14
  Speaker 4: I'm going to have three passports at this rate, right?
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: There you go. There you go. All right, Jess, good
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: catching up with you. We love you, Jess. Look forward
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: to hearing you on Saturday night. Thanks for coming on, Jess.
• 29:23
  Speaker 4: Anytime, boys. Have a good rest of your show.
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: All right, there you go. That is Jessica Charman, former
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: analyst for the Charlotte FC Radio Network with the P-Man,
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: now calling play-by-play for the MLS on Apple Charlotte FC,
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: 7.30 at D.C. United. P-Man and Anna will have the
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: call here on WFNZ with their pregame at 7. People
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: are asking Finney so many questions about UNC. Like it's
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: Fiddy's job bone to control the football program. That is,
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: I got to tell you, Fiddy, that sucks. It's two
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: stories in like 12 hours. When you have all this
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: optimism about, hey, we got a chance to go into
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: Death Valley and beat Clemson, you can't get away from
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: this stuff. Now you got the two players with the
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: traffic situation, and now they're suspended. Now you got Steve
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: Belichick resigning like, man, Fiddy, you need a hug this morning.
• 30:14
  Speaker 3: Dexter says those players are acting like boobs.
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: That's a reference I think. Oh, I see what you
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: did there.
• 30:19
  Speaker 6: It does feel like, Mac, for a program that's positioning itself,
• 30:24
  Speaker 6: I think, to jump to the SEC, we're acting like
• 30:26
  Speaker 6: an SEC program.
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you'll fit in perfectly there, man.
• 30:29
  Speaker 6: I mean, we got players getting tickets, carrying concealed weapons,
• 30:32
  Speaker 6: coaching drama. All we got to do is just get
• 30:35
  Speaker 6: the winning, and then we'll be right in there with
• 30:36
  Speaker 6: some of the SEC schools.
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: 20-30 is coming, Finney. Just that pesky winning component. All right, Finney,
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: give us a quick update here. Do you have anything
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: in the news that doesn't involve negative news for the
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: Tar Heel football program? What do you got?
• 31:03
  Speaker 2: Finney.
• 31:06
  Speaker 6: All right, guys, this update brought to you by Bet365.

  Speaker 6: You must be 21 plus, and you must be physically

  Speaker 6: located in North Carolina.
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: Mac, I don't really have anything.
• 31:36
  Speaker 6: I was going to do the whole Belichick thing again
• 31:38
  Speaker 6: right here.
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: I have some here. You stole my thunder. So what
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: you got, Bones?
• 31:41
  Speaker 3: It's kind of random, but I think it's worth noting.
• 31:43
  Speaker 3: We need to give a shout-out back to Miami Marlins' A.
• 31:47
  Speaker 3: Sandy Alcantara for what he did last. I don't know
• 31:50
  Speaker 3: if you guys saw this or not.
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: What's that? That's a good call. He likes it. He approves.
• 31:54
  Speaker 3: He, Mac, threw 100 pitches two days ago, before yesterday.
• 31:59
  Speaker 3: Came in last night because the Marlins had faint wildcard hopes.
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: Out of the bullpen to get the save last night.
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: 100 pitches on Monday.
• 32:09
  Speaker 3: Came into the game on wednesday as the ace who's
• 32:12
  Speaker 3: had major arm problems before to get the save to
• 32:15
  Speaker 3: try to keep their hopes alive they're like seven out
• 32:18
  Speaker 3: of the wild card or whatever it is right now
• 32:20
  Speaker 3: but that's a pretty big that's a pretty uh big
• 32:23
  Speaker 3: teammate move there by uh.
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: That's some damn college baseball tournament stuff man right there
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: you don't see many aces that are willing to do
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: that that's pretty cool does anybody call him al contraband
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: no I feel like that would be a good nickname.
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: That's your takeaway from that whole thing? Yeah, kind of.
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: My also takeaway is I'm slightly concerned about the control
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: that Bill Belichick might have over the Tar Heels football
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: program off the field. Slightly feel like he doesn't have possession.
• 32:51
  Speaker 3: And it feels like things have been better lately, but
• 32:54
  Speaker 3: then you look at it, they've had two guys resign.
• 32:57
  Speaker 3: And players get suspended for. So it feels like things
• 33:00
  Speaker 3: are getting better. It feels like it feels like Jordan
• 33:03
  Speaker 3: has been quieter, but there's still problems going on. Although
• 33:06
  Speaker 3: there was some Wall Street Journal stuff going on.
• 33:09
  Speaker 4: I guess.
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: How about Boo Belichick standing up for his? That's what
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: a texter called him. How about Bill Belichick standing up?
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: For Jordan defending his young lady's honor bone to Wall
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: Street Journal, saying that everybody was liars the way they
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: were acting, like she was like, you know, doing things
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: for the football program. He said she only did stuff
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: for me personally in the book tour and stuff like that.
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: But here's the thing, though. What was up with her
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: and the freedom of information requests on all the people
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: in the athletic department? I don't know. That she's trying
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: to find out what they're up to in their emails.
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: What's that all about, Bill? When we come back, it's
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: the wrap-up. We got an ACC game tonight and a
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: big NFL game to get you ready for. Mac Boat, 50,
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: Sports Radio, 92.7 WFNZ. Personally, I think all that is
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: for the media.
• 34:19
  Speaker 5: I mean, I think the media has this expectation that
• 34:22
  Speaker 5: I'm supposed to throw 400 goals and five touchdowns every week.
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: So until that happens, I guess it's going to be
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: the same situation. So again, my job is to make
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: sure I'm operating well so we can try to get
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: a win and keep moving forward from that. That is
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson. Now he is apparently about to be Jimmy
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: Horn's new teammate. Sounds like Jimmy Horn Jr. is going
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: to be signed by the Browns. Jordan Schultz, you know,
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: was the first one that I saw reporting that. So Deshaun, Deshaun.
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: You exaggerating a little bit there. I realize the media
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: and the fans are all over you and they have
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: good reason to do so. Who the heck bone is
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: out there asking for him to put up 400 yards
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: passing and five touchdowns every week or any week? How
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: about you get to about a buck 60 and two?
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: I mean, are you kidding me?
• 35:10
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't I don't really think that was a
• 35:12
  Speaker 3: serious take there by Deshaun Watson.
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: A bunch of BS, a bunch of malarkey. They want
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: you to throw for 400 yards on the season. What
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: do you think? Because I saw somebody on Twitter, Panthers Twitter, say,
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: oh yeah, Jimmy Horn's there. We're definitely getting Shador next week.
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: Next week is the Browns home opener. When they last
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: played at home, I mean, it got ugly from the
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: fan store. Deshaun, he said some things about them in
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: the press conference. Do you think, Bone, he plays Tampa
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: this week on the road. Do you think Deshaun is
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: still the starter next week? I mean, I know we
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: got this crap, a crappy group of quarterbacks in Atlanta.
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: We got to deal with first, but do you think
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: it's Deshaun or Shador?
• 35:51
  Speaker 4: I guess.
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: I think, I think it's Shador.
• 35:54
  Speaker 3: I think the Browns are going to get way late
• 35:56
  Speaker 3: again on the road against Tampa. I think part of
• 35:59
  Speaker 3: their plan was they don't want Watson to start at home.
• 36:02
  Speaker 3: They'll want Shador at home. So I would guess unless
• 36:06
  Speaker 3: a miracle happens in Deshaun Watson, you know, beats Tampa,
• 36:09
  Speaker 3: which I don't think is going to happen. I think
• 36:11
  Speaker 3: Shador will be the, the quarterback against the Panthers.
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: I would say this. If he throws for 405 TDs,
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: I think he'll start against the Panthers. I do believe so. Dr.
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: Suave says, Watson is so annoying. Why is he an
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: ass to the media? It's his own fault. He does
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: have this persecution complex where he kind of is woe
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: is me about this stuff, and it's just you have
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: brought on so much of this, man. Matt, you brought
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: on all of it, actually. Let me just say that.
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: He never makes it better either. No, he does not.
• 36:39
  Speaker 3: He always seems to say the right... I mean, outside of...
• 36:42
  Speaker 3: his previous behavior that caused all this. He always seems
• 36:44
  Speaker 3: to still now never say the right thing. And it's
• 36:47
  Speaker 3: a crazy fall from great smack. Cause you never heard
• 36:50
  Speaker 3: a bad thing about the guy at Clemson from where
• 36:53
  Speaker 3: he is now, from where he was 10 years ago,
• 36:55
  Speaker 3: I would have never thought that he'd go down this path.
• 36:57
  Speaker 3: And who the hell are his PR team? Who are
• 36:59
  Speaker 3: his PR mentors? They're worse than Arch Manning's PR team.
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: Oh man. I have you seen the commercial where Cooper, uh,
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: Cooper Manning, Arch's dad, uh, is like, like coaching him
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: up and they're watching Phil. Have you seen that commercial?
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: I probably have, but I can't remember. I watched it
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: yesterday and I'm like, they need to do another one
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: where they're reviewing the press conference and Cooper is telling Arch.
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: Oh no, you can't say that. You just can't laugh
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: at poor Holly Roe getting smacked on an AI event.
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: Come on. Rewind that. Let's watch that again. Oh, man. Anyway,
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: all right. If he's misbehaving like that, he'll be at
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: Cleveland Brown before we know it. All right. Keep the
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: text coming, y'all.
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: 704-570-9610.
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: Kyle in Mount Ali says the Browns. We'll start Drew
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: Brees in quarterback next week. Sean Payton don't know anything
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: about it. Whatever happens, he doesn't know anything about it.
• 37:50
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: Let's see what we have here on the text line.
• 37:54
  Speaker 2: 704-5709-610.
• 37:55
  Speaker 1: WFC text line is powered by affordable siding and windows.
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: Your hometown improvement experts also want to shout out. Harris,
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: Cherokee Casino and Resorts. They're the official sponsor of our
• 38:08
  Speaker 1: Uptown Studios. We just got word bone that the Friday
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: of October 16th, we will be broadcasting live. It's all
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: the shows are making the trip to do shows from
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: the KB raves about this place. I can't wait to
• 38:22
  Speaker 1: see it. But we're going to make that trip to Harrah's, baby.
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: That'll be my birthday weekend also.
• 38:27
  Speaker 6: Nice.
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: Look at that, Boney. Will you let me have your
• 38:29
  Speaker 1: seven cents and maybe play a slot machine? I may
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: bet 14 cents. I may go all in. By the way,
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: having me with the sports book up there, just send
• 38:37
  Speaker 1: me loose. Get loose, baby. This is like putting Tiger
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: Woods out of Perkins. The only worry I have, Tiger
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: Woods out of Perkins, the only concern I have is
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: that you might put our sponsor out of business. I
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: don't want to see that. You know what I mean?
• 38:49
  Speaker 4: No, no, no.
• 38:49
  Speaker 3: By the way, I told Tara a few months ago,
• 38:53
  Speaker 3: I said, don't worry. When football season rolls around, Big
• 38:57
  Speaker 3: Boney will win enough football money and bets to buy
• 39:00
  Speaker 3: you a new pair of shoes.
• 39:01
  Speaker 1: Oh, mama needs a new pair of shoes. We are
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: now multiple weeks into the season, Matt. She asked, hey,
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: do you have that shoe money yet? I had to explain,
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: you got to give me a few more weeks here.
• 39:10
  Speaker 1: It's not going well yet. Oh, crap. If my wife's
• 39:13
  Speaker 1: shoe purchases depended on my betting, she'd walk around barefoot daily.
• 39:17
  Speaker 3: Those promises, Max, sound so much better in the summertime
• 39:20
  Speaker 3: until it actually rolls around again and you realize, oh,
• 39:23
  Speaker 3: you don't automatically get money because it's football season.
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: You actually have to be smart and not a dodo
• 39:28
  Speaker 1: bird and win the bet. Come on, Boney. You're going
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: to turn it around. I got faith in you. No,
• 39:32
  Speaker 1: I've done actually pretty good with that. I do pretty well,
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: but then I end up betting more and losing it again.
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: Need to mention Thursday night football tonight. Bill's host in Detroit.
• 39:40
  Speaker 1: We get to scout our week four opponent, the Lions,
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: and ACC action on ESPN, Syracuse, and Pitt. Multiple texters
• 39:47
  Speaker 1: have said, Bone, the name should be Bill Bubicek. Should
• 39:52
  Speaker 1: be the name. Or Bill Bubicek. Should be the name.
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: Poor Bill, man. Sweet Cheek says it is a deceiving photo.
• 39:59
  Speaker 1: She says she believes that Bill is wearing a weight trainer.
• 40:04
  Speaker 1: So it pushes the bosom up and it's misleading. She
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: would like to tell us that. I guess she would
• 40:12
  Speaker 1: know boobs better than us.
• 40:14
  Speaker 6: And Mac, you want me to victory dance in one
• 40:16
  Speaker 6: of these things?
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Bone was looking up the waist trainers on men.
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: It's like man spanks. It looks like it is. It
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: looks like men's lingerie. Could we get Fitty doing a
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: victory dance in that? How do you move your body
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: in that thing? I guess we'll find out. Is that
• 40:33
  Speaker 1: a challenge? Fitty is accepting that challenge. Can you do
• 40:37
  Speaker 1: that embarrassing stuff now that you have a lady in
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: your life? Think I'm going to quit being me? That's true, though.
• 40:43
  Speaker 1: That's a good point. Like, who am I to say that?
• 40:46
  Speaker 1: I've been married for 20 years. Have I stopped embarrassing
• 40:48
  Speaker 1: myself and the entire McLean family?
• 40:49
  Speaker 2: No.
• 40:50
  Speaker 1: Hell no. Do your thing, Fit.
• 40:52
  Speaker 4: I am.
• 40:52
  Speaker 1: And she'll love you for you. Probably not. Oh, my goodness.
• 40:59
  Speaker 4: All right.
• 40:59
  Speaker 1: We're out of here. Willie P's angry at the people
• 41:01
  Speaker 1: that are upset that Jimmy Horn got away to Cleveland.
• 41:06
  Speaker 1: He says, do people think that we released Devin Hester? No,
• 41:10
  Speaker 1: we cut Jimmy Horn. The P man is.
• 41:14
  Speaker 1: That's kind of, I don't know about that one. It's
• 41:15
  Speaker 1: like a dad joke. Bone, you done with us today, Boney? Huh?
• 41:20
  Speaker 1: You done? Bone's done with us. I was told that
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: we're done at 54, so that's when I end the show.
• 41:24
  Speaker 1: I do notice you do check out. All right, we're
• 41:26
  Speaker 1: out of here, y'all.
• 41:27
  Speaker 3: I check out, and we check my notes here when
• 41:29
  Speaker 3: we're supposed to check out.
• 41:30
  Speaker 1: I don't. Let me check my notes here. Listen, you're
• 41:33
  Speaker 1: getting all sassy molassy over there. Set yourself down. Oh,
• 41:35
  Speaker 1: you're a sweet, sassy molassy. Come on now. You're a molassy.
• 41:38
  Speaker 1: I'm not a molassy. See, it's what you do. We're going,
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: and now you're arguing. Don't get your waist trainer in
• 41:42
  Speaker 1: a bunch over there, Haas. Oh, calm your Belichick boobs down.
• 41:46
  Speaker 1: We're out of here, y'all. We'll talk to y'all tomorrow.
• 41:49
  Speaker 1: Good work out of the bone, man. The fit dog.
• 41:52
  Speaker 1: We'll talk to y'all tomorrow. Colin Hager coming up next.
