Transcript
- 0:07Speaker 1: Allow me to reintroduce myself, my name is.
- 0:10Speaker 2: I'm Will Palagic.
- 0:14Speaker 3: I was frustrated throughout the game. Listen, I usually don't
- 0:19Speaker 3: overstep the mark. And I don't think I did on Saturday,
- 0:22Speaker 3: which was frustrating. I think it started from when he
- 0:27Speaker 3: disrespected Tim.
- 0:28Speaker 1: He was.
- 0:30Speaker 3: Listen, I don't mind bad referees, but the arrogance is
- 0:33Speaker 3: what really frustrates me. But these things happen. I'm usually good,
- 0:38Speaker 3: like I said, but I need to learn how to
- 0:40Speaker 3: do it in a different way. I've let the team down.
- 0:43Speaker 3: I think it's a game we could have probably won
- 0:45Speaker 3: if we'd have had 11 men on the pitch. But
- 0:48Speaker 3: the boys did unbelievable to see the game out. It's
- 0:51Speaker 3: going to be a tough test in Montreal. I think
- 0:53Speaker 3: it might be two games, so hopefully it's one.
- 0:55Speaker 4: And Westy knew. Westy knew because we have since heard Bone.
- 0:59Speaker 4: That's Ashley Westwood, captain of your Charlotte FC squad. Big
- 1:02Speaker 4: game tonight for them in Montreal. And then a real
- 1:05Speaker 4: big one against Cincinnati on the road on Saturday. And
- 1:09Speaker 4: it is now known, Bone, that Westy will not be
- 1:12Speaker 4: able to play in either game. It was a double
- 1:13Speaker 4: whammy situation. When he gets the red card for the
- 1:17Speaker 4: two yellows, the red card, that means you're going to
- 1:19Speaker 4: miss the next match. And it also, Bone, was yellow
- 1:21Speaker 4: card accumulation. Two, where you got enough yellow cards to
- 1:25Speaker 4: miss a match. So it's a two-match ban. The good news, though, Bone,
- 1:28Speaker 4: is this man is not suspended. This man will be
- 1:32Speaker 4: on the call for both those matches.
- 1:35Speaker 2: Willie P.
- 1:35Speaker 4: voice of Charlotte FC, and all-around weapon for the Mac and,
- 1:41Speaker 4: for not the Mac and Bone show, for WFNZ. He
- 1:44Speaker 4: is Willie P., Will Pelagic. P-Man, what's going on?
- 1:49Speaker 1: I'm surprised I didn't get a yellow the way Guido
- 1:51Speaker 1: Gonzalez was handing them out.
- 1:53Speaker 2: He was like Oprah and Cars the other night. Oh,
- 1:57Speaker 2: that's well played. What did you think?
- 2:00Speaker 5: We have the Missouri fight song playing for you right
- 2:02Speaker 5: here as a sign of respect for Missouri-Kansas week.
- 2:05Speaker 2: That's pretty nice of you. That's all we can do
- 2:07Speaker 2: for you here.
- 2:07Speaker 6: On the show.
- 2:10Speaker 1: Now you're playing the Kansas fight songs that you're playing.
- 2:12Speaker 2: Ah! You dirty dog No, Finny, what did we do?
- 2:17Speaker 2: You dirty dog All I.
- 2:19Speaker 6: Typed in was Missouri's Daddy's Music And this is what
- 2:24Speaker 6: they gave me Not during.
- 2:25Speaker 4: Hate week I'm sorry, Willie I want you to know
- 2:30Speaker 4: there's one person Not involved in this right now And
- 2:32Speaker 4: it is me I just want you to want you
- 2:35Speaker 4: to know that.
- 2:36Speaker 1: Did we, did we, did we do a full hour
- 2:39Speaker 1: on Shelton Alcaraz last night or did we limit it
- 2:42Speaker 1: to an hour? I mean, how long, how long did
- 2:44Speaker 1: we talk about that? US open match that started at
- 2:46Speaker 1: 11 o'clock.
- 2:47Speaker 4: Luckily zero seconds until you start. Actually, I think I
- 2:50Speaker 4: did mention it in the open. Damn thing ended at
- 2:52Speaker 4: three 30 in the morning. All right, P man. Um, uh,
- 2:55Speaker 4: Fitty bringing her for my friend here. Fitty bringing the
- 2:57Speaker 4: bad vibes bone acting like he's shocked. It was the
- 2:59Speaker 4: Kansas fight song with some really bad acting.
- 3:01Speaker 1: Um, Um, sorry, my head coach dates, eight appropriate women.
- 3:05Speaker 1: That's okay.
- 3:08Speaker 2: All right.
- 3:09Speaker 1: Sorry that our defensive coordinator is not handing out cocaine
- 3:12Speaker 1: to his players.
- 3:13Speaker 2: Hold on now. That is slander.
- 3:15Speaker 6: All of that is alleged to be investigated. Can your
- 3:18Speaker 6: head coach beat TCU? Because mine can.
- 3:23Speaker 1: My recruiting staff is not sleeping with players either.
- 3:25Speaker 2: Hold on.
- 3:26Speaker 4: It is being investigated. We are being investigated right now. Oh,
- 3:30Speaker 4: my goodness. All right, Pete. Oh, my gosh. Now we're
- 3:34Speaker 4: showing him a yellow card. Yellow card to the P-man.
- 3:38Speaker 4: You got a yellow for the music.
- 3:39Speaker 1: Are you going to be in that three or four
- 3:42Speaker 1: win category?
- 3:44Speaker 2: Oh, my gosh.
- 3:45Speaker 6: Mack, if you picked us to win the ACC, did
- 3:46Speaker 6: you not watch college game day on Saturday?
- 3:48Speaker 2: We're going to the playoff.
- 3:50Speaker 4: Oh, man. Holy crap. All right, P-Man, let's talk about
- 3:53Speaker 4: the Westie situation. Like, I mean, that is a fast.
- 3:59Speaker 4: double yellow. I mean, you know, for descent, it's ridiculously fast.
- 4:04Speaker 4: Did he say something that he shouldn't have? Like, what,
- 4:06Speaker 4: what do you think of, of him getting two yellows
- 4:08Speaker 4: there and the red and you know, how badly do
- 4:12Speaker 4: they miss them? What's, what's the solution without him?
- 4:16Speaker 1: Well, he told me what he said. I'm not going
- 4:18Speaker 1: to repeat it because I want to, you know, don't
- 4:20Speaker 1: want to trade with his confidence there, but I can
- 4:23Speaker 1: tell you right now, What he told me he said,
- 4:26Speaker 1: or at least what it was written in the report
- 4:27Speaker 1: is what he said. It was a very quick trigger
- 4:30Speaker 1: for a second yellow card. And I think, again, multiple
- 4:34Speaker 1: things can be true at the same time. It was
- 4:36Speaker 1: a quick trigger for a yellow. Westy had every right
- 4:38Speaker 1: to be angry because he got forearm shivered by Ibrahim Alehu.
- 4:43Speaker 1: And anytime there's a shot to the face, usually they
- 4:45Speaker 1: stop the contest. But I also think, too, when he
- 4:48Speaker 1: knows that the referee's got a short fuse, he probably
- 4:51Speaker 1: would have been better served at the step-off. He knew
- 4:53Speaker 1: that he was already going to miss the next game
- 4:55Speaker 1: because of yellow card accumulation. But missing the second game,
- 4:57Speaker 1: I think, is where it's most punitive because it's not
- 5:00Speaker 1: a game, it's a big contest. a game that is
- 5:03Speaker 1: going to be right up against a team that is
- 5:04Speaker 1: right near you with a table could be a six pointer,
- 5:07Speaker 1: as they say in the, in the soccer final. And
- 5:09Speaker 1: so it is one of those things where it's a
- 5:12Speaker 1: very punitive loss for Charlotte FC. I don't think, I
- 5:16Speaker 1: don't think they need Ashley Westwood to beat CF Montreal,
- 5:19Speaker 1: who was very bad. I mean, very bad, even though
- 5:22Speaker 1: we've had our problems with Montreal in the past, but,
- 5:24Speaker 1: but basically for that Saturday game is, is very, is very,
- 5:28Speaker 1: very difficult, but you know, judging by the way we
- 5:30Speaker 1: talked to him on Monday, He seemed equal parts contrite,
- 5:34Speaker 1: but also equal parts self-assured. And I think it's everybody's
- 5:37Speaker 1: opinion that the referee was very much out of line
- 5:39Speaker 1: on Saturday night.
- 5:40Speaker 5: Willie, is it a proof of how quickly that happened?
- 5:42Speaker 5: Because Westie got those so quickly that even the teammates
- 5:46Speaker 5: couldn't get him away after the first one, right? Usually
- 5:49Speaker 5: teammates will come in and try to get him away,
- 5:51Speaker 5: and this time they didn't have time to react to it.
- 5:54Speaker 1: I think basically after the second one, it's almost like
- 5:57Speaker 1: a manager getting tossed in a baseball game. You want
- 5:59Speaker 1: to feel like you got your money's worth. But I'll
- 6:01Speaker 1: go back to what Dean and Tim Rehm both said
- 6:03Speaker 1: after the game. The referee showed himself when he didn't
- 6:06Speaker 1: even shake the hand of the referee or the captain
- 6:08Speaker 1: after the game. And that's something that's Pretty much a
- 6:12Speaker 1: common courtesy, even after games that don't end your way
- 6:15Speaker 1: or don't end where you have certain discussions and whatnot.
- 6:19Speaker 1: That's something that was pretty evident in terms of how
- 6:22Speaker 1: he acted after the game. And he's a referee that,
- 6:24Speaker 1: quite frankly, has seen really no ire when it comes
- 6:29Speaker 1: to Charlotte FC. It's a referee we've had the most.
- 6:31Speaker 1: Guido Gonzalez Jr., we've gotten eight victories when he's been
- 6:34Speaker 1: our referee. And yet now it seems like Charlotte FC
- 6:37Speaker 1: fans have every reason to dislike him now.
- 6:40Speaker 4: It's it's unheard of for a ref not to be like,
- 6:43Speaker 4: you'll see some, some nasty situations with refs and players
- 6:47Speaker 4: during games, but to not, you know, shake the hand afterwards,
- 6:52Speaker 4: be professional enough to do that of the coach and
- 6:53Speaker 4: the captain.
- 6:54Speaker 2: That's, that's absurd. It really is, man.
- 6:57Speaker 4: And by the way, how about the, how about MLS
- 7:00Speaker 4: actually discipline a guy?
- 7:02Speaker 2: You know what I mean? Like, that's unprofessional. Do they
- 7:04Speaker 2: ever discipline refs?
- 7:05Speaker 4: I feel like all sports leagues, P, are very slow
- 7:08Speaker 4: to discipline their officials when they don't do the right thing.
- 7:13Speaker 1: You really, really don't want to hear my opinion about
- 7:16Speaker 1: MLS officiating today.
- 7:17Speaker 2: You really, really don't. P going to get fined.
- 7:19Speaker 1: I like my money, guys.
- 7:21Speaker 2: I like my money. P's here so he don't get fined, Bo.
- 7:27Speaker 2: oh man i will.
- 7:29Speaker 1: I will say i uh i very much agree with
- 7:32Speaker 1: the way that you uh assessed it okay okay we'll.
- 7:34Speaker 2: Take that we'll take that we just got coached me
- 7:36Speaker 2: from willie.
- 7:37Speaker 4: A texter wants to know willie can you tell us
- 7:40Speaker 4: if what westy said to the ref is something you
- 7:42Speaker 4: could get away with saying on the radio or not
- 7:45Speaker 4: no oh you couldn't.
- 7:48Speaker 5: Okay okay did it involve a mother by any chance.
- 7:53Speaker 1: No.
- 7:55Speaker 4: Can we play 20 questions and see if we've come
- 7:57Speaker 4: up with it at the end? All right, anyway, let's
- 7:59Speaker 4: move along. Let's leave it alone.
- 8:00Speaker 2: Leave it alone, Westy.
- 8:01Speaker 4: Westy's going to be drinking a couple of cold ones
- 8:04Speaker 4: watching these next two games, unfortunately. P-Man, what's your feeling
- 8:08Speaker 4: about the Panthers-Bears opener? What's your gut feeling about this?
- 8:16Speaker 1: I I'm cautiously optimistic because I think the Panthers will
- 8:20Speaker 1: be able to move the football, the bears defense. You know,
- 8:23Speaker 1: my question is whether or not the defense will look
- 8:25Speaker 1: like it had taken the step that we think.
- 8:27Speaker 2: That they had.
- 8:28Speaker 1: And I think that's kind of the, the situation with the,
- 8:31Speaker 1: you know, the new linebacker O'Kara keep being brought in,
- 8:34Speaker 1: whether or not the punitive losses, it feels on the
- 8:37Speaker 1: interior defensive line for the Panthers and, and whether or
- 8:41Speaker 1: not this, this offense is, has a better start than
- 8:45Speaker 1: really we've seen over the course of the last two
- 8:47Speaker 1: or three years. I think that there are a lot
- 8:49Speaker 1: of things to at least look at and say that
- 8:52Speaker 1: discouraged us during the Panther preseason, but I think there
- 8:55Speaker 1: were also moments that they showed, and I think the
- 8:58Speaker 1: receiver group is better. I think they'll be able to
- 9:01Speaker 1: run the football, provided that everybody's healthy and able to
- 9:03Speaker 1: be on there, and I think we're hoping the best
- 9:05Speaker 1: for Jonathan Brooks and hoping that he's able to at
- 9:07Speaker 1: least get himself 100% healthy. But I think it's one
- 9:11Speaker 1: of those things where if you are looking at this
- 9:13Speaker 1: from the standpoint of where Carolina is, I think you'd
- 9:16Speaker 1: say it's probably about even. I think that there are
- 9:18Speaker 1: advantages that the Bears have in the contest. There are
- 9:20Speaker 1: advantages the Panthers have in the contest. Hopefully it comes
- 9:22Speaker 1: down to home field and the Panthers win. But we
- 9:24Speaker 1: know that unfortunately their ability to start seasons has not
- 9:27Speaker 1: necessarily been the best over the course of the last
- 9:29Speaker 1: couple of years.
- 9:30Speaker 5: Willie, do you think that the negativity is warranted that
- 9:33Speaker 5: a lot of Panther fans have that we interact with?
- 9:36Speaker 5: Or do you think it's a little over the top
- 9:38Speaker 5: at times?
- 9:39Speaker 1: I think that having a longer preseason has made us
- 9:44Speaker 1: open and prone to, you know, more data points and
- 9:47Speaker 1: the appeal and the potential for more negativity. I just
- 9:50Speaker 1: think that the thing that I come back to is
- 9:52Speaker 1: that Panther fans want to see their team look like
- 9:55Speaker 1: the rest of the league or look like the teams
- 9:57Speaker 1: that are in the top X line. They don't want qualifiers.
- 10:01Speaker 1: They don't want, oh, well, what about the quarterback? Or
- 10:03Speaker 1: they don't want, oh, well, what about the defense that
- 10:05Speaker 1: gives up 400 yards a game? It's kind of like
- 10:07Speaker 1: one of those things where it's like, why can't we
- 10:10Speaker 1: just be like everybody else? Or why do we have
- 10:12Speaker 1: to be in a division that's universally panned? It almost
- 10:15Speaker 1: kind of feels like they have finally punched back and
- 10:18Speaker 1: felt like, okay, we've gotten to a level where we
- 10:20Speaker 1: feel like we're pretty good.
- 10:22Speaker 7: And yet it.
- 10:23Speaker 1: Seems like there's always this kind of like, what if,
- 10:26Speaker 1: or a, but, or there's an injury or there's a
- 10:28Speaker 1: rash of injuries or there's particular position that's, you know,
- 10:31Speaker 1: Taylor Bowden has an off the field injury, you know,
- 10:33Speaker 1: those kinds of things.
- 10:34Speaker 2: It's like they want.
- 10:35Speaker 1: So badly to take that next step. I think that's
- 10:38Speaker 1: the one thing that I think the fans want. And
- 10:40Speaker 1: I'm not saying that, that the negativity is unwarranted or warranted,
- 10:45Speaker 1: but I see where they're coming from.
- 10:47Speaker 4: I think concerns are warranted after the way the preseason
- 10:50Speaker 4: went with the injuries and some of the offensive stuff.
- 10:52Speaker 4: I think the freak out, like the vibe I get
- 10:55Speaker 4: from some PR, we will not win a football game
- 10:59Speaker 4: for the next three seasons.
- 11:00Speaker 2: You know what I mean?
- 11:01Speaker 7: That part is crazy.
- 11:03Speaker 1: That part is 100% crazy.
- 11:05Speaker 2: Some go a little too far.
- 11:07Speaker 1: This is the first year, and I've not been here
- 11:10Speaker 1: as long as y'all, but this is the first year
- 11:13Speaker 1: where I think you have the widest variance on what
- 11:17Speaker 1: the Panthers can be. I could see it going extremely well.
- 11:22Speaker 1: I could see it going incredibly bad. I could see
- 11:25Speaker 1: it be right in the middle.
- 11:26Speaker 2: I think that.
- 11:27Speaker 1: Truly we do not know. I think there are a
- 11:30Speaker 1: lot of factors in there. It's when guys come back.
- 11:33Speaker 1: It's how the schedule plays out. And the biggest factor
- 11:36Speaker 1: of them all is, Has Bryce taken that next step?
- 11:38Speaker 1: That's the biggest factor of them all.
- 11:41Speaker 4: P-Man, we can't have you on. You're the director of
- 11:45Speaker 4: culinary content. You always have been here. We can't have
- 11:48Speaker 4: you on without a food question. Husky Pants is preaching
- 11:52Speaker 4: the word of the Chick-fil-A chicken and waffle breakfast sandwich.
- 11:59Speaker 4: Do you know what else is on their bone? It's
- 12:01Speaker 4: the chicken sandwich, two waffles, syrup.
- 12:07Speaker 5: I think you get the syrup on the side per
- 12:10Speaker 5: what I saw on the TV commercial.
- 12:11Speaker 4: So you can pour the syrup on if you want to.
- 12:13Speaker 4: Bacon's on there. Bacon's optional, I believe, but bacon's always
- 12:16Speaker 4: good to put on there. Have you had this yet, Pete?
- 12:18Speaker 4: Because this sounds freaking amazing.
- 12:21Speaker 2: I have not.
- 12:23Speaker 1: I thought it was a limited test run.
- 12:25Speaker 4: Is it now available in our area? Yeah, it is
- 12:27Speaker 4: available right now. I think Husky's chomping on one right now.
- 12:31Speaker 4: We got to do this, Bob.
- 12:32Speaker 7: I would.
- 12:32Speaker 2: You got to try this. I'm ready. I'm game.
- 12:34Speaker 1: I love chicken and waffles. I'm a big chicken and
- 12:36Speaker 1: waffles fan. Whenever I get chicken and waffles, I usually
- 12:39Speaker 1: like to go the sweet heat type route. So, like,
- 12:43Speaker 1: I'll put, you know, ketchup on– or not ketchup, hot
- 12:45Speaker 1: sauce on the chicken and then syrup on the waffle
- 12:50Speaker 1: and get a little sweet heat thing going action. By
- 12:52Speaker 1: the way, did you guys hear that the baby's got
- 12:54Speaker 1: a new chicken and waffles joint?
- 12:56Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 12:56Speaker 2: Yeah. You had like a three hour wait the other
- 12:58Speaker 2: day when it opened.
- 12:59Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 12:59Speaker 2: I saw that.
- 13:00Speaker 1: It's like, it's like, it's like $ 25 to get chicken
- 13:03Speaker 1: and waffles.
- 13:04Speaker 2: Oh, I didn't realize that.
- 13:05Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 13:06Speaker 2: I think I'll go for the sandwich. That's it.
- 13:07Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 13:07Speaker 2: That does seem a little expensive. We forgot that. Yeah.
- 13:10Speaker 7: Go ahead.
- 13:11Speaker 2: Go ahead.
- 13:13Speaker 1: We'll see.
- 13:13Speaker 7: We'll see.
- 13:14Speaker 2: Honey butter spread's also on there. Honey butter spread on
- 13:17Speaker 2: the waffle.
- 13:17Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 13:18Speaker 2: You get spicy.
- 13:18Speaker 1: I do like honey butter.
- 13:19Speaker 4: You can get the spicy or the regular filet if
- 13:21Speaker 4: you want to. Seth in Mount Pleasant says it's great. Yeah,
- 13:25Speaker 4: we got to do, we got to, maybe we should
- 13:26Speaker 4: make it a, we were talking about making it like
- 13:28Speaker 4: one of our taste test videos or something.
- 13:31Speaker 2: Yeah, snack and bone.
- 13:32Speaker 1: Yeah. May I be invited?
- 13:35Speaker 2: Do I get to be invited?
- 13:35Speaker 1: Or are you guys going to, you know, dismean.
- 13:37Speaker 2: And buy Tro next time?
- 13:39Speaker 5: This is available till November 20, November 14th.
- 13:44Speaker 2: So it's out there for a little while. Why is
- 13:46Speaker 2: it making it a limited run?
- 13:47Speaker 4: That voice went up a couple of octaves.
- 13:53Speaker 2: I'm guessing if it, yeah.
- 13:56Speaker 1: Is it limited so they can keep shoveling out those
- 13:59Speaker 1: crappy fries that they have?
- 14:02Speaker 2: I knew.
- 14:02Speaker 4: I knew, Bone, we could not get through a Chick-fil-A
- 14:05Speaker 4: segment without slander. I don't love their fries, but it
- 14:08Speaker 4: doesn't deserve this sort of angle.
- 14:10Speaker 2: Here's the thing about the Chick-fil-A fry. It needs sauce.
- 14:13Speaker 6: It's the one fry that I need to have Chick-fil-A
- 14:15Speaker 6: sauce to dip it in.
- 14:17Speaker 2: I agree.
- 14:17Speaker 1: I agree.
- 14:19Speaker 2: The waffle fry in the Chick-fil-A sauce is tremendous, though.
- 14:22Speaker 1: You know what I think of when I'm eating a
- 14:23Speaker 1: Chick-fil-A waffle fry, the very rare time that I eat
- 14:25Speaker 1: a Chick-fil-A waffle fry? It has the consistency of, like,
- 14:28Speaker 1: one of those floaties you have in the pool.
- 14:30Speaker 2: That's what it feels like.
- 14:31Speaker 1: I feel like I'm sitting on one of those floaties
- 14:33Speaker 1: in the pool. That's the consistency. I don't need that
- 14:36Speaker 1: in my French fries.
- 14:37Speaker 6: So do you get a fruit cup as a side
- 14:39Speaker 6: when you go to Chick-fil-A?
- 14:40Speaker 1: No, I get mac and cheese like a real American, Vinny.
- 14:46Speaker 2: Oh, my God. How does a French fry taste like
- 14:49Speaker 2: a pool noodle?
- 14:52Speaker 7: It does.
- 14:52Speaker 1: I have Chick-fil-A figuring it out. My pleasure.
- 14:55Speaker 2: They figured it out. Unbelievable.
- 14:57Speaker 4: The headline from this interview is, you should be deported
- 15:01Speaker 4: if you get fries and not mac and cheese at Chick-fil-A.
- 15:04Speaker 2: You are not worthy of this great country. Oh, man.
- 15:07Speaker 4: All right, P-Man. Montreal tonight, P-Man. Game is 7.30, if
- 15:13Speaker 4: I'm not mistaken. He's got a swine he's got to
- 15:15Speaker 4: give out. We're about 7.39. Pre-game at 7 right here
- 15:18Speaker 4: on WFNZ.
- 15:19Speaker 1: Swine's LSU. Move on. That's okay.
- 15:22Speaker 2: Swine's LSU.
- 15:24Speaker 4: Did you not unswine them now that they're apparently backing
- 15:26Speaker 4: off and not rostering those two players?
- 15:30Speaker 1: Lane is backpedaling like an SEC corner who doesn't turn
- 15:33Speaker 1: his head. It's okay.
- 15:34Speaker 2: It's fine, though.
- 15:35Speaker 4: He's backpedaling like those Missouri corners on Friday night. Now
- 15:40Speaker 4: I jumped in.
- 15:41Speaker 2: I'm sorry. Now I'm done.
- 15:42Speaker 4: All right, P-Man. Well, hey, have a good call tonight, brother.
- 15:46Speaker 4: I'll be listening. Appreciate you, man.
- 15:49Speaker 1: Y'all be sorry you treated me this way.
- 15:51Speaker 2: There you go.
- 15:52Speaker 4: That is Willie P. That's a cryptic last comment there.
- 15:56Speaker 4: I don't tell you a threat. What does that mean?
- 15:59Speaker 4: Is he going to withhold his services? Is he going
- 16:01Speaker 4: to file a lawsuit like the SEC?
- 16:04Speaker 2: What does that last comment mean?
- 16:06Speaker 5: Jay Ricard wants us to invite Weatherman Mark and Willie
- 16:09Speaker 5: P to the Chick-fil-A taste test.
- 16:10Speaker 2: Oh, Weatherman Mark's reaction. My God, it.
- 16:13Speaker 5: Tastes like chicken and waffles. I'm getting a little hit
- 16:16Speaker 5: of chicken. Willie P's got the weatherman mark down to us.
- 16:20Speaker 6: Have we heard from him since Willie went after him
- 16:24Speaker 6: last week?
- 16:26Speaker 5: If you say his name three times, he'll appear. If
- 16:29Speaker 5: we want him, we can get him. I don't think
- 16:31Speaker 5: we've heard from him.
- 16:31Speaker 4: I heard him on KB's show telling KB how he
- 16:33Speaker 4: was a high school basketball coach in the past.
- 16:35Speaker 2: I'm sorry?
- 16:36Speaker 4: Imagine his pep talk. Do you think his halftime speech
- 16:40Speaker 4: would be like Lane Kiffin's the other night?
- 16:42Speaker 5: He was texting yesterday, KB, about gambling houses. Screw gambling houses.
- 16:48Speaker 2: So there you go. He's not happy with Vegas, I guess.
- 16:50Speaker 4: There you have it. By the way, big news, big

- 19:00Speaker 2: part of the Gamecock staff.
- 19:01Speaker 4: A lot of us remember him for his head coaching
- 19:04Speaker 4: job at Georgia Tech, Temple before that. If I read
- 19:08Speaker 4: off his whole resume in coaching, bone, the interview would
- 19:10Speaker 4: be over. We'd be out of time. He is an
- 19:13Speaker 4: accomplished coach, and he's doing the media thing right now.
- 19:16Speaker 4: And this is some stuff you might want to check
- 19:18Speaker 4: out on his YouTube channel, at Coach Jeff Collins. He
- 19:23Speaker 4: is Jeff Collins, and he joins us to talk some
- 19:25Speaker 4: college football here on the Mac and Bone Show.
- 19:27Speaker 2: Coach, it is a pleasure. Thank you for coming on.
- 19:31Speaker 7: Heck yeah, I appreciate it. I'd love the intro and
- 19:34Speaker 7: just make sure people understand when they spell the name,
- 19:36Speaker 7: Coach Jeff Collins is G-E-O-F-F. As George Washington said, there's
- 19:41Speaker 7: going to be two ways to spell that name, J-E-F-F
- 19:44Speaker 7: the wrong way, G-E-O-F-F the right way. So please follow, like,
- 19:48Speaker 7: and subscribe, and let's go.
- 19:52Speaker 2: Let's get that straight. Let's get that straight.
- 19:54Speaker 5: Coach, I never knew this. Are you also called Scooter?
- 19:56Speaker 5: That's on your Wikipedia page.
- 19:59Speaker 7: I have no idea, man. Nobody's called me Scooter to
- 20:02Speaker 7: my face, so I have no idea.
- 20:04Speaker 4: Look at that. It says Scooter Collins, and it's your bio.
- 20:07Speaker 4: It says William Jeffrey Scooter Collins. What the heck? Get
- 20:11Speaker 4: that off Wikipedia.
- 20:13Speaker 7: I've got to talk to my PR team. I've got
- 20:15Speaker 7: to get South Carolina taken off. I've got to get
- 20:20Speaker 7: Scooter taken off, too.
- 20:21Speaker 5: I'm glad I asked you before saying Scooter because that
- 20:24Speaker 5: would be awkward. You're like, who the hell is Scooter?
- 20:26Speaker 5: That is hilarious. That is hilarious. All right, so let's
- 20:32Speaker 5: talk about what's going on in the world of college football.
- 20:37Speaker 5: I want to start with the Clemson situation. Dabo had
- 20:42Speaker 5: that thing. And listen, we're comparing Dabo and the program
- 20:45Speaker 5: to where only he has had it, right? Like he
- 20:48Speaker 5: had it to where they were right there, 1-1-A with
- 20:51Speaker 5: Nick Saban's Alabama.
- 20:53Speaker 4: But it clearly has dropped off. What do you think
- 20:56Speaker 4: are the reasons for the drop-off at Clemson?
- 21:00Speaker 7: So I think that everything that happened Saturday night in
- 21:04Speaker 7: Death Valley against LSU, I do not know that there
- 21:09Speaker 7: are many teams in college football that would have walked
- 21:12Speaker 7: into that environment and had success last Saturday night. Like
- 21:17Speaker 7: I've coached in Death Valley at night. I've coached in
- 21:19Speaker 7: Death Valley during the day. It's two different environments. But
- 21:23Speaker 7: then you add LSU at night and the can of
- 21:29Speaker 7: gasoline situation that great Kiffin poured on it, there ain't
- 21:34Speaker 7: a lot of teams that are going to go in
- 21:35Speaker 7: that environment and have a ton of success. So I
- 21:37Speaker 7: think people need to have that perspective a little bit
- 21:41Speaker 7: as well. And I do think Dabo's had a great run.
- 21:45Speaker 7: He's a phenomenal coach, maybe even a better person. But
- 21:50Speaker 7: I just think there's a new age of college football,
- 21:54Speaker 7: and there's a lot of us, and I might be
- 21:56Speaker 7: included in this, that do remember the days of five,
- 22:01Speaker 7: ten years ago and how you build a program, how
- 22:04Speaker 7: you build young men within your program, the values and
- 22:08Speaker 7: the things that take to run a great program. I
- 22:14Speaker 7: don't know that they're the same in this present day
- 22:17Speaker 7: and time. And I think just the adjustment for some
- 22:21Speaker 7: places has been harder than the others because there's such
- 22:25Speaker 7: a we had so much success. We won two natties.
- 22:29Speaker 7: We had all of these, you know, number one draft
- 22:32Speaker 7: picks and first round draft picks. And it worked for
- 22:35Speaker 7: a long time. And just that change is harder for some.
- 22:41Speaker 7: And I completely get it.
- 22:44Speaker 5: Coach, we mentioned you were around the South Carolina program
- 22:46Speaker 5: last year. When it comes to this year, how much
- 22:50Speaker 5: do you think the addition of Kendall Bryles to the
- 22:52Speaker 5: staff will really finally unlock maybe the most they can
- 22:57Speaker 5: get out of Lenore Sellers?
- 22:59Speaker 7: Coach, it's amazing. I was with Shane. Shane and I
- 23:04Speaker 7: GA'd together at Georgia Tech 27, 8 years ago, so
- 23:08Speaker 7: one of my closest friends in the world. So I
- 23:11Speaker 7: was so blessed to be with him last year because
- 23:14Speaker 7: I know how lonely that seat can be. Like, it's
- 23:18Speaker 7: not lonely when you're 9, 10, 11 wins. Like, everybody's
- 23:21Speaker 7: your friend, right? But when you're having a year that
- 23:24Speaker 7: is not, you know, you're having a lot of close
- 23:26Speaker 7: losses and the record ends up being what it is,
- 23:29Speaker 7: even though you are playing really good football against a
- 23:33Speaker 7: great schedule, coach, that chair gets lonely. Everybody disappears on you.
- 23:39Speaker 7: And so I feel blessed to have been in the
- 23:41Speaker 7: seat that I was in and to kind of help
- 23:44Speaker 7: him through all the changes that he had to make
- 23:47Speaker 7: during the season, then helping through that transition with finding Kendall,
- 23:52Speaker 7: hiring Kendall. And I think you look at game one,
- 23:56Speaker 7: I know it's a small sample size, but Kendall Bryant's
- 23:59Speaker 7: success as an offensive play caller over the years is
- 24:02Speaker 7: next level great, right? And then you pair him with,
- 24:08Speaker 7: Lenora Sellers, who's a frequent athlete and a great kid,
- 24:12Speaker 7: I think was the perfect hire at the perfect time.
- 24:16Speaker 7: And the last piece of the puzzle is the schedule piece.
- 24:21Speaker 7: They've got a three-game run that they get to create some,
- 24:25Speaker 7: put up some big numbers, you know, put up some
- 24:28Speaker 7: great performances defensively, get a lot of positive energy coming
- 24:33Speaker 7: back before they go down the tough SEC stretch. Not
- 24:37Speaker 7: all those teams have that kind of setup. Like some
- 24:40Speaker 7: teams that are, you know, in positions that fan bases
- 24:44Speaker 7: are worried, they open up with top five teams, top
- 24:47Speaker 7: 10 teams, top 15 teams. And, you know, like if
- 24:50Speaker 7: you look at Mike Norvell, they play a top 20
- 24:53Speaker 7: SMU down to the wire. The energy is still not
- 24:59Speaker 7: great because they lost. If they had played a FCS
- 25:02Speaker 7: or a group of six, they might win by four scores.
- 25:07Speaker 7: the conversations are tempered for a little bit. So I
- 25:11Speaker 7: think all of the things coming into play these days
- 25:14Speaker 7: in college football, but I'm so fired up for Shane.
- 25:18Speaker 7: Clayton White, the defense coordinator, is one of my dear friends.
- 25:21Speaker 7: They get a great start to the season and enroll
- 25:25Speaker 7: into SEC play, clicking on all cylinders.
- 25:28Speaker 4: We're talking with longtime college football coach Jeff Collins. Check
- 25:31Speaker 4: him out. Check that YouTube channel out, at Coach Jeff Collins.
- 25:35Speaker 4: He says he spells Jeff the right way, G-E-O-F-F. Find
- 25:39Speaker 4: his YouTube breakdowns. It's really good stuff, and he's just
- 25:43Speaker 4: getting going with it. He's going to grow this. I
- 25:46Speaker 4: loved your passion coach. I want to talk to you.
- 25:48Speaker 4: You know, I thought another example of how good Kendall
- 25:51Speaker 4: Bryles was, was on display in Ireland when the TCU
- 25:54Speaker 4: offense without him scored only 10 points. I know the
- 25:56Speaker 4: weather was rough, but that was a big win for
- 25:59Speaker 4: North Carolina. We got a lot of heels fans. Listen,
- 26:02Speaker 4: there's a lot of noise off the field. What did
- 26:05Speaker 4: you see from Carolina in that football game? And do
- 26:07Speaker 4: you expect it to be, you know, a improved season,
- 26:12Speaker 4: improved team this year at UNC?
- 26:15Speaker 7: So the positive that you can take away is they
- 26:19Speaker 7: won the game. However ugly it may have been, it
- 26:23Speaker 7: was typical Ireland weather, right? It's in another country. There's
- 26:27Speaker 7: a lot of things, but they pulled it out in
- 26:30Speaker 7: a typical Bill Belichick fashion. If they can keep doing that,
- 26:34Speaker 7: that bodes well. But the thing that I was impressed
- 26:37Speaker 7: with being a defensive guy is I thought the front
- 26:41Speaker 7: four in the Carolina blue was dominant. So regardless of
- 26:46Speaker 7: whatever else happened, good ball, bad ball, whatever, that defensive
- 26:51Speaker 7: line and that jersey number nine, the defensive end, they're really,
- 26:55Speaker 7: really good. And I think if you can lean into
- 26:58Speaker 7: the strengths of that defensive line, I think Bill called
- 27:01Speaker 7: the defense or obviously was heavily involved. in the game planning. Like,
- 27:07Speaker 7: I'm a really good defense coordinator. I'm not Bill Belichick.
- 27:10Speaker 7: To see him, you know, having his blueprint and his
- 27:14Speaker 7: fingerprints on it accompanied with a tremendous front four, I
- 27:21Speaker 7: think they're going to be in a lot of games.
- 27:24Speaker 5: Coach, we now have a fight between Jeffs on the
- 27:26Speaker 5: text line right now of the J-E-F-Fs versus the way
- 27:29Speaker 5: you spell it.
- 27:30Speaker 2: Oh, my goodness. It's a whole feud. I didn't know
- 27:32Speaker 2: there was a whole feud like this, Coach.
- 27:35Speaker 5: Now, for as well as it went for UNC Week Zero,
- 27:39Speaker 5: the next game did not go well for, if you're
- 27:42Speaker 5: a Pack fan, how surprised were you that Virginia dominated
- 27:47Speaker 5: the way that they did against NC State? And having
- 27:50Speaker 5: seen State, what do you think is fixable from that
- 27:53Speaker 5: performance going forward?
- 27:56Speaker 7: Yeah, let me just say this real quick. Some people
- 27:58Speaker 7: like to be ordinary and be very calm and And
- 28:01Speaker 7: the way they spell their name is just very common.
- 28:03Speaker 7: Others like to be unique, like to be different, like
- 28:06Speaker 7: to stand out amongst the crowd. And that's fine. You
- 28:09Speaker 7: can choose which way you want to be. I get it.
- 28:11Speaker 2: Which type of Jeff do you want to be?
- 28:15Speaker 7: I'm fine. You can be like everybody else or you
- 28:17Speaker 7: can be unique. And, you know, I'm good either way.
- 28:21Speaker 7: But interestingly, so I did a road trip during preseason.
- 28:25Speaker 7: I went to 30 different camps during preseason. It was phenomenal.
- 28:29Speaker 7: My first two stops because of week zero, the number
- 28:33Speaker 7: one stop on the tour was in Charlottesville. The number
- 28:35Speaker 7: two stop on the tour was in Raleigh to go
- 28:39Speaker 7: see both practices. Most practices are closed to everybody. I'm
- 28:42Speaker 7: blessed that I was able to get in. And the
- 28:45Speaker 7: thing that I took away, I thought both had very
- 28:49Speaker 7: talented programs, right? And the defense that I saw in
- 28:53Speaker 7: Charlottesville that day, was impressive. I was like, this is
- 28:57Speaker 7: going to be a really, really good defense. And like Bo,
- 29:00Speaker 7: whatever his name is, Pribula, the kid that ran for Missouri, right? Well,
- 29:05Speaker 7: you can't touch the quarterback in practice, so I couldn't
- 29:08Speaker 7: really get a sense of who he was, right? So
- 29:11Speaker 7: I left the practice. It's going to be a great defense.
- 29:14Speaker 7: I don't know about the quarterback. I go to NC
- 29:16Speaker 7: State's practice. I thought Dave Dorn ran a great practice, physical, competitive,
- 29:22Speaker 7: and I didn't see a lot of holes on the team.
- 29:25Speaker 7: But the thing that stood out was the quarterback at
- 29:28Speaker 7: NC State was noticeably great and different and special. But
- 29:34Speaker 7: then you turn on the game and the things that
- 29:38Speaker 7: went head-to-head were Virginia's defense, I thought, had a dominant performance, right?
- 29:45Speaker 7: And then you look at what Virginia did offensively. They
- 29:50Speaker 7: did so many things that Des Kitchens, the offense coordinator,
- 29:54Speaker 7: has never done before. Things that Bo, the quarterback, didn't
- 29:59Speaker 7: do at Missouri. So I can see how NC State
- 30:02Speaker 7: wasn't ready because it was a completely different scheme. And
- 30:07Speaker 7: once that quarterback for Virginia's dot starts blinking like on
- 30:10Speaker 7: EA Sports or Madden, it's hard to stop and shut
- 30:14Speaker 7: that down. And that's exactly how it played out.
- 30:17Speaker 2: Man, that's a great breakdown.
- 30:19Speaker 4: Great perspective from you, Coach, being at those two practices. Coach,
- 30:25Speaker 4: you mentioned you were a senior defensive assistant on Coach
- 30:29Speaker 4: Beamer's staff in South Carolina last year. Now you've got
- 30:32Speaker 4: all these media things going on. Do you want to
- 30:35Speaker 4: get back into coaching, or do you kind of feel
- 30:38Speaker 4: like this stuff has gotten a little too crazy, like
- 30:40Speaker 4: the game's changed too much?
- 30:41Speaker 2: What do you think?
- 30:43Speaker 7: So that's very interesting. So since I was the head
- 30:46Speaker 7: coach at Georgia tech, I've been presented so many things
- 30:49Speaker 7: to be a head coach again, to be a coordinator
- 30:51Speaker 7: at elite programs across the country. I've been asked to
- 30:55Speaker 7: be a, you know, calling games on ESPN in studio analyst,
- 31:00Speaker 7: all of those kinds of things have been presented to me.
- 31:03Speaker 7: And I know those will be presented again, come December,
- 31:05Speaker 7: January with the coaching, but this thing is a lot
- 31:08Speaker 7: of fun. Like I get the, Hang out on a
- 31:12Speaker 7: Thursday morning, Wednesday morning, watching my daughter in a horse
- 31:15Speaker 7: lesson and talk football with you guys. This is fun, man.
- 31:20Speaker 7: And like in this YouTube content space, there's nobody that's
- 31:25Speaker 7: like me with my resume that is doing this. And
- 31:28Speaker 7: when they presented it to me, I can sit in
- 31:31Speaker 7: the studio in a suit and tie or I can
- 31:33Speaker 7: sit in my man cave rocking a sleeveless hoodie. Hey,
- 31:37Speaker 7: I kind of like the choice B. And so I'm
- 31:39Speaker 7: just going to go with this and just see where
- 31:42Speaker 7: it takes me. And I'm having a ton of fun.
- 31:45Speaker 7: I get to watch a ton of ball. I get
- 31:47Speaker 7: to talk ball. I get to spend time being a
- 31:50Speaker 7: girl dad, be spending time with my wife. Right now,
- 31:53Speaker 7: life is pretty good. But I got to imagine come December, January, when,
- 31:58Speaker 7: you know, some big names come call and I'm definitely
- 32:01Speaker 7: going to have to listen because I do love college football,
- 32:04Speaker 7: but I'm going to have fun with this while I'm
- 32:06Speaker 7: doing it.
- 32:06Speaker 5: We've been doing this for 20-plus years each, Mac, for
- 32:09Speaker 5: 30 years over here. We can tell when guys just
- 32:12Speaker 5: naturally have that gift of communication for explaining the game.
- 32:17Speaker 2: If you stay with this, man, you're going to absolutely
- 32:19Speaker 2: crush the media thing.
- 32:20Speaker 7: I appreciate it, man.
- 32:23Speaker 2: Thank you, Coach.
- 32:24Speaker 4: Everybody watch at Coach Jeff Collins.
- 32:27Speaker 2: That's Jeff with a G.
- 32:29Speaker 4: At Coach Jeff Collins on his YouTube channel and then
- 32:32Speaker 4: on Twitter slash X at Coach Collins.
- 32:35Speaker 2: Thank you, Coach. We appreciate it.
- 32:38Speaker 7: Man, fun talking ball with you guys. Thanks, Coach.
- 32:41Speaker 2: There you go.
- 32:42Speaker 4: That is Coach Jeff Collins joining us on the Mac
- 32:45Speaker 4: and Bone Show.
- 32:45Speaker 2: You're right, man. He's a natural at it. He really is.
- 32:47Speaker 2: He's into it. You can tell he's fired up about it.
- 32:49Speaker 2: Good dude, man.
- 32:50Speaker 4: And you can tell, even though these coaches, they get
- 32:53Speaker 4: the coaching bug, they want to compete. You can tell
- 32:55Speaker 4: he appreciates living a football lifestyle like we do, Bone,
- 32:59Speaker 4: which is hungering down and watching all the damn games.
- 33:01Speaker 2: And he's right. I mean, he.
- 33:03Speaker 5: Yes, Georgia Tech head coach, Temple head coach, but don't
- 33:06Speaker 5: forget he was the D.C.
- 33:07Speaker 2: At Florida.
- 33:08Speaker 5: He was with Dan Mullen at Mississippi State, UCF, Bama,
- 33:12Speaker 5: started at West. He's been all over the football world.
- 33:15Speaker 5: He's been with some pretty big names along the way, too,
- 33:17Speaker 5: as a D.C. He and Matt Rule for three seasons together.
- 33:21Speaker 4: He was the D.C., and Matt Rule was assistant head coach,
- 33:24Speaker 4: linebackers coach at Western Carolina.
- 33:26Speaker 2: Yeah, one of my best friends played under those guys.
- 33:28Speaker 2: He was on that? Okay, I was wondering if he was.
- 33:30Speaker 2: He was there, yeah. Nice, nice.
- 33:32Speaker 5: When we come back on the Mac and Bone Show,
- 33:34Speaker 5: it's the wrap-up. Mac, I can't believe I'm saying this.
- 33:38Speaker 5: Football NFL Wednesday has arrived. We'll preview that tonight. FC's
- 33:43Speaker 5: also in action, and the Braves, too, in a huge
- 33:45Speaker 5: game against Tampa. Sports Radio 92.7.
- 34:13Speaker 4: Sports Radio 92.7 WFNZ. I've made a decision, Bone. I
- 34:17Speaker 4: was very close to saying, Fitty, play that Colin Cowherd
- 34:21Speaker 4: talking about Dabo.
- 34:23Speaker 2: I want the Clemson fans off the mat.
- 34:25Speaker 4: I would like, Boney, I would like you to help
- 34:27Speaker 4: me extend a handout. And let's help those Clemson fans
- 34:31Speaker 4: off the mat. Although you may just, you may pull
- 34:34Speaker 4: them up just to shove them back down again, but
- 34:36Speaker 4: I am not going to play any more national media
- 34:40Speaker 4: on Dabo guys.
- 34:41Speaker 5: I feel like, I feel like we got it. We're
- 34:43Speaker 5: on to Georgia Southern bone. Fitty, I agree with that.
- 34:47Speaker 5: We're going to cancel the Colin Cowherd. Fitty, will you
- 34:49Speaker 5: play either the Aaron Murray about Clemson being mid-level or
- 34:54Speaker 5: Andy Staples about Clemson.
- 34:55Speaker 2: Hitting right bottom? Stop that. Thank you for that, please.
- 34:58Speaker 2: Stop that, sir. I agree on what he said. Stop that, sir.
- 35:02Speaker 2: Let him off the mat, damn it.
- 35:03Speaker 5: There was about 8 million pieces of audio yesterday, either
- 35:06Speaker 5: involving Dabo and the presser or... Dabo is, again, because
- 35:11Speaker 5: he's always a national talking point. But sometimes it probably
- 35:15Speaker 5: was people trying to root for Dabo to fail. But
- 35:19Speaker 5: now that he has to some degree, the national people
- 35:22Speaker 5: just can't get enough of Dabo right now.
- 35:24Speaker 2: It's everywhere.
- 35:25Speaker 4: And we already hit you with a Stephen A uppercut
- 35:29Speaker 4: and then a left hook from Feinbaum. And then we
- 35:31Speaker 4: hit you with two segments of Chappell Fowler versus Dabo
- 35:35Speaker 4: in the press conference. I feel like at that point, Bone...
- 35:38Speaker 4: We need to— I feel like the horse is dead.
- 35:42Speaker 5: I feel like the horse is dead. But Finney put
- 35:43Speaker 5: that work in, though, on the Murray and Staples audio.
- 35:45Speaker 5: I hate the word not to be used. In fairness, Finney,
- 35:47Speaker 5: I did ask you to get those cuts. I did
- 35:51Speaker 5: order them up, but now I'm thinking better of it.
- 35:53Speaker 5: I'm thinking better of it right now.
- 35:54Speaker 2: Matt, call them off. We do have the John Summer audio, Matt.
- 35:57Speaker 2: Call up the dogs.
- 35:57Speaker 5: Ripping his defense after they won by 100 the other day.
- 36:01Speaker 4: You've got to love these coaches, man. Looking for perfection.
- 36:04Speaker 4: I'm just going to scream at you. Like the Lane
- 36:06Speaker 4: Kiffin halftime speech. All right, let's get to some text here.
- 36:09Speaker 4: I do want to mention tonight, NFL, it does feel weird.
- 36:13Speaker 4: It's a Wednesday night. The NFL starts with the Super
- 36:15Speaker 4: Bowl rematch. Seattle and the Patriots, we have made it, baby.
- 36:20Speaker 4: We have fully made it to the NFL season.
- 36:23Speaker 5: All my rowdy friends are here for Wednesday night.
- 36:27Speaker 2: How many annoyed wives are there out there that's like.
- 36:30Speaker 4: Oh, my God, they're playing on a Wednesday now, too?
- 36:33Speaker 2: Thought I had one more night.
- 36:34Speaker 5: Yeah, then they're going to think, oh, they're also playing
- 36:36Speaker 5: on Thursday. This is two nights now.
- 36:38Speaker 4: Bunch of buddies coming over tonight.
- 36:40Speaker 2: The wives are like, why are they here?
- 36:42Speaker 5: Don't put it past the NFL, though, if this thing's
- 36:45Speaker 5: successful ratings-wise, and why would it not be? They're going
- 36:48Speaker 5: to think, huh, Wednesday, Thursday, going forward, we can put
- 36:52Speaker 5: two games on during the week.
- 36:53Speaker 4: Oh, no.
- 36:54Speaker 5: Remember Friday nights before they've done the Brazil game the week.
- 36:57Speaker 5: If this goes well, and it will, they're going to think, huh,
- 37:01Speaker 5: We can put games on every day.
- 37:03Speaker 4: We'll put on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday. They can do Wednesday
- 37:06Speaker 4: and week one if they want to, whatever. That's what
- 37:08Speaker 4: I'm talking about. They're going to try to load up.
- 37:10Speaker 4: If they try to find Wednesday and Thursday during the day,
- 37:13Speaker 4: they want to play two watered-down games each week where
- 37:16Speaker 4: teams have short weeks.
- 37:18Speaker 5: I meant more for the opening of the season. They're
- 37:20Speaker 5: going to think, oh, we can do Tuesday, Wednesday, and
- 37:23Speaker 5: Thursday going forward.
- 37:24Speaker 4: All right, let's see what we got here on the
- 37:25Speaker 4: text line.
- 37:29Speaker 1: 704-570-9610.
- 37:29Speaker 4: If you want to jump in here, send your text
- 37:32Speaker 4: in on the Mac and Bone Show. Let's read some
- 37:35Speaker 4: of y'all's work out there.
- 37:37Speaker 2: Let's see.
- 37:38Speaker 4: This texter says, Coach Collins, certified football guy.
- 37:43Speaker 2: 100%, man.
- 37:44Speaker 5: He doesn't want to do the TV stuff because he
- 37:47Speaker 5: doesn't want to wear his hoodie and sit on the couch.
- 37:50Speaker 2: I love it, man. I love it.
- 37:51Speaker 1: One of us.
- 37:52Speaker 4: This texter says, we really believe in food takes from Willie,
- 37:55Speaker 4: a guy whose brisket tastes like quick treat.
- 37:59Speaker 2: Oh, my God. Get bent.
- 38:01Speaker 5: Not to be outdone. You don't treat Captain Arugula that way.
- 38:04Speaker 5: Not to be outdone.
- 38:06Speaker 4: Ishmael says, you just said you're giving Willie a yellow card.
- 38:11Speaker 4: What color card does Willie get when he burns his brisket?
- 38:14Speaker 2: Is that brown?
- 38:14Speaker 1: Jeez.
- 38:14Speaker 2: Who are you trying to play, pal? Don't play me.
- 38:18Speaker 2: Because I know ball.
- 38:20Speaker 4: At what point, Matt, do we call off the dogs
- 38:21Speaker 4: on the Willie Brisket judge? We call off the dogs
- 38:24Speaker 4: on Dabo, finally. Do we ever call off? I don't
- 38:26Speaker 4: know about this one, though. I feel like the dogs.
- 38:29Speaker 4: You're Judge Whopper here. When do we call off the
- 38:31Speaker 4: dogs on this thing? You're a sensible guy.
- 38:34Speaker 7: Never.
- 38:35Speaker 2: Is that your Stephen A.
- 38:37Speaker 4: Smith?
- 38:37Speaker 6: No, that's my Alfred when he's talking to Batman.
- 38:40Speaker 2: I was watching Batman Begins last night.
- 38:42Speaker 6: I wanted to bring that impression out.
- 38:45Speaker 2: Thank you for that. Thank you for that. The Mets
- 38:48Speaker 2: are not on the TV anymore, are they, Fetty? Dude,
- 38:51Speaker 2: the Mets are no longer in last place. They're now
- 38:54Speaker 2: fourth place in the National League East.
- 38:55Speaker 4: I noticed you had tennis time and Batman time on
- 38:58Speaker 4: your TV last night, though.
- 39:00Speaker 6: I was recording and drafting my fantasy teams while the
- 39:02Speaker 6: Mets were playing, but I kept up with them. Wants
- 39:04Speaker 6: to hit a home run for the Brett Beatty. Don't
- 39:07Speaker 6: try to come over here because your Orioles are falling apart.
- 39:09Speaker 4: And you checked out. How many Cowboys did you draft?
- 39:11Speaker 4: I was watching last night. We had a chance to
- 39:13Speaker 4: cut it to two-game lead.
- 39:15Speaker 5: I'm not saying you would. I just want to make
- 39:16Speaker 5: sure that you didn't draft any Cowboys last night. Checking
- 39:19Speaker 5: out your roster.
- 39:20Speaker 2: I don't think I did, actually. All right, you're clean.
- 39:23Speaker 2: All right, let me read some more text here.
- 39:27Speaker 4: 704-570-9610. 704 number says, Dabo will be back. The haters
- 39:31Speaker 4: can enjoy it now, but I truly believe he has
- 39:34Speaker 4: what it takes to get them back to the mountaintop.
- 39:37Speaker 2: He'll be back with Jeff Collins on YouTube.
- 39:40Speaker 4: Here's the thing. I've been hearing a lot of the
- 39:42Speaker 4: NIL stuff. Stuff today from the Clemson fans not hearing,
- 39:46Speaker 4: reading on the text line. And I think they have
- 39:50Speaker 4: probably around $ 20 million. I mean, I don't know for sure.
- 39:52Speaker 4: NIL money. And they're trying to compete with an LSU
- 39:56Speaker 4: that's got about $ 50 million. But shouldn't you be able
- 40:00Speaker 4: to be better than 7-6, though?
- 40:03Speaker 2: That's my whole point. It's one thing. Shouldn't you be
- 40:06Speaker 2: better than....
- 40:08Speaker 1: 51-10?
- 40:09Speaker 4: Like, I'm not saying, I get it. I'm not saying
- 40:11Speaker 4: you should beat LSU in Dead Valley. But the way
- 40:14Speaker 4: they're getting embarrassed, Bone, when they play these SEC schools, like,
- 40:18Speaker 4: that's the problem.
- 40:19Speaker 2: Being 7-6 during a.
- 40:21Speaker 4: Season in the ACC, shouldn't they be higher up in
- 40:23Speaker 4: the ACC standings?
- 40:24Speaker 5: I mean, to not be competitive against those teams is
- 40:26Speaker 5: the problem. There's no shame in losing to Georgia and LSU.
- 40:30Speaker 5: It's the way they're doing it.
- 40:31Speaker 7: 100%.
- 40:31Speaker 5: And also I'll throw Duke in there as well, who
- 40:34Speaker 5: blew him out as well.
- 40:35Speaker 4: Chicken biscuit. Tuesday and Wednesday are reserved for Maction only.
- 40:39Speaker 4: That's a football reference bag, not your personal one, Frank.
- 40:43Speaker 4: Ain't much matching going on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday. Ain't
- 40:47Speaker 4: a whole lot of matching, man. Oh, my goodness.
- 40:51Speaker 2: The smooth from the four on the text line. Did
- 40:54Speaker 2: I do that right? Smooth from the four. Smooth from
- 40:57Speaker 2: that four.
- 40:58Speaker 4: Says Willie's brisket is like tree bark dry as all
- 41:02Speaker 4: get out. This dude says, Mac can't cook anything but
- 41:07Speaker 4: a damn hot dog. Ain't even allowed to run his
- 41:10Speaker 4: own grill. Tries to flap his gums at the P-Man.
- 41:13Speaker 2: I'm 52! I'm an old, decrepit man! That was not
- 41:18Speaker 2: me lie, by the way. That was not me lie.
- 41:20Speaker 2: All right, we got to get out of here. Good
- 41:22Speaker 2: work out of the bone, man. The Fit Dog. Willie,
- 41:24Speaker 2: we love you, though, baby. We love you.
- 41:25Speaker 7: Dabo!
- 41:26Speaker 4: I don't know if we love you or not. You
- 41:27Speaker 4: give us a lot of content.
- 41:28Speaker 2: We're out of here. Colin Hoggard, Charles Sports Today. Don't
- 41:31Speaker 2: be a gotcha guy. Coming up next, the gotcha guys
- 41:34Speaker 2: signing off. Big old gompers.
- 41:38Speaker 4: You see the wrong dude naked, your appetite's gone. I'm
- 41:41Speaker 4: still trying to get the yank out of me.
