Willie's World: Charlotte FC Scenarios, Panthers & Swine of the Week · Mac & Bone Podcast

• 0:07
  Speaker 1: Allow me to reintroduce myself.
• 0:10
  Speaker 2: My name is.
• 0:10
  Speaker 3: I'm Will Pelagic.
• 0:20
  Speaker 2: Let's do it, baby.
• 0:21
  Speaker 4: Hour four on the Mac and Bone Show. And you
• 0:25
  Speaker 4: know what that music means. The P-Man is strutting into
• 0:29
  Speaker 4: the building, ladies and gentlemen, on a game day. Charlotte
• 0:33
  Speaker 4: FC tonight. Host in Montreal. Can they get a dub?
• 0:39
  Speaker 4: Can they qualify for the playoffs? Can they get that
• 0:42
  Speaker 4: out of the way? Sounds like Maxie back and Decore
• 0:48
  Speaker 4: to make his debut, it sounds like. We can talk
• 0:49
  Speaker 4: about that and so much more. The Panthers and more
• 0:53
  Speaker 4: with the P-Man. Who joins us? Willie P, voice of
• 0:56
  Speaker 4: Charlotte FC, and a man that certainly does every damn
• 1:00
  Speaker 4: thing here at WFNZ.
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: P-Man, how you feeling? What's going on?
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: And don't you forget it, Mac. And don't you forget it.
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: I do not intend.
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: There is no game. There is no P like game
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: day P.
• 1:10
  Speaker 3: Oh, yes. I feel like we were going to get
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: the best version today. I disagree. That 3 a.m. P
• 1:16
  Speaker 3: sometimes comes in handy.
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: That's more of an emergency scenario.
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: What do you think?
• 1:24
  Speaker 4: I'll ask you about the FC game tonight. This should
• 1:27
  Speaker 4: be three points. Should it not be three points, P?
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: How many times have we said that this year?
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: Okay. Look, it should be because Montreal is lousy. Their
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: big striker, Prince Owusu, was hurt. They've only won six
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: games on the year. They are the definition of a
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: team that is playing out the string. If not for
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: Sporting Kansas City, they'd be the wooden spoon team in
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: the league. So this should be a win. However, this
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: is a team that we unfortunately have struggled against. They've
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: only won three times in our history against Montreal. For
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: some reason, they've been our kryptonite. But I don't know
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: if those games necessarily drag into this one. I think
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: this team will come in highly motivated. They've not been
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: at home, really, for a very, very long time. The
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: MLS schedule maker did us no favors. They gave us
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: two three-game road trips on this side of the World Cup.
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: And we weren't even a World Cup venue. So, you know,
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: go figure. But somehow that happened. And, you know, we
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: get these last two home games in not necessarily what
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: I would call a favorable scenario. We get a midweek game,
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: and then we have to play on Halloween on a matinee.
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: Hopefully people come out there on Saturday. I'm looking forward
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: to it. Fan appreciation, Dave. We've got T-shirts and everything.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: for the fans on Saturday. But we always know that
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: nothing rocks the bank like a weekend nighttime contest. So
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: I don't necessarily feel like we got the best way
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: to finish from our friends over at the scheduling table
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: at MLS.
• 2:46
  Speaker 5: What's the current seating layout right now for FC in
• 2:49
  Speaker 5: terms of the postseason? Where are we right now? And
• 2:52
  Speaker 5: who are we scoreboard watching? And what area do you
• 2:54
  Speaker 5: think we may get to seed-wise? Well, we're currently sitting fifth.
• 2:59
  Speaker 5: Philadelphia hot on our tails, one point behind us. We
• 3:03
  Speaker 5: got a little favor from New England last week. Unfortunately,
• 3:05
  Speaker 5: it was kind of shared disruption because with New England
• 3:09
  Speaker 5: beating Philadelphia and keeping them away from us, it also
• 3:11
  Speaker 5: put New England further away from us, basically tied on
• 3:15
  Speaker 5: points with second place Miami. So that part of it
• 3:17
  Speaker 5: is a little bit difficult, keeping us away from potential
• 3:20
  Speaker 5: to get back in the top four. We are four
• 3:22
  Speaker 5: points behind Chicago, who is also in the top four,
• 3:25
  Speaker 5: It's looking very much like that might be the locked-in
• 3:30
  Speaker 5: spot we might be in unless Philadelphia leapfrogs us. In
• 3:33
  Speaker 5: terms of sitting in sixth, that might even be a
• 3:35
  Speaker 5: better matchup for us just based on the fact that
• 3:38
  Speaker 5: if we play New England, I think New England's a
• 3:40
  Speaker 5: more favorable matchup than Chicago is just because of the
• 3:42
  Speaker 5: way we've looked against Chicago this year. But at the
• 3:44
  Speaker 5: end of the day, you want to be as high
• 3:45
  Speaker 5: up in the table as possible regardless of the opponent.
• 3:47
  Speaker 5: So I want to see Charlotte try to get in
• 3:49
  Speaker 5: the top four. Chicago's got a couple of tricky matchups left.
• 3:52
  Speaker 5: They also play to Orlando just like we do. But
• 3:54
  Speaker 5: it's also one of those things where Charlotte at the,
• 3:56
  Speaker 5: at the very least just has to take care of
• 3:58
  Speaker 5: their own business. They, they cannot worry about help unless
• 4:00
  Speaker 5: they take care of their own business. So it's one
• 4:03
  Speaker 5: of those things where they'll need wins and help to
• 4:05
  Speaker 5: get back into the top four. They play Wednesday tonight
• 4:08
  Speaker 5: against Montreal Saturday against Orlando. And then I heard Mac
• 4:11
  Speaker 5: mentioning that little guy from Argentina. We get to see
• 4:14
  Speaker 5: him on the last day of the season on November
• 4:15
  Speaker 5: the 7th.
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: Will he play? Will he sit out for some reason?
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: Like what do we think?
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: Depends on what they need.
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: They might, they might, honestly sit there and say, you know,
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: second and third really isn't a big deal. They can't
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: win the supporter shield that's already wrapped up by Nashville.
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: The fact that it's at home, I think they actually
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: have had a little bit more of a protective aspect
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: of trying to play them at home a little bit
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: more just because it is a brand new stadium. They
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: want to get their money for that new stadium in there.
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: So hopefully we see– actually, I don't know what we
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: will see because, unfortunately, when we've played without him, we
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: haven't done well. We actually have done all right when
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: he's actually played against us. That's true.
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: I want to see him. I want to see the
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: little guy.
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: Bring it on.
• 4:57
  Speaker 4: Bring it on, little fella. So what do you think
• 5:00
  Speaker 4: about the Panthers? I mean, at the risk of angering
• 5:03
  Speaker 4: Trailer Park Thomas, who has sent 17 texts asking us
• 5:07
  Speaker 4: to rip Dan Morgan to shreds today.
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: He thinks that we have impact on what they do
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: over there.
• 5:13
  Speaker 4: He's he wants us to let, let him have it
• 5:15
  Speaker 4: over there. He didn't make any trades for Quentin Nelson
• 5:18
  Speaker 4: or DeForest Buckner.
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: The game was an.
• 5:20
  Speaker 4: Embarrassment and it was, but I feel like they will,
• 5:24
  Speaker 4: as has been their form the last couple of years,
• 5:27
  Speaker 4: I feel like they will bounce back and play a
• 5:30
  Speaker 4: hell of a lot better on Thursday. Are you ready
• 5:33
  Speaker 4: to go there P or can you not get Sunday
• 5:35
  Speaker 4: out of your mind?
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: What do you think?
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: Well, it's gotta be better than Sunday because Sunday felt
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: like a, an absolute no show. And, you know, these
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: Thursday night games can go one of two ways. Either
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: it can be a continuation of what we saw Sunday,
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: or we could see a response. And I think this
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: group is evolved enough to where we will see a response.
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: I just don't know if I'm 100% confident enough to
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: go there because, again, I looked at how limited that
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: Buccaneer offense was going to be outside of running the football,
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: and the fact that Carolina should have known that, whether
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: they did or they didn't, I don't know 100%, but
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: If they did know or had some kind of inkling
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: that they were that limited, one would have thought they
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: could have come up with a better plan in order
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: to try and neutralize Bucky Irving. To me, it's incredibly
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: alarming that that was the way it looked on Sunday.
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: I'm also a little bit concerned about the offensive line
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: and the fact that against a stout defense that Tampa
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: Bay is, they couldn't find ways to keep Bryce upright again.
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: Even when they were at full strength, like this, this
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: is his full strength that the line's going to get guys,
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: you know, unless they get Ikea Kwano back, which, you know,
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: I've been, I've been hoping for Ikea Kwano to come back.
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: You know, that, that, that to me sounds like, you know,
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: will he come back first or will the three Hornets
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: who were injured come back first?
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: I'm not sure. It kind of feels like a, or will.
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: Flounder find a scenario where Flounder get a girlfriend? You
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: know what I mean? These are all things that just
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: feel so far away. We just said we're trying to
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: help the guy one hour ago. Oh, yeah, I forgot
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: about that. My bad.
• 7:03
  Speaker 4: I forgot we were trying to be positive about that.
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: Point being, I expect a response. I do think that
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: the problem that I'm seeing here is that while we
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: did spend a lot of money for front-line players on
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: the defensive side of the football, particularly at the linebacker position,
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: this really was the first year where Dan Morgan fully
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: made investments in the defensive side of the football.
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: And unfortunately.
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: The thing that's becoming glaring is that there's not a
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: lot of depth behind that frontline talent. And that's unfortunately
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: where the Panthers have struggled to try and stop the run.
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: And in the games where they've not played as efficiently defensively,
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: where they've had their issues.
• 7:41
  Speaker 5: William Texter wants to know if you're fully recovered yet
• 7:45
  Speaker 5: from the beating that caller Johnny gave you at Smoke
• 7:48
  Speaker 5: on the postgame show on Sunday.
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: Johnny didn't beat me. I didn't do anything.
• 7:52
  Speaker 3: You and Smoke did a great tag team effort. I
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: don't agree with that. I love that, Pete. Texter thinks
• 7:56
  Speaker 3: that Johnny got one.
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: Over on you. please johnny's my light work i don't
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: care um johnny johnny is a frustrated man who thinks
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: he has some sort of entitlement because he has his
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: name on one of the the stone panthers outside look
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: i i.
• 8:12
  Speaker 4: Well that changes everything i'm on johnny's side now i'm
• 8:16
  Speaker 4: just kidding.
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: To accuse us of being quote owned by the panthers
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: that's lame i i have I've ripped the defensive coordinator
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: to shreds. I'm not necessarily the biggest fan of the
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: man who's the head coach. I've said plenty of things
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: that could be construed as critical in terms of the
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: way that this team is organized and put together. It's
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: far from a perfect team. I want them to win.
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: I want to see them do well. And maybe that
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: kind of clouds the way that I think about things.
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: And I try to be an eternal optimist. But at
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: the same point in time, when it goes bad, I
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: call it out. It was bad on Sunday. Terrible.
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: Pathetic. It was unacceptably bad.
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: On Luke Keegly Day, that's the effort you put out?
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: Absolutely it needs to be called out.
• 8:58
  Speaker 5: Willie, what was wrong with Weatherman Mark on the text
• 9:00
  Speaker 5: line during the postgame show? He said he was retired
• 9:03
  Speaker 5: from texting. What was going on with him that day?
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: His thing– see, this is the problem, okay? Weatherman Mark
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: is taking me out of context because of what I
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: would say when it comes to a Giro Evero, like,
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: I think you can be of two schools of thought.
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: You could say that the defensive coordinator is not working,
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: but firing him now, firing him today, does absolutely nothing
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: for you because they're either going to put one of
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: his lieutenants up there and they're going to run the
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: same darn stuff or it's going to be a complete disaster.
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: You can't make a defensive scheme change in the middle
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: of the year when the personnel you have to run
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: the scheme is currently on the roster. If you're going
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: to make the kind of change that people in Panther
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: fans are wanting to make, it will have to take
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: place in the offseason and it will have to be seismic.
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: Like you're talking about turning over a sizable portion of
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: this roster because whether you believe so or not, the
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: personnel they have is to run this scheme. It's not
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: like they have the personnel to run a completely different
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: scheme that they're going to completely, you know, torpedo in
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: the middle of the season and change. If, if, if
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: you want your pound of flesh and as you're ever
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: all getting fired, guess what? You're going to see Jonathan
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: Cooley or one of the other assistants up there and
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: they'd be running the same darn stuff. So I, I,
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: I understand it's, you know, it almost kind of feels
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: like in baseball when you want to change the hitting coach.
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: To me, it does nothing.
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: So, you know, I can sit here and say I
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: want to see a different thing on defense, but it
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: probably ain't going to come until next year at the
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: Absolute Sooners.
• 10:29
  Speaker 4: I'll tell you, I really hope Averro does not run
• 10:31
  Speaker 4: that scheme, Bone, where he tells everybody to run away
• 10:35
  Speaker 4: from the ball carrier.
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: I hope, like, that's what they ran against Tampa.
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: Oh, stop it, Mr. I Defend, Juju Averro, whatever you
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: want to call it.
• 10:42
  Speaker 4: I'm just saying it's so funny. Everybody's a defensive scheme expert. Like,
• 10:45
  Speaker 4: listen to what Brenton Buckner said on the show yesterday.
• 10:48
  Speaker 4: Like people like that. Again, if this happens over and
• 10:51
  Speaker 4: over again, a zero of arrow will be fired in
• 10:54
  Speaker 4: the off season and they will make a change and
• 10:56
  Speaker 4: it will be deserved at that point. But like for
• 10:58
  Speaker 4: everybody to act like they know exactly that it was schematics,
• 11:02
  Speaker 4: why they couldn't stop the run against the bears. Sometimes
• 11:05
  Speaker 4: your big guys are getting their ass kicked by the
• 11:08
  Speaker 4: big guys on the other team.
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: You know, that happens too. And I agree with that.
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: Well, that's where I challenge people to say, yes, you
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: could be angry with the coordinator, but don't stop there.
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: Don't stop short at the coordinator. Say the players deserve
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: some responsibility and culpability too. I think it's, It's the
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: whole operation right now that's inefficient.
• 11:27
  Speaker 3: And here's the thing.
• 11:28
  Speaker 4: In between, you know, the three games prior, they had
• 11:31
  Speaker 4: the third-best run defense in the league in terms of
• 11:33
  Speaker 4: yards per game. So it's like it's not every damn week,
• 11:36
  Speaker 4: but my God, year three of Canales, they should be
• 11:39
  Speaker 4: past games that look like that. Like, they should be passed.
• 11:42
  Speaker 4: That was year one crap, man. They should be passed
• 11:45
  Speaker 4: that garbage. I think we accept losses. Getting your teeth
• 11:48
  Speaker 4: kicked in like that is unacceptable.
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: Yeah, the way they lost, man, is ridiculous.
• 11:52
  Speaker 5: I'll be a loser, but I'm not being a loser
• 11:54
  Speaker 5: getting beat by that much. No, no, you don't want
• 11:55
  Speaker 5: to be that big of a loser. I'll be a loser. P-Man,
• 12:00
  Speaker 5: how do you feel about this?
• 12:01
  Speaker 4: Multiple texters are now, since I brought up the Trailer
• 12:04
  Speaker 4: Park Thomas, go after Dan Morgan because he didn't make
• 12:07
  Speaker 4: any trades yesterday with Colts. We've got people bringing up
• 12:10
  Speaker 4: DeForest Buckner, who I would have been very interested in
• 12:13
  Speaker 4: acquiring because I think you saw on Sunday they could
• 12:16
  Speaker 4: use interior defensive line help. But also, Quentin Nelson, do
• 12:21
  Speaker 4: you feel like Dan Morgan, I feel like we've got
• 12:23
  Speaker 4: to get to the trade deadline and then judge what
• 12:26
  Speaker 4: he does or doesn't do then. But did you find
• 12:28
  Speaker 4: yourself upset they didn't give up a fourth trade? or
• 12:31
  Speaker 4: better for Buckner or didn't. I mean, a third and
• 12:34
  Speaker 4: a fifth for a rental of Quentin Nelson. I'm not
• 12:37
  Speaker 4: sure the Panthers were going to do that. What do
• 12:38
  Speaker 4: you think?
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: Seems rich. It's a rich price to pay. And look,
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: my issue is where the Panthers currently sit. I think
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: you have to kind of figure out and get a
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: more firm timeline on when JC and Mike Jack are
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: back to where, okay, that's as close as you're going
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: to get the full strength. So you can fully assess
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: where your needs are because I know that the The
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: knee-jerk reaction is, I'll go out and trade for a corner. Well,
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: you might get two corners back here within a month.
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: And then you're sitting there with a position where you've
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: taken away draft assets and basically overloaded a position when
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: you have other places that could potentially.
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: Be fixed.
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: Now, it comes out that JC and or Mike Jack
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: has a setback. Maybe they're not necessarily available until December.
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: Maybe you go out and you make a move for
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: a corner. So I think, unfortunately, they're having to feel
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: like they have to tread water right now with this
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: position to at least assess where their greatest needs align.
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: I think their greatest need, like you said, is probably
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: on the interior defensive line. There really isn't a lot
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: beyond the top three in Lee Hunter to really make
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: a difference in the run game. Still feel like pass
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: rush and outside linebacker could be addressed as well, particularly
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: with the injuries to Jalen Phillips and Thomas Inkoom. And also,
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: you know, a linebacker as a reserve behind Devin Lloyd
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: and Bobby Okereke could be good as well. It's a
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: lot of different things that I feel like this defense
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: could need Unfortunately, it's hard to plug eight holes when
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: you really only have a couple of bullets you can
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: be able to use.
• 14:06
  Speaker 5: Willie, before you do your swine, can I nominate my
• 14:09
  Speaker 5: own swine right now on the text line? This guy,
• 14:11
  Speaker 5: NASCAR brawl. I thought we were safe. what the celebration
• 14:17
  Speaker 5: of Muggsy Bogues and what he meant as a human,
• 14:20
  Speaker 5: as a player, that era, everything that Muggsy Bogues represents.
• 14:25
  Speaker 5: I thought we were safe in celebrating one Tyrone Muggsy Bogues.
• 14:30
  Speaker 5: NASCAR brawl does not think Muggsy did enough to have
• 14:33
  Speaker 5: his jersey retired by the Charlotte Hornets. He didn't do
• 14:38
  Speaker 5: enough on the court compared to LaMelo Ball.
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: I'll get out of here.
• 14:44
  Speaker 5: Franchise impact. No doubt Muncie's higher than Lomelo Ball.
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: I just want to hear Josh say his name.
• 14:52
  Speaker 3: Oh, Marwa? Yeah, go ahead. Give it a whirl there, Finny.
• 14:56
  Speaker 3: You talking about Muggsy Bogues? You ought to be the one.
• 15:01
  Speaker 4: I'm sorry, EC, but I'd like Finney to be the
• 15:04
  Speaker 4: one to announce Muggsy when he gets his jersey retired
• 15:07
  Speaker 4: because Finney trying to pronounce that name is classic, baby.
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: Just classic.
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: Is that Lancaster English or what?
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: All right. We're not questioning Muggsy. No, get out of here.
• 15:20
  Speaker 3: That's Charlotte royalty, sir.
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: Now, I will say I saw some people angry about
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: the fact that it was Kemba and not Muggsy next,
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: but If Dell was going to get his Denver in
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: the rafters, Muggsy was always going to get it.
• 15:30
  Speaker 3: It doesn't mean Kemba's not going up there.
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: He will.
• 15:32
  Speaker 3: How long did it take for these jerseys to get retired?
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: Forever.
• 15:36
  Speaker 3: It's overdue, man.
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: It's like the Pro Football Hall of Fame. There's a line,
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: as Darren Gant would say.
• 15:42
  Speaker 3: There's a line. Is that a Darren Gant? It's Darren Gant.
• 15:47
  Speaker 4: He does a weatherman mark and a Darren Gant.
• 15:49
  Speaker 3: Willie P's good, man. People want to hear you do
• 15:51
  Speaker 3: the weatherman mark, Willie.
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: I'll tell you guys, I just can't seem to understand
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: why we have this coordinator. Who continues to torpedo this team?
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: P-Man, my timbers are shivered.
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: My turbines are all over the place.
• 16:12
  Speaker 4: P-Man, I wanted to, before you go, I want to
• 16:15
  Speaker 4: apologize to you. That's very good, by the way. I
• 16:17
  Speaker 4: want to apologize to you. We can't control what some
• 16:22
  Speaker 4: of the mouthy children of our listeners are might say,
• 16:26
  Speaker 4: Willie P. And we were very hurt last week to
• 16:30
  Speaker 4: read that Coach Kev's son.
• 16:33
  Speaker 3: Took a shot at you.
• 16:35
  Speaker 4: And I certainly do not want any other texters to
• 16:38
  Speaker 4: text in right now and let us know if their
• 16:41
  Speaker 4: children say anything when they hear Willie P.
• 16:43
  Speaker 3: On the air.
• 16:43
  Speaker 4: I would not want that to happen again at 704-5709-610.
• 16:47
  Speaker 4: I'm sorry about that, P-Man.
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: You're such a charitable individual, aren't you?
• 16:53
  Speaker 3: All right, who's your swine?
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: You have the innate ability to make an apology and
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: then completely veto the apology.
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: He's one of the worst.
• 17:03
  Speaker 3: Apology guys in the business. Because I make you think
• 17:07
  Speaker 3: I'm sincere, and then I just... Yeah, he's never been
• 17:09
  Speaker 3: sincere once.
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: I just want to say to Chris Simms, Have we
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: located your spleen at any point in time here? It
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: might be because your spleen is missing while you continue
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: to have this negativity toward the Carolina Panthers and a
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: lack of objectivity. And look, I understand that objectivity in
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: this business has probably gone out the wayside.
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: But also, I don't like Florio. Florio used to be
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: boys with y'all, no? Florio's taking shots now?
• 17:36
  Speaker 3: He was.
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: You used to pay Florio for the pleasure of coming
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: out and spending the morning with you, and now he
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: takes this shot?
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: Come on, guys. Be better.
• 17:46
  Speaker 3: It's annoying. It really is annoying.
• 17:48
  Speaker 4: All right, P-Man, you rock, baby. Have a good call tonight.
• 17:52
  Speaker 4: So what is the broadcast schedule?
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: Florio's out there in West Virginia where they just got internet.
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: It's okay.
• 17:57
  Speaker 4: What's the broadcast schedule tonight, right? Because we got Hornets
• 18:00
  Speaker 4: and FC. So where do we find FC tonight?
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: We are on the blowtorch, the 5,000 watts of beautiful
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: 1079 FM WBT.
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: Awesome. 1079 WBT. Very excited for that. Uh, happy to, uh,
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: to be with you.
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: Uh, thank you again to our friends over at WBT
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: for giving us the space this evening and hopefully we
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: get a playoff clincher.
• 18:21
  Speaker 3: Awesome, man. All right. Have fun tonight on the call.
• 18:23
  Speaker 3: I'll be, uh, I'll be listening, man. Appreciate you.
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: We need you in the building.
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: I know.
• 18:27
  Speaker 4: I got to get back to the building. I think
• 18:29
  Speaker 4: I might wait for the playoffs.
• 18:32
  Speaker 3: Is that wrong? I'm waiting for the playoffs.
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: Mac Jr.
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: Is too old to trick or treat. So, you know,
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: come Saturday.
• 18:39
  Speaker 4: Oh, they want to go out anyway. He got like
• 18:41
  Speaker 4: a pizza slice costume. It's the lamest costume ever. He's
• 18:44
  Speaker 4: a senior in high school and he wants to go out.
• 18:46
  Speaker 3: I know, it's ridiculous. He's going as a pizza slice?
• 18:49
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a pizza slice, a pepperoni pizza slice. It
• 18:52
  Speaker 4: is the lamest damn pasta.
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: If I at 6'3 can look you straight in the face,
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: you should not be trick-or-treating.
• 19:00
  Speaker 3: If you pull up in a car, you're not getting
• 19:03
  Speaker 3: my candy. That's true. I should ask him. You going
• 19:05
  Speaker 3: to try to drive around door to door? Hey, sir,
• 19:07
  Speaker 3: where do I park? How about you park somewhere else?
• 19:09
  Speaker 3: I'm not giving you candy.
• 19:11
  Speaker 4: We had a dude with a full-blown mustache last year trick-or-treating, bro.
• 19:15
  Speaker 2: He's going to walk up and say, can I hold
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: some candy, bro?
• 19:18
  Speaker 3: Can I hold some candy, bro? Weatherman Mark has replied.
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: Tell me that doesn't sound like Mac Jr.
• 19:24
  Speaker 5: That's totally ice cold talk. Weatherman Mark has replied. With
• 19:29
  Speaker 5: some vitriol towards you, at least my briskets are not dry. Oh!
• 19:35
  Speaker 3: God.
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: How do we know that your brisket is not dry? No!
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: And we don't necessarily think that mine are. Hey. Brisket
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: just doesn't photograph well.
• 19:45
  Speaker 3: It's fine.
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: It's the biggest myth in WFNZ history.
• 19:49
  Speaker 3: His turbines are spinning, though, man.
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 19:51
  Speaker 3: And his timbers are not shivered right now. All right, P,
• 19:53
  Speaker 3: you the man. We'll talk to you, P. Be good.
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: My timbers are shivered, I'll tell you.
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 19:59
  Speaker 3: There you go. Weatherman P is out on that note.
