- 0:18Speaker 1: All right, y'all.
- 0:19Speaker 2: Sports Radio 92.7 WFNZ.
- 0:22Speaker 3: Mack and Bone with you.
- 0:23Speaker 2: Hopefully your Thursday's off to a good start. Seems like
- 0:27Speaker 2: rain again. We're in our cave. It could be raining
- 0:28Speaker 2: right now. I don't even know. But seems like that's
- 0:31Speaker 2: what we're getting again today. This Moorhead here was flooding
- 0:37Speaker 2: bone yesterday.
- 0:38Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 0:39Speaker 3: You could go. There was also.
- 0:40Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 0:41Speaker 2: Was there something down on the road? There was something
- 0:43Speaker 2: had fallen down in the.
- 0:44Speaker 4: Road, too.
- 0:45Speaker 3: I didn't go that way. That was like blocking the road.
- 0:47Speaker 3: He informed me because we were I was like 11.
- 0:51Speaker 3: He said the road is the way we go. It's closed,
- 0:54Speaker 3: so I didn't even go there.
- 0:55Speaker 5: I don't know.
- 0:55Speaker 2: Yeah, I turned down that way, and there was like,
- 0:57Speaker 2: I'm like, what is that laying in the road or whatever?
- 0:59Speaker 2: But anyway, we got the road back to normal here
- 1:02Speaker 2: by the station. It was a Falcons fan. Oh, my God.
- 1:08Speaker 2: They were just, end me.
- 1:10Speaker 4: Run me over. Do it.
- 1:12Speaker 3: And then Devin Loy came with his car, and they're like, oh, no.
- 1:16Speaker 6: Oh, man.
- 1:17Speaker 2: Hey, I had a great experience. We're getting ready to
- 1:19Speaker 2: do Talking Heads, Talking Bryce. A bunch of national media
- 1:22Speaker 2: members raving about Bryce, giving their opinions about where he
- 1:26Speaker 2: was in his career, where he is now, how he
- 1:28Speaker 2: got here. It's all kind of good stuff. to listen
- 1:30Speaker 2: to with his red hot start, knock on wood. Hopefully
- 1:33Speaker 2: it will continue in Cleveland this week. I'm sure this
- 1:36Speaker 2: is relatable to anybody that does sports trash talk at
- 1:40Speaker 2: the office. Anybody that's got buddies and coworkers, right, that
- 1:43Speaker 2: work for another team or root for another team.
- 1:45Speaker 3: And Tampa Tammy is that fan. That fan that.
- 1:50Speaker 2: Talks so much trash bone most of the time, but
- 1:54Speaker 2: when something horrendous happens, like her bucks losing to the Browns,
- 2:00Speaker 2: you cannot find her.
- 2:01Speaker 3: I saw her walk into the hallway, chased her down
- 2:04Speaker 3: and said, Hey, what?
- 2:05Speaker 5: Yeah. Hey, Hey.
- 2:06Speaker 2: And she sprinted out the door. She is terrified, Bone,
- 2:12Speaker 2: to have any conversation with us this week.
- 2:14Speaker 3: I meant to do this yesterday. Yeah, I mean, she
- 2:16Speaker 3: was like Jackie Joyner-Kersee hurtling through the halls. I meant
- 2:19Speaker 3: to do this yesterday. I am going to go. There's
- 2:22Speaker 3: a screen down when you walk in here of all
- 2:25Speaker 3: the TV employees in the building on air, off air.
- 2:28Speaker 3: I'm going to take a look. a photo of her
- 2:32Speaker 3: photo and then print it out. And I'm going to
- 2:35Speaker 3: post it in the TV area that if you've seen
- 2:38Speaker 3: this missing person, please let us know. That'll be gold.
- 2:41Speaker 3: Wanted for sports. That will be gold. Sports, whatever. Yeah.
- 2:45Speaker 3: Oh God.
- 2:46Speaker 2: A texter says y'all better watch it though. We play
- 2:48Speaker 2: the Browns this week.
- 2:49Speaker 3: That's true. That is true. It is risky, but I
- 2:53Speaker 3: believe in my boys. I believe in my boys.
- 2:55Speaker 2: All right. Let's let's talk. Let's let you hear what
- 2:58Speaker 2: the talking heads are. are saying about Bryce Young. Former players, podcasters,
- 3:04Speaker 2: former players turned podcasters, former teammates of Bryce, Adam Thielen's
- 3:08Speaker 2: in here. But let's start with one, Colin Cowherd, who
- 3:11Speaker 2: actually said something, Bone, I like. I like what he
- 3:13Speaker 2: had to say here about Bryce Young, talking about the
- 3:17Speaker 2: importance of two dudes in particular here in Carolina in
- 3:22Speaker 2: setting the tone for Bryce and his emergence.
- 3:26Speaker 7: Bryce Young, you thought he was a bust two years ago.
- 3:28Speaker 7: But the GM, Dan Morgan, sharp guy. And Dave Canales,
- 3:32Speaker 7: sharp guy. Over the last two years, this is now
- 3:35Speaker 7: an offensive culture. He's got an NBA team at tight
- 3:38Speaker 7: end and wide receiver. They are huge.
- 3:41Speaker 4: Gigantic.
- 3:42Speaker 7: Xavier Leguette, 6'3. Coker, 6'3. T-Max, 6'5. Darren Waller, 6'6.
- 3:48Speaker 7: Last 10 games for Bryce Young, more touchdown passes than
- 3:52Speaker 7: Josh Allen.
- 3:55Speaker 1: I didn't even have that one, Bozy. I didn't even
- 4:00Speaker 1: have that stat. But you can bet I'm going to
- 4:02Speaker 1: repeat that one this week.
- 4:04Speaker 6: Oh, that needs to be the new last 10 games
- 4:05Speaker 6: from two years ago and the last eight games from
- 4:08Speaker 6: last year.
- 4:08Speaker 4: That's the new stat.
- 4:10Speaker 3: You see what he did?
- 4:10Speaker 2: He just added on to the last eight games from
- 4:12Speaker 2: last year. Why didn't I think of that, Finney?
- 4:14Speaker 3: Finney, can you play the very beginning of Cowherd one
- 4:17Speaker 3: more time and then I want to go John Madden here,
- 4:19Speaker 3: but then freeze it after the intro. I'm going to
- 4:21Speaker 3: tell you when to freeze it, okay?
- 4:23Speaker 7: Bryce Young, you thought he was a bust two years ago.
- 4:25Speaker 8: Freeze it.
- 4:26Speaker 3: People pointing out that Colin Cowherd also two years ago
- 4:30Speaker 3: called Bryce Young a bust.
- 4:31Speaker 4: That's fair.
- 4:32Speaker 3: That's fair. I had my whole thing with Bryce, and
- 4:35Speaker 3: when he got back, I understand that. But Colin Cowherd, literally, Mac,
- 4:38Speaker 3: has said before that Bryce Young is a bust. Now
- 4:41Speaker 3: he says, you all thought Bryce was a bust.
- 4:43Speaker 8: No, sir.
- 4:44Speaker 3: You did also. By the way, that is true.
- 4:47Speaker 2: It was literally two weeks ago this week that we
- 4:50Speaker 2: both said we might have to trade Bryce Young the
- 4:52Speaker 2: best for him and for us. Because remember, it was
- 4:55Speaker 2: after two games he got benched. It's a two-year anniversary
- 4:59Speaker 2: of us giving up on Bryce. What were we thinking? Mac,
- 5:02Speaker 2: I may have compared him to Sam Bowie at one point. Oh,
- 5:04Speaker 2: my God. And you never want that Sam Bowie comparison.
- 5:08Speaker 2: All right, let's keep it going here. I was young.
- 5:12Speaker 2: I didn't know what was going on. Now, here's a guy, Bone,
- 5:14Speaker 2: that has been backing Bryce on his Greenlight podcast. Former
- 5:18Speaker 2: D-lineman in the NFL, Chris Long. So he's kind of
- 5:21Speaker 2: bragging a little bit that a guy that he's been
- 5:23Speaker 2: backing in Bryce Young has reached– what appears to be
- 5:27Speaker 2: a different level.
- 5:29Speaker 9: He looks like Joe Montana out there, dude. Let me
- 5:33Speaker 9: take a little victory lap, like a tiny little victory
- 5:36Speaker 9: lap on my dog Bryce Young because he's playing himself
- 5:40Speaker 9: into being the franchise quarterback for Carolina. I love this guy.
- 5:45Speaker 9: I compared him last week, and I'm not going to
- 5:47Speaker 9: do the poor man's thing because people take that personally,
- 5:50Speaker 9: but if you want like when Bo was asking me
- 5:53Speaker 9: who Bryce reminds me of Of all the greats, if
- 5:59Speaker 9: there's one guy I'm like, he's got some of that
- 6:01Speaker 9: in him, it's Shrew Breeze. He's a shorter quarterback. He's
- 6:04Speaker 9: got good vision. He can throw on the move well.
- 6:07Speaker 9: He's got a nice quick release. The arm strength isn't elite, but, boy,
- 6:11Speaker 9: does he dot people on the sidelines, the outbreakers. Every
- 6:15Speaker 9: area of the field, he can make the throws.
- 6:18Speaker 3: So, Max, so far we've done this segment now for
- 6:20Speaker 3: two and a half minutes. We've got Joe Montana, Josh Allen,
- 6:23Speaker 3: and Drew Brees. Oh, we are rolling, baby.
- 6:26Speaker 4: We are rolling.
- 6:27Speaker 1: I need an autograph in here at some point. Oh,
- 6:30Speaker 1: this is amazing, man.
- 6:31Speaker 3: I've never seen you smile more than you are right now.
- 6:33Speaker 2: Joe Montana and Drew Brees. Might be a little rich,
- 6:37Speaker 2: but I'll take it. What the hell? I'll take it, man.
- 6:40Speaker 2: Quick correction. Fetty might need to get the mop out. Apparently,
- 6:43Speaker 2: I said, Bone, two weeks ago this week, is when
- 6:48Speaker 2: we said that Bryce Young might be a trade and
- 6:51Speaker 2: a change of scenery.
- 6:52Speaker 3: Two years ago this week is what I was trying
- 6:54Speaker 3: to say.
- 6:54Speaker 2: Hopefully most of you speak Macanese and understand what I
- 6:58Speaker 2: meant is trying to say.
- 7:00Speaker 3: I got it. I speak fluid Macanese.
- 7:02Speaker 2: That's what I need from y'all is to just figure
- 7:04Speaker 2: out on your own what the heck this old man
- 7:07Speaker 2: was trying to talk about.
- 7:07Speaker 3: Max understands me. He's got a Rosetta bone. It's a
- 7:10Speaker 3: whole thing of my life. Oh, God.
- 7:13Speaker 6: Matt, to that point, though, think about how different we
- 7:15Speaker 6: are in this week three compared to the last two years.
- 7:19Speaker 6: Two years ago, Bryce gets benched. What was week three
- 7:22Speaker 6: last year? 0-2 start, home game against Atlanta. It felt
- 7:27Speaker 6: like so much was riding on that game for the team.
- 7:29Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 7:30Speaker 4: But for the quarterback individually.
- 7:32Speaker 3: Because he was turning it over those first two weeks.
- 7:34Speaker 3: Big time.
- 7:35Speaker 6: And now he's Joe Montana Allen Breeze.
- 7:39Speaker 3: He's Joe Breeze Allen.
- 7:40Speaker 4: I got to tell you, Finney at 30 years old, professional.
- 7:46Speaker 3: Great points. Dare I say matured already.
- 7:48Speaker 2: Oh, our little boy growing up on his 30th birthday, y'all.
- 7:51Speaker 2: All right, let's keep the talking heads talking Bryce going
- 7:55Speaker 2: here on the Mac and Bone show. What are they
- 7:58Speaker 2: saying out there? Let's go. Let's go local talking head
- 8:01Speaker 2: because I this was pointed out in the broadcast the
- 8:04Speaker 2: other day and I forgot to talk about this. Something
- 8:08Speaker 2: subtle that Bryce is doing to get guys open downfield.
- 8:13Speaker 2: Jake DeLome is better equipped to explain it. This is
- 8:16Speaker 2: Jake on the handoff. He and Jonathan Stewart do this
- 8:19Speaker 2: on Panthers.com every week.
- 8:21Speaker 3: Listen to this.
- 8:22Speaker 11: The thing that maybe I'm enjoying more than anything is
- 8:26Speaker 11: that when we do have the play action and he
- 8:29Speaker 11: gets his head around quick, He's manipulating the defense with
- 8:32Speaker 11: shoulder shrugs. And what I mean by that is the
- 8:34Speaker 11: subtle movement where it's not pump fakes where he's taking
- 8:38Speaker 11: his hand off the ball.
- 8:40Speaker 3: He's dropping back.
- 8:41Speaker 4: He fakes. He turns.
- 8:42Speaker 11: And a couple of times the other day, we had
- 8:44Speaker 11: T-Mac on these.
- 8:45Speaker 4: Corner routes, and he's wide open.
- 8:48Speaker 11: And Coker, but he's given us eye movement to the
- 8:52Speaker 11: flat defender and it's a shoulder like, OK, this is
- 8:55Speaker 11: where I'm throwing it. And just that little movement and
- 8:58Speaker 11: eyes because it's own coverage, their eyes.
- 9:00Speaker 4: On the quarterback, the cornerbacks breaking and they're coming up.
- 9:03Speaker 11: And there's just this huge trough, the huge cavity between
- 9:06Speaker 11: the corner and the safety and then.
- 9:08Speaker 4: He throws it right in the hole.
- 9:12Speaker 2: Now, don't throw that football in a trough, though, because
- 9:13Speaker 2: that thing could be awful messy when you get it
- 9:15Speaker 2: out of there. But it's a great point, and they
- 9:18Speaker 2: pointed it out on broadcast. That little shoulder fake, not
- 9:21Speaker 2: a full pump, but a little shoulder fake, corner jumps up, boom,
- 9:25Speaker 2: over the top, into that little hole in the zone
- 9:27Speaker 2: coverage corner route. He did it multiple times. And by
- 9:30Speaker 2: the way, to that point, Bone, there's going to be
- 9:34Speaker 2: an interesting challenge this week because the Browns have played
- 9:36Speaker 2: the most man coverage ever. In the NFL, the first
- 9:39Speaker 2: two weeks, the Panthers have only faced 18% man coverage.
- 9:43Speaker 2: And Bryce has been feasting on zone coverage, 75%, 12.7
- 9:47Speaker 2: yards per attempt. Against man coverage, and it's only been 18%
- 9:52Speaker 2: of the time in the first two games, 40% completion percentage,
- 9:56Speaker 2: 4.4 yards per attempt.
- 9:58Speaker 3: So this is going to be a new challenge.
- 10:00Speaker 7: Boney.
- 10:00Speaker 2: It does not look good against the man. It's been
- 10:02Speaker 2: zone heavy the first two games. You're probably going to
- 10:05Speaker 2: get a ton of man from.
- 10:05Speaker 3: The Cleveland Browns. This will be a tougher challenge. I
- 10:08Speaker 3: don't know if this is obvious, but a tougher challenge,
- 10:11Speaker 3: I think, than what Atlanta put out there last week,
- 10:14Speaker 3: where they basically didn't even, you know, they had no
- 10:17Speaker 3: defense going into the game, no defense during the game.
- 10:20Speaker 3: I think the Panthers can overcome the challenge, but I
- 10:23Speaker 3: think it's going to be a little bit more difficult
- 10:25Speaker 3: than the resistance that Atlanta didn't put up last week.
- 10:28Speaker 2: I know we like to make fun of the Browns,
- 10:30Speaker 2: the Clowns. What does Mike Tomlin say? The Browns is
- 10:33Speaker 2: the Browns.
- 10:34Speaker 3: That whole thing.
- 10:35Speaker 2: But, like, I think this is the best defense we
- 10:38Speaker 2: will have faced. I'm not on here acting like they're great.
- 10:41Speaker 2: We got to be scared of them. I do think
- 10:43Speaker 2: the fact that they're going to play probably more man
- 10:45Speaker 2: is a different challenge, though, because Bryce had looked real
- 10:48Speaker 2: comfortable against these zones. But I do think they're the
- 10:51Speaker 2: best defense. I don't think we faced a good defense yet.
- 10:54Speaker 2: I will be honest and throw that out there. Bone,
- 10:57Speaker 2: you had to know this was coming. 704 number says,
- 11:01Speaker 2: you guys celebrate this while it's lasting. It's a two-week sample, y'all.
- 11:06Speaker 2: There's no guarantee this continues with Bryce. I knew Captain
- 11:10Speaker 2: Killjoy was going to pull up a chair.
- 11:12Speaker 3: But if they started 0-2 against these opponents, would the
- 11:17Speaker 3: detractors of, say, Canales, of Bryce, of Morgan, of whoever,
- 11:23Speaker 3: would they say it's a small sample, or would they
- 11:25Speaker 3: use that as fire Canales, fire Avero, which obviously week
- 11:30Speaker 3: one was a big deal with that. Bryce isn't going
- 11:32Speaker 3: to make it. So it's a small sample when things
- 11:35Speaker 3: go well, but yet if things went bad, would you
- 11:38Speaker 3: all be saying that?
- 11:39Speaker 4: Probably not, right? Yeah, it's true.
- 11:40Speaker 2: Everybody's got their own like preconceived notions about Bryce.
- 11:44Speaker 6: Do we need to replay the Cowherd cut? Last 10 games,
- 11:49Speaker 6: more touchdowns than Josh Allen.
- 11:51Speaker 3: 10-game sample, sir.
- 11:52Speaker 4: That's not a small sample size.
- 11:53Speaker 3: 10-game sample. And the one thing, Finney, you know this well, Mac,
- 11:56Speaker 3: the one thing we do on this show, we trust
- 11:58Speaker 3: the good word of Colin Cowher.
- 11:59Speaker 2: We clearly always have, always have. Now, I like my
- 12:02Speaker 2: guy Brown Mustard's text better, Bone.
- 12:04Speaker 10: Who?
- 12:05Speaker 3: He says, man, this Bryce talk will give you a footballgasm.
- 12:08Speaker 3: I'm sorry? Hey, now. Jeez, settle down, Brown Mustard.
- 12:11Speaker 4: Nobody likes brown mustard.
- 12:12Speaker 3: All right.
- 12:13Speaker 2: Except the texter. I love the texter, though. I don't
- 12:16Speaker 2: like yellow mustard. Let's get to some more here. You're
- 12:18Speaker 2: an anti-mustard man, Bo?
- 12:19Speaker 3: Except for honey. Oh, the honey mustard. You put honey
- 12:22Speaker 3: in there, I'm in.
- 12:23Speaker 2: All right, let's get to some more here. How about
- 12:25Speaker 2: a former teammate? A guy that caught passes, a ton
- 12:28Speaker 2: of them, from Bryce Young in his rookie season. Adam
- 12:31Speaker 2: Thielen on NFL Radio talking about Bryce and how he
- 12:36Speaker 2: just works and continues to improve.
- 12:39Speaker 8: Number one, Bryce just keeps getting better.
- 12:42Speaker 4: Every game, every week, every year.
- 12:44Speaker 8: And it's the thing that I respected so much about
- 12:48Speaker 8: Bryce when I was around him is he doesn't care
- 12:51Speaker 8: what people are saying about him, what the team thinks
- 12:54Speaker 8: about him. He just goes to work. And he focuses
- 12:58Speaker 8: on what he can control. He is a guy who
- 13:02Speaker 8: is so hard on himself and expects so much out
- 13:06Speaker 8: of himself that every single day he holds himself to
- 13:08Speaker 8: a high standard And what I've noticed about some of
- 13:11Speaker 8: the best to ever play this game is that's how
- 13:13Speaker 8: they are. They are harder on themselves than the coaches
- 13:16Speaker 8: can be. And the other side of it is Dave Canales, right?
- 13:20Speaker 8: He knows exactly what he wants from his team, what
- 13:23Speaker 8: he wants it to look like. And when you're in
- 13:25Speaker 8: that team meeting room every single day, like you feel that,
- 13:28Speaker 8: you know exactly his expectations, what he wants to see
- 13:32Speaker 8: from an offense, from a defense, from an individual perspective.
- 13:36Speaker 8: And you can respect that so much.
- 13:37Speaker 3: And that's coming to fruition on the field.
- 13:40Speaker 2: I love that man. And that's a guy that would know, right?
- 13:42Speaker 2: He played with rookie Bryce. He can see what's different now.
- 13:45Speaker 2: He knows Bryce's work ethic and that sort of thing.
- 13:48Speaker 2: I'm going to call this segment, I need a cigarette
- 13:50Speaker 2: during the break.
- 13:50Speaker 3: I might put on a smoking jacket if I had one.
- 13:54Speaker 2: Now, Bone, the texters are now mad at two different
- 13:56Speaker 2: things here. First of all, the texters are mad at
- 14:00Speaker 2: small sample guy. The guy that said, it's a small
- 14:03Speaker 2: sample for Bryce. Talk to me later.
- 14:05Speaker 4: You never want to have a small sample.
- 14:08Speaker 3: Lemonhead Johnson says, gotta be effing kidding me. A small sample?
- 14:13Speaker 2: You have five, six games from last year, especially the
- 14:16Speaker 2: last four, when it's the same offensive line and the
- 14:19Speaker 2: same offense in general. Another texter says, small sample my
- 14:24Speaker 2: rear end. The second half of the year last year
- 14:26Speaker 2: was some of the best football he has played. He's
- 14:29Speaker 2: never gotten off to a fast start. Now he's off
- 14:32Speaker 2: to one of the hottest starts in the league. Pardon
- 14:34Speaker 2: us if we're going to celebrate. And that's the thing, too.
- 14:37Speaker 2: Do I think he could keep this exact pace bone,
- 14:39Speaker 2: 51 touchdown pace?
- 14:42Speaker 3: Probably not.
- 14:43Speaker 2: But do I think that we're talking about a Bryce
- 14:47Speaker 2: Young season that is easily the best football he's ever
- 14:50Speaker 2: played when it's over?
- 14:50Speaker 8: Yeah, I do.
- 14:52Speaker 3: I definitely do.
- 14:52Speaker 2: More confidence, supporting cast and receiving core, growing, aging, maturing,
- 14:58Speaker 2: getting better, more comfort level with those guys. Darren Waller's
- 15:01Speaker 2: been added, and the Brad Idzik factor. All those things
- 15:05Speaker 2: to me make me think this is just different, man.
- 15:08Speaker 3: It's funny you bring up that pace there because right
- 15:10Speaker 3: now it is 51 touchdowns, eight INTs, 5,508-yard pace. NC
- 15:18Speaker 3: underscore Remy on Twitter, Mac, tweeted out yesterday, And it
- 15:22Speaker 3: went viral in some ways. If Bryce puts up those numbers.
- 15:26Speaker 3: he will get Bryce Young's face tattooed on his backside. Oh, yeah,
- 15:29Speaker 3: let's do that. Mark, save that one. Save that one there.
- 15:33Speaker 2: We also have, Bone, some people are mad about you
- 15:36Speaker 2: only liking— It's been bookmarked 11,000 times. There you go.
- 15:39Speaker 2: Get it, baby. People are mad because you say you
- 15:43Speaker 2: only like honey mustard. This dude says spicy mustard is
- 15:46Speaker 2: the way, Bone. Another texter says to love ketchup and
- 15:51Speaker 2: be anti-mustard is some communist crap.
- 15:55Speaker 3: Let me try to explain something here. You commie! You
- 15:59Speaker 3: commie pig! To the simpletons out there, I don't like
- 16:02Speaker 3: spicy mustard. If I don't like regular mustard and I
- 16:06Speaker 3: don't enjoy spicy things, why would you put them together
- 16:09Speaker 3: and I would enjoy that? So obviously, I'm not going
- 16:11Speaker 3: to like spicy mustard. It's common sense, but I don't
- 16:14Speaker 3: like spicy. I don't like mustard. I don't like the combo.
- 16:17Speaker 3: Move on with your day, sir. Let me mustard the
- 16:19Speaker 3: way I want, and it involves honey. Do you refute
- 16:22Speaker 3: the accusations of you being a communist? Do you refute those?
- 16:26Speaker 3: I don't know.
- 16:26Speaker 2: What's the link between mustard, ketchup, and communism?
- 16:29Speaker 3: It's a common link, obviously. I'm not familiar with that one.
- 16:32Speaker 3: How about you just let me condiment the way I
- 16:34Speaker 3: want to condiment? Is that possible? The condiment police try
- 16:39Speaker 3: to pull me over every day. Enough of that, all right?
- 16:41Speaker 2: How many dang officers are now in the Charlotte condiment
- 16:46Speaker 2: police force?
- 16:48Speaker 3: People also get mad that I don't like hot sauce,
- 16:51Speaker 3: and Texas Pete was literally in Winston, the building next
- 16:54Speaker 3: to my middle school. It was like 100 feet away.
- 16:58Speaker 3: But I don't like hot sauce. That is kind of funny.
- 17:01Speaker 3: How do you grow up next to Texas Pete? Well,
- 17:03Speaker 3: it doesn't matter if I don't like it. What's the matter?
- 17:05Speaker 3: You're a disgrace to your neighborhood, Bone. When we come back,
- 17:09Speaker 3: buy or sell college football edition. Which teams locally and
- 17:14Speaker 3: nationally are you buying into? And which ones are you
- 17:18Speaker 3: done with? Sports Radio 92.7 WFNZ.
- 17:47Speaker 10: Not to mention, five new starters on the O-line have
- 17:49Speaker 10: actually looked pretty darn good through three weeks. And he's
- 17:52Speaker 10: had time to throw, but Lenoris has not seen guys downfield.
- 17:55Speaker 10: He's not processing fast enough like you have to do
- 17:58Speaker 10: at an elite level in the SEC, say like Kamario
- 18:01Speaker 10: Taylor did Saturday night. So Lenoris, the last 15 or
- 18:04Speaker 10: so starts dating back to really that bowl game against
- 18:07Speaker 10: Illinois two years ago. Since they won six straight games
- 18:10Speaker 10: in the 2024 season, Lenores is not playing at that
- 18:14Speaker 10: confident level that he was. He's not running the football
- 18:17Speaker 10: as much. Maybe he's protecting his draft stock there, but
- 18:19Speaker 10: he's got to get better processing and finding guys downfield
- 18:23Speaker 10: for the Gamecocks.
- 18:25Speaker 3: Oh, man.
- 18:26Speaker 2: Brad Crawford, you know he knows that Gamecock program well.
- 18:29Speaker 2: That's him on Locked On SEC saying, hey, let's not
- 18:33Speaker 2: just give Beamer flack. Let's give Lenore Sellers flack. And
- 18:36Speaker 2: I noticed a couple of Gamecock fans bringing this up yesterday, too,
- 18:39Speaker 2: the processing. And I do think that has to be discussed, Bone.
- 18:44Speaker 2: He was getting good protection for most of the game,
- 18:47Speaker 2: still found a way to get sacked three times. And
- 18:50Speaker 2: I remember we defended him last year because of how
- 18:52Speaker 2: bad the O-line was, and you did have people saying, well,
- 18:55Speaker 2: hold on now. It's not all the O-line he holds
- 18:57Speaker 2: on to the football. Is it as simple as the
- 19:02Speaker 2: processing's not quick? I think a lot of people have
- 19:05Speaker 2: said that is it. Does he want to just hang
- 19:07Speaker 2: in there and I want to make a play, make
- 19:09Speaker 2: a play, and now I'm in here too late? but
- 19:11Speaker 2: there's definitely something going on there, Bone. Him in the
- 19:14Speaker 2: pocket with the football too damn long.
- 19:16Speaker 3: Reminds me a little bit of Sam Howell in that regard, too.
- 19:18Speaker 3: Remember Sam Howell? He went along and he got hyped
- 19:21Speaker 3: up before his last year, and then he was good,
- 19:25Speaker 3: but he never quite... There were still things in there,
- 19:27Speaker 3: even at the end, like holding onto the ball, not
- 19:30Speaker 3: getting rid of it in time. It is very similar...
- 19:32Speaker 3: to an experienced guy like Sam Howell who had similar problems.
- 19:36Speaker 4: Yeah, he did.
- 19:36Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a similar problem. I would say this, though.
- 19:38Speaker 2: If you could get Lenore Sellers to play like Sam Howell,
- 19:41Speaker 2: I think you would take that. Sam Howell is more
- 19:43Speaker 2: accomplished as a passer. I just mean it's a similar–
- 19:46Speaker 2: the decision-making's not quick enough to.
- 19:48Speaker 3: Get the ball out. It is, man. So anyway, I
- 19:51Speaker 3: don't know.
- 19:51Speaker 2: We'll see if the Gamecocks come up in this conversation.
- 19:54Speaker 2: I don't want this to be like all... like local
- 19:57Speaker 2: in the Carolinas. Obviously that's what we focus on the most,
- 19:59Speaker 2: the Carolinas college football. And I'm already getting people calling
- 20:02Speaker 2: out local teams that they would buy or sell, but it's,
- 20:05Speaker 2: it's just as simple. We're three weeks in, we're a
- 20:07Speaker 2: quarter of the way in to most teams, college football seasons.
- 20:10Speaker 3: Who do you, who is a buy?
- 20:12Speaker 2: If they were a stock, who are you feeling like
- 20:14Speaker 2: they're legit? Or maybe it's a team that lost a game,
- 20:17Speaker 2: but you feel like, oh, they are like Myron's buying Clemson.
- 20:20Speaker 2: Now he might be the only one, but But he
- 20:23Speaker 2: is feeling like there's an uptick coming. So it could
- 20:26Speaker 2: be a team like that that lost the game, but
- 20:29Speaker 2: you feel like there's an uptick coming. Could be a
- 20:31Speaker 2: team that's unbeaten and you're like, like Duke. I'll just
- 20:33Speaker 2: say it right now, Bone. Duke to me is a bye. Now,
- 20:38Speaker 2: some people might say they're 3-0, but not ranked. They're
- 20:45Speaker 2: still not being respected. I think they will earn respect.
- 20:49Speaker 2: And you said it the other day, and I looked
- 20:51Speaker 2: at the schedule and said, you're right. If they win
- 20:54Speaker 2: nine games for a third straight year, I'm not surprised, Bone.
- 20:57Speaker 2: They fixed that defense. And Nate Shepard is literally one
- 20:59Speaker 2: of the best players in college football, right?
- 21:03Speaker 3: I mean, he's now, if you look at the early
- 21:06Speaker 3: season top 10 Heisman list, he's on there. The list
- 21:11Speaker 3: that I read, he's not at the top, but he's 6, 7, 8.
- 21:15Speaker 3: He's getting some run there. No, I think it's about
- 21:18Speaker 3: the expectation and where Duke appears to be headed again.
- 21:22Speaker 3: It looks like they're going to end up in that
- 21:24Speaker 3: 8 or 9 win range. I thought when the year began, hey,
- 21:27Speaker 3: they can— They can get to sixth this year, man.
- 21:29Speaker 3: Based off the first two years, that's a success for expectations. But, man,
- 21:34Speaker 3: it seems like with roster turnover, he's got to the point, Mac, where...
- 21:39Speaker 3: the system is working at Duke to get them what
- 21:42Speaker 3: they need to do.
- 21:43Speaker 2: Yeah, no doubt, man. No doubt. This guy says, I'm
- 21:46Speaker 2: buying Wake. That performance on Friday had me so proud
- 21:49Speaker 2: of my Deacs. Yeah, we talked about this Monday, Bone.
- 21:52Speaker 2: They lost the game, but they won a lot of respect,
- 21:55Speaker 2: I'm sure, from people. That Deacons team, the way they
- 21:58Speaker 2: played in the second half defensively, and I know Miami
- 22:01Speaker 2: had a bunch of injuries, Tony and and Fletcher and
- 22:05Speaker 2: Josh Moore and Marty Brown, all these skilled position guys,
- 22:08Speaker 2: and two of them, Brown and Moore, are out now
- 22:09Speaker 2: for the season. But Wake Forest gave themselves a chance
- 22:12Speaker 2: to get back in this football game. They hit a
- 22:14Speaker 2: bunch of big plays offensively. So I understand Wake as
- 22:18Speaker 2: a buy.
- 22:18Speaker 3: I'm kind of with you on that.
- 22:20Speaker 2: I feel like they're going to have a season, like
- 22:22Speaker 2: you were saying with Duke, that I think people will
- 22:24Speaker 2: look at after the year and be like, damn, Jake
- 22:26Speaker 2: Dickard did it again.
- 22:27Speaker 3: You know, overachieved. Can I buy Dickard stock? Can I
- 22:30Speaker 3: buy a coach stock?
- 22:31Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 22:32Speaker 3: Him and Manny, right? Yeah, obviously. But Dickert, one of
- 22:35Speaker 3: the best young coaches in college football. I bought it
- 22:38Speaker 3: last year. I'm going to hold on to my Jake
- 22:40Speaker 3: Dickert stock right now. That dude is one of the better.
- 22:43Speaker 3: But like Manny, as you said, one of the better
- 22:47Speaker 3: coaches in the country with what he has to work with.
- 22:49Speaker 2: Definitely. So let's see. What commentary are we getting here?
- 22:52Speaker 2: I hate to say it, but sell Michigan. That's old
- 22:54Speaker 2: Stoney Harbaugh.
- 22:55Speaker 3: What?
- 22:56Speaker 2: That's Tony Harbaugh selling his unbeaten Wolverines before the Iowa game.
- 23:00Speaker 3: What we have here is an eye-opening situation.
- 23:03Speaker 2: We've got Gamecock Moody saying that Mike Shula broke Lenora Sellers.
- 23:06Speaker 3: Kendall Bryle. Bryles.
- 23:08Speaker 2: Kendall Bryle. Why did I not put an S on there?
- 23:10Speaker 2: Kendall Bryle's bone usually will get the most out of
- 23:14Speaker 2: a quarterback. So if he is still like... You know
- 23:18Speaker 2: what I mean? PTSD from last year, or you know
- 23:21Speaker 2: what I mean? Mike Shula did not progress his game.
- 23:24Speaker 2: Is there still a chance for Kendall Bryles to.
- 23:27Speaker 2: To save him or, you know, whatever the word I'm
- 23:29Speaker 2: looking for is, to make something out of this season
- 23:31Speaker 2: for Sellers.
- 23:32Speaker 3: Remember yesterday we played the audio from Beamer where it
- 23:35Speaker 3: seemed like he was not fully giving you that Sellers
- 23:39Speaker 3: is the guy the rest of the year type speech?
- 23:41Speaker 3: Kendall Bryle said yesterday, we feel very confident in our quarterback.
- 23:46Speaker 3: When Norris has played a lot of snaps, one thing
- 23:48Speaker 3: you can't buy is experience. Then here's the kicker. And
- 23:52Speaker 3: I can't wait to see him go play this week.
- 23:55Speaker 3: He'll play his butt off. I've read the words as
- 23:57Speaker 3: this week of he better play well this week. He
- 24:00Speaker 3: didn't say we trust him for the long haul. That's
- 24:04Speaker 3: our guy. Both Beamer and Bryles made it seem like
- 24:08Speaker 3: he's their guy in the moment, but neither one was
- 24:10Speaker 3: saying the words that were committing to him the rest
- 24:12Speaker 3: of the season. When he says this week, well, that's telling,
- 24:16Speaker 3: isn't it? That is interesting.
- 24:17Speaker 2: Yeah, this texter says— Can't wait to see him go
- 24:20Speaker 2: play this week. That's notable. This texter says, I hate
- 24:24Speaker 2: to say it, Sellers seems like such a good kid.
- 24:26Speaker 2: I have a bad feeling he's getting benched soon. That's
- 24:28Speaker 2: to your point. And it is a fair point. He
- 24:30Speaker 2: does seem like a really good kid. And I hate it,
- 24:32Speaker 2: but it's like, where's the progression? You have so much
- 24:34Speaker 2: physical talent. All right, anyway, let's get back to buy
- 24:36Speaker 2: or sell. We've turned this into what the heck's going on.
- 24:39Speaker 2: We've all just sold Lenora Sellers. What teams in college
- 24:43Speaker 2: football right now, if you're playing the college football stock game,
- 24:46Speaker 2: are you buying?
- 24:46Speaker 3: Which teams are you selling?
- 24:48Speaker 10: Bone?
- 24:48Speaker 3: Who are you thinking? One way or the other. Buy
- 24:50Speaker 3: or sell? Do you want to buy or sell, Mac?
- 24:51Speaker 3: I've got a bunch here. Which one do you want?
- 24:53Speaker 3: Give me a buy first. I'm buying Ole Miss as
- 24:57Speaker 3: a national championship contender.
- 24:59Speaker 11: Dang.
- 24:59Speaker 3: We knew they'd come in as good, but I'm buying
- 25:02Speaker 3: them as good enough to potentially win the whole thing.
- 25:05Speaker 3: That's my stock level right now with Ole Miss.
- 25:07Speaker 6: Dang.
- 25:08Speaker 3: But do you think they beat Florida, though, on the road?
- 25:10Speaker 9: No.
- 25:10Speaker 3: Okay. But that's the great part about college football right now.
- 25:13Speaker 3: They don't have to. Because while you're bringing that up,
- 25:15Speaker 3: I've also got– I know people are going to say, oh,
- 25:17Speaker 3: there he goes. Oh, there he goes.
- 25:18Speaker 4: He's Gator jumping. Oh, he's looking bold.
- 25:21Speaker 10: He's Mr.
- 25:21Speaker 5: Gator.
- 25:22Speaker 4: He's Mr.
- 25:22Speaker 10: Two-Bits.
- 25:23Speaker 3: I'm buying the Gators also back as a playoff contender.
- 25:27Speaker 2: How about that? That offense is potent, man. And Summerall
- 25:30Speaker 2: looks like the goods.
- 25:31Speaker 10: Oh, Mr.
- 25:31Speaker 3: Tupac's again. There he goes.
- 25:33Speaker 2: Gator bone back. Fire the music up, Finney. Can I
- 25:36Speaker 2: say this? And we got some West Virginia fans out there.
- 25:40Speaker 2: And I'm sure y'all were a part of that takeover
- 25:42Speaker 2: of our city over the weekend. I'm buying West Virginia.
- 25:46Speaker 2: I am buying West Virginia, and they got a huge
- 25:48Speaker 2: game this week against Oklahoma State. I honestly think West
- 25:51Speaker 2: Virginia can hang around and have a shot at making
- 25:53Speaker 2: the Big 12 title game. Rich Rodriguez and his zone
- 25:56Speaker 2: read is back in West Virginia. I've seen so many people. Heck,
- 26:01Speaker 2: our sales guy around here, Scott Casey, big Mountaineer fan,
- 26:03Speaker 2: he said the same thing. So many people are comparing
- 26:06Speaker 2: Michael Hawkins, the quarterback, and Cook, the running back, to
- 26:10Speaker 2: the new wave, White and Slayton.
- 26:14Speaker 3: You know? There's something about Rich Rod and West Virginia
- 26:17Speaker 3: that just works, man.
- 26:18Speaker 2: Does that zone read? They beat Virginia at their own
- 26:21Speaker 2: damn game. I mean, beat the brakes off the Hoos.
- 26:24Speaker 2: Punched them in the mouth.
- 26:25Speaker 3: Here we go. Gator Bone is back. Gator Bone is back.
- 26:28Speaker 3: Here goes Gator Bone. Gator Bone is back. Why does
- 26:31Speaker 3: Gator Bone sound like Yogi Bear? That was just my
- 26:33Speaker 3: impression of the texture of voices.
- 26:34Speaker 2: If you're not a gator, you're Gator Bate Bone.
- 26:36Speaker 3: I don't even know what this song even is. I
- 26:40Speaker 3: never heard this song before. Yeah, right. Look at Finney
- 26:43Speaker 3: conducting the gator band back there, man.
- 26:45Speaker 2: Look at him.
- 26:46Speaker 3: Look at him. Now he's gator chomping. Oh, my God.
- 26:49Speaker 2: This texter says, Bone, I'm a Gamecock fan. I was
- 26:52Speaker 2: born into it. I have no choice. You have a choice.
- 26:56Speaker 2: Run back to Florida.
- 26:58Speaker 3: I'm happy.
- 26:58Speaker 1: This Gamecock fan tried to tell you to leave. I'm
- 27:01Speaker 1: happy with my choices.
- 27:03Speaker 3: All right? Is Florida really any better than when.
- 27:07Speaker 1: I left them?
- 27:08Speaker 4: Are they, huh?
- 27:08Speaker 9: Yeah, they are.
- 27:09Speaker 3: Oh, my goodness.
- 27:10Speaker 4: Can I give you a team I'm buying?
- 27:11Speaker 3: Why would I want to root for John Summerall, Mac?
- 27:13Speaker 3: Does he seem like a coach that's going to go anywhere?
- 27:17Speaker 1: Maybe.
- 27:17Speaker 3: What do you got, Fit?
- 27:18Speaker 6: And this will kind of be a prelude to what
- 27:20Speaker 6: I think is going to happen on Saturday at the
- 27:22Speaker 6: site of game day. And what some people are calling
- 27:26Speaker 6: the de facto Orange Bowl because of a certain man
- 27:28Speaker 6: attending the game.
- 27:30Speaker 4: I'm buying Tennessee.
- 27:32Speaker 6: I know this is the first time we're going to
- 27:33Speaker 6: see Faison Brandon in a big spot.
- 27:35Speaker 2: It's interesting because I'm selling them, so I will sell
- 27:37Speaker 2: my shares to you, sir.
- 27:39Speaker 4: I will buy them from you. How much are you
- 27:41Speaker 4: selling them for?
- 27:42Speaker 3: Seven cents? Who have they played?
- 27:45Speaker 2: Georgia Tech can't beat a Colorado team that lost to
- 27:48Speaker 2: Northwestern 41-7, and that's their big win, Georgia Tech? I
- 27:54Speaker 2: just think some rocky moments for Rocky Top are coming
- 27:58Speaker 2: the rest of the way.
- 27:59Speaker 6: Maybe, but I think they're going to have one of
- 28:01Speaker 6: those kneeling moments on Saturday, first time they'll ever host
- 28:05Speaker 6: the University of Texas.
- 28:08Speaker 4: It could be wrong. I also don't know if I
- 28:11Speaker 4: trust Texas enough.
- 28:12Speaker 3: I don't know enough about Tennessee to buy or sell
- 28:14Speaker 3: right now. I need to see more. I'm holding that.
- 28:17Speaker 3: I have no idea, Fitty, right now what they are.
- 28:19Speaker 3: I'm skeptical, so I'm guessing sell. But you're right.
- 28:22Speaker 2: There's a lot of unknown. Fitty, the Vols fans are
- 28:25Speaker 2: so fired up right now with you. Let's go, Fitty. Vol, Fitty,
- 28:28Speaker 2: let's go. Max, shut the hell up. Fitty's right. We
- 28:32Speaker 2: did get a guy selling Texas, though, to your point.
- 28:34Speaker 2: This dude says, not choosing Texas, but selling Texas. This
- 28:37Speaker 2: dude said, 704 number. How about we sell the number
- 28:41Speaker 2: one team in the country? They have played one good
- 28:44Speaker 2: quarter all season. The Texas Longhorns are frauds. There is
- 28:49Speaker 2: a school of thought out there, Bone, in the national
- 28:51Speaker 2: college football media, and I think it's kind of what
- 28:53Speaker 2: Fitty's getting at when he says we don't know how
- 28:55Speaker 2: good Texas is, that they didn't look good at all
- 28:57Speaker 2: for three quarters against Ohio State, played one good quarter,
- 29:00Speaker 2: got some help from Ohio State, Didn't look good against UTSA.
- 29:04Speaker 2: I mean, Arch was like 50% against UTSA. So there
- 29:07Speaker 2: is that kind of school of thought. So, I don't know.
- 29:11Speaker 3: It's going to be an interesting game. Noon on Saturday.
- 29:13Speaker 3: Spoonie asks, how are Vols fans texting from 1997? They're back, baby!
- 29:18Speaker 6: Same way Cowboy fans don't find their way on the
- 29:20Speaker 6: text line. Mac, where are we on our team from
- 29:23Speaker 6: last week? You and I really bought in on Camario Taylor,
- 29:28Speaker 6: the Bulldogs of Mississippi State. I think I'm buying them.
- 29:31Speaker 6: I think Josh Pate said it best. They have the
- 29:34Speaker 6: chance to have a season. Their schedule is difficult, as
- 29:37Speaker 6: is for every team in the SEC. But when you
- 29:39Speaker 6: got that dude at quarterback who just went on the
- 29:42Speaker 6: road and that environment and overcame a 16-point deficit. They're
- 29:46Speaker 6: believing as much as they believe since Dak took them
- 29:48Speaker 6: to No. 1.
- 29:49Speaker 2: I think there's still a buy. Like, I saw somebody
- 29:51Speaker 2: on here say, sell Mississippi State. This rank thing is
- 29:54Speaker 2: ending this weekend. And it wasn't Willie. It wasn't Missouri Willie.
- 29:57Speaker 2: They host Missouri. I feel like, Fit, there's still a buy.
- 30:00Speaker 2: They might reach some point where it's like, I have
- 30:03Speaker 2: to unload my stock because maybe there's a ceiling to
- 30:05Speaker 2: where they can hang all year in the SEC. I
- 30:09Speaker 2: think they're getting to fighting Willie Peasebone.
- 30:12Speaker 3: I do. I do, I do, I do.
- 30:14Speaker 2: Like that environment with the Cowbells, they're going to be
- 30:17Speaker 2: going crazy. They are so pumped.
- 30:19Speaker 3: I do, I do, I do. They're so pumped after
- 30:22Speaker 3: that win last week. Missouri could get their doors blown
- 30:24Speaker 3: off in that game. You think so?
- 30:26Speaker 4: Okay.
- 30:26Speaker 2: And if they win that game, Mississippi State hosts Alabama
- 30:30Speaker 2: next week. I mean, you'll be able to hear the
- 30:32Speaker 2: Cowbells from here, bro. Think about that. Next week we
- 30:35Speaker 2: thought might be where UNC hosts Alabama. game day against
- 30:40Speaker 2: Notre Dame. That's no longer possible. And I looked at
- 30:43Speaker 2: the schedule, Matt.
- 30:43Speaker 3: There's very few options, and that, no disrespect, that is
- 30:47Speaker 3: why they were eyeing UNC Notre Dame early. That seemed
- 30:50Speaker 3: like the game for game day. But if Mississippi State's undefeated,
- 30:54Speaker 3: they're going back to Mississippi, but this time they'll be
- 30:57Speaker 3: at Starkville.
- 30:57Speaker 4: Where are we on Notre Dame, by the way?
- 31:00Speaker 3: I'm not a fan, if that's what you're trying to say.
- 31:01Speaker 6: If you look at the final score in the box score,
- 31:04Speaker 6: it would suggest that they have dominated their opponents.
- 31:06Speaker 3: That Michigan State game was closer than it ended up being.
- 31:09Speaker 4: And Wisconsin was closer to the middle of the third quarter.
- 31:11Speaker 1: It was.
- 31:12Speaker 3: But they're doing what Notre Dame does. That's kind of
- 31:15Speaker 3: what they're going to do in a lot of these games.
- 31:16Speaker 3: It's kind of where they are. Finney, are you sniffing
- 31:18Speaker 3: around for a heels upset next week?
- 31:20Speaker 5: I can't.
- 31:20Speaker 4: I'd love to pull the trigger.
- 31:22Speaker 2: Notre Dame is far from operating bone at their peak
- 31:25Speaker 2: right now. But to your point, they're just winning, right?
- 31:29Speaker 2: They've got to get that running game going a little more,
- 31:31Speaker 2: more explosives out of that running game. That defense is nasty, though. But, yeah,
- 31:35Speaker 2: they've got another couple levels to get to.
- 31:37Speaker 3: I'd hold on Notre Dame. Fiddy's girlfriend just bought Beamer
- 31:39Speaker 3: and Uber out of town. Not Finney's actual girlfriend. The
- 31:42Speaker 3: text line girlfriend. Unless that's Finney's gluten friend. I'm not sure.
- 31:45Speaker 3: It says Finney's GF.
- 31:47Speaker 2: This dude says state stock is so low that I
- 31:49Speaker 2: might actually buy him. I thought about saying buy state,
- 31:52Speaker 2: but then everybody's going to be like, well, pack Mac.
- 31:54Speaker 2: But like Dorn's going to Dorn, isn't he? Like, isn't
- 31:56Speaker 2: he going to have some good moments that will save
- 31:58Speaker 2: his job? It feels low now, but I feel like
- 32:02Speaker 2: he will do his Doran routine, mess around, go 7-5.
- 32:05Speaker 3: I am not reading the text about Belichick buying breast
- 32:08Speaker 3: reduction surgery. No, don't read that. Whatever you do, don't
- 32:13Speaker 3: read that. This is a professional, classy operation, and I'm
- 32:16Speaker 3: not reading that there, fella. Please don't. When we come back, Mackers,
- 32:20Speaker 3: we have a new segment, the premiere edition of... You're
- 32:25Speaker 3: doing too much. Who in sports, who in life is
- 32:28Speaker 3: saying too much, who's doing too much? We'll give you
- 32:31Speaker 3: ours of the week coming up. Sports Radio 92.7 WFNZ.
- 32:53Speaker 2: Sports Radio 92.7 WFNZ. Mack and Bone with you. Time
- 32:57Speaker 2: for the premiere of our brand new segment. This is
- 33:00Speaker 2: a pilot edition. Hopefully it will go well. You're doing
- 33:03Speaker 2: too much. So many people out there, sports, out there
- 33:07Speaker 2: in life in general, just doing a little bit too much.
- 33:10Speaker 2: You could argue that we do here on this show.
- 33:12Speaker 2: Doing and saying too much, really, is what it boils
- 33:14Speaker 2: down to.
- 33:14Speaker 3: That's true, too. It could go that way, too. I
- 33:16Speaker 3: will just say this.
- 33:17Speaker 2: We missed our opportunity when we were talking about what
- 33:19Speaker 2: Finney called the orange ball between Texas and Tennessee to
- 33:25Speaker 2: salute 92. He is going to be in attendance for
- 33:29Speaker 2: that game on Saturday. 92, what can we expect?
- 33:33Speaker 6: Cannot wait to get to Knoxville, get to Rocky Top.
- 33:38Speaker 4: Going to be a great game. Pay tribute to Dolly.
- 33:41Speaker 4: I love Dolly. You can figure out why.
- 33:45Speaker 6: God bless America and God bless college football.
- 33:49Speaker 3: Thank you for that, 92. Thank you for that.
- 33:51Speaker 2: You know how he's going to do his pick bone, 92,
- 33:54Speaker 2: this weekend? Whatever shade of orange he looks closer to
- 33:57Speaker 2: when he shows up at a game.
- 33:58Speaker 1: I'm sorry.
- 34:00Speaker 10: I know.
- 34:00Speaker 3: We're supposed to stay.
- 34:01Speaker 4: Love oranges.
- 34:04Speaker 1: Great for your health. They keep you awake. 92, you're
- 34:08Speaker 1: doing too much. Actually, yeah, 92 is doing too much.
- 34:11Speaker 1: I'm probably doing too much here, too. All right, let's
- 34:14Speaker 1: start with you, Bone. Who is doing too much right now?
- 34:17Speaker 1: Will Wade, I think you're doing too much and you're
- 34:19Speaker 1: saying too much, Mac. When you think of the best
- 34:23Speaker 1: inventions and creations of the last decade, there's a lot
- 34:26Speaker 1: of things that come to mind. And Will Wade, per
- 34:29Speaker 1: yesterday's presser, thinks he might be one of those things
- 34:33Speaker 1: for the way he's changing the game.
- 34:35Speaker 3: Let's hear from Will Wade.
- 34:36Speaker 5: What we're doing is unconventional. I understand that. I understand that. But,
- 34:41Speaker 5: you know, 20 years ago, you know, Airbnb was unconventional.
- 34:46Speaker 5: Everybody stayed in a hotel. 15 years ago, you rode
- 34:50Speaker 5: in a taxi everywhere. Now you take Uber. So, like,
- 34:53Speaker 5: just because it's unconventional doesn't mean it's not going to work. Now,
- 34:56Speaker 5: it may not work. If it doesn't work, write about
- 34:58Speaker 5: what an idiot I am. I understand that. But just
- 35:01Speaker 5: because it's unconventional, like I told our guys, we're going
- 35:03Speaker 5: to be unconventional, we're going to be unapologetic about it.
- 35:05Speaker 5: It is what it is. We're going to be unapologetic.
- 35:07Speaker 5: This is who we are. This is what we're doing.
- 35:08Speaker 5: This is the path that we charted. We're going to
- 35:10Speaker 5: go down it, and that's fine. But just because it's unconventional,
- 35:14Speaker 5: and hey, look, I got it. When you do stuff
- 35:16Speaker 5: that's unconventional, they're waiting for you to fail. Everybody's waiting
- 35:19Speaker 5: for us to fail. That's fine. If we fail, I
- 35:21Speaker 5: own it.
- 35:22Speaker 8: I own it.
- 35:23Speaker 5: But I felt this is the best way to try
- 35:25Speaker 5: to deliver a championship team for LSU from the jump
- 35:29Speaker 5: that gives us the best chance to jumpstart our program.
- 35:32Speaker 3: And Will Wade, you talk about the NCAA there and
- 35:34Speaker 3: the fight for his roster. Mack, Will Wade's doing too
- 35:37Speaker 3: much fighting right now with the NCAA because Isaac Trotter
- 35:41Speaker 3: on CBSSports.com the other day did a breakdown of every
- 35:44Speaker 3: power team's rotation coming up this basketball season. And right now,
- 35:50Speaker 3: LSU's top seven players, their five starters, their two lead
- 35:54Speaker 3: bench guys, are all in. in question for.
- 35:57Speaker 2: The season yeah you're doing too much of that of
- 35:59Speaker 2: the same sort of player that might not be able
- 36:01Speaker 2: to play will wade seriously.
- 36:03Speaker 3: Seven guys are in question before and by the way
- 36:06Speaker 3: uh practice starts uh real.
- 36:08Speaker 2: Soon right yeah oh absolutely yeah and he's not gonna
- 36:11Speaker 2: know who can play and who can't yeah i really.
- 36:13Speaker 3: Are not airbnb you are not doordash you are not
- 36:17Speaker 3: uber matt do you know who will wade is who's
- 36:19Speaker 3: that he's napster because what you're doing is illegal Too
- 36:23Speaker 3: much of it, and you're going to go away pretty soon.
- 36:25Speaker 2: Go away from this plan. I love that one. I
- 36:27Speaker 2: love that one right there. He is doing too much,
- 36:29Speaker 2: and I hope it fails miserably. I got to call
- 36:32Speaker 2: out the NFL schedule makers. You're doing too much. Scheduling
- 36:35Speaker 2: of the Atlanta Falcons in primetime. How do we all
- 36:39Speaker 2: sit here making this schedule saying, all right, week three,
- 36:42Speaker 2: Falcons in primetime.
- 36:43Speaker 3: Who's their quarterback? I got no idea. Those guys all suck. Okay,
- 36:46Speaker 3: week four.
- 36:47Speaker 2: Yeah, let's give them a Sunday night game week four
- 36:49Speaker 2: after a Thursday night game.
- 36:51Speaker 1: Week five, what are we going to do with the Falcons?
- 36:52Speaker 2: How about Monday night football? The next three weeks, the
- 36:55Speaker 2: Falcons are in primetime. You said it in the first
- 36:58Speaker 2: hour of the show. Any jabroni out there that's ever
- 37:01Speaker 2: watched football could have told you that team was going
- 37:03Speaker 2: to be dog-due this season.
- 37:05Speaker 4: Why on earth?
- 37:06Speaker 2: Because they've got a couple good skill position players who
- 37:09Speaker 2: can't be used when your team is complete garbage and
- 37:12Speaker 2: your quarterback is complete garbage. You're doing too much NFL,
- 37:17Speaker 2: too much scheduling of the Falcons in prime time.
- 37:19Speaker 3: Ridiculous. Yeah, you're right. It's not like they were a
- 37:22Speaker 3: team coming in where it's like, oh, my God, we
- 37:23Speaker 3: have to watch them play. We kind of knew going
- 37:25Speaker 3: in they might be in trouble, so why did you
- 37:27Speaker 3: schedule so many games for that team that wasn't.
- 37:30Speaker 2: That hot in the offseason? This happens every year. You
- 37:33Speaker 2: can see it a mile away. They schedule these teams
- 37:35Speaker 2: that stink, and usually it's big markets. What is the
- 37:38Speaker 2: infatuation the national media has every year with Atlanta?
- 37:42Speaker 4: It's annoying.
- 37:43Speaker 3: We're going to go to Phinney momentarily, but I'm going
- 37:44Speaker 3: to give you one more here. Vlad Guerrero. You're either
- 37:48Speaker 3: doing too much or you're saying too much. He caused
- 37:50Speaker 3: a stir, Mac, with the Blue Jay fans because he
- 37:53Speaker 3: did an interview with a Spanish writer in print, and
- 37:57Speaker 3: it translated to he signed a $ 500 million deal in
- 38:01Speaker 3: the offseason. He had nine homers, 56— Runs batted in
- 38:06Speaker 3: this season. But he said in the interview that he's
- 38:08Speaker 3: not paid for what he's doing now or the future.
- 38:12Speaker 3: He's paid for what he was in the past. That's
- 38:14Speaker 3: exactly what fans want to hear. And the fan base
- 38:16Speaker 3: has just revolted against those comments. Vlad Guerrero Jr., you're
- 38:20Speaker 3: saying too much. You're saying too much. And you're doing
- 38:22Speaker 3: too little at the plate, bro. Yeah, that's a rough one.
- 38:24Speaker 3: You got to keep that quiet. Like, even if you
- 38:26Speaker 3: believe that, like, I earned this contract with what I did.
- 38:29Speaker 3: How do you think the fans want to hear that?
- 38:30Speaker 2: That sounds like I don't have to even try to
- 38:32Speaker 2: do anything moving forward because I earned this money.
- 38:35Speaker 3: And he tried to clarify. That's rough. That's rough. I
- 38:39Speaker 3: think Fitty's got one, right, Mackers? You got one, Fit Daddy?
- 38:42Speaker 6: Let's turn our attention to college football last weekend when RG3.
- 38:48Speaker 6: A man that you cannot trust to tell anything disclosed
- 38:50Speaker 6: this information about the Hank Bachmeier family at BYU.
- 38:55Speaker 4: I can tell mom looks like she's taking notes there.
- 38:57Speaker 3: We should ask Bear about that next time we get
- 39:00Speaker 3: a BYU game. But he told us that at the dinners,
- 39:03Speaker 3: you know, sometimes they just... They just take their clothes off.
- 39:07Speaker 3: And they walk around naked. Do you make it at
- 39:09Speaker 3: your dinners.
- 39:10Speaker 4: Connor, with the family?
- 39:11Speaker 7: Do I have to answer that?
- 39:12Speaker 3: You don't have to answer that because I don't think
- 39:14Speaker 3: anybody listening right now really kind of does that.
- 39:17Speaker 4: America, it's up to your imagination.
- 39:20Speaker 6: Mack, I'm not one to argue about people being in
- 39:25Speaker 6: the news. You come into the world naked, you leave
- 39:28Speaker 6: the world naked sometimes.
- 39:30Speaker 10: Really?
- 39:31Speaker 4: But while you're.
- 39:32Speaker 1: Eating dinner, as a family. So like mom, dad, and
- 39:36Speaker 1: kids are all naked together? Talk about doing too much
- 39:39Speaker 1: and wearing too little.
- 39:40Speaker 4: What's in the water out there in Provo, Utah?
- 39:43Speaker 3: That's weird. I saw that and I couldn't believe.
- 39:46Speaker 2: How do they then tell RG3 that? Now, Bone thinks
- 39:50Speaker 2: RG3 is doing too much, too.
- 39:52Speaker 1: Did he have to share that? You can't tell RG3 anything.
- 39:54Speaker 1: He's like, Mac, it's going on the air. Because I'm RG3.
- 39:58Speaker 1: How did you manage to work that into the broadcast.
- 39:59Speaker 3: My guy?
- 40:00Speaker 2: That's also. They show the family shot. He's like, oh,
- 40:02Speaker 2: by the way, that family eats naked together.
- 40:05Speaker 3: So weird. I question the family and RG3.
- 40:07Speaker 6: I think we should sit in the side studio without
- 40:11Speaker 6: any clothes on and let Walker Mill walk into that today.
- 40:14Speaker 6: Whenever he just walks in, see us all three sitting there,
- 40:17Speaker 6: no clothes on.
- 40:22Speaker 3: Might be the weirdest thing. So I thought this segment
- 40:27Speaker 3: was my idea. I thought it was going okay. Colin,
- 40:32Speaker 3: I'm sorry, man. It's one episode, and I think Fitty
- 40:36Speaker 3: just ruined the segment.
- 40:36Speaker 2: We can't do a segment called You're Doing Too Much
- 40:38Speaker 2: with Fitty because Fitty will top everybody and do way
- 40:41Speaker 2: too much.
- 40:42Speaker 3: And you know what? That's on me. I said Fitty,
- 40:46Speaker 3: do the Bachmeier story.
- 40:47Speaker 10: Oh, God.
- 40:48Speaker 3: We can't give him a story that involves those things. Mac,
- 40:51Speaker 3: you got any more there?
- 40:52Speaker 2: I was going to hit McAfee up because you're working
- 40:54Speaker 2: too much, McAfee. Everywhere I turn, on my TV and
- 40:58Speaker 2: viral videos, I see you. McAfee is doing too damn much, man.
- 41:03Speaker 2: It just doesn't help him. I'm not on here hating
- 41:06Speaker 2: on him. I love the silliness. I'm never going to
- 41:09Speaker 2: knock a dude for doing a show that's silly and
- 41:11Speaker 2: fun and stuff like that. And he does a lot
- 41:13Speaker 2: of stuff like the kicks with his own money. Like,
- 41:16Speaker 2: he's got a heart with his own money. It's not
- 41:18Speaker 2: what he's doing. He's doing too much of it. He
- 41:20Speaker 2: is the epitome of you're doing too much because it's
- 41:22Speaker 2: not helping him or ESPN because people are like, oh, no,
- 41:25Speaker 2: him again.
- 41:26Speaker 3: And Stephen A., you get an honorable mention. You're not
- 41:28Speaker 3: doing quite as much, but you also do it too
- 41:29Speaker 3: damn much. Of course, a segment couldn't be a full
- 41:33Speaker 3: segment without Fitty trending there. We'll clean up. um what
- 41:36Speaker 3: just happened when we come back it's that time of
- 41:39Speaker 3: the week victory formula time the browns edition how do
- 41:44Speaker 3: the panthers get that dub dub on sunday sports radio
- 41:48Speaker 3: 92.7 mac bone and finney for now on sports radio
- 41:51Speaker 3: 92.7
