Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
This is the Kyle Bailey Show, powered by Victory Chevy Charlotte,
where every month is Truck Month.

Speaker 2 (00:06):
Victory Chevy Charlotte, your Silverado Destination.

Speaker 3 (00:26):
Sports Radio seven wf N z KB and smoke with
you five o'clocker's good to have you. Really appreciate you
being with us here on a Thursday. We are still
a day away from Carolina Panthers preseason football, but it's coming.
Tomorrow's a football Friday. The smelling salts have been delivered
to Lacasa day Bailey, I'm going to have to get

(00:47):
those to Bone at some point this evening so they
can have them ready for the show tomorrow morning. But
we're all going to be all hopped up on smelling
salts for our very first football Friday of the Carolina
Panthers season coming up tomorrow. I just ran down the
hall during the break smoke and I saw something that
I am trying to find again on X and I

(01:07):
can't believe this hasn't been brought up. Probably my fault,
I will partially blame you, but oh, where was this?
I just saw the Carolina Panthers all time passing leaders
in a chart. Uh huh, Cam Newton has the most
passing yards in Carolina Panthers history. No way, he does,

(01:28):
followed by Jake dillomh. Followed by Steve Berlin. Yet four
thousand yards in a year. We'll do that, followed by
Kerry Collins. Okay, if Bryce Young has a pretty decent season,
he will likely become the fourth all time leading passer
in Panthers history.

Speaker 4 (01:47):
Like he's it. I want to say he's a fifty two.

Speaker 3 (01:50):
I'm trying to find the charts, and I want to
give credit to whoever posted this. But he's at like
fifty two hundred and some change. I think carries it
like eighty two hundred and some change. So Bryce, this
need's about thirty three hundred yards passing this year, and
he'll become the the you know, fourth on the all
time list in passing yards in Panthers history. How do
we properly contextualize that if that were to happen? What

(02:13):
do you make of that?

Speaker 5 (02:15):
A it's still young franchise. I know, I get that,
so it's kind of hard to.

Speaker 4 (02:22):
I think I got to be honest with you.

Speaker 5 (02:25):
Steve Berrline does deserve a lot more credit here from
his fan base okay for what he was able to do,
because if he wasn't here, the Carolina Panthers would have
been in a far worse situation. And I know he
never won a playoff game or anything like that, but
he was an elite backup to have. In ninety six,
when Carry Collins got hurt in New Orleans, he played two.

Speaker 6 (02:44):
And a half.

Speaker 4 (02:45):
I think he started.

Speaker 5 (02:46):
He started two games, I believe, and then Carry Collins
came back for the Vikings game. But to have that
as your insurance policy was a godsend, especially when unfortunately
Dom Caper's misread you know what Carrie was meaning by
saying he doesn't need to be the starter anymore and
left a team in ninety eight, Okay, and then it
was the perfect quarterback for George seah.

Speaker 4 (03:07):
For to have.

Speaker 5 (03:08):
It's just unfortunately by that point Steve Berlin was in
his mid thirty so immediately after that the age came
into a fact. It came into play in two thousand.
I just think it shows that up until recently, there's
never really been a long stretch of awful quarterback player.

Speaker 3 (03:25):
Yeah, no doubt, no doubt. But I'm just thinking about that.
The future redemption just said, that's sad. That's sad. I
started looking at other organizations all time passing leaders. I mean,
it really is Stark first of all the Cowboys. You know,
obviously they've been around longer, but their fourth all time

(03:45):
leading passer is Roger Staubach with twenty two seven hundred yards.

Speaker 5 (03:49):
I was going to say Romo and Prescott are probably
top two at this point, right.

Speaker 3 (03:52):
Prescott's three now now Dak pro if he stays healthy,
Dak will become the Cowboys all time passing leader this year.
Tony Romo currently has thirty four three, Troy Aikman's right
behind him at thirty two to nine, and Dak Prescott's
at thirty one to four right now, So you could.

Speaker 4 (04:10):
Pass them by at midpoint of this year, depending on them.

Speaker 3 (04:12):
If Dak Prescott throws for twenty eight hundred yards this year,
he will become the Cowboys all time leading passer.

Speaker 4 (04:17):
All right, probably two thirds mark.

Speaker 5 (04:19):
But yeah, yeah, so I think it's also you got
to contextualize it's a different era, especially for Stallback, because
I still consider Stallback the greatest quarterback in Cowboys history. Yeah,
even ahead of Aikman. But running the ball is a
lot more prevalent in that era. I mean it was
they had Tony dor Set, you know, and then in
the nineties you still had EMMITTT.

Speaker 4 (04:41):
Smith in the backfield there.

Speaker 5 (04:43):
But you know, even though I think Troytman does kind
of get overrated sometimes, I think, you know, he was
still a really good quarterback in his era.

Speaker 3 (04:52):
Let's compare it to the quote unquote sister franchise. And
you know who I'm talking about Steelers, No, Jacksonville, talking
about the Panthers.

Speaker 4 (04:58):
Oh, I thought you're talking about that.

Speaker 3 (04:59):
No, it's I'm talking about the Panthers, right, because that's
the It's not fair to compare the Panthers to the
Steelers or the Packers, right, They've been around a hell
of a lot longer, But go right to Jacksonville. So,
like I said, Kerry Collins is currently fourth all time
in passing yardage in Panthers history with just over eight
thousand yards passing.

Speaker 4 (05:17):
Who's four fall time in Jacksonville.

Speaker 3 (05:19):
Trevor Lawrence thirteen thousand eight to fifteen. Mark Brunnell is
the top the list with twenty five thousand, six ninety eight.
Blake Bortles is number two seventeen thousand, six forty six
and David Garrard at sixteen thousand and three yards Byron
left which is actually fifth on that list.

Speaker 4 (05:37):
Yeah, I figured he would be fifth.

Speaker 3 (05:38):
Yeah, Chad Henny is sixth, Gardner Minshew is seven, and
Blaine gabbertaite.

Speaker 4 (05:42):
But I mean you think the top ten, Nah, not
at all.

Speaker 3 (05:44):
But do you think about that, like, I mean, that's
the one you compare to if you want to go with,
you know who's been around the same length of time,
and it's Stark It is it?

Speaker 4 (05:54):
Really? Like Bryce? I'm sorry.

Speaker 3 (05:55):
Kerry Collins is fourth for the Panthers with eight thousand.
Trevor Lawrence is already fourth for the j Acxsible Jaguars
with basically fourteen thousand yards passing. That's why I said
contextualize that, like when you look back at the history
of Carolina Panthers quarterbacks, I mean, it's Cam, It's Jake.

Speaker 5 (06:15):
Cam, about four or five years of Jake and about
two three years of Steve. That's it and would have
been longer for Kerry, but unfortunately he had his been
you know, he had his problems, but then luckily he
was able to fix it.

Speaker 4 (06:24):
I don't think it would have been able to.

Speaker 5 (06:25):
I think he's been on you know, records saying I
don't think it was going to be fixed here because
the problem he dealt with was the fact one of
the problems he dealt with was the fact that he
was here in Charlotte, he was the biggest deal on nerve.
He goes up to New York with the Giants, people
wouldn't bug him because it's like, who is that? Oh, okay,
that's one of those things. He's like, at best, what
top tenth biggest athlete or biggest known person personality in

(06:49):
New York. And even then that defense, that team wasn't
revolved around Kerrie Collins. It was about the running game
with Tiki, and then on defense you had Michael Strahan
as the main figure in that two thousand team that
made the Super Bowl after killing the Vikings.

Speaker 3 (07:02):
Yeah, somebody said not honey, Biscuits said, now do the
Texans gladly because it's interesting?

Speaker 4 (07:07):
Two quarterbacks? That's it?

Speaker 1 (07:09):
Uh?

Speaker 3 (07:10):
Well again, I'll just go with interesting. Right, Who do
you think is a top the all time Texans passing list?
I still think shop has the record.

Speaker 4 (07:17):
You got it?

Speaker 3 (07:17):
Matt Schaub twenty three thousand two twenty one. Who do
you think is second to Shawn Yep fourteen thousand and
five thirty nine?

Speaker 4 (07:25):
Who do you think is third? That bum David Carr.

Speaker 3 (07:30):
Thirteen thousand and three ninety one, and then fourth, say Drosenthels.

Speaker 4 (07:35):
CJ.

Speaker 3 (07:35):
Stroud, Oh, c J. Stroud has already moved into fourth
all time?

Speaker 4 (07:39):
And how many years has he been in the league?
Same as Bryce?

Speaker 3 (07:42):
Same as Bryce seven thousand, eight thirty five, Yees seven
thousand and eight thirty five. So he's already fourth all
time in the Houston Texans passing all time passing lead.

Speaker 5 (07:52):
All right, let's do to Brown since nineteen ninety nine.

Speaker 3 (07:54):
I don't think I want to do that. I don't uh,
I don't think I want to do that?

Speaker 4 (07:58):
All right?

Speaker 3 (07:58):
Jordan Ronaldi just said, isn't this that's a good thing?
What's the sum of the top four or five of
each franchise. That's an interesting way to look at it,
but I don't know that it serves the purpose of
the conversation because what we're really talking about is, you
know how many quarterbacks has each respective franchise hit on quote.

Speaker 4 (08:15):
Unquote Yeah, Now I'll say this too.

Speaker 5 (08:18):
You look at a lot of teams in their expansion years,
Like for the first twenty to twenty five years, even
though this is different errors we're talking about guys, A
lot of teams struggled with their quarterbacks within the first
twenty years, expansion team or not. I mean, look at
this division that Carolina is in Atlanta. Outside of Steve Bartkowski,
it was the second best quarterback, was what Chris Chandler

(08:40):
until Michael.

Speaker 4 (08:40):
Vick got the town. Probably.

Speaker 5 (08:42):
I mean the Saints they had Archie Manning, but it
didn't really work out. They didn't want a playoff game
until the year two thousand and they'd been around since
nineteen sixty seven.

Speaker 4 (08:49):
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers, I get it. Tom Brady's to go.

Speaker 5 (08:53):
He was only there for three years and he's considered
the greatest quarterback in Buccaneers history, and they have two
Super Bowl rings outside of the late seventies and early eighties.
Like for the longest time, Doug Williams was the best
quarterback and they ran him out of town. Yeah, so
all three teams in the NFC South had had abysmal
quarterback stretches long abysmal quarterback stretches.

Speaker 4 (09:14):
For out their first twenty to twenty five years.

Speaker 3 (09:17):
TFB wants me to do the Bears real quick. I'll
do the Bears, then I'll take some phone calls. The
Bears are interesting here all time number one, Yeah, Cutler's
number one all time leading passer in Chicago Bears history.
Jay Cutler with twenty three thousand and four to forty three.
Number two on that list. I don't even think you'll
guess this one.

Speaker 4 (09:35):
Oh oh h oh, NC state.

Speaker 5 (09:37):
Legend Eric Kramer incorrect, he's sixth all time. I knew
he had a really good like ninety four, ninety five. No,
it was Steve Washton ninety four, and did Eric Kramer
ninety five? Yeah, but it was not Eric Kramer. You
want to take one more stab at it? Jim mcmhon's
too obvious to No. No, you're not kidding it at
Mitchell Trubiscus, it's not. It's Sid Luckman.

Speaker 3 (09:57):
Oh my god, Sid Luckman, who played at Columbia from
nineteen thirty six to nineteen thirty eight.

Speaker 4 (10:02):
No, it's Sid Luckman.

Speaker 3 (10:04):
He played for Chicago from nineteen thirty nine to nineteen
fifty and had fourteen thousand, six hundred career passing yard.
Do you think about the era that he played in, right,
Sid Luckman, and he's second all time on their passing list.
Jim Harbaughs third with eleven thousand, five hundred. Jim McMahon
is fourth with eleven thousand, two hundred. All right, then
you get to mister Biscuits, Mitchell Trubisky at number five

(10:25):
and Eric Kramer at number six. Who's number seven? Just
for Billy Wade, you gotta go Billy Wade, Bob Brown,
Bob Avellini. We're talking about guys who played in the
fifties and sixties. And then you get to Justin Fields
at number ten. So yeah, I mean, TFP's right, do
the Bears. It's an interesting one, no doubt about it.
Let's take some phone calls. Soprano Bob is up first
here in the five o'clock hour. What's up, Bob? I

(10:46):
was just thinking about you the other day.

Speaker 4 (10:47):
How you been good?

Speaker 1 (10:49):
I've been good, Kyle, Hey, listener. Last night, I'm in this.
I'm gonna get this has to do with the Panthers.
I'm watching Stone Cold Steve Austin doing Broken Ball. It's
on YouTube, and he's talking to a guy and this
guy was taken by Carolina in the supplemental Draft. His

(11:11):
name was Bill gold and do you know who he
actually turned out to.

Speaker 4 (11:15):
Be, Yeah, Goldberg, there you go. Yeah, I did not know.

Speaker 1 (11:19):
I did not know that Carolina took him in the
supplemental Draft.

Speaker 3 (11:24):
Really first player cutting franchise history. Yeah, yes, Smoke. Smoke
likes to drop that nugget all the time.

Speaker 1 (11:30):
Actually, what happened was is he he had torn something
in his lad, he said, and he actually walked in
and told the coach that he there's no way he
could play, and then he actually kind of got steered
into wrestling.

Speaker 2 (11:42):
But just thought it was very interesting.

Speaker 3 (11:45):
That is interesting. Now, hey, you're you're a Buffalo guy too.
Let me ask I was talking about this earlier in
the show. I don't know if you heard this or not.
I got a buddy who was originally from Western New York,
and he came over on Sunday for my son's birthday party,
and you know, works in law enforcement, but he knows
what I do and so like, one of the first
questions out of his mouth when he got to my
house was what are the bills going to do about
James Cook?

Speaker 4 (12:06):
What are you thinking about that situation? Running back.

Speaker 2 (12:09):
Well, I think with Williams being signed by the Rams
and the fact that Williams played thirty percent more than
Cook did and he had two more.

Speaker 1 (12:21):
Touchdowns than Cook did, Cook is not a third down back.
And I think that when all is said and done,
James Cook is going to sign for probably around ten
or eleven million, but he's not going to be anywhere
near his high in the sky fifteen million that he

(12:41):
thinks he's worth.

Speaker 7 (12:42):
You know.

Speaker 3 (12:43):
Yeah, well, look the word you know you got to ask.
Worst they can say is no.

Speaker 7 (12:47):
Right, Well, you.

Speaker 6 (12:49):
Know, he has no leg to stand on.

Speaker 2 (12:52):
He's got to play.

Speaker 4 (12:53):
They ca ingen.

Speaker 1 (12:53):
Franchise tagg him. He needs to stop listening to his brother,
Dalvin Cook.

Speaker 4 (12:58):
That's what he needs to do.

Speaker 3 (13:00):
Mmm, all right, Bob, That's why I asked, Bob. I'm
glad you're doing well, buddy. Thank you for the phone call. Soprano,
Bob dropping the Goldberg nugget right there. I remember the
first time I learned that. I thought that was fascinating.

Speaker 5 (13:11):
Hey debut in WCW five days before I was born.
Where does he rank to you among the all time
great wrestlers? Because he's not like Mount Rushmore? No, no,
definitely not.

Speaker 3 (13:22):
But is he like in that second tier like Michigan
State and college basketball?

Speaker 4 (13:26):
No? No, why not?

Speaker 5 (13:28):
Well, once the undefeated treat got broken that Stark ninety eight,
the four was kind of gone.

Speaker 3 (13:33):
The aura's gone for Goldberg. Yeah, dude, that spear was legendary.
Yeah it was. And also that's one area of wrestling
where I do think. I I, you know, you were
still a baby, but like me and my buddy, everybody
wanted to spear.

Speaker 4 (13:46):
Everybody, No, because Bill Goldberg.

Speaker 5 (13:48):
There was a point in ninety eight where he was
almost as hot as Stone called Steve Allas.

Speaker 3 (13:52):
Guys were getting speared between the lockers, you know, between
classes in high school.

Speaker 4 (13:55):
Yeah, a big deal.

Speaker 5 (13:56):
It's the problem was once that undefeted streak ended, WCW
didn't know what to do with them, and that played
a part in WCW collapsing and folding in March of
two thousand and one. And I just think, you know,
unfortunately with Goldberg, he's limited in certain aspects. Can't you
can't ask like the match he had for his retirement
match on Saturday Night's main event was thirteen fourteen minutes.

(14:17):
That's an average match link for a lot of at wrestlers.

Speaker 4 (14:20):
That was Kyle.

Speaker 5 (14:21):
That was the longest match he's had in the wrestling
ring since Unforgiven in two thousand and three September of
two thousand and three. We're talking twenty two years.

Speaker 3 (14:30):
I'm glad to ask you that Burnett and Pineville just
said Goldberg is an all time great. That's how I
think about him, Like I think about him as one
of the you know, the biggest names in wrestling.

Speaker 5 (14:40):
He was like, he's had had one of the one
of the biggest hot streaks in wrestling history. Unfortunately, some
of the comebacks he made in WWE Ali when he
almost broke the neck of the Undertaker in Saudi Arabia
have kind of hurt the reputation a little bit too.
And of course it doesn't help that Brett Hart hates
his guts. He said, it hurt his reputation within the
wrestling community. What it just the fact that he kept

(15:01):
on coming back and just the fact that his style
doesn't really fit the modern audience of wrestling. That and
people more people are concentrated on work rate inside the
ring than they were in the late nineties, m like
and what the the you know, work rate like how
often you wrestle No, the match and how entertaining it is. Oh, oh,
I got you that Dave Meltzer type. So I'm not

(15:22):
saying I'm like that, but it's also Goldberg is not
really my type because you kind of the cans out
of the bag and you can only do one or
two styles with him. He's not that vast in his depth.
When it comes like they.

Speaker 3 (15:35):
Didn't have him do long match, he's not doing stuff
off the top rope, like he's not coming off the
top turnbuckle doing like Ray Mysterio Testoles.

Speaker 5 (15:41):
No, Okay, I see what you're saying. It's just a
problem is you cannot really have long matches with him.
You only can have one or two style of matches
with him, and it's got to be pretty simple once
you get him out of his depths. He's kind of
like essentially the nineties version of The Ultimate Warrior. The
Ultimate Warrior was hot, but once they finally gave the
Ultimate Warrior the push in like nineteen ninety and he
was supposed to carry the torch at oulk Cogan ad

(16:04):
after winning in WrestleMania six, Business took a dip.

Speaker 4 (16:07):
Okay, that's interesting.

Speaker 5 (16:08):
I think his his peak and now hot he got
is still one of the hottest stretches in wrestling history.

Speaker 4 (16:15):
But long term, the cracks started to show more and more.

Speaker 3 (16:19):
All right, fair enough, we had a lot of people
chiming in all this on this although Randy from Orlandos saying,
wrestling talk makes me want to turn the station.

Speaker 8 (16:26):
Bro.

Speaker 3 (16:26):
This started with Goldberg being the first player cut by
the Carolina Panthers in Panthers history. We didn't just randomly
start talking wrestling. Georgia legend too. Yeah, let's go to
Panther Bow on the phone lines, Panther Bow, what's going on?

Speaker 4 (16:37):
How's Dallas?

Speaker 7 (16:38):
Hey?

Speaker 9 (16:38):
KB doing well? I appreciate you taking my call. Hey,
great work with getting the smelling salts for the morning show.
I'm looking forward to I'm looking forward to hearing that
we passed those things around before we watched the game.

Speaker 3 (16:50):
I'll bring a few at the doghouse. Let me know
when you're coming into town. I'll bring you a few
in the doghouse.

Speaker 9 (16:54):
Absolutely absolutely. I love how Mac was like, oh, I'm
gonna stort this stuff. It was like, Mac, what were
you doing in college? Mac? I mean, my god, nor
an Amumonia no, I was thinking of what was that?

Speaker 4 (17:08):
I said, So, what's going on?

Speaker 9 (17:10):
Well, I was thinking about that question, and you know,
you've got to give up something for a championship. I mean,
you know, it can't be something that you you know
it already causes your pain. So I can't be like,
well I'm gonna give up Purdue football. That wouldn't really
be fair. It can't be something that you probably should
be given up anyway. It's like, oh, I'm going to
give a white liquor and fried chicken.

Speaker 10 (17:30):
You know.

Speaker 9 (17:32):
So I'm like, well, maybe if I just like, you know,
maybe like a left pinky or you know, the right
ring on my right hand, you know, maybe maybe an
ear or you know, just go I pass take an
eye out. You just say, I'm not saying to okaybe
I don't want I don't want to catch a strain
over here. But I mean I think I really sorry
about that. But it think got really bad. I mean,
I'd be willing to just go ahead and take a

(17:52):
chunk of my brain out, to go ahead and give
me a full of bottomy. I don't think my life.
I don't think she would really notice. She'd just be
like I he's drewing a little bit more than usual,
but you know, be fine.

Speaker 3 (18:01):
But this man, this man would take a lobotomy for
a Panther super Bowl trophy. God Bo, you're a diehard.
You're a Sicko's what you are.

Speaker 9 (18:08):
Comatos Bo, just just yes, that's.

Speaker 4 (18:10):
Right, Thank you, buddy.

Speaker 3 (18:12):
Panther bow chiming in if you don't know what he's
talking about to start the show. I felt bad yes
or when I left here yesterday, because I hate when
I do a tease through a segment, like hey, stick around,
we're going to talk about this, and then I forget
to talk about that thing. And I did that yesterday,
and I'm sorry because I hate doing that. But I
had mentioned that there's one writer who wrote about the

(18:33):
Panthers making the Super Bowl. His name's Russell Baxter. He's
written about and covered the NFL for a long time.
In fact, he was on this station, these airwaves last
night with JR. Sports Brief and it wasn't anything crazy
and over the top, but he said, hey, the Panthers
are a long shot to make the super Bowl, but
they're not that long a shot. It's not that crazy
and here's why. So I asked a question, what would

(18:54):
you sacrifice to the football gods for the Panthers to
win a Lombardi Trophy? That was the question seven oh
four five, seven ninety six to ten. Feel free to
hit us up. What would you sacrifice to the football
gods for the Panthers to win a Super Bowl? You know,
and you know, the thoughtful answers were the best ones,
and we'll get to some of these and we come back.
But there were some people who said it was mean

(19:17):
LaMelo ball. They said they was sacrificed LaMelo ball for
a Panthers Super Bowl. Now I only bring that up
because we haven't talked Hornets in a couple of days
because football is back. But there was something especially interesting
that was said by Grant Williams about the Hornets this offseason,
and I want to talk about that when we come back.
We're still going to talk football. I'm going to take
your phone calls. In fact, US Marine Corp. Dave is

(19:39):
up first when we come back. Sports Radio ninety two
seven WF and Z. All Right, Tienver Justin just said, KB,

(20:03):
pretend to your sponsors aren't listening. Would you trade in
your Chevy trail Boss for a Kia soul if it
meant the Panthers will win a Super Bowl? Nah, I
don't think so. Maybe if Brandon Gandy sold it to me,
that's my answer. How about that? Because the sponsors are
always listening. And by the way, what a lot of
shade frown at teab On there? Oh crap, I forgot

(20:24):
about that. Yeah, yeah, totally, Yeah, we definitely would do
that for sure. All Right, we got some phone calls
to get to if you're wondering what we're talking about.
We opened the show with what would you sacrifice to
the football gods for a Panther Super Bowl? Cooking with
Grease just said my twelve year old son said, I'd
give up school. I'm not shocked to hear that in

(20:44):
the slightest domestic dispute and waiting sacrifice the entire Hornets
franchise for two Super Bowls. The NBA is the worst
league in professional sports, and the Hornets are the worst team.
All right, spirits are high. They just won a summer
league championship. Man, how can you beat that down on
the Hornets right now?

Speaker 6 (20:59):
Right?

Speaker 4 (21:00):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (21:00):
No, ogag, I get it before I take these phone calls.
And to pay off the ts. Grant Williams, in an
interview with Rod Boone of the Athletic sorry of The Observer,
was raving about LaMelo Ball's off season leadership and pointing
out that LaMelo Ball has been in the facility with
his teammates for the overwhelming majority of the summer and

(21:21):
putting in a lot of work and talking about how
LaMelo's been there doing the things that nobody sees, and
you know, so on and so forth, and the fact
that it's Grant Williams saying that that makes me feel good, right.
A lot of guys say things like that in the
off season. Sometimes they're true, sometimes they're only partially true.
But I don't think Grant Williams is going out of
his way to say that if it's not true. Because
Grant Williams is a you know, Providence Day alum, He's

(21:43):
a Charlotte kid. We've always felt like it really matters
to Grant Williams to be home, to be playing for
the Hornets, and you.

Speaker 4 (21:49):
Know he was.

Speaker 3 (21:51):
I know we said last year that they shouldn't have
missed him as much as they did, but they did.
I think they went like one and eleven in their
next twelve games after Grant Williams got hurt last year.
If I'm not mistaken, it was like the dam was
holding up and did right when he tore his acl Yeah. First,
So to hear Grant Williams say those things gives me
hope that you know, this could be a different Hornets
team and that LaMelo ball could be the tip of

(22:13):
this beer in ushering in that era. So I thought
i'd throw that in right there, that you know, Grant
Williams says, Hey, LaMelo has been the utmost pro and
leader this offseason. He's been around, he's been here, he's
been doing all these things behind the scenes. He's committed
to staying on the court and playing winning basketball this year.
So you know, fingers crossed, knock on wood, that that
stuff is true and that it comes to fruition that

(22:35):
it equals winning basketball for the Hornets. Now, let's go
to the phone lines US Marine cor Dave leads us
off here in this segment, Dave, what's going on, brother, Howard?

Speaker 6 (22:43):
Things cal cal I'm doing great, man. I don't want
to get distracted by your CSO story a minute ago,
because I have a fantastic TSO. Harley Davison up all
combinations story that I can tell him nother time. But
what I want to do now is combine a couple
of topics. So if the Pantners, if this will bring

(23:05):
the Carolina Panthers a Super Bowl win, I will do
a smelling salt every hour on the hour, for an
entire twenty four hours, and I will give a Rick
Flair whoa before every single one of them.

Speaker 3 (23:20):
I believe you, Like if there's any person that I believe, well, no,
but like I don't always believe that, but when you
say it, I believe it.

Speaker 7 (23:27):
Now.

Speaker 3 (23:27):
How often in the past have you ever hit a
smelling salt before? Yes, okay, you seem like a man
who has experience with smelling salts? Like how often have
you hit the smelling salts?

Speaker 7 (23:37):
Twice?

Speaker 6 (23:38):
And both times I was dropped on the back of
my head and the next thing I remembered was a
smelling salt.

Speaker 4 (23:46):
That's fair. What do you think tomorrow? Sounds like? Then?

Speaker 3 (23:49):
Like, I can't wait to hear mac on a smelling
salt on the radios.

Speaker 6 (23:53):
I'm gonna tell you it'll take your breath away, it'll
take your voice away, and and you're gonna have a
hard speaking Apple, who You're gonna have a really hard
time speaking Apple.

Speaker 4 (24:05):
Is Flair in the car with you right now? Do
you have Rick? Did you kidnap Rick Flair? Is he
is in your truck right now?

Speaker 6 (24:13):
Don't know? But I didn't meet him in Florida about
five years ago. I was actually at a bar in Tampa,
and uh, I looked over and there was Rick Flair,
and I bought him a shot of Patron and I
did a shot of Patron and we both did a
big whoa and it was just pretty crazy.

Speaker 4 (24:32):
That's great.

Speaker 6 (24:34):
Those that he's the fact that he's not a Panther's
fan that bothers me.

Speaker 4 (24:40):
It should bother you.

Speaker 3 (24:40):
Can I ask you a question before you go real quick,
because because I I in a million years, I never
thought I'd hear the words Kia, soul and Harley Davidson
in the same sentence.

Speaker 4 (24:49):
What are you talking about?

Speaker 6 (24:52):
Okay? So, when I was stationed in Hawaii and I
was on a trip to Camp Pendleton, CALIFORNI you're for work,
and my rental car was not only a Kissoul, Kyle,
it was an burnt orange colored Kissoul, and it had

(25:12):
soul written on every flat surface. You could possibly imagine.
I'm talking the head rest of the driver, the passenger
of the seats that dashed. It had so written on everything.
And I had been invited to a motorcycle rally with

(25:33):
some friends and and I'm not I want to say,
my dumb whatever, my dumb butt goes up in this
burnt orange kisso that literally had Soul written on every
flat surface in it. And I heard about it for
about four years. I still heard about it. There's still

(25:55):
people out there probably telling the story of me showing
up at a biker party with a bunch of Harley
Davidson and me and a burnt orange Kia soap.

Speaker 4 (26:05):
Okay, now I appreciate the clarification on that. Dave.

Speaker 3 (26:07):
We'll talk to you tomorrow, buddy. I appreciate you very much.
I googled it and it said that apparently there's a
Kia Soul that's been designed to resemble the Harley Davidson motorcycle.

Speaker 8 (26:18):
I go.

Speaker 4 (26:19):
I I didn't know Dave was still there. Damn. I
left him on the line. Sorry about that, Dave.

Speaker 3 (26:23):
That's all I could figure out what it was kind
of by dropping there, And thank you, Dave. Appreciate you.
Buddy Carolina. Jay up next on the phones. What's going on?

Speaker 7 (26:30):
Jay? What's going on?

Speaker 11 (26:33):
Man?

Speaker 9 (26:33):
I got a couple.

Speaker 10 (26:34):
I got a couple. But before I even said, let's
just connect the dis right, yeah, Jacksonville.

Speaker 7 (26:41):
Right, we got on first game? Right?

Speaker 10 (26:44):
So many years this the twenty fifth season, right, twenty
fifteen season.

Speaker 7 (26:48):
J C.

Speaker 6 (26:49):
Horn in a car accident, like Cam.

Speaker 10 (26:52):
Right, then you got the fight that's going on? Right,
I'm seeing the guys, And I mean, let me tell
you when I would give up. First one, I would
give up my mother's No, not my mother's, my grandmother's
sweet potato pie.

Speaker 4 (27:07):
Oh of panthers.

Speaker 3 (27:10):
Now that's that's a real sacrifice. That's what I'm talking about.
Like you're giving up something that you love for a panther.
So you would never again eat your grandmama's sweet Tata.

Speaker 10 (27:19):
Pie, never again, never again. Second one, second, one, I
would give up my barber, wouldn't have a haircut for
a whole entire year. I look like a real panther.

Speaker 4 (27:30):
Then okay, all right, Jay? Good? Oh last one? What
you got?

Speaker 7 (27:35):
Last one?

Speaker 10 (27:36):
If we win, I would walk down Try Street and
I half buttoned up Steve smooth jersey slip singing Sweet
Caroline like the national anthem, and I take the rest
off the air.

Speaker 4 (27:47):
Guys love it.

Speaker 3 (27:47):
Thank you, I appreciate you Jay very much. Let's keep
it rolling here. Back to the phone lines, we go.
Who's your Bobby's up next? Bobby? What's going on today?

Speaker 9 (27:56):
They come?

Speaker 6 (27:56):
Smoke great? Sure, today is always thank you, count. This
is one compelling question for me. Okay, I been thinking
about it all day. I thought my Steve Smith autographed
jersey that's hanging in my office. Probably not, but I
got the Bob Knight autograph picture in my office from

(28:17):
when he threw the chair a game at which I
was in attendance. Two things, I think I'd give that up.
And I think I'd shave my head and keep it
shaved until the next season.

Speaker 3 (28:28):
All right, So we're giving up the Bobby the General,
the Bobby Knight memorabilia, and a shaved head for an
entire season.

Speaker 7 (28:35):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (28:35):
And then secondly, looking forward to tomorrow morning, I mean,
Max was smelling salt.

Speaker 9 (28:41):
That's going to be epic.

Speaker 6 (28:43):
I mean, what a what a promo that should be
going forward?

Speaker 3 (28:47):
Remember the time you remember the time he fell out
of his chair mid segment? Remember that, like I imagine
it sounding something like that.

Speaker 6 (28:53):
I can't wait and for for panther Bo. We're playing
in a We're going to reunite at the Doghouse for
the offload Bill's game, so make sure you bring extra
for who's your Bobby and what only knows what that's
going to look like.

Speaker 3 (29:06):
Well, listen, I'll tell you right now. You can get
a tough of smelling salts on Amazon for twelve ninety nine.
I ordered them during a segment yesterday.

Speaker 6 (29:13):
But you're gonna bring it?

Speaker 4 (29:14):
No, Well, I gotta tell you, you know when I get back.

Speaker 3 (29:17):
You see the way that it worked out is I
gotta I gotta take these things the t Bones places
tonight because they showed up later than I hoped. So
I got to take him to t Bone so that
he can have them here in the morning and then
they'll be waiting on us when we get there or here.

Speaker 6 (29:28):
I should say, Okay, well tell you what, I'll pledge
to get the smelling sauce and I'll bring it to
the Doghouse and Bone and I'll see it up and
anybody else that wants.

Speaker 3 (29:36):
To Okay, sounds good, Bobby, Thank you, brother. I appreciate
the phone call it. I think that's a worthy sacrifice.
Also want to point out and I think who somebody
brought this up earlier today. Cam's wreck was not in
twenty fifteen, twenty fourteen.

Speaker 5 (29:52):
Yeah, yeah, I was in high school when it happened.

Speaker 3 (29:54):
Yeah, so Jay, he gave us a lot of good
stuff there, but he said, you know the Cam wreck
and now the jc REC Cam reck in the middle
of the twenty fourteen season, more towards the end of
their it.

Speaker 5 (30:03):
Was after the Saints game where they started the winning streak.
They got the four to eight to one. Derek Anderson
then came in to replace him in the Bucks because
that was the year. Derek Anderson started two games and
ironically they were both against the Bucks Buccaneers. They won
both games and then he came back for the Cleveland
game for the last two weeks and they were able
to finish it. So unfortunately that does not stand up

(30:26):
because Cam did in twenty fourteen.

Speaker 4 (30:28):
But if that's the.

Speaker 5 (30:28):
Case, uh, seven eight, seven, nine and one is the
record this year?

Speaker 4 (30:34):
Maybe yeah, Okay.

Speaker 3 (30:36):
Duson Waxhau said he'd give up playing golf and sports
betting for a fantheram The sports betting one is where
why I read the text. That's a big one for
a lot of people. If you're a gambler, would you
give up sports betting for forever for a Lombardi Trophy?
I'd love to know. Seven o four five, seven ninety
six to ten. Rod is up next on the phone lines, Rod,
what's going on?

Speaker 7 (30:57):
What's happening?

Speaker 4 (30:57):
How are you?

Speaker 11 (30:58):
Hey, guys, I'm good. Hey, listen, I'd give up Madden
for a lifetime if we get a Lombardy, no more Madden.
I'd give up Madden for life.

Speaker 7 (31:09):
Hey. And also, Kyle, you know, since we're on the subject,
I really believe we could make a playoffs. But no
haircuts for you guys till we make playoffs. How about it?
No haircuts? I don't I don't have hair, so I
can't do it.

Speaker 3 (31:22):
Oh come on, no, no, no, See, the man without
hair wants the rest of us to forego haircuts.

Speaker 7 (31:29):
No, how about it? Man, Come on, you guys get
the saggy looks.

Speaker 3 (31:33):
I can't stand it. I keep it, I keep it
high and tight. I can't stand having long hair, So
I'm going to pass.

Speaker 10 (31:38):
On that one.

Speaker 7 (31:38):
Hey. I love you both, Phil, no matter, Thank.

Speaker 3 (31:41):
You, brother, appreciate your Rod's a good phone call right there.
It's a good phone call. Jersey Mike is back. He's
up next on the phone lines, Jersey Mike, what's going
Wait a minute, did I hit I got him?

Speaker 8 (31:49):
No?

Speaker 3 (31:51):
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, Jersey Mike.
I hit the wrong button. I hit the wrong From
time to time, I'll do that. I have buttons that
I can physically press in front of me, but every
once in a while I'm lazy and I'll grab the
mouse and click on it, and every single time I
screw it up. I'm not doing that ever again. I

(32:12):
didn't fully drop.

Speaker 4 (32:13):
I just didn't want to lean forward.

Speaker 3 (32:14):
I've worked out twice today and I'm like, I'm sore,
so like I don't want to I don't want to
lean forward, but I'll do it.

Speaker 4 (32:20):
Jersey Mike. I'm sorry about that. What's going on?

Speaker 9 (32:23):
All right?

Speaker 6 (32:23):
Thank you, Kyle, appreciate it.

Speaker 12 (32:25):
I have a quick smelling salt episode and a confession
for you.

Speaker 4 (32:30):
Okay, all right.

Speaker 12 (32:31):
Now, next month I'm going home to New Jersey for
my fiftieth high school reunion.

Speaker 7 (32:37):
And in high school, I was a.

Speaker 12 (32:39):
Long distance runner and a cross country runner.

Speaker 6 (32:43):
And I was running the cross country.

Speaker 12 (32:45):
Meat and I had one hundred yards to go, and
I don't know what happened, but I passed out and
they were trying to get me gone and gave me
some smelling salt and I came back and only thing
I remember is they asked me what was my mother's
name so they could contact my mother, And all I

(33:08):
could think of was her.

Speaker 10 (33:10):
Name is mommy, Mommy.

Speaker 12 (33:18):
Now here's my confession. Actually, I pastor a Baptist church
here in Charlotte. So my favorite segment that you have
is when you bring on Corey Miller.

Speaker 4 (33:32):
Okay, I got.

Speaker 6 (33:33):
I love Corey Miller.

Speaker 12 (33:35):
I'm a Baptist pastor, and I love when he brings
the when he brings the passion and the pains, the
pastor of pain. So thank you for bringing on Corey Miller.

Speaker 4 (33:47):
Thank you.

Speaker 3 (33:48):
I appreciate the phone call. My great story. Corey is
one of my favorites. But he's one of those guests
that when he comes on, I get a few people.
Why do you bring this idiot on? Why do you
bring this stupid game cock on? And I gotta explain
it for the fiftieth time. Lots tons of people love him,
and everybody else loves to hate him. I cannot think
of a better combination for radio. Plus, he played in

(34:08):
the NFL for a decade and he played in the
SEC like he was the game Cocks SEC legend at
the SEC title game last year. I shouldn't need to
justify why I bring Corey Miller on. It speaks for itself.
But tons of people love him, so I appreciate that.
What coyote man, Oh, here's one. This dude must be
the only person in Charlotte that likes Corey Miller. Something's
wrong with this guy. Court doesn't matter what you think

(34:30):
about him. He elicits big reactions from people, and he's
entertaining and I love and he is a personal friend
of mine, and I couldn't think more highly of him
as a guy. I love traveling with him. I'm gonna
hate him on August the thirty first, or whatever it
is when we go down to Atlanta for Virginia Tech
South Carolina. But otherwise he's one of my favorite people
on the planet. And he's also one of the guys

(34:50):
that makes me look like a tiny person when I
stand next to him, and not many people do that.
All right, seven oh four, five, seven oh ninety six
to ten hit us up on the FanDuel text line
did we oh? Somebody said, Kabe, you never said what
you'd give up? Yeah, I said cold brew. I'm a
cold brew iced coffee guy. My wife tricked me into
trying it at thirty years old. I had never drank
coffee my entire life, turned my nose up at it,

(35:12):
wanted nothing to do with it. And my wife got
me to drink cold brew. And I've turned into Dan
Campbell where every day before I leave the house, I
have about thirty ounces of cold brew and a mug
and I don't leave the house without it every day.
So maybe that's not a big enough sacrifice, but you know,
my thirty ounces of coldbrew my daily routine. I'll give

(35:32):
it up for a Lombardi trophy.

Speaker 7 (35:33):
You know.

Speaker 5 (35:34):
I've never been in a coffee family, which I guess
is maybe why I've never drank coffee. So maybe there
is hope that I eventually find some sort of coffee. Yeah,
because my grandma loves it. She has it every morning,
but she has like the Folgers stuff, the old school coffee.
My mom never really got into it. I love the
smell of coffee. It's just every single time I've had coffee,
it tastes so bitter. Well, my dad's like old school

(35:54):
Southern man too. He doesn't want anything in his coffee.
Just black. That's it. He just wants it black. And
so it never looked appetizing to me. And then I
tried Colbrew and.

Speaker 3 (36:04):
I fell in love. I fell in love. All right,
let's go to smoke on the headlines. That's why you
love wives. They let you open up to new stuff.
Colbrew being one of them.

Speaker 4 (36:15):
That's it. Carolina gets a Lombardi trophy real quick.

Speaker 3 (36:18):
You can I'm gonna nerd out ukon adam asks. Do
you make it or buy it from the store? Love Colbrew?
My wife figured it out. My wife buys a big
bag of coffee beans. We bought a coffee grinder, a
bean grinder on Amazon for like thirty bucks, and every
night she grinds up the beans, and then we have
this container with a filter in it. You fill up
the filter with the coffee grinds that you grind up,

(36:41):
and then you run scalding hot water over it. Fill
up the picture and let it sit overnight, and then
the next morning boom. You got a big picture full
of colbrew and it's a hell of a lot cheaper
than buying a five dollars one at Starbucks every day.

Speaker 4 (36:52):
So there you go. Yespecially when that adds up.

Speaker 5 (36:54):
Yeah, all right, three games tonight for the NFL preseason. Yes,
even though Caroline play tomorrow. Do we got three games tonight?
Only one game will not be able to watch, that
is the Bengals against the Philadelphia Eagles, but two of
the three games will be on the NFL Network tonight,
starting at seven, as the Colts take on the Ravens.
And the Colts are going to be an interesting team

(37:14):
to watch this preseason, Kyle, because we've got a quarterback
battle between Daniel Jones and Anthony richardson the nightcap game
tonight on NFL Network. Is Pete Carroll returning to Seattle
this time of part of the Raiders as Gino Smith
returns to Seattle as well to take on the Seahawks.

Speaker 7 (37:34):
I'm excited.

Speaker 3 (37:35):
How do you think, Gino? What do you think? Give
any expectations for the Raiders this year? Pete Carroll's back
in the NFL, They're gonna be one of the bigger stories.
But I don't know if they're going to be any good.

Speaker 5 (37:44):
I think, and I'm gonna say this, gin know if
it's going to be good. But I also think he's
going to be a bridge quarterback just because I don't
think that he's going to be there for the window
to compete for the Raiders. But the fact that, you know,
the moves they made this past offseason with Brady and
Spy Tech, also with getting Pete Carroll, it's gonna change
the culture there. I think that's massive. And I think

(38:05):
Gino has got about two to three good years left. Unfortunately,
by a time the Raiders get good, I think he
won't be the quarterback.

Speaker 3 (38:11):
Okay, what else? The AFC West is extremely tough. Yeah,
you glad you said that. Have we ever had four
Hall of Fame coaches in the same division and at.

Speaker 4 (38:20):
Least three very good teams? Yeah? I don't think we.

Speaker 3 (38:24):
I mean, maybe you could come up with it. There
might be something out there that I'm forgetting. You know,
I certainly haven't been alive to watch the entirety of
NFL history, but I'm just trying to think. Have we
ever had a division where we had four legit Hall
of Fame coaches.

Speaker 5 (38:37):
I don't think so. Remember, the four division teams are
still relatively new. It got created in two thousand and two.
Before then, it was three divisions across the AFC and NFC,
So there's a lot more teams in East divisions.

Speaker 3 (38:47):
Okay, all right, anything else that sho you do it?
All right, we'll come back. We'll wrap up the show.
Sports Radio ninety two to seven WFNZ one final time

(39:21):
Sports Radio ninety two seven wf and Z. Carpetbagger just
sent me a text, Dave Teppers that you I kid,
I kid, But anyway, Carpetbager sent me a text and
he said he was very upset. He said, WTF twenty
eight maybe last year, but is there really any question
that they will be better this year? I think the
question is how much better they get? But they will

(39:42):
be better. And then I clicked on the image and
it's a screenshot of what appears to be powererankings from
NFL dot com and has the Panthers twenty eight in
the power rankings. I've never cared less about power rankings
in my life than I do right now, because I
think all of us know they haven't done anything in years.

(40:02):
In fact, they've been the laughingstock of the league on
and off for the last couple of years. At times
they've proven nothing. They got to go prove it. Have
you ever cared less about power rankings than you do
at this moment in time going into this season, Like
it's always nice to get respect, and it's probably just
one author who wrote this particular power rankings, but I

(40:23):
just simply don't care because this organization, this team has
to go show people that they can play football competently
for stretches of time before anybody's gonna have them any
Like in the top twenty five, they got to change
it themselves.

Speaker 5 (40:36):
I didn't expect them to be in the top twenty,
so not surprised, and I understand why they don't have it.
You gotta remember this is now the longest drought in
franchise history of not make the playoffs, So I get it.
There's still a stigma surrounding David Tepper, even if he
didn't do much of anything last year into public space.
So but the stereotypes are stereotypes because they've seen it happen.

(40:57):
They're not watching on a daily basis or even a
monthly basis.

Speaker 4 (41:01):
Most times.

Speaker 5 (41:01):
So I get it, and you're gonna have to prove
people wrong. That's what you're gonna have to do. So
I don't have a problem with it. Do I think
they're right? No, But I understand why they have that
because they have to offer to the whole entire league.
They can't get every nook and cranny of data put
inside their brain for all thirty two teams. So people
they're not getting clicks because they're writing about the Carolina Panthers.

(41:25):
They're getting clicks because they're riding about the Buffalo Bills.
Maybe they have a hot take about the Bills. Yeah,
maybe they have a hot take about the forty nine ers.
That's what's gonna get them clicks, not Carolina, dude, speaking
of Buffalo. We don't have time for this, but I
just mentioned it real quick. My best friend, his son
is a diehard Josh Allen fan, and so he hits
me up a couple of months ago and he's like,
I think we're gonna come down for the Bills game.

Speaker 3 (41:44):
You know what do you think? And I'm like, well,
I think you're gonna have to jump on tickets right
now because that's gonna be a hot ticket. It is
maybe the hottest ticket on the schedule, potentially maybe the Cowboys.

Speaker 5 (41:55):
But that's gonna say. But the thing with the Cowboys
is they've played here the last two years.

Speaker 3 (41:59):
Right, I mean the Buffalo Bills tickets are this it's
hard to believe, Kyle, but this is the first time
that Josh Allen, at least in a regular season game,
is playing here in Charlotte.

Speaker 4 (42:07):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (42:07):
Last year was the first time Patrick Mahomes played a
regular season game here in Charlotte. This is makes me
think of when I was a kid and how big
of a deal it was when Peyton Manning played his
first game in Charlotte's in like year nine when he
was with the Colts.

Speaker 4 (42:20):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (42:21):
Well, the funny thing was, I asked my best friend,
does like quite a minute, your kid's a Bills fan.
And he's like, yeah, he loves Josh Allen. I'm like,
all right, that makes sense. Like that, you know they
grew up, we didn't grow up near Buffalo. He was like,
he's a diehard build my kids a diehard Bills fan.
I see that man for the football as a kid,
you probably love him to death. Yeah, I was like why.
I was like, oh, Okay, he loves Josh Allen, which

(42:41):
I gotta be honest.

Speaker 4 (42:42):
I understand.

Speaker 3 (42:43):
All right, we got to catch you up on what
you've missed. It's time for the rewind. Carolina A chilly says,
I think your friend was asking for a hookup.

Speaker 4 (42:53):
KB.

Speaker 3 (42:54):
Oh, no he did. But I don't blame him. I mean,
I'm happy to help wherever I can. But you know,
the biggest thing was Bill's how all right? Earlier in
the show, Cameron Wolfe NFL Network stopped by. He's in
town as part of his training camp tour. He was
at joint practice yesterday, and here's Cameron wolf on why
the handling of Bryce Young helped gain Dave Canalis a
lot of respect from the organization.

Speaker 8 (43:15):
You get a situation like Bryce where you really get
a moment of adversity to see how you handle a
tough time, a tough decision that your quarterback, as he
said to us, didn't agree with.

Speaker 4 (43:27):
And I'm sure there were some people in the locker room.

Speaker 11 (43:29):
That did, some people that didn't.

Speaker 8 (43:30):
How do you keep people together, how do you not
created the vide how do you not lose the locker room?
How do you not lose that young quarterback, and I
think that was a very difficult challenge he had in
the second third week of season, and the way they
are trying to move past that and continue to develop
the team, I think is a tribute of their trust
and leadership. If he didn't trust the guy, you crap out,

(43:53):
you know and say hey, wait, we benched our our
young quarterback, and he ended up playing well, like what
you doing here? And I think that the way they responded,
of the way Bryce responded, I think as a testament
to maybe how he builds those individual relationships even through
tough time.

Speaker 3 (44:10):
Later in the show, and finally, Carla Metz to c
W Panthers sideline reporter, here's Carla on if Kyle Larson
has a point with his criticism of Talladega Knights.

Speaker 13 (44:20):
Well, I was gonna say, I mean, I think that
was also around the time where you know, slapstick comedies
were just getting produced, you know, just numerous ones, right,
I mean, that was the same time that Step Brothers
and all of those little pharal movies got made. I
think the biggest thing, at least from a NASCAR perspective
where they're coming from, I think is like when you
think of Nascar, Like what movie pops into your head,

(44:42):
and I think for a lot of people it probably
is Talladega Knights. That doesn't necessarily mean that you're taking
it serious or not serious.

Speaker 9 (44:48):
So there's just not that many.

Speaker 7 (44:50):
I mean, there's some good racing.

Speaker 13 (44:51):
Movies out there, but there's just not you know, outside
of Days of Thunder and some other ones.

Speaker 8 (44:56):
You know, there's just not the.

Speaker 13 (44:57):
Ones that you really like bring to the forefront of
your mind as a post to maybe.

Speaker 6 (45:00):
Some other sports.

Speaker 13 (45:01):
Maybe that's where he's coming from. I'm trying to play
Devil's advocate, he says, Yeah, I definitely don't think it.
You know, it's definitely not a representation of what NASCAR is.
But again, you know, any kind of attention in that
area I think can be good attention.

Speaker 3 (45:19):
