WEBVTT - Mac & Bone Show - Frank Garcia Interview 

0:00:00.030 --> 0:00:03.550
<v Speaker 1>But right now, let's focus a little bit on the

0:00:03.590 --> 0:00:08.500
<v Speaker 1>Panthers post-Thursday night, post, you know, the thoughts about firing

0:00:08.560 --> 0:00:12.119
<v Speaker 1>Avero and passing game coordinator Jonathan Cooley. Todd Walsh, the

0:00:12.140 --> 0:00:15.820
<v Speaker 1>D-line coach, will now be the D.C. Let's talk through

0:00:15.870 --> 0:00:18.270
<v Speaker 1>some of this stuff. I know Frank Garcia has opinions

0:00:18.470 --> 0:00:21.930
<v Speaker 1>on it and obviously knows ball, having played so many

0:00:21.950 --> 0:00:24.090
<v Speaker 1>years in the NFL, including here.

0:00:24.600 --> 0:00:25.380
<v Speaker 2>In Carolina.

0:00:25.620 --> 0:00:28.780
<v Speaker 1>And of course his years here talking about it on WFNZ,

0:00:28.860 --> 0:00:31.580
<v Speaker 1>Frank Garcia is with us on the Mac and bone show.

0:00:31.640 --> 0:00:33.300
<v Speaker 2>Frank, how you been, man? What's going on?

0:00:34.700 --> 0:00:37.560
<v Speaker 3>I'm doing good guys. Hope you're doing well. Uh, every

0:00:37.600 --> 0:00:40.720
<v Speaker 3>week's a good week when the Panthers aren't playing, they

0:00:40.740 --> 0:00:41.240
<v Speaker 3>can't lose.

0:00:41.360 --> 0:00:42.000
<v Speaker 1>It's crazy.

0:00:42.400 --> 0:00:45.430
<v Speaker 3>I'm looking forward to, you know, the conversation, but, uh,

0:00:46.080 --> 0:00:48.920
<v Speaker 3>Hopefully they can figure things out because right now they're

0:00:48.940 --> 0:00:50.620
<v Speaker 3>spiraling a little bit.

0:00:50.760 --> 0:00:51.760
<v Speaker 2>No doubt, no doubt.

0:00:52.460 --> 0:00:55.740
<v Speaker 1>Okay, so what did you think of the firing of

0:00:55.920 --> 0:01:01.220
<v Speaker 1>Jiro Avero? Was it justified, and do you think that

0:01:01.380 --> 0:01:04.190
<v Speaker 1>it can make a big difference, or do you think

0:01:04.530 --> 0:01:07.190
<v Speaker 1>it's really not going to change anything until we get healthy?

0:01:07.350 --> 0:01:07.830
<v Speaker 2>What do you think?

0:01:08.670 --> 0:01:10.150
<v Speaker 3>Well, I think a little bit of both. I mean,

0:01:10.230 --> 0:01:13.490
<v Speaker 3>obviously the Panthers' offensive line is struggling right now with

0:01:14.200 --> 0:01:16.750
<v Speaker 3>you know, their play. But I think that a lot

0:01:16.770 --> 0:01:18.670
<v Speaker 3>of that has to do with, you know, some of

0:01:18.690 --> 0:01:21.209
<v Speaker 3>the protection schemes that they've been running and, you know,

0:01:21.230 --> 0:01:23.470
<v Speaker 3>kind of teams have figured out how to beat this

0:01:23.530 --> 0:01:27.170
<v Speaker 3>team and put pressure on our quarterback. So I don't

0:01:27.290 --> 0:01:29.390
<v Speaker 3>remember if you remember the Super Bowl when Cam was

0:01:29.430 --> 0:01:31.580
<v Speaker 3>quarterback and, you know, teams kind of figured out how

0:01:31.590 --> 0:01:34.479
<v Speaker 3>to rush him. They rushed the guys wide, pressured him

0:01:34.540 --> 0:01:36.500
<v Speaker 3>up the middle, knowing that he was always going to

0:01:36.560 --> 0:01:38.940
<v Speaker 3>kind of escape one way or the other, you know,

0:01:38.980 --> 0:01:41.440
<v Speaker 3>to his right typically. and they'd run him down from

0:01:41.480 --> 0:01:44.900
<v Speaker 3>behind or corral him with those hands. And kind of

0:01:44.920 --> 0:01:47.900
<v Speaker 3>the same thing's happening with Bryce. Bryce maybe not being 100%

0:01:47.900 --> 0:01:51.550
<v Speaker 3>healthy is limiting him even more than what he's able

0:01:51.590 --> 0:01:54.990
<v Speaker 3>to do inside the pocket because of his lack of

0:01:55.030 --> 0:01:57.250
<v Speaker 3>size and able to see over the middle. So teams

0:01:57.270 --> 0:02:00.470
<v Speaker 3>are rushing him up the middle, pushing him in the middle,

0:02:00.690 --> 0:02:02.670
<v Speaker 3>and trying to force him to throw passes in the

0:02:02.690 --> 0:02:06.020
<v Speaker 3>middle because the defenses are going to take away those outsides,

0:02:06.080 --> 0:02:09.090
<v Speaker 3>and they're playing– The NFL is going to make you

0:02:09.100 --> 0:02:15.730
<v Speaker 3>play to your limitations. That's what's happening for the Panthers.

0:02:15.770 --> 0:02:18.470
<v Speaker 3>But even the protection schemes and getting back to the

0:02:18.510 --> 0:02:22.889
<v Speaker 3>coaches and watching what the Bucs did and even the Eagles,

0:02:22.960 --> 0:02:24.920
<v Speaker 3>I think the Bucs more because they play them more often.

0:02:25.380 --> 0:02:28.140
<v Speaker 3>They know when the Panthers, they were predictable when they

0:02:28.160 --> 0:02:30.440
<v Speaker 3>were going to slide a certain way. And it's a

0:02:30.460 --> 0:02:33.480
<v Speaker 3>chess match. You look at what the offensive line does.

0:02:33.560 --> 0:02:36.330
<v Speaker 3>It's a universal call. They go lucky, lucky. You want

0:02:36.350 --> 0:02:38.410
<v Speaker 3>to slide the line left, and they bring the blitz

0:02:38.450 --> 0:02:43.030
<v Speaker 3>from the right. So the Panthers aren't readjusting after the

0:02:43.419 --> 0:02:45.860
<v Speaker 3>defense is just, and they know the calls and the signs,

0:02:46.400 --> 0:02:49.400
<v Speaker 3>and they're just putting pressure on Bryce in two seconds

0:02:49.460 --> 0:02:52.820
<v Speaker 3>or less and forcing him to throw the ball. You've

0:02:52.840 --> 0:02:55.060
<v Speaker 3>got to have everybody on your P's and Q's when

0:02:55.560 --> 0:02:58.820
<v Speaker 3>it's happening that quick, and the routes can't be very

0:02:58.870 --> 0:03:01.230
<v Speaker 3>long down the field if that's going to continue to happen.

0:03:02.080 --> 0:03:05.400
<v Speaker 4>On the offensive line side of things, Frank, how surprised

0:03:05.500 --> 0:03:09.200
<v Speaker 4>are you that Rob Hunt has regressed to the point

0:03:09.220 --> 0:03:11.929
<v Speaker 4>he has so far this season, whether it's the penalties

0:03:11.970 --> 0:03:14.850
<v Speaker 4>or just overall play? We thought he was a stalwart,

0:03:14.889 --> 0:03:17.490
<v Speaker 4>but right now it appears like he's as big a

0:03:17.530 --> 0:03:19.090
<v Speaker 4>problem as anybody on the offensive line.

0:03:20.510 --> 0:03:22.570
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, he's given up a lot of pressure at the

0:03:22.630 --> 0:03:26.360
<v Speaker 3>right guard, and again, teams are going to study film,

0:03:26.600 --> 0:03:28.899
<v Speaker 3>and they're going to see him play often, and they're

0:03:28.919 --> 0:03:32.250
<v Speaker 3>going to know what moves give him the difficult challenges.

0:03:32.330 --> 0:03:34.650
<v Speaker 3>And it seems like when you play a slippery guy

0:03:34.690 --> 0:03:36.310
<v Speaker 3>that's going to be able to get into the middle

0:03:36.400 --> 0:03:40.960
<v Speaker 3>and maybe, you know, rip underneath, they're pressuring him a lot. And,

0:03:41.220 --> 0:03:43.400
<v Speaker 3>you know, the center's not doing him a lot of favors,

0:03:43.900 --> 0:03:45.600
<v Speaker 3>you know, by just kind of standing in the middle,

0:03:45.800 --> 0:03:47.940
<v Speaker 3>really doing nothing. Looks like he's out there like my

0:03:47.980 --> 0:03:50.900
<v Speaker 3>three-year-old and picking flowers and looking up in the sky

0:03:50.940 --> 0:03:54.420
<v Speaker 3>sometimes because he's not really aggressive in an active center.

0:03:55.580 --> 0:03:58.100
<v Speaker 3>So that's not Robert, you know, that's not, that's not,

0:03:59.010 --> 0:04:02.860
<v Speaker 3>The right guard is getting beat so cleanly, but he's

0:04:03.100 --> 0:04:06.300
<v Speaker 3>got to improve his play for sure, and it doesn't

0:04:06.340 --> 0:04:08.870
<v Speaker 3>help when defenses are pinning their ears back knowing that

0:04:09.150 --> 0:04:13.210
<v Speaker 3>they have an injured animal over their quarterback.

0:04:13.820 --> 0:04:18.040
<v Speaker 1>We're talking with Frank Garcia, former Panthro lineman, giving his

0:04:18.100 --> 0:04:22.400
<v Speaker 1>thoughts on what's going on. Frank, it was interesting. You

0:04:22.440 --> 0:04:26.270
<v Speaker 1>started by talking about the protection schemes and teams maybe

0:04:26.310 --> 0:04:29.440
<v Speaker 1>being able to figure them out and exploit those. So

0:04:29.500 --> 0:04:34.000
<v Speaker 1>do you think, whereas I, the untrained eye or certainly

0:04:34.120 --> 0:04:37.490
<v Speaker 1>less trained eye, I see like Rasheed Walker and it's like,

0:04:37.610 --> 0:04:40.370
<v Speaker 1>oh my God, he's getting bull rush. Oh man, he

0:04:40.430 --> 0:04:41.610
<v Speaker 1>just went to block this dude.

0:04:41.650 --> 0:04:42.070
<v Speaker 2>He went around.

0:04:42.410 --> 0:04:44.950
<v Speaker 1>Like I see, I see Monroe Freeling. It's like, oh,

0:04:44.970 --> 0:04:46.690
<v Speaker 1>he just looks like a rookie out there learning on

0:04:46.710 --> 0:04:49.239
<v Speaker 1>the job. You already brought up a couple interior guys.

0:04:49.560 --> 0:04:51.740
<v Speaker 1>So I tend to blame it on the, on the

0:04:51.900 --> 0:04:55.260
<v Speaker 1>individual players. Do you, Do you think it's more the

0:04:55.320 --> 0:04:57.700
<v Speaker 1>schemes they're being asked to run? Or I guess, I

0:04:57.720 --> 0:04:58.820
<v Speaker 1>guess you're saying it's a mix.

0:04:58.940 --> 0:05:02.570
<v Speaker 3>I guess. Yeah. I mean, definitely, you know, when you

0:05:02.589 --> 0:05:05.490
<v Speaker 3>have a backup plan, you know, and a starting position

0:05:05.610 --> 0:05:08.270
<v Speaker 3>or a rookie teams are going to lick their chops

0:05:08.370 --> 0:05:10.529
<v Speaker 3>or defensive players that have played a long time are

0:05:10.550 --> 0:05:12.810
<v Speaker 3>going to lick their chops. No. And I got a rookie.

0:05:13.070 --> 0:05:15.880
<v Speaker 3>And a lot of times the technique that rookies use are,

0:05:16.250 --> 0:05:17.880
<v Speaker 3>you know, they get away from it in college because

0:05:17.900 --> 0:05:19.460
<v Speaker 3>they can grab a guy, hold a guy and then

0:05:19.580 --> 0:05:22.240
<v Speaker 3>lock them down. When you get to the NFL, you

0:05:22.260 --> 0:05:26.000
<v Speaker 3>have to learn how to counter their counter, and they're

0:05:26.020 --> 0:05:28.610
<v Speaker 3>going to make a move. You might stop that initial move,

0:05:28.850 --> 0:05:31.110
<v Speaker 3>but they're setting you up for that second move, and

0:05:31.150 --> 0:05:34.210
<v Speaker 3>that's where rookies a lot of times get left standing

0:05:34.670 --> 0:05:37.210
<v Speaker 3>at the line of scrimmage with the guy not in

0:05:37.250 --> 0:05:40.450
<v Speaker 3>front of them because they're not using the technique that

0:05:40.490 --> 0:05:44.010
<v Speaker 3>it takes to develop that time to get out there

0:05:44.310 --> 0:05:46.619
<v Speaker 3>and get better. So, yeah, he's struggling at right tackle

0:05:46.680 --> 0:05:51.080
<v Speaker 3>for sure. The left tackle right now, he's been good

0:05:51.140 --> 0:05:54.740
<v Speaker 3>at times, but that's why he's a backup, guys. The

0:05:54.779 --> 0:05:57.880
<v Speaker 3>difference between backups and starters is the consistency in which

0:05:57.920 --> 0:06:03.590
<v Speaker 3>you play. Going out there and every play, not just dominating,

0:06:03.650 --> 0:06:07.370
<v Speaker 3>but just doing your job. When you get beat two

0:06:07.410 --> 0:06:10.750
<v Speaker 3>or three times, especially at tackle, they're glaring and they

0:06:10.800 --> 0:06:14.280
<v Speaker 3>cause sacks or pressures. That's going to be very noticeable.

0:06:15.089 --> 0:06:20.250
<v Speaker 3>I remember when the left tackle was injured right now,

0:06:20.350 --> 0:06:23.210
<v Speaker 3>Icky went out there and when he first started and

0:06:23.550 --> 0:06:26.870
<v Speaker 3>he struggled as well. So Bryce has been able to

0:06:27.070 --> 0:06:29.330
<v Speaker 3>alleviate some of that pressure by getting rid of the

0:06:29.370 --> 0:06:31.990
<v Speaker 3>ball quickly. But teams, like I said, are going to

0:06:32.050 --> 0:06:37.130
<v Speaker 3>start jamming receivers and pushing the pocket up the middle

0:06:37.710 --> 0:06:40.680
<v Speaker 3>after they're rushing those guys outside, forcing Bryce to throw

0:06:40.740 --> 0:06:43.540
<v Speaker 3>the ball quickly and And if our routes don't adjust

0:06:43.580 --> 0:06:47.100
<v Speaker 3>to those and our protection doesn't slide the right way

0:06:47.160 --> 0:06:49.700
<v Speaker 3>or pick those schemes up, then he's going to have

0:06:49.760 --> 0:06:53.280
<v Speaker 3>pressure right away. You can't win in this league solely

0:06:53.320 --> 0:06:56.920
<v Speaker 3>by going RPOs and throwing the ball. You have to

0:06:56.960 --> 0:06:58.820
<v Speaker 3>have protection. You have to have a quarterback that can

0:06:58.839 --> 0:07:02.950
<v Speaker 3>sit in the pocket. And he's digressed as well and

0:07:02.990 --> 0:07:04.969
<v Speaker 3>be able to do those things. I mean, listen, we got...

0:07:05.300 --> 0:07:07.620
<v Speaker 3>We've got a four-year sample size, four and a half

0:07:07.660 --> 0:07:10.860
<v Speaker 3>years now, of Bryce Young. He's had six, seven really,

0:07:10.900 --> 0:07:13.900
<v Speaker 3>really good games consistently. I don't think he's a part

0:07:13.920 --> 0:07:15.870
<v Speaker 3>of the problem. I think he can be a part

0:07:15.880 --> 0:07:18.530
<v Speaker 3>of the solution. But he's limited in what you can do.

0:07:18.590 --> 0:07:21.190
<v Speaker 3>He's not going to solely make guys around him better.

0:07:21.550 --> 0:07:25.570
<v Speaker 3>He needs guys to help him be better, right? And

0:07:25.590 --> 0:07:27.410
<v Speaker 3>that's the side of a good player but not a

0:07:27.450 --> 0:07:29.710
<v Speaker 3>great player, right? And that's what Bryce Young is. He's

0:07:29.730 --> 0:07:32.510
<v Speaker 3>a really, really good player at times. He's just not

0:07:32.730 --> 0:07:35.810
<v Speaker 3>a great player at times. and able to make everybody

0:07:35.870 --> 0:07:39.250
<v Speaker 3>around him better unless those things are falling in line,

0:07:39.540 --> 0:07:41.280
<v Speaker 3>and he is going to do his job at a

0:07:41.320 --> 0:07:41.760
<v Speaker 3>high level.

0:07:42.400 --> 0:07:44.860
<v Speaker 4>That is the voice of We Are Frank Garcia here

0:07:44.920 --> 0:07:46.200
<v Speaker 4>on the Mac and Bone Show.

0:07:46.220 --> 0:07:48.650
<v Speaker 2>Just bring back a legendary moment there from your.

0:07:48.570 --> 0:07:49.070
<v Speaker 1>Past, Frank.

0:07:52.380 --> 0:07:55.000
<v Speaker 3>We're going to be back in about 10 minutes.

0:07:58.400 --> 0:08:01.190
<v Speaker 2>That was all day one. That was another doozy.

0:08:01.210 --> 0:08:01.530
<v Speaker 3>Oh, gosh.

0:08:01.650 --> 0:08:04.670
<v Speaker 4>Oh, I miss it. What are your thoughts on Dave

0:08:04.750 --> 0:08:06.670
<v Speaker 4>Canales overall as a head coach?

0:08:07.970 --> 0:08:10.130
<v Speaker 3>I think he's a soft coach. I really do. You

0:08:10.170 --> 0:08:14.390
<v Speaker 3>cannot have in this league guys going out there and

0:08:14.430 --> 0:08:17.960
<v Speaker 3>making the mistakes that Evans has made at cornerback. And

0:08:17.980 --> 0:08:20.660
<v Speaker 3>I know he didn't play much this last game. you

0:08:20.720 --> 0:08:24.460
<v Speaker 3>have to have the fear of God in these guys

0:08:24.980 --> 0:08:30.120
<v Speaker 3>for at least keeping their job. And when you have

0:08:30.140 --> 0:08:33.170
<v Speaker 3>a guy that's so glaringly out of place, and I

0:08:33.230 --> 0:08:34.910
<v Speaker 3>know it, I know you guys saw it, and if

0:08:34.950 --> 0:08:37.850
<v Speaker 3>you guys can see it, everybody can see it, that

0:08:38.510 --> 0:08:41.550
<v Speaker 3>Evans didn't belong on the football field against Detroit, and

0:08:41.590 --> 0:08:43.730
<v Speaker 3>he definitely doesn't belong on the football field after that.

0:08:43.830 --> 0:08:45.110
<v Speaker 3>And the fact that he went out in the next

0:08:45.150 --> 0:08:48.280
<v Speaker 3>game and started I was shocked. I was like, if

0:08:48.320 --> 0:08:50.800
<v Speaker 3>that guy gets back on the bus, or he doesn't

0:08:50.840 --> 0:08:52.350
<v Speaker 3>just get on the bus and go home, he's not

0:08:52.370 --> 0:08:54.970
<v Speaker 3>given a ticket, and have his bags waiting outside his

0:08:55.000 --> 0:09:00.690
<v Speaker 3>locker room, then we have a country club culture in

0:09:00.730 --> 0:09:04.330
<v Speaker 3>that locker room. If you're Dave Canales, and you're going

0:09:04.350 --> 0:09:06.689
<v Speaker 3>to go out there and tell us... that you have

0:09:06.750 --> 0:09:08.970
<v Speaker 3>better options and you don't play them because that's the

0:09:09.010 --> 0:09:12.400
<v Speaker 3>guy you go out there with, you're chicken shit, right?

0:09:12.600 --> 0:09:15.520
<v Speaker 3>That's really what it is. You're chicken shit to go fire, guys. Easy.

0:09:15.540 --> 0:09:16.220
<v Speaker 4>Watch this.

0:09:17.990 --> 0:09:19.890
<v Speaker 2>Language there, Frank. Frank thought he was on the podcast.

0:09:22.350 --> 0:09:24.929
<v Speaker 2>Frank thought he was on Suits podcast there for a second.

0:09:25.530 --> 0:09:29.220
<v Speaker 2>I'm all, baby, you forget these radio rules, Frankie. We'll

0:09:29.380 --> 0:09:30.280
<v Speaker 2>be back in 10 months.

0:09:30.460 --> 0:09:34.459
<v Speaker 1>I think fans love it. I think fans would love

0:09:34.500 --> 0:09:37.020
<v Speaker 1>that you got that mad. I want to ask you

0:09:37.080 --> 0:09:41.640
<v Speaker 1>something right there, too, because it's interesting. I forget who

0:09:41.660 --> 0:09:43.780
<v Speaker 1>it was. One of the media members that was talking

0:09:43.800 --> 0:09:48.340
<v Speaker 1>about the Avero firing was wondering, like, could it have

0:09:48.400 --> 0:09:52.620
<v Speaker 1>to do in part with a Vero, like telling Dave,

0:09:53.020 --> 0:09:56.030
<v Speaker 1>I want to play Evans and, and having a guy

0:09:56.050 --> 0:09:58.050
<v Speaker 1>like Marco Wilson who played a lot better on the

0:09:58.090 --> 0:10:01.260
<v Speaker 1>practice squad, but it taking like four games to get

0:10:01.300 --> 0:10:04.620
<v Speaker 1>to him over Evans, but you're blaming Canales. Like, do you,

0:10:04.860 --> 0:10:07.540
<v Speaker 1>how does the dynamic work in locker rooms? Do you

0:10:07.580 --> 0:10:10.330
<v Speaker 1>think it's possible that, that a Vero said, Hey, I'm a,

0:10:10.620 --> 0:10:12.770
<v Speaker 1>I believe in Evans. I'm gonna keep playing them. And

0:10:12.790 --> 0:10:15.030
<v Speaker 1>Canales would let him do that. Or, or do you

0:10:15.050 --> 0:10:16.370
<v Speaker 1>think the head coach would intervene?

0:10:18.070 --> 0:10:19.750
<v Speaker 3>It could have been that or it could have been

0:10:19.790 --> 0:10:23.150
<v Speaker 3>the opposite of that. You're going to play Evans because

0:10:23.190 --> 0:10:28.650
<v Speaker 3>he's our guy. I have just not seen the fire.

0:10:28.670 --> 0:10:31.160
<v Speaker 3>I know a lot of times coaches reserve that stuff

0:10:31.179 --> 0:10:33.740
<v Speaker 3>for the locker rooms. Ron Rivera was a good example

0:10:33.800 --> 0:10:39.100
<v Speaker 3>of that. He ripped those guys sideways at practice at times.

0:10:39.929 --> 0:10:42.790
<v Speaker 3>And behind closed doors. On the sideline, he looked stoic,

0:10:42.830 --> 0:10:44.720
<v Speaker 3>and he really didn't have a lot of emotion. And,

0:10:44.730 --> 0:10:47.610
<v Speaker 3>you know, that's a sign of a– but I can

0:10:47.650 --> 0:10:49.679
<v Speaker 3>tell you, I know Ron Rivera was going to get–

0:10:49.910 --> 0:10:52.870
<v Speaker 3>I don't see that in Dave Canales. He's always patting

0:10:52.890 --> 0:10:55.790
<v Speaker 3>guys on the back, telling them it's okay. You know,

0:10:57.070 --> 0:10:59.670
<v Speaker 3>he motivates in a positive way, which is fine, but

0:10:59.730 --> 0:11:03.570
<v Speaker 3>not everybody can be motivated that way. Sometimes guys need

0:11:03.590 --> 0:11:08.420
<v Speaker 3>to be motivated by fear and discipline. This is the

0:11:08.460 --> 0:11:11.220
<v Speaker 3>worst penalized team in the NFL for the last two years.

0:11:12.059 --> 0:11:14.760
<v Speaker 3>This is not like this is a one-off where they

0:11:14.780 --> 0:11:17.040
<v Speaker 3>go out there and have– they've lost two games this

0:11:17.080 --> 0:11:20.040
<v Speaker 3>year they should have won due to penalties. That's lack

0:11:20.059 --> 0:11:23.620
<v Speaker 3>of discipline. That's lack of structure. That's lack of organizational

0:11:24.530 --> 0:11:28.190
<v Speaker 3>skills that, hey, there's no consequences when we make a mistake. Oh,

0:11:28.210 --> 0:11:30.270
<v Speaker 3>my bad. No, screw my bad. You've got to go

0:11:30.290 --> 0:11:32.430
<v Speaker 3>out there and you're going to lose your job if

0:11:32.450 --> 0:11:34.990
<v Speaker 3>you continue to make these things happen, and nobody's afraid

0:11:35.010 --> 0:11:35.709
<v Speaker 3>to lose their job.

0:11:36.679 --> 0:11:39.400
<v Speaker 1>Frank, last thing I've got to ask you about, a

0:11:39.440 --> 0:11:41.980
<v Speaker 1>couple of listeners are reminding me of this. We had

0:11:42.020 --> 0:11:43.640
<v Speaker 1>a listener text in, I don't even know if y'all

0:11:43.660 --> 0:11:45.719
<v Speaker 1>heard about this, we had a listener text in a

0:11:45.760 --> 0:11:49.210
<v Speaker 1>few weeks ago, said that their buddies lost a golf

0:11:49.250 --> 0:11:53.350
<v Speaker 1>tournament to you, Suit, Alex Hunter, and there.

0:11:53.250 --> 0:11:54.929
<v Speaker 2>Was one other guy, I don't remember who it was.

0:11:55.590 --> 0:11:57.050
<v Speaker 2>And they lost by eight shots.

0:11:57.150 --> 0:11:59.510
<v Speaker 1>And he says, my buddies are so mad they insist

0:11:59.550 --> 0:12:03.790
<v Speaker 1>they're scratch golfers. And, Frank, they are accusing you of

0:12:03.850 --> 0:12:08.630
<v Speaker 1>doing some, like, nefarious behavior and cheating.

0:12:08.690 --> 0:12:10.820
<v Speaker 2>Frank, how do you respond to that?

0:12:10.840 --> 0:12:17.120
<v Speaker 3>You know what? Play better. Play better. You know, I

0:12:17.140 --> 0:12:19.000
<v Speaker 3>take those guys out on the course with that group

0:12:19.040 --> 0:12:22.040
<v Speaker 3>that we played with. and bet them 100 a hole

0:12:22.110 --> 0:12:24.650
<v Speaker 3>if they want. I mean, whatever makes them nervous, I'll

0:12:24.690 --> 0:12:28.170
<v Speaker 3>make that bet. Because that's what happens, guys. These guys

0:12:28.210 --> 0:12:30.810
<v Speaker 3>go out there and scratch golfers until those cameras come on,

0:12:31.070 --> 0:12:34.040
<v Speaker 3>and when the cameras come on, their hands are so shaky, right?

0:12:34.080 --> 0:12:37.860
<v Speaker 3>You look like you're Joe Biden over there at the podium, right? So...

0:12:40.350 --> 0:12:42.790
<v Speaker 3>They can talk all they want about us going out

0:12:42.830 --> 0:12:47.839
<v Speaker 3>there and being nefarious. We hold out on the second

0:12:47.860 --> 0:12:50.359
<v Speaker 3>shot of the day, and it just got better from that.

0:12:50.580 --> 0:12:52.819
<v Speaker 3>You were able to buy eagles. Listen, you go to

0:12:52.840 --> 0:12:56.120
<v Speaker 3>these charity tournaments, you can buy shots, right, because of

0:12:56.160 --> 0:12:59.460
<v Speaker 3>the polls that give you things. So, Mac, listen, I've

0:12:59.480 --> 0:13:02.660
<v Speaker 3>been accused of that because, you know, guys, they can't

0:13:02.700 --> 0:13:05.060
<v Speaker 3>beat you. They accuse you of cheating, and that's the

0:13:05.100 --> 0:13:07.120
<v Speaker 3>reality of it. Oh, man.

0:13:07.179 --> 0:13:10.130
<v Speaker 2>I knew Frank would come with a good response. I

0:13:10.809 --> 0:13:12.490
<v Speaker 2>had a feeling that would be a good response.

0:13:12.530 --> 0:13:13.929
<v Speaker 4>I'm just glad you could work some golf out of

0:13:13.950 --> 0:13:14.709
<v Speaker 4>the schedule there, Frank.

0:13:14.809 --> 0:13:20.720
<v Speaker 1>Well, that's the experience. Boat's good today, man. Boat is

0:13:20.780 --> 0:13:23.540
<v Speaker 1>killing Frank. That is true, Frank. Your experience in these

0:13:23.600 --> 0:13:26.360
<v Speaker 1>tournaments is going to be a big factor, baby. Not

0:13:26.380 --> 0:13:28.550
<v Speaker 1>to mention you hitting it 700 yards, all right.

0:13:28.630 --> 0:13:31.930
<v Speaker 3>As well. Well, and they haven't seen my buddy Alex.

0:13:31.950 --> 0:13:33.310
<v Speaker 3>My buddy Alex can ton it, right?

0:13:33.330 --> 0:13:36.050
<v Speaker 2>That's what I hear, is that Alex is really freaking good.

0:13:36.070 --> 0:13:36.510
<v Speaker 3>All right.

0:13:36.570 --> 0:13:37.450
<v Speaker 2>He's a good dude, too, man.

0:13:37.470 --> 0:13:37.770
<v Speaker 3>All right.

0:13:38.230 --> 0:13:40.550
<v Speaker 1>Anyway, and Bone and I defended you when those texts

0:13:40.590 --> 0:13:41.950
<v Speaker 1>came in. I want you to know that.

0:13:41.950 --> 0:13:42.110
<v Speaker 3>100%.

0:13:42.110 --> 0:13:44.210
<v Speaker 2>All right. We banned those texters.

0:13:45.550 --> 0:13:48.350
<v Speaker 3>Yeah. You defended me, and now you're attacking me with them.

0:13:48.690 --> 0:13:50.970
<v Speaker 2>And we just stirred it up.

0:13:51.010 --> 0:13:52.870
<v Speaker 1>You know, if I can't stir it up, what am

0:13:52.950 --> 0:13:54.410
<v Speaker 1>I doing here? We're just journalists trying to get the

0:13:54.429 --> 0:13:58.770
<v Speaker 1>right answers. All right, Frank, good to talk to you, brother.

0:13:58.790 --> 0:14:01.280
<v Speaker 1>A lot of listeners are glad to hear you back

0:14:01.340 --> 0:14:03.380
<v Speaker 1>on the air, man. Appreciate it, dude. Great stuff.

0:14:03.970 --> 0:14:06.230
<v Speaker 3>All right, love you guys, and I hope I didn't

0:14:06.270 --> 0:14:08.150
<v Speaker 3>get you guys banned from the radio for about.

0:14:08.170 --> 0:14:08.960
<v Speaker 4>No, no, we're fine.

0:14:08.980 --> 0:14:10.679
<v Speaker 2>I think we're all right. So far, so good. We'll

0:14:10.700 --> 0:14:13.190
<v Speaker 2>do that ourselves. Appreciate it.

0:14:13.220 --> 0:14:13.600
<v Speaker 3>Thank you, Frank.

0:14:13.679 --> 0:14:14.230
<v Speaker 2>There you go.
