Show podcasts financially capital financial USA.com. This is the Adam gold show and for the first time any sure heads into a panther season as the play-by-play voice of the Carolina Panthers. He joins us on the Adam gold show and let's start here. Is it is a beautifully comfortable and breezy and just lovely to be around watching football outside in Spartanburg, South Carolina brought aboard right now by car Cargo bowl cried.

Not bring to prepare you for that Spartanburg cake today was not as bad as the last couple of yesterday was pretty rough, I could manage hot by mail go to the bathroom every 20 minutes because of the amount water at its we we watched Baker Mayfield allowed to the practice field on Wednesday and what what the heck is wrong with him and then the next day comes and goes.

Yet it was a bad idea yet.

I Spartanburg is just it just hits a little different as the kids say, all right, a niche, your look nobody's nobody's been to win the job for two days.

But what do you see from the two quarterbacks in them will mess around with the rest of you have a better Sam is probably what bakery bakery a couple of downfield talk every code getting guy just acclimated to practice planning Paths go on Monday will get a better sense of where the czar will get a better sense of all the proficient battles.

But as of right now exam not really privately.

Sam probably has been a leg up on Baker familiarity with not being new, having been here last year went with them back later so my judgment about a handicap ballot.

I don't think it counts for anything or make that clear out the days really, but yet Sam probably have a little bit of Baker should be a surprise. Chris McCaffrey got a maintenance either calling it look what ever gets Chris McCaffrey today. One healthy is a good thing. I don't care how it happens. I don't care if he plays no snaps in the preseason or if he plays a full game.

It doesn't matter as long as he's healthy when the season starts. I know there's a lot of optimism is so much expected of Christian but this is your first up close look at them. What have you seen today while he was a group talking to God. God look up basement franchise and practice. He looked a lot like the Christian that were used to think the lookout briefly talking to what he said is told everybody felt he would tell everybody what he did in the off-season and how we prepared now. We trained but again, your point if we can get Christian week one.

Without it, bumps and bruises. The boy that makes comes after so much more fun for the I appreciate you diving in and saying we I'm that's okay.

By the way Lisa Roth is joining us here on the Adam gold show so this is having a team of your own is new to you. So how have you approached the last few months.

How have you immersed yourself in Panthers culture. Do you have a server per tattoo. What's going on for a while.

When you think about our comes. It was not common. It's not very smart really for me right now. Just got a craving relationship. Getting to know coaches getting to know where and everybody's in and out OTA stuff going on with you so think our workshop training camp. I'm here for two weeks.

I'll do a little back-and-forth will be there every day for me to get to know coaches are personal level because my job is not just blowing the game for life connect personnel on the Panthers with by the way you mention you. You obviously responsibilities of ESPN. Congratulations on getting a partner broadcast while her right will be working with you during the college football season and I will be said is that in your contract working with rocket work with Michael Richard ready right more and I needed a quite stand on your character, so I backed up and it didn't look like rock, I'm going to need to quit 6859 meeting hold his hand up about me in the first got the high five meeting written for a high five. Maybe I'll say this way.

At least he won't make you eat a peanut butter and jelly sandwich with Duke's mayonnaise on around making very good hazing broadcast while her already. I read enough about yesterday niche or of new play-by-play men for the Carolina Panthers is joining us here in the Adam gold so I read enough about the. The performance I'll just say from yesterday. What did you see from DJ more up close fellowship with the text of anybody and Frank Look like an outlaw number one wide receiver, but it didn't matter who was yeah I know you.connected with Baker lot yesterday. I know you did well with with Sam the day before. He is the Panthers have some playmakers at the top of that list. Obviously, Chris McCaffrey, the DJ more has to be right up there and you know right below McCaffrey. If the Panthers are going to have a chance, ostensibly, has anybody stood out as another receiver. I know Robbie Anderson changed the spelling of his name. I don't know if that really matters, but I was anybody else stood out as a pass receiver one person so far. That's really jumped out but I can tell you just from conversation name player to keep your eyes on through His guidance arbitrable. There's a lot of buzz surrounding what Tommy can do now is second season with the Panthers. He was a rookie last year was sort of thrown into it after the trade of Dan Arnold and you get a lot of reps that top tight end got some serious pass catching still. These athletic guys can get dispatch problem and again we note that Mac wants to use multiple there's a lot of excitement on what Tommy trouble can be boring.

I think they can't pass catching you your partner from last year. Michael Junior went to Notre Dame and I'm sure is known about Tommy Trimble. He was a blocker at Notre Dame. He was like the third tight end at Notre Dame and it's it's funny because Ian Tom is the draft pick out of Indiana came to the Panthers as a pass catcher and now she's the blocker and the Panthers are looking at Tommy Trimble as this guy might be good and I thought his rookie season was very good even handed him the ball off a couple times last year that speaks to Tommy as an athlete new Academy because the moves is no is going to be exciting to watch.

And you're right about it and have a great rookie season, we have what 30 some odd catchers has not been in that role really is been more of a blocker how those to complement each other, especially in a lot of the 12 personnel to tighten schemes that you'll sleep in but marketers often left to be a big part of the path of success with applicable niche or any any lacrosse dentist you want to ask any lacrosse question before he let go we we placed bets every day fictitious best as we don't have money but Dennis places a bet at least every day on one lacrosse game is always somebody gives a bet also doubted it seems like every day but yeah will Manny MVP. Am I wrong Dennis that his body if you're betting across man we got we got money that is actually not real bets. Okay actually going money other there's a problem. That is my guy will manage my duties were grateful lacrosse players and carved out a really nice career got to know him will will will goal score. I confirmation the right tracks. I need to stay out of the heat. Man will talk again very soon. Thank you so much that you got a niche or off ESPN but the play-by-play man for the Carolina Panthers studio in my mantle speed through it with capital financial advisory group were talking retirement coach. I'm a simple guy but I like colors.

Tell me how I can colorcode money and get ready for retirement. I like colors to highlight your oscillographs. I don't like just buzz words, what we try to do is we try to break down all those words on your statement. All those numbers into three colors red, green, yellow people amazingly come in and most of the money is in the red cat again.

I want to read means high horsepower, potential elements high loss potential. It's a give-and-take you can want to do that or that yellow means liquid money get any time suck anything green. If you safe growth but also dig lifetime income as we get closer to retirement.

We need some green accounts with greens only call it that denigrate those important grades on support for you to next and people out of the thousand dollar value going to get together for your very own total planned as a green zone it's a traffic light.

I hope it's green for you 800-661-7383 or text Adam to 21000B through we are inside of 30 business days until the NFL season starts. We started previewing the lead with Cleveland. We went to Philadelphia, then East Rutherford yes and today the Colts played Indianapolis.

Let's go to Indy. I while you're in Indianapolis now preface this syllogism. People know when I tell you anything about the football thing is now at this point this is for giving you an idea of why you should go to Indianapolis or East Rutherford or Philadelphia or Cleveland if you happen to find yourself in those towns or cities here are things that you can do and maybe go enjoy stopover flight canceled. Now what you are stuck. Whatever may be exact.

So if you're Indianapolis or some other sport related thing to do. For example, there's the NCAA Hall of champions there is in Indiana. There is I've seen it go talk to Mark Emmert. Maybe I don't believe he's there.

He doesn't hang out of the hall and champion hat there's a hall of chomps. That's where you can find Mark Emmert ceiling. There is also a sports fan but also a movie person ankle Fieldhouse campus of Butler University where Hoosiers nice little neighborhood.

I went to a game. There when I was there to cover is either single or final four and then the Indianapolis cover both and it is a I mean an absolutely awesome.

It's not that small. Not a small as you might think what is an awesome awesome venue to watch basketball. We saw Butler take on believe it was Detroit Mercy okay is a conference game when Butler missed before the Big East, but it was absolutely awesome to be there was tremendous tremendous opportunity. Also it's real quick. We have a couple people that work in this building that work on one of her music stations located where we are valiant home base 99 fan mix 115 morning show mixed mornings. Kyle and Brian, I spoke with them there from Indiana right so I spoke with him to give me a lot of insight today okay yes they did. For example, like St. Elmo's steakhouse is talked about often. Jim Nance mentions it. The shrimp cocktail sauce is hot is often mentioned in highly recommended for mistakes or great button. I don't I don't know that I never get a steak there again.

I just just give me three orders of the shrimp cocktail and extra cocktail sauce. If you have just say you're a little stuffy order the shrimp cocktail automatic while yeah okay it's better than you like some athletes to smelling salts and frame way better than that.

I will get you going so to let these breathe righteously all my guys so delicious. Brian was actually telling me that there's a rumor or legend St. Elmo's steakhouse in the basement That Peyton Manning actually has his own spot down there that after wins in home games. He would go to the St. Elmo's steakhouse have a room down the basement where he would have a steak served to him and watch them.

It's not like Manning to bring the family out the room so we can eat and watch tape get so you have St. Elmo's cook for them steak or whatever it is from cocktail sauce. Whatever it is right by having a bourbon.

Whatever might be. Watch film after the game Tyler married and not having that in Phoenix. No England. He does not. That is all. And I did not know that I didn't know there was a downstairs and say no one blonde Peyton.

I think sexy a part owner is really I think all manner good for him. It is is a very cool it's an old school looking restaurant like a storefront. It almost looks like a store right that's got a storefront window and then there's the bar area and then the restaurant you have to walk kind of like around and then back there is not a very big place. Not a very big place and all that is a tremendous restaurant but just my my little tip.

This again final fours, and supermodels been Elmo's three times going me know like an afternoon so we would go I would go national semifinals afternoon games at like local time like 530 go at like 230 to sit at the bar from cocktail or maybe a little late maybe 330 couple of hours of the shrimp cocktail boom to the game don't need anything else for the Super Bowl did the same thing I only afternoon, don't worry about dinner rush were about not getting the table sit at the bar done I get to know good snow. Also wire there may be the famous American gangster back during the time the depression John Dillinger yes absolutely. Apparently the slippery noodle was one of his favorite places in Indianapolis. I am not not been the slippery new. Apparently the slippery noodle is one of his favorite spots. Very nice. By the way he was born on June 22. My birthday really yeah you and John Dillinger public enemy number three I outlived him. He barely got past age 30 1D yeah well Ihave is that law was always after that, yes, the law was always after and also make sure you had there during the month of May. That's when the Indianapolis 500 is, and it gets lack of better term revved up for us in the city. There are two races this weekend. I do not on the road course, there are two races at Indianapolis motor Speedway, the I think IndyCar series is tomorrow and then NASCAR. I believe a Sunday okay I believe that both racing this weekend.

All right, I could be wrong, what is today's date.

Today's tour yeah I think the 30th, 31st, if the schedules are the same. I originally thought. What was on the road course of homes on the oval, so I'm not sure how that works but yeah there everybody there is a lot of racing at Indianapolis motor Speedway. Did you also know, and I don't know if it still exist.

I think it does. But you know there is a golf course inside Indianapolis motor speed. I did not have that and the other shelf.

The champions tour used to play on this, only three holes inside the track okay but there are three holes inside the track and the rest of it is outside the track and the champions tour used to play an event just cool okay 18 often pit rolling. How does I don't I don't know how I may not.

I've not played but apparently there is a golf course and they used that golf course for a champions tour event. I hope T off of Victory Lane. I seriously having awesome of. Also, make sure you there it's drink out of a glass jar from milk out of a glass jar size and you have to drink out of a classroom where there is no way that milk would be cold enough for me to drink would be for me. I need milk, ice cold. I'm sure there's a cooler borderline like frozen.

Need I can with you. I last but not least, we should check out Long's bakery directly to locations now okay Indianapolis Longs bakery cash only Adam. I like that cash only in good old school stuff bakery that your doughnuts get some different pastries either so popular that I have a website really.

Yes, I one of those plays like you just know it. But I think that Mike and Instagram, I'm yeah I'm sure they do the member that the deli that we talk told everybody about yesterday. Yes. Is it uncle Tony's deli, they also do not have a website nice man but there ought Instagram yeah what I need photos okay you think that's take a picture. The menu I just want to know how I can actually get some of these items from my Long's bakery yeah you have cake spies roles of bread doughnuts. It's all have a special thing. I don't know, are the website out of hock. I tell I want to go back to friend jellies filling you want to get the cannoli they want the cannoli from friend jellies that I want I tell you Jack Frost doughnuts friend jellies bakery project Crosby in Cleveland friend jellies fairly taught that doughnuts in East Rutherford Long's bakery if you could place to get doughnuts yet get doughnuts in each everyone of the Sanibel city. Do we know Monday Monday. We had to have bedbug yes problem going give you a teaser to I pulled one out of the Duncans cup make use of this Dunkin' Donuts coffee cup for once. You don't drink coffee, so no need Jacksonville the tagline were staying in the state of Florida. By the way, I could tell you right now in Jacksonville there's nothing as a Hooters you Watson concert at Daly's placers okay will do that. June 19, 2006, but it all started May 6, 1997 the announcement that the Hartford whalers were coming to North Carolina transition of heartbreak. Figuring it out on the fly became 25th anniversary of the presented by the Carolina listen now. All right, now it's getting the rewind that was that was the education earlier today Dennis put out a poll question who is more likely to win their division between North Carolina and the coastal NC state in the Atlantic will give you our answers in a minute but we ask that of Luke Taconic of the news and Observer rejoices every Friday. Here's his answer. I enjoyed my conversation with Dave Clawson in Charlotte where he is. Before this was announced he was just looking through preseason mags. I had still steel prominently on the table and complaining that Sam Hermina gone from being second team all ACC at the end of last season to third or fourth email.

A lot of these preseason rankings moral ratings and and you in class against class and fashion. You know what the right there are people spying on our spring game. You have a bad practice that I miss so it was I get back.

However, I think when you look at Devon Leary. The difference between state Lake is not that anyone ever expects way to win anything wrong right stated really expected by a lot of people.

Not everybody, obviously, but to win or at least compete to win the Atlantic. I think people feel like wake may be a step behind where it usually is just based on weight returns 16 starters friend you that's great for weight that's borderline catastrophic. The way that they they they move you know, kind of move players through so I don't have a problem with it all. I don't I just counts I think he's the most explosive playmaker in the UN in the ACC at the risk of coming off as a UNC homer was all use a lot of scandal here I go, so I just found this partier okay all of that from Luke Taconic of the news and Observer.

Both teams can be really good thing about North Carolina. We have no idea their quarterbacks and no could be may write but will see. Maybe North Carolina will be better without the big target on their back.

Maybe I don't necessarily subscribe to those theories that you're better when people don't expect you right it just changes your mindset maybe gets you hungrier.

I don't know, and I am also not comp the comfortable saying that UNC didn't handle the expectations well because the expectations are placed on teams based on how we think about them, not reality, not reality. We don't know the true talent level we know the true talent level to North Carolina's input on the field we just saw wow they returned so many complete pieces they return. Sam Howell they'll be great. In the case of NC state we are in many ways just guessing. I mean I guess it's possible that they will be all that great but they do return a lot. It's all up to me it's entirely about their offense of line 100%. North Carolina's offensive line was in a good last year, I think, is arguably more important than the two running backs into wide receivers. I lost not that it's easy to replace Carter and Williams and Gianni Browning – news and those of the four stars that they lost before last year but you should your program should regenerate wide receivers and running backs on a year in year out basis in college. Very few teams should not should should hit the season like any good running backs will of any good drivers.

It did if you're a good program that's not an issue. Yeah, you should always have enough of them, unless you have been besieged by injuries.

North Carolina was not deceived by injuries last year.

Mostly I think in both teams let chance to be really good and that's important.

Pilots get to this is actually new stuff so it's it's hard to call it a rewind, but I referred to back 12 Commissioner George playoff golf earlier in the program reading in the athletic that he thinks the back 12 is you like solidly positioned for the future and bless your heart. George, because it isn't, but here's Cleon cough on essentially the expansion mindset and how it made might impact him and spending four weeks trying to defend against grenades that are logged in from every corner of the 12 to destabilize our remaining conference and I understand why they're doing it.

The relative media value between the two conferences I doubted I give either scarily wider trying to destabilize us, but I was just tired of that is probably not the most collegial thing on our side asked Jim Phillips which basically trust these people. I trust how how can there be trust among the five power five commissioners when Bob Bowles below then ran the big 12 and Mike's and Greg Sankey are in a meeting together and while Texas and Oklahoma are leaving the big 12 to go to the SEC, how does how do how can you possibly have a relationship with these people when they are actively scheming to damage you in a different border just said basically it's business, but I thought it was about relationships. Yeah, I wasn't saying, could you do business with these people. I was simply saying, can you trust them and the answer I don't care what they say the answer is no, you can't. You cannot trust them and you shouldn't trust them, which is why the alliance never had a chance because nobody is to be trusted trusted Cleon cough talked about the pack 12 whose meteorite steel is up. We were initiated or meteorites negotiations. We are in the enviable position of being next to market after the Big Ten we already have significant interest from potential partners including both incumbents and new traditional television and most importantly digital media partners. This interest is driven by the strength of our schools brands and markets a recognition of our continued leadership position in college football across the western mountain time zones with the value of premium called sports rights continuing to rise. Multiple interested media partners and limited opportunities, particularly in the west. We are confident in the long-term value of our rights. I again I can say is, bless your heart, George, I hope you're right. I don't want to pack 12 to go away.

He did take a shot. By the way at the big 12 in the first clip where I understand why the big 12 wants us gone because essentially he was insinuating that they are in a better position financially then the big 12 is I don't necessarily disagree with that but I don't think either is in great position financially. The big 12 can't replace Texas. There's just no way to replace that behemoth. I actually think the Big Ten would have an easier time replacing Ohio State in the big 12 has will have replacing Texas. I absolutely believe that that's not that Ohio State isn't just that the Big Ten has other huge popular universities after Texas and Oklahoma will stare in the big 12 so the advantage the pack 12 houses the only game in town right like this. What else is there out there in the big 12. You compete in the central time zone right pretty much all of it is in the central time zone you compete with the Big Ten. The SEC and the ACC as well as the pack 12. By the way, but you really are complete. Competing with eastern and central time zone so that's a four way split in the pack 12 nobody else out there so I can see why the Paxil feels a little bit better. Unless the big 12 takes the Arizona schools and Colorado and Utah which sort of been rumored sounded to me like Cleon cough was sort of heading that off like that ain't going to happen very possible, but that has been a rumor and it makes sense. If you are Arizona, Arizona State, Colorado, Utah, to attach yourself to a league that has a lot more teams back 12 right now is going to be 10 unless they replace USC and UCLA with lesser schools from California, so I don't know how it's all in the shakeout but if fewer Arizona Arizona State and you can attach yourself to the big 12.

You might do it and same thing with Utah and Colorado and then that would leave the pack 12 with six teams and they would be Cal Stanford, the two schools in Oregon. The two schools and washed that that is not a conference that's a division yeah in a conference, but that is not a conference actually getting be a conference in football with six teams. Yeah, they can easily state to be conference anyway. It's I don't envy either conferences position.

The ACC goes man you guys are thoughts, but tell me exactly tell me that the back 12 doesn't want to add Fresno State and Boise State will be San Diego and Boise. But then nobody wants to add Boise State. Speaking of planet Big Blue to her right gosh I hate that I was hers to watch games on it, but I don't like the coastal Carolina field leader. I feel field. I don't like eastern Washington's red file.

CNET roasts that is awful and make your eyes bleed the Cleon cough said earlier today. Also that UCLA will have a tough time in the Big Ten and he wasn't talking about on the field he was talking about, like I know them at the bank and Mike know they won't. It doesn't matter if UCLA's good to be bad to get paid. Marilyn gets paid good, but they're going to get paid. And UCLA is going to get paid by the way, the pack 12 preseason predictions Utah one Oregon two UCLA USC three UCLA four so congratulations of the Big Ten for grabbing the third and fourth best teams out of the pack 12 this is the gold shell June 19, 2000 started May 6, 1997 with the announcement that the Hartford whalers were coming to North Carolina transition of heartbreak.

Figuring it out on the fly became fifth anniversary of the presented by the Carolina listen
